Sanctuary (2008–2011): Season 4, Episode 3 - Untouchable - full transcript

The UN Security Council sends a task force headed by a weasel of a man, Greg Addison, to investigate the Sanctuary. His disdain for abnormals is matched by the disdain that Magnus and team have for him.

Previously on Sanctuary...

[Henry]: This is amazing.
I always thought I was alone.

Now I know that's not true.

- I want you to stay--
- I want you to come with me--

I grew up in an
institution for abnormals.

The Sanctuary's more than that.
It's a family.

[Will]: The abnormals
are moving in formation.

[Magnus]: Someone, or something

is in complete control
of these beings.

What the hell happened to you?

You were out of
communication for hours.



[Magnus]:
More like years, actually.

Years?

113, to be precise.

I went through the files
on Addison's team.

A lot of Ivy League
educations,

state department resumes,

no marriages or kids.

[Magnus]:
"Orphans preferred," lovely.

What do we know about
this Addison fellow himself?

[Will]: He's the U.N. Security
Council's top troubleshooter.

Harvard Law,

Brookings Institute,
the Hague.

He's advised world leaders
on everything

from Iraq, to Libya,



to the B.P. oil spill
in the Gulf.

Wow, now he's here
to deal with us.

If he wasn't such a pit bull,
I'd be flattered.

[Henry]: Terminal farm's
up and running

in the research lab.

Are you sure you want me
to give these guys

complete access
to our current protocols?

[Bigfoot]: Bunch of strangers
poking around,

I don't like it.

[Will]: Nobody does, but it's
not like we have a choice.

[Henry]: What about
the "Tea with Magnus,

photo op with
a mermaid" option?

[Will]: That ain't gonna fly
this time.

Everything's changed

since the Calderas
to Hollow Earth were breached.

High-level people
need reassurance

that the situation
is under control.

You've secured
the research database?

Done.

Current security
and user activity

are open access.

The rest is behind
an invisible firewall.

And I'll be monitoring
their traffic full time,

so we'll know right away

if they try anything
off the hook.

All secure
on the residential levels?

No stragglers?

Tight as a drum.

Total lockdown in 40 minutes.

Good job, everyone.

Right, one more walkthrough,
and we'll reconvene here at--

[doorbell rings]

[Will]: What,
an hour ahead of schedule?

No, there's no way.
Gate defenses are up.

There is no way he just
walked to the front door.

Yeah, see?

Gate was opened
with an approved code.

Mine...

Well, who'd you give it to?

No one.

[doorbell rings]

To the best of my knowledge.

Erika!

[Magnus]: This is a surprise.

[Erika]: Hello, all.

Sorry to intrude.

Hi, honey.

Wow, it's really good
to see you.

Uh... Did we have plans
to get together?

I have some news
that couldn't wait.

[Henry]: Okay. Great.

[Erika]: I wanted to tell you
in person...

[Henry]: Good.

It's just that we have
this U.N. inspection team

due in an hour,

and I'm installing this
whole new mirror array

so that they can access our
system without actually--

Henry.

Stopping?

Listening.

You're going to be a father.

Oh.

[laughing]

[???]

This type of fish
is not good to eat.

Well, the man we seek
needs a special diet.

Then this is your man.

You probably want to
get out of here

before things go down.

[music plays loudly
in earbuds]

[Henry]: Yeah, and then
the whole thing went to hell.

[Erika]: So this being they were
looking for was called a...

A Crixorum.
It's a Hollow Earth abnormal.

Made top of the Red List
after the invasion.

[Erika]: How so?

[Henry]: Crazy huge
psychic powers.

The doc's convinced he's the one

who coordinated
the abnormal uprising.

He talked to three armies
at once, with his mind.

[Erika]: How in the world do you
stop someone like that?

[Henry]: Well, he's one guy,
so there are ways.

Problem is, how do you stop
the next army he controls?

You know, someone
like Kim Jong II,

or the next bin Ladin...

They'd become invincible.

Exactly. Which is why the doc
needed to get there first

and bring him back
before he did more damage.

I take it that didn't happen.

No. Not at all.

Whole mission went sideways.

Next thing we know,
boom, hammer comes down.

U.N. gives us two days' notice

they're coming in with
an investigation team

to go through
our underwear drawers.

[Erika]: And then I drop
my little bombshell.

Oh, no, no, I didn't
mean that at all.

This is, easily,

the most amazing
thing I've...

Will be
the most amazing thing, that...

we've ever...

When it finally sinks in.

[Henry]: Yeah, I'm, like,
five minutes

into being a future Dad.

I think I deserve
a little slack, maybe.

[chuckling]

Take your time.

[Erika]: In the meantime,
what can I do to help?

[Henry]: Oh, shouldn't you
be resting?

You know, in your...?

[Erika]: If you say
"delicate condition",

I'll bite you.

Task me. You know I have
serious game at coding.

[Henry]: Which I call foreplay.

[Erika]: Which got us into
this mess in the first place.

[Henry]: You're the most amazing
girlfriend ever.

[Addison]: Nice digs.

A little formal.

If you need the name
of a decorator,

I know a fabulous
firm in L.A.

Just did James Cameron's
Aspen estate.

[Will]: Did you come here
to name-drop?

[Addison]: With Helen Magnus?
Come on, sport, I'd lose.

No, I'm here to make the call
on whether or not the Sanctuary

continues to receive
funding and support

from the people who hired me.

You know, the ones
running the world.

[Magnus]: That's quite a team
you've brought with you.

Are they completely necessary?

[Addison]: Well, if it helps,
think of me as Elliot Ness,

and these guys behind me?
The Untouchables.

[Will]: If it helps,

Magnus knew
the real Elliot Ness,

and, just going out
on a limb here,

that's not you.

[Addison]:
Congratulations, sport,

you win round one
of "Who knows who."

[Magnus]: I've arranged
secure terminals

at one of our labs.

My people will be available
for any debriefing you may need.

[Addison]: I love it.

This is Cassidy Turner,
my senior technical consultant.

Cass, take the team
and get started.

Absolutely.

Help her set up,
will you, sport?

I'm going to take
the menagerie tour

with Dr. Magnus.

Will, could you please

take Ms. Turner and her team
to the research lab?

If you call me "sport"
once more,

I'm going to
knock your teeth in.

Welcome to the Sanctuary.

Follow me, everyone.

[Magnus]: This is not
a menagerie, Mr. Addison.

What else
do you call the place

where they keep the monsters
and the freaks?

[chuckles indulgently]

You're fooling no one
with this tactic.

Come in
as obnoxious as possible,

put us all on the defensive.

Ah, you got me.

You know what I love about
really great tactics?

They work even when the
other guy sees them coming.

[elevator dings]

[Addison]: I think
you've gotten very used

to having carte blanche
around the world

because you helped Interpol

take down
a three-headed madman,

or covered up
the Squidblood origins

of some president's wife.

Ah...

So this is about my ego.

Doctor, we have
hit and run attacks

by rogue abnormal groups

on Lotus Defense training camps

as well as
civilian casualties

that someone has to explain
to the press.

There's over a hundred years
of history here, Mr. Addison.

Any chance you'll call me Greg?

None whatsoever.

[elevator dings]

Monsters?

[Henry]: Sorry, it'll just be
another couple of minutes.

[Will]: It's okay, Henry.

Everyone knows
this was last minute.

[Turner]:
We've got all day.

[console beeps]

[Henry]:
Okay, that should do it.

Oh, great, more people.

[Will]:
Meet Greg Addison.

U.N. Security Council liaison,
and all 'round nice guy.

[Addison]: Henry Foss, right?

- Yes.
- I love your work.

Aw, thanks.

I mean, whatever.

[Addison]:
And this would be..?

Erika Myers, and I already
don't like you.

[Henry]:
Yeah, we're, uh, together.

Well, aren't you
the lucky guy?

[Magnus]:
I trust everything

is to your liking?

[Addison]: Cass?

Uh, well, the system
is a bit archaic,

but I think we can
find our way around.

[Henry]: Um, are you sure?

Because she can be
a little delicate

if you don't understand
her mods--

Did you say "archaic"?

[Will]: Whoa, ho-ho...
What is all this stuff?

[Cassidy]: Just a few
adaptive peripherals.

Since we're required to do
the work on-site,

without our customized
workstations.

[Henry]: Oh, Doc,
this is so uncool.

[Magnus]: I agreed to allow
your investigators

short-term access
to our system

using our facilities,

not to set up
an entirely foreign network.

I won't have you
compromise our security,

even unintentionally.

Make do
with what they give you.

Given the things they keep
in the building,

what choice do we have?

[Erika]: What do you mean
by that?

"Things we keep
in the building?"

It's cool, Erika.

[Addison]: Oh, you didn't
get the tour?

The place is crawling
with monsters. Freaks.

You know, stuff that
jumps out at you--

[Erika]: We're not monsters!

[snarling]

Whoa...

[Magnus]: Erika! Erika...

[Will]: Just relax,
just relax...

[Henry]: So not worth it.

[Addison]: I can see why
she's your girlfriend.

[Henry]: Watch yourself, dude.

I take it she's a...

[Magnus]: Hyper Accelerated
Protean, like Henry.

One of only a few
left in the world.

And she's not usually
like this.

I'm flattered.

[Erika]: Don't be.
The way you judge us!

[Henry]: Okay--
sweetheart...

What's wrong?

[breathing hard]

I-I couldn't.... I can't...

[roaring]

[Addison]: Okay, what is
the deal with her?

[Will]: Just
give her a minute.

[Henry]:
Doc, something's not right.

[Magnus]: I agree.
Let's get her to isolation.

Come on.

Well, I couldn't feel safer
right now.

[Magnus]:
When you and your aunt

were helping the Lycans
in Oldham,

did you see
many children born?

[Erika]: No.

Aunt Lillian said it was because
our race was so ancient.

That we were reaching
the end of our run.

But now I think

it must have been a side effect
of the medications.

[Magnus]: I agree.

By suppressing
your transformative DNA,

she was suppressing
your fertility as well.

This might be
the first Lycan baby

since my parents died.

Okay, but, um,
what just happened?

[Magnus]: It seems odd, yes.

Your body should be
locking your cells

to protect the fetus.

You shouldn't be able
to transform at all.

[Henry]: Right, 'cause
when she does,

her insides
transform as well,

so, um, the baby...

Fetal readings
are completely normal.

The embryo is healthy.

But I do think
that the pregnancy hormones

are interfering with
your ability

to manage emotional triggers.

Right, I'm going to
run some bloodwork,

see if I can find a treatable
chemical imbalance.

In the meantime,

I hope you'll be
comfortable here.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to make things
harder for you.

Ah, that's okay.
It was pretty bad-ass.

I wanted to
rip his throat out myself.

[Magnus' cell phone buzzes]

[sighs]

Duty calls.

Henry, you stay here
with Erika.

She's the priority.

I'll, uh, keep an eye
on the Geek Squad.

No offense.

[elevator dings]

[Bigfoot]:
Addison asked for coffee.

[she scoffs]
Philistine.

I trust you did your best
to make him feel welcome?

[Bigfoot]: Yeah, I pretended
I didn't know how to talk.

[Magnus]: I don't suppose
he fell for it.

[Bigfoot]:
He started dissing the Rays.

- Ooh, ouch.
- Yeah, we had words.

[Will]: Oh, good, there you are.

[Magnus]: How are our guests
settling in?

A little bit too comfortably
for my liking.

It was inevitable, Will.

The more they see,
the more convinced they'll be

that the Sanctuary
has nothing to hide.

Okay, I know
that you're all Zen

from your 113 years
on the mountaintop, but me?

I'm just a normal uptight guy.

[Bigfoot]: Yeah?

[Magnus]: We could waste
a lot of energy

fighting this battle,

but there's a long war ahead.

If you start calling me
"Young Grasshopper,"

I'm quitting.

[Addison]: Three weeks ago,

we damn near had the abnormal
apocalypse on our hands.

[Will]: Which we averted.

[Addison]: You pulled
the nose of the plane up

about 10 seconds before
it hit the ground, yeah.

Congratulations.

Not exactly
confidence-inspiring,

and now we've got
a thousand or more abnormals

roaming the surface unchecked.

[Magnus]: You can be assured

we have our best teams
worldwide dealing with them.

The point is, you
and your amazing worldwide teams

failed to contain them
in the first place.

[Will]: Lotus made
their own enemies

by attacking abnormal tribes
at the caldera sites.

And you guaranteed
that if they stood down,

you would eliminate the threat.

You haven't delivered on that.

Well, at least
we're doing something about it.

I don't see you offering up
any solutions.

I'm getting there,
trust me, kid.

[scoffs]

There's a common thread

to how these fugitive abnormals

continue to evade
our retrieval teams,

and their ability to infiltrate
the concealed bases.

[Addison]: Does it explain
what went wrong

in Jakarta last week?

The reason these fugitives

have been able to stay
a step ahead

is the same thing that makes their army
so formidable.

There's a hidden leader
among them,

someone with the ability
to communicate instantly

over any distance, psychically.

And yet you kept
this information to yourself.

Until I had confirmation.

I've had Kate Freelander

looking into things
down in Hollow Earth,

and a network of informants
here on the surface.

[Will]: Which is why
we were in Jakarta

in the first place.

[Magnus]: We knew the Crixorum
could pass for human.

The only other solid lead we had

was that he needs a daily dose
of Vibrio phosphorae bacteria

to survive.

[Will]: Found
in high concentration

in the local lanternfish.

[Magnus]: We were put
in touch with a local,

who then led us to the man
who'd been buying them up.

[Will]: There he is.

[Magnus]: Wahid?

Senang bertemu nada.

[Wahid]: And to you.

[Magnus]: You know about
this man we seek?

[Wahid]: There are not
many secrets in the marketplace.

Not to those
who can afford to pay.

The man we seek
needs a special diet.

The man you're looking for
will be here soon.

[Magnus]: And you're certain

you've seen this man
here before?

[Wahid]: Every evening

he buys from
the fish-seller Samar.

Lantern fish, you're positive?

This type of fish
is not good to eat.

He's your man.

[Will]: You probably want
to get out of here

before things go down.

[Magnus]: We used music

to interfere with
the Crixorum's ability

to manipulate our minds.

[music blasting in earbuds]

[crowd screaming in panic]

Bloody hell.

Who are those guys?

[Will]: Somebody else was
trying to bag the same prize.

Black market traffickers,
we think.

[Magnus]: Whoever they were,

they should have been
more prepared.

[Will]: They had
state-of-the-art body armor,

automatic weapons,

and no idea
what they were doing.

[guns blasting]

What is this, a competition?

They're shooting at each other!

[Will]: Magnus,
we're losing him!

They went in there
totally unprepared,

and got shredded.

So your target,
the Crixorum,

used his mental powers

and turned that place
into a free-fire zone.

Isn't that something
anyone could have predicted?

[she scoffs]

There's a reason just
the two of us went in there

and we left the rest
of our team out of range.

Because we did have an idea
what we were up against.

[Will]: Whoever sent
that other team in

is the one
who should be on trial.

[Magnus]: Will...

[Will]: No, no,
I'm tired of this game.

Those were your men,
weren't they, Addison?

You sent those men
to their deaths, not us.

You're damn right I did.

[Henry]: You must have
really interesting job fairs.

[Cassidy]: Invitation only.

[Henry]: Whatever, I always figured
government analyst jobs

for a complete snoozefest.

[Cassidy]: Not if you like
beta-testing cool gear

two years
before people like you

get it on the gray market.

[Henry]: Okay, fine, but tell me
it doesn't suck

having a guy
like Addison for a boss.

I believe in
my work, Henry,

just like you.

Only mine comes
with pension and health,

a brownstone
in Brooklyn Heights,

and unlimited
First Class air travel.

Last month, I had a working dinner
with Steve Jobs.

[Henry]: Oh, yeah,
I think I heard of him.

[Cassidy]: Let me know if you ever decide
to make a change.

There are more than
a few companies

who could use a guy
with your skills.

[Henry]: You know, I doubt that.

So, are you ready
to give me a look

at this custom system
you're so proud of?

[typing]

[Henry]: You have full access.

[Cassidy]: Okay, I need
complete blueprints

for the following weapons,

a "platinum oscillating
sonic disruptor,"

whatever that is.

[Henry]: Uh-huh.

[Cassidy]: Something called
"a Magna-Slinger?"

[Henry]: Yup.

[Cassidy]: And a handheld

invasive
scent directional detector.

[Henry]:
The Smell-O-Vator, check.

And I can't help you.

You do realize

most of these things are built
with an hour's lead time

and a deadly abnormal
on the loose.

So no blueprints.

Not even a napkin sketch.

You really want me putting

"jury-rigged weapons
unavailable for inspection--"

Oh, come on,
I never said "jury-rigged."

Yeah, I guess I did.

If you have nothing to hide,
don't hide anything.

[cell phone chimes]
Excuse me.

I need 20 minutes.

[Erika crying]

[Henry]: What happened?
Is she hurt?

[Bigfoot]: Uh...ask her.

[Henry]: Erika?

[Erika]: Don't look!

Sweetheart? It's okay.

[Erika]: I can't change it.

Magnus can fix this.
You're going to be okay--

I'm out of control.

I can't even think straight!

[Henry]: And th-that...
is a beautiful part of you.

[Erika]:
What would you know about it?

You don't love me.
You don't want me here!

[Henry]: Erika...

[Erika]: Get away from me!

You ignored
Sanctuary jurisdiction

over fugitive abnormals

and put your own people
on the ground.

After the mess you made
in the camp

and the failed retrievals since,

you really find it shocking
we have a Plan B?

[Will]: You had no idea
what you were doing.

You blew all our groundwork
by storming in there unprepared.

Hey, pal,
I lost good men in there.

Anybody in that market
could have been killed

in the crossfire!

Not that you care about
little details

like collateral damage.

You do realize
the value of that creature.

How powerful he could make
whoever controls him?

An abnormal
who can see far-off events

and then relay commands
instantly across any distance?

No way I was leaving
that retrieval to your side.

Our side?

[chuckles ruefully] I see.

[Will]: If you wanted
safe extraction,

you could have come to us
for a joint mission,

but you didn't.

[Magnus]:
Of course not.

They wanted to collect
the Crixorum for themselves,

and control it.

[Will]: How'd you even
find out where it was?

[Magnus]:
They didn't have to.

You tracked us.

[guns blasting]

[Will]: Magnus,
we're losing him!

Stay with him!

[Will]: He was dead
before he hit the water.

[Magnus]: But I suspect
that's what you wanted.

Better to have him
taken out of play

than to fall into
the wrong side.

You both finished?

[Magnus]: Unless there's more.

[Addison]: There's just
one small flaw

in the whole narrative.

A little slide show
of the body

my people fished out
of the canal in Jakarta.

That thing
that we were all chasing?

Autopsy revealed no extraordinary
brain functions.

Meaning it was no Crixorum.

So, now, how about
we cut the crap,

and you two start
telling me the truth?

[Henry]: I'm not seeing her

on any of our
security feeds.

I can't believe
you let this happen.

[Bigfoot]: You left her alone.

[Henry]: I have work to do.

You were supposed to be
watching her!

[Bigfoot]: I'm not a jailer.

[Henry]: Erika!

Erika, sweetie?

[Bigfoot]: She definitely
came through here.

[Henry]: Huh? How do you--?

No.

Oh, no.

No, no, no, you do not sniff
another guy's girlfriend.

[Bigfoot]:
I was just trying to help.

[Henry]: Don't help, okay?
I got this.

[Bigfoot]:
Fine, I'll be in the lab.

[scoffs]

[sniffing gingerly]

[tablet chimes]

Oh, thank God.

[Henry]: Hey. Are you okay?

I'm great.

Oh, that's great.

So, uh, you ready
to come back up to Iso, then?

Uh, I could,

but while I have you alone,
I wanted to show you something.

See, I had this idea
for an algorithm

that could track
coding errors and your fixes.

Eventually it could
predict your behavior

and fix itself,

even when you're busy elsewhere.

[Henry]:
You did this for me?

Well, it's kind of for me.

Because it means

you could spend
less time at the keyboard.

[Henry]: Wow.

This is some great stuff.

Just a few preliminary ideas.

You'll need to refine it.

[Erika]:
Liking the foreplay?

[Henry]: Heck, yes.

You know what,
a few revisions,

we could start
testing this right now.

Or... maybe not
right now.

Um... maybe my room
would be better...

Henry, right now.

I know it's the hormones,
but I'm so into this...

[footsteps approach]

Henry.

[Erika snarls]

Separate interviews?

So now we're being treated
as hostile witnesses.

If you start
telling me the truth,

then you won't need to worry

about coordinating your story
with the boy wonder, will you?

[Magnus]: Everything
we told you was true.

We identified the man

we believed to be the leader
of the local insurgent cell.

We pursued him.

Your men intervened.

We saw him die.

[Addison]: You're claiming
you believed this man

to be the Crixorum.

I believe the autopsy
your people did was wrong.

How can they be certain

that that dead abnormal
wasn't a Crixorum?

Oh wait,

because they've been doing this
for 120 years like I have.

You reported
Big Bertha was dead

to keep her from being hunted.

I think you're doing
the same thing now.

Could you blame me if I was?

Doctor...

Your high-level allies
are not taking your calls.

I've got people standing by

waiting to cut off your funding,
freeze your assets,

empty your accounts...

If the case warrants it.

In your judgment.

[Addison]: That's right.

I'm the man

who can bankrupt your Sanctuary
with a phone call.

Where's the real Crixorum?

[music blasting in earbuds]

[crowd screaming]

[Magnus]: Bloody hell.

[Will]: Who are those guys?

[guns blasting]

[Magnus]: They're shooting
at each other!

[Will]: Magnus,
we're losing him!

[Magnus]: It's Wahid!
He's doing this!

[Will]: Wahid
set up the whole thing

to misdirect us.

Yes, we should have read
the playbook on this one,

but things happened too fast.

[Magnus]: He created a decoy
to take the heat off of him,

to lay a trail
to the fish market,

all of that.

While your men
were searching the canal...

He headed for the street.

Wahid put the decoy in our path

fully intending
for him to get killed.

He wanted us to think
he was dead.

Why isn't this
what's in your report?

Because a Crixorum can
change the balance of power

for the whole world...

Telling the U.N.,
"Gee, guys, sorry,

but he had us fooled"

wouldn't have exactly inspired
confidence, now, would it?

We were hoping
to find him again...

Before anyone else did.

So you made sure

no one else
would be looking for him.

Then you could look like heroes
when you brought him in.

Heroes?

You have no idea how we work.

But I'm right
about what happened?

Public Enemy number one
got the better of you.

You lost him.

Well done.

[Henry]: Okay, you guys have
all the reports on these.

I kind of got to
get back downstairs.

Last I recall,

Dr. Magnus
put you at my disposal.

You might want to look up
what that means.

So, these stunners have
a sonic oscillator.

Is that a wide or narrow beam?

Adjustable.

And what's the power
supply on this one?

You'll have to ask
Nikola Tesla, he built it.

Could you please
take this seriously?

Oh. You are serious.

You people really don't
get this place, do you?

You're trying to do
a red-tape audit

on a place where the guy
who invented alternating current

blows in
on his way through town.

Okay, well, we still
need documentation.

Could you get him to draw up
some patent diagrams?

Uh-huh, yeah.
I'll get right on that.

Great. Thanks.

[Erika]: I know they
asked you to babysit me.

[Bigfoot]: Again.

[Erika, chuckling]: Sorry.

So, you and Henry have
been friends a long time.

[Bigfoot]: Can't talk about it.

What? I wasn't--

[Bigfoot]: Going to ask me
about Henry? No?

Childhood? Other women?
Not curious?

Well, of course I'm curious.

[Bigfoot]: Can't talk
about it. Ask him.

I got that.

So... what should I ask him?

[he chuckles]

Nice try.

[beeping]

[Erika]: Oh... Good lord.

[Bigfoot]: Something wrong?

Henry needs to
see this, right now.

[Addison]: Hugely dangerous
abnormal on the loose,

which you lied about
to cover up your screw-up.

That's supposed to convince us
to trust Magnus

with the fate of the world?

If you'd trusted her
in the first place,

we wouldn't be having
this conversation.

Wow.

You really are
completely under her spell.

You got what you wanted.

We screwed up,
we lost the target,

and you can spin that
however you like.

Are we finished talking?

Not quite.

No, my job's
not to pull you over

for one moving violation.

I'm here to get
the whole picture

on how this place really runs.

You have a couple of years?

[Addison]:
If that's what it takes.

You know, I get why Helen Magnus

wants to protect her monopoly
on Abnormal Science.

I do.

It's been a good living for her
since Britannia ruled the waves,

and most likely
she'll still be doing it

a hundred years from now.

What does she care

which governments
rise and fall?

But you...

Shouldn't your loyalty
be to your own kind?

And which kind is that?

You were the perfect choice
for her, you know?

Father hardly around,

never had much in common
with his egghead son anyway--

[Will]:
Stop trying to profile me.

[Addison]:
Then his indictment,

just as you were starting
to fit into the Bureau.

Boy, that must have
been tough on you, huh?

[Will]: Really?
You're really going to go there?

Nothing's off limits
here, sport.

The people
that you're up against,

starting to feel
how powerful they are yet?

Okay, so you read
my sealed file,

and you know
that I don't shut up

even when people want me to.

Shame about your mother.

Losing her when
you were just a kid?

But then again,

I guess you found the perfect
substitute here, huh?

Tailor-made.

[Henry]: So while Cassidy
is distracting me

with our missing blueprints,

her people are tunneling
through our firewalls.

If Erika hadn't been testing
her repair gremlin

at that exact right moment,

they might have actually
gotten somewhere.

Any details on what
they were trying to access?

[Henry]: Patient records.
Resident inventory.

The microfilm database
of your father's journals.

You know, call it everything.

[Magnus]: You did stop them.

[Henry]: Thanks to
a few failsafes, yeah,

but they got close.

[Magnus]: Well, no harm done.

[Henry]: What?

This is an attack, Doc.

Come on, the audit,
the investigation,

all a smokescreen
to get them inside

so they can get their hands
on your research.

I agree.

[Henry]: Let's pull the plug
and kick 'em out of here, then.

Not just yet.

[elevator dings]

[Will]: Okay, now you're
really pushing it.

I'm not kidding with you--

[Addison]: Come on,
don't take it so personal.

I needed to get your measure.

[halts elevator]

Magnus comes off
like a super hero,

but she's no Girl Scout.

She's full of secrets.

She'll lie to anybody without
any hint of conscience--

- For the right reasons, yes.
- Matter of opinion!

But I'll tell you what's
not up for debate--

She is about to
bring this place down.

And what for? Ego?

Control?
Someone needs to check that.

She has principles.
Google it.

Zimmerman,
you need to be practical.

[restarts elevator]

You can stand around,

you can watch this ship
go down with its captain,

or you can do
what needs to be done--

[Will]: Screw you.

You did a good job here
last month.

You impressed
some very important people.

Agree to act as U.N. liaison
for this place,

and I guarantee you

I can get Sanctuary's mandate
restored

under your management,

but first you got to trust me,

and that means
you stop lying to me

about what happened in Jakarta.

[Magnus]:
Wahid, that's far enough!

[music blasting through earbuds]

[Magnus]: Let us help you.

You came here to capture me.

I came here to draw you out...
so we could talk.

What is your offer, Dr. Magnus?

[Magnus]:
If you stay on the surface,

they will continue
to hunt you

until you're captured or killed.

A lot of other people

will get hurt
in the meantime.

Let us take you home.

My home is gone.

[Magnus]: Your people
are building a new world

beneath the surface.

I can take you to them.
Safely.

You've sent
the Hollow Earth Osama home

to rearm and regroup?

We sent him to safety.

His abilities
are far too broad-reaching

to be safely exploited
by anyone, including you.

You realize
that's a capital crime.

[Will]: Whoa, wait a minute--

[Magnus]: Too late, Will.

You gave him what he needed.

What, do you mean
I told him the truth?

Yes. Because
if we don't start cooperating,

they're going to shut us down.

And if you do what they say,

they hand the reins
to the Sanctuary to you.

Which I never
ever wanted, ever!

[Addison]: Time to start
being reasonable, Dr. Magnus.

Your funding,
your bank accounts,

your access,
I control it all.

Now, you can
close your doors tomorrow,

or you can accept the fact
that as of now,

the Sanctuary Network
is under total supervision

of the U.N. Security Council.

That's right.
I'm your new boss.

[Magnus]:
Get out. Right now.

Take your people with you.
You have 10 minutes.

What the hell are you doing?

[Will]: Magnus...

[Magnus]: You heard me.
Leave my property.

[Addison]: You just signed
the Sanctuary's death warrant.

You sure
that's the right move?

[Magnus]: This is what
you wanted, isn't it?

To force this outcome?

I wanted us to work together.

This entire investigation
has been a charade

to gain you access.

You knew I would never
hand over my records,

my residents, my friends,

to whatever abnormal
Guantanamo Bay you're planning.

I'd sooner
burn it to the ground.

I have given five lifetimes
to this work.

I have seen everyone I love
die for it.

Do you really think
you can begin to take that on?

This is insane.

[laughing in disbelief]

Would you please
talk some sense into her?

[Addison]: Your research
has been bought and paid for

over the years

by the people I work for.

You turn me away now,

you're out in the cold for good.

You come near us again,

and I'll arrange for you
to be eaten.

[Biggie barks softly]

After you.

[Henry]: Wow.
Did that just happen?

I thought it went
rather well, actually.

Wouldn't you agree?

[Will]: Hell, yeah.

Uh, so, no offense,

but you just told
the world's governments

to take a flying leap.

I have money put in places

that Addison
doesn't even know exist.

[Will]: And... there's
something else he doesn't know.

[Henry]: Holy crap,
is that who I think it is?

[Will]: The Crixorum.
We got him.

[Henry]: Um, what kind of
shielding is this?

Can get in our heads
right now?

Something special
I ordered behind your back.

But we do need
to keep him sedated

until we find
a more permanent way

to protect ourselves
from his power.

[Henry]:
How did he get here?

[Will]:
He's been here all week.

[Will]: We knew Addison's men
were on our trail,

and we knew they were going to
make a lot of noise going in.

This was the best chance we had
of getting near him

without, you know,
being "heard."

But he was one step ahead of us.

He'd set up the fake Crixorum
to take the fall for him.

While we were figuring it out,
Addison's men interfered, and...

[Magnus]: I offered
to get him home safely

in exchange for
a peaceful guarantee.

He refused my offer.

[dart snipes]

[Henry]: So why did you
keep it a secret from us?

So we couldn't
blow the punchline.

[Will]: We had to do
whatever we could

to minimize the chances

that Addison would pull
the wrong thread.

[Henry]: So all that stuff
you told him,

was any of it true?

[Magnus]: Oh, most of it.

It's easier
to keep a lie straight

when it's close to the truth.

We had to have layers
to the story,

different scenarios

depending on
when he separated us

and how much he already knew.

[Will]: A guy like that
is never going to be satisfied

with the first thing
he's been told.

He's always going to assume
he's being played.

The one thing we had
in our favor

was that he also assumed

he was the best player
in the room.

Give him something
to figure out--

[Will]: Well,
in our case, three things--

[Magnus]:
And let him think he's won.

So if he even tries
to look for the Crixorum,

he'll be looking
in Hollow Earth.

Good luck with that.

[Henry]: Huh.

It's vital that
he and his superiors think

that cutting off the Sanctuary
was their idea.

Wait a second,
you wanted that to happen?

[Magnus]: It had to.

The Sanctuary needs its freedom.

This was the best way to get it.

[Will]: If we're down,

they're not going to
come after us in full force,

at least not for a while.

[Magnus]: Now, Addison was right
about one thing.

The Crixorum is a vital
piece of the puzzle.

Quite possibly,
he's the key to it all.

I want that leverage right here.

We're going to need to fortify
our defenses, aren't we?

Very much so, my friend.

[Magnus]: I'm afraid
the catalyst for the problems

is the pregnancy.

Your body's producing
defensive enzymes,

likely as a result of
the suppressive hormones

you were taking
for so long.

[Erika]: So, what does
that mean...for us?

There is a procedure
I can offer

that will slow
the embryo's growth.

I believe your body
will be able to tolerate

the pregnancy hormones

at a slower release rate.

And...the-the baby?

It's not without risk,

but if things go as I expect,
you'll have a healthy child.

It will just take
a little longer than usual,

if... if that's what you want.

[Henry]: We do. We want this.

All right, then.

A word?

You've got some big
decisions to make, Henry.

Well, we just made
the biggest one.

She's going to be okay, right?

She'll get
the best possible care.

But, Henry, not here.

The Sanctuary's headed
into uncharted waters.

It's no place for a baby.

[Henry]: I can't just
leave you guys. You need me.

[Magnus]: I support
whatever decision you make.

Fortunately,
you'll have a lot of time

to consider your options.

This procedure should change
Erika's gestation rate

from ten and half months
to possibly 22.

[Henry]: Okay, whoa,
that's good news.

Wait, she's going to be
like this for two years?

Um...

[Will]: I know we planned
this outcome,

but it's a big risk.

Are you absolutely sure
that this is the right move?

I've had more than a century
to think about it, Will.

When you're forced
onto the sidelines,

you see things
from another perspective.

I made a lot of choices
in my life,

some of them in haste.

This was my chance
to rethink the road I was on,

rethink what the Sanctuary
needs to be.

A hundred years
of planning your next move,

and having to sit on your hands
the whole time?

You couldn't wait to sink
your teeth into Addison,

could you?

He's not the problem.

I've allowed us
to become part of a system

that we can't control.

There are changes coming
that the world is not ready for.

So from now on...
we make our own rules.

[???]

Didn't hurt.
