"This is just the easiest solution right now." "Bill..." "You'll find something else." "Have some... faith." "All right." "That was fun." "Jim!" "Hey, Seth." "We're here." "Just checked in." "Catching some sun nearby." "Uh, Seth, I'm not feeling so well." "Is that Jim?" "Tell him I say hello." "He says hello back." "Hold on a sec." "You don't sound sick." "Hey, you're not trying to avoid seeing Angela and me?" "I know seeing us together would be a little weird, but..." "No, no, I'm..." "It's not that." "Wait, did you have an episode again?" "Yeah." "Oh, no." "That's terrible." "When?" "Just now." "Where are you?" "I'm at home." "You want us to come visit you?" "No, you guys are just here for a few days." "Uh, that settles it." "We're coming to see you." "You may recall I make a chicken soup that will cure any illness." "Not that chicken soup that left me on the throne for two days." "Oh, yeah, that's the one." "You know what," "I'm feeling slightly better." "See, the recipe works!" "Okay, see ya, pal." "Jim!" "What ups!" "Seth." "Ha ha!" "Not gonna let a little migraine stop us from seeing each other." "You had me at chicken soup." "Oh, come on." "Hey, Jim!" "Angela." "How are you?" "Congrats on your first year of residency!" "Thanks!" "I can't believe I got through it." "You remember Kara, right?" "Oh, hey, Kara." "Hey!" "What are you doing in LA?" "Um, I'm in between jobs." "Jim is applying to the CIA." "As an analyst, nothing glamorous." "Until you save the world."

"I certainly admire you guys for going after your dreams, but I just couldn't give up flying business class." "Seth made me and Angela fly economy." "Hey, I earned those miles." "And it was super sweet of him to treat us on this trip, right, Kara?" "Thanks, Seth." "Mm-hmm." "Oh, can we see if the ice cream guy takes frequent flyer miles?" "Ha ha." "Although... there's nothing wrong with getting a punch card." "Oh, my gosh." "Oh, no, I got ya." "This is nice." "Yep." "Oh, Seth, look, try and get us from the waist up." "Okay, yeah?" "Thanks." "All right." "* Hey" "Aah, it's freezing!" "Oh, my gosh." "In the shot, right here." "Kara's pretty cute, huh?" "You're not trying to set me up now, are you?" "No way, I would never do that!" "Look, I know seeing Angela and I together must be hard." "After you left Chicago, I think we both felt a void." "Never really thought it was gonna work." "Um, I wanted you to be the first to know." "I'm gonna ask Angela to marry me." "So soon?" "Yeah, think I'm finally ready." "Being single was fun, but... now?" "Think it'd be nice to raise a family." "That's great." "Oh, here it goes."

"Angela was also my sorority sis over at U Chicago back in the day." "Yes, peeps, I was once part of a secret organization, meant to..." "Kara, we swore an oath!" "Oh, right." "Sorry, guys, I can't tell you." "Um, but, guess in the comments section below, and don't forget to subscribe!" " Bye for now!" " Bye." "Well!" "You guys look like you're having a very romantic conversation." "Yeah, I was about to do the yawn and stretcher on Jim." "Oh, shoot me." "Hey, did Seth tell you what we're gonna be doing tomorrow?" "Oh, no, he didn't." "Oh!" "I found a guy on the internet who started an introductory gun school." "So we're gonna be driving out to shoot some guns in the desert."

" Okay." "If that's not a blackmail picture, I don't know what is!" "Oh!" "Ugh, it's all blurry!" "That sucks." "Can we go back?" " We're not going back." " Please!" " No." " Please, pretty please!"

" Jim?" " I'm good." "Angela?" "No." "Kara, why don't you try again?" "Going hot." "You think you can shoot, huh?" "You think you can shoot?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I'm gonna shoot you." "Yeah." "I hit..." "like... a girl." " Wow!" " That was great!" " Oh, boy." " Let's go check the target." "Going down range." " Hey!" "Hey!" " Kara, slow down!" "Kara!" "Ka..." "What is she doing?"

"You guys, my phone is dead." " Mine, too!" " What the freak!" " God!" " It's dead!" "Now what?" " John!" " Hold on, wait a sec." "Jim, can you walk?" "Let me try." "Let me try." "Help him up." "Come on, you guys." "Come on." "All right, all right." "It's 25 or 30 miles to the nearest gas station." "All right, it's getting dark." "I got some sleeping bags, some snacks and water." "Gonna find a place to camp tonight." "I'll leave out in the morning." "I'll come back with some help." "Jim, you think you can wait it out tonight?" " Yeah." "Yeah..." " Yeah?" "Okay." "Guys, I'm gonna get us set up tonight." "Maybe we shouldn't have come out here, you guys." "This is a bad idea." "Hey, what are you doing so far away?" "I was having hot flashes." "Thought I was going through menopause." "No fever." "Must be feeling better." "Good." "You were starting to sound like a big baby." "Wow." "What a doctor." "Oh, I forgot to tell you!"

"Yeah, I'm fine." "I like Jim." "Glad you guys hit it off." "But I think he just doesn't know how to appreciate someone like me." " Well..." " Not like you." "Hey, how you doing?" " Guys want some?" " Definitely." "Huh?" "Here go you." " Thanks." " Sure." "I wish my phone worked so I could document all of this." "Yeah, I don't get people nowadays that take pictures of everything." "I'm used to the old-school pictures." "I thought it was stupid at first, but then my Grandma got Alzheimer's, so I take pictures in case I forget." "Well, cheers to, uh, capturing every moment." "Cheers." "Glad you guys are all okay." "Hear, hear." "Guys?" "Guys?" "Hello?" "Oh, hey." "What are you doing out here?" "Aah!" " What was that?" " I don't know." "We should go find out." "Why did you come here?" "Kara?" "Seth?" " Seth?" " Seth, Kara?" "Whoa, whoa." "Whoa, John?" "John?" "What is he doing?" "Did you say something?" "Why aren't you responding to normal channels, Jim?" "What is he talking about?" "I don't know." "John, what's wrong with you?" "I'm perfectly fine, Jim." "It's you who seems to be malfunctioning." "What's wrong with him?" "What..." "What are you talking about?" "Angela..." "I want you to get out of here right now." "Find Kara and Seth." "John, back up!" "Go." " No." " Go!" "Get outta here!" "Okay!" "What the hell?" " John?" " Let's test your strength." "John?" "John?" "Whoa!" "Hahh!" "Mmuhh!" "Your strength is greater than anticipated." "Hwah!" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa." " Hey." " Back off, John." "Hey, Jim." "What are you doing?" "It's me." "Stand down!" "I'll shoot, I swear." "I'll shoot." "Hey, hey, it's..." "It's me." "It's John." "Just put the gun down." " There you go." " John?" "There you go." "Just put it down." "Yeah." "There you go." "Good." "I got you." "Ready?" "Kara?" "Kara!" "Kara?" "Kara, where have you been?" "Jim's in trouble." "I need your help." "I'm sure he's fine." "In fact, I bet he's better than before." "No, he's not." "John's gone crazy." "We have to get out of here right now." "Why?" "Don't you want to be a part of something greater?" "Kara, what's wrong with you?" "I'll show you the meaning of true sisterhood." "Kara, snap out of it." "Hey, that hurts." "Ow!" "Ow!" "Angela!" "Ow!" "Ow!" "Sick!" "Dah!" "You utilize John's skills much better than we do." "How?" "Are you all right?" "Yeah, I think so." "We should..." "We should find Seth." "Yeah, uh, we should get to the car." " All right, yeah." " Let's go." "What was that?" "How did you move like that?" "I don't know." "John." "He attacked me." "Just like Kara." "I was forced to shoot him." "Quadrant four sweep complete." "Location acquired." "His body was right here." "Where'd it go?" " I don't know." " Wait." "Where are you going?" "How do you know how to use John's gun?" "I don't know, I just do." "Don't move." "Put the gun down." " All right." " Don't hurt us!" "Do it now." "Step away from the gun." "Okay." "Step away from the gun." "We have eyes on two." "Copy that." "Inbound with one."

"We have readings of a strong electromagnetic disturbance in the area." "Any idea where it's coming from?" "Could we see some credentials?" "Ma'am, that's classified, but I can assure you that we're here to help." "Jim, Angela, we should cooperate." "Your friend's smart." "You should listen to him." "Any idea where that blast came from?" "Just over that ridge." "I'll show you." "Ross, Seto, provide an escort." "That's double time, boys." "We just want to get a visual." "Proceed with extreme caution." "Copy that." "What's taking them so long?" "I don't know." "Come on." "Come on." "Seth!" "Oh, please no!" "Ross, Seto, report!" " Seth!" " Oh, my gosh." "Ross, Seto, report!" "What's going on?" "Geez." "Okay."

"We've gotta get him out of here right away." "I won't make it." "Unh!" "Here, take this." "What's this for?" "We're part of a covert task force... fighting to keep the human race from extinction." "Extinction from what?" " From aliens." " I don't believe this." "There's a group of grays who've developed biological control mechanisms."

"Show it to her." "She'll know what to do." "I'll fight them off." "Do it!" "Come on, let's go, now!" "Whoa, whoa." "Wait, wait." "Where are we going?" "Our car." "It might be out of the blast radius." "Dr. Victoria Jansen!" "Trust no one else!" "Aah!" "Die!" "Wait!" "Hang on!" "Hold on a sec." "I need a break." "Oh, my gosh." "Oh!" "Do you think Seth is still alive back there?" "It's possible." "Why aren't you affected?" "Did you ever get those migraines checked out?" "Do you know what they're from?" "They think it's some sort of anemia." "Weirdly shaped red blood cells." "Maybe it's protecting you." "Whatever it is, we need to move fast." " Can you keep going?" " Yeah." " All right, let's go." " All right." "Attention, Alpha Tango Echo 53." "Target lock has been lost." "Resuming sweep pattern." "Full report when visual has been reacquired." "What the fuck?" "Aah!" "That's Kara." "We need to get to the car." "Take this." "Jim, I can't." "Take this." "You gotta get out of here and tell the world about this, all right?" " Uhh!" " Aah!" "We go now." "Come on!" "Okay." "You can do this." " Come on, Angela!" " Oh, shit." "What the...?" "Oh, my gosh." "Oh, no." "Don't move!" "He's walking towards us!" " Don't move, I'll shoot!" " Do something!" "Still coming." "Back off!" " Shoot him in the head!" " Back off!" "Come on, let's go." "Shit, what..." "I shot him in the head!" "Oh, no!" "Well, where do I shoot him now?" "Try the liver!" "All right!" "Oh, my gosh." "I think that worked!" "How'd you know?" "The liver filters and processes blood." "More like a lucky guess." "Lucky." "Let's go!" "Oh, my gosh." "Aah!" "Aah!" "Oh!" "Jim!" "Kara..." "Still don't understand you, Jim." "How do you resist?" "What are you?" "Come join us." "Share in our collective knowledge and find out." "I'm fine just how I am." "Really?" "Look how pathetic humans are without us!" "Angela!" "Kill me." "Please." "I can't stop myself... from doing these horrible, horrible things." "Fight it, okay?" "The voices!" "Everything feels better when I listen." "There's a cure, okay?" "Listen to me!" "It's a hunger." " It's an insatiable hunger!" " Stop!" "You're my best friend." "There's no cure, Angela." "Kara, back!" "There's no cure." "I know there's no cure." "It's in me." "It's in me!" "Kill me, please." "I can't." "I'm so sorry." "I'm sorry, Kara, I can't." "That's because you're weak!" "You're all weak!" "Oh, my God." "Kara!" "Oh, oh!" "What have I done?" "Oh, I am so sorry." "No, no, no." "No, please." "Please." "Aah!" "Ange." "Ange!" "What?" "We need to get out of here." "You were always leaving me." "I'm not leaving you." "If they look like us, they sound like us... they know how to push our buttons." "Seth..." "We'll try to get him back." "I should've never let you go." "You're damn right." "Jim!" "Marco..." "Aw, fuck." "It's your line, Jim." "Polo!" "Come on." "Uhh!" "Hey, Jim!" "It's me." "Your buddy Seth." "You're not Seth." "Who's to say I'm not?" "Just a better version of Seth." "Ah!" "The Seth I knew was a good person." "Oh, is he?" "Aah!" "He was about to marry the love of your life!" "Fuck!" "She's better off without me." "It's not too late, Jim." "You can still join us." "This is our gift to humanity." "Doesn't feel like Christmas to me." "We can solve all the world's problems!" "Never let idiots with the loudest voices run our world!" "Because they'll have to listen to us." "Fuck." "We're not here just to follow orders." "Why'd you want to join the CIA?" "That's about following orders." "Isn't it the same?" "I want to fight for something I believe in." "Fight for somebody... who can't fight for themselves!" "Fuck!" "You're an idealistic fool, Jim." "Aah!" "Dah!" "Nothing can stop us." "Aaah!" "Nothing is stronger than us." "You have John's skills, which are formidable." "But I have everyone else's." "Wake up, Seth." "Wake up!" "Ohh!" "Aah!" "Careful, Jim." "That's a sensitive area." "Did you even tell Angela why you left?" "That you can't have kids?" "You're a coward, Jim." "I'm sorry." "No!" "Seth." "Take care of Angela for me." " Jim!" " Let her go, it's fine." "I found the doctor." "She can help us." "Oh, Seth." "No, it's not him." "I couldn't get him back." "This is Dr. Jensen." "You're Jim?"
