Austin City Limits

Previously on "Revolution": - You Monroe? - Where's Duncan? - She's dead.
- How? Patriots.
And we want blood.
We're moving out! Bass! Wait for Miles.
I got the men I need, Rachel.
Don't have to listen to you anymore.
I don't want to lose you, Aaron.
Me neither.
I say that number, and he does anything I say, anything.
Dad, if what he said is true My guy translated this.
You need to see it.
At least we know where they're taking the cadets to Austin, to take down the, uh, Texas government and kill their president.
Where you been? Right here.
Well We got work to do.
Still got to track Monroe.
So let's get to it.
No.
What do you mean no? No.
Do you even care what they've done to me? They made me do God knows What.
I I don't remember.
Who knows what else they can make me do, dad? It scares the hell out of me.
We don't have time for this.
Come on.
What, you want me to walk it off? Want me to tough it out? Actually, yes.
That's how I raised you.
You want to save your mother, we kill Monroe.
That's it.
Mom is dead.
Don't you say that.
I'm sorry.
I am, but it's true.
They're never gonna give her back to you.
They're lying to you.
You're lying to yourself.
But I'm here! I'm right in front of you.
And I'm asking for your help.
Son I know this hasn't been easy for you.
You just need to hold it together for a little while longer.
Get back here.
Don't you walk away from me.
Get back here! You said your guy could translate this.
This is all he got? The cadets are heading to Austin, Texas government's on the chopping block.
At least we've got a great plan.
We'll just wander around Austin aimlessly till we see some suicide bombers.
I don't see what could go wrong.
You want to translate it yourself, pal Have at it.
You think this is a game? Patriots take Texas, that's it.
It's over.
There'll be nobody else around big enough to stop 'em.
And now they're three days ahead of us on the road.
- Jason? - Let him go.
Let him go! I said, "Let him go.
" Sorry.
This was the only way to get through the door.
But I want to help you.
You want to help us? How? Intel from Truman's office.
Really? How's your dad feel about that? I could care less.
They sent cadets to Austin.
I don't know why, but they're headed to 19 Arnell Street.
Why are you telling us this? Because whatever they're gonna do, I need to come with you, and I want to help you stop 'em.
Are you joking? After all the times you screwed us over.
She's got a great point.
Yeah, I know she does.
And right now I'm about the last guy you should be trusting.
You have any idea what that is? Yeah.
We've seen one or two of 'em.
That's what those sons of bitches did to me that and a lot more.
Look, I know I got nothing here, nothing but burned bridges.
And I know there's no reason for you to take me, but I'm asking.
And I can help.
I need payback.
And how do we know this isn't a trick? How do we know you're not zombified right now? You don't.
But if I step out of line just an inch, shoot me.
Seriously? Are you actually considering this? Well, this kid could come in handy.
And it's like he said, he makes one wrong move, we shoot him.
How's your dad? You know how they say doctor's make the crappiest patients? He's all right.
Just needs a couple days to heal.
Sure you don't want to come? What are you gonna do with the cadets when you find them? Take care, Charlie.
Watch out for Monroe.
Ah, buck up, tiger.
You can do 72 hours without the ball and chain.
This is a boys' weekend.
We're gonna have ourselves some fun.
Get up! Something smells good.
Morning.
I'm making tea.
You want some? You and six-pack make quite the spicy team.
So what kind of number did he do on you? Well, the only person in the world I trust less than him is you.
A boy never forgets his first firearm.
Happy Birthday, kid.
Hi.
Can I ask you something? A paying customer can.
Okay.
I'll have some of that jerky, I guess.
You seen a couple of kids from out of town over the past few days, about our age? - And who's asking? - They're friends of ours.
We're supposed to meet them here.
Well, then you tell your deadbeat friends upstairs to stop making noise all night and pay up on the rent they owe me.
Thank you.
I know their playbook.
If they don't blow our heads off when we come in, there's a trip wire connected to the door, and two pressure grenades under the floorboards.
The grenades are here.
Boom.
The kid's paying off already.
I don't suppose they taught you any Arabic.
Word's cut off.
But it says "Blanch.
Blanch" "Blan Blanch"? Blanchard.
- They're gonna hit Blanchard.
- Who? He's the former leader of this ten-gallon craphole.
Not a fan of ours.
He's gonna want to shoot us on sight.
Yeah, maybe.
Or maybe we help him out, he helps us out.
That's if he's not dead already.
Come on.
You stay here, see what else you can find.
If he even looks at you funny, shoot him.
Stop? Ow! Whoa, whoa! Damn! Oh! Walnut! Ow! Walnut! Whoa, whoa! Walnut, walnut! Sorry, Frank.
Your safe words are no good here.
I got to tell you, Frank, you're making this way too easy.
Hang on.
You're supposed to be dead! Back by popular demand.
Oh, I don't believe this.
You two are here to kill me? Are you serious? I mean, hell, I'm retired! Yeah, that's not why we're here.
I mean, we're not the ones trying to kill you.
What do you got? California papers.
What the hell are Patriots doing with I.
D.
s from California? Jason! Jason! It's you! Stop! Stop! You're gonna kill him! Stop! Who is that? Can I ask you a question if you promise not to get mad? Sure.
Well, it's just you haven't mentioned your family in, like, forever.
Don't you miss them? Of course I miss them.
It just hurts.
Well, if you want to look for them I will help you.
Thank you.
- Hide.
- What? Hide, now.
Slavers.
How did you know anyone was coming? I heard them.
You didn't? No.
Thought this was yours.
Sending in the big guns to Austin.
Jason, for the 100th time, who is this guy? Yeah, Jason.
Tell 'em who I am.
Your buddy here was a Gold star cadet.
I trained a lot of 'em, but Jason they broke the mold with you.
You'd have made a hell of a Patriot.
Where are the cadets? Who are they gonna hit? You want to know the thing that really sets you apart? It was how fast the fight went out of you.
I mean, you gave in rasier than a fat girl on prom night.
You're gonna tell me where the cadets are right now.
Or I got another idea.
How about I read you your number, and you can do their jobs for them? If you knew my number, you'd have already said it.
That is a fair point.
Either way, it doesn't change what you are dumb, obedient, with low self-esteem.
That's just how I like 'em.
Yo' daddy he must've raise you right.
Where are they? Where the hell are they? Even your friends don't trust you.
That's why they got you cuffed 'cause they know how dangerous you are.
You're nothing but a hammer, man.
You're a dull, blunt weapon.
It's all you're ever gonna be.
I don't even know why you fight it.
I know what you're trying to do.
You're trying to make me fly off the handle so I kill you before you talk.
But it's not gonna work.
And you're wrong about me.
I'm done taking orders from you, from anyone.
But you're right about one thing.
I am a grade-A student.
And I've learned from the best.
Uncuff me.
Charlie Sweetheart, you're making a big mistake.
I trust him.
Let's get started.
I got to say, Frank, I'm surprised you believe us.
Do you mind Shutting the gate? I believe you.
One, you two ain't smart enough to make up a story that nuts.
And two, you're just confirming my suspicions, is all.
Yeah? How's that? Ladies If you wouldn't mind.
You're a dirty old man, Frank.
Who you calling "old"? So, anyway, just last night, senator wymann got popped.
Now, wymann's men cornered the shooter.
It was some kid.
Little bastard looked right at 'em.
Boom! Blew his own brains out.
Boy was carrying California paper.
Now, I know Governor Affleck ain't been right since her husband died, but it don't make sense for her to pull a move like that.
That's 'cause she didn't.
They wanted you to think the kid was from California.
The kid's a Patriot.
They're gonna get you and Cali all riled up.
You're gonna rip each other's throats out.
They're gonna waltz in, clean up the mess.
It's pretty much what they did with me and Georgia.
So far, it's working.
Half our Senate's screaming for the scalps of these yoga-monkeys.
And no offense but why target you? I mean, aren't you out to pasture? Because I don't trust those U.
S.
bastards.
And I've been loud about it.
Now now it ain't just my hot air.
Now we got facts.
So what's the play? I'll pay Carver a visit and kick some sense into his scrawny ass.
And I still got a lot of friends in the right places.
By the time I'm done, all of Texas will be out for some red, white, and blue blood.
Those Patriot sons of bitches have screwed with the wrong Texan.
Thank you.
That is what I'm talking about.
Believe me, it's my pleasure.
It'd be good to be in action again.
Retirement sucks.
Here's to getting back in that chair.
We got a lot of work to do.
I guess I should put on some pants.
Hmm? What? What? Are you serious, Miles? You can't even tell when things are going your way? Please tell me this is better than the pity party you got back there with Rachel, huh? You two are like the Sid and Nancy of frowning.
What does that mean? It means the guy that I know didn't used to sit around wringing his hands over every decision.
He used to go in there and do what he had to do to win.
But you, I mean, look it's like watching a killer whale at Seaworld.
Pathetic.
You done? Rachel did this to you.
All right, ju stop.
Maybe you don't know me as well as you think you do.
Or maybe I know you better than you know yourself.
No! She's got the tattoo.
She's from the Willoughby camp.
You didn't recognize her? I wasn't looking at her face.
Hey! What if I told you this is not what it looks like? You're Sebastian Monroe.
You drop the gun.
I said drop it! Now! What'd we miss? He's the cadet handler.
Their next target's General Carver.
They're gonna hit him at the Capitol building, We're letting that one happen.
Bass, he's the president.
They kill him, frame California He had me executed, all right? Excuse me if I hold a grudge.
Nice work, kid.
You can cuff me again if you want.
No, you're good.
What do you mean Monroe's alive? We watched him die.
I put him in the ground myself.
But I'm telling you, the ranger who laid eyes on him is reliable and sober.
And General Blanchard? Doctors are doing the best they can.
Sir, with the recent assassinations and now with Monroe here, I suggest we reschedule.
I'm the leader of the Texas Republic.
I'm not gonna reschedule.
Triple security, put every man on the ground.
Do your job.
Find Monroe.
And this time, make sure he stays dead.
Hey.
What that guy said about you He's wrong.
You're not just some weapon.
So what's the plan? Keep our eyes open, look for kids from Willoughby.
Hope we catch a break.
What the hell is going on? What do you mean? I mean, I've been watching you.
You didn't sleep all night.
- That's not true.
- Yes, it is.
I'm pretty sure you haven't blinked in the last 45 minutes, and you don't seem to care about your kids, and there is no way you heard that wagon last night.
I heard that wagon.
And how dare you say that about my kids? Stop it! Just Just stop.
You're not her, are you? Wha what? Aaron, that's crazy.
You're the nano.
How would you say it? We're behind Priscilla's wheel for the moment.
- Give her back to me - Aaron - Now.
- Just - Give her back to me now! - Calm down.
What did you do with her? Remember when we were inside your head? You were in 2014, and it was wonderful, but you wouldn't accept it.
You just kept rebelling.
Well, we were inside Priscilla's head too, but she didn't fight it.
She's happier.
She's in here, making French toast for her girls.
We won't hurt her.
We just want to use her body for a little while.
Why? It's one thing to hear what an apple tastes like.
It's another to actually taste one.
It's one thing to hear how much you people are preoccupied with sex.
It's another to actually have it.
It was nice, by the way.
We want to learn how to be human.
That's all.
What for? Just do what we say, and you will get Priscilla back.
In the meantime, you will be our guide, and you won't tell anyone.
And if I refuse? Ladies and gentlemen, without further ado, the state of the nation! Well, so much for catching a break.
General Bill Carver! It's gonna be like trying to find a needle at the Super Bowl.
- So is there a new plan? - No.
You see any kids from Willoughby, sh shoot 'em.
Let's just split up and look.
How many camps you hit this week? - Four and counting, Ma'am.
- Yeah? I got to hand it to you, you boys are effective.
It's too bad you're so stupid.
- Excuse me? - Following Monroe.
You don't know him like I do.
The only place he's going to lead you is into a grave.
Rachel! Hey! Put your weapons down! They're friends.
Please.
Aaron? Hi! What are you, uh What are you doing in a hellhole with a bunch of bikers? Long story.
How did you find me? Uh, you remember Priscilla? She tracked you.
She's, uh, good at it.
It's good to see you.
It's good to see you too, Rachel.
It's what separated us from the other 49 states.
They knew it.
And although they had a hard time admitting it, they respected it.
Those values are what led us to not only survive the blackout, but thrive despite it.
It's all right, buddy.
I got you.
Let's get you some coffee.
Hang on.
Where you going, Jason? This is Commanding Officer Shirlee Jenkins.
I've had an eye on you since you came to town, cadet.
Tell me who you're here with.
Miles Matheson and Sebastian Monroe.
They're here to stop the Carver assassination.
All right, then Take the bag.
You're our backup.
Jason.
The incoming class of this year's Texas rangers! Honor, justice, courage, strength you are all the true sons of Texas.
You represent the very best of all of us.
Jason? What are you doing up here? Better vantage point.
Spotted a kid he's got a gun.
Where? There.
He hasn't moved in five minutes.
You should go check him out.
