Zoo (2015–2017): Season 3, Episode 1 - No Place Like Home - full transcript

JAMIE: A decade ago, the
animal population mutated,

endangering human life on the planet.

A group of us managed
to cure the animals...

An animal expert,

a veterinary pathologist,

an Army Ranger,

a doctor,

a mercenary,

and me, an investigative journalist.

But a secretive group
called The Shepherds

released a gas that sterilized
all of humanity.



Our lead scientist was
killed trying to stop them,

so our team disbanded.

Ten years later, his
daughter has returned,

believing he may still be alive.

With the world trying to solve
the sterility problem,

a new threat has
emerged... The hybrids...

Lab-made creatures that
threatened the West Coast.

A massive barrier was constructed

to protect the rest of North America.

So we battle on many fronts,

some of us searching
for a cure to sterility,

while others try to save
as many lives as possible

in the hybrid zone.

[dogs barking]

[wind whistling]

We're good. Send them.

TESSA: Roger, roger.

Sending the penguins to the igloo.

Penguins? Really?

Just trying to keep it spicy, babe.

You know, I'm pretty sure that
penguins don't live in igloos.

Wrong. I've seen it.

Where's that, now, at a zoo?

Maybe.

Hey, we're almost there, little man.

Are you excited?

I want to go home.

Yeah, I hear that, but, uh, I'm afraid

that's not an option right now, okay?

But we're gonna find you
and your family a new home.

Somewhere safe, somewhere
beyond the barrier.

You know, Michigan,
Tennessee, who knows?

Maybe even all the way to New York, huh?

[snarling]

- MAN: They're back!
- Whoa, whoa!

Pedro, Sampson, where'd
you guys run off to?

MAN: Hybrids, incoming!

[hybrids growling]

JACKSON: Attack.

Hurry up! Keep running!

Come on! Come on!

TESSA: Everybody move.

JACKSON: Come on.

Let's go.

Let's go!

Come on!

Let's go! Let's go.

ABRAHAM: Thanks for
meeting us back here.

It's been so long.

Seven years.

CLEMENTINE: Not just
since I've seen you guys.

Since I've seen a baby.

I used to be obsessed with them.

I had, like, three dolls
that I took everywhere.

Kids still do that?

Companies even make dolls anymore?

Um, Isaac's more of a dinosaur kid.

[dog barks]

- [dog barking playfully]
- [Isaac laughing]

You guys are good parents.

Clementine, I'm sorry I
didn't recognize you earlier.

Once your grandfather gained custody,

he didn't want us to
make contact with you.

We tried, but...

he must have blamed us for
what happened to your father.

We worried maybe you did, too.

And then,

things just got so busy

with med school.

Isaac was all-consuming,

and then everything with Jackson.

I didn't come here to dig up the past.

All that matters now is finding my dad.

You think Mitch is still alive?

- For now.
- If he's alive...

then why hasn't he reached out to us?

And where's he been
hiding for ten years?

MITCH: Uh, James Buchanan,

Lincoln,

Grant...

Garfield.

♪ Back then... ♪

Why do you know so much
about the presidents?

You know that kid that
nobody talks to, right?

Well, I was the kid that
that kid didn't talk to.

So I decided,

in order to make friends, I would...

enter the sixth grade talent show.

Did you win?

Of course I didn't.

♪ I start to wonder... ♪

But after that, I was
the kid who knew stuff.

So... I just kept going.

I can't move.

Ronnie.

This is a treat.

And if it isn't Jamie Campbell,

author extraordinaire.

I haven't seen you since that dinner

when you won the Landerson Award.

Landerson Prize.

Well, it's too bad it couldn't pull

your network out of third place.

No, we came in second last month.

Well, how about I give you an exclusive

when my new book comes out
and pull you into first?

When's your next shareholder meeting?

June.

When's your new book due?

God, I'm already...

halfway through the next one,

but this one is due June 15.

[phone chimes]

Sorry, I'm expecting my editor.

Not him.

They want me put a
butterfly on the cover.

You know, the orange
one with the black...

- Monarch.
- Yeah.

What does that have
to do with your book?

Absolutely nothing, but what can I do?

It's your book, your empire.

You should fight.

Oh, Ronnie, I stopped
fighting a long time ago.

♪ At last. ♪

[Tessa breathing heavily]

JACKSON: You sure you're okay?

Yeah, for the 34th time, I'm fine.

Thanks to your clickity-click machine.

I've lost track of how many times

your lions have saved our heinies.

Yeah, so have I.

[creature roaring]

[loud, guttural snarls]

What is that?

I have no idea.

You don't happen to have any more lions

in your back pocket, do you?

I want you to get them out of here

to the safe zone as
fast as possible, okay?

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna catch him.

[sighs]

Hey!

Hey there, buddy.

[growling]

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah!

[rhino roaring]

[rhino roaring]

"C" gate, do you copy?

GUARD: Go for "C" gate.

I need a salvage truck
backed up to the gate,

doors open... I'm inbound with company!

- GUARD: Say again?
- Salvage truck,

back gate, doors open!

GUARD: You inbound with friendlies?

No, unfriendly. Very unfriendly.

[growling]

TESSA: Everybody inside.

Back up the truck.

Go, go, go!

[truck beeping]

Out of the way, now!

Get all friendlies inside the gate!

[rhino roaring]

- GUARD: Friendlies are in.
- JACKSON: Shut the gate!

[rhino roaring]

- MAN: I've got a clean shot.
- JACKSON: Do not shoot.

I repeat, do not shoot.

[glass cracks]

Let's go. Get the door.

[rhino roars]

Spicy enough for you?

[rhino roaring]

[rhino groans]

[Tessa grunts]

Call me crazy, but I think

the line about kicking the hornet's nest

also applies to stabbing angry,
prehistoric-looking monsters.

For years, all anyone
has seen are razorbacks.

And that is not a razorback.

You don't say.

Nine years ago, the IADG said

it would be impossible for them
to migrate to the United States.

Now, the West Coast is overrun

and now this.

You know, you're pretty
cute when you get fired up.

JACKSON: They're spreading way too fast.

And if we don't find
a way to stop them...

the entire world

is gonna wind up looking like Portland.

And the IADG is sending an investigator.

Why don't you ask them

what they're doing to stop the hybrids?

[sighs]: Yeah.

TESSA: That is, if you want
to spend our whole night off

talking to the fuzz.

[keypad beeps]

You're right.

They're the experts.

We'll let them handle it.

Them and Dr. Abraham Kenyatta.

[whispers]: That's
what I'm talking about.

[propellers whirring]

There he is.

My God.

- What is that?
- It looks like a stasis tank.

That would explain how he
survived the hybrid attack.

But who saved him and why?

I don't know.

All I know is he's being held

in an abandoned research
lab in Eastern Siberia.

Has he been there this whole time?

Hard to say.

ABRAHAM: Here, let me.

What is all this?

Abe has a theory

on how to reverse the
effects of the TX-gas.

Restart procreation.

He's trying to separate
something in the, um,

the NLRP2 protein.

You're doing that research here?

DARIELA: He was at U of M,

Ann Arbor, one of their top researchers.

But, um, he's actually made
great breakthroughs here.

I've made some advancements,
not breakthroughs.

Anyway, that's irrelevant.

These are the breakthroughs
that matter now.

So, this is the facility
he's being held in.

It's been abandoned for years,

but this shows continuous
electricity usage

in the eastern wing.

That must be where he is.

How did you get all this?

She stole it from the IADG.

ABRAHAM: Why would
you not just tell them

you are Mitch's daughter?

I'm sure they would
welcome you on the mission.

Safe behind the border wall.

I'm sure you think the IADG are heroes,

but something seems
off about this mission.

We need to go ourselves
without the IADG.

DARIELA: Well, that's gonna be tough.

Your intel is incomplete.

None of these have an entrance marked.

That's why I'm here.

I need your help and fast.

The IADG is on their way
to get my father right now.

We have to get there first.

MEYERS: It's him.

It's Mitch Morgan.

TECH: Look at his scars.

The tank must've regenerated his wounds.

It's incredible.

All right, let's just load him up.

Get him out of here

before we get company.

We can't. Our specs were wrong.

What?

His life support's being provided

by the tank's power source.

No battery pack.

We move it, he'll die.

We'll have to pull him out first.

Good evening, Ms. Campbell. Home?

No, Brian, not home.

that's keeping it locked.

We'd have to disconnect
the generator first,

- So stop talking and do it.

It'll be like pulling the plug

on a patient who's on life support.

We'd only have a few
minutes to get him free.

I'm not sure we can do it.

- Well, there's only one way to find out.

No, wait.

NYPD. Hands where we can see them.

[phone beeps]

POLICE OFFICER 2: Detective on site.

Good evening, Ms. Campbell.

Detective.

Jamie's not answering
or calling me back.

She still has the plane.

It is the fastest way to Siberia.

I thought you guys were a team.

A lot can change in ten years.

Especially people.

What about Jackson? Can he help us?

I'm afraid our communication
is strictly one-way.

The son of Robert Oz has many enemies.

I cannot expose him.

[centrifuge beeps]

CLEMENTINE: This protein
you're working on.

NR...

NLRP2.

Do you really think it'll
help people have babies again?

I'm hopeful.

But I don't know.

- DARIELA: Check it out.
- You found something?

Yep. And Jackson sent you this.

Grab the map.

I thought the layout looked familiar.

I worked at a black site in Poland

that shared the same structure.

Which means this hangar is the entrance.

If Mitch is being held
in the eastern wing

as your intel suggests,

we need to enter through this hangar,

find an unmarked set of stairs,

and this corridor here

should lead us right to Mitch.

We need to make sure we enter the hangar

on the north side here,

where we have the best chance of evading

any surveillance cameras.

That's how we get in.

We have everything we need now.

I'll call Emma, see if
she can stay with Isaac.

If we don't hear from Jamie,
we'll head to the airport

and charter a plane.

Is Isaac gonna be okay?

While you guys are gone?

He's a tough kid.

Does he know, you know,
what you guys used to do?

Who you were?

Abe and me, we didn't
have the best childhoods.

I think we just wanted to
give our son a normal one.

Kind of hard when you're
the last generation on Earth.

But maybe Abe's research

will change all that.

Thanks again, Dariela.

I really couldn't have
done this without you guys.

[phone beeps]

_

Dariela.

Hi, Jonah.

Well, this is a...

this is a surprise.

Does Abe know you're calling?

No.

But I have some
research you need to see.

JAMIE: You know, this
is private property.

And this is a warrant.

We've gotten reports of a
break-in near Columbus Park.

Stolen property.

Suspect matches your description.

Huh. The mayor might disagree.

I was just at a party with him
discussing the new renovations

to the museum.

Donated a wing. No big deal.

[indistinct chatter over radio]

Guys, I can take it from here.

Yes, sir.

I warned you, Jamie.

You have to stop this.

Well, I'm not your girlfriend anymore,

so what I do isn't really your concern.

It is when you're breaking the law.

The Shepherds created a gas
that sterilized the planet.

They created hybrid animals
that murdered our friends.

There's no Shepherds left.

Their leadership has all been arrested,

and the rest have scattered.

- They're not a threat.
- Yeah, thanks to me.

But one of their leaders
is still out there.

The Falcon. And they are
planning something big,

something worse than we've ever seen.

So if bending the rules is
what it takes to stop them,

- sign me up.
- Then you're no better than them.

The last Shepherd that you chased

ended up dead, remember?

What are you gonna do, arrest me?

- If I have to.
- Great. I'm sure the NYPD

would love to know they're
working with a criminal.

Jamie.

I care about you.

I always have.

I always will.

But I can't sit back and watch you

fall into darkness.

Not anymore I can't.

Do you know what I
had to do to get that?

It's over.

Tell the NYPD whatever you
want, but if I catch you again,

I will bring you in.

You're bluffing.

I'm not. Don't make me prove it.

My name is Lieutenant Myers.

Of the International
Animal Defense Group.

IADG.

We know what a traumatic experience

this has been for you, and
we know that you're eager

to get back to your family and friends.

We're just running a few tests

to make sure that you're
stable enough to travel.

How does that sound?

Great.

Okay, let's begin.

Do you know what year it is?

Do you know where you are?

That's just warm saline.

We need to raise your body temperature.

Do you remember how you got here?

Are you not answering because
you don't know the answer,

or because y-you don't
understand what I'm saying?

All right. Um...

Hey, look. We'll try something else.

Tap your, your left hand...

[touches hand]

for "yes,"

and tap your right hand

for "no."

It's like this.

Do you know what year it is?

Do you know where you are?

Do you know your name?

[children laughing]

How you doing, buddy?

Good. Now.

Good, good.

Well, if you get lost,
or you have any questions,

just ask, okay?

That thing you used
to control the lions.

How does it work?

This?

[clears throat]

Well, um...

want to know a secret?

This is just a toothpick holder.

I control the lions with my mind.

Yeah, right.

[laughs softly]

Yeah, yeah, you got me.

I have some friends who are scientists,

they developed it for me.

It's, uh, part radio,
part computer, and really,

I'm not sure how it works.
I'm just glad it does.

You know, maybe one of these
days, I'll let you try it.

- Cool.
- All right, I'll catch you later.

I got to do a thing.

MAN: All perimeter details, contact.

Update status.

Here for the hybrid?

MAN: Update status.

[gate opening]

MAN: IADG coming through.

The IADG has been looking
for you for a long time.

You were last seen on
the island of Pangaea,

ten years ago.

We're here to help you.

But you have to trust us, okay?

The pen.

You want the pen.

Yeah, yeah.

I need you, too.

Oh, Clem. [sighs]

Whoever it is that you think

I'm sorry, but he's gone.

Not according to the IADG.

I have proof.

I can't help you.

Yes, you can.

No, I can't.

Okay?

I can't do this again.

I went to Pangaea, Clem.

I-I spent years chasing down every lead,

hoping against hope

that, that Mitch would
still be out there

and alive somewhere j-just
waiting for us to find him,

but you know what? He never was.

It's real this time.

I promise.

And I know there's a part
of you that believes me,

that never stopped believing.

No, he's not ready.

Okay, look.

Dr. Morgan,

I'm afraid this is gonna
come as a shock to you,

but there's somebody here

who's been waiting to talk to you.

I can't believe you just let her go.

It's not like I had a choice.

Look, we'll just have
to catch up with her.

- What the...?
- [squishing]

What is that?

It's a sample of the new hybrid

Jackson sent me.

But it was just a few drops of blood.

It's growing.

Yes.

But into what?

[sighs] Do we really have
the rest of the night off?

Mmm. Don't jinx it.

We were out for ten
days with that group.

I'm gonna sleep for
eight straight hours.

Would you settle for six?

I could be convinced to settle for six.

Hey.

I need to know what's
on that drive, ASAP.

Somebody went through a

TESSA: Who's with the fancy coat?

Is that the IADG investigator?

She got here fast.

- She's leaving even faster.
- Hey!

Excuse me, miss?

I'll get started on it
right away, Detective.

In fact, if you bring me a coffee,

it'll be ready when you get back.

Deal.

[rapid beeping]

Where are Abe and Dariela?

Isaac got sick. They
had to take care of him.

They'll meet up with us later.

You look different.

It's been awhile.

Well, here goes nothing.

Come on in. We'll be wheels up in five.

Food or-or water?

Water, you've... you've had

I'm sure that you have questions.

I... [sniffles]

I had a lot, too.

When they first told me they found you,

I couldn't believe it.

And... part of me still doesn't,
