Abigail:
Previously on Motherland...

We don't know how
but this force protects us
when we're threatened.

Just let me in.

I want to know how someone
gets to be you.

The Spree gave me a place
to put my pain.

I guess we're more alike
than I thought.

-What are you doing here?
-I have no idea.

I warned all witches
that the Camarilla is back.

That's a fetch!
She's been trapped!

(exclaims)

I really missed you.

I thought you were dead.

He's changing.
This is not his place.

The bond we share
will endure forever.

We're surrounded.

I have a little surprise.

How can I help?
Hello?!

(distorted screaming)

(panting)

It's been like this for days.

They haven't been able to
recreate the phenomenon at all?

I've thrown everything
I could think of at them.

Sonics, weather work,

physical and environmental
stressors.

Nothing.

Disappointing.

I've got a delegation
coming from The Hague

and I had hoped to tell them

we had a new weapon in
the coming fight

against the Camarilla.

Soldiers,

I want to thank you for your
patience and cooperation,

but we're suspending
these tests.

We can keep going, ma'am.

For now, it's more important
that you join Cadet Craven

for the start of War College.

But ma'am,
in the desert, this weapon--

Ah!

Yes, ma'am.

Thank you, ma'am.

(door closes)

We need to find
a different way forward.

Any ideas?

A closer look at the effects of
the event might shed some light.

May I show you something
that just arrived

from the Tarim region?

I always feel so humbled
in her presence.

Izadora: General.

Direct from the epicenter
of the event.

Extraordinary.

I've never seen
anything like it.

Nothing human remains.

I'm confident that
my examination

will tell us more about
what it was that happened.

Alder: And whether we can
make it happen again.

Keep me informed.

(theme music plays)

Series brought to you by Sailor420
!!! Hope you enjoy the Series !!!

Tally: Are they going
to keep testing you?

Raelle: Who knows?
They don't tell us anything.

I hope so. There's no way
they're just gonna let it go.

What, so you wanna
keep being a lab rat?

If it keeps us
in the fight, yes.

Don't you want to
understand what happened?

Yes, of course, I do.

But I'd rather we
figure it out ourselves

than have Izadora poking
and prodding us.

How about you?

Any more weird Alder dreams
or snakebites?

It was centipedes.
And no,

but I almost wish
I would have one.

It was terrifying,
but also kind of amazing.

All right, Bells.

I know you've been waiting
for this day your whole life.

So what are we in for?

Yeah, when do we meet
our Company?

This morning.
But nobody says Company.

Just call it our Coven.

Sekhmet.

Egyptian?

Every Coven is named after
a war goddess.

Guys, apparently there are
a lot of rumors

going around
about the three of us.

What?!

I guess some people
are saying we only got in

because your mom
pulled strings.

Let people talk.

We'll show them what
we're made of soon enough.

Is that the VP's daughter?

Yeah.

And they're having her stay
on this side of the base

until basic starts.

Oh, she looks so lonely.

I feel bad for her.

I was still biddied when
her father met with Alder.

He seems freaked out
by the whole witch thing.

It's been a week.
What have you learned?

You were right.

While I haven't heard anyone
use the word Camarilla,

it's clear that there's someone
powerful pulling the strings.

these rallies and vigils
are too well funded.

Too well organized.

We'll need more than that.

Thank you.

And, I, uh made friends.

A couple, Bonnie and Shane.

And they seem
pretty well connected.

How so?

Well, they always know
when and where

the next event is gonna be,

like, before anyone else.

Today they'll be at the mall.

Can you get close to them?

I think so.

The wife...
she seems lonely.

I think she could use a friend.

Be careful.

Don't lose sight of the mission.

You know what can happen
when you get too close.

Why didn't you reach out to her?

Did you know that
when Raelle was ten,

I spent a total of eighteen
days with my family?

Yeah, she said
it was like that a lot.

Because they didn't approve of
who I married,

they decided to keep me
in the field and keep us apart.

Every time I walked in the door

and saw that my girl was
growing up without me,

I got angrier.

And that anger grew until
I lost sight of everything

but the Spree's mission.

In the end, she still
grew up without me.

I live with that every day.

Then once we knew that
the Camarilla had returned,

I started thinking
she might be better off...

safer in the Army.

What about now?

What would I even say?

M: Welcome to
War College, Sekhmet.

I'm your Coven Leader.

Call me M.

Feel free to come to me with
any questions you might have.

You'll have some of your
general classes together
as a Coven,

but most days
you'll be following

your individual specializations.

Once you've finished dealing

with your super-cool hair,
of course.

Fear not.

You're still bunking
together as units.

You'll find your rooms
down the hall

if you want to go ahead
and stow your gear.

Dismissed.

All right.

Been a while, Bellweather.

Good to see you.

Hi, Gregorio.

Later.

M: Collar,

can I borrow you
for a sec?

I'm sorry about earlier.

No need to apologize.

I was staring at you.

Why?

Your reputation precedes you.

I just wanted to see what
all the fuss was about.

Gossip's a little high school,
don't you think?

In War College,
gossip is intel.

There's only one thing
I've heard that concerns me.

Scylla.

That had to suck.

Yeah. It did.

It still does.

I just want to make sure

that is all in the past.

No more secrets

that are going to come to light
and reflect poorly

on this Company?

Believe me...

(Raelle and Head)
I'm all done with secrets.

Tally: So...

Who is he?

That's Gregorio.

You've heard about him before.

My Cavalier.

-Oh, yeah. At your debut?
-Abigail: Mm-hmm.

Wait, the one that
Libba stole from you?

No one stole me.

I'm not a possession.

(Gregorio sighs)

You should see your faces.

Look, the whole thing
was a misunderstanding.

Libba and I were actually
together back then.

-I'm sorry. I never knew that.
-No one did.

We were keeping it secret.

And then
High Atlantic Tradition,

and the stars, dictated
that I be your Cavalier.

Libba was never
big on tradition.

Well, unless it was
the tradition

of giving you shit.

-She was fond of that one.
-Yeah.

You know, she would've liked
your eulogy, though.

You were there?

I thought it was beautiful.

And it was fun watching
your mother squirm.

(chuckles)

And now you're a male witch
at War College.

That must be exciting.

Yeah, you could just say witch.

-Oh, I didn't mean to--
-Hey. Kidding.

(laughing)

Is she always this serious?

Yeah.

(laughter)

M: Sekhmet! C.O. on deck!

I just wanted to
wish you all well

on your first day
of War College

and impress upon you
the importance

of the journey that you're on.

It's not just about
the Spree anymore.

We are now, all of us,

facing the return of an enemy
that I thought

was gone from
this world forever.

An enemy that wants
nothing less

than the eradication
of our kind.

I want the thought
of that enemy,

the Camarilla,

to be in your mind always

as you continue your training,

driving you to excel,

and develop the skills that
we will need to destroy them.

I also want to
encourage you to embrace

the foundational principles

of War College.

To know...

You must be constantly
seeking the truth,

no matter where it leads you.

To dare...

to be utterly fearless.

Not just in facing the enemy,

but also what lies inside you.

To will...

to effect change
in the world around you

with total control
and conscious intention.

And to keep silent.

You spoke the words
in your oath:

All Secrets Keep.

It is this veil of silence
that allows us

to do what needs to be done
to keep this Nation safe.

These are the pillars on which
your curriculum is built,

and the precepts by which
I live my own life.

Take them to heart,

and they will serve you well.

And with that,

I'll leave you to get on
with your day.

(scoffs) If you're gonna
bring intrigue to class,

you're gonna have to make sure
there's enough to share.

I think this is the part
where we keep silent.

Carefully now.

It looks like the Mycelium.

It doesn't just look like it.

This is part of our Mycelium.

Somehow, she colonized a body

that was half way around
the world at the time.

How is that possible?

Through Raelle.

That must have been
her voice it was using.

Raelle is the only person who
has touched the Mycelium

and walked away
more-or-less unscathed.

They're still connected somehow.

(soft music plays)

(clears throat)

I'm pleased that you have
turned out to pay your respects.

But we must also
raise our voices

and let the powers that be
know that we demand justice.

We demand that the monsters

responsible for this

be held accountable!

For too many years,

the Spree have been
waging a war.

The victims of this war
are not witches

but decent God-fearing
Americans.

Let's not let
their sacrifice be in vain.

(crowd murmurs)

Thank you.

Justine. I was wondering
if I'd see you here.

Hi.

Yeah, no, I wanted to come
and pay my respects.

Shane is very inspiring.

-He's good, right?
-He certainly is.

(female speaker)
I lost both my parents
in this attack,

and, uh...

I think about them all the time.

And there's this...

hollow ache inside me
where they used to be.

It's okay.

I know it's hard
to hear these stories.

(speaker)
I think about all of
the ups and downs of life

that I'll never get to share
with them and for what?

All because they were
in the wrong place at...

Yeah.

I think about them, but...

But I also think about
that person, that witch,

and I wonder:
does she ever feel remorse?

Does it keep her up at night,
thinking about what she did?

Is there anything
human left in her?

(music intensifies)

What the hell are you doing?

I can ask you the same thing.

Revisiting some of
your old haunts?

Feeling nostalgic?

You've been following me.

That fetch-- that was you.

Why haven't you arrested me?

'Cause that's not
what this is about.

Mm. This is part of
your quest to save me.

To capitalize on the remorse

that you think you felt
when you linked with me.

I'm sorry to disappoint,

but you were wrong.

You mean the remorse that's
been written all over your face

from the moment
you walked in here?

(scoffs)

Look, you're right.

That's how it started.

But I've been
watching you for weeks

It's got me curious.

You're trying to infiltrate
this movement.

Figure out who's behind it.

It's more complicated than that.

You think it's the Camarilla?

The... enemy has returned.

Has re-changed his focus.

Some of us have.

Why reveal yourself now?

I saw an opportunity
and I took it.

Look, I want in
on what you're doing.

That's bullshit.

What's really going on here?

There are things
that I've seen lately.

Things about the Army,
and Alder in particular,

that just... don't sit right.

Including the decision
to just throw you away.

It just has me wondering
if there might not be
a different way.

Bonnie: Justine.

There you are.
We thought maybe you had left.

Bonnie and Shane,
this is, um--

Hi. I'm Amelia.

Your speech was so moving.

-So sorry for your loss.
-Thank you.

It's hard being here.

So, uh, you two know each other?

-Yeah.
-Um, we've seen each other at
rallies the past few weeks.

Yeah.

Feels like
we're kindred spirits.

I'm so sorry,
this is all a bit overwhelming.

Does anyone else need a drink?

Definitely.

Yeah.

(sighs)

(indistinct chatter)

Tally: Hey.

Are you okay?

Yeah, it's just... my dad.

I get it.
With me, it's my mom.

We can't get through a call
without it ending up in tears.

Abigail:
Tal, you're late for class.

Don't worry.

It'll get better.

Sorry I'm late, cadets.

My name is Channing Grafton,

and I will be your instructor
for Mothertongue.

I've asked Adil,
our guest from the Tarim,

to sit in since, unlike
most American witches,

he grew up speaking
Mothertongue from birth.

How many of you are wondering

why you need to
study this at all?

Isn't it just for The Hague,
at this point?

Or High Atlantics?

No offense.

(speaks Mothertongue)

I lost you at the end.

Will...

You-- Will you stand...?

He's challenging you to a duel.

Channing: There's no
comparable term for it

in English but, uh,
right of proxy

is the closest.

It's a tradition that's, uh,

fallen out of favor
in the recent times.

So, besides being the root
of all known languages,

which I personally think
is pretty cool,

uh, there's certain work
that can only be done

using Mothertongue.

And, uh, ask yourself this:

how is it that Adil is able to
speak perfect English,

a language he's never studied?

I see I finally
have your attention.

So...

Excuse me, General.

May I have a moment?

Craven.
What can I do for you?

I've been thinking a lot
about Penelope Silver.

What about her?

I'd like your permission
to tutor her.

To get her up to speed
and ready to start Basic.

Your empathy, as ever,
shines through.

You have my blessing,

-Thank you.
-General?

The Hague delegation
has arrived

and are waiting for you
in your office.

Carry on, Cadet.

Hello, General Alder.

Khalida.

What are you doing here?

Discussing where
Adil and I might settle.

In the interest of finding
a permanent home for the Tarim,

Khalida will be touring some
of the other Council nations.

Khalida: General Alder,

I am forever grateful to you,

but you know my feelings
about us remaining here.

If this is what you want,

I'll arrange for
a security detail.

Khalida:
That won't be necessary.

General Sharma
has offered her protection.

Alder: Khalida,

I wish you would reconsider.

Talk to your brother.

He was there, in the Tarim.

He saw what the Camarilla
is capable of.

There have been reports
of skirmishes

with the Camarilla
from several Council nations.

And more outbreaks of that
strange disease they created.

We've been calling it
the Witch Plague.

Apparently it does not
harm civilians.

No. It's clear that
the Camarilla have engineered it

as a weapon of witch genocide.

The Camarilla have found a way
to replicate our work,

using technology powered by

the stolen vocal cords
of witches.

It's an abomination!

Sarah, how can they
have risen again

without any of us knowing?

I don't know.

But what is important now
is that we come together

to stamp them out,

and remove
the stain of their blood

from this Earth forever.

I will root them out and
destroy them in my country.

Can I count on you to
do the same in yours?

(exhales)

Should I be offended
that your mind

is clearly on something else?

I'm sorry.

Khalida wants me to
come with her on her world tour.

Are you going to go with her?

I don't know.

I hear you had lunch
with Gregorio.

Can I ask you something?

What is a Cavalier?

-It sounds... intimate.
-(chuckles)

Frequently, it is.

But not with me and Gregorio.

We just never clicked that way.

(kisses)

I'm glad you're
making friends, though.

Maybe that'll give you
another reason to stay.

The work you used,
with the bottle.

What was that?

Something of my own.

It's definitely not Canon.

-Maybe it could be?
-(scoffs)

I don't think The Hague
would approve.

But you saved our skins,

and for that I am grateful.

I'm happy to serve you, General.

I've been watching you.

What you can do is rare,
but it's too wild.

You need to put that power
in the service of your will.

Maybe you could help me
with that?

Yes.

I think I could do that.

Better?

Better.

(bell tolls)

(bell continues)

(gasps)

I am Major Magda Verger,

and this is your introduction
to Off-Canon work.

This sort of work
is forbidden to you,

but our enemies
won't hesitate to use it.

And neither will I.

Let me be clear:

you will not be learning how
to use Off-Canon work.

This is about learning to
recognize it,

and to resist it.

Ma'am, is there any way we
could turn that radiator down?

What radiator?

(laughs)

There are sounds all around us,
at all times.

Above and below
the range of our hearing.

And all sorts of nastiness

can be layered
into those sounds.

They can make you see,
and do, terrible things.

You must learn to recognize
these sounds, and resist them.

Learn to identify,

and destroy their source.

Ma'am, has the Army ever used
this sort of work in combat?

No.

This is the domain
of our enemies.

The Spree, in particular.

(grunts)

(gasps)

(coughing)

(ringing continues)

(birds chirping)

What is this?

How the hell did we get here?

(birds tweet)

It's an exercise.

What, so we need to
find a way out?

No, I don't think so.

(clocks ticking)

(alarm rings)

How many clocks
does one room need?

(voices overlap)

(alarms ring)

(discordant music)

What is going on?

(voices echo)

We need to find the source
of the working.

(echoing)

(musical chimes)

Found it!

(echoing)

That's not it.

(echoing continues)

(door creaks open)

No!

(clock chimes)

(thudding)

(chiming continues)

Stop!

(distorted chiming)

Why aren't you doing anything?

I am.

(gasps)

(door creaks open)

This way.

(echoing)

(laughter)

You guys-- you guys
are killing me.

I'm so glad we did this.

Me, too!

Bonnie: It's been great
to meet you both.

You know, the movement--
the movement has been

a bit of a boy's club.

-You know what I mean?
-(laughs)

You've never complained before.

Oh, I'm-- I'm not complaining.

I just think-- It's so nice
having some ladies around.

(Bonnie chuckles)

Speaking of the ladies,
that's where I'm headed.

Excuse me.

-Well, here's to new friends,
-Oh!

and to ridding the world
of monsters.

I can definitely drink to that.

-(giggling)
-Hm.

-Guys--
-Oh!

I'm gonna get us some more beer.

Be right back.

This has gone way too far.

Either you leave now, or I will.

I don't think that's a good
idea. You said it yourself.

There's a lot at stake here.

That does not mean
I want to work with the Army.

And I don't want to work with
the Spree,

but...

You sure you want to
pull the plug

just when it's
getting interesting?

(panting)

It's in here somewhere.

(eerie whispering)

I hate these things.

(child giggling)

Screw this place.

(giggling continues)

(muffled screams)

(grunting)

(giggling continues)

(grunting)

(screaming)

Can this be over now?

Behind you!

(echoing)

(muffled grunts)

(noises stop)

(Gregorio chuckles)

Magda:
Very good, Craven.

No one has ever beaten
The Dollhouse

on their first try before.

I could see it.

I could see... sound.

Really? Interesting.

Good job.

(chuckles)

It was the gas in here,

but, uh, what was the source
in the first room?

Th-there was no first room.

We were here the whole time.

Well done.

Wait.

where's Abigail and Raelle?

Abigail: Hello?

-Hello?!
-Abigail: Hello?!

Hello?!

-Hello?!
-Rae?

-Abigail?
-Rae?

You touched her.

And now you have to pay.

Izadora, please no!

Izadora, please!
Please no!

No!

Abigail!

You have no idea
what you've done.

The years of research
you've ruined!

Years of my life
that you stole!

Abigail! No!

(gasping)

You are an abomination,
and you will die!

Izadora: It's conclusive.

The phenomenon comes from
Raelle, and Raelle alone.

What else?

As we suspected,
it's protective.

The fear and the danger had to
be real in order to trigger it.

Thank you for
approving the test.

It was a risk worth taking.

How did Abigail handle it?

-She took a swing at me.
-Ha!

Not surprising.

Izadora:
She recovered fine,

but I think she's disappointed
not to be a part of this.

Well, Bellweathers are nothing
if not ambitious.

So you'll continue
testing Raelle?

Yes, ma'am.

Good. Be careful with her.

She just became one of
our greatest assets.

These people are all so
damn manipulative.

They couldn't care less
what happens to us.

That's part of being a soldier.

What they did to us today

has nothing to do with
being a soldier.

At this point, the only
people I trust are you two.

What does it feel like,
when it goes off?

This time it felt like me
wanting to kill Izadora.

It's not like anything
I've ever felt.

It's exciting...

but terrifying.

I felt incredibly powerful,

but also like it was
completely out of my control.

I'm sorry. I--I don't think
I can do it justice.

What happens next?

More tests, apparently.

Just what I was
hoping to avoid.

You okay?

Yeah, I, uh...

I'm just really tired.

I'm gonna go back to the room.

So it was catch and release?

I'm sorry.

I--I should have been
more careful.

What about her working alone?
Do you believe it?

I don't know.

It's always very personal
with Anacostia,

Maybe.

Stay the course.
But be careful, she's Army.

You can never really trust them.

Khalida, uh,
have you seen your brother?

It's my brother
that I want to talk about.

Sure.

I'm going to my room
if you want to talk there.

This will only take a moment.

I've agreed to let
Adil stay here

while I search for a home
for our people.

Oh, good.

I think he really likes it here.

I'm grateful to you,
Abigail,

and I don't want you
to get hurt.

But you have to understand

that this is not
a permanent situation.

In the end,

my brother will always
choose his people,

just as you will always
choose yours.

Okay, to truly
understand the Army,

and our place in the world,

you have to know our history.

And knowing is one of
the four principles, right?

Oh, we are going to have you
ready for Basic in no time.

So where do we start?

At the very beginning.
With Sarah Alder herself.

Is she really
three hundred years old?

Oh, she is.
More than, in fact.

My dad says that's why
he doesn't trust her.

He thinks that someone
who lives that long

couldn't really care
about regular people.

Sorry.

It's okay.

A lot of people
feel that way about her.

I didn't always
trust her myself.

Tally, what is it?

There's something wrong
with this photo.

What do you mean?

Tally: Some sort of working
has been used on it.

Do you-- do you see
a person there?

No. There's no one there.

Tally: It's her.

She's real.

And someone's trying
to hide her existence.

(closing theme plays)
