Mutant X s03e18 Episode Script

In Between

I DON'T KNOW, MAN, I THINK YOU'RE LOSING IT.
THAT GIRL BARELY KNEW YOU WERE THERE.
WHAT ARE YOU EVEN TALKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW? SHE HAD HER EYES ALL OVER ME.
OH, DOES THAT EXPLAIN THAT WARM RECEPTION YOU GOT WHEN YOU ASKED FOR HER NUMBER, HUH? I HATE TO BREAK IT TO YOU BUT IN SOME COUNTRIES, IT'S CONSIDERED AN ENGAGEMENT WHEN YOU GET SLAPPED.
AH.
WHERE'S WHERE'S SHALIMAR AND LEXA? I DON'T KNOW.
GETTING RID OF SOME DUDES? Biker: WRONG PLACE, WRONG TIME.
Biker: LOOKS LIKE YOU BOYS MADE A REAL BIG MISTAKE.
OH YEAH? HOW DO YOU FIGURE? Biker: 'CAUSE YOU'RE ABOUT TO GET YOUR ASSES KICKED.
GETTING OUR ASSES KICKED? WHAT DO YOU THINK? COULD BE FUN.
Biker: YOU'LL DIE LAUGHING.
LEAVE THEM ALONE FOR TWO MINUTES WHAT? GUYS! GUN BEHIND YOU! AHH! JESSE! OH SCIENTIST ADAM KANE WAS A PIONEER OF GENETIC RESEARCH, MANIPULATING DNA TO SAVE HUMAN LIVES.
BUT IN MANY, THEIR GENES UNEXPECTEDLY MUTATED AND THEY DEVELOPED SUPERHUMAN ABILITIES.
TOGETHER, FOUR OF THE MOST POWERFUL FIGHT TO PROTECT A WORLD THAT DOESN'T EVEN KNOW THEY EXIST.
THEY ARE MUTANT X.
BRENNAN, THIS IS DR.
ROBINSON.
YEAH, HURRY UP.
HE'S IN THE LAB.
HOW IS HE? HE'S NOT FEELING GOOD.
HE'S BARELY CONSCIOUS.
THEY SAID HE WAS SHOT.
WAS HE MASSED OUT? YES.
WHAT? THE DOMINION SENT OVER HIS MEDICAL FILES.
THIS WAY? OH YOU'RE GONNA BE OKAY, JESS.
UH WHAT'S GOING ON, DOC? I'M NOT SURE.
AGH HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE? I MEAN, HE WAS MASSED OUT - HOW CAN HE BE SHOT? HOLD HIM DOWN! COME ON, SHAL.
I WANT TO STAY.
LOOK, THE BEST THING WE CAN DO FOR JESS RIGHT NOW IS TO FIND OUT WHO DID THIS.
OKAY? COME ON.
BE STRONG, JESSE.
EASY, JESS.
EASY.
UH YOU A TELEPATH? YES.
SOMETIMES IN CASES OF SEVERE TRAUMA, HEALING OF THE MIND IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THE HEALING OF THE BODY.
RIGHT THERE.
WHAT'S INSIDE HIM IS NOT JUST A BULLET.
IT'S PACKED WITH ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS.
HEY, BUDDY.
HOW ARE YOU DOING? WHAT HAPPENED? YOU TOOK A BULLET FOR ME.
BUT I WAS MASSED.
I KNOW.
IT'S A SPECIAL KIND OF BULLET.
IT HURTS, BRENNAN.
I KNOW, BUDDY.
LOOK, YOU JUST HANG IN THERE, OKAY? YOU'RE IN GOOD HANDS.
WHAT THE HELL IS IN HIM? I'M NOT SURE, BUT WHATEVER IT IS I HAVE TO GET IT OUT.
NOW I CAN'T USE ANESTHETIC - HE'S TOO WEAK.
IT'LL KILL HIM.
Doctor: EVERYTHING'S GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT, JESSE.
HELLO? Voice: HOW'S JESSE? WHO IS THIS? Voice: THE BULLET IN HIS BODY CONTAINS ENOUGH EXPLOSIVE TO TAKE OUT HALF OF SANCTUARY.
I HAVE THE DETONATOR.
Lexa: ANYTHING HAPPENS TO JESSE THAT'S ENTIRELY UP TO YOU.
I HAVE THE POWER TO SAVE HIM.
IN EXCHANGE FOR WHAT? I'LL LET YOU KNOW.
OH, A TIP - AS A SIGN OF GOODWILL.
TELL YOUR DOCTOR IT'S POINTLESS TO OPERATE.
ANY ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE BULLET WILL KILL HIM.
COME ON.
UH COME ON! UGH NO! DON'T! DON'T WHAT? WE JUST TALKED TO THE GUY WHO SHOT JESSE.
HE SAID TRYING TO REMOVE THE BULLET WILL KILL HIM.
WHAT IS THAT? WHAT? TELL ME WHAT'S GOING ON! YOU'RE STARTING TO MASS AROUND THE BULLET.
THE INCISION HAS TRIGGERED A DEFENSE MECHANISM.
IT'S USING A PROTON COUPLER TO CONNECT DIRECTLY TO YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM.
IT'S USING YOUR OWN POWERS AGAINST YOU, JESSE.
JESS.
YOU HAVE TO TRY TO STOP IT, OKAY? I CAN'T.
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO CONTROL IT.
DOC, WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? I'M NOT SURE.
BUT UNLESS I FIND A WAY TO STOP IT, THE MASSING WILL CONTINUE AND THEN IT WILL REACH HIS VITAL ORGANS.
IF THEY'RE MASSED FOR TOO LONG, THE VITAL ORGANS WILL CEASE TO FUNCTION.
AND JESSE WILL DIE.
THERE'S MORE.
THE BULLET'S EXPLOSIVE.
THAT CREEP WHO SHOT HIM AS THE DETONATOR.
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? I DON'T KNOW.
BUT HE WILL CALL AGAIN.
OKAY.
I GOT THE TRACE SET UP.
YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO KEEP HIM ON THE PHONE FOR AT LEAST 40 SECONDS.
NO PROBLEM.
YEAH.
HOW'S THE PATIENT DOING? WHAT DO YOU WANT? A MUTANT.
HER NAME IS LAURA BROOKS.
SHE'S BEING HELD IN A POD.
ALL PODS WERE DESTROYED.
NO.
NOT HERS.
SHE WAS TAKEN BY THE MILITARY AFTER THE COLLAPSE OF GENOMEX.
WELL, WHERE IS SHE? WELL, IF I KNEW THAT, I WOULDN'T NEED YOU, NOW WOULD I? I'M AWARE OF THE ACCESS AND CONNECTIONS MUTANT X HAS.
USE THEM TO FIND HER AND BRING HER TO ME.
YOU HAVE FOUR HOURS.
WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.
HOLD ON, HOLD ON.
I'M THINKING REALISTIC HERE.
YOU KNOW, FOUR HOURS ISN'T POSSIBLE.
YOU BETTER HOPE IT IS IF YOU WANT YOUR FRIEND TO LIVE.
FOUR HOURS UNTIL I DETONATE THE BULLET.
IF YOU'VE ACTIVATED ITS POWERS, MAYBE EVEN LESS.
LOOK, LISTEN TO ME THEY'LL NEVER FIND HER.
THE DOMINION WILL HAVE BURIED HER TOO DEEP.
THEY'LL HAVE TO IF THEY WANT THEIR FRIEND TO LIVE.
IT'S A LOT OF TROUBLE FOR ONE WOMAN.
SHE'S WORTH IT.
OKAY.
I THINK I FOUND IT.
LOOKS LIKE THE CALL CAME FROM THERE.
WHAT? OH OH, DAMN.
HE'S FOUND A WAY TO ROUTE THE SIGNALS THROUGH MULTIPLE CELLS.
WE'RE NEVER GOING TO GET HIM IN TIME.
LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET HIM WHAT HE WANTS.
JESSE, RELAX.
THE MORE AGITATED YOU ARE, THE QUICKER THE MASSING WILL SPREAD.
I CAN'T CONTROL IT! JESSE! WE'RE LOSING HIM! THERE'S GOT TO BE SOMETHING WE CAN DO.
I CAN CONNECT YOUR MIND DIRECTLY TO HIS.
YOU'RE A FAMILIAR PRESENCE.
GO IN AND STABILIZE HIM.
MAKE HIM FORGET ABOUT THE BULLET.
I'LL DO WHAT EVER I CAN.
ALL RIGHT.
SIT DOWN.
ARE YOU READY? READY.
WHAT THE HELL IS THIS, JESS? IT'S THE END! IT'S OVER.
NO, THIS ISN'T REAL, JESS.
YOU'RE PANICKING.
IT'S YOUR IMAGINATION.
I'M DYING, MAN.
OH OH THIS ISN'T REAL, JESSE.
I'M ONE STEP AWAY FROM DEATH.
THIS IS AS REAL AS IT GETS.
COME ON, MAN.
YOU CAN'T GIVE UP NOW.
YOU WANT TO LIVE, MAN.
COME ON, YOU GOTTA THINK OF THE GOOD TIMES.
AGH! AGH! HEY! I THOUGHT WE AGREED - NO POWERS.
NO, YOU AGREED.
I SCORED.
I'D FORGOTTEN.
WHAT? YOU'LL DO ANYTHING TO WIN! BRENNAN? BRENNAN? DID IT WORK? YES.
THE MASSING HAS STOPPED INCREASING.
NOW THAT HE'S MORE STABLE, WE HAVE TO TRY AND DISABLE THE BULLET'S DEFENSE MECHANISM AND REMOVE IT SAFELY.
OKAY.
WHAT ARE OUR CHANCES? NOT GOOD.
OH, DOCTOR, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND.
HE'S IN THIS REALLY CRAZY PLACE.
HE BELIEVES THAT HE'S DYING.
YES, BUT YOU HAVE TO STAY STRONG FOR HIM.
IF HE SENSES YOUR FEAR, IT WILL MAKE HIS WORSE.
OKAY.
THEN GIVE ME SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN, THEN.
PLEASE? ALL RIGHT.
I'LL DO THE BEST I CAN.
OKAY.
JESSE? HOW'S IT COMING? NOT GOOD.
THE GUY WANTS US TO FIND A PODDED MUTANT NAMED LAURA BROOKS, AND WE'VE GOT ABOUT THREE HOURS TO FIND HER.
I'VE RUN HER NAME THROUGH EVERY DATABASE I CAN THINK OF.
AND WHEN GENOMEX WAS DESTROYED, A LOT OF THE RECORDS DISAPPEARED.
HE SAID THE MILITARY HAD HER, BUT WE'VE TRIED THAT, TOO.
I MEAN, WE'VE CRACKED EVERY MILITARY AND GOVERNMENT BASE.
THERE'S NOTHING.
OUR BEST BET IS TO GIVE THIS GUY WHATEVER IT IS THAT HE WANTS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
DON'T WORRY.
WE'RE GOING TO DO IT.
ALL RIGHT, THE DOC AND I SET UP THE FORCE FIELD CONTAINER JUST IN CASE WE GET THE BULLET OUT.
THAT'S GOOD.
I'M GOING TO GO STAY WITH JESS, OKAY? JUST LET ME KNOW IF ANYTHING CHANGES.
WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS.
I KNOW.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING? TO TALK TO THE DOMINION.
ADAM SAID WE CAN'T TRUST THEM.
YEAH, BUT THEY DON'T KNOW THAT.
THEY STILL TRUST US.
THE BULLET HAS AN INTERNAL POWER SUPPLY THAT ALLOWS US TO CONTROL JESSE'S NERVOUS SYSTEM.
NOW IF WE CAN STOP THAT, IT COULD BE RENDERED HARMLESS.
HOW CAN WE DO THAT, THOUGH? I CAN'T.
BUT MAYBE YOU CAN.
WHAT I'D LIKE YOU TO DO IS DELIVER A CONTROLLED ELECTRICAL CHARGE, ENOUGH TO DAMAGE THE ELECTRONICS IN THE BULLET.
THAT COULD KILL HIM! NO, IT WON'T - IF YOU DON'T DISRUPT HIS HEART RHYTHMS.
OH, YEAH, THAT'S A GREAT IDEA.
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW IF I'M DOING THAT? I'LL TELL YOU.
YEAH JESS, YOU STAY WITH ME.
READY.
GOOD, IT'S WORKING.
UH UH.
IT'S TOO MUCH! NO, GIVE IT MORE.
ALL RIGHT.
STOP! WHAT'S HAPPENING? THE MASSING HAS STARTED AGAIN.
THE BULLET'S DEFENDING ITSELF.
IT'S GETTING WORSE? IT'S HEADING FOR HIS LUNGS.
PUT ME BACK IN.
JESS, HOLD ON, MAN.
I SCREWED UP, MAN.
I'M SORRY.
IT'S MY FAULT.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
YOU'RE JUST TRYING TO HELP.
I GOT YOU NOW.
ALL RIGHT, COME ON.
DON'T GIVE UP ON ME, JESS.
I GOT YOU NOW.
WE'RE GOING TO BEAT THIS.
THAT'S GOOD.
COME ON.
JUST REMEMBER - WE'RE A TEAM.
WE ALWAYS KICK ASS TOGETHER.
RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING, WE'VE NEVER LOST NOW WHEN IS THAT ECKHART GONNA LEARN? NO MATTER HOW MANY GUYS HE SENDS AFTER US, YOU'RE ALWAYS OUTNUMBERED.
HUH? NICE.
WELL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Doctor's voice: THAT'S GOOD, BRENNAN.
THE MASSING IS SLOWING.
JESS, GOOD.
YOU'RE GETTING BETTER, MAN.
KEEP CLIMBING.
JUST REMEMBER, WE'VE BEEN THROUGH WORSE AND SURVIVED.
THINK ABOUT IT.
JESSE! JESSE, UNPHASE! I CAN'T! JESSE, CONCENTRATE! THE LONGER YOU STAY UNSTABLE, THE MORE DANGEROUS IT IS.
JESSE, FOCUS.
COME ON, JESS.
YOU HAVE A COUPLE OF SECONDS.
AFTER THAT, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO REFORM! TAKE IT EASY NOW.
GOOD WORK.
I'M PROUD OF YOU, MAN.
NOW THERE'S A LEDGE ABOVE YOU.
JUST REACH UP WITH YOUR RIGHT HAND.
I DON'T KNOW, MAN.
JUST REACH THAT HANDHOLD.
IT'S RIGHT ABOVE YOU.
YOU CAN DO IT.
COME ON! JUST REST A BIT.
WHAT YOU'RE ASKING IS IMPOSSIBLE.
I'M ASKING YOU TO FIND ONE WOMAN.
YOU WANT US TO LOCATE A DANGEROUS MUTANT SO YOU CAN DELIVER HER TO AN UNKNOWN OPERATIVE FOR AN UNKNOWN REASON.
YEAH, WELL, I DON'T GIVE A DAMN! JESSE'S DYING.
YOU SEEM TO HAVE LOST YOUR USUAL GOOD JUDGMENT.
PERHAPS YOU'VE BECOME OVERLY INVOLVED WITH MUTANT X.
WHAT DID YOU EXPECT? I LIVE WITH HIM.
I WORK WITH HIM.
HE'S SAVED MY LIFE.
OF COURSE, I'M INVOLVED.
I'M NOT GOING TO LET HIM DIE.
YOU SURPRISE ME, MISS PIERCE.
I'LL SEE WHAT I CAN DO.
YOU SURPRISE ME, TOO.
SO DO YOU REALLY CARE ABOUT HIM OR WAS THAT ALL JUST FOR EFFECT? WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE? YOU HAVE ONE HELL OF AN IMAGINATION! YEAH.
YOU KNOW, I NEVER THOUGHT IT'D BE LIKE THIS.
WHAT? DYING.
I ALWAYS THOUGHT IT WOULD BE FOR SOMETHING MEANINGFUL, NOT AN AMBUSH BY SOME GUY I DON'T EVEN KNOW.
YOU'RE NOT DYING.
JESS! Doctor: BRENNAN, YOU HAVE TO COME OUT OF THERE! WHY'D YOU PULL ME OUT? WE'VE HAD A SETBACK.
THE MASSING IS GETTING WORSE.
IT'S TOO DANGEROUS.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN? THE MIND AND BODY ARE TOTALLY INSEPARABLE.
WHEN I CONNECT YOU, YOUR ENTIRE BEING IS LINKED TO JESSE'S.
IF JESSE DIES WHILE YOU'RE CONNECTED, YOU'LL DIE, TOO.
THEN DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN.
PUT ME BACK IN.
THE WOMAN YOU'RE LOOKING FOR IS IN A GOVERNMENT WAREHOUSE, UNIT 2509.
ALL THE INFORMATION YOU'LL NEED IS IN HERE.
YOU SHOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM GETTING IN.
LEXA YOU'LL BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES OF THIS ACTION.
I ALREADY KNEW THAT.
PERSONAL INVOLVEMENT IS A BAD IDEA IN OUR LINE OF WORK.
YEAH, WELL, SOMETIMES IT'S UNAVOIDABLE.
I'D BE SORRY TO LOSE YOU.
YOU'RE ONE OF MY BEST OPERATIVES.
WELL, THAT SOUNDS LIKE A LITTLE PERSONAL INVOLVEMENT.
NOT AT ALL.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP TONIGHT.
JUST LET ME GO! THERE'S NO POINT! I NEVER THOUGHT YOU WERE SUCH A COWARD! I'M NOT A COWARD.
I JUST CAN'T HOLD ON ANYMORE.
YOU'RE GIVING UP, JESS.
THAT'S NOT YOU.
YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME.
HANG ON, JESS.
YOU JUST GOTTA REMEMBER THE GOOD TIMES.
WE'RE IN THIS TOGETHER.
JUST LIKE WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN.
SO, SOLDIER, DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BECOME A MEMBER OF OUR TUNNEL QUEST TEAM? HEY! THAT WAS CLOSE.
YEAH, TELL ME ABOUT IT.
GOOD JOB, GIRL.
AH, THAT'S IT.
I'M HITTING THE SHOWER.
ME FIRST.
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU GUYS THINK YOU'RE DOING? JUST HAVING A LITTLE INNOCENT FUN.
LEX, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT I'VE DONE THERE.
I'VE TOTALLY IMPROVED SANCTUARY'S HOLO SYSTEM BY MODIFYING THE GAME TO MATCH OUR SPECS.
NICE GOING, NERD-WONDER.
NOW DELETE IT.
WHAT? DO IT! OR I'LL SMASH YOUR COMPUTER IN HALF.
SHAL, YOU ARE TOTALLY OVERREACTING.
WELL, I GUESS IT WAS FUN WHILE IT LASTED.
DUDE, THIS IS TOTALLY YOUR FAULT.
JESS, YOU GOTTA HELP YOURSELF UP, MAN!! COME ON! PULL YOURSELF UP! I CAN'T.
BE STRONG, JESSE.
COME ON! THE POD WE'RE LOOKING FOR IS HERE SOMEWHERE.
YOU STOPPED THE SPREAD OF MASSING, BUT IT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH.
BLOOD OXYGEN IS LOW.
HIS LUNGS ARE AFFECTED.
YOU NEED TO WORK HARDER, MAN.
YOU NEED TO SHRINK THE MASSING.
I CAN'T.
YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN STRONGER THAN YOU THINK.
YEAH.
EVERYBODY READY? GO! I'M PICKING UP SOME ACTIVITY ABOUT TWO MILES FROM HERE.
TWO PLANES AND THEY'RE HEADED THIS WAY.
MISSILES- LOOK OUT! OKAY, LOOK, I'M GOING TO TRY SOMETHING.
HOLD ON TO YOUR SEATS, GUYS.
GET READY TO DIVE.
GO! THEY'RE COMING BACK AT US.
DO THEY HAVE MISSILE LOCK? I'M NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT AGAIN.
JESSE, YOU HAVE TO PHASE THE HELIX.
I CAN'T DO THAT.
BUT WE DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER CHOICE.
JUST DO IT! YOU CAN TRY! JESSE, YOU HAVE TO.
YOU DON'T HAVE A CHOICE.
THEY'RE GETTING CLOSER.
JESSE DO IT! COME ON, BROTHER.
COME ON.
AGH! AGH! YEAH.
IS THAT WHAT IT FEELS LIKE WHEN YOU PHASE? I DON'T THINK I COULD DO THAT AGAIN.
WELL, YOU MAY NOT HAVE TO.
OH! DIRECT HIT.
YES.
LET'S GO HOME.
SEE? YOU DIDN'T THINK YOU COULD DO IT THEN EITHER.
Doctor: IT'S WORKING.
THE MASSING IS SHRINKING.
KEEP IT UP.
YOU'RE DOING IT.
SHALIMAR AND LEXA ARE GOING TO DELIVER WHAT THIS GUY WANTS.
IT'S ALMOST OVER.
THAT'S WEIRD.
SOMEONE INSIDE? NO.
THAT'S JUST IT.
NO ONE'S BEEN HERE FOR A LONG TIME.
CREEPY PLACE.
YEAH.
DON'T SUPPOSE THE DOMINION LAID A TRAP FOR US I DON'T KNOW.
IT'S HERE.
I DON'T LIKE THIS.
THIS IS WAY TOO EASY.
LOOK, LET'S JUST GET HER AND GET OUT OF HERE, ALL RIGHT? SHE'S DEAD.
NO! OH, GOD.
GREAT.
YES.
TICK TOCK.
DID YOU LOCATE HER? WELL, WE HAVE THE POD, BUT WE DON'T KNOW HOW TO REVIVE HER.
OF COURSE YOU DO.
I HOPE YOU'RE NOT STALLING FOR TIME IN THE VAIN HOPE YOUR DOCTOR WILL BE OF SOME USE.
I ASSURE YOU I KNOW MORE ABOUT JESSE'S ANATOMY THAN ANY DOCTOR.
I'M THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN SAVE HIM.
WHO'D KNOW THAT MUCH ABOUT JESSE? I DON'T KNOW BUT JESSE MIGHT.
BRENNAN? DID YOU GET THE WOMAN? YEAH, SHE DIED IN THE POD.
DAMN.
THE GUY WHO SHOT JESSE CLAIMS TO KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM.
IT'S GOT TO BE SOMEBODY JESS KNOWS.
YEAH, I'LL TRY AND FIND OUT.
THE WOMAN WE'RE SUPPOSED TO DELIVER IS DEAD.
AND THE BOMB'S GOING TO EXPLODE IN FIFTEEN MINUTES.
WELL, THEN, I HAVE NO CHOICE.
I HAVE TO OPERATE.
OKAY.
NOW, WE KNOW HE CAN CONTROL THE MASSING, EVEN SHRINK IT.
I WANT YOU TO MAKE SURE HE BELIEVES THAT.
OKAY.
I NEED TO TALK TO HIM BEFORE YOU MAKE THE OPERATION HAPPEN.
MAKE IT QUICK.
OKAY.
IT'S SOMEONE WHO'S EXAMINED ME? KNOWS MY MUTANT ANATOMY? YEAH.
HOW DOES THE BULLET WORK? THE DOCTOR SAYS IT'S USING A PROTON COUPLER PROTON COUPLER? YEAH.
WHY? WHEN I WAS AT GENOMEX SCAN HIS SYSTEM.
I WANT TO TRY SOME NEUROLOGICAL EXPERIMENTS.
THAT COULD BE DANGEROUS.
HE MIGHT NOT SURVIVE YES.
START WITH THE PROTON COUPLER.
THAT SHOULD ALLOW ME TO ESTABLISH CONTROL OF HIS NERVOUS SYSTEM.
IT'S ECKHART'S RIGHT HAND MAN, DR.
HARRISON.
GO GET HIM FOR ME.
AGH AGH GUYS, IT'S HARRISON.
FROM GENOMEX.
YOU GOTTA FIND HIM.
ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO DO THIS? I CAN'T GUARANTEE ANYTHING.
DO WHATEVER IT IS YOU HAVE TO DO.
I'M NOT LETTING HIM DIE IN THERE ALONE.
JESS, YOU'VE ALREADY DONE THIS BEFORE.
ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS FIGHT.
WORK WITH ME! OKAY WELL, THAT BULLET FRIED THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM.
MUST HAVE SHEARED A HYDRAULIC LINE.
PULL UP! I'M TRYING! THE CONTROLS ARE FROZEN! WE GOTTA LAND NOW! LAND?! JESS, I CAN'T EVEN KEEP HER LEVEL! STILL FROZEN! WE'RE AT LESS THAN TWO THOUSAND FEET.
ANY IDEAS? UH, YES.
MAYBE YOU COULD TRY JUICING ONE OF THE HYDRAULIC LINES IN AN ELECTRICAL ARC, IT MIGHT HEAT UP THE FLUID ENOUGH TO GIVE US THE PRESSURE WE NEED, BUT I DON'T KNOW, BRENNAN.
TAKE THE CONTROLS.
ALL RIGHT.
IT'S WORKING, BRENNAN! WE'VE LEVELED OFF, FIFTEEN HUNDRED FEET.
NICE.
GUYS, THERE'S A SCHOOLYARD BELOW US.
OKAY, I'M TAKING HER DOWN.
THAT WASN'T SO BAD, HUH? JESSE! YOU GOTTA FIGHT IT! WHENEVER HENRY TRIES TO MAKE YOU BELIEVE THIS, 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 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, NO HEY, NO.
NO.
NO, THERE NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
NO.
NO.
NO ARE YOU ASKING TO NEGOTIATE YOUR FREEDOM FOR CERTAIN INFORMATION, MR.
KILMARTIN? 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 ME! OH! DON'T! NO NO IT'S NO USE, BRENNAN.
I CAN'T DO IT.
I KNOW YOU CAN DO THIS.
IT'S BEEN A LOT TOUGHER BEFORE.
AGH! ADAM, WHERE DOES IT SAY THAT YOU GET TO MAKE THE DECISIONS FOR EVERYBODY? WHAT? JESSE, ARE YOU OKAY? WAS I TALKING TO YOU? HEY, WHOA HEY, DON'T USE THAT TONE ON ME, ADAM! I'VE HAD IT! AND I'VE HAD IT WITH YOUR ATTITUDE TOO, JESSE.
AGH! HEY! HEY! WAIT! UGH WAIT! HEY! STOP IT, YOU TWO! SHALIMAR OH YOU ALL RIGHT? YEAH, I'M FINE.
ALMOST GOT IT.
COME ON, JESSE.
COME ON! YOU CAN DO IT! JESSE, COME ON.
COME ON, JESS.
COME ON, JESSE! COME ON! COME ON! I CAN'T HOLD ON ANY LONGER.
JESSE! FIGHT IT! NO.
LET ME GO.
NO! NOT A CHANCE! IF YOU DIE, I DIE.
UGH COME ON! I DON'T WANT YOU TO DIE.
NOT A CHANCE.
YOU'RE STUCK WITH ME.
AGH! YOU GOT TO CONCENTRATE ON SURVIVING! YOU GOT TO REMEMBER WHY YOU WANT TO LIVE! ALRIGHT, I TAKE BACK ANYTHING BAD I EVER SAID ABOUT YOU.
AH I'M GOING TO REMEMBER THAT.
NICE INSTALLATION.
TOP-NOTCH SECURITY SYSTEMS.
WELL, SINCE HE'S A HOLOGRAM, HIS WEAPONS CAN'T HURT US, RIGHT? NOT AS FAR AS I KNOW.
UGH UGH JESS! DO SOMETHING! WHO ARE YOU? SERGEANT KNOLL, TUNNEL SQUAD UNIT LEADER.
THINK YOU COULD WITHSTAND AN INCREASE IN THE VOLTAGE? AGH! AGH! AAGH!! I REALLY EXPECTED YOU TO PUT UP MUCH MORE OF A FIGHT.
GAME OVER, BOYS.
SWEET DREAMS.
BRENNAN COME, JESSE, WE'VE GOT TO GO UP, MAN.
COME ON.
COME ON, BUDDY.
YOU'RE GONNA MAKE IT.
STAY WITH ME, BUDDY, WE'RE GONNA MAKE IT.
THERE'S SOMETHING I WANT TO TELL YOU, BRENNAN.
YEAH, YEAH.
I LOVE YOU, TOO, MAN.
NO.
YOU SUCK AT BASKETBALL.
THAT'S THE BIG THING? THAT THAT'S IT? THAT'S THE BIG THING THAT YOU WANTED TO TELL ME? AND WHAT YOU SAID.
JESSE, COME ON.
COME ON! I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT, MAN.
ANY LUCK YET? HARRISON'S BEEN OPERATING OUT OF A DOZEN FRONTS OVER THE LAST SIX MONTHS.
GOOD.
I'VE STILL GOT THE TRACE FROM HIS CELL PHONE CALL.
ONE OF THOSE HITS HAS GOT TO BE REAL.
AND SO WE SUPERIMPOSE THE LOCATIONS OF HARRISON'S FRONT COMPANIES.
PERFECT GOT HIM.
RANE INDUSTRIES, 14TH STREET.
IT'S ONLY A LITTLE FURTHER.
IT'S NOT EASY, BRO.
CAN'T GIVE UP.
THINK ABOUT ALL THE PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE.
ALL THE PEOPLE THAT YOU'VE HELPED.
YOU CAN'T LEAVE THEM.
I'M NOT COMING WITH YOU.
WHAT? WHY? WE'RE DIFFERENT, JESS.
YOU KNOW, WHEN I WAS A KID, THE ONLY THING I EVER THOUGHT ABOUT WAS TAKING CARE OF MY BROTHER.
EVERYTHING I DID FOR ECKHART, ADAM, THE DOMINION, WAS ALL ABOUT SAVING LEO - AND I SCREWED IT UP! LOOK, WHEN I FIRST CAME HERE, I WAS MESSED UP, TOO.
THE LAST THING I THOUGHT I WANTED WAS JOIN A BUNCH OF FREAKS IN A CAVE BUT LEXA, ONCE I WAS IN, I FOUND SOMETHING THAT I COULD NEVER FIND ON THE OUTSIDE.
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, I FIT IN.
YOU'RE A PART OF THAT, NOW.
AGH Harrison: TIME IS ALMOST UP.
HAVE YOU GOT HER? YEAH.
PUT HER ON.
WELL, IT'LL BE A MINUTE.
DON'T PLAY ME .
I WILL DETONATE THE BULLET.
BRENNAN! I CAN'T REACH THE BULLET! IT'S USING JESSE'S ABILITY TO PHASE ITSELF.
I CAN'T TOUCH IT! YOU COULD PULL OUT THE BULLET IF IT WAS SOLID, RIGHT? YES, BUT I ALREADY TOLD YOU THAT IT JESSE! YOU GOTTA CONCENTRATE! YOU GOTTA MASS OUT THE BULLET SO THE DOCTOR CAN GET A GRIP ON IT.
CAN YOU DO THAT? I CAN'T.
IT'S OUR ONLY CHANCE TO KEEP US BOTH ALIVE.
COME ON, MAN.
I KNOW YOU GOT IT IN YOU.
YOU KNOW YOU'VE GOT IT IN YOU.
FIGHT IT, JESS! MASS OUT THE BULLET! AGH! COME ON, ONLY A LITTLE BIT FURTHER! COME ON, I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT, MAN! NO MORE STALLING.
YOU HEARD THE MAN.
YOU DON'T HAVE HER.
YOU NEVER HAD HER.
BYE BYE, JESSE.
BRENNAN, IT'S GONNA BLOW!! IT'S ALL RIGHT, GUYS.
I GOT THE BULLET IN THE CONTAINER IN TIME.
JESSE'S ALIVE.
LUCKY YOU.
WHERE IS SHE? WHERE'S LAURA? SHE DIED.
NO.
NO, NO.
THROUGH ALL THE TREACHERY AND DOUBLE-DEALING AT THE G.
S.
A.
, SHE WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO REMAINED LOYAL - LOYAL TO ME! SHE CAN'T BE DEAD! OH, YOU CARED ABOUT HER? CARED? I LOVED HER.
THAT'S TOO BAD-- LOVE HURTS.
GUYS THANK YOU.
I WOULDN'T BE HERE WITHOUT YOU.
NAH, IT WAS NO BIG DEAL.
YEAH YOU'RE THE REASON I WANTED TO LIVE.
THAT IS A BIG DEAL.
WHAT? SO DID YOU HAVE ANY OTHER NEAR-DEATH REVELATIONS? WELL, I DID.
SEE, UH, YOU PUT US THROUGH THAT AGAIN I'LL KILL YOU MYSELF.
BRENNAN WHAT'S UP? YOU RISKED YOUR LIFE FOR ME.
YOU TOOK A BULLET FOR ME.
YEAH, BUT I DIDN'T KNOW IT WOULD HURT.
OH, MAN, YOU'RE A BIG WUSS.
I'M SURE YOU WOULD HAVE DONE IT ANYWAY.
ANY TIME.
YEAH, I KNOW.
OH UH UH
