You want to learn the bow?

Then let one of our best archers

teach you, my daughter.

The day we fell down here, I was actually on my way

to a job interview.

This is their business card.

I went back out to the chopper,

and I got the tail number.

It's from Ladera Air Force Base.

That's in Los Angeles.

If it's in the same place it was up there,

then I can find it down here.

If we go to that base, maybe we find Maya Schmidt.

She could help bring our families back.

When are you going to give this up, Gavin?

You don't pull yourself together,

you're going to lose your family.

Don't you think I know that?

About a year before we got down here, me and my wife,

we were going through a tough time,

I have a brain tumor.

Since I was diagnosed, I just pushed my wife away.

She would always tell me I never put her first,

and she was right.

Can you tell me what date it is?

September 12, 2021.

Unbelievable.

I found a connection between Maya Schmidt

and the top secret military program being run

out of Ladera Air Force Base.

I think we need to find someone

who knows more about that program.

I know exactly who we can talk to.

Who the hell are you two?

Why did you bail me out?

♪

It's a lot to take in.

I know.

But I truly believe the three of us

can help to bring everyone home.

If what you're saying is true,

shouldn't we be warning our families,

warning everyone we know?

That sinkhole won't open for weeks.

Right now, we need your help.

I'm sorry.

I don't know how I can help anyone.

I just time traveled to 2021 from the Ice Age,

and you worked on a classified project

at Ladera Air Base studying quantum physics.

I believe there's a connection there.

Look, maybe Ladera has the answers we're looking for.

Can you get us on that base?

No.

I've been to Ladera a thousand times.

I don't remember anything about a secret project, OK?

I can't explain the gaps in your memory yet.

And I understand why this is frightening.

But if you explore this with us, it will be worth it.

The lives of the people you love depend on this.

I have to go to the bathroom.

♪

Sure about him?

I'm sure about the man that I knew.

But this Gavin, he's hiding in a bottle.

His memory loss, that separation from his family,

not to mention what a trauma he endured on this project,

it's all things he's trying to suppress,

and we're asking him to do the exact opposite.

What do you think he's going to do?

Either our entreaty will help pull him out of his tailspin

or it will push him further into it.

I'm going to check on him.

♪

He's not there.

Do you see him?

No.

Well, I guess we know which way he chose.

One thing I learned as a pilot is

memorize the terrain you fly.

I used to make a milk run to Ladera Air Base every week.

This is a map to the base.

The terrain is going to look a lot different in 10,000 BC.

Not the mountains.

That's Santiago Peak.

You can see it from the fort.

Pilots use it as a navigation marker.

Ladera Air Base is 15 miles west, right there.

And you really think Maya Schmidt will be there?

Look, they already captured her daughter.

Maybe they've got her, too.

Sam, this is our best shot at finding out

what Maya knows about Eve, Josh, and Riley, all of it.

So what's the rescue plan, fellas?

Levi and Petra are also on that base.

There's no rescue plan today.

No, this is just for recon.

We'll bring them back next time.

OK, yeah.

Stay safe out there, all right?

Yeah.

♪

You've been pretty damn quiet.

Everything OK?

Yeah, fine.

Just keep moving.

Yeah, that's not going to work for me.

We're approaching enemy territory.

I need you watching my back.

So if you're not 100% right now, I got to know.

OK, the closer we get to this base,

the more I get the feeling we're in danger.

Well, we knew that much when we started.

I know.

It's different, like there's something I should remember

about this place, but I can't.

There's another hole in your memory?

I just don't know what I'm trying to remember.

All I know is everything is telling me

we should turn back, and I don't know why.

One of the ways I survived Afghanistan

was trusting gut instincts, and not just my own.

We don't take another step until we

figure out what's going on.

♪

I can't believe that worked.

Do not move.

I just finished sweeping the area.

Still no sign of him.

Maybe we try his home?

No, no, Gavin's already moved out of the house at this point.

He is in the depths of his alcoholism.

Given that and how he left,

I'd say he's probably at the nearest bar.

There's a half a dozen of them around here.

How about I take these three?

Are you OK there? - Yeah.

You've been checking your watch all morning.

Look, it's just, seeing Gavin like this, it reminds me

of the dark place I was in my life right about now.

I get it.

Those people came for her and took her away.

Where?

Listen, we'll help you find Petra, OK?

But I need to ask you some questions first.

I got a message saying you were the key to helping

me find my wife, Eve.

You know where she is?

Gavin, I have no idea.

I didn't know your wife was missing.

No, no, no, no, no.

I was very specifically given your call sign.

I need to know why.

Hey, why would someone tell me that?

I'm sorry. I don't know what to say.

Hold on.

Let's start from the beginning.

This classified program you two worked on together,

what was it about?

Right.

Well given that we're standing in 10,000 BC,

I don't think it'll come as a great shock

when I tell you that the government was conducting

time travel experiments at the Ladera Air Base,

and you and a handful of pilots

were at the center of testing that technology.

What was the objective?

Weaponization.

Imagine your unit was bombed, a tragedy.

But what if he could send a plane

playing back in time and destroy the enemy

before they attacked?

It would change war forever.

What you're saying is on a level

with breaking the sound barrier or building the atom bomb.

I should remember that. - You should.

But it was my job to make sure you didn't.

The program valued secrecy above all else.

Once an asset's work was complete,

I was tasked with making sure they didn't

remember any part of it.

How?

Over the years, we've perfected a biological cocktail

that induces targeted memory loss.

I have a year of my life that I can't remember.

I am truly sorry.

- That's not good enough! - Hey, hey.

You're right.

I know that now.

I know that firsthand.

Firsthand?

What does that mean?

I was going to become a whistleblower,

expose the project.

But before I could, I was caught.

Petra and I were locked up and brought here, but we escaped.

We ran, but we got separated.

It doesn't make any sense.

Why would someone tell me that you could find Eve, huh?

Maybe it's about something I made you forget.

There could be a way to find out.

You're saying there's a way to bring back my memories?

I'm saying I can try.

I feel that way all the time.

After my accident, I was told there was

Not by my mom.

You know what she would say about those people?

Screw them.

I wish my mom was like that.

What does your mom think of you being a warrior?

Actually, I think I see a bit of you in him,

the same calm under pressure, the same ability

to get along with everyone.

The same desire to sit on the Leadership Council?

Mm.

I know what you are doing.

It's only fair that we have a voice on the Council.

And I'm only pushing Lucas because he'd

be good at the job.

But also you love him,

and love blinds people.

Not when it comes to this.

Lucas isn't who anyone expected would lead us.

When he first showed up here,

he wasn't the best person at all.

But then he made a decision to change,

to be more than what he was.

With your help.

Yeah.

I helped him live what he said.

And then I watched him grow into a person who everyone

agreed should speak for us.

He's fair, he's honest, and he wants

what's best for everyone.

That's the kind of person you should want on your Council.

It is fascinating to learn how a person

finds the means to grow.

How many boar have you killed?

None.
