1
00:00:17,685 --> 00:00:20,146
What in the name of little
billy goats are you doing?
2
00:00:20,230 --> 00:00:21,874
I woke up early and
I couldn't go back to sleep,
3
00:00:21,898 --> 00:00:24,776
so I started
reading your novel.
4
00:00:24,859 --> 00:00:28,530
Hold on.
I'm almost finished.
5
00:00:28,613 --> 00:00:31,533
Well, I-I on the other hand
am nowhere near finished.
6
00:00:37,288 --> 00:00:41,042
Um, you know,
several early scenes
7
00:00:41,125 --> 00:00:42,418
lack context
intentionally,
8
00:00:42,502 --> 00:00:44,963
which will be made clear
in the subsequent
9
00:00:45,046 --> 00:00:46,589
and as-of-now-unwritten
chapters...
10
00:00:46,673 --> 00:00:47,715
Shh!
11
00:00:52,053 --> 00:00:53,972
I'm merely just trying to
retroactively
12
00:00:54,055 --> 00:00:55,807
manage your expectations
is all.
13
00:01:03,648 --> 00:01:05,400
I love it.
14
00:01:05,483 --> 00:01:07,151
And I'm really
proud of you.
15
00:01:07,235 --> 00:01:09,571
Oh.
16
00:01:09,654 --> 00:01:11,406
Oh, I'm gonna be
late for work.
17
00:01:21,749 --> 00:01:25,670
You know, uh, I was thinking
about you yesterday
18
00:01:25,753 --> 00:01:27,593
while I was getting
my knives sharpened, and...
19
00:01:27,630 --> 00:01:29,924
Should I
be alarmed here?
20
00:01:30,008 --> 00:01:32,176
Uh, no.
The thought which sprang to mind
21
00:01:32,260 --> 00:01:36,097
was decidedly
not homicidal.
22
00:01:36,180 --> 00:01:38,433
At any rate,
this particular cutler
23
00:01:38,516 --> 00:01:40,310
also happens
to be a key cutter.
24
00:01:49,902 --> 00:01:53,865
I want to very much see
more of you.
25
00:01:53,948 --> 00:01:57,160
And with your job taking up
so much of your time as of late,
26
00:01:57,243 --> 00:02:00,204
I just figured this might
make things a little bit easier.
27
00:02:00,288 --> 00:02:03,958
In case it is not clear,
it is a key to my apartment.
28
00:02:08,838 --> 00:02:11,591
Stephanie,
29
00:02:11,674 --> 00:02:13,343
I love you.
30
00:02:19,974 --> 00:02:21,476
I love you, too.
31
00:02:42,747 --> 00:02:44,082
So, things went well?
32
00:02:44,165 --> 00:02:46,626
Well, to put it bluntly,
33
00:02:46,709 --> 00:02:48,670
I'm meeting her
for ice cream at 17:30,
34
00:02:48,753 --> 00:02:52,006
and I'm still uncertain
as to my follow-up move.
35
00:02:52,090 --> 00:02:54,842
But I can recognize that
what transpired
36
00:02:54,926 --> 00:02:57,178
was a positive outcome.
37
00:02:57,261 --> 00:02:59,222
I have so little
frame of reference,
38
00:02:59,305 --> 00:03:01,599
I cannot hold it conceivable
what comes next.
39
00:03:01,683 --> 00:03:02,850
Do you love her?
40
00:03:02,934 --> 00:03:04,852
A strong affirmative.
41
00:03:04,936 --> 00:03:06,688
And she has said
that she reciprocates.
42
00:03:06,771 --> 00:03:08,940
Then relax.
43
00:03:09,023 --> 00:03:10,316
I'm serious.
44
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,777
When a woman tells you
that she loves you,
45
00:03:12,860 --> 00:03:14,195
believe her.
46
00:04:40,531 --> 00:04:43,034
Stephanie.
It's Eugene.
47
00:04:46,621 --> 00:04:48,122
Are you there?
48
00:04:51,793 --> 00:04:53,294
Stephanie!
49
00:04:58,883 --> 00:05:01,511
Stephanie!
50
00:05:01,594 --> 00:05:02,720
Stephanie, it's Eugene.
51
00:05:02,804 --> 00:05:04,347
Are you there?
52
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,945
Stephanie!
53
00:05:19,028 --> 00:05:20,363
It's Eugene.
54
00:05:30,331 --> 00:05:31,999
Are you in there, Stephanie?
55
00:06:24,260 --> 00:06:26,137
Looks good.
Put it to bed.
56
00:06:32,727 --> 00:06:35,438
Hold on.
57
00:06:35,521 --> 00:06:36,681
She says
it doesn't look good.
58
00:06:36,731 --> 00:06:38,941
Yeah, I got that one.
59
00:06:42,445 --> 00:06:47,491
"Trooper Davis has a story
to tell.
60
00:06:47,575 --> 00:06:48,575
He wouldn't risk
getting kicked out
61
00:06:48,576 --> 00:06:51,288
of Commonwealth
for no reason."
62
00:06:51,370 --> 00:06:52,997
That's right.
He didn't.
63
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:54,391
We have a statement
from his doctors
64
00:06:54,415 --> 00:06:56,709
backing up
his PTSD claim.
65
00:06:56,792 --> 00:06:58,502
"Come on.
66
00:06:58,586 --> 00:07:00,922
I don't trust the military
doctors any more
67
00:07:01,005 --> 00:07:04,175
than I trust
the military command.
68
00:07:04,258 --> 00:07:08,346
Something happened
to Tyler Davis.
69
00:07:08,429 --> 00:07:12,350
Something that he blames
Governor Milton for.
70
00:07:12,433 --> 00:07:17,521
Something worth confronting her
in public over.
71
00:07:17,605 --> 00:07:20,066
And they clearly have a reason
for suppressing the truth."
72
00:07:20,149 --> 00:07:21,943
That's one
interpretation.
73
00:07:22,026 --> 00:07:24,570
The other is that Tyler Davis
had a mental-health crisis.
74
00:07:24,654 --> 00:07:26,280
And only one of
those interpretations
75
00:07:26,364 --> 00:07:27,740
has the facts
to support it.
76
00:07:31,911 --> 00:07:35,164
"He spoke of thousands
more like him.
77
00:07:35,247 --> 00:07:38,876
What does that mean?
78
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:40,461
We should be..."
79
00:07:57,687 --> 00:08:00,272
"We should be printing
what really happened
80
00:08:00,356 --> 00:08:02,525
at the masquerade ball.
81
00:08:02,608 --> 00:08:04,735
But, instead, you want
to paraphrase
82
00:08:04,819 --> 00:08:06,904
what Governor Milton said
in her press release."
83
00:08:06,988 --> 00:08:07,989
No, Connie.
84
00:08:08,072 --> 00:08:09,281
I want you
to paraphrase
85
00:08:09,365 --> 00:08:10,700
Governor Milton's
press release
86
00:08:10,783 --> 00:08:13,077
so that the next time,
I don't have to.
87
00:08:19,500 --> 00:08:21,144
Well, if no one's seen her
and no one's talked to her,
88
00:08:21,168 --> 00:08:22,795
how can she have
called in sick?
89
00:08:22,878 --> 00:08:24,296
I never said she did.
90
00:08:24,380 --> 00:08:25,524
All I know is,
I was told to be here
91
00:08:25,548 --> 00:08:28,217
because
she didn't show up.
92
00:08:28,300 --> 00:08:29,802
You mind?
93
00:09:04,378 --> 00:09:05,880
This is a private room.
94
00:09:09,300 --> 00:09:13,012
"Tyler Davis...
does he have a lawyer?
95
00:09:13,095 --> 00:09:14,972
What are the charges
against him?"
96
00:09:25,608 --> 00:09:27,068
This is C.A.
97
00:09:27,151 --> 00:09:28,879
We've been asked to perform
a wellness check.
98
00:09:31,530 --> 00:09:33,282
Please open the door.
99
00:09:46,212 --> 00:09:49,173
She's not there.
100
00:09:49,256 --> 00:09:51,592
Then I'd like to make
a statement immediately,
101
00:09:51,675 --> 00:09:53,875
recount the details of her
last-knowns on the record now
102
00:09:53,928 --> 00:09:55,846
while this is still
fresh in my mind.
103
00:09:55,930 --> 00:09:57,598
Sure.
Come down to the station.
104
00:09:57,681 --> 00:09:59,475
I'll help you fill out
the paperwork.
105
00:10:42,393 --> 00:10:44,895
How often do you
take trips like this?
106
00:10:44,979 --> 00:10:47,982
Not as often
as I'd like.
107
00:10:48,065 --> 00:10:51,652
This probably sounds crazy,
but I feel like
108
00:10:51,735 --> 00:10:53,296
I'm better out here
than I am in the city.
109
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,366
It doesn't sound crazy
at all.
110
00:10:57,449 --> 00:10:59,910
A lot of my people
feel that way, too.
111
00:10:59,994 --> 00:11:02,913
You still see this
as your people and my people.
112
00:11:02,997 --> 00:11:04,582
I want you to see
how this place works,
113
00:11:04,665 --> 00:11:09,879
because I want you
to be a part of it.
114
00:11:09,962 --> 00:11:13,549
I've done fairly well,
all things considered,
115
00:11:13,632 --> 00:11:16,677
but let's just say
I didn't start out on the top.
116
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,222
Is that where
you are now?
117
00:11:20,306 --> 00:11:21,724
Hardly.
118
00:11:21,807 --> 00:11:24,768
Governor Milton
runs the city.
119
00:11:24,852 --> 00:11:27,730
But I know how it runs.
120
00:11:27,813 --> 00:11:30,441
Because you started out
at the bottom.
121
00:11:30,524 --> 00:11:35,112
I proved myself to the Milton
family a long time ago.
122
00:11:35,196 --> 00:11:37,156
If you're in with
the right people, Carol,
123
00:11:37,239 --> 00:11:40,409
the sky's the limit.
124
00:11:40,492 --> 00:11:42,637
And one of the things you learn
as you're climbing your way up
125
00:11:42,661 --> 00:11:45,456
is that there are two types
of people in any organization.
126
00:11:45,539 --> 00:11:47,875
On the one hand,
you've got the mercenaries.
127
00:11:47,958 --> 00:11:50,294
They're in it for the money
and whatever psychological itch
128
00:11:50,377 --> 00:11:53,505
their position
allows them to scratch.
129
00:11:53,589 --> 00:11:57,718
And on the other,
you have the patriots,
130
00:11:57,801 --> 00:12:01,096
the true believers,
the ones who want to do good.
131
00:12:01,180 --> 00:12:02,908
And whether they are or not
might be up to debate,
132
00:12:02,932 --> 00:12:04,252
but in their hearts,
they're there
133
00:12:04,308 --> 00:12:07,937
because they believe
in the organization.
134
00:12:08,020 --> 00:12:09,480
Is that why I'm here?
135
00:12:09,563 --> 00:12:12,358
You want to make
a true believer out of me?
136
00:12:12,441 --> 00:12:13,609
I read your file.
137
00:12:13,692 --> 00:12:14,985
You're here
because you're smart.
138
00:12:15,069 --> 00:12:16,338
I think you'll be
able to help me
139
00:12:16,362 --> 00:12:18,989
deal with this asshole.
140
00:12:19,073 --> 00:12:20,824
What you get out of it
is up to you.
141
00:12:58,779 --> 00:12:59,947
What are we?
142
00:13:00,030 --> 00:13:01,532
Drug dealers
or smugglers?
143
00:13:04,076 --> 00:13:05,452
We're smugglers.
144
00:13:05,536 --> 00:13:08,622
But it's not
what you think.
145
00:13:08,706 --> 00:13:10,767
This place is not exactly
a part of the Commonwealth,
146
00:13:10,791 --> 00:13:13,585
but they need us,
and we need them.
147
00:13:13,669 --> 00:13:17,047
We use the poppies to make
opium for the hospital.
148
00:13:17,131 --> 00:13:20,384
Things will start looking pretty
bleak there if we run out.
149
00:13:20,467 --> 00:13:22,219
I make sure
that doesn't happen.
150
00:13:22,303 --> 00:13:24,805
But, sometimes, that means
dealing with guys like Moto.
151
00:13:24,888 --> 00:13:26,557
I told you
what was gonna happen.
152
00:13:29,310 --> 00:13:30,561
And I asked you
to manage it.
153
00:13:30,644 --> 00:13:33,397
I talked him into processing
this last batch.
154
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:34,857
Best I could do.
155
00:13:34,940 --> 00:13:37,735
I told you they're gonna
hold the harvest hostage.
156
00:13:37,818 --> 00:13:38,986
They want a raise.
157
00:13:39,069 --> 00:13:40,946
They swear they'll let it
rot without one.
158
00:13:43,115 --> 00:13:47,494
Well,
let's see what we can do.
159
00:13:58,005 --> 00:13:59,256
Hey.
160
00:13:59,340 --> 00:14:02,009
We're with
the Tribune.
161
00:14:02,092 --> 00:14:04,553
You're in number 2.
162
00:14:08,724 --> 00:14:11,560
Yeah, he said wait
for recon to burn.
163
00:14:11,643 --> 00:14:14,438
Alright.
164
00:14:14,521 --> 00:14:16,065
Alright,
let's march it down.
165
00:14:19,860 --> 00:14:21,779
There's still some room
over here.
166
00:14:28,577 --> 00:14:30,162
Let me know
when we're ready.
167
00:14:45,552 --> 00:14:48,138
Alright.
168
00:14:49,556 --> 00:14:52,017
Let's roll.
169
00:14:59,274 --> 00:15:00,567
Hey.
170
00:15:00,651 --> 00:15:03,362
I haven't
seen you around.
171
00:15:03,445 --> 00:15:04,947
How are you holding up?
172
00:15:05,030 --> 00:15:07,866
I'm functioning within
to-be-expected parameters.
173
00:15:07,950 --> 00:15:08,742
Yeah, no,
I can see that.
174
00:15:08,743 --> 00:15:10,327
Uh,
so can you let me in?
175
00:15:10,411 --> 00:15:11,995
I brought lasagna.
176
00:15:32,391 --> 00:15:34,143
This is an empty dish.
177
00:15:34,226 --> 00:15:36,270
Oh, yeah, sorry.
178
00:15:36,353 --> 00:15:38,230
I didn't make lasagna.
179
00:15:38,313 --> 00:15:42,734
People just always have to let
you in if you're carrying food.
180
00:15:42,818 --> 00:15:46,238
So, what's up?
181
00:15:51,243 --> 00:15:52,953
When the C.A.
gave up the search,
182
00:15:53,036 --> 00:15:53,952
I decided to investigate
183
00:15:53,954 --> 00:15:56,206
Stephanie's disappearance
myself.
184
00:16:01,503 --> 00:16:04,339
Truth be told,
as the hours tick by
185
00:16:04,423 --> 00:16:06,884
with nary a bread crumb
to be found,
186
00:16:06,967 --> 00:16:09,011
I let my despair
get the best of me.
187
00:16:11,847 --> 00:16:14,475
That is, until a chance
encounter put me on the trail.
188
00:16:27,946 --> 00:16:30,199
Sir. Sir.
189
00:16:32,284 --> 00:16:35,287
Sir, I need to talk to you.
190
00:16:35,370 --> 00:16:38,081
Please,
I need to talk...
191
00:16:43,378 --> 00:16:46,757
1634 Racine.
192
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,426
It's an apartment building
in Residential One.
193
00:16:49,510 --> 00:16:52,262
Three days ago,
you were seen...
194
00:16:52,346 --> 00:16:55,432
At 7:00 in the p.m., you were
seen coming down the stairs.
195
00:16:55,516 --> 00:16:57,017
- I don't remember this.
- Uh, wait.
196
00:16:57,100 --> 00:16:58,644
Uh, sir, sir.
197
00:16:58,727 --> 00:17:00,270
Sir, please.
198
00:17:03,857 --> 00:17:05,585
Someone near and dear
to me has gone missing,
199
00:17:05,609 --> 00:17:08,654
and you may have seen something
that might help me find her.
200
00:17:11,532 --> 00:17:13,492
Where was this?
201
00:17:13,575 --> 00:17:16,078
Residential One.
202
00:17:16,161 --> 00:17:20,749
Three days ago, at approximately
7:00 in the p.m.
203
00:17:20,832 --> 00:17:22,251
Yeah.
204
00:17:22,334 --> 00:17:23,334
At Residential One.
205
00:17:23,335 --> 00:17:24,963
I remember that now.
206
00:17:25,045 --> 00:17:27,631
I got called in to fix
a clogged sink.
207
00:17:27,714 --> 00:17:31,843
What... Do... Do you
remember seeing her there?
208
00:17:35,764 --> 00:17:39,142
Do you remember
seeing her there?
209
00:17:39,226 --> 00:17:40,811
Or anything suspicious
210
00:17:40,894 --> 00:17:44,606
in or around the premises
that night?
211
00:17:44,690 --> 00:17:46,483
No.
212
00:17:46,567 --> 00:17:48,318
We done?
213
00:17:48,402 --> 00:17:50,571
I sincerely apologize
for having troubled you.
214
00:17:50,654 --> 00:17:53,073
If there's a better time
in which we could talk...
215
00:17:55,909 --> 00:17:57,703
Needless to say,
I greeted his story
216
00:17:57,786 --> 00:18:00,038
with a great deal
of skepticism.
217
00:18:00,122 --> 00:18:02,267
There were no city service carts
on the street that night,
218
00:18:02,291 --> 00:18:04,585
nor was he wearing any sort
of identifying uniform
219
00:18:04,668 --> 00:18:05,794
or carrying any tools.
220
00:18:05,877 --> 00:18:07,546
I found it very peculiar
221
00:18:07,629 --> 00:18:09,256
that the one person
I knew was there
222
00:18:09,339 --> 00:18:10,900
the night she disappeared
happened to have
223
00:18:10,924 --> 00:18:12,342
such a flimsy alibi.
224
00:18:16,430 --> 00:18:17,723
So I started
following him.
225
00:18:23,604 --> 00:18:26,356
So, like, what's
this plumber's deal?
226
00:18:30,235 --> 00:18:33,530
To start with,
his name is Roman Calhoun.
227
00:18:36,658 --> 00:18:39,202
And he is most definitely
not a plumber.
228
00:18:44,082 --> 00:18:47,336
He mostly conducts
his business at night.
229
00:18:47,419 --> 00:18:50,547
His base of operations
is a building
230
00:18:50,631 --> 00:18:52,299
in the warehouse district,
231
00:18:52,382 --> 00:18:54,193
which purports to be a purveyor
of plumbing services
232
00:18:54,217 --> 00:18:56,720
and which, on the surface,
appears to be legitimate.
233
00:18:56,803 --> 00:19:00,641
However, they never
receive any mail.
234
00:19:00,724 --> 00:19:03,119
There's lights on at odd hours,
when they're ostensibly closed.
235
00:19:03,143 --> 00:19:04,311
And while people
go in and out
236
00:19:04,394 --> 00:19:05,812
with a fair degree
of regularity,
237
00:19:05,896 --> 00:19:08,857
it's usually just the same
four people over and over.
238
00:19:08,940 --> 00:19:11,234
They usually arrive alone
and depart shortly thereafter
239
00:19:11,318 --> 00:19:13,070
and frequently meeting
in groups of two.
240
00:19:13,153 --> 00:19:15,030
And on the one occasion
they were all together,
241
00:19:15,113 --> 00:19:17,949
they were also
met by a fifth,
242
00:19:18,033 --> 00:19:22,663
who I also believe
to be the head honcho,
243
00:19:22,746 --> 00:19:24,956
the mastermind of some sort
of rogue element
244
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,918
within the government that
Stephanie somehow ran afoul of.
245
00:19:29,753 --> 00:19:30,962
Rogue element?
246
00:19:31,046 --> 00:19:33,131
Like, you think
she was kidnapped
247
00:19:33,215 --> 00:19:35,092
by the government
or something?
248
00:19:35,175 --> 00:19:36,760
Shortly after
I began my search,
249
00:19:36,843 --> 00:19:38,154
the man who later
became known to me
250
00:19:38,178 --> 00:19:41,431
as Co-Conspirator Number Two,
a.k.a. "Beanie Hat Man,"
251
00:19:41,515 --> 00:19:43,809
showed up
to Stephanie's apartment
252
00:19:43,892 --> 00:19:47,145
with a team of movers,
collected all her belongings,
253
00:19:47,229 --> 00:19:49,815
and took them
to an unknown location.
254
00:19:49,898 --> 00:19:54,277
Then, that same day,
this was found
255
00:19:54,361 --> 00:19:57,823
in Stephanie's file
at Union Station.
256
00:19:57,906 --> 00:20:00,200
It's a work-transfer request
signed by Stephanie
257
00:20:00,283 --> 00:20:02,869
on the day
of her disappearance.
258
00:20:02,953 --> 00:20:04,764
The man who filled in for her
at the radio room
259
00:20:04,788 --> 00:20:07,916
that day told me
she gave no notice whatsoever.
260
00:20:07,999 --> 00:20:10,419
Such orders could not be
falsified or fabricated
261
00:20:10,502 --> 00:20:13,922
without direct influence
from within the halls of power.
262
00:20:14,005 --> 00:20:16,091
She knew they were
coming for her.
263
00:20:16,174 --> 00:20:18,468
When she eluded them,
they filed that false
264
00:20:18,552 --> 00:20:21,722
work transfer to cover up
her disappearance.
265
00:20:21,805 --> 00:20:23,807
They took all her belongings
to recover
266
00:20:23,890 --> 00:20:25,350
any evidence
she may have gathered,
267
00:20:25,434 --> 00:20:28,478
and now silencing her
is the last step
268
00:20:28,562 --> 00:20:30,105
in repairing that leak.
269
00:20:34,568 --> 00:20:37,988
If I'm right,
270
00:20:38,071 --> 00:20:40,574
her only hope
is for me to expose them
271
00:20:40,657 --> 00:20:42,159
before they find her.
272
00:20:47,581 --> 00:20:48,707
Good hatches this year?
273
00:20:48,790 --> 00:20:50,292
Yes, sir.
274
00:20:50,375 --> 00:20:52,669
We catch enough that I can
actually just do it for fun.
275
00:20:52,753 --> 00:20:55,714
It's nice when your hobby
is also an apocalypse skill.
276
00:20:55,797 --> 00:20:59,176
Amen to that.
277
00:20:59,259 --> 00:21:01,136
So, I can't give them
what they want,
278
00:21:01,219 --> 00:21:02,804
but maybe
we can meet halfway.
279
00:21:02,888 --> 00:21:05,849
They get a raise,
but they earn it.
280
00:21:05,932 --> 00:21:07,184
Incentives.
281
00:21:07,267 --> 00:21:09,311
Produce more,
282
00:21:09,394 --> 00:21:10,687
make more.
283
00:21:12,731 --> 00:21:14,483
Best I can do.
284
00:23:02,716 --> 00:23:04,301
See what
you need to see?
285
00:23:08,597 --> 00:23:10,932
"More than enough."
286
00:23:11,016 --> 00:23:12,326
Then this is the part
where you ask me
287
00:23:12,350 --> 00:23:14,269
the questions
they sent you.
288
00:23:27,949 --> 00:23:30,243
"It's been a month since
former trooper Tyler Davis
289
00:23:30,327 --> 00:23:33,580
has been in the hospital
under armed guard.
290
00:23:33,663 --> 00:23:37,250
What is he
being charged with?"
291
00:23:37,334 --> 00:23:39,127
That's not one
of the questions.
292
00:23:40,879 --> 00:23:42,398
"Does it have anything to do
with the fact
293
00:23:42,422 --> 00:23:46,843
that the woman he took hostage
was your sister?"
294
00:23:46,927 --> 00:23:49,387
I was wondering when you were
gonna figure that out.
295
00:23:52,432 --> 00:23:55,268
For the record,
the answer is,
296
00:23:55,352 --> 00:23:57,896
my sister don't have
a goddamn thing to do with it.
297
00:24:02,067 --> 00:24:03,985
"He was loyal,
298
00:24:04,069 --> 00:24:07,030
recommended for
early promotion...
299
00:24:07,113 --> 00:24:09,115
by you.
300
00:24:09,199 --> 00:24:11,952
And he wound up feeling like
the military
301
00:24:12,035 --> 00:24:14,704
was being manipulated
by the politicians."
302
00:24:16,998 --> 00:24:20,919
"If I was you, I would be
really interested
303
00:24:21,002 --> 00:24:24,547
in who I was risking
my life for."
304
00:24:24,631 --> 00:24:28,093
And if I were you,
I might wonder why I'm out here
305
00:24:28,176 --> 00:24:29,803
digging for answers
that we both know
306
00:24:29,886 --> 00:24:31,513
will never see
the light of day.
307
00:24:49,739 --> 00:24:52,951
Hey, Eugene,
308
00:24:53,034 --> 00:24:58,248
it's really cool,
you know?
309
00:24:58,331 --> 00:24:59,833
You doing
so much for her.
310
00:24:59,916 --> 00:25:03,461
Strike that.
Reverse that.
311
00:25:03,545 --> 00:25:06,339
I'm merely trying to repay
what I owe.
312
00:25:12,012 --> 00:25:13,805
Mm.
313
00:25:13,888 --> 00:25:15,765
I made a promise to myself
in those early days,
314
00:25:15,849 --> 00:25:18,035
back when we thought this would
all blow over in a few weeks,
315
00:25:18,059 --> 00:25:20,270
that if I lived
through this,
316
00:25:20,353 --> 00:25:23,356
I'd pursue my dream of becoming
a science-fiction author.
317
00:25:27,902 --> 00:25:30,030
I have jokingly related
that story to Stephanie
318
00:25:30,113 --> 00:25:32,782
over the radio.
319
00:25:32,866 --> 00:25:36,453
And she told me,
320
00:25:36,536 --> 00:25:38,472
"You can't wait till after
you've lived through it,
321
00:25:38,496 --> 00:25:42,917
'cause ready or not,
right now is all we've got."
322
00:25:48,089 --> 00:25:49,525
She gave me the courage
to do something
323
00:25:49,549 --> 00:25:50,884
I've always wanted to do,
324
00:25:50,967 --> 00:25:52,927
and when someone can do that
for you, well...
325
00:25:55,013 --> 00:25:58,183
...words like love
seem insufficient.
326
00:26:02,896 --> 00:26:04,522
Mm.
327
00:26:13,907 --> 00:26:15,742
Shit.
328
00:26:19,829 --> 00:26:21,456
Let's go.
329
00:26:21,539 --> 00:26:23,124
You want to break
into his apartment?
330
00:26:23,208 --> 00:26:24,918
Yeah.
331
00:26:25,001 --> 00:26:26,544
I don't want to get in trouble,
Eugene.
332
00:26:26,628 --> 00:26:28,797
I got a little job.
I got a little bed.
333
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,883
I might get a little cat.
334
00:26:31,966 --> 00:26:33,468
This is so bad.
335
00:26:33,551 --> 00:26:35,136
His Tuesday 10-mile
is ironclad.
336
00:26:35,220 --> 00:26:38,973
He'll be gone
for 90 minutes.
337
00:26:39,057 --> 00:26:40,517
Please.
338
00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,852
Princess, he's the key
339
00:26:42,936 --> 00:26:44,246
to cracking this
whole thing wide open.
340
00:26:44,270 --> 00:26:45,647
I just know it.
341
00:26:56,157 --> 00:26:58,243
Sorry we can't stay
for the fish fry.
342
00:26:58,326 --> 00:26:59,369
Next time, my friend.
343
00:26:59,452 --> 00:27:00,703
Yeah, deal.
344
00:27:09,254 --> 00:27:12,173
Well,
what do you think?
345
00:27:16,094 --> 00:27:18,638
He's robbing them.
346
00:27:18,721 --> 00:27:21,724
I talked to one
of the lieutenants.
347
00:27:21,808 --> 00:27:23,935
He's pocketing the money
that you give them for raises
348
00:27:24,018 --> 00:27:25,578
and beating them
to keep quiet about it.
349
00:27:25,645 --> 00:27:28,189
He went too far
the other night,
350
00:27:28,273 --> 00:27:29,858
and that's why
they're on strike.
351
00:27:35,947 --> 00:27:37,740
They'll get their money back
352
00:27:37,824 --> 00:27:41,327
and the raise
I just promised them.
353
00:27:41,411 --> 00:27:43,746
What about Moto?
354
00:27:43,830 --> 00:27:47,292
Well, I'm not gonna go fishing
with him anymore,
355
00:27:47,375 --> 00:27:48,918
that's for sure.
356
00:27:52,255 --> 00:27:53,756
Take him into custody now.
357
00:28:01,681 --> 00:28:02,974
Hey!
What... What the hell?
358
00:28:03,057 --> 00:28:04,976
Get your hands
off of me.
359
00:28:05,059 --> 00:28:06,936
Hornsby!
360
00:28:07,020 --> 00:28:08,521
You mother-pussbucket!
361
00:28:48,686 --> 00:28:50,063
Hey, Eugene?
362
00:28:50,146 --> 00:28:52,649
What's this guy do when it rains
on his 10-mile run?
363
00:28:52,732 --> 00:28:54,418
Well, given our recent
lack of precipitation,
364
00:28:54,442 --> 00:28:57,028
I've not yet
gathered that data.
365
00:28:57,111 --> 00:28:59,489
Well, you have now.
He's here.
366
00:28:59,572 --> 00:29:02,242
We have to
get out of here.
367
00:29:02,325 --> 00:29:03,952
Count off his range.
368
00:29:04,035 --> 00:29:05,035
What?
369
00:29:05,078 --> 00:29:08,164
His range...
50, 40, 30.
370
00:29:08,248 --> 00:29:09,499
I'm not good at that.
371
00:29:09,582 --> 00:29:11,292
Just tell me
how much time I have.
372
00:29:11,376 --> 00:29:13,711
Dude, I am telling you
how much time you have,
373
00:29:13,795 --> 00:29:15,255
and you have no time.
374
00:29:35,984 --> 00:29:37,652
I saw them
on the ladder outside.
375
00:29:37,735 --> 00:29:39,195
Couldn't have
gotten that far.
376
00:29:39,279 --> 00:29:41,531
Hey! There they are!
That's them!
377
00:30:05,638 --> 00:30:07,032
General Mercer,
how can I help you?
378
00:30:07,056 --> 00:30:09,058
Where is the patient
who was in M-33
379
00:30:09,142 --> 00:30:11,394
and the soldiers
that were with him?
380
00:30:11,477 --> 00:30:14,022
There's no one
in M-33.
381
00:30:14,105 --> 00:30:17,275
I realize that.
382
00:30:17,358 --> 00:30:21,070
I want to know what happened
to the man who was in there.
383
00:30:21,154 --> 00:30:24,407
He can't be moved
without my authorization.
384
00:30:24,490 --> 00:30:26,409
I'm sorry, but, apparently,
he can.
385
00:30:35,501 --> 00:30:38,629
I'm truly sorry that
I manipulated you
386
00:30:38,713 --> 00:30:41,049
into accompanying me on
this lame-brained misadventure.
387
00:30:41,132 --> 00:30:43,134
I fully intend to make known
that you had no role
388
00:30:43,217 --> 00:30:46,763
in planning my scheme and no
witting part in its execution.
389
00:30:54,187 --> 00:30:55,313
Hey.
390
00:30:55,396 --> 00:30:57,023
I just got back in town.
391
00:31:00,068 --> 00:31:02,737
What the hell,
you two?
392
00:31:02,820 --> 00:31:07,283
Well, Roman Calhoun is
exactly who he says he is.
393
00:31:07,367 --> 00:31:09,160
He's a plumber at Ruby's.
394
00:31:11,287 --> 00:31:13,206
They've been a little lazy
with the paperwork,
395
00:31:13,289 --> 00:31:15,583
but they do have
a contract with the city.
396
00:31:15,666 --> 00:31:19,379
And, according to this invoice,
Mr. Calhoun was sent
397
00:31:19,462 --> 00:31:21,089
to Stephanie's building
on the night
398
00:31:21,172 --> 00:31:26,636
you saw him there
to fix a sink in a work area.
399
00:31:26,719 --> 00:31:30,223
But what about the kidnap kit
we found in his closet?
400
00:31:30,306 --> 00:31:32,016
Those weapons
are illegal.
401
00:31:32,100 --> 00:31:33,100
For you.
402
00:31:33,101 --> 00:31:35,437
He's a full citizen.
He has a license.
403
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:36,813
A lot of us have go bags,
404
00:31:36,896 --> 00:31:38,981
even people who have been here
for years.
405
00:31:45,655 --> 00:31:47,198
I told Calhoun your story,
406
00:31:47,281 --> 00:31:48,950
told him about Stephanie,
407
00:31:49,033 --> 00:31:50,827
explained everything
you've been through,
408
00:31:50,910 --> 00:31:53,287
the mental anguish
that it's caused you,
409
00:31:53,371 --> 00:31:57,333
and he has agreed
to not press charges.
410
00:31:57,417 --> 00:32:00,545
But you have to
leave him alone.
411
00:32:00,628 --> 00:32:04,006
Oh, and sign that.
412
00:32:04,090 --> 00:32:07,218
It states you were
emotionally distraught
413
00:32:07,301 --> 00:32:08,803
and in a paranoid state
414
00:32:08,886 --> 00:32:11,347
following the disappearance
of your girlfriend.
415
00:32:11,431 --> 00:32:14,350
I'm sorry this didn't lead
where you thought it would.
416
00:32:14,434 --> 00:32:17,061
You were wrong about Calhoun,
and you need to accept that,
417
00:32:17,145 --> 00:32:20,940
because if you don't,
I'm not gonna be able to help.
418
00:32:55,057 --> 00:32:56,934
I should have known.
419
00:32:57,018 --> 00:32:59,353
The conspiracy goes deeper
than I initially thought.
420
00:32:59,437 --> 00:33:00,855
Dude,
none of this is happening!
421
00:33:00,938 --> 00:33:02,648
Stephanie
broke up with you.
422
00:33:05,860 --> 00:33:07,153
That's utterly absurd.
423
00:33:07,236 --> 00:33:08,755
Look, I've been thinking it,
but, you know,
424
00:33:08,779 --> 00:33:10,907
what if you were right
about this Calhoun guy?
425
00:33:10,990 --> 00:33:13,868
But the dude is a plumber,
Euge.
426
00:33:13,951 --> 00:33:16,287
You've got...
Mira.
427
00:33:16,370 --> 00:33:18,915
You've got
Stephanie's work-transfer order.
428
00:33:18,998 --> 00:33:23,753
Moving guys literally came
and took her furniture.
429
00:33:23,836 --> 00:33:27,632
Maybe it's not
that complicated.
430
00:33:27,715 --> 00:33:29,550
But the first bit of advice
you gave me was,
431
00:33:29,634 --> 00:33:32,136
"When a woman tells you
she loves you, believe her."
432
00:33:32,220 --> 00:33:35,681
Yeah, well, when a woman
quits her job
433
00:33:35,765 --> 00:33:37,934
and moves away
without telling you,
434
00:33:38,017 --> 00:33:40,186
maybe you should
believe that, too.
435
00:33:53,574 --> 00:33:58,246
The day my dad
had enough,
436
00:33:58,329 --> 00:34:00,748
my man just split.
437
00:34:00,831 --> 00:34:04,544
And I thought
that it was because
438
00:34:04,627 --> 00:34:07,964
I smoked his cigarettes.
439
00:34:08,047 --> 00:34:11,384
And I never
saw him again.
440
00:34:11,467 --> 00:34:15,304
So, who knows?
441
00:34:15,388 --> 00:34:17,139
Maybe that was it.
442
00:34:18,933 --> 00:34:22,979
I mean, you can think
you know someone
443
00:34:23,062 --> 00:34:28,150
and then find out
you never even met them.
444
00:34:30,736 --> 00:34:32,405
Yeah, it sucks, man.
445
00:34:35,074 --> 00:34:37,201
But it happens
all the time.
446
00:34:41,455 --> 00:34:45,501
I can appreciate how you might
reach that conclusion.
447
00:34:45,585 --> 00:34:50,756
However, I'm privy to one piece
of data that you are not.
448
00:34:57,054 --> 00:34:58,556
I know how it felt.
449
00:35:03,769 --> 00:35:05,563
Okay.
450
00:35:05,646 --> 00:35:08,858
Well,
it was just a theory.
451
00:38:06,660 --> 00:38:08,829
Hey!
452
00:38:10,039 --> 00:38:12,041
Aah!
453
00:38:14,543 --> 00:38:16,295
I told you
I heard something.
454
00:38:37,149 --> 00:38:38,692
I'll handle it.
455
00:38:56,168 --> 00:38:57,336
You played me.
456
00:39:01,715 --> 00:39:04,385
I knew.
457
00:39:04,468 --> 00:39:07,888
You corroborated
Calhoun's bogus alibi,
458
00:39:07,972 --> 00:39:09,974
I was certain you were involved
with covering up
459
00:39:10,057 --> 00:39:11,767
Stephanie's disappearance.
460
00:39:14,186 --> 00:39:19,024
But now I realize the depths
of my self-delusion,
461
00:39:19,108 --> 00:39:22,236
because Occam's razor should
have led me to this conclusion
462
00:39:22,319 --> 00:39:25,155
before a well-placed kick
to the belly ever did.
463
00:39:33,038 --> 00:39:35,708
There was never
any Stephanie.
464
00:39:37,877 --> 00:39:40,212
Who is she?
465
00:39:40,296 --> 00:39:42,214
Is she an undercover agent?
466
00:39:44,508 --> 00:39:45,968
A con artist
that owes you a favor?
467
00:39:46,051 --> 00:39:47,720
Well,
she was very convincing.
468
00:39:50,639 --> 00:39:54,018
You used her to pull
at my heartstrings
469
00:39:54,101 --> 00:39:55,644
and to trick me
into telling you
470
00:39:55,728 --> 00:39:58,022
everything you wanted to know
about our communities.
471
00:39:58,105 --> 00:39:59,732
Well, it worked.
472
00:40:02,359 --> 00:40:04,320
She led me
to the train yard,
473
00:40:04,403 --> 00:40:06,405
where we were
captured by you!
474
00:40:09,575 --> 00:40:11,994
You thought I wa...
you thought I was an easy mark,
475
00:40:12,077 --> 00:40:13,996
the most trusting of the police,
so you...
476
00:40:14,079 --> 00:40:15,831
you split off my friends
one at a time,
477
00:40:15,915 --> 00:40:19,043
thinking I'd break,
but I didn't break.
478
00:40:19,126 --> 00:40:20,878
Then she led me to the...
the radio room,
479
00:40:20,961 --> 00:40:23,255
where we were
captured again.
480
00:40:23,339 --> 00:40:26,133
Oh, and you certainly got
your money's worth there.
481
00:40:26,216 --> 00:40:29,929
I actually fell
for that one twice!
482
00:40:30,012 --> 00:40:32,222
She's the one that told me
I can trust you!
483
00:40:35,017 --> 00:40:38,562
And I did.
484
00:40:38,646 --> 00:40:42,191
She even read my book
so that she could get
485
00:40:42,274 --> 00:40:45,194
any helpful
autobiographical information
486
00:40:45,277 --> 00:40:47,279
that might
serve your needs!
487
00:40:50,741 --> 00:40:54,244
But now that you've gotten
everything you wanted, what?!
488
00:40:54,328 --> 00:40:56,872
No need to
continue the ruse?!
489
00:40:56,956 --> 00:40:58,123
Is that it?!
490
00:41:01,669 --> 00:41:05,631
But you didn't see
this twist.
491
00:41:05,714 --> 00:41:07,383
I am gonna make
absolutely certain
492
00:41:07,466 --> 00:41:12,137
that everybody knows exactly
who and what you are.
493
00:41:18,018 --> 00:41:21,313
Okay.
494
00:41:21,397 --> 00:41:24,566
And who or what is that,
exactly?
495
00:41:24,650 --> 00:41:27,361
The villain?
496
00:41:27,444 --> 00:41:30,531
The boogeyman?
497
00:41:30,614 --> 00:41:33,283
Or the best goddamn thing
that ever happened to you?
498
00:41:36,161 --> 00:41:38,455
You're right, Eugene.
499
00:41:38,539 --> 00:41:41,125
I did lie to you.
500
00:41:41,208 --> 00:41:42,751
Just like you
and your friends
501
00:41:42,835 --> 00:41:44,837
lied through your teeth
to get inside these walls.
502
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:46,463
No. No.
503
00:41:46,547 --> 00:41:48,882
But who's keeping score,
right?
504
00:41:48,966 --> 00:41:51,301
So, I did what I had to do
to get you here.
505
00:41:51,385 --> 00:41:54,304
And you know what? You should be
thanking me for it.
506
00:41:54,388 --> 00:41:56,432
It's not my fault you people
are too stupid to know
507
00:41:56,515 --> 00:42:00,102
a good thing
when it landed in your laps.
508
00:42:00,185 --> 00:42:02,771
You're just...
you're just admitting it?
509
00:42:06,692 --> 00:42:10,446
I fell in love, and everything
I know about her is a fiction!
510
00:42:10,529 --> 00:42:11,965
Look, we tried to
rip the Band-Aid off
511
00:42:11,989 --> 00:42:13,449
when we saw
it was getting serious,
512
00:42:13,532 --> 00:42:16,011
and I did everything I could to
get you to stop looking for her,
513
00:42:16,035 --> 00:42:18,245
but you wouldn't.
514
00:42:18,328 --> 00:42:19,830
And here we are.
515
00:42:22,374 --> 00:42:24,293
At least you can stop now,
right?
516
00:42:27,546 --> 00:42:31,008
It wasn't gonna get better
for your people, Eugene.
517
00:42:31,091 --> 00:42:32,676
They were about to starve.
518
00:42:34,887 --> 00:42:36,430
And now you're here
519
00:42:36,513 --> 00:42:38,098
and your community
is getting fixed
520
00:42:38,182 --> 00:42:39,349
and you've got everything,
521
00:42:39,433 --> 00:42:42,519
from concerts
to cancer surgery.
522
00:42:42,603 --> 00:42:45,397
And literally the only thing
we've ever asked of you all
523
00:42:45,481 --> 00:42:49,359
in return is to be productive
members of society here
524
00:42:49,443 --> 00:42:52,154
for as long
as you choose to stay.
525
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,784
So, tell them
whatever you want.
526
00:42:56,867 --> 00:43:00,120
The statement you signed
to get out of jail
527
00:43:00,204 --> 00:43:02,414
says you were suffering
from paranoia
528
00:43:02,498 --> 00:43:05,000
as a result of
nervous strain.
529
00:43:08,253 --> 00:43:10,881
Remember?
530
00:43:10,964 --> 00:43:15,511
I mean,
look at you, Eugene.
531
00:43:15,594 --> 00:43:20,265
This has obviously
taken a toll.
532
00:43:20,349 --> 00:43:23,185
Am I sorry your heart
got broken?
533
00:43:23,268 --> 00:43:25,562
Absolutely.
534
00:43:25,646 --> 00:43:27,286
And I'm sure your friends
will be very sad
535
00:43:27,314 --> 00:43:29,024
to hear about it, too.
536
00:43:29,108 --> 00:43:32,820
But in the balance
of things,
537
00:43:32,903 --> 00:43:35,906
I still think it worked out
in everyone's favor.
538
00:43:35,989 --> 00:43:37,866
And they probably would,
too.
539
00:43:47,835 --> 00:43:49,711
Oh.
540
00:43:49,795 --> 00:43:52,756
By the way,
541
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:56,176
Stephanie's real name
is Shira.
542
00:43:56,260 --> 00:43:58,470
And she hates
Iron Maiden.
543
00:43:58,554 --> 00:44:01,098
But she genuinely enjoyed
your book.
544
00:44:03,851 --> 00:44:05,519
You should stick with it.
545
00:45:07,623 --> 00:45:10,667
Eugene?
546
00:45:10,751 --> 00:45:12,294
Are you alright?
547
00:45:14,379 --> 00:45:16,256
Eugene,
I need to talk to you.
548
00:45:21,470 --> 00:45:23,138
Tater Bug.
549
00:45:23,222 --> 00:45:24,890
This is Blue Weevil
to Tater Bug.
550
00:45:24,973 --> 00:45:27,434
Please come back.
551
00:45:39,947 --> 00:45:41,448
Who are you?
552
00:45:44,034 --> 00:45:45,494
It's me.
553
00:45:49,456 --> 00:45:51,875
I'm the one you were talking to
on the radio.
