00:00Shout, shout,
00:29Shout, shout,
00:59Shout, shout,
01:11Let it on out.
01:14These are the things I can do without.
01:19Come on, I'm talking to you.
01:24Come on.
01:26Come on, I'm talking to you.
01:31Come on, I'm talking to you.
01:35Come on, I'm talking to you.
01:44Come on, I'm talking to you.
01:50Come on, I'm talking to you.
01:55Come on, I'm talking to you.
01:59Come on, I'm talking to you.
02:02Come on, I'm talking to you.
02:07Come on, I'm talking to you.
02:11Come on, I'm talking to you.
02:14Come on.
02:30Boys room, down the hall. Third door on your right.
02:54Is there a problem?
02:55Uh, well, I'm finished.
03:08Kid, what are you even doing here?
03:10Uh, taking the test, same as you.
03:13Wait, how old are you?
03:16Uh, 14.
03:17Are you a genius, like in a movie?
03:21Well, I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.
03:25Wait, what did you get for the, uh, the last question in the math about the hotel?
03:30Do you remember?
03:31Uh, it was A.
03:32Shit, are you sure?
03:34I got C.
03:38Uh, you know, that, that's how they get you.
03:44Uh, you know, that, that's how they get you.
03:58C is a terrific equation, really.
04:00But, uh, so you're already figuring the room tax into the nightly charge.
04:04So when you multiply everything inside the parentheses...
04:08You end up counting it twice.
04:12Yeah, it's okay, you know, I'm sure, I'm sure you got the rest of them right.
04:15No.
04:16I forgot how to calculate the fucking tax.
04:19I suck.
04:22Is it weird being you?
04:23Uh, and that's an I.
04:28There's an I?
04:30Yeah, sure.
04:30K-U-S-I.
04:33Is it strange we always play with animals I've never heard of and can't spell?
04:37Oh, nice try, Ralph.
04:40Euro, step into a reverse layup, nothing but net.
04:43In your dreams, Gobert clearing out for Ellis, and he's gonna take his man off the dribble,
04:47and you see Euro step into the...
04:49Nice shot, Phenom.
04:51You almost had it, but that Euro step is looking slick as hell.
04:54Shit, man.
04:56What's wrong?
04:57My Timberwolves jersey, man, it's ripped.
04:59I'm sure your mom can sew it.
05:00No big deal, man.
05:02Please, can I have your attention?
05:04Ladies and gentlemen, the sooner we get one more volunteer, the sooner we can board you all,
05:08and we'll still have a shot at an on-time arrival.
05:11We've already been waiting here an hour.
05:12We're offering a courtesy booking on the 6.45 a.m. departure tomorrow,
05:21as well as a hotel voucher and a $200 credit.
05:29My mistake, that's $200 cash.
05:35400, plus the hotel and rebooking.
05:38Now she's a game show host.
05:39Do I hear a thousand?
05:43600.
05:44Ma'am.
05:46600.
05:48Plus a cash refund for my ticket.
05:50You got yourself a seat.
05:57This is Keith. Leave a message.
05:59Hey, Keith, it's Tim.
06:01Listen, I don't think I'm gonna make it out to New York after all.
06:05I hope your dad knows how much I appreciate the offer.
06:08I know he doesn't really need an extra guy on a routine exactly type.
06:13I just think...
06:18I just really wouldn't be any good to him right now anyway.
06:28I don't know.
06:38I'm not going to have my advice.
06:43No.
06:44I don't know.
06:45I don't know.
06:46Thanks.
06:48Not a rapist? Or a psychotic?
06:52No, ma'am.
06:54Of course, that's exactly what a psychotic would say.
06:58Going as far as Maine? Duffel suggests you might be.
07:02I guess I hadn't decided.
07:04In that case, I got a proposition for you.
07:06One hand washes the other.
07:08Can you scratch my back?
07:09No. There'll be no back scratching if you don't mind.
07:11And I ain't asking.
07:13Thing is, I got a truck full of books.
07:16Forty-some boxes, each one heavier than a son of a bitch.
07:19If you help me unload and reload at each one of my stops,
07:22I'll take you as far as the public library in Denison, Maine.
07:26Sounds good.
07:28Throw your stuff in the back.
07:43We were in Principal Greer's office for almost an hour.
07:47How long have the two of you been talking about MIT?
07:55Since October.
07:57Look, he said he felt that Roderick Day had taken me as far as he could.
08:02And you agree?
08:04MIT's where you belong?
08:10Yeah.
08:11Yeah.
08:12Yeah, I think, I think so.
08:14You know, um...
08:16But I don't know how to...
08:18Say it.
08:19Try.
08:21We're talking about uprooting our lives here, so...
08:24Try.
08:26There's just, there's so much I want to learn.
08:32And figure out.
08:35It makes me feel so...
08:37Small.
08:38You know, I have this dream.
08:40And...
08:41I'm standing on the edge of an abyss.
08:44And it's full of all the things I don't know.
08:46And, well, I guess an abyss can't be full, so I'll call it a chasm.
08:50But it's bottomless.
08:51And there's a bridge.
08:53And I want to walk across that bridge.
08:55And raise my hands.
08:56And then all the things from the darkness become floating up.
09:04I'm sorry.
09:05I'm sorry.
09:06Butterfingers.
09:07I'm sorry.
09:13Look.
09:15Your brain.
09:16And what it can do is a gift.
09:21God knows it didn't come from us.
09:24I figure that means we ought to do whatever's in our power to see how far it can take you.
09:31You know what they say about the abyss, right?
09:33You look into it, it looks right back into you.
09:37Yeah, you bet it does.
09:38Mm-hmm.
09:39Mm-hmm.
09:40Mm-hmm.
09:41Mm-hmm.
09:42Mm-hmm.
09:43Oh, yeah.
09:57I work.
09:58If the parents wake up, we might have to get wet.
10:28No choice.
10:30Make it 45 minutes to go.
10:33Copy.
10:3445 to go.
10:58Stop.
11:00Stop.
11:01Stop.
11:02Stop.
11:04Stop.
11:06Stop.
12:44Just got off of Boston PD.
12:47Seems you forgot a few things on your application.
12:51Well, in 2011, you received a commendation for life-saving again in 2018.
12:572020, you got the officer of the year.
13:00Well, they had to give it to somebody.
13:02I always showed up on time, never called in sick, so...
13:05Okay.
13:06I don't know if that is becoming modest to your low self-esteem, but I don't like it.
13:11All right.
13:13I earned that award.
13:15I applied for this job, kind of spur of the moment.
13:18More time to think, I ought to put it down.
13:19But you remember to put down the incident at Westfield Mall?
13:25Figured you had a right to know.
13:28Lieutenant I spoke to said the guy he shot had an AR in 200 rounds.
13:32It wasn't a guy.
13:33It was a kid.
13:3516 years old.
13:35And, uh, he hadn't shot anybody.
13:3916 or not, a kid threw down on a cop.
13:45Here you go.
13:46Lieutenant said you were off duty.
13:49Yeah, I, uh, swung by the mall after my shift, pick up some dress shoes for a wedding.
13:54Still in uniform, this woman comes running up from the parking lot,
13:57said she just saw some guy pull a rifle out of his car.
14:01So far, so good.
14:01Yeah, yeah, right up until the moment where the responding officers smelled the alcohol on me.
14:07Gave me the test.
14:10I had two old-fashions of beachcombers right before I hit the shoe store.
14:16You were off duty.
14:17But in uniform.
14:20Department let me pick.
14:22Resignation or dismissal.
14:24You ordinarily a drinking man?
14:26I was.
14:27After that, for a while.
14:29Long enough to end my marriage, but...
14:31Not anymore.
14:34If I were to breath-lize you right now, what would you blow?
14:38Go ahead and find out.
14:40No.
14:42Don't believe I will.
14:44I don't believe I need to.
14:48Well, son, you are ridiculously overqualified for this job.
14:52But if you want it, it's yours.
14:54What if I want it?
14:56All right.
14:58You start tonight, 8 to 6.
14:59Just like that.
15:01Just like that.
15:02Just like that.
15:02Just like that.
15:02Just like that.
15:03I'm gonna have to do it.
15:04All right.
15:05No.
15:06No.
15:06No.
15:07No.
15:07No.
15:10No.
15:10No.
15:11No.
15:20No.
15:20No.
15:23No!
15:24No.
15:25No.
15:26No.
15:26I don't know.
15:56I don't know.
16:26I was going to change it to I choose to be crappy, but they might take away my pen.
16:36Yeah, sometimes they let shit slide, sometimes they don't.
16:39Name's Kalisha.
16:40I also respond to Shao.
16:41Uh, what's happening here?
16:44Where are we?
16:45Welcome to the Institute.
16:47Institute of what?
16:49Okay, yeah, I remember how many questions I had my first day.
16:54You know, it's usually just easier...
16:55Are we still in Minneapolis?
16:56No, not in Minneapolis.
17:03And more Toto, we're in Maine.
17:06Well, at least that's what they say.
17:08Who's they?
17:10You really can't stop yourself, can you?
17:11Is that a smart kid thing?
17:16Why would you say that?
17:18They give us a rundown of all the new arrivals.
17:20Your name's Luke Ellis.
17:21You're from Minneapolis.
17:22You like basketball and chess.
17:25And you're smart.
17:26So, how smart are you?
17:28No, no.
17:29No, um, I think the real question is, are you TK or TP?
17:32That's the one thing they never tell us about the newbies.
17:35Yeah, you lost me.
17:37TP is telepathy.
17:39TK is...
17:39Telekinesis.
17:41So, which are you?
17:43Supposedly, no one's both when they get here, but, um, thinking TK?
17:49I'm TP.
17:50You read minds?
17:52I always have been able to.
17:54Off and on.
17:55Well, sometimes things move around me, but that can't be enough to...
18:02To land you here?
18:06Have we...
18:07Have we been kidnapped?
18:10They call it recruited.
18:13Like, by the military?
18:15I don't know.
18:18Do our parents know where we are?
18:19Can we talk to them?
18:21No, actually, apparently our work here is to classify,
18:25for any contact with the outside.
18:28I mean, well, someone must run this place.
18:31Miss Sigsby.
18:32Except for the medical stuff.
18:34That's Dr. Hendricks.
18:36Medical stuff?
18:37Oh, it's just tests, mostly.
18:39And shots.
18:39Lots of shots.
18:40Um, at least that's what it's like in front half.
18:43We're in front half right now.
18:44Is there a back half?
18:45Yeah, where we go when we graduate front half.
18:48We can see it from the playground.
18:49Not here, but...
18:51I can't really tell you what's going on in there.
18:53No contact.
18:54What do Sigsby and Hendricks say?
18:56They're not real big on answering questions.
18:58When do I get to meet them?
19:00Hard to say.
19:02They usually let the newbies wander a while first.
19:04Hmm.
19:08Why would they do it like that?
19:11No one's ever thought to question that.
19:13If you'd read his file, you'd know.
19:19They want to tell us this place isn't so bad and figure we're more likely to accept it coming from another kid.
19:26Predicts he'll notice things, others won't.
19:30Goes on at great lengths about his observational and analytical powers.
19:35Why make up our rules?
19:37You know, if the boy's as smart as you say, we should be considering him for the PC track.
19:47We're not having this conversation again.
19:50Why can't we...
19:50PC tracks on indefinite hold.
19:52My main priority is keep the conveyor belt moving.
19:59You've seen the latest target packages.
20:01You know how tight the keyhole's gotten.
20:03He's talking to himself.
20:14Yeah.
20:15I bet he does that a lot.
20:28I think he's ready for me.
20:33You know, it's actually not so bad here.
20:38We have video games, movies.
20:40The playground's open until late.
20:43Um, just...
20:44Hey, just make sure you do what they tell you to.
20:47Also, by the way, have you ever had chicken pox?
20:50What?
20:54Kaleesha.
20:58Luke.
20:59Miss Sigsby would like a word with you.
21:01Well, 75 years ago, I bet this was state of the art.
21:25It's actually kind of cool.
21:31Retro.
21:34Three spots in town have punch keys for it to mark your progress.
21:37Punch it at each end of Water Street.
21:39First at the station, then at the bank.
21:41Once more at Hopper's Jewelry on garish, then back to the station.
21:45Rest of the doors you can mark with chalk.
21:47Just wipe it off on your way back.
21:49It's a 2.3 mile loop.
21:50At Whitlock, you used to make, uh, six circuits each shift.
21:55So that's what, uh, 14 miles?
21:59I guess I'll be getting my steps in.
22:00Sure, and I'll work out a schedule.
22:02We'll get you nights off each week.
22:03Probably Monday, Tuesday.
22:04Sounds usually pretty quiet after the weekend, but we might have to shift you.
22:07If you stick around, that is.
22:09You have some issue with me, Officer Gullickson?
22:14If so, speak now.
22:18The only time will tell.
22:20Thing is, we're a good crew.
22:22We're small, but good.
22:24Here's some guy off the street.
22:26People joke about a night knocker, but it's key for a force as small as ours.
22:31Ounce of prevention's worth a pound of cure.
22:34My grandpa used to say that.
22:35Okay.
22:36He was a night knocker.
22:37That's why I applied.
22:41Night knocker's an analog job in a digital age.
22:45Maybe we're just in a analog town.
22:48I sure hope so.
23:04Is there a stackhouse?
23:05Sure, can you work as you want?
23:07What do you mean?
23:09What's the next?
23:10No.
23:11That's it.
23:12That's it.
23:12That's it.
23:12Welcome, Luke.
23:25So, you have met Mr. Stockhouse, Chief of Security, and this is Dr. Hendricks.
23:34He's the architect of the cutting-edge science we do here.
23:37My name is Ms. Sigsby, and I'm-
23:40I'm the boss.
23:41I know.
23:42And you know I know because you watched Kalisha tell me.
23:45So, why don't we get to the part where you tell me what's going on here.
23:48Sorry.
23:49You're just cooler than most of the first-dayers we see.
23:54You went through all this trouble to get me here, and now you want me to what?
23:58Cry and scream and beg you to take me home?
24:00Would it do any good?
24:02Not at all.
24:03Please sit.
24:04Thank you, Dr. Hendricks.
24:10I'll take it from here.
24:12Looking forward to working with you.
24:16Sometimes our new arrivals will lash out in their disorientation, so Mr. Stockhouse escorts
24:35each of you until we're satisfied that you're not going to hurt anyone, yourself included.
24:41No.
24:43Have a soda.
24:44Okay.
24:45Jellybean.
24:46Why?
24:47So you can see which color I choose?
24:48Get a sense of my personality?
24:49No.
24:50Because I like jellybeans.
24:51I like jellybeans.
24:52Why?
24:53So you can see which color I choose?
24:54Get a sense of my personality?
24:55No.
24:56Because I like jellybeans.
24:57I thought you might like them, too.
24:58You like to analyze, I gather.
24:59The more I focus on logic, the less I have to think about being kidnapped.
25:04That's not a word we use here.
25:05Right.
25:06Recruited.
25:07Okay.
25:08Okay.
25:09Okay.
25:10Okay.
25:11Jellybean.
25:12Why?
25:13So you can see which color I choose?
25:14Get a sense of my personality?
25:15No.
25:16Because I like jellybeans.
25:17I thought you might like them, too.
25:18You like to analyze, I gather.
25:19The more I focus on logic, the less I have to think about being kidnapped.
25:22That's not a word we use here.
25:25Right.
25:26Recruited.
25:27And let me be the first to say congratulations.
25:32For?
25:34For being here.
25:37The work you're about to become a part of is, without a doubt, the most important work
25:45taking place anywhere on Earth.
25:48You are, without question, about to participate in saving the world.
25:53Okay.
25:54I want to talk to my parents now.
25:56As Kalisha told you, that's not possible.
26:01Let me talk to them, and I'll do whatever you want.
26:04This isn't a negotiation, Luke.
26:07A boy with your intellect shouldn't have any trouble understanding.
26:11Without our work, the world as we know it would cease to be.
26:20That's bigger than any of us.
26:23It's my responsibility to see that that work gets done, so.
26:28It will get done.
26:30And what exactly is our work?
26:33I'll leave it to your fellow recruits to fill you in on that.
26:39You're more likely to accept it coming from another kid.
26:42Actually, that's another word we try not to use.
26:47You're not kids.
26:48Not here.
26:49There's no bedtime.
26:50There's no chores.
26:52There's no food you're not allowed.
26:55Doing grownup work?
26:56Should be treated like grownups.
26:58But at the same time, bear in mind, this is not your home.
27:04This is not your school.
27:07Here, break a rule, there's a grownup consequence.
27:12And what are those rules?
27:15Glad you asked.
27:16The main rule is follow any order given from a staff member
27:21without question or delay.
27:23You'll be given a number of injections.
27:27You'll be given a number of tests.
27:30You will comply with all of them.
27:33You won't, with maybe a few exceptions, find them excessively unpleasant.
27:41Your mental and physical condition will be monitored regularly.
27:46And then when you come to the end of your service,
27:48we'll wipe your memory, send you home.
27:51Home?
27:53To my parents?
27:54Yes, of course.
27:56Are they alive?
27:59Yes, of course they're alive.
28:01We're not monsters.
28:03Do they know where I am?
28:06Generally.
28:08At any rate, I think you'll find your time here will pass quite quickly, Luke.
28:17Luke.
28:18And when you leave us, and when you wake up in your own bed one morning, none of this will
28:26have happened.
28:28The only sad part is you won't have the memory of the great privilege of having been asked
28:34to serve, not just your country, but humanity.
28:39How many people does each kid here know?
28:43School, families, you can't just wipe all their memories.
28:47You'd be surprised what we can do.
28:48Pleasure meeting you.
28:57My room, it's not supposed to make me feel comfortable, right?
29:02You're just supposed to let me know you're trying to make me comfortable.
29:15This feels like a very dark time for you, Luke.
29:20But if you'll simply do as you're told, before you know it, you back out in the sunshine.
29:28Maybe hitting some baskets with Ralph.
29:32Oh my God.
29:35About the difference between your family and your family and your family and your family
29:38and your family and your family.
29:40Who is that?
29:41I'm sure you are having that.
29:43That's what I want to do.
29:45My family and the family, the family, the family for you and our family.
29:49So, you're listening to your family?
29:51Come on.
29:52I'm sure you are listening to your family.
29:54What are you doing?
29:55Ha, ha, ha ha.
29:57Ha, ha ha.
29:59I'm telling you, Patriots, play outside our army, I'm giving you a straight note.
30:25They don't want you to know, because they don't think you can handle the truth.
30:32But we can handle it.
30:33Hi.
30:34Hm.
30:35Must be Ed Whitlock's replacement.
30:37I heard a rumor they found one.
30:39Tim Jameson.
30:40New night knocker.
30:42Ha-ha.
30:43Annie Ledoux, old weirdo.
30:45Hey, remind me.
30:48Who was this guy again?
30:50You don't know George Allman.
30:52Still got your blinders on, huh?
30:55Do you have any fillings?
30:58Sorry?
30:59Open your mouth.
31:00Because...
31:02That's how they listen.
31:05Huh.
31:07Ah.
31:09Ah.
31:10Oh, good.
31:11Someone was smart enough to get you gold.
31:14Well, that was the army, and I'm sure they just got whatever was cheapest.
31:18You know, they might have remembered where porcelain comes from.
31:23You, uh, you think that the Chinese government is bugging our mouths?
31:31Kidding, right?
31:32Am I?
31:33Sport?
31:34My mom used to call me sport.
31:35I know.
31:36After the fella from that stage show, with all the black folks in it, um, pork and...
31:50Pork and beans or something.
31:52Porky and Beth?
31:54How do you know that?
31:59Hm.
32:00Do yourself a favor.
32:03Start listening to George's gems.
32:06Because there are things going on every day in this world that you would not fucking believe.
32:24It looks like I just barely caught you.
32:41I thought I had 48 hours of liberty.
32:44Just touching base.
32:46You got the dossier for the next recruit?
32:49Yeah.
32:50Kid's got a chaotic family situation might complicate the snatch.
32:54Makes the cover story easier.
32:56As soon as you're back, we'll go through scenarios.
33:00Make sure you know the dossier.
33:03I always do.
33:09The Ellis snatch...
33:10It's no good looking backward.
33:12It went how it went.
33:14It only went wrong because they made us rush it.
33:20As soon as the MIT news broke, the Ellis kid was going to get a bunch of publicity.
33:27The decision was made...
33:29Well, I wish those bastards would come with us on an op sometime.
33:31See the consequences of their decisions.
33:38Sorry, sir.
33:50I never did not do any technical problems.
33:51Yes, sir.
33:53I'm going to go see the chances of this past you.
33:56Not even the fact that he's interfering with us.
33:57I know that you were touching the truth.
34:00I've gotta go see the specifics of some of the other things.
34:02I'm just disappointed because you're not going to be in the next couple of years.
34:04You're also going to go see theencryptons in the next couple of years.
34:06I'm just going to go see the Pink Fun Fact.
34:08Now, I'm gonna have to go see the glasses, You're giving me a car.
34:09I'm going to go see the glasses on.
34:10You're sweating your clothes on.
34:12And you're getting to go see the glasses.
34:13I'm going to go see the glasses on.
34:14Hey, we got a bogey.
34:43Copy that.
34:44How can we help you folks?
35:09I don't know, I guess we took the wrong exit off of 161, and by the time we realized
35:16that we're a mile deep in these woods, we got no cell service.
35:18Yeah, these pines, they play hell with your signal.
35:24What's over there?
35:25Infectious disease lab.
35:27Nasty stuff.
35:31Nasty stuff.
35:32Hmm.
35:33So, straight back the way you came, okay?
35:38Left on the fire road, bear right at the port, switch your way back out.
35:45Left, then right.
35:46Go well.
35:47Yeah, we're going.
35:48Thanks.
35:49Sure thing.
35:50Folks take care.
35:53Okay.
35:54Okay.
35:55Okay.
35:56Okay.
35:57Okay.
35:58Okay.
35:59Okay.
36:00Okay.
36:01Okay.
36:02Okay.
36:03Okay.
36:04Okay.
36:05Okay.
36:06Well, you know, Ms. Sixby explain about the tokens?
36:07No.
36:08No.
36:09You'd think she'd remember as many intakes as she's done.
36:13Tokens are a reward for being a good co-operator.
36:17Tokens are a reward for being a good co-operator.
36:22Let's you get treats from the vending machines.
36:32Hey, pretty lady, how's it going?
36:34Just fine.
36:39How about you, Luke? Are Justin okay?
36:41Silent treatment, huh? It's fine for now.
36:49Here's the thing. Treat us right, we'll treat you right.
36:52Go along to get alone.
36:55Words of wisdom, Luke, my boy. Words of wisdom. Come on in.
37:07It won't be a minute.
37:11Have a seat, champ.
37:22Up on up, I said.
37:25What are you gonna do? Tattoo me?
37:28Gosh, no. I'm just gonna trip your earlobe, no biggie.
37:32All our guests get up. It's like getting a piercing.
37:34I'm not a guest. I'm a prisoner.
37:36And you're not putting anything in my ear.
37:38I am, though.
37:41Look, it's just a little pinch. Be over quick.
37:43Maureen will give you a bunch of tokens.
37:46What do you say?
37:47No.
37:57Are you sure?
37:58Yeah.
37:59Yeah.
38:20Bet that smarts a lot more than a little pinch in the ear, huh?
38:23Do you want another?
38:26No.
38:28Ready to get in the chair?
38:29Now, are you gonna behave? Or do we need the straps?
38:44Chase.
38:45All right, champ. You're all done for now.
38:50Grab you some gauze for that ear in case it bleeds.
38:53Put some ice on it, and you have yourself a great rest of the day.
38:57Evening.
38:58Hey there.
38:59Hmm.
39:00Tim.
39:02Meet Bedelia.
39:03Oh.
39:04She likes to greet all our guests and help parents.
39:05They're all done for now.
39:06I'm going to grab you some gauze for that ear in case it bleeds.
39:08Put some ice on it, and you have yourself a great rest of the day.
39:10Evening.
39:24Hey there.
39:26Tim, meet Bedelia.
39:28Oh.
39:29She likes to greet all our guests.
39:32Bedelia?
39:35How's night knocking?
39:36Yeah, it's only been one night, but so far so good.
39:40You say so.
39:41Me, I wouldn't be caught dead working for Chief Snowflake's piss-an outfit.
39:45Even if it meant getting to stare at Officer Gullickson's ass all day.
39:50She is in peace.
39:54You have a good night, Mr. Hudson.
39:57What, did I offend you?
40:00Hi.
40:02You, uh, going my way?
40:04Re-supply run.
40:06Georgia's drive-time show is having a marathon this weekend.
40:10I can't risk losing comms.
40:12Well, you want me to pull this thing to your place?
40:14Just gotta stop by the station, start my shift.
40:16Might make it slow going for you, but...
40:19I can clear my schedule.
40:22Okay, then. Let's do it.
40:25Don't think I didn't see you talking to him.
40:28Mr. Hollister?
40:30Living in this hotel, why wouldn't I talk to him?
40:32That man.
40:33Where's my reception?
40:44Hey.
40:45Hey.
40:47Mystery lady returns.
40:48I told you.
40:49Sometimes I have to go out of town unexpectedly.
40:58Hey, Alex.
41:01Got it.
41:03Now, um, where did you move things off last time?
41:07You were starting to tell me about the place you work.
41:10Oh, that's funny. I don't remember that.
41:13You were pretty drunk.
41:14What?
41:15Me?
41:16Never.
41:17Seriously, why can't you talk about it?
41:19We've been over this. I just can't.
41:22Especially not with you.
41:24You knew I was a journalist when we met.
41:26It's not like I was undercover.
41:28Yeah, but I didn't approach you because I wanted to talk.
41:32There you go.
41:33Oh, thanks.
41:35No?
41:36You know, everyone in Denison has a theory about what you're really doing out there in the woods.
41:43Casey at the gas station, he says that you guys inherited the alien spacecraft after Area 51 was compromised.
41:51That's why drones aren't allowed to fly over.
41:54Alien spacecraft, huh?
41:56Then again, June at the diner, she says you're running a flavor lab.
42:00Like for snack foods.
42:03And all the security is to safeguard the secret recipe.
42:07Herbs and spices.
42:11What do you say?
42:12I say a girl hot as you.
42:14Don't give a fuck what she does for work.
42:30I feel like...
42:31I can't get that.
42:36I can't get that.
42:37I can't get that.
42:38I can't get that.
42:43I would never do that.
42:48But I might be.
42:51Let's be here.
42:52Hey, I'm here to bring you to dinner.
43:00Oh, you got your jewelry.
43:02Yeah, I guess I probably should have warned you about that.
43:05Well, I don't think it would have made much of a difference.
43:08But, you know, besides I was having a lot of dumb-tongue meal at one time.
43:13Okay, come on.
43:14Let's go.
43:16Everyone's excited to meet you.
43:17Nikki included.
43:18Even if he is too cool to show it.
43:22Uh, I got a little sidetracked last time before we finished discussing how you read minds.
43:32Right.
43:33How does it work?
43:35Um, it's actually not as cool as people think it is.
43:38I can tell you your grandmother's name, but only if you put it in the front of your mind.
43:43I can't go deep.
43:43Rebecca.
43:55I mean, that's still pretty fucking cool.
43:57All right.
44:03It's not true love or anything, so I don't get that idea.
44:06Might not even be a favor, but it could be.
44:10Three days after I landed here, they put me into a quarantine for almost two weeks.
44:13No shots for dots.
44:18What the hell does that mean?
44:19Point is, maybe I'm still contagious.
44:23You might catch it, and it'll keep you in front half a little longer.
44:27But I thought back half was a good thing, you know, one step closer to home.
44:32It is.
44:33Supposedly.
44:33Give me some.
44:35Seriously.
44:36It's better off your plate.
44:37George, no.
44:39Hey, guys.
44:40Luke, right?
44:41George Isles.
44:42Bet you Isles already told you all about me.
44:44I'm like a god to it.
44:46Oh, you're such a loser.
44:47I'll grab you something.
44:47I'm Iris.
44:49Uh, glad to meet you both.
44:51How do you like it here so far?
44:53Great time or the greatest time?
44:56Yo, I don't even know what here is.
44:59Showing the club on that.
45:01Reminds me.
45:02You're TK, right?
45:03Neg or pause?
45:05Uh, I don't.
45:06A positive means that we can do it when we want.
45:09At least most of the time.
45:10Oh, then I'm neg, then.
45:12Sure.
45:13Yeah, I can't even wiggle my ears.
45:15Yes, TK neg.
45:16Wait till I tell Nikki.
45:17They've been betting on what the new kids will be.
45:19George always takes TK neg.
45:21Because it's the most common pedestrian, if you will.
45:24No offense, Luke.
45:24But TK paws, that's...
45:27That's rarefied here.
45:28Oh, my God.
45:29Oh, my God.
45:38Oh, my God.
45:40Whoa.
45:40Whoa.
45:41Come on.
45:42Go on.
45:43Whoa.
45:43George, knock it off.
46:04Clean it up.
46:07Holy shit.
46:08Sadly, that just about takes us to the limit of my ability.
46:11It doesn't exactly make me an X-Man.
46:14The sad truth is TK's not good for much.
46:17No.
46:17Hendrix says the most an Institute kid's ever lifted was, like, eight pounds.
46:22I wish it were possible to develop a really powerful TK.
46:26We could float ourselves the fuck out of here.
46:28Yeah.
46:30Iris has chosen to adopt Nikki's attitude about all this.
46:33She didn't choose anything.
46:35She's just open to the truth.
46:37Speak of the devil.
46:39Well, Georgie here, on the other hand, he's our Agent Mulder.
46:42He wants to leave.
46:46Believe what?
46:47Oh, that everything's gonna be all right!
46:49Nikki, do you remember what we just talked about?
46:52Right, right.
46:52Just got a little carried away greeting the new arrival.
46:55Making him feel at home.
46:57What happened to your hand?
46:58I fell.
47:08Luke, meet Nikki.
47:13Luke, Alice.
47:15Yeah, I know.
47:16They always tell us about the new kids, offer rewards.
47:19We'll show you the ropes.
47:22Not for me, though.
47:23Nikki Willem won't trade us home for beads and blankets.
47:26Speaking of, who's got tokes?
47:30You know, if you weren't such a dick, you could earn some.
47:33Tell George's.
47:34Instead of always mooching.
47:36Come on, cooperate me.
47:37Never.
47:38Rebel without a mustache.
47:41Yeah, you know, it's actually kind of gross to boycott something by having your friends buy it for you.
47:46I'm not boycotting, just not cooperating.
47:50Come on, who's holding?
47:51I have two for Maureen for not crying this morning after shots for dance.
47:59Come on.
48:00I know you've got something.
48:03Whatever.
48:05Kiss ass.
48:08Come on, Alice, let's get you something.
48:10Fun sticks.
48:11You play chess, Alice?
48:20These three suck.
48:21Diana Gibson could at least give me a half-assed game, but she went to back halves three days ago.
48:27Yeah?
48:28Yeah, I play, but I've got to tell you about it.
48:31Luck in the mood.
48:32Come on.
48:33It'll be like that.
48:37Oh.
48:38Why, thank you.
48:40All yours.
48:40You know, I thought those were real cigarettes for a second.
48:56Yeah, but I thought this place couldn't get any weirder.
49:01It can always get weirder.
49:04Jesus.
49:05Is this Pleasure Island?
49:08From Pinocchio, right?
49:09Good one.
49:11So they get you.
49:12Off you all the grown-up shit we've been denied for so long.
49:16Smokes, booze.
49:17Cracker jacks.
49:18Ho-hos.
49:20What?
49:21What?
49:22Mom smelled hippie and only gave us the Arab chips.
49:24Well, there's booze?
49:26Yeah, you know, wine coolers mostly, you know, kid stuff.
49:29There's even a sign that says please drink responsibly.
49:31How old are the kids here?
49:35Bobby Washington was almost 19.
49:38Oldest we know of.
49:39He went to back half a week ago.
49:42Youngest?
49:44Ten.
49:45I think.
49:45Look, do yourself a favor and don't let Nikki pull you into this bullshit, okay?
50:01You see the dots, say so.
50:02If you don't, say that.
50:06They know when we lie.
50:07What's wrong?
50:22What if I had a story that was bigger than you can imagine?
50:27You'd be surprised what I can imagine.
50:29I'm serious.
50:30If you got a story like that, a story that could change everything, what would you do?
50:40I think you have an inflated sense of my career to this point.
50:45Truth is, I'm still just a stringer for a local daily.
50:50Circulation under 10,000.
50:51Negligable online presence.
50:52Well, who then?
50:54Might you know people?
50:58I guess I might.
51:00What if I've spent my whole life on the wrong path?
51:11What if this is my one shot at redemption and even that's not enough?
51:16I just...
51:18Do you think there's a hell?
51:25I know there is.
51:30You're right.
51:42She was unreliable.
51:43Was.
51:45It's taken care of.
51:46I need a cleaning crew.
51:47Do you have my location?
51:52I have you.
51:52Sit tight.
51:53Thanks.
52:17Thanks.
52:17Thanks.
53:09I'd rather keep the playground open at night but not bother to light it.
53:36Uh, anybody flying over, knowing them wondering what's going on all night, you know, middle
53:43of the deep Maine wilderness.
53:46At least there's a moon tonight.
53:49Enough for chess, anyway.
53:52Yeah, I'm still not in the mood.
53:54Come on.
53:55What else have we got to do?
53:59I saw a werewolf with a Chinese menu in his hand.
54:06Walkin' through the streets of Soho in the rain.
54:13He was lookin' for the place called Lee Ho Phooks.
54:20Gonna get a big dish of beef chow mein.
54:22Ah-hoo!
54:23Ah-hoo!
54:24Ah-hoo!
54:25Ah-hoo!
54:26Ah-hoo!
54:27Ah-hoo!
54:28Ah-hoo!
54:29Ah-hoo!
54:30Ah-hoo!
54:32You hear him howlin' around your kitchen door.
54:33It's called Lee Ho Fooks, gonna get a big dish of beef chow on me, ah-hoo, where it was in London, ah-hoo, ah-hoo, where it was in London, ah-hoo, you hear him howling around your kitchen door.
55:03You'd better not let him in, little old lady got mutilated late last night, where it was in London again, ah-hoo, where it was in London, ah-hoo, where it was in London, ah-hoo, where it was in London, ah-hoo,
55:33a fool, a fool.
55:45Is it a checkmate?
55:48What was that, five moves?
55:50Six.
55:50And it's, uh, smothered, mate.
55:53It only works if your opponent waits too long
55:56to move the pieces next to their king.
55:59Eh, next time you will.
56:00Plus, I was playing hurt.
56:02Right, from your fall?
56:06How smart are you?
56:10I don't know.
56:12Why?
56:13I need to decide, are you the kid
56:14that I've been waiting for?
56:16Smart enough to know we can't stay in this place.
56:20Are you like the others?
56:22Can't handle the truth,
56:23so they talk themselves into a fairy tale.
56:25Now we get our memories wiped,
56:27go on with our lives like all this never happened.
56:30Even Kalisha's still trying to believe in it.
56:34Everyone but you.
56:37Grow up in group homes and foster care.
56:42You learn not to believe in stories.
56:44You also learn
56:46that nobody's coming to the rescue.
56:49I mean, if, if anybody knew about this place,
56:56it would already be shut down.
57:01Yeah, we want out.
57:02We get ourselves out.
57:06So, smart kid,
57:07how do we get the fuck out of here?
57:09You know, how do I get married?
57:12I still don't start to討人生.
57:12No!
57:13I don't know what you mean to tell them,
57:15I might be a clown,
57:17but he wants a Count that.
57:19I know.
57:21One day you came to cool and talk to your Gordon.
57:22Made you up.
57:26Everybody,
57:28don't touch me I'm old.
57:31Love you,
57:32I'm old.
