Revolution s02e08 Episode Script

Previously on Revolution Why'd you do it? 'Cause we needed him and you asked me to.
You have to tell me where my son is.
One thing at a time.
You set off a bomb in my town.
Your job is to keep our town healthy and compliant, unless you're not a loyal American.
You can't fix him.
It's the training.
You cut him loose, he will kill us both.
You were so worried about trusting my son, when you should've been worried about trusting me.
You said your husband was Patriot high command? What do you want? Where is the old ball and chain? I'd like to pick your brain about the nanotech.
He's already onto the bodies.
Aaron, it's only a matter of time before Horn is onto you.
So where are they? I did not want to be right about this.
He's one of them.
We got to get Aaron out of here.
I'm Aaron Pittman! I'll come quietly! Just leave her alone! Aaron, you have got to tell me how you do that.
You don't have to be afraid of him, but it's not him you're afraid of, is it? Why don't you tell me what's going on, please? Where's Horn? Where's Horn? I haven't seen the son of a bitch in a while, but I'm pretty sure you know where he's holed up.
He's working.
Always working.
Working where? You have no idea who you're dealing with.
Is that right? Horn's looking for you.
He's got men everywhere looking for you and her and Pittman.
and once he finds you know what he's gonna do? Of course I do.
That's why I'm gonna find him first.
So let's try this one more time.
Where is he? I know, I know.
The bombing rocked all of us.
It was a tragedy and an act of cowardice, plain and simple.
And, folks We now know who was behind the bombing the man who stood amongst us and called himself Stu Redman.
But his real name is Miles Matheson.
You may have heard of him General Miles Matheson of the Monroe Republic.
Now, we have reason to believe he was acting in retaliation for the execution of his former leader Sebastian Monroe, and he didn't act alone.
He had an accomplice Aaron Pittman.
Uh, yeah.
Matheson and Pittman pulled the wool over our eyes, yours and mine.
My daughter also came to town with them.
She was troubled psychologically.
Some of you know that.
She had nothing to do with any of this.
She and my granddaughter are victims.
They were manipulated by these men.
So, please, if you see them, report it to a U.
S.
officer.
I'm begging you, help me find them.
I just want my family safe.
They said they'd meet us here, they'll meet us here.
Well, I got news for you, stay puft.
There might have been a change of plan.
What change of plan? In that this plan has gone to hell.
Those Patriot sons of bitches were waiting for you.
And we don't know what happened.
We don't know if Miles can even get out of town or if he's still alive.
We're gonna wait right here like Miles told us to.
Whoa, okay, okay.
Just don't light me on fire or anything.
Who's that? Nobody.
Just some intel.
What's it like out there? It's not good.
Truman told everyone who Miles really is.
Said that Miles is the one that blew up the building and that he's the terrorist.
Did you see your grandfather? - Charlie? - Yeah.
Look, mom, we got to find a way out of town now.
Not yet.
Why not? Aaron's waiting for us.
This is for Aaron, trust me.
They will never give up.
They will never stop looking for him unless we kill Horn first.
They're calling us terrorists.
Just you wait.
___ Hold it right there.
Tom Neville from the Savannah camp.
I'm here to see commander Roger Allenford.
State your business.
Just give him this.
Tell him I only speak to him.
Those real? A little privacy, gentlemen.
Is she alive? Yes, sir.
She is.
Where is she? Tied up safe, hidden.
You've got a lot of balls coming into my office and telling me you've got my wife captive.
With all due respect, sir, your wife is an enemy of the United States of America.
I figured that you were a good Patriot.
Am I wrong? She's guilty of sedition.
She should be punished.
So why not bring her in? My guess is that you have a dark and stormy cloud over your head, over an otherwise spotless career.
I mean, your wife is a traitor.
People have to be whispering whether or not you were pillow-talking, whether or not any of it rubbed off on you.
But if you brought your wife in by yourself, delivered her unto justice, that would solve all of your problems, wouldn't it? Turn that rain into sunshine.
And why would you do this for me? Honestly? I'm ambitious.
And I think there's value in being friends with a man like you.
So, Commander would you like to come and see the missus? I thought these people trusted you.
I thought you were their beloved Dr.
Porter.
Someone will know where Pittman is I'll find him.
Do you know what'll happen to your daughter if you don't? Or your granddaughter? Threatening me won't find him any faster.
Someone knows something.
How about we get everyone Pittman knows, march them into town square, and start executing them? I bet they'll talk then.
I have put a hell of a lot of time into managing this town.
We have a plan.
Right, the plan taking town after town.
And how many years until you take the whole continent? If I get my hands on Pittman and figure out what makes him tick, we take everything in months.
That's all.
Here, I found this.
What is that? What is this, food? People used to think so, yeah.
I know you're angry, and I'm not apologizing for him.
But you don't know why grandpa did what he did.
He sold us out.
He works for them.
Yeah, I get it.
You hate him for it.
You don't? No.
Well, you're a better person than me.
No, I'm not.
I hated you for a long time for abandoning Danny and me for killing Nora.
That's not fair.
This is different.
All I'm saying is hating you was the easy part.
But letting it go? That's hard.
It's like EPCOT East Berlin out there.
They have dogs.
When the hell did they get dogs? You find the place? The guy's intel was legit.
Basement of the old paper factory.
Definitely their H.
Q.
Is there any way to get in there, drop some kind of device? Not gonna be easy.
Place is sealed up tighter than a drum.
And, uh, Rachel, the there's something else.
I I saw Truman walking in.
Good.
Two birds, one stone.
Walking in with Gene.
You should try to sleep.
You haven't said a word all day.
Come on talk to me.
Did you kill Carl? What? Did you kill my husband? The way he died, the fire in the car, it was always strange.
He hit me.
Oh, my oh, God.
Oh, God, Aaron.
I got angry, and I couldn't control it.
You know I can't control it.
You lied to me.
You murdered him, and you slept in my bed and you lied about it.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know how to explain it.
I've had enough liars in my life.
Cynthia Just leave me alone.
I need to think.
What? I always dreamed of cooking with my daughter, just not like this.
You sure this stuff is safe to carry? Separately they're fine.
But drop this with this down an air shaft into a locked up basement? The gas will kill Horn and everyone else inside.
So when the time comes to do this, what if grandpa's there? Let's just hope that he's not.
Okay, but if he is, you're not gonna go through with it, right? Mom? Hey.
Where the hell are you going? You're just gonna leave us? Look, if Miles was coming, he would've been here by now.
I'm gonna go find him.
And what if they find us? All right, just just hold on, hold on.
We wouldn't last three days without you.
You think three? Look, Miles has got some information that I need, someone I need to find.
I held up my end of the bargain.
Now it's his turn that's if he's even alive.
You they won't kill.
Me on the other hand What? What the hell are you doing? Aaron! Aaron, help! Cynthia! Help! Aaron! Aah! Aaron! Aah! Aaron! I walk through the valley of the shadow of death Dad.
- I will fear no evil for thou art with me.
- Dad She's not getting any better.
She will.
God won't take her from me.
What if there's something more that we could do for her? I'm praying as hard as I know how.
Gary's father is a doctor.
Maybe he could come and see her.
- He he could - He could what? We cannot control the lord's will.
Now, you know that.
Now come pray with me, boy.
The lord is my Shepherd.
I shall not want.
We know that through you Oh, no.
She can't.
It's her decision to make.
Dr.
Porter, what are you doing here? We have the doctor to thank for finding you.
Searching the boatyard was his idea.
Gene? Horn, let her go.
Please she's she's got nothing to do with it.
Please.
I'm sorry.
I need insurance, Aaron.
Can't have one of your pyrotechnic displays.
As long as you cooperate, she'll be fine.
You son of a bitch.
Let her go.
Let her go.
Cynthia, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Aaron's inside.
___ Dad? What have you done, Calvin? Gary's father gave them to me.
I didn't want her to die.
Well, she died because of you.
You prayed for a miracle.
But there are no miracles.
Please, do anything you want to me.
Just please let her go.
There.
That should keep you nice and relaxed.
They tell me you came back from the dead, Aaron That would make you a modern-day Lazarus, wouldn't it? That is, if you believed in that sort of thing.
So what say we start by seeing how resilient your body really is.
- You're free to go, doctor.
- I'm staying.
If you're going to hurt him, I want to be here to help him.
How do we know pain isn't an important part of it? No, you did your part bringing him here.
Thank you.
And as promised, as long as your daughter doesn't look for any more trouble, I won't go looking for her.
Now, doctor.
Jason, please.
Please just let me go.
Why are you doing this? Is it because your father's telling you to? Huh? Shut up.
You always follow the man's orders? I said shut up.
He let you get shipped off to that reeducation center.
He didn't try to stop it.
He didn't say a word.
You know, he doesn't give a damn about you, and you just Jason you're not fully deprogrammed, are you? Not completely not all the way.
- How much further? - Just up ahead.
Do we have a problem? Did you hurt her? I wondered if something like this might happen.
You're still sweet on the woman.
Well, first thing you need to know, I have a man on her.
You try walking in there without me, it'll be a short reunion.
So how about we put the gun down? No, this is what's gonna happen.
You're gonna take me in there, and you're gonna let my wife go.
And then? What? You two run off together, escape like two star-crossed teens? Boy, she must be worth it.
She must give it to you good and sweet.
Who the hell do you think you're talking to? I thought I was talking to a man with his head on straight.
If I bring her back they'll kill her.
You cut her loose and run off, they'll hunt you down and kill you both.
How far do you think you're gonna make it with your soft hands and your fine art? Be realistic.
Your wife went rogue without a single thought of what it might do to you or your son.
And if the boy has two traitor parents, what do you think they're gonna do to him? The only question is, what side of this are you gonna land on? Charlie? What the hell are you still doing in town? You should be miles from here.
We can't.
Aaron's our family.
How'd they find him, Gene? I found him.
And what's Horn doing with him? I don't know.
He's still alive for now.
Grandpa, how could you? They were gonna kill you if I didn't.
What else was I supposed to do? How about the right thing? How about everything that you taught me? Okay.
We're gonna get Aaron out of there, and you are gonna help.
There's nothing I can do.
You can't get in.
It's too late.
- And whose fault is that? - I was trying to keep you safe.
Really? By lying to me? By letting me think that I was crazy? How was that supposed to help? Your mother died of an awful disease.
There was nothing I could do except watch her waste away.
And suddenly I had a chance to save everybody.
They gave me medicine.
No one else had to die like she did.
I didn't realize who they were until it was too late.
But, Rachel it's too late.
You rolled over.
You helped them.
You've never done a bad thing for a good reason? What about you, Miles? Dad how am I ever supposed to forgive you for this? You're not.
I don't want it.
If keeping you alive means you hate me, then you just hate me.
But for God's sake, run.
Run.
I know you all are in there! You got one minute to surrender yourselves and come on out, or we're coming in.
Get them out, Gene, or else this ends bloody.
You son of a bitch.
I didn't know, I swear.
Look I can let me stay behind.
Maybe I can buy you a couple of minutes.
Please.
No.
You have to come with us.
He's coming with us.
Prepare to fire.
What is this, Gene? Where are they? Horn said he was gonna leave my daughter alone.
And he will.
But Miles Matheson bombed the town, remember? Now, you hand him over, and your daughter walks free.
Ah I heard that one before, Ed.
It's the truth.
Any one of you takes a step forward toward that building, this man dies.
Big mistake here, Gene.
I've made worse.
Go, damn it! Unbelievable.
Why you, Aaron? The nanites in your body are behaving in a highly individual way, repairing your cells, oxygenating your blood.
But why? Why only you? I have no idea.
You think of me as your enemy.
But we're partners now.
You know, my father believed there was a magic, invisible power all around us, and if he prayed hard enough, it would grant him a miracle.
He was a horrible, stupid man who based his whole life on a fairy tale.
But it's ironic.
Turns out he was right sort of.
There is an invisible power that can save people.
It just doesn't come from heaven, that's all.
But I have to admit, it is, in its own way, a miracle.
You're gonna teach me how to use it.
I can't.
I don't know how.
Then we'll figure it out together.
It's important.
I have a tumor growing in my brain, and the symptoms are getting worse.
And I'd lost all hope.
Then I heard about you.
Aaron I need you to deliver me that miracle.
And I believe that you can.
Jason! Easy, boy.
Everything's under control.
Roger.
Justine.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Writing that letter was stupid.
You knew how they would react.
What they did to Max, to our baby boy I didn't want them to do that to anyone else.
You know how much trouble you're in now how much trouble we're both in because of you? I'm sorry.
You got to stay clearheaded about this.
Roger, this is a dangerous man.
You can kill them both, and we can run.
Where? Huh? Where? Where can we go? Got to be realistic.
Roger I love you.
I love you too.
Roger, no! So how are we gonna get Aaron now? And dad.
Yeah, that's right.
We're gonna go get your grandfather.
If either of you have any bright ideas, I'd love to hear them.
So here's what we've learned.
Self-healing occurs as a direct reaction to physical trauma, like a lizard regrowing its tail but your defensive actions, burning people alive and all that, are a response to emotional stimuli.
That's what the next phase is all about.
Here you go.
This one should perk you right up.
Aaron! What are you gonna do? Sorry.
I am, but we need to elevate you to a proper emotional state.
Then maybe maybe you can heal someone else.
No.
Please! You said you weren't gonna hurt her.
I'll check in in a bit.
This room may not be the safest place to be right now.
Stop! No! There's gotta be 20 men in that bunker.
20 outside.
Aaron and Cynthia are in there.
What choice do we have? What the hell? Are they dead?
