Continuum (2012–2015): Season 2, Episode 4 - Second Skin - full transcript
Travis' faction of Liber8 has taken to blowing up tanker trucks of gas and oil. It's an effective public relations move and the public is buying into it. Alec believes another time traveler has arrived in Vancouver and Kiera is intent on finding whoever it is. She is under the watchful eye of CSIS agent Gardiner however. When Kiera finds the time traveler she also finds an old friend and the situation is not quite what she expected. Kiera needs to find her friend's special suit and both Travis and Sonya are looking for it as well. Meanwhile Alec makes a new friend, Emily.
Previously, on Continuum...
Change of plan.
Kiera, you're with Elena
in the chamber.
Kiera!
We both know you're not
what you seem.
And I got a pretty good feeling
that those answers are going
to reveal themselves
as long as someone is watching.
I am done getting
my hands dirty.
He who will not yield
to reason,
will yield to persuasion.
What will you do
when that kind of persuasion
comes looking for you?
Because it will.
Go!
CMS freeze!!!!
Primary target.
Thermal detonators.
Go.
Put your weapons down,
stay where you are.
[Gunfire]
Tango down.
Searching for target.
Target obtained.
Elena?
Tango down.
Mom?
Wanna trade?
Mommy?
Hand me the detonator.
[Gunshot]
(Computer voice): Training
simulation terminated.
Why the hesitation, Cameron?
We acquired the target, sir.
Not good enough.
That's your problem
right there.
They have nothing to do
with this.
We had this, and
then you saw Sam.
I wasn't counting on my son
being used in a SIM like that.
CPS uses your psych eval
against you.
They know your weaknesses.
They think they do.
You didn't give me a chance
to take down Verta.
I saved you.
- You were reckless.
- You froze.
Thanks for the support.
That's what this is, partner,
whether you realize it or not.
Hey, Hi sweetie!
- You heard of Liber8?
- Yeah.
Get out of the truck.
Get out!
Keep your hands up.
This isn't about you.
It's about big oil.
Tell the company you work for
to stop ripping off the people.
Get outta here.
Get outta here!
Let's go!
[Explosion]
[Laughing]
Go, go, go, go!
Another one,
Ladner Trunk Road.
That's seven in four hours.
You've got to be kidding me.
Well, it looks like your pals
have found a new trajectory.
Catch me up.
Well, all the tankers
are owned by Ultra Gas,
they're targeted strikes
and all the drivers
were handed
propaganda material.
That's smart.
Liber8 is trying to gain favour
with the public
by going after companies
they already hate.
They dress themselves up
like Robin Hood,
the public is buying into it.
Social media is actually
rooting for Liber8.
Kiera, are you there?
This is Cameron.
Yeah, I know that.
Uh-huh.
What is with the connection?
That's actually
why I'm calling.
I've been experiencing
this interference issue.
Kiera, listen.
Do you remember the night
that you landed?
Unlikely I'd forget it.
Well, when you crashed through
I knew something was up
even before you called
for back-up.
How?
Random data suddenly
spiked up on my com-channel.
First, I thought it was
static or interference,
but now I know
it came from you.
Random data, what are
you talking about, Alec?
Let's call your arrival
Hiroshima.
You get that?
We do have history in
the future, you know.
Good.
Then you know
what Nagasaki is.
The second bomb
to hit Japan.
You had another data spike.
Boom.
Are you sure?
Sure as I can be.
Someone else's future tech
just tried to access
my network.
Similar to mine?
Another time traveller
is online.
You've got company.
2077.
My time.
My city.
My family.
When terrorists killed
thousands of innocents,
they were condemned to die.
They had other plans.
The time travel device
sent us all back 65 years.
I want to get home,
but I can't be sure
what I will return to
if history is changed.
Their plan?
To corrupt and control
the present
in order to win the future.
What they didn't plan on,
was me.
S02 Ep04
Second Skin
You're positive it originated
from this location?
49.175 North,
122.586 West.
It's as close as I can get.
I've got it, looks like
a garage sale.
You look a little lost.
Ah, well, 49 degrees
North and 122 West,
so no, not lost.
Okay, now I'm lost.
Oh, uh, Kiera Cameron.
Vancouver PD.
Have you seen anyone around
here this morning unusual,
or a little odd, I mean,
besides me?
The person that I'm looking
for might have been wearing
a very distinctive suit.
Copper... reflective...
Most of this stuff is my mom's,
but I do remember
something like that.
Or not.
Or I did, but I sold it.
I wish I could be
more helpful.
It's imperative that
I find that suit.
Could I speak
with your mother?
I mean, you said this stuff
was hers.
I don't know about that.
It may be significant
to the investigation.
If you give me your number,
I'll see.
And that is not just an excuse
to get your number.
People need excuses?
With good looking lady cops?
Usually.
- You might be right.
- Might be?
The data spike:
it may have come from
another suit like mine.
I knew it.
- Thanks!
- Your welcome.
Sorry...
Everything okay?
Yep.
You have to track that spike.
Your timing sucks.
Alec, I need you on this.
I'm barely operational
at my palatial digs,
my mobile unit is a joke...
Okay, so go home.
I hacked into the
Aldergrove weather radar
and paired it with a lighter
network that I'm not supposed
to know about.
It's a weird combo,
but it might work out
if it happens again.
You built a time travel app.
If you have to call it that.
Wait, the traveller's
already here so...
Look, I have to go.
What?
If it happens again,
I'll let you know, okay?
Alec?
- I'm Emily.
- Meet to please you.
Sorry. Alec.
[Laughs]
- Hi.
- Hi, nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
I've seen you in here before.
I come here a lot.
Travis, oh Travis.
Now you are going
after gas stations.
You know once people have
to start lining up for fuel,
they are going to be pissed
at you.
Yeah, he's using the attacks
to spread Kagame's message.
That's too smart for Travis.
You always underestimated him.
Clearly you did as well.
How bad was it?
Well, they hit ten fuel
transports in the mainland
all with the same message:
big oil is enslaving
the people, price gouging,
raping the earth, etcetera.
Tapping into the public's
growing sense of conspiracy.
Yep.
For terrorists, they sure have
a flair for PR.
Think Sonya's behind this?
The violence is more
Travis's domain.
Maybe they got
back together?
I think it's safe to say
they're still on the outs.
Well, whoever's behind this,
they've sure got
the public's attention.
Ah, section six calling?
Actually, no.
You know, it's ok, I'm dating
other police departments, too.
Kiera Cameron.
Hi.
Great.
I'll meet you there.
Let me guess:
going somewhere?
Gotta see a guy
about a suit.
Um, it feels weird.
Well, get out here
and show me.
I could just use my med uniform,
maybe throw a tux jacket
over it?
Come on!
That's fantastic!
It's a dead ringer for
Captain Armstrong's suit!
It's a bit tight.
We call that form-fitting.
Okay.
It is Patrick's big day,
what if he goes as Armstrong?
Patrick told me he's going
to be General Carter.
He can't resist
those medals.
Best five bucks
I ever spent!
I don't know.
I think maybe Junior Medical
Officer Keaton,
that's more my speed.
Be the hero, baby.
You're mine.
And if you can't trust your
second Lieutenant Rosara,
then who can you trust?
I need to know you have
my back, Rosara.
You know I do, Captain, and
when you're ready for more...
Save it for the debrief...
How long has your mother
suffered from Alzheimer's?
Six years.
The doctor says she's
done pretty well, considering.
She's still there, you know.
But sometimes I'm her son,
other times...
But this is palliative care.
She in liver failure now.
That's why we're here.
I really appreciate you
letting me come visit.
Hopefully it's a good night.
She really perked up
when I mentioned
you were looking for this suit.
Hi Mom, I brought that police
officer we talked about.
Hi, Mrs. Stanton.
How are you feeling today?
Partner!
Yeah.
You look just the same,
Kiera.
Elena?
What took you so long?
In the first months I looked for
anyone else from the execution chamber
that might have come
through with me but...
no one.
No one.
When did you get here?
1975.
You look like everybody else,
you sound like everybody else,
but you're a freak.
Time traveller?
No one understands,
who can you tell?
But you must have, I mean,
you got married...
I never told.
I wanted to be normal.
And my husband, he gave me
that and so much more.
What about your husband,
Kiera, and Sam?
Didn't they come with you?
Elena, when you came through,
you were wearing
your CPS uniform, right?
- Yes.
- Yes, so...
I took it out kayaking,
you know?
I've loved that since
I was a kid.
I went out this morning.
You alright, mom?
Hmm.
♪
He swore he was going
to be Mederic.
♪
[Cheering and Applause]
♪
- Captain?
- Oh, at ease General.
I think I out-rank you.
You may be in charge of
this wedding, General,
but I booked the restaurant.
Glad you're here.
Dude, it's your big day!
Two cutest assassins
in the room.
You guys um...
Oh, well, you know...
every time she comes over,
I'm still surprised.
Rex, the girl loves you.
I'm a college drop out.
A guy who runs a dry-cleaning
store.
I don't think so.
She sees the man.
I'm glad she does.
Rex!
Ah! I'm on fire!
- Rex!
- Get some water!
Aaah!
Come on!
- You alright?
- Yeah!
I am!
I'm fine.
Oh, you're so stupid!
[Laughs]
What's the problem?
I'm not sure and
that's what worries me.
She was always mysterious
about her background.
Said her life really started
when she met my dad.
That's sweet.
How do you know her?
Our mothers were friends.
Elena helped out my mother
more times than I can count.
But she recognized you.
They probably kept in touch.
So, she got married,
had a family...
Four kids.
Once we were all in school,
so was she.
She studied urban planning,
then went to work for the city.
He's boasting about me.
Because you deserve it.
I deserve chocolate.
I'm old, and I'm cranky,
and I want chocolate.
I'm on it, mom.
My eldest.
The younger ones are
all married with kids.
Do you have it on?
Almost always.
Does it make you feel safe?
Elena, Alec Sadler is here.
He's a teenage boy.
You're shitting me.
We connected the night
I came through.
Suddenly, he was just...
in my head.
All the time you were here,
you never heard anything?
I turned my CMR off years ago,
felt like it was always looking
for voices that weren't there.
It drained me.
I could have never made it
through four kids
with that thing turned on.
What about your suit?
I put it away in
a box somewhere.
I'm sorry.
You couldn't have known.
We hit all five targets.
Good.
Make sure they're in and out
in 10 minutes
before the cops can react.
Hey, we were professionals
before you bought the franchise.
I...
I still think we should have
it looked at.
It's fine, I'm fine.
No, it's weird.
What kind of material
doesn't burn?
There are all kinds of flame
retardant materials out there.
I guess you'd know.
Dry-cleaning god that I am?
That's not what I meant.
[grunts]
Hey!
I'm calling the cops.
Get rid of this guy.
Go!
I hate heroes.
You better get going, hero.
Rex! Oh my god!
Rex!
Oh, Rexy!
Oh you're such a bad dog!
[Gunshots]
[Screams]
Go closer!
Get an ambulance!
I want that.
And get me those plates.
Say please.
What's it mean?
Remember, I found a way
to track the Protector
but she shut us down...
That code disruption.
At first I thought
it was Cameron
but these data packets come
from a different source.
Someone else?
Kagame came through
weeks after us.
This could be someone else
from the execution chamber.
Find them.
Travis is choosing
his targets well.
It's like you two never
broke up.
I don't condone
the violence.
But the message
doesn't suck.
It's like he's trying to send
you little love notes.
I doubt that.
You're really good to her.
She deserves it.
She's always been there
for me.
You know?
The suit is active again.
I've got coordinates.
Have a good night.
Goodnight.
Those guys were off their meds.
It was chaos in here!
Then, the guy walks in,
takes two shots to the chest,
and walks away.
The place would have
blown up if he wasn't here.
He saved my life!
Was he wearing something
that resembled a uniform?
Form-fitting, shiny?
I don't know about that,
but he sparked like
an electrical storm
when that asshole shot him.
Hey, hey, hey,
is he that superhero
that's taking down Liber8?
Was that him?
Was it, Miss Cameron?
Someone wearing
a super suit?
Did you ever hear of anything
like that?
Look at this ass clown.
I mean, you can clearly see
his Syndicate tattoo
right there on his arm.
I think I liked Travis more
when anarchy was his end goal.
He could really score some
points with this endeavor.
Looks like Sonya might be
rubbing off on him.
He's still got his wild side:
beatings, weapons...
There's our hero.
Excuse me.
I thought you said there was
only one event.
Missed one.
You gotta get your head
in the game, Alec.
You mean your game?
Alec, track down the suit.
Alec, find the bad guys.
You know how powerful
these suits are.
I don't need you to tell me
about something I invented.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
Is there any way we could
track the suit
if the owner wasn't wearing it?
Well, the suit has certain
latent functions on its own.
Something called a positional
contact relay.
It's basically like
a homing beacon.
It'll pin the user's CMR
and it'll triangulate
the suit's location.
What if it's out of power?
That's doubtful, I mean these
suits can draw a charge
from any power source
they come in contact with.
Even kinetic energy
can be absorbed.
Can we turn it on with
some sort of remote?
Let me guess:
someone's standing
right beside you?
Oh crap.
Exactly.
So?
Well, if you can find
the actual traveller,
and get them to turn on
their CMR,
then we could link it to the
suit and send a steady signal.
Any idea how to find them?
I'll call you back.
Gotta go visit a sick friend.
[cell phone buzzing]
[chuckles]
Your garage sale guy did not
know what he was selling.
Maybe he did.
You gonna give me one
of your Rozara speeches?
Captain, save the jokes
for the epilogue?
This is not a TV show.
This is your life.
You were shot!
And now you think
you're invulnerable
because of that stupid costume!
You saw what happened.
The wedding?
I should have been burned!
When I put the thing on,
something happens,
something bigger than me,
I saved that guy's life!
What about yours?
Okay, look.
It was a fluke.
I'll get rid of it.
Okay.
It just feels like the world's
gone crazy.
Make sure you don't.
What do you want?
Well, you shouldn't have
to drive alone
to see a sick friend.
Look.
We have mutual interests:
stopping Liber8,
restoring order...
Why don't we just help
each other?
I don't think our methods
are compatible.
I'm sure you could talk
to your Mr. Escher
and tell him know I'm one of
the good guys, no?
Ah, so it's Escher
you really want.
Well, he's the one pulling
your strings, isn't he?
You seem to think so.
Tell you what, let's drive over
to Pyron Corps right now,
we can all sit around
and talk about Section 6?
Maybe after I visit
my sick friend.
You're connected
to these terrorists.
Maybe just in the way
that a good agent
becomes close to whoever
he or she is tracking.
But, until you get truthful
with me,
we're gonna be spending
a lot of time together.
Hmm.
Our first date.
It's not starting well.
Well, next time
I'll bring flowers.
Come on.
Beth!
Oh Beth, you brought
your husband.
Yes I did!
He really wanted to say hi.
Didn't you, honey?
It's so good to see you,
you look well.
Are you still a marine
biologist, Ben?
I remember the dolphins.
So pink.
Mmm hmm, in China
well they're so memorable.
I'll be outside.
Excuse me.
You are sharp as a tack.
Who's the asshole?
Federal agent.
- He thinks I'm special.
- He's right.
Listen, partner.
I think Liber8 knows
about your suit.
I can't let them get
their hands on it,
and I need you
to help me find it.
I don't know what I can do
from this bed.
Can you turn on your CMR?
If you can connect
with the suit,
Alec can trace it, it's like
a homing beacon.
Turn it on...
it didn't feel good.
I know it makes you nervous,
but when we were together
during the wars,
I always felt safer with you
as my partner.
It's been too long.
You were always
the strong one.
Not anymore.
It scares me.
I know.
But I'm right here with you.
Alright.
Do it.
Go ahead, Alec.
You sure?
Yeah.
What about your
new boyfriend?
I can handle him.
Okay, here goes.
I'm cycling all other CMRs.
Elena?
I forgot how it feels.
It's so powerful.
When I find the suit,
I'll switch it off.
There it is, I've got it.
I'll get an address.
Sonya, it's live again.
You do have a partner.
Carlos is my partner.
He's a good cop.
I'll be the judge of that,
when I meet him.
I'll see what I can do.
You should go.
You ready to lay down
some cover?
Deal me in.
Yes, everyone.
Where is she?
Where is she?
Escher?
You're looking for Escher,
the mystery man?
You don't know anything.
I'm here, she's not.
You wanna roll the dice?
Come on out, hero.
Strip down now,
I'll go easier on you.
[fighting grunts]
Pretty hand,
shame to detach it.
[fighting grunts]
[Gunshots]
Are you hurt?
Well, you shot me!
Yes, but you're not hurt.
Perfect.
That suit won't protect
you forever.
Drop the gun.
This again.
You're not gonna shoot me.
You'd have already
pulled that trigger.
You've been busy.
Take off the suit,
you might live!
You don't need
that uniform.
Need. Want.
Semantics.
[fighting grunts]
[Gunshots]
[fighting grunts]
Ahh!
Put it down, and
you get to walk away.
Is that what you told Travis
before you shot him?
You're a lot smarter than I
give you credit for, Garza.
It's not too late
to reconsider.
You made my bed,
I like lying in it.
I don't want to hurt you.
[Gunshots]
Shit!
[fighting grunts]
[fighting grunts]
Let's move!
[Gunshots]
[Gunshots]
We gotta go!
[Gunshots]
Dammit!
Civilian down, I need
an ambulance.
Suspect is heading East
from 95 Parker.
You've got one, too?
Shh, it's okay.
You're gonna be okay.
Rest. We're getting you help.
I thought it would make me
a hero.
You don't need a suit
for that.
Okay, okay, alright,
okay, okay, okay...
Okay, I'm just going
to open the...
[crying]
Rex, you okay?
Ma'am. Agent Gardner.
Where's the suit?
Where's the suit?
Was he wearing the suit?
- Go away!
- Was he wearing the suit?!
- Stop!
- Don't shout at her.
Save it for the debrief.
Here you go.
You're bringing this here?
Is this some sort of elaborate
attempt to get rid of me?
I deactivated it,
there's no signal.
I knew you'd wanna play
with it.
Plus, I don't think this place
is on Liber8's radar,
so you should be safe.
This place is only temporary.
How temporary?
I don't know, we'll see.
Look, I kinda have
some stuff to do.
Like what?
Alright...
You have a life.
Trying to.
♪
Alec!
Hey!
Hey, sorry I'm late.
No, I just got here myself.
What?
You lost a bet, right?
You forgot to save a country
from a burgeoning debt crisis
and this was your punishment?
To date below your level?
Right, because smart and funny
is such a step down.
Do I really seem like I'd date
a jock kind of girl to you?
I don't know, I'm just thinking
about the fact
you called me smart and funny.
Oh, but there's plenty
of time for you
to disabuse me of that notion.
Well, I'll give it
my best shot.
I guess you drink coffee?
Um, yes...
What kind of coffee?
Are you sure this is okay?
Yeah, just a heads up,
she's a little scattered,
she might say some things
that don't make sense
but she insisted
on meeting you.
I think she wants
to check you out.
Sounds like a good friend.
She's more than a friend.
Thanks for the support.
That's what partners do.
Hi.
It's okay.
Dan, this is
Detective Fonnegra.
- Nice to meet you.
- Likewise.
We managed to get most
of the family here,
she knew us all.
Remembered everything.
Never checked out,
not even for a second.
She came back for most
of the night.
But she wasn't even
that sick?
The doctors said that
kind of resurgence
isn't unusual
just before death.
- I'm so sorry.
- Don't be.
We had a beautiful goodbye.
You were a tonic for her.
I don't know if that's true.
She said you should
have this.
She must have read it
a dozen times.
Only connect.
It's a little sermon, really,
about ending isolation.
She wanted you to know
that she loved her life,
and you can too.
Excuse me.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Sure you don't want to go
out there with them?
Who would have imagined,
he has such a beautiful family.
Am I ever going to meet
your family?
You have no idea how much
I would love that.
Have you seen your son
lately?
Yeah, I see him
all the time.
Change of plan.
Kiera, you're with Elena
in the chamber.
Kiera!
We both know you're not
what you seem.
And I got a pretty good feeling
that those answers are going
to reveal themselves
as long as someone is watching.
I am done getting
my hands dirty.
He who will not yield
to reason,
will yield to persuasion.
What will you do
when that kind of persuasion

Because it will.

Hey, Hi sweetie!

- Yeah.
Get out of the truck.
Get out!
Keep your hands up.
This isn't about you.
It's about big oil.
Tell the company you work for
to stop ripping off the people.
Get outta here.
Get outta here!
Let's go!
[Explosion]
[Laughing]
Go, go, go, go!
Another one,
Ladner Trunk Road.
That's seven in four hours.
You've got to be kidding me.
Well, it looks like your pals
have found a new trajectory.
Catch me up.
Well, all the tankers
are owned by Ultra Gas,
they're targeted strikes
and all the drivers
were handed
propaganda material.
That's smart.
Liber8 is trying to gain favour
with the public
by going after companies

First, I thought it was
static or interference,
but now I know
it came from you.
Random data, what are
you talking about, Alec?
Let's call your arrival
Hiroshima.
You get that?
We do have history in
the future, you know.
Good.
Then you know
what Nagasaki is.
The second bomb
to hit Japan.
You had another data spike.
Boom.
Are you sure?
Sure as I can be.
Someone else's future tech
just tried to access
my network.
Similar to mine?
Another time traveller
is online.
You've got company.
2077.
My time.
My city.
My family.
When terrorists killed
thousands of innocents,
they were condemned to die.
They had other plans.
The time travel device
sent us all back 65 years.
I want to get home,
but I can't be sure
what I will return to
if history is changed.
Their plan?
To corrupt and control
the present
in order to win the future.
What they didn't plan on,
was me.
S02 Ep04
Second Skin
You're positive it originated
from this location?
49.175 North,
122.586 West.
It's as close as I can get.
I've got it, looks like
a garage sale.
You look a little lost.
Ah, well, 49 degrees
North and 122 West,
so no, not lost.
Okay, now I'm lost.
Oh, uh, Kiera Cameron.
Vancouver PD.
Have you seen anyone around
here this morning unusual,
or a little odd, I mean,
besides me?
The person that I'm looking
for might have been wearing
a very distinctive suit.
Copper... reflective...
Most of this stuff is my mom's,
but I do remember
something like that.
Or not.
Or I did, but I sold it.
I wish I could be
more helpful.
It's imperative that
I find that suit.
Could I speak
with your mother?
I mean, you said this stuff
was hers.
I don't know about that.
It may be significant
to the investigation.
If you give me your number,
I'll see.
And that is not just an excuse
to get your number.
People need excuses?
With good looking lady cops?
Usually.
- You might be right.
- Might be?
The data spike:
it may have come from
another suit like mine.
I knew it.
- Thanks!
- Your welcome.
Sorry...
Everything okay?
Yep.
You have to track that spike.
Your timing sucks.
Alec, I need you on this.
I'm barely operational
at my palatial digs,
my mobile unit is a joke...
Okay, so go home.
I hacked into the
Aldergrove weather radar
and paired it with a lighter
network that I'm not supposed
to know about.
It's a weird combo,
but it might work out
if it happens again.
You built a time travel app.
If you have to call it that.
Wait, the traveller's
already here so...
Look, I have to go.
What?
If it happens again,
I'll let you know, okay?
Alec?
- I'm Emily.
- Meet to please you.
Sorry. Alec.
[Laughs]
- Hi.
- Hi, nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
I've seen you in here before.
I come here a lot.
Travis, oh Travis.
Now you are going
after gas stations.
You know once people have
to start lining up for fuel,
they are going to be pissed
at you.
Yeah, he's using the attacks
to spread Kagame's message.
That's too smart for Travis.
You always underestimated him.
Clearly you did as well.
How bad was it?
Well, they hit ten fuel
transports in the mainland
all with the same message:
big oil is enslaving
the people, price gouging,
raping the earth, etcetera.
Tapping into the public's
growing sense of conspiracy.
Yep.
For terrorists, they sure have
a flair for PR.
Think Sonya's behind this?
The violence is more
Travis's domain.
Maybe they got
back together?
I think it's safe to say
they're still on the outs.
Well, whoever's behind this,
they've sure got
the public's attention.
Ah, section six calling?
Actually, no.
You know, it's ok, I'm dating
other police departments, too.
Kiera Cameron.
Hi.
Great.
I'll meet you there.
Let me guess:
going somewhere?
Gotta see a guy
about a suit.
Um, it feels weird.
Well, get out here
and show me.
I could just use my med uniform,
maybe throw a tux jacket
over it?
Come on!
That's fantastic!
It's a dead ringer for
Captain Armstrong's suit!
It's a bit tight.
We call that form-fitting.
Okay.
It is Patrick's big day,
what if he goes as Armstrong?
Patrick told me he's going
to be General Carter.
He can't resist
those medals.
Best five bucks
I ever spent!
I don't know.
I think maybe Junior Medical
Officer Keaton,
that's more my speed.
Be the hero, baby.
You're mine.
And if you can't trust your
second Lieutenant Rosara,
then who can you trust?
I need to know you have
my back, Rosara.
You know I do, Captain, and
when you're ready for more...
Save it for the debrief...
How long has your mother
suffered from Alzheimer's?
Six years.
The doctor says she's
done pretty well, considering.
She's still there, you know.
But sometimes I'm her son,
other times...
But this is palliative care.
She in liver failure now.
That's why we're here.
I really appreciate you
letting me come visit.
Hopefully it's a good night.
She really perked up
when I mentioned
you were looking for this suit.
Hi Mom, I brought that police
officer we talked about.
Hi, Mrs. Stanton.
How are you feeling today?
Partner!
Yeah.
You look just the same,
Kiera.
Elena?
What took you so long?
In the first months I looked for
anyone else from the execution chamber
that might have come
through with me but...
no one.
No one.
When did you get here?
1975.
You look like everybody else,
you sound like everybody else,
but you're a freak.
Time traveller?
No one understands,
who can you tell?
But you must have, I mean,
you got married...
I never told.
I wanted to be normal.
And my husband, he gave me
that and so much more.
What about your husband,
Kiera, and Sam?
Didn't they come with you?
Elena, when you came through,
you were wearing
your CPS uniform, right?
- Yes.
- Yes, so...
I took it out kayaking,
you know?
I've loved that since
I was a kid.
I went out this morning.
You alright, mom?
Hmm.
♪
He swore he was going
to be Mederic.
♪
[Cheering and Applause]
♪
- Captain?
- Oh, at ease General.
I think I out-rank you.
You may be in charge of
this wedding, General,
but I booked the restaurant.
Glad you're here.
Dude, it's your big day!
Two cutest assassins
in the room.
You guys um...
Oh, well, you know...
every time she comes over,
I'm still surprised.
Rex, the girl loves you.
I'm a college drop out.
A guy who runs a dry-cleaning
store.
I don't think so.
She sees the man.
I'm glad she does.
Rex!
Ah! I'm on fire!
- Rex!
- Get some water!
Aaah!
Come on!
- You alright?
- Yeah!
I am!
I'm fine.
Oh, you're so stupid!
[Laughs]
What's the problem?
I'm not sure and
that's what worries me.
She was always mysterious
about her background.
Said her life really started
when she met my dad.
That's sweet.
How do you know her?
Our mothers were friends.
Elena helped out my mother
more times than I can count.
But she recognized you.
They probably kept in touch.
So, she got married,
had a family...
Four kids.
Once we were all in school,
so was she.
She studied urban planning,
then went to work for the city.
He's boasting about me.
Because you deserve it.
I deserve chocolate.
I'm old, and I'm cranky,
and I want chocolate.
I'm on it, mom.
My eldest.
The younger ones are
all married with kids.
Do you have it on?
Almost always.
Does it make you feel safe?
Elena, Alec Sadler is here.
He's a teenage boy.
You're shitting me.
We connected the night
I came through.
Suddenly, he was just...
in my head.
All the time you were here,
you never heard anything?
I turned my CMR off years ago,
felt like it was always looking
for voices that weren't there.
It drained me.
I could have never made it
through four kids
with that thing turned on.
What about your suit?
I put it away in
a box somewhere.
I'm sorry.
You couldn't have known.
We hit all five targets.
Good.
Make sure they're in and out
in 10 minutes
before the cops can react.
Hey, we were professionals
before you bought the franchise.
I...
I still think we should have
it looked at.
It's fine, I'm fine.
No, it's weird.
What kind of material
doesn't burn?
There are all kinds of flame
retardant materials out there.
I guess you'd know.
Dry-cleaning god that I am?
That's not what I meant.
[grunts]
Hey!
I'm calling the cops.
Get rid of this guy.
Go!
I hate heroes.
You better get going, hero.
Rex! Oh my god!
Rex!
Oh, Rexy!
Oh you're such a bad dog!
[Gunshots]
[Screams]
Go closer!
Get an ambulance!
I want that.
And get me those plates.
Say please.
What's it mean?
Remember, I found a way
to track the Protector
but she shut us down...
That code disruption.
At first I thought
it was Cameron
but these data packets come
from a different source.
Someone else?
Kagame came through
weeks after us.
This could be someone else
from the execution chamber.
Find them.
Travis is choosing
his targets well.
It's like you two never
broke up.
I don't condone
the violence.
But the message
doesn't suck.
It's like he's trying to send
you little love notes.
I doubt that.
You're really good to her.
She deserves it.
She's always been there
for me.
You know?
The suit is active again.
I've got coordinates.
Have a good night.
Goodnight.
Those guys were off their meds.
It was chaos in here!
Then, the guy walks in,
takes two shots to the chest,
and walks away.
The place would have
blown up if he wasn't here.
He saved my life!
Was he wearing something
that resembled a uniform?
Form-fitting, shiny?
I don't know about that,
but he sparked like
an electrical storm
when that asshole shot him.
Hey, hey, hey,
is he that superhero
that's taking down Liber8?
Was that him?
Was it, Miss Cameron?
Someone wearing
a super suit?
Did you ever hear of anything
like that?
Look at this ass clown.
I mean, you can clearly see
his Syndicate tattoo
right there on his arm.
I think I liked Travis more
when anarchy was his end goal.
He could really score some
points with this endeavor.
Looks like Sonya might be
rubbing off on him.
He's still got his wild side:
beatings, weapons...
There's our hero.
Excuse me.
I thought you said there was
only one event.
Missed one.
You gotta get your head
in the game, Alec.
You mean your game?
Alec, track down the suit.
Alec, find the bad guys.
You know how powerful
these suits are.
I don't need you to tell me
about something I invented.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
Is there any way we could
track the suit
if the owner wasn't wearing it?
Well, the suit has certain
latent functions on its own.
Something called a positional
contact relay.
It's basically like
a homing beacon.
It'll pin the user's CMR
and it'll triangulate
the suit's location.
What if it's out of power?
That's doubtful, I mean these
suits can draw a charge
from any power source
they come in contact with.
Even kinetic energy
can be absorbed.
Can we turn it on with
some sort of remote?
Let me guess:
someone's standing
right beside you?
Oh crap.
Exactly.
So?
Well, if you can find
the actual traveller,
and get them to turn on
their CMR,
then we could link it to the
suit and send a steady signal.
Any idea how to find them?
I'll call you back.
Gotta go visit a sick friend.
[cell phone buzzing]
[chuckles]
Your garage sale guy did not
know what he was selling.
Maybe he did.
You gonna give me one
of your Rozara speeches?
Captain, save the jokes
for the epilogue?
This is not a TV show.
This is your life.
You were shot!
And now you think
you're invulnerable
because of that stupid costume!
You saw what happened.
The wedding?
I should have been burned!
When I put the thing on,
something happens,
something bigger than me,
I saved that guy's life!
What about yours?
Okay, look.
It was a fluke.
I'll get rid of it.
Okay.
It just feels like the world's
gone crazy.
Make sure you don't.
What do you want?
Well, you shouldn't have
to drive alone
to see a sick friend.
Look.
We have mutual interests:
stopping Liber8,
restoring order...
Why don't we just help
each other?
I don't think our methods
are compatible.
I'm sure you could talk
to your Mr. Escher
and tell him know I'm one of
the good guys, no?
Ah, so it's Escher
you really want.
Well, he's the one pulling
your strings, isn't he?
You seem to think so.
Tell you what, let's drive over
to Pyron Corps right now,
we can all sit around
and talk about Section 6?
Maybe after I visit
my sick friend.
You're connected
to these terrorists.
Maybe just in the way
that a good agent
becomes close to whoever
he or she is tracking.
But, until you get truthful
with me,
we're gonna be spending
a lot of time together.
Hmm.
Our first date.
It's not starting well.
Well, next time
I'll bring flowers.
Come on.
Beth!
Oh Beth, you brought
your husband.
Yes I did!
He really wanted to say hi.
Didn't you, honey?
It's so good to see you,
you look well.
Are you still a marine
biologist, Ben?
I remember the dolphins.
So pink.
Mmm hmm, in China
well they're so memorable.
I'll be outside.
Excuse me.
You are sharp as a tack.
Who's the asshole?
Federal agent.
- He thinks I'm special.
- He's right.
Listen, partner.
I think Liber8 knows
about your suit.
I can't let them get
their hands on it,
and I need you
to help me find it.
I don't know what I can do
from this bed.
Can you turn on your CMR?
If you can connect
with the suit,
Alec can trace it, it's like
a homing beacon.
Turn it on...
it didn't feel good.
I know it makes you nervous,
but when we were together
during the wars,
I always felt safer with you
as my partner.
It's been too long.
You were always
the strong one.
Not anymore.
It scares me.
I know.
But I'm right here with you.
Alright.
Do it.
Go ahead, Alec.
You sure?
Yeah.
What about your
new boyfriend?
I can handle him.
Okay, here goes.
I'm cycling all other CMRs.
Elena?
I forgot how it feels.
It's so powerful.
When I find the suit,
I'll switch it off.
There it is, I've got it.
I'll get an address.
Sonya, it's live again.
You do have a partner.
Carlos is my partner.
He's a good cop.
I'll be the judge of that,
when I meet him.
I'll see what I can do.
You should go.
You ready to lay down
some cover?
Deal me in.
Yes, everyone.
Where is she?
Where is she?
Escher?
You're looking for Escher,
the mystery man?
You don't know anything.
I'm here, she's not.
You wanna roll the dice?
Come on out, hero.
Strip down now,
I'll go easier on you.
[fighting grunts]
Pretty hand,
shame to detach it.
[fighting grunts]
[Gunshots]
Are you hurt?
Well, you shot me!
Yes, but you're not hurt.
Perfect.
That suit won't protect
you forever.
Drop the gun.
This again.
You're not gonna shoot me.
You'd have already
pulled that trigger.
You've been busy.
Take off the suit,
you might live!
You don't need
that uniform.
Need. Want.
Semantics.
[fighting grunts]
[Gunshots]
[fighting grunts]
Ahh!
Put it down, and
you get to walk away.
Is that what you told Travis
before you shot him?
You're a lot smarter than I
give you credit for, Garza.
It's not too late
to reconsider.
You made my bed,
I like lying in it.
I don't want to hurt you.
[Gunshots]
Shit!
[fighting grunts]
[fighting grunts]
Let's move!
[Gunshots]
[Gunshots]
We gotta go!
[Gunshots]
Dammit!
Civilian down, I need
an ambulance.
Suspect is heading East
from 95 Parker.
You've got one, too?
Shh, it's okay.
You're gonna be okay.
Rest. We're getting you help.
I thought it would make me
a hero.
You don't need a suit
for that.
Okay, okay, alright,
okay, okay, okay...
Okay, I'm just going
to open the...
[crying]
Rex, you okay?
Ma'am. Agent Gardner.
Where's the suit?
Where's the suit?
Was he wearing the suit?
- Go away!
- Was he wearing the suit?!
- Stop!
- Don't shout at her.
Save it for the debrief.
Here you go.
You're bringing this here?
Is this some sort of elaborate
attempt to get rid of me?
I deactivated it,
there's no signal.
I knew you'd wanna play
with it.
Plus, I don't think this place
is on Liber8's radar,
so you should be safe.
This place is only temporary.
How temporary?
I don't know, we'll see.
Look, I kinda have
some stuff to do.
Like what?
Alright...
You have a life.
Trying to.
♪
Alec!
Hey!
Hey, sorry I'm late.
No, I just got here myself.
What?
You lost a bet, right?
You forgot to save a country
from a burgeoning debt crisis
and this was your punishment?
To date below your level?
Right, because smart and funny
is such a step down.
Do I really seem like I'd date
a jock kind of girl to you?
I don't know, I'm just thinking
about the fact
you called me smart and funny.
Oh, but there's plenty
of time for you
to disabuse me of that notion.
Well, I'll give it
my best shot.
I guess you drink coffee?
Um, yes...
What kind of coffee?
Are you sure this is okay?
Yeah, just a heads up,
she's a little scattered,
she might say some things
that don't make sense
but she insisted
on meeting you.
I think she wants
to check you out.
Sounds like a good friend.
She's more than a friend.
Thanks for the support.
That's what partners do.
Hi.
It's okay.
Dan, this is
Detective Fonnegra.
- Nice to meet you.
- Likewise.
We managed to get most
of the family here,
she knew us all.
Remembered everything.
Never checked out,
not even for a second.
She came back for most
of the night.
But she wasn't even
that sick?
The doctors said that
kind of resurgence
isn't unusual
just before death.
- I'm so sorry.
- Don't be.
We had a beautiful goodbye.
You were a tonic for her.
I don't know if that's true.
She said you should
have this.
She must have read it
a dozen times.
Only connect.
It's a little sermon, really,
about ending isolation.
She wanted you to know
that she loved her life,
and you can too.
Excuse me.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Sure you don't want to go
out there with them?
Who would have imagined,
he has such a beautiful family.
Am I ever going to meet
your family?
You have no idea how much
I would love that.
Have you seen your son
lately?
Yeah, I see him
all the time.
