"Dad, what's happening?" "This is pan of the epidemic we've been investigating." "Matt was infected." "When was the last time you heard from your mother?" "This morning." "They were arguing about you because you told us to go to Vermont." "Matt didn't even come home last night." "Do you know Eldritch Palmer is?" " One of the most powerful men in the world, yes." " He hired me." " What did you do?" "I worked my ass off to shut the Internet down." "We can get the Master." "He's nesting somewhere in the city, but I need your help." "Where's Kelly?" "Kelly's MIA all day." " Where's Zack, Eph?" " He's with my colleagues." " It's not safe here." " Right, right." "In all your concerned state, you still find time to screw on the rug?" "She's serious." "You have to get out of town as soon as possible." "You hurt my friend, I will cut your heart out." "I love my wife." "She's the mother of my son." "I'd do anything to find her." "Yes!" "Crap." "No." "Come on." "Please." "Work!" "Yes." "Dad." "Dad, come here!" " What is it?" "What's wrong?" " Mom's phone." "It moved." "She's moving." "What are you talking about?" "I lost my phone a couple months ago." "I used this Web site to track it." "So I thought, you know, maybe we could use it on her." " You got online?" " Barely." "It's super slow, but I finally got enough of a signal." "It's going in and out, but I got enough to see the phone move." "You're sure it's moving?" "Yeah, like three blocks." "If she's moving, she's gotta be okay, right?" "It's a good sign." "I'm gonna call her." "Dad, it's ringing." "Hi. it's Kelly." "Leave me a message, and I'll call you right back." "Thanks." "Mom, it's me again." "Call me back, okay?" "Please?" "Maybe it's on silent or something." "Why hasn't she called back?" "What was the location?" "This says..." "Main and Front." "No." "Come on!" "Please, work!" "Shh, shh, shh." "It's okay." "It's okay." "We know her location." "I'll get her." "The president has declared a bank holiday... in an attempt to stabilize the nation's teetering financial system." "Hey." "Hey." "This latest move... comes in the wake of 23 bank failures yesterday." "Despite these measures, the head of the international Monetary Fund... hinted in a news conference today... that the world financial system is now teetering... on the brink of systematic" "What's going on?" "Zack tracked down Kelly's phone." "Good morning, Mrs. Martinez." "The phone is moving." "Where is it?" "Astoria." "Don't say it." "I wasn't gonna." "Kelly could be alive." "The phone is moving during daylight." "She could have gotten out without getting stung." "We did." "They're mobilizing downstairs." "Setrakian has a plan." "I have to do this first." "I didn't mean to hurt you last night." "Nothing makes any sense anymore." "I don't know what I'm saying or doing." "But I knew what I was doing then." "I" " I'm not sorry about that." "I know you're trying to prepare me for the worst." "But I think there's a real chance here." "And so long as there is- Then you should go." "But you must be prepared... for what you might find." "I get it." "Take your weapons." "Any change?" "Still in the same place." "Can't I come?" "I don't wanna just sit here." "No, I need you to track the phone." "Text me if the signal moves." " What if it doesn't go through?" " Keep texting." "Bring Mom back with you." "I tracked the epicenter of the rat-free zone... right down here by the World Trade Center." "I popped down into the tunnels to investigate." "Ended up eye to eye with a few dozen of 'em." "Thai was a fun day." "In my opinion, attacking them head-on- on their own turf- seems like a good way for us all to die." "The thing about rats is they always have a back door." "That's why it's so tricky to catch them." "I'd bet that the vamps- I bet you they have one too." "So this is my thinking, all right?" "We have to look at all the decommissioned tunnels and lines... near the World Trade Center." "Which this map doesn't help us very much." "It'd be great to get online." "I know this great transit archive on there." "The Internet's for shit, so" " Yeah." "Sorry about that." " About what?" "I brought ii down." "Ah." "I think I missed that." "Yeah, not just me, but... my crew." "An old rich guy hired us... to interrupt mobile services and crash most Internet traffic." "Eldritch Palmer." "Preventing the spread of information." "And you helped him?" "I never wanted to hurt people." "I have been trying to figure out a way to make things right." "Can you do that?" "Maybe." "If I can get back into Palmer's offices." " How would you get access?" " I could get her in." "Use my city credentials, fly under the radar." "Sure." " I could be your boss." " Assistant." " Boss." " Details." "I always wanted to get into that building." "Hey, watch where you're going!" "That's all I could steal!" "Hey, baby." "The world's about to end." "Hey, where'd you get that phone?" "That's mine." "It's my phone." "I know you stole it." "Where's the woman you took it from?" " Hey!" " Where did you find it?" "Back off or I'm not telling you shit." "I found this on the street." "Wasn't any woman with it." " You're gonna show me where." " Show me your badge, po-po." " Do I look like a cop?" "I'm a doctor." " For real?" "It's infected." "Jesus Christ." "That's a bad burn." " How long have you had that?" " Got it last week." "Okay, Brea." "Where did you find the phone?" "Help me up." "Thank you." "There." "It was right there." "Did you see the woman driving?" "No." "Matt?" "Matt!" "You know, not talking is pan of what ended my marriage." "Way to be a grown-up!" "Look, if you don't wanna talk, at least let me in." "I need to get ready for work." "Hey." "You're here." "It's a school day, right?" "Yeah, but, like, half the kids are out." "Most of the staff too." "Are they sick?" "I guess." "A bunch of them didn't even bother to call in." "Miranda's gonna release the kids early." "No point with barely half attendance." "What?" "Do you know something?" "Eph warned me about a virus." "Something to do with that plane at JFK." "He said we should leave town." "Seriously?" "Oh, God." "If you wanna let Miranda know." "But I'm getting Zack and I'm getting out of town." "You should too." "Matt?" "Where are you?" "They called a half day at school." "Everyone is sick." "Eph was right." "Matt?" "Enough already." "Did you hear me?" "Eph was right." "And you had him arrested by the FBI." "Oh, my God." "Matt?" "We can speculate" "Zack?" "Sweetheart, where are you?" "...who attempt to- it seems to be- to take matters into their own hands." "Firearm sales have spiked." "There's been a run on survival equipment- propane tanks, generators, canned food and the like." "How are things going out there on the street?" "On line five I've got Ian in Brooklyn." "Go ahead, Ian." "Hi, Gary" "Kelly." "Oh, my word." "Are you okay?" "Where's Zack?" "I'm here to pick him up." "Am I late?" "I- I think I'm late." "We-We dismissed early, and when we couldn't reach you, your friend Diane came to pick him up." "I mean, I" " I know that you carpool." "Look, Kelly," "I think maybe you've been in an accident... and we should get you to a hospital." "Can you get Zack for me?" "Please." "Mm-hmm." "I, uh" "If you'll just excuse me," "I'm just gonna make one call, okay?" "I'll be- I'll be right back." "I'm guessing that she's been in a car accident, and I think that she has a concussion." "Hello?" "Okay, assistant, you believe you're supposed to be there, they'll believe it." "Sure." "You know, this isn't my first dance, O wise and powerful." "So, what's with the old pawnshop guy?" "How are you friends with him?" "I met him last night, same as you." "Really?" "Huh." "You seem to have such a shorthand." "What about you?" "What's your story?" "No story." "What you see is what you get." "Listen, honey." "The pawnshop guy is a vampire killer." "If you can top that story with your mysterious background, then go for it." "Fine." "What do you wanna know about me?" "This guy Palmer." "The guy dicks you over to bring about end times." "If we're going to his building just to borrow his Wi-Fi, then you're wasting my time." "I wouldn't dream of wasting your time." "Hello." "New York Pest Control Services." "We're here to inspect your executive dining facilities." "I don't have you down here." "Well, they don't let us make appointments for inspections." "I can't let you through without an okay from security." "You sure about that?" "I mean, it's pretty much just a quick look-see." "Another box I have to check off for my hard-ass boss." "In and out in 10?" "Hmm?" "Well, it looks like executive dining is in between shifts anyway." "So- Oh, perfect." "Middle elevator." "Twenty-fifth floor." "Thanks, Lauren." "You're the best." "And you have yourself a great day, okay?" "Okay." "Confidence." "It's all about confidence." "Will you follow us, please?" "Confidence or competence?" "Now, look, I don't wanna get you boys in trouble, but as pest inspectors for the City of New York, we have the absolute right to enter any licensed food" "Hey." "Shut up." "All right." "Thank you." "Miss Velders." "Reggie Fitzwilliam." "You remember me?" "'Cause I certainly remember you." "I see you've taken up rat-catching?" "So it appears." "Search them." "Don't touch me." "Use these for catching rats?" "Only really big ones." "So what now?" "Mr. Palmer would like to see you." "No, not you." "Her." "Alone." "Kelly?" "You here?" "We're live at the scene of another in what may be a series of bizarre murders." "This tragic incident claimed the lives... of a young married couple here in Brooklyn tonight." "They were found in the basement of their home... after a neighbor complained of a terrible smell emanating from inside." "Police sources say a disturbing pattern of random violence... has swept across New York City in recent days. " "Police have been inundated with reports of home invasions, attacks" "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "Kel, you scared the crap out of me." "What time is it?" "Kel?" "Kelly?" "Matt did this?" "Are you serious?" "Where's Zack?" "What do you mean, where's Zack?" "Eph said Zack was with him." "Kel, honey, you're freaking me out, okay?" "So I'm gonna take you to the emergency room, okay?" "Mom?" "What's- What's going on?" "Kelly!" "What the hell are you doing?" "What are you doing?" "No!" "Okay!" "Why in God's name would you ever come back here?" "Because I don't like being taken for a ride." "Now I know that Palmer's behind all this." "Evidently, you're fine with being his lackey." "Mr. Palmer is very ill." "I won't let you harm him." "If you try anything- anything at all" " I'll kill you." "Am I clear?" "Miss Velders, as requested." "Ah." "Miss Velders." "I so admire your pluck." "Thinking you and- who- a ratcatcher... could come here and what, dispense with me?" "The mind boggles at the absurdity of the plan." " But the ego behind it- audacious." " You lied to me." "Did we have a deeper transaction than I recall?" "I bought you." "You let me." " Are you a vampire too?" " Hardly." "You wanted to bring the world down, wipe out the human race." "Why would any rational person wanna do such a thing?" "First, don't deny yourself due credit." "You should be taking a bow." "You did exceptional work." "Truly." "I couldn't have done this without you." "Human DNA decays as we age." "Over time it frays and it fails, and we follow suit." "But it's a code that can be rewritten." "Rewrite the software, and you control the hardware- the meat, muscle and tissue that is mankind." "To what end?" "If hacking is about exploring the limits of what is possible, then I am on the verge of achieving... what you would consider the ultimate hack" "cheating death." "Immortality?" "Yes." "Well, thanks for sharing." "It's hard to be on the verge of something so exciting... and not share the good news with someone." "And you are the perfect person." "How's that?" "Well, who would listen to you if you shared it?" "You are insignificant." "You feel how invisible you are?" "That's why you did what you did for me." " Am I right about that?" " Son of a bitch!" "You asshole!" "Let go of me!" "You're the nothing." "You." "We won't see her again." "Get off me." "No, sir, you will not." "Get off me." "[ Master Whispering j Kelly." "Kelly." "Come to me." "Come to me." "Come to me, Kelly." "Kelly." "Come to me." "Kelly." "Rejoice." "Embrace your glorious fate." "Hey, Mr. Charming, remind me to ignore you next time." "Sure." "Next time I will." "We'll do it your way." "We'll shout, yell, shoot our way in." "Yeah, well, it had a better chance." "Turn around." "Relax." "I'm letting you go." "My employer is..." "misguided." ""Misguided" is not the bloody word I would use." "I don't agree with what he's doing." "And so I can hardly carry out an order... to kill the people who are trying to make it right." "Won't your friends here tell on you?" "No, their loyalty is to me." "Then why don't you all join us?" "Help us make this right." "Go." "While you have a chance." "Go." "Diane?" "The only way to be sure we're right is to go down there." "It's night." "I was worried." "Nothing?" "Nothing." "Guess we're not the only ones who struck out, huh?" " No luck with the wife, huh?" " Oh, you're still here?" "Who invited you here exactly?" "Hey!" "She's here just like the rest of us." "Who put you in charge?" "The director of the Centers for Disease Control put me in charge." "You know what?" "I don't need this shit." "If you don't want me, that's absolutely no problem." " I am gone." " Hey, hey, hey." "It's not his decision." "All right?" "Just ignore him." "He doesn't speak for all of us." "It's too dangerous." "At least just wait till morning." "I would rather take my chances out there... than be stuck in here with you assholes!" "Hey." "You got a better deal out there, be my guest." "Dad?" "Hey, buddy." "Did you find Mom?" "Dr. Goodweather." "Nora and I were just about to go over what we discovered." "Just a minute." "You didn't find her?" "No." "I, uh- I did find her phone." "I guess she lost it." "What does that mean?" "I'm not giving up, Zack." "Maybe this is why she hasn't called." "1230." "I know." "That was the street address of our place in Philly... when I was in medical school." "The first place we bought together." "Keep going." "Keep going." " Keep going." " Come on." "It's what you wanted, right?" "Mom, seriously?" "Back deck." "What?" "Check the back deck." "Surprise!" "Do you like it?" "I love it." "I got you good, didn't I?" "Yeah." "Happy birthday." "Z." "You're the best mom ever." "I love the blue." "It's exactly what I wanted."
