Wow! That was so cool!
-Dad. -Mmm?
Can we wait for the bad guy just a little closer to the Octoclops?
Please?
I mean, we could move,
but then we might miss the target when she gets hungry.
Or when she goes to the bathroom.
Or when she tries to sneak out the emergency exit.
-From here, we can see everything. -Uh…
Oh. I guess that's true.
Are all your jobs like this?
Ain't always shoot-outs and bar fights, bud.
Most of my job is this. Waiting around.
You might be on a planet of glowing rivers and flying lizards,
but a lot of times, you still just gotta sit and wait.
Wanna know anything else?
Hmm…
Oh. How come you and Lisa don't get along?
What? We totally get along.
You don't think we get along?
Well, you guys fight a lot, so…
Hmm…
I don't know. I guess me and your sister just don't see eye to eye on everything.
Maybe it's 'cause you miss all her things.
Hmm?
You know, like her volleyball games, her decathlons, her plays.
Plays? What plays?
Yeah!
They did a musical of Highlander?
Wow. That sounds kinda cool.
Sorta wish I had to have seen that.
Yeah, it was so cool.
And then we got Chinese food, and I ate squid for the first time,
and me and Mom got the same fortunes in our cookies,
but Grandma's was blank, and then…
But we're hanging out all the time now.
Yeah, little man. Yeah. We are.
327, you're needed in the Octoclops enclosure.
I am going to remove this.
Do not scream and do not lie to me. Understand?
Mm-hmm! Mm-hmm.
Oh, man! I thought you were going to--
You said you used to work with Sabo Brok. Why'd you follow me? He here? He send you?
What? No! No, no, no.
I used to. I mean, I was his intern, you know,
so, like, yes, I technically worked with the guy, but…
But-- but-- but then I ditched him.
Yeah. Dude works for some seriously shady people,
and, you know, I just couldn't be a part of that, so…
I went solo.
I said do not lie to me.
Uh…
O-Okay. Look, I know what you're doing here.
I saw the Chilla in the mines, and I saw you.
And you looked like you were helping them.
If you're going to try to free them, then I just wanna help. That's it.
You're the kid from Warpies.
What happened with your dad?
He's…
I'm on my own now.
-You really wanna help? -Yes!
-Vax. -Lisa.
"Leeza." Interesting name.
Sorry about that. I can't be too careful.
Lucky for you, my team and I can actually use an extra pair of hands.
Welcome to the Liberation.
This is Setelva and McKoren.
Setelva and McKoren, meet Leeza.
Uh…
Who is Leeza?
She… worked for Sabo Brok.
But now she works with us.
She's gonna be helping us with our operation today.
You just wanna let this tiny mammal thing into the plan this late in the game?
How do you know Sabo didn't plant her here?
You wanna trust someone who worked for the Conglomerate?
I worked for the Conglomerate.
You trust me?
Hey! You guys aren't on break.
Oh my.
Just…
Bad Chillion dog.
Wanna give us a hand?
Um, just finish and clean up when you're done.
Hmm.
Impressive.
Whatever.
Welcome to the team.
Attention. Park is now closing.
Well, we must have missed her. Let's start again tomorrow morning.
Wait!
Dad! The Octoclops! There's no line.
Tell you what. I'll make it up to you with one of those Chillion dogs, huh?
Go ahead, order. Gonna see if your sister wants something.
-Lisa.
Lisa?
Hey, KRS.
Terry, we gotta talk about something.
The Conglomerate owns the zoo,
but they don't operate it or the mines beneath.
We need to release the Chilla before the zoo can alert the Conglomerate.
If they get an SOS out, EHC forces will be on us in minutes.
And we're not gonna win a shoot-out with the Conglomerate.
There are three sets of guards, and they change shift every six hours.
Only one carries the keycard to the command center.
Once we get into the command center,
we'll shut down the zoo's fences.
With the animals loose, the guards will be too busy to notice us.
And then we'll head down to the mines, disable the collars,
arm the Chilla with our weapons cache, and lead them out of the park to freedom.
If we do our jobs right, we won't have to fire a single blaster.
Except we need to shut down those collars from inside the security building.
Now, you just let me blast my way in…
They'll hit the alarm,
and we'll spend the rest of our lives on a prison satellite.
Well, genius, what do you suggest, huh?
Someone's gotta get in there.
Maybe I can help.
What the…
I dropped my ice cream, and I lost my puppy,
and I can't find my mommy!
Oh, jeez. Uh… Okay. Uh…
Whoa, you stay here.
Hey, uh… We got a lost kid here.
Hey. You're not supposed to be in here.
Too easy.
-You're not supposed to be here.
I have to call…
Don't-- don't call.
-Leeza, report.
I have to--
-All good! Just almost in position!
No children backstage!
-Just go to sleep!
-Leeza!
Okay.
We're good. In position.
Okay.
All right. I'm gonna walk you through disabling the fences. Listen close.
327, are you messing with the Octoclops again?
Uh… No.
Ugh. You're such a child. Just leave it alone.
Huh?
Oh God! Sorry!
Help, help!
Hello? Hello? 327, what are you doing?
Fences down. I-I repeat, fences down!
We're on. Let's move.
You're clear.
Just keep going, and…
Oh crap.
One guard. He's a straggler. About to turn a corner in front of you.
What? What's he doing?
-Leave him to me. -Wait. Don't just…
Problem solved.
Right through here.
Wait!
You guys gotta wait until there's an opening.
Give it a sec.
I'll tell you when.
So, how'd you guys find out about this place?
Found out about it when I worked for the Conglomerate.
I felt like I was a part of something good.
Connecting the universe. That's their whole thing.
But then I saw how they actually do it.
Taking over a planet, exploiting whatever sentient life-forms are there.
That's the story of Chillion and countless other worlds.
-Once I learned that, I couldn't go back.
Okay.
Get ready…
And… go!
Close one.
The EHC seems pretty smart.
Why don't they just use their guards to do the mining?
Why do they need the Chillas?
They use the ore to make Warp Pods.
And the Chillas are the only ones who can handle the raw ore
without getting warped.
Guard on the track!
Okay. Anytime you're ready, guys.
We're here.
No breaks. Move!
We need to disable the collars. You ready, Leeza?
Uh…
I must have entered it wrong. Give me the numbers again.
Four, seven, two, two, nine, seven, three, one, nine.
We don't have time for mistakes!
It's not me! The code's not working.
Hold on.
Okay. Here's something. I'm looking at the map of the mines.
It looks like you guys are near a maintenance tunnel
that leads to a… "collar redundancy system"?
Collar redundancy system. I bet that's a fail-safe.
Must be to make sure collars can't be disabled if fences go down.
Okay, Leeza, we'll need you to lead us up to the backup power supply.
I'm on it.
-Any other way in? -Doesn't look like it.
Okay. Guess we're doing this the hard way.
Look, dude, all I'm saying is if you wanna see gains,
you're gonna have to get rid of all those tox--
The collar generators are under attack!
Didn't see that one coming, did ya?
All right.
Think the call went out?
Let's not wait to find out.
-Huh?
Back to work!
-No, no. No!
Oh no.
Stay back.
Come on, little guy.
Maybe I got a treat. Huh?
No! No!
-Finally. I can breathe again.
My friend, my people and I owe you our deepest gratitude.
They can talk?
Man, that's messed up.
Don't thank me yet.
Hmm…
Huh?
Round two.
Fall back!
We can't let him stop the operation, no matter what.
Right.
Whoo!
Wait! I see a mine cart crossing up ahead.
Got it.
Vax, I think he's got us trapped.
Oh yeah, you are.
You guys think you're so hot, huh?
Taste this!
Oh yeah.
You guys think you're tough stuff?
Yeah!
Whoo!
Huh?
Aw.
Get off me, you little…
We should move.
Whoa.
We did it! Ha!
Take that, Dad.
You are useful,
for a weird mammal thing.
Oops. Forgot this thing was on.
She means well done, Leeza.
Go! Run!
What happened?
Oh no. Guys? Guys!
Uh…
-Is anyone there? I'm surrounded.
You're not supposed to be he--
Vax? Guys. It would really be great if you could answer now.
Uh…
You guys made it! You're safe!
-Huh? -We had a bit of a delay.
It's a pleasure to meet you, Leeza.
Huh?
Hmm…
-Hmm… -Wanna do the honor?
I doubted you, little one. But we couldn't have done it without you.
Leeza, I'll fight alongside you any time.
We can't stop yet.
Split into three groups.
We'll each lead a group to our safe houses.
If one group finds trouble, then we count on the other two to help us.
Okay. Let's rest here.
Oh boy.
Chakalau, you're pretty good with that sword.
Should you find yourself on Chillion again,
I'd be happy to teach you.
EHC! Run!
Vax! Where are you?
-We have to go!
-Leeza, run!
The Conglomerate, they--
Dad?!
But how did you…
How did I find you? This is my job.
What did you think would happen?
