"Previously on Alphas..." "He has your arm." "It's hard being apart from them, isn't it?" "Yeah." "I never made my own friends." "Are you really my friend, Anna?" "Of course I'm your friend." "They killed her--Anna." "They shot her in the head." "She was my friend." "So you're a fighter." "You got skills?" "Wouldn't be here if I didn't." "All I know is I can do a bunch of stuff." "But I can't remember how I learned it." "What did you do to me?" "I'm really sorry about your friend." "Yeah, I wouldn't call her my friend anymore, but thanks." "Nina, your life is out of control." "I'm tired of hurting people." " Nina, no!" " I'm sorry for everything." "Maggie." "That's my sister." "I'm sorry for your loss." "If you follow me, there's some paperwork." "Yeah." "Adam." "Adam." "Don't you hear that?" "Better get you back to the main office." "Adam, help me." "Adam?" "Maggie." " Adam!" " Maggie!" "Adam, help me!" " I need some help here!" " Maggie!" " Help me!" " Maggie!" " Help me, Adam!" " Maggie!" "Adam, help me!" "Adam!" " Maggie!" " Help me!" " Oh, my God." " Help me, Adam!" "Adam!" "Help me, Adam." "Help me." "Adam?" "Maggie." "Maggie." " Adam!" "Adam!" " Maggie!" " Adam!" " No, get off me!" "Adam!" "Get off me!" "She's alive!" "Gary's working through some issues, so..." "And I-I thought it would be easier for you to find your bearings without everyone around." "Also, I wanted to find a quiet moment to speak with you about something." "I know the drill." "Ready to do the work, so..." "No more pushing." "Uh, yes and--and no, Nina." "Um, I-I thought we'd take a different approach to your recovery this time." "I need your help, but only if you're okay with this." "Um..." "Let me explain, hmm?" "The more I learn of--of Stanton Parish, the-- well, the more he frightens me." "He's made it very clear to me that should the path to his utopia be lined with bodies, so be it." "An "ends justify the means" type of guy." "Uh, yes." "And Gary has managed to connect Parish's family fortune, which is quite substantial, to a charity." "It's the Llamrei Foundation." "So what, it's, like, an evil charity?" "No, it appears to be doing some pretty wonderful work." "But it has also made some rather sizeable and yet undisclosed contributions to our own New York Senator Burton." "Now, this is a quid pro quo situation" "She probably wouldn't admit it if you just asked nicely." "Probably not." "But..." "I'm thinking you could ask her nicely." "I need you to find out what the senator knows about Stanton Parish." "This is her schedule." "She'll be in New York for one more day." "Okay." "Thank you, Nina." "You take two fingers." "You're gonna put it on the seam." "Then you're gonna draw it back." "Does that make sense, Ty?" "I don't know." "Got to go." "I've got practice." "Yeah, okay." "Well, look, we can, uh--we'll work on your follow-through when you come out next week." "And guess what." "I got us two tickets to the Yankees game." "Mom says plans have changed." "I'm not coming to New York." " Tyler, we got to go." " What?" "Why?" "Hey, Cameron, he'll give you a call on Thursday." "He's not coming anymore?" "Well, Evan offered to take us to San Francisco next weekend, so we're gonna go to San Francisco." "Well, look, I, uh" "I can come out to Nevada anytime, you know?" "I'll just let you know when it's a good time, okay?" "Yeah, okay." "Uh..." "Tell him I said good-bye, okay?" "Okay." "Sorry about that." "I wasn't eavesdropping." "I just couldn't help but overhear." "You know where I was when Tyler had his first Little League tryout?" "Um..." "Me neither." "I was out of my mind drunk." "She's still pissed." "I get it." "I'm not really in a position to make any demands after everything I put them through, you know?" "Yeah." "What the hell happened to you?" "Present from my wife." "Yeah, she gets a little rough, and" "Seriously?" "I mean, I just got gutted, and that's what you're gonna come back at me with?" "All right, listen..." "I've been going to the fight club." "Oh, come on, dude." "No, Hicks, I got it under control." "It's a rush." "It..." "It's good." "I don't like the tie." "It's like a noose." "Nooses kill people." "It's a tombstone unveiling, Gary." "Men wear ties." "And..." "My goodness, you look great." "Yeah, I know." "I don't think that this is gonna make me feel any better, though." "Dr. Rosen says that I need catharsis." "But I don't think you can get catharsis from words on a rock." "Well, it's not a rock." "It's a memorial." "It's not even her words, you know?" "If there are gonna be words, they should at least be Anna's words." "Tuck your shirt in." "Oh, Nina." "You bought me this suit." "A year ago." "Well, I didn't buy it, but, yeah, I remember." "You look great, Gary." "Yeah, I know." "You're a criminal, but you're not in jail." "She should be in jail, but apparently Dr. Rosen thinks we need her." "Oh, so you're back on the team." "She's not a part of my team." "Rachel, look, I'm sorry for what I did to you." "I know my actions hurt a lot of people" "Please, don't." "I'm not interested." "Come on, Gary." "Come on." "His name is Adam Gordon." "He had been fine for a long time." "Something must have triggered this." "Is that what they're saying?" " Well..." " Where are you going?" "Morning." "One of the analysts flagged a YouTube video from a hospital security camera of a former patient of mine." "And then pulled it immediately." "Got to keep a lid on this Alpha thing." "Let me know how it goes with the senator." "Yeah." "Hey!" "Valet service at the elevator, high-class joint you got." "We running a bed and breakfast now?" "I'm just gonna run a sleep study on Kat tonight, see if we can figure out what's going on with her memory." "Uh, I'm sorry." "We have to, uh..." "No, it's cool." "You can set yourself up in my office." "Yeah." " You know where the kitchen is." " Yeah, get out of here." "Hello, Senator." "It's a beautiful hotel, isn't it?" "Did you know that Mayor LaGuardia lived here in the '30s?" "He kept a suite upstairs." "No, Senator, I didn't, but can I ask you a question?" "Mmhmm." "You want to answer me truthfully." "Of course." "Your campaign received substantial donations from the Llamrei Foundation." "Did you do something for them in return?" "Yes." "What exactly?" "I can't tell you that." "Yes, you can." "I can't." "It's gone." "Thank you, Senator." "Maggie was alive, Dr. Rosen." "She was begging for my help." "I would have done anything." "No, I understand, Adam." "I know how close you and your sister always were." " She was my best friend." " Mm." "I found out she was using about six months ago." "Oh, that's a shame." "I figured tough love, you know?" "I'd cut her off." "Maybe she'd clean up." "The important thing is that your tried, Adam." "Now, listen, intense grief can often have devastating effects upon a person." "And we both know that, uh, your emotions have always been right at your fingertips... so to speak." "I'd like to send you to a clinic where you can get the kind of support you need right now..." "With your permission, of course." "Yeah." "Two gentlemen I work with, a Mr. Harken and a Mr. Hicks, will escort you there, uh, once your paperwork is all filled out." "Don't be too hard on yourself." "So the orderlies are bringing him down." "Yes, here are his medical records." "The paperwork for the transfer to the clinic is almost done." "Uh, be gentle." "He's been through a lot." "You're not staying?" "No, I've got some pressing business" "I need to attend to." "Um, I'll be in touch." "Relax, this has been happening around these floors lately." "Adam, help me." "Help me!" "They're hurting me." "They won't let me out." "Maggie?" "Are you okay?" "I need to get to Maggie!" "I need to get out!" "Let me off!" "Get off!" "Let me out of here!" "I need help over here!" "Somebody!"

"That's the--that's the problem." "Gary, shh." "No, well, why does he get to talk?" "He's lying." "We should go." "Come on." "Anna wasn't peaceful." "She was a rebel." "Now she's a dead rebel." "Oh, please excuse us." "I'm sorry." "This probably wasn't the best idea." " No, it was a horrible idea." " Oh." " I didn't get any catharsis." " We should" "Oh." "Your phone's ringing." " I'm so sorry." " That's embarrassing for you." "Uh, where do I put my stone?" "This was a beautiful service." "Thank you." "This guy is delusional and violent." "We need to find him before he hurts anyone else." "You understand?" "Okay." "Thanks." "Are they covering the exits?" " Yeah, they got it." " Yeah." "We're not sick." "We're on official business." "So you have to respect the badge." "They get it." "Put the badge away now." "Hey, any sign of him?" "Here, take a whiff of this." " Excuse me." " It's Adam's shirt." "I'm not a dog." "That's right." "She's not a dog, Hicks." "What do you smell?" "Help me." "Somebody help me." "It's a sound, actually." "Okay." " Gary." "Gary." " Yeah." "Tap into the security cameras and give me a shout if you see anything, okay?" "Yeah." "Hicks!" "What?" "I'm not a dog." "I have to find better reception." "Ooh." "Adam is definitely up here." "Just our luck--it's the closed wing at the hospital." "Yeah, just like in a horror movie." "I'd be careful if I was you." "Every single horror movie I have ever seen" "Yeah, the white chick is tripping and screaming, yeah." "No, no, try it again." "Yeah, the black guy's gonna die first?" "I don't think so." "I'm trying." "Please help me." "Why can't anyone hear me?" "I think it's this way, you guys." "I-I can't pinpoint exactly where the sound's coming from." "When I talked to the hospital staff, they said that this Adam freak-out isn't the first time." "Apparently a lot of weird stuff has been happening lately." "Equipment's been malfunctioning, people seeing things out of the corner of their eye, and" "These are the people in charge of my health care, huh?" "Yeah, well..." "As an investigator, I'm not gonna dismiss the possibility out of hand." "Please." "Can anyone hear me?" "Adam's close." "I can smell his fear." "Okay, you know what?" "I'll take this one." "With her." "Help me." "Yeah, go get 'em, cowboy." " Hi, Gary." " Oh." "Uh, Anna." "You're dead." "You can't really be here." "You can't be." "You're dead." "So what am I, then?" "Anna doesn't talk" "Anna didn't talk when she was alive." "Well, I'm different now, I guess." "No, you-- oh, sir." "Sir." "I have--I'm a federal agent." "I have a question." "Can you see Anna there?" "There's nobody there." " No, sir, look there." " Hey!" "Hands off, man." "There are plenty of doctors here." "Why don't you go talk to one?" "Well oh, yeah, no, he could be right." "I could have a brain tumor." "Yeah, that would make sense." "Gary, you see things all the time other people can't." "Your signals." "Yeah, I see signals, but I don't hallucinate." "I don't see hallucinations." "Are you haunting me?" "I just saw Senator Burton." "She's telling the truth." "Now she didn't know, but..." "It felt like she thought she did." "Well, if she thought she did, chances are she does know." "Our memories are often stored in scattered fragments throughout our brains-- hidden, trapped just out of reach." "But if the information is in there-- which I believe it is" "I'm thinking you might be able to retrieve it." "Yeah, but I already tried pushing her." "No, this is more of a pull than a push, Nina." "We could use some sensory recognition technique with your ability... and you could help her reconnect the bits of memory." "Lee, I've never tried anything like that." "No, I-I know." "But you've done a lot of things of late that, uh, were previously unprecedented." "Now, I wouldn't ask you to do this unless you were completely comfortable." "The senator's getting on the red-eye for London tonight." "We should find her at the airport before she leaves." "If she's got part of Parish's agenda in her head, we should get on it now." "I agree." "But first we have to determine whether or not you can actually pull a repressed memory." "And we have the perfect test subject." "Hey." "What's up?" "Have you ever had anything like this done before?" "Most likely, yeah." "I don't remember." "Well, this is gonna be a little different." "I want to see if Nina can help you retrieve some memory that your brain has, for whatever reason, buried away." "She's gonna ask you some questions." "Just relax and just answer what comes to mind." "Okay." "I'm down for whatever." "It's okay." "Don't be scared." "I'm not." "It just felt right." "Um, shall we start with your sixteenth birthday?" "Focus on the walls." "Can you make out a color?" "Remember, it's your birthday, Kat." "Can you smell anything..." "Good." "Food cooking, candles burning?" "Can you taste anything..." "Cake?" "Chocolate." "Excellent." "The kind of chocolate frosting that comes in a can." "Beige walls... paintings... landscapes..." "Ugh, they suck." "Nina, try to personalize it." "Is anyone there with you?" "There's a woman." " Nina, are you all right?" " Yeah, I'm fine." "I just, um..." "I need a break." "All right." "It's fine." "I got what I need." "You can do it, Nina." "If we leave now, we can catch the senator at the airport." "So I can take these off now, right?" "Yeah, sure." "Thank you for your cooperation." "Just leave the money on the dresser." "Why didn't you disappear all the way?" "Down the hallway, you disappeared all the way." "Oh, you're getting stronger the higher up we go, like a signal." "But you're not electromagnetic." "If dead people were electromagnetic then I would have seen them before, like today at the-- oh!" "You touched me." "I'm sorry." "I know you don't like to be touched, but you put that tie on for me, and... you look nice." "Yeah." "Oh, it's him." "His heart is racing." "Bill..." "He's in here." "Bill?" "Bill." "Maggie, I can help." "Aah!" "The scream came from this room." "Rachel?" "Rachel!" "She's not answering." "You were supposed to stay with her!" "Don't try to gaslight me, Hicks." "You were with her." "No, I wasn't." "Rachel!" "Okay, I'm gonna get security and get them to do a floor-by-floor sweep." "Get Rosen on this thing." "This isn't just about looking for an Alpha." "This place is getting really weird." "Bill, I understand." "I'll be there as soon as I can." "For both of us." "She's there." "Nina, what did you do to your hand?" "It's fine." "Don't worry about it." "When you were holding hands with Kat, is that what" "Kat spent a lot of time in hospitals, people poking around her head." "Somebody held her hand, and..." "It must have been nice." "Nina, if I'm asking too much of you right now, you have to tell me, please." "This isn't worth putting you at risk." "Perfect world, you wouldn't need to use your ability at all." "But the world isn't perfect... and I want to help." "I like sleeping at the office, 'cause I never have to get a ride to work, and I never have to get a ride home." "I'm already home." "Oh, you can laugh." "I didn't know that you could do that." "Oh, wait, wait." "Yeah." "This better be important." "I'm talking to Anna." "Gary, what?" "Focus." "Ping Rachel's phone." "I can't find her." "Yeah, okay, Bill, I'll get to it." "But I'm in the middle of something that I'm doing." " Did you just hang up on me?" " Bill!" "Help me!" "Rachel!" "Gary, you should help your friends." "The neuro-diverse need to be there for each other." "Someone approached you from the foundation." "Was it a man?" "His scent-- was he perspiring?" "Was he...wearing cologne?" "A light scent... lemony." "I couldn't place the brand." "It was a Tuesday." "He was wearing a gray suit." "Senator?" "Our flight is boarding." "Don't lose her focus, Nina." "What did he ask you to do?" "Trial tests..." "Medical." "Medical what?" "Senator, it's almost time." "Now think of the man." "His gray suit, his scent..." "Medical what?" " August." " August." "Good." "This August or last year?" "Senator?" "They're boarding now." "We're old friends, just catching up." "Does August mean anything to you?" "We'll figure it out." "We should go." "Rachel." "Rachel." "Rachel." "Rachel?" "Rachel." "Rachel?" "Dad!" "Dad, help me!" "Hello?" "Dad, help me!" "Dad!" "Hey!" " Dad!" " Hey!" " Help me!" " Hey!" "My kid's not dead!" "Hey, stop!" "It's okay, Maggie, you're gonna be okay." "I'm gonna get you out of here." "No, no, shh!" "If they hear you, Maggie, they'll put you back in the drawer, okay?" "This machine drains the blood." "I got to get the drugs out of you, okay?" "Make you clean." "Okay, Maggie?" "Maggie!" "Wait, where are you going?" "Why are you running from me?" "Rachel!" "Come on, come on." "Unh!" "Rachel!" "Help!" "Help!" "Help, I'm drowning!" "Help!" "I'm drowning." "I'm drowning." "I'm drowning." "Help me." "I'm drowning." "I'm drowning." "Rachel?" "Adam." "Adam, help me." "I'm drowning." "Maggie?" "Aah!" "Rachel." "Gary, you scared the hell out of me." "Bill, get a hold of yourself." "I pinged Rachel's phone for you." "I wanted to help Anna, but she said that I should come" "Gary, what are you talking about?" "Anna is dead." "No, no, she's not dead, Bill." "She's here." "Wait." "Are you seeing things too?" "No, I'm not seeing things." "I'm seeing Anna." "She's a person." "Anyway, Rachel's upstairs." "You should go and help her." " No, come on, let's go." " Yeah--no, Bill!" "We got to get the hell out of here and find Rachel." "You go find her." "I've got to help Anna." "Dad!" "Help me!" "Dad!" "Tyler!" "No!" "What's happening?" "Dad!" " Please, stop!" " Dad, help me!" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Tyler!" "No, please, stop!" " Dad!" " Please let him go!" "I'll do whatever you want!" "Take me instead!" "Tyler!" "Rachel?" "Rachel?" "Ra" "Rachel!" "Rachel!" "Rachel!" "Wha..." "That shouldn't be happening-- just like you, Anna." "This is a special phone Skylar gave to me." "You'd like her." "She has tattoos." "Oh, yeah, look." "That's what's vibrating the cart." "I found your signal, Anna." "It's infrasound." "I've read about that." " What's causing it?" " I don't know." "It could be machinery, like an industrial air conditioner." " So I might just be the A.C.?" " I'm not sure yet." "It's about time you got here." "Rachel wrote that." "And Adam is dead." "Something made Adam drown himself and whatever that something is, is affecting Rachel, okay?" "And I think it's affecting Hicks as well." "Now, we have to find out what it is because we are dealing with something that we don't understand." "No!" "You don't understand it, Bill." "I do." "It's infrasound." "What is infrasound?" "It's a sonic frequency below the threshold of normal human hearing." "Yeah, and it makes things vibrate, like those tools and the lights." "It can have a dramatic effect on people's brains." "Yeah, people who aren't even Alphas." "But it affects alphas more." "Okay, so that's got to be affecting Rachel, right?" "I mean-- Yeah, yeah!" "It's making you crazy, though, but it's letting me see Anna." " What?" "You've seen Anna?" " Yeah, look." "I recorded it on my phone." "You can't hear it." "But you can see it, yeah." "Gary, can you modify this signal somehow to make it audible?" "Yeah, of course I can." "I'm a professional." "Help me." "I'm drowning." "That's not an air conditioner." "Drowning?" " The elevator, right?" " Yes." "Rachel thinks she's drowning." "I-I've got to find her." "I've got to help her." "Bill, be careful- you're probably being affected too." "So the closer you get to the source of the sound, the more powerful it will be." "Help me." "Help me, I'm drowning." "Help." "Help." "I'm drowning." "Oh, my God!" "Nina!" "We're very close to it, 'cause Anna's hardly disappeared off of here at all." "I'm taking her to the source." "All right, Gary." "You're helping Anna, right?" "Yeah." "Bill is desperate to help Rachel." "It appears that you're all acting on that subliminal cry for help embedded in the infrasound." "But Bill thinks that it's a spirit." "He believes in spirits." "He might not be so far off, Gary." "Machines don't cry for help." "People do." "There were three near-drowning patients last year..." "Stacy Fung, discharged after two days." "Andrew Mittman, D.O.A. That's dead on arrival." "And there's Jason Miller." "He--oh, Dr. Rosen!" "He's still here." "1626." " 1626." " Yeah." " Oh, that's on another floor." " Persistent vegetative state." "It says that he's brain-dead." "Well, that might not be accurate." "The machines might not be registering brain activity." "But if he is communicating somehow" "Oh, no, Dr. Rosen, it says that his parents are gonna let them harvest his organs for transplant." "He's 16." "Well, if the doctors believe that he was indeed brain-dead, they would never have tried to revive him." "Gary, stay right here for a moment." "But, Dr. Rosen, where are you going?" "I think there may be a way to save this boy and stop the infrasound." "I'll be right back." "What's wrong, Gary?" "Adam's an Alpha, and the infrasound-- it affected his brain." "He saw his dead sister." "And I'm an Alpha, and I can see you." "You're not real." "But I like seeing you." "We're gonna find Jason before Dr. Rosen does." "This way." "That way." "Yeah, this is it." "That's him, Anna." "He's emitting the infrasound." "And look--look, the machines say that he's dead." "Machines don't understand us." " Gary, open the door, please." " No!" "Gary, open the door!" "Gary, we can't locate Harken, Hicks, and Rachel." "But if I'm right, they're in serious trouble." "I have to wake Jason up!" "It's the only way to stop the infrasound." "No, Dr. Rosen!" "If you wake him up, then I'm gonna lose Anna, again!" "You know that, Dr. Rosen!" "Gary, listen to me." "You're not thinking clearly right now." "Yeah, I know!" "But I don't want to think clearly." "Dr. Rosen, I couldn't save Anna at Highland Mills, but I can this time." "The Anna you see right now-- she's an hallucination." "And what she is saying to you is what you want her to say." "No!" "No!" "That's not true!" "Gary, she is not real." "Yes!" "She's real, 'cause she touched me." "And she says things that only Anna would say." "All right, then ask her." "Ask Anna what you should do." "No, I don't want to ask her." "Maybe Anna needs to tell you something." "Gary, please." "Please." "Gary, Jason's one of us." "You couldn't help me, but you can save his life." "He's crying out for help." "Gary, the neuro-diverse need to be there for each other." "Sorry, Dr. Rosen." "Thank you, Gary." "We have to stick together." "You did the right thing, Gary." "Come on, Rachel." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on." "Bill." "Jason, do you remember anything about what's happened to you, like, uh, sensations of drowning, feeling trapped in your mind, trying to cry out for help?" "Nothing?" "All right, um, can I do anything for you?" "Uh, can I, um..." "Can I have some chips?" "Sure." "What kind?" " The salt-and-vinegar kind." " Sure." "I think we can make that happen." "Thanks." "Is that a photic stimulator?" "Yes." "How long has it been in use in this hospital?" "About six months." "Was that device ever used on this man?" "We use it on all comatose patients to test brain activity." ""August Medical."" "August." "Cameron?" "You can't just show up here without my permission." "I'm sorry." "I got to see him." "Please." "Okay." "Dad?" "What are you doing here?" " Hi." " Hi." "What are you doing, huh?" " Rachel, are you all right?" " I'm fine." "Thanks for asking." "When sketching the female form, start with a long vertical line divided in two unequal parts." "The long part will be the body and the short part will be the head." "Sketch the body creating a skeleton using horizontal lines for hips and shoulders and vertical lines for arms and legs." "As you get the hang of the proportions, gradually employ curvature." "The female form can be divided into approximately eight circles up and down with cylindrical shapes for the arms and joints." "As women have more rounded bodies than men, their hips should always be drawn the same width as the shoulders." "Light and shadow are key to rendering lifelike images." "People know how shadows play across the curves and crevices of the female body." "By properly shading the creases of the skin, you'll create the illusion that the figure is lifelike and three dimensional." "Dr. Rosen..." "I tracked down where every photic stimulator from August Medical went." "Oh, great." "2,700 different hospitals..." " 2,700?" " Across the country, yeah." "And there's 42 different models of this." "That's a lot." "And we have no idea what this thing does to people's brains or how it fits into Stanton Parish's agenda, if indeed it does." "Gary, do you remember the young woman who built you your phone?" "Yes, Skylar." "But she wasn't young." " Do you still have it with you?" " Yeah, of course I have it." "It was a present." "You're supposed to keep presents, even if you don't like them." "And, yeah, she said I could call her on this." "Well, I'm thinking she might be the one to figure out how this thing works." " Oh, does she speak Chinese?" " I don't know." "Why?" "Oh, these were manufactured in China, and I don't speak Chinese." "Anna speaks Chinese." "Speaks Chinese, Gary?" "You--you just referred to Anna in the present tense." "It's okay if you think of Anna as still being with you, but you should realize that-- Oh, no, I don't think that." "She was with me, and now she's not with me." "But I found another way to honor Anna, Dr. Rosen." "All right." "Dr. Rosen, it's late." "You--you should go home, 'cause you don't live here, but I do--I live here." "Yes, that's right." "Thanks, Gary." "== sync, corrected by elderman =="
