All language subtitles for highlander_animated_s02e08_lord_for_a_day

Seven centuries have passed since the
earth plunged into darkness. Seven

centuries since the Jethiter swore to
regain for man his lost knowledge and

freedom. All the immortals took the
oath. All except one who dominates the

world. But soon an immortal will come to
confront him. His name is Quentin

MacLeod. He is the Highlander.

What do you want, Asclepios?

Good to see you too, Arrak.

I've just located a jettitor who has
precious information that I know Lord

Cortan would dearly desire.

And? And you're going to snap to it,
head out there, and bring him back

the Highlander beats you to it.

How dare you!

I take orders from Cortan, and only from
Cortan.

Of course.

You haven't heard, have you?

Cortan has put me in charge of this
mission. You don't want to let him down

again, do you?

Anyway, that's what you're here for,
Aarak, to follow orders to each his own

task.

Pushed me too far this time, Asclepius.

You're nothing but a pea -brained thug,
Aarak.

You apologize for that.

Or this thug will cut you into
mincemeat.

An apology, or I'll run you through like
a pig.

Never!

Then prepare to die.

Enough.

Iraq, I want you to leave at once and
bring back the Jettitor.

Eternal power to Kortat.

And our terrifying warrior becomes as
meek as a slave.

They've reached the plant's door, Zolt.

Nothing will stop them. We have to
leave.

Impossible.

I'm the keeper of this power plant.

Its secrets must never fall into
Cortan's hands.

But we can't stop them. I know.

I'm going to lock myself in here.

It'll take them a while to force their
way inside.

You must hurry and find Ramirez.

He's bringing the Highlander. They can't
be far away now.

Here's Holt. Take my sword.

I'll take good care of her.

I can't wait to meet him, Ramirez.

Well, you'll have to wait till tomorrow
morning, McCloud.

Someone's coming!

Who could it be?

Salt!

Ramirez! The hunters have surrounded the
power plant!

Look! If Volta entrusted his sword to
his servant, then he must be in need of

help. Blast it!

If Cortan gets control of this energy
source, he'll be more powerful than

We've got to move fast.

Well, what are we waiting for? Come on,
Ramirez.

We've covered the entire plant, Major,
all right? Except for the stack.

Excellent. That must be where he's
hiding.

Too many of them.

Is there another way in?

That's it.

Then it's no good.

What do you mean it's no good? We can't
just watch and do nothing.

We'll have to think of another way.

We must stop Cortan from getting hold of
Volta, whatever it takes.

You just have to give Cortan something
else to think about, that's all.

That's all?

And how do you suggest we do that, young
lady?

By challenging him to a duel on the Hill
of Oath.

After all, I'm what Korten wants more
than anything.

You're out of your mind. You're not
ready.

Whoa there, you hot -tempered matador.

Who says I have to show up?

I have a message of utmost importance
for Lord Cortan.

Okay, you can go in.

The Highlander sent me.

He's ready to confront Lord Cortan on
the Hill of Oath.

The MacLeod emblem.

dares to challenge me to a duel at last.

The moment I've been waiting for.

It worked.

Sir, Lord Kortan wants to see you at
once.

wish to see me, Lord Cortan?

I'm leaving the city, Asclepium. You are
in charge. You have absolute power in

my absence.

Which also means you alone will be to
blame if anything goes wrong.

I'm too honored, Lord Cortan.

Lord of Mokanda.

Sir, I'm so happy for you. At last
you're where you deserve to be. Even

brute, a rat, will be under your command
now.

Absolute power, he said.

No unauthorized entrance.

Orders from Lord Asclepios.

Lord Asclepios?

What's going on, Asclepios?

In Lord Cortan's absence, I make the
rules.

The entire city owes me respect and
obedience, and that includes you, Arrak.

Hand your prisoner over to me. That's an
order.

You've gone mad.

This is high treason. I rule over
Maganda.

Obey me or answer to Kortan's wrath.

Oh. Hand the prisoner over.

To lordship.

Oh, yes.

You're my prisoner.

Hey,

this coin has no value in the world of
the disinherited.

The value of things is not always
engraved on their surface.

is behind the glass organ room in a
hydra cell.

What's a hydra cell?

Top security cells that no one can
unlock except Asclepius.

The only way to get them open would be
to destroy the glass organs themselves.

Hmm. Do you have many men in your
organization?

Quite a few, but not enough to take on
Asclepius' men.

Asclepius? Forten has given him absolute
power.

And Arax infuriated.

Hmm. Interesting.

The hunters are the only ones who could
hold out against Asclepios.

What do you mean?

We're going to play a little game with
our old friend, the rack.

Keep the Hydra Plus flowing, buddy.

Today, the drinks are on me.

I've done good business with Lord
Asclepios.

Looks like he's Magonda's new ruler.

Here's to your health and the Lord
Asclepios!

Asclepios! Hydroplus levels have dropped
way below normal on the amusement

floor. Locate the trouble zone. Send
down a patrol unit.

Go on, friend.

Drink and make the most of it. Soon
you'll be taking orders from Asclepios.

Never! I tell you, we're loyal to Major
Arak.

You're way over your Hydro Plus quota in
here. We're closing this place down,

and that's an order.

We don't take orders from one of the
Sclappios puppets.

Hunters! Don't let these traitors boss
you around!

has been questioned?

Send down reinforcements and throw the
troublemakers into jail.

These two look just fine.

I just hope a rack follows through.

This is the limit, Asclepius.

You put my men under arrest?

They have broken the laws of Magonda,
for which I alone am responsible.

I insist they be set free at once.

Huh. Out of the question. Try to
remember, Arrak, you're in no position

insist on anything at all.

The traitor.

He thinks he can pull rank on me.

I'll show him.

Squadron C to the bureaucrat's floor.

I repeat, Squadron C to the bureaucrat's
floor.

He's hiding in the hypercell chamber.

It's impossible for us to follow him.
The only way to open that door is to

neutralize the glass organs.

But then the entire city would grind to
a halt.

Not for long, Major.

A few minutes, then the emergency system
will take over.

We've got to act quickly, sir.

All right, do it.

Destroy the machines!

We've done it.

Nothing to fear now, Volta.

No.

You'll pay for this. Wait till Cortan
finds out. Dump them in the trap.

Let me go. Hurry. We've got to get out
of here. What has been going on here?

Lord Cortan, Asclepios has attempted to
take over Magonda.

Fortunately, everything is... I'll be
your head.

The Highlander.

They're here.

It was a trap, Lord Cortan. Ramirez
tricked us to help Volta escape.

I've just seen them running off.

Get the city working again. Stop them
from leaving.

Let go!

We have to wait for the emergency system
to warm up. I have to program other

units. Well then, do it!

Cortan is back. I feel it.

You have to help us out of here, Sven.

Hunters have covered every exit.

The simplest way out will be through the
plumbing system. Follow me.

All exits are blocked, Lord

Cortan.

Well, everything's fine now, Lord
Cortan.

Wakanda's energy is back.

make it. The water's coming.

The quickening!

The energy from the quickening will hold
back the current. You deserve to

receive my knowledge, Quentin. You have
proved that you are worthy, Quentin

MacLeod. On the oath sworn by the
Jettitors, I today pass on to you the

knowledge of the nuclear energy. The
knowledge which allows man to power

cities.

May the knowledge be shared.

there can be only one.

McCloud is cunning, taking advantage of
your power -hungry counselors like that.

Very clever.

You all dream about power.

Even you, the fool.

But remember, I hold the power.

Until someone dares to take it away from
me.

Thirsty, with mountain streams
everywhere.

Well, I think he's taken a liking to
hydroplast.

Oh, no!
