00:00Previously on The Institute
00:18Hello?
00:21Sure, get whatever you want.
00:30Welcome to The Institute.
00:35Your name's Luke Ellis, you're from Minneapolis, and you're smart.
00:40Are you TK or TP?
00:42TP is telepathy, TK is...
00:45Telekinesis.
00:47Well, sometimes things move around me, but that can't be enough to...
00:51To land you here?
00:53We're in front half right now.
00:54Is there a back half?
00:55Yeah, where we go when we graduate front half.
00:58Welcome, Luke.
01:00You have met Mr. Stockhouse, Chief of Security, and this is Dr. Hendricks.
01:05He's the architect of the cutting-edge science we do here.
01:09My name is Ms. Sixby, and I'm...
01:12I'm the boss, I know.
01:13You are, without question, about to participate in saving the world.
01:18And then when you come to the end of your service, we'll wipe your memory, send you home.
01:25We're not monsters.
01:26Well, son, you are ridiculously overqualified for this job.
01:34The thing is, we're a good crew.
01:37You're just some guy off the street.
01:39People joke about a night knocker, but it's key for a force as small as ours.
01:42There are things going on every day in this world that you would not fucking believe.
01:54You're right, she was unreliable.
01:57Was?
01:58It's taken care of.
02:00Uh, Luke, meet Mickey.
02:01Yeah, we want out.
02:04We get ourselves out.
02:06So, smart kid, how do we get the fuck out of here?
02:09Shout, shout, let it all out.
02:30These are the things I can do without you.
02:36Come on.
02:38I'm talking to you.
02:42Come on.
02:43You shouldn't have to sell your soul in black and white.
03:00You shouldn't have to sell your soul in black and white.
03:56By the way, have you ever had chicken pox?
04:00You want?
04:01Sure can.
04:02Whatever you want.
04:10Up and at him!
04:12Sleepy head!
04:13Party started!
04:15You don't want to miss the fun!
04:19Goodbye, Ron, half for you.
04:22Goodbye, Ron, half for you.
04:27Goodbye, Ron, half, dear Iris.
04:33Goodbye, friend, half for you.
04:38Yay!
04:39Am I supposed to make a wish or something?
04:47If you'd like.
04:49How about I wish you got my age right?
04:51There's only 13 candles.
04:52Oh, sorry, honey.
04:55These are for your 13 days in front half.
04:58But now you're on your way.
05:06Yay!
05:06Yay!
05:07Yay!
05:07Yay!
05:07Yay!
05:08Yay!
05:09Yay!
05:09Yay!
05:10Yay!
05:10Yay!
05:11Yay!
05:11Yay!
05:12Yay!
05:12Yay!
05:13Yay!
05:14Yay!
05:15And you're picking up your birthday cake
05:16at 8 in the morning?
05:17Pleasure, Arlen, remember?
05:20Yeah, but it doesn't mean I want frosting for breakfast.
05:23You know, it's... it's fucking creepy.
05:41Hey.
05:42You have your first day of tests today, right?
05:45Yeah.
05:46Eat the cake. Sugar helps.
05:48It helps what?
05:50Just trust me.
05:52Everything's gonna be all right.
06:18So, Nicky...
06:25Nicky says you're gonna find a way to help him?
06:30Gonna find a way to help us all.
06:32You're not sure of yourself.
06:37Must be nice.
06:38Iris, it's time.
06:41It's time.
06:46She's so into him.
06:49You know, it's funny, she goes through all this trouble
06:51to try and hide it from me in her head,
06:53but I'm like, babe, I can see it on your face.
06:58So you're together, you and Nicky.
07:03Yeah, I wasn't sure.
07:05Guess that makes the two of us.
07:07Truth is, I don't know if Nicky and I are together.
07:10I don't know what we are.
07:12I mean, I haven't even known in two weeks, so...
07:26Guess I'll see you guys in a few days?
07:28Yeah, okay.
07:29Yeah, see you soon.
07:40Oh, Jesus!
07:56Big first day, huh, Tiger?
07:59You get yourself ready.
08:01I'll be back for you in an hour or two.
08:21Come on, Iris.
08:22We will see her no more.
08:52Hi. Good morning.
09:05Hey, can you give me a hand?
09:07Uh, please?
09:08Well, I was, I was, uh...
09:09Great, if you could.
09:10Yeah.
09:11Just about to grab her.
09:12Okay, okay.
09:13There she is.
09:14That's it.
09:15Yeah.
09:16Yeah.
09:17Hey.
09:20She likes you.
09:22She is single.
09:27Hoping that it'll give our regulars some peace of mind
09:29having a lawman living in their midst.
09:32Although it may cut back on prom night business
09:35and local kids checking in for weed and pillow fights.
09:40Yeah.
09:41I believe our friend Officer Gullickson
09:43used to be a part of those revelries not so many years ago,
09:46if memory serves.
09:47Oh, that reminds me.
09:49She called a little bit ago
09:51and asked me
09:52to have you go down to the station
09:54as soon as you were up and about.
09:56Oh, well, I should...
09:57Probably don't.
09:58Actually, at first,
09:59she wanted me put straight through to your room.
10:01But,
10:02you have the do not disturb money.
10:04Okay.
10:05And we at the Stanton Hotel pride ourselves
10:07on never contributing our guest wishes.
10:09Okay.
10:10See you.
10:11That's over, Delia.
10:12See you.
10:13All right.
10:18Here you go.
10:19Oh, sweet home.
10:21We got a flash from the Stadies this morning.
10:23Two-man stick-up crew they think might be headed this way.
10:26They had a convenience store down in New Hampshire a week ago.
10:30Then a place in Kittery Monday morning.
10:32Then last night, she's outside Bangor.
10:34Ready for the border?
10:36Possible.
10:37Unless they cut east.
10:38Route one should bring them right up our way.
10:40Got it.
10:44So you, uh,
10:45call me down here just to warn me?
10:47Have you done that on the phone?
10:49About the kind of observation they teach you to make
10:51at big city cop school?
10:53Chief told me to see if you want to be carrying a gun.
10:55Just so we catch him.
10:57We got a couple extra Glocks in the safe.
10:59I'm all set on that front.
11:01You have your own weapon?
11:02I do not.
11:06Suit yourself.
11:08And obviously if anything goes down, your only job is to call it in.
11:11Yes, ma'am.
11:14There is, uh, one thing you might be able to help me with.
11:18Where is the fella supposed to get an oat milk latte in this town?
11:24There's a Starbucks down in Waterville.
11:26It's about 98 miles.
11:27No, that was a big city cop joke.
11:30I've got a lot of taste.
11:32Phew, that's a relief.
11:33But just be careful tonight.
11:36Those punks do roll through here.
11:38Chalk's not going to do much good.
11:41Maybe.
11:42But don't worry.
11:43They'll be no match for my wit and charm.
11:49You want some jet fuel?
11:51Try the Sunrise Diner a couple blocks down on the right.
11:54Thank you, ma'am.
11:56Ma'am?
11:58Miss?
12:00Officer.
12:04Got it.
12:05She was a snatch team leader?
12:08Yes, sir.
12:09Promoted last year.
12:10Obviously our vetting procedures need some improvement.
12:14Sir, as Miss Sigsbee and I have discussed, vetting is all about time.
12:20She's made me aware on a number of occasions.
12:22Her staffing needs require expediting.
12:23No.
12:24What I require is more kids.
12:25And as a snatch team leader, she was privy to all aspects of our mission.
12:26No, sir.
12:27Front half access only.
12:28That's hardly comforting.
12:29And you followed this woman how long?
12:30That's for you, Mr. Stackhouse.
12:31We beefed up passive surveillance in March.
12:36Active measures were authorized last week.
12:38Active measures, meaning?
12:40Your reporter.
12:41Sir, I don't believe everyone on this conference has clearance.
12:48Mr. Stackhouse, if I wanted Miss Sigsbee absent on this conversation, she would be.
12:54Now, you're confident your reporter was the only person that this traitor tried to have contact with?
13:13I am.
13:14Now, Miss Sigsbee, I recognize that the snatch team is not your direct responsibility, but obviously the most efficient way to fill this vacancy.
13:23Is for you to move someone over from your in-house staff.
13:28You know we're undermanned as it is.
13:31Yes, I do.
13:32But you said so yourself with all the new keyholes coming up.
13:36What you really need are more kids.
13:39So what I really need is for our snatch teams to be at full strength.
13:44Now I'm going to ask you once again to give me more for less.
13:50Or I could simply tell the committee that you were unable to handle the amount of targets you've been assigned.
13:57No, no, no, no. Of course not. We all have to do our part.
14:03What about Mr. Stackhouse's reporter?
14:05I presume she's been through some vetting. What if she filled in on the snatch team until we had a permanent replacement?
14:12And how's that, Mr. Stackhouse?
14:16I'll make it so, sir.
14:18Very good.
14:20So, you actually managed to turn a reporter?
14:34I got out of the job three years ago just for this kind of eventuality.
14:39Thought you would appreciate my foresight.
14:43And I do.
14:45What I don't appreciate is you questioning my security status on that call.
14:48You see, you know how worked up he gets about clearances. I was just throwing him a bone.
14:53By throwing me under a bus.
14:55That's funny.
14:57I forgot how funny you could be.
15:00Not that funny.
15:04You don't really think I'd compromise this place, do you?
15:08I know you wouldn't.
15:10Well, that's somewhat comforting.
15:13Oh, not because I trust you.
15:15But because I know that you know that if ever any of this comes out,
15:20you'll be just as screwed as the rest of us.
15:29How much do you know about what to expect today?
15:31I'm surprised you actually care.
15:34Are we gonna have to have another talk about you being a good co-operator?
15:39Look, I know you're gonna try and get a baseline of my TK.
15:42I'll save us both some time. I can't do it on demand.
15:45Only when something activates it.
15:47Well, then we'll just have to find a way to activate it, huh?
15:50And let's take the can't out of our vocabulary, huh, champ?
15:53Can't's a fucking beta word.
15:55Ah, I'm Dr. Hendricks, head of medical operations.
16:05We met briefly in Ms. Sixby's office, but you weren't at your best.
16:10Well, Luke doesn't shake.
16:12That's all right. Perfectly all right.
16:16He does, however, hop up in the chair when I say.
16:20Spare us another teachable moment.
16:29So you're really a doctor, huh?
16:44Of course.
16:45A bit of medical doctor, not like Dr. Phil.
16:49Yes.
16:50What about all those oaths they make you take?
16:53Primum non dacare.
16:55How does that square with kidnapping and, uh, testing without consent?
17:00Well, right. You're the smart one.
17:04Yeah.
17:05And yet not the first you think he can stump me with Hippocrates.
17:10I assure you I've been all through the morality of the work we do here.
17:16The ends more than justify any means.
17:19Yeah.
17:20Saving the world, right?
17:22As a matter of fact.
17:23Hippocrates never actually said it, you know.
17:26Primum non dacare.
17:28Everything just sounds better in Latin.
17:30It's more official.
17:31Latin or not, I hope you're smart enough to realize it's meaningless.
17:36First, do no harm.
17:38All surgery is harm.
17:41Just harm in service of the greater goods.
17:44Hold still now.
17:45What's in that?
17:47What do you care?
17:48It's going in my arm, man.
17:50That's right.
17:51It's going in whatever it is.
17:53Now hold still.
17:56Only reason you want to know the name is you can go on feeling smarter than everybody.
18:00I assume your bunkmates have told you about the dots?
18:06Hmm?
18:07Yeah, a little.
18:08And how important it is to tell us when you see them?
18:11Yeah, they told me.
18:13Very unlikely you'll see them today.
18:14Today is about getting your baseline.
18:15All you gotta do is sit back and relax.
18:16And follow instructions.
18:17Come on, please.
18:18Come on.
18:19Come on.
18:20Come on.
18:21Without getting your baseline, all you've got to do is sit back and relax and follow instructions.
18:51You need to know. Zoe needs you to know the truth.
18:59Stop saying her name.
19:00I'm just trying to tell you the truth.
19:03Get the hell out of my way.
19:04Hey, hey, what's going on?
19:05She's crazy. She's fucking crazy. Stay away from me.
19:09You can't keep ignoring it anymore.
19:11Easy, easy. Everything's okay.
19:13What are you doing here?
19:14I'm just on my way to the Sunrise, grab coffee. You had breakfast yet? I hear they're making me an almond.
19:18I gotta warn her. I know, I know, I know.
19:20But you gotta eat something first, okay?
19:23Tell you what, tell you what. It's on me.
19:25Hmm?
19:28I get it.
19:29Everything all right?
19:30Dispatch just got a call.
19:32Mr. Sloan?
19:33Yeah, yeah, everything's, everything's fine. All under control, right?
19:36Right?
19:37Nobody's safe. Nobody is safe.
19:40Annie, I know Chief's tired of going over this. You cannot be bothering the Sloans anymore.
19:45Damn Chief could be in on it, for all I know.
19:47For God's sake, Annie.
19:48You could all be in on it.
19:50You and me?
19:51Well, uh, uh, you're new here.
19:54So, you'll learn the truth soon enough. You'll see.
19:57Annie, you wanna come down to the station, Dr. Chief Ashworth?
19:59Oh, I, I don't think we need to do that. Annie and I are about to go get some breakfast.
20:03No, thank you. Both of you. I, I got errands to run.
20:09All right. Well, as long as those errands don't involve going anywhere near poor Mrs. Sloan.
20:14Oh.
20:16Careful with him. They look just like us. Sound like us, too. Except for the toes. You gotta look at the pinky toes. They're, they're bent off funny. Oh.
20:30Suppose you think you're being some kind of humanitarian? Make nice with the crazy lady?
20:38Tell you the truth, Drew. I, uh, I guess I hadn't really thought about it.
20:40Okay. Well, now that we're thinking about it, why don't we think about what it's like for Mrs. Sloan?
20:44Bad enough she had to bury a child, now she got your crazy friend, trying to convince her it wasn't an accident.
20:49You're gonna have to fill me in here, pal. Nope. Not my job. You just make sure she stays away from Kelly Sloan.
21:06I'm telling you, you guys setting yourself up for disappointment.
21:09Let us worry about that. Just try as hard as you can.
21:19I'm really trying.
21:27Well, try harder. Hmm?
21:34Anything?
21:39I'm sorry, I'm really trying.
21:42We're really scraping the bottom of the barrel here, huh?
21:45Concentrate, Luke.
21:49Tony, give him a boost.
22:02No, we don't. No, we don't.
22:04We don't, please.
22:06Like I said, it's very unlikely you'll see the lights today.
22:10On the off chance you do, though, I want you to let us know immediately for your own safety.
22:17For my sake.
22:19Also, do try to keep your teeth clenched. I'd hate for you to bite off your tongue.
22:24I'd hate for you to, though.
22:27I can't keep it off ìž… Team.
22:32You, I, I…
22:34You, you and y-
22:41All right.
23:11Huh, told her you could do it, champ.
23:16No one's going to believe in you if you don't believe in yourself.
23:19I think...
23:21I think I'm going to be sick.
23:26Okay, uh, sit here a few minutes, give them a glass of water, clean them up.
23:38Easy. First time's rough. Here. This'll help. Experiment.
23:47See the dots yet?
23:50That's okay, you will. Then you'll feel better.
23:52Speaking of which, you should eat something. Settle your stomach.
24:07You look like shit.
24:08Thank you. Had my first shots for dots.
24:12Tell me about it. You know, first time for me.
24:14I ripped the nila with my teeth and jabbed it right into Hendrix's balls.
24:18Did you really?
24:20Nah. I wanted to, though, and I still may.
24:23Truth is, I barfed all over my new chucks.
24:25Careful, George. Just take it slow.
24:29Hey, hey.
24:31Oof.
24:32Guess it was nothing compared to what George just went through.
24:35What's that?
24:37It was called the dream box.
24:39It's the final test in front half.
24:41I'm expecting it any day now.
24:43Wait.
24:44Sit ahead.
24:45Any idea what it does?
24:46From what I'm told, it shows you all kinds of bad shit it dredges up from your subconscious.
24:51Irish calls it your own personal horror movie.
24:54The only way to make it stop is by lining up the lights.
24:57It shows them you're ready for back half.
24:59Will you fight it?
25:01Well, I mean, you can try.
25:04Hey, look, birds.
25:06See any dots lately?
25:08You got dots for fucking brains.
25:10You and me, kid. Anytime.
25:12Hm?
25:14Heh, heh, heh, heh.
25:16Oh.
25:44Sorry.
25:45You're late.
25:46Yes, I, I...
25:47I'm sorry.
25:48I don't know.
25:49Did you take your pill?
25:50Can't you tell?
25:51I don't want to look at it.
25:52Better living through chemistry.
25:53Shh.
25:54Shh.
25:55Shh.
25:56Shh.
25:57Shh.
25:58Shh.
25:59Shh.
26:00Shh.
26:01Shh.
26:02Shh.
26:03Shh.
26:04Shh.
26:05Shh.
26:06Shh.
26:07Shh.
26:08Shh.
26:09Shh.
26:10Shh.
26:11Shh.
26:12Shh.
26:13Shh.
26:14Shh.
26:15There you go.
26:16You have the jump rope?
26:17Could you not talk?
26:19Yeah.
26:20Roger that.
26:25It's not leaving in suspense.
26:26Is there a way out of here?
26:27Look, there's always a way.
26:29It's pretty much a strategy game.
26:31The challenge is thinking of a way they haven't,
26:34or at least one they don't think we try.
26:37Okay, I'm all ears.
26:38We're not, we're not there yet, okay?
26:40We're still gathering data.
26:42Yeah.
26:43Now, security cams I've seen look like they were maybe state-of-the-art ten years ago.
26:49One in every communal room, and one on either side of every hallway.
26:54All motion activated.
26:55I'm guessing they're linked into the Wi-Fi, but, you know, there's probably a hardwired backup.
27:00Okay, so how do we knock him out?
27:02I don't know.
27:03We got maybe a, a Wi-Fi jammer laying around?
27:07Or, I don't know, a class or a laser pointer?
27:13Fresh out.
27:15My guess is that main server is locked up tight.
27:21So we can't knock him out.
27:24What's so funny?
27:26Uh, Tony says can't's a beta word.
27:30I fucking hate that guy.
27:35Still doesn't get us past the cameras.
27:37Well look, the easiest way to do that would be to recruit an inside man.
27:43An inside man?
27:45Here?
27:46Look, all organizations have weak links.
27:49Okay, people have secret resentments, secret lives.
27:52A lot of good books on spy recruitment.
27:54M-I-C-E.
27:56Mice.
27:57Money.
27:58Ideology.
27:59Coercion.
28:00Ego.
28:01The only problem we have is we only get one shot.
28:03We recruit one of the staff, get turned down, and they report it to Sigsby.
28:07Yeah, no second chances.
28:09Plus, we don't have a lot of time.
28:11Galicia said the average front half stay of any kid she's seen is about 15 days.
28:16What we really need is a super powerful TP.
28:19See inside the minds of the staff, even the stuff they're hiding.
28:23Maybe scramble their brains without them realizing it.
28:25Even Kalisha's not strong enough for that.
28:27Plus, by the time anyone develops any real power, they get shipped out.
28:36What the fuck is that?
28:41Nobody knows. Happens every week or so.
28:49Doesn't look very eco-friendly.
28:51Yeah, why don't you report them?
28:54True told me what happened with Annie today.
29:12Sounds like you really calmed her down. It's not easy.
29:15Yeah, well, um, I have some experience with that kind of thing.
29:20Oh, yeah?
29:22Yeah. Yeah, my mom.
29:25I'm sorry.
29:27What about your dad?
29:28Oh, um, yeah, he tried to look after her for a bit.
29:33But after he left, she started going off her meds.
29:36Basically, it became my job to diffuse her.
29:39I bet you were good at it.
29:41She just needed someone to listen to her.
29:43Illusions might have seemed crazy, but I usually found there was some grain of truth to them.
29:48Like Annie and Kelly Sloan.
29:51What do you mean? It wasn't an accident?
29:54What wasn't an accident?
29:56Whatever happened to Kelly Sloan's daughter.
29:58Place is called the Red Steps.
30:00Mm-hmm.
30:01Not really steps, just a rock formation in the middle of a river.
30:04Not really red, either.
30:06Something about the iron content in the soil. Anyway.
30:09All the time I was growing up, our parents told us never swim near the Red Steps.
30:15Something about the way the current gets around the rocks, it can pull you under.
30:19Even when the surface is calm as glass.
30:21We, uh, we had a place like that.
30:24Abandoned granite quarry.
30:26Kids used to call it the drowning machine.
30:28When I was in ninth grade, a few seniors went drinking up at the Red Steps night before homecoming.
30:39Maybe they got tipsy and fell in, or maybe they got drunk enough they actually decided to go for a swim.
30:46Either way, their bodies washed out four days later.
30:49Two boys, two girls.
30:52One of the girls was Zoe Slum.
30:54Kelly's daughter.
30:56Jesus.
30:58I didn't, uh, realize that Annie was here back then.
31:02Well, she wasn't.
31:04She must have heard the story.
31:06Convinced them how it wasn't an accident.
31:08I don't know.
31:09It's all messed up in her head now.
31:11Goodbye with her other conspiracy stuff.
31:12But it's been very upsetting for Kelly Slum.
31:15I can't imagine.
31:17Annie's got a good days and bad.
31:19Yeah.
31:20Yeah.
31:21Something she said.
31:22She, uh, she knew what my mother used to call me.
31:26Yeah.
31:27And you'll say some pretty mind-bending shit time to time.
31:30She's tuned to some strange frequencies.
31:33Well, go by tonight, check on her, see how she's doing.
31:37Well, that's good of you.
31:38Guess every town's got one.
31:41Yeah.
31:43No, I didn't mean...
31:44Oh.
31:45Well, it's okay.
31:46It was a long time ago.
31:48Thank you for the coffee.
31:50Thank you for the coffee.
32:18You literally have one guest left.
32:25Pee.
32:26No.
32:27Okay.
32:28Dead.
32:29You suck.
32:30I'll go back.
32:31Start a new round.
32:32Come on.
32:33Oh, wait.
32:34Don't worry.
32:35Come on.
32:37Jonathan.
32:42Amazing.
32:43Hey man.
32:44Hey.
32:45Check it out.
32:46Pre-stoneic!
32:53Boy.
32:54See ya.
32:55Three.
32:56You're messing up, man.
32:57I know you're going far out.
33:01Impressive.
33:12Very impressive.
33:13Dreambox sucks, but it's done wonders for my TK.
33:17Is that the purpose?
33:19To amp the TK?
33:21Amps everything.
33:24How are you feeling?
33:25Like someone turned my brain into a smoothie.
33:27But otherwise, all good.
33:32And how about your TP?
33:34Did you make those lights move?
33:37I think so.
33:38I don't really remember.
33:40What can I get for you?
33:46Give me an Armandjoy D3.
33:49I had you for a mounds kind of guy.
33:51Well, you're all full of surprises.
34:10Anytime.
34:13Why?
34:14Yes.
34:15Yes.
34:15Sometimes.
34:16Yes.
34:17It's a vowel.
34:17How about that?
34:18It's a vowel.
34:20Hi.
34:21Hey.
34:22Uh, George seems a little better.
34:24Okay.
34:25Yeah, not for long.
34:27If he was able to move those lights in the Dreambox, he's the next up for the BH.
34:30And you're 100% sure that isn't a good thing?
34:33Well, here we go again.
34:35I'm telling you, Shad, don't drink the red Kool-Aid.
34:37Anything anyone tells you in this place is a lie.
34:40Period.
34:40What about Maureen?
34:43Fucking spare me.
34:50How about some, uh, ping pong?
34:52Come on.
34:53Hey.
34:53Uh, yeah, don't.
34:56Luke, help me out here.
34:57I know you're not buying Maureen's whole go-along-to-get-along spiel.
35:05I don't know, man.
35:07Feels like there may be a real person in there.
35:09See?
35:10Yeah.
35:10If Maureen weren't for real, then why would she tell us about all the spots where the
35:14cameras can't hear us?
35:15As far as I'm concerned, with Iris gone, the only people we can trust are in this room
35:18right now.
35:18Plus one more.
35:20We're getting a new kid tonight.
35:21His name's Avery Dixon from Salt Lake City.
35:23They're gonna put him in Iris' room.
35:26You gonna work your usual magic on him, Shad?
35:28Fuck off!
35:29I really had the chicken box.
35:31I don't know.
35:32Judging by this kid's room?
35:34Looks like he may be a little young for magic.
35:36Okay, both of you need to just drop this.
35:38Seriously, we're just ridiculous.
35:39Look what I got.
35:41Oh, come on.
35:43No.
35:44No.
35:46It's mine, too.
35:46I can't.
35:47Uh, George?
35:48Huh?
35:49Instead of using it to give you tokens to get the sodas, why don't you use the machine
35:55to give you sodas without tokens?
35:56I think I got the other ones.
35:58Hey, who asked you?
36:00Just saying.
36:00I like my money.
36:01Let's have a game.
36:02All right.
36:03I don't need yours.
36:03Mine's better.
36:04Rally for serve.
36:05All right.
36:05Let's start.
36:06Okay?
36:07Let's start.
36:08Oh!
36:11That's not how...
36:11Hey, you're at a half and half.
36:13Can you leave a note on the counter?
36:40Oh, here.
36:43Let me help you with that.
36:47First there was Coke, then Diet Coke, then Coke Zero, and now I have to order something
36:51called Coke Zero Sugar.
36:53Oh.
36:54Late-stage capitalism, right?
36:56Actually, it's not.
36:58Consumerism stands apart from any predictive economic model.
37:01Yeah.
37:01Yeah.
37:02Yeah.
37:02Yeah.
37:02Okay.
37:04Sure.
37:04I know kings will say otherwise, but anyone with half a mind knows it's production, not consumption
37:10that drives an economy.
37:12Well, you, uh, you clearly have more than half a mind.
37:14I was three years into my economics doctorate at Jamaica University in Mogadishu.
37:19In 2007, Al-Shabaab came after my family.
37:22We had to leave.
37:22Sorry, that must have been hard.
37:26Two years in a refugee camp in Kenya was hard, yes.
37:29But here, now, in Maine, it's like a new beginning.
37:33Praise Allah.
37:35Praise to you and your brother, too.
37:37And their coffee is on us from here on out.
37:39Have a good night.
39:12Oh, hey, look what some dipshit tossed in the dumpster out behind Larson's hardware.
39:20It's a concertina, so don't go mistaking it for an accordion.
39:24Oh, I won't.
39:25One of my sisters used to play a little.
39:34Clearly not me.
39:37But she wouldn't have been able to tell you about that institute, what they really do up there.
39:42Stay right here.
39:43Stay right here.
39:49Stay there.
39:50Eddie.
39:50Police, get down on the ground.
40:02Police, get down on the ground.
40:16We'll be right here.
40:17We'll be right there.
40:21Move.
40:22Let her go.
40:22Go.
40:23Hey, go.
40:23Quick.
40:23Ah.
40:24Shots fired!
40:40Shots fired!
40:41DeBearer Brothers gas station.
40:45At least one down.
40:46Uh, plane close, please, on both sides.
40:49Hey.
40:50Hey, Mr. DeBearer.
40:52It's Tim. Can you hear me, man?
40:55I'm gonna have to turn you over, okay?
40:56I gotta turn you.
40:58I know, I know, I know.
40:59I know that it hurts.
41:00I just gotta take a look at you, buddy.
41:02Breathe for me.
41:07Here, give me your hands.
41:08Put pressure on that, okay?
41:09Put pressure on it.
41:10Look at you, man, okay?
41:11You need pressure on it, but I will be right back.
41:13I will be right back, okay?
41:17You got any alcohol, Mr. DeBearer?
41:20Alcohol?
41:22No?
41:24I'm coming, I'm coming.
41:31I'm right here.
41:33I'm right here.
41:34I'm right here.
41:36Sue, we got me if you answered me.
41:37If you answered me.
41:38Okay.
41:41Breathe, breathe, breathe.
41:42That's my man, okay.
41:46Let's get it in there.
41:47It's gonna be okay.
41:48It's gonna be okay.
41:49Help us.
41:49Daniel, burning the midnight oil again.
42:01Setting up for tomorrow.
42:02I think we're one dream box session away with Mr. Isles.
42:07Good news.
42:08We're gonna need him.
42:09All the keyholes coming up.
42:12We'll be ready.
42:13A couple more right behind aisles.
42:18What about the Alice kit?
42:20Well, his initial tests indicate pretty low TP.
42:25Not surprising, given his moderate BDNF levels.
42:28But we'll get him there.
42:29Good to know.
42:31Of course, it must have occurred to you that even a moderate BDNF score, together with the
42:39Alice Boy Superior IQ, might make him uniquely valuable.
42:43My job is to actuate and invigorate his TP to the point where he can contribute to the
42:51hunt.
42:51Of course, Daniel.
42:53That's all our jobs.
42:55But you do know, in certain cases, our subject's true value, an infinitely higher value, might
43:03lie elsewhere.
43:05Uh, uh, don't worry.
43:10The microphones on this corridor are experiencing a temporary malfunction.
43:16Mr. Statham.
43:17Trevor, please.
43:20Trevor, look, I don't know what Sixby told you, but I'm not using my position to scan for
43:26PCs.
43:27Please, not only is that outside our mission purview now, but I'm also very aware that there
43:34are other facilities so tasked.
43:37Well said.
43:39Complete bullshit.
43:41But well said.
43:44Excuse me?
43:52It's okay.
43:52It's okay.
43:53I got you, man.
43:53They're right here.
43:55Come on.
43:56Come on, come on.
43:57Come on, come on, come on.
44:19Hey, I want to see hands.
44:20Drew, we need an ambulance here, man.
44:23Drew, now!
44:24Okay.
44:25Get on your radio.
44:25Call Wendy.
44:26Tell her we need an ambulance.
44:27Got a GSW to the stomach.
44:29Then tell her we need an APB on a Jeep, I think, um, compass, North Carolina.
44:33Plate starts with WTB9.
44:35That's what I got.
44:36It's a, uh, jeep.
44:37Drew, ambulance, man.
44:38You got this, bro.
44:39Uh, uh, uh, yeah.
44:40Wendy, uh, we're gonna need an ambulance.
44:42The Nobiras is placed.
44:43Mr. Nobiras, um...
44:44Already on the way.
44:4515 minutes.
44:46It's on the way.
44:47APB.
44:47But only Jeep's supposed to put out any Jeep.
44:49Well then, tell him that I fucking forced you.
44:51Wendy, we're also gonna need an APB.
44:52I got this.
44:53On a late model Jeep, uh, uh, compass.
44:56Uh, uh, NC plate.
44:58NC plates.
44:59WTB9.
45:01Then three more.
45:01Plate starts.
45:02WTB9.
45:03Uh, color?
45:04Uh, dark.
45:05I think, I think black.
45:06But both guys in it were, uh, late teens, early 20s.
45:08White, both arms.
45:09Uh, uh, vehicle's dark.
45:10Two male suspects, white, 20-something arms.
45:15Dad.
45:16Dad.
45:17Dad, we chose Fabienne because she knows what she's doing.
45:21Remember her patient ratings?
45:23The highest of any aid with the agency.
45:28No.
45:29No, I don't think she's hiding your glasses.
45:34Okay.
45:37Um, what?
45:41Oh, I have such a terrific class this year.
45:45Yeah, I, I really think third grade is my favorite age to teach.
45:52Because, yeah, their minds are developing so fast.
45:56And you can have so much impact.
45:58We're, we're finishing, um, A Wrinkle in Time, which, of course, they can't get enough of.
46:04And I thought next semester we'd try the Phantom Tobliff.
46:11Why not?
46:13You read it to me when I was dying.
46:14Oh, because how could I forget?
46:22Oh, okay.
46:24Okay.
46:26Love you.
46:27Sixbiz only directive is to keep the conveyor belt moving, stay ahead of the keyholes.
46:43Right.
46:44But there's another perspective, one I think you and I share.
46:48And that perspective takes in the almost incalculable value of identifying individuals with genuine PC potential.
46:58You and I may share that larger perspective, but I understand from Zigsby that the Institute group does not, at least as far as the work we do.
47:10She sure as shit right about that.
47:12Okay.
47:12Wait, are you, are you saying there's a third party?
47:36Not a third party.
47:38Multiple.
47:39All willing to funnel astronomical sums of money to whoever can provide them with that kind of competitive advantage.
47:50So, what do I do?
47:53Exactly what you've been doing.
47:56Find a kid with potential for PC development and develop him.
48:01Ellis, you mean?
48:02You tell me, Doc.
48:04Identifying and developing, that's your department.
48:07Oh.
48:08All I'm offering is room for you to work.
48:12And a buyer.
48:16And what about Zigsby?
48:18What about her?
48:21I'd say watch your pillow talk, but I can't imagine she's much for talk.
48:29See you tomorrow, Doctor.
48:31You need to keep the scene secure until the CSI team gets here from Banger.
48:57It's supposed to get an ETA shortly.
49:00Damn it.
49:02Is the bear going to be okay?
49:04EMTs have him stabilized for now.
49:08He's been awful lucky so far.
49:10Let's hope it holds.
49:10Not just luck, sir.
49:13Help arrive pretty quick.
49:19Nice job, Drew.
49:20Thank you, Chief.
49:22With the APB, too.
49:24War got out quick enough to state he's could run roadblocks both ways on the interstate.
49:27They figured they got the assholes cornered.
49:32Well, I should tape up so I can start my report.
49:37Here's two, Tim.
49:39You want to be sure you get all the details right.
49:42I've got a few more doors to get to tonight, boss.
49:44Okay, if I give it to you in the morning?
49:45Just don't forget to include the part where you chased off two armed robbers with no weapon.
50:04No, you were great.
50:06No, I wasn't.
50:08But next time, diapers and Vaseline.
50:11Who knew?
50:14Next time.
50:15Jesus Christ.
50:42Hey, hey, hey, hey.
50:43Hey, don't cry.
50:44It's going to be okay.
50:45Oh, my God.
50:47She's going to be okay.
50:49Shit, uh, can we get him some new pants?
50:51Yeah, I'll go.
50:52You're going to be okay.
50:53Hey, you're Avery, right?
50:55You're from Utah?
50:56No, it's going to be okay.
50:57It's going to be okay.
50:58It's going to be okay.
50:58You want to be okay.
50:59You want Reese's?
51:08No.
51:10He's allergic.
51:11How do you know that?
51:13He told me.
51:15Okay, here we go.
51:16Come on.
51:19You're okay.
51:20You're okay.
51:20Let's get you back to your room.
51:28It's not my room.
51:32This one's strong.
51:35I've never felt one so strong.
51:39Well, how strong?
51:40Well, let's put it this way.
51:42My TP's a D1 swingman.
51:44This kid's Michael fucking Jordan.
51:51Ask and he shall receive.
52:13So, go ahead.
52:17But he can't do let that out.
52:21Bye.
52:22Bye.
52:25Bye.
52:28Bye.
52:33Bye.
52:35Bye.
52:36Bye.
52:39Bye.
