"NARRATOR:" "Previously on Defiance..." "We are a lie that's kept us together for all these years." "What lie?" "I never lied to you." "You taught me to believe we're the same." "Yeah, we both grew up with blood on our hands." "It made you okay with killing." "But not me." "Would you kill this human in exchange for your husband's life?" "(SCREAMING)" "No." "When I close my eyes I can only picture Alak as a little boy." "I keep remembering this one day." "We encountered a hellbug." "I grabbed Alak in my arms and I ran." "I held my son close, and I whispered," ""I will always protect you."" "Now I realize that was a lie." "(ENGINE WHIRRING)" "(CHUCKLES)" "You killed Christie." "No, I did it to save your..." "Shut your lying mouth!" "Always an excuse." "You've never told the truth." "Alak?" "(GRUNTING)" "(GLASS BREAKING)" "(SPEAKING CASTITHAN)" "(GRUNTING)" "Don't hurt him!" "(WAILING)" "Do I have your attention?" "Good." "You, my child." "Have been favored, indulged." "I supported your choices." "I embraced Christie as my hanya tavo and convinced your father to accept the marriage." "While you were captured, I thought of nothing but you." "I destroyed the Arch and betrayed my town to protect you from harm!" "Christie..." "Christie chose death." "She did it to save your child." "She was a mother who sacrificed everything for her bloodline." "(SPITTING)" "You ungrateful coward." "It is you who has shamed our family." "Luke?" "Is he alive?" "My God." "Luke." "Well." "At least now we know the wee one's name." "Hurry, please!" "He's killing her!" "(BABY CRYING)" "Hand me a blanket." "Yes, Favi." "Luke is a fine name for a boy." "What are you doing?" "Taking my son somewhere safe." "Far away from you." "Move." "I will not allow this." "Get out of my way, or I will kick you down the stairs." "Let's all calm down!" "Not feeling very calm today, Dad!" "Alak Tarr!" "It's the lawkeeper." "I said step aside!" "Settle down." "What's the problem here?" "There's no problem here." "As you can see, we've been reunited with our son." "Andina tells me Alak attacked Stahma with a knife." "Andina is not a bright girl." "Clearly, she was mistaken." "Is that true, Andina?" "Were you mistaken?" "I get confused sometimes." "This is a very emotional moment for our family." "If you wouldn't mind leaving us alone to sort it all out." "And where have you been all this time?" "I was a prisoner in Rahm Tak's camp." "I was there the day you and Irisa took out the net-cutter." "It was a terrifying ordeal." "We're just learning of it now." "I need to know everything you saw." "My son will be happy to share all the details with you once he's had a hot bath and a meal." "With his family." "In private." "They want you to leave so the three of us can get our stories straight." "You see, they're afraid that I might contradict one of the many lies they've told you." "Alak, stop talking." "They're working as spies for the VC." "They blew up the Arch." "Go!" "Go!" "Son of a bitch." "(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)" "Ripped By mstoll" "Okay, I think that's all of us." "Okay." "To all of those of you who volunteered to help us with this manhunt, our town thanks you for your service." "Now, as far as we know, our fugitives are still in town." "This gives us a radius of searching of at least five miles." "People, I need you to understand that apprehending Datak and Stahma Tarr is not about payback." "You tell these people what you told me." "Rahm Tak is ready to make his move." "I heard him bragging about it." "Can he succeed?" "About a week after you guys bombed that net-cutter," "I saw him buy a truckload of weapons from an arms dealer." "Who?" "What was his name?" "I don't know." "He was a blonde guy, musk-ox coat, Bio-man bodyguard." "The weapons had the Von Bach Industries logo on them." "So the enemy has Von Bach tech and we've got what, slingshots?" "People, Defiance Valley is a giant terraformed basin." "There's only three ways in." "Through Bissel Pass, which we have sewn up with the stasis nets." "Underground, possibly through either" "Old Saint Louis or through the mines." "Or through the mountains, by foot or some sort of aerial assault." "It's hard to prepare without knowing the invasion plan." "Which is exactly where Datak and Stahma come in." "They've been working as Rahm's spies." "And, thanks to Alak, we know they've been in regular contact." "So if anybody knows his plans, it's the Tarrs." "So our job is to find them, capture them, interrogate them and find out what that plan is." "Do we understand?" "Okay." "We're going to need searches." "House to house, street to street." "Poole and Enriquez, your job, search the Hollows." "What was that look?" "What look?" "When Alak was describing the arms dealer, you had a reaction." "No reaction." "We need to hear this." "Conrad's blonde." "Conrad Von Bach?" "Yes." "Okay, yes." "Alak is clearly describing my ex-boyfriend who is clearly selling weapons to our greatest enemy." "I'm angry and ashamed, but there's nothing I can do about it." "Well, maybe he's still in broadcast range." "Call him." "Amanda and Berlin, you two take..." "Darby Square." "Thank you." "I haven't spoken to him in 2 years." "What am I supposed to say?" "Tell him Defiance wants to buy his product." "The town can't afford his product." "Maybe you leave that part out." "Report to your team leaders on the hour, every hour." "And these searches both in the immediate and outlying areas," "I want to be in a logical and systematic manner." "Alak, you're with me." "Irisa, I need you to sit on the Tarr house on the off chance they double back and try and snatch their grandson." "People, let's do it by the numbers." "Clear and intelligent." "Be careful out there." "You know, I'm perfectly capable of guarding my own son." "I said you're with me." "And if you do spot the Tarrs, do not engage them." "Chirp me on my hailer." "I'll come running." "So I'm a baby sitter now." "It's a job that doesn't require picking up a gun." "Where are we going?" "I'll tell you when we get there." "Why are you dragging me along?" "In case your parents try and kill you." "Oh." "(SPEAKING IRATHIENT)" "Why all the fuss about two spies when the whole VC army is poised to invade us?" "I'm afraid for my family." "Irathients have nothing to fear." "Rahm Tak will be good for the seven races." "He'll drive the humans out." "(SPEAKING ENGLISH) Here." "It's filthy." "It's better to blend in." "This won't work." "They have the entire town looking for us." "That's why we need to leave." "I have weapons and cash hidden in the garden by the Hollows." "Retrieve them." "I'll arrange for a roller and a way to get the stasis nets lowered." "Meet me under the pedestrian bridge in 90 minutes." "And if you're not there?" "I'll be there." "What about the baby?" "He's better off with Alak." "A son belongs with his father." "But we have each other." "Just like we did when we first arrived on this planet." "And just like then, we will survive and prosper." "Do not lose faith!" "I made you a promise back then and it still holds." "As long as I am breathing, you will be safe." "We'll, we'll make our way to Key Diego." "We'll buy a boat and anchor up along the coast line." "I hear it's rich with sea otter." "A simple life." "I find the notion very attractive." "Yes." "I married well." "Be careful." "I am very proud of all of you." "It's been a brutal winter, filled with blood and hardship away from your families." "Plunder has been scarce since Tucumcari." "Even my head collection is looking bedraggled, isn't it?" "(GRUNTING)" "(CROWD LAUGHING)" "But a thaw is coming, my friends." "The first kiss of spring." "In a few days we will ride into Defiance." "We will fill our bellies, fill our pockets, and savor the sweet sounds of over" "2,000 pink-meats crying out for mercy." "(CROWD CHEERING)" "We will deny them mercy the way they denied us when we first arrived here." "Looking for nothing more than a home to call our own." "Look around, friends." "We are home!" "(CHEERING)" "General." "The lookouts have spotted a rider on approach." "From where?" "Defiance?" "No, from the southwest." "I'm curious." "Let 'em get close." "We ride for Defiance!" "(CHEERING)" "Identify yourself." ""When Heaven falls to earth, peace shall reign."" "I'm looking for Rahm Tak." "You found him." "Reveal yourself." "Volubela." "Hello, Rahm." "If you smell as dirty as you look, you'll be sleeping alone tonight." "Come on, everyone, give Volubela a proper welcome!" "It's time for celebration and news from home." "Open an old-earth wine, stoke the cooking fires, and slaughter the fatted calf with music from David Bowie?" "Volubela, I gift you a feast in your honor!" "Oh, Rahm." "You're such a good husband." "(CROWD CHEERING)" "Holy crap." "Close your mouth, kid." "T'evgin." "Where is he?" "You're healing well." "I need to talk to T'evgin right now." "I believe you're back to normal." "It is rude to stare." "What brings you here, Lawkeeper?" "You got a ship in orbit, right?" "It has a name." "Tsuroz." "It's got scopes and sensors and the like?" "Where are you going with this?" "The VC are about to make a move on the town." "I got two Votanis Collective fugitive spies on the loose in Defiance and I can't find 'em." "I need satellite imaging on the ground." "To help find your spies." "Maybe take a look at the VC camp, troop movements and placements." "I will not take sides in your war." "This is not our war." "Rahm Tak is a member of the Votanis Collective, your sworn enemy." "Defiance goes down, he's coming after you and your gulanite next." "If it happens, I will deal with it." "Kindzi." "My father is also my commander." "I support his decision." "Helping us is in your best interests." "Don't you understand that?" "This doesn't make any sense." "Why wouldn't you help us?" "Unless you can't." "Ooh." "That trip down from orbit, that was assisted by gravity, wasn't it?" "Now that's pretty easy." "But the trip back up into orbit, that takes a lot more energy." "That's the hard part." "You two are stranded here." "You're stuck." "You're weak." "And you're lying so we don't find out about it, am I right?" "I will not help you." "My reasons are irrelevant." "My mother was here." "That is impossible." "No, I would recognize my mother's scent anywhere." "You're her boy!" "Alak!" "Returned from the Votanis Collective." "I am very glad." "So it's true?" "Alak's mother is well versed in human culture." "I wanted to learn from her to assist us to assimilate here." "She taught me very well." "I'll say." "How many lessons did you have?" "And how recently?" "Stahma's a traitor." "She mentioned this." "Your kidnapping created quite a dilemma for your mother." "Oh, well, that's a real shame." "So at no point did you think to tell us you were in bed with the Votanis Collective?" "Stahma was available and a very willing sex partner." "I could care less about her politics." "Okay." "This is gross." "NOLAN:" "Where is she now?" "I have no idea." "My town..." "My ship is in danger and Stahma Tarr is neck-deep in it." "If I catch you helping her in any way," "I am coming after you with everything I got." "Let's go." "Not a word." "I will copulate with anyone" "I damn well please." "(GROWLING)" "Don't move." "Stahma Tarr, you're under arrest." "Please." "I've done nothing wrong." "This was all my husband's doing." "Save it, haint." "Very well." "(STRAINING)" "(GRUNTING)" "(GROANING)" "I feel completely at home." "Not completely." "And that is why I am here, husband." "It's time for you to come back to Brasilia." "I know, the children miss me." "Tell them their father is doing work here, important work." "Let's tell them together." "Hmm?" "Come home." "What's going on, Vol?" "Why did you ride all the way up here?" "Why do you think?" "Vice Chancellor Voske sent you." "She knows you've gone rogue." "They all do." "Get out." "(SIGHS) This assignment of yours." "It was supposed to be a simple scouting mission." "We met resistance." "From the human farmers whose homes you've burned down?" "From the human children I've seen hanging from trees?" "It's better to ask forgiveness than permission." "This world barely survived one war between human and Votan." "There won't be a second Pale War, if there is no one left to fight." "I will be received and celebrated as a hero when I return." "Do you really believe our sons will see you that way?" "Once they learn their father has perpetuated genocide in their name?" "Long before they were born, back on Casti when the Arks were being constructed, our government promised kwonyo gyendo, a Votan world." "Ours and ours alone." "Our sons will live to see that promise fulfilled." "It was a foolish promise, made in ignorance." "Our leaders did not know Earth would turn out to be inhabited." "They knew." "They had to." "So the humans of Earth must suffer for our mistake?" "Someone has to." "The Collective disagrees." "And they're prepared to forgive and grant you clemency." "But only if you will stop this crusade." "And if I refuse?" "Rahm." "Oh, Rahm, come home with me." "Please." "Lay down my burden." "Resume a normal life." "It's tempting." "Then be tempted." "(MOANING)" "(BREATHING HEAVILY)" "(BREATHING HEAVILY)" "(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)" "So, your mom and T'evgin..." "Okay." "Can we just drop it, please?" "BERLIN: (OVER CB) Nolan?" "What's up, Berlin?" "Datak just broke into Doc Yewll's office." "I'm on my way back." "Keep an eye on him." "Shhh." "I need your help getting out of town." "I hope you washed your hands." "It's flu season." "Please." "You ever heard of the term high maintenance?" "You should get it tattooed on your forehead." "Are you gonna insult me or help me?" "First one, then the other." "Here." "This should help you with your cause." "Thanks, Meh." "You should come with us." "I don't think so." "Why not?" "You don't owe this town any loyalty." "Amanda and Nolan tore the very skin from your back." "They did it to save a life." "An Omec life." "Why is this even a conversation?" "I've had some time to think about it and..." "Amanda doesn't make the same distinctions that you and I do." "To her, all lives are equally valuable." "She's such a sweet girl." "Perhaps you should build a statue in her honor." "I can't help it." "It's the damn braid." "They're on the move." "Well, should we grab him?" "Eventually, he'll lead us to your mother, and then we'll grab 'em both." "Yeah." "Right." "You're good at this." "Good news, daughter." "Our gulanite levels have reached 60%." "When they reach 75%..." "Tell it to your alabaster whore." "It is tradition for Omec to have many partners." "Family or otherwise." "You and I have not been traditional." "True." "Your life is less rich for knowing only my touch." "I'm not jealous." " Good." " I'm disappointed." "Why?" "When I was a child, you didn't tell me sweet lies like the other fathers, pretending I would live a long and full life." "You sat me on your lap, looked me in the eye, and told me that our suns would soon collide, and all life on our planet would be extinguished." "You told me the truth." "I am and always will be your first father." "You should have told me she'd been here." "And that you laid with her." "You're right." "Stahma means nothing." "She's merely entertainment." "She'd better be." "How do you plan to get the stasis nets lowered?" "Well, sweet pea, how about this?" "A dangerous pandemic at the Spirit Riders' camp." "I-rath flu." "Only I know how to stop it from spreading." "Well, that ought to work." "She's here." "Go get her." "I'm risking my life." "Ask nicely." "DATAK:" "Please." "DOC:" "Uh-oh." "Lawkeeper, 12 o'clock." "Shtako." "Got to go." "Got to go." "What are you doing?" "Saving my wife." "Wish me luck." "Grab him, now!" "DALAK: (SPEAKING CASTITHAN)" "NOLAN:" "Come on!" "(GRUNTING)" "(CONTINUES SPEAKING CASTITHAN)" "NOLAN:" "Hey!" "(SPITTING)" "You're a disgrace to your family, seed better left spilled!" "(SPEAKING ENGLISH) Enough!" "You don't deserve to carry the Tarr name." "You think I want it?" "Your name is a curse." "Especially in this town." "Okay, visiting hours are over." "No." "I'm not going anywhere." "I want to hear what he has to say." "Suit yourself." "See, here's my dilemma." "Everything you say sounds perfectly reasonable." "You were prisoners, forced to collude with the enemy to keep your son alive." "A plausible story that, taken on face value," "I can understand." "Hell, I can even sympathize with you." "Well, that's very decent of you." "It does not, however, explain the fact that you committed acts of terror and treason against the people of Defiance." "It doesn't explain why you've been lying to me ever since you got back into town." "Hell, I don't even know that you're not lying to me right now." "So you're gonna torture him?" "I'm going to do whatever I need to do to get the job done." "I have nothing useful to tell you." "Do your worst." "I intend to." "ALAK:" "Whoa!" "Whoa!" "Get your hands off my son." "Well, you seem awfully concerned for him when a moment ago you were saying he was a disgrace to the family name." "Shtak, Nolan!" "You can't do this!" "I can do whatever I want!" "You're bluffing." "(LAUGHS)" "Now, your son said that Rahm Tak has a bunch of fancy new weapons and a plan to enter Defiance." "Tell me what that plan is!" "This is all your fault." "I spied for the Collective under extreme duress." "I have no love or loyalty for Rahm Tak." "I know nothing of his plans." "NOLAN:" "Lies!" "At the camp, Stahma and I were forced to humor him." "Liar!" "Ahhh!" "He told us nothing." "Nothing!" "You don't want to tell me the plans, say goodbye to your little boy." "Believe me!" "Please!" "Please!" "I don't know anything." "I swear to you." "Don't kill him!" "I swear to you, I'm telling the truth!" "Don't kill him." "Please!" "Nolan!" "Nolan, he's my only child." "(WEEPING)" "What do you think?" "You believe him?" "Yeah." "I believe him." "(LAUGHING MANIACALLY)" "(CONTINUES LAUGHING MANIACALLY)" "You were both bluffing." "Oh, well played." "(LAUGHS)" "Well played." "Andina?" "Andina!" "Andina?" "Luke." "Luke's right here." "Where's Andina?" "At the market." "She ran out of makfyegyo." " Hey." " I said I watched Bear." "Bear?" "Bear is what Pilar called him." "LUKE: (WHIMPERING)" "When were you guys with Pilar?" "Nolan and I found her with the baby in the woods outside of the VC camp." "So it was you guys who rescued him?" "Huh?" "What about Pilar?" "Nolan shot her." "Good." "On our way back to Defiance," "I noticed he liked to stare up at the sky." "So I pointed out all the clouds shaped like different animals." "He started crying after Andina left." "Hey." "Well, I brought him outside." "I thought maybe a look up at the sky might calm him." "Oh, here." "He has your eyes." "(COOING)" "Uh-huh." "(COOING)" "Ah..." "Thank you." "I'm just doing my job." "No, I mean thanks for saving my son." "I don't want to hurt you." "What do you want?" "Together we will drive to Bissel Pass." "You will order the stasis nets lowered." "We will travel somewhere far away, somewhere safe." "Once I am convinced Nolan has not followed us," "I will free you." "That's a lawkeeper's gun." "Whose blood is on it?" "One of the deputies." "He tried to arrest me." "You're a terrorist, you know that, right?" "I'm a mother who loved her son." "Perhaps more than I should have." "Don't laugh at me." "Oh, hey, I'm just taking a moment to enjoy what a great mother you are, Stahma." "You love Alak so much, you had to kill his wife!" "Just like Kenya." "You loved her so much you had to kill her." "You are so beautiful, Stahma." "(GRUNTING)" "(GLASS BREAKING)" "You're not good." "You're not loving." "You're just a vicious, nasty thug." "I think one of us is going to die." "(PANTING)" "It would have been so easy for me to blow up the Arch while you were still inside it." "I chose not to kill you then, and I choose not to kill you now." "(GROANS)" "I hope you go to your grave wondering why." "(SPEAKING FRENCH)" "(SPEAKING FRENCH)" "Drinks are on me." "What are we celebrating?" "It's a thank-you." "Why didn't you tell me it was you and Irisa who rescued Luke?" "Didn't seem to matter that much." "You rescued my son." "Think it'd be better for him if I was less like me and more like you." "I'm weak." "Not true." "You survived seven months of captivity in the wild with a madwoman and kept your son alive." "You escaped from Rahm Tak's camp and helped us ferret out a couple of spies." "In my book, that makes you one smart, capable, strong young man." "Doesn't make me a good father." "Well, if you're trying to hold me up as an example there, you're going to be sorely disappointed." "(SIGHS) My version of parenting was to take a perfectly good kid and try and turn her into a stone cold killer." "I screwed her up royally in the process." "No." "Irisa's the best." "She presents well." "Actually, that's not true." "She doesn't present well." "Not at all." "But you love her." "Mmm." "I'd die for her." "And she loves you back?" "I guess." "Maybe that's enough?" "Couple of screw-ups like you and me?" "We better hope so." "I miss Christie." "I know you do, son." "Anything?" "Nobody's come in or out." "They've been in there a long time." "Should we go in and check on him?" "We wait." "I didn't mean for any of this." "You have to believe me." "You have to forgive me." "(CRYING)" "I'm losing touch with what's important." "I'm losing touch." "(IN ENGLISH) General?" "She was an assassin." "Sent by the humans under the guise of peace." "They're getting smarter." "Then I guess it's high time we teach them a lesson, wouldn't you say?" "Bebe, put on some coffee." "It's time to burn the city." "(CHEERING)" "You know you had this coming." "Tsk." "You bombed the Arch." "You killed people." "Let me ask you..." "How many lives would you be willing to sacrifice for your daughter?" "How many lives have you already sacrificed?" "Oh, leave me out of this." "I'm nothing like you." "You're right about that." "Were you there when they did in Rafe McCawley?" "The man died on his feet, trying to save Christie." "He took down three VC soldiers and wounded Rahm Tak himself." "Stupid." "And noble." "Sounds like Rafe." "Good man." "His heroism shames us all." "Amanda's going to hang me for treason, isn't she?" "Not fair to put it all on her shoulders, but..." "Yeah, she's gonna hang you." "Could I have a dash more salt?" "(GASPING)" "(KNOCKING)" "Stahma!" "I need your help." "Ripped By mstoll"
