Mutant X s01e19 Episode Script

Nothing to Fear

Yeah.
Henry? We gotta go.
Brennan.
Keep going.
What are they doing? I don't know.
Why are they turning back? I'll find out.
Catch up with you later.
Go.
How long has the gsa been on to you.
Four, maybe five weeks.
Why'd you wait so long to contact us? Thought i could handle them, but they're very persistent.
Yeah, well, usually, but they fell back pretty fast today.
Maybe they're afraid of ferals.
Where we headed? Well, first to a safehouse, then an escort's going to take you into the underground.
Is that where brennan's meeting us? I don't remember brennan telling you his name.
Agh oh, ow.
Agh.
Ugh.
Oh.
You okay? Yeah.
What happened? where'd he go? I don't know, but we'll find him.
Come on.
I made a mistake.
Should have figured henry was with the gsa the way they fell back like that.
Alright, lay still.
Let me finish the diagnostics.
And i should have gotten out of there faster.
You said henry pressed his hand against your head? Yeah.
He's a psionic.
He was reading me.
The way you used to.
So what did it feel like? Like a violation.
It was so weird.
I could feel the heat from his hand, and it was like he was with me inside my head.
Uh huh.
Do you remember thinking or feeling anything specific when he was trying to read you? No.
I was numb.
I don't remember anything.
That eye scan.
Well, there's no obvious physiological damage.
Told you so.
Yeah.
But i want you to take it easy.
Well, i'm a little tired.
I'm going to take a nap.
So what do you think? I think we need a full profile on this henry.
And emma, keep a close eye on her.
Feral's in my control.
Now i'll be able to reel them all in, one by one.
I'm concerned, henry, that you're more interested in torturing them and less interested in giving me the information i need.
You'll get what you want.
Have you ever considered renting an apartment? I like it here.
Well, i suppose you've made it your own - so to speak.
Instruct miss fox to give us the location of sanctuary and any pertinent information about the new mutant underground.
Ahem.
And keep in touch.
Hey, how's shalimar? Sound asleep.
What have you got? File's incomplete.
We know he's a psionic.
No current address.
Any relatives? Parents both dead.
His dad worked for fedrail, they lived in the city their whole lives, blah, blah blah? He's married.
Brianna doolan voight.
She works for the gsa.
Yeah.
She's on the payroll for a year and a half.
She died in action nine months ago.
So she dies and henry just takes over for her? Well, stranger things have happened.
But, adam's got a dna sample of henry off of shalimar, so, one way or another, we'll get him.
What are you doing, shal? Go back to bed, emma.
You're neutralising the alarms.
Just running a test.
On an open channel that anybody could pick up.
This is none of your business, emma.
What's that on your head? Shalimar, stop it! You're kidding, right? How the hell d'you get in here? Shal'.
You do this? Did henry make you do this, huh? What is henry controlling? I thought you were stronger than agh.
Stop him.
Lucky for you they didn't get more.
They'll never forgive you.
Nothing will change what you've done.
That's not true.
I'll kill them if you don't let them all go.
You're not the one controlling the situation.
Henry is.
Agh.
nobody controls me.
What do you think we've been doing? You don't have a chance.
Get her.
stop struggling.
It's over now.
For all of you.
shai shal, you okay? Adam, come here.
See that mark right there? That's where henry connected.
Let's get her into the lab.
What happened? She's in a coma.
Henry's doing this to her.
But how? He must have got in control of her through her subconscious when she fell asleep.
So what's happening in her mind is actually affecting her body? Uh huh, he made her believe that he was choking her.
Let me see if i can connect to her.
Oh, no, no.
Because we don't know what he's capable of.
He might be able to gain control of you this way.
No, right now, she's on her own.
You're very resourceful, miss fox.
But there's nothing you can do now that will change the facts.
One, you led us to sanctuary.
Henry, of course, was the one guiding your hand, but it was still your hand.
Two, i have all of your mutant x teammates in my custody.
Now, here's the deal i'm willing to offer.
I'm not interested in any deals.
Have you completely lost touch with your feral need to protect the pack? You don't know anything about me.
Psionic teammate doesn't seem to have much left in her.
What are you talking about? Shalimar.
Agh.
She lacks your inner strength.
Make them stop.
Tell me about the new mutant underground and i'll make sure that they stop.
Might even have a wager on how long miss delauro will last.
Care to place your bet? How's it going in your little dreamscape? Would you like to see for yourself? Don't ever do that to me again.
You asked to see it.
You do a very good impression of me.
The look, the behaviour of the choice of language.
You're just more obvious and predictable than you'd like to think.
I want the location of sanctuary and the data on the underground.
And that's what you'll get.
You seem to be more interested in watching her suffer.
I'm doing whatever i need to do to get anything out of her.
Well, don't kill her in the process.
I've a stasis pod with her name on it.
Who is this? You should know who she is.
She used to work at the gsa.
I don't remember her at all.
Tell me when miss fox breaks.
And let me know when you're ready for the others.
all ferals have a primal fear of fire.
Isn't that right, miss fox? Why are you doing this to me? Because of what you did to me.
What? What did i do? Tell me what i need to know, miss fox.
Save your friends.
Well, have it your way.
It's a burn.
When he connected to her, you must have read her worst fear.
He's torturing her.
Probably for information about us.
Well, we can't just let him do this to her.
We've got to do something, adam.
No.
We gotta rely on her to tough it out.
You're just prolonging your agony.
Emma? It's just a nightmare, shalimar.
It's not real, unless you believe it is.
You've got to fight it.
Don't let him win.
Emma.
Emma, don't.
He's got her trapped somewhere.
It looks like genomex, but it's not.
It's it's a kind of dreamscape.
She's so terrified, adam.
But i think she heard me.
Well, she must have.
Her pulse is dropping.
But, emma, that was very dangerous? Right? You're both psionics.
He could've pulled you in through her mind.
But he didn't.
And now, maybe she can fight back.
Even if you get help from the other side, i'll never let you out of this dreamscape.
There's a couple of non-human organic and chemical substances there.
Oil.
Diesel fuel.
That sos that henry sent us - where did it come from? Pay phone on dubay street.
Why? Where the hell is that? Nothing there but a couple of scrap metal shops and a trainyard, why? Wait, wait, wait.
Trains run on diesel fuel.
Yeah.
So does every truck in the city.
Yeah, but didn't you say that henry's father worked for fedrail.
So the trainyard on dubay, is that one of theirs? Huh.
Fedrail.
Come on, let's check it out.
No wonder we couldn't get an address on this guy - he lives here.
Huh.
Never would've figured him for a guy that likes vivaldi.
So good friend henry had a real life once.
Yeah.
Actually looks like he used to be happy.
She looks pretty.
You know, i'm going to take this stuff back to adam and see if he can get anything off it.
His wife was killed in action, right? Yeah, apparently.
I wonder who she was fighting? Well, it wasn't us.
I'd remember.
He thinks it was us.
What if he's blaming us for what happened to her? Then he's looking for revenge.
Agh.
- You okay? - Yeah.
Brennan.
Agh agh, can you see the mark? Yeah.
Yeah, but it's already starting to fade.
You better stay awake.
Yeah, i know.
So henry can read your fears, huh? Yeah, that's what emma said.
Well, he's going to have plenty to choose from.
Come on, jesse, you aren't afraid of anything.
Huh.
Not afraid of anything? Being buried alive tops the list.
Look, i can't be buried alive, okay? You okay? Yeah.
This'll make you feel better.
You all right? Yeah, it's better.
The minute you stop moving, you're going to want to sleep.
I can't stay awake any more.
Adam.
Jesse.
Oh, isn't there anything else you can give me? Jesse, not without damaging your system.
Whatever henry tries to make you believe, it's not real.
It's a dreamscape, all right? It's happening in your mind.
It's not real unless i believe it.
Yeah, that's right.
It's only in your mind.
Okay.
It's only in your mind.
i know this is not real.
This is a this is a this is not real.
Nice try, mr.
Kilmartin.
I'm sorry, but what is happening to you now is very real.
Oh.
Oh.
No, no, no, no.
Hey, no.
Not no.
No, no, no, no, no.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
Are you asking to negotiate your freedom for certain information, mr.
Kilmartin? What what sort of information? Location of sanctuary, the database of the new mutant underground.
I didn't think so.
Your feral friend wasn't much help either.
Not that that matters anymore.
Where is she? Where is she? Tell me where she is.
Tell me.
Tell meeeeee.
Oh, no agghhhh.
Aggghhh.
Agh, don't.
Agh, agh he's not getting enough air.
Give him some oxygen.
Come on, jesse, breathe.
I want you to resist it, okay? It's happening in your mind.
Breathe.
It's a dreamscape.
Jesse, breathe.
It's not real.
It's not real.
Come on, breathe.
I'm going to give you ten more cc's of the phenoproxin.
No.
It didn't help jesse.
All right, then.
You have to tell me your fears.
I don't let myself think like that.
Come on, brennan, they're buried in there somewhere.
Henry's going to find them.
I was afraid of my own powers when i was a kid.
What? Of using your powers? Afraid of them being used against me.
So how does it feel to be a victim? I know this is a dream and you're controlling it - henry.
How'd you guess? You're blaming us for something that we didn't do.
If it wasn't for you, my wife would still be alive! What did they tell you, huh? You're all part of it.
The gsa falsified the reports.
Argh.
this isn't real.
This isn't real.
Oh, well, then why did you move when the electricity came towards you.
I know about your wife.
I'm not interested in what you have to say.
It's not going to bring her back.
Agghhhh.
and it's not going to change anything.
This isn't real.
This isn't real.
This isn't real! How long are you going to hold on to the belief that what's happening in you right now isn't real? Any idea? Is he fighting it? Yeah.
He's fibrillating from the shocks.
I just got a hit off her photo.
Well, she's dead.
How's that possible? I don't know.
I mean, maybe henry's trying to trick you.
It wasn't from him.
It's from her.
Henry's wife, brianna, was studying to be a concert violinist.
She performed two amateur concerts and played the same vivaldi piece in both.
All right.
So what are you getting at? Henry loved his wife so much that when she died, he kind of broke.
Maybe she's the key to reaching him.
Well, look, their life signs are very erratic.
We need to find a way to get in there and distract henry.
You've got to let me see if i can connect to them.
No, no, no, no.
Because you and henry are both psionics.
He can manipulate you.
But what if i went in? You think you can get into the place where they are? Yeah, well, i could use the edd to match my baseline to theirs.
Ah, but then what? How are you going to prove to henry that we had nothing to do with the death of his wife? I don't know.
But first, i have an idea about how to stabilize their vital signs.
You promised me something you haven't delivered.
Their minds will become exhausted and they'll no longer have the energy to fight me.
You must be you must be patient patient.
And what? Henry.
Henry.
That's enough.
Good.
All right.
You stabilized them.
This thing is too risky to maintain connection with this guy any longer.
All right, so i'm going to get the stats for the edd.
You let me know if there's any change.
Okay.
You think vivaldi makes me nicer? You're wrong.
Just reminds me how much i want to make you suffer for what you did to brianna.
Henry.
You're a psionic.
I can pull you in here with me.
How about it? You want to come play with your friends? Adam! He can't help you.
You're already mine.
Adam, you gotta keep searching henry's bio.
Brianna's death - it doesn't make any sense.
Are you all right? Emma.
Oh, god.
Emma.
Lie down.
Emma.
Oh, god.
Now, you remember what we told them - it's a dreamscape.
Resist.
It's a dream.
Emma.
No! They're all in there now and they'll pay for what they did.
Mr.
Voight, as i feared, you seem to have lost sight of your immediate goal.
My wife died in the crossfire in a battle between your gsagents and mutant x.
Yes, of course.
Tragedy beyond reckoning.
- I blame mutantx.
- As you should, but and i blame you.
You should have protected her.
She wasn't trained or prepared for those kinds of operations.
If she was out in the field.
What's the matter? You you feeling tired? What do you mean? I wondered how long my toxins would take to seep through your plastic skin.
Remember i showed you the dreamscape? Oh my god.
Are you ready for your nightmare? No! Get me out of here.
This is not happening.
She's a section nine.
You looking for me? Or him, perhaps? Adam.
Adam? They're all here, somewhere.
I know he's not in the pod, henry, because you're not in control here.
I am.
Only for the moment.
where are they? They're around.
Very strong, sturdy group.
They were able to confront their worst fears.
You were lucky to have known them.
I hope you know you can't leave here unless i release you.
I know that.
I'm not planning on letting any of you go.
Henry.
What would you do if i could give you back the thing you want the most? Nothing i want.
Brianna's alive.
Don't lie to me.
She's in section nine.
It's a high security storage area at the gsa.
My wife is dead.
You killed her.
Well, that's what the gsa report said.
But, of course, it's not true.
What if i could give you her back? What would you do? Fine.
If you don't believe me, let's go find eckhart.
Adam? Are you real or just some other horrible figment of my imagination? Tell henry what you know about his wife.
I told him before.
I don't remember a thing about her.
Look at my skin.
The bacteria from all this filth has already infiltrated.
Mason, look at me.
Look at me.
Tell him what a section nine is.
Get me out of here and i'll tell him.
You tell him now.
I'm slightly distracted in here.
Agh when one of our gsagents is deemed unreliable, we put him in section nine.
Is she she dead or not? If she's in section nine, she's alive.
She's in stasis.
Why why didn't you tell me? I didn't know.
She must have been so far down the bureaucratic chain that i wasn't even informed.
She hated working for you.
She hated everything about what you did.
Must have been why her reliability was questioned.
Let the others go.
You can keep me here until you get brianna back.
Wonder why he's not waking up? Maybe henry doesn't want to let him go.
Brianna voight is in a pod in section nine.
If she's not gone, let her out.
Make sure henry finds her.
Make sure they both leave the premises.
And someone find me my clothes.
Adam.
Shalimar.
Hey.
Oh, hey.
Is everybody okay? Yeah.
Henry found his wife? Yeah.
I think so.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have let me go.
Wonder if he and brianna are going to move back into the trainyard together? I don't know if i could deal with seeing henry again.
No.
Well, i don't think you'll have to.
I think they're both long gone.
Well, i hope they live happily ever after.
Yeah, so do i.
