The Tomorrow People Worlds Away Part 6
Transcript
00:00How much time have we got?
00:02The burnings are at noon.
00:07Wake up! Come on, wake up!
00:09Is there no way we can get him out of his trance?
00:11No, I doubt he will return to his body before the burnings.
00:13And then?
00:14When his body dies, he will die.
00:17Tysa?
00:18Elizabeth?
00:21She should have a lookout posted.
00:31I'm not deserted.
00:33Are you sure this is the place?
00:35Of course I'm sure.
00:36But they are not here.
00:37Well, I can see that.
00:38The question is, where have they gone and why?
00:40I mean, Tysa could hardly walk.
00:47The flesh taker has been here.
00:49Well, how do you know?
00:50I'm afraid they've been here and taken your friends.
00:53What will they do to them?
00:54They will burn them at noon.
00:56Well, then we've got to get back and tell John and the others.
00:58It's too late. They will already have set out.
01:00Well, then we've got to find them.
01:01We'll never catch up on them.
01:02Their many hours start upon us.
01:04And what are we going to do?
01:05We just can't leave them to be burned.
01:07We shall have to attack the burning place ourselves.
01:09Just the two of us.
01:10With your star weapon, we might succeed.
01:12We can't keep this up much longer.
01:14We've got to.
01:15We must destroy the side damping equipment before the burning starts.
01:19Hello, my best.
01:21Cold, are you?
01:23Never mind.
01:24We will soon have a fire to warm you up.
01:33Okay, John.
01:34Yes, push on.
01:35When we get to the top of the next hill, we should be able to see the pyramid.
01:38I thought we must be careful.
01:39I'm afraid we can't.
01:40I'm afraid we can't.
01:41I'm afraid we can't.
01:42I'm afraid we can't.
01:43I'm afraid we can't.
01:44I'm afraid we can't.
01:45I'm afraid we can't.
01:46I'm afraid we can't.
01:47I thought we must be getting closer.
01:49I can feel its influence getting stronger.
01:51Yes.
01:52It's like a heavy weight pressing down upon you all the time and getting heavier and heavier.
01:55And that humming.
01:57Yes, the Vesh call that the droning of the great Kultan.
02:00They say it is the sound of their prayers and chants to their gods beyond the stars.
02:04Personally, I reckon it is a side effect of the radiation.
02:07It is only the Vesh and us who can hear it.
02:09The sun is at its zenith.
02:11They will have begun the ceremony of the burning.
02:15Listen, they're coming for us.
02:26Come, my Vesh.
02:28Time for burning.
02:30The great Kultan awaits you.
02:45Up there.
02:46That's where the burning takes place.
02:48At the top of the tallest tower.
02:50To be near to the Great Ones who live in the sky.
02:52We'll never get up there, how can we?
02:54I thought you would know a way.
02:56Or with your star weapon we could raise this castle to the ground.
02:59This is a stun gun, not an atom bomb.
03:01No.
03:02A stun gun.
03:03A stun gun.
03:04A stun gun.
03:05A stun gun.
03:06A stun gun.
03:07A stun gun.
03:08A stun gun.
03:09A stun gun.
03:10A stun gun.
03:11A stun gun.
03:12A stun gun.
03:13No.
03:14Somehow we've got to get within range.
03:16And that means we've got to get inside the castle.
03:25It looks much larger than the pyramids we have on Earth.
03:28Perhaps it is larger.
03:30The Kultan have had several thousand more years experience of pyramid building since they left your world.
03:36Look.
03:37There is only one guard.
03:39The others will have gone to guard the Vestager's castle during the burning.
03:45This stun gun will make short work of him.
03:47I'll move my men into position, ready to rush in and attack the moment you shoot.
03:52Right.
03:57Train them well.
04:00I and my men do not like the fire that burns you.
04:05The Great Kultan themselves do that.
04:08See how you unworthy Vesh are honoured.
04:14Light of the sun which belongs to the Great Kultan comes through this burning glass.
04:19Then it reaches the dry tinder there.
04:23First it smoulders.
04:26Then burns.
04:28And the flames travel quickly along that channel and zut!
04:35You are burned.
04:39You are burned.
04:50All praise to the Great Ones.
04:55Death to the Vesh.
04:59They're ready.
05:09Arrgh!
05:11Can't you keep them quiet long enough for us to destroy the transmitter?
05:14I can't stand this droning much longer.
05:39They've taken our stun guns.
05:41We haven't been able to rescue the others now.
05:43And we'll be next for the burning.
05:58This is the place.
06:09Come here.
06:13This way.
06:16They're droning.
06:38Arrgh!
07:01It's hopeless.
07:08They're droning.
07:18It's not real. It's only an image.
07:25They're droning, John. They're droning.
07:28I can't go any further.
07:30Keep going.
07:32It must go on.
07:39Arrgh!
07:45I leave you now to the Great Ones.
07:48The Great Kultan who live in the sky.
08:09It's no use.
08:11It's up to John now.
08:13He can cut off the radiation in time.
08:38Arrgh!
09:08Arrgh!
09:38Arrgh!
09:50It's the radiation. It's stopped.
09:52John must have done it.
10:02Think of home. Think hard of home.
10:05Think that you were there.
10:09Arrgh!
10:12They can do it. They can, John.
10:14We must as well.
10:17Arrgh!
10:24God, our power's back.
10:27Arrgh!
10:32What, the Kultan don't exist?
10:34It was only an image.
10:36They must have left for another planet centuries ago.
10:39But their machinery was still working.
10:41And so was the religion they'd set up to provide them with food when they were here.
10:45I've been up to the space station.
10:47There are thousands of intended victims up there in suspended animation.
10:50We'll be able to bring them all back eventually.
10:52That should cause a few headaches.
10:54I shall have to stay here until it's all sorted out.
10:56But you must be going now, back to your own planet.
10:58Can you manage, Tigre?
11:00Yes, I'll be fine.
11:03This is a good world to be on,
11:05now that the Kultan and the Vesh-Taker no longer rule it.
11:08It'll be even better for the Vesh-On-Piri
11:11than it will be for you tomorrow people on Earth.
