All language subtitles for Life on Mars S01E17 Life Is a Rock

B .B. Bumble and the Stingers, Mark the
Looper, Rachel Singers, Ronnie Mack, a

twang and Eddie Hitzman, Ringwood going
steady, take it easy, take me high,

high, high, high, high, high, high,
high, high, high, high, high, high,

high, high, high, high, high, high,

Woo -hoo!

That's right, Sammy. Shake your money,
maker. Come on, Sammy.

Go, Sammy!

Yeah,

Sammy!

Go, Jimmy!

Just give me another six hours.

Wendy, what are you doing in my bed?

I think there's a mouse in my apartment.
I couldn't sleep there.

Wendy, when we... He exchanged keys. It
was in case of emergency.

Since when are mouse droppings not an
emergency?

Okay, was it a mouse or mouse droppings?

Mouse droppings are like the
encyclopedia salesman's brochures of the

world. They let you know that they were
there and that they're coming back soon.

Yep.

Why do mice and only mice get droppings
when every other critter gets poop or

crap or turd?

Well, rabbits... I've also been bestowed
with droppings, fats of guano and cows

of dung. Right.

And then there's manure. I always forget
about manure. Yeah, Wendy, this is not

how I prefer to start my day.

Discussing the species of feces.

I had the dream again.

Of the future?

Every night now.

Different versions of me being there.

What do you think it means?

I think it means I'm further away than I
ever was.

Or maybe rather possibly.

Maybe rather possibly what?

Maybe rather possibly it means that you
are close to going back.

My name is Dan Tyler.

I was in an accident.

I woke up in 1973.

I don't know how or why I'm here, but
whatever's happened, it's like I've

on a different planet.

Now maybe if I can work out the reason,
I can get home.

Because people have got to know whether
or not their president's a crook.

Well, I'm not a crook.

I've burned everything I've got.

Let me just say this.

It's the end of days, Ray. Not so fast.

I believe him. He ain't no crook.

You'll see. Dick Nixon's in for the long
run.

Or maybe you won't have Nixon to kick
around anymore.

We're good this time.

He's never going to get over this.

What's funny, Chris?

Well, I voted for McGovern.

Don't tell Ray.

125 Squad, Detective Tyler.

Hello, Sam.

Still want to go home?

Of course.

I'm going to need you to do three
things, Sam.

You do these three things, you'll be
back.

Three things?

First, I'm going to need you to save
yourself, Sam.

What do you mean? You have to save
yourself.

That's the first thing.

I'll be in touch.

Hello?

Hello? Hello?

Come on. Detective, I won't cry.

Rose. Please.

Are you okay? What is it?

It's Sammy.

My Sammy. What about him?

He's gone.

His father came and took him.

And he's gone.

You're saying Vick has been coming
around and you neglected to let us know.

He told me it was all a
misunderstanding.

That he had been wrongly accused.

That the cops, that you people, were
trying to railroad him. And you believed

him. Lady, how many times does one guy
have to crap on your head before you

wearing it as a hat?

Ray, what?

Easy.

Okay.

Rose, just tell us what happened,
please.

He came by today.

He brought me flowers.

A toy for Sammy.

He said that he would...

Be able to fix everything, that
everything was going to be okay, and

could be a family again.

And then he asked me to go fetch him one
of those ice cream cups he likes.

And I went into the kitchen, and then
when I came back, he was gone with him.

All right, put out an alarm.

Moskowitz, have the troops looking for
Vic Tyler yet again.

Considered armed and dangerous, and he's
got his kid in tow. Got it.

Ray.

Look at those cavemen go.

Rose, do you have any idea where Vic
might have taken little Sammy?

He has a room in a basement down on
Carrot.

A little room. Maybe they're there.

When you find Sammy, will you give him
this, please?

This favorite.

Don't worry, Rose.

We're going to find Sammy.

You and he are going to have a long life
together.

And when you're gray and old, he's going
to read Gulliver's Travels to you.

How can you be so sure?

and rain crystal on again.

You okay, detective?

Yeah.

No.

We gotta find old Sammy.

Big Tyler is...

This

guy shot you. I appreciate that.

Five minutes shot me since you've been
on a job.

I swore I'd hunt them down, each and
every one. Even those that were in jail

dead. Until I realized that was a fool's
mission.

Revenge is for the weak.

The strong, they brush it off and say,
thanks for the gunshot, dinkweed.

But I didn't even feel it.

Family.

I feel connected to them.

You got family, Tyler?

And Hyde?

Nope.

Not anymore.

Not so much as you'd hope.

Well, maybe that's why you came to the
125.

Because we're just a big, brick
-blasting, crime -stopping, ass -kicking

Aren't we, then?

I suppose you are. I suppose we are, you
mean.

I suppose we are, I mean.

Boss, what if I told you that I don't
know what or where Hyde is?

And what if I told you that I was hit by
a car in 2008 and

I woke up here?

What would you say about all that?

I say...

That explains everything.

Yeah.

We're gonna have to wait for Chris and
Ray.

Let's get this candle lit.

You really been shot five times, Gene?

Shot five times. Shot at?

351 times.

You count?

Two things you always count, Tyler.

Got shots?

Bless.

You take the front, I'll take the back.

Up right there, cowboy.

Don't move. Back it up.

Put him on.

Was the king.

How you doing, kiddo?

Daddy's home.

Hey, Bumper, grab that for me.

So am I here, Sammy.

He's just sleeping.

He's our buddy. He's a good guy, but
he's always tired.

I got a trip, Sammy, huh? You want to
take a trip? You want to go far away?

mommy should come meet us. We'll have a
real good time.

You know, we'll eat ice cream and hump
her crabs all day on the beach. That

sound good, huh?

That sounds good.

That sounds good.

Look at Bumper.

No. No.

Get him in the van. Come on, let's go.

Your husband was wanted by the law.

And you let him just come in and out of
your home whenever he wanted without

letting us know.

Which is called hindering prosecution
and can land you square in the pokey.

Sir.

What is it, Nonuts? Maybe we should take
it easy on her.

We got a wit that we've got two guys.
One that matches Vic's description with

little kid carrying a drunk into the
van. He didn't catch the place.

You see?

Our man was taken.

I know. I feel terrible about Detective
Skywalker.

Who? What?

Detective Skywalker.

Yeah, we don't know who that is.

Luke. Luke. Luke Skywalker.

I am not in a pleasant mood, lady. So
you either tell us where that scheming,

gutted, sniped husband of yours took my
guy, or you'll be baking tuna casserole

for 300 ugly broads in a crappy kitchen
in a women's penitentiary. I don't know.

Don't you think I would tell you if I
knew he's got my son?

Where's the boy? The boy's just fine.
Where?

You think I hurt my own son?

Is that what you think?

That's what we call irony.

You're a freak. You know that?

You're one fine freak.

But I recognize that.

The first time I ever laid eyes on you.

You know what else you are?

You're the missing piece of the puzzle.

And I didn't realize it until you came
galloping into the flop this morning.

What the hell are you talking about?

We're making big moves.

A brand new operation.

We're gonna make so much money that
we're gonna be able to make a cash offer

the whole island of Manhattan.

We're gonna eat roast beef three times a
day.

All I need.

There's a man inside.

A cop on my pad.

And that's where you fit in.

I can't do this, Vic. Sure, I can.

And with your help.

You know, you played as Boy Scout, but
you're really a demon. I can see that.

You're a bloodthirsty mongrel.

You're depraved and you're furious
because you want things to be different.

can see that, too.

Because after all, it takes one to know
one.

Boy.

Lieutenant Hunt asked me to talk to you.

Twirl to twirl, as he put it.

I gotta say, I don't know how you work
for those men.

Well, I just pretend it's far, far in
the future, and they work for me.

Rose, I need you to think.

Where would Vic take them?

Where would he take little Sammy?

I don't know.

I don't know anything about him anymore.
We've been together 11 years, married

for seven, but he's a stranger to me
now.

Detective Skywalker, he talks about you
and Sammy.

You're on his mind a lot.

Why is that, do you think?

I think it's because in a lot of ways,

You remind him of his own mother.

It's funny you say that.

Why?

Sometimes.

When I'm with him, Detective Skywalker,
I swear... It's like I'm looking at my

own Sammy.

All grown up.

It's occurred to me many times.

As a mother, you have a vision of what
your child is going to be like as an

adult.

And for me, my idea, my ideal of little
Sammy as a man

always goes to Detective Skywalker.

How silly, I know.

Not at all.

This wasn't always like this.

We had really great times in the
beginning. Really great times.

You were happy.

Very happy.

When were you the happiest?

Not so much when as where.

Before Sammy was born, we used to summer
in this lovely little seaside town.

In fact, it's where Sammy was conceived.

What was the name of the town, Rose?

Hyde.

The name of the town was Hyde.

He wanted to say goodbye to your father.

He just chose which father.

You're almost there, Sam.

You're so close.

What is this plan?

I had to bring her here.

She missed her hide.

Yeah, Detective Tyler. Get me Lieutenant
Hunt.

Detective, where are you? You all right?
It's Rizzo.

Yeah, I'm... Hey there, Sam.

Back to the egg, huh, fella?

What do you want?

What is it?

It's the mothership, Sam.

It's where it all begins and ends.

Why don't you just tell me who you are?

It's you, isn't it?

It's Frank Morgan.

I told you there were three things you
have to do. You're on your way to doing

the first thing. Now I need you to do
the second thing. What's the second

The second thing, you gotta duck.

What? Just duck.

Enter!

I can't get the Hyde Police Department
on the phone.

Just rings and rings and rings.

That's because the entire Hyde police
force is comprised of one fat man and a

Doberman pincher.

So what do we do?

Well, what we shouldn't do is start
jumping to conclusions that just because

-Nuts thinks all roads lead to Hyde,
that all roads lead to Hyde. I'm telling

you, Sam isn't Hyde. Tell us why you're
telling us.

What, didn't you know?

Her and the spaceman have a connection.

They're, uh, what do you call them?
Kindred spirits.

No nuts burns herself on the stove and
Tyler winters two towns over. Right, no

nuts? Not at all. Oh, please.

They're in love.

Tyler burps and she looks at him like
he's singing a melody. I mean, to me,

whole thing is nauseating.

All right, all right.

Is that true, Norris?

No, sir.

Then what makes you so sure they're in a
hide?

I know it, sir.

I know it in my bones.

There and hide.

It goes like this. If you don't tell me,
I kill you.

I'll kill you with my own bare hands.
You know what an awful way that is to

Beating to death.

Some say it's the worst. You know why?

Because it really, really hurts.

Wait a minute, for God's sakes. Wait a
minute.

We got a boat.

We're going to take this kid away, far
away.

On a boat.

Take a ship. We're going to go far away.
The mommy's going to come meet us.

We'll have a real good time.

You sure you're a cop?

Because you look like an astronaut.

How you doing, kid?

I miss my mommy.

You know what?

I got something for you.

For mommy.

So you play with that and I'll be right
back, okay?

Don't move.

Oh, man.

I swear to God, there's a nuclear war,
and all humanity is wiped out?

It's just going to be you and the
cockroaches.

What are your thoughts on that, huh?

Would you like to be the king of the
cockroaches, Sam?

I'm taking you in, Vic.

Yeah, no.

That's not going to happen.

You see me and Sammy? We're going to get
out of Dodge for a while. Let the new

operation take hold.

And then we're going to cruise back
here, father and son.

And we're going to eat all the butter
and eggs in New York City.

That little boy in there, he worships
you.

He thinks you're heroic, Vic.

But he also senses something else.

He can't find the words.

But he recognizes the darkness inside of
you.

And he's terrified of it.

You know what the really bad news is for
you right now? No.

Why don't you tell me?

I'm not.

I sure as hell don't think you're

heroic.

How did you know where to find me?

I don't want to see you becoming a
regular Columbo.

You okay, Tyler?

Thanks, Gene.

Spanish Harlem are not just pretty words
to say.

Oh, Sammy! Sammy!

Sammy!

I'm sorry about Vic.

You went wrong a long time ago.

I just refused to see it.

At least now he can't poison my little
boy.

I told you, when you're gray and old,
Sam's going to read to you from

travels.

By the way, my

name isn't Luke Skywalker.

It's not?

No.

Turn around and say good morning to the
night.

For unless they see the sky, but they
can, that is why.

They know not if it's dark or light.

You wanted to see me, sir?

I did.

I have given this a lot of thought,
Norris.

It pains me to have to say it, but I do
think you are no longer worthy of this

badge.

You're not.

You are worthy of this one.

I'm promoting you to detective.

Thank you, sir.

Ray, would you like to inform her of the
new moniker?

Come on, Ray.

No more no -nuts, Norris.

Yes, indeed.

Detective Terry Grade, no more no -nuts,
Norris.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

Sam, sure you're okay?

I don't know, Chris.

I don't know why things happen the way
they do.

Do you?

It goes like this, Bassman.

We live on a rock.

There ain't no rhyme. There ain't no
reason. We live on a rock, just one of

many, hurtling around in some big cosmic
jambalaya. Now, you want to get

questiony, that's your prerogative.

Ray, not now.

My ma took me to a big, loud church
every Sunday.

She squeezed her eyes shut, she pressed
the rosary beads to her lips, and she

prayed for good things for those she
loved. But cancer took two of her

Her husband couldn't make a move without
a belly full of gin. Her youngest son

turned to a life of crime. And her
oldest, me, is a nasty son of a bitch

can't get out of third gear without a
snarl.

So, who was she talking to every Sunday?
And why wasn't he answering?

I will tell you why. Because we live on
a rock. Just one of many. There ain't no

answers. There's just this.

And all you can really hope to do is
find a couple of people who will make

70 or 80 -odd years we get to live on
this sweet swinging sphere remotely

tolerable.

I gotta take a look.

What do you think?

To be listening to this.

Okay, so that party that I was telling
you about, the one in Soho?

Yeah, well, David Bowie was there, and
he asked me to move to Spain with him

raise praying mantises.

David Bowie?

Why does it always come back to David
Bowie? Do you really think that Eric

Clapton is God?

Like the bumper stickers say? I mean, I
really hope so. It would make the world

a safer place.

Don't you think, Tooby? I mean,
everybody worshipping rock and roll. I

they... Okay, let's see if... They made
signs for me to come down from the rock

and go towards the shore.

which I accordingly did, and the flying
island being raised to a convenient

height emerged directly over me. We
should let her get some rest.

Thanks,

Ellen.

Gulliver's Travels. Love that book.

Yeah, I used to read it to my mother
before she passed away.

So it's time to go.

Who's this tomorrow night?

New Year's Eve, so that's perfect.

2010.

It's going to be a heck of a year, don't
you think?

I'll see you tomorrow.

Sleep tight, Annie.

Go to her to be.

Of course, to be.

I see everything you see.

Always have.

Now, go to her.

She's the one.

What are you doing here? I'm going to
know you for a long, long time.

I'm going to know you forever.

Somehow, someway. And I think that maybe
all of this, every single bit of this

matter has only ever been about one
thing.

What one thing?

Yes.

If that's true.

Welcome to 1973.

You know not if it's dark outside or

light. You know not if it's dark outside

or light.

Baseman!

Chris and I head into the snug to
attempt to drink up all the salty

in Manhattan.

In? Yeah, I don't think so, Ray. Long
day.

Come on, Sam. Ray wants to talk about
the decline of Richard Nixon and the

of hope. I'm going to need backup.

Okay. I'll meet you there. All right.

What? I said there were three things you
needed to do if you want to go home,

Sam. Three.

Are you ready for the third?

One more thing.

One more thing and then you are home,
Sam. You know what, pal?

Maybe I don't want to go home so badly
anymore.

What do you think of that?

Huh? Because I like 1973.

And everybody in it.

And because a long time ago, someone I
love once told me that whichever strange

place you find yourself in, make that
your home.

Hi, Laura. I need to talk to you.

Yeah, yeah.

I think I'll miss you most of all,
Gekko.

The way I figure, I'm going to call her
somewhere on a very intense drug trip.

How can you just stand there and insist
this is some puppet show that's being

performed in your head? I don't know if
it's real anymore.

I have to say goodbye, but how would you
go?

Terminating the Neptune 12 network.

Returning to normal.

By this time, I'm within normal range.

Tubi is awake.

Hey, Wendy.

Hello, Susie.

The date, 2 March 2035.

I think Christopher Meadows seemed to
work, huh?

I guess he did. Martian surface
deployment initialized.

Hello, Sam.

Colonel Norris. Welcome to Mars.

We made it.

Yes, we did. E -Labs travel is two
years, three months, and...

Spaceman. Miss me?

Ground control to Hive 125.

Uplink requesting.

Video uplink connected.

There you are, you sons of gun.

It's great to have you back.
Congratulations, Colonel Norris. Your

cleared for touchdown.

By the way, Colonel, President Obama
really wanted to be in the control room

when you landed, but her father is
seriously ill, so she and her sister

Chicago to be by his side.

Well, Send them our best.

Yeah. You got it. Hey, Chris, where did
Colonel Norris and her goofy boyfriend

leave it when we took off?

I don't know. Why?

Because I think this mission of Norris
just got a whole lot more complicated.

Morgan, we need to talk.

What did you do to me?

My trip got trippy.

Well, the ship ran into a meteor storm,
but with Wendy's help, we were able to

keep all life support and navigation
systems within range.

But there may have been some glitches in
your neural stimulation program.

Glitches? I still don't understand why
you chose the neuro to make you a cop in

2008. Yeah, well, those glitches knocked
me back to 1973 with all my

2008 memories intact.

It made me like crazy.

You guys... We're all there. I mean, you
were different.

You were all there. Oh, you poor
bastards.

For my neural stim, I was on a deserted
island with 200 girls who all looked

like either Splash era Daryl Hanna or
Scarface era Michelle Pfeiffer. Then let

me guess. There were no other men on
this island.

Oh, there were, but they didn't have
penises.

Maybe you weren't that different after
all. Hey, I fell in love on my island.

Yeah?

I fell in love on my island, too.

It's the freakiest show, Spaceman. Hi.

You guys are heroes. Now, if you manage
to find genetic DNA in a cure for

cancer, well, we will find genetic DNA,
Frank. And this will be one successful

gene hunt.

1A, awake.

Here he is.

Major Tom, how'd you sleep?

Like a drunk baby.

Frank, you look like hell.

I love you, too.

Wendy? What's going on, sugar?

I miss you, Major Tom.

They all do.

So, uh, before we do this amazing thing,
I just want to say

that, uh, I really don't want to fight
with you anymore.

Dad. Life is good, kiddo.

It's like I've been telling you since
you were a little boy.

Whichever strange place you land in,
make that your home.

Thank you, son.

Turn around and say good morning
tonight.

For unless they see the sky, but they
can't and

that is why.

No, not if it's dark outside or light.

No, not if... If it's dark outside or
light.
