Previously, on
"Motherland"...

Charvel!

Welcome to War College Sekhmet.

I'm your coven leader.
Call me M.

And you want me
to handfast

with Gregorio Shellbark?

Pass.

There are things about the Army

and Alder that just
don't sit right.

Bonnie and Shane, they seem
pretty well connected.

Bonnie said Wersadie pays them
to attend the vigils, too.

Stir things up.

If anyone's a link to
the Camarilla higher-ups,

it's this guy.

Your tribe just laid down
and died

instead of fighting
the Camarilla.

My tribe was ambushed

and murdered, Abigail.

But what you can do,

I've never seen
anything like it.

They're killing
themselves.

You stole my Work!

It had to be done.
You know that.

They already
surrendered.

Your heart... is black,
Sarah.

If Jem made
a Working

that could stop the battle

then maybe it's time
for another Bellweather

to build a Working.

*MOTHERLAND FORT SALEM*
Season 02 Episode 04

Episode Title: "Not Our Daughters"
Aired on: July 13, 2021.

Grafton
has it in for me.

I think your tongue
has it in for ya.

Try again.

Speaking in Mothertongue

Don't rush through it.

Speaks perfect Mothertongue...

So Mothertongue
for "library" is "library"?

No, there isn't a word
for "library" in Mothertongue.

So where did everybody
keep their books back then? Hm?

On shelves, one assumes.

You should be careful
about assumptions.

Some people might get offended
by them.

And maybe, some people just
need to get over themselves.

You know what? I'm late

for Strategic Tactical anyway

So I should...

Does anyone else know
this was you?

The weather?

It's best that they don't.

Why don't you just unbreak it?

In case you haven't noticed
by the sexy gravel in my voice

my throat's blown out.

Fixers say I'm on the mend,
though.

I was on my way to the mess
to get some tea with honey

if you want to come along.

Actually, I need to go
pack my bag.

Why? Where are you going?

India.

Khalida and The Hague think
they may have found a new home

for our people.

That's great.

But you just got here,
didn't you?

This has been made clear to me

I'm responsible for the rest
of The Tarim having died.

Look, if that's how you took

- what I said, I didn't mean...
- But you still said it.

And you might not be
entirely wrong.

So helping the survivors
get settled

is the least I can do.

Good bye, Abigail.

Ahh.

Keep making those noises,

I'm gonna have to start
asking questions.

Are you still
not talking to me?

I would only not be
talking to you

if I were upset about you
abandoning me at the reception.

Which I'm not.

But sounds like you would have
had your episode

even if I had been there,
right?

And you wouldn't have had yours

if you'd just come along
with me.

I would've just pushed myself
too hard

after you'd bunked down.

Haven't you heard?

I'm stubborn

And opinionated. And...

Your turn.

So, when's Adil coming back?

Adil left?

Because your voice
isn't sexy anymore?

What about this isn't sexy?

He and Khalida are looking
into where to settle.

Is it not here?
What else did I miss?

Tally's gone full obsesso
on the Liberian Conflict.

So, more Alder homework, huh?

All those books, all of them

say that Alder wasn't there
at the Martyrdom.

But I know she was.

I saw her there.

What in the name of the
Goddess were you thinking?

My goal was to have Scylla

lead Anacostia
back to her cell.

Once we learned they were
looking into the Camarilla too,

it seemed foolish

not to piggyback
on their operation.

Scylla Ramshorn should be
wasting away

in Saint Dominique right now.

My orders on that
were abundantly clear.

If we followed your orders,

we wouldn't know about the
Camarilla using hearing tests

to identify witches.

At least now,
with the testing centers

we stand a chance
of finding our sisters first.

We need to swap out the test
in hundreds,

maybe thousands of schools.

- We need you to authorize...
- Petra.

Give us the room.

So you work for Petra now?

You set the bar for breaking
protocol pretty high.

Before the Tarim mission,
you did what you had to do

to make President Wade
saw things your way.

And thought them your way.
And said them...

your way.

I didn't give you permission
to speak freely.

I didn't ask.

Do you judge me,
for what I've done?

I think I'll leave
the judgements to history...

Ma'am.

You put a fetch on that
Camarilla courier, yes?

General Bellweather
was planning on

bringing him in
for interrogation.

I'm going to lead the operation
to swap out the hearing tests.

We just need your OK
so that we could... - Oh,

Now you need my OK?

You stay on the courier.

Petra can handle the schools.

If the Camarilla's
power structure

is the same as it
always has been,

he'll report to one
of their Exarchs.

We need their leadership
identified and eliminated.

All due respect, but this is
Petra's operation.

And it's my army.

The answer is no.

Our cell disagrees.
She won't be happy about that.

Then the feeling is mutual.

Good bye.

Trouble with that other cell?

They're being short-sighted.,

I can't stop anyone from going

on whatever suicide
mission they're planning

but I won't be a party to it.

This isn't the military.

And yet, here I am

with an update on my mission
with Anacostia.

Orsatti's on the move

with those hearing
test results.

Hopefully, toward a higher-up
in the Camarilla.

Good. Stay on him.

You can keep the photo,
by the way.

I miss her, too.

I found my voice.

After today's
pilot launch

the military in conjunction
with the civilian government

will open more testing centers
across the country.

As you can see, our tools
are non-invasive,

and the accommodations,
far from medieval.

The military understands
how frightening and exciting

this time can be
in a young woman's life.

Prospective recruits will
be given the utmost privacy

and consideration during
the verification process.

Don't you mean to say
"prospective witches", General?

Witch or Civilian,

we're all American.

And I have no doubt that this
will bring us closer together

than we've ever been.

We got it. Thank you.

Find
your voice! Find your voice!

Not our
daughters! Not our daughters!

Viable candidates
are starting to thin, Abigail.

I hear Gregorio Shellbark
is in high demand.

That's because he's
a safety school with a penis.

Isn't finding and fighting
the Camarilla

a little more important
than handfasting right now?

There's more than one way
to fight the enemy.

And our family
has to fight back

any way that we can.

After Charvel.

Raelle, excellent work at the
weapon's test, by the way.

The brass were very impressed.

It's all a blur,
but thank you.

Savor it. History
is being made, after all.

Oh, speaking of history,

I'd like to pick your brain
about Liberia.

You served there, right?

The forever-front?

You just invited us
to keep your mom

from bugging you
about Gregorio, didn't you?

Can you blame me?

I'm really starting to dig

into the Martyrdom
of the Rebels.

Oh, before my time, I'm afraid.

All I know is from
the same books you've read

Esterbrook and her witches

refused conscription
when the US came knocking.

So they martyred themselves

to make a statement
to the rest of the world.

So why isn't General Alder
a bigger part of that story?

Why would she be?

She wasn't there when
the martyrdom occurred.

Oh, I heard she was.

Fighting alongside
a soldier named Batan.

It would have been one
or two classes before yours.

Where are you getting
your information?

She's been reading
so many books,

it's hard to say.

Hmm.

Though, Intelligence does
often have a hard time

keeping track of the General's
comings and goings.

You may want to find a source
closer to the story.

- Thank you, Ma'am.
- Mm-hmm.

You know, I gotta give it
to the Imperatrix

for at least throwing in
a couple of shortish brunettes

to try and trip me up.

You alright, Bells?

I'm great.

I just keep failing
at absolutely everything.

The Witchbomb,

Adil.

About the Witchbomb,
I mean, there's no...

failing or winning at dumb luck

As for you and Adil,

I-I mean...

Did Tally fail with Gerit?

Did I fail with Scylla?

You definitely didn't win.

'Kay.

Well, what I'm trying to say

is Tally's stronger
for having gone through

what she did with Gerit.

And I'm stronger
for having experienced Scylla.

You'll come out stronger
from Adil, too.

Besides, I'm not convinced
you two are done.

Orders coming down
from the General.

If it helps, I really think
Adil's going to miss you, too.

Shouldn't you be worrying

about your own
blossoming relationships?

My mother tells me you have
plenty of available options.

You sound surprised
by this information.

Cadets.

Orders just came down
from General Alder herself.

Things are getting tough
at the testing center opening.

Alder wants us there
with bells on

to make the new witches
feel at ease.

What if we have other things
that are more important

than Parade Duty?

You heard me
say "orders", right?

We're moving out
in fifteen.

Dismissed.

Except for you two
teacher's pets

Collar, you'll be on Alder's
personal security detail

once we get there.

Guess, it's the price
of fame, huh?

And me?

You won't be taking the bus.

Gonna stare at that all day?

You've been on base.

How is she?

Keep your mind on the mission.

Looks like Orsatti's
on the move.

Not our daughters!
Not our daughters!

This is ugly.

This is America.

Mind on the mission.

Justine.

Bonnie.

What are you guys doing here?

Just some more
pro-Movement work.

Rile the crowd up.

Keep things interesting.

Oh, you guys
should put these on.

We heard that the Army is
trying to identify protestors

so they can target them.

- Thank you.
- Not our daughters!

Not our daughters!
Not our daughters!

Tally, I wanna say thank you

for taking Penelope
under your wing.

I honestly wouldn't have

the first idea
what to do with her.

Do with me?

I'm not some broken toy.
I'm your daughter.

I never said you were broken.

Oh, but I'm
different now, right?

Than me and a lot of
other people? Yes.

But America thrives
on diversity.

Don't talking point me.

I think, your father
was trying to say...

Look, I'm the exact
same person I was

before what happened
at the church

Only now
with the help of Tally

and... everyone else
at Fort Salem.

I know more about
who I'm really supposed to be...

Who you're supposed to be
is my daughter.

I am.

And I'm also a witch.

If you can't accept that,

then you're no better
than the protestors

waiting for us at the center.

It's a scary adjustment.

For anyone.

Even if they know
they're a witch

before conscription.

Same goes
for soldiers' parents.

Well, here's hoping that
your performance today

makes everyone feel

a little, uh,
less intimidated.

On both sides.

You've got this.

Not our daughters!
Not our daughters!

Lot of
Movement people here.

Agent Provocateurs
mixed in

with regular,
witch-fearing citizens.

Orsatti's been busy.

He isn't chanting,
but he's not leaving, either

It's almost like he's waiting
for something.

- We need to go.
- We haven't learnt enough.

We're farther in than out now,

and Orsatti isn't moving.

We keep a low profile

and ride this out.

The songs we sing
are songs of freedom.

Songs of protection.

Of justice and sisterhood

and patriotism and pride.

And no matter what may come
of today's verifications,

I ask that each of you
honor your country

by letting these young women
discover who they truly are

with warmth and support.

Traitor!

Our first prospective recruit.

Please show her respect.

This can't be easy.

Time to find your voices,
ladies.

Not our daughters!

Not our daughters!
Not our daughters!

Have you ever seen
anything like this?

Too many times, Cadet.

No matter how remarkable
our service,

there will always be those
who hate us.

OK, Shireen. That's it.

You don't need to take blood
or anything? To confirm it?

We have everything we need.

And we have a place waiting
for you at Fort Salem.

You-you're
absolutely, absolutely sure

there's no such thing
as a false positive?

Welcome, daughter.

I've always felt like
I was different.

Now it all makes sense.

Thank you. So much

Billy's gonna lose his mind.

This way, dear.

Have them bring the next batch.

What is he waiting for?

Feels like something's
about to go down.

Keep an eye on Orsatti.
Let me know if he moves.

Yeah.

Join today.

Basic's gonna eat her alive.

It's just 'cause she's
upset about leaving

her boyfriend behind?

People leave, people die.

That's life.

Abs, you don't have to be
OK about Adil.

I'm not

I blamed him for the death
of the Tarim.

That's why he didn't stay.

Shit. He couldn't control that

Why would you do that?

I don't know.

I know I'm the last person

you wanna hear from right now,
but I need you to listen.

The Camarilla have at least
one operative on site

and have put something
in motion

with the Movement
and law enforcement.

Understood.

And thank you.

Thank you so much
for coming out today.

You've done
your nation proud, regardless.

Is everything OK?

Keep the Negatives inside
with the others for a bit.

And get me General Bellweather.

Using Agent Provocateurs is
very modern for the Camarilla.

Their tactics are evolving.

So, too, must ours.

If we sound the alarm,

then the public not only knows
that the Camarilla are back...

But that they've also
got us on our heels.

For today

we lie.

What did you have in mind?

We'll say it's the Spree.

What are you doing?

You heard the General.
The Spree are on-site.

I need to leave now
and you're coming with me.

I'm the face
of this entire thing.

What kind of example do I set
for everyone involved if I run?

Running and falling back
are not the same thing.

No. But it looks the same
to the people you leave behind.

Penny, it's...

Once you're trained
and deployed,

there is nothing that
I can do to keep you safe.

So pl...

Please...

just let me protect you today
while I still can, OK?

Please.

OK.

Thanks.

Not our
daughters! Not our daughters!

Please repeat...

... prepare Sekhmet for crowd escalation.

Well? What are our orders?

No clue. Farspeech just
glitched out.

Abigail, it's me, Charvel.

That doesn't sound like Alder.

That's because it isn't.

Abigail, where are you?

No, no, no.

Bells, who is it?

Abigail, I need you.

Charvel?

No, it can't possibly be her.

Where is that coming from?

Whatever glitched the Farspeech

is screwing with my Sight.

Abigail! Help me!

- Charvel!
- Abigail.

- Charvel!
- Abigail.

- I need you.
- Char?

I've been waiting
for so long.

For what?

To finish what
we started at the wedding.

- What is that?
- Don't touch it.

It looks like a bomb.

No, it's
definitely not.

Camarilla.

Set mark. Start moving
everyone back. Now!

- Clear the area.
- Moving out!

I'm gonna need you all to
please move away from the building.

This is for your own safety,
so please...

Our daughters
will never be safe!

Take a step back.

You'll take them
from our homes!

You'll send them away to die!

Please, step back!

Some of your daughters
may be called.

But they will be
in great company.

And they will do things

that they never thought
were possible.

Someone once told me

that I had to let the Army
make me strong.

And she was right.

The Army saw something in me

that I didn't even know
was there.

Your daughters
will be safe with us.

Please, move back.

We're here to help you.

Not our daughters!
Not our daughters!

Not our
daughters! Not our daughters!

Please step back!
Please step back!

Raelle!

Who did that?

Tally!

Where's Abigail?

My voice
was easy enough to slice out.

I can't wait to see
what he can do with yours.

Sing for us, won't you?

No! No!

I'm gonna enjoy this!

OK. Are you OK?
It's fine.

Stop.

It's done.

It's done.

- Time to go.
- Yeah.

Though the attack
was at first thought

to originate from the
War College cadets on-site,

it has since been attributed
to the Spree.

Izadora's already working to crack
those Camarilla mines we recovered.

Have her forward her findings to
The Hague, as soon as possible.

Petra.

They attacked Abigail.
Again, Sarah.

I know you want blood.

So do I.

But fighting angry
won't do us any good.

Make sure Sehkmet
knows that, too.

And that the truth about
the attack is need-to-know.

Do you think
it was really Scylla?

I do.

Tally, I'd know
those eyes anywhere.

But that doesn't matter
right now.

What doesn't matter now?

Hey, careful.

You've been sedated.

Should've used
stronger medicine.

You OK?

Not really.

The Camarilla came for me,
just like they came for Charvel

And I couldn't do
a damn thing about it.

You were outnumbered.

I walked right into their trap.

Because of Charvel.

Because I failed
at saving her, too.

Abigail,

look at me.

Don't put that on yourself.

It doesn't matter.

Uh, are we at war with
the Camarilla now or what?

Alder's been telling everyone
it was The Spree.

To keep panic from spreading
in the witch community.

She said we didn't have
to worry about the Camarilla.

She told me to let it go.

One lie after another, huh?

They're hunting her.

Tally, all Alder does is lie.

You said it in the Tarim.

Alder does what Alder does.

It's always someone else's life
she's playing with.

Where are you going?

Tally!

No more lies.

Who is Nicte Batan?
