We're not a threat.
We're salvation.
The world
will have to deal with us.
Previously on the 4400
as far as
this department knew,
maia wasn't having
visions anymore.
She was keeping them
secret from me
and writing everything
down in a diary.
It's a subpoena.
What do they want?
Your diary.
Don't reveal
your healing ability,
because if you heal
one of them,
you're going
to have to heal them all.
One day,
all of this will be yours.
The paperwork's been drawn up.
The lawyers know what to do.
Everything's in place.
He had a vision
to save the future,
and now he won't be here
to see us achieve it.
But we will achieve.
None of this
is real to me either.
This is where they altered us,
gave me the ability
to create the world
we've been living in
for the last eight years.
I love you, thomas.
So, let me see
if i've got this, um, straight.
You two met,
fell in love,
and spent eight years
together
in some kind of
alternate reality,
and now you're here,
with eight years of love
and marriage under your belts,
in what to us was
no time at all.
Yeah, that
that about sums it up.
Yeah.
I'll play along.
But if you two start
i'm so out of here.
I told you
he'd try, thomas.
How'd you know that?
Well, you might be meeting me
for the first time,
but i know all about you.
You're smart,
your favorite writer
is alan moore,
and your favorite meal
is meatloaf.
But i can't be
exactly the same.
You said there was no 4400,
so that means
no coma, no time lost
no major problems.
That's right.
You were happy.
Successful.
Meaning what?
Nothing.
We used to talk about
medical school, remember?
Over there,
you went to stanford.
How'd i do?
You graduated
with honors.
You became
a neurologist.
Must have made you proud.
I'm always proud of you.
Right, but "dr.
Kyle baldwin"
and that world
you were vacationing in,
it came from your mind,
right?
Actually, it was my mind.
Right,
but you created it
using his memories.
Kyle, i'm just as proud
of what
you've accomplished here.
Prouder.
Hey.
You want to know why
all lawyers are jerks?
Because they spend
a lifetime
reading this crap.
What kind of crap,
specifically?
I'm a pretty good
interpreter.
I have 24 hours
to turn maia's diary over
to ntac,
and not one legal option
to get out of it.
What are you going to do?
Well, what ntac wants,
ntac gets,
but i have a 9-year-old
daughter at home
who's counting on me
to protect her.
Any way i can help?
Yeah, you can slap me
upside the head
for ever mentioning the diary
in the first place.
It didn't save collier's life,
and now it's making mine hell.
How about i just make
some fresh coffee instead?
Oh thanks.
Yeah.
Do you think
they'll find
the man
who did it?
If, by "they,"
you mean "thomas,"
then yeah, probably.
My dad always gets
his man.
You heading out?
Yes, i have to keep
reminding myself
i don't live here
anymore.
Look, kyle,
your father and i
love each other.
That's great.
There's not enough love
in the world.
But i just met you.
Give me a few days
before i start
calling you "mom," okay?
You've got
one of those already.
I'll settle for being
a good friend
and i'll keep bribing you
with meatloaf
until you give in.
Oh
* so long ago, another life *
* i can feel your heart beat *
* it's not a dream
remember us *
* i can see it in your eyes *
* we'll find our place in time *
* our place in time
beyond the sun *
* we'll find our place in time *
* our place in time
to call our own *
Hello, mr.
Ross.
Did you have
a good flight?
Yes.
Thanks.
Now, would you like me
to show you around,
or do you want
to get some rest?
Neither.
Take me
to mr.
Farrell.
Yes, sir.
Right this way.
They've
been waiting.
Three days.
Tell publicity
i'm not sure yet.
They're saying
we're past our deadline.
We have to release
this press statement.
This is supposed to be coming
from me?
I don't even understand
half of what it says.
It doesn't sound
like me, lucy.
So change it.
You're the boss.
Oh, and legal
needs signatures now,
or no one gets paid,
including legal.
I can only do one thing
at a time.
So let's start
with the statement.
Why don't you dictate
something to me?
No press statement.
If the press wants to know
what mr.
Farrell
is thinking,
they can watch
60 minutes
along with the rest of america.
I've already booked
an exclusive interview
with our new face
of the 4400.
That's all for now.
Thanks.
I'm sorry to just jump in
like that.
I thought you could use a hand.
Matthew ross.
Yes.
Yeah.
What are you doing
in seattle?
I go
where i'm needed.
You've come
to the right place.
It's no coincidence, shawn.
Jordan made it clear
that, in the event of his death,
i was to step up,
front and center,
to help you out.
Well, another in a long line
of plans
that jordan neglected
to share with me.
Huh.
But i'm glad
you're here.
Jordan talked about you a lot
you're going to need
to hire yourself a new lobbyist.
I'm moving to the home office
for the time being.
Pick any office you want.
You start right away.
Uh, these letters?
Everyone knows i can heal now.
Jordan had every intention
of revealing
your healing ability
to the public,
but he was planning on doing it
in stages.
We don't have
that luxury anymore.
We'll deal with it.
I can't go outside anymore.
There's sick people.
The press,
they follow me everywhere.
And they will
for the rest of your life.
The ground just shifted
under your feet.
You either find your balance,
or you fall on your ***.
This center
is the new lourdes.
Nobody's going to be calling us
a "cult" anymore.
We're turning away people
faster than we can sign them up.
In 10 years,
this movement's going to be
one of the dominant faiths
on the planet.
Stop.
I'm glad things are going
so well, i am,
but a week ago,
i was just some guy trying
to beat the last level of doom.
I wasn't the pope then,
and i'm not the pope now.
Yes, you are,
and you need to start
getting used to it.
The fbi is spearheading
the hunt for the man
who killed jordan collier.
Oh, but we're still in the game,
and ntac is making this collar.
I'm not having someone else
clean up our mess for us.
Then we'd better get moving.
We all know
there's an expiration date
on these manhunts.
Trail starts getting cold
after 48 hours.
I want another look at employee
sign-in sheets
for every office building
and parking garage
within a 10-block radius
of the center.
We've already cross-examined
everyone on those books.
Then we have to look
off the books.
This guy shot a public figure
in broad daylight.
There has to be an eyewitness.
And so far, tom, the only one
who has seen this killer
is you.
Loser.
Pathetic loser.
Sweetie, whatever you do,
never, ever gamble.
It's wrong
and it's stupid.
Then why do you do it?
Because,
unlike your mommy,
your aunt april doesn't
have a steady income.
She's an artist,
and artists
always need cash,
which is where the "stupid" part
comes in,
because i always lose.
So this whole
"see the future" thing,
it doesn't just apply
to earth-shattering events, huh?
Not always.
So, if i were to ask you
which card
that one.
I'll take this one right here.
Thanks.
Baby girl
you are my new lucky charm.
I'm pulling you off
the collier case.
What are you
talking about?
We still have half
that neighborhood to canvass.
It's going to have to wait.
At 10:37 a.
m.
,
pacific standard,
the federal emergency
management agency
sent in a task force
to granite pass, oregon,
population 273,
where there's been
an outbreak
of a lethal, highly contagious,
and as yet unidentified virus.
Airborne?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, likely.
Man-made?
Unknown.
What we do know is,
if you went to sleep
in granite pass last night,
chances are you're filling out
a body bag this morning.
There's only
one resident
that fema hasn't
accounted for yet.
Jean delynn baker,
age 30.
Returnee 0188.
Disappeared in '99.
Divorced.
No kids.
Psych profile says
she's a loner.
Things have been
pretty grim for her
since she got back.
Hasn't been able
to hold down a job.
She was unemployed
four times
in the last year.
And now she's the only resident
of granite pass, oregon
who can't be
accounted for.
So we've got two possibilities.
Either she's immune
to this virus,
in which case we could
study her,
look for a cure.
Or else
she's the carrier.
Either way,
your job is the same.
Use whatever resources you need
and find her.
[Country western playing
on radio]
[Driver]: So, are you
going to tell me
where you're headed?
I never could
stand the sight
of a woman in tears.
I guess that's why
i never got married.
You in some kind
of trouble?
Run off
on your family?
Law on your tail?
Seattle.
I'm going to seattle.
That's a big city.
You want me to just drop you
on the edge of town?
I'm going to the 4400 center.
I've got to get there.
What the hell for?
Are you joining up?
Just get me as close
as you can.
Please.
If you're looking
for salvation,
you're not going
to find it there.
What you want to do
is to give yourself
over
to your true lord
and savior.
Purification day
is coming.
Signs are everywhere
pestilence, plagues.
Tell me about it.
I woke up in a town
full of dead people
this morning
my mother,
my father.
Every
everyone.
Yeah?
How come you survived?
I think maybe i caused it.
You?
Now i know you're
messing with me.
Okay, go ahead,
laugh at the jesus freak,
but i'm telling you,
the whole world'll be
wiped clean soon enough.
Look, i don't think
you're a freak at all, mister.
Matter of fact,
i believe
The eyes and fingernails show
only slight discoloration.
Rigor mortis
has barely set in.
What did the autopsies show?
Nothing we have a name for.
Their internal
organisms
are pretty much liquefied.
This thing works fast.
So you just took
your helmet off
you got a death wish?
This virus gets released,
goes airborne,
then dissipates
within a half-hour.
Seen enough?
Plenty.
So everyone
we're looking at
died this morning
because
they were within
the virus's
original radius?
Yeah, and if they
drove through town
an hour later,
they'd be fine.
That's something,
anyway,
but orson bailey,
trent appelbaum
when a 4400
manifests an ability,
it can get more intense,
quickly.
Which means that
if jean delynn baker
is transmitting
the virus
yeah, she might be
just warming up.
the doctors say
they cannot stop
my cancer from spreading.
and i've worked
hard all my life,
but tuberculosis has
eaten up our life's savings,
and my beloved wife
of four years can barely
grandma
told me to pray,
so when i saw you
on tv,
i knew
that you would
help me.
Please.
Shawn?
It's lucy.
You're scheduled
for the new keys
address.
Everybody's waiting.
Shawn?
Yeah, i'm flattered.
I'm just not sure
i can take a job
right now.
Richard's going to be
travelling quite a bit.
The daycare here is first-rate
and completely free.
Well, for one thing,
i'm not sure i'm qualified.
I mean, assistant director
of human resources?
I had my first daughter
right out of college.
You could fit my entire resume
on half a page.
You're a 4400.
That's like an advanced
graduate degree around here.
Besides,
jordan talked about you.
Oh, i'm sure he did.
He said you had
the gift of empathy,
that you were
a natural born organizer,
and that you had a knack
for bringing out
the best in people.
Jordan said that about me?
You're a returnee.
You're smart.
We empower people like you
around here.
Wipe your feet.
A killer airborne virus
has been released,
and you're worried
about muddy footprints?
It's still
somebody's home.
So this is where
jean delynn baker lived.
Until she hit
the road, yeah.
Does she keep a schedule?
Any kind of daily planner?
Yeah, but i think
it went out the window
when she realized
her entire hometown
had been wiped out.
Anyone get in touch
with the parents?
This
is their house.
They were sleeping
upstairs
when the virus hit.
Okay, you guys
aren't leaving this house
until you've been through
everything
letters, phone bills,
grocery lists.
Marco, listen to me.
Find me a pattern,
the way she thinks.
She's on the run.
I want to beat her
to wherever she's headed.
Flirt.
You heard the man.
How may i direct your call?
I didn't mean
to do it.
I didn't mean to kill them.
I
these these blisters,
they itch so bad.
Killed who?
I need you
to help me, please.
Who is this?
I'm a 4400,
and there's something wrong
with me.
Everybody
that i'm around dies,
and i don't know
how to stop it.
I don't know
how to stop it.
Tell me your name
and where you are.
How many
people dead?
She said hundreds,
but there's nothing about it
on the news.
Could be
they're trying to keep it quiet,
and there is a 4400
named jean baker?
She said
she's staying
at a motel near
the squirrel hill exit
on the 65.
Get me ntac on the phone.
Yes!
You were right.
Philadelphia creamed 'em.
How much
did you win?
$200 for aunt april.
All because of you,
my little genius.
Now, i'm looking
at chicago versus new york,
even up.
Chicago's the home team,
which gives them some advantage,
but new york
is coming off
a three-game
winning streak.
So, who's your pick?
How much are you betting?
The whole
which won't win me
enough to retire on,
but a girl's got
to start somewhere.
So, you getting
anything?
Do you like me?
What kind of question is that?
I mean,
like me for myself
or because i tell you stuff
that's going to happen?
Honey, listen.
I love you
for who you are,
not what you can do.
Always.
Okay?
I'd go with chicago.
Chicago it is.
Now, come on.
Aunt april is going
to take you out for pizza.
Go wash up,
and take your mom's stuff off.
You know she gets
kind of uptight about
maia.
This is my mother's
engagement ring.
Where did you get this?
I always play with it.
This is a very valuable ring,
which means
it is not
for little girls
to play with.
Now wash good,
or i'll order anchovies.
Go!
Hey.
Hey.
Don't take this the wrong way,
but how'd you get in here?
Your dad gave me a key.
A little early
for dinner, isn't it?
Early for eating.
Not for preparing.
Can you cook?
Sorry, i'm a world-class
brain surgeon,
not a chef.
But i can empty
a grocery bag
with the best
of them, though.
But i have
to warn you,
you're ignoring
the number-one
"rule of dad.
"
Which is?
The longer and more carefully
you prepare for a family event
the more likely it is
he won't show.
I guess you do know the man.
Which means i guess
you also know me,
which, i'm sorry,
is really weird.
You have to admit
it's a little strange
for me, too.
We have an eight-year
relationship,
and i have to
keep reminding myself
that it doesn't really exist.
So tell me,
was i, like, number one
in my class in medical school?
What does it matter, kyle?
You're not in competition
with yourself.
I'm just curious.
Well, you keep bringing it up.
It's more than curiosity.
So what if it is?
If you knew there was
some parallel universe
where a better, smarter version
of you was walking around,
how would you feel?
He wasn't better,
and he wasn't smarter.
He was you.
He just had options
i'll never have.
No 4400,
no coma.
He got to go to medical school.
Who says
you don't have that option?
I'm 21.
I'm a freshman in college.
So you started a little late.
You keep thinking
i know two kyles.
I don't.
I just know you.
You want
to be a doctor?
I know for a fact
that you can pass your mcats.
Jean baker's in a motel
about 10 miles ahead.
Right now, half of ntac
is headed for that place.
Mortimer and falcone
should be there already.
It's weird, huh?
Responding to a tip
that came from inside
the 4400 center?
Shawn did tell me
he wanted
to cooperate with us.
I guess he meant it.
Excuse me.
We're ntac.
We need to get through here.
I'll open it for you.
So what's going on
down there?
Dead trucker.
Looks like
it came on sudden.
Jean delynn baker?
No, no, no.
What are you doing?
I called you for help.
We know.
Come with us.
No, you're scaring me.
Please, stop.
They start to itch
when i get scared.
Please, get away from me!
Oh, god.
H
that trucker died
not more than
three hours ago.
Yeah, and he couldn't
have picked up jean
more than two hours
before that.
Which means
he was exposed, infected,
and killed within,
what, 120 minutes.
That's faster
than any virus
i've ever seen.
Mortimer and falcone.
Looks like
we're playing backup.
Baldwin.
[Jean]: it's not my fault.
Who is this?
I called you for help.
You tossed tear gas
into my room!
Jean baker?
How did you get
mortimer's phone?
How do you think i got it?
They scared me.
They they came barging in
to my room.
What did you do
to them?
I guess you thought
those suits they had on
would keep them safe, huh?
Well, you were wrong, okay?
Nobody's safe.
That's why i'm warning you.
You stay away from me, okay.
Just keep everyone away.
Where are you?
I'm driving.
I think
she took their car.
Call jarvis.
Get a bead on it.
Jean, tell me
where you are,
where you're going.
We want to help you.
No.
I tried that.
No one can help me.
No one ever could.
Why should it be
any different now?
I know you don't want
to kill anyone,
but listen to me,
this virus that's
growing inside you,
it's incredibly lethal.
I've always been toxic.
I poisoned every relationship
i ever had.
This is different.
Yes, they made it real.
My parents always said
i was a walking disaster.
They never got to see
how right they were.
Jean, it doesn't have
to be like that.
If you want this
to be over,
it can be.
Just find a deserted
spot, pull over,
and wait for us
to come to you.
I don't need you.
I'm taking care of it myself.
What are you
going to do?
I'm going to end this
before i kill anyone else.
End what?
This phone call, this day,
everything.
No, jean, just wait.
Hold on.
Listen to me.
Goodbye, baldwin.
She says she's going
to kill herself.
Well, i'm not sure
that's a solution.
It could trigger
another release of the virus.
Do we have a fix on her?
Yeah, she's driving west
on the 99.
Jarvis has got three
helicopters in the air.
If she doesn't pull over,
there's orders
to incinerate.
Vacation?
For how long?
A month, maybe two.
I don't know.
You think that's what
the center, the movement,
needs right now?
I don't know, matthew,
but i'm damn sure
it's what i need
right now.
I think you're going
to have to settle
for a long weekend.
I hear puget sound
is nice.
Okay, you're not hearing me.
I'm ignoring you.
There's a difference.
Listen.
I'm not saying
i can't do this.
I will lead this movement.
But jordan just died,
and i need some time
to get my head around that.
You're going to have to grieve
on the run
like the rest of us.
It's called being a grownup.
Don't lecture me
about my responsibilities.
You just got here,
and if this place needs me
the way that you keep
saying that it does,
then it's going to have
to work around me sometimes.
Work around you?
We can do that.
Mary o'connell.
Taken 1972.
Very promising empath.
Robert fields,
Genius with numbers
and pattern recognition.
John gersten
who are these people?
Replacements, potentially.
None of them make
the slam dunk you would,
but i'm ready
to move this center forward,
with you or otherwise.
Jordan used to talk to me
that way sometimes.
He was great at getting me
to see things his way.
You?
You're not quite there yet.
Your healing power
makes you unique.
Jordan knew it.
I believed it.
I came here to work with you,
but you're asking me
to work around you,
and that i can't do.
Then you are going
to have to spend
some quality time
with that list,
because i'm leaving.
I'm sure you won't
miss a beat, though.
I know there's a huge demand
for pattern recognition.
Th-th-that's impossible.
Mortimer and falcone
were wearing
state-of-the-art
biohazard gear.
That stuff's engineered
to withstand an anthrax attack.
They're dead, marco.
Obviously, whatever
she's releasing
is a little craftier
than the anthrax virus.
If it got through those suits,
that means the antigen's
operating on a subatomic level.
Which basically
makes it unstoppable.
Yeah, pretty much.
Jean told me mortimer
and falcone scared her
when they came
into her room.
Is it possible
the release of this virus
is connected
to her emotional state?
Yeah, more than possible,
it's likely.
Her medicine cabinet
is basically a neon sign
flashing "borderline
personality disorder.
"
She's got cortisone creams
for stress rashes,
an assortment
of your finer
psychopharmaceuticals
xanax, prozac
yeah,
we get it, marco.
She's a wreck.
A wreck whose body acts
as a delivery system
for the virus she's producing
the same way
flowers release pollen.
What, she's emitting
spores?
Something like that.
Look, spores are just
reproductive bodies
released by a vascular system.
The human body
is one big vascular system.
It runs on blood flow.
Yeah, which can
speed up or slow down,
depending on moods,
feelings.
Right, so when jean's blood
gets going
when she's angry,
confused, upset, whatever
a killer virus goes airborne.
We're not far
from her car now, marco.
Any advice on how
to deal with her?
Uh don't *** her off?
Hey.
Hi.
How are you, lily?
Good.
I heard, um,
you're leaving for a while.
That was fast.
Anyway, yeah, i don't know
how long i'm going to be gone.
What are you going to do?
For starters, i'm going to
disappear for a while,
and then, um, i don't know,
who knows?
I mean, i don't have
to work here
to make people healthy,
so i guess i could go anywhere.
So you're just
going to kind of roam the earth,
kung fu style?
I'm not going to shave my head
and wear a robe,
but something like that,
i guess.
Well, you could take these
with you,
check out
the return address
stop off
in gloucester, massachusetts,
do a quick healing,
and then go on your way.
You know about the letters?
Oh, shawn,
they're everywhere.
Yeah, each one sadder
than the next.
It's too much to take, almost.
It did give me
an idea, though,
but, you know, you're leaving,
so we'll talk it over
when you get back.
No, lily, i mean
like i said, i don't know when
that's going to be, so, please,
i would love to hear
what you have to say.
All right, well,
i was thinking
i mean, we're not
a hospital,
and we're not
a charity,
and still, thousands
of these requests
keep pouring in
every day.
I mean, no wonder
you feel overwhelmed.
We're not set up
to handle it.
Yes, exactly.
That's why
i've got to get out of here.
What if we set up a foundation?
Part of this place,
but separate.
Hire a staff
whose only job
is to open
these letters
and find the neediest cases,
people that we can help
that no one else can.
But that is still saying no
to thousands of people.
Well, that's right, shawn,
but what if we can say yes
to one?
I mean, you heal
one person a day,
every day.
That's a big job, though
deciding who deserves it most.
Well, so you form a committee,
and you load it up
with doctors and social workers.
And you.
Oh.
Well
come on, i mean,
it's your idea.
You should at least be there
to help make it happen.
Yeah, i just took a job
at human resources.
I think i could probably
get you transferred.
Did you find a body
in there?
Can't get
close enough yet.
As soon as you can,
we need to retrieve it.
Well, she said
she wanted to end it.
I guess we could send
marco and his boys
back down
to the basement,
let 'em find
a ripple effect
on this one.
Excuse me.
Baldwin.
I came close,
but i don't know
jean?
I couldn't go through with it.
That's good.
Nobody wants you dead.
Just tell me where you are.
No.
You can't
help me.
The 4400 center can't help me,
but it doesn't matter.
I finally know
where i'm supposed to go.
Tell me where.
I'll meet you
there.
You ever read
the bible, baldwin?
I went to sunday school.
I spent some time
with it earlier today,
back at that motel.
"The time is at hand.
"
That's "revelations," right?
But do you know
what it means?
I bet you don't.
See, these blisters
they form on my hands.
Do you get it?
I'm not sure i do, jean.
They're talking
about me in that book.
You got family?
Jean, what are you
talking about?
Go to them.
Hug them real tight.
I've finally
figured it out,
why they
sent me back.
I'm part of their plan.
They want me to do this.
Do what?
Purify humanity.
She was quoting "revelations?"
Never a good sign, tom.
She's gone
from wanting to help,
wanting to stop
all of this,
to believing she's
the end of the world,
so what does she do?
She said they want her
to do this, right?
Well, that implies
it's out of her hands.
Destiny.
She's giving up
responsibility.
Yeah, that's one way
to deal with being
a walking plague
pretend the decision's
out of your hands.
I don't think
she wants to even
think about it
anymore.
I think she just
wants it over.
Well,
that's her mindset.
It still doesn't tell us
where she's going.
She's on
autopilot, tom.
My best guess?
She does whatever
she planned on doing
before the bodies
started rolling.
Right.
[Cellphone ringing]
Marco.
Today's tuesday, right?
It's wednesday,
marco.
My bad.
She's only got one thing
written down for the day.
She's filing
her unemployment claim
in downtown portland.
Son of a ***!
I don't believe it.
Am i dreaming,
or did you not tell me
that chicago would win?
Do you know
what i bet?
$200.
Try my mother's
diamond engagement ring,
and now it's gone,
all because i believed in you,
trusted you,
and you let me down.
You lied to me.
You said winning
didn't matter.
You said you liked me anyway.
Oh, so you knew chicago
would lose, didn't you?
Right from the jump,
this was all just a test.
A foundation?
Don't you think
we have our hands
full already?
It's one person a day.
Once it's up
and running,
it's not really going
to eat into my time.
I thought you were
looking for privacy.
You do this,
you're stepping into
a white-hot spotlight.
Yes, but it's
on my terms.
Be good publicity.
Not too hard
to get off the ground.
We could get
some huge names
for that
filtering committee.
I think
it's a good idea.
Well, i'm glad
that you approve,
but i wasn't really asking
for your permission.
I would hope not.
Jean.
Baldwin?
That's right.
You should've stayed away.
Look around you.
All these people, they haven't
done anything to hurt you.
They haven't done anything
to help me, either.
Besides,
it doesn't matter.
I don't have a choice.
I am doing
what they wanted me to do.
You don't have
to accept that.
You have a choice.
Yeah, like i had a choice
when i was abducted.
I never had a choice.
Ever.
They have
the right girl
for the job.
What are you doing
here, anyway?
You should have gone
back to your family,
like i said.
No.
I'm right where
i want to be.
Then you must have
some kind of death wish.
You think you're here
to kill people.
I think i'm here to stop you.
They infected you, jean,
and that was wrong,
but you don't have to let them
make you into a mass murderer.
I'm already a killer.
No.
No.
You haven't decided
to kill anyone.
That's what you're doing
right now.
Whatever
you're thinking
about destiny or fate,
whatever
you're wrong.
You don't have to do this.
You don't.
Want to hear
something funny?
I i believe you.
But it's too late.
Oh
they're so ripe.
I can't stop it now.
They itch so bad.
They do.
Hell of a day.
How are you holding up?
Well
i'm scheduled
for psychiatric
counseling on monday.
Saved thousands
of innocent people,
had to shoot a woman
to do it
you did what you had to do.
Anyway, uh,
not sure if this
is a good time,
but i made you
a little something.
It's kind of a
well, a fake version
of maia's diary.
Should fool
just about anybody.
You forged this
to get ntac off my back?
I know
it's a big thing,
but you were kind of
over a barrel, so
this could get me
into a lot of trouble.
This could get you
in a lot of trouble.
Yeah, uh
you don't
have to use it
if you don't want to.
Just giving you
an option.
This is insane.
It's also maybe one
of the nicest things
anybody's ever done
for me.
I want to thank you
for a job well done.
You must have been
very persuasive.
I just said what i thought.
Your idea for a foundation
was terrific.
You mean your idea, don't you?
Do we have to be
all cloak-and-dagger
about it?
You and shawn
both got what you wanted,
and a lot of sick people
are going to get help.
Well, you did a lot of good
for the center today,
and i'm not going to forget it.
Hey, matthew,
you know what the center
means to me?
What?
Free rent and daycare
for my daughter.
I'm not
an 18-year-old kid.
I don't need to discover
the magic power inside of me.
So, in other words
you're not a true believer?
Is that a problem?
Not at all.
Neither am i.
You look wiped.
Yeah.
Don't ask.
You didn't
have to do this.
Well, i didn't.
Your son's the cook.
Kyle?
I bet he had
a little help.
Well, you know,
we got to talking.
It was nice.
How was your day, alana?
Well, i bought
these pieces
from this young artist,
this girl from bed-stuy,
self-taught,
and she painted
this little
scrap of garden
in her backyard,
and it's night,
and the sky
is so rich and deep
You okay?
More or less.
Bet you almost forgot.
No, i didn't,
but i thought,
in light of today's events,
i would give you
a little extension.
Well, it's not necessary.
It's a hot read.
Lots of good stuff
about spongebob.
Thank you.
