Legion

Evidently on Legion...

You can't make me talk.

Where is she? Switch.

Sh-She's on the airship.

-(alarm rings) Life-forms detected.

Syd, I'm gonna change the past.

-No! None of this will happen.

We all get a do-over.

If we do this, the monsters will come

and they won't stop.

We'll be quick. One change, one small change,

and then everything will be different.

The time door's still open.

I need to get in there.

How long?

Days? Weeks?

I am coming back.

David?

I found someone.

Like me.

I'm not alone.

Ticket?

*

*

You should never have come.

Sorry. E-E-Excuse me?

I said, "Welcome to Morocco."

But you never want to land on three wheels.

(woman speaking foreign language over P.A.)

-Madam, sir, taxi? -Thank you.

Right this way.

Uh, excuse me, is there a...?

I need a...

taxi. (sighs)

Sir!

Is that...?

S-Sorry... are you here for me?

Sir, an honor.

I'm-I'm sorry.

I-I wasn't expecting a-a welcome.

-(chuckles) -Um,

-I'm-I'm sorry, who are you? -I am a subject.

A subject?

And my king is most excited to meet you.

Thank you.

("Contact" by Brigitte Bardot playing)

He is a remarkable being.

It's said he had no parents,

that the country itself birthed him from the mud.

He knew I was coming.

It's all he's been talking about.

* Contact *

* Contact. *

How much farther?

: Is it normal to feel dizzy?

I keep wondering,

if we go to the future, will they grow back?

What is doing that? What is doing that?

: Evolution.

I've got the power to move through time,

but my body's not strong enough.

I promise I just need this one thing

and I will never ask for anything again.

Wha...?

Why is it doing that? What is doing that?

Time's becoming unstable.

We should go back.

No. No, I have to find my family.

: Wait!

Aah, David!

No. No.

No, no, no, no. (screaming)

Look at you.

Such sad face.

You decide what is real and what is not.

You. Your will.

*

Welcome.

Welcome. He's waiting.

He's waiting.

*

*

Charles!

My friend, welcome!

Welcome! Come, come! (chuckles)

Oh, Charles.

Ah.

I'm Amahl Farouk,

and this is Habiba.

She's shy.

Oh, tell me, how did you like your portrait?

I made it myself.

You're an artist, too, yes?

The ease of your lines betrays an intense discipline.

I-I dabble in the arts.

Oh, amongst other things.

You're a scientist, soldier, father. (chuckles)

You know my family?

Little David? Beautiful Gabrielle?

How could I not?

Your every particle practically sings about them.

Ah, you must have so many questions, but first...

You're hungry. We shall have dinner.

Come. Come, come! (laughs)

*

So, David's here?

He should be. We followed them.

-Cary? We should be careful.

He could attack at any time.

Hi.

Did you do this?

Did we m-move your doors?

No.

But you see them, yeah?

I'm not crazy?

You're not crazy.

I have to go.

-What do we do? -(groans)

*

They're insane, you know. Babies.

All of them?

The way their brain works. They have no logic.

If they see something, it exists,

and then when it's gone...

You know, it's not crazy babies that worry me.

It's the men they become.

Like a fire,

falling in love with a fire.

We try to smother them, put them out,

but they just burn us up.

It bothers you, because you think you matter.

That people matter.

What's the point of living if not?

Have you ever seen a mass grave?

All people, with names, with families...

now just a pile.

What's the meaning of that?

But you're here.

You have a child.

All animals fight to live.

-(baby crying) -Whether they want to or not.

-It's okay. -I'm sorry.

I made a mistake. I'm not supposed to be here.

Oh, my beautiful boy, my David.

-(whispers): What did you say? -(shushing)

Mommy's got you.

*

These children, they're all...

Mute.

A tragedy.

How did they come to be here?

They were orphaned, adrift.

And when I became the king of the underworld,

I... I opened my palace to them.

: I mean, how could I not?

-That's very noble of you. -(chuckles): Oh...

It's not nobility, it's decency.

Poor creature.

Let them enjoy their games.

You and I, we have more important issues to discuss.

Where...?

It's remarkable, isn't it?

A vast other-dimensional realm

unbound by anything but one's imagination.

I call it the astral plane.

Don't tell me you have never been.

No.

Powers like yours and you don't even realize it.

Feel it.

This place.

It exists between time and space.

A land of the mind.

Yes. Anything you can imagine,

you can make it real.
