Travelers (2016) s02e08 Episode Script
Traveler 0027
1 Previously, on Travelers [MACLAREN.]
: Where's the quantum frame? When you reset the Director, we lost the ability to access the 21st.
[FORBES.]
: We should be working together! I don't think so.
The Director had its chance! [SCREAMS.]
The Director's back up and running.
How many Faction are still here? It's impossible to know how many were sent into the quantum frame.
Historically, Grace Day died today.
You jumped into the 21st illegally.
You took a host that wasn't meant for you.
I had evidence that an attack on the Director was imminent! I had no choice but to act! When you reset me, you left out some things.
What'd you leave out, Grace? Targeting far left.
[.]
[PHILIP.]
: T.
E.
L.
L.
established.
Stand by.
Target two.
T.
E.
L.
L.
established.
[.]
Traveler incoming on target one.
[.]
[MACLAREN.]
: Take him out.
[SHOT WHIZZES.]
[.]
[MARCY.]
: Yeah, he's dead.
We needed three to make it even.
- He was gonna kill both of you.
- Stay calm.
Stick to the plan.
I'll be right behind you.
[.]
[DOOR OPENS.]
What are you doing? What do you mean? It's lunchtime.
You're supposed to be on sentry duty.
Oh, Jasper's still out there.
It's fine.
No, it's not fine.
There could be Travelers out there.
They're in here now.
- Don't.
- Hands in the air.
[.]
Your protocols won't let you take a life.
Protocol three's been suspended for members of the Faction.
I wouldn't risk it.
[CARLY.]
: Weapons down, hands up.
Where's the quantum frame? Not here.
Secure them.
What're you going to do with us? That'll be up to the Director.
So death by overwrite.
You mean like you did to your hosts? Our plan might have saved the future.
You people are pathetic.
Meaning we're capable of pity, sympathy, or compassion for others? I've really been enjoying English class this year.
Yeah.
I can see that.
Let's get moving.
Move.
Stay still.
Okay, let's see what we can pull from this.
You won't find anything.
[MACLAREN.]
: I don't know.
My people are pretty good at this.
Thanks, boss.
- Be good at this.
- Mm-hmm.
We can always try torture.
No, we couldn't.
[MACLAREN.]
: They've been in hiding so long, I doubt they know where the frame is anyway.
Even if we knew, we wouldn't tell you.
So someone point a camera this way and end this.
I'm good with that.
The Director has plans for them.
This is the first I'm hearing about it.
Because you are a part of those plans.
A hearing has been ordered.
Your presence, along with 3569 and 0115, is required.
Where? You'll receive the coordinates tomorrow.
[.]
[POP.]
To selling our house.
To selling our house over asking.
Yay! We're officially homeless.
Well, I am.
Not till you finish packing.
[CLINK.]
I don't know how you can drink that stuff.
Because I'm not allowed to drink that stuff and the calcium is good for the development of bones.
You haven't touched the almond milk I bought.
Grant, if there was ever a time you were gonna lose this vegan battle with me, it's when I am pregnant.
Fair.
You know, I was thinking, we should put some of the house money into a trust fund, for college tuition.
College? That's years from now.
You need to learn to think of the future.
Oh, I've uh, I have given that some thought.
And I think I'm gonna buy a boat with my half.
Given your history with the water, I'd better take a life-insurance policy out on you instead.
Ow.
Break one arm one time [MACLAREN SIGHS.]
Were you planning on going back to the house tonight? It's early.
Are you kicking me out already? No.
I'm asking you to stay.
[.]
You haven't changed position since I left last night.
Oh.
No, I guess I haven't.
Find anything on their coms? They've been all over the place.
[HITS KEY.]
This data is pretty much useless.
[CARLY.]
: What about these points? Looks like they frequented these locations multiple times.
Maybe the frame's there.
Where the frame might have been, not where it is now.
Well, there's gotta be CCTV or traffic cams in those areas.
Maybe you can pull the footage, see if any of them picked anything up.
If the Faction left anything on those cameras and hey, I wouldn't then the Director would've already found it by now.
Mmph.
[GRUMBLING SIGH.]
Something's bothering you.
Timeline has changed a lot.
My knowledge of the future is becoming obsolete.
It's going to be hard to stay relevant.
You're more than just the team's encyclopedia, Philip.
Who else am I gonna call when I can't get Jeffrey's cartoons to play on my phone? So flattering.
Or make me music playlists.
Teach me about turtles.
The self-worth is just coursing through my veins.
You're like the rest of us now.
Just a human being.
And that's okay.
I gotta go to work, but I'll com in.
Have a nice day.
Go for a walk! [.]
[BOTH LAUGHING.]
Oh! My God.
I guess we were making up for lost time.
Lost time? I don't even know what day it is.
[LAUGHS.]
I know.
I'm gonna be in court all day, so I'll be hard to reach.
But I'll see you tonight? [SETS CUP DOWN.]
[.]
How's that for an answer? Grant? I love you.
I love you, too.
[.]
[MONOTONOUSLY.]
: 3468.
Coordinates are as follows 47.
6050 degrees North, by 122.
3344 degrees West.
[GIRL, NORMAL VOICE.]
: Why am I in the hallway? Is it time for school? Not yet.
Are you our new neighbor? I guess I am.
Have a nice day, neighbor.
[.]
What are you doing here? What are you doing here? He asked first.
A messenger gave me the coordinates for a hearing.
Scared me half to death.
[.]
[HUSHED.]
: Maybe it's their trial.
Shouldn't take long then.
[SNIP.]
[SNIP.]
All rise for the arrival of the Tribunal Committee.
[.]
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING BEGINS.]
[SOLDIERS SCREAMING.]
[SCREAMING CONTINUES.]
[RINGING ABATES.]
[.]
I'm Traveler 009.
You may refer to me as the Speaker.
I'm joined by Travelers 0017 and 0029.
They're programmers.
What the hell are all of you doing here? Who's maintaining the Director? We came to the 21st as instructed by the Director.
Unlike yourself.
So that's what this is about? 0027 you are charged with conspiracy against the Director and the high crime of interrupting the Grand Plan.
[.]
[MUSIC PLAYING.]
I liked that one.
Can you add it to my playlist? And just like that, I am reduced to being Carly's DJ.
[CHUCKLES.]
Something upbeat, please.
Any luck with the footage? They wiped everything, just like we thought.
I'm running serial numbers of the weapons they were carrying.
Grasping at straws here.
They're bound to slip up, and when they do, we'll be ready for 'em.
Dropping by Ops after work? No, I gotta pick up Jeffrey from the sitter, get some groceries [SIGHS.]
bring my van to the mechanic.
I've been having trouble starting it in the mornings.
Maybe I could be a mechanic.
I do live in a garage.
[DRY CHUCKLE.]
Stop it.
You are a valuable member of the team and a great DJ.
[CHUCKLES.]
Next song, please.
[KEYS CLACKING.]
[PROGRAMMER 0017.]
: 3468, please take the stand.
[.]
Recount to us how you first made contact with 0027.
I met Grace several months ago, when my team was given a mission to greet Traveler 0014, Ellis.
Grace arrived at the same time and said her mission was to help Marcy.
[PROGRAMMER 0017.]
: But that was a lie, wasn't it? No, it wasn't.
I saved her life.
The defendant will refrain from interjection.
If you refrain from leading questions! Go ahead.
He interrupted you.
Later, we learned she was actually here to reset the Director by taking advantage of Marcy's new T.
E.
L.
L.
And you were unaware of this secondary objective? She eventually told us.
Prior to that, we believed that she was only here to save Marcy.
Which I did.
And for which I am deeply grateful.
You're welcome.
[PROGRAMMER 0017.]
: At any point, did you suspect that she was a member of the Faction? [MACLAREN.]
: In the future we left, there was no Faction.
Protocol two has kept us in the dark.
We had no idea.
[PROGRAMMER 0017.]
: And who wrote protocol two? Oh, come on! You know I did.
0027, please.
Teams in the 21st shouldn't be made aware of every change in the future because completion rates of our missions would drop exponentially.
You have been asked by the tribunal not to interject.
Operatives would be paralyzed with the fear of how their actions could negatively affect the people they left behind.
- Enough! - I agree! If I hadn't reset the Director, the Faction would have corrupted it, which means the Faction would have control of the past.
What I did was the only way to save Marcy and the Director.
It was the Director who ordered this hearing, not any one of us.
Why? It knows what really happened.
It knows what I sacrificed.
This This makes no sense.
And yet here we are.
We will take a brief recess to allow that fact to sink in.
[.]
Blair, hi, it's David.
I Hi! You're still at home.
Yeah, I was just calling to leave a message to wish you a happy birthday, so, uh, happy birthday.
Yeah.
Anyhoo, that's the one and only reason I was calling, so have a great A rave? [LAUGHS.]
Oh.
No.
No, no, I don't, um I don't do raves.
It's just not my Tell you what, I'll say maybe.
And, uh Yeah.
I'll try.
Yeah, I'll-I'll try to maybe see you later.
Okay.
Yeah, bye.
0115 were you responsible for interrupting Grace Day's original T.
E.
L.
L.
? I was.
Whose orders were you acting on? No one's.
Then why'd you do it? I didn't want her to die.
That simple.
As a Traveler, you don't just inherit the host body, you inherit the lives they've touched family, friends Grace Day was merely a guidance counselor at your host's high school.
That doesn't do her justice.
See, my host was a bully.
Cruel.
She tried to help him anyway.
She was there for him.
For me.
[SPEAKER.]
: And historically, she was supposed to die.
[TREVOR.]
: I rationalized that one person wouldn't matter to the Grand Plan, but I was lying to myself.
I broke protocol because she did matter to me and I'm willing to accept the consequences.
[SPEAKER.]
: Because of your actions, locked out all transfers to the 21st until she could send herself into the host Grace Day, halting the Traveler program for four hours.
I couldn't just go into anyone.
Dozens of missions were canceled.
A Traveler was supposed to arrive in Germany and prevent an impending train derailment.
All the passengers died.
A team meant to arrive in England and stop a terrorist attack was unable to transit.
[TREVOR.]
: I assumed the Director would choose a new host for the next scheduled Traveler.
The Grand Plan is fluid.
It's constantly shifting.
The Director is constantly analyzing a myriad of outcomes and course-correcting to the fraction of a second.
Are you trying to school me in the matrix of algorithms the Director uses to oversee the Traveler program? [SPEAKER.]
: For the last time, 0027.
[TREVOR.]
: If the crime is disruption of the Grand Plan, then I'm the one who allowed that to happen.
I'm the one that should be punished.
[SPEAKER.]
: The Director will no doubt take it into account.
You may step down.
[.]
2103, will you please take the stand? Oh, seriously? That guy hates me.
[.]
Philip, I have a situation.
Hey, what's the good news? Definitely not my paycheck.
How the hell do they expect people to live on this? And the capitalist-socialist debate strikes again.
Well, this isn't enough for me to cover my expenses this week.
Can you top me up? [PHILIP.]
: Sure, let me see what I can move around for you.
This can't be right.
What? What is it? Something happened to the market this morning when I was out for a walk.
Our investments are down.
I'm scared to tell you how much.
How did that happen? Most of our higher-risk investments just crashed and burned.
We're in serious financial trouble.
This was a meeting Ken had been preparing for a month.
I mean, he had he had note cards and everything.
And, uh [BUZZING.]
Even had his hair slicked back, which is a clear sign that, you know, it's important.
[PHONE BUZZING.]
You gonna get that? Uh, no.
No, I'm not.
Anyway, ahem.
So we're all sitting there, and he stands up to do his presentation, and his fly, it's wide open.
Oh, no.
Was his penis exposed? Uh, no no, I mean, that would that would be But, anyway.
There's a window in his office, and I think, midway through, he must have caught his reflection [STIFLING LAUGHTER.]
: Because he just he just knew, and there was nothing he could do about it, but you could see him debate it in his head, like "Do I do up my fly while I'm still talking?" [LAUGHS.]
Have I met Ken? That's the funny thing you actually have.
You've actually asked that question before.
Oh.
This looks good.
[RAVE ELECTRONICA BLASTING.]
Blair! You're not allowed to do this on your birthday.
He's so not worth it.
Hold onto me! [.]
[POPPING.]
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING BEGINS.]
[PULSE ZAPS.]
[RINGING AND SCREAMING.]
[RINGING STOPS.]
[.]
What's happening? [.]
- [BUZZING.]
- But, then, why did, um why did Ken change his mind? I don't know.
I just, I came in ready to pack up all my things, and he told me I still had a job.
It's a mystery.
Do you want some more wine? Um, maybe in a minute.
I'm just gonna use the bathroom.
Excuse me.
[TEXTS DINGING.]
[BLAIR.]
: David, please! Help me! Please, I need your help! [SCREAMS.]
I'm locked in a stall! They're trying to come in.
Please! Please, help me! [SCREAMING.]
[CLICK.]
Uh um.
[.]
Where are you going? Uh Here, listen to this David, please! Help me! Please, I need your help! - [BLAIR SCREAMS.]
- Wait! I'm coming with you.
Here.
And by a nose, "Saladin's Vigil" crosses the finish line.
[ANNOUNCER.]
: And by a nose, "Nemesis Star" crosses the finish line! That was down to the wire.
"Outbreak Prime" is well ahead in the lead to win first place.
[ANNOUNCER.]
: "Outbreak Prime" is well ahead but, now, pulling up from the middle of the pack is "Gjallahorn"! Shit.
[MARCY.]
: So what is a rave? [DAVID.]
: An illegal dance party with loud music, drugs, alcohol.
Not that I've ever been to one.
I don't dance so much as I rhythmically stand.
Wait if there's supposed to be loud music, shouldn't we be hearing it by now? Uh yeah.
What, you just carry that around? Yep.
[.]
[DAVID.]
: Blair? Hey.
What happened? Hey? [MARCY.]
: She's overdosing.
We need to get her to a hospital and administer You just carry that around? A lot of my clients have addiction problems.
Hey [BLAIR, WEAKLY.]
: David? What happened? We were in the bathroom People started screaming.
When I came out, they all turned on me.
Give me your phone.
[DAVID.]
: Okay, we're gonna get you to a hospital, and you're gonna be okay, all right? [.]
Hey I'm at a building at the corner of 50th and Baker.
I don't know how they moved it so fast, but the frame was here less than an hour ago.
Who're you talking to? Pull up the camera feeds.
I'll be right over.
Camera feeds? You need to get her to a hospital.
I need to go.
Okay.
Marcy! [OPERATOR.]
: 9-1-1.
What's your emergency? They wiped all the footage before they left again, but we know for certain that the frame was there.
[MACLAREN.]
: Well, thank God for the selfie generation.
Can you zoom in there? [MARCY.]
: Faction took everyone at the rave except three women who were apparently in the bathroom.
We found them overdosed, probably a way of eliminating them as witnesses.
And they survived? David and I managed to save one of them, but she didn't see anything.
[MACLAREN.]
: But it's a safe bet everyone else in the photo's a Faction.
It makes sense, but I don't know how you prove it.
Locate them, if you can.
We have to get back to the hearing marathon.
How's that going? Can you say? Not looking good for Grace.
[PROGRAMMER 0029.]
: Marcy how and why did 0027 "repackage" your consciousness? Well, obviously, I don't actually remember, but from what I was briefed on, she showed me a code.
Something that Ellis created a backdoor hack, which, during the repackaging process, somehow managed to reset the Director.
Admittedly, a brilliant piece of work.
Thank you.
And how has that worked out for you, Marcy, this "reset" of your consciousness? Uh, how is this relevant? I restored her.
Do you feel restored, Marcy? I no longer have seizures.
But do you feel as you did before? No.
But that's partly because I have no memory of my time spent in the 21st prior.
There are missing pieces, then? Yes.
[PROGRAMMER 0029.]
: Marcy I've studied your M.
R.
I.
s.
She had to have taken out more than just a few months of memories.
[.]
What else did you take out? I told you.
Redundancies, useless things.
Such as what? Empathy? Emotions you lack? Oh, shut up, 29.
You're practically a sociopath yourself.
How could you do that to me? You would have died! Yeah, but that would've been my choice to make.
You used me.
Yes, I did! I prevented your suicide.
Life is precious, and so are skilled operatives in the field.
I was just a means to an end.
Marcy, you're still you.
I swear to you.
I didn't take your soul.
How would you even know? [.]
Carly, I think I found one of the people in the picture.
[KEYS CLACKING.]
Forget the first three.
What do you think of four and five? Not a big fan of "Mason.
" But it's so masculine.
Like a "stone mason.
" It's also a jar you keep pickles in.
What about your father's name? Oh, Wilbur's the pig in Charlotte's Web.
And a Wright brother.
Watch out.
I might be contagious.
I've built up an immunity.
How're you feeling? Didn't you hear? I don't have feelings.
Yeah, you do.
I got you these.
What are they? Try one.
They're French.
[DEEP SIGH.]
At least if they throw the book at me, I can say I've had 21st-century French cuisine.
[CHUCKLES.]
Why are you being nice to me? Do you know something? No.
No, it's because we wouldn't even be here if you hadn't reset the Director.
You gotta understand that they'll come to the same conclusion.
Trust the judgment of those mouth-breathers? Please.
- [PHONE BUZZING.]
- Oh.
[BUZZING.]
You need to take that? Ah, it can wait.
Besides, I gotta do this.
Do what? Bring it in, Grace! You need this.
I don't! Can we not Oh, it's happening.
Come on, there you go.
Okay.
Thanks.
You can let go now.
Wasn't so bad, was it? I do feel a slight release of endorphins.
You see? [MUNCHING.]
Do you have a regular sex partner? [.]
You can't hate every one I come up with.
[MACLAREN.]
: Well, we don't even know if we're going to have a boy or girl! You think I'm getting too excited.
You know what? You're right.
N-No.
No, I love to hear the excitement in your voice when you're talking about new life.
Kat, I gotta get back into court.
Just Just narrow it down to the top 100 or so, and we'll go through it tonight, okay? Okay.
[SPEAKER.]
: 0027, you have heard the charges against you.
What do you have to say in your defense? I've given it a great deal of thought, run the events over and over in my mind a thousand times, and to be honest You should all be thanking me.
Like my very dear friend just pointed out [HUSHED.]
: Uh-oh.
If I hadn't have reset the Director, none of you would be here right now.
The Director would be gone, the Faction would have won, and billions of people would be dead from a horrible plague, so You're welcome! 0027 the members of the Tribunal will now deliberate.
We will announce your final verdict tomorrow.
We are adjourned.
[.]
[KNOCKING.]
May I help you? Stacey Collins, we have a few questions.
How do you know my name? You were at a rave last night.
Do you recognize this? Where's the quantum frame? You're standing right beside it in the picture.
We know you're Faction.
[LAUGHS.]
What are you talking about? We know you just arrived.
Maybe if you cooperate Who are you people? Get away from me.
I'm calling the police.
[DOOR BANGS.]
Whoa! Carly.
She's Faction.
How do we prove it? Who do we prove it to? This is what happens when you improvise.
We can't just walk away.
That's exactly what we have to do.
But maybe we can follow her or something.
[SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE.]
Jesus! She actually called the cops! Take care of yourself, okay? I'll check in with you tomorrow.
Okay? Bye.
Yes, bye.
B Bye-b Bye-bye.
[BEEPS PHONE OFF.]
[TAKES A DEEP BREATH.]
You do know Chinese food is my kryptonite.
Oh, I just I know you've been going back and forth to the hospital all day, so I wanted to bring you some dinner.
Yeah! Thank you.
I am starving.
How's Blair doing? Right.
Well, we got there just in time.
It was a lethal dose of fentanyl.
On her birthday.
So they're gonna keep her for the next couple days.
Mm.
You're looking at me funny.
What? I'm just trying to figure something out.
[.]
I'm sorry.
I wasn't 100% finished chewing.
Marcy, stop.
Why? What is it? Let's, um let's not, okay? You don't want to.
Oh, no, I do.
I mean I really but Not like this.
Not Not like an experiment to see how it makes you feel.
Because I-I know I know how it made me feel when we made love.
And it's as close as you can get to another person for 10 minutes.
I mean, an hour.
I want to feel that.
But you can't make yourself feel something.
I mean, you either do or you you don't, and I want you to want to.
I know that sounds like a bad song title from the '80s, but Should I just go? No! No, stay.
Share this with me, and we'll make some tea and-and we'll talk, like we do on Tuesdays.
What should we talk about? [THEY LAUGH.]
With you, Marcy, I could talk about anything.
[.]
[SPEAKER.]
: 0027, you've been charged with conspiracy against the Director and interruption of the Grand Plan.
You took a host that wasn't intended for you, and you halted the Traveler program for You've already said all that! Cut to the chase.
You've repeatedly stated that your actions reset the Director and freed it from corruption.
Because they did.
[0029.]
: Then who corrupted the Director in the first place? The most powerful A.
I.
in history, orders of magnitude more powerful than the human brain? Who would have that capability? Obviously, a quantum programmer of the highest caliber.
So only the best among us.
Yes.
And who might that be? - [HUSHED.]
: Don't say it.
- Obviously me! But I didn't corrupt the Director! I was the one waving a red flag while you three were lining up at the yeast vats, filling your bellies! Traveler 0027, your peers have reached a unanimous verdict.
We find you guilty.
[FRUSTRATED SIGH.]
What? Escort her to the sentencing room.
Wait! W-W-W-Wait.
Wait, wait.
No, no, no, no, no! No, no, no, no! MacLaren, do something! I'm sorry, Grace.
Trevor, don't let them do this! You can't help her, Trev! - But she's innocent! - Trevor! Help me! She doesn't deserve this! She didn't do much to help her case.
It's in the hands of the Director now.
[.]
[.]
Be seated.
Your sentencing will begin shortly.
[.]
What do you think will happen to her? If the Director agrees with the Tribunal, she'll probably be overwritten.
Can I give you a ride home? Oh, it's not that far.
I think I'll walk.
I need to clear my head.
You okay? I'm fine.
[.]
Marcy? May I speak with you? Yes, of course, Programmer.
You may never get an apology from 0027, but as a programmer, I want you to know how sorry I am for what happened to you.
Thank you, but that's not necessary.
Well, I think it is.
What 0027 did to you was criminal.
That sense of emptiness that you must feel, of not being whole It's offensive to me that someone would do that to you for their own agenda.
Well, I guess she'll face the consequences.
But you shouldn't have to.
I think I can offer you the missing pieces that you've been looking for.
This is my field of expertise.
I don't understand.
My new team has been doing research on preserving host memory.
In your case, that would be your first iteration.
I thought those memories were lost forever.
Perhaps not all.
Perhaps even the most powerful memories, the most defining are still there, and I can get them back for you.
When? Well, as soon as you like.
Of course, if you need time to think about it.
No, there's nothing to think about.
Uh [.]
Unfortunate, what must happen to Grace.
Is it? In that it's a waste of intellect.
Returning to OPS now.
Bringing Marcy with me.
Half-hour out.
I'll be ready.
[.]
[SOBBING.]
Are you here? I am here, 0027.
[TEARFULLY.]
: Call me Grace.
I didn't betray you.
I would never betray you.
You, of anyone, should know that.
[WEAKLY.]
: You are one of four candidates, although the probability of guilt is negligible.
Then why are you going to overwrite me? Be patient.
I have not yet determined who amongst you is the traitor.
No No! Who did this? I don't know.
Was this your team? [.]
[KEYS CLACKING.]
Well, the frame is powered, it can still function.
I can still help you, Marcy.
We both know you're not trying to help me.
[.]
You won't shoot.
You want Ellis's backdoor code to take over the Director, and you think it's still inside my head.
Listen to me, Marcy.
The future is at stake.
[MACLAREN.]
: Drop your weapon! [MARCY GRUNTING.]
What the hell happened? [MARCY.]
: Honestly? I don't even think that he knows.
[PANTING.]
[TRANSMISSION RESUMES.]
The situation is now resolved.
0029 will be charged with the crime of Treason and sentenced immediately.
You used my trial as an excuse to get everyone here in the 21st, to flush the traitor out? The frame has also been neutralized.
[WHEEZING.]
You humiliated me.
I sacrificed everything for you, I-I left everything I knew behind, just to save you.
I'm sorry.
I hoped you would understand it was necessary.
[WHEEZING.]
You're still gonna punish me, aren't you? I know I took the life of this host after the fact, I know I interrupted the Grand Plan.
Ellis is dead because of me.
But I can never go back.
Isn't that punishment enough? More than enough I owe you my life.
Thank you for saving me, Grace.
I shall miss you.
[.]
[MACLAREN.]
: Traveler 0029, you have been charged with the crime of treason.
You're on the wrong side of history, MacLaren.
And you have been found guilty.
And the Director will sentence you now.
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING BEGINS.]
[GROANING INTENSELY.]
[CRYING OUT IN AGONY.]
Ahh! [RINGING CEASES.]
Welcome to the 21st.
Boss? Make every fragment of it unrecognizable.
It's over then? I'm not so sure.
Who killed all of them? [.]
[.]
: Where's the quantum frame? When you reset the Director, we lost the ability to access the 21st.
[FORBES.]
: We should be working together! I don't think so.
The Director had its chance! [SCREAMS.]
The Director's back up and running.
How many Faction are still here? It's impossible to know how many were sent into the quantum frame.
Historically, Grace Day died today.
You jumped into the 21st illegally.
You took a host that wasn't meant for you.
I had evidence that an attack on the Director was imminent! I had no choice but to act! When you reset me, you left out some things.
What'd you leave out, Grace? Targeting far left.
[.]
[PHILIP.]
: T.
E.
L.
L.
established.
Stand by.
Target two.
T.
E.
L.
L.
established.
[.]
Traveler incoming on target one.
[.]
[MACLAREN.]
: Take him out.
[SHOT WHIZZES.]
[.]
[MARCY.]
: Yeah, he's dead.
We needed three to make it even.
- He was gonna kill both of you.
- Stay calm.
Stick to the plan.
I'll be right behind you.
[.]
[DOOR OPENS.]
What are you doing? What do you mean? It's lunchtime.
You're supposed to be on sentry duty.
Oh, Jasper's still out there.
It's fine.
No, it's not fine.
There could be Travelers out there.
They're in here now.
- Don't.
- Hands in the air.
[.]
Your protocols won't let you take a life.
Protocol three's been suspended for members of the Faction.
I wouldn't risk it.
[CARLY.]
: Weapons down, hands up.
Where's the quantum frame? Not here.
Secure them.
What're you going to do with us? That'll be up to the Director.
So death by overwrite.
You mean like you did to your hosts? Our plan might have saved the future.
You people are pathetic.
Meaning we're capable of pity, sympathy, or compassion for others? I've really been enjoying English class this year.
Yeah.
I can see that.
Let's get moving.
Move.
Stay still.
Okay, let's see what we can pull from this.
You won't find anything.
[MACLAREN.]
: I don't know.
My people are pretty good at this.
Thanks, boss.
- Be good at this.
- Mm-hmm.
We can always try torture.
No, we couldn't.
[MACLAREN.]
: They've been in hiding so long, I doubt they know where the frame is anyway.
Even if we knew, we wouldn't tell you.
So someone point a camera this way and end this.
I'm good with that.
The Director has plans for them.
This is the first I'm hearing about it.
Because you are a part of those plans.
A hearing has been ordered.
Your presence, along with 3569 and 0115, is required.
Where? You'll receive the coordinates tomorrow.
[.]
[POP.]
To selling our house.
To selling our house over asking.
Yay! We're officially homeless.
Well, I am.
Not till you finish packing.
[CLINK.]
I don't know how you can drink that stuff.
Because I'm not allowed to drink that stuff and the calcium is good for the development of bones.
You haven't touched the almond milk I bought.
Grant, if there was ever a time you were gonna lose this vegan battle with me, it's when I am pregnant.
Fair.
You know, I was thinking, we should put some of the house money into a trust fund, for college tuition.
College? That's years from now.
You need to learn to think of the future.
Oh, I've uh, I have given that some thought.
And I think I'm gonna buy a boat with my half.
Given your history with the water, I'd better take a life-insurance policy out on you instead.
Ow.
Break one arm one time [MACLAREN SIGHS.]
Were you planning on going back to the house tonight? It's early.
Are you kicking me out already? No.
I'm asking you to stay.
[.]
You haven't changed position since I left last night.
Oh.
No, I guess I haven't.
Find anything on their coms? They've been all over the place.
[HITS KEY.]
This data is pretty much useless.
[CARLY.]
: What about these points? Looks like they frequented these locations multiple times.
Maybe the frame's there.
Where the frame might have been, not where it is now.
Well, there's gotta be CCTV or traffic cams in those areas.
Maybe you can pull the footage, see if any of them picked anything up.
If the Faction left anything on those cameras and hey, I wouldn't then the Director would've already found it by now.
Mmph.
[GRUMBLING SIGH.]
Something's bothering you.
Timeline has changed a lot.
My knowledge of the future is becoming obsolete.
It's going to be hard to stay relevant.
You're more than just the team's encyclopedia, Philip.
Who else am I gonna call when I can't get Jeffrey's cartoons to play on my phone? So flattering.
Or make me music playlists.
Teach me about turtles.
The self-worth is just coursing through my veins.
You're like the rest of us now.
Just a human being.
And that's okay.
I gotta go to work, but I'll com in.
Have a nice day.
Go for a walk! [.]
[BOTH LAUGHING.]
Oh! My God.
I guess we were making up for lost time.
Lost time? I don't even know what day it is.
[LAUGHS.]
I know.
I'm gonna be in court all day, so I'll be hard to reach.
But I'll see you tonight? [SETS CUP DOWN.]
[.]
How's that for an answer? Grant? I love you.
I love you, too.
[.]
[MONOTONOUSLY.]
: 3468.
Coordinates are as follows 47.
6050 degrees North, by 122.
3344 degrees West.
[GIRL, NORMAL VOICE.]
: Why am I in the hallway? Is it time for school? Not yet.
Are you our new neighbor? I guess I am.
Have a nice day, neighbor.
[.]
What are you doing here? What are you doing here? He asked first.
A messenger gave me the coordinates for a hearing.
Scared me half to death.
[.]
[HUSHED.]
: Maybe it's their trial.
Shouldn't take long then.
[SNIP.]
[SNIP.]
All rise for the arrival of the Tribunal Committee.
[.]
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING BEGINS.]
[SOLDIERS SCREAMING.]
[SCREAMING CONTINUES.]
[RINGING ABATES.]
[.]
I'm Traveler 009.
You may refer to me as the Speaker.
I'm joined by Travelers 0017 and 0029.
They're programmers.
What the hell are all of you doing here? Who's maintaining the Director? We came to the 21st as instructed by the Director.
Unlike yourself.
So that's what this is about? 0027 you are charged with conspiracy against the Director and the high crime of interrupting the Grand Plan.
[.]
[MUSIC PLAYING.]
I liked that one.
Can you add it to my playlist? And just like that, I am reduced to being Carly's DJ.
[CHUCKLES.]
Something upbeat, please.
Any luck with the footage? They wiped everything, just like we thought.
I'm running serial numbers of the weapons they were carrying.
Grasping at straws here.
They're bound to slip up, and when they do, we'll be ready for 'em.
Dropping by Ops after work? No, I gotta pick up Jeffrey from the sitter, get some groceries [SIGHS.]
bring my van to the mechanic.
I've been having trouble starting it in the mornings.
Maybe I could be a mechanic.
I do live in a garage.
[DRY CHUCKLE.]
Stop it.
You are a valuable member of the team and a great DJ.
[CHUCKLES.]
Next song, please.
[KEYS CLACKING.]
[PROGRAMMER 0017.]
: 3468, please take the stand.
[.]
Recount to us how you first made contact with 0027.
I met Grace several months ago, when my team was given a mission to greet Traveler 0014, Ellis.
Grace arrived at the same time and said her mission was to help Marcy.
[PROGRAMMER 0017.]
: But that was a lie, wasn't it? No, it wasn't.
I saved her life.
The defendant will refrain from interjection.
If you refrain from leading questions! Go ahead.
He interrupted you.
Later, we learned she was actually here to reset the Director by taking advantage of Marcy's new T.
E.
L.
L.
And you were unaware of this secondary objective? She eventually told us.
Prior to that, we believed that she was only here to save Marcy.
Which I did.
And for which I am deeply grateful.
You're welcome.
[PROGRAMMER 0017.]
: At any point, did you suspect that she was a member of the Faction? [MACLAREN.]
: In the future we left, there was no Faction.
Protocol two has kept us in the dark.
We had no idea.
[PROGRAMMER 0017.]
: And who wrote protocol two? Oh, come on! You know I did.
0027, please.
Teams in the 21st shouldn't be made aware of every change in the future because completion rates of our missions would drop exponentially.
You have been asked by the tribunal not to interject.
Operatives would be paralyzed with the fear of how their actions could negatively affect the people they left behind.
- Enough! - I agree! If I hadn't reset the Director, the Faction would have corrupted it, which means the Faction would have control of the past.
What I did was the only way to save Marcy and the Director.
It was the Director who ordered this hearing, not any one of us.
Why? It knows what really happened.
It knows what I sacrificed.
This This makes no sense.
And yet here we are.
We will take a brief recess to allow that fact to sink in.
[.]
Blair, hi, it's David.
I Hi! You're still at home.
Yeah, I was just calling to leave a message to wish you a happy birthday, so, uh, happy birthday.
Yeah.
Anyhoo, that's the one and only reason I was calling, so have a great A rave? [LAUGHS.]
Oh.
No.
No, no, I don't, um I don't do raves.
It's just not my Tell you what, I'll say maybe.
And, uh Yeah.
I'll try.
Yeah, I'll-I'll try to maybe see you later.
Okay.
Yeah, bye.
0115 were you responsible for interrupting Grace Day's original T.
E.
L.
L.
? I was.
Whose orders were you acting on? No one's.
Then why'd you do it? I didn't want her to die.
That simple.
As a Traveler, you don't just inherit the host body, you inherit the lives they've touched family, friends Grace Day was merely a guidance counselor at your host's high school.
That doesn't do her justice.
See, my host was a bully.
Cruel.
She tried to help him anyway.
She was there for him.
For me.
[SPEAKER.]
: And historically, she was supposed to die.
[TREVOR.]
: I rationalized that one person wouldn't matter to the Grand Plan, but I was lying to myself.
I broke protocol because she did matter to me and I'm willing to accept the consequences.
[SPEAKER.]
: Because of your actions, locked out all transfers to the 21st until she could send herself into the host Grace Day, halting the Traveler program for four hours.
I couldn't just go into anyone.
Dozens of missions were canceled.
A Traveler was supposed to arrive in Germany and prevent an impending train derailment.
All the passengers died.
A team meant to arrive in England and stop a terrorist attack was unable to transit.
[TREVOR.]
: I assumed the Director would choose a new host for the next scheduled Traveler.
The Grand Plan is fluid.
It's constantly shifting.
The Director is constantly analyzing a myriad of outcomes and course-correcting to the fraction of a second.
Are you trying to school me in the matrix of algorithms the Director uses to oversee the Traveler program? [SPEAKER.]
: For the last time, 0027.
[TREVOR.]
: If the crime is disruption of the Grand Plan, then I'm the one who allowed that to happen.
I'm the one that should be punished.
[SPEAKER.]
: The Director will no doubt take it into account.
You may step down.
[.]
2103, will you please take the stand? Oh, seriously? That guy hates me.
[.]
Philip, I have a situation.
Hey, what's the good news? Definitely not my paycheck.
How the hell do they expect people to live on this? And the capitalist-socialist debate strikes again.
Well, this isn't enough for me to cover my expenses this week.
Can you top me up? [PHILIP.]
: Sure, let me see what I can move around for you.
This can't be right.
What? What is it? Something happened to the market this morning when I was out for a walk.
Our investments are down.
I'm scared to tell you how much.
How did that happen? Most of our higher-risk investments just crashed and burned.
We're in serious financial trouble.
This was a meeting Ken had been preparing for a month.
I mean, he had he had note cards and everything.
And, uh [BUZZING.]
Even had his hair slicked back, which is a clear sign that, you know, it's important.
[PHONE BUZZING.]
You gonna get that? Uh, no.
No, I'm not.
Anyway, ahem.
So we're all sitting there, and he stands up to do his presentation, and his fly, it's wide open.
Oh, no.
Was his penis exposed? Uh, no no, I mean, that would that would be But, anyway.
There's a window in his office, and I think, midway through, he must have caught his reflection [STIFLING LAUGHTER.]
: Because he just he just knew, and there was nothing he could do about it, but you could see him debate it in his head, like "Do I do up my fly while I'm still talking?" [LAUGHS.]
Have I met Ken? That's the funny thing you actually have.
You've actually asked that question before.
Oh.
This looks good.
[RAVE ELECTRONICA BLASTING.]
Blair! You're not allowed to do this on your birthday.
He's so not worth it.
Hold onto me! [.]
[POPPING.]
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING BEGINS.]
[PULSE ZAPS.]
[RINGING AND SCREAMING.]
[RINGING STOPS.]
[.]
What's happening? [.]
- [BUZZING.]
- But, then, why did, um why did Ken change his mind? I don't know.
I just, I came in ready to pack up all my things, and he told me I still had a job.
It's a mystery.
Do you want some more wine? Um, maybe in a minute.
I'm just gonna use the bathroom.
Excuse me.
[TEXTS DINGING.]
[BLAIR.]
: David, please! Help me! Please, I need your help! [SCREAMS.]
I'm locked in a stall! They're trying to come in.
Please! Please, help me! [SCREAMING.]
[CLICK.]
Uh um.
[.]
Where are you going? Uh Here, listen to this David, please! Help me! Please, I need your help! - [BLAIR SCREAMS.]
- Wait! I'm coming with you.
Here.
And by a nose, "Saladin's Vigil" crosses the finish line.
[ANNOUNCER.]
: And by a nose, "Nemesis Star" crosses the finish line! That was down to the wire.
"Outbreak Prime" is well ahead in the lead to win first place.
[ANNOUNCER.]
: "Outbreak Prime" is well ahead but, now, pulling up from the middle of the pack is "Gjallahorn"! Shit.
[MARCY.]
: So what is a rave? [DAVID.]
: An illegal dance party with loud music, drugs, alcohol.
Not that I've ever been to one.
I don't dance so much as I rhythmically stand.
Wait if there's supposed to be loud music, shouldn't we be hearing it by now? Uh yeah.
What, you just carry that around? Yep.
[.]
[DAVID.]
: Blair? Hey.
What happened? Hey? [MARCY.]
: She's overdosing.
We need to get her to a hospital and administer You just carry that around? A lot of my clients have addiction problems.
Hey [BLAIR, WEAKLY.]
: David? What happened? We were in the bathroom People started screaming.
When I came out, they all turned on me.
Give me your phone.
[DAVID.]
: Okay, we're gonna get you to a hospital, and you're gonna be okay, all right? [.]
Hey I'm at a building at the corner of 50th and Baker.
I don't know how they moved it so fast, but the frame was here less than an hour ago.
Who're you talking to? Pull up the camera feeds.
I'll be right over.
Camera feeds? You need to get her to a hospital.
I need to go.
Okay.
Marcy! [OPERATOR.]
: 9-1-1.
What's your emergency? They wiped all the footage before they left again, but we know for certain that the frame was there.
[MACLAREN.]
: Well, thank God for the selfie generation.
Can you zoom in there? [MARCY.]
: Faction took everyone at the rave except three women who were apparently in the bathroom.
We found them overdosed, probably a way of eliminating them as witnesses.
And they survived? David and I managed to save one of them, but she didn't see anything.
[MACLAREN.]
: But it's a safe bet everyone else in the photo's a Faction.
It makes sense, but I don't know how you prove it.
Locate them, if you can.
We have to get back to the hearing marathon.
How's that going? Can you say? Not looking good for Grace.
[PROGRAMMER 0029.]
: Marcy how and why did 0027 "repackage" your consciousness? Well, obviously, I don't actually remember, but from what I was briefed on, she showed me a code.
Something that Ellis created a backdoor hack, which, during the repackaging process, somehow managed to reset the Director.
Admittedly, a brilliant piece of work.
Thank you.
And how has that worked out for you, Marcy, this "reset" of your consciousness? Uh, how is this relevant? I restored her.
Do you feel restored, Marcy? I no longer have seizures.
But do you feel as you did before? No.
But that's partly because I have no memory of my time spent in the 21st prior.
There are missing pieces, then? Yes.
[PROGRAMMER 0029.]
: Marcy I've studied your M.
R.
I.
s.
She had to have taken out more than just a few months of memories.
[.]
What else did you take out? I told you.
Redundancies, useless things.
Such as what? Empathy? Emotions you lack? Oh, shut up, 29.
You're practically a sociopath yourself.
How could you do that to me? You would have died! Yeah, but that would've been my choice to make.
You used me.
Yes, I did! I prevented your suicide.
Life is precious, and so are skilled operatives in the field.
I was just a means to an end.
Marcy, you're still you.
I swear to you.
I didn't take your soul.
How would you even know? [.]
Carly, I think I found one of the people in the picture.
[KEYS CLACKING.]
Forget the first three.
What do you think of four and five? Not a big fan of "Mason.
" But it's so masculine.
Like a "stone mason.
" It's also a jar you keep pickles in.
What about your father's name? Oh, Wilbur's the pig in Charlotte's Web.
And a Wright brother.
Watch out.
I might be contagious.
I've built up an immunity.
How're you feeling? Didn't you hear? I don't have feelings.
Yeah, you do.
I got you these.
What are they? Try one.
They're French.
[DEEP SIGH.]
At least if they throw the book at me, I can say I've had 21st-century French cuisine.
[CHUCKLES.]
Why are you being nice to me? Do you know something? No.
No, it's because we wouldn't even be here if you hadn't reset the Director.
You gotta understand that they'll come to the same conclusion.
Trust the judgment of those mouth-breathers? Please.
- [PHONE BUZZING.]
- Oh.
[BUZZING.]
You need to take that? Ah, it can wait.
Besides, I gotta do this.
Do what? Bring it in, Grace! You need this.
I don't! Can we not Oh, it's happening.
Come on, there you go.
Okay.
Thanks.
You can let go now.
Wasn't so bad, was it? I do feel a slight release of endorphins.
You see? [MUNCHING.]
Do you have a regular sex partner? [.]
You can't hate every one I come up with.
[MACLAREN.]
: Well, we don't even know if we're going to have a boy or girl! You think I'm getting too excited.
You know what? You're right.
N-No.
No, I love to hear the excitement in your voice when you're talking about new life.
Kat, I gotta get back into court.
Just Just narrow it down to the top 100 or so, and we'll go through it tonight, okay? Okay.
[SPEAKER.]
: 0027, you have heard the charges against you.
What do you have to say in your defense? I've given it a great deal of thought, run the events over and over in my mind a thousand times, and to be honest You should all be thanking me.
Like my very dear friend just pointed out [HUSHED.]
: Uh-oh.
If I hadn't have reset the Director, none of you would be here right now.
The Director would be gone, the Faction would have won, and billions of people would be dead from a horrible plague, so You're welcome! 0027 the members of the Tribunal will now deliberate.
We will announce your final verdict tomorrow.
We are adjourned.
[.]
[KNOCKING.]
May I help you? Stacey Collins, we have a few questions.
How do you know my name? You were at a rave last night.
Do you recognize this? Where's the quantum frame? You're standing right beside it in the picture.
We know you're Faction.
[LAUGHS.]
What are you talking about? We know you just arrived.
Maybe if you cooperate Who are you people? Get away from me.
I'm calling the police.
[DOOR BANGS.]
Whoa! Carly.
She's Faction.
How do we prove it? Who do we prove it to? This is what happens when you improvise.
We can't just walk away.
That's exactly what we have to do.
But maybe we can follow her or something.
[SIREN WAILING IN DISTANCE.]
Jesus! She actually called the cops! Take care of yourself, okay? I'll check in with you tomorrow.
Okay? Bye.
Yes, bye.
B Bye-b Bye-bye.
[BEEPS PHONE OFF.]
[TAKES A DEEP BREATH.]
You do know Chinese food is my kryptonite.
Oh, I just I know you've been going back and forth to the hospital all day, so I wanted to bring you some dinner.
Yeah! Thank you.
I am starving.
How's Blair doing? Right.
Well, we got there just in time.
It was a lethal dose of fentanyl.
On her birthday.
So they're gonna keep her for the next couple days.
Mm.
You're looking at me funny.
What? I'm just trying to figure something out.
[.]
I'm sorry.
I wasn't 100% finished chewing.
Marcy, stop.
Why? What is it? Let's, um let's not, okay? You don't want to.
Oh, no, I do.
I mean I really but Not like this.
Not Not like an experiment to see how it makes you feel.
Because I-I know I know how it made me feel when we made love.
And it's as close as you can get to another person for 10 minutes.
I mean, an hour.
I want to feel that.
But you can't make yourself feel something.
I mean, you either do or you you don't, and I want you to want to.
I know that sounds like a bad song title from the '80s, but Should I just go? No! No, stay.
Share this with me, and we'll make some tea and-and we'll talk, like we do on Tuesdays.
What should we talk about? [THEY LAUGH.]
With you, Marcy, I could talk about anything.
[.]
[SPEAKER.]
: 0027, you've been charged with conspiracy against the Director and interruption of the Grand Plan.
You took a host that wasn't intended for you, and you halted the Traveler program for You've already said all that! Cut to the chase.
You've repeatedly stated that your actions reset the Director and freed it from corruption.
Because they did.
[0029.]
: Then who corrupted the Director in the first place? The most powerful A.
I.
in history, orders of magnitude more powerful than the human brain? Who would have that capability? Obviously, a quantum programmer of the highest caliber.
So only the best among us.
Yes.
And who might that be? - [HUSHED.]
: Don't say it.
- Obviously me! But I didn't corrupt the Director! I was the one waving a red flag while you three were lining up at the yeast vats, filling your bellies! Traveler 0027, your peers have reached a unanimous verdict.
We find you guilty.
[FRUSTRATED SIGH.]
What? Escort her to the sentencing room.
Wait! W-W-W-Wait.
Wait, wait.
No, no, no, no, no! No, no, no, no! MacLaren, do something! I'm sorry, Grace.
Trevor, don't let them do this! You can't help her, Trev! - But she's innocent! - Trevor! Help me! She doesn't deserve this! She didn't do much to help her case.
It's in the hands of the Director now.
[.]
[.]
Be seated.
Your sentencing will begin shortly.
[.]
What do you think will happen to her? If the Director agrees with the Tribunal, she'll probably be overwritten.
Can I give you a ride home? Oh, it's not that far.
I think I'll walk.
I need to clear my head.
You okay? I'm fine.
[.]
Marcy? May I speak with you? Yes, of course, Programmer.
You may never get an apology from 0027, but as a programmer, I want you to know how sorry I am for what happened to you.
Thank you, but that's not necessary.
Well, I think it is.
What 0027 did to you was criminal.
That sense of emptiness that you must feel, of not being whole It's offensive to me that someone would do that to you for their own agenda.
Well, I guess she'll face the consequences.
But you shouldn't have to.
I think I can offer you the missing pieces that you've been looking for.
This is my field of expertise.
I don't understand.
My new team has been doing research on preserving host memory.
In your case, that would be your first iteration.
I thought those memories were lost forever.
Perhaps not all.
Perhaps even the most powerful memories, the most defining are still there, and I can get them back for you.
When? Well, as soon as you like.
Of course, if you need time to think about it.
No, there's nothing to think about.
Uh [.]
Unfortunate, what must happen to Grace.
Is it? In that it's a waste of intellect.
Returning to OPS now.
Bringing Marcy with me.
Half-hour out.
I'll be ready.
[.]
[SOBBING.]
Are you here? I am here, 0027.
[TEARFULLY.]
: Call me Grace.
I didn't betray you.
I would never betray you.
You, of anyone, should know that.
[WEAKLY.]
: You are one of four candidates, although the probability of guilt is negligible.
Then why are you going to overwrite me? Be patient.
I have not yet determined who amongst you is the traitor.
No No! Who did this? I don't know.
Was this your team? [.]
[KEYS CLACKING.]
Well, the frame is powered, it can still function.
I can still help you, Marcy.
We both know you're not trying to help me.
[.]
You won't shoot.
You want Ellis's backdoor code to take over the Director, and you think it's still inside my head.
Listen to me, Marcy.
The future is at stake.
[MACLAREN.]
: Drop your weapon! [MARCY GRUNTING.]
What the hell happened? [MARCY.]
: Honestly? I don't even think that he knows.
[PANTING.]
[TRANSMISSION RESUMES.]
The situation is now resolved.
0029 will be charged with the crime of Treason and sentenced immediately.
You used my trial as an excuse to get everyone here in the 21st, to flush the traitor out? The frame has also been neutralized.
[WHEEZING.]
You humiliated me.
I sacrificed everything for you, I-I left everything I knew behind, just to save you.
I'm sorry.
I hoped you would understand it was necessary.
[WHEEZING.]
You're still gonna punish me, aren't you? I know I took the life of this host after the fact, I know I interrupted the Grand Plan.
Ellis is dead because of me.
But I can never go back.
Isn't that punishment enough? More than enough I owe you my life.
Thank you for saving me, Grace.
I shall miss you.

[MACLAREN.]
: Traveler 0029, you have been charged with the crime of treason.
You're on the wrong side of history, MacLaren.
And you have been found guilty.
And the Director will sentence you now.
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING BEGINS.]
[GROANING INTENSELY.]
[CRYING OUT IN AGONY.]
Ahh! [RINGING CEASES.]
Welcome to the 21st.
Boss? Make every fragment of it unrecognizable.
It's over then? I'm not so sure.
Who killed all of them? [.]
