Titan A.E. Page #2

Synopsis: In the year 3028 A.D., Earth is being attacked by the Drej, which are aliens made of pure energy! The Drej mother-ship destroys Earth with an energy beam just as hundreds of space vehicles manage to escape with the last of mankind aboard! One of the escapees is Sam's young son Cale, who carries with him a ring given to him by his father. Fifteen years later, Cale works on a salvage station, eking out a rough life and hating his father for having disappeared aboard the Titan so long ago. Without a home planet, surviving humans have been reduced to outer space drifters and are constantly bullied and looked down on by other space-faring races. A human captain named Joseph Korso and his pilot Akima seek out Cale and explain that he must help them find the Titan which contains a mechanism that will create a new Earth and therefore unite all of humanity. Meanwhile, the Drej wants to find the Titan so that they can destroy it. With Korso's help, Cale discovers that the ring his father gave to

It's genetically encrypted to your|father, and therefore, to you.

It's a map, Cale.

It can tell us|where your father hid the Titan.

That's why I've spent|the last 15 years lookin' for ya.

That ship means everything.|Humanity depends on you finding it.

Me?|Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Me? No, no, no.|I'm not- Tek, listen,

there must|be someone better.

It's time, Cale.|It's time to stop running.

- Well, actually,

I think it's time|to start.

Drej.|What do they want?

They want you, kid.|Same way I want you, only dead.

How do you know|they want me dead?

I'm convinced.

We gotta get|to the kitchen.

- Korso, the gravity drive!

- You ready?|- Tek, I'll lead you in.

- I'll stay here.|- Tek, you can't.

Take care of the kid.|He's not all grown up yet.

- No, no, no, no. You're coming.|- Go, Cale. I'll read about you.

Follow me!

Whoa!

- Well, this would be good|if we had any baking to do.

Oh, my food!|You guys are- You're terrible.

You're unsanitary.|Ooh, I hope that they catch you,

and I'll test if ya gainst you,|and you'll never get out of jail.

- Hey, you'll get|all the ketchup you want.

- Drej! Ooh, I gotta go now.|- Follow ugly!

Oh, great. Yeah, no one would ever|think of looking for us in the vent.

Go!

- Go! Go!

He's the big- I'm not supposed to be here!|Come on! I'm just a cook!

How do I get out of here? How do I get|out? Why is this happening tome?

Stupid- Please- Stupid- No!

Hi. They went right down there.|They came into my kitchen and-

Bull's-eye.

We gotta|get outta here.

Go!

Go! Run!

- Over.|- Huh?

- Maybe next time, kid.|- Hey, I can fly it too.

- It won't start.

I got an idea.

Give it a shot.|Whoa!

Ow!

- Hang on, kid. I'm comin'.

Heads up!

They're|locking down the doors!

- Not going forward. Going up.|- Up?

Move it!

- You should brace yourself.|- Uh, yeah. I'm feeling that.

Eject. Hey, where's the eject?|Cale? Cale?

This model does|have eject, right?

And you were worried.

What do you mean, "were"?

- Akima, we need a pickup.|- A little late for that.

- I'm right|above you. Can you get to me?|- Not enough time.

Not-Not-|Not a lot of time.

- Exhale.|- You gotta be kidding.

- Exhale.|- Oh, no, no, no, no!

Comeback down to Earth, oh, yeah

Comeback down to Earth|Comeback down to Earth

Oh, yeah|Comeback down to Earth

- Is it dead? Can we eat it?

No, it's not dead.

Who are you?|Go away.

- Hey, what's going on?|- Preed, you're in my light.

Ah, such motherly concern|for the subject.

- Why am I naked?|- Why, you positively glow|with maternal warmth, Akima.

It's very fetching.|I must have you.

- In your dreams.|- Akrennians don't dream, remember?

- They don't bathe much, either.|- I'm still naked here.

I hadn't noticed. Now, hold still, or|you'll lose something really important.

- Hand me the probe.|- The probe? Uh,|-where does the probe go?

You know, I'm really feeling|much better. Aah! Hey!

This is just great.|Cross half the galaxy,

nearly get our butts|shot off by the Drej,

just so we can|rescue the window washer.

Hey, for your information, I happen|to be humanity's last great hope.

- I weep for the species.|- You're fine.

I mean, I'm the guy with the map here.|This is big medicine, right?

Big medicine? Let me see.

This is really it?|This can save us?

Huh? Yeah, I guess.

- Do you know what this means?

Um, I'm really wanting those pants|right about now.

Akima, my pet, if the boy isn't|at death's door,

Korso wants Gune to check the map|so we can set a course.

Do you mind?|Are we through pawing?

- This is the Valkyrie,|not a singles bar.|- We're done.

You know,|I never said I was gonna help you guys.|We never addressed what's in it for me.

- Why, you get to be a hero.|- A hero? Come on.

I mean, there must be something on the|Titan worth selling or trading or-

What? We're gonna risk our necks|to help a bunch of Drifter Colony bums?

- Where are my pants?

- Guess where Akima grew up.|- Drifter Colony?

- Yes. The boy learns.|- Wait. What's your-

Preed, wait up! Look.|Where's Korso? I wanna talk to him.

I believe he's in Navigation.|We're headed there now.

- You wanna watch|who you're steppin' on.

Or you'll what?

- Ah, the lovely and talented Stith.|This is Cale.

- You remember- Cale.|- No, no, no, no, no. Cannot talk.

We lost targeting on one|of our aft gun turrets again!

What? Think|this is a pleasure cruise?

She's a sweet little thing.|Weapons specialist.|Normally, she's very good-natured.

Great!|Things aren't bad enough!

- Tools all over the floor!|- Fight the good fight, precious.

Preed, I'll kill you. Okay?|I will kill you.

I am educated and well-read!|lam not mechanic!

- I have my pride! - Gune? Guney? Are you in there?

...by the acceleration, multiplied|by the coefficient of the friction...

and apply necessary force.

- Gune?|- Ooh.

- Look at that.|- Does this look familiar?|Do you know what it is?

Apparently, I used Gindrogac-|highly unstable.

- Gune.|- I put a button on it, yes.

I wish to press it, but I'm not sure|what will happen if I do.

- Let me see, now. Three, five,|twenty-two, seventy-four,

- eleven-

- No. Careful.

- It's perfect.|- Ho, yes!

- Hey.|- Perfect! You fixed it!

- So, where are we now?

We are here, right here-|Bellasan Quadrant.

About three million keks from Tau 14.|Why? Are you homesick?

- Gotta have a home for that.|- Mmm.

Translucent bipedal|mesomorphic embryonic male.

Yes, yes, yes. This is all very|fascinating, but take a look at this.

- It's a map. Can you read it?|- Can I read it?

Of course I can read it.|Yes. Hmm.

- So, what do you see?|- Ah!

- Yes, this is Pl'ochda.

- And this- this-|this is... Solbrecht!

And this- And this-|And this- What is this?

- That's, uh- That's lunch.|- What's lunch?

- Mmm.

Spaghetti derivative, meatballs- sort|of, anyway- and Caldoch droppings.

- Who ate it before you did?|- Hey, hey!

Ahh!

- Tell you a secret. This guy's nuts.|- Tell you another.

He's never wrong.|Where are we going, Gune?

Ahh, the broken moon|of Sesharrim.

Only 13.000 keks away.

- Have Akima lay in a course.|- We're on our way.

- What's on Sesharrim, anyway?|- The Gauol, an ancient race.

- Great.|- This isn't a joy ride, kid.

When the Drej destroyed Earth,|they figured life adrift in space...

would break us down,|wipe us out.

Do you really want|those vile creatures to be right?

-Just lay down and die?|- A little late.

About 15 years too late|to save the humans. But it's not|like we didn't have a good run.

It's not about a good run.|It's about our survival.

See, the Titan was truly visionary,|the most advanced ship in the universe.

That ship has the power to reunite|the human race, to give us a home.

And the only way to find it|is in your hand.

So, you're really|counting on me, then?

- We all are.|- Well,

if I don't like|the way things are going,

I'll show you how much|like my father I really am.

I'll leave.

Ahh, no place to|set down on the island.

Land on that coral reef.

We'll take the sled,|see if we can locate the Gauol.
