Under the Dome

Four weeks ago,

an invisible dome crashed down on Chester's Mill,

cutting us off from the rest of the world.

The dome has tested our limits,

forcing each of us to confront our own personal demons--

rage...

grief...

fear.

My God.

Now, in order to survive,

we must battle our most dangerous adversary...

the enemy within.

Something's wrong with the dome, Joe.

It's calcifying.

I will get the dome down before then.

The transmitter from the radio station?

I can use it to amplify the tones for the device.

Is my daughter in there?

Stop!

The thing that-that came out of the cocoon,

I think that is your baby.

It's you.

You have your father's eyes.

I'm the queen now.

This isn't our home anymore.

Our freedom awaits us on the other side of the dome.

And I will guide you to it.

That's why I've called you here.

Christine's reign is over.

She fulfilled her purpose

to create a new, stronger queen.

Me.

I am here to lead you, our kinship,

out of the dome

to prevent the extinction of our species.

What once protected us

is now strangling us.

But before we can move on,

we must stop a dire threat

that will do anything to thwart us.

There is an enemy within.

No bullet holes.

The tubes are intact.

Transmitter's good to go.

All we need now is some power.

What's gonna happen when we get out of here?

How will we even go back to our old lives?

I don't know that we can.

The only thing that matters

is getting out of this dome.

Together.

Hey, Romeo and Juliet?

How about a little less standing around and more,

uh, getting us the hell out of here?

Once I get the solar panels on line,

I can power up the transmitter.

I still have to figure out a way

to keep it from overheating.

Otherwise...

We all die.

Should we really even be out here doing this?

Dr. Bloom deserves a burial.

We're not the kinship.

We bury our dead.

I know how hard this is on you.

She was your last hope of finding a cure for your daughter.

Come on, let's just go find Christine.

She's had some rest.

Maybe she'll remember something that could help us.

Fight's not over.

We got company. Run.

Go!

Damn it.

That's enough right there, Sam.

Put that silly thing away.

Eva?

Eva's dead and so is Christine.

Say hello to our new queen.

Hey, Dad.

Yeah, what is it?

You look so much like your mother.

You humans and this need for sentiment.

My name is Dawn.

And I am nothing like Eva or Christine.

Why did you kill Christine?

She served her function.

Very much like you have.

In the animal kingdom,

once a male of the species fathers its offspring,

its usefulness is over.

As is your so-called Resistance.

If that's true, why is she keeping any of us alive?

Leverage.

She took Joe.

She'll use our lives to...

force him to do whatever it is she wants.

On the plus side, she does have your eyes.

Where's Norrie and Jim?

In a jail cell with the rest of the Resistance.

And if you don't finish what you started,

I'll torture them all, starting with Norrie.

No, you won't.

You need me to bring down the dome,

and I need their help.

They're traitors.

They're my friends.

So if you don't want your reign as queen

to be a really short one, you're gonna let them go.

How do I know that you'll cooperate

after I release them?

Because humans and the kinship share one thing--

the need to survive.

I want to get out just as much as you,

but not without the others.

Fine.

But Big Jim and Julia stay locked up.

They've never been one of us and can't be trusted.

Just as long as you don't hurt them

before the dome comes down.

Very well.

But don't think you've won anything here.

You're still a part of the kinship.

I can feel it inside you.

And whether you want to admit it or not,

you'll always be one of us.

What do you think?

No, there's no way to win this one.

If we stop Dawn before the dome comes down,

then we all die.

If she brings the dome down,

then the kinship just escapes into the rest of the world.

Unless we kill her before she has a chance to escape.

And without her,

the rest of the kinship

they won't know what to do, where to go.

She's my daughter.

There's got to be some part of me in her

that can still be reasoned with.

She may be your daughter,

but she's nothing like you.

Kyle Lee.

A special kind of idiot who videotapes himself

throwing eggs at cars on my lot and posts it on the Internet.

I was younger then.

Yeah, well, you're still just as stupid.

I tell you what-- when I get out of here,

I'm gonna commit an act of mercy

and end your life.

Let them out, Kyle.

Do as he says.

Norrie, Hunter, Lily--

you're with me.

Barbie, the amethysts need to be

taken to Willow's Clearing, so you'll accompany me.

What about Jim and me?

You'll stay here.

Unharmed.

Hey, uh...

I need my dog.

Please?

He's the key to my heart.

You can't trust her.

There's nothing of you inside her.

I'll find out.

What if you're wrong?

If I'm wrong, then I'll...

then I'll kill her myself.

Christine's no longer one of us.

What happened to her?

Why do I feel different?

We have a new queen.

Where is she?

A new world is dawning

that many in the kinship will not live to see.

You will face challenges once the dome is down,

but you'll have my recordings to guide you.

And you'll have your instincts. Trust them.

Come in.

Barbie and the others have the amethysts.

They're ready to be moved.

Good.

I've proven myself.

Let me be there for you.

I have others to consider.

Junior?

He tried to drown the children of the kinship.

He's impulsive.

Let me be your mate.

The role of the Alpha must be earned.

Wait...

before we go,

there's something you need to know.

Chester's Mill is surrounded by the military.

Once the dome is gone, the army will flood in.

And you will be captured and experimented on

just like Christine was.

Christine never mentioned...

Because she didn't know.

She and Eva were the first ones cocooned.

But I know how to assure our freedom.
