Hey!

Geez.

You want to look before you
come at someone?

Shouldn't you be
with your squad?

Rowyn will have your hide
if you ditched your post.

I came to get you.

What's wrong?

Skin Riders.

What?

How many?

Relax.

All right?

There was two.

They're dead.

I got one, Thomas got the
other back at Green Valley.

And you left your squad?

There's somethin' else.

The Skin Riders weren't alone.

They were following reborns.

Sparks are making people again,

people we know.

Who?

Who is it, Nico?

It's your parents, Kylie.

My companion has been
calling to Silas all morning,

and getting no response.

Are you sure you programmed
that drone right?

Maybe you didn't program
the drone right

and that was your
plan all along.

To kill Silas like
you tried to kill me.

I tied you to a tree, Duncan.

If I meant to kill you

I would've used a more
enjoyable method.

Like programming
a drone to kill me?

My knowledge comes
from the Ancestor.

Have you lost your faith?

Well?

Escape will be difficult.

The entire camp is watching us.

If Jax finds out you did the
opposite of what he intended,

he'll kill us both.

I freed you
of the parasite, Silas.

If that costs me my
life, then so be it.

Why are you being kind to me?

If you knew what I've
done as a Skin Rider,

you wouldn't be
so eager to help.

No one is so far gone that they
are undeserving of kindness.

If you can cure me,

why not cure the others?

You are not cured.

I've merely severed the
parasite's control over you,

but it will try and retake you.

Rapid growth, organ seizure,

you will not survive.

So I'll die here?

AAlone?

Escape is difficult,
not impossible.

If you've got a
plan, let's hear it.

Manipulating Silas' neural
pathways has caused swelling

in his frontal lobe,

he must be kept in an induced
sleep while he recovers.

Should've thought
this through, Jax.

Killing our priest won't exactly
endear you to the Ancestor.

Or to our people.

When Silas wakes,

tell him I went north.

Two of our brothers were killed,

we'll find who's responsible.

I will relay your message.

You trust that thing?

Stay here.

Post two guards
outside the tent.

No one leaves.

Especially not the drone.

Let's go.

Show me their necks.

They already checked.

We're not Skin Riders.

We're looking for survivors
from a settlement.

Don't talk.

Don't move.

They're clean.

That's a warm reception.

You brought Riders
into my territory.

Don't expect a red carpet.

Bury the bodies.

Hide the Graves.

Thomas!

Take Raven and signal
to the other scouts.

Everyone back to Pine Lake,
all tracks covered.

You used that
little girl to draw us

and the Skin Riders here so
you could ambush them.

Raven did what had to be done.

She's a child!

Who was smart enough
to end a threat to her people.

A threat that you
brought, by the way.

We didn't know they
were tailing us,

or that you were here.

So you're ignorant and foolish.

And grateful.

Why did you scan us?

To check for the parasite?

Diseases.

Glad to know we have
a clean bill of health.

I'm Ezra, this is Ly...

Lynn.

Yeah, I know who you are.

You're from the
original Settlement?

I can't say if it was the
original Settlement or not.

But yeah.

That's how I know you.

Name's Rowyn.

We're looking for
our daughter, Kylie.

Is she here?

You answer my questions
and then maybe I answer yours.

How many people are
at the Settlement?

There are four of us.

Two stayed behind.

Names?

A man and a woman.

Abram and Feena.

Feena I like.

Abram I'll kill on sight.

Well... Why would you kill Abram?

Unresolved issue.

Stay out of the mud!

Sorry.

You'll leave tracks.

It's a miracle you two have
survived this long

considering how
careless you are.

Is Kylie here?

What's your last
memory of Kylie?

Her death.

During the invasion.

So you have no memory
of her in the Settlement?

No recollection
of her growing up?

Nothing of the last
12 years of her life?

So she is alive?

She's alive.

But she's not your
little girl anymore.

Technically, she was
never your girl at all.

You're just copies.

Keep that in mind.

Are you taking us to her?

I'm not taking you
anywhere, you're following.

But know this:

If you come with me,
you can never leave.

Why not?

Because if the Riders get you
they'll know your mind.

And in your mind will be the
location of Pine Lake,

and then everyone I know
and love will be dead

because you led them to us.

So, come or go, I don't care.

But if you're coming,
you're staying.

Kylie, wait!

My parents returned
from the dead

and you're going
to tell me to wait?

We all returned from the dead.

Can we talk about this?

You can't go running
back into their arms.

They're my parents.

They looked like your parents.

Maybe they're not.

Maybe it's your parents bodies

with other people's
brain states,

we don't know yet.

Abram said that the Sparks and
the drones would never do that.

Well, Abram was wrong
about a lot of things.

And if they are your parents,

maybe you want to think

about what you're going
to say to them about us?

They're going to tell you
you're too young to get married.

You don't know that.

Yes I do,

that's what parents do,

they object.

Well it's none of
their business.

All right.

Well, good luck
convincing them of that.

My parents liked you.

Yeah, as a nice kid
around the Settlement,

not as a soninlaw.

Besides, they looked at me
like they didn't even know me.

How could they not know you?

What if they were reborn with
their original brain states?

We recorded brain states
at the Settlement all the time.

Yeah I know, but what if?

Hey, they looked younger, Kylie,

ten years at least.

You need to accept the
possibility that these people

aren't the parents you remember.

There are no Skin Riders
within a onemile radius.

You sure?

My scans are thorough.

Keep a look out.

If you see anything,
come get us.

If this buried drone is smashed
to pieces like Yellow says,

it's not salvageable.

We don't need the parts,
just the data.

Anything that can tell us
more about the Settlement.

It's been in the ground
awhile, Abram.

Water damage, dirt,
decomposition.

We won't recover any data.

We won't know if we don't try.

If the drone's buried here,

then why does it look like
the grave of an adult?

Maybe the settlers didn't
want to draw attention to it.

Maybe, we shouldn't
be digging it up.

Aren't you curious to know
what's stored on the drone?

Maybe it knows
where the Ancestor is,

or how Duncan became infected.

Or nothing at all.

They buried it, Feena.

And they showed it the same
respect they showed each other.

If they thought
it that valuable,

maybe we will too.

There may be more Riders.

Move everyone deeper
into the caves

and try not to frighten
the children.

I thought you said you
lived at Pine Lake?

Where's the lake?

There isn't one.

That's the point.

If the Riders catch
wind of Pine Lake,

this is the last
place they'll look.

They look at you and see ghosts.

Both of us are dead?

We were told that I
came off with Kylie.

You did.

What happened to me?

Before coming here,
we lived in trees to the west.

Hidden well, or so we thought.

Riders attacked in the night.

Only 19 of us escaped.

We all would have
died if not for you.

How did I die?

Silas killed you.

Silas?

Yes, your brother.

We'd all still be in the
Settlement if not for him.

And Kylie wouldn't be an orphan.

She's not an orphan anymore.

We'll see.

If you're one of us,
you fight with us.

I'm not much of a fighter.

Then you're not the Lynn I knew.

There.

You realize this makes
us grave robbers?

Looks worse than I thought.

Yellow?

The core is badly damaged,

but some of the data
may be salvageable.

Any brain states?

I won't know until I'm
hardwired to the core.

Feena, I will require
your assistance.

That's the best I can do.

Sloppy work but...

Sufficient. Thank you.

Can you access anything?

I have downloaded 78
percent of Blue's database.

The remaining 22
percent is corrupted.

What'd you learn?

The Settlers recorded
their brain states often.

I have their memories.

Then you can tell us what
happened to the settlers.

Better if I show you.

Show us?

You mean, deep recall?

You will not like it, Abram.

Because I suffered
when they died?

Because it's your
fault they died.

You'll sleep here.

It's not as comfortable
as the Settlement,

but it'll do.

Will the Skin Riders
find us here?

Let's hope not.

There aren't many of us left.

If we couldn't stop them before,

I doubt we could stop them now.

We've endangered them.

There's plenty of distance

between where they
found us and here.

Not enough.

Rowyn's smart.

Her soldiers are
disciplined, they...

Their soldiers are
practically children.

Children who can take
care of themselves.

Kylie?

Kylie?

You have to ask if it's me?

You were six years old
when we saw you last.

So you don't know me?

We want to.

If you let us.

My mother cut her hair short
when we came north.

You're younger than she was,
too.

Not much older than I am.

II know that I look different,

but I'm the same person.

And so is your father.

And those aren't your clothes.

They belong to Isabelle
and Anish, I know.

I helped make them.

We found them in the Settlement.

Did you find the virus too?

Why aren't you sick?

The Sparks made a cure.

When your mother was reborn,

the Sparks found a way
to vaccinate against it.

I was engineered
with an immunity.

That's what they do.

They engineer.

They shape us into whatever
they want us to be.

They make a duplicate,

only it isn't a duplicate
because it's been tinkered with,

it's been changed.

It only looks like the original.

Look, I...

I came here to see
if you were my parents.

I want you to be.

I'm just not sure
if you are yet.

I hope you can understand that.

Let her go.

What just happened?

We need to look at this
from her perspective.

I am!

ShShe's alone
and we're her parents.

Are we?

The previous versions of us,

they were more her parents
than we were.

We raised her until she was six.

She probably doesn't
remember that.

Look, our memories of her are
not her memories of us.

What do we do then?

We prove to her who we are.

How is he?

Sleeping.

Solar panels?

Heh, need a bit of a recharge?

You know, I like having
a drone around.

Reminds me of the good old days.

Come on now.

You have my memories.

You know I helped
with the project.

You were familiar
with the drones.

You were no expert.

I knew enough to be dangerous.

I turned Yellow off easy enough.

I manipulated you.

Something you will not repeat,

I assure you.

Really?

TOUCH THAT DRONE and
it will be your last act!

What happened to you?

Ambush.

The reborns have found
the other settlers.

Why didn't you call?

My Companion is injured.

Let me see th...

Take the squad of men
to Crow's Creek!

My men will meet you there!

Are you deaf?!

They're gone.

That was smart.

They'll discover it was
a trick soon enough.

This way.

Where'd you learn
to shoot like that?

Nicholas.

We all have to learn.

Protecting the community
is everyone's responsibility.

I wish that wasn't the case.

I mean, I wish you
didn't feel threatened.

Yeah, well, that's life.

You look the same.

Older of course,
but same features.

This is really strange for you,
I know.

It's strange for me
and your mom, too.

She's not my mom.

My mom died protecting
this community.

Protecting me.

You're right.

She's not the same person
who raised you.

She wasn't there for you
in the Settlement.

But she is the same human being.

Just as you're the same
Kylie that we remember.

I'm not the same Kylie
you remember.

I'm not six years old anymore!

I don't need the parents
of my childhood.

I need the parents
of who I am now!

And they're already gone.

It's me, Kylie.

I'm the same man.

Same man who left us?

Same man who never came back?

Do you have any idea
what that did to my mother?

What that did to me?

Look, you're someone
from a different time,

and so am I.

Maybe we should
just accept that.

Spread out.

Look for tracks.

Why is it my fault
the settlers died?

I will show you.

Be very still.

What is this?

This is the previous settlement.

No forcefield.

There was no need for one...

Not yet.

Whose memory is this?

They should've been back by now.

Ezra!

They can't hear or see us.

Hey!

They're coming.

That's me.

Find anything?

Is that Silas's?

I made it for him.

Hey, hey.

You should not be climbing up
that ladder.

I tell her that all the time,
but she doesn't listen.

Where did you get this?

On Silas.

Now don't misunderstand,
he's alive.

He attacked us.

Attacked you?

Something's wrong.

There was a growth on his neck.

It glowed.

He spoke to us,
but it was like...

Someone else was speaking.

Where was this?

Near the old Karik warship
to the south.

There's no way you're
going out there this late

with the temperature dropping.

I'm not leaving my brother
out there alone.

Trust me, you should.

Silas was the first Skin Rider.

He went hunting
and did not return.

How was he infected?

The parasite creates a
multicellular structure

much like a fungal fruiting
body that disperses spores

on contact.

Silas breathed in a spore?

Or ate an animal that had.

But where did this parasite
come from?

Why haven't humans ever dealt
with it before?

The parasite came
with the Karik.

It's been on earth
since the invasion.

It came in their ships?

It came in them.

The Karik are a largely
peaceful species.

The ones who attacked earth
were controlled by parasites.

They were Skin Riders?

Same parasite, different host.

I wouldn't do that
if I were you.

What?

Didn't occur to you I'd use
my own men as bait?

Just because they are younger
than your parents

doesn't mean they
aren't your parents.

Everything that is my relationsh
with my parents,

isn't them.

Memories, moments.

They're just strangers.

Strangers who desparately
want to know you.

You hate the Sparks
and the drones!

Why are you supporting this?

Because I would give anything to
have one hour with my parents,

or my husband, or my son.

Even if they didn't know me.

Even if...

I could only watch them
from far off,

I would take that hour.

I'm not saying this is easy,
Kylie.

I'm saying you've been
given something.

And I think you should at
least find out what it is

before you give it up.

Your blood pressure is dropping.

Breathing's slowing.

The parasite is pressing
on your organs and nerves.

Can't you do something?

Is this a dream?

A controlled state
of consciousness,

not unlike hypnosis.

My parents' cabin.

Where you felt most at peace,
before the invasion.

You've blocked the pain?

Sadly, I can only do so while
I keep you in this state.

Parasite's gone, Silas.

This is a safe place.

Grape soda?

We used to drink these all
the time when we were kids.

Mom kept them in the fridge
in the basement.

Where do you think I got these?

You're not the real Ezra,
are you?

We're playing pretend here.

I'm Ezra's brain state.

The drone is helping
because this isn't a memory,

but I'm 92 percent Ezra.

I'm dying.

There isn't anything
to do about it.

Your body's dying,
but you aren't.

Because the drone will
preserve my brain state?

Because I don't think we die.

Not us, not who we are.

You're getting a little
metaphysical on me.

It's not metaphysics, Silas.

It's hope.

I like to think that the
universe isn't so cruel

that we exist,

and then we're forgotten.

It's best that I'm forgotten.

What I've done as a Skin Rider...

Wasn't you.

Some of it was.

Someone's coming.

Hurry!

This way.

Duncan's moving toward
the Settlement.

To block our way.

He knows we fooled him.

Why not shoot him with a dart?

Jax removed all of my defenses.

Of course he did.

He also removed my ability
to project brain states,

but he reinstalled that once
he thought me under his control.

I don't think that trick
will work twice.

I will get you inside
the Settlement, Silas.

Because you pity me?

Because it's not too late
for you to set everything right.

Stay close.

You're a brave boy.

Thomas, isn't it?

Do you remember me, Thomas?

I'm willing to bet that if we
asked you where your people are,

you wouldn't tell us.

Even if we tortured you.

Am I right?

But you see,

we won't have to torture you.

By midday tomorrow,
you'll tell us everything,

without me even asking.

Rowyn!

Thomas hasn't checked in yet.

And several of the lookouts
spotted a campfire to the south.

What do we do?

You're asking for our advice?

We had a council
in the Settlement.

We made these
decisions together.

Any chance Thomas
made that fire?

No way.

He wouldn't miss checkin either.

Especially when
we're on lockdown.

Maybe the campfire's
from your people.

Feena and Abram were safe
where they are,

and they wouldn't risk
a fire anyway.

We should assume the worst
as a precaution.

That it's Skin Riders?

That Thomas has been taken,
and infected.

How much time would
that give us?

Before the parasite takes him?

A day, maybe less.

If you don't think you can
defend these caves,

you have two options.

Either leave,

or stay and hope that
I'm wrong about Thomas.

If we leave,
we expose ourselves.

You lose your
defensive position, yes.

There's no cover outside.

We can't move quickly
with the children.

Which is why you want
to leave immediately.

Give yourselves as much
lead time as possible.

In the dark?

You said it yourself...

There's not much cover
in daylight.

You know this terrain better
than they do.

I assume you've scouted?

Of course we have,

but you're asking us
to abandon our home,

the safest place we know.

And when it might not
even be necessary.

If Thomas reveals this location,

this isn't a safe place anymore.

Yeah, no thanks to you.

Nico!

We can defend the caves!

I'm not sure we can.

Forgive Nicholas.

He and Thomas were close.

I'd say he and Kylie
are close, too.

They're engaged.

I'm probably not supposed
to tell you that,

but you are her parents.

Or so you tell me.

You still haven't told us
why I'm responsible

for what happened
to the settlers.

It wasn't only you.

The Obelisk bears
some responsibility.

You want to make a virus?

Our immune systems can't
handle the Skin Rider parasite.

Every person who is
infected is lost.

But if we make a genetic change
in the nucleus of our cells,

we could starve the
Skin Rider parasite.

Make us resistant to infection.

How many of our people
are we going to lose

before we do something?

You're talking
about changing DNA.

I'm not saying there isn't risk.

Well, nobody's touching my DNA.

Or mine.

This isn't my idea.

It came from the Obelisk.

But you think it's worth doing?

I trust the Obelisk,

and I trust the Sparks.

They'd make the virus.

I say virus and you think "bad,"

but we have millions
of them in us already,

and some of them are good!

Lynn?

You're the medical professional.

We've all lost someone
to the parasite.

A friend, a spouse, a parent.

We're all afraid.

But what you're describing,
Abram...

sounds like gene therapy.

Transferred genes
could be overexpressed,

altered DNA could
cause mutations,

a lot could go wrong.

The Sparks know
what they're doing.

The Sparks have made mistakes.

We can't impose this on anyone.

People have to choose
to do this,

and understand the risks.

It has to be all of us.

Otherwise those who
take the virus

might infect those who don't.

Then we separate.

Those who want to take the
virus and those who don't.

Leave the Settlement?

Until we know if the virus
works or not.

Those who take
the virus should leave.

I'm not going anywhere.

The virus would likely weaken
them temporarily,

even if it works.

They'd need rest;
They should stay.

This is stupid.

It is my fault.

I killed them all.

I wish there was more
we could do.

You're leaving your home
because of us.

We're leaving our home
because of them.

It was time for us
to move on anyway.

We'll find you,

and we'll bring Thomas with us.

I hope so.

Where's Kylie?

She's inside.

And refusing to leave.

She can't stay.

I can't make her go.

If you can convince her,
she can catch up.

If you can convince her,
she can catch up.

Hey.

Hey!

Are you out of your mind?

You need another bow.

And I'm a better shot
than you are.

And no.

Rowyn needs you
protecting the others.

If the Skin Riders
don't get by us,

then the other people won't
need protection.

No.

I won't allow it.

So you command me now?

Of course not!

I'm trying to protect you,
Kylie.

What do you think I'm doing?

If I had would have known you
were going to act this way,

I wouldn't have stayed.

Well, if you had consulted with
me before you made a decision,

then maybe you would have known.

That's how marriage works.

We're not married yet.

Or ready to act like it
apparently.

I'm not giving up on my parents.

So they're your parents now?

They risked their lives
to find me.

They don't know me,
but they love me.

How can you tell?

The way they look at me.

It's the way they've always
looked at me.

I don't want to risk
losing that again.

I'm here to help you!

Like you helped Lynn?

That's not me now.

You expect us to believe that?

Ask the drone.

You need Silas, Abram.

Why?

We can't destroy
the Ancestor without him.

What's wrong with him?

The parasite is killing him.

What do we do?

Bring him inside.

Bring him inside.

Bring him inside.

It's a good lookout spot.

Yup.

Have you seen anything?

I would've told everybody
if I had.

Have you been an archer
a long time?

We learned how to hunt
at an early age.

How long have you and Kylie
been interested in each other?

A while.

That's a vague answer, Nico.

A month?

A year?

These are the easy questions.

Is that why you came
all the way out here?

Was to...

To interview me?

To get to know you.

So far I'd say
it's going poorly.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I don't mean to come off
as defensive.

I can understand why you
might be.

Your girlfriend's parents show
up when you least expect it.

She's my fiancée.

She's not my girlfriend.

What about your parents?

My mother...

was never reborn.

And my father, he -

He's a Skin Rider.

I'm sorry.

I take care of myself.

And Kylie does, too.

What was our relationship?

You and I?

Before the other me died?

It was this.

It was you,

wary of Kylie and me.

You didn't much like the idea.

Why not?

Because you thought that she was
too young to be with anybody.

You disagree?

Well, this is a different
world, Lynn.

This isn't suburbia anymore.

We either build the human race
or we die out.

I love Kylie.

And I would die before I let
anything happen to her.

I may not be what you
had hoped for for her.

But I am something.

Nico!

It's Thomas.

Thomas!

Where were you?

Nico!

It's all right.

It's going to be all right.

There's something in the tip
of the arrow.

The parasite?

That's four of my brothers
you've killed.

This ends now!

How is he?

Red is keping him
in an induced coma.

Why?

To make him comfortable.

The parasite continues to grow
and strangle his brain stem.

If Silas regains consciousness,

he will die.
