Zoo (2015–2017): Season 3, Episode 4 - Welcome to the Terra Dome - full transcript

JAMIE: Ten years ago, the
animal population mutated,

endangering human life on the planet.

[animals roaring]

Our team managed to cure the animals,

but at a terrible cost.

In an attempt to return
the planet to the animals,

a secretive group called The Shepherds

released a gas that
sterilized all of humanity.

And then, lab-made
creatures... called hybrids...

Devastated the West Coast.

So a massive barrier was constructed



to protect the rest of North America...

but new breeds have started to appear,

[squawking]

so we reassembled our team.

We battle on many fronts,

searching for a cure to sterility

while racing to stop the hybrids

and a brutal terrorist

with a plan to end the human race.

The fight for mankind's
survival has just begun.

[snarling]

Previously on Zoo...

NEWSWOMAN: Authorities are
searching for this woman,

Abigail Westbrook.



Who also happens to be my sister.

LEANNE: I can get Isaac back.

Let's talk about Clementine Lewis.

Please, God, please.

[heartbeat pounding]

LOGAN: I tracked the
hybrid's flight path.

JACKSON: Flew to Mexico?

There, stop.

That's Abigail.

Two new species pop up
in the span of 48 hours?

And Abigail is at the center of it.

JACKSON: Mitch?

- Jackson.
- You're alive?

Well, this is more than a little weird.

And that thing just started moving.

JACKSON: We got to get out of here!

[screeching]

_

[hybrids screeching]

[whirring rapidly]

MITCH: This must be
what's drawing the hybrids.

- [zaps]
- Ah.

I'm just gonna assume
there's no "off" switch.

That can't be good.

Is anyone else freaked out by
the fact that they're flying?

- That's not all they do.
- How about let's go?

Come on!

[hybrids roaring, screeching]

Oh!

Whoa!

Chopper out back.

Let's go! Let's go!

Let's go!

Come on!

Whoa, whoa!

Come on, let's go!

MITCH: So, what brings you
boys south of the border?

We're tracking a woman

who bombed my refugee camp in Portland.

But more importantly,
where the hell you been?

Hibernated in a healing tank.

Rescued by a fake daughter.

Shot real daughter.

Found an evil Shepherd
device inside my skull.

Brain surgery with a farm animal.

Freaky new memories brought me here.

Really? That's it?

And for us, that's a Tuesday.

[hybrid crashing]

[squawking]

Oh. Sarge is not gonna be happy.

Plan B. Let's get to the truck.

[hybrids screeching]

[hybrids crashing]

Leaving so soon, brother?

Gonna miss the big show.

That doesn't sound right.

That's not good.

Home sweet plane.

She's gonna need some

serious TLC if she's
gonna be road worthy

any time soon.

Looks like we snagged a passenger.

Okay, we're wheels up in five.

JACKSON: I guess you can shove

a cockpit into a tablet

when you've made a fortune
off of people's pain.

Look, I know

it's cool to hate me right now,

but I really am sorry.

Just save it.

Right now we need to figure out
what those hybrids are doing.

[explosion]

MITCH: That might be our answer.

Uh, you might want to
speed up that takeoff time.

_

Order up. Eggs benny, extra runny.

You heard what Leanne said.

Clem is a thief.

I know this is hard...

but if turning her over to
Reiden gets us Isaac back,

that's a deal we should
be willing to take.

We only know what Leanne told us.

Why believe a woman who stole our son?

You can't be serious about this.

Abe, we are talking
about Mitch's daughter.

How could we ever do that?

You can't just sit
there and say nothing.

Not now.

You guys know what you want?

Or do you need a little more time?

JACKSON: Which insane
thing should we start with?

The, uh, new hybrid species
or exploding volcanoes?

Do we know that the new hybrids
caused the volcano to explode?

MITCH: I seem to remember

a sloth that could
make earthquakes happen.

That ringing a bell with anybody?

So, uh, this is who we are looking for.

Her name is Abigail Westbrook

and so far, tracking
her down has been, uh...

I recognize her. She's a Shepherd.

All right. Now... [clears throat]

she used this disc to operate
the device back in the cabin.

Yeah, whatever that device was,

it was attracting the hybrids
to its location like a, uh...

like a...

Beacon.

Yeah, that.

Yeah, so more than one disc

means more than one beacon.

The more beacons that she activates,

the more the hybrids will spread.

But no one's ever seen a flying hybrid.

Where are they spreading from?

- [sighs]
- MITCH: I have a feeling

that the answer to that
question is gonna be real weird.

JACKSON: So...

this is the previous
hybrid population density

on the West Coast.

Here's what happened after
she activated that beacon.

Fortunately, inside the hybrid zone.

Abe said that these things
can reproduce asexually

from a single drop of blood,

which means exponential growth
once they get to a new area.

Now that we have flying hybrids,

this is what would
happen if she got a beacon

east of the barrier.

[computer trilling rapidly]

And this is what it would
look like if she got a beacon

all the way to Europe.

So, how long till Hybri-geddon?

[sighs] Based on these calculations...

90 days.

[computer trilling rapidly]

Here with Leanne Ducovny,
the Reiden CEO responsible

for the controversial abductions

of thousands of children
from their homes.

Since then, you've had protestors

outside your office every day

and mounting pressure
to allow the government

access to your facilities.

These are people's children.

Don't you think some
transparency could help?

Let me stop you right there.

First of all, "the youth
rejuvenation program"

isn't a punishment, it's a promise.

It's a promise to solve sterility.

So, you see yourself as
the savior of mankind?

[video rewinds]

Savior of mankind.

[video rewinds]

Savior of mankind.

So, been dying to ask you
guys, how was my funeral?

Very tasteful.

What song did you guys pick?

"Wind Beneath My Wings"?

"Who Let the Dogs Out."

Yeah, that was the last
time we were all together.

After you were gone, things just, um...

weren't the same.

MITCH: So...

you decided to move to the
middle of hybrid country?

Well, a couple years later,

a regular life just wasn't
really an option for me, so...

MITCH: Well, that can happen

if you're the son of the guy
who created worldwide sterility.

Yeah, circumstances were, um...

I... had to get away.

Plus, people out there need help.

You know? Someone's got to
clean up that Shepherd mess.

May as well be me.

Well, at least now
you won't have to play

bumbling-but-effective
hero on your own.

"Who Let the Dogs
Out," that's very good.

Wait, Jackson.

Please, I... I'm so sorry.

So am I.

- Can I explain?
- We have to figure out

what's going on with the new hybrids

and we have to find Abigail.

MITCH: How the hell did these
things cause a volcano to erupt?

Biology of this hybrid is nuts.

Look at the size of that ear canal.

It's incredibly similar to Marsupialia

that use echolocation.

Abe was onto something with
that unique hybrid frequency.

They're using it to communicate.

So... if we can reverse
engineer the frequency,

maybe we can find one of those beacons,

track down Abigail, right?

Stop Abigail, we stop the hybrid spread.

That thing is really cool.

Um... Abe is a sex doctor?

Which is gross enough, but
why-why is he studying hybrids?

He's not a sex doctor, he's a
reproductive endocrinologist.

He thinks that hybrids are the key

to solving the world's sterility.

Yeah, there's a lot going on.

And seeing as I've had to learn

the biology of an entirely new species

on the fly...

my obvious time away

from current technology...
Oh, and the fact

that Abigail could strike at any moment,

I feel like it might be
a good time to bring...

That's a lot of words to
say that you need Abe's help.

[quietly]: I'm gonna need
a little grace period.

I'm post-tank Mitch.

Let's go to Michigan,

find a sex doctor.

_

[sirens wailing, people shouting]

CAL: It's anarchy outside, Leanne.

These protesters, they
want their kids back.

And if it means burning
down an entire city block,

they'll do it.

Wake up, Cal.

Flying hybrids are a reality,

and sterility isn't
magically going away.

With these twin threats, human beings

could be an endangered
species in ten years.

You want to save mankind,

you have to make tough decisions.

We need to earn the trust of the public.

The board and I are unanimous.

You will allow a full
and complete inspection

by government officials.

There are dangers here
that you don't understand.

I don't care, Leanne!

You make this work.

And if you can't,

we'll find someone who can.

[door opens, closes]

Should I set up the
inspection appointments?

Yes.

And double security outside.

Revoke all non-essential keycards.

Okay.

JACKSON: Hey guys, we're touching
down in Michigan in ten.

A little bit stressed?

Yeah, not all family
reunions are pleasant.

Are you talking about what
happened with Jackson earlier?

What was that all about?

It's a long story.

Try me.

Okay. Five years ago,
Jackson went into hiding.

That's not that big.

Well, he didn't go because he wanted to.

When my book was published,

I gave everyone
pseudonyms to protect them.

And it worked for everyone but Jackson.

Didn't matter that my
book said he was innocent,

he's the son of Robert Oz.

And the Shepherd hunters wanted blood.

Okay.

So that is sort of big.

But wait, don't you work
for the Shepherd hunters?

I work with them, when it serves me.

[phone chimes]

_

CLEMENTINE: Everything all right?

Yes, everything's fine.

[turbine whirring]

[tires screech]

What do we tell them when
they start asking about Isaac?

If Mitch were to find out about Clem...

Just let me do the talking.

Dariela!

- Jackson.
- Abe.

Ha, ha, rafiki.

[laughs]

[dog barking]

Who's this?

Pizza.

My friend.

It's been so long.

- [Abraham laughs]
- Yeah.

- Oh...
- [Jackson laughs]

[sighs]

How is Isaac?

That hybrid sample that you needed, Abe,

I wasn't able to track another one down.

It's okay. And the Isaac
situation is being handled.

Abe, if Isaac needs any help,

you know that we will
do whatever it takes.

It's complicated.

I'll fill you in later, I promise.

Just stay with me on this one.

I'll let you two catch up.

Come on, Pizza.

[Pizza barks]

You being on this side of
the barrier is dangerous.

Yeah, but I had to.

Why would leave that protection you had?

You had a life there.

You were seeing someone.

Tessa, yes?

Was, yes. Not anymore, I, uh...

told her everything,
and her reaction was...

less than desirable.

I'm sorry, rafiki.

Hey, it's okay.

I had to rip the Band-Aid
off at some point.

Couldn't fight this war
from the hybrid zone forever.

Now come on, let's get the
band back together, huh?

[laughs]

Ah...

There he is.

Our very own Mr. Spock.

Like in part two when he
dies, and then part three...

Yeah, I-I get the reference.

You know, when I found out

that you let Max raise my kid,

I almost went back into the grave...

[laughs, stammers]

I can't... [laughs]

Even a pack of wild razorbacks
couldn't keep you down.

What did you do, fight them
off with your bare hands?

No, but I like that version better.

Dr. Kenyatta.

Detective.

Dariela.

JAMIE: Hi, guys.

It's great to see you.

Jamie.

I-I'm sorry I kind of ditched
you guys the other day.

ABRAHAM: Ditched?

That would be one way of putting it.

I couldn't risk your lives.

You have a son.

I saw the news about
Reiden taking the kids.

Is Isaac...?

He's safe. He's with his Aunt Isabel

in the Upper Peninsula.

Great.

Hey, can you toss me
that 'lectro wrench?

Didn't realize you were into cars.

Guilty as charged.

Total gearhead.

Angry, sad, lonely.

Whatever I was feeling growing
up, cars were always there.

- [tool whirring]
- Always the same.

I guess, I guess they helped
me make sense of things.

And given the current
state of the world,

I could use a little
bit of that right now.

Couldn't we all?

Socket driver?

- This one?
- Yeah.

Thanks.

So what's it like being
back with your dead dad?

- [tool whirs]
- Weird.

What's it like being one of
the last mothers on Earth?

[exhales]

Weird.

It's been a tough couple years
since we all saw each other.

I know you haven't
had an easy go, either.

That's true, but... but
everybody's different.

You never know how you're
gonna react in a tough situation

until you're in it, you know?

[tool whirring]

We all have our regrets.

Done things we're not proud of.

We all have our secrets.

All my regrets are behind me.

Well, sometimes our
regrets catch up to us.

[tool whirring]

ABRAHAM: Now, if I'm correct,

this should feed the signal
I recorded from the hybrid egg

through this subject's larynx

synthesizing a sort of outgoing call.

And once it bounces back,

we should, theoretically,

get the location of the next beacon.

[computer beeping]

It may take a while to get an answer.

This hybrid frequency is
like nothing I've ever seen.

So we could be looking

at a highly evolved
form of communication,

similar to how octopuses

use their changing colors
as mating signals, right?

It's recently been proven
that their changes in color

are actually a complex language.

Great.

Even better.

But it could also be similar to, uh,

the groupthink of honey bee colonies.

The prevailing theory now is that bees

use myriad odors as communication.

Did the entire scientific world
just implode while I was gone?

I mean, the big ones
are still around right?

The second law of thermodynamics?

It's more like second guideline.

Theory of relativity?

It's still a theory.

[laughs]: Relatively.

That was cute.

What about gravity?

Gravity still a thing?

Define "thing."

Shut up. I'm going to get a drink.

I know that's still a thing.

NEW ANCHOR: In the face
of widespread outrage

and protest, Reiden CEO Leanne Ducovny

had this to say in defense
of her company's abduction

and internment of children.

LEANNE: Mark my words.

Humanity will flourish again.

MITCH: Well, that's fun.

This guy has supracoracoideus muscles

that look just like the
ones in hummingbirds.

Well, that makes sense, for flight.

Yeah, but look.

He's got an entirely extra set.

Now, these things expand and
contract at super high speeds,

but they're totally unnecessary
for the way this guy flies.

Wait a minute, you
said these new hybrids

were diving under the ground

in Mexico, correct?

Well, what if they
used these new muscles

underground, en masse?

If there were enough of them, uh...

compound vibrations
could potentially cause

massive acoustic fluidization,

which would trigger

volcanic eruptions...

Which did trigger a volcanic eruption.

And Abigail can summon them at will.

[alert beeping]

We found a beacon.

It's moving.

She must be transporting it.

JACKSON: Abigail's
heading to New York City.

Okay. I'll alert the department,

we'll get barricades set up

in a ten-mile radius around city.

This barrier's been
protecting the East Coast.

There are people this side of it

who haven't even seen a hybrid before.

Yeah, well, if these things
fly over those barriers,

they're gonna see a whole lot of them.

As they get eaten.

If the hybrids get into the city,

the East Coast could fall in days.

We have to go there.

_

Who's The Falcon?

Yeah, listen, I'm already
aware of your whole,

"he puts the lotion in the
basket" situation downstairs,

so... it's a little late
to save your reputation.

Okay.

There are two Shepherds

that I haven't been able to track down.

One is Mr. Duncan, who is a ghost,

and the other is The Falcon,

who is apparently ascended to
the upper echelons of power.

But, after all this time,

The Falcon has remained out of reach.

Is that a Tom Collins?

Since when is that your drink?

Well, a few things have
changed in the last ten years.

Yeah, I noticed.

What happened to you?

I guess I just always thought that if...

I could tell people the truth,
that things would change.

But it didn't stop Reiden
from killing people,

didn't stop the Shepherds.

The same people that were in
power then are in power now.

And I got really sick of
not seeing justice done.

So, I went out and did it myself.

All right, I'm still adjusting
to the new super Jamie.

I mean, for you it's been ten years.

For me, what? We set some
birds loose on a beach,

I took a nap, you cracked my skull open.

How is that, by the way?

To be honest, I don't know.

But, um, this quest
thing that you're on,

it just seems a little dark for you.

Well, I guess there...

wasn't a whole lot to look forward to.

How about now?

♪

Earlier, what you said about
handing over Clem to Reiden,

I know this is about Isaac,

but now that we're all
back together, seeing her,

we have to find another way.

There may not be another way
and we're running out of time.

We just need time to think.

Not making a decision
is still a decision.

If we let this deadline
pass, that choice is gone

and we lose our only chance
of getting Isaac back.

ABIGAIL: I don't understand men like you.

[distant siren wailing]

World hangs over an abyss

and yet you protect order.

Imagine you find it honorable.

Band playing on while the Titanic sinks

into the cold depths.

But honor is a lie you tell yourself.

I think you're afraid.

I think you enforce that order

because you don't know what else to do.

Suppose it gave you purpose.

Lucky for me...

it also gave you this.

Well, that was fun.

Can we go do it in the cockpit now?

After I converted the plane to tablet,

I had the cockpit turned
into a breakfast nook.

Can you say that again,
please, but just slower?

Um, rain check.

I got to go do something first.

- Jackson, look, we can't go on like this.
- Just stop.

I know I put a target on your back

for the last five years,

and you're angry and it's warranted.

I can keep apologizing.

This isn't about me, Jamie.

Abe sacrificed everything
for me, to keep my safe.

His marriage, his job, his son.

And I will never be able
to repay him for that.

So, I just hope that

that best-seller list was worth it.

Come with me. We need
to take a little walk.

[Jackson sighs]

Okay, what are we doing?

- Mansdale?
- Oh, look.

The coward son of Oz.

Talk again and I cut your eye out.

This is what I've been
protecting you from.

What are you talking about?

Protecting me?

Why do the Shepherd hunters
think you're in Asia?

Who scrubbed your photo from
every server on the planet?

The only thing keeping
you on this side of a cage

or worse is me.

That's very generous of you.

Except you're the reason

that they're chasing
me in the first place.

You have a choice to make.

If I am the grand villain of
your life, you can shoot me.

Or you can shoot one of the
men who tried to end the world.

Or...

you can accept that what's past is past

and move on with whatever
future we all have left.

Hey, Mitch.

Did you know that Jamie is
keeping Mansdale prisoner

in the bottom of this plane?

Yeah.

And, on the one hand,
it is dark and horrible.

On the other hand, the Shepherds did

almost wipe out all of humanity.

Oh, and also

the whole vigilante thing
is kind of working for me.

Mitch, this is not a joke.

We have to keep an eye on her.

Okay.

[phone beeps]

This is Dariela Kenyatta.

LEANNE: I'm pleased to hear from you.

Have you considered my offer?

Yes. The deal is on.

By day's end, you'll
have Clementine Lewis.

Perfect.

And by day's end, you'll
be holding your son again.

[phone vibrates, beeps]

_

[protestors shouting]

PROTESTOR: Evil people!

[protestors shouting]

I got the officer coming through.

[protestors shouting]

Take this. Use it to track the beacon.

I've had luck blocking
the hybrid signal before,

but this beacon is a
whole different beast.

Okay, so we're gonna
work on a solution here

and we'll talk you through
it once you find the beacon.

ABRAHAM: In the meantime,

use these things for signal dampening.

Wrap it in tinfoil.

Use the copper wire to...

Yeah, I got it.

Make it all electric-y.

[horns blaring]

[tires screech]

[tracker beeping]

Okay, we're close.

That thing's pretty slick.

Dr. Abe just whipped it
up in a matter of minutes.

You must be impressed.

Well, it's not that amazing.

You jealous of somebody
out-sciencing you?

No.

Well, maybe.

Anyway, he's got a ten-year jump on me.

This way.

Going somewhere?

After all my tune-ups, it turns out

the truck is just
missing a fuel cell relay.

It must've come loose when we
were getting out of that cabin.

Luckily, I know a few
good garages in the area.

I don't think you should
go out by yourself.

Let me come with you.

[chuckles] I appreciate
the concern, but...

I think I got this one.

[siren wails]

Abigail's setting off a
beacon inside Reiden Tower?

What does she want with Reiden?

I don't know.

But somehow, we got
to get past these cops.

Anybody got a plan for that?

♪

Coming through.

I need you on your
best behavior in there.

What, you don't trust me?

These two are with me.

MITCH: Boys, guess what?

Abigail's gunning for Reiden Tower.

So whatever you're cooking
up, better make it fast.

Yes, we're on it.

Although it seems backwards,

- saving Reiden Tower.
- We're not saving Reiden.

We're saving New York City

and, perhaps the entire East Coast.

All right, so, look, this is hopefully

what Mitch has access to inside Reiden.

Okay. We'll need to boost
our hybrid signal to match

the intensity of the beacon.

Lemon juice?

It's a good conductor,
but why do we have so much?

Apparently, Jamie makes
a mean Tom Collins.

It's nice to know she had
so much time for hobbies

in between destroying lives.

[sniffs]

You lost a lot because of her, Abe.

You need to stop using me as an excuse.

Jamie was just doing what
she thought was right.

Despite everything that's happened,

I'm glad we're back together.

No matter how messy it
gets, we're still a family.

You, me, Jamie, Dariela, Mitch...

Clem.

What's going on, Abe?

What aren't you telling me?

I need to find Dariela.

Abe, we need to talk.

I'll be right back.

Just, uh, use the electrical tape

and the lemon juice, okay?

Abe, there's something
I need to tell you.

No, no.

You were right.

There's no way we can do this.

No matter how much we want Isaac back,

we cannot betray Mitch and Clem.

[sighs]

No matter what happens between us,

Isaac is still our son.

And we will find a way to get him back.

Together.

Okay?

MITCH: Guys, that's her.

NYPD! Stop!

This is Detective Hale.
I need a complete lockdown

of Reiden Global now.

[alarm blaring]

Split up.

When we find Abigail, let me do my job.

I don't need you going all
Kill Bill on her ass.

Jamie?

[alarm blaring]

Logan, I got her.

Southwest staircase, heading up.

Mitch.

How do you know my name?

That's the least of the things I know.

Okay, wait.

Uh, b-before you do that,

let's, uh, let's talk this out.

[device whirring]

You're bound by the
edicts of the old order,

but I'm going beyond.

Beyond the constraints of this planet,

beyond the regime of humanity,

beyond the concept of
life as you understand it.

I'm going to create a new world.

And I'm bringing my hybrids with me.

So you're like an evil
queen in a cartoon movie.

You have a choice, Mitch.

Between the old dead way

and the beyond.

It's time to make it.

Wait, wait, no, no, no!

No, don't... ah!

Logan, she activated the device.

She's on the 15th floor.
You can still catch her.

[tires screech]

[engine turns off]

[grunts]

[tires screech]

[line ringing]

DARIELA: Hello?

We got her.

Take her to the drop.

Once Leanne has her, I'll send payment.

[phone beeps]

_

- All right, Abe,
- Jackson.

I'm ready for you.

JACKSON: So you're gonna need
to find some electrical tape

and then a whole lot of lemon juice.

- [tracker beeping]
- What?

Uh, guys?

Either this thing's broken

or there's a swarm of
hybrids heading for us.

[hybrids screeching]

NYPD. Freeze!

[screeching in distance]

[grunts]

Okay. Got some tape.

Don't know what I'm gonna
do about the lemon juice.

We need to leave now.

Little busy.

- Where's Jamie?
- Where's Abigail?

I lost them both.

You're a detective. Go detect them.

Hybrids have overrun the building.

We need to leave now.

We're either gonna need
a whole lot of lemon juice

or a whole new plan.

Guess that means new plan.

[muffled screeching]

Wh-What?

- Oh!
- [bullets ricocheting]

Are you crazy?!

It was worth a shot.

Was it?

[banging, screeching continues]

I have another idea.

[gas hisses]

Okay, we're good.

What do you think,
middle of the Atlantic?

Yeah.

Let's see if these turkeys can swim.

It's actually working.

Yeah. You're welcome.

[screeching]

- [elevator bell dings]
- Here's a tip:

try firing your weapon
at bad guys instead of me.

Maybe you'll lose less suspects.

Thank you.

Detective. You should come with me.

[protestors shouting]

JACKSON: Something's wrong.

The drone's losing altitude.

Must be the battery.

Can't handle the extra
weight of the beacon.

Well, if we, if we
don't do something fast,

it's not gonna make it to the ocean.

Do you think Jamie still
has that harpoon crossbow

on the plane?

[camera snapping]

What the hell happened?

She got popped while the
building was on lockdown.

Do you have any suspects?

Yeah, we got one in custody.

She asked for you.

Uh, no. This has got to be a mistake.

She's-she's with us.

No, it's not.

I did it.

And I would do it again.

She was The Falcon.

[handcuffs rattle]

You have the right to remain silent.

Is that really necessary?

Anything you say can and
will be used against you

in a court of law. You have
the right to an attorney,

and to have an attorney
present during any questioning.

[phone ringing]

Still no answer.

- [phone chimes]
- Nothing from Dariela either.

What the hell's going on?

Reiden seems to be a no-show.

And my black market contact

says that there is a bounty out on her

for quadruple what
Dariela was paying, so...

I think we can make some money here.

Let's do this.

[air rushing]

[alarm blaring]

- Good?
- You're good.

The drone is losing altitude.

Just a little lower.

We need to fly below the drone.

DARIELA: Here it comes!

Don't fire until the last minute.

Okay.

[hybrids screeching]

Wait.

Wait!

There's the drone.

Now!

[line snaps]

Aah!

[grunting]

We got you!

[loud screeching]

We got bigger problems.
