The 4400

Previously on the 4400...

A comet cannot change course.

- This one has. - Then it's not a comet.

We 're not sure what's just happened.

There appears to be something out there.

The light is gone and thousands of people have just suddenly appeared!

Diana Skouris. Tom Baldwin.

You two will be one of the teams

that's responsible for investigating what happened to the returnees.

We're letting them go.

We 're letting them go?

You don't have a legal right to hold them.

Why disappear a little girl from the 19405,

hold her for 60 years,

and then send her back with the ability to predict the future?

- Can I go home? - Home?

With you. I don't like being here alone.

Shawn Farrell?

Uncle Tommy!

- Hi. - He's all yours.

- Hey, what about Kyle? - Kyle's in a coma, Shawn.

- What the hell did you do to Kyle? - I don't know what happened.

I put my hands on him. That's it. He woke up.

You're talking about some kind of ripple effect.

Diana Skouris to the head of the class.

The incidents themselves are just catalysts for change.

I swear to god! I'll ask you one more time.

Where's my son?

- Kyle! Kyle! - No! Tom, don't!

You're not my son.

- Who are you? What are you? - I'm human.

I come from a different time, your future.

In my time, humanity is dying out.

Only those we took can prevent the catastrophe from happening.

That's why they've been altered and seeded back into the timeline.

- You mean it's all going to end? - You have to help them.

Help them how?

Dad? Kyle?

I intend to provide a safe haven

for any 4400 in this country who needs one.

You goddamn freak!

- Danny, stop it! - Stop blaming me for Nikki!

I guess what I'm asking is if I could stay here for a while.

Tell me a little more about this ability of yours.

I wasn't pregnant when I was abducted,

but I was when I got back.

That baby could be the key to the future

and it has to be protected and I can do that.

Go ahead! Run!

I will find you. That baby belongs with me.

Isabelle.

Isabelle.

What is it, baby?

It's a bad dream.

The same one.

She's fine, Richard.

We're all fine.

Come back to bed.

It's probably just a raccoon.

Who was it?

Took off before I could ask.

They left something behind.

- Someone tracked us down. - Who?

Ntac? Collier?

Does this look like their calling card to you?

I don't know who it is, but someone knows we're 4400s.

Start packing.

I'll drive into town tomorrow morning,

pick up my last pay cheque and then we're out of here.

- Can't we just go now? - We're gonna need that money, Lily.

Mr and mrs sumlin, Peter. If you'll follow me.

Forgive our appearance.

As you know, this center doesn't officially open until tomorrow.

Peter doesn't have time to wait.

That's where you're wrong, mrs sumlin.

Peter has all the time in the world.

Hi, Peter. My name is Jordan Collier.

Just this way.

Our medical lab isn't quite ready,

so we thought Peter would be more comfortable up here.

Hello, Peter. I'm Shawn.

What do you say we get started? Yeah?

Okay, buddy, I want you to take my hands.

Try and relax, okay?

You're okay.

You're doing good. You're doing so good. It's okay.

- Oh, my god! Is he okay? - He's fine.

Just watch.

It's okay.

You're okay. You're okay.

Pete r?

- How do you feel, honey? - Son?

Thank you for your generous donation.

We tried everything. Radiation, bone marrow transplants.

Is he really cured?

Take him back to his doctor. Run some tests.

- Peter's leukaemia is gone. - This is a miracle.

For now, it has to remain a private miracle.

May I remind you that the confidentiality agreement

you've signed is strictly binding.

But people should know about that young man.

And they will.

In time, they'll know everything.

Very nice. Float in the five, float in the five.

- Are you nervous? - Aren't you?

No. Not at all.

Well, maybe a little bit.

Okay, a lot.

- Now, you really wanna do this, right? - Right.

- Okay. - Let's go.

It says here she registered an ability under the dinstman-lenhoff bill.

Some kind of precognitive insight?

Her visions stopped about four months ago. We're not sure why.

Too bad.

I was gonna ask if teledex will hit its quarterly projection.

Yeah.

Well, we'd like to get started, if that's all right.

Certainly.

If you'll just sign where indicated.

Diana Skouris, your adoption of Maia Rutledge

is hereby complete, legal, and binding.

So witnessed by me, Henry biederman, 10th circuit family court of Seattle.

You know, some of us have to look far and wide

to find the people we'll call family.

You two had to look clear across time.

Diana, let me introduce you to your daughter Maia.

Maia, say hello to mommy.

I'm not doing it! I mean it this time! No way!

It's just a cat scan, Kyle. You've had them before.

This one's gonna tell them the same thing

the last 150 told them, nothing!

- There's nobody in here but me! - I know that.

And sooner or later they're gonna stop looking.

- When? When? - Jesus, Kyle, I wish I knew.

But with ntac, the government,

they've got bigger issues than you or me, okay? Just...

Kyle, they're still trying to make sense about what happened

that night at highland beach. That's all.

Are they afraid if they let me out

I'm going to spill the beans about their big secret?

Well, they can relax,

'cause I just wanna get out of here and be normal again,

and normal people don't go around sounding off

about future humans and the end of the world.

Besides, I don't even remember what happened.

- I know. - Are you listening?

I don't remember!

Just calm down. Just calm down.

Dad. Honest.

Talk to someone. Anyone. Please, 'cause...

Okay, okay, okay.

Okay. Okay.

Tom!

Been a while, huh?

Yeah, you know how it is.

Us deskjockeys don't have much cause to mingle with you hotshot field agents.

Someone feeling a little sorry for himself today?

"The path to oblivion starts here."

4400 were sent back to save humanity, and I'm supposed to help them.

I was there on the beach, remember?

They gave me a mission.

And what's my biggest accomplishment of the week?

I convinced my son to take another cat scan.

You know, somehow, I don't think that's what they had in mind.

Diana, you ready to roll?

In a minute.

It's just we have to check in on three more returnees.

I wanna make sure we get our reports in by 5:00.

Okay, why don't you keep the car warmed up and I'll be right there.

You bet.

Vic Hubbard's the best lead investigator you could find?

Oh, no. He's the fourth one this year. Two more, I break a record.

We got to get you out from behind that desk.

I'm lucky to have a job here.

I put a gun to another agent's head, remember?

Yeah, well, I never said it was gonna be easy.

It's obvious what really happened.

Are you gonna start in with your negative energy again?

White holes. See, they're the answer.

That's how they took them and that's how they brought them back.

Yeah, but white holes is like your answer to everything.

- Yeah, because I'm right. - Come on now, come on.

- What's it like to not be right? - Guys! Guys!

Am I interrupting?

Brady's back on his white hole kick again.

One day you'll explain to me

the difference between the white ones and the black ones, right?

How about tonight?

How about you just give me that thing that we discussed?

- Can't. - Why not?

I already sent it upstairs.

I wonder if anyone's read it yet.

When they do, I'm sure you'll hear about it.

I owe you one, handsome.

Where's the textbook?

I thought we dealt with this this morning.

Okay, move on. Next.

"H.p. Lovecraft's at the mountains of madness."

Are you trying to tell me something?

Which orderly did you steal it from?
