I'm gonna say this once. Are you listening?
- Yeah. - Back off!
Just do as you're told, please.
- The vibes. It happens all the time.
- So why do you trust them?
- Well, one time I didn't, and I should have.
My dad was a fireman.
He died that night in a house fire,
Saving a couple kids.
- Apparently martino and your partner
Were having an affair, and he was married.
- Her history doesn't bother you?
- I read the press release of went down in denver.
You're a hero.
Lives were saved. - Lives were lost.

[inmates yelling]
- You're going to jail, missy!
[chuckles]
Well, better safe than sorry, right?
- What are you talking about?
- Unexplained suicides up in riverton.
We are off to see the warden.
- You use soap on a rope?
- Hey, I don't judge your personal hygiene products.
Although you might wanna invest and get some moisturizers.
You look a little dry around the nose.
- Oh, you want to swap beauty tips.
Then we can talk about the hair that's sprouting
From your shoulders, your nose, and your, um...
Ears!
- Ow!
- Or, you know, you could just tell me
About the prison suicides.
- Well, let's go with the suicides.
- Inventory! What a bone.
Tycho brahe's snot pocket. Eww.

- What you doin'? - Rebuilding a carburetor.
- That's funny. I mean, what's the tune?
- Something I've been working on for my father.
- Whoa. How old is your father?
[stops playing]
No, I mean, that's really good for you.
Can I have the keys to the cherry picker?
- Why? And no, you can't.
- I just want to fix this lightbulb.
It's flickering. It's really annoying.
- Just let it go, Claudia.
- You know, it's just gonna burn out,
And you'll have me fixing it later.
- Okay, here's the thing, you know, these bulbs,
They never burn out-- they're shelby bulbs.
They were invented by adolphe chaillet 108 years ago.
So there's no need--
What am I doing even talking to you?
I am busy.
I--I will tighten the bulb later.

- I know you have a corner on the whole vibe thing,
But this place is creepy.
- Well, maybe it just needs a woman's touch.
- Agents Bering and Lattimer.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
There's a tropical storm headed this way,
And the preparations are endless.
I'm corinne huggins, the warden.
I'm not sure what the secret service's interest is
In all this, but I expect to be kept in the loop.
- Of course. - Good. This way.
Riverton hadn't had a suicide in two years.
Now, including donaldson,
We've had four in the past month.
- His parole had just come through, right?
- He had reconciled with his wife,
And he was looking forward to being with his family.
- Not a very high risk for suicide.
- None of them were.
All four were model prisoners.
- Had anything new been brought in
Before the first suicide-- furniture, artwork?
- Agent Lattimer, this is a maximum-security facility,
Not a college dormitory.
There's been nothing new. No woman's touch.
- Right. Of course.
- What about new inmates?
- There's been a freeze on intake.
We've been operating over-capacity
Since before I took over.
- When was that? - Just over a month ago.
Just before the first suicide.
- I bet she's got some demonic tchotchke on her desk
That she uses as a paperweight.
Okay, I take back the "woman's touch" comment.
- My predecessor had been here quite a few years.
There hasn't been much time to look at paint chips.
- [echoing] you killed me, killed me, bunny.
- As it is, we've had to store his things
In the anteroom closet until his estate is out of probate.
- Myka?
Okay, this prisoner donaldson didn't leave a suicide note.
Mind if I look through his stuff?
- [echoing] you killed me, bunny...
- These are his personal effects.
- Coo-ell! Love that.
- Ouroboros. - Huh?
- It's a snake.
It's a symbol of self-reflection and cyclicity.
- And the best rush album since roll the bones.
snakes and arrows rocks.
- Written by one of our inmates.
His path to salvation. - Creepy.
Who's john hill?
- Though we're surrounded by concrete and razor wire,
I can show you more freedom than the men who hold the keys.
- What's he in for?
- He killed his wife. A lot.
- Darkness has descended on this house.
Death has returned to riverton.
And those who do not learn from history
Are doomed to repeat it.
- Dr. Cooper's ready for y'all.
- Regret has no place in your life.
Your only salvation is here.
- Artie, if you won't let me use the cherry picker,
Then how am I--
Hmm.
No way.

[thwack] [grunts] oh! Oh...Oh!
Okay...This is mildly disconcerting.

Ahh.

Great.
Now we know they last 108 years.
- Do you think freaky cult leaders are born
With crazy eyes,
Or is it some sort of corrective surgery?
- Pete, what is it?
- You don't see that? - See what?
- That guy standing there.
It's my dad.
[thunder rumbles]
- Uh, so, uh, Pete saw his father,
But you didn't, right?
- Yeah. But I should probably mention
That I saw sam earlier.
- What? Why didn't you say anything?
- Well, you know, sam's dead.
And your father's dead.
I mean, you can understand my reticence, right?
- You're both hallucinating?
And when were you gonna mention that to me?
- Well, we just did.
[thunder booms]
- What--what was that?
- Tropical storm inez.
- Uh, you didn't say that there was a storm.
- Why is that important?
- How many times do I have to tell you
About electrical energy?
It can crank up the intensity of an artifact,
I don't know, tenfold.
And if an artifact is causing these hallucinations,
Then a powerful electrical charge
Can make these visions seem absolutely real.
- Well, they seem pretty real now.
- All right, then listen.
You're gonna have to stay in constant contact--you got that?
Constant. And I don't care if you have nothing to report,
Every hour you're gonna call me, all right?
And meanwhile you're gonna find out everything--
everything about these inmates who killed themselves.
Start with the last one, lee donaldson.
- According to your statement, lee said something
Before he jumped.
- "I have to get away from her."
That's what he said.
I can only think he meant claire.
- That's the girl he killed in the hit and run, right?
- He quit drinking, but never forgave himself
For taking a life.
- Guilt's a powerful thing.
He was your trustee, right?
- More than that. We were friends.
I'm trained in recognizing the warning signs.
I don't know why I didn't see them.
- Did lee have any enemies?
- John hill.
Riverton's self-proclaimed messiah,
Leading his personal religious cult.
Lee was an early convert,
But after hill started capitalizing on the suicides,
Lee saw what he really was--
An opportunist preying on fear.
Lee got out, and hill didn't like losing
One of his lambs.
- Hill may have strange religious beliefs,
But he's harmless.
I don't particularly like what he has to say,
But you can't deny the calming effect it's had
On some of the inmates.
How are we today, mr. Hill?
- Another day above ground, warden.
Another day above ground. [thunder]
- Indeed.
These are agents Bering and Lattimer.
They'd like to ask you some questions.
I'll be in my office.
- Where'd you get that necklace?
- Well, you could say it's--
It's always been with me.
- Or you could say where you got it.
- The object itself is of no importance.
Its value lies in what it represents.
- And what is that?
- Some demand that we consume ourselves with remorse
For our supposed sin.
Ouroboros reminds us to transcend the cycle
And walk the path to enlightenment.
- No remorse, huh?
What about the path to parole?
- I was and am his instrument on earth.
And with my hands, it is his will
And not mine that is done.
To feel remorse...
Is to shame god.
- What about those who are remorseful?
Like donaldson.
- Lee's death revealed his greater purpose.
Man cannot be saved without sacrifice.
- Oh, I see. Oh, that's a neat trick, huh?
Now you get to tell your boys
You can protect them from sacrifice, like donaldson.
- My followers are free because
They know the way to freedom.
- [echoing] you killed me, killed me, bunny.
- The cruelest prison is the one that we build
For ourselves out of fear and regret.
- No.
- Step back.
- Sam?
This isn't real.
This can't...Be real.
- Hey.
Sam again?
- Yeah.
- Ehh.
Ha ha.
[tap] Oh!
[tap]
I can't...Move!
Okay, no need to panic. Just take off the coat.
[straining]
Can't take off the coat. Okay, new plan.
Oh, I'm so getting grounded.
Incoming!
Better you than me.
Aah!
[shouting] Artie!
[thunder]
- This is the last one.
What is it you're looking for?
- I'm not sure. Uh, anomalies, patterns.
- Riots.
- That's a little specific, but sure.
- No, no, look.
For decades, riverton was known as the snake pit.
Dozens of inmates went insane here.
Then, in 1979, during hurricane david,
There were uncontrollable riots.
I mean, the place almost burned down.
Six months later it was closed.
- Reopened a year later under warden matthews.
He was here until he died last month.
- So what did he do differently?
[thunder rumbling]
Warden? Are you okay?
- I beg your pardon.
The week is catching up with me.
- I was just asking what matthews did differently
To whip this place into shape.
- Well, he was very religious.
He instituted daily prayers.
He swore it turned the place around.
That's him.
- Hmm.
Hey, hey, hey. This looks familiar.
Check out what he got rid of when he moved in.
And no more riots.
- He wasn't a very tolerant man.
Anything he thought was pagan he had taken out.
- Well, let's go see the good reverend.
- Good-bye snakes and arrows.
[thunder rumbling]
- And that should take care of that.
- Warden, I had your permission to wear that.
- I'm not sure I understand. What, exactly, is the danger?
- I'm sorry,
We can't disclose that information.
- I was quite clear, you get free reign of my institution,
I get some answers.
- Please don't misconstrue our silence as disrespect.
It's just beyond our authority to tell you.
- Yeah, but I'm pretty sure
There won't be any more suicides.
- Cause of death, brain hemorrhage
Due to blunt-force trauma.
Final report to come.
- You could have helped me, doctor.
- Lee, I'm sorry. I tried--I did.
- I thought you were my friend.
You ignored the warning signs.
You let me die, doctor!
- Stop--lee!
Lee, I-I'm your friend! I tried--
- You killed me, doctor.
- Listen to me!
- You told me the suicides would stop.
Now we have another one.
Clearly you're not able to help.
And you're not being truthful with me
About what's going on.
- I promise you, warden,
We have told you everything that we know.
- Oh, really?
And what, exactly, are you looking for?
- Well, it could be anything.
- Look, sometimes freaky stuff causes
Other freaky stuff to happen.
[thunder]
- After the storm passes,
I expect you two to be gone.
I'm gonna request a federal team of investigators.
- Okay, so he was here alone,
And he was depressed about donaldson.
- Medical examiners record their autopsy findings.
Maybe he has a recorder around here somewhere.
- Right.
- So the--so look-- look for one.
- Well...
- Fine. I'll do it.
- I'm over here.
- I'll do it. I'll do it.
Okay...
God...Sorry, I just want to look here.
- Hey, Myka.
- Okay, play it.
- [intermittent static] lee, I'm sorry. I tried, I did.
Lee, I'm sor-- [static]
- Okay, okay, so now he's talking to the dead guy.
But he should know better. He's a doctor.
- What's that static sound?
Did you hear that? - Yeah.
- Play it again. - Okay.
- [intermittent static] lee, I'm sorry. I tried, I did.
Lee, I'm sorry! [static]
- Did you hear that? - Yeah.
It sounded like bad cell phone service.
- It's 10 thousand cycles per second.
It could be the electrical interference
That any natural material makes when it vibrates.
- Okay, so where does it come from?
- Well, any number of minerals or heavy metals
Or it can be an artifact that contains both.
Well, just give me a second. Just one--ah.
[identical static noise] [laughs] uh...Yeah, okay.
Does that sound familiar? - That's it.
- So, Artie, we're looking for some kind of a mineral artifact
That causes hallucinations.
[banging noises] - Is that banging?
Do you hear--
Yeah, no, you do that. You do that, but I--
- Artie? Hello? What-- - No, I'm okay, I'm okay.
I just-- [banging noises continue]
- You know what, Artie, we got it.
Thanks. We'll call you later.
- Yeah, all right.
[banging noises tapping out morse code]
S...O...
S-o-s?
[banging continues]
[shouting] Claudia!
[voice echoing]
- Artie!
- Oh, hi, Artie. Hi.
Huh, funny story.
So I kind of, uh, tried to fix this lightbulb,
Even though you expressly told me not to.
And man, have I learned my lesson!
You're so right about this place.
You just never know what to expect.
Okay, you're pissed.
Can we move past that part for now
And get to the part where you get me down from here?
- That wouldn't be volta's lab coat that you're wearing?
- All part of the hilarious story
I should really tell you when I'm back on planet earth.
- The reason, Claudia that volta's lab coat
Is in the Warehouse is because volta couldn't control
Its magnetic field.
As you may have noticed,
Each metallic object that it connects to
Makes the coat stronger and stronger.
- That explains so much. Thank you.
- [stammering]
My glasses!
Those better not be scratched!
- You know, when I was in girl scouts,
We would make these little mini metal detectors
So we could hunt for gold.
Most speakers are coated with a polymer film
That picks up vhf frequencies.
But we never found any gold.
But we did find a lot of worthless minerals.
- Aha. - Mm-hmm.
[thunder rumbling]
- Are you okay?
- Yeah. Yeah.
- I--I want you to know that you can tell me things.
- I, um...
I got the report about denver.
- What'd it say?
- I don't know. I...Didn't read it.
Intellectually, I know I did everything by the book.
- Of course you did.
You're you.
- What if I missed something, Pete?
What if it's my fault?
- Myka, the only person responsible for sam's death
Is the piece of garbage that pulled the trigger that day.
You protected the president. That's the gig.
You're a hero, and so is sam.
Okay?
- Yeah. - Okay?
- Mm-hmm.
- That's a cool-ass science project.
- Yeah, it's, uh... [sniffling]
Now, it's, um...
[device crackling]
It's not working.
- Sounds like it's working.
- No, it's--it's not.
It's just crackling at everything.
- Well, maybe there's minerals everywhere.
- Look, how can there be m--
Minerals.
The miners' mine.
They are everywhere, including in the ground.
Come on. Thank you.
I'm sorry about the...
Look. Quartz mines.
Quartz.
Do you see?
This building was built on an old quartz mine.
And back then, indigenous materials
Would have been used when building a new structure.
- Quartz, as in the mineral?
- As in hallucination inducer.
- As in this whole freaking structure is
One giant tuning fork,
And mother nature's just banging away.
- Okay, now, I've got these magnets.
They're attached to this thing.
When I let go, they're coming right at you.
They'll stick to you and the stuff near you.
Okay, here they come.
- Ow!
- Okay, they're on.
Would it have killed you to put a warning label on this thing?
- And say what?
"only put on in case of stupid"?
- Oh, just bottom line this for me, Artie.
- Worst-case scenario? - Oh, why not?
- The entire Warehouse buckles in on itself,
Crushing us both to death.
[power surge hums]
- Okay, yeah, I changed my mind. Sugarcoat it.
- Okay, it must be the storm
Because I can't get any reception.
- Okay, so the whole building is causing
The hallucinations, right? - Right.
- So maybe we should start thinking about what stopped them
For 30 years.
- Okay, so the prison opens.
- Right. - There's a hurricane.
Suddenly there's a ton of violence.
The prison closes. It reopens with a new warden,
And suddenly the violence stops.
- Right. He dies. His stuff goes into storage.
The suicides start. I don't know...
Maybe the old bible banger had something
That was curing the crazy.
- Right.
- Maybe this is what Mrs. Frederic meant
By "endless freaking wonder."
[loud thunder]
- Let's go. - Yeah, let's get out of here.
- 'cause they're not there. - We did not see that.
- Right. - Right.
- Warden? Warden huggins? - No!
- Warden, what's going on? It's locked.
- Have you got the keys? - Stop.
Stop. I'm sorry!
- Okay, he cuckoo for cocoa puffs.
- Warden huggins, it's Agent Bering.
Are you all right?
- Get back, dr. Cooper!
That's not true. Aah!
Aah!
- Look out. Let me bust the door down.
- But it's--it's--
- Oh! Oh! - It's a warden's door.
It's probably sturdier than most.
- I wish you would've said that about five seconds ago.
- No, no! Get away from me!
- That's not a good sign.
We have to go through the ex-warden's stuff in storage.
- [pained cries]
[inmates shouting]
[alarm blaring]
[thunder]
- [whimpering]
[muttering, whimpering]
- I mean, how much "world's greatest warden" crap
Can you have?
- We don't even know what we're looking for.
- Why would this time be any different?
- Okay, look. Give me the farnsworth.
I'm gonna try Artie again.
[men yelling, alarm blaring]
- It appears that riverton is now the land of the blind.
And we are its one-eyed kings.
[chaotic shouts, alarm blaring]
[Farnsworth buzzing]
- Just a minute. Yeah?
- Artie! Artie, thank god.
Okay, what shuts down quartz?
- Of course, it's quartz. It's quartz, right.
Yeah, that makes perfect sense. I should have thought of quartz.
- Artie...
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, listen.
Um, pierre curie and his brother jacques,
They proved the existence of a converse effect
Of piezoelectricity.
- You know what that is, don't you?
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- So what you've gotta do is you--
- Help! Artie.
- Yeah, uh, sorry. Yeah, uh...
Okay, the frequency of a piece of quartz
Can be completely cancelled out
By its proximity to a second piece of quartz.
Now, the second piece is probably
What the artifact... [fades out]
I'm having a little...
With the image breaking up.
It's a large piece, okay? ...Parts of...
Is the storm...Worse?
- A lot.
- When you find the artifact,
You gotta put it exac... [fades out]
Exactly...Before
Be...Proxim... The original frequency
...Essential...
- Artie. Artie!
- Ugh!
- Okay, big piece of quartz in the closet.
- Hey, hello. Can we get back to me, Artie?
There's a bicycle on me.
- We're gonna have to reduce the magnetic field.
But we're gonna do it very gradually.
We have to do that just because
We wouldn't want to destroy your central nervous system.
- No. No, we wouldn't. We would not.
[metallic scraping]
- Hey, what is that?
That sounds bad. What is that?
[noise getting louder]
Artie! Artie?
- Box of crap. Box of crap.
- Warden, whatever you're seeing, it's not real.
You're perfectly safe.
- It's the cross.
Uh...Uh...
Claudia, new plan.
But listen, you have to do exactly--
Exactly as I say. Got that?
- You da man.
[metal scraping continues]
- Stay right there.
- What?
- Bingo! - You found it?
[warden sobbing in background]
- What is it that they say about those who live by the sword?
[warden continues sobbing, muttering in background]
Stand aside, please.
- Is that some sort of prison term
For "you're a dead woman"?
- I can't take the door off its hinges
If you're standing in front of it.
- You really think we're just gonna let you in there?
- If the prison is in an uproar,
That means the warden is in trouble.
She's always supported my work. I would like to help.
[warden cries out, yelling incoherently]
[gunshot] - Wait!
[thunder crashes]
- Target has arrived. Repeat, target has arrived.
- Sam? Sam?
It's happening again.
- You should have warned me, petey.
- Dad?
- If you knew I was never coming home,
Why didn't you say something?
- Repeat, target is on the move. Let's move in.
- Negative. Negative.
The plan is to extract at the stairs.
Sam, wait! [gunshots]
[thunder rumbling]
- I was a kid.
It was just a feeling. I was afraid.
- Well, it's time to be a man,
Take responsibility for your actions,
Your fears, your regrets.
- It's your fault. You were late.
- Was I?
- You killed me, bunny.
Now you've gotta make it right.
[thunder]
- It's time to pay the price, boy.
- The cruelest prison is the one we build for ourselves
Out of fear and regret.
- What? What did you say?
- Not a day goes by that I don't miss you.
But you would have gone to work that morning
Whether I would have warned you or not.
And I have no more regret... - [hill's voice] regret...
- About not stopping you.
And I have no more fear... - Out of fear...
- That I did the wrong thing.
- Regret has no place in your life.
- It wasn't my fault.
It's just-- it's who you were,
And who I try and be every day of my life.
- [hill's voice] the cruelest prison is the one
That we build for ourselves.
- Stay away from me, sam!
- Myka... Myka, listen to me.
You can fight this. Okay?
You know what happened in denver.
- All your planning and preparations,
They weren't enough.
- You know the truth.
Don't be afraid of it.
This is the report.
Remember?
You know what's in it.
Don't be afraid.
- Sam said I killed him.
- You know that's not the truth.
Myka, listen, you don't need a report
To tell you what you already know in your heart.
You did everything right.
Sam didn't listen to you.
That's why he's dead. He screwed up.
Not you.
Do you understand?
Now, tell sam the truth.
- I'm sorry, sam.
- Sorry's not gonna bring me back, bunny.
- I'm sorry because you made the mistake.
Not me. - You were late.
- No.
No.
You were early.
The target made you, and you got yourself killed.
I love you, sam.
I always will.
But I have to move on.
I have...To move on.
[thunder rumbling]
- Wow, it's-- - It's getting worse.
- You okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.
- What are we gonna do with this?
- Okay, um-- - Artie said--
- The picture of the old warden's office
On the wall-- so it was there.
[thunder crashes]
- Hurry, Artie. - Oh, good idea!
[metal scraping]
- What is that? It sounds like a truck.
- No, there's no truck. - Oh, my god.
- Not a truck!
All right, it's a truck.
Oh, wait, wait!
[snap]
Come on, come on!
- Hang on.
- Hey, what's that for, to get rid of the body?
- No.
It's a backup plan if this doesn't work.
- What do you mean "if it doesn't work"?
[electricity buzzing]
I don't think I'm gonna like this.
- Old girl!
Come and get me!
- Oh, Artie, no. Don't do it!
No, please, Artie!
Oh, god, I hope you're a good shot.
Please, Artie-- please be good at this.
- Just...Don't...Move.
- Okay!
I promise I'll be good from now on.
- Grab it. - Okay, I'm trying!
Got it.
Aah!
Oh!
[laughing]
Artimis maximus!
[Artie chuckles]
That was awesome!
- Yeah, it kinda was awesome, wasn't it?
Yeah.
All right, let's get out of here.
You've got to take that off right away.
- Okay. Yeah. - Now. Now.
- Hey. Are you hurt?
- No. No, I'm fine. What happened?
- Well, it's a long story. I hope you like crosses.
- Pete!
- Oh... - Oh, my god.
- Help me.
- What happened?
- Oh, yes.
- Okay, okay, he's losing a lot of blood.
We gotta get him out of here. - No, no, no. No.
It's all right.
He's chosen me for sacrifice.
I'm...On...A new path.
