Get him out of here.

What are you doing?

What's happening?

They've tricked you. It's nothing.

Listen to the crowd.

Listen.

It's just a kid, Ebony. It's just a kid dressed up. Listen to them.

They know.

They need you now, Ebony.

They need you to lead them.

Suit is risen.

I've seen this show before.

Don't leave.

Oh, no.

It's probably a good time left.

I'll get some blankets.

Where are you guys going? We need you.

It's okay, Jack. I've got her. Get the grill.

Amber?

I'm okay.

Jack, get everybody here now. We need to secure the perimeter.

Check the windows, doors, everything. Do exactly as he says.

Celine.

Celine, you okay?

Me? Yeah, no, I'm fine.

I want you and Ellie to check the exits and entrances.

Make sure there's no way into this place.

I want you and May to check the basement.

How can we get the basement?

Do you want to die, gal?

Well, do you?

Something's being let loose out there that we can't control.

And if it decides to head this way and succeeds in breaking in... Okay, okay, I

get the picture.

May, check everything.

Check the cages, the bars, the entrance to the sewers, everything.

Sure.

I got it.

What? How good you are at giving orders.

How are you feeling?

Faint, dizzy.

Jay, you think they'll come to the mall?

You think they'll try and take my baby? You don't need to worry about that.

She's badly hurt. Can you help?

I told you, Del, it'd become a liability.

You'd have blown the whole thing. I had to do it. In front of Ebony? Ebony

doesn't know what she saw.

It's no big deal.

So what do I tell her when she comes to, starts asking questions?

You don't tell her anything.

We have the dosage we're giving her. Make it so she can tell the difference

between what's real and what isn't. I thought that's what we'd already done.

You got a problem with that?

No.

Not if we want to turn her into a vegetable.

Listen to me.

Ebony's just a temporary cipher.

An emblem of Zoot.

I can't control her anymore.

You don't have to.

Don't you see?

That's the beauty of this program.

Just a few more days, Jabba. Then when the whole city is scared and the things

everyone wants are being pulled down in front of them, we'll offer them a way

out.

Trust me. It'll all work out.

Just do it, Jabba.

Increase the dosage.

Starting tonight.

No,

Amber. He needs me.

Trudy will look after him. But he needs feeding now.

You better go.

There, it's taken care of.

Now rest.

I'm scared, Jay.

This is the worst. The worst it's ever been.

We'll find a way.

What if we don't? What if there isn't a way?

That's not like you.

I thought we could free people from their nightmares, but maybe it's their

nightmares they want.

Is everything secure, Jack? Yeah.

What is it?

Fires have broken out all over the city. Everyone stays on guard, Jack.

Whoa, you're leaving?

I have to go see Mega. You can't be serious. There's total anarchy out

You know what they say about desperate times.

Don't you see?

You're being used.

Then why are they here?

They've come to follow him, Siva.

They saw him rise from the dead. Only it wasn't him. It was just some kid. A

phony.

What's going on?

I've told her.

Luke says he's pleased.

He'll visit you tonight.

Then he's alive.

Of course.

You saw him return.

Everyone saw.

I'm like you.

Sometimes I think this is all a dream.

But we mustn't doubt, Siva.

What the hell do you think you're doing? Telling her the truth?

Get real, Siva.

If we don't control Ebony, she'll control us.

She doesn't know what she's doing. And you want her to.

You want Ebony back.

Scheming, ruthless, manipulative Ebony.

This time we're the ones in control, Siva.

And that's the way it's going to stay.

Tell me.

Yes or no?

I'm sorry.

Right now, I can't spare anybody.

Looks like the mole rats are going to have to get by on their own.

You know, there's a rumor going around.

What rumor?

Ram was seen in a truck.

He was nearly lynched, apparently.

Nearly?

Unfortunately, he got away.

We have to find Omega before this gets worse.

And what if we don't?

Then we impose our own measures.

What measures?

I'll let you know.

Cass, what are you doing?

Nothing.

Jack, are they going to hurt us?

Oh, no, sweetie, we're not going to let that happen.

I've got an idea. Do you want to help me?

Okay. Well, I need my toolbox, which is in the cafe, so you grab me my box, and

me and you, we'll set a booby trap.

Okay.

Sal, can you give me a hand with the kid?

Sal?

Why are we even trying?

What?

There's no point.

Not anymore.

Look, Selene, you've got to snap out of this, okay? Life goes on, so just get a

grip. Hey, I can't.

I can't.

Oh, Sal.

This is how it happens.

You think you're getting over it, and then you remember all over again.

You just have to get through it.

What's wrong?

It's okay, Mel.

Please don't cry.

Let's leave her alone, okay, Mel?

Do you want to come help me with Bray?

I've got to get the toolbox.

We're going to make a booby trap.

Well, then you better get a move on.

She'll be all right, won't she?

Yeah, of course. Go on.

I'd better go.

Where's Clay?

This idea hadn't seen enough of all the crazies in the city.

No one crazy in particular.

Not exactly state -of -the -art technology, is she? What do you mean?

wrong with the old girl?

It's more like what's right with her.

You can start by changing that appalling excuse for Stoudemire.

Take your own next time.

What happened?

Well, either the god of chaos just checked back into the city, accompanied

lights, lasers, and the dimming of the sun, or the dare -gullible citizens of

Toy Town have been duped once again.

Depends which version you want to believe.

I'll tell you one thing. I wouldn't want to be on the streets right now.

Or tonight, for that matter.

You have to wear a size 20 boots all of the time?

What?

Don't worry about Mad Mac.

A man the same as me can take care of himself.

Yeah, I'm gonna get some food.

Well, why'd you do that back there?

What?

That crowd, they almost had me.

You could have let them.

And let them have all the fun?

Told you, Ram.

You're mine.

And I choose the time.

Slade seemed pretty eager for me to get you back here in one piece. Why is that?

What have you got going with him, Ram?

Maybe I'll tell you, Lex.

Only, I choose the time.

Nice.

Well,

girl,

he's supposed to be over at the West Gate.

Oh, it's okay. Sammy's there. He doesn't need me as well.

Look, girl, just get back to your poetry. I can see more from there

But... Knowing parts, what if Jay asked me where you are?

He's back?

Yes.

You're coming over later, Jack?

Me and Sammy, we might have missed something.

Yeah.

See you later then.

Okay.

Find more going on the inside of the head of a raggy doll.

She's just got a shine for you.

For me, gal?

Yeah. No need to be so surprised.

What do I, actually?

Well, you're not going to handle that.

Well, then why don't you?

Tea round.

Do you want some?

Thanks.

I heard it's just bedlam out there.

Yeah. If only there was a way of showing people they're being fooled.

You still think that?

Of course.

It's Ram.

Remember, Jane was telling us a rumor about how he's been seen in the city?

The whole thing has got his hallmark.

Plus, that dude on the roof wasn't him. It was his double.

Damn, finally there was a way of finding out who he was.

Why don't we try to?

What do you mean?

Well, that's what we used to do, isn't it?

Investigate things together.

Why don't we work on this?

All right, together?

Yeah, you bet.

Okay, then. Yeah, I'll see you back in action, eh?

Jack, me and Trudy will take over for a while, okay?

Okay.

Like the end of the world.

What? Out there.

You okay?

Sure. And you?

All I could do with a cuddle.

You know, it's funny. I was just starting to feel...

What?

Nothing. It doesn't matter.

What's on your mind?

Do you think the end justifies the means?

Whoa, deepest thoughts.

Well, what's the end?

To put a thought to all this?

And the means?

Don't worry.

How's Amber?

Oh, I haven't looked.

I'd better go check then.

Yeah, of course.

You really don't get this game, do you, Lex?

I was thinking.

Oh, you mean you actually think as well.

Again? I'm going to bed. I can only take so much candy from a baby.

Good night.

Want me to read you a bedtime story?

Oh, you read too?

I thought the problem was Slade, but... Okay.

You were right.

Yeah? About what?

Mega.

I don't know what his game is.

Did you see Ebony?

Yeah, of course. Well, was she like the Ebony that you know?

Uh, I don't know. It was kind of hard to tell. She was quite out of it.

Why?

Well, you need control finger.

What? You can't control Ebony.

I could.

With the right technology, of course.

I could get right inside her brain and re -engineer it.

Mega's got that technology, Lex.

Well, if he is, he's riding a wild horse.

Ooh. You know, maybe he doesn't have to ride her for long.

You see, Mega wouldn't tolerate society with her in charge.

Therefore, there has to be a short -term plan.

That's using her.

For what? I don't know.

But I, uh...

No, Mega.

If he got control of this city, he would run it like one of his computer

programs. What do you mean? Like you.

Oh, no, no, no, Lexi boy.

I gave the city entertainment.

In Mega's world, it would be dark, bloodless, efficient, lifeless

even. No.

Not one of these can get hooched with the three wild sisters.

My guess is...

Programmed for deletion.

Along with your friends.

Are you serious?

Maybe. Maybe not. There is one thing for certain, though, Lex.

What? You and me have a common enemy.

Don't we?

Amber, what is it?

That they try to investigate.

Don't worry about it. You don't understand.

Jack and Ellie, they're good at this stuff.

Really good.

I promise you, they won't find Daryl. It's not a problem.

Is that it?

Yes. Then you better get back before anyone notices.

You said that this would be over soon.

You said that I would have my reward.

You will.

When?

Just a little longer, May.

When the plan is complete and order has been restored.

Come here.

Feels like I, uh...

Got your back?

You have.

I know, but maybe you were, you know, better off.

What do you mean?

Well, you know, having no memory of all of this.

Mouse, what are you doing up?

I couldn't sleep.

Can I come in there?

Yeah, come on then.

There we go.

One big family.

Tucked up tight.

Jack?

Yeah, Matt?

Why don't we all just leave?

Well, we can't. It's our home.

Jack, it's Amber. Something's wrong.

Okay, I'm coming.

Be warned, the unbelievers will try to trick you.

What are you doing?

I'm trying to walk, but I'm so dizzy.

Come on, back to bed.

What's wrong with her?

I don't know.

Maybe the pressure's burnt off the inside of your skull or something.

It's all right. I can manage. I'm not a cripple.

But... Please.

All right. The pain's not so bad now. Just go.

She needs watching, Jay.

So who do you suggest?

Me? Trudy? What I'm just saying.

Hey, it's okay, guys. I'll look in on her. I don't care what she says.

Oh. Well, I'll get back to my watch then.

Jack. I'm heading out tomorrow to meet Megha. Early.

You want to come?

Yeah, sure.

Have you decided what you're going to do?

The only thing I can do.

Hey.

You okay?

What is it?

What's wrong?

Zoot came to me again last night.

You had a dream.

It's not surprising.

No! He was here with me! Come on, sis.

We saw what we saw.

The guy with the fake and mega wasted him. Yes!

Because he wasn't Zoot. Zoot cannot die!

But you know now.

This whole Zoot thing is a rip -off. You're being tricked.

What he warned me about.

Unbelievers that would try to trick me by making me change my mind.

What? Get away from me. Ebony, please.

I said get away.

I don't want you anywhere near me.

So what's the plan, Jay? We seal off this sector of the city using all the

technology we have.

And then?

We cut off all supplies of electricity, food, water, everything to the rest.

What?

It's the only way, Jack. But there are innocent people out there. Yeah, I know

that. But I don't think we'll have to keep it up for too long.

Look, we'll be able to recruit the tribal leaders. They don't want this

any more than we do.

Besides, once we deprive them of what they want, I think people will start

seeing sense.

Okay, if that's what you want.

And can I suggest you make an announcement over CityNet?

No one watches CityNet anymore, you know, so it has all the airtime now.

You realize we'll have to use force.

Weapons, troops.

Effectively, we'll be imposing martial law.

Whatever it takes.
