An anonymous donor
has offered to fund

the relocation of the clinic
from this gang-infested area.

Councilman Parker,
who is it? Who is the donor?

If you haven't
figured it out yet,
you work for me.

I ran a new simulation
and I may have found a way
to save all of them.

It's working.

No. What's happening?

I told you
what you needed to hear.

Fourteen of the vaccine kids
will survive.

Something happened
tonight, Jeff.

Gambi was attacked
near downtown Freeland.

Eyewitnesses confirm
no one got out of the SUV
before it exploded.

Anaya, aren't you excited
it's almost over?

Actually, I...
I'm terrified.

I just need you to do your job
so we could be on our way--

Deacon!

My God!

Come in. Help!

She knows!
You have to save the baby!

Find Anaya.

- Deacon. Come on,
no, no, no, Deacon!

Long way from home, missy.

There's a woman who lives
out here I need to check on.

Step out of the car.

Hell no!

I want you to
listen carefully.

There's something
out there that is of my body

but out of my control,
I can feel it.

I'm sorry, I don't...
I don't know what that means.

Seriously? You?

You don't know
what that means?

Jake, you told me
that I could depend on you

to anticipate, to execute.

It means everything I built
is being threatened.

How long have you been
a part of me?

It's been a while.

It's been five years, Jake.
I made you special.

-Look, I'm grateful,
Looker, I am.
-You should be.

When I first came
to South Freeland,

all of you were weak,
destroyed,

addicted to opioids and meth

and anything else that
you could get your hands on.

Now you live comfortably.

You eat well.
Your veins are clean.

And all I'm asking for
is a little appreciation

for you to do what I need done
without excuses!

You didn't help us.
You made us slaves.

You're worse than the drugs,

you know, you're worse
than the Perdi.

I want you
to follow the element.

Follow the senses I gave you.
I want to know what this is.

You're still here?

I am.

This is very unprofessional.

You come to my home, you do
this in front of my family.

They'll get over it.

Last time.
Who hired you to kill me?

I don't know who hired me.

I got paid. I did the job.

Obviously,
you didn't do the job,

- or you wouldn't
be sitting there.

-Where'd you get the money?
-It's not money, it's Bitcoin.

It's all done online.

Come on, man,
you know how this is done.

You're right, I do.

Sorry, ladies.

Lynn?

Lynn, what's going on?

She lied to me.

Who lied?

Dr. Jace.

She cooked the data
to make it look

like the pod kids
wouldn't have
any adverse reactions.

I let it happen.

We lost 14 lives, Jeff.

Brothers, sisters,
sons, daughters.

Fourteen kids died
and there was nothing
I could do about it.

All I could do was just...

stand there
and watch them die.

The person I'm representing
is offering to

relocate the clinic,
pay for a new building,

and take care
of all the associated costs.

It's a generous offer,
Reverend.

Yes, it is.

And we can definitely use
all the help we can get.

But?

But the person
you're representing
is Tobias Whale...

and that's a problem.

I don't know what he's got
on you, young brother,

but I'm gon' pray for you,

'cause you gon' need
all the help you can get

messing around with Tobias.

Look here.

Let me tell you a little bit
about your constituents.

You see, the black folk
here in Freeland,

we always knew
Tobias was still here.

And we always knew
Tobias was runnin'
The One Hundred.

And I knew it was him
and The One Hundred
that tried to kill me.

-Reverend Holt, if you just--
-Hold on now, listen to me.

If I'm wrong...

you can take that money
and buy your own clinic.

Name it after yo' mama
for all I care.

But you're not getting mine.
Understand?

Now, if I'm right,
and I know I am...

you can tell Tobias I said
he can keep his money...

and he can
kiss my holy ass.

You understand?

Good to see you.

This is why
I don't like hiring negroes.

You didn't hire me,
you're blackmailing me.

You better pray
that's all I do to you.

The reverend has a point.

What do you want with
that old building anyway?

Why don't you just
take your money
and build another clinic?

Are you trying to tell me
how to run my business?

No. Not at all.
It's just a suggestion.

I don't need suggestions,
I need results.

-Kill the reverend.
-I don't need to hear this.

Okay, boss.
Hey, let's slow down.

Look, killing the reverend
who you're trying to buy
a building from

might not be a good look.

I don't care how it looks.

It's the only building
on the block I don't own.

I thought
the real estate dude
was buyin' up all the land.

Is that what you thought?

He's just another
white face that I own.

So stop thinking,
you're not very good at it.

Just do what I tell you.

-Okay, but it might--
-No buts!

Hey, you want it to look good?

Pop that pimpy-ass preacher

and a few of his flock
right there in the church.

Wait, you... you want me
to kill people in church?

If that's what it takes.

That Christian clown
got away once.

Let's see if his God
will protect him again.

Wait.

Wait, the march that...

That was you?

Why're you flapping
your thick lips so much?

Is there a problem?

My mama goes to his church.

Aw. Your mama
goes to his church.

I'm not asking you
to kill yo' mama.

I'm telling you to kill

that sorry-ass
excuse of a preacher.

Hell, we'd be doing yo' mama
and the world a favor.

Bottom line, I don't care
how you gotta get it done,
just kill his ass!

Last night, there was
a catastrophic incident.

Unfortunately,
as a result of this incident,

14 of the individuals
who were being kept

in the stasis in the pods
have passed away.

In spite of our best efforts,
we were only able to save
14 of the patients

who were infected
with the original vaccine

and four of the patients
who were infected
with Green Light.

Please accept our...
My deepest sympathies.

Sharice Long, one of
the Green Light victims.

Is Sharice alive?

- Um...
- She's about 5" 2'.

Dimples when she smiles.

Unfortunately, I can't
answer that right now.

Why the hell not?
You can tell us 14 died,
but you can't tell us who?

We can have counselors
talk you through

the process of identifying
your family members.

I don't want no white people
telling me nothing
about my daughter.

I'm asking you, sister.

Y'all wouldn't be doing us
like this if we were white.

-This has nothing to do
with race.
-Is my daughter alive?

Is she alive? Is she alive?

Hey. You okay?

No. But I still
have work to do.

-Okay, I'll wait.
-No, no. It's okay.

You go home.
I'll finish up here.

And in world news,

after the mysterious death
of King Victor,

the war in Markovia rages on.

Factions loyal
to the royal family

fight against
insurmountable odds.

And in local news,

another incident
featuring the so-called
Green Light Babies...

Deputy Chief Henderson
and a team of snipers

arrived on the scene

using tranquilizer darts
to subdue the woman.

This marks
the seventh such incidence
in the last eight weeks.

So far, the authorities,

along with Black Lightning...

- There's a growing fear
within the Freeland community

that these Green Light babies
have become an epidemic

that even our meta-human
protectors

-might not be able to...
-What the hell?

I'm...

just looking for Anaya.

-What's your name, sweetheart?
-Anissa.

-How do you spell it?
-A-N-I-S-S-A.

French spelling
for an Arabic name,
which means "lovable."

What do you want
with our daughter, Anissa?

You're...
you're Anaya's parents?

I just want to help her.

My God.
Anaya, are you okay?

Okay, okay.

Of course she's okay.
How do you know
our daughter?

She came into the clinic
where I work.

Ma'am, I just wanna
make sure she's okay.

We appreciate your dedication,
but she's fine.

No, she's not.
She's in danger.

She's in danger.
What kind of danger?

I'm not sure, but...

Anaya, I'm sorry...

but Deacon is dead.

Deacon?

What's the matter, baby?

She's going into labor.
We need to get her to a bed.

Here, help her get to bed.
Help her.

It's okay, baby.
Mommy's right here.

Hey!

Is she alive?

Is she alive?

I'm sorry!
I don't know, I'm sorry.

Is she dead? Miss? Miss?
No, is she dead?

Please! Please! Miss! Miss!

Miss!

Miss!

Look, I know
you didn't come
all the way up here

just to sit next to me
and not say nothing.

Is that what we're doing now?

Khalil, what's wrong?

Tobias is the reason
why I was paralyzed.

What?

He was behind
the reverend getting shot.

God.

All this time I've been
blaming Black Lightning.

And now Tobias,
he wants me to
kill the reverend.

Khalil, why are you
still staying with him?

Jen, look at the choices
that I made.

It's not like I have
anywhere else to go.

- I'm sorry you have to deal
with all this alone.

Hey, we'll figure it out.

Yo, why are you even
giving me the time of day?

This whole Painkiller thing
is not you.

We've all been through a lot.

Plus, I don't want you to
make any more mistakes,

'cause you've made
some bad decisions this year.
Like, really bad.

I also made
some good ones, too.

Yeah? Like what?

All right, Anaya,
push for me one more time.

Anaya, push for me,
okay? Push!

Push, Anaya!

Yes! Push!

Push! Push for me!

You're doing pretty good.

Okay, okay. Okay.

-All right. Okay. Breathe.
-I'm right here, okay?

You did it. You did so good.

Okay, okay.

Hi. Hi, baby!

- What's wrong?
- I don't know. I don't know.

-What's wrong?
-I don't know. I don't know.

Is she all right?

She's still
having contractions!

My God!
She's having twins!

Anissa?

What are you doing?

Is that apple juice?

I'm not in the mood
for your smart little mouth,
little girl.

Sorry.

Those families
think I'm some kind of
government sellout.

Well, that's how people
looked at me in school.

"The Queen of Garfield."
And I hated it.

But I knew they were wrong.
So I just ignored 'em.

Maybe you should
do the same thing.

I wish it was that easy.

The baby is breech.
And it's stuck in
the back of the uterus.

I need you to apply pressure.
Right here.

-Okay.
-Just like this. Okay?

What the hell
are you doing?

What?

You and Dad
told me and Anissa

to always be honest
and take responsibility
for our actions.

Yeah.

And even though I didn't ask
for these powers,

it's still my responsibility
to control them, right?

What are you trying to say?

Okay,
if we're being honest,

it wasn't your fault
those kids died.

But technically, as the person
in charge of the facility,

it was your responsibility
to keep them safe.

So once again,

even though it was
not your fault that they died,

they kinda were
your responsibility.
You see what I'm saying?

Wow.

Well, thank you
for your honesty.

Wait, Mom.
Mom, that's not...

-You got it, baby! You got it!
-Breathe!

- That's my strong girl!
- Breathe! Breathe!

Breathe!

There you go,
there you go.

Okay.

Here's your baby. Okay.

You did it, Anaya.

No.

Joshua.

What did you do?

You killed Deacon?

She chose his pale ass
over me?

Me?

You've just started a war.

Whoa.

I could never let
half of those kids die,

even if I knew
it would save the other half.

When I look at them,
all I see is you and Anissa.

I know, Mom.

I would've tried to save
every single one of them.

If we could've found a way
to save 14 lives,

we could've found a way
to save all of them.

Every single life mattered.

Every single one.

It's a good night out here.

Ooh!

My Lord!

What the...

Hey!

If you don't leave Freeland
tonight, you are going to die.

Well, let me
tell you something, boy.

You better
take your hands off me...

before I beat your--

Okay?

You think you're
a gangster now?

I knew ya mama when she was
pregnant with you, boy.

Now, this ain't you, Khalil.
Now let me go.

You have to leave Freeland!

I ain't gotta do nothing
but stay black and die!

So you can walk now?

But you walking down
the wrong path, Khalil.

Come on, son.

All these things
you doing out here
in the streets

will tear your mother apart.

It's too late for me.

It's never too late.

Not for Jesus.

God will forgive you, Khalil.
You know he will.

I wish Deacon
could've met them.

I know it was too dangerous
for us to be together.

I just want them to be safe.

What is... What is Sange?

White folks with powers
who basically
terrorize South Freeland.

They call us the Perdi.

So they call black folks
out here Perdi?

Yeah. We lived with the whites
in South Freeland,

them on their side,
us in the woods,
since the end of slavery.

The Sange have been
running guns out
of South Freeland proper

for the last 30 years

while we've stayed
in the surrounding woods

and made money
off of the land.

So y'all really
live in the woods?

Yeah. We're farmers.
We grow organic fruits,
vegetables, hemp.

-Weed?
-That too.

There's a lady who
calls herself Looker.

My dad says
she came to town
about 30 years ago.

And she has this silver,
what she calls, element.

She used it to turn
the white folks into Sange.

Is that the stuff
that came out of Deacon?

And it's in the babies, too.

In my father's eyes,
having a baby by a Sange,

that's about the worst thing
I could do.

Yeah, but I'm sure
he'll come around.

No. This is serious, Anissa.

My father hates white people,
especially the Sange.

For as long as I can remember,
the Sange have hated us,

and the Perdi have hated them.

And now I'm having twins
with a Sange.

My father will
never forgive me.

I didn't get the reverend.

There were
too many people around.

I'll get him next time.

In the elite units
of the armed forces,

there's a theory of operations
called "unit cohesion."

According to this theory,
there's two types of cohesion.

There's tactical,
or task cohesion,
and social cohesion.

Tactical cohesion is defined
as a shared commitment

amongst a group
to achieve a goal,

while social cohesion
is how well the members
of that team get along.

Now, the key to this theory
is keeping a balance
between the two.

However, if one of
those components is
too far out of whack,

the team breaks down.

Well, unless
someone intercedes.

Truth be told,
I owe you an apology.

It's my fault you failed.

Seems our social cohesion
has surpassed our tactical.

The fact that
I'm fond of you has kept me

from interceding
and disciplining you
the way that I should.

And for that,
I am very sorry.

But I promise you.
You have my word, Khalil.

I won't ever
let it happen again.

I've been waiting
to beat your pasty ass.

You ain't as soft
as you look.

Get your ass up.

You all right, son?

Get your ass up.

You will kill Reverend Holt
and your mama!

You all right?

Or I will kill you!

You smart-ass.

One way or the other,
you gonna learn. Yeah.

You done broke
my damn fish tank.

Looker is much stronger
than anyone
under her control,

almost impossible to hurt.

If Looker knew Deacon
and I have children,

she will feel the same way
as my father.

Deacon used to say
if the Sange and Perdi
were to intermingle,

realize we have
more in common
than we don't,

it would threaten
her control over town.

He said most Sange
don't want the element.

Do you think she'll
come after the babies?

Yeah.

Okay, okay.
Now I just want you
to get some rest. All right?

You've been through a lot.
It's gonna be okay.

I know you're
in your feelings right now,

but we need to
get Anaya and those babies
out of the woods

and somewhere safe
where we can protect them.

Look, y'all are sitting here

with your old-ass ideas
about who should be with who,

but, you know, that's still
your daughter in there,

and black or white,
those are
still your grandbabies.

Now, you and Anaya
can work out your issues
after they're safe,

but there won't be
any issues to work out
if they all die.

Why do you care
what happens to this family?

Because I was raised that way.

If anything goes wrong,
we split up
and meet at the farmhouse.

Each group is responsible

for getting one of
the babies to Freeland.
Understand?

Copy.

Took you long enough.

We're gonna talk about this
later, young lady.

The new
Park Street library
is going to be open...

- Come on, we gotta go!
- Get in, let's go!

Look out! Behind you!

-Where's your parents?
-They haven't
made it back yet.

-None of them have.
-The baby?

I've got Anaya and the baby

and we're headed for Freeland.

I found something.
- What?

Dad, what's going on?

There's a lot of dead bodies.

What about the baby?

I don't see her.

What about the grandparents?
Her dad has grey locks,

and her mom has
short hair like Mom.

I don't see them either.

There's something here...

a silver liquid...

-that's moving on its own.
-I think it's from Looker.

Wait. What is that?

This woman that
the babies' mother, Anaya,
told me about.

Now, Anaya says that
this silver liquid
is like a part of Looker

and she can put it inside of
people and make them Sange.

Make them what?

Sange.

Like her slaves, basically.

She also said
that this element,

it gives the Sange
more speed and strength
than regular folks.

Sounds like a meta.

Anaya said she showed up
in South Freeland
about 30 years ago.

Thirty years ago?

So she might be one of
the original kids
infected by the vaccine.

So she's just like you.

What? No. I wouldn't say
just like me, but yeah.

Wow.

Sounds like I may not be
the only vaccine kid
who's been out and about.

All right, Dad, look.
According to Anaya,

this silver liquid
always returns to Looker.

Now, if that's true,
you should be able
to follow it back to her

and hopefully find the grandparents and the baby.

This is some weird stuff.

I know.

Okay, get Anaya
and the other baby
to safety.

- Anissa?
- Yeah?

Good job.

If you hadn't
shown up tonight,

a lot more people
would be dead,

including those babies.

Thanks, Dad. Hey, Dad?

-Yeah.
-Be careful.

Yeah, always.

What're you doing down there?

Nothing.
I just wanted to hear your voice.

Okay. Well, you didn't
have to come
all the way here for that.

Why are you acting so weird?
You okay?

Yeah.
Yeah, I'm fine.

Khalil, come up here
so I can see you.

Nah, I'm good down here.

All right, boy, if you don't
stop playing with me,

I'm going back inside
and I'm hanging up.

Wait, wait. Don't do that.

Then come up here.

Wait. You...

What happened?

Reverend Holt
won't leave Freeland.

Jen, I'm not Tobias.

I am not a killer.
That's not me.

No, I know. I know.

I appreciate everything
that you've done for me.

Wait, why are you talking like
I'm not gonna see you again?

-Look at you--
-No.

What the hell am I supposed to
do with this thing?

A Sange been lying
with a Perdi?

Who?

Where's Deacon?

One of the Perdi found out
the girl had a baby
by one of us.

Killed him. Tried to make it
look like we did it.

Lie down with the Perdi,
die like the Perdi?

There's another baby.
A white baby.

Find it.
