Continuum s01e05 Episode Script

Previously on Continuum.
Who's been in charge in my absence? I have.
Yo, step-bro.
All right, then.
Are you lost? My family used to live there.
Well, we live here now.
I'm a guy with a bad future ready for a fresh start.
We're getting information Liberate has three possible bombing targets.
What type of device? Unknown.
It's electronic signature is cloaked.
We'll be using eyes and ears.
Check your weapons and lock down your gear.
This is going to be one hell of a ride.
Kiera? Greg, are you still with Mr.
Sadler? He's just about to speak.
Why? CPS just got word that Liberate is getting hit after a high value target.
I am worried SadTech could be it.
There's no way they'll ever get in here Greg? The CPS just declared martial law.
Liberate terrorists got inside the safe zone.
Hit a SadTech warehouse.
Greg? Oh God! Greg please! Hang on people! Hang on! Travis has them assembled.
Thank you Sonya! Your loyalty to Travis is inspiring to me.
Thank you.
You could be forgiven otherwise.
My loyalty to Travis is second only to mine for you and to our cause.
I will be in shortly.
What are your orders, Edouard? Due to the Protector's presence here, it seems our plan needs altering.
By about 60 years.
Our goals are still the same.
The Corporate Congress may not yet exist, but its seeds have been planted.
We will ensure it never grows.
We will do this by inspiring a new generation to take up our cause and undermine the very foundations set the Congress will be built on.
But we will not do this By open confrontation.
We are still at war A war we will never win unless we fight it on the enemy's terms.
We don't need guns to transform this world We have the knowledge of what will happen and the power to imagine better.
You are a good soldier.
In my absence you did what you thought was best.
You kept our people together and most of them alive.
But now From this point forward, instead of force to win our battles, we use strategy and knowledge.
How do we begin? By securing our position.
Attack the Protector? Attack her we will.
But not the way she will expect it.
Lily Jones? Is the Protector in sight? Tell me you have the girl.
Yes.
Good.
Hurry.
It's done.
I'm on the move.
No change.
2077, my time, my city, my family.
When terrorists killed thousands of innocents, they were condemned to die.
They had other plans.
A time travel device sent us all back 65 years.
I want to get home.
But I can't be sure what I'll return to if history is changed.
to corrupt and control the present in order to win the future.
What they didn't plan on was me! CONTINUUM S01 Ep05 - A Test of Time Good morning.
Morning Carlos.
Do you something different to your hair? Nope.
Something's different about you.
Same as yesterday.
Actually, Carlos is right.
Don't you start.
Excuse me.
Alec, explain yourself? - Jeez.
- Alec? I, I can't talk.
I've got a malfunction here, serious malfunction Alec.
What I mean is, ever since your suit went on the Fritz you've been acting, well I don't know.
Different? I have? Turning off your HUD.
Trusting your gut.
Very un-future cop.
Maybe Carlos and I should meet and compare notes Even one phone call and you are dead man.
Understood.
No contancting Carlos.
I can see that.
Lily Jones.
Age twenty.
Too young to die.
Look at the estimated time of death.
Yeah, 9:30.
What's up? What's the significance? Garza was shadowing me at that time.
Garza was shadowing you and this is the first I'm hearing of it.
Now you want a ride.
You know what? You're right.
Nothing has changed! I'm complicated.
Ya think? Good morning? Thanks for holding the body for us.
What have we got? Her C2 is subluxated from C3.
Someone very powerful did this.
Should take a look at the bruising around her mouth and chin.
How powerful? I'm speculating she was grabbed by the throat, like so.
And lifted off her feet.
Straight up, with one hand.
Then dumped here.
Credit cards and money still in the wallet.
So it's not a robbery.
Or someone interrupted them.
No track marks if that's what you're looking for.
There were no witnesses? Canvas turned up a homeless guy who may or may not have seen a large man exit the alley.
Or Big Foot.
What about this camera up here? Anything from there? Owner says it's just a prop to scare off the bad guys.
That seemed to have work well.
See if we could round up any of the feeds from cameras that have coverage of this area.
That kind of brute force fits the description of Travis.
I'm assuming that's why we're here because you had a lead that this could be connected to our gang? Lily Jones is the name of a witness, in a case that Section Six was building against Liberate.
The case fell apart.
She recanted and when pressed to testify, she ran.
She just disappeared? Yeah.
Her identity was kept a secret and her files were sealed.
So you're actually checking for identifying marks over there.
My Lily has a butterfly tattoo on the inside of her wrist.
Wait, what, your Lily? Are you actually know her? No.
Of her, we never met.
Okay, so this is either a robbery gone wrong or is just the tip of an iceberg? I should call in my people, get an assessment.
I'll have units re-canvas the area and see what we can come up with from footage of the cameras.
Thanks.
Was that true what you just said about Lily Jones? I mean, I know it wasn't.
But you had me convinced.
What's going on? Lily Jones is my grandmother's name.
They're targeting my family.
Travis, someone's at the door.
I'm back! Get in here! How'd you find us, Kellog? I have an appointment.
I like the new digs.
I can't believe you're still alive.
Seems reports of my death were exaggerated.
That's Twain.
Great writer.
He's got this one about a Connecticut Yankee Anyway, I bear gifts.
I figured you haven't had time to discover all the wonders of this generation All kinds of fruit, juicy, succulent.
You guys have to try these oranges.
They're amazing.
What are you doing here, Kellog? I just come by to say, 'no hard feelings' about leaving me to die with a bomb strapped to my jewels, Travis.
Is this true? He's a deserter.
Regardless.
We don't ever take arms against one of our own.
Ever.
I understand.
You've chosen your own path.
Travis, continue on the endeavor we have begun.
That will allow Matthew and I time to speak.
Did you steal this? Nothing so crass.
With just a little memory recall, I was able to turn a small fortune in the market.
I want anything to do with your money Matthew.
Of course not.
But in terms of funding a full revolution, it's a pretty good start, don't you think? So, now that we're back on the right foot, where do we start? We? While you were satisfying your appetites, I've been considering a more critical problem This girl may not have been my grandmother, but if the gang is looking for Lily Jones', it's only a matter of time before they find the right one.
What, you don't know your own grandmother? Look.
You know everything about me, I hardly know anything about you.
Do you think that's fair? She died in her fifties when I was only four.
So do you think this could be a coincidence? Or are they really targeting you through your family.
I wish I knew.
I gotta go.
Betty is tracking down all the Lily Jones' in the area.
Should have word back soon.
Ready to go? I'll have to catch up.
Have you found a solution? Yes, this is a DNA testing kit we can use to be definite about the results.
Lucas will modify it to be instantaneous.
But we'll need an original tissue sample for a baseline.
I'll get it.
No.
Sonya will go.
Take Gaza, get what you need.
What? No hello? Last time we met here you were holding a live grenade.
Then, we were almost blown up by a mine.
So forgive me for not beeing polite.
I'm exciting to be around, what can I say? So this is a Kevlar optional affair? For you.
Not for your ancestors.
I just met with Kagame.
The danger is real.
They're going after your grandmother.
I already know that.
Why? Well, to get rid of you for starters.
And it's all your fault.
You had to threat Lucas with killing his grandparents.
It got them all going about what might happen if one of our ancestors were killed.
And now Kagame, he want to try a grand experiment to test our paradoxical vulnerability.
Cupcake? So that makes me what Guinea pig? Squeak squeak How'd they even know my grandmother's name? Kagame, he has his ways.
Why would he have that information about my family? Hell if I know.
Look, I don't know all the details about how our escape was arranged, but I do know that the guards were in on it.
Who knows how high the conspiracy went? Maybe whoever arranged it, told him.
Are you telling me that I might be here for a reason? Part of a bigger plan? Given what happened, does anything seem too far fetched to you? If you think I have ulterior motives, join me on my yacht tonight? How about lunch? Deal.
Thanks for the lunch.
You can pick up the check.
Carlos.
Yeah, look, I just spoke with my contacts in Section 6.
They confirmed that the gang are going after our witness and that she's here, in town.
But they killed the wrong girl.
And they just keep going until they find the right one.
So now we round up all the Lily Jones' in the lower mainland and place them in protective custody.
Here you go sir.
So, we've get it done? - We don't have a choice.
- Thanks.
Sorry I'm late! Where's What the hell happened to you? Bike messenger.
I've just stepped out, didn't see him.
You Ok? What have you got? I had Samantha look at all the Lily Jones's that fit the age range.
There's eight of them, nine if you count the dead girl.
We've got their addresses.
I've sent units to their homes, but it's daytime some may be at work or school.
We've got leads.
We can cover more ground if we split up.
That's a good idea.
I'll requisition you a cruiser.
Thanks! They're like drones, blissfully unaware they're being trained into subservience.
Those that seek truth will find it.
This has been programed with the Protector's DNA.
You can use it to match with the girls'.
You think she's going to just sit there while I perform your test? Then kill her first.
That's not what Kagame wants.
Why are you so sure one of the Lily's is here? I just know.
You looked her up before, didn't you? You Googled your grandmother.
I knew she lived here for a while.
I looked up the names and some data.
This woman, she's exactly like my mom said she was.
She's smart, she's intelligent she's involved in the community.
You've been stalking her.
Maybe.
What are you going do? Just walk up her, said "Helloooo, I'm your future granddaughter?" Wait, here she is.
Gotta go! There you are! There I am.
Lillian Jones? I'm Detective Kiera Cameron.
May I have a moment? See ya later.
Ms.
Jones, your life is in danger.
Dad's waiting for us, let's go.
Yeah, about that, I have to take a pass on the meeting tonight.
I'm in the middle of something big.
What, you think Dad isn't? Honestly? What Roland is doing gives me the creeps.
So, if you'll excuse me I have more important things to do than sitting around with a bunch of conspiracy freaks wearing tin foil hats.
Wait! You're always going on about how important whatever it is you do is.
Like you're changing the frickin' world or something.
How 'bout spending some time with your family? You're not my family.
And this grass roots activism of yours isn't changing the world.
It's a joke.
You want to change the world? You have to leave your living room first.
We may not be a real family, Alec.
But we're the closest thing you've got.
You said terrorists are killing women with my name, and you can't give me specifics? No.
I think I'm going to lose it.
Try to stay calm.
What would I do? I'm going to take you into custody, get you somewhere safe Okay.
Excuse me, I've got to take this.
Cameron.
I just got a word that a Lily Jones was involved in an incident.
Incident? An assault of some kind.
Details are sketchy.
Where? Broadway and Granville.
They've got the assailant, too.
Tell them to use extreme caution.
Way ahead of you.
I'm leaving the precinct now.
You go and get Lily and I'll deal with the assailant.
You're at one of the best universities in the country.
Your parents must be very proud.
They are.
They wouldn't be named Jim and Alison by any chance, would they? No.
Kevin and Eve.
Miss Jones.
I need you to come with Is this a joke? This is the victim.
That's Lily Jones.
Let go! Get me the hell out of of here! You may want to get a tetanus shot.
Thanks.
Are you done eyeing me up? Are your parents' names Jim and Alison? Did they send you get me? Because I'm not going and you can't make me.
I'm emancipated.
And that girl owed me money.
I was just trying to collect.
I don't owe you anything you delinquent.
You can't arrest me for a misunderstanding! I'm not arresting you.
Then let me go.
No, you need to come with me.
Your life is in danger.
I get it.
You're here to help.
Clean up the street kids.
Don't bother I've never done anything more than smoke a joint.
This just gets better.
Who's the chick? There is a terrorist group killing women named Lily Jones.
You're Lily Jones.
She's Lily Jones.
I'm taking both of you to the station for protection.
You said you weren't going to arrest me! I'm not.
Relax! I guess we're in a unique club.
Not every day you get chased by a terrorist, - It's very Terminator - Shut up.
I like your necklace.
Is it a butterfly.
I'm just making the best of a bad situation.
You wouldn't know a bad situation if it bit you on your Dolce Gabbanas.
I'd rather take my chances against terrorists than sit here listening to her.
Just let me out anywhere.
Not until you're both safe.
How do I know you're not the danger? Your badge might be fake.
You could be some psycho kidnapping us.
Let go! Let me go! Just take me, bitch.
One Lily Jones is dead already.
I am trying to prevent that from happening again.
Are we clear?! Everything is going to be fine.
Okay? I promise.
Oh God.
Roll down the window.
I'm not going to let you out until we get to the Precinct.
I'm gonna puke.
Not on my purse! Open the window.
That's much better.
Do you have a weird taste in your mouth? Kind of sucking on a nail? Yeah.
How'd you know? I had that when I was pregnant.
I'm only a couple of days late.
Okay.
We need to get you to a Are you guys okay? Are you okay? We gotta get out of the car! Get down.
Came here.
Pull her out, pull her out! Stay down.
Stay down, stay down, stay low! Stay down! Go that way, behind the car! Where's my back up! Carlos is on route! Hang tight.
Kiera can you hear me? Stay down, get down! Kiera, are you okay? You okay? Yeah.
Are you okay? Are you sure we're safe? Carlos took the other Lily to the station.
We're going someplace safer.
I think you missed a few brands back there.
Have friends much? What do you mean by that? You're all like "do this", "do that", "get in the car cuz someone's trying to kill you.
" Kind of Bossy.
Look who's talking.
Yeah.
But I'm the kid.
I'm supposed to be this way.
You're the adult.
You're supposed to be nice.
Get in the car.
Please.
Why aren't you using your CMR? Because I'm with company.
I need you to track some people down for me You're a mind reader.
Kellog, I need you to be on call.
I will have her gassed up and ready to go in one hour.
I have to pee.
Thank you.
I just figured they would be looking for us everywhere, airports, bus terminals, train stations Us? My "relative" and I.
You found her? Okay.
For this I'll expect nothing in return.
We can save that romantic Harbor cruise for another Yeah.
Matthew I understand you've been a busy little bee.
Flitting about, pollinating.
And straying into things you shouldn't.
And now, someone has to pay the price.
Mister Kellog, what's going on why did these people take me? Mattie, Mattie.
.
Are we clear? What's this all about? Lily How you doing in there? I've got 6 more seconds.
False positives happen all the time, right? How are you feeling? Scared.
That's understandable.
Are you kidding me? This is a frickin' nightmare.
I'm not old enough to have a kid! I'm 17! What are you looking at? Nothing.
I just This is horrible.
My life is ruined.
Lily? It's a boy.
I'm gonna call the clinic.
I think it's 1400 life credits or something.
Is that what you want? I just thought given that we I was going to give this to you on your birthday next week.
But considering the circumstances Will you marry me? Yes.
Lily having a baby doesn't mean giving up your dreams, A child adds to them.
You don't get it.
I don't have dreams.
I don't have a job.
I don't have a regular place to crash.
I never even finished High School! I'm just going to get rid of it.
Before you go there.
Think this out.
Talk with the father Jake? That's a great idea.
As soon as I tell Jake, he's gonna ditch my ass.
Lily For all you know, he'll love this baby.
Most people goes their whole lives thinking they know what the future holds for them.
They've got a fantasy of how the world is.
But sometimes, you're going through your day and BANG, there's an explosion and everything you know is gone.
And it makes you wish you'd done things differently You get that? What! They took her.
Took who? Mattie.
My grandmother.
They found out that I tipped you.
And now they're going to use me to get to you.
Get to me how? They want a trade.
Mattie, for Lily.
I'm not good with this, but I'm getting enough.
Bye bye.
So, that's it, I'm free? Still got to get Wait a minute You sure the girl is safe here? We read how the precinct was attacked.
Betty!! How do we know Because our security systems have been upgraded, we're equipped for anything.
I still haven't heard a sufficient plan of how you Please, please, just talk to Betty.
She'll take care of everything.
I gotta take this.
Good luck! This is how it's going to be.
Where are you? I've got a precinct full of Lily's and their parents here.
It's like herding cats.
I'm with my Lily.
Dillon's breathing down my neck.
He wants to know what Section Six wants done with these girls.
I don't have any news.
That's that's great.
But I do have someone else I need you to track down.
Please tell me it's not another Lily? Not exactly.
I'll text you the name.
Everything's okay? I still haven't changed my mind.
When I found out that I was pregnant I didn't think I was ready either.
I was fresh out of the military and starting a new career.
Having a child was the last thing on my mind.
What happened? I told my boyfriend.
And you're still together? Married.
So are you going to tell me why I've been rammed into, chased and shot at? That's complicated.
I'm not going to do this.
I'm by myself.
I don't even have family.
You don't have to.
This little girl is the opportunity for you to start a family of your own.
And one day she will grow up and have a daughter of her own and you will find yourself surrounded by so much love, you'll wonder how you ever got so lucky.
How do you know I'm going to have a girl? Just a hunch.
Lily, I'm going to ask you to do something dangerous.
I need you to trust me.
Yes, okay.
He's ready.
Say what you will about Kellog.
He's very resourceful.
You know, I could get suspended for pulling a stupid stunt like this.
I'll take the heat if anything goes sideways.
Damn straight you will.
Promise me you'll think about telling Jake? He may surprise you.
That's if we make it out of here alive.
We will.
We have to.
We're good? We're good.
Is that her? Send Mattie over.
First you send over the girl.
Change of plans.
That's not her grandmother.
No That's my mother.
She's pregnant.
Yes, with me.
Gaza, give him what he wants.
Let's go.
They won't hurt you.
You okay? I'm not good with this, but I'm good enough.
Bye-bye.
So that's it? I'm free? We've still got to get Wait a minute.
Get down, get down.
No! No, no! Call 911.
It's going to be okay.
Oh, God! Oh, God! Stay with me, stay with me! It's going to be okay.
It's going to be okay.
I've got an ambulance on the way.
Ambulance is coming.
Don't die, don't die, don't die Stay with me, stay with me! You're still alive.
You think I care about that? The ambulance is on it's way It's okay.
Kiera! Sam! Dad! Where were you!? Sadler changed the location of our meeting at the last minute.
He wouldn't let me tell you for security reasons.
We left SadTech 20 minutes before the blast.
Then I tried to call but all communications were down Don't you ever disappear like that again.
If I ever lost you Jake can do his graphic design anywhere, so as long as this new place has got Internet access You take care of her.
Bye.
Bye.
Thank you, Kellog.
I appreciate this.
See you soon.
Kellog is going to cash in this favour.
I can handle Kellog.
The bullet that killed Mattie, according to Kagame's experiment, it should have killed Kellog also.
Why didn't it? That's precisely the problem.
If Kellog had died or disappeared after Mattie was killed, then we would have definitive proof that this timeline is connected to the one you left.
So what does this prove? Unfortunately nothing.
Maybe Mattie wasn't Kellog's biological grandmother.
Maybe you are on a new time line or maybe you aren't and there is no paradox I really don't know The absence of proof is not proof of anything.
Hopefully Kagame now believes they can't get to me through my family.
That's one less thing to worry about.
I gave my word.
My word! You behave like a mad dog, and I will put you down.
Mom! I found the necklace.
It was under your bed.
Thank you sweetie.
It's really old, isn't it? Yes.
My Grandma gave it to me when I was a little girl.
Every game needs its pawns.
Ready to make a change, Julian? They share our anger.
It just needs to be cultivated.
Why would you draw this much attention? Maybe attention is what they wanted.
The revolution starts here.
