Previously on revolution...
Grace?
I think I was sent here to find you.
She walked in late yesterday.
- Priscilla. - Aaron?
- You know her? - She was my wife.
My father said I had to come.
Your dead father.
I'm going crazy.
It's happening to you too, of all people.
- What? - Fireflies.
You've seen the fireflies?
We're gonna figure it out together, okay?
You took my son to Mexico?
Afternoon, folks.
- You're Connor? - Who the hell are you?
I'm your dad. You are a Monroe.
You should be leading the repuic.
You and me together, we can take it back.
- What happened? - Someone broke into my office.
They went through all my files, through everything.
What were you thinking, Tom?
I don't know what you're talking about.
It wasn't you.
Did you break into Doyle's office?
- Yeah. - We have to get you out of here.
Jason Neville.
Come with us, son.
What are they building? And why so fast?
We gotta go in there.
Freeze! Hold it!
If you're gonna kill us, just kill us.
Afraid I need you.
We had one case three days ago.
- Now, we have four. - They have typhus.
This is an outbreak.
Charlie?
Dad?
Aaron?
And all this time, I thought I was living the life.
Stuff's gone. They cleared out.
What the hell is all this?
Oh, that's nice, Rachel.
We're gone a week, and your dad switches sides again?
Look.
Charlie.
What's going on?
Those masks, and those are quarantine tents.
Looks like an outbreak.
Come on, I need four of you over here--
Right now! Right now!
- About ready inside? - Yeah.
Keep it steady, as steady as you can.
- Put him down? - No, straight back.
Move! Move!
Right here.
Hold him down!
- Hold him. - Charlie, get the bag.
Come on.
Come on!
I want those wagons protected.
I don't want anybody interfering with you.
You take all the men you need, and get it done.
All right, go.
- Yeah? - When is that azithromycin
- getting here? - Three days.
I don't have three days.
I can't exactly Fedex it, Gene.
We've already lost a dozen.
I got my men laid up in there too.
I might lose them. I might lose the whole town.
Look, I know how you feel about me.
Frankly, I feel the same way about you,
but like it or not, we're in this together.
- We have to get down there. - And how we gonna do that?
We can't exactly show our faces.
If this is what I think it is, we can't just sit here.
Well, nobody knows the kid. I say we send him.
Yeah, hell no.
I'm not walking into plague-ville, but thank you.
None of you are going. It's my father, my daughter.
- Rachel. - I have to.
I'm going.
She's in.
You people are nuts.
Thank God.
So this is an outbreak?
Yeah.
- How bad? - It's bad.
And it's just getting started. I could use your help.
Where's Aaron?
Rachel Matheson.
This is quite the surprise.
Where have you been, Rachel?
And tell me, where's Miles? Or Aaron Pittman?
I came alone. I have no idea where they are.
That so?
You want to stop this thing? I need her help.
We're all in this together. Right?
Isn't that what you said?
Fine. But when this is over,
you and I are gonna have a little chat.
- Well? - It's your husband, all right.
He's got Jason, under suspicion of breaking into his office.
- Where? - I don't know.
If the boy breaks, he'll tell them everything...
about us.
I don't care about any of that, Tom.
He's our son, and we've got to find out
where he is and get him out.
It's your husband doing it. You're the best chance we got.
Don't worry, I'll find some food.
If you don't soon, we're gonna lose him, Tom.
I-I didn't mean to startle you. I don't mean any harm.
My son, he's sick.
He's starving.
We only got enough for ourselves.
People used to help people.
They used to.
Hand it over! Just hand it over.
Okay, hold on. Easy.
No, no, you get back! Get back! Get back!
You look like hell, dad.
When was the last time you slept?
I'll sleep later.
So you're saying this is typhus?
Because the patients aren't responding to the fluids
- the way they should. - Symptoms match,
but it's not spreading the way it should either.
What do you think's going on?
I don't know.
If I had time to run a test or do anything--
We're losing people by the hour.
This is--
Dad?
This is the way I lost your mother.
It's okay. We'll fix this.
We'll figure it out.
Grace?
Aaron?
Grace left us a "Dear John."
I guess when she said she wanted to be alone, she wasn't k--
You have to face it, Aaron.
What are you, the nano?
You have to face it.
You can do anything you want to me, okay?
But you do not get to look like her.
Have you ever been to Lubbock, Texas?
Has the world's largest concrete cowboy.
I have questions.
Where did you go?
I don't go anywhere.
I'm everywhere, in all things.
You left me. You let Cynthia die.
All of your questions will be answered in Lubbock, Texas.
I'm not going on some wild-goose chase.
Why should I do anything you say?
If you don't,
you and Priscilla will be in danger.
From who? From you?
Aaron?
Who did you see?
Watch the door.
When you got 'em, you come and get me,
whatever I'm doing, okay?
So I ran some blood tests.
And?
If I had proper equipment, I would know a lot more,
but what I do know,
this is not a naturally occurring typhus.
The proteins were chemically tagged.
This stuff was made in a lab.
What are you saying?
I think the patriots started this outbreak on purpose.
The patriots are behind all this?
As crazy as these guys are, I can't believe
Truman would want to wipe out the town.
Well, you know them better than I do, you tell me.
How do we stop it?
I don't think they'd play with something this dangerous
without a cure on hand, a vaccine.
If they had a vaccine--
And that's a big if--
I think I know where they'd keep it.
But how do we get to it?
They're watching every move we make.
We send a message.
There it is.
Let me reiterate-- screw both of you,
- with something pointy. - Kid, we're desperate.
So you want us to raid their bunker
to pick up some meds that might not even be there?
And what part of "Desperate" don't you understand?
This outbreak is serious, kid.
I get it, believe me.
Back in Mexico, I saw the bubonic plague
sweep through, we still with a classic, right?
Well, I've seen it from the front row,
up close and personal, and I'm not about to walk back into that
because some whack-job blonde tells me to.
- Okay, Connor-- - No.
Sorry, but it's not my problem.
I need a word with you, alone.
I'm not asking.
Look, kid, we've all got our sad stories,
but you got to bury that deep and play ball.
And why's that?
I get it, all right?
I'm with you. Rachel is a boatload of crazy.
But for some reason, Miles really loves her,
and him, we need to keep on our side.
- For what? - Everything we spoke about.
Getting the republic back, that's what you want, right?
Well, trust me, we need his help to do it.
You understand?
Do you?
Good.
Don't forget we're having lunch
at the Colonel's tomorrow.
Rebecca?
What is it?
I, um, just been having some nightmares.
Why? What's wrong?
Well, someone broke into your office,
which is in the next room,
and what if I was here?
But you weren't.
I just-- I would feel safer
if I knew that you caught him.
You know I can't talk about that.
Please, just this once.
Did you find him? Is he dead?
We're questioning him.
Where are you holding him?
Why do you care where we're holding him?
I just wanna make sure that he's not getting out.
He's not getting out.
You're safe.
Trust me.
I got one job: Keep that boy alive,
and I can't even do that.
You know, we are going about this all wrong, Tom.
That's the problem.
What do you mean?
You are a strong man, Tom.
But there are a lot of guys who are stronger.
They're a dime a dozen.
But see...
There's nobody smarter than you.
And smart--that's rare.
We need to start using our strengths.
Damn it.
I thought you said this was their bat cave.
Evidently, not anymore.
So no meds?
This is bad, right?
- Sterilize these. - Yes, ma'am.
Thanks.
Incoming.
We got incoming.
All right, guys, clear out of the way.
Right down here. In here, right here.
- Down here. - Yeah, feet first.
- Down here, careful. - Feet first.
Easy with her head, easy.
Charlie, blood pressure.
Okay, on it.
What is it?
I think I know what they're doing.
They're not targeting the whole town,
just certain people.
- Sorry? - The virus isn't behaving.
It's not spreading the way that it should,
probably because it's not even communicable.
They're targeting certain individuals.
They're-- they're poisoning them.
They're using the outbreak as cover.
What? How?
I don't know. The water, maybe, the food--
All right, who are they after?
Well, look at our patients.
There's Dave Franklin, he's bipolar.
There's Pete Thompson, he's epileptic.
There's Mary Kern, she's an alcoholic.
They're weeding out the people
that they think are undesirable.
It's not an outbreak, dad,
it's--it's a culling.
They're trying to... make the town pure.
Dad?
Dad!
Dad, hey. Can you hear me?
Dad?
The saline drips need filling.
Beds two and nine are empty.
And get a blood pressure reading on Kathleen.
Come on, come on.
Don't look at me like that.
I still got work to do.
Grandpa, how did they dose you?
I don't know.
Gene,
I can't tell you how sorry I am to see you sick.
If anybody's gonna make it through this thing,
you will.
I appreciate that, Ed.
You need to stop worrying.
You don't comfort us. We comfort you.
Did Miles get those meds yet?
No, it wasn't there.
Thanks, that's very comforting.
What the hell are we gonna do?
Well, I tell you what we're gonna do.
So he's in Kenilworth prison.
I won't be able to just walk in.
My husband could walk you in.
We're having lunch today
with colonel Henderson and his wife.
At their house, Prospect Street.
Just the four of you?
There's a back door off the kitchen.
I'll leave it unlocked, you get in,
take care of the colonel and his wife,
and then we'll have a little chat with Doyle.
If we do this,
there's no going back.
I don't care about the patriots or any of it, Tom.
All I care about is getting our son out alive.
You know me, Tom.
I'll do whatever it takes.
Hello?
Oh, I didn't think I was gonna find anyone out here.
I thought I was a goner.
That so?
I haven't eaten in two days.
We have plenty of food.
Yeah.
Well, what are you offering in return?
What?
I didn't know you had it in you.
I could say the same about you.
Rachel.
What are you doing out here?
Just out for a walk.
Well, I can't help but notice there's no one around.
How about we have that chat and you tell me where Miles is?
I can do that.
He's right behind you.
Tell Gene good plan.
How's he holding up?
He doesn't have much time. Hurry.
- Please, will you just stop? - For the last time,
- I am not going. - Okay, but to be clear,
it did say we were in "Danger" unless
we go to Lubbock, Texas.
All the more reason not to go.
Whatever it wants could be bad,
we don't know.
It's all the more reason to do what it says.
You know, they're kinda-- you know, they're everywhere.
I'm not scared of it.
Aaron, look, just come with me.
No, I have to do this.
And you're kind of a part of this too,
so come with me.
Because it wants me to.
Because I want you to.
I can't face this alone.
I'm sorry.
Good-bye.
Priscilla.
I, uh, think you better come with me.
Not so easy to kill, am I?
Gene's infected.
You infected him.
You got it all wrong.
Where's the antidote?
Gene got sick
trying to save the good people of Willoughby.
If he dies, he'll die a hero.
Taking it out on me won't do any good.
I'm just trying to help.
- This is bigger than all of us. - You are boring.
This is fresh-squeezed typhus.
Rachel distilled some for you.
Enjoy.
What did you do?
I only have one question, Ed,
and I'd say quite literally your life depends on the answer.
Where's the antidote?
You must think I'm stupid.
If I tell you where it is,
you'll just kill me and keep it for yourselves.
He's not wrong.
Well, then you're gonna take us to it.
Gotta admit there's a certain kind of poetry to this.
What are you talking about?
During the Cholera outbreak...
Your grandma, your mother
just jumped right in to help.
And some of the sick were kids.
She'd rock 'em to sleep.
Sing Beatles songs to 'em.
I told her, "Don't get too close."
But you know her.
She said, "Gene,
you'd have to beat me away with a stick."
That's how she caught it.
I'm just glad I get to see her again.
You're not going anywhere.
Honestly...
a rest doesn't sound so bad right--
No.
You don't get to quit fighting.
I won't let you.
You're a real stubborn pain in the ass.
Well, I come by it honestly.
Hey, Tom.
How'd you like some lunch?
Come on, Tom.
You don't want to share a nice meal with your wife?
Put the gun down, or I kill her.
Come on.
Very good.
I don't know what it is that you think you know, sir--
You gonna try to talk your way out of this?
Oh, man, you got a pair of low-hanging fruit on you.
I'll give you that.
For the record, your son...
never said a word.
Tough kid.
But the two of you--
the way you're always looking at her?
I mean, I get it. She's beautiful.
And a real wildcat in the sack. Am I right?
And, oh, yeah, the way she went
through my office in the middle of the night
and the secret meetings between the two of you.
You don't think I'd keep a tail on her, Tom?
Give me some credit.
Give me back my son.
What makes you think he's still alive?
I want you to know...
I really loved you.
That wasn't an act.
What happens now?
Oh, we are going to have
a nice, long series of conversations...
Separately.
So I suggest you two say good-bye
because you're never going to see each other again.
- Take them. - No.
- Tom! - No!
- No, tom, no! - Julia!
- Tom! - No!
You know what you're supposed to do?
Yeah, yeah, I got it.
Don't screw this up.
I won't.
Okay.
Dad!
Okay, just relax.
Okay, okay.
Okay, okay, okay.
Just want you clear.
You even think about making a move,
your brains hit the dirt before you finish the thought.
My men are pretty fast.
I'm faster.
Back away.
Move.
It's in the back.
Let me take mine.
After you get me back out of town.
Freeze!
