You think he saw us?
I don't think so.

I do.

Even if they didn't,
they have infrared scanners.

Yeah, well, I don't think anyone saw us.

We slide out of here
in 45 minutes.

If we lie low, we should
be all right till then.

That's a long time to play
hide and seek with a Kromagg.

Hustle it up, Remmy.

Come on, move it.

What do you think
that place was?

Well,
it's gotta be military.

The Maggs don't go in
for leisure sport.

Could be a burned-out
storage depot.

Yeah, well, I didn't
see any other structures.

Well, it could be a
proving ground for weapons.

Or it could be a camp where they
train the Maggs to hunt humans.

Kind of like that
pleasant resort

we stumbled across
a couple of worlds back.

I don't think
anyone saw us.

Maybe we're
overreacting.

It is humanly impossible
to overreact to the Kromaggs.

All right,
this place looks pretty good.

Maggie and I'll take lookout.

You guys lay low. We're
out of here in 40 minutes.

The girl's in Sector 5 Red.

For a breeder
to escape.

And with
an infant, yet.

Commander, I assure you there's
no way this breeder will get away.

My men will pick her up
any minute now.

We're picking up other
indicators in the same sector.

What could that be? I had that sector
patrolled less than an hour ago.

You, go take a unit and find
out what's going on there.

Maggie,
someone's coming.

Kromaggs?

No.

Looks more
like a woman.

She's alone.

Don't be afraid, don't
be afraid. We're friends.

Don't touch him.

It's okay.
It's okay.

Mommy's right here.

Go back to sleep.

Who are you?

Where'd you come from?

I'm Quinn Mallory, and where we
came from is kind of a long story.

Quinn Mallory?

Yeah, that's right.

Then you're Maggie.

How do you know
who we are?

I'm Christina Griffin.

Wade told me
all about you guys.

Wade?

Yeah, your friend Wade.
Wade Wells.

So you know Wade?
Where is she?

I don't know.

We gotta get moving.

They gotta know by now
we've escaped.

Escaped from what?

A Kromagg breeder camp.

What if you found a
portal to a parallel universe?

What if you could slide into
a thousand different worlds

where it's the same year
and you're the same person,

but everything else
is different?

And what if you can't
find your way home?

Where were
you going to go?

I don't know. I just
had to get out of there.

Once I was outside, I
hoped to find someplace.

But you're here now.

It's just like Wade said.
You'd find a way to get to us.

Can I go with you guys
when you... What is that?

Slide.

Of course you can.

Guys,
this is Christina.

She just escaped from
the Kromagg breeder camp,

somewhere down there.

This is my brother Colin,
and this is Rem... I know.

It's Rembrandt.

She knew Wade.

Knew?

I mean, is she alive?
Is she there?

Yeah, she's alive.
As far as I know.

Hey, if Wade is back there,
we gotta do something.

I don't know
if we have enough time.

Look, I don't care, man.
We gotta get back there!

It's too late.
She's gone.

The Magg shipped all the
other prisoners out yesterday

to make way
for the new arrivals.

Wade was with them.

I managed to get away
in all the confusion.

For what it's worth, Wade doesn't
think that you deserted her.

And she doesn't blame you at
all for what happened to her.

I'm picking up a slight
reading on that hill.

Several indicators.

Several indicators?

Who is out there
besides your runaway?

All right, we're gonna go take lookout.

Well, it looks like a
perfectly normal baby to me.

Yeah, well, they do
for the first year.

I don't know a lot about it.
It's some kind of genetic quirk.

The gestation and
birth are normal.

The Kromagg genes
are repressed.

It'll grow up ugly,
trust me.

Wouldn't you know it.

We land in a world
crawling with Kromaggs,

no guns, and
now we got a baby.

And I was
thinking about getting a dog.

You hear something?

It's coming from
over there.

All right, guys,
stay hidden.

We're gonna go check out
what this is.

Oh, there we go.

We're keeping steady,
you and me.

We're in this together.

It's okay. He seems to
be in pretty good shape.

Yeah,
he's a fighter.

How old is he?
Almost eight months.

We made our break
just in time.

Humagg babies are taken away
from their mothers at nine months.

Then at a really young age, they
start their training to be soldiers.

We've run into a few
of them along the way.

Well, you seem
to have survived it.

It wasn't easy.

Hello.

You know, at first, I
couldn't stand to look at him.

Half of him came from
something I hated so much.

But he's so beautiful,
and he's smart.

Yeah. After all, what happened
to me wasn't his fault.

We're gonna get
out of this, little guy.

You just wait and see.

What's his name?

Well, you're going to think
this is really strange,

but he doesn't have one.

I haven't been able to
think of the right one.

Surviving from day to day
in that place,

I had to think of
nothing else.

You've got plenty of time.

The right one
will come to you.

You can always
name him Maggie.

Yeah.

Okay, let's go, huh?

Two Maggs in a Humvee.

I knew it.
Infrared scanners.

This is the part where you
usually come up with a great idea.

Wait, me? Why do I always have
to come up with a good idea?

Hey, guys,

wait.

They're looking for
a woman, right?

Maybe we should
give them one.

All right, Magg.

Well, that should
buy us some time.

I don't know. There's gotta be
more goons out there like these.

How long till the slide?

Eighteen minutes.

Where will we go?

We don't know.
I'll take point.

There's a little glitch
in our gizmo.

Could we go to my home world?

If we knew
your home coordinates.

They'd be in
the Kromagg Central Data Bank.

Okay, uh,
you've got a choice now.

You can either
work with us or die.

Question too difficult
for you, Magg?

I'll help.

Smart choice.

Can you work it?

If I can get into the system.
I'm sure there's a password.

Here, come here.

Log us on.

Unit Four, report.

Unit Four,
what's happening out there?

All right, uh, tell him you're enjoying
the weather and having a fine day.

Unit Four.

What's going on?

Uh, sorry, sir.
False alarm.

No sign of the prisoner.

You said you had a pattern.

Several indicators, you said.

It must have been wildlife.

No sign of a human out here.

Resume the search pattern,
and keep me posted.

Base out.

You do very good work.

Now open up your system and
bring up the prisoners' files.

No tricks.
I read your language.

Go on, Maggot.

What are we looking for?

Bring up anything on
prisoners Christina Griffin

and Wade Wells.

I'll need
their prisoner serials.

Their what?
ID numbers.

We don't keep their human names on file.

I don't know Wade's,
but mine's JK1125.

Now cross-reference that
with her home world.

What is it?

That's interesting.

So, when do you think
that happened?

The file states that our
battalions withdrew six months ago.

Withdrew?

Yeah, yeah,
that's what it says.

My parents,
they could be alive.

All right, let me get
those coordinates.

Units Two and Three,
widen your search area.

Unit Six,
return to the river.

If she went that way,
she may have gotten across.

All right, got it.
Now for Wade.

But without her ID number...

All right,
we'll do it the hard way.

Pull up the records
as fast as you can.

When we see her picture,
we'll tell you to stop.

What's going on?

Unit Four is accessing
prisoner files.

Why?

Unit Four, this is base!

What are you doing?
Those files are protected!

All right,
what do we do?

We keep running through
these files.

We only got
eight minutes left.

The only conclusion
I can draw, Subcommander,

is that a woman and a baby have
overpowered two of your best men,

and are now casually scanning
our protected data.

We had several different
IR readings.

Somebody's out there.
Somebody's helping her!

What's the matter?

"Network error 807. Please
notify system administrator. "

Try it again.

All units, Unit Four
has been disabled.

Coordinates
9774 by 39.

All units converge.

I hope you're not outgunned
out there, Sub-Commander.

I don't like this.

They could be tracking us now.
I mean, sending in other units.

Right.

All right,
Colin, Maggie!

We're getting
out of here.

Thanks for all your help.
See you!

You read Kromagg?

He bought it.

Back up, back up!

Hang on.

Shouldn't we get out
to hit the vortex?

We're just gonna have to take
the chance that the vortex

can handle all the mass.

I'll count it off.

Ten seconds.

Get ready.

Anybody hurt?

We're all right.

Look, we don't know
who's here yet

or what their intentions
might be.

All right, so leave
the rifle in the car.

We got nine hours.

This the right place?

This look like your world?

Yeah.
I think so.

Christina, I think you better
keep the baby well-covered.

Are you certain it was
a trans-dimensional vortex?

Yes, sir.

A court martial will be
convened to review this case.

All amenities
will be observed.

You'll have representation,
a fair, unbiased hearing,

then full military execution.

It'll be very nice.

Four humans.

Three male, one female.

They took the weapons
off Unit Four,

accessed the computer,

and then with their primitive
sliding device escaped

to another dimension.

We received a Dynasty
Directive about these humans

earlier this year.

We were ordered not
to detain them,

but now things have changed.

They are now considered
to be extremely dangerous,

and are to be taken down
by whatever means necessary.

Something your troops
are obviously not up to.

It is clear that
they transported themselves

back to
the escapee's home world.

With your permission, I'll take
a commando unit to that world,

recapture the breeder, and deal with
the sliders, per Dynasty Directive.

Permission denied.

No Kromagg is permitted to return
to that world under pain of death.

I know that, sir, but,

under the circumstances, I
thought we might find a solution

to the bigger problem,
as well.

I don't have the authority to
override a Dynasty Directive.

You're not to pursue anyone
to that world.

Is that understood?

Yes, sir.

Bye.

Last time I saw this street,
we were running.

Hundreds of us, from the
Kromagg invasion force.

Their ships
fired on us.

My two brothers died
right here.

Even those of us who fought
back were overpowered.

But the people in your
world won in the end.

Drove the Maggs away.

Folks don't seem to be
too friendly, though.

Kromaggs make enemies
faster than anybody.

Yeah, but we're
not Kromaggs.

But we are strangers, and they're
not going to take any chances.

We're not here
that long.

I'm just glad we were able to get
Christina and her baby off that world.

It's funny
they didn't pursue us.

I mean, they know
the coordinates.

Yeah, well,
stay sharp.

The show's not over
till the fat Magg croaks.

Something here
must really scare them.

Something to scare a Kromagg.
Now, that I'd like to see.

So many nights
I'd have dreams,

walking up to it
just like this.

Then I'd wake up
in the barracks.

I never thought
I'd see it again.

Let me hold him?

You don't want to give them
two surprises at once, right?

Hello.

Yes!

Dad?

Christina?
Oh, my God!

God, I don't
believe it.

I don't believe it.

How... How did you?
Where's Mom?

Your Mom's gone.

Caught in the war.

No.

I thought they'd taken you
all away from me forever.

Her heart would be
so full at this moment.

Where have you been?

Where have you been
all this time?

I was a prisoner.

A Kromagg camp
on another world.

Come here.

These are the wonderful people
that helped me escape.

Quinn, Colin, Rembrandt,
Maggie, this is Jonathan Griffin.

This is my dad.

I don't understand.

You said you were
on another world?

How did you get here?

These people
are sliders, Dad.

No, only Kromaggs
can do that.

We can, too.

I invented this device that
was supposed to be a, uh,

anti-gravity machine,

but it turned out to be
something else.

We've traveled from world to
world for quite some time now.

We fought the Kromaggs
on many worlds.

Dad, these people are
friends, I promise you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you for my daughter.

And who's this
little one there?

Come on, baby.

We're home now.

Christina.

The camp.

It was a breeder camp?

Those who put up too much
of a fight or who couldn't conceive

were taken away.

Killed, I suppose.

You're saying there was
nothing you could do?

Mr. Griffin,

I can tell you from
personal experience,

there's no use
in trying to fight them

once you've been
taken to a camp.

There's no way
to resist them.

Your daughter did what
she had to do to survive.

I suppose I have to accept
that you were forced to do this.

But you were not forced to
keep it, to bring it here.

When you were able to escape,
why didn't you do it alone?

Because he's my child.

Can you send it back?

I don't know
the coordinates.

And even if we could,
we would never do that.

Believe me,
it would have been best.

For both of you.

That could have
gone better.

He wasn't really
primed for this.

Look on the bright side. At
least he didn't throw us out.

Not yet.

Maybe we should go.

Where would you go?

There was a great poet
on my world that once said,

"Home is a place where,
when you have to go there,

"they have to take you in. "

Remember what you said to me?

You said this little guy
is a fighter.

Well, his mommy is, too.

So don't you throw in the
towel just yet, you hear me?

Maybe we should go on
over to the Chandler.

No, you don't.

This is my home,
at least for now,

and I can have
all the guests I want.

Please, you guys.

For moral support?

Do you have
continental breakfast?

I don't want you to think that I'm
ungrateful for what you've done.

It's just that it's been...

Well, it's been
a bit of a shock.

We can understand that.

Yeah, these days, we seem
to spend an awful lot of time

being shocked about
one thing or another.

Tell me about it.

Kromaggs hit you
pretty hard?

A lot of places
got it worse.

Moscow, New York, Paris.

They're simply
not there anymore.

Listen, how did you manage
to drive the Kromaggs out?

I mean, from what I've seen, they
only leave when they're ready,

and that's usually only
after there's nothing left.

Our military developed
better tactics.

Better weapons.

What kind of weapons?

I work in
Central Intelligence.

The weapons that we used
are still classified.

The general public doesn't
know anything about them.

Hopefully they never will.

Well, we're just thinking
that the Kromaggs

are still ravaging
many other worlds.

This classified weapon
might help defeat

the Kromagg Dynasty
completely.

I'm afraid the other worlds
will have to do it on their own.

Wow, you're a hard man.

I had to be,
to save my world.

Come on, Remmy.

What you're feeling, this...

This hatred that you have
against the Kromaggs

for what they did to
you and yours...

I've been down that road.

Ate me alive.

Made me blind to the people in my life.

That is your daughter
in there.

She's been through hell.

And all she cared about
was coming home to you.

Now, try harder
to think about that.

Maybe don't even
think at all,

just...

Just feel something.

Wait a minute.

You think of yourselves
as her friends?

Well, we're just
getting to know her,

but I think we're headed that way, yeah.

She trusts us, if that's
what you're asking.

The next few hours are going
to be very difficult for her.

If you could stay around.

Help her through it.

You're not just saying it's going to
be hard on her coming home, are you?

No.

You're not thinking about doing
anything crazy, like turning her in?

No, of course not.

Nothing will happen to her.

She'll be fine.

I can't say any more
than that.

It's just that she'll need
something that I cannot give her.

Please,
if you could stay with her.

If you've got a secret, you might feel
a lot better getting it off your chest.

Good, he's quieting down.

He's been finicky lately.

Teething.

They seem to be
growing in human.

I'm glad.

Kromagg teeth can be
really brutal coming in.

Yeah, well, maybe that's
why they're so bad-tempered.

Oh, hello, hello.

You know,
when I was in the camps,

what kept me going was
thinking of my folks back here.

Christmas, Thanksgiving.

Just hanging around the
backyard doing nothing.

He's not a bad man.

Yeah, I know.
I can see that.

He's just been through
some really bad times.

If only you could see him
the way that I do.

Listen, I'm going to go
rustle us up some soup, okay?

Okay.
Okay, little guy?

Okay.

How's Christina?

She's hanging in there.

What's wrong?

You have that little crease
between your eyes you always get.

It's her father.

He said to stick by her.
Something was going to happen.

Like what?

I don't know.
He wouldn't say.

Colin and Remmy went
off to do some research.

Library, newspapers.

See what they could
about the Kromagg defeat.

Maybe it's nothing, but
everybody's so stressed out.

I got a bad feeling
about this.

I could really use a good
feeling right about now.

Like the one she gets
when she looks at him.

It seems like we're always
taking care of everybody else.

When's somebody going
to take care of us, huh?

I guess we've just
gotta do it all.

You ever think about
having a kid?

My husband and I used
to want one very much.

But we had careers,
and so we put it off.

We put it off
a little too long.

You had no way
of knowing.

Well, you know,
on some alternate world,

I've probably got 11 kids,
I'm barefoot,

living in a shack
on a mountain.

I'm sure you'd make a great mom.

For all 11.

Thanks, Quinn.

Maggie.

Maggie!

What's wrong?
I don't know.

He's not breathing right.

Oh, he's got a fever.

I gotta get him
to a doctor.

Can you take him
to anyone who you trust?

Who won't turn you
and the baby in?

I don't know.

Uh, Dr. Bailey.

He brought me into this world.
He's taken care of me all my life.

Let's go.

Forget about Bailey.

Get away from the door.

He won't be able to help you.

No one will.

And just why is that?

You know, you've been
waltzing around here.

Are you going to tell us
what this is about?

Daddy?

During the war,
our military research

developed a virus that
affected only Kromagg DNA.

Very efficient.
Extremely fast-acting.

100% mortality.

It permeates the atmosphere.
That is why the Kromaggs left.

The baby, being half-Kromagg,
is obviously susceptible.

You mean, he's dying and there's
nothing that we can do about it?

Well, there's gotta
be an antidote.

No. Being as it was designed
not to affect humans, there...

You knew about this,
and you didn't tell me?

Christina...

If you would like,
I could get something where...

He wouldn't feel it.

No.

I want my baby to live.

Do you understand me?

To live.

You know,
you are one sorry...

Who the hell are you?

Everyone be very still.

Don't touch him.

You keep away
from my baby.

Be calm, Christina.

He's my baby, too.

For God's sake, kill him!

Come on, nobody's going to shoot anyone.

Don't move, pal.

This is my son.

Your son?

You contribute some
genetic material

and you think
that makes you a father?

You breed children
like cattle.

How many more sons
do you have?

This virus is killing him.

As it was designed to do.

Well, is there an antidote?

A treatment of some kind?

Not for you.

What about for him?

He's your grandson.

So there is a vaccine.

Yes.

The virus wasn't designed
to affect humans,

but we didn't know
what would happen

when it was released
into the atmosphere.

It could have mutated
like Ebola-Zaire or Reston...

We weren't sure that,
once it took out the Kromaggs,

it wouldn't attack every
living thing on this planet.

So far, we haven't had
to use it.

I came here to help my child.

And the check's
in the mail.

What about my son?

We can't be sure that
it would help him anyway.

It was designed for humans.

The baby's own Kromagg blood
is killing him.

It's worth the risk.

Not to me.

Oh, God, Christina,
I'm sorry.

So am I.

He's going into his mind.

Stop it.

He's not injured.

I merely wanted to see if what
he was saying was the truth.

And?

The anti-virus is nearby.

It's in a lab, in a
classified military facility.

I'll bring it here, and we
will administer it to my son.

I hate to sound like
we don't trust you,

but we don't trust you.

She's right.

We can't just let you
waltz in there by yourself.

No offense.

Do you have any suggestions?

Well, I think
we could start by, uh,

keeping an eye
on each other.

Truce?

Truce.

Not just yet.

... Colonel Jay
Ewing, report to Base Operations.

Uh...

Is there
any plan here?

I thought we'd just
walk right in.

They'll see what
I want them to see.

Good afternoon, sir.

Afternoon. These officers
are from the Pentagon.

I want to show them the AKV
research establishment.

Very well, Mr. Griffin, but you'll
need O-level clearance passes.

We've got them.

Very impressive.

We have to hurry.

I cannot maintain this level
of deception very much longer.

Hey, there.

I'm glad somebody's
found time to take a nap.

I'm sorry. We couldn't find out
anything about the Kromagg war.

All the information was
censored by the military.

The librarian, she looked at us
pretty funny when we started asking,

so we figured it was just
best to beat it out of there.

It was a virus.

Excuse me?

That's how they won the war.

They released a virus into the
air that only kills Kromaggs.

Wait a minute,
how do you know this?

The Kromagg commander
of the camp I was in,

the baby's father,
he followed us here.

What?

Where's Quinn
and Maggie?

We're here.

What are we going to do
about the O-clearance?

Dr. Griffin.

Dr. Townsend. You're
still on the AKV Project.

They won't let me off it.

Ah. Tough gig.

The worst.

My colleagues here
are in from DC for a week.

Fact-finding junket.
That sort of thing.

I'd like to show them the, uh,
latest work being done on the virus.

Sorry I have to ask, but do you have your O
- level pass with you?

Rules, rules, rules.

Don't know what the brass is
so interested in this stuff for.

There's no chance of a Kromagg
being on this planet.

Right.
