I’ll never understand why you find that funny.
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZKgYg0pEb
It's an acquired sense of humor so I hope you never do.

How have you been?
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsgk3Se52G
The fuck happened to your accent?
Alexis snickers.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVC8zWJjfu6
Bruh.
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdxMd89Kan
You leave New York for three years and you go and lose the accent.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoLSDiOMYc
Alexis lost her Jersey accent!
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQJIJedxX6

A loud BANG is heard. The car leans down on the front left side. It makes a scraping sound. It comes to a halt.

What did you hit?
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr22U9At1iy
Nothing. There wasn’t anything.

Jason looks at Alexis.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZR7mD1WtHE

I don’t know. I was driving, everything was fine, next thing I know my left front wheel comes off.
ADAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Cjln4cl3f
Randomly?

ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQsXjdOesA

ADAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Cy86S9lA0
No. I heard he’s on vacation.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiZEPhz6NH
Alexis makes a face.
ADAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzoStfOnz5
What?
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LP2HzIVwi
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?
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIKiiNVnh7
I don’t know, but we need to find out.

Well, I guess we’re taking my car now. Where are you staying Ellen?
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68vC3TSNVZ

JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4vgfizSln

Better than from when you guys left.
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdE3NWViajr
Really?
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHrcTvzH8t
Yeah, all that stuff you did back then really had an impact. Do you guys miss it?
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCL0sKHgaJ
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.
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lsy7weP4F
What about you Alexis?
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zRxXoTbZC
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?
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRixlM5d45
About three years.
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5MVjOHWS1
Wow. Well, they do say elephants never forget so.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE72CcL6MjQ
What the- I- Uh- You- Fuck you.
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtymxUoo8d
That’s what I thought.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFATqZfOig5
No, I’m the older brother. I’m supposed to be bullying you.
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaqFwK2Ts4
Those childhood years are backfiring on you now, aren't they?
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRvVcdTgmZ

JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ6bRmKFGD
Really, like what?
WORKER187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThVE5tSK70
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.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzjgWHcwO6
That’s weird, I’ve never had that happen to me.
WORKER187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEthlowAyQm
Yeah, it was crazy.

Old wounds die hard. Jason.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNt8wZvPcVF
You know my name? How?
The Orphic starts walking toward Jason.
THE ORPHIC187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7Wbr7KnRh
Don’t tell me you have forgotten because I haven’t forgotten you! I have been searching for you for a long, long time.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtkQoMoxgs
What?
THE ORPHIC187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9nX2mhjKo
This body, mangled, burned, by your hand.
The Orphic levitates.
THE ORPHIC187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5whYpOzjjG
Time to return the favor.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66elNnVkvO
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
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ5fcHWtUpC
I think, it sounds similar to what’s on the file. What else is on it?

Uh, let’s see.187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICiYYTlm4k

ADAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1misac5Tk
That’s it. There’s no update, at least not on here.
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0KDXDpyDLD
So what happened with the project, and why is it coming up all of a sudden?
ADAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTW3YNAYeR
I don’t know. This is the first time I’m hearing about it. What do you think?
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2yHB1GezA
I don’t know.
Beat.
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn07dS2QC3V
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?
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nMhc7N0B4
Have you heard about the energy blast that happened here a while back?
ABRAHAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KebiilJx3
Uh yeah, I might’ve.
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4nh0G4eRo
So after a bit of off-the-cuff digging, something called The Genome Soldier Project came up.
Abraham stops walking.
ABRAHAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxnxD1FZIk
What did you say?
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkMXD7qM5S
Genome Soldier Project. You know what that is?
ABRAHAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwY8xeZlMoN
Vaguely. It was a CIA led operation, my parents were one of the first ones to volunteer for it.
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMKVPeLK7S
And what happened?
ABRAHAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9JtGtuGMK
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.
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYP6JtllSq
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?
ABRAHAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLkdxe8BkF
No. My parents said it involved gene therapy and nano machines.
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ69uMsKmnv
So if this is The Genome Soldier Project, it’s a new version of it.
ABRAHAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9O49ZexRDi
And you said Helix Genetics did this? Why?
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv0PSumWp8
I don’t know yet. That’s what we’re still trying to figure out.

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.
ADAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXDmreXL99
Ricky got hit.
Alexis checks Ricky’s shoulder cap. There’s a gnarly gash.

Oh fuck.
ADAM187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLPodP71J0
What the hell was that?
ALEXIS187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wn9ZpW4wF
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.
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EACtliB5a
Thank God you’re awake.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XKaEArCFd
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.
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5EtWnULa0
The Raven, huh?
Jason sits up.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsn6Lk0eBS
I’ve never called myself that. I don’t know where The Orphic got that from.
ELLEN187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDYblk3lG9
What happened out there, Jason? One second you’re fine, the next I hear you getting beat up and calling for help.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6GloDeEzk
I lost again. I couldn’t beat him.
Jason stands up and walks.
JASON187Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBlNBl6Y91
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.
