The Maxx · Season 1
The skinny one’s Teego. The Big one’s fridge. They beat people up, take their money, kill them sometimes. The cab driver gets a third. One woman, they beat her head so hard against the sidewalk, they crack the concrete. Another got away by running three blocks on a broken foot. Sometimes that’s the only way people get saved, suicidal bravery. Sometimes it’s luck that saves them. Sometimes it’s fate. Yeah, usually it’s fate…
But, sometimes, it’s me.
And sometimes it’s us! Okay, everybody freeze!
Damn. I was talking out loud again.
Oh God. It’s started again. The pounding. God I wish I was a drunk. At least that would explain this!
Starting to fade…it’s starting to come back to me now…back to Australia. Not the Australia they teach you about…Melbourne, Sydney, The Outback…
No the real Australia. The smoking caves. The gods who eat mountains, the flying dragons, the rivers of gold, the Leopard Queen. Taunting me…almost an enemy…beautiful and feral as the great beasts she runs with, still she inspires me…
For her I can be…
…A hero!
Hi, Ocono. You gotta package here for me?
Yeah. You shouldn’t hang around with these creeps Miss Julie. There was another rape last night.
If you don’t act stupid you don’t get raped.
Blame the victim why doncha?
It’s a hard world out there Ocono, there’s always enough blame to go around.
The woman I saved yesterday was raped and mutilated, it said so on the news. I have to do something about that.
Spoken like a true fanatic! A few women who can’t take care of themselves get messed with and you ride to the rescue! Who are you to assume responsibility for their lives?
I am The Maxx. Answer your phone.
Amazing…You really don’t remember any of it! Not the girl or the !sz or the bloodworms or me.
Then it wasn’t all a dream! Unless I was dreaming now.
Too bad. I normally hate killing amnesiacs.
Give it up Br’er Lappin! You…gasp… know Julie Winters is the one I want! She’s….wheezz the strong one…The one who pulls …hant your strings!
You really don’t remember anything important, do you Br’er lappin? I’m Mr. Gone!...A student of the mystic arts. Unfortunately an untalented student, or I wouldn’t have to keep shooting fools like you.
Blacking out…lost too much blood…pain…have to find…Julia…
It feels good to run and leap again! To feel the soft loam under my heels! To know tat I am king in this savage place…but even a king must have his jungle queen! If I can just find her, then everything will be all right.
Bad doll.
There she is…but changed… Even her voice is different. What has happened to her?
This is a bad doll. It keeps telling me things I don’t want to hear! And if this bad doll doesn’t shut up, I’m going to brush it’s hair right out!
I ran into your friend Maxx today, Julie. He still hasn’t got a clue that you’re the key to all this. He thinks he’s some kind of superhero on this world. Can you ‘’’imagine?’’’’ I killed him of course. Shot him and locked him in a dumpster with a handful of the dark Ises. They turn meat-eaters when you bring them over. Did you know that? Ahh….life is good! This Ises are pretty interesting…Did you know that to humans they appear as whatever you dress them as?
