"[Man] Knight Rider, a shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man... who does not exist." "Michael Knight, a young loner... on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent," "The helpless, the powerless," "In a world of criminals who operate above the law." "Michael, I hope it won't be much longer." "This dirt is beginning to clog a few of my more sensitive instruments." "We're almost there, buddy." "And it isn't just dirt:" "It's the stuff of ancient Indian civilizations." "Perhaps, but the stuff of ancient Indian civilizations is wreaking havoc on my turbo." "Sorry, KITT." "Devon said it was urgent." ""County Museum, Archeological Site Number 32."" "According to my visuals, Michael, that's Dr. Litton." "Hey!" "Wonder what's wrong with him?" "Dr. Litton!" "I'm Michael Knight from the Foundation!" "You called Devon Miles?" "KITT, I think that man needs some help." "Take over and keep her real steady, huh?" "Of course, Michael." "[Grunts]" "Be careful, Michael." "[Grunts]" "No." "No!" "No!" "It's okay." "I'm Michael Knight." "Devon Miles sent me." "It's okay." " What's wrong with him, Michael?" " I was hoping you could tell me." "Take over." "His blood pressure is 200 over 140." "This man is in extreme danger." "I detect the presence of a very potent drug." "Unknown?" "What do you mean "unknown?" I thought you knew every drug known to mankind... three thousand or something like that." "5,875, to be exact," "And I have records of each chemical within the drug." "But, this particular combination of chemicals is unknown." "All right, let's get him to the hospital." "[Devon] Professor Deauville should be here at any second." "[Bonnie] Devon, I've never seen you so excited." "[Devon] It's not every day one is inducted into so prestigious a society as Helios." "Why is it that when one is in a hurry," "One's tie never seems to go right?" "I think it's called "Devon's First Law of Nervousness." Oh." "Is that all right?" "Perfect." "Bonnie, I'm so pleased that you're here to share this moment with me." "I only wish that Michael was here too." "[Knocking]" "Professor Deauville, hello." "Hello." "Hello, again." "This way, please." "Thank you." "My dear Graham, how very nice to see you." "You're looking well, my friend." "And you." "[Clears Throat]" "Of course, it's always a pleasure to be face-To-Face with your beauty, my dear." "Won't you sit down?" "Yes." "Uh, Devon, I have something important to discuss." "The results of the test." "Oh, yes, the Helios scores." "Of course." "You didn't grade mine, did you?" "I just took it to keep Devon company." "Well, as you know, the Helios test is not merely an entrance examination." "It is widely acknowledged as the most accurate measure of innate intelligence." "It scores not only mental ability," "But the capacity to grasp higher planes of thought... which are used to solve the most urgent problems of our world." "So, I'm very pleased to announce our newest Helios member," "Miss Barstow." " Are you sure?" " We at Helios do not make mistakes." " Congratulations, Bonnie." " I don't know what to say." "There will be an induction ceremony over the weekend at the estate." "You will attend, of course." "Oh, and uh, Devon," "I'm also pleased to announce... that in recognition of your years of devotion and support," "We're making you an honorary member." "An honorary member?" "Thank you." "I'm very pleased." "Permit me." "[Phone Rings] Hello." " Michael, where are you?" " I'm at Physician's Hospital." "Look, I got some bad news." "When I found Dr. Litton, he was having some kind of fit." "He's a in a coma now." "The doctors don't know anything yet." "Devon, there's some kind of drug in his system." "KITT doesn't have any record of it." "Thank you, Michael." "I'll be there right away." "I'm afraid there's bad news." "What?" " Jim Litton." "He's in a coma." " Oh, my God." "The reason I came to see you, Devon, is that in the past month... two of our Helios members have died... mysteriously." "Jim and I go all the way back to Princeton together." "I remember one professor in particular, Dr. Whitehead, took us on a dig... and he told us that, uh, all this folklore about Indian gods... protecting their graves was just superstition." "Well, one nightJim and I covered our bodies in mud and feathers... and put on hideous masks and sneaked into Dr. Whitehead's tent." "[Chuckles] I've never seen a man so frightened, nor run as hard." "Excuse me." "Here it is." "Oh, well..." "You know, last year's find of the Aztec gold... just outside Mexico City, was Jim's biggest triumph." "Apart from the intrinsic value of the gold," "The historical worth of it is inestimable." "Now, to think ofJim Litton like this... at the peak of his career." "[Mumbling]" "Jim." "Jim." " No!" " It's me, Graham." "[Panting] No!" "No!" "You'd better leave." "[Panting]" "That isn'tJim Litton in there." "L-I don't know who or what is inside him," "But that is not theJim I know." "L-I hate to ask such a big favor..." "Anything, Graham." "Anything we can do." "Come to Helios this weekend." "Find out whoever's responsible." "Excuse me, why do you think it's someone from Helios?" "I don't know what to think." "But if it isn't someone from inside our organization, I'm at a total loss." "We'll be happy to come." "We'll do whatever we can." "Thank you." "[Bonnie] It's amazing." "I mean, this place way out here." "It's beautiful." "[Laughs] I can't believe it." "I've always dreamed of belonging to something like this." "Helios is a fine organization, Bonnie." "They made an excellent decision." "I'm proud of you." "Thank you." "I'm sure if you took the test again..." "Oh, no." "It's not of any importance." "Really." "It's just that I was, um, a bit surprised, that's all." "Well, this wouldn't be the same if you were upset." "And anyways, it's not as though you've been left out." "You're an honorary member." "Thank you so much for coming, my friends." "I hope we're not late." "Oh, no, no, no." "We would never begin without our loveliest new member." "[KITT] And Helios, the Greek sun god, the god of brilliance," "Rode to his palace in a chariot of gold." " Kind of like a Rolls-Royce, right?" " I fail to see the logic of that statement." " Forget it." " Had you used a more domestic brand as your model..." "KITT, I said forget it." "It's just a figure of speech." "By the way, you run a scan on the data banks Bonnie added on Helios?" "Yes, I did." "I find no connection between Dr. Litton and the two, deceased Helios members." " No connection?" " By the way, Michael, can a Rolls-Royce do computer scans?" "Not a one." "And believe me, you are as good as gold to me." " Thank you." " [Exhales]" "Who do you think that is?" "A good question, Michael." "This estate is huge." "The grounds seem to be extensive." "They do go on forever." "Why do you think this place is in such a secluded area?" "I don't know, KITT, but with a little snooping around, I might find some answers." "Be careful, Michael." "What you're about to see will astound even you." "This is truly one of the engineering wonders of our time." "In terms of speed, the question is not how fast will this vehicle go," "But how fast do you wish it to go?" "As you know, this is our missing link." "All that remains is to separate the car from its driver," "A pleasant, but unremarkable young man by the name of Michael Knight." "The mansion was purchased in 1952 by the Helios trustees." "Some of our members live on the premises while working on projects and studies." "[Continues, Indistinct] Oh, did you know that this one was done by... the famous Genoan artist, Renaldo Sofo?" "It took him 12 years to complete it." "That's amazing." "Well, 12 years is a long time..." "[Clears Throat]" "Uh, my name is, uh, Irving Farber." "You know, my notes on the Renaissance are particularly stirring." "Uh, I thought maybe we could get together sometime and, um, discuss them. [Chuckles]" "That..." "It certainly sounds exciting." "Irving." "Irving." "Irving." "My friends call me Irving Farber." "Great." "Okay." "Uh, I think we oughta be going." "Okay, after you." "[Guide] He once remarked his own pets made his life worthwhile for they were always loyal." "Please follow me up these stairs." "There are some public areas that you might be interested in." "Hi there." "Michael, Dr. Litton is dead." "He's dead?" "Yes, and the doctors don't know what caused it." "I've asked for an autopsy report as soon as possible." "Three dead men, no clues?" "The drug KITT can't trace?" "What's going on around here?" "Have you discovered anything odd or peculiar?" "Other than most of the Helios members, no." "They're not odd." "They're just different." "Well, let's just say this isn't my kind of place." "Mm." "I'm well aware of that, Michael." "KITT, this place gives me the creeps." "That elevator should be condemned." "KITT, I got a combination lock here." "Can you open it?" "Certainly." "I can also describe the make, model and serial number of the device in question." "You are a full-Service car." "I see you found our storeroom." "That is our food distribution program for the poor." "The wealthy have an obligation to help the less fortunate." "Don't you agree?" "I do." "Hey, nice jacket." "Oh, thank you." "Well, look your best and you'll always look best to her." "Uh-Oh, excuse me." "Uh, Miss Barstow, your outfit is very becoming." "Fits you in all the right..." "I mean, it's-It's very well tailored." " Would you care to, uh..." " Bonnie," "KITT's electronic transformer's been acting up, it's very bad." " Can we discuss it?" " Oh, we better." "Excuse us." "Uh, sure." " I do admire a woman of such dedication, don't you?" " Oh, well, yeah." "[Clears Throat]" "Thanks for saving me." "I should thank you." "I mean, after all, I didn't know whether you'd still talk to me now that you're smart." "Never stopped me before." "That's very funny." "[Laughs] Excuse me." "Hold that." "Thank you." "Was that gentlemanly?" "What a guy." "A real sport." "You know, I..." "Hello again." "I suppose congratulations are in order." "You're an inductee, aren't you?" "No, no." "I'm just a guest." "Oh, I'm sorry." "Well, actually, you don't look like a Helios member to me." "Really?" "I should take that as a compliment." "I'm Dr. Charlene Hanover." "Michael Knight." "You're the man who helped Dr. Litton." "Yeah." "Did you know him?" "My field is also archaeology." "I visited him at the dig." "Quite a large dig, considering." "What do you mean?" "Considering what?" "[Beeps] Yeah, KITT, what is it?" "Michael, my sensors have picked up some animal cries coming from a room at the far end of the mansion." "Thanks, pal." "Hi." "How you doing?" "Okay." "[Animal Squeaking]" " Oh, hi, little guy." " [Screeching]" "Oh, hi." "Um, I'm just looking around." "You know, the party's kind of dull." "Sometimes the animals are more friendly than people are." "Yeah." "Yeah, they are." "But, you know, they make rotten dancers." "[Chuckles]" "Well, I'll see you later." "Thank you." "[Door Closes]" "Bonnie, this is Peter Stark." "He will show you our laboratory facilities." "I trust you will find them most interesting." "I'm sure I will." "I know you will." "[KITT] An elusive woman scientist." "Three dead men." "A secret storeroom." "An experimental lab with animals." "Michael, something strange is going on here." "I know exactly what you mean, KITT." "And it all started at Dr. Litton's dig site." "Michael, this dig site must be filled with ancient artifacts." "Okay, KITT." "Let's see what Dr. Charlene Hanover seems so mysterious about." "I detect a large pit and sizable deposits of fresh earth inside." "Speaking of artifacts, Michael, I believe I just ran over one." "KITT, it's gotta be hundreds of years old." " I could date it for you if you like." " Yeah, why not." " Here you go." " [Whirring]" "Michael, this fragment is less than a month old." "A month old?" "Sure doesn't look it." "KITT, this thing must have been planted here." "But Dr. Litton was a world-Renowned archaeologist." "Yeah, I know." "I know." "He wouldn't be involved in something like this." " Then who do you think is?" " I don't know." "That's a real good question." "Who and why?" "All right, KITT." "I need a boost about 25 feet... straight up." "Michael, you are an invited guest." "May I suggest the front door?" "No, not this time." "This time I wanna visit without anybody knowing." "All right, let's go for it." " Thanks, KITT." " Anytime." "Dr. James Litton." ""Bonnie Barstow."" ""Fail?" That's strange." "KITT?" "KITT, I don't know exactly what's going on around here, but I don't like it." "You know where Bonnie is?" "My sensors detect Bonnie on the second floor in the south wing." "And Michael, hurry." "The sun's rising, and everyone will be up soon." " KITT, get the door." " There is a guard inside." "Get rid of him, KITT." "All right." "[Whirring]" "[Ringing]" "Bonnie." "Bonnie." "[Alarm Continues]" "KITT, meet me at the door in exactly 30 seconds." " I'm on my way." " [Engine Starts]" "Bonnie, come on." "Wake up." "We gotta get out of here." "Come on." "Come on." "Let's go." "[Tires Screech]" "Michael, go back." "What?" "Come on." "It's Michael." "Be quiet." "KITT, pull over to the front." "Bonnie, I agree with Michael." "This is highly irregular and disconcerting." "It's okay, KITT." "Trust me." "I'll explain later." "Better listen to her, KITT." "Good work, my dear." "Excellent." "You see, Mr. Knight, in addition to highly toxic, untraceable drugs that can kill," "We've also perfected chemicals that control the mind." "Come." "Normally, I wouldn't do this." "But, since you won't be around to reveal our master plan," "I think it only fitting that you behold its brilliance." "You see, the truth of our time... is that nuclear holocaust is inevitable." "Perhaps not tomorrow." "Perhaps not next week, but someday." "Common wisdom has it that if there are survivors," "The nuclear aftermath will further decimate the population." "But, those who think that this is a matter of random survival," "Have quite forgotten their Darwin." " You're insane." " No, not insane." "Advanced intelligence." "And who better to survive than the most intelligent people on the Earth." "[Michael] An underground city." "It was our perfect cover until poorJames Litton started to nose around... and get suspicious." "Why have you done this to Bonnie?" "What can you possibly want from her?" "KITT." "You see, that car will make an impossible crime impossibly easy." "Does it surprise you that... we have devised the perfect crime to finance our project?" "Coming from you, nothing surprises me." "Good." "Then we understand each other." "You see, we have already excavated one-Quarter of our city under the present dig." "Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but you can't use the car." " KITT's programmed to take orders from me." " Peter, take care of Mr. Knight." "You have everything you need, my dear?" "Yes, Professor Deauville." "Good." "Then let us begin." "Wait, what are you doing?" "Hey, wait a minute!" "Hey, hold it!" "[Grunts]" "I think this is what you want, Professor Deauville." "The entire operation should take no more than 17 minutes." "Excellent." "Bonnie, you said you'd explain about Michael." "Where is he?" "He..." " kind of went underground." " Underground?" "I have no record of such a mission." " Bonnie?" " [Beeping]" "[Beeping, Whirring]" "KITT!" "KITT, where are you?" "Give it up, Stark.!" "Now, the security system." "Bonnie, I hesitate to bring this up again, but I've done a complete search of my records... and still find no record of Michael's underground mission." "It's all right, KITT." "I can fix that." "Bonnie." "Bonnie?" "I still cannot find..." "[Distorted] I have no record..." "[Slow Fade] Of Michael's... of Michael's..." "[Shuts Off]" "Hey, Stark, looks like you're stuck in there, huh?" "KITT?" "KITT?" "KITT, can you hear me?" "Play back the plan, please." "I am to assist in the removal of the Aztec gold from the County Museum." "With my microwave jammers and surveillance capabilities," "Phase two with the County Museum should take no more than one minute and 10 seconds." "Once the Aztec gold is reached, phase three will commence." "Once secured and melted down, the gold at current international prices... will be worth $25.7 million." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Stop!" "There's still no word from Stark." "Well, we can't wait any longer." "Let us begin." "[Engine Starts]" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "Hey, Charlene, stop!" "Thanks for stopping." "Look, we gotta get back to Helios right away." "Helios?" "No." "I won't go back there." "Deauville's brainwashed Bonnie." "Now they're using my car." "They're planning on using it for some kind of robbery." "It's too late." "They've already gone." "Where were they going?" "Where were they going?" "Listen to me!" "They got Bonnie." "They drugged her." "Now, please!" "Help me!" "You don't understand!" "He's mad!" "If he finds out I helped you, he'll kill me, just like he killed the others." "All right." "I'm sorry." "There's no time left." "Please, tell me, where were they going?" "The County Museum." "All right." "That's where we're going." "Now, either you drive or I drive." "It's up to you." "Come on." "Come on." "[Engine Starts]" " Phase one, KITT." " Very well, Bonnie." "Primary security system deactivation completed." "Auxiliary security system deactivation completed." "Now the locks, KITT." "Phase two." "Phase two completed." "Let's go." "Call the police." "Kill Michael Knight, KITT." "Kill him!" "[Engine Starts]" "No, KITT." "You're mine." " I have my orders." " You're my car, KITT." "I obey Graham Deauville." "What does KITT stand for?" " [Engine Revs]" " It's the Knight Industry Two Thousand." " I know that because you're my car." " [Squeals]" "You obey me." "You've been programmed to obey me." "Tell him, Bonnie." "That's right, KITT." "No, that's not right." "I'm Michael Knight." "You are the Knight Industry Two Thousand!" "You are my car!" "You belong to me!" " KITT." " I have my orders." "I obey Graham Deauville." "Then you're gonna have to kill me to stop me." " I obey Graham Deauville." " [Revving]" "[Whirring]" "I obey Graham Deauville." "[KITT, Slowly] I obey..." " [Revving Falters]" " Graham..." "[Distorted] Deauville." "I can't kill you, Michael." "You know that." "I was counting on that, pal." "You made one big mistake, Deauville." "KITT was programmed never, ever to take a human life." "Stop, Michael." "Bonnie, it's all over." "We work together." "We're a team." "You and me and Devon and KITT." "No." "Now, listen to me." "We work together to help people." "Not to hurt 'em." "Take my hand, Bonnie." "Remember the Foundation?" "Remember Devon?" "Remember me?" "We're a team." "We love each other." "[Engine Starts] Yeah, that-A-Girl." "Okay." "It's all over now." "It's okay." "It's okay." "Go get Devon." "Go call Devon on the phone." "Let's go, KITT." "I'm with you, Michael." "How ya doing, pal?" "Just like old times." "Michael, he's trying to cut us off." "Let's go, pal." "Let's go skiing, huh?" "Whoo.!" "[KITT] Hang onto your hat." "[Sirens Approaching]" "What's this?" "This is eggs, scrambled." "Toast, light." "Juice, fresh." "Strawberries and cream." "Devon's idea." " And the single, yellow rose?" " Michael's idea." "Auto News?" "[KITT] My idea, Bonnie." "Hope you like it." "[Laughs] I love it, KITT." "It's just what I need." "KITT's been nice to me all morning." "I think he feels guilty." "Michael, guilt is an emotional..." "a human response." "However, I could order you a subscription of Automotive Today too." "That's okay." "Oh, by the way." "I forgot." "I found this in the Helios file." "Oh, what's this?" "It's the results of my test." "I passed!" " [Laughing]" " I think this should be yours." "Oh, what's that?" "[Together] The Helios pin." "Thank you, Bonnie." "Hey!" "Pretty good." "What a good idea." "Wait a minute." "These are really fresh." "[Chuckles] Wait." "[Man] Michael Knight, a lone crusader in a dangerous world," "The world of the Knight Rider."
