03x06 - Certain Agony of the b*ttlefield

[bunniefuu]

Sarah: When Beth d*ed, I took her identity.

You're her monitor, and she k*lled herself because the man that she loved turned her whole life into a lie.

Jason Kellerman?

You dumped my ass in high school.

Give me those pills back and I'll have your money back within a week and I will double Ramon's weight.

The reason we can't find the Castor samples is because Johanssen used them to make a clone.

We don't leave loose ends. No.

I brought you Helena to keep Sarah off the table.

Hey! You did this to me.

That's not what happened.

We have the original Castor DNA.

That is all you need to develop a cure.

If you don't put yourself out there, Then you're never going to find what you're looking for anyways.

Shay.

Cosima.

What's her name?

Gracie.

And you consummated this marriage.

The child is lost.

You will not be welcomed back here again.

Your first log book. Any intimate contacts, their names go in.

I need to check your eyes.

Get the keys. Get me out.

Now we are even, Sestra.

(Door hinge squeaks)

(Creaking)

(Clang)

(Girl giggling)

(Giggle)

Kira?

Mommy.

Baby.

Come on, mom.

Wait for me. Wait for me! Kira.

Monkey, wait for me!

(Retching)

(Gasps)

(City traffic)

You look tan.

Grandmother was Greek. I've got the gene.

Is that it?

Jesus.

They each have one?

Maybe there's an explanation, something in their psychology.

It's not about their psychology.

Maybe it's a memory test or something.

It's research, on civilians, unsanctioned.

Look, I'm going to take this to the director, But he's going to need more.

I'll get it.

Proof, Paul.

Find out what she's up to. Get evidence.

Till then... we can't act.

I just hope It's not as twisted as it looks.

Kira: And yesterday I saw an iceberg.

Cal says it's because of the tides.

Just don't let him feed you too much salted fish. Okay, monkey?

Because then you're gonna end up with a beard like him, darling.

(Laughs)

Nah.

Yeah. It's epigenetics, monkey.

It's a proven fact. It is.

(Siobhan laughs)

Is mommy mad at me?

No.

Oh, no, love, no.

She'll be so sorry she didn't get to talk to you.

She misses you enormously.

And when she finds out how much fun you're having, she's going to be so happy.

Time to sign off now, love, okay? Thanks to your dad for the call.

Remember we love you.

I love you, too.

Bye.

Bye!

Bye!

We'll find her, Fee.

Just stop, please.

My people are working on it.

Every time you say "my people," I picture nine squatters around a tire.

Well, they've tracked down Castor's headquarters.

To where?

Mexico. Maybe.

Information is spotty.

S, it's been five days.

I can't keep sitting on my hands here.

I know.

Thank you, honey, but you don't need to serve us.

Helps to have something to do.

Then there's her. Cast out by her family.

She's suffering some kind of weird, mysterious disease.

Well, Cosima's working on that.

Yeah.

If raising Sarah has taught me anything, It's how to survive worry.

You keep on living.

(Sighs)

(Glass clinking)

(Mobile vibrating)

Hey.

Fourth time this morning. You slept through the others.

Oh, God, I'm sorry.

My coworker's very excitable.

Yeah, this very mysterious lab... you work at studying...

What is it? Wait, I forgot, hold on... black holes?

Black holes? Right?

Black holes, exactly.

I made this for you. Got liquorice root in it.

It'll help with that cough you've got, but...

You, my dear, have to earn it.

By telling me this: who's Sarah?

What?

What do you know about Sarah?

Wow. Bad topic?

How do you know that name?

I know that name because you were dreaming and you said it.

So I figured she was an ex or something.

Sorry.

Wow.

Sarah's a friend. She's...

She's like my sister.

A wilder version of me.

It doesn't get much wilder than you.

Dad?

Ah! Ah!

Whoa! whoa, whoa, whoa!

Mom?

Don't look! We're changing!

What... what do you want?

Oscar put earwax on my GI.

Okay, well, uh, just change into a fresh one, okay?

I'll be down in a minute. Go, go, don't look.

Do you have the keys to the van?

I told the Sanghas I'd drive to dojo.

Well, no, there's lawn signs in the van, Donnie.

You'll have to take transit.

Come on, I hate bussing to Karate.

The kids are all rangy after b*ating the sh*t out of each other.

Lawn signs, Donnie.

And I'm meeting Jason later.

That's today?

Yes.

I want to be at that.

For heaven sakes, we were high school sweethearts. That's it.

I'm not talking about that, all right?

I'm not talking about being jealous.

Because I am jealous.

Your man is savage jealous, Mrs. Hendrix.

But paying this debt to Kellerman is business, and if we really are going to take it to the next level, then we do that together.

That's the way it's going to be.

Hmm.

Are your underpants tearaway, mister?

No, but the elastic's wearing out, so...

Mmm.

(Ding)

You're late. Where have you been?

Uh, excuse me?

I tried calling you all morning.

Mm-hmm.

Cosima, hang on.

You're back.

I came as soon as I found out Sarah was missing.

Five days too late.

No thanks to you.

Were you planning on telling us?

Yeah, that depends.

Who's "us," Delphine?

It's topside... where I am protecting Leda.

But Castor remains impenetrable, which is why I told Sarah not to go after them in the first place.

Yeah, well, wild type and all that.

Tell me something.

How did you two manage to get your hands on a Castor brain?

Scott: How do you know about that?

Because you ran the tissue through this lab... and Dr. Nealon is not an idiot.

The Prolethean girl, Gracie...

Gracie Johanssen.

Why are you studying her?

Fine.

You want to play games. Now, tell me something.

In all your fun sneaking around... did you notice this?

The same misfolded protein.

Found in both subjects.

Cosima: Oh, my God.

How did this happen?

We studied them in isolation. Had no reason to compare.

The unique protein found in both Gracie Johanssen... and the brain of a dead Castor boy.

Now, that, to me, warrants a follow-up.

Don't you agree?

Man: Double check on that, make sure we have the right numbers.

(Coughs)

Paul: Corporal.

(Sarah coughing)

(Sarah shudders)

What happened?

Are you hurt?

They did something to me.

When?

Last night, I think. (Shudders)

I don't feel right.

God. You're burning up.

Thank you. (Gasping)

Slowly, slowly, slowly.

Get me out of here.

Trust me, I'm trying.

Just get me a car and a g*n and I'll take my chances. (Shudders)

I can't.

Paul! You're the worst of them!

You know that? Because I don't even know where you stand.

(Footsteps)

Welcome back, Major.

She isn't well.

I gave her an anti-inflammatory last night.

She's been having a reaction. It'll pass soon enough.

Bullshit. You did something to me.

Rudy was there.

She's been feverish.

So, tell me. How was Arlington?

Riveting.

Hmm. Come.

(Grunts)

I'll fill you in.

Helena got away, didn't she?

She won't last out there.

If the desert doesn't get her, Rudy will.

(Scorpion purring)

Helena.

Did you hear the one about the pregnant girl who fell down in the desert?

Leave me be.

The only reason you're alive is because of me.

Get up.

I have no strength.

It's not exhaustion that stopped you.

You regret leaving Sarah behind, don't you?

I regret nothing.

Why are you lying here, then?

Because your sister is more important than your baby?

No.

(Scorpion gasps)

Because I'm hungry.

(Scorpion grunting)

(Crunching)

Man: At ease, doctor.

What was done to Sarah Manning last night?

You'd have to ask Dr. Coady. I wasn't there.

Since when are you left out of the medicine?

She's the boss. She shares what she wants.

Look, you were gone for months, Paul.

Things changed.

How?

When I left, we were trying to cure sick soldiers.

When we were still stateside, maybe a month after you left.

Rudy came back from leave with a girl. She was sick.

Man: Hey, doc.

Bloodshot eyes, dizzy. Coady treated her.

On-base?

I didn't think much of it, but after that, the science took a turn.

Things got more secretive.

The boys were told to record their intimate contacts.

You mean take hair samples.

Which I test, for genetic precursors.

Coady says it's for security purposes.

But you know that's not true.

I think she's getting baseline numbers.

Before pictures.

Before what?

I don't know. A different team follows up. I don't have access.

In her quarters. That's where she keeps that material.

I understand that you've been... missing work?

Coming in late.

Are you not feeling well?

I feel great.

Good.

There's nothing I should know?

No.

(Ding)

Delphine.

Felix.

And you must be Gracie.

I know you've probably heard many... frightening things about this place.

A rare instance of Prolethean wisdom.

But I can assure you that we are here to help.

Gracie: But you already... did tests at Mrs. S' house.

Trust me, I know how much this sucks, but we've got some amazing technology here that's... uhm, going to help us learn more, okay?

Uh, this is Scott.

(Beep)

Gracie.

Come on in.

Ladies? We're going to give you a bit of privacy.

Gracie? Be strong, my little urchin.

What is it?

I need your help with something and it's really important, so I don't want any quivering.

Okay.

I want you to take me to Rachel.

What?

If anybody knows about castor, it's going to be her.

I'm not authorized. I'm not even supposed to know where she is.

Yeah, but you do, don't you?

Scott, my sister is missing.

And I am really, really desperate, okay?

Now, nut up, and lead me to the Cyclops.

Sergeant Rollins.

Mark, right? From Sammy's team.

And you're Major Dierden.

When we first met out in the field at that bar...

I had no idea.

Well, we were both undercover, Soldier.

I was just trying to keep it that way.

Good work retrieving the Castor DNA.

Yeah, well, I had help.

You brought Sarah Manning in.

I was with Rudy. It was either take her or terminate.

Made the call.

And marrying the Johanssen girl?

Was that a call, too?

Speak freely.

I fell in love with her.

I need you to do something.

Unofficially.

Jason: Huh. "For my old friend Jage."

Well, you know. In high school, we all called you JJ, but then I shortened it to Jage, so...

There's every single dollar in there, you're paid in full.

I see that.

It's the "continued prosperity" part that concerns me.

I mean, your debt's paid, Alison. You can walk away.

Well, we don't want to walk away, we want to take this to the next level.

The next level? Alison...

(Wheels screech)

(Revving)

Whoa! Did you see that? Yeah!

Oh, Jeez, Louise!

Jason: I was about to brain you, man!

What?

Sorry, whose car is this?

It's ours, baby!

You... you bought this?

10k down in cash! Should have seen the guy's face.

I don't think you guys are ready for the next level.

What? Why not?

Because, Donnie... conspicuous spending is the surest way to attract the attention of the authorities.

Cars aren't conspicuous, Alison. They're, like, everywhere.

There's only one way to launder money. You pay taxes on it.

You guys need a front, and I'm sorry, Allie, but your garage-made soap's not going to cut it.

I... I have a plan.

You do? What plan?

It's something I've been mulling over for a while. It's a business plan.

(Exhales)

We have five minutes.

Gracie: So, this protein. It's in my blood.

That's right. It's similar to something we found in one of... uhm, your husband's brothers.

I know what Mark is.

Then you know that what's in Mark's brothers is in Mark, too.

We think that's maybe how it got transferred to your system.

Jesus.

Go back to your post.

You mean Mark made me sick?

Gracie: Mark isn't sick, he's strong, he's healthy.

The protein can have different effect on different people.

What... what does this mean?

Sir, tell me.

Cosima: Delphine?

What?

Cosima: It's okay.

What is it?

Paul: It's contagious.

Your defect. It's sexually transmitted.

What does it do?

The woman will catch it?

(Gasping)

Silva: Temperature's 103, heart rate increasing, 122.

Coady: Thank you. That's expected.

(Sarah gasps)

Virginia.

I'm placing you under arrest.

Coady: On what grounds?

You're sterilizing women.

(Sarah gasping)

You are unfit to lead. I am taking charge of this camp, and I will use force, Corporal.

Patience, son.

Paul: Put 'em in the stockade.

That's an order, lock 'em up!

Girl: Sarah. Sarah. Sarah!

You gave her the Castor pathogen, didn't you?

Tell me.

Yes.

She received two units of Rudy's blood.

(Sarah gasping)

Paul: Dr. Silva.

Girl: Sarah. Come with me.

I can't get up.

Girl: You don't have to.

Just hold my hand.

Coady: Think... carefully.

Turn around.

(Handcuffs clicking)

(Sarah shuddering)

Paul: You know how to use this?

Yeah.

Don't let anyone in here.

(Shudders)

Girl: Come with me, Sarah. Don't worry.

It's this way, Sarah!

Come on!

Paul: We're here by the beach, documenting my marathon lady in training.

Are you ready to put your body through months of hell for the full?

You're damn right.

Come on, Sarah. We're almost there. Don't be afraid.

Paul: There's my lovely girlfriend, Beth.

Beth, say hi to the camera.

(Indistinct conversation)

(Laughter)

(Creaking)

(Slam)

Hey, there you are.

Beth.

(Gasps)

I was just thinking about the day Paul moved in.

Remember that story?

I don't think I know it.

He had two suitcases to his name. That was it.

Should have been a huge red flag, right?

I was so gaga for him...

I convinced myself he was some kind of zen master, materially unattached.

You two are a good match.

Liars, grifters.

I didn't know you, Beth, when I took your life.

Sarah: Now, I miss you.

No. You don't get to miss me, Sarah!

You hear me? I won't accept that!

I'm trying to finish what you started, to help our sisters, but I keep failing.

Helena's left me and Cosima's still sick.

And I let you jump.

No, I jumped.

I let myself get consumed by this thing.

I k*lled myself because I couldn't understand it.

Neither do I.

You're starting to.

I... I don't understand the why.

Why did you take over my life, Sarah?

For... for Kira.

We do terrible things for the people we love.

Stop asking why.

Start asking who.

Sister.

(Railroad crossing bell)

(Train horn)

Where's Paul?

Jesus. Are you sure? Sterilizing them?

There's medical records going back almost two years.

It's some kind of human trial.

Okay.

All the science? Bag it, it's evidence.

It's also the cure for the boys.

We need to make sure that moves forward.

We will.

Where's coady right now?

Confined to quarters. Camp's on lockdown.

Only people out are guys I trust.

Good. Here's what's going to happen now.

You'll need a formal Removal of Command order and an extraction team.

Yeah.

I will camp out at the Director's office until he sees me.

Now, best case...

I can have a team there in six hours.

Can you keep a lid on things until then?

No sweat.

The Castor boys are not going to take this sitting down.

Are they all accounted for?

There's one patrol still out.

Rudy.

You leave him out there.

You don't need that trouble, Paul. Six hours. Hang in there.

(Beep)

Scott: Okay, quick.

Hello, Rachel.

F...

F... f...

Yeah, f... you, too.

You know, it's funny. Your hand was a lot steadier when you were jamming that needle into my neck, wasn't it?

No, no, no, let's stay here, shall we?

You're not all...

Allowed... here.

Yeah. And do you know what?

If you tell anyone about it, I'm going to come back and I'm going to harass you every day.

I want you to tell me what you know about castor.

Castor.

Ru... rumors...

No, no, no.

Not rumors, they're very real, and they've taken Sarah, so I need you to tell me where they took my sister.

(Chuckles)

Is that funny to you?

Well, let's see what we can do about that, shall we?

Rachel's going to get a bit of a makeover.

Stop.

Felix!

What? I think this is just what the doctor ordered.

Stop!

Yes.

Do you want to see how pretty you look?

Aren't you beautiful?

Scott, get Dr. Nealon.

Tell me what you know.

No one is coming for you! Do you understand?

Because no one cares!

I'm not going to help you if you...

Humiliate you?

I haven't even gotten started! Why don't we go for a spin, shall we?

Scott: Felix, we really should go.

And maybe then she'll tell me where my sister is!

Where did they take her?

Get me out of this... place.

Scott: Felix, let's go.

(Crying)

Donnie: You sure about this, Allie? You hate bubbles.

I hate the way my mother runs it.

But when we own it, we'll run it differently.

As a drug front.

Yes.

Are we in this together or not?

Yeah.

Good.

Oh, sh*t. Your mother's store!

Yes! You remembered.

I remember the stockroom.

Really? Why? What happened there?

Uh, okay, let's go inside. We should go in.

Yeah? Good, good. Okay.

Come on in.

Feel free to explore. Oh, we have... my mother's new men's line. It's minty gleam.

It's her original recipe, but we'll probably update it with a little musk.

Donnie: Okay, Jason doesn't need to know about the musk.

We do the musk part.

This is just a courtesy visit so you can see the business.

You're not going to let go of this, are you?

No, no. I mean, this is a very reputable local business.

Eleven years of clean books.

Good storage... centrally located for distribution.

I mean, you've seen how quickly we can move product, so with bubbles, the sky would be the limit.

Selling soap.

It's perfect.

I was supposed to have children. It was expected of me.

Hey.

You've been through a lot recently. You don't have to... make sense of it all right now, okay?

Part of me feels relieved, Cosima.

Does that make me a monster?

No, honey.

So far from that.

Shall we get you home?

All set.

Okay.

Delphine: Cosima.

I miss you.

(Door opens)

Rudy: When? Yeah. Yeah, I'm on it.

(Beep)

There's a situation back at base.

What kind of situation?

We're needed.

Hey! Come in.

Damn...

What is it?

I was coming here to tell you that I thought maybe we should slow things down.

Oh.

But now that I see you, I just kind of want to make out for, like, seven hours straight.

Do you want to talk about it?

Oh, yeah. After.

(Mobile vibrating)

See, this is what I'm afraid of. sh*t.

You're just going to lose patience with me.

I guess we'll see.

Dude?

Scott: Cosima, the book.

Uh, Duncan's book. With all the weird symbols and stuff.

I think Rachel knows the code.

Human sterilization trials?

Dr. Silva says you haven't shown any of the same symptoms as the other women.

Did you love Beth, Paul?

What?

Did you love her?

What happened to Beth...

I will carry that with me forever.

We were looking for a cure. And we thought Dyad had answers.

I want to talk to Coady.

Paul: Give us a minute.

You gave me Rudy's blood. Why?

Temperature's down, no no hemorrhaging.

Remarkable.

So you knew I'd b*at it. How?

Because Castor and Leda have the same disorder.

It att*cks the boys' brains, the women's epithelial tissue... but as your fertility proves, Sarah, you're somehow able to fight it off.

You're infecting innocent women with it.

To understand it. I didn't put it in the boys, I just found it.

So it's engineered. Who engineered it? Was it Duncan?

It's a w*apon. You're field-testing it.

You want to isolate it, to develop it in other forms.

It could end wars in a single generation without spilling a drop of blood.

So who wants it?

Who is it for?

(Parking brake ratchets)

Where's Rudy?

He set out on foot.

I lost contact.

What the hell's going on here?

Major Dierden has command. The camp's on lockdown.

You're confined to quarters.

That's bullshit.

Hey.

(Muffled grunt)

Brother.

Paul and Sarah are still out there.

We need to go.

Help is coming.

You're still trying to save them?

None of this is their fault.

Mark: Major... Major.

Patrol came back, without Rudy. I checked the sat phone and...

Major, they got a call from Arlington.

(Mobile ringing)

Paul, what's your status?

That depends on you.

Extraction team's en route.

Rudy's patrol is still out.

But we can't reach their sat phone.

Well... Good. It's what we want.

Is there a problem?

No, sir. We'll be waiting.

(Beep)

We have to go.

Go back to your quarters. You never spoke to me. Do you understand?

Mark: Sir...

Make this right.

(Grunt)

Paul: Listen to me!

Listen to me! Ah! Ah!

(Stabbing)

(Snap)

(Thud)

Paul, Paul, Paul.

sh*t.

Paul! No.

Let's go. Let's go.

Yep. Yep.

Okay. It's this way.

Through here. Through here.

Hey! What are you doing?

This tunnel comes out in a garage.

You take a jeep, go northwest.

Paul, I'm not leaving without you. Open the gate.

Listen to me, open the gate! Paul!

It was never Beth I loved.

Paul. Paul!

Beth: What kind of guy are you?

What kind of guy am I?

Yeah.

You know what kind of guy I am.

First thing, secure the science.

(g*n cocks)

Does he know what he's done to those women?

I know exactly what I do, sir.

Rudy...

Your devotion to my boys was pure, Paul.

I could always count on it.

Cure them, Virginia.

Drop the rest.

Coady: The science in this room could rewrite the very nature of humankind.

You ask me to turn my back on it?

I'm sorry, Paul.

I can't.

Run!

(Gasps)

(Coughs)

You came back.

Come, Sestra.

People miss us.

(Sobbing)

Helena: When I see this "S," I will k*ll her.

Hello, Helena.

A vote for Alison Hendrix is a vote for change.

I can't sell you the store.

Alison: There's been a hiccup.

We need that storefront in order to move all this product.

We'll have it to you by tonight.

You know, whatever this is, it's not cool.

I don't really care.

We're drug dealers.

He's being held c*ptive by some man called Paucho.

What are you doing? Oh, my God! Ah!
