The world will have to deal with us.
Previously on The 4400:
You're the alternative we need to Collier
and his promicin-pushing radicals. Does that mean you'll run for council?
That means I'm gonna run and I'm gonna win.
Promicin is out there.
People are gaining abilities and nothing can be done about that.
Who's Cassie?
I'm not what you'd call real. I'm Kyle's ability.
Everything in that book is going to come true.
Collier will lead the human race to salvation.
You will help him.
Isabelle Tyler?
I've done bad things.
And I'm supposed to do more.
I was sent to help you get away. This is all happening for a reason.
Do you believe Jordan Collier is a messiah
and that promicin's gonna save the world?
Kyle, listen to me. If you're involved in something...
The lab report you asked for,
the samples came back positive for promicin.
Kyle.
Kyle?
Hey, Dad, what's up?
- Where are you, Kyle? - Is something wrong?
I need to talk to you about it. It's important.
But we have to do it in person. Can you come home now?
Sure, yeah. I can be home in, like, 20 minutes. What's wrong?
Twenty minutes. I'll be here.
You can't go back there, Kyle.
He knows.
Knows what?
What do you think?
Your father knows you took the promicin shot.
What's he gonna do?
Is he gonna tell NTAC?
If I can't go home, what am I to do? Where do I live?
- You can move on now. - Move where?
You're heading north.
Take Highway 99 until it crosses with Rural Route 57.
Follow that and you'll find an old logging pass.
When it ends, get out and start walking, due west.
What am I looking for?
Go there.
Enjoy the surprise.
Hey.
I heard talking. Is everything okay?
You have to get ready, okay? We're leaving.
Don't let them take me!
Maia.
Oh, sweetie.
It's okay.
Sweetheart, it's okay. Nobody's taking you anywhere. You--
You just had a nightmare.
It's like a prison.
All the people with abilities are there.
They make us line up,
then they take us away.
Someplace bad.
What kind of place?
You've had this dream before?
That was the second time.
I thought it was going to go away.
But it didn't.
It's okay, sweetie. Come here.
It's okay, baby.
What are we even supposed to be looking for?
We're in the middle of nowhere.
Cassie said to come here, that means there's something here.
That cell tower services the entire area.
And you're positive that's the final signal from my son's phone?
All right. All right, thanks.
Just for once, I'd like to beat you in here.
Diana.
Listen, I have to leave for a while. Kyle's in trouble.
Is he? What's wrong?
I can't get into it, but I have to find him. I need you to cover for me.
I just got off the phone with Kyle's wireless carrier.
The last signal from his cell phone came four hours away.
It could be a while, a day or two.
Well, tell me what's wrong. I'd like to help.
The best help you can give me is to cover my back.
Tell anyone who asks that I'm in the field on one of our cases.
- Okay. - I'll call you when I find him.
Tom?
Good luck.
Thanks.
Oh, my God.
You trapped me. You led me right to him.
How did you find this place?
I took the shot.
I have these visions. They led me to you.
They told me I have to bring you something. Hey, it's just a book, man.
All right, it's important. It's about you.
You have to read it. There was this religious movement
about 90 years ago. White Light. They called it a cult.
This book was their prophecy.
It's all about promicin, the movement.
It's the reason I'm supposed to find you.
And her?
Were you supposed to lead Isabelle Tyler to me as well?
I was guided to her. The same way I was guided to you.
She's gonna help us with the movement, Jordan.
I'm not a threat to you.
I don't have my abilities anymore.
Well, what could you possibly do for me?
I don't know.
That's you.
I'm telling you, it's all about you.
Bring them.
Mr. Farrell has been handed this remarkable ability,
but he himself is simply not that distinguished of a young man.
Now, even if he was the second coming of Robert Kennedy,
I would still say
that a 4400 has no business running for public office.
- Today's clippings. - Do I wanna read today's clippings?
Everyone respects your healing work, but they're calling you out on your age.
Your inexperience. Your lack of education.
- Your connections with Jordan Collier. - I get it. I get it.
It's just do I really have to study
my own shortcomings? That's what I wanna know.
The campaign manager thinks you do.
She got you a meeting with Gabriel Hewitt later today.
And you're gonna have to be able to refute his talking points one by one.
Have a sit-down with a man that's been badmouthing me
to anybody that will put a camera in his face?
I think the idea is to win him over.
Tell him about the foundation.
Convince him you are not some pawn of Jordan Collier.
I admire you, Kyle. Given your background,
it must have been difficult for you to take the promicin shot.
But I've read your book. It's wrong.
- I'm no messiah. - I know how it sounds.
It was hard for me to believe too. I'm nobody's religious nut.
But these visions I have are never wrong. Not once.
If they say that book is important, I have to believe what's in there.
Promicin isn't just here to improve the world, Jordan.
It's here to bring heaven to Earth.
I don't know exactly what that means,
but you're supposed to make it happen and I'm supposed to help you.
It's like it says in the book.
You are gonna lead us all to God.
Untie him.
We'll continue this somewhere more comfortable.
What about me?
I'll deal with you soon enough.
Goodness me, it's a customer I don't recognise.
Will wonders ever cease?
I guess you don't get many visitors here.
This town isn't even on my map.
That Highway 2 running a few years back.
Since then, we've been a little short on visitors.
But it's a treat to have one as handsome as you.
Kathy, would you stop flirting with the poor man
and see if he wants some lunch?
I'm good. Thanks.
You don't come all this way to skip my famous apple pie.
Tell the man, will you, Shannon?
Kathy makes a mean apple pie.
It's the house speciality.
Well, I'm sure she does.
Look, I wish I had the time. I was hoping to find the sheriff.
There was a note on the door.
He should just move his office in here.
Thanks.
My son's driving a green Saturn.
Well, there's not much reason to come out here.
But if I do see it, I'll definitely give you a call.
If your boy did pass through here, I'm sure he's moved on by now.
You're welcome to have a wander. Ask around.
- I appreciate that, sheriff. Thanks. - Not a problem.
Is there anything we can get you for the road?
You should try the pie, mister. It's really good.
I'll pass, but thanks.
- You're sure? - Yeah.
Bye.
The question is, are we just talking about a kid's recurring nightmare
or is it something worse?
Well, obviously, I'm pulling for nightmares.
Maia's visions don't usually happen while she's sleeping.
And she wasn't seeing this while we were in Spain.
And the headlines aren't exactly reassuring these days.
They're more immediate when your mom brings you back to the front lines.
Maybe so, but we can't really rule out visions either, can we?
We're talking about prison camps. Maia hasn't broken any laws.
She is a 4400. She didn't take promicin.
I'm afraid that distinction doesn't mean much these days.
People are scared.
A lot of them wanna lock up every P-Positive out there.
The wrong leader comes to power,
someone who exploits all that fear everybody's feeling,
and suddenly this doesn't seem so far-fetched.
There's a more productive way to look at this.
I mean, if they are visions, at least we've got some warning.
You know, if we had more specifics,
maybe we can make sure they don't come true.
I'm trying to stop my daughter from having these nightmares,
not encourage her to have more specific ones
so that you can analyse them.
Thanks for your help though.
Excuse me?
Sorry. I didn't see you there.
- Can I get you something? - Yeah, I'm on my way out of town.
Any chance I can fill up? Your pumps don't seem to be working.
I haven't had a gas truck around in a while.
But I think I've got a spare gas can in the back.
Just give me a sec.
Yeah.
What are you doing, mister?
You took my son's car. Where is he?
- Calm down. I don't know. - Where's Kyle?
- I don't know, man. - Now you hold it right there.
Take your hands off that man right now.
Sheriff, this man has my son's car. Tell him. Tell him!
- Don't know what you're talking about. - He's been messing with this
for months. Now you said yourself your boy just drove through here today.
- That's my son's car. I know it is. - No.
Now, look, I am sorry for your troubles, mister, but you're wrong.
And I don't think we can help you here.
So maybe it's time you just moved on, huh?
The starter's on the fritz.
Give me a hand here?
You shouldn't have seen that, mister.
Who are you people? What is this place?
- And you say you deciphered this? - Isabelle did.
It's a list of names, but it's people who are alive today.
Politicians, religious leaders, scientists.
The book says that once these people all take promicin, everyone will.
It's like a domino effect.
And that's when--
When God comes?
I know it sounds crazy, but--
Only if you take the book literally.
I mean, God could mean any number of things.
If these people saw a world healed by promicin,
they could have interpreted that as heaven.
I don't know. The only way we'll know is if we just follow the book
and see what happens, right?
We've allowed the government to characterise the movement
as a revolution.
Revolutions divide. Destabilise. Spread fear.
Religions...
Religions unite.
There's an NTAC agent somewhere in town.
Apparently, there's an NTAC agent in town looking for his son.
My Dad knows I took the shot. He must've tracked me here.
He would've come on his own. He's just looking to protect me. That's it.
Jordan, be careful with him, okay?
He's my father
and he's the last name on the list.
The book says your father has to take the shot?
Yeah.
Interesting.
So the application process for the healing foundation is blind.
It helps to avoid favouritism.
And we average about a dozen treatments a day now.
Well, the work you do here is remarkable.
But then I already knew that.
Well, does that mean you're gonna stop slinging mud at me?
Quite the contrary.
I intend on attacking you right up until the day of the election.
You seem to be taking this as if it's some referendum on your character.
I assure you that it isn't.
Personally, I think that you are an exceptional young man.
There are a lot of people out there that are afraid of what you represent.
So going after you, well, that's just good politics.
So you don't think I'm a threat, but you're going to say that I am anyway?
You...
You look so shocked.
Look, I have my eye on something greater than just city council.
When you declared for the race,
you brought the national media spotlight with you.
And if I didn't take advantage of that,
well, I wouldn't be much of a politician now, would I?
Don't make a sound.
Now, open the door. Open it up.
Whatever you can do, whatever your ability is, don't try to use it.
I can't hurt anybody. Please you-- Put the gun down.
What is this place? What did you people do to this town?
It was an old timber-mill town.
It was abandoned years ago. So we came and made it our own.
- Who's we? - All of us.
Everyone who lives here has taken the shot.
We wanted a place where we could live
without fear of being arrested.
That won't work here.
We have someone who can disrupt electrical signals.
What did you do to my son?
Nothing. He came to us.
He's safe.
- He's being taken care of. - Then take me to him. Now.
No, I wouldn't say that my meeting with Mr. Farrell
did anything to convince me that a 4400 should hold public office.
Maia, what are you doing up?
I'm not tired.
Is that true?
Or are you just worried about what you might dream?
Sweetie, it's okay to be scared.
You know, you're upset and we've--
We've been through a lot of changes.
Why are we back here? Why do we have to find a new school?
- And why is Ben gone? - Well, sweetie--
And why do you always call me sweetie when I get upset?
I'm not a little kid anymore.
No, okay. Maia, you're right. You're not a little kid.
And I understand if you're mad at me.
I mean, we've moved around a lot, but this city, as scary as it can be,
is the one place where your mom can do the most good,
and that's important.
And I tried to pretend that it wasn't
and I-- I hope you'll appreciate that one day.
But, sweetie--
Maia, you can't stay up forever.
It will only make you feel worse. Do you think I could have that can?
Kyle.
- Kyle. - Here.
- Hey, Kyle, are you all right? - I'm fine, thanks.
But I'm not Kyle.
Collier, get down on the ground.
Hello, Tom.
Welcome to my town.
That bacon smells good, huh?
Okay, so to make scrambled eggs...
Do you wanna crack the egg? Okay.
Oh, I hope we didn't wake you.
We figured you would wanna sleep after last night.
How do you like your eggs?
Morning, Tom.
What did you do to me?
Well, we've taken steps to ensure that you behave yourself
while you're our guest.
That bracelet you're wearing? Our town mechanic created that.
Dalton. I believe you met him.
It's quite a device.
It allows us to track you wherever you go.
And that-- That pain in your head? He did that.
He's capable of worse.
So if you become violent while you're here
or make any attempt to leave Evanston--
Where's Kyle?
Kyle is fine.
We've been talking. He's a very brave young man.
Where is he? I wanna see him.
Not yet. Kyle and I agree, you're not ready.
You don't understand what we're trying to accomplish here.
All right, then tell me, what is this place?
It's a model for a better world.
I gathered these people.
They all took the shot and left their old lives behind.
Well, they've created something better here in Evanston.
Have a walk around.
See for yourself.
Maia's dreaming about Gabriel Hewitt?
In her nightmares, he's some kind of leader.
President, vice president, cabinet member. I don't know.
But he seems to be overseeing some extremely repressive measures
against the 4400.
Nobody respects your daughter's ability more than I do.
And I'm sorry that she's seeing these things, but Hewitt,
he's on the Seattle City Council.
That's a long way away from pulling these kinds of strings.
Look, please understand.
I think you've taken a very brave step by declaring for public office.
I mean, it's exactly the kind of gesture this country needs.
But, I mean, you have to consider that you may inadvertently
be giving a platform to a very dangerous man.
What are you asking me to do?
Drop out? Because that's not gonna happen.
I'm not asking you to do anything. I just want you to have the facts.
But these aren't facts. They're dreams.
Shawn...
Even if they are visions,
I stop them from happening by staying in the race,
by taking a stand against hatred and proving Hewitt wrong.
I hope that's what happens.
But right now, that's not what Maia's seeing.
We're not the enemy, you know.
We just think people deserve a choice.
I was in a bad place when I took the shot.
Most of us were.
But now I can do something wonderful.
Something no one else can.
What is it?
Your ability?
I guess you could call me an anxiety extractor.
I talk to people.
Actually, they do most of the talking, but when we're done,
they feel better.
All their worries just gone.
What's that, like a souped-up shrink?
I don't have any advice.
Believe me.
But it works.
I've talked to just about everybody in town.
Would you wanna try it?
I don't think so.
Think of it as a good-faith gesture.
You'd be one step closer to seeing your son.
Plus, no offence,
but I think you could use it.
Kyle says you're essential to what I'm doing.
He's a very forgiving young man.
He wasn't there when you killed 4400s.
Why shouldn't I be rid of you forever?
I don't know.
I'm not in that book.
But when I first got older,
I was told I existed to stop the 4400.
And that's what I tried to do.
You beat me.
I thought I'd spend the rest of my life in prison, thinking about what I'd done.
And then Kyle found me.
He told me I have a purpose.
He told me I could still be good.
And you have no idea how much I want that to be true.
So if helping you
is a way to make my life mean something,
I wanna try.
If I accept what Kyle says about our movement,
I have to accept what he says about you.
But the first moment you make me nervous,
your invitation is rescinded.
And you can guess what that means.
Cut her down.
Every move I make, it seems like there's some--
A loss that comes with it.
The woman I love is gone. I'm losing my son to Collier and--
Are you done?
How do you feel?
Wow, I actually feel better.
It's not permanent.
We would need to have follow-up talks.
What is this?
Whenever I talk to someone, at the end, there's one of these.
I think it represents all of the bad stuff inside of you.
The fear, anxiety.
You should keep it.
A little reminder of what we do here.
Kathy, you weren't lying. This pie is delicious.
Yeah, the pie's pretty good.
The aftertaste is a killer.
Aftertaste? What aftertaste?
You'll see.
He's getting scared.
Shannon, tell him it's okay.
It's all right, Tom.
Just relax.
The pie had a little something in it.
Something? What do you mean, something?
What something?
It's a special ingredient, courtesy of one of our residents.
After we take it, we share one mind.
We can see each other's memories.
It's how we know each other better.
It's amazing if you just relax.
This was Billy's last birthday
before his parents were killed in a plane crash.
That's Paul and Kathy.
They were so cute when they were young.
He popped the question after three weeks.
He said he just knew.
They can't see us?
We're not even really here.
It's just a memory.
I've never seen this before.
This is me.
Oh, my God, that's me.
That is so fun...
We won the league championship that year.
My father actually came to the game.
Hey.
Hey, I...
I don't know what to say.
- Another satisfied customer. - Yeah.
That was amazing.
You know, I feel like I know you all now.
- It's pretty intense, isn't it? - Yeah.
I'm just glad you finally accepted the invitation.
Yeah, me too.
Hey, Dad.
Glad you got to spend some time in this place.
These people, they're not evil.
They're just looking to make a better life for themselves and they did.
How could you take the shot? How could you risk your life like that?
It was worth it, Dad.
It brought me here.
In a weird way, it brought us together.
I know our relationship has always been complicated,
but this place is simple. It's good, Dad.
The life they're living here, Dad, that could be our life.
We could live here. You and me.
Isn't that what you want? For us to be together?
Of course. More than anything.
If you wanna stay here,
if you wanna live here with me,
you have to take the shot.
Kyle, you know I can't do that.
You're afraid of dying, Dad?
Because I promise you, if you take the shot, you will live.
How could you know that?
Everybody here has an ability. So do I.
I can't talk to you about it right now, but I know that you'll be okay.
I know that's a lot to take in.
You don't have to give me an answer right away, just sleep on it.
I know I haven't said this to you in a long time,
but I love you.
Do you think he'll do it?
Part of him wants to.
I can see it in his eyes. He knows this place is good.
But his whole life has just been about duty.
The FBI, NTAC.
I'm not sure he'll be able to turn his back on all that.
- And if he says no? - Well, his name's in the book, right?
It's pretty much a guarantee that he can survive the shot.
Can't we just make him take it?
I've never forced anyone to take promicin.
The movement's always been about choice.
But your relationship with your father, it's intricate.
So if you think it best to give him the shot,
I'll respect your decision.
So if I stay in the race, I'm creating a monster.
You don't know that for sure.
Remember, we're talking about dreams.
No, these aren't just dreams.
This girl predicted that Jordan would be shot. She can tell the future.
And Hewitt said it himself when he was here.
He's using me to get attention for his career.
I can't just sit on this. I have to do something.
If Jordan found out that some guy was rising to power on his back
and he could become some kind of home-grown Hitler,
he wouldn't just sit around wringing his hands. He'd--
He'd act.
Good morning, Tom.
You're donating promicin?
Every week. We all do.
I hate needles.
But Jordan's given us all so much.
We figure the least we can do is give something back.
I rigged up this machine here.
You wanna see how it works?
I'm glad I saw this place.
And I know how much it means to you.
And for the first time, I feel like maybe I understand what Collier's trying to do.
Yeah.
But I can't be a part of it.
You're holding on to this idea of yourself as our opponent. Our enemy.
You can just let go of that. It'd be so easy.
It's not about that, Kyle.
This town, it's like-- It's like a little utopia.
But it exists to send promicin out into the streets.
No matter how you look at it,
half the people who take that shot are going to die.
- And I can't live with that. - You have to.
We all have to, Dad. Forget fifty-fifty, okay?
If the movement doesn't succeed, nobody has any chance.
I don't believe that.
I can't.
I get it. You have to follow what you believe.
- And so do I. - No, wait, Kyle.
You are the only thing that could tempt me to do this.
And I love you.
Get out of my way. I'm leaving.
I'm sorry you've declined our invitation, Tom.
I'm sorry your lack of faith will cost you your son.
I'm walking away.
You go ahead and give me a stroke if you have to,
but I'm walking out of this town.
You know I can't let you do that.
No. No. No.
I told you. I'm not taking the shot.
No.
Kyle. Kyle.
No. No!
No. No.
No! No. No. No.
Kyle.
Kyle!
It's not just about the politics, is it?
What the hell are you doing here?
Everything that you said to me in my office that day was a lie.
This is private property.
You know that I can have you arrested for trespassing.
Truth is you hate us all.
You hate all the 4400.
So what if I do? I mean, what difference does it make?
Now I'll ask you again. Why are you hanging around outside my garage?
What are you doing here?
I wanted to see you without cameras
when you put your public face up for the night.
Have a look at your eyes.
I have reason to believe that you're capable of terrible things
and that you have an evil living inside of you.
What if you did see evil?
Then what?
Honestly, I don't know what I would do.
But the truth is I can't see anything.
You may be full of fear and hatred, but you're just a man for now.
Listen, you may not know it yet,
you wouldn't make a very good leader.
I'm not gonna let you become one.
But your promicin test came back negative.
Yeah.
I'm so sorry about Kyle, Tom.
Look, we need to call Meghan.
Issue a new APB.
Jordan Collier, his followers,
and my son.
I couldn't force him to take it, Jordan. I'm sorry.
Well, I left the choice up to you.
Anyway, the sedative we gave him
gave us enough time to get out of Evanston.
But he's gone. I lost my dad. We lost my dad.
His name's in the book. If he doesn't take the shot, we don't succeed.
Then you need to have faith he will.
But it won't happen because we forced it on him.
One day, Kyle,
I believe your father will come to us.
We lost Evanston because of me. I cost us paradise.
It's all right.
Evanston was never meant as a permanent settlement.
It was only a dress rehearsal for paradise.
So, what do we do now?
There are all these people here.
What are you gonna do with them?
None of you should lose hope.
There is a next step.
There is a home waiting for each and every one of you.
We're going to Seattle.
