Original subtitles

He gave the order to take us out and kill us all, men and women alike.

We had no choice.

We called them advanced cultivars. Why did we develop them in the first place?

Some of the early pattern ACs came with the advanced military missions to test

survivability. We were looking for genetic patterns to help us survive.

What do you want from me, Rudy?

To tell you face to face that someday I shall destroy you.

It has been suggested you be given a place on general council.

Second chance.

That's what this place is all about.

That's better for you. If you were straightforward, it wouldn't be such a

problem. I consider myself at war with your people, but not with you.

If you ever want to speak to me, send up a flare from beyond the perimeter.

It'll be seen.

What did Rudy speak to you about?

The day they thought that we were all going to die.

We all thought we were going to die.

My children did die.

another step.

I'm going in. Okay.

Who are you?

What are you doing here?

I said don't move.

And they've been kind enough to confirm the rumours that we're flying around

Fort Haven.

Beyond the city walls, alive and well, are a bunch of supermen they call the

Advanced Cultivars.

And apparently they're angry.

Very angry.

So thanks for that, Mr. President. Guess we'll all be sleeping with the light...

Expeditionaries called it in around dawn.

Seems like he must have been caught out there when the whiteout hit. Poor

bastard. Concussion, mild head trauma.

If he's wounded, shouldn't he be in the medical center?

Let's just say at this stage, it's wise to take precautions.

You're not going to let him return to the AC camp?

Well, the time is right, of course.

I mean, the ACs know that they're only alive because Mitchell disobeyed council

orders. They're not going to forget that.

And until I'm sure his presence in this city is an accident... And make sure Paz

keeps an eye on him.

Thank you, Cass.

Did you go to bed or did you spend the whole night working?

No, of course I went to bed.

Thanks for your concern, though.

In an ideal world, you know, there'd be a sunflower growing in this.

You probably don't remember, but you used to love them when you were little.

Before you go out, there's something I've been meaning to give you. I had

this made for you when I arrived.

It was the first time I'd stepped onto this planet, the first rock I picked up.

It's stupid, really, but I saved it for when you arrived.

Good luck with the work.

Figured you might be hungry.

Yeah, not exactly gourmet dining, but it'll do the job.

Willow and seed samples.

We've used thousands, but our success rate's still only in double figures. And

when we run out, we can't go back for more. Gone forever.

So many species lost.

I've been running modifications on them, seeing if I can find a way to... I

just... I just don't understand how some seem to flourish, but most fail.

As with the ACs.

Seemingly able to reproduce despite the sterility programme.

Yet we struggle.

Yep. Only one reported pregnancy in four months, Marie Doherty.

I'm continuing to perform tests on the samples we took from the AC baby, but I

need more data.

The AC and the secure centre?

You want to run tests on him as well?

Yes.

Richard, they're not toys for us to play with.

Agreed. And I don't want to do anything to cause him harm or discomfort, but DNA

samples from a grown male would be very useful.

We're trying to ensure the future of our race, and that has to come above

everything else.

Richard, are you okay?

You injured?

We got a runaway.

I see it's escaped.

Letting into the belly of the transporter.

Passer, making sure all the exits are sealed. I need you to find him, Cass, as

fast as you can, but approach with caution. You hear me?

I'll do my best. It's like a maze down here.

You okay?

Have you been in an accident?

I don't know.

Come on then, let's get you cleaned up.

It's okay, don't worry.

You stand still, do you?

No.

It's just water.

You're one of them, aren't you?

Macy.

Do you have a name?

Elijah.

It's a nice name, that.

You stop squirming about.

I had to do this all the time for my kids before... Well, we were unlucky.

Please, no.

Not sleep, please.

Get up.

Please, not sleep.

Please.

Please, get up.

Get up.

Whoa,

whoa, slow down.

Where are you going? More chance of finding them if you spread out. But you

didn't see the size of this fella. It's not my fault if you can't keep up. Sure,

I know. But I'd just be less worried if you were behind me.

Need a medic, fast as you can.

Sluice room, corridor five, lower transporter.

She's still breathing.

It's not her fault.

She's just scared.

Try not to talk, please.

An exit door's been found damaged and open on the lower south section. So he's

out there on the loose in Fort Haven. You knew he was a danger. That's why you

had him put in the secure centre. I knew he had a history of aggressive

behaviour, but nothing like this.

A call's gone out to all pass officers for a city-wide search. Public opinion

about the ACs is still confused.

We just don't want to cause a panic.

I'd say an aggressive AC and a badly wounded woman is every reason to panic.

Which is why we want to bring him in quickly and quietly.

Minimum force.

We should be all right.

Cleaner.

We don't know. Medical staff are doing everything they can.

Let's just focus on the job.

Be careful out there.

Understand?

What do you think?

Not going to win any Art Awards, that's for sure. It's a landing memorial.

You can see it from here, look.

Incredible job, people.

Losing an AC, that's quite an achievement.

You picked him up this morning.

Did he say anything to you? Anything at all?

We didn't get a chance to have a good old chit-chat.

Unless he was faking it.

Let's hope not.

Just give me the nod.

I'll have my team out scouring the city. We live and breathe this sort of thing.

We'll have the AC bagged and tagged by the end of the day. It's not a hunting

party. We're to bring him in alive.

He's attacked once.

I wouldn't be surprised if he does it again.

You know how it works.

The fence and beyond, that's your watch. Everything inside is pass.

That worries me even more.

We can deal with it.

Look, I'm not suggesting we run round the streets guns a-blazing. Although I

have a feeling you might quite enjoy that.

At least warn the public.

Causing panic isn't an answer.

So it's softly, softly all the way. I'm not sanctioning an execution out there.

You were the one who sent them away from the city.

You ordered Mitchell to wipe them out. I'm also the one who offered to help

them, should they choose to accept it.

Which just tells me that you don't understand them anymore. Mitchell spared

the ACs because he took pity on them. They respected Mitchell for who he was.

But you, me, Fort Haven, they despise us.

And we're the enemy.

For all we know, this is war.

While we appreciate your offer of help, this isn't your jurisdiction.

Stella's call.

It's still a pass operation.

We'll do it that way.

Julius Berger.

Member of the General Council.

I just really wanted to stop by and say personally how sorry I am.

How sorry we all are.

I'm going to be sure that I will not rest until this perpetrator is brought

to justice.

But we do need your help.

You can tell the people what this animal did to you.

Warn them of the dangers so when it's finally caught, it can never do harm to

anyone ever again.

No.

I don't think you fully understand the situation.

This thing that attacked you, it's not the only one.

I know what it is you want me to do But I

know what I saw he didn't mean to do it he was scared

like a child Stupid woman

you don't know any

You know, there's this great old earth custom of knocking on a door before

coming in. You should have locked it then.

Good point.

Hear them streets aren't safe anymore.

I'm Lily, I'm... Stella Eisenstetter, yeah, I've seen you about.

Sure my mother's got a law against noise pollution.

I might as well, right? A fine woman.

For a past scumbag, you know.

This was sitting outside for you.

What is it?

See you then.

This is Radio Free Carpathia.

And I'm the idiot who's come into some knowledge.

Not for my eyes and definitely not for your ears.

But I've got to ask myself...

If I was you folks out there, would I want to hear about this?

And unfortunately, the answer is yes.

Okay, so... You know those advanced cultivars?

The mythical men that have kept secret from us for such a long time.

It would seem one of them was in Fort Haven yesterday.

And while he was here, he attacked and injured some poor woman.

But here's the kicker.

They didn't manage to catch him.

He's on the loose, right here, right now.

Look, you know me.

I like to play a few tunes, have a laugh. I don't want to cause any

trouble.

So I'll just say this.

Watch your backs.

Oh, and if you see him, run.

Run like hell.

How the hell did he get hold of that information?

Someone in your department obviously leaked it.

I'll find out who.

This is not good. I know.

I've been to the Medicenter. Thankfully, it seems that Sarah's going to make a

complete recovery. For that, at least, we can be grateful.

You blame yourself, don't you? Of course.

If we don't find Elijah soon, if we're not seen to be doing something, then

we'll have lost Forthaven's trust for good.

And if that happens, we're finished.

Anything? I just thought maybe the drawing meant something.

Yeah.

I always feel a bit weird looking at this.

Imagine what it must have been like for him.

Patrick Baxter, first man to set foot on Carpathia.

Slips out of this shuttle, hoping to God or whoever that the ground didn't just

disappear beneath his feet.

Slash?

I don't think you're going to need that.

I'll take my chances. What happened? Him.

I can't go back there.

You don't have a choice.

Not after what you've done.

So let's not make this difficult with both of us, yeah?

I'll make the green light go red.

What green light?

The green light was good. It told me that I was safe.

That everything was OK.

But then the red light...

In the secure centre, the one you escaped from.

No.

Not there. A long time ago.

I'm not going back there.

You promised.

Nan.

Something's not right about this.

I've seen killers, but they all run when the time comes.

To turn around and save someone when they could have escaped.

What do you think happened to him?

I don't know.

That man.

The one you were talking to.

Tate.

Now I see him again, I know I'm not safe.

I know I'm not safe at all.

Whatever we're going to do, we can't do it here.

We need to get inside.

Elijah.

You hurt someone.

Do you understand that?

I know.

But I'm not there.

You didn't do it.

Are I not there?

You said Tate lied to you.

I wanted to be like the others.

Tate said I would be.

Said I would have to wait.

Then I could be with my brothers and sisters again.

Every day, every night for so long.

What's different after that?

What did they do to him?

I don't know.

One person does.

Tight.

You've got full access to his office. Whatever happened to him, it'll be in

there. I'm not sure our president would appreciate me rummaging about.

He doesn't have to know.

No, we should bring him in.

Cass, I know your history with Tate, but we've been lied to before.

And we don't know what they did to him or what they'd do to him if he was

returned.

God, I hate it when you're right.

Elijah. I need you to trust us.

Are you going to take me back?

No, not... Not yet.

You promise?

Yes.

We promise.

Don't do anything stupid. Stay by the door. If he even moves, you get out of

here. Understand?

Thank you, Cass.

Cass? You missed the security meeting.

I was out looking for the AC.

I figured it was more important.

Appreciate your dedication.

Just doing my job.

Look, nobody said what happens when we find the AC, when we bring him in.

Well, as you know, certain modifications were made to the ACs. With Elijah, we

went further.

And I'm worried that this may be the root of his behavioral problems. But

that's something you can reverse. On Earth, maybe. But with the resources

here, then hopefully he'll rehabilitate. Hopefully.

We could just set him free, you know? Send him scurrying back to the AC's

camp. I need to be sure that he's not going to come back here and put our

people in danger.

The safety of Fort Taven has to come above all.

And that's what I need you for.

It means a lot to me.

If there's one thing rock and roll has taught us, my friends, it's that you

can't trust the man.

But at least you can trust old Tipper here to play you some decent tunes while

you wrestle with your parent.

You could just knock, you know.

I didn't think you'd trust the man enough to open it.

Well, I like to think you and me have a special understanding.

Well, in that case, you won't mind telling me where you got the information

about the AC.

I can't reveal my sources, Stella.

I know.

Can't beat it.

Every scratch, every pop, every jump becomes part of the song.

Becomes something more.

It's a bit of our heritage, you wouldn't.

Telling the truth isn't a crime.

Not yet.

Do you think that's the way people would like to hear it?

Would you believe me if I said... I didn't want to tell you for your own

good? No, I wouldn't.

Only because you asked me.

But I'm sorry, all right?

Why are you sorry?

It was Lily.

It was your daughter.

We shouldn't be here.

We should be the ones hunting down the AC.

I guess someone needs to load the pipes to keep the water supply going.

Yeah, I agree.

Someone does.

But this is donkey work. This is beneath us.

Something has to change around here.

Yeah. I made sure Wooden has stood for this.

Jake!

What now?

What is it? Take a look.

Elijah, have you ever hurt anyone before?

The others understand me.

Rudy makes sure they do.

Makes sure I'm safe.

Make sure they're safe from me.

Got it.

They experimented on him. On the neural pathways that lead to the amygdala.

You're mistaking me for someone who speaks science.

It's an area of the brain's temporal lobe.

It affects the learning and processing of responses to danger, to fear.

You're a perfect worker for an unstable planet. But in day-to-day life, unable

to control his reactions.

I could never have known what would happen to him. Even so, Cass.

I know, but I don't like lying to Tate. And it isn't our job to decide these

things. Well, you'll be safe if we bring him in.

I can't promise that, Fleur.

Elijah said Rudy knew how to control them. If I could get them back out

there... I'm sure the ACs will be delighted to see me strolling back into

their camp. I can contact Rudy. There's a way. You wait here with Elijah.

We have our orders.

So you'd happily walk him in, have his blood in your hands?

I just don't like the idea of you going out there alone.

But you won't stop me.

And you'll be here when I get back.

You recognise this? I stole it from you.

I know why you did it.

You wanted to hurt me to see how I'd react, what I'd do.

But this goes beyond me, Lily.

The trouble that this leak could cause.

You have no idea what it was like.

Being left behind.

Then please, will you tell me something about yourself?

for the birthday.

I had this terrible nightmare Dad spent the whole night up with me.

It made me talk it through, made me understand that it was all in my head.

That it couldn't hurt me.

And you'll never know what that nightmare was.

It's too late.

I think you're right, Lily. I think it is too late.

I think it's better that you find somewhere else to stay.

For now.

You're right.

Maybe it would be best if I found somewhere else.

Is there some reason I wasn't informed of a private security meeting?

Yes, it was private, and it didn't concern you.

Oh, well, I like to think everything in Fort Haven is my concern.

I could be of use to you if you let me, Richard.

You're part of the council, Julius.

It doesn't mean you need to see all and hear all.

Ah, nevertheless, I do my part.

Having a small candlelit vigil for...

Poor injured woman, Sarah, in the hopes that some element of prayer might aid in

her recovery. Well, I'll put my faith in the skills of our medical staff.

Look, even if my beliefs are misplaced, what do I lose by having faith?

Nothing.

It brings me peace, gives me hope that when I slide into the darkness, there'll

be light at the end.

Tell me, President Tate, what do you have to look forward to?

Dinner. What's it like being you?

You know, an AC.

It's just half the people here to understand you a lot.

How similar we are, or not.

I mean... You know, you feel like us, right?

You laugh, cry, fall in love.

Love? Yeah.

You know, it's like when... Oh,

well done, Cass.

You know, it's like when a boy meets a girl and there's this... feeling.

Oh, you're messing with me, aren't you?

I think we're not so different.

We both laugh, cry, love.

Sounds like there's a special someone out there for you.

Another AC back at your camp?

She's very beautiful.

Do you feel the same way?

I don't know, I've never spoken to her.

No, sorry, I don't mean... It's just, you know, both of

us standing up here worrying about whether that special girl likes us or

not.

Easy, big guy, it's just a stomp.

Please. If you're there, say something.

Please.

You're awake.

Yes, I am.

Thank you.

I hurt you.

It's getting worse all the time.

If you're back home, amongst your own people, though.

Maybe it's best if I'm kept away from everyone.

So you come in with me.

Right now.

I'm okay.

What happened?

Well, you know, boys night out, a bit rough and tumble.

He'll be safe now.

You know what was done to him?

Yeah, I know.

That's why he shouldn't be here now.

As soon as I can take him back... They're not just going to let us walk

out here with him.

The switch shifts on the guard posts in an hour. If we time it right... No, spot

your mile off.

You need someone to delay them, a distraction.

Fleur, Elijah's getting... He even says so himself.

All the more reason for us to get him out of here.

Cass.

Yeah.

You really think you can keep him under control?

What if he stumbles back in here again? Hurt someone else?

He won't.

Well, maybe you don't understand him as well as you think.

He's one of my people.

He doesn't need control. He needs space to be left alone.

I'll make sure everything's set.

You wait for me to return.

I've been out there, Richard.

I mean, it's not pretty. The people are losing faith in you.

As if they're right.

You need your fellow council members to put on a public show of support. I'm

willing to do that, to stand up, to be counted, to say that I have absolute

trust in you. No.

Richard, you're drowning.

I'm offering you my hand. Are you so stubborn that you would turn it down?

I know you, Julius.

You wouldn't help a drowning man unless there was something in it for you.

All right, the way I see it, sorry, the way the people see it, your past squads

have singularly failed to track down and capture this dangerous creature.

Whether you want my help or not, I don't think you have a choice.

The AC isn't on the loose.

We've had him under lockdown out there since morning.

We're getting set to bring him in.

We have to make sure nothing interferes with the task in hand.

I'm afraid your grandstanding will have to wait for another day.

Do you really think you can keep their support after all of this?

That does cast a shadow over the whole AC program.

Raises questions about those involved.

And those who gave the go-ahead to the program at the time.

Wouldn't look too good for you either.

You did the right thing coming to see me.

Doesn't feel like it. Then why did you?

Elijah.

He's smarter than you'd think.

More self-aware.

He knows he's a danger and he seems to feel he's getting worse. More out of

control. Cass, I know this is difficult for you. And I don't blame you for

looking out for his welfare. But I promise you no harm will come to him.

We'll find a way to make him better. Whatever it takes. We owe him that much

for what was done.

She's not going to forgive me for this.

Please tell me you're not going to bring him in alone.

Who told you?

Berger. He has his concerns, so do I.

Take in a pass squad to form a perimeter.

Flush out Elijah, the target.

Take him down quickly and safely.

Trank shots.

It's not a bad plan of action.

So long as you're sure your men can contain him. He's not a normal person

we're dealing with. I can't risk him getting loose in the city again.

He's a danger. He doesn't mean to be, but... You sure are.

Your call.

If you need a second line of defence, well, that's your call as well. The XPs

don't have authority within the fence.

No, we don't. You do.

Look, you've got options if you want them.

I'm sure a pair of losers like us can put aside our differences for that.

Second perimeter, in position.

Don't screw this up, Cass.

Everything fine?

Look, sir, it wasn't easy, but you got your window of opportunity.

Are you sure?

We can stand and talk or we can get moving.

You'll be all right.

I promise.

Don't worry.

I understand.

Stay away from the window.

What? Just step back, cover your eyes.

No, Castle, please, no!

No!

No!

Where is she?

They're not going to let him drink shots.

I know.

What happened to Rudy?

He's returned to his camp, his people.

Whether there will be repercussions for this or not, it's too early to say.

Would you blame them after what we've done?

You could at least be angry with me.

I disobeyed orders, went behind your back. And I need people like you

questioning.

refusing to accept answers if they're not convinced.

There's no place for me here anymore.

And if I thought that were true, I would gladly show you the door.

We do what we have to, Fleur, to survive.

You were not authorised to open fire.

If it wasn't for me, we'd be dragging home the dead body of a pass officer.

I was there to support Cass. I did what was necessary. We're all on the same

team here.

Somehow I find that difficult to believe.

I found this.

Buried deep out beyond the fence.

I think when you look at it, you'll change your mind about how useful the

expeditionaries really are.

See, I did bolt the door, but some genius popped the lock off.

What's going on?

I need a place to stay.

Oh, no, no. Darling.

This is Tipper Central, not a doss house for waifs and strats.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Bloody hell, it's like kicking a kitten in the bollocks.

Go on, then.

House rules.

Don't touch my vinyl, don't use up all the hot water and don't hand me over any

more bloody official documents.

One shot, I hear.

Impressive.

It was necessary.

I'm sure it was.

But, you know, it might be better for us to play things a little more subtly from

now on.

Us?

Friends in high places, Jack.

We both know things need to change around here, and I very much would like

you to be a part of that.

I'll see you soon.

Elijah's body will be returned to the AC camp, so they can bury him in their own

way.

Small, useless gesture on our part.

You know, I almost envy them. Free out there.

With all we're dealing with, I'd rather get a go outside the fence these days.

Not like when we were here first.

Standing out there, eyes wide open, a whole new planet before us.

The only time I was ever comfortable out there, I was with the boys.

I wanted to tell them about the rock formations, why they were different from

Earth. But of course, all they wanted to do was run around, play.

Richard, Jack found something.

I'll help you on the fence.

How long has that been there? We're talking tens of thousands of years.

Are you saying humans have been here before?

I don't know.

I don't know, but this... This changes everything.

I was trying to protect you.

Protects us all.

Elijah told me himself he was getting worse, he was a danger.

And the tape promised... He promised he'd help him.

I never thought it would end like that.

You lied to me. Yes.

I did.

Your first loyalty is always gonna be to Tate.

Even though I understand that, I'm never gonna trust you again, Cass.

Never.

Yes, you will.

What makes you so sure? Because if you're ever stupid enough to ask for my

help again, you know that I'll be there to give it.

No matter what.

I know you're sorry.

And I'm sorry I couldn't protect Elijah.

And just for a moment, I want to forget about being so damn sorry all the time.

What can I do for you?

She's had tippers.

That's not really your concern.

No, I suppose it's not.

But for better or for worse, she listens to me.

She seems to respect me.

She should be here with her mother.

I wish I shared your confidence.

Lily needs to learn boundaries.

She'll understand sooner or later.

I'll do my best to make her see how lucky she is to have someone.

who cares for her the way you do.

I do understand, more than ever, that here in Fort Haven, on Carpathia, the

children are the future.

It's not the future I'm worried about.

I miss you so much I miss you all so much

I know you're not real.

I know you're not my children.

You can't be.

It's okay.

I don't want you to leave.

If you want, you can go and play.

Don't leave me yet.
