Previously on Defiance...

- The kid has the artifact?
- Luke had it with him when he died.

The young brother
has found it.

Kill him, Quentin! You have to.

There are good people here.

If you try to assimilate,
they will meet you halfway.

I will do as you ask.

You know,
these visions of yours,

- if they are somehow connected...
- "If"?

I'm not like you. I'm an alien.
And you made me afraid of that.

Razor rain.

Sukar!

Good morning, Defiance.

This is Alak Tarr
on Raider Radio broadcasting

from the top of the arch.

You just heard an earthpop
cover from Semma Cru.

Next up,

Lokyulo Dwoken with music for
a stormy night on Casti.

Looks like rain.

Good excuse for us
to hang up here and make out.

You smell amazing.

Alak, it's mayor Rosewater.

You know why I'm calling.

Yeah.

I listened to your album.

Wanted to disinfect
my record player after.

Listen, you little punk.
I'm the damn mayor.

Play Shiny happy people
or you're fired.

And don't forget to update
the weather.

Did you just hang up
on the mayor?

She was giving me attitude.

I had a weird conversation
with your mom yesterday.

She was talking about
a bathing ritual.

That.

She said it was
a ceremony for Newlyweds.

It's just some stupid
old custom from the home world.

The whole family together
in a bathtub?

It's something
the higher liros still do.

Look, I-I know it
probably sounds bizarre.

We're all supposed
to be naked?

No!

Not really.

The women wear these beads.

You didn't think I'd have
a problem with that?

It's just 20 minutes
out of your life.

Yes, it'll be weird,
but you'll be fine.

I promise.

It's getting nasty
out there.

Just finished rain-proofing
the school roof.

The principal's so grateful,
she kissed me on the lips.

At least I hope it was a "she."
You can't tell

the difference
with those Liberata.

What are you doing?

Did you remember
to pack your socks?

You know how grumpy you get
when your feet are cold.

I'm going to the badlands.
Sukar's in danger.

I had a vision.

You coming or not?

What's the problem, boss?

Nothing.

- Nicky.
- Rafe. Hello.

So sorry to drop in
at such an early hour.

I was taking baked goods to the
prisoners at camp reverie... outreach.

And then,
my roller just died.

And you need me
to check it out.

No.
I hailed the Sensoth garage.

I just need somewhere to wait
out this ghastly weather.

Well, make yourself at home.

Quentin.
Good morning, love.

You know I never could get a
handle on those darn rollers.

My man Birch
usually drives me.

Unfortunately, Birch is in Iowa
visiting family.

You know, that man
has eight brothers and sisters.

If you ask me,
that's not a family.

That's a litter.

He has allergies.

- Jered.
- I'll get it.

I've got this.

What a nice surprise.

I thought that you were here for
your husband's weekly collection.

He's out of town.

I'm here to secure your
professional services for my son.

I want to make sure
it's handled properly.

As you may have heard,

my son is marrying
Christie McCawley.

I... I've heard.

I want Alak educated with
regard to the eccentricities

of the Human female libido.

Making love to one of you
is enormously complicated.

We're really not complex.

What about this "G-spot"?

It's one of your major
erogenous zones,

yet it took your own scientists
centuries

to confirm it even existed.

It's not mysterious
if you know what you're doing.

Exactly why Alak needs you.

When Christie recounts
the events

of her wedding night
to her father,

he'll understand
that he married

his daughter
into the highest possible...

- You're laughing at me.
- Trust me.

No human girl
is going to ever want

to talk wedding sex
with her father,

especially when her father
is Rafe McCawley.

You've insulted me.

You have to admit,
it's just a little bit funny.

We have a saying,
"seeming is being."

Treating me like a fool
makes me one.

And I am no one's fool.

Wait.

Please.

I'm sorry.

You caught me off guard.

Do you think it's easy
for a woman

of my marusha
to come here?

I didn't mean to insult you,

so I'm not gonna let you
walk out of here mad.

Please,
let me buy you a drink.

There is a storm coming.
I don't have time.

Just one drink.

And then we can talk
about Alak.

Come on.

I saw those mountains
in my vision.

We're close.

How?

The sky opened
and took him.

I'm so sorry, kiddo.

We are preparing
the sinking ritual.

You are welcome to attend,
Little Wolf...

But your Human must go.

Nolan, look.

You say the sky took him.
You mean the storm.

Razor rain.

Yep.

Everyone in town thinks
it's a normal rainstorm.

We got to warn them.
Let's go.

I can't.

I'm staying for Sukar's
sinking ritual.

You can come back for me
when the storm passes.

I'll be all right.

Little Wolf is safe
in our care.

You have my word.

Be careful.

Do we have to talk
about this now?

We're not leaving this arch
until we talk about this.

Look. You Humans think too much.

Okay, you worry about
everything,

you're way too hung up
on your bodies.

And Castis are better?

Okay, you don't want
to do

the bathing ritual,
just tell my parents no.

How about
you tell them no?

How about you're the one
who talks to my parents,

and I'm the one
who spins awesome tunes?

Yep.

Alak, we have an emergency.

I need you to patch me
through to the entire town.

- You're on.
- This is lawkeeper Nolan.

The cloud approaching Defiance
is a razor rain storm.

For those of you who have never
experienced razor rain,

you can expect sudden barrages
of metal shrapnel,

fragments of the dead ships
floating in the arkbelt.

The squalls are unpredictable

and can form anywhere
at any time.

The metal fragments
can easily slice through

exposed skin
and conventional clothing.

Stay indoors.

Okay, Lambert,

I need you to supervise
the temporary shelters

- at the all-faith.
- Yes, ma'am.

Tommy, put together a strike
team for any emergency repairs.

Irzu's path flows
through us both.

There's work ahead.

We have to act quickly.
You must follow me.

I cannot wait.
I must go alone.

- Wait, where are you going?
- Defiance.

Shtako.

Bring it on!

I am not scared
of a little rain!

I am hot shtak...

Hey!

Quentin.

How are those allergies,

You want to tell me
what's going on?

My roller broke down.

And don't tell me
that your roller broke down.

All right.

All right.

I'm looking for Birch.

So he's not in Iowa

visiting his eight brothers
and sisters.

Last time I saw him,

he was on his way here

to break into your house.

Birch had
an interesting theory.

He thought
that your son, Luke,

rest his soul,

was involved
in the Volge attack,

that Luke and Ben Daris
were actually working together.

He came here to search
for evidence.

When he didn't return,

well, you can imagine
my concern.

That's quite a set of
balls you got there, Nicolette.

Coming from you, now,
that is a compliment.

If somebody broke
into my house,

- I certainly would know about it.
- I don't doubt that.

Were I to guess,

I'd say that you
walked in on Birch...

And you killed him.

Lighten up.
That was a joke.

The look on your face.

Honestly...

Do you think
there's somewhere here

that I could lie down
just for a bit?

Pilar's sewing room.

Upstairs.
You know where it is.

Of course.

What are you doing? Wait! Stop!

Gather as much cable
as you can.

- Quickly!
- I don't understand.

Just do it!

Get the hell out
of my store!

Sukar!

No.

No! Please, please! Don't!

Keep them out of my way.

Wrap it
and keep pressure on.

I need to call
the lawkeeper.

No!

- Hey!
- No!

You can't just go around
attacking people.

I'm getting Nolan.

This is a test of faith
for both of us.

- You came with me for a reason.
- To make sure you didn't hurt anyone.

Into the roller.
Now!

Why did you come
into the woods today?

I had a vision,
you in danger.

I had the same dream.

You appeared to me
before I died.

How is that possible?

You have visions
that come true.

You witnessed my resurrection,
you saw my wounds heal.

How can you still deny Irzu?

Finally, there is another like
you, another who's been chosen.

You are no longer alone.

We have a mission.

The question is,

can you accept that our mission
is a holy one?

Can you dare to believe
that you were chosen,

that you are special?

Come, Little Wolf.

Perhaps you can keep me
out of trouble.

The old lady knows.
She knows everything.

You know
what you have to do.

- No.
- Come on, bro.

Just like Birch.

- Squeeze her neck.
- No!

All right.

You want to tell me what
the hell happened to Birch?

- The truth.
- He broke in.

- He was looking for that thing.
- The thing you threw away?

You did throw it away,
didn't you?

Tell him you got rid
of it.

Yeah, I threw it away.

But Birch was really sure
it was here.

He attacked me.

I fought back.

I didn't mean to fight him
so hard.

- What'd you do with him?
- Dante's drop.

No one will ever find
his body.

And I scrubbed the living room
from top to bottom.

What about Nicky?

She's got no proof,
so we're fine.

Quentin, the son of a bitch
broke into our home.

Your sister could have been
here, could have been injured.

A man protects his home
and his family.

I'm proud of you, son.

This is Raider Radio, broadcasting
from the top of the arch,

riding out the razor rain.

We're gonna slow things down
now with some old-Earth jazz.

This one's from a Human
named Artie Winston,

recorded in Las Vegas long
before it became a prison.

I hope he's safe up there.

The arch survived
the terraformers.

There's nothing
to worry about.

You obviously don't have
a child.

He's practically an adult.

- He's a baby.
- He's getting married.

I've had plenty.

Was it really such
a bad idea?

Christie doesn't want
her fiance

with a prostitute.

I just want Alak
to be happy.

This whole time
we've been sitting here,

you've talked about
Datak, Alak...

But never yourself.

I don't want you
to get me wrong.

I love my life.

I love my boys,
both of them.

But?

Sometimes I do feel like
I'm living

in service to them.

And I want things too.

When was the last time that you
did something just for you?

My home world.

I was quite good at...
Never mind.

Tell me.

The closest word
in your language

would be... poetry,
I think.

You wrote poetry?

In Casti, it's not written.
It's spoken or sung.

So like a performer,
an actress.

I even had
a small, loyal following.

Until...
Until what?

- My father disapproved.
- Can I hear one?

- I don't remember any.
- Then write a new one.

Do something that's not
for Datak or Alak.

Do something
that is just for you.

Do you want to dance
with me?

May I have another drink,
please?

Of course.

Looks like
the town's secured.

We need to find any stragglers
and get them to safety.

- Tommy!
- Tommy?

Shtako.

I zigged
when I should've zagged.

How bad is it?

Doc Yewll will patch you up
good as new.

Tommy... hey!

Come here.

Doc? Doc!

Where the hell is she?

Doc! Doc?

Doc.

Where you in the storm?

Sukar attacked me.

Sukar?

He started tearing apart
my equipment.

I tried to stop him.

You sure it was Sukar?

The Spirit Riders told me
he was dead.

Well, for a dead guy,

he kicked the crap
out of me pretty good.

Grab the oxygen,
squeeze every five seconds.

Fragment passed through clean.
Your Irathient was with him.

She dressed my wound.

Irisa was with him?

Why didn't she stop him
from attacking you?

Doc, why didn't she stop him?

Lost his pulse.
CPR now!

- Is he gonna make it?
- Only if his luck changes.

Now that the rain is easing
up, I can be on my way.

And I think my roller problem
has resolved itself.

It's amazing how that happens,
isn't it?

- Taking a souvenir?
- This.

Yes.

I found a stain on this
pillow by the day bed.

Looks almost like blood,
doesn't it?

That's it, you're done.

Get out.

I know whose blood that is,

and I know something happened
to him,

and I want to know what.

You're right.
Birch is dead.

I don't take kindly
to trespassers,

so I shot him once in the head
and once in the chest.

That's what I do to people
who threaten my family.

You know, Rafe,

I believed
that you had killed him.

But if you had,

we both know
you would never admit to it

unless you were protecting
your family.

- Quentin!
- Shut up!

If you really want to know
what happened to your mother,

come and see me.

You show up here again,
and I will bury you!

Look.

I cut my finger upstairs.

Might I have a bandage?

No?

Well.

Never mind.

What'd she mean about mom?

Nicolette Riordan
is a miserable, old bitch

who likes to cause trouble.

You stay the hell away
from her.

- You hear me?
- Yeah.

The rain's let up.

I'm going home.

Christie, wait.

Look, I'll... I'll
tell my parents no

about the bathing ritual.

I'll say it was my call,

and I'll leave you out
of it completely.

Thank you.

- I think my dad will be cool.
- And your mom?

- Wha...
- Get out!

- The mayor said...
- Get out before you get hurt.

Okay.

He's breathing on his own.
That's good.

Okay, so let's go back
to the beginning.

You're certain it was Sukar
you saw?

Positive and Irisa
was with him.

He must be holding her
hostage or something.

Didn't look that way.

We just need to know
what Sukar was up to.

What did he take?

- Ark-brain interface.
- "Ark-brain"?

A lot of my gear is salvaged
from arkfalls and repurposed.

The module Sukar stole let's me
talk to my medical equipment.

Is it strong enough to contact
an ark fragment in orbit?

No, not enough power.

Listen.

I don't hear anything.

Yeah, that's the point.

Dead air.

Could Sukar hook up
this gizmo of yours

to the radio equipment
in the arch?

- And boost the signal?
- Yeah.

There's already
a powerful transmitter.

And the arch makes
a fine antenna.

If Sukar is sending
a signal into space,

he must think that there is
something there to receive it.

- shtako.
- What? What is it?

There's an ark fragment at the
top of the razor rain funnel.

Sukar is using my component to connect
to the ship's propulsion systems.

Looks like he's managed
to get the thrusters online.

- Why would he do that?
- I don't know.

But the ship's on
a direct course for Defiance.

If it hits,
we're all dead.

- That is the final adjustment.
- Now what?

We wait, Little Wolf.
When the time is right,

we flip the switch.

- Step away from the equipment.
- Put the gun down.

The gun's staying exactly
where it is.

He's bringing down
a huge chunk of ark

right into the town.

- Is that true?
- I don't know.

Irzu is a guiding spirit.
His path flows through us.

If for some reason,
he wishes to destroy Defiance,

it is for the greater good.

- It is time.
- Sukar!

- Stop!
- No!

Nolan!

One was a warning.

The next one goes through
your head.

Stop it!

You're just
gonna stand there?

There's wire on the table.

Tie him up! Do it!

He's trying to kill us all.

I don't believe that.

Tie his hands.

No! No!

It flows
through both of us.

What are you doing?

Finishing it.

I can't let you do that.

Shoot me if you have to.

He had faith,
and so do I.

It's changing direction.

Sukar saved Defiance,
and you killed him.

- I'm so sorry.
- You killed him!

Is he gonna wake up?

No. He's in a coma. And
he's not coming out of it.

Then what am I doing here?

Doc figured out
what was driving Sukar.

You need to understand.

It wasn't an Irathient God.

It was a bunch
of microscopic robots.

The Earth term
would be nanites.

The razor rain fragment
that impaled Sukar

was a piece of ark-brain.

The ark-brain was aware that
a big chunk of the ship

had fallen out of orbit

and was on a collision course
with the town.

It acted
on its primary mandate:

To preserve Votan life.

Only tool that it had
available was Sukar's body.

So the brain sent out
the nanites

to repair the tissue damage

and construct the device
that saved the town.

Tiny robots?

If they repair tissue damage,

maybe they'll fix
whatever's wrong with him.

They went dormant once
the town was saved.

I need to prepare you.
Sukar's brain is shut down.

His spine is severed.

You need to accept
that he's gone.

If you're so smart,
can you explain my visions?

How I saw Sukar die
in the rain?

Well, it wasn't because

of some ooga-booga
Irathient God.

Doc...

Ease up.

We have to think
of Sukar now, kiddo.

The Doc has drugs
that'll help ease his passing.

Help him on to Irzu's path.

You don't believe
in his God.

You don't believe in anything.

And if either of you
touch him,

I will cut you
with one of my blades.

Do you understand?
Do you understand?

We'll give you some space.

It's nice.

The tea?

Having a secret.

Something all to myself.

Thank you.

Can you imagine if...

Datak could see us right now?

Kenya, listen to me
very carefully.

If my husband ever found out
that we've been together,

he'd kill us both
without hesitation or mercy.

It's his loss.

I would've given him
the two-for-one deal.

Come here.
