-Previously on Tracker... -Hi. We're looking for Serena Jukic.
She used to work with our father years back.
We're just looking for information is all.
You're Ashton's boys.
Our mother said something happened that summer,
that he snapped.
Ashton was uneasy with the real-world application,
and then, they brought him a new batch of test subjects.
You were testing children.
When I tried to protect one of the test subjects--
kid named Danny Kellerman--
they took Danny away.
-I never saw him again. -Then we'll try to find him.
Lot of security. They're guarding something.
Here we go.
Hi, Danny.
My name's Colter Shaw.
Dr. Jukic sent me to find you.
-I can't leave. -(device beeping)
(panting)
* *
ANDERSON: The more you resist, the harder this is gonna be for you.
No. Please, I-I can be better, I swear.
-Please. -I've heard that before.
But here we are, Lola. Again.
But we can use this
as a learning experience.
(sobs softly)
Your friend Danny was the same when he was younger.
But he learned. A quick study.
They're coming for you.
What are you talking about?
Two men. You'll see.
No. No.
-Enough of this. -No, please. No, no, no.
(Lola panting rapidly)
(panting slows)
(alarm blaring in distance)
You shouldn't have done that, Danny.
-These people are dangerous. I'm trying to help you. -I can't leave
without Lola.
-Who's Lola? -She's my friend.
She's in trouble. They took her away.
Almost shot you in the face.
Whoa. Well, that would've been exciting.
This is...? Okay. Hi.
-We should roll. -We got to deal with this.
It's a panic alarm.
We're gonna have company.
We should go fast, then.
Listen, if you want us to help you,
you're gonna have to come with us, now.
-Stay by me. -DANNY: 'Kay.
(alarm blaring)
*
-(gunshot) -Stay back.
All right.
Here we go. Everybody get in.
DANNY: You need to take me to Lola
or I'm not going anywhere.
Please, you have to help me.
She's got no one else.
Who's Lola? She another kid in the program?
Yes, but she's different.
How is she different?
She can see things before they happen.
Oh, she's pre-cog.
Oh, yeah, uh, hyperawareness, aggressive déjà vu.
Whatever you want to call it, government's been trying
to crack that for decades.
Why'd they take her?
She doesn't want to do this anymore.
Please.
They're going to hurt her.
Where'd they take her?
They call it the quiet place.
It's where they take you when you don't want to do
-as you're told. -You been there?
Once. Long time ago.
I don't know where it is. I was blindfolded.
Look, if I could do a session, I might be able to locate her.
RUSSELL: A remote viewing session?
Yes, but I can't do it by myself.
I would need someone to guide me.
Let's get him to Dr. Jukic.
We can do that. We can take you to her.
She's not too far away.
Let's go. Come on.
Here we go.
* *
(grunts)
-All good? -Yeah, come on in.
My brother owns the dry cleaner's.
We'll be fine here for a while.
(Danny gasps)
Danny.
Dr. Jukic.
I tried looking for you, but they pushed me out.
I didn't know how far they went until it was too late.
I didn't know what they did to your parents.
I hope you can forgive me.
Did a long time ago.
Uh, we don't have a lot of time.
There's a missing girl. Lola.
She was in the same program as Danny.
I guess they moved her to a different facility already?
-The quiet place. -Uh, it's where they adjust
their behavior away from the other test subjects.
It's usually remote, guarded. I've never been there.
DANNY: I know I can find her,
if you'll guide me through a session.
-This work? -Yes.
All right. Well, let's go fast, 'cause after our little raid,
they're likely to move her again.
Then let's get started.
-Ah. -This is all I could find.
No, I just need them for the binaural beats
to encourage brain wave synchronicity.
(Dr. Jukic exhales)
I'm ready.
Okay, breathe. (exhales)
(exhales)
Feel the weight of your body against the chair.
Now let go.
Let your brain go wherever it wants.
It's dark.
There's a single spot of light,
-like a star. -Good.
Go towards the light.
Okay.
Can you remember what she was wearing?
Red plaid shirt.
Hold onto that,
and take it to the light.
Okay.
(Colter sighs)
(typing on phone)
(text whooshes)
Who you texting?
Uh, Reenie.
'Bout what?
You know, she's...
she worries about me, she's always checking in. You know.
"Miss you."
"Wish you were here."
But I mean, you know... you know that.
-I don't know. -No? She doesn't do that to you?
-No? No? -No.
Huh! That's weird.
How do you think it's going in there?
I guess we'll know when we know.
Yeah. If it even works.
It can work.
I mean, presuming he's not so messed up
and that you keep your negative vibes in check.
I'm not, you know, being negative, just...
-being realistic. -Yeah, being a little negative.
But don't worry, 'cause I'm doubling up
on the positive vibes.
So, he's just gonna come out and give us a location?
I mean, it depends on what he sees, you know?
Sometimes, it's, uh, an image or, like, a landmark, right,
then you cross-check that with the real world
and see what matches.
Yeah, if he sees anything at all.
How about this? Why don't you focus on,
uh, what we're gonna do once we rescue Lola.
Because they're not just gonna stop looking
for a-a loose asset. Not in my experience, anyway.
-I've got a plan. -What is that?
Look, w-why don't you just try to figure out
how to bring this whole thing to its knees?
Oh, no, I've got-- that's fine. I'm... We got that figured out.
-You got a plan? What is it? -Mm-hmm.
Well, I'm not gonna tell you.
Okay, I'll tell you.
So, here's the thing.
(sighs) If we're gonna shut this thing down
and we're gonna have a chance...
...we have to unalive the head of the snake.
-Chop it off. -Same thing. Yes.
I like that. It's clean, it's good.
Okay, but first, we gotta find the snake.
MILLER: There were two of them here.
Came in armed, knew what they were doing.
Took out a number of our men.
Colter and Russell Shaw.
Trained and capable.
Looks like one of them got you pretty good.
-MILLER: Yes, sir. -The target was Danny Kellerman?
Yes, sir. This is his room here.
You said Danny Kellerman hit the panic button.
-Why? -Unclear, sir.
Who's Lola?
Another test subject.
He was a mentor of sorts for her.
We pair them up.
Helps ease them into the program.
-Where is she now? -We moved her off-site
for recalibration shortly before the break-in.
-Why? -She was resistant
during the last training session.
It's protocol in extreme cases.
Off-site management.
Seen the security footage.
So, Danny calls for help,
then willingly leaves with these two men.
Idea why?
We're still in the early stages of assessing motive.
They're going after the girl.
Oh.
That makes sense.
Only shame in failure is if we don't learn from it.
Yes. Of course.
-(blade stabbing) -(gasps)
(grunts)
(body thuds)
(door opens)
How'd it go?
DR. JUKIC: I think we may have something
on where they're keeping Lola.
Yeah, just a couple of images,
but hopefully, you'll be able to get an exact location.
All right, well, let's have them and we'll start puzzling.
Randy, hey, I need your help with a location.
Talk to me. What am I looking for?
Some sort of power plant.
It's got a cell tower on it, near a water tower and a bridge.
All right, power plant, tower, bridge.
Got about 4,600 bridges in Idaho
-and 2,000 water towers, so... -Okay, well, hold on.
He said, um, said it was a truss bridge,
said the water tower was blue
and it was near a two-lane highway.
Check and see if Dorix Logistics is somewhere on that deed.
Okay. That narrows it down,
that narrows it down.
Okay. I got that exact combo
about a hundred miles north of you.
I've got a subdivision of Dorix listed on the lease.
All right, thanks, Randy. Send me the details.
-I appreciate you. -All right, go get 'em.
I mean, an old plant, middle of nowhere?
-Sounds like a quiet place to me, right? -(phone buzzes)
What do you got?
Um...
it's, uh, it's, uh, Reenie.
-Well, you're lying. -Am I?
-Uh-huh. You're doing that thing. -What thing?
The thing with your eyes that you do.
Blinking?
All right.
Remember the plan I was saying?
Find the snake and... (clicks tongue)
So, I sent some feelers out and my source just got back to me,
says he found something, we need to meet up.
This the guy you said was 98% reliable?
Uh, I mean, maybe 80.
We'll call it 85. Look, if his intel's legit,
we should take a shot.
Yeah. Okay, well, Danny's safe here for a bit,
but we're running out of time.
Why don't you find out what your guy has,
I'll go get Lola.
I need some wheels.
Wheels right behind you.
Oh, come on, let me take the truck.
-No. -Come on.
You're not taking the truck.
You're gonna look great behind the wheel of that thing.
You know what? I will look great.
'Cause I can pull it off. You can't.
That's the difference.
That's... one difference.
-Let me know what you find out. -Yeah!
-(truck door closes) -(engine starts)
*
-(engine shuts off) -(vehicle door opens)
Hey, buddy. You good?
We don't have a lot of time.
-They are on your ass. -Yeah, I'm aware.
So, talk to me about Dorix Logistics.
How high up do they go?
Suborbital.
-Is DoD backing them? -Not directly.
DoD has a "don't ask, don't tell" agreement with them,
but this is too exposed.
They activated someone. Damon Vickers.
Tier Three operative. Former Delta Force.
They're gonna sanitize the entire operation.
That includes you. And your brother.
Can they recall the order?
Not unless someone with four stars on their sleeve
owes you a favor.
Well, I don't have one of those in my pocket,
but a boy can dream.
I'm serious, Shaw.
Leave it.
You know that's not gonna happen.
But I do have a plan.
There's no planning your way out of this.
What is it?
They made us.
(grunts)
(tires screech)
Ah.
(groaning softly)
(birds chirping)
ANDERSON: Is there a problem?
Well?
(distant chatter)
(grunting)
(exhales)
* *
(gags, chokes)
(straining)
-(beeps) -(latch clicks)
Where is she? Where's Lola?
I-I don't know what you're talking about.
-(grunts) -(scalpel clatters)
(grunts)
(Velcro tearing)
VICKERS: Keep going. Move.
(grunting)
(both panting)
(panting)
(door closes)
Lola, are you okay?
Who are you?
Colter Shaw. (sniffles)
Came here to take you back to Danny.
-Danny? Is he okay? -He's okay.
He's worried about you.
They can't hurt you anymore, all right?
(Lola panting)
You got to come with me. We got to leave now.
Yeah?
Come on.
(inhales)
(coughs)
Got your location from Danny.
Are you taking me to him?
Not until I know you're both safe, no.
We're never gonna be safe.
I need you to trust me on this one.
Okay? There's a way out of this for you.
For both of you.
They're never gonna stop sending people after us.
Like that guy back there?
Took care of him.
I'll take care of the next guy.
You didn't kill him.
He's alive.
What are you talking about? How do you know that?
I just know.
She just knows.
(panting)
(swallows)
(grunts, inhales)
(exhales)
(phone buzzing)
Russell?
Reenie.
You're thinking about me, aren't you?
Oh, my gosh, how did you guess?
-Everything okay? -Yeah.
Listen, I need you to do me a favor.
I'm gonna, uh... (sniffles)
I'm gonna send you a...
a cell phone number,
and I need you to, uh,
get me all the incoming phone calls to it
over the last 24 hours.
Okay...
I mean, I'll do that, but isn't that
more of a "Randy's department" kind of thing?
Uh, yeah.
Listen, I don't want him to know it was me.
-Okay? -(scoffs)
You mean that you don't want Colter
to know that it came from you.
Yeah, you know, it's one of those things.
The less people that know, the better.
Russell, come on, you're kind of freaking me out.
No, it's all good. Everything's fine.
But, uh, make sure you cover your footprints on this, okay?
Yeah, sure, send it over.
I'll keep your little secret.
-All right. Thanks, Reenie. -(call beeps off)
(groans)
(grunts)
(groans)
(exhales)
-(phone buzzing) -(grunts)
(exhales)
(sniffles)
Hey.
-I got Lola. -That's good to hear.
What happened?
We got ambushed. Uh...
They took out my contact. I guess we got a...
a hit out on us, some...
some ex-Delta named Vickers.
Uh, Damon Vickers.
Think I just had a run-in with that guy.
-Did you take him out? -Thought I did,
but Lola here says that he's still alive, so...
Yeah, well, I'd take her word for it. (grunts)
Did you get hit, Russell?
Uh, yeah.
I've had worse.
He needs you.
Where are you? We're coming to you.
-(country song plays quietly) -(door opens)
(door closes)
(footsteps approaching)
-BARTENDER: What do you need? -(mouths)
One guy rolls in,
neutralizes four men
and takes the girl right out of your hands.
Is there anything I'm missing?
It was an unexpected complication.
-I'll take care of it. -But you didn't.
Colter Shaw and the asset got away.
Do I need to get somebody else for this?
No, sir.
I'll get them.
Russell Shaw poked his head out.
We got a satellite recon lock on his location.
-Got it. -You said that last time.
Get it done.
Russell.
Hey.
Hey, Russ. Look at me. Open up.
Ah, I was just resting my eyes.
-Take a look. -I'm good.
-Let me take a look. -(grunts)
-I'm good. -No, you're not good.
You've lost a lot of blood. I'll get you fixed up.
You got some anesthetic?
Slows cell repair. You don't need it.
-I would like it. -Yeah, well...
-I don't use it. -Of course you don't.
You're a psychopath.
Come on, I know it's in there. Give me the anesthetic.
All right. All right.
Oh, hey.
You must be Lola.
You'll live.
Oh.
Did you hear that? I'm gonna live.
-That's good news. -Yeah.
-We're gonna need another plan. -Yeah.
Yeah, well, the plan is you... you patch me up,
and we figure out how to deal with this Vickers.
We need to hurry. He's coming.
He's not alone.
Here we go.
You all right?
Yeah. I can hold a gun, can't I?
Colter? They're here.
-Go. -Come on, let's go.
-Colt, I'm gonna cover the back. -I got Lola.
*
COLTER: Here we go.
All right, you better get in here, okay?
Over there's better.
* *
(groans softly)
(grunts)
(coughs)
* *

(liquid dripping)
(dripping continues)
(quiet rustle)
(soft rustle)
(clicks)
VICKERS: Put it down.
(exhales)
(gun clatters on floor)
Where are they?
Who?
(shouts)
VICKERS: Danny and Lola.
Tell me where they are and I'll end this quick.
Oh, you Delta boys, always talking such a big game.
(chuckles, groans)
Okay, okay! All right. I'll tell you.
They're, um...
Oh, man, I forgot. I...
I guess you'll just have to kill me.
(silenced gunshot)
(Vickers grunts)
Don't.
Who put the contract out on us?
You all right?
Yeah.
Thank you.
-Yeah. -I thought that was it for me.
Oh, hey, kid.
What do you think, am I still gonna make it?
I'm sorry, I can't see anything.
Eh, I knew it. I'm a goner.
This isn't over.
No, I know.
I got to get Danny and Lola to safety.
I'm gonna find the head of that snake.
Let's finish this.
You sure about this?
It's what she does.
-(engine shuts off) -(van door opens)
(door closes)
COLTER: Barbie.
Thanks for meeting me here.
I was surprised to hear from you.
Was hoping you could help me out.
I'm here.
All right, this is Barbie.
She's gonna take you from here.
BARBIE: Once you get in this van,
it's gonna be like you never existed.
Your old names, your old friends...
everything, gone.
You can never return to your old lives again.
Understand?
Nothing to go back to.
BARBIE: I'll give you your new identities in the van.
Study them, know 'em inside and out.
You're gonna have time.
Long drive ahead.
Let's go.
* *
-Thank you. -COLTER: Yeah.
Thank you.
We're gonna be okay.
I know.
Nice. (laughs softly)
I don't know how to thank you for everything.
You already have.
You answered questions about my father
I've had for a long time, so...
thank you.
I'll send you a bill.
-Got it. -(van door opens)
(van door closes)
(engine starts)
(grunts softly)
Hey, there.
How'd you find me?
Pulled this phone from one of your guys...
...after they murdered my friend.
I'm sorry about Felton.
Sure you are.
I know how it works.
Yeah, well, your father never figured that out.
At least you know the rules.
My father made up his own rules.
He didn't like to play other people's games.
Especially not Uncle Sam's.
You don't have that choice.
Don't I?
I could end it right now.
You know what happens then.
Oh, yeah.
Be looking over my shoulder for the rest of my life.
But if I don't...
you send another guy after me
and I'm looking over my shoulder for the rest of my life.
It doesn't have to go that way.
How so?
There's always use for men like you.
(scoffs)
Hard pass.
Before you decide...
...there's something...
you ought to look at.
Take a look.
This is BS.
You know it isn't.
What's in that file,
what he did to Colter, it's all true.
Now, I'm guessing you wouldn't want him to see this,
and he doesn't have to.
So think very carefully.
Now, I have a problem that needs fixing.
Do it, and I will put you in the clear.
-And Colter? -Same.
(paper rustles)
And the file?
You take it and you burn it.
No one will ever know what your dad did.
Would you like to hear what the job is?
Does it matter?
That's the correct attitude, son.
(phone buzzing)
(sighs)
Hey. I've been waiting to hear back from you.
Oh, I play hard to get. You know that.
Yeah, you and me both.
Everything good? It all worked out?
Oh, yeah. Yeah, it always does.
Listen, um, I got another favor to ask,
and this one's kind of a biggie.
Of course you do.
What is it?
I, uh...
I got to go away for a while.
And I know Colter's gonna start asking and poking around, but...
he can't know why.
What-- Hold on, you're not even gonna tell him goodbye?
(sighs) Just...
tell him that I'm okay and that I had to split.
He can't know why.
-Russell... -I promise,
when-when I get clear of all this, I'll-I'll find you
and I'll give you all the details. Deal?
Deal.
I'll see you.
* *
(engine starts)
* Never seem to get far enough *
* Staying in between the lines *
* Hold on to what you can *
* Waiting for the end *
* Not knowing when *
* May the wind take your troubles away *
* Both feet on the floor, two hands on the wheel *
* May the wind take your troubles away *
* Trying to make it far enough *
* To the next time zone *
* Few and far between, past the midnight hour *
* You never feel alone, you're really not alone... *
(bottle clinks)
(cap pops off, clatters)
(engine approaching)
(chuckles) All right, you found the place.
It wasn't easy.
Eh, it's not supposed to be.
I guess you did say "off-grid."
No one who's seen it has ever lived to talk about it.
Well, been waiting for someone to put me out of my misery.
-(both chuckle) -It's good to see you.
So, what is this place?
It's, uh, long story.
-Home-- mm, sort of. -Yeah?
You gonna tell me why you had me go down to Echo Ridge
to get that piece of junk?
Uh-huh. That, uh, belonged to my father.
Had to arm wrestle my brother for it.
Well, I'm not sure you won on that, but...
-it's got good bones. -Yeah, I think so.
What are you-- You gonna fix it up?
Yeah, I need a good project.
Well, I got nowhere to be for a few days,
if you want a hand.
Yeah, I'll take all the help I can get.
-You got beer? -Yeah, you know it. Come on.
Huh. Look at this.
My old man's. His favorite thing to do.
My old man never took me fishing.
Boy, did I beg him to go,
but he just couldn't be bothered.
Teach you how to work on cars?
Eh, next-door neighbor.
Larry. Used to pay me to sweep his shop.
Yep. My old man wasn't around
very much, and when he was around,
my mother didn't want him in the house.
I didn't blame her.
(exhales) That was a long time ago.
-Stuff sticks with you. -It does.
I made a lot of the same mistakes with my daughter.
Probably why I don't see her much these days, but...
You know, you do what you can and...
and you take everything, you put it in a box
and then you bury it.
What about you?
That stuff your father was working on,
you get the answers you were looking for?
No, not quite.
Found out he was trying to do the right thing, though.
Well, sometimes, there's a cost to that.
Yeah, tell me about it.
Let's just say he was, uh...
-...complex. -(chuckles)
The best ones are.
Trick is, you got to take the bad with the good.
Mm, there was plenty of that.
At least I know he was doing everything he could, you know?
He was a good man, in the end.
Had trouble burying that box you were talking about.
It ain't easy. And hell, it'll haunt you.
Jump up and say "boo" when you least expect it.
Found that out the hard way.
But hey, I did get this old truck, right?
Spent a lot of time on this thing,
working on it with my dad.
-We got it up and running once. -(chuckles)
But, uh...
gave out on us again.
One thing my father was not good at: working on cars.
(exhales)
Nobody's perfect.
Not even close.
I'll get you up and running again.
