Pandora

Previously on Pandora...

My father won't always control Parallax.

If he keeps harvesting the organs of clones he grows,

he may just live forever.

Is this what Earth used to be like?

This was way before the Great Migration started.

We've all been infected.

Jax's sample is negative. No infection detected.

There's something special about you.

My telepathic powers seem to be growing.

That's telekinesis, not telepathy.

The only reason you came on this little adventure

was because I promised you information about your parents.

You used me to get what you wanted.

Wait...

Help!

You saw something.

The planet, our home, is dying.

We ignored the warnings.

We gave in to greed.

Now we must leave.

For future generations, we need to let...

Yeah, I'm watching her right now,

and I'm telling you, it smells like running away.

That's why I'll win.

Liu's opponent,

industrialist and tech entrepreneur Nelson Fisk,

also spoke to us.

You know, it's scientifically proved, you know?

She's running away from the Earth,

and we have to save the Earth.

She's a science nerd.

They wants sizzle, not steak.

Her Migration plan will be dead on arrival

once I give my proposal.

Can't just run away.

We can and we will make the Earth great again.

Yeah, if you think that's passion,

wait for the final speech.

Got to go. Duty calls.

Very important meeting.

Okay, honey, bedroom's right over there.

Make yourself comfortable.

You?

I know you, you're...

Okay, guys, guys! Get in here!

I'm one of the great scientists.

Not a lot of people know that.

I'm one of the great scientists, I'm telling you.

You know, making spaceships...

I'm trying to save the world.

I ask you, who could be against that?

Please...

just let me say one thing.

No.

No!

Today's lesson is about...

- Nice of you to join us. - ...One of the most important events in history.

The Great Migration of 2047.

In 2039, we had devastated our home.

Now, it was decided our only hope

was for much of humanity to journey to the stars

and wait for Mother Earth to recover.

But another plan was almost presented...

Are you okay?

I just had the strangest dream.

In class?

It's not that boring.

I dreamt I killed a man.

There was a man who was hailed as a genius,

a hero,

perhaps even our savior by some.

But before he could unveil his plan,

he was tragically assassinated.

His name was Nelson Fisk.

Now what's wrong?

Nelson Fisk.

That's him.

That's the man I killed.

Ah, Xander, thank you for joining us on such short notice.

I want you to meet my mentor

who first recruited me into the CIS.

Prescott Fleming needs no introduction, professor.

It's an honor, sir.

If half of what Donovan tells me about you is true,

the honor is entirely mine.

This is Prescott's better half, Maya.

Well, I know when it's time to leave.

Leave you to your work.

Lovely to meet you, Mr. Duvall.

He wouldn't tell you this,

but Donovan values your work greatly.

So don't let him convince you otherwise.

I asked Professor Osborn to summon you here today.

I have questions...

and concerns.

Some of us at CIS

are worried about certain emotional attachments

you may have.

I've been doing my job. My duty.

Of course you have.

And we expect you to keep on doing your job.

Nothing more, nothing less.

You can count on me, sir.

So let me ask you,

when the Zatarian arrived at New Portland with the girl,

why was he allowed access to a classified CIS facility?

He saved my life.

And Jax's.

Well, if the Zatarians didn't know

about portal technology before,

well, you can be assured they do now.

Are you actually accusing me of working with the Zatarians

to undermine EarthCom security?

Well, are you?

All right, enough.

There is nothing the CIS needs to worry about

when it comes to Mr. Duvall's loyalties.

I'll vouch for that.

That is all, Xander.

You may go.

You're too hard on him.

Oh, do stop treating him like a son.

He allowed the Zatarian to leave New Portland alive

Tereshkova.

Mr. Duvall is not a cold-blooded assassin, Prescott.

Nobody's perfect.

Obviously, I share your concerns about Ralen

as much as your belief that he is here

to obtain intelligence on Pandora for the Zatarians.

So why are you really here, Prescott?

Parallax.

Harlan Fried now seems to have inexplicable access

to everything we do at CIS as well.

Inexplicable access?

Unless there's a mole inside the organization.

Precisely.

We should try one more time.

We'll get it. We're going to get it.

Just keep at it, okay? Have another drink.

Ready?

I think you need to close your eyes.

Deep breaths.

Okay, that's all I've got.

I'm sorry, the rest is all you.

Just, you know, focus.

Hard.

Okay, maybe you're not there yet.

Sometimes it just takes a sec...

Oh, hold that thought.

No, literally, keep thinking it.

Oh! Oh, sorry.

Sorry, I think I broke his concentration.

Oh, boy, did the temperature just drop way down

to arctic cold or what?

More like Pluto.

Clearly, he's still upset

over what went down with his dad.

I thought after what happened with Pilar,

he'd give me another chance.

He will, just give him time.

No, but he's right, Atria.

When I encouraged him to talk to his dad and Tierney,

I did it for myself and not him.

Maybe I don't deserve Thomas's friendship.

You were there for me when I needed you the most.

And Pilar.

You're a good person who suffered a horrible loss.

He's probably just hurt

that you didn't feel you could confide in him.

So you said you had a problem.

I can't even explain it.

I guess I should be used to that by now.

Perhaps you should tell us what's going on.

I had this weird dream in class the other day,

and it really freaked me out.

I had a dream I killed someone.

His name was Nelson Fisk.

Nelson Fisk?

Well, he died over 150 years ago,

so I'd say you've got a pretty great alibi.

You are making a humorous retort,

but on Zatar, we believe strongly

in the existence of past lives.

That is exactly what it felt like.

It was so real.

It wasn't like a dream at all. More like a memory.

It's certainly possible that's what you experienced.

Is there a way that Zatarians can access

these repressed memories?

There is a ritual

which allows us to transport our minds to days long past.

But it's dangerous.

You can get lost there.

If the ritual goes wrong

or is used incorrectly,

it can lead to madness.

Okay, so that's a hard pass.

When can we begin?

Ralen.
