00:06If that stuff happens...
00:08It's going to happen.
00:09So what do we do?
00:10You dig the biggest hole you can, and you get in.
00:16We are preparing for a massive catastrophe
00:18that could cause an extinction-level event for humanity in the very real future.
00:22Wildcat is down. It's a code red.
00:25It's really bad, and I need you here five minutes ago.
00:28Copy you. I'm on my way.
00:30All security cameras were offline, frozen on the last image.
00:33But no one noticed because...
00:35No one else was in the house except Billy and he was dead to the world on that couch.
00:39Jane, everything's going to be looked at from here on out.
00:42I need you to trust me.
00:44Agent Collins, I'm going to need you to come with me.
00:46I just don't understand why of all the people that could be heading this up,
00:50they chose the one person who was sleeping with the victim.
00:53This is Dr. Gabriela Tarabi.
00:55She's a world-class therapist and grief specialist.
00:58Do you remember me?
00:58You were the president's therapist.
01:01I was yours, too.
01:02Uh, we did one session together early on.
01:07I have just one other question for you, if I may.
01:11Is a part of you happy that Cal is dead?
01:18Yes.
01:19Yes.
01:19Yes, yes.
01:22Yes.
01:25Yes.
02:26Dude, slow down. I'm going to pass out.
02:28You're not going to pass out.
02:30Yes, I am. I'm going to throw up and I'm going to fucking pass out.
02:33Remind me why we're doing this again.
02:35Really? If you're going to be my eyes and ears on this thing, when we meet up, it's got to
02:38look normal.
02:40Us having a beer at a fucking bar looks normal.
02:42Too many people at a bar.
02:44Jesus Christ.
02:45All right, come on, come on. Just walk it out.
02:52You should be the one in charge of this investigation, X.
02:55The ship has already sailed.
02:57Yeah, but why are you public enemy number one?
02:59I fell asleep on the couch.
03:01Brooks and Rainey and Jane were all on site.
03:02It's worth mentioning Robinson was boning the guy.
03:05POTUS got hit and I didn't call it in for over 30 minutes.
03:08Plus, I was the last person to see him alive.
03:11It is weird that he's gone.
03:14I mean, he was a motherfucker, but he was our motherfucker, right?
03:20I mean, I know you're hating him.
03:21I didn't hate him.
03:22It's complicated.
03:24Yeah.
03:27Why don't we just tell everybody the truth?
03:29What, that POTUS was murdered?
03:30That his tablet with government secrets and God knows what else is missing?
03:33And that we think the people that built this place are covering it up?
03:38I mean, I'd tune in.
03:40I need you to be careful, Billy.
03:42It's not really my thing, Brooks.
03:44I know, man.
03:46But try.
03:47All right.
03:517.15 miles, Agent Pace.
03:52How bad?
03:53You keep that up and you may just lose them titties.
03:56You mean these beefy pecs?
03:57I don't know, man.
03:58They look like some big old titties to me.
04:02Where you off to?
04:03See you in a therapist.
04:05All right.
04:08All right.
04:41Just a second.
04:45Dr. Tarabi.
04:47Agent Collins.
04:49Bad time?
04:51Um, no, not at all.
04:54Oh, I, I was just playing a little game of 52 pickup.
04:59Looks messy.
05:02I think I have a guess as to why you're here.
05:04Why did you tell me to say yes?
05:07Agent Collins, if you'd like to schedule an appointment, I'd be more than happy to set up a timeline for
05:11you.
05:11Here's a simple question, doctor.
05:20I'm headed out.
05:23Care to join me for a walk?
05:27Sure.
05:29Great.
05:53The deceased is a white male.
05:55Well, there's a right ZMC fracture with a severe orbital blowout.
06:01Sorry, I'm a bit out of practice.
06:06Continuing on to the second injury, there's comminution of the orbital parietal bones severing the statin and the bank.
06:14Evidence of blood force trauma.
06:17Preliminary wound analysis suggests the murder weapon was some sort of heavy object, something jagged.
06:23There are samples of what appear to be soil from an area around the head wound, likely indicating a large
06:29rock.
06:30He was first hit on his right side while standing.
06:34The catastrophic fracture to the top of his cranium likely happened while he was on the ground.
06:39Very likely defenseless.
06:41That said, there are signs of ecchymosis on his hands.
06:44Contusions, bruising, signs of a struggle.
06:47And you've swabbed his fingernails for traces of DNA?
06:49I did.
06:51How long before any DNA results come back?
06:54Our tech is limited down here and we're out of practice, as I said, but it...
06:58How long?
07:00A day or two.
07:07A day or two.
07:56It's still amazing to me how resilient human beings can be.
08:01It's been three years and this place has become our normal.
08:05And trust me, it took a lot of work to get it to feel this way.
08:09The insect sounds.
08:12Those are a particularly nice touch.
08:15The recordings were done in national parks all over the country.
08:18Why are we walking?
08:20You think someone bugged your office?
08:22They recorded every insect they could find.
08:24Thousands of hours.
08:26Day, night, uh, dusk.
08:28Dr. Tarabi.
08:29Yes, maybe.
08:29Who?
08:32Who do you think?
08:34Sinatra and the Billionaires.
08:36Sounds like a rock band, doesn't it?
08:39Agent Collins.
08:41Agent Collins, how well do you remember our first meeting?
08:45To be honest, not very.
08:48Agent Xavier Collins.
08:50The first patient I'd ever seen take the fifth in therapy.
08:56I remember I asked you about your background, and then, uh, I distinctly remember you saying
09:01I Plead the Fifth, and you weren't being funny either.
09:04I have seen some shit over the years, but I have never seen that before.
09:07So are we going to play games, or are we going to talk?
09:12The only person who was less forthcoming in therapy than you?
09:17President Bradford.
09:20At least when we started, but eventually he opened up.
09:24I sat with him.
09:28The day before his death, but you know that.
09:31How did he seem to you?
09:36Something happened that last week.
09:39He seemed tired, burdened.
09:44He was the president.
09:46And he was in my office, stumbling around drunk in his bathroom.
09:53I want to know why you stepped in the other day.
09:55I took another look at your file.
09:59Tell me about your relationship with your father.
10:10Why did you two stop speaking?
10:13Sorry I'm late.
10:16Traffic was awful.
10:17Hey, I'm the one that asked you to brave that rush hour traffic, so we could spend a few minutes
10:21catching up.
10:22And here I am.
10:23And here you are.
10:24Good son.
10:25I'm the best son.
10:26Don't push your luck.
10:29Solo chess?
10:30Mm-hmm.
10:32Helps focus the mind.
10:34So does a nap.
10:36Relaxes me.
10:37You know, naps do that too.
10:40This should make things more interesting.
10:43Uh-huh.
10:44Mm-hmm.
10:45You know, owns well at the academy?
10:49All is well.
10:53You done made a hell of a pilot.
10:57What am I saying?
10:57You can still fly with the best of them, even if they won't allow you to do it for a
11:01living.
11:05I just wish that I could, you know, I could have done something.
11:07I am who I am because of what you and mom gave me.
11:10Poor eyesight is just part of the deal.
11:14How's Terry?
11:16That's another reason I'm late.
11:17Uh, she's had better days.
11:20What do you mean?
11:21Better days, I don't understand.
11:23Something happened?
11:24Uh, she's been nauseous a lot.
11:27In the morning.
11:28Mm-hmm.
11:29It's like a sickness.
11:30Mm-hmm.
11:31Like a morning sickness.
11:33Mm-hmm.
11:34Dad.
11:44I'm gonna be your grandfather.
11:45Now he's getting it.
11:49Well, you know I'm too sexy to be a grandfather.
11:52There it is.
11:55Thank you, sir.
11:59Mm-hmm.
12:00You pick a name yet?
12:02You know Terry's obsessed with Elvis, right?
12:04Are you sure she's one of us?
12:06Uh, she likes Presley.
12:09I like Fritos, but it doesn't mean I want to name my granddaughter after them.
12:12I guess I'm gonna be flying through Dulles a lot more, huh?
12:20I guess so.
12:26There's nothing to tell, really.
12:32Look, I'll tell you what I know about Cal Bradford, but you're asking me to take a chance on you.
12:37And I need to know more about the man I'm taking a chance on than what's in his file.
12:45What do you say?
12:46Do we have a deal?
13:00You look good in my boxers.
13:03Do I?
13:04Mm.
13:05Mm.
13:06Mm.
13:08Would you like a presidential debriefing this morning?
13:16You're an idiot.
13:18I put on our songs.
13:22Mm.
13:22Look at the wind.
13:25Yeah.
13:27Look at the wind.
13:29Yeah.
13:31Okay.
13:44Agent Robinson.
13:58I didn't expect to see you here.
14:00A man I've known for 20 years was murdered.
14:04Someone got access to this house and killed him.
14:06We put him in the ground in two days.
14:08I'd like to find out who did it before we do.
14:11Ma'am, I, uh...
14:15I know that you're upset.
14:17I know that you cared about him very much.
14:20Cut the bullshit, Robinson.
14:23Someone stole the tablet and I want it back.
14:25Do you understand?
14:28I'm on it.
14:30Are you sure?
14:32Because here's what I can't have.
14:35I can't have some lovelorn mistress daydreaming about her secret workplace affair.
14:40If it's all too close and too fresh, I'll find someone else.
14:44I said I'm on it.
14:46Give me the space to do my job.
14:49Give me the confidence to give you the space.
14:59I say we need more bunker babies.
15:02Who does?
15:03No, they.
15:06You actually think everyone's past all the trauma?
15:09God, no.
15:09No.
15:10I mean, it's not like we're ever all going to be whole again.
15:13But by building this place, we gave people the tools to begin to move on.
15:18Take a look around.
15:20What do you see?
15:23There's more socializing than there is shopping.
15:26Ancient Greeks believed that a healthy social life was the key to a flourishing life.
15:31And the agora, which is the Greek term for market, was an important component.
15:37It's why the population down here was so limited.
15:39It's just small enough to retain that sense of community.
15:43I mean, it's also the ideal population size for our oxygen filtration system.
15:47But, you know, there's no fancy Greek word for that.
15:51Okay, you want me to bite?
15:52I'll bite.
15:53Why do you know so much about this place?
15:56Because I helped design it.
15:58The psychological aspects of it, that is.
16:01I was hired to help make a community of grieving, dislocated people, live a flourishing life.
16:10One with grocery stores and parks and a diner with the world's all-time greatest cheese fries.
16:17I like to think of myself as an architect of social well-being.
16:22Because you brought in cheese fries?
16:24The world's all-time greatest cheese fries.
16:26Hmm.
16:33Do you think they have anything?
16:39God save the queen.
16:41Knock it off, peace.
16:42Okay.
16:44Here's where we are.
16:46Forensics didn't find any prints or fiber evidence.
16:49Anybody close to him seems to have an alibi.
16:51We have no motive.
16:53No murder weapon.
16:55What about DNA?
16:56Samples are taken from the president's body.
16:58It's going to take a few days.
17:00The M.E. says that the time of death lines up with the window in which our cameras were down.
17:05And the preliminary autopsy report shows that the cause of death was blunt force trauma from a heavy, irregularly shaped
17:15object.
17:18Any other questions?
17:20Not me.
17:22Oh, you know what?
17:23Wait, I do have one.
17:24Why in the holy fuck isn't Xavier here?
17:28Agent Collins ignored protocol.
17:31His actions that morning were antithetical to-
17:33Don't use big words to try to confuse me.
17:35Robinson, he's our best agent.
17:36He should be here.
17:59Oh, don't mind me.
18:05Our cameras were down the night of the murder, so that's what we're focusing on.
18:09What are the chances of getting something off the surveillance system?
18:12It's a long shot, but, uh, maybe I could pull the equivalent of a digital fingerprint off the network.
18:17It's about a 10% chance I can get us the identity of the person who turned them off.
18:22How long?
18:23I'm not a magician.
18:24Uh, end of day.
18:25Maybe.
18:26Okay.
18:27That'll be all.
18:36I'm confident that I'm off to calm down the most erotic president in the history of the world.
18:48When I come back, I want some answers.
18:55You're hired by Sinatra?
18:57Samantha.
18:58It's a natural to you.
19:00We met, um, when she was utterly broken.
19:03I was an expert in grief.
19:05She thought I could help her, and she gave me an opportunity.
19:08And now you're here.
19:09And now we're here.
19:12Can she be trusted?
19:16I'm done talking for a minute.
19:18Tell me about your father.
19:21What happened?
19:26Get nervous about that move?
19:33They put me on the VP's detail.
19:36Oh, wow.
19:39Congratulations, sir.
19:41Thank you very much.
19:44Tell me, whose job is it to choose the code name?
19:48No, seriously.
19:49Is that the Secret Service?
19:51Because I've got some ideas for that imbecile.
19:53Well, I'm sorry to inform you, but the White House gives out code names in consultation with the protectees.
20:00I read somewhere that JFK and the Jackie were Lancer and Lace.
20:07Huh.
20:08Yeah.
20:08Quite apropos, don't you think?
20:10Yeah, yeah, yeah.
20:11You forgot that.
20:19Hey, Dad, what's going on there?
20:21Hmm?
20:22No, you got a tremor.
20:24I just saw it.
20:24No, it's nothing.
20:25Talk to me.
20:26It's nothing.
20:27It's nothing.
20:27It's nothing at all.
20:29Forget about it.
20:32What aren't you telling me?
20:37I have Parkinson's.
20:43Oh, come on now, don't you.
20:45If you start crying, I'm going to call in a bomb threat.
20:48Dad, I'm just, when did you cry?
20:57I'm so sorry.
21:00Well, I'm dealing with it.
21:02I'm managing all the symptoms with meds.
21:05I'm eating healthy, exercising.
21:08Your mother's hot my ass about it.
21:10Did you tell the company?
21:12Of course not.
21:15What?
21:16Are you hiding it?
21:18What?
21:18What about the other flight crew?
21:20Well, some of the guys know.
21:21They know that they're just going to have to be a bit more vigilant when we're working together.
21:25I'm on top of it.
21:28I can't believe what I'm hearing.
21:31You're violating your union's code of ethics.
21:34Hey, you could go to jail.
21:36Oh, come on.
21:38Come on.
21:42All right, what would you have me do?
21:43Retire.
21:44And then, I don't know, take up golf?
21:48Take mom to Italy like she wants, but you got to stop flying.
21:53Right now.
21:56Well, I appreciate your concern, but this is my decision to make.
22:00Dad, this is a...
22:04I'm a pilot, son.
22:06That's what I am.
22:11And, uh, I just need a little more time.
22:14That's all.
22:16I've got a flight to make.
22:31My father and I had a falling out.
22:33It happens.
22:35He wanted me to be a pilot, following his footsteps.
22:38It turned out I couldn't do that, so I joined the secret search.
22:41I know the order of events, okay?
22:42I read it in the profile.
22:43There's nothing else.
22:43Well, I think there is.
22:44I'm telling you, there is.
22:45Tell me about his last flight.
22:47No.
22:51You're frustrated.
22:52Yes.
22:53Okay, with me.
22:54With all of it, okay?
22:56But clearly, you're a very smart person, and clearly, you've worked very hard at becoming
23:00an architect of...
23:02Social well-being.
23:02But there's nothing normal about any of this.
23:05I want to know what you know about Cal, and I don't want to talk about my old life, because
23:09my old life ended.
23:11The world ended, and everyone and everything in it is gone.
23:16And no amount of groceries, or pre-recorded insect noises, or most especially, goddamn fucking
23:22cheese fries is going to change a thing about it.
23:31Wow.
23:33Yeah, that was a lot.
23:40So what now?
23:44Well...
23:45I mean, I have an idea, but I don't think you're going to like it.
23:48Try me.
23:52I was thinking we'd go get some cheese fries.
24:12This is bad.
24:14What are we going to do if Garcia finds out?
24:16Take it easy.
24:16He just said there's a 90% chance he can't figure out who messed with the system.
24:20Yeah, and there's a 10% chance he can.
24:22Hey, hey, hey.
24:26What the fuck, Brooks?
24:28This part of the house is off limits.
24:30On whose orders?
24:32Robinson's.
24:36Thanks.
24:41You think he heard us?
24:43No.
24:43You could tell Robinson about it.
24:46Don't worry so much.
24:48If it comes down to it, I'll deal with Robinson.
24:51All right?
24:55Go.
24:56You go.
25:10Henry, you need to calm down.
25:12Remember what the doctors told you?
25:17Mr. President, I can protect you in your home and in public.
25:20But if a blood vessel bursts in your brain or you stroke out...
25:25Well, sir, I'm not that good.
25:28Cal had stayed there security.
25:29Look what happened to him.
25:31Cal is dead.
25:33He was my friend, and we're just moving on.
25:37Going about our lives as if nothing happened.
25:41They're still doing a goddamn carnival tomorrow.
25:48Cal was a decent and honorable man.
25:56He was my friend, too.
26:01And we honor him by being clear-eyed in our pursuit of justice.
26:06And do we know where this pursuit is taking us?
26:11You have no leads.
26:13I thought you had surveillance cameras all over the place.
26:16Well, despite what you might have heard, I don't record everything that happens in the city.
26:31Henry, you've walked into a lot here. I get it.
26:34It's unfair what's being asked of you.
26:37President. I mean...
26:41It's a lot.
26:47But you're doing a fantastic job, really. I mean, I just couldn't be more pleased.
26:54You're a quiet man, but you're a steady one, and you've stepped up to the plate.
26:59The only person doing better than you is your lovely wife here.
27:02Oh, please stop.
27:03It's true. You are crushing it, Nance.
27:06Your outfit at the swearing-in? Get the fuck out of here.
27:09I mean, women were going crazy. We're gonna have to open a store.
27:17Samantha, promise me you'll catch whoever did this.
27:21I will, sir.
27:24Then that will be all.
27:30It's my office, sir.
27:33Yes. Of course.
27:45I can't believe you're cheating on me with him!
27:48I know. I'm sorry. I usually come here and share a plate of cheese fries with Maggie.
27:52Now, obviously down here, we use nut cheese, which I know sounds disgusting and weird.
27:58It's such a large and prominent dose, but I swear you won't notice.
28:02I hate that cashew cheese crap.
28:03Oh, no. This place does it different. It's not the cashews. It's the chemicals.
28:07Here we are.
28:09One order extra cheese coming up.
28:12Mm-hmm.
28:18Wow.
28:19I thought I knew what vigilance looked like, but holy shit.
28:22You've been scanning this room from the moment we walked in.
28:27Do you always choose the seat facing the door?
28:30Old habits die hard.
28:32Mm.
28:36And what are you staring at now?
28:38You're identifying all the exits in the room, aren't you?
28:40I did that the minute we walked in here.
28:43What I'm staring at is the woman seated in that booth.
28:48Different time and place, I would have considered her a potential threat.
28:54Why? Because she's hungry?
28:57The knife.
28:59She can use either hand.
29:01Hm.
29:04It must be difficult.
29:06How do you mean?
29:08Just seeing the world as nothing but a series of threats.
29:12You see something different?
29:16Well, where you see a threat, Xavier,
29:18I see a mother who's learned to feed her child on either side of her.
29:23Okay.
29:25So where are the kids?
29:30We all lost something on our way here.
29:33You know that as well as anyone.
29:36I didn't lose my wife. I know exactly where she was.
29:39She was in a different city when it happened,
29:42and she died because he didn't get her to a goddamn plane.
29:53Please remember to chew, Gabriella.
29:55Move your hand or I'll eat it.
29:57Just sweat.
29:59Mm.
30:00So good.
30:01After you.
30:02You.
30:02No, no, no. Please.
30:03You first.
30:06Pick a good one.
30:09I'll take the long, I'll take the long, I'll take the long, I'll take the long.
30:32Oh, no, no, no. It's good. It's good to remember the things that brought you joy.
30:39Soft-shelled crab.
30:43Summer peaches.
30:48Smell of a campfire.
30:51Peaceful snowfall.
30:53The warmth of the sun.
30:55The real sun.
30:58I'll take the long, I'll take the long road Oh, yeah.
31:04sand between my toes.
31:05Take that shortcut.
31:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.
31:09Oh, no.
31:11It's ok to see it.
31:12Oh, yeah, sure.
31:14That I was an infinite time
31:15On our second date, Terry and I drove out to the beach at Sandy Point.
31:21Terry loved the ocean.
31:23And I do, too, really.
31:25But, um, the sand?
31:29Not so much.
31:31So a trip to the beach is a bit like a combat mission.
31:34It's me against this damn sand.
31:37I gotta find just the right spot.
31:40Fold open the chairs, set up the umbrella, lay out the towels just so.
31:46And I didn't realize Terry was watching me the entire time.
31:50So, there I am.
31:53All set up, finally.
31:56And she just walks over and messes all my shit up.
31:58Oh.
32:01She was the person who could get a little sand on me.
32:07She was the only person who could do that.
32:11She sounds lovely.
32:26She said you wanted to know about my dad's last flight.
32:38There you go.
32:39Here.
32:41Whose star is it?
32:43It's mine.
32:44It's mine.
32:45Ooh.
32:47Looks like the beginning of the scotch game.
32:50Uh-huh.
32:51That's aggressive for you, son.
32:53Something different for a change.
32:55Mm-hmm.
32:58No, the meds are taking care of the tremors.
33:01I'm fine.
33:04Notice you're wearing a different lapel pin.
33:10I was named to the president's detail.
33:15I mean, I'm one of, like, 50 agents, but still.
33:19I wanted to tell you in person.
33:26You'll get to go aboard Air Force One?
33:29Yes, sir.
33:33My God.
33:37Would you like to see her?
33:42Hell yeah.
33:50She can fly at over 600 miles per hour,
33:53is equipped with 85 phone lines,
33:56and get this,
33:58has flares for defense against missile attacks,
34:01and can withstand a nuclear blast on the ground.
34:09Wow.
34:12You good?
34:15You won't understand, son.
34:18You won't understand.
34:21Until your kids get older,
34:26look at where you are.
34:31Look at what you've done, son.
34:34Look at what you've done, Dad.
34:37The son of a Tuskegee Airman,
34:40who became one of a handful of black captains
34:43of a commercial airline,
34:44and his son now protects
34:46the president of the United States.
34:50Yeah.
34:51Yeah.
34:52Look at where we are.
34:56And, Dad,
34:58we got here by doing things the right way.
35:02Yeah.
35:03Yeah.
35:06It's time, Pop.
35:10You can't fly anymore.
35:13You gotta retire.
35:17That's not your decision to make.
35:20It shouldn't be.
35:21But you made it my decision.
35:26What have you done?
35:28What have you done?
35:30What have you done?
35:33What have you done?
35:34What have you done?
35:34These papers don't take away years of service.
35:38They say,
35:40well done, Dad.
35:42That's what these papers say.
35:43That's all they say.
35:46I filed them for you, Dad.
35:49I filed them
35:51because I knew you wouldn't.
36:02I'd see them on holidays,
36:04but without the airport meetings,
36:06things shifted.
36:09My relationship was never the same.
36:13And the disease progressed quickly,
36:15and we lost them soon after that.
36:20Must have been very difficult
36:21to do what you did.
36:26That's the thing.
36:27It wasn't.
36:29It's the way he wired me up.
36:33It just wasn't.
36:37We have a strong moral compass.
36:39And it served me real well.
36:44Well, I think it may now.
36:49It's time to show you my cards.
37:07What do you have for me?
37:10Something good.
37:13You strike me as the kind of person
37:15who likes a show.
37:18Sit down.
37:20I'm going to give you a show.
37:21Bring them in.
37:35Why did they do it?
37:38That's the question
37:39I keep asking myself.
37:45Are you talking to me?
37:46I don't follow.
37:48Are we talking about the investigation?
37:52Fireplace.
37:53Now, why would they build
37:55a fireplace down here?
37:57I don't know, ma'am.
38:00We're, we're in a cave
38:02and fire's elemental to who we are.
38:08It's storytellers or some bullshit.
38:13Why did you two shut down the cameras
38:14the night of the murder?
38:18Tell her.
38:23She doesn't have the footage.
38:26That's true, Billy.
38:27That is very true.
38:31But we have your digital footprint.
38:34We know you accessed the system
38:36to shut down the cameras.
38:39And it wasn't just the night of the murder.
38:40You've done it other nights, too.
38:42In fact, you've been doing it for months.
38:44Please.
38:45That all adds up to means and opportunity.
38:49Now we just need a motive.
38:50We were playing, we...
38:56What?
38:59Wee tennis, actually.
39:02What the fuck is wee tennis?
39:03A game.
39:05A video game.
39:07Also, sometimes we eat his candy
39:08from his junk drawer.
39:10Also, I once took a nap in his bed.
39:14Billy tried on his socks.
39:18It's the truth.
39:20Stupid and unprofessional as it sounds.
39:23We've been protecting a president
39:24inside of a secure bunker
39:25where nothing ever happens.
39:27Until something did happen.
39:28We realized if we shut down
39:30the security system,
39:31we could...
39:33we could play as video games
39:34and use this cool shit,
39:35and no one would really be
39:37the worst off with it.
39:37My God, you absolute idiots.
39:43Everybody get the fuck out of here.
39:49Okay.
39:57Start finding me some answers
39:59or I'll find someone who will.
40:04Today was, uh...
40:06interesting.
40:07Mm.
40:08I thought you were about to admit
40:09that you had fun.
40:11Never.
40:11No.
40:12I'm...
40:13I'm tired.
40:18Hey, do the numbers?
40:19Does 8-1-2-0-9-2
40:21mean anything to you?
40:25No.
40:26No.
40:27Why?
40:28Just something I'm looking into.
40:34There's so few people in the world.
40:38I guess I'm one of the lucky ones.
40:42But it doesn't feel like that.
40:46I don't appreciate it.
40:52I'm not sure I should have been chosen to be here.
40:57Honestly, I don't know why I was.
41:04Do you play poker?
41:07It's not my thing.
41:11I lost my parents when I was relatively young.
41:15My mom as a kid and my dad as a teenager.
41:18It's why I went into palliative care.
41:22My dad taught me to play when I was in middle school.
41:29It was our time together.
41:30I loved it.
41:32We'd play with tons of wild cards.
41:35And these wild cards could be anything,
41:38which made it even more fun,
41:40because it meant that you always had a chance.
41:47Xavier, you're here because I chose you.
41:56Everyone's here because I chose them.
41:59We need you to choose your new lead agent.
42:01Oh, I told you I trusted you to make the selections.
42:04And we have.
42:06Cal, the world is going to shit.
42:08You're going to be the one in charge when it ends,
42:10and it's going to be awful.
42:11This person will be by your side the entire time.
42:13I want it to be someone you're comfortable with.
42:16Who's she?
42:17She's on the team.
42:18She's evaluating and recommending candidates.
42:21The gatekeeper.
42:22I'm Gabriela.
42:23Yeah, we'll start with a G.
42:25This is true.
42:26I'm great at spelling.
42:27That's why I voted for you, sir.
42:30I like her.
42:31Mr. President,
42:33these are all vetted and approved candidates
42:35for your new lead agent.
42:37That's a shit ton of them.
42:43You keeping that one for yourself?
42:45No, sir.
42:46I was actually hoping that you would read this one first.
42:48He's already on your detail,
42:50but I have a pretty good feeling about him, sir.
42:58Let's go with your gut, then.
43:02When do I meet him?
43:04He's waiting in the hallway, Mr. President.
43:06Okie dokie.
43:09We'll give you the room.
43:14Agent Collins, come on in.
43:20Well, shoes off, please.
43:23That was my main job.
43:26Not grocery stores or cheese fries.
43:30It was choosing the thousands of people who would live when everyone else would die.
43:42And every day, I see the faces of thousands that I didn't pick to be saved.
43:50But you, you were my wild card.
43:57If something went wrong, I needed the person who would do the right thing, no matter what.
44:07So, this was all some kind of test?
44:11So, this was all some kind of test?
44:24What was that all about?
44:26What was that all about?
44:38I'm married.
44:45Night, now.
44:49Night, now.
44:50Night, now.
45:00I think we're alone now
45:07It doesn't seem to be anyone around
45:14I'm already in now
45:18The beating of our hearts is the only sound
45:28Children we hate
45:34That's what we say when we're together
45:40Watching your day
45:45We're running just as fast as we can
45:55Holding on to one another's hands
46:01Trying to get our way into the night
46:06And you put your eyes around me
46:09And you put your eyes around me
46:11I have a message from the president
46:22He said if something should happen to him I should find you
46:32He said Billy Pace is dangerous
46:34I think we're alone now
46:44The beating of our hearts is the only sound
46:54We're alone
47:00We're alone
47:06We're alone
47:11We're alone
47:14We're alone
47:17We're alone
49:09I'm the president.
49:10Say it to my face.
49:12I want to see what it looks like when you have balls, sir.
49:17You're one of the 25,000 people lucky enough to be spared.
49:21I'll take it all away without so much as blinking an eye.
49:27We have to go.
49:28Are you coming or not?
49:31Shut it down.
49:32Shut it all down.
49:33The president did something that day.
49:35Something you don't know about.
