for a 48-hour furlough.

Top secret... you'll be under

my personal supervision.

You gotta be kidding me.

The president has authorized me

to pull together

a measure of recourse.

Re-re-recourse?

What... what recourse,

general?

You think... you think anything

we do right now

is gonna make this better?

Things don't get better now,

general.

I took a chance.

I blew it.

I can't get her back.

And no matter what

that grand jury says,

it's not gonna be worse

than knowing that.

Look...

we've known each other too long

to waste time like this.

Here's how this

is going to work.

Tomorrow,

one of my men will be here

to take you

to an undisclosed location.

It's very simple.

You have a choice.

You stay here,

keep feeling sorry for yourself,

and nothing changes.

Or you go with them,

clean yourself up,

get your act together,

and be a part of this operation.

You haven't even told me..

what the operation is, general.

It's a second chance, Sean...

An opportunity

to make things right.

You have clearance

to tell me why we're here yet?

Danny, I'm in the dark

just as much as you are.

But we're about to find out.

Sean, it's good to see you.

You remember my partner,

Danny Gates.

Of course.

I'm really glad

you're both able to be here.

Welcome aboard, Knox.

I'm pleased you decided

to come along on this mission.

You look like you've been

keeping busy down here.

Yeah, looks like the bat cave.

You want to tell me

what this is about, sir?

It's probably best

if I show you.

Come on.

Please don't step any closer.

That line is there

for a reason.

Dr. Bryce, I'd like you

to meet Sean Knox

and Daniel Gates.

I'm assigning them

to work on your team.

Knox was one of my most

trusted field operatives.

Yes, well, I'm sure

they're both highly qualified.

Let's not start this again,

shall we?

General,

I don't mean any offense,

but soldiers who specialize

in high-stress situations...

there have actually

been studies that show

they demonstrate

very little brain activity.

I don't see how

that's exactly pertinent.

They're not qualified

for this mission.

She's talking about

reduced neural flow.

It's an adrenaline thing.

Has the effect of slowing down

mental acuity.

Fewer decisions

decreases the likelihood

of cognitive paralysis.

Not that I really read

the studies.

Somebody want to tell me

what this is?

We're standing in the core

of the most powerful

particle collider ever built.

Most colliders cap out at 27%.

It's a stability concern.

We found a way

to push through that.

Earlier this year,

our system went online

at 82% capacity...

At which point,

this window appeared.

So it's, what,

some kind of hologram?
