[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

[LOUD EXPLOSION]

PARAMEDIC: Here we go! Here we go!

[GLASS SHATTERING]

PARAMEDIC: Okay, put him on the board.

Watch his head!

I just want to know how he is doing. Please!

Please, miss, stay back!

Talk to me! He'’s my father.

Please, just let us do our job.

PARAMEDIC: We'’re loosing her. We are loosing her.

DOCTOR: She is gone.

Emma!

Emma!

JESSE: Brennen, she'’s dead.

SHALIMAR: Emma! Let me see her!No.

She'’s dead.[SOBBING]

SHALIMAR: Emma!

WOMAN: I can'’t stop the bleeding! I need some help!

Emma...

This can'’t be happening.

Where is Adam?

[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]

NARRATOR: Scientist Adam Kane, was a pioneer of genetic research,

manipulating DNA to save human lives.

But in many their genes unexpectedly mutated

and they developed superhuman abilities.

Together, four of the most powerful fight

to protect the world that does not even know, they exist.

They are... Mutant X.

JESSE: I'’ve been searching for last ten minutes, Guys.

The locator is still saying Adam'’s comlink is off the grid.

The main system at Sanctuary has better search capabilities.

I think we'’ll have better luck there.

If he came out of the water, he couldn'’t have gone too far.

If?

I'’m gonna increase the sensitivity.

He wasn'’t there, Jess.

They transferred him to the local hospital.

No one matching his description was transported.

Alive or dead.

This is like a nightmare.

Except we are wide awake.

Jess, are you gonna be okay?

[SAYS SADLY] Yeah. Okay.

[CLEARS THROAT]

I guess we should make some arrangements

for Emma.

A funeral.

Yeah.

Yeah, we should get in touch with people she knew.

Her Mom.

And they can keep track of where she moved to.

Just feels like she can walk right back in that door any minute, you know?

I know.

[SNIFFLES]

I remember when we took this one.

Emma had only been here a couple of months,

picnicking on the mountain.

She said it was the best day of her life.

She touched my mind...

shared it with me.

She always shared the good stuff.

Kept the pain to herself.

Sorry!

Sorry for what?

For what, for feeling?

Shal, we just lost one of our best friends.

You know, if you weren'’t ready to break down right now,

then I would think there is something wrong with you.

What are we gonna do without her?

Just take time to get past this, you know.

Then we'’ll figure out where we go from there.

I'’m just gonna miss her so much.

I know.

Come here.

[COMPUTER BEEPING]

Guys, get in here!

[BOTH COME RUNNING]

I got a hit from Adam'’s signal.

Where?

It'’s downtown.

And it'’s moving.

So are we.

Give us an update, Jess.

[TYPING]

He'’s heading north on Fairway, almost to Rickland.

Okay, I am taking her down.

JESSE: Scan showing he is standing next to a...

It'’s a phone booth. Four o'’clock to your position.

[COUGHING]

Adam?

Adam?

Where the hell did you get this?

Where did you get this?

[ANXIOUSLY] C'’mon guys, what have you got?

What'’s going on? Is he okay?

Jess! What'’s happening?

I am not sure. It is definitely Adam'’s signal.

Who could have done something like this?

MASON: How soon I'’m forgotten!

Eckhart!

SHALIMAR: It'’s impossible.

He'’s broadcasting off of Adam'’s frequency.

I would be, if I didn'’t have Adam and his clever ring in my keeping.

You'’re lying.

Am I , Mr. Silva?

Bad idea.

If you do anything stupid, many, many people will die.

Including you.

I'’m already dying.

My immune system was destroyed years ago.

My entire body melting down at a genetic rate.

This synthetic dermal casing that I'’ve worn is all that's kept me alive.

And unfortunately,

it was breached in the escape from Naxcon.

What do you want from us?

All of Adam'’s research and how to treat my condition.

And you will get your friend back.

Hopefully, still alive.

If you harm Adam in any way,

I'’m going to rip you limb from limb.

That'’s what I like to hear.

The opening salvo in a negotiation.

You really should know better by now, Mr. Mulwray.

I'’ll be in touch.

Damn it! This is a waste of time.

Even if we wanted to give Eckhart what he wants, the system won'’t cough it up.

And there are literally millions of potential passwords.

There has to be some kind of back door.

No.

The system would sense intrusion in seconds.

If it senses the intrusion is aggressive enough,

it will wipe the drive.

We will be left with no usable data at all.

Maybe there'’s another way to get the information.

I mean, maybe he shared it with somebody.

Yeah, um. Ever known Adam to share information?

Face it, guys, we are screwed.

THE WOMAN: Wow!

You guys give up easy, don'’t you?

BRENNEN: Who the hell are you?

How did you get in here?

Jess, what'’s going on?

She controls lights.

She'’s bending it around her.

She still gives off heat.

You might be able to fool my friends,

but I can see you day or night.

Then, here'’s a little day for you.

Can we consider the introduction'’s made and just get on with it?

What is the '’it' that you want?

What is the '’it' that I want?

To be back having dinner with a delectable painter

named Marco on the Italian Riviera,

but unfortunately, I was called back here.

See, Adam Kane'’s disappearance has worried

a number of powerful people and they asked me to be involved in his return.

Why you?

Because I have a unique understanding of the situation.

Also, Adam and I have a special relationship.

Bull. We have never even heard of you.

And that means...

We'’d know.

If you knew Adam as well as you say you do,

you'’d know, he doesn't share all the information with any one person.

Why should we believe any of this?

You wanna get into Adam'’s files?

You'’d have a better chance, if you knew his password.

My name, Lexa.

So find the information you need and you better be fast.

Connection will always shut you out after 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, there'’s something important I'’ve got to do.

[TYPING]

She is in.

Adam always kept stuff around for late night snack.

You sure make yourself at home pretty quickly.

This was my home.

For two years.

You lived here?

Yeah.

I was Mutant X 1.0,

or I was supposed to be.

I realized somewhere along the way, I wasn'’t a joiner.

Oh God, I don'’t know how much Adam told you about what he was doing,

why he is doing it.

But there are people out there, Adam answered to.

Adam worked for people?

In a way.

See, Adam lit the fuse to a genetic time bomb,

and there were some powerful people out there who decided it had to be put out.

They realized the only one who could do that was Adam himself,

so they gave him funds, access to information

and... home, sweet home.

Yeah, don'’t try and tell me that some people in your world

actually care about somebody else.

Adam made a deal.

He wanted to escape Genomex and the GSA.

You know, certain parties actually believe

that he may have made a deal to slip their tether as well.

And you still work for these people?

I work for myself, Stud Muffin.

But you see sometimes my goals and theirs coincide.

And what are your goals?

I said, I am on your side.

That'’s all you need to know.

Why should we believe you?

Because if I wasn'’t, you wouldn'’t still be alive.

Advanced genetic research was never my forte, but I found a document

that lists experiments on DNA taken from Eckhart that Adam was working on.

Now it shows results with a number of different possible therapies.

According to this,

Eckhart might have been telling the truth.

I mean, the later experiments were actually successful,

they reversed the damage done to immune system.

Why don'’t we know about this?

[CHUCKLES] There'’s more.

Adam was working on this all along.

You'’re saying he was actually trying to help Eckhart?

Well, I mean that'’s the way it looks, but I don'’t know.

Maybe he was trying to save it as a bargain for the future.

Who knows?

Yeah, a future they'’d be divvying up in some way.

What'’s going on here?

Dominant selection, okay?

Who lives and who dies.

That'’s the only power these people are interested in.

I say we sit on this information.

What about Adam?

There is no guarantee that Eckhart even has Adam.

Okay? And if he does,

who'’s to say that he's gonna turn Adam over

once we hand him that research?

The more we learn about Adam and Eckhart'’s relationship, the more it stinks.

They always seemed like they were so different, right?

They weren'’t!

One way or another, they have the same agenda.

We know Adam'’s agenda.

Better living through controlling disease.

Is that so bad?

Shal, where have you been the last two years?

Anytime that you mess with human genes, you open Pandora'’s box.

If Eckhart manages to save himself, he'’s gonna be harder to stop than ever.

The whole world will suffer.

Jesse'’s right. We make the trade.

Oh, since when do you get a vote?

Since I gave you the bargaining chip.

[SCUFFS]

Look guys, I am not saying we just hand it over.

We go in with a plan.

Which I assume, you already have figured out.

Yeah.

Listen, it'’s all about risk assessment.

Information is on a disc, right?

Now, we have to assume Eckhart is not planning on giving up Adam even if he has him.

We also have to assume he'’ll try to take the disc by force.

First sign of either, we toast the disk,

guarantee it'’s useless to him.

Now that'’s where you come in, Sparky.

Adam won'’t be far away.

As soon as we have him, you neutralize Eckhart.

One way or another, he is not walking away from this meeting.

Any questions?

I guess we are going in.

I'’ll fire up the Helix.

For your sake,

you better not be playing us.

Don'’t worry about me.

Sorry about Eckhart.

MASON: Nice to hear from you,

I knew you'’d do the right thing.

You didn'’t give us much choice.

MASON: I know.

Come to the City West chemical plant.

This is smelling worse by the minute.

You trust her?

Do you?

I'’m still trying to figure that out.

Stare at me any harder you'’re gonna burn a hole in my head.

Just trying to get a take on you.

You just worry about holding up your end.

Good answer.

MASON: Right there will be fine.

Full house.

Mutant X plus one. Miss Pierce.

Eckhart.

I'’d love to speculate on the political amalgamations that brought you all together,

but alas, my time is restricted.

Well, don'’t strain yourself.

You know why we are here.

Indeed!

What have you brought me?

[SIGHS IN RELIEF]

Where'’s Adam?

Where is... Adam?

Belief is a fascinating thing, isn'’t it?

Belief that I would live to crush Adam Kane,

is all that stained me imprisoned in my pod all those months.

And belief that your mentor is still alive has convinced you

to bring me my salvation.

But in this case neither of these two conflicting beliefs

can be borne out as truth.

I won'’t ask you again.

[CRACKLING]

Alas! I was denied the pleasure of destroying Adam,

with my own hands.

You'’re lying.

Adam'’s comlink was retrieved from his lifeless body.

He was lying on the shore charred beyond all recognition.

If he is...

[GROWLS]

When are you going to learn there'’s nothing you have that I can'’t possess?

I'’ll get him.

Now stay down!

This does not mean that Adam is dead, Brennen.

You heard Eckhart.

Eckhart, Eckhart, Eckhart has been lying to us since forever!

They were ready for us.

They expected us to try and destroy the disc.

They took the damn thing from underneath our noses!

You know, I cannot believe I was dumb enough to ever trust your plan.

You wanna be the boss around here?

You at least need to bat higher than a 500!

It was a sound play, all right?

You were the one who fumbled the ball.

We were smart. He was smarter.

We don'’t have time for games, Brennen.

Eckhart'’s out there getting himself well.

Now we don'’t know how long it'’s gonna take him to figure out

how to implement the gene therapy, but we'’re running out of time here!

Eckhart got what he wanted. Adam'’s dead.

He doesn'’t need us any more.

May be that'’s the end of it.

Don'’t believe it.

You guys, better fasten your seat belts.

Because once Eckhart'’s back in business, Genomex, the GSA,

all of it will seem like summer camp in comparison.

Yeah, what'’s changed?

You'’ve been lucky. There are others who weren'’t so lucky.

Little party favor from Eckhart'’s people.

Yeah, I'’m done.

It'’s high time that I stopped making Eckhart my problem.

What is that supposed to mean, Brennen?

I didn'’t sign up for this crap, Jess!

I am damn sure not gonna stick around and end up being somebody'’s lab rat.

Oh, really!

Now what do you think Adam was doing with you all these years, huh?

Layers and layers, Brennen.

You are still just scratching the surface of what'’s really going on.

I don'’t wanna hear about it

and I don'’t wanna be a part of it.

There is no option.

You know, I spent a lot of years living on the streets

before I knew anything about Adam,

or this whole mess that he created.

I can easily do it again.

JESSE: Okay, let'’s just not get spun out here.

We still have a mission.

What mission?

What living like fugitives in this hunk of a rock?

Running around, risking our lives every single day

for a world full of people that want us dead, if they knew we existed?

Well, you can'’t walk away from this, Brennen.

Watch me!

The hell with you,

and those people that you work for.

Brennen! Brennen! Where are you going?

I need some breathing space.

Look, we need to stick together.

Why? Huh?

Shal, I may not have been such a good guy before I joined Mutant X,

but at least I always picked a mark that probably deserved it.

Right now, we have no idea what we have been fighting for all these years,

or for who!

We knew!

It was for Adam.

Oh, Adam!

Yeah, the guy who messed around with our DNA and lied to us all these years?

We have no clue who he really was,

or what he was really trying to do.

[SIGHS]

Look, I just need to think, okay?

Look...

I understand you giving up on Adam.

Don'’t give up on me and Jess.

Yeah.

Never.

MASON: I didn'’t ask whether you could do it or not.

I asked, how long?

Assuming that Adam Kane'’s theories were correct,

we should finish assembling the necessary equipment within three hours,

another two to complete the modification on stem cell quickening synthesis,

Another two hours for testing.

You will ready the chamber in two hours,

and the synthesis will begin one hour later.

There will be no testing.Mr. Eckhart, I...

My time is disappearing.

Within three hours, I live or I die.

Don'’t disappoint me.

I won'’t, I won't.

You will be well taken care of.

If I die, however,

it won'’t be alone.

Okay.

Excuse me.

Oh, Tommy!

Brennen!

It has been ages. What, two years?

Yeah, about that.

Listen.

I need the usual, my friend.

Dirty vodka martini, straight up. Three olives.

Yes.

So you are...

back to stay?

Not quite sure, yet.

Things are...

Things are a little complicated right now.

Looking for some action?

Yeah, could be. Could be.

May need a stake to disappear for a little bit,

if you know what I am saying?

Just let me know, if you hear of anything, huh?

Keep it.

Cheers, buddy!

[COMPUTER BEEPS]

Anything?

I'’ve been tracking the equipment Eckhart would need

to implement Adam'’s therapies.

Most of it is pretty standard issue in any gene lab, but,

there'’s a few specialized pieces

that had been sold in the last 24 hours.

So if we follow those pieces of equipment,

we should find Eckhart.

You worry me.

Why? Because I'’m not in your face like the others?

Something like that.

You'’re gonna join Mutant X, huh?

We could use someone like you.

Just a little word of advise.

Don'’t let people in too easy.

It'’s a good way to get yourself killed.

So Adam was a mad scientist, huh?

Sometimes people let their obsessions drive them to do more harm than good.

Is that why you left him?

You didn'’t trust him any more?

Maybe.

Whatever Adam is...

He taught me good ideas.

Ideas that I am still gonna fight for.

Another idealist.

MAN ON THE PHONE: Yes.

Yeah. I didn'’t know if this number even worked anymore.

But, someone told me if a guy came to my place again,

I should call.

They said there would be money in it for me.

MAN ON THE PHONE: That depends, which guy?

Brennen Mulwray.

You keep him there and you'’ll get your money.

They'’re ready.

Are you?

[SIGHING WEARILY]

More than ready.

Help me up.

Got a positive location on Brennen Mulwray.

He'’s alone.

Not for long.

Take him.

It'’s already underway.

Come here.

Silva,

if this procedure is not successful...

kill them all.

And if it is successful?

Kill them anyway.

Now!

[BEEPS]

[MASON SCREAMING]

Oh God!

No!

[COMPUTER BEEPS INTENSELY]

[MASON SCREAMS LOUDER]

[MACHINE SHUTS DOWN]

Excuse me.

What does a girl has to do to get a drink around here?

What he'’s having looks good.

You'’re Brennen, right?

And you are?

[ECHOING] Oblivion.

The oxygen is everywhere except in your lungs right about now.

Don'’t fight it, Brennen.

It'’s so much easier just to let go.

[SUFFOCATES]

Let go!

Run me a tab, will you?

THE MAN: Miss Pierce,

you were supposed to draw Mutant X together,

not tear them apart.

Look, I didn'’t sign on to run a group therapy session

in the mutant halfway house, okay?

THE MAN: You signed on to achieve our goals.

However, they must be achieved.

They'’ll come back.

There will be nothing for them to come back to.

If Eckhart manages to heal himself,

he will come after the rest of Adam Kane'’s research.

That cannot be permitted.

Well, as they say around here,

you open Pandora'’s box,

you deal with the consequences.

You consider this our problem?

You ran Adam. You used his results.

We were partners.

Don'’t play games.

I know too much.

I'’ll make preparations to shut Sanctuary down,

I can sterilize the facility.

When Eckhart arrives, it will be useless to him.

Our strategy calls for you to ensure

that Sanctuary and it'’s information remain active.

Also that Mutant X remains a viable force.

Meaning?

We'’ve learnt Eckhart's people kidnapped Brennen Mulwray

from a downtown bar twenty minutes ago.

Making him talk won'’t be easy,

but Eckhart will make him talk.

You want me to stage a rescue.

Look, Adam Kane is probably dead

and this was a temporary assignment.

We have decided you should remain.

That wasn'’t the deal.

This is an opportunity for you, Ms. Pierce.

Remember...

we can help you locate the people you are seeking,

or we can just as easily obstruct your search forever.

Think about it.

JESSE: Well, well, well.

What'’s it gonna be?

Not so easy being a tourist sometimes, is it?

Before you know it, you can end up native.

Do you always listen in on people'’s private calls?

My friend'’s fate is at stake.

Oh, yeah.

Fully grounded, Mr. Mulwray.

When we have guests, we do think of everything.

What the hell do you want from me?

Everything I want includes everything Adam had

and that includes everything he cheated me out of.

I want Sanctuary and its information.

You'’re insane.

You want Sanctuary? Start looking.

Why? When I have you to help me.

Mr. Mulwray, Mutant X is dead.

Sanctuary is just real estate now.

Now that'’s the frustrating thing about Mutant X.

It'’s not really dead, until it'’s really dead.

Mr. Silva,

I want the location of the Sanctuary,

access codes, entry points...

Everything.

Let me guess.

We can do this fast, or we can do this slow.

No.

[WHISPERS] I only do slow.

[GRUNTING]

What can I get you?

Something you got for my friend earlier.

What friend?

Big guy.

Goes by the name Brennen Mulwray.

Never heard of him.

I can smell your fear.

Right now, you stink like last week'’s garbage.

Where is he?

[GROANS]

Mr. Silva!

Results?

He stayed conscious until just a few seconds ago.

Perhaps you'’ve forgotten my distaste for excuses.

Marika will take his mind apart until I get what I need.

As with most of her kind,

there won'’t be much left of your mind after she'’s done with it.

[STAMMERING] You expect me to talk?

No, Mr. Mulwray.

I expect you to die.

[GROANS]

I'’m in.

Bartender called a freight broker Bruce International.

There'’s no address.

Out of business two years.

Yeah, it is an old GSA front company.

The only thing they broker is

information on mutant activity.

How do you know that?

I used to work for the GSA.

Oh, don'’t worry. It was another life.

I'’ve had a few of them.

Oh, looks like the final signal goes to a...

cell phone.

I'’ll try to triangulate the signal now.

And...

Voila!

It'’s an old abandoned power plant on Governor.

Let'’s go.

[BRENNAN SCREAMING]

He'’s fighting me.

Focus now.

Where is it?

Where is this place you call Sanctuary?

Show me.

Please.

Show me.

Concentrate, you fool.

What is that? Where is that?

I need more detail.

Good!

Passwords.

Access codes.

Co-ordinance.

Yes.

That place.

The place that meant so much to both of us.

The place you knew I'’d never look.

Enough.

We have what we need.

Kill him.

Your turn.

Let'’s go!

[ENGINE STARTS]

You can'’t run faster, Eckhart.

There'’s nowhere to hide!

[GROWLING]

Listen, Mulwray.

Without Adam, you are like lost children.

I can give you purpose.

I know what he was doing to you.

I can help.

Don'’t be stupid, Brennen.

Adam wouldn'’t have wanted this.

Adam is dead!

Mulwray...

You will not defeat me!

[PANTING]

He had to be stopped.

We'’re having the dedication for Adam and Emma now.

Are you coming?

Oh, I don'’t think so. This is your time.

I thought you and Adam had a relationship.

Look. I know you don'’t like me being here.

You'’re a feral, you wanna protect your turf.

I'’d sense, if you were a threat.

I don'’t fear you.

I just don'’t think I like you in my home.

Listen, whether we like it or not,

we are in this together.

Gotta go.
