Debris

Previously on Debris...

They found your father.

Our main priority is to recover George.

We can't let the Americans take possession of him.

- Dad. - This isn't a retrieval, Bryan.

- Step aside. - No.

Please tell Maddox my father wasn't even here.

Come on!

He and his government took Orbital away from me.

They are liars, all of them.

I don't know how you could've done that to us.

I have a chance to set things right.

Kathleen!

Kathleen!

What's wrong?

Who are you?

I don't know who you are.

I'm Mac. What are you talking about?

I don't know who you are.

Stop saying that, Shelby. Stop it!

That's not true!

I am your brother!

What?

Where's Kathleen?

Where's my sister?

Where is she?

We don't have a sister!

What?

Oh, no. No.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

She's gone. She's gone.

- Are we lost? - Hmm?

- Are we lost? - No, no, no.

Um, just keep going There's going to be a bend,

and you're gonna wanna take a left.

It's like he is in a coma.

Yeah. He's been through a lot.

I think he needs it.

What are we gonna do about Maddox?

He doesn't suspect anything.

I can feel it.

We're going to go to Garcia's,

get George the equipment that he needs

and let it play out.

We're betraying both our countries.

I don't even care.

I watched as they

systematically took his life's work away from him,

where they took Orbital away from him.

I mean, you know what that reduced him to?

It was so hard to watch.

There's a part of me that's always held them responsible.

That holds Maddox responsible for his suicide.

What about Ferris?

You said that you told her you were calling the shots?

Will she accept that?

Yeah, I mean, all Ferris cares about

is not letting the Americans have more information than we have.

Will she turn over the Laghari files?

Yeah.

Yeah, she will.

A new event just came in.

Near Oceanside, Washington State.

Atmospheric inconsistencies.

What happened?

It's okay. It's okay, Dad.

We almost hit a deer.

Just came out of nowhere.

Good driving.

Although, you do tend to drive a little fast for my taste.

Haste is a signifier of disorganization.

I will take note of that. Thank you, George.

You're welcome.

Stay here.

Did Bryan tell you about this man, Garcia?

Yeah. He said he was some scientist at Orbital,

and he was injured in a Debris event.

Bryan said you know him.

Yes, I do.

Bryan.

Garcia.

Hey, man.

Hey.

You look healthy. You're still taking the injections?

Yeah, when they send them to me.

Finola, this is Garcia.

Hi.

Nice to meet you.

Hello, Gary.

George.

Draw your list. If there's anything I don't have,

I know where to find it without raising any alarms.

We have to go to Washington State on a case now.

It's not too far. I wish we didn't have to,

but we have to keep things just moving as normal.

Maddox can not suspect that anything's wrong.

Are you gonna be okay?

I'll be perfectly fine.

Let's get to work.

The latest SAT scans have come in,

I don't see any change.

We should be getting close.

It's just up ahead on the left.

This is it.

I love the sea.

You getting anything?

Yeah.

It's faint, but it's definitely here.

Let's go check if they saw anything come down.

Hey, there. Agent Beneventi, this is Agent Jones.

Your parents home?

No. No, they're not.

Do you know when they'll be back?

Come on in.

- It's okay. They're traveling. - Who are?

My parents, they're traveling.

Won't be back until the end of the month.

Take a seat.

- What's your name? - Shelby.

We're, um...

We're here in Oceanside to investigate pieces of a crashed military aircraft.

You're part of a recovery effort?

That's right. Have you seen anything or heard anything?

Is that your little brother?

Apparently. His name's Steven.

Have you seen anything fall from the sky

or heard anything like that, past few days?

Yeah. Yeah, I have.

Found what you're looking for, actually.

It's alloy wreckage.

I found it with my sister Kathleen when we were diving.

I know that's part of a crashed alien ship.

How do you know that?

We found it, examined it,

went in it.

It transported us two days into the past.

At first, it was amazing.

We did it again. We kept doing it,

till one time I came back and my sister was gone.

It's like she was never born.

And now it's worse.

Now every time I go out there,

I don't know what version of reality

is waiting for me when I get back here.

Sometimes I have other siblings,

other times I'm alone,

but Kathleen never comes back.

How far out to sea is it?

I'm going to keep using it,

till it resets properly and I get my sister back.

I don't know what you think you know,

but that's just not gonna happen.

Yeah. Yeah, you've said that before.

Not the last time you were here, but the time before that.

You see, every time you come here,

you get my story and call your father George.

He's in Oregon. He's been helping me figure this out.

Each time, I learn a little bit more.

My, uh...

my father's been helping you?

Yeah. At first, he thought it was time travel,

but that didn't make sense because we'd only jump back a couple days,

and my sister was born 20 years ago,

yet somehow she was erased.

George already determined it's not just time travel.

He said the Debris is allowing me

to pluck out cards from the deck of reality.

He already warned us, if I don't get back to my reality,

that the fabric of the universe is going to degrade at an increasing rate.

I need you to call him again, if you want to save the world.

Have any questions?

That's remarkable.

It's like you're drifting through a kaleidoscope of timelines.

The last thing you told me to try was to do the jump

at the exact time as I did the last one with my sister.

Yes. That sounds like something I would say.

What happened?

Well, I tried it at exactly 4:03 P.M., but it didn't work,

I still keep coming up in a reality without her.

Perhaps, it's failing because the reset needs

to happen at the precise time

that you initially triggered the Debris,

not just 4:03 P.M.,

but 4:03 and 22.983 seconds.

Yeah, but of course,

if that's the case, you could be doing this,

for a lifetime and-- and never succeed.

I can't accept that.

You said so yourself, I have to fix this.

There has to be something I can do.

We have to keep trying.

May I ask, did you see any colors

- when you triggered the Debris? - I don't know.

It's important that you try to remember.

It may help us deduce what's happening.

Finola? There some concepts that I would like to run by you.

Can we speak privately?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm here.
