DANIEL It's not just tweaks to the formula. It's age. JONAS Don't even say it. NICHOLE Are you suggesting we try with a child? BRAD Hello, Amy. BRAD The CDC wants you to see a specialist in Colorado. AMY How come there's no social worker? BRAD They just sent us. We'll have to do. BRAD That thing is ridiculous. AMY No, it's not. It's freaking awesome. BRAD We're not going to Colorado. It's a bad place. AMY It is? BRAD Yeah. So we got to find some place safe. RICHARDS Brad, don't do this. BRAD You're gonna shoot me in front of the girl? RICHARDS I will kill you. BRAD BRAD It's gonna be okay. You understand? I'm not gonna leave you. I promise. AMY RICHARDS Go, go, go, go. Come on. AMY What are we gonna do? BRAD Hold on. AMY Are you okay? BRAD Yeah. RICHARDS Damn it! Back up, turn around! Let's go! Let's go! CHILDREN BRAD Hang on. BRAD I need my shirt. Okay. Follow me. Come on. AMY You need a doctor. BRAD Listen, I'm fine. You got to work with me, okay? Whatever I say, just go with it. Can you do that? AMY Okay. BRAD Hey. Hi. I'm Pete Erickson. This is my daughter, Stella. We're brand new to the school and, ugh, I'm such an idiot. I forgot everything. I forgot about the field trip, or her t-shirt. Her lunch. I'm just trying to get used to this whole single dad thing. TEACHER Oh, it's just the two of you? AMY Yeah. My mom ran off with her trainer. He's 27. BRAD Oh, sweetie. They don't need to know the whole story. AMY Has his own YouTube Channel. BRAD Okay. Great. We're all up to speed. TEACHER BRAD Uh, can she get on the bus? TEACHER It's right here. BRAD All right. Hey Okay, sweetie, have fun. AMY All right. BRAD Thank you. AMY Bye, Dad. BRAD Bye. BRAD No phones on the bus. MAN GREY Oh. Oh, I-I wouldn't-I wouldn't do that if I were you. JANITOR I hate the way she looks at me. GREY Well, quit-quit looking at her. JANITOR Hey! I'm in charge of Babcock, you're in charge of Fanning. All right? Worry about him. JONAS Mortality rate's almost 30%. First few cases have been reported in North Korea. They've closed the airports in Beijing. NICHOLE This is terrifying. JONAS Not as terrifying as the solution we've come up with. What's going on with the child? NICHOLE Still in the wind with the agent. JONAS Well, I'm rooting for them. NICHOLE Well, I'm rooting for all of us. Jonas, I had to make the call, so I did. And the child won't be harmed. JONAS We've been on this manner for two long. We're isolated, cut off from every day life. We're not qualified to decide what's right or wrong, 'cause we don't know the difference anymore. AMY Where are we going? BRAD I'm trying to figure- figure it out. AMY Are you okay? You look awful. BRAD No, I'm good. We're just. I just need to stop for a second. RICHARDS Is this the guy who took your phone? KID Yep. RICHARDS Can I get that number? KID It's not my phone. RICHARDS You just said he took your phone. KID It's my sister's phone. I just had it for the field trip. RICHARDS Okay, can I get your sister's number? KID I don't know my sister's phone number. RICHARDS How about your mom? KID She's on speed dial on my sister's phone. RICHARDS Go back to your teacher. Get the mom's phone from the school and track the damn thing. Also, look for any cars stolen in the area. He got off that bus. He's gonna steal a car. It'd be an older model. No GPS. Yeah? NICHOLE Hi. RICHARDS Wolgast and the kid are still on the run. The police station was a disaster. Sheriff was killed and three of my men. Well, so much for making the world a better place. NICHOLE Should we consider finding another child? RICHARDS No. Wolgast is gonna talk, and if he does, this whole operation gets shut down. He's injured. He's got the kid with him. I'll find them. NICHOLE Okay. Be careful. AGENT Should we tap the ex wife's home? RICHARDS Yeah. Do it. LILA Surgery went well. We repaired the tendon. I'm happy. Just need you to rest, and we'll see you in a few weeks. NATHAN So, basketball in a few months, yeah? LILA Oh, hell no, Nathan. We talked about this. You can play chess. That's a sport. Look it up. NURSE Dr. Wolgast. LILA Yeah? NURSE You have a call. LILA Oh, great. Just send it to my cell. NURSE Okay. All right. LILA This is Dr. Wolgast. AMY I think he might be dead. LILA What? Who? Who is this? AMY This is Amy Bellafonte. The agent's with me. We tried to turn ourselves in, but then some guy with guns came in, and the agent got shot, and he passed out, and I think he might be dead. Everyone's a bad guy, so I didn't know who to call. LILA Okay, okay. Okay, Amy. I'm glad you called. That was really smart of you. Look, I need you to take a deep breath. Everything is gonna be all right. Say that back to me. AMY It's gonna be all right. LILA Now, can you tell if he's breathing? Put your hand on his chest. Is it moving up and down? AMY Mm-hmm. yeah. LILA Okay. He's alive. Hey, Amy, how do you feel about blood? AMY I don't like it. LILA I know, it's gross. But I just- I need you to look, okay? Is it still bleeding? AMY It's stuck to it. It's all dried. LILA Okay. Good. It means it stopped, so just leave it. Do you see any signs? Do you know where you are? AMY It says Tomah, La Crosse, 14 West. LILA You're in Wisconsin. Okay, I think the agent's gonna be okay, but we need to wake him up. Do you know what a noogie is? AMY Yeah. LILA All right. Make a fist and rub your knuckles in his chest super hard so it hurts. BRAD Ah, ah, ah! Ah! What the hell? What'd you do that for? AMY Your ex wife told me to. BRAD W-W-What? LILA Let me talk to him. AMY She wants to talk to you. BRAD Hello? LILA What is going on? BRAD Lila, no. This is not your concern. LILA How is it not my concern? You're injured, you passed out, you may have internal bleeding, you have a child with you. BRAD Richards probably has guys at the hospital watching you right now. You're not involved in this. LILA Just tell- BRAD Damn it. Get in the car. CARTER So this is it? Just one dose? JONAS Just one dose. CARTER Then what's the chip in my neck for? JONAS Monitor your vital signs. Tell us your location. CARTER Sensitivity to sunlight is a side effect? JONAS Can be, but if all goes well, you'll be impervious to disease. CARTER How is any of this legal? It's not, is it? Yeah, if this is on the up and up, you guys, you wouldn't be looking for prisoners to experiment on. JONAS We're in a desperate situation, Mr. Carter. So are you. CARTER I can't argue with that. But why am I more scared now than I was on death row? JONAS I'm gonna make sure you come through this with flying colors, Mr. Carter. I'll be back to check on you in a bit. CARTER Is this the way you saw your career, Dr. Lear? Using human beings as lab rats? JONAS No. I could never have imagined any of this. LIZ All right, I'm gonna say this one more time. Please do not bring Tim Fanning into this. He is an egomaniacal, credit-grabbing monster, with a substance abuse problem. JONAS We've been friends with him since college. When'd you turn on him? LIZ I just hate to see you grovel. JONAS I'm not groveling. You know why I'm doing this. LIZ Oh, no, no. Do not blame this on me. JONAS We're doing this for you. Why can't you see that? LIZ Because it's a Hail Mary and it's crazy. JONAS I have to do something, Liz. LIZ JONAS LIZ Come here. You're all crooked. JONAS Help me. You know I hate ties. LIZ I know, I know. You can't change this, Jonas. If you want to help me, stay with me. That's what I want. JONAS I'm gonna do better than that. LIZ Oh, my God. You don't listen. JONAS I know. Are you sad that you married me? LIZ Yes. JONAS Really? LIZ No. I love you. JONAS I love you, too. AUDIENCE TIM All right, hang on. Hang on. Your brain hallucinates your conscious reality. So all those amazing neurons are generating your experience. They're-they're filling in the gaps. You're sense of self, that's not real. What we think of as our humanity, as our-our selves, that's just a story that our neurons are telling us. Now, this is extremely hard for me to swallow because I have an enormous ego. AUDIENCE TIM Jonas, I'm not interested. I've got a book tour. I'm not going to South America to look in some cave review for a myth. Thank you, but now. JONAS I have new evidence. TIM Oh, yeah? A 250-year-old man, he sent you a selfie? JONAS Elizabeth has Alzheimer's. TIM When was she diagnosed? JONAS Three months ago. It's it's only onset, but it's so fast, Tim. I mean, she's gotten lost in the city, like, three times already. JONAS Why didn't you call me? I'm a neurologist for god's sake. JONAS This Bolivia thing, we could help her. I have the blood samples, some scientist in Bogotá. You really have to see it. It's a game changer. BRAD Hey. No more phone calls, okay? AMY You threw the phone out of the window. BRAD Yeah. I threw the phone out of the window because they can find us if we make a phone call. Don't you watch TV? AMY I watch a lot of TV, actually. Usually the main guy doesn't pass out behind the wheel. BRAD I'd like to point out that the main guy got shot. AMY Where are we going? Do you have a plan? BRAD I have a friend in Wisconsin. AMY You have a friend? BRAD Something wrong? AMY No. Lila seems nice. BRAD Yeah. AMY Smart, too. BRAD Mm-hmm. AMY Also, good in an emergency, so good thing you hung up on her. BRAD Hey, what is your problem? AMY I don't know. I've been kidnapped, shot at and chased, and the last thing I had to eat in 24 hours is Cheerios and doughnuts. BRAD Hey, that- No. You had a hot dog at the carnival. AMY And then you decided it's be a great time to pass out. BRAD I didn't decide to pass out. AMY You said you wouldn't leave me! BRAD I didn't leave you! AMY Passing out was living me. I thought you were dead. BRAD I'm not dead. AMY Good! 'Cause you don't get to die, and you don't get to pass out. And you don't get to not have a plan. BRAD Okay. AMY And you owe me a unicorn. BRAD Fine. Fine. Do I get anything out of this deal? AMY You don't leave me and I don't leave you. AMY Why did we park so far away? And what's with the goats? BRAD The woman who lives here is kind of an angry hermit. She likes things a certain way. The goats, the goats are new. I don't know anything about the goats. Whoa, whoa. All right, cover your ears. Put your hands up. Come on. Come on. LACEY Bradley? What the hell happen to you? BRAD I got shot. LACEY Well, that's disappointing. Who's the kid? BRAD This is Amy Bellafonte. AMY Hi. LACEY Amy, you want to go wash up? The bathroom's upstairs. AMY Okay. Thank you. BRAD You got a lot of fire power here. Even for you. LACEY Is it enough? For whatever's following you? It's that sketchy job, isn't it? I told you not to take that. BRAD I need shelter, Lacey. LACEY I raise goats now. BRAD Oh, yeah? How's that going for you? LACEY Make my own cheese. Grow most of my own food. Also, I started painting. BRAD That all sounds magical. Can we stay here or not? LACEY Go clean yourself up. There's a first aid kit in the kitchen. Pain killers, too. And then, you're gonna read me into whatever mess you got yourself into. RICHARDS Listen up! He crossed into Wisconsin three hours go. I got to think he's headed for Canada. The border patrol has been alerted, but he is slippery, and he has friends. I want to be clear. If you have a shot, take it. Shoot to kill. JONAS I got Carter's blood work. Looks like his T and B cell receptors have already enhanced. That's good news. NICHOLE Look. He-he had a football injury, and all that cartilage is already restored. He got the formula in less than five ours ago. It always takes my breath away, the power of what you discovered. JONAS Yep. And yet we can't seem to control it. Nichole, let's please not do this. Let the little girl go. NICHOLE Jonas, she's gonna come through. She won't be harmed. JONAS How can you be so sure? NICHOLE Because there's no other option. You think I like it? You think I'm sleeping? Well, I'm not. We have to do this, so we have to make sure she comes through intact. Please, Jonas. Get your head in the game. She needs you. I need you. Let's see this thing through. The thing you started. TIM Oh, my God. This is fascinating. JONAS Just take a look at the number of T and B cell receptors in there. TIM Yeah, I know. I've never seen anything like this. This is huge. And you're right, this could alter the course of Elizabeth's Alzheimer's. Jonas, this could be the cure for everything. JONAS Can we be fast enough, though? TIM Yeah, we will. I know, like, six billionaires who'd bankroll this today. JONAS We just need to be careful. We want to maintain control. TIM Jonas, we're gonna do everything right. I promise, okay? You just you got to let me do my thing where the-where the funding is concerned. JONAS Sure. Thank you. TIM This is amazing. Jonas, we're we're gonna change the world. Yeah, you'll see. ON-SCREEN TEXT Chinese Avian Flu Threat Increasing AMY How do you know the Agent? LACEY Bradley? He was my student in the Navy. Land warfare. He was one of my favorites, but don't tell him that. AMY You were in the Navy? LACEY Yep. AMY But you're not anymore? LACEY Nope. AMY What, did you join it right after high school? LACEY Actually, no. Before I was in the Navy, I was a nun. AMY You're serious? BRAD God's Lacey's ex husband. LACEY How do you know God's a man? BRAD Ex wife, then. AMY You know about this? BRAD LACEY Bradley knows everything about everyone. He asks questions. That's what made him a good hostage negotiator. AMY Like in bank robberies? BRAD And other high-stakes negotiations, yes. Pretty fascinating, Amy. LACEY Amy, you want to go and feed some goats? AMY Sure. BRAD Yeah, I'm not gonna come. LACEY No one asked you. LILA Whoa. It's just me. BRAD How did you know I was here? LILA Well, who else do you know in Wisconsin? Oh, man. LACEY I got rid of your car, Bradley. BRAD What'd you do with it? LACEY I got a guy. LILA Huh, I forgot about your grilled cheese. It's one of your best qualities, this sandwich. BRAD Thanks. LACEY Where's Amy? BRAD Upstairs, watching a movie. LACEY There you go. I, uh, arranged a boat ride for you. I can get you to Canada. BRAD Passports? LACEY I got a guy who can get you across the border? BRAD You always got a guy. LACEY What are you gonna do once you get to Canada? You know it's not over just because you cross the border. BRAD If they keep chasing us, we'll just got to Amsterdam. LACEY Amsterdam? BRAD Sure. LACEY These people are never gonna stop, Bradley. They can get to Amsterdam. You won't be safe until the public knows what you know about Project Noah. I think they're after you more than they are this precious little girl here. LILA They'll just find another child, won't they? LACEY That's right. And that child will have just as sad a story as our Amy. Now you think about that for a minute. BRAD I don't want to be a whistleblower, Lacey. I tried that way, we almost got killed. LACEY Then let me do it. I have some things to atone for, as you know. You get the girl safe, and I'll get the story out. Give me their names, Bradley. The 12 on death row. Who are they? BRAD Joseph Morrison, Victor Chavez, Kathy Turell, David Winston. Julio Martinez, Shauna Babcock, Anthony Carter. SHAUNA Hey, you made it. CARTER I'm sorry, do I know you? SHAUNA Yeah, you do. You will. CARTER Uh Okay. SHAUNA So how do you feel? CARTER Honestly, I feel like a million bucks. Like, I can fly or lift a car over my head or something. SHAUNA That's what happens. It feels so good at first, and then it gets a little jenky. Everything is okay if you just do what he says. CARTER Do what who says? TIM Hello, Carter, how are you? You look great. Doesn't he? So, how is my old friend Jonas? A little word of advice, don't trust him. Go on. Drink it. CARTER You know what? Nah, I'm good. SHAUNA Just do it. First time's the hardest, and then you get to like it- CARTER I said no. TIM It's okay. You don't have to drink it now. You still have to settle up, though. CARTER I'm sorry, I don't-I don't have any money. TIM SHAUNA Oh, we don't take money here. You pay with yourself. CARTER I don't-I don't want a thing to do with you. TIM Hey, Carter. Give Jonas a message for me, will you? CARTER BRAD LILA You want more lidocaine? BRAD No, I don't need stitches. I'm fine. LILA You're fine? Really? You got shot and you passed out. Let's not throw in a staff infection. BRAD How's Dave? Is it Dave or David? LILA It's David. BRAD Mm. Of course it is. How is David? LILA He's great. He's outside waiting in the car, actually. BRAD Oh, yeah? LILA Mm-hmm. BRAD Did you crack a window for him. Ah. LILA Oh, sorry. BRAD So what's the time line on this having David's baby thing? You pregnant already? LILA No. I'm not. It kind of seems like you are, though. You know, what are you gonna do? Run away with this girl and make her pancakes in Amsterdam on Saturday mornings? BRAD Yes. I watched our daughter die. I couldn't stop it. And I shut down and and I couldn't help you. And I couldn't let you help me, and then I I just stop believing in anything. But then I met this little girl. She's great. She's a tomboy. LILA Just like Eva. BRAD Like Eva. Yeah. So much. She doesn't have anybody. And it's so clear to me that what I'm supposed to do right now is to make sure that she's safe. It's the only thing that's made sense to me in a long time. LILA I've missed you. BRAD Psst. It's past 200 a.m. Can't sleep? AMY Mm-mm. BRAD Me neither. AMY Can I ask you a personal question? BRAD Yeah. AMY Are you an assassin? BRAD No. AMY Okay. 'Cause you assassinated some people today. BRAD I served in Afghanistan, and, uh, then I became a federal agent. And it was pretty scary today, huh? AMY Can I ask you another personal question? BRAD Sure. AMY Do you believe in God? BRAD You're thinking about your mom? Of course you are. You know, when people die, it's our job to remember them. Even if it hurts. How about I read to you? I can just keep reading until you fall asleep. AMY Okay. BRAD Okay. From the beginning? AMY Yeah. BRAD Mm-hmm. Flashlight. Okay. Here we go. "It was a dark and stormy night. In her attic bedroom, Margaret Murray, wrapped in an old patchwork quilt, sat on the foot of her bed and watched the trees tossing in the frenzied." RICHARDS And you don't know how this got on your bed? TOW TRUCK GUY I got a notice to pick this car up, that's all I know. RICHARDS Where are you taking it? TOW TRUCK GUY To the impound where I take them all. That's my job. RICHARDS And you don't know who called this one in? TOW TRUCK GUY It got sent through dispatch. I don't know who called them, so can I go or what? RICHARDS I think you know exactly who asked you to transport this car. Tell me now. TOW TRUCK GUY I do jobs for her sometimes. She pays me cash. RICHARDS I want a name. TOW TRUCK GUY Lacey. Lacey Antoine. JONAS Department of Defense? TIM Oh, yeah. JONAS Are you out of your mind? TIM They came through with the most money by far. They see it as a way to combat infectious disease. JONAS Tim, this-this time table is insane. TIM Don't you see? We go with the guys who make the rules so we can break the rules. LIZ What-what are you saying? TIM I'm talking about a fast track. LIZ You're talking about tossing ethics in the garbage. JONAS Elizabeth. This is for you. LIZ No, this is for you. I want you to stay with me. And you're either going to fail, or you're gonna cross some ethical line that you've worked your whole life to uphold? You will look back on this with searing regret, and you won't have me to talk to about it, because this disease is going to have its way with me no matter what you do. JONAS Mr. Carter, how are you feeling today? CARTER I just did six miles. I felt like I could've kept going forever. JONAS Well, that's excellent. CARTER I've been having bad dreams, though. Maybe I can get something for that. JONAS A sleeping pill, sure. Anything remarkable about your dreams? CARTER Yeah. It's the same guy every time. I think you know him, that Dr. Tim Fanning. He says he's a friend of yours, but that I shouldn't trust you. He says to tell you that you already changed the world. You just have to wait and see how. JONAS Hey, honey. You look beautiful. Sorry I'm late. I'm not having a great day. Everything's spinning out of control and, uh and it's all my fault. You were so right. LIZ I think I may have missed a lecture. But nobody here will tell me what day it is. JONAS I miss you so much. JANITOR Hey, baby. You missed me? GREY I thought they pulled you off the floor. JANITOR No, nobody's. Lucky me. GREY Well, I didn't hear, okay. Stop antagonizing her. JANITOR Oh, God. I hate it here. No cell phones, no Wi-Fi.

GREY I bet she's just gonna kill me, she's gonna kill me. JANITOR Well, you better go get it. Whoa. That was pretty good, Grey. GREY Yeah, thanks a lot, man. Thanks a lot. Let's go. JANITOR I didn't think you had it in you. Well, maybe she's a good girl after all. Hmm? Maybe she's been- GREY No, no, no, no! No! No! No! Help! BRAD Everybody ready? LILA Almost. BRAD Look what I found. AMY Ah. BRAD Here are the waters. LILA Thank you. BRAD Hey, did you brush your teeth this morning? Let me see. that smile. AMY LACEY Everyone ready? Here you go.
