[the Rangers argue with Dr. K about how to beat Venjix's threats.]
Hold it! Hold it! Hold everything, people. In times like this, there is one question that needs to be answered: Are we, or are we not, the good guys?
Dr. K [puzzled]: Tell me: What's it like?
Ziggy [intrigued]: What's what like?
Dr. K [curious]: Being stupid your whole life. Is it as wonderful as it seems?
GWGovernment Worker (Male)
It's time to celebrate your first year with us here at Alphabet Soup. Happy birthday, K! [He and his partner clap as K blows out the candles on her cake.]
GWGovernment Worker (Female)
K, we've been over this: You're a very sick little girl, and the sun makes you unwell.
GWGovernment Worker (Male)
Maybe next year. [The handlers remove the table and the birthday cake.]
GWGovernment Worker (Female)
You know what could be really fun in the meantime? [They present her with a board with complex formulas.]
GWGovernment Worker (Male)
You could try cracking these series of encrypted rocket codes.
GWGovernment Worker (Female)
Or you can designs us a thermal-sensitive guidance system.
GWGovernment Worker (Male)
How about deducing the macro-molecular origin of these bio-toxins?
GWGovernment Worker (Male)
Happy birthday, K. [He and his partner clap as K blows out the candles. They then remove the cake from the table and replace it with a notebook computer.]
GWGovernment Worker (Female)
We need you to write us a very special computer program.
GWGovernment Worker (Male)
"Outside"? Sorry, honey. You're still very, very allergic to the sun.
GWGovernment Worker (Female)
Maybe next year. Now don't forget to make your birthday wish.
GWGovernment Worker (Male)
You do have a wish, don't you?
[sighing] I wish I could remember my name.
[As Dr. K blows out the candles on her cake.] Happy birthday!
And surprise! [The two present her with a gift for her birthday.
[As he and his sister sit down at the other side of the table.] It's your birthday.
Gem, Gemma, you two should know I don't even like you.
[As Dr. K unwraps her present, a multicolored pencil.] But we can still like you, can't we?
[As she runs up the steps to her room with Gem and Gemma, with a notebook computer in her hand.] I'm getting out of here, and I'm taking you two with me!
Don't you get it? We aren't allergic to sunlight. We never have been! It was all a lie.
But we don't have access--
To Alphabet Soup security computers!
I don't need access. I just need to blind the servers for a few minutes with this--a wireless upload of the Venjix virus. [Puts down the notebook at her desk, powering it on.] It's a self-aware, self-generating computer virus. Meet Project: Venjix. [She presses a button, activating the Venjix virus. Guards from Alphabet Soup then enter her room and detain Gem and Gemma.
No! Gem, Gemma, no! [Panicking, she takes out a flash drive that contains the firewall to contain Venjix. Guards come in and attempt to detain her.] NO! YOU HAVE TO LET ME INSTALL THE FIREWALL TO STOP IT! [Dr. K frees herself from the guards' grip.] OR VENJIX WILL SPREAD BEYOND ALPHABET SOUP! [Guards finally capture her.] NO! I JUST WANTED TO GO OUTSIDE! NO, PLEASE, IT COULD INFECT THE ENTIRE WORLD!
[Mockingly] You pride yourself on how smart you are, don't you? But you still royally messed up, didn't you? [Dr. K angrily fires her sound cannon. Another flashback begins, this time to Alphabet Soup, now under attack by Venjix forces.]
[Recording a message into a computer, putting on a white cloak in preparations to escape Alphabet Soup.] A year later, it was estimated that Venjix had already infected thirty-seven percent of the world's computer systems. But it's not over, not yet. [Explosions in the background.] If you can hear my voice, please, go now to the domed city of Corinth. {She puts away the Ranger Series technology into a black briefcase.] It's the only place we can be safe! But you have to make it inside the city walls before the defense shield is activated. Please, hurry! [Explosions rock the compartment, and Dr. K leaves, but not before being intercepted by her handlers.]
GWGovernment Worker (Male)
Sorry, Dr. K. Give us the computer. It's for your own good.
GWGovernment Worker (Female)
Sorry, K. No one can know that Venjix started here. [An explosion rocks the compound.]
This Ranger technology is our only chance of fighting Venjix. I have to get it out of here!
GWGovernment Worker (Male)
[As he and his partner draw weapons.] I'm sorry, Dr. K. [The two handlers are taken out off screen. Gem and Gemma reappear.]
Are we! [An explosion rocks the compound, triggering an alarm.]
Head for the exit, Doctor.
We're going back for the classified Gold and Silver Series. [The two head off to another compartment.]
Gem, Gemma, wait! No, we don't have time! [An explosion kicks up dust as Gem and Gemma go past it. Dr. K fears that they have died.] GEM, GEMMA, NO! [Return to the present. Dr. K appears guilt-ridden and emotionally exhausted.]
