If the CRM would've destroyed Omaha,

- She's lying to you.

I'm the closest thing to a
friend in the CR you got.

- So, Dad's happy?
- HOPE: He has a girlfriend.

- You're gonna turn yourselves in?
- That's our plan.

ASHA: What if we turned you in,
made it look like we caught you?

We need to talk.

FELIX: You were a mole in both places.

I told you, I was just part of a
standard observe and report mission.

- At least, until...
- Until it became about me.

My mother was the one who
oversaw the CR's dealings

between Omaha and the Campus Colony.

I was nobody.

Yeah, so sh**ting me and
k*lling my uncle was your call.

k*lling everybody else was hers?

Is that about right?

Only Major General Beale could've
authorized something this big.

But yeah.

My mom would've seen the order.

You don't have any idea why
they'd do something like this?

Even before they formed the Alliance

with Omaha and Portland,

the Civic Republic kept
its location hidden

to make sure that everything
within its borders

was kept at a statistical balance.

Resources, food, population.

An influx of people,
a potential for conflict.

Any of that would have jeopardized
what they've built.

Someway, somehow, Beale must've thought

that Omaha and the Campus Colony
was a thr*at to that balance.

The Hidden City... where is it?

the wrong alliances.

- Sorry.
- So was I.

And after, I had an opportunity,

and I created a ticket to
get into the Civic Republic.

I gave the CRM something very valuable,

and I got a new life.

For the first time in
years, I had safety,

but my purpose was gone.

'Til I realized that it wasn't.

It had just expanded.

Mm.

My purpose was still to survive.

And I'd gotten good at it with
everything that I'd been through.

You're still an ambitious survivor.

Moving up.

Oh, it's not just about moving up.

I know that the Civic Republic
is the last light of the world,

and my purpose is to create
a new era on this planet.

It's your purpose, too.

It is.

The way you keep saying it makes
me wonder if you believe it.

Your mother asked me to keep
an eye on you while I was here.

It was couched as a mother's worry,

but I wonder

if she thinks that you may
have been out there too long,

that you've formed some bonds,

that you've become a different person.

She doesn't. You're wrong.

Or I'm right about her and
she's wrong about you.

The theater that helps you
survive is hard to let go.

Before the world ended,
my name wasn't Jadis.

♪

But that name, that identity,

it helped me live, so Jadis is who I am.

You're stronger than me.

You're stronger than most.

If your mother is worried,
you might be confused.

It would be understandable.

We could help her prove
that you're not, Huck.

♪

[GLASS THUDS]

My name's not Huck.

♪

Am I your investigation?

I'm here to investigate a few things.

If you were one of them, it'd be easy.

I could help you prove
that you're still you,

and you could help me by
talking up how wonderful I am

to anyone who will listen.

I need a promotion before
the end of the year.

Like I said.

You're an ambitious survivor.

[SIGHS]

I already bled and broke
my bones for the corps,

done everything I could to
prove what I'm made of.

You've done a lot, no question.

But there is always more.

Hope's right... we need answers.

PERCY: And then what?

Then, we make sure they
don't get away with it.

Okay, then. Let's get some answers.

When Leo first lays this
information on them,

the fact that there's
something going on here,

both Iris and Hope pretty
much instantly decide

that they need to stay,

but the thing is, is that
they decide to stay

for two different reasons.

There are good people here...

the scientists, students like us.

For Hope, it's really about,

not just finding out
what's going on here,

but she is convinced,
based on her time here

at the research facility,

that there are a lot of good people here

and they don't realize what's going on.

What did you write?

I told them we were going to
find out what the CRM is up to,

stop them from ever doing it again.

♪

And then, we're going to burn
this place to the ground.

You know, for Iris, it's really
about she sees this place as evil,

you know, she wants to find
out what they're up to,

but it's not just to find out.

She also wants to do something about it.

She wants to put an end to it.

Her motivation is really
about vengeance,

which is a much darker
motivation than Hope's.

♪

- [GRUNTS]
- [MOANING]

You see these, these empties
with these backpacks on them

and, you know, what this is,
we're finding out more about it,

but these are, essentially,
tracking devices

and they're a way to monitor
migration patterns,

as well as getting like their reaction

to environmental stimuli.

Their main goal is to find out

how to basically liquidate
them as a thr*at

and maybe this could be a small
stepping stone to that end.

Just understanding how they
operate is a big part of that.

[PAPERS RUSTLE]

- Oy.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]

Oh, that's okay, Dr. Bennett.

Please, call me Leo.

Leo is someone who we've
always known was very smart.

He's doing great things
at the research facility,

but he's smart enough
to know that the CRM

isn't someone that they
can trust, necessarily,

but he does trust Lyla.

Hey.

Hey.

To that end, it really does
just floor him to... to realize

that this person that
he thought he trusted,

he can no longer trust.

♪

And the thing for him, in this episode,

is he just wants to find out

how she's involved and to what degree,

what her motivations are,
and, really, like, who is she,

what makes her tick?

There is something.

Something I haven't been
honest with you about.

And he really just needs
answers from her,

without actually coming
out and asking her,

and, by the end of the episode,
he does get those answers

and I think it's pretty
shocking for him.

JADIS: Jennifer!

Staff Sergeant.

Warrant Officer Stokes.

The decision to bring Jadis on,

you know, I do think the
promise of a universe

is that all these different
worlds are connected

and it really felt like
a great opportunity

to start tying some threads together.

I created a little
society quite quickly.

I can believe that.

We really wanted to
amp up the stakes a bit

for the back half of Season .

You know, we've established
Elizabeth as this villain,

but, at the end of the day,
like she is Huck's mother

and she cares about Huck.

Until further notice,

you'll be answering to me.

And so there really was
something to the idea

of bringing in a character
that we've known before,

but we don't know what this
character is capable of.

So, you were ambitious,
even as a survivor.

I really want the audience
to look at Jadis

and, even though we know who she
is and where she's come from,

we don't really know what
she stands for anymore.

I know that the Civic Republic
is the last light of the world.

My purpose is to create
a new era on this planet.

♪

It's your purpose, too.

And so that really puts
her at odds with Huck,

who is a former friend.

So she's there, really,
to remind Huck who she was

and to make sure that who
she was is still who she is.

So what's our best way in?

This is the first episode,
you know, we've seen,

since the end of last season,

where Huck and Felix are
actually working together.

They have this mission

and they have to be on the same
side for this, for it to work.

Wait for my go.

Or don't.

But, really, what this mission
comes down to, for both of them,

is trust... do they trust each other?

[ELECTRICITY CRACKLING]

Go! Now.

[BUZZ]

Felix was stuck in that freezer.

Felix thought that, maybe,
she had changed her mind

and there's... there's a world where,
maybe, Huck did, for a moment.

Huck, come on, talk to me.

We see her beside that transformer.

She's about to be exposed
and it's really hitting her,

in that moment, the
choice that she's made.

And, for Felix, he doesn't
know what to believe.

He wants to believe that
she's a good person,

but, in this moment,
he has doubts as well.

sh*t!

And it works out that
Huck comes through.

For whatever it's worth,

I am with you.

She's leaving some wiggle room
for herself in that moment.

She's not guaranteeing
that she's on his side.

At least, until I can't be.

She does assure Felix,
but at the same time,

she's assuring him just for now,

so, we'll see what happens next.
