- Beirut.

- Everybody... all ex-agents.

- Or ex-enemies.

We're too valuable to kill

and too dangerous to set free.

Welcome to the Colony.

- Quinn.

- Staal.

I understand.

This violence is not approved.

- I killed him in Tuzla.

- Apparently not well enough.

I really dislike that man.

You must wear this at all times.

It's part pager, part timer.

It tells you where to be.

When it signals, you must respond.

We're a think-tank. We're linked

to every law enforcement database.

We analyse terrorist incidents

and advise our client governments.

We're the last line of defence

against global terrorism,

and no one knows we exist.

What's on the menu for today?

A Global Air 747 en route

from San Francisco to Seoul.

We are interpreting signals

from the crash site.

Headset on.

Hand on the scanner at all times.

We have a feed coming in

from Washington.

I have a statement from the

Secretary on the Global Air tragedy.

Of the 176 passengers on board,

there are no survivors.

The CIA reports that the plane was

deliberately downed by North Korea.

The Secretary will brief you later

regarding the U. S. response.

The Koreans deny responsibility, and

the President consults his allies.

Jack, your worth is in your ability

to analyse data in times of crisis.

This is the Colony's

reason to exist.

The plane exploded from

internal malfunction. It's gone.

We've intercepted the transmission

of Global 277's voice recorder.

We've got unscheduled traffic

at heading 329...

It's not a pleasant prospect,

the Koreans having that technology.

Anyone with an alternative?

Anyone?

Analysis confirms the report.

Moishe, do you buy it?

I'm not sure.

He's lying.

He's covering something up.

- They know something about it.

- Let's examine the images.

- Hold it.

- It's a shadow.

- Bingo. An AWACS.

- No, an F-4 Weasel.

- Include it in the simulation.

- It could've been hidden.

The Koreans pick up the F-4 on radar

but shoot down the passenger jet.

The U.S. used the jumbo as cover

for data recon on a weapons test.

They were set up so the Americans

could eavesdrop on a military base.

Nice call, Jack.

Underwater lasers.

One metre below the surface.

They destroy anything they contact.

If they don't get you,

the undertow will.

- No one ever escaped?

- No one.

A certain Bryce was the last to try.

Before the lasers were installed.

Poor fellow didn't survive 48 hours.

His "guardian" took care of him.

Each resident has a guardian,

without knowing who it is.

The guardian observes the resident's

attitude, behaviour and production.

If the resident escapes,

the guardian terminates him.

- How have you hidden this place?
