Oh sorry, I forget not to joke with you like that.

I’ll never understand why you find that funny.
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDU70M5dZt
It's an acquired sense of humor so I hope you never do.

JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDAEIROv1G
How have you been?
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46u5S9ce8e
The fuck happened to your accent?
Alexis snickers.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5kU88UmNH
Bruh.
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjaLI7snnh
You leave New York for three years and you go and lose the accent.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡex43cofLEd
Alexis lost her Jersey accent!
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNBbsoGBlJ

ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOV09xCYewR
What are you looking at?
Jason looks at Alexis.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3s4a5Hmga

I don’t know. I was driving, everything was fine, next thing I know my left front wheel comes off.
ADAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzgKmk8F4c
Randomly?
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8aqqHuqlM
Yeah.
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS11Gz1r28P

You know what I find weird.

ADAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSA89VmK8j
Yeah. What?
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGffNaH8SS
The Genome Soldier Project. It’s not on any official task force record. Think you can help?

ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRvrrkatxzh

ADAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EX5yThgPi
No. I heard he’s on vacation.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLqKcgkkw8
Alexis makes a face.
ADAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYvnedUh0K
What?
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2S0pk30R6
Something isn’t adding up. Montoya wouldn’t just go on vacation without telling us, especially not in the middle of a cartel trying to take over the city.
ADAM
So what do you think happened?
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAcJFBnBO8
I don’t know, but we need to find out.

Well, I guess we’re taking my car now. Where are you staying Ellen?
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpW6d78VM0Y
With my mom. I don’t want to wake up in the middle of the night hearing weird noises coming from-

Better than from when you guys left.
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IiIDrghqI
Really?
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtHv8iJ0wc
Yeah, all that stuff you did back then really had an impact. Do you guys miss it?
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0b0GBFviHv
Yeah, sometimes. But I prefer how quiet Deacon is compared to New York. I mean, until recently, that is. Gave me flashbacks to New York.
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh84mqnqS1Z
What about you Alexis?
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFyYVDBvmV
It’s a mixed bag. I grew up there but a lot happened too. I actually didn’t want to leave New York, not after everything that happened so it’s nice to hear that it’s doing well.
A GT V8 Mustang pulls up next to them. A 20-year-old male is in the driver's seat. He looks at Ellen and revs the engine.

Bitch! I was waiting for that. How long were you waiting to do that?
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3S960FPLE
About three years.
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nFWAmwLgJ
Wow. Well, they do say elephants never forget so.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3pkOvcqwW
What the- I- Uh- You- Fuck you.
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB710X6NDvh
That’s what I thought.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluaIY0jCVp
No, I’m the older brother. I’m supposed to be bullying you.
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuruWc43es
Those childhood years are backfiring on you now, aren't they?
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ94ne1SGML

JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAz0Ty2v0L
Really, like what?
WORKER151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSuOiJKzxi
The other day, I was walking down Main Street when a strong gust of wind just blew through. It was so random because it was so calm then all of a sudden, bam.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtwZjUax4P
That’s weird, I’ve never had that happen to me.
WORKER151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0zDoeT31t
Yeah, it was crazy.

Don’t tell me you have forgotten because I haven’t forgotten you! I have been searching for you for a long, long time.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOImGAlE1ot
What?
THE ORPHIC151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNdB0OFDsU
This body, mangled, burned, by your hand.
The Orphic levitates.

Time to return the favor.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwJiNsCNsY
No way.
Jason and The Orphic fight. Jason throws punches at The Orphic. The Orphic blocks them all. Jason goes for a spinning kick.

INTERCUT ALEXIS AND ADAM
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB9YYSWVzK
I think, it sounds similar to what’s on the file. What else is on it?

Uh, let’s see.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXn2In9Up7n
(reading)151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1jJHfezd2
The search for the next generation of soldiers is near, in the light of the DeSantos cartel’s recent surge in attacks, we are ready to commence the next phase in our operation. Galen and Mara Walker have volunteered to be one of the first in line.151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5b0c2l6xd

ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTppdBcaArX
Yeah. What else does it say?
ADAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRZlanKJBy
That’s it. There’s no update, at least not on here.
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fVYhIHYza
So what happened with the project, and why is it coming up all of a sudden?
ADAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8B40HbzJdW
I don’t know. This is the first time I’m hearing about it. What do you think?
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HIdwewLwG
I don’t know.
Beat.
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5edDuQ2ZN9
I think I’m going to have to make a call.

Don’t act like you haven’t said worse. Seriously though, what’s up?
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsW1h8shdZ
Have you heard about the energy blast that happened here a while back?
ABRAHAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwawNqiTeOI
Uh yeah, I might’ve.
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dp8rveBF5
So after a bit of off-the-cuff digging, something called The Genome Soldier Project came up.
Abraham stops walking.
ABRAHAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRLsFjZXkS
What did you say?
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1Fyajdb1O
Genome Soldier Project. You know what that is?
ABRAHAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo55Cei0mFg
Vaguely. It was a CIA led operation, my parents were one of the first ones to volunteer for it.
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1rmdfrufO
And what happened?
ABRAHAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCVyUtdlMc
It worked, they were faster, stronger, more resilient. Super soldiers. But it got canceled because the syndicate found out about it, and the CIA didn’t want to risk the project getting into their hands. What exactly happened over there?
Beat.
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48spaPBnip
We got the file from Helix Genetics. A witness that was there said, Javier Madrazo activated a sphere that caused the blast. Would you know anything about a sphere?
ABRAHAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8P2hnMtio
No. My parents said it involved gene therapy and nano machines.
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTLQEN7z1m
So if this is The Genome Soldier Project, it’s a new version of it.
ABRAHAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeJtiw3HXH
And you said Helix Genetics did this? Why?
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7p3zf3RgL
I don’t know yet. That’s what we’re still trying to figure out.

I am The Orphic. This city, this world, is mine!
He raises his hand and it glows red. He’s about to strike when more 212 operators fire at The Orphic. Jason gets away.
Reeves is hiding behind cover. He looks over to see The Orphic glow red and release a large blast. He goes back underneath the cover.
The cover is eviscerated, knocking Reeves down. When Reeves looks up The Orphic is gone.
Alexis runs to Adam and Ricky.

Are you guys okay?
Ricky is on the floor groveling in pain. He’s grabbing his shoulder cap.
ADAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KqvL8DU08
Ricky got hit.
Alexis checks Ricky’s shoulder cap. There’s a gnarly gash.

Oh fuck.
ADAM151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKr9IeJQij6
What the hell was that?
ALEXIS151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjQAJXuPd2
I don’t know.
Not too far, Jason collapses. He touches his shoulder.

Ellen!
Jason blacks out.

INT. JASON’S BUNKER - MORNING
Jason wakes up. His vision is blurry. He’s looking at the roof. He looks around and sees a blurry figure.
It gets up and walks toward him. Jason’s vision clears. It’s Ellen. Jason sits up. He doesn’t have his mask on.
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1eDgfXNLX
Thank God you’re awake.

How long was I out for? What happened?
Ellen turns on a TV. Isabella Valdez is on the TV. Jason sits up.

Tragedy be-felled Nicholas Reeves’ address to the city last night when a mysterious man who calls himself The Orphic, interrupted the speech killing at least seven Task Force 212 operators and fourteen people who were in attendance and injuring many more.
The TV shows the footage of The Orphic.

The motivation of The Orphic is unclear but what is clear is that he’s not here in peace. In other news the rumors of a vigilante operating in the shadows has been seemingly confirmed as showcased by The Orphic last night. The Raven, a victim in The Orphic’s attack. Who is this Raven and why is he doing this? But more importantly, is he still alive or not.
Ellen turns off the TV. She looks at Jason.
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltsYBJx7kH
The Raven, huh?
Jason sits up.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKojWBltVig
I’ve never called myself that. I don’t know where The Orphic got that from.
ELLEN151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHYSBGEpaG
What happened out there, Jason? One second you’re fine, the next I hear you getting beat up and calling for help.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJThkcN2SJ
I lost again. I couldn’t beat him.
Jason stands up and walks.
JASON151Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1n1upgaf4Y
All that training, practicing, learning, and I could barely touch him, I’m not good enough to beat The Orphic. But this city is in danger so I can’t stop, I won’t stop until he’s dead.
