Black Panther

Young N'Jadaka: Baba. N'Jobu: Yes, my son? Young N'Jadaka: Tell me a story. N'Jobu: Which one? Young N'Jadaka: The story of home. N'Jobu: Millions of years ago, a meteorite made of vibranium, the strongest substance in the universe, struck the continent of Africa, affecting the plant life around it. And when the time of men came, five tribes settled on it and called it Wakanda. The tribes lived in constant war with each other until a warrior shaman received a vision from the panther goddess Bast, who led him to the Heart-Shaped Herb, a plant that granted him superhuman strength, speed, and instincts. The warrior became king and the first Black Panther, the protector of Wakanda. Four tribes agreed to live under the king's rule, but the Jabari tribe isolated themselves in the mountains. The Wakandans used vibranium to develop technology more advanced than any other nation, but as Wakanda thrived, the world around it descended further into chaos. To keep vibranium safe, the Wakandans vowe

N'Jobu: Hey, look if we get in and out quick, it'll be no worries. You and the van come in from the west and laying right here. Me and the twins come in on the east, leaving this car behind. We'll come in ..... N'Jobu: Hide the straps. Zuri: Yo, is it the Feds? N'Jobu: No. Zuri: It's these two Grace Jones looking chicks. They hold spears. N'Jobu: [Recognizing who the women are] Open it. Zuri: Are you serious? N'Jobu: They won't knock again.

N'Jobu: I observed for as long as I could. Their leaders have been assassinated. Communities flooded with drugs and weapons. They are overly policed and incarcerated. All over the planet, our people suffer because they don't have the tools to fight back. With vibranium weapons they can overthrow all countries and Wakanda can rule them all, the right way. T'Chaka: [to his brother] Did you think you were the only spy we sent to the States? [Zuri reveals himself]

Zuri: So, your mission did not go as planned. T'Challa: What happened to my uncle, N'Jobu? My father told me he disappeared. There was a man today wearing a ring identical to this one. Zuri: It is not possible. T'Challa: He helped Klaue escape from us and he was wearing this ring. My grandfather's ring! Do not tell me what is impossible, tell me the truth! Zuri: Some truths... [Exhales deeply] are too much to bear, T'Challa. T'Challa:: That is not your choice to make. What happened to him? Zuri: I promised the king to say nothing. T'Challa: [Irritated] I AM YOUR KING NOW! Zuri: Your uncle took a War Dog assignment in America. Your father placed me there to observe unbeknownst to him. Your uncle fell in love with an American woman, they had a child. The hardship he saw there radicalized your uncle. N'Jobu: I observed for as long as I could. Their leaders have been assassinated. Communities flooded with drugs and weapons. They are overly policed and incarcerated. All over the planet, our

Shuri: Strike it. T'Challa: Anywhere? Shuri: Mmm-hmm. Shuri: [indignantly] Not that hard, genius! T'Challa: You told me to strike it! You didn't say how hard! Shuri: I invite you to my lab and you just kick things around?!

Ulysses Klaue: [Cuffed to a chair, singing] "Don't hurt me, no more! What is love? Baby, don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more..." [Casually] You know, you really shouldn't trust the Wakandans. I'm much more your speed. Ross: I don't trust anybody, not in this job. But what I AM interested in is that arm cannon out there. Where'd you get that? Klaue: It's an old mining tool that I made some adjustments to. But I can, uh, get you one if you like. Ross: Why don't you give me the name of your supplier, and I'll ask them? Klaue: He's right outside. Why don't you ask him yourself? Ross: What, T'Challa? You're telling me that weapon on your arm is from Wakanda? Klaue: [Winks and clicks] Bingo. What do you actually know about Wakanda? Ross: Um... Shepherds, textiles, cool outfits... Klaue: It's all a front. Explorers searched for it for centuries. "El Dorado, the Golden City" – they thought they could find it in South America, but it was in Africa the whole time. A technological marvel. All b
