James's Arrest and Aftermath

Cyrus is getting stronger. But he's not waking up, Mom. He will. Soon. He will, Bird. Bruce, thank you for stopping Magnus. Yeah, um... I need to get some air. But you don't really breathe. I'll go after him. Come on, Mr. Board. Are we sure Magnus is still unconscious? Let's see. Hey, Smokey, you awake? Birdie, please don't kick the psychopath. Ugh, you never let me do anything fun. And he almost fried us all with fireballs. No one's saying he doesn't deserve to get kicked. Mom!

of finally seeing things my way. Big wins today, people. Big wins. Now we just have to get Magnus back to home sweet prison. How are you going to do that? Wait, I'm not sure I want to know. I was thinking we just... Put him in cryo, leave him at the gate with a note. No harm, no foul. James Anders, I'm Federal Marshal Lisa Ellerby. These are Marshals Grace and Castaldo. Oh, hello, Marshals. Welcome to Holiday Corp.

I suppose you're here for the prisoner. Smooth, Dad. Follow my lead. Oh, thank goodness you're here, agents. Marshals. Of course. That man on the floor... tortured me and my family, and then escaped from prison to finish the job. Is that right? He tried to hurt my son here in this hospital bed. Careful, he's dangerous.

We're aware of Magnus Sato's abilities, ma'am. Marshal Grace, get him out to the refrigerated truck. Take all precautions. Yes, ma'am. Later, Incinerator. Thank you, Marshals. We know he'll be in good hands with you. As will you. Mr. Anders, please place your hands behind your back. Me? James? Dad? Marshall, what is this? James Anders.

While under probation for stealing a military helicopter three years ago, you staged a prison break and released one of the world's most dangerous criminals. You're under arrest. Oh, man. Wait, I think there is a misunderstanding. There's no misunderstanding, Dr. Anders. We're taking your husband into custody. Let's go, sir. Listen, I can explain. See, my son Cyrus took this trip to Florida. Okay, maybe I can't explain. Dad!

It's gonna be okay, Mom. Mom, they're really taking him. I need to get your father a lawyer. Or I could swim to the prison and... Bird. Never mind. I'll find a lawyer. I'll go check on Badger and Bruce. Take care, Cyrus. Hi, my name- Brin. Lee?

Bruce Confronts His Past

Hey, Mr. Board, let's land on the roof. Hey, bro. What you doing up here? You sure I'm still your bro, Badger? What's going on? You seem... sulky. I'm just thinking. About what? I told you. I told you and Bertie both that once I started down that path... What path? You saved Cyrus, Bruce. And almost killed someone in the process. Queen Bertie Anders has arrived on the roof.

Ivan, now's not the time. Yes, queen. Ugh. Bruce, you okay? Sure. What are you doing? Hugging you for saving my big brother. You should not be celebrating what happened down there. Why not? Because this is what I was worried about when you asked me to track that woman in Cyrus' room. I don't understand. I'm not sure I do either, but when I had Magnus by the throat just now, I... I felt... Anger? We all felt that. He was trying to flambe us. No, it wasn't anger. It was... rage.

And in that moment... Hey, Bruce, it's us. You can tell us anything. All of these memories started flooding back. What? Memories of dr. Whittier Thornton rust the missions battling the wit kids and the thoughts I used to have about them hurting them Hurting other people and it felt Natural Like home. You're not that person anymore. You're not him. How do you know? We're machines, Badger. Programmed machines. And this is how I was built. No, it's how Adam was built.

But you're Bruce, and you are trying to save someone you care about. But what if, by acting like him, I open some sort of door that I won't be able to close? What if I... Turn into Adam again? We won't let that happen. Hey, I want in on this hug. We won't let it happen. I'm going to have the robotics team give you a full workup. Make sure you're, you know, you. Yeah.

That sounds good. Thanks, Bertie. Of course. We'll make sure you come out of your next six-minute nap as sweet as pie. Maybe not that sweet. I like you having a tiny edge. Dr. Anders has arrived on the roof. Thanks, Ivan. Hey, guys. Any luck with Dad? Well, he's in jail. I'm gonna see if they'll let me visit. They arrested Jimmy? Bet you never thought you'd be visiting Dad in the big house. Not again, no. Again?

When was the last time? Never mind. Can I come? I've always wanted to see what it's like. That's a big no. I need you to hang here and keep an eye on your brother. Okay. I'm going to go down to the cafeteria and buy up all of Sai's favorite foods. See if that'll wake him up. Also, I'm starving. Good plan. Thanks again, Bruce. Yeah, thanks. For real. See you guys.

Queen Birdie exited the roof. Badger, I need you to promise me something. Anything. If you see me acting strange, you need to tell me, okay? Don't let it go because if this starts to get away from me, no one is safe.

Cyrus's Awakening

Br... Brinley? Brinley? Brinley! What? Oh, sorry. Saibot, can you figure out our coordinates? I'm having trouble getting a signal. Of course you are. If I'm going to die, it's not going to be with her. I heard that. Really? Cyrus? Brindley? No, not you. I thought I heard. You thought you heard what? Never mind. Look, Casey.

You don't like me, I double don't like you, and we both know this boat and the people on it are not leading us to anything good. The good news is that getting out of jams is my jam. Hello? Where am I? Is this the hospital? Hello? Is anyone out there? Mom? Dad? Brinley. Hello, Cyrus Sanders, and welcome back. Ivan, is this Holiday Corp? It is. Can you... Help me out of bed Ivan.
