He gave the order to take us out and kill us all, men and women alike.
We had no choice.
We call them Advanced Cultivars.
Why did we develop them in the first place?
Some of the early-pattern ACs came with the advance military missions
to test survivability.
We were looking for genetic patterns to help us survive.
What do you want from me, Rudi?
To tell you face to face that some day I shall destroy you.
It has been suggested you be given a place on General Council.
Second chance. That's what this place is all about.
That's Berger for you.
If he were straightforward, it wouldn't be a problem.
I consider myself at war with your people, but not with you.
If you ever want to speak to me, send up a flare from beyond the perimeter.
It'll be seen.
What did Rudi speak to you about?
The day they thought they were all going to die.
We all thought we were going to die. My children DID die.
Look!
What do you want?
Don't take another step!
- I'm going in. - OK.
Who are you?
What are you doing here?
I said don't move.
'.. And they've been kind enough to confirm the rumours
'that were flying around Forthaven.
'Beyond the city walls, alive and well, are a bunch of supermen.
'They're called the Advanced Cultivars and apparently they're angry...
'very angry.
'So thanks for that, Mr President.
'Guess we'll all be sleeping with the light... '.
Expeditionaries called it in around dawn.
Seems like he must have been caught out there when a whiteout hit.
Poor bastard. Concussion, mild head trauma.
If he's wounded, shouldn't he be in the medical centre?
Let's just say, at this stage, it's wise to take precautions.
Are you not going to let him return to the AC camp?
When the time is right, of course.
I think the ACs know that they're only alive
because Mitchell disobeyed Council orders.
They're not going to forget that.
And until I'm sure his presence in this city is an accident...
I'll make sure PAS keeps an eye on him.
Thank you, Cass.
Did you go to bed or did you spend the whole night working?
No, of course I went to bed. Thanks for your concern, though.
In an ideal world, you know, there'd be a sunflower growing in this.
You probably don't remember,
but you used to love them when you were little.
Before you go out, there's something I've been meaning to give you.
I, um...
.. I had this made for you when I arrived.
It's, um...
It was the first time I'd stepped onto this planet, the first rock I picked up.
It's stupid, really, but, um... I saved it for when you arrived.
OK.
Like I said, it's stupid, really.
Well, then, good luck with the work.
Figured you might be hungry.
Yeah, not exactly gourmet dining, but it'll do the job.
We're low on seed samples. We've used thousands,
but our success rate is still only in double figures.
And when we run out, we can't go back for more - gone for ever.
So many species lost. I've been running modifications on them,
seeing if I can find a way to...
I just don't understand how some seem to flourish, but most fail.
As with the ACs.
Seemingly able to reproduce despite the sterility programme,
yet we struggle.
Yup. Only one reported pregnancy in four months - Marie Doherty.
I'm continuing to perform tests on the samples we took from the AC baby,
but I need more data.
The AC in the secure centre? You want to run tests on him as well?
Yes.
Richard, they're not toys for us to play with.
Agreed. And I don't want to do anything to cause him harm or discomfort,
but DNA samples from a grown male would be very useful.
We're trying to ensure the future of our race,
and that has to come above everything else.
Richard, are you OK?
I'm fine.
Are you injured?
Damn it!
We've got a runaway. AC has escaped,
heading into the belly of the transporter.
PAS are making sure all the exits are sealed.
I need you to find him, Cass, as fast as you can,
but approach with caution, you hear me?
I'll do my best. It's like a maze down here.
Are you OK?
Have you been in an accident?
I don't know.
Come on, then. Let's get you cleaned up.
It's OK. Don't worry.
Right. There we are.
Now, stand still, you.
- No! - It's just water.
You're one of them, aren't you? An AC.
Do you have a name?
Elijah.
That's a nice name, that. Now, you stop squirming about.
I had to do this all the time for my kids before...
Well, we were unlucky.
No! Please... no!
Not sleep, please.
Get up, please.
Please not sleep. Please.
Please, get up.
Please! Please!
Whoa! Whoa! Slow down. Where are you going?
More chance of finding him if we spread out.
Look, you didn't see the size of this fella.
It's not my fault if you can't keep up.
Sure, I know, but I'd just be less worried if you were behind me.
Do you hear that?
Need a medic, fast as you can.
Sluice room, corridor 5, lower transporter.
She's still breathing.
It's not his fault. He was just scared.
Try not to talk, please.
An exit door's been found damaged and open on the lower south section.
So he's out there on the loose in Forthaven.
You knew he was a danger. That's why you had him put in the secure centre.
I knew he had a history of aggressive behaviour, but nothing like this.
A call's gone out to all PAS officers for a city-wide search.
Public opinion about the ACs is still confused.
We just don't want to cause a panic.
I would say an aggressive AC
and a badly wounded woman is every reason to panic.
Which is why we want to bring him in quickly and quietly, minimum force.
Will she be all right? The cleaner?
We don't know. Medical staff are doing everything they can.
Let's just focus on the job.
Be careful out there. Understand?
What do you think?
Not going to win any art awards, that's for sure.
It's a landing memorial. You can see it from here, look.
Incredible job, people, losing an AC. That's quite an achievement.
You picked him up this morning.
Did he say anything to you? Anything at all?
We didn't get a chance to have a good old chitchat, unless he was faking it.
Let's hope not.
Just give me the nod, I'll have my team out scouring the city.
We live and breathe this sort of thing.
We'll have the AC bagged and tagged by the end of the day.
It's not a hunting party. We're to bring him in alive.
He's attacked once. Wouldn't be surprised if he does it again.
You know how it works. The fence and beyond - that's your watch.
Everything inside is PAS.
That worries me even more.
We can deal with it.
Look, I'm not suggesting we run round the streets guns a-blazing.
Although I have a feeling you might quite enjoy that.
At least warn the public.
Causing panic isn't an answer.
So it's softly-softly all the way?
I'm not sanctioning an execution out there.
You were the one who sent them away from the city.
You ordered Mitchell to wipe them out.
I'm also the one who offered to help them, should they choose to accept it.
Which just tells me that you don't understand them any more.
Mitchell spared the ACs because he took pity on them.
They respected Mitchell for who he was.
But you, me, Forthaven... they despise us.
We're the enemy.
For all we know, this is war.
While we appreciate your offer of help, this isn't your jurisdiction.
It's Stella's call.
It's still a PAS operation. We'll do it their way.
I'm Julius Berger, member of the General Council.
I just really wanted to stop by and say personally how sorry I am,
how sorry we all are.
You can be assured that I will not rest
until this perpetrator is brought to justice.
But we do need your help.
You can tell the people what this animal did to you.
Warn them of the dangers so when he's finally caught,
he can never do harm to anyone ever again.
No.
I don't think you fully understand the situation.
This thing that attacked you, it's not the only one.
I know what it is you want me to do...
.. but I know what I saw.
He didn't mean to do it.
He was scared.
Like a child.
Stupid woman.
You don't know anything.
At all.
You know, there's this great old Earth custom
of knocking on the door before coming in.
- You should have locked it, then. - Hmm. Good point.
Maybe them streets aren't safe any more.
- I'm Lily, I'm... - Stella Isen's daughter.
Yeah, I've seen you about.
I'm sure my mother's got a law against noise pollution.
Your ma's all right. A fine woman.
For a PAS scumbag, you know.
- This was sitting outside for you. - What is it?
See you, then.
This is Radio Free Carpathia...
.. and I'm the idiot who's come into some knowledge.
Not for my eyes and definitely not for your ears.
But I've got to ask myself,
if I was you folks out there, would I want to hear about this?
And unfortunately the answer is yes. OK, so...
You know those Advanced Cultivars?
The mythical men they've kept secret from us for such a long time?
It would seem one of them was in Forthaven yesterday.
And while he was here, he attacked and injured some poor woman.
But here's the kicker.
They didn't manage to catch him.
He's on the loose right here, right now.
Look, you know me.
I like to play a few tunes, have a laugh. I don't want to cause any trouble.
So I'll just say this. Watch your backs.
Oh, and if you see him... run.
Run like hell.
How the hell did he get hold of that information?
Well, someone in your department obviously leaked it.
I'll find out who.
- This is not good. - I know.
I've been to the medicentre.
Thankfully it seems that Sarah's going to make a complete recovery.
For that, at least, we can be grateful.
- You blame yourself, don't you? - Of course.
If we don't find Elijah soon, if we're not seen to be doing something,
then we'll have lost Forthaven's trust for good.
And if that happens, we're finished.
Anything?
I just thought maybe the drawing meant something.
Yeah.
I always feel a bit weird looking at this.
Imagine what it must have been like for him.
Patrick Baxter, first man to set foot on Carpathia.
Steps out of this shuttle, hoping to God or whoever
that the ground didn't just disappear beneath his feet.
Fleur?
Fleur!
Ugh!
Help!
Get out of the way!
Help!
Fleur!
Hold on!
Please don't make me go back there.
Promise me.
Please.
I promise.
Wait! I don't think you're going to need that.
I'll take my chances. What happened?
- Him. - I can't go back there.
You don't have a choice. Not after what you've done.
So let's not make this difficult for both of us, yeah?
They'll make the green light go red.
What green light?
The green light was good.
It told me that I was safe and that everything was OK.
But then the red light...
What? In the secure centre? The one you escaped from?
No, not there.
A long time ago. Look, I'm not going back there.
You promised.
And then... Something's not right about this.
I've seen killers, but they all run when the time comes.
To turn around and save someone when they could've escaped...
What do you think happened to him?
I don't know.
That man... The one you were talking to.
Tate.
Now I see him again, I know I'm not safe.
I know I'm not safe at all.
Whatever we're gonna do, we can't do it here.
We need to get inside.
Elijah.
You hurt someone.
Do you understand that?
I know.
But I not there.
You didn't do it?
Yes...
.. but I not there.
You said Tate lied to you.
I wanted to be like the others.
Tate said I would be.
Said I would have to wait...
.. and I could be with my brothers and sisters again.
Every day, every night for so long...
Everything was different after that.
What did they do to him?
I don't know.
One person does.
Tate.
You've got full access to his office.
Whatever happened to him, it'll be in there.
Not sure our president would appreciate me rummaging about.
He doesn't have to know.
No, we should bring him in.
Cass, I know your history with Tate, but we've been lied to before.
And we don't know what they did to him
or what they'd do to him if he was returned.
God, I hate it when you're right.
Elijah...
.. I need you to trust us.
Are you going to take me back?
No, not...
Not yet.
- You promise? - Yes.
We promise.
Don't do anything stupid.
Stay by the door. If he even moves, you get out of here. Understand?
Thank you, Cass.
Cass?
You missed the security meeting.
I was out looking for the AC.
I figured it was more important.
I appreciate your dedication.
Just doing my job.
Look, nobody said what happens when we find the AC.
When we bring him in.
Well, as you know, certain modifications were made to the ACs.
With Elijah, we went further,
and I'm worried that this may be the root of his behavioural problems.
But that's something you can reverse.
On Earth maybe, but with the resources here...
- hopefully he'll rehabilitate... - Hopefully?
We could just set him free,
you know, send him scurrying back to the ACs' camp.
I'd need to be sure that he's not going to come back here
and put our people in danger.
The safety of Forthaven has to come above all,
and that's what I need you for. It means a lot to me.
If there's one thing rock and roll has taught us, my friends,
it's that you can't trust the man.
But at least you can trust old Tipper here to play you some decent tunes
while you wrestle with your paranoia... GUNSHOT.
You could just knock, you know.
I didn't think you'd trust "the man" enough to open it.
Well, I like to think you and me have a... special understanding.
Well, in that case, you won't mind telling me
where you got the information about the AC.
I can't reveal my sources, Stella.
Vinyl!
Can't beat it.
Every scratch, every pop, every jump becomes part of the song.
It becomes something more.
It's a bit of our heritage. You wouldn't.
Telling the truth isn't a crime.
Not yet.
And do you think that's the way people would like to hear it?
Would you believe me if I said...
.. I didn't want to tell you for your own good?
No, I wouldn't.
Only because you asked me, but I'm sorry, all right?
Why are you sorry?
It was Lily. It was your daughter.
We shouldn't be here. We should be the ones hunting down the AC.
I guess someone needs to lay the pipes to keep the water supply going.
Yeah, I agree, someone does.
But this is donkey work. This is beneath us.
Something has to change around here.
Yeah. Mitchell wouldn't have stood for this.
Jack?
What now?
What is it?
Take a look.
Elijah, have you ever hurt anyone before?
The others understand me.
Rudi makes sure they do, makes sure I'm safe.
Makes sure they're safe from me.
All right?
Got it.
They experimented on him.
On the neural pathways that lead to the amygdala.
You're mistaking me for someone who speaks Science.
It's an area of the brain's temporal lobe.
It affects the learning and processing of responses to danger, to fear.
The perfect worker for an unstable planet.
But in day-to-day life, unable to control his reactions.
They could never have known what would happen to him.
- Even so, Cass. - I know, but I don't like lying to Tate.
And it isn't our job to decide these things.
Will he be safe if we bring him in?
I can't promise that, Fleur.
Elijah said Rudi knew how to control him. If I could get him back there...
I'm sure the ACs will be delighted to see me strolling into their camp.
I can contact Rudi. You wait here with Elijah.
We have our orders.
So you'd happily walk him in, have his blood on your hands?
I just don't like the idea of you going out there alone.
You won't stop me.
And you'll be here when I get back.
Do you recognise this? You stole it from me.
I know why you did it.
You wanted to hurt me to see how I'd react, what I'd do.
But this goes beyond me, Lily...
the trouble that this leak could cause.
You have no idea what it was like, being left behind.
Well, then, please will you tell me something about yourself?
The night of my fifth birthday, I had this terrible nightmare.
Dad spent the whole night up with me.
He made me talk it through. He made me understand that...
it was all in my head, that it couldn't hurt me.
And you'll never know what that nightmare was.
It's too late.
I think you're right, Lily. I think it is too late.
I can't do this any more.
I think it's better that you find somewhere else to stay.
For now.
You're right. Maybe it would be best if I found somewhere else.
Is there some reason I wasn't informed
of a private security meeting?
Yes. It was private, and it didn't concern you.
Oh, I like to think everything in Forthaven is my concern.
I could be of use to you if you let me, Richard.
You're part of the Council, Julius.
It doesn't mean you need to see all and hear all.
Nevertheless, I do my part.
Having a small candle-lit vigil for poor injured woman, Sarah,
in the hopes that some element of prayer might aid in her recovery.
Well, I'll put my faith in the skills of our medical staff.
Look, even if my beliefs are misplaced, what do I lose by having faith?
Nothing.
It brings me peace, it gives me hope that when I slide into the darkness
there will be light at the end.
Tell me, President Tate...
.. what do you have to look forward to?
Dinner.
What's it like?
Being you?
You know, an AC?
It's just hard for people here to understand your lot.
How similar we are, or not.
I mean...
You know, you feel like us, right?
- You laugh, cry, fall in love. - Love.
Yeah... You know, it's like when... It's...
Oh, well done, Cass
You know, it's like when a boy meets a girl and there's this... feeling.
You're messing with me, ain't ya?
I think we're not so different.
We both laugh...
cry...
.. love.
Sounds like there's a special someone out there for you.
Another AC back at your camp?
She's very beautiful.
Strong.
Her eyes are like... stars.
Does she feel the same way?
I don't know. I've never spoken to her.
HE LAUGHS
No, sorry, I don't mean...
It's just...
You know, both of us standing up here
worrying about whether that special girl likes us or not.
Easy, big guy, it's just a storm.
I said easy.
Please.
If you're there, say something.
Please.
Oof! Ooh!
You're awake.
Yes, I am. Thank you.
I hurt you.
It's getting worse all the time.
What if you're back home, amongst your own people, though?
Maybe it's best if I'm kept away from everyone.
So you'd come in with me, right now?
I trust you.
Cass!
- I'm OK. - What happened?
Oh, you know, boys' night out, bit of rough and tumble.
You'll be safe now.
Do you know what was done to him?
Yeah, I know.
That's why he shouldn't be here now. The sooner I can take him back...
They're not just gonna let us walk out of here with him.
They switch shifts on the guard posts in an hour.
- If we time it right... - They'll spot you a mile off.
You need someone to delay them, a distraction.
Fleur, Elijah's getting worse. He even says so himself.
All the more reason for us to get him out of here.
Cass.
Yeah.
You really think you can keep him under control?
What if he stumbles back in here again, hurts someone else?
He won't.
Maybe you don't understand him as well as you think.
He's one of my people.
He doesn't need control. He needs space, to be left alone.
I'll make sure everything's set.
You wait for me to return.
I've been out there, Richard. It's not pretty. The people are losing faith in you.
As is their right.
You need your fellow Council members
to put on a public show of support.
I'm willing to do that, to stand up, to be counted,
to say that I have absolute trust in you.
No.
Richard, you're drowning. I'm offering you my hand.
Are you so stubborn that you would turn it down?
I know you, Julius. You wouldn't help a drowning man
unless there was something in it for you.
The way I see it... Sorry, the way the people see it,
your PAS squads have singularly failed
to track down and capture this dangerous creature.
Whether you want my help or not, I don't think you have a choice.
The AC isn't on the loose.
We've had him under lockdown out there since morning.
We're getting set to bring him in.
We have to make sure nothing interferes with the task in hand.
I'm afraid your grandstanding will have to wait for another day.
Do you really think you can keep their support, after all of this?
It does cast a shadow over the whole AC programme,
raises questions about those involved.
And those who gave the go-ahead to the programme at the time.
Wouldn't look too good for you, either.
You did the right thing coming to see me.
It doesn't feel like it.
Then why did you?
Elijah - he's smarter than you think, more self-aware.
He knows he's a danger and he seems to feel he's getting worse,
more out of control.
Cass, I know this is difficult for you
and I don't blame you for looking out for his welfare,
but I promise you no harm will come to him.
We'll find a way to make him better, whatever it takes.
We owe him that much, for what was done.
She's not going to forgive me for this.
Please tell me you're not going to bring him in alone.
Who told you?
Berger.
He has his concerns. So do I.
Take in a PAS squad to form a perimeter, flush out Elijah, the target.
Take him down quickly and safely. Tranq shots.
It's not a bad plan of action, so long as you're sure your men can contain him.
It's not a normal person we're dealing with here.
I can't risk him getting loose in the city again.
He's a danger. He doesn't mean to be, but...
It's your op. Your call.
If you need a second line of defence, well, that's your call as well.
The XPs don't have authority within the fence.
No, we don't. You do.
Look, you've got options if you want them.
I'm sure a pair of losers like us can put aside our differences for that.
'Confirm perimeter one secured. '
'Second perimeter in position. '
'No movement inside. '
'Confirm, tranquillisers only. '.
Don't screw this up, Cass.
Everything fine?
All set.
It wasn't easy, but you got your window of opportunity.
Are you sure?
We can stay and talk, or we can get moving.
You'll be all right, I promise.
Don't worry, I understand.
- Stay away from the window. - What?
Just step back, cover your eyes.
No, Cass! Please, no!
No!
I'm going in!
No!
Where is he?
Cass!
They're not going to hurt him. Tranq shots.
Come on! Come on!
- Agh! - Elijah!
Jack!
No!
Stand down, Jack. That's an order - stand down!
I promised him.
I know.
What happened to Rudi?
He's returned to his camp, his people.
Whether there will be repercussions for this or not, it's too early to say.
Would you blame them... after what we've done?
You could at least be angry with me.
I disobeyed orders, went behind your back.
And I need people like you.
Questioning.
Refusing to accept answers if they're not convinced.
There's no place for me here any more.
And if I thought that were true, I would gladly show you the door.
We do what we have to, Fleur.
To survive.
You were not authorised to open fire.
If it wasn't for me, we'd be dragging home the dead body of a PAS officer.
I was there to support Cass. I did what was necessary.
We're all in the same team here.
Somehow I find that difficult to believe.
I found this.
Buried deep out beyond the fence.
I think when you look at it,
you'll change your mind about how useful the expeditionaries really are.
See, I did bolt the door, but some genius popped the lock off.
What's going on?
I need a place to stay.
Oh, no, no! This is Tipper Central, not a doss house for waifs and strays.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Bloody hell! It's like kicking a kitten in the bollocks.
Go on, then.
House rules.
Don't touch my vinyl, don't use up all the hot water,
and don't hand me over any more bloody official documents.
One shot, I hear. Impressive.
It was necessary.
I'm sure it was.
But, you know, it might be better for us
to play things a little more subtly from now on.
Us?
Friends in high places, Jack.
We both know things need to change around here,
and I very much would like you to be a part of that.
I'll see you soon.
Elijah's body will be returned to the AC camp
so they can bury him in their own way.
A small, useless gesture on our part.
You know, I almost envy them, free out there.
With all we're dealing with, I rarely get to go outside the fence these days.
Not like when we were here first.
Standing out there, eyes wide open, a whole new planet before us.
The only time I was ever comfortable out there, I... was with the boys.
I wanted to tell them about the rock formations,
why they were different from Earth,
but of course all they wanted to do was run around, play.
Richard...
Jack found something.
Out beyond the fence.
How long has that been there?
We're talking tens of thousands of years.
Are you saying humans have been here before?
I don't know.
I don't know, but this...
This changes everything.
I was trying to protect you.
Protect us all.
Elijah told me himself, he was getting worse, he was a danger.
And Tate promised...
He promised he'd help him.
I never thought it would end like that.
- You lied to me. - Yes.
I did.
Your first loyalty is always going to be to Tate.
Even though I understand that...
.. I'm never going to trust you again, Cass.
Never.
Yes, you will.
What makes you so sure?
Because if you're ever stupid enough to ask for my help again,
you know I'll be there to give it.
No matter what.
Fleur...
Don't talk any more, please.
I know you're sorry.
And I'm sorry I couldn't protect Elijah.
And just for a moment,
I want to forget about being so damn sorry all the time.
What can I do for you?
She's at Tipper's.
That's not really your concern.
No, I suppose it's not.
But for better, for worse, she listens to me.
She seems to respect me.
She should be here, with her mother.
I wish I shared your confidence.
Lily needs to learn boundaries.
She'll understand sooner or later.
I'll do my best to make her see
how lucky she is to have someone who cares for her the way you do.
I do understand... more than ever, that here in Forthaven on Carpathia,
the children are the future.
It's not the future I'm worried about.
It's the past.
I miss you so much.
I miss you all so much.
I know you're not real.
I know you're not my children.
Can't be.
It's OK, I...
I don't want you to leave.
If you want, you can go and play.
Just don't leave me yet.
