00:00You
00:43Hey, Neil.
00:44Hey, what's up, bro?
00:46Hey, guys.
00:47Sorry we're late, man.
00:49Everything OK?
00:50Yeah, everything except for the line at the Java hut.
00:52Oh, that's my fault.
00:53I don't get a double latte before noon.
00:55I'm toast the rest of the day.
00:56Never been a problem for me.
00:57Yeah, not with your new mutancy.
00:59Hey, how much sleep do you need, anyway?
01:00About half an hour, mostly.
01:02I'd say 50 bucks a week on coffee alone
01:04if I had your mutant powers.
01:05Only problem is finding stuff to do to fill the time.
01:08Sure does help driving cross-country.
01:11Yeah, but that makes you the perfect hurry
01:12for the new mutant underground.
01:14Still means I get to watch a lot of other people snooze
01:16while I'm wide awake.
01:18The cytofilter Adam requested from Doc Hollis is over there.
01:21And this goes back with you, too, Dr. Hollis.
01:24It's Adam's new prototype for genetic sequencer.
01:26If Dr. Hollis can replicate the technology,
01:28then we can stick them in safe houses across the country.
01:31Help restore the DNA of ailing new mutants.
01:33Not to worry.
01:34You can tell Adam he'll ride up front with me.
01:36Grant, you want to give me a hand over here?
01:39Adam's gear is on the bottom.
01:40Yeah, I'll be right there.
01:42Yeah.
01:51What the hell?
01:53Oh.
01:53Hey guys, where did it go?
02:17Ah, forget it.
02:19I thought I heard someone in here before you guys came in.
02:22Yeah, well, whoever or whatever it is is long gone.
02:26Who's going to tell Adam?
02:30He is.
02:52He is.
02:54He is.
02:57He is.
02:59He is.
03:13He is.
03:16He is.
03:17He is.
03:18He is.
03:20He is.
03:20He is.
03:37He is.
03:40He is.
03:44He is.
03:46He is.
03:47He is.
03:50He is.
03:55He is.
04:08He is.
04:11He is.
04:12He is.
04:14He is.
04:31He is.
04:40He is.
04:46He is.
04:51He is.
04:54He is.
05:01He is.
05:03He is.
05:06He is.
05:13He is.
05:19He is.
05:22He is.
05:24He is.
05:26He is.
05:31He is.
05:33He is.
05:43He is.
05:48He is.
05:59He is.
06:02He is.
06:04Is it just me or is Adam acting a little weird about all this?
06:07What do you mean?
06:08I don't know.
06:10Wouldn't you expect him to be really pissed off that the sequencer was stolen?
06:16Yeah, but he wasn't really angry, was he?
06:20Well, like he was excited about the thought of an invisible thief.
06:26You know, he didn't really come right out and say it, but I think he kind of knows he did
06:29this.
06:31A stealth mutant who's got some history with him.
06:38What have you got?
06:41Blood.
06:46Not much.
06:48I have to run a DNA test.
06:55All right, so there's no doubt about it. This blood sample is definitely a new mutant, and thanks to you,
07:01now we know it's a woman.
07:03But beyond that, I am clueless. No idea who it could be.
07:07Why? I mean, I figured you'd be able to get a precise DNA signature and then match it against the
07:12database.
07:13Yeah, ordinarily, yeah, but this DNA is so deteriorated I can barely identify it as human.
07:17Well, I guess now we know why our thief was so desperate to get her hands on the sequencer.
07:21Yeah, exactly. However, using the sequencer on DNA this deteriorated, it's like using a band-aid and a broken neck.
07:32Adam?
07:34Yeah?
07:35We got a hit.
07:38You got a location?
07:40And a new record for the sanctuary at Ash.
07:44Yeah, it's a house at, uh, 2459 6th Street, just off Fairwood.
07:54Adam, we should have gone with you.
07:55Not this time. There's something I have to do alone.
07:58You sure?
08:00You guys stay put. I got it covered.
08:12You?
08:37Tenya.
08:46It was the wind that hit me in.
08:48Oh, yeah, twice.
08:51And I blew the leaves that revealed your arm and carried your fragrance to me.
08:58You always knew how to touch me, Adam.
09:10So why'd you steal this?
09:11I heard it could help me.
09:13All right, come with me.
09:16Gotta go.
09:18No, no, wait.
09:19Meet me tonight.
09:20You know exactly where.
09:23Go get her.
09:36Go get her.
09:39Go get her.
10:01How did it go?
10:02It didn't.
10:03Hey, did you find the sequencer?
10:04No.
10:05Hey, I've been trying to read you.
10:06Turned off my comlink.
10:07Is everything okay?
10:08Yeah, my ass kicked.
10:19I'm going to walk.
10:20Yeah, I'll help you with that.
10:28What are you looking at?
10:32It's the DNA from that blood sample.
10:36The chromosomes look splintered.
10:39Yeah.
10:44This woman that stole the sequencer, she wasn't just a child at Genomex.
10:50She meant a lot to you, huh?
10:55Are you scanning me?
10:58There's no need.
10:59You're an open book.
11:04Yeah.
11:06Her name was Daniel Hardman.
11:09Met her, you know, 16 years ago at Genomex.
11:13She was still struggling with her gift.
11:18I fell in love with her.
11:21So what happened?
11:24I think she knew her lifespan was going to be limited.
11:27I guess she just didn't want to get tied down.
11:30You guess?
11:32You never talked to her about it?
11:33No.
11:34I never had the chance.
11:36She just disappeared.
11:47I thought I made myself clear.
11:49The devices of secondary interest to me.
11:52You want the stealth mutant, right?
11:54This is phase one.
11:56And when can I expect phase two?
12:00She slipped by us, but we'll get her.
12:02A woman?
12:03Yeah.
12:04Named Danielle Hartman.
12:11You failed to detect her presence, even equipped with infrared goggles?
12:17We didn't have goggles that time.
12:21I think it's time to reassign this case to a more experienced squad leader.
12:25You need somebody as connected as me on your team.
12:28It appears to me your connections only get you so far.
12:30After that, competence or lack of it comes into play.
12:41You're aware of the consequences if you don't.
12:44You're aware of the consequences if you don't.
12:44You're aware of the consequences if you don't.
12:45I hear it all out on the street.
12:47Just don't harm her in any way.
12:51Am I clear, Mr. Berkeley?
12:54Isabel.
12:57Am I clear?
12:58Am I clear?
13:04Am I clear?
13:37Hey.
13:38Hey.
13:42I knew you'd remember.
13:43I wasn't sure you'd show up.
13:45I wasn't all that sure myself.
13:50So have I changed as much as this place is?
13:55You haven't changed a bit.
13:57That's my line.
13:59Then we'd both be lying.
14:05Cheers.
14:07Cheers.
14:12You're still very beautiful.
14:16So it's happening.
14:21Exactly as you predicted.
14:23So why happened you come to see me?
14:27The way I loved.
14:29I thought you'd hate me.
14:32And I did.
14:34For a while.
14:38Well, so why'd you just leave like that?
14:40After what Mason told me, I didn't have much choice.
14:45What'd he tell you?
14:48That Genomex was everything to you.
14:51If I stayed, I'd spend my life as your lab experiment.
14:56And you believed him?
14:58You didn't see that that was his jealousy talking?
15:01I trusted Mason.
15:03And so did you.
15:07Once upon a time.
15:12I knew you'd never accept the inevitable.
15:16I wanted to enjoy the time I had.
15:19Not pine away for some miracle cure that wasn't going to happen.
15:26Yeah.
15:28So you made a decision for both of us.
15:36Daniel?
15:46I'm beginning to lose control.
15:55You know, I'm not comfortable with this.
15:57What?
15:58I mean, if Adam finds out, we'll just, you know, tell him that we were looking for evidence.
16:05Yeah, well, let's hope Adam doesn't find out.
16:11Okay.
16:11Okay.
16:17This is breaking and entering, you know.
16:19It's all for good cause.
16:21Snooping into Adam's private life?
16:23Look, he hasn't seen or heard from this woman in 16 years.
16:26We don't know what she's after.
16:27Oh, right, right.
16:29So we're doing this for his protection?
16:32Yes.
16:35Okay.
16:39What's that?
16:42Catherine.
16:43Having dinner with an old friend back before you know it.
16:46Who do you think Catherine is?
16:48I think we're about to find out.
16:54Mom?
17:22Who the hell are you?
17:27We're friends of your mother.
17:29Yeah.
17:33Cut the crap.
17:34We just moved here.
17:35My mom doesn't have any friends.
17:38We're new mutants like you and your mother.
17:42Has your mom ever talked about a guy named Adam?
17:45You know Adam?
17:48I think the GSA's back.
17:50You better get out of here.
17:51I can go still.
17:52He's not going to help you.
18:03I can go still.
18:28You're going to jump?
18:29Yeah, so are you.
18:44I want you to come back to the sanctuary with me.
18:46I want to run some new tests.
18:48Adam, don't play with me.
18:50It's too late for that.
18:53What about ethanol?
18:55Ethanol?
18:56No.
18:57It does more damage than good.
18:58Mason thought it had a lot of promise.
19:00Well, Mason doesn't know what he's talking about.
19:01Ethanol has never been successfully administered.
19:04But it's proven to halt DNA mutation.
19:06Yeah, it's also been proven to have serious side effects.
19:08Well, fine.
19:09But the right dosage on the right subject.
19:12Danielle, it's too risky.
19:14I'm willing to take the risk.
19:16All right, look, there's got to be another way.
19:17I don't have time to find another way.
19:20I've got to do this for Catherine.
19:24Catherine?
19:26My daughter.
19:31How old is she?
19:32She just turned 15.
19:35I pass my mutancy on to her.
19:39I don't want her to go through this.
19:45Wait.
19:47Danielle, don't.
19:49I can't stop it.
19:51I don't.
19:54Take me back to sanctuary.
20:02You're using the ethanol.
20:03Yeah.
20:04Just have the recommended dosage.
20:06Maybe it'll buy us a little time.
20:08See, the real problems with ethanol
20:10are the wild card side effects it has on DNA.
20:13So we need to monitor this thing very closely.
20:15Otherwise, we're not going to know the impact
20:17that the drug has on her strand
20:19until it's almost too late to do anything about it.
20:30All right, good.
20:51It seems to be working.
20:58Like I said, we need to monitor her system really closely.
21:04This really sucks.
21:14What's this place supposed to be?
21:19Well, we call it sanctuary.
21:21You ever hear of Mutant X?
21:26Come on.
21:28You two?
21:29An atom?
21:32Well, you're looking at the Mutant X secret headquarters.
21:38Now that I'm here, three-fifths of the Mutant X team.
21:41Brennan, this is Catherine, Danielle's daughter.
21:44Hi.
21:45Where's my mother?
21:48Um...
21:51What happened?
21:54She's here, but...
21:54I want to see her.
21:55Now.
21:57Well, Adam thinks it's better
21:58that she doesn't have any visitors right now.
22:01Is she getting worse?
22:03It's okay.
22:04Adam's treating her now.
22:11Catherine.
22:14I've been here before.
22:17Hey.
22:18Hey.
22:22No, no.
22:23Lie back.
22:24You need to rest.
22:26So you tried the ethanol?
22:28Just have a dose.
22:30Welcome back.
22:33You okay?
22:34I'll be fine.
22:36How did you get here?
22:40We brought her in.
22:43Thanks.
22:45These guys are Mutant X.
22:48There's someone I want you to meet.
22:53You're Adam?
22:55Hello, Catherine.
22:58My mom's told me all about you.
23:04Come on, man.
23:04We staked out her place in case she comes back.
23:06Clock's ticking, Mr. Berkeley.
23:08Yeah, yeah.
23:09There's a new development.
23:10She's got a daughter.
23:14Does the daughter have stealth abilities?
23:15It's possible.
23:16We didn't see her.
23:19We did find this in a backpack with some textbooks.
23:24She's 15, man.
23:26Danielle is nearing the end of her short but unhappy life.
23:32But her daughter, this girl could be the key to the kingdom.
23:36Make her your priority.
23:38Okay.
23:55Adam's doing everything he can to help your mom.
23:59There's nothing he can do.
24:02My mother knows she's dying and she's trying to help me.
24:06Do you have any other family?
24:10Or Ed?
24:13What about your father?
24:16Not in the picture.
24:18Never was.
24:21Did your mom ever tell you anything about him?
24:25All she ever said was that he was smart.
24:30And for a little while, they really loved each other.
24:48Hey, take it easy.
24:51The ethanol's working.
24:53I can feel it.
24:54No, no, no.
24:54What you're feeling are the euphoric side effects.
24:57I'm healing.
24:57I know it.
24:59I haven't felt this good in months.
25:00No, here, come on.
25:01I want you to sit down.
25:02Shoot me on your feet.
25:03Why not?
25:04You've done it.
25:05You're as brilliant as ever.
25:08No, listen.
25:09Listen, thanks.
25:10But hey, there's something you've got to know.
25:13The dose that I gave you has bought you some time, but your blood work shows that's all that it's
25:18done.
25:18I know I can handle the full dosage.
25:21Tell everyone more tests.
25:23There's no way to tell how much your system can take.
25:25I know how I feel.
25:27Well, I wish it was that simple, but it's not.
25:29I mean, look, it's already affecting your judgment.
25:32If you don't give it to me, I know someone who will.
25:37No, I'll do that.
25:38Eckhart cannot be trusted.
25:41Okay?
25:41What about Catherine?
25:43If something goes wrong, what about her?
25:46All right, we'll do it your way.
25:51Adam.
25:52Yeah?
25:53Sequencer's been activated again.
25:55You must be testing it.
25:56I'll be right there.
25:59Go do what you have to.
26:01I'm fine.
26:02All right.
26:04I want you to lie down and get some rest.
26:07Yeah.
26:07Okay.
26:16So it's still operating.
26:18Yeah, but if they're testing it, why is it moving?
26:22That's a good question.
26:23I don't have the faintest idea.
26:24Oh, that's refreshing.
26:26At least it reminds us that you're still human.
26:28So why don't you guys take off for a while, all right?
26:30I'll have Shalimar do the tracking from here.
26:32But guys, hey, don't worry.
26:34You're not going to miss a thing.
26:36Sure, she'll give you regular updates on what's going on between Danielle and I.
26:52Danielle?
27:16Lovely to hear your voice.
27:18It's been too long.
27:19Hello, Mason.
27:21To what do I owe the pleasure?
27:22When I left GenomeX, Adam was still working on my problem.
27:27There's something about your premature mortality, wasn't it?
27:29Yes.
27:31He never solved it.
27:33Now you're feeding the effects of his failure.
27:37And I was hoping you could help me.
27:41Well, why don't you and your daughter come in and we'll see what we can do to help you out.
27:45How do you know about my daughter?
27:48Simple background check.
27:50When can we expect you?
27:53Why don't we get together for dinner and talk this over?
27:58Lovely idea.
28:00I remember you were always fond of Gaetano's, wasn't it?
28:03Let's say eight o'clock.
28:27Hey.
28:29We'll find her.
28:31Catherine, I promise.
28:34Whenever my mother's done, she did it for me.
28:39Though I guess that makes this my fault as much as hers.
28:43It's not true.
28:45Anyone's responsible for what's happened to her.
28:47It's me.
28:49You?
28:51Going back to when she first came to me for treatment.
28:55You mean if you hadn't gotten together back then, I wouldn't be here?
29:03No.
29:06No.
29:07The work I did at Genomex saved her life.
29:09I also gave her these stealth abilities, right?
29:14Right.
29:16Now it's these stealth abilities that are causing her the pain.
29:22Look.
29:23If you're as smart as she says you are, why can't you help her?
29:29Well, there's a chance that I can.
29:31I'm going to need your help.
29:33I'll do anything.
29:35Okay, good.
29:36Because it hit me that if I recombine your DNA with hers, there's a chance that I can reverse
29:42her breakdown and maybe prevent you from having the same fate.
29:46And how do we do that?
29:48Well, by using the genetic sequencer that she stole from the safe house.
29:52But those guys that broke in took it.
29:55I don't know, but I sent Emma back to try to find it.
30:02Emma, the sequencer's come to a stop.
30:06It's at the Hotel Infantino on Carmine Street.
30:10What about Danielle?
30:12Well, she just pulled into the parking lot at Gaetano's and the guys are already on the
30:16way.
30:17Got it.
30:18Wish me luck.
30:20Bye.
30:20Bye.
30:22Bye.
30:22Bye.
30:22Bye.
30:22Bye.
30:23Bye.
30:30Bye.
30:32Is this a city again?
30:36Only by you, gorgeous.
30:40You and you alone.
30:45Can I buy you a drink?
30:47Amaretto sour.
30:49Okay.
30:51Amaretto sour, please.
30:55You're welcome.
30:58I sent the kitchen staff home and brought my own personal chef in for the evening.
31:04My dear, I hate to say this, but on closer examination, you don't look well at all.
31:10We always knew this stealth thing would eventually catch up with me.
31:16I'm here to help, Daniel.
31:19All of Genomex is at your disposal.
31:35You, uh, catching up on some work?
31:39No.
31:43No.
31:44It's just a little thing I'm playing with.
31:47Can I take a look at it?
31:54Be careful with it. It's one of a kind.
31:56I'll bet it is.
32:07You really shouldn't drink in public.
32:14Go!
32:15Sit down!
32:23I moved upstate and got a job with a shipping company.
32:27Kept my new mutancy a secret until I couldn't control it anymore.
32:33And you came looking for help?
32:35I still had a few contacts and knee on the ground.
32:38That's how I found out about the genetic sequencer.
32:43I figured if I could get my hands on it.
32:45To stop that measure at best.
32:47But it might keep me around a little bit longer for Catherine.
32:53You're her only family.
32:55Well, then by all means, we'll bring her to Genomex, too.
32:59Right now, I need to take care of me, Mason.
33:03We'll take care of you, Daniel.
33:05But it's important that you have the emotional support.
33:08Just me.
33:13You know, I'm torn, Daniel, between the feelings we once shared
33:17and the exigencies of the work that has been thrust upon me.
33:22Unfortunately, today's realities preclude yesterday's romances.
33:32Adam was right.
33:48Whatever you do, don't let go of her.
33:59Sorry, I'm Lamp Strecker.
34:01About time you got here.
34:03What about the daughter?
34:04The mother goes, the daughter follows.
34:07Okay.
34:12Gently, Mr. Berkeley.
34:14We need her in the best of condition to serve as bait.
34:20Wow, hand delivery.

34:32She's come with me.
35:01I'll take her from here.

38:11We're ready
38:12You're ready
38:12We're readyin
38:19Eggs, bacon, cheese and cream.
38:24Satan's four major food groups.
38:38I don't know what's going to kill me first.
38:40The nitrates in the bacon, the fat and cheese and cream,
38:44or the cholesterol in the eggs.
38:47But we only live once, don't we?
38:53You haven't even touched your dinner, Mr. Berkeley.
38:56I'm actually not that hungry.
39:01One thing you should know about me.
39:03I don't like to eat alone.
39:23I don't know.
39:27Yeah.
39:56My compliments to the chef.
40:05Well, meal's all set to go whenever you guys are.
40:07Take you to your new home on the coast.
40:09And finally delivered the sequencer to Dr. Hollis.
40:11Uh-huh.
40:13Mom?
40:14I'll be right there.
40:17Thanks so much for everything.
40:21You're great.
40:22Hope to see you soon.
40:24Yeah.
40:26Hey, let me get that for you.
40:32How long is it going to take us to get out there?
40:35A couple days.
40:36You ever get a chance to visit the coast?
40:40No.
40:42Well, no, she's great.
40:44You don't have to tell me that.
40:47Done a wonderful job raising her.
40:49Hasn't always been easy.
40:52You know I have to ask you, right?
40:58She's not your daughter.
41:04I can see how disappointed you are.
41:07I'm sorry for that.
41:12I was wondering where she got those blue eyes anyway.
41:23You have to go.
41:25Yeah.
41:27I've got a daughter to finish raising.
41:30But you know where I am.
41:34That I do.
41:40I'll see you.
41:43Soon.
42:08I'll see you.
42:09Bye.
42:10Bye.
42:13Bye.
42:18Bye.
42:21Bye.
42:23Bye.
