[Rayne] Hey.

We've had a few complaints about a guy

that matches your description.

You know anything about that?

- Don't know what you're talking about.

-Where you headed?

- Just walking.

-Where to?

Don't know yet.

Are you some kind of wise-ass.

I need to see some ID.

You stay there.

Stay!

Hey! What, are you deaf?

You don't want to do that.

You're real smart ass huh?

You're going in for the night.

Insubordination,

failure to show ID...

- Don't do this.

- ... and loitering.

I...can't...stop...

Rayne...

[screaming]

[grunting]

Hey.

[indistinct voice in radio]

You're so f***ing lucky

we caught this freak

before he got any further.

Now, my boss has got his head

so far up my f***in' ass

that I can barely sit down,

and I don't blame him.

He's going to have a hell of a

time keeping this one quiet.

What the hell do you want me

to do, Charlie?

You know what you're dealing with.

This one is different.

I was scared.

[Slovak] I'm not a cop.

I'm here to help you.

Zack, right?

Zach my name is Dr. Michael Slovak.

I study the phenomenon

of psychokinesis.

I own and operate my own

research facility,

where there are others like you.

It's been a real pain in the ass

trying to track you down.

I want to take that sack off

of your head and talk face to face,

but I need to take precautions.

So I'm going to inject you

with a serum

we've been developing at my institute.

It will subdue your abilities,

with no adverse side effects.

It's become necessary, a precaution.

Some people with your

abilities prefer it.

It allows them to be normal.

It will be quick.

[Zach whimpering]

[struggling and grunting]

[breathing heavily]

You're going to give yourself

an aneurysm.

You should calm down.

[breathing heavily]

[coughing]

I'm gonna to cut right to the chase.

I know who you are.

Really?

We all do.

All-- you know others like you?

- Some.

-How many?

Some.

I know you know Rachel Meadows.

We found pictures of her in your bag.

She told me about you.

I've been tracking you both

since the incident in Chicago.

You knew about that?

It made national news.

Nobody knew the cause. I did.

She's been with us almost 3 months.

The improvement she has shown

is astounding.

She looks great.

She is doing great.

I've never seen anything like her.

She's the most most powerful

psycho-kinetic I've ever seen.

But she tells me you're even stronger.

What happened with those

cops back there.

They pushed me.

I can't hold back.

Then come with me.

Let us help each other.

I want to see Rachel.

We can arrange that.

So what's it gonna be, Zack?

[voice of speaker] Show us

what you did to those two cops.

Let me see her.

Let me see Rachel and

I'll do whatever you want.

[voice of speaker] Mr. Connors,

we need you to cooperate with us.

Let me see her.

We found Zack.

Is he here?

He is.

How long has it been since

you've seen him.

I don't know.

A few years.

Then bear with me.

For this next cycle of research

and I'll let you see him.

[voice of speaker] Rip that phone

book in half without using your hands.

[clattering]

We're only half way through

the cycle, we can't stop.

My body can't take it.

We have no choice at this point.

Just let me see Zack

and then I'll continue.

We can't do that Rachel.

You still love him don't you?

It's been over a month,

there's been no progress.

You lied to me.

We've explained this to you.

We've let you see her.

I want to leave.

You're here for another 10 months...

so you being uncooperative

isn't helping anyone.

Do you understand,

why I can't take the sack off.

Because you are scared.

What is there to be scared off?

Me.

Give her 60 ml. She is not ready.

Mm-hmm.

No kidding.

Boom.

Check-mate.

- Yes?

-Check-mate.

Huh.

Oh sh*t!

Yeah.

That's four in a row.

You been feeling alright?

You know what? No!

I mean we don't have--

Zack. Zack!

Hey, hey, hey. Just tell me

what's goin' on with you?

Slovak still hasn't let me see Rachel.

Today's three months.

[camera whirring]

Nobody has seen her since she came in.

You need to let this go.

I'm not letting it go.

We need to get her

and get the f*** out of here.

You don't even know where she is.

She has to be in Slovak's house.

I'm going to go talk to him.

- I don't know m--

-You better think about it.

I'm not sticking around here anymore.

I'm getting a tolerance to this

sh*t they're putting in us.

You must be too. We should use it.

It can help us-

[Kurt interrupting]

Something you two want to share?

Just talking about Dave here,

about him kicking my ass at chess.

Dinner is in 10.

- Can I help you?

-We need to talk.

Okay. Talk to me.

It's been three months.

And I still haven't seen Rachel.

But your condition

has improved, has it not?

Hard to tell with all this

garbage you put in our bodies.

- You know as well I do--

-I wanna talk to her.

Rachel is undergoing

a very intensive cycle

in her research and development.

It is imperative that her contact

with other people

is kept to a bare minimum.

You do the same thing to her

that you do to me?

Suck stuff out of her spine.

Dope her up...

Inject her

with who the hell knows what.

I'm leaving and I'm taking her

with me.

You're not going anywhere.

You have a contract to fulfill.

Now if you'll excuse-

You lied to me.

Don't ever put your hands on me

again. Is that clear?

Kurt, get in here.

Put him down.

Goddammit.

Bastard put his hands on me.

Have him on lock down

until we can figure out

what to do with him.

He's out of control.

[Kurt] Yes sir.

And get Levine in here

I need to talk to him.

Can I have my evening

injection prepared, please?

[door opens]

Come on.

[whimpering]

On your knees.

Alright, alright.

Hurry up.

[muffled screaming]

There you go. There you go. Easy.

[screaming]

Calm down!

You've been doing remarkably well,

considering your...

incident last year. How do you feel?

I've never felt better.

Sir.

I'm also happy that the, uh...

loss of one of your eyes hasn't

impeded your abilities in any way.

Quite the opposite, in fact.

It simply forced me to work harder.

We were able to track down

Cole Reeves.

Based on the information you gave us.

He's down in Philadelphia.

- Is he alone?

-We think so.

You're going to bring him

to the institute?

No.

But you are.

You've proven yourself well.

I want to make you...

the first one with your abilities

to be part of the team.

[Intercom]

Doctor, your evening cycle is ready.

[Slovak] [pushes button]

Thank you. Come in.

We can discuss the details...

tomorrow.

- If you'll excuse me.

-Of course.

- Thank you.

-Well earned.

[Nurse] Day go well, Doctor?

Aside from my incident with Zack,

quite good.

- Did you take care of that?

-I did.

He has enough dope in him to

keep him out for the night.

Kurt is handling his restraints.

What's his current cycle dosage?

Once a day. 10 milliliters.

Starting tomorrow please bump

it up to 20.

If you insist.
