Previously on Alice
How would you like
to meet my family?
This is too fast.
Goodbye, Jack.
Honey, listen, just
because daddy left
doesn't mean they all Will.
Jack!
Jack took something
that didn't belong to him.
We need it back.
[Alice]: What is this place?
[Hatter]: Wonderland.
[Alice]: That's a story
in a kid's book.
[Hatter]: Does this look like
a kid's story to you?
Who are you?
They call me "hatter."
I know people
who like to help your kind.
She's wearing the Stone
of wonderland.
It controls
the looking glass.
[Hatter]: The looking glass
is the only way
to get you back home.
[Alice]: Then help me get Jack
out of the casino.
[Queen of hearts]:
She's running around wonderland
with my ring.
We'll find her.
Is mad march alive yet?
I've had to make some
technical adjustments.
[Queen of hearts]:
I need you to find someone--
a girl.
Run.
I am a knight--
White knight.
I thought all you guys
were wiped out years ago.
Maybe he can help us.
Hello, Alice.
She's gone
to the hearts casino.
But that's certain death.
Jack!
I was really curious
to see what sort of tart
my son was hanging around with
these days.
You're her son?
He's here.
[Alice]: Daddy!
[Queen of hearts]:
You're going to tell us
where you hid the ring.
Take her to the truth room.
Don't you want to know
where I've hidden the ring?
And now Alice continues.
[##]
[Alice gasps]
[Grunting]
[##]
Ah
She's back up.
If you kill me,
the queen
won't get her ring.
So tell us
where it is.
Not until you get me
out of here.
If you don't
tell us
we may as well
kill you.
And then we'll just
have to tell the queen
it was an accident.
It happens all the time!
So who is this girl, hmm?
Who's Alice?
Have another little sip
of "honesty," Jack.
Tell me everything
about her.
[Groggily]: Alice?
Yes?
Alice is innocent.
Oh, of course
she is.
So why did you
choose her, Jack?
I
Hmm?
I
Yes.
I mean, you went to her
for a reason, didn't you?
Come on.
I needed her.
To what?
What?
[Sighs, clears his throat]
What?
The queen wants you.
Now.
[Exhales, fuming]
[Sighs, irritated]
I almost had it
You idiot.
[Jack exhales wearily]
The board's
holding her up.
So it is.
What would happen
if it disappeared,
I wonder?
[Breath shortens]
[Gasps]: Stop!
"We're awfully sorry,
your majesty,
but the girl just
wouldn't cooperate."
"We tried everything--
shrunk her
down to size"
"tickled
her darkest fear."
Wait!
I'll tell you where it is.
You'd better be quick!
It has a mind
of its own.
I have to write it down.
[Panting]
It's complicated!
I need to draw a map!
A map?
It's the only way
you'll find it.
Ho-hum.
Very well. If you must.
[Whoosh]
[##]
[##]
[Door creaks]
Hi.
Who the hell are you?
We're the New act.
Robinson and duckworth.
He's Robinson,
I'm duckworth.
We're guardians
to the mesmeric portals
of the cosmos.
Huh?
Stage hypnotists.
[Tittering quietly]:
This is good fun.
[Chuckles nervously]:
He means the act is, uh
Good fun
When we do it.
[##]
You got clearance
for stage hypnotists?
[Whistles]
[Thud]
[Queen of hearts]:
You've had Jack
for three days now,
and got nothing
out of him.
The whole point
of having you marry
the rebellious toad
is so that I can
keep an eye on him.
If you can't handle him,
I'll marry him
to someone who can.
Your son has
a very strong heart,
and if I didn't know
any better,
I'd think he just fell
in love with this Alice.
No. He singled her out
for a reason.
He wouldn't have spent
so much time wooing her
unless she was
useful to him.
I'm certain of it.
Well, we're in,
but we don't
have much time.
We should split up
and search
intermediate floors.
Why?
Why?
Because we don't know
where she is.
I shall reach into the mist
to lift the heavy veil
that shrouds the oracle.
[Inhales deeply]
[Gurgling in trance state]:
Ahh
[Trancelike groaning]
Galadoon
[Sniffs intensely]
de booshe!
What are you doing?
[Snorts]
[Huffs intensely]:
Down here!
Take the second left
at the stairs
that lead up to the third floor,
then after the double doors,
take the third walkway
on the right,
over the fitness center
to reception "b,"
and ask Sheila! Ha.
Sheila?
Maybe it's "shakena?"
Come on!
[##]
[Gasps]: Whoa!
Hatter!
[Snaps]: Who's that?
[Barking]: Go away!
This is a private session!
Jump!
Get rid of him!
[##]
Oh! How did you
get in here?
I don't know.
Ask Charlie.
Believe it or not,
we're in your head!
What?
Don't ask.
[##]
[##]
[Grandly]:
Sanctus deo!
[Growls resentfully]
[##]
We have it!
We have it!
[Both cackling arrogantly]
[##]
Come on!
[##]
This way!
[Suits pounding madly]
Up! Why up?
Do we have a choice?
Alice of legend,
your presence in this world
is no accident.
You are here for a reason.
Please, Charlie,
it's just plain "Alice."
Justplainalice,
I Will stand at your side,
shoulder-to-shoulder,
knee-to--
Charlie--
wobbly knee--
now's not such a good time.
You guys
shouldn't have come.
You could
get yourselves killed.
Did you give
the ring up, Alice?
I have things under control.
You tried to cut a deal
with the queen, didn't you?
I was getting close.
"Getting close?"
Maybe I'm wrong,
but negotiations
didn't appear
to be going so well.
- Well, I need more time.
- For what?
Do you really think
the queen's just gonna
send you and your
boyfriend home?
- No--
- no, of course not!
because
he's her son.
The prince?
Jack heart?
Jack heart
is your boyfriend?
[Ding]
[##]
Watch, Alice
Ah.
[Smack]
[Gasps]: Ah!
[Groans]
[Sniffs]
Bow to the hand of diocles!
[Bonk]
What now?
We get on one of those.
Get on.
[Gasps in awe]
Articulated birds
of the empyrean!
Hah! What genius!
These things fly?
We don't have time
to think, Alice.
Just get on.
I am not getting on that.
You don't
have another choice!
You don't understand.
I'm not getting on that.
It's perfectly safe!
Safe-ish.
No, I have
a thing about flying!
[Guns start blasting]
Yeah? I've got a thing
about bullets.
Look, I'll do
the flying.
All you have to do
is hold on.
Look at me.
I wouldn't let you do it
if I didn't think
you'd be okay.
Okay.
[Intrigued]:
How do you get it to fly?
Hmm.
[##]
[Shrieking]: Ahh!
[Hatter]:
Like that, I suppose.
That's fast!
Oh, yeah. Hold on.
[Gasps]
[Opens fire]
[Shots blasting]
[Engines whizzing]
A knight?
[Flamingo whizzing]
Alice?
I suppose it's his lofty
airs and graces, huh?
He doesn't have
"airs and graces."
Really?
Well, what then?
Just shut up and drive!
[Crying out]:
We are angels!
The wind and clouds
under our command!
Oh, heavenly Joy!
Whah!
[Loud shot cracks]
[##]
[Hatter]: Aces!
[Gasps]:
I'm going dow-ow-ow-own!
[Alice]: No!
Charlie!
Hoo-wha-hoo-hoo-hoo!
[Sploosh]
[Alice gasps]
Alice, hold on!
[Blasting]
[Both screaming]
[Splashing]
[##]
Jack!
Jack? Jack! Jack!
Is he poisoned?
[Guard grunts]
Darling
I'm afraid I'm going to
have to tie you up.
I have
Alice's confession!
Confession?
The whereabouts
of the ring.
Hurry! Hurry!
My reading glasses.
My reading gl--
[bellows]:
My reading glasses!
Oh--
I'll get them.
You read it, Winston.
Hurry up.
Ahem.
"Locker 208,
central station,
"4th avenue,
across the road
from plush platforms & pumps."
[Aghast]: What?
[Much louder]:
"Locker 208,
central station--"
she left it in her world!
Why would she
do that?
Well, now we'll never
get it back,
and the looking glass
won't work without it.
Bring her here immediately!
What have you done?
She sort of escaped
Uh a crack team
Of commandos,
overwhelmed
our valiant suits,
and then
Fled from the
Roof
On flamingos.
Find her.
Bring her back
if she's alive,
and, in the meantime,
summon Jack
so I can ask him
about this "central station."
Uh
What now?
Number 10, you explain.
No, but
Your majesty
is so good
at explaining things.
Number 10!
Uh, well, you s-see,
Jack appears
To have
Disappeared.
How?
No!
Don't tell me.
I don't want to know.
Pygmy commandos,
hobgoblins, whatever.
Ma'am--
[drops glasses]
[Stomps glasses]
[Indignantly]: Well!
Now look what you've done!
You clumsy club!
Off with his head!
No, no, no, no.
No!
[Weeping]
Bring him back.
Tomorrow, she'll have
forgotten she killed him.
And summon mad march.
If Alice and Jack are alive,
he'll find them.
Charlie!
If he's made it,
there should
be some tracks.
Charlie!
We're sitting ducks
on this Beach.
Where's the ring?
Safe.
Where?
You still don't trust me
after I just--
I risked my neck
getting you out of there!
Why did you
risk your neck?
Unbelievable.
Why are you being
so ungrateful?
I don't blame you.
Your people need you,
and the ring may make
all the difference.
Is that why
you think I did this?
So I could get my hands
on the ring?
Look, I respect that.
It just shows you're a man
of integrity after all,
but first I need to use it
to get my father out.
Your father?
He's here.
I don't understand.
Jack slipped me his watch.
"R.h."
"Robert Hamilton."
I remember this watch.
It's his for sure.
Look, it's stuck
on the exact date and time
that he disappeared.
March 23rd.
He's in the casino somewhere.
He's lying.
Jack took a big risk
passing this to me.
And you believe him?
Why wouldn't I?
Because he's lied to you
about everything.
He had his reasons.
I'm stunned.
Why are you
even defending him?
Because he's trying
to help me.
Really? Well, let's
just think about that.
He took the ring
from his mother.
He gave it to you.
Why? It made you
a target, Alice!
Well, he wasn't expecting me
to follow him,
but I screwed up,
bringing the ring here.
And he blames you
for that?
No!
Not exactly.
Why is he even
going around,
pretending to be
someone else, anyway?
Well, he's hiding
from them.
- Why?
- I don't know!
He's engaged.
To a duchess.
So he's two-timin' you?
I don't think
it's like that.
And now, all of a sudden,
he tells you
that your father
has been in the casino
all this time.
Does that not seem
a little bit fishy?
What do you mean?
It's not a coincidence!
[Distant voice warbling]
You hear that?
I don't believe it.
[Charlie's warbling singing
carrying over]
[Singing]
Charlie!
[Stops singing]
Ah! Hah! Thank vilnius!
Ah! I was just about
to go back in the water
and look for you
again.
[Chuckles with relief]
All right.
Yeah. Okay
Oh
How did you get ashore
with all that armor on?
I'm a knight!
We should
get off this Beach
before
we get spotted.
No.
No?
Listen, guys, I'm really
grateful for what you did
Getting me
out of the casino,
but I have to go back.
[Grumbles]: Oh.
Why are you still
hooked on Jack?
I told you,
he was trying to help me.
Really? Because it sounds to me
like he was using you.
And you're not?
Don't you care
what's happening here?
All the people's lives
who are getting ripped apart
by the queen?
Of course I do.
I'm one of them.
Then give the resistance
a chance.
I met those guys already.
One arm of
the organization, that was.
If we get to the top man,
he'll help us.
You know him?
Yes!
No, not exactly.
Nobody knows his true identity,
but he goes by a code name--
"caterpillar."
Give me a few hours.
I'll slip
back into the city
and I'll make contact.
You can
You can stay with Charlie
in the fortress.
You'll be safe there.
If I'm not back
by nightfall,
do it your way.
[## with motor boat sound behind]
[##]
[Shrieks and gasps]
Ahh! Not the face!
Not the--
hatter!
What do you want?
Just keep your voice
down, dormie.
I need you
to get a message to caterpillar.
[Whimpers]
We still have
what they want.
We're ready to make a deal.
[Whimpers]
[##]
[Humming jovially]
[Branch snaps]
[Continues humming]
[##]
How old were you
when your father disappeared?
Huh.
Must have been
quite a shock.
You know how kids are.
They blame themselves
for stuff like that.
[##]
You okay?
[Quietly]:
I was 10 once.
I was 10
when the armies came
one of three squires
to the real White knight.
My job was to carry
the great Lance
but, when it mattered,
when I
Was needed most
I lost my nerve
and
I ran.
[##]
I hid for three days
[Drops twigs]
and when I came out
everyone was dead
Even the magnificent red King,
up there on his throne.
At first, I wished
I'd died with them,
but after a while, a
A deeper feeling took over.
I
I wanted a second chance.
I
I wanted to avenge them.
So I
Stole the White knight's
armor
His name
His courage
[Takes a shaky breath]:
and
I waited
for the right time.
When you showed up,
I knew the right time
had finally arrived.
[##]
Do your feet
feel weird?
My sole
really hurts.
[Beakers and vats bubbling]
What is your name?
Stan.
No, Sam.
Wait. Stuart?
I'm pretty sure
it's "Stuart."
What is your name?
What have you
done to him?
[Spritzes the mail man]
[Plonks diffuser down]
Take these oysters
back to the gaming rooms.
[Humming]
Charlie!
You're supposed to be
looking after Alice!
I-I know
what you're thinking,
but I wasn't
really asleep.
I had simply let
my soul lift out
of its mortal Shell
to stand sentry
on a higher plane.
Where's Alice?
[##]
It's good news.
The resistance
wants to help.
[Huffing and wheezing]
They're sending
a special agent,
who'll take us
to see caterpillar.
[Still panting]
Whew.
It's quite a steep Hill.
You okay?
I was beginning to think
you weren't coming back.
You still don't trust me?
How soon till he gets here?
Those guys
can move pretty fast
when they need to.
[##]
[Quietly]: You're going to
join them, aren't you?
Fight alongside them?
I have to try.
As dodo said,
I've lived my life
playing both sides of the court.
It's the only way
I could stay alive.
I made the hearts think
that I was working for them,
while I Fed their enemies.
Those days are over.
[Sighs resolutely]
[Cawing]
[Cawing emphatically]
[Strings snap]
Ooh
[Cawing]
[Huffing and blustering]
That's the West wall.
Ah!
Intruders!
What's the matter?
What Will I do
if I get stuck here?
Then I'll make sure
you're okay.
I think your luck
is finally changing.
That's right,
it is.
Hello, Alice.
I'm not interrupting
anything, am I?
[##]
I know
what you're thinking.
How could anyone
sneak up on me,
of all people,
and in my own manor, too?
You think you can
take me on with that?
I'm not an old man.
[Charlie]: Oi!
Look, nobody is fighting
unless it is me,
and I am a Black belt,
remember?
Who's your friend?
Just a friend.
Yes, you two
look pretty friendly.
You jealous, Jack?
- A little.
- Did I hear that right?
The guy who's engaged
to a duchess
is worried about me?
You know
that was just an act.
- No, I don't.
- I've brought you a horse.
Let's get out of here.
She's not going
anywhere with you.
You know
she can't stay here.
Look,
stop it, both of you.
[Whispers]: I need to know
about my dad.
Is he here?
Yes. He's alive
and well,
and if you let me,
I'll take you to him.
Really?
But we'd better
get going.
We don't have much time.
Where is he?
We're moving him
into the city,
and if we hurry,
you can see him
by nightfall.
What do you mean,
"moving him?"
I have people
helping me.
What "people?"
Do you want to
see him or not?
Yes, of course.
Right.
Wow. Um okay.
Don't tell me
you trust this guy?
He knows where my dad is.
He'll say anything
to get his hands on the ring!
No, he hasn't
asked for the ring.
He doesn't want the ring.
Do you, Jack?
Yes, I do.
You do?
It's just all an act!
We need the ring
to get you home.
The looking glass
won't work without it.
[Scoffs, fuming]
Yes, of course.
Don't be fooled
by this, Alice.
He's working
for his mother.
Blood and water,
you remember?
Then why am I alone?
Why aren't there 500 suits
at my back?
And how did I find you here
in the middle of the forest?
You think
I just followed my nose?
How did you find us?
You sent for me.
Come again?
I'm the agent
who's supposed to
escort you to caterpillar.
You know
caterpillar?
Very well.
Caterpillar recruited me
into the resistance.
That's why I stole the ring
and escaped to your world.
It was supposed
to trigger a coup.
Unfortunately--
well you saw what happened.
But if you give us back
the ring,
we can give it another try.
You want to overthrow
your mother?
I've seen what she's done
in close-up,
and I know,
perhaps better than anyone,
if I don't stop her,
she'll destroy wonderland.
So who are you
going to trust
to get you
and your father back home?
A resistance insider
and future King
who's already scheduled
your return trip
through the looking glass,
who cares for you
more than anyone else
in the world
or this man?
[##]
Where's the ring, Alice?
It's where it belongs.
Well, well!
Hah! Under my very nose!
I wish you all the luck
in the world, Alice.
You're coming
with us, hatter.
I don't think I figure
in the future King's plans.
He's coming with us.
Caterpillar was very clear.
The resistance Will
only help you on their terms.
You must come alone.
But hatter's stood by me.
It's for
your own safety,
and for your father's.
Hey.
I wouldn't want to go
with this guy anyway.
What Will you do?
Me?
You kiddin'?
[Chuckles]
I'll be fine.
Believe me
You're better off
with this guy.
[Quietly]: Go.
[##]
I'm going after her.
No.
I am sworn
to protect her!
Your work here is done,
brave knight
But you should
be proud.
You've done
one hell of a job
But she's in
safe hands now.
[##]
So who's the duchess?
My mother's creature.
An arrangement.
I have no feelings for her,
nor she for me.
My heart belongs to you, Alice,
completely.
You believe that,
don't you?
[River rushing past]
[##]
[Singing to self]
- Charlie!
- Ah!
Pheaton's ghost!
You nearly scared me
half to death.
You're following them.
So are you!
Don't you shake
your head at me!
When I gave you gwenevere,
you said you were going to
hide out in the hills.
Well, these are not
"the hills!"
Come on, then. Hyah!
This way.
What is this place?
The hospital of dreams.
Just stay close by me.
Keep your mark
covered.
If the inmates realize
what you are,
I won't be able
to help you.
[##]
[Receptionist hangs up phone]
He's on the third floor.
[##]
Ah.
You have the ring?
Yes.
No, no, no, no. No.
Should the moment arise,
I must be able to swear
under oath
that I have never
laid eyes on it.
Ask the girl to come closer?
Alice, come closer.
[##]
Oh you're not
as tall as I imagined.
Ask her if she's scared.
Alice, are you--
I heard him.
You can ask me yourself,
you know.
I'm right here.
When did you
last see your father?
When I was 10.
A long time ago.
Where is he?
[##]
[Exhales deeply]
Your father is
a very difficult man to reach.
We've been tracking him
for a long time,
but never got close enough
to pop the question,
never once.
And do you know what it is
we want to ask him?
No.
You're not even ready
to hazard a little guess?
What are you
talking about?
Horizons, my dear.
I'm talking about
bright New horizons.
And that's where
you come in.
Where I come in?
Yes.
When you first met Jack,
did you think
it was a happy accident?
The fickle finger of fate?
[##]
Wasn't it?
You see, the effects
of your powerful emotions
on our frail senses
are devastating.
Patient 243 couldn't get
the precious High
of "flying High"
out of her system,
so we're bringing her
back down to earth
in a controlled environment.
Patient 671
drank too much
"self-importance,"
so we're shrinking
his considerable ego,
little by little,
back to its original size.
We're all vulnerable.
Mix the wrong feelings
together--
the right kind of bad
with the wrong kind of good,
and you'll wind up
with a total breakdown.
The oysters, your people,
are contaminating our world.
They must go back,
dead or alive,
before it's too late.
What does my dad
have to do with that?
He's the only one
who can release them.
Why?
Our undercover operatives
successfully smuggled him here
earlier today.
It was
the most dangerous operation
we've ever mounted.
They are brave men.
But
I must warn you,
he is not the same person
you knew as a child.
What do you mean?
He's
How can I put it?
Stuck.
We were hoping
that you can help
clear away his cobwebs.
I don't understand.
I came to your world
to find you, Alice,
because
we need your help.
Only you
can wake him, Alice.
So everything
that we had
[Exhales in disbelief]
was about my dad?
It wasn't
an act, Alice.
I really do love you,
but you have to understand,
your father holds
the key to our future.
I don't believe this.
So you've been lying to me
this entire time?
Would you have believed him
if he'd told you the truth?
I don't know! Maybe!
You're right, I should've
been more honest,
but I can't
turn back the clock.
Please, Alice,
Will you help us?
Alice, our world
depends on it.
[##]
[Thunderous rumbling]
[##]
Daddy.
[Alice gasps]
Who's this?
It's me, daddy.
Another one of your tricks,
Jack heart?
Don't you know
your own daughter?
[Bemused chuckle]: "Daughter?"
You left
when I was a kid.
The White rabbit
kidnapped you
many years ago,
and the doctors
adjusted you
to work
in the laboratory.
We've missed you so much.
Mom tries not to
show it, but--
mom?
Carol
Your wife.
You really think this charade
is going to turn me
against the queen?
Don't you remember
anything?
I remember my work
at the institute--
bio-reductive enzymes,
chemically-induced synesthsesia,
shadow theory.
What about your family?
Our little yellow house?
I lived
I lived
alone
in an apartment.
Ray?
You remember him?
Your friend
with the boat?
What is the point
of all this?
Grapefruit and wheat germ
that's what you liked
for breakfast.
And on sundays, sometimes,
we would go to that brunch place
in waverley,
and you would throw chickpeas
at the ducks.
Your mother
Will be very upset
when she hears about this,
Jack.
[Starts to sob softly]
You don't even know
who I am.
[Crying]
Don't cry, jelly-Bean.
"Jelly-Bean?"
Is that your
special name for Alice?
[Sniffles]
That's what
you used to call me
And when
our cat, dinah, died,
you held me in your arms
for a whole hour,
remember?
Rocking me?
[##]
Remember this?
[##]
What is it?
[Sniffs]
It's your watch.
You always wore it.
I've never worn a watch.
We don't need them here.
It's kind of broken,
but it never really
kept good time anyway,
and you didn't seem
to mind.
[##]
There.
[##]
Hold it right there!
Stop right there!
[##]
Freeze!
[Mad march]:
I'm a little disappointed.
I expected
a bit more of a struggle.
Where's hatter?
I don't know.
We picked up your trail
outside the city.
You weren't that
difficult to track.
Are you all right?
They kidnapped me,
tried to turn me
against the queen
with some hogwash
about being
this girl's father.
[Chuckles dryly]
You're gonna break
your mother's heart.
Well, well, well!
The mysterious caterpillar
[Chuckles]
apprehended at last.
You realize this brings an end
to the resistance
Finally?
And forever?
[Gulps]
[***, whoosh]
[##]
Black day.
Okay.
Okay, I know there're
a lot of suits out there,
but if we let them
get to the casino,
there's gonna be
a whole lot more.
We have to take 'em now.
Mm.
Are you serious?
Yes.
We've got surprise
on our side,
and we've got horses.
See the bottleneck
over there?
Uh
If I go in swinging
and keep the suits busy
for a a few seconds,
that might give you
just enough time
to get in there,
grab Alice,
and gallop away.
Bottleneck? Swinging?
I'm gonna need a sword.
N-no, I-- I can't
Okay show me
what knights are made of.
Y-y-yes
[Chuckles uneasily]
This is it. You ready?
One
Two
Now!
[Alice]: Hatter!
[Gasps]
[Crying out]: Charlie!
[##]
What the--
no!
[Cries out]
Get off him!
Hatter!
What a nice surprise.
[Grunts]
[##]
[Hooves clopping]
[##]
[Giggles in amusement]
[Others chuckle]
[Laughs]
[Gushing sigh]: Ahh
[##]
Ahh
[Fawningly]: The mouse
that stole the cheese.
What?
the cat
that's got a canary
[King chortles
exorbitantly]
Oh you look
radiant, my peach,
and dare I say,
younger too?
I'm going to wear it
for at least an hour
before you clever suits
whisk it away
to reopen
the glorious looking glass
and kickstart
that wonderful economy of ours.
[Sternly]: Then I want it back
right away, you hear?
Loud and clear, ma'am.
Loud and crystal clear.
[##]
What is she doing
in that thing?
She's a contaminant.
A what?
Jack discovered that
she's carpenter's daughter,
went to fetch her
so that she could
turn him against you--
you know,
wake him up?
So that's why
he wanted the awful creature.
Evil boy.
[Shouts]: Dad!
[Louder]: Dad!
[##]
What did she say?
[King]: "Mad."
I think
she said she's mad.
Quite right.
But if I'm to consider
her evidence,
I must hear her clearly.
Carpenter would
hear her as well.
It's too risky.
Good heavens, Winston,
you're paranoid!
Recognize that girl
over there?
Dearest, please!
Oh, she's an actress
Jack brought here
with some story
about being my daughter.
Do you have a daughter?
[Hesitates]: Of course not,
but the resistance
Will try anything.
Go over there
and take a good look at her.
Darling, please,
I don't think it's wi--
shut up, Winston.
I'm the one that wears the crown
around here.
[No sound escapes]
Why did Jack pick her,
do you think?
Because
she is his daughter!
Quiet, ungrateful child!
Well?
Look, I have no idea.
Perhaps because
she's a very good actress.
I'm going to have her
executed, you know.
So?
[Queen]: Doesn't that
bother you,
even a little?
[##]
Why should it?
[Queen]: Excellent.
You may go.
[##]
[Disdainfully]:
My own son.
Blackest
of all Black sheep.
I carried you
for nine painful months,
suffered eight hours
of agonizing labor,
suckled you day and night,
your sharp little teeth
gnawing at my breast,
and, now, here you are,
a grown man,
with nothing but hatred
and deceit in your heart.
[King, disgusted]:
It's unnatural.
Have you nothing to say
before I pass sentence?
Send Alice home.
She doesn't deserve this.
Carpenter may
seem well-adjusted now,
but if he sees
his daughter executed,
he'll wake up for sure.
Nonsense.
She can't hurt you
if she's back in her world.
Besides,
you've crushed the resistance,
their leader is dead,
and the ring
is back on your finger.
What more do you want?
There is some logic
to what he says.
Don't let him
manipulate you, Winston.
Go ahead, then.
Risk it.
A word in your ear?
Leniency
is not an option.
Heavens, no.
We're going to get rid
of her, naturally.
The question is how?
I've always liked
a good drowning.
Yes, but, again,
that may be
the slap in the face
that wakes carpenter up.
It's too risky.
You're not falling
for that, are you?
Yes.
No. I mean, no, no
but we Will
have to tread warily.
This denial
is a tricky business.
[Sighs concedingly]
What do you suggest?
Well
There's banishment?
[Intrigued]: Banishment?
Mm. You know,
some people even say
it's worse than execution.
Banishment
Hmm
I have decided
that the harsher sentence
of banishment
is more appropriate.
Escort her
to the looking glass
and have her dispatched
as quickly as possible.
It is with a heavy heart
and a clear conscience
that I,
Mary Elizabeth constance
de villiers heart,
queen of wonderland,
do sentence you,
Jack Frederick heart,
to be held in the eye room
overnight,
so that all of wonderland
may see you
for who you really are,
and, tomorrow morning
You shall be taken
to the Grand hall
to face
the executioner's axe.
[##]
They couldn't possibly
have got away
noeh
There were too many of them!
yes
it is suicide
I know
what you're thinking.
Of all the knights to survive,
it had to be me
The gutless one.
[Whimpers]:
I'm not even a knight.
I'm a charlatan
An imposter
[Growing more emotional]:
A big fat fraud!
While just-plain-Alice
and her harbinger
are tortured to death
in the casino,
you sit around here,
eating borogove cutlets
and dreaming of
the good old days.
Well, it's about time
you stopped fantasizing
and did something for real,
something useful,
something brave
[##]
[Quietly, in realization]:
Something like
[More quietly]: Yes.
[##]
[##]
[Giggling giddily]
[Electricity zapping]
[Mirthful chuckling]
[Zapping]
[Hatter screaming]
[Mad march chuckles]
[##]
Leave us.
- But--
- I said, leave!
[Zapping]
[Cries out]
[##]
When is a raven
like a writing desk?
[Panting]
The clockwork's
not ticking properly.
Maybe crumbs
in the butter?
Tell me where
the great library is.
I didn't think you'd crack.
[##]
In that case,
there's no need
to keep you alive.
[##]
Twinkle, twinkle,
little bat,
how I wonder
what you're at.
Goodbye, hatter.
[March grunting]
[##]
[Shattering]
[##]
This one's got to go back
right away.
She'll have to wait.
A raiding party's
returning with fresh oysters.
[##]
[Alice]: No no.
[##]
No!
The queen
is getting impatient.
She wants the ring.
[Technician]:
We'll need it back.
The looking glass
Will only work
for a short time without it.
[##]
[Quiet rage]: No.
Hyah!
[##]
[Guard thuds]
[Crack, thud]
[Grunts]
After her!
[##]
[##]
[Thud]
- No--
- whoa!
[##]
[Panting]
Okay okay.
[##]
Okay, come on, Alice.
You can do this.
[Suits start firing]
[Bullets whizzing]
Okay.
[Gasps, panting]
[Flamingo whirs to life]
Take the ring.
I'll deal with her.
[##]
[Gasps]
[Shot blasts]
[##]
[Shouting at self]
Alice! Pull this thing up!
[##]
[##]
Whoo!
[King, enticingly]:
New emotions
Distilled from
our most recent harvest.
What's this one?
Oh, that--?
That is my favorite!
"Pure innocence,"
taken from the first
flush of youth.
That's more like it.
This is
our secret weapon.
That Will do more
to keep the rabble
in check
than anything else.
At last. My ring!
This is the only tonic
I need.
[##]
Majesty
We're under attack.
Attack? From whom?
Outside.
[##]
There must be
a thousand of them!
Who are they?
Knights, majesty.
The knights.
Impossible.
[##]
Come out, you cowards!
Come and face
the wrath of asclepius!
It's as if they've risen
from the dead.
Hit them
with everything we've got!
[##]
[##]
Hold your positions, men!
Don't fire
until you see the whites
of their beaks.
[##]
[Explosions roaring]
Wha! Whoo!
[##]
[Exploding]
[Announcement]: All suits
report immediately
to section commanders.
[##]
[Alice, awed]: Wow.
Where'd you get the army,
Charlie?
[##]
There!
[##]
Another wave!
[##]
[Bellowing]
[##]
Hold the perimeter.
Make sure we're ready for them
when they attack.
[##]
[##]
Easy.
Easy, Jack.
- I'm here to help.
- Duchess?
We have to hurry.
I bribed the guards
and the blackout
Will only last a few seconds.
Put this on.
Quickly.
[##]
Stop.
Why are you doing this?
Isn't it obvious?
I care about you, Jack.
I always have.
Come on.
You're working for my mother!
I did what I had to do
to survive.
[Ace]: This way!
[Footsteps racing in]
[##]
Out of the way!
[Ethereal gaming room music
plays]
[##]
Come on!
Where do you think
you're going?
Get down.
[Man whistles]
[Smack]
Hatter, you're okay!
Yeah.
[##]
Oh, my god.
Oh, it's a few cuts
and bruises. I'm fine.
I thought you were dead.
Oh, that feels good.
We should save that
until we're safe.
I'm sorry
I didn't trust you.
You trust me now?
Completely.
Good.
Follow me.
I'm getting us out of here.
No!
No?
I have an idea.
Do you see
any more suits in here?
I don't
think so, no.
Let's seal the other exit.
Where the hell's security?
Everyone's been called
to defend the perimeter.
[##]
Find something
to brace the doors.
Uh okay.
Something
caterpillar said
Mix the wrong
feelings together,
and you wind up
with a complete breakdown.
[Hatter grunts]
And Charlie,
Charlie said the queen
only wanted to feel the good,
not the bad, remember?
So?
We're gonna stir up
some emotions.
What should we do?
[##]
[Both start firing guns]
Oi!
[Silence falls]
[Ferociously]:
Deal another hand,
spin another roulette wheel,
and it Will be your last!
Where the hell's
security?
Defending
the outer wall.
Sir?
We have a problem.
[##]
Hey!
Everyone!
Wake up!
This isn't a dream!
This is really happening!
Look at me!
Think!
Where are your families?
Your kids?
Your husbands
and your wives,
and your mothers
and your fathers?
[Groggily]:
Where did I leave my keys?
[Alice]:
You were taken from them
and brought here.
Try to think!
Your name?
What's your name?
Taylor.
No, that's my son.
[Realizing]: My son.
Look down
at your feet!
Try to walk away
from the tables.
[Grunting intensely]
I'm stuck! Ooh!
I can't move my feet!
We're getting
some very negative emotions
coming through.
I don't believe it.
It's that girl again.
[Alice, echoes ethereally]:
Wake up!
Wake up!
Wake up, daddy!
You're late! Wake up!
[##]
Alice.
[##]
Oh, dear god
What have I done?
[##]
Keep your head, man.
Keep your head!
[Explosions]
[##]
Three, two one!
Ahh!
[Cackles]
Take that! you evil
[Charlie cries out
over explosion]
[##]
[## with footsteps echoing]
[Walrus barks]: Robert!
Come back.
[##]
[Grunts]
[##]
[Gun fires]
[Deep gasp]
[Rasping groan]
[##]
Look, they're trying to
break down the doors.
You know why?
Because they don't
want you to wake up!
[##]
[Guns blasting]
Confusion fear
Panic
This isn't good.
[Bellows]: Stop!
[Gunfight ceases]
You're frightening
the oysters.
I'll deal with this.
What do you want?
Put the gun down.
You stay right there.
[Softly]: It's me, Alice.
It's your father.
[Breath shaking]
[Voice breaks]:
You don't remember me.
You don't
remember anything.
I do.
I-- thanks to you
I remember everything.
I don't believe you.
This is just
another trick.
[Loudly]:
You see this guy?
He's the one
who brought you here!
He hooked you up!
And when he's done with you,
when he's done with you,
he'll get rid of you.
Isn't that right?
[Rages]: Daddy,
isn't that right?
[##]
[Groaning]
[##]
It was a sunday
And we'd just come back
from the movies
and you were wearing
your yellow dress,
and those
[Chuckles warmly]
those Black shoes
that always hurt your feet.
And
Carol
Met us in the driveway
and told us
dinah had
been hit by a car,
and you ran into the yard
and hid,
and I came
and found you
And held you for hours
while you wept.
I should have known you
the moment I saw you.
I've been a fool, Alice.
I've missed so much,
wasted so much time.
Please, forgive me.
[Sobbing]
[Robert sobs]:
I'm so sorry.
No!
[Groaning]
[##]
[Gun firing]
[Vats bubbling intensely]
[Male tech]: More
bad emotions getting through.
Okay, I'm cutting
them loose.
[Snap]
[10 of clubs]: Stop!
Wait! Stop!
[Alice panicking]
I'll go find help.
Please, stay. Please?
[Laboured breathing]
Oh, god.
I'm sorry, daddy.
I'm--
daddy, it's my fault. I--
you you you did good.
I'm proud of you.
[Thick, wet cough]
I kind of messed things up,
though, didn't I?
[Sobs softly]
We'll make it right.
I'm sorry jelly-Bean.
You're on your own.
[Crying]: No!
Dad!
Alice.
We've got to
get out of here. Please!
I'm sorry.
Come on, Winston.
It's time to evacuate!
You go ahead.
Don't be ridiculous.
You'll die if you stay here!
Don't you see?
I did all this for you.
There never was
anyone else.
I would have
conquered the world
for one smile.
Don't be so sentimental.
Have I ever
said no to you?
Stop this.
Come along now.
No.
[Doors thud]
[##]
[Charlie, struggling]:
Come on Charlie.
One
Last
Sh-shot.
[Grunts]
Ah
Galadoon
De booshe!
[Thwack]
[Rumbling and crashing]
[Quiet gasp]
[##]
Bull's-eye!
I don't suppose I could
get that hug now, huh?
There! She's there! Get her!
Touch the Lady,
and I'll shuffle your deck!
Don't just stand there,
idiots!
Arrest her!
Take a good look
at your queen first,
make sure she's really
Worth fighting for.
[##]
How dare you
look at me?
She's the one
you should be looking at!
I am not the problem.
You are.
Off with her head!
And it looks like everyone
is waking up to that.
Don't listen to her!
She's just
an insolent girl!
No one is frightened of you
anymore.
You're just one of us now.
This is my Kingdom,
and I am still queen!
Look around.
No one is listening.
Your power is gone.
Jack, thank heavens
you're here.
Get everyone
to fall in line.
Me?
Didn't you sentence me
to death?
Oh, don't be so sensitive.
I was just doing my job.
Come on now
and rally the troops.
No, mother.
It's over.
[##]
The ring.
Are you mad?
I'd sooner have you
cut off my finger.
That can be arranged.
Do you have a knife?
Thank you.
Make sure
it's a clean cut.
We don't want any blood
on the ring.
Mm-hmm.
[Fuming sigh]
[##]
[Cheering erupts]
Who's this?
My sister, Cassie.
I bet you're glad
you're goin' home?
[Girl]: Yup!
This place is freaky.
Alice!
Oh!
I'm so glad you came.
[Alice exhales in relief]
You really
showed 'em, Charlie.
Thanks to you, Alice.
I shall miss you
Alice of legend.
Thank you, Charlie.
Your majesty.
Alice.
I tried to come
and say goodbye, but
I guess you have
a lot on your plate,
now that you're King.
I owe you my life,
my Kingdom, everything.
I tried to give this
to you once before,
but you didn't know
what it meant.
This time,
I ask you to wear it
As my queen.
Will you be my queen,
Alice?
No, Jack.
I've changed.
I'm not the same girl
you knew.
I want something else.
[Jack chuckles sadly]
Goodbye, Jack.
[##]
Would you at least
do me the honor
of restarting
the looking glass?
Wow. [Exhales]
Okay.
What do I do?
Here.
Place it
in there.
[Excited murmuring]
Hatter!
[Feigns surprise]:
Alice? Hey
Excuse me. Sorry.
I was, um
I was afraid
I might've missed ya.
Yeah, well
You cut it a little close.
Yeah, I was, um
I guess I was trying
not to think about it.
Anyways, I
Wanted to say
goodbye.
[##]
Goodbye?
And
If you, you know
Ever fancy coming back
You want me to stay?
Hell, no!
No, you
I think
you should go home.
[Takes a deep breath]
Yeah.
Yeah, I've had enough
of wonderland
for a lifetime.
Yes.
I am sure you have,
right?
[Awkward chuckle]
Still, we had
Had a laugh.
You know?
Had some good times.
Obviously,
among all the
Bad times.
Yeah.
Yeah, we did.
[Sighs]
Oh, um
Yeah.
Right.
You don't have to--
brilliant.
Thank you.
That's good.
So, we should--
okay. Yeah.
[Hatter clears his throat]
[Sighs]: Yeah.
[Blurts]: You know,
you could always
visit my world.
You might like it.
Yeah! [Chuckles]
We could
We could do pizza.
And lots of other things.
Alice.
Please.
Really? I was just--
[##]
Just force yourself
to breathe.
[Alice gasps]
[##]
[Man]: She's over here!
[##]
Alice?
[##]
Hey!
He's gone.
Who's gone?
[Starts to sob]
Dad.
Oh, sweetie.
[Sobbing]
Oh it's all right,
sweetie, I'm here.
[Sniffling]
You gave me such a fright.
How long was I there?
Almost an hour.
An hour?
You were lucky.
A construction worker
saw you run into the building.
[##]
[Door shuts, answering machine chirping]
What's this about?
I don't need
to look for dad anymore.
It's time to move on.
[Map rustles]
[Door buzzes]
Oh! I almost forgot.
The construction worker
who, uh, found you,
he wanted to stop by
to see how you were.
Very sweet.
[##]
Alice?
Come meet David!
Hatter!
[Gasping deeply]: Oh!
[Hatter sighs]
Finally.
[Sighs more deeply]
You have no idea
how happy I am to see you.
[Relieved sigh]
I missed you.
[##]
