[MUFFLED] If we went two stops ago,

It's completely your fault.

Yeah, baby.
Hello?
Help! There's someone down here!
Help!
Help!
Somebody!
Help!
Shit!
[RAUCOUS ROCKABILLY MUSIC PLAYING]
[WHISPERING] Please don't
leave me. Please don't leave me.
[GRUNTS]
Yeah.
Hello, secret stash.
Oh, baby, come to Mama.
A little further.
Hey, come
[SCREAMS]
Ow! Ow! Shit!
Shit. Shit. All right.
[SOBBING] Why is this happening to me?

There's something on my ♪

My heart cries out ♪
[ARIA RESUMES]
[POWER THRUMMING]
Well, that was certainly uncalled for.
Was it?
Trying to save Ben is a fool's errand.
If you look at the
variables, the odds of success
are vanishingly small.
That's 'cause the only variables
you consider are black and white.
There's gray in the world.
I live in that space.
You're different than your siblings.
I suspect that the other
Hargreeves was afraid of that.
And you.
Yeah, he was.
And it screwed me up for a long time.
You say you're not the same as him?
Now's your chance to prove it.
Hmm.
[CRYPTIC MUSIC PLAYING]
This is it.
[CRYPTIC MUSIC INTENSIFYING]
[DEVICE TICKING, CRACKLING]
What is all this?
This is the Cleanse, my boy.
My monitoring station recorded
a magnitude 6.3 seismic event.
And the epicenter is right here.
[TINNY HOLIDAY MUSIC
PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]
[DEVICE SHUTS OFF]
[VIKTOR] What the hell?
You still think you can save Ben?
This is only phase one.
His mind has been hijacked.
His body is merely a vessel.
The Cleanse will slowly
take full control.
We should run away somewhere.
[LAUGHS] Excuse me?
I'm serious.
Keep driving south. Live
on a beach somewhere.
Get married.
Just you and me.
Sure.
With the 18 bucks we have between us.
I might just have some money
stashed away in the Caymans.
You said the government got it all.
Yeah, about that.
We just need to get to Florida.
I know a pilot in Miami.
[LAUGHS]
I mean, what am I even
supposed to say to that?
Just say yes.
[FAINT, SHRILL RINGING]
[JENNIFER] Mmm.
Be right back.
Stay put.
[JENNIFER] I will.
This is Alpha 3-9. I've
got eyes on the package.
Copy. They've been spotted.
- Not far from here.
- Wait.
- We still have our deal, right?
- Yes.
But you're running out of time.
So, if you're going to make a
move, I suggest you get on with it.
[PHONE RINGING]
[PHONE CONTINUES RINGING]
Hello?
[VIKTOR] Don't hang up.
Viktor? How the hell did you find me?
What you two have been
up to hasn't been subtle.
What can I say? I've been in
prison the last four years.
Not that, you perv.
I'm I'm talking 6.3
on the Richter scale.
- Is she still with you?
- That's none of your business.
Actually, it is my business
'cause you two are on pace to
end the world in about 48 hours.
Twenty-four, actually.
[VIKTOR] Shut up!
Are you serious? You're with Dad now?
Ben, listen to me.
There's something happening to you.
It's called the Cleanse.
It's like a virus.
It's taking over your whole body, and
[BEN] Bullshit.
I feel great. Never felt better.
That's what I'm saying.
Whatever you're feeling or
seeing, it can't be trusted.
There is something
happening inside of you,
and it's only gonna get worse.
You're right.
Something is happening inside of me.
I'm happy for the first time in my life,
and you miserable
assholes can't stand it.
Ben! I'm just trying to help you!
You need to get away
from Jennifer right now!
You wanna help me? Leave us alone!
Ben!
He may be past hope.
[INTENSE, URGENT MUSIC PLAYING]
Ben, what's wrong?
[BEN] Nothing I can't handle.
[MUSIC TRAILS OFF]
We really get to keep these?
Absolutely.
At least your eyes are open.
[RIBBONS] Gentlemen,
I wanna introduce you to our elite unit.
Welcome to Sector R.
[DIEGO] Hell yes.
I mean, this is what I'm talking about.
These are the guys.
Agent Parnell here will
show you guys the ropes.
Frank Parnell. Everyone
around here calls me Bud.
Bud. Bud.
I'm gonna hit you straight.
We need a chopper ASAP.
I want a two-mile perimeter and
a lockdown around the hot zone.
I want boots on the ground.
- [DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
- No stone is left unturned. You feel me?
[MUSIC DROOPS OFF]
[AGENTS LAUGHING]
Yeah, we don't do that here.
- [QUIZZICAL MUSIC PLAYING]
- Not even the chopper?
We got a white cube van, but
you need department approval.
Why don't you two boys grab a
chair? Make yourselves comfortable.
Lunch order's about to go in.
[QUIZZICAL MUSIC CONTINUING]
Maybe we should go
back to looking for Ben.
We just got here.
[MEOWS]
[SNIFFS DEEPLY]
[BREATHY SIGH]
- [LUTHER] Hey, Diego.
- Hmm?
Are you sure that these are the guys?
Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure.
What
This is Covert Ops, bruh.
I'm talking Watergate, Cuba, Bin Laden.
These are the guys.
Yeah. I'm pretty sure this
is where they, you know
put agents out to pasture.
These guys are the best of the best.
That's what my manager
at the club called me
when he put me on the
Sunday brunch buffet.
Sounds like you're killing it
on multiple fronts, big guy.
Sunday brunch buffet is where
they put the dead weight.
Legs and eggs.
Look around.
This is legs and eggs.
I'm not gonna let your bad
attitude wreck this for me.
Fine. Knock yourself out.
I'm gonna go see if Ribbons
has anything on the Keepers.
[CHEEKY, MISCHIEVOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
[MUSIC TRAILS OFF]
[FIVE] I don't think I
can eat another subway rat.
[LILA] If you add an orange peel to it,
it kind of tastes like duck à l'orange.
Care to guess how long we've been here?
Long enough I found my first gray hair.
And it's not on my head.
[FIVE EXHALES BEMUSEDLY]
[FIVE] Well, according to my calendar,
it's been
six years, five months, two days.
Yeah, well, we'll find a
way home soon enough, right?
If we don't get stabbed, shot, or
blown up the next time we go topside.
In some of those timelines, we
would've been lucky to get out alive.
Yeah, well, we're still kicking,
so we must be doing something right.
Do you remember that timeline
we found the other day?
At the greenhouse?
And the strawberries. What about it?
Seemed pleasant enough.
There's no feral hogs
there. No secret police.
I was thinking we could maybe
set up there for a stretch.
So you're giving up?
No one said give up, but
it's been almost seven years, Lila.
We deserve a break.
You know, a bed. A shower.
I would strangle a
kitten for a hot bath.
Just a few days, okay? This does
not mean that we're giving up.
No.
Okay.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
I don't like it, Jean.
I know you don't, Gene,
but I talked to Red Deer.
His story checks out.
[WHISTLING JAUNTILY]
That song he keeps whistling. I hate it.
Let's just hear what he has to
say. All right? No harm in that.
Mr. Muntz!
You are a long way from Red Deer.
Well, I wouldn't miss
what's coming for the world.
Oh? And what is that?
The Cleanse.
- But we
- Lost the girl. I know that.
How the heck do you know that?
I have people looking for her.
So do we.
Tell me how she escaped.
We had her secured in the barn.
Guards posted.
- Gene and I were in the house
- Dancin'.
when we heard the screaming.
By the time we got to the barn
[SIGHS] she had dug her way out.
With that tentacle boy.
Excellent.
Exsqueeze me?
That boy is the missing
piece of this puzzle.
He's the lock, and she's the key.
- You're a cryptic little son of a bitch.
- Gene!
Either tell us what you know,
or I dunk your face in the deep fryer.
That boy has a family,
and if they find him and
Jennifer before we do,
everything is ruined.
So
why don't you park that macho bullshit,
let us get to work,
find out where the family's going,
and stop them?

- Ugh! Ugh, gross.
- [BARKS]
You must be Thunderbolt.
[THUNDERBOLT WHINES]
You're a good dog.
You're a good dead doggy.
Yeah. You like kisses, huh?
Hey, I got a mission
for you, Thunderbolt.
You gotta go fetch.
- [BARKS]
- I need you to go fetch a human.
Any living human now.
Just no motorcycles, no leather.
You got it, boy? You understand, right?
Stop it!
Please, please! Go fetch!
You can do it, boy!
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
- [ALLISON] Is this the place?
- [CLAIRE] Yeah.
It's his favorite.
- Have you been here before?
- No, no.
I've never been inside.
- So you have been here before.
- In a cab, Mom.
To get Uncle Klaus.
God! For once in your life,
you just need to chill.
We're gonna talk about
this later. Wait here.
[BIKER] What do you want?
Open up!
Piss off!
[SCOFFS]
[ENERGY WHOOSHES]
[TENSE PERCUSSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]
Now, where are your manners?
[INDISTINCT CLAMORING IN DISTANCE]
[SEX WORKER] Yes, baby.
[CLIENT] Next week.
Sorry.
Excuse me. I'm looking
for my brother, Klaus.
Have you
Okay.
Klaus?
Klaus?
- [THUD]
- Oh!
[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
Seek, and ye shall find.
So Klaus is your brother, huh?
I guess pretty and
stupid runs in the family.
[ENERGY THRUMMING]
Yeah.
That was cute.
I had to let Klaus go.
But seeing as you're a woman
with such special talents,
perhaps you'd be interested
in filling his vacancy.
[ENERGY THRUMMING]
[QUINN CHUCKLES]
But I gotta ask, are you a ballbuster?
'Cause one thing I
cannot abide on my crew
is a ballbuster.
[MUSIC INTENSIFIES]
[CLAIRE] Hey, asshole!
Claire, no!
You brat!
That was a mistake.
Goddamn bitch!
I think you might be right.
I am a ballbuster.
What?
- [FLESH CRUNCHING]
- No, no, no!
[SCREAMING]
[PULPY POP]
[QUINN MOANING]
- Holy
- [SHUSHING]
[QUINN] Oh shit. Oh shit.
Now, where's my brother?
Or the next time, it's
gonna be your heart.
Pet cemetery on Sycamore.
He's buried there.
Which grave?
What the hell are you?
[RESOLUTE MUSIC ESCALATES]
I'm an actor, you motherfucker.
Well, he was rude.
[MUSIC TRAILS OFF]
I got three about the same age.
[BUD CHUCKLES] Picture is ten years old.
Kids are all grown up now.
They've got their own
lives, their own kids.
Must be nice.
Not in the slightest.
They can't stand me.
First wife left me years ago.
I'm on my third divorce.
Damn, dude!
What happened?
The job.
When they send you on assignment,
the last thing you wanna do
is let anyone know where
you are or what you're doing.
That includes family.
You don't want them worrying.
Yeah, but
She knew the life.
Right? I mean, working for the CIA.
Yeah, sure she knew.
And when the kids were
old enough, so did they.
For the first few years,
being away all the time worked.
- Until it didn't.
- Hmm.
We just slowly slipped apart, you know?
Became strangers in our own home.
Yeah, but I mean,
the missions.
Traveling all over the world.
I'd trade it all in.
All of it in a second
for a chance to have
dinner with my kids at 6:00,
help them with their homework,
or a chance to lie down next to
my wife at the end of the day.
That's why I'm down here.
File and pile. That's the way to go.
Uh
What? File and pile?
Yeah.
I thought this was an elite unit.
[SCOFFS] Son, the only
elite thing about this unit
is our pension status.
[CHEEKY, MISCHIEVOUS MUSIC PLAYING]
[DIEGO] But
But what about that guy?
I mean, he said he worked the
Castro file back in the day.
Castro?
Sure, Larry Castro,
the counterfeit olive oil
king of the Dutch Antilles.
Yeah. That was a real
embarrassment for the agency.
This is legs and eggs.
[BUD] Sunday brunch, my friend.
I gotta chop a log.
[IN PUNJABI] Auntie Ji, hey. It's me.
Put Lila on.
What?
Where is she?
Okay.
[SOMBER, DISTRAUGHT MUSIC PLAYING]
[MUSIC TRAILS OFF]
[SPARE, TENDERHEARTED MUSIC PLAYING]
If you keep this up,
we're not gonna have
strawberries when the snow comes.
So we'll eat snow.
- [LILA] Ah!
- Oh.
[ENCHANTING MUSIC PLAYING]
Don't.
Don't what?
Be weird.
Was that weird?
No, which is what makes it weird.
[MUSIC TRAILS OFF]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Hey, what's the verdict, muchacho?
Your team find Ben and Jennifer?
That's none of your business.
Well, they need our protection.
You're the one that needs protecting.
It's time for you to go, muchacho.
Oh, Gene.
Gene, Gene, Gene.
Keep walking right out that
back door, and don't come back.
What seems to be the problem?
I just don't like you, is all.
Is that it?
In a nutshell, yeah.
What about Jean?
Jean's not calling the shots here. I am.
Does she know that?
Here's what you're gonna do.
You're gonna leave
[GUN COCKS]
or I'm gonna blow out your kneecaps.
Oh no. Wouldn't want that.
You know, Gene
I'm sorry it didn't work out between us.
Really. I mean that.
Fuck off.

[ECCENTRIC, SUBDUED MUSIC PLAYING]
- [AGENT] Are you lost?
- Jeez!
Yeah.
I am. But, uh, you know what?
I think we're all lost to some degree.
Right?
We're all just searching for
meaning in an ever-changing world.
Not on the director's floor.
That's right.
Do you know where the bathroom is?
End of the hall, turn right.
Thank you.
[ECCENTRIC MUSIC CONTINUING]
Shit.
[RIBBONS] Can I help
you with anything there?
I, uh
I saw that, uh, this
was damaged.
And I'm pretty handy with tools,
so I thought I might just
try and fix it for you.
[RIBBONS] Hmm.
Well, we have people for that.
Oh.
Fine.
Shall we get you back
to your brother now?
Sure.
That'll be all, Derek.

Yes.
It is.

What's this?
A way home.
It's a cipher.
How long have you had this?
I'm not exactly sure.
How long?
Five months.
Maybe six.
And you didn't tell me. Why?
You know why.
What are you doing?
What does it look like
I'm doing? I'm going home.
We should talk about this.
There's nothing to talk
about. We're going back.
To what? Another apocalypse?
Another broken timeline?
A broken marriage?
That is none of your goddamn business!
[FIVE] Actually, it is.
I've been here with you the past
seven years, watching your back.
Nursing you when you were sick.
Holding you when you were sad.
So it is my goddamn business.
- We're not talking about this.
- We both know how miserable you were.
You do not get to decide
what I do with my life!
He can't give you what you need.
Oh, and you can?
You're happy here.
I know you are.
We both are.

None of this is real!

Survival.
Nothing more.

I have children, Five.
Children who need me.
And I need them.

I can't speak to how the

it was wrong of him to
treat you the way he did.
It is now abundantly clear
to this version of myself
that you deserve to wear the uniform
just as much, if not
more, than the others.
- It shouldn't be much longer to the bank.
- I can't. I'm not gonna make it.
- Can you hang on a little longer?
- Stop. I gotta lie down.
