So, thank you for coming and remember to buy Skittles. There are kids in this world who are different, special. One of them found us. And became family. But her time ran out. And now, that girl is missing. And you were intended to take Adelaide's place, and I'm certain you meant a great deal to me in that other life. But in this life, my dear beloved Adelaide is still here. And I'm sorry to say, after what I saw in my office, I realize now, only one of you can exist. And I must choose my daughter. Whatever you're planning right now, Dr. Whittier, don't do this. I take no pleasure in it, but the choice is clear. She's my little girl, and you're not even human. So that's why you brought me up in this helicopter? To erase me? Because I'm not human enough? Not that I should be surprised. When someone is inconvenient, you have a history of dumping them into the ocean like garbage. I'm sure I don't know what you mean. Dr. Whittier, flying over the Gulf of Alaska now, as requested. Thank you, Charles. Now, if you wouldn't mind unlocking the door. What? Where did she go? Dr. Whittier, everything okay? Holiday is gone. Did she jump? Hey, Doc, I'm out here. Holiday. You really were ahead of your time, Doc. This heavy prototype is top notch. The hoverboard? Dr. Whittier! Gotcha! Please, please don't let go. Please don't let me go. I'm trying, but... You're slipping. Please! Come on, Holiday. You can do this. And... Up! You're welcome. Think I'll stay out here on Hovey if you don't mind. Incredible. You summoned the board to you. Didn't leave me much choice. I'm just gonna leave you alone. I'm just gonna leave you alone. I'm just gonna leave you alone. I'm just gonna leave you alone. I'm just gonna leave you alone. I'm just gonna leave you alone. You didn't leave me much choice, did you? The way you were talking, I was about to be fish food. Then why did you save me? You may not consider me human, but I wasn't going to let someone fall to their death. Even you. It really is miraculous. I built you to have a conscience. I'm sorry, Holiday. Does that mean you changed your mind? It means you may be able to summon the hoverboard, but I'm still able to power it off. What? No. Don't hit that switch. I'm sorry, but life isn't fair. No! Nooooo! Angel? What's that in your hand? Why were you being all lurky outside of James and Monica's rooms? I, uh, was looking for Holiday. Can never keep the layout straight down here. Give it up, okay? Give what up? Come with me. Ow! Let go! Where are you pulling me to? Out of earshot. So? Go. Spell the beans. Or the blood, is it? What's in that syringe? Just go back to bed. It must be awfully frustrating that you can't control my brain anymore. Free will can be so inconvenient. It's fine. But is it? Look, I know how Whittier was trying to replicate your mutation so there could be more kids like you out in the world. Is that what you're doing? I don't know what you're... I saw how your blood turned Cyrus into the incredible flying boy. Fine. Yes. This is the serum created before I was given the antidote. And why are you walking around with it after hours? I've been trying to bring back my powers. But it's not working. So, I thought maybe the next best thing would be to... test it on others. Why? There's a lot of different ways to have power in this world. And a lot of different reasons to want it. Especially here at Whittier Corp. You sound a lot like someone who grows up to be Angelica Graves. What do you know about her? Enough. So, now what? You're going to rat me out to Monica and James? Actually, no. No? But I'm not going to let you experiment on them either. I want you to inject me with the serum instead. James? James, wake up. James? James! Mos! Spiders! Spiders everywhere! Just chill out. Just me. Monica, what time is it? I don't know. It's the middle of the night. I heard voices outside my room. Who is it? I couldn't tell, but it sounded like arguing. When I peeked out, they were gone. You want to look for them? I feel like we should check on Holiday. Maybe she knows what's going on. Okay, let's go. This way. You know, we never talk about who Holiday is. You mean the fact that according to Katie, she's our daughter from the future? Yeah, it's hard to wrap your head around. Yeah. Not that I don't believe her, but it's confusing to know how life turns out. Are you bummed? You know that we have a kid or kids? No, no. I mean, it makes me happy to think that there's a whole life waiting for us, you know, together, but it also feels... Freaky. So, what do we do now that we know? Maybe we promise not to think about the future too much. You know, live in the moment, that kind of thing. Carpe diem. Carpe what? Seize the day. I think that sounds like a good plan. Good. Just something tells me that even if we do know a little bit about our future lives, we're not going to be short on surprises. What makes you say that? I don't know. Maybe because we're in some weird metal maze, 30 floors underground. Right. Even so, I'm pretty glad I'm here with you. You know? I do. And same. Look, Holiday's door's open. You guess she's still awake? Hey, Holiday, what are you doing awake? Hello? You... you're not Holiday. You look like her, but... Adelaide! You're Adelaide Whittier! I am. And I'm afraid your friend Holiday is in a lot of danger. The End Real in the Nets. Where... where... where am I? Oh, good. You're awake. Where? We're on a fishing vessel off the coast of Juno, Alaska. Deja vu much? Huh? Nothing. Do you know who you are? Do you know your name? Holiday. Is that a... a name? Yes. My name is Holiday. Okay. Great. Holiday. Good. You're... I think you're gonna be okay. Who... who are you? Oh, sorry. Where are my manners? I'm Joe. Joe Pasternak. Welcome aboard. You want me to test the Gen A serum on you? Why not? It responds to a need, right? Cyrus needed to fly, so he did. And what do you need? For starters, to find my parents. Why does it matter? You have a ready and willing guinea pig. What more could you ask for, right? Wrong. The answer is no. Why? Because I don't trust you, that's why. And I'd really not trust you if you were you plus some random special ability. Oh, you mean you don't trust me not to go on some super-powered revenge kick? Punish you for turning my brain into oatmeal? You're kind of proving my point here. I get it. But here's what I'm thinking. Hey! What do you think you're doing? Gimme that serum! Now! Get off of me! Get it to me! Stop! Angel, what are you doing? Get off of each other! Come on! Please stop what is going on! Monica, what happened? Something sharp just... shabbed me. Oops. Myruktary Imagine a place where you can escape for a day.
