Timeless (2016–2018): Season 2, Episode 9 - The General - full transcript

CONNOR: Previously
on Timeless...

- I'm going to die.
- What?

On one of our next trips,
Jiya saw it in a vision of hers.

Did you ever think that maybe
you're seeing these things

so that you can save Rufus?

CONNOR: Let's see what
Rittenhouse has been hiding.

That's Jessica.

- Who's that?
- Kevin, my brother.

You shoot pool
with all the time.

- Not in my timeline.
- What do you mean?

He died before he was three.



No, he didn't, Wyatt.

Is there something
you're not telling me?

Yeah, there is.

(SIGHS)

I'm pregnant.

- (INDISTINCT CHATTER)
- (HORSES WHINNYING)

Colonel Ryerson,
sir. You have a visitor.

It's a young woman.

All right. Send her on in.

I brought you
something from home.

(CHUCKLES)

(SIGHS)

So, uh, no letters or
photos from my wife?

It's been a little
chaotic since you left.



Come on, when is the last
time you had a cheeseburger?

(CHUCKLES)

A nearby Union regiment is about to raid
the plantations along the Combahee River

You're going to stop them.

All the details you need...

are in here.

Pull this off, and you're
back home with your wife.

And all the
cheeseburgers you can eat.

CAROL: It's this way.

Why did you bring me here?

To talk about Emma.

I realize you two
have had your issues.

Please. I don't care
about any of that.

And I don't care that
you're sleeping together.

- I don't trust her.
- Why do you say that?

I think she's
sabotaging the missions.

The Suffragette movement of
1919, that should've been easy.

And yet somehow,
the mission fails

and Emma is the only
one to come back alive?

If you asked Emma, she'd
say that Lucy's to blame.

You're my grandfather, and I
have the greatest respect for you,

but quit thinking
with your crotch.

- Excuse me?
- You're blind.

Emma has been a part of almost
every one of these failed missions,

but each time you blame Lucy?

The fact is, Rittenhouse
is in Lucy's blood,

not Emma's.

Rittenhouse is about family.

It's about legacy.

Something Emma
will never understand.

(NICHOLAS SIGHS)

My daughter.

Yes.

My mother.

She was two when I left.

I never got to see her...

grow up.

You sacrificed
everything for Rittenhouse.

For her.

For me one day.

Emma isn't family.

Her faith is fleeting.

She doesn't believe
in you like I do.

WYATT: You wanted to see us?

LUCY: Hey, where's Flynn?

RUFUS: I think
he's still asleep.

You ever heard him
snore? Dude needs a CPAP.

DENISE: No Flynn.
Just you three.

What we're about to tell
you stays between us.

For Wyatt's sake.

For my sake?

I found some, um, shall
we say, troubling files

on the Rittenhouse computers.

Is that Jessica?

When was that taken?

There are hundreds of these.

Going all the way back
to Jessica's childhood.

Rittenhouse has been
following Jessica her entire life?

Why would they do that?

That's what we've been trying
to figure out for a week now.

You've known
about this for a week.

You're just now telling me?

Look, I'm treading
cautiously here,

but Rittenhouse brought Jessica
back from the dead for a reason, Wyatt.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you
saying Jessica works for Rittenhouse?

- (WYATT SCOFFS)
- The truth is, we don't know who she is.

Yeah, we do. She's my wife.

I've known her
since high school.

CONNOR: No, Wyatt.

To be precise, you knew a
Jessica who had sadly passed away.

This Jessica
could be... different.

(SCOFFS)

Do you have any reason at all
to suspect Jessica of anything?

Come on. (LAUGHING)
This is insane.

If she were Rittenhouse, wouldn't
she have tried to kill us by now

or given up our location?

Exactly. Thank you.

DENISE: Wyatt, I'm
moving her out of the bunker.

It's the safest thing
for Jessica, and for us.

Wait. What?

Wouldn't that put her in
danger? If she's not Rittenhouse?

We'll provide her with
around the clock protection.

Jessica's not going anywhere.

I know this isn't easy for you,

but you're a soldier and you
need to think of the mission.

Jessica's a
potential security risk.

She's pregnant.

You throw her out, I go too.

She's what?

I think he just said
she's pregnant.

That went well.

(ALARM BLARING)

South Carolina.
June the 1st, 1863.

We're going back to
the Civil War again.

- Yay!
- DENISE: So why South Carolina?

I don't know. Fort Sumter
was a couple of years before.

The assault on Fort Wagner
isn't for another month.

Wait. Wait. Wait.

What about the
Combahee River Raid?

Oh, um...

Of course. It was that night.

Come on, Lucy. Defend your
territory. You're the history geek.

It was a regiment of
mostly black Union soldiers

who planned a surprise attack

on dozens of plantations
in the middle of the night.

Torched fields, freed
hundreds of slaves.

If Rittenhouse stops it, it's
a serious blow to the Union.

Atta girl. Show him who's boss.

RUFUS: There's more.

It was led by Harriet Tubman.

You think Rittenhouse is trying to
derail the Underground Railroad?

No. The Underground Railroad
was humming for years before that.

During the war, Tubman was
actually a Union spy. They called her...

They called her "The General."

How did you know that?

Oh, well, she's not
just an American hero.

Across the pond, we even
have streets named after her.

So, they going after
Tubman and her men.

Wyatt. You've anything
you'd like to add?

Why?

Obviously you all are
the experts at everything.

Let's get going.

She better be here
when I get back.

You have my word.

WYATT: Sure you're gonna
be okay, when I'm gone?

I'm not the one
I'm worried about.

Yes. I'll be fine.

Turns out pregnancy just makes me
wanna binge watch This is Us and ugly cry.

So, I'll get it all outta my
system before you're back.

(BOTH LAUGH)

We gotta tell your family
the good news soon.

Sure.

As soon as we get out of
this dank, rusty hellhole,

I will send out the invitations
for the baby shower.

I know. I'm sorry.

I know you wanna see
'em. I wanna see 'em too.

Hell, I never even
met your brother.

JESSICA: Mmm-hmm.

What?

(CHUCKLES)

It's just weird,

how much you've been
talking about my brother lately.

Well, it's, uh...
(CHUCKLES) It is kinda weird.

You know, in my timeline, he died
when he was three from leukemia.

Now he's suddenly
alive and kicking. It's...

So am I. That's a
good thing, right?

Yes, of course.

Are you sure you don't
remember how he was cured?

Or who cured him or why or
anything? I mean, it's just...

I was a kid.

Would you rather he'd have died?

No, come on.

I'm sorry.

Now are you going to answer
my question, the important one?

What question?

Boy or girl?

(CHUCKLES)

Oh... Hmm...

Let's see.

I will take either one.

- Girl.
- You can't say that.

- Girl, 100%.
- What if it's a boy?

Then I will love him
almost as much as a girl.

And we'll just try and try
and try until we get one.

- You are truly awful.
- (LAUGHING)

You are.

(JESSICA SIGHS)

Be careful.

Yeah.

(WHIRRING)

LUCY: I don't think you
should be angry at Christopher.

She's just trying to protect us.

WYATT: Who's angry?

I'm just reading a map.

Look, I get how hard
this Jessica thing must be,

but we just have to
keep an open mind.

Yeah, an open mind

to my wife is a cult-loving
sociopathic traitor.

Rittenhouse took those
photos for a reason.

They brought her
back for a reason.

Yes. To distract us.

In which case, Christopher
freaking out is exactly what they want.

I hope so.

We just... We have to be sure.

What do you want me to
say, Lucy, that my wife is a liar?

Hell, maybe she's lying
about being pregnant, too.

You do think she
is lying about that.

RUFUS: If Rittenhouse doesn't
kill us, the mosquitoes will.

Is West Nile a thing yet?

No, but typhoid and dysentery

killed about a hundred
and fifty thousand soldiers.

So, better wash your vegetables.

What's up with Captain Sunshine?

(LUCY SIGHS)

(SIGHS)

This must be the
second South Carolina.

They were the only
Union regiment in the area.

Tell me it's not
the same regiment

that's supposed to raid
the plantation tonight.

Afraid so.

This wasn't supposed to happen.

Looks like the Confederates
took them by surprise.

WYATT: Rittenhouse must have
a sleeper in the Confederate Army

tellin' 'em what to do.

So, we're too late?

History's already changed?
The South's gonna win?

(SIGHS)

MAN: (SPEAKING WEAKLY) Help.

Please, help.

Please, help me die.

Help me die easy.

We will find a doctor for you.

No, no.

Please, mercy.

Give me a gun
and I'll do it myself.

(BREATH SHUDDERING)

- (GUNSHOT)
- (ALL EXCLAIM)

What's wrong with you,
not helping a soldier in need?

You're Harriet
Tubman! You're alive.

HARRIET: But you
won't be for long.

Now who the hell are you?

LUCY: You don't know
us, but we know you.

You are a legend
where we're from.

Where's that?
Sound like Yankees.

General McClellan sent us

to help you and Colonel
Montgomery with the raid tonight.

I was just thinking
you look familiar to me.

- I seen you before?
- FLYNN: No.

We're from really,
really far up north.

Well, you're late. Damn Rebs
came from out of nowhere.

Like they knew
right where to go.

Colonel Montgomery retreated,
took all of his men along with him.

- Do you know where the Rebs are now?
- No.

But I aim to find out and slit
their throats before the night's out.

LUCY: You can't
continue the raid.

Montgomery's gone,
so are most of your men.

Most, but not all.

Got some recuperating
at a safe house nearby.

Wait, we're hunting a Confederate spy.
The one who led the attack on you here.

If you would just give us a
minute, let us do our job...

If you think I'm gonna stand
down, you don't know me very well.

You wanna find your spy?

I'll let you join us.

But get in my way,

I'll shoot you my damn self.

Dude, Harriet Tubman's hardcore.

Yeah.

- Where have you been?
- I wanna meet Stanley Fisher.

I'm sorry. I don't
know who that is.

You don't? Let me
refresh your memory.

The time machine pilot you've
had locked away in a mental hospital.

- (SIGHS)
- Hmm?

The one who has had
similar visions to mine.

The one you've been
hiding from me and Rufus.

- I haven't been hiding anything.
- Don't you dare.

What I've been going through,

and you knew someone
going through the same thing,

- and you didn't tell me?
- Where did you get all of this?

Oh, that's where you were.
Hacking into my laptop.

- Take me to Stanley Fisher.
- Why?

Why?

Maybe because he can help me understand
my visions, and then I can help Rufus.

Look, I...

The reason I didn't tell you is
'cause I wanted to protect you.

You're not going to learn anything
about your visions from Stanley Fisher.

The man's mad as a hatter.

I don't need protection.
I need answers.

You're going to keep hounding
me till my dying day, aren't you?

Without question.

All right. Let's see if Agent
Christopher will let us up for some air.

(CUP THUDS)

That went better than I thought.

(COUGHING)

(MAN WHIMPERING)

What's she giving him?

She knows all sorts
of herbal remedies.

She was a nurse, a
cook, a spy, a soldier.

She had to fight for a military pension,
still didn't get it, died in poverty.

Well, if she goes on this raid, she's
gonna die a lot sooner than that.

WYATT: This is Samuel.

Tell 'em what you told me.

I seen the Rebs at the
Willow Glen Plantation.

Ran here fast as I could.

- Brave kid.
- Willow Glen's just up river.

Whole lot of slaves
there who could help us.

And a lot of Confederates
who could kill you.

Start mustering.

You said you had men. I see a
half-dozen here. Where's the rest?

We'll make over a hundred
with the slaves we free.

They're unarmed,
fighting soldiers with guns.

And I would give every
drop of my blood to free them.

What are you fighting
for if it ain't for this?

We're with you. We are.

But it's just important that
we find this Confederate spy

or every battle that we fight from
here on out will be a losing one.

(SIGHS)

All right. I'll help
you get to your spy,

but then I'm
freeing those slaves.

- You hear me?
- RUFUS: We hear you.

Believe me. We are not
gonna lose this friggin' war.

We leave at dark.

To Colonel Ryerson,

for his heroic defeat of those
back shootin' Blue-bellies,

and for saving our grand
plantations along the river.

ALL: Hear, hear.

Gentlemen! Gentlemen, there
should be many more battles to come.

In fact, scouts tell me Union
regiments are converging on Vicksburg.

We leave at dawn, face 'em on
the road, before they join forces.

Should be easy pickings.

ALL: Hear, hear.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(CLEARS THROAT)

Where'd you get that?

Harriet insists.

I tried to tell her
I'm covered, but...

She's a little stubborn, in
case if you haven't noticed.

I noticed.

She's going in
outnumbered three to one.

Well, just have to get in and get
out before things get too messy.

You mean before her
and her men are all killed?

Hey, if you think you can
talk her down, have at it.

Besides, we need
her to show us the way.

I have a different idea.

Yeah? What's that?

You and Rufus go with Harriet

and Flynn and I will
ride to Port Royal

to convince Colonel Montgomery

to give her the troops
that she needs for the raid.

You and Flynn?

Of course.

You and Rufus are a better team.

Yeah. I suppose we are.

And Harriet likes you.

Just delay her for a few hours
till we get back with the troops.

- Can you do that?
- I'll do my best.

I got it, Wyatt.

(HORSE WHINNIES)

(GRUNTS)

HARRIET: I
appreciate you trying,

but Colonel Montgomery
ain't coming back.

He has new orders.

He'll come back when I tell
him what'll happen if he doesn't.

HARRIET: Oh, yeah? What's that?

That the Union
will lose the war.

It's Confederate
territory the entire way.

I can handle a couple
of farmers playing soldier.

Just be careful.

We'll come back
with reinforcements.

Don't start the
party without us.

(HORSES WHINNYING)

(CHUCKLES) It
actually fits pretty well.

- Thank you.
- Glad to help.

Lots of people around
here siding with the devil.

Plenty of decent folk, too.

I'd like some extra crispy
chicken tenders, Colonel Sanders.

You're a riot.

So, I figured I'd go in
with him as a free man.

(LAUGHS) Boy, we're
sneaking you in as a house slave.

We'll get you your clothes next.

Got it. Right.

So, Colonel, can
you do an accent?

Uh...

How y'all doin'?

Okay. Less J.R. from Dallas,
more Leo from Django Unchained.

What, who? In what?

Uh... These guys from back home.

Boy, you do too much talking,
they'll find you out real fast.

She's right. Drop the accent.

Leo was overacting, anyway.

I'll keep it subtle.

Just make it quick.

As soon as we free
our brothers and sisters,

we're setting fire
to those fields,

whether or not your friends are back
with Montgomery's reinforcements.

Can you just try to wait
until we find the spy?

Ma'am, it's important.

This could actually win
the war for the Union.

You ain't stopping me.

We'd be crazy to
try, Ms. Tubman.

Now I realize why
you look so familiar.

God came to me in a dream
and told me you was coming.

The Lord works in
mysterious ways.

I'd introduce you, but as you can
see, he's not very, uh, sociable.

Is he always like this?

Ninety-five percent of the time.

His muscles have atrophied,

even though he's perfectly
capable of getting out of bed.

Or at least he was.

(MONITORS BEEPING)

He's having a vision.

(BOTH GASP)

(PANTING)

You're having visions, too?

CONNOR: Stanley, this is Jiya.

Jiya, meet Stanley.

Still training pilots, I see.

Out of necessity, I'm afraid.

Tell me, Connor, have
you ever wondered

what it must've been like
to know Genghis Khan?

Joseph Stalin? Adolf Hitler?

In my visions...

My visions...

I've seen the most evil men in
history doing unimaginable things.

Yes, and your point being?

- You're worse.
- All right. Here we go.

You hear that?
Worse than Hitler.

Someone call The Guinness
Book of World Records,

tell them there's a
new worst person ever.

How many mental
trips have you taken?

I don't know.

Have you seen
any new colors yet?

New colors?

The forbidden colors.

Um... No, I don't think I have.

(STUTTERS) You will.

(VOICE BREAKING)
You'll love them.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

RUFUS: You ready?

WYATT: Just another
day at the office.

(GUN CLICKING)

So, you know
we're friends, right?

Like, bro-code and
all that. I got your back.

(SIGHS)

Rufus, whatever you're
gonna say, just say it.

It's about Jessica.

You seemed a little defensive.

Stop. Not another word.

Well, like now, now
totally not defensive.

She isn't Rittenhouse.

It's not true.

I hope you're right,
I think you're right.

But there's a lot at stake
here, we just gotta be sure.

It can't be true.

'Cause if it is...

I'm done.

I lost her once, I just...

I can't lose her again.

I just can't.

(STUTTERS) I get it.

I'm just asking
you to consider it.

If there's anything with her or
her family that doesn't add up, just

say something.

That's all.

(DOOR OPENS)

(SIGHS)

How long you been free?

All my life.

You're lucky.

I know.

You said God told
you we were coming,

that he speaks to
you in your dreams.

How long have you been
having these visions?

Had them for years.

My spirit travels out of
me when I'm in a spell,

searching for His voice.

And when I hear it,

He shows me the path
and what I gotta do.

And God told you to go on this
raid, even with the odds against you?

There's two things
I got a right to

and those are death or liberty.

One or the other
I means to have.

You're not afraid?

(LAUGHS)

You're a fool if you ain't.

But I'll stick my rifle right
in fear's ugly face anyway.

Come on, now. It's getting dark.

Time for us to go
join your friend.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

You come to me
without official orders,

no identification of any kind,

one of you with an
accent I can't quite place,

and expect me to send my regiment
back to where we narrowly escaped death

after being ambushed by
a Confederate cavalry unit?

Well, you don't have to
be so glass-half-empty.

Who the hell are you people?

We are Union spies.

- With no papers?
- Because we are spies.

Colonel Montgomery, sir.

Harriet Tubman and her men
are risking their lives for this raid.

My regiment's been ordered to
Port Hudson first thing tomorrow.

You change that order,
I'll change that plan.

- Otherwise...
- Harriet Tubman needs you,

and the Union needs her.

There are more than 750 slaves

working on the river plantations
who are willing to fight.

You're going to need these men

at Fort Wagner,
Vicksburg, and Petersburg.

Who are you, Miss, to
speak to me this way?

I'm someone who knows
what the hell she's talking about.

(CHATTER AND LAUGHTER)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Take your hat, sir?

Oh, yeah. Thanks.

Welcome. I don't believe
we've had the pleasure.

Rhett Butler.

Visiting from my
plantation in Georgia.

(CHATTER AND LAUGHTER)

- Evening, Ms. Tubman.
- Evening, Ms. Tubman.

Nancy, go and tell the
others it's time to go.

We going to the
boats on the water?

No. We're walking to Port Royal.

Isaiah, this is my
new friend, Rufus.

Come from up north to
help us fight the Rebs.

What's going on in
the house tonight?

Some kind of occasion.
I don't know what for.

That's what Rufus
is aiming to find out.

Can you sneak him
in as a house slave?

He's going to need some clothes.

You're just a tiny
little thing, ain't you?

And now I'm back in junior high.

I'll get the children out safe
and gather up the others.

We'll wait for your
signal as long as we can.

It's gonna be okay.

We're getting you
out of here for good.

These were my brother's.

He was tiny like you.
Called him Chipmunk.

Yeah, no, I get it.

We swept through that Yankee
camp like a swarm of angry hornets,

cutting down every man standing,

even one man sitting! (CHUCKLES)

Caught doing his
business in the bush.

(LAUGHING)

Now, how did y'all know that
that Union camp was even there?

Intelligence from one of our
top men, Colonel Ryerson.

Just seems to know
things no one else knows.

Yeah, I'll bet.

- I mean, I do declare.
- (CHUCKLES)

Uh, gentlemen, if
you'll excuse me.

JIYA: So are your
visions of the future,

or, like, what's going to
happen in the past, in the future?

- If you know what I mean.
- I do.

You and I,

we can time travel

without the machine.

Like Joan of Arc,

Florence Nightingale,

Kirk Cameron,

we've been given
a gift from God.

They're scared of us.

That's why they have me here.

No, Stanley. You are here
because you won't look after yourself.

At my expense, I might add.

Look, something bad is gonna
happen to someone I care about,

and I need to stop it.

But the vision comes in pieces.

Because you're fighting it.

I once spent an
entire week in 1912.

It's like a dream you
don't want to come out of.

You need to let your mind relax.

Let yourself go
on the mental trip.

How do I do that?

Do you have access to a
sensory deprivation tank?

(LAUGHING)

Sure, let me just
order one from SkyMall.

Um, no, I don't.

You need to find
a very quiet place,

so you can focus on the vision.

Then, after a while,

(CHUCKLES)

you'll get better
at falling into them.

Like this...

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

- All right, show's over.
- No, no, I have more questions.

He could be in this
catatonic state for days.

This is why I didn't
want you to see him.

You do not want
to end up like this.

Do you?

Come on.

(DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)

I'm so sorry, old friend.

(CHATTER AND LAUGHTER)

WYATT: Hey, you!

Let me have one of those drinks.

That's the accent
you're going with?

Why? What's wrong with that?

Nothing. If you're Keanu
Reeves in The Devil's Advocate.

- You watch way too many movies.
- What did you find out?

The Confederate
Officer in the other room,

he had sudden and damn near magical
knowledge of where the Union camp was.

- He's the sleeper agent.
- Right.

(HORSE WHINNYING)

Is Harriet going to wait for
Flynn and Lucy to get back?

Well, she said she'd
wait as long as she could.

- MAN: We've got runners.
- (GUNSHOTS)

Which is apparently
not very long.

- (GUNSHOT)
- (HORSE WHINNYING)

Awful late for a walk, ain't it?

- (GUNS COCKING)
- Uh-uh-uh-uh.

You know what we do to
runaways around here, don't you?

Age don't matter.

We gotta teach y'all your place.

- (ALL GASP)
- (GRUNTS)

Wanna tell me my place again?

(GUN COCKS)

(MEN SHOUTING)

Maybe it's Lucy with our backup?

Right. When have things
ever, ever gone that well for us?

- Wyatt.
- They're Union spies.

- Get down.
- Kill 'em!

- (MEN GRUNTING)
- (GLASS SHATTERING)

WYATT: You're outgunned, pal.

That's a Colt Army Model,
forty-four caliber, six-shot,

I got a Glock 9mm,

three extra clips in my pocket.

I can do this all damn night.

But you,

by my count, have one shot left.

(PANTING)

(WOMAN CRYING)

All it takes is one.

I just want my bag.

- You give it to me and she lives.
- (WHIMPERING)

Hey, David Duke,
looking for this?

- Just toss it to me.
- Sure.

No problem. Catch.

- No!
- (WOMAN SCREAMS)

Don't move.

Don't move or I'll shoot her.

Do not move or she dies!

(WOMAN SCREAMS)

- I quit, by the way.
- (CRYING)

(GRUNTING)

(GRUNTS)

(RUNNING FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

Word is, all them plantation
folks up river are running off.

(CHUCKLES)

Lord, they scared of us now.

Truth be told, I'm a little scared,
too. You are a total badass.

What'd you call me?

Uh, no, sorry. That's a
compliment where I'm from.

I still don't know
where that is.

Not anywhere close.

When I saw you coming,
during one of my spells,

you were like angels
appearin' outta nowhere.

Like you was sent
straight from heaven.

These visions you have...

Do they always come true?

Not always.

Sometimes they
make no sense at all.

Like, when you
appeared outta nowhere,

you were steppin' out
of a giant metal ball.

Go figure that one
out. (CHUCKLES)

Well, I gotta go.

My friends, the
other Union spies,

we have to check in with
our commanding officer.

Can I just tell you,

what an honor it
is to have met you?

I wish I had some
advice for you,

about how to make money, or
something to make your life better,

because if there's anyone
who deserves it, it's you.

My only desire is to live free.

The rest'll work itself out.

(WHIRRING)

Looks like the Combahee River Raid
is now the Willow Glen Plantation Raid.

A decisive win for the
Union, led by Harriet Tubman.

(CHUCKLES)

I'm gonna go check on Jessica.

FLYNN: Oh, uh,
congratulations, by the way.

Lucy gave me the news.

You're going to
be a great father.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Hey.

So, you told Flynn.

It was a long
ride to Port Royal.

I mean, he was gonna find
out sooner or later, wasn't he?

Yeah. Whatever.

Okay.

Fine.

We're good.

Great.

(CHUCKLES)

Should I be hearing something?

Maybe a little indigestion.

(BOTH LAUGH)

I had the weirdest interaction
with Agent Christopher today.

What do you mean?

Well, I told her I was pregnant.

And then she said that I should
leave, for the health of the baby.

(CHUCKLES) Can you believe that?

She wasn't supposed to
talk about that until I got back.

You knew?

She told you about this?

Well, what did you say?

I said, if you go, I go.

Good!

(SCOFFS)

Jess...

But look, maybe...

Maybe she has a point.

What? Why?

There's gonna be
doctor's appointments

and Lamaze classes.

Right? And I want things
to be normal for you,

and for our baby.

- But you won't be there.
- I will be.

As often as I can. I'll
check in all the time.

You are the one who said
it's not safe for me out there.

No, we'll keep
security on you 24/7.

You're hiding something for me.

No, it's not true.

It's me, Wyatt, I know when
you're hiding something.

You've spent our entire
marriage hiding things from me.

And I told you, I cannot
be married to a state secret.

Please. Please do not do this.

(SIGHS)

I'm not keeping
anything from you.

I swear.

(EXHALES)

Hey, I'm headed
to bed. Long day.

Cool. Yeah. I'm just, uh,

running a systems check
to see if everything is okay.

Is everything okay, with you?

Long day worrying about
you dying in the Civil War.

I worry about you, too.

You know, Harriet
Tubman had visions.

She told me she saw us coming,

seemed to see the Lifeboat too.

Swore up and down it was
coming from a higher power.

God.

Do you believe her?

I'm not ready to go all
Pentecostal or anything,

but maybe something was sending
her and you these visions for a reason.

Maybe we...

I need to pay more attention.

Yeah.

Yeah, like, if I can find a
way to see more of the vision,

then maybe we can
find a way to stop it.

Exactly.

If we can't run from
it, we'll run right into it.

Sounds like a plan.

(KISSES)

Don't stay up too late.

Okay.

(EXHALES DEEPLY)

(MACHINERY THUDDING)

(MACHINE WHIRRING)

(LIFEBOAT POWERING UP)

Jiya.

Jiya, what are you doing?

Stop. Don't come any closer.

Jessica?

What are you doing?
What's going on here?

I'm so sorry.

Jessica!

(GRUNTS)
