The R-12 thermal bomb.
I believe that's government property.
You're thinking, "How could he let Kobra get away
with a bomb that can incinerate half the East Side?"
Actually, I was thinking
you should meet an old friend of mine.
Hyah!
Bruce was right.
You've got the moves, kid, but you lack discipline.
And you leave yourself open on the left side.
We'll have to work on that.
Who are you?
Kairi Tanaga.
Zander is one of my advanced students.
My life is different. Ever since I was born,
I've been groomed to lead my people.
Max, this is Zander.
Who's bad? Who's rad? Who's never been had?
Whoo!
Is she always like this?
I think they were recovering ancient dinosaur DNA.
DNA and thermal bombs?
What's the connection?
Hail, Kobra.
I assure you that preparations are nearly complete.
How much more time do we have?
There's one last thing I want to do.
Zander?
Come with me. Now.
Get away from me!
Terry, get over to Max's,
and hurry!
Max?
Oh!
You're lucky.
It was just a minor concussion
and four cracked ribs.
Only four?
They'll hurt when you move.
And breathing won't be much fun, either.
Max!
Oh!
Easy. Easy.
Zander's got Max.
I recognized his car. I gotta get her.
You're in no condition.
But I'm her only hope.
Have you forgotten who you're talking to?
Bruce? You shouldn't sneak up on people like that.
Sorry. Old habit.
Another old habit.
You here for a progress report on McGinnis?
No. I need to find another of your students.
His name is Zander.
What do you want with him?
He kidnapped someone.
You look disappointed. But not surprised.
I knew I was taking a chance when I allowed him in here.
He's in some kind of cult.
I don't know which one
but they're grooming him to be their leader.
I wanted to make sure he wouldn't abuse the power.
So you figured you'd teach him Bushido.
He needed a code. A philosophy.
A sense of right and wrong.
It worked for the samurai warriors.
But obviously not for Zander.
All I have for him is this phone number.
Haven't you ever been wrong?
They're using a blocking code
to keep the phone number from being traced.
There's got to be a way around it.
How are the ribs?
Well, I'm trying not to move around,
but I still can't figure out
what to do about the breathing thing.
What do you know about this cult Zander's in?
He wouldn't talk about it. It was a big secret.
I never should have introduced him to Max.
Don't blame yourself.
Why not? It's my fault.
I know. But blaming's not productive.
Wait.
It looks like the decoding program's getting through.
Kobra.
Where do you think you're going? To get Max.
As soon as you find the address that goes with the phone number.
What about your breathing problem?
I'll breathe on the weekend.
Oh. Oh.
When you arrived here,
your clothes were torn.
Were you involved in some sort of scuffle?
You might say that.
Who are you?
Your servants.
The master told us to stay with you until you awakened.
The master?
Oh, let me guess.
Zander? May he live forever.
You gonna tell me where we are?
The master will answer all your questions.
Can you at least tell me why it's so hot in here?
Air conditioning broke?
What's so funny?
It's not hot in here. This is normal.
Tell that to my antiperspirant.
Please, the master wants to see you.
What if I don't want to see him?
No one refuses him.
This is hopeless.
Hyah!
Oh!
You overgrown iguana.
Let go of me.
You have no right to...
Max.
I've been waiting for you.
Don't be afraid.
You have to make friends with them.
I did.
Uh!
Maybe...
Maybe if I knew a little more about them. And you.
Yes. You'll need to.
I'll start at the beginning.
The very beginning.
My DNA was synthesized in a laboratory
50 meters from here.
My first nine months were spent
in an artificial womb.
All the nutrients I received
were carefully monitored and purified.
From early childhood,
I had nearly round-the-clock tutoring.
I was trained in a multitude of military strategies,
as well as martial arts and advanced weaponry.
Everything Kobra did for me had one goal:
To make me their perfect leader.
Well?
They should have made a girlfriend for you.
She wouldn't be like you.
Yeah, but you wouldn't have needed to kidnap her.
It's an honor to be brought to the leader of Kobra.
I don't care if you're the leader of the whole free world.
You're nothing but a crook to me.
I told you it would never work.
I'll have her eliminated.
No. I like her.
She's so different from these mindless automatons
I'm surrounded by.
She's... She's a person.
That's the problem.
Doctor,
what I want, I get.
I double-checked that address you gave me.
It's a toxic waste company.
Or so they say.
Can you think of a better way
to make people want to avoid it?
Call it a high school?
Oh!
What you don't seem to understand
is that I'm offering you the future.
The future?
If this guy's any indication,
all you got to offer is the past.
About a hundred million years of it.
Dinosaurs once ruled the world.
They had strength, size...
But they weren't too swift in the adaptability department,
were they? No.
That's where humans came in.
For years we've been working on ways
to combine human DNA with dinosaurs.
The goal is to create a life form
that will dominate the world for the next million years.
I think I get it now.
You do?
Yeah. You're crazy. All of you.
Certifiable, in need of medication.
You think I'm deluded?
Come with me.
Just in time.
Ugh! Where's some body lotion when you need it?
This is serious! You think it's hot in here now?
Wait till that thermal bomb goes off.
What do you think that will accomplish?
It'll start a chain reaction
that'll raise the temperature of the planet.
Because reptiles are cold-blooded
and you'll need the extra heat.
Exactly.
And what do you think that heat will do to the human race?
I'm giving you a chance to survive.
Your only chance.
As a lizard?
Thanks, but no thanks.
You'll feel differently... later.
The rewiring's done.
It's ready to be detonated.
If you'll excuse me.
Splice her.
I'm telling you, it's a big mistake.
She's rude, she's sarcastic
and she has absolutely no respect.
Gotta be Max.
Careful what you say, doctor.
You might be taking orders from her someday.
Believe me, that's not the kind of woman
you want to share your life with.
But when the splicing's done,
she won't really be just a woman anymore, will she?
Get that away from me!
Get it away!
Ah! Oh! The ribs.
Sorry.
Nice outfit.
Yeah. Next to your pal, Zander,
you seem almost normal.
What was he trying to do to you?
Turn me into a dinosaur. What?
I'll explain later.
Earthquake?
We're not waiting around to find out.
Stand back.
This is not good.
As soon as I get you down from here,
I can come back in the Batmobile and...
Wait. The bomb.
I forgot. What about it?
They're going to... Hey!
Ah! Oh!
Oh!
Huh...? Whoa!
Oh!
What I was trying to tell you before,
they're getting ready to set off the bomb.
Where is it? I don't know.
But the control room's that way.
Oh, come on, you're not gonna make me...
Yes, I am. Got a problem with it?
Only the same one I always have.
It looks so peaceful, doesn't it?
Hasn't erupted in over 2000 years.
Who'd ever know that it's standing right on top
of a rift that goes halfway to the Earth's core?
Everyone will know, as soon as we drop that.
Once you do, there's no turning back.
The magma will come to the surface and...
Doctor, this is the moment
I've been trained for all my life.
I am more than ready.
The mammals have had their chance.
Now, it's the age of Kobra.
Ah!
Have you thought about what you're doing?
This will be the end of the world.
Your world, you mean.
It's yours too.
Oh! Ooh!
These people tried to raise you
without family or friends or love.
But you couldn't get along without those things.
You're right. It was my weakness.
Hyah!
Oh!
Huh?
Why isn't it working?
I... I don't know.
The control module.
The bomb has been deactivated.
I failed you, Zander.
I thought I could put you on the right path.
Failed me?
You've destroyed me.
Without the heat from that bomb,
how long do you think I'll be able to survive like this?
You've chosen your own path, kid.
Hyah!
You really don't like the cold, do you?
Ah! Oh!
Ha!
Look out!
The escape pods!
This one's taken.
Kind of cold in here now, isn't it?
But I guess you've already noticed.
They've got escape pods.
I saw them when I sneaked in. They're down there.
I'll meet you there.
I gotta find someone first.
Oh!
Max?
Max!
Max? Max?
Over here!
What took you...?
Where's Kairi?
Would that be her?
He's behind you! Run!
Too late. Keep your guard up, kid.
Particularly on your left side.
She was a good teacher.
The best.
Chilly.
Feels good.
