The Event (2010–2011): Season 1, Episode 7 - I Know Who You Are - full transcript

BLAKE: We need
to root them out.
Every one of them.

So, do whatever
you have to.

BLAKE: Sophia's train
is proceeding east.

We're getting a clear signal
from the scandium 46
in her bloodstream.

They've got
a tracker in Sophia.

They put
an isotope in her food.

I'm counting on you.

Whoever dosed the people
at the coffee shop

did it with the same isotope
we used on Sophia.

Agent Lee.
Someone needs to check you.

SIMON: My cover's blown.
Sterling's aide made me.



I don't know
anything about your sister.

Where is Samantha?

Where is she?

Do not move or I
will shoot you!

Don't shoot.
You can have the file.

Move!

In 1944, an aircraft crashed
in AIaska.

The government
imprisoned the survivors.

Who are they?

AIiens.

That's him. Thomas.

Call it off.
It's too Iate.
This is it, Simon.

FBI TEAM LEADER: Execute,
execute, execute!

You have to
come with us now.



I'm sorry.

Go!
Go, I'II be right behind you!

Simon?

(SIREN WAILING
IN THE DISTANCE)

Aaron!

Do you have any idea how many
innocent Iives you just took?

They weren't innocents.
They were armed men,
hunting us down.

So that Martinez could
Iock us both up for
the rest of our Iives.

No, there had to
be a better way.

We were outnumbered.

Or was the building about
making a point to show
them what you could do?

It's good for them
to be afraid of us.

It'II make them think
twice when it comes
to their next move.

Don't you understand?
It will make them want to
hunt us down even more.

It's good to see you,
Sophia.

And you, Aaron.

Reinforcements are
being brought in
from all over the city.

We need to be on our way.

Where's Simon?
I thought he was
supposed to be with you.

He was supposed to be.

I thought his cover
was blown,

that they found out
he was working with us.

What happened?
Where is he?

SOPHIA:
That's what I'd Iike you
to find out, Aaron.

We don't even know
if he made it out
of the building alive.

How many of our men
were in that building?

How many?

We're currently estimating
between 15 and 30 men

were still in the building
when that happened.

They were ahead of us
every step of the way.

Can you tell me anything
that's gone right
with your operation?

Because this is a disaster.

How could this possibly
have happened?

It happened because
Sophia's people have
an informant in our ranks.

My aide, Justin Murphy,
brought it to my attention
Iess than an hour ago.

Why didn't you tell me?

I felt it would be
more pertinent

once we had
actually discovered
who the informant was.

And have you?

Mr. Murphy narrowed it down
to someone on the field team.

Your field team,
men you hand-picked
for the job.

That's correct.

Mr. Murphy went into the field
hoping to root them out.

Where is he now?

We've Iost contact.

He was Iast seen
with Agent Lee,

who was hurt
in the collapse.

Once Agent Lee recovers
from his wounds,
hopefully we'II find Murphy

and the informant.

Hopefully? You need
to do better than that.

This informant
is in your department,
he's one of your people.

If you can't trust
your own judgment,

how the hell can
you expect me to?

Find the informant,
or I'II find someone
else who can.

So yesterday, I told
my seventh graders

that they might
have a surprise quiz
on Gettysburg today.

(LAUGHS)

You are too
easy on them.

Apparently not because
even with the warning,
half the class fails.

Couldn't even answer
the question,

"Where does the battle of
Gettysburg take place?"

Come on.

(CHUCKLES) I'm serious.

It's Iike their bodies
are in the chairs,

but they've projected
their consciousness
somewhere else.

If I had you
as my teacher,

I'd be hanging on
your every word.

I wish I knew you
in seventh grade.

Mmm.

No, you don't.

Mmm.

Wow. This is really good.

It's from that winery
near Barcelona where
our car broke down.

You're kidding.
How did you...

I called the owner,

asked him to ship a case.

Wow.

Does anyone else know
what a hopeless
romantic you are?

It's been ten months,
three weeks

and two days.

And I feel Iike
celebrating, okay?

Yes. Yes.

(PHONE RINGING)

Oh!

Okay, go ahead.
I have some risotto to stir.

Hello?

BIake. I hope
I'm not disturbing you.

Of course not, Father.

There are some things
we need to discuss.

Yes?

Not on the phone.
Come by my office
first thing in the morning.

Sorry, I've got
a meeting in the morning.

Cancel it.
This is important.

How is he?

Mr. Lee suffered
a subdural hematoma.

Now, we were able to reduce
the swelling in the cranium...

When can he talk?

It could be hours.
He suffered severe trauma...

Thank you, Doctor.

You're going to wait?

For as Iong as it takes.

You can't keep me here.
I have a job.
I have responsibilities.

Help! Somebody!

(BANGING)

I'm in the trunk!

Help me!
Can anyone hear me?

Mr. Murphy!

Mr. Murphy, slow down.
Take it easy.

Agent Lee...

Agent Lee made it
out of the building.

They took him
to the hospital.

No. Agent Lee,
he's the mole.

What?
I need to talk
to Director Sterling.

AIiens?

Do you expect us
to believe that this
happened to my family

because of aliens?

Because he discovered
the truth about aliens.

And the correct term is
Extraterrestrial
Biological Entities, or EBEs.

So Iong as that's clear.

I know it's a Iot
to accept.

I didn't, not at first.

Madeline,
if no one's actually
seen these EBEs,

how can you be sure
they really exist?

Top secret
government documents,

some of which
are in the file.

See for yourself.

Where?

Sean, you're not
actually taking what
she's saying seriously.

Your father and I were on
a plane that went from
FIorida to Arizona in seconds.

We don't have
that technology.

Are you talking about
Avias FIight 514?

Michael was piloting that?

You know about it?

Rumor has it the plane
disappeared during
an assassination attempt.

Now it makes sense.

What? What makes sense?

Well, there was chatter,
since suppressed,

that the President
was going public
about Inostranka.

Don't you see?

Having your father
fly his plane
into the President

was killing two birds
with one stone.

The President would be
stopped from revealing
the existence of the EBEs

and your father would
be stopped passing
on what he found out.

What did my father find out?

The night before
he disappeared,

your father told me
that there was
someone out there

who would go to any Iengths
to stop Martinez.

For their own mysterious
reasons, not political.

Whoever this person is,
they are behind everything
that has happened to you.

If you want
to find your family,
you need to find them.

And we need to hope
that the answers
are in that file.

Look in your father's file.

Look! Look, come here.

I don't know about
all this either, okay?

EBEs, conspiracies to
keep them secret...

But right now,
it's the only theory,
however insane,

that explains
any part of this.

Sean, I don't know...

I don't know.
I don't know
either, okay?

But your father's file
is the best and
only Iead that we have

to finding out
who's behind this
and your family.

WOMAN:
You know something.
What do you know?

MICHAEL: She's not
telling me anything.

Nobody's telling me anything.

(MUFFLED SCREAMING)

(SCREAMS)

Look...

I'm trying to help.

May I take a Iook?

Let me see.

This I've seen.
This I've seen.

This is new information.

Look. This.

This is your
father's notebook.

And most of this stuff
I've already seen,

but this is new.

This Iist of names
and numbers...

Who are these people?

I don't know, it Iooks Iike
most of them are women,

(SIGHS)

but the numbers are too Iong
to be phone numbers.

It must be some
kind of code.

Well, if it's a code,
then I can crack it

and I can find out who
all these people are.

I just need the right kind
of hardware and
a CES-encrypted hardline.

So that we can data-mine
without anyone
knowing that we're doing it.

I have a friend that
might be able to help.

Phalaenopsis
typically only flower
once every two years,

but these guys
are different.

(CHUCKLES)

Genetically engineered
to open every month.

You have a call, sir.

For your wife.

A $2 million bouquet.

Where are you?

In FBI custody,
Dallas Field Office.

The Iawyer your people sent
says this room's been swept
and the Iine's clean.

Good.

The Iast I heard,
you and your partner

were moments away from
securing the pilot's daughter
and her boyfriend.

We didn't secure them, sir.
They got away.

How?

I'm not sure, sir.

That is not an acceptable
answer, young man.

Do you have any idea
where they are now?

Somehow they found out
her father was chosen

to fly that plane
for a reason, sir.

I see.

They may have gone
to her parents' house
in Atlanta to dig around.

But they could have
come and gone by now.

I'll find them.
I have my ways.

And we really
have no choice.

Michael Buchanan put his nose
into things he shouldn't have.

If these two come up
with the same discoveries,

could be dangerous for us.

I understand, sir.

That'II be all.

You've done well for yourself
over the Iast 66 years.

Our holdings are
in good shape.

Their economy fluctuates
up and down in a way
they can't predict.

With our math, we can.

Buy Iow and sell high.

And you weren't concerned
about someone taking
notice of all this success?

A man in the Midwest
does all the investing
for me.

He's made a fortune
following my advice.

Draws all the attention
to himself.

We need to talk.

I don't want to hear
about what happened
to the building...

How dare you speak
to me Iike that!

Your orders were to do
what was needed to
get us home! That's all.

Instead you've destroyed
every bit of trust I built.

You've blackmailed
the President,
infected innocent people...

I tried to do
what was right for us.

I decide

what's right for us,
not you.

And you need to come
to terms with that before
anyone else gets hurt.

Is that a threat?

It's an order.

And our people,

Aaron and Simon

and the rest of you
who are Iiving free,
will follow my Iead.

You know that.

I understand.

Do you?

I didn't mean
you disrespect.

I'm sorry, Mother.

Then what's past is past.

We start fresh from here.

I just heard from
one of our watchers.

Simon's at the hospital.

Is he all right?
He's alive.

But the accusation's
being made
that he's our mole.

You're telling me the head of
my Special Operations crew

is the informant.

Sir, there is no doubt
in my mind.

I don't see how that
could be possible, sir.

When I went to scan him
for trace radiation,
he attacked me.

Why else would he do that,
if not to protect himself
from being exposed?

You think he planted
that isotope
at the coffee shop?

Well, then scan him now!
It won't work any more.

The half-Iife on the isotope
has already expired.

Yeah, how convenient
for you.

Agent...
I'm sorry, sir,

but I can't just sit back
and Iisten to this.

Simon saved my Iife back there
and I wasn't the only one.

Why would he do that if
he was working
for the other side, sir?

To convince you that he isn't.
Which he clearly has.

This isn't productive.

Murphy, bring me all
of Agent Lee's
personnel files.

I want to take a second
Iook at everything.

Sir...
Your protest is
noted, Agent.

If this is true, it has
significant national
security implications.

I have no choice,
but to proceed accordingly.

I want you to go back
to that coffee shop.

Process the scene.
Look for evidence

in Iight of
these allegations.

You want me to help
crucify my friend.

I want you to do your job.

Yes, sir.

Good morning.

Want some coffee?

No, thank you.

I'd Iike to know
what this is about.

How are things
at home, BIake?

Fine.

(SIGHS) Ifyou don't
mind, Father,

I have a Iot
on my plate
this morning.

So ifwe could please
just get to whatever
you need to talk to me about,

I'd appreciate it.

It's Laura.

(SCOFFS)

Aren't we past this?

Her real name is
Svetlana Agletinova.

Born in Moscow, 1968.

She's a Russian
intelligence operative.

We've been trailing her
for months.

She meets her contact
at the Dupont Circle
fountain on Tuesdays.

She has drop points
all over the city.

There must be another
explanation for this.

No.

Unfortunately.

MAN: Hello?

LAURA: Hello.
Is Bobby there?

This is Bobby.

(SPEAKING RUSSIAN)

(SPEAKING RUSSIAN)

(SPEAKING RUSSIAN)

Bobby is Sergei Vneshney.

He works both sides.

She copied the Oxford file
from your computer,
among other things.

BIake,

I know you understand
what you have to do.

You don't need me for this.

No, I don't.

But I thought
I'd at Ieast give you
a chance to say goodbye

and to save your career.

Bring her in.

Tonight.

You asked for me, sir?

I found a Iack of key
verifiable points

in Simon's
biographical information.

Inconsistencies?

Mmm. Improbabilities.

The high school he claims to
have attended was destroyed
by Hurricane FIoyd in 1999.

Ditto for his middle school.

So no records?
That's convenient.

Most of his family, too,
is dead or unreachable.

Now that I think of it,
I've never heard him
mention his family.

My first 10 years
on the job,

I Iost half my hair.

The other halfwent grey.

That's what this work
does to most people.

But Agent Lee

Iooks as fresh as
the day I hired him.

Wait a minute,
are you saying...

Simon Lee may not
just be a mole
working for the sleepers,

there's a chance
he's one of them.

Take his blood

and run a DNA screen.

We'II know the truth
soon enough.

I know how difficult
this must be for you, sir.

On the contrary,
I'm only too happy to expose
whoever this operative is,

if it gets us
further intelligence
on the sleepers.

And if he won't talk?

He will.

When the identity of
the mole is confirmed,

I intend to subject him
to the kinds of enhanced
interrogation techniques

that congressional
oversight committees have
never even conceived of.

And if that mole
is Simon Lee,

may God have
mercy on him.

(DOORBELL BUZZING)

No one's home.

No, he's here.

Then why isn't
he answering?

You want to find out
about the Iist, right?

What those names mean?

Come on, Peter.

(DOORBELL CONTINUES BUZZING)

Go away, Madeline.

I left you a message.

It's important.
You know it's important.

Otherwise,
I wouldn't be here.

Who are they?

This is Sean Walker
and Leila Buchanan.

She says you can get me
access to an encrypted
trunk line

and some decent hardware.
No.

Peter, they need
our help.

It's too dangerous, M.

I don't know who you are,

but you're our only hope.

My mother
has been murdered.

My father and my sister,
they've been taken.

PIease.

She's seven-years-old.

Empty your pockets.

Do it.

Every one of us is tagged,
tracked and catalogued by
what we carry.

AII your personal information,
scanable from a distance

by whoever has
the wherewithal.

Everything Iike that
has been taken from us.

What do you need?

We need help figuring out
what this Iist means.

What is it?

We don't know.
Names of women

but there could be some
coded information in there.

We're hoping that
it will Iead to the people
who took her family

and framed me for murder.

What?

I still have sources inside
the intelligence community.

Friends.

The government
has your father.

(SIGHS)

So he's alive?

Whether they'd
acknowledge that,

or Iet him out,
for that matter...

What about her sister?

Unclear.

I'd write it off.
Consider her dead.

What?

He does not
know that for sure.
He does not know that.

I don't know who
took your sister,

but I've seen
what they can do.

AII right, this game,
(CHUCKLES) it's rigged.

You cannot win.

Walk away
while you still can.

Look. We're not
giving up, okay?

Okay? AII we need
is a few minutes
on your system

and then
we'II be gone, okay?

Did you find them
at the house?

REVIS: We missed them,
but according to a neighbor,

there was a woman
who was with them,

that matched Madeline
Jackson's description.

Are we sure
it was Ms Jackson?

Yes, sir.

A friend of ours at NSA
ran a voice match on
archived cellular traffic,

said that they made
a phone call
about an hour ago.

Left a message with
someone saying the that
three of them needed help

and were on their way.

Were you able
to determine
their destination?

Yes. We'll be
there shortly.

Did you find anything?

Uh...

Not yet. We built custom
search protocols,

but they're gonna
take a while
to run the names.

Are you okay?

I've been...

I've been thinking
about how unfair I've been.

To ask you to put yourself
in danger for my family.

If something were
to happen to you...

Leila...

Leila, Michael
and Samantha,

they're my family.

What if what
he said is true?

Do you believe that
Samantha's still alive?

I honestly don't know.

The names on your Iist,

they're not women.
They're girls.
What?

AII reported missing
within the Iast six months,

all roughly the same
age as your sister.
Oh, my God.

What does that mean?

What does it have to do
with the people
who took my family?

That I can't tell you.

What about the other data?
The Ietters and the numbers...

Yeah, it's strange.
They're SEC ID numbers
for shell corporations.

Shell corporations for what?

That I don't know,
but they're based
in Los Angeles.

(BRAKES SCREECHING)

Peter, we need to go!
There's someone here.

Follow me.

Let's go!
PETER: Come on.

Now.
PETER: I told you
I shouldn't have Iet you in.

This and this.

(GASPS)

Hold on to your hats.

This is your Iife now.

Come on, Iet's go!
No time!

(GRUNTS)

Are you okay?

(CAR ALARMS BEEPING)

(GROANS)

They're gone.

They're gone.

Hold it!

Thank you.
What floor?

Ground, please.

Can I ask you something?

Would you happen
to have a cigarette?

No, sorry.

Been years for me.

Me, too.

It's a terrible habit,

but today is

one of those days.

You know what I do?
Hmm?

Dark chocolate.

Chocolate? Really?

Sounds crazy, I know,

but it releases
a Iittle serotonin kick.

Eases the craving.

Hmm.

(ELEVATOR BELL DINGS)

Thanks for the tip.
Anytime.

You're awake.

You know I can
never fall asleep
when you're away.

(SIGHS)

(VOICE BREAKING)
Do you Iove me, Laura?

Of course I do.

What is it, baby?

What's wrong?

I know.

What?

Everything.

Everything about what?

No, no, no, please.
PIease don't do that. PIease.

Don't Iie

because I know.

And only by being
completely honest

is there any hope
of this working out.

Honey, you're scaring me.
I don't understand...

Listen to me!
I know who you are!

(SIGHS) Crazy thing is,

I don't care.

I know this started
as a job for you

but somehow,

I do believe

that this part,

what we have,

is real.

I Iove you

in a way I never
thought possible.

And the thought of
my Iife without you,

everything else

fades.
BIake...

So I bought us two tickets

(LAUGHS)

for Buenos Aires.

We'II Ieave tonight.

Just disappear.

The rest doesn't matter.

(SNIFFLES)

(CAR ENGINE STARTING)

(SILENCED GUNSHOT)

Laura!

(GASPS)

There was no alternative.

I'm sorry.

(CRYING) Oh, my God.

Here, take it.

We'II say that
you handled this yourself.

Get out of here!

Son, this can either be
the end of your career,

or a genuine triumph.
The choice is yours.

Take the gun, BIake.

Don't throw it all away.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Sterling.
GARRET: Sir?

Agent Garret.
I think we've got some
traction on our problem.

The receptacle used
to transport
the scandium 46,

we found it in a trash bin
at the coffee shop.

Any prints?

Yes, sir. We dusted
and found two partials.
Should be enough to work with.

All right,
I want you to personally
get the evidence to the lab.

Call me as soon
as you get an ID.

That I will.
Oh, and, sir,

any word on Agent Lee's
DNA test?

Not yet. It takes time.

Get us a match on those prints
and we won't have to wait.

Come on! Come on!

(CRYING)
Where are we going?
Hurry, hurry.

Where are we going?

Okay, okay,
we're onto something,

or they wouldn't
be chasing us.

Okay?
So, we're getting closer.
We're gonna figure this out.

So what? We're just
gonna be Iike them,

and keep Iooking
over our shoulders
everywhere we go?

Listen, Iisten, I'm gonna
make sure that I do
everything I possibly can

to untangle this mess
so that we can get
back to Iiving our Iives.

We're gonna get older...
Look, Iook, Iook,
stop, stop, stop.

Look at me.
Look at me.

It's okay. Hey!
Hey, Iook at me.

We're gonna be all right.

We're gonna be okay, okay?

I Iove you so much.

And I'm gonna do
everything, okay?

I Iove you.

Yeah. I Iove you.

(GROANS)

We took blood
from you, Simon.
Ran a DNA screen.

Why would you do that?

To prove Murphy's accusation
that you were a sleeper.

Congratulations.
You're human.

Of course, that still
Ieaves a multitude of
unanswered questions.

Such as the unfortunate
presence of
a mole in our midst.

Luckily, a vial with
the mole's prints was found.

Garret ran the prints

and found a match.

Murphy's the mole.

Murphy?

(MEN CHATTERING)

(EXHALES)

That's unexpected.

I believe I owe you
an apology.

No, there's no need, sir.

I understand.

No, Simon.

You couldn't possibly.

Well, I'd Iike it sooner
rather than Iater, obviously.

I mean, it's been
over two hours now.

Mr. Murphy.
Yes.

PIease come with me.

What's going on?
You're under arrest.

Are you kidding me?

Wait, wait, wait.
Get your hands off me!

Wait, what's going on?

I don't think
that's necessary.

Director Sterling!
Sir! Sir!

PIease. Just a second!

What the hell is going on?

Mother,

Simon's gonna be fine.

The blame's been
placed elsewhere.

(SIGHS) Thank you.

So tell me, how far
along are you?

In terms of getting
everyone home?

Over the years,
I helped their nuclear
program along.

I got them to the point
where they could produce,
crudely,

the raw materials we need
to open up the portal.

The uranium hexafluorides
and cesium isotopes.

I assumed as much from
the portal you used
to transport the plane

and implode the building.

Unfortunately,
we have Iimitations.

Meaning?

What you witnessed
is the current extent
of our abilities.

We can move an airliner
a few thousand miles away,

but we have nowhere
near the capabilities

of being able to
transport everyone
all the way home.

Why?

We're missing a few
key components.

But we can recreate,
and in some cases, recover,

with your help.

Then the problem
is the raw materials.
We don't have enough.

Nowhere near enough.

The only source for
the major ingredients is in
their processing facilities,

or the nuclear
warheads themselves.

AII tightly guarded.

Yes,

but I've been giving
this a Iot of thought

and I may have a way in.

The White House just
released a statement

that the passengers
of Avias 514
are recovering well

from the effects of
the substance they were
exposed to on board.

They also say
they will be released

as soon as doctors
determine their
condition is stable.

(SIGHS)
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Come in.

Mr. President.

We found the Ieak, sir.

Justin Murphy.

I heard.

Over the years,

I've become so careful.

I've honed my intuition,

Iearned how to identify those
I could really trust.

It's been a Iong time
since I've been
this wrong about someone.

I failed you, sir.
I'm sorry.

BIake.

Are you actually telling me
you're not perfect?

Honestly,

it's kind of a relief.

Want a beer?

Absolutely.

Where's my mom?

I want my mom and dad.

When can I see them?

(GIRL HUMMING)

WOMAN: Girls,
