03x06 - Oz is Oz

Post by bunniefuu »

Ten years ago, the
animal population mutated,

endangering human life on the planet.

Our team managed to cure the animals,

but at a terrible cost.

In an attempt to return
the planet to the animals,

a secretive group called
the Shepherds released a gas

that sterilized all of humanity.

And then, labmade creatures
called "hybrids"

devastated the West Coast,

so a massive barrier was constructed

to protect the rest of North America,

but new breeds have started to appear,

so we reassembled our team.

We battle on many fronts,

searching for a cure to sterility

while racing to stop the
hybrids and a brutal t*rror1st,

who is using them to end the human race.

The fight for mankind's
survival has just begun.

Previously on Zoo...

Dad? Mitch.

I'm sorry, he's dead.

She's taking us to see
someone named Abendegos,

who's been waiting for Mr. Duncan.

Abigail! NYPD! Freeze!

I can get Isaac back. You want Isaac,

you bring me Clementine Lewis.

- Deal is on.
- Perfect.

By day's end, you'll be
holding your son again.

We ran some tests on Clem's
blood... she's pregnant.

Reiden found out about it,
and she's been abducted.

I didn't k*ll Leanne. She
was dead when I found her.

- It's a boy.
- Tell The Gentlemen

that bidding will begin at $80 million.

Jackson...

Jackson...

He chose Jackson.

Thank you.

She's alive.

Barely.

Make sure to bring
the razorbacks inside.

Yes, ma'am.

The bidding will begin at $80 million.

We have confirmation

she is carrying a viable male fetus.

$80 million to the gentleman
from the Russian Federation.

Do I have anyone with 90?

Very good. 90 to the gentleman

from the United Arab Emirates.

Who do I have at 100?

A morethanfair price for
the first pregnant woman

in a decade.

Jackson, if that clicker didn't do this,

does that mean you summoned
these animals with your mind?

Sorta.

- Jackson!
- You really want to play

20 Questions right now?

No!

What are you doing back here?

Hey, yeah, sorry.

I'm late. They made
me park in the garage.

No valet... can you
believe that? Anyway...

Dad?

Hey.

Hey.

Okay, look, we can't leave
here without the hybrid, okay?

We got to get to the truck,
hook it to the trailer,

- and get the hell out of here.
- Okay, on the count of three,

- make a run for it.
- Perfect.

- Three!
- Tessa!

I am under the distinct
impression that this is not

a normal hospital.

Remain calm, everything
is under control.

Earmuffs.

What?

Um... come on.

Back up, back up, back
up, back up, back up.

Back up, back up! That's good.

- Did you do that?
- No.

Maybe. I don't know. Come on, let's go.

That went well.

So you're pregnant? That's cool.

This is so not how I
wanted you to find out.

Freeze!

Don't sh**t! Don't sh**t!

Don't hurt her!

Drop your w*apon.

Clem...

Let us go, or I k*ll
humanity's last hope.

Put your g*ns down.

g*ns down now!

Okay.

Guess we'll be going now.

Word is out.

It doesn't matter where you go,

you won't be able to protect her.

Well, he's right about one thing...

You are now the most
important person in the world.

Let's go find out why.

You know, most people,

they just worry about
running into their ex

at the grocery store,

not arresting them for m*rder.

I told you, I didn't k*ll Leanne.

And, against my better judgment,

I'm starting to believe you.

But you've been arrested.

There's no takebacks.

That is an ocularchip lens.

It has a whole lot more on
it than decryption power.

Leanne was wearing it
when she was m*rder*d.

It will tell us who k*lled her.

It'd be a little easier without these.

Take her down to 2.

We need to assemble a team.

Everything's on hold
until we can get you well.

You're not listening to me.

I want Jackson Oz.

This is not some personal vendetta.

He's not part of the plan.

He's part of mine.

Quick, get her to the stasis t*nk.

Yes, sir.

We're less than 48 hours

from the launch of the TXgas,

which the Noah Objective
promises will safely eliminate

the mutated animals.

Don't believe everything
you hear on the news.

Abigail.

Something you need to see.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Blue Diaspora.

You can't work on this out in the open.

I can do what I like.

The council forbade you from
continuing your father's work.

Hybrids are too dangerous.

The animals are still susceptible

to the Mother Cell.

The mutation will rise again,

stronger and immune to any cure

humankind can come up with.

Mass extinction of the
entire animal kingdom

is sure to follow.

Well, your father's not gonna approve.

Well, he's not here.

Actually...

he is.

Arrived an hour ago.

Who's that next to your father?

My brother.

The useless, drunken
safariguide brother?

What's he doing here?

I have no idea.

He's chained, shouldn't
be able to get free.

How does this thing fit
in your sister's plan?

"Plan." She has a plan beyond
just unleashing pain and terror?

The people holding him were
waiting for a Mr. Duncan.

We think he might be Abigail's
partner in this, somehow.

What happened?

So definitely not chained anymore.

I need to study this Abendegos.

Do you have any tranquilizers on board?

Like, dinosaur tranquilizers?

Yeah.

I'll go prepare a sedative.

Why didn't you tell me?

You have a lot going on.

Clem, you're the only pregnant
woman in the entire world.

And you have a biodrive

surgically implanted in your brain.

We all have our issues.

It's got to have something
to do to your background.

Your Glazier's disease
and the ghost gene

maybe had a contraindication
with the cure serum.

Maybe, negated the
effects of the TXgas.

Okay. I need you to stop

acting like a scientist and
start acting like a grandfather.

Hey, nope. You don't get
to use that word ever again.

You can't deny it.

This is happening.

Yeah.

I'm trying to figure out why.

So we can come up with
patriarchal nicknames later.

Like way later.

We've got a long road ahead of us.

The team is heading back to pick us up.

We need to dissolve this into a solution

and then we should be ready to
sedate your friend Abendegos.

Great.

Abe, how are you holding up

with Isaac and everything?

Not well.

But I've gotten good
at distracting myself.

Keeping myself busy.

You know, before they took Isaac away,

I was working on a synthetic
reproductive hormone,

based on the NLRP2 protein

and stem cells harvested from
animal cerebrospinal fluid.

Animal stem cells.

That makes sense, they
weren't affected by the TXgas.

Exactly, but none of the
animal samples I tested

yielded any positive results.

But these hybrids are different.

They display a hypergrowth property.

I believe their stem
cells could be the key.

So, Clem and her being pregnant,

how does that factor into all of this?

The child has a unique protein.

Unlike anything I've ever seen.

It displays even greater
potential than the NLRP2 protein

at synthesizing the reproductive
hormone that we need.

I'm going to call it the CLMprotein.

After Clementine.

All right, so Clem's baby,

plus hybrid stem cells,

could solve the sterility problem?

That's the idea, at least.

We just need a cerebrospinal
fluid sample from Abendegos

to prove it.

How hard could that be?

Well, here we go.

What is that?

A security measure.

Okay. Got it.

Well, let's see who
k*lled Leanne Ducovny.

So, how do you do it?

Control the animals.

The lions in Portland,
that Noah's Ark back there?

My father.

He did genetic experiments
on me when I was a kid.

And I think the gas
that sterilized people

activated something in me.

You must hate him.

Yeah.

And no.

Part of me thinks that
he couldn't help it.

Between him and my sister,

I'm beginning to think that
there's something tainted

in the Oz bloodline.

Like, we're cursed.

Jackson, you can't really believe that.

Jackson.

We're ready in the vehicle bay.

When we land,

I think that you should get as
far away from me as possible.

Hope you boys cooked up a good plan.

If we don't put this guy down ASAP,

it's gonna give turbulence
a whole new meaning.

Remember.

Straight to the heart.

Straight to the what?

How are you gonna get close
enough to s*ab it in the heart?

I'm gonna give him what he wants.

Me.

Be careful, rafiki.

Don't sh**t unless I say so.

Ready.

Don't sh**t.

Little help here?!

Okay, Leanne's in her office.

Let's find out who k*lled her.

If this turns out to be you,
I'm gonna be very disappointed.

It's over, Leanne.

Robert would roll over in his grave

if he knew what you'd become.

My father made me what I am.

You're never gonna get away with this.

I already have.

We have the MelvatoxB.

We don't need you anymore.

Abigail.

They were connected?
How did I miss that?

You notice how Abigail
said "we" in the recording?

"We have the MelvatoxB."

Yeah.

She must be working with a partner.

We need to find Abigail.

Or her partner.

Well, it would be easier if one
of us weren't in police custody.

I'll talk to the captain,
tell him we have a new suspect.

Abigail Westbrook.

There's only so much the t*nk can do.

A lot is up to her.

She'll survive.

Her work isn't finished yet.

Hi, angel.

Dad, you're back.

Hi.

What happened to your face?

It's just an accident.

So, I finished with General
Davies and the TXgas.

We're ready to launch.

That's great.

Um, I saw that you brought Jackson

and the rest of his team here.

Why?

Wasn't part of the plan.

I know.

Here's the thing about Jackson.

He's a useless piece of flesh
who's squandering the Oz name?

Or, sorry, is it
"dishonors the Oz name"?

Jackson's grown up a
lot in the last year.

Okay, so...

what, you suddenly trust him?

Are you gonna tell him the plan?

Is that why you brought him home?

I brought him home because he's sick.

Very sick.

But Dr. Morgan

has found a way to cure
Jackson and the animals.

So Mitch Morgan is as
brilliant as we believed.

Yeah, and then some.

He might even be a match for you.

Do you think he could
cr*ck Blue Diaspora?

Why are you asking about Blue Diaspora?

You were told not to do this.

Problem with the hybrids
is they were uncontrollable.

Like feral animals.

But I fixed it.

You used human DNA.

Your DNA? Abigail.

I thought you'd be happy.

This was your project.

And I fixed it for you.

We invested everything
in formulating the TXgas

and reversing the animal mutation.

But that is only a temporary solve.

This is the real solve.

I'm calling him Abendegos.

Really is something.

I have to get back to Jackson.

We'll talk about this more later.

Do you want my help?

He's my brother, after all.

Maybe I should finally meet him.

No, I have all the help
I need with Dr. Morgan.

I'll be back.

I promise.

Abigail Westbrook,

the most wanted woman in the
United States, remains at large.

The authorities warn, do...

I just spoke to Jackson,

told him about his baby
sister's latest homicide

and the MelvatoxB.

Jackson has a lead on someone
who might be Abigail's partner,

somebody named Mr. Duncan.

Charles Duncan?

Maybe.

Who's that?

He's a ghost.

He's public enemy number
one for the Shepherd hunters.

There are rumors that he's
a b*mb maker or a scientist,

but nobody knows where he is
or even what he looks like.

So, do you think this Mr. Duncan

could be the "w"
Abigail was referring to?

The one who helped with the MelvatoxB?

There's one way to find out.

Yahtzee. Charles Duncan.

He supervised the transfer of assets

when Reiden bought Melvatox.

Took possession of 50,000
units of MelvatoxB.

50,000?

You're not gonna carry
that out the front door.

Is there an address there?

44 East 138th.

Loading dock that exits onto Park.

Traffic cam at the end of the alley.

The transfer of assets form

is dated November 7, 3:14 p.m.

I have something.

It's too dark.

I can't see his face.

I have a program that will clear it.

- Well, how long will it take?
- It's hard to say,

but if he's the ghost that you describe,

it'll be worth the wait.

All right, Mr. Duncan,

you've been the center
of all this suffering.

Let's see who you really are.

Jamie and Logan found
out who k*lled Leanne.

It was Abigail.

What?

How is your sister connected
to the CEO of Reiden?

It's starting to seem like
she's connected to everything.

Come quick. It's the kids.

They're raiding the kids' facilities.

No one was responding from Reiden,

so they're going in by force.

Despite the government's

initial cooperation with Reiden,

the lack of transparency

from the Reiden officials and
the recent death of its CEO

have led to today's forced entry

of the Reiden Children's
Holding Facility.

Charlie, you take 3.

Clear.

Let's go.

No children inside.

Breach.

Nothing.

Where are they?

Room clear.

So far, there has been
no sign of the children.

We are receiving word now
that the children are not,

I repeat, not in the facility.

No, no, no. It's got to be a mistake.

Where have the children gone?

I promise we are gonna
figure this out, okay?

Whenwhen we get back on the plane,

I'm gonna run every test in the book.

Tests?

Tests, that's the
last thing that I want.

Yeah, that's kind of
how science works, Clem.

Thank you, Professor. I am aware.


I spent 90% of my life
under a microscope.

Well, those microscopes saved your life.

It was awful.

And painful.

And it made me feel like...

I wasn't even a person.

My baby will have a normal life.

You and I both know that's not possible.

Your baby is gonna be
the opposite of normal...

because it's the most important
thing that has happened

in a long, long time.

And I understand you
want to protect your kid.

And I want to protect mine.

Clem, you and this baby
are all that I have.

A parent has one job in life.

Let me do mine.

Did you get any information?

No, I called my contacts
in the army and Marines.

No one knows a thing.

I've been on hold with the
State Department for 20 minutes.

Hundreds of kids don't just disappear.

Someone saw something.

We may have found something.

When Logan called, he
said right before Abigail

k*lled Leanne, she mentioned a
certain drug called MelvatoxB.

When Isaac called,
he said that they were

giving him candy for breakfast.

What if the MelvatoxB

!sis what Reiden is giving the kids?

That's exactly what we were thinking.

And it turns out that MelvatoxB

has a very specific
radioactive signature.

How could the government sign
off on a plan to kidnap kids

and feed them poison?

In low doses it's perfectly safe.

We don't think they're
trying to poison the kids.

But we do think that they
gave us a way to find them.

See, we're talking
about thousands of kids

with thousands of doses.

That would produce a very significant

radioactive footprint.

Highways have scanners

that send out alerts
if there's radiation.

Which cops have access to.

We need to call Logan.

Follow the pills, find the kids.

She needs to pull through.

This plan does not work without her.

Transfusion,

but I just need to
speak to you in private.

Okay. What can I do for you?

I know we both
doublechecked the protocol,

ensured the viability
of the genomic fossils.

But I need you to level with me.

Is Jackson gonna survive this procedure?

Are we speaking as scientists?

Or as parents?

I understand.

I feared as much.

Look, you know I will do whatever I can.

What are you doing here?

Jackson's gonna die, isn't he?

If you can't cure him and
he can't cure the animals,

what are you going to do?

Blue Diaspora.

We move on to your plan, to the hybrids.

Really?

Really.

But we don't have much time.

Go collect all of your research.

I'll be there soon.

I just, I need to say goodbye.

I love you, Abigail.

I love you, too, Dad.

Hey.

You know, if you asked me to stay,

I'd consider it.

That's tempting, but I can't.

My only living relative
wants to k*ll me,

so the safest place for you is not here.

Look, your sister and your father,

they're not your family.

They might be your blood relatives,

but family is who defines who you are.

Abraham, Dariela, the rest of your team,

that's your family.

I am so sorry that I hurt you.

You are the last person

that I ever wanted to cause any pain.

You saved me.

When I turned my back on
this life and became Dylan,

I never thought I'd find my way back.

You did that for me.

How do you thank the person

that gave you your life back?

You go save the world, genius.

You proud of yourself?

Dad, it's over. I'm fine.

- I'm sorry.
- You had her kidnapped.

- I'm so sorry.
- You had her kidnapped!

How does that even
compute as right to you?!

It's not.

A parent has one job
in this world, right?

She was just doing hers.

I kept telling myself that I
did what any mother would do.

I just wanted my son back.

I'm so sorry, Clem.

A few months ago, I would've
punched you in the mouth

and never talked to you again.

But now that I'm about
to become a mother,

I would've done the same thing.

What happened?

When Logan and I got back,

we found you passed
out in the vehicle bay,

next to the new hybrid.

What were you doing in there?

Where's Clem?

She's with Abe.

He's going to examine her and the baby.

Okay.

- I should be there.
- No.

You should rest.

I'm worried that that
biodrive in your head

is what made you pass out.

Biodrive or not, I got to figure
out what's going on with my daughter.

Well, you can do it from here.

There's years of science
for you to catch up on.

What's this?

It's a surveillance photo of Mr. Duncan,

Abigail's partner.

He's dangerous. A monster.

If I find him, I'm
going to take him down.

That image is almost cleaned
up, so do your research

and let me know when the
program's done with the image.

And, um...

rest up, Grandpa.

That is so not cool.

Well, the baby is healthy.

If it wasn't the only
baby on the planet,

I would say it was a textbook pregnancy.

What about the CLMprotein?

And the stem cells from
Abendegos' spinal fluid?

As long as Clem's baby
continues to develop normally,

we should have enough CLMprotein

to make our synthetic
reproductive hormone.

But?

But I did find something
unexpected when comparing

the genetic samples
from the new hybrids.

Those shared markers prove
that the woolly rhinoceros,

winged hybrid,

and Abendegos are related.

Related?

What if Abigail created the new hybrids

using common DNA as a starting point?

And what that means for
us and ending sterility

is that Abendegos' spinal fluid
only has part of what we need.

We need the stem cells
from all the hybrids

that share the genetic marker.

How many are there?

Given the three samples I've seen,

and their genetic variation,

my best guess is that there
are six breeds altogether.

There are six new hybrids,

and we need spinal
fluid from each of them.

How will we find them?

I don't know.

But if we want to stop
this reproductive problem,

we need to find a way.

I think we've found the kids.

Yeah, radiation signatures
are high upstate,

so the kids should be there,
and the Melvatox pills.

Let's go get our son back.

Good news.

She's turned a corner.

We should be able to pull her out soon.

Good. Good job.

What are you doing?

I hate to do this,

but, I have orders to keep you here.

Orders from who?

Your father.

Well, is he on his way?

No.

No, he has to stay with Jackson.

It's the only way for
the plan to succeed,

cure the animals.

Um...

Jackson is dying.

Not anymore.

I got one for you:

What did the, aardvark
say to the taxi driver?

Dad?

Dad?

Mitch. Mitch!

Dad... no.

No.

No.

Abigail... No.

Get out of my way.

Get out of my way!

- Robert wants it this way!
- I don't care what he wants.

That's my father out
there! Let go of me!

- Let go of me!
- Back off.

- Back off.
- That is my father.

That is my father!

That is my father!

He's doing this for us.

No, he is not!

He's doing this for Jackson!

He chose Jackson.

He chose Jackson.

Jackson. Jackson.

- Jackson.
- Jackson.

Vitals are good.

Blood pressure's stable.

110/80.

Hemoglobin levels are at seven grams.

Team two, get ready to
disconnect the generator

and prep for extraction.

Everyone move into place

to remove Ms. Westbrook from the t*nk.

Wha... Abigail!

Abigail.

I've been looking for you.

Everyone else evacuated.
We got to get out of here.

Abigail, we got to go.

You did it.

You made another hybrid.

I told you, Blue Diaspora
is the only way forward.

- We need to make sure it succeeds.
- We?

- I don't know anything about it.
- Not you.

I have a chopper hiding in Bay 12.

Go get it ready. We'll be right there.

Where are you going?

There's someone else we need.

No! Don't! Get away from him!

Okay, Dr. Morgan, I'm
gonna get you out of here.

We've got a lot of work to do.

Results from the EEG

are showing normal
levels of brain activity.

He's going to be in here a long time.

All right, extraction.

We're ready.

On it.

I'm fine. Is everything in place?

Almost.

Abendegos is gone.

Your brother has him.

Well, then it's a good thing Mr. Duncan

is with my brother.
