[tires screech]

[woman on PA]
Security detail to the lobby.

[man]
Atten-hut!

[woman on PA]
Colonel Logan to Level Four.

Let's begin.

[clears throat]
Thank you, sir.

I believe we all have updated
meteorological reports.

Dark Rain is now falling
on every continent.

We estimate that
the teradoxyn exposure

in the human population is
between 95 and 97%.

My God.

In the, um,
Middle Eastern regions

where teradoxyn contamination
was first detected,

the birth rate of viables
has already fallen
to near zero.

Viables?

The, uh, the few births
that have occurred
in the affected areas

have been mutations, sir.

Um, genetically damaged,
not considered to be viable.

So, you're telling me that
the whole damn human race
is becoming sterile?

Is that correct?

We should reach
zero population growth
in a matter of months.

How could it have spread?

I alerted this committee
to the possibility of this
18 months ago.

The administration is
well aware of your theory.

With respect, sit,
it is not a theory.
It's a fact.

The unreported exchange
of chemical weapons
in the Middle East

was far worse
than the Gulf War.

The chemicals used
by both sides were designed
to become inert

in a matter of hours
and degrade
in the atmosphere.

But instead they combined
to become a new chemical

and start a chain reaction.

With all due respect, Doctor,
the data supporting
your theory is inconclusive.

There's probably
traces of teradoxyn

in that glass of water
you just poured, Doctor.

And you know it.

Who or what is responsible
is not at issue here.

The people deserve to know that
we brought this on ourselves.

What the people deserve,
Dr. Golding,

are solutions, not speculation.

If we share what we know
with the scientific community--

The political fallout
that would happen

if it was perceived
that we caused this...

We did cause this.

You will reveal nothing.

Not to anyone
in any way, shape, or form.

You're asking me
to fight this plague

with one arm
tied behind my back.

I'm advising you
of your operational parameters.

-That's the old way of working.
-Revelation of your theory
will be considered treasonous

by this administration.

Oh, well, then.

I resign as head of this--

I accept.

Effective immediately.

Dr. Royce...

I have the President's
authorization to make you

Chair of
the Reproductive Board

with all the powers necessary
to enforce your policy.

I don't have to remind you
what's at stake.

[Dr. Royce]
We'll find a cure, sir.

[man]
You have no choice.

[Control Voice]
There is nothing wrong
with your television.

Do not attempt to adjust
the picture.

We are now controlling
the transmission.

We control the horizontal
and the vertical.

We can deluge you
with a thousand channels

or expand one single image
to crystal clarity

and beyond.

We can shape your vision

to anything our imagination
can conceive.

For the next hour,

we will control
all that you see and hear.

You are about to experience
the awe and mystery

which reaches from
the deepest inner mind

to The Outer Limits.

Every child born

is linked in a chain
to generations past and future.

But what happens
when that chain is snapped?

[bell ringing]

[children chattering]

Okay, settle down.

I know it's the last day
and I know I promised not
to keep you here for long,

but I just wanted to remind you

that you all have to register
at the Reproductive Board.

[children complaining]

[boy]
This sucks.

You know, you've all been told

since you were little babies
just how special you are.

We're the last kids.

That's right.

And that's
a big responsibility,
I know,

but the reason
the Reproductive Board needs
you to register is so that--

We know.

Okay, Joe.

You know
the practical reasons.

You've seen the videos and
listened to the board members.

It's important to be tested
for your fertility rating

and to become sexually active
as soon as possible

with someone
in your same grouping.

But we never really
talked about other reasons
it's important,

and, um, since it's
my last day with you--

What other reasons?

Well, for example, the ones
that are important to me.

I became a teacher
because I love children.

In fact, I'd just become
a teacher around the time

the Dark Rain
started falling, so--

So now you're
out of a job, aren't you?

-[shushing]
-Hey, that's what my dad said.

Your father's right.

But so are
a lot of other people,

so I'm gonna have
a lot of company,

and I don't just
mean teachers.

[sighs]
Without children being born,
the economies of the world

aren't able to plan jobs
for the future...

Well, you'll learn more
about that next year.

I still hope the time will come
when being a mother will be...

[exhales]

The most important job
in the world.

Okay.

Well, I promised your parents
I'd just be handing out
report cards, so...

-[children groaning]
-They're probably
waiting outside.

What?

Don't worry,
you've all done really well.

I'm very, very proud of you.

So this is, um...
This is goodbye.

I'll miss you all very much.

Goodbye, Mrs. McAllister.

[girl 1]
Bye, Mrs. McAllister.

[girl 2]
We'll miss you.

[indistinct chattering]

[man on TV]
Another NWA hideout in the city

was destroyed
by Federal authorities
in a surprise raid today.

Such hideouts around
the country have long been
suspected by the government

to be covert staging areas
for terrorist activity.

[machine gun firing]

The New World Army spokesperson
denied any wrongdoing.

Most of us have
no place to go.

We're not terrorists,
for God's sake,
we just want to die in peace.

We want our freedom.

What is wrong
with those people?

The NWA?

They blame
the government
for the disaster.

Yeah, but why terrorism?
It doesn't make sense.

[sighs]
We're supposed
to be celebrating

the first day
of summer vacation.

You're right.

-I am so sorry.
-[laughing]

What was I thinking?

[giggling]

[both moan]

Did you talk to your friend?

Yeah.

There was a big bust
on the north shore,

so the street price
has gone up, but...

You know, we don't
really need to use this.

I mean, the odds of you
getting pregnant--

Are about a million to one.
I know.

But just the thought
of conceiving a mutation--

It's all right.

It's all right.

I don't mind.

Uh-oh.

Look at the expiration date
on this one.

It's now or never.

[laughs]

I love you.

I love you too.

[gagging]

Sherry?

[retching]

Sherry, what's wrong?

Sherry, what is it, baby?

[toilet flushing]

What's wrong, honey?

Oh, Tim...
Oh, I'm scared.

Okay.

[sobbing]

[siren wailing]

[indistinct announcement on PA]

Go in now?

[indistinct announcement on PA]

-Hi.
-Hi.

-Did you fill out
the paperwork?
-Yeah.

-Do you feel any better?
-I threw up again.
That made me feel a lot better.

-Did they give you anything?
-So far, they've just taken
fluids out of me.

They haven't put any back.
I'm dying of thirst.

Tim.

Hi, I'm Marisa Golding.

-Doctor.
-You're Sherry, aren't you?

I'm pregnant, aren't I?

That's what you're gonna say.

Look, I know you're frightened.

Look, I can't do it. I can't.
I've seen those babies
look like...

They're horribly
deformed mutants.

They just suffer--

None of the warning markers
have shown up in
any of your samples.

But I am, aren't I?
I'm going to have a baby.

Yes... Yes, you are.

I don't understand this.
We were using birth con...

It's all right, Mr. McAllister.

I'm not a supporter
of the new reproductive laws.
Quiet the opposite.

I can't do this.

I won't do this.

Listen, a hospital staff member
called me here

because your blood and urine
show none of
the warning markers

of teradoxyn-related
antibodies.

That's extremely rare.

What's that mean?

It means that your wife
may be carrying
a perfectly healthy child.

Oh, "may be."

Please, Doctor,
that hasn't happened anywhere
on the planet in ten years,

so spare me the hope speech.

You're wrong, Sherry.

I've given it too many times
to the kids I used to teach

and I knew
I was lying then.

Government policy is to force
all pregnancies to term

no matter what they find,
am I right?

-I'll be with you
the whole time, honey.
-Tim!

This is what
I was afraid of.

This was my worst nightmare.

Sherry, I am not
with the government.

[knocking]

What room?

Did you tell anybody else here
that you thought
you might be pregnant?

-No.
-I did.

At the front desk. I said
it looked like she had
morning sickness. But I--

-You shouldn't have done that.
-Why? What's wrong?

I have to leave.

Cooperate with them
as much as possible.

We'll be in contact again.

Wait, cooperate with who?

-I don't like this.
-No, me neither.

-Tim, I'm not staying.
-You can't. You know you can't.
It's the law!

Please don't be alarmed,
Mr. and Mrs. McAllister.

These men are only here
for your protection.

There's been a great deal
of NWA activity
around the hospital.

And I don't want you
or your baby
to come to any harm.

What do you want?

Hmm.

I am Dr. Clayton Royce.

I chair the Federal
Reproductive Board.

And all that I want
is to give you
and your unborn child

the very best of medical care
that this country has to offer.

I understand that
you're a schoolteacher,
Ms. McAllister.

Used to be.
I just taught my last class.

[sighs]
Your last class.

It's more than tragic,

but you can help to change it.

What's this?

It's just a nutritional
supplement for the child.

Why am I so sleepy?

Ah-ha. You caught me.

It's a supplement
and a mild sedative,

just to help you relax
on our way to the facility.

I know that
you must be scared stiff
of having this child.

And with good reason,
I think.

I won't deny it.

Of the relatively small
number of births

that have occurred
over the last decade,

not one has been
viable... Anywhere.

But isn't the survival
of the human species
reason enough to try?

-Oh, God, Tim.
-Yours could be
the one, Sherry.

Something you say
to every mother?

Do you think that, as head
of arguably the most important
branch of the government,

I rush to the location
of every confirmed pregnancy?

In the US alone, there are
still hundreds every year,
thousands worldwide.

None successful.

-So, I'm special.
-Yes, you are.

Watch your step now. Easy now.

That's it. I'll lead the way.

[man] He's on the way up.

[female voice]
Sergeant Waters
to Conference Room 210.

There have been so many attacks
on Federal buildings

we've had to take
extra precaution.

NWA?

They're getting
more and more daring.

But I can assure you,
you will be safe here.

Yvette will show you
to your rooms.

I should get back to our place
and pick up some of our things,

-if we're going to
be here overnight.
-It's all being taken care of.

Is there anything special
that you would like
our people to pick up for you?

I still have to go to work.

I can do all that myself.

You are 50% of this puzzle,
Mr. McAllister.

We will be requiring
that you stay with us as well

during the duration
of the pregnancy.

No way, I need that job.
I can't just--

You'll be more than
fairly compensated.

In fact, if Sherry
is carrying a healthy child,

you'll never have
to work again.

You're gonna pay us?

You could say
you've won the lottery.

I'll see you both
when you've had a chance
to settle in.

Welcome, Mrs. McAllister,
Mr. McAllister,
and congratulations.

Our staff will be
at your disposal
24 hours a day.

We'll do everything we can
to make certain that

your stay with us
is a pleasant one.

Just along here.

The fatigue you're experiencing
doesn't last for
the entire pregnancy.

Who's she?

I'm sorry, we're not at liberty
to discuss other patients.

There are other women here?

Dr. Royce will be happy
to answer all your questions
when he meets with you later.

I hope you
find this comfortable.

Wow. How much is it a night?

You have a busy day
ahead of you.

Dr. Royce has ordered
a number of tests,

so I suggest you get
a good night's sleep.

Sherry, this could be
your dream.

You've wanted this
all your life.
We both have.

Not this.

What if he's right?
You could be the one.

It's not going to
happen, Tim. Not to me.

Why not to you?

It had to happen
to somebody, eventually.

I can't imagine
a better mother.

What if they're wrong?

[indistinct chatter]

[indistinct chatter]

I'm happy to say
the results all look
very promising.

What's wrong?
Is it the tests?

[sobbing]

-It's not just the tests.
-Tim, I want to go home.

We can't, love.

Look, they said your emotions
would be all over the place.

Oh, God! Don't blame
my hormones for this.

We're prisoners, Tim.

You just don't see it
because they're offering money.

That's not fair.

They have poked
and prodded me too.

Just have to tell Royce
he's pushing too hard.

Oh, I'll tell him myself.

Sherry.

Sherry!

[woman crying]

Oh. I'm sorry,
I didn't mean
to startle you, um...

I'm Sherry,
I'm just down the hall.

Just leave me alone,
all right?

I just thought, you know,
we're both in
the same situation--

No, we're not!

I hear them
whispering about you.

They say you're the one.

Excuse me?

They say you're carrying
the good child,

The perfect child.

I don't know if that's true.

They said that
about me at first.

But pretty soon
they stopped.

They stopped saying
anything at all.

They'll make you go through
with it, you know,

No matter what they find out
in a month or two months.

They won't
tell you anything.

But you'll know!

[screaming]

I'm going to call...
I'm going to call someone.

Hello!
Help, somebody!

I don't want to go
through with this.

God, please don't make me
go through with it!

Somebody!

Help!

McAllister, go back
to your room, now!

[screaming]

It looks like
her water just broke.

If this one's like
the last three, she's probably
already fully dilated.

No time to take her
to the delivery room.

We'll just deliver it
right here. It'll all be
over in a minute.

Please, don't let me see it!
I don't...
I don't want to see it!

[nurse]
Sweetheart, breathe, breathe.

[screaming]
Please don't let me see it!

Don't show me.
I don't want to see it!

Sweetheart...
Let me give her
something for the pain.

No point.
It's in too big a hurry
to be born.

The anesthetic won't have time
to take effect.

Start pushing it.

You're going to hell for this,
I swear to God!

Now push.

Push, push, push!

That's good.

You're doing great,
you're doing great.

Come on,
one more push.

-Push. Push harder.
-[crying] I can't.

-Almost there, sweetheart.
-I don't care. I can't.

-Yes, you can. Push!
-Push! Push! Push!

I hate you!

-Scissors.
-Give me a towel. Towel!

[baby crying]

[crying stops]

[groaning]

[screaming]

Damn!

[Dr. Royce]
Who the hell
let her in here?

[gasping]

-What happened?
-Shh, you're okay now.

Oh, God, Tim, it was horrible.

I know.
Try not to think about it.

I won't bring something
like that into the world.

[door opens]

You should not
have had to see that.

I'm sorry.

Who are you?

This is Grant, hon.
He brought you back here
after you fainted.

He told me what happened.
I tried to find you.

I want to end this pregnancy.

Well, we can't do that.

In time, you'll understand.

Who in the hell are you
to tell me what I can
or can't do with my own body?

A friend.

[scoffs]

Sherry, what are you
doing, baby?
Come back to bed.

-I'm leaving.
-What?

It's tonight, Tim.
I'm not going
through that.

Sherry. Sherry, Roy said
that won't happen to our baby.

And would you know
if he was lying?

Would you lie
if you were in his place?

Sherry, I won't have
a job to go back to.

Our apartment
isn't ours anymore.

We don't have any money.
Where do we go?

Anywhere, Tim.
It doesn't matter.

If you still think
you won the lottery,
you can stay.

No!

If it's what you want,
then that's what we'll do.

Thank you.

I know there are still places
we can get an abortion.

We have to find
a way out of here first.

[door closing]

[guns cocking]

[door closing]

There is no way out.

There are cameras,
silent alarms
in all the patients' rooms.

You're far, far too important
for us to just let you
stroll out of this facility.

Tim, we're going
to die here.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

In the first few years,

we did lose both mother
and child in childbirth

nearly 30% of the time.

So much to learn,
but not anymore.

You can leave, thank you.

We want to leave too.

If you did that,

if you terminated
this pregnancy,

you would be
committing not just a crime,

you'd be condemning humankind.

That's a lie!

I swear to you,
I'm telling you the truth.

The woman I saw
give birth to that... thing,

you told her the same thing
that you're telling me.

I told her the truth.

She lacked some of
the warning markers at first.

Signs of mutation
showed up too late

for me to terminate
the pregnancy.

And even then,
there was a chance.

A chance?

How could you make her
go through that?

Because I am running
out of time, Mrs. McAllister.

Because, ten years ago,

The President
of the United States

asked that I find an answer

to the worst disaster
ever to befall humanity,

and I have found... Nothing.

Until I found you today.

As of this moment, the child
inside your womb is perfect.

And I am convinced
that it will be born perfect.

I will share with you
everything that I
know about it.

And it'll be my child?

Of course it will,
always.

We'll stay on one condition.

If you find any warning signs
that the baby isn't--

I will authorize
termination of the pregnancy.

You can do that?

I'm the only man
in the country who can.
And I will.

I give you my word.

That's how confident I am
that it won't be necessary.

And if we don't
believe you?

Well, I'm sorry, Sherry,
but we all ran out of options
a long time ago.

One child is not enough
to save the human race,

but you're the first
ray of hope that
we've had in ten years.

And I won't give you up.

Please.

Honey?

[ddor shuts]

[Sherry panting rapidly]

[nurse] Squeeze my hand.

[man] The baby's
heart rate is...

[screaming]

[Tim]
Keep breathing, honey.

[Dr. Royce]
Push!

Come on, honey!
You can do it.

[nurse]
Come on, Mrs. McAllister.
Squeeze my hand.

[screaming]

Good.

Keep breathing.

-It's coming!
-Come on, honey!
You can do it.

Push!

Now stop pushing. Stop! Stop!

That's it. Good.

[baby crying]

It's a boy.

It's a perfect,
perfect baby boy.

[man]
It's perfect!

[chhering]

[woman]
Success! We have a baby!

Congratulations.

Thank you.

[baby crying]

I want to hold him.
Can I hold him?

Wait a minute.
Where are you taking him?

Dr. Royce!

Please understand.
We can't risk the possibility

that she might
expose him to teradoxyn.

He may not have
inherited her immunity.

That is our baby!

[grunts]

Tim! Tim!

What are they doing?
What are they doing?

What are they doing?

-[man] You'll be okay.
-Tim!

Please calm down.

Tim, are you okay?

Yeah. I think
they gave me something.

Oh, come here.

Where's our baby?

I'm very sorry that,
that had to happen,
Mr. McAllister.

I was hoping that by now
we had your trust.

Trust? You take our child away
and you talk to me about trust?

-We want to see him.
-And you will.

But I want to share
with you the good news.

We've found no evidence

Of physical defect
or deformity,

and he seems to have retained

his mother's immunity.

He's a beautiful, healthy boy.

He has your eyes, Tim.

We need to see that
for ourselves.

Indeed. But there are
some things that

we have to discuss.

Your child is the first

fully normal birth
since the disaster,

which makes him very special.

And it makes you special.

-Both of you.
-What?

By some miracle, you have
produced a perfect child.

Which means, of course,
that you can do it again,

hopefully several times.

And in the future,

perhaps even with
other partners.

[scoffs]

You're saying
that we can't leave.

Well, I assume that you do
want to be near the baby.

And you can certainly
understand why
he has to remain.

He is our child!

-You don't decide!
-Oh, yes, I do.

I make all the decisions
regarding the child.

Let's get that
out of the way right now.

[guns cocking]

I would like to see my baby.

Please.

Of course.

You will,
for regular feedings...

When it's time.

Tim. Tim!

Wake up.

Morning, folks.

-What do you want?
-What are you doing here?

I'm with the NWA.

You want to be free?

What are you talking about?

Don't worry about the cameras.
We have people on security.

You want to be prisoners
for the rest of your life
or do you want freedom?

With our baby.

That's the idea.

-We want out.
-Well, then get dressed.

I gotta get you outta here
before Dr. Royce comes
to show off the baby.

[babies crying]

This is the nursery
for the mutations
that survived past childbirth.

[babies crying]

Oh, my God.

Come on.

Tim, this is horrible.

[baby crying]

[Tim] Oh, my God.

Is that our baby?

Oh, Tim.

[beeping]

[terminal beeps]

They've changed the code.

[door opening]

-Let me.
-[beeping]

Go! Go!
I'll take care of security.

[baby cooing]

Shh, Mama's got you now.

Okay.

Okay, let's go.

Go! Go!

[Tim] What now?

We lost two patients in
the high-risk wing yesterday.

They were scheduled
to go out right now.

-You'll be going out instead.
-In a coffin? No, no.

Look, you will not be inside
longer than an hour.
And the baby can ride with you.

Tell him I'm not taking
the baby in a coffin.

Come on. You passed
the point of no return
five minutes ago.

People, let's go.

Honey, this is our only chance.

Come on.

-What about you?
-I'm coming with you.

Get in. Come on.

-Let's go. Let's go. Let's go.
-Okay.

Oh, honey.

Tim, you take
that coffin over there.

[Sherry shushing]

[muffled crying]

Calm. Calm.

[grunts]

[baby crying]

[man] Let's go.

Let me help you.

Hello, Senator.
Isn't it wonderful news?

-Fantastic.
-Welcome.

[indistinct chatter]

Mr. and Mrs. McAllister?

[groans]

-You all right?
-Yeah.

He slept the whole time.

You may have to get back
inside these things if we
came up to any roadblocks.

Where are we going?

You don't need to know that.

I think we have
a right to know.

There's a lot of people risking
their ass to do this thing,
and we're not out of it yet.

Right now,
you don't know anything.
And it's gonna stay that way.

Anything's better
than that place, Tim.

Anything.

Let's go!

Let's go! Quickly!

Here, honey, take the baby.

-Okay, close it up.
-Move it out!

Let's go.

[Sherry]
How long has it been?

Five or six hours!

-We're gonna
run out of diapers!
-[baby crying]

Oh, oh, here.

You want to burp him?

Here, here.

Yeah.

Okay.

What do I do? Just this?

Yeah, yeah, nice and firm.
Just get the bubble up.

Only baby in the world,
and I don't know
what I'm doing.

You're gonna
have to carry the baby
from here on.

-Oh, God.
-Here, take this.

-It's a long hike.
You up for it?
-Yeah, yeah, I'll be okay.

-[indistinct chatter]
-[baby cooing]

[baby cooing]

We have to stop.
I can't go any farther.

That's all right.
You don't have to.
This is it.

[Tim] This is it?

Come on.
I'll show you to your quarters.

[bell ringing]

Watch your step.

[children yelling
and screaming]

[overlapping chatter]

You made it.

Oh, I'm so glad.

Hello.

[Sherry] Wh-- How?
All these children?

Yes, well, immunity is rare,
but it does happen.

And we certainly could use
another teacher.

I thought the NWA
was a bunch of--

[Grant] Terrorists?

A lot are ex-army.

And actions in that respect

are to distract the government
from our real work.

This is our real work.

We're building
a new society, Sherry

one that won't make
the same mistakes

as the one
that's dying right now.

I'm just sorry it took you
so long to get here.

-At the hospital--
-Yeah.

We tried to get there first.
Doesn't always happen.

So healthy kids are being born?

Yeah. Yes, they are.

There's a whole handful
of them out there.

But, unless they find
their way to us,

they'll never be free.

Entire lives will be wasted

trying to repopulate
an old world.

Could I, uh...
Could I hold him?

-Oh, yeah.
-Sure.

[Tim]
His name's Joey.

Joey?

Joey, is it?

Well, Joey,

The old regime's trying
to hang on,

but it won't last.

It's on its last legs.

Another 30 or 40 years,

they'll all be gone.

You and the rest
of these children

will inherit the Earth.

Can I see the new baby?

Yeah. Just for
a second, though.

We only have
a few more hours left
of outside time

before we have to go back
to the complex.

[baby cooing]

Hi, I'm Tessa.

-Hi, Tessa.
-Hi.

Are you the new teacher?

I guess I am.

[Control Voice]
Just as we inherited
the Earth of our forefathers,

we too will
bequeath this world,

so long as there are children
to claim the inheritance.
