You drive the Rig!

- Hold up a flare!

- I am holding a flare!

- Closer!

- It's right in front of your eyes!

Aah!

Hut! Hut!

Blood Bag!

I am the scales of justice!

Conductor of the choir of death!

Sing, Brother Heckler.

Sing, Brother Koch!

Sing, brothers, sing! Sing!

Don't they know they're shooting at us?

Gun fever!

I never thought I'd do something

as shine as that.

How are the engines?

Very hot and real thirsty.

Hey. You need to take the War Rig

half a klick down the track.

What if you're not back by the time

the engines have cooled?

Well, you keep moving.

What do you suppose he's gonna do?

Retaliate first.

Let's go!

- Are you hurt?

- Huh?

You're bleeding.

That's not his blood.

What is this?

It's Mother's Milk.

It's okay.

Sleep.

Get some rest.

How do you know

this place even exists?

I was born there.

So why'd you leave?

I didn't.

I was taken as a child.

Stolen.

You done this before?

Many times.

Now that I drive a War Rig...

...this is the best shot I'll ever have.

And them?

They're looking for hope.

What about you?

Redemption.

Hey, what's that?

I remember something like that.

Help me!

Help me!

- Help me, please!

- Uh, uh.

Please!

That's bait.

Stay in the Rig.

Hurry! Please, hurry! They'll be back!

I am one of...

...the Vuvalini!

Of the Many Mothers!

My Initiate Mother was K.T. Concannon!

I am the daughter of Mary Jabassa.

My clan was Swaddle Dog!

It's me.

There's something in the eyes.

Perhaps it is Jabassa's child.

This is our Furiosa.

How long has it been?

Seven thousand days.

Plus the ones I don't remember.

Furiosa.

What happened to your mother?

She died.

On the third day.

From where did you come?

The West. Citadel. Beyond the mountains.

The men.

Who are they?

They're reliable.

They helped us get here.

Where did you find such creatures?

So soft.

This one has all her teeth!

Oh.

I can't wait for them to see it.

See?

See what?

Home.

The Green Place.

But if you came from the West...

...you passed it.

The crows.

The creepy place with all the crows.

- The soil.

- We had to get out.

- We had no water.

- The water was filth.

It was poisoned.

It was sour.

And then the crows came.

We couldn't grow anything.

Where are the others?

What others?

The Many Mothers.

We're the only ones left.

Look.

That's what you call a satellite.

Miss Giddy told us about those.

They used to bounce messages

across the Earth.

Shows.

Everyone in the old world

had a show.

Do you think there's still...

...somebody out there?

Sending shows?

Who knows?

Those are the Plains of Silence.

Stay right where you are, little Joe.

Kind of lost its novelty out here.

You having a baby?

Warlord Junior.

Gonna be so ugly.

It could be a girl.

You kill people with that, do you?

Killed everyone

I ever met out here.

Headshots. All of them.

Snap. Right in the medulla.

Thought somehow you girls

were above that.

Come here.

Take a peek.

Seeds.

These are from home.

Heirlooms. The real thing.

I plant one every chance I get.

Where?

So far, nothing's took.

Earth's too sour.

Aah. So many different kinds.

Trees, flowers, fruit.

Back then, everyone had their fill.

Back then,

there was no need to snap anybody.

Can I talk to you?

I've talked with the others.

We're never gonna have a better chance

to make it across the salt.

If we leave the Rig here, and load the

motorcycles up with as much as we can...

...we can maybe ride for 160 days.

One of those bikes is yours.

Fully loaded.

You're more than welcome

to come with us.

I'll make my own way.

You know, hope is a mistake.

If you can't fix what's broken, you'll, uh...

You'll go insane.

Where are you, Max?

Where are you?

Help us. You promised to help us.

Come on, Pa! Let's go.

All right.

This is your way home.

We go back?

Mm.

- Back?

- Yeah.

I thought you weren't insane anymore.

What are they saying?

He wants to go back from where they came.

The Citadel.

What's there to find at the Citadel?

Green.

And water.

There's a ridiculous amount of clear water.

And a lot of crops.

Got everything you need.

Long as you're not afraid of heights.

Where does the water come from?

He pumps it up from deep in the earth.

Calls it Aqua Cola and claims it for himself.

And because he owns it, he owns all of us.

I don't like him already.

It'll take two weeks

to skirt the Wall of Mountains.

No.

I suggest we go back

the same way we came.

Through the canyon.

It's open. We know that. Right?

He brought all his war parties through.

So we take the War Rig and we charge it

right through the middle of them.

We can decouple the tanker...

...at the pass.

Shut it off behind us.

Kaboom.

And how exactly do

we take the Citadel?

Assuming we're still alive by then.

If we can block the pass, it'll be easy.

All that's left are his War Pups

and War Boys too sick to fight.

And we'll be with Nux.

He's a War Boy.

He'll be bringing us home.

Bringing back what's stolen, as he's meant to.

Yeah.

It feels like hope.

I like this plan.

We can start again.

Just like the old days!

Look.

It'll be a hard day.

But I guarantee you

that a 160 days' ride that way...

...there's nothing but salt.

At least that way, you know,

we might be able to...

...together...

...come across some kind of redemption.

War Rig!

That's the War Rig!

That's them.

Why are they going back?

Do they wish to surrender?

They are heading for the canyon.

They're going back to the Citadel!

They know it's undefended!

Bollocks!

Roll up!

Go!

- What are you doing?

- Praying.

To who?

Anyone that's listening.

Here we go, girls!

That's mine!

He'll try to get in front of us.

Spike our wheels.

Don't blow my engine.

Gonna nudge him.

Just a little.

You filth! You traitored him!

Yeah!

Go.

Aah! Aah!

Ha!

Aah!

Gotta back off.

Engine one is gone.

Two's about to blow.

Right.

Are you a Black Thumb?

Uh-huh.

All right. Engine one. Now.

You and me. Fifth wheel.

We'll unhook the tanker.

One man, one bullet.

- I cannot see.

- Maadi! Maadi!

I can't see.

Oh.

Hey!

Harpoons and plows!

They're hauling us back!

Leave three bolts. Three.

Hey, you! Aargh!

Are you okay?

I think she's hurt.

Hey!

No!

No!

Hey.

Stay with me.

- Stay with me.

- Stay with me.

- Hey.

- Hey! Are you there?

You finish that! I'll finish her!

Unh!

Valhalla!

Aah!

Ha!

Engine one's good.

For now.

She's hurt! She's hurt...

...real bad!

Aah!

You hear that?

We're gonna see two airborne V8s.

I'm gonna need you to drive.

I'll get him out of our way.

Rictus!

Take me!

Cheedo!

- What are you doing?

- Good girl.

- Come here.

- Aah!

Aah!

Big Boy!

Aah!

Here! Here!

Unh!

Remember me?

Aah!

He's dead!

He's dead.

When you're across safe,

I'll jam the throttle and follow you.

Come on!

Hurry! We're nearly at the pass.

Witness me.

Rictus!

Why is she making that noise?

She's pumping air into her chest cavity.

She's collapsing her lungs...
