Captain Planet: The power is yours!
[ Squawking ]
MAL: I don't understand
why you won't share your project with the cast.
Oh, don't get a bug in your operating system.
I'm just about ready to unveil my latest ingenious invention.
Ta-da!
Well, it's about time.
That's exactly what it's about... time.
I've created a new and improved time travel transporter.
What took you so long, kid?
Am I seeing double?
No, just me today...
And me tomorrow.
I decided I'd build a time portal in the present.
So that in the future, I'd remember it
and go back to the past to visit myself.
Wowee-zowee.
And who is this compact cutie?
MAL, meet GAL, your upgrade.
Back off, you laptop loser.
I'm gigabytes ahead of you.
Ooh, she'll make a spunky co-processor.
Oh, nice blighted garden you have here.
Doctor future dearest,
has time dimmed your vision?
This place is sickeningly gorgeous.
Ugh!
Jeepers, this guy's artificial intelligence
is lower than the average trash masher
where I come from.
Check it out, mini hertz.
We're in the middle of a minefield.
One of the little treats left over
from the most recent war.
This used to be farmland.
Now, if anyone tries to plant anything
or sneak up on us, it's...
Kaboom!
Yeah, it's a blast now,
but in 20 years, where I come from,
people have lost their senses
and become... ugh... Peace loving.
Shockingly, a good bomb is hard to find.
No! Yes.
There's hardly ever a decent war.
They're cleaning up old minefields,
neutralizing chemical weapons,
and storing old nuclear waste securely.
The future sounds dismal.
Well, fortunately,
there are still a few warmongers running around.
If I had just one nuclear warhead,
I could sell it to the highest bidder,
make a fortune, and ignite a new arms race!
I've got an even better idea.
Hmm, and it's not a bad idea at that.
How do you know what it is? I haven't said it yet.
Don't forget, sweetie, I'm you in the future.
I know everything you think because I already thought it.
Get her away from me.
Don't be a weenie, MAL.
We've got a bomb to build.
I have a formula for refining weapons-grade nuclear material.
But heck, some countries are so lax
with the nuclear materials from disassembled weapons,
it's easier to steal plutonium than to make your own.
Future Blight: Then, bombs away!
[ Both laugh ]
[ Thump ] What was that?!
Hey, big boys.
Would you pull over
for a beautiful damsel in distress?
Sure! If we see one.
[ Men laugh ]
Park it, bucko!
And it is reported that the plutonium was stolen
from an unescorted military transport truck.
Linka: Bozhe moi!
The missing plutonium poses
not only a threat of nuclear terrorism,
but the risk of environmental contamination
that would make the Chernobyl disaster look minor.
And that accident made thousands of people sick.
Then we'd better track down that plutonium, pronto!
[ Thunder cracks ]
Blight: That was like taking plutonium from a baby.
I make quite a team, eh, cutie?
MAL: Um, excuse me, doctors dearests.
But our payload's too heavy to handle this storm.
Let's jettison MAL.
He's dead weight.
Hey, I'm state of the art!
More like scrap parts.
[ Alarm blaring ] Huh?
Whoa!
Cool it, you two!
We've got to lighten the load.
MAL: The plutonium has to go.
Oh, no.
This stuff's gonna make me rich.
You mean me.
Don't be greedy!
We're the same person.
Well, in that case,
I might as well enjoy the money while I'm young.
No way.
You'll squander it before I ever get any.
[ Both grunting ]
We've got to dump the plutonium or we'll crash!
Never. I'll bail first.
Sayonara, suckers!
Hey, granny,
don't forget that if I bite the big one,
you're history, too.
Then let's stop yapping and get going.
We have a date with destiny.
Of course, you'll need my mega drive and talent.
Hey! What about me?!
Blight: The captain always goes down with the ship.
But I'm not the captain!
Congrats, MAL, baby.
You've just been promoted.
MAL: Lucky me. Aaaah!
Gi: We're nearing the place where the plutonium was stolen.
What in the world?!
[ Thunderclap, Planeteers' excited chatter ]
Gi: Some kind of weird electrical field.
We have lost power.
We're going down! Linka: What's happening?!
[ Screaming ]
Team beam time!
Let our powers combine. Earth!
- Fire! - Wind!
Water!
Heart!
By your powers combined, I am Captain Planet!
Whoa. Looks like they shocked till they dropped.
Planeteers, we're caught in a warp
in the space-time continuum.
I think I can repel the storm.
Just don't tell anyone about my repulsive personality.
It is working!
We have power.
That's what I've been telling them all these years.
Thanks so much, Captain.
Now to find out what happened to the plutonium.
Maybe they'll have some answers.
Everyone, hands in the air, now!
This must be the rest of the terrorist gang.
You think we nabbed the plutonium?
Where have the women taken it?
Women? Do not be coy.
The ones with the scarred faces and... spandex.
All: Blight?!
The bad doctor and plutonium don't mix.
We've got to stop her.
You are all under arrest.
Sorry, but you've apprehended the wrong plutonium perps,
and we've got to catch the real ones, fast.
Aah!
Move it!
Gi: The way those soldiers were talking,
it sounded like there were two Dr. Blights.
Now, that's a doubly disgusting thought.
Well, hang onto your cookies, Cap,
because there are two Dr. Blights,
and they're in the past altering history
to ensure a more war-filled future.
Or is that present?
That explains the time warp we were caught in.
Planeteers, we've got to stop both Blights
before the new future is now.
Happy trails.
The power is yours!
Future Blight: Don't even think about thinking about cheating.
I win, girly. I built my bomb faster than you.
No fair! You had GAL to help.
I'd have won if we hadn't ditched MAL.
I could beat Microwave MAL
with one disk drive tied behind my circuit board.
Well, my bomb's bigger, so it's better.
Whatever. We've got two killer bombs.
So, let's find the highest bidder.
With World War II in full swing,
that'll be as easy as eins, zwei...
Both: Drei!
Linka: Any luck tracing Blight's ship?
Gi: According to our readout,
the radiation footprint leads
all the way across southeast Asia?
And then the plutonium trail vanishes.
We're nearing ground zero.
There! Dr. Blight's ship.
Wheeler: Looks like it crashed.
Nowhere to land here.
I will set down near that village.
Come on, come on!
Move it!
I'm picking up a strange electrical disturbance up ahead.
Hurry, let's take this path.
No!
[ Screaming ]
What was that?
Land mine left over from the war.
Land mine?
They did not remove them after the fighting stopped?
No.
In fact, some militant groups are still planting them.
Well, thanks for stopping us, uh...
Tai-Li.
Me and my friends used to play here until...
this happened.
My friend Ming Su was not so lucky.
That is awful.
Our parents warned us about the mines,
but we just didn't listen.
How are we going to get through?
I don't know, but with that plutonium,
the Blights could start World War III.
If there's that much at stake, I can guide you,
but whatever you do, stick close.
With our bomb, you can rule the world.
With or without your bomb, I will rule the world!
Boy, is he in for a big surprise
if he doesn't spring for our bomb.
You will sell it to the highest bidder?
That's right, and this atomic bomb
will make conventional weapons look like toys.
Nein, das is preposterous.
The technology for refining weapons-grade material
does not exist.
It does where we come from.
Huh? And where is that?
The future.
[ Excited chatter ]
[ Gasp ] What?
Never seen an anti-gravity, radium-powered,
super artificial intelligence before?
Gentlemen? Gentlemen!
And I use the term loosely.
Our little demonstration should dispel your doubts.
[ Gunfire ]
[ Explosion ]
The radiation will poison the villagers.
Aw, don't get your knackwurst in a knot.
The villagers already evacuated
for fear of your puny bombs.
Fuhrer, this weapon is too destructive.
Nonsense!
Nothing is more important in war than winning!
I bid 75 million Deutsche Marks for this atom bomb.
Do I hear 100 mil, anyone?
Wheeler: So, Tai-Li,
where's the best place to get a...
What kind of burgers you got here, anyway?
Get real, Yankee.
Freeze! What is it?
A tripwire for an antipersonnel mine.
Then let's trip it.
Everyone back. Fire!
Ma-Ti: There is Blight's ship!
But what is wrong with it?
It is some kind of electrical anomaly.
I think I can balance it out.
Man, talk about a hard landing.
Oh, GAL, you have the cutest little giggle bytes.
Mwah, mwah...
Boot up, disk-head! GAL...
Huh, huh?
Aah! Planet pests.
Precisely, MAL, and we want some answers.
Where's Dr. Blight, for starters.
Oh, right, sure.
Would you prefer to have your hard drive re-initialized?
Wait! Let's not be hasty.
What the hay, they bailed on me.
So, you're saying Dr. Blight and...
Dr. Blight are in the past selling atomic bombs?
Mm-hmm.
We cannot let that happen.
And I suppose you eco-twerps think you can stop them.
With your help,
unless you want your circuits scrambled.
Well, the time machine's just behind you.
I'll send you back to the Dr. Blights...
and GAL...
but the crash damaged the mechanism,
so you won't have much time in the past.
Then we better move fast!
Now what are you doing?
Just programming a timer to reverse current and create
a polarizing magnetic field.
Good thinking, Gi.
If MAL wants to keep his memory intact,
he needs us to return and disable it.
Right.
Um, hurry back.
[ Artillery fire, airplane strafing ]
I bid 1 billion.
I'm out.
The bidding is too high.
Stop bidding against me or I will invade you!
On second thought, I have enough bombs.
Well, then it looks like the big blast
is sold to the man
with the caterpillar on his lip.
Going once, going twice...
Wheeler: Hang on there!
The Planeteers! What is this?
This is low.
Even for a Blight.
What are you doing with that... That barbarian?
Just ensuring a badder future.
Hey, Fuhrer, arrest these geo jerks
or they'll spoil everything.
What do you think you're doing?
Silence! Bring in the troops!
Ja, mein herr!
We'll arrest the future frauleins, too.
Just what do you think you're doing, shorty?
What I planned to do all along. I am taking my bomb!
But the auction.
The fuhrer does not barter.
He conquers!
And you said we could trust this guy.
Me?
Well, there's no such thing as a free bomb.
Oh, doctors, doctors,
you seem to have armed the bomb.
We need reinforcement.
Then let our powers combine.
Earth!
- Fire! - Wind!
Water!
Heart!
By your powers combined,
I am Captain Planet!
The Planeteers have gotten themselves
into another explosive situation.
I'd better dive for that bomb.
[ Groaning ]
Cap, are you okay?
I wasn't prepared for the level
of hatred radiating from that monster.
Prejudice and hate are as toxic as any other pollutant.
Come on! We're history!
Got to get far enough away
to keep the fallout from falling back to Earth.
I've heard of neutron bombs, atomic bombs,
even smart bombs,
but there's no such thing as a good bomb.
Aah!
Here comes the cavalry.
Or is it the infantry?
Thank you, Captain Planet.
You two timers have caused enough trouble here.
So it's back to the future.
Get ready, the time portal's opening.
Quickly, Tai-Li, the portal will not hold for long.
Be right there.
Here, please give this... [ Whispering ]
What did you give that soldier?
Just a letter.
Hey, soldier, can I cut you a deal on some atomic formulas?
Hmm.
Better get this to our science boys.
Could be important.
Get real, parsley head.
You can't make us de-mine that field.
Uh, maybe you can.
It's mines like yours
that created those killing fields,
so it's only fitting you clean them up.
We wouldn't be in this mess
if you hadn't had that hare-brained idea
about selling atomic bombs.
Well, whose idea was the time machine anyway?
Cork it, you old bitty!
Looks like Dr. Blight's really beside herself.
MAL! Do something! GAL! Do something!
Oh, MAL-ikins, you saved me! My hero.
You make my disk spin.
Ditto, my digital darling.
It is time for us to get back to the Geo-Cruiser.
I'll guide you back.
[ Excited chatter ]
Wow! Great!
Tai-Li, how?
You know that letter I gave to that soldier?
Yes. It was a strong warning
to my grandparents about the minefield.
Apparently I listened this time.
Guess that proves that if you pay attention
to the past,
history doesn't have to repeat itself.
Earth!
Fire!
Wind!
Water! Heart!
All: Go, Planet!
