Touch s02e08 Episode Script

0 Touch S02E08 Reunions (VO) I've never been to this part of the country before.
Previously on Touch What brought you out here? Looking for my daughter.
My son, Jake, he led me to you to try and help you find your daughter.
Amelia! No! Amelia! I can't do it.
My heart is not in it anymore.
I don't need your heart, just your brain.
That's where the money is.
You've never been on my side, Tony.
Tony Rigby was my best friend.
He took my departure from Aster Corps personally.
Guess what I'm doing? Watching a certain curly-haired kid and his dad.
Why are you following me? You're crazy, man.
Aah! Who are you working for? I'm making progress, Will.
I'm getting closer.
I did it for my brother.
I don't care about your brother.
Where is my daughter? Amelia's gone.
She was here.
I know she was.
Where is she?! Calvin, where is she? Where did you see my son? Come on, Phillip, stay with me.
I know who did it, and he's after Jake.
The blackest day, the day you were born.
Run, Jake! It's your moment, Jake.
Are you ready? Bodies at rest stay at rest, and bodies in motion stay in motion, unless acted on by an outside force.
What exactly was the plan here, huh? You realize you would have had to run another day and a half to reach civilization? Let's go.
People, like objects, become set in their paths, embedded in a constrained reality.
As we travel our path, the possible futures, which were once infinite, collapse down to one.
One outcome, unchangeable, inescapable.
Are you okay? Fine.
You said you could handle her.
Now, where are the results you promised? Where is this transformative data? Look, the place hasn't been used in a decade.
The power grid is a joke.
I blow a fuse every time i charge my phone.
If this programms is exposed, we could all go to jail.
We have to stay off the radar.
This is the safest place right now.
What did they do to you? The new generator is on its way.
In the meantime, i need results to take to my boss.
If you can't deliver that, you're of no use to me.
You must have known you weren't gonna make it.
What were you thinking? Look, this is not like working with Calvin.
These people will hurt you.
You don't care about me.
You're just trying to make enough money so you can pay back your bookie.
I was desperate, and I made a deal with the wrong people, but pissing them off isn't gonna help anyone.
The only way that we survive this is by proving our value, okay? I'm hungry.
I'll get you some breakfast.
We're each on a path, and sometimes those paths become entwined, pulled into each other's orbits, and collide.
Please! Save me! Hey, buddy, everything's gonna be all right, okay? Martin, I'm so glad you're here.
- Looks like we may have a problem.
- What? Well, I just checked in on Phil, the guy you saved in the basement.
He's so grateful for everything that you did for him, he's given a full statement to the police that contradicts everything I said.
He told them about me.
He gave them yours and Lucy's full names.
What about Jake? No, he didn't get that far.
He was pretty out of it, but look, it gets worse.
there was a detective in there, clearly a high-ranking guy.
He had access to my database.
Obviously knows more about us than we do about him.
Well, then Jake and I will disappear.
No, just stay at home.
I need to know where to find you.
Here's the cop's card.
Ring any bells? Denny Lange.
I've never heard of him.
Okay, well, just do me a favor.
Hang on to the card, lay low.
I'll be in touch.
Trevor? Thank you.
Hi, you.
How you feeling? Better.
I could sleep for three days, but besides that How's he? Not good.
"0175.
" So he said this detective has no idea where to find us, right? He doesn't have an address or anything? Not yet, but we need to keep it that way.
Well, I told him i was staying in a hotel and I fell through a glass table.
I hope that worked.
- A glass table? - Yeah.
Pretty good.
What? on the window when we were leaving the hospital.
Hold on.
I just want to follow him and see where he goes.
He's turning left.
Jake, stay in the car.
"Rigby.
" I think this is Tony Rigby's house.
What is Calvin doing here? I thought Calvin and Rigby hated each other.
So did I.
Remember me? Oh, what are you doing here? I told you to stay away from me.
You also told me that you weren't working with Tony Rigby.
What are you doing here? Tony Rigby murdered my mother, and he took Amelia.
I would never work with Tony Rigby.
Where is he? I don't know.
That's why I'm here.
He disappeared.
I'm looking for him.
He's with Amelia and you're gonna help us find her.
I told you, i don't know where she is.
Don't forget I got your files on a hard drive full of information waiting to be handed over to the police.
Now where would Aster Corps try to hide Amelia? Where would they try and hide her? Somewhere isolated.
Somewhere they can control.
The problem is they have 83 facilities in seven different countries that match that description.
There is a high-level Aster Corps directory.
Where would I find that directory? In my loft.
Good.
I'll drive with you and Lucy will follow.
The day my mother was killed and Amelia was taken, Kase, my assistant, he never showed up.
Somebody had to have given Rigby access to the front door.
I've been trying to reach Kase, but no luck.
Yeah, well, everybody's got their price.
Kase knows how I think.
He knows my work.
He'll have a new lab up and running in no time.
Yeah, but to what end? I mean, I understand why you would do it, but why would Aster Corps want Amelia? Knowledge is the new currency.
Aster Corps wants to harness Amelia's incredible predictive abilities.
I mean, if they can map her neural pathways, they'll be able to predict the movements of their stocks, foresee the outcomes of elections, you name it.
So it's all about money? They abducted a child to increase their profit margins.
Is that it? They don't see her as a child.
They see her as a means to an end.
Where's Jake? Jake? Jake?! Oh, my God.
Jake! Jake, what have you done? Stop! You can't just rip him out! It's too dangerous! - Shut it down.
- You can hurt him.
- Shut it down! - I know it looks scary You get him out of there, or so help me God, i'll kill you.
Now! I'm telling you it's a mistake.
Before Amelia started working with Teller, she was trapped inside her own mind.
Maybe Jake knows this can help him.
Oh, my God.
What? What is it? - What do you see? - These waves here.
Wernicke's and Broca's, they're beginning to oscillate.
- Is that bad? - No, it's just the opposite.
What does it mean? His speech center.
It's getting ready to fire.
What are you talking about? He doesn't speak.
I found you.
Where are we? I don't know.
Ever since I was born, I had this locked door in my mind.
And then, one day, when I was working with Calvin it just opened.
After that, I could come here whenever I wanted.
I could hear you, but I couldn't get through.
What changed? You see this pattern here? It indicates both sending and receiving.
What does that mean? What does that mean?! He's having a conversation.
With who? Amelia.
Jake, if you're talking to Amelia, tell her I love her, okay? Tell her I love her.
You mom's here.
She wants you to know that she loves you.
I know.
I can, I can feel her.
Tell her, tell her that we're coming for her.
We're coming for you.
I knew she didn't give me up.
Ask her where she is, if there's an address, a landmark? We're in the desert.
There's a water tower, and the building's old.
I think they used it for other experiments.
There's a sign.
It says "Teller Institute, established 1997.
" Jake! Come on, buddy, please.
The conversation's over.
He's coming out.
Jake? J What's he writing? "1997.
" Maybe the year? Part of an address, maybe.
There are no Aster Corps facilities with 1188 in the address.
to Teller's loft.
The one he shared with Avram in New York City.
So, what, they took her back there? No, no, no, Avram would have called me.
But obviously this has something to do with Teller.
There was something in Teller's files.
By the time I met him, he was already established in New York.
But before that, there was another lab, years earlier.
Here.
In Apple Valley.
He started working there in 1997.
I always thought the Teller Institute was just his house in the Bronx.
That's what it became after Aster Corps discredited him.
So they took Amelia back to where it began.
Here's the location.
About two hours southeast of here.
In the middle of nowhere it looks like.
They'll be able to see you coming for miles.
You'll have to approach very carefully.
Us? What about you? I thought you wanted revenge.
I need to focus on saving my brother.
He's all I have left.
Thanks to Jake, I think I have the final piece of the puzzle.
Forward the map to my phone.
Come on, buddy.
Let's go.
I hope you find her.
I shouldn't even have to be looking for her.
I figured it out, Will.
I know what to do.
The kid Jake his brain was amazing.
I never knew where the right pathway was until today.
Mr.
Norburg, I thought that was you.
Do you need anything? Coffee.
Lots of coffee.
Okay.
Maybe I'll just call Dr.
Whitman.
Yeah, go ahead.
Call whoever you'd like.
You know what they're gonna say? "Yes, Mr.
Norburg, whatever you want, Mr.
Norburg.
Thank you for your generous donations, Mr.
Norburg.
" You work here? - How old are you? - 17.
I volunteer.
I want to be a neurosurgeon when I grow up, so I got permission to I'm sorry.
You don't care.
Look, I know this probably looks kind of strange, but I know what I'm doing.
There's an implant in my brother's brain right here, you see? Like they do for Parkinson's patients.
Very good.
It fires electrical impulses, rerouting the synaptic pathways.
My hope is that I can redirect all of his brain functions around the damaged areas.
So he'll be able to talk and move.
Exactly.
It'll be like the accident never happened.
Okay, it looks like we got about ten more miles on this road.
Hey what's that? Open it.
Yeah? It was my mother's.
She left it to Amelia.
You look happy.
Well, I wasn't always a deranged conspiracy theorist living out of my car.
What did you do before? You know, it's funny.
After everything that we've been through, I don't know the first thing about you.
Well, I guess we know the important stuff, right? But if you must know, I was in advertising.
I wouldn't have guessed that.
There wasn't a client in the world I couldn't land, believe me.
Yeah, I bet.
'Cause you were the most determined.
- No, no, no, no, no.
Please! - What? The engine's boiling over.
I hate this car.
The pathway's still open.
We're getting there.
Motor test.
Again.
Flexion to pain.
Localized response.
That's a five on the GCS.
He-He's never been more than a two.
Okay.
Moving on to the brain stem.
This is the home stretch.
Rapid eye movement, both eyes.
He's looking at me.
It's working.
William? He can hear me.
What happened? The garage is closed for the weekend.
How's she doing? Not good.
It's gonna take at least an hour to cool down.
- We don't have an hour.
- I know.
Having some trouble? Engine overheated.
I could take you to the next town.
They probably have a mechanic.
We don't have time for that.
Actually, we're trying to get here.
Is there any chance you could give us a ride? That's 20 miles off the highway.
It'd probably put me way behind schedule.
Hold on.
I got 200 bucks.
Yeah, I can do that.
Hop in.
Thanks.
I'll get Jake.
- Watch your step.
- Thanks so much, sir.
Okay.
Hey, buddy, come on.
Why don't we we put that back? It's not ours.
I don't mind.
He's just like my kid, curious about everything.
She, uh, helps out at a hospital near where we live.
Wants to be a doctor.
She's beautiful.
When I was her age, i wanted to be a beach bum.
Yeah, Evie practically grew up in a hospital.
Mom had cancer.
She passed last year.
I'm sorry.
So many memories in that house.
I miss Evie so bad, but every time I'm home Well, there's some times I feel like I'm abandoning my kid by being away so often.
I'm so sorry.
I know what you mean.
I haven't seen my daughter for three years, and if I had a choice in the matter I know, it's just It's been so long.
What if she won't talk to me? Then you keep trying until she does, I guess.
Have arrived in your destination.
Oh, it snuck up on me.
Here we are.
Wherever here is.
Look, I don't feel right leaving you guys out here.
No, we'll be fine.
Look, thank you very much for the ride.
I wish you the best with your daughter.
- Thank you.
- Come on, Jake.
Let's go.
This is the address.
Where is it? Jake! Come on.
She's in there? Yeah, with at least a dozen armed guards.
Calvin was right.
They'll see us coming a half an hour before we even get there.
If we spook them, they'll just take her and run.
Okay.
So maybe we wait till nightfall.
- Jake.
- Jake.
Jake, no, no.
No.
No, Jake, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Martin, they're getting the Jeep.
They're gonna be here any minute; we got to go.
We got to run.
We can't outrun a Jeep.
They're gonna keep searching till they find someone.
Wait.
.
that's it.
That's what Jake wants; He wants them to find me.
That's my way in.
You stay hidden.
You make sure that Jake's safe.
Hey, it's okay, buddy.
Help! - Let's get him.
- Help! Thank God.
I've been wandering around for hours.
- Sir, you're on private property.
- I know.
I'm sorry, my car broke down a few miles back.
I got turned around.
Why don't you get inside? Thanks.
Yeah.
All right, let's go.
All I need is a phone, okay? I can call a friend; they'll come pick me up.
Whatever you guys are doing out here, I promise I won't say a word.
Get inside.
- You can't be serious.
- Now.
Fine.
I don't want a problem.
I just want to get out of here.
Can I at least get some water? Hey, please, can I get some water? I haven't don't anything wrong.
My car broke down! You can't hold me like this! How did you find us? You.
I thought you worked for Calvin.
Sort of.
Mostly I worked for his mother, t- taking care of Amelia.
- Where is she? - I can't tell you.
They'll know that I helped you, and they'll kill me.
You'll tell me where she is right now.
Please, you don't know what these people are capable of.
Right now, you have no idea what I'm capable of.
Now, where is she? She's locked in a room on the other side of the building.
Give me the keys.
Show me.
I'm so sorry.
Mom loved you more than anything.
She was here every day, making sure you were comfortable.
I remember her aria.
Her voice? She read to you.
Yeah.
Right, her voice.
Words still jumbled.
Yeah, a certain amount of aphasia, it's normal, you know.
You'll get over it with time.
Just be patient with yourself.
What what was that game that she hated? The one with the apples? With the pillows? Yeah.
Y-You would make a big mountain out of cushions and then you would climb to the top, and then you'd push it all over like an avalanche.
And you would come and save me.
Do you remember anything about the accident? Yeah.
It was a storm, and I was supposed to go on a railing? - No, a - A flight.
Yeah, you were going back to school in Connecticut.
I had promised that I would get you to the airport on time.
The rain was coming down really hard, and we were listening to the oldies station on the radio.
And then you took a turn.
And William I can't tell you how sorry I am about the accident.
It was my fault.
You trusted me, and I And you're still moving mountains to save me.
Come on, before the guard comes back.
Stay with me.
I got to get you somewhere safe.
Come on.
We have to find some keys.
Here.
Got it.
Jake? Jake! Good idea.
They can't catch you if they can't drive.
Let's go.
Hey, it's okay.
We're gonna get your dad, but we need Wait up.
Her room's just around the corner.
Hold on, wait, wait.
Don't you move.
Go.
I know I locked it.
Well, I didn't let him out.
Kase.
Where are they? Amelia.
Don't be frightened.
My name is Martin Bohm.
I'm a friend of your mother's.
I know who you are.
You're Jake's dad.
We have to go.
We don't have much time.
I'll follow you.
Show me the girl's room.
She's gone.
Where are they now? I don't know, sir.
I'm trying, - but every - Just find them.
We're never gonna make it.
Shut up.
Hold up.
- I'll check down this way.
- Come here.
Get back here.
Is there another way out of here? There's seven possible exits, but no matter where we go, they'll see where we're going and cut us off.
They have eyes everywhere.
So we're gonna have to blind them.
Show me how.
The circuits are ancient.
We can overload the system.
Here, you're gonna need this.
We'll turn the lights on last - so no one will know where we are.
- Okay.
The servers.
You can power them up from that computer over there.
All right.
They're not in the south wing.
Circle around east.
They're up.
Are you ready? Yeah.
That's Martin Bishop.
Somebody get the power back on! Immediately! We need to get back to your mom and Jake.
They're not where you left them.
I know where they are.
We're going to need a car.
Damn it.
Come on.
Get down.
I'm in the garage.
Copy.
We're heading out now.
They won't get far.
Get to the back, now.
Hey, someone's been in here.
The keys are gone.
What do you mean, the keys are gone? They're gone.
They're not there.
Come on.
Stop, stop! Stop here.
I don't see anything.
Amelia, wait! Amelia, get back in the car! Mom? Mom - Amelia? - Mom? Amelia? Amelia! Oh, my God! Oh, my God! My baby! My baby! I'm so sorry I couldn't find you.
My baby.
Oh, my Lucy! - Lucy, we gotta go now! - Okay.
Jake, get in the car! Three of the teams radioed in.
There's no sign of them.
Keep looking.
Ms.
Farington.
You lost her.
Yep, that's right.
The girl's gone.
But we found her once.
I'm sending Tanner.
No, that is really not necessary.
I'm still in complete control of the operation.
We're taking a team out right now.
We're gonna find her.
You leave me no choice.
He'll be there in 20.
That should do it.
Thanks.
Well, now that we've got Amelia back, we've got all the evidence we need.
The cops can't ignore us.
Just got to find the right cops.
So let's do it.
What do you want me to do? I want you to disappear.
- Why? - Lucy, Guillermo Ortiz is still out there.
It's dangerous.
It's gonna take some time.
Aster Corps is gonna use that time and all of their resources to try and find you and your daughter.
You need to go somewhere that you've never been before.
Look, we could never imagine what your daughter's been through.
Disappear somewhere safe.
Spend some time with her.
Okay.
So this is good-bye for real.
No.
I'll see you soon enough.
- You take care, Lucy.
- I will.
You kept it.
Thank you.
Give this to your dad.
He'll know what to do.
Hey, guys.
I'm sorry to interrupt, but, Jake, we gotta go.
Amelia, it's a real pleasure to finally meet you.
Come on, buddy.
Bye, you.
I'll see you soon.
Jake, we gotta go.
Lucy - we'll see you soon.
- Bye.
Let's go.
Mr.
Norburg.
Will? Will? Oh, no! The old pathways must have been too strong.
He regressed! Why didn't you wake me up?! - I-I didn't know what to - Get out! Will! We each have a path.
Some are forced apart, but flow back together, their synchronicity inescapable.
Evie, honey? Some paths touch only briefly, and glance off in different directions, forever changed by the meeting.
Some loop back again and again, across time and space Mom always finding each other.
You're gonna have to get used to it, kid.
I'm gonna be hugging you and kissing you and staring at you while you sleep.
I'll be honest, it's gonna be a little creepy.
You're so beautiful.
I know, Mom.
Oh, my God.
Aster Corps.
Once we're on our path, there are limited chances to deviate, small moments when some other force comes into play, and knocks you off your trajectory.
Ms.
Farington, we've spotted Lucy Robbins' vehicle.
Is Amelia with her? Unclear.
How should we proceed? We only need the girl.
The mother's a liability.
Get rid of her.
Make it clean.
It's okay, honey.
I'm not gonna let them take you.
I know.
This car's faster than it looks.
Don't worry.
We turn around, they follow, they catch us in three minutes.
You saw that? - I see the paths, the possibilities.
- Okay.
So we off-road, and we'll lose 'em in the desert.
The axle breaks down in.
23 miles.
They catch us in six minutes.
Is there any path where we escape? No.
Is there any path where you escape? - Yeah.
- But not me.
No I run, you block them, and they Okay.
It's okay, baby.
Okay? No, I won't leave you.
Here's what I need you to do, babe.
I need you to go out to the desert, I need you to run as fast as you can, okay? Whatever happens, wherever I am, I promise I'll be watching you, okay? I love you.
Okay, go! Run.
Run as fast as you can, okay? Run! What could be powerful enough to change your path, change your future? An act of nature.
An act of love.
Where's the girl? What girl? Look, I don't know who the hell you are I'm her mother.
Once this deviation happens, you find yourself on a new path, uncharted, unknown and stretching out ahead of you.
