The first 200 lines.
My name is Stephen Jameson.
I'm one of the Tomorrow People,
They call our powers the three T's.
Telepathy...
Telekinesis... and teleportation.
There's a shadow war going on between us and Ultra...
No! - the secret organization that hunts us.
The only way to keep my species from going extinct
is to find my father.
And the only way to do that is by working for the enemy.
Previously on The Tomorrow People...
What are you going to do with me?
Will you be so kind as to give my daughter a sedative?
No. No, get off me! I don't need your drugs!
It's okay, Cassie, it's okay.
Isn't that better?
So you think they were messing with her mind?
It was Ultra. She was strapped to some sort of device.
John, I wanted to talk to you about your problems
trying to get inside Jedikiah's head.
Maybe I can find out where he's hiding Roger's body.
Here's what I figure happened. Morgan ransacked my brain,
shared her discoveries with the Tomorrow People,
and now here you are.
You said you cremated him.
Yes, well it looks like we both have some explaining to do.
Hey, Jed.
Jed, you okay?
I heard what happened.
That guy's a total jerk. - He's right!
I'm weak.
Hey, Jed. Jed, what are you doing with that?
It's Dad's.
He doesn't know I found where he hides it.
Why?
I wanted to feel...
powerful.
Hey, hey. Don't be stupid.
I thought I was the smart one.
You're making fun of me now, too?
Put it down.
Roger! Roger! - No! Stop!
No!
How did you?
What?
How did...
Your father saved my life.
I owe him everything. - So this is how you repay him?
I loved your father.
Every book I read, every class I took,
was for the purpose of understanding him and protecting him.
He was more than my brother, he was my life's work!
Everything you see here
is part of a plan.
He never would have chosen this.
He chose survival.
I know you want him back, Stephen.
So do I.
Then why wouldn't you just tell me this from the beginning?
Because if you knew the plan,
the Founder would have sniffed it out like a shark after blood.
And if he knew that I was protecting Roger...
Protecting him? Frozen?
With a bullet through the chest?
Nothing in comparison to what Bathory,
the Founder, had in store for him.
He'd invented some kind
of machine to amplify your father's powers.
Machine for what?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Whatever it is, your father risked death to stop it.
He was always in danger
of being turned into a weapon by the Founder,
or being destroyed by him,
and the second he comes back, so does the threat.
You wouldn't have done all this if you didn't have an endgame.
A way of taking down the Founder.
A way of bringing my father back.
Oh, I always have a plan, Stephen.
No, this can't be.
Stop.
Please, stop. Please!
Tim, wake up. - My functions do not require sleep.
It seems as if yours don't either.
Come back to bed.
What are you doing,
wandering off in the middle of the night, anyway?
I keep sensing a breakout near Lincoln Center.
I wanted to see if Tim was picking anything up.
Now, usually, it's like...
like they're calling out to me, but this one...
It feels like it's coming from inside me.
The only other time I felt that was... - Stephen.
It means something, John.
The signal's so faint, the computer can't properly track it.
The breakouts could be underground, or...
Dr. Price.
Mr. Bathory.
Well, I haven't been called that name in a long while.
My apologies, a slip.
No, no, it makes me think of the old days.
And friends.
But I'm not here to walk down memory lane.
We have business.
Actually, I'm in the middle of a breakout in...
Oh, it can wait.
So...
The reconstruction of the machine
your brother destroyed is finally complete.
It's time to move forward.
How?
We've been looking for a suitable subject for over a decade.
Oh, you know very well we've found him.
Stephen? No, he's not ready.
Plus, entrusting the future
of the planet to a teenager... - You're stalling.
Perhaps you've grown a little too close to the boy.
He's my nephew.
And Cassie is my daughter.
A synergist like Stephen.
Stephen's mother is a paranormal?
Oh, you didn't know?
Oh, of course, that old familiar blind spot for family.
A luxury I cannot afford.
I had thought, perhaps, that Cassie would be up for the task,
given her pedigree, but it was not to be.
This would all be so much simpler
if we still had your brother.
Wouldn't it?
But we don't.
No, of course not.
It's a pity.
But be advised, Jedikiah.
This operation will move forward.
With or without you.
He's on to me. We don't have much time.
You still haven't told me the plan, how do we stop the Founder?
We kill him.
"We," meaning, "You."
My species can't kill, you know that.
You mean John.
Stephen, can't you see that this was part of the plan?
The reason I engineered him to be lethal?
This is crazy. - Perhaps.
But it is the only way to bring your father back.
A life for a life, what do you say?
Really, Tim? Nothing?
I think you're projecting your frustration
at not being able to locate the breakout onto me.
Don't get all sensitive on me now.
Hey, where's John?
Popcorn? - We're going uptown.
But, I was actually planning on...
Going with me uptown? Smells really good.
I can't believe you're asking me to do this.
I have been racking my brain to try to find another way.
So keep thinking.
Even if I could kill the Founder, why would I?
Because it's the only way to bring my father back safely.
So you want me to wash my hands of his blood with someone else's?
I don't want you to do any of this.
Okay? It makes me sick just thinking about it.
But if the Founder's death means my father's life?
Says who?
The same man who tricked me into killing your dad?
Stephen, listen.
It wasn't long ago that
I was starting to think this was hopeless.
That I was propping us up on...
on a promise that I had stopped believing in.
But then you came along.
And reminded me that we can change the rules.
There's always another way.
We're never trapped.
If I have to do this alone, I will. - How?
Stephen, this isn't who we are.
And it sure as hell isn't what your dad would have wanted.
Okay, how do we do this?
Well, it's simple.
And not so simple. You and John are gonna have to find...
No. No John. You want this done so bad, you pull the trigger.
Well, a human being doesn't
stand a chance against the Founder, Stephen.
So, I take it our gentle-hearted friend turned down my proposal.
I'll find a way to do this alone.
Just tell me where the Founder is.
This is a man who broke out decades ago, Stephen.
Hiding became a kind of
survival instinct for those early breakouts.
Now he has more safe houses than the CIA,
he trusts a very small group of people,
and, sadly, I'm not one of them.
You're not giving me much to work with here.
There's gotta be some way.
Yes. Provided you're willing to adapt.
So think, Stephen.
No man is an island.
His daughter. Cassie.
But she's in the Citadel. - A victim of the same experiments
