Zoey and Lazenby manages to wrestle back control of the Moth and quickly heads for the water to try and rescue the two doomed guys. Stan, Prince and Kai hit the water at great speed. Kai sinks like a brick and Stan surfaces after a few moments.
Stanley: I made it! I can't believe I made it.
That's when Stan looks around to see if he could see Kai and calls out for him.
Stanley: Kai, Kai? Can you hear me?
He calls out, but gets no answer. But Kai is sinking. Prince speaks out.
Prince: No, he can't. He sank the moment he hit the water.
Stanley: That's just great. I'm stuck here with you.
Prince: You make it sound like it's a bad thing.
Stanley: You just had to grab the moth and knock everyone out of it. You just couldn't resist the temptation. Boy, you're an idiot.
Prince: Whining about it is not gonna get us out of our situation faster.
Prince looked up and could see his balloons flying away and back towards fire. Prince starts shouting and waving for a balloon to come pick him up, but is left ignored.
Prince: Come back here or you will suffer!
Stan makes a comment.
Stanley: Maybe they're tired of your crap, so they're leaving you behind. Sucks to be you.
Prince: Sucks to be you, cause if I die, I can wake up again and you can't.
Stanley: I really hate you.
Zoey and Lazenby continue to look for them on the surface, but without knowing where they are, they are as lost as them. To make things worse, Stan is trying to keep himself afloat and happens to spot the little moth in the distance and shouts over and over.
Stanley: Over here!
Stan shouts over and over, but Zoey doesn't hear him and flies off in the wrong direction. It's looking bad for Stanley, cause he has no idea on how long he can stay afloat and alone with Prince. But, a balloon with Xev on board, lets a rope down and Stan and Prince climb on board.
Stanley: Thanks, Xev.
Xev: It was nothing, really.
Xev walks over to to comfort the soak and wet Prince.
Xev: Are you crazy? You could have died.
Prince: I would have come back and you know that.
Xev: You're lucky I was still around.
Stanley: But Kai isn't lucky. He said he didn't float, so you know what that means.
Prince: Now, that Kai isn't here to protect you, nothing will stop me from getting the key from you.
Stan knows that he lost the key, but is doubting to tell Prince. His life may depend on it. Prince looks over to Xev.
Prince: Xev, please take us back to Fire. Negotiating skills have just improved.
Xev takes the gondola over to Fire. Eventually, Lazenby is forced to head back to the Lexx empty handed. In this case however, Zoey, is unable to find him. They return to the Lexx only to be confronted by 790.
790: Where's Kai?
Lazenby: I don't know.
790: What do you mean, you don't know?
Zoey: Stan is gone too.
790: As if that matters. This doesn't make sense.
Lazenby: We were just coming back and we were intercepted by Prince.
That's when Lazenby steps onto the pedestal and uses the key.
Lazenby: Lexx?
Lexx: Yes, captain?
Lazenby: Kai brought you up some food, a while back. Can you fly now?
Lexx: I think I can, but not very far.
790: What does Lexx's food supply have to do with anything? We have to go start looking for Kai.
Lazenby: I'm asking, cause once I go get the rest of the crew, that the Lexx has enough energy to get us out of here.
Zoey enters the conversation, while holding little Hagen.
Zoey: So, what will you do now?
Lazenby: We have to go back down to the Lexx to go look for Stan and Kai.
790: I just remembered that Kai can't float. I can't bare to think what that means.
790 sobs. Lazenby looks back over to Zoey.
Lazenby: Zoey, I want you to stay up here and look after Hagen, while I and I alone go back down to Water and look for my dad and Kai.
790: But it could take no more than 142 days to scan the planet's surface.
Zoey: That doesn't do Stan much good.
Lazenby: I know, but the sooner we I get started, the better.
Zoey: Why can't I come with you?
Lazenby: It could be dangerous for you and Hagen. You'll have 790 to keep you company. I'll take a squawker, just incase you guys need anything.
The metal git suggests that his time be spent more productively looking for the dead guy. Lazenby gets in a moth and goes back down to the Water planet to go look for his dad. As Kai descends towards the brightness, he passes through lots of floating people. I guess they are all in a sort of limbo waiting to be re-constituted on their respective planets. Each are surrounded by a light of their own, it seems to be sustaining them. I think they are alive, in that they have a sort of consciousness, but they are unable to swim around, a bit scary really.
He heads for Garden City and searches around the area. Without any sign of anyone in the water, he goes back to the Lexx. 790 is there, on the bridge, waiting for news of Kai.
790: So, where's Kai?
Lazenby: I went down and checked around the city, we were last visiting, and I didn't see or find anything.
790: You weren't even down there long enough. What about my Kai?
Lazenby: What about my father? 790, I will find them.
790: Then, you're wasting precious time up here.
Lazenby: I'm the captain, so I can do what I want.
790: We are wasting precious time, that could be used to rejoin two hearts in love.
Lazenby: Kai doesn't have a heart and nor do you.
790: I have a virtual heart.
Lazenby: No you don't and Kai doesn't love you!
Lazenby lashes out. 790 just keeps forgetting that his father is out there too and just doesn't care. Lazenby worries that if he finds his father, he'll be dead and floating in the water.
790: Yes, he does!
Lazenby: The dead don't love!
790: Why do you hate me?
Lazenby: I don't hate you. It's just that my father is out there too and he could be dead.
Then, Lazenby gets an idea.
Lazenby: You know, 790, if you wanna help me find Kai, perhaps you can come with me.
790 gets excited.
790: Excellent idea.
Lazenby and 790 take a moth and head back to the Water planet to look for Kai. They take a large weight and a bag of rope. 790 guides them to the exact place where Kai landed and they throw the rope over the side. They hope to supply a lifeline to a stranded Kai at the bottom of the ocean. Unfortunately the rope is not long enough. Kai however seems to have passed through the limbo people and he disintegrates as he nears the point of light below him. Then he ends up waking up on a bed in Gametown.
Unexpectedly, Xev and 790 just so happen to be flying around, in a moth, nearby. 790 hears a whistle, from nearby, and instantly recognizes who it is.
790: I just heard him!
Lazenby: Who?
790: Who else, but the greatest man who ever died!
Lazenby: Really? Where?
Happy lazenby and 790 fly over to Gametown to pick him up. Lazenby is surely relieved to see Kai, cause his face lights up. Once Kai climbs into the moth, Lazenby had forgotten that he had a squawker and picks up a signal. A signal from a familiar voice.
Stanley: Hello, is anybody there?
Apparently, Stan had a squawker with him too. Lazenby felt happy to hear his father's voice, knowing that he's still alive.
Lazenby: Dad, it's me. Where are you?
By then, another familiar voice is being heard.
Prince: If you want Stan back, you come to my city to discuss a deal. It's time to decide what's more important. Your dad's life or the key to the Lexx. Either way, I will win.
Lazenby lashes out to Prince over the squawker.
Lazenby: I swear I will tear you apart if you harm my father! You piece of crap!
Prince: Cheery-bye.
