Continuum

Previously on Continuum...

My suit is damaged.

You told my dad about me being at the riot.

You sold me out.

I mean I don't know what you know or how you know it...

Smart and secretive,

it doesn't get any worse than that.

I don't know why you trust that guy.

I don't trust him.

Okay... To SadTec's new Cascadia resident evil genius.

It's not every day my best friend gets access

to billions of credits.

Just a slip of the decimal point

could erase our life debt completely.

All right, come on now.

Another bottle!

We've had enough.

You're no fun.

She is no fun.

Excuse me, I'll be right back.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Hey tiger, the men's room... back that way.

I'm exactly where I wanna be.

What are you doing?

Don't tell me you haven't felt the same way.

I've seen you...

You call yourself Greg's best friend?

Get out!

So, big plans tonight?

I'm gonna go home,

I'm gonna take off my shoes,

I'm gonna order dinner and then I'm gonna go to bed.

You?

Oh, order pizza, probably crack a beer.

Probably watch a sports channel

and fall asleep on the couch.

Need a ride home?

Oh... hold on.

Fonnegra...

Hold on a second.

Sure.

You should ask him out to dinner!

What?

No!

I'm married.

I'm not talking about a date.

I'm talking about socializing with a coworker.

You know, breaking bread, letting your guard down.

It's something we humans did in 2012,

it's called friendship.

I have friends.

In 2012?

Ask him out.

So if you're not doing anything tonight...

Sorry, that was a friend.

You'll be okay to find your way home?

Oh, yeah no problem.

See you tomorrow.

That sucks, I'm sorry.

Great.

Okay, so you got me home.

Give me my keys.

I can make it in myself.

A gentleman always walks a lady to the door.

Okay, you can go now.

Don't even wanna tell me your side of the story?

I just had a few quick questions.

Jim's the one who's all "get out of here

or I'll call the police".

Wait, you went over there as a reporter,

not as a friend?

I can't talk about it.

Come on, what?

Is this an election story?

Something about Jim's campaign?

You wouldn't understand.

Of course I wouldn't.

Better?

No.

Alicia... just don't go there, okay?

I'm going there.

Tall mocha macchiato, right?

Is it poisoned?

Can't a guy just buy a girl a coffee?

That's the thing...

it's never just a coffee.

What do you need?

I have procured the access codes to several government

and private telecom feeds that cover the west coast.

Satellite, cellular, imagery data...

the works.

I'm thrilled.

Why do I care?

You know, once we figure out how to use the codes,

you can track down Kagame and the gang

before they come after you.

Don't you mean come after you?

What?

Well, since we happen to be in the same boat...

You need me to make the codes work.

No!

But I uh, I did write down the name of a, of a...

you mind?

Of a guy who knows a woman that might know a programmer...

Really?

Well what do you know... he's early.

You making some friends?

He was lost.

Those for me?

How was it last night with your friend?

Oh, fine.

I didn't stay long.

Went home, watched the game.

You?

It was good.

There's a place near my house and it has the best pizza

so I just...

Wait, wait.

What address did they just say?

Uh, dead body, 126 Venables street.

2077.

My time, my city, my family.

When terrorists killed thousands of innocents,

they were condemned to die.

They had other plans.

A time travel device sent us all back 65 years.

I want to get home

but I can't be sure what I will return to

if history is changed.

Their plan, to corrupt and control the present

in order to win the future.

What they didn't plan on

was me.

CONTINUUM S01 Ep07 - The Politics of Time

Cleaning person found the body about 8 AM.

Can't say how long she's been dead.

Five to seven hours.

I'd like to take primary on her, sir.

We were first on the scene.

Okay, you got primary.

Just remember, a reporter is dead.

This could be a very high profile case.

I want everything done by the book, okay?

Yes sir.

I'll keep you informed.

She's been dead about five to seven hours,

but you probably already knew that.

Hey!

You uh, wanna put one of these on?

Thanks.

Ligature marks on her neck, petechial hemorrhaging...

death is probably due to strangulation.

Maybe it was after sex.

There are some pretty kinky sex toys in the bedroom

and the bed's a mess.

Witnesses?

Neighbours said no one saw or heard anything.

Hey, your dad wants us to fix the fence in the back acre.

Yeah, well why don't you do it yourself traitor.

I'm not the one who ran off and joined the demonstrators.

Yeah, and you just couldn't wait to tell him about it.

Now he took the keys to my truck and my cell phone.

You blame me?

You're the one who screwed up.

So much for brotherly love.

Jim, we've been friends for 20 years.

I need you to explain exactly what happened last night, okay?

I get a call from you to come over to your house

and pick up Alicia.

I get there, I find you two screaming at each other.

And then Alicia's dead.

Alicia said she had some dirt on me

that she was going to publish.

I asked her to leave, she refused.

She threatened to make a scene,

you know how she gets.

She's like her mother.

What kind of dirt?

Election financing irregularities.

So this wasn't true what she had on you?

No, of course it wasn't Carlos.

I can see the headline now, union president Jim Martin

fights with reporter the night she was killed.

I'm gonna lose this election tomorrow.

Look, I can keep you out of this okay,

for a couple of days.

Carlos, I don't want...

Jim... I'll handle it.

Alicia Fuentes, she was an investigative reporter

for The Post.

Cause of death was strangulation

and there were no signs of forced entry,

but there was a struggle.

As of now there is no DNA from the perp.

I heard she was sexually assaulted.

Perp was wearing a condom.

Did she have enemies?

She was an investigative reporter,

if she was doing her job, she had enemies.
