Previously on Touch...
I got your files on a hard drive full of information
waiting to be handed over to the police.
Ms. Farington, we've spotted Lucy Robbins' vehicle.
- I'm sending Tanner. - No, that is really not necessary.
I'm still in complete control of the operation.
- How should we proceed? - Get rid of her.
(Gunshot echoes)
You said they found one body.
Jake!
That means Amelia's still out there.
She's alive.
I put my money on Rigby.
I should've put it on you.
The work we're doing at the sleep clinic is extraordinary.
You had one.
We have six.
And a seventh is arriving today.
"The nest of seven."
Do you have any idea what that could mean?
And you scan their brain waves while they're sleeping.
It's yielded an almost 90-digit sequence.
The God Sequence.
- I'm in. - Welcome home, Calvin.
Amelia: He's coming for us, Jake.
He's coming for you.
He's here.
(Grunting)
The killing's over.
No!
Jake, stop! Jake!
I need to see you at the station tomorrow, 12:00 noon.

Got any reservations,
this too risky for you in any way,
you let me know now.
Let's go.
(Sighing)
(Phone ringing)
Trevor...
Thanks for getting back to me.
Guillermo's dead.
(Sighs)
You're serious?
I was there. He's gone. It's over.
The police were called.
I couldn't get Jake and Amelia out of there quick enough.
The detective who's investigating the murders at BreakWire,
Detective Lange--
he was in charge.
At first, I couldn't believe my bad luck.
And then I started thinking, no,
this is what's supposed to happen.
I've decided to tell him everything
about Aster Corps, Amelia, Lucy,
why Jake and I had to leave New York,
go on the run, everything.
I think this might be the police officer I've been looking for.
Trevor, I got to go. I'll call you tomorrow.
Hey, buddy.
You can't sleep?
Come on, I'll read you a book.
Jake?
(Sighs)
Amelia?
My mom stood here.
Yes, she did.
She said my name.
She cried.
On this wall,
your mother pinned up every piece of evidence
she uncovered trying to find you.
She never gave up.
Never.
(Voice breaking): I know.
(Panting)
I never believed what I was told.
Sweetheart.
(Door clicks open, squeaks)
Shh.
(Whispering): Don't say a word.
Both of you stay in this room. I'll be right back.

to go out the back now, quickly.
Let's go.

Follow me.
Come on.
Go, go, go.
(Footfalls approaching)
Nicole,
we've got a little bit of a problem.
Uh-huh.
There's, um,
been a little incident with Dr. McCormick.
He was spotted Downtown by an old Marine buddy.
Was there contact?
Yes, there was.
Our-Our security team managed to get him out of there
and back to the sleep center safely, but,
uh, his friend, uh, got a little roughed up.
Okay.
Then be more careful, we have no problem.
No, actually, we do.
This buddy, this Marine--
Shane Stevens-- has now filed a missing persons report.
(Scoffs)
I see.
And he's got a web site, and he's posting
flyers up all over town.
And I'm telling you, this guy is not going away.
The patient furloughs have to stop.
Well, we can't have them feel
as if they're prisoners.
We go into overdrive,
work round the clock.
We finish the sequence and be done with it.
I don't know if that's possible.
McCormick has regressed since the incident.
He has not slept.
- So up his dosage. - That's not that simple.
Side effects emerge.
Th-The guy's developed tremors.
He's showing signs of paranoia.
Is he dying?
Well, not...
No... of course he's not dying.
Well, then, the side effects are irrelevant.
Just go back to work and finish the sequence
and up his dosage.
And double it if you have to.
Uh, Liz? Hi. It's Dr. Linus.
I need you to, uh,
double the sleep medication for McCormick.
Yes. I'm sure.
(Knocking)
Martin: Avram? Avram?
Martin Bohm, is that you?
Kids, get inside. Grab a seat.
Avram, lock the door.
We got to turn out all the lights.
Two men with guns broke into the house.
- Avram: Aster Corps. - Martin: Yeah.
- Did they see where you went? - I'm not sure.
We knew this might happen.
Avram, does anybody else know about this address?
You are safe here.
These two men were professionals. They came to kill me and take the children.
I need to check the back.
Jake: I am one of 36 people responsible for maintaining balance in the world.
There are dangerous people trying to prevent that from happening.
You children are okay, yes?
I'm fine.
So is Jake.
Very well.
We stay quiet and we wait.
Jake: They are getting close...
but so am I.

Martin: Amelia, grab your jacket. It's on the couch by Jake.
Avram, is that my car out front?
Yes. My cousin and his friends
went to the duplex to retrieve your car and belongings.
Tell them thank you, but we can't stay here.
I'm going to talk to a detective. His name is Lange. I trust him.
I'm gonna tell him everything.
Hey, buddy.
"3021."
Perhaps we should figure out what this number means.
I'll keep an eye out for it.
But right now, I've got to go.
Look, uh, please just watch Jake.
Make sure he doesn't leave the house until I get back.
- Of course. - I should only be a few hours.
Be safe, Martin Bohm.
Thank you.
Amelia, are you ready?
Yes.
Okay, let's go.
Hey, buddy.
We'll be back in a little while, okay?
Nurse: You told me to up McCormick's dosage
and now he's unresponsive.
Linus: What do you mean he's unresponsive?
- We can't lose him. - I administered 20 milligrams
methylprednisolone; No effect.
500 milligrams of adrenaline, now.
Right away, doctor.
Linus: Let's go, let's go, let's go.
(Coughing)
Linus: Well, well, well,
and there you are.
(Sighs)
My throat's dr-- dry.
That's very good.
Liz will get you some fluids. Right away, Liz.
Get your electrolytes up.
But you slept.
And that is progress.
Lift your head for me.
There you go.
Good job, Dr. McCormick.
You should feel very proud of yourself.
He's all yours.
(Sighs)
I made you some food.
It's important to keep up your strength.
You should eat.
Jake...
where did you...?
You took this from Guillermo...
The man who tried to kill you.
Jacob, my boy,
this amulet...
is a very important object.
This symbol, the Tree of Life,
represents how the universe came into being.
The sacred and secret story of this amulet
is that whosoever possesses it shall become
the protector,
the guardian of the Lamed Vav Zaddikim,
the 36 righteous ones.
Guillermo had this amulet.
Yet, in his hands,
this became an instrument of death.
You took this amulet from him. Why? Why would you do this?
"3021." 3021.
That's-that's the number that you gave to your father.
3 + 2 + 1-- six.
Six--
the number of love and healing.
The six levels of healing.
The sixth level is the working of miracles.
Mir...
Miracle.
Miracles, healing.
Jake, are we looking for a doctor?
A doctor. Adding your numbers of 3021. Miracle.
"Missing person file number 3021.
"Commander Robert McCormick.
"The 'Miracle Surgeon.'
"saved the lives of five Marines in Afghanistan."
Oh, my. "Missing. Last seen in Los Angeles."
A name-- Private first class Shane Stevens-- is listed
along with a phone number to call if anyone has any information.
Jake,
your father made it very clear
we were to not leave this apartment.
This man, Shane,
he has been looking for the doctor for weeks.
I-I believe that Dr. McCormick is one of the 36
and that he is in danger.
Just like you, Jake.
I believe that we are to find and protect this man.
Perhaps by helping the doctor, we are also
helping you.
Yes, your father would understand this, yes?
Very good, Jake Bohm. We will do this.
We will meet this Shane.
We will commit ourselves to finding Dr. McCormick,
a member of the 36, and we will give him safe harbor.
- Please have a seat here. - Thank you.
Are you nervous?
A little.
Me, too.
Thank you for coming down.
Just wait for me here, sweetheart. I'll call you in a minute.
Have a seat right there, please, Mr. Bishop.
That's not my name.
Bishop.
My name is Martin Bohm. I'm wanted in the State of New York
on one count of kidnapping.
- And you've come here to turn yourself in? - No.
I came here to clear my name.
Last night two men broke into my home.
Their intention was to kill me and kidnap my son.
- Who were these men? - They work for Aster Corps.
Aster Corps the company?
Yes.
I have an eyewitness who will corroborate everything I'm about to tell you.
Her name is Amelia Robbins, daughter of Lucy Robbins,
who was murdered four days ago.
And you're saying these two men are responsible for her murder?
Well, I'm not sure it's the same two men,
but I'm absolutely certain Aster Corps had her killed.
Her body was found 15 miles west of Newberry Springs
in the middle of the Mojave Desert.
I'm sorry. I'm confused.
Why would they do that?
For years Aster Corps has had a secret research division
run by Calvin Norburg.
They're set up to study advanced brain activity.
They wanted Amelia as one of their subjects.
So, 3½ years ago, they kidnapped her and faked her death.
They altered her autopsy report and her death certificate.
They even gave her a new name: Adeline Danvers.
That's when they transferred her from New York to Los Angeles
and began conducting experiments on her.
On this flash drive
I have evidence that will back up all of my accusations.
Aster Corps is a $30 billion corporation.
You realize that, right?
Yes. Look,
I understand that everything that I'm telling you sounds crazy,
but I swear to you...
Every word of it's true.
And what proof do you have again?
The evidence on the flash drive--
Amelia's testimony, her DNA.
Also, you should question Tony Rigby.
He headed up the division for Aster Corps.
I'll talk to the girl first.
Thank you.
(Sighs)
Amelia...
right?
Come on in.
- Joe. - Yeah?
Put out an APB on Tony Rigby.
- Bring him in right away. - You got it.
All right.
Excuse me. Excuse me. Excuse me.
Yeah, ticket to New York, one way.
$417.62.
Doing a little sightseeing?
Yeah, this is Elite Bus Lines.
I have a Homeland Security alert.
This restaurant is owned by a friend of mine.
We will be safe here, my boy.
Are you Avram?
I am.
I'm Shane.
Thank you so much for your call.
I've been searching for Dr. McCormick for weeks.
I could use your help.
We are glad to help.
When I was in Afghanistan,
Dr. McCormick, he was a battlefield surgeon.
Five Marines were critically wounded
by a roadside bomb. I was one of them.
Dr. Mac, he, uh,
he kept us all alive.
Later, when I went to thank him for saving my life,
he said it was nothing.
"It was as if my hands were, were guided by God."
I'm certain they were.
Then you know the rest of the story.
After his discharge,
he came, he came home, he couldn't sleep.
He was agitated.
He was no longer himself.
And then, three months ago, he just vanished.
I think his life is in danger.
How do you know this?
Because I was Downtown. I saw him.
I called his name.
He turned, he saw me, I know he did.
What happened?
This guy came and grabbed me, another guy joined him.
Punched me, kicked me, told me never to return.
I passed out. Before I did, I saw them take
Dr. McCormick and put him in a van and drive away.
This is terrible, my friend.
(Bangs table)
I'm not gonna give up.
Tell me, how do you know Dr. Mac again?
In truth...
we do not.
But, please,
we were sent here to help you find him.
Yeah. (Chuckles)
Yeah, I'm sure you were.
It's nice talking to you.
No, please, wait.
Come, Jake.
- Shane! - Please, stop!
May I explain?
Why are you doing this?
Dr. McCormick's in danger. I need to find him before it's too late.
And I don't need anybody getting in my way.
Shane, watch out!
Look both ways much?
Avram: Are you hurt?
When I was eight years old,
my mom and dad took me to a board-and-care facility
in New York
where they had me do a lot of tests.
Who exactly?
The man's name was Dr. Teller,
but he's dead now.
After a while,
they told me that my mom and dad didn't want me anymore
and that I had to leave.
That's when they gave me my new name--
Adeline Danvers--
and flew me to Los Angeles
where they started to do more tests on my brain.
So how did you escape?
It's all right, sweetheart.
You can tell the detective everything.
They murdered the woman that was taking care of me--
Frances.
I watched her die.
Then they drove me to a place in the desert where they continued
to do experiments on me.
That's when Martin came and got me.
He took me to my mother.
My mom and I were on our way home
when these men ran us off the road.
And then they killed my mother.
I miss her.
Can I have some water?
I'll get it.
Here you go, sweetheart.
My son Jake
has a lot of the abilities that Amelia does,
but he doesn't speak.
He uses numbers to communicate.
He gave me this
before I came here today.
I'm sure you don't believe me, but
I promise you, at, at some point today, that number will matter.
Okay.
Amelia, would you mind repeating all of this on a recorder?
I guess so.
Okay
how about we start with you telling me
about this compound in the desert?
Tony Rigby.
Freeze!
- Hands behind your back. - Okay, okay, okay, all right.
Okay.
I'm gonna have the evidence on this flash drive analyzed,
but I'm gonna have to ask you not to leave town.
And what about the outstanding warrant for my arrest in New York?
I'll pretend you never told me that.
And what now?
Until this case is resolved,
you go and be with your son.
(Door opens)
Let's go.
(Sighs)
Thank you.
I think it went so well.
You were amazing.
When you stood there, you looked at him, you told him the truth, it was...
it was great.
Avram, it's us.
Avram.
Stay right here.
Avram?
Jake?
Avram?
They're gone.
- Maybe they went for a walk. - No.
I told Avram not to take Jake out of the house until I got back--
Come on.
We shall return home, Jake.
This will give us time to decide
what our next course of action will be.
What is this?
"If found, return to Randy Kitson."
There's an address-- A marketplace on 3rd.
Returning this may possibly lead us to the doctor, yes?
Then that is precisely what we will do, Jake Bohm.
His name is Dr. Robert McCormick.
This is the test subject you told me about?
Battlefield surgeon, brilliant.
His scores are off the chart.
So far what we've seen is beyond our wildest dreams.
Interesting.
And how's he coping with the process?
Uh, there are issues.
Minor ones.
Dr. Linus is still adjusting for the side effects.
- The side effects? - Well, reactions.
You know, tremors, small seizures, memory loss.
But he's being closely monitored.
As they all are.
Detective Lange.
This is Tony Rigby.
(Whoops)
That was fast.
Picked him up getting on a bus Downtown.
Once we put out the APB, it came up on the computers.
This is insane.
Why the hell am I here? I've done nothing.
Mr. Rigby, I want to ask you a couple of questions
about the murder of Frances Norburg.
I'd heard she'd been killed-- It's a tragedy.
I don't know anything else about it.
Serious accusations have been made
against you and your company Aster Corps.
Former company.
Former-- You have any questions, ask them.
Oh, I plan to-- Trust me.
Anyone in particular I should see there?
Yeah, Nicole Farington, the CEO.
Farington.
One "r"?
Yeah,
I've got nothing else to add.
Can I leave now, please?
Actually I have grounds to hold you over for further questioning.
- I want my lawyer. - (Laughs)
I bet you do.
Let's put him in interrogation room 1 for now.
Yes, sir.
Come on, let's go.
Sweetheart, I want you to stay here in the car.
Okay.
Avram?
Jake!
Avram!
(Whispers indistinctly)
Avram!
Jake!
They're gone.
How do you know that, sweetheart?
I see things.
What do you mean you see things-- What things?
I see visions.
People.
Sometimes I see them before they happen.
How often?
I see things when I see them.
I don't when I don't.
Amelia?
I see Jake.
Detective Lange, LAPD Homicide.
Is there someplace we can speak privately?
And what could we possibly have to speak about?
Amelia Robbins.
Detective,
we are in the middle of our corporate year end.
I can't express to you how busy we are.
Amelia Robbins is a 14-year-old girl who was kidnapped
from a boarding care facility
called Stanford House in New York city.
She was taken to Los Angeles against her will
and given a new identity.
Exactly what does this have to do with us?
The boarding care facility that she was in
is a division of Aster Corps.
Uh, actually that boarding care facility's
part of a health care division that's been sold off
to an investment group in Singapore.
Clearly not our responsibility.
The kidnapped girl was given a false name--
Adeline Danvers.
And we found a plane ticket issued to a Miss Danvers
on a flight from New York to L.A., paid for by Aster Corps.
Would you kindly look into our human resources database?
Adeline Danvers is junior counsel in our labor
and contracts division-- She's on the 28th floor.
I can have her come up to meet you if you'd like.
Excuse me.
- What can I do for you? - Um, yes,
we are looking for Randy Kitson.
That's me.
Yes, my young friend Jake found this.
Uh, we believe it belongs to you.
My glasses.
You...
were there...
when I crashed my bike.
- Yes. - (Laughs)
Thank you, thank you so much.
You are most welcome.
Can I... can I do something for you?
Uh, free smoothie?
No thank you.
Come along, Jake.
Thanks, guys.
I don't understand, Jake Bohm--
What is the significance of this journey?
Woman: Not good news, D.L.
What am I looking at?
A story falling apart.
I'll call you back.
Took a drive out to Newberry Springs, brought my camera.
Desert compound?
It's a distribution warehouse.
Yeah, but what about the prison--
- The holding cells and the guards? - None of the above.
Place has a staff of 25.
They ship weatherproof computer cases to China.
Site manager says they've been fully operational going on five years.
I don't get it-- Why would that little girl lie?
No idea, but none of what she said stands up.
No razor-wire fence,
no guards with guns, no bad guys, no conspiracy--
just computer cases.
There's more.
I found this.
Partially hidden in the underbrush,
like someone discarded it there.
Same caliber as the one that killed Lucy Robbins.
You ran the prints?
Running as we speak.
Amelia, what do you see now?
I see people.
A lot of people around Jake.
People around Jake.
Left, go left.
Oh, damn it.
I must've been speeding-- Don't worry,
I'll just explain to them that we're looking for Jake.
(Sirens chirping)
- Officer, I'm sorry if it looked like I was speeding. - Get on the ground!
- Get on the ground! - My son is missing.
Mr. Bohm, get on the ground!
How do you know my name? Okay, I'm getting on the ground.
What am I being charged with?
You're under the arrest for the murder of Lucy Robbins.
What?
You need to call Detective Lange, please.
Just call Detective Lange!
(Cell phone dings)
_
Interesting text.
What is it?
It hasn't been reported yet, but
Martin Bohm was arrested for the murder of Lucy Robbins.
How do you know that?
Well, I have friends in influential places.
You think he actually did it?
Calvin,
that's decidedly beside the point, now, isn't it?
Good luck.
(Breathing heavily): Detective Lange.
Please, my son is out there.
I need to find him.
I didn't do anything. I swear to you.
The evidence is telling me something else.
What evidence?
We found the gun.
- What gun? - The one you used to kill Lucy Robbins.
You shot her, left her in the car and tossed the weapon.
- Your prints were all over it. - You kidding me?
- Anyone could have planted that. - How would they do that?
I don't know!
(Sighs)
The D.A. Considers you a flight risk.
He's going for the maximum bail.
Amelia. Wait, wait...
Amelia. Cross-reference Amelia's DNA
with her mother's so you can prove who she is.
You'll know that Aster Corps faked her death and that I'm telling the truth.
Detective, I need to find my son.
I need to find my son now!
(door slams shut)
We have been here long enough, my friend.
We should go home.
Doctor.
Dr. McCormick.
- Do I know you? - No, you do not.
My name is Avram.
This is my friend Jake.
We believe that your life may be in danger.
(Sighs)
I don't-I don't know what you're talking about.
If-if you'll just listen, I believe that we were sent here,
uh, to find you, to help you.
I-I don't want your help.
And I don't want to be found.
We-we met with Shane.
The young Marine whose life you saved.
You know Shane?
Yes, we met. He explained everything.
How you saved his life.
How your trouble began. How you stopped sleeping.
Doctor,
what...
- what are they doing to you? - Something's happened to me.
My mind has begun working too fast.
It made sleep impossible.
I went weeks without a single night.
I felt like I was dying.
But at the sleep center,
they're helping me.
Last night I slept.
- I actually slept. - Doctor,
I believe that you are one of 36 extraordinary individuals.
Jake is one of them as well.
I can explain.
If you come with us, I can protect you.
I won't listen to this.
I want you to leave me alone.
Doctor, please.
What's happening?
Bohm, you made bail.
Hey, Martin.
As far as anyone knows, you have a rich aunt somewhere, okay?
You did this?
You paid my bail? Why?
Judge set the bail at the max: $2 million.
If I didn't do this for you,
you would have been looking at a year before you even got a trial.
They said they had a gun with my prints on it.
Any idea how that happened?
I had nothing to do with it.
Then who?
Does it really matter?
We both know you didn't kill Amelia's mother.
How can I trust you?
Look, we both want to take down Aster Corps.
These people had my mother killed.
Think I'm going to let them get away with that?
Besides, you don't have much of a choice, do you?
What now?
I got you out,
the rest is up to you.
Here's your car.
It's outside in Lot B.
I'll be in touch.
Jake?
Amelia?
Ja...
Oh, sweetheart.
I am so sorry.
I promise you, we're going to get everything straightened out.
Earlier when you were having your vision, you could see Jake.
Can you still see him?
- Yes. - Where is he?
We should get in the car, I'll show you.
Okay, let's go.
- Are we getting any closer? - Yeah, we're almost there.
Right, go right.
Doctor, i-if I can just have another moment of your time...
Please, Dr. McCormick.
That was them.
Jake.
Martin.
Jake, get in the car now.
Get in the car now.
I don't understand.
I told you not to take Jake out of the house. You did it anyway.
- It-it's not what you think. - Two men came into my house last night
and tried to kill me and take my son.
Don't you realize how dangerous this is?
Jake's number led us here. This man may be one of the 36.
I don't care about the 36.
- I'm trying to protect my son. - Martin, listen.
No, Avram, it's you who should have listened.
Now, are you getting in or not?
Dr. McCormick may be one of the 36.
- I-I must find him. - Suit yourself.
Martin.
(Tires screeching)
Martin Bohm!
What's happening?
Please, please.
Nicole: Calvin, I know what you did.
I really don't know what you're talking about.
Amelia Robbins.
What about her?
You've been experimenting on her in a secret location.
(Sighs)
I was doing it for my brother.
William.
You know about William?
Of course I do.
I know everything that happened.
Well, then you understand that...
I'm responsible for him being there.
And, uh,
I just, uh...
I have to save him.
That's why I want your focus here.
We have seven of them, Calvin.
Seven.
All as transcendent as the girl.
Now, you hold the key to everything.
Your mind can lead
Aster Corps out of the darkness
and into the promised land.
So, well, what do you want from me?
The same thing you want from them:
The numeric sequence that their brain power can provide.
Besides the remapping of your brother's brain,
I'm assuming you're aware of its predictive capabilities.
Yes.
Then you know what it would mean to a corporation
like ours to be in possession of such a sequence.
Well,
with seven of them, you ought to be able to crack it within a matter of days.
That's why I want your passion, your inspiration.
I want you to work longer
and harder and better than you ever have before.
Then your brother can get his life back.
(Sighs)
All right, peanut butter only.
PB and J in quarters.
Jake.
I know Avram's your friend.
But I'm your father.
And I'm responsible to make sure that you are safe.
And I gave Avram specific instructions
not to let you out of the house until I got back.
So, when...
You're right.
He's my friend, too.
(Sighs)
(Over voice mail): This is Avram, please leave a message.
Avram, it's Martin.
We're back at your house.
Look. (Sighs)
I-I was scared, okay?
When I got home and-and you and Jake weren't here, I...
I thought something had happened.
Maybe that you had been taken.
Look, I'm sorry for yelling.
Please just...
come back so we can talk.
Jake: My father has sacrificed everything to keep me safe
and to help me find the other special people like me
before it's too late.
I may be running out of time.
(Breathing heavily): Hello?
