Continuum (2012–2015): Season 3, Episode 11 - 3 Minutes to Midnight - full transcript

Kiera and John Doe confront the harsh realities of their relationship's origins while both are put in danger by a direct attack from Liber8. Meanwhile, family bonds are strengthened as Alec grapples with the fact that his new invention is responsible for Jason's increasingly strange behavior.

KIERA:
Previously on Continuum...

You removed the CMR.

You just trying to
cover up what you did?

Because the Alec Sadler
I know...

The Alec that you met
two years ago is dead.

Or locked away somewhere.

I knew it!

Curtis is the
one that killed me!

You want to
cheat death, Kellog?

Help me,
and I'll teach you how.

Was that Matthew Kellog?



Yes.

I have this vague memory
that he's a big deal.

Bigger than Alec Sadler?

Who's Alec Sadler?

My name is Brad Tonkin.

And I know why I came back.
(SOBBING)

It's like a fog lifted.

WOMAN: Peace of mind.

It comes from knowing that your
people are watching out for you.

Like your family doctor,
your therapist,

your personal trainer,
your nutritionist,

your physiotherapist,

your entire health
and well-being team.

But who can afford all
that specialized care?



You can.

Meet HALO, your health
and lifestyle oracle.

Real-time medical monitoring
and disease prevention

now within reach.

This is what peace of mind looks like.
(KEYBOARD CLICKS)

I'm worried it's overkill.

It's perfect.

We've received pre-orders
beyond our best projections.

When this hits...

I win.

(SIGHS)
Ripped By mstoll

KIERA: Do I know you?

BRAD: I was hoping.

Who am I?

KIERA: I don't know
why I trust you.

For some reason I do.

CURTIS: She wasn't supposed
to be there.

We should have
had more time.

BRAD: Your people don't
have a handle on this.

Kiera?

I have nothing for breakfast.
We ate the last eggs yesterday.

I'm gonna pop downstairs,
ten minutes.

I swear.
Food. Food is coming.

Kiera, it...

(EXHALES)

BRAD: What about
the mission brief?

...fire, burn all timers,
neutralize...

(EXHALING)

(GRUNTS)

(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)

I know you're in here.

Aha! Yeah.

Come on.

Come to Poppa.

(MANIACAL LAUGHTER)

One, two, three, four,
five, six,

seven, eight.

No. No!

I'm not going
back in the box!

I'm not going, never!
No!

I am not going back
in the box!

I got you.
I got you this time!

(PANTING)

Oh, no, not you.

It wasn't supposed to be you.

Oh, no, no!

I'm home!

Brad?

(GUN COCKING)

I told you,
he's not here.

Then where is he?

Is he okay?

WARREN: He's fine.

Who were you
hoping was here?

You know damn well.

Your house guest
is your business.

Katherine believes
he should be here, but...

Yes, where is Katherine?

Since Chen,
she's grown cautious.

Katherine is counting on
you to do the right thing.

She wants you to come
to the choice yourself.

She said to
give you space.

You're with us now.

I'm not with anyone.

We don't
have him, Kiera.

We don't have
any idea who he is,

but he's
temporally unsound.

There were signs
of a struggle at my place.

You said he beat Chen
in hand-to-hand combat.

Something happened.

Out there on his own,
or captured by someone else,

either way
the stakes are huge.

He's a danger to this
timeline, you realize that?

I have an idea.

(CELL PHONE BEEPING)
I'll be in touch.

Carlos, what is it?

It had to be done.

You were sloppy.

She wasn't
supposed to be there,

we should have
had more time.

You people don't have
a handle on this.

That's impossible.

Must be a glitch.

You said you
had eyes on Alec Sadler?

I'm looking at him
right now!

BRAD: Are you certain? Because you said
you had the contamination tracked.

We do.

Kiera Cameron inside...

Your intel is shit.

We'll regroup.

I'll reassess.

You've done enough.

I'll find you
when I know more.

(TIRES SCREECHING)

CARLOS: The freelancers.

I saw them, and then poof...
Somebody else.

Just like that.

Oh, oh, I know.
Touchy subject, I know.

Shh... (LAUGHS)

Don't ask, don't tell.

Don't ask, don't tell.

This guy's free falling.

I know
what you're thinking.

(IMITATING INFOMERCIAL) Side effects
may include blah, blah, blah, blah.

Ask your doctor.

Ask your dad.

Don't ask your dad,
he's too young.

He's way too young.

It's not going to work.

Jason, you know me.

Calm down.

It's okay, just...

CARLOS: Check this out.

That's the second device.

The one my...

The one Alec used
to travel here.

Where is it?
Evidence lock-up.

I need to
get it out of there.

No, no, no, no.

Dangerous in the wrong hands.
That's temporal plutonium.

Then why were you trying
to put it back in play?

It needs a fix,
quick fix.

He needs a win,
needs a win.

So close, yet so far.

Are you talking
about Alec?

No, no.
(KNOCKING AT DOOR)

Shh!
CARLOS: Yeah?

He's free to go. CARLOS:
What're you talking about?

The charge was dropped.
Lack of evidence.

Klimner recanted his story,
said it wasn't him.

I'm going
to need that back.

It stays here.

I'm good for it, I swear.

(LAUGHS)
Not this time.

Scram.

I'm sorry.

Come on. Let's go. Ding, ding.
Top floor, top floor, top floor.

Technology.

Devices, let's go.

(HUMMING)

A criminal assault complaint
does not just go away.

Not without help, it doesn't.

KIERA: Unbelievable.

He was storming,
and now he's...

Calm.

CARLOS: Like an addict
getting a fix.

Yeah.

Find out how those
charges were dropped.

Where are you going?

To the source.

You tread lightly, okay?

Piron is all over
this department,

and Alec Sadler
is a big wheel now.

He's not your boy.

Not anymore.

Let me see the discharge
papers on that last one.

(SIGHS)

Dillon.

He do this himself?

Hey, how are
Sydney and the boys?

They good?
Yeah.

How about ice cream with
that social worker, huh?

Red head, glasses.
What was her name?

Carlos.

Not the first case
like that bounced.

Violent outbursts
the last couple weeks.

All the charges dropped?

All wearing
those bracelets.

(SIGHS)

Okay.
Keep this between us, huh?

You didn't hear
anything from me.

(SIGHS) Okay.

(TAPPING KEYBOARD)

You can’t just
walk in here.

All evidence
to the contrary.

You made it pretty clear last
time we spoke that we were done.

Jason attacked someone.
Beat him pretty badly.

I believe it had
something to do with HALO.

Can we get Jason
up here, please?

He dug up
a time travel device.

Now, I doubt that's an
idea that he had on his own,

but I can guess who might
have put him up to it.

A certain CMR thief.

I need that chip to make the neural
link work effectively with HALO.

It was the missing piece
of the puzzle.

Should I have let it
get vaporized?

Don't try to rationalize
what you did.

I'm sorry I want to make
the world a better place

and change this dark future
that I'm supposed to create.

I think you're lying.

If I was lying,
you'd know by now.

So am I?

Kiera, um...

I have to apologize. I had
some sort of regression.

I am truly embarrassed
by what happened.

Jason, I believe
HALO is making you...

I haven't felt
this clear in years.

You see,
I took it off.

HALO, it's not
causing my regression.

It's actually preventing
it from being worse.

HALO is safe, Kiera.

I wouldn't be wearing it
if it wasn't.

Yeah, I've made
some mistakes,

but you can see I'm committed
to the greater good.

I still remember
my own warning.

You better.

I'll see you out.

I'll see myself out.

(SIGHS)

(CLEARS THROAT)

Mr. Litchfield?
Yes.

I'm Detective Fonnegra, VPD.

I've got a couple of questions
about your involvement

in the HALO project.

I understand you're part of a
limited developer beta test?

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

(SCOFFS) How about the
domestic charge last week?

You know about that?

I didn't talk to anyone.

They took
the damn thing away,

I got nothing
to do with it anymore.

What is it with you people?

Did somebody at
the department lean on you?

Were you reimbursed?

Not nearly enough.

You cops gotta get
your stories straight.

Go talk to that bald bastard.

You mean Dillon?
Yeah.

(SIGHS)

(BEEPS)

CARLOS: Hey, it's me.
What'd you find?

There's at least
three others.

I spoke to two of them.

There were pay-offs.
Dillon's involved.

How'd it go
with the boy genius?

Alec claims he doesn't know a thing
about any problems with HALO,

or Jason's extracurricular
trip to the park.

(SCOFFS)
And you believe him?

I scanned him.

He checked out.

So that's a dead end.

It's not sitting right.

Just because Alec
believes HALO is harmless,

doesn't mean that it is.

Whatever they're paying you,
I'll triple it.

BRAD: I need your help.

You're Kiera's, uh...

You're Matthew Kellog.

My reputation precedes me.

I hope that's a good thing.

I know you better
than you realize.

I'm not exactly
from around here.

You and me both.

That's why I came to you.

I need resources.
I need information.

I don't even know you.

You will.

What do you need, exactly?

I need to find a freelancer,
retrieve something they took.

Can you help me with that?

Those guys tend to find you.

And it doesn't
usually go too well.

They don't worry me.

All right, say I do
find them.

How would I contact you?

We pre-arrange a meeting.

Take this.
I'll call you.

We need to act fast, sir.
Our future depends on it.

Hang on.

I don't want to be rude here,
but who the hell are you?

You'll have to wait
for another time.

We're seeing a reaction in less than
six percent of our beta testers.

Six percent.

So that means if the
launch goes the way we want,

by Christmas we'll have 30,000
psychotic people walking around?

It seems a bit high.

It'll never get to that

It looks like a problem
with the neural interfacing.

It's like, um, if someone
had a gluten allergy,

but, you know,
in the brain.

We could find a work-around.

Are you dumbing
this down for me or her?

No, I would never.

Really.
It's an alpha model.

The first quantal phones
shipped as bricks.

They recovered.

You should have told me
about this, Jason.

You should
have come clean.

I know.

How are you?
I'm fine.

Look, I don't want you
to keep wearing this

if it's hurting you.

But we really
need to fix it

and you're the lead
on that interface.

Yeah, I can,
um, take breaks.

A few hours on,
a few hours off.

(STAMMERING)

It'll be fine.

Yeah.

No more secrets
between us, okay?

All right.

Piron has a
dangerously flawed product

that they've
invested millions in,

and they have Dillon on the
inside sweeping up the damage.

You better be 100% sure before
you make any accusations.

I have three people that
say he headed off charges,

and payoffs were handled
by Piron lawyers.

Any of them
willing to go on record?

No.

You shoot the king,
you gotta kill the king.

Alec is involved.

What is with your
hate-on for Alec?

I thought you chose this
Alec over the other one.

That ceremony,
for the other Kiera,

did you ever stop and ask
yourself why he did it?

It was about
respect, closure.

Or maybe a great way
to cover something up.

Make evidence
disappear forever.

Evidence of what?

Her CMR chip, he removed it.

He didn't.

Yes. This HALO technology
is three generations

ahead of
what's available today.

How do you
think that happens?

Oh, that little...

Okay.

Where are you going?

(SIGHS) I'm going
about this a different way.

How so?

I'm calling in a favor.

You?

I've got another lead
to chase down.

It's along shot, but...

CARLOS: So you gave up
and joined the enemy.

JULIAN: Well, my
principles are unchanged.

I don't work for Piron,
I just watch over them.

CARLOS: Really? Huh.

'Cause from the outside,

it seems like Alec bought you
and put you on a leash.

You're trying
to provoke me.

Why?

(SIGHS) I've got three crimes,
all of them swept under the rug,

all of them wearing HALO
beta test devices.

That's not a coincidence.

I'll talk to Alec about it.

Kiera already did that.

I was looking for something
a little more covert.

Piron is putting profit
ahead of public safety.

I thought that's what
you were there to prevent.

I'll look into it.

YOUNG BRAD:
Who are you?

I just came to get
something I left here.

That's my hiding spot.

Yeah, I figured
we could share it.

That was underneath?

Uh-huh.

So, uh...
Did you live here before?

You could say that.

Billy Kemp do that?

Let me tell you something.

Billy Kemp is a coward.

You remember that the
next time you see him.

And then you
ball up your fist,

and you let him have it.
Hit him?

It's gonna hurt your hand, but
he won't come at you again.

That is terrible advice.

Don't worry,
I'm with the police.

You in trouble?
BRAD: Nah.

But we do have some
bad guys to catch, though.

BRAD'S MOTHER: Bradley
Tonkin, you get in here

before your lunch
gets cold!

I should go.

Brad, don't be the
one who hits first, okay?

That makes you the bully.

But if he comes at you...
Then it's okay?

You have
to protect yourself.

That was interesting.

I thought
you'd been snatched.

The broken glass,
the blood?

Uh, yeah.

Sorry.

How'd you find me?

I didn't find you.

I found him.

I'm impressed.

I'm good at my job.

And sorry?

What's going on?

Am I going to have
to apologize again

if I say it's not you,

even though it's not
exactly true?

I came here
to help you.

And you've done that,
all the way down the line.

And it was a mistake
and I have to go.

There is something that
you aren't telling me.

There's a lot.

When are you from?

And who sent you back?

We both walk away.

That's the only choice.

Oh, it's no choice
at all.

Put your
weapon down, Travis.

You think I
came here alone?

(GUN COCKING)

You must be sweet
on this one, Protector.

It wasn't even hard
to sneak up on you.

So. You caught me.

What now?

It's like Wile E. Coyote finally
catching the Road Runner.

It's a cartoon.

It's pretty
existential fare, actually.

There's a coyote
who's just relentless...

We're savoring
the moment, Protector.

What do you want with me?

What makes you think we're
interested in you at all?

SONYA: Where did you
get these?

KIERA: From Alec.

They're experimental.

They're his.

They are.

INGRAM: The microcircuits are
advanced beyond anything now,

but it's a weird,
hybridized nano-tech.

Like a caveman
building a cell phone.

SONYA: From the future?

Yes.
Don't.

Who sent you?

There's aspects to this time
that I truly appreciate.

Like how you still have to
do certain things by hand.

(GRUNTING)

(WHIMPERING)

(GRUNTING)

You can take a hit.

Apparently.

Time for some answers,
future man.

(GRUNTS)

What are you doing here?

Cleaning up your mess.

HALO beta test,
list participants.

COMPUTER: HALO participants.

All right, narrow to those who have
reported anti-social behavior.

COMPUTER: No findings.

Not a one, all right?

Widen the search
to former participants.

COMPUTER: You do not
have clearance.

No access.

So much for openness, Alec.

Jason, you okay?

Police knock you
around a little bit?

Nah, it's all cleared up.

Let's, uh, move along, move along.
Nothing to see.

But you're not
the only one, are you?

Others were arrested,
did things,

they paid to
make it go away, right?

Oh, I don't know.

You're not wearing
your HALO.

No, it's not wearing me.

I'm not wearing it.
Who's driving, now?

Right?
Right.

You see some results
you didn't like, or...

Oh, no, no, no.
I won't do that.

I won't do that. Oh, no. I will
not betray him. No, no, sir.

Nope.
Jason.

Jason, there's no one
to betray here, okay?

We're just talking
about the bracelet.

And Alec would never do
anything to hurt people, so...

That's right, Alec would never
do something to hurt people!

Never.

No, Alec Sadler will
become a great man.

Wouldn't hurt anybody.

You, murderer, you...

Nothing good for you.

You don't know any more about
my future than I do, Jason.

What? Yes, I do.

I lived, saw it.
Lived it, didn't like it.

Didn't like the ending.
Didn't like any of it.

Not much, not at all.

Alec, he sent us back
65 years on.

Me, Kiera, Liber8, we're
all here because of him.

You, you're not gonna
stand in the way.

Not now, not then,
not in the future then.

Jason, listen to me, okay?
You're not well.

Fine.
Truth, Theseus.

Murderer. You.

HALO was made
to make disease go away.

You need to go away
right now.

(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)

You're here for a reason.

Explain.

(BRAD GRUNTS)

Travis!

What is your mission?

For all we know
you're just a guy

who came across
some future tech.

Not in this case.

(NAIL GUN FIRING)

This is on you.

Start talking.

(NAILGUN FIRING)

(SCREAMING)

ALEC: Jason!
Come on, Jason!

Jason, let him go!

Come on.

(MACHINE BEEPING)

No, no, no, Jason!

It's okay, it's okay.
Let go!

ALEC: It's okay, it's okay.

It's okay. Let go, let go.
It's okay.

Julian, you okay?

Jacqueline, go to my office. He
does not leave this building.

Yes.

You okay?
Yeah.

No, no, no! No, no, no! Jason!

You're okay.
No, no, it's all right.

It's okay, come back.
Come back. You're okay.

(WAILING IN PAIN)

Let her go.

Talk, and l will.

2039 is the year I left.

I was sent because
right here, right now,

is when the timeline
became disrupted.

How would you know that?

Freelancers were...
JASMINE: Freelancers?

You're one of
those assholes?

No, we neutralized
one of their facilities.

We went through their reports,
what wasn't destroyed.

They were convinced
that this city, this time,

was ground-zero for a
cataclysmic time anomaly.

Cataclysmic how?

I don't know,
but it rippled into my time.

Nah, he was probably sent here
by the Corporate Congress.

Corporate what?

Corporate government.
You must know it.

BRAD: Corporations,
multi-nationals,

whatever you want to call
them, they all collapsed.

That explains the toy gun.

Protector, news to you?

Bad news.

Just let her go.

No, I want to hear this.

What happened?

Global economy cratered.

Never recovered.

Government tried to
nationalize industries,

that didn't work.

Companies started to
cannibalize each other.

They took up arms,
they formed factions,

declared war
against the government.

And? And?

And the people had enough.

A few more corporations declared
war, everything changed.

Revolution. Civil war.

That means we did it,
we changed it.

Kagame's vision!
Yeah.

We made it real!

You know, the other beta testers,
the ones that got arrested,

they all suffered similar
mental breaks to the one I had.

What happened to them?

It wasn't my choice
how that got handled.

But it's done.

We should move on,
make the best of it.

This technology, it took
you decades to invent.

A lifetime of expertise
and experience.

It's really the zenith
of your creativity.

Maybe the 20-year-old you
isn't quite capable

of grasping
the entirety of it.

I'll do better.

Everyone keeps looking at
me like I'm some naive kid,

handed a legacy by my father.

Sad thing is,
is I never even knew the man.

Never will know.

I guess I was just trying
to prove myself to him.

That I deserved his
praise and his love.

But I pushed you. I thought
maybe by working together

I could be
a better father than...

Everything you said.

Was it true?

Yes.

You got your memory back.

And then you bolted.

I didn’t like
what I remembered.

Yeah, well,
next time leave a note.

Then maybe we wouldn't be
in a situation like this.

I remembered my mission.

I remembered what
I was supposed to do.

What I did.

Oh, God damn it.

Kiera.

Kiera!

Kiera?

I'm the one who killed you.

No. Curtis Chen
killed the other me.

I saw him.

You saw him shoot.

Your suit stopped the bullet,
neutralized it somehow.

I didn't miss.

I'm sorry.

What do your weapons do?

One of those is a weapon,
the others are...

They're not useful
in this situation.

What's your read?

I think they're trying to figure
out if you're full of shit.

I didn't tell them
everything.

That seems to be
your thing.

Do we believe him?
I believe her.

The way she reacted?
(SCOFFS)

Kiera?

(GRUNTS)

It's all wrong.

There was no
biological component to it.

The Corporate Congress
doesn't exist.

Of course the weapons
are different.

His story is too convenient.

He's leaving
something out.

We won, Travis.

Take it in.

KIERA: Oh, God.
Oh, God. Oh, God.

You ready?

Not yet.

(GRUNTS)

(MOANING IN PAIN)

JASMINE: Shit!

(YELLING)

Nice try, Cameron.

Back! All of you!

This feels familiar.

Kill me if you want, Kiera,
but it won't change a thing.

Liber8 wins and you lose.

Trust me, changing the future
isn't as easy as you think.

Yeah, but we did it.

So make up your mind.

Either pull that trigger,
or let me go.

KIERA: Maybe the Corporate
Congress loses in this timeline,

but in the timeline I come
from, I killed your ass good.

In your dreams,
little girl.

Maybe dreams are
more real than you think.

When did you get
to be so philosophical?

When I saw
my own dead body.

Oh, I wish I could
show you yours.

(GUNSHOTS)

He dies, you die.

(CONTINUES SHOOTING)

ALEC: And this is
the heart of HALO.

A bio-organic microcircuit
that interfaces directly

between brain and machine.

There's no other
technology like it.

JULIAN: Looks like it comes
out of a Terminator.

Jason volunteered to be one
of the first beta testers.

There were risks.

He's psychotic, Alec.

That's more than a risk.

What happened was a glitch.
He's better now.

This new chip is pure.
It's perfect.

With this we'll be
able to catch cancer

and other diseases.
Save lives.

Millions of lives
eventually.

I couldn't access
any of your records.

Why do you want to
stop HALO in its tracks?

With all the good it can do,
what good would you be doing?

(PHONE BEEPING) Yes, I helped
get those charges dropped.

Why?

The benefits
of this HALO thing,

do they really
outweigh the risks?

Everyone who wears it sends
biometric and psychoanalytical data

back to the Piron servers.

We can collate and filter
that data for warning signs

of aberrant behavior.

Big Brother. Wow.

This just gets
better and better.

And if we can prevent
a terrorist from striking,

or a gunman from
walking into a daycare?

There will be
checks and balances.

Believe me,
I want this clone right.

You and I are cut from
the same cloth, Carlos.

We want to
protect and serve.

This gives us
a huge advantage.

Don't burn it all down now.

No matches here.

(DOOR OPENS)

(DOOR CLOSES)

TRAVIS: So we're supposed to
believe that you are not you?

And I'm not
the only one.

There are two
Alec Sadlers.

Bullshit. KIERA: He made
the time device work.

He traveled back
to change things

and created
another timeline.

This one.

Did he encounter himself?

She'd say anything.

Remember when I sprung
you from the freelancers?

How I knew the story of the time
you fell behind in patrol?

That's because you and I
had that conversation

just before you died.

Two Alec Sadlers.
Think about it.

That's what created the alternate
future that this guy comes from.

I guess your
secret deal with Sadler

just got a little
complicated, Garza.

INGRAM:
You work for Sadler?

No, of course not!

He sent her
back here from 2077.

If only you people knew
what you don't know.

Hey.

Homeowner reported two strangers in
the back yard talking to her kid.

Yeah, and?

A unit responded, spoke to the
witnesses, identified these two.

Agent Cameron's car
was in the alleyway.

There's no sign of her.

Shit.

All right,
text me the address.

Come on, come on.

Kiera, where are you?
Call me back.

We're in this
together, Lucas.

You can't believe
what shes saying.

I can't believe what
any of you say!

And none of you
can believe me!

Even though I've
got the evidence!

You are going to want
to be careful with that.

Lucas.
Don't you see?

If this timeline
has been altered,

then we're just pawns
in someone else's game.

Either Sadler's, or hers.

Lucas, no. No.

He's right.
And none of you get it.

Everything you've done
is for nothing.

(GROANS)
Take it easy!

It's useless!

All of it!

Two Alecs!
Two protectors!

One dead!

And him!
(EXPLODING)

Now you
tell me something.

Whose future is this?

You.

Start talking.

About what?

About the future we made
and what happens after.

Corporations
versus governments.

How do you think
that turns out?

People chose sides,
then switched sides.

Tried to protect
their families,

only got caught up
in the middle.

Life became
about survival,

and survival became
a life sentence.

Please, they're just
trying to play us.

Keep talking.

I grew up in this
beautiful city.

In less than 30 years,
it's a lifeless crater.

Dogs tearing at corpses,
everything gone to hell.

Because of you.
All of you.

Your useless rhetoric,
your vision.

None of us is
in control here.

You never catch
the Road Runner.

It can't be done.

KIERA: From the moment Alec and
I traveled to this timeline,

you have all been pawns
in someone else's game.

CURTIS: It gets better!

Chen.
It can't be.

It is.

KELLOG: Aw!
Well, look at this.

We got the band
back together again.

Sorry we're
late to the party.

Your cell phone.

You used it to track me.

KELLOG: Well,
at least he's smart.

That's something.
So come on, catch me up.

I want to hear all about this alternate
future you're apparently from.

Starting with, um...

Me.

There's no Corporate Congress.
We won.

That's not what
the man described.

I remember how it feels,
thinking you're leading change,

then realizing someones playing a
deeper game than you can even imagine.

Like you, Lazarus?

It's not a game.

It's a mission.

The one he sent me
back for.

Kellog is one of
several clan leaders,

created this plan
to change history.

SONYA: Kellog?

INGRAM: You see?

Any future is possible.

You just have to
want it bad enough.

CURTIS: I'm living proof.

Travis, you were done
before you began, brother.

Kellog, working for himself.

Curtis, working
for the freelancers.

And Garza,
working for Alec Sadler.

Your plans were compromised
from the beginning.

No one controls the future.

It is an
ever-evolving organism

free to change and adapt
as it sees fit.

BRAD: Nothing left
to fight for.

No winners.
There is no perfect system.

I can show you
if you let me.

Lei him open your eyes.

Show us.

As we stand now,
on the precipice of war,

I am reminded of
what we have endured...

ls that me?

...and what we are
fighting for.

Hundreds of thousands have
already paid a terrible price,

with their lives.

But for what?

Our children are starving.

Our city is in ruins.

We have had enough.

We must rise up as one.

We must act now,
before it's too late.

Before our strength
and our will abandons us.

You can't know what impact
your moves will have now.

You're done.

You're all done.

She's right.

It's pointless.

And I'm tired of being
someone else's bitch.

SONYA: This is just
one possible future.

We're needed now
more than ever.

No, our mission concept
is flawed.

A soldier knows
when the battle is lost.

Think I can have that?

Does it matter?

Tools always backfire.

Brad, you ready
to finish this?

I'm not the same guy
that came through, Curtis.

You're both
on your own now.

CURTIS: I'll tell you
what I do know.

Whatever is supposed
to happen will,

with or without you.

We'll pick this up later.

We can fix this.

We can still fight for
what we believe in.

I don't know what
that is anymore.
