Colony (2016–2018): Season 2, Episode 2 - Somewhere Out There - full transcript

Previously on "colony"...

- Good morning, smaller bowmans.
- Hey, Devon.

I think she's
gotten her hands dirty.

but I can't defend myself?

We're outside the colony,
aren't we?

- We're locked in here.
- What if we aren't?

- Hands up! On your knees.
- Get down. Give me your hands.

Come on. Let's go. Move!

- Mom.
- Bram.

Can dad get me out of here?

Dad's at Santa Monica.



This will get you through
the Santa Monica gateway.

Go find your son.

I'm looking for a boy.
His name's Charlie.

I heard he works for Solomon.

I need your help.

What is that? Is it, um...

kind of sounds like music.

It can't be.

Houston, are you
still receiving us?

We're on the dark side.
Lost line of sight.

That was strange.
Are we recording?

Yes, sir.

It must be uhf interference
bouncing off the atmosphere.

That's not interference.



My god. Look at that.

What the hell is that?

Houston...

so, we were able to isolate
the sound they were hearing.

I ordered a rudimentary
analysis on the music.

- And?
- Seems to have

mathematical structure,

but otherwise inconclusive.

Some kind of message.

We need to send a response.

But how?

Maybe that thing is
some kind of beacon.

- I'm here to see my son.
- Not today.

- I have papers.
- We're on lockdown.

Come back tomorrow morning.

Please. He's 16. I just need
to know that he's okay.

- Name?
- Bram bowman.

He's been moved out of the zone.

The factory?

I don't know. All it says is
he's in transit.

I showed you
my documentation already!

Thank you.

No, stay with me.

Stay with me!

- Next.
- Stand right there.

I haven't seen your ID yet.

I'm here to see maddie kenner.

I have a Katie bowman
here for you.

Thank you.

Can I see your papers?

Hands on the gate.

- You, out of line.
- Legs spread.

Go ahead. Move on.

Next! Bags on the table.

Hey, mom.

Hey, sweet girl.
Do you know where your aunt is?

- She's upstairs.
- Good morning, Mrs. bowman.

You look... Damp.

Maddie? Mad?

- What's wrong?
- They transferred bram.

What? That's impossible.

I just came
from the holding facility.

I mean, it's... it's the factory.
Wait, wait, wait.

There's no other place
he could go.

- Stop, stop, stop.
- There's no other place...

stop. You cannot think that way.

Maddie, they send people
to the factory

for sneezing in the wrong place.

They caught my son going
under the wall.

Katie, listen to me.

Nolan is on our side.

He knows that bram is
a good kid.

Let me just talk to him
and find out what is going on.

Sweetheart.

Honey.

I'm so scared.

I know. Just try to stay calm.

I will get him out.

I promise you.

Okay?

- Yeah.
- It's gonna be okay.

Okay.

Good.

Let's start with this one.

Are you ready for the rest
of our lesson?

Okay.

All right, Gracie.
Time to get your stuff.

We aren't finished
with our lesson.

Please, mom. Can I stay?

Yeah.

Just promise me that aunt maddie
will have you home before dark.

- Yes?
- Okay.

So, what are you doing
in Santa Monica?

Charlie got trapped
on this side of the wall.

Jesus.

Yeah.

So, how's the rest
of the family holding up?

Fine.

How'd you get through the wall?

I took a job with the occupation

so I could look for Charlie.

They gave me a pass.

- When?
- I got here a couple weeks ago.

And you decide to wait
till after you get stabbed

to come find me?

I didn't want to get you
caught up in this mess.

It's your son, will.

What the hell happened
on this bloc?

It's like "black hawk down"
out there.

They didn't have
enough redhats on the ground

after the arrival.

Shit got worse and worse

until the occupation cut a deal
with the warlords.

Now they pretty much
stick to the green zone

and let the rest of us
rot down here.

And this is where
Charlie has been living.

Will you help me find him?

Of course.

You got any leads?

I think he's in a street gang,

working for a warlord
named Solomon.

Shit.

That bad?

At least he's
usually willing to deal.

But we got to get
in his front door first.

How do we do that?

Go find someone.

Just like old times.

We got a few more here, come on.

Back up or you don't get any!
Here it is, look!

So sorry. We are out. We will
open up tomorrow at 8:00 A.M.

Stay back!

Your new boss wants to see you.

He's expecting you.

Jennifer McMahon.

I'm Dan Bennett.

Sit.

You've been here
since the beginning.

- That's right.
- An eventful ride.

Tell me about the former members
of your team.

Will and Beau?

It's my understanding will got
a transit pass

from former proxy snyder

and went through the wall.

Beau seems to have disappeared.

What do you think happened
to him?

I don't know.

Do you have a theory?

No, sir.

I'm sure you understand
that their behavior might

raise questions
about your own loyalty.

I've been sent here
because this office has failed

to live up to the standards
of the authority.

My job is to catch broussard
and his fellow terrorists.

We also must recover an object
that belongs to our hosts,

which means I need officers
I can trust.

If you give me the chance,

you'll see what I can bring
to the team.

I understand the value
of continuity,

so you will get the chance
to prove yourself.

Otherwise, you'll be assigned

to duties more appropriate
to your skill set.

You should know...

I'm not a patient man.

Hey.

Hey.

Did you find bram?

Yeah. He's being processed.

What does that mean?

Is he going to the factory?

I don't know.

We have to help him.

Maybe.

What we have to do is
remember the consequences

if we stick our necks out
too far.

He committed a crime.
He's just a kid.

That kid went under the wall.

Anyway, if he gets sent
to the factory,

there's nothing I can do
about it.

Is that... that's just it?

You're just gonna
let this happen?

Will you just drop it?

You know, one day,

either you or Hudson...
You're gonna need something,

and I'd hate to find ourselves
up the creek

because we cashed in
all our chips here.

Look. I'll do whatever I can
to help bram.

Just know that whatever I do,

they can use it
to question our loyalty,

and right now, we have
so many big things in the works.

Your initiation ceremony
tomorrow.

Everybody's gonna see
that you're being welcomed

into the circle,

and I don't want to blow that.

Look. I know you love
your family.

It's one of the things
I love about you.

Just...

Promise me...

- Anything.
- That you will do

everything you can
to keep bram out of the factory.

I promise. You have my word.

- I promise.
- Okay.

What's the plan?

Solomon wants someone.

We grab them.
You get your meeting.

I get a reward.

Works out for everyone.

You're a bounty hunter.

Same thing we used to do,
just without the badge.

- Who's the target?
- A woman.

Another guy tried
to pick her up.

Didn't work out for him.

What... is she la femme nikita?

Nah. Former teacher.
Preschool, I think.

Her husband, on the other hand,
he has a bit of a temper.

Go inside.
Say you want to see Jacobs.

The target should be holed up
in apartment 2b.

You aren't coming with me?

No. The spotters will
recognize my face,

and they'll warn her.

I'll be two minutes after you.

Give me your gun.

What? Why?

In case you're searched.

They'll think you're a
bounty hunter if you're packing.

We need her alive.

I'm looking for...

let him go!

Easy.

Son of a bitch.

Preschool teacher?

That's what I heard.
Jesus, when did you get so soft?

You can't sew for shit.

- Hey.
- Got the last one on your list.

Always glad
to close out the month.

You get a partner?

Maybe. Just trying him out.

That's funny. I always saw you
as the lone wolf type.

Bring her in.

Happy hunting.

What's going on?

Step back, ma'am.

Yeah, I'm with homeland.
This is my house.

What is this?
I work for homeland!

Who ordered you
to search my house?

Did you find anything?

No. It's clean.

We're done. Have a good night.

Let's wrap it up.

This is it.

They're taking us
to the factory.

You don't know that.

What did you do?

Went under the wall.

Listen up!
We're removing your cuffs.

Stay seated until you're ordered
off the bus.

What did you do in the bloc?

I worked on a road crew.

And you?

I teach high school.

Get back on the bus.

No, no, I have skills. I can...

Get him out of here.

- How old are you?
- 20.

- What did you do on the bloc?
- Construction.

What kind of construction?

Demo, mostly. But my last job
was laying concrete.

Move it!

- Go on now.
- Let's go, come on!

Right here.

Three right here. Let's go.

Pick it up. Let's go!

You have been assigned to one
of the authority's labor camps

and distribution centers.

We are responsible
for making sure

supplies reach
their correct destination.

If you break a rule,

if you steal anything...

I will hurt you.

And if you do it again,
you will go to the factory.

We are always watching.

What are you doing here?

I want to see Solomon.

Get your hands off me!

Come on.

Keep coming.

Weapons in the box.

Come on.

You look familiar.

Yeah. You stabbed me.

Yeah.

No hard feelings.

Hey. Devon's got something
for you.

There's my girl.

Did you bring me something nice?

You are a goddamn bloodhound.

Quota keeps going up.

You are gonna be
rolling in business.

And who the hell is he?

He wants to trade.

What kind of trade?

My son Charlie.

I lost him during the arrival.

That's a sad story.

I heard he might be running
in one of your gangs.

Well, he's a good looking boy.

But I meet a lot of people.

I've got a transit pass.

Then show me.

You know, what's to stop me
from just killing you

and keeping the pass?

Because it'd be bad
for business.

People come to you knowing
that you'll make a fair trade.

See, that's the thing. I...

I think I'd be losing
on the deal.

I mean, sure, this valuable,

but your son Charlie...
He's a very special kid.

Do you know where he is?

Sure.

I know everything there is
to know about your boy.

He's got the face of an angel
and the heart of a thief.

He's been one of my best
performers.

Of course,
it wasn't always like that.

He was a very...

Well, he's got
a mind of his own.

We had to break him of that.

Do we have a deal?

Are you angry?

Well, ask yourself a question,
tough guy.

Where have you been
for the last year?

Your son would've died on the
streets if it wasn't for me.

So I'd like to hear
a little goddamn gratitude.

And then maybe we can
make a deal.

If I get to see my boy,

I'd be grateful to you
for the rest of my life.

Dino,

where's Charlie?

In the alley,

near 28th.

In the alley near 28th.

Hey. A little word to the wise:

The street changes a kid.

So don't blame him if he doesn't
want to go with you.

No. No, please.

Please don't!

Help! Somebody!

Help me!

Charlie!

Hello?

Katie, I have good news.

Thank god. I've been dying.

Nolan managed to get bram
off the bus to the factory

and transferred
into a labor camp.

That's the good news?

It's outside the walls,
but not too far.

And it's not the factory.

Mad, I got to get him back.

I know.

I promise Nolan is doing
everything he can.

But it might take a while.

You just need to be patient,
okay?

Okay.

Thank you.

Was that about bram?

Yeah.

He's gonna be okay.

We just...

We might not see him
for a little while.

Why? What is he doing?

He has to work
outside the walls.

Is he helping prepare
for the greatest day?

Why are you so interested
in the greatest day?

Lindsay says working to
prepare for the greatest day is

what makes you a good person.

You don't need Lindsay

or the greatest day

to be good, love.

I thought that maybe daddy
and bram haven't been

coming home because I haven't
been working hard enough.

Of course not.

Hey. Look at me.

This is not your fault.

Then whose fault is it?

You excited
to see bram and Gracie?

I guess.

We're in a new house.

But we moved over
all your stuff.

You even got your own room.

Did someone hurt you?

Charlie?

I'm fine.

Okay.

I'll let you eat.

Kids are resilient.

You just have to give it time.

Yeah.

The guy at the pen said
they were closing out a month.

And then Solomon mentioned
a quota,

which apparently keeps going up.

You know something.

It's just rumors.

Supposedly the warlord
and the occupation made a deal.

As long as the warlords
turn over a certain number

of people every month,

the redhats don't mess
with them.

What happens to the people?

They go to the factory?

Then why isn't this bloc at war?

Why aren't people fighting
for their lives?

Like I said, it's just rumors.

Nobody knows the truth.

If you strip away the bullshit,

is that the occupation
really wants?

A constant stream of people
for the factory?

That's above my pay grade.

I'm just trying to stay alive.

Why didn't you tell me
the truth about the pen?

'Cause I knew you'd be
all conflicted

about turning over that woman

if you knew she was going
to the factory.

It was the only way
we could get to Solomon.

I'm not the man I was.

I learned you got to do things
to survive in this world.

Make compromises.

Yeah.

- Hey!
- What do you think...

Charlie! Charlie!

Come here!
What do you think you're doing

- stealing stuff?
- Get off of me!

- Charlie!
- Stop it!

He tried to run away.

What?

Were you trying to go back
to Solomon?

so quick to make that trade
with us.

Why? Why would you want
to go back there?

Look at his ankle.

Come here. Come here.

- What are those?
- Nothing!

- It's not nothing.
- I tried to run away.

Solomon put me on the chain.
I learned.

What else did he do to you?

I came to take you home,
Charlie.

You're never going
back to that place...

Solomon told me I had to go
back or he'll hurt me.

He won't hurt you.
I won't let him.

- He'll hurt my friends.
- No, he won't.

I won't let anything happen
to your friends.

- Then he'll hurt you!
- No, he won't.

Charlie.

I can take care of myself.

I'll be right back.
You'll be safe here with Devon.

Hey. No.

Are you
out of your goddamn mind?

What's gonna happen to Charlie
if you get yourself killed?

Watch the kid.

Nolan.

Katie.

Is this an ambush?

If it was an ambush,
I'd be wearing a mask.

It's all right.
Give us a second.

I... i wanted to talk to you
about bram.

I can't tell you how sorry I
was to hear about his situation.

Thank you. I just wondered

if there was anything else
that you can do for him.

- Maddie didn't talk to you?
- She did.

I just... i thought maybe
if I spoke with you directly...

I made a lot of calls, Katie.

And the bottom line is
if bram behaves himself,

he'll be transferred back
eventually.

I'm really sorry that there's
nothing more I can do.

It's just... it's above my head.

I think there is more
that you could do.

I think you don't want to.

Do I need to remind you

your son got himself
into this situation?

By going under a wall
that aliens put up to pen us in.

That's a crime? He's a kid.

I'll be praying for the safe
reunification of your family.

Have a great day.

Keep moving.

Come on, keep moving.

Hey. Do you want to come eat
with my friends?

Sure.

This is the guy
I was telling you about.

The one that snuck
under the wall.

How'd you get under the wall?

- Guard's coming.
- Shut up!

One of my guys saw him
steal it from the docks.

You're willing
to go to the factory

for a screwdriver?

Let's go.

How dare you?

What?

You went behind my back
to Nolan.

No, maddie. It wasn't like that.

It was... it wasn't like that.

What if I did something
like that to you and will?

How would you feel?

I'm sorry.

I'm desperate.

Do you not trust me?

Or do you just not understand
boundaries?

I deserve an answer.

Maybe I didn't believe

that you would push Nolan
hard enough.

Nolan can protect us

because he knows
how to play the game.

He is gonna help bram...
that's what I'm talking about.

- He just has to be smart...
- It's a game to Nolan.

For Christ's sake, Katie,
this isn't about you!

You run around doing
whatever you want,

and damn the consequences.

I'm trying
to keep my family together!

How's that working out for you?

This. This is why you're alone.

I... I'm gonna send Gracie
back down to you.

You are about to enter
a select group.

The question for humanity is not
where we have been.

It's where we are going.

Are you prepared
to accept that truth?

Yes, I am.

Will you safeguard the secrets
of our movement,

even from friends and family?

And do you accept
that the punishment

for violating you oaths

will fall not just upon you,

but upon everyone you love?

- I do.
- Then rise, maddie kenner,

and receive your welcome
into the greatest day.

Welcome.

It's time.

I am so proud of you.

Jennifer.

You need to work for me.

What?

I know what you've been doing,

and I have the evidence.

Lots of it.

Please lower your voice.

Will basically admitted it,
you know,

before he went through the wall

or whatever the hell he did.

Drink that.

What is it with you and will
and the whiskey?

Why can't you drink something
that doesn't taste

like lighter fluid?

What do you want from me?

Broussard.

I have no contact with him.

I don't believe you.

But it's true.

And if I try and reach out
to him,

he will know
that I've been compromised.

And it's gonna fall on you.

I've made mistakes.

God knows.

Right now,
I just want to be a mother

to the one child I have left.

I know that you and will
were friends.

I know he trusted you.

Please don't destroy
what remains of his family.

Yo.

Lookit, lookit.

What's up, man?

Did you lose another kid?

I'm here to see Solomon.

Get your ass out of here
before I stab you again.

Okay. Okay.

Aah!!

Son of a b...

I'm Charlie's father.

Come with me. You'll be safe.

Come with me.

Wait!
