Fringe (2008–2013): Season 3, Episode 18 - Bloodline - full transcript

The intensity of life "over there" accelerates as Olivia finds herself in mortal danger.

NARRATOR:
Previously on Fringe:

Our Agent Dunham,
has she made contact?

WALTER: She's on the Other Side.
Focused on the task at hand.

How did you do it?
How did you replace our Olivia?

Whatever happens to me, know
this started out as an assignment...

...but it became...
PETER: Something more.

Unh.

She's been infected
with a deadly parasite.

OLIVIA: What do you see?
FRANK: The picture on the sonogram...

- Uh-huh?
- ...you're not infected, you're pregnant.

I heard the news.



You'll have whatever
resources you need.

After all, you are the mother
of my future grandchild.

ROSA:
You're almost done.

MARILYN:
How long until we get the results?

I arranged to have
the labs run in-house.

We'll know by the end of the day.

Well, you know,
if Rachel was a carrier, then...

Honey, you are a different
person than your sister.

Nothing is set in stone.

Rosa, would you please talk to her?

Viral propagated eclampsia
is dormant until pregnancy...

...and undetectable
before eight to 10 weeks.

So until we get the results
of today's screening, nothing is certain.

You may not be a carrier at all.



Okay.

But it's hard to believe that when
the odds are 80 percent that I am.

ROSA:
On average.

And yes, the fact that Rachel had VPE
puts you in the highest risk group.

It's okay to want to prepare yourself.

Look, I know it's easier said
than done, but my best advice...

...to both of you,
is take it a step at a time.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
There's still a chance.

Mom, you weren't listening, were you?

There is an eight out of 10
chance that I'm a carrier.

And if I am, there's only a handful of
cases where either a mother or a baby...

...survive delivery with VPE.
So I don't really have a choice.

And let's face it. I mean, I'm alone. Heh.

My job is all-consuming.

My life is hardly
conducive to parenting.

Well, what about the father?

We've been over this.

You met a man in a bar
while Frank was out of town.

That just doesn't sound like you.

Never said it was my finest moment.

- I'm sorry. I don't mean to be...
- Judgmental?

Judgmental. I...

I just want you to have
the support that you need.

And I do.

You and Lincoln should get together
and commiserate.

He's not happy about this, either.

It doesn't change the fact that you'd
make a wonderful mother someday.

Mom.

Okay. Thanks for driving me.

Are you sure you're okay?
I can come upstairs with you if you like.

No. I'm good.

All right. Call me as soon
as you hear anything. Good or bad.

I will.

- I love you.
- You too. Bye.

- Dunham.
LINCOLN (OVER PHONE): Hey, it's me.

Hey.

You okay? You sound distracted.

No. I'm good.

(SCANNER BEEPS)

OLIVIA: You know,
I'm probably just being paranoid.

I didn't actually see anybody.

But you said you saw
someone yesterday.

OLIVIA:
I think so. I mean, I thought that I did.

I'm sending over a security detail.

OLIVIA:
Lincoln, you really don't have to do that.

Well, I'm your commanding officer,
so your permission's irrelevant.

Besides, if you're concerned you're being
followed, there's probably a reason.

They'll be there within the hour.

Okay. Thank you, Lincoln.

Hang tight, Liv.

(ELECTRICITY CRACKLES)

Fringe
s3e18 Bloodline

You're kidding me.
You went on a date with bug girl?

Oh, you're so smug.

At least I make attempts.
You don't even try to go out.

Because my new position
demands the majority of my time.

Your excuse is smug.

Excuse me, sir. The detail
you requested has reached the location.

- Let me know as soon as they're in.
- Yes, sir.

Thank you, agent.

I already told you,
I'm not calling you sir.

- All right. Tell me about bug girl.
- All right. First off, her name is Mona.

- Mona?
- It was tea and, uh...

- ...not going any further than that.
- Why not?

CHARLIE: Buddy, why don't you stop
focusing on me?

Just admit you got a thing for Liv.

That's ridiculous.

Although I do think if she was going
to cheat on Frank with someone...

You know what?
It's none of my business.

Yeah. I knew that was
driving you crazy.

This is Agent Lee.

What?

When?

BRANDON: Sir, I understand
you have strong reservations...

...but from everything we know, Peter is
uniquely suited to power the machine.

And if we fail to determine a reliable
way to cross between universes...

I have already stated my opinion.

We are not experimenting on children.

I have made myself clear.

(COMPUTER BEEPING)

WALTER:
Yes?

Mr. Secretary. Manhattan
Fringe Division. Agent Lee.

Agent Lee, what is it?

LINCOLN: Sir, Olivia's been kidnapped.
- What do you mean?

Agent Dunham suspected
she was being followed.

Security detail found
signs of struggle.

And her door was wide open.

Has anyone made
contact with demands?

Not yet. I spoke to her 40
minutes ago, so it hasn't been long.

- You contacted Echelon?
LINCOLN: As soon as I heard.

They're activating the satellite.

I don't need to tell you, Agent Lee...

...how crucial it is that
this matter be resolved safely.

I want information as you receive it.

Yes, Mr. Secretary.

(SIGHS)

Echelon satellite tracking online.

Give me some good news.

AGENT 1 (OVER PHONE): We got her.
- Where?

North Moore Street, moving toward the
harbor. Speed is 50 kilometers per hour.

Let's go!

AGENT 2:
Go.

Prepare to make the transfer.

(OVER PHONE)
Let me know when you're ready back there.

She's stopped moving.

Corner at Mason and Tobey.

Box positions. Front and back
covered on my signal.

- Move. Move.
AGENT 3: Move now. Go.

Son of a bitch.

They knew she had a tracker.

Yeah.

What's next?

DOCTOR: Phase One has disrupted
the regulatory process.

By now, all inhibitory
proteins should be blocked.

(GRUNTING)

Doctor, she's coming to.

DOCTOR:
She's a fighter.

Like they said.

(GRUNTS)

(GASPING)

Let's put her back out.

JOYCE:
This will help with the pain.

Good.

You should start
feeling that right away.

DOCTOR:
Let us know when she's ready.

OLIVIA:
What are you doing?

Just try to get some sleep.

I'll come back and check on you.

(FETUS'S HEART BEATING ON MONITOR)

CHARLIE:
So much for trackers being classified.

I mean, that was
a waste of valuable time.

The trackers,
they're organic technology.

Okay. Which means what?

They're distinct in every person.

And untraceable without the protocol.

There's one way the kidnappers
would know about the trackers.

Either this is an inside job,
or someone sold the information.

Excuse me, I was told
you wanted to see me.

Yes, I need you
to construct a database.

I want the names of everyone that has
clearance to know about our protocol.

Yes, sir. In the meantime,
I think that you'll want to look at this.

I've reviewed the traffic for a three-block
radius around Dunham's residence.

There's an anomaly.
The same commercial vehicle...

...cruised past her building
six times in the past week.

The chances of that are one in 756,000.

A clear statistical outlier.

A commercial vehicle?

It's registered to a livery service.

(ON RADIO)
Hazel eyes and a crooked grin

Face like an angel and a mouth like sin

Never late but always in a hurry

A love for life that takes your worries

(LAUGHS)

HENRY:
Yeah. He's crazy.

(SIREN WAILS)

Fringe Division! Hands on the wheel!

Get out of the car!

Which one is it?

Out of the car!

HENRY:
Okay. Okay.

- Turn around.
HENRY: Unh.

- Where's the show me?
HENRY: It's in the front seat.

- Where is Agent Dunham?
- What?

You've been driving by. Why?

I'm a cab driver, I got fares all over.

All right. I was worried
about her, that's all.

Once in a while, I'd drive by to make
sure she's okay. That's not a crime.

All right. Henry Arliss Higgins.
He lives on Hastings Avenue.

Wife's Jasmine. Daughter's Laura.

How do you know her?

Don't push me, Henry.

Agent Dunham happens to be
a very good friend of mine.

Sure don't seem that way.
Not from what she's told me.

You know Dunham?

Yeah, I do. I know you too.

This is the second time you pointed a gun
at me. The first was the day I met her.

You're the cab driver
from the gas station?

You helped her get away.

Well, she threatened me.

- Where is she?
- How would I know?

I didn't expect
she would come back here.

What do you mean, "back here"?

(OLIVIA GRUNTS)

Don't move, please.

Up her to 50 milligrams.
That should keep her knocked out.

JOYCE:
Fifty milligrams?

Is there a problem?

JOYCE:
No, doctor.

DOCTOR:
Good.

How is he doing?

JOYCE:
He's doing very well.

Abdominal circumference, 160.

Head, 170. Biparietal diameter, 40.

DOCTOR:
Hmm. Shouldn't be long now.

I'll make sure everything is ready.

JOYCE:
I'll administer the sedatives.

It's time for your pill.

OLIVIA: No.
JOYCE: It's for your own good.

There's no time for discussion.

Now, do I need to call
the orderlies or not?

Good girl.

Now, just relax.

All I know is she was scared.

She kept saying people
were trying to convince her...

- ...she was someone she wasn't.
- People?

The people she was running
away from. You guys, I guess.

So she said she wanted to go home?

Yeah. To some guy named Peter.

Peter?

That was his name. Look, I didn't want
to get involved in any of this, but she...

She got to me.

And after you helped her get to
Liberty Island, you didn't see her again?

I didn't expect to.

Until I ran into her
a few weeks ago on the street.

Only she acted like she didn't know me.
Like her mind got wiped.

When someone knows you and
all of the sudden, they don't...

...I don't know. I got worried.

Look, I'm not trying to ruffle
any feathers here, guys.

There's some things a guy like me
shouldn't know about. I get it.

But you start hearing things about some
other universe, it's hard to ignore.

What did you just say?

What about my taxi?

Okay. This is seriously messed up.

He knows way too many
details to be lying.

What are you thinking?

Remember after Liv's breakdown,
when she came back to field duty?

You asked me if I thought it was
possible for our Olivia to be switched?

And you said I was crazy.

What if you're not?

Hello?

ROSA (OVER PHONE):
Marilyn? It's Rosa.

I've left several messages for Olivia,
but I couldn't reach her.

Oh, well. I'm sure something
must have come up at work.

Do you have her test results back?

Yes.

I'm sorry. Olivia is a carrier for VPE.

Listen, I'd like Olivia to meet with
the trauma counselor here on staff...

...Beau Amaral. He's wonderful.
He can talk to her.

I'm sure that will be helpful.

Marilyn?

I'm here.

Tell Olivia to call me
when you talk to her.

I'd like to schedule
the procedure as soon as possible...

...before there's any
risk to her health.

Okay. I'll tell her just
as soon as she calls back.

(OVER PHONE)
Thank you, Rosa. Bye.

(BEEPING)

(DOCTOR COUGHING OUTSIDE)

(YELLS)

(GRUNTING)

Doctor, we're ready.

What are you doing to me?

(OLIVIA GASPING)

And this all from a cab driver?

Yes.

With all due respect, sir...

...if there's any truth to what
he's saying, it could be a lead.

I need to know.

Was our Agent Dunham
replaced with theirs?

She was. Yes.

And during that time, our Agent Dunham
infiltrated their Fringe Division.

I wish I was told sooner.

You weren't told because
it was classified.

Our Agent Dunham returned
safely to our side weeks ago.

And theirs?

Was sent home.

I'm beginning to think that...

...not sharing this information...

...may hinder your ability to find Olivia.

What are you thinking?

This all may have something
to do with her abduction?

Agent Dunham is
carrying my grandchild.

It wasn't part of the mission.

While she was on the Other Side,
Olivia and my son got close.

I believed the child and Olivia would
be safer if no one knew the truth.

Who else knows about this?

As far as I know, just Olivia and I.

Do you think she could have been taken
by invaders from the Other Side?

I imagine it's possible.

Or if it's as you suggest...

...that this could be an inside job.

None of us is without enemies.

You're suggesting
this may be about you?

My son was taken from me, Agent Lee.

The notion that I might lose my future
grandchild is simply impossible.

I will answer your questions.

I will give you complete access
to Olivia's mission files.

Whatever it takes. Find her.

I'll do my best, sir.

DOCTOR:
How are her ligaments doing?

JOYCE:
Supple. The chemicals are working.

DOCTOR: Okay. Calibrate the joint expander
to 18 degrees.

If her bone can withstand it,
increase to 23.

Hemoglobin count, 6.7.

JOYCE:
That's low.

DOCTOR:
I agree, it's borderline.

Uteroplacental blood flow
is inadequate.

Is her pain management
on schedule?

JOYCE: Yes, doctor. I gave her the
last sedative 20 minutes ago.

DOCTOR: Administer another 12 units
of plasma immediately.

JOYCE:
This will be her fifth transfusion.

DOCTOR:
Duly noted.

JOYCE: Acceleration at this rate is
difficult in the best of circumstances.

With her erratic vitals...

DOCTOR:
We will take appropriate precautions.

JOYCE: I'm not sure they exist.
If her body isn't ready...

DOCTOR: We have a timetable.
There will be no adjustments.

Initiate Phase Two.

JOYCE:
Have you emptied your bladder?

Yeah. I feel really kind of dizzy.

Did you empty your bladder?

You're an obstetric nurse?

You must feel some kind of calling
to do something so selfless.

You know, to help women
bring babies into the world.

I think I may have VPE.

In fact, I probably do.

My sister and her baby
didn't make it through labor.

Both their hearts gave out.

You cannot be okay with
what they're doing to me.

If you don't make them stop,
then they're gonna kill me...

...and you're gonna kill
the child that I'm carrying.

You don't have to do...

...anything.

You just have to leave me
alone just for a minute.

Please.

Okay?

We're starting the next phase
in 22 minutes.

And believe me, you don't want
to be standing when it happens...

...so stop wasting time.

Empty your bladder
and let's get on with this.

Whoever kidnapped Olivia knew she was
implanted with a subcutaneous tracker.

All employees with
level five clearance...

...had access to the biometric
tracking protocol.

But without another variable,
the list is fairly extensive.

We have another one.

What we're about to tell you
requires level 10 clearance.

Sir, I'm nowhere near that level.

LINCOLN:
Concerning this matter, you are now.

What is it?

Agent Dunham is pregnant with
Secretary Bishop's grandchild.

Oh, I see.

I'll start by cross-referencing
agents with clearance...

...with those who had access
to Agent Dunham's records.

Let me know as soon as you're done.

CHARLIE:
Marilyn's here.

You call her?

I thought it was time she knew.

I sure don't wanna do this.

All right. Listen, I'll talk to her.

You deal with Travis Bickle.

Come on. Coppola?

"You talking to me?"

No idea.

All right. Point is, Henry's probably
done with his statement.

I'll deal with Marilyn.

Thank you, Charlie.

Yeah, buddy.

We're working every lead.

Every agent in this office, they're doing
everything they can to find her.

How long has she been missing? Hmm?

I knew that something
was wrong because...

...Dr. Oporto said she wasn't
answering her phone calls.

Who's Dr. Oporto?

It's her obstetrician.

There's a possibility that...

...her kidnapping...

...it relates to her pregnancy.

She can't have the baby.

There's no way she can have the baby.

You need help with your slippers?

No.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

You're gonna get me out of here.

You're making a big mistake.
Help in here!

(DOCTOR GRUNTING)

JOYCE:
You can't leave.

Either I leave, or you bleed to death.

(LOCK BUZZES)

(ALARM BLARING)

(COUGHING)

Where is she?

(JOYCE COUGHING)

Don't worry. She won't get far.

(THUNDER CRASHES)

(PANTING)

(VACUUM WHIRRING)

Hey! Hey!

Please! Can you let me in?

Hey!

(GRUNTING)

Help me!

(YELLS)

(GROANING)

(SCREAMS)

(GROANING)

Impound brought your cab around.
Should be on B4.

Valet service, huh?

I know you have questions,
but I can't impress on you enough...

...what we've talked about
is restricted information.

Don't worry, I'm not talking. Not that
anyone would believe me anyhow.

- This is Agent Lee.
OLIVIA (OVER PHONE): Unh. Lincoln.

Oh, my God. Olivia. Where are you?

I'm in Chinatown.
I'm not exactly sure where.

Listen. Look around
and tell me what you see.

Okay. I see a dragon. It's red.

And there is a noodle store.

Listen, Lincoln. I need a doctor.

I think that the baby's coming.

What?

They accelerated the pregnancy.

You're gonna be okay.

No. I need you
to speak to my mother...

It hurts.

Liv, what's happening?

(OVER PHONE)
Olivia, can you hear me?

(GRUNTING)

I need a trace on that call!
It originated in Chinatown!

AGENT: Yes, sir!
- I know a shortcut.

LINCOLN: Yeah?
- I'm a cabbie. I know every shortcut.

(CROWD MURMURING)

(OLIVIA GRUNTING)

- What's wrong with you?
MAN: You need some help?

Oh, God. I need help.

(OLIVIA GROANING)

WOMAN:
Give her some space.

She called from a phone booth.
Canal and Market.

Did you get that?

- Canal and Market. Got it.
- Yeah. We're close.

What about the medical team?

They're en route.

LINCOLN (OVER PHONE):
Tell them she's in labor.

- That's impossible.
- No. They accelerated her pregnancy.

Lincoln, listen to me. I spoke to Marilyn.

There's something wrong.

She won't make it through delivery.

Fringe Division! Out of the way!

You heard him! Fringe!

Lincoln, I think the baby's coming.

- Let's get her inside.
- Oh, God.

Put her right here. Right here.

Olivia.

My name is Henry.

I delivered my little girl
in the back of my cab.

It's not exactly a medical degree, but
I can help until the ambulance arrives.

You can trust him.

Okay. It's nice to meet you, Henry.

Yeah. You too. May I?

- Sure.
HENRY: All right. Get your knees up, okay?

Easy. Okay. Nice and easy.

Oh, my God.

Lincoln, did you talk to my mom?

Oh, God.

LINCOLN:
Just squeeze my hand...

- ...as hard as you need to.
- You feel like you need to bear down?

- Mm-hm.
- That's okay. This baby's on his way.

Look at me. Don't think about
an hour from now, a minute.

We're gonna focus on this moment.
It's you and me.

God, I'm scared.

Put your chin to your chest. lt'll help.
Okay. I need you to push.

- One. Two.
- Keep pushing.

HENRY: Three. Keep pushing.
Keep pushing. Four. Five.

LINCOLN:
That's good. That's really good.

Promise you will stay until this is over.

There's no place else for me to be.

HENRY:
That's it. So good. You're almost there.

Come on, push.

One. Two.

I love you.

Promise me you'll save the baby.

Liv.

Promise.

I promise.

Oh, my God! I see his head!

All right. You gotta go.

Keep going. Keep going. Keep going.

Here it is! Here it is!

He's here!

(BABY CRYING)

Well, he's okay. He's okay.

LINCOLN:
You hear that?

Liv?

He made it.

(OLIVIA SIGHS)

(LINCOLN LAUGHING)

He's fine!

(LINCOLN LAUGHS)

(CRYING)

(LAUGHS)

You have a son.

(LINCOLN LAUGHING)

He's beautiful.

(SIRENS WAILING)

(CROWD APPLAUDING)

LINCOLN: Wonder what she's gonna
end up naming him.

CHARLIE: She didn't tell you?
- No.

I'll give you a hint.

It's not Lincoln.

You don't know anything, do you?

No, I don't. But I had you going.

I can't believe Liv's a mom.

Listen, you did a good job, sir.

Broyles would be proud.

Hold on. Did you just say "sir"?

Don't get used to it.

Any news?

We found where
they were holding her.

Abandoned building on Bayard Street.
Techs are there now.

- Found anything?
- No, sir. Not yet.

WALTER:
I want security assigned at all times.

Until we find whoever did this, Agent
Dunham and her baby are still at risk.

I've arranged for Secret Service.

There's an agent outside
her room right now.

Thank you, Agent Lee.

Your hard work will not go unrewarded.

I'll go up and meet my grandson.

LINCOLN:
Yes, sir.

He should have told us.

Which part?

He's a miracle.

They said it was the acceleration.

That the virus couldn't replicate
as fast as the pregnancy.

Whatever the science is...

...he's still a miracle.

(OLIVIA CHUCKLES)

I can't...

LINCOLN: They put an imposter
on our team to protect their mission.

Do the math.

Olivia, when she came back, wasn't it
around the time Broyles disappeared?

It was.

Makes you wonder
what else we don't know.

Yes, it does.

As soon as I found out
I was pregnant, all I did was...

...think about whether or not
I had the condition.

I never actually spent
any time thinking about...

...being a mom.

I mean, I...

Now I just... I don't know if I'm ready.

To tell you the truth,
all you need to do is love him.

And you can figure out
the rest as you go on.

I'm gonna need your help.

I hope so.

(MARILYN LAUGHS)

Sorry to interrupt. How are you feeling?

OLIVIA:
Good.

I'll be right back.

Do you mind if I tag along?

Not at all.

Yeah.

NURSE: You're a handsome
little fellow, aren't you?

(BABY CRIES)

Oh, sweetie. Ooh.

That goes to the lab.

MARILYN:
You're a good boy.

It's okay. It's okay, sweetie.

There's your grandson back.

Oh.

Yes.

You are so brave.

Yeah. Ha, ha.

Wow.

It is happening.

(INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE)

Why did you tell Lincoln so much?

He's a good agent.

And smart.

A lie would have made him
grow suspicious.

And I trusted that you wouldn't fail.

We didn't.
