Life is a series of moments
where every thought, every word,
and every action ripples
throughout eternity.
Love knows no boundaries.
There is a battle between
the light and the darkness
that rages for each soul.
The gift of life
stands before you,
and one day, the light
will reveal all things.
Jonah?
Jonah?
Jonah, no!
Jonah!
There was a big battle
on the senate floor yesterday
as freshman senator,
Jonah Thomas,
the rising star in the Senate,
vehemently opposed
Senator Rushton's tax increase
stating that raising taxes
on the already over-burdened
American family
was like a declaration
of war against its citizens.
Here's more from Senator Thomas.
Well, the American citizens
won a small victory today.
If my colleagues in the Senate
actually had the guts
and the integrity
to truly represent the
interests of the people
and not their own,
we'd be well on our way
to makin' this country
great again.
Senator Rushton
is not one to give in easily,
stating that his proposal
would help stimulate
the US economy.
He is on a mission.
I want him out of the picture.
It's got teeth.
There's no way they can
prove it's not true.
Just give me a day
to set it in motion.
Make it happen this afternoon.
I think Senator Rushton's
gonna come after me.
Hey, Pam.
This better be good, Winston.
You know I don't like
to be bothered
when I'm out here.
Thought you might like to know
that your hunch was correct.
Baker's office
has been in contact
with this woman for months.
Jane Isner.
Now she's Richards'
new personal assistant.
She's Baker's insider.
How'd you make the connection?
Called in a few favors.
All strictly legal.
Um... Every path to Baker
is a dead end.
Baker used to be FBI
before he became a senator.
He knows all the methods,
but I have a secret weapon.
-What's that?
-You.
But I'm just a consultant.
Exactly, you're not really FBI.
Keep fishing.
I wanna know how Baker
fits in to all of this.
What do we use as bait?
I've got a team
going after Richards.
He's having a secret meeting
about his vaccine bill today.
Dirty money and everything.
Why haven't they taken any steps
to balance the budget?
Our national debt is
spiraling out of control.
Today was an unfortunate
setback.
I'm fighting for
the little guy here.
This battle is sure to continue,
but most would agree round one
goes to Senator Thomas.
- Yeah, everything looks great.
- The numbers look great.
Yeah, well, the lawyers
have to approve everything
but we need to get together.
The FBI doesn't know
about the second vaccine.
I'll make sure it
stays that way.
Okay.
Senator Baker?
Sir?
It's going down this morning.
Sanders
is really focused on this one.
The pressure's high.
-You wanna come along?
-I'm hunting big game today.
Bigger game than
three US senators?
I'm expecting a briefing
at four.
I'll see you at four.
Happy hunting.
The cancer vaccine
stops or cures 99 percent.
Your father happens
to fall in the 1 percent.
You have no idea
how much suffering
my father has gone through
because of their so called
cancer-curing vaccine.
We should talk later
when cooler heads prevail.
I'm giving you the opportunity
to be the hero.
10 million is pocket change
in comparison to the windfall
they're about to have.
How do I know you'll hand over
all the data on the vaccine?
How can I trust you?
Trust.
Trust goes both ways.
This needs to happen today.
Even they don't have that
kind of money sitting around.
Besides, they haven't passed
the bill yet.
It'll pass.
I'll bring all the data
and we'll all sign
the papers together.
Deal?
We have a deal.
They have a meeting at the
Artisan penthouse around 11.
Senator Williams
likes the chefs,
so they'll have a late lunch.
Be there at 1:30, no sooner.
I'll be there.
The hotel is closed
for renovations.
I'll leave a message
at the front desk
for you to be escorted
to the penthouse.
If I sense that
there's any trouble,
I'll leave and release
the information.
Understood?
Understood.
What if they release the data?
How do you think they got
the data in the first place?
Our vaccine is perfect.
Senator Richards' vaccine
is flawed.
It's terribly flawed
and we've got to do
something about it.
Just keep us up to date
on all the details.
Will do.
Thank you, gentlemen.
You called it.
They're meeting
at the Artisan today.
They should be
the only ones there.
No civilian casualties.
You don't have to go.
I can do it myself.
Dad, there's no turning back.
I'm the one that convinced you
to take it in the first place
because they guaranteed me
it would work.
Look,
I want them to pay
just as much as you do.
Senator McLuster talked about
the possible human
suffering from the vaccine
as a risk-versus-reward scenario
as if he were talking
about sacks of potatoes.
They're getting off easy
as far as I'm concerned.
You're gonna have to
finish the last two.
Well, if it looks,
talks, and walks
like a duck, it's a duck.
In this case, it's a pig.
What? Today?
Hold on.
Yeah, well, what time?
Two o'clock?
Yeah, no problem.
I don't have anything
important scheduled at two.
I can make that, no problem.
Yeah, well that's what I
was trying to tell you.
It just makes sense.
I mean, we gotta hold
these people accountable.
Sorry
for the impromptu gathering,
but we've had
some important meetings
come up this morning.
I was able to push back
the retool meeting
to ten o'clock,
and I just heard you
snagged a two o'clock
-on the pure water project?
-Mm-hm.
I thought
that would never happen.
You said you were gonna go
to Chloe's tennis
match at two today.
I have been trying
to arrange this meeting
for the last three months.
Who knows when I'll get
another opportunity.
There'll be other
tennis matches.
What's next?
Your speech and victory
on the Senate floor
turned a lot of heads,
including the Martins.
They wanna have the family
over for dinner
tonight at their place
about seven.
They raised six figures
for Congressman Gidell,
and they don't even like him.
This should get us closer
to our financial goals.
How's that sound?
Sounds like we're gonna miss
another family night.
We'll be there.
All right, I'll let them know
you're coming.
And I'll see you
back at the office.
Just trust me this one time.
I really, really feel strongly
about you not going
to work today.
Is that all you're worried about
is another dream?
It was more than a dream.
It was like a vision,
and it has something to do
with some senators
meeting with you at a hotel--
Well, there you go.
Mitch just went
over our itinerary.
Don't have any
meetings at a hotel.
Nothin' to worry about.
Just-- Please.
Just do it for me then.
We've been talking about going
to see your mother,
so let's go today.
I can't.
She's in a coma.
What good would it do anyway?
We'll talk about this tonight.
She's leaving us.
Get the defibrillator.
What happened?
She's stable.
Get a technician
to check out the equipment.
Yes, ma'am.
We'll let her rest.
Be strong, faithful warrior.
Your prayers are
about to be answered.
Chloe, come on, babe.
We're late for school.
Mitch, what is it?
I didn't wanna say
anything in front of Aubrey,
but I ran into
an old friend yesterday
that works with Senator Rushton.
Rushton wants blood.
My friend shared
confidential information
on how Rushton and his friends
took out Senator Gibson
five years ago.
The guy
with the insurance scandal?
Well, they found him innocent.
Sure, but the scandal
and other obstacles
of their creation
put a huge blemish
on his political record.
He never recovered.
He lost his senate bid,
lost everything.
They're gonna start
putting pressure
on your financial backers
to drop you
while they look for skeletons
in the closet.
And when they don't find any,
they're gonna make them up.
So you're saying
my political career is over.
It's over as you know it.
-You probably won't get
a second term unless--
-Unless I compromise.
They wanna meet
with you at four.
Stall them.
Let me think about it.
Okay, I'll see you.
We're gonna have to calibrate
the bombs on site.
I'll show you how to do it.
What's the matter?
What if something goes wrong?
We should send the data
to the press now.
We do not let go of
our ace in the hand
-until it's over.
-Until it's over.
Besides, we should be able
to handle a few senators.
You had German food last night.
I thought you hated German food.
-Katie loves it.
-Here we go with this again.
Things are
different this time, okay?
-Right, right.
-Yeah. Third time's a charm.
You guys are ridiculous,
you know that?
Testing, one, two, three.
Are we good?
We're all out of options.
I've got a friend
going over new research
on your mother's condition.
In all honesty,
it doesn't look promising.
-How much time does she have?
-A week, at best.
I'll keep you posted
if her condition changes.
Thanks.
- I've been praying for you.
- Please, Mom.
But my prayers
have been different.
You don't believe,
and I want that for you
more than anything.
I've heard it all before.
I'm gonna be just fine.
Are you?
Jonah,
I'm going home soon.
What do you mean?
I didn't wanna tell you
unless I knew for sure,
but the doctor says
I have pancreatic cancer.
How long do you have?
Two, maybe... maybe four months.
But I'm ready.
Why do you still believe?
Especially now.
Because without God,
life just doesn't make
any sense.
I don't know if you can hear me.
Oh, I miss you.
I need you now more than ever.
Did you finish
that Amherst report?
No, I didn't, I'm sorry.
I'll finish it this afternoon.
Jackie,
the meeting is this Thursday.
I need time to prepare.
All right.
I won't let it happen again.
Senator Richards
on your right.
Ah, speak of the devil.
Meet you guys back
at the office.
Senator Richards.
We were just talking about you.
Senator, how are you?
Good morning.
This is my assistant,
Jane Isner.
Jane, this is--
The elusive
Senator Jonah Thomas.
I'm a huge fan.
Really? How's that?
You speak what's on your mind,
shake things up a bit.
It's a rare trait in DC.
Well, you're too kind.
How can I help you, Senator?
I just need a minute.
I'll let you two chat.
I've gotta make a quick call.
Look, I'm just askin'
for one hour.
-Well, I'm just sayin' no.
-You're new around here.
You could use some friends.
And more importantly, you
don't want some more enemies--
- Senator Rushton.
- There's one for you.
I know Rushton's trying
to get over on ya,
but if you come,
that little meeting
you're supposed to have at four,
problem solved.
So you'll handle Rushton if
I come to your little meeting?
Eleven o'clock.
It'll be private.
Senators McLuster
and Williams will be joining us.
All you have to do
is hear us out.
Williams?
I know you two
have been butting heads.
Richards is putting pressure
on Senator Thomas
to back their cancer vaccine
instead of yours.
If he backs
Richards' vaccine bill,
Jonah will step
right in the middle
of your war with Richards.
That's unfortunate.
We need him on our side.
What do you want me to do?
Talk him out of it?
He's a good guy.
Someone should warn him.
No, it's too late now.
Look, let's just see how this
thing plays out, all right?
Maybe he won't join them.
One hour is all I'm askin'.
One hour.
One hour, excellent.
Look, I have got to run.
Jane will brief you
on the meeting.
It's good to see you, Senator.
He can be persistent.
That's more like annoying.
There you go,
speaking your mind again.
Well, the meeting is at 11
at the Artisan Grand.
You know, if you'd like
I can swing by and pick you up.
Thanks, but I think
I'm gonna go it alone.
One never knows when
a quick exit might be in order.
Well, if you change your mind.
Or if you ever wanna
grab a cup of coffee,
compare notes, give me a call.
Gentlemen, let me
remind you of something.
These men are United States
senators.
That means
this must go by the book.
The hotel's been
undergoing renovation
so this floor
is still sealed off.
Does anybody have any questions?
All right,
let's lock it up tight.
Your guy's not gonna budge
from his convictions.
You're too late.
It's as good as done.
Leave Senator Thomas alone.
So where's my camera
in the hallway?
I'm on it.
I'm sorry to cut this short.
-I appreciate your time.
-Thank you.
-Been a pleasure.
-Thank you.
Hey guys,
I'll be right with you, okay?
Jonah.
What did you do?
What are you talking about?
Rushton canceled
the four o'clock.
They're backing off.
Well, hopefully
it's nothin' I'm gonna regret.
Don't go.
There is another way.
Hey!
Wait.
Why do I
listen to your bad ideas?
Ah, don't worry,
he's not gonna show.
It's a darn good idea,
and yeah, he's gonna show.
- Be sure of that.
- We have a mystery guest.
Life is short.
Have a pastry.
Don't worry,
it was just a bad dream.
Jonah, I am serious.
Is there anything else?
I'm gonna be late
for an appointment.
Chloe and I are spending
some time together,
and we'll be ready
for dinner at six.
All right, sounds good.
Love you.
All right, I love you too.
You wanted to see me?
You're not going to the wire
tapper at the Artisan?
Parker's heading it.
He's the best.
No need to get in the way.
What's the real reason?
Senator Baker.
We've been watching him
for almost three years,
ever since the informant
gave us a lead on him.
He's close to his goal.
Now Baker's office tips us off
on pals he's in bed with?
I find that a point of interest.
What did you find?
Stories from his
staff aren't adding up.
Phone records and correspondence
verify my suspicions.
So you think Baker's settin' up
his old friends for a fall?
I'm close to finding a motive.
Okay.
Keep on the trail.
Keep me in the loop.
He's got some powerful friends.
Here we go.
Zoom in, let's get an ID.
That's Senator Thomas.
Thanks for coming.
We know how valuable
your time is,
so we'll try to be brief.
Gentlemen, if you'll excuse us.
-Thank you, sir.
-You bet.
You know Senators
McLuster, Williams.
Please.
Two dollar tip.
That's criminal.
Hey Travis, why don't you
take Katie out?
All right, people,
let's stay focused.
Why the long faces?
Thought we voted to raise
our salaries this year.
-This is a mistake.
-Hey, take it easy.
Sit down, Williams.
Look, we know
you're on the fence
about the Blackburn
Medical Reform Bill,
and we need your support
to move it forward,
to get it passed.
Well, what about Bennett?
He's more inclined to go
your way.
Bennett couldn't convince a man
dying of thirst
to drink a cup of water. No.
Besides, people trust you.
You proved that yesterday.
Washington's
a pretty tough town.
We play by a different set
of rules
and you're gonna need
an ally to survive.
Right now, we need you
and we're willing
to make you an offer.
We can help you get your feet
on solid ground.
You're drowning
in a sea of debt.
We can save you.
You're gonna have to do it.
Hit send.
That'll set the bombs.
Gentlemen,
thanks for your time
but I'm gonna take my chances
out there on my own.
Whoa, whoa.
I think we've, at least,
earned the right
to be heard here.
What we're proposing
is a win-win situation
for everyone, including you.
There's no harm in listening.
All right, let's get going.
We don't have much time.
Dad? Dad, what's wrong?
Get the phone.
Rewind that.
There's a camera on the wall
that wasn't there before.
Look straight ahead, walk.
Stop.
We got two gunmen
in the hallway!
Gilman, Travis, take 'em now!
Freeze!
-FBI!
-Hands, hands where
I can see 'em!
- Wait.
- FBI!
Bring 'em around,
bring 'em around.
Put your hands behind your head.
Hey, what's goin' on here?
Hands behind your head, buddy.
Right there, put 'em back.
Put 'em back.
Hands, hands where
I can see 'em.
On your knees!
Get down.
-What have you done?
-I don't know.
I didn't do anything.
He's got somethin'
in his hand. You see it?
Down on three, two, one.
[PORTAL WHOOSHES
Peace.
Be still.
Am I dead?
One could say that
you never lived.
-What?
-No.
You are not dead.
We are in the spiritual realm
of the world you know.
There was an explosion that...
How'd I get here?
It took more than
you can imagine
to bring you here.
We tried to warn you.
Am I dreaming?
No, this world is more real
than the one you know.
Well, who are you?
I am Gabriel.
The angel?
And you thought
I was just a myth.
Once they form the barrier,
we cannot escape.
The enemy is in force.
I do not know how
much time we have
as we are in the thick
of a great battle.
Battle, what battle?
I am here to open
your eyes to the truth.
This battle... is for your soul.
They are like hungry lions
out to devour anyone they can.
What are you talkin' about?
They are the enemy,
followers of the fallen star,
Satan.
Do not be deceived.
They are superior
in intelligence, clever,
and can take on any form.
Do you want to know the truth?
Then take my hand.
-Who are they?
-Friends.
I-- I can't move.
We gotta go.
Come on.
I could be dead right now.
Did you have anything
to do with this?
It was a wiretap. That's all--
You were wiretapping the room?
When were you gonna fill me
in on that?
Look, let's get together.
I can clear this up.
None of those men
deserved to die.
Jane, listen to me.
Jane. Jane?
Breaching FBI database.
This is the reckoning pool.
It represents the
words, thoughts,
and actions of anyone
that has ever lived,
and lives today.
Follow me.
You can trust me.
Is this really water?
Yes.
Look closely.
Didn't I tell you not
to play in the garage?
I'm sorry, Dad,
I didn't mean to.
Please, I'm sorry.
There was 200 dollars' worth
of paint and supplies.
Dad.
You are absolutely worthless,
you know that?
Who's gonna pay
for all this, you?
Worthless.
Each word and action,
both good and bad,
ripples throughout eternity.
Your father never knew
how his rage would
affect your life
and the lives of countless
others, including his own.
I could never please my father,
no matter how hard I tried.
But that's not true.
Your father loved you very much.
He even bragged about you
to friends and loved ones.
He just never knew
how to show his love.
I have revealed this to you
so you can remember the
pain of ill-chosen words.
I vowed to never treat
my daughter that way.
But you have, even today.
What? Today?
Hold on. Well, what time?
Two o'clock?
Yeah, no problem.
I don't have anything
important scheduled at two.
I can make that, no problem.
He always lies to me,
and he doesn't care
about anything I do.
I wish he were dead.
You're okay.
Come on, I got ya.
I got ya, come on, let's go.
I need a phone.
Come on.
Quiet.
Gilman to Parker.
-Yeah, Gilman, come in.
-Travis is dead.
In pursuit of suspects
at north end of stairwell.
Suspects are entering
the 48th floor.
Roger, Gilman, 48th floor.
We copy.
Okay, Mills is gonna cover
the south stairwell.
Do not pursue
until he's in position.
Acknowledge.
Come on.
This way.
FBI Database accessed.
I'm impressed.
- How did you do this?
- Do what?
Firewall breached.
Bobby, I'm getting
a delayed transmission.
Pull this up on your screen.
I wanna trace the source on it.
I want to show you something.
I've seen enough.
I notice how people
gravitate towards you.
You're a natural leader.
Your mom and I have decided
to send you to a special
leadership training camp
for a couple weeks.
They don't take just anybody,
but after talking to them
they've decided to take you.
Son, you have a wonderful gift.
You need to learn how to use it.
That was one of the best days
of my life,
one of the few times
my father made me feel special.
Those words and actions
pushed your life in
a positive direction.
So all my words and actions
are stored here?
Everyone that has ever lived,
who lives today.
Nothing is hidden,
and one day all things
will be revealed.
Time in your world is but
a vapor in the eyes of eternity.
Your kind chase after shadows,
selfish ambition.
It's meaningless
in the eyes of God.
There's been a huge explosion.
We need immediate backup
and medical assistance.
Suspects are on the 48th floor.
Agents Gilman and Mills
in pursuit.
Secure the floor
and lock down the hotel.
Backup is on the way.
System security
has been breached.
Okay, hello.
How did you get in?
Give me that source. You got it?
-Hey, buddy.
-Hello, Colt.
If you're watching--
if you're watching this,
I'm probably dead.
I just sent over the package
with the data
I've been collecting
for the last couple months
of the so called cancer vaccine.
Just make sure the information
gets out.
It's important
that people see this.
All right, buddy.
See ya some other time.
Colt, what did you do?
Dad. Dad!
I can make it.
-We have to go back.
-Why?
If we're still alive,
they might still be alive.
I wanna die knowing
that I finished the job.
Look closely.
This morning, Senator Williams
made his last adjustments
to his financial portfolio.
He accumulated more wealth
than most people
could ever imagine,
some honestly, and some
through ill-gotten gains.
But he was very generous.
But God knows the motives
and actions of the heart.
Williams, like many,
hoped in the end
that his good deeds
would cover his sins
and buy his way into heaven.
Senator Richards
took a different path
to fulfill his
desire for purpose,
the lusts of the flesh.
Straight.
Sin has
its season of pleasure,
but there is always a price.
Richards needed the deal
to pay off the hush money
for his many transgressions.
Power
was Senator McLuster's path.
He wanted it over
his constituents.
He wanted power over
his fellow senators.
- I got that.
- You got it?
He wanted power
over the nation.
Like most, they never sought God
for their true purpose.
They missed out on the path
that God prepared for them.
Now they will stand before Him
and give an account
for their lives.
McLuster's dead.
I promise you,
I'm gonna finish this.
Where are the senators now?
Are you sayin' they're dead?
I will show you in due time.
Do you recognize anyone?
No, should I?
Aren't you supposed to be a man
of the people?
Well, how can you expect me
to know any of these people?
Do you know
your next door neighbor?
Yeah.
Clayton and Martha.
Really?
When's the last time
you spoke with Clayton?
If your son pleads guilty,
the state has agreed to give him
two years in jail plus rehab.
He's only 19.
We are paying
you a ton of money
because we heard
you were the best,
that you could get
our son out of this mess,
and now you're telling us
you can't get him
probation and rehab?
He broke an officer's jaw
during the arrest
and he was in
possession of a handgun.
That changes everything.
Two years is a gift,
especially with this judge.
Martha.
You've been
extremely hard on Jackie,
even wondering how you
could replace her with Jane,
who you met just this morning.
Jackie has been faithful to you.
She does the work
of two staff members
even though you promised
to lighten the load.
Did you know that her husband
left her and their son?
Her dreams of love, shattered.
She wonders how she's going
to raise her son
and pay the bills.
Aubrey is wondering
the same thing of you.
She feels alone,
as if you've already left her.
She thought you were
going to be there for her
-as a husband...
-I need some time to think.
...and a father.
I know that Aubrey
and Chloe are having
a tough time right now.
The first two years are
the hardest on the Hill.
What are you, judging me?
Unfortunately,
my responsibilities
to help people
take a lot of my time.
I'm just trying to open
your eyes to the truth.
Your wife knew
you were in a hurry
so she took the liberty
of ordering your favorite.
Sorry, honey, I
had to take a call.
Good news, we can celebrate
the passing of the Baker
Medical Reform Bill in style.
I've made reservations
at our favorite place in Aspen.
Are you okay?
Where is Aubrey and Chloe?
They're in Austin.
Sorry I'm late.
The traffic was heavy.
- She's responsive?
- It took a small miracle.
She's weak, but she's...
she's improving.
She's not out of the woods
but her vitals are improving.
I'll give you some time alone.
Try not to keep her up too long.
Grandma!
Hi.
Oh, thank God you're back!
Thank God.
I'm happy to see my girls.
Mom, I think Jonah's
having a relapse
from the explosion.
The doctor said
he may experience
some forms of amnesia.
Honey, you're gonna be fine.
I'm gonna give the
doctor a quick call.
I'll just be a second.
Uh...
I am so glad you found Jane.
Divorcing Aubrey
was the right thing to do.
She was just too demanding.
This one is your true soul mate.
I thought you loved Aubrey
and were against divorce.
Well, I've learned
from recent experience
that God wants us to be happy.
He wants us to live
life to the fullest.
Jane and the Medical Reform Bill
has allowed you
to truly be happy.
Jonah, it's the demon!
Gabriel.
Daegon.
Yes, my prince.
We need more reinforcements.
Don't let Gabriel break
our defenses again.
Track them.
What just happened?
That was not your mother.
It was Magog, a powerful demon
among the enemy.
They seemed so real.
The enemy presented a lie
that could one day be real.
No.
No, I would never leave my wife
and daughter for her,
or for anyone for that matter.
You've already succumbed to
the temptations in your heart.
The truth can reveal
the darkest parts of one's life,
things you don't wanna
believe about yourself.
-So you can read my thoughts?
-No.
Our abilities are limited.
However, God has no limits
and He's allowed me
a glimpse of your heart.
All right, I might be tempted,
but I would never leave my wife.
Your confidence betrays you.
The enemy will take
you down a path
that will leave
your life in ruins
and one step closer
to accomplishing their mission.
And what would that be?
To destroy your marriage,
your life,
and as many lives as they can.
No.
I...
I don't know how to explain it.
I think that Jonah is
in some kind of trouble.
He is.
May be concerned
for their loved ones
working at the hotel,
but they are keeping us updated
-on the situation.
-He's there.
Once again,
police now believe
that both explosions
were deliberate
and they have confirmed
that there were people
on the floors where
the explosions occurred.
- Oh no!
We don't know
if there are any injuries...
It's my fault, isn't it?
Oh no.
I didn't mean to say
that I wanted Dad to die.
Honey, I know you didn't.
And God knows you
didn't mean it.
...all the streets within a mile
of the hotel,
and only authorized personnel
are allowed near and in
the building at this time--
I gotta go.
Aubrey, Aubrey.
It won't do any good.
But this had something
to do with my dream.
There's gotta be a reason.
God sent the dream
to warn Jonah.
The battle he's facing
isn't against flesh and blood.
I am not a part of your war.
How do I know that
you're not lying?
'Cause you still know
in your heart
that the path the enemy
has presented to you
would leave your life in misery.
Love sees you
as something beautiful,
a prize worthy of dying for.
Run!
He's alive.
Wha...
What was that?
Grena--
You all right?
You still with us?
I heard ever since
that explosion
you have trouble
concentrating now and then.
Would you like a drink?
No. No, thank you.
Well, you sure look
like you could use one.
That explosion
was a terrible tragedy.
I didn't know that you were
in that little meeting
there with Senator Richards.
To be truthful, you got greedy.
Started maneuvering
behind my back.
I had to make arrangements.
You were behind the bombing?
No, no, my plan was get
the FBI to investigate 'em,
expose him, get
him out of office,
get him outta my hair.
But as fate would have it,
those two lunatics...
well, as they say,
it's an ill wind
that doesn't blow
somebody some good.
You were just in the wrong place
at the wrong time.
Senator Richards was wise
to bring you in on
his little deal.
People like you.
You get things done.
Nobody would have suspected
a thing.
I listened
to those FBI wire tapes.
You didn't have a chance
to join them.
But you can join me.
My plan
may seem a little bit radical
in that it mandates
certain advances,
one being that the vaccine
is clinically proven
to eradicate cancer.
Your mother has cancer,
doesn't she?
No more deaths from cancer.
Not to mention the billions,
and billions of dollars
we would save
the American public.
My guess is you get a cut
of each vaccine.
If you help me,
I will personally see to it
that you move up in class.
I'm talkin' about real power,
real wealth.
What do you want me to do?
Nothin' that nobody else
wouldn't do,
or hasn't done, for that matter.
Sounds like you want me
to break the law.
Just look the other way.
All your problems
will be behind you
and the good life
in front of you.
Do you believe in God, senator?
God?
Look, our scientists have proven
beyond a doubt that
now in this day and age
we have no need for a god.
Now that's a fact.
You can bank on that.
But I do believe
in positive energy
bringing two people together,
you and me here together today
to do something
for the good of mankind.
Hm?
You have a chance to be a hero
in this brave new world.
What is going on?
I want some answers.
They are searching
for each weakness in your heart
so they can tempt you
into helping sign
Baker's Medical Reform Bill,
which will require the people
to take the vaccine.
The vaccine only appears
to work for a few months
and then the cancer will
return with a vengeance,
killing thousands, and millions
upon millions of people
will suffer a pain
beyond human comprehension,
a pain that cannot be stopped.
If that's true, why didn't you
tell me that earlier?
It is my hope that one day
you won't need me to
tell you anything,
that you'll be guided
by the greatest of powers.
What power?
Let me show you.
Hey Pam.
Keep this within the agency.
Don't talk to anyone
on the outside
without passing it by me first,
is that clear?
All right.
Got somethin' you have to see.
An old friend
of mine, Colt Lesher,
is behind the bombing.
Actually, the best
that we can determine
is that Colt and his father,
they ran into our agents
in the lobby of the hotel.
Forcing them to prematurely
detonate the bomb
using a cell phone,
and at the same time
sending me a ton of data.
So what's in the data?
Actually,
some pretty damning evidence
against the Blackburn
Medical Reform Bill.
The bill that Requires everyone
to take a cancer vaccine.
Known in the medical
world as RZZ989.
It's getting tons of buzz
in the medical journals.
Baker was on to them.
Oh, he was more than on to them.
Baker's been gearing up
a cancer vaccine of his own.
Richards' group
is Baker's competition.
Baker was using our wire tap
to clear the playing field.
But if the reaction
is that painful,
how is Colt's father
even able to walk?
Ex-Navy SEAL.
Toughest guy I ever met.
Each day, thousands
and thousands of people
from all over the world,
from all races,
from all walks of life,
they were born into
the bondage of sin
which they cannot
break free from on their own.
They can neither see,
nor feel their shackle
because the Evil One
has placed a veil
over their eyes,
blinding them from the truth,
the truth that loves them
and longs to set them free.
There are many that
have surrendered
to the light of this world,
the light of Jesus that
leads you beyond the darkness
that can open their eyes
to the truth.
A light that can free them
from the shackles of sin
and give them the
gift of eternal life.
God is about relationships.
He wants us to walk in His light
and know His love
so that we can truly
love Him and others.
So what about those people
who die without
accepting His love?
God sends 'em to hell?
What kind of a love is that?
But why would
Colt and his father
want to kill Richards
and the other senators?
And where did
he get all that data?
Short version, Colt's father
has stage-4 bone cancer.
Freid Pharmaceuticals
creates RZZ.
Colt's a big-time at Freid,
so he finagles a sample
of the vaccine for his dad
and it lives up to the hype.
He's cancer-free in three weeks.
Four months later,
the cancer came back.
Colt hacked his way
into the research
department's database...
discovered a major coverup
by Senators Hear-No-Evil,
See-No-Evil,
and Speak-Plenty-Of-Evil.
The vaccine slash drug,
it works miracles
in 95 percent of test groups.
In the remaining 5 percent,
the cancer growth slows
but somehow
their central nervous system
comes completely under attack.
Imagine third-degree burns
all over your body
with no sign of relief.
It literally
was driving patients insane.
What else have you got?
Apparently, our senators
falsified the data.
Millions of lives
could be at risk.
It is appointed
for all to die once
and then receive judgment.
That includes you.
Each person, great and small,
will stand before God.
Their words, thoughts,
and deeds will be judged.
Everyone whose name
is not in the Book of Life
will be cast
into the lake of fire.
Help us!
Please!
Help us!
Do something!
Why aren't you helping them?
They've sealed their own fate.
There's nothing
we can do for them now.
I can feel the pain, and agony.
You were allowed to experience
a mere fraction
of their eternal torment.
So this loving
God created a hell?
Why doesn't God do anything
about the evil and the suffering
in the world?
If He truly cares,
if He is a God of love
he would've done
something by now!
He hasn't done anything!
You were allowed
to feel an ounce
of Love's agony, rejection,
and pain at the cross.
Jesus paid the great price
for the sins of this world,
your sins,
so that whosoever believes
in Him
shall not perish,
but will have everlasting life.
The question you should be
asking yourself is...
why would anyone
reject the love of Jesus?
Run! They're coming!
Jonah, behind you!
No!
Jonah,
my son.
Mother?
The best thing
that we can do for Jonah
is to pray.
Dear heavenly Father,
please protect Jonah.
We know that he is
in grave danger,
but we also know
that You are stronger
than anything that he can face.
Colt's father
only has a month to live.
That vaccine is brutal.
Does Baker's vaccine even work?
That's just it, we don't know.
I mean, Colt was digging.
How come
Colt didn't come to you first,
let us deal with it?
According to the notes,
Colt and his father thought
the senators were just
gonna get a slap on the wrist.
They wanted revenge.
It's the lap dog.
There is no escape.
Why are you so interested
in this one?
The question is, why do you
bother with any of them?
They're weak, unfaithful,
so easy to deceive.
And yet He favors them more
than me, more than you.
It is you that is unfaithful,
and so easily deceived
to believe
that you and your master
could defeat God.
Love for them,
that's His weakness.
And that is why we
will be victorious in the end.
You can still join us,
my brother.
Still under the deception
that you're going to win,
liars believing the lie.
If you change your mind,
call out my name.
Maybe I'll come and save you.
Now I've got a war to win.
Finish him.
With pleasure.
My son.
You look so young.
We are ageless in this world.
Why are you troubled?
I've seen so many things.
I, too, have seen many wonders
since I've been here.
It's like my eyes
have been opened
for the first time.
What do you mean?
I was closed-minded before.
I now know that hell was a myth
created by a man
to control men through fear.
God is love.
He forgives all.
You're free to choose
your own path
at your own will.
So you no longer
believe in Jesus?
I'm afraid that my time
in this world
is coming to an end.
I can hear heaven's call.
Let's experience heaven
together.
No.
No. I saw the cross.
Yet you still question,
as you should.
You don't believe.
Leave him!
Call upon Prince Magog's name
and you will be spared.
Last chance!
Never!
What's happening?
They're creating a barrier.
They're coming.
What's this?
Your sins.
You're dying.
They're here.
I'll find you
on the other side of the river.
Oh, dear Lord...
use this time to
open up his eyes,
to have him accept
the gift of life
through Jesus Christ, Your Son.
No!
You're worthless!
You know
you don't deserve mercy,
and you're never gonna get it.
You're a miserable father
and a terrible husband!
Your father's right.
You're worthless.
I know you don't love me.
You always lie to me.
I am here to open
your eyes to the truth,
the truth that
will set you free.
You were never there for me.
I wish you were never born.
Love sees you as
something beautiful,
a prize worthy of dying for.
We deserve better.
I hate you!
Jesus paid the great price
for the sins of this world,
your sins.
You know you don't deserve mercy
and you're never gonna get it.
Your father's right.
You are worthless.
God,
please help me.
I know I don't deserve
Your love.
Jesus.
Forgive my sins.
I give my life to You.
Why did I wait so long?
Come with me,
child of the living God.
My leg.
Your leg will never recover
in your world.
But know that
you are born again,
and that you have new life.
Chloe, get the doctor.
No.
It's gonna be okay.
It's time.
Not now.
Grandma, please.
Just don't lose faith,
no matter how hard life gets.
Tell Jonah my life
is just about to begin.
The angels rejoice over
each sinner that repents.
That's the fragrance
of Jesus in you.
You once had the stench of death
but now you have
the scent of life.
I don't deserve any of this.
God's love knows no boundaries.
What do I do now?
The Holy Spirit will guide you
as you taste the goodness
of God's word
and walk in the light of Jesus.
Sir.
Sir. Can you hear me?
Sir, can you hear me?
We're gonna put you
on the stretcher
so try not to move.
Does your neck hurt?
Death is not the end,
but a passage into the eternal.
Oh! What is this?
Well, you deserve it.
Why don't you take the rest
of the day off
and have a nice long weekend
with that son of yours.
Thank you!
Every desire, every motive
ripples throughout eternity
and will be judged in the light
of the Righteous One.
This world is fading,
along with everything it craves.
God's love reaches out
to each heart
to walk with Him
and receive the gift
of His salvation,
rest, and peace.
Yet many ignore His call.
But for those who do the will
of God,
they will one day
have every tear
and every sorrow wiped away,
and they will live forever
in the glory and love
of our Lord Jesus.
---
Life is a series of moments
where every thought, every word,
and every action ripples
throughout eternity.
Love knows no boundaries.
There is a battle between
the light and the darkness
that rages for each soul.
The gift of life
stands before you,
and one day, the light
will reveal all things.
Jonah?
Jonah?
Jonah, no!
Jonah!
There was a big battle
on the senate floor yesterday
as freshman senator,
Jonah Thomas,
the rising star in the Senate,
vehemently opposed
Senator Rushton's tax increase
stating that raising taxes
on the already over-burdened
American family
was like a declaration
of war against its citizens.
Here's more from Senator Thomas.
Well, the American citizens
won a small victory today.
If my colleagues in the Senate
actually had the guts
and the integrity
to truly represent the
interests of the people
and not their own,
we'd be well on our way
to makin' this country
great again.
Senator Rushton
is not one to give in easily,
stating that his proposal
would help stimulate
the US economy.
He is on a mission.
I want him out of the picture.
It's got teeth.
There's no way they can
prove it's not true.
Just give me a day
to set it in motion.
Make it happen this afternoon.
I think Senator Rushton's
gonna come after me.
Hey, Pam.
This better be good, Winston.
You know I don't like
to be bothered
when I'm out here.
Thought you might like to know
that your hunch was correct.
Baker's office
has been in contact
with this woman for months.
Jane Isner.
Now she's Richards'
new personal assistant.
She's Baker's insider.
How'd you make the connection?
Called in a few favors.
All strictly legal.
Um... Every path to Baker
is a dead end.
Baker used to be FBI
before he became a senator.
He knows all the methods,
but I have a secret weapon.
-What's that?
-You.
But I'm just a consultant.
Exactly, you're not really FBI.
Keep fishing.
I wanna know how Baker
fits in to all of this.
What do we use as bait?
I've got a team
going after Richards.
He's having a secret meeting
about his vaccine bill today.
Dirty money and everything.
Why haven't they taken any steps
to balance the budget?
Our national debt is
spiraling out of control.
Today was an unfortunate
setback.
I'm fighting for
the little guy here.
This battle is sure to continue,
but most would agree round one
goes to Senator Thomas.
- Yeah, everything looks great.
- The numbers look great.
Yeah, well, the lawyers
have to approve everything
but we need to get together.
The FBI doesn't know
about the second vaccine.
I'll make sure it
stays that way.
Okay.
Senator Baker?
Sir?
It's going down this morning.
Sanders
is really focused on this one.
The pressure's high.
-You wanna come along?
-I'm hunting big game today.
Bigger game than
three US senators?
I'm expecting a briefing
at four.
I'll see you at four.
Happy hunting.
The cancer vaccine
stops or cures 99 percent.
Your father happens
to fall in the 1 percent.
You have no idea
how much suffering
my father has gone through
because of their so called
cancer-curing vaccine.
We should talk later
when cooler heads prevail.
I'm giving you the opportunity
to be the hero.
10 million is pocket change
in comparison to the windfall
they're about to have.
How do I know you'll hand over
all the data on the vaccine?
How can I trust you?
Trust.
Trust goes both ways.
This needs to happen today.
Even they don't have that
kind of money sitting around.
Besides, they haven't passed
the bill yet.
It'll pass.
I'll bring all the data
and we'll all sign
the papers together.
Deal?
We have a deal.
They have a meeting at the
Artisan penthouse around 11.
Senator Williams
likes the chefs,
so they'll have a late lunch.
Be there at 1:30, no sooner.
I'll be there.
The hotel is closed
for renovations.
I'll leave a message
at the front desk
for you to be escorted
to the penthouse.
If I sense that
there's any trouble,
I'll leave and release
the information.
Understood?
Understood.
What if they release the data?
How do you think they got
the data in the first place?
Our vaccine is perfect.
Senator Richards' vaccine
is flawed.
It's terribly flawed
and we've got to do
something about it.
Just keep us up to date
on all the details.
Will do.
Thank you, gentlemen.
You called it.
They're meeting
at the Artisan today.
They should be
the only ones there.
No civilian casualties.
You don't have to go.
I can do it myself.
Dad, there's no turning back.
I'm the one that convinced you
to take it in the first place
because they guaranteed me
it would work.
Look,
I want them to pay
just as much as you do.
Senator McLuster talked about
the possible human
suffering from the vaccine
as a risk-versus-reward scenario
as if he were talking
about sacks of potatoes.
They're getting off easy
as far as I'm concerned.
You're gonna have to
finish the last two.
Well, if it looks,
talks, and walks
like a duck, it's a duck.
In this case, it's a pig.
What? Today?
Hold on.
Yeah, well, what time?
Two o'clock?
Yeah, no problem.
I don't have anything
important scheduled at two.
I can make that, no problem.
Yeah, well that's what I
was trying to tell you.
It just makes sense.
I mean, we gotta hold
these people accountable.
Sorry
for the impromptu gathering,
but we've had
some important meetings
come up this morning.
I was able to push back
the retool meeting
to ten o'clock,
and I just heard you
snagged a two o'clock
-on the pure water project?
-Mm-hm.
I thought
that would never happen.
You said you were gonna go
to Chloe's tennis
match at two today.
I have been trying
to arrange this meeting
for the last three months.
Who knows when I'll get
another opportunity.
There'll be other
tennis matches.
What's next?
Your speech and victory
on the Senate floor
turned a lot of heads,
including the Martins.
They wanna have the family
over for dinner
tonight at their place
about seven.
They raised six figures
for Congressman Gidell,
and they don't even like him.
This should get us closer
to our financial goals.
How's that sound?
Sounds like we're gonna miss
another family night.
We'll be there.
All right, I'll let them know
you're coming.
And I'll see you
back at the office.
Just trust me this one time.
I really, really feel strongly
about you not going
to work today.
Is that all you're worried about
is another dream?
It was more than a dream.
It was like a vision,
and it has something to do
with some senators
meeting with you at a hotel--
Well, there you go.
Mitch just went
over our itinerary.
Don't have any
meetings at a hotel.
Nothin' to worry about.
Just-- Please.
Just do it for me then.
We've been talking about going
to see your mother,
so let's go today.
I can't.
She's in a coma.
What good would it do anyway?
We'll talk about this tonight.
She's leaving us.
Get the defibrillator.
What happened?
She's stable.
Get a technician
to check out the equipment.
Yes, ma'am.
We'll let her rest.
Be strong, faithful warrior.
Your prayers are
about to be answered.
Chloe, come on, babe.
We're late for school.
Mitch, what is it?
I didn't wanna say
anything in front of Aubrey,
but I ran into
an old friend yesterday
that works with Senator Rushton.
Rushton wants blood.
My friend shared
confidential information
on how Rushton and his friends
took out Senator Gibson
five years ago.
The guy
with the insurance scandal?
Well, they found him innocent.
Sure, but the scandal
and other obstacles
of their creation
put a huge blemish
on his political record.
He never recovered.
He lost his senate bid,
lost everything.
They're gonna start
putting pressure
on your financial backers
to drop you
while they look for skeletons
in the closet.
And when they don't find any,
they're gonna make them up.
So you're saying
my political career is over.
It's over as you know it.
-You probably won't get
a second term unless--
-Unless I compromise.
They wanna meet
with you at four.
Stall them.
Let me think about it.
Okay, I'll see you.
We're gonna have to calibrate
the bombs on site.
I'll show you how to do it.
What's the matter?
What if something goes wrong?
We should send the data
to the press now.
We do not let go of
our ace in the hand
-until it's over.
-Until it's over.
Besides, we should be able
to handle a few senators.
You had German food last night.
I thought you hated German food.
-Katie loves it.
-Here we go with this again.
Things are
different this time, okay?
-Right, right.
-Yeah. Third time's a charm.
You guys are ridiculous,
you know that?
Testing, one, two, three.
Are we good?
We're all out of options.
I've got a friend
going over new research
on your mother's condition.
In all honesty,
it doesn't look promising.
-How much time does she have?
-A week, at best.
I'll keep you posted
if her condition changes.
Thanks.
- I've been praying for you.
- Please, Mom.
But my prayers
have been different.
You don't believe,
and I want that for you
more than anything.
I've heard it all before.
I'm gonna be just fine.
Are you?
Jonah,
I'm going home soon.
What do you mean?
I didn't wanna tell you
unless I knew for sure,
but the doctor says
I have pancreatic cancer.
How long do you have?
Two, maybe... maybe four months.
But I'm ready.
Why do you still believe?
Especially now.
Because without God,
life just doesn't make
any sense.
I don't know if you can hear me.
Oh, I miss you.
I need you now more than ever.
Did you finish
that Amherst report?
No, I didn't, I'm sorry.
I'll finish it this afternoon.
Jackie,
the meeting is this Thursday.
I need time to prepare.
All right.
I won't let it happen again.
Senator Richards
on your right.
Ah, speak of the devil.
Meet you guys back
at the office.
Senator Richards.
We were just talking about you.
Senator, how are you?
Good morning.
This is my assistant,
Jane Isner.
Jane, this is--
The elusive
Senator Jonah Thomas.
I'm a huge fan.
Really? How's that?
You speak what's on your mind,
shake things up a bit.
It's a rare trait in DC.
Well, you're too kind.
How can I help you, Senator?
I just need a minute.
I'll let you two chat.
I've gotta make a quick call.
Look, I'm just askin'
for one hour.
-Well, I'm just sayin' no.
-You're new around here.
You could use some friends.
And more importantly, you
don't want some more enemies--
- Senator Rushton.
- There's one for you.
I know Rushton's trying
to get over on ya,
but if you come,
that little meeting
you're supposed to have at four,
problem solved.
So you'll handle Rushton if
I come to your little meeting?
Eleven o'clock.
It'll be private.
Senators McLuster
and Williams will be joining us.
All you have to do
is hear us out.
Williams?
I know you two
have been butting heads.
Richards is putting pressure
on Senator Thomas
to back their cancer vaccine
instead of yours.
If he backs
Richards' vaccine bill,
Jonah will step
right in the middle
of your war with Richards.
That's unfortunate.
We need him on our side.
What do you want me to do?
Talk him out of it?
He's a good guy.
Someone should warn him.
No, it's too late now.
Look, let's just see how this
thing plays out, all right?
Maybe he won't join them.
One hour is all I'm askin'.
One hour.
One hour, excellent.
Look, I have got to run.
Jane will brief you
on the meeting.
It's good to see you, Senator.
He can be persistent.
That's more like annoying.
There you go,
speaking your mind again.
Well, the meeting is at 11
at the Artisan Grand.
You know, if you'd like
I can swing by and pick you up.
Thanks, but I think
I'm gonna go it alone.
One never knows when
a quick exit might be in order.
Well, if you change your mind.
Or if you ever wanna
grab a cup of coffee,
compare notes, give me a call.
Gentlemen, let me
remind you of something.
These men are United States
senators.
That means
this must go by the book.
The hotel's been
undergoing renovation
so this floor
is still sealed off.
Does anybody have any questions?
All right,
let's lock it up tight.
Your guy's not gonna budge
from his convictions.
You're too late.
It's as good as done.
Leave Senator Thomas alone.
So where's my camera
in the hallway?
I'm on it.
I'm sorry to cut this short.
-I appreciate your time.
-Thank you.
-Been a pleasure.
-Thank you.
Hey guys,
I'll be right with you, okay?
Jonah.
What did you do?
What are you talking about?
Rushton canceled
the four o'clock.
They're backing off.
Well, hopefully
it's nothin' I'm gonna regret.
Don't go.
There is another way.
Hey!
Wait.
Why do I
listen to your bad ideas?
Ah, don't worry,
he's not gonna show.
It's a darn good idea,
and yeah, he's gonna show.
- Be sure of that.
- We have a mystery guest.
Life is short.
Have a pastry.
Don't worry,
it was just a bad dream.
Jonah, I am serious.
Is there anything else?
I'm gonna be late
for an appointment.
Chloe and I are spending
some time together,
and we'll be ready
for dinner at six.
All right, sounds good.
Love you.
All right, I love you too.
You wanted to see me?
You're not going to the wire
tapper at the Artisan?
Parker's heading it.
He's the best.
No need to get in the way.
What's the real reason?
Senator Baker.
We've been watching him
for almost three years,
ever since the informant
gave us a lead on him.
He's close to his goal.
Now Baker's office tips us off
on pals he's in bed with?
I find that a point of interest.
What did you find?
Stories from his
staff aren't adding up.
Phone records and correspondence
verify my suspicions.
So you think Baker's settin' up
his old friends for a fall?
I'm close to finding a motive.
Okay.
Keep on the trail.
Keep me in the loop.
He's got some powerful friends.
Here we go.
Zoom in, let's get an ID.
That's Senator Thomas.
Thanks for coming.
We know how valuable
your time is,
so we'll try to be brief.
Gentlemen, if you'll excuse us.
-Thank you, sir.
-You bet.
You know Senators
McLuster, Williams.
Please.
Two dollar tip.
That's criminal.
Hey Travis, why don't you
take Katie out?
All right, people,
let's stay focused.
Why the long faces?
Thought we voted to raise
our salaries this year.
-This is a mistake.
-Hey, take it easy.
Sit down, Williams.
Look, we know
you're on the fence
about the Blackburn
Medical Reform Bill,
and we need your support
to move it forward,
to get it passed.
Well, what about Bennett?
He's more inclined to go
your way.
Bennett couldn't convince a man
dying of thirst
to drink a cup of water. No.
Besides, people trust you.
You proved that yesterday.
Washington's
a pretty tough town.
We play by a different set
of rules
and you're gonna need
an ally to survive.
Right now, we need you
and we're willing
to make you an offer.
We can help you get your feet
on solid ground.
You're drowning
in a sea of debt.
We can save you.
You're gonna have to do it.
Hit send.
That'll set the bombs.
Gentlemen,
thanks for your time
but I'm gonna take my chances
out there on my own.
Whoa, whoa.
I think we've, at least,
earned the right
to be heard here.
What we're proposing
is a win-win situation
for everyone, including you.
There's no harm in listening.
All right, let's get going.
We don't have much time.
Dad? Dad, what's wrong?
Get the phone.
Rewind that.
There's a camera on the wall
that wasn't there before.
Look straight ahead, walk.
Stop.
We got two gunmen
in the hallway!
Gilman, Travis, take 'em now!
Freeze!
-FBI!
-Hands, hands where
I can see 'em!
- Wait.
- FBI!
Bring 'em around,
bring 'em around.
Put your hands behind your head.
Hey, what's goin' on here?
Hands behind your head, buddy.
Right there, put 'em back.
Put 'em back.
Hands, hands where
I can see 'em.
On your knees!
Get down.
-What have you done?
-I don't know.
I didn't do anything.
He's got somethin'
in his hand. You see it?
Down on three, two, one.
[PORTAL WHOOSHES
Peace.
Be still.
Am I dead?
One could say that
you never lived.
-What?
-No.
You are not dead.
We are in the spiritual realm
of the world you know.
There was an explosion that...
How'd I get here?
It took more than
you can imagine
to bring you here.
We tried to warn you.
Am I dreaming?
No, this world is more real
than the one you know.
Well, who are you?
I am Gabriel.
The angel?
And you thought
I was just a myth.
Once they form the barrier,
we cannot escape.
The enemy is in force.
I do not know how
much time we have
as we are in the thick
of a great battle.
Battle, what battle?
I am here to open
your eyes to the truth.
This battle... is for your soul.
They are like hungry lions
out to devour anyone they can.
What are you talkin' about?
They are the enemy,
followers of the fallen star,
Satan.
Do not be deceived.
They are superior
in intelligence, clever,
and can take on any form.
Do you want to know the truth?
Then take my hand.
-Who are they?
-Friends.
I-- I can't move.
We gotta go.
Come on.
I could be dead right now.
Did you have anything
to do with this?
It was a wiretap. That's all--
You were wiretapping the room?
When were you gonna fill me
in on that?
Look, let's get together.
I can clear this up.
None of those men
deserved to die.
Jane, listen to me.
Jane. Jane?
Breaching FBI database.
This is the reckoning pool.
It represents the
words, thoughts,
and actions of anyone
that has ever lived,
and lives today.
Follow me.
You can trust me.
Is this really water?
Yes.
Look closely.
Didn't I tell you not
to play in the garage?
I'm sorry, Dad,
I didn't mean to.
Please, I'm sorry.
There was 200 dollars' worth
of paint and supplies.
Dad.
You are absolutely worthless,
you know that?
Who's gonna pay
for all this, you?
Worthless.
Each word and action,
both good and bad,
ripples throughout eternity.
Your father never knew
how his rage would
affect your life
and the lives of countless
others, including his own.
I could never please my father,
no matter how hard I tried.
But that's not true.
Your father loved you very much.
He even bragged about you
to friends and loved ones.
He just never knew
how to show his love.
I have revealed this to you
so you can remember the
pain of ill-chosen words.
I vowed to never treat
my daughter that way.
But you have, even today.
What? Today?
Hold on. Well, what time?
Two o'clock?
Yeah, no problem.
I don't have anything
important scheduled at two.
I can make that, no problem.
He always lies to me,
and he doesn't care
about anything I do.
I wish he were dead.
You're okay.
Come on, I got ya.
I got ya, come on, let's go.
I need a phone.
Come on.
Quiet.
Gilman to Parker.
-Yeah, Gilman, come in.
-Travis is dead.
In pursuit of suspects
at north end of stairwell.
Suspects are entering
the 48th floor.
Roger, Gilman, 48th floor.
We copy.
Okay, Mills is gonna cover
the south stairwell.
Do not pursue
until he's in position.
Acknowledge.
Come on.
This way.
FBI Database accessed.
I'm impressed.
- How did you do this?
- Do what?
Firewall breached.
Bobby, I'm getting
a delayed transmission.
Pull this up on your screen.
I wanna trace the source on it.
I want to show you something.
I've seen enough.
I notice how people
gravitate towards you.
You're a natural leader.
Your mom and I have decided
to send you to a special
leadership training camp
for a couple weeks.
They don't take just anybody,
but after talking to them
they've decided to take you.
Son, you have a wonderful gift.
You need to learn how to use it.
That was one of the best days
of my life,
one of the few times
my father made me feel special.
Those words and actions
pushed your life in
a positive direction.
So all my words and actions
are stored here?
Everyone that has ever lived,
who lives today.
Nothing is hidden,
and one day all things
will be revealed.
Time in your world is but
a vapor in the eyes of eternity.
Your kind chase after shadows,
selfish ambition.
It's meaningless
in the eyes of God.
There's been a huge explosion.
We need immediate backup
and medical assistance.
Suspects are on the 48th floor.
Agents Gilman and Mills
in pursuit.
Secure the floor
and lock down the hotel.
Backup is on the way.
System security
has been breached.
Okay, hello.
How did you get in?
Give me that source. You got it?
-Hey, buddy.
-Hello, Colt.
If you're watching--
if you're watching this,
I'm probably dead.
I just sent over the package
with the data
I've been collecting
for the last couple months
of the so called cancer vaccine.
Just make sure the information
gets out.
It's important
that people see this.
All right, buddy.
See ya some other time.
Colt, what did you do?
Dad. Dad!
I can make it.
-We have to go back.
-Why?
If we're still alive,
they might still be alive.
I wanna die knowing
that I finished the job.
Look closely.
This morning, Senator Williams
made his last adjustments
to his financial portfolio.
He accumulated more wealth
than most people
could ever imagine,
some honestly, and some
through ill-gotten gains.
But he was very generous.
But God knows the motives
and actions of the heart.
Williams, like many,
hoped in the end
that his good deeds
would cover his sins
and buy his way into heaven.
Senator Richards
took a different path
to fulfill his
desire for purpose,
the lusts of the flesh.
Straight.
Sin has
its season of pleasure,
but there is always a price.
Richards needed the deal
to pay off the hush money
for his many transgressions.
Power
was Senator McLuster's path.
He wanted it over
his constituents.
He wanted power over
his fellow senators.
- I got that.
- You got it?
He wanted power
over the nation.
Like most, they never sought God
for their true purpose.
They missed out on the path
that God prepared for them.
Now they will stand before Him
and give an account
for their lives.
McLuster's dead.
I promise you,
I'm gonna finish this.
Where are the senators now?
Are you sayin' they're dead?
I will show you in due time.
Do you recognize anyone?
No, should I?
Aren't you supposed to be a man
of the people?
Well, how can you expect me
to know any of these people?
Do you know
your next door neighbor?
Yeah.
Clayton and Martha.
Really?
When's the last time
you spoke with Clayton?
If your son pleads guilty,
the state has agreed to give him
two years in jail plus rehab.
He's only 19.
We are paying
you a ton of money
because we heard
you were the best,
that you could get
our son out of this mess,
and now you're telling us
you can't get him
probation and rehab?
He broke an officer's jaw
during the arrest
and he was in
possession of a handgun.
That changes everything.
Two years is a gift,
especially with this judge.
Martha.
You've been
extremely hard on Jackie,
even wondering how you
could replace her with Jane,
who you met just this morning.
Jackie has been faithful to you.
She does the work
of two staff members
even though you promised
to lighten the load.
Did you know that her husband
left her and their son?
Her dreams of love, shattered.
She wonders how she's going
to raise her son
and pay the bills.
Aubrey is wondering
the same thing of you.
She feels alone,
as if you've already left her.
She thought you were
going to be there for her
-as a husband...
-I need some time to think.
...and a father.
I know that Aubrey
and Chloe are having
a tough time right now.
The first two years are
the hardest on the Hill.
What are you, judging me?
Unfortunately,
my responsibilities
to help people
take a lot of my time.
I'm just trying to open
your eyes to the truth.
Your wife knew
you were in a hurry
so she took the liberty
of ordering your favorite.
Sorry, honey, I
had to take a call.
Good news, we can celebrate
the passing of the Baker
Medical Reform Bill in style.
I've made reservations
at our favorite place in Aspen.
Are you okay?
Where is Aubrey and Chloe?
They're in Austin.
Sorry I'm late.
The traffic was heavy.
- She's responsive?
- It took a small miracle.
She's weak, but she's...
she's improving.
She's not out of the woods
but her vitals are improving.
I'll give you some time alone.
Try not to keep her up too long.
Grandma!
Hi.
Oh, thank God you're back!
Thank God.
I'm happy to see my girls.
Mom, I think Jonah's
having a relapse
from the explosion.
The doctor said
he may experience
some forms of amnesia.
Honey, you're gonna be fine.
I'm gonna give the
doctor a quick call.
I'll just be a second.
Uh...
I am so glad you found Jane.
Divorcing Aubrey
was the right thing to do.
She was just too demanding.
This one is your true soul mate.
I thought you loved Aubrey
and were against divorce.
Well, I've learned
from recent experience
that God wants us to be happy.
He wants us to live
life to the fullest.
Jane and the Medical Reform Bill
has allowed you
to truly be happy.
Jonah, it's the demon!
Gabriel.
Daegon.
Yes, my prince.
We need more reinforcements.
Don't let Gabriel break
our defenses again.
Track them.
What just happened?
That was not your mother.
It was Magog, a powerful demon
among the enemy.
They seemed so real.
The enemy presented a lie
that could one day be real.
No.
No, I would never leave my wife
and daughter for her,
or for anyone for that matter.
You've already succumbed to
the temptations in your heart.
The truth can reveal
the darkest parts of one's life,
things you don't wanna
believe about yourself.
-So you can read my thoughts?
-No.
Our abilities are limited.
However, God has no limits
and He's allowed me
a glimpse of your heart.
All right, I might be tempted,
but I would never leave my wife.
Your confidence betrays you.
The enemy will take
you down a path
that will leave
your life in ruins
and one step closer
to accomplishing their mission.
And what would that be?
To destroy your marriage,
your life,
and as many lives as they can.
No.
I...
I don't know how to explain it.
I think that Jonah is
in some kind of trouble.
He is.
May be concerned
for their loved ones
working at the hotel,
but they are keeping us updated
-on the situation.
-He's there.
Once again,
police now believe
that both explosions
were deliberate
and they have confirmed
that there were people
on the floors where
the explosions occurred.
- Oh no!
We don't know
if there are any injuries...
It's my fault, isn't it?
Oh no.
I didn't mean to say
that I wanted Dad to die.
Honey, I know you didn't.
And God knows you
didn't mean it.
...all the streets within a mile
of the hotel,
and only authorized personnel
are allowed near and in
the building at this time--
I gotta go.
Aubrey, Aubrey.
It won't do any good.
But this had something
to do with my dream.
There's gotta be a reason.
God sent the dream
to warn Jonah.
The battle he's facing
isn't against flesh and blood.
I am not a part of your war.
How do I know that
you're not lying?
'Cause you still know
in your heart
that the path the enemy
has presented to you
would leave your life in misery.
Love sees you
as something beautiful,
a prize worthy of dying for.
Run!
He's alive.
Wha...
What was that?
Grena--
You all right?
You still with us?
I heard ever since
that explosion
you have trouble
concentrating now and then.
Would you like a drink?
No. No, thank you.
Well, you sure look
like you could use one.
That explosion
was a terrible tragedy.
I didn't know that you were
in that little meeting
there with Senator Richards.
To be truthful, you got greedy.
Started maneuvering
behind my back.
I had to make arrangements.
You were behind the bombing?
No, no, my plan was get
the FBI to investigate 'em,
expose him, get
him out of office,
get him outta my hair.
But as fate would have it,
those two lunatics...
well, as they say,
it's an ill wind
that doesn't blow
somebody some good.
You were just in the wrong place
at the wrong time.
Senator Richards was wise
to bring you in on
his little deal.
People like you.
You get things done.
Nobody would have suspected
a thing.
I listened
to those FBI wire tapes.
You didn't have a chance
to join them.
But you can join me.
My plan
may seem a little bit radical
in that it mandates
certain advances,
one being that the vaccine
is clinically proven
to eradicate cancer.
Your mother has cancer,
doesn't she?
No more deaths from cancer.
Not to mention the billions,
and billions of dollars
we would save
the American public.
My guess is you get a cut
of each vaccine.
If you help me,
I will personally see to it
that you move up in class.
I'm talkin' about real power,
real wealth.
What do you want me to do?
Nothin' that nobody else
wouldn't do,
or hasn't done, for that matter.
Sounds like you want me
to break the law.
Just look the other way.
All your problems
will be behind you
and the good life
in front of you.
Do you believe in God, senator?
God?
Look, our scientists have proven
beyond a doubt that
now in this day and age
we have no need for a god.
Now that's a fact.
You can bank on that.
But I do believe
in positive energy
bringing two people together,
you and me here together today
to do something
for the good of mankind.
Hm?
You have a chance to be a hero
in this brave new world.
What is going on?
I want some answers.
They are searching
for each weakness in your heart
so they can tempt you
into helping sign
Baker's Medical Reform Bill,
which will require the people
to take the vaccine.
The vaccine only appears
to work for a few months
and then the cancer will
return with a vengeance,
killing thousands, and millions
upon millions of people
will suffer a pain
beyond human comprehension,
a pain that cannot be stopped.
If that's true, why didn't you
tell me that earlier?
It is my hope that one day
you won't need me to
tell you anything,
that you'll be guided
by the greatest of powers.
What power?
Let me show you.
Hey Pam.
Keep this within the agency.
Don't talk to anyone
on the outside
without passing it by me first,
is that clear?
All right.
Got somethin' you have to see.
An old friend
of mine, Colt Lesher,
is behind the bombing.
Actually, the best
that we can determine
is that Colt and his father,
they ran into our agents
in the lobby of the hotel.
Forcing them to prematurely
detonate the bomb
using a cell phone,
and at the same time
sending me a ton of data.
So what's in the data?
Actually,
some pretty damning evidence
against the Blackburn
Medical Reform Bill.
The bill that Requires everyone
to take a cancer vaccine.
Known in the medical
world as RZZ989.
It's getting tons of buzz
in the medical journals.
Baker was on to them.
Oh, he was more than on to them.
Baker's been gearing up
a cancer vaccine of his own.
Richards' group
is Baker's competition.
Baker was using our wire tap
to clear the playing field.
But if the reaction
is that painful,
how is Colt's father
even able to walk?
Ex-Navy SEAL.
Toughest guy I ever met.
Each day, thousands
and thousands of people
from all over the world,
from all races,
from all walks of life,
they were born into
the bondage of sin
which they cannot
break free from on their own.
They can neither see,
nor feel their shackle
because the Evil One
has placed a veil
over their eyes,
blinding them from the truth,
the truth that loves them
and longs to set them free.
There are many that
have surrendered
to the light of this world,
the light of Jesus that
leads you beyond the darkness
that can open their eyes
to the truth.
A light that can free them
from the shackles of sin
and give them the
gift of eternal life.
God is about relationships.
He wants us to walk in His light
and know His love
so that we can truly
love Him and others.
So what about those people
who die without
accepting His love?
God sends 'em to hell?
What kind of a love is that?
But why would
Colt and his father
want to kill Richards
and the other senators?
And where did
he get all that data?
Short version, Colt's father
has stage-4 bone cancer.
Freid Pharmaceuticals
creates RZZ.
Colt's a big-time at Freid,
so he finagles a sample
of the vaccine for his dad
and it lives up to the hype.
He's cancer-free in three weeks.
Four months later,
the cancer came back.
Colt hacked his way
into the research
department's database...
discovered a major coverup
by Senators Hear-No-Evil,
See-No-Evil,
and Speak-Plenty-Of-Evil.
The vaccine slash drug,
it works miracles
in 95 percent of test groups.
In the remaining 5 percent,
the cancer growth slows
but somehow
their central nervous system
comes completely under attack.
Imagine third-degree burns
all over your body
with no sign of relief.
It literally
was driving patients insane.
What else have you got?
Apparently, our senators
falsified the data.
Millions of lives
could be at risk.
It is appointed
for all to die once
and then receive judgment.
That includes you.
Each person, great and small,
will stand before God.
Their words, thoughts,
and deeds will be judged.
Everyone whose name
is not in the Book of Life
will be cast
into the lake of fire.
Help us!
Please!
Help us!
Do something!
Why aren't you helping them?
They've sealed their own fate.
There's nothing
we can do for them now.
I can feel the pain, and agony.
You were allowed to experience
a mere fraction
of their eternal torment.
So this loving
God created a hell?
Why doesn't God do anything
about the evil and the suffering
in the world?
If He truly cares,
if He is a God of love
he would've done
something by now!
He hasn't done anything!
You were allowed
to feel an ounce
of Love's agony, rejection,
and pain at the cross.
Jesus paid the great price
for the sins of this world,
your sins,
so that whosoever believes
in Him
shall not perish,
but will have everlasting life.
The question you should be
asking yourself is...
why would anyone
reject the love of Jesus?
Run! They're coming!
Jonah, behind you!
No!
Jonah,
my son.
Mother?
The best thing
that we can do for Jonah
is to pray.
Dear heavenly Father,
please protect Jonah.
We know that he is
in grave danger,
but we also know
that You are stronger
than anything that he can face.
Colt's father
only has a month to live.
That vaccine is brutal.
Does Baker's vaccine even work?
That's just it, we don't know.
I mean, Colt was digging.
How come
Colt didn't come to you first,
let us deal with it?
According to the notes,
Colt and his father thought
the senators were just
gonna get a slap on the wrist.
They wanted revenge.
It's the lap dog.
There is no escape.
Why are you so interested
in this one?
The question is, why do you
bother with any of them?
They're weak, unfaithful,
so easy to deceive.
And yet He favors them more
than me, more than you.
It is you that is unfaithful,
and so easily deceived
to believe
that you and your master
could defeat God.
Love for them,
that's His weakness.
And that is why we
will be victorious in the end.
You can still join us,
my brother.
Still under the deception
that you're going to win,
liars believing the lie.
If you change your mind,
call out my name.
Maybe I'll come and save you.
Now I've got a war to win.
Finish him.
With pleasure.
My son.
You look so young.
We are ageless in this world.
Why are you troubled?
I've seen so many things.
I, too, have seen many wonders
since I've been here.
It's like my eyes
have been opened
for the first time.
What do you mean?
I was closed-minded before.
I now know that hell was a myth
created by a man
to control men through fear.
God is love.
He forgives all.
You're free to choose
your own path
at your own will.
So you no longer
believe in Jesus?
I'm afraid that my time
in this world
is coming to an end.
I can hear heaven's call.
Let's experience heaven
together.
No.
No. I saw the cross.
Yet you still question,
as you should.
You don't believe.
Leave him!
Call upon Prince Magog's name
and you will be spared.
Last chance!
Never!
What's happening?
They're creating a barrier.
They're coming.
What's this?
Your sins.
You're dying.
They're here.
I'll find you
on the other side of the river.
Oh, dear Lord...
use this time to
open up his eyes,
to have him accept
the gift of life
through Jesus Christ, Your Son.
No!
You're worthless!
You know
you don't deserve mercy,
and you're never gonna get it.
You're a miserable father
and a terrible husband!
Your father's right.
You're worthless.
I know you don't love me.
You always lie to me.
I am here to open
your eyes to the truth,
the truth that
will set you free.
You were never there for me.
I wish you were never born.
Love sees you as
something beautiful,
a prize worthy of dying for.
We deserve better.
I hate you!
Jesus paid the great price
for the sins of this world,
your sins.
You know you don't deserve mercy
and you're never gonna get it.
Your father's right.
You are worthless.
God,
please help me.
I know I don't deserve
Your love.
Jesus.
Forgive my sins.
I give my life to You.
Why did I wait so long?
Come with me,
child of the living God.
My leg.
Your leg will never recover
in your world.
But know that
you are born again,
and that you have new life.
Chloe, get the doctor.
No.
It's gonna be okay.
It's time.
Not now.
Grandma, please.
Just don't lose faith,
no matter how hard life gets.
Tell Jonah my life
is just about to begin.
The angels rejoice over
each sinner that repents.
That's the fragrance
of Jesus in you.
You once had the stench of death
but now you have
the scent of life.
I don't deserve any of this.
God's love knows no boundaries.
What do I do now?
The Holy Spirit will guide you
as you taste the goodness
of God's word
and walk in the light of Jesus.
Sir.
Sir. Can you hear me?
Sir, can you hear me?
We're gonna put you
on the stretcher
so try not to move.
Does your neck hurt?
Death is not the end,
but a passage into the eternal.
Oh! What is this?
Well, you deserve it.
Why don't you take the rest
of the day off
and have a nice long weekend
with that son of yours.
Thank you!
Every desire, every motive
ripples throughout eternity
and will be judged in the light
of the Righteous One.
This world is fading,
along with everything it craves.
God's love reaches out
to each heart
to walk with Him
and receive the gift
of His salvation,
rest, and peace.
Yet many ignore His call.
But for those who do the will
of God,
they will one day
have every tear
and every sorrow wiped away,
and they will live forever
in the glory and love
of our Lord Jesus.
