[MACLAREN]: Previously, on Travelers...

- FBI. - Ted Bishop.

[TREVOR]: Flight 329 to Washington goes down

at 2:53 P.M.

[CRASHING]

You're not the E.M.T. team I was expecting.

Traveler 3569, welcome to the 21st.

You seen my eyedrops?

What's going on, Man?

Give me back my drops.

Here. It's a good thing

these are helping with your addiction, huh?

- I know. - What?

That you're pregnant.

I'm just trying to find the missing pieces.

Maybe someone is best defined

by how they affect the people around them.

[♪]

"Helix"?

"Sandstorm."

Prove it.

[♪]

_

Did you bring it?

Did you bring it?

Keep it cool and dry.

We shouldn't contact each other

on the forums anymore.

Kill the trail here.

He's taken care of.

- Copy. - Thanks.

[TREVOR]: Do you know how to handle that?

It's safe to walk around with, right?

It's stable. Wouldn't call it safe.

What does that mean?

That means

don't drop it, don't shake it,

don't expose it to heat, don't get it wet.

I know what I'm doing, asshole.

- [PHILIP]: She's pleasant. - [TREVOR]: I can tell.

Reminds me of your girlfriend.

This is what I asked you

to build, right?

I did a lot of research.

To your exact specifications.

Then we're good.

Long as you don't take it through a metal detector.

[MARCY]: Trevor, don't scare her away.

Why do you care?

Because I made it.

You do something stupid

and blow yourself up

trying to get through security...

[PHILIP]: Easy!

...It might come back on me.

You don't have to worry about that.

I should go after her.

Don't do it.

Marcy's right.

We don't want to push her too hard.

Hey, I'm not trying to push her at all,

but that's the mission that the Director assigned us.

[PHILIP]: We'll just have to try again.

[LOCKS CLICKING]

Agent MacLaren.

Congressman Bishop.

We meet again.

You met my host.

We never actually met because you improvised.

Almost got yourself killed in the process,

and left me stranded, waiting for another team.

Gee, I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

There was an extenuating circumstance.

Always is, with you.

I'm amazed you're assigned any missions at all,

let alone this one.

This one?

Well, I'm assuming

it's not just to drive you around.

[CASE CLASPS CLACK]

Your mission

is to perform an assassination.

Of who?

Me.

Hi, Chloe.

It's your boyfriend!

Babysitting my little sister today.

Do you want to play Space Kebab?

He's not your boyfriend, he's mine.

You can play, though, if you don't tell Mom.

Want to play something else?

I can't stay,

I just came for some drops.

You're burning through 'em fast.

We are.

That's fair.

Maybe we can play a little.

[LINE RINGING]

Hi, this is David. Leave a mess...

[BEEP]

[KNOCKS]

[KAT]: It's open!

Hey!

Hey, hey. Let... Leave that.

I'm no stranger to moving furniture.

Yeah, I know,

but you shouldn't be overdoing it.

Part of my deal with Nicole

is to redecorate this place while she's gone...

which... looks like it could be a while, by the way.

She's loving it in London, so yay.

You really like it here, huh, in this space?

Are you kidding?

It's the kind of place I fantasized about living in,

until I met you.

You don't think I'd go for something like this?

[LAUGHS] No.

Huh.

There's a unit for sale in this building.

Let's put in an offer.

I'm serious!

But you love our old house.

It's a house.

Without you living there, it's an empty house.

I say we downsize.

With the baby coming, I need more space, not less.

- Oh. - What?

Oh, come here.

Can you feel that?

I can't believe we're doing this.

What?

You said "we".

I got all excited.

I'm not ready for you to move in, Grant.

Well, a house doesn't get sold in a day.

And we're leaving the other one behind

either way, right?

I'm just...

thinking about the future.

[♪]

Maybe I should've gone after her.

She comes to this cafe

almost every day, just after 10:00.

Okay, she's coming down Bellwood.

She's close.

[RADAR PINGING]

She's stopped just outside.

Copy.

[♪]

What are you doing here?

Huh?

Are you following me?

[SCOFFS] How?

I've been here for two hours.

Are you following me?

No. But that's my spot.

I was here first.

Sit there.

Whatever. Whatever.

[KEYS CLACKING]

Can I help you... "SandStorm"?

Sounds so stupid when you say it out loud.

Yeah, it does.

I'm Trevor.

Abby.

Galston Agriculture fan?

Mm-mm. Not a fan. Definitely.

Why?

They stomp out the competition,

they stall unions, file nuisance claims,

fund anti-environmental lobbyists.

Other than that,

they're model corporate citizens.

Okay, it's way worse than that.

[CHAIR RUMBLING]

[KEYS CLACKING]

Look at the bottom.

"Seed C589,

"scheduled for limited release and production.

Patent pending."

That's all it says.

It's an experimental crop that's able

to extract more nutrients from the soil

in order to yield a larger harvest,

by 20% to 30%.

And what's wrong with that?

It's never been tested in the field.

They don't know the limits

of how many nutrients C589 will pull from the soil.

It's not about sustainability, it's about profit,

and for the sake of a few years of record harvests,

this crop could decimate

all the farmland that it grows in.

A famine isn't just some biblical event.

No, I know. It happens.

They already have a prototype strain ready to go.

When?

This week.

Well, it would have to pass FDA regulations.

Not if Bill 939 gets passed,

which allows corporations bypass the regulatory process

for standard testing.

They want to get it to market ahead of their competition.

How do you know all of this?

Not here.

Jeff?

Anyone home?

[LOCKS DOOR]

I was pretty excited when I got the internship.

I thought I could take 'em down

from the inside, you know?

I wrote to our congress I wrote to our senator,

I sent reports to the FDA of their violations.

I even tried blackmailing

one of their private investors.

You go, girl!

[LAUGHS] You did not just say that.

Um, anyway, I got just moved

from the labs down to the basement,

so all I do now is archive old paperwork.

So, I'm not waiting around anymore.

What does that mean?

I still have access to the building

and I have what I need to do something about it.

That's serious shit you're talking, Abby.

It's also a big job for one person.

I can do it.

You don't think I can do it?

You're not hearing me.

[TV NEWS PLAYING]

...And while House and Senate Democrats

are deeply divided on this issue,

Congressman Ted Bishop has taken a hard stand

against it.

[TED BISHOP]: We are gonna stop Bill 939.

We're gonna get the Senate to hear us...

that we will strike down this destructive bill,

and we will succeed.

This is it.

Whoa... Holy shit.

This place is...

- Hey. - Hello.

Abby, Philip.

My hacker friend I was telling you about.

Oh. What'd he say?

Uh, you're the best,

I can trust you,

and you want to help.

There's so much more to me.

You guys live here?

Mi Casa.

I still have a room at my parents' house,

but I'm here a lot.

Just the two of you?

And Poppy.

His pet turtle.

You do know they can carry

salmonella bacteria, right?

Noted.

[TREVOR, CHUCKLES]: Okay.

Our system is completely secure, so go ahead and plug in.

[KEYS CLACK, BEEP]

No shame in a little porn. I won't judge.

Rule 34.

She's hilarious. Where'd you find her?

She found me.

These are the project work files

on C589 I managed to swipe.

I've gone through some of it,

but a lot of it's encrypted.

What's the timeline we're working on here?

The Bill 939 vote is tomorrow.

Galston won't waste time.

The labs are always empty

between 11:00 and 1:00 for lunch.

That's our window.

[DOCTOR]: The heartbeat sounds good.

The kidney, liver, brain, all developing very well.

This is just what we want to see at this stage.

Now, there was one area of concern that we saw.

This dark spot here, behind the placenta.

What is it?

Too early to say for sure,

but we would be concerned if it were a blood clot.

Have you experienced any spotting,

any contractions recently?

No.

What would a clot mean?

It could be the early signs

of a placental abruption.

But it could be nothing?

Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.

There's no need for either of you

to worry at this time.

But given your age and your history,

we're gonna... gonna keep a close eye on this.

So, best to make an appointment

with my office,

come back and see me in two weeks. Okay?

Yeah.

The doctor said it might not be anything.

I know what the doctor said,

and I've been through this before.

That's not going to happen this time.

That's not in your power.

Oh, shit!

I left my phone in there.

Wait for me in the car. I'll be two minutes.

Thank you.

Marcy? You got a minute?

I-I didn't want to have this conversation over com.

What?

I need a favor.

Yeah, of course.

One that breaks protocol.

I need you to understand

this happened the night

we were all under

the effect of the anti-toxin.

Which you don't remember.

We briefed you on the Helios mission,

this was the night after...

we were all affected.

Okay.

Well, my wife had helped to arrange

a surprise party for me,

and I-I didn't realize the effect the drug was having,

I consumed too much alcohol.

You broke protocol 4?

And that puts her at, what?

20 weeks?

Something like that. This is not her fault.

No, it isn't. It's yours.

- I know. - What were you thinking?

I... wasn't, obviously.

All right. Well, it'd probably still be best

if you took her to a clinic.

The procedure's safe, even at this stage.

She's going through with it.

It's her decision to make.

Well, talk her out of it.

I'm not going to do that.

No.

We just came from the ultrasound.

There's a problem. Placental abruption?

Yeah.

That's serious in any century.

Yeah, but you could improve her odds

of carrying the baby to term, right?

There is a drug I could technically synthesize, yes,

but you know that I can't do that.

I'm asking you to think about it.

I need to get back to work.

Hey, Marcy.

Dr. Barker.

Uh, so is he your, uh...?

My boyfriend? No.

Excuse me.

Would you like to go to dinner sometime?

Sure.

When?

How about... How about this weekend?

How about now?

I just got to go change.

Oh...

Okay, then.

I'll be giving my speech from here.

Yeah. There's a decent vantage point.

From which to shoot me?

That's why we're here.

I was told there'll be a distraction at 11:27 A.M.

[MACLAREN]: Yeah, we're aware of that.

It's blocks away, but the sound should carry.

Why don't you check out your spot?

You all right?

This is plan "B".

My original mission from the director

was a little more long-term.

Rise in the ranks of government, maybe to high office.

Unfortunately, my host has a heart condition

the Director wasn't aware of.

You've still done great things as a congressman,

things that your host wouldn't have done.

Been paying attention, have you?

Felt I had a vested interest.

The Director has fattened me up

like a lamb being led to the slaughter.

All I've done in the short time I've been here

is set myself up to become a martyr.

We all have our part in the grand plan.

Yeah, yeah, it is what it is.

Oh, I want to ask...

that woman in the stasis field...

What was she to you? Worth risking your life for?

Someone I care about

that was not supposed to be on the plane that day.

She made it?

Yeah. She did.

Well, that makes one of us.

[HUFFS BITTERLY]

It'll be quick, right?

♪

Thank you.

Yeah.

Um... to courage.

To courage.

So...

what drew you to health care?

God, that is an awful question

to lead with.

I am so sorry.

No. It's... It's fine.

No, no. It's, uh...

I don't know what it is about you.

You're so...

At some point, I'm gonna need you finish that sentence.

Every male in the entire hospital

would be jealous of me, if they knew where I was.

This must be a really good restaurant, then.

[LAUGHS]

I mean, with you.

Obviously.

Uh, well, I got into health care

because, in the future,

it's gonna be more important than ever.

I know.

And we're just on the cusp of so many amazing things.

Mm.

Why'd you become a doctor?

Um, similar reasons to you, really.

I want to be part of the changes that are coming.

Think of what we're able to do now

that we couldn't even 10, 15 years ago.

Brain mapping, stem cell research,

robotically-assisted surgeries.

Limitless ways to help people.

I mean, isn't that what it's all about?

You have a very positive view of the future.

Yeah, don't you?

I do.

Here you go.

Thanks.

What are you writing?

It's like a mission statement.

I want people to know why we're doing this.

You don't think that bombing a research lab

makes a statement?

I don't want people to think

that I'm some radical.

There's a point to this.

Yeah, that's why we're helping you.

I've been doing some reading.

C589 is worse than you think.

How?

There are properties in the genetic mutation of the seed

that are monophyletic.

Mono... what?

It means that the organisms descend

from the same common ancestor.

In this case, the kudzu...

a weed known for completely taking over a territory.

So if farmers start using C589...

Not only will it deplete the soil of nutrients,

it will spread.

Rapidly.

With its genetic resistance to pesticides,

C589 could become impossible to contain.

He's right.

All arable land on the planet could be choked out in decades.

You believe in humanity.

You believe that our future's at stake.

That's not spiritual.

So what went wrong?

It was deactivated remotely.

What?

I wasn't gonna let him die for nothing.

Like Abby?

It wasn't for nothing,

or we wouldn't have been given the mission!

Galston's competition

is weeks away from their own prototype.

And come on, people.

Ted Bishop's assassination

isn't gonna inspire a movement.

That's not for you to decide.

Well, I did. And it's done.

We could easily have lost one team member

to save another.

Without that diversion,

Carly was completely exposed after she fired.

You hung me out to dry.

And I see you made it.

That's not the point, Philip!

You undermined a direct order...

You mean like the order the Director gave you?

'Cause, if memory serves... and hey, it usually does...

you were given explicit order.

"Kill 3468."

But hey, maybe she just hasn't gotten around to it.

This isn't funny.

You look me in the eye and you tell me

I am the only one on this team

who's improvised.

Tell me.

I am the only one

that's broken the rules.

[♪]

I can hack into Galston

and wipe all their data on C589.

We can even get another bomb in there.

But there are other ways to do this.

And if we get the mission,

then that's what we'll do.

It's out of our hands now.

Protocol 5 until further notice.

I should add,

despite my apparent protestations to the contrary,

I'm very glad you're still alive.

Thank you.

You too.

Get me one of her folic acid pills.

If we're going to swap out a medication
