(children laughing
and chatting in distance)

* Ooh, ooh *

* Wah *

It's Tuesday, right?

What is?

Today. I'm asking--
is it Tuesday?

This is a conversation
about time.

I try never to have
conversations about time.

* Ooh, ooh, ooh *

Whoops, my drink is empty.

LENNY:
Hmm.

Oh. Thanks.

*

Is something funny?

:
Yes.

We're trapped.

MAN :
A labyrinth.

Groovy.

NARRATOR:
There is a maze in the desert

carved from sand and rock.

A vast labyrinth of pathways
and corridors

a hundred miles long,
a thousand miles wide,

full of twists and dead ends.

Picture it-- a puzzle.

You walk,
and at the end of this maze

is a prize
just waiting to be discovered.

All you have to do
is find your way through.

Its walls and floors,
its twists and turns?

Good, because the maze
you've created in your mind

is itself the maze.

There is no desert,
no rock or sand.

There is only the idea of it.

But it's an idea
that will come to dominate

your every waking
and sleeping moment.

You're inside the maze now.

You cannot escape.

Welcome to madness.

-CLARK: It's okay.

Help them.

Who?

They're in the maze.

(indistinct announcement
over P.A.)

(indistinct announcement
continues over P.A.)

(woman speaks indistinctly
over P.A.)

David, can you hear me?

Listen, we have you now.
You're safe.

Welcome to Division 3.

MAN :
Reminder:

beware of ideas
that are not your own.

-Reminder: beware of ideas

that are not your own.

(footsteps approaching,
door opens)

KERRY:
They found him.

SYD:
Who?

KERRY:
I hate it when you do that.

SYD:
I'm practicing.

Who'd they find?

David.

(man speaking Japanese
over speaker)

ORWELL:
His blood pressure is 90/120.

CARY:
Just like the others.

ORWELL:
Is he infected?

I don't think so.

His brain function is consistent
with my previous scan.

ORWELL:
So why doesn't he respond?

CARY:
I don't know.

It's possible that
his mind is locked

in the astral plane.

(machine whirring,
rhythmic breathing)

We've seen it before.

Master says
if there is any risk

The telepath is infected,
we should terminate.

CLARK:
No.

His mind is strong.
He can resist it.

You'll see.

-This is ridiculous.

-ORWELL: Dr. Loudermilk.
-CARY: David.

-David.

David.

(man speaking indistinctly
over speaker)

MAN :
702.

CARY: David, if you can hear me,
speak to me.

(man speaking indistinctly
over speaker)

David.

Kerry!

Hey, boys.

Retreat.

(alarm stops,
weapons whoosh down)

David, if you can hear me,
I need you to say something.

Do you have any waffles?

MAN :
Announcement four.

Any shift in reality
may signal an attack.

If you feel something,
say something.

What are we so afraid of?

Everybody here,
this whole building--

that's all I can hear.

Where are we, by the way?

What happened to Summerland?

This is Division 3.

Headquarters.

Is there a guy with, like, a...

a basket on his head?

Admiral Fukyama.

He's the... boss.

Our boss.

Hmm.

What do...
what does that mean?

We work for Division 3 now.

Hmm?
Since when?

Wait. Were there...

women with mustaches, singing?

After the Lazarus Affair,

the divisions were created
to study and defend against

what people saw as
a new mutant threat.

Division 1 is global command
and communications.

Division 2 is pure science--

genetics, technology.

Division 3 is the tip
of the spear.

We do the day-to-day
boots-on-the-ground engagement.

(whirring,
indistinct male voice over P.A.)

(indistinct voice over P.A.,
rhythmic grunting)

After you left, Syd and Melanie

convinced the leadership
that mutants themselves

aren't a threat.

Most of us are... harmless.

We just want to live
our lives in peace.

(indistinct male voice
over P.A.)

So we joined Division 3

and started working together
to fight our real enemies.

Your friend, the Shadow King,

he's been priority one
since the day you...

left.

Well... you mean
since yesterday.

(indistinct female voice
over P.A.)

What's the last thing
you remember?

Uh...

Uh...

Well, Farouk escaped

in Oliver's body,

and we were--
Syd and I were on the balcony.

And I could sense him
heading south.

South.

And then there was an orb.

-SYD: No!

-Syd!

And it zapped me with,
like, a-a-a ray.

:
Why are they children?

Under a certain age,
we can't be infected.

No one knows why.

Infected?
With

We'll...

get to that.

But you're saying
you got no memories at all

after leaving Summerland?

No. Well, I-I remember...

trees, I guess, and...

being on a roof downtown, and...

...dancing?

Then there's flashes...

David, that was...

MAN :
New symptom alert.

Unexplained malaise.

We'll talk later.

Okay.

-DAVID 2: Calm down.

-DAVID 1: I think he knows.
-DAVID 2: He doesn't know.

DAVID 1: Then why'd he leave?
That was weird.

Are you the magic man?

Hey.

Huh.

You look the same.

Thanks.
You look great.

SYD:
You left me.

DAVID:
I didn't mean to.

I was taken.

I'm sorry if I scared you.

We thought you were dead.

When?

For about a year.

-For about...
-362 days,

if we're being precise.

I found a gray hair.

I like cherry pie now.

So...

Where you been?

Well, I-I was with you,
and then...

I was inside the sphere
and the...

But that was yesterday,
wasn't it?

I used to play
these games with myself.

If I can hold my breath

until the kettle whistles,

he's alive.

Syd.

What?

Can I kiss you?

You better.

("We Love You"
by The Rolling Stones playing)

* We don't care if you *

* Only love we *

* We don't care
if you only love we *

* Ah! *

SYD:
He's still inside Oliver.

We know that.

There have been sightings
around the world.

He's looking for something.

We think.

We came close to finding him
a couple of times.

Then we got distracted
by this thing.

The Catalyst.

We thought it was
a weapon at first.

Some kind of biological agent.

Normal people would...

freeze like statues,

except for that creepy thing
they do with their teeth.

Then we realized,
every time it happened,

Oliver was there.

(garbled radio chatter,
teeth chattering)

SYD: We think
he's infecting people somehow.

It's not a virus,

not a physical virus.

Cary thinks it's...

psychological.

MAN :
Announcement two.

Know your symptoms.

Confusion.

Irritability.

Obsessive thoughts.

Repetitive sounds.

Repetitive
sounds.

Hopelessness.

Despair.

If you feel any
of these symptoms,

tell your mental monitor
at once.

Syd.

Syd.

Sit.

So...

He's back.

This morning. He looks good.

Hmm. Oh, they always do.

Our men,

with all their in, out.

In, out.

All their important
things to do.

"World's not gonna
save itself, dear."

And off they go.

A day, a month.

A year.

Forever.

Admiral Fukyama asked if you're
ready to get back to work.

-We need you.
-It's how they control us.

Their absence...

distracts us from our lives,

the things that matter.

I'm not sure
what you're trying...

Course, it's never their fault,
our men.

God forbid

we should have
a feeling about it.

What choice do they have?

Destiny calls.

What kind of bitches would we be
to stand in their way?

Do you know what
the saddest words are

in the English language?

"Vacant lot."

Don't know why.

Vacant lot.

I'm gonna...

Cary finished the tank.

David's gonna find Oliver,
and he's gonna bring him home.

You'll see.

Here's what they don't tell you.

After they come back...

things are never the same.

("I Would for You"
by Jane's Addiction playing)

* Oh, baby *

* I'm so tired *

* The man from the government *

* The man from the tax report *

* The man in the public school *

* The man owns the golden rule *

* Yeah, I'm everybody's slave *

* I made you my slave *

* My slave, my slave,
my slave, my slave... *

* You said this I do for you *

* If it would help *

* To give the world back *

* What it gave *

* Then I would *

* Oh, oh *

* I would *

* I would *

* I would for you. *

(insects chirping and trilling,
water gurgling)

NARRATOR: And now we must speak
of Zhuang Zhou,

who fell asleep one day
and dreamed he was a butterfly.

For hours, he fluttered
in the warm winter sun,

until he no longer remembered
he was Zhuang Zhou.

Suddenly he awoke,
and he was Zhuang Zhou again.

But in that moment,
he didn't know.

Was he Zhuang Zhou who had
dreamt he was a butterfly,

or a butterfly who was dreaming
he was Zhuang Zhou?

A delusion starts
like any other idea, as an egg.

Identical on the outside,
perfectly formed.

From the shell, you'd never
know anything was wrong.

It's what's inside
that matters.

Albert A had an idea.

One day, as he was walking,
he stumbled.

And for a moment,

it seemed that his right leg
didn't belong to him.

This is how it begins.

The leg was clearly Albert's.

It was attached to his body,
and when he pricked it,

he felt pain.

But despite that,
the idea grew.

Such is the power of an idea.

With every day that passed,

Albert became
more and more certain

-that this was not his leg.

He decided
he didn't want it anymore.

And so one day, he went
to the hardware store.

You see, an idea alone
isn't enough.

We have ideas all the time,

random thoughts and theories.

-Most die...

...before they can grow.

For a delusion to thrive,

other, more rational ideas
must be rejected,

destroyed.

Only then can
the delusion blossom...

...into full-blown psychosis.

(indistinct chatter in distance,
people marching)

MAN:
David...

PTONOMY: What's the last thing
you remember?

-LENNY: Hey, sexy. -SYD:
What happened in the nightclub?

PTONOMY: What's the last thing
you remember?

WOMAN :
Reminder:

a loss of meaning
is not normal.

Beware of ideas
that are not your own.

Settling in?

You know what I realized?

I have no idea
what he looks like.

-Amahl Farouk.
-Right.

He wears so many masks.

There isn't much.

Uh, some sketches, rumors,

a few Egyptian poems.

We think he came to be sometime
in the early 1800s in Morocco.

He came to be?

Well, he's a mutation, like you,
but you-you know

how these things get blown
out of proportion.

We're a superstitious animal,

always turning the weather
into acts of God.

Like, probably, the Devil
was just some guy named Lucifer

who beat up kids
for their Lunchables,

and then a few hundred
years later...

Wait. He's really that old?

WOMAN :
New symptom alert.

A strong urge to confess.

I've been, uh, giving you
some breathing room,

but there's
an official conversation

that we need to have.

Official?

I heard your story.

You were gone for a year, but
it only felt like a few hours.

So we're gonna run some tests
and carbon-date you,

like you would a fossil,
see what your cells say.

You think I'm lying?

You like soap operas?

My mother had leukemia
when I was a kid

and she was in bed a lot.

Kept me home from school,
so I could keep her company.

It was a-a big king-size bed.

We'd eat ice cream,
watch soap operas.

Anyway, we had a drinking game,
except with ice cream--

any time somebody had
an evil twin or amnesia,

we would eat ice cream.

I'm not lying.

Hold on.

(indistinct male voice
over P.A.)

Sorry, what were you saying?

You know I can read your mind.

It was good to see you.

I was kind of a fat kid
on account of all the ice cream.

My mom was so nice, though.

She used to call me "husky."

Died when I was ten.

I'm supposed to tell you
to go and see Admiral Fukyama.

They're eager to talk to you.

Wait... they?

WOMAN :
New symptom alert.

A sudden decrease...

Hello.

Hi.

I'm David.

: Weird.
-DAVID 2: Read his mind.

-DAVID 2: Their mind, whatever.

VERMILLION 1:
Our mind cannot be read.

VERMILLION 3:
When we were a boy,

we had the machine
put into our head.

For days we screamed.

The pain was in the volcano,

puncturing the molten core.

The device very deep
in our cerebral cortex,

like nails from a bomb
in a public place.

Hardware inside software.

And now we are this.

The machine that bleeds.

The organizing principle.

Okay, well...

I've been someplace else,
and now I'm here.

And we're gonna find him,
the Shadow King,

and put a stop to all this.

He is part of you.

DAVID 1:
What do they know?

DAVID 2:
Assume everything. Be honest.

Well, we were together
a long time.

I can still... sense him,

still feel him, but...

right now I think
he's-he's hiding from me,

so if there's a way you could...

boost my signal...

We have anticipated this.

Mr. Loudermilk has
developed a device...

To help you recover your
memories and find Farouk.

Cary. Good.
That's... good.

So... when we find him,

the... Shadow King,

what are you gonna do?

He will be terminated.

Right, but he's in the body
of a friend of mine.

The scientist, Oliver Bird.

DAVID:
Yes, Oliver.

A really... He's a good guy.
You'd like him,

if that's...

something you do.

Either way, he's a hostage,

and we are not gonna
kill the hostage.

The body must also be destroyed.

-The body of Amahl Farouk.

His physical form.

Many decades ago it was hidden.

After his defeat
on the astral plane.

By my father.

Farouk's mind is strong,

but the mutations are genetic,
meaning "of the genes."

Physical, not mental.

-On its own,

the Shadow King's mind
is powerful.

But were he to rejoin his body,
he would be...

Unstoppable.

So, where is it?

This information is not

available to us
at the present time.

We are looking,
as is the Shadow King.

So, you're saying it's a race.

We're in a race.

The male Loudermilk
is waiting in his lab.

Do not fail.

How do you feel
about small spaces?

I'm against them.

And when I say the words
pitch black...

What exactly are you
gonna do to me?

In order to boost
your psychic abilities,

I've created an
amplification chamber.

DAVID:
No.

The fluid is 80% glucose,

15% bicarbonate,

and it's 5% strawberry extract.

-Why...
-It's for conductivity.

Also to give it a pleasant
aroma and taste,

in case you should swallow any,
which, do not swallow any.

So, I'm supposed to find
the Shadow King

from inside a daiquiri?

While you're in the tank,
I'll be using the resonator

to bring up specific
frequencies.

We can communicate,
so if you see something,

or if you want me to try
a different frequency,

you just let me know.

Okay.

What?

Clothes off, handsome.

Yes. In order for
the connectivity

to be at maximum efficiency,
we do need

full exothermal contact.

So, get naked.

Very funny.

-We've talked about this.

You make people uncomfortable.

Uncom-- I make people
uncomfortable?

You spent Wednesday walking
around without pants on.

How do I make people
uncomfortable?

All right, in.
That's-- in, in!

No, I don't-- I don't
understand how...

I'm so sorry about that.

We're right outside.

This is a bad idea.

Ju-Just open your mind.

Open my mind. Right.

Opening mind.

Ping me if he finds something.
Cary?

Yeah.

CARY:
Okay, here we go.

:
All right, David,

let's take this for a spin.

DAVID :
You've used this before, right?

CARY: Yes, but only
in a theoretical sense.

DAVID:
What does that mean?

You believe him?

Which part?

It's David.

That much I know.

And I saw memories.

He says he doesn't remember,
but I saw memories.

SYD:
A year of memories?

A few images.

He was in the nightclub.

I know.
You found him there.

He was there
when Oliver was there.

They were there together.

SYD:
Doing what?

Dancing.

So, you think...

Maybe the Shadow King
still has ahold of him.

No.

You still trust him?

He's my man.

CARY :
Orange 50, orange 20, red.

Red 15.

-Ah.

Oh, sorry.
Okay, I'll-I'll dial it in.

DAVID:
Slightly.

I can work with slightly.

Remember, keep an

open mind.

-DAVID: Cary...

DAVID :
Cary...

GIRL:
Duck, duck,

-duck, duck, duck, duck,

-goose.

children laughing)

echoing, fading)

PTONOMY: What's the last thing

Farouk escaped.

MAN :
New symptom alert.

A strong urge to confess.

New symptom alert.

A strong urge to confess.

David?

I think I need to lie down.

Oof.

(indistinct radio chatter,
bird singing)

I'll clear it off.

No, that's...

There's clothes for you
in the lockers.

So, any luck finding Farouk?

No, I...

I couldn't see him.

What's it like in there?

What did you see?

Eh, nothing, really,

just... just a lot
of random things.

Just... noise.

You're keeping secrets.

What?

I know you.

I used to.

There's things
you're not saying.

Syd, it's...

I-I know it's...

I know it's hard.

You know, so much time
has passed for you, and...

for me, I just saw you,
yesterday,

so try to remember:
I'm the same.

You're the one who's...

You know, maybe you're right.
This is...

I...

This... this is all...

this...

This is a lot to process.

It's the second time.

-That you left.

There was Amy, the rescue.
Remember?

-Oh...

You promised me you wouldn't,
and then you did.

That was...

Lenny, Farouk...
I...

I wasn't in control.

-They...
-So I'm...

just wondering

how long till you leave...
again?

Close your eyes.

Come on.

Okay, now, look.

*

-I had Cary make it,

when I was in the tank.

It's beautiful.

It's no ordinary compass.

Watch.

-Just head in the direction

it is pointing,
and I'll be there.

Hmm.

If we get lost,
we get lost together.

You promise:

no secrets.

No secrets.

PTONOMY: What's the last thing
you remember?

Before the club?

What's the last thing
you remember?

No!

DAVID:
Let me out!

Help me!

Let me out!

Help me!

Syd!

Syd.

Where...

Where are you?

No sound. Great.

That's perfect.

Whoa.

What is that, an eight?

Oh, it's the hour-hourglass.

It's "time."

Time is running out.

Time's running out.

Me?

Gift?

Gift. You have a gift for me.

No.

Present.

Me.

I'm in the present.

I'm good at this.

Me... arrow...

you.

Clock.

Time.

Arrow.

Arrow of time.

Arrow of time.

I'm in the present,
so you're in the future.

You're in the future.

Wait...

You're in the future?

Crown. King.

Shadow King.

Farouk.

Body.

He's-he's trying
to find his body.

"Him"?

Help Farouk find his body?

Why would I do that?

Wait, this is you?

The orb

Syd.

Is somebody there, Syd?

Talk to me, Syd.
