All language subtitles for Mutant X [1x02] - I Scream the Body Electric

One thing's for sure;

it's getting weirder
out there every day.

No need to run anymore, emma.

You're among friends.

I have been mandated to create
the genetic security agency

to protect the world
from this rapacious menace.

A teenage
girl falls six stories,
then walks away unscathed.

Help me.

We can't let someone with
her ability to manipulate the

feelings of others become
the tool of our worst nightmare.

She's headed for the skycourse.

This is not good.

No, it's not, is it?

Brennan.

Stop.

Let them go.

This isn't over yet.

I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean to
cause all this trouble.

And now you understand
the danger we're all in.

Attempting to escape
is a waste of time.

You're still an hour
off your game, mr mulwray.

Now, you keep playing hard
to get and you're in for the

world's worst nightmare.

Don't be so sure about that.

Any nightmare
you can dish out will
be like a sweet dream to me.

That's enough, mr thorne.

I'd prefer him in one piece.

You want strange?

I'll give you strange.

We get a call
on the hotline about a guy
who controls electricity.

She's talking about brennan.

Next thing you know,
a guy fitting that description

runs rampant downtown.

Silent record.

This is becoming
tiresome, emma.

Why did we have
to rescue you again?

I've apologized
a dozen times, adam.

What do i have to say
to convince you i'm sorry?

I'm sure that you're
sincere in your regrets.

But your actions continue
to put us in jeopardy.

I'm just
confused and afraid.

We're all afraid.

But you don't
have to walk around
constantly assaulted by

other people's
feelings and terrors.

You're right.

Maybe it's
time that you looked
at your world from a

different perspective.

And you take what
you see as a problem and
you make it a solution.

That's what
saved my life.

You know, it's
not like we were thrilled to
be so different, you know?

But with a little work, being
a new mutant can be fabulous.

Or you can
end up like thorne.

Well, i'll take
fabulous anytime.

Breedlove's death has set events
in motion that are going to

change our lives forever.

This is only the beginning.

What about brennan?

We'll do whatever
we can to get him out.

Assuming he still
wants to get out.

You let
ms delauro get away.

Yes.

That's primarily due
to mr mulwray's interference.

However, now we can
use mulwray to entrap her.

You always find the positive
in a negative, mr thorne.

It's your responsibility to
make something of mr mulwray.

But rather than expending all
our resources in searching for

all these lost souls, let's find
one to bring the others to us.

So, what's this all about?

With everything that's
been hitting the fan lately,

we wanted you all to be able
to get out at a moment's notice.

You know,
i'm still not sure why
adam thinks it's necessary

to set up
a second safe house.

Yeah, the one behind
my book store's fine.

Absolutely.

But it never hurts
to be too careful.

We've been waiting to meet you
for a long time, mr mulwray.

Oh, yeah, is that right?

You and ms delauro
are high on my...

shopping
list of anomalies.

Well, you know, it feels
so good to be so wanted.

Mr eckhart does
not have time for sarcasm.

This is going to hurt.

Now, we've just implanted
you with a device called

a sub-dermal governor.

Something my people created
especially for people like you.

It connects us
directly with your dna.

So that whenever you use
your abilities without our

approval,
the pain is debilitating.

Bring it on.

Well, alright then mr mulwray.

Let's see what you're made of.

Release him.

Well, give us your best shot.

Weli...

i gather we all have a better
idea of just what you can take.

Don't you think?

This is your chance to
redeem a misspent life.

An opportunity
to protect the world
from genetic terrorism

as an operative of the
genetic security agency.

Mr thorne will
give you the details.

You know, i think
the two of us should
just try to get along.

If you believe that,
you're crazier than he is.

See,
there's a second feature which
mr eckhart neglected to mention.

I have the ability to
turn it both on... and off.

I can give you
a little jolt from time to
time to keep you in line.

You coming?

What do i know
about being a hero?

I sell misses and petites,
for heaven's sakes.

And i gather
you were unusually good at
it, because of your gifts.

I'll admit it, i did manipulate
customers occasionally.

Often.

Alright,
every chance i got but
it didn't always work.

When did
you first realize that
you had these gifts?

When i was a kid.

Maybe five.

I was at this rock
festival with my parents.

I got separated from them.

Totally lost in the crowd.

They were both
on the flaky side.

When i realized
they were gone,

i closed
my eyes and it was

like i saw my
parents in a dream.

So what you're saying
is you found them?

Yeah, but they
figured they'd found me.

They ran off
when i was ten and left
me in a foster home.

By that time,
i didn't care if
they found me or not.

Hmm.

Mr eckhart, this is the man you
requested for your interview.

My name
is mason eckhart.

Ah, you've heard of me.

I gather you're a telepath.

Please, mr bishop,
we have no secrets here.

Answer the question.

I'm an esper.

Fine.

Now, tell me what you
see when you read my mind.

Unless you'd like me to
have mr thorne convince you.

Now that you know
that everything you've
heard about me is true,

i want you
to help me bring the rest
of your friends to justice.

I don't
think adam likes me.

It's not in adam's
nature to dislike anyone.

He's a remarkable man.

Saved me from
a lot of the same demons
that have a hold on you.

Trust me,
when i first got here,

i was just as
confused as you are.

Maybe even more so.

All i wanted to
do was live my life.

Then all of a sudden
these guys come after
you for no good reason.

Well,
other than the fact that
i can work people over

emotionally with my mind.

Well, yes, there
is that one thing.

We've all had our
gifts since birth.

And just like we
learned to walk and talk,

we've had to develop skills with
our new mutant abilities too.

Okay.

Adam asked me to teach you
some focussing techniques.

Help you channel your abilities.

Adam asked
you to do that?

He's got a lot
of faith in you.

It's up to you
to justify that faith.

I just want
you to follow my lead.

And don't worry if
you can't get it right away.

It's progress we're after.

Not perfection.

Gosh, you're such
a hotshot telepath,

you should have saw that coming.

That is the end of the
pain portion of our program,

assuming you
do what you're told.

Get the hell out of the chair.

We searched your store
and we found a hide out

behind a secret panel.

So now all we'd like you to
do is invite all your freaky

friends to a
little get-together.

There's another safe house.

Can't move against
eckhart until we're ready.

But from what i've seen
of emma, we're almost there.

And i understand your
frustration, but taking action

prematurely could
get us all killed.

Thanks, adam.

For what?

For listening to me when
i said i thought emma

deserved a second chance.

If i didn't believe in second
chances, you wouldn't be here.

Start scan.

Was i really that difficult?

Well, when i found you you were
holed in some fleabag hotel.

Hadn't eaten in five days.

I was convinced i was some
kind of freak, with what was

happening with
my body and my mind.

End scan.

Well, i'd say you pulled
yourself together pretty well,

everything considered.

Well,
i owe it all to you.

The good and the bad.

You don't need to
go there with me, adam.

So, how am i doing?

Visual diagnostic.

Perfect.

These id's are
ironclad with an electronic
paper trail that's foolproof.

There you go, allison.

Thank you.

Where's ruby?

Get everyone out of here.

They're everywhere.

Round them up.

Let's go.

Yes, mr thorne.

Alright, mulwray,
your powers are back on.

Let's see what you got.

Or do you require a little
jolt for motivation?

Nice work, mulwray.

Hey, it was an accident.

He went ghost on me,
what am i supposed to do?

He has a perfectly
clear shot at me,

and he hesitates just long
enough for me to phase out,

shoots through me
and hits two gs agents.

Could have
been an accident.

No way.

No, emma's is right.

He threw me a look.

He knew exactly
what he was doing.

Good.

Then eckhart hasn't been
able to suborn brennan yet.

He made it possible
for me to get out of there.

But they got everybody else.

Oh, except for ruby.

He wasn't there.

Has he checked in?

No, i haven't been
able to find him yet.

Well, we have failed the
people we pledged to protect.

Well, i say let's get in
there and get them the hell out.

Fine, get in where?

We don't know where
eckhart's holding them.

Let me find them.

I can do it.

I have the power.

Are you willing
to work with me to get
your gifts under control?

I am.

Then it's
time to take your first
step into a whole new life.

Nicely done, mr thorne.

I understand
there were problems.

Mr mulwray took
aim at one of adam's men,

the man went intangible,
mr mulwray shot through him,

which in turn allowed
the man to escape.

Bring me the delauro girl.

And no excuses.

Engage thermal cloak.

Analysis of your dna suggests
that you've got an enormous

reservoir of untapped power.

And a sensitivity that will
allow you to tele-empathically

contact allison,
vince and the others.

But... you have to focus.

You can do it, emma.

Just like i taught you.

Oh, god.

What?

I can see them.

I see allison.

And vince.

Good.

Where are they?

I don't know.

Welcome, all of you.

The children of genomex
have been away too long.

My name is mason eckhart.

It's time we all got
to know each other better.

I can't do it, adam.

I'm sorry.

Emma,
you're new at this.

It's okay.

When you were five, you
found your parents, right?

Yeah,
but i knew my parents.

And you know brennan.

You can do it.

One more time.

For him.

Focus.

Brennan.

I see him.

I know where he is.

Satellite has a place
between the two safe houses.

She's looking for her
freaky little friends.

So how does it feel to
betray your own kind, huh?

Freaks like us.

Well, i think you
should speak for yourself
because i'm no freak.

See, i just
got a talent and i'm using
it the best way i know how.

Yeah,
like you have a choice.

Yeah.

Because you see, i volunteered.

You must be real proud.

Well.

Hi.

Lovely to finally meet you
face to face, ms de lauro

you're eckhart?

Mr eckhart.

You'll learn soon enough how
to best deal with authority.

You'll be given
an opportunity to put
your abilities to use

rescuing others
like yourself.

You call dragging
us here rescue?

I call it
protective custody.

Who it's intended
to protect is open
to interpretation.

As for you, mr mulwray,
i have to say i'm terribly

disappointed by mr thorne's
report on your behaviour.

I've been hearing that
since the third grade.

It's really too bad.

You could
have been of enormous
service to the cause.

Instead, you'll be put into
stasis for future examination.

The alarm
reboots in five minutes,
so whenever you're ready.

Have to find where they're
holding emma and the others.

I have to get
into that control room.

Hold on, adam.

This is woman's work.

Excuse me, could you tell
me where you've got the new

mutants locked up?

I would've gotten him

i don't doubt it.

Everything seems to
check out, okay with you?

Yeah.

Adam has disengaged all of
your sub-dermal governors.

So it's time for
you guys to hit the road.

Here's your new id's.

Took you long
enough to track me here.

You know, you could have
let me in on the gag.

Well, i had to figure
the walls have ears.

Thanks for the heads
up at the safe house.

What are
you talking about?

Just lucky i missed.

Shalimar?

Guess again, adam.

Never did know
when to stop, did you?

You know, we're both guilty
of relentless tenacity, mason.

It's something we've
always had in common.

True.

But while
you chase your horrific
dreams of rescuing these

laboratory mistakes, my passion
is in the service of humanity.

A grim and limited vision of
humanity defined by your narrow

mind and your
pathetic perspective.

I suspect that
you've done that before.

Hey.

Got some unfinished
business to attend to.

You and your
freaks are threats to
everything i hold dear.

These so-called
freaks are the product
of genomex's recklessness.

What, am i supposed
to be wracked by guilt?

No, i'd never expect
guilt from you, mason.

It's too much
to ask of a sociopath.

No, that's what i've always
admired about you, adam.

Your utterly perverse
sense of reality.

Thorne.

If i'd known it was
this easy to get you here,

i'd have invited you sooner.

I'll be back.

Well,
that's wonderful.

Then you can visit that cage
of freaks i've got upstairs.

Thanks to mutant x, they should
all be one their way out by now.

I've disengaged
all your governors,
and our little talk has

gone on just long enough for
the virus that i uploaded into

your database to do its work.

I expect better than a
cheap bluff from you, adam.

Well,
i guess it is true.

What's that?

The bigger they are,
the faster they run.

That's because
he knows i can light him
up like a christmas tree.

What do you say we join the
others and get out of here?

Nice place.

Huh?

This must be real fun to clean.

Get the feeling he's
always like this, huh?

Always.

Welcome.

Emma, when i
started this journey,

i always knew i
needed someone like you.

Someone with
the gift of inner vision,
and the strength of

character to bear the weight
of so powerful a gift.

Now, in time, you'll come to
see yourself as i see you.

But for now, you'll just
have to take my word for it;

you're an answered prayer.

And brennan,
i never wanted to work
with someone like you.

Someone that would
squander his incredible
gift on petty crime.

An outlaw's
live-for-the-moment mentality.

Until i realised
that i have chosen the path

of the outlaw for myself.

And who better
than a fellow outlaw
to help show me the way?

You've both seen
what we're up against,

and that the
odds are against us.

But emma, i'm hoping that this
is a chance for you to fulfil

the potential that you know
is inside you and you've never

been able to quite reach.

And brennan, for you it's an
opportunity to put the past

behind you
and to join with us all in
helping create a new future.

Thank you.

What, no hug?

All right, i'm in.

But as long as there's no hazing
or weird secret handshakes.

No hazing.

No handshakes.

But you will be expected to
do some basic housekeeping.

Yes,
the ring is your key to your
own personal dna strand.

Yours and yours alone.

Welcome to mutant x.

God help anyone who tries
to stand in our way.
