01x09 - The Getaway

[bunniefuu]

[GRUNTS]

[GROANS]

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTING]

She's still in that uniform,
still wearing that badge.

It's not hard for her to get in a door.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING]

Everyone, please go back inside.

Thank you.

Yeah, it's all right. Everything's okay.

- [SIMS] Paul.
- [PAUL SIGHS]

How'd she get away?

You think I let her go?

- Why would he let her go?
- [SIMS] I don't know.

- I sent him home for the time being.
- Where the f*ck is she?

Amundsen and his team
searched the level,

every apartment, every
closet, under every bed...

What, has she mastered
the art of invisibility?

'Cause that's a skill
I'd really love to learn.

It's possible she circled around

or climbed up or down
the far side of the shaft.

- Have you searched that level?
- We did.

I also brought in all off-duty
watchers. We have eyes on every screen.

Have them track her movement yesterday.

Maybe that'll tell us something.

I think we have to assume she
somehow got off that level,

- maybe made it back to the stairs.
- [KEY BUZZING]

I'm gonna have Amundsen talk to
anyone who might give her shelter.

[BUZZING CONTINUES]

[BUZZING STOPS]

Rob, I hope you understand
what we're facing here.

Go.

Talk to her friends, family.
See if anyone's hiding her.

I'm gonna need an escort.

- [SIGHS]
- [KATHLEEN] Paul.

[SOFTLY] Honey.

I lost my grip.

- It's not your fault.
- No.

It is my fault.

You ask me if I'm okay, I feel fine.

Physically, I feel
normal, but look at this.

Even now, my hands won't stop.

All these medicines and herbs...

[CHUCKLES] At this point,
I'd rather people just know

I have the Syndrome than
think I'm incompetent.

You're not incompetent.

You worked hard to get where you are.

But... [SIGHS] ... maybe it's time.

- For what?
- To go back to Judicial.

They liked you there.

You did well and it didn't have
the same kinds of requirements.

I'm not going back to Judicial.

Your plan is to tell
them you have the Syndrome

and hope they look past
it, ignore the Pact?

I wasn't being serious, Kat.
I was just saying how I feel.

You lied, Paul.

Yes, you earned the job that you have,

but by not telling them
about your condition.

So if going back to
Judicial is what allows you

- to move forward...
- I am more than qualified to do this job.

I am not saying that you're not!

But one sheriff was
already sent out to clean

and the other was on their way,

and neither of them had children!

So when you think of your secrets

and your pride about what
you're qualified to do,

picture your daughter
growing up without you.

Think about that.

Kat, that's... that's not fair.

It's the truth.

[HUFFS]

[SIGHS]

Um...

[PAUL SIGHS]

When I was , there was another kid,

Justin Carlson, who had the Syndrome.

Most kids didn't know, but I knew.

I saw him trying to hide
it the same way I did.

And he knew I had it too.

One day, he approached
me and asked me about it

like he was trying to make a friend.

I hit him so hard, I
knocked one of his teeth out.

I told him if he ever told anyone,
or if he ever talked to me again,

I'd hit him harder.

That's how important it was
for me to keep that secret,

to keep people from knowing
that I had some defect,

that I was someone the Pact
said could only have a job

with no physical requirement
because I was different.

[PAUL BREATHES SHAKILY]

I am not limited by what others think

- I'm capable of...
- Paul, honey.

... and I'm allowed to make mistakes.

[SOFTLY] I'm allowed to make mistakes.

What are you doing?

I'm gonna catch the person I let go.

I'm gonna make this right.

- Hank.
- Walker.

This about Jules?

I tried to tell 'em Mechanical
runs like a fine-oiled machine

'cause of the hardworking citizens

who put the safety of
the Silo above all else.

Yet, here they are.

Yeah.

Well, come on in.

I ain't got sh*t to hide.

She didn't wake up for
her : a.m. feeding.

[SNIFFLES] I'm so tired.

I didn't wake up until : and I...

Denise, it's okay.

- I'm a terrible mother. [CRIES]
- No. No, you're not.

You're just exhausted.

- [DENISE SNIFFLES]
- Look. Claudia's just fine.

[DOOR OPENS]

- [PETE] What are you doing?
- Peter Nichols.

- We're in the middle of a...
- Do you know where your daughter is?

- [SOFTLY] You'll wake the baby.
- Do you know where your daughter is?

No. Now please leave.

I think you better do as he says.

If you wake the baby, this
poor woman might just k*ll you.

I remember when getting our boy to sleep

was the highest achievement of the day.

What do you want with my daughter?

Dr. Nichols,

I imagine Juliette is the most
important person in the world to you,

but for the sake of
everyone in the Silo,

I need you to tell
me where she might be.

She is the most important person to me,

but I don't know how she
thinks or where she might go.

Until this week, I hadn't
seen her in years.

- What happened?
- She said she wanted to go out.

- Now the whole Silo is looking for her.
- [SIGHS]

Help me find her before
some overeager raider does.

[BREATHES SHAKILY] If
that's meant to be a warning,

I don't need it. I know all about them.

I guess you do.

There's a spot halfway
around the level one balcony

where the railing is worn smooth

by all the people who have
gripped it tight before going over.

I never imagined my wife
would be one of them.

But thanks to your raiders,
Jules is all I have left.

Let me ask you, Mr. Sims,
if you were in my position,

would you help the
people hunting your child?

I would,

'cause no one person is more important

than the , or
the thousands to come.

I have no idea where she is.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING]

[ANTHONY] Why did they close school?

It's just a special day, honey.
I don't have to go to work either.

It'll just be you and me.
Grilled cheese for lunch.

Is Daddy coming home?

Daddy is gonna be very busy today.

I made something for him.

[CAMILLE] That's lovely.

Just gonna make one for
your dad and not your mom?

- I made one for you too, Mom.
- [CHUCKLES]

- [RAIDER] Mrs. Sims?
- [CAMILLE] Yes?

Your husband sent us to escort
you both home from school.

Well, you're a little late.

- Our door is right here.
- Apologies, ma'am.

Could we at least make
sure you get in okay?

All right. [CHUCKLES]

Okay. We're in.

- You mind if we check inside?
- You're not setting foot inside my home.

But you can tell my
husband you did your job.

- [RAIDER ] Ma'am.
- I was a raider for years

before I moved over to IT.
I can take care of myself.

Yes, ma'am, but we'd
really feel better...

You two drew a lot of attention
running up, yelling my name.

You think my husband would like that?

Okay. Okay. Come on.

There we go.

Everything okay, Mommy?

Yeah.

Yeah, baby. Everything's fine.

You just stay in here
and get your homework out.

I'll make you a snack, okay?

- Yeah.
- Excuse me?

- Yes, Mommy.
- [CHUCKLES] Okay.

- [CAMILLE GASPS]
- [BREATHING HEAVILY]

I'm not gonna hurt you
but I will if I have to.

[CAMILLE] I love it, baby.

Why don't you hang
on to it for me, okay?

Yes, ma'am.

I'm gonna close the door,
but everything's all right.

I just need to talk to
this person from work.

Yes, ma'am.

[DOOR CLOSES]

- You know how to use that?
- No, not really.

I figured you're so close,
it doesn't really matter.

There's only one sh*t in there.

How many will I need?

Look, I'm not here to hurt you.

- You said that.
- I'm saying it again.

- Are these mine?
- Yeah. Your husband took mine.

Cuff yourself to the
rail in the bathroom.

No.

Look. Me f*ring this g*n,
whether I hit you or not,

it's gonna be enough to
give your son nightmares

for the rest of his life.

You want that?

I'm not going any place
where I can't see both you

and the door to my son's bedroom.

[SIGHS]

[BREATHES HEAVILY]

Kitchen. Now.

Really?

I've done more with less.

By the sound of it, so have you.

[COMPUTER CHIMES]

- [COMPUTER BEEPS]
- [SIGHS]

What are you doing?

[ITEMS CLATTERING]

Deputy, you can't come in here.

The judge said only Judicial
investigators are allowed inside.

As acting sheriff, I have a
responsibility to conduct an investigation

into anyone who requests to go outside.

And I have orders to arrest
anyone who tries to get past me.

Sir, I don't know if you remember me,

but I took your class
on the Pact last year.

- Jean?
- Robinson.

Look, if it was up to me, I'd
let you inside, but I can't.

As you know, I don't have a
choice. I have to do what they say.

- Can you tell me if she left a note?
- No note. This place was a mess.

I was just thinking if I found
out why she said she had to go out,

maybe I could figure out where she is.

I don't know.

But you should go, sir.

[SCOFFS]

[COMPUTER WHIRRING]

- [SIGHS]
- So, who was it that gave you nightmares?

That's not something you say
if you don't have them yourself.

[INHALES SHARPLY]

You said you were a raider.

You know, when I was a little girl
about the same age your son is now,

someone like you broke down our door.

They destroyed our apartment, my family.

That's Judicial. That's
who you used to work for

and who your husband works for.

My husband works for
the good of the Silo.

- Oh, you believe in the good of the Silo?
- I do.

But not enough to let two raiders

into your apartment
where your son sleeps.

Even though your husband sent them.

My husband's not in control of
everything that happens in the Silo.

And he's certainly not responsible

for something that happened
to you when you were a child.

You have no idea what your
husband is responsible for.

And what do you think will
happen when he finds out

where you are right now?

[COMPUTER CHIRPING]

[INHALES DEEPLY]

[EXHALES DEEPLY]

[SIGHS]

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[KNOCKING]

Um... [CLEARS THROAT] Come in.

I spoke to her father.

Our Down Deep team checked
out her friends in Mechanical.

None of them have her.

Did you send teams anywhere else?

Just those places for now.

The watchers tracked where
Nichols went yesterday.

Most of it normal until she
went to the Dispatch on ten.

Hired a porter to deliver a message.

The sheriff's department
has its own porters.

Yeah, I know. I sent an
agent up to check it out.

The message was delivered
to someone in the cafeteria.

Cafeteria worker?

No, someone who was just sitting there.

Lukas Kyle, works in IT.

We don't know what the message said,

but we do know what Mr.
Kyle did after he got it.

He went to Nichols's apartment.

Huh.

[PEOPLE MURMURING]

[THUMPING]

[SIGHS]

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[COMPUTER BEEPS]

[COMPUTER BUZZING]

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

[SIGHS]

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[GRUNTS, SIGHS]

[BERNARD INHALES DEEPLY]

Would you consider yourself
a curious person, Mr. Kyle?

No, uh...

I mean, not more than
anyone else is, sir.

But I understand that you like
to go up to the cafeteria at night

and chart the lights in
the sky. Is that true?

It's, uh, just a hobby to
pass the time. [CHUCKLES]

I would say that I am more
analytical than curious.

Analytical? [CHUCKLES]

It's why I like working here in IT.

You know, here, uh, I get to use...

Do you have any idea
what... [SIGHS] ... they are?

The lights.

No, sir.

Any guesses?

- [CHUCKLES]
- What about Sheriff Nichols?

Does she have any idea
what the lights are?

[CHUCKLES]

Lukas, yesterday when the sheriff
sent you a message by porter,

you went directly to her apartment
where you had a conversation.

It was hard to hear over the
water that she left running.

Nichols then broke her mirror,

destroying the air
quality monitor behind it.

A-A criminal offense.

And then on top of that,
she showed you a hard drive.

A restricted one.

And what did you do?

I... Well, nothing.
I-I didn't do anything.

Exactly.

The sheriff showed you a
restricted red-level relic,

and you told no one.

A Judicial security team
even came to her apartment,

giving you the
opportunity to alert them,

and you slinked away.

I didn't know that it was
a red-level relic, sir. I...

Tell me, you're an analytical person.

So, what do you think the consequences
should be for such an inaction?

Sir, the consequences?

Come on. You're a smart man.
Otherwise, you wouldn't be in IT.

I mean, before today, while I
wouldn't have known your face,

I am certainly familiar with
your performance numbers,

and they are quite high.

So, consequences.

How about the scavenge room?

The mines?

Considering the scope of your betrayal,

maybe... [SIGHS] ... a cleaning
would be more appropriate.

Mr. Holland, please, I...

With , of your fellow
citizens depending on your judgment,

you turned a blind eye.

Why?

Because of a... crush?

I'm not sure I see
another way out for you...

unless you help us find her.

I have no idea where she is.

What did she want from you?

Just help with... with the hard
drive, but I didn't help her.

Describe it to me. The hard
drive, describe it to me.

- It's... It's old...
- What else?

It's b*at-up. It...

Was there a serial number?

- I didn't look at it that closely.
- Bullshit!

You're lying to me. What else?

There was a... a number on it.

Um, not a serial number, just a n...

Yes. What number?

A number... [SIGHS] ... .

Put him somewhere. Don't
let him talk to anyone.

- What is it?
- Come with me.

[BERNARD] I need a system-wide
scan for a hard drive.

Serial number .

Sir, serial numbers have nine digits.

This has two, a one
followed by an eight,

otherwise known as . Find it!

[TYPING]

[BREATHING DEEPLY]

You okay?

I've been very negligent
in appointing a shadow.

[INHALES SHARPLY] And I know you
think it should be you, Robert,

but earlier today, you
had Amundsen send agents

to accompany your wife when she
walked your son home from school.

We are facing extinction,

and you chose to protect
your family before the Silo.

I suppose that is
completely understandable.

But now I wonder whether
making you my shadow

would be fair to you, your
wife, your son, or the Silo.

Got it.

That drive is connected to a
computer in an apartment on level .

- Seventeen?
- Yes, sir. Apartment .

Gotta be f*cking kidding me.

- Clear the stairs all the way to level !
- [GRUNTS]

Get every available raider,
levels above and below.

With me. Come with me!

- Hey, Jules.
- What?

Pretty crazy, right? This is a video.

Or at least that's what they
called it in the before-times.

Uh, I'm... I'm making it on
an old camera that I found.

It was on its last legs, but I got
it working, because I'm a genius.

Hopefully, you're watching
this and I'm right next to you,

watching your reaction. But if not,

and you're watching without me, uh...

Well, first off, that means you
found all the clues I left behind.

But if you're watching
it alone, that also means

that Judicial found out
that I have the hard drive,

and things haven't
gone the way I wanted.

Please know that I never
meant to put you in any danger.

But, Jules, there is stuff on
this drive that people need to see.

The truth.

Stop.

[CAMILLE] Stop.

You should also know that I...

The second you connected that
drive, they knew where you were.

You can either run right
now, or keep watching and die.

[BREATHES HEAVILY]

- Let's go.
- Come on!

[DIEGO] sh*t. Oh, sh*t.

All the alleyway cameras
are going dark too.

[SIMS] Wait.

Hey, you all right? Are you okay?

Anthony, are you okay?

How does she keep getting away?

[CHECKPOINT AGENT] Next.

- Travel restrictions remain in effect.
- Yeah, I'm IT.

How is IT travel essential today?

Well, it isn't to me,
but it is to my boss.

Thank you.

- Hey.
- This better be important, Patrick.

I had to lie my way past a
bunch of f*cking checkpoints.

[SHUSHES] You think I'm
gonna spend ten credits

on a message if it wasn't
important? No. Get in.

Come on.

I promised my assh*le boss
I'd work weekends for m...

Patrick, why is the sheriff here?

- I'm pretty sure she's the ex-sheriff now.
- Better question, why am I here?

[JULIETTE] 'Cause
you're a part of a ring

that hacks the Silo's security network

and fences stolen goods
from the marketplace.

- You traitorous f*ck!
- Hey, I said you were the best.

- Why are you helping a cop?
- I saved his life.

She likes to think that that's why,

but really, I'm doing it for that watch.

I've got a job for you.

- You got another watch for me?
- No.

- Well, then I'm not interested.
- Uh, yeah, you are.

- Oh, sh*t. George Wilkins.
- Yeah.

[PAUL BREATHING SHAKILY]

[EXHALES HEAVILY]

There's a file I need
to finish looking at.

- Why do you need me for that?
- Needs a computer with SysOp clearance,

- and they wouldn't give one to a criminal...
- Wow.

Not easy, but I can get around it.

And they're looking for that
drive, so as soon as you plug it in,

they'll come running.

- That's a little harder but doable.
- There.

I can make 'em think it's coming
from somewhere else in the Silo.

Anywhere you want to
send a team of raiders?

Old boyfriend? Boss?

- How about that assh*le on ?
- [CHUCKLES]

One who turned you
in on the counterfeit?

- Mm-hmm.
- Done.

[GRUNTS]

I spent years trying to cr*ck this
drive before I sold it to Regina.

It was just collecting dust by
the time she offered me a trade.

Then she gave it to George.
Holston's wife did these?

Yeah.

Data recovery. No wonder
she went out to clean.

She got around the directory
problem. George couldn't cr*ck it.

[TYPING]

Wow. There's, like, thousands
and thousands of files here.

How am I supposed to
know where to start?

[JULIETTE] How about there?

Yeah, that's actually very helpful.

Hey, Jules. Pretty crazy,
right? This is a video.

What the actual f*ck?

[ALARM BLARES]

[CHATTERING]

Got it. It's on .

She was on . How the
f*ck did she get to ?

The truth. Since I'm being honest,

you should also know that
I transferred to Mechanical

so that I could find someone
to use as a guide down here.

And it didn't take
long for me to realize

that the know-it-all down here is you.

My plan was to get all the
knowledge you could provide,

and then leave you behind.

But then the most
annoying thing happened.

I fell in love with you.

[BREATHES DEEPLY, SIGHS] Anyway...

I wanted to tell you today

at Cooper's shadow party that, uh,

I found the door I've been looking for.

It's huge. Uh, maybe
feet high. Metal.

I can't get through it. Maybe you can.

Uh, I'm guessing you're wondering
what I did about the water.

Well... [INHALES SHARPLY] ... turns
out it was nothing to worry about.

Anyway, Jules, the important
thing is the door is down there.

You have to find it.

[GEORGE CHUCKLES] I, uh...

I'm recording this video
in case I don't make it,

but people need to know why
Allison Becker went out to clean.

Remember what she said
when she asked to go out?

On here, look for the file
labeled "Jane Carmody Cleaning."

You'll see why.

[SIMS] I wish I had gotten here sooner.

It's a good thing you
didn't. I let her go, Rob.

You what? Why would you do that?

- Just listen.
- To what?

You had her right here
and you let her go?

I knew you were coming
with a bunch of raiders

with their fingers on triggers.

- No, I gave them orders not to fire.
- I've been given those orders.

I know what can happen.

We have one goal, one ambition,
and we will not lose sight of that.

- What?
- Bernard, he...

he found out I had an escort
bringing you and Anthony home,

and now he's wondering if I'm
the wrong person to shadow him.

- Tell me exactly what he said, Rob.
- [STUTTERS]

I can't get into that
now. I have to get back.

[ANTHONY] Dad.

[SIGHS] Anthony, honey, I
told you to stay in your room.

Everything is okay now, Son. Promise.

Daddy's not gonna let
anything happen to you.

[CAMILLE] You want your father
to protect us, don't you?

So do I. We have to let
him go so he can do that.

Are you gonna send
that lady out to clean?

- We'll see.
- I hope you do.

I don't ever want her to ever come back.

[GEORGE] I gotta go hide this
drive and then head back up.

One more thing before I go,

I'm so happy that I got
to be the lucky bastard

in this f*cked-up place
who got to be with you.

So in case I wasn't clear enough
earlier, I love you, Juliette Nichols.

[MOUTHING] I love you.

[CLEARS THROAT]

- Hey, how's Camille? How's your boy?
- Scared, both of them.

- [SIGHS]
- I heard the drive popped up down on .

It's not there. She has
someone bouncing the address.

They're good, but I'm better. We
will find it, and we will get her.

[JANE] Oh, my... [GASPS]

- It's so... I... [SOBS]
- Guys, you... you gotta see this.

It's so beautiful. It's so beautiful.

Can anyone hear me? Can anyone hear me?

[BREATHES SHARPLY] The
display in the cafeteria...

People have to know. They have to see.

[JULIETTE] Allison was right.

The display is a lie.

[BIRDS CHIRPING]
