01x08 - … And His Two Men and a Baby

Post by bunniefuu »

I'm Tom Swift, inventor, billionaire,

shoe collector extraordinaire.

But none of that was
good enough for my dad.

I thought if I built him
a spaceship to Saturn

I could earn his love.

But his mission ended
tragically, or so I thought.

Turns out it was sabotage.

My father survived the att*ck
and sent me a message capsule

with the data I need
to rescue him from space.

But it exploded
when it entered the atmosphere.

Now I have to find the pieces of that

capsule and reassemble my dad's message.

A global conspiracy called The Road Back

is standing in my way,
so I can only trust my squad:

My best friend Zenzi,
my bodyguard Isaac,

my adopted brother Lino,
and my AI Barclay.

Together we're going to find my father

and bring him home.

AUTO-ATTENDANT:
Decontamination complete.

Gonna finish getting cleaned up.

(PHONE CHIMES) (CLEARS THROAT)

Ah. Lino says he and Mom are almost done

sourcing alloy for
my father's rescue drone.

Glad something's going right.

You know, if you had only
waited for Barclay

to come back online, we could've tracked

the capsule piece accurately.

Okay, we don't have time
to figure out why

Barclay deactivated himself.

In three days, Earth will be at apogee.

I can send an unmanned rescue drone
to Saturn to save my dad.

We still have two pieces left
to find before we can assemble

the full message capsule to locate him.

How are we going to do that
without Barclay?

I've tried jump-starting Barclay's OS,
but nothing's worked.

The only person
who might have answers... is Rowan.

You just want a reason
to look at his face again.

No.

You know what?

(SIGHS) Barclay, who am I?

Barclay, are you shut
down because of Rowan?

(DRONE CHIRPS TWICE)

Are you responding to the name Rowan?

(CHIRPS TWICE)

Rowan. (CHIRPS TWICE)

I have tried texting... You know who...

And he's not even ghosting me.

He's gone full corpse.

(LAUGHING) Okay, all right.

Well, while you're waiting for

the Ghost of Kissmas Past
to hit you back,

you should talk to Isaac

about how you almost put
your mouth on his mouth.

You've been avoiding him all day.

Oh.

You're talking avoidance?

Wasn't Congressman-
who-could-get-it Eskol

blowing your phone up all mission?

Uh... no.

Those text pings blew our cover.

Those were reminders,
and I stay on silent.

(SCOFFS) If you want
us to have a chance of

getting those capsule pieces,

figure things out between you and Isaac.

(PHONE BUZZING)

(MOUTHS)

Rowan... (DRONE BEEPS TWICE)

I have questions.

ROWAN (OVER PHONE): And I have answers.

I'm at your front gate.
I need to speak with you.

Alone.

Let me put my Rowan uniform on.

(GROANING)

TOM: Why did your blood fix
the antidote that saved Isaac?

And why were you there in
when Isaac saved my dad?

The Road Back injects their operatives

with a thallium antidote
to build a tolerance.

And in , I was
assigned to tail Barton.

So you've been stalking
my family for years.

Why did Barclay shut down
seconds after I said your name?

I will help you fix your AI
if you help me first.

Are you familiar with Andrita Lehman?

The electromagnetics pioneer?

Yes. She's brilliant.

That's why The Road Back

plans to force her
to make a dangerous w*apon.

She's a target.

TOM: We have The Road Back's hit list

and Andrita Lehman

isn't on it.

You think that's the only list?

The Road Back is targeting
hundreds of innovators.

And Andrita, she's...

She's my family.

(INHALES)

So your family member just happens to be

a scientist targeted by
a deadly global conspiracy?

I altered the intel on her
location to buy us time.

Please.

I have no resources to help her

on my own.

But you do, Tom.

Why should I believe
anything that you say?

What if I told you something
that could get me k*lled?

When I found out about Andrita,

I also discovered that
the head of The Road Back...

(SIGHS) ...is Susannah Robb.

Our biggest investor, Susannah Robb?

(STAMMERING): What are you saying?

I took these in Eskol's office.

Susannah's family trust transferred

tens of millions of dollars

to Eskol's congressional campaign.

She basically bought him that office.

He owes her favors.

And her idea of a favor
is a k*lling spree.

She used Eskol's company
to att*ck my dad's ship.

You once told me
I was on the wrong side.

I agree.

I'll help you fix Barclay
after you help me fix this.

We have to get to Andrita
before The Road Back does.

Please.

Susannah "no volume in her hair" Robb

is the head of The Road Back.

Unbelievable.

She's been coming and going
from Swift Enterprises

as a VIP guest for weeks.

(CHUCKLES) And you know, Eskol pretended

like he just meet her the other day.

Unless maybe she doesn't
tell him everything.

No.

They know each other well.

Sorry. I was listening.

Or maybe his little dates
were also just an act.

(GASPS) Rude.

Tom, come get your friend.

Tom.

- Hmm?
- Question.

Answer.

Why did you wear
that shirt to go undercover?

Are we doing camouflage
for a cotton candy factory?

(CHUCKLING) TOM: Well,
I know you ain't cracking jokes

in that Dress-for-Less suit.

- Ho, ho, ho.
- ISAAC: At least he blends in.

You look like a Kool-Aid accident.

Okay. (ZENZI GASPS)

Not y'all two bonding.
Ugh. (BOTH CHUCKLING)

Anyways, Rowan the entertainer,

you said you altered Andrita's
info with The Road Back,

- right?
- Yes, to give us a head start.

Why?

Andrita's keycard hasn't
been swiped at her lab

in over a month.

- What?
- TOM: And her car was found abandoned

two days ago
in a strip mall parking lot.

Well, when did she go off the grid?

ROWAN: I don't know.

I... I wasn't tracking her before this.

I came to you as soon as her
name showed up on the list.

Is there security camera footage?

All the cameras had been disabled.

If that's accurate, it might
be too late to save her.

Hey, before we get there,

The air is pretty clear
out here in Seattle, isn't it?

I... I'll bet you a Prada bag

Motion detection and video.

To keep an eye on the perimeter.

TOM: Yeah.

Why the hell are you in my home?

TOM: You're in danger, girl.

We thought you were missing, and...

(WHISPERING): Shh. I'm not missing.

I'm on leave.

Come. Come here.

(SHUSHING)

Would you stop organizing?

I like it that way.

(BABY COOING) I'm sorry.

I-I just can't let
a woman on my vision board

leave yesterday's sandwich on her table.

I have insider information
on The Road Back.

I came to Tom and his friends for help

once I discovered
you were on their hit list.

And who are you, exactly?

You don't recognize him?

We can deal with that later.

All of The Road Back's targets
are tech leaders

at the top of their field,
just like you.

Your expertise
in electromagnetism, hovercrafts...

We believe they want
to manipulate your science

to create a w*apon.

A w*apon?

Even if this

shadowy cabal wanted the
hovercrafts that I discussed,

the metal alloy that's
needed for levitation...

- doesn't exist...
- Doesn't exist yet.

We're not playing you.

ISAAC: These people came
after Tom's father and made it

look like an accident.

Andrita, when will your husband be home?

My "husband" is a half-empty tube
in a freezer near Seattle.

TOM: Okay.

See, we stan a queen who does it all.

(LAUGHS)

Just about all.

Hey, this chaos is
my biggest achievement.

You'd be surprised
at what you can achieve

when you let go of
what you thought "perfect"

was gonna look like.

I chose me
instead of delaying my future.

I also never have
to share takeout, so...

(ALARM BEEPING)

I set up surveillance
around the perimeter

of your property.

The motion sensor just got tripped.

(CHIMES)

The Road Back. They found you.

Let's go, come on.

- They're a hundred yards out.
- Wait.

What if I talk to them
and explain that my research,

- it can't be weaponized?
- ROWAN: The man approaching

is one of their best assassins.

He'll k*ll you just to make sure.

Andrita, where do you keep
the baby's food?

The-the bottles? The formula?

Andrita!

We have to go before
we have no choice but to fight.

Then we split up.

And you take my baby with you.

I can't put my baby in harm's way.

And if they're after me,

then splitting up will
buy you time to escape

- by leading them away.
- They're here.

- (BABY CRYING)
- ISAAC: We're out of time.

Splitting up is the only way this works.

I would never build
anyone a w*apon willingly,

but if they get to my baby...

I'll help Andrita escape.

Then you'll have to stay hidden
until we can get you back to your baby.

We got to go now. (BABY CRYING)

(CRYING): I love you so much, Kahlil.

Mommy loves you so much.

Here, keep him safe, please.

I'll go out the back
door, and the rest of you

go out the back window.
It leads to the lake, okay?

I promise we're gonna get
your son back to you, okay?

Oh. (STAMMERING)

I told you not to open
the door without...

I thought you were my food delivery.

- Sorry.
- Uh, it's okay.

I, uh... I had to talk to you.

All that weirdness between Tom and me...

Oh, you don't have to explain.

I'm happy for you.

You know, you and Tom
always kind of had this thing...

No, Tom wasn't the problem.

When I came out of that coma
and almost kissed him...

...I was thinking about you.

I think about you all the time.

I know I shouldn't because
we work together, but I...

I needed to tell you.

Can you say something?

You know, the old me would've said

all the right things in this moment

to make this all okay so that
you could feel comfortable

and I could compartmentalize, but I...

I can't do that anymore.

You're saying you don't think
there's something between us?

I'm saying that it doesn't matter
because it's too late.

Today, I realized that I am

stronger and braver

than I have
ever given myself credit for.

ESKOL: Zenzi, where do
you keep your bottle opener?

Thinking that we should
open this bottle of red.

(EXHALES)

- Isaac...
- I... I shouldn't have intruded.

Have a good night.

(WHIRRING) (CHUCKLES, SNAPS FINGERS)

Thank you for rebooting Barclay.

I should be thanking you.

If you hadn't saved Kahlil,

my whole life would've...

I couldn't have lived with the guilt.

I have to ask.

Andrita isn't really family, is she?

Why lie to me, Rowan?

Because I didn't think someone like you

would help someone like me.

I needed a favor,

but I have nothing
to offer you in return.

Maybe offer me a little faith

that there is more to me than just fits.

Hmm? (CHUCKLES)

- I believe you now.
- Okay.

(BOTH LAUGH)

I don't know why
I'm feeling this vulnerability vomit,

but you have a way of making me

open up.

That never happens.

Why not?

Because you can fall.

Or you can fly.

Uh... Ooh. Yeah. Ah.

Come here.

What are you doing? And why
are you always taking off your shirt?

This shirt is made out
of a material I designed

with clotting agents
to help heal wounds.

(SHUSHING)

You got a lot of wounds.

(ELECTRONIC CHIRPS)

ROWAN: As long as Neck Breaker
and the other hostages don't check in,

my cover with The Road Back
is preserved.

I picked up some internal chatter, and

Susannah Robb is planning
something deadly and big.

Then we need to find out what it is

and stop her.
