The Sentinels (2025) s01e08 Episode Script
Episode 8
1
We can't wait for you to recover.
We're leaving you.
Madame? You're a journalist?
- Yes.
- It's a dangerous job at present.
- Should I take that as a threat?
- As a warning.
And there won't be another.
Dying with me in a German forest?
Not the end you hoped for.
I'd imagined plenty of ways to die.
But not this.
Seize them.
Did you know that the French
had another program known as Atlas?
I was there.
You and I are connected, Gabriel.
We were both created by Mirreau.
You're sure?
Haven't you been hurt enough?
I want to talk to him
one last time.
Alright.
Salomon, bring him in.
Stay there.
What's your real name?
Bastien.
I'm going to remember you
fondly, Bastien.
I promise.
And you're going
to help me with that.
Open the box.
Pick up the gun.
Please
- Isn't love beautiful?
- Stop it.
So beautiful
Gisèle, I'm sorry.
What matters most, in life?
It's love.
THE SENTINELS
Do you know
why so few of us
survived Project Atlas?
Do you?
Because our blood is different.
And so is yours.
Your power comes
from an anomaly in your blood.
You were born with it.
The serum is merely a trigger.
I'm going to help you to increase
your powers tenfold, Gabriel.
To become even stronger.
This is going to hurt.
Those whom you now serve
will soon betray you.
When your army realizes
who you really are,
they will try to kill you.
You must fight by my side, Gabriel.
Marthe?
It's time.
I'm coming.
Pulse at 210.
215
Pulse at 220.
Adrenalin, nine.
Marthe!
Wait a little longer.
She's breathing.
What now?
We wait.
It's out of our hands, now.
NEXT OPERATION IN CASABLANCA
Here.
The year 1904. That's all of it.
Thank you, Pascal.
Mirror editorial, hello?
Ferraud!
It's for you.
- Hello?
- Mrs. Ferraud? It's Texier.
Meet me tonight at ten.
See you then.
And now?
I'm meeting an ex-employee
from the lab,
who worked with Mirreau.
Be careful.
You've already been threatened once.
If I'm scared, they win.
If that threat was from the Army
we must take it seriously.
But I still have some friends
at the Ministry, so
let me ask
a few questions myself.
Maybe they can tell me more
about this Project Atlas.
There's something else.
My husband is missing.
They said he'd survive his injuries.
Then suddenly they told me
he was dead.
A nurse came to see me
and said that Mirreau
had coerced the doctor.
You think your husband is still alive
and Mirreau had something
to do with it?
I'm considering it, yes.
On your knees.
Ferraud?
Stand up.
Now!
Up!
Your humanity is holding you back.
It is stopping you
from attaining your potential.
You must give up
a part of yourself.
Your morality is your weakness.
Transform yourself.
Kill him.
Kill him.
Ferraud?
What's happening to you?
Kill him!
It's me, Ferraud.
Don't do this.
What are you doing?
Can you hear me?
Kill him!
Stop it!
Stop! Don't do this!
Kill him.
Gabriel?
Ferraud!
Ferraud. It's Djib.
Come back.
Come back.
You are not ready.
I'm not like you.
Not yet.
- What are you doing?
- Stop!
You're not allowed
- Stop!
- No.
Don't shoot.
Aria.
It's me, Marthe.
Don't be afraid.
He has an urgent message
from Berlin.
I'm taking him to the Lieutenant.
Fine.
Soldier?
I don't have long.
General Von Emmich
is waiting for me at the border.
Can you prepare my vehicle
so I can leave promptly?
- Yes, sir.
- I won't be long.
In fact, this will be
even quicker than I thought.
Ferraud?
Ferraud, look at me.
It's De Clermont.
Look. You see?
Are you okay?
Can you walk?
Here.
I'll put it on for you.
Okay?
Let's find Mazauric
and get out of here.
Do you want to live?
The French prisoner, Mazauric.
Where is he?
Go on!
This way?
Intruders!
What is it?
Alarm! Intruders!
Fire at will!
Five on the left!
Come on!
Go down. I'll cover you.
Grenade!
This way, Professor.
Djib!
Keep moving.
Cover us, Ferraud!
Almost there!
I'm out!
Take the wheel.
Ferraud!
What are you doing?
What's wrong?
Madame.
How is your protégé?
She'll need time to recover.
The first heartbreak
is always painful.
You seem to speak from experience.
Since I was 12, men of all ages
have paid me compliments.
I soon learned what that meant
and why I shouldn't trust them.
I wish we had taken time
to know each other better.
You intrigue me.
You wouldn't like my story.
The men who were after Gisèle,
have you questioned them?
No.
Was that your hope?
It was.
You seem to know
more about them than I do.
I know only that Gisèle's talents
are currently in high demand.
I think they were
the British Secret Service.
In any case,
your help has been invaluable,
and
I'll be sure to remember that.
Actually,
I have one final request.
Thank you, De Clermont.
Gabriel
Gabriel.
Ferraud?
He's here.
Let's split up.
I'll stay with you.
Take him back.
That's your mission.
Sergeant.
Ferraud.
Gentlemen
Thank you.
It's me.
It's me he's after.
If you refuse to join our alliance,
then you shall die
and so shall he.
You are powerless against me.
Shut up!
There is no use in resisting.
Stop it!
Ferraud!
You're too weak for this world.
I'll help you leave it.
You're coming with me!
Ferraud! My arm!
Ferraud!
Stop!
Stop.
You were right.
I am like you.
Only stronger.
I cannot die.
Congratulations.
Miss Sainte-Rose has huge potential.
Her awakening was a challenge.
It's a great success, Marthe.
We discovered a hormone
that increases Dyxenal tolerance.
Aria has high quantities
of that hormone.
So I was lucky.
Our discipline has
very little to do with luck.
You should learn
to accept a compliment, Marthe.
Thank you.
And I should learn
to trust you more.
Colonel?
If you want to trust me
To progress in my research,
I'll need total access
to the clinical trial records.
I checked. Not all the archives
are accessible.
Certain files are
Project Atlas.
I need to know.
Once you know,
there's no going back.
I'm ready.
Very well.
Please.
When you joined the program,
you knew
your conscience
would be put to the test.
We had to sacrifice a lot of soldiers
in the name of our country.
Not all those soldiers
were volunteers.
There were over 300 of them.
How could they have been?
It was just the start.
We were finding our way.
But you knew they would die?
It was likely.
Like an officer who knows that
most of his men won't survive battle.
Marthe, there can be no success
without failure.
Colonel.
Yes, Etienne?
They've done it.
They've rescued Mazauric
and are back behind our lines.
If Mazauric is back,
then there's hope for all of us.
What is it?
Ferraud's wife.
She's meeting Texier tonight.
- Texier? One of our staff?
- Yes.
A lab assistant who should
have been fired last year.
A man who likes to gamble
and talk.
If she's meeting him
- She already knows too much.
- I'm afraid so.
It's a hell of a challenge.
- And you like a challenge?
- Yes.
I've been telling the Colonel about
the Lazarus protocol for two years.
88
This will work.
Where's the machine?
So, you didn't go mad after all?
Apparently not.
You know what that means?
Maybe there's something
I can still save.
You'll see them again.
Your abilities are incredible.
You're indispensable to the program.
I'm not sure about that.
They won't be able to refuse.
You'll be able
to see your family again.
You really believe that?
Not really.
Gentlemen.
General Joffre has asked
to greet you in person.
Go see them.
Leave the boring stuff to us.
At ease.
General,
this is soldier De Clermont.
Despite serious injury,
he came to the aid of his comrades.
Without you, Mazauric would still
be with the Germans
and the war would, no doubt,
have been lost.
I knew your father.
The De Clermonts have
bravery in their blood.
Thank you, sir.
I try to follow his example.
You're very alike.
Before long, you too
will be celebrated by patriots.
General,
this is Sergeant Emile Bazac,
also known as Djibouti.
- Sergeant.
- Sir.
I only see two of your men.
Where is soldier Ferraud?
I have no idea, sir.
Miss Fontanay.
You wanted to see me?
I want to help you put a stop
to Colonel Mirreau.
Colonel Mirreau could be
a dangerous man.
I'm tired of being afraid.
If I help you bring him down,
I need assurances.
What kind?
Irène?
Irène!
Put pressure on it.
Stay with me.
Stay.
I'm here, I'm here
