We have a problem, sir.

About an hour and a half ago,

security noticed that one of the guards

didn't swipe out for a scheduled break.

They found him unconscious in the lab.

? Anything missing

Alpha String Project.

Now boarding, Sky Wing Airlines Flight 507 to Mexico City.

Row 34, about halfway back . Thanks.

Welcome aboard. Thanks.

Did you guys know that the Mayans invented mathematics and astronomy?

Who cares about history? I've been saving up an entire year for this.

Just point me to the shops. All I want to do is...

Spend, spend, spend, we know.

Be nice to me and maybe I'll buy you a new shirt.

What's wrong with this shir t? Everything.

Hey, your father is entitled to wear all the ugly shirts he wants to.

Sir?

Thank you.

Who the hell is this guy ? Dr. Daniel Winter.

Employed by the STC for 12 years.

Ten of which were spent on the Alpha String Project.

n? What's his psych evaluatio

Eccentric, brilliant, with a god complex.

Our usual scientist.

I want an operations tea m set up immediately.

And find Caleb.

Tell him we have a Level 5 security breach.

. Have him meet the team on site

Hi. Hi.

First trip to Mexico? Yeah, it is.

You're gonna love it.

Caleb... I'm sorry.

You're on vacation!

Smith.

How long ago?

Yeah, I'm at the airport. I can be there in half an hour.

You promised this time it would be different.

. You always do this, Dad

Look, we haven't been on a family vacation in six years.

Claire, I'm sure it's nothing.

Okay, then why does it have to be you?

Why can't they send someone else?

? Let me just go check in with Quinn, I'll be on a flight later tonight. Okay

You know what?

Just once I'd like to feel like the important one.

You are, baby. I'll be on the plane tonight, I promise.

And you, how much money did you save up for this trip?

Four hundred dollars . Well, when I get to Mexico I'll double it.

Baby, I'm sorry about this, I'll make it up to you.

What does your husband do?

He's in security.

What's Quinn's ETA? He's here any minute.

All right. Quinn will be here any moment, people.

I need these systems up and running.

Allison Curran? Yes.

Joshua Tesslor. I'm the lead scientist at STC.

Welcome to the team. Thank you.

Now, we gear up and tear dow here pretty quick, so I wouldn't get too attached.

This would be your work station. Okay.

I'd take that. That'd be your field agent. Okay.

This is Curran.

It's Caleb Smith.

Agent Smith...

Caleb, please.

What about you, Curran? You got a name?

It's Allison.

Allison, how long have you been with STC? One year.

Is this your first Level 5?

Real or simulated? Real.

First, sir, yes.

All right, here's the drill.

While I'm in the field, you are my eyes and ears

in that room. Anything happens in there, anything at all,

you tell me first, okay? Absolutely.

All right, now someone let Pandora out of her box

and it's our job to put her back in. Do you follow?

. I think so, sir, yes

It's Caleb, Allison.

And what are you going to tell me? I didn't...

Anything and everything, right?

Sorry, yes.

Stay on your toes, kid. We're going to lock this up fast.

b. Yes, sir. I mean, Cale

Go!

Go! Go! Go! Clear.

Ram it open.

And clear. Clear!

I don't think anyone's home.

No.

We're clear.

Copy that. Sending in the team.

Bag these.

Get them to Allison Curran ASAP.

I want to know this woman. I want to know her name,

where she was born, what she eats for lunch,

the route she walks her do in the morning.

Are you getting this? Yes, sir.

There's something here.

There has to be. A guy like that who works for STC,

with that kind of clearance on that kind of project,

he wouldn't just steal something on a whim.

. This was planned. This was thought out

. Look at this

Who does this?

Who leaves this out like this?

Fake ID.

Looks like our boy was planning a trip.

Yeah, and he left in a hurry, too.

Got a laundry list of aliases.

Caleb, look.

? What does he want with you

No, it's not me.

It's my family.

Allison, I'm sending you a list of aliases.

. I want you to cross-reference it with the manifest from Flight 507

Can you do that?

b. Gentlemen, I have Cale

. Put him on the box

What do we have, Caleb?

High probability suspect already took an international flight.

We have a match.

There's a Jesus-Ernesto Ramiro listed on Flight 507.

I'm coming in. I'll be there in half an hour.

? What is he doing

Check the manifest. Sure.

Caleb's famil y might be on that flight.

t? Can you freeze tha

. I was right, that's his wife and daughter

My God.

Get me Major Dylan. Yes, sir.

Daniel knows that I'd head up any operation to bring him in.

And he's banking on the fact that

I won't jeopardize a fligh with my own family on it.

Greetings.

I can assure you that I mean no one any harm.

. I'm doing what I'm doing for the safety of my fello Americans and of the world

I have been forced to act

because my government has decided to militarize the Alpha String Project.

I cannot allow this to happen.

This is not a political statement

or a compunction of mine against the United States of America.

This is about survival.

We are dealing with the very fabric of time and space.

The instability of the device and the parameters

that we do not yet understand

could bring about a catastrophe of universal proportions.

It is delicate work,

work that I alone can finish.

This is not the kind of project that generals and senators

should be directing at this stage of its development.

Perhaps at no stage of its development.

But regardless,

I will not stand by and allow minds that do not understand

. attempt to apply unfinished work to ill-conceived plans

I know you will think me crazy,

I know you will fear my intentions,

but I have no choice.

I have been backed into a corner.

And one day you will realize that this is the only course of action that I can take.

I will take the steps necessary to accomplish my task.

I hope that you understand enough to not risk following me.

What have you got up your sleeve?

It's not like he didn't want to come.

That's not the point.

He was looking forward to this trip as much as we were.

I know.

And you know what? You're right.

We are gonna have a great time, even if it's just the two of us.

Okay? Okay.

Go ahead. Thanks.

Hey, my name's Liam. Hi.

Is everything okay with your dad? He deplaned quickly.

Look, Liam... I know. I know what you're thinking.

You're just standing here in the aisle, minding your own business,

? and some weird guy won't leave you alone, right

Well, I'm air security.

But I wouldn't want the bad guys to find out.

So why are you telling me?

Well, I wouldn't want a pretty girl like you to feel unsafe.

Hey, air security.

Try hitting on someone your own age.

Sit down.

Creepy. Yeah, I wouldn't worry about it.

There's one on every flight.

I'll keep an eye on him for you.
