JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmtUMnYRHG
How have you been?
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2OuaGw6soX
The fuck happened to your accent?
Alexis snickers.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtwYPYVMis
Bruh.
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHkLuaRlc6
You leave New York for three years and you go and lose the accent.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazQtzEYz0e
Alexis lost her Jersey accent!
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cL5twjPNh

ADAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18GJcJg6oD
Randomly?
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJRVueW6ZZ
Yeah.

ADAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohzyL7u9Fz
No. I heard he’s on vacation.164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqdHZlYiJ0
Alexis makes a face.
ADAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEXur1KCm6
What?
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqIV6JvwQm
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?
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5rUCJnQbO
I don’t know, but we need to find out.

Well, I guess we’re taking my car now. Where are you staying Ellen?
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1HvQGjgza
With my mom. I don’t want to wake up in the middle of the night hearing weird noises coming from-

JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujfmmtYwU5

Better than from when you guys left.
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqV8uNDgQnc
Really?
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODkAXMdV95
Yeah, all that stuff you did back then really had an impact. Do you guys miss it?
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJ0y7rUzc6
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.
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaE2Akh7hdo
What about you Alexis?
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jcNf2gZ5b
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?
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFU5qIebSn
About three years.
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBptiqdfLY
Wow. Well, they do say elephants never forget so.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5IFCboLfL
What the- I- Uh- You- Fuck you.
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7l7iY22YOP
That’s what I thought.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZo8Bo1SiB
No, I’m the older brother. I’m supposed to be bullying you.
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqh10A4Slm
Those childhood years are backfiring on you now, aren't they?
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWdzl8x7wc

JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1vKdKPnif
Really, like what?
WORKER164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPEvthl8RX
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.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsCpSB3SpJ
That’s weird, I’ve never had that happen to me.
WORKER164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8hvsf9LGY
Yeah, it was crazy.

JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4WdEdHKMy
You know my name? How?
The Orphic starts walking toward Jason.
THE ORPHIC164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuJAti4eOy
Don’t tell me you have forgotten because I haven’t forgotten you! I have been searching for you for a long, long time.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDa3CpQLOE2
What?
THE ORPHIC164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrEZCVHD7Q
This body, mangled, burned, by your hand.
The Orphic levitates.
THE ORPHIC164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO3rvfNELC
Time to return the favor.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpjfm5Etrf
No way.
Jason and The Orphic fight. Jason throws punches at The Orphic. The Orphic blocks them all. Jason goes for a spinning kick.
The Orphic blocks it. Jason backs up. He charges at The Orphic. The Orphic is gone. Jason looks around.

INTERCUT ALEXIS AND ADAM
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TAHD8iWY6
I think, it sounds similar to what’s on the file. What else is on it?

Uh, let’s see.164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWlWTFm13p
(reading)164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzeTdqj3e1
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.164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsti7Dn389Z

ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6yd9tTrFV
Yeah. What else does it say?
ADAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq7nq0cFsB
That’s it. There’s no update, at least not on here.
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbaUVZEDzn
So what happened with the project, and why is it coming up all of a sudden?
ADAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalhRdAUFMc
I don’t know. This is the first time I’m hearing about it. What do you think?
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTv7VZaO352
I don’t know.
Beat.
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9q5A5usFdH
I think I’m going to have to make a call.

ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0yxjEEObS
Hey, rude.

ABRAHAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb2kihsSG5
Don’t act like you haven’t said worse. Seriously though, what’s up?
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5Cwm6UpCR
Have you heard about the energy blast that happened here a while back?
ABRAHAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfkzC8xSP5
Uh yeah, I might’ve.
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuwePmO6ZgX
So after a bit of off-the-cuff digging, something called The Genome Soldier Project came up.
Abraham stops walking.
ABRAHAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfL7lnG84Vg
What did you say?
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPmRGNtz8H
Genome Soldier Project. You know what that is?
ABRAHAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNqQI40MKc
Vaguely. It was a CIA led operation, my parents were one of the first ones to volunteer for it.
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0719fPJXc
And what happened?
ABRAHAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcR9f3N6g0
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.
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0c76pzXdF
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?
ABRAHAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBsNCLsMiy
No. My parents said it involved gene therapy and nano machines.
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvkHC89il3
So if this is The Genome Soldier Project, it’s a new version of it.
ABRAHAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02gX6KPlqW
And you said Helix Genetics did this? Why?
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhseZ21Hh2
I don’t know yet. That’s what we’re still trying to figure out.

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.
ADAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLP5QQH1vnX
Ricky got hit.
Alexis checks Ricky’s shoulder cap. There’s a gnarly gash.

Oh fuck.
ADAM164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RYntSUovG
What the hell was that?
ALEXIS164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSmTYQV1pH
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.
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DSXibzLoc
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.

The Raven, huh?
Jason sits up.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfeyCoTUOpB
I’ve never called myself that. I don’t know where The Orphic got that from.
ELLEN164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZfru8sWul
What happened out there, Jason? One second you’re fine, the next I hear you getting beat up and calling for help.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GKvcBTf4v
I lost again. I couldn’t beat him.
Jason stands up and walks.
JASON164Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAebg6PDGO9
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.
