SHURI: (WHISPERING)
Bast...

time is running out.

Please allow me to heal
my brother of this illness,

and I will never
question your existence again.

His heart rate is dropping fast.
Where are we?

We are finishing a sequence now.

Princess,
you should go be by his side.

I have to think.
Everyone, get out.

Get out!

What is the confidence rate?

GRIOT: 29.1%.

Print it!

GRIOT: Princess,
I am aware of the urgency,

this synthetic Heart-Shaped Herb

has a minimal chance of
producing the desired effects.

I don't care!
Has to work.

CHAIRPERSON: It is an honor for me...

to invite her majesty,
Queen Ramonda,

daughter of Lumumba,

sovereign ruler
of the kingdom of Wakanda.

US SECRETARY OF STATE:
Mr. Chairperson,

I believe I speak for
all the member states here

when I say that
I am deeply disappointed

in Wakanda's failure

to stand by promises to
participate in global efforts

to tackle
international challenges,

to share resources,

and full cooperation

concerning vibranium.

(IN FRENCH)

(IN ENGLISH)
I now give the floor

to Her Majesty, Queen Ramonda.

It has always been our policy

to never trade vibranium
under any circumstance.

Not because of the dangerous
potential of vibranium,

but because of the dangerous
potential of you.

OKOYE: Our foremothers
gave us the spear...

because it is precise,
elegant...

and deadly.

(SPEAR CLANGS)

It will not change
under my watch.

Yes, General.

I told you not to bring them.

Last night
there was another attack

on one of
our outreach facilities.

of a member state

is being uploaded to your

(CELL PHONES VIBRATING)

of the attackers...

(ROUSING MUSIC PLAYING)

(IN XHOSA)

(IN FRENCH)

(IN ENGLISH) Let our gracious
response to this incursion

be an olive branch.

Further attempts
on our resources

will be considered
an act of aggression

and met with
a much steeper response.

We mourn the loss of our king.

But do not think for a second

that Wakanda
has lost her ability

to protect our resources.

We are aware
of the ongoing efforts by some

to find vibranium
outside of Wakanda,

and wish you the best of luck.

PILOT: (ON RADIO)
This is Rotor 625

requesting clearance to land.

DR. GRAHAM: All right.
Meet you down there.

Yeah.

Hey!

I thought you retired!

I thought I had too.

They said that machine
had a one in a billion chance

of finding vibranium.

Oh, less than that.

SALAZAR: We've touched down.

DR. GRAHAM:
Perfect. So, Salazar,

you are near the site
right there.

SALAZAR: Yeah, it's astonishing.

The drill seemed to make contact

with a metallic substance.

JACKSON: Whatever it is,
it's solid.

I've never seen a drill bit
chewed up like this before.

SMITTY: I'll be.

Vibranium in the ocean.

Let's go ahead and get
the detector out of there,

since it's the only one
we've got.

SALAZAR: Heading towards
the vibranium detector.

(POWER SHUTTING DOWN)

Okay, Salazar,
we just went dark.

SALAZAR: Yeah.
The rig lost power.

Copy that.
I'm gonna fix it up here.

Hey, uh, Salazar,
can you give me a visual?

SALAZAR:
It's a phantom jellyfish.

We never seen one this color.

Emergency dive team, stand by.

Salazar, uh,
we just lost Jackson's vitals.

Can you see him?

(AIR HISSING)

No. He's gone. (SHUDDERS)

(WAKANDA BY BAABA MAAL PLAYING)

ANDERSON COOPER: Queen Ramonda
of the nation of Wakanda

gave an electrifying speech
at the UN yesterday,

while members of her military

escorted captive mercenaries

onto the floor of the UN.

A year has passed
since Queen Ramonda

was reinstated
as ruler of Wakanda

after King T'Challa's
sudden death

from an undisclosed illness
last year.

All eyes are on the tiny,
powerful nation,

as it finds itself
increasingly isolated...

(OKOYE SPEAKING XHOSA)

GRIOT: Princess.

Just a moment.

I'm in the middle of something.

GRIOT: I understand,
Princess, however...

You're disrupting
my train of thought.

RAMONDA: Shuri.

Mother.

GRIOT: I was trying to tell you.

The Queen is here.

- Thank you.
- That thing unnerves me.

I think that one day

artificial intelligence
is going to kill us all.

My AI isn't like the movies,
Mother.

It does exactly
what I tell it to do.

Yeah, if only children
were the same.

Everyone seems to be
working diligently.

Yes. Rapid emergency
response task.

There could be any number of

unknown threats on the horizon,

and they're creating solutions.

RAMONDA: Oh, What is this?

Exo Suits for our army.

It grants the user
super-human strength,

speed, and durability.

But, as always, Okoye had notes.

What were her notes?

She hates them.

Oh.

What about recreating
the Heart-Shaped Herb?

Have you made
any progress on that?

GRIOT: Excuse me, Princess.

Nakia, daughter of Yaa,
is trying to reach you again.

Maybe you should...

Maybe you should
continue your calculations

as I instructed.

GRIOT: As you Wish, Princess.

We do not need the Herb, Mother.

We need new technology.

What of the Black Panther?

The mantle has unified
our nation for centuries.

The Black Panther
is a relic, Mother.

I wasn't trying to save
the mantle with the Herb,

I was trying to save my brother.

RAMONDA: Oh, Shuri.

(SIGHS)

(SIGHS)

Do you know what day it is?

Tuesday.

The date, child.

(SHURI SIGHS)

Brother's passing.

One year ago today.

Have you planned anything?

Yes. It involves you taking
your mother for a drive.

- Right now?
- Right now.

And you can leave
your Kimoyo Beads here.

- Mother.
- No, no.

You won't need them
where we are going.

Hmm?

And the other two. Yes.

(SHURI SCOFFS)

(DISTANT ANIMAL CALLS)

(SIGHS)

(INSECTS CHIRPING)

You need to sit here with me.
And with yourself.

It is the only way
you are going to heal

from the wound caused
by T'Challa's death.

I'm fine, Mother.

You don't have to worry
about me.

He's gone,
but I'm moving forward.

T'Challa is dead,

but that doesn't mean
he is gone.

When that illness
took your brother from us,

I had to lead a wounded nation
and a broken world.

But I still took time
in the bush.

I wandered until I found water.

And I sat.

Then I did this ritual

that I am about to show you now.

(SPIRITUAL MUSIC PLAYING)

I found your brother
in the breeze,

pushing me gently, but firm.

Like his hand on my shoulder.

It took some time,

but he was there.

He wasn't there, Mother.

The presence that you felt

was just a construct
of your mind.

(SPIRITUAL MUSIC CONTINUES)

Brought on so you could feel
some comfort or joy.

That's all.

Hmm.

What construct
does your mind create

when you think of your brother?

Does it offer you comfort?

Or torment?

(SPIRITUAL MUSIC CONTINUES)

(SIGHS)

Come, child.

How did you get this?

What does it matter?

What does this have to do
with your ritual?

RAMONDA: Burning
of the funeral garments

marks the end
of the mourning period

and the beginning
of a new relationship

with our loved ones
that have passed on...

I'm not doing this, Mother.

If I sit

and think about my brother
for too long,

it won't be these clothes
I'll burn.

It Will be the world...

and everyone in it.

(SIGHS) Shuri...

Shuri, there's something
that I need to tell you

about your brother.

(ELEPHANTS TRUMPETING)

Mother, wait!

- What are you doing?
- (FOOTSTEPS RUMBLING)

(RAMONDA PANTING)

(RUMBLING FADES)

(UNEASY MUSIC PLAYING)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

This better not be
a part of your ritual.

It isn't.

RAMONDA: Stop! Right there!

Who are you?
And how did you get in here?

This place is amazing.

The air is pristine.

And the water...

My mother told stories
about a place like this.

A protected land with people
that never have to leave.

That never have to change
who they were.

What reason do you have

to reveal your secret
to the world?

I am not a woman
who enjoys repeating herself.

Who are you?

MAN: I have many names.

My people call me K'uk'ulkan...

but my enemies call me Namor.

The American military
detected vibranium

under my nation's domain.

I was able to
stop them from minin' it,

but we need Wakanda's help

to prevent it
from happenin' again.

They use a machine designed
by an American scientist.

Vibranium only exists here.

In Wakanda.

Mother, he's covered in it.

Your son exposed the power
of vibranium to the world.

In response,
other nations have begun

searching the planet for it.

His choice has compromised us.

I think Wakanda
could find the scientist

and bring them to me?

It is only fair that Wakanda
helps to resolve our dilemma.

You do not sneak into my country

and tell me what is fair.

I have more soldiers than
this land has blades of grass.

And they have
incomparable strength.

I would hate to come back
under different circumstances.

(INHALES SHARPLY)

When you have the scientist,
blow into this,

place it in the ocean.

I'll be there
shortly afterwards.

For your own sake,

don't mention anything about me

to anyone outside of Wakanda.

Did you see the wings
on his ankles?

(RAMON DA BREATHING SHAKILY)

(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)

SHURI: How did he do that?

RAMONDA:
We must convene the Council.

OKOYE: Heaven Scrapers
had no evidence

of any activity at all.

Oh, the river border
has been breached, huh?

If my soldiers were present,

this "fish man"

would be bound before us
as we speak.

If your muscle brains
were present,

they would still be there

choking on their
fuzzy adornments.

You bald-headed demon...

Show some respect, you two.

M'BAKU: Respect?

These men should be
ashamed to show their faces!

Watch your tone, Jabari!

(JABARIS HOOTING)

(YELLS)

(SPEARS THUD)

OKOYE: As I was saying,

there was no aerial
surveillance footage of him.

And nothing
on the radar as well.

So, he swam underwater
for 100 kilometers.

RAMONDA: He was not alone.

And claims to command
a massive army.

He wants us to deliver
one American scientist?

So he can kill them?

Do it.

We never had to face an enemy

with access to vibranium before.

And we have no Black Panther
to protect us.

M'BAKU: That is because
this wise Council

allowed Killmonger
to take the throne

and burn up all of your
precious Heart-Shaped Herb.

M'Baku,
what would you have us do?

We should find the fish man
and kill him.

If we do
What he is asking for now,

what is to stop him
from coming back

and asking for more?

(SIGHS)

(BELIEVE BY BUSISWA ET AL
PLAYING ON SPEAKERS)

RAMONDA: As you were.

Is it just me, or does this
keep getting uglier?

It's you.

- So, does it work?
- Yes.

This thing can detect

the altered frequency
of vibranium

through water, stones,
even heavy metals.

Whoever built this is brilliant.

Come, look.

Some are custom parts
and others look like

they gathered it
from a junkyard.

I am still struggling to believe

that vibranium exists
outside of Wakanda.

Perhaps there was
more than one meteorite.

Our planet is covered
of mostly water,

so it's reasonable

that the other one
just landed there.

This changes everything
that we know.

The Great Mound.
All of the legends and fables.

Those stories
are seared in my mind.

That sounds very painful.

So we have to find
this scientist after all.

- I do have an idea.
- RAMONDA: Mm.

I'm going to need the princess.

Out of the question.

She is in no state
to be in the field.

(IN XHOSA)

(IN ENGLISH) it may
do her some good to get out.

It might just be exactly
what she needs.

Besides, I can do
this American operation

with my eyes closed.

It's not the Americans
that I'm worried about.

This Namor,

he snuck past our defenses.

That will never happen again.

He was not alone.

She'll be with me.

SHURI: So,

when are we leavin'

so I can see
my favorite colonizer?

We are looking for the scientist

who built
the vibranium detector.

So it was you guys
in the Atlantic?

Come on. Mining ship.

Lot of casualties.

What happened?

Seriously?

It was a joint operation.
Us and the SEALS.

Thirty of their top guys,
two of our best officers,

friends of mine.

Gone.

Just like that.

You throw in the fact

that they were tracking
vibranium...

I can assure you Wakanda
had nothing to do with this.

So who was it?

God, look, the way that
this is supposed to work

is that I give you information
and you reciprocate.

For our own safety,
we cannot tell you.

It's imperative that
we get to the scientist

before anything else happens.

You owe me, Ross.

You owe my brother.

Okay, look.

There are agents who have
been sentenced to death

for less than
I'm about to give you now.

And we got a new director.

She's watching me like a hawk.

We will be very, very careful.

Not just careful,
you gotta be fast.

The US needs another machine

and this kid is
the only person in the world

who knows how to build one.

So they're comin' for her.

A kid?

It's a student, Mother.

We can't give her to Namor.

RAMONDA: Bring this student
back to Wakanda.

I've got it from here.

Wait. Maybe I should
speak with her.

It will be more discreet.

No.

It's the wrong shade, isn't it?

It's the right shade.

No.

I'm here about

I ain't built no detector

I made that

- A school project?
- RIRI: Yeah.

My professor said
I'd never be able to do it.

To be young, gifted,

(RIRI CHUCKLES)

Y'all probably don't say that

Brilliance at a young age

is not always accepted

Small, small girl.

I am going to give you

You can come to Wakanda,

conscious or unconscious.

You need to be conscious

- No, it's not.

- Mm-hmm. I told you!

who wants to kill her
all by herself.

- SHURI: Come on. Let's go.

What?

OKOYE: What exactly
is this place?

RIRI: I fixed a few trucks
for the head of sanitation.

He lets me work out
of this garage in exchange.

I just have to grab
my work laptop.

Please don't touch anything.

OKOYE: You don't have to worry
about that.

RIRI: It may not look like much,

but it's my life's work in here.

OKOYE: Mm-hmm.

So, the design for the machine
is on that laptop?

Yeah.

And you just leave it
on a desk in a car garage?

I got 2065-byte encryption
on that thing.

That's impressive.
Ever locked yourself out?

RIRI: Took me the Whole

Had to build a functional
quantum computer

just to crack
my own encryption. (CHUCKLES)

What is it you're building

is gonna show up at my doorstep

and then shit about to pop off.

I think

that I'm actually gonna take
my chances with this merman,

because at least he never

This is the Federal Bureau

Maybe we should just split up.

Does this vehicle work?

No.

Two of y'all. I'm takin' this.

FBI AGENT: General Okoye,
Princess Shuri,

come out with your hands up.

OKOYE: What a hunk of sunk.

Hey, please be careful.

FBI AGENT: You will not
be placed under arrest.

Keys are on the seat.

Once we get to
the other side of the bridge,

we can lose them
in Boston traffic.

General,
we really need to split up.

Listen to me.
We are not in your lab.

We are in the field.

Now, get her in the car.

They want the glow
They want my soul

They want the wave I keep a clip

OKOYE: GRIOT...
GRIOT: Yes, General?

...take me to the princess

or I will drive my spear

you will not be able to process

GRIOT: Just one moment, General.

SHURI: Okoye,
I'm on my way to you.

Why the laws wanna take us under

Why the hell am I in this jungle

Hey, yo, they cuttin' off

(SIRENS WAILING)

GRIOT: Princess,
there is a surveillance drone

- How high?

GRIOT: Thirty-thousand feet.

We don't cry 'bout

-Look

They want my soul

Hang on.

I got it.

Come on, Riri.

You gotta find
these differential equations.

Once the relative velocity
evens out...

SHURI: Riri, I'm not sure
you can reach that drone

without an oxygen mask.

GRIOT: Oxygen level is now 55%.

RIRI: Twenty-eight

GRIOT: Oxygen level is now 30%.

Maximum acceleration.
I just need to adjust

that should drop it

Ross, from the Agency.
You got any witnesses?

None. But we think
it was the Wakandans.

Excuse me?

Our field office
got a tip from Langley

that they were coming.

Right. Who made that call?

- She did.
- AGENT: Director de Fontaine.

Director de Fontaine.

Really?

Well...

Uh, Agent thinks
it was the Wakandans.

Yeah, we've been
on every one of them

since they took out our ship.

That's why I wanted you here.

You're lookin' good.

Oh. Well, I try.

DE FONTAINE: You put
that home gym in?

ROSS: Yeah. Last year.

Maybe I'll drop by sometime
and jump on your Peloton.

Howdy.

- I'm special agent in charge.
- Oh, good for you.

You wanna walk me through
the evidence here, or what?

- Yeah. Okay. After you.
- Yeah. Okay.

- All right.
- So, what happened here?

Um, we think it was a car crash,

but we're having trouble
finding the cars.

DE FONTAINE: What do you mean?

It was just like this
when you found it?

SPECIAL AGENT: Yes.
We think someone involved

got rid of the vehicles.

DE FONTAINE:
Got rid of them how?

SPECIAL AGENT: They dumped
them into the river.

DE FONTAINE: You're kidding me.

It's got an MIT sticker on it.

I want that transferred
to the NSA immediately.

Hey, Ross?
You got a full tank of gas?

Can you give me a ride
back to Langley?

ROSS: (HESITATES)
It's an eight-hour drive.

DE FONTAINE: Yeah.
We can talk about the case.

Actually, wouldn't mind...
(CLEARS THROAT)

Apologizing to you
for a couple of things I said

during our marriage.

OKOYE: They were blue.

And they had
superhuman strength.

And they came from the water
on the backs of whales.

I struck down three of them

with blows
that should've killed them,

but they rose again.

I wish to leave immediately
to retrieve our princess.

RAMONDA: Okoye,

you will be
stripped of your rank

as General of Wakanda's armies

and your status as Dora Milaje.

(IN XHOSA)

(IN ENGLISH) You may.

(IN XHOSA)

(IN ENGLISH)
I have given everything.

Let me die saving my country
and that throne.

(IN XHOSA)

(IN ENGLISH) Allow me
to make this right.

"Make it right"?

(CRIES)

I do not know if my daughter
is alive or dead.

Perhaps we are being too hasty.

M'BAKU: Mmm.

She raised a spear against
her own husband for Wakanda.

Where is her
treacherous husband now

but in a place where she can
visit if she wished? Mine...

is with the ancestors.

I am Queen of the most
powerful nation in the world,

and my entire family is gone!

Have I not given everything?

On your feet, General.

I stood by you

after Killmonger
took the throne,

and you and the elders
in this room stood by him

while I ran begging
to the Jabari for protection.

And I warned you

about taking my daughter
on this mission,

and you lost her.

So, today,

I am done. (BREATH SHUDDERS)

(GRAVE MUSIC PLAYING)

(SIGHS DEEPLY)

(DOOR WHIRS)

Are you here, GRIOT?

GRIOT: Yes, my Queen.

Were you with Shuri
when she was abducted?

GRIOT: I was.

Are you able to track
her Kimoyo Beads?

DE FONTAINE: Ballistics found
slugs all over Cambridge.

Those Wakandans really
took a tour of the city.

ROSS: Hmm.

I can't see how
they figured out who built it.

That information
is highly classified.

(DEVICE CHIMES SOFTLY)

What is that?

- That's a new ringtone?
- Oh, shit.

Uh, Director, I'm sorry.
I'm gonna have to take this.

It's enough with the titles.

Just take it. I don't care.

Hey, honey sweetheart.

Ooh. (CHUCKLES)

Uh, no, I'm...
I'm with my boss. Now.

Actually, she's leaving.

All right.

I'm gonna work from home,
and then have a shower.

(CAR STARTS)

(KIMOYO BEADS CHIRP)

Everett Ross.

Queen Ramonda?

What are you doing
with Shuri's Kimoyo Beads?

I didn't know they were hers.
All right?

I just found them
at a pretty ugly crime scene.

Do you have the student?

Shuri was trying to save her
when they were both taken.

What? Taken by who?

My agency assumes it was you.

And I'm worried
they might be onto the fact

that I pointed Shuri and Okoye
in the right direction.

Look, if they're in danger,
I wanna help.

But I can't if I don't know
What's going on.

I am afraid there is
a new world power at play.

A country
that's already on our radar?

Or you mean someone else?

RAMONDA: That is all I can say for now.

Please,

alert me if your government
decides to act

on their suspicions.

Yeah. Sure.

Uh, look, if there's anything
I can do to help, let me know.

I owe Shuri my life.

GRIOT, did Shuri have
her earrings with her?

GRIOT: I lost track of them
in the North Atlantic,

but the people who took her
spoke Yucatec Mayan.

they feed the fish,

I recognize
some of the concepts here.

But you are using
different material.

Yes, we use strictly what
we can find here in Haiti.

You were missed
at T'Challa's funeral.

Oh...

(QUIETLY) Queen Mother.

RAMONDA: It's been six years
since you left us.

I thought you would at least
come back for the ceremony.

I was afraid

of how final
the funeral would be.

Nakia, daughter of Yaa,

wherever you go,
you are still Wakandan,

and you know
death is not the end.

(IN XHOSA)

(IN ENGLISH)
How is everyone at home?

Shuri has been taken.

What?

You have infiltrated
many nations before.

(IN XHOSA)

(IN ENGLISH)
I was a different person then.

I need someone who can find
where she is being held,

and rescue her,
without being seen.

Who on earth would risk war
with Wakanda?

RIRI: Oh, my God. (GASPING)

SHURI: Okay, breathe. Breathe.

Oh, don't tell me to breathe.

Where the hell are we?

We're in a cave.
I'm not sure where.

Oh, my God!

(GASPS) What is that?

SHURI: Glow worms.
Their larva gives off light.

- (RIRI GASPS HEAVILY)
- SHURI: Just calm down.

Okay, is there, like,
a new Black Panther

that you can call
to come and get us?

No.

Why not?

Because it doesn't
work like that anymore.

The Black Panther is gone.

So y'all stopped
having Black Panthers

when I get kidnapped?

Your mother was human.

She was.

Then she became something else.

NAMOR: My mother and her village

were driven from their farms

by Spanish conquistadors
who brought the smallpox,

a hateful language,
and dogma from another world.

Facing starvation,

war, and disease,

my people turned to Chaac...

our god of rain and abundance.

Chaac gave our shaman
a vision...

- (GASPS)
- ...a way to save his people.

(ARBOLES BAJO EL MAR PLAYING)

NAMOR: Chaac led him to a plant
sprouting from a blue rock.

My mother was pregnant with me
at the time,

and she did not want to
ingest the plant

for fear
of what it may do to me.

(IN MAYAN)

(IN ENGLISH)
But the Shaman was convincing.

(SHAMAN SPEAKING MAYAN)

(BODY THUDS)

And their lives,

I was a mutant.

I could swim in the sky
and age slower.

Breathe the air
our ancestors breathed.

As she grew older,

my mother mourned the life
on land that she once knew...

and died with a broken heart.

She made me promise

to bury her
in the soil of her homeland.

Nothing could prepare me

The child without love.

And I took my name from there.

"Namor."

Because I have no love
for the surface world.

Why are you telling me
all of this?

So that you can understand why
I have to kill the scientist.

What if we took her to Wakanda?

Let us go.

I give you my word.

She will remain in my country.

I cannot risk that, Princess.

Then keep me instead.

I'd love to see your nation.

Well, you can't go
down there in that.

Hypothermia will grip you

Your blood will become toxic

Queen Mother,
I've found her signal.

It's coming

If she's down there,

I'm sure
I'll encounter resistance.

How would you like me
to proceed?

Retrieve the princess
by any means necessary.

I will attempt
to draw Namor out.

(BREATH ES DEEPLY)

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING)

You are the first person
from the surface

to come to Talokan.

Please take this as a token
of our gratitude.

It was made with the plant
that saved Talokan.

You are young, Princess.

When you age as I do,
you realize

we all lose everyone we love.

But when I lost my brother,

it just felt different.

He suffered in silence.

When he finally asked me
to help him, I couldn't.

How does that make sense

that the ancestors would
give me gifts and skills

to help me save my brother,
and I couldn't?

Why?

I don't have an answer
for that question.

My ancestors would often say,

"Only the most broken people
can be great leaders."

I admire
what you have built here.

And how you've protected
your people.

But as princess of Wakanda,

I will not stand for you
killing that young woman.

My nation will not rest
until I'm returned.

I'm not leaving without her.

We need to find a peaceful way
to resolve this.

It is no longer
about the scientist.

For centuries,
the surface nations

have conquered and enslaved
people like us.

Over resources.

Since the day
I buried my mother,

I have prepared my people

for the time
they will come for us.

And that machine is the sign
that the time is now.

I need to know if Wakanda
is an ally or an enemy.

There is no in-between.

So you plan to wage war
on the entire world,

and you want Wakanda
to help you?

That's madness.

There isn't a nation
that wouldn't plunder Wakanda

if given a chance.

If we make an alliance,

we can protect each other
by striking them first.

Then, when the threat of these
nations has been eliminated,

the scientist will be returned
to Wakanda.

And if Wakanda
does not accept, what then?

The scientist will die.

And Wakanda will be
the first nation to fall.

An attack on my people?

Yes.

And I want you to listen to me.

Wakanda cannot win a war
with Talokan.

(WATER SLOSHES)

And now they abducted

Yeah, with all due respect,

Riri Williams is a child prodigy

who was running circles around
all of her professors.

The Wakandans
were recruiting her

as part of their
outreach program.

Nothing more. And then,

you guys send in a SWAT team
under cover of night

to arrest the Crown Princess

of an international superpower.

The President wants
to take offensive action

against Wakanda.

(CRYPTIC MUSIC PLAYS)

What type of offensive action?

Destabilization.

Well, Special Officer Ross
is our expert.

So, Ross, what do you think?

My sources are telling me

that there's someone else
out there.

- Another nation?
- ROSS: Could be. I don't know.

You've gotta give me enough time

to investigate this properly,

otherwise we're gonna
find ourselves at war

with a country
whose military capacity

we can't even comprehend.

Director?

I think he's the expert.

I think it would be a mistake
to attack Wakanda.

(KIMOYO BEADS TRILL SOFTLY)

RAMONDA: (ON PHONE) Yes?

We have a problem.

Is my daughter alive?

The princess is alive and well.

She requested
to be taken to Talokan.

She will remain there
for the time being.

What can I offer you
in exchange?

Nothing.

I beg to differ.

The Americans are preparing
to blame Wakanda

for your attack
on their mining ship.

Return my daughter
and the scientist

or I will inform them
of your existence.

If you tell the Americans
about us,

if you try to find us,

or if I discover a single
Wakandan ship in the ocean,

I will kill the princess.

I will come to Wakanda

and I Will kill you.

So, what happened?

He wants to go to war
with the surface world,

and asked me to help him.

I need to think.

We ain't never

Jabari land offers you

You must mourn her

Do not bury yourself
in your technology.

Why are you here?

I promised your brother

that I would provide you
with counsel

and protection.

But I am in need
of your advice today.

Your tribal elders
have approached me

with a proposition.

They wish to evacuate the city
and set up camp

in Jabari land.

So, now you are keen
to hear from a child

who scoffs at tradition?

M'BAKU: Mm.

The world...

The world has taken
too much from you

for you to still be
considered a child.

It is in my people's interest
to know

which way your mind is leaning.

The elders are desperate.

The city is vulnerable.

If you are to provide for them,

they will be
in great debt to you.

And what of your heart?

Hmm?

Which way is your heart leaning?

I just buried the last person
who truly knew me.

My heart was buried with her.

The Beads.

I had them bugged

I've been privy to every

May she rest in peace.

But it's good.

Well, for us.

All right. You know what?
The Wakandans saved my life.

- They're a good people.
- Mm-hmm.

You ever thought for a second

what they could be doing?

Ever thought
what we would be doing

if the US was the only country
in the world with vibranium?

Oh, I actually dream about that.

Val. Val, please.

It's Director de Fontaine.

Your mother protected me
like I was one of her own.

The least that I could do
is try to return the favor.

We need to find a way

Even weakened,
he's still gonna be a problem.

The Black Panther has never
failed to protect Wakanda.

the Black Panther was gone.

My brother is dead.

GRIOT?

Let's start by running

GRIOT: Yes, Princess.

Since this was grown
from vibranium-rich soil,

they may share
some base-level similarities

that we can exploit.

GRIOT: As you Wish, Princess.

(ALONE BY BURNA BOY PLAYING)

GRIOT: Uploading now.

Who do I turn to

When I need saving

'Cause you move mountain

I can't do the same

And did you think about

When you left us

Why doesn't he look like them?

His physiology
is completely different.

None of them fly
or have pointed ears like him.

The women that were guarding us,

they had water over their mouths

and on their necks.

He didn't have that.

Several organisms
don't need gills

to extract oxygen
from the water, so...

It's like a jellyfish.

He just absorbs the oxygen
from his skin.

It's a process called

- diffusion.
- Diffusion.

Every day that passes
without selecting the ruler

is a day wasted.

We must deal with Namor

before he brings
his warriors back here.

And how are we to deal with
a man with that much power?

In that attack,
before he took out your plane,

he jumped back into the water.

What if that's what
makes him strong?

He's breathing air
and getting oxygen

from the water on his skin.

If we could find a way
to dry his ass out,

he won't be as strong.

Yo, that's it.

GRIOT. We need to convert
the Royal Talon Fighter

into a pervaporation chamber.

Is that even possible?

Yes.

You're going to help us

No.

So, Why did you take it, then?

You don't have to lie to me.

We're more alike than you think.

I took it to avenge

No.

I had the courage to do

did Wakanda protect
before I took the throne?

Cowards.

That was the Panthers
that came before me,

and before T'Challa.

Don't mention my brother.

You're the reason why he's dead.

You burnt the Herb,
left us with no protector.

Then Namor struck
and killed my mother.

Their blood is on your hands.

That ain't on me.

And don't you dare

take that away from your mother.

She sacrificed her life
to protect

a young girl
from the lost tribe.

Your father, he was a hypocrite.

He would've killed that girl.

Shit, he killed his own brother.

It's good to see you.

Everything is ready.

Just give me one moment, eh?

Actually,

I think I should do it
on my own.

Of course.

(LIFT ME UP BY RIHANNA PLAYING)

Lift me up

Hold me down

Keep me close

Safe and sound

Burning in a hopeless dream

Hold me when you go to sleep

Keep me in the warmth
of your love

When you depart keep me safe

Safe and sound

Lift me up

Hold me down

Keep me close

Safe and sound

Drowning in an endless sea

Take some time and stay with me

Keep me in the strength
of your arms

Keep me safe

Safe and sound

Lift me up

Hold me down

Keep me safe

Safe and sound

Burning in a hopeless dream

Hold me when you go to sleep

Keep me safe

We need light We need love

-Lift me up
-Lift me up

in your arms

-Hold me down
-I need love, I need love

I need love

-Keep me safe
-Hold me

We need light We need love

NAKIA: Shuri,

can we join you now?

This is my son, To us saint.

To us saint,

this is your aunty, Shuri.

Hi.

(BOTH LAUGH)

We agreed it was better
for him to grow up here.

Away from the pressure
of the throne.

Your father,

your baba,

prepared us for his death,
didn't he?

But he didn't want us
to go to the funeral

because he felt the time
was not yet right.

So we had our own ceremony
for him here.

Did my mother meet him?

NAKIA: She did.

It's nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

To us saint is a beautiful name.

It holds a great history.

Thanks. Yours is cool, too,
I guess.

(BOTH LAUGH)

My mom says you are good
at keeping secrets.

Is that true?

Yes, I can keep a good secret.

To us saint is my Haitian name.

(IN XHOSA)

(IN ENGLISH)
My name is Prince T'Challa,

son of King T'Challa.

(BORN AGAIN BY RIHANNA PLAYING)

I give my heart to this place

I give my soul or whatever it takes

Never run away

I've got enough angels to storm the gates

I'm not afraid

Behold the brave

And I'll have it, no other way

I missed the emergence
and these moments of you

The mere reflection of me

That mirror can't change its View

So until those rivers run out

it runs through me wherever you are

I'll be there

We carry on

Born again

I give my heart to this place

I give my heart to this place

I give my whole soul and whatever it takes

Never run away

And I'd relive this

Just to see your face again

I know that you'll do the same

Born again

Just tell me what I need to do

I'd die and come back
just to love you

Just tell me I'm begging you

Just tell me what I need to do

Oh
