Terra Nova (2011): Season 1, Episode 1 - Genesis: Part 1 - full transcript

Hey, Dad. Hey, Buddy.

What's in the bag? Uh-uh.

What is it? Come
on. What's in the bag?

No way. Where'd you get it?

ELISABETH: Get what?

Dad scored an orange.

No. From where?

I can't even remember the
last time I saw one of those.

Hey, look, Zoe.

Hey, Zoe. JOSH: I
can peel it for her.

Hi. How was your day? Hi.



Missed you. How was yours?

Not great actually. Three more
patients with pulmo-replasia.

One was a seven-year-old boy,
he could hardly breathe on his own.

It's getting worse
and worse out there.

Even a rebreather
isn't enough anymore.

You got a little on your nose.

(LAUGHS)

JOSH: Cool, huh?
Juice. (ZOE MUTTERS)

They're coming. I was
downstairs and I saw them.

They're on their way now.

Zoe, baby, it's time to
play hideaway, okay?

Come on. Climb
in there for Mommy.

Okay. Everything's
going to be okay.

(BANGING ON DOOR)



(ZOE CRYING)

Okay. I love you.

(BANGING CONTINUES)

Population Control.

You're being investigated
for a possible violation.

Oh, no. There, there must be
some mistake. I'm a cop, too.

Hey.

I need you to step outside so
we can search the premises.

Okay. Let's go. Come on, guys.

It's okay.

Hey! Be careful with that!

ZOE: No.

Hold it!

ZOE: Mommy?

Mommy?

Come on. Come here. I'm
not playing around. Come on.

Leave her alone!
Don't touch her!

Jim! Dad!

Dad!

Mommy!

Stay back!

Mom! Stop it!

(SCREAMS)

Stop! Stop it!

(ZOE WAILING)

See, now you shouldn't
have done that, pal.

Shannon.

You paid for five minutes.

Oh, my God, Jim.

Elisabeth. Jim.

Hey.

(WHIMPERS)

Look at you.

(COUGHING)

Who are they, just prisoners,

so there's no need to
filter the air, is that it?

Don't worry about me.
I'm holding on okay.

What are you doing
here? Are the kids all right?

Yeah, they're good. But, Jim...

I've been contacted by the
recruitment people for Terra Nova.

Terra Nova? That's
incredible news.

When?

The Tenth Pilgrimage is
scheduled to leave next week.

Oh, my God, Liz, you gotta go. You
gotta take the kids, and you gotta go.

Jim.

It's a chance at a new
life. Don't pass it up...

No, you don't understand.
They're not gonna let me take Zoe.

Why?

They said we can't be
rewarded for breaking the law.

So it's me and Maddy
and Josh, or it's nothing.

No. (STAMMERING) There's
gotta be some way around this.

There is.

Time's up. Someone's coming.

Okay. Jim, I'm counting on you.

GUARD: We need to go, now! Okay.

Just let me give him this, okay?

Please. It's the
air. It's killing him.

Fine.

Take that, take care
of yourself, okay. Okay?

NEWSCASTER: Terra
Nova, the New World,

a name everyone, everywhere, has
come to know as a symbol of hope.

Twenty-two years have passed
since scientists first realized

that some of their experiments
uncovered an unexpected phenomenon.

Physicists characterized
this anomaly

as a fracture in the
fabric of time and space.

You said he'd be on this train.

He'll be here, Maddy.

Just keep your voice down. I
got it all planned out. Don't worry.

Yeah. Step one: Dad breaks
out of a maximum security facility.

Step two: Dad breaks into a
maximum security facility. Piece of cake.

MAN: Next in line, please.

Doctor Elisabeth Shannon.

WOMAN: Transferring
with two children?

That's right.

(GASPING IN PAIN)

NEWSCASTER: The
latest word on the departure

is that the Tenth Pilgrimage
will depart for Terra Nova

in just an hour from now...

This will raise the total number
of colonists to Terra Nova to...

(BLEEPS)

MAN 1: Okay.
Next in line, please.

Thank you.

MAN 2 ON PA: If you are
wearing a red security badge,

please report to the
departure platform.

If you are wearing
a red security badge,

please report to the
departure platform.

I love you. I miss you already.

I'm gonna figure out
a way to get you there.

Even if I have to come
back here and get you myself.

It's a one way trip, Josh.
There's no way back.

WOMAN 1 ON PA:
Final call has commenced.

Please proceed immediately
to the departure platform.

Go. Live a wonderful life.

I love you.

WOMAN 2 ON PA: Please
remove your rebreathers

and place them in
the bins provided.

Your rebreathers
will not be required.

Launch platform is straight
down that corridor. Hurry.

MAN 3 ON PA: Attention,
Phase Two sequence has begun.

Attention, Phase Two
sequence has begun.

(BANGING ON DOOR)

CHYRON: You're
late. Where is it?

The money first.

Where is it?

Remember, if you get
caught, you're on your own.

MAN 3 ON PA: Portal dilation will
commence in T-minus five minutes.

Come on, Jim, where are you?

If Dad doesn't make it,
do we still have to go?

He'll make it. He has to.

ENGINEER 1: Event
horizon is at point-six microns,

point seven, holding
at point seven.

ENGINEER 2: Standing
by to initiate portal dilation.

Initiate portal dilation.

WOMAN ON PA: Your
bodies will not be accustomed

to the oxygen-rich atmosphere.

Please take short, even breaths.

Medical assistance
and care will be on hand.

Receiving portal
is synchronized.

Sir, you need to
have a look at this.

Get me security.

WOMAN ON PA: Disorientation
is expected while transferring.

Your eyes will not be
accustomed to the bright sunlight.

Medical care will be on
hand to provide assistance.

I'm telling you, he's not gonna
show. Something went wrong.

Mom.

Oh, Jim! Thank God!

Dad!

Okay, okay. Easy,
don't call attention.

Perimeter breach suspected...

Jim, what?

Take the pack.

Whatever happens,
keep moving. Go. Go!

Sir, I need you
to step out of line.

You were seen
leaving a restricted area.

Oh, sorry. I took a wrong turn.

Mom. We have to keep going.

If we go in there,
we can't come back.

We will be right behind you.

Go.

Oh, I've already
been through security.

I need to check your
pack and do a retinal scan.

I told you, I've
already been cleared.

No, I won't go without Dad!

Go with your brother. Mom.

It's okay, I'm gonna be
right behind you, Maddy.

Dad?

He'll find a way. Okay?

He always does. Now, go!

You go.

I love you.

This is ridiculous. You
must've made a mistake.

Sir, I need to know why
you were in a restricted area.

Sir, you're gonna have
to come with me, now.

Hey, stop that man!
Someone stop him! Stop him!

(GRUNTS)

Back up! Back up! Let's go!

(GASPING)

He's going into hyper-oxic
shock. CO2 infuser! Now!

Dad!

Gun!

Get away from my family!

Put it down! Put it down!

Check their packs
for more weapons.

No!

No!

You heard right, two stowaways.

Adult male and a
five-year-old girl.

MAN: Copy that,
Lieutenant Washington.

Tell Commander Taylor
we're headed back now.

ELISABETH: So, how much
trouble do you think we're in?

JIM: Well, you were recruited.

I mean, they need you too
much not to cut you some slack.

Me?

(SNORTS)

You think they'll make
you serve out your time?

Well, I hope not.

I'm not scheduled to be released
for another 85 million years.

Are those clouds?

Yeah, sweetie. They are.

ZOE: They're so white.

Hey, Zoe, I know I
was gone a long time,

but you remember me, right?

(EXPLOSION)

(LOUD ROARING)

Allosaur tripped a sonic
mine. Just keep moving.

Allosaur, that the
carnivorous kind?

Yup.

I hope we're getting close.

(HORN HONKS)

MAN: Welcome to Terra Nova.

Welcome!

Citizens of 2149.

I'm Commander Nathaniel Taylor.

But you probably
already know that.

Congratulations.

Each one of you
has taken a first step

just as I did seven years
ago, toward a new beginning.

Together,

we are at the dawn
of a new civilization.

No pressure.

(ALL CHUCKLE)

The world you left
behind fell victim

to some of the baser
instincts of our species:

greed, war, ignorance.

We blew it. We
destroyed our home.

But we have been entrusted
with a second chance.

A chance to start over.

A chance to get it right.

Welcome to Terra Nova,
folks. Welcome home.

Taylor wants to see
you, without the children.

Okay.

We'll be right back, sweetheart.

We'll be right back.

Doctor Elisabeth Shannon, first
in your class at Northwestern Med.

Doctor of Science in
Immunology, Bacteriology

and a couple of other
"ologies" I can't even pronounce.

Two years pro-bono trauma work

at "I Help the Poor
People General."

Commander Taylor...
What I don't get is,

it also says here,
that your husband

is currently serving a
six-year bit at Golad lock-away.

And yet, here he is,
with a third child in tow.

What am I to make of this?

Look...

This was all my idea, okay?
Elisabeth didn't even know.

Didn't she?

A man doesn't escape from
Golad without help from the outside.

Um...

They weren't gonna let us bring
Zoe. There was no other choice.

Law caps families at two kids.
You had a third, you got caught,

and you took the
fall. The thing is this:

I really don't care about
population laws from another time.

What I do care about
is whether or not

an individual is of
use to this colony.

A doctor, we need.

An escaped
fugitive, not so much.

Commander Taylor, all we're
looking for here is a fresh start.

We just want to
be a family again.

Well, Doctor Shannon, we
are pleased to have you here.

Lieutenant Washington
will show you to your kids.

I'm gonna have a private
word with your husband.

Now it also says here that you
were a cop before you went away.

Narcotics. Chicago PD.

I don't understand.

A man sworn to uphold the law.

A woman as
accomplished as your wife.

And you decide to have a
third kid, to risk everything. Why?

It seemed like a
good idea at the time.

You thought that
was a good idea?

That you'd actually
get away with it?

Good grief, son, what
were you thinking?

What's between me and my wife
is none of your damn business.

Now, are you gonna
lock me up or what?

What I ought to do is
throw you outside the fence

and let you fend for yourself.

No, what you ought to do is
give me a gun and a badge

and let me do what I'm good at.

There must be some bad guys
around here that need catching.

Agricultural detail
is down a man.

That's all.

According to my daughter,

I have whatever the
opposite of a green thumb is.

But I'll do my best.

ELISABETH: Agricultural duty.

You can make that work, right?

It beats making license plates.

Your quarters are here in the
newer part of the settlement.

There's a PX down
that way for supplies.

Some of these units
aren't quite finished.

I don't even think yours
has been painted yet.

Here we are.

This is ours?

If you need anything,
just let us know.

This is it. Come on.

I get the room with
the most windows.

I get first pick.

MADDY: Says who?

JOSH: I'm the oldest.

MADDY: Oh, man! They
gave us the M-7 model.

ELISABETH: It's not bad, right?

Throw some paint on the
walls. Get a rug or something.

Do they have rugs here?

Maybe a nice,
sort of, dino-runner

would be great down the hallway.

I don't know.

Jim?

We did the right thing,
didn't we? Coming here?

Mommy? There's no room for me.

(ELISABETH AND JIM LAUGH)

We'll figure
something out, sweetie.

She doesn't know me.

The last time you saw
her, she was barely three.

So, we need to find a bed for,
oh, what's your name again?

Oh, that's right, Martha?

Okay, so, we need... Oh,
oh, right, right, right, Priscilla.

Not Priscilla, huh?

Oh, wait. I got it.

It's Zoe. Yeah.

Well, hi, Zoe. My
name is Alfredo.

It's a pleasure to
meet you. What?

No, it's not.

Well, what is it?

Daddy.

MADDY: Okay. So it's settled.

Me and Zoe get this
room, seeing as it's bigger.

And, we can squeeze
another bed in.

Can I see? Yeah.

One big happy family.
Like nothing ever happened.

What's that supposed to mean?

I guess we're supposed to
just forget about the last years

we had to fend for ourselves
'cause Dad was in jail.

Josh! That's enough!

Admit it, Mom. It's
his own damn fault!

If he hadn't lost his cool and
thrown a punch at that cop,

he might've just
gotten away with a fine.

Have you ever
thought about that?

Hey! We're not gonna stand here
and argue the past with you, okay.

We're starting over,

as a family.

MADDY: Zoe? Has anybody
seen Zoe? Where'd she go?

I thought she was with you?

She was. Zoe?

Zoe? Zoe.

(CRUNCHING)

(LOW GRUNTING)

(LOUD SNUFFLE)

Zoe!

(INSECTS CHIRPING)

Good night, sweetheart.

I'm really glad
you're home, Dad.

Good night.

Good night.

Yep.

She got used to
sleeping in my room.

And it seems we've
run out of beds.

Luckily, there's a couch.

Right.

The answer's yes.

We did do the right
thing, coming here.

You're telling me this is all we
can have for the next three days?

Did you not read any of
the literature they gave us?

Real food has all these enzymes
our bodies aren't used to yet.

And besides, it's
really not that bad.

I don't want to go to
orientation. I wanna stay with you.

Mommy has a brand-new
job she has to go to.

And Maddy and Josh are
going to go to orientation,

so you can go with them, okay.

You guys used up all
the hot water. Thanks.

No. The solar panels can
only heat up so much at a time.

Blame it on the sun if you want.

Agricultural Department, a
quarter mile that way, Dad.

Wait, that way? And the
clinic should be right here.

Are you sure? All
right, I better go.

That's... Okay,
have a good time.

Okay, now, you, no
more wandering off, okay.

Okay, so see you
when you're done.

Yeah.

Have fun! Bye.

MADDY: Okay, so, we should be
meeting at the south end. Come on.

No way. I can't believe it!

Can't believe what? What is it?

You've got to be
joking. It's the probe!

You know, the one
they sent through

when they first discovered
the time fracture.

How can you not know that?

I was having a life, Maddy.

No one knew at first how
far back the fracture went,

or even where it led to.

They sent this back
with a beacon inside,

so that, you know,
they could find it.

However, many millions of
years later, only they never did.

Huh?

That's how they knew that they
were dealing with a new time stream.

Whatever, Maddy. Whatever?

Okay, Josh, you do realize that if
we were in the same time stream,

then, something
like, I don't know,

just stepping on a butterfly
could change everything.

Like for example,
us never being born.

Can I scratch my name
on it like everybody else's?

Yeah, go ahead, Zoe. Mark
it up. Okay. I'm out of here.

Where you going?

To get some real
food. I'm starving.

What about orientation?

I can explore on my own, Maddy.

Josh? Look after Zoe.

(SCOFFS)

Let's keep it simple.

Why don't you give us a
hand with some weeding.

Weeding? Yeah. I
think I can handle that.

Good.

You know, this place
needs a whole lot of upkeep.

I'll leave you to it.

Okay.

Whoa!

(GROANS)

I'm okay. I'm okay. It
was just a bug. No worries.

Just a bug.

Yes!

Thanks.

(GIRL LAUGHING)

What, this is funny to you?

That's how you get off,

making fun of the new
guy trying to eat fruit?

Here, give it to me.

Go ahead.

Oh!

You get used to it. I promise.

Yeah. I'll take
your word for it.

Hey, what's your name?

Josh.

I'm Skye. Fifth Pilgrimage.

So you're a recruit or lottery?

My mom was recruited,
so we all had to come.

Most people count
themselves lucky.

You left somebody behind, huh?

So, what's there to do
around here, anyway?

Well, depends on how close
to the edge you like to walk.

Okay, bed one sedated
and his wound's sutured.

Great.

WOMAN: Nurse, a
hand over here, please.

If you get a sec, could you
check bed three's oxygen?

Hi. I'm Doctor Shannon.

Okay. So, you
came in complaining

of nausea and a headache, right?

The other doctor said I was
hyper-oxic. Whatever that means.

It means you're not
used to so much fresh air.

(GROANING)

Can you unhook me, please?

They said it'll only
take a half hour,

and it's been at least
that long already.

Yeah. I don't see
an IV anywhere.

Whoa!

Whoa? Is that a technical term?

Sorry. Interesting.

They must get rid of the
excess oxygen from the blood.

Can you just get it off me?

Yeah, let me just...

Hang on.

(GROANING)

There we go. All better.

Josh? Dad?

You're supposed to be at
orientation! What are you doing?

Josh, this is not how
you start your first day.

Would you excuse my son, please?

There's somewhere
he needs to be.

Let's go. Come on.

Hey! I told you... You
can't just come back

after all this time and
start telling me what to do!

Let's go.

So how bad are things in 2149?

It's funny. When it's
the only thing you know,

it all seems so normal.

But coming here makes you
realize how bad things have gotten.

I don't really remember much.
I was just a kid when we left.

Oh, this is my place here.

Hey, guys, This
is Josh. He's new.

Welcome to Terra Nova,
I'm Tasha. That's Hunter.

How you doing, fresh?

So far, so good.

So, this is all
your guys' place?

Yeah. Us and one other, Max.

And your parents?

Mine live just up that way. Why?

I mean, it's your own place.
Aren't you only, like, 16?

So? I mean, we
work. We have jobs.

Yeah, this is the frontier.
You gotta grow up quick.

Yeah, you got the whole, "Taylor
welcome speech," didn't you?

We're the new
dawn of civilization.

HUNTER: How was the
office, sweetheart? Not bad.

We finished another
hydro-turbine today.

Who's the fresh? Name is Josh.

Max. Glad to meet you.

It's so hot. Who's up
for a little OTG? Yes.

TASHA: On foot? No way.

Well, guess who started
repair-dock duty this week?

Great. Okay.

We'll meet you guys
in the usual spot, in 20?

Yeah.

OTG on your first day. I
mean, that's gotta be a record.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

To us.

We actually made it.

I had my doubts
for a minute there.

Mmm.

(LAUGHS)

Wow.

So, how's your day going?

Well, I practiced some
neo-medieval medicine.

And I tended to a thief.

A thief? Mmm.

That's what they told me. Why?

Well, it's just, why would
anyone steal anything here?

Everyone's pretty
much provided for.

Who knows. But, guess what?

What?

It's not your problem.

You're not a cop anymore.

So, what's this about
Josh skipping orientation?

(SIGHS)

I don't know. He
just blew it off.

I mean, I can't say
I'm surprised. But...

I know. I can't say I am either.

You know what, we
shouldn't be too hard on him.

He's been through a lot.

We all have. That doesn't excuse
him getting out of line with me.

He really missed
you. You know that?

Just give him some time,
okay. He'll come around.

I just worry about
him, that's all.

He has this knack
for finding trouble.

Where we going? Stay close.

Okay?

You don't have to
come if you don't want to.

Out there? You're
kidding, right?

The only way to find
out is to come with.

There. No big deal.

You coming or not?

HUNTER: Skye!
Come here. Come on.

We were about to
leave without you.

Yeah, the hell you were, Hunter.

Get ready to go OTG, fresh.

OTG?

"Outside the gates."

SKYE: Who's up
for the short cut?

HUNTER: No way,
Skye. We'll meet you there.

Keep up!

I'm trying.

(HIGH-PITCHED SCREECHING)

It's just a howler. It sounds
lot worse than they actually are.

What, are you just gonna
stand there and watch?

(YELLING)

(SCREECHING)

(YELLING)

You think that was fun? You
wanna see something really cool?

Cooler than that? Sure.

Great, come on.

This way.

Check it out.

Found it when we were exploring.

There's more over there.

What is it? Looks like some
kind of geometry or something.

SKYE: I think they're
equations, but I can't be sure.

I can't make
heads or tails of it.

Well, who did this?

I don't know. And why
do it on a bunch of rocks?

It doesn't make any sense. It
looks like it's been here for a while.

Did you tell Taylor
about this place?

No, we're not even
supposed to be out here.

This whole area's off limits.

It's like Taylor doesn't want
anyone to know about this.

Um...

Don't tell anybody
about this, all right?

You promise?

Good.

What was he stealing that
made it necessary to shoot him?

Him and his buddies were
siphoning off our power grid.

Why would they need to do that?

They're Sixers.

Sixers?

(GASPING)

Slide your weapon
across the floor.

Now!

CHANG: So, basically,
Calysonias is real finicky.

So you gotta keep the
nitrogen level just so,

otherwise the
roots get hydroxic.

"Hydroxic"? Right.

Right. So, what
you need to do is,

you need to stick this
into the root of the plant,

and then, you need
to record it on here.

Okay.

Are, are you listening?

Now, like I was saying, once
you get it on there, into the plant,

and then you record it here.

Yeah. Yeah know,
I'm gonna be right back.

And, we're gonna do
more stuff with the thing.

Right. Hydroxic.

Hydroxic.

Hope Plaza says
they wanna put through

more than 100 people next time.

That's a lot of housing
units and not a lot of time.

Suspend work on the southeast,

we'll focus on the
western quadrant.

Get down, Taylor! Down!

(GRUNTS)

Throw him in the brig.
I'll deal with him later.

You wanna tell me who that was
and what the hell's going on here?

Come on, let's take a drive.

There's a lot about this
place you need to know.

MADDY: The school
was nice, didn't you think?

You know, a playground where
you don't have to wear a rebreather.

I want to feed the
dinosaurs again.

You do, huh? It's probably
not a good idea though,

'cause, if they get too full,
then they get really sleepy,

and it's really noisy
when the dinosaurs snore.

Well, actually, brachiosauri
aren't really true herbivores,

they sometimes supplement
their diets with smaller reptiles.

Which is why they had
proto-lateral incisors.

Two sets. Upper and lower.

Okay.

I'll see you guys later. Yeah.

Kill me now.

You can't build civilization
in a day, Shannon.

There are bound to be a few
setbacks. We've had our share.

Yeah, like what?

That fella who tried
to put a bullet in me.

He's part of another settlement

that split away from Terra Nova.

Around here, people
call them Sixers.

They call them that 'cause they all
came through on the Sixth Pilgrimage.

At first they seemed
just like the rest of us.

But, pretty soon we
began noticing some things.

Like how curious they were
about camp security procedures.

By the time we found the cache of
contraband weapons, it was clear.

They had an agenda.

What agenda? Who sent them?

Believe me, many nights I've
asked myself the same thing.

Long story short, they caught
on that we caught onto them.

And they high-tailed it,
like thieves in the night.

Pilfered a significant amount
of equipment, and weapons.

Maybe they gamed
the lottery somehow.

The thought has occurred to me.

What did Hope Plaza
have to say about all of this?

What makes you
think I asked them?

Until we know who sent
those people back and why,

I just don't know who
in the future I can trust.

This is what we're
fighting for, Jim.

A new beginning, for all of us.

If today's shown me anything,

it's shown me that you've got what it
takes to be part of my security team

here in Terra Nova.

You asked me for
a badge and a gun.

They're yours if you want them.

Welcome aboard, Shannon.

What is it? What?

Taylor to base.

Got a pair of transports inbound.
And they're coming in hot.

Who are they? Sixers.

Things are about to get ugly.

Taylor to Base. You got
a visual on those Sixers?

GUZMAN: We see them. But we
got a work crew outside the gates.

We need time to get them inside.

TAYLOR: I'll try
and slow them down.

But get everybody
inside as soon as you can.

Over there! Two o'clock!

Whoa! Look out! (GUNS FIRING)

What are they firing
at? 'Cause it's not us.

(ROARING)

What the hell is that?

A carnotaurus. I
hate carnotaurus.

We're all clear!

(SCREAMING)

What's going on back there?

Just keep, driving!

Situation's changed.
We've got carnos out here.

Get everyone inside. We'll
deal with the Sixers later.

(ALARM BLARING)

We're almost there but
you got to buy us more time.

Hey, keep those people
back. We got Sixers coming in!

Take the wheel! What?

Take the wheel!

Okay. Okay.

Hey! Hey, look at me
you ugly bastard! This way!

Mom, what's happening?

Come here. Stay down.

(GUNFIRE)

(ROARING)

Come on. Come on.

(ROARING)

What are you waiting for?

Sonics! Go!

(BUZZING)

(ROARS)

TAYLOR: Back away! Get back!

Hello, Taylor.

What are you doing here, Mira?

This is no way to treat company.

Have your men
lower their weapons.

You first.

You're outnumbered.

Then what are you so afraid of?

You came here for a reason.

You've got one of my people.

Carter got shot, while he was
trying to siphon power off our grid.

We know he's alive
and in your brig.

You know this how?

Maybe we still have a few
friends here in Terra Nova.

Well, maybe I'll have
a sit-down with Carter,

have a little chat
about your friends.

We want Carter,
you son of a bitch!

Put your weapon down, now!

MEN: Put it down!
Put the weapon down!

(MEN SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY)

Enough!

Stand down!

(SHOUTING STOPS)

A trade.

What is that?

Meteoric iron.

They control the quarry.

I want Carter, medical
supplies and ammo.

You can have your man.
You can have the meds.

No ammo. No way.

Can't blame a girl for trying.

Guzman, get
Carter out of the brig.

Have Medical put
together some supplies.

You're new.

Welcome to paradise.

Dad.

You guys okay?

Yeah.

How'd you get yourself caught
up in the middle of all that?

Taylor asked me
to join Security.

So, you're gonna be a cop again?

Doctor Shannon, we could
use a hand over in the infirmary.

It's all right. Go.

I'll take the girls
back to the house.

Come on. It's okay.

ZOE: That wasn't a
very nice dinosaur.

MADDY: No, he wasn't, was he?

Is he gonna come back?

You don't have to
worry about him, okay?

You're safe here.

I wanna go home.

Oh! You wanna go home, huh?

Uh-huh

I know what you mean.

It's all the sunshine,
isn't it? It's way too bright.

And the fresh air. Boy, does
that ever get on my nerves.

And what's with all
these flowers here,

I mean, there's too much color.

And they're smelling
up the place...

Daddy.

Come here, you are
home, sweetie. We all are.

MAX: I'm telling you, Skye.

We're close, Max. Trust me.

JOSH: I thought you said
you came out here all the time?

HUNTER: Yeah, well, it's been over
a week. Okay. The jungle grows fast.

JOSH: Oh, yeah. SKYE: Here.

Here we go.

How'd we do?

We could use a couple more
days maybe, but... Well, it's not bad.

Hey, have a taste.

(GROANS)

(COUGHING)

That is moonshine.

Cretaceous-style.

What is it made from?

We call them fruts.

You know, as in
part fruit, part nut.

Looks like we need a re-stock.

All right, well, why don't you
guys go grab us some fresh ones.

And Josh and I will
start cutting. Let's do that.

GUZMAN: Why give Mira the meds?

All we're doing is making it
more difficult to beat them.

Look, Guz, we need
the ore. You know that.

Doc?

That's enough iso-biotics.
I don't want us to run short.

Look, I'm sorry you got tangled
up in that situation before.

Security should've been
more careful with the prisoner.

It wouldn't be the first time a
patient's pulled a knife on me.

Considering you put in time
at a state hospital, I expect so.

Doctor Shannon, I'm curious,

with your resume, as
accomplished as you are,

you could've had it
pretty good back there.

I mean, money and connections,
you can buy a pretty good life.

Maybe even one of those
houses in one of the domes.

Still, you chose to
come here. Why?

Well, yeah, believe me,

I've had plenty of colleagues
who've gone down that route.

Eking what they can from a
world that's on its last breath.

But I didn't want
that for my children.

I mean, I know life here is gonna present
a lot of challenges, to say the least.

But I think they deserve the
chance to be part of something real.

Something new.

Something that has a future.

I understand.

I felt the same way about
getting my own boy here.

I didn't know you had a son.

Came in on the
Second Pilgrimage.

Worked right here in
the Science Division.

He went missing
a few years back.

I'm so sorry.

Well, there's always the hope.

I haven't given up on him.

Doctor Shannon, it's
good to have you here.

I think you're
gonna do just fine.

Can I just ask you to, please,
to be careful with my husband.

You asking him to be on your security
team, that is between you and him.

But you know, (SIGHS) I'm the
one who stays up late worrying.

I'll make sure he
gets home to you.

What is this?

Oh. It's the barb
from a slasher-tail.

The males all have them.

It's sharp.

Yeah. You should
see their teeth.

Don't worry. They
mostly hunt at night.

(CHUCKLES) Yeah.

Mostly?

No, thanks.

Hey, I'm sorry about
what happened back there.

The whole thing with my dad.

You two don't get along?

(SIGHS) We're just
really different, that's all.

I mean, he can go from zero
to infinity, in no second flat.

You saw how bent
out of shape he got.

"That's not how you
start your first day, Josh."

"Oh, excuse me, miss, my
son has somewhere to be."

He's lecturing me about rules.

He broke every rule in
the book just to get here.

Wait, no, he's like, the kind of guy
who would show up in a new place,

and he's like, "Oh, I'm
gonna ditch orientation"

"and go for a swim with a
bunch of people I barely know."

Right?

Yeah. You guys
are pretty different.

Pretty different.

(LAUGHS)

You're bleeding again.

Let me see.

Look, I know things haven't
gone exactly like we planned.

It's all about to change.

ALVAREZ ON RADIO:
Delta One, can you read me?

Delta One, can you read me?

Go ahead, Delta Two.

We spotted a vacated
TN transport. Looks ripe.

MIRA: Grab the power
supplies and any ammo you find.

But move fast,
they can't be too far.

(TWIGS SNAPPING)

(ANIMAL SNUFFING)

(GRUNTING)

This power cell's jammed.

Hurry it up already.

What's with you?

I thought I heard something.

You're always hearing things.

(RUSTLING)

Got it.

Let's get out of here.

(GRUNTS)

(LOUD SCREECH)

What was that?

Probably just a howler.

Yeah, a howler.

You know, it's getting
late. We should go.

You wanted to see me?

Shannon, come on in.

We've got a situation here.

One of our rovers went missing.

Surveillance picked this up.

A couple of our kids
sneaking outside the perimeter.

Josh.

We've been trying to reach the rover
over the comm for the past half hour.

No response.

Night is falling.

If we don't get to them pretty
quick, something else might.

Why in heaven's name would
he do something like that?

She must've talked him into it.

So, I'm gonna go
with the search party.

"She"? Who's "she"?

That girl he met when
he skipped orientation.

I told him to go back
but he wouldn't listen.

Okay, I'm going with you.

No, you're not.
It's too dangerous.

Jim, our son is out there!

Yeah, let me handle it!

No, you handling it is why
he's out there in the first place.

Elisabeth?

Stay here. Watch your sister.

Dad, I'm...

It's okay, everything's
gonna be okay.

I promise.

Damn it! It's stripped.
The power cells are gone.

This transport's dead.

Okay. Well, then we
have to call somebody.

We have to tell them
that we're out here.

Did you hear what he said? It's
dead. That means there is no radio.

It's too far to walk. We'll
never make it back before dark.

Oh, God. What's that?

That's a Sixer vehicle.

What's a Sixer?

Wait, where you going?

Get our stuff back.

Skye, no. I'm not
going over there.

You can't trust a Sixer.

SKYE: Whatever,
Tash, I'll handle them.

Hello?

We're not armed.
Just wanna talk.

Hey, we're stuck out here
without those power cells.

Skye. Look, blood.

Yo, guys, I got them.
The cells are all here.

(SCREECHING)

Slasher! Run! Go! Go! Go!

What is it? Slasher! Just run.

Get away from me!

Come on, man. Let us in, please.

Hey, I remember you.
You're Drake. Right?

It's me, Skye.

Skye?

All right, get in.

Come on. Get in.

Let's go! Get in.
Come on! Go! Hurry!

Max, get this thing started!

Well, it's got an
alpha-num keypunch,

so, unless I know
the code then...

Okay, pop the
panel, get it started.

I can't. The rig's
booby trapped.

Hey, Drake, hey, how do
you get this thing started?

It's dead. The power converter
got crushed by a slasher-tail.

TASHA: Oh, my God.

He's really bleeding a lot.

Hey, your mom's a doctor, right?

Found weapons!

SKYE: Tie this around
his leg above the wound,

as tight as you can.

If you make it through this,
you won't be a fresh anymore.

DRAKE: Oh, my God!

TASHA: Oh, my God!

(SCREECHING CONTINUES)

Last known location
is the outer market

two klicks down
the south east road.

We're gonna head
in that direction

and start scanning
for heat signature.

Hunter Boyce is missing.
And Max Pope, too.

And another one. Who?

My daughter.

Tasha?

Weapons and ammo
are in the vehicle.

You'll need a medic.

No. Both parents,
dangerous situation.

Bad idea. Sorry, Jim.

No, I'm going.

TAYLOR: No time for squabbles.

Both of you ride with me!

Move out, people!

Most people know I was the
first man through the portal.

What people don't know is that the
men who came through behind me,

well, they didn't show
up on this end right away.

For them it was just the blink
of an eye. For me, 118 days.

Look, I know you're scared for your
boy. You have every reason to be.

But the point is, this
jungle can be survived.

(SCREECHING)

Why does it keep
making that sound?

Oh, God! There's another one.

Slashers hunt in packs.

They corner their prey
and signals the others.

Before long there'll be dozens.

TASHA: We're stuck in
here! We're trapped, okay!

What about the radio? Can we
get it to work without the converter?

The comm won't work.

But Alvarez might have
a portable one in his pack.

On the floor.
Hunter, get it out!

In that bag.

Got it.

If anybody can hear
this, Terra Nova, come in!

(STATIC)

We're going in circles.

No, we're establishing
a search grid.

Well, what if they're
outside the grid?

Then we expand it.

HUNTER: Anybody hear this? We
need help. Come in. Terra Nova...

Copy that, this is Tango
November One. Identify yourself.

Commander Taylor!
This is Hunter Boyce.

We're stuck in a rover
outside the perimeter.

Is your rover
operational, Hunter?

Sixers jacked our power cells.

(CRASHING)

(ALL SCREAMING)

Hunter do you copy? Slasher? Say
that again. Say it again, about slasher.

(GUN FIRING)

Conserve your
ammo. Short bursts.

Got it!

Hunter, say again
about slashers.

Three, maybe more.

We're about 80 meters...

Eighty meters?

I said we're about
80 meters east...

East of what?

TASHA: Oh, my God. Where is it?

HUNTER: Josh, grab the radio!

I got it. I got it.

Hello, are you still there?
We're about 80 kilometers east...

That's Josh. Josh?

Josh, it's your dad. Could
not copy last transmission.

Please repeat.

Dad? Is that you?

Do you copy,
Josh? Please repeat.

(STATIC)

Josh?

SKYE: Out of the way!

JOSH: My side's clear.

Mine, too.

JOSH: You think they left?

Don't assume
anything with slashers.

Our gunfire drove
them away for now,

but they'll regroup
and come back.

TASHA: No, we should make
a run for it while we still can.

Make a run for what? Terra Nova!

That's like five klicks away.
Tash, we'd never make it.

We have weapons, and anything
is better than being sitting ducks!

And we don't know how
many of them are out there,

and we have limited ammunition.

Hey, I may be a "fresh,"

but, I mean, Commander
Taylor got our distress call.

Commander Taylor
knows we're in trouble.

We just gotta hold on a little
while longer for him to get here.

It could take them
hours to find us!

We have enough ammo to hold off
those slashers a little while longer.

We can make it. TASHA:
My God! He doesn't even know

what he's talking
about! SKYE: Tasha...

They can smell his blood!
They're gonna come back!

Calm down!

We're not gonna make it.

Tasha!

Tasha!

Tasha! Stop it!

It's suicide!

(KNOCKING AT DOOR)

Hi. Hey.

What are you doing here?

Well, with everything going on,

I wanted to make
sure you were okay.

Yeah. You know,
we're okay, considering.

We haven't heard back
from the search team yet,

but, shouldn't be long though, I'm
sure your brother's gonna to be okay.

If you need anything, just...

Don't go.

Zoe's scared.

Right, Zoe?

This is Tango November. I
have all frequencies open.

Hunter, do you copy?

Josh Shannon, do you copy?
This is Commander Taylor.

Just keep heading east. I think
that's where the signal originated.

With all this technology,
shouldn't they know?

Elisabeth... Anywhere
else we would know.

But this is some
dense jungle out here.

Watch out!

Oh, God!

What's her name?

It's Tasha.

Okay, Tasha, can you hear me?

I'm a doctor, okay.

I'm right here. It's me,
Dad. I'm right here, honey.

I need you to apply pressure
to this wound. Dig it in.

Tasha, you stay with me, okay?

Slashers came, fired the gun.

Can you tell me
where the others are?

TASHA: No.

ELISABETH: We'll get her safely to
the hospital as soon as I stabilize her.

Tasha, did you have to go
through water to get here?

There's a stream about
a half a click north of here.

Rocco, you stay here
with Guz and the Doc.

Yes, sir.

The rest of you, gather up.

Just in case.

Jim, wait.

Look, I'm sorry, about what I
said before. This is not your fault.

Yes, it is.

Josh came out here with
these kids just to spite me.

Spite you? No, he is you.

A pretty girl and a
chance to break the rules.

You'd have done the
same thing at his age.

Well, you should know.

You were that girl.

Bring him back.

I will.

Max, say we make
a run for our rover,

are those power cells usable?

This one's completely drained.
The other two are half charged.

If Hunter and I cover you,

how fast do you think you can
get those power cells installed?

Maybe five, ten minutes.

(SIGHS)

I say we make a
run for our rover,

power it up and get
the hell out of here.

Hunter, check the
cylinders on our weapons.

We could to do this, you guys.

Come on.

Are you hurt?

I'm fine.

You're pretty good at this
whole taking charge thing.

Yeah, well, my dad was a
corporal under Commander Taylor.

I guess he kinda
rubbed off on me.

Was?

(SIGHS) Syncillic fever.

Mom, too.

Sorry.

Everybody loses their
parents sooner or later.

And what's not supposed to
happen is the other way around.

Let's try to get the hell out
of here in one piece, all right?

If we do engage slashers,
aim for the underbelly.

Hides are too thick for
the tranq-guns to penetrate.

Stay five meters
clear of their tails.

Tango November, this
is Guz, do you copy?

Yeah, I'm here.

We're taking Tasha back to camp.

Doc says she needs surgery.

Understood.

Hey, Guz, she's in good hands.

Keep sharp eyes.

Mira's in your area. We
picked up Sixers radio chatter.

Damnation! Copy that!

Mira, just what I
need right now!

Her people always
this much trouble?

Yeah, so far. I don't know who
sent them. I don't know why.

But I'll tell you this, I'm not gonna
let them, I'm not gonna let anybody

stand in the way of
what we are building here.

Terra Nova will succeed.

SKYE: How's it looking, Josh?

JOSH: Looks like we've
got a clear run to the vehicle.

Okay. I think we're
clear on this side.

This side, too.

All right, remember,
stay together. We all set?

Look, maybe this
isn't such a good idea.

Maybe we should just
stay here and wait for help.

We talked about this.
We can't stay here.

Just, take it easy, man.

Look, if a slasher's
gonna munch on any of us,

it won't be your scrawny ass.

(CRASHING)

(GUNS FIRING) (SCREAMING)

SKYE: Hunter?

Hunter?

(GASPING)

Give me a hand.

We've got to get to the rover.

What about Hunter?

I'll stay and cover him. You
guys just get those power cells in

and get that thing moving.

I'm out!

(SCREECHING)

Come on.

(ROARING)

Flank and tranq!

Establish a perimeter.

Keep moving, Skye.
I got you covered.

Josh! Dad!

Josh.

Get down!

(WHIMPERS) It's okay.

It's okay. It's me.

It's over.

Get him in the transport.

Max! Oh, God!

You're gonna be okay.

You all right, young lady?

Tasha, she tried to
make it back to camp.

We got her.

You said there were Sixers?

Yeah, over there.

With me.

JIM: He's gone.

Mira. She came for her man.

Let's get you looked at.

Try not to put too
much weight on it.

Guess we know why they
call them slashers, huh?

(SIGHS)

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

I wanna say how sorry I
am for what happened today.

I know.

You've been so good
to me since my folks...

I just don't like
to disappoint you.

Well, you're still in one piece.
That the important thing, now.

And now you know
why that area's off limits.

Sir?

Well, it's slasher territory.

Yeah, of course.

So, just what were you
all doing out there anyhow?

Dumb stuff.

Drinking. (LAUGHS)

You didn't go anywhere
near the falls, did you?

No, sir. Good.

Good.

Those can be some
treacherous waters.

Someone was definitely
here. Found footprints.

It was those kids.
Taylor's not gonna like that.

He wants to keep
all this under wraps.

Why doesn't he just
blast them off the rocks?

'Cause these are the only
connection he has left to his son.

I still don't get why that crazy
bastard does this out here?

Why do you think? To
throw it in his old man's face.

Every time he gets
closer to an answer,

he puts it here
for Taylor to see.

To remind him.

The real reason for
Terra Nova's existence.

Control the past.

Control the future.

These are the key,

to everything.

Is it going to fall on us?

Is what going to
fall on us, sweetie?

What is it?

(GASPS)

That, my little
Zoe, is the Moon.

And, no, it's not
gonna fall on us.

Wow, I almost forgot
what it looks like.

I was a kid, when the air got so
bad, you couldn't see it anymore.

Was it always so big?

Not always.

It moves about a half a centimeter
away from the Earth every year.

So, it's much closer
than it was yesterday.

You mean tomorrow.

You know what I mean.

The sky's insane.

This whole place is.

MADDY: The stars are
all different here, too.

They're not in the
same place as in 2149,

because the universe has had
85 million fewer years to expand,

I mean, do the math.

We'll just leave the
math up to you, sweetie.
