03x02 - Transitory Sacrifices of Crisis

Post by bunniefuu »

It's election time again.

Now, can I count on your support for school trustee?

I've been thinking of running against you.

Really?

Professor Ethan Duncan was here.

His research.

It's at DYAD, I assume.

The island of Dr. Moreau.

It's a gift from Professor Duncan.

This could be... his key.

Delphine: Until three weeks ago, we didn't even know Project Castor existed.

We intercepted them as they were forcing her into the trunk of a car.

But this one k*lled two members of the security team.

The other one got away.

What are they after?

He says he'll only talk to you.

Count your sisters.

Siobhan: It was the only way I could see to get you out of DYAD.

Betray my sister?

For Kira.

That's not your bloody decision!

Hello, brother.

There's an issue.

[Woman laughing]

And here we are!

Oh!

Whoops! Sorry! Oh...

Hey, just hold on a second.

There are some adjustments required.

You got it?

Almost.

Oh! That's so much better.

I thought you were special forces.

Shouldn't you have a penthouse?

Cutbacks.

Oh.

But you are actually a soldier, right?

'Cause I once met this guy who said he was a SWAT cop, but then, it turned out that he sold horse feed for a living.

Oh, thank you.

[Coughs]

Okay!

[Chuckling]

Can I take your coat?

Sure.

You're a formal dude.

Has anyone ever told you that before?

Manners were stressed in my house.

Hmm. Really?

And where was that again?

North Korea?

[Both chuckle]

Mm.

[Laughs]

Oh!

[Moaning]

What?

What the hell's going on?

This is Seth.

Listen, guys, this is not what I signed up for.

But we're brothers.

We were taught to share.

Transitory Sacrifices of Crisis

Well, Delphine's buggered off to Europe.

She's covering Rachel's business.

She says that DYAD's off my back, but...

Do you believe her?

I don't know. No.

Hey, what are we doing here?

I need to call Cosima.

I get it.

Your sisters need you, but I want you to see this.

[Clears throat]

Go ahead.

Come on in.

Is this your house?

Yep. It is now.

Take a look, tell me what you think.

I hate surprises.

[Chuckles]

I didn't think you'd come if I told you.

You can afford this place?

I'll figure it out.

You're a bloody lumberjack.

How are you going to live in the city?

Kira: Mom!

Yeah, I-I-I... I bought that for myself, but it shrank in the rain on the way back home.

So I was thinking maybe you could use it.

[Giggles]

Is there anything about this you... like?

Yes, yes...

Good.

Piss off!

[Chuckles]

You were talking in your sleep again.

What did I say?

General whimpering, sorrows, regrets.

How much you miss me while I'm gone.

Ugh! Shut up!

[Chuckles]

[Knock on door]

It's him.

Aah! Ugh!

Ohh.

Hey.

At ease, soldier.

Major.

Glad to see you're out safe.

I met Sarah Manning.

Inside?

But not a prisoner.

She strolled in like the Queen of Manchester making demands.

Does that seem right to you, her and DYAD working together?

I don't know her like you do, sir.

Sit down. You're first.

[Computer beeping]

Paul: Some bags are pockets. No pocket is a pouch.

Conclusion... All bags are not pouches.

False.

Some pigs are predators. No predator is a pet.

Conclusion... Some pigs are not pets.

True.

Some maggots are flies.

No fly is welcome.

Conclusion... No maggots are welcome.

False.

Some doctors are fools.

All fools are rich.

Conclusion... Some doctors are rich.

True or false... Some doctors are rich.

True or false.

True.

He's tired.

We drank last night.

Understood.

Your extraction orders.

We're not done here.

We don't have the original sample.

Separate pickups. Don't be seen together.

You travel this evening.

Is that coming from mother or from you?

You have your orders.

Clean up and clear out. You're going back to base.

My god, you must be Scott.

[Chuckles] Hey.

Yes, the blood work's very encouraging, but I want to get you into an MRI.

Felix: That treatment though, the one from Kira's tooth, that's working, yeah?

I mean, it's possible it's suddenly this efficacious, but...

I know, people have rebounds all the time.

I could just as easily dip tomorrow, I know.

Cosima...

These numbers, they're great.

I just can't explain them.

Um... Maybe it's about more than numbers.

[Velcro tears]

What do you mean?

Are you suggesting a spiritual component?

A what?

I'm not decamping to an ashram, Felix.

Thank god for that!

Just open to perspectives on... on the void.

Like, before it opens up and swallows me.

We have to get back to the lab.

I... I don't trust Dr. Nealon, Cosima.

No, of course not. Why would you?

Delphine put him in charge.

But I will say one thing.

He's twice the researcher Leekie ever was.

He's an M.D., he's a brilliant geneticist, and he wants a meeting this afternoon.

That's four things. Are you taking this bait?

I just need to know, because I've got other patients to see.

Yeah. Yeah.

There's work to be done.

Okay.

Take one of these.

Can I get the old one?

Mm-hmm.

New day, new phones. Blue as the skies of Lesbos.

[Kids shouting]

Alison: I could b*at her, Donnie.

I could b*at her like a French meringue.

I know, hon.

I'm not gonna let her put our kids in a ghetto.

Okay, easy, it's just the next district over.

Have you seen the playgrounds? There's no rubber mulch.

It's gravel, it's like the '70s.

Still, we agreed we can't afford a campaign.

At least not until I get back on my feet.

Well, I told her that I'm running.

What? Ali, we are spread very thin right now...

We might have to sell the house.

And what would we do with a corpse in the garage?

Whoa! Ixnay on that, come on!

Well, what would we do?

Are we gonna give it to the next family, or do we take it with us?

Okay. I know you're upset, but come on...

Team Hendrix, down but not out, am I right?

Fist me. Fist me!

Fist you?

Dad! My cleats!

Okay. That's the same.

Hi!

Hello, Mrs. Hendrix.

Hello, Ramon.

What are you doing here?

Are you kidding? Half my clients are soccer moms.

You're selling pills at a kids' sports tournament?

Speaking of which, haven't, um... haven't heard from you in a while.

Guess you're still clean, huh?

Yes. Very much so.

Nice. Congratulations.

Thank you.

I'm actually getting out of the business myself, so...

You... you're closing your business?

Going to college.

Yeah.

Say hi to your mother.

I will.

Who's that?

That is an opportunity.

[Punk rock music playing] ♪ One! ♪

[Shouting]

Yeah!

Nice one! Whoo!

Go! Go!

[Mobile ringing]

Aww...

Are you going to take that? Come on!

I have to take this.

Okay, okay.

Hey, Art.

No, that's Detective Bell to you.

Wow, back on the job. Congrats!

Yeah, well, two days in, I'm already questioning it.

Listen, a woman came in complaining about an incident at a hotel last night.

Yeah ?

And when I saw a photo of the suspects, I immediately took the case.

Sarah, they look like that Prolethean freak, Mark.

They both do.

Do it, do it! Nice!

Wait. Did one of them...

Yes, yes, yes! have a mustache and the other one have a scar?

Now, see, how do you know that?

Did they hurt the woman?

Well, I just started questioning, but I'm telling you, she's freaked the hell out.

Okay... You need to tell me everything you know about these guys.

Listen, I got to get back inside.

We're gonna continue this conversation.

Okay.

All right.

So, that Castor clone who was in Marion's basement, he's gone.

He's... escaped or... or being released.

Please, you know...

Can you stay? You don't have to go.

No, I have to.

They've got Helena, I've got to try.

They...

Yeah.

You'd really do all this for us?

Don't freak out.

Kira's my daughter, too.

I'd do anything for her.

Go save your sister.

Okay, I'm back!

[Screaming]

Go.

Aah!

[Stopwatch beeps] Now.

[Coughing, gasping]

Go.

[Labored breathing]

Go again.

Stop!

Stop. Stop the stress tests.

We've got two more cycles to run.

She's pregnant.

Blood work results.

[Helena gasping]

Just be still. You're going to feel the water rattle around in there for a while.

Helena, I'm Doctor Virginia Coady.

I know it doesn't seem like it, but I'm very happy to meet you.

[Inhales deeply]

Felix: And for the invalid, we got some hot tea here... with just a little snip of laudanum.

I got some sugar on the tray, but if you wanted honey, then I...

[Sighs] You shouldn't be up.

Come on.

Sit down.

Oh...

You okay? Does it hurt?

Come on.

Chin up.

Sarah will come around.

She will.

Do you think so?

Really?

I fear I've lost her, Felix, and my granddaughter.

And I might be able to bear that if I thought I'd... made them safe, but... [Sighs]

Clearly, I have not.

Okay, okay.

So do something about it.

I've done quite enough already.

No. Nonsense.

Hang on.

Look what I've got.

What is that?

It's a clean cell.

For contacting your dodgy friends.

For scheming and maneuvering and setting things in motion.

I have no use for it.

Yes, you do.

I'm sorry, love, but you don't get to sit this one out.

None of us do.

Get to work.

Scott: Don't.

Why, are you nervous?

No, I get motion sickness.

[Mockingly] "I get motion sickness."

I'm just helping.

Stop it.

Oh.

Good afternoon.

You're looking well.

As are your latest results.

Yeah, I'm valuable data to you.

Just like Sarah's ovary.

Hard science requires hard choices.

You've made them yourself in your own treatment.

The difference now is...

We make those choices together.

Okay.

So when were you going to tell us about the Castor dude who escaped?

It was my first item of business.

How'd you find out?

I don't... I don't think we're sharing yet, are we?

Scott has a question for you.

Uh... I...

Well...

If we had the original genome, that would solve everything.

So...

Was it really destroyed?

Or is that just another classified secret?

Believe me, I want your source material as much as you do.

But thanks to the Duncans, it's lost to us.

Why the Duncans?

Leda started as a m*llitary experiment under their guidance.

Yeah, I got that.

When the m*llitary shut down the Duncans, DYAD recruited them.

They brought the Leda genome with them, but they had sourced genetic donors for two lines...

A female subject and a male.

Professor Duncan didn't mention male clones.

No, he didn't.

So who were these original donors?

The Duncans took that to their graves.

Falsified the records, hid their identities.

We thought Castor d*ed on the vine.

So, both the Leda and Castor originals are... lost.

Correct.

Yet another mystery.

So what, that's it? I just go home?

If we find them, we'll charge them, okay?

Yeah, what if they come after me?

Look, if you see either... Excuse me a second.

Hey, you can't show your face around here.

Are you out of your g*dd*mn mind?

What did you learn?

Nothing. They're long gone.

Is that her?

Yes.

Can I talk to her?

Absolutely not. Abs...

Hi, I'm, uh, Detective Beth Childs.

I-I'd like to ask you a few follow-up questions.

Beth, I got this.

Look, I know what these guys are capable of.

If you could just walk me through what happened.

It'll be brief.

Woman: Then, when I tried to leave, Rudy... if that's even his real name...

He got this look in his eye.

And he was... like he was angry for the other one, Seth.

Like I had insulted them by rejecting him.

I thought he was gonna k*ll me.

Then what happened?

They went through my ID, they wrote down all my information in this little notebook, and then Seth yanked out a piece of my hair and put it in a bag.

Like, what is that? Is that a trophy?

It's as*ault.

Yeah.

But I consented to the first guy, so that's not r*pe, right?

I'm sorry you had to go through that.

Yeah, me, too.

It's time to get you home.

Thank you for talking to me.

Thank you.

You pull something like that again, you are out of my life.

Look, they've got Helena, okay?

I'm trying to figure out what these maniacs are after.

I'm just grasping at straws.

She says they have the same tattoo.

Left forearm, picture of a two-headed horse.

Stay they hell away from here.
Alison: Here he comes.

Honey, it's not too late to reconsider this.

No, no, just follow my lead.

It's just sometimes, when you get started on something, you can go a little...

Shoop! You know what I mean?

No.

Hello, Ramon.

What's up? Donnie Hendrix.

Who's this guy?

This is my husband.

He's totally trustworthy.

So what's this about?

We would like to buy your business.

Your inventory and your client list, everything.

We'll take it off your hands, and you can go off to college and make something of yourself.

Oh, cool, what are you studying, bro?

Ah! With all due respect, what makes you think you have the stones for this line of work?

Oh, we have the stones.

Yeah. Don't doubt our stones, we have ample stones.

You said it yourself.

Most of your clients are in my circle.

So what do you say?

Doctors are rich.

Some doctors are rich.

Aah!

Aah!

[Panting]

[Mobile ringing]

sh*t!

Hey.

Are you at your pick-up location?

I'm not going back to base.

What do you mean? We have orders.

I know you're glitching, brother.

It was the booze, I'm fine.

Seth, I saw.

How long has it been happening?

A week. Maybe two.

Then there's no choice.

I'm not gonna stand by and watch it happen, you hear?

It's getting worse.

I don't know what to do.

[Metallic clank]

We're gonna finish the job.

According to the myth, Castor was a warrior horseman.

Bit of a badass by the looks of it.

Well, that fits with what Cal found.

He says the horse tattoo is some kind of black ops insignia.

That makes sense. They're purpose-raised, untraceable... The perfect ghost soldiers.

So, why did they take the woman's hair?

I don't know. Medical testing?

If he got a follicle, that's like a gold mine.

This doesn't get me any closer to Helena, Cos.

Well, there is one option, Sarah, but you're not gonna like it.

I'm not going to S.

She can get you in touch with Paul.

Paul can piss off and take S with him.

They're the bloody problem.

Which makes them... our best lead.

Man: All mangoes are golden.

Nothing golden is cheap. Conclusion...

Scorpion: Did he say mangoes?

All mangoes are cheap.

Is that a sound conclusion, based on those statements?

We like mangoes.

Please concentrate.

All mangoes are cheap. True or false.

Where are these mangoes?

Where are these mangoes?

Do I have to explain the exercise again?

I would like to see these mangoes.

The doctor asked a question.

I met your brother.

He's ugly.

Okay. That's enough.

Keep provoking them, we'll never get any mangoes.

Silence, insect!

Coady: Helena.

Let's walk.

I will say this about the place...

The air is good at night, and I can smoke where I want.

You must be very early on. A week? Two?

Makes you quite a special case, doesn't it?

Ask the last person who told me that.

[Chuckles]

The Mark-faced boys, they are your babies?

They came to me when they were very young.

The irony of it? I never wanted kids.

Didn't think it was for me.

Next thing I know, I've got more than I can count.

How unpleasant.

I think you should know how you got here, Helena.

Your family sold you out.

Sarah sold you out.

They decided you were expendable.

I don't believe you.

You can be sure of this...

You're not expendable to me.

Or my boys.

You've overcome so much.

Your upbringing, your biology, your fate.

We're going to find out how.

[Sighs]

[Knock on door]

Hi.

She here?

Yeah.

Hang on though.

She got three broken ribs, all right?

And I think she might be concussed, because she's being weirdly straightforward, so go easy on her.

Mm-hmm.

Hey, S, I need to get in touch with Paul.

He's gone dark.

Got what he wanted.

Then we're done.

Cal's doing you no favors pretending you can have a life here.

Save it.

You have to take Kira away.

I'm not taking advice from somebody who sold my sister.

That was my decision, and I'll live with it.

But Kira shouldn't have to.

I don't know where Castor comes from, what they want, who they answer to.

Like you, I'm in the dark.

But you don't fight in these conditions.

You run.

I know. I've been there before.

When?

In London, when you were young, the forces against us grew beyond my grasp until...

I did what any mother would do.

I gathered my children... and I left.

Bailey Downs, kiss your troubles good-bye.

Ramon: We got norco, benzo, oxy, purple drank, you name it.

Street value... 80 grand.

And your cost?

Raw cost?

25. But I have a brand.

I've built up goodwill.

We'll pay for that, too.

What?

Client list?

All in here.

We'll give you 32 for the works.

Whoa, whoa, honey!

Cash.

Or we set up a consignment agreement, so we don't incur all of the risk.

35.

32... firm.

And that's us doing you a favor.

I can live with that.

I'm just gonna talk to my business associate.

Hey! Donnie!

What is your problem?

We don't have anything like that kind of money.

We have cash in our retirement plan, don't we?

This is not just much-needed income.

This is a constituent list.

This is about the election?

It's about our kids.

I have just found my voter base.

And I suspect they will be very loyal supporters, don't you?

[Chuckles]

You little schemer.

Let's do this.

Okay, okay.

Okay.

Open her up.

Yes, ma'am.

[Door opens, dog barking]

[Dog barking]

Sh...

Easy.

Turn around.

Hands on your head.

Middle of the room. Let's go slow.

Why was Sarah in Marion Bowles' basement yesterday?

Ask her.

She wants to talk to you.

She has no idea what she's into here, Cal, and neither do you.

You infiltrated DYAD.

Did you find what you were looking for?

Or no?

Oh, that's why the tactics changed.

The Helena deal and the Castor boys put in play.

You must be real proud of the work they're doing, Paul.

I am...

Very surprised to see you settling.

I had you figured for a roamer.

Yeah? You got a file on me?

Oh, you are a person of interest in many quarters, as you well know.

Come on, man.

That's what designing weapons gets you.

That's ancient history. I got out.

Oh, you got rich, then you got out.

Or does Sarah not know that part?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'd probably keep the secret, too.

"w*r profiteer" doesn't really... square with this whole thing.

Where's Helena?

The deal that was cut... was to buy Sarah time and space.

So why isn't she taking it?

You've met her.

If she keeps coming, it's going to end badly for everyone, I guarantee it.

And you need to tell her that, Cal, because she won't hear it from me.

You need to get her out of here.

Are we gonna live with Cal?

I don't know.

Maybe, when he's set up.

Why?

How do you feel about that?

I want to.

Yeah. I think I want to, too.

Can we sleep in the fort tonight?

Ah, yes! Yes!

But, first, you have to take a bath, yeah?

You get the monkey into the cave.

[Laughs]

[Vibrating]

[Ringing]

Monkey, it's ready.

[Clicks tongue] Uh-oh, monkey...

Where are you?

Mommy!

Let her go.

Our last conversation was cut short.

She's not part of this.

She'll help us focus.

Monkey, look at me.

Don't cry, baby.

You're gonna be okay.

What do you want?

Professor Duncan came to you when he resurfaced.

Did he share his research?

Yes. Disks and scribbles.

Do you want that? Tissue samples.

Duncan had tissue samples of the Castor original.

Kira...

Ask your mom where they are.

I don't know anything about that.

Think hard, Miss Manning.

Hey, hey, buddy, buddy, buddy.

You got... you got a couple bucks?

No, man, I'm sorry.

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

It's not a good time, my friend.

Hey, help me out. Come on. Come on. Come on.

Just... come on, help me out, huh?

All right.

Come on.

Just let me see what I got.

You must be the boyfriend.

Hey.

I have no business with you. Just let me pass.

Hey, well, you know what?

My brother's not to be disturbed.

I can't leave here... empty-handed.

Don't touch her, please.

I've got people... who count on me.

You mean Seth?

Some doctors are rich.

What?

You look after him, don't you?

Protecting your brothers?

How do you know about Seth?

Um, we were in Turkey once, and I had this dish. Uh-huh, yeah.

It was lamb dumplings in...

Excuse me? And... and yogurt.

All right, man.

Is that what this is about? Protecting your brother?

No, no...

No! All fools are rich!

So... so, you take...

They come...

Aah! Aaaaah!

[Seth screaming]

What's that?

[Screaming]

No!

Mommy!

That's Seth.

Is that Seth? That's Seth, isn't it? Mommy!

He's sick, isn't he?

They tampered with you.

Shut up!

Please!

Shut up!

No, no! Please!

Shut up!

I don't have the original genome!

I don't have it. Please, leave my kid!

Aah!

[Sobbing] Please! Please!

Mommy!

[Groaning]

Thank you.

Seth: Aaah!

Put it down!

Whoa.

I didn't touch him, man.

Put it down!

Seth: Ohh!

Easy.

He... he just went down.

I...

Ohh!

[Moans]

Oh!

It's all right, it's all right.

I'm here, brother.

Don't hold on.

Go easy.

[Heart b*at slowing]

I love you.

[Sighs]

So...

It's gonna be an adventure, monkey.

You're gonna see glaciers and hot springs and all kinds of neat stuff.

I know it's tough, baby, but we have to be strong.

Okay. Say bye to S, yeah?

Mm-hmm.

I'll miss you.

[Sighs]

Tell me I'm doing the right thing.

You are, you're doing the right thing.

I make her a target, right? I'm dangerous.

Yes, you are. You're a good mum.

Good mum.

Time?

Mm-hmm.

Cal: Bye.

Please, take care.

Thank you.

My people will get you out of the country.

Don't contact yours until then, understood?

Yeah.

[Sighs]

You're a good man, Cal.

[Chuckles]

Thank you.

She'll be okay, I promise.

Yeah.

You?

Mm. I'll see you.

Okay.

I'm gonna put a stop to this.

And then we'll be together, yeah?

There's reindeer in Iceland.

[Laughs]

Yeah? Did your dad tell you that?

He's gonna be with you the whole time.

I know that.

I love you.

Okay.

So, what now?

[Sniffles]

Um, now, we find Helena, and we finish this sh*t.

How?

Castor has her.

So we go to the one we know... Mark.

Okay?

Mark?

Mark, are you all right?

Go back to sleep.

What are you doing?

I'm almost done. Go to bed.

[Water running]

[Muffled] Aah! Aah!

Aaaaah!

[Banging on door] Open the door!

Sarah, we need to talk.

What is it you're not telling me?

I'm not how you think I am.

Don't worry, I can explain.

We've lost contact with Mark.

I need Rudy back in the field.

Have you two made your decision for school trustee ?

Do you seriously think people are gonna trust their children to an infamous alcoholic ?
