- In the name of justice!

In the name of...

nothing, I'm just...

I-I'm fine. I'm sorry.

Donny wrote this today.

The kids still teasing him

in school?

It's not the teasing, will.

It's this whole place,

this... this situation...

These... things

that are happening.

You've been so good to us,

and you don't owe us anything...

Mia... - and I think

maybe it's time that...

No.

Come on.

I don't want Donny and I to stand in the way

of something that's so important to you.

Mia, if he misses home,

we'll go back on a trip.

Let me go talk to him, okay?

- Hey.

- Where am I?

How long have I been out?

Who are you?

No, we have to... we have...

We don't have a lot of time.

What...?

- Hey!

- Whoa! Easy!

- Who are you?

- You have to let us go.

We need to get out of here

right now.

You work for alterplex,

just like her?

- You need to let us go now.

- Tell him. Tell him.

Yeah, tell me.

Who do you work for?

What? Come on, Michael.

- Tell him.

- Michael?

Michael, come on. We need to

go, we need to get outta here.

Who is this guy?

What are you doing?!

No, no, no...

Don't. What are you do...

Are you listening to me?!

We have to go!

We have to get that thing

to the tower!

- Redivider? What is this?

- That's impossible!

What is not possible?

What is this? Come on.

You bring these people in here and

you can't explain what this is?!

- Hugo, he told me he can help.

- Did you sell us out, Mike?

- No. I swear.

- Did you sell us out?!

No, I didn't. Trust me,

I know what I'm doing.

- Hey! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

- They can help. Hugo, trust me.

They can help? Help bring us

this tracking device here?

Help us all get killed?!

What is this?!!!

Sh*t!

- Sh*t!

- Ah!!

Where's the box?

Will, we need the box!

Michael, come on,

we gotta get outta here!

Let's go, go, go, go!

Gotta move out!

Move out, guys! Move!

Abby! Move!

Will, come on! This way!

It's the only way out!

Michael, let's go,

let's get the f*** out of here.

Let's get outta here.

Abby, come on!

Let's go! Go! Go!

Come on, move it!

Attention. You are harbouring

a wanted individual.

You are in breach of the active

alterplex security order.

Shhh!

Stay down, stay down. Okay.

Yeah, let's do it.

Go! Go! Go! Abby, come on!

Clear!

This way!

Abby! Abby!

I couldn't tell you

about the box!

I know an escape tunnel nearby!

Sh*t! Let's go! Come on!

- Give me the box, will.

- We gotta move! We gotta move! Come on!

Why are you standing there?!

Come on! Come on!

We gotta' go down.

Come on. Quick.

Abby? Abby!

What was I supposed to do?

Abby, what was I supposed to do?

I couldn't tell you

about the box once I knew

I was in the echo!

You weren't even supposed

to be here!

Nobody was supposed to be alive here.

Stop! No, you stop! Redivider...

What is redivider?

Huh? What is it?

You sent me here.

You... sent me here.

Now you tell me

what is redivider.

It's a classified protocol.

A last resort.

When restoring balance

is impossible...

the box disables one side

altogether.

It destroys the tower.

And this universe.

There's only one option left.

Redivider aborts... one universe

to ensure... the other survives.

Jesus Christ.

This thing's

a goddamn kill switch.

Hey, bud.

I got your note.

I miss home, too.

Truth is, Donny...

I don't really know

where home is anymore.

Will Porter,

please call in

as soon as possible.

You know, Donny,

there are a lot of...

Very important...

Very smart people

in these towers.

And they wanted uncle will...

To move

halfway across the world...

move our home

after it goes through...

To be part

of a very special project.

It's something that could help

a lot people, you know?

Maybe even change the world.

I thought maybe I could help

you and... your mom too.

And that's a big responsibility.

Maybe the biggest responsibility

of my life.

Will Porter, please call in

as soon as possible.

What...?

Really?

This for me?

Thanks, man.

So you sent me

on a suicide mission?

I'm tired of being

f***ed around, Abby!

I am done!

Where did my family go, huh?

Where are they, Abby?

Will, where are you going?

Oh, sh*t! What's happening?!

Where are you going?

You said they evacuated, right?

Donny, my sister,

they evacuated?

Will, this is a bad idea.

- I am too close to home.

- No, you're not thinking clearly.

This is a bad idea.

It's getting worse.

Oh, my god! Oh, my god!

It's... it's like it's coming

apart at the seams! What the...?!

Holy sh*t! I gotta get to them!

Don't go!

Please stay with us.

Get out of my way!

No! No! No! No! No! No!

Oh, my god!

Mia?!

Mia! Donny!

I should never have dragged

you guys here.

I am done.

- Done?

- Yeah.

I've been so selfish.

- We're gonna get through this.

- I don't wanna just get through this, Mia.

You and Donny deserve

way better.

Please, I didn't mean for this

to become a big thing.

Mia, it's a huge deal.

You're my sister.

I promised to look after you.

And I... I don't feel like

I've done a very good job.

We're going home.

All of us.

Are you sure?

First thing in the morning,

I'm going to quit and...

We'll get on the first plane

outta here. Okay?

Thank you.

What kind of person are you?!

You said they evacuated.

You said you made sure

of it yourself. You lied to me.

What's that?

What's it doing?

I'm sorry.

Wait here.

Sh*t!

What the hell is going on?!

Critical failure protocol!

You're going in!

Will!

I guess that resignation

will have to wait. I'm sorry.

- Where are they taking you?

- Porter! You have to go now!

What?

Will!

Will!!

Traitor.

We got Porter.

What about the box?

Is it safe?

Ah!

- Yes, sir. - Good, good. Don't

let it out of your sight.

What should I do with it?

- Just like we discussed.

- Copy.

Take them up front.

Reynard.

- Hello, will.

- Whatever he says, don't listen to him!

- On your knees! Stay down!

- Don't trust him.

Jordan, let's go.

It's an interesting...

strange...

beautiful paradox.

Those two worlds conjoined,

like twins...

just from the womb.

We have to sacrifice one...

So the other may endure.

- You're going to sacrifice

the original universe. - Hmm.

You're destroying my world

so you can live?

F*** you.

We need your help, will.

There is still time.

Time for what?

You think I'd actually help you?

With everything I know now?

I know...

This is a difficult decision.

Difficult? Difficult?!

Killing my family is difficult?!

That's why going back

is the only solution.

You can see them again.

You're the only one

who can pilot the jump.

There is no third option.

If we remain here

in this stalemate,

both worlds soon cease to exist.

We have to sacrifice one

to save the other.

Yes. Yes, Mr. Porter,

your family will die.

I'm only offering you

the opportunity to be there.

Hold their hands...

In the end.

One must be sacrificed

so the other can live.

That works for me.

Michael,

hold onto something now!

Ah! Ugh!

There.

Where's Portman?
