Earth: Final Conflict s05e20 Episode Script

Street Wise

Previously on Gene Roddenberry's Earth Final Conflict: You think multidimensionally.
- That's a gift.
- It's a curse.
There's a say goes: "Remember the Alamo".
I remember.
You sprung me from that research facility in Alamo.
I was gonna spend the rest of my life there, as a rat lab, 'cause of this gift of mine.
Innocent people will continue to die, until we find a way to terminate this parasite.
Wrong, a hybrid is still part human.
How do we know that whole process can't be reversed? We need to know what make these aliens tick.
Whatever tests that can help us create a hybrid antidote.
A cure? Or a poison.
The only way to know for sure is to test it.
I think you've had enough to drink for one night, don't you? Come on, I get you a cab.
Over this way.
He's waiting.
- Don't be afraid.
- Where am I? What, what's going on? What is this? It's alright.
Don't be afraid.
It's very clear to the President and this administration that the alien threat must be met head-on.
That is why we're willing to do whatever it takes in terms of time, money and resources in order to fast track the development of an effective genetic antidote.
One we'll hope cure those unfortunate citizens who have been infected with the atavan DNA.
Where are you right now in terms of developing such an antidote? Well, a bio-tech team from Doors International, already has a serum, and are going phase one clinical trials.
You can see how the genetic inhibitors have structurally weaken the Atavus prominence.
Oh, it's very impressive, Dr Copple.
It's remarkable, really, considering the time frame.
I told you the Door's bio-med team, will be our best shot.
This is the only lab in the world, that can create the vaccine before it's too late.
So what's the next step? Well, to turn the tide back to make the human DNA dominant again.
I need to incorporate a genetic accelerator.
Now, I'll need at least another 24 hours before I can begin the phase 2 of our trials, with this this hybrid subject here.
Right.
Well, thank you Dr Copple, I'll be informing the President.
I'm sure he'll be very pleased.
Well, thank you Director.
In the twenty-first century, an alien species known as the Taelons came to Earth with a promise of peace.
They lied Their true agenda was to dominate us.
After years of struggle the Taelons have perished leaving more aggressive beings in their wake, the Atavus.
My name is Renée Palmer.
My mission is to stop this new species from dominating our planet.
This is Earth Final Conflict.
Oh, you look like hell.
Season 5 Episode 20 I feel like hell.
A wild night at the club? Somebody must have slipped me something.
You know I never have more than one drink.
I tried to reach you.
- Oh my! My Global, it was in my bag.
- Where is your bag? I don't know, either I left it in the cab, or Don't worry the lock code on the Global was totally encrypted.
Good, because I left you a for your ears only message.
Doctor Copple and his bio-med team have made a breakthrough with a vaccine.
Hubble and I saw the results of the first clinical trial.
Wow, that's sooner than expected.
Well, jump up and down or anything.
When are they gonna try it on humans? I mean hybrids.
Well, they're working on some kind of bio-chemical accelerator right now, but in a day or so they should move into phase two, if that goes as well as phase one then Howlyn can kiss his hybrid army good bye.
I want to meet Dr Copple.
No can do, Hubble's put a tight lead on this one.
Hubble.
Where where is the lab? - Street, don't ask.
- I'm asking.
I want to meet him.
Fine.
Don't tell me, I wouldn't want you to breach security on my account.
I'll, just check your portal log, triangulate the coordinates.
Northern Maryland, OK? That former Taelon genetics clinic, the government shut down a couple of years ago.
Taelon lab Street, are you OK? Fine, I'm just a little claustrophobic here, you know.
- Street, what's wrong? - Later.
Welcome, Miss Street.
We're concerned about reports, that a hybrid vaccine is being fast track for development.
Yes, it just pass the first stages of clinical trials.
Why am I here? I don't talk to you, I I run from you don't I? Not anymore.
You've crossed over, Juliette, changed sides.
And this antidote, this hybrid vaccine presents a great danger to you, and your brethren.
Yes.
It threatens to stop human evolution in its tracks.
And undermines Howlyn's vision of our future.
He's the master of your fate.
He alone is your salvation.
Yes.
Therefore, the antidote must be destroyed.
Yes.
Where is the lab, Juliette? Where are they developing the vaccine? Since when do you eat meat? Bromide on the rocks, and a steak tatare? Should kill the demons.
I doubt it, you're burning up.
Come on, we're going to hospital.
Let's go, come on.
Don't touch me.
Just leave me alone! Street, talk to me.
What's going on? What's the matter with you? Just get out of here! Leave me alone! God, my brain is crashing, and I just can't take it anymore! I can't stop it! Listen to me.
You're running a high fever.
You're probably just hallucinating.
- No, you don't understand! - I do.
Come on, we gonna go to hospital.
Let's go.
Come on.
Not you.
Look at you.
Look at what you're doing.
- Who did this to you? - It's none of your business.
OK, listen, you wanted to see Dr Copple.
- Let me take you.
- I'm not going anywhere with you.
- I don't want to hurt you.
- Then back off! You would, wouldn't you? - Yeah, you're so hard core.
- Street you just tried to kill me.
Street! Come with us.
You'll be safe.
Where are you? - I really couldn't tell you.
- I see you found your Global.
Yeah, lost and found.
I'm sorry about your arm.
I'm sorry about everything.
- I don't know what's happening to me.
- Street, Street, look at me.
You need help.
What help? There is no help.
- You should just forget about me, Renée.
- Not an option.
You don't get it, it's like I'm disappearing inside myself.
I can feel it and I can't stop it.
I'm going, going, gone.
No, no, no, Street, stay with me.
Look, it's just us talking.
- I need to know have you - fed yet? No.
Then, it's not too late.
We have the hybrid antidote, remember? Untested.
Unproven.
In less than 24 hours that could change.
You have to hold on, you have to fight it, and let me help you.
You still trust me? I have to.
Why? Because I can't lose you.
I won't, you understand? Street? I don't want to do this.
You have to do this.
Sorry - I didn't have a choice.
- Likewise.
Come on.
I did this to her.
No, you didn't.
- I've dragged her into my war.
- Stop it.
- This is everybody's war.
- Nah, I should have protected her.
What, 24/7, how could you? She is a free spirit, you know that.
Not anymore.
No.
Look Renée, you're gonna have to face the hard fact that she is pretty far gone.
Have you saw the labs, the blood work done on her? I don't care, she's not like the other hybrids.
She's a fighter.
She's beaten the odds before.
Her parents sold her off at the age of eight, Hubble, to our own government.
That's right, I've forgotten that.
The NSA intelligence was after her, wasn't it? She can beat this.
She's got a heart, and a mind that can win out.
And we've got a vaccine that can restore her humanity.
It's time to test it.
She's the first in line.
OK.
OK.
Enzyme catalyst is now completely bonded to the protein matrix.
That's three control samples, vacuum transferred for testing.
Move it! Doctor Copple, working late, I see.
- Who who are you? - A fervent admirer.
No, please, please, please, go ahead.
Finish the serum transfer.
Over there.
Move it! I'll be requisitioning all vaccine prototypes, with all the samples - plus your technical data disks.
- No.
No.
Who are you working for? If I told you that I'd have to kill you, wouldn't I? Man You told them, didn't you? Sandoval about the lab? Did I? Do you realise what you've done? You've just killed the very thing that could cure you.
The antidote.
It's gone, destroyed.
And four people are dead Street, including Dr Copple my friend and your ex-saviour.
Do you blame me? You're the only possible link.
No.
- You're forgetting someone.
- Who? You.
You told the hybrid, remember? Right.
You told Sandoval.
That was your mistake.
My only mistake was hooking up with you in the first place.
Why don't you ask yourself, where I would be, or what I would be, if I haven't met you? Look, Street, we're in damage control mode now.
So help me help you.
If you can tell me anything about Sandoval, the Atavus agenda.
If there's any recoverable - data on that vaccine.
- There isn't.
- It's over.
- No, it's not.
I am what I am now, Renée.
And I'm more like you than I've ever been.
What's that suppose to mean? Visiting hours are over.
What's going on? Outside.
What is going on? During my flogging at this morning's intelligence briefing I mentioned a hybrid girl, that she was the source of the leak.
They want her debriefed and transferred.
Where? Back to where she came from, a place known in government spook's circles, as the conclave.
- What? - She's a hybrid now, Renée.
Maybe that multidimensional mind of hers, under alien influence, will offer up an intelligence bonanza, who knows.
We're supposed to help her, not turn her into a government lab rat.
Don't you even start with me.
We had a hybrid cure in our hands, and now we got nothing, because you couldn't keep your mouth shut! What are you waiting for? Destroy it! Aren't you curious, whether or not it'll work on a live subject? It'll be use us to know how close they came to a cure.
Very well.
Proceed.
Run a bio-scan.
It's amazing.
The atavan DNA is showing a mutation on several markers.
It's, it's regressing.
Wich mean is the human DNA will eventually return to dominance.
Never! It's been upgraded since you left.
Not as much as I'd like, but the cuts being what they are these days.
I was about to book a new tenant, but Ethan here had visions of your return.
Who am I to refute his telepathic instincts? Ethan I know you're scared, but I'll be outrage if He's missed you, poor boy.
You left so unexpectedly.
I congratulate you on giving our best government hounds a good chase there for a while.
Even Ethan's extraordinary extra-sensory perception couldn't locate you.
Still running your kiddy freak show, Zimmer? It's Professor Zimmer, and insolence as you well know, will not be tolerated here.
Screw you.
Apparently, you've already done so to yourself.
You left here as a gift it'll be at rebellious, young women, and now, you return to us as what? A hybrid.
Such a cruel cruel world.
And it won't be yours much longer.
Yes.
Well that remains to be seen, doesn't it? You're here for the duration, young lady.
We're going to take an in-depth look into that newly acquired alien mind of yours.
See what insights you hybrids harbor, be they the locations of other Atavus stasis hives, joining chambers, or the particulars of their affairious agenda.
- You'll get nothing from me.
- And either would you, my dear.
Which with no doubt add considerably to your discomfort, here.
Ever seen a hybrid starve to death, Ethan? Not a pretty sight.
Come in.
Alright, you just put that on ice there.
While I'm at it, why don't I just blow your head off? No mercy this time.
The Doors bio-med team, was beyond cold.
You killed the last of my friends.
Oh, no! You'll do that, if you destroy this.
Street must be in a bad way by now.
What do you want? To rejoin the human race.
- On my terms, of course.
- And they are? Oh, I think you know.
After the massacre you just orchestrated, I doubt you can get a parking ticket.
There's a few vials of serum in total, Miss Palmer.
Howlyn believes they're only two.
Oh, by the way, a posthumous congratulations to your bio-genetics team.
It works.
You son of a And I am.
So what's it gonna be, Miss Palmer? With this cultured sample and the tech-code data disks, you could have a new lab manufacturing a vaccine within a week.
Damn you, Zimmer, I'll see you in hell.
Does that mean we're ready to start work, my dear? Tell us about the joining procedure.
First of all the location.
I don't know, I just followed them.
- Who? - I don't know! Bartender, at the "Flat Planet".
And then what? How were you hybridized? Stay focus, Ethan.
Stay with her.
Next stimulus is near optimum now.
I'm seeing what I believe, is an alien.
An Atavus in a chamber.
- Is that correct, Ethan? - Yes.
This is her hybridization, we're witnessing, isn't it? Yes.
Who is your handler, Juliette? Is this an Atavus? Another hybrid? No.
Someone sub-human, like you.
I told you, insolence will not be tolerated.
And neither will I tolerate any multi-dimensional detours, young lady.
Professor, she's been traumatized enough.
You can't keep overloading her hypothalamus with this mix-up, she's just behind a wall.
Yes, but that's we do here at the Conclave, Ethan, we break down walls.
Yours, hers, any gifted subject that comes along.
Yes, we do whatever it takes to prove ourselves useful.
Just leave her alone.
Your moment of chivalry is noted.
We'll resume this later.
Street.
Oh, God.
Easy, easy, it's me.
Remember this old guy? Sammy Where did you find him? After you left, I thought I kept him.
It's remind me of you.
Not that I need any reminding.
Thanks.
For a while, you know, Sammy was my only friend Except for you.
Did you ever think about running and get out of here, Ethan? Coming and look for me? You have E.
S.
P, it wouldn't meant that hard to find me.
Every day.
I thought about you every day, Juliette.
And sometimes I was seeing you, and my mind was getting so clear.
Of course I'd have to push it away, bury it before Zimmer got wind.
I wouldn't let use me to find you, no way.
I was just lying there.
Told him, I was too depressed, too plot.
So you protected me? What about now? Is this a good idea? You tell me.
I honestly don't know.
It's impossible for me to lie to you, Ethan.
You always know what I'm thinking.
You must have known when I left here.
Leaving you was the hardest thing I ever had to do.
- What's the matter? - Put them back on! Put them back on! - I don't understand, why? - Now! Just do it! - Get out of here, - What's the matter? Get out! Get out! I'm scanning for body heat, Sandoval.
So if you brought company, now is the time to tell them good night.
I'm alone.
Drop the weapon.
Your immunity deal, personally approved by the President, and the World Court.
Great.
We're after a good start.
The deposit receipts and access codes from the bank of Manila.
A deed to the isle of Furtana.
Aerial photos and a G.
O surveyor on a diskette, that's everything you ask for, but the Umbrella in your Mai Tai.
Paradise.
You know, when the death settles, you should really lock it up, Miss Palmer.
You really do have a death wish, don't you Sandoval? The antidote? There's only enough to vaccinate one hybrid.
There's no trouble guessing who that lucky patient will be, however if you do that, you won't have enough serum left to reverse engineer an antidote.
You're gonna need Dr Copple's master data disks.
Which will remain with me until I'm completely satisfied with my long term health, and security, no longer be in jeopardy.
I'm not so sure about that part of the agreement.
Take it or leave it, Miss Palmer? Actually, I think, I'll take it.
At least, we're back in business again.
We've got to hand it to Sandoval, he strikes a hard bargain.
So do I.
You're missing a disc.
What? I am? Where the hell is it? Safe.
You get it, when I get an address on Street.
You get the discs, she gets the last of the serum.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
Unacceptable.
What's unacceptable is where she is right now.
She's a free spirit, Hubble, you said so yourself, we can't allow her to turn into something she's not.
She hasn't deserved that anymore than she deserved to be turned into a hybrid.
Intelligence sector has her took away, God knows where.
Then, I'm counting on you to play God, Hubble.
Or at least a human being.
Good.
Good.
Good girl, yes.
Yes, now we're getting somewhere.
Good.
Very good, yes.
Eyes front and centre, Juliette.
Now, can you give us the location of the joining chamber? This hybrid deck? Anything.
Try, dammit.
What is this? Professor, all I'm reading is fear.
Regressing, now.
We've got to induce more brainwave activity, pptimize the neural magnetic resonance, open up that part of her consciousness.
Professor, she's not ready to go there yet.
Nonsense! She'll managed.
Even as a child she broke through, rallied, managed to find the capacity for fourth dimensional reasoning.
Try nine dimensions, Zimmer? - Juliette! No! - Ethan, get out of here, now! No, I won't let you kill him! Ethan, he's mine! No, no.
Please don't.
Please.
Street.
Street, listen to me.
It's over.
You've got to use any humanity you have left to fight.
I can't fight it anymore, Renée.
I can't.
If you have any humanity left, you just kill me now before I loose it completely.
No, there's another way.
Right here.
I've got the antidote.
I'm gonna give it to you, and you won't have to fight this anymore.
Please Please.
Street, don't give in.
He's not worth to do it.
Please.
Hey, you.
Hey, you! How are you feeling? Strange.
Like, past life is all coming back to me.
I guess that's what they call finding yourself.
Very deep.
I Saw your labs.
It is working.
The vaccine is a triumph.
The alien DNA is completely unravelling.
But, there'll be a while before you're back to full steam again.
- You know me, I can rally.
- No, what you can do is rest.
I Agree.
And I'll take good care of her.
If she lets me.
Reading my mind again? - Well, I leave you two.
- I'll see you soon.
No.
You're done.
You're out of this war now.
But you'll never be out of my life, you know that.
Later.
You bring Sammy.
- How are you? - I'm good.
- You look great.
- Thanks.
Thanks.
