Season 4

Season 4 is about: The battle of kings, about GODS, about self-sacrifices, about honor and peace BEYOND death, about POWER and how to get it, how to ABUSE it … it is about leadership of whatever kind, it is about the greater good or greater bad, about power corrupting people, it is about strategy and anti-strategy. It is about warriors leading the fate of whole armies, not about individual persons anymore.

Finally Kai gets to SOMETHING, and Prince discovers his true self being. And Xev and Stan, they somehow grow up, get adult - get responsible, - and the endless circle of ’death bears new life’ starts again and again … 

The only way out, is the one, that Kai always tried to take …

4.01 - Little blue planet 

Newfoundland 1901:
A lot of snow on a rocky, icy beach.  About 5 men in thick jackets and woolen gloves and woolen hats / caps surround a table on the shore. On the table some primitive electric devices ...
There is a dialogue in Italian.
Man 1 to a young man with a flying ‘dragon’: "It is to slide, idiota! Too low, bring up-a!"
He handles a tool-kit, switches it on, electronic stuff,  radio receiver, listens at his attached headphone.

A man and a old man watch the Italian man listening for signals.
The younger one: “Fine weather ever, Mister Macaroni, hah?”
Man 1 upset: "Marconi! Macaroni is a pasta!"
Man 2 shrugs his shoulders, grins: "Yeah, whatever you say, Medaci!"
"Macaroni!" shouts Marconi ... "Batteria." he commands the guys. "Connect the batteria!"
Man 2 does it.
Marconi starts to morsel to the stars, and there is a high pitched tweeting answering!
Marconi: "Santa Lucia! - Today we make historia!"
And enthusiastically  he throws his hat high up into the air!
Marconi: “Hahaha, Mama Mia!”

We fly up higher, above the planet Earth, the space, behind the moon ... Mars, Jupiter, still hearing the morsel signals, and the alien signals gets closer, - out of the galaxy. There flies a rocky asteroid with antennas on it toward the milky way and it starts its engines!

Trailer

Washington, D.C. in the very near future, the White House, police escorts are passing by with sirens. They travel along a main road, leave the city and to a large field, with a secret pass-way to underneath the Earth, - in the background a factory of some extensional size, like a power plant or such ... 
The portal to the subway opens when the car trek is approaching. Security scans each entering persons eyes for identification.
A black and a old white man with a bad fitting hair-wig enter an elevator, which descends fast into an unknown depth. Its door opens at a very large hall, watched by well-armed guards.
The delegation is about 10 people large, they all look very official ... 
They gather around a large table in the hall, that large and high set windows let the interior look like a post-modern church of some kind.

They all take seats on a common sign, the elder man pulls medication-tubs of some kind in front of him on the table, and right next to him sits: good old blond PRINCE in a nice suit.

Prince: "Mister President, last Tuesday ATF-Agents working at SETI, a civilian organization that searches for extraterrestrial intelligence, reported that a twelve year old boy, from Sulfur, Louisiana,  ..."
(snipping his finger, spotlight on the very boy he talks about, who is hanging on one of the walls, pretty high above the ground, - on metal handcuffs and a mouth gag ...  The president / the old man looks up and feels unsure what to do about the struggling, complaining  boy ...)
P: "...extensible at a schools science project, called SETIs headquarters to report, that he had spotted a large self-propelled unidentified object in the fencinities of the Earth's moon. And do not feel mislead by feelings of sympathy. This boy, Mr. President is likely part of the greatest threat that the human race has ever faced."
He snips with his fingers again and the light turns off from the boy, captured high on the wall.
Prince: "The discovery of extraterrestrial life on the Earth's fencinities automatically triggers the H. Leaven-plan and the ATF went into immediate action. We eliminated all personages employed at SETI along with their relatives and acquaintances and we destroyed their headquarters building. The FBI effectively credit this action to religious fanatics and all the news organization with the exception of a few insignificant journalists, effectively bought the explanation. As part of the plan, any potentially suspicious journalists were eliminated by the CIA. I think, we should congratulate the FBI, the CIA and the boys of the bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms on a job well done!"
Applause from all on the table!
President: "Can you remind me, what is the H.-Leaven plan?"
Prince: "The secret legislation of advice by senators H. Leaven, which you signed into law last year?"
President looks not happy, and not remembering anything.
Prince whispers: "They agreed to forget that little unpleasantness with the French ambassador’s daughter?"
The president swallows and shuts up.
Prince: "Mr. President, a communication has been arranged between you and the aliens, as due to start at 0900 hours - that is in exactly 37 seconds."
Prince takes a look at his watch.
President: "I am not prepared for that, you know ..."
Prince: "No worries."
President: "You know, I never speak without ..."
Prince: "All possible answers have been carefully offered by our best scientists and philosophers. - Just follow the reply cards!"
Prince gives him a big stack of little note-cards ... 
Prince: "Do not say anything, that is not on the cards! The fate of the Earth is in your hands!"
This statement makes the president pretty nervous! He searches the cards ...
A signal tweets and a screen runs into action, showing a pretty familiar red/blue control-blossom and a security guard 4th class on it ... 
Prince: "Do not be mislead by awkward appearance, Mr. President, this aliens are more advanced, than we are. And can likely display themselves in ways calculated to make us lower our guard. Stick to the cards!"
Stan somehow search-looking into the camera ...
Stan: "Okay, so, we are here, you are there ... what's the deal?"
President grins in the camera with a diplomatic face.
President: "We are a benign species apposed to interplanetary conflicts and believe in equal opportunity of all beings regardless for age, race, gender, sexual orientation or planet of origin."
Stan: "Well, that is nice, but let this stand over, okay? I want you ... to tell me, what the people on your planet are going to do to make Stanley H. Tweedle a happier man..."
Well THAT request is not on the reply-cards, so the President gets nervous! Fumbling at the cards ...
President (to Prince): "This is not right!"
Prince: "Stick to the cards, Mr. President. All possibilities have been anticipated! - Do not deviate from the cards!"
Mr. President is grinning diplomatically into the camera!
President: "Congratulations on your birthday!"
Stan: "How do you know, it is my birthday?"
Prince is somehow surprised as well. And Stan is getting impatient.
President: "We look joyfully forward to sharing the many benefits of our combined knowledge."
Stan: "Ah, look, I don't know, when my birthday is, and I don't think, you do either, okay? Whatever. Lets get down to some real business here. Now I want to know about your planet, why would a guy like me wonna go down there?"
President: "Tell us about your species. Are you friendly?"
Stan: "Ah, yeah, very, under the right circumstances, you know, what I mean? You see, I am just a man, like any other man, with desires and pulls and dreams ... and an interest in finer ...."
“Stick to you cards, Mr. President." grins Prince. The President is searching the stack again! ...
Stan: "things, ...  like has to offer, especially warm, cuddling smoothy things ... you know, what I mean!"  Stan grins brightly.
President: "Our planet is decaying in its own filth and is best avoided by all aliens".
Stan: "Look, pal, I don't know what is going on about, except it does not make any sense at all ...I mean, look, what I want, is ... is a place with nice beaches, good food and open minded interesting attractive women and not a human else, so, start help me out here, okay? Make this work for me!"
Mr. President looks at Prince for advice, but he is shrinking his shoulders.
Stan: "Okay, buddy old Mr. President, there is something, you are not aware, okay? ... I think, you should know, I am Stanley H. Tweedle and I am captain of the most powerful destructive force in the two universes, and I have blown up plenty of planets. And if I don't start getting a little cooperation from you. I am going to use your little blue planet for target-practice."
President: "We have the capacity and the will to defend ourselves aggressively against any and all unfriendly alien intrusion."
Stan angry: "Oh, yeah? Okay? That is the way you want it? Fine by me. I have quite enough attitude from you. Conversation is over." 
Stan shuts the connection down.
All the audience in the hall is getting upset, Mr. President looks at Prince for advice. Prince pulls open a folder and hands the President a paper.
Prince: "The Earth is clearly threatened, Mr. President. It is time to pull full H. Leaven into effect!"
Prince offers him his weapon / cigar shaped pen.
President: "I prefer to use my lucky pen! If you don't mind, Easenbar." - that would be a cowboy-childish one, and it does not write !
Prince: "Here, try my lucky pen."
And Mr. President signs.

On board of the Lexx, which is orbiting the Earth's moon.
Stan: "I admit, there are good planets and there are bad planets. And THAT there is definitely not a good one." He points angrily at the screen. Xev circles him. 
Stan: "And I think the whole universe is just better off without it!"
He enters the control-blossom and the handprint-panel appears: "Lexx, blow up that stupid blue little planet."
Stan: "Just, just, - blow it, blow it ... AH!"
But when Stan puts his hand on it, nothing happens! ...
Stan trys to hit the air: "Blow it up, blow it !!"
Xev approaches him. Stan leaves the blossom and Xev enters. The key appears and Lexx accepts it.
Xev: "Lexx, could you blow up that planet, if I ask you to?"
Lexx: "Yes, I could, Captain. I can blow up any planet you want!"
Stan is desperate because of not being a captain anymore ! And runs wild in front if the blossom: "See that ..."
Lexx: "That is, what I do."
Xev: "Thank you, Lexx. But we will not blow it up, - yet."
Stan: "That is just ... how can you still have the key to the Lexx, hah? I am the captain, and I think, I should have the key back, right now!"
Xev grins and let the key show up mockingly.
Stan: "Kai!" 
Stan goes at the side of Kai: "Kai, don't you agree with me? I am the captain. And I should have the key back."
Kai just looks at him, is not moving any muscle in his face at all ... Stan gets no answer ! Just a LOOK.
Xev: "Well, as we all know, ..." she starts touching Stan’s shoulder, "you can only get the key from me, if I am on the extreme sexual ecstasy, - or the very edge of death. Neither of which is about to happen right now."
She grips Stan pretty hard, and he shrugs her off ...
790: "Kill the bitch, Stan. The security guard can become captain and blow up this planet and Kai and I and Kai can sail off together on a slut-free voyage."
Kai: "In my memories I have but limited knowledge of this universe. However, I believe that this planet it at the very center of the darkest part of the dark-zone. It may be advisable to leave the fencinities as soon as possible."
Stan: "Okay. That is enough for me, just COME ON, Xev. Just blow off this stupid planet and then we go someplace else, where we can find ourselves a NICE planet."
790: "It makes little difference whether or not your destroy this planet, it is a class of type 13 planet which typically destroys itself about this stage of its development."
Xev: "How?"
790: "Sometimes through war, often through environmental catastrophe but more commonly a type 13 planet is unintentionally collapsed into a pea-sized object by scientist trying to determine the mass of the higgs bosom particle."
Kai: "Xev, ask the Lexx how long it will take him to reach the nearest ... other solar system." He hesitates at the word 'other' and solar system ...
Xev: "Lexx, how long will it take you to reach the nearest solar system?"
Lexx: "I do not know. I was only able to eat a few small rocky bites."
Xev passes Kai who is looking pretty thoughtful behind her.
Lexx: "After I blew up the water and desert planets. And they were not very tasty. I am still very hungry. So I can not go very fast."
Kai: "The Lexx has very little power reserve remaining. It could take hundreds of standard years to reach the next solar system. And even if he shuts down fully, he may not be revivable once we arrive."
Stan sits despaired at the blossom, covers his face.
790: "It is obvious. The slut and the security guard should go down to this stupid planet to join the other low lives and the corpsy love will stay up here on the Lexx for ever and ever."
Kai: "The next solar system may or may not have the digestible organic material the Lexx needs. This one clearly does."

On the Earth, on a death row, a man in chains on his last walk, guarded by officers. They reach the electrocution chamber. The villain looks pretty well, middle 30, good styled hair ... clean, and cool ... not once sweating.
The officers put brown, gluey stuff on his hands and forehead and foot angles, chain him on the chair, putting up the cable hat.
Officer: “Any last words, cobra?"
Cobra with strong Russian accent: "Yes. Can somebody PLEASE clean my fingernails, they are filthy! - They are filthy!"
One officer hands the closest one a handkerchief. And the executioner really cleans Cobra’s fingers.
Cobra demands: "The pinky."
And again, the officer does as ordered.
Cobra: "Thank you."
They leave him, the executioner takes on rubber-gloves to protect his hands from the electric sparks. Another one takes his watch for the right moment to check ...
Cobra does not seam to be slightly nervous, just thoughtful.
The officer with the watch gives the sign, the executioner pulls the large trigger-handle, - it zips, then the PHONE rings ... 
Officer with watch: "Yes, it is, yes, yes, Sir."
Executioner: "The governor?"
"No, the ATF." - "The ATF?"
The officer explains: "The bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms."
Cobra relaxes.

At the White House.
An interrogation room probably at the basement, white walls, where Prince walks on and on - next to the seated president, when the guards put Cobra in and on the chair in front of several spotlights ... Cobra is chained in a suicidal caretaker-robe.
President: "Are you sure about him?"
Prince: "Cobra is the most psychotic killer on this planet and therefore perfect. - Mister Cobra. Is that how you like to be addressed?"
Cobra: "Just 'Cobra'."
Prince: "Cobra. Well, you have two choices, Mr. Cobra. You can either go straight to the electric chair and be executed for your many crimes or you can save the human race by assassinating its most dangerous enemy."
Cobra: "What's the deal?"
Prince: "The deal is: that you will be send up in the space shuttle to intercept an enemy alien spacecraft. You will enboard the craft and kill the crew."
Cobra: "I don't know, how to drive a space shuttle."
Prince: "Think of it as a taxi. NASA pilots will be doing the driving, all you will have to do is what we all agree you are very good at doing! The killing."
Cobra: "What is my reward?"
Prince: "Certain death. It is a one way mission. The shuttle will use all its fuel to get to the alien craft. There will be no return journey. The only payment will be your opportunity to do some more maiming mutilation and murder before entering oblivion yourself. And there is room on the shuttle for three more men. Black barrios, CIA special OPs, the Tekanos, anyone you want."
Cobra: "Then I need only two man: Mustapha Alhambra, Al Ritzeminowitz."
Prince: "And where may I to find those two gentlemen?"
President waves Prince to him: "I have the CIAs on Alhambra's trail in Afghanistan."
Prince: "Good."
Cobra: "That is Mohammed Alhambra, Mustapha Alhambra, he is an manicurist in Boston. Ritzeminowitz, he is my personal trainer."
Prince: "So, do we have a deal?"
Cobra gives Prince a long look.

The space shuttle starts.
Two astronauts at the front, piloting the thing, Cobra right behind the female pilot, the other two men in a row in the back. Quite an uncomfortable flight, shaking them, loud etc. Loosing its secondary rockets after leaving the atmosphere ... ., finally there is silence in space and no gravity left. Splitting from the last big rocket thing, straight going for the moon now.
Pilot-man: "Green lights all the way, Huston. We are on our way to the moon."
Huston: "Good speed mission Like-Regay. We are with you all the way."
Cobra inspects his fingernails.
Cobra: "Just across the bay." and he shows his nails to Alhambra, on the seat on the other side of the craft. 
Pilot: "What do you mean by that?"
Cobra: "They are save and sound on Earth. Not up here. On a one way trip."
Ritzeminowitz: "You NASA guys might be on a one way trip. Not me."
Alhambra: "Me neither." starts manicuring Cobra's nails.
Pilot-woman: "Face it, there is no going home for any of us! And I consider it an honor and a privilege to give my life to save the whole human race."
The three villains laugh out loud.
Ritzeminowitz come to the front: "So tell us, how do you drive this thing?"
The other two follow and watch the pilots closely, Ritzeminowitz takes something from the bag-storage overhead.
Pilot-man: "First you have to be a top gun pilot. Then you have to spend eight very challenging years on simulators before your name even gets on the list. But it is not really that hard, when you get used to it."
Cobra: "Show me."
Pilot-man: "You put this leaver here when you wonna drive, when you want to go forward, and our we don't need to go in reverse."
Ritzeminowitz: "And how do you control the speed?"
Pilot-Man: "With this pedal down at your foot. Just like in a car."
There really is a pedal at his foot, and it looks pretty much like a foot-shaped one for play-cars.
The three villains look at each other, pet on each shoulders and seam to be very self-convinced and satisfied.
The space shuttle continues its journey!

Lexx: "I am so hungry!" says Lexx while circling the moon. "I could eat an whole continent!"
Stan: "But you are only going to eat a small green salad."
Xev: "You heard him, Lexx. Just enough to keep you going. Just a small green ... what?"
Xev is standing inside the control blossom and Stan is walking impatiently up and down.
Stan: "Salad."
Xev: "Salad."
Lexx: "A small green salad is not enough for me to fly away at full speed."

At the shuttle right between Earth and moon.
Huston: "Mission Like-Regay."
Ritzeminowitz: "Yes, Huston."
Houston: "New information the alien craft has left its stationary orbit on the dark side of the moon and it's now on a trajectory aimed directly towards the Earth in the territory of south-America."
Ritzeminowitz looks straight into the video camera on board in the front, at the pilot seats, - which are abandoned right now. The two other guys do something in the back of the shuttle.
Houston: "We recommend that you modify your course..."
Ritzeminowitz pushes some button on one seat: "Yes, Houston?"
Houston: "Can we speak to Commander Brickton or Dr. Courrow?"
Ritzeminowitz: "Ah, they are heaving a little oxygen problem, Houston. To tied to open the bag."
Houston: "Can we see them?"
Ritzeminowitz: "Big negative on that, Houston."
Houston: "Ah, sorry, but we insist, we must see Courrow and Brickton."
Ritzeminowitz: "Okay, but only if you really, really insist."
And Ritzeminowitz pulls the camera out of the board and the image blurs.
Houston: "We really, really insist."
Ritzeminowitz: "Okay, you asked for it!"
And he takes the camera to the two bond corpse of the two pilots. Open eyed, floating in zero gravity.
Ritzeminowitz: "Smile Courrow and Brickling."
And Cobra and Alhambra take positions beside them, smiling and mocking with the dead faces.
Alhambra shouts: "Look!"
Then, suddenly, the Lexx is approaching!
The three jump into the pilot-seats and try to take control. Cobra pulls the leaver, the shuttle makes a fast jump and trys to outrun the Lexx by passing it fast - but the Lexx has other thoughts.
Cobra: "Tricky." says Cobra, when he pulls the steer-wheel toward him, it looks like straight from a cowboy-car! Not spacey at all! 
Ritzeminowitz: "It is coming in very fast. Cobra, we better slow down."
Combra tries to find the brake-pedal right to the speed one, but there is only empty space.
Cobra: "No brakes, this thing has no brakes!"
Ritzeminowitz: "Mustn’t have been an option."
Lexx focuses on the shuttle.
Lexx: "Mh mh mh, first a tasty snack and then a salad. I am excited an A!"
790 watches the approaching craft.
Ritzeminowitz: "The other way, the other way!" But Cobra pulls and pulls like hell, the steer wheel is no help at all to escape. Rockets firing by random ... still fast approaching.
Alhambra in panic and shaking violently back and forth in the shuttle - unseated: "Cobra, Cobra, are you going to keep this?"
The dead body starts some macabre dance in the back of the shuttle.
Cobra: "Yes, you can see: the alien space ship. It is tangling with us."
The Lexx simply swallows the shuttle. Right before entering the mouth, Cobra pushes the hook violently. Then the shuttle enters Lexx abdomen, the airbags come up as the shuttle stops suddenly! And a strange little metal-hull with a anti-alien sign on a side rolls from under the control-board.... The shuttle came to a rest, still smoking, - on the bottom of one of Lexx stomachs.
Cobra fumbles at the communicator: "Houston! Houston? Can you hear me?"
Alhambra: "What is that?" and sees the cylindrical metal thing. It looks pretty much like a ... bomb.
Cobra inspects it and opens the chase, there is a double key slot and a display, now dead.
Ritzeminowitz points to the dead bodies of the pilots, and the keys dangling down from their necks. "Hey!"
Alhambra takes one of the keys and hands it to Ritzeminowitz, which also takes the second one, then he notices the fingernails of the male pilot: "Ah, ouuuuh." And he starts manicuring them.
Cobra tries the first key, Ritzeminowitz the second, similarly they twitch!
Cobra: "Ready?"
Ritzeminowitz nods ... and they turn, - and the display turns on and counts back from 59:59.
Alhambra: "I really think, you should switch that off!"
They try, but to no use, the keys don't work anymore! Alhambra gets impatient.
Cobra: "Bella, they said it would be a one way trip!"

The Lexx is approaching Earth, down to a very green continent.

In a jungle a boat with mostly elder tourists on a river, all dressed in typical tropical dresses, like a fashion-show.
The leader: "We have contact!"
Religious woman starts to pray: "Oh mother prior, we thank you for the gift of this divine moment!"
Leader: "Its beginning, we should be able to see them with the naked eyes soon."
And then they suddenly really see it, a couple of glowing coo cants ... ! And a elder man is trying to phone his wife, another one is eager to take it on camera.
Elder man: "It is really happening, honey! I am right here in the middle of the Amazon jungle, watching the last living pair of luminousant Paraguay coo cants, doing the glowing thing. Just like on the discovery channel? The birds only two years ago were thought to just be an Indian legend, which I am about to capture on my own camera!"
And he lifts his one and shoots - with a flash ! - And the shy animals fly away! Suddenly some terrible noise.
Elder man: "What was that?"
Leader: "I don't know."
Elder man: "Hey, you guys said, that this part of the jungle was truly undisturbed! You practically guarantied it!"
Fat man: "Yeah you, once we most turn backward, return my 12.000 bucks."
Elder man: "Put us back in 10 minutes or you will gonna hear from my lawyer!" The boat rocks violently ...
Then suddenly there is a big light, and a big insect from outer space approaching ... the Lexx starts eating the jungle.
 And it turns dark !

At the White House, in the oval office, several people gather around three TV-screen, which show different angles of a TV studio and a live connection to another one.
TV: "As we predicated polls we confirm that republicans and democratic are neck on neck. But on early curiosities the equally strong showing for an independent candidate war hero Reginald J. Priest."
President: "Who is Reginald J. Priest?"
TV: "Ah, Reginald J. Priest is the Vietnam war pilot shot down over Laos in 1969, who lived in the jungle for the last three decades, until he turned himself into a Belgium tour bus, turned himself over a Belgium tour bus, earlier this year."
President: "I don't understand this at all."
Expert on TV: "Typically we find the voters, who are frustrated with the traditional parties, often express this frustration by casting their ballads for independence."
President is shocked. Prince grins and the President sets a paintings frame on the wall straight.
Expert on TV: "So it may be that this particular ex-example is telling us, that the Americans are very frustrated. But I have to admit, it is certainly first to see so many voters to poll the same almost unknown candidate."
TV: "No-one, including us, seams to know very much about Reginald J. Priest, other than the fact that he was a Vietnam war MIA, but remind you, that this is just an early exit-bull, which will likely have little further meaning as the official results starts pouring in from across the nation."
Expert: "You know, Bob, I have to admit that in the privacy of the poll-sooth this morning I couldn't bring myself to vote for either one, and Reginald Priest did hold out in the jungle for thirty-two years. So I put my mark beside his name, - and it looks like a lot of other people had had the same ... good idea."
Prince gets a mobile phone call: "This is Prince? Really?"
President walks up and down: "This could screw the results!"
Prince: "Mr. President, it is the national security council."
President: "Can't they leave me alone, it is the middle of election night!"
Prince: "They say, that the alien space craft just has taken a big bite out of the Amazon rain forest, leaving a large lake."
TV: "President Eisenhower ..."
President: "Maybe this Priest guy has save half of the votes from Havernow than from me. Maybe that is just what I need to go over the top..."
Prince: "NASA has lost contact with the space shuttle, and think that the crew are dead."
President shouts: "Who cares about the stupid space shuttle in the middle of election night!"
He falls down on the couch, Prince grins at him, sitting next to him.
TV-Bob: "Results are pouring in from all over the Eastern time zone and a .... and ..."
TV-Bob listens to his ear plug.
TV-Bob: "And ah ... ladies and gentlemen, the computer is making a prediction, the president of the United States of America over the next four years will be ..."
President gets up, excited!
TV-Bob (is actually played by Lex Gigeroff) : "Repeat that, please? - What? - Hold on, please, we are expecting technically difficulty. - You know that the bills have been wrong before. - Democracy never fails to humiliate the arrogant, whether they be experienced political candits or politicians who have lost the faith of the American people. The next president of the United States of America is independent candidate and war hero Reginald J. Priest."
Prince grins very bright and the President is shocked !
TV-Bob: "We will take you now live to Mr. Priest's campaign headquarters in Atlantic City New Jersey."
Priest (at his home, living room): "My first official act will be to pull on President Davidson for his crimes."
Press: "What crimes are you referring to?"
Priest: "All of them."
Davidson: "Oh, that's a relief."
Priest: "It is part of my policy overrule general amnesty for all criminals who's names begin with the letter 'P'."
Davidson looks at Prince, who is pretty cool and untouched at all. Just slightly grinning.
Press: "But Davidson starts with a 'D'."
Priest: "Both 'P' and 'D' than!"
Davidson: "The people have let me down."
Prince: "The people are human beings, Mr. President, and human beings are a floored / floured species."

On the board of the Lexx, back in the way to the moon.
790: "Captain?"
Stan: "What, 790?"
790: "You don't mind, if I still call you captain, even though Xev has the key?"
Stan sits down on the control blossom.
Stan impatient: "No."
790: "Do you think, there is any chance that my beloving dead man might be prefer to be with a dirty little love slave over a good looking, clever, passionate, well loyal robot head in pines of his stiff every second of the day?"
Stan: "I wouldn't rule that out."
790: "WHAT?"
Stan: "Actually I think Kai DOES prefer to be with Xev."
790: "Kill the cow, Stanley! It's the best thing you can ever do for me ! And when Xev dies the key will leave her and will flow to your body and you will be captain again."
Stan: "You know, 790, you got a one track mind."
790: "Thank you."
Stan: "Xev will give me the key back, I will be captain again, I know it!"
790: "You won't. The only way to get it our of her is to either bring her to the extremes edge of sexual ecstasy or to the moment of death!"
Just this second: the crew of the shuttle, Cobra and his men are entering the bridge from a side tunnel, right behind Stan.
790: " - you can't bring Xev to the edge of sexual ecstasy because she finds you utterly incompletely repulsive. So that means, you have to kill her sooner or later. And I would prefer sooner."
Stan: "You know, 790, I admit, sometimes Xev really does make me feel like 'want to kill her', you see, but I am not a psychotic robot head .So the answer is definitely 'NO'."
790: "I kill her then!"
Stan: "No, you won't!"
Stan leaves the room in the opposite direction of the shuttle crew. He doesn't notice them !
790: "Yes, I will!"
Stan: "How?"
790: "I'll find a way! I will!"
Stan goes away through on of the side tunnels.
Cobra enters and the two pals follow, when Cobra inspects the control blossom. Alhambra takes a closer look at 790 on the ground.
They all sit down.
Cobra: "I'll kill her for you!"
790: "You will?"
Cobra: "You show me, how to get the key to drive this ship. And that dirty little love slave? - Will be history."
790: "You are not attracted to a 6000 year old dead man, are you?"
Cobra: "In what sense?"
790: "In a 'romantic and devoted, uncontrollably madly passionate robot head in love' - sense."
Cobra laughs: "No."
Alhambra thinks about it: "I could be."

Stanley, at the cryo chamber, fumbles at the control unit, and after a while of failed trials he manages to open the pod with Kai within. Kai opens his eyes.
Stan: "790's circuits are fried! - Well, he says, he wants to kill Xev. Because he thinks, that you might prefer to be with her instead of him."
Kai gets up.
Kai: "The dead do not have preferences."
Stan: "Well, mechanical minds definitely do. - Look, I am afraid, if we don't tell him right now, that it is not right to kill Xev, he might find a way to do it!"
Kai: "Do you want me to destroy 790?"
Stan: "Yes, whhhh, no, look, he is definitely irritating, bad or not, I don't know, about you and your dead body. He is..."
Kai: "What?"
Stan: "I don't know, he is ... he is ... "
Kai: "Useful?"
Stan: "No, no ... mh, ..."
Kai leaves the pod and approaches Stanley, somehow eager to hear the reply.
Kai: "What then?"
Stan: "You know, much as I don't like him, and I mean, what I am saying. Just, ... I don't want to see him turn into scrabbles just yet. Because, he is part of family, I guess."
Kai: "What family?"
Stan hesitates: "Us!" - And Stan hurries away. Kai almost grins and then follows Stan into the corner.
Stan: "And Kai you got to help me, put some sense into Xev, so let's say, so we should move on."
Kai: "To where?"
Stan: "Don't mind, where people aren't so rude."
Kai: "The Lexx has eaten enough to sustain his systems for now. But he must consume far more organic material if he is able to travel any distance at full speed."
Kai takes the lead around one corner now. Stan stops him, holding back Kai at his arm.
Stan: "Ow, so what do you suggest?"
Kai hesitates: "The dead do not make suggestions. - Normally. But there is clearly more than sufficient organic material on the blue planet to satisfy Lexx' dietary needs."
Stan follows in Kai's track, when he start moving again.

In the meantime the tourist-travelers which were swallowed with a large part of the surrounding jungle-flora and fauna explore their environment, - orange dark Lexx' stomach.
Religious Woman: "Isn't that the space shuttle?"
And there it is, right in front.

Xev sits on her bed, cleaning / scratching her fingernails, legs spread wide open ... singing to herself a little song from Brigadoom (love song together with Kai).
Cobra: "Xev."
Xev hesitates, closes her legs, when Cobra enters her room quietly.
Cobra: "May I do that for you?" 
She looks at her nails.
Xev: "Who are you?"
Cobra: "I am a love slave."
Xev: "I thought all love slaves were women."
He is slowly circling the bed.
Cobra: "Why?"
But Xev has no answer and shrugs her shoulders. "Where did you come from?"
Cobra approaches from behind: "I have been on the Lexx for a long time. Since you first left the cluster."
Xev thinks back: "How comes, I have never seen you before?"
Cobra: "The Lexx is a big ship."
Xev: "It certainly is...big. How did you survive?"
Cobra circles once more and then gets closer, face to face.
Cobra: "I placed myself in a cell in the moth-breeding chamber."
He sits down beside Xev and crawls even closer to her. 'Needing' her.
Cobra: "Xev, I am a love slave. I have special needs. And special talents."
Face to face, very close.
Xev: "I definitely have special needs and very special talents. - 4000 years is a long time."
Cobra: "Too long!"
Xev: "You know my name."
Cobra: "A love slave has to be careful to survive. - I have been here, too, for a long time. I just couldn't hold on any longer!"
And he takes her hand and inspects her finger nails.
Xev: "Neither can I."
And Xev gets up, let Cobra stay behind on the bed.

On the bridge. Kai and Stan watch 790 circling the bridge
Kai: "790, promise me that you will not do anything to harm Xev."
790: "Kai, my circuits are sizzling with desire. Let's run away the two of us. We don't need the Lexx, we don't need oxygen, we can spend the rest of our lives in a vacuum on that moon."
Stan: "Kai is not going to spend the rest of his life anywhere, because Kai is dead."
Stan goes to the blossom and sits down.
790: "I know that, and I don't have a body either. But my love is very much alive, so what else do we need?"
Even Kai gets almost impatient after such speeches.
790 stops in front of Stan: "Stan."
Stan: "What now, meet grounder?"
790: "Let's talk."
Stan: "Yeah, about what?"
790: "Things."
Stan: "What things?"
790: "You and me, our friendship?"
Kai seams to get suspicious.
790: "How we both desire other people. But can never find the fulfillment we seek. - We have a lot in common."
Stan feels offended by that: "Hohoho. I have nothing in common with you, pal!"
Kai approaches rapidly: "What is it, 790?"
790: "What?"
Kai: "There is something you are not telling us!"
790 shuts his mouth. Kai sits down next to him.
Kai: "What?"
790: "It hurts to last for the dead!"
Kai takes him up from his board, looks deadly serious: "That is not it!"
790: "What is it then?"
Kai: "You tell us!"
Stan: "Is it something about Xev?"
Kai takes a short look into Stan’s direction, 790 keeps being quiet. 
Kai demands: "Answer."
790: "I told them everything they needed to know in order to get the key and they agreed to kill Xev for me."
Kai very serious now: "Who?"
790: "I don't know. The evil murderers who came onto the bridge. I don't care as long as I get rid of Xev."
Kai lets the head fall down and hurries in the direction of Xev’s room. Stan follows.

Xev with Cobra in the 'kitchen', she touches the nozzle and it is ejecting of the blue gluey stuff, she tastes it. Cobra takes off his jacket in the meanwhile.
Cobra: "I have a surprise for you, Xev."
She lets him lick her finger from the blue stuff.
Xev: "What's that?"
Cobra: "I am a bad boy."
Xev: "I don't mind."
Cobra: "Maybe you don't understand, I am a very bad boy."
Xev: "I am a very bad girl."
Cobra: "Ah, I do believe that, baby. - But what I mean, is that, all I intended to do was kill you."
They are close to kiss each other, but Cobra pulls up his finger manicure thing and treats Xev with it.
Cobra: "...to get the key to this ship. But now that I have seen what you look like in a flesh, I am going to break with my tradition. And do you first. - And once I have my complete personal and uniquely special satisfaction, I am going to squeeze the breath right out of you."
Xev: "Why do you tell me this?"
Cobra: "It makes it more exciting. Doesn't it?"
Cobra: "Well, it does for me, baby. And that is all that counts."
Xev: "See, I am not a baby, and yeah, - go in, big boy and do me."
Xev starts to seduce him, kissing him.
Cobra: "I dig, dig your clothes. They are nice, but not perfect."
Xev: "What?"
Cobra: "Your nails."
He takes up her hand...
Xev: "What about them?"
Cobra: "I am going to smooth up some off the rough edges, and when I am satisfied that they are as perfect as they can be, I will kill you."
She retreats. "I don't think, you will."
Cobra: "So? Definitely I am not, but I promise you, you will be a well manicured corpse."
He approaches her, she retreats to the wall, but not for long, and she screams her lizard-scream. He retreats.

Alhambra and Ritzeminowitz exanimate the corners of the Lexx, hear the scream and start running toward it, Alhambra gets a little pistol out of his manicuring-set on his hip-bag.

Back in the kitchen.
Cobra retreated: "What was that?"
Xev approaches him: "I am a little more than just a love slave."
Cobra: "Oh, yeah ..."
Xev: "Yeah. I am also part cluster lizard."
She touches his chest and pulls him onto the wall.
Cobra: "A what?"
Xev: "A hot tempered and very nasty animal."
She starts strangling him, and he finally recognizes her strength. Then she jumps high up and rolls down again, grabs him on his shirt. And puts him on the dinner-table.
Xev: "You almost got it right, baby. But it is me, that is going to do you, and once I've got my complete and personal satisfaction, then I am going to snap you in two."
And then she starts some licking things down his body.

Stan and Kai run around a corner, following Xev's screams and - get to meet the two pals of Cobra, weapons high. Stanley first. Stan stops dead, Kai turn over him.
Kai: "I suggest, you stay behind me, Stanley."
Stan: "Why?"
Kai: "As an Assassin of the Devine Order I am rather familiar with the sequence of events now likely to occur."
Kai takes a long, serious look towards Cobra's pals. And approaches them, Stan right behind his back, ducking.
Kai: "Where is Xev?"
Alhambra: "You mean the dirty little love slave?"
Kai: "Xev is a love slave and also the only woman onboard this vehicle."
Ritzeminowitz: "Well, she is about to have a problem with her oxygen supply."
They are both grinning brightly. Alhambra also takes a skeptical look on his fingernails.
Kai: "I will not permit that."
Ritzeminowitz: "Oh, is that right?"
Kai: "Yes, that is right."
Ritzeminowitz: "You are asking for it, pale face. And I am happy to give it to you."
They start firing on Kai big time, but Kai does not even switch, just looking curiously on the bullet holes appearing on his chest.
The two are irritated because of no effects, they blame their guns. Kai pulls his brace thing, aims and the thing works his way on an elegant curve: first through Alhambra’s stomach and then back through the heart of Ritzeminowitz. They fall down, dead.
Stan: "What happened to them?"
Kai: "They are dead." And starts moving toward Xev's location again.
Stan: "How?"
Kai shows his brace thing: "Devine assassins are very efficient killers."
Stan seams to be shocked, but also relieved.

Xev gets up, Cobra is lying down on the table, but still alive. 
Xev: "What was that sound?"
Cobra: "What sound?"
Cobra only needs this little second of distraction and pulls a gun from somewhere, Xev is not aware of its danger.
Xev: "A banging."
Cobra: "Nothing."
Xev: "You are lying. - What is that thing in your hand?"
Cobra: "It's a gun."
Xev: "What's a gun?"
Cobra: "You don't know?"
Xev: "No." But though she retreats.
Cobra aims at her chest. "A gun is the last thing you ever going to see, bye-bye."
She lifts her hand in protection, when Cobra dislocks his looooong gun. The key shows up on Xev's hand.
She takes a step backward, when Kai and Stan enter the room, when Cobra pulls the trigger ... the SHOT, and at the same time, Kai lets his brace thing fly, - into the path of the bullet, and the blade reflects the bullet, disturbing it's trajection (means, Kais reflexes are VERY fast ... ).
The key leaves Xev's hand, and the brace turns on the way backward into Cobra's chest, splitting his heart in his chest. And Stanley gets the key back on HIS hand.
Cobra slowly falls down, dead. Kai inspects his work to be certain and pulls back his brace thing in its chasse.
Xev: "Bye-bye, baby. - I see, I must have been on the edge of death."
Kai takes a closer look on her: "The very edge, and the key knew it."
Xev: "Thank you."
Kai: "You are welcome." He grins.
Xev: "Too bad though."
Stan: "Excuse me?"
Kai watches Xev approaching and hugging Stan.
Xev: "I was hoping to have a little fun with him first."
Stan: "I don't understand you, Xev, I don't understand you at all."
She pads him on his shoulder and leaves. But Stan is happy with the key again.
Stan: "Lexx?"
Lexx: "Yes, Captain?"
Stan: "Who is your captain?"
Lexx: "Stan, Stan, - and only ..."
Stan: "only Stan. Hahahahaha."

In the stomach. The tourists on the space shuttle.
Tourist fumbles on the control leavers: "Hey just like my Buick road master."
Religious woman finds the bomb, its display shows only 8 sec left.
Woman: "What is that?"
Leader: "It says: 'department of energy' on it."
Old Man: "They don't make that atomic bombs!?"
And that is the last, he can say, after that, the bomb explodes, and everyone near gets turned into nuclear ashes. The belly of Lexx lights up pretty much, even on the outside. And on the bridge, they all get shaken big time.
Stan: "What was that?"
Xev: "Yeah, what was that?"
Lexx: "I think, I must have eaten something hot."
790: "That was a 23.4 megaton nuclear explosion likely caused by a fusion of tritium-hypogyn, typically the most advanced weapon of a type 13 planets prior to their collapse."
Xev approaches the head lying on the floor where Kai left him.
Stan: "So."
Xev: "So?"
Stan enters the control blossom.
Stan: "Something to blow up that planet. Lexx can eat the chunks." Stan spits on his hand and is eager to do it!
Xev intervenes: "No." And takes Stan’s hand, not letting it tough the keyhole.
Stan: "No, what do you mean, no, Xev? It is a type 13 planet. They just tried to blow us up and kill us! And they are completely rude. I have seen just enough from this planet already. So let's blast it and get out of here."
Xev: "Just because some people are bad, doesn't mean the whole planet is bad."
Stan: "Okay, Xev. Okay. If you really, really insist, I agree to leave without blowing it up, but I will not agree to staying here any longer."
Xev: "Fine, we can leave, after I checked it out."
Stan: "Oh, no, Xev, why?"
Xev: "Because I am part cluster lizard, and cluster lizards are carnevous and that makes me have a curious nature. And - it might have some potential."
Stan: "Potential. - What potential?"
Xev: "A potential to satisfy a woman?"
Stan: "What do you have in mind?"
Xev: "What I have in mind is: Get in a moth, go down to the little blue planet and see what it is like for myself. If I like, what I see, I'll stay, - if I don't I'll leave with you. - Coming?"
Stan: "No."
Xev: "Will you at least wait for me, Captain?"
Stan: "I might."
Xev: "Will you come with me, Kai?"
Kai: "If you would like."
Xev: "I would like."
790: "I am coming, too."
Xev: "No, you are not."
790: "I am, I have to stand by my man."
Kai: "You will remain here, with Stanley."
790: "I would rather die a 1000 deaths."
Stan: "One would do."
Xev and Kai go to the moth, about 100 meters away from the bridge on a paddle, leading away from the main control center over a abyss. (The Lexx definitely got larger during the series seasons.)
Stan: "Yeah!" and waves his hand in disagreement.
The moth takes off. Stanley goes to the head on the floor.
Stan: "Robot head, I am gonna melt you down!"
790: "How?"
Stan: "I'll find a way!" And takes 790 away.
The moth leaves the Lexx and fires its rocket drive, towards the Earth.

Now inside the milky way: we see the asteroid again, from the beginning of the series, now surrounded by little flying objects.
