The following presentation is rated TV 14.

Well, I just got off the phone with the fire department, and tonight's place at

St. Nichols bears all the same earmarks as the one at First Patriot's Baptist.

No evidence of flammable materials?

None so far.

Spontaneous combustion, intense burning, then the flames die out on their own?

No, there was one difference, though. They recovered a body. It was a chair

beyond recognition.

So now we have eight fires in three cities.

Well, all the information from Boston points to a teenage cult.

But I'm having a little bit of...

Difficulty buying that.

Three churches in Boston, three in Dallas.

There are now two in San Francisco.

So that means it's only a matter of time before another one goes up in flames in

our backyard.

Well, Derek picked a great time to be in London.

Well, I'm sure he'd rather be here than debriefing the council on Sloan's

disappearance.

Yeah.

Expecting someone?

No. I'll check it out.

Yes, Jonathan.

Who is she?

Okay, this should be very interesting. Thanks.

Yeah.

Hi.

Can I help you?

The guard at the gate told me to come up.

I'm Kristen Adams. I'm with the Boston House.

Boston House. Nobody mentioned... I came to follow up on the fire at First

Savior's Baptist Church.

I didn't know that you guys were still active in this investigation.

Mm -hmm.

We were just looking into another fire.

There was a second fire? When?

A few hours ago. St. Nichols over in Columbus.

That's the second occurrence in San Francisco.

If you just wait here for a minute, then I'll be right back.

Good

morning.

Derek Rain, please.

One moment.

Derek Rain. Hi, Derek. It's Nick.

Investigation going now. We're plugging away.

Okay. I was just curious if you knew anything the boss and how sending

out here First time I've heard of it.

What's the name?

Kristen Adams, you know her Not personally.

She let the investigation in Boston She's them quite young.

It's very special Okay, you hold it for a moment.

Yeah They need you back at the council.

I'm sure you make miss Adams feel at home.

Oh kid. Okay.

Thank you there

I just spoke to our pre -staff, Derek Rain, and he said to make you feel at

home.

What, you scared him off already?

Didn't take long, huh?

Graduated with honors from Harvard in anthropology at age 19.

So she skipped a few grades along the way.

Spent three summers abroad on archaeological digs in the Middle East,

America, and India.

Okay, so she's a prodigy with bonus miles. Now the question is, why did she

in and out of here so quickly?

I'm sure she'll explain everything when she comes back.

I'm sure.

If she comes back.

Excuse me, have you... Excuse me, have you seen this boy?

Excuse me, have you seen this boy?

It's all right now.

Thanks, Alice.

You look lost.

Yeah, do you know where the Y is?

All alone in the big city, huh?

Kinda.

Cindy Smith.

David Johansson.

I know one person in San Francisco.

If you want, I can introduce you to some of my friends.

Yeah?

No, a bunch of us live together in this really cool house.

You can hang out for a while if you want.

It's a lot nicer than the Y.

Do you always keep the bus station looking for new friends?

No. I belong to a youth group that provides support to teenagers.

You're not interested.

Well, I didn't say I wasn't interested.

It's your call.

Let's go.

Hey, the car's over here.

Sorry,

I couldn't get back to you earlier.

We're still wrestling with the Sloan situation here. Any thoughts on how to

him back?

Well, we could recreate some kind of gateway to the dark side, but there are

guarantees we could retrieve Sloan even if... Francis Carlin called from the

coroner's office and asked me to stop by.

And how are things going with Miss Adams?

Interesting. We found out her trip here wasn't sanctioned by Boston.

Somewhat irregular, but not unheard of.

Well, I'm not really crazy about the idea of her running around doing a solo

while we're trying to conduct an investigation.

I remember expressing those same sentiments about you on a few occasions.

Hello. I need information on a license plate right away.

It's her.

3 -S -B -I -2 -5 -8. I need a name and a street address as soon as possible.

Where are you?

Wasting time. Just get me the information as soon as you can.

Yeah, we'd like to know where you are.

I'll call back.

You do that.

See what I'm saying?

Well, it sounds like Ms. Adams might be onto something.

Keep me informed.

Why do I have the feeling that she's throwing a party and we're doing the

catering?

And this is Robert. Hi.

Hi, David. Nice to meet you.

Likewise. Do you guys, uh, y 'all live here?

Isn't it great?

Oh, there's a game room in the back.

What do you guys do all day?

Get out the word.

The word.

Of the enlightened one.

You know, I appreciate the offer and everything, but this really isn't for

I'm so glad you could join us.

I gotta go.

Go where, David?

Back to Harrisville, Wisconsin, and the father who beat you?

Leave if you want to.

But I hate to think of you wandering those streets, falling prey to the sick

monsters that lurk in the alleyways.

We can give you everything you need right here.

I'm just really not into religion.

You mean the enlightened one.

Well, I can assure you that we're not into religion either.

No, we're not going to... Is there a problem, Ethan?

No problem.

How did... The ways of the Enlightened One will be revealed to you in time,

David. For now, have faith.

The rest will follow.

And you can see from the pattern of the charring that the heat was extremely

intense.

Have you been able to identify the body yet?

As a matter of fact, I made some dental plates.

Oh, well.

I don't know where you're going to turn up next.

When I phoned the house, Alex told me you were on your way here, so I thought

was best that I join you.

No problem.

The other way I am.

Hold that light for a second, you want it?

It's from a stolen car I know Alex told me.

What was that all about?

It's not important.

Francis was just giving me an overview on the condition of our victim.

You know, I think that can wait. You and I need to talk.

And I think that can wait.

Nick, I was just telling Kristen that we happened to pull a dental impression.

I'd like you to meet Father Donald Hawthorne, the priest from the church.

Well, at least we got a name now.

So what did you want to show me?

I.

Take a look at this.

It's like a triangle.

Yeah, but take a closer look.

You see right here?

There are three triangles inside of a circle.

He was branded first and then left to die in the fire.

This was no accident.

Looks like our boy moved up from arson to murder.

Francis, thank you so much for this information.

Sure.

Nick, you and I can review our notes later this afternoon.

Can you believe her?

Hey, don't look at me.

The two of us were getting along just fine before you got here.

Hold on a second.

We need to talk. Well, I completely agree, but right now we don't have the

I have all the time in the world.

I'm afraid I don't.

I spoke to Andrew Martin.

And he told you I'm on leave.

You failed to mention that.

This is a legacy case.

I'm a legacy member.

What does it matter who paid for the plane ticket? We work as a team here.

Your idea of teamwork is to call when you need information. And frankly, that

doesn't fly with me.

With all due respect, I'm not looking to win Miss Congeniality. There's no

danger of that.

I just want to find out who started the fires.

So do we. And maybe, if you let us, we might actually be able to help.

I'd appreciate that.

As soon as I get back.

From where?

Really, don't worry.

I'll meet you back at the house.

And when the enlightened one came down from heaven, he brought with him the

truth that this so -called word of God preached by organized religion is a

The churches promote blind faith and urge their followers to treat each other

with Christian charity as long as a good part of that charity ends up in their

collection plate.

The church breeds weakness.

They tell their followers that when they are struck to turn the other cheek, to

return violence with love and compassion,

But if we do not defend ourselves against attack, we simply end up

battered victims. Isn't that true, David?

Yes.

The Enlightened One tells us that violence must be countered with

This is the tool by which we can help stop the spread of lies that is being

promoted throughout the world by these charlatans of the cloth.

We are engaged in a holy war.

A righteous war to help free our fellow men and women from being blinded by

these false prophets.

The Enlightened One.

Angel of light and might, our Father who came down from heaven, give us the

strength to cleanse mankind and infuse the spirit of the masses with your

I spent the last hour on the phone bringing Derek up to speed before he got

his turtle flight.

When we finished this phone debriefing? Yeah, finally.

So what have you got?

I'm still trying to figure out the geographic pattern to these fires.

Could somebody let me into the control

room, please?

Oh, impressive.

Definitely far homier than the control room back in Boston.

Well, most of the time, this is our home.

Alex, it is such a pleasure to meet you. I've heard so much about you since

joining the Legacy.

Really? Mm -hmm.

Even though there have been a few improvements over the years, the Legacy

remains a boys' club.

So the success you've had in the field has made it a little easier for the rest

of us.

Well, thank you. I never thought of myself as a trailblazer.

Well, maybe you should start.

Okay there, St. Joan. Hate to break up the tea party.

Our resident chauvinist.

Yes, we've met.

So where did you head off to?

I was at the bus depot this morning, where I saw a young woman proselytizing

wide -eyed boy from the Midwest.

Do you think she might be a member of the cult responsible for the fires?

Mm -hmm. But I lost them when they drove away.

So this afternoon, after the coroner's office, I went back to the bus depot,

hoping she'd be there, but no luck.

I thought I'd review your archives and see if there's any information about

mark we found on Father Hawthorne's skull.

Great. I'll already start pulling out some reference books.

Well, you girls go to it. I'll just be here playing with the maps, chopping a

quart of firewood, killing a bear or two.

I appreciate a man who knows how to make himself useful.

Smart and funny.

So...

Nick seems like an interesting guy.

Interesting. Well, that's one way of putting it.

Must be nice to work with somebody like that.

Well, you must have a Nick equivalent in Boston.

No. I'm the youngest there by about 20 years.

We have three very stodgy men and a woman named Jane Witherspoon.

I've met Jane.

backbone of wrought iron, supporting 65 years of proper Brahmin upbringing.

I do know Jane.

Needless to say, the Boston house can be somewhat stifling.

No, don't get me wrong. I love the work. I feel very fortunate to be part of

this organization.

But sometimes I do get it.

Terrible sensation that one morning I'm going to look in the mirror and see Jane

Witherspoon staring back at me. And I'll wonder where my life went.

I know what you mean. I... This life, this place. I keep

trying to find a balance between my personal life and my work here, but I...

Well, sometimes I wonder if it's possible.

I'm sure some of the gentlemen you met along the way have sought you out.

Um... Well, maybe I've just been preoccupied with what I've been doing.

Anyway, I tend to be a fairly private person.

Too private for a cup of coffee?

Oh, Alex, I found it.

This sign here was used by a 17th century French priest, a Julien Pinchot.

Okay, because the upside -down triangle represents the unholy trinity.

Right, it says here...

And Sho took up the practice of the dark side to try to destroy the church from

the inside.

Destroy the church. Sounds familiar.

Troubled, my son?

No. Everything's okay.

I'm worried about you, Ethan.

Lately, your faith seems to be wavering.

I'm just a little confused as well.

We're all a little confused about life, but there's no room to be confused about

your conviction.

I understand.

Yes.

I understand.

We made our voices heard with the fires.

But now that we're escalating our war and making a bolder statement, I need to

know you're with me 100%. I'm with you, Jordan.

I think before we strike again, we should spend some quality time together.

So you think that the members of this cult are disciples of a priest who went

bad over 300 years ago?

Well, actually, this mark would signify that they're disciples of the

Enlightened One, otherwise known as Lucifer.

And if this cult leader is a follower of Lucifer, there's a good chance that

he's a practitioner of the Black Arts.

That would go a long way to explain the paranormal nature of the fires.

Once he strikes again, he could move on to any other city.

We've got to stop him.

Well, unfortunately, we have no idea where to begin.

I mean, the burnings all seem to be random.

Well, what if we stopped looking at each city individually and started looking

at the big picture? Go on.

There's nine points in the diagram, right?

That could be it.

Overlap the three maps and line up the eight previous targets to form

The ninth target completes the design.

The Church of the Holy Redemption.

Let's go.

No, why don't I call the police?

No.

Look, they may be able to stop a fire or save somebody's life. If the police

show up, they could scare away the leader and he could go into hiding. Then

lose the trail forever.

We can stop them ourselves, but we've got to be there to do it.

All right.

Why don't you guys step outside and do a perimeter sweep and I'll have a look in

here. You mean keep the weaker sex out of harm's way? I don't think so.

Come on, Kristen.

It's not about that, all right?

No, it's called covering each other's flank. It's part of being a team player.

I didn't fly all the way from Boston just to be a bystander.

In that case, carry on. All right.

Come on, Father.

Come on, Father.

One day when we meet in the hereafter, you're going to thank me for putting you

on the right path.

Ethan?

Kristen?

That's far enough.

This way.

Stop!

You're not going running around out there with a human flamethrower. You

understand. We have to get them.

Who's Ethan?

He's my brother.

Stay here.

They disappeared into thin air.

Why the hell didn't you tell us about your brother?

Would it have made any difference?

It might have been the difference.

You know, it's bad enough that you put yourself and your brother in jeopardy,

but to do that to me and Alex... I never intended to jeopardize your safety.

But you did.

The moment you shouted out his name.

The point is, we trust each other with our lives. That's the way it works here.

Look, we all want to get this guy.

And now we want to find your brother.

So this would be a good time for you to stop treating us like the enemy.

I was afraid that if anyone found out about Ethan, they would take me off the

investigation.

You know how we have that strict rule about mixing business with personal

agendas.

So I heard.

What he means is that we've been known to bend the rules from time to time.

Only when we're not breaking them.

So tell us about Ethan.

He vanished about six months ago.

around the time of the first church fire in Boston.

Someone who saw the fire start described a teenage boy walking away from the

burning church.

That boy was Ethan.

Was he the type of person who would join a cult?

I didn't think so, but these things tend to surprise everyone, I guess.

Well, does he have a history of violence?

No.

Ethan is the kindest, gentlest person that I know.

He gets it from my mother.

Sweet, but weak.

I assume you take after your father.

Yes, I think I got a few of his genes.

Very hard on himself and those around him, always striving for perfection.

Spelled disaster for Ethan, who's a classic underachiever.

He could never really measure up in my father's eyes.

I'm sorry that I didn't follow protocol back at the church.

But until I saw Ethan, I didn't know if he was still alive.

Well, now that we know he is, we're going to find him.

This evening we went into the night to wage our ongoing battle.

We didn't achieve our goal, but we did capture one of the enemy.

A man of the cloth, whose daily sermons attack our angel.

We have also learned that Ethan is related to another one of our enemies.

Not a preacher.

No.

This one is from an organization far more dangerous.

I believe your sister can be saved.

But the good priest here must be made to suffer the consequences of years of

spreading lies.

Come, Ethan.

Gather strength by vanquishing your enemy.

The enlightened one is all -knowing and all -powerful.

You need to know what happens if you don't honor your commitment to him and

the cause.

So for the past six months, she's been searching for her brother?

Oh, she didn't want to say anything because she's afraid she'd be taken off

case?

Well, if her brother is a member of this cult, it does give her a unique

incentive.

Dr. Rain.

Kristen Adams.

We do not stand on formality here, so please call me Derek.

Alex and Nick just told me about your brother.

Then you know I'll do anything to get him back.

And you'll do anything to help.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

So the question is now...

How to find him?

Since we broke up their last party, there's no real way of knowing where

going to strike next.

The Church of the Holy Redemption does complete his pattern.

Maybe they'll try and hit there.

Why don't they stick it out for a few days?

What happens after this madman burns down his ninth church and completes his

design? Does he just move on to a new city and start all over again? Or does

go underground?

If he does, what happens to his followers?

Yes? Kristen, it's Ethan.

Ethan, where are you?

They're after me, Fish.

Okay, try to calm down and tell me where you are.

5525 Market Street.

5525 Market Street. Stay right there.

No, listen, I can't. They're going to kill me. Go and hide someplace and look

for a... Red Mustang.

Look for a Red Mustang.

We'll be there as soon as we can.

Okay.

Hurry.

All right, I'll warm up the chopper.

I don't want to lose him again, Nick.

Be in the city in ten minutes.

What do you know about Kristen's background?

Nick and I did a check on her bio, but it was all pretty sketchy.

Well, I know that her father, Justin Adams, was a consultant in the legacy

business.

Consultant?

Yeah, quite a well -known scientist from the New England area.

pioneer in DNA dating. The legacy occasionally used him inside to verify

on certain artifacts.

He used him. Did he die?

Well, no one is certain. He went out on a legacy dig and never returned.

There was an investigation, but it was inconclusive.

Some suspected foul play and others believed that he may have chosen to

disappear from society for personal reasons.

I wonder what Kristen believes.

Well, the preceptor at the Boffin House told me Kristen is convinced her father

is still alive and determined to find him at all costs.

First her father, then her brother. You have to admire her tenacity.

Oh, here it is.

The tweet is written by Cardinal Rozier.

It says that Julian Pinchot burned churches across France.

Their locations formed the sign of Lucifer.

Just like today.

How did they stop him?

His powers were counteracted by a cross made of iron wood which bore the

inverted mark of the enlightened one.

creating the mark of the Holy Trinity, effectively reversing the evil and

turning it back on its source.

Does it say how they stopped him?

Well, no one is certain. He simply vanished.

There were reports of Binchot's ghost haunting the sites of burned -out

churches.

So this modern -day anarchist could be the reincarnation of Binchot.

Yeah, or a disciple.

Anything is possible.

We have to keep looking, Nick.

We've been around the block twice. He could be anywhere.

He's got to come to us.

It's going to be all right.

You don't have any brothers or sisters, do you?

No.

And you have no idea what I'm going through?

No.

All right.

Wow.

You work here?

For the time being, yeah.

Ethan.

I'm so glad you're here.

So am I.

This is Derek Rain, and this is Alex Moreau. How are you doing?

Oh, well, I'm better now.

Alex, why don't you take them into the living room? I'll be right there.

Okay, follow me, you guys.

So you can say that this guy's name was Jordan.

Jordan.

Hebrew for the Descender.

Fallen to Earth.

Just like Lucifer.

I think we have a weapon to stop him.

I need to get started on this right away.

Wooden cross?

You think that's going to do it?

It defeated Pinchot in the 17th century.

Hopefully it will work again.

All right.

Ethan, are you all right?

Yeah.

I just, uh... I can't believe that you've been looking for me this whole

Well, that's what big sisters are for.

Ethan?

It's very important you tell us whatever you know about his men, Jordan.

It's all pretty fuzzy, you know. I mean, it feels like it's been one long dream.

One long nightmare.

Well, whatever you can remember will be helpful.

Well, I met him in Boston.

It's hard to explain, but he seemed to have all the answers that I was looking

for.

He filled a void.

I guess.

But he could be so many things.

You know, he could be warm and caring.

And then he could be violent and frightening. But everything he did

right. Did he mention the enlightened one?

The enlightened one?

The angel of light and light. Our father who came down from heaven. Ethan.

I think you should rest, okay?

Like Jordan's been doing some heavy -duty brainwashing.

When Jordan finds out that Ethan got away, he might go underground again.

So we have to find out what Ethan knows about him now.

Yeah.

It's okay. I'm all right, Kristen.

Jordan said that the ways of the church were weak and that we had to be strong.

He said that feeble ministers play the devil game to fill their churches and to

pay the mortgages on their temples.

Only the enlightened one can guide us with his undefiled wisdom. Only he can

lead us down the path toward true righteousness.

And it was all a lie, wasn't it?

Yes.

But a very seductive one.

Where is Jordan safe on us?

I can take you there. No.

I'm not going to allow his life to be put in danger again.

It's time I took responsibility for myself, Kristen.

This is something that I need to do.

That's it right there All right, let's stick to the plan,

okay Let's go.

No, you're staying here Listen to your sister stay here until it's over

I'll go have a quick look around.

You've done well, Ethan.

Ethan?

Ethan?

Stay back.

Ethan?

Ethan?

Join us, Kristen.

Jordan can save you like he saved me.

My God, Ethan, don't listen to him. He's pure evil.

No, no, no, no. Only the false prophets are truly evil.

Join us, Christian.

Release my brother.

Your brother, if you knew him, no longer exists.

Don't even try it.

Let him go and take me instead.

I may take you as well, or I may send all of you to meet your pitiful God.

I know who you're dealing with. I know exactly who -

It's over.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry.

I hope you don't mind we made ourselves at home in your kitchen.

If it's all right, we'll stay here for a little while, just until Ethan's well

enough to go back to Boston.

You're more than welcome to stay as long as you want.

I just might take you up on that idea.

Morning.

Hey. Ethan, you look like you're recovering nicely.

Yeah, yeah, I feel a lot better.

Are there any more eggs?

Oh, you're in luck.

I was just planning on making one of my special San Francisco oyster omelets.

He's kidding, right? Oh, no, he's not.

I never kid about stuff like that. This is authentic Navy seal food.

It, uh, sounds good to me.

See, I knew I'd like this kid.

You're not actually related to her, are you?

Oh, you bet.

Well, she was in a rare form last night.

Picked up the cross and it did run, fake left, and then plastered the guy with

it.

I didn't know they taught that at Harvard.

Well, they don't.

I was the captain of the field hockey team at St. Mary's.

Maybe you'd like to scrimmage sometime.

You know, maybe we should stick to some less physical things, you know,

something you'd have a chance at. You play chess?

Bad idea.

She's a killer.

Is there anything you don't do well?

Well, I'm not great at thank yous.

And I owe one to all of you.

You risked your lives last night.

It's part of the job.

It's called family.

Family.

It shapes who we are.

It defines us, and it protects us.

Ours had been torn apart, but now Ethan is back.

Maybe tomorrow our father will return from his journey.

In the meantime, I take comfort in knowing we will always have a family in

legacy.
