Section Zero (2016) s01e08 Episode Script

1
That same drilled hole in the head
as the others.
Operation complete.
Not sure it’s worth filming
what we just saw.
Why?
Hard to believe
you didn’t know.
How did you let this happen?
Block 13 was placed
under Munro’s responsibility.
His actions don’t reflect my competence.
So, follow orders,
and keep your qualms to yourself.
More bad news:
Diane Becker and her children were shot
while escaping with Sorensen.
They’re all dead.
And with them, all our research results.
I’ll let you break it to Sirius.
Is there a problem?
BLOOD AND TEARS
What will you do with him?
Bury him with his people.
In the cemetery
with his wife and son.
I can’t let you take that risk.
Just try and stop me.
- I’ll go, too. To bury the snitch.
- Shut up, Janko.
You don’t know anything.
Without him, I’d be dead.
Back to camp.
We’ll talk there.
And Foetus?
The chip is dead.
We don’t know where he is.
I’m waiting for news
from Black Squad.
You can bring down
Munro and his army.
My mission’s over.
I’m burying Charly
and going home.
There’s no home, Sirius.
If you want to find your family,
stick it out with us a little longer.
Diane and the kids escaped.
We don’t know where.
Sorensen helped them.
He was shot by the Black Squad.
So don’t lose your head
and stick around.
It’s the only way to find your family
before Munro does.
We only heard screams.
Cries
We never saw them return.
Then we heard what happened.
From a girl they kept
to be a soldiers’ hooker, like us.
She saw them.
She saw them remove part of their brains
while they were still alive.
They injected it all
into conditioning machines.
Threw the bodies
into pits.
The worst was
the kids.
The kids’ screams.
Those who didn’t meet their standards
were sacrificed.
Why did they spare you?
They needed girls.
Entire hordes would use us
Either that, or death.
What do they do
with the brain extracts?
Mixed with other drugs,
it makes Chimera.
You tellin’ me those motherfuckers
make drugs with people’s brains?
It looks like it.
I’ll take you to your brother.
- A team will go with you.
- I’ll go alone.
Then I’ll go bury Charly.
We’d do better
to take care of the living.
They’ve got Foetus,
we can’t abandon him.
Last time you came to the bar,
you asked me which I thought was wiser.
He who accepts everything,
or he who accepts nothing.
I said that
anger could only be defused by submission.
I was wrong.
Betty
No one can know I’m alive.
Put him in isolation.
No one talks to him. He talks to no one.
Please hand over
your service weapon
and calmly respect the investigation.
To proceed to your arrest
without using certain methods
that you and I would regret.
I never carry a weapon.
I hope you have good reason
for humiliating me in front of my men.
Good reasons are
all over the city’s screens
and information networks.
You’ve tarred our regime for too long.
The riots that broke out after the videos
of the victims in our trucks were released
are also in the Steps
and the Deviant’s quarters.
The Block 13 survivors spoke out.
About rape, torture, the drilling,
kids’ bodies thrown into pits.
They’re telling it all.
The city’s on fire,
we need a culprit.
I’d rather be a culprit than useless.
You can judge me,
sentence me,
throw me to the masses
demanding vengeance.
You’ll always be
a pathetic minion,
working for a cause you don’t get.
We’ll talk in the interrogation room.
Take him.
Here.
Thank you.
Were you together a long time?
Almost a year.
I met her on a drug case.
She was just my informant,
then things changed.
Do you know the penalty
for carrying on with a hooker or a deviant?
Five to ten
in the labor camp.
What about a cop
suspected of homicide.
What does your law say?
We don’t know Emerson killed Eva.
There’s no proof.
Then who?
The tech unit found tracks from another car.
Looks like the SUVs
used by the Black Squad.
I called Doc, he briefed me.
He’s also doing the autopsy
on your girlfriend.
When we know the caliber of the bullet,
we can compare it to Emerson’s gun.
I’m scared, Elie.
Everyone’s dying, it’ll be us soon.
There are things worse than death.
I found this
in the dump my daughter lives in.
You know what it is?
A new drug in the Steps.
Sorensen had loads of it.
Know where it’s from?
No.
Sirius was on it.
He asked Doc to run tests.
We were waiting on the results.
She was shot point blank,
possibly by a trafficked .357.
With a full metal jacket bullet.
I didn’t find an exit wound.
Which means
the bullet is lodged in the skull.
If it’s one of our weapons,
we’ll know whose it is.
Sure you want to
see the autopsy?
Okay, let’s go.
It changes nothing.
Just cancels out the debt.
Just one question
- What did they do to her?
- She’ll tell you.
- I got a friend to bury. Gotta go.
- Wait.
I was your only friend.
I’m not in the ground yet.
It’s been 10 years,
Saber.
You still don’t get
that it wasn’t me.
You were the only one fucking Elie.
The only one who wanted Simon gone.
I wasn’t in charge that day,
it was Simon.
He’s the one
who wanted to die.
Cause he knew
He knew about me and Elie.
Someone told him.
Someone I trusted,
who I thought was my friend.
Who has access to the refrigerated room?
Everyone.
Surveillance cameras?
Broken for ages.
Without the head,
we can’t trace the shooter.
Cheyenne was right.
I don’t know any cop
who would do that.
He’s not much of a cop.
Ease up
on the bottle, Doc.
I’m gonna have to launch
a federal investigation.
You should be sober
when they show up.
Fuck the feds!
What’s this?
Sirius said it was secret,
but he’s dead.
Tell me what you know.
It’s all in there.
I just want to know what’s in this shit.
- Why it exists, what it does.
- We don’t know why the fuck it exists.
But it’s a cocktail
of the most dangerous stuff on the market.
Plus a new substance
with intense hallucinatory effects.
DMT.
It’s a strong psychotropic substance,
hidden behind an endocrine gland
in the human brain.
It can be made synthetically.
From mimosa hostilis,
or acacia obtusifolia.
But
there haven’t been
any acacias or mimosas
on this fucking planet for ages.
Which means?
They can’t make it.
They have to get it where it is.
From humans
The trepanated corpses in the trucks.
- Charly knew, so they took him.
- And they killed Sirius.
Drop this case, Elie.
Those who are capable of such things
won’t hesitate to kill a cop
who gets in their way.
Charly gave me this for you.
In case something happened to him.
He said you’d understand.
Outbursts of violence in the city
after the discovery
of a mass grave
in the old military base, Block 13.
This footage was shot
in the Low City.
Dozens of cars
are on fire
In the Deviant’s quarters, stones and
Molotov cocktails are flying through the air.
What’s in the envelope?
Nude pics of your mom, asshole.
How should I know?
A high ranking member of Prometheus
was behind the revelations.
Many of the missing
were identified among the bodies
taken from the Steps
by unknown militia.
Where the hell have you been?
We need backup in the Deviant’s quarters.
The city’s on fire, riots everywhere.
- Eva Antonenka, ring a bell?
- Why?
We’re looking for her head,
seen it?
No.
I don’t know
who you’re with, or why,
but I’m going to find out,
and you’ll lose everything.
My dad used to take me fishing here.
Right there.
The lake was full of fish,
families brought picnics.
We sailed, did paddle boating.
Then there were the nuclear experiments.
Radiation.
They killed the lake.
Block 13 has been destroyed.
Munro arrested, put in isolation.
Eberling is on her way out.
Things have gone fast, maybe too fast.
But we did it.
At what price?
Blood is washed not by blood,
but by tears.
You’ll take over the Black Squad.
Eberling will give one last speech
to the masses.
Sirius, Janko, and the others
Sirius died once, he can die again.
The others will go back
to their shit holes.
Who ordered
Diane Becker and the kids dead?
We didn’t need her.
Better dead kids than orphans.
All witnesses must be eliminated.
We knew that.
And Eberling?
Let me take care of my people.
He doesn’t deserve your tears, Becker.
Turn around.
Go over there.
There’s something interesting.
Stop.
Who’s in there?
No one.
And here?
They buried them this morning.
The Black Squad sealed the area off.
No witnesses, no ceremony.
A grave digger told me
before I shot him.
I came to kill you, Becker.
But now I don’t have
to do you the favor.
You knew they were dead
and you lied to me!
Put him in security quarters.
Reactivate the chip.
Thought she was coming over.
Big bad wolf in position.
Awaiting instructions.
No instructions.
Munro was arrested.
It’s all over the news.
What now?
I’ll think about it
and call you back.
Get out.
What did he say?
He’s thinking.
Since when do negroes think?
Since white people like us kiss their ass.
I call on people
to return to their normal lives
and personally promise
that those responsible
for these hateful crimes
will be apprehended
and brought before our Supreme Court
which I’ve asked
to apply admonitory sanctions.
Our security services have already
apprehended the main instigator
behind these terrible events.
Lieutenant Colonel Munro,
ex-head of the Black Squad,
has been placed in isolation
in our disciplinary quarters,
where he’s being interrogated,
before being transferred to Tomza work camp.
I’d like to assure
the victims’ families
and the survivors
of our unwavering support.
The Great Queen of Prometheus
saving her balls by cutting off Munro’s.
Never thought I’d see that.
But no clues about the Chimera.
Nope.
Yukov and Sorensen,
what’s their deal?
Mercenary bodies disappearing.
MK tattooed on their necks.
What’s that?
All these deaths caused by
a few pills – it just doesn’t make sense.
I thought
your daughter came first.
She always has.
But I need to understand all this.
- Saber?
- Yes.
Meet me at Charly’s. We need to talk.
Your uncooperative attitude
sadly forces me to use
your own methods, Colonel.
We know that you hacked into
Diane Becker’s computer program
Which gave you access
to vital information
needed to carry on the research program,
which we had
such difficulty setting up.
Just tell us where the information is
and you’ll get
a much more comfortable cell.
Until, of course,
your transfer to the work camp.
Where you’ll be a first class inmate.
There are times, Colonel,
when you must know how to surrender.
Obsession leads to madness
and suffering.
God is with those who suffer.
Josephson.
You son of a bitch.
You won’t find
anything out from me.
Pour me a glass, Karl.
These speeches are tiring.
- None for you?
- Not tonight.
Below, the power of darkness.
Above,
the darkness of power.
The people are a donkey to bridle.
We’ve managed
to avoid the worst.
But we must regain their trust.
How do you see things going forward?
A nation which rises up
is a nation which no longer fears power.
A nation
which no longer fears power
is hoping for a new power.
I don’t understand.
Never mind.
Someone once said:
“Politics is war
“without bloodshed.”
Mao Zedong.
But he was wrong.
Security.
Colonel Josephson.
Mrs. Eberling just took her life.
Send a medical team.
Sorry about this, commandant.
You left me no choice.
Why did you reactivate me?
To finish your mission.
Fuck off.
I won’t listen to you.
Even if I hand you the killer
and a chance to get Foetus back?
Munro was arrested,
he’s being transferred to Tomza work camp.
I have the convoy’s
detailed itinerary.
Janko, Lucy Lee and six men
will be with him.
Once your mission’s over
you’re free.
Secure the exterior.
I go in, clean up,
we get out of here.
You alone with two chicks,
can you do it?
If I need a dog, I’ll whistle for you.
I’ll kill this fucker, one day.
Put your hands on your knees.
Move slowly, or I’ll shoot.
Your friend, where is she?
Upstairs, asleep.
You’re reading?
Big words, not for you.
Even on your deathbed,
you open your big mouth.
Drop your gun.
There’s a chance
your shot will miss me.
But I have
zero chances of missing her.
Shoot, and she dies before me.
You decide.
What fuckers, still riding our ass!
Let’s get out of here.
What did he want?
This.
Can you explain?
Nothing to explain.
The hundreds of bodies
on Route 67,
the letters on the trucks.
I’m not an idiot.
Where are you
in all this?
- How did you get these files?
- Answer me.
It’s not up to me.
For the rest,
the photos are everywhere.
And why the Chimera?
To turn their Meka soldiers
into killing machines.
That’s all we know.
- How do you know?
- My sister.
They caught her.
She saw and heard stuff.
“MK” tattooed on the neck,
that’s them?
Lucy Lee, Janko, Foetus,
are they still alive?
Yes.
And Sirius?
How’s he involved?
Let it go.
I gotta go.
Wait.
What about a guy
called Bianchi?
Gone.
They executed Bianchi.
And Charly, too.
Look at me.
Look at me, asshole!
Look at me!
They’re alive.
What did you say?
They’re alive.
- What did you say?
- “They’re alive.”
Where?
Where are they?
Where are they?
