Alphas (2011–2012): Season 2, Episode 8 - Falling - full transcript

Kat goes undercover to investigate the source of a street drug that makes its user invincible, while Rosen works to confirm his suspicions about Dani's being an informant for Parish. Meanwhile, Hicks suspects that his son may be an Alpha.

Previously on Alphas...

I have this thing

where I can't remember
anything that happened, like,

more than a month ago.

It's got to be lonely.

You said that you would bring my
dad around to our way of thinking.

Do you understand
everything I'm risking for this?

Someone close to us
is working with Parish.

Cameron, is that one
of Dani's paintings?

Yeah, she just finished it.

You haven't seen it before?



Yes, I have.

This is what we came
here for, the ultimate rush.

Hold this.

Put it under your tongue.

It gets hot, then you'll feel
it moving through your body.

Just look at your hands.

You'll know when it kicks
in. SHELLY: This is insane.

That's why it's so awesome.
It's not gonna hurt, right?

No. All right, who's first?

Let's go, let's do it!

Dive out from
the 21st floor! Oh!

That was awesome!
That was amazing!

Oh, my God. Are
we doing it again?

Hey, Doc.



You want whip cream?

No, not for me, thanks, Nathan.

Forgive me for intruding
on your family this way,

especially at this hour.

Not a problem.

When you said the investigation
into Parish's inside sources

is moving forward,
um, what do you mean?

Your abduction
was a break for us.

Your team tracked you down,

they opened a door into
Parish's communications network.

Now, it closed pretty fast,

but we were able to get a
flash clone of his cell log.

Every number Parish called,
every number that called him.

It's encrypted, tight as hell,

but NSA has been working
overtime to decode it.

They could have something solid on his
inside source in three, maybe four days.

Four days, and
then you'll be certain?

We're moving as
fast as we can, Doc.

Believe me, I want to get
this SOB as bad as you do.

Daddy, Daddy, we
don't have any tape.

This guy tells me last night

he's got a model of the whole
solar system that's due today.

You better hurry up. Thanks.

I don't know. Do you help him?

Kids have to learn how to deal
with their own problems, right?

Indeed they do.

Nathan, I'd love to have a
look at whatever you have,

concerning these
encrypted phone numbers.

I can't do that.

These internal
investigations are tight.

I can't even involve
my own people.

We'll get him. And he will
never see daylight again,

because I'm gonna put him in a room
and I'm gonna throw away the room.

This is from the net.

Analysts kicked
this video over to us.

Now, either there are four people
with the exact same Alpha ability,

or there's some kind of drug
that's turning people into Alphas.

Either way, we need to
get to the bottom of this.

Right, Bill.

I trust you to take
the reins on this one.

Uh, okay. I can do that.

So, you just want me
to keep you updated?

Yes, please.

- Gar, got you a present.
- Ta-da!

Oh, this is a plant. Yep.

You're not supposed to
just give someone a plant.

This could have bugs in it.

You're welcome. It's
for your man cave.

Bill, we need to call the
exterminators. Oh, come on, Gary.

Kat's brought some
bugs into the office.

All right. I just sent you a
YouTube link, okay? Gary...

I need you both to focus.

Focus is my middle name.

No. You can't know
that for sure. Gary.

Gary, I need face grabs
off the video, okay?

I... Check the internet
for any matches, okay?

We're looking for any indications
that these people may be Alphas.

Hey, what about me?

You can call the exterminator.

You bring bugs in here,
you take care of that.

Douche bag.

Hey. Hey.

So, I thought of another
thing for Friday night.

My mom will offer you coffee
as soon as you get there.

But you must turn her down
three times before accepting it.

And then once you take it, you
have to drink it all, every last sip.

Okay. I'll make
sure I come thirsty.

Oh, and don't compliment

anything in the house,
like a painting or a lamp

because they'll insist that
you take it home with you,

and then afterwards they'll complain about
it like you're the boy who stole the lamp.

I'm serious.

Well, I know. It's just...

You're cute when you're worried.

Does this look like the
face of a worried person?

Rachel... Uh-huh?

You know I've been
in actual combat, right?

Yes.

I think I can handle
dinner with your parents.

Yes. Yeah. Okay...

Okay.

Breathe deeper.

So he's not an Iranian lawyer.

Your parents will
just have to deal.

He's the blondest
boy I have ever seen.

They're gonna rip him to shreds.

Mwah!

Hello, Daddy!

Dr. Rosen?

Gary, would you
close the door, please?

Gary, I need you to handle
an assignment for me.

I'm already doing a case
for Bill, but I... I can multi-task.

Gary, I... You can't speak
to anyone about this.

If that makes you
uncomfortable, I understand.

No, I'm not uncomfortable.

Because I'm a secret agent.

Secret is what I do best.

Secret's my middle name.

Hey, Tyler! How are you, pal?

How was the flight? Bumpy.

But they had TVs.

There's someone
I want you to meet.

This is my friend Dani.

Hi, Tyler.

I hate it when the
flight's bumpy, too.

Come on.

Hey, that's a... That's a nice
deck. How long you been skating?

A while.

Well, I know this cool skate
park over on the West Side.

You wanna check it out?

Sweet. Dad, can we go?

Of course we can.

Busted! Bill!

She's a criminal!

She's busted and
I get to cuff her.

Hey, get up!
Assume the position.

Get up! You assume
the position. Get off me.

Bill, bring your cuffs!

Gary, what the hell
are you talking about?

Bill, I found the
guy from the video.

Look. He's like the ringleader.

And this is his Facebook.

And that picture. It
was taken last year.

Okay. So?

So, Bill. Look, there. It's her.

She's one of them.

I kind of look hot
with pink highlights.

Don't take no for an answer

There's no telling
where we've been

Because people don't
understand, understand, understand

People don't understand

People like me

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

This picture's only showing
that she met the guy, all right?

We don't even know if
he's doing anything wrong.

No, he is doing
something wrong, Bill.

It's drugs. This
is drug-related.

It's called Jump. I
found more videos.

Okay, so, Kat,

I don't suppose you
remember who this guy is?

Do you?

No. But he's having
a party tonight

and if Gary can get his
address, I can get reacquainted.

I mean, maybe
score a little Jump.

I'm essential to
this case now, right?

No, I'm not gonna
send you in blind, okay?

You don't even remember
if you know the guy

or how you left things with
him. But you'll have my six.

I'll be fine. No, Bill's
not gonna have your six.

Gary... He's my partner.

He has my six. You're not
even a real federal agent.

Gary. Gary, please.
Let me take it from here.

Oh, I leave. Yeah.

You're in cahoots.

Kat, undercover work is no joke.

You don't have any
field training, okay?

And if this Dylan Renfro
guy is dangerous...

I kicked your ass.

Aren't you supposed
to forget things?

I wrote that one down.

Locate Dylan
and feel things out.

Anything seems off,
get the hell out of there.

Relax.

I watched New York Undercover
and Donnie Brasco last night.

I've got this.

It's real life, not
a movie, girl.

Kat!

I've been looking
everywhere for you.

Kickass party.

You don't have a
clue who I am, do you?

I've been pushed
off your mental TiVo.

Maybe you should
refresh my memory.

You mind?

Do I look like I mind?

That's gross. Oh, come on...

Kat, why are you
kissing this guy?

I don't want to see that.

We were together.

Yeah, I can kind of tell.

What the hell, Dylan?

Easy, April. Kat's
an old friend.

Hey.

I thought we were
gonna hang out tonight.

Just give us a minute.

I get the feeling I'm getting
in the middle of something.

Are you guys together?

Are you kidding?

You're irreplaceable.

Oh! Whoa...

Um, what are they doing?

Having a good time.

Damn. Whoa.

That's not a fun party, Bill.

Come on! Uh! Oh!

Not even a scratch.

I'll have what he's having.

You mean this?

What exactly does
this stuff do, anyway?

Come on, I'll show you.

Kat, where are you going?

Kat, you're going out of
range, okay? I can't hear you.

Gary, follow her on
the com. Yeah, yeah.

Follow her signal.
In the alleyway.

We should just leave
her. She's useless.

Watch your step. Come on.

Can I open them now? Please?
No, no. A couple more steps.

Now.

I was hoping you'd come back
so we could do this together.

Come on! You were
always crazy brave, right?

I know you forget stuff, but that
doesn't change who you really are.

Trust me, Kitty Kat.

Kat!

You all right?

That was incredible.

No. We gotta go. We gotta go.

So, my mom's gonna
keep on offering you food

no matter how full you are,
and you have to keep on eating it.

All right, good tip.

Rachel... Yeah.

You speak Farsi.

Six years in the Middle East, you're
bound to pick up a couple things.

Hey, I'm complicated.

You don't peel back an onion
like this in a couple of weeks.

John, you should
have told me that.

I wanted it to be a surprise.

There's rules, Kat.
And rule number one,

you don't dive
off a frigging roof.

That doesn't sound
like a real rule.

Everything's a
joke to you, isn't it?

Kat, where you going?

I should never have
let you go undercover.

Why, because I did so well?

Look, there's a weird-ass
drug out on the street

and I got a sample of it.

Plus, I found out what
my favorite color is.

You have a sample of it?
It's green. Thanks for asking.

Where's the sample, Kat?

Right in here. Who's
Donnie Brasco now, bitch?

I made that.

I made that with
the label maker.

We don't have any
top secret stickers.

We needed some,
so I... I made 200.

This is what Cley
got off Parish's phone.

The NSA's still working
on it, but I cracked it.

You didn't even ask me
to, but I cracked it anyway.

Well, what does it mean? It
means that I took initiative.

No, I know, Gary. Thank
you, but no, the numbers.

Oh, yeah. You were right.

It's telephone numbers.

It's a very complicated
system, Dr. Rosen.

It's even harder to
crack than Anna's code.

But I think it must
have been made

by a super-computer
or an Alpha...

Gary, I want you to write
down any of these numbers

in the New York area
that are still active, all right?

Yeah.

You saw that thing
with the can, right?

You mean when he
threw it in the garbage?

Yes, he is quite the
little environmentalist.

No. Off the wall, into the recycling
bin and he was barely even looking.

Cam, don't.

I mean, what if he
is? Does it matter?

Yes, it matters.

Okay, but,

maybe I can help
him to understand it,

so he doesn't have to
feel like such a freak.

I think I should ask your
dad to run some tests on him.

No, no, no. Listen.

My dad ran a few tests on me.

It basically ruined my life.

This is your ruined life,
uh, you, me and ice cream?

No. This is pretty
frigging perfect.

I love you, you know that?

Hey.

Me, too.

Dad? Are we playing video games?

Yeah, pal, hang on. Get
ready to get your butt kicked.

Yeah, okay. All
right. Here we go...

Oh, wow. What?

The compound in Kat's blood.

It reshaped the tissue
at the molecular level,

creating a short-term
form of chitinous, which...

All right...

It made a protective shield
around the body, like Kevlar skin.

So, Jump makes
you indestructible?

Maybe not.

One of the kids in
the video, Tony Dolan.

He was found dead
a day after he jumped.

Let's get an autopsy
on that, please?

I've already got it.

But it doesn't mean I
actually understand it.

Tony died of cardiac fibrosis.

The hardening didn't stop at
his skin. It solidified his heart.

Yeah, there were eight cases of
cardiac fibrosis in the metropolitan area.

That's in the last three weeks.

So, Jump can make you
indestructible, but it can also kill you.

Kat, we need to
get you checked out.

We've got to get this
drug off the streets.

Dad?

Hi, Danielle. What's
wrong? Is... Is Mom okay?

Everything's fine,
as far as I know.

I just wanted to see you.

It's been awhile.

Um... Come on up.

Sorry, it's the same as always.

Hmm.

Well, these are different.

Yeah. Uh, it's not done yet.

Uh, they're nice.
They're very nice.

Oh, my goodness, you still
have this one after all these years.

Yeah, I still like the
way the hands came out.

Yeah, Mr. Tzodee's
class, seventh grade, right?

Yeah. Oh, you hated him.

I think you said it
was his bad breath.

Yeah.

Oh, I really did tell you
everything back then, didn't I?

Well, you still can, Dani. Yeah?

Sure.

Well, there is, um...
There's one thing.

Cameron.

Right. I mean, this is
me we're talking about.

I just keep wondering
how I'm gonna screw it up.

It's inevitable, right?

Dani, nothing is inevitable.
Not in this life, anyway.

Yeah. Yeah, I'm starting
to believe that, too.

Right. You okay?

Yeah, I'm just, uh... Just...

Oh, I'd love a cup of tea.

Yeah. Uh, yeah, of course. Yes.

Make yourself at home.

Still no sugar,
right? Uh, right.

Well...

Oh, yes. Lapsang
Souchong road tar tea.

I remember.

Morning. Good morning.

I know that look, Lee.

But don't worry,
I'm all over this.

I got the NSA to triple their
manpower on the investigation.

You came by my house
to light a fire under my ass,

and I heard you, loud and clear.

Thanks for your diligence.
By the way, Nathan,

how did it turn out with your
son's solar system project?

I did Neptune and Saturn

and I had to hear
about 300 Uranus jokes.

Your kid needs your help,
what're you gonna do?

Hey, so tonight's
the night, huh?

John versus the Pirzads.

Should be on pay-per-view.

He speaks Farsi.

Well, great. He'll
knock it out of the park.

Yeah. I canceled dinner.

I thought this was
what you wanted.

It is... I mean, it was.

All right, spill.

What if my parents
actually like him. Then what?

Then you have a hot boyfriend.

That's what people
call a real relationship.

Not that it's a topic I know
much about at the moment.

What if I'm not ready?

The last time I had a real
boyfriend was over three years ago.

Three years, no sex?

I can't.

With him, I had to get so
drunk I couldn't feel anything.

That was three years ago.

And John isn't that guy.

Yeah. But I'm still me.

And I'm a total freak.

No, Rachel, you're not.

Think of everything
you've done since then.

Think of everything
you do here every day.

You're strong and
you're capable.

We're all freaks.

That's my favorite.
Chocolate chili and rum raisin.

Really? You're messing with me.

Seriously? Where's the trust?

Oh, that's really good.

It's disgusting.
But, you love it.

I'm starting to think
I'm really weird.

But so frigging cute.

So, what are we doing tonight?

Wanna get more Jump?

I can get as much as I want.

I've got the New York franchise.

You deal it?

Let's just say I
know where to get it.

I have something.

It's yours.

You gave it to me
the last time I saw you.

This is mine?

This is mine.

The first day we met,

you were hustling money
doing that knife trick from Aliens.

Just trust me.

You know, the one where
you stab really quickly

in between your
fingers really fast?

Hmm.

I thought you were a badass.

You thought I was
handsome. We were both right.

Who's J.D.?

I have no idea.

Before my time.

I really missed you, Kat.

You can't arrest him.

Kat, this is rule number
two in field work, okay?

Whatever I say is what goes.

Now, we're gonna
arrest him, okay?

We're gonna lean on him and
then he gives up the source.

That's the way it works, Kat.

Yeah, but I can get him to
tell me who's making the stuff.

I know I can.

Kat, you got out of him
what you could, okay?

Now, in an hour, I will
have an arrest warrant.

Now, you did your job.

Let me do mine. Thank you.

Nice one, pal.

Hey, listen.

I want you to hit this next one
right down the third base line, okay?

Come on, pal,
you're not even trying.

I suck, okay?

I don't want to
hit balls anymore.

I just... I just
want to go home.

Okay, look, we'll go home.
We'll play video games, all right?

Whatever you want to
do. No, I want to go home.

My home.

Aw, Tyler...

Hey. That's for an official
government vehicle.

You're not allowed to take that.

And you're gonna go
and help a drug dealer.

You're not allowed
to do that, either.

Gary, Gary, look... I
care about this guy.

It's like you care about Bill and if he
was in trouble you'd help him, right?

Yeah, I'd help him.
Yeah, I'd get his six.

'Cause he's my partner.
But we're federal agents.

You're just a civilian.

Look, Gary. Gary, you're right.

Yeah. I know I'm right.
Look, I need your help.

I'm not authorized
to do this on my own.

Only a real federal agent can check
out an official government vehicle.

What do you say? Huh?

I can't be... Yeah,
yeah. But I'm driving.

Okay, fine.

Can you drive?

Yeah, of course. I
passed the test online.

I got a perfect score. But I'm
better if I don't drive on roads,

where there are no
other cars or people.

Just cause they don't
always obey the rules

and I could mow people down.

Okay. How about on the way back?

Yeah, okay.

You wanted to see me?

Hi, Nina.

Are you okay?

I need a favor, Nina.

Sure. You've always
been there for me.

How long would it take you to
get a passport under a false name?

I could walk into
a Federal building

and come out with one today.

Dani?

Tyler, I'm sorry, okay?

Whatever I did, I'm
sorry. Whatever, Dad.

I just wanna go home. Come on...

Hey. Hey, hey, hey.
Hey, what happened?

I took him to the
park to hit a few balls.

Okay, Dani? I had to know.

No, Cam you didn't.

Hey, Ty. Can you come
out here for a minute?

I don't want to talk to him.

Okay, well, you don't have to
talk to him. You can just talk to me.

I don't want to
talk to you, either.

I don't even know you.

That's fair enough.

How about no talking?

Promise.

Tyler, have you
heard about Alphas?

Dani!

I guess.

Well, I am one.

Give me your hand.

Cameron, this is how
you made Tyler feel today.

Tyler, this is how your
dad feels about you.

Oh, pal, I'm so sorry.

Dad.

I thought that you were
disappointed in me.

But this feels like...

I don't know what to call it.

It's just how I feel, pal.

It's love, Tyler.

Parish has manipulated her.
She's hooked on his ideology.

And Cley is on the verge
of catching her, Nina.

I... I just have to get
her away from him.

Away where? Anywhere
where Cley or Parish

can never find her, ever.

Now, I have some
money set aside...

A recovering addict
in a strange place?

With no support
system and money to...

She'll be dead in three months.

They'll send her to Binghamton,
Nina. You know they will.

Well, I suppose I'm as
much at fault as she is.

I've made so many mistakes.
And Dani's made her own.

You can't keep blaming a
screwed up family life forever.

You taught me that, remember?

Maybe the best thing
you can do is just

let Cley do his job.

No. No, no, no, no, no. You
know how Cley handles things.

Anything could happen. She
could be dead on the street.

Nina, she's my daughter.

Dylan? Dylan!

You gotta get out
of here, right now.

Where're we going?
Look, not we. You.

Look, I'm working with
the government, sort of.

Look, a tac team is gonna bust
down your door and arrest you.

You gotta go.

I trusted you.

And I'm here to make it right.
We don't have much time.

Okay, okay. Just let
me grab some stuff.

Dylan?

What the hell?

April! April!

Oh, my God. You're the source.

He's mine. I'm his Alpha now.

No, we're getting out of here.

We are leaving. No...

Come on. We're gonna
get you out of here.

But I want to be with
him. He's using you.

He's going to kill you.

She'll be fine, Kitty Kat.

She's my golden goose.

I'll take care of her, just
like I took care of you.

Oh! Oh!

You're such a boy scout.

You're always getting
pissed off about something.

And I always find
you after you forget.

We'll do this again.
We always do.

A couple of months from
now, you'll be back in my bed.

Kat! Kat!

Oh! Kat, come
on. Get up. Get up.

You weren't answering your
ear bud, so I came for you.

I've got your six.
Oh, thanks, Gary.

He's getting away. I called the
police but they're not here yet.

Oh, no! Don't do
that! Don't do drugs!

Come on. Kat, that's drugs.

Don't do drugs!

Bill said no drugs, Kat.

Come on, kick in.

Come on.

Screw it.

Oh! Oh! Reconsider, oh! Oh! Oh!

Never touch me again.

Well, uh, have a good flight.

See you, babe. Yeah.

Come on.

Hey, hey. Easy, tiger. Excuse.

Easy.

I didn't have anything with him.

I was just a piece of Alpha ass.

Well, the good thing is you won't even
remember in a couple of weeks, right?

Yeah, that's the problem.
I'm the perfect mark.

Who knows what the hell he had
me learn to make him a few bucks?

Well, according to him, he could
never get you to do anything too crazy.

Just pick a couple pockets
or re-wire some alarms.

You beat that out of him?

No. I told him that I'd give
you another shot at him.

Thanks.

For a second, I thought that
thing actually meant something.

Probably wasn't even mine.

It's yours now. Why don't you let that be
a memento of your first time undercover?

All right?

Oh, no, no, no. Um...

Come on. Come on,
Kat. No, no, no, no.

You shouldn't do that.
That's inappropriate.

You don't squeeze other agents.

Good thing I'm not a
real agent then, huh?

Speaking of which,

I can no longer send an
untrained and undisciplined

civilian into the field.

Quantico. It's the FBI academy.

Now, normally this program
takes about two years to complete.

I pulled some strings and I think
you can tackle it in about two weeks.

Oh, thank you! Oh, thank
you, thank you, thank you!

Uh... I hear a
yes. Is that a yes?

Oh, you, too, Gary! Oh,
no. No. Don't do that to me.

No, I don't like that.
You're squeezing my six.

Come on, grow up.

Dad. What... What
are you doing here?

He isn't coming, Dani.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Parish, he's not coming.

I sent the message.

You think you know
everything. No. No, I don't.

You don't know him.

You don't know me.

Well, I know enough right now

to know that if you keep...

I was on the street
when he found me.

I was nothing.

I was screwing guys
for a bag of dope.

Dad. $10. Hey,
that's... That's who I am.

I'm you father, Dani.
That's why I am here.

I want to help you.

I don't need your help.

I didn't do this to hurt you.

He said he would bring us together.
That's never going to happen.

Please, Dani,
don't run. Don't...

What did you do?

I just need you to be safe.

Dani, I need to see your hands.

Dani, show me your hands.

John, the guns aren't necessary.

Dr. Rosen, I've got this.

Back off!

Dani, I have to take
you into custody now.

I want you to put your hands on
your head. I want you to lay face down.

What in the hell
is wrong with you?

Cameron... You turned her in!

Please understand.

If I'd had any other option,
I would have exercised it.

She's your kid! You're
supposed to protect her.

God!

You were supposed
to protect her.

I just really feel like I
should have seen it.

None of us did.

I mean, not even Rosen.

He must be heartbroken.

No, hearts don't really break.

They can stop and they can leak.

But it can't really break.

It just... It gets tired. It
gives up after awhile.

Dani, I know how difficult
this must be for you.

No. No, it's a relief.

Huh?

Dad, can you do
something for me? Of course.

Tell them to put me
in Building Seven.

Put a chip in my head.

Oh, God, Dani...

Please, Dad.

Oh, my God, no...
I just want to forget.

I want to disappear. No.

You're not gonna do that.

Dani, that's not
going to happen.

This... This isn't
the end, Dani. It's...

There's an opportunity here.

Yes, yes. There is a way out.

I don't want a way out.

Will you please listen? Please?

Please, Dani.

Please?
