All language subtitles for Zoo 01 X 02 - Fight or Flight

Fore centuries, mankind has
been the dominant species.

We've domesticated animals,

locked them up,
killed them for sport.

But what if, all across the globe,

the animals decided no more?

What if they finally decided
to fight back?

Previously on Zoo...

Rise and shine, Jackson.

We have a dozen impatient Swedes

waiting for us
to show them the rhinos.

Abraham!

(gun fires)

My name's Jackson.

- Chloe.
- Was your husband...?

No, my husband is back in Paris.

Although he never
became my husband.

I learned he was
having an affair.

(growls)
(screams)

Excuse me, Mitch Morgan?

I'm Jamie Campbell.
We spoke on the phone.

Right-- L.A. Telegraph.

You're the animal coroner?

Veterinary pathologist.

You want to know what incited

the lions to kill the zookeeper.

JAMIE:
And the men downtown, yeah.

That makes two of us.

Apparently, there's a rash

of missing cats in Brentwood.

This is an elementary school.

MITCH: Yeah, but in the summer,
it's a day camp.

And camp starts tomorrow.

My father made all these tapes.

He talks about
a defiant pupil--

indisputable proof
that his theory was correct.

Maybe my father wasn't
entirely crazy.

Jackson Oz, you're under arrest.

- For what?
- Interference with lawful hunting.

You got to be kidding me!

(lion growling softly)

(cats meowing)

We should call Animal Control.

And tell them what?

What? This,
the-the cats,

- the kids.
- Yeah, okay.

This is weird, maybe even
a little creepy,

but cats have been known
to socialize in groups.

We even have a name for it.

It's called
a "clowder."

- A clowder?
- Yeah, a clowder.

Now, cats aren't
all that social,

so you don't
see it too often, but...

often enough they
gave it a name.

Mitch, there's
something going on here.

Yes, there's something going
on here, but I can assure you

there's a rational explanation
for it, all right?

Okay, then explain
those lions from the zoo.

Those lions did what lions do.

They acted "lion-y."

Smug.

Smug?

You don't see it too often,

but often enough
that they gave it a name.

All right, let's
call animal rescue,

but you're gonna do
all the talking.

You might reach an actual
human being by Tuesday.

OPERATOR: Thank you for calling
the Animal Control hotline.

To continue in English,
press one.

If this is an emergency,
please hang up and dial 911.

For wild animals,
please press one.

For domestic animals, press two.

Okay, here's your explanation.

Hello. Animal Control. This is Becca.
Honeysuckle.

How can I help you?

Yes, hello.

Uh, I'm calling
to report a... um...

(hisses, meows)

- Hello?
- Uh, could you send a unit

to Sunshine Elementary School?

It's on Boon Avenue
in Brentwood.

There's been a, um...

Ma'am?

There's a lot of cats
in the trees.

And I think
that someone needs...

I'm sorry. Cats?

Yes, cats.

All right,
we'll send someone out.

That would be great.

Thank you so much.

They're on their way.

Well, this should be
embarrassing.

- (cat yowls) MITCH: Whoa!
- (Screams)

(hisses)

I'm telling you,
it's the honeysuckle.

See, honeysuckle
to cats is like...

you know, it's like catnip.

Do you think...?

What?

They heard you calling
the authorities?

Hey.

Hey, Kavimba.

Listen to me,
listen to me, listen.

Look, you have
to let me out of here.

Honestly, Jackson,

I am of the mind
to keep you here all week.

I understand, but you can't.

You have to let me out now.

You cannot continue to interfere
with the tourists.

We have to get back out there

and figure out what's going on
with those lions.

Look, you have to shut down
the safari camps in the valley.

At least until we
can properly assess

what the hell is going on out...

We go through this every time
there's a prolonged dry season.

The herbivores go searching

to quench their thirst
in places they shouldn't.

The big cats follow,
and sometimes people get hurt.

This isn't normal dry season
wandering, and you know that.

This entire town...
this entire region exists

because people want
to see the lions!

You exist because the people
want to see the lions!

My best friend died out there.

And I'm very sorry about that.

I went to grade school
with Abraham.

He was my friend, too.

(door opens)

Shut down the camps.

Hey, there.

Oh, hey.

Are you leaving?

Yeah.

They took my statement
about the lions,

and now I'm going back to Paris.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

You're no longer under arrest?

No, not for the moment.

Uh, listen, can I, um,
get your contact information?

A phone, e-mail,

whatever.

It was nice to meet you.

Thank you for rescuing me.

No, uh, Chloe, uh,
I-I think you misunderstand me.

I'm not...

There has to be
a further investigation

of what happened out there,
so I may need to...

speak with you.

Of course.

Yeah.

0-6-35...

What is it?

(cell phone rings)

(lion growling)

(cell phone continues to ring)

What do you think
of this, Andraz?

You like him?

- He's a soldier.
- No.

(dog barks)

WOMAN: Lord, help us
with this adoption.

MAN: What did
you expect, luv?

He's four.

I just don't know how we shall
ever hope to succeed at this.

MAN:
Uh, no, no, no.

No, come, come, come, come.

(speaking Slovenian)
Shh, shh, shh.

Hey, hey, it's all right.

Would it be possible, sir,

to remove the dog from the lobby
until we leave?

He good dog.
He no bark.

Appreciate that, but still.

Shh, shh, shh.

The last thing we need is
for Andraz to be bitten by a dog

the first day
he's under our supervision.

We have two more days before the
adoption decree goes through.

How are we going to entertain
him for two more days?

He doesn't even speak English.

What do you want
to do tomorrow, Andraz?

Hmm, son?
(boy chatters)

What?

Excellent choice.

Tomorrow, we go.

Is this where you saw him last?

In there.

KAVIMBA:
Go.

Keep a sharp eye out.

Yes, sir.

(grass rustles)

The driver's body's still
in there, but Abe's gone.

So now what?

JACKSON:
We keep looking.

It's fresh blood.

It must be Abe's.

Can't be more than 24 hours old.

There's a trail of it.

Oh, my God.

What is it?

Oz, wait!

Go, go, go, go!

In the jeep! In the jeep now!

Go! Go!
(engine starts)

He's there, he's there!

_

Whoa.

Are...

are you kidding me?
(stammers)

I'm two days late on the rent.

It's not my call.
It's my mother's.

This is the sixth month in a row
you've been late.

No. No, no, no, that's...

that's impossible.
Sixth?

Maybe the fifth,

but definitely not the sixth.

Listen, man, I could probably...

you know...

What?

Talk to my moms?

If you'd maybe want
to grab a drink.

Maybe a meal?

You like soft-shell crab?

Dude, I'd rather sleep
in the street.

MAN:
In that case,

I'm afraid I can't help you.

My mom says you gotta go.

All right, we got you, buddy.
We got you.

Grab his legs.
I got his arms.

Okay. I got him.

JACKSON: Steady. Okay, steady.
Steady. Careful.

The ridge...
It's all right.

Hey, we got you.
Take it easy, buddy. We got you.

The ridge...

He's saying something
about the ridge.

We've got a problem.

Lions!

There are too many.
Too many for just one rifle.

Unlodge his foot from there.

(lion growls)
There's no time!

Nice and easy, nice and easy.
Come on.

We gotta go, we gotta go.
I'm going to shoot.

You shoot, they'll charge.
Do not shoot!

Then hurry!

Careful, careful.
He's injured.

If I don't shoot now,

we don't stand a prayer!

- You got him?
- I got him.

He's in.
Now let's go. Now!

Come on!
Move!

- Come on!
- Let's go! Let's go!

All right, let's go!
Hold him still!

Come on, come on! Drive!
All right, move!

Come on!
Let's go! Go, go, go!

I don't understand why
they're not pouncing.

(snarling)

(trainer shouts commands)

(audience applauds)
(low growling)

(trainer shouts commands)

(whip cracks)

(applause)

(trainer shouts commands)

You do know this is unnatural.

What?

Forcing a creature
to do something that...

doesn't come instinctively.

(drumroll plays)

(whip cracks)

(applause)

(roars)

(audience gasps, laughs)

MITCH: All right, so
we've been talking

this whole hour
about animal behavior.

The norms...

...and the deviations.

That's it for today.

Don't forget,
your papers are due on Friday.

On which is
the greater motivator:

hormones or pheromones?

(low chatter)

You know, I still want
to cut myself every time

I even think
about having to explain

to those Animal Control officers

why we called them in a panic

about a bunch of empty trees.

I found something.

There's a chemical
called 2,4-D.

It's known to affect
the neurotransmitters

in animals' brains.

- Meaning it could cause aberrant behavior.
- Exactly.

Now, 2,4-D is currently
being used in pesticides

made by Reiden Global.

The beef those lions were fed

came from cows that fed on grain

that was treated with pesticides

from Reiden Global.

This is all... very riveting.

Wait. There's more.

- I was so hoping there would be.
- Last month,

L.A. County started using
a similar pesticide

to contain
a rare mosquito outbreak.

Want to guess where?

In honor of
conspiracy nuts everywhere,

- I'm gonna guess Brentwood.
- Yes!

Brentwood.

Fine.

Let's just say,
for a second--

for a second--
that you're right

and this chemical is causing
the aberrant behavior.

We could find out for sure

by taking a closer look
at the lion's brains.

Great. Let's do it.

Let's nail these
bastards to the wall.

You are thoroughly obsessed
with Reiden Global,

aren't you?
I mean, in ways

that go beyond just
"I hate corporations."

Yeah, I am.

May I ask why?

Because of what they did
to my hometown.

What'd they do to your hometown?

They murdered it.

(people talking indistinctly
in distance)

(monitor beeping rhythmically)

MAN: Jackson and the
search party are back.

JACKSON:
How is he?

WOMAN:
Abe's gonna be fine.

No internal injuries.

No bite marks.

Several lacerations,
some cuts and bruises.

Can I see him?

In a couple of hours.

I gave him a sedative.

How is it possible?

How is what possible?

Somehow, those lions
dragged him up into a tree.

Well, that's hardly
inconceivable.

They do it with their young,

they drag them
by the back of their necks.

I mean, sure,

Abe is considerably
larger than a lion's cub...

But it's as though
they purposely went

out of their way not
to mortally wound him,

not to kill him.

Why would they do that?

I don't know.

But I do know

that he was incredibly lucky.

(sighs)

So, did you find the others?

JACKSON: Yeah. 22 dead
by the river delta.

WOMAN:
Oh, no.

Well, if the bodies
are gonna start arriving,

I have to prepare
the loved ones.

Are you okay, Jackson?

I'm fine.

Really, Mom,

I'm fine.

(panting)

(distorted roaring)
(gasps)

(panting)
(roaring)

(roars)

(gasping)

(phone ringing)

(phone beeps)

Jackson!
Jackson!

How's Abraham now?

Your cousin's gonna be fine.

My father's recordings;
did you bring them?

Yes, of course.

Good.

Come with me.

I think there's one about
fight or flight.

- Do you know what I'm talking about?
- Yes.

I've watched them all.

They're brilliant.

Fight or flight.

Do we run

or do we strike back?

That's...

ROBERT: What do we do
in the face of fear?

Do we run

or do we strike back?

This question resides in the
most primal aspect of the brain,

both humans and animals alike.

But it won't be long

before the animals realize

that they no longer
need to flee.

That they have the capacity

and the capability
to rule the planet.

That they no longer
need to fear mankind.

(squeals)

See? It's not scared of me.

It knows...

that all they need to do
is fight

and they can take down
the human race.

(monitor beeping rhythmically)

Hey, rafiki.

How you feeling?

I suppose I'll live.

As long as my beloved doctor

doesn't tell me otherwise.

120/80.

You're perfect.

(chuckles)

You see that?

I am perfect.

Kukaa karibu.

You saved my life, rafiki.

I only did what you'd do for me.

I don't know.

All those lions.

I think I would have left you
and ran. (chuckles)

What happened out there, Abe?

How did you end up in that tree?

I went into the safari bus,

and I saw...

a man lying in the aisle, dead.

That's why I didn't see
the lion come in.

(roaring)

So I made my peace.

It was my time.

That's okay.

Everyone has their time.

At least I would be with
my baby brothers again.

(roars)

(roaring)

ABRAHAM:
I must have bumped my head,

because the next thing
I remember,

he was dragging me.

And then I realized his plan
for me was worse than death.

I was to be food for the pride.

But they didn't
eat me just then.

Instead, they dragged me
up into the tree

that you found me in.

(low snarling)

(roaring)

And they retreated
up the ridge...

...and waited and watched.

I came in and out
of consciousness,

and I prayed that I would die

before they had decided
they had toyed with me enough

and that it was time to feed.

Next thing I knew,
you were there helping me down.

I don't think that they were
ever going to eat you.

I think that they wanted
us to find you.

I think that they wanted someone
to spread their message.

I don't understand.

Spread what message?

That they're no longer
afraid of us.

(gasps quietly)

(snarling, roars)

Polnjene zivali.

That's it, Andraz,
the show is over.

Polnjene zivali.

- What's he saying?
- Don't know.

I'm suddenly wishing some genius
had thought to invent

an English-to-Slovenian
smartphone app.

(chuckling):
Yeah.

Andraz.

- Andraz?
- Andraz!

Andraz!
Andraz!

Andraz!
Andraz!

(tigers snarling)

(low snarling)

(people talking indistinctly
in distance)

(hooting, screeching)

I'm sorry, but the lions aren't
here-- they've been destroyed.

MITCH:
What, already?

Yeah, both corpses last night.

On whose orders?

Uh, the city council.

Or maybe the zoo board.

I'm not sure.

It means nothing.

Oh, come on.

Are you still living
in Venice, Mitchell?

Uh, yes.

It's convenient to
Westwood... classes.

I love it there.

Tell me, Mitchell,
uh, could we get

the same results
from a different lion

that was fed here at
the zoo? A live one?

There are certain tests I could
run that wouldn't be harmful.

What is this all about?

To be honest, we're trying
to get to the bottom

of what happened with
those lions the other day.

ZOOKEEPER: Yeah, there's
a full investigation underway,

but I kind of think
it's a waste of time.

Every now and then,
lions just act "lion-y."

Wow, did you guys go
to the same orientation seminar?

Just don't want it
to happen again.

Yeah, of course.

Mitchell, um...

do you think maybe it might
be possible for Aspen

to arrange for us
to borrow a lion?

- Wh-What? No.
- No, just for a little bit.

- No, that's not...
- Just to run those tests.

I don't think that's...
Yeah, sure.

Of course.

Anything to help.

(rooster crowing,
chickens clucking)

"Kukaa karibu."

I've heard you and
Abraham say that before.

It's something
his mother taught him.

It means stay close
and take care

of the people you care about.

You're very good at that.

What if he was right?

Who?

Robert.

Is that where you got that idea

about the lions no longer
being afraid of us?

From your father?

I was watching
the recordings he made, okay?

At least the ones I have.

Now, the flash drives are
numbered "one of 12," "two..."

Jackson.

But I only have
five flash drives.

- Where are the other seven?
- Jackson.

Your father's ideas
were rejected

by every one of his peers.

- Harvard revoked his chair.
- What if they're wrong?

- What if they're all wrong?
- He was the laughingstock...

What if everyone else is wrong?

22 people are dead
from those lion attacks.

Twenty-two.

What if something
in his work could keep

other people from dying?

It can't.

Because there was
no basis in fact

for any of it.

Your father lost his
tether on reality.

He was delusional.

- Okay, I know.
- He was...

I know, I know.

It's the reason I made you
take this job, remember?

It's the reason we're here,
to get away from him; I know.

Then why are you bringing
all of this back?

I'm not.

I think it's already here.

(low snarling)

(snarling)

MAN:
Andraz! Andraz!

Andraz!

You scared us.

You scared us, all right?

(sighs)
You scared us, Andraz.

Polnjene zivali.

MAN:
Polnjene zivali.

Polnjene zivali, yes?

Yeah.

it means "souvenir."

(sobbing)

(sobbing continues)

What...?

What is it?

Dear Lord.

I need to see my son.

Right away.

14 years out here, I've seen
five bodies mauled by lions.

Today, nearly two dozen.

It's tragic.

Yes, it is.

But that's not what concerns me.

Lions kill for two reasons,

but these people,
they didn't pose a threat,

and they weren't
killed for food.

Something else.

When lions kill,
they go for the throat.

It's quick, it's efficient.

But these bodies,

every one of them has
the femoral arteries slashed.

These people, they died
slow painful deaths.

But it was several lions.

Several.

How would they all...?

Change the way they kill?
They wouldn't.

And yet, they did.

You've always had
a lot in common

with your father, Jackson.

Even when you were a child,
you were...

brilliant like him

and curious and determined.

We're all a product
of nature and nurture,

our genes and
our experiences and

I've already lost

one of the men I love to this.

I know it's irrational...

but now I'm afraid
I may lose the other.

Tokyo?

What's in Tokyo?

The flash drives that you have,

they were sent to us by Harvard.

They were among the things
that your father left behind

when they asked him to resign.

But after he died,

I got this address
from the executor of his will.

At some point,

your father found
his way to Japan.

Whatever is left
of his research,

this is where you'll find it.

If something's really
going on with the lions,

I'm not just leaving you here.

Once it's safe,

then I'll go.

I don't think
there's time for that.

Look, I'm not saying

that I think
your father was right.

In fact,
I pray to God he wasn't.

But if he is...

(scoffs)

...this isn't gonna stop
with just the lions.

(thick accent):
Okay.

One final paper.

Good.

Cestitke.

Congratulations.

Congratulations!

(laughs)

I'm a mum.

You're a mum.

(laughs)

I'm a mum.

(dog barks)

Polnjene zivali.

(speaks Slovenian)
(growling)

Come here, pup.

Oh... Don't fear,

I'll get it.

It's okay. Come here.

Come here.

Daddy will find it.

- Okay?
- Okay.

(horns honking, traffic sounds)

Max!

Come here, boy!

(claps hands, whistles)

Max!

(quietly):
Damn it.

(whining)

Max!

Come on.

Would've been better
to shave him,

but I didn't think
to bring a razor.

All right.

Make yourself useful.

Attach these to the electrodes.

Red to red, yellow to yellow,

and so on.

Do they teach you
this in vet school?

Nope. Med school.

You went to med school, too?

I did.

But I gave it up
once I realized that...

that meant doing
what doctors do:

primarily dealing with people.

(beeping, gasps)

(monitor beeping rhythmically)

It works.

That was funny,

by the way.

What's it saying?

It's, uh...

spiking in
the hyper-gamma frequencies.

What does that mean?

I don't know.

Because lion's brains don't have
hyper-gamma frequencies.

(cub snarling quietly)

Mitch...

He's awake.

(cub snarling quietly)

(phone rings)
Hello.

MITCH:
It's me.

I think I underdosed
the lion cub.

I gave him 3.9 milligrams
of Zolazepam

20 minutes ago.

Should've kept him
asleep for hours,

but he's-he's
waking up already.

(whispering):
Would you hold-hold him still?

- I'm trying.
- I just want to make sure

it's okay to give him
another dose.

Yeah, that's fine.
Uh, but I've gotta go.

We've got a bit
of a crisis here.

For some reason, all
the big cats are going crazy.

Crazy how?

I don't know.
(lions snarling)

About 20 minutes ago,
they started howling

and they haven't
settled down since.

(snarling)

MITCH:
That started at 10:00?

Yeah. Why?
MITCH: Nothing.

Coincidence.

(roaring)

(roaring over phone speaker)

(roaring)

Uh, Mitchell, I have to go.

What was that?

I don't know.

But I think--

and I can't believe
I'm about to say this--

I think these lions are...

communicating with each other.

Long-distance.

(chain rattles)

All right.

Stay.

(low growling)

Stay.

Stay.

That's a good boy.

(whining)

(snarling)

(growling)

(growls)

(barks)

(barking)

(snarling)

Rafiki.

Hey.

- Should you be out here?
- No.

Not at all.

But I spoke to your mother

and she told me about Japan.

Abe... no.

Kukaa karibu, rafiki.

If you go,

I go with you.

I don't think so.
I appreciate...

You have known me
for a dozen years now.

Do you know me to be a man
that is easily dissuaded?

Besides...

I think Japanese women
are very sexy.

(laughs)

Yeah.

I'm sure they're gonna
find you sexy, too.

In a beaten-up kind of way.

Yes.

I am a very rugged man.

(laughs)

(stifles a groan)

(engine starts)

(dogs barking, howling)

ANDRAZ:
Dada?

That's right.

Dada.

Mama.

Mama. Dada, Mama.

Yes.

(scratching at door)

(dogs barking, howling
in distance)

- MAN: Chloe Tousignant?
- Oui.

That's not important.

What is important is Africa,

and what happened to you there.

The second matter

involves dogs in Slovenia.

I have reason to believe
the two events are connected

and that you may be
uniquely suited to help us.

Who are you?

Who are "us"?

If you will come with me,

I'll tell you everything.

But we should go straightaway.

I'm afraid--

and this is not
an overstatement--

that the fate of the world

may hinge on it.
