Between (2015) s02e05 Episode Script
Horatio Rising
I was wondering which gate the extraction point would be at.
Get out of the car.
Slowly.
You're making a very big mistake.
Not as big as the one you just made.
Pop the trunk.
- [trunk opens.]
- Get out.
- [car doors slam.]
- Adam, I'm your last hope.
Now, you need to let me go and get help, or everyone in Pretty Lake is gonna die.
Do you want that on your head? Really? Is that what they pay you to think up? You and I both know that if you left with all that research, Horatio would have exactly what they need.
And me and everyone else, this whole town, would be finished.
So please, get in the damn trunk.
Come on.
[Adam.]
You need to pull over.
I don't feel so great.
[driver.]
We're almost there.
[Adam groans.]
Pull over or I'm gonna puke.
My orders are not to stop before we get you to decontamination, sir.
You need to pull over, or I'm gonna take this mask off.
Okay.
Okay.
[retching.]
Get out of the car, now! Put your hands up.
Keep your hands up.
Come on.
Take these cuffs now.
Come on.
You're gonna cuff yourself to that tree right now.
Come on.
Okay, good.
Thank you.
[groaning softly.]
[Tracey.]
You saw the wound.
When someone loses that much blood, it's only a matter of time.
I don't know, Trace.
Look at this.
When did you last change these? Like, two hours ago, I I think.
Okay, well, shouldn't they be soaked through? The bleeding stopped.
Look, it's starting to heal.
Her pulse is still strong.
Whatever's in Liam's cure is keeping her alive.
[scoffs.]
That that's impossible.
No, the same way it cured my tumor.
Plus, she's a half day past 22.
You know what that means.
- This is the proof Liam was promising.
- Listen to you.
Liam's not even here! He's coming back.
[scoffing.]
You really believe that he's coming back to help us? Liam's gone, Wiley.
He walked away and left us for dead, like everyone else.
I'm sorry.
[sighs.]
It's not your fault.
If there's anyone to blame for all this mess, it's Mark.
- [sighs.]
- Mark? Why? He's the one who killed Eric.
Accidentally, if you believe that.
No, who's Eric? You know, Renee's kid brother, Eric? [piano music.]
Doesn't look like you got much sleep last night.
[sighs.]
You know, I was convinced it was Harrison who shot Renee.
But it wasn't, was it? No.
[Mark sighs heavily.]
When I was 17 My dad used to beat the crap out of my mom and me.
If there ever was anyone who deserved to die, it was him.
Thing is, I I knew that unless I did something he wouldn't stop.
Sure, I could leave.
But then, what would happen to my mother? My younger sister? Then one night my dad came home shit-faced.
He started hitting my mom.
I tried to get in there break it up, and he just started hitting me.
Daring me to hit him back.
Then he got his gun.
Stuck it right in my face just to get a reaction.
I remember thinking, "He's actually going to kill me.
" Then I snapped.
[sighing.]
I shot him.
You killed him? I just grabbed that gun so fast, and pulled that trigger before I could even think.
It was just rage.
Instinct.
But as soon as I did it I wanted nothing more than just to take it back.
All it did was turn me into the person that my father believed I was all along.
[crying.]
I didn't mean to do it, either.
If I could, I would take it back.
[sniffling.]
[softly.]
I know.
[sighs.]
I was at the clinic, Franny.
Renee is still alive.
She is? Is she gonna be okay? She's holding on.
For now.
[sniffs.]
[Pat.]
Kind of weird, don't you think? Yeah, weren't there cuts all over my face yesterday? Maybe you're losing your mind.
All those drugs, stress you've been under guilt.
It's easy to slide into batshit.
Anything can make a person go crazy.
[chuckles.]
Ironic, isn't it? You survive all this just to go nuts? [music playing quietly.]
[laptop beeps.]
[chuckles.]
You've gotta be kidding.
Jonesie! [doorbell jingles.]
[Franny.]
How's she doing? Better, I think.
Can I talk to her? Yeah, of course.
[whispers.]
I'm sorry.
I'm gonna say a prayer for you.
- [cell phone vibrating.]
- [gasps.]
Hello? Liam? Liam, are you there? Who is this? Where's Liam? Who is this? [man.]
Where's Liam Cullen? Who are you? [beeps.]
[Adam.]
We did everything the government told us.
We even burned the bodies of our loved ones.
They lied to us.
They sent in troops to kill us.
- They want us dead.
- [clicks keypad.]
I'm not contagious.
If I'd have known you were from Pretty Lake, I never would have let you come here.
I I thought you were still in Franklin.
I moved there two years ago.
Pretty Lake.
It's, like, every conspiracy freak's wet dream.
Except, I prefer my updates online, thank you.
Get out of here, now! The fact is, if I was contagious, you'd already be exposed.
Oh, my God! I'm gonna bile out.
Dead at 23.
The only thing I did in life was own a cat.
- I'm not contagious.
- Prove it! - You have to trust me.
- Trust you? I don't trust anyone.
Why would I start now? Dexter Crane, please.
[line ringing.]
[Dexter.]
Minister Miller.
[Miller.]
You're late.
I was expecting your call 15 minutes ago.
What is going on with the extraction? There's been a small glitch.
We're still confirming our scientist made it out.
What is the difficulty? He gets into a van, he gets out.
An extension was already granted.
And you were warned.
Any further complications, and I would handle things my way.
Because with my way, there will be no mistakes.
If extreme measures are taken, it would hamstring our efforts to find a cure, right when we are so close.
May I remind you, Mister Crane, at your urging, I have already made a series of choices I regret.
That ends now! [sighs.]
[Brooks.]
Yes, Mister Crane? Find out what the hell happened to Liam Cullen! Um, right away, sir.
Okay, "41.
20 Negative 65.
14 " What does that mean? It's a geolocation.
If something happened to Liam this is the best place to start looking.
[sighs.]
Can you watch her? [Adam.]
Come on, Daisy.
Get me the proof that Horatio and the government are working together.
That's all I need.
I promise.
No way.
I got one rule.
I don't do government secrets.
Not anymore, okay? And You do it! [chuckles.]
Oh, I see.
You already tried, didn't you? Please, I need your help.
What's in it for me? Oh, I don't know, a chance to save innocent lives? That's right up there with flossing as things I should be doing.
Pretty Lake's not my problem.
Really? You march for PETA, protest fracking and own a bike shop because of carbon emissions, but you don't have a problem watching hundreds of innocent kids die? You're the only one who can do this.
You know it.
I know it.
- I hate it when you do that.
- What? Remind me of my wasted genius.
Fine, I'll help.
Thank you.
[car approaching.]
What happened? Where's Liam Cullen? I took the wrong guy.
By the time I realized it, it was too late.
That's unfortunate.
I'm sorry.
[typing.]
Thirty-seven character password? Interesting.
Why? It seems so last year.
Maybe they're getting lazy.
[typing.]
[beeps.]
[sighs.]
This is gonna take some time.
- I don't have a lot of time.
- Yeah, I sort of figured you'd say that.
[typing.]
[Adam.]
I have my laptop.
Do you need help? This is a little beyond your pay grade.
Or else, why would you wreck my life by getting me involved in this? [typing.]
- [beeps.]
- [Daisy sighs.]
Do you know how to fix bikes? Of course not.
Why would you ask me that? It's too bad.
It would stop you from hovering, which is really not helping my creative process.
- [computer beeps.]
- Okay.
You pacing is actually worse.
Come hover.
[computer beeps.]
What are these idiots trying to do? Uh, sir, you might want to see this.
- [beeps.]
- [man.]
We have a breach.
- How bad is it? - I'm tracking it down right now.
- Do I make the call? - Yeah, definitely.
Okay, here.
I think this is what you're looking for.
That's exactly what I'm looking for.
Thank you.
You're a genius.
[chuckles.]
Pretty much.
Make a copy of the emails between Minister Miller and Dexter Crane.
And anything involving Liam Cullen.
Oh, do you want me to take some dictation while I'm at it? [Adam.]
That'd be nice.
Wow.
This is really scary stuff.
Try living it.
Yo, Rick.
No, man.
No potatoes today.
You know how to make stew? Yeah, but there won't be enough for everyone.
So? Are you sure nothing was taken? No, we can't be sure of anything.
And this is the location the hack was coming from? - Yeah.
- Thanks.
That's all for now.
[beeps.]
[line ringing.]
- [Brooks.]
Yes.
- Are you downtown? - Yeah.
- [Dexter.]
I want you to go to an address.
I'm looking for someone that may be launching a cyberattack.
I'll send you the details.
Got it.
Hello, Minister Miller.
Can you come in here, please? We have a problem.
You're not going to want to draw attention to yourself.
Not right now.
I'd like to speak with you in private.
Do Clarence Jones and Horatio Pharmaceuticals - mean anything to you? - [door opens.]
[man.]
Yes, Minister, is there something wrong? Uh, it's all right.
I have it under control.
False alarm.
It's just a video my grandkids sent.
Yes, ma'am.
[door closes.]
What is this about? Open the emails I just sent.
It's all in there.
Everything that proves that the government under your command is behind everything that happened in Pretty Lake.
And that you are directly responsible for the murder of thousands of people.
What do you want? I want you to tell the world what you've done and what you should have done in the first place.
Save Pretty Lake.
That's not gonna happen.
Why not? It's over.
We have done everything we could.
I've ordered the extermination of everyone in Pretty Lake.
Then I blow the whistle on everything the government has done.
And you think, honestly, that I should fear that more than exposing the entire world to this virus? The only saving grace is that the disease is contained.
It means we can wipe it off the face of the earth.
The disease? Or the population of Pretty Lake? They're one and the same.
It's the only solution.
What about the clinical trials? Testing's almost done.
Unfortunately, that is a pipe dream.
I have no choice.
[laptop closes.]
[sighs.]
I'm sorry.
We have to stop them.
[banging.]
[Liam muffled.]
Help! Help! What the hell? - [banging continues.]
- Help! Please! - Oh, my God.
- [Liam gasping.]
Liam.
Are are you okay? What happened? Who did this to you? Adam.
He He got out.
[breathing heavily.]
Come on, come on.
[Daisy.]
Do you think she's bluffing? No.
If she was bluffing, she'd have tried to stop me from releasing the information.
If we have no power over the government, we go public.
[Daisy.]
Easy on the "we".
[stammers.]
Okay, if Miller doesn't care if she's exposed, you've lost your leverage.
And any news outlet would take days to verify a story like this.
So by then, it's gonna be too late.
So what? I just let everyone die? No.
We go to Horatio.
Whoa! Hold on.
They had enough juice to get Liam inside Pretty Lake for the drug trials, which means they have influence deep inside the government.
And Horatio has as much to lose as anyone else.
Maybe they can use some of their greed for good.
- [scoffs.]
- I need your phone.
- I need your phone.
- [scoffs.]
I am so happy you reached out to me after so long.
Thanks.
[Daisy scoffs.]
[breath trembling.]
You know, I'm so sorry.
I should've told Adam.
He would have listened to me if I would've just No.
No, no, he He wouldn't have.
Why not? Because he knew.
He knew that once I left Pretty Lake you were all as good as dead.
You lost your human shield.
I don't understand.
We can leave.
Your experiments worked.
Renee survived past 22.
She did? [sighs.]
Damn it! Then Adam has all of it.
- [stammers.]
What? - My my research.
If Horatio gets a hold of that information all the logs I did on Renee that I inputted before I left they have everything they need to move forward.
He has no idea what he is up against.
So no one's coming to help us, are they? It was only the drug trials that mattered.
All along.
Winning the pharmaceutical lottery.
I did everything in my power to try to change their minds.
I swear to God.
Oh, don't bullshit me! None of this was to help us.
No! It it was! Look, I thought if I could get some some concrete evidence, that they would eventually let you go.
But they won't, will they? No.
No, they had already made up their minds.
You were all gonna die.
[scoffs.]
Hmm.
So then, you return as the hero who found the cure, Horatio makes millions off your work, and we all die.
That's it? - [cell phone vibrating.]
- That's probably for you.
Hello? [Sighs.]
[Adam.]
I was kind of hoping you would have frozen to death.
Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
How long did it take her to find you? Twelve cold hours.
You know, I almost died.
Let me speak to her.
It's Adam.
Hey.
I'm sorry.
I thought the door was locked.
Uh, we're closed.
Police business.
We have reports of suspicious online activity coming from this location.
Is that right? What kind? Corporate espionage.
Uh, you're kidding, right? Uh, this is a bike shop.
We fix bikes.
We're taking these reports seriously.
Some sort of violent anarchist group is causing huge problems.
Their sabotage could end up costing millions.
Like I said, we fix bikes.
Ah, so you won't mind if I have a look at your computer? Actually, I would mind very much.
I know my rights.
So why don't you come back here with a warrant, and I'd be more than happy to show you anything you're legally entitled to look at.
As a matter of fact, I already have a warrant.
[Brooks grunts.]
[gunshot.]
[siren wailing.]
[door closes.]
I need you to track someone, stat.
Daisy Liu.
Yeah.
Runs a bike shop downtown.
[Wiley.]
Yeah, Liam told me everything.
- I'm so sorry for doubting you.
- It's okay.
It doesn't matter.
Do you have a gun with you? If yes, answer, "I agree with you, Adam.
" I agree with you, Adam.
Can you get out of the car? Yeah.
[Stammers.]
Yeah, okay.
Hey, hey, hold on.
- [Wiley.]
Don't touch me! - Wiley.
Wiley? Yeah, I I've got the gun on him.
Adam, Renee lived, okay? She passed 22.
Liam's cure worked.
- You're sure? - Yes.
Adam, what's going on? Where are you? Is somebody coming for us? What's happening? I don't know, okay? I'm working on a plan to get everyone out.
Okay, how? Just get Jason and inoculate as many people as you can.
Bring everyone to the same gate you found Liam at.
Be there at 3:00 p.
m.
If anything changes, I'll call.
Okay? - Okay, what about Liam? - We might still need him.
Shoot him if he doesn't cooperate.
3:00 p.
m.
, okay? Yeah, okay.
Please, put down the gun.
I'm here to help you.
You've helped enough.
[sighing.]
You know this this really isn't necessary.
- Get your back against the post.
- [sighs.]
Against the post! Look, we know the cure works now, okay? - We have to get to the others.
- Hands behind your back! What the hell did Adam say to you? Please.
Just think about your son.
Shut up.
You know, if you leave me in here, I'll die without my injections.
You've been injected with the cure.
You're immune.
I saved your life! Mmm.
Hey! What's this all about? What are you doing, man? I'm eating.
You know what I'm talking about.
Special meals? Just for you? You want something different, go ahead.
We brought in all the food from Renee's container.
It's not up to me to say how it's distributed.
We don't operate like this.
Well, we do now.
Hey! What happened? Where's Renee? [sighs.]
I'm so sorry, Wiley.
I left for a minute to check on the kids, and when I came back she was gone.
All the vials, the cure.
They're gone, too.
[line ringing.]
[cell phone ringing.]
- Hello? - Mr.
Crane I'd like to talk to you about Liam Cullen.
Who is this? - Adam Jones.
- [chuckles.]
I knew your father.
And of course, Liam told me about meeting you.
- Where is he? - I don't know.
I have all of Liam's research.
As I'm sure you can understand, I would like to get that information back.
The implications for public health are potentially enormous.
So I've heard.
I'd be willing to compensate you for your trouble.
It's not money I'm after.
I want you to stop the extermination of everyone in Pretty Lake and extract anyone who has been inoculated.
I think you've been badly misinformed.
The decision is the government's.
We're bystanders as much as you are.
Don't try to play me.
The government needs you.
They'll listen to you.
I presented my case to Minister Miller.
She's made up her mind.
- Change it.
- Impossible.
She's decided to stop the disease no matter what it takes.
I'll have you know, Mr.
Crane, I'm not afraid to release Liam's information, which includes some pretty ugly things about Horatio, and its role in Pretty Lake.
We've done nothing wrong.
- We were hired to work on a cure - [computer beeping.]
and we've made every good faith effort to do so.
[line disconnects.]
Daisy? Daisy? [cell phone vibrates.]
[Wiley sighs.]
She took it all.
She took everything! Wiley, calm down.
Talk to me.
No, I'm not gonna calm down! I have to get it back.
I have to find her.
- Why? - [Wiley sighs.]
Because Adam's trying to get us all out! We're supposed to get to the gate at 3:00 p.
m.
, but only the people who are vaccinated.
I have to get the cure and give it to Jason.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Nice meeting place.
I've been told I have a flair for the theatrical.
Listen, Dexter wouldn't bite.
He won't play ball.
Then, it's over? No.
It'll take a little more pressure.
I need you to get back into their systems.
I can't do this anymore, Adam.
These people are willing to kill to keep the cover-up intact.
- So? We're smarter than they are.
- Really? It did not feel that way when some guy pulled a gun on me in my shop and tried to kill me.
I underestimated who we were dealing with.
Nobody has ever been able to track me before, and these guys did it in minutes.
I'm out.
You can't just leave.
I'm sorry.
This isn't my battle.
Daisy [Renee.]
Don't bother.
Let's just say shooting me won't do you any good.
But this will.
- What is it? - A miracle.
Life itself.
I'm 22 and I'm still alive.
I survived a gunshot wound.
You help me get this place back, and I'll give you one.
[Miller.]
How long before the troops are ready? [man.]
Inoculations will be completed by tomorrow afternoon, ma'am.
Please tell me when the operation begins.
[Mark.]
It's too dangerous.
We should draw Renee out.
I'll pick her off from the hills.
And then what? We start a war? We don't have time.
Look, Mark's got a point.
I mean, why not? If we can surround the place, get everybody at all angles, guns up, we'll have the upper hand.
These people, they're not just gonna hand you back the vials, Wiley.
- They aren't wired like that.
- Well, we're not attacking them.
They killed Gord.
They stole from us.
Yes, but we're outnumbered and we're outgunned.
You've seen the place.
They live in a fortress.
And even if we did attack, we'd still have no idea where she hid the vials.
And then, if she's already used 'em, it'd all be for nothing.
We'd be killing innocent people.
Look, we saved Renee's life.
I'm gonna talk to her.
No guns, no violence.
Just two people.
And if that doesn't work, I don't know.
We still have time to figure out a plan B.
But everything's telling me we have to give humanity a shot first.
Maybe this isn't your call, Wiley.
Maybe we've got a say in this, too.
Stacey and I, we still need that injection.
- I'm coming with you.
- No, Mark.
We cannot be a threat.
- We need to do this my way.
- She's right.
- [Stacey scoffs.]
- [Wiley.]
Chuck comes with me.
If things go badly, he'll get Jason.
Tracey, find Franny and Harrison and make sure they're at the orphanage - when we get back.
- [Chuck.]
All right.
- [Troy.]
Ow! - [Lamar.]
Suck it up, Troy.
We're gonna have some visitors when they realize what's missing.
- You okay? - Yeah, fine.
No I'm not.
How can we leave these kids? There aren't enough vials, they can't come with us.
They'll die without us, Stacey.
[sighs.]
We're gonna die anyway.
[sighing.]
I mean Come on, Trace you've seen how much food's left.
Maybe.
Or maybe the government will send more.
I know all the arguments for leaving, okay? It makes sense.
But why does it feel like the wrong choice? You heard what Wiley said.
We have one chance to get to the extraction point.
Maybe we can get some help from outside, send somebody back in for the kids? [scoffs.]
Do you really think that's gonna happen? No one was able to help us.
I'm just worried that if we do get out, I'm not gonna be able to live past knowing that we left them behind.
You don't have a choice.
We don't have a choice.
We always have a choice.
[laptop beeps.]
[Liam.]
My name is Liam Cullen.
I work for Horatio Pharmaceuticals.
Under the direct supervision of the CEO, Dexter Crane I have been working on a population control experiment.
[Renee.]
Ronnie.
Good to see you again.
Oh, shit.
[sniffs.]
You're just going to let her walk in here like that? - After what she did to you? - She's in charge now.
Oh, wait, wait.
Does that mean you want your room back now? Or are you still into sharing? Because, you know, I might be into that, too.
Nah.
I wouldn't want to deprive you of your own personal space.
Take him to lockup.
[Harrison.]
Where are they? [Franny.]
Relax, it's only been an hour.
Sit down and read a book.
I can't.
I have some condition.
I can't concentrate.
Sure explains a lot.
You know what I'm really looking forward to when we get out? Water parks.
My best guess is this time of year, you're gonna get frostbite on your ass from the water slide.
No kidding.
- [chuckles.]
- I mean in the summer.
Gord went once for a school trip.
My dad never took me.
Too busy with the farm.
They're all right.
It's no big deal.
Probably not.
It seems like a stupid thing to wish for.
But of all the things that keep me going, a water park sits high on the list.
What, um what do you think is going to happen to us when we get out of here? What do you mean? Where are we gonna go? Who are we gonna live with? I guess I can go live with my aunt.
- Do you like her? - I'm not sure.
I only met her once.
I don't, uh have any relatives.
Everyone has relatives.
I don't.
Me and Sam were the only ones left.
I guess they're just gonna send me to some crappy foster home or something like that.
Well, you can come live with me.
Really? Absolutely.
[chuckles.]
[Chuck.]
Are you absolutely sure this is how you want to do this? I can't see any other way to get the vials.
If I'm not back in 25 minutes, leave.
Don't miss your chance to get out of Pretty Lake.
[sighs.]
[Dexter.]
Okay, Adam, you have my full attention.
My guess is whoever you sent to find me is a little pissed off right now, aren't they? You're smart.
You've proven that.
Now get to the point.
I want you to stop the extermination in Pretty Lake.
Get the cure to them as soon as possible and extract anyone who's been injected immediately.
Now those with the cure maybe I can get them out.
I'm not so sure about the rest of Pretty Lake.
Not good enough.
I don't believe you.
Show me proof that you actually have Liam's research, and I'll see what I can do.
The video evidence is proof enough.
Liam had a gun pointed at his head.
I suspect he would have said anything that you wanted him to.
You're going to have to do better than that.
Like what? If you want my help, you're going to have to give me all of Liam's research.
No way.
Then I lose any leverage I have.
Sorry.
That's the only way I'll do business with you.
I had a feeling you'd be back.
I need the vials back.
- [silenced gunshots.]
- [gasps.]
[Renee.]
I've seen what they're capable of.
They're mine now.
I'm not giving them away.
We saved your life.
You'd be dead right now if it wasn't for us.
The way I see it, you needed me for proof.
If I wasn't turning 22, you wouldn't have even bothered with me.
So save me the sob story.
You had a brother, right? Yeah, and he's dead.
I know.
I'm sorry.
If he weren't, would you give him an injection? - He'd be the first person.
- Okay, well, I got a son.
His name is Jason.
He's a few weeks old.
This is for him.
Think about that.
There are people back in town who want to blow this place up.
But I wanted to do things differently.
That's why I came here alone.
That's why I'm unarmed.
No guns, okay? I just need five vials.
Okay, if you don't want to give me the vials and I don't return back, then you can't say I didn't warn you.
- Is that a threat? - You can take it however you want.
[sighs.]
All right.
I'll give you three.
- I need five.
- Not gonna happen.
Say another word and the deal is off the table.
- Okay.
- Wait here.
[Troy.]
Renee! Found this one up in the hills.
He had a scope on us, ready to shoot.
Renee, I swear to God, I had nothing to do Trying to finish me off for good, huh? I guess I read you wrong.
- Please, Renee, I mean it - Shut up! Lock both of them up.
[Brooks.]
Don't even think about running or I will shoot you in the back.
Adam Jones, finally we meet in person.
This is the part when you hand over all of Liam's research.
Get out of the car.
Slowly.
You're making a very big mistake.
Not as big as the one you just made.
Pop the trunk.
- [trunk opens.]
- Get out.
- [car doors slam.]
- Adam, I'm your last hope.
Now, you need to let me go and get help, or everyone in Pretty Lake is gonna die.
Do you want that on your head? Really? Is that what they pay you to think up? You and I both know that if you left with all that research, Horatio would have exactly what they need.
And me and everyone else, this whole town, would be finished.
So please, get in the damn trunk.
Come on.
[Adam.]
You need to pull over.
I don't feel so great.
[driver.]
We're almost there.
[Adam groans.]
Pull over or I'm gonna puke.
My orders are not to stop before we get you to decontamination, sir.
You need to pull over, or I'm gonna take this mask off.
Okay.
Okay.
[retching.]
Get out of the car, now! Put your hands up.
Keep your hands up.
Come on.
Take these cuffs now.
Come on.
You're gonna cuff yourself to that tree right now.
Come on.
Okay, good.
Thank you.
[groaning softly.]
[Tracey.]
You saw the wound.
When someone loses that much blood, it's only a matter of time.
I don't know, Trace.
Look at this.
When did you last change these? Like, two hours ago, I I think.
Okay, well, shouldn't they be soaked through? The bleeding stopped.
Look, it's starting to heal.
Her pulse is still strong.
Whatever's in Liam's cure is keeping her alive.
[scoffs.]
That that's impossible.
No, the same way it cured my tumor.
Plus, she's a half day past 22.
You know what that means.
- This is the proof Liam was promising.
- Listen to you.
Liam's not even here! He's coming back.
[scoffing.]
You really believe that he's coming back to help us? Liam's gone, Wiley.
He walked away and left us for dead, like everyone else.
I'm sorry.
[sighs.]
It's not your fault.
If there's anyone to blame for all this mess, it's Mark.
- [sighs.]
- Mark? Why? He's the one who killed Eric.
Accidentally, if you believe that.
No, who's Eric? You know, Renee's kid brother, Eric? [piano music.]
Doesn't look like you got much sleep last night.
[sighs.]
You know, I was convinced it was Harrison who shot Renee.
But it wasn't, was it? No.
[Mark sighs heavily.]
When I was 17 My dad used to beat the crap out of my mom and me.
If there ever was anyone who deserved to die, it was him.
Thing is, I I knew that unless I did something he wouldn't stop.
Sure, I could leave.
But then, what would happen to my mother? My younger sister? Then one night my dad came home shit-faced.
He started hitting my mom.
I tried to get in there break it up, and he just started hitting me.
Daring me to hit him back.
Then he got his gun.
Stuck it right in my face just to get a reaction.
I remember thinking, "He's actually going to kill me.
" Then I snapped.
[sighing.]
I shot him.
You killed him? I just grabbed that gun so fast, and pulled that trigger before I could even think.
It was just rage.
Instinct.
But as soon as I did it I wanted nothing more than just to take it back.
All it did was turn me into the person that my father believed I was all along.
[crying.]
I didn't mean to do it, either.
If I could, I would take it back.
[sniffling.]
[softly.]
I know.
[sighs.]
I was at the clinic, Franny.
Renee is still alive.
She is? Is she gonna be okay? She's holding on.
For now.
[sniffs.]
[Pat.]
Kind of weird, don't you think? Yeah, weren't there cuts all over my face yesterday? Maybe you're losing your mind.
All those drugs, stress you've been under guilt.
It's easy to slide into batshit.
Anything can make a person go crazy.
[chuckles.]
Ironic, isn't it? You survive all this just to go nuts? [music playing quietly.]
[laptop beeps.]
[chuckles.]
You've gotta be kidding.
Jonesie! [doorbell jingles.]
[Franny.]
How's she doing? Better, I think.
Can I talk to her? Yeah, of course.
[whispers.]
I'm sorry.
I'm gonna say a prayer for you.
- [cell phone vibrating.]
- [gasps.]
Hello? Liam? Liam, are you there? Who is this? Where's Liam? Who is this? [man.]
Where's Liam Cullen? Who are you? [beeps.]
[Adam.]
We did everything the government told us.
We even burned the bodies of our loved ones.
They lied to us.
They sent in troops to kill us.
- They want us dead.
- [clicks keypad.]
I'm not contagious.
If I'd have known you were from Pretty Lake, I never would have let you come here.
I I thought you were still in Franklin.
I moved there two years ago.
Pretty Lake.
It's, like, every conspiracy freak's wet dream.
Except, I prefer my updates online, thank you.
Get out of here, now! The fact is, if I was contagious, you'd already be exposed.
Oh, my God! I'm gonna bile out.
Dead at 23.
The only thing I did in life was own a cat.
- I'm not contagious.
- Prove it! - You have to trust me.
- Trust you? I don't trust anyone.
Why would I start now? Dexter Crane, please.
[line ringing.]
[Dexter.]
Minister Miller.
[Miller.]
You're late.
I was expecting your call 15 minutes ago.
What is going on with the extraction? There's been a small glitch.
We're still confirming our scientist made it out.
What is the difficulty? He gets into a van, he gets out.
An extension was already granted.
And you were warned.
Any further complications, and I would handle things my way.
Because with my way, there will be no mistakes.
If extreme measures are taken, it would hamstring our efforts to find a cure, right when we are so close.
May I remind you, Mister Crane, at your urging, I have already made a series of choices I regret.
That ends now! [sighs.]
[Brooks.]
Yes, Mister Crane? Find out what the hell happened to Liam Cullen! Um, right away, sir.
Okay, "41.
20 Negative 65.
14 " What does that mean? It's a geolocation.
If something happened to Liam this is the best place to start looking.
[sighs.]
Can you watch her? [Adam.]
Come on, Daisy.
Get me the proof that Horatio and the government are working together.
That's all I need.
I promise.
No way.
I got one rule.
I don't do government secrets.
Not anymore, okay? And You do it! [chuckles.]
Oh, I see.
You already tried, didn't you? Please, I need your help.
What's in it for me? Oh, I don't know, a chance to save innocent lives? That's right up there with flossing as things I should be doing.
Pretty Lake's not my problem.
Really? You march for PETA, protest fracking and own a bike shop because of carbon emissions, but you don't have a problem watching hundreds of innocent kids die? You're the only one who can do this.
You know it.
I know it.
- I hate it when you do that.
- What? Remind me of my wasted genius.
Fine, I'll help.
Thank you.
[car approaching.]
What happened? Where's Liam Cullen? I took the wrong guy.
By the time I realized it, it was too late.
That's unfortunate.
I'm sorry.
[typing.]
Thirty-seven character password? Interesting.
Why? It seems so last year.
Maybe they're getting lazy.
[typing.]
[beeps.]
[sighs.]
This is gonna take some time.
- I don't have a lot of time.
- Yeah, I sort of figured you'd say that.
[typing.]
[Adam.]
I have my laptop.
Do you need help? This is a little beyond your pay grade.
Or else, why would you wreck my life by getting me involved in this? [typing.]
- [beeps.]
- [Daisy sighs.]
Do you know how to fix bikes? Of course not.
Why would you ask me that? It's too bad.
It would stop you from hovering, which is really not helping my creative process.
- [computer beeps.]
- Okay.
You pacing is actually worse.
Come hover.
[computer beeps.]
What are these idiots trying to do? Uh, sir, you might want to see this.
- [beeps.]
- [man.]
We have a breach.
- How bad is it? - I'm tracking it down right now.
- Do I make the call? - Yeah, definitely.
Okay, here.
I think this is what you're looking for.
That's exactly what I'm looking for.
Thank you.
You're a genius.
[chuckles.]
Pretty much.
Make a copy of the emails between Minister Miller and Dexter Crane.
And anything involving Liam Cullen.
Oh, do you want me to take some dictation while I'm at it? [Adam.]
That'd be nice.
Wow.
This is really scary stuff.
Try living it.
Yo, Rick.
No, man.
No potatoes today.
You know how to make stew? Yeah, but there won't be enough for everyone.
So? Are you sure nothing was taken? No, we can't be sure of anything.
And this is the location the hack was coming from? - Yeah.
- Thanks.
That's all for now.
[beeps.]
[line ringing.]
- [Brooks.]
Yes.
- Are you downtown? - Yeah.
- [Dexter.]
I want you to go to an address.
I'm looking for someone that may be launching a cyberattack.
I'll send you the details.
Got it.
Hello, Minister Miller.
Can you come in here, please? We have a problem.
You're not going to want to draw attention to yourself.
Not right now.
I'd like to speak with you in private.
Do Clarence Jones and Horatio Pharmaceuticals - mean anything to you? - [door opens.]
[man.]
Yes, Minister, is there something wrong? Uh, it's all right.
I have it under control.
False alarm.
It's just a video my grandkids sent.
Yes, ma'am.
[door closes.]
What is this about? Open the emails I just sent.
It's all in there.
Everything that proves that the government under your command is behind everything that happened in Pretty Lake.
And that you are directly responsible for the murder of thousands of people.
What do you want? I want you to tell the world what you've done and what you should have done in the first place.
Save Pretty Lake.
That's not gonna happen.
Why not? It's over.
We have done everything we could.
I've ordered the extermination of everyone in Pretty Lake.
Then I blow the whistle on everything the government has done.
And you think, honestly, that I should fear that more than exposing the entire world to this virus? The only saving grace is that the disease is contained.
It means we can wipe it off the face of the earth.
The disease? Or the population of Pretty Lake? They're one and the same.
It's the only solution.
What about the clinical trials? Testing's almost done.
Unfortunately, that is a pipe dream.
I have no choice.
[laptop closes.]
[sighs.]
I'm sorry.
We have to stop them.
[banging.]
[Liam muffled.]
Help! Help! What the hell? - [banging continues.]
- Help! Please! - Oh, my God.
- [Liam gasping.]
Liam.
Are are you okay? What happened? Who did this to you? Adam.
He He got out.
[breathing heavily.]
Come on, come on.
[Daisy.]
Do you think she's bluffing? No.
If she was bluffing, she'd have tried to stop me from releasing the information.
If we have no power over the government, we go public.
[Daisy.]
Easy on the "we".
[stammers.]
Okay, if Miller doesn't care if she's exposed, you've lost your leverage.
And any news outlet would take days to verify a story like this.
So by then, it's gonna be too late.
So what? I just let everyone die? No.
We go to Horatio.
Whoa! Hold on.
They had enough juice to get Liam inside Pretty Lake for the drug trials, which means they have influence deep inside the government.
And Horatio has as much to lose as anyone else.
Maybe they can use some of their greed for good.
- [scoffs.]
- I need your phone.
- I need your phone.
- [scoffs.]
I am so happy you reached out to me after so long.
Thanks.
[Daisy scoffs.]
[breath trembling.]
You know, I'm so sorry.
I should've told Adam.
He would have listened to me if I would've just No.
No, no, he He wouldn't have.
Why not? Because he knew.
He knew that once I left Pretty Lake you were all as good as dead.
You lost your human shield.
I don't understand.
We can leave.
Your experiments worked.
Renee survived past 22.
She did? [sighs.]
Damn it! Then Adam has all of it.
- [stammers.]
What? - My my research.
If Horatio gets a hold of that information all the logs I did on Renee that I inputted before I left they have everything they need to move forward.
He has no idea what he is up against.
So no one's coming to help us, are they? It was only the drug trials that mattered.
All along.
Winning the pharmaceutical lottery.
I did everything in my power to try to change their minds.
I swear to God.
Oh, don't bullshit me! None of this was to help us.
No! It it was! Look, I thought if I could get some some concrete evidence, that they would eventually let you go.
But they won't, will they? No.
No, they had already made up their minds.
You were all gonna die.
[scoffs.]
Hmm.
So then, you return as the hero who found the cure, Horatio makes millions off your work, and we all die.
That's it? - [cell phone vibrating.]
- That's probably for you.
Hello? [Sighs.]
[Adam.]
I was kind of hoping you would have frozen to death.
Well, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
How long did it take her to find you? Twelve cold hours.
You know, I almost died.
Let me speak to her.
It's Adam.
Hey.
I'm sorry.
I thought the door was locked.
Uh, we're closed.
Police business.
We have reports of suspicious online activity coming from this location.
Is that right? What kind? Corporate espionage.
Uh, you're kidding, right? Uh, this is a bike shop.
We fix bikes.
We're taking these reports seriously.
Some sort of violent anarchist group is causing huge problems.
Their sabotage could end up costing millions.
Like I said, we fix bikes.
Ah, so you won't mind if I have a look at your computer? Actually, I would mind very much.
I know my rights.
So why don't you come back here with a warrant, and I'd be more than happy to show you anything you're legally entitled to look at.
As a matter of fact, I already have a warrant.
[Brooks grunts.]
[gunshot.]
[siren wailing.]
[door closes.]
I need you to track someone, stat.
Daisy Liu.
Yeah.
Runs a bike shop downtown.
[Wiley.]
Yeah, Liam told me everything.
- I'm so sorry for doubting you.
- It's okay.
It doesn't matter.
Do you have a gun with you? If yes, answer, "I agree with you, Adam.
" I agree with you, Adam.
Can you get out of the car? Yeah.
[Stammers.]
Yeah, okay.
Hey, hey, hold on.
- [Wiley.]
Don't touch me! - Wiley.
Wiley? Yeah, I I've got the gun on him.
Adam, Renee lived, okay? She passed 22.
Liam's cure worked.
- You're sure? - Yes.
Adam, what's going on? Where are you? Is somebody coming for us? What's happening? I don't know, okay? I'm working on a plan to get everyone out.
Okay, how? Just get Jason and inoculate as many people as you can.
Bring everyone to the same gate you found Liam at.
Be there at 3:00 p.
m.
If anything changes, I'll call.
Okay? - Okay, what about Liam? - We might still need him.
Shoot him if he doesn't cooperate.
3:00 p.
m.
, okay? Yeah, okay.
Please, put down the gun.
I'm here to help you.
You've helped enough.
[sighing.]
You know this this really isn't necessary.
- Get your back against the post.
- [sighs.]
Against the post! Look, we know the cure works now, okay? - We have to get to the others.
- Hands behind your back! What the hell did Adam say to you? Please.
Just think about your son.
Shut up.
You know, if you leave me in here, I'll die without my injections.
You've been injected with the cure.
You're immune.
I saved your life! Mmm.
Hey! What's this all about? What are you doing, man? I'm eating.
You know what I'm talking about.
Special meals? Just for you? You want something different, go ahead.
We brought in all the food from Renee's container.
It's not up to me to say how it's distributed.
We don't operate like this.
Well, we do now.
Hey! What happened? Where's Renee? [sighs.]
I'm so sorry, Wiley.
I left for a minute to check on the kids, and when I came back she was gone.
All the vials, the cure.
They're gone, too.
[line ringing.]
[cell phone ringing.]
- Hello? - Mr.
Crane I'd like to talk to you about Liam Cullen.
Who is this? - Adam Jones.
- [chuckles.]
I knew your father.
And of course, Liam told me about meeting you.
- Where is he? - I don't know.
I have all of Liam's research.
As I'm sure you can understand, I would like to get that information back.
The implications for public health are potentially enormous.
So I've heard.
I'd be willing to compensate you for your trouble.
It's not money I'm after.
I want you to stop the extermination of everyone in Pretty Lake and extract anyone who has been inoculated.
I think you've been badly misinformed.
The decision is the government's.
We're bystanders as much as you are.
Don't try to play me.
The government needs you.
They'll listen to you.
I presented my case to Minister Miller.
She's made up her mind.
- Change it.
- Impossible.
She's decided to stop the disease no matter what it takes.
I'll have you know, Mr.
Crane, I'm not afraid to release Liam's information, which includes some pretty ugly things about Horatio, and its role in Pretty Lake.
We've done nothing wrong.
- We were hired to work on a cure - [computer beeping.]
and we've made every good faith effort to do so.
[line disconnects.]
Daisy? Daisy? [cell phone vibrates.]
[Wiley sighs.]
She took it all.
She took everything! Wiley, calm down.
Talk to me.
No, I'm not gonna calm down! I have to get it back.
I have to find her.
- Why? - [Wiley sighs.]
Because Adam's trying to get us all out! We're supposed to get to the gate at 3:00 p.
m.
, but only the people who are vaccinated.
I have to get the cure and give it to Jason.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Nice meeting place.
I've been told I have a flair for the theatrical.
Listen, Dexter wouldn't bite.
He won't play ball.
Then, it's over? No.
It'll take a little more pressure.
I need you to get back into their systems.
I can't do this anymore, Adam.
These people are willing to kill to keep the cover-up intact.
- So? We're smarter than they are.
- Really? It did not feel that way when some guy pulled a gun on me in my shop and tried to kill me.
I underestimated who we were dealing with.
Nobody has ever been able to track me before, and these guys did it in minutes.
I'm out.
You can't just leave.
I'm sorry.
This isn't my battle.
Daisy [Renee.]
Don't bother.
Let's just say shooting me won't do you any good.
But this will.
- What is it? - A miracle.
Life itself.
I'm 22 and I'm still alive.
I survived a gunshot wound.
You help me get this place back, and I'll give you one.
[Miller.]
How long before the troops are ready? [man.]
Inoculations will be completed by tomorrow afternoon, ma'am.
Please tell me when the operation begins.
[Mark.]
It's too dangerous.
We should draw Renee out.
I'll pick her off from the hills.
And then what? We start a war? We don't have time.
Look, Mark's got a point.
I mean, why not? If we can surround the place, get everybody at all angles, guns up, we'll have the upper hand.
These people, they're not just gonna hand you back the vials, Wiley.
- They aren't wired like that.
- Well, we're not attacking them.
They killed Gord.
They stole from us.
Yes, but we're outnumbered and we're outgunned.
You've seen the place.
They live in a fortress.
And even if we did attack, we'd still have no idea where she hid the vials.
And then, if she's already used 'em, it'd all be for nothing.
We'd be killing innocent people.
Look, we saved Renee's life.
I'm gonna talk to her.
No guns, no violence.
Just two people.
And if that doesn't work, I don't know.
We still have time to figure out a plan B.
But everything's telling me we have to give humanity a shot first.
Maybe this isn't your call, Wiley.
Maybe we've got a say in this, too.
Stacey and I, we still need that injection.
- I'm coming with you.
- No, Mark.
We cannot be a threat.
- We need to do this my way.
- She's right.
- [Stacey scoffs.]
- [Wiley.]
Chuck comes with me.
If things go badly, he'll get Jason.
Tracey, find Franny and Harrison and make sure they're at the orphanage - when we get back.
- [Chuck.]
All right.
- [Troy.]
Ow! - [Lamar.]
Suck it up, Troy.
We're gonna have some visitors when they realize what's missing.
- You okay? - Yeah, fine.
No I'm not.
How can we leave these kids? There aren't enough vials, they can't come with us.
They'll die without us, Stacey.
[sighs.]
We're gonna die anyway.
[sighing.]
I mean Come on, Trace you've seen how much food's left.
Maybe.
Or maybe the government will send more.
I know all the arguments for leaving, okay? It makes sense.
But why does it feel like the wrong choice? You heard what Wiley said.
We have one chance to get to the extraction point.
Maybe we can get some help from outside, send somebody back in for the kids? [scoffs.]
Do you really think that's gonna happen? No one was able to help us.
I'm just worried that if we do get out, I'm not gonna be able to live past knowing that we left them behind.
You don't have a choice.
We don't have a choice.
We always have a choice.
[laptop beeps.]
[Liam.]
My name is Liam Cullen.
I work for Horatio Pharmaceuticals.
Under the direct supervision of the CEO, Dexter Crane I have been working on a population control experiment.
[Renee.]
Ronnie.
Good to see you again.
Oh, shit.
[sniffs.]
You're just going to let her walk in here like that? - After what she did to you? - She's in charge now.
Oh, wait, wait.
Does that mean you want your room back now? Or are you still into sharing? Because, you know, I might be into that, too.
Nah.
I wouldn't want to deprive you of your own personal space.
Take him to lockup.
[Harrison.]
Where are they? [Franny.]
Relax, it's only been an hour.
Sit down and read a book.
I can't.
I have some condition.
I can't concentrate.
Sure explains a lot.
You know what I'm really looking forward to when we get out? Water parks.
My best guess is this time of year, you're gonna get frostbite on your ass from the water slide.
No kidding.
- [chuckles.]
- I mean in the summer.
Gord went once for a school trip.
My dad never took me.
Too busy with the farm.
They're all right.
It's no big deal.
Probably not.
It seems like a stupid thing to wish for.
But of all the things that keep me going, a water park sits high on the list.
What, um what do you think is going to happen to us when we get out of here? What do you mean? Where are we gonna go? Who are we gonna live with? I guess I can go live with my aunt.
- Do you like her? - I'm not sure.
I only met her once.
I don't, uh have any relatives.
Everyone has relatives.
I don't.
Me and Sam were the only ones left.
I guess they're just gonna send me to some crappy foster home or something like that.
Well, you can come live with me.
Really? Absolutely.
[chuckles.]
[Chuck.]
Are you absolutely sure this is how you want to do this? I can't see any other way to get the vials.
If I'm not back in 25 minutes, leave.
Don't miss your chance to get out of Pretty Lake.
[sighs.]
[Dexter.]
Okay, Adam, you have my full attention.
My guess is whoever you sent to find me is a little pissed off right now, aren't they? You're smart.
You've proven that.
Now get to the point.
I want you to stop the extermination in Pretty Lake.
Get the cure to them as soon as possible and extract anyone who's been injected immediately.
Now those with the cure maybe I can get them out.
I'm not so sure about the rest of Pretty Lake.
Not good enough.
I don't believe you.
Show me proof that you actually have Liam's research, and I'll see what I can do.
The video evidence is proof enough.
Liam had a gun pointed at his head.
I suspect he would have said anything that you wanted him to.
You're going to have to do better than that.
Like what? If you want my help, you're going to have to give me all of Liam's research.
No way.
Then I lose any leverage I have.
Sorry.
That's the only way I'll do business with you.
I had a feeling you'd be back.
I need the vials back.
- [silenced gunshots.]
- [gasps.]
[Renee.]
I've seen what they're capable of.
They're mine now.
I'm not giving them away.
We saved your life.
You'd be dead right now if it wasn't for us.
The way I see it, you needed me for proof.
If I wasn't turning 22, you wouldn't have even bothered with me.
So save me the sob story.
You had a brother, right? Yeah, and he's dead.
I know.
I'm sorry.
If he weren't, would you give him an injection? - He'd be the first person.
- Okay, well, I got a son.
His name is Jason.
He's a few weeks old.
This is for him.
Think about that.
There are people back in town who want to blow this place up.
But I wanted to do things differently.
That's why I came here alone.
That's why I'm unarmed.
No guns, okay? I just need five vials.
Okay, if you don't want to give me the vials and I don't return back, then you can't say I didn't warn you.
- Is that a threat? - You can take it however you want.
[sighs.]
All right.
I'll give you three.
- I need five.
- Not gonna happen.
Say another word and the deal is off the table.
- Okay.
- Wait here.
[Troy.]
Renee! Found this one up in the hills.
He had a scope on us, ready to shoot.
Renee, I swear to God, I had nothing to do Trying to finish me off for good, huh? I guess I read you wrong.
- Please, Renee, I mean it - Shut up! Lock both of them up.
[Brooks.]
Don't even think about running or I will shoot you in the back.
Adam Jones, finally we meet in person.
This is the part when you hand over all of Liam's research.
