by for the President.

[President] Citizens of Eden

remember Eden is

salvation, never lose hope.

[Paul] Sure he

is okay, come on.

(suspenseful music)

[Cain] Leave it with me.

This is not my fate.

Your fate?

Fate is just a word

the week minded use

when they've lost control

of their own lives.

I was never week minded.

Because you don't have a mind.

Don't I?

I remember doing things.

I remember choices I've

made, feelings I've felt.

But you're saying it's all data,

a complex algorithm, a fate

decided by binary codes.

Whether you believe

you're governed by destiny

or whether you make your

own all the confusion

you're experiencing right now

can be solved by one thing.

[Eve] Which is?

Purpose.

What you perceive as

choice is purpose.

It's not your mind.

It is your programming guiding

you towards your purpose.

Now as you can

imagine I have one

or two other things

to attend to.

Fix the arm.

And reboot this thing like

you did the last time.

[Paul] Obviously we have

to prioritize food and water.

Yeah the food and water

purification tablets.

Which one of these is Gadd?

Why?

Double food rations

for next week.

How did he manage that?

None of my business.

Now I have to give him

his updated ration card.

You tell me where he is?

No fine, I'll find him myself.

Oh by the way the President's

coming down in two minutes so

front and center.

He was dying, half

mad with septicemia.

I couldn't tell you.

I wanted to.

You've kept her alive for me.

What does he mean

like the last time?

You've done this to me before.

Everything I've

done was for her.

I loved her.

I know.

She knew.

I'm leaving Albert.

I have to find Abel.

[Smith] You love him.

[Eve] He is my purpose.

Everything else has

been lies and betrayal.

[Smith] Eve.

I won't betray you.

Mr. Brooks my apologies.

He refused to wait.

He returned to Civie where the

situation is out of control.

I recommend we put the

lower levels into lockdown.

Leave that with me.

More importantly

we need to widen

the search for food

stores, get Jimenez here.

He's not answering comms.

Does he think I'm stupid?

(somber music)

From knowing why you

aren't in medical

Doctor let me just

cut to the chase.

Mr. Jimenez has been

ill for some time

which I'm surprised

you haven't noticed.

He's in the Comms room

and isn't answering.

Retrieve him and

accompany him to medical.

Do it now.

(suspenseful music)

Why do we give in

to Pope's demands?

Because we're lied to

and if we say anything,

anything at all they send them.

And they send us Paul

Brooks to keep the peace.

Why don't they send Paul

Brooks with something to eat?

[Crowd] Yeah!

(contemplative music)

Turn around time in five.

(contemplative music)

Guys, what's that?

(contemplative music)

Where the hell is this?

[Eve] It's Babel.

With a piece of

something to eat.

I'm hungry.

I've had enough.

(all shouting at once)

James for the survival of Eden

I recommend shutting

Civie down now.

(dramatic music)

What the hell

are you doing here?

How are you doing that?

How are you doing that?

My skin is made of the same

composite as the Mark III.

What?

Put the weapons down.

If we had time I would

explain Frost but we don't.

That's why I'm here to help.

Why?

Because the situation

in Eden is critical.

And of securing, what the f***

were we gonna get

secure down here?

What the hell?

[Robert] When we start

dying of starvation.

(electricity crackling)

And they send us Paul

Brooks the peace keeper.

[Frost] You're not giving a

lot to trust you on here Doc.

I know but you

have to trust me.

You have no choice.

(dramatic music)

[Frost] What's Babel?

Another facility.

There were three built

to service Project Abel.

Eden, Jericho, and this one.

(dramatic music)

[Macdonald] Jimenez you okay.

(punch lands)

(head bangs)

(dramatic music)

Damn it what the

hell is going on?

Cain and Walsh

will get word to us.

I suggest we wait here.

(dramatic music)

It's obvious he's not coming.

I've had enough of this.

There's no justice and just love

and it feels that way every day.

[Alexa] Walsh,

get them to stop.

[Robert] I wouldn't

mind some of those

rations that we've

been promised.

(dramatic music)

It's dead.

There's no principle power.

[Chapman] The

backup generators

must be running the lights.

We should go in.

You first.

(dramatic music)

[Computer] Decontamination

purge activated.

(contemplative music)

What the hell happened here?

(contemplative music)

Eve, Eve.

It's alright, it's fine.

[Frost] Over here.

[Computer] Warning

decontamination purge activated.

Abort sequence.

Warning decontamination purge...

[Kramer] It looks

like he took something.

Right we get some

fresh suits from decon

and we can still

catch up with him.

[Chapman] What's that?

They must have

experimented on live animals.

How could they?

How could she?

Let's move.

Eve let's go.

What is that?

It's where I died.

(dramatic music)

Where are those rations

that we've been promised?

Give us a little

piece of the rations.

I've eaten nothing but bullshit

for the last few weeks.

I'm tired of eating

their bullshit.

What the hell is

the point of this?

(gun fires)

[Computer] Warning

decontamination purge activated.

Enter abort sequence.

(speaking in foreign language)

Dad are you okay, are you hit?

[Gadd] Cain get

me out of this.

No Cain no.

(gun fires)

He tried to run.

(dramatic music)

[Computer] Warning

decontamination purge activated.

Enter abort sequence.

(dramatic music)

Warning decontamination

purge activated.

Enter abort sequence.

It was Pope.

He's turning us against each

other killing us one by one.

No more, no more

it's time to fight.

Who's with me?

Come on.

(all shouting at once)

(dramatic music)

[Computer] Warning

decontamination purge activated.

Enter abort sequence.

Warning decontamination...

Steven, Steven wait.

Not this time Paul.

He crossed the line.

(gun c*cks)

You have to stop them

before they do something...

Stupid.

Sorry Paul that wasn't

part of the plan.

[Computer] Warning

decontamination purge activated.

Enter abort sequence.

It's cold blooded murder Cain.

How you gonna explain this?

Pope's finished.

By the window, just be clever.

I have been.

[Alexa] Cain.

Shut your mouth.

Gadd wasn't supposed to miss.

(dramatic music)

(gun fires)

(dramatic music)

Come on move move.

Come on come on move, move out.

Let's go.

(dramatic music)

(gun fires)

[Walsh] Don't do this.

[Cain] Dan.

Come on.

[Cain] Serious, move.

Danny I said get

out of the way.

[Robert] It's

time to step down.

Now now friends.

This has always been a

peaceful establishment.

Bullshit.

You know the rules.

I only deal with Paul Brooks.

Oh really you attempted

to have him assassinated.

What?

James is that true?

As if I'd council

in such an action.

(contemplative music)

Let's think about this.

Danny move now.

So what are you gonna do?
