Defiance (2013–2015): Season 3, Episode 1 - The World We Seize - full transcript

Previously on Defiance...

I made a deal with
the devil to save my father.

This devil was a machine,
a ship bent on destroying the world.

It had big plans for me.

It made me destroy New York City
and hurt the people I love.

What happened?

Did Irisa kill Tommy?

Yes.

You remember Pilar, Rafe's wife.

You're not still sick?

Never been better.



And if you struggle,
you'll hurt the baby!

Pilar has kidnapped
Alak and Christie.

Do you know how
many people I have killed?

Do you know how many
people you can still save?

To save the planet,
we had to travel

into the heart of darkness.

The ship buried deep
under the town of Defiance.

He did it.

Looks like we just
saved the world.

That's it. Come on.

I love you, baby girl.

Any word on Nolan?

He disappeared.

Old Saint Louis is gone.



If Nolan was in the collapse,
I'm afraid he's gone, as well.

7 MONTHS LATER

The Tsuroz is
shutting itself down.

To conserve
what's left of its power.

Father...

I am frightened.

Then let fear
strengthen your resolve.

Our mission must not fail.

Ripped By mstoll

The gulanite is this way.

It may be guarded.

Too bad for the guards.

Madam Mayor,
the stasis nets just went dark.

I ordered them to pull the plug.

Gulanite reserves
are down to 3%.

City charter
stipulates that all power

be diverted to heating
and medical services.

And they're still asking for you
at the NeedWant.

Of course.

With the stasis nets down,

the town is
a sitting duck for raiders

or whatever else comes through

Bissel Pass.

You think I don't know that?

People are scared.

Yeah, well, I'm scared, too.

Don't tell anybody that.

McCAWLEY MINES

Better be an emergency, Lambert.

I got a town to run.

Well, it's Doc Yewll.
She's up 30K.

Yewll?

She's not a gambler.
What's she up to?

I don't know,
but if she keeps going,

you know,
she's gonna clean us out.

Doc Yewll.

You don't normally gamble
in my establishment.

Just cutting loose.
Getting my ya-yas out.

Winning big, I see.

Yeah.

You angling for a tip?

Here you go, legs.

Now, scoot.

Everybody stay calm!

Hand over your cash,
scrip chips and jewelry!

Don't you move.

Everyone does as they're told,
and everyone walks away!

Empty your pockets.

Empty them!

Turn around.

Move it!

Uh, I don't think so!

Get that safe open!

Friend, I don't run
this place anymore.

You're still the owner!

But I don't know
the combination.

Okay.

Okay.

Let me guess.

You're an
out-of-work miner?

Hap, is that you
under that mask?

Just get the scrip!

Things are pretty
desperate around here, aren't they?

Mines collapsed, pow farms
covered under a ton of snow,

construction jobs
non-existent. But this,

this is not the answer.

Shut up and give me
the jekking cash!

Berlin! Look out!

You okay?

It's been a day.

This is a Votan ark.
What's it doing underground?

It must have crash landed.

Yes.

These life pods
are losing power.

Daughter!

Not yet.

No one will miss him.

You must remain focused.

We didn't come here to feed.

You have too many rules.

I like his weapon.

Where's my daughter?

Do you speak Irathient?

Irisa?

Kiddo.

Hey.

Hey. Hey.

Kiddo? Hey.

You okay?

- You okay?
- Your breath stinks.

Oh, you're all right.

All right.

Come on.

How'd we get here?

Where are we?

Oh.

Thank Christ.

OKLAHOMA CITY
500 MILES FROM DEFIANCE

Any movement?

No.

No patrols.

Good.

Come quickly, then.

We spotted them.

Bundle up, dear.

It's a walk.

It's an old joint Pilar's parents
had when she was little.

Only my wife would be crazy enough
to hole up behind enemy lines.

Our grandchild.

Have you seen Alak and Christie?

Not yet.
They're probably inside.

If your wife has harmed them,

she will die
an excruciating death.

And if she hasn't harmed them...

Same outcome.

I see your point.

How do we get down there?

Well, the incline's too steep.

We gotta go around the long way.

Come on, let's get
back to the roller.

Nothing like the cold
air to ward off croup.

Does he need to be changed?

Yeah, but don't worry, honey.

Grandma's got little Lukey.

Votanis Collective death squad.

They've taken our vehicle.

Shtako.

We can't let them
discover the children.

All right.

Make it look good.

- Move.
- Take it easy!

Stop where you are!

Drop your guns!

Don't shoot!

When heaven falls to earth...

...peace shall reign!

We are loyal to the collective.

Loyal to the Collective?

I shall be the judge of that.

I am General Rahm Tak.

The Beast.

You've heard of me.

I, however,
find myself at a disadvantage.

I am Datak Tarr of the Shanje Liro.

Ah.

I know the name.

You're from Defiance.

A self-styled crime lord,
are you not?

I have learned to make
some small profit among the humans.

Small indeed.

Your donations to our common cause
have been meager at best.

And you're only
Shanje by marriage.

My lady.

I bask in starlit beauty.

You shame me with honor,
Favi Tak.

Who's the pink-skin?

Who you calling pink-skin,
you Edgar Winter piece of shtako?

Say your name!

Tell the general your name.

McCawley.

The name is Rafe McCawley.

Please don't kill him.

The human is our bounty.

There is a price on his
head back in Defiance.

You are in luck.

My caravan is
headed to your hometown.

We'll make camp here.

We can travel together
once we've eaten and rested.

I won't take no for an answer.

I've been dying for
some cultured company.

General Tak, may I ask
what business you have in Defiance?

You may indeed.

I'm going to kill all the humans

and burn the disgusting
place to the ground.

Your winnings.

You don't have to do that.
It's all there.

I count by twos.
It goes fast.

She's gonna need it
to pay her way across the Badlands.

What are you talking about?

What's with the packed bags?

Excuse me.

Got a ticket on
tomorrow's land coach.

Thought I'd try
my luck out west.

This town needs you.

What this town needs
is a sensitively worded obituary.

Defiance has faced
harder winters than this.

It's time to get real.

It's been seven months
since the McCawley Mines collapsed.

Gulanite was the lifeblood
of this town.

There is no future without it.

Oh, and incidentally, I just heard
that the stasis nets went down.

- Amanda, is that true?
- It's temporary.

Ah, so we're only
temporarily screwed. Good news.

I depart with
a clear conscience.

Look. We've lost soldiers,
doctors, engineers,

anyone with a skill
marketable to the outside world.

But you know who stayed?

The people who can't leave.

The people who can't survive
in the Badlands.

Yeah, and they're
depending on people

like us to keep it all together.

Come on, Doc, you're...

You're the only doctor in town.

If you leave, people will die.

I don't want that
on my conscience,

and I don't think you do either.

The fact that you try to appeal

to my better angels
is adorably human.

So you're staying?

Get your skinny ass out of here.

I've got work to do.

Last thing I remember, uh,

SUNFLOWER FLATS
7 MILES EAST OF DEFIANCE

was the ceiling
coming down on us.

You were in my arms and I pulled you
into one of those life pods.

And, uh, it closed up around,
we must have gone asleep.

I wake up and we're being
pulled out by something.

Some alien
I've never seen before.

Older male, younger female,
purple skin, real strong.

This ringing a bell for you?

Did they cut you?

Yeah, must have.
You got one, too.

Well...

Defiance is that way.

We should probably go soon.

I can't go back.

They're gonna lynch me.

It's the only town.

They know I'm a mass murderer.

I destroyed New York.

Nolan, I killed Tommy.

All right.

Now, you listen up, because
I'm only gonna say this once.

It was that Ark-brain
that did the killing. Not you.

You are as much
a victim as anyone.

You fought it, you beat it,
and you saved everyone.

I could not be prouder of you.

They're still gonna lynch me.

Details, details.

What is that?

It's a wormhole flare.

Long-distance coded message.
Votanis Collective.

The V.C. isn't
normally this far north.

I wonder who they're talking to.

What's the message?

It's good.

Just got word there are
five stasis nets down.

Datak, Stahma.

Exciting news from my spies
outside of Defiance.

The gulanite shortage
has apparently forced the town

to pull the plug
on the stasis net.

Cause for celebration, no?

You'll overrun them easily.

And that pleases you?

Of course, Favi Tak.

General Rahm Tak.

I know I'm not supposed
to take this job personally,

but I must admit, I'm going to
enjoy this campaign.

I mean, the very idea of Defiance
turns my stomach.

I don't know how
you two live there.

You know, I think I will hook
a cable to that arch

and pull the whole
thing to the ground.

Perhaps they'll put
a statue of me in its place.

That is a beautiful dream.

Was that sarcasm?

'Cause I assure you, Favi Tarr,
my aspirations are achievable.

I am not a delusional man.

There's our signaler.

The one holding
the wormhole flare gun.

I've seen him in Defiance.

They don't look like soldiers.

Why are they
signaling the V.C.?

That's because they're spies.

You go around to the right.

That one's yours.

I'll get the one by the truck.

Don't move.

I said don't move.

You're from Defiance.

They wrote that book about you.

What book?

I read it.

Raised by a human father.

Drop the gun!

Irathient girl.

Come closer and I'll shoot you!

No, no shooting.

No shooting.

We're friends.

I speak English, see?

Oh, look.

You're trembling.

I'll show you what it means...

...to be a real Votan.

Irisa?

Hey!

Come on.

What happened?

My weapon jammed.

Let me.

I've had three children,
you know.

You have to keep
one of them chained to a table

so she won't run away on you.

Oh, I bet you spent all
night thinking up that one.

Check the traps, funny boy.

Getting cold out there.

I'll go.

I need to stretch my legs.

Come on, where would I run to?

We're in the middle of nowhere.

I know you want to kill me.

Excuse me?

And I don't blame you.

I know how mad both of you are.

But you don't care.

Oh, don't say that.
I care very much.

And yet, here we are.

Your parents are terrible people.

They threatened me.

They told me they would kill me

if I stayed in Defiance.

I could not abandon
my family a second time,

therefore, I had no choice
but to bring you with me.

Surely you understand that,
as a father?

Sure.

Then it's settled.
We'll both go.

Unchain him.

Here you go, Christie.

Here's your baby.

I love you.

Looks like E-Rep
pulled up stakes.

Good.

Don't be so sure.

Earth Republic was the only thing

keeping the V.C.
out of North America.

Come on.

Last time we saw Amanda,
she tried to shoot me.

She considered shooting you.

I remind you, she didn't
actually pull the trigger.

Yeah.

Yeah, you stay in the car.

Sure you can spare the bullets?

Where's Pottinger?

He's gone.

I'm back in charge.

What'd you do,
stuff the ballot box?

This town's on its last legs.

I've been hanging on
by my fingernails.

Where the hell were you?

Trapped under
a mile of solid rock.

How long have we been gone?

Seven months.

Is Irisa...

Downstairs? Yeah.

Excuse me.

I knew it was you.

Irisa, can you sign this?

It's for my boyfriend.

What's it feel like,
saving the world?

AMAZING GODDESS of the Badlands

I bet it feels great, huh?

What happened to your head?

Uh-uh.

Stasis nets are down.

What the hell is
going on with that?

Can't spare the gulanite.

Well, you're gonna have to.

You gotta get them up,
and you gotta get them up now.

You don't understand.

You don't understand.

The Votanis Collective.

They're coming for you.

This book's trash.

I won't sign this.

Take a walk, Poole.

But don't you know who this is?

Go home, Deputy.

No, my shift doesn't
end for another hour.

I'm the lawkeeper now.

Ah!

These are all the weapons
that are left in the armory?

There was looting
when the E-Rep bugged out.

All right.

I guess it's gonna
have to do for a start.

The real issue is power.

We don't get those stasis nets
back up and running,

this war's over before it begins.

Come on.

- Where we going?
- To the gulanite mines.

There's no point.

Why not?

The mines collapsed
the night you disappeared.

The ground hardened
into I don't know what,

but our drills
can't cut through.

The gulanite's down there,
but we can't access it.

And yet, somehow, Irisa

and I found our way out
and made it to the surface.

So there's gotta be
a tunnel or something.

You don't know how you made it
to the surface?

No, but the purple-skins do.

- Purple-skins?
- I'll tell you on the way.

Hey!

Berlin!

- What the hell are you doing?
- She killed Tommy!

A machine killed Tommy!

You lay a hand on her again,
and I don't care who you are,

I will put you in the ground.

That hardware always been there?

No, it's new.

Thought you said
no one was home at the mines.

I did.

Looks like someone
set up shop for themselves.

This tech's Votan, Indogene.

Looks like our squatters are
from your neck of the woods, kiddo.

I'm from Denver.

Oh, baby.

Come to papa.

The purples took my gun,
so we know we're in the right place.

They have terraformers.

What the hell was that?

Not waiting to find out.

Strong pulse.
She's just stunned.

Come on.

On me, you cover right.

Rahm Tak.

- Is there something wrong?
- No talking!

Come.

Quickly.

We found some humans.

Should be educational.

Well, somebody's
been busy down here.

What the hell do they want
with all this gulanite?

I wanna get my hands
on one of those drones.

Figure out how they work,

we might get a beat on who or what
we're dealing with here.

I remember you.

You wanna tell us
what you're doing in our mines?

Oh, feeling frisky, are we?

Drop the weapon!

Drop it!

You guys okay?

Yeah.

Did you have to
shoot her in the gut?

I was aiming for the legs.

Look, I'm a little shaky after
being zapped by that thing.

Is she gonna live?

Not unless we get
her to a doctor fast.

Grab the roller.

It's V.C. patrol.

I'm gonna go talk to them.

Then unlock the chain first.

Mom wouldn't like that.

Luke is half Casti, half human.

Do you know
what the Votanis Collective

does to mix-breed babies?

Find a good hiding place.

Greetings!

When heaven falls to earth,
peace shall reign.

Yeah, yeah, boring, boring.

Do you know who I am?

Rahm Tak.

The Beast.

I'm on your side.

I worked as a spy
for the Collective.

I assassinated Earth Republic
Ambassador Tennety.

What did you say your name was?

Quentin McCawley.

McCawley. McCawley?

McCawley, McCawley,
McCawley, McCawley.

Never heard of you.

No!

Oops.

Was that your son?

McCawl...

There was no reason to kill him.

He just did it out of spite.

I'm sorry, Rafe.

As family,
we will all bear this...

grievous loss

...and take
vengeance together.

Thanks, Datak.
It means a lot.

Someone's coming.

The general is asking for you two.

Stahma.

You said you captured
Papa Bear McCawley

somewhere around here, right?

Yes.

And yet, you failed to notice that
he had a son running around loose.

We're as surprised
as you must be.

Clever humans.

I'm beginning to think
you're the clever one, Stahma.

Ah!

Look at this.
I found a mouse.

This is a private home.

You have no right to be here!

So?

The baby.

We need to get
the soldiers out of here.

No!

Oh, Dad!

You're all devils!

May Rayetso consign your soul...

...to solitude and fire!

She's... She's in shock.

I am not in shock.

I know exactly what I'm saying!

May your liro
stink of unclean death

in the forever after
of the Three Hells!

Oh. Forgive her, please.

Stahma,

did you teach this human
the curses of our people?

This is your
husband's charge blade.

I want you to kill
this human with it.

Do it for me.

I sense hesitation.

Would you kill this human
in exchange for your husband's life?

Stahma.

Make a decision.

Stahma!

Make a decision!

I'm not afraid.

Ah!

No!

No. Shh.

Thank you, General,
for providing clarity.

Of course, the only
good human is a dead one.

Favi Tak,
may we leave this place now?

The human death-stink offends.

Of course.

Move out!

Oh, God.

Oh, God.

Please...

...bring her back.

Luke?

Luke?

He's hungry.

Oh, baby, thank God.

Remember how our kids used to cry
like that when they were...

Rafe.

Rafe McCawley,
you wake the hell up right now.

Oh-ho-ho.

Alak, my son,
you forget what happened here.

You forget this day

and you love this little baby
like you loved my Christie.

I should have been better.

Me too.

What are you doing?

Waste not, want not.

What's with all
the cloak and dagger?

We're keeping this quiet.
We don't want anyone to see her.

Why? Who's the patient?

Enchanter, unholy taker.

Can you help her?

I'm not going
anywhere near that thing.

Let nature take its course.

If you stand by and let her die,

we're gonna be digging two graves.

Fine.

Chain her up.

Doc, she's half dead.

An optimist would say
she's half alive.

Chain her up.

Come on.

So you know what she is?

She's a predator.

Designed by evolution to conquer,
kill and devour.

She moves like a hunter.

Yeah, well,
she eats like a cannibal.

What kind of Votan is she?

There was an early Votan race,
one that predated the rest of us.

One that called the shots
for a very long time.

Congratulations.

You found yourselves
an honest-to-goodness Omec.

Omec?

I've heard the name,
but I heard they died out.

Supposedly they did.

Back home, we built Arks to
escape the exploding sun.

Ours worked.

Theirs didn't.

Hey!
We don't mean you any harm.

Conquer, kill, devour.

Put it on a T-shirt
so you don't forget.

According to Nolan,
there's another one.

A male.

Kill them both.

You have no idea what
you're dealing with.

That should keep you warm.

Do you speak Casti?

I'm sorry for getting rough...

...but you...

A good right hook.

Ka-pow.

Ka-pow.

Warm.

That's it.

Nice and warm.

Very flattering.

Kindzi.

Nolan.

Irisa.

What the Doc said about you guys
being cannibals,

back there in the caves,
when you licked me...

You weren't gonna eat me,
were you?

You understand me, don't you?

Oh, um...

What brings you to my stall
this fine afternoon?

Favi Ksaruko, hello.

Monguno, how's it going
with that mandolin of yours?

Fine.

He doesn't practice enough.

Uh how can I help you,
Madam Mayor?

Yes, um, a Votan friend of mine

was telling me a story today
about the Omec.

"Devils,"
as you humans would say.

Enchanters,
takers of the innocent, dark gods.

Would you call them cannibals?

Only if I were a sloppy speaker.

Cannibals eat their own species.

Whereas Omec,
they preferred eating us.

"And on the eve
of the final rotation..."

"...the chosen were placed
under waters and beneath stone..."

"...for the devils would soon emerge
from the stars for the..."

The Dread Harvest.

Every 76 years,
the Omec home planet, which is here,

would come close to
the other Votan planets.

The Omec came in giant space
vessels and spirited away

thousands upon
thousands of our ancestors.

Those harvested
were kept as slaves

until their Omec
masters grew bored.

Or hungry?

Exactly.

Those old stories are bogus.

Bogus.

You ignore your people's history
at your own peril.

I don't believe in Omec.

That's because you are
a foolish boy with work to do.

Go.

Pay no attention to my son.

The Omec were very real.

Very dangerous.

I'm here for my daughter.

OKLAHOMA CITY
500 MILES FROM

All well and good, General,

but Defiance will not go down
without a fight.

How do you plan to take the city
with such a small force?

We have a weapon.

What kind of weapon?

She said it's our little secret,

and by golly, I'm gonna keep it.

It's from a Johnny Cash song.

Ah. Ah, The Man In Black.

For a southern
member of the Collective,

your command of human culture,
General, is excellent.

After immigrating,
I studied in New York.

I lived with them,
I ate with them.

I know everything there is to know
about everything human.

Living with pigs, one grows all too
accustomed to filth.

Praise Rayetso.

But please, don't misunderstand,

I desire that filth.

Mmm.

Consider sweet Lieutenant Bebe.

An Indogene

who wore a human skin
to infiltrate a shopping mall,

killing hundreds of humans.

His skin is heroic.

I call it poetry.

We shall seize
their human language,

their land, their clothes,

the very skin on their faces.

Everything in this world
is ours for the taking.

Manifest Destiny.

Do you know the term?

Oh, I know it's a human concept.

So well-informed,

both of you.

You honor us, General.

The men are talking.

I shame myself.

So, I am trying to decide

how best to put you both to work
for the Votan cause.

Anything to serve the Collective,
General.

Good, good.

Because you, Datak,
are going to be

a saboteur for
the Votanis Collective.

You are gonna help me bring that
odious little town to its knees.

If I may, General,

without me there to calm him,

my husband is prone to fits of
intemperate anger.

You're saying
I should send you both.

It might help you achieve
the objective you desire.

Here's the thing, Stahma,

you and your husband are a pair of
treacherous snakes.

If I release you both,

you'll disappear into the woodpile
and I won't get what I want.

So, I think
it's best for everyone

if we set some
simple ground rules.

You, Datak, will go to Defiance.

You will carry out assignments
that I give you.

Any time you refuse
an assignment or fail,

or displease me in any way,

I will cut a piece off
of your wife's beautiful body.

And over time,
that can add up to one ugly bitch.

So, do as I say.

Do you even know
where we're going?

As long as the Collective are far
behind us, I could care less.

Oh, I know.

I know, baby.

I'm so sorry your terrible Casti
grandparents ruined everything.

I will protect you.

What are you gonna do?

I am going to get
food for my grandson.

It's gonna be okay.

Help her up.

I found these in our mines along
with my daughter's blood.

Well, you have nothing
to worry about, she's fine.

Where is she?

Why don't you answer
some questions first?

Take me to her.

Listen, I appreciate your patience
during this trying time,

but forgive me,
I don't know what to call you.

Eksua Tsuroz T'evgin.

Eksua is my family,
Tsuroz is my ship,

and you may call me T'evgin.

You say you have a ship?

I believe I just did.

Is it functional?

You are asking very
invasive questions

of someone
who just recently saved your life.

See, I don't know that
you just saved my life.

Hmm. I know I woke up
with a gash in my head.

The head wound was from
where the sleeper pod

was hooked into your brain.

The entire system
was losing power

and you both soon would have died,
had I not taken action.

Cutting the interface was to release
you from the pod.

And then you dumped us out
in the snow and left us to die.

You attacked us.

I wanted to kill you,

but my daughter pled mercy
on your behalf.

Speaking of which,
you will take me to her now.

Well, we still have some more
questions you have to answer.

Like, what's with
all the gulanite?

That ship of yours,
low on power?

Need fuel?

When we arrived in Earth orbit

our ship was low on fuel
and badly in need of repair.

And what happens
once that ship is functional again?

Others may have survived,
like my daughter and I did.

We will travel into deep space
and search for them.

Just the two of you?

Yes.

All right, here's the deal.

Our town needs gulanite badly.

I suggest
a sharing agreement, 50-50.

Our mines, your equipment.

Everybody wins.

These are my terms!

You will bring me my daughter

or I will bathe in
the blood of every Votan

and human until
my rage is cleansed.

Now where is she?

You finished?

I shot your daughter.

But she attacked me first,
which means I was within my rights.

And we brought her back
to town to seek medical care.

She's stable and
she's resting comfortably.

Now, I will return her to you

when you and I reach
an agreement about the gulanite.

So she's a hostage.

No, that's an ugly word.

Should be you.

Chained up.

You're the real menace.

Can we see it?

There's nothing to see,
short stuff.

Mayor came into my dad's booth
asking about Omec,

and then one showed up
outside the NeedWant.

What? You see Omec?

Didn't your dad beat you once
for calling him Omec?

There's nothing in here.

Then why is she
guarding the door?

Leave.

Now.

Don't piss her off.
She'll drop an Ark on your head.

You are her.

From book.

Goddess of Badland.

That book's trash.

Shtako, that is her.

Why didn't you kill it?

That Omec.
You kill everything.

You are murderer.

Okay, boys, that's enough.

Bye.

You are a murderer.

She-bitch.

Guys, she's alive.

There's totally an Omec in here.
Check it out.

Hey, yo, boost me up.

- What do you see?
- I don't know, it's dark.

Hold on.

Come here, little Omec.

Come on.

She's still chained up, right?

What'd you see?
What'd you see?

Come here, baby.

Come on.

Get away from there!

Go, go.

No.

No, no.

No, no, no.

No.

It's okay.

Hey. Come on.

Omec.

Is it inconsiderate
to say "I told you so"?

I never know the rules for that.

Raised by wolves.

You're not funny.

Fifty million Elvis
fans can't be wrong.

Kill the Omec!

Get him out of here.

You trying to start a riot?
Let's go.

Your Indogene was insulting.

You Omec enchanter,
ravager of the weak, devil!

Kill the Omec!

Well, at least the baby ate.

I lost my appetite.

That little boy needs his papa
to stay strong.

Family is more important than
anything else in this world, Alak.

You sound like my parents.

You mean the ones
that killed my daughter?

Your wife? His mother?

No.

I very much do not
sound like them.

You murdered these people.

How does that make
you any different?

I kill strangers
to take care of my family.

Your parents kill family
to take care of themselves.

You know, I tried to poison
my three children.

Christie was just a baby.

It's come up
in conversation, yeah.

I was sick.

The Votan monastery
that Rafe shipped me off to,

it made me hard.

But it also taught me
to look beyond my own needs.

I had to suffer
so that my children would be safe.

Safe from you.

Right?

Yes.

The shigustako
offered redemption.

Castithan style.

I took it.

I allowed them to abuse me.

And then my dear,
sweet Quentin found me.

Forgave me.

He saved my life.

Because I realized that my family,
my children, needed a mother.

I focused on that.

I wouldn't let anything stop me,
least of all your parents.

I am not your mother, Alak.

I'm Christie's mother.

You can depend on me.

I wish I could believe that.

I will never betray you.

Blood trail comes
in from behind us.

She went this way.

Must've reopened her gunshot
wounds when she escaped.

I don't like the amount of blood
I'm seeing here.

How do you think I feel?

So let's go find her.

Come on.

Oh, my God!

Do you need a doctor?

She needs a doctor!

No, she doesn't!

This Omec killed my son!

Step away from her.

Please.

Devil!

This is our new world.

There will be no Dread Harvest.

Stop!

Devil!

Devil!

Get on the ground! Now!

All of you! Down!
Show me your hands!

Get that on the ground.

Stay down.

T'Evgin. No. No!

T'Evgin, no!
Don't worry about the bookseller.

Not now.

Look after your daughter.

Look at her.

What is that?

Call it a letter opener.

I'll die before I leave you
alone here with that...

Psychopath

The McCawleys may
have been human,

but they were our humans.

Rafe was shot down like a dog.

He deserved better.

And Christie.

Make me a weapon, too.

Better we die together,
don't you think?

I'll get to work.

Pilar?

No.

No, no, no, no, no!

Pilar?

Luke!

Hey!

Hey, please. She...

She took my son! She...

She took my son.
She just...

She took him.

Please, we...

The Indogene!

Now!

Doc! We got a situation!

Hey.

Hey, hey, hey. Sweetheart.

Hey, look at me.

That's it. Focus on me.

That's it. You stay with me.
We're gonna get you through this.

Hey!

Hands off my stuff.

Take it easy, Doc.

Get this monster out of here.

I'm not gonna ask you twice.

All right.

She's bleeding out.
She needs your help.

You misunderstand me.

I don't need the little Indogene's
medical expertise.

I need protoform.

Ah!

Whoa, whoa.

Everybody calm down.

What exactly is protoform?

Indogene skin!

The Indogenes are a manufactured
race created for many purposes.

To him, I'm just
a great big tub of spackle.

- Stay back!
- All right, slow down.

In order to save my daughter's life,
I need a strip of epidermis,

six inches long
and three inches wide.

I can promise you that the Indogene
will recover fully.

Now, out of my way.

If my daughter dies,
your town dies along with her.

No gulanite. Nothing.

Nolan, hold her down.

No! No!

Kiddo.

All right. Come on.

All right.
I have a sedative.

No friggin' way!

Sorry, Doc. It's necessary.

Is 20 cc's enough
to numb the pain?

Screw you!

Now, this is gonna go a lot quicker
if you don't struggle.

How is she?

Angry.

And drugged.

Protoform is infinitely mutable.

It has many applications that are
beneficial to Omec physiology.

Killing...

...that Castithan boy was foolish.

I was provoked.

We are vulnerable.

Until our ship is repaired...

...we cannot afford to have
this town turn on us.

I am not afraid of them.

You should be.

There are hundreds upon hundreds
of them, and only two of us.

If we die, it means the extinction
of our entire race.

When our ship is powered
and our family awakens,

we will conquer these people.

On that day, I swear to you,
all scores shall be settled.

Your ride's here.

You helped me save my daughter.

I acknowledge this.

It's what we do around here.

I also accept your proposal
to share the gulanite.

Come to the mines tomorrow
and we'll discuss the details.

Thank you, T'evgin.

Get back inside!

Rayetso...

...bless my hand and grant
me sight and clarity.

End of the street.

Favi Ksaruko...

I know you're angry.

My son is dead.

You and your father
and the mayor

all fought to save the life
of the devil that killed him.

There will be no justice
until she is dead, too.

I'm sorry for your loss,

but Monguno was provoking her.

She was scared and lashed out.

You killing her or anyone else
is only gonna make things worse.

Yengi Ksaruko,
you're endangering the entire town!

Throw down your weapon where
I can see it, or I will shoot you!

Toss the gun, Favi Ksaruko.

You're not a killer.

You don't know what it's like.

What killing does to you.

I don't want you to know.

You didn't have to kill him.

- He was shooting at us.
- He was gonna surrender.

You know that?

What if he wasn't?

He would've put a bullet
right between your eyes.

Nobody forced this man
to pick up a gun

and start shooting
at innocent people.

Innocent?

Right.

Good luck.

Well done.

Well done, well done, Stahma.

I must admit you were right.

You two are more
formidable together than apart.

Your wish is granted.

You will travel to
Defiance with Datak.

You will spy for me as a team.

I bet you're thinking
there must be a catch.

Well... Bebe.

Alak.

Stahma, sit with me.

We're gonna work
on your cover story.

World gone wrong

Quiet song

Let us sing of pretty horses

Living free

Riding high

Together, you and I

You make me live

Whatever this world
can give to me

It's you, you're all I see

Three, two, one.

You make me live

You're the best friend
that I ever had

I've been with you
such a long time

You're my sunshine

And I want you to know
that my feelings are true

I really love you

You're my best friend

I've been wandering round

And still come back to you

In rain or shine
you stood by me, boy

I'm happy at home

You're my best friend

Whenever this world
is cruel to me

I got you to help me forgive

You make me live now, honey

You make me live

You make me live

You make me live
