Powers

Previously on Powers...

- Johnny. - Wolfe, sir.

You made a drug out of me, didn't you?

I am void that must be filled.

And you, you have given me a chance to fill that void.

You stupid fucking idiot.

How many of them can I suck dry?

What did he say to you?

I need your help to kill Wolfe.

Allow me to explain.

You made this shit from Wolfe's blood?

And you took that drug

to try and get your powers back.

I was there.

I saw you.

I have powers.

What exactly do you have?

You should be afraid of me.

Who's the one witness we have never been able to question?

Can I interrupt?

The kid with her.

Krispin, it's my old partner's kid.

They ran the GPS on his phone.

He's at the Temple Theater.

This is the Powers' world.

And 100% fake.

Zora!

No, can somebody help?

Shit...

Like old times.

You can count on it.

Jesus.

We can do it.

You take your powers back.

You kill him.

And I'll get us out.

Whenever I try to trace it back,

work out who's to blame for what,

who owns which dead bodies,

I've never been able to get past blaming myself for all of it.

Which is just ego, you know?

It's like, I'm responsible for the weight of the world.

Now, I...

I can see now,

whoever's to blame for not killing him,

it's beside the point.

All the dead bodies belong to Wolfe.

So...

I'm going to help Johnny Royalle,

break into the Shaft and kill Wolfe, once and for all.

Why are you telling me this?

Because I need your help.

You don't even know what you're doing.

I do. I have a plan.

You've given me no choice, Walker.

I need your help.

You have invited me to join a conspiracy

to commit first degree murder!

I have to report this. I should be arresting you.

Royalle did it first.

What?

Royalle invited me to join a conspiracy to commit murder.

- We got him. Yeah. - Jesus, shit, we got him.

You got him.

You got his ass, Walker.

We got him. We got him.

Now...

We just have to help him break into the Shaft

to make it stick.

You still have a way with an entrance.

Says the man who rose from the dead.

I'm going to have to...

Oh Johnny, where's the trust?

In the past.

If you are wearing a wire, it's now useless.

Can we get down to business now?

My sense of urgency is no less than yours.

I'm trying to save the lives of over 100 innocents.

Yeah, none of whom would be in any danger

if you hadn't given them all Sway.

Are we going to keep wasting time

pointing the finger of blame at one another?

Look, Johnny,

I want to save Calista and these kids as much as you.

I'm tired of being a cop.

Ineffectual.

I want to be able to help people again.

There are things I'm going to need.

Like what?

If I keep popping around that place,

it's like I'm signing the crime.

With circumstantial evidence.

I want to be invisible.

You need to get new powers.

Can you handle it or not?

Okay, what else?

I'm going to need blueprints.

Complete and up to date.

You've been teleporting into his cell for months.

I need the plans.

Have you recorded any of your meetings?

No, he always teleports me to fry any electronics.

I could shield the recorder against that effect.

The recording isn't enough.

We need to catch him in the act.

No, if we catch him on tape...

No, Walker's right. Evidence isn't the issue.

Custody is the issue.

How do you arrest a teleporter?

You have to disable him like that.

Or he...

Drainer.

Yes, it's the only way to be sure.

Will that thing be ready? Can you shoot him with it and...

It's single use.

If the timing isn't perfect, if he saw me...

It isn't even finished yet.

You need a drainer trap.

He can get caught in one step and zap, it's on.

The Drainer pod is self-contained, for transporting prisoners.

It won't project a beam unless I overload it.

What will that do?

Probably kill any Power caught in it.

Drain them forever, at the least.

We have a Drainer trap

that Royalle is planning to walk right into.

- Wolfe's cell. - No.

- No, Christian. No. - Harley...

We have to find another way, Christian.

Harley. They need to understand why.

I'm sorry about this.

But the world as you know it is going to end soon.

- Fuck. - We should have practiced more.

I'm good. I'll be fine.

Come on, this way.

No, no, it's this way.

Are you questioning my sense of direction?

Or is that where your friends have set the trap for me?

There is no trap.

And it's this way.

The system upgrade should be completed about the same time

we finish repairs on level eight and nine.

Do you still have blind spots down there from Wolfe's escape?

We do.

That sounds dangerous.

It could be if anybody knew about them.

Okay.

So this is the end of the blind zone.

Where's the panel?

Shit.

Show Commander Cross and Detective Pilgrim how the repairs are going.

What now?

Well, if I go, I'm busted.

So, you can just...

My teleportation powers will blind the cameras.

How convenient.

What?

Give me the widget.

Teleportation is instantaneous, Christian.

I know, so hurry up already.

If this is a trap, it better be a very fast one indeed,

to keep me from popping back here and taking your head off.

Like Bug?

I never said that.

Level nine is still a mess.

But repairs on eight have reached segment four in the outer ring.

- Segment four? - Yes, sir.

The crew was able to move ahead of schedule today.

Details on your desktop.

Okay. You ready?

Go.

That looks like a teleport pulse.

I see it.

Is Wolfe secure?

Wolfe's cell, now.

Okay. Show me segment four again.

Done.

Cycle all cameras, all levels.

When I say the Black Swan can destroy the world,

I'm not being metaphorical.

It's only a matter of time,

and very little time,

before a Power of that scale manifests.

It may already be here.

Like Wolfe?

He's the frontrunner.

I will not let Royalle near him.

It's too dangerous.

Really?

You know what Sway is?

It's Wolfe.

That's what he was doing here.

He was taking Wolfe's blood and turning his DNA into a drug,

and giving it to Kidz.

How would we start?

I need to make him think that he can trust me.

How?

I promised him that I could get blueprints to this place.

Holy Christ. Why didn't you just promise my leg?

He didn't ask for it.
