Don't... don't cut me with that.
Stop your blubbering.
If i wanted you dead, you'd be dead already.
Where's my urn?
Make me look for it and i'll take you to places
you never thought pain can go.
And i'll take my time.
I... i think i know what you're looking for in the wall safe.
Easy, easy.
She's been cooped up a long time.
I tried the front door.
It was locked.
You're a dead man.
Hi.
Hey, you can look, but don't touch.
You are really starting to piss me off.
And you?
Huh.
Ugh.
Agh.
You see that?
I sure did.
Adam's going to be pissed.
Months go by with nothing weird to report.
Then everything goes to hell.
In the last week we've seen teenaged girls burst
into flames in gym class...
what the hell were you two thinking?
If i hadn't tracked you down, then what?
Ashlocke was already gone by the time you got there.
And tonight, somebody just strolled through neal
varadi's web of security, brutally murdering the
mega-billionaire and his staff, and getting away
without a trace.
The cops are flabbergasted.
Right.
So what were you doing there in the first place?
I tracked ashlocke from the strand.
Uh huh.
And i followed her there.
What?
I'm supposed to let you get yourself killed?
Well, if i go, i'm taking ashlocke with me.
Yeah, that's beautiful.
Good grief.
You know, those people were massacred.
Somebody has to stop him.
You know, the only reason we survived is because
ashlocke almost passed out back there.
Yeah, like he was sick or something.
Yeah.
What?
Like physically sick?
Hunh.
Think we can take him down?
Well, this could be the opportunity that we've
been waiting for.
Use his weakness against him.
No, actually i'm talking about a cure.
Oh, that's a good idea.
Let's just keep him around a little while longer.
I'm fine, aziza.
I just overdid it.
indulge me.
I'd be through a lot faster if you would just relax.
You know, it's a good thing i love you.
Anybody else talked me like that they'd be dead...
spare me, gabriel.
This won't take long.
When are you going to stop playing hard to get?
We both know we were meant to be together.
You okay?
I heard something.
where'd he go?
Did you see him?
Who?
Ashlocke was here.
He's not here.
It's just in your mind.
No.
It's okay.
Gabriel?
Are you in there?
I guess i just got so comfortable, i got lost in
the magic of your touch.
So i take it i'm dying.
The most powerful man alive.
That power is what's killing you.
Your accelerated metabolism in tandem with the
rapid mutation of your genes.
What can you do?
Other than make you as comfortable as possible for
the time you have left, nothing.
I didn't rot in that pod for twenty-five years
just to drop dead.
I'm afraid that's exactly the way that it is.
You don't understand.
I was born to rule.
It's the ones who get in my way who die.
All right.
We need to take advantage of ashlocke's
vulnerability right now.
Well, yeah, hit him hard and fast.
No, no.
I'm talking more in the lines of a rescue mission.
You know, we're not executioners.
You're talking about rescuing the guy who wants to kill us?
That's right, and i need you to put your anger behind you.
I need you two to go out there and get me a
current sample of his dna so i can save this guy.
All right.
Let's go.
They're not fantasies.
They were flesh and blood, as real as you and me.
Oh, come on.
They called it alchemy, and what they were doing
was no more magical than gene splicing or dna therapy.
Unless you're going somewhere with this we...
i'm definitely going somewhere.
Why do you think i went to so much trouble to get
my hands on that burial urn?
Jesse!
Jess!
Oh, sorry.
Sorry. I'm sorry.
I was... still not used to...
i know.
Just be careful, that hurt.
Still sure sending them in was a good idea?
You mean, instead of sending you in?
Well, let's face it.
I know a little more about breaking and entering.
And a lot more about diving in first and checking
for sharks later.
I don't know, adam, you really think this thing's
going to work?
Well, it's not like i can do a run through...
we're just going to have to bust in there
and hit him with it.
Yeah? What if it doesn't work?
We go to plan b.
Huh.
Be great except we don't have a plan b.
You're kidding about this, right?
You can't cure him, you know?
Well, what do you suggest?
You know exactly what i think...
we should take him out and be done with it.
Look, i have an opportunity here to try to...
this isn't about you.
Well, it's not about you.
Look, you want to break something, that's fine.
Just don't break it in here.
Jesse.
Go.
Hi.
Lost?
No, i'm just, uh, stretching my legs.
Gabriel doesn't like newcomers down here.
Actually, i've known gabriel for quite a while.
Really?
Then let's you and i have a talk with him.
You know what?
I have a better idea.
What happened?
I got a little carried away.
Don't worry.
She won't remember anything.
You better hope not.
I was born to power.
Gabriel, you should be resting.
Actually, i feel sensational.
This is my future.
This bracelet belonged to an ancient alchemist named avaris...
the woman i have holographically reconstructed in all her glory.
So she was beautiful - big deal.
No, baby, it's a lot more than that.
I'm still waiting to hear how any of this crap has
anything to do with saving your life.
It has everything to do with it.
Avaris, used her own magic, to own her time.
And once i've brought her back to life, she'll use
that same magic to help me, own mine.
You're talking about primitives, people who
believe in ghosts and gods and human sacrifice.
Sounds like mutants to me.
why are you following me?
Relax.
He's a murdering psychopath.
Look, i know how you feel.
No, you don't.
Hey, ladies.
I could use a little company.
Ooh.
Come on, let's go.
Let's get out of here.
Ugh.
Explain that to your wife.
Now can we go?
Now we can go.
could you believe that cheese ball?
Told you we'd get together again before you knew it.
How'd you get in here?
Have you ever just wanted to make someone so happy...
and they just wouldn't let you?
He's not real, shal.
She's crazy about me.
We were made for each other.
Like hell we were.
That won't work.
Not on you.
Thanks.
Come on.
Aggh!
hey!
I thought we agreed, no powers.
No, you agreed.
I scored. Heh heh.
Sorry, game's over.
Things are happening at the strand.
But wait... i'm up by one point.
Believe me, i understand how important that is,
but ashlocke's on the move.
I've been using satellite surveillance
to keep an eye on the activity.
One of his strike teams is in manhattan.
You guys are going to go check it out.
Okay.
Hey!
Too slow.
And now we're tied.
Oh, great. You happy?
If anyone gets to these things first,
ashlocke will have our heads.
Aren't you guys a little old to be playing games?
Agghhh!
all that for a chunk of glass.
Come on, wake up.
Wake up.
Look at me.
What's ashlocke up to?
Do you really think he tells me anything?
Come on.
Please, gabriel.
No.
This isn't good.
Come on, let's get out of here.
Come on.
Check it.
Huh.
Ashlocke was ready to kill for this?
Ashlocke is willing to kill to get out of a parking ticket.
He's out of his freaking mind.
Yeah, must be all that power, huh?
The more you got, the more you want, and the
further you get from human.
What are you trying to say?
I'm just thinking.
Every day we learn more about these abilities.
What? Are you trying to tell me you think
we're going to end up like ashlocke?
No, that's exactly what you're saying.
Not what i'm saying.
She seems to be stabilizing.
Good.
So what do you think caused the seizure anyway?
Ashlocke.
Must have given her a...
post-hypnotic suggestion.
He probably programmed her to self-destruct
if she was ever captured.
Valerie?
Hey, you all right?
Valerie?
Adam, do something.
Valerie?
Valerie.
Adam...
adam.
Did you get a read?
Ashlocke's dying.
Valerie died for me.
But for what?
A three- thousand-year-old piece of glass that's a dead end.
Without the other half this is nothing more
than a worthless trinket.
This'll take the edge off.
The last thing i want is to kill the pain.
That's the only thing i have to keep me focused.
That...
that and the thought of sharing that same agony
with adam, of course.
emma's resting.
So you happy?
You may get your wish.
Ashlocke's dying.
Good... let him die.
It's not that simple.
Well, it seems pretty straightforward to me.
Stand back, he dies... end of story.
It's that simple.
It's not that simple.
If he's dying, then he's got nothing to lose.
If he's got nothing to lose, that makes him even more dangerous.
I'm listening.
When i die, one thing's for sure.
Life is never again going to be the same for those
i leave behind, so you better help me find that miracle.
Well, i might have an idea.
Really?
Now you be a good boy, and you go get some rest.
I mean it.
Okay, so this ouija board belonged to an ancient
alchemist named avaris, whose burial urn was owned by neil varadi.
Well, that was until, of course, ashlocke stole it.
So ashlocke must believe that he can save his life
through a translation of the formula inscribed on the crystal.
Yeah.
Now wait... check it out.
But ashlocke may not know this...
that there's two crystals, though.
Now, unless he has them both and they're
interlocked, the piece that he has?
Phtt. Worthless.
And this is the map that'll lead us to the other crystal.
Yep.
Hmm.
Nice work.
Adam?
Dropped off emma and shalimar at the pyramid.
I'm running guard duty until they've got the crystal.
Well, keep your sensors on full alert and your eyes open.
Ashlocke makes a move, it'll come out of nowhere.
Still think i ought to be down there.
Phase in, phase out, we'd be done with it.
Yeah, well, i don't give a damn what you think.
Look out.
Oh, gross.
Disgusting.
Are you feeling any better?
Oh, just marvellous.
Wait a minute.
I think this is it.
Let's get out of here.
Jesse, we got it.
No.
That's mine.
I don't think so.
Sucks to be you.
We're talking about a very powerful magic here...
if ashlocke had gotten his hands onto both of
these crystals, we'd never have been able to stop him.
So what's your plan?
Well, time to try it my way.
Well, i hope it works...
because if you're wrong, ashlocke's going to tear
you limb from limb before i get the chance to kill him.
I know i'm putting us all at risk here.
But believe me, the decision to try to save his life...
is the most difficult choice i've ever had to make.
What's the point?
Without the other half, this thing is worthless.
and there's no way we can regenerate
avaris in the time that i have left.
I promised you i'd go to any length, to save your life.
So, i've adjusted avaris's dna.
I've reconfigured it, slightly, just enough to
allow it to accept genetic matter not her own.
So we can completely regenerate her
without any more of her own dna.
And it's not a perfect solution.
She'll only live for a couple of weeks, but...
long enough for her to work her magic.
Save my life.
Absolutely.
All we have to do is introduce a human host into the tank.
The adjustments i've made will do the rest.
Thank you.
I'll never forget your sacrifice.
Sacrifice?
Oh, yeah.
Sacrifice.
Who gave you the right to tamper with avaris?
I saved your life, damn it.
That's right.
And i'll never forget you.
Gabriel.
Gabriel, please.
you went behind my back.
And let's face it, in any relationship trust is everything.
Gabriel.
Gabriel?
No.
.
So what if he does access her magic?
Well, yeah, exactly.
What do we do then?
Look, i grew up in a house where magic was a lot
more real than physics.
You know, my mom always talked about spells having
their opposites, incantations that would turn the
power against the user.
Huh.
Well, look, my skills in the dark arts leave a
little to be desired, but i'm guessing that it's a
little bit like science, where every action has a
reaction, where there are equal but opposite opposing forces.
Are you saying that if we could somehow find this
other crystal, that we could use it to turn their power against them?
It's worth a try.
Says she's all right.
But i don't know.
You want to tell her that?
Yeah, well, let's just keep an eye on her.
Because her okay and my okay are a little different.
You talking about me?
Relax.
I still think this mission is a disaster,
but i did sign on for the long haul.
All right.
So we're all agreed?
We go in, we finish the job.
Thanks.
Hey.
Sorry i snapped at you.
It's all right.
You set?
Ready.
Let's go.
You've made yourself into a goddess.
First, you get my crystals, and then i'll save your life.
I'll save your life... right here.
And right now.
You come in to my house...
and try to kill me?
I'm trying to save your life.
This one's mine.
Who the hell do you think you're dealing with?
That ten-year-old boy you used to slap into a box?
I'm trying to help you.
Like you helped me before, adam?
Right into a twenty-five year coma?
All right, fine.
Don't say i didn't try.
I've waited years for this.
I only wished i had the time to make you suffer
for as long as i have.
you okay?
yeah. Go.
Want to run?
Yeah.
Let's go get your crystal.
Things didn't quite go according to plan, huh?
Now it looks like we're going to have to live with plan b.
Why don't you rub it in?
Wouldn't dream of it.
Great.
Just in time.
get down!
Huh!
I thought this guy was supposed to be sick.
Anything i can do?
Yeah, watch my back.
Go!
Look.
Hieroglyphics.
We couldn't stop them.
no! You have no right!
we gotta get out of here!
Come on!
Got a minute?
Always.
I, uh, just wanted to say that i'm sorry for
getting in your face about ashlocke.
look, i know asking you to help keep
ashlocke alive seems crazy, particularly after
what he's done to you, but there's a lot i can
learn from him.
It's all about learning with you, isn't it, adam?
It feels like genomex all over.
What i can learn from him is how to keep you alive.
Ashlocke's not the only one with ongoing mutations.
You've seen your powers change?
Chances are they'll change again.
You saying we're going to flame out like he is?
You're not like him.
All of you are more stable.
So, um, do you think he made it out of that
building before it went up?
Oh, you know how tricky ashlocke is.
I won't believe he's dead, until i see him lowered
into the ground.
Adam?
Do you think you can do something to keep him out of my head?
I mean, i can deal with him wanting to kill me,
but, man, when he gets in there...
hey... hey you okay?
look at me.
I'm acting like a little kid.
I just never thought that i'd meet anybody that
can make me feel this weak.
It's not weakness.
The way he got to you is through your soul.
Anybody would feel this way.
Okay?
I think we have to stop him before he gets his
hooks into anybody else's soul.
We will.
