Revolution s01e11 Episode Script

The Stand

Previously on revolution.
It's going to turn off, and it will never turn back on.
What the hell is going on? Don't let anybody know you have it.
Keep it safe.
Ben Matheson, I'm gonna have to ask you to come with us.
- You can't take him.
- Stop! Back up! - No! - Dad! Danny's gone.
My brother Miles is in Chicago.
He can get Danny.
You have to do this.
Uncle Miles? My little brother's out there somewhere.
It's my job to get him back.
If you want to see him again, we're gonna have to go up against Monroe and a couple thousand of his men.
I gotta go get Nora.
You joined the rebels? Trying to bring back the United States.
How long you been following us? He's militia.
Who knows what he told Monroe.
He's a spy, Charlie.
Your son.
How do I know where his loyalties lie? - You have my word.
- I'll keep him in line.
Let Danny go.
I'll tell you everything.
If you want to turn the power back on, it starts with these pendants.
It's an amplifier.
Flips on tanks, weapons.
You were in charge of the whole militia? Yep.
I trained them.
Come back.
I'll let your family live.
I'm sorry I didn't kill you the first time.
- Charlie? - Mom? We're gonna find a way out of here, and we're gonna go get your son.
Danny? Go! In here.
Okay, they're going to come looking for the bodies.
We gotta go.
Where? As far away from Philly as we can get.
Sir? They've searched everywhere.
They didn't find any remains.
Is it possible there weren't any remains to find? It's possible, but it's also Miles, so Right.
Miles.
Who you let slip right past you back at the prison, and escape with all his friends.
He took advantage of you, Tom.
That is a troubling weakness.
I'm sorry, sir.
Don't worry yourself.
Miles doesn't matter.
We have light, power.
We have everything.
And it's time to let everyone know it, starting with the rebels.
You find me every rebel camp in the Republic, every one.
We send in the choppers.
We wipe them from God's Earth.
And once that irritation is done, it's on to Georgia.
Then the Plains Nation.
Then California.
It's all going to be the Monroe Republic, sea to shining sea.
Yes, sir.
And Tom? If you do find Miles, and he's alive Kill him.
Cargo? Coming from the city morgue.
Let's take a look.
Buddy, they're just corpses.
We're on lock-down, checking everything coming out of Philly.
Why? What's going on? Escaped fugitives.
We're looking for a couple of men.
Some women, too.
Look, we're just trying to do our job.
Me too.
Open 'em up.
That one.
Smell's killer, So, Rachel, it turns out you're not the mild-mannered housewife I thought you were.
We've been through a lot, Aaron.
Not now, all right? I'm sorry.
It's just that you're alive, which is, you know, newsworthy.
And you knew about the necklaces and the blackout.
- Aaron - Rachel.
Ben gave me that necklace.
It drove me nuts.
It almost got us all killed.
I deserve an explanation.
He's right.
We all do.
I know, and I will explain everything.
All right? It's complicated.
Under the trees! Where are they going? West Chester's that way.
There's a rebel camp in West Chester.
Militia's moving rifles up here and here, along I-76.
If we hit hard and fast Do you hear that? My Revolution S01 E11 - The stand - Is anybody alive? - No.
I've never seen anything like this.
This is what war used to look like, before the blackout.
Miles, I gotta go.
- Go where? - Central command.
What's central command? Rebel headquarters, in downtown Annapolis.
I gotta tell them about this.
I'm coming with you.
Yeah.
I am, too.
What? No.
No way.
If they hit this base, they're going to hit the rest.
We have to warn them.
I hung in there, okay? Through some very bad times.
But we did it.
We found Danny.
So please, let's just go home.
What home? Sooner or later, Monroe will find us.
There's no home to go back to.
Then we leave the Monroe Republic.
It's all going to be the Monroe Republic.
- Rachel - I gave Monroe the amplifier.
He has the helicopters because of me.
All of this is because of me.
If it's not up to me to stop him, then who? Hey.
It's too late.
How's anybody going to win this? With muskets? Crossbows? Then we get some bigger guns.
Yeah.
How? What if I was able to get the rebels missile launchers? Thermal-guided, surface to air? Rachel, firepower like that, it takes imaging systems, tracking chips.
It takes power.
Monroe has power.
Let's get some of our own.
There's a guy I used to work with not far from here.
He can help us.
And this co-worker of yours has electricity? I get it.
You can't explain it.
It's complicated.
You know I'm coming with you, right? Somebody's got to keep you in one piece.
And that's you? You're the one who's going to make sure that nothing bad happens to me? Well, it's not a discussion, Rachel.
If you guys see the choppers coming, you run, you understand? Get out of sight.
I'm proud of you.
Both of you.
I'll see you soon.
Just come back this time, okay? I promise.
It's okay.
I'm going to be here when you wake up.
I'm not going anywhere.
I promise.
I love you, Danny.
I love you to the moon and back.
I don't know.
Maybe we shouldn't do this.
No one's ever done this procedure before.
No one's even tested it.
He's not a science project.
Yeah, you're right.
He's our son.
And nothing else has worked.
This is what's left.
Okay? She'll be back.
That was a slaughter.
I prefer "decisive.
" There were families in there, sir.
Which is a tragedy.
But you tell me, what kind of enemy hides behind their women and children? So, let's have a little chat about where the closest rebel camp is.
Nora? I, think we found your rebel base.
I do not believe it.
Nicholas.
What are you doing here? Nora, you're a sight for sore eyes.
Charlie, right? Yeah.
Meet commander Ramsey.
It's an honor, sir.
I don't know about that.
I'm not commander of much anymore.
And I was with the unit in rockville when they came and caught us by surprise.
Never thought I'd see anything like that again.
We saw them take out the West Chester camp.
They're taking us all out.
It's a full-on extermination.
- So what's the plan? - Plan? This resistance? It's over.
For good.
What if we can help? And how are you going to do that? We won't.
Miles Matheson will.
We ever going to talk about You know, this? There's nothing to talk about.
Rachel, I saw a body.
It was you.
You gotta know that I I would never, ever have left if I thought you were alive.
All this time, with Bass, did he hurt you? Hey.
Everything that happened, it's all my fault.
All of it.
And I will never be able to make it up to you.
And I'm sorry.
Step back Please.
Will you look at that? The Lord works in mysterious ways.
Come on.
Call in the air strike.
Is there a problem? We can't do this.
Excuse me? There are too many people in there.
Is it really about the people, and not just one person in particular? That pert little bitch has got you soft as a kitten.
Need I remind you we are at war with these rebels? With those choppers, we're not fighting.
We're butchering.
I didn't sign on for this.
You don't get to choose what you sign on for.
You follow orders.
Not this time.
Dad You are a shameful disappointment to me.
Don't ever come home again.
Rachel.
Is that really you? Hey, John.
- It's been a long time.
- Yeah.
Come in, come in.
Where where Where have you been? Philadelphia.
Monroe has been keeping me a prisoner.
Well, why, why? What happened? It's a long story.
Who's he? Who are you? I'm a friend.
Yeah? Okay.
I'm just really glad to see you.
I thought for sure you were dead.
Have you spoken to anyone else? No, nobody.
It's been radio silence.
Really? What about Grace? No, she won't answer her computer.
Nobody will.
You know, it's like they all just vanished.
- Why? - I don't know.
Okay.
John, we have other problems.
Monroe has an amplifier.
What? How did he get it? From me.
- From you? - I made a mistake.
I need to fix it.
I need your help.
Charlie.
I'm not going to hurt you.
You mean, you're not going to throw me off a train again? Jason.
- What? - That's my real name.
Jason Neville.
Neville? Like major Neville? He's my father.
He spotted you and your camp, and right now, he's riding back to give orders for an air strike.
How long do we have? You should get out of here.
I don't have anywhere to go.
Charlie, I'm finished.
With the militia, with all of it.
Look, I appreciate the warning, but you can't come with me.
Wait Be careful with that.
What is it? It's a sonic Cannon.
It emits a directional, high-pitched audio frequency, knocks its targets out cold.
And you just sit down here, with your necklace and your electricity, just making stuff? It's a hobby.
Yeah.
I obviously have a lot of free time, so Thank you.
Sweet.
Look at that.
Yeah, we'll take one of these.
Are you okay? No, Rachel.
No, I'm not.
I I have a confession to make, about grace.
I do know what happened to her.
I-I know why she's not answering her computer.
Why? Randall got to her.
Randall? And, and the thing is, Rachel, he got to me, too.
- No.
- I-I'm sorry.
- John - I'm sorry.
How's it all going? There's water damage, circuits are fried, software's corrupted.
It's a rat's nest.
I have every confidence in you.
Listen, something's come up.
I've got to take a little trip.
And I leave you in Mr.
Austin's capable hands.
You're leaving me with him? He's an animal.
But that's what makes him such an effective and loyal associate.
Ever since the D.
O.
D.
days.
Just get the elevators working, Grace.
Get me down to level 12.
And if I can't? How much time before the choppers get here? He said 12 hours.
And we're sure this guy is legit? I don't see why he'd lie.
Okay.
They're coming at us with the big guns.
We're not going to be able to evacuate all the wounded in time.
So my vote? We make our stand.
It's a hell of a long shot, sir.
Miles and Rachel will be here with those missiles.
And if they're not? Then we use the guns we do have.
I say we send a message to Monroe, that he can't do to us what the Russians, Germans, or Al-Qaeda couldn't.
And if we go down, then we go down as Americans.
I need volunteers, people to go out front, be the first line of defense against the choppers.
I'm sorry about this Rachel, I really am.
John, listen to me.
- You gotta let us go.
- No.
No.
I had to tell him you were here.
He's been looking for you.
- You mean Randall.
- Yes, I mean Randall.
He's coming, Rachel.
He'll be here soon.
He has big plans for you.
John my kids You can't You can't do this.
I don't have a choice.
You know how dangerous Randall is.
You know how unbalanced he is.
Which is exactly why I don't have a choice.
Rachel, Randall got into the tower.
No.
No, John, that's I don't want to hurt anybody.
He's making me help him, and you know what will happen to me if I don't.
And if you don't help him, you know what will happen to you, too.
- Hurry.
- Who the hell is Randall? Trust me, you don't want to stay around to find out.
Let's get the weapons and go.
And this intel's accurate? Yes, sir.
I, saw the Matheson girl myself.
Did you see Miles with her? No, but we have to assume he's there, don't we? I suppose so.
Order the strike.
Sir.
Thank you, Tom.
You did good work out there.
Are you all right? You seem a little rattled.
It's my son.
He's dead.
I'm sorry.
Danny.
Danny! Danny, Danny, it's going to be okay, all right? You're just having an asthma attack.
Calm down.
It's going to be okay.
Breathe the way I'm breathing.
Just breathe, okay? Just breathe.
Hey.
How you doing? Terrified.
Well, don't worry.
Miles and mom will be here soon.
Danny, I gotta ask you for something.
When the choppers come, I need you to get inside.
What? The medics are going to need help with the wounded.
- I'm not hiding inside.
- Yes, you are.
And you know why? Because you owe me.
Because I walked over 1,000 miles to get to you.
And I will never play this card again.
I'll never ask you for anything again.
But I'm asking you for this.
Please sit this one out.
Look, you're right.
I could never repay you for what you've done, but Charlie, it's not your job to look out for me anymore.
Charlie, I've got to do this for dad, and for Maggie, and I've got to do it for myself.
Positions! Get in positions! Go, go! There's four on the left.
I see 'em.
All right! Nobody fires! Nobody fires until I give the order! Fire! Take cover! Get him out of there! Regroup! Watch your 6:00! Get down! I'm out! All right, everybody stay down.
Aim for that one.
Amplifier's got to be on that one.
Miles! Miles! Miles, wake up! Wake up! Wake up, Miles! Danny! - We've lost power! - We're going down! What, what was I thinking? I never should have let you come here, let you fight.
I had you back.
I-I'm his mother.
I never should have let him out of my sight.
I The two of you, you're you're There's nothing you could have done.
Danny was set on this.
You couldn't stop him.
So the only thing that matters now is to finish what he started.
We're going after Monroe.
We're going to help the rebels.
We're going to do whatever it takes, but we're going to kill him.
You and me.
For Danny.
Sir.
I'm sorry to interrupt you.
There's a visitor.
I'm not seeing anyone.
I think you'll want to see this one.
Why? Because he drove here, sir.
In a cutlass Sierra.
How can I help you, Mr.
Flynn.
Randall Flynn.
And this banged up gentleman here is John Sanborn.
And the question, general, is how can we help you? I love you, Danny.
I love you to the moon and back.
