I've got Isaac.
He's made contact--
female, early 20s.
They're on the move.
The girl seems to be leading.
Gary, can you get me
an image?
Yeah, okay, I got it.
See the way she's moving?
She's an Alpha, too.
She's processing
her environment somehow.
Isaac Hale's
an assassin, right?
My guess is
she's his tracker.
She finds the target,
and our man closes the deal.
I don't get it.
Sullivan said that
Red Flag leaders
have been vanishing
off the grid all week.
Something's up.
Well, he's our only lead.
So keep an eye on him.
But don't engage.
Hey, hey, there's a pawnshop.
We can sell it here.
No, no, these places
rip you off.
Baby, you're hurting.
We need the money.
No, Will.
Come on, let's go.
Let's go.
You have something of mine.
You can *** off.
No, baby, don't.
Go, go, come on!
Don't make me kill you.
It makes me tired,
and then I get cranky.
He found his target.
- Where?
- Down the alley!
Left! Go left!
Come on!
Will!
Get off him.
I know you're a couple
of brain-dead junkies,
but for once, be smart.
Give it back.
He said *** off.
Your fault.
Cover's blown.
We were supposed
to be following him.
Will?
You killed him.
Danielle.
No.
Nina!
Push her.
Make her come with us.
Dani!
Rachel, go after Isaac.
It's okay.
It's okay.
Cameron,
follow Isaac.
I-I-I have to go
after that girl.
What's so special
about the girl?
She's my daughter.

I knew Rosen had a daughter
and they didn't get along,
but he never told me
she was an Alpha.
She just made you cry?
It just came out of nowhere?
When she touched me, I felt
like I lost my best friend.
It's like she can force people
to feel whatever she wants.
Sure as hell didn't seem
too happy to see Rosen.
Man, if my kid ever
looked at me that way
- I lost him.
- Damn it.
You lost someone?
Yeah, I'm not the one
who flew in there
like Jackie Chan
and blew our cover.
Hey, I'm not sure
if you noticed,
but he was killing people.
Gary, you got anything?
Yeah, Danielle Sophia Rosen.
She ran away from home at 17,
and she was arrested--
No, look,
not about Rosen's daughter,
about Isaac Hale.
No, I lost him
when Rachel did.
But--but don't worry.
I'm multitasking.
We should circle
the neighborhood,
see if Rachel
can track his scent.
Okay. Okay.
Just don't drive
by that Thai place, okay?
It totally kills
my sense of smell.
Hello?
Where is everybody?
Who's Manning the fort?
It's not a fort, Bill.
That's a bad metaphor.
Forts have ramparts
and cannons.
We have desks and carpet.
You're sitting
in the boss' chair?
What, are you in charge now?
Where is everybody?
Yeah, Bill, I am in charge
when no one else is here.
What are you doing here anyway?
You're sick.
You should be resting--
six more days,
not including the weekend.
I'm fine.
The doctor, uh, said that
that infarction actually
normalized me, so
Infar--
Yeah, no more overdrive, no
more under-drive--I'm optimal.
So that rest was
only precautionary.
- Bill, Bill.
- Yeah?
Infarction.
Come on.
Gary, not now.
Listen--
Fart.
- Listen, we've got to focus.
- I'm being immature.
You know we've been trying
to figure out
why the Red Flag leadership has
been off the grid, right?
Yeah, it's an ongoing
investigation.
And you're interrupting it.
No, I'm laying at home, right,
sitting on my ***,
and I'm thinking I may actually
have a possible lead.
You know how
that invisible girl, Griffin,
said I need to find out who or
what Stanton Parish was, right?
Yeah, well, go and look it up
on your computer, Bill.
It's easy.
Use a search engine.
Gary, listen to me,
I already tried that.
I couldn't find anything,
all right?
Don't put your fingers
in my stream.
Then I got to thinking.
Why did Red Flag try so hard
to erase our M.K. Ultra files?
What if the secret
to Stanton Parish
is on Dr. Rosen's cloud drive?
Bill, you want me to look
through the cloud drive?
Uh, yeah, exactly what--
Well, I can't.
I'm already multitasking.
No, Gary,
you can do it all, Gary.
I'm looking for Isaac
and I'm tracking Dani.
Who the hell is Dani?
There's Dani.
Dr. Rosen,
I got your daughter.
Can I have my key?
She's at the Baltimore Hotel.
That's a no-star hotel.
The only review says,
"Don't stay here."
Dani!
Danielle.
Danielle, are you in there?
Danielle.
Dani, if you're in there,
please open the door.
I thought
I was hallucinating.
You're not
As--as far as I can tell.
I don't want you here.
Well,
I-I don't want you here.
I-I want you
to come with me.
No.
That's nice, Dad.
Dani
Dani, you're in pain.
Just leave me alone.
I know you're always hurting
after you use your ability.
I don't care.
Will you please
just let me help you?
Oh, what are you
gonna do--
give me another
therapy session?
Dani, run.
Run. Come on.
Get off of me!
Dani
Dani!
Come on.
Come on.
Two for one.
Nobody had to die.
You just had
to give them back.
Dani, will you sit down
for a second, please?
I'd like to check
your vitals.
Please, Dad,
I am not gonna make you cry
At least
not from my ability.
So what are you on now--
painkillers again or what?
Come on, don't tell me we're
gonna have an intervention.
Just trying to help.
Not bad.
So what is it?
Lamotrigine.
Lamotrigine?
That's an anticonvulsant,
among other things.
Yeah, I know.
I mean, it's--
it's not what I'm on,
but it's what works best
Better than the Ritalin
you used to give me,
even better than
the Trazadone,
and better than the Oxycontin,
which, uh, by the way,
I did take
a few hours ago.
Just in case
you were gonna ask me
to give you
a urine sample next, so
Okay, okay. Fine.
Lamotrigine.
Look, why don't you just
write me a prescription,
put it on your insurance, and
I'll be out of your life again.
Don't think so.
I'm, uh, sorry
about that boy.
Oh, well,
he was hardly a boy.
He was 34 years old.
Dani, I need to know
why that man was chasing you.
Finally there's
the real question.
His name was Isaac Hale.
He killed people for a living.
He was part of a group
called Red Flag.
Red Flag--is that
one of your punk bands?
You know, Dani,
there are no rules
that say you can't tell
the truth every once in a while.
There it is.
That's what I remember--
that disapproving look.
Sorry to interrupt.
Lee?
He's all yours.
We have a time--
tomorrow morning, 7:00 a.m.
Wait a minute. What exactly
are we talking about here?
We've been monitoring
Red Flag's communications
ever since their leaders
started dropping off the grid.
We don't know what
they're planning or where,
but we have a timeline now,
so we are on the clock.
Lee?
Kathy, I don't think
you understand.
The young woman
in my office--
Yeah, I know
she's your daughter.
That's why I'm not questioning
why you killed our best lead.
But you did.
And now I need you to set aside
your family business--
Red Flag wanted something
from my daughter,
so badly that they were willing
to kill her for it.
If your daughter can help us
with this case, great.
But if not,
you're a therapist.
Compartmentalize.
I know
you're concerned, honey.
But I wouldn't have come to work
if I wasn't feeling better.
All right?
You know that about me.
I don't need the--
- Bill, I found it.
- I don't need the pills, babe.
I'm at work. I'm busy, okay?
- Bill, what--
you're drinking pills.
Bill, come on, I found it.
You asked me to do this.
Babe, I got to go. I'll go--
yes, I'll take it easy.
Yeah, you found who?
Stanton Parish--
he was a who.
And you were right--
he was on the cloud drive.
So he's a scientist
who died in 1974.
Yeah, and he worked for
the government, for M.K. Ultra.
And before he died,
he wrote this, Bill.
It's a manifesto
about Alphas.
And back then, they weren't
even called Alphas.
All right, so, "Neuro-dominant
humanity represents
"the greatest potential
advancement for civilization
"since man first
walked upright,
"which is why those
who fear change
"will inevitably seek
to eliminate us."
The--
he was an Alpha?
Yeah, and he was
a good writer.
Anna writes stuff like this.
Stanton Parish is
Red Flag's favorite dead author?
No, invisible girl
made it sound like this guy was
the key to everything.
So there's
got to be more, Gary.
- Bill, look how much I printed.
- No, I know, this is a lot.
But there's got to be more.
Please keep digging.
Yeah, I-I I don't think
I like hard work.
Dani, I need you to tell me
the truth about what happened.
We don't have time
for games.
Of course we don't have
time for games.
We never had time for games.
There's blood tests,
psych tests,
E.E.G.s, sure,
but games?
Why don't you just stick some
electrodes to my forehead, Dad?
Just for old times' sake,
tell me how I'm feeling.
- That was 15 years ago--
- So I should be over it?
I mean, is that
what you're saying?
You're in serious trouble,
Danielle.
You need to calm down,
tell me what happened,
so I can help you.
So you want to help.
You know what Will would do
when I was upset?
Bring me flowers
Get me whatever drug I needed,
even if he had to steal it.
Then again,
he loved me, so
Well, I love you, too.
You want to know
what Red Flag was after?
These.
I took 'em from some guy
at a meeting.
I thought
they were rubies.
But, uh, it turns out
they're just glass.
Hands up.
Ow.
I don't like--
Ow.
Anna.
It's good to see you.
You always say
that we can't meet up.
But I-I wanted
to see you again.
It's good to see you.
It has all your sounds
on there.
That's very cool, Anna.
I've missed
our conversations.
Yeah, I've missed them, too.
And doctor--
oh.
Okay.
I wish you were here
for another reason.
That quote
you sent me, Gary
Oh, yeah.
"Society's acceptance is
a prison disguised as a palace."
Where did you find that?
It's Stanton Parish.
Is he your favorite
writer, Anna?
Gary, Stanton Parish
is a very dangerous man.
You shouldn't be asking
questions about him.
Anna you said "is."
Stanton Parish is dead.
He died 30 years ago.
He--he's Red Flag's
favorite dead author.
You need to go now, Gary.
Anna, why--
why do I have to go now?
I just got here.
Why do I--Anna, Anna,
don't make me go.
It was difficult for me
to come and see you.
Anna, I had to be sneaky.
Ow.
Anna.
Dani you did the right thing
giving us the necklace.
Thank you.
We should talk.
Will you sit down, please.
- The past is past, okay?- Okay.
And I-I think you'll find that
I'm a pretty different person
than I was 15 years ago.
Are you?
To me, you seem to be pretty
much exactly the same
Except now you have a whole team
of people to play with.
Don't talk
about what you don't know.
You have no idea
what's going on.
Dad, there are
different kinds of lying.
You can tell people
what they want to hear.
You can, uh, pretend
that you care.
And then there's
outright manipulation.
And when have I ever
manipulated you?
"Camel mealie."
Chamomile tea?
Whenever mom
would get angry at you
for locking yourself in a room
with your lab work,
you would come to me
and say,
"Dani, mommy's sad."
"Please bring her
a cup of 'camel mealie' tea."
Right, no, I remember.
But, Dani, that's not--
So I would bring her the tea,
and I would sit on her lap,
and I would stroke her arm,
and she'd feel better.
Empathic contagion, right?
Isn't that what you call it?
All right, that's right.
Well, that was me.
I was mommy's little helper.
But, uh, you know, that's not
exactly the way it happened.
And that was before I knew
about your ability.
You're right, Dad.
you're always right
Except with the tea,
I did that
until mom and I moved out
when I was 12.
You knew what I could do
when I was nine.
Hey, Doc.
Doc, come here.
Listen
You okay?
Yeah, it was a mistake
to bring my daughter here.
We have 12 hours to figure out
what Red Flag is up to.
No, no, listen to me, Doc--
That's what we should be
working on.
Doc, listen to me.
Listen to me.
We haven't
cracked it yet,
but Gary and I just found
something that is huge.
You need
to see it now.
All right.
So we looked for the name,
but all we found was
a book by a dead guy.
And then when I asked Anna about
it, she just lied to me again.
Gary, you spoke with Anna?
I expressly told you
not to do that.
Doc, I told him
the same thing, okay?
But he's his own man now.
Now, just give him a minute.
Yeah, yeah,
give me a minute.
I'm my own man.
Thanks, Bill.
So Anna's a good liar,
not like me.
But--but I still caught her,
because she said "is"
instead of "was."
Stanton Parish
isn't a dead writer.
- He's alive.
- Bill, please
So I did another search,
but not by name,
by face, and that's--
that's the creepy part
Bill was talking about.
There, he was a scientist
in Russia
for their M.K. Ultra program--
same face, same man.
So Stanton Parrish
was a double agent.
No, no, no, Dr. Rosen,
it's a puzzle.
You have to look
at all the pieces.
It's a metaphor.
Okay. Okay.
Just--
Same face.
Stanton Parish.
Stanton Parish.
Stanton Parish.
Wait. This is
from the Civil War.
Yeah, it's old.
He was about
Same guy 100 years later
when he worked for M.K. Ultra.
Is this an Alpha
who doesn't age?
Anna says
that he's dangerous.
She's scared of him,
and Anna's not scared of anyone.
And there's this.
He wrote this--
the manifesto.
Bill says it's
the Red Flag playbook.
An Alpha this powerful
and we knew nothing about him?
Well, that's why they were
trying to erase our files--
to keep Parish hidden.
Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss.
I got it.
The rubies--
I figured it out.
These may seem like junk,
but this
is laboratory-grown silicon,
more densely organized than
anything I have ever seen.
It is the perfect
storage medium.
So I decided to
Play around.
And then in this
Inside the pendant,
I discovered this.
- It's a jump drive.
- Voila.
- Gary, can you?
- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'll do this.
There.
Wait a minute.
That's--that's
encoded data, right?
So, Gary, isn't that
Anna's language?
Yeah, that's what Anna does.
She sends messages.
Like the D.O.T. numbers
on the truck they blew up,
the order to assassinate
Dr. Rosen
No, no, she regrets that.
She said that
that's regrettable.
We'll argue
about that later, okay?
Can you translate this?
Yeah.
Those are GPS coordinates.
Yeah, it leads
to Highland Mills.
That's not far from here--
It's a map.
Directions.
No, no, it's an invitation.
You see right here?
There's a time, 7:00 a.m.,
like Sullivan said,
tomorrow morning.
All right, so that's
a time and date for a meeting.
- What's that underneath?
- That part's sneaky.
It's even sneakier
than Anna's code.
So, what'd I steal?
Oh, okay, no, no, no.
I've got it.
It's a quote--
here, at the bottom.
"We are not the problem.
We are the solution."
It's from that book,
A Call to Change.
It's more
than a quote, Gary.
It's a signature
from the leader of Red Flag,
Stanton Parish.
He's called this meeting.
We confirmed the intel
you gave us.
Nice work on that.
The target--an old abandoned
brick factory.
We're bringing in tactical
teams, special equipment,
everything
we can throw at them.
You're positive
this supposed leader of theirs
is going to be there?
Well, he called the meeting.
I suppose he'll be there.
And Anna's
gonna be there, too.
And you can't hurt her.
She--she's my friend.
And she can't protect herself.
Our first move will be
tear gas and nonlethal weapons.
But let me be clear.
These terrorists
will be neutralized.
Yes, Senator?
Gary,
maybe you should go home.
No, I'm not going home.
Anna's gonna be there,
and I'm gonna be there.
I'm part of the team.
Okay, well, I'll join in
with tactical, do what I can.
And, uh, I'll protect Anna
if it's possible.
Doc, you'll stay outside and
coordinate with Rachel and Gary.
I'm gonna go in
with Hicks and Nina.
Bill, you can go in,
but only as an agent.
It's too early to put that kind
of stress on your heart.
This is Red Flag versus us.
This is endgame.
I'm in.
Here you go, Doc.
It's time.
Hey.
Hey.
These guys
you're going after--
is it their fault
that Will's dead?
Yes, I believe it is.
Then I hope you get
all of 'em.
Rosy future
Something someone once said
that I wanted.
And he wasn't wrong.
What would that
even look like?
Dani
You were right.
About the tea.
I knew about your ability.
And so I used it.
I used you
to try to save a marriage
that I'd already ruined.
I-I-I don't know what
you expect me to say, Dad.
I don't expect you
to say anything.
You don't have to.
I just wanted you
to hear it.
No, I'm not coming home
tonight, Mom.
II can't tell you.
But my friends
need my help
All of my friends.
Yeah, I love you, too, Mom.
Mom, please, don't cry.
Listen,
Bill's gonna protect me.
He's my partner,
he--he's very strong.
One time
he pushed me over,
which was better
than taking a bullet.
I said don't cry.
Come on, time to saddle up.
Let's go.
Anna's here--
two bodyguards.
That makes over
Gary says that's the last car
heading this way,
as far as he can tell.
We have to hurry.
Dr. Ro--
Dr. Rosen.
Dr. Rosen, you should let me go
and talk to--
you should let me go
and talk to Anna,
'cause I could get them
to surrender.
I always get people to do
what I want to do,
'cause I-I wear them down.
Yeah, you do that, Gary.
Gary, this is
a very dangerous situation.
If you want to be here, you have
to do exactly as you're told.
Yep.
You look like
you belong here.
Once a marine
I thought you hated
the Marines.
It's kind of a love-hate.
Look, if anything
happens to me
Don't say it.
It's bad luck.
Still no sign of Parish?
Nothing--
he never showed
and neither have about
another dozen Red Flag leaders.
From what I can hear inside,
they are not happy about it.
I don't get it.
He calls the meeting.
He doesn't show?
It doesn't make sense.
He should--
- it's starting.
What are they saying?
Hiding like this
is only making things worse.
You don't get
to decide that.
Let her talk!
They're talking
about going public.
Going public?
Telling the world
the truth about Alphas.
Remember,
stick with your teams,
watch your fields of fire,
and give the gas time to work.
No one advances
until I say so.
Agent Sullivan, Kathy.
Wait, wait,
we--we can't do this.
Put some socks on, Lee,
your feet are getting cold.
No, will you bear with me
just--just for a moment?
The day before this meeting
was supposed to happen,
a Red Flag assassin leads us
right to my daughter,
who is carrying
an invitation,
which my team decodes
just in time for us to be here.
Now, what does that
sound like to you?
A setup.
So you think we're walking
into an ambush.
No, I think
we are the ambush.
Stanton Parish
gathered these people here.
He tips us off
to their location
just so that we'll do
exactly what we're doing.
Why would Stanton Parish
betray Red Flag?
According to you,
it's his organization.
Because Rachel just heard
the people inside talking.
They're talking
about coming out of the dark,
revealing their secrets.
- Going public?
- Yes.
Well, then it's a good thing
we're here, Lee.
No, Kathy, and I am betting
that's exactly
what Stanton Parish
wants you to feel.
You're playing right
into his hands.
You are betting,
you think.
A week ago, you didn't even know
that Stanton Parish existed.
And now apparently
you're in his head.
I don't have time
for your theories, Lee.
Do the people
in that building
belong to
a terrorist organization?
It's not that simple.
Really? Because I think
it's a yes or no question.
Are they Red Flag or not?
All right, I'm not saying
that they're all innocent--
Well, good. Then you haven't
lost your mind altogether.
Go! Get into
your positions now!
Oh, Rachel,
this is a mistake.
This is a big mistake.
Team one in position.
Team two on the move.
You're wearing a mask.
You can't push anyone.
- You should hang back.
- I'll be okay.
Team two in position.
Ready on your go, command.
Release the gas.
Federal agents. Surrender
and no one will get hurt.
Get out!
Run!
Command, team leader--
rounding up suspects.
No, no.
No! No!
- Dr. Rosen--
- Gary! Gary!
Gary, no!
Rachel, stay here.
Stay here.
Gary!
Anna!
Anna, I'm coming!
You're like me.
Better.
Gary!
Gary!
Whoa! Whoa!
Ah! No, no!
Gary.
Gary!
Sleep.
Gary!
Wait, Gary.
Man down! Man down!
Permission to open fire?
Copy that.
Return fire is authorized.
Return fire
is authorized.
Fire at will.
Anna! Anna!
Anna?
Anna!
Ah! Ah!
Anna!
Anna!
Anna.
Anna, it's okay.
Anna, come on.
I'll help carry you.
Anna
Anna, come on, I'll--
Anna. Anna.
Anna, come on.
Anna, get--
don't--no!
No!
No! No! No!
No! No! No!
No! No!
He's one of us.
Gary, Gary.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Anna!
People died.
Anna died.
And she shouldn't be dead.
And it--if I--
if I had a gas mask,
I probably
could have saved her.
Gary, you don't know that.
Yeah, well, you don't know
either--nobody knows.
And Dr. Rosen--
he doesn't know.
See, he pretends to know
everything,
but he doesn't.
I don't know
if I can keep doing this.
I don't think I'm the only one
who feels that way.
No, she's not.
We don't know
what we're doing.
And I'm not sure
if we ever did.
And right now
there is no "this."
No, Cameron, you're wrong.
This is a team.
And that hasn't changed.
What you've done you've done
for the right reasons,
under circumstances
that sometimes
were beyond
even our control.
You followed your instincts.
You followed your hearts.
You have nothing
to be ashamed of.
We have to stand on that.
Yeah, but
What about the fact
that every time we--
Lee.
Sorry, excuse me.
Could I talk to you
for a minute?
Yeah.
Is this where you explain all
about clouds and silver linings?
Not me.
Hey
This is still a win, Lee.
A win for who--
us or Stanton Parish?
If Parish exists,
we'll get him.
So you have whatever resources
you need.
Money, equipment--
it's yours.
You want another Alpha
on your team?
Pick one.
Pick five.
How would your daughter
like a job?
Can we please not talk
about my daughter?
Fair enough.
Look, I know you're not able
to see it right now,
but the raid on Highland Mills
was a success.
It crippled Red Flag.
We caught terrorists.
We stopped this Alpha situation
from being blown wide open.
And that is a huge victory
for you and your team.
Thank you.
And if you need proof,
the powers that be
would like your input
on how to move forward.
Closed-door session in D.C.
a week from today.
We look forward
to your thoughts.
They're calling it
a success, this raid,
but I'm not so sure,
which is par for the course
these days.
You know,
when I was little,
I, uh--well, I thought you knew
more about everything
than anyone else in the world.
And, um, I guess now
I see that
you don't know all the answers
to the questions,
and sometimes you don't
even know the questions.
Well, I guess that's part
of growing up--
realizing that your parents
have feet of clay.
Yeah, well,
to tell you the truth,
I like you better
this way.
Dani, what you've been
through--
what I've put you through--
it must have been
incredibly painful.
You can't even imagine, Dad.
No, I can't.
You know, I tend
to intellectualize everything,
approach everything
from an analytical standpoint,
but, um
You're not my patient.
You're my daughter.
I never really
understood emotionally
what it felt to--
to be you.
So, Danielle
I want you
to do your thing.
I don't think
that's a good idea.
I want to know.
I--
oh, I don't know
what to say.
Then it worked.
Dr. Rosen?
I'm Stanton Parish.
Your daughter's fine.
Nothing to worry about.
I came alone.
So, tell me, doctor,
how does it feel
to be living your dreams?
You've always wanted to be
on the cutting edge,
to make your mark in history.
You've achieved that.
By helping you
purge Red Flag
of everyone not in lockstep
with your plans?
You're upset about that.
Now, be honest.
Secrecy serves us all.
You want to protect
your team.
Government wouldn't know what
to do if this went public.
And for now
I operate best in the dark.
Obviously not everyone
in Red Flag agrees with you.
Hmm, troublemakers.
You and I--
we put an end to them.
That coldness,
that complete lack of empathy--
it's just what I expected
your downside to be.
So what else?
You don't age.
You probably
don't even get sick.
I doubt you even sleep.
Think beyond Alpha.
I have complete
control of my mind--
perfect brain-body connection.
At the cost
of your humanity.
I am humanity
What humanity will become.
The future belongs
to people like me,
and certainly we can agree
on that.
Hey, you can stop
trying to manipulate me
into feeling
that we share an agenda,
some kind of connection.
I'm every bit as good
at that as you.
Oh, but we do
have a connection.
That we both use people?
But for completely
different ends.
No, we don't share
a damn thing.
You advocate
bloodshed and war.
War
It's inevitable,
in two years, maybe three--
nothing that you or I
can do to stop that.
You'll forgive me
if I try.
You're wasting
your talents, Lee.
You're so close
to understanding it all.
The answers to the questions
you've been asking
ever since you realized
that your daughter
was different.
The biology of Alphas
The great mystery
of the human brain
I can get you there.
And in return?
I have so many plans
on the verge of fruition.
You can help with that.
People die
because of your plans.
I've helped you enough.
Think about it.
You'll come around.
When I first discovered
the Alpha phenomenon,
I was just a doctor treating
a group of remarkable patients.
Since then,
events have unfolded
in ways that no one
could have predicted,
starting with the emergence
of Red Flag.
Here, straight
from Klauswerks.
Thanks, Gary.
Hey, and don't forget
to shave, all right?
- It is Congress, after all.
- Oh, Rachel.
Red Flag, is a radical
Alpha organization
which is willing
to do anything,
even commit ***,
to advance its cause.
Cameron, Dani's at my house.
Will you look in on her
from time to time?
Yeah, I'll keep her safe.
Now, the government's response
to their actions
has been understandably swift
and aggressive
Good luck.
Come here.
Gathering intelligence,
deploying tactical units,
and even using
my own covert team of Alphas.
But despite all efforts,
the situation has become
increasingly unstable,
culminating with the incident
at Highland Mills.
Those responsible
for the group's violent ideology
are still out there.
Indeed, their founder
and leader,
Stanton Parish,
is still at large.
I, uh, understand
your concern, Dr. Rosen.
And we're willing
to provide you
with as many tactical teams
as you need.
I believe that Binghamton
is nowhere near capacity.
Am I right?
- Yes, uh, Binghamton--
I was coming to that.
A clandestine prison hospital.
Where Alphas are
confined and subjected
to experiments,
without any respect paid
to their civil rights
or their humanity.
Binghamton is not the answer.
Binghamton
is part of the problem.
Red Flag and the government's
Alpha program
are two sides
of the same coin.
They both rely,
all too frequently,
on violence and secrecy,
abuses that can only thrive
in the dark
Son of a *** is actually
gonna go through with this.
Thank you, Dr. Rosen.
That's very interesting.
Thank you for your time.
Which is precisely
what their leader,
Stanton Parish, wants--
darkness.
And by our keeping
the Alpha phenomenon a secret,
we are only following
a path--
his path, which I believe
can only lead to a war.
So what I am advocating,
Senator,
is not more money
or more guns
or even a bigger prison.
I am calling for light,
for transparency,
an end to secrets.
And so I say
to all of you here
and to all of you watching,
Alphas exist.
They are among us.
They are our friends
and our spouses.
They are our sons
and daughters.
Our neighbors, our co-workers.
This just got complicated.
They are indeed us,
and they are not going away.
Order!
This is what
we have been hiding.
Turn his microphone off,
and I don't want this
on the record!
This is what
we have been hiding.
- I warned you.
- Yes.
Yes, you did.
Sharing this truth
may make things messier,
more complicated.
But it will hold both sides
accountable for their actions.
And it will also prevent
this war
Security!
Stanton Parish
so badly wants.
And by sharing this truth,
it's time for everyone
Hurry up, security,
get this man out of here!
To open their eyes,
to open their minds,
and to open their--
