- Bye-bye, Kenny.
- Bye, Kenny.

Bye.

How does God choose
when it's time for someone to die?

A lot of people think
that they know the answer to that but...

no one really knows but God.

If God is so great,
couldn't he make it so nobody ever dies?

Honey, there must be a reason that
all things have to die. There must be.

We'll all know the reason someday.
Sometime.

Is the time near?

Dr Sorenson, we're in a hot zone.

We can't determine that
until we collect all the evidence,

and corroborate it
with the CDC at Fort Detrick.

We don't have to wait, sir. It's here.

We knew it was coming,

that it would spread faster than we
could ever control it, and now it's here.

The time is now.

There's cracks around back.

The foundation's cracked,
I guess it's all right.

This house was damaged
long before this morning's earthquake.

Bletch. The Old Man. Our family.

Maybe now we've found our way back...

It's time for a different yellow house.

Frank? This came for you.

Henry left you some property. A cabin
and a few acres in the Wenatchee Mountains.

We should put this up for sale.
I'm not gonna have any use for it.

It might be nice
to take Jordan out of the city.

No one's been up there
since I was in high school.

I'm sure the cabin's barely standing.

Well, now that you've left the Group,
it might be a nice project for you.

Honey, yesterday, Peter Watts told me

there was going to be
an earthquake this morning.

To the magnitude, to the minute.
The Group knew.

There's something happening,
events are unfolding.

Events that, if I understood,
I could affect.

It's a responsibility,

that, for the sake of you and Jordan,
I can't walk away from.

So much in me distrusts their power.
I am disgusted by their control over people.

I doubt their Christian prophecies.

I want to tell them to go to the hell
that they fear so much.

But beneath it all...

I believe them.

I can't walk away until I am certain
of what the future might bring.

The way you feel toward them...

describes my feeling toward you.

The time is near,

Why now? Why now, Frank?
Why were we born now?

Do you realise the probability
of even being born at all?

The chances of any life being here,
let alone you and me?

When it ends, we'll be among the ten per cent
of all humans who ever lived,

Do you understand the odds
of being born at the time it ends?

Since the time is now,
since the end is here, we're all old,

But compared to all the life on earth,
in the universe, we're infants,

That's all we'll ever be,
Can you calculate the odds of being both?

I'm so lucky to be born now,
The things they've told me,

The responsibility, Frank,
just to know is enough to... to see it,

Having a chance to witness,
To have the chance to watch it happen,

But we'll be all right,
We can't be born just to die,

We knew this was coming,
we've known for two millennia,

"Blessed is he who reads, and those
who hear the words of this prophecy,

for the time is near,"

Richard, I'm honoured you offered me
ajob with you in the Trust.

But I have to remain
with the Millennium Group.

Can you say why?

Frank, get out.

Get away.

When we investigated
Lara Means' whereabouts for you,

we made some discoveries about Millennium
that scared the hell outta me.

They're watching us.

You should be aware that they've begun
intense surveillance on Peter Watts.

Any group who so closely monitors
their own members should be feared.

I am certain of one thing, Frank.

- I'd be watching your back.
- Be well, Richard.

How is it decided
who lives and who dies?

Maybe, individually,
we are allotted only so many days of life.

Maybe, as a whole, mankind
is only allotted so many days of life,

So you see,

in what appears to be
the plan for mankind,

the death of one individual
is absolutely inconsequential.

The Millennium Group is not concerned
with any single individual life.

Do you see where I am going with this?

Our responsibility,

and remember that word,
it'll come up again,

our responsibility
is to the life of the whole of mankind.

And so we must proceed in a manner
that increases the odds of that survival.

Sounds like a paradox.

But it is the very nature
of our responsibility.

If one life appears to interfere
with our protection of billions of lives,

it really becomes a no-brainer.

And the courage to be responsible
for all those lives,

that is the first thing
that you must understand and accept.

As you are about to become
a member of the Millennium Group,

there will be a constant
danger to yourself,

mentally, physically,

in the responsibility
of the responsibility.

Just the simple act of comprehending
the reality of the events before us

can cause some to break.

Come on!

And for those who are not broken by
the danger and responsibility of knowing,

comes the intensity of living with that
reponsibility for the rest of their lives.

And the actions which must be taken

to achieve the Millennium Group's
success of purpose.

This is who we are.

Long time.
This is no way to meet up again.

- Did you examine this?
- Of course.

Nothing.
I was positive this was no accident.

The Trust checked the car, intent on finding
the evidence to prove our suspicions,

but no foreign substances
in the brake line,

no evidence of tampering
on the pads, disc or wheel drums.

No one can tell me the same night Richard
informs me the Group is watching us,

he dies in a car wreck.

Frank, death is never convenient,

no matter what the circumstances,
the timing or the need for a reason.

Sometimes it's just as simple as...
our time is up.

There are strange reports
out of the east of China, near Jinan,

in which an entire village of farmers
and their families were found dead today,

Causes are being attributed to everything
from mass suicide to a toxic spill,

- You put yourself at risk coming here.
- We're all at risk.

Lara Means. I heard a message.

She's volatile. Sometimes happens
after being initiated into the Group.

It could happen to you
if you intend to become a member.

- I'll never stop questioning.
- You made me start questioning.

You can stop looking for evidence here,
they didn't do this.

How do you know that?

The Group's occupied
with something far more important.

You tried to get information about the
Marburg virus from the Group's database.

Yes, I did.

After you showed me the medical tests,

which indicated we had been inoculated
without our being aware,

I needed to know
"inoculated against what?"

So, since it appears that
I no longer have level blue clearance,

I broke into Group archives
and stole some of the Old Man's effects.

A recorded transmission
and his security access phrase.

I matched his voice code, got into level
blue and I looked up the Marburg virus.

- What did you find?
- It appears to live in an animal host.

Somewhere in the Kitum Cave region
of East Africa.

The Soviets, Biopreparat,
sent men into the jungle to find it.

Jordan keeps having these dreams
about monkeys.

Frank,
your daughter doesn't just dream.

What about the Russians?

The object was to create
a devastating biological weapon.

The virus is genetically labile.

It could exchange genes with plague,
anthrax, smallpox, flu strains,

which creates variant viruses

against which a human population
has no immunological defence.

Weapons-grade anthrax takes 8,000
microscopic spores to introduce an infection.

The Marburg variant
they created in the lab takes three.

In 1982 prions were discovered.

A prion is a protein that has no RNA, no life.
It would make the perfect weapon.

It's immune to antibiotics, enzymes,
can withstand heat of over 600 degrees.

A Marburg variant virus was
genetically engineered with a prion,

thereby creating a biological agent
that would kill quickly, spread rapidly

and, if the virus were neutralised,
the fused prion would finish off the host.

When the Soviet Union fell,
the bioweapons facility was abandoned.

The virus, Marburg variant PRP,

a man-made life form that had never been
exposed to the environment, leaked.

Birds in the area, and birds were
especially susceptible, became infected.

They migrated to Alaska, Northern Canada,
to the American Upper Midwest.

In 1986 a Wisconsin farmer
and his flock of hens died from its effects.

It had undergone antigenic drift.

It could be transmitted
from birds to humans.

As soon as that happened,
the virus disappeared.

The virus.
You're telling me it's back?

- The man we found by the river last week?
- Yeah.

A family near San Diego, a few days ago.

A village in China yesterday,
a town in South America today.

The Group has a vaccine.
They gave it to us.

Yeah. After '86 they developed a vaccine that
would keep the virus in check, in the body.

- People can be inoculated?
- There would never be enough material.

They only made enough for
Group members.

And their families?

And their families, Peter?

It was always about control, Frank.

They're gonna expect us to stay with them
now they've protected us from this plague.

So watching our families die,
that's protecting us?

- What are you gonna do?
- Get your family, I have a place we can stay.

Lara Means, can you contact her?

"The revelation of Jesus Christ,
which God gave him,

to show his servants things
which must shortly take place,"

"And he sent and signified it
by his angel to his servant John,

who bore witness to the word of God,

and the testimony of Jesus Christ,
to all things that he saw. "

"Blessed is he who reads, and those
who hear the words of this prophecy,

and keep those things which are
written in it, for the time is near. "

Forget it, Watts!

She's coming with me.

"I am the Alpha and the Omega,

the first and the last. "

- Yes?
- Frank!

Peter, what's up?

Peter? Where are you?
What's going on here?

Geibelhouse. I need you
to track Peter Watts' cellphone.

No, no, now. Now!
All right, call me back.

Peter? Where are you?

Where are you?

Peter! Where are you?

Peter!

...since last Wednesday's outbreak,
is estimated at 500,

Under the advisement of
the Centres for Disease Control,

the Government and the
State of Washington

have declared King, Pierce and Thurston
counties quarantined areas

until further notice,

The CDC admits to not having identified
an infectious agent or cause...

- Hello?
- Catherine?

- I've been calling you all night.
- Pack the provisions. I'll be there in an hour.

We need you here now.

I'll load the van myself.
Don't go outside.

Lara, you're the only one,

not my wife, not my family,
who ever understood.

Only you.

I've travelled that road, Lara,
that you're on.

What I saw made me swear
that I would rather die than return.

Oh, I know peace can be found there.

And if you do, if you do find it,

I know you will never return.

Thank you. Thank you.

Our new yellow house.

- Can we go home now?
- We're gonna be here for a while.

- OK.
- Come on, sweetie.

Ugh!

- Mommy, I'll be right outside.
- OK, sweetheart.

Catherine...

During the Black Plague, people took
their families to the mountains or the forest.

They'd post guards encircling their camps
and kill anybody that appeared.

The ones that practised this behaviour,
they survived the outbreak.

The symptoms, which a victim
may not recognise, include disorientation,

Monitor any increase in body temperature,
be aware of a low-grade fever,

Secondary symptoms may take
only hours or minutes to appear...

Can we turn it off?

Look at her.

What if she gets sick?

- How can we let her go through that?
- We wouldn't.

If I get sick,
I don't want you to watch me die.

- Hey...
- I don't want her to watch me die.

- You would have to...
- What? I couldn't do that.

- I couldn't.
- You have to.

- What are you asking me?
- Wouldn't you want...

I wouldn't ask you to do that.
I'd go out in the woods... I'd just...

I wouldn't ask you to do that. I wouldn't.

If you both became sick, I wouldn't...

I wouldn't want to live after that.

I can't get sick.

It was done to me and I didn't ask
for it. The Group gave me a vaccine.

- They know what this is?
- I don't know what they know.

- What are they doing about it?
- It's a virus. Maybe it loses it virulence.

It fades away, or maybe they're going
to give it to the government, I don't know.

They told me that they only had enough
for their members.

Oh, my God.

Lara Means got a sense of
what was gonna happen to her.

We gotta give it to Jordan. Right away.

I love you.

Where's Mom?

We need supplies,

Many are dead,
This is a general distress call, Send help.

I made this!
