All language subtitles for Jeremiah s01e16 Moon in Gemini.eng

Pret?

En garde.

Always.

[swords clashing]

Good thrust.

So I'm told.

Watch your supination.

I'd rather be watching yours.

Prise de fer, passe
--and riposte.

God, I love it
when you talk dirty.

[grunts]

Touche.
Right through the heart.

You have no idea.

What'd you say?

Nothing.

Had enough?

[sighing]
I'm done.

Stick a fork in me.

[groans]

You know, on 2nd thought,
you might take that literally.

You're improving.

You just need to work on your
balestra and your Coule'.

[laughing]
You know, you've got to admit,

you're just making
this shit up, right?

My father taught us
how to fence.

He wanted to make sure his
girls could defend themselves.

Oh, you got a sister?

I didn't know that.

Is she older, younger?

Younger.

Oh.

Where does she live?

Right on the edge.

Edge of what?

Catastrophe, disaster,
self-destruction...

[panting]

Lauren and I,
we're like polar opposites.

She's always been
pretty wild.

The only time I ever hear from her
is when she's in trouble.

Something tells me
you just heard from her.

We have this system
for communicating.

She leaves word with a--a bar owner
about 70 miles south.

Anyone from the Mountain going that way,
I ask them to check in for messages.

Day before yesterday--

You got a message.

Mmm-hmm.

First time
in I don't know how long.

She sounded
pretty desperate.

So are you gonna
help her out?

What am I gonna do?

She's got nobody else.

[door opening]

You think I'm too soft.

It's OK. I like soft.

Am I crazy,

or have you wanted to do that
as long as I have?

You're crazy.

Touche.

(Jeremiah)
Dear dad,

it's been 15 years

since the Big Death wiped out
everyone over the age of innocence.

The end of your world,

the beginning of mine.

You're both aware

that our outreach program
has gone into overdrive.

I'll say.

Thunder Mountain's, like,
having a grand opening sale.

(Marcus)
In recent days,

we've made contact
with at least 20 groups

that we believe offer
potentially important alliances

for our future endeavors.

And I can assume
those endeavors

would not be shared
with us today?

Need to know.

Yeah, why would the guys

who put their lives on the line
for this place all the time

need to know?

The day is coming
soon, Jeremiah.

The day is coming soon.

Isn't that what
those crazy guys

on the street corner
used to say?

And they were right.

Mmm.

We want you
to make contact

with a group called
shadow of the crescent.

(Marcus)
Have you heard of them?

No, I haven't.

I have.

What do you know
about them?

Only that they preach
separation of the races.

Oh, man, if it's another one
of these white power groups--

No, actually,
it's black power.

(Marcus) That's right.
It's, uh, kind of a throwback

to the African-American
activists

that proliferated in the
decades before the death.

And you want us to make
an alliance with these guys?

Why? You have a problem
with that?

No, it's not my problem
that's the issue here.

Jeremiah's right.

From what I know
about these brothers,

they would be
instantly suspicious.

We never said
it was going to be easy.

No offense,

but they might be more open
to an approach

if I go in alone.

You sure about that?

Yeah.

You OK with that?

Yeah, as long as
you keep a low profile,

and don't take
any unnecessary risks.

Well, damn.
Those are my favorite kind.

Hey. You wanted
to see me?

Yeah, Marcus told me

about this mission
you're going on.

Yeah?

I want to go with you.

Oh, no, Elizabeth,

I don't think
that's a good idea.

Why not?

Well, we have to
take a.T.V.s, man.

And the roads are too narrow
for anything else,

and I really don't think
you'd want to--

I've rebuilt engines
on a.T.V.s.

Oh.

Well, it might
be dangerous.

All the more reason
to have some backup.

Look, Elizabeth, it's not that
I don't appreciate the offer--

But you don't think
I can handle it?

Look, if anything
happened to you,

I don't know
what I would do.

I'll watch your behind,
you watch mine.

OK,

but I got the better end
of the deal.

Jeremiah?

Hey, um,
about last night,

let's just chalk that up
to a crazy impulse.

And I probably
overreacted.

Listen, um, I wanted
to ask you a favor.

It's about my sister.
The situation she's in,

it's not something I feel
comfortable handling alone.

Sure. Whatever I--I can do,

I'd be happy to.

Thanks
for understanding.

You--you, too.

(Erin) Lauren's got a history
of bad choices

and high-risk behavior.

You mean drugs?

When she can
get them.

But it's men
that are usually her undoing.

She's hooked up
with this new Romeo,

and from what I can make out
from her message,

he's been
seriously abusive.

First, I want
to make sure

we can get my little sister
as far away from him as possible,

and then
she's gonna hear some things

she's not gonna
want to hear.

How much younger than you
did you say she was?

I didn't.

But it's about 10 minutes.

Wow. You're twins?

Identical.

Hey.

I, uh, brought some
dried apricots for dessert.

Want some?

Sure.

You are so delicate.

What?

The way you eat,
the way you move,

those little glass animals
you collect,

everything about you.

Not as fragile
as you think.

Well, I didn't mean it
in a bad way.

You know a lot more
about where I came from

than I do
about your story.

Not much to tell.

Middle-class neighborhood
in Los Angeles,

an only child.

I guess you could say
I was a daddy's girl.

There's nothing my father
wouldn't have done for me,

except survive, I guess.

And after they were gone?

Cried myself to sleep
every night

for the longest time,

and then one night,
I just stopped crying.

I'm a lot tougher
than you know.

[chuckling]

I can see that.

Anyway,

we've got a long day
ahead of us tomorrow.

Better get some sleep.

[Elizabeth sighing]

You know, we, uh,
might be a lot warmer

if we shared
the same sleeping bag.

Kurdy, you know
I care about you...

No, really.

I just want
to keep you warm.

That's sweet.

Thank you.

Good night, Kurdy.

(Erin) I really appreciate
your help on this, Jeremiah.

Oh...

I'm just having trouble
picturing another one of you.

I haven't spent much time
with Lauren, really,

not since
we were teenagers.

Yeah?
Your choice or hers?

Mmm,

I'd say it was mutual.

She did something once
when we were 16

that I haven't been able
to forgive her for.

Let me guess.

You were both in love
with the same guy.

No.

It--it may seem petty,

but there was something
our mother left us both

before the virus
claimed her.

It was her collection
of antique jewelry.

Your sister
took it.

Not just took it. She bartered it away
almost immediately.

I'm pretty sure
it was for drugs.

She didn't even have the decency
to offer up an explanation.

[owl hooting]

I can see why that
would get to you.

It's not even that they were
all that valuable, either,

especially after
the death.

It's just...

It was all
you had left...

Of your mother.

Exactly.

As far as I was concerned, she had no
right to trade away her own part,

much less mine.

[sighing]

You've got to figure, it must
have been pretty hard,

surviving by herself,
a girl.

You of all people should know
how hard that would be.

I don't know
what it is, Jeremiah.

Maybe it's the fact
that seeing Lauren

is so much like looking
in a mirror,

but every time she trips,
I get bruised.

You're lucky.

You still have
a sibling.

Nothing I wouldn't give to
have my little brother back,

just roll around in the dirt
one more time.

[engine shuts off]

Shadow of the crescent.

These guys have got
about 100 acres

right at the edge
of those woods.

Picked a pretty
remote spot, didn't they?

I think that's the point,

to separate themselves,

to be as self-sufficient
as possible.

From what I hear, man, they've
created their own world out here,

kind of like
Thunder Mountain,

but only aboveground.

Hold it right there.

[guns clicking]

(Kurdy) Whoa. Take it easy, fellows.
We're friends.

You're trespassing.

Well, we heard the S.O.C.
was around these parts.

Nobody gets in
without an invitation.

So how about inviting us?

Consider yourself invited.

[bird squawking]

Erin!
Oh, my God,

it's so good
to see you!

Same here.

Wow.

You didn't say
you were gonna bring anyone.

Lauren, this is
my friend, Jeremiah.

Jeremiah, Lauren.

Hi, hi.

Huh.

I'll say this, sis,

you always did have
good taste in men.

It's not like that.
Jeremiah and I just work together.

Whatever floats
your boat.

Come on. There's so much
I want to catch you up on.

[people chattering]

What in the hell
is this place?

Used to be a shopping mall,
before the Big.

Now, it's part
marketplace,

part hostel.

Huh. Yeah, well,
I get the "hostile" part.

What the fuck
is he looking at?

Oh, don't mind him.

Remember those ads, when we
were kids, with the frying pan?

"This is your brain
on drugs."

His has been sauteing
for about 15 years.

Can I buy you
some home brew?

No, thanks.

Sure.

2 beers.
Put 'em on my tab.

I don't mean
to be rude, Lauren,

but your message sounded
pretty urgent.

Yeah, well...

[sighing]

Something about havin' a gun shoved
in your mouth will do that to you.

Who is this guy?

Calls himself
Geronimo,

but I've got
a shorter name for him.

And you split
from him, right?

Took off in the middle
of the night.

What are the odds
he'll try to come find you?

I made sure I covered
my tracks.

Well, I'm not taking any
chances. Finish your beers.

What's your hurry, Erin?

What's the hurry?

If you know this place
well enough to run a tab at the bar,

then my guess, so does this loser
you shacked up with.

We can't leave
till tomorrow morning.

What happens then?

I got a girlfriend
meeting me.

I told her you'd give us both a lift
to boulder.

She knows someone
with a farm

at the foot
of the Flat Hills.

He'll never
find me there.

I don't like it.

First, you ask me to help you
get away from this guy,

and then you spring
this friend on me.

Can you just trust me on this? I mean,
for goddamn once, can you just trust me?

Unlike you, I have
this problem,

I learn from my mistakes.

Man, I knew this was
a bad idea.

Tell you what, your friend shows up
in the morning,

and then we're out
of here, all right?

That's it.

Unless, of course, you mind
traveling with 3 women.

I think I can handle it.

No doubt.

[people talking]

(Kwame)
I am called Kwame.

And you?

I am Kurdy,
and this is Elizabeth.

Those are
your slave names.

Well, they happen to be
the only names we have.

What's the nature
of your business here?

We come in peace.

(Raheem) We'll be
the judge of that.

We represent
an organization

that's trying to build
a broad coalition.

What organization?

I'm not at liberty
to give you the name just yet,

but let me say,

it represents the best hope
any of us have.

Man, we're talkin'
a whole new way.

That presumes we're unhappy
with the ways we've got.

No, not at all.

I mean,
from what I hear,

you got a lot
of good things going on here.

I mean, this could be
heaven on Earth.

It's just that
you're doing it alone.

By choice.

Forgive me,
Kwame,

but we don't owe
these two any explanations.

They've broken
our rules,

and there have
to be consequences.

Pardon the vigilance
of brother Raheem.

He's very protective
of our life here.

For good reason.

We let down our guard,
we could wind up on the scrap heap,

like so many others
of our race.

If I may ask,

this organization

whose name you're unwilling
to disclose to us,

who comprises it?

All peoples,

black, white,

yellow, red...

That is what
you're asking, isn't it?

You want to know
if we stand together?

You don't even see
the irony, do you?

No. What exactly
is the irony?

What my good friend
Raheem means

is that we draw
our strength from unity.

Well, then we're
on the very same page, Kwame.

Except that what
we mean by unity

is standing shoulder
to shoulder

with brothers
and sisters of color.

Is that a problem for you?

No, it's not
a problem at all.

We're just suggesting

that you may want to consider
expanding your horizons a little.

We don't need
outsiders

to tell us how
to live our lives.

I'm sorry, Kurdy,

but we've never gone wrong
erring on the side of caution.

Go back and tell your leaders,

we respectfully decline
their invitation.

But you haven't even--

The matter is settled.

We don't know
what their agenda really is.

We turn them loose without them
being fully interrogated,

it could come back
to haunt us.

Perhaps you're right.

For the moment,
I ask that you stay.

[people chattering]

Don't you think
you've had enough?

Enough?

Don't think I know that word.
Give me a hint.

I've had enough.
I'm gonna turn in.

You guys, uh, seem like you
got a lot to talk about.

Come on. Don't be
such a stick-in-the-mud.

The party's just beginning.

Why don't you just tell me
how it turns out?

(Erin)
Good night, Jeremiah.

So, you're saying
that he's not taken,

is that right?

You can't keep
doing this.

Here we go.

You can't keep going on
making messes,

expecting other people
to clean up after you.

But you're such a good little housekeeper,
Erin. You were always mama's little helper.

Don't you dare
bring up mom with me.

Oh, honey, relax.
You'll get creases.

'sides, you're not on your turf
anymore, you're on mine.

And in case you forgot,
mom's dead.

I'm sorry.
I--I didn't...

Hey, no problem.

Maybe you're not
so perfect after all.

Why is it that all the men
you gravitate to

are all such assholes?

I like your friend, Jeremiah.
Is he an asshole?

You know what
I think it is?

No, sister, dear, but I have a funny
feeling I'm gonna hear it.

You choose men who hurt you because
that's what you think you deserve.

That is such bullshit.

You don't
value yourself,

so why not hook up with some guy
who's got the same opinion?

- Are you done yet?
- Not quite.

You took something from me
that you had no right to take.

If it was your sense of humor,
you clearly had no use for it.

You know exactly
what I'm talking about.

Excuse me, but this little incident
happened along the way,

the whole goddamn world
collapsed like a house of cards,

but maybe that was
just my nightmare.

OK, so you--you can make
all these demands of me,

push me around, but if I push back,
you go ballistic.

Honey, there's nothin'
you can do to me

that hasn't been done a hundred times,
so climb off that high horse.

It doesn't become you.

[sniffs]

This is damn good.
What do you call it?

It's called
muamba nsusu,

A traditional African stew
from the Congo.

Muamba nsusu,
all right.

I'd be willing to wager
there's a lot

about your cultural heritage
that you don't know.

Yeah, well, that's a wager
you would probably win, my man.

It's not your fault.

Even after the Big Death, too many
of the old prejudices prevailed.

Well, I've done
my share of reading

about the struggle
before the death.

Unfortunately, a lot of those
histories were skewed.

Well, I'm talking
James Baldwin, Malcolm X,

Dr. Martin Luther King...

King had a time
and a place,

but his teachings
did not endure

the way real
revolutionaries' did.

So are you suggesting Dr. King
wasn't a real revolutionary?

I just say that he tried to be
all things to all people.

(Elizabeth)
So if Martin Luther King

doesn't pass your litmus test
for moral courage,

who on God's green Earth does?

I don't expect you
to understand.

What is your problem, Raheem?

You're forcing me to say something
that you might find ugly.

Well, get it out,

'cause you're saying it
in innuendo anyway.

All right.

What you are
is the very symbol

of what damn near
brought our people to ruin:

Racial mixing.

Now, you wait
a goddamn minute.

I don't know what books
you've read,

but the movement
was about equality,

and even the most real
revolutionary

did not exclude
black men and women

because they were
of mixed heritage.

You know what you're about?

You're about fear,

about hate,

and about finding a scapegoat.

Life is not
black or white, Raheem.

The real work

comes in taking the time
to judge people

by what's in their hearts.

You don't see their hearts.

You see their faces.

You're proud of being black.

That's great.
So am I.

I'm also proud of being me.

Did I wake you?

[Jeremiah grunts]

What do you want?

Honey, if I have to answer
that question,

you've got more problems
than I do.

It's not like you're gonna get
anywhere with the ice queen.

[groaning]

What are you
afraid of, Jeremiah?

Hmm?

Mind if I join you?

It's your home.

Brother Raheem,
he, uh, speaks from the heart.

I'm sorry if he caused
your friend pain.

You know what's ironic?

I was going to come here
with my partner.

This is a cat I would trust
with my life.

And I told him
he should stay behind,

because I knew he would get
a chilly reception here,

so I brought Elizabeth
instead.

This movement,

it's not about hate.

Exactly the opposite,
it's about love,

self-love, Kurdy.

The pride of a people

who have been held down
so long,

they've forgotten how strong
they really are.

Now, my parents
worked damn hard

to teach me
about where I came from,

and to make sure
I understood the sacrifices

our people made
along the way.

And then the Death happened,
and you forgot, but we can teach you--

No, no, no, that's where you're wrong,
Kwame. I did not forget.

I can never forget.

But when that disease hit,

when it passed over every house like
one of pharaoh's plagues,

it did not stop to check

to see who was black
or white or in-between.

The Big Death was
an equal-opportunity assassin.

That's all the more reason
for black kids to have stuck together,

'cause that was our one shot
at unity.

No, man, I saw unity.

I saw children reaching out
to other children,

and it didn't matter
who you were.

I saw more acts of kindness
on those streets

between kids who were simply
trying to survive

than I've seen in a month of Sundays
at church.

About a year after
the Big Death,

I got sick.

Now, I was real sick.
I had some kind of parasite.

I'm--I'm wasting away in the
basement of a church somewhere.

And this little girl,

who was barely older
than me,

I remember she walked
with a limp,

but she found me.

She brought me food

and whatever medication
she could scrounge up,

and every morning
and every night,

she took care of me,

until I had the strength
to fight back.

You know what this little
gimpy girl said to me?

I was the first black
friend she ever had.

It's a very touching
story, Kurdy,

but I find it difficult
to believe

that you didn't see
the hate.

You didn't feel
the prejudice?

Yeah, I felt it.

- And you know what I learned?
- Mmm?

Good and evil
come in all colors.

Listen, this organization
I represent

is looking for decency
wherever it's hiding.

We want to build
upon it.

We want it to flourish.

We've worked too hard, Kurdy,

too hard at surviving to risk it all
on one more white man's promise.

Do I look like
a white man to you?

It's dark out here.

I can't tell.

[groans]

[motorcycle engine rumbling]

There you are.

You are in deep shit.
You know that.

I want what's mine,
Geronimo.

Oh, you're going
to get what's yours.

Believe me.

I'm not going back with you,
so don't waste your threats.

It's over, OK?

I'm not doin' this anymore.

[bird squawking]

No, you are gonna do

what I tell you to do.

Just give me
my stuff.

I know you've got it.

Come on.

[yells]

[people chattering]

What's with
the clothes?

You gotta be shittin' me.

[yells]

[groaning]

You are so askin'
for it.

Where the hell
did you learn to do that?

Fuck!

There's two of you.

(Erin)
Bring it on.

[yells]

[grunts]

[grunts]

[yelling]

[glass crunching]

That's enough.

Leave me the hell alone,
all right?

You heard the lady.
She ain't interested.

And who the fuck
are you?

Somebody that
doesn't like bullies,

especially those
who victimize women.

How about
I victimize you instead?

How about
you just walk away?

Oh, that's nice, hiding behind
a woman's skirt. Sweet.

I got it.

Come on, asshole.

[grunting]

So, think you're
a big man?

It makes you big,
beating up on women, huh?

[grunting]

Oh, shit.

[both grunting]

[grunting]

[stick clanging]

[gasping]

[groaning]

[panting]

Hey, you all right?

I didn't mean to--
It's all right.

He got what he deserved.

Let's get the hell
outta here.

What are we
gonna tell Marcus?

That you can't always
pry open a closed mind.

For what it's worth, I've
taken notes on everything,

so Marcus can do with it
what he will.

It might have been different
if I hadn't come with you.

No, it's bullshit.

All it did
was convince me

that these guys are not worth
bringing into the fold.

Look, you can put
your hardware away, fellas.

We're just leavin'.

After you scoped out everything
there is to know about this place?

I don't think so.

I think I know a spy
when I see one.

What the hell
do you want from us?

You should never
have come here,

but now that you have,
you leave me no choice.

Let's go.

[car doors slam]

You knew perfectly well
that he'd come after you.

That story about
your girlfriend was a lie.

I had to get
something from him.

I didn't think
you'd understand.

I guess you never considered
the truth as an option.

The people with the farm
I told you about,

that was the truth.

It's not far from here.
I can walk it.

Lauren...

There's no reason
to hide anymore.

You sure you wouldn't
rather come back with us?

I'm not really
the settle down type.

That's why
it might be good for you.

I have a natural aversion
to what's good for me.

So I've noticed.

Guess I won't be
needing this.

If this is what I think it is, believe
me, you're doing the right thing.

Any opportunity
for a lecture, sis, hey?

You really oughta
loosen up.

Maybe this'll help.

Take care of that girl,
all right?

She takes care of herself.

She does pretty good.

So what'd
she give you?

I think she decided
to give up the drugs.

You sure?

Oh, my God.

I don't believe this.

It's my mother's jewelry.

All of it.

There's not a piece missing.

She never traded it.

(Kwame)
Raheem!

Whatever it is,
it'll have to wait.

What do you think
you're doing?

Protecting the enclave

from those
who would destroy it.

There's nothing about our group
they don't know about with this report.

All an enemy needs
to bring us to our knees.

Oh, come on, Kwame.

You know
why we're here.

Raheem, when were you going to
share your intentions with me?

You've grown soft, Kwame.

Someone had to have the courage
to stand up and fight for what's right.

Stand down.

Now.

We resort to violence
without cause,

and we only show
our weakness.

Put away your gun, Raheem.

So after everything
we've worked for,

we go back
to blind faith?

Guilty until
proven innocent,

is that what you would
have us espouse?

When it comes to the security
of our people,

we cannot afford
to miscalculate.

Like it or not,
Raheem,

there's a world
beyond these walls.

A world that would crush
our bodies and our souls.

Now, either we act
out of love,

or fear.

In the end, those are
the only 2 choices.

And I simply won't
be ruled

by fear.

What about our families?
Your family, my family?

I see no harm in learning
more about the group

that brought
these people here.

If they can help us, fine.
If not, I'll make that clear.

If you don't want to be
part of that conversation,

Silence
is pretty deafening.

I know that you know
what happened last night.

I do?

Your sister
came on to me.

I--I crumbled.

Phew!

What's a man to do?

I never said
I was a saint.

No, you're definitely
not that.

And trust me,
she's no saint.

[sighing]

What did she do?
Blow in your ear?

Is that what
she told you?

Honey, if I have to answer
that question,

you've got more problems

Hey, wait a minute.

[stammering]
Are--are you saying

th--that you...

In--in--in--

Did we, uh...

You'll never know for sure,
now, will you?

Remember when
we first met,

and I promised you
a glass cat?

Where did you get this?

Shadow of the crescent.

It's from Swaziland.
Kwame gave it to me.

I promise I won't
fall asleep this time.
