Primeval New World 01x06 Clean Up On Asile Three Original Air Date December 3, 2012
==sync, correction by dcdah== for www.addic7ed.com
Chicken pot stickers, fried, not boiled.
Spicy green beans, Szechuan tofu...
[Sniffing]
Something fishy.
Broccoli and oyster sauce.
Well done.
It helps that
you only bring stuff I like.
And no tiny corns.
Yeah. Potstickers tend to mean bad news.
Wontons?
Those babies mean good news.
Really? I do that?
So...
Hit me with the worst.
Are we going bankrupt?
We'll muddle through the quarter.
But there is something that I need to tell you,
and it's not about the business. It's about me.
You kind of are the business.
At least the part
that does the businessy stuff.
I got a job offer today.
Soeng is expanding westward,
and they're looking for a local finance director.
You get job offers every week.
You're considering it.
I have a report.
Sitting on my desk.
Explaining to the workplace safety commission.
How two Cross Photonics employees
were shredded in a piece of machinery.
Because I can't tell anyone
how they really died.
I wish I never had to ask you to do that.
We all wish that.
It's not the first lie I've told for you
over the years.
I know.
You always have my back,
and I don't thank you enough.
I thought that once you found these anomalies.
That that would be the end of it.
That we could close that chapter
and move on.
That's not what happened.
This is never going to be over, is it?
Look, I...
I can't just walk away from this.
If you need to,
I understand.
[Novelty cell phone voice]: Anomaly.
Can we finish this later?
Evan, people are dead.
You keep this up
it's only a matter of time until...
Until what?
You know what.
I wouldn't do that to you, come on.
Nope, I'm not an after-hours vigilante.
I have no cool excuse,
except for the fact that my work just blew up again.
I was really looking forward to it.
Thanks, Dave.
I'll call you soon.
'Kay.
Sorry about the timing.
Well, if you don't count the coffee,
which isn't a meal,
it's only the third time I've had to cancel.
Do you have any details?
Just a location.
Coverage is good around here,
we know it's within a hundred meters due South.
So, inside the store.
How's your breaking and entering?
[Motorcycle pulls up]
It just got here.
Thanks for coming.
It's what you pay me for.
"Special projects as needed."
No questions asked or answered.
I never said that.
Guys, please.
Can we just...
Look, I'm here, I'm ready to go.
Let's go find us a dinosaur.
Where's my rifle?
Back at the office.
No deadly force. That's the deal.
They'll have something in there that I can use.
Mac, I get it.
They killed your girlfriend, they also killed my wife.
I'd love to blow them all away.
Evan...
But I'm not going to,
and neither are you.
I've been working on something new.
Self-contained taser bolt.
Projectile, single-point trajectory,
discharges on impact.
So we're just gonna tickle their asses?
No, we're going to send their asses
back to where they came from.
If you can't play by those rules,
you need to leave right now.
Clear?
Crystal.
[Electricity crackling]
It'll take down anything up to three tons.
Works for me.
Good.
[Chuckling]
Okay, so, hi, Ange... Uh, Ms. Finch.
It's Lieutenant Leeds here,
but you can see that. It's a video.
I don't need to tell you who I am.
Anyways, I have some very exciting news
about that which we cannot discuss.
over a non-secured network, um...
Oh, what is that? That's disgusting.
Um, so, look, I would really like to talk to you,
but not at the office.
I'm having some renovations done.
They'll be done soon.
They're really cool.
Um, so how about neutral territory?
Say, Portside Park, 9:00?
And, um, please, don't let yourself be followed.
Not that there's any reason
why anybody would be following you.
I don't know why they would,
but if they do try,
don't let them, at all.
Anyways, I'll talk to you at the secret meeting.
[Sighs heavily]
Easy peasy.
You got big brother covered?
No problem. Now for the alarm.
You guys have interesting skill sets.
Evan likes to know how things work.
So he can usually make them not work.
And Mac likes getting into places
that he shouldn't be.
Clear.
And we're in.
[Bollywood movie plays distantly]
You hear that?
Sounds like the anomaly opened to Mumbai.
Yeah.
Let's go find out.
[Switching off]
[Beep]
Took out all the cameras
and the perimeter sensors.
You fry the hard drive?
Of course I fried the hard drive.
Uh, guys?
Whatever did this
was powerful enough to drag the victim away.
Whatever did this could be coming for us next.
[Dylan sighs]
A lot of places to hide in here.
[Scanner warbles]
Yeah, readings are getting hot.
Anomaly's close.
[Anomaly whooshing]
Whoa.
Pull him! Pull him out!
Something's holding him.
Pull!
The upper body is completely detached.
Jagged demarcation.
That implies some powerful jaws.
The legs are almost untouched
except for lacerations to the lower calf.
They're here to kill us.
Does it really matter how?
I need to take a look at the attack site.
Go with her.
I'll stay here and make sure
nothing comes through it.
[Sighs]
Looks like it's bipedal,
and not very big.
Small is good.
But we've got multiple tracks.
There's more than one.
A lot more?
It looks like it.
Hello, lieutenant.
Right on time. I like that.
Shows professionalism. Respect.
Nothing ever got done by being late.
Oh, your hair's different.
No, it isn't.
It still looks lovely...
Tell me again why we're meeting out here?
Uh, secure communication.
It's harder to eavesdrop in a public place.
And who exactly would be eavesdropping on us?
That's always the question, isn't it?
You never know until it's too late,
and then you're up on charges.
And I think it's refreshing
to get out of the office on occasion.
This is not a date, lieutenant.
No. No, of course not.
Um...
Although, I did... ow...
bring some hors d'oeuvres,
in case you were hungry.
I've got these.
What. No wine?
Well, I, um...
Pulled this from the vault.
It was left behind
when most of the department was made redundant in 1954.
You know, it's one of the advantages
of being somewhat off the radar.
You have access to some unexpected pleasures.
I was saving it for just the right moment.
Your message said you had good news.
Yes. Uh, yeah.
I have been officially returned to full operational allocation,
effective Monday.
And I wanted to toast
to our success.
Your dinosaur problem will soon be my dinosaur problem.
Well, I'm not sure if that's something to celebrate.
Why not?
I thought that's what you wanted.
It was.
Of course, I just, uh...
success doesn't solve all your problems, lieutenant.
It just creates a whole bunch of new ones.
Well, I look forward to the challenge.
Don't I?
You work for the government, for God's sakes.
Oversight by a thousand committees.
Partisan interference.
Audits.
Office politics.
Office...
Romance.
Something's happened.
[Sighs]
Why don't we open that wine?
Uh... okay.
I found this with his things.
You okay?
No.
How sure can we be
that all these things went back into it?
We can't.
We'll need to do a full sweep of the building.
I'm going to need you to stay here
and make sure nothing comes through.
If anything does, it will wish it didn't.
Something's been at these emergency blankets.
What would a dinosaur want with those?
They're shiny.
Just the sort of thing a crow or a magpie would take.
Whatever killed that guy was no magpie.
We need to find out what we're dealing with here.
We might be able to set a trap of some kind.
Look around,
they have everything here.
They probably even have a dinosaur trap aisle.
So, you actually think these things are like birds?
Birds are the closest thing there are to dinosaurs.
There could be common behaviors.
Oh, yeah? I wish I could read humans
the way you read animals.
Something you want to tell me?
No.
Okay. [Sighs]
Ange just told me that she might be leaving.
After all that's happened, that can't be a shock.
Then why am I so shocked, huh?
Probably because she's always been there.
Yeah.
You're freaking out a little, aren't you?
I can't run my business by myself.
Are you worried about losing the business or her?
I've lost businesses before.
[Creature snarls softly]
So, what are you going to do?
Well, I'm not going to stand in her way.
And you told her that?
Sure.
'Cause you're a good guy.
Yeah, and asking her to stay
would be a jerk move.
Unless you mean it.
[Crunching underfoot]
[Distant pattering]
[Whispers] Hey!
[Kibble spilling and pattering]
[Creature roars]
[Evan yelps]
Well, now we know what they like.
[Creature roars]
[Fires, tranq shot thuds]
I think I found one.
It's hiding in the shelves.
Yeah, us too. Did you get a look at it?
No. It's faster than hell...
[Box thuds]
Dammit!
[Trickling pet kibble]
I can't say this is how I expected to spend my night.
Yeah, I get that.
Dinosaur hunting doesn't exactly go that well
With having a life.
[Distant hissing screech]
Sorry you had to cancel your dinner plans.
Comes with the territory.
My little sister's a paramedic.
She's on call all the time, but she has a boyfriend.
[Chuckles]
A fiance, actually.
They make it work.
It's not the schedule.
It's the secret.
You can't share your life with someone
if you can't share your life with them.
Well, that kind of limits our options.
We've got each other...
And everyone else is outside the circle.
[Distant growl]
[Ange]: So, when Evan came to me
and told me what happened,
two of our own people had been killed...
I know.
It's horrible.
Just file the report on the deaths,
and I'll guarantee that nobody asks any questions.
How do you do that?
What?
[Laughs in disbelief]
You just seem so...
I mean, I don't want this to sound insulting,
but you seem so flustered a lot of the time,
and yet you can switch gears
and turn around and cover up
the violent deaths of two people.
Ten. So far.
[Sighing] Oh, my God.
This will never come back to haunt you.
I promise.
But it does haunt me!
How can it not haunt you?
I...
I have made some decisions in my life.
That have had serious consequences.
My aim was noble,
even if the outcome was not what I had hoped,
and that sustains me.
I didn't sign up for this.
Well, one rarely does.
But I do urge you to consider
that things may be on the verge of going right.
You know, once Colonel Hall
approves my ten-point action plan,
I'll be able to put together
an outstanding containment and control team,
and we'll be able to avoid
any of this collateral damage.
They're people, lieutenant.
Dead people.
Yes.
Sorry.
No, I'm sorry.
It's not you I'm mad at.
It's Evan?
No.
No, actually, I think it's me.
[Hissing and croaking]
[Door slams shut, creature shrieks]
You know what it is?
It's really angry, that's what it is.
Yeah, angry but small.
If these things are all this easy to catch,
you may even make your date.
Those teeth are as sharp as razors.
Two rows.
That explains the body.
It would be like getting attacked by piranhas.
[Bellowing mournfully]
[Creatures snarl and shriek in reply]
They don't sound very happy.
That was a distress call.
They went after the guard.
Why aren't they attacking us?
They're small. Pack hunters.
We've got the size advantage right now.
They'll try to separate us before they attack.
Well, that means Mac's at a disadvantage.
Let's get the rest of these suckers rounded up.
And then get back there.
Okay, I'll find another crate.
Mac. What's happening?
[Firing darts]
You seen any more of these guys where you are?
Little wankers nicked my aviators.
What's a dinosaur gonna do with polarized lenses?
I don't think it's the uv protection they're after.
They're acting like birds,
watch your kits.
These things are sneaky.
And it seems they have a taste for humans.
[Creatures hiss and snarl]
[Creature hissing]
I looked wicked hot in those.
They're gonna look ridiculous on you.
[Thump]
You think it's funny?
I'm happy to get a shotgun.
Is that what you want?
I can't believe I'm talking to a dinosaur...
[Pot shatters]
[He fires]
[Sighing in exasperation]
You rat!
All that so your friends could get him back?
You better get the hell out of here!
Because if I find you,
I'm going to wring your little neck, you hear me?
Man, I'm so hungry, that dog food smells good.
David was going to take me to Bao Bei tonight.
Best Chinese food in the city.
Ange and I were having Chinese, too.
Take-out in my office.
You guys do that a lot.
Yeah, it's kind of our thing.
There you go.
What?
You guys have a lot of "things" together.
You have a history.
Yeah.
It's called a friendship.
Kind of seems like there's more to it.
Well, it doesn't matter now.
She got a better offer,
and I'm not going to stand in her way.
It's not about the job, Evan.
It avoided the trap.
They're learning.
[Roaring]
You're kidding me.
It got out.
Or its buddy let it out.
That's pretty amazing, actually.
If they're this smart,
we're going to have to really up our game.
[Shrieking overhead]
Shit! [Boxes clatter]
[Groaning]
Evan!
[Creature shrieking]
[Hissing and snarling]
[Weapons clattering]
Shit, they took our guns.
And my radio's gone, too.
Let's hope they don't figure out
how to work the guns.
Well, they were probably just after the flashlights.
Let's go after them.
I just thought things would be different, you know?
That Evan would be done with chasing anomalies.
Well, with my new funding, things can change.
We could cover your operating expenses
and free Evan up.
To concentrate on the temporal vortices.
He doesn't have to be in the field.
So you're thinking Evan would work for you?
Is that so absurd?
No offense,
but Evan's not really big
on answering to anyone but himself.
Oh, well, I mean, I would endeavor to create
the same illusion of independence
that you've fostered for him
over the years.
You know, you're not as passive-aggressive
As you pretend to be.
There's a little bit of aggressive in there.
Sorry, I don't mean to be critical.
No, you're right.
I do manage Evan.
And you do so brilliantly.
And that used to be enough.
But it just isn't anymore.
What do you mean?
I'm leaving Cross Photonics.
What? No.
It's time. It's past time.
No, but you can't.
I mean, everybody knows how much you've done for Evan.
You're partners.
We were.
When he actually cared about Cross Photonics.
You know, even when he was married to someone else,
we were the real team.
I put everything I had into that.
Sleepless nights, missed vacations,
and all of it to realize his dream.
[Sighs]
He didn't want any of it.
No, what he wants is this... madness.
And now he's out there with Dylan,
probably getting himself killed...
What? Wait,
right now?
I'm going to send in a support team.
Um... no, I'm not going to.
Congratulations, lieutenant.
I hope this turns out to be
everything you wished for.
[Clinks glass]
[Creature shrieking distantly]
[Firing darts]
[Creatures roaring]
Come on, tough guy. Where are you?
We've got to find something.
We can fight them with.
[Creature howls]
Did you hear that?
That one with the lower pitch?
I think that's the Alpha.
Listen to how it calls out first,
and then the others respond.
[Creatures responding]
It's giving orders.
They're three feet tall,
living in a world of armor-covered giants.
They'd need a serious competitive advantage
to survive.
Like intelligence.
Communication.
These things just got a whole lot scarier.
[Alpha creature roars]
If the Alpha's giving the orders,
he's the one we focus on.
If we capture the Alpha and put it back through,
we'll establish this as our territory,
and the others should follow it back.
[Firing]
Stuff this.
[Fires stunner]
[Hangers jostle]
Two go in...
Only one comes out.
Why are they suddenly being so quiet?
[Snarling]
Act casual.
Dylan, where are you?
Over here!
Watch your ankles! They're trying to take us down!
[Crash]
[Creature hissing overhead]
[Scratching and pounding]
[Screeching and banging]
[Multiple creatures banging]
[Leaf blower roars]
[Leaf blower whooshing and droning]
Dylan?
[Turns off leaf blower]
Dylan?
Yeah, it's me!
[Straining]
They don't like the noise.
At least until they read the manual
and figure out it can't actually hurt them.
It's no joke.
They're getting more strategic.
We need to find Mac.
[Mac]: Now I got you...
[Creature snarls]
That's my radio!
Where's... my... glasses, huh?
Take you down to savile row.
And have wingtips made out of your ass!
[Grunting]
[Straining]
[Creature hissing]
Gotcha!
[Helicopter whirs past]
I am really glad you got me out of the office.
It's just nice to have a fresh new perspective.
I'm going to miss our little chats.
I should, uh, call a taxi
and just pick my car up in the morning.
I'll arrange transport.
I'll deliver your car in the morning.
Just let me make a call.
That's very kind of you.
It's my pleasure.
If you're going to be available,
maybe you could be my Ange.
[Laughs]
That's very sweet...
but the Soeng Group has made me a very generous offer.
I'll match it.
A million to start.
And five times that in stock options.
[Chuckles ruefully]
Well, it is hard to compete with the private sector.
[Sighs awkwardly]
I'll make that call.
Sure.
Mac?
Mac!
I need to go in after him.
Evan, wait.
We don't know that's where he went.
He was shooting at something.
What if he followed it?
You're right.
He left a trail.
[Unspooling tape crackles]
[Creature hissing inside box]
I should bash your brains out.
You have got to be kidding me.
[Into radio] Hello!
Hello!
Can anyone hear me?
Mac?
You took your time. I'm locked in!
What have you been doing, fighting dinosaurs?
[Chuckles ruefully]
It'll take more than
a bunch of prehistoric vermin to do us in.
Got you a present.
Alive and kicking.
Thanks.
I'd rather not go ten rounds
with the rest of them.
Have you got a game plan?
Yeah. Capture the Alpha.
The others will follow it back through.
Sounds good to me.
They must be taking all their loot somewhere.
If they have a trove, we could find the Alpha there.
Little wanker tried to Nick my radio.
One got away with mine.
And it's still turned on.
You sure that's all you want?
It's a Canadian thing.
[Evan]: Okay, give it a try.
[In sing-song]: Hello, dinosaurs...
We're coming to get you...
You're going back to where you came from.
We can hear it. Keep talking.
Testing, three, two, one.
Testing, one, two, three.
Testing. One. Two. Three.
This is the dinosaur directional finder.
Testing, three, two, one...
[Creatures hissing]
Testing, three, two, one...
Mac, we're in.
Gotcha.
[Radio crackles off]
[Alpha creature growling]
He didn't like that.
Territorial.
Good.
Get ready.
Come and get it!
Come on!
What are you waiting for?
[Creature snarls]
Hey! No! No taser!
I'm outta tranqs.
You'll hit Evan.
[Evan]: Uh, guys? A little help here?
I can't get a clear shot.
[Creature shrieks, Evan roars with effort]
[Other creatures run past]
[Firing]
They're scared.
We definitely got the Alpha.
You knocked it out cold.
Let's put them back where they belong.
[Kicks crate]
[Creature calls out]
There you go.
That should bring them in.
It's not going to take them long
tTo chew out of those crates.
Kill your lights.
[Creatures approach, hissing]
There!
[Creatures hissing and shrieking]
You think we got them all?
They seem like a loyal colony.
Wherever the Alpha goes, they all go.
Any metaphor purely unintentional.
They could still come back through.
No, this is our territory now, and they know it.
We might want to lock it down just in case, though.
You still on the team?
Job needs doing, I'll keep doing it.
Good. I'll call Leeds.
[Stammering] Sorry, colonel, the encryption is distorting.
Um...
[Colonel Hall, voice distorted]: How's that?
Oh, that is better. Thank you, sir.
I've gotten feedback on your action plan, lieutenant.
Well, I-I'm flexible on the details, sir.
We're going to approve it on a conditional basis.
Subject to standard oversight and review.
You're going to need some administrative help.
Keeping the ship on track.
Do you have anyone in mind?
Uh... no, sir.
I'm open to suggestion.
I'll send you warrant officer Lisa Merriwether.
She'll take care of all your needs.
Well, I-I look forward to meeting her, sir.
[Novelty cell phone ringtone: Old-timey spooky music]
[Stammering] Oh, um, colonel, I have another call coming in.
Can I get back to you?
Don't screw up again, lieutenant.
No, sir...
[Novelty ring plays again]
[Stammers] Oh, uh... Bye, now.
Uh, Lieutenant Leeds...
[Stammers] Absolutely, Evan.
No problem.
What's the address?
Okay.
Well, um, day or night.
I'm always here for you.
[Dylan]: Mac's still hurting.
[Evan]: I know.
It could be a while.
Well, do you blame him?
I let him down.
You're human.
Opinions differ.
You going to call what's his nuts?
David?
I know.
Maybe I'll see if he's free for breakfast.
Well, I'll see you at the office.
Hey, we were lucky.
It doesn't always work out so well.
If there's something you want to do...
do it.
Not everything waits for tomorrow.
So how long were you there?
Leeds showed up at, like, 3:00 A.M.
With a couple of soldiers twice his size.
Said he'd square it with the manager
so they could stay there until the anomaly closed.
What about the night guard?
Yeah, he sorted that, too.
I mean, that's his job, right?
Making dead people go away.
You know, I was meant to meet her parents
this Christmas.
They were gonna come visit.
I've never gotten that far.
The meet-the-parents stage?
Yeah.
What? You've never invited anyone back?
To meet my mom? No.
[Laughing] No.
What about that David guy?
I'm gonna break up with him.
What? I thought.
You hadn't even been on a date with him.
Why wait?
Don't say that.
Well, he's alive.
You've still got a chance.
I'm sorry.
You're right.
But...?
But...
You can't tell him that a dinosaur
almost chomped your head off last night.
Or about the anomalies.
Or what the cretaceous looks like.
But I guess I have you for that.
And Toby.
And Evan.
Do you think he'll ever get over her?
Brooke?
I don't know.
How can you, really?
They're thrilled you're on board.
We're looking forward to seeing you in Seoul next week.
Please tell them that I am thrilled as well.
- I will. - Bye bye.
[Sighs sadly]
Hey.
Uh, so, here's the thing.
I don't actually want you to leave.
I need a change.
I get that.
You're not wearing...
I got wontons.
