Original subtitles

Stop!

Stop!

You must go. I will do what I have to.

You must come back and retrieve it later.

It will speak.

There is no other choice.

This is my duty.

Now please.

Well,

well, you led us on a merry dance, didn't you? Huh?

No.

Crap. What is it?

It's not in anymore, is it? Look at him.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, he's not gonna answer.

When the bug leaves the body, you die.

It's part of the deal, and it's been in there for a long, long time.

Help him out, will you?

Okay, people, moving on.

Spread out. He must have passed the bug on to somebody.

Wait.

The old lady he was running with.

Find her.

I thought I got told. Onruji-san, what happened?

Suki's never done anything like this before.

Suki? A giant lizard creature.

Oh.

Oh,

she's usually so dust now.

He can't understand it.

No one was hurt, but there was much panic. People running through the

streets, screaming.

Wow. Just like in the movie.

No.

Nothing like a movie.

Where is she now?

She's been sedated offshore while we build an enclosure on one of our

islands.

Last night she was fine. This morning, all of a sudden, like a switch was

turned on.

Okay, so a giant lizard creature loose in Tokyo.

How are we gonna spin this?

So? Well, it looks like our spin is holding up.

Anyone who saw Suki now thinks it's part of some big Hollywood blockbuster

shooting down by the harbor.

Good. I'm getting pressure from New York to keep this story quiet.

Our new head of house there, Terence Wexford, is very keen on making his

mark.

You're under pressure? What's that about?

Nothing. Everything's fine.

Listen, Magnus.

I know you, okay? I know when something's up.

I promise you when the time comes, you will be the person that I talk to, all

right?

Henry. Sorry to bother you, Doc. Got some breaking news out of London.

What is it? I'm catching through a video right now.

What is that?

Dear God.

London, call it.

Well, we caught her.

As you can see, she's still a little riled up.

We just came back from Tokyo.

We had a similar problem with Sugi.

What happened?

She went psycho. Broke out of her enclosure for no apparent reason.

Now, I've received dispatches from Sydney, Rio, and Lagos. All of them are

reporting similar incidents.

In each case, one or two abnormals suddenly started acting up. Out of the

blue, no warning.

What is causing this?

No idea.

We'd better figure it out, and quickly.

So far, we've been lucky no one's been seriously hurt, but that won't be the

case forever.

It could be a virus, like Lazarus last year. Maybe, but this is a very select

group of abnormals, and the behavior response is totally different.

Lazarus triggered violence.

This, whatever it is, is causing outright fear.

A change in atmosphere.

No air satellite feeds would have detected something like that.

Besides, the Peruvian sepulis is incredibly sensitive to these kind of

fluctuations, and yet Lima's reported no problems.

Which leaves us with sound, something subsonic.

Doubtful. Pterodactyls have a high tolerance for that. Can I just say that

arguing over the cause at this point in time is useless?

We need to initiate an immediate global alert. We're not there yet, Terrence.

Only a handful of abnormals have been affected so far. Almost causing a panic

in London and Tokyo.

Why risk further exposure?

Dr. Magnus, I've just received a report.

A giant sand ray has been found in the desert, a hundred kilometers east of

Minya. Dead.

Surfaced inexplicably.

This is the middle of a tabernation site.

All right, everyone, please, let's not panic.

There has to be a reason that this is happening. We just have to remain

vigilant until we can figure out what it is.

In the meantime, survey your sentient abnormals and keep tabs on the rest.

Report any changes in behavior to Declan immediately.

Dr. Magnus, I must insist that... That's all.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, Dr. Magnus.

Yes, Ravi, what is it? I'm not sure if this falls under our purview, but I

thought it was worth mentioning.

A man was found shot dead in Derevi. He had the mark of Kali on his left leg.

Kali? Yeah, it's an ancient cult dating back 5,000 years.

Its followers were rumored to be able to foretell disaster.

So they're abnormals? No idea.

We've never actually made contact with them.

I appreciate it, Ravi. Thank you.

I'll be in touch.

So what do you think? You think this Callie thing ties in?

No idea. The situation's so fractured, anything, no matter how insignificant,

could be a factor.

What?

You want me to go to Mumbai?

I have to stay here and manage this situation.

You mean manage Wexford?

Yeah, you picked up on that, did you? Yeah, just a little.

Okay.

Take Kate with you to Mumbai.

It'll be fun.

We're going on a trip, he says. It'll be fun, he says. Please stop talking for

two minutes, he says.

Hey, I have just been on a plane for 15 hours. I am entitled to a little

complaining. Yeah, well, try flying through Tokyo and London first, and then

we'll talk.

Dr. Zimmerman. Miss Freelander.

Namaste. I'm Dr. Ganapati Raman.

Hi, Dr.

Doctor. I'm Will. And you must call me Ravi. Thank God.

I'll be Kate.

Kate. Pavitar.

Pure.

No, just cape.

I have rooms ready for you if you need to rest.

Absolutely. No, actually, we're fine. Why don't we just get started?

Moving fast in Mumbai?

It's a bad idea.

What, are we here on vacation?

Bring on the heat.

Female. You can tell by the markings.

Yes.

Young, too. Maybe 60, 70 years old.

Damn, there aren't that many of these left.

I've arranged for a helicopter transport to Cairo.

We should do a biopsy on the wings, tail, and cephalic lobe. Send them to

London.

Declan can do a full workout, see if there's any leak to the other abnormals.

Yalla!

Any chance we can get access to the victim?

We're in good with the local authorities.

They've given us the crime scene and I've arranged with the coroner to borrow

the body for a window of time. Good.

Should be delivered to the sanctuary this afternoon.

Cops have anything yet?

Still haven't ID'd the body.

They think this was just another drug deal gone bad.

I don't think so.

Talk to me, William.

Well, the spatter angle seems very long.

You think slum gangbangers carry that heavy a caliber?

Doubtful. Cheaper the gun, smaller the bullet. I'm thinking.

Military issue.

These are new treads. It's a recent acquisition.

Yeah, those kicks cost.

Okay, so, some dudes with expensive boots and even more expensive guns were

here. So, not a local job, then?

Well, I'm saying no.

Not unless the locals buy their guns direct from the manufacturer.

Hammer piercing, 9mm, steel jacket, Russian.

Pricey.

You thought I was just a token Indian, didn't you?

Okay, so all of this points to a professional, if not military-style hit.

Why? I mean, who is this guy?

What do they want from him?

Well, this cult he belonged to.

Hey, Ravi.

What's this?

A shrine to the goddess Durga. They're fairly common.

Okay, so the witnesses say that the victim was being chased, but he had a

good head start.

There's lots of ways out of this alley. Why did he stop here?

Because he was headed this way?

Yeah.

Hey, what do you make of this?

Nice call.

Uh, Dr. Zimmerman.

Will Zedd with the score.

You guys are good.

Is that supposed to be there?

No.

Huh.

Let's get this back to the sanctuary.

Helicopters are half an hour out.

Apparently they had some problems with navigations.

That's all right. It's given me a chance to study these samples.

What do you make of this?

Evidence of nociception.

Exactly. This creature was in pain.

Which explains the fear reaction, but what caused it? I still don't know.

I'm going to have to compare notes with Declan when I get back to London.

Peely, you worked with Terence Wexford in Berlin, right?

Yes.

How do you think he's enjoying his new post?

I think he's enjoying the authority of it immensely.

I see.

Thank you, Petey.

You think this was hidden by the dead guy?

Or someone else, or it means nothing.

We'll run some scans, see what turns up.

Kate, Indian military has no record of any personnel operating in Dharavi

during the time of the murder.

Okay, so we're looking for career mercenaries, ex-military.

I'll send out a few emails, see if any K&R or Blackwater guys were in town.

No trace on the casing we found?

None, but we do have an ID on the victim.

One Ajay Pravaljit.

No immediate family, no fixed address.

Huh. Body's downstairs.

We're ready to start the autopsy.

Wow, I am jet-lagged.

I think I better turn in, but why don't you do the autopsy and we'll just go

over the results tomorrow.

I thought he was a doctor.

He is.

Just not the kind that likes autopsies.

Don't make me come in there.

No, seriously, don't make me come in there.

Hey.

Wow. Next time you should actually try sleeping.

Oh, I don't know.

I guess it's the 22 time zones in two days.

Well, snap out of it.

Robbie's downstairs. He says he's got something.

All right, I'll...

Tests on the statue came back clean.

There's nothing unusual about it.

However... I completed the autopsy on Mr. Paveljit.

According to his DNA scan, he's human.

So imagine my surprise when I examined his internal organs and found evidence

that he was over 200 years old.

What?

But his DNA is normal. You sure? Absolutely.

He's 100% human. I ran the test three times to be sure.

Rafty son of a bitch.

Stares down the barrel of a gun not 20 feet away from where he hid the bloody

thing.

That's devotion.

So where is it now?

Well, I think that's a good question.

Any sign of the old woman on the statue now?

This one said he saw someone take the statue.

A man.

Was he a white man like me?

Yeah. Yeah?

Competition. Magnus' people.

It would be so crappy if they got to the bug before us.

Lads, it's just got more difficult.

How was Egypt?

Ah, tiring.

And what's the other word I'm looking for? Ah, yes, sandy.

What's been happening here?

Well, you'll be pleased to hear that most of the affected abnormals have

calmed down substantially.

Whatever was causing the flare-up seems to have dissipated somewhat.

Well, that's a relief.

These are the locations where the event took place.

London, Tokyo, Sydney, Rio, Lagos, Cairo.

There doesn't appear to be a common link between them.

No pattern that I can discern.

You're saying all these places were affected at the same time?

Roughly. Why?

If it was some kind of trigger, it would have to be very strong and moving very

quickly. Any impulse of some kind?

Maybe. That doesn't align with the symptoms we're seeing.

Exactly. I mean, none of the abnormals we're dealing with are usually affected

by EM spikes.

Not to mention I don't know anything powerful enough to send a pulse

worldwide like that.

Still, I'll have Henry go over the satellite data. There must be something

we're missing.

You were right about the pulse. Chinese weather satellite caught a trace of a

unique energy signature right around the time the incidents began.

I followed it to this.

It's an e-impulse originating in Mumbai.

Right in the heart of Durevi.

Dear God.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I said.

So what do you think it means?

That this is somehow connected to the cult of Kali.

And voila.

Drink this.

Thanks.

I don't know what's wrong with me. I feel like I'm dying or something.

Maybe it's something you ate.

You know, the first time I was here...

I had a small cell off the street cart. I barfed for like two days straight.

Okay, thank you. That's great.

Wow.

Maybe you should go back and lie down.

Yeah, maybe that's a good idea.

Do you want me to come with you?

No, thanks. I'm fine.

Why don't you just keep asking about the cult?

You sure you're okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, I think I just need to sleep.

Thank you.

They must not find him.

You lost him? No, he wasn't feeling well, so we headed back to the sanctuary

early. Did you check the hospitals? Nobody fits his description.

What about his cell phone?

Tracked it using a GPS.

Found it in a ditch.

I've organized a search. We have people going door to door.

Don't worry, we'll find him.

Show me the statue you found.

Kate?

He's out there, which means I am too.

We just found out, sir. She only landed here 90 minutes ago.

Probably beneficial.

Get a passenger manifest. You can't just come to me and say, guess what, boss,

she's suddenly in town. Sir, she flies a private charter with a bogus flight

plan. There's no way we could have known. Enough. Enough.

I mean, this isn't a game.

It's a one-shot, once-in-a-lifetime thing.

Some mooks from the local sanctuary. One thing. Helen Magnus.

Whoa, she's another.

And it means if we screw up, even marginally, we're going to get pinched.

Or die.

What worse?

No more surprises.

Commemorates the ceremony of acceptance.

You recognize it? From a conference in Brazil about 40 years ago.

Markings are similar, signifying a cop member's initiation as a dute. Dute.

I don't know that word.

Ancient Urdu dialect, meaning herald or guardian, or in some translations,

prophet.

It was believed that the dutes could foretell disaster, earthquakes, tsunamis

and the like, and that the advance warning gave the other cult members a

chance to escape.

Seems like someone with that ability would be worth more alive than dead.

Definitely.

You're sure there was nothing inside these?

They're completely solid.

Scans for surface residue are still pending.

Oh.

Pattern inside here changes.

Design loses symmetry.

Something's missing.

Bring some hot water.

The fever is already high.

Durga, where have you been?

I've been looking for you.

I tried to call, but you didn't answer.

What's wrong?

Are you sick?

What's happened to you?

Why won't you answer me?

Will he survive?

I don't believe it. What?

Test show surface residue on the statue came from a Macri. I'm not familiar with

that species.

You wouldn't be. It's an incredibly rare species of abnormal spider that requires

warm-blooded hosts to survive.

I thought they were extinct.

Something that rare would be very valuable. Oh, no.

This isn't about money.

This is about something far worse.

The Macri is a subspecies offshoot of a marine-dwelling abnormal known as

Javalis Bertoloso.

It's a massive arachnid creature capable of manipulating tectonic plates via

focused magnetic resonance.

You're talking about Big Bertha.

The one who makes the Earth move.

And the waters rise.

The Macri is its tiny genetic cousin.

They may well have a link, a chemical or even psychic bond, that allows the host

a deeper connection to Big Bertha.

So... If anyone finds this Macri... They could potentially use it to locate the

most powerful abnormal on Earth. Wait, but Big Bertha's dead.

You killed her four years ago, yes? We all know that.

Dr. Magnus?

Not exactly.

You kept her alive and lied about it?

Historically, creatures as powerful as Big Bertha have a symbiotic relationship

with other life forms on this planet.

I felt that euthanizing her would create far greater problems.

Tidal patterns would be altered.

Undersea ecological systems completely destroyed massive geological shifts.

The best course of action was to keep her secure and under watch.

Killing her posed far greater risks than keeping her alive.

Where is she?

Specialized containment field, bottom of the Indian Ocean. Which you kept hidden

from the entire sanctuary network. It was necessary to keep her and the rest

of the world safe.

It was my prerogative, Ravi.

My choice.

Okay.

Fine.

We need to dispatch ships immediately.

Increase security to the entire area. Of course.

I'll get Henry on it. He'll coordinate.

But we need to find Will.

If the Macri behaves the way I believe it does, then it could well be a doorway

into finding Bertha's location.

Which is no doubt what the mercenaries were after when they killed Mr.

Paveljeet.

You went away for a while.

But now you're back.

Why did I get sick?

Because of the makli.

Ancient spider inside you.

The former host, Ajay, was being chased by bad men.

He hid the makli in the shrine of Durga.

You found it.

You were not supposed to.

Why did it... The makli needs a host.

When it doesn't have one...

It speaks for all the world to hear.

It shows you, which is a great honor.

I should go back to the sanctuary.

The streets are not safe.

For that matter, the sanctuary may not be either.

You must stay hidden until you get proper training.

Trained? To become a suitable host.

It is in the blood of my people to withstand the trials of the Makri.

You're strong, but you're far from being ready.

Helen, news travels fast.

Terrence? You kept Bertha alive after all we discussed.

It was necessary.

And I appreciate your opinion.

But things have changed considerably.

Do you have any leads?

At the moment, we're at a bit of a disadvantage.

But Bertha is secure, I assure you. And let's hope she stays that way.

Your certainness, Macri, is linked to her.

We are now. Let me come to Mumbai.

Help you analyze everything you've learned.

You don't need to do that. Besides, you've got your hands full in New York.

You have my complete support, Helen. You always have.

But people are questioning your judgment.

I can handle it.

I hope so.

What is the Makri?

It's what gives you your power.

My power?

To be a Dut.

A prophet.

It is through you that the destroyer of the world communicates with us.

Kali.

She's extremely powerful.

Without the Makri to help us speak to her, we'll be as helpless as leaves in

the wind.

That's the woman of my visions.

That's Kali.

You're seeing it already?

Then your connection must be very strong.

What are we

going

to do?

Run and hide. Go, go, go, go.

We've got search ships moving into the area now. We should be at Bertha's

coordinates in six hours or less.

Good. I want you on a plane immediately with the weapon. We'll monitor her

sensors from here.

Yeah, about that.

Just so you know, I went over the sensor logs.

You know how she's supposedly been asleep this whole time?

Well, guess what happened at roughly the same time as the Mumbai E-impulse. She

responded to the call of the Macri. Yeah.

She emitted a magnetic burst so low in frequency that the sensors didn't detect

it until I did a full scan.

But it was powerful enough to briefly alter the Earth's magnetic field.

Magnetic north shifted by 100,000th of a degree.

Navigation instruments all over the world were affected.

Doc, that is power.

Let's go. Come on. Let's go.

Well, who said good things don't happen to good people, huh?

Dr. Wills, a moment?

And you?

Ah, I've been looking for you for years.

If I'm not mistaken, you're the last surviving member of the cult of Kali.

You're too old to understand it, so the spider's got to be in him.

Please, you must not do this.

Are you kidding?

She's kidding.

Of course I must.

This is huge.

I was sure your boss was going to find you before I did, so I think this is

kismet.

Karma.

Fate.

All that stuff.

Get that set up.

Who are you?

Me?

Just a guy.

With lots of money.

And people.

I like to get my hands on rare stuff.

You know?

Why, did you think I was someone a bit cooler?

And abnormal?

Hmm?

Don't I wish it.

But you just wait.

What are you... What are you gonna do to me?

You mean you haven't worked it out yet?

Okay, so you know that little thing inside of you?

It's like a Dylan earthquake in a box.

You see, you are psychically connected to... Callie.

Yeah.

Well, I was going to say Big Bertha, but sure.

Big Bertha.

Callie.

One and the same.

I know, I know. You thought she was dead. So did everybody.

Thanks to Sheriff Magnus.

But she's still alive and kicking.

And whoever has that bug inside of them, they control her.

So, my friend here is going to hit you with a low-frequency magnetic pulse. And

I'm not going to lie to you.

That little thing is not going to like it.

Not one little bit.

But to tell you the truth, it's the only way to get the bug out, alright?

So, sorry Will.

Wait a second.

Just hold on a second.

Hold it, hold it!

What have you done?

Relax, he's perfectly okay.

You just need to send your signal out, don't you little buddy?

Before you're ready for your new home.

Good. I need a detailed list of all naval traffic within a 500-kilometer

radius of the coordinates around Bertha.

What is it?

Satellites just picked up a disturbance at Mumbai.

It's the E-Impulse again.

The Macri.

It's coming from a warehouse about six kilometers northeast of here. I need to

let Kate know.

The pulse went global. They've probably detected it by now.

I need a few minutes. Start packing up. Copy that.

Start packing up.

You're not prepared for this.

I've been training for years for this moment.

Rocky on the courtyard steps.

I know all about you people.

I've mimicked your diet, oxygen levels, nutrients.

I've mastered your meditation. I've opened more chakras than you can shake a

stick at. Oh, BB.

I'm prepared. You cannot force the Mughal to take you as a host.

It must choose.

Oh, the whole religious bit.

Ceremony of acceptance.

Coming with the gods. Tinky-winky-woo-woo.

I've read all about that.

Bugler.

There's more to it than you know. It's a bug.

It needs a host.

It's science.

I have a sensor alert for Bertha's containment location.

What?

Movement.

I see it. Can you compensate?

Flood the area with sedative.

Already done.

Her system's beating it.

Bloody hell, they found her.

Sir, it's happening. Lock onto a tracking beacon.

Got it.

Is she emitting any magnetic energy?

No.

Are any of our ships close?

Nearest vessels are 29 kilometers out.

It's not good enough.

They're tracking her.

What about their ships?

Two sanctuary vessels within 30k.

Watch this.

Magnus, what's happening?

I don't know. I've lost telemetry on Bertha. I don't have a position.

Neither do I.

Magnetic bursts just scrambled their system, sir. Two sanctuary ships dead in

the water. And their homing beacon?

Disabled. Could be interference. Reboot the system.

Kate, what's your position?

Almost there.

Sorry.

Really.

Just business.

Go to hell.

Sir, we've got sanctuary personnel in the vicinity.

They're closing in.

Okay, people, let's get the hell out of this hole.

Put her in the van.

What about him?

He's already dead.

Converge on the warehouse.

Converge on the warehouse.

Reboot is complete.

I've lost all satellite data for the region.

Well, get it back!

I can't.

Damn it.

They're used to the blindness.

They've got Big Bertha.

Oh, Will.

Oh, God.

Call Magnus.

No pulse.

Oh, God.

Come on.

Come on, Will.

Come on.

Yeah.

Didn't hurt.
