Revolution (2012–2014): Season 1, Episode 16 - The Love Boat - full transcript
With Tom Neville now a Georgia Federation officer and in charge of their troops hem Miles, Charlie and Nora head into Monroe Republic territory by boat to capture Dr. Stephen Camp who is developing an anthrax weapon for Monroe. They lift him easily and get him aboard the boat for the return trip. It comes out that he hasn't been working voluntarily as Monroe has been holding his family hostage. Not to worry they tell him: while Miles, Charlie and Nora were kidnapping him, Neville was out snatching his family and as long as he works for them, his family will be safe. Charlie and Nora refuse to accept kidnapping as part of the fight against Monroe.
Previously on Revolution:
I've never left the Monroe Republic.
Georgia Federation. Whole different world.
- Madame President.
- I want you and your rebels...
...to hit Monroe from the inside.
Open up a second front.
- Why would you go to the Tower?
- We need to turn the power back on.
This will tell you everything
you need to know.
Dr. Warren's little diary
making any sense?
It's gonna take a while to translate.
Come on out!
Just you, me and Emma.
You wanna see Miles?
No, not Miles!
My son. Your son.
Where is he?
Major Neville and his wife
fled the city last night.
- Why would he do that?
- Our spies have spotted his son, Jason.
- His son's dead.
- He's with the rebels now.
Wonder what else
he's been lying about.
Tom.
I hope you're ready
to get back into action.
No! No! No!
I gotta say, Pete...
...I thought I trained
you better than this.
You let that guy capture you?
What am I supposed to do with you?
You could let me go.
So I should show you mercy.
That what Monroe's doing?
Is he showing me mercy?
No.
Monroe is a rabid dog.
And he's only getting worse.
So I'm gonna put him down...
...and God help anybody
who gets in my way.
Now, I'm gonna ask you
one last time, Pete.
You gonna tell me what you know...
...or are you in my way too?
I'm not a traitor.
Like you said...
...you trained me better than that.
Bag or no bag?
No bag.
Sir.
Georgian reinforcements are here.
What reinforcements?
Mine.
Oh.
Easy there, Tex.
This is a letter...
...I'm reaching for.
- What is it?
- It's from President Foster.
Check the seal. It's legit.
I, uh, hate to see your lips move
while you read, so I'll paraphrase.
I am now a commissioned officer
of the Georgia Federation.
You gotta be kidding me.
Now we're partners, Miles.
Tom, I'm gonna kill you.
Foster won't like it.
Yeah, well, I don't take orders from her.
I certainly don't take them from you.
True. But she has provided
your adorable rebel cause...
...with a steady stream of men and guns.
If you don't work with me,
I'll take it all back.
And you can go back
to being the general of my nuts.
Besides...
...we've got an important job to do.
Nothing's that important.
Monroe is weaponizing anthrax.
Oh, do I have your attention now?
One Dr. Ethan Camp.
He's in charge of the program.
They can't make it without him.
So wanna go get him?
Come on, Neville?
After everything he's done to us,
we should shoot the son of a bitch.
Take it easy.
She's right. Even if Neville doesn't screw
us over, even if we get this Dr. Camp...
- ...what are we gonna do with him?
- Get him to Georgia.
So President Foster
can get her hands on the guy?
Start making her own anthrax?
If it's gonna help us stop Monroe, yes.
And since when
did this become a democracy, hmm?
You two, get in line or stay here.
Ladies.
After you.
Just couldn't keep away, could you?
My name is Captain Richard Lucas
of the Georgian navy...
...and this is my steamboat.
It is my job to get you
in and out of Parkersburg...
...and back over the border alive.
Now, as far as anyone knows,
this is a fishing vessel...
...so if you just keep your heads down
and do whatever the hell I tell you...
...we'll get along just fine.
Look, even if you had anything
I want, which you don't, we're not trading.
Please. We haven't eaten in four days.
We'll take anything.
Weather's cold, food's scarce.
If I was you, I'd head south.
We can't.
We have to go west.
Folks, I feel for you, I do.
But any food I give you
is food I can't give my kids.
So I'm sorry, but we're done.
Now, go on, get out of here.
Look, I know we've had our issues...
...but we're on the same side.
How about we call a truce?
You forget, I know you, Dad.
I get why you're with Georgia now.
Why's that?
You don't care what side you're on
as long as they kiss your ass.
I'm with Georgia
because you are a traitor.
Your mother and I had to escape
in the night like criminals.
She got hypothermia...
...almost died because of you.
You selfish little prick.
This is what we had to do to survive.
Is that okay with you?
What are you saying, Mr. Flynn?
I'm only asking you
to consider the bigger picture.
Your methods have been a tiny bit...
severe lately.
I can't imagine why I'm so upset.
The goal is to stop the insurgents,
not radicalize more of them.
Are the rebels pulling their punches?
Or Georgia?
We have to do whatever it takes.
If that means anthrax or one of these
new toys you've been building, so be it.
Right, because that'll show Matheson.
Oh, Mr. Flynn, heh.
You're my IT guy.
If you say something like that again,
I'm gonna rip your throat out.
Is that clear?
We dock in 10. And then you're on.
We're on? You're not coming?
Not my style.
We're better off without him.
No! No! No!
Now, that wasn't so hard, was it?
Whoa.
I think you took something of ours.
What are you talking about?
Lady, lying's only gonna make it worse.
We're sorry, we're just hungry.
Stealing food means
one of my own starves.
On your knees.
Wait, what?
This is hard country. No matter the crime,
there's only one punishment.
- Come on, man.
- I said, on your knees.
Since when do you have a gun?
Since Miles gave it to me.
Come on. They're gonna be coming.
Let's go.
Rachel!
What happened? Let me see.
It's okay.
Last year or two...
...Sebastian's been recruiting them
younger and dumber.
So may I say...
...it is a pleasure working
with a true professional again.
We make a hell of a team.
Sir.
Doc's waking up.
Mazel tov, doc.
You have been liberated
by the Georgia Federation.
Please let me go.
No can do.
You have been making
some nasty bugs for Monroe.
And in a world short of penicillin?
He's keeping my family
under guard 24/7.
- I wouldn't worry.
- You don't understand.
As soon as they realize I'm gone,
they're gonna kill my wife. My daughter.
Monroe doesn't have your family anymore.
We do.
While I was freeing you...
...he was freeing them.
- Aah!
- You're coming with us.
You're welcome, by the way.
- Where are they?
- They're safe.
On another boat.
All right, when can I see them?
You can't.
What do you mean? I don't understand.
If you're cooperative...
...maybe we'll set up a visit
down the road.
Cooperative?
After you do the important work for Georgia
that you've been doing for Monroe.
Look, I'm begging, let my family go.
We'll disappear.
We'll go to Texas.
You're gonna do exactly what we say...
...or you're never gonna see
your family again, you understand?
You knew about this the whole time.
Okay, easy, easy, easy, shh.
So we kidnap people now?
That's what we do?
We don't have a choice.
I'm leaving.
Soon as we get to shore,
I'm transferring to another unit.
If that's what you want.
When you found me...
...asked me to help you find Danny...
...I came because I thought you changed.
Anyway...
...I was wrong.
- Please stop. Stop.
- I'm sorry. I've never done this before.
- Please don't!
- Okay.
Oh, oh, uh, okay, okay, okay.
I think I got it put back in, uh...
I'm gonna splint it now.
Don't bother.
They're gonna be coming.
You need to leave.
- You need to get out now.
- Rachel, no.
Look at my leg. Look at it, I'm already dead.
We both know that. Go.
You need to take the book. No.
You need to take Warren's journal...
- ...to the Tower.
- Rachel, stop.
- There's something that I need to tell you.
- Just stop. I'm not leaving you.
You wouldn't leave me.
I would leave you.
This is more important.
Please, Rachel, I...
- I don't wanna do this alone.
- You would rather die here with me...
...than be left alone?
You walked out on your wife,
why is it so hard to leave me?
You're just saying all of this to try to
make me wanna leave and it's not gonna work.
I'm not going anywhere.
Please.
Please.
I brought you some water.
Why are you doing this?
This is not me.
How is it not you?
Look...
...my daughter's name is Bonnie.
She's just 11.
She's gotta be so scared.
Please.
- What is that? No! No! No!
- Shh, shh, shh.
Routine inspection.
Hopefully.
We gotta get below deck.
No sudden moves. Just stay cool.
What are you doing?
Shut up and get in.
Got a real Cadillac here.
Don't see steamboats too much
anymore.
Our papers should be in order.
You don't mind if we look around?
Just a formality?
Be my guest.
- Unh.
- What are you doing?
They're not taking him back alive.
If Georgia can't have him, no one can.
Shh.
Well, uh...
...I'm afraid my associate found this.
Now, you know ordnance are illegal.
What are we gonna do about it?
Look, if there's any way
we can let this slide...
Don't let it happen again.
Have a nice day.
Major, we're clear.
Get over there.
Little bitch.
You put a gun to my head?
You ever touch her again,
I will snap your pencil neck.
You get me?
- Where's your friend?
- Please.
No.
You Okay?
Yeah.
This has gone way too far,
you know that, right?
Come on, don't...
Don't you start in on me too.
Neville almost killed the guy.
- We gotta cut him loose.
- No.
- He could end up back with Monroe.
- Miles.
You're holding a gun
against his daughter's head...
...so you can blackmail him
into making a disease.
How is this any different
than what Monroe did to my mom?
Well, it's not.
It's not any different.
You think I wanna be doing this, Charlie?
Ran as far away as I could.
Tried to drink myself to death
so I wouldn't have to be this guy again.
But this is...
- This is war.
- No. Don't give me that.
I get what war is.
There are a lot of things
I'm willing to do to win. Not this.
Well, there's nothing Monroe won't do!
Nothing!
He's coming for me, personally.
Look what he did, Charlie.
To our family.
Look what he did to my town, to...
Look what he did to Emma.
I don't know, you tell me, Charlie.
What choice do I have?
Let these people go, Miles.
No.
Charlie.
Charlie, open this door.
Open the door!
Damn it, Charlie, open this door!
- So is Miles gonna help us?
- No.
Okay, let's go.
Gentlemen, change of plans.
Hey!
Now, where's Dr. Camp's family?
Captain. Major Neville's boat,
dead in the water, sir. No one aboard.
All right, let's check it out.
Hey, guys.
Move back.
Move.
Daddy!
We gotta hurry.
Okay. Stay here.
- Thank you.
- We're not out of the woods yet.
We're gonna take this boat to Dunbar,
20 miles up. I got friends there.
- They're gonna help you disappear.
- Okay.
Give me the gun, boy.
Give it to me.
Drop your weapon.
Let's go.
Move.
I swear to Christ Almighty,
I will never understand...
...how my own flesh and blood
could turn against me the way you have.
Isn't it obvious?
I hate you.
I have to say...
...you are the most irritable
pain in the ass I have ever known.
- I told you not to touch her again.
- Unh!
Uh-uh.
Shoot them all.
Sir, are you sure?
Now.
You found Matheson. Why didn't you
take him when you had the chance?
Think I'm gonna get into a straight fight
with Miles Matheson?
Keep firing!
Thanks, Miles.
No. Thank you.
Hey, Torn, you look upset.
Go to hell, Miles.
How'd you get away?
It cost me all my men to do it.
Where's Dr. Camp?
Oh, he's gone.
I Will find him.
You know I will.
No, you won't.
Wanna know why?
Because I'm smarter than you are.
He's not gonna work for Monroe
or for Foster.
Fine.
I'll take all the troops back to Georgia.
Yeah, I kind of doubt that too.
See, Tom, I'm winning.
More battles all the time.
And at the end of the day...
...what do you think Foster
cares more about...
...your pride or a win?
Hey.
You still leaving?
You want to hear a secret?
Okay.
You're not such a bad guy, Miles.
Don't worry. I won't tell.
About what I said...
It's okay.
You didn't mean it.
I meant some of it.
- You have to go.
- Rachel, enough.
Look. There is no one who wanted
to turn the power back on more than me.
- You don't understand.
- But you know what?
I'm beginning to think that maybe
there are some things...
...that are a bit more important than that.
You don't understand. What's important
is that you go to the Tower.
You, Aaron.
What does that mean?
Dr. Warren's journal
is everything about the Tower.
It's like a spell book.
Open it. Page 74.
I don't understand this, either.
I didn't want to freak you out.
This is me.
Rachel, why am I in this book?
What do I have to do with any of this?
Elevator's up.
It's about time.
They can get us down to Level 12?
You're gonna wait here.
And I'm gonna take a look.
Randall wouldn't want you down there.
Yeah, well, he isn't here, is he?
Why'd it stop, Grace?
I'm not in the mood for games.
I've never left the Monroe Republic.
Georgia Federation. Whole different world.
- Madame President.
- I want you and your rebels...
...to hit Monroe from the inside.
Open up a second front.
- Why would you go to the Tower?
- We need to turn the power back on.
This will tell you everything
you need to know.
Dr. Warren's little diary
making any sense?
It's gonna take a while to translate.
Come on out!
Just you, me and Emma.
You wanna see Miles?
No, not Miles!
My son. Your son.
Where is he?
Major Neville and his wife
fled the city last night.
- Why would he do that?
- Our spies have spotted his son, Jason.
- His son's dead.
- He's with the rebels now.
Wonder what else
he's been lying about.
Tom.
I hope you're ready
to get back into action.
No! No! No!
I gotta say, Pete...
...I thought I trained

Routine inspection.
Hopefully.
We gotta get below deck.
No sudden moves. Just stay cool.
What are you doing?
Shut up and get in.
Got a real Cadillac here.
Don't see steamboats too much

...how my own flesh and blood
could turn against me the way you have.
Isn't it obvious?
I hate you.
I have to say...
...you are the most irritable
pain in the ass I have ever known.
- I told you not to touch her again.
- Unh!
Uh-uh.
Shoot them all.
Sir, are you sure?
Now.
You found Matheson. Why didn't you
take him when you had the chance?
Think I'm gonna get into a straight fight
with Miles Matheson?
Keep firing!
Thanks, Miles.
No. Thank you.
Hey, Torn, you look upset.
Go to hell, Miles.
How'd you get away?
It cost me all my men to do it.
Where's Dr. Camp?
Oh, he's gone.
I Will find him.
You know I will.
No, you won't.
Wanna know why?
Because I'm smarter than you are.
He's not gonna work for Monroe
or for Foster.
Fine.
I'll take all the troops back to Georgia.
Yeah, I kind of doubt that too.
See, Tom, I'm winning.
More battles all the time.
And at the end of the day...
...what do you think Foster
cares more about...
...your pride or a win?
Hey.
You still leaving?
You want to hear a secret?
Okay.
You're not such a bad guy, Miles.
Don't worry. I won't tell.
About what I said...
It's okay.
You didn't mean it.
I meant some of it.
- You have to go.
- Rachel, enough.
Look. There is no one who wanted
to turn the power back on more than me.
- You don't understand.
- But you know what?
I'm beginning to think that maybe
there are some things...
...that are a bit more important than that.
You don't understand. What's important
is that you go to the Tower.
You, Aaron.
What does that mean?
Dr. Warren's journal
is everything about the Tower.
It's like a spell book.
Open it. Page 74.
I don't understand this, either.
I didn't want to freak you out.
This is me.
Rachel, why am I in this book?
What do I have to do with any of this?
Elevator's up.
It's about time.
They can get us down to Level 12?
You're gonna wait here.
And I'm gonna take a look.
Randall wouldn't want you down there.
Yeah, well, he isn't here, is he?
Why'd it stop, Grace?
I'm not in the mood for games.
