"2x01" " Phoenix" "Jones!" "Why...?" "You'd have to ask her that." " Why are you doing this to me?" " Does it really matter?" "Who are you?" "E pluribus unim." "I'm the voice in your head." "You could call me your conscience." "What do you want from me?" " For you to complete your mission." " What mission?" "Don't you remember?" "I'm not an agent anymore!" "Once one of us, always one of us." "Whose side are you on?" "You really don't remember, do you?" "Whose side are you on?" "!" "There are no sides, XIII." "There is only you..." "and me." "And together, we're going to bring down the Empire." "48 hours earlier" "Now is the time to wake up from the nightmare of globalization,  whose only purpose is to ensure that multinational corporations have unimpeded access to the entire planet," "regardless of the effects and consequences on we the people and the environment." "I say it is time to pull back the Government veil of conspiracy." "Synequanon alone has spent hundreds of billions of your tax dollars on projects with no transparency or oversight." "You cannot trust the media!" "You cannot trust the internet!" "You cannot trust industry!" "You cannot trust the Government!" "All will fail you!" " Trust is an asset that is earned." " Amen to that, brother!" "It is time for a civil war." "And those who do not choose sides..." "Join the movement." "...are doomed." "Hey... don't you want to change things?" "You'll eat the food, but you won't take the message." "I don't want anything that comes with a price... here." "It takes a community to enact change;" "to make the world better." " You better get out of here." " I stand for what I believe." " You should too." " I don't get involved." "Why are you doing this?" "What are you doing?" "What are you guys doing?" "!" "Get your hands off him!" "What we do is non-violent." "We are a peaceful organization!" "Don't move!" "No!" "No!" "Leave me alone!" "Enough." "You're alright?" "I guess you're involved now!" "I was a secret agent, betrayed by my own people." "Robbed of my face, my memories, my history." "Hidden in my past is a secret that threatens all humanity." "I search for answers with nothing to hold on to but the tattoo that has become my name." "I am Thirteen." "This way." "You've been hit pretty bad..." "we better take a look." "I've had worse." "Wow." "Nice digs." "Let me get something to clean my wound." "You know, in French..." ""blessée" means to be wounded." "That's where the word "blessing" comes from." "So, what hurts us is actually a gift, a blessing." "Well, those cops blessed you pretty good." "Military?" "I've seen it before." "You're trying to hide it... what you did..." "who you are, but..." "All done." "You'll survive." " I should go." " Hey." "It's none of my business." "I'm sorry." "We all have secrets, you know." " You don't need to hide." " Maybe I do." "Whatever it is you've been through... maybe it all happened so you could change things." "Make them right." "I can help you." "Vargas can help." "He helped me." "We help each other." "That's what we do." "Goddamned bloodsucking ticks!" "I've given the military industrial complex more money than any President in the American history." "What do they want?" "They want more!" "This was always promised money, sir." "The price of getting into office." "You think I've forgotten that?" "Keeping you in office is what we should be focusing on, sir." "We're facing a tough election." "Yesterday's friends tend to become tomorrow's enemies when the polls drop a few points." "You know, there comes a point in a man's life... when you start thinking about your legacy." "About what people will remember you by." "People will remember that you kept them safe, Mr. President." "We will try our best to continue on the same path." "Give me the Secretary of State." "You asked to see me Mr. President?" "Thank you." "Come on sweetheart, let's go..." "Ohh-kay." "I'm gonna keep the driver today and do some shopping." "Would you bring Abigail back with you after work?" "That should be fine." "Samuel!" "Samuel." "You have made us so happy and proud," ""Mr. Chief Operating Officer."" "The title is not what's important Laura." "All those years working at the White House, all those long hours..." "they're finally paying off." "Our dreams are finally coming true, like you said they would..." "Everything I did." "I did because I believe in the greatness of America." "It's my duty." "Still, the stock options sure sweeten the pie." "Yes they did." "Enjoy your shopping." " Goodmorning, sir." " Thank you, Rodney." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Here we go." "Okay, you awake?" "Okay, Aby." "Dear god, please bless Aby and let her have a wonderful day." "Amen." "I love you." "Have fun guys!" "I want to thank you for helping Betty." "She told me you came down pretty hard on those policemen." "Fighting isn't something I'm proud of." "I haven't laid a fist on anyone in a long time." "You stood up for what is right." "Not everyone will get involved." "Most people are so absorbed in their sole issues that they won't thoughtlessly help others." "But you did." "This world is living a lie." "And we can either turn our backs to it or we can take action." "We... all of us, have chosen not to be cowards." "We could use a man like you." "Someone who can take care of himself." " I don't know." "I don't think..." " Please... stay." "We could use you." "Come." "I want to show you something." "Bad idea." "Very bad idea." "He shouldn't even be up here." "I'll be the judge of that, Guapo." "Fine, fine... just stay back a bit while I tie these leads." "We would never bring harm to another human being, but to get them to listen you have to get their attention." " After this action..." " You're crossing your connections." "I've read the Anarchist Cookbook cover to cover, and I've got a degree in electrical engineering." "I think I know what I'm doing." "Aaaahhhh!" " My finger!" " Sit down." "Sit down!" "You're lucky you still have a hand." "Find his fingers!" "Are you okay?" "Ahhhh!" "Bring him to the hospital." " He distracted me!" " If you allow yourself to be distracted then you really don't know what you're doing." "None of you do." "You shouldn't be doing this, it's too dangerous." "And what about you?" "You seem to know a lot about this." "No thanks." "I found one of them." "Ralston!" "Wait!" "You brought him in here." "Get him back." " Max..." " Do it." " Please." " Okay." " Wait!" " What?" "We need to talk." "Look, there's nothing to say." "Okay?" "For what I've seen there... it's not for me." " I'm sorry." " Don't leave." "Do you know what HEARPE is?" "It's a defense program that sends radio waves into the troposphere." "They pretend it's for climate research but what it really does is beyond anything you can imagine." "Its effects on climate, nature, even people are devastating and they're testing it in now in Alaska." "We cannot let this happen and do nothing." "It's got nothing to do with me." "Anyway, you got Max don't you?" "Max wasn't the one who saved me from being beaten to death by the cops." "You're right, we don't know what we're doing... but that's not going to stop us." "We know the difference between right and wrong." "Look, Betty, you and your friends are better off handing out flyers and free soup." " That's not a felony." " Not yet." " I just don't want anyone to get hurt." " Then why are you leaving?" "One small detonation set here, will safely trigger an automatic shutdown of the cooling rods." "It could take Synequanon weeks to get the reactor working again." "What's the point?" "Symbolic." "They think they're safe from terrorism." "We want to show them they are not." "If you help us, you could make sure that no one gets hurt." "Somebody already got hurt." "Any of you know how to pick a wafer lock?" "Avoid a heat sensitive security system?" "Negotiate razor wire?" "No." "But you do." "These keycard locks are dead easy to get around." " I wanna learn." " Yeah?" "Lesson number one:" "This isn't a game." "You don't treat it like one." "You're a natural." "Yeah, no one is." "I was trained for this." "This is it." "Take this out and the power goes down." "Good." "Synequanon's gonna feel it." "Let's do it." " Alright?" " Yeah." " Set." " Okay, let's go." "Amigos." "Today, the Veil struck hard and set back globalization with a symbolic blow!" "And we showed Synequanon that their so-called secure facilities are vulnerable, and that their systems, they can be brought down." "Then let's break some more stuff!" " Yeah!" " Yeah!" "I also wanted to thank, in person, our friend." "Without his help, and his skill, this would not have been possible." "Cheers..." "To our new friend." "To our new friend, cheers." "Thanks." "What does that stand for?" "Luck?" "It never brought me any luck." "It's uh... it's just a reminder." "It's surrounded by scar tissue." "I've tried to cut it off, but it keeps coming back." "I can't even feel it anymore." " What about this one?" " That one still hurts." "How did you get it?" "You can tell me." " Don't you trust me?" " To tell you the truth, the last woman I did trust gave me that scar." "Jones, I need some help!" "Latest polls show Harriet Traymore is in position to succeed incumbent President Carrington." "News One analysts are predicting a Traymore landslide that will be virtually impossible for Carrington to overcome." "Joining us now, republican candidate..." " Give me something to wipe my hands with." " How are you tonight?" "I am great, Mischa, thanks for having me on your show tonight." "What do you say to those who claim you're not ready for the task?" "Or to those who have ridiculed..." "The hell are we gonna do?" "What are we gonna do?" "'Cause I'm not gonna stand by," "I'm not gonna give in to that crazy bitch, no sir." "Look at her..." "I bet she asks God for permission to fart." "Americans clearly believe it's time for change, and they know that's not gonna happen with this incumbent." "Ben Carrington was a General before he was elected President." "But instead of making us truly safe, he has instituted a reactionary..." "That's right." "I don't have a dick so all I have to do is repeat endlessly what my advisors tell me to say and you'll vote for me." "...plunged the economy to the brink of a depression." "It's time for a female touch to restore American's  mention marmelade, maybe apple pie." "I wanna be a mother to all Americans..." "Oh, you are a mother to all Americans..." "Because we all know that it's..." "It's MOM who runs the house in American homes." "So, why should it be any different in the White House." "How does it feel with almost no doubt?" "You'll become President." "Let's talk about the feels right now." "I feel deeply honored and ready to fulfill my duty before God and to serve the people of the great United States." "It is my destiny." " Mr. President." " Have you seen the latest polls?" " Yes, I have." " We are facing political armageddon." "That's maybe a tight bad hyperbolic, sir." "Now... how we gonna to turn this game around?" "Beacuse that suckamom will not get in this office!" "With all due respect, sir." "I think it maybe time for us to face responsibilities and just play fair." "Fair?" "Did you say "fair"?" "Fair is for pussies and losers!" "For a soldier it's do or die." "And don't you forget how you get your office, Miss Secretary of State." "Reynolds." "Give me someone on Traymore." "She is way to uptight not to have hold all bunch of dirty laundry." "I want her fat ass on a platter when I fight against it!" "Yes, sir." "Anything?" "The news sites are all saying the reactor went down due to a software glitch." "Not a word about the Veil." "Bullshit." "They've totally ignored our press release." "They are lapdogs to their corporate masters." "Fantastic." "I lost two fingers for nothing." "Hey, Mozambique, are you sure you know how to use a computer?" "I have a degree in geopolitics and literature, man." "And was on top of my class." "Oh, and just so you know, I'm from Nigeria." " Then why do we call you Mozambique?" " You tell me... ?" "Enough!" "Conio." "Maybe we need to take more radical action?" "We could release animals from a testing facility?" " No one cares about liberating animals." " I do." "The ELF was doing that for a decade and no one gave a squirt of piss." "It was not until someone died that they started to pay attention." "I thought the Veil valued human life above all else." "I know." "We're cursed to be pacifists." "But..." "I am tired of them not listening." "And I'm telling you now, that I'm open..." "I'm sorry, I need to take this." "Frederick?" "Is that you?" "I..." "I don't understand." "Please calm down." "What?" "What danger?" "Right now?" "Okay..." "I will." "I won't." "Are you okay?" "Who was that?" "My brother." "Something's wrong with him." "He said he needs to see me..." "Now." "It's been years." "We don't get along." "Never did." "He works for the Government." "What branch does he work for?" "He's a cryptologist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology." "Look... meet with him." "Just listen." "I'll be here, okay?" "He's here." "For luck." " What's going on, Frederick?" " Sit down, sit down, okay?" "Listen Betty, I heard about that stunt you and your friends pulled off on the Synequanon reactor." "Trust me, you are pissing off all the wrong people." "That's the idea." "That was always the idea with you, these people are dangerous." "I came across something..." "they had me decipher it and um..." "You know everything that you ever said to me, that I always laughed at, well, it's all true, and it is so much worse than you can possibly imagine." "They're testing something new, Betty." "They don't know how to use it, but that never stopped science." "Tesla knew." "After he took half of Siberia he damn knew well to hide it." "Hide what?" "!" "This..." "I analyzed it for them, but what they don't know, is..." "Get in!" "Keep your head down!" "Move!" " Are you okay?" " No." " Who are they?" " Didn't he tell you?" "!" " No!" " What exactly did he tell you?" "Something about, about the Government wanting this..." " What's inside?" " It's an old letter." "It's addressed to professor Henderson, Falmouth, Cornwalls." "Open it." "It's handwritten." "It's dated November 17th, 1894 and it signed "your humble colleague, Nikola Tesla."" "Look, whoever these men work for, they just shot your brother in plain sight for it." "What did he tell you about it?" " Nothing." " Alright, we need to get rid of this car." "Let's go." "Okay, look." "You do exactly as I say and everything will be fine." "Okay, we've gotta split up now." "You're gonna take these stairs up to the subway entrance." "Take the F-line and switch trains twice." "Randomly pick a stop, and then get a cab from there back to the Veil." "Okay?" "Now give me the letter." "If these guys are on us, I'll decoy them." "Look, I promise it'll be safe." "Alright go." "Go." "Hey." "Look..." "you'll do fine." "Okay?" "And I'll meet you back later." "You trust me?" "Go... go, go ,go." " Betty, are you OK?" " Give her some space." " What!" " Leave her alone!" " Explain, man!" " Is everything all right?" "Give her some space!" "Leave her alone!" "Listen!" "Everyone!" "There's something that all you need to know." "I..." "I want you to keep this with you." "For your protection." " Really?" " Just in case." "I don't know what's happening, Max." "No one does." "You want me to stay with you?" "You looking for this?" "You tricked me." "I guess I let my guard down with you." "I thought you trusted me." " It's not that." " What then?" "My brother died before he could tell me what this letter meant." "I only wanted to protect you." "But I guess you're pretty good at taking care of yourself." "Stay... don't leave." "I need you." "It doesn't seem that way." " Come with me." " I can't." "You haven't the slightest idea of what you're dealing with." "These people are beyond dangerous." "I was one of them." "I was a CIA operative." "I killed for them." "That's why I was in hiding." "They won't stop until they find you and get what they want." "And once they find you..." "they will kill you." "Do you want that?" "My brother died for those papers, his blood is on them." "It's all I have of him now." "And I'm not giving them to anyone." "What about your blood, Betty?" "Thirteen." "Beautiful girl, Betty." "She turned on you as well?" "Who are you?" "You don't have any luck with women, do you?" "I was surprised to see you this afternoon, but then, I see you all the time." "I guess it's just, fate." "Fate." " What do you want from me?" " For you to complete your mission." " What mission?" " Don't you remember?" " Whose side are you on?" " There were no sets, XIII." "There was only you and me." "And together we are going to break down the Empire." "A gang shooting at public park today has left one man dead and the other in the hospital after that getaway vihicle run over him at the high speed." "The victim has been identified as Frederick Barnowsky, a former cryptologist for a federal agency, which he was recently dismissed from for alleged cocaine abuse and depression." "It is believed that Barnowsky was attempting to purchase crystal methamphetamine, in a deal that went wrong." "After the break, Action News Meteorologist, Darren Goode, will try to explain this wacky weather we're having." "Yes." "What is it?" "Don't we have a meeting on the books for tomorrow?" "Have you been watching the news?" "You mean the polls?" "Carrington's taking a beating." "Don't get smart with me, Amos." "Does Synequanon have any intelligence on the murder of a research scientist on Government payroll." " A Frederick Barnowsky?" " I've never heard that name, and that is a very dangerous inference, Jones." "Synequanon has its hands in wetwork operations around the globe." "Don't talk to me like I'm ignorant to that." "Don't make accusations you can't prove, Jones." "I was your boss, not too long ago, remember." "And now you're not." "You chose the corporate sector." "Good for you." "Now, I drive our conversations and I need to know you were as ignorant to this as I was." "Oh, I'm as blind, deaf and mute as the three wise monkeys." "Listen, Jones, I'm hoping you'll follow my lead on this mess with the Chinese." "As long as it serves the best interest of the American People." "You're starting to sound a little like Harriet Traymore." "Who knows." "She might be your next President." "Something tells me you wouldn't be totally against that idea." "Goodnight Jones." "We went..." "far." "Maybe too far." "Our newest member warned us we were in danger and then disappeared..." "without a trace." "And then Betty's brother died." "Maybe we should disband." "It's my fault, Max." "I'm the only one involved in all this." "I put your lives in danger, I have to live with that." "I don't see why the Veil must disband only because of me." "I can leave if you want." "What are you talking about?" "Are you crazy?" "He's right." "We are all in this together." "Betty, please." "Stay." "Are we ready for the next move?" "About time you got back here." "The point is he's here." "Welcome, my brother." "It's good to see you." "You and Betty make quite a good team." "We're just getting warmed up." "Isn't that right, babe?" " What are you talking about?" " The next move." "What is that?" "In three days, Synequanon's COO and former National Security Advisor Colonel Amos, is meeting Xu Corporation, it's a Chinese conglomerate with fingers in every industry." "Now their CEO, Mr. Terrence Pong, is here to discuss business agreements regarding climate research and technology." "This is the time to strike, my friends." "The time to get your voices heard." " What do you suggest?" " A big... bang." "Blow up Synequanon headquarters?" "What are you outta your mind?" "Well, I'm not the one who started this." "I'm just here to help you finish it." "I have to admit." "The man is not totally wrong, you know." "First, you speak of non violence, now you suggest we blow up a building that has hundreds of innocent people inside?" "Not at that time of day, no." "No, no." "The cleaners are out by 3:30 A.M." "Security does a patrol just before their change over at eight, but then there's just one guy, in a security bunker, which is shielded." "Where have you been?" "!" "You're over an hour past schedule!" "I wanted to be sure the DHS wasn't on my ass." "Or yours, buddy!" "It's too late, there'll be people in the building!" "A few acceptable casualties will only increase the power of the statement we're about to make." " "Acceptable casualties?" "!" You're insane!" " We don't have time fothis, Ralston." "The DHS will already be tracking the missing fertilizer." "It's now or never." "Come on, go." "I was up for this." "I was the only one for it... but you've gone too far!" "I'm calling Vargas." "You're right about one thing, Ralston." "I have changed." "Enough, enough." "As chief operative officer of Synequanon" "I will not acquiesce to these ridiculous demands." "And what is so ridiculous, Mr. Amos?" "Full transparency into our DARPA-funded far-North climate research is a clear and direct violation of U.S. National security protocols." "Mr. Amos, it is no secret that you were once the National" "Security Advisor, but perhaps your business acumen is being compromised by your patriotism." "Let me make one thing very clear to you, Mr. Pong." "What's good for Synequanon will be very good for the United States." "This is not national security we are negotiating now, but business." "If you are now a businessman, you should act like one." "Mr. Pong." "Take your offer and shove it up your yellow, Chinese ass." "{*speaking Chinese }" "Gentlemen!" "Please, please..." "Our Governments have asked us to reach an agreement today for the better of the environment." "Now if we're gonna reach these incredibly ambitious emission reductions goals we are both gonna have to give both sides." "You're gonna have to learn to get along." "No." "Synequanon will meet the minimum carbon emission requirements of the Carrington Accord." "We will not share top secret research and development with our enemy and competitor." "Ever." "I think there's been enough talking." " Mr. Pong if I could just..." " Madam Secretary of State, you're clearly an intelligent woman, and a good mediator, but our demands are our demands." "Bear in mind your country is two trillion dollars in debt to mine." "We should be treated with respect and friendship of partners;" "not like bitter adversaries." "Good day." "{*speaking Chinese }" "Well, I can say with confidence that the President is not gonna be happy about that." "Jones, it's inconsequential to me whether the President's feelings are hurt." "We need the support of the Xu Corporation for the Carrington Accord, Amos." "If we do not have the participation of the Chinese the entire thing is gonna be dismissed as irrelevant." "If we want the Chinese to comply with the Accord, and bring down carbon emissions, we are going to have to give." "I have to take this." " Unbelievable." " Sorry to bother you." "I just wanted to let you know I dropped off Aby at daycare a little early today." "I might be late tonight." "Could you bring her home?" "I'm in the middle of something." "I'll get back to you." "You know, Jones." "It might be easier to bomb the Chinese back into a pre-industrial stone age." "That would cut their emissions too." "You can't park here, man!" " I've got a delivery." " What delivery?" "A new Xerox." " I'm gonna have to call in to clear it." " No problem." "I'll be here." "You seem to forget that a large part of Synequanon's funding comes from Government DARPA money." "That is funding that could be rescinded at any time." "Synequanon is the largest Government contractor in the greatest nation on Earth." "We are integral in the success of six wars that your administration is currently waging." "Don't forget that Jones." "Without Synequanon you do not have Icarus Drones or light ceramic armor or HEARPE for that matter." "I'm not gonna remind you of the thirteen thousand civilian specialists that we subcontract, or the offshore rendition camps we run for Uncle Sam because he doesn't want to get his hands dirty." "The White House is run by children and grand-parents." "We have the strength to be the oil in the machine of this sacred Democracy, now if your administration is interested in bartering away the preeminence of America, I will stop you." "The Associated Press?" "Please connect me to the news desk." "Asylum." "Good morning."
