AGGHH...!

OPEN UP!

NO. GO AWAY!

PLEASE, PLEASE, LET ME IN.

DON'T LET HIM IN.

DON'T DO IT.

PLEASE LET ME IN!

DAMMIT!

COME ON, DAMMIT!

WHAT IS THAT?

YEAH, AND HOW FAST CAN WE KILL IT?

UH, IT WAS AN EMERGENCY ALARM.

IT'S COMING THROUGH ADAM'S PRIVATE FREQUENCY.

WHAT KIND OF EMERGENCY?

I DON'T KNOW.

BUT I'M GUESSING HE'S ABOUT TO TELL US.

ADAM, YOU WERE RIGHT.

WE SHOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN INVOLVED.

THIS PROJECT'S GOTTEN OUT OF CONTROL.

WHAT'S HE TALKING ABOUT?

WHAT PROJECT? WHERE ARE YOU?

HE CAN'T HEAR YOU.

IT'S A ONE-WAY DISTRESS CALL.

I'M SENDING YOU A VIDEO

ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING ON THE BASE AROUND ME.

IT'S HORRIBLE.

WHAT THE HELL...?

ADAM, PLEASE, I NEED YOUR HELP.

WHAT JUST HAPPENED?

TRANSMISSION'S BEEN CUT AT THE SOURCE.

WE'VE LOST HIM.

SCIENTIST ADAM KANE.

WAS A PIONEER OF GENETIC RESEARCH,

MANIPULATING DNA TO SAVE HUMAN LIVES.

BUT IN MANY, THEIR GENES UNEXPECTEDLY MUTATED.

THEY DEVELOPED SUPER-HUMAN ABILITIES.

* *

TOGETHER FOUR OF THE MOST POWERFUL

FIGHT TO PROTECT A WORLD THAT DOESN'T EVEN KNOW THEY EXIST.

THEY ARE... MUTANT X.

DR. VINCENT ARRIGO...

...HE'S ANOTHER EX-GENOMEX ALUMNI.

WHEN GENOMEX FOLDED, ADAM PULLED SOME STRINGS TO GET HIM

INTO THE ARMY'S BIO-RESEARCH DIVISION.

HE'S STATIONED AT FORT PERRY.

IT'S A MILITARY MEDICAL INSTALLATION.

LET ME GUESS: GENE-BASED RESEARCH?

TEN POINTS.

HIS WORK IS MAJORLY CLASSIFIED.

I'M TALKING LEVEL 6 CLEARANCE.

I CAN'T EVEN SEE THE WORK HE'S BEEN DOING.

TRY GERM WARFARE.

IT'S SAFE TO ASSUME THAT WHATEVER ARRIGO AND HIS TEAM WERE

WORKING ON ISN'T A NEW COLD AND FLU REMEDY.

WELL, WHAT DID YOU FIND?

MY CONTACTS TELL ME IT'S A NEW FORM OF A WEAPONIZED PLAGUE.

OTHER THAN THAT, THEY'RE COMPLETELY IN THE DARK.

THE MILITARY'S BLOCKING ALL COMMUNICATIONS WITHIN THE BASE.

THEY WANT US TO ANSWER THAT DISTRESS SIGNAL.

WHOA, HO, HANG ON HERE.

PLAGUE EXTERMINATOR?

NOT IN MY JOB DESCRIPTION.

YEAH, BRENNAN'S RIGHT.

I MEAN, WHY AREN'T THEY CALLING IN CENTER FOR DISEASE CONTROL?

BECAUSE IF THE ARMY ASKS FOR OUTSIDE HELP THEY ADMIT CULPABILITY.

THEY HAVE TO HAND OVER WHATEVER CLASSIFIED RESEARCH RELATES.

THAT'S NEVER GONNA HAPPEN.

SHE'S RIGHT.

RIGHT NOW, DR. ARRIGO'S OUR ONLY CHANCE.

HE IS SMACK DAB IN THE MIDDLE OF GROUND ZERO.

YEAH, AND WHAT IF HE'S ALREADY DEAD?

THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO FIND OUT.

SO WHAT'S THE PLAN ONCE WE LAND?

WELL, TAKE THE MOST DIRECT ROUTE TO ARRIGO'S LAB.

DO NOT PASS GO.

AND DO NOT GET CORNERED BY WHATEVER IT WAS WE SAW IN THAT VIDEO LINK.

GOOD STRATEGY.

SO, YOU THINK ARRIGO IS GONNA FIX WHATEVER IT IS HE OPENED UP?

WELL, IF HE'S THE ONE THAT OPENED IT,

HE'S GOT THE BEST CHANCE OF DEALING WITH IT.

ALL RIGHT, FORT PERRY DEAD AHEAD.

SHAL, WHAT YOU GOT ON THE SENSORS?

WELL, THERE'S A HEAVY MILITARY PRESENCE ALL AROUND THE PERIMETER.

AND... IT LOOKS LIKE THE BASE IS CIRCLED BY SOME SORT OF ENERGY FENCE.

HIGH-TECH QUARANTINE.

CAN WE LAND INSIDE THE INSTALLATION?

IT'S RISKY.

AS SOON AS WE GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO LAND,

IT'LL PROBABLY FRY OUT OUR NAV SYSTEMS.

HUH, LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GOING IN THE FRONT DOOR.

ALL RIGHT, I'M TAKING HER OUT OF STEALTH.

I'M GUESSING THESE MILITARY TYPES WOULDN'T LOOK SO KINDLY

UPON US JUST APPEARING OUT OF THIN AIR.

GUYS?

BEING HAILED ON BROADBAND.

UNIDENTIFIED CRAFT:

YOU'RE ENTERING RESTRICTED MILITARY AIRSPACE.

LAND IMMEDIATELY OR BE CONSIDERED HOSTILE.

COPY THAT. WE'RE COMING IN.

SO IF ANY OF YOUR BUDDIES HAVE MILITARY PULL,

NOW MIGHT BE A REAL GOOD TIME...

I'M ON IT.

ALL WE'RE ASKING FOR IS ENTRY.

YOU'RE IN NO POSITION TO ASK ME WHAT I HAD FOR BREAKFAST,

LET ALONE BREACH MY QUARANTINE.

I'LL DO THIS ONE MORE TIME: WHO DO YOU WORK FOR?

HOW DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS?

AND WHO ELSE KNOWS?

FINE.

I WANT THEM RESTRAINED.

OH, HEY, HEY, WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.

WAIT UP - YOU MIGHT WANT TO GET THIS.

IT'S FOR YOU.

THIS IS MAJOR GENERAL KLEIN.

YES, SIR.

I'D PAY BIG MONEY TO TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR ROLODEX.

THAT'S WHAT ALL THE BOYS SAY.

I UNDERSTAND, SIR.

IT SEEMS I'M TO GIVE YOU COOPERATION.

GOOD.

SO, WHAT STEPS ARE BEING TAKEN TO REVERSE THE INFECTION?

MILITARY DOCTORS ARE WORKING OFF-SITE.

WE'RE RUNNING A STRAIGHT "QUARANTINE AND CONTAINMENT" OP OUT HERE.

SURE WE DON'T NEED SOME SORT OF PROTECTIVE MASKS OR HAZMAT SUITS?

IT ISN'T AIRBORNE.

TRANSMISSION REQUIRES CONTACT THROUGH BROKEN SKIN - BITES, SCRATCHES.

SO KEEP YOUR DISTANCE FROM ANYONE INFECTED.

YOU CAN COUNT ON THAT.

OKAY, LET'S BE CLEAR ON ONE LAST THING.

YOUR CONNECTION'S GOT YOU AN ENTRY PASS, NOT AN EXIT.

ONCE INSIDE, YOU ALL BECOME CONTAGION RISKS.

YOU'LL BE CONSIDERED QUARANTINED - JUST LIKE THE REST.

UNDERSTOOD?

UNDERSTOOD.

CHEERY LITTLE GUY, ISN'T HE?

I DON'T KNOW IF I LIKE GOING IN THERE KNOWING HE'S OUR ONLY WAY OUT.

WELL, ONE OF US IS GOING TO HAVE TO STAY BEHIND, THEN.

OH, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT.

JESS... COME ON, WE'RE OUTNUMBERED IN THERE AS IT IS.

WELL, THEN ONE LESS WON'T MAKE THAT MUCH OF A DIFFERENCE.

LOOK, THE HELIX IS LINKED TO YOUR SYSTEMS IN SANCTUARY.

YOU'LL BE MORE HELP IF YOU STAY WITH IT.

FINE.

GOOD.

LISTEN, FIND OUT ABOUT THE CONTAINMENT MEASURES,

AND SEE IF THERE'S ANY BACKDOOR EXIT - IN CASE WE NEED IT.

START WITH THAT FENCE.

KILL SECTION NINE.

HERE WE GO. WISH US LUCK.

LUCK...

AH, IT'S NOT A GOOD SIGN.

HOW FAR ARE WE FROM ARRIGO?

HIS LAB SHOULD BE IN THE MAIN BUILDING.

WHAT'S UP, SHAL?

THAT SMELL. IT'S LIKE... ROTTING...

INFECTED FLESH, OR SOMETHING.

NOW, THERE'S A REASON I'M GLAD I'M NOT FERAL.

CAN YOU TRACK IT?

THERE.

GET OUT OF HERE! RUN!

GO! GO!

COME ON.

YOU GOT TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND VOLTS RUNNING THROUGH THAT FENCE.

WHERE ARE YOU GETTING THE JUICE?

WE'VE DIVERTED EVERY BIT OF POWER FROM THE INSTALLATION TO THE FENCE.

NOTHING'S GONNA GET THROUGH THERE.

MAYBE I COULD TAKE A LOOK AT THOSE SCHEMATICS JUST TO MAKE SURE.

THE FENCE SPECS ARE CLASSIFIED.

YOUR TEAM TOOK A BIG RISK GOING IN THERE ON THEIR OWN.

THAT'S WHAT WE DO.

WHAT MAKES THEM THINK THEY CAN SUCCEED WHERE OUR RESOURCES HAVE FAILED?

WELL, LET'S JUST SAY WE'VE GOT SOME PRETTY UNIQUE RESOURCES OF OUR OWN.

SUCH AS?

THAT'S CLASSIFIED.

JUST MAKE SURE YOU OBEY THE QUARANTINE ORDERS

AND YOU WON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS.

I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYONE LEFT TO ROLL OUT THE WELCOME WAGON.

I HOPE YOU'RE WRONG.

WHATEVER WE DO, WE HAD BETTER DO IT FAST.

OKAY, NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME, BRENNAN.

DON'T FRY IT. WE NEED TO LOCK IT BEHIND US.

JUST LET ME WORK HERE, HUH?

GO, GO, GO!

JUST SO YOU KNOW, THERE'S PROBABLY JUST AS MANY INFECTED

INSIDE AS THERE ARE OUTSIDE.

OH, GREAT.

JUST WHEN I WAS STARTING TO FEEL ALL WARM AND FUZZY.

THEY'RE ONTO US. THEY CAN PROBABLY SMELL PEOPLE WHO AREN'T INFECTED.

ARRIGO'S LAB SHOULD BE AROUND THE CORNER.

GO.

DR. ARRIGO, LET US IN.

WHO ARE YOU?

WE GOT THE MESSAGE YOU SENT.

ADAM SENT YOU?

YES.

GUYS?

JUST LET US IN.

I DIDN'T KNOW IF ANYONE HAD RECEIVED THE MESSAGE.

ALL RIGHT, YOU WANT TO TELL US WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

IT'S PRETTY COMPLICATED GENETIC THEORY.

WELL, TRY US.

MY FIELD IS BEHAVIORAL SHADOWING.

IT'S A RARE PHENOMENON WHERE PARASITES ACTUALLY CONTROL

THEIR HOSTS, INSTEAD OF FEEDING OFF OF THEM.

LIKE LITTLE PUPPET-MASTERS.

SO FAR, IT'S ONLY BEEN PROVEN TO OCCUR WITH THE LOWER

SPECIES - SPIDERS, RATS.

OUR DIRECTIVE WAS TO CREATE A PARASITE THAT WOULD

INFLUENCE HUMAN BEHAVIOUR.

ALLOW US TO GAIN CONTROL OVER AN ENTIRE ENEMY FORCE JUST BY INFECTING IT.

THAT'S POSSIBLE?

IT'S HAPPENING. RIGHT NOW, ON THIS BASE.

LET ME SHOW YOU.

THE PARASITE WE DESIGNED SECRETES A NEURAL CHEMICAL THAT

TRIGGERS HYPER AGGRESSION.

OH, WHAT? YOU JUST INFECT ONE OF THEM AND THEN SIT BACK AND WATCH AS

THEY INFECT EACH OTHER?

WE COULD WIN A WAR WITHOUT FIRING A SINGLE SHOT.

IT WAS BRILLIANT.

IT'S INSANE.

WHAT WENT WRONG?

SHE DID.

I BLAME MYSELF.

MY ASSISTANT RACHEL ACCIDENTALLY INFECTED HERSELF

BEFORE WE COULD DEVELOP AN ANTIDOTE.

UGH!

HEY, YOU OKAY?

WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME?

TIE HIM DOWN.

TIE HIM DOWN - NOW!

HE'S INFECTED.

COME ON, NOW.

MOVE IT! MOVE IT!

HE'S RIGHT. HE'S RIGHT.

DO IT. DO IT.

LET'S GO!

WAIT, WAIT. YOU HAVE TO HELP THE OTHERS.

LISTEN TO ME. LISTEN TO ME.

FOR ALL OUR SAKES, KILL ME.

PLEASE... JUST... KILL ME.

WERE YOU TRYING TO GET OUT?

NO. WOMAN I WAS HIDING WITH FELL INTO DIABETIC SHOCK.

I VOLUNTEERED TO GO GET INSULIN.

THAT'S A PRETTY BALLSY MOVE.

YOU HAD TO KNOW HALF THE INSTALLATION WAS INFECTED.

WELL, THE LEAST WE CAN DO IS MAKE SURE YOU DIDN'T DO IT FOR NOTHING.

ALL RIGHT, DOC, YOU KNOW WHERE HIS FRIENDS ARE?

THE OLD KITCHEN IN THE BASEMENT.

TAKE THIS FIRST AID KIT.

YOU'RE GONNA NEED IT.

GO AHEAD.

SHAL...

WELL, WE'RE CLEAR AS FAR AS THE CORNER.

LET'S HOPE WE CAN MAKE IT ALL THE WAY TO THE KITCHEN.

YOU SURE HE'S INFECTED?

TAKE A LOOK.

WELL, HOW MANY OF THESE THINGS ARE INSIDE HIM?

AT THIS STAGE, THOUSANDS, MAYBE MORE.

HE ONLY HAS A FEW HOURS LEFT BEFORE HE TURNS,

AND THEIR IMPERATIVES WILL DIRECT HIS ACTIONS.

I WAS WORKING ON A TREATMENT BEFORE THE ARMY SHUT DOWN

THE MAIN COMPUTER SYSTEM.

HE CAN'T STAY HERE: HE'LL PUT US ALL AT RISK.

YOUR JOB IS TO REVERSE THE EFFECTS, CORRECT?

WELL, MEET YOUR FIRST PATIENT.

UNDER TEN MINUTES.

SOMETIMES I AM JUST FREAKIN' GOOD.

LET'S SEE WHAT YOU GOT FOR ME.

NO. NO.

OH, I'M GONNA BOOKMARK YOU FOR LATER.

BINGO.

HEY, JESSE, WHAT'S YOUR STATUS?

WELL, I GOT SOME NEWS ON THAT FENCE.

GOOD NEWS?

NO. WHOEVER DESIGNED IT KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING.

THEY'VE GOT YOU LOCKED UP IN THERE TIGHT.

THEY GOT ALL THE POWER FROM THE WHOLE BASE JACKED INTO THE FENCE.

IT COULD TAKE ME ALL NIGHT TO WORK OUT A WORKAROUND.

HOW'S IT GOING IN THERE?

WELL, IT TURNS OUT ARRIGO WAS CLOSE TO AN EXPERIMENTAL TREATMENT.

BUT HE HAD TO ABORT BECAUSE HE LOST THE MAIN RESEARCH SERVER.

CAN YOU HOOK IT BACK UP?

WELL, IF THE SERVER'S DOWN, IT'S DOWN.

BUT I COULD LINK UP YOUR COMPUTER IN THE LAB TO MINE HERE IN

THE HELIX AND THEN TO OURS BACK IN SANCTUARY.

THAT WAY WE COULD TASK SHARE DURING THE PROCEDURES.

PERFECT.

OKAY... ONE NETWORK LINK FOR THE LADY COMING UP.

THANKS.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT THIS PLACE IS CREEPING ME OUT.

I'M NOT ARGUING.

THAT WAS YOUR ONLY WARNING!

TAKE IT EASY! WE'RE NOT INFECTED.

SHOW ME.

PETER SENT US.

WE HAVE INSULIN AND MEDICAL SUPPLIES.

OKAY, GET UP HERE.

MOVE.

SORRY ABOUT THE RESTRAINTS. DOCTOR'S ORDERS.

DON'T BE SORRY.

SHIVERING AND FEVER IS JUST THE FIRST STAGE.

IT GETS A WHOLE LOT WORSE.

GUESS YOU'RE PROBABLY ALL EXPERTS ON THIS BY NOW, HUH?

YEAH.

ME MORE THAN MOST, THOUGH.

MY SISTER WAS THE FIRST ONE INFECTED.

RACHEL. HIS ASSISTANT?

YEAH.

THE ONE THAT INFECTED HERSELF IN THE LAB?

THAT'S A LOAD OF CRAP.

RACHEL WAS TERRIFIED OF THAT PROJECT.

THERE'S NO WAY SHE WOULD'VE GOT CLOSE ENOUGH TO INFECT HERSELF.

ARE YOU SAYING HE'S LYING?

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M SAYING.

I JUST DON'T TRUST HIM.

WELL, YOU MIGHT HAVE TO START.

HE'S COME UP WITH A TREATMENT PROCESS THAT WE NEED YOU TO...

I'LL DO IT.

OH. TEN MINUTES AGO YOU WERE ABOUT TO GIVE UP.

NOW YOU'RE READY TO FIGHT.

THAT'S A GOOD SIGN.

THIS ISN'T ABOUT SOME CURE.

THIS IS ABOUT DEBT.

I OWE MY SISTER.

THINGS GOT BAD FOR HER NEAR THE END.

SHE TRIED ATTACKING ME AND I...

I... HAD TO... HURT HER.

JUST TO GET AWAY.

THAT'S WHAT THIS PARASITE IS.

TURNED MY OWN FLESH AND BLOOD INTO SOMETHING I WAS AFRAID OF.

CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT THAT'S LIKE?

ACTUALLY, I CAN.

I'LL GO TELL THE DOCTOR YOU'RE READY.

THERE'S ABOUT TWENTY OF US LEFT.

AT FIRST WE JUST FOUND EACH OTHER ON THE RUN,

BUT THEN A FEW OF US ARMED OURSELVES,

STARTED DOING SWEEPS LOOKING FOR OTHER UNINFECTED.

AND NOW?

WELL, NO NEW UNINFECTED FOR HOURS.

WE'RE STARTING TO THINK WE'RE THE LAST ONES.

HOW MANY WERE INJURED?

A HANDFUL - FROM FALLS, MOSTLY.

WELL, EXCEPT FOR ANGELA.

WHO'S ANGELA.

SHE'S THE ONE YOU'RE HERE FOR.

YOU GET IN.

COME ON, MOVE.

THAT'S ANGELA OVER THERE.

IT'S OKAY. I GOT IT FROM HERE. GO AHEAD.

OKAY, LEXA, WE'RE READY TO GO HERE.

ALL SYSTEMS ARE SYNCHED.

I'LL RUN A REAL-TIME ANALYSIS AS YOU RUN THE PROCEDURE.

WE'RE GOING TO ATTEMPT TO PURIFY THE PATIENT'S BLOOD WITH A

FIRST-BORE ANTl-PARASITIC WASH.

STARTING INITIAL DRIP...

NOW.

WHOA WHOA WHOA, DOCTOR. THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG.

WELL, WHAT IS IT?

UH, THE PARASITES ARE MULTIPLYING - FAST.

GET THE SEDATIVE.

I SAID THE SEDATIVE!

KILLING HIM WOULD BE A KINDNESS RIGHT NOW.

THIS IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO.

I AM NOT GOING TO ASK YOU AGAIN.

YOU'RE GOING TO BE AS GOOD AS NEW.

IT'S GOING TO BE OKAY.

FEEL BETTER?

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

IS THERE SOMEPLACE YOU CAN LOCK YOURSELVES?

WHY?

SOMEONE HERE'S INFECTED.

AGH...!

OH, MY GOD. BRENNAN.

WHAT?

YOU'VE BEEN INFECTED.

WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE.

IT'S TOO LATE.

DROP IT. DROP IT!

OPEN THAT DOOR!

IT'S ALREADY HITTING ME. I CAN FEEL IT.

LET'S GO.

IT'S NOT SAFE FOR YOU TO BE AROUND ME ANYMORE.

I TRUST YOU. I DON'T!

UGH... UGH...!

GET THE DOOR... OPEN UP...!

SHUT THE DOOR!

IS THERE NO OTHER WAY? SIR?

BARRING NEW DEVELOPMENTS, NO.

START READYING YOUR TEAM TO MOVE OUT.

IT'S A TOUGH CALL, KLEIN, BUT IT'S THE RIGHT ONE.

DONE.

PREPARE TO MOVE THE UNIT.

WASHINGTON IS CALLING IN AN AIR STRIKE.

AND WE HAVE A WINNER.

OKAY, WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?

EXPERIMENTING WITH ANTl-SENSE AGENTS.

DIFFERENT VARIETIES ARE TOXIC TO DIFFERENT PARASITES.

OKAY, IS NOW A GOOD TIME TO TELL YOU I FAILED CHEM CLASS?

IS THAT GOOD?

NO.

THAT MAY HAVE BEEN OVERKILL.

WHAT HAPPENED?

WE VERIFIED WHAT WE SAW DURING PETER'S EXPERIMENTS.

THE PARASITES HAVE APPARENTLY DEVELOPED SOME SORT OF PROTECTIVE

MECHANISM AND WHEN THEY SENSE AN ATTACK THEY MULTIPLY.

NO, THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

YOU CAN'T BE THAT EASILY INFECTED.

YOU NEED BROKEN SKIN.

LET ME GET RID OF THIS.

HEY, LEXA.

TELL ME YOU GUYS GOT SOMETHING.

WE'RE COMING UP SQUAT HERE.

MAYBE.

I RAN SOME RECOGNITION SOFTWARE ON ARRIGO'S BUG,

HACKED INTO A PARASITOLOGY DATABASE.

GOT KIND OF A MATCH.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, "KIND OF"?

WELL,

ARRIGO'S BUG HAS KIND OF A DEFINING PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTIC.

IT STORES IRON IN A VERY PECULIAR MANNER IN ITS BODY.

NOW, THE ONLY OTHER PARASITE THAT DOES THAT ARE CALLED PLASMODIUMS.

PLASMODIUMS CAUSE MALARIA.

AND THIS IS EXCITING WHY?

BECAUSE PLASMODIUMS CAN BE KILLED.

NOW THERE ARE FOUR DIFFERENT PLASMODIUM GROUPS, THOUGH,

AND THEY EACH HAVE THEIR OWN CURE.

YEAH, BUT IT'S A HELL OF A GOOD WAY TO START.

I'LL ALERT ARRIGO.

JESS, ONE MORE THING: I NEED YOU TO HACK THE PRELIM AUTOPSY

REPORT ON RACHEL MORTON.

IT SHOULD BE IN THE BASE HOSPITAL FILES.

THAT'S THE FIRST VICTIM, RIGHT?

WHAT'S THAT ALL ABOUT?

LOOK, IT'S A LONG SHOT - JUST HUMOUR ME.

ALL RIGHT.

BRENNAN?

OKAY, FIRST OF ALL, I GOT THE AUTOPSY REPORT YOU WERE LOOKING FOR.

I'M SENDING IT TO YOU NOW OVER A SECURED CHANNEL.

OKAY, WHAT ABOUT THE MALARIA ISSUE?

LOOKS PROMISING.

THERE'S A NEW TREATMENT THAT INVOLVES DOSING THE HOST WITH

ROTATING ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS.

IT CAUSES THE IRON IN THE PARASITE'S BODY TO TWIST, RUPTURING THEM.

SO YOU CAN FRY THE PARASITES WITHOUT HARMING THE HOSTS?

YOU GOT IT, BUT ONLY IF IT'S DONE WITH EXACTLY THE RIGHT

FREQUENCY AND PULSE.

OTHERWISE IT COULD BE DEADLY.

HEY, HOLD ON.

- WHAT?

SENSOR'S SHOWING INCOMING PLANES LOCKED INTO YOUR POSITION.

WHAT PLANES?

I DON'T KNOW.

THEY'RE NOT ON ANY REGISTERED FLIGHT PLANS.

BOMBERS.

SHALIMAR, WHERE ARE YOU?

MAIN FLOOR OFFICES.

I CAN'T FIND BRENNAN.

NO, IT'S TOO LATE.

YOU NEED TO GET AWAY FROM HIM.

SHALIMAR, WHAT'S GOING ON?

I DON'T KNOW. I THINK I HEARD HIM.

NO. YOU CAN'T GET CLOSE TO HIM - HE'S TOO STRONG.

HE WON'T HURT ME.

LOOKS LIKE HE'S TURNED.

I THINK WE HAVE IT.

WE THINK WE FOUND A WAY TO TREAT HIM.

WELL, YOU KNOW THE FENCE?

I COULD GET TO IT, WHY?

OKAY, WELL, YOU NEED TO GET BRENNAN TO FORM A TESLA COIL.

AND THROW HIM AGAINST THE ELECTRICAL FENCE.

YOU CRAZY? THAT'LL KILL HIM.

WE KNOW. IT WOULD KILL A NORMAL PERSON, BUT WITH BRENNAN,

WE THINK IT'LL FORM A MAGNETIC FIELD THAT WILL RUPTURE THE PARASITES IN HIS SYSTEM.

LOOK, THESE THINGS ARE GOING TO KILL HIM ANYWAY, SHALIMAR.

YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF THERE BEFORE HE KILLS YOU, TOO.

I CAN'T RISK IT.

YOU HAVE NO CHOICE.

IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO SAVE HIM.

HEY. HEY... YOU OKAY?

LEXA, IT WORKED.

OKAY. BOTH OF YOU GUYS GET BACK HERE NOW, SOON AS YOU CAN.

WE STILL DON'T KNOW IF IT WORKS ON NON-MUTANTS.

YOU CALLED AN AIR STRIKE! WHY?

THE INFECTION HAS SPREAD TOO FAR.

BASED ON WHAT?

YOUR PROFOUND UNDERSTANDING OF PARASITOLOGY?

THE INFECTED HAVE A RAISED BODY TEMPERATURE.

THEY SHOW UP RED ON THERMAL IMAGES.

THIS IS A SATELLITE SCAN OF THE BASE AS OF FORTY-EIGHT HOURS AGO.

THIS ONE IS FROM AN HOUR AGO.

LESS THAN FIFTY PEOPLE ON THAT BASE ARE LEFT UNINFECTED.

BUT THEY CAN'T GET OFF THE BASE.

YOU SAID SO YOURSELF.

THAT'S AN ASSUMPTION, NOT A CERTAINTY.

HOW MANY THOUSANDS OF LIVES ARE YOU WILLING TO GAMBLE ON THAT?

WE ARE VERY CLOSE TO AN ANTIDOTE.

I PROMISE YOU.

I'M SORRY, SON, BUT YOUR FRIENDS KNEW THE RISKS GOING IN.

GIVE THEM MORE TIME.

PLEASE.

THE ORDER'S BEEN GIVEN.

THEY'RE OUT OF TIME.

JESSE, HOW MUCH TIME DO WE HAVE?

YOU DON'T HAVE LONG.

I'D SAY ABOUT TEN MINUTES.

OH, DAMMIT.

LOOK, THIS ISN'T HOPELESS.

LET'S JUST THINK THIS THROUGH, OKAY?

NOW, IF YOU CAN ESTABLISH THAT THIS WORKS ON NON-MUTANTS,

AND FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO IT LARGE SCALE, THEN I CAN KILL THE

FENCE AND YOU CAN GET THE HELL OUT OF THERE.

YEAH, BUT THAT DOESN'T SAVE ANYBODY ELSE.

WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO EVACUATE IN TIME FOR THE DROP.

LET ME WORRY ABOUT THE BOMBS.

YOU TAKE CARE OF THE INFECTION, I'LL TAKE CARE OF KLEIN.

GOOD?

OH, LET'S JUST HOPE THIS WORKS.

FASTER!

DON'T STOP.

THE PARASITES ARE RIPPING APART.

IT WORKED.

WELL, DON'T GET TOO EXCITED.

THERE'S NO WAY I'M GONNA BE ABLE TO DO THAT WITH ALL THE

INFECTED THAT ARE LEFT.

WELL, WHAT IF WE FIND YOU A POWER SOURCE TO FEED FROM?

HEY, JESS?

I CAN DIRECT THE BASE'S POWER FROM THE FENCE BACK INTO THE

INSTALLATION, BUT KLEIN'S MEN WILL BE ALL OVER US THE MOMENT

THEY REALISE THE FENCE IS DOWN.

WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO GET ALL THE INFECTED IN ONE SPOT SO

WE CAN GET THEM ALL WITH ONE BLAST.

WE NEED BAIT.

BLOOD. IT'S WHAT DRAWS THEM.

UNINFECTED BLOOD TO PASS THE PARASITES ONTO,

ESPECIALLY IF THEY RUN OUT OF NEW HOSTS.

I HAVE BLOOD IN THE FRIDGE.

THERE'S A GENERATOR IN THE BASEMENT OF THE BUILDING

YOU'RE IN RIGHT NOW.

I CAN GIVE YOU... FIVE MINUTES.

ALL RIGHT. WE'RE ON OUR WAY.

COMING?

NO. ACTUALLY, THERE WAS SOMETHING I GOTTA TAKE CARE OF HERE.

THEY'RE COMING. LOTS OF 'EM.

PETER'S SISTER'S AUTOPSY RESULTS.

HOW DID YOU KNOW?

YOU SAID THE PARASITE COULD ONLY BE PASSED THROUGH OPEN WOUNDS.

WELL, ACCORDING TO THESE PHOTOS, RACHEL'S ONLY WOUND WAS A

NEEDLE PUNCTURE - IN HER BACK.

YOU COULDN'T EVEN DO IT TO HER FACE.

I'M NOT A MONSTER.

I THOUGHT I COULD FIND A CURE FOR HER.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT IT WOULD GET OUT.

HUH, RATIONALIZATIONS ARE A BEAUTIFUL THING, AREN'T THEY?

I HAD NO CHOICE.

THIS DISCOVERY COULD CHANGE THE FACE OF WAR.

IT WOULD MAKE THIS COUNTRY INVINCIBLE.

WHAT? BY INFECTING PEOPLE IN SOMEONE ELSE'S COUNTRY?

JUST THINK OF THE LIVES WE WOULD BE SAVING HERE.

WHY DON'T YOU THINK ABOUT THE PEOPLE YOU KILLED TODAY?

THIS ISN'T ABOUT SAVING LIVES FOR YOU.

THIS IS ABOUT GOING DOWN IN THE HISTORY BOOKS, ISN'T IT?

COME ON, BREN, THEY'RE ON US.

NO. WE NEED TO WAIT.

THEY NEED TO ALL BE IN THE ROOM.

I ONLY GOT ONE SHOT AT THIS.

BRENNAN? I'M AT THE TRANSFORMER'S CONTROLS NOW.

POWERING IT UP.

NOW, JESS!

THE FENCE IS OUT?

GET OUT THERE. SHOOT ANYONE ON SIGHT.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?

I SHOULD GIVE YOU TO THOSE THINGS OUT THERE.

LET THEM HAVE THEIR WAY WITH YOU.

HEY, YOU OKAY?

I HAVE ANOTHER IDEA.

EVERYTHING WOULD'VE BEEN FINE...

IF YOU WOULD'VE JUST STAYED OUT OF IT.

NICE.

THEY'RE COMING OUT!

ON MY SIGNAL.

HOLD YOUR FIRE! HOLD YOUR FIRE!

WHAT IS THIS?

YOU SAID THAT NO ONE GOT OUT UNTIL THEY HAD PROOF THAT

THE THREAT OF CONTAGION WAS OVER.

THERE'S YOUR PROOF.

STAND DOWN.

I THINK YOU MIGHT WANT TO CALL OFF THOSE BOMBS.

THIS IS MAJOR GENERAL KLEIN.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

YES.

COULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN MUCH CLOSER.

ARRIGO?

WELL, MAYBE GUYS LIKE THIS WILL FINALLY LEARN.

MESS WITH MOTHER NATURE, SHE MESSES BACK.

YEAH, AND I WONDER HOW LONG WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY FOR IT?
