While stuck on the thorn, attached to a city in the desert, Kai is actually walking toward the city where he last seen the gondola he’s been following. On the thorn, Xev and Stan discuss their situation.
Stanley: Well, I don’t see Kai.
Xev: That’s probably cause we’re too far up.
Stanley: I would like to get out, of the sun, real soon.
Xev: Up or down?
Stanley: I rather go down.
Xev: It gets hotter when we go down and cooler if we go up.
Xev says she gives Stanley a hand while she gives him a boost up the stone wall. It wasn’t long before Stan found himself wearing out, finding the climb exhausting.
Stanley: I can’t do it, Xev.
Xev: Yes you can.
Stanley: I think, this is it for me. This climb isn’t cooling me off.
Xev: I know, but we have to keep going.
Stanley: I’m not part cluster-lizard. I gotta rest.
Xev: We gotta get you out of the heat.
Stanley: Give me a minute, then.
Stan says as he rests his head on a rock. Xev just keeps climbing until she comes across a lose stone and pulls it out. She shouts inside the hole, to see if anyone was there, but ends up hearing no response. To give Stan some hope, she tells Stan that there’s a cooler place he can rest, so he starts climbing up and follows Xev into the hole. Xev, already, wants to explore her surroundings. Tired Stan, just wants to sit and rest.
Xev: Coming?
Stanley: Why can’t we just sit here and wait for Kai?
Xev: We’re on the wrong side of the tower.
Stanley: He’ll find us. I know he will. It won’t hurt you to wait.
Xev: Maybe he’ll find us, maybe he won’t. You can stay here, if you like, I’ll be fine on my own.
Stanley: Maybe I won’t.
Xev: Yes you will. Just sit tight and I’ll go check things out and be right back.
Stanley: Okay, fine. Just don’t go far.
Stan says as Xev is walking away.
Xev: I won’t.
Stanley: I really think that you should stick together.
Xev: Then, you can come with me.
Just as Xev leaves the room, Stan talks to himself.
Stanley: Why does she always gotta do this to me?
By the time Stan calls out to her, again, she was already out of sight and not within range to answer back. While Xev is wandering around through a passage way, her stomach started to growl. It has been a couple of days, since she last ate, so being hungry makes sense. But, she has gone longer than that, without food, due to having no food on the Lexx. Due to being part cluster-lizard, her body kicks into survival mode.
Stan, soon, follows after Xev and ends up finding himself alone. Through a corridor, he calls out for Xev and ends up in another room, just after he picks up a brick, a young female figure, in ratty clothes and brunette hair, comes around the corner.
Tish: Who is Xev?
Stanley: Who are you?
Tish: I am Tish. Who is Xev?
Stanley: Xev is a woman dressed in a cluster-lizard skin outfit. I kinda lost track of her. I’m just trying to find her.
Tish: I can help you.
Stanley: You saying that makes me feel nervous.
Tish: Why?
Stanley: In the past, when someone wanted to help me, meant that they wanted to feed off my brain or something. You don’t have that in mind, do you?
Tish: I said I will help you.
As Tish walks off, she turns to notice Stan not following her.
Tish: Come along. I won’t bite your head off.
Just as Tish walks off, Stan runs after her to keep up, which she happens to lead him into a room full of other homeless people in ratty clothes. Stan, just looks around until Xev comes out of nowhere. As Stan approached Xev, he notices some red stuff that Xev seemed to be wiping from her mouth and a little bulge in her midsection. Stan being Stan, he acts like he doesn’t notice it.
Stanley: Xev? You’re Xev, aren’t you?
Xev: Wanna kiss me and find out?
Stanley: Yeah.
Just as Stan moves in for a kiss, Xev turns her head and he ends up kissing her cheek.
Stanley: Yep, you’re Xev.
Stan changes the subject.
Stanley: So, do you think these people are dangerous?
Xev: I don’t think so. I wouldn’t get much out of them, cause they’re not very direct.
Then one guy speaks out, amongst the crowd of homeless people lounging around. He happens to go by the name of Zin.
Zin: Thank you for helping us.
Stanley: Helping you with what?
Xev: Yeah, how did we help you?
Both Stan and Xev ask in confusion.
Zin: I don’t have to explain it, do I?
Zin asks as he approaches Stan and Xev, with a cheesy grin on his face.
Stanley: Yeah, if you don’t mind.
Zin just laughs, sarcastically, before responding to Stan.
Zin: I do mind, a lot.
Xev, then, takes Stan aside to speak privately, before being completely interrupted by another guy named Cab, who looked he had a burn scar on the left side of his face.
Cab: What’s with the secret conference?
Xev: It’s not a secret conference. We want to know who you people are and what this place is all about.
Cab: Well, how ‘bout the fact that we don’t know who you are, where you come from and what you want. That’s not counting the fact that we were doing just fine, til you came here to help us.
Stanley: What are you talking about?
Cab: You’re the one doing all this “helping”, so you tell me.
Xev: Like we said, we’re not here to help you.
Cab: That was pretty obvious from the beginning. Right?
Cab says to the crowd. They all answer back, agreeing with him. Xev starts to take that as a sign that they didn’t like her and Stan.
Xev: Okay, so you don’t like us.
Zin: Says who?
Zin lashes out from another direction. Xev faces him and calmly tries to explain herself.
Xev: The way you act, the way you talk to us, your whole attitude.
Zin: Excuse me. I think that you should improve your attitude for you criticize ours.
Xev, sort of, nods and agreement. Her focus is now over to Stan, who she sees approaching a woman who looks like she’s crying. It’s Tish and Stan tries to comfort her, by reaching his hand out to her, to touch her hand. But, it backfires.
Stanley: Tish, what is going on here?
Tish: Don’t touch me!
Tish lashes out. Stan, however, is feeling a bit confused and tries to explain himself.
Stanley: No, I wasn’t trying to...
Tish: To touch me, weren’t you?
Stanley: No! I was just trying to...
Tish: Don’t you dare think that you can just talk your way out of it.
Tish approaches the crowd, pointing out Stan and accusing him of something he hasn’t done.
Tish: He was trying to touch me!
Zin and the others agree.
Stan and Xev try to talk their way out of a situation, where it looks like they are being ganged up on.
Stanley: I don’t know what game you guys got going on here, cause I don’t want to be a part of it.
Zin just happens to notice the brick that Stan forgot that he had in his right hand.
Zin: What’s that brick for?
Stanley: I just had it in my hand.
Zin, then, picks up a metal club and waves it in front of Stan.
Zin: Well, I just had this in my hand.
After a brief silence, Cab makes an introduction.
Cab: Welcome to K-Town.
Xev swallows hard and starts backing away, cause there was a whole crowd with make-shift weapons, ready for attack.
Cab: Come on. Take a swing at me, with your brick.
That’s when Xev and Stan start running down the nearest corridor. Both end up being chased by the crazed people with their weapons. They run into rooms, but find themselves from one dead end to another. As long as they weren’t running into those people, they were fine. But, they have to hide somewhere. Inside a corridor, Stan and Xev lean against the walls to take a breather.
Stanley: What was that about?
Xev: I don’t know. This whole place makes no sense.
Stanley: Where to, now?
Xev: Wherever “they” aren’t.
It wasn’t long before Xev and Stan found themselves cornered by “them” from both directions of the corridor. Xev finds an opening, in a wall, and Stan follows after her. They end up, in a room, where there was no floor and a long steel beam to cross over to the other side. Stan crosses first and Xev second. The crowd is shouting for them to drop. Just when they thought they were safe, Zin and Tish greets them on the other side.
Zin: I took the easy way around. Time to teach you some manners.
That’s when Xev lets out her infamous cluster-lizard growl, startling Zin. As Zin started closing in on them, Xev and Stan found themselves on the beam again. Close to them, Xev and Stan notices a latter and climb up, getting away from the people of downstairs. From above, they could see the crowd chasing after Tish. Safe from above, they walk around, hoping to find a place “they” were not.
Out of nowhere, rocks are being thrown at Xev and Stan. They are taken by surprise and end up falling into a hole that’s ten feet down. They end up finding a small shelter, to shield themselves from rocks being hurled down at them. Stan and Xev sit down and comfort each other.
Stanley: Oh Xev, this is just one crazy place. I mean, both of these planets are completely crazy and they make no sense.
That’s when Stan takes notice of the message that he was receiving from Xev, as a sign of comfort.
Stanley: Oh Xev, that feels good. That’s one of the nicest feelings, I haven’t felt, in a long time.
Xev: It’s been hard, going for us, right?
Stanley: Yeah.
Stan changes the subject.
Stanley: Xev?
Xev: What?
Stanley: How are we ever gonna get off this planet? All I wanna do is get back to the Lexx.
Xev: There are probably balloons on this city. We’re gonna have to find one, somehow.
Stanley: If we found a balloon, they’re just not gonna hand it over to us.
Xev: Yeah, I guess you’re right.
That’s when Xev had something to tell Stan. She may never make it out of K-Town and they may never see the Lexx again.
Xev: Stan, we may never get out of here, but we must not give up hope.
Stanley: I hear ya.
Xev: Stan, there’s something I have to tell you.
Stanley: What is it?
Xev: I’m sure you’ve noticed that my midsection has gotten a little rounder, but not by much. I have been feeling different, lately, and I think they only way to explain it is that I may be with child.
Stan gives her a look of surprise. He didn’t expect to hear this.
Stanley: That’s different. Must be from that guy you met on Boomtown.
Xev: Something like that. You’re the first person I’ve told this too.
Stanley: If you’re with child, then we have to get you out of here where it’s safe.
Xev: Thanks, Stan. I want that too.
That’s when their moment was interrupted by another rock being thrown at them. Xev gets upset and confronts the rock throwers.
Xev: What is it with you people?
Xev shouts out. All she got, in response, was another rock being thrown down at her, which misses and hits the ground.
Xev: Answer me!
Zin: I just did.
Xev: No, you didn’t.
Zin: I will repeat my answer.
Zin says as he throws down another rock. That’s when Kai comes along and ends up falling down the hole too. Immediately, Xev could tell that something is wrong with Kai. Stan and Xev try to help Kai up and move him to where the rocks can’t hit them.
Xev: Kai, what’s wrong?
Kai: When I first jumped down from the Lexx, onto the planet Water, my systems were damaged. Now, it appears the “damage seems to be progressing.
Stanley: What exactly is wrong with you?
Kai: That, you will have to determine.
Xev: How?
Kai: I will guide you.
Stanley: There can’t be a chance that you’re completely broken. You are indestructible.
Kai makes a correction to Stan.
Kai: I am hard to destroy, but I am not indestructible.
After being laid down and stripped, Xev was quite surprised to see Kai without his clothes. It was her dream, but the least thing she expected was to see a copper-colored metal codpiece between his legs, instead of his “thing”. At that moment, she started to feel nauseated and wanted to throw up, but resisted in front of Kai and Stan.
Xev: I always wondered if you still had your “equipment”.
Kai: As you can see, I have a lot of equipment, but is not all functional.
Xev: Will this take long?
Kai: I don’t know. That depends on the extent of the damage.
Xev: What do I do?
Kai: First, remove my power and control rods, and put them into the matching slots on my chest.
Xev: Where are your control rods?
Kai: There, between my legs.
Kai says as he struggles to point out.
Xev: How?
Kai: Turn and pull.
Stanley: Hope this doesn’t take long, cause we need you up and around, Kai.
Stan says as he looks around. He hears the rocks, being thrown, hitting the floor and the walls. Xev turns and pulls all, but one of the rods, from Kai’s codpiece, and hold on to them.
Xev: It turns out that the living Kai, in the balloon, had nothing to do with you at all. He only looked like you on the outside.
Stanley: On the inside, he was one hundred percent Prince.
Kai: Where is Prince now?
Xev: Dead. I pushed him off the thorn.
Stanley: Yeah, he’s defiantly dead.
Kai changes the subject.
Kai: Once you remove the last rod, I will stop working completely.
Xev: How will I know what to do?
Kai: After you remove the last rod, you must put them into the matching slots on my chest. Then, I will be able to diagnose my condition. I contain many micro biological, mechanical systems that they...
That’s when Xev pulled out the last rod. The she puts the first rod into one of the slots on Kai’s chest, which ends up making Kai’s body go haywire. Both Xev and Stan weren’t sure if they did it right and just kept inserting the rods. On the last rod, they watched as he was able to diagnose himself. Kai continued to speak.
Kai: I contain many micro biological, mechanical systems that they do many duplicate functions. My systems were damaged, when I first crashed onto the planet Water.
Stanley: Which means?
Kai: I’m out of alignment.
Stanley: Can that be fixed?
Kai: That, you will have to determine.
Xev: How?
Kai: First, return the control rods to their original position.
Once the rods were back in place and Kai dressed, Xev and Stan carry Kai over to where they fell in, to climb out of the hole, while Zin, Cab and Tish continue to through rocks at them. As soon as Xev makes it to the top, she ends up grabbing Cab’s leg and pulls him down to the bottom of the pit. Then, Xev continues to pulls Kai up and then help Stan up out of the pit. Once out of the whole, Stan makes a comment to Tish.
Stanley: You people are completely useless in every way.
Tish: Cutting remark. You must be the king of wits.
Stanley: Ha ha.
Xev and Stan walk off, carrying Kai. Leaving Zin to come around and push Tish down the hole, with Cab, and starts throwing rocks down at them and laughing. On the other hand, Xev and Stan find a a good place to drop Kai.
Stanley: This looks like a good spot.
Xev: Are you sure this is the right solution.
Kai: No, but it is the only.
Stanley: How are you gonna land right? You can hardly move.
Kai: I still have limited motor control. The drop will take time. I will attempt to modify my landing position during my decent.
Xev: Attempt?
Kai: I will do my best.
Stanley: Then, you’re gonna come back up and rescue us.
Kai: If I return to normal function, I will return immediately and rescue you.
That’s when Xev and Stan push Kai off the edge of the city. After waiting, they happen to notice a balloon picking him up. Turns out that Kai is still out of alignment. The balloon ends up heading over to a city. Xev starts walking off.
Stanley: Where are you going?
Xev: To that city.
Stanley: How?
Xev: I don’t know.
That’s when they both come across a familiar face.
Xev: Prince!
Prince stands there, doesn’t say anything, but smile.
