I see you all the time at school.
Yeah well, I kinda just
want it to be me and you.
You're different, I like that.
I'm sure you tell all the girls that.
So um, how you feel about me?
We kinda need to go 'cause
I have school tomorrow.
So, what's the rush?
Hey.
Um, cool.
Yo, Bridd.
Charlotte's showing
some sweet side boob.
Yep.
It's all you.
Believe me, I've tried.
You know anything about transverses?
Not much.
Yeah I'm never gettin' that promotion.
Screw it, coffee time.
You really need that promotion, huh?
It doesn't matter.
You know, maybe I will try
a new line on Charlotte.
Hey, Mr. Benson.
Trent, smart trades.
What?
You just earned your own portfolio.
Thanks.
I can't believe I got it.
It's like the best thing ever.
We should go to Vegas.
Let's got to Mexico, spring break, dude.
Um, I'll pay for that.
I can afford it.
I know you had something
to do with my promotion.
I don't know how cause
those trades were impossible.
You don't show anybody.
I've seen you do some
pretty amazing things
when no one's looking.
That's creepy.
Alright, you don't wanna talk about it.
You never do.
I like staying below the radar.
You're delivering mail,
that's practically underground.
and people come looking...
See, that doesn't make any sense.
You're 35, you live with your folks.
No, for the last time
they're in Barbados, okay?
All I'm saying is I don't get it.
I'm like your best friend
and I barely know you.
Just drop it.
Bridd Cole?
Couldn't make me the last stop?
If you will sign here.
This says Joseyln Cole.
That's my mom.
Okay.
She's been dead 20 years.
They really have you in
the dungeon, don't they?
So, this is where all the magic happens.
You've worked here for a while right?
I've been here like three months
and it already feels like a year.
and other stuff.
Oh, what about that?
Ah, go ahead.
See me, ah.
You've got kind eyes.
What?
I can tell.
I moved around a lot.
I hang around until I get bored
or someone chases me away.
So no connections?
I'm agile.
I can tell.
Let's talk about you.
I think you talk enough
for the both of us.
Uh uh, I have already kissed you.
What about your family?
Not much to tell.
Out of touch?
My dad took off when I was a toddler.
And my mom died a few
years later after that.
Sorry.
It's okay.
Here, I made this for you.
Here.
Oh!
It's much easier.
Little early in
our relationship for rings.
I guess I will just put it on.
Door to door service.
That's very chivalrous.
Oh, you like it pretty.
Oh, God!
Is that our boss?
Wait a sec.
Take what you want.
Go! Go!
Go!
Who the hell is that?
I don't know!
I don't know!
Oh my God, he was so fast!
Oh, God.
That is the last time I kiss a guy
before a background check.
Who's after us?
After you.
Our boss is dead.
I better still have a job.
That's your priority?
No!
Maybe. I don't know.
I'm freaking out!
Okay, we gotta go.
Trent!
What's up?
Hey, we've been attacked!
Are you okay?
Get over here.
Come on, let's go.
Alright, alright.
Oh, my God.
No, no, no.
Time to go, let's go.
Hi, hi.
My name is Bridd Cole.
I'd like to report an emer...
Are you crazy?
What? Trent's dead!
Yeah, Officer, I know
what this looks like,
but I promise I didn't kill
my boss and my best friend.
I'll explain everything.
I'm innocent.
Fingerprints on the letter
opener totally coincidental.
Okay, wait.
And the phone call you made to Trent
just bad timing.
No wait, wait, well,
you can go to the cops
and you can explain everything.
No, thanks.
Like, just, just tell them
that I was with you.
Look, there's a reason I'm a temp.
Well, I have an alibi!
Like, if I go into a police station
they're locking me up.
Okay? Long story.
What? What?
This is my life here!
No way!
One K 26 DC 911,
be advised one of these vehicles
is probably involved right now.
5953 are you responding?
Alright homicide,
two officers down, Bridd Cole,
male, Caucasian and
Charlotte Parker, three priors,
female Caucasian,
consider armed and dangerous,
apprehend by deadly force if necessary.
Dead cops.
Thank you.
You still wanna go to the police?
I spent, I spend my whole life
not being a criminal!
I believe in the system!
Yeah well, the system's
gonna shoot first.
I want my life back!
Good luck!
I'm not gonna run forever!
Trust me, it'll grow on you.
And besides, in case
you haven't noticed,
someone is trying to kill us.
Who? Who's, who's
trying to wreck my life?
Better question,
why are you so important?
I'm not.
Well, those men wanted something.
I don't know.
Like, what's different?
Nothing.
So, your mom sent you that?
I doubt it.
I, I thought it was a joke.
Yeah, hilarious.
I think this might hold some answers,
but I, I can't turn it on.
Whoa!
Oh, a game.
Well, what are you waiting for?
I'm a natural.
Whoa.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Oh, damn!
That's a new twist.
What are you doing?
You just wasted an entire chance!
How on Earth...
What just happened?
Feel like a road trip?
That was amazing.
How did you do that?
I just watched it.
Yup.
This is the place.
Cheerful.
Get in, get out.
Ah, I thought we'd hang.
Have a scone.
I think it's locked.
Not anymore.
Well, you are full of surprises.
This isn't creepy.
I don't get it.
What, what are we looking for?
Wait a sec.
Huh, dewey decimal.
would be useful again.
It should be here someplace.
The numbers run out.
I don't know if I'm ready for this.
Wait, wait.
What?
What if it's a bomb?
It doesn't sound like one.
It's not a Christmas present.
It is a Christmas present.
Whoa.
My folks never gave
me anything this cool.
Run!
Wait! Wait!
Just take it.
This is what you're looking for!
Please, just leave me alone!
Hey, what the...
Hold, hold it right there!
Come on!
He dodged a bullet.
Hey, how did you catch that guy's punch?
You were moving as fast as he did.
I was trying not to die.
Guess what.
You snore.
Wait, where's the, the ah, the...
Um, I was a bad girl.
I couldn't wait.
But, it wouldn't let me in.
It's a video.
Awesome, right?
Yeah.
Awesome.
It's great.
So?
I don't, how should I know?
I don't even know who's asking.
Try it.
What?
Somebody's messing with me.
Well, what's the answer?
No, there's no way anyone
could ever know that.
Hello.
I am...
I don't know how to start.
I, I didn't even know if you'd remember
that last birthday we spent together.
Dad?
I wish I could see you right now.
Wonder if you look more like Jos or me.
Look, I wanna explain everything
but I don't have a lot of time
and neither do you.
Now, there's something you need to know.
You and I are not normal.
You're a hybrid.
to test for colonization.
Colonization?
Without success.
And then, I met Joselyn.
