CARTER: Previously on
Eureka...

We think we may
have uncovered

possible espionage
in Eureka.

GRACE: Well, um...

This doesn't look good,
does it?

There was someone
on that disk that
you tried to destroy.

And I can restore it.

Don't do that.

Who are you protecting?

You.

You introduced me
to Beverly Barlowe.

HOLLY: You're all
just staring.

Uh... We're just not
used to seeing you alive.

I'm not used to
being alive.

Is that supposed
to happen?

What the hell is that?

I am telling you,
Sheriff.

He has been acting
very suspiciously.

Well, you guys have been
neighbors a long time.

20 years.
Yeah.

But there's always
been something

that I didn't quite
trust about the guy.

Okay, well thanks
for telling me about it.

I'll talk to
Dr. Hadler.

Oh! Here you go.
Thank you.

Talk about what?

He's out in his backyard
in the middle of the night.

Like, for hours.
With all this
weird equipment.

Of course he is.

Oh. So you're
defending him?

Well, yes.

It isn't suspicious behavior
if you're an astronomer.

Just... You know what?

I'm gonna check on it.
I promise.

Thank you so much,
Sheriff.

Good day, Dr. Blake.

I'll be keeping
my eye on you.

(CHUCKLING)
What is that?
Okay.

It's been like this
all week.

Everyone thinks
everyone else is hiding
some huge secret.

Well, I understand
how they feel after Grace.

Yeah.

Yeah. At least there haven't
been any formal espionage
charges laid.

Unfortunately, that's not
gonna help Henry any.

No. No, I do wish
we could make it
a little easier on him.

Oh, I love you.

You know that,
don't you?

Yeah.

See ya.

Initial, and initial,
signature,

thumbprint,
date of birth.

Oh, which time?

Oh, you know, let's leave
that one blank for now.

Initial, signature,

initial.

(SIGHING) How much paperwork
does it take to bring
someone back to life?

Well, we need to
inform all relevant
government agencies

that a death certificate
was filed erroneously.

Which is a massive lie...

Which is technically true.

So officially,
Dr. Holly Marten
never d*ed.

Ah, hand cramp.

Oh, yay, I have hands.
(CHUCKLES)

I'm done, what next?

No next. Congratulations,
you're alive!

Oh, seriously?

But really,
what next, next?

Well, you live
your life, Holl.

Not many people
get a second chance.

You're right.
You're right!

I could do anything.
I mean, um,

what kind of astrophysics
should I focus on?

Or... Or I could teach.

MIT, Caltech...

(GASPS) Kindergarten.

I loved kindergarten.

I'm never gonna be able to
decide what I wanna do.

FARGO: That decision is
completely up to you.

I am the no-pressure
boyfriend.

Well, you can use
my lab if you want.

You know,
for your research,
thinking, whatever.

You know,
when I was seven

I got a Barbie Jumbo Jet.
With the first-class
accessory pack.

I thought that was
the absolute best gift

anyone could
ever get ever.

I was wrong.

Doug, thank you.

Thank you.

Good morning.
Oh, hey, Jo.

Guess what? I'm legal.

Good to know.

Security reports
for the director.

Hey, she was just
saying thanks.

I know.

And after what
you did for her,
you deserve it.

Good, I just wanted
to be clear.

It might be impossible
for you to believe,

but I actually trust you.

Hmm.

(CELL PHONE CHIMING)
Oh!

Lupo.

I just wanna know
how they found out.

I'm required to file
security updates
every 72 hours.

You couldn't fudge it?

Look, I buried
Grace's arrest
as deeply as I could.

But I'm not gonna lie.
My signature is on it.

All right.

Stupid integrity.

Miss Lupo.

You have a G.D. Employee
in custody under suspicion

of espionage and passing
of classified information.

Is that accurate?

Yes, sir... Major.

Well, we still don't know
what happened, sir.

The Justice Department
will be taking over that
investigation immediately.

All evidence will be
placed under seal

and the prisoner
will be in our custody.

You should've called me
immediately, Jo.

Yes, sir.

We are handling it, sir.

Apologies, Sheriff,

but Dr. Monroe
is one of your people.

Your instinct is
to protect her,

and we need
to be ruthless.

If there's anyone else
involved in this breach,

we'll find them.

That was pleasant.

(WHIRRING)

There are a number
of projects

that we should be
talking about from
our last communiqué,

but I'd like
to put those aside.

Because the new project
in Section Five

is worthy of our attention.

I will send
a follow-up report.

Also, I have made
preliminary contact
with Senator Michaela Wen.

She seems aligned
with our goals,

and would be
an enormous asset
if we could recruit her.

I will continue to...

JO: All this to test
some Smart Dust?

ALLISON: Well, it's one
of G.D.'s most important
geo-engineering projects.

Well, Smart Dust,
like self-cleaning dust?

No, it's a way
to reverse climate change.

Hmm.
How does dust do that?

Smart Dust.
Okay.

Well, global warming
is caused

when solar radiation
is trapped
in the atmosphere.

So, we're trying
to reflect some
of that heat

using microscopic devices
coated in barium titanate.

You know that shiny thing
that you put in
your windshield

when you're
parked in the sun?

Yes.
Yeah, like a gazillion
tiny versions of those.

Oh. Thank you.

(SIGHS)

ALLISON: So, here's
the containment unit

for our small-scale
test fog.

Wow!

The...

It's, um...

I don't see anything.

(CHUCKLES) We have
complete control.

We can change
position, altitude,
even the reflectivity.

What?

Now that's cool.

They're being contained
by a cool plasma field.

Completely safe.

Wow.

So, what happens next?

We're gonna spray them
at 200 meters.

Are you using drones?

The director has decided
to go another way.

Hmm.
Huh.

(AIRPLANE SOARING)

Whoo-hoo!

Is that...
Fargo.

Yeah, this is
gonna go well...

Gas pycnometer's
over here.

Got your C.H.N. Analyzer,

N.D. 41s,

proton gear here.

Oh. The fridge has
metallic cores,

cold cell lithium,
and fresh O.J.

Ooh, yum.

I just have to run down
to the tristimulus lab
to pick up some results.

But make yourself
at home.
Okay.

COMPUTER:
Hello, Dr. Marten.
(GASPS)

Oh!

You scared me.

Hi, computer.

What can I assist you with?

That is a very
good question.

Actually,
I do not know yet.

I would be happy to present
some research possibilities

that conform to
your areas of specialty.

Also, you have one message
in your inbox.

Oh, well, play it.

From who?

Unknown.
Message commencing.

(SHRILL BEEPING)

Message ends.

Hey.
Uh, my P.D.A. Said

there was a slight
irradiance surge in here.

What happened?

You okay?

Sure, Zane.

I didn't see anything.

Hmm. That's weird.

FARGO ON RADIO:
Dust Bunny to base,
Dust Bunny to base.

I'm ready to
commence my run. Over.

Altitude and speed
are good, Fargo.

Come right to one,
four, seven and it's a go.

FARGO: Roger that, base.

I'm in the pipe.

So, what do you figure?

He gonna blow something up
or we get covered in goo?

Why are you
so pessimistic?

Really?

Right.

I think I'm gonna
go with goo.

I'll go with expl*si*n.

In three, two, one...

Release!

(CRACKLING)

It's away!

Wait for it.

ALLISON: Containment field
is holding all particles
over test area.

Let's check reflectivity.

(BEEPING)

ALLISON: We're green
across the board.

(CHUCKLES)

Well, how do you like that?
Everything went perfect.

FARGO: It worked!

I cleared my whole morning
for damage control.

Me too.

Coffee?
Sure.

See you later!

Whoo-hoo!

Hello, Dr. Marten.

What can I do for ya?
Oh, Andy, awesome.

Thanks for coming down.

I am in need of a handsome
and brawny test subject.

Well, you are a charmer.

Just right here
is good. Perfecto.

And may I say
it's wonderful
to have you back.

Thank you.
It is good to be back.

I have lots
and lots to do.

ANDY: Wow.

That appears to be
some type of neural
harmonic with a, uh...

(SHRILL BEEPING)

You are so smart.

CARTER: Well, of course
I believe in punctuality,

but I think at the end
of the day there's...

Henry.

Good to see you
up and about.

Uh, where's Major Shaw?

Uh...
Uh, well he's, uh...

He's putting together
some files.

Yeah, which isn't
necessarily a bad thing.

For Grace.
Yeah, yeah.

No, he's, uh...
He plays it hard,

but he's a stand-up guy.

And he just wants to
make sure that there
aren't any more breaches.

Um...

I'm here
to surrender myself

to local law enforcement
and G.D. Security.

What are you
talking about?

I'm the second spy.

I stole
classified information

and I persuaded Grace
to do the same.

I recruited Senator Wen

and all the damage
that she caused,

the kidnapping,
Holly's death,
everything.

(SCOFFS)

All on me.

You're...
You're serious?

Henry.

Why?

You'll have to ask
the other Henry
from the other timeline

to get the answer
to that question.

This all happened
before we altered things.

Before we took our
little trip to 1947.

Right. Okay.
So, it wasn't you.

Jack.
But it was another you.

Not you, you. Right?
Back me up on this.

Jack, you can argue
origin philosophy
all you want.

But it does not
change the fact.

But in reality,
you didn't do anything.

He's right.

Grace is sitting in a cell
because Henry
showed her the way.

If you're gonna punish her,
then you have to punish me.

And do not try
to absolve me

by using some technicality
of quantum physics!

(SIGHS)

Hmm.

This is hard. I know.
I'll find Major Shaw.

Well, no.
Wait, wait, wait.
Henry, wait, wait.

You're doing this to be
fair to Grace, right?

In part.

Then shouldn't you
talk to her first?

Well, I could get you
a couple minutes.

It doesn't change anything.
Thank you.

If you're doing this
to be fair to Grace,

please, don't do anything
until you speak to her.

That's fair.

Doug!
Ooh! Hi.

Oh, man! You missed it,
it was awesome.

See, I came in low
under the rising sun...

Yippee. So glad.

I need your John Hancock.
Well, Doug Hancock.

Uh, sure.
What am I Handcocking?

Some supplies.

Human tissue cultures,
bioreactors,

water-soluble carbodiimide.

You know,
normal girl stuff.

L-O-L. (GIGGLES)
Yeah.

You're... You're working
in the bio-printing lab.

Yes! I have decided
what I wanna do
with my life.

So, can you sign,
sweetie?

Yeah, but this
isn't your field.

I mean,
you're an astrophysicist.

You've never done
biochemistry.

The bio-printer saved me.

I really wanna try
to advance the technology
for other people.

Hmm, well, yeah, I guess...
I guess that makes sense.

But you said you were
gonna take some time
before you decided.

And I decided.

Come on, be happy.

You're on my side, right?

Thanks. Bye.

(CELL PHONE CHIMING)

(CELL PHONE BEEPS)

JO: Yes.
SHAW: Jo, this is Shaw.

(STATIC ON CELL PHONE)

Sorry. What?

(DISTORTED) Your request
has been granted for...

Yes, thank you.

What did he say?

The phone kept dropping out,
but Shaw gave the okay.

I got Henry and Grace
a couple minutes.

Great, she'll talk
some sense into him.

I can't imagine a world
where Henry would do
something like this.

The Henry we know
isn't responsible, though.

Yeah, well the law
would say something
different.

Well, the law doesn't
say anything about
Einstein Bridges

or time travel
or wormholes.

Hmm.

We can't let Henry
be on the hook for this.

It's not right.

Choose a lane, buddy.

(HONKING)

Carter?
I'm on this!

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(GASPS) Whoa!

No, no, no,
no, no, no!

(GASPS)

Smart Dust?

You're mistaken,
Sheriff.
Oh, come on...

Strict safety protocols
confine the Smart Dust
to the test area.

Well, somehow it got
un-confined.

Because it was
a Coney Island
funhouse out there.

If the particles
are untethered,

the Control Unit will
have to re-assimilate
the cloud immediately.

Well, fire this bad boy up
and sweep up the dust.

FARGO: Where's
the control unit?

I hate being right.

(SIGHS) It's not fair.
It was going perfectly.

That's all right.
I mean, random
mirrors everywhere

isn't the worst thing
in the world. We'll deal.

No. Loose Smart Dust
could potentially
disrupt every band

on the electromagnetic
spectrum.

Phones, computers.
We'll deal.

The neural impulses
in our brains.

Abstract thought, logic,
the higher functions
will go first.

And then it'll hit
the other stuff.

What other stuff?

You know. Speech.

Movement.

(CLEARS THROAT)
Bladder control.

That other stuff.

HENRY: I have to
take responsibility.

You have nothing
to confess to.

Grace, I stole
classified information.

A different man
committed that crime
and you know it.

I know that,
but I can't let you take
full responsibility either.

Well, I can't
let you take any.

Henry,
when you came back,

I was already having
my doubts about
Beverly and her group.

And then suddenly
I had a new Henry.

I could be a new me.

It was a chance
to make a clean break,

to bury my secrets
for good.

I changed because of you.

Henry...
(SIGHS) I'm sorry.

I can't give you
any more time.

You made me
a better person.

So if you're looking
to take responsibility
for something,

take responsibility
for that.

(SIGHS)

I won't ever say
anything about Henry.

Not to the D.O.D.,
not to anyone.

I know.

And I want you to know
that I am trying to do
everything I can to help you.

Just help Henry.

If Shaw digs
deeply enough,

he will probably
find something
that incriminates him.

Please, Jo.
Don't worry about me.
Just take care of Henry.

(SIGHS)

Field coherence
is down to 60%.

E.M. Disruption is
getting quite a bit worse.

Yeah. My phone was
bad enough already.

But don't worry about it.
Fargo is working on building
a replacement control unit.

Hmm. Took four departments
three years to develop

the Smart Dust
control mechanism.

But I'm sure the Director
will cr*ck it in no time.

Yeah.
Yeah.

Yeah, and in the meantime,
you and I are gonna see
if we can track it down.

So, please tell me it emits
some sort of super-energy

lightning wave
that we can track.

Sorry, boss, no.

Right. Then, motive.
What does it do?
Who would wanna steal it?

Hmm, I think you're on
the wrong track there, boss.

There are 72
geo-engineering projects
competing with this one.

And a solution
to climate change

would mean trillions
of dollars in grants.

I smell sabotage.

I don't know.

I mean, I know
the people at G.D.
Can be petty

and careless
and negligent, true.

And even homicidal.

And I've...
What was I saying?

That no one at G.D.
Would have maliciously
stolen the device.

It's possible.
How many competing
projects were there?

Seventy-two, involving
208 scientists.

Two hundred and eight?

Yeah, and I've already
organized the most efficient
route to visit them all.

(SIGHS)

(SIGHS)
All right. Let's start
ringing some doorbells.

FARGO:
So, what do you have?

Well, the Smart Dust
is still localized

near the original
dispersal area.

We're looking
at about 12 hours

before we start
seeing neural effects.

If we're lucky.

That is why
you came by, right?

Ooh. Yeah, yeah.
You know me,

I love a dispersal
simulation.

Ooh, but there is
one other thing, though.

I was wondering
if you have the time,

maybe you could
check on Holly?

I ran nutrient
blood work yesterday.
How's she feeling?

Well, she's fine.
Well, I mean,
she says she's fine.

Fargo, she's good.

Oh, I know she's great.

I mean,
her body is great.

Like, really great.
Like, vavoom.

She's been obsessed
over the bio-printer lately.

And she wants to
devote her entire life
to studying it.

Well, it makes sense

that she would
be attached to
that particular technology.

Yeah, well,
I'm just concerned

that maybe she's throwing
herself into something
too quickly.

Okay, I guess
I could stop by,
and say hi.

Zane, I need you.

Right here in the hall?

Oh, you naughty
little minx, you...

Okay, not laughing.
Let's start that again.

What do you
need me for, darling?

The D.O.D. Is
confiscating the evidence
in the Grace investigation.

And I need a list
of everything
they're taking.

Talk to Shaw.
He's your buddy.

It's a D.O.D. Case now.
And Shaw is by the book.

And he's not gonna
tell me anything.

Well, he ain't
gonna tell me.

I sort of need you
to acquire the list...

Discretely.

The head of G.D. Security
wants me to hack
classified D.O.D. Files?

(CHUCKLES)
I didn't say that.

Please. Do this for me.

Can you tell me
why you need it?

Hmm... The less
you know, the better.

You're protecting me.

Same here.
Hey, Zane... Hey.

No. You're
a straight arrow.

That's what I love
and kinda hate about you.

I'm not gonna be
the one that gets
your hands dirty here.

I'm sorry, Jo.

ALLISON: Holly?

Hello?

What are you doing?

COMPUTER: Beta sample.

Cellular lattice
47% percent printed.

47% of what?

Hi.

What are you
doing here?

Just checking in.

Oh, Doug sent you.
It's sweet, but he
worries too much.

(TYPING)

Well, he is the boss.

But just so
I have something
to report back...

Everything's good?

Yeah. Keeping busy.

I can see that.

Oh! That's not for me.

I mean,
it's for me to study.

Not to live in.

I'm testing
new molecular scaffolding
for bio-printed organs.

In there?

Seemed smarter than
running tests on myself.

I wouldn't want
to melt my own head.

Again.

Holly, don't you think
it's a little early
in your research

for you to be printing
whole human bodies?

I mean,
yesterday you were
a rocket scientist.

And the day before that,
I was dead.

Why run simulations when
I can test the real thing?

Holly, the somatic cell
emulsions you're using

are incredibly hard
to produce,
even here at G.D.

I guess you're right.

Except the boss,

who also happens
to be my boyfriend,

said I could use
whatever supplies I needed.

So...

I'm actually
kind of busy here.

So, bye.

Oh. Well, um...

I guess
I'll leave you to it.

CARTER: Fargo?

Any luck finding
who stole the control unit?

Uh, no.
Nothing.

We've interviewed
108 people so far.

Hundred and six, boss.
Hundred and six people.

And the fact that
we haven't made
any headway whatsoever

does not get me
down at all.

You didn't get
my update, Doctor?

What? No.

The communications grid
is bonkers.
(BEEPING)

The servers
should be next.

Please tell me you have
this thing fixed.

The Smart Dust
should be re-coalescing
at optimal altitude now.

Fargo for the win!

ANDY: Hmm.

Doesn't seem to be
connecting with
the Smart Dust there.

Oh, there's some sort
of crosstalk interference.

Only one other thing
uses the same
Gaussian wave packets.

Oh. Let me guess.

The missing
control unit.

I had this happen!
I had this happen once
with a garage door opener.

Well, wherever it is,
it's still on.

But maybe I can
install a booster to
override the interference.

Well, the Methane
Abatement team
is waiting on us.

They're over
in Dr. Glenn's
cow pasture.

Oh! More suspects?

There's got to be
an easier way
to find this thing

than wading
through cow methane.

I ran the numbers.

This approach still has
the highest likelihood
of success.

Any other method
would be dangerously close
to professional malpractice.

Boss.

Hmm.

Let's go.
Great.

What about that
garage door thing?

I mean, there was
a house on the street

and they had theirs
tuned to the same
channel as ours.

And I had to drive up
and down the street
with the clicker

until their door opened.

Can we make
one of those?

A clicker?
Sort of.

Like something
that can track down

where interference
is coming from.

(CHUCKLES) Well,
it's a nifty idea, boss.

But kind of impossible.

We'd have to rewrite
the second law
of thermodynamics.

And if you wanted to use
d'Alembert's formula

for solving
a one-dimensional
wave equation...

(GRUNTS) Yeah.

ALLISON: So, if you
can set up somewhere
near a vent,

you can get started.
Okay, Doc. Yep.

Hey.

You are looking
very tired, my friend.

(CHUCKLES) Sure.

How you feeling?

I just keep thinking
about Grace, and...

I don't know
what to do.

And I can't imagine
my life without her.

Because you care
about her. We all do.

(SIGHS)

We are trying to track
the dispersal patterns
for the Smart Dust.

Ah. Particle sensors?

We've been having
power flickers, uh...

Vincent's fusion generator
is probably being affected.
Henry.

No, I'm happy to think
about almost anything
for a little while.

As a matter of fact,
I was on my way to G.D.

To see Holly.
She had some questions
about the bio-printer.

She asked
would I come by.

(SIGHS)

If someone wanted to study
molecular scaffolding,
how would they go about it?

There's tons of research
on the G.D. Database.

I'd build a computer model
from those specs.

Would you bio-print a body?

(LAUGHS) No!

That'd be like
launching a spaceship
to test the zero-grav shower.

Yeah, well that's
what I thought.

We're talking
about Holly?

Yes.

She was printing
a body blank in
the neural networking lab.

Why?
I don't know.

But when I pressed her
about it, she basically
kicked me out of the lab.

(CHUCKLES) Okay, well,
I'll see what
I can find out.

Major. I thought
you weren't transferring
the evidence till next week.

No choice.

You've got an out-of-control
dust cloud floating around.

It could damage
the magnetic media
even before it damages us.

Of course.

Can't be too careful.

But you wanna be sure
you don't leave anything
important behind.

Have you ever known me
to be less than thorough?

Make sure
those are sealed.

Yes, sir.

I'd be happy
to review the...
the evidence list.

A second pair of eyes
never hurts.

I can also be
very thorough.

I learned from the best.

You do know this is
my investigation.

Of course.
I'm cooperating.

Well, thanks
for the offer,

but all the information
connected to this case
is classified.

Sir.

How many patients
should we expect?
Could be hundreds.

Make sure we have
extra neural exam kits
and portable MRIs.

I need to talk to you.
It's important.

Okay.

While I was doing
some research for Jo,

I found something.

ALLISON: What is that?

Did the dust cause some
kind of video malfunction?

That's what
I thought at first.

But here it is again,

slowed by a factor of 40.

What the hell is that?

This message was buried
in a DOC-TRAM file
on my lab computer.

It was addressed to Holly.

Holly?
Mmm-hmm.

While she was in my lab,
there was this slight
irradiance surge.

She said she didn't
see anything,

but this would've h*jacked
every single video system.

She had to see it.

Why would she lie?

This is
an excellent question.

One I didn't want to
ask her straight out.

If her cortex is having
memory problems,

confronting contradictions
in her perception
could cause pathway damage.

Yup.

Her new brain is powered
by a photonic processor.

Rhythmic flashes
like this could act
as a neural trigger.

Well, that's why
I brought it to you.

The strobe patterns
look like they can cause
epileptic seizures.

Well, this can't be
a computer malfunction.

The patterns
are too complex.

This is not an accident.

Well, I'll keep
digging then.

Maybe I can find
a source code.

(CARTER SIGHS)

Hey, Fargo.
How's it going?

Ooh! Ooh, you smell,
a lot.

Yes.
Methane Abatement lab.

Smelly and a complete
waste of time,

thank you very much.
So, update!

The entire Eureka Smart Car
system went down
10 minutes ago.

As did our digital links
to the outside world.

Well, the good news is,
the cloud is stabilizing.

It's only affecting
equipment so far.

Oh! So a few more hours
of bladder control.
I'll take it.

And the bad news?

I can't get
my booster to work.

Smart Dust,
it was supposed
to be my legacy.

Now I'm just gonna
be known as
Director Screw-up.

Yes. But fantastically,
they are calling it
Farmageddon.

Farmageddon?

That is not fantastic.

This is a disaster.

Oh, come on, Fargo!

Get it together.
You're smart
and science-y.

Not like me with
my garage door opener idea.

Garage door?

Yeah, it...

The idea was...

'Cause you know how
your garage door clicker

can, like, sometimes open
someone else's garage door?

So you could
make a clicker,

that could
find the control unit.

That would totally track
the interference.
No, actually.

Andy said that
it would break, like,
100 laws of physics.

Yeah, well, Andy
needs to do another
self-diagnosis,

because this
could totally work.

I mean, yeah,
I could tweak
a diagnostic array

to capture
the interference signatures

and then, ooh, yes,
and then I could just run
a spectral density search...

Clicker.

Who says
you're not science-y?

Henry?

Allison. Um, I...
I'm sorry.

So, I went to Holly's lab.
Everything's fine.

She's fine.
Nothing to worry about.

Okay. Wait, wait.

Did you see how she was
using the bio-printer?

Yes.

Does it concern you?

Chalk it up to
an overeager scientist
excited to be back at work.

Besides,
she's not gonna have
very much access to it.

I had it moved offsite
for maintenance.

So nothing
to worry about.

Henry's working?

Yeah. He was just...

(SIGHS)
That was really odd.

But I... I guess he just
needs a distraction.

Why? What's up?
A question.

Could the brainium
titanic in the dust

be affecting Andy
before it affects us?

The barium titanite?
Yes, that's what I said.

'Cause Andy's
acting weird.

Well, the dust could
disrupt the E.M. Signals
in his processor.

But it's too weak
to be affecting
the human synaptic cleft.

Okay. So it affects
communications,
computers and Andy?

Yes, but that still doesn't
explain why Henry isn't
quite like Henry.

And why Holly...
Holly?

Why do you guys
invent this stuff?

Jack. There is something
strange going on.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Yeah.
And it's not just
about the Smart Dust.

Fargo's got a tracker
for the control unit.

Let me find
the control unit.

Then I can get
the communications
up and running,

and then we can
deal with that.
Okay. Be careful

I don't want your brain
to get all scrambled, too.

Okay.
Okay.

Okay, this is the thing.

See, I like
how you see me,

I do. And I like that
you respect me,
and not just

"I'll respect you
in the morning"
type of respect,

but real actual respect.

Babe, I'm kind of
in the middle
of something.

But I am running
out of time.

Shaw is taking
the evidence to D.C.

Before the Smart Dust
can corrupt the files.

Yeah, I heard.
Don't worry about it.

No, today.

Right now.

Jo, trust me.

Leave it alone.
(CHUCKLES)

I need your help.

And I need you to trust
that I'm doing
the right thing.

Please.

You know what?
I'm betting the evidence
has already been corrupted.

At least anything
to do with Henry.

Who said anything
about Henry?

You think you're
dating a moron.

You said you
wouldn't do it.

No. I said I wouldn't
get your hands dirty.
And I didn't.

Now stop asking questions
and let me get back to work.

Thank you.
Mmm-hmm.

Uh, Zane.

What?

I've seen that before.

When?

When Holly was trapped
in the G.D. Computer.

(CELL PHONE CHIMING)

Lupo.
(CARTER SPEAKING ON PHONE)

Carter?

Where are you?

Are you okay?

(DISTORTED SPEECH)

I'm on my way.

JO: Carter!

Hello?

(INSECT BUZZING)

(SIGHS)

Nope.

It's just me.

Carter?

Where are you?

Jo!

This way!

JO: Okay,
this is so weird!

You mean
all the mirrors?

Yeah. It's like Zane's
dream come true.

(CHUCKLES)

So weird.

(GRUNTS)

Carter! Ah!

(GROANING)

Sorry, Jo.
Can't help you right now.

Got some things
to take care of.

(CHUCKLES)

FARGO: Major, I don't know
what else you want from me.

You wanted the evidence.
We gave it to you.

And I just got a call
from Justice.

That evidence didn't
exactly get there
in one piece.

Well, you have
to use a reputable
moving company.

When I shipped
my pinball machines out,
I got on Yelp,

I got recommendations...

Sixty-three digital files
were corrupted.

My people say that data
is unrecoverable.

We did warn you
that the Smart Dust

might affect
certain ferroelectric
memory surfaces.

Didn't we?

Yes.

These files were targeted
and erased intentionally.

I'm going to find out
who did this,

and I think I know
where to start.

I expect full cooperation
from your security staff.

Absolutely.

CARTER: Jo thinks
she saw something
like this once before,

which was equally
creeptastic.

What does that
look like to you?

I'm gonna go with hands.

No. I mean, does it look
like someone is trying
to get out?

Who would
send this to Holly?

That's what I wanna
show you.

Check this out.

Those are all
the root level instructions?

Every line.

And see?
There's no point of origin.

Nobody sent it.

Well, what is this?

I don't know.
Could be line noise
or interference.

No, no.

It looks like
E.E.G. Tracings.

Those are Z-waves.

Yeah, but then
Holly's pattern wasn't
the only one stuck in there.

Or maybe something else
is trying to get out.

Something else
from the matrix?
That ain't good.

Yeah, but if something
else got out we would
know about it, right?

(SIGHS)

The Smart Dust.

What does this
have to do
with Smart Dust?

What if the Smart Dust
isn't out of control?

What if someone else
is controlling it?

Using it to knock out
communication?

All right, but why?
So that we can't talk
to each other.

So that we can't put
the pieces together.

Come on, Carter.

(STATIC)
Ooh!

SHAW: Zane Donovan?

Yeah, may I help you?

You're under arrest
for obstruction of justice
and destroying evidence.

Excuse me?

Jo, take him
into custody.

Jo, what are you doing?

Take him to holding.

Jo. What is going on?

Let me handle it,
Allison.

(SIGHS)

(DEVICE BLEEPING)

(BLEEPING)

(DOOR CLOSES)

(BLEEPING INTENSIFIES)

Hey, Fargo? I think
I found your missing toy.
(STATIC)

Fargo?

Whoa!

Wake up. Jo?
Jo, we...

HOLLY: Hi.

We gotta...

(CRACKLING)

(GROANING)

(SHUDDERING)

Now we're even.
