00:04Previously on motherland they're gonna tell you horrible things about you. I love you. She told you what you needed
00:09to hear
00:10Madam president. You are bound by rule of law to the will of the American people. The Spree have two
00:16trucks full of vines
00:17and we are going to take them out. They have hostages. The mission hasn't changed. Now!
00:23The Spree chose to execute the hostages. He didn't want to die. So now we must rebuild and end the
00:29Spree.
00:30What's said for all? Why are your people under siege? Many governments want what we have.
00:37Teach me your songs to make the world a better place. Do you imagine what the military could achieve with
00:42this power?
00:42Yes. Unfortunately I can't.
01:14What's inside you?
01:26Weeks up
01:27I don't know.
02:09I don't know.
02:29I don't know.
03:01I don't know.
03:31I don't know.
04:07I don't know.
04:27I don't know what those hostages were feeling, knowing that we're going to die.
04:35And then Libba.
04:39And we all have to remember that day for the rest of our lives.
04:44We've got your back, Tal.
04:45I don't think this kind of thing just gets better.
04:48We were used.
04:49Tally, no.
04:51That's exactly what happened.
04:53We were used.
04:55And Libba paid the ultimate price.
05:00Alder should never have pulled you into that.
05:02We did the best we could under the circumstances.
05:05You behaved with honor and bravery from what I've heard.
05:08I'm extremely proud of you.
05:12You will be expected to give Libba's eulogy.
05:15It's a tradition.
05:16Okay.
05:16You're the only other high Atlantic at our level in your company, and it's only proper.
05:20Mom.
05:21I said okay.
05:25Okay.
05:27Excellent.
05:29I'll help you with the speech.
05:47General.
05:48I have new intel on the terrain.
05:50And there's something I'd like to show you.
05:52You first.
05:53Go.
05:54Recon just located 15 refugees in the Altai Mountains.
05:58All with their vocal cords removed.
06:05In the same manner that my family was murdered.
06:07How did the spree find him before we did?
06:09What if it's not the spree?
06:11Who else could it be?
06:12They have yet to claim responsibility for the attacks on my family.
06:15Which is unusual.
06:18I borrowed this from Memorial Hall when I was working on the victims of the bellwether attack.
06:26The Camarilla?
06:28Really?
06:29My mother used to tell me the Camarilla would steal my voice away while I was asleep if I didn't
06:33sing my seeds before bed.
06:42They very much went on my voice in here, too.
06:48But I got away.
06:50They were extremely meticulous.
06:53I wanted to see if the methods were the same.
06:56Aping our ancient or manners is a new thrill.
06:59For the spree, nothing more.
07:00Their methods were identical.
07:02That kind of hatred no longer festers in the world.
07:05I rooted out the last remaining Camarilla over 200 years ago.
07:08Are we that desperate for ideas?
07:10We have a very real enemy in front of us.
07:13We do not need an imaginary one.
07:17How many of the terrain remain?
07:19Based on our intelligence, less than ten.
07:24They are the priority right now.
07:26We need a move.
07:27It's a powder keg over there.
07:28If Wade finds out...
07:29I can handle President Wade.
07:33You are dismissed.
07:48Do you want some more tea?
07:52Tal, hmm?
07:54No, I'm fine.
07:55You're not fine, Tal.
07:57I guess I'm not that fine then.
08:03What we did.
08:05With those people.
08:08That's not why I chose to come here.
08:11I came to do some good.
08:14We have to do something.
08:16Why do we have to do something?
08:18Because we were involved in something deeply unjust.
08:22And Alder's blame.
08:23Yeah, but who do we tell, Talie?
08:25Who do we trust?
08:27Anacostia's too close to Alder.
08:30What about your mom?
08:32She'll eat us alive for not observing chain of command.
08:35Well, maybe this is bigger than chain of command.
08:36This isn't going to go away!
08:42Tal, I hear you.
08:44And I don't disagree.
08:46Okay?
08:47But you don't know my mother.
08:50Please, Abigail.
08:56I can't hold on to any more secrets.
09:04No more secrets.
09:05Okay.
09:20Excuse us.
09:33i have terrible news i'm sorry to say that more of your people have been murdered you may stop
09:40we already know i intend to intervene immediately i plan to appeal to the president that will not
09:46be necessary they will be wiped out soon this is a humanitarian crisis then it will be our end
09:58think about what she's offering this risk is too great what risk could be worse than the
10:02annihilation of you know what would happen if our songs fell into the hands of governments and
10:07armies there will be no more world to fight over what i'm offering is the preservation of your
10:11people atwood price general alder however good you are
10:41watch yourself our commitment to peace is non-negotiable
10:48you're alive because of me not you exactly
11:08ladies i am a very busy woman we have some intelligence that would interest you alder lied about the
11:13hostages tell me more i saw hostages in that second truck yes the spree chose to execute their
11:22hostages i'm sorry you had to see that there are rules of engagement in war but the spree have no
11:28regard for such things now if you don't mind we executed them i told anacosta that they were in
11:35the truck she relayed intel to alder who ordered the strike anyway collateral damage is always a part of war
11:44and make no mistake we are at war with the spree you've been through a lot i would focus your
11:51energies
11:51on finishing strong before graduation the base has been infiltrated
11:56by whom
11:58the spree
12:01sylla
12:01alder has her in custody on base
12:04at fort salem correct
12:06somewhere in the necro facility
12:08they're interrogating her that's how they found out about bay lord auto
12:14ladies you are dismissed

12:46sometimes eating is overrated
12:50i want to talk to you about sylla
12:53let's get her off base now that we got what we needed from her i think she may still be
12:57of use
12:59in what way why are you still on this we can bring her around every day we keep her we
13:04risk her
13:05escape and goddess knows what else she forfeited her rights when she became an agent for the end
13:09what if we can turn her against the spree send her back to them to be our eyes
13:13not with a will like hers
13:16how can you be so sure
13:19centuries
13:21of experience
13:22do you have a problem with this
13:25no
13:27no not in the least
13:28good
13:31she should be in prison
13:34arrange transport
13:35to our facility in san dominique
13:39understood
13:40understood
14:09she should be in prison
14:11to her
14:19is
14:21like
14:21she also
14:23after
14:25she
15:03She died with honor.
15:12I got this.
15:35First, I would like to extend my condolences to the Swythe family.
15:44Service.
15:46Duty, honor, bravery.
15:49These were more than just words to Libba.
15:53She answered the highest calling.
16:03I'm sorry, I can't.
16:17Elizabeth Cain Swythe was the girl I hated most in the world.
16:27And now she's gone.
16:34Hating Swythe is mother's milk to a bellwether.
16:38Some families sail, others ride.
16:41Bellwethers hate Swythe who hate bellwethers.
16:45Going back and back to a time before we were even America.
16:51And for what?
16:54For tradition?
16:56For competition?
16:57For competition?
16:57Well, I fell right in.
17:00Lockstep.
17:01I pulled her hair.
17:03Made her eat a piece of dead pigeon.
17:06I took her men, ate them whole and spit them out at her feet.
17:09I called her name so foul that they could wake the dead.
17:17And now?
17:21This terrible now.
17:24She's gone.
17:27And there's one less witch in the world.
17:32And here we are alive to fight another day.
17:48Leba Swythe.
17:51You were the stone that sharpened my blade.
17:55The storm on my sunny day for those things.
18:01I am grateful.
18:06May the goddess bless you.
18:10May the goddess bless this country that you served so well.

21:08I confess
21:09I am a witch
21:22what's it like
21:24ending thousands of people
21:26did you know that in Germany
21:29in 1761
21:30611 witches were burned alive
21:33that's not the same
21:34these people were dragged from their homes
21:37children too
21:40and even last year
21:41a witch was burned
21:42Alder wants to send you to our prison in the Caribbean
21:46that sounds nice
21:48although I do tend to burn
21:49it's the kind of place no one comes back from
21:59and how come I'm still here
22:03I want to know how someone gets to be you
22:07lots of practice
22:14let me see Rael one more time
22:20why would I do that
22:22I gave you Baylord
22:24or should I say you took it
22:27now give me something
22:28do you have any idea
22:30what I would risk by doing that
22:34if you give me this
22:36I'll tell you all about the horrible things
22:39that made me who I am
22:43please
22:55we know that the Tareem are on the run
22:57if we can intercept them now
22:59we can extract them
23:00quickly and safely
23:01why is everybody so worked up about these people
23:04the work they possess is very special
23:08profoundly rare in fact
23:10unfortunately we can't make a move on the Tareem
23:12without setting off a conflict
23:14between Russia and China
23:15you know better than to ask
23:17the Tareem are of great military value
23:19but there's also a humanitarian imperative
23:23I forbid your intervention in this matter
23:25Madam President I must
23:28enough
23:36you have nerve
23:38lecturing me
23:39about humanitarian consequences
23:42when you have sent
23:43untrained cadets
23:45into a live operation
23:46it was an idea
23:46resulting in the death
23:48of one of your own
23:49who I know
23:49did not complete
23:51basic training
23:52not to mention
23:53the civilian deaths
23:54we destroyed
23:55hundreds of
23:56spree munitions
23:56that were about to be
23:57distributed
23:58around the globe
23:59I stand by my decision
24:01I have to make
24:02tough choices
24:03every day
24:03so do I
24:04General Alder
24:06so do I
24:07and you've made the next one
24:09easy for me
24:11because I've just learned
24:12that you've allowed
24:13your Fort Salem
24:14to be infiltrated
24:15by the spree
24:19we have apprehended
24:21the operator
24:21I know
24:23that's how you found out
24:25about Baylor
24:25auto
24:26but that's not the point
24:28the point is
24:29you've kept me
24:30in the dark
24:31about all of this
24:32not to mention
24:33compromising
24:34national security

27:13about that a bit
27:14I don't want to think
27:15about her at all
27:15I'm just saying
27:16if I had the chance
27:17to say one more
27:18little thing to Charvel
27:20or Libba
27:24I'd say she's going to see her
27:24I'd take it
27:26forever's long
27:31Abigail
27:32General Bellwether wishes to see you in her office
27:35I'm sure she has feedback about the speech
27:46Libba's eulogy was unconventional
27:50but extremely effective and very moving
27:55I spoke from my heart
27:56and told the truth
27:56just like you always told me
27:58well done
28:00thank you
28:01I had a remarkably civil conversation
28:03with Libba's mom
28:04you make quite an impression
28:05on her as well
28:06what's on your mind
28:08since when does a mother
28:09need a reason to see her daughter
28:14big changes are coming
28:16changes that will impact
28:17how the armed forces
28:18are run in this country
28:19and by whom
28:22you're getting promoted
28:24this shift will change everything for me
28:26and by extension
28:27you
28:28tell me
28:29it's too soon to say
28:31but
28:32all eyes will be on this family
28:34in the coming weeks
28:34and I need you not to do
28:35anything
28:36that will reflect poorly
28:38on the bellwether line
28:39and that's different
28:40from any other day
28:41how exactly
28:43pay close attention
28:44to President Wade's address tonight
28:46that's all I can say for now

29:53meaning
29:54do you want to walk in on us
29:55and turn it into a group thing

32:57I know about Ellen.
33:02Have you done that to me before?
33:04No!
33:05Never.
33:07I messed up.
33:10There's no excuse.
33:11I...
33:13I was scared.
33:15Scared of losing your mark?
33:18It started like that.
33:21And you were...
33:24You.
33:25And I fell for you.
33:29I promise.
33:33I promise I'm telling the truth.

33:39Any of it?
33:41All of it.
33:42Raelle.
33:43But you have to believe me.
33:45I have nothing to gain by telling you this.
33:48I...
33:49They're shipping me off to die.
33:55But we all go sometime.
34:01Why did you pick me?
34:03Is it because my mom died?
34:04Well, you thought I'd be a likely convert?
34:06Do I look like I'm calling the shots around here?
34:08They didn't tell me.
34:09You know what?
34:10You know what?
34:10I get it.
34:11I get it.
34:12I was the sickest, weakest gazelle in the herd.
34:15I was easy prey for you.
34:19You have no idea how powerful you are.
34:25I don't feel powerful.
34:28I feel broken.
34:29I feel broken.
34:31Thanks to you.
34:35I'm sorry we ever met so.
34:39I chose you.
34:43I chose you.
34:44I had orders to deliver you.
34:48I chose you.
34:51Instead of them, I chose you.
34:54Please.
34:55Please.
35:04That worked out really great.
35:05Thanks a lot.
35:22Ladies, you almost go.
35:28Is anybody here?
35:29I don't hear a thing.
35:35Well, whatever it is, it's too late now.
35:39Everyone clear.
35:40We go live in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2.
35:56Fellow citizens, the future of a troubled world now rests in our hands.
36:04We face an enemy with no regard for the conventions of war or the rules of what is right and
36:13good.
36:13The time has come to meet this enemy with more decisive force than we've ever employed in a precise systematic
36:23campaign to wipe the spree from the face of the earth for good.
36:29In this work, we are supported by the collective cooperation of many great nations.
36:38There is no middle ground.
36:41There is only one side now and only one leader to carry us through these perilous times.
36:49A woman whose courage, tenacity and purpose have seen us through many a storm.
36:58That leader is and has always been General of the Army, Sarah Alder.
37:08In accordance with the powers vested in me by the Constitution of the United States of America,
37:18I am granting General Alder full authorization to employ military force both at home and at a global level so
37:28she can take immediate relentless action against the spree unhindered and at her own discretion until these agents of the
37:37end have been eliminated.
37:39Our only ambition is to protect the innocent.
37:44Our only agenda to restore peace.
37:49Our only mission to eliminate a threat with decisive finality so that we never have to meet it again.
37:58There is no outcome but victory.
38:02We will prevail.
38:07Bless this great nation and all who defend her.
38:35Bless this great nation and ...
38:43Bless this great nation.
38:48Sliver music.
38:50Hello!
38:54Hello!
39:04clo'rst
39:17I shouldn't have put you through that.
39:23I wasn't even going to go.
39:24I just...
39:34I still love her.
39:36I know.
39:41I'm so stupid.
39:43No, you're not.
39:45No, no, you're just...
39:47You're human.
39:51She loves you.
39:53That part's real.
40:03I think I messed up.
40:09I told Petra that Scylla was being held on base.
40:14Why'd you do that?
40:14We just...
40:15We didn't...
40:15We didn't know who else to talk to.
40:17Tali was just so freaked out after City Drop with the hostages and with Libba,
40:22so we tried to tell Petra what Alder did, and she just...
40:25She didn't care.
40:26She needed something bigger.
40:28So I told her about Scylla.
40:31And Petra told President Wade,
40:35We have to find your unit now.
40:46What?
40:48What?
40:48What is it?
40:51Alder puppeted the President.
40:55Isn't that outlawed by The Hague?
40:57Very.
40:57And with good reason.
40:59I've known Alder since I was a kid.
41:01I've seen her make hundreds of tough calls, but never like this.
41:03Never with such disregard for the cost of her actions.
41:06She's...
41:09Whatever you set in motion with Petra left her no alternative.
41:17Can she follow this back to us?
41:22If she does,
41:25you're all in grave danger.
41:36No, fair.
41:42Oh, látologists.
41:48Tommy Kharnoom.
41:49Ah.
41:49No, no.
