Ryn? Are you all right?
No baby.
We can't just take Ryn to a fertility clinic.
Beth-- her people-- they have their own doctors.
This isn't proof of anything.
You want to know what real evidence would be?
Her.
Miles out to sea, and there aren't any other boats around.
Trauma sometimes, twisting things in our brains.
Yeah. Woman under the water doesn't make any sense.
We're so glad you're here.
This is Leena, our doctor.
The procedure went exceptionally well.
And Ryn?
She's gone. No! No!
Ry! Don't take her! Ry!
You wanted evidence, right?
I got it.
Come on, come on!
We're losing him. Can you go any faster?
Come on! I'm trying!
There's a shortcut! Where? Where?!
Up ahead! There! Go straight!
You see him? No, not yet.
The main road's coming up ahead!
There!
I see him, I see him!
Stop! Stop!
Come on.
We gotta get down there.

Ben!
Ryn? Ryn? Where is she?
She's okay.
She got away.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that--
take her.
You saved my life.
Thank you.
♪ It was a great blue wave ♪
♪ Took me in ♪
Where is he now?
Probably back in Seattle.
And you think he'll keep the secret?
Ben saved his life.
He was grateful for that,
and we think he'll stay quiet.
We hope.
But at the moment, I'm more worried
about the damage he did.
Ryn could have been pregnant right now.
Because we lost time,
those embryos are no longer viable.
Maybe we try again another time.
To make baby with science.
Hey, turn that up.
That all sounds pretty far-fetched.
Yeah, well,
sometimes truth is stranger than fiction, right?
I saw one. Firsthand.
And there are others.
Oh, my God. What is he doing?
Look, all I can say is
play the footage.
It's been authenticated.
What is going on?!
Oh, my goodness!
This is bad. This is bad.
These are highly evolved apex predators.
They're dangerous.
That's her. Come on.
That's the one in the video!
You gotta get out of here.
Go! It's the same one!
That's the one! Follow her! Follow her!
Get in!
Was that real?!
What are you?!
Stay back! Are you real?!
Let's go!
Everybody back! Back!
Go, Ben! Just go! Get out!
Let 'em through!
Hey, come on! Let 'em out!
Let 'em through!
Out of the way! Just go!
Get out! Go, go!
Just drive!
What are we gonna do?
Well, she-- She can't stay here.
We've got to get her out of town!
Sorry. Only residents are being admitted.
Bristol Cove, Washington,
where two of the creatures
were caught off the coast 15 days ago,
remains under martial law
after groups of tourists, animal activists,
and poachers descended on the town.
Vandalism and some violence were reported
before order was restored.
Roads into the town have been sealed off.
No one but permanent residents are being admitted.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Government continues to install
a network of offshore sonic cannons.
The expectation being that these devices,
originally developed for oil exploration,
may force more of the creatures from the water.
There are continued reports out of Malaysia
claiming they have obtained a creature of their own,
with sources alleging it is being held
in a state-run facility where it will be studied
and put on display to an eager public.
And, around the globe,
citizens are now bitterly divided
over the treatment of this newfound species.
Canada, the latest in a growing list of nations
to offer asylum and protection.
We will welcome them, provide a safe haven for them,
and ultimately, if they so desire,
a path to citizenship in our country.
Additionally, the U.S. military
has released newly obtained footage
found in a small marine research facility
inside Bristol Cove.
A local marine biologist and his staff,
presumably aware of the existence of the marine creatures,
are being pursued for questioning.
Who is it?
It's Ben.
Ben. Ohh!
You all right?
Ryn? And Maddie?
Still in the cave. Oh!
She's gonna have to go back soon.
She can't stay out of the water forever.
Yeah.
Look, you gotta get out of here.
It's not safe.
Well, maybe things will calm down
now that they're keeping everyone out.
The town's under martial law, Helen.
They can change the rules any time they want.
It's only gonna get worse.
You need to come with us.
Where?
Canada. Oh, you heard.
Yeah, on the radio.
It's the best chance we got.
I heard rumors that a blood test is being developed
to identify our kind.
Helen, you need to take care of yourself.
You need my help.
I just need to get across the border.
What can I do?
If you can get us a car,
drive it out of town past the checkpoint,
we can get as close as we can,
then cross on foot.
That's pretty rough country.
There's a place I know.
One summer, my dad and I went backpacking up there,
accidentally crossed the border.
It's about a 40 mile hike.
I'll pack my car.
Good. Thank you.
Meet us at the gas station by Route 6.
Are you sure about this?
They want Ryn.
You know what they'll do to her if they find her.
Ben?
Hey, Dad. Thank God.
Where the hell you been?
Your mother's out of her mind.
I'm gonna let her know you're--
Dad, don't
I can't stay.
Tell Mom I'm okay, will you?
You've been with her? Ryn.
And Maddie, right?
Okay, I'm gonna let Dale know,
'cause he's worried sick.
I'm sorry, okay?
I have to go.
You got a plan?
We're leaving. Crossing the border.
You need to stop and think.
Dad. Don't.
You need money.
That's why you came, right?
They know you're helping her, you know?
They're looking for you.
I know. All right. Go on.
Be careful.
Thank you.
Tell Mom.
Tell her I... I will.
That's it.
Ryn!
Be careful.
We don't want anyone to see you.
Come on.
The machines.
They are getting closer.
I know. Come.
Help me pack.
Calvin's been letting me keep this stuff here.
It freaks my mom out having it in the house, so...
Where is he? Oh, you know,
he's out on the water, looking for a payday.
You know they're offering a hundred million for one--
Um, anyway, every deckhand in town's on a feeding frenzy, so...
The sooner we get away from the coast, the safer we'll be.
Yeah, that's for sure.
Where exactly you guys going?
You still have the lure?
Um, nah, it's just--
It was in the closet.
You're helping them.
We got enough trouble with the military after them, Xan.
They're mercenaries, pirates.
Did you hear what I just said?
I mean, how much they're offering?
Go, go, go!
Okay, okay!
Clear!
Area clear.
This area's secure!
Ben!
Oh, my God.
You okay?
No Helen? No.
Down, down, down!
We're gonna have to get out of here.
We can't wait for her any longer.
Follow my lead.
Hey. We're gonna need to buy your car.
What?
We're gonna need to buy your car.
It's not for sale.
Take it.
Here.
Oh, my God.
Where you headed, ma'am?
Camping trip.
Step out of the vehicle, please.
Last I checked,
residents were still allowed to come and go.
Am I wrong about that?
Stand right there, please.
Hold out your hand, please, ma'am.
Excuse me?
I said hold out your hand.
What is this?
Let's go.
Move!
What do you think you're doing?
This is still the United States of America.
Move.
You two may be the biggest bullshitters
in this whole bullshit town.
It's not bull, Silas.
We were on that boat when the very first one was caught.
Hell, we're the ones that caught her.
That's what started this whole thing.
So you say.
But it's been three weeks
since the military caught those other two,
and I don't see you getting another.
We're working on it.
Sure as hell hope so.
'Cause I got a buyer breathing down my neck.
Oh, yeah?
Who is it?
U.S. Government? Russia? China?
Not that it's any of your business,
but it's a private client.
Yeah, I read that every pharmaceutical company
in the world was after one of these things.
Never mind who it is.
Just quit blowing smoke up my ass and do your job.
Don't worry about it.
We have a plan.
You got 24 hours.
Otherwise, I'm moving on.
You doing okay?
Yes.
We need to ditch the car soon,
go on foot.
Following local traffic.
Northbound on Route 5, expect a bit of a bottleneck
as you approach the Canadian border.
Several border points have been closed
due to a security breach further south.
No details have been released. -
We don't know what kind of threat they pose.
These things aren't human.
They're an invading force,
and that's how we should treat them.
Step forward.
Step forward and remove all belongings.
Remove all belongings.
Where are you from?
Step forward. You! No talking.
Possessions.
Step forward and remove all belongings.
Open your mouth.
No talking.
Ohh!
All prisoners step forward.
Remove your clothing.
Step forward and remove all belongings.
Prisoners, keep moving.
Remove all belongings.
Do I know you?
Nope.
What do I owe you?
112.76
Keep the change.
We gotta get out of here.
We've got a problem.
It's been two months.
She's never gone this long before.
Hang on, Ry.
We'll figure something out.
Got it?
You expect me to believe that metal piece of crap's
gonna catch us a mermaid?
Well, you don't have to believe it.
You're gonna see it with your own eyes.
Actually, they're gonna hear it with their own ears.
What the hell?
All right?
One, two, three.
Let's go, let's go.
Maybe we go back.
I go in water, and we start again.
We can't, Ryn.
The whole coast down there is being patrolled.
They got 20 sonic cannons blasting the water.
Our only hope is to get you across the border.
There's an estuary near Vancouver,
a safe place, protected.
We're only about an hour away from the trailhead.
Then we walk?
We'll help you. That's what we'll do.
Just hang on.
Yes.
Hang on.
Hey. I'm seeing something down there.
Get those tranq guns.
Whoa, whoa. You can't send them down there.
Are you nuts? She's gonna smoke them.
They know what they're dealing with.
No, they don't.
Hey, come on! We haven't go all day!
In the water! Let's go!
Come on, what are you waiting for?
Be careful.
Give it up. Help him up, help him up.
Pull!
Watch the tail.
Come on.
That's a whole lot of money in your hands.
The state park entrance should be just around this bend.
You doing okay?
Okay. Yes.
Shit.
They knew exactly where we'd be,
right where we were planning to hike in.
Someone tipped them off.
There's only one person it could be.
Your dad?
The Earth's covered in ocean, and we gotta catch this one.
What are the chances?
It's not a chance, Calvin.
She heard her mother's voice.
It's our fault she got caught.
What?! She tried to kill you, man.
You think if she'd done it, she would have felt bad?
Probably not. Definitely not.
She's the reason you lost your boat in the first place.
We sell her, we're set for life.
You know what I call that?
Justice.
We'll have to hike from here.
You think we can get around the checkpoint?
No choice. We'll lay low until the sun goes down,
find another place to cross.
Think you can make it?
Yes.
Come on.
I haven't, uh, seen your sister Beth.
Did she get out before, uh,
they found you?
No, we were all together when they came
to the ranch.
When we first got here,
she and a few others tried to escape.
She was shot.
I'm so sorry.
I recognize that girl from John's ranch.
Yeah, that's Meredith.
She's been here for a couple of weeks.
Where are they taking her?
Tracking device.
They started implanting them after Beth was killed.
Oh, my God.
Look.
Hello?
We'll stay here till dark.
This makes no sense.
I mean, why are we here?
Where the hell are we?
This ain't no research facility.
Oh, yeah, ya think?
We just gotta get paid
and get outta here.
Ben?
Stay down.
Don't move.
Ben's father is here.
And mine.
You need to tell your men to stand down.
My daughter is in there.
This wasn't the plan.
You know damn well
that a hostage situation has to be negotiated.
This is not a hostage situation.
This is three armed fugitives.
I'll go in there and talk to him.
We could end this peacefully.
All right, you have five minutes.
Ben?
I'm coming in.
I'm alone.
Get down.
Stay down.
Get in here.
What did you do?
Ben,
I did it for you. Bullshit.
That's bullshit.
Ben, you need to talk to these guys.
Okay? It's not too late.
You can make a deal.
A deal? Yeah.
What, I give her up and save myself?
Is that the idea?
Yeah. That's what I thought.
What did they do to you?
What happened?
They've been using us for tests.
What kind of tests?
To see how fast we can heal.
Ohh.
You caused this.
All of it. What are you talking about?
You shared our secret with the humans.
They never would've found out about us,
and none of this would have happened.
I only told people I knew we could trust.
A Pownall.
The Pownalls are not the problem here.
Ah, of course.
You're one of them.
What did I expect?
You should be ashamed of yourself,
fighting with me, your own kind.
Here? Now?
Don't move.
I can get them to promise they won't harm her.
Why would I believe one word you say to me ever again?
Huh?
Ben, I did it for you, to keep you safe.
To keep me safe? Yeah, to keep you safe.
You were never gonna make it out of here alive.
That is not true.
We were so close.
We could've made it.
Ben, you're not thinking straight.
You're gonna help us get out.
No! Ben!
It's our only chance.
This is not a good idea, Ben.
Ben, they'll kill you. Move.
They'll kill you all.
Now! Move. Oh, jeez.
There's more where that came from.
Nice.
Ladies and gentlemen,
please turn your attention to the viewing window,
as I unveil my latest acquisition.
Ooh.
What do you think they're gonna do to her?
No idea.
Behind me.
Move.
Prepare to engage!
Move! Stay close.
Get back!
Stay behind me. Wait!
Maddie, stop!
Surrender, please!
Don't come any closer!
Ooh!
No! Maddie!
No! Now!
No! Maddie!
Maddie! Get off me!
Maddie! Maddie!
Mads. Ryn!
Ryn, run!
Maddie! No, Maddie! Aah!
Maddie!
Hang on. Hang in there, Mads.
Medic! Medic!
Maddie! Maddie! Maddie!
Keep the pressure here.
Maddie! No!
Maddie! Maddie!
Aah!
No!
You're bleeding bad. Don't leave.
No!
Mads?
Maddie!
Laddie!

"Reporter dies in watery grave."
Grave. Like sister.
Yes.
"Sutton appears to have lost control of his vehicle
on a remote coastal road."
They're saying it was an accident.
Why did he take me?
He wanted to share you with the rest of the world.
That would have been bad.
No more.
He is dead now.
You did everything you could.
Dale, you got a sec?
Oh, Ted. Come in.
I wonder if you could
just, uh, do me a little favor.
Well, seems like I owe you one.
Susan told me you offered her a job.
We could use the help.
Roberta's gone down to part-time.
So what can I do for you?
Well, um,
I'm looking for the, uh, Coast Guard report
from the night of Elaine's accident.
Figured you probably have an "in" down there.
That's a long time ago.
Ten years.
Is that why you went to see Susan?
Yeah. Certain things from that night,
just, uh, things I thought I'd forgotten,
keep popping into my head.
You sure you want to dredge all that up again?
Well, just some unanswered questions.
Things I can't explain.
I really just want to try to remember exactly what happened.
Yeah, sure.
I can look into that.
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Oh, Ted.
You know, some things are better left in the past.
Yeah.
Hey! Hey!
What do ya think?
It's pretty sweet, right?
This is my new gig.
Isn't this, uh, Eddie Coburt's old boat?
Uh, no, not old. Pre-owned.
What'd this thing cost you?
Didn't cost him a cent.
Oh, I see. You bought it.
All those extra shifts.
I've been saving my tips.
What are you gonna do with it?
Gonna start a business, bruh.
Janine is the owner, and I'm running it.
Okay, so you realize this...
this isn't a fishing boat, right?
We're gonna give tours.
Excursions.
I mean, this is the mermaid capital of the world, right?
Huh?
You two, you are, uh, perfect for each other.
I'm sorry for what happened,
but he brought it on himself,
and it's because of him
that Ryn couldn't have that embryo implanted.
No baby for me.
Maybe we try again.
Yes, maybe.
When the time is right.
