Sanctuary (2008–2011): Season 2, Episode 12 - Kali: Part I - full transcript

Rheka, you must go.

I will do what I have to.
Come back and retrieve it later.

It will speak.

There is no other choice.

This is my duty.

Now, please.

This way.

You led us on a merry dance,
didn't you, huh?

- Crap.
- What is it?

It's not in him anymore, is it?
Look at him.

Where'd you put it?



He's not going to answer.

When the bug leaves the body,
you die.

It's part of the deal, and it's been
in him for a long, long time.

Help him out, will you?

Okay, people, moving on.
Spread out.

He must have passed the bug
on to somebody.

Wait.

- The old lady he was running with.
- Find her.

The Team Projet-SG

presents:

Sanctuary - Season 2 Episodes 12-13
Kali (v. 1.00)

Timing by: Arrow,
nitrogenc, Salomon

Onryuji-san, what happened?

Suki's never done
anything like this before.



- Suki?
- Giant lizard creature.

She's usually so docile.

He can't understand it.

No one was hurt, but there was panic.
People were running through the streets.

- It's just like in the movie.
- No.

Nothing like a movie.

Where is she?

She's been sedated offshore

while we build an enclosure
on one of our islands.

Last night she was fine,

this morning all of a sudden,

it's like a switch was turned on.

A giant lizard creature loose in Tokyo.
How we going to spin this?

- So?
- It looks like our spin is holding up.

Anyone who saw Suki now thinks it's part
of some big Hollywood blockbuster

shooting down by the harbor.

Good. I'm getting pressure
from New York to keep this story quiet.

Our new head of house there,
Terrance Wexford,

is very keen on making his mark.

You're under pressure?
What's that about?

Nothing.
Everything's fine.

I know you, okay?
I know when something's up.

I promise you,
when the time comes,

you will be the person
that I talk to, all right?

Sorry to bother you, doc.
Got some breaking news out of London.

- What is it?
- I'm patching through a video now.

What is that?

Dear God.

London calling.

We caught her,

but as you can see,

she's still a little riled up.

We just came back from Tokyo.

They had a similar problem
with Suki.

What happened?

She went psycho, broke out
of her enclosure for no apparent reason.

Now, I've received dispatches
from Sydney, Rio, and Lagos.

All of them are reporting
similar incidents.

In each case, one or two abnormals
suddenly started acting up,

out of the blue, no warning.

- What is causing this?
- No idea,

but we'd better figure it out,
and quickly.

So far we've been lucky
no one's been seriously hurt,

but that won't be the case forever.

It could be a virus,
like Lazarus last year.

Maybe, but this is
a very select group of abnormals,

and the behavior response
is totally different.

Lazarus triggered violence.

This, whatever it is,
is causing outright fear.

- A change in atmosphere?
- No way.

Our satellite feeds
would have detected something.

Besides, the Peruvian Seppulus

is incredibly sensitive
to these kind of fluctuations,

and yet Lima's reported no problems.

Which leaves us with sound.
Something sub-sonic?

Doubtful. Pterodactyls have
a high tolerance for that.

Can I say that arguing over the cause
at this point in time is useless.

We need to initiate
an immediate global alert.

We're not there yet, Terrance.

Only a handful of abnormals
have been affected so far.

Almost causing a panic
in London and Tokyo.

- Why risk further exposure?
- Dr. Magnus...

I've just received a report.

A giant sand ray has been found
in the desert

a hundred kilometers east of Minya,

dead.

Surfaced inexplicably.

This is the middle
of its hibernation cycle.

All right, everyone,
please, let's not panic.

There has to be a reason.

We just have to remain vigilant
until we can figure out what it is.

In the meantime,
survey your sentient abnormals,

and keep tabs on the rest.

Report any changes in behavior
to Declan immediately.

Dr. Magnus, I must insist...

That's all. Thank you.

- I'm sorry, Dr. Magnus?
- Yes, Ravi, what is it?

I'm not sure if this falls
under our purview,

but I thought
it was worth mentioning.

A man was found
shot dead in Dharavi.

He had the mark of Kali
on his left leg.

Yeah, it's an ancient cult
dating back 5,000 years.

Its followers were rumored
to be able to foretell disaster.

- So they're abnormals?
- We've no idea.

We've never actually
made contact with them.

I appreciate it, Ravi.
Thank you.

I'll be in touch.

So, what do you think?
You think this Kali thing ties in?

I've no idea.
This situation's so fractured,

anything, no matter
how insignificant, could be a factor.

What?

You want me to go to Mumbai?

I have to stay here
and manage this situation.

You mean manage Wexford.

- You picked up on that, did you?
- Yeah, just a little.

Take Kate with you to Mumbai.
It'll be fun.

"We're going on a trip", he says.

"It'll be fun!", he says.

"Please stop talking
for two minutes", he says.

I have been on a plane for 15 hours.
I am entitled to a little complaining.

Try flying through Tokyo
and London first, and then we'll talk.

Dr. Zimmerman, Miss Freelander.

Namaste.

I am Dr. Ganapathiraman.

Hi, Dr...

Doctor.
I'm Will.

- Then you must call me Ravi.
- Thank God.

Kate.

Pavitar.

"Pure".

No, just Kate.

I have rooms ready
if you need to rest.

- Absolutely...
- No, actually, we're fine.

- Why don't we just get started?
- Moving fast in Mumbai?

- That's a bad idea.
- What are we, here on vacation?

Bring on the heat.

Female.
You can tell by the markings.

Young, too.

Maybe 60, 70 years old?

Damn, there aren't
that many of these left.

I've arranged
for a helicopter transport to Cairo.

We should do a biopsy
on the wings, tail, and cephalic lobe,

send them to london.

Declan can do a full work-up,
see if there's any link

to the other abnormals.

Any chance we can get
access to the victim?

We're in good with the authorities.

They've given us the crime scene,
and I've arranged with the coroner

to "borrow" the body
for a window of time.

Good.

Should be delivered to the Sanctuary
this afternoon.

- The cops have anything yet?
- Still haven't id'd the body.

They think this was just
another drug deal gone bad.

I don't think so.

Talk to me, William.

The spatter angle seems very long.

Do you think slum gangbangers
carry that heavy a caliber?

Doubtful.
Cheaper the gun, smaller the bullet.

I'm thinking...

military issue.

These are new treads.
It's a recent acquisition.

Yeah, those kicks cost.

Some dudes with expensive boots

and even more expensive guns
were here.

So not a local job, then.

I'm saying no.

Not unless the locals buy their guns
direct from the manufacturer.

Armor-piercing 9 mil.

Still jagged.

Russian.

Pricey.

You thought I was just a token Indian,
didn't you?

Okay, so, all of this points

to a professional,
if not military-style hit.

Why?

- Who is this guy?
- What did they want from him?

Or this cult he belonged to?

Hey, Ravi, what's this?

A shrine to the goddess Durga.

They're fairly common.

So the witnesses say
that the victim was being chased,

but he had a good head start.

There's lots of ways out of this alley.
Why did he stop here?

'Cause he was headed this way?

What do you make of this?

Nice call.

Will Z. with the score.

You guys are good.

Is that supposed to be there?

Let's get this
back to the Sanctuary.

Helicopter's a half an hour out.

Apparently, they had some problems
with navigations.

That's all right. It's giving me
a chance to study these samples.

What do you make of this?

Evidence of nociception.

Exactly.
This creature was in pain.

Which explains the fear reaction,
but what caused it?

I still don't know.

I have to compare results
with Declan when I get back to London.

Pili?

You worked with Terrance Wexford
in Berlin, right?

How do you think
he's enjoying his new post?

I think he's enjoying
the authority of it immensely.

I see.

Thank you, Pili.

You think this was
hidden by the dead guy?

Or someone else.
Or it means nothing.

We'll run some scans,
see what turns up.

Indian military has no record
of any personnel

operating
during the time of the murder.

So we're looking for career mercenaries,
ex-military.

I'll send out a few emails,

see if any K&R
or Blackwater guys were in town.

No trace on the casing we found?

None, but we do have
an ID on the victim,

one Ajay Paveljit.

No immediate family.
No fixed address.

The body's downstairs.
We're ready to start the autopsy.

I am... jetlagged.

I think I better turn in,
but why don't you do the autopsy,

and we'll just go over
the results tomorrow?

- I thought he was a doctor.
- He is,

just not the kind
that likes autopsies.

Wake up!

Don't make me come in there.

No, seriously,
don't make me come in there.

Next time you should actually
try sleeping.

I don't know...

I guess it's the 22 time zones
in two days.

Snap out of it.

Ravi's downstairs.
He's got something.

All right, I'll be down in a minute.

Tests on the statue came back clean.

There's nothing unusual about it,
however...

I completed the autopsy
on Mr. Paveljit.

According to his DNA scan,
he's human,

so imagine my surprise
when I examined his internal organs

and found evidence
that he was over 200 years old.

What?

But his DNA is normal?

- Sure?
- Absolutely.

He's 100% human.

I ran the test
three times to be sure.

Crafty son of a bitch.

Stares down the barrel of a gun

not 20 feet away
from where he hid the bloody thing.

That's devotion.

So where is it now?

Often, that's a good question.

Any sign of the old woman,
or the statue? No?

This one said he saw someone
take the statue, a man.

Was he a white man like me?

Competition.

Magnus's people.

It would be so crappy

if they got to the bug before us.

Lads, this just got more difficult.

- How was Egypt?
- Tiring,

and what's the other word
I'm looking for? Yes, sandy.

- What's been happening here?
- You'll be pleased to hear

that most of the affected abnormals
have calmed down substantially.

Whatever was causing the flare-up
seems to have dissipated somewhat.

That's a relief.

These are the locations
where the events took place.

London, Tokyo, Sydney,
Rio, Lagos, Cairo.

There doesn't appear
to be a common link.

No pattern that I can discern.

You're saying all these places
were affected at the same time?

Roughly, why?

If it was some kind of trigger,
it would have to be very strong

and moving very quickly.

- An EM pulse of some kind.
- Maybe.

That doesn't align
with the symptoms we're seeing.

Exactly. None of the abnormals
we're dealing with

are usually affected by EM spikes.

I don't know anything powerful enough
to send a pulse worldwide like that.

Still, I'll have Henry
go over the satellite data.

There must be
something we're missing.

You were right.

Chinese weather satellite caught a trace
of a unique energy signature

right around the time
the incidents began,

but I followed it to this.

It's an EM pulse originating in Mumbai,
right in the heart of Dharavi.

- Dear God.
- That's pretty much what I said.

What does it mean?

That this is somehow connected
to the cult of Kali.

And voila.
Drink this.

Thanks.

I don't know what's wrong with me.
I feel like I'm dying or something.

Maybe it's something you ate.

The first time I was here,
I had a samosa off the street cart.

I barfed for, like,
two days straight...

Okay, thank you.
That's great.

Maybe you should
go back and lie down.

- Yeah, maybe that's a good idea.
- Do you want me to come with you?

No, thanks, I'm fine.

Why don't you just keep
asking about the cult?

You sure you're okay?

Yeah, I think I just need to sleep.

Quickly!
They're coming!

They must not find him.

- You lost him?
- No, he wasn't feeling well,

so he headed back
to the Sanctuary early.

- Did you check the hospitals?
- Nobody fits his description.

- What about his cell phone?
- We tracked it using the GPS.

Found it in a ditch.

I've organized a search.
We have people going door-to-door.

Don't worry, we'll find him.

Show me this statue you found.

He's out there,
which means I am too.

We just found out, sir.
She only landed here 90 minutes ago.

Bribe an official.
Get a passenger manifest.

You can't just come to me and say,
"guess what, she's suddenly in town."

Sir, she flies a private charter
with a bogus flight plan.

- There's no way we could have known...
- Enough, enough.

I mean, this isn't a game.

It's a one-shot,
once-in-a-lifetime thing.

Some mooks from the local Sanctuary,
one thing.

Helen Magnus?

She's another,

and it means if we screw up,
even marginally,

we're going to get pinched,

or die,

or worse.

No more surprises.

It commemorates
the ceremony of acceptance.

You recognize it?

From a conference in Brazil
about 40 years ago.

Markings are similar, signifying a cult
member's initiation as a doot.

"Doot?" I don't know that word.

Ancient Urdu dialect
meaning "herald"

or "guardian",
or in some translations, "prophet".

It was believed that the doots
could foretell disaster...

Earthquakes, tsunamis,
and the like...

That the advance warning gave
the other members a chance to escape.

Seems like someone with that ability
would be worth more alive than dead.

Definitely.

- You're sure there was nothing inside?
- They're completely solid.

Scans for surface residue
are still pending.

The pattern inside here changes.

The design loses symmetry.

Something's missing.

Durga,

where have you been?

I've been looking for you.

I tried to call,

but you didn't answer.

What's wrong?

Are you sick?

What's happened to you?

Why won't you answer me?

Will he survive?

- I don't believe it.
- What?

Tests show surface residue on the statue
came from a Makri.

- I'm not familiar with that.
- You wouldn't be.

It's an incredibly rare
species of abnormal spider

that requires a warm-blooded host
to survive. I thought they were extinct.

Something that rare
would be very valuable...

This isn't about money.

This is about something far worse.

The Makri is a subspecies off-shoot
of a marine-dwelling abnormal

known as Gephallis Bertallosso.

It's a massive arachnid creature
capable of manipulating tectonic plates

via focused magnetic resonance.

You're talking about Big Bertha.

- The one who makes the earth move.
- And the waters rise.

The Makri is
its tiny genetic cousin.

They may well have a link,
a chemical, or even psychic bond

that allows the host
a deeper connection to Big Bertha.

So if anyone finds this Makri...

They could potentially use it

to locate the most powerful
abnormal on earth.

Wait, but Big Bertha is dead.
You killed her four years ago, yes?

We all know that.

Dr. Magnus?

Not exactly.

Bertha is alive.

You kept her alive
and lied about it?

Historically, creatures
as powerful as Big Bertha

have a symbiotic relationship
with other life forms on this planet.

I felt that euthanizing her
would create far greater problems...

Tidal patterns would be altered,
undersea ecological systems

completely destroyed,
massive geological shifts.

The best course of action
was to keep her secure and under watch.

Killing her posed far greater risks
than keeping her alive.

Where is she?

A specialized containment field
at the bottom of the Indian ocean.

Which you kept hidden...

It was necessary!

To keep her
and the rest of the world safe.

It was my prerogative, Ravi.

My choice.

Fine.

We need to dispatch ships
immediately,

- increase security to the entire area.
- Of course.

I'll get Henry on it.
He'll coordinate,

but we need to find Will.

If the Makri behaves
the way I believe it does,

then it could well be a doorway
into finding Bertha's location,

which is what the mercenaries were after
when they killed Mr. Paveljit.

- What happened to me?
- You went away for a while,

but now you're back.

- Why did I get sick?
- Because of the Makri,

the ancient spider inside you.

The former host, Ajay,
was being chased by bad men.

He hid the Makri
in the shrine of Durga.

You found it.

You were not supposed to.

- But why did it...
- The Makri needs a host.

When it doesn't have one,

it speaks for all the world to hear.

It chose you...

Which is a great honor.

- I should get back to the Sanctuary.
- The streets are not safe.

For that matter,

the Sanctuary may not be either.

You must stay hidden
until you get proper training.

Trained?

To become a suitable host.

It is in the blood of my people
to withstand the trials of the Makri.

You are strong,

but you are far from being ready.

News travels fast.

Terrance.

You kept Bertha alive
after all we discussed.

- It was necessary.
- And I appreciate your opinion,

but things have
changed considerably.

- Do you have any leads?
- Currently, we're at a disadvantage,

but Bertha is secure, I assure you.

And let's hope she stays that way.

- You're certain this Makri is linked?
- We are now.

Let me come to Mumbai, help you
analyze everything you've learned.

You don't need to do that. Besides,
you've got your hands full in New York.

You have my complete support,

you always have,

but people are questioning
your judgment.

I can handle it.

I hope so.

What is the Makri?

It's what gives you your power.

My power?

To be a doot,

a prophet.

It is through you that the destroyer
of the world communicates with us.

Kali...

She is extremely powerful.

Without the Makri
to help us speak to her,

we'll be as helpless
as leaves in the wind.

That's the woman of my visions.

That's Kali.

You're seeing her already?

Then your connection
must be very strong.

What are we going to do?

Run and hide.
Go, go, go, go, go.

Check in there.

We've got search ships
moving into the area now.

We should be at Bertha's coordinates
in six hours or less.

Good. I want you on a plane immediately
with the weapon.

We'll monitor her sensors from here.

About that.

Just so you know,
I went over the sensor logs.

You know how she's supposedly
been asleep this whole time?

Guess what happened
at roughly the same time

as the Mumbai EM pulse?

She responded to
the call of the Makri.

She emitted a magnetic burst
so low in frequency

that the sensors didn't detect it
until I did a full scan,

but it was powerful enough to briefly
alter the Earth's magnetic field.

Magnetic North

was shifted by one hundred thousandth
of a degree.

Navigation instruments
all over the world were affected.

Doc, that is power.

Let's go, come on.
Let's go.

Who said good things
don't happen to good people.

Dr. Will Zimmerman?

And you...

I've been looking for you for years.

If I'm not mistaken, you're the last
surviving member of the Cult of Kali.

You're too old to withstand it,
so the spider's got to be in him.

Please, you must not do this.

Are you kidding?

Is she kidding?
Of course I must.

This is huge!

I was sure your boss
was going to find you before I did,

so I think this is kismet.

Karma.

Fate.

All that stuff.

Get that set up.

Who are you?

Me?

Just a guy...

With lots of money,

and people.

I like to get my hands on

rare stuff, you know?

Why, did you think
I was someone a bit cooler?

An abnormal?

Don't I wish it.

But you just wait.

What are you...

What are you going to do to me?

You mean
you haven't worked it out yet?

So you know that little thing
inside of you?

It's like a dial-an-earthquake

in a box.

You see, you are...

psychically connected to...

Kali.

I was going to say Big Bertha,
but sure.

Big Bertha?

Kali...

One and the same.
I know, I know,

you thought she was dead.
So did everybody

thanks to Sheriff Magnus,

but she's still alive and kicking,

and whoever has that bug
inside of them...

They control her.

So, my friend here is going to hit you
with a low-frequency magnetic

pulse,
and I'm not going to lie to you,

that little thing
is not going to like it,

no, not one little bit...

But to tell you the truth,
it's the only way to get the bug out.

So... Sorry, Will.

Wait a second.

Just hold on a second.

Hold it, hold it!

What have you done?

Relax, he's perfectly okay.

You just need to send your signal out,
don't you, little buddy,

before you're ready
for your new home.

Henry's en route.

Good.

I need a detailed list
of all naval traffic

within a 500-kilometer radius

of the coordinates around Bertha.

What is it?

Satellites just picked up
a disturbance in Mumbai.

It's the EM pulse again.

The Makri.

It's coming from a warehouse
about six kilometers northeast of here.

We need to let Kate know.

I will.

The pulse went global.
They've probably detected it by now.

I need a few minutes.

- Start packing up.
- Copy that. Start packing up!

You're not prepared for this.

I've been training for years
for this moment.

Rocky on the courthouse steps.

I know all about you people.

I've mimicked your diet,
oxygen levels,

nutrients.

I've mastered your meditation.

I've opened more chakras
than you can shake a stick at.

Oh, bibi...

I'm prepared.

You cannot force the Makri
to take you as a host.

It must choose.

The whole religious bit.

Ceremony of acceptance,

commune with the gods,
tinky winky woo-woo.

I've read all about that.

- There's more to it than you know.
- It's a bug!

It needs a host.

It's science.

I have a sensor alert
from Bertha's containment location.

What?

Movement.

I see it. Can you compensate,
flood the area with sedative?

Already done.

Her system's beating it.

Bloody hell, they found her.

Sir, it's happening.

Lock onto her tracking beacon.

Got it.

Is she emitting any magnetic energy?

Are any of our ships close?

Nearest vessels
are 29 kilometers out.

- It's not good enough.
- They're tracking her.

What about their ships?

Two Sanctuary vessels within 30 k.

Watch this.

What's happening?

I don't know. I've lost telemetry
on Bertha. I don't have a position.

Neither do i.

Magnet burst just scrambled
their system.

Two Sanctuary ships
dead in the water.

- Their homing beacon?
- Disabled.

Could be interference.
Reboot the system.

Kate, what's your position?

We're almost there.

Sorry...

Really.

It's just business.

Go to hell.

Sir, we've got Sanctuary personnel
in the vicinity.

They're closing in.

Okay, people,
let's get the hell out of this hole!

Put her in the van.

What about him?

He's already dead.

Converge on the warehouse.

Converge on the warehouse!

Reboot is complete.

I've lost all satellite data
from the region.

Get it back!

I can't.

Dammit.

They used her to blind us.

They've got Big Bertha.

Call Magnus.

No pulse.

Oh, God.

Come on.
Come on, Will.

I'm putting his blood sample
into the system now!

Come on!

It's going to be okay.

Pulmocardiac tach.

Help me hold him!
Will, it's Helen! Can you hear me?

Kali...
She's out there!

God, what the hell
did they do to you?

He's in shock.

Oh, my God.

- What?
- His organs are

in failure.

His system's been flooded
with toxic antibodies.

- Turn him!
- What? He's been poisoned?

The Makri have been removed by force.
It would have released these toxins.

I thought the hosts
can't survive without it.

They can't!

God, he looks terrible.

Unfortunately, the Makri's absence
from his nervous system

is causing a hypersensitive
immune response.

I've stabilized him for now,

reduced the fevers,
prevented more seizures.

We're running tests.

I know of a few treatments
that could slow his decline,

but we simply don't know enough about
the Makri's effects on his physiology.

Any sign of Bertha?

All our resources are being diverted
to the search, but it'll take time.

She could be thousands of miles away
by now.

Don't beat yourself up about it.
You did what you had to do.

I wish it were that simple.

The truth is, I broke the rule
that I myself set into place.

It had to come back and haunt me.

No, doc.

There is a psychic link
to a parasite and an ancient cult.

Abnormals all over the world
are acting crazy.

I would say that your hunch about Bertha
connected to the eco-system is good.

- She could destroy millions of lives.
- And by killing her,

she could destroy millions of lives,
so what kind of choice is that?

Look, it happened...

So we improvise, we fix it.

What else can I do?

Find out if Henry's made it
to the lead search ship.

Patch him through when he's ready.

Done.

Bertha's magnetic burst
definitely caused a spike in weirdness.

I've adjusted our navigation
systems to compensate.

Also,
Declan's reporting more incidents

of abnormals appearing in public,
stirring things up.

I've received messages from heads
of Sanctuaries all over the world.

Things are getting worse.

Doc, listen, about Bertha.
I'm really sorry I wasn't there to help.

You were in the air, Henry.
There's nothing you could've done.

Okay, so we lost round one.

What's our next move?

We need to re-establish contact
with Bertha's tracking device.

Bad guys have got her
under some sort of a jamming cloak.

- My scans aren't picking anything up.
- Who the hell could've done this?

Someone with major connections
in the abnormal world.

It's far more than that.
This is someone

who has gathered pieces of information
that are thousands of years old...

The Cult of Kali, the Makri,
its connection to Bertha.

Who everybody believed was dead.

You know, this whole cult thing,
that's got to be biblical old, no?

Older, in fact.

There are legends of abnormals
who were movers of Earth,

heralds of the great floods, whisperers
who could talk to all creatures.

All these predate even the earliest
Egyptian dynasties.

Someone studied this
as though it were all fact, not myth,

and now they have control
of the most dangerous abnormal on Earth.

I want to know who we're dealing with
and where they've taken her.

Get us back in the game.

We're almost in position,
Mr. Forsythe.

Durga...

Durga?

Durga, find me.

Come to me.

Ravi, I need
two milligrams lorazepam!

Hold him still,
or he'll lose the IV!

Help me!

Help me find her!

Talk to me.

Help me find her...

Dammit...

You can't see her, can you?

Who?

Kali.

You can't see her.

The Bhagavad Gita says
the herald will see her

as a beautiful enchantress
when the connection is strong,

"with color so vibrant
so as to blind a man."

It does say that.

So why am I seeing nothing
when I'm connected to Bertha?

Come on.

I brought you here
as my tech support,

and it's my first time as a herald.

I'm not going
to get nasty with you...

But he might.

Kali only comes to the mind's eye

when the Makri wills it so.

You are not its chosen host.

You will never see her mind
inside yours.

So I don't get fries
with my Happy Meal.

You're not a herald,

and you never will be.

Really?

That's funny,
because I thought I was the one

who made her crawl 200 miles
across the ocean floor.

I'm the one
with the critter inside of me.

I think Bertha will do
whatever I want.

Such as?

What do the ancient texts foretell?

The Great Flood will come
and sweep away sins.

The earth swallowing up our unclean.

Every single holy man has
predicted Bertha's awakening

since the beginning of time,
and guess what?

They're right.

They're right.

Bibi...

It's the end of days.

Don't shoot! Don't shoot!

Do not do that.

- Do what?
- Follow me like that.

You're looking for the ones who hurt
the white man. Those who took my bibi.

You saw them?

The white guy is pretty sick.

Sick? But he has a Makri inside him.

Not anymore.

That's very bad.

You heard from Henry?

Still trying to steal back satellites
to pick up Bertha's trail.

He's going through every ship
in the area at the time she escaped.

So far all their stories check out.

He's checking registries,
and companies...

It's all taking too long.

Bertha's been gone
more than 12 hours now.

Someone has control of her.

Declan's reporting
more abnormals worldwide wreaking havoc.

Controlling the spin
on that many sightings, not easy.

He's speaking more Hindi now
than English when he talks.

- He keeps calling out for Kali.
- Quite possibly a side effect

- of having the Makri forcibly removed.
- It isn't.

This is Arjuna.

He says he's a member of the Cult.

- Tell them what you told me.
- Your friend's still connected to Kali.

Are you certain?

If he still sees her in his dreams,
they can speak.

Kali's an Apsara.

A sea spirit.

Once the Makri chooses its host,
that bond can't be undone,

even when the Makri is gone.

Can he sense this Apsara,
control it?

Not without the Makri.

- He's helpless.
- Unless he call her in a Rapati Sungu.

Rapati Sungu?

- He must dance for her.
- Dance for her?

If he dances a song for her,
she will hear him. If he dances well,

- she will listen to whatever he says.
- Are you sure about this?

Of course.
I am to be a host when I am older.

I've been training
since I was very young.

Infirmary, go ahead.

You have a visitor.

You took Bertha to the woods to kill her
and you never pulled the trigger.

- The optics on that are...
- To hell with the optics, Terrance.

I chose not to kill her.

If I thought it would be popular,
I wouldn't have kept it secret.

The only problem with lying
is getting caught.

- What are you saying?
- I'm saying that 80...

50 years ago, even, no one
would have challenged you on this,

but things have changed.

I'm sure you did
what you thought was best,

and at the time,
it probably was, but now...

I couldn't have known
about the Makri,

or that someone would have figured out
a way to control Bertha remotely.

And I know you took
every precaution,

but it still happened.

This isn't even about credibility.

It's becoming about trust.

You need to contain
this situation quickly.

We need to find whoever's controlling
Bertha and sever the connection.

Once I get her back
into containment again...

Containment?

Bertha is a threat to every
living creature on this planet,

- and you want to put her back in a box?
- This issue is far larger

than you could possibly understand.

Killing her is a last resort.

The other heads of house agree.
It would be far too reckless.

Some feel that way,

but not all...

The tides are turning.

We've known each other
for a long time,

and I owe you everything...

But you need to rethink
your stand on this.

You're on thinner ice
than you realize.

There were about 18 ships
in the vicinity when Bertha was taken.

At first blush,
most of them check out.

You got oil tankers, cargo ships,
fishing trawlers.

No connective tissue
between any of them.

But you found something.

I hacked into the databases
of a few fortune 500 companies,

and I cross-referenced
their boards of directors.

You know, those guys make a whole bunch
of money for doing pretty much nothing?

And?

And, well, one of the guys sits
on the board of every company

that had ships in the region
where Bertha was hijacked.

Here you go.

This is Edward Forsythe.

Now, he's a big player
in the global geo-mining biz.

This guy owns half of the oil rigs
in the gulf of Mexico

and the North sea oil project.

All right, and...

He was in Mumbai
when all this went down.

I've met him before.

He approached me
at a conference years ago,

asked all sorts of questions
about abnormals in ancient mythology.

Oh, sorry.

It's a bit rough in here.

So I don't know
how he knows what he knows,

yet,

but he did buy lots of ancient artifacts
from museums over the last few years

for, like, insane amounts of money.

- What kind of artifacts?
- Totems, scrolls, ancient texts.

It's all shroud-of-turin
indiana-jones stuff.

He believes every abnormal can be traced
to a certain region of Pangea,

going back, like, millions of years.

- The original super-continent?
- Interesting theory, but without proof.

So what does a billionaire art collector
want with an earthquake monster?

Controlling Bertha's like having
the ultimate nuke.

He could be using her to leverage
oil rights anywhere in the world.

Political blackmail
for business contracts.

Any coastal city is in jeopardy
if he lets her loose.

That's a lot of risk
for a little gain.

I mean, the guy definitely
doesn't need the money.

Then what on Earth is he up to?

Do you think they're onto me,

Magnus and her crew?

I think they're onto me.

Not that it matters.

They have no idea what I'm up to.

They're probably digging up
the auction sale

from the canopic jar of Shtabi
from the London museum.

They should've bought it
from a numbered company.

We're never gonna be pals, are we?

You're afraid.

You should be.

Sorry about the delay, sir.

Bertha's proximity is playing havoc
with our navigation.

We were about to start
swapping puke stories.

What's new?

She's made good progress, sir.
She's at the designated coordinates now.

So we're ready for phase two?
Collateral damage?

We anticipate major seismic activities
associated with her actions.

Coastal areas will be hit very hard.

That's a damn shame.

- Let's get it started.
- Right.

Come on, girl, let's go to work.

Where have you been?

Come.

You have been looking for me?

That depends

if this is real or not.

I am real, Durga.

As real as you.

Why do you call me that?

Durga.

It is your name.

Don't tell me
you have forgotten mine as well?

Kali.

You should have not disappeared
like that.

Where did you go?

The thing that connects us
was taken from me.

The Makri?

And you allowed this?

I didn't have the choice.

But the other one...

that you're connected to...

is not your herald.

He calls me.

You need to stay.

Don't listen to him.

I must go, Durga.

I can't stay.

No, wait.

If you are my true herald,

find me.

How?

Dance...

the Rapati Sungu.

Dance?

And you will find me.

I should have taken
more precautions.

His state of mind's been
deteriorating lately.

I've contacted the local authorities,
given his description.

I'm sure they'll be a big help.

You'd think a guy wandering the street
screaming about Kali would get noticed.

Not really. It's Mumbai.

I want all abnormals with psychic
and remote-viewing abilities activated.

If Will's mind is linked to Bertha,

there may be a way to track him
using unconventional means.

On it.

- Not now, Terrance.
- We need to get on a ship,

lead the search for Bertha,
and end this.

The search is ongoing.
Finding Will is just as important.

His link to Bertha
may well be the key.

I need five minutes.

- Take over, I'll be right back.
- Got it.

Come with me.

Are you sure?

Are you sure? Look at it.

Hey, buddy.

Thanks for nothing.

Come on...

God, these people are really,
really unhelpful.

No wonder we have no idea
where he's gone.

You're not really Indian, are you?

Excuse me? Dude...

Yeah, but you didn't grow up here,
that's for sure.

So you have no idea
how to talk to these people.

They want to help us.
You're just not asking properly.

Am I supposed to offer them money?

'cause I have tried that.
It doesn't work.

It's entirely inappropriate to offer
money to someone in their own home.

You need to show politeness,
gratitude.

Would it kill you to have
a cup of tea with them, for God's sake?

They don't like you.
Stop being rude, they'll help us.

I know all that.

It's just that I've never bought
into that whole...

Quiet,

subservient indian girl thing.

Man, you have some serious hangups
about your roots.

This is the 21st century.

You don't have to be a servant, a maid,
you just have to show some respect.

You can be likeable, even attractive,
when you let your guard down.

Try that.

Did you...

just make a pass at me?

Warming up to it,

not that my parents
would approve of you, of course.

I'm joking. They'd love you.

Really?

I know Will is tied into this,

but you're only gonna
dig yourself a bigger hole

by taking your eyes off of Bertha.

- Believe me, it's the right strategy.
- No, it isn't.

- You are way out of line.
- You need to focus on this right now.

Lying about not euthanizing
an extinction-level abnormal

would've gotten any other
head of house suspended,

but because it's you, they're trying
to give you the benefit of the doubt.

- Which they should.
- For how long?

And now with this Forsythe character
who can control her by remote,

what would you say
if the shoe were on the other foot?

There are extenuating circumstances.

We don't know enough yet
about her connection to the Earth.

You don't destroy
something that powerful

- without having all the facts.
- The fact is,

she can destroy half of Europe
when she's upset!

You've taken us to the brink, Helen.

How did you think
the network would respond?

You taught us to think like this.

You said, "question everything".

They're giving you 72 hours
to contain the situation.

It's Henry.

Geosynchronous satellites detected
major magnetic disturbances

about four minutes ago.

I'm sending you the data now.

Based on the resonance pattern,
this has got to be Bertha.

Redirect all search teams
to the coordinates.

We're closing in now,

and I know your next question:
Why would he send Bertha there?

- Tectonic plates.
- Because the tecton... Yeah, right.

It's a convergence point
of three major tectonic boundaries

in the southern hemisphere,
the Indian, African and Arabian plates.

Dear god, he's gonna set her off.

No change since the recent burst.

- Nothing?
- No activity. She's just sitting there.

You're not strong enough.

You're not worthy
of carrying the Makri,

and Kali knows it.

Really?

Watch this.

Fire the little spider up.

Magnetic resonance burst,

half power,
just to get things started.

- Mr. Forsythe...
- Shut up and do it.

Seismic readings coming
from Bertha's position.

She's active. It's starting.

Like I said, end of days.

I've got your chopper at Shivaji airport
prepped and ready to go.

- Should get you out here in six hours.
- Good. Is the weapon ready?

Yeah, one VLF Bertha stunner,
ready to go.

You get close enough, the acoustic
bullet should put her back to sleep.

- Just, the problem is...
- We have to get close enough.

- I'll get there as soon as I can.
- Okay, fly safe.

You're using a long-range
acoustic device against Bertha?

We could knock her out.

Forsythe can't control
an unconscious creature.

- You need an alternative.
- I'm hoping it won't come to that.

- There's too much at stake.
- I agree.

If there is absolutely no alternative,
then I will destroy her.

{\Many blessings upon your house
for your good will.}

- Suddenly such a delicate flower.
- Bite me.

It's actually quite breathtaking.

We'll monitor you from here.
Maintain radio contact.

- Do nothing unless I order it.
- Of course.

Ready!

Kali, what are you doing?

No, you must stop!

The end...

The end of days!

The Great Flood!

The Great Flood is coming!

We're almost at the coordinates.
Anything yet?

Yeah, reports of seismic activity
in the area,

low-grade, but pretty constant.

We've got to be getting
pretty close.

I'm just getting some weird
mapping data here.

- Okay, that's just crazy.
- What is it?

I'm cross-checking with
our nautical charts. Just hold on.

Okay, either we're totally
off course, or...

Doc, I'm reading
a chain of islands dead ahead,

but there's nothing in the charts
indicating any land mass,

just open ocean.

That's because it's new.

- She's not making earthquakes.
- She's making land.

This is Magnus.
We have a complication.

- Are you getting these images?
- Yes, we are.

Sonar indicates tectonic plates
are diverging rapidly.

We're also detecting a smaller vessel,
six miles west of your position.

You wanna bet it's Forsythe?

This is the Captain.
We're moving to intercept.

Don't!
He's got control of Bertha.

If we try taking his ship,
there's no telling what he'll do.

That's why he's out here alone.
He has the ultimate bodyguard.

If she keeps building...

It'll cause massive destruction
to the entire region, I know.

We're circling around, trying to get
a better lock on her position.

Copy that. Standing by.

Ready deployment
of all depth charges.

If she can't finish this, we will.

Yes, sir.

People are saying there's something
happening a few streets over.

I can't get a shot.

We didn't anticipate her making islands,
and they're kind of in the way.

Dammit.

What do you want me to do, doc?

Target Forsythe's ship.

Forsythe's ship?

If we can't shoot Bertha,

we might be able to use the LRAD
to sever his connection to her.

Oh, man...

Kali, you must stop!
The end of days...

I must...

I must find her.

How can I find her?

Dance...

I can dance!

I can dance!

Damn, I'm losing her.

We're tracking a lone helicopter
closing in on our position.

Mr. Forsythe...

Mr. Forsythe?

It's Magnus, shoot her down.

Doc!

We have a weapons lock
on our position!

He's got missiles?

Of course he does.

Deploying countermeasures.
Hang on!

Nice move, doc!

Get ready to fire the weapon!

We have missed the target.
20 seconds to reload.

Namaskarr, Durga.

Namaskarr, Kali.

Bertha's slowing down.
Her volcanic activity is decreasing.

Come on, stay with me.

- I have a shot!
- Take it!

He was here.
People saw him a few minutes ago.

I know, I got the same story.

- Something about a...
- Dancing, and apparently, quite well.

Will dancing?

- Pull our people back.
- What?

The dance, the Rapati Sungu.

He's trying to reach Bertha.

Get our people away from him.

It worked.

You heard me.

You summoned me.

Please, stop what you're doing.

The Makri is telling me
that there is danger.

You said your Makri
was taken from you.

I know,

but...

I can still feel you.

- What you're doing...
- Is what I am asked to do.

If you don't stop,

millions of people will die.

Then they will die.

But this herald...

He doesn't respect you.
He's only using you for his own gain.

- You are different?
- Yes!

I respect you.

Your power is incredible,

but killing innocent people
is not what you're meant to do.

I have heard this
from other heralds in the past,

a request for leniency,

for mercy.

People are stronger now.

If you hurt them,

they'll hurt you back.

I only wish to be left alone.

What's Bertha doing now?

Scans indicate...

She's inactive!

I think it worked!

- Did you hit her?
- She's quiet.

But still conscious?

We should be able to guide her back
to her containment area.

I'm heading back to the ship.
We'll regroup for the next phase.

Understood.

Captain...

Deploy all depth charges
to Bertha's position.

Target her with everything we have.

Right now.

Yes, sir.

Ready all ordnance.
All charges, maximum depth.

All charges max depth. Aye, sir.

And cut off all Magnus' communications
with the other ships.

Why was I asked to make land?

I don't know,

but you don't have to do
what he says.

Please...

You danced well for me, Durga.

I didn't have much of a choice.

I had to get your attention,
didn't I?

Depth charges?

Terrance,
what the hell are you doing?

Dammit!

What? What is it?

You said you would leave me alone!

What happened?

You betrayed me!

What the hell are you playing at?

She was calm!

We had a window of opportunity.
It had to be done.

Captain...

Please escort Mr. Wexford to the brig,
pending my orders.

With all respect, ma'am, I can't.

I received a coded message
on the secure network frequency.

- Mr. Wexford...
- By unanimous consent,

you are hereby relieved of your command
of the Sanctuary network,

- effective immediately.
- Dude, you cannot be serious.

Don't interfere, dude.

I'm in charge of operations now.

You're remanded to custody,
pending further disciplinary action.

- You had this planned all along.
- I had to take over if you failed,

and by letting Bertha live yet
once again, you most certainly have.

I'm sorry, Helen.

You gave me no choice.

You have no idea what you've done.

I saved lives.

I did what you refused to do.

No, Terrance,

this is what you've done!

Oh, she's mad.
