00:01Previously on Motherlife
00:04We don't know how, but this force protects us when we're threatened.
00:07Just let me in.
00:09I wanna know how someone gets to be you.
00:11Sofri gave me a place to put my pain.
00:14I guess we're more alike than I thought.
00:17What are you doing?
00:18I have no idea.
00:19I warned all witches of the Camarena's back.
00:22That's a fetch!
00:22She's been trapped!
00:26I really missed you.
00:27I thought you were dead.
00:28He's changing.
00:29This is not his place.
00:31The bond we shared will endure forever.
00:35We're surrounded.
00:36I have a real surprise.
00:38How can I help?
00:38Hello?
00:56It's been like this for days.
00:59They haven't been able to recreate the phenomenon at all.
01:03I've thrown everything I could think of at them.
01:06Sonics, weather work, physical and environmental stressors.
01:11Nothing.
01:13Disappointing.
01:14I've got a delegation coming from The Hague, and I had hope to tell them
01:17we had a new weapon in the coming fight against the Camarillo.
01:22Okay.
01:25Soldiers, I want to thank you for your patience and cooperation.
01:29But we're suspending these tests.
01:31We can keep going, ma'am.
01:33For now, it's more important that you join Cadet Craven for the start of War College.
01:37But, ma'am, in the desert this week...
01:38Ah!
01:41Yes, ma'am.
01:42Thank you, ma'am.
01:55We need to find a different way forward.
02:00Any ideas?
02:02A closer look at the effects of the event might shed some light.
02:06May I show you something that just arrived from the Turim region?
02:13I always feel so humbled in her presence.
02:19General.
02:33Direct from the epicenter of the event.
02:38Extraordinary.
02:40I've never seen anything like it.
02:43Nothing human remains.
02:45I'm confident that my examination will tell us more about what it was that happened.
02:50And whether we can make it happen again.
02:53Keep me informed.
02:57Oh, yeah.
03:22It's not.
03:22Thanks, everyone.
03:22Yeah.
03:23I know.
03:23I know.
04:15Are they going to keep testing you?
04:17No, they don't tell us anything.
04:19I hope so.
04:20There's no way they're just going to let it go.
04:21What, so you want to keep being a lab rat?
04:23If it keeps us in the fight, yes.
04:26Don't you want to understand what happened?
04:27Yes, of course I do, but I'd rather we figured out ourselves
04:30than have Isadora poking and prodding us.
04:33How about you?
04:35Any more weird alder dreams or snake bites?
04:37It was centipedes, and no, but I almost wish I would have one.
04:41It was terrifying, but also kind of amazing.
04:44All right, Bells.
04:45I know you've been waiting for this day your whole life,
04:47so what are we in for?
04:48Yeah, when do we meet our company?
04:50This morning, but nobody says company.
04:52Just call it our coven.
04:57Sekhmet.
04:58Egyptian?
04:59Every coven's named after a war goddess.
05:02Guys, apparently there are a lot of rumors going around
05:06about the three of us.
05:12What?
05:17I guess some people are saying we only got in
05:19because your mom pulled strings.
05:22Let people talk.
05:23We'll show them what we're made of soon enough.
05:31Is that the VP's daughter?
05:33Yeah.
05:35They're having her stay this side of base, the basic starts.
05:38Oh, she looks so lonely.
05:39I feel bad for her.
05:41I was still bittied when her father met, but Mulder
05:45seems freaked out by the whole witch thing.
05:55It's been a week.
05:56What have you learned?
05:57You were right.
05:59While I haven't heard anyone use the word Camarilla,
06:02it's clear that there's someone powerful pulling the strings.
06:05These rallies and vigils, they're too well-funded,
06:08too well-organized.
06:11We'll need more than that.
06:14And I've made friends.
06:16A couple, Bonnie and Shane,
06:19and they seem pretty well-connected.
06:20How so?
06:21Well, they always know when and where
06:23the next event is going to be,
06:24like before anyone else.
06:26Today, they'll be at the mall.
06:28Can you get close to them?
06:29I think so.
06:31The wife, she seems lonely.
06:34I think she can use a friend.
06:36Be careful.
06:38Don't lose sight of the mission.
06:40You know what can happen when you get too close.
06:47Why didn't you reach out to her?
06:49Did you know that when Rael was 10,
06:53I spent a total of 18 days with my family?
06:56Yeah, she said it was like that a lot.
06:59Because they didn't approve of who I married.
07:02They decided to keep me in the field
07:03and keep us apart.
07:05Every time I walked in the door
07:07and saw that my girl was growing up without me,
07:10I got angrier.
07:13And that anger grew
07:15until I lost sight of everything
07:17but the Spree's mission.
07:20In the end, she still grew up without me.
07:23I live with that every day.
07:25And once we knew the Camarilla had returned,
07:27I started thinking she might be better off,
07:31safer, in the army.
07:33What about now?
07:35What would I even say?
07:40Welcome to War College, Sekhmet.
07:43I'm your coven leader.
07:45Call me M.
07:46Feel free to come to me
07:48with any questions you might have.
07:49You will have some of your general classes
07:52together as a coven,
07:53but on most days,
07:54you will be following
07:54your individual specializations.
07:58Once you've finished dealing
07:59with your super cool hair, of course.
08:01Fear not.
08:03We're still bunking together as units.
08:05You'll find rooms down the hall
08:06if you want to go ahead and stow your gear.
08:08Dismissed.
08:14Been a while, Bill Weather?
08:16It's good to see you.
08:18Hi, Gregorio.
08:22Later.
08:23Call her.
08:24Can I borrow you for a sec?
08:41I'm sorry about earlier.
08:43No need to apologize.
08:44I was staring at you.
08:46Why?
08:47Your reputation precedes you.
08:50I just wanted to see
08:51what all the fuss was about.
08:53Gossip's a little high school thing,
08:54you think?
08:58In War College,
09:00gossip is intel.
09:02There's only one thing
09:03I've heard that concerns me.
09:05So am.
09:06That had to suck.
09:09Yeah.
09:09It did.
09:12Still does.
09:14I just want to make sure
09:16that this is all in the past.
09:19No more secrets
09:20that are going to come to light
09:22and reflect poorly on this company.
09:25Well, believe me.
09:28I'm all done with secrets.
09:34So, who is he?
09:37That's Gregorio.
09:38You've heard about him before.
09:40Hi, Cavalier.
09:41Oh, yeah.
09:42At your debut?
09:43Mm-hmm.
09:44Like the one that Libra
09:44stole from you?
09:45No one stole me.
09:49I'm not a possession.
09:55Oh, you just see your faces.
09:58Look, the whole thing
09:59was a misunderstanding.
10:02Libra and I
10:03were actually together back then.
10:04I'm sorry.
10:05I never knew that.
10:06No one did.
10:07We were keeping it a secret.
10:09And then,
10:10my Atlantic tradition
10:12and the stars
10:13just dictated
10:13that I be your Cavalier.
10:16Libra was never big on tradition.
10:18Well, unless it was a tradition
10:19of giving you shit,
10:21she was fond of that one.
10:23Yeah.
10:27You know,
10:27she would have liked
10:28your eulogy, though.
10:29You were there?
10:32I thought it was beautiful.
10:36And it was fun
10:37watching your mother squirm.
10:39And now you're a male witch
10:41at war college.
10:41That must be exciting.
10:43Yeah, you can just say witch.
10:45Oh, no, I didn't mean to.
10:46I'm kidding.
10:48Come on.
10:49Is she always a serious?
10:52Yeah.
10:55Sekhmet!
10:56See you on there!
11:05I just wanted to wish you
11:06all well
11:07on your first day
11:08of war college
11:09and impress upon you
11:11the importance
11:11of the journey
11:12that you're on.
11:13It's not just
11:14about the spray anymore.
11:16We are now,
11:17all of us,
11:19facing the return
11:20of an enemy
11:21that I thought
11:21was gone from
11:22this world forever.
11:23An enemy
11:24that wants
11:25nothing less
11:26but the eradication
11:27of our kind.
11:29I want the thought
11:31of that enemy,
11:33the Camarilla,
11:36to be in your mind
11:38always
11:38as you continue
11:40your training,
11:42driving you
11:43to excel
11:43and develop the skills
11:45that we will need
11:46to destroy them.
11:49I also want
11:50to encourage you
11:51to embrace
11:52the foundational principles
11:53of war college.
11:57To know
12:01you must be
12:02constantly seeking
12:03the truth
12:03no matter
12:04where it leads you.
12:09to dare
12:12to be utterly fearless
12:15not just in facing
12:17the enemy
12:17but also
12:19what lies inside you.
12:25To will
12:26to affect change
12:29in the world around you
12:30with total control
12:31and conscious intention.
12:36and to keep silent.
12:41You spoke the words
12:42in your oath
12:43all secrets keep.
12:46It is this veil of silence
12:48that allows us
12:48to do what needs
12:49to be done
12:50to keep this nation safe.
12:53These are the pillars
12:54on which your curriculum
12:56is built
12:56and the precepts
12:58by which I live
12:59my own life.
13:01Take them to heart
13:04and they will
13:05serve you well.
13:10And with that
13:13I'll leave you
13:13to get on
13:14with your day.
13:31If you're going to
13:32bring intrigue
13:33to class
13:33you're going to have
13:34to make sure
13:34that there's enough
13:35to share.
13:36I think this is the part
13:38where we keep silent.
13:52Carefully, now.
14:01It looks like
14:02the mycelium.
14:03It doesn't just
14:04look like it.
14:11This is part
14:12of our mycelium.
14:15Somehow she colonized
14:16a body that was
14:17halfway around
14:17the world at the time.
14:19How is that possible?
14:20Through Raelle.
14:22That must have been
14:23her voice it was using.
14:25Raelle is the only
14:26person who touched
14:28the mycelium
14:28and walked
14:29to where more
14:29less unscathed.
14:31They're still
14:31connected somehow.
14:33Oh, my God.
15:07ORCHESTRA PLAYS
15:45ORCHESTRA PLAYS
16:03ORCHESTRA PLAYS
16:03ORCHESTRA PLAYS
16:04ORCHESTRA PLAYS
16:14ORCHESTRA PLAYS
16:21I'm pleased you've all turned out to pay your respects, but we must also raise our
16:27voices and let the powers that be know that we demand justice.
16:34We demand that the monsters responsible for this be held accountable.
16:40For too many years, the spree have been waging a war.
16:44The victims of this war are not witches, but decent, God-fearing Americans.
16:50Let's not let their sacrifice be in vain.
16:57Justine!
16:59I was wondering if I'd see you here.
17:01Hi.
17:02Yeah, no, I wanted to come and pay my respects.
17:06Shane is very inspiring.
17:08He's good, right?
17:09He certainly is.
17:10I lost both my parents in this attack, and I think about them all the time.
17:17And there's this hollow ache inside me where they used to be.
17:23It's okay.
17:24I know.
17:25It's hard to hear these stories.
17:27I think about all the ups and downs of life that I'll never get to share with them if for
17:31what.
17:33All because they were in the wrong place.
17:59All because they were in the wrong place.
18:01And left in her.
18:13What the hell are you doing?
18:16I can ask you the same thing.
18:20Revisiting some of your old haunts, feeling nostalgic.
18:23You've been following me.
18:25That fetch.
18:26That was you.
18:29Why haven't you arrested me?
18:31Because that's not what this is about.
18:33This is part of your quest to save me.
18:35To capitalize on the remorse you think that you felt when you linked with me.
18:40I'm sorry to disappoint.
18:42But you're wrong.
18:43You mean the remorse has been written all over your face from the moment you walked in here?
18:50Look.
18:52You're right.
18:54That's how it started.
18:55But I've been watching you for weeks.
18:58It's got me curious.
19:00You're trying to infiltrate this movement, figure out who's behind it.
19:03It's more complicated than that.
19:08You think it's the Camarilla?
19:12Our ancient enemy has returned.
19:16Has the spree changed its focus?
19:19Some of us have.
19:21Why reveal yourself now?
19:23I saw an opportunity and I took it.
19:25Look, I want in on what you're doing.
19:26Last potion.
19:28What's really going on here?
19:31There are things that I've seen lately.
19:35Things about the army and Alder in particular that just don't sit right.
19:40Including the decision to just throw you away.
19:43Just has me wondering if there might not be a different way.
19:47Justine.
19:49There you are.
19:50We thought maybe you had left.
19:52Bonnie and Shane, this is...
19:53Hi, I'm Amelia.
19:55Your speech was so moving.
20:00So sorry for your loss.
20:03It's hard being here.
20:05So, um, you two know each other.
20:08Yeah.
20:09We've seen each other at rallies the past few weeks.
20:13Feels like we're kindred spirits.
20:16I'm so sorry.
20:17This is all a bit overwhelming.
20:19Does anyone else need a drink?
20:22Definitely.
20:26Okay.
20:35Hey.
20:37You okay?
20:40Yeah, it's just my dad.
20:44I get it.
20:45With me, it's my mom.
20:47We can't get through a call without it ending up in tears.
20:50Tal, we're gonna be late for class.
20:52Don't worry.
20:55It'll get better.
21:07Come here.
21:16Sorry I'm late, cadets.
21:19My name is Channing Grafton,
21:22and I will be your instructor for mother tongue.
21:27Uh, I've asked Adil, our guest from the Tareem,
21:29to sit in since, unlike most American witches,
21:32he grew up speaking mother tongue from birth.
21:35How many of you are wondering
21:37why you need to study this at all?
21:40Isn't it just for the Hague at this point?
21:42Or Hyde Lanix?
21:43No offense.
21:56I lost you at the end.
22:00Will...
22:01I...
22:02You?
22:02Will you stand?
22:05He's challenging you to a duel.
22:09There's no comparable term for it in English,
22:12but, uh, right of proxy is the closest.
22:15It's a tradition that's, uh, fallen out of favor in recent times.
22:21So, besides being the root of all known languages,
22:24which I personally think is pretty cool,
22:26uh, there's certain work that can only be done using mother tongue.
22:29And, uh, ask yourself this.
22:32How is it that Adil is able to speak perfect English,
22:35a language he's never studied?
22:39See, I finally have your attention.
22:43So...
22:44Excuse me, General.
22:51May I have a moment?
22:52Craven, what can I do for you?
22:55I've been thinking a lot about Penelope Solver.
22:57What about her?
22:57I'd like your permission to tutor her,
23:00to get her up to speed and ready to start basing.
23:03Your empathy, as ever, shines through.
23:06You have my blessing.
23:09General, the Hague delegation has arrived
23:12and are waiting for you in your office.
23:14Carry on, Cadet.
23:24Hello, General Alder.
23:25I have...
23:26Calida.
23:29What are you doing here?
23:31Discussing.
23:32Where Adil and I might settle.
23:37How's it going?
23:38You have a...
23:39You have a...
23:46In the interest of finding a permanent home for the Terim,
23:49Calida will be touring some of the other Council nations.
23:52General Alder.
23:54I am forever grateful to you.
23:56But you know my feelings about us remaining here.
23:59If this is what you want, I'll arrange for a security detail.
24:03That won't be necessary.
24:05General Sharma has offered her protection.
24:08Calida.
24:10I wish you would reconsider.
24:12Talk to your brother.
24:14He was there in the Terim.
24:16He saw what the Camarilla is capable of.
24:19There have been reports of skirmishes with the Camarilla from several Council nations.
24:23And more outbreaks of that strange disease they created.
24:26We've been calling it the Witch Plague.
24:29Apparently it does not harm civilians.
24:31No.
24:32It's clear that the Camarilla have engineered it as a weapon of witch genocide.
24:36The Camarilla have found a way to replicate our work.
24:39Using technology powered by the stolen vocal cords of witches.
24:44It's an abomination.
24:47Sarah.
24:48How can they have risen again without any of us knowing?
24:51I don't know.
24:54But what's important now is that we come together to stamp them out.
24:58And remove the stain of their blood from this earth forever.
25:02I will root them out and destroy them in my country.
25:06Can I count on you to do the same in yours?
25:23Should I be offended that your mind is clearly focused on something else?
25:28I'm sorry.
25:31Kalita wants me to come with her on a world tour.
25:36Are you going to go with her?
25:39I don't know.
25:44I hear you had lunch with Gregorio.
25:47Can I ask you something?
25:50What is a Cavalilla?
25:52It sounds intimate.
25:54Frequently it is, but not with me and Gregorio.
25:59We just never click that way.
26:11I'm glad you're making friends though.
26:16Maybe that'll give you another reason to stay.
26:34The work you did with the bottle.
26:38What was that?
26:40Something of my own.
26:42It's definitely not canon.
26:45Maybe it could be.
26:48I don't think the Hague would approve.
26:50You saved our skins.
26:53For that I'm grateful.
26:55I'm happy to serve you, General.
26:58I've been watching you.
27:00What you can do is rare.
27:01It's too wild.
27:03You need to put that power in the service of your will.
27:05Maybe you can help me with that.
27:08Yes.
27:10I think I could do that.
27:18Better?
27:20Better.
27:41I am Major Magda Verger, and this is your introduction to off-canon work.
27:50Their sort of work is forbidden to you, but our enemies will not hesitate to use it, and neither will
27:58I.
28:00Let me be clear.
28:03You will not be learning how to use off-canon work.
28:08This is about learning to recognize it, and to resist it.
28:16Ma'am, is there anywhere we can turn that radiator down?
28:21What radiator?
28:30There are sounds all around us at all times, both above and below the range of our hearing, and all
28:41sorts of nastiness can be layered into those sounds.
28:45They can make you see and do terrible things.
28:50You must learn to recognize these sounds and resist them.
28:56Learn to identify and destroy their source.
29:03Ma'am, has the army ever used this sort of work in combat?
29:07No.
29:08This is the domain of our enemies.
29:11The spree, in particular.
29:14When I recall, it is an inter-councing weapon.
29:14I will be the doctor in the center.
29:16The spree, in particular, is your pardon.
29:32The spirit is a traitor that I saw, and I won't be conscious of.
29:33The spirit is a traitor...

36:06The years of research that you ruined.
36:10Years of my life that you stole!
36:13Abigail!
36:18You are an abomination.
36:20And you will die!
36:23And you will die!
36:37it's conclusive the phenomenon comes from rail and rail alone what else as we suspected it's
36:46protective the fear and the danger had to be real in order to trigger it thank you for approving the
36:53test was a risk worth taking how did abigail handle it she took a swing at me huh not surprising
37:03she
37:04recovered fine but i think she's disappointed not to be a part of this well bellwethers are nothing if
37:10not ambitious so you'll continue testing rail yes ma'am good but be careful with her she just became
37:23one of our greatest assets these people are all so damn manipulative they couldn't care less what
37:29happens to us that's part of being a soldier what they did to us today has nothing to do with
37:35being a soldier at this point the only people i trust are you two what does it feel like when
37:42it
37:42goes off this time it felt like me wanting to kill isadora it's not like anything i've ever felt
37:50it's exciting it's it's terrifying i felt incredibly powerful but also like it was completely out of my
37:59control sorry i don't i don't even think i could do it justice honestly what happens next
38:10more tests apparently just what i was hoping to avoid
38:20you okay
38:24yeah i'm uh i'm just really tired
38:30i'm gonna go back to the room
38:40so it was catch and release
38:42yeah i'm sorry i i should have been more careful
38:47what about her working alone do you believe it
38:49i don't know it's always very personal with anacostia
38:55maybe
38:56stay the course but be careful she's army you can never really trust them
39:07kalita
39:09uh have you seen your brother it's my brother that i want to talk about
39:15sure i'm going to my room if you want to talk there
39:17this will only take a moment i've agreed to let adil stay here
39:21while i search for a home for our people
39:24oh good i think he really likes it here
39:28i'm grateful to you abigail
39:31and i don't want you to get hurt but you have to understand that this is not a permanent situation
39:37in the end my brother will always choose his people just as you will always choose yours
39:58okay to truly understand the army and our place in the world you have to know our history
40:05and knowing is one of the four principles right
40:09oh we are gonna have you ready for basic in no time
40:13so where do we start at the very beginning with sarah alder herself
40:20is she really 300 years old oh she is more than in fact my dad says that's why he doesn't
40:26trust
40:26her he thinks that someone who lives that long couldn't really care about regular people
40:33sorry
