Killjoys (2015–…): Season 2, Episode 8 - Full Metal Monk - full transcript

JOHN: Previously on Killjoys...

Is that a... JOHN: Containment
fence all around Old Town.

No one in or out.

You did a shitty thing, Semback.

You help engineer the wall, and
then they lock you inside it. Why?

Because I asked too
many stupid questions.

JELCO: Breaking into a
high-ranking officer's personal quarters

and stealing
Company intelligence.

(GRUNTING)

What is this? We
call it a Dreadnaught.

It's an execution
stick for Sixes.



(BOTH GRUNTING)

FEMALE AUTOMATED
VOICE: Welcome to Prodigy.

DUTCH: Khlyen's final transmission
from Red 17 was sent here.

Guys, it was ported
straight into Olan's head.

(GRUNTS) What's wrong, Olan?

I get these headaches sometimes.

Sometimes I see shit.

DUTCH: Aneela, the
other me you saw in Arkyn.

I think Khlyen
wants me to kill her.

(GASPS, SCREAMS)

SAM: A world of wonders.

I'm a wizard.

Look at me.

(BREATHES DEEPLY)



Oh, Johnny.

Too late.

There's no place
left for you to punch.

Although... (GRUNTS) Yeah.

Yeah, third rib
down, still intact.

'Cause really, what's a
little more internal bleeding?

Stop it. Then say it.

I let the team down.

You abandoned your team
to break into Jelco's office

and nearly got our
license revoked.

How long have you been working
with Pawter behind my back?

That's not how it
started. How long?

Pawter has her thing, which is
Westerley, and Old Town, and walls.

And you, you have yours, which
is Sixes and Khlyen and Sabine.

You're my thing, Johnny.

We're partners.

And D'avin. We're your team...

But I am in love with Pawter.

I killed Sabine yesterday.

And Khlyen left
me another red box.

So, I guess we're both
in a hard place right now.

I just didn't think
you'd be part of mine.

What are you doing?

Asking Pawter to get you out.

She's the only person you
seem to trust these days.

That's it? (LAUGHS)
You're just leaving?

So, why the hells did
you even come, then?

Habit.

So you're saying this is
every Six within The Rack?

Well, the ones
Sabine and I ID'd.

(BEEPING) Say it.

"Team Awesome Force,
you are an awesome force."

Well, that's just dumb.
I would never say that.

Well, how about
"good job," then?

Maybe. Let's see how this goes.

We've been tracking a bunch
of them through Old Town.

The guy we chased in
there is Hoolian Ducat.

No way he's a Six.

I went to the
Academy with Hoolian.

Guy saved my
ass, like, four times.

That's a bunch of ass. You
wanna take point or cover?

I wanna talk to
him. Get in his face.

See if he has any intel on
who's running this program.

(SCREAMS) So
much for small talk.

(GRUNTING)

Get back here.

(GRUNTS) Turin! Can't breathe.

Get off of me.

(GASPING)

(SCREAMING)

Ugh.

What the hells was that?

That was new.

(THEME SONG PLAYING)

His eyeballs, Dutch.

One minute, they were in
his head, the next, my mouth.

Did not taste like chicken.

Now you really need to work
on focusing your strength.

Great.

What kind of crunches
do I do for that?

And where's Johnny? I
thought you were springing him.

Lucy, can I get an update?

LUCY: Illenore Seyah Simms
has landed on Westerley.

You're getting Pawter
to bust him out?

She's Qreshi royalty.
She can get him a pardon.

I hate to say it, but right now,

she's more help
to him than we are.

Dry off. You and I need to talk.

You really let
yourself go, Jaqobis.

Yeah, this spa is shit.
Would not recommend.

I'm so sorry.
This is all my fault.

Hey, you know
that that's not true.

JELCO: How sweet.

I do love a reunion. It's
like a divorce in reverse.

How's your heart? Oh, that.

I had your little trinket
taken care of. Thank you.

Would you like it back? As a
memento of our good times together?

I'll pass. Release him. Now.

It's really out of
my hands, Seyah.

Your hands are the first things

I will have them
take for hitting him.

I'll make them leave
your eyes, though,

so you can watch me
spit down on your grave.

I'm not your hostage
anymore, Jelco. I'm your liege.

Deny me again,

and I will use the full strength
of Land Simms to step on you

like the sycophantic
bug that you are.

Power looks good on you, Seyah.

SEYAH: You're
goddamn right it does.

As Seyah commands.

(BUZZES)

Much obliged, shitbag.

Get me Seyah Kendry. Now.

Your brother and I have decided

to temporarily suspend
our partnership.

For how long?

Till he's done
with Pawter's wall,

or I finish with this.

Don't let Khlyen
pull your strings.

I need to find some solid
ground, some answers.

I need to find Aneela.

All you have is a first name, a
suspicion that she looks like you.

We don't even know
who she is, where she is,

or why Khlyen even
wants you to kill her.

We know he wants me to use this.

Okay, so she's a Six.

And where were Sixes made?

Red 17, which
doesn't exist anymore.

But we have a piece of it. Khlyen's
last transmission, all those secrets.

Are currently on Leith, locked in
the head of some asshole teenager.

I need to break that lock.

Talk to Olan. (EXHALES DEEPLY)

So this is where I choose between
helping you or helping Johnny?

You know I'd never
make you do that.

Okay, except I kind of
have to make you do that.

Okay.

Are you sure?
Johnny lied to me, too.

He could use a time-out.

Let's find Aneela.

JOHN: Oh, thanks
again for busting me out.

SEYAH: I'm not
just here for you.

I think I know why
they've walled in the town.

I'm here to prove it.

Great. But what are we missing?

You're gonna think I'm crazy.

And when does that stop you?

Okay, so, Semback said the
last time a wall like this went up,

all the old and weak
inside died, right?

Yeah, she said it was like The
Company was culling the herd

for some creepy-ass reason.

Execution Eugenics. (SIGHS)

Ooh, I like zero of those words.

It's something The
Company did way back

in the early colony
days with animals.

(MAN SNORING)
First, contain them,

then introduce a biological
contaminant that will wipe out the weak...

And leave only
the strongest stock.

JOHN: Yeah, but
these aren't animals.

These are people,
and, oh, my God!

What are you doing, woman?

SEYAH: Maybe they're
building a better workforce.

Maybe they're gonna
start exporting slaves.

I don't know. If I'm
right, the wall's a trigger

and the contaminant is
probably already here.

A poison or a virus.

Something in Old Town is
gonna kill half these people.

But not if we find
it first. Exactly.

Blood, soil, air, water.

(BREATHES DEEPLY) Let's do this.

JOHN: Later, sleepy.

After Seyah Simms
freed the Killjoy,

they headed right
back to Old Town.

Why haven't they
learned their lesson?

They're like particularly
stupid children.

All sticky fingers
and stubbornness.

They want to know what
the wall is for? Show them.

Uh, that's, uh, ahead
of schedule, no?

Do we have authority?

I'll worry about the schedule.

You worry about me if you
don't make this problem go away.

Handle them. Activate the wall.

As you wish.

(SYSTEM BEEPS)

ALVIS: You wanna talk to Olan?

Small problem.
(BREATHING DEEPLY)

He's broken.

"Broken"?

And then last night, he...
He tried to kill his brother.

Is Jake okay?

ALVIS: He's terrified.

Understandable,
considering his brother tried

to shove a fire poker
into the back of his skull.

Why would Olan
attack his brother

as if he's assassinating a Six?

Can you leave us alone?

Do you know what
a Level Six is, Olan?

They won't let me
see my brother.

DUTCH: Yeah, that's for your
own good. You're not stable.

But I wanna help, and
I'll do whatever I can.

Do you recognize my face?

You're that Killjoy.

Think.

I think you're that Killjoy.

Do you have nightmares?

I have nightmares about
someone who looks like me.

If I said the name

Aneela... No, it's okay.
It's okay, I'm not her!

Prat-tal! (GRUNTS) Wait, listen.

I'm just looking
for her. Prat-tal!

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
What does that mean?

Devil.

Olan, it's okay. You're safe.

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

No, no, no, let him.

What did you do?

I said her name. Just her name.

What is this? What do they say?

ALVIS: I'm not sure
what Olan was writing,

but I've seen these
symbols before.

Where?

Here.

On these.

Is that skin?

Alvis found it with an old
monk in the mossipede mines.

He cut it from himself
to leave a message.

The symbols match.

D'AVIN: You've been using
human skin as a bookmark.

You know that's creepy, right?

I was preserving them.

Look, I don't know this
language. Can you read it?

(SIGHS) It's Old Word.

On both the skin and the wall.

The first symbol means "Arkyn."
This one here means "plague."

After that, I'm not sure.

It's a map.

D'AVIN: Of what?

OLAN: They're rivers on Arkyn.

I felt water.

People drowning and
screaming in pools of green.

Please don't go there.

Hey, pull your mind
from the darkness.

Can't be Arkyn. There
are no rivers there.

There were a couple
hundred years ago.

That's when the 12
Scarback monks went to Arkyn

to fight the devil.

And one of them was nice
enough to leave directions.

"Devil," "Prat-tal," "Aneela."

I just get the best assignments.

(CIRCUITS SCRAMBLING)

(DEVICE PROCESSING)

I'm showing toxins in
the atmospheric samples.

They'll kill you in 50 years.

Water and soil samples
are basically clean, too,

and same with the blood work.

You know, people not being
poisoned yet, that's a good thing.

I promised Arune proof.

Who?

Arune Hyponia.

He's my only ally on council.

I asked him to meet
me here tonight,

but I have to give
him hard evidence

he can use against The Company.

And it's probably
staring right at us.

We're just too close to see it.

(HUMMING)

Oh, you look awfully
shiny and happy.

Hmm. Well,

I have to find ways
to amuse myself

since my bartender
ran off with your brother,

and I lost half my clientele.

Long story. Didn't work out.

Look, I... You know,
I keep telling you,

if you serve salty snacks,
people will drink more.

My wardrobe doesn't
allow for snacks.

But you haven't lost any weight.

(EXHALES SHARPLY) Skinny
bitch better watch what she says,

or snacks are
gonna turn to smacks.

No, no, no, no, she's right. No
one's lost any weight. No one has.

How are people eating?

They've been
walled in for weeks.

When Old Town
ran out of cat and rat,

folks started looking to trade.

JOHN: For what?

Nothing gets in and out
of here without a passcode.

Oh! Sweetcheeks, this
whole place is one big prison.

Find me one jail where guards
don't smuggle in contraband.

Maybe it's in the food.

LUCY: Approaching destination.

We're, uh, dropping into
the Arkyn atmosphere.

Fun fact, there used to be a
radiation layer around the planet,

but it shut down
with the Red 17 lab.

Something you wanna talk about?

(EXHALES DEEPLY)

I made a guy's eyeballs
explode today by touching him.

Did you touch
him in his eyeballs?

No, he was a Six.

Sixes are full of plasma,
and I can control plasma.

Hmm. Well, that's nice.

The thing is, I wanna learn
how to control what I can control,

and I figured you could help me

so the whole eyeball
thing doesn't happen again.

You know, monk me up a
bit. (CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Hmm.

Scarbacks believe that
what we think, we manifest.

So, let me ask you, did you
want his eyeballs to explode?

Asshole was strangling me. I
wanted his whole head to blow up.

Then maybe let's start by
not wishing death on someone.

Baby steps, monk.

Baby steps.

DUTCH: According to Olan's map,
this was the source of the main river.

D'AVIN: What is that?

One of Khlyen's safe houses.

Inside the last one was a red
box telling me to kill Aneela.

What's Khlyen
left you in this one?

DUTCH: Push on the wall.

D'AVIN: Is there some
kind of secret knock?

Four walls pushed. No door.

Last time, all I did was this...

Well, you're special. We get it.

Lucky, lucky me.

This one's different.

How?

The walls were translucent. I
could see the outside, and...

Upside? No red box.

Downside, no point.

(LIGHT CLICKS)

D'AVIN: Uh, did
one of you do that?

ALVIS AND DUTCH: No.

D'AVIN: Oh, good.

Shit!

We're falling!

I'm aware.

Make it stop. I can't!

It only listens to Dutch.

Stop!

(ALL BREATHING HEAVILY)

World's worst elevator.

How deep are we?

Lucy?

Lucy, can you read us?

Deep enough that
we're on our own.

Well, this is what we get for taking
directions from skin maps and teenagers.

Oh, looks like we
just missed Aneela.

By a decade or 12.

ALVIS: What the hells is this?

Must be the central command.

ALVIS: But command of what?

What were they doing down here?

Here.

Take this just in case.

You have anything
bigger? It shoots.

Yeah, but the optics. I don't
exactly look intimidating with this.

Says the grown man in a cape.

PAWTER: Pree's supplier
is just down this alley.

Alley skulking's my job.

Stop acting like I'm delicate.

(SCREAMS)

That was a regal scream, okay?

Oh, the regalest.

Johnny! Hey!

Pree said there was a Killjoy
out back who needs some stuff.

I was like, "Ah, I
hope it's Johnny."

How does he know you?

I kind of am a big deal. Mmm!

Come on. Don't you remember?

It's Carl, man.

Carl... Company guard?

From the prison wing
of mummified corpses.

I was the "still-alive"
guy with the...

Yeah! Carl, hey!

Hey. We need some help.

I'll give you 5,000 Joy for
whatever's in those boxes.

Or we could just
bribe you. CARL: Deal.

I mean, if you're gonna be
a princess, be a princess.

(CHUCKLES) So
how you been, Carl?

(DEVICE BEEPS) Better. Yeah.

People stopped trying to kill me

once they realized I could
use my Company connections

to score food from outside
the wall. (CHUCKLES)

Now, I'm king of the
contraband, baby.

Damn it, it's just vegetables,
gluten, and rat meat.

(RETCHING)

Gluten.

(DEVICE BEEPING)

Nothing. No toxins.
Just more rat.

Okay, okay.

Don't tell anyone.

I'm supposed to be
getting some kind of

"special Company rations" soon.

Should be better stuff.

Arune's gonna be here anytime.

How soon is "soon," Carl?

Clear.

I've got dust and junk.

DUTCH: More wires.

Clear. More dusty junk.

I'm tired of hearing
about your dusty junk.

All right, boys,
enough flirting.

He started it. You wish.

DUTCH: D'avin, you clear?

D'avin?

D'AVIN: Bodies.

You sure they're dead?

D'AVIN: They seem pretty dead.

(GASPS)

This one's still warm.

Stay woke.

We may not be alone down here.

DUTCH: What do you think, D'av?

Hack clones? Genetic
mods? DNA splicing?

Dutch, look.

What is that? A stent?

D'AVIN: Same thing they
put in my neck on Red 17.

That's how Khlyen's people
filled me with that plasma shit.

These poor bastards definitely
didn't survive the old process.

I guess there's still
enough residue in the bodies

to preserve them
and keep them warm

for however many decades
they've been down here.

Look at these.

Formulas?

Afferent neuro-tele.

Plastic?

Ugh. We need
Johnny for this shit.

D'AVIN: What if they
were trying different ways

to infuse the plasma
and make a Six?

DUTCH: This could
be where it all started.

The first Red 17.

Why didn't they bury the bodies?

Maybe they were in a hurry.
Running from something.

ALVIS: Hello?

Where's Alvis?
Who's he talking to?

Hello.

Idiot, don't take off...

He's alive. He...

I saw him move,
but he won't respond.

He's in some
kind of fugue state.

D'av, the wall, is that...

Same as around
Old Town? Looks like.

Or an earlier version.

What's it doing down here?
This lab predates The Company.

Here's a thought.

Let's ask the monk. Alvis, no.

It's okay. I recognize the
robes. He's one of the ancients.

How ancient?

Did either of you count
the bodies back there?

Ten. Ten beds, 10 bodies.

Yeah, add the remains of the
monk we found on Westerley.

Makes 11.

"Twelve monks went to
Arkyn to fight the devil."

He's one of the 12.

ALVIS: And
hundreds of years old.

I think he's waited
long enough to be free.

They didn't want anyone
dropping the wall, letting him out

or giving me answers.

How do we shut it off?

Short out the system?

How?

(CIRCUITS CRACKLING)

Old school is the best school.

(SLOW MUSIC PLAYING ON
SPEAKERS) (INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(MOUTHING SONG)

(CHUCKLES)

My old office.

Ah, now I'm feeling nostalgic.

Mmm. Mmm.

Yeah, well, I hate to tell you,

but I think it's
been repurposed.

By a lot of sexers.

Many, many times.

Ignore it.

Let's get started.

(GRUNTS)

Yeah. Okay. (SNIFFLES)

All right.

Now, Carl said the ration
supplies are coming to Spring Hill

by guarded convoy first, so...

I think my best shot is a
distraction en route and...

Wow.

Too distracting?

I can help.

Play the damsel in distress
card to stop the convoy

while you sneak in
and steal the samples.

I don't know.

We get our proof, we give it
to Arune, he joins the cause,

and bam!

We save Westerley
from an evil megacorp.

Undercover op, together?

I know I'm not
Dutch or D'av, but I...

(GROANS)

Ooh! (CHUCKLES)

I also know that helping
me has hurt you with them.

Let me make it up to you.

I can be badass, too.

Lady, I am the last person
you have to convince of that.

You know what's weird?

I feel good.

Well, I am an excellent kisser.

(LAUGHS) No, seriously.

I can't remember the
last time I felt this good.

Long time.

I mean, think about it.
First, your home got bombed.

Then I was held
prisoner by a psycho.

Got traded to
some rapey hill folk.

Then my parents got murdered.

You have terrible luck.

(LAUGHS)
Seriously, so, so shitty.

(BOTH LAUGHING)

Why am I laughing? Oh, I
shouldn't be laughing. That's terrible.

Gallows humor.

How sane people
survive insane times,

and you, Illenore Pawter
Simms, are sane and good,

and that's why I love you.

I love you too, Johnny Jaqobis.

You make me so
happy, I could die.

(ENERGY THRUMS)

(BREATHES DEEPLY)

Uncle.

My name is Alvis Akari.

Uncle, you're rescued.

I can take you back to
our monastery on Leith.

Prat-tal! (GRUNTS)

DUTCH: No, don't
shoot! We need him.

D'AVIN: For what?

He thinks I'm Aneela.
We can use that.

The Scarbacks didn't
come to fight the devil.

They came to fight her.

DUTCH: Hello? Are you here?

I'm not Aneela. I'm
just looking for her.

Is she the one
that did this to you?

I know you and your Order
have had terrible things

done to you here, and I'm sorry,

but you're the only one
left, and we need answers.

We wanna help you.

What happened here?

(YELLING) (GRUNTS)

Whoa, no guns! Just grab him!

(ALL GRUNTING)

Try to hold him still.
DUTCH: He's a Six.

He's holding me.

Trust me!

(CHOKING)

Feisty for a 200-year-old.

If he's a Six, I
can control him.

Alvis, some help. I'm
doing the eyeball thing.

What? Uh, shit.
Uh, breathe slow.

Be at peace. He's fighting me.

Well, fight him with peace.
You are terrible at this.

If you don't calm him
down, he's no good to us.

D'avin, have you
ever been a sniper?

You want my resume now? Yes.

Then you've meditated. Do that.

Just calm yourself.
Focus on the shots.

Focus on him.

It's working.

(SHOUTS)

(GRUNTS)

Why'd you do that?

I've heard enough about exploding
eyeballs. I didn't need to see it.

You need more practice.

(CHUCKLING) Stay still.

I have to practice
for our mission.

(BLASTER FIRES)

Whoa! Surgeon's hands.

Steady as a rock.

(DOOR CLICKS OPEN)

Illenore?

Arune, hi!

I'm so happy you're here!

Wait, why are you here?

You've asked me to come here.

And is this the Killjoy?

Yes. Johnny, Arune.
Arune, Johnny.

Johnny's my boyfriend.
ARUNE: Boyfriend?

Shh. That's a secret.

Shh!

Are you...

High?

Is it Jakk? No.

Are you using again?
JOHN AND PAWTER: No.

I do feel high, though,

I got to say. Right?

(GIGGLES) (JOHN LAUGHS)

Guard the door.
Something's wrong.

So you say The Company's
planning a slaughter?

Yes, and that is bad. (LAUGHING)

Do you think this is funny? No.

Huh? Half my family
was assassinated

for questioning Delle
Seyah in Council.

I'm putting myself
at risk right now

because you promised me
proof that she is up to something.

You just be cool, okay?

We've found the vector.

What is he talking about?

Poison. It's in The
Company rations.

Poison.

So, you have proof?

We're gonna get some.

Definitely.

So, you don't have it. Mmm-mmm.

Hmm. (DOOR CLICKS OPEN)

(CHUCKLES)

How adorable. Like two
demented helpless little puppies.

I could watch them all day.

DUTCH: He's waking up.

Prat-tal. Prat-tal!

Yeah, yeah, "Devil, devil."

It's my new worst-ever nickname.

Let's try this again.

Remember, don't fight him.

Focus on your
connection with the plasma.

"Connection."

Tiny question, what if
the connection feels like

a fistful of bees?

Oh, shit, he's gonna kill him.

No, no, no. No, he's not.

He's the goddamn center
of gravity. He can do this.

It's working.

Now tell him in Old
Word, I am not Aneela.

(SPEAKING OLD WORD)

(SPEAKING OLD WORD)

He understands you,
and respectfully disagrees.

He says, "Welcome
back to hells."

(SPEAKING OLD WORD)

ALVIS: "She's
finally back to kill me."

I am not Aneela!

Here, look.

(WINCES)

Alvis, make him watch.

Balt.

Balt, damn it. Balt.

See? I don't heal.

I am here to kill Aneela.

You want revenge,
right? I can get that for you.

Just tell me where she is.

When was the last
time you saw her?

Well, did she leave a
forwarding address, then?

Help me!

(SPEAKING OLD WORD)

ALVIS: "Who sent you?"

(DEVICE BEEPS)

This man. My tutor. His
name is Khlyen. Khlyen.

Khlyen?

(SPEAKING OLD WORD)

ALVIS: "I know that man.

"But...

(INHALES DEEPLY)

"She called him by
a different name."

What name?

What name?

"Father."

(GASPING)

Dutch?

I'm fine.

No, I'm not fine. I have
two people to kill now.

Aneela for being a hell-bitch
and Khlyen for not telling me

I look exactly
like his daughter.

Bit strange, that, huh?

Kind of thing that you'd
mention to your prized pupil.

"Oh, I'm having problems
with my daughter.

"Do you mind stabbing
her in the head?"

What the hells is even going on?

Okay, okay.

I know you're freaking out
right now, and that is fair,

but you need to put a very
sharp pin in that for later.

What do we do right now?

Let's torch this place.
It's a damn graveyard.

What are you doing? I
wanna get out of here.

Away from this place, away
from bodies, and away from death.

Kill me.

(SOFTLY) Why?

You're free.

ALVIS: Pain.

We have healers.
We can help your pain.

D'AVIN: You can't
fix centuries of torture.

He's obviously been dosed with the
green, and he needs our help to die.

Aneela... ALVIS: "You won.

(SPEAKING OLD WORD)

ALVIS: "You killed
them all. Finish this."

Kill me.

Please.

He gets to decide how
much pain is too much.

Not us.

Let me do this.

If "other" me tortured him,

"actual" me should end this.

Scarbacks have last rites.

May the Great Tree take
you into her branches.

And may the sun
forever be your blessing.

Forgive me?

No.

Virgil?

Your bodyguard
looked a little thirsty,

so I had my men take
him downstairs for a drink.

Close the door.

So you followed me here.

Obviously.

You used Seyah Simms' entry
pass while she was already here.

You could've just asked me.

Makes a lad feel like
you're plotting against him.

I have no quarrels
with you unless...

You make one.

Uh-uh! (CHUCKLES)

(WHISPERING) Pst! He has a gun.

Yours is bigger.

(LAUGHING) (GUN CLATTERS)

Hmm.

(LAUGHING)

You drugged them. In
a manner of speaking.

Well, all of Old
Town, truth be told.

These two were getting a
bit suspicious, so I had to...

(CLICKS TONGUE) Crank it up.

So, why can't I feel it?

You will if you
linger long enough.

Unless you have one of these.

Oh, don't give me that look.

I've made them happy,
complacent workers.

What's so terrible
about that, hmm?

Just how complacent, I wonder?

Shall we test?

(GRUNTS)

(GASPS AND GURGLES)

(GROANS AND COUGHS)

Huh.

I'm sorry. Don't be sad.

My apologies for
all this vulgarity.

It's just business.

Here.

You understand.

This is all bad. You're bad.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Is the little
Killjoy fighting it?

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Do you want to fight me? Hmm?

Oh, we know what you did.

Oh?

JOHN: Yeah, you
poisoned the rations.

You're gonna kill all the weak...
(SNIFFLES) And leave the strong.

JELCO: Hmm.

And then what? Don't
leave me hanging.

(LAUGHS)

I don't know.

But I'm pretty sure that
we're gonna stop you.

(WHISPERING) We're
gonna save Old Town.

(LAUGHS SOFTLY)

(LAUGHS)

Well.

I better leave you to it, then.

First, a picture of
the lovely couple.

Just hold that
there for me, love.

(SOFTLY) There you go.

The heroes of Old Town.

(CAMERA PINGS)

I'll pass this on to the
heads of The Nine Families.

Surely they'll want to
know who killed poor Arune.

It's terrible, really.

"The Eight" just doesn't
have the same gravitas.

Seyah Kendry sends her regards.

Oh, and you're right about
the rations, so good for you.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

But it's about so
much more than that.

(PREE SINGING INDISTINCTLY)

That song is pretty.

(SNIFFLES)

Pree has such a nice voice.

We have to get out of here.

Don't we?

Later. Just listen to the music.

(SONG CONTINUES PLAYING)

(SIGHS)

DUTCH: Alvis is blessing
the rest of the bodies.

Make sure they
all rest in peace.

Finally.

I know you got pretty
rocked down there.

If you need to talk...

Thank you. I'm good.

What if I'm her?

I look like her.

(STAMMERS) I dream of her.

Are we just going to
ignore the possibility?

Not a possibility. Not to me.

D'av. You are not some crazy,

ancient, psychopathic bitch.

You have a childhood,
and you have memories of it.

Khlyen plays with
memories. You know that.

Here's what I know.

You were born Yalena
Yardeen, you became Dutch,

and you will find Aneela.

Okay.

What now?

I uploaded some tech
images I took from the lab.

Lucy, tell her what you told me.

LUCY: The wall from the
lab is a functional match

with the structure
enclosing Old Town.

We kind of knew that.

Yeah, but now we
know what it does.

LUCY: Both exert a cognitive behavioral
influence, including rerouting stimuli

away from the thalamo-amygdala
and cortico pathways.

Okay, so now pretend
you're not talking to Johnny.

LUCY: It kills fear,
and triggers euphoria.

The wall acts as
a giant pacifier.

No fight, no flight,
total passivity.

When they activate it,
everyone in Old Town

becomes some kind of
helpless, happy drone.

Company can do
whatever they want to them.

What do they wanna do with them?

Lucy? LUCY: Yes, Dutch.

Contact Johnny
on Qresh. I'm sorry.

Johnny is not on Qresh.

Lucy...

Where's Johnny?

(SLOW MUSIC PLAYING)

(EXHALES DEEPLY)

(DEVICE BEEPS)

(MOUTHING SONG)

(CHEERS AND APPLAUSE)

I flew. From up there,
I flew. Like a bird.

Flying. It was wonderful.

So wonderful.

People of Old Town,
in the spirit of goodwill,

we have decided to reward
you for your cooperation

by putting an end to hunger.

(LAUGHS)

In the next 48 hours, airdrops
of premium rations will begin.

Let's put an end to
Old Town's suffering

and build a new future together.

What a beautiful day.
