00:17So, uh, what do you think this islander is going to do with me?
00:21He's worried he's going to get rid of you the second he finds out all you can do is defoliate.
00:25See? Right there. You've never respected my botanical thing. You should...
00:33I'm right.
00:46Come on, Skeet. What was it you were going to tell me?
00:50Shut up.
01:02Fireworks, stop!
01:08I'm so sick of this take-out!
01:20I hate it when you do that to me.
01:29Look at this mess.
01:33You know, when this is finished, that's it. I'm on my own.
01:41Hey! What's going on? Who are you guys?
01:51Ow!
01:52Ow! Get off! Get off!
02:23Come with me. I was waiting on the roof.
02:27Come on! I'm telling you, all you do is kill plants. Not even big plants.
02:32You and me are friends.
02:34No!
02:35No!
02:44No!
02:48No!
02:50No!
02:52No!
02:54No!
02:55No!
02:55No!
03:55No, I'm just very glad that you decided to contact us.
03:59I can't remember the last time I saw you.
04:02Oh, I know.
04:03It was that time that you, me, and Dad went to dinner.
04:07Thirteen years ago.
04:08Yeah, and right after that, my whole life changed.
04:12Thanks to you.
04:23Oh, this is it.
04:26Welcome.
04:29I was hoping I'd get to see where you guys worked.
04:32It's just policy, Charlotte.
04:34This is Jesse.
04:35Hello.
04:36So it's not because you thought I was like my father.
04:38Your father and I worked together a long time, and I'm very sorry about what happened to him.
04:42Yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:43That's all right.
04:44It's all just history.
04:47I'm more interested in now.
04:50I contacted you because I want to join up with you guys.
04:54Well, I'm sorry.
04:55That's just not possible.
04:57I could really help you.
04:58Well, that's not the issue.
04:59I know you're very gifted.
05:00You have the rare nucleotide sequencing on Strand 17 of your...
05:03I change people, turn bad people good.
05:07Yeah, I know.
05:08How do you know?
05:09Well, we have a file on all the children of Genomex.
05:11So you know how valuable I'd be.
05:13Tell him.
05:16Adam?
05:17Come on, Adam.
05:19Don't you think you owe this to me?
05:26Hey, Brennan, how well does Adam know Charlotte?
05:29Well, Salomar said that Adam worked with her father at the biochemistry department at Stanford.
05:33That's all I know.
05:44I think there's a little more to it than that.
05:47What do you got?
05:48Her father was Anthony Cook.
05:50The guy that was convicted for selling biological weapons?
05:52Yes, and it was Adam that turned him in.
05:54Well, Charlotte can't be too fond of Adam.
05:57Well, it gets worse.
05:58Cook committed suicide right before the trial.
06:01That's rough.
06:03What's her new mutancy?
06:04She can manipulate moral polarity.
06:07Bad to good or good to bad?
06:09My guess is she could go either way.
06:24Defoliation.
06:29It's no big deal in the city, of course, but...
06:31Tell me about Charlotte Cook.
06:35We hung around in high school.
06:38She's pretty hot, but I was the only one...
06:40Just tell him about the girl.
06:45She was always kind of weird.
06:47Used to bother her that no one would hang around with her.
06:49Especially when that stuff about her father came out.
06:51That was...
06:52Shocking.
06:52Why did she contact Mutant X?
06:56She hates this Adam guy.
06:58She...
06:58Charlotte figures that if Adam lets her join Mutant X, she can ruin his life.
07:03Like he did hers.
07:06What is it exactly that Miss Cook does?
07:11Well, what's in it for me if I tell you?
07:19I can't wait.
07:29She...
07:29She...
07:30She...
07:30She can change people.
07:32She makes them...
07:33She can make them bad.
07:34It only lasts a minute on new mutants, but on...
07:37You know, real people.
07:38It can last forever.
07:40A new mutant with the ability to adjust the moral compass.
07:50Show the young man his room.
08:02Okay.
08:03We're ready to go.
08:04Good.
08:06All right, Charlotte.
08:09Here's a telephone number where you can reach me.
08:12Now, your call will be forwarded to me from one of the safe houses.
08:16I didn't contact you so you could stick me in the underground.
08:21Charlotte, did GSA know about you?
08:24We have no choice.
08:26We're just trying to keep you safe, Charlotte.
08:28I contacted you because I want to join Mutant X.
08:32All right, looky, Charlotte, I'm very sorry.
08:35But you can't just join Mutant X.
08:37Fine.
08:41That's the way you want it.
08:43And that's the way it's got to be.
08:57Adam, where does it say that you get to make the decisions for everybody?
09:02What?
09:04Jesse, are you okay?
09:05Was I talking to you?
09:06Hey, what...
09:07Hey, don't use that tone on me, Adam.
09:09I've had it.
09:12And I've had it with your attitude, too, Jesse.
09:16Hey, hey, wait.
09:27Wait.
09:38Hey, stop it, you two.
09:47Shalimar.
09:48Oh.
09:49Hey.
09:50Are you all right?
09:51Yeah.
09:52Must have been Charlotte.
09:53Oh, sorry.
09:54Charlotte.
09:55Forget it, I couldn't help you.
09:56Charlotte!
10:00She's gone.
10:09Our sources tell us Charlotte Cook is back on the streets.
10:12Kelsa Breeze, her plan to bring down Adam has failed.
10:15I think we could make use of Miss Cook's talents and achieve our own goals.
10:18From what I understood from her little friend, Mr. Varsberg, she's a trifle unstable.
10:22She'd need proper training and guidance.
10:25Mr. Varsberg, are you suggesting you'd like to become her mentor, Mr. Lynch?
10:30I am.
10:32She's your responsibility.
10:33If she fails, you fail.
10:36I want to extend an immediate invitation to Miss Cook.
10:39We're trying to locate her now.
10:41Might I offer a piece of my own advice?
10:45Miss Cook is a wounded animal.
10:47I must try to convince her that we are her collaborators, not her captors.
10:51In her mind, Adam is responsible for her father's death.
10:55She wants revenge.
10:57We must harness this energy.
10:58It's priceless.
11:06Oh, good, there's no residual damage.
11:10But I have to do a more complete toxic scan.
11:15I was completely out of control.
11:19Could have killed him.
11:20Or he could have killed you.
11:23Not likely.
11:24I'm lucky for both of you for the toxin wore off when it did.
11:30So what are we going to do if we find her again?
11:33What do you mean?
11:34I mean, what are we going to do with her?
11:36Are you going to put her in some kind of stasis and keep her here?
11:39No.
11:40You can't do that to her.
11:41I'm the one who's responsible for what happened to her.
11:44No, you're not.
11:45It was her father who ruined her life, not you.
11:47Well, that's not the way she sees it.
11:49Exactly.
11:49She's blaming you for this.
11:50But if you hadn't stopped her dad, who knows what would happen?
11:52Shalamar, I have to help her.
11:54There's no one else who can do it.
11:56Okay, are we talking about the same Charlotte?
11:58Because you're thinking about the little girl that you used to know.
12:01I'm thinking about the woman who almost got us killed.
12:05She didn't want to join Mutant X.
12:06She wanted to infiltrate Mutant X.
12:08And turn us all against each other and against you.
12:12All right, so what are you suggesting?
12:14I'm suggesting if you insist on going after her, you watch your back.
12:19Adam?
12:19Yeah, Jesse?
12:21I gotta leave.
12:23Charlotte was seen a half hour ago in the Garment District.
12:25Good.
12:26Check it out.
12:27Right.
12:28Shalamar, are you okay?
12:29Great.
12:31But I want a rematch.
12:33No, you already kicked my ass.
12:34No chance you're getting a second shot.
12:46Well, there's definitely nothing here Charlotte will come back for.
12:49Well, they were very international with their tastes.
12:52Thai, Middle Eastern, Delhi.
12:58Ooh, that's going to limit the search.
13:17What are you seeing?
13:21A rooftop.
13:23Someplace she went to feel safe.
13:26Jesse's up in the double helix.
13:27He can scan from up there.
13:29They're going to need a little more information.
13:31They stopped building it.
13:33What?
13:34She's looking out on something unfinished.
13:36Concrete, steel.
13:38A parking lot.
13:41Happen to catch a street sign?
13:43Let's run in what we've got to Adam, and he can run a data search.
13:52She loves the Kung Pao lunch special.
13:54I don't know what's keeping her.
13:58Maybe she's in the restroom.
13:59We just missed her.
14:00You're wasting my time.
14:01Okay, don't, don't.
14:02I know where she is.
14:04It's like five minutes from here.
14:06You better be right.
14:07Or you'll be calling that stasis pot home sweet home.
14:16Evan's contracting had an investor pull out, shut down construction a year ago.
14:20It's on Ash Street, right near Charlotte's apartment.
14:22I've got it, Adam.
14:24Brendan and Emma are a block away.
14:33Hey, Charlotte.
14:36Who are you?
14:38Friends of Adam's.
14:40Yeah, I'm finished talking to you guys.
14:43Watch out.
14:44You're afraid of me?
14:46And I thought you were the best Adam could find.
14:48You know, the GSA is still looking for you.
14:51Really?
14:52You don't want to go with them, Charlotte.
14:54They're going to use you up, and they're going to throw you away.
14:57That's not what you guys are going to do.
14:59We know what happened with your father.
15:02Did Adam tell you the whole story?
15:05Did Adam tell you how everyone at school treated me like I was the one that did it?
15:10They said they were glad my father was dead, and that I should kill myself, too.
15:16Do you know what it feels like to grow up having everyone hate you for something that you never did?
15:21We're trying to help you, Charlotte.
15:24Adam's, I don't care what Adam wants.
15:26You guys are too late.
15:28All of you are too late.
15:32See?
15:33I told you she'd be here.
15:35Charlotte, come on!
16:04All of you are too late.
16:34They got Charlotte.
16:43They got Charlotte.
17:08Hi.
17:09You know, the minute I got here, I knew this was the place for you.
17:12You expect me to believe that?
17:14Listen, I had no choice.
17:17You're such a weasel.
17:19You'd do anything to save your own skin.
17:22Would you listen to me?
17:23The GSA want to get rid of Adam, just like you.
17:27Really?
17:29Yeah, that's why they want you.
17:30To help them.
17:34They want me?
17:35Are you kidding?
17:37Charlotte, you belong here.
17:39I mean, you can really, really fit in with these people.
17:42Ms. Cook, Mr. Eckhart would like to see you.
17:44I'm a little tied up right now.
17:46We don't often come across any mutants like you.
17:52We think you might have the right stuff for the GSA.
17:55That's just what I was just going to tell you.
17:56We know what Adam did to your father.
17:59He could have handled the situation quietly between colleagues.
18:04But he had to go public.
18:07He had to satisfy his own ego.
18:11We need your help to stop Adam before he ruins more people's lives.
18:22Don't offer too much up front.
18:23I know, I know.
18:25Let him do the talking.
18:26He likes to come up with the ideas himself.
18:28Speak when you're spoken to.
18:30Who the hell does this guy think he is?
18:31He's got something straight right now, Charlotte.
18:33You've got raw talent and that's all you've got.
18:36I convinced Eckhart to give you a chance.
18:39Don't make me look back.
18:41Am I understood?
18:43I won't let you down.
19:07Mr. Lynch here has the utmost confidence in your abilities, Ms. Cook.
19:11I'm afraid I do not.
19:13Sir?
19:14I realize I might have been a bit hasty in agreeing to this.
19:17Please don't underestimate me, Mr. Eckhart.
19:25But I'm willing to be convinced.
19:35Remove your restraints.
19:37Hold on.
19:38Should be a controlled experiment.
20:05How are you feeling, Mr. Lynch?
20:23Did you know he was prone to this kind of behavior before you hired him?
20:29Nicely done, Ms. Cook.
20:35It's quite enough, Mr. Lynch.
20:40Oh, it'll wear off in about five more seconds.
20:45On new mutants.
20:47And on normal.
20:49Excuse me.
20:50Non new mutants.
20:52I have only tested it once before.
20:56And?
20:57Well, it seems to last forever.
21:00Really?
21:07All right, Ms. Cook.
21:08I'm convinced.
21:11What was your plan?
21:15Adam.
21:16Adam, it's Charlotte.
21:17Um, I need your help and I had nowhere else to go.
21:22Charlotte, this is Emma.
21:24Emma, I escaped from Genomex and it was horrible.
21:27Where is she?
21:28That Adam?
21:29Charlotte, where are you?
21:31I'm at my apartment.
21:33All right, you stay right there. I'm on my way.
21:35No one escapes from Genomex. You can't trust her.
21:38Emma.
21:38At least let me come with you.
21:40No.
21:40Too dangerous.
21:41Not gonna have anybody else exposed to that toxin.
21:43How were you supposed to protect yourself against the toxin?
21:45No, she wouldn't do that to me.
21:46She had the opportunity before and she didn't do it.
21:48Just think about it for a minute.
21:49Why would she come running back to us for now?
21:51Well, maybe she's seen what life would be like for her there.
21:53That's what she wants you to think.
21:54All right, look, if it's a trap, I'll deal with it alone.
22:03I'm so sorry about what I did before to your friends.
22:07It's all right. I understand.
22:08No, you don't.
22:10You don't know how much I hated you.
22:12I just, I needed somebody else to blame.
22:16Somebody other than my father.
22:18Your father loved you very much.
22:20Yeah, he was weak. That's all.
22:24Well, if I knew what he was getting himself into...
22:26He would have stopped him.
22:28I'm so sorry for hating you.
22:31Please forgive me.
22:35Oh, my God.
22:37You don't trust me.
22:40You're just like them.
22:42Charlotte, what do you really want?
22:45I want another chance.
22:48Put me in the underground.
22:49I want to go in the underground.
22:52All right, how did you escape from Genomex?
22:54The way I always do.
22:57It used my powers.
22:59I don't want to do that anymore.
23:03I'm asking for help.
23:05All my life, everybody just won't even touch me.
23:10They're afraid of me.
23:11And you are too.
23:14You...
23:15I'm sorry.
23:17I'm so sorry.
23:19I'm sorry for the way things turned out.
23:21I'm sorry that I haven't been there for you.
23:24It's gonna be okay.
23:28Adam.
23:29Hello.
23:35What am I gonna do with you?
23:39Are you all right?
23:40Yeah, I'm fine.
23:42Of course he's all right. He came to help me.
23:47She's gonna be fine.
23:50Thanks for coming by.
23:51Okay.
23:58Very clever of you to play on my guilt like that.
24:02So I'll see you at Genomex?
24:06Sure.
24:07I know. I got things I gotta take care of.
24:09I got it.
24:09I got it.
24:15I got it.
24:17I got it.
24:19I got it.
24:20Charlotte's got it.
24:21Emma.
24:22The two of them headed out.
24:23Charlotte took off.
24:24What about Emma?
24:25Is she okay?
24:26I don't know yet.
24:27The toxin seems to have different effects on psionics.
24:30What do you mean?
24:31Listen, I need you to prepare the lab for a neural resystemization.
24:34It's her only chance.
24:35I'll be right there.
24:42Poor little Emma.
24:45By the time I'm done with you,
24:47you won't know yourself.
24:58Charlotte, I need the files on brain resystemization.
25:02I need to know my options in case the cranial nerves are affected.
25:06What are you doing to her?
25:07I tried to save what's left of her mind.
25:09What are you talking about?
25:10The toxin spreading through her cerebral cortex.
25:13I need to cauterize it before it spreads any further.
25:15Is she gonna be okay?
25:17I'm hoping that this procedure will help prevent further damage.
25:20Until I do the work, I won't know what's already been lost.
25:24And I know that this is hard on us, but we need to put our feelings behind us.
25:27I need you two to go out and find Charlotte.
25:30What good is that gonna do now?
25:31Well, maybe she'll know something about the toxin that we don't know.
25:34And you, I need those files now.
26:00Adam?
26:04I'm fine.
26:05You don't need to do that.
26:15What are you doing?
26:17Don't tell me what I need to do.
26:19She got to you, didn't she?
26:21Charlotte did this to you?
26:22Adam, look at me!
26:24Adam, stop it!
26:38In a little while, nothing much will matter anymore.
26:49I was thinking maybe I shouldn't, darling.
26:53What?
26:54They're making you a GS agent.
26:56You got the look and everything.
26:57Aren't you proud?
26:58I don't know.
27:00It's weird.
27:03Never changed anyone so powerful before.
27:06You took a really, really good guy and you turned him and now he's everyone's worst nightmare.
27:11I don't think he's gonna bounce back from it.
27:18What do you think?
27:21Ow!
27:21Ow!
27:23Get off!
27:25Ow!
27:28What was that?
27:29That was a subdermal governor.
27:32To prevent you from accessing your powers except when I say so.
27:35You don't feel so powerful anymore, do you Charlotte?
27:38Thank you for holding Charlotte's attention, Mr. Vosburgh.
27:44I've changed my mind!
27:45I want to leave now!
27:47Give me my stuff!
27:49Give me my belts!
27:50I want to leave!
27:50I'm sorry, Miss Cook.
27:53But that's just not an option.
28:09Now we've all come full circle.
28:12You've gotten back at Adam for what he did to your father and done us a great service at the
28:16same time.
28:17So how does it feel?
28:21Okay, I guess.
28:24And do I detect a conscience?
28:27Your father exhibited the same tendencies.
28:31Until I convinced him he had no choice but to sell me his research.
28:35My father?
28:37I worked hard to convince him.
28:40The money, in the end, was his Achilles heel.
28:46Welcome to the GSA, Miss Cook.
29:00Where's that feral with my files?
29:04Then again, maybe precision isn't exactly what's called for right now, is it?
29:08My little mind-bending freak of nature.
29:12Adam?
29:16I knew there was something wrong with you.
29:25Excuse me a moment.
29:27Charlotte got to Adam.
29:28I need both of you back here now.
29:30Right away.
29:32Shalimar!
29:34Shalimar!
29:38It's you she got to, Adam, not Emma.
29:40Not likely.
29:55Wrong way.
30:02Hello, Shalimar.
30:06You can't hide from me, Adam.
30:09I'll find you.
30:10You know I will.
30:18Charlotte turned you, Adam.
30:21You've got her toxin inside you.
30:25Look, Adam, what you're feeling right now, it isn't real.
30:36That's a little something to soothe the savage beast in you.
30:40Huh?

31:11Huh?
31:13Huh?
31:13I wouldn't do that if I were you.
31:15You hit the force field with that and it will rebound.
31:18And you my friend will fry.
31:21Huh?
31:22Adam?
31:22Jesse well now you just saw what happened when you tried to face but go ahead mass out if you
31:27want it's kind of pointless
31:28I designed this little force field with all of you in mind
31:35Download new mutant database to disk including all current addresses and aliases Adam
31:42Can't do this
31:46Watch me
31:52Shalimar I told you it's coming here
31:54Come on
31:56We saw you lying here we didn't think it was a trap
31:58No she's right we should have been way ahead of him
32:01I should have known as soon as you brought him in here
32:03It just wasn't right
32:05What about him?
32:07She's still in the lab
32:09He hasn't operated on her yet
32:10We gotta get out of here and take him down
32:12Yeah how are we gonna do that?
32:14He knows all of our weaknesses he's the one who taught us how to control our powers
32:17He's only ever fought us in training exercises never for real
32:20Yeah well we can't just fight him
32:23We have to turn him back
32:24Adam's got the names and addresses of new mutants on a disk
32:27And I'm pretty damn sure that I know where he's going with it
32:30So we just better hope that we get a chance to get out there and stop him
32:34Damn
32:35Damn
32:37Damn
32:42Damn
32:54Damn
32:55Damn
32:56Damn
32:57Damn
32:57Damn
32:58Damn
32:58Damn
33:00Damn
33:01Damn
33:01Damn
33:02Damn
33:03Damn
33:03Damn
33:04No.
33:37Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
34:04Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
34:19Emma, you got out.
34:21Emma, get us out of here.
34:23Adam locked us in.
34:28Sanctuary deactivate force field.
34:31Oh, I can't believe this.
34:34You don't think we tried that already?
34:36Adam reprogrammed it.
34:37You know, I can maybe try to talk you through crack in that, but, uh...
34:40You even recognize that language?
34:42It's Finnish.
34:43Adam doesn't realize I dated an exchange student from Helsinki in high school.
34:55Maybe I'm didn't know.
34:56It's not like I'm going to screw up like that.
34:57You think some part of his fighting what Charlotte did to him?
35:00Well, we better hope that he screws up again or we're all history.
35:11Adam, you're looking well.
35:13Your security people didn't seem very surprised to see me.
35:19Nice to be back.
35:22I have something for you.
35:25This is a complete list of all the children that Gina makes.
35:30But, you know, I was wondering, how would I fit in here?
35:34I mean, I'm a leader, not a follower.
35:37Well, I've always thought of myself as, um, a team player.
35:42Team player.
35:43Yeah, that's good.
35:44No, that's very good.
35:45But, of course, we both know that that's not true.
35:48You'd have me in stasis in, what, 30 seconds?
35:51No.
35:51You know, I think you should try a little stasis yourself.
36:11Well, I've been looking all over for you.
36:14Why don't you send him a flare or something?
36:16Adam.
36:16No, no.
36:17We have no time to talk.
36:18Wait, I thought we were just a general governor.
36:20I know that's not fair, is it?
36:22He lied to me about everything.
36:23I know.
36:24Well, see, all the men in your life have been a constant disappointment, haven't they?
36:27Well, see, I'm here to change all that.
36:28I'm going to deactivate your subdermal governor and make it all up to you.
36:32Can you get me out of here?
36:33Well, that's a very good place to start.
36:38You and I are going to make a great team.
36:41When you sell this list of new mutants to the highest bidder, you're going to work your magic.
36:44We're going to make millions.
36:46You're going to destroy everything you created?
36:48Yeah.
36:49You don't do this, Adam.
36:50What, you don't want to make some cash?
36:52No, Adam, I did this to you.
36:54You're not yourself.
36:56Right.
36:56I'm better.
36:57Now go inside and get what you needed.
36:58I'll wait for you here.
37:00Adam.
37:02Hey!
37:06I guess I underestimated all of you.
37:09You forgot to turn your comm link off, Adam.
37:11Yeah, thanks for making it so easy for us.
37:15Pleasure's all mine.
37:16He's going to sell the database to an international gen-
37:18Keep that to yourself.
37:27Hey!
37:28All right.
37:58I can't go through that.
38:00Yeah, that's why you did it.
38:12What is it exactly that happens to her electricity when you get wet,
38:16and you get soaked with water, Brennan?
38:19Huh?
38:22Sorry to explain the phenomenon to Charlotte over here.
38:25Now she couldn't understand why it makes you so weak.
39:12What do we know about you?
39:14What's your weakest moment?
39:16When you take a breath?
39:34Adam!
39:36Look into her eyes.
39:39You are choking the person that would do anything in the world to protect you,
39:43who loves you more fiercely than anyone else.
39:48I know you can hear me, Adam.
39:51Somewhere inside, I know that you hear me.
39:57Let me help you.
40:18Oh, God, I'm sorry.
40:20Are you all right?
40:21Yeah.
40:22You all right?
40:24Yeah.
40:39I'm sorry about what's happened to you, about your father.
40:46I'm sorry I had to turn him in.
40:50But he's the one you should be angry with.
40:55And he's the one you have to forgive.
41:02Thanks for not hating me.
41:05Of course I don't hate you.
41:10I'm here for you.
41:13Okay?
41:20Is she all right?
41:22She will be.
41:23What about you?
41:26I'm trying not to think about it too much.
41:28Come on, Adam.
41:30That doesn't sound like you at all.
41:32Well, maybe not, but it's true.
41:35I wanted to apologize to all of you for the way I treated you all.
41:40No, forget it.
41:41You weren't yourself.
41:43No, but I was.
41:44Ask Shalimar, ask Jessie.
41:45They experienced it.
41:47Yeah, well, you couldn't control yourself, that's all.
41:49Well, maybe, but it was still me.
41:51I knew your weaknesses and I used them against you.
41:54It was very weird.
41:56It was very dark.
41:58Like you guys saved me and...
42:02I don't know what to say.
42:16You're not sorry.
42:17You're right.
42:17I'm sorry.
42:19You're right.
42:19I'm sorry.
42:22You're right.
42:30I'm sorry.
42:30I'm hungry.
