Earth: Final Conflict s04e06 Episode Script

Take No Prisoners

Previously on Gene Roddenberry's Earth Final Conflict Who the hell are you? Hayley Simmons.
She leads the resistance up in the Pacific North West.
We need a leader.
Someone who inspire us to action.
I believe that you are that leader Liam.
Hundreds of suspected resistance members have been apprehended in the wake of the attempt on President Thomsons' life.
Ashen-faced Liam The Resistance is finished.
The state of emergency is merely a temporary measure to cut the legs of the resistance.
Just make sure you don't cut your own legs off at the same time.
The state of emergency is now irrevelant.
What is most important, is that all volunteers remain on earth until the resistance is eliminated.
Our first report to of several deaths in a lake Tokana region of New Kenya.
We sent in a survey team to collect samples.
From the bizarre behavior of the victims and some rather wide spread violence we began to suspect this worms had a quite some How shall I put it? Useful qualities.
I'll demonstrate.
Just turn your head to the side, please.
This was two weeks ago.
Since then we've discovered an infestation of the "Planerium Abystus" parasite Who has started been eradicated shortly after your arrival.
And the significance of this? Your proton extermination had an unattended consequence.
It caused the parasite to mutate.
Hardly our fault.
Fault is irrelevant Zo'or.
The new form is now in symbiosys with the african blood worm.
When the worm burrows into the skin, the parasite enters the host, in this case a human.
Enlarges in the nervous system, blocking the neural processors regulariting fear survival, and evidently all manifestations of will power.
- All forms.
- Yes.
Including the will to live.
The host continues to function normally for about an hour then dies, but during that time He's frightened of nothing.
Not even its own death.
Humans with no fear.
Thank you, agent Sandoval.
This has potential.
Definite potential They have come to Earth with the promise of peace An alien race called the Taelons.
But there are those who resist these alien Companions For the Taelons true mission The secrets they hide will forever altered our world Transcription: Jrzac & L.
B.
The fate of humanity now relies on those who dare challenge the future of Earth.
Par La Team Trad EFC Pour Why did Hubble pick this place? I hate French food.
Oh don't take it personally the locations are chosen at random.
Random or not! Can holograms be programmed to be on time? Apparently not the French ones.
"Ah, enfin !" - "Bonjour.
" - "Bonjour.
" You have been expecting me, "n'est-ce pas" ? Yes for thirty minutes.
Tell Hubble to adjust your clock.
You Americans, always in such a hurry.
You have no "Joie de vivre".
No "Je ne sais quoi".
- Your attitude, could use a little adjusting as well.
- I beg your pardon.
"S'il vous plaît" "pouvons-nous commencer, maintenant ?" "Bien sûr.
" It will take a moment for your implants to activate.
- I suspect you can hear me now.
- Load and clear.
Now that we can talk, Hubble introduces progress for the negociations.
The Atlantic National Alliance has successfully negociated amnesty for all resistance members.
Excellent! And everyone's on board ? Western countries have sufficient clout this way they remain in powers.
No, the Taelons won't get behind it.
Amnesty for the resistance support an anti-taelon agenda.
True.
But opposition to the amnesty is now a political liability.
So Zo'or has pledged to guarantee the safety of all who come forward Unbelievable, forgive and forget? Tomorrow, the President will announce an official day of sanctuary.
We need the two of you to spread the word.
Assure your contacts.
It's legitimate.
They can accept amnesty without fear of reprisal.
Under your plate, will be the other details.
If this works it's a new day.
To amnesty.
Amnesty.
Computer : FBI mainframe.
Database.
Database access denied.
Computer Security override.
Voice verification: Sandoval Ronald T.
Voice identity confirmed.
Access denied.
On whose authority? Authority of the Director.
You are order to report immediately.
- I don't buy it.
- I had my doubts.
But I checked it out.
The amnesty is real.
So why the two of you aren't coming forward.
It's a strategic decision.
Certain undercovered jobs like ours, are too valuable to give up just yet.
How convenient for you.
I understand why you're suspicious, who wouldn't be? That's why both be there and it is not a surrender Hayley it's coming out of the cold.
Not good enough.
Earth leaders are finaly waking up.
The A.
N.
A is now more sympathetic to the resistance than ever.
If you come forward, it'll start a groundswell.
You can save the lives of a lot of good people, who fought beside you, who deserve this.
It is time to stand up and be counted.
And what I've been doin' for last six years Liam? It's time that could hiding in the shadows.
You know better than anybody, The resistance as an underground army is doomed.
And you trust the Taelons.
They're sending volunteers on a guard to guaranty the safety of anyone who comes out of the hiding.
Volunteers? - You two have lost your minds! - Now think about it it'll be live on "SatNews".
The volunteers with public opinion the way it is, they want dare do anything suspicious.
So just how and when is this little amnesty love fest's supposed to take place? Wait.
Who are you? Answer me or you're a dead man.
Am I? My name is Justin Kalen Director of Pan Global Security of A.
N.
A.
A star of Intelligent Service! No! A consolidation.
FBI, CIA, NSA, MI-5, MOSAD we are one now.
Your group chief reports to me and so do you Well despite what you think, it's the chain of command Mr Kalen.
I answer to no-one.
Yes that has been the problem.
At present we've only managed to find three of your five off-shore accounts but we'll keep looking.
What do you want from me? I want you as my private source within the taelon hierarchy.
To begin with: I want to know what the Taelons have plan for the resistance amnesty.
I'm limited by what I can do.
- My C.
V.
I compromises - Your C.
V.
I The Tealons have to much confidence in their gadgets.
We've been tracking yours with a remote telemetry, it's been walled off and shut down by your immune system.
You have a choice to make agent Sandoval.
You could be bent.
Or you could be broken, I'm ok either way.
You may go.
Hi! I'm gonna do it.
You're sure about it? Talk to five subcells leaders, they're all on board.
Good.
- Liam is the location still secure? - Tight as a **** I guess only that description does get I gonna show up all night.
We want you getting lost.
Haley what you'll doing, it's gonna make all the difference.
Yeah well, save all the speeches, I'm not doing this for the cause.
You see the little girl on the yellow.
It's Cathy, she's my sister.
She was six, when I went underground.
- I've any idea you had a family.
- Damn right you didn't.
I had my entire history erased.
You think I want the Taelons picking her up.
Where does Cathy think you are? Or your parents? Mom & dad were on the faculty at Duke.
They thought the Taelons will make the world a better place.
They didn't live to see it, they were killed in an accident on the mothership.
Officially Unofficially? They were lost in an early portal failure.
I mean just lost.
They never found out exactly where they went.
Anyway, so Cathy went to live with her aunt.
She thinks I'm dead too.
And how day goes by there I don't regret not being there for her.
You were there for her, Hayley.
She just didn't know it.
We all gonna have a great life.
I'll make it up to her ***** .
X6 to Alpha.
Here it's X6.
Colonel Bastian.
Sir, the resistance leaders are over twenty two minutes late.
US Federal Commander believes that security is now unacceptable.
- Precise timing was our best security.
- What are your intentions Sir? I'd like to get'em a few more minutes.
- That is with the Federal Commander concurs.
- Sir! Come on Hayley.
Something wrong with the portal? Shield's up for.
It's energizing to here.
Well, allright we're here, what now? IncomingIncoming fire! It wasn't us Hayley! Take us out of here! The portal's block.
The shield is still intact, as long you stay there you're safe.
It's a raiding party, open fire.
Raiding party, open fire.
Cease fire! Right side, on your right side.
Down! Get down! Everyone! He's got a photon bomb.
- Time for get them to your stat - Quickly hurry! Coming thru.
How is she? She's about to come out of the ***.
Heart stop twice and her body have to stabilize they say the next twelve hours are critical.
This is all my fault.
You can blame yourself, you did everything you could to make sure they were safe.
But not enough.
She trusted me.
I let her down.
I let everyone everyone down.
- Listen to me.
You torturing yourself, you couldn't give her any guaranties.
War has it's casualties, you know that.
This wasn't a war this people was supposed to be safe.
You think anymore of them will coming after this.
Hayley! Is she gonna make it? I want this place lock down, maximum security, all closed, no one comes or goes without official clears.
- Is that clear! - Yes it is.
Hayley did this for Cathy.
- She would wonder to know what happened.
- I'll handle it.
No, I'm the one who is responsible.
You are no emotional shaped to deal with this right now.
I'll talk to Cathy.
Quick biding yourself up, you did nothing wrong.
What's the body count? Anyone come forward to claim credit for this massacre.
Not yet.
Cowards.
I've got another fine five families that love ones were killed by an enemy we cannot identify.
Could they've been rogue Volunteers? Now you listen to me Kincaid.
We'd orders for years to search and destroy resistance.
We've got new orders now.
We'll follow them too.
Yeah, I'm just thinking out loud.
There's a lot of pro-taelon militia out there, you think about them.
As for my troops.
Let me tell you this: Volunteers are trained to come home.
Those men were on a suicide mission.
Each one of them who was equiped with a plasma flying unit.
I saw them use it.
There's none of 'hem to identify.
We have to admit, it's a perfect covered operation.
I was there that night to defend the amnesty.
I failed in that.
I left the Marines because I believed in the Taelons.
They still want me.
I'm not gonna stop believing in them now.
Thank you.
Cathy? Hi, I'm Renee.
I just introduce myself to your aunt, and she says it's ok if we talk a little bit.
About what? I like your nails colours.
My aunt hates it every nails different color, I change one each day.
What do you want? - I came to tell you about your sister.
- My sister is dead.
I know, that's what you were told, and this is hard to understand but it isn't true.
- I think you should leave.
- Cathy, I have something for you.
I got it from Hayley.
She wanted you to have it.
She wants to see you but she's in a hospital right now, and she is pretty sick.
I thought you might wanna go and visit her.
I don't understand.
If she's alive, where has she been? Well.
I think she'd like to explain it to you herself.
Do you wanna go see her? Trooper Chan, Captain Cytro.
Open your shirt please.
*** to the armrests please.
This won't take long.
Now if you just turn to you head to the side and relax.
He'll be conscious in five minutes and he won't remember a thing.
This is Liam.
They told him we'll be coming to visit.
Hi Cathy.
Haley woke up about 20 minutes ago.
I haven't been in her yet, but I told 'hem you were coming.
Let's go see her.
You're cleared.
- Cathy ! - I prept you a get-well card I made it myself.
- Thank you.
Why are you here? To see how you're doing and to tell you how sorry I am.
Not now Liam, please go.
Just get out! I know you're angry.
You have every right to be.
I'm asking you to undestand, I - Liam, in your back.
- Liam ! Cathy.
Get down! What exactly are we looking at? Parasite.
It burried into the victim skin then travelled to spinal cord at the base of his skull then it grew in his brain.
- Here's the autopsy radiograph - Is it alien ? - No it's not.
What you're looking at is the "Planerium Abystus" who thought was eradicated by the Taelons, but it mutated instead.
Seems it find a new home in the Central African blood worm.
- You said the parasite migrated to the brain? - That's right.
In an area associated with instinct of behavior - My guess is that deactivates the will to survive - That will explain the suicides.
Sixty seconds after infestation the effects are irreversible.
And a host can survive for more than an hour.
An hour it's perfect for a kamikaze mission.
Which means someone figured out how to use this parasite as a weapon.
Any lead point on Chan's duty assignment? Files were classified but I called in a favor.
Martin Chan died three weeks ago in a car accident.
At least that's the cover story.
Who is actually assigned to a secret volunteer training base in Ohio.
Did you get the name? It use to be camp Wilber but it was *** It's on the Pentagon sites that've been turn down, it is supposedly empty.
Major Kincaid, Companion Protector US Army.
This is a restricted base, Major.
Well, I'm on my Compagion business, I'm late for a briefing.
You're not on the raster I don't have the authority to pass you in.
My protector status is my authority, any taelon facility, any volunteer base, anytime.
You cover trooper.
Sign me in, I tell your CO, you're on the ball.
Central base only Major.
Green status are special OPs only.
Got it.
Thanks and then we went in a camping trip.
I didn't like the spiders.
But I became used to them anyway.
That's my graduation.
I got honors in science and math.
Well, I'm impressed.
I'm really sorry I wasn't there watching you grow up.
What did you do when you were away? Aunt Sally says you're very brave.
She said that you helped the country.
I was trying to make it different.
I was trying to get people to tell the truth.
You didn't tell the truth when you made me believe that you were dead.
You're right.
I didn't.
But I promise you, I will never lie to you again.
Now can you make me a promise ? What kind of a promise.
That you forgive me for not being there for you.
I love you Hayley.
Easy, I've got ID.
Just take me to the base Commander.
He is busy, I'll take it from here.
- Just what the hell are you doin'? - Looking for answers.
Not I throw you in a brig, Major but I will let you go with a severe warning.
I appreciate that.
Is it just a coincidence you happen to be here Sir, or are you curious? I am angry.
If my service's sending men on a suicide mission I figure out that I have right to know and to stop that if I can.
I have a proof, That Martin Chan and the others were infected with a neural parasite.
It obliterated their instinct to survive.
This is what his spinal cord look like when they did the postmortem.
- Who did this? - I don't know.
But whoever it is, I have a hunch they're performing procedure somewhere on this base.
Here, maybe this will help.
The base plans haven't been updated since this place was used to the bunker during the SI war - There over 300 000 squares feet of buildings - Any labs? Yeah there were seven including biological weapons.
I wanted have a quiet look around.
But I can't get by their energy fence.
I don't know what green status is but I do know I don't have it and this 50 000 volts between me and whatever is there hiding.
Have you lost your mind? I just got you're message.
I've got blueprints for the base.
All I have to do now is to get inside.
Again, and then what.
My research shows the parasite has a primitive social instinct.
A hive mentality - Ants or bees or something like it.
- Find the hive.
We've got our evidence.
The parasite generates a weak electromagnetic impulse to help it locate others like it.
You're not injecting yourself with this parasite.
I'm not that crazy But I'll be able to track the impulse with this.
Like any radio wave.
Look! I know what you're trying to accomplish here Liam but You got busted once before.
Colonel Bastian is not gonna be there to save you this time.
I'll go in at night.
I'll use stealth technology they can't see the portal of entry they won't even know I'm inside.
Alright let's say you find a nest? What happens if you get bitten? An anti-parasitic.
I've got sixty seconds to inject myself, no problem.
No no no, there's gonna be an other way.
It's a Volunteer base, ultimatly it's under taelon control tell Da'an, get him to look into it.
If we're trying take it through channels by the time we get there, it will be empty.
This is the only way.
Besides I owe it to Hayley.
Are you just gonna stand there or are you gonna say hello? Not sure I'm welcome.
Liam look things I said that's just, put it all down to the pain killers I forget about it.
No, you have very right to be angry.
It's me, should be doing the apologizing.
Why? I heard about the parasite.
It was a suicide mission.
Take no prisoners.
Nothing you could have done would have stop that attack.
It shouldn't be led off the *** that easy.
We all need to be forgiven.
Cathy says she doesn't blame me but it's gonna take some time.
As soon as I'm better we're gonna go on a trip and trying figure things out.
Where are you going? Anywhere.
Everywhere.
Taelons changed everything I want to talk her about it.
- She might not have the same point of view - I don't expect her to.
She's lived with the Taelons nearly all her life.
She accepts them as a natural part of things.
We just going to have to find some kind of coming ground.
So she can undersand what I've been doing with my life.
I want you to know I'm doing everything I can to find out who is responsible for what happened.
*** before I'll reading report.
Report? You're looking at the newly appointed resistance representative of the A.
N.
A.
Can you believe it, me in a desk job? No.
I'm sure, I need you.
So You have to get better.
The synode expects success.
Your survival is secondary.
In fact it is contrary to mission objectives.
When the mission is complete activate your plasma units and self-immolate.
Target information and securecom frequencies are loaded into your tactical globals.
Gentlemen your sacrifice is noble.
We are in service to a bedeviled force.
Failure is not an option.
Primary defenses are laid.
Shuttle's masking frequency should keep the radar off us.
Right, I read one sentry.
At his patrol rate you have a one minute window to clear your entry point.
That should be enough.
No other lifeforce for fifty yards, it's only this sentry in this dark.
I've got a strong reading on the parasite frequency.
North-West.
Hurry, the sentry headed your way, move! Alright I'm inside.
I'm right on top of the strong signal.
Either there is nothing in here? Or they're pretty certain of security in this part of the base.
Check your power needle.
I've got it.
Keep me on the scope.
I'm on ground zero, breeding African blood worms.
- Is it the nest? - It is another one to see it.
You pushing it Liam.
Burn them out and get back here.
Well, they can always make more But I can at least get a global record.
I'm setting the fusion grenade.
Five more minutes tops.
Liam I hear a gun fire.
They found me.
Liam? What's happening? Liam talk to me, are you alright? - What the hell is going on? - I've been bit I lost the *** - Get back here now! And disable the barrier.
- Easy.
- It's ok.
I'm alright.
I had no choice but to destroy the entire facility.
Nothing survived.
Here's the proof you requested.
The breeding facility, you convince it was unique? I have no indication otherwise.
It's unfortunate you couldn't bring a live specimen.
Useful on it's own way.
Any idea if this is their final objective? They were sending out a raiding party, any thoughts to its target? No Mr Kalen.
None.
Agent Sandoval! Nice try.
- Put the report on my desk.
- Yes doctor.
You were being debriefed.
I couldn't reach you.
They move her? Discharge her.
She died.
Last night While we were in Ohio.
In her sleep.
She was out of danger.
It was an embolism.
A near bubble in one of the heart race Came out of nowhere.
Sudden.
Unpredictable.
Surgeon told me that it it can happen sometimes when there is so much reconstruction It's rare.
Hayley was I'm so sorry.
Was she It's cruel.
Taelons detest her but you did everything you could to make it up to her last night.
Believe that.
Cathy.
I remember Hayley the way I always knew her.
The best, most perfect sister, anybody could ever have.
Just like I imagined her when she was gone.
You didn't make her up.
She was real.
She was the best.
And a lot of people are gonna remember her that way.
As the best kind of person.
She gave everything for what she believed.
And all she wanted was to make this a better world for you.
For us.
For all of us.
All the guard, on my command.
Aim Fire.
Aim Fire.
Aim Fire.
