Resurrection (2014–2015): Season 2, Episode 6 - Afflictions - full transcript

Previously on "resurrection"...

All the returned that had
loved ones here in town,

They let them stay.

The rest of them they took.

Where? Nobody knows.

That man. He wasn't dad.

I know, ray.

Are you gonna invite me in?

All of our troubles started
with that girl.

We're making my bad luck chili.

Oh, wait.
That's before your time.



We can be friends.
And I think we both need one.

They were better off
without you.

You just let go.

Rachael, can you hear me?

Oh, m-my baby.

People are getting sick.

There's nothing more
I can do for you.

You knew about this already.

Man: Over here!
We've got a survivor!

Agent bellamy.

What can I do for you? I'm sick.

I need help.

You have the virus.

I don't know.



I thought you could, uh...
Agent bellamy?

I thought... Agent bellamy.

Hey. You didn't sleep, did you?

You talk to marty?

Maggie: He's gone.

What?

He took all his stuff,

Left a note saying
he was looking for answers.

Haven't heard from him since.

I left him a message
about my mom.

And he didn't call you?

Well, that doesn't sound
like him.

Are you sure he's okay? No.

But I'm tired of asking.

I wish I understood.

Why do they come back.

Just so we can lose them
all over again?

Maggie...

What exactly did you see
last night?

I told you.

Margaret and your mom
were talking,

And then she was just... Gone.

Did margaret seem upset?

No.

But your mom was.

But... Margaret definitely
saw her disappear.

Yes.

I mean... I think.

It... it was dark, but... Yeah.

You okay?

Maggie.

Aunt lucille.

Is my grandmother here?

Can I help you with something?
Maggie.

Are you sure?

Oh, maggie.
I'm so sorry for your loss.

Thank you.

Why is this happening?

How can they just
disappear like that?

Margaret: Be careful
with that, jacob.

We want to be
able to fly it again.

Honey, go wash your hands.

There's oatmeal in the kitchen.

Ma...

Margaret: What is it?

It's my mom.

Last night, you were
in the park with her when...

Last night?

No, I was home all evening.

What's happened?

Weren't you with her
when she... Disappeared?

Disappeared?

What do you mean?

Elaine said she saw you. I...

The last time I saw barbara.

Was at frederick's house
yesterday morning.

She seemed perfectly fine.

Maybe she's just left town.

No.

No, as far as we know,
she's not coming back.

Maggie... Maybe
elaine was mistaken.

It was dark.

Yeah.

Hmm? Yeah.

Um... I...

I thought you were
the last to see her.

I thought...

I was hoping you could tell me
how she was.

Oh, I wish I could.

I'm sorry, maggie.

Well, thank you.

I should get going.

What is this? Where am I?

You're in a government facility,

And you're receiving
medical treatment.

This is just a sedative.

You were extremely distressed
when you came in.

I don't want a sedative.
I'm okay.

I have it, don't I...

The virus the returned
have been getting.

Yes. You do.

What do you know about it?

It appears to be a mutated form
of the spanish flu,

Possibly with a precursor virus
that was harbored in birds.

It's contagious,
but only amongst the returned.

And only as long
as symptoms present.

Well, that's good, right?

You know what it is,
so you can make a vaccine.

Unfortunately, the virus is
mutating too quickly for that.

So, what?
There's nothing you can do?

We have a treatment.

It's experimental,
and it's not a cure.

But it suppresses symptoms
temporarily.

Is that safe?

Would you prefer the injection
in your arm or your hip?

Whoa, whoa. Wait.

I want to talk to the woman,
the one I report to.

I'm not taking anything
until I see her.

I think that would be unwise.

Why?

Because your fever will escalate.

And you'll become delirious.

You'll bleed from your ears
and your nose,

And eventually your skin
will take on a bluish tint.

Due to a lack of oxygen
in your blood.

And then you'll disappear.

Get her. Now.

Man: Good morning, mr. Langston.

Man ♪2: Sir.

Mr. Langston,
it looks like we'll meet.

That September deadline
after all.

Woman: Hello.
Langston furniture factory.

The new shipment of pine
just came in.

Hey, that table you designed
is gonna turn out great.

It'll be ready tomorrow.

Jacob: This is so cool.

Remember there was a table
over there?

And remember how
it used to smell in here?

Yeah. Smelled like paint.

And wood...
wood if it was grass.

Sawdust.

Hey, dad. Look.

That's where your office was.

That's right.

You always kept jelly beans
in your desk drawer, remember?

I remember.

It's gonna be your office
one day.

Maybe.

Why? You don't
want to work here now?

Do you really think
I'll be here that long?

You know, we could have
stayed home today,

But I thought it was important
that we come.

You know why?

Nobody can predict the future.

But that doesn't mean
that we should live.

As if we won't have one.

We have today,
we have right now,

And we hope for tomorrow.

Let's see who that is.

Hey.

Can I help you?
Yeah. I'm brian addison.

Henry langston.
This is my boy, jacob.

Well,
you're not from around here.

No. No, but I've got a cousin
who lives here.

And I know a great piece
of property when I see one.

Well it's not for sale.

No? Really?

That's too bad.

Very versatile,
close to the river,

Not too far out of town.

Look, I...
I know what it looks like.

It's all rundown.
But I'm planning on.

Getting it going again
back to what it once was.

Really?

Well, that is
a very ambitious goal.

Well, I'm an ambitious man.

Well, tell you what...
if you're serious about this.

And you need an investor,
just give me a call.

Hmm? Sure. Thanks.

It was nice meeting you both.

Nice meeting you.

Jacob.

Exactly what part
of me saving your life.

And let's not forget
you're the one who called me.

I just want some answers.

Don't you think
I'm at least entitled to that?

We think a returned
brought back this virus.

From the early 1900s.

When the virus went through
their metabolism, it mutated.

Now only other returned
seem to be able to catch it.

As you know,
it spread in arcadia,

But it was also brought here.

How many returned have died?
Disappeared?

So far, we've lost 66.

The actual virus
has a 23% mortality rate.

But if you reach the final
stages of this illness,

You will... you disappear.

I know.

You said we should just
let them get infected,

That this might be
the natural course.

Of a returned life cycle.

That's right.

Then why treat them?

Just because this may be normal.

Doesn't mean we shouldn't
collect all the data we can,

Including data on how
they respond to treatments.

Did you invent the treatment?

No. I'm not a scientist.

So, what do you do here?

I'm a statistician.

A statistician? Mm-hmm.

So you're gonna tell me
this is an accounting firm?

Take the medication,
agent bellamy.

Is that a scar on your neck?

It's a birthmark.

Camille: Can you
help me find my baby boy?

He's only six months old.

He has a birthmark on his neck.

It's in the shape of a crescent.

I hadn't noticed it before.

It's... it's very distinctive.

You can have one of your own.

Just get a tattoo.

Oh, that's it?

We were just getting to know
each other.

Get some rest, agent bellamy.

Ray!

Okay, listen,
you can't just walk in here.

And start rearranging tables.

How many people do you have?

7. 8... 10 at the most.

All right. Fine.
But you have to order.

We're gonna order.

Yeah. Soda and coffee
doesn't count.

No, we'll order.

You got to tip, too.

Okay.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Thanks. Enjoy.

Hi, elaine. Hi, jacob.

We're here to eat lunch.
Margaret: Elaine.

You're maggie's friend, right?

Lovely to meet you.

I'm maggie's grandmother.

I know.

The poor dear is beside herself.

Over what happened
to her mother.

I don't know.

What you think you saw
last night in the park,

But I assure you...
you are mistaken.

I wasn't there.

This is...
A difficult time for maggie.

She's going to need the support
of her family and friends.

I always support maggie.

Excuse me. I'll be right back
to take your order.

On second thought, jacob,

I think I'd rather eat at home.

Hey, mag.

What's wrong?

It's mom.

She's gone.

You mean... Like caleb.

Elaine said she saw margaret
in the park.

With mom last night
when she disappeared,

But when I talked to margaret
this morning,

She didn't know anything
about it.

It doesn't make sense.

C-can I... Get you some tea
or something?

I have to get back to work.
I have patients today, and I...

Maggie, no.
Maggie, take a breath.

Please.

Okay? Just sit.

It's just, like, I've got a lot
to do today, you know?

I can't... I know, honey.

I understand.

But right now, just..
What can I get you?

Tea is fine.

Okay.

Okay.

Hey, maggie.

I think a tablespoon. Mm, okay.

We're making my bad luck chili.

Here you go. Thanks.

Uh, work just called.
I have to get back.

Are you sure you're...
you're okay?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm fine.

I'm sorry.

No, it's okay.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Thank you.

Keep it down.

What's the problem?

The bathroom door is stuck.

Aah!

You're lucky it wasn't a gun.

Sorry.

You're ray's sister?

Guilty. Oh.

He, uh, never said
you were such a foxy lady.

Um... Thank you.

You joining us for
the true living meeting?

It's what we call ourselves...
the true living.

Okay.

It's a map of where the returned
are living in arcadia.

If you'd ever bother to check
out our website, you'd know.

Okay, ray, seriously?

"Returneds abducted my cat."

"returned screwed up my wi-fi."

"returneds keyed my car."

This is ridiculous.

No wonder people still believe
the government-hoax story.

It's not ridiculous.

We're just a group
of concerned citizens...

People who don't want to be
victimized by the returned.

Okay, ray.

I know that you're hurt
by what happened with dad...

No, I'm not. Not anymore.

Because I'm doing something
constructive.

The returned are just people.

I don't want you having
these meetings here anymore.

Do we have an update
on rachael braidwood?

She's still presenting
with flu-like symptoms,

Running a slight fever,
but she's holding her own.

Good. And the baby?

Oh, still normal heartbeat,
vitals.

Everything looks good.

Maggie: Good. Great. Thanks.
Dr. Langston,

We've got eight patients
out there waiting to be examined.

For signs of the virus.

Okay.

Good job.

Dr. Langston? Hmm?

You look a little pale.

Just give me
a few minutes, okay?

Frederick.

What did you do?

I know you were with barbara
last night.

What did you do to her?

If this is about what maggie's
friend thinks she saw,

She's mistaken.

You're lying.

Fred... you stop it!

You've been lying
ever since you came back.

I've been looking out for you
ever since I came back.

How dare you?

What difference
does any of this make?

She shouldn't have come back
in the first place.

What did you do to her?

Everyone's better off
without her.

You shut your mouth.

She's the reason jacob died,

The reason
this family fell apart,

And if there's one thing
I'm here to do,

It's fix this family.

Were you always like this?

After everything I did
for you...

You were a suicidal drunk
when I came back.

What the hell did barbara
ever do for you?

She gave me maggie.

Martin: Angela.

When were you gonna tell me?

When were you gonna tell me
I died in 1934?

Angela: Stop.

Please. Close the door.
Wait outside.

I only just pieced it all
together this morning.

Pieced it together?

This is a game to you?

Everything I remember
about myself, my life...

I was dead the whole time.

That's one way of looking at it.

How would you look at it?

From where I sit,
you're one lucky son of a bitch.

You got a second chance.

And a third.

You cheated death.

You have no idea how this feels.

You're right.

I don't.

The first time... 1934...
I drowned?

That's right.

There was a flood.

In arcadia?

Mm-hmm.

You were six months old.

Then you came back
in chicago, 1972.

Child welfare must have assumed
that you'd been abandoned,

And they placed you
for adoption.

Agent bellamy, until today,

You were something of a snag
in my calculations.

I believed you were the only one
who wasn't born in arcadia.

I want to meet my birth parents.

You've already met them.

The thompsons.

Mr. And mrs. Thompson?

I want to see them.

They're here
in your custody, right?

They were here.

They were among the first
to be infected with the virus.

I'm sorry, agent bellamy.

They disappeared three days ago.

What about the little girl?
Jenny?

Your sister.

She's here, and she's healthy.

Not as long as your symptoms
are suppressed.

As long as you stay
on the antiviral medication,

You're fine.

I want to see her.

I want to see her now.

Well, I-I did
an internet search on his name.

He seems legitimate.

A lot of real-estate deals
in the west...

California and arizona.

Do we really want to do this
with someone we don't know?

Margaret: Lucille's right.

This is a family business,

And I've never heard
of any addisons in arcadia.

Well, he said
he has cousins here.

And besides,
ma, not every family.

Has been here
since the dinosaurs.

Jacob, help me pick some flowers
from the garden.

No, thanks, grandma.

It wasn't a question.

Go.

I thought you agreed that
starting up the factory again.

Would be good for us.

I mean, I know you want it
to stay in the family.

We all do, but this is our
future that I'm planning, loo...

Yours and mine and jacob's.

And if this brian addison...

If he can help us
make that happen,

I just don't
want to miss that chance.

Well, I suppose
it can't do any harm.

To hear what he has to say.

Could be a great opportunity.

If this is what you really want,

You know I'm on your side.

Yeah. Good.

I remember you.

From before, when we could be
outside back in arcadia.

That's right.

How do you like it here?

Mama and daddy wanted to leave
before they...

You know...
Before they went away.

They were sick, jenny.

The people here didn't
want you to be sick, too.

Neither did your parents.

They're not coming back,
are they?

I don't think so. No.

That's what I told debbie.

She didn't believe me.

She thinks her daddy's
coming back, but...

He's not, either.

Look, jenny.

I know this place is not home,
but you'll be safe here.

I don't want to stay here.

I know.

It's only for a little while.

I'm gonna look after you.

As soon as it's safe for you,

I want to bring you back
to arcadia with me.

Would you like that?

That's you.

That's my whole family.

That's my mama, that's my daddy,

And that's my baby brother.

Baby brother.

His name is robert.

I call him robbie.

It's for me?

Thank you.

You promise?

You'll come back?

I promise.

I promise...
everything is gonna be okay.

Why do grownups lie?

They don't.

Well, not all the time, anyway.

Why do you ask?

Did somebody lie to you?

No. N-no. Just asking.

Well, sometimes telling a lie.

Is kinder than the truth.

And sometimes grownups lie.

To protect
another person's feelings.

Oh, so you mean like, um,
telling someone.

You like their new haircut.

When really
it makes them look stupid?

Exactly.

Now, that's just a sugar lie.

That's what my mom
used to call them.

Okay. Upstairs.
Brush your teeth.

I'll be up soon.

Hey, sheriff.

Your mom came in today.

I get the feeling
I'm not her favorite person.

She told me I didn't see her
with barbara, but...

I really thought that I did.

No. It's okay.

Don't worry. I believe you.

I'm sorry about barbara.

Thank you.

You know, lately,
I've been feeling like

I live in this space.

Between what's real
and what's possible.

I know how you feel.

I thought I understood
what it must have been like.

For you
when your dad disappeared.

Now I know.

I've been thinking, though.
Maybe ray was right all along.

He never believed it.

He never believed
he was who he said he was.

I've been thinking
maybe he was right.

I used to think that.

Used to?

Yeah.

The more time I spend with them,

The more I realize.

They're exactly
who they say they are.

I'll have a coffee.

Congratulations, agent bellamy.

Your observation period is over.

Terrific.
You're gonna spring me?

Take these with you.

Remember that you need
to inject yourself.

With one full ampul
of medication every 12 hours.

As long as you do that,

You should remain symptom free
and you won't be contagious.

There's only 20 ampuls here.

That's just a 10-day supply.

That's right.

I'm gonna need more than that.

I don't have any more
to give you.

All that airplane crap
in your office...

What's that about?

Nothing.

It's just a hobby of mine.

Plane crashes are your hobby?

That's right.

And they hired you for that?

They hired me for my ability
to predict things.

That many people think
aren't subject to prediction.

Are you saying you can predict
things about the returned?

When it will happen again,
how many will come,

How long
before they'll disappear.

Everything in nature
follows a pattern.

And is therefore subject
to prediction.

How do you define nature?

Definitions change,
but numbers are perfect.

Numbers don't lie.

You really don't know anything,
do you?

We will.

I'll be back to pick up jenny
as soon as I can.

I understand.

So, I'm just allowed
to walk out the front door?

You know better than that.

Certain procedures
need to be followed.

Come on.
Is that really necessary?

Not anymore.

Is there something
you want to ask me?

Well, go ahead.

Nothing's off limits between us.

What happened to aunt barbara?

It was time for her to go away.

Is... is it because
of what happened.

When she came to dinner?

Was it my fault?

No, jacob.

It was sweet of you
to invite her.

It was her time,
and she knew it.

She just needed someone
to show her how.

Is that why you went to see her
in the park?

I had to lie about it.

People who aren't like us
wouldn't understand.

Am I gonna have to go away
one day?

One day... We both will.

It's nothing for you
to worry about, jacob.

When the time comes,
I'll be here to help.

Here's mom to tuck you in.

What were you and grandma
talking about?

Nothing.

Hmm.

I know.

I'm sorry.

I went to the government.
I needed answers.

I'm sorry about your mom.

They sent me back
with medication.

A vaccine?

No, it suppresses the symptoms.

And delays the progress
of the virus.

Okay. At least it's something.

The thing is
it's difficult to make.

And there's a limited supply.

How much did they give you?

Not enough.

Each dose lasts 12 hours.

I want you to have it,

To be in charge
of distributing it.

Okay.

Thanks.

Oh.

I was about to give
brian addison a call.

Have you noticed how much time

Jacob is spending with margaret?

It's amazing, isn't it?

I mean, it's just like.

They picked up
right where they left off.

I always imagined
that they'd have been close.

If things had been different.

Yeah. It's nice.

Sometimes I wonder about
the ideas she puts in his head.

Well,
you can't take her seriously.

That's just ma being ma.

Well, you should make the phone
call before it gets too late.

Okay.

That's great. Great.

Look forward to it.
See you then.

That was henry langston,
grandpa.

What did he say?

Wants to meet, Talk
about the factory.

What did I tell you?

The first mention of money.

And those langstons are like
ants on a lollipop.
