00:10:41,283 --> 00:10:43,975
From which she was successful
in developing a vaccine.
182
00:10:43,977 --> 00:10:48,146
Yes! On closer examination of the
virus's RNA, it was revealed that
183
00:10:48,148 --> 00:10:49,981
Dr. Jace used a gene-editing tool
184
00:10:49,983 --> 00:10:52,316
to send me a specific amino acid chain.
185
00:10:52,318 --> 00:10:55,611
What do amino acids have to do
with our meta-stabilization problem?
186
00:10:55,613 --> 00:10:57,022
[LAUGHS] Everything!
187
00:10:57,024 --> 00:11:00,450
Twenty amino acids like
this make up a protein chain.
188
00:11:00,452 --> 00:11:03,637
This particular protein
was a byproduct of a serum
189
00:11:03,639 --> 00:11:06,998
that was the predecessor to the
metagenic vaccine in Green Light.
190
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,022
Once it's metabolized in a human host,
191
00:11:09,025 --> 00:11:10,635
it strengthens the
mitochondrial membrane
192
00:11:10,637 --> 00:11:13,086
potential of meta cells significantly.
193
00:11:13,089 --> 00:11:14,714
Don't you see?
194
00:11:14,716 --> 00:11:17,508
Dr. Jace sent me the protein
I needed to theoretically
195
00:11:17,510 --> 00:11:20,052
stabilize the meta-gene permanently.
196
00:11:20,055 --> 00:11:21,361
The only problem is,
197
00:11:21,364 --> 00:11:22,847
it can't be synthesized in the lab,
198
00:11:22,849 --> 00:11:25,683
it has to be extracted
from a human host.
199
00:11:25,685 --> 00:11:27,460
Any human host will suffice?
200
00:11:28,372 --> 00:11:30,571
Well, that where it gets strange.
201
00:11:30,574 --> 00:11:32,023
According to the ASA database,
202
00:11:32,025 --> 00:11:33,992
only one patient
survived taking the serum.
203
00:11:35,245 --> 00:11:36,582

206

of several prisoners,

including that of a minor.

As Freeland's acting Chief of Police,
211
00:11:55,381 --> 00:11:57,691
I implore anyone with

Mr. and Mrs. Singley,
230
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,243
Tavon is a very special
student here at Garfield.
231
00:12:50,245 --> 00:12:53,121
But the ASA didn't murder him.
232
00:12:54,991 --> 00:12:57,459
Then... then where is my son?
233
00:12:58,278 --> 00:12:59,694
Where is he?
234
00:12:59,696 --> 00:13:02,108
Tavon was identified as a meta.
235
00:13:02,111 --> 00:13:04,257
Our son was no meta.
236
00:13:04,259 --> 00:13:07,285

registered a month ago.
237
00:13:07,287 --> 00:13:09,457
Look! Here's the paperwork to prove it.
238
00:13:13,435 --> 00:13:16,669
Tavon tested negative
for the meta-gene.
239
00:13:16,671 --> 00:13:19,797

240
00:13:19,799 --> 00:13:21,465
and now he's gone.
241
00:13:21,467 --> 00:13:23,401
The ASA knew our son wasn't a meta.
242
00:13:24,521 --> 00:13:25,736
They didn't care.
243
00:13:27,056 --> 00:13:29,482
The law doesn't matter
anymore in Freeland.
244
00:13:29,484 --> 00:13:31,618
[MRS. SINGLEY] It's the
