Woman: WE'RE NOT JUST ON THE LEADING EDGE.
WE'RE LEADING THE CHARGE.
TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION FOR THE FUTURE.
RENAUTAS.
DOING GOOD IS GOOD BUSINESS.
[ Distorted ] THIS IS HERO TRUTHER.
I'M HERE TO EXPOSE THE LIES AND DISTORTIONS,
TO SPEAK FOR THE SILENCED VOICES.
THERE'S A WAR GOING ON.
IT'S BEING WAGED RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR DOOR.
THE CASUALTIES ARE OUR NEIGHBORS, FRIENDS, AND FAMILY.
WE STAND ON THE FRONT LINES, YET DO NOTHING TO DEFEND THEM.
I REMEMBER A HOPE WE ONCE SHARED
THAT OUR SPECIES WAS CAPABLE OF SOMETHING TRULY EXTRAORDINARY.
Man: OH, MY GOD! [ CROWD GASPS ]
DO YOU REMEMBER HOW THAT STORY BEGAN?
20 SECONDS THAT CHANGED THE WORLD.
Reporter: ...MIRACULOUSLY HEALING IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA.
MY NAME IS CLAIRE BENNET. THIS IS ATTEMPT NUMBER...
EXPERTS ARE CALLING IT RAPID CELLULAR DEGENERATION.
I GUESS I'VE KIND OF LOST COUNT.
Truther: SHE WASN'T ALONE.
HUNDREDS WERE INSPIRED TO SHARE THEIR ABILITIES.
EVOLVED HUMANS -- EVOS.
MY NAME IS OLUWOLE ADEYEMI.
AND THAT WAS ATTEMPT NUMBER ONE.
[ SPEAKS ARABIC ]
OKAY, KEEP THE CAMERA ON ME.
[ SPEAKING MANDARIN ]
[ SPEAKING SPANISH ]
Truther: THEY REPRESENTED THE PINNACLE OF HUMAN POTENTIAL.
WE WERE ON THE VERGE OF SOMETHING INCREDIBLE.
AND THIS IS MY FIRST ATTEMPT.
Truther: WHAT HAPPENED?
Woman: OH, MY GOD. DONNA?
WHAT IS IT?
Truther: HOW CAN HUMANITY,
CAPABLE OF SUCH MIRACLES AND WONDERS,
BE FULL OF SUCH HATRED?
Woman: PROTESTS ERUPTED TODAY...
Truther: DIDN'T TAKE LONG FOR US TO BLAME THEM.
Man: WE'RE GETTING REPORTS... WE FEAR-MONGERED AND LABELED.
THE LOS ANGELES RIDGE FIRE...
THERE WAS NO TRIAL, NO JUDGE OR JURY.
BUT A SENTENCE WAS PASSED DOWN JUST THE SAME.
THE RIOTING INTENSIFIED...
WE LET FEAR OVERCOME COMMON SENSE,
PASSED LEGISLATION THAT VIOLATES PRIVACY AND DIGNITY.
WE'RE FORCING THEM INTO HIDING...
Woman: LOOK STRAIGHT AHEAD.
...INTO THE SHADOWS,
WHERE EVOS WILL BECOME MARGINALIZED,
DEHUMANIZED, JEOPARDIZED.
WE KNOW HOW THIS STORY ENDS
BECAUSE IT'S PLAYED OUT TIME AND TIME AGAIN.
MASS MURDERS AND GENOCIDES.
EVERY TIME WE SAY NEVER AGAIN.
NEVER AGAIN!
BUT HERE WE ARE...AGAIN.
IT'S TIME FOR ALL EVOS TO STAND UP AND DECLARE OURSELVES.
[ SIGHS ]
COME ON, PHOEBE. YOU CAN DO THIS.
[ GRUNTING, SWORDS CLASHING ]
Phoebe: QUENTIN, I NEED YOU TO FILM SOMETHING FOR ME.
CAN'T REALLY RIGHT NOW. I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF BEATING SOME ASS.
SO...NOT RIGHT NOW.
[ SIGHS ] I'VE WAITED TOO LONG. I NEED TO SHOW YOU NOW.
THANK YOU.
Quentin: SO, YOU WANT ME TO, LIKE, TOSS THIS ACROSS THE ROOM?
PLEASE DON'T. JUST...
YOU NEED TO GET MY SHADOW, OKAY?
YES. I HAVE IT. THAT'S -- YEAH?

YEAH. UM, WELL...
PHOEBE.
HOW ARE YOU D--
I'M PHOEBE FRADY, AND THAT'S ATTEMPT NUMBER ONE.
HOLY SHIT.
YOU'RE AN EVO.
YOU'RE ONE OF THEM.
MY SISTER IS AN EVO. HOW COOL IS THAT?!
THAT'S AMAZING!
[ LAUGHS ]
HOW LONG DID YOU KNOW YOU COULD DO THIS?
TWO OR...MAYBE THREE YEARS.
TWO YEARS.
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?
I DON'T KNOW. I-I MEAN, I HAVEN'T TOLD ANYONE.
WHAT, THAT YOU'RE A SHADOWMANCER?
I JUST DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN IT.
I WASN'T LYING TO YOU OR ANYTHING.
YEAH. YOU KNOW YOU CAN TELL ME ANYTHING.
I KNOW.
I KNOW. I JUST -- I...
SAYING OUT LOUD IS A...
MAKES IT REAL.
YEAH.
DID MOM KNOW?
NO.
YOU'RE THE ONLY PERSON I'VE EVER TOLD.
I WISH MOM COULD SEE YOU DO THIS.
DO YOU WANT TO SEE WHAT ELSE I CAN DO?
[ Distorted ] HISTORY'S REPEATING.
A CLASS OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN TARGETED,
PORTRAYED AS MONSTERS.
IT'S OUR DUTY TO TELL THEIR STORIES.
THE TRUTH...
PHOEBE'S FIRST DAY AT COLLEGE.
I'M MORE EXCITED THAN SHE IS.
[ LAUGHTER ]
YEAH. YEAH.
YOU'RE FINE. WELCOME TO COLLEGE.
THIS IS GONNA BE A GRAND ADVENTURE.
IT'S JUST COLLEGE. "IT'S JUST COLLEGE."
MAN, YOU'RE GONNA BE READING SO MANY FANCY BOOKS.
YOU'RE GONNA START USING BIG WORDS FOR NO REASON.
THEN YOU MAKE, YOU KNOW, LIFETIME FRIENDS...
WOW, THIS IS AMAZING.
...MAKE SOME ENEMIES,
OR MAYBE SOME LOVERS, LIKE THIS GUY.
RIGHT?
ACTUALLY, NOT HIM. STOP. DON'T. REALLY?
DON'T DO HIM. I JUST GOT HERE.
YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT GUY.
YOU KNOW, ALL OF THIS IS COMING
FROM SOMEONE WHO DID NOT GRADUATE.
I GOT AN ONLINE DEGREE. OH, RIGHT.
IT WAS JUST AFTER AN EXTENDED SABBATICAL.
[ LAUGHS ]
OOH, WELCOME.
OOH, IT SMELLS LIKE COLLEGE. WHAT, GROSS?
OH, LOOK AT THAT. THAT IS ADORABLE.
OKAY, AND MY UNPACKING JOB IS DONE.
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? THERE IS SO MUCH MORE TO DO.
YEAH, I MEAN, LOOK AT OVER HERE.
YOUR ROOMMATE HAS DONE QUITE A BIT.
YOU'VE GOT TO PLAY CATCH-UP.
WHAT IS THIS?
MAYBE YOU SHOULD OPEN IT.
"I MUST SAVE THE PAPER."
[ LAUGHS ] I'M OPENING IT, I'M OPENING IT.
I KNEW YOU'VE BEEN WANTING ONE.
QUENTIN, THIS -- THIS IS SO NICE.
YOU LIKE IT?
YEAH. YEAH, I DO.
THANK YOU.
IT'S A HARD-CORE REAL ONE.
YEAH, IT LOOKS SERIOUS.
WOW.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I'M TURNING IT ON.
NO, NO, NO. DO NOT RECORD ME.
I'M NOT WEARING MY SPANX.
Phoebe: HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE UNDER THE MICROSCOPE?
HEY, I BOUGHT THIS FOR YOU, ALL RIGHT?
THIS IS SO YOU CAN KEEP DOING YOUR EVO THING.
YOU THINK I SHOULD KEEP MAKING VIDEOS?
YEAH. ABSOLUTELY.
YOUR STORY IS INCREDIBLE.
YOU KNOW, GIRL LOSES MOM, GAINS ABILITIES,
STARTS GOING TO COLLEGE
WITH THE BACKDROP OF A BRAVE NEW WORLD.
IT'S OSCAR BAIT.
WE'RE GONNA MAKE SOME CASH.
RIGHT, SO YOU'RE A DOCUMENTARY FILMMAKER NOW?
WELL, IF I GOT TIME
TO FIT IT INTO MY BUSY SCHEDULE, THEN YES.
ALL I CAN DO IS MANIPULATE LIGHT AND SHADOW.
YOU THINK ANYONE'S GONNA CARE ABOUT THAT?
IT'S BADASS.
THERE WAS SOME DORK ON "THE TONIGHT SHOW"
WHO COULD JUST HEAT WATER UP TO ROOM TEMPERATURE.
OH, THAT IS SO LAME.
YEAH, SUCKED. [ KNOCK ON DOOR ]
HI, UM...
Phoebe: PHOEBE. THAT'S AMAZING.
ALY. IT'S SO GOOD TO MEET YOU IN PERSON.
UM, I NEED TO WARN YOU
THAT TEXTBOOKS ARE LIKE HELLA EXPENSIVE.
MAYBE WE CAN SHARE SOME. I DON'T WANT TO BUY THEM. UM...
OH. HI.
THE WEIRDO WITH THE CAMERA IS MY BROTHER QUENTIN.
OKAY. UM, HI.
Quentin: WHAT'S UP?
WOW, AND HE WAS JUST LEAVING.
YOU'RE RIGHT. THANK YOU.

SHE'S COOL WITH IT, OKAY?

OH, IT'S NO BIGGIE? SEE?
SO EVERYBODY'S COOL WITH FISH BOY, THEN? YEAH, SHE'S FINE.
WE'RE ALL COOL? ALL RIGHT.
UH, THEN I WILL BE SEEING YOU, ALY. OUT YOU GO.
OKAY, BYE.
YOUR BROTHER IS KIND OF ADORABLE.
EH, HE'S ALL RIGHT.
[ CHUCKLES ]
OKAY, UH...
MY BROTHER THOUGHT THAT I SHOULD MAKE ANOTHER VIDEO,
SO...HERE GOES.
I'M PHOEBE FRADY, AND THIS IS MY SECOND ATTEMPT.
IT'S FREAKY, RIGHT?
OKAY. ARE YOU READY?
OKAY, WELL, LET ME FILM IT.
YOU'RE THE ONE WITH THE POWER. COME ON.
TRUE, TRUE. FAIR ENOUGH.
You have to whisper.
Professor: ALL-POWERFUL FORCES.
OKAY, THE LIGHTS...
AND EVOLUTION IS NOTHING MORE THAN MINDLESS VARIATION.
HUMAN GENOME VARIATION --

[ LAUGHTER ]
[ PHOEBE SCREAMS ]
[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]
Aly: HEY, HEY, HEY.
PHOEBE? PHOEBE?
PHOEBE, HEY, HEY, YOU'RE OKAY, YOU'RE OKAY.
OKAY?
DID IT HAPPEN AGAIN?
[ SOBS ]
OKAY.
CAN WE LEAVE THE LIGHTS ON AGAIN?
YES. ABSOLUTELY.
JUST GIVE ME A SECOND, OKAY?
[ GASPING ]
YOU OKAY? YEAH.
ARE YOU SURE? YEAH, I'M SORRY.
NO, IT'S -- DON'T WORRY, OKAY?
SORRY.
THE DARK GREW RESTLESS AND DECIDED IT WOULD RULE.
SERIOUSLY, RIGHT NOW?
Quentin: ALY SHOWED ME THE VIDEOS.
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU WERE HAVING THE NIGHTMARES AGAIN?
SHE TOLD YOU?
HEY. DON'T BE MAD AT ALY.
SHE'S JUST WORRIED ABOUT YOU.
WE BOTH ARE.
[ DISH CLATTERS ]
IT'S JUST NIGHTMARES.
IT'S NOT JUST A NIGHTMARE.
IT'S REAL.
THE DARKNESS, I CAN FEEL IT.
WAITING AND WATCHING.
YOU DON'T GET IT. HEY, HEY, HEY.
COME ON, COME ON, COME ON.
I'M NOT CRAZY!
I KNOW. JUST HELP ME UNDERSTAND.
I DON'T THINK YOU'RE CRAZY.
I NEVER SAID I THINK YOU'RE CRAZY.
ALL THIS SHIT STARTED HAPPENING AFTER MOM'S ACCIDENT.
RIGHT?
WHAT IF -- WHAT IF WE JUST GET YOU SOMEBODY TO TALK TO?
NO, I DON'T NEED ANYONE
TELLING ME WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME.
IT WASN'T MY FAULT.
I KNOW.
WE KNOW.
I MISS MOM.
YEAH, I KNOW.
[ Crying ] I MISS HER SO MUCH.
I MISS HER, TOO.
Quentin: SO, MAYBE WE'LL JUST TAKE A BREAK
ON USING YOUR POWER FOR A LITTLE BIT?
YEAH.
[ SNIFFLES ]
NOW CAN YOU STOP FILMING EVERY MENTAL BREAKDOWN I HAVE?
NO WAY. THIS IS GOLD.
WE'RE GOING TO SUNDANCE.
I'M GETTING STRONGER.
IT'S LIKE I CAN STEAL LIGHT, ABSORB IT.
CHANNEL THE DARKNESS.
[ Distorted ] HOW LONG BEFORE VOLUNTARY REGISTRATION BECOMES MANDATORY?
AROUND THE COUNTRY, SCHOOLS AND WORKPLACES
ARE STARTING TO REQUIRE GENETIC TESTING.
THIS IS NOTHING MORE
THAN A BLATANT EXCUSE FOR DISCRIMINATION.
EVERY CONCESSION WE MAKE
IS ANOTHER SIGNATURE ON OUR DEATH WARRANT.
JOIN THE FIGHT.
START THE REVOLUTION.
[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]
THIS IS THE BEST. I'M SO HAPPY THIS WORKED OUT.
Aly: SO MANY CUTE GUYS SHOWED UP. GOOD JOB.
YOU WOULD NOTICE THAT.
OH, WHAT IS ALL THIS?
OH, FINALLY. WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG? HEY.
HEY. I JUST THOUGHT THIS WAS GONNA BE LIKE A FEW PEOPLE.
THIS IS CRAZY. YEAH.
WELL, WE TWEETED IT OUT, AND EVERYONE STARTED SHOWING UP.
IT'S GREAT. YEAH, NOW IT'S LIKE A FULL-ON PROTEST.
YEAH.
I THOUGHT WE TALKED ABOUT TAKING THIS EASY, PHOEBE.
THIS IS KIND OF CRAZY.
THE SCHOOL IS TRYING TO DENY EVOS SCHOLARSHIPS.
OKAY? THAT'S TOTAL BULLSHIT.
YEAH, AND GENETICS SHOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH EDUCATION.
EXACTLY. THANK YOU.
[ INDISTINCT SHOUTING ]
Crowd: [ Chanting ] NO MORE EVOS! Aly: WHO ARE THOSE GUYS?
IT'S PROBABLY A GOOD TIME TO GET OUT OF HERE.
[ CHANTING CONTINUES ]
GET THAT SIGN OUT OF MY FACE, ASSHOLE.
-LET'S GET OUT OF HERE. -NO, WE HAVE TO TAKE A STAND.

-I -- I -- -SHE'S ONE OF THEM, TOO.
-I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO. -LET'S GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE.
COME ON. NO, NO, NO. DO NOT ARREST HER.
SHE'S TRYING TO STOP IT. SHE WAS JUST TRYING TO HELP.
-TURN THE CAMERA OFF! -I AM DOCUMENTING THIS.
Woman on P.A.: REGISTRATION IS FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY.

AND THEY'RE GETTING STERILIZED.
OH, SURE, BUT THAT'S RUSSIA AND CHINA, NOT HE--
IT COULD BE HERE IN A SECOND! I TOLD YOU ABOUT COYOTE SANDS.
ALL RIGHT, THE GOVERNMENT HAS KNOWN ABOUT EVOS
SINCE WAY BEFORE CLAIRE BENNET CAME OUT.
WEREN'T YOU THE ONE WHO WANTED ME TO MAKE VIDEOS IN THE FIRST PLACE?
I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE GONNA GO AROUND ORGANIZING PROTESTS.
AH, I'M SORRY. I'M -- I'm sorry.
YOU GOT TO BE MORE CAREFUL.
CAN WE JUST GO?
Quentin: INTERNSHIP FATS.
INTERNSHIP FAIR.
I'M HIRING INTERNS, ALSO KNOWN AS A GIRLFRIEND.
SO CAN A CAB.
JUST GONNA TAKE SOME OF THESE.
PHOEBE'S GONNA LOVE ALL MY B-ROLL.
UH, THAT'S REALLY WEIRD.
WE TAKE ABOUT SIX APPLICANTS A SEMESTER. GREAT.
DO YOU HAVE ANY I.D.?
YEAH. YEAH, YEAH.
THANK YOU.
JUST GIVE ME ONE MINUTE.

YEAH, I WAS ON THEIR WEBSITE,
AND THEY DO SOME REALLY COOL STUFF WITH CELL BIOLOGY.
[ Nasally ] SOME REALLY COOL STUFF. I'M SO EXCITED.
SORRY, THE POSITION HAS BEEN FILLED.
[ Normal voice ] THAT'S BLATANT DISCRIMINATION. YOU KNOW THAT, RIGHT?
-STOP. QUENTIN. -DO YOU KNOW THAT?
-QUENTIN. -I HAVE -- I HAVE YOU CAMERA.
QUENTIN, IT DOESN'T MATTER. IT'S FINE. COME ON.
I DON'T WANT TO WORK FOR THOSE ASSHOLES, ANYWAY.
Quentin: I GOT ALL THAT ON TAPE.
EXCUSE ME. I COULDN'T HELP BUT OVERHEAR WHAT HAPPENED.
PERHAPS I COULD INTEREST YOU IN A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW.
EVOLVED, IF YOU WILL.
-RENAUTAS? -WE'RE ONE
OF THE FASTEST-GROWING TECH COMPANIES IN THE NATION.
BUT WE DON'T DISCRIMINATE.
IN FACT, WE ENCOURAGE THE HIRING OF EVOLVED HUMANS
AT OUR NEWEST CAMPUS.
THE FUTURE HOLDS MANY EXCITING OPPORTUNITIES,
AND RENAUTAS BELIEVES YOU'RE MEANT TO DO
SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY.
UM...THANKS.
[ Slowly ] THANKS.

I DON'T KNOW. I MEAN, IT SOUNDS KIND OF COOL.
YOU JUST LIKE HIM 'CAUSE HE LOOKS LIKE BLADE.
YES, THAT IS IT.

WE'RE DOCUMENTING THIS MEAL.
SO, FIRST THING YOU WANT IS SOME -- IS SOME FUNGI.
-OH, RIGHT. YES. -RIGHT HERE. YEAH.

-YOU READY? YOU READY? -OH, MY GOD, YES.
-OKAY, YEAH. -WE'RE GONNA DO THIS ON THREE.
-OKAY. -ONE, TWO, THREE.
[ GRUNTS, LAUGHS ] -OH!
THIS IS THE MOST DRAMATIC THING I'VE EVER DONE.
YEAH, UM...
SO, IF I DON'T GET AN INTERNSHIP THIS SUMMER,
I THINK I WANT TO GO TO THE ODESSA SUMMIT.
UNBELIEVABLE.
COME ON.
THIS IS OUR CHANCE TO SHOW THE WORLD THAT WE'RE NOT FREAKS,
THAT WE DESERVE RIGHTS.
IT'S OUR CHANCE TO PROVE
THAT WE'RE MEANT TO DO SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY.
WE'RE MEANT TO USHER IN THE FUTURE.
I THINK YOU SHOULD STAY HERE.
FOCUS ON YOUR FINALS.
OF COURSE. OF COURSE YOU DO.
WEREN'T YOU THE ONE WHO SAID
THAT I HAVE TO REACH OUT AND BE PART OF A MOVEMENT?
YOU FILMED THE WHOLE THING,
AND NOW YOU DON'T WANT ME TO BE THERE WHEN HISTORY IS MADE?
I THINK IT'S A BAD IDEA. OKAY?
ESPECIALLY AFTER WHAT JUST HAPPENED AT THE RALLY.
THIS IS SUCH BULLSHIT!
COME ON! I'M TRYING TO PROTECT YOU!
I DON'T NEED YOUR HELP!
[ DOOR SLAMS, ELECTRICITY CRACKLES, GLASS SHATTERS ] JESUS CHRIST!
NOT COOL!
[ Distorted ] IT'S TIME FOR ALL EVOS TO STAND UP AND DECLARE OURSELVES.
PRIMATECH WILL OPEN THEIR DOORS ON JUNE 13th
FOR A THREE-DAY SUMMIT.

IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO BE IN ODESSA,
STANDING SHOULDER TO SHOULDER AS ONE SINGLE SPECIES.
TOGETHER WE CAN PAVE THE WAY
TOWARDS A BRIGHTER FUTURE FOR ALL MANKIND.

THEY'VE BEEN TRACKING AND CAPTURING EVOS FOR DECADES.
IT'S THE SITE OF THE SUMMIT.
I'VE GOT A BAD FEELING ABOUT THIS.
I'M GOING. -WAIT, I'M COMING WITH YOU.
THIS IS IT.
THIS IS IT. THIS IS IT.
HERE, TAKE THE CAMERA. -OKAY.
I'M GONNA GO IN, TALK TO THIS GUY.
HEY, UH...
YOU WOULDN'T, BY CHANCE, HAVE SEEN THIS WOMAN?
UH, THIS IS MY SISTER.
SHE MADE A CALL AT THIS PAY PHONE, LIKE YESTERDAY AT 3:30.
WOULD YOU --
ARE THESE LIKE SECURITY CAMERAS?
NO, I DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO--

-COME ON. -YOU CAN'T KEEP DOING THIS TO YOURSELF.
HOW MANY TIMES ARE YOU GONNA WATCH THESE?

GREAT. SO YOU AND THE 10 OTHER SHUT-INS THAT SCOUR THE SITE
WILL SEE IT.
MAYBE IT'S TIME TO LET HER GO.
YOU THINK SHE DID IT, DON'T YOU?
I -- I DON'T KNOW.
HEY, BUT I HEARD HER SCREAMING EVERY NIGHT FOR A YEAR.
SOMETHING WAS WRONG, AND YOU KNOW THAT. -[ GROANS ]
SHE WAS LOST AND SCARED.
YOU KNOW, MAYBE SURESH GOT IN HER HEAD.
SURESH HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
SHE NEVER MET SURESH.
I HAVE HIS UNPUBLISHED BOOK RIGHT HERE.
HERO TRUTHER UPLOADED IT.
IT'S ALL HERE. I READ ALL OF IT.
ALL RIGHT? HE WAS NOT A RADICAL. HE WAS A HUMANIST.
YOU KNOW, HE BELIEVED THE EVOS WERE NATURE'S WAY
OF -- OF SAFEGUARDING MANKIND.
SO WHY WOULD HE DESTROY OUR ONLY HOPE?
THEY MADE HIM THE FALL GUY.
-WHO IS "THEY"? -RENAUTAS!
CHECK IT OUT.
RIGHT? JUNE 13th WAS A CALCULATED EVENT TO VILIFY EVOS.
RENAUTAS BROUGHT PHOEBE TO ODESSA FOR SOME KIND OF REASON,
AND PRIMATECH -- WELL, RENAUTAS AND PRIMATECH ARE CONNECTED --
I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW -- -QUENTIN. QUENTIN! LOOK AT YOURSELF.
THIS ISN'T HEALTHY.
OKAY, NONE OF THIS IS GONNA BRING HER BACK.
LOOK, WHATEVER HAPPENED, OKAY, WHETHER SHE DID IT OR NOT,
PHOEBE IS GONE. OKAY?
AND WE NEED TO MOVE ON WITH OUR LIVES.
GUESS THAT MUST BE REAL EASY FOR YOU, HUH?
UM...
OKAY, SCREW YOU, QUENTIN.
[ DOOR OPENS, SLAMS ]
THEY CLAIM THAT MY SISTER WAS ONE OF THE ODESSA ATTACKERS.
THAT SHE MURDERED THOUSANDS.
BUT AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THESE VIDEOS I POSTED
THAT THAT IS NOT TRUE.
SHE WAS INNOCENT.
HERO TRUTHER, I NEED YOU TO HELP ME FIND SOME PROOF.
I COULDN'T SAVE PHOEBE.
BUT I CAN CLEAR HER NAME.
I'M GONNA FIND OUT WHO TOOK HER AWAY FROM ME.
[ KEYBOARD CLACKS ]

I'VE LOST MORE LOVED ONES THAN I CARE TO COUNT.
BUT WE'RE AT WAR, AND TAKING ON RENAUTAS
IS A BATTLE WE ARE GOING TO LOSE.
I'M SORRY, I CAN'T AFFORD THE RISK.
SO, WHAT? SO, WHAT? WE'RE SUPPOSED TO GIVE UP?
WE'RE SUPPOSED TO THROW IN THE TOWEL?
WHAT HAPPENED, MAN?
YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE EXPOSING THE TRUTH.
ODESSA CHANGED EVERYTHING. THE PUBLIC'S SCARED.
THEY'D RATHER HUNT US DOWN, PICK US OFF ONE BY ONE,
THAN HEAR THE TRUTH.
MY SISTER FOLLOWED YOUR EXAMPLE, CLAIRE BENNET'S.
SHE STOOD UP, AND SHE DECLARED HERSELF.
SHE BELIEVED IN YOU. SHE TRUSTED YOU.
SHE WANTED TO BE A HERO.
BUT IT GOT HER KILLED.
DON'T YOU LET HER DEATH BE IN VAIN.
YOU OWE HER.
I CAN GET YOU INSIDE.
BUT AFTER THAT, IT'LL BE UP TO YOU.
LET'S DO IT.
[ CHUCKLES ]
HELLO, MR. FITZGERALD. YOU LOOK REALLY GOOD.
I GOT THIS.
AND THEN I GOT A PEN.
WHAT IS THIS?
THIS IS A CAMERA?
OH, NO WAY.
THAT'S AWESOME.
YES.
IT'S LIKE I'M JAMES BOND.
BUT WHERE ARE THE BOND WOMEN?
IT WOULD BE A DREAM COME TRUE
TO WORK FOR A VENERABLE COMPANY SUCH AS RENAUTAS.
AND DID YOU KNOW -- YOU KNOW THAT DOING GOOD
IS ALSO MY BUSINESS?
IT'S PRETTY AMAZING.
WAIT, ARE YOU KIDDING?
OF COURSE I WILL START TODAY.
I CAN'T WAIT TO EXPOSE YOU
FOR WHAT EVIL BASTARDS YOU TRULY ARE.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]
HEY. -HI.
UH, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TAKING MY CALL.
OH, IT'S...
-COME IN, COME IN. -OKAY.
-[ CHUCKLES ] -[ CHUCKLES ] THANKS.
UH...
I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT I AM SORRY.
FOR WHAT I SAID.
UM, ME TOO.
YOU KNOW, YOU -- YOU LOOK REALLY GOOD, THOUGH.
YOU LOOK BETTER THAN... -THANK YOU.
...I DID. -YEAH. [ CHUCKLES ]
YEAH, I WAS GETTING -- I WAS GETTING ROUGH.
UH, YOU WERE RIGHT.
YOU KNOW, IT WAS TIME FOR ME TO GET OFF MY ASS,
TAKE SOME INITIATIVE, AND DO SOMETHING.
YOU KNOW, SO I GOT JOB.
OH, THAT'S GREAT.
-WHERE ARE YOU WORKING? -HERE. CHECK THIS OUT.
RENAUTAS.
OH, MY GOD.
I'M WORKING WITH HERO TRUTHER.
HE'S COVERING MY TRACKS.
I JUST BIDE MY TIME.
I'M COLLECTING AMMUNITION TO TAKE THEM DOWN.
-IF THEY CAUGHT YOU -- -EVERYBODY THINKS THAT PRIMATECH
BURNED DOWN ON JUNE 13th, BUT THEY ARE WRONG.
NOT ONLY IS THERE A CONNECTION BETWEEN RENAUTAS AND PRIMATECH,
BUT GET THIS -- BA-BA-DA-DA -- RENAUTAS IS PRIMATECH.
[ Laughing ] ISN'T THAT NUTS? THAT GR--
AND IT'S ALL HERE. ALL OF IT.
ALL I SEE IS SOMEONE SITTING ALONE IN THE DARK,
RANTING LIKE A CRAZY PERSON.
-NO, YOU DON'T -- I -- -OKAY, NO, WHEN YOU CALLED ME,
I WAS REALLY HOPING YOU HAD YOUR SHIT TOGETHER.
-I HAVE MY SHIT TOGETHER. -BUT YOU DON'T!
OKAY, THIS IS TOO MUCH, QUENTIN.
LOOK, YOU CAN HELP US EXPOSE THEM.
I -- I DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS.
OKAY? DON'T CALL ME AGAIN.
[ DOOR OPENS, CLOSES ]
HERE. LOOK AT THIS.
THEY GOT A WHOLE TEAM DIGITIZING PRIMATECH'S ASSETS.
THIS IS THE HARD EVIDENCE THAT PROVES THAT RENAUTAS
IS KEEPING UP THE SAME PRACTICES AS THE COMPANY.
IF THERE'S GONNA BE A SMOKING GUN, IT'S GONNA BE IN THERE.
I CAN'T BYPASS THEIR FIREWALLS
WITHOUT LEAVING MYSELF VULNERABLE TO AN ATTACK.
YOU'LL HAVE TO COPY THE FILES LOCALLY.
SO BREAK INTO RENAUTAS AND HACK INTO THE SYSTEMS...
LIKE, THERE.
OKAY.
WHERE IS IT?
USERNAME.
PASSWORD. OKAY.
♪ DOO-DOO-DOO-DOO
PRIMATECH.
HELLO, NOAH BENNET.
WALKER SYSTEM.
[ WHIRRING ]
GO, GO, GO.
SHIT. [ BEEP ]
[ FOOTSTEPS ]
[ BEEPING ]
EVER HEARD OF AN EVO WITH PYROKENISIS? -NO.
DON'T TEMPT ME, OR I WILL LIGHT YOUR ASS UP, MAN.
OKAY. OKAY.
PLEASE. I'VE GOT A WIFE AND KIDS.
YOU START COUNTING TO 100.
AND YOU DON'T OPEN YOUR EYES UNTIL YOU'RE DONE.
ONE, TWO, THREE...
[ BEEPING ] -LOUDER!
...FOUR.
I CAN'T HEAR YOU!
-[ Loudly ] FIVE, SIX... -LOUDER!
...SEVEN.
[ PANTING ]
I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT WORKED.
[ LAUGHS ]
YES! YES!
Quentin: THIS IS THE LAUNDROMAT
WHERE HERO TRUTHER TOLD ME TO MEET HIM.
THIS IS THE EVIDENCE THAT EXONERATES MY SISTER,
THAT PROVES THAT RENAUTAS WAS BEHIND JUNE 13th --
THAT THEY ARE BAGGING AND TAGGING, JUST LIKE PRIMATECH.
EVERYTHING HAS LED UP TO TONIGHT.
TONIGHT... THE REVOLUTION BEGINS.
[ BREATHES DEEPLY ] WISH ME LUCK.
[ BUTTON CLICKS ]
[ BREATHES DEEPLY ]
[ BELL JINGLES ]
WHAT'S THE PASSWORD?
Quentin: COCKROACH.
TAKE THE DOOR ON THE RIGHT, DOWN THE STAIRS.
[ DOOR CLOSES ]
[ Laughing ] HOLY SHIT.
WHAT...
IS THIS -- I GUESS THIS IS YOUR REBEL HIDEOUT, HUH?
IT'S NO HOTH, BUT IT'LL DO.
[ WHOOSH ]
HE'S CLEAN.
LET HIM GO, DAHLIA.
HE'S A FRIEND.
WHEW. HUH. COOL.
UH, I GUESS YOU CAN'T BE TOO CAREFUL.
-THANK YOU. -GOT A BIG TARGET ON OUR BACK.
RENAUTAS HAS MANAGED TO MANIPULATE
MOST MAINSTREAM MEDIA,
SO WE'RE THE ONLY INDEPENDENT VOICE LEFT.
Quentin: I'VE BEEN WONDERING ABOUT THAT.
HOW HAS RENAUTAS NOT SHUT YOUR WEBSITE DOWN?
[ CHUCKLES SOFTLY ] LET'S JUST SAY
I HAVE A SKILL THAT KEEPS US UP AND RUNNING.
OH, YOU'RE AN EVO.
ALL RIGHT.
I'M JUST ANOTHER ONE OF THE HUNTED.
BUT YOU CAN CALL ME MICAH.
NOW, I HAVE SOMETHING I NEED TO SHOW YOU.
IT'S ABOUT YOUR SISTER.
WHAT?
[ WARBLE ]
Phoebe: [ CRYING ]
WE CAPTURED THIS VIDEO TWO WEEKS AGO.
OH, MY GOD. SHE'S ALIVE.
A COMRADE OF OURS ESCAPED A RENAUTAS FACILITY
WHERE PHOEBE WAS HELD.
LOOK, EVERYTHING THAT YOU'VE FOUND
PROVES RENAUTAS IS PLANNING SOMETHING BIG --
MAYBE EVEN BIGGER THAN JUNE 13th.
WE'RE GONNA STOP THEM.
WE'RE ASSEMBLING A STRIKE TEAM
TO EXTRACT YOUR SISTER AND OTHERS.
WE COULD USE YOUR HELP.
MY HELP?
-WE'VE BEEN COMPROMISED. -HE LED THEM RIGHT TO US.
-I DIDN'T KNOW. -LOOK -- FIND NOAH BENNET.
[ GUNFIRE ] TOO LATE.
[ TASER CRACKLES ] [ GROANS ]
GO, GO, GO!
OH, GOD, OH, GOD, OH, GOD!
RENAUTAS APPRECIATES YOUR HELP
IN LOCATING THEIR FEEBLE RESISTANCE.
[ CLANG ] -WHAT? OH, SHIT!
GO!
[ PANTING ]
AND I'VE BEEN ON THE RUN EVER SINCE.
NOW IT'S UP TO ME TO EXPOSE THE TRUTH.
RENAUTAS HAS BOTH MY SISTER AND HERO TRUTHER.
SO NOW I'VE GOT TO FIND THE ONE PERSON WHO CAN STOP THEM --
SOMEBODY WHO KNOWS HOW THEY OPERATE.
NOAH BENNET.
HE WENT OFF THE GRID.
THEY'VE BEEN KEEPING TABS ON HIM.
IT'S A NEW NAME, BUT IT'S DEFINITELY HIM.
HE WALKED AWAY FROM PRIMATECH AFTER JUNE 13th.
BUT DOES HE KNOW RENAUTAS REVIVED THE COMPANY?
THAT THEY ARE USING HIS METHODS
TO FIND AND HUNT INNOCENT PEOPLE?
HE WAS THE MAN WITH THE PLAN, AND I NEED HIS HELP.
