Zoo (2015) s03e02 Episode Script

Diaspora

1 JAMIE: Ten years ago, the animal population mutated, endangering human life on the planet.
Our team managed to cure the animals, but at a terrible cost.
In an attempt to return the planet to the animals, a secretive group called The Shepherds released a gas that sterilized all of humanity.
And then, lab-made creatures Called hybrids Devastated the West Coast.
So a massive barrier was constructed to protect the rest of North America [roaring.]
but new breeds have started to appear, so we're trying to reassemble our team.
We battle on many fronts, searching for a cure to sterility while racing to stop the hybrids.
The fight for mankind's survival has just begun.
- Previously on Zoo - It's me, Clem.
My father's alive, and he needs you, Jamie.
It's Mitch Morgan.
MYERS: You're gonna be okay.
There's somebody here who's been waiting to talk to you.
It's me, your daughter.
Clementine.
You have to stop.
The last Shepherd that you chased - ended up dead.
- What are you gonna do, arrest me? I need to know what's on that drive, ASAP.
Somebody went through a lot of trouble to get that.
[explosion.]
[rhino roaring.]
I'm sorry.
[snorts.]
Is that the IADG investigator? Hey, excuse me, miss? [people screaming.]
[thunder rumbles.]
Damn it.
96 people dead, 100 wounded.
How could I let this happen? You didn't.
This was not your fault.
That woman, the bomber, we have to find her.
We've alerted the other safe zones.
Yeah, well, what if it's not about the safe zones? She bombed us the same day that we found the new hybrid.
That can't be a coincidence.
What are you saying, she targeted the hybrid? I don't know exactly, but there was this look in her eye.
We have to find her.
I'll grab some extra ammo.
For all we know, she's over the mountains by now.
Who knows who or what we'll run into? FIREFIGHTER: There's more in the bullpen.
- I need some help here.
- You hurt? No, I'm fine.
[police radio crackles.]
Danica.
- You shouldn't be in here.
- I know.
So who's working on I.
D.
'ing the ignition device? Who isn't? We know that it was a hard drive inside the evidence room.
We're still running analytics, trying to identify this symbol.
[sighs.]
Don't waste your time.
I know where the hard drive came from.
[phone ringing.]
That's where my dad's supposed to be.
[computer trilling.]
Siberia.
After ten years of coming up empty, I've learned not to get my hopes up.
After so long, I'd almost given up on finding you, but here you are.
Are you feeling any better? Oh, it's okay.
Dad, you don't have to talk.
Lieutenant Myers said that it might take some time.
Where am I? [computer trilling.]
Are you sure these coordinates are right? Yes, I'm sure.
Where are you getting these images? I had a friend re-task a Chinese satellite.
You have friends who task Chinese satellites? Clem, this place has been empty for decades.
There's no record of any traffic going in our out.
How can you be so sure he's here? Let alone alive? This is why.
Where did you get this? I have friends, too.
How? How did you find him? I got a call from Lieutenant Myers.
He told me an IADG survey team found a man in a stasis tank in an abandoned compound.
A man that they believe to be my father.
I thought it was a cruel joke until they showed me this picture.
I thought you were dead.
I don't know how and I don't know why, but my dad, he's alive.
Who else knows about this? [door opens.]
MYERS: Hey.
Has your father started talking yet, Clementine? - A little bit, but - Did you ask him? Not yet.
We'll get there.
But right now, his brain's gamma frequency readings are still low.
How long? Hours.
Days.
Look, we're in uncharted territory here.
No one's ever been in stasis this long.
Maybe we should just let him rest.
[scoffs.]
Fine.
But there's a storm moving in, and I don't plan on being here when it hits.
Don't mind him.
- Stay.
- Okay.
Dad, I'm here.
Jackson Oz? What's he got to do with this? You think he's connected to the bomber? Mm, no, no, no.
I'm, um, I'm just Carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders again? You act like all of this is somehow your fault.
The spread of the the razorbacks? The TX sterility? I get why you want to track down Jackson as he and his crazy father are the bastards who started this all, but you can't solve all the world's problems.
The Shepherd hunters will find Oz.
They'll make him pay.
You, Dylan Green, are a wonderful, caring, passionate man.
You have saved hundreds, if not thousands, of lives out here.
And that's enough.
Do you believe me? Yeah.
Terrible liar, Dylan.
Let's go find your hybrid lady.
We now understand that the TX-gas has changed the neurons in the hypothalamus, prohibiting the production of the hormone essential for reproduction.
BOARD MEMBER: With all due respect, Leanne, we are on the Titanic here and you are explaining the mechanics of how we are sinking.
I understand your frustration, Cal, but we have made progress.
Our latest synthetic hormone, FH-562, was able to increase gonadotropin levels by 28% in our test subjects.
So, what does that mean? Ovulation.
Ovulation? Now, unfortunately, the egg wasn't viable, but even so, no one else has been able to achieve this feat.
But our goal is not just ovulation.
It's to bring a child to term.
The only way to make this happen is with your continued support.
Give us a moment, please, Leanne.
Mm-hmm.
How's it going? Well, the fate of humanity rests on this self-important prick, God help us.
Ah.
[taps remote.]
So, what are you thinking, Cal? You have our backing, Leanne.
We will talk to the other board members.
Fantastic.
I'll let the team know.
Ovulation? We're nowhere near that milestone.
All that matters is that Cal thinks we are.
Well, then it's good we have this.
The NLRP2 protein.
But I thought this wasn't viable.
We found another protein structure.
The formula works.
This is what we've been waiting for.
We can begin trials.
Where did you get this? One of our contacts, Jonah Sutton, got it from someone he used to work with at the University of Michigan, Dr.
Abraham Kenyatta.
Who? You figure that thing out yet? Not even close.
Whatever Jackson encountered beyond the wall, it's like nothing I've ever seen.
They could've used our help, you know.
You're worried about Clem.
If Mitch is really out there and there's others looking for him [sighs.]
I know Jamie's with her, but we've had trai They are going to be fine.
I feel sorry for anyone who's unlucky enough to come between them and Mitch.
I know, it's just after all we've been through together, riding the bench ain't easy.
We're not riding the bench.
We're raising our son.
[scraping outside.]
What was that? It's that tree out front.
I really should cut it.
[both chuckle.]
I know, I know.
[razorback snarls.]
[siren chirps.]
Okay.
Okay.
Call me as soon as you have eyes on Campbell.
Thank you.
Still no sign of her? [sighs.]
I'll find her.
Well, this should cheer you up.
We ran some more tests.
We were able to identify the accelerant.
It's a hyper-carbon, extremely powerful.
These are initial results from the Portland bombing.
- It's the same hyper-carbon.
- Yeah.
Okay, so who's running the case out in Portland? No one.
That's hybrid territory.
No agency is gonna send personnel that far past the barrier.
But what about non-law enforcement? We need somebody out there, we need a contact.
We need somebody who knows the area.
There's an aid group out there.
FEMALE VOICE: Both state and federal agents Wait, pause that.
Go back one.
Punch in on that.
Unbelievable.
[siren wailing.]
Hey, this is Detective Hale.
Badge number 39374.
I need priority air transport.
Where are you going? Oregon.
JACKSON: That's her truck.
She's gone.
Well, see if she left anything behind that might tell us where she went.
Nothing.
What is that? I have no idea.
Hello, Jackson.
What's going on? Don't worry, son.
Why weren't there any warnings about the hybrids? Go, go.
I know this is scary, but stay here and stay quiet and everything will be fine.
Be brave for me? Give Mommy a smile.
Still no signal.
Some kind of interference.
So, we're on our own.
[dog barking.]
[snarling outside.]
[electronic beeping.]
What is that? [razorback growls, glass cracks.]
Abe.
We have to what? [electronic beeping.]
The tissue sample, it's grown into a fetus.
Into a baby hybrid? But how? I don't know.
But this egg, I think it's calling for help.
[dog barking.]
The razorbacks have come for it.
I've seen this kind of long distance communication before in mutated lions, but that was nowhere near this powerful.
[razorbacks growling.]
If that thing is what they want, I say let them have it.
We can't leave it here.
This new hybrid has grown from a tissue sample into a fully-developed embryo in a matter of hours.
If I can study it, somehow isolate the hormones responsible, this embryo could pave the way to reversing the effects of the TX-gas.
You really playing the "we have to save the world" card again? This could be the key to solving human sterilization.
We cannot leave it behind.
[thunder rumbles.]
Sounds like the storm's moving and we got to work fast.
I'll lure them to the backyard.
You take Isaac to the truck.
I'll meet you on the access road.
No, no, Dariela.
It's too dangerous.
There may be another way.
[grunts.]
You must feel like Rip Van Winkle, waking up in a different world.
Humanity sterilized.
The West Coast fallen.
Packs of monsters roaming the streets.
But the IADG, they think that you can help.
They think you know how to stop the hybrids.
Do you remember anything about how you ended up in that tank? Who put you there or why? It's okay.
Just might take some time.
79, 60.
79, 60? Seeing your face again, the only thing that I can remember is 79, 60.
You don't remember.
The parking ticket I got the day you were born.
$79.
60.
Money well spent.
Almost missed your birth.
And I missed half your childhood.
And the past ten years.
I swear, I am I'm not missing another second, ever.
[chuckles.]
It's good that you're remembering.
They need you to remember something, too.
What do they want to know? They're looking for answers about some kind of program.
Blue Diaspora.
I don't know what it means, but whatever it is, it's really important.
It's the reason they came for you.
We did everything we could to find her, Dylan.
Okay, I don't even know how we're supposed to sleep with her still out there.
[sighs.]
Well, we live in hybrid country, beyond the barrier.
We've seen our fair share of god-awful, horrible things.
We've helped hundreds of families find their way to safety, so I sleep fine at night, especially knowing you're in bed beside me.
[knock on door.]
Logan.
It's a nice place you got here Dylan.
How we doing, Dr.
Morgan? His core temperature is coming up.
MYERS: That's great.
Heart rate stabilized.
Blood flow is improving.
Well, how about your memory? Anything coming back? Yeah.
I remember everything.
Just waiting for you to upgrade me to a better room.
[chuckles.]
Well, you got your sense of humor back.
That's a good sign.
So then, tell me, what do you remember about Blue Diaspora? I'm sorry, I don't know what that is.
I understand.
But my team tells me otherwise.
What's inside your head, it could help save a lot of people.
How? I'm afraid that's classified.
But you get back to your old self, we get you IADG clearance, you can help us.
Help the IADG? Last I checked, you were trying to murder every animal on the planet, so, um no, thanks.
I know your history with our organization, with General Davies, but that was ten years ago.
I assure you, our priority now is protecting people from the hybrid threat.
And that's why we're here.
But we need your help.
We need you to remember.
I don't know what to tell you.
I've tried.
There's nothing.
That's all right.
Well, it looks like your gamma frequencies are still lagging behind.
I got some meds that should be able to help with that.
I'll be right back.
Whatever he gives you, don't take it.
Clem, what are you not telling me? We need to get out of here.
These are not good people, and they're not with the IADG.
Who are they? They're Shepherds.
[door opening.]
Who are you? Clementine.
You shouldn't be down here.
What are you doing down here? What am I doing down here? What are you doing down here? - Clem, take it easy.
- Take it easy? You have a man in a cage on your plane.
He doesn't deserve to be called a man, not after what he did.
A little dramatic, don't you think? Shut up.
His name is Greg Mansdale.
He's a Shepherd.
For the last three months, he's been giving me information, information I use against the other Shepherds.
He's one of the people who poisoned the planet, sterilized humanity.
He's one of the people who took Mitch from us.
Do you know anything about my father? You're Mitch Morgan's girl.
Well, look at you all grown up.
I said shut up.
- [stun gun zaps.]
- [grunts.]
He doesn't know what happened to your father, but he is going to help us find him.
[door buzzes.]
This photo was taken yesterday, in Siberia.
An abandoned Shepherd compound.
Wait, Shepherds Jamie, how did you find This was taken today.
Tell me what's changed.
[stun gun zaps.]
[screaming.]
Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay.
[panting.]
Please.
It's a hangar.
And that's the shadow from the open hangar door.
It means someone's there already.
But my dad.
If it's Shepherds and not the IADG Then we have to be ready for them.
- [stun gun zaps.]
- [screaming.]
[stun gun zapping.]
Hello.
My name is Leanne Ducovny.
I'm chief executive officer of Reiden Global.
And let me start by saying thank you for taking the time to watch this video.
Now, I'm excited because Reiden Global has made a breakthrough that we believe, with your help, will put an end to the sterility pandemic.
[growls and barks.]
[barks.]
You want to hurry it up, Abe? This should block the signal.
Like a Faraday cage.
[snarling.]
[dog barking.]
Can we go now? If this works.
[glass shattering.]
[whining.]
[razorback snarling.]
[barks.]
Let's go, let's go.
Isaac, come on.
We have to hurry.
Go.
Go, go, go, go.
You're working with the Shepherds now? Teaming up with them was the only chance I had at getting you back.
I did what I had to.
Why would they bring you along? They knew that you would never trust them.
They needed a familiar face.
You know something.
About Blue Diaspora.
And they will do whatever it takes to get it out of you.
[alarm blares.]
That's the security system.
Unknown aircraft coming on its final approach.
They're coming for Mitch.
- Well, go take care of it! - Yes, sir.
Let's go, let's go.
I don't know what that is, but this seems like a good time to get out of here.
- Let's go.
- All right.
- [Mitch grunts.]
- Oh.
How are you a cop? It's been years Dylan.
A lot can change.
Tessa seems nice.
You so much as breathe a word to her about me, - I swear I will - Easy, easy, easy.
If you want to call yourself Dylan and play hero in the badlands, be my guest, okay? I'm not here to change that.
But as somebody who knows a thing or two about lying to the person that you love, the sooner that you come clean, the better.
[Tessa approaching.]
What'd I miss? Thank you.
Dylan was just saying how lucky he is to have you.
Is that so? You came an awful long way to hear about our love life.
Look, I want what you want.
To find the person who bombed my precinct and your camp.
The woman you're looking for is mid to late 30s.
Brown hair, dark skin, about five-seven.
- You've seen her? - TESSA: Just for a second.
We tracked her and found her truck, but it was a dead end.
She left this behind.
Have you found anything else with this symbol on it? No.
Okay.
I'm gonna need to see where you found this.
- If we leave right now - There is no "we," Detective, okay? So if you don't mind, I have people back at camp that need my help.
Look, I don't know what the deal is with you two, but it sounds complicated.
And Dylan's probably the most uncomplicated guy I know.
Well, you just you don't know Dylan the way that I do.
SOLDIER: We've boarded the plane.
Moving in.
Mansdale? Run.
[gun cocks.]
[men grunting.]
CLEMENTINE: This isn't going to work, you can barely stand.
We have to try.
Oh, is that right? - Please.
We were just - Shut up! You sit down.
No.
- I said sit down.
- No.
He doesn't know any ah! [groaning.]
: Ow, ow.
Well, maybe he just needs a little motivation.
No, no, no, no! Hold this.
Let's give Daddy some space.
Come on.
[razorbacks snarling.]
There's two outside by the ABRAHAM: Isaac, don't move.
Everyone stand still.
[whispers.]
: Why isn't it attacking? It's looking for the egg.
Then that's give it to him.
ABRAHAM: It's too important.
It won't matter if we don't make it out of here alive.
- [growls.]
- [gasps.]
[yells.]
- Daddy! Daddy! - Abe! Abe! Daddy! [growling and snarling.]
[Abraham coughs.]
Daddy, are you okay? Yeah.
[gasps.]
I'm okay, Isaac.
JACKSON: Keep your leg elevated.
All right? Just take it easy.
Someone's calling for you.
MAN: Help with that one.
This is Dylan.
Dylan.
You look more like a Jackson to me.
Who is this? It's me, Jackson.
You, your lions and that adorable little girlfriend of yours have been chasing after me.
You have something of mine.
The disc.
Consider it a gift.
So you'll remember me when your world crumbles around you.
Who do you think you are? 96 people are dead because of you.
You understand that? - Why? - I always imagined you were smarter than you appeared.
Who are you? You destroyed my world once.
Now it's my turn.
Yeah, well, let me tell you something, okay? You have no idea who you're up against.
[line clicks.]
[shouting.]
DALLAS: You give me Blue Diaspora, I give you your daughter.
Easy.
But if you keep on playing dumb, you are gonna wish - you never woke up.
- No! Aah! Dad, please, tell him! Dad, please! Look, I-I I told you.
I don't know what that is.
- You're a liar! - Dad, tell him! I'm not lying, I don't know what that is.
I don't know how to help you.
Look, I will do anything you want, just, d-don't hurt her.
- Do you love your daughter? - Don't hurt her! Do you want to see your daughter alive?! - Don't hurt her.
- Help me! - I can't help you! - Two! - Don't, don't, don't! - One.
Don't.
[wire zapping.]
- You okay? - Yeah.
I'm fine, I think.
You know how to use that? Do you? Stop.
Dad? - Dad, is that really you? - Who the hell are you? It's okay, I'm, I'm his daughter, Clementine.
You are not Clementine.
I am.
- What? - Don't listen to her.
- Let's shoot her and let's get out of here.
- What? Dad, I came here to save you.
- Don't call me that.
- Dad.
- We need to get out of here.
- You either! Dad, I know this is hard to understand right now.
- Stop talking.
- Don't listen to her.
Stop talking, both of you, stop talking.
- Don't do it, Dad.
- Shut up.
Shut up! Why don't we all just take a breath, and put the guns away.
You first.
See? No gun.
Now I'm gonna reach into my pocket, - Dad.
No.
No.
- I can prove - I'm your daughter.
- Keep your hand out Stay the hell out of this.
No, Dad! [drops gun.]
My parking ticket.
- Dad.
- [gun clatters.]
I didn't know you had it in you.
Who are you? You're gonna tell me everything about Blue Diaspora.
Let's go.
[gunshots.]
Are you okay? Nice beard.
JACKSON: She called me.
That bitch called me.
Who called you? The bomber.
What did she say? Well, she knew my name.
She was taunting me.
Like it was personal.
Because it is.
I I.
D.
'ed the bomber with, uh, with DNA off of that disc that you guys found.
Her name is Abigail Westbrook.
This is her genetic profile.
Okay.
When I got the preliminary results, I just assumed you must've somehow contaminated the sample.
So I had my tech run the tests again, but the results, - the exact same.
- What are you saying? You and this Abigail Westbrook share multiple genetic markers.
That's why I thought it was contaminated, but it wasn't.
Jackson, Abigail Westbrook is your sister.
CLEMENTINE: You sure you know what you're doing? The bullet passed clean through.
So I'll have to watch it for infection, but you're gonna be fine.
Well, if you're looking for a second opinion, I can take a look.
How you feeling? Like I shot my daughter.
I see it, now.
I couldn't see it before, I'm sorry.
What? You.
Given the circumstances, I think I'll let it slide.
Maybe these will help.
Um, I'll leave you two alone.
Wait, Clem.
Don't worry, Dad.
Not going anywhere.
So how did you end up with the plane? [laughs softly.]
Well, we saved the world on this thing, I thought I should keep it in the family.
What happened? Last thing I remember is, uh, teeth and claws, ripping into me.
Whoever saved my life, they They didn't do it out of the kindness of their hearts.
You were in Siberia.
At the edge of the world.
Whoever put you in that tank, they didn't want anybody to find you.
They kept you away from me from the world, for ten years.
I'm going to find out who did this.
I'm gonna find out why.
I'm gonna make them pay.
Finally got him to fall asleep.
He's afraid the razorbacks will get him while he's sleeping.
The world's become a dangerous place.
So many things we have to protect him from.
We got lucky today.
Looking back, maybe we should've gone with Clementine.
[both laugh.]
[knock on door.]
Sorry to disturb you, sir.
Can we come in? Sure.
You all right? We had a hybrid incident.
We'll alert IADG.
But that's not why we're here.
My kid's sleeping.
Mind if we talk in the kitchen? - Yes, ma'am.
- It's this way.
If this isn't about the hybrids, why are you here? An emergency government protocol has been initiated in the tri-county area.
What protocol? We have an introductory video that explains it better than I could.
Hello.
My name is Leanne Ducovny.
I'm chief executive officer at Reiden Global.
And let me start by saying thank you for watching this video.
I'm excited to tell you that Reiden Global has made a breakthrough, that we believe, with your help, will put an end to the sterility pandemic.
- But sacrifices - What? Will need to be made for the greater good.
Which is the reason that I'm addressing you.
Your child has been selected to participate in our pilot program.
He or she will be safe in our custody.
Isaac! - Ma'am - Hey, hey! [yells.]
Isaac! Isaac! - Isaac! - Isaac! - Isaac! - Isaac! [slow motion.]
: Isaac! [slow motion.]
: Mommy! Daddy! Please, God, please.
[heart beating.]
