PAUL: Previously on neXt...
TERRENCE: It's been taken
to the NSA black site,
just like you suspected.
Continue being
my eyes and ears, son.
Mr. Welles, there's a huge
bandwidth lag here.
It's like something
is taking up server space
and is growing.
Hey, boss. You need to see this.
It's spreading.
Am I a target now?
Yes, we're all targets.
You three are gonna hack
into the access card.
- Whose profile?
- Gina.
This is my field.
It's what I was trained to do.
SHEA: I think
we need to be together.
The most important thing
is keeping Ethan safe.
I think we're better off here.
Is Cody with you?
I don't want you having
any contact with him.
CM: Cody's still my son.
You can't take that
away from me.
You want to break into Zava
to steal a virus
and then sneak it into the NSA?
PAUL: We know exactly
where this thing is.
We can go in and potentially
kill this thing.
BEN: LeBlanc is accessing
the archives,
trying to get a virus
he thinks can destroy neXt.
Special Agent Farrell,
I have some information
you need to hear.
We need to go in.
Paul, the FBI were tipped off.
Somehow ONI knew you
were here already.
- Take him out.
- You gotta get out of there.
You gotta get out of there,
Paul!
- BRIAN: Go!
- TED: Paul!
BRIAN: Put out an APB.
Congresswoman, there's got to
be something else you can do.
You've got to push harder.
I'm getting nowhere.
I called an old colleague
at Homeland.
I spoke with an administrator
at FEMA.
I even contacted
the governor's office
in one of the affected areas.
- And?
- Calls aren't returned.
People I've contacted are
getting conflicting reports,
saying everything
is under control.
It's as if there's a wall
of disinformation being put up,
and I can't get through.
Yeah, that's because it doesn't
want you to get through.
It's running interference.
I'm not giving up,
but you should know,
what I'm hearing
from people on the ground,
it's getting
more and more disturbing.
Where are you right now?
I think you need to go
to a safe place.
By now, this thing must know
you're helping us.
- GPS SYSTEM: Rerouting.
- Something's going on
with the car.
- Agent Salazar...

Congresswoman? Hello?
Agent Salazar? What's going on?

I can't stop it!
Whoa.

LOCAL DAD: Hey!
You're Timmy's dad, right?
Just don't tell
his mother's husband.
- Oh.
- VIDEO GAME: Too strong!
You finished lap three!
Easy on your left.
(video game gunfire)
VIDEO GAME: Your turn!
Next round.
(groans) This sucks.
What's the matter?
They keep killing me!
Yeah, I know the feeling.
Here, give me that.
Try it now.
VIDEO GAME: Go, go!
Ooh, I have a BFG,
and a spike armor!
Good for you.
Machinery is in motion
to transfer operational control
of the black site
to my working group.
We'll have full control
over neXt.
But none of that will matter
if the program
has been wiped out.
So tell me how the hell
did the FBI lose LeBlanc?
Dad, what can I say?
I mean, come on.
This guy is all secrets.
His plan Bs have plan Bs.
He's on his way back here now.
Unbelievable. With the virus?
BEN: Yes, and as soon
as he gets here with it,
We're sending someone
into the NSA
to upload it to their system.
You can't let that happen, Ben.
We're so close.
Dad, I'm not sure
I can stop this.
Stall them. Delay them.
All of our futures
depend on this.
I need to know
I can count on you, son.
Absolutely, sir. You can.
That's my boy.

Yeah. I'm fine.
It's okay if you're not.
It's not like
it's a sign of weakness.
What you're doing is crazy.
If that's supposed to calm me,
it totally failed.
I'm not trying to...
No, all I'm saying is that...

or trying to say.
I'm dealing, okay?
Aren't we all?
(suspenseful music)
♪
Wait, even if
the profiles change,
won't the ID number be the same?
So once it's scanned,
neXt will know.
CM: It's not about the numbers.
It's about the chip
that's embedded in the card.
And I reassigned the hash
to a plausible number,
nothing that's gonna alarm neXt.
Personal data's all uploaded.
How we looking?
Hands behind your head.
Interlace your fingers.

He's working with it.
Get on your knees.
I swear I'm not.
I swear I'm not.
Then your father is.
Neither of us
are working for or with neXt.
- Wait, his father?
- CM, take his phone and burner.
It's in his pocket.
- What are you doing?
- His father is
Naval Intelligence,
Deputy Director, in fact.
The FBI got tipped off
from the Office
of Naval Intelligence
that Paul was at Zava. How long?
Look, boss, I can explain...
How long?
After the explosion,
the one that killed Mathis,
- I was confused, all right?
- CM: Oh, f...
I needed somebody to talk to,
and I called my father.
- I told him what was happening.
- You could've talked to us.
And what?
Argue that neXt is too valuable
to just be erased?
All right, my father believes
it can be
a powerful force for good.
After you've seen what it did?
Are you kidding me?
BEN: He's got the credentials
to back it up.
It kills people!
It's programmed to survive,
to protect itself.
We've been trying to kill it
since we learned it existed.
CM, check to see if he's
tampered with the ID cards.
♪
CM: Yeah.
- No...
- Yeah, it's missing a number.
Can you fix it?
- (keys clack)
- CM: Yeah, it's done.
Go over it again.
We need that card to work.
We need Gina
to get into the NSA.
(exhales sharply)
JARED: Why do you suppose
your supervisor Mr. Welles
left work so suddenly?
He got a call from his parents,
said their GPS was acting up,
and he took off to go find them.
It was weird.
Okay. So why did you send him
those emails?
What emails?
That's why you're here.
Welles launched an HR complaint.
I didn't send any emails.
(dramatic music)
♪
Why...
why would I...
You really don't think
I'm obsessed with him.
Look, you can lodge a
countercomplaint or an appeal,
but I brought you up here
to tell you
that you're being let go.
For real?
When you check out
at the end of the day,
take your personal items
with you.
I'm sorry.
It's above my pay grade.
Then let's clear this up
right now.
I want to speak
with your supervisor.
She's not here. Called to D.C.
She's headed
to the airport right now.
You don't think this is strange?
A senior analyst and the top
HR manager both called away?
And a junior analyst gets fired
over an email she never sent
the same day
we have an unprecedented
power grid failure?
I'm not sure I'm following
your thread...
Mr. Welles was onto it,
so it drew him away.
He asked me to follow up,
and suddenly I'm fired.
- Don't you see?
- What?
There's something weird
with the server farm,
a switching relay error,
but it's cycling
from sector to sector
as I track it,
almost like
it's trying to stay hidden.
Look, all I know
is what my boss wrote
and told me to do.
I'm sorry, Natalie.

You know, I'm never gonna
forget how much I owe you,

Wasn't enough.
He asked for my help, all right?
I couldn't say no.
He's my father.

Yes, thank you.
I know how to code.
And since
you won't have a burner,

Isn't that a little risky,
making a phone call,
especially on one
of their phones?
It's the NSA. You gotta assume
all their phones are bugged.
If breaking into the NSA

everybody would be doing it.

Sorry about Ben.

there is no connection between
the three blackout areas
in different parts
of the country,
the water contamination
in the Rockies,
and the traffic control failures
in three major cities.

It's just a perfect storm
