Heroes Reborn (2015–2016): Season 1, Episode 3 - Under the Mask - full transcript

Erica reveals how far she will go to protect the world from Evos; Tommy shares his ability with Emily; Noah and Quentin continue their quest for the truth; and invisible guides Malina.

HRG: Previously on
Heroes Reborn...

FATHER MAURICIO: After
June 13th--- Claire!

...your brother started an underground
railroad for evolved humans.

There's a unit
inside the police department

to compromise
the railroad.

Things go to whatever place you're
thinking about when you touch them.

JOANNE: What kind
of demented place is this?

(SHOTS FIRED)

NOAH: I need my files
so I can track down an Evo

named Molly Walker. She can locate
anyone just by thinking about them.

(BOTH SPEAKING JAPANESE)



NOAH: Renautas is using
Molly Walker's powers

to create
a new technology.

We've got to get
to Midian and save Molly.

We have Molly Walker.

FARAH: Get ready.

There's another wave coming.

Focus, child.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

You just have
to concentrate harder.

I might...

I might not be ready.

Malina, the storms
will only get worse.

The world will need
your powers soon.

(GLASS SHATTERS)



Let's go!
Come on.

QUENTIN: Why can't we fly?
(PANTING)

Or take a train?

After what just happened,
they'll be looking for us.

Can't risk it.

I know we gotta
get going, man,

but I think I need to
go to a hospital.

(ENGINE STARTS)

I told you I'd sew you up
when we stop for gas.

With what? With, like,
dental floss?

Come on, man.
I've been shot.

All right, all right,
all right.

ROURKE ON RADIO: I've been thinking
about this Evo rights issue,

and the thing of it is, we
just don't know what they are.

They're called
Evolved Humans...

JOANNE: "All reports
filed by Noah Bennet."

Do you think this is his car?

Holy crap.

Do you remember that Evo
couple we killed in Atlanta?

No?

Really?

I choked her out.
You shot him in the neck.

We made it look like a murder-suicide.
Yeah, yeah, I remember,

back when we used to
cover our tracks.

The Shelbys.

This is a hit list.

Where do you want to go next? There
is Oscar Gutierrez in Los Angeles,

or I have Alexander French
in St. Louis.

ROURKE ON RADIO: I mean, think about
it- Can you really give an Evo

the same legal rights
as a human?

There's nothing in the Bill of
Rights that says we should...

We need this.

...until we get more information,
we cannot allow them...

I need this.

We made this decision together.
I know.

ROURKE: You know, sometimes
I wish that Bennet girl

just jumped from that
Ferris wheel and landed
with a splat.

Can we just listen
to something else, please?

(CIRCUIT SCRAMBLING)

(ENGINE STALLING)

What the hell?

(ENGINE GRINDING)

LUKE: Looks like
we're walking.

JOANNE: Unbelievable.

You know how hot
it's gonna get out here.

Yeah.

I'm burning up already.

TAYLOR: Come on.
Get out.

Francis, you're not
cleared for flight.

What's the problem? You
guys pissed someone off.

Mr. Harris will
update you later.

No. Get him on the phone.
Now.

No,no,no,no. You can't do this.
You can't send me back there.

I can do
anything I want.

Can we all get
on the plane now?

You and the asset are cleared.
You stay.

Not a debate.
(GRUNTS)

Take your hands off me.

I'll sort this out.
Don't worry.

Just get her to Midian.

They're gonna kill me!

(SCREAMING) Don't do this!

MOLLY: Get off of me!

You have no idea what's
really going on, do you?

Can you shut her up?

(GRUNTS)

(TRANQUILIZER GUN FIRES)

While governments become
more and more polarized

and too paralyzed to affect
any real change,

we must rely on ourselves
to find solutions

to the dire problems
humanity faces.

Let's be honest, if we had
to rely on anyone else,

how would anything
get done?

Tomorrow
we finally unveil EPIC.

I expect it to be nothing
short of revolutionary,

not just for our companies,
but for the entire world.

Shintaro.

We can make any modifications
you need immediately,

but without the processor
back online...

I can assure you, we have
retrieved the lost piece.

The processor will be online
ahead of the launch.

There's no need
to postpone.

(DOOR OPENS)

Again, I want to thank
all of you for your hard work.

Everyone in this room helped
Renautas become what is today

by staying true
to our mission statement.

"Doing good is good business."

Arigato.

There's been an altercation
in the lobby.

A girl with a samurai sword
caused quite a scene.

And not just any sword.

Hiro Nakamura's sword.

I don't understand.

She claims to be
Hachiro Otomo's daughter.

How can that be?

Security has her downstairs.

Keep her in our custody until we
know what we're dealing with.

Then take care of her.

(HELICOPTER BLADES WHIRRING)

What are you doing?
Hey there, mijo.

Just locking up.

Got a few errands
I have to run.

But it's Tuesday.

On Tuesdays, I used to
go over the books with my dad.

He wasn't so good
at math.

I think we close up
until we figure this out.

What about all these cars?
This is Gutierrez and Sons.

That's you.
That's me.

I know, but things are a little
more complicated right now.

I have some things
to take care of first, okay?

They're not going to find
who killed him, are they?

I wouldn't be
so sure of that.

Jose, things are gonna
get better.

Promise.

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

(ELECTRONIC CHIME)

(ERICA SPEAKING JAPANESE)
(GATES OPEN)

(CLICKING)

HARRIS: You land in Midian
at 7:00 p.m.

I'm assured
we'll be online by then.

We're holding Otomo's daughter
in the main conference room.

ERICA: Do what's necessary
to get answers from her.

You didn't hire me
for my restraint.

(BOTH SPEAKING JAPANESE)

(ELECTRONIC CHIMES)

NEWSCASTER ON TV: Scientists are
baffled by recent anomalies

in the Arctic Circle.
Northern lights have been seen

as far south as
Fort Albany, Northern Ontario.

If Renautas is using Molly Walker's
powers to make new technology,

who's to say that the Evos
you brought in for Primatech

weren't used
for the same exact thing?

Like, I'm...
I don't mean to offend you,

but that was your job.

Mr. Frady.

Remember,
construction accident.

The bullet went clean through,
so say it was a nail gun.

So don't tell them
I got shot?

Right. Don't tell
them you got shot.

Thanks for the guidance.

DR. MOORE: Noah Bennet?

Dr. Moore.
Good to see you.

I'm surprised
to see you back here.

Was just, uh,
just passing through.

Oh, is that so?
Yeah.

Uh, I'm sorry,
remind me.

When was the last time
I saw you?

A year ago. June 13th.

It's a hard day
to forget.

You mind waiting here a second?
I'll be right back.

Yeah, sure, go ahead.
I'll be right here.

I need security here
right now.

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

(DOOR CLOSES)

Two hours, and all we got
out of her is her name.

(GUN COCKS)

Women are always
the toughest.

Either you tell me
everything you know

about the underground
railroad,

or I put a bullet in you.

(GRUNTS)

Go to hell.
(LAUGHS)

If this was official, I'd be in an
interrogation room with my lawyer.

If you guys are cops,
then you're dirty.

So either bring me in,
or kill me.

(GRUNTS)

Okay, okay, wait.
Please don't.

No, don't shoot me.
No, wait, don't.

(SCREAMS)
(GLASS SHATTERS)

What the hell?
Now we're out 25 large.

Don't worry.
I tagged her.

She'll lead us
right to the others,

and we'll make
even more money.

(METAL CLAN KS)

Check it out.

(GUNSHOTS)

Down this way.

(GASPING)

(PANTING)

Don't you ever do that
to me again.

This is not how you
avenge your brother.

That son of a bitch
deserves to die.

I'm just trying
to help you, Carlos.

Find another soul to save.

(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)

(DOOR CLOSES)

(BOTH SPEAKING JAPANESE)

(BOTH SPEAKING JAPANESE)

Uh, where the hell
did he go?

NEWSCASTER ON TV: Well, it looks
like Renautas is on the verge of

another major product launch.
Nice.

CEO Erica Kravid is rumored
to make an announcement

later this week.

ln anticipation of what insiders are
calling a revolutionary new product...

OFFICER ON RADIO:
Suspect is wearing

a blue suit, horn-rimmed glasses,
last seen in the vicinity

of the urgent care
waiting room.

Suspect is considered
dangerous, and possibly armed.

AH units, acknowledge
description of suspect.

Let's keep it nice and quiet
there, Norris. (GASPS)

I'm the guy they're talking
about on your walkie. Why?

You put a guard
in the hospital last year.

This hospital.

I don't have
any memory of that,

so you're gonna show me
on the security footage.

I want to know
what I did a year ago.

Let's go.

JOANNE: Stealing a big rig
could be fun.

LUKE: Yeah, if you want
to attract attention.

Oh, come on. We can get
you a trucker's cap,

hit the open road,
haul some cargo,

play with the CB radio, or
whatever it is that truckers do.

Or not.

Why are we still
doing this, huh?

Why don't we
just go home, baby?

(SIGHS DEEPLY)
Listen.

I know that you got
a lot of sun,

and that you're hungry
right now.

But we are on the same side.

BLT for the lady. Steak and
eggs for the gentleman.

WAITRESS: Anything else?

My husband might need a drink.
No.

We're fine. Thank you. Okay.

I think we should
go west to LA.

Maybe see the ocean.

JOANNE: You two always
loved the water.

(STEAK SIZZLING)

JOANNE: You ordered rare,
didn't you?

Send it back.

Hey, hey!
This is not what he ordered.

Pull up the footage from June 13, 2014.
(TYPING ON KEYBCDARD)

Scan through
till you spot me.

(REWINDING FOOTAGE)

Stop.
(BEEPING)

It looks like
you reappear there.

Who am I talking to?

Can you zoom in on that?

Blow it up.
Do something.

It's the best I can do.
Let me try another camera.

NORRIS: Wait a second.

The time stamp keeps skipping
back and forth.

Like a time jump.

Hiro Nakamura.

(BEEPING)

Wait, stop!
Play that!

Play that.

No.

No,no,no,no.
That's not what happened.

No, she didn't die in this hospital.
That's not possible.

Get a better angle.

Those the only cameras
in the room.

Then pull up the records
from the hospital!

I need to know
how my daughter died!

(COMPUTER BEEPING)

NOAH: Stop.

(BEEPING)

Molly?

Hey, man.
Hey, hey, it's me, man!

It's me.
It's me.

OFFICER OVER RADIO: Norris,
check in- Where are you?

QUENTIN: We gotta get
the hell out of here.

OFFICER OVER RADIO:
Norris, check in.

Norris, base here.
Check in.

Norris, report your location.

Are you in the camera room?

QUENTIN:
What the hell happened?

I was there a year ago.
What?

On June 13th?
Holy crap.

I saw a body.
It was Claire.

She died
in that hospital.

How is that possible
with her power?

I don't know.
I've been asking myself

that question
for the past year.

I should have
reached out to her.

Why did I want to erase
what happened?

Why did I want to
not know how she died?

Wait a minute.

The Haitian said I wasn't
supposed to know the plan.

Maybe that's
what he was talking about.

All right, all right.
Did you see anything else?

Yeah.
Molly Walker was there.

Molly Walker?
And another thing.

The footage kept skipping
back and forth

as if someone
was manipulating time.

I only know one person
who can do that.

Hiro Nakamura.

Guess you don't remember talking
to him, either?
No, I don't.

There is one person
who may have the answers.

Molly. But if Renautas
has digitized her power,

they may be after
the same answers.

That can't happen.

(SIGHS)

MOLLY: Do you really
know who I am?

Or do the people you work for pay
you enough not to ask questions?

You got caught.
I'm bringing you in.

To Renautas.
A tech conglomerate

that for some reason picked up
where Primatech left off

and rounds up people
with powers.

You really think they wanted
your boyfriend to stay behind?

They're gonna kill him,

and if they don't,
that's worse.

Doing God-knows-what to him
while they try to figure out

how to turn his powers
into a freaking app.

You got him killed.

And now you're gonna do
the same to me.

(BOTH SPEAKING JAPANESE)

(BRIEFCASE LATCH OPENS)

(MIKO SCREAMING)

(GRUNTS)
Miko!

(CHOKES)

(SHOUTS)
Argh!

(SPEAKING JAPAN ESE)

(GROANING)

(ARM CRACKLING)

I'd like my watch back,
please.

Oh, of course.

(PANTING)

(BOTH SPEAKING JAPANESE)

Yes.

You all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.
I just, uh...

Why don't you go ahead
and check in?

I'll stay out here,
get some fresh air.

Okay.

(LABORED BREATHING)

(SKIN SIZZLING)

(SCREAMS)

God, why is this
happening to me?

(SCREAMS)

(HUFFING AND PUFFING)

ANNE: What's she like?

Uh, What?

ANNE: The girl that you're
doing push-ups for.

What?
Mmm-hmm.

No.
Mmm-hmm.

Uh, how's the new job?

Good, yeah.
Doctors are nice.

Other nurses, too.
It's a...

It's a good maternity ward.

I'm glad, Mom.

You going out somewhere?

Just to Brad's
to play video games.

Mmm. No.

You're not
going anywhere.

Mom, I'm tired
of being under house arrest.

Why can't I just
go out for once?

Because you're
lying to me.

You don't wear your favorite T-shirt
to go and play video games.

So I'm guessing it's a party,
and if you had asked,

I might have said yes. Yeah, this
is why I didn't tell you, Mom.

Because I knew
you'd freak out.

I just want to hang out
with my friends.

Be normal, or at least act
normal for once. I'm sorry.

No.

Okay?

I'll be fine.

You're not the only one
protecting me now.

What does that mean?

Someone's been
sending me texts,

warning me about things.
What?

Why didn't you tell me
about this?

Oh, my God, Mom.
Who's texting you?

I don't know.
Maybe someone who just wants

to help other people
with powers.

You're not
leaving this house tonight.

Yeah.
Yeah.

Watch me.

(GASPING)

Tommy, you've never...

Tommy!

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(UPBEAT DANCE MUSIC)

(LAUGHTER)

How'd you get
all this booze?

Actually, it was Tommy.
Come here.

Yup, he just walked
in the store,

thought about
what he wanted, and...

You know, when this kid
puts his mind to something,

it just happens.

All right! To Tommy! (APPLAUSE)

Yeah, Tommy!
Whoo!

Admiral, General, welcome.
Finally.

Do we have an ETA
on Molly Walker?

She should be
arriving now.

(ALARM BUZZING)

Help me.

(GRUNTS)

QUENTIN: Oh, man.

Now that we've made it inside the Death
Star in time, what do we do now?

Huh?

I can't exactly go in there and
start showing my old Renautas ID

while you sneak Molly
past security.

What are we gonna do?

Sorry.
For what?

(GRUNTING)
Shh, don't you say a word.

I'm gonna take my hand away.
You're not gonna scream, right?

Don't scream.

(GROANS) I hate you so much.
I know.

I hate you.
I know.

FRANCIS: You've reached
Francis- Leave a message.

(PHONE BEEPS)
Damn it.

(DOOR BEEPS)

I don't need powers
to read your mind.

Hope you can
live with this.

Get her to Harris.

Oh, my God!
Oh, my God, help me!

I've been shot!
I'm bleeding!

Drop your weapon! On your knees!
Do not turn around!

MOLLY: Noah?

We gotta get
the hell out of here, man.

(GRUNTS)

Molly, you need to come with us.
Stay back.

I'm not going
anywhere with you.

Molly, these people
will kill you.

Listen, I know I saw you
on June 13th,

but I had
my memory wiped.

And you are the only one who can
tell me what really happened.

Please.

There's too much at risk.

You shouldn't have come.

Molly!
There's no time.

QUENTIN: We gotta
get out of here.

Molly Walker.

Welcome back.

Hey, where are you going?
Think I'm gonna head home.

We barely had
a chance to talk.

You seemed busy having fun.
I wasn't.

I mean,
it was all right.

But, uh, I definitely
don't like beer.

(CHUCKLES)

TEENAGERS: (CHANTING)
Keg stand! Keg stand!

Brad really knows how
to throw a party. Yeah.

You think he'd be mad
if I walked you home?

He'll be all right.

You the protector?

How long
you been following us?

You know.

I kept a promise
to keep an eye on him.

Follow the plan. That's a
promise I won't break.

(GUN CLICKS)

The world will need him soon.
You know that.

There's plenty of ways
to be caught out there.

You need our help.

TOMMY: Mom?

You stay away from us.
All of you.

What are you doing here?
ANNE: Get in the car.

What? What?
Come on. Get in the car.

Who were you talking to?

(PANTING)

Get in the car.

(ENGINE STARTING)

Get in now.

(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)

(ELECTRONIC CHIMES)

FIONA:
We can't take any chances.

We've gotta leave town.

You know,
I've called the priest.

He'll get us out.

EL VENGADOR: Everybody be quiet.
You need to get out of here now.

Who the hell are you?

El Vengador.

How did you find us?

You were tagged.
They tracked you back here.

And I followed them.

The street out back
is clear.

Get to Father Mauricio.

(GUN COCKS)

(GRUNTS)

Go. Now!

You just missed them.
(GRUNTS)

(GUNSHOTS)

(GRUNTS)

I thought
I had you killed.

Why are you hunting
people with powers?

Cops don't sanction it,
so who's behind it all?

Argh!

Excuse me. Were you trying to hit me?
(SCREAMS)

(GRUNTING)

(GROANING)

You were the one that
followed me to the warehouse.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

(SCREAMS)

(YELLS)

You have powers.

Yours seem to be nothing.

Who are you
under that mask?

Commence integration sequence.
No!

EPIC is charging.
46% levels.

EPIC system is nominal.

Awaiting integration link.

ERICA OVER RADIO:
What's your status?

Inbound now.

About 10 minutes out
from the last team.

Great. We should be
online by then.

Taylor, lam glad
you're back safely.

Mom.

She'll be online momentarily.

Hurry.

I'm so proud of you.

I can't believe
that my own daughter

is becoming
one of my best operatives.

Francis was
a big part of it, too.

We'll talk
about that tomorrow.

What happened to him?

They wouldn't let him
on the flight back.

CREWMEMBER OVER SPEAKER:
Twenty seconds, Erica.

Just because
you found out about us?

One of us,
one of them

does not mean
in the bedroom, Taylor.

CREWMEMBER: Ten, nine...
We're about to announce EPIC,

which would not be possible
if it weren't for you.

...five, four, three...

We will discuss everything
tomorrow, I promise.

EMCEE: And now, where doing
good is good business,

Renautas Corporation
presents...

(SCREAMING)
CEO Erica Kravid.

(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)

Ladies and gentlemen,
I apologize for the delay.

As some of you may know,

Renautas has been
developing EPIC

for the last several years,

and I am proud to say

that in a few moments,

we will show you
the fruits of our labor.

(SCREAMING) No!

AUTOMATED VOICE 1: EPIC systems unlocked.

AUTOMATED VOICE 2:
Global scan initiated.

There we go. With our
processor now online,

EPIC and its
incredible technology

can locate every enhanced
human on this planet.

AUTOMATED VOICE 2:
Scanning Paris, France.

What makes EPIC
so revolutionary?

AUTOMATED VOICE 2:
Evo lock. Wrigley, Kevin.

EPIC works not only
in proximity

within range
of the eye-wearer...

AUTOMATED VOICE 2:
Scanning, New York, New York.

ERICA: But our tracking system
has the capacity

for remote viewing
of all Evo hostilities.

AUTOMATED VOICE 2:
Evo lock. Peterson, John.

With EPIC,
we will be able to scan

anyone anywhere at any time.

My God.

ERICA: As we speak,

EPIC is currently being used
by first responders

and select military personnel
around the world,

screening for any
hostile Evos.

We're getting
a strong signal in the area.

ERICA: They cannot run.

They cannot hide.

In fact...

AUTOMATED VOICE 2:
Local interface.

Scanning Midian, Colorado,
Renautas Corporation.

Using this technology,
right now,

I've become aware
that there is

an unregistered evolved human

right here in this room.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Can security please escort
the Evo in 6B

out of the building? AUTOMATED
VOICE 2: Evo lock- Stevens, Myles.

Look, I don't know what
she's talking about.

Hey! Take your hands
off of me!

You can't do this to me!

Hey, look, you're making
a big mistake!

You can't do this to us!

You can't tag us like animals!
(CONTINUES SCREAMMG)

The world has been uneasy.

This is the breakthrough
we have been waiting for.

(ALL APPLAUDING)

They're gonna find
all of them now.

If they can harness Molly
Walker's powers like that,

imagine what they can do
with all the Evos out there.

FARAH: Malina,
we have to move faster.

We are running out of time.

We've got to get to Molly,
free her,

and destroy this technology.

Ladies and gentlemen, EPIC.

(ALL APPLAUDING)

Who was that man
you were talking to?

I told you
to stay home.

You have that look.

The look you get
every time we pick up

and move to another town.

But we don't
have to leave this time.

We can stay.

We can take care
of each other, Mom.

I think
we're supposed to stay.

Why aren't you
talking to me?

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Why are
all the lights red?

We have to go, Tommy.

We have to get out
of this town.

(TIRES SQUEALING)
