Debris

My dad was the first to be told the truth about what they found.

- Big shoes to fill. - He was buried five months ago.

- How was this even possible? - We're looking into it, Harris.

That story that you shared in the plane, it stuck with me.

Why are you asking me about my father, Bryan?

Because your father's alive.

What are you not telling me?

Something is going on

that both of us don't understand.

I need to know if I can trust you.

You can.

Do you see it?

No.

I told them we'd be on the ferry by nine.

I'm not gonna stress out because your father has to micromanage

every single thing, Linda.

I guess I ruined that the ferries are on time.

What?

Just text him and tell him the ferries are off schedule.

Excuse me, folks.

Sorry for the delay.

The ferry's about 15 minutes out.

No. No.

- Kenny, good to see you. - Brian.

Hey.

Have a seat. I need to get you up to speed.

His name is Anson Ash.

Ex-SAS.

Long history of recovery experience.

British Intelligence says he went AWOL six years ago.

He was a decorated soldier

and then became an issue for them.

Have you got any more clarity on INFLUX?

Where it started?

Anti-government ideological movement

organized to dismantle the government's control over the Debris.

So far, we don't know where they started,

and we don't know where the dark money's coming from.

Largely, we think they're autonomous cells.

I, um... We got his phone,

but there's some sort of proprietary encryption on it.

Have you ever seen anything like that?

- Calls keep coming into it. - No.

The caller's coming from somewhere in Maine.

- What's in Maine? - Another operating cell,

or an impending event.

I need you to go and investigate quietly.

We wanna keep the lights off.

At least then I can tell how dark this thing is we're looking at.

I don't wanna lose any more lives, Bryan, okay?

Has Anson Ash revealed what they wanted with George Jones?

Not yet, but he will.

What?

I think Finola and MI6 know he's alive.

How?

Just intuition.

I've spent a lot of time with her recently,

and she's acting differently.

I just wanted you to be aware,

in case what I'm saying is true.

Okay. Thanks.

Hey.

I got new briefing from Maine.

Did Maddox get any more Intel about my father?

No, not yet.

Yeah, well, I think he's just going to hold on to whatever he learns.

If it is an INFLUX cell out there,

at least I'll be able to interview them myself before Maddox,

see what else I can find out.

I told him you know your father's alive.

- Why? - I didn't tell him I told you,

but I can't let him be vulnerable to Ferris.

He needed to know.

Until there's incontrovertible evidence against him,

I can't accept what you've been told.

Okay.

AC-130s... I spent way too many hours in those things.

- Hey, guys. - Hey, Tom.

What do we got?

We tracked the calls made to Anson Ash's phone.

They were placed from a burner purchased a local Best Buy.

Purchaser was a Bar Harbor resident with a long rap sheet.

He killed himself this morning.

Thing is he did it in front of witnesses, but nobody remembers anything.

They say they don't know what happened.

It looks like everyone else is in some kind of trance.

She took that blue bag he has with him.

He's fighting against something.

We found the woman wandering on a highway six miles away.

No bag or any Debris. She doesn't remember a thing.

He was clicking out at 240 when he brought him in.

Well

he was definitely near Debris recently.

New divorce,

got into some small-time trouble here in Maine,

and he doesn't even have a passport.

So?

Well, he doesn't seem like an ideological terrorist.

Well, clear-skins are usually chosen by terrorist organizations

for exactly that reason.

They're unremarkable, they're under the radar.

Yeah, but he didn't keep it clean.

I mean, there's check kiting, forgery,

Liam Packard's been committing petty crimes since he was 15 years old.

He and Anson Ash were trading calls several times. There had to be a reason.

Yeah.

Maybe he was part of a sleeper cell.

Maine is an easy hop to the Canadian border.

It's right on the Atlantic.

I mean, it's the perfect spot for Influx to set up.

Let's go check out his house.

Stand by.

- You Luke Packard? - I am.

Hey. We've come to talk to you about your brother Liam.

That's a lot of man power for a dead man.

Is it about the UFO?

Why would you say that?

Liam found some small pieces of a strange metal

out in the wash behind our property.

- When was that? - A few weeks ago.

There's this group on the Internet

that tracks this sort of thing,

like it's some kind of alien tech.

Supposedly, pieces of this spacecraft fall to Earth.

Liam said this was a part of it.

And what did he do with what he found?

He was always chasing after some get-rich-quick scheme.

He was gonna sell it to some people he met online on the dark web.

Do you know who he was gonna sell it to?

It was a black market type of thing

he said offered him a lot of money.

Like, 50 thousand dollars.

He said he was on his way to Winter Harbor this morning to do it.

To trade. At least that's what he said.

Caroline, hey, sweetie, can you...

Can you give us a few minutes?

I'm just talking to my friends here.

It's okay.

Caroline's Liam's daughter.

I haven't found a way to tell her yet.

Luke, is there anything else that you can tell us

about the metal that Liam found?

Yeah. Yeah, ever since he found it, he'd been acting funny.

Funny how?

It made him intense.

It reminded me what I used to see when I was in Afghanistan.

Almost like he was suffering from shellshock,

only there was no shells.

You know what I mean?

He'd just stare at the walls for hours.

But then it'd pass, and he'd go back to himself.

I was in Afghanistan.

Yeah? What branch?

Marines... MARSOC.

Ho! MARSOC?

You guys were no joke.

We should probably take a look at his laptop,

- if that's okay. - Yeah, sure.

We're also gonna need to take a look at the marsh, where Liam found the pieces.

It's right out back. I'll, grab the laptop.

The guy fights to keep from giving up a bag

to a woman who doesn't remember what she did with it,

and then he kills himself.

He said his brother was acting strange after he found it.

Maybe the Debris somehow took control of them all.

Like what happened to me in Kansas.

The Debris was in the bag mind-controlling him.

And it's still out there.

We should get some SAT scans going,

see if we can pick anything up.

I, wrote down the password for you.

Okay. Thank you.

You don't have any experience telling children of a loss, do you?

Yeah, it's, um...

It's not easy.

But, um, no matter what words are spoken,

just... just focus on being there for her.

That's all that really matters.

- Thanks. - Yeah.

Wow, yeah,

he definitely did frequent all sorts of conspiracy websites.

There's a lot of chat logs in here.

Like what?

Just things

that people heard, saw.

Hey, what was his reaction about?

Luke. When he heard what unit you were involved with.

Nothing.

We were just both there.

What?

We never searched the marsh.

How could we leave without searching it?

390. I don't wanna get too close.

I don't wanna be here.

You okay?

I don't think it wants us to be here.

You okay?

What was going on back there?

It was like it spoke to me.

But it was different
