Hey, Matt.

Is it true you've ordered
non-lethal weapons?

Morning, Becker.

Jess, so...

- Three extra shelves.
- Yeah.

I got a lot of plants.

The team needs real g*ns, we're not
collecting for petting zoo.

These creatures aren't just interesting,
they're also deadly.

Yeah, I know.

So, you know what happens
when they cut corners.

People get hurt.
People die.

Why don't you just give the new weapons a
chance? You might be pleasantly surprised.

Jess.

Yeah, lots of shelves,
lots of plants, I got it.

I'll see you both
at the meeting.

He's got no idea.

I don't know.
I think he's alright?

Yeah, but I don't trust him.

And you'll see, the rest of
the team won't either.

Okay, guys. For those of you
who I've not met properly.

My name is Matt Anderson. I'm your
new team leader. For the last...

...couple of days your steamed
colleague Captain Becker has been...

...banding my ear on
every detail of this operation.

To insure...

...that you properly lived after?

So I would like to assure
you that safety...

...the safety of this entire team...

...even the safety of Captain
Becker is my number one priority.

Your jobs are demanding.

Your jobs are dangerous.

You put your lives on the line to protect
the public every time that alarm goes off.

There's no room for errors.

There's no time for on the job training.

So with all of that in mind,

some new policy changes
are being implemented.

All new field operatives
will be strictly m*llitary...

...or from the m*llitary background.

Safety will come first.

There will be no more
civilian recruiting.

If anyone wants to talk about this,
my door is always open.

Over the last few months,

a lot of you've testified to the
last mission of the old ARC.

Yesterday...

...that investigation was
officially wrapped up.

Abby Maitland, Connor Temple
and Danny Quinn...

...have been pronounced missing...

...presumed dead.

I would like to make it clear today
that this means absolutely nothing.

Over the years, this organization has
lost many brilliant people...

...including Nick Cutter, Stephen Hart,
most recently Sarah Page...

As far as I'm concerned,
this does not include Abby Maitland,

Connor Temple
and Danny Quinn.

These people could still be out
there, fighting to stay alive,

fighting to make it home.

I didn't have the chance to work
with them all as you did.

But I hope that someday I will.

So today as you new team leader, I'm
rejecting the government's findings.

- See? Told you.
- We're not giving up on these guys.

Not yet.
