in these matters.

According to subsection 16

of the Humanity Act,

you and your son

are to be transferred to the

resettlement colony of New Eden.

You have 12 hours to pack your

belongings and be ready to leave.

Essentials only. Toiletries.

A change of clothing.

That kind of thing.

This pamphlet...

This pamphlet explains everything.

He has a recital

tomorrow afternoon.

And he's been

practicing for months.

So, what am I

supposed to tell him?

Tell him

it's for the best.

Oh, my God!

He's all I have.

You used all our clean water.

It's okay.

You need to promise me that you

will never scare me like that again.

I promise.

You're a lucky boy, Lucas.

Such a lucky boy.

Crazy.

Agent Noah Kross.

Access case file 56672996.

Implement under my authority

the following instructions:

Delay the deportation

by Rachel and Lucas Weller.

Take no further action

without my consent.

No notes at this time.

Lock file.

Report to follow.

How'd you get in here?

Key was under the mat.

I don't have a mat.

What's goin' on, Noah?

You're up for a promotion.

Now, why would you delay

a deportation order, huh?

What's so special

about this file?

The boy sings.

He has a recital.

He's been practicing for weeks.

A what?

A recital.

You getting soft?

It's a good memory

for a boy to have.

No matter what

happens to him next.

Just let him keep it.

Noah, you can't help these people.

Deportation orders are final.

You know that.

And their fate is sealed.

You had a heart once, Adam.

They've got 24 hours.

And you need

to get your lock fixed.

Going up?

I had to be sure

we weren't being followed.

We only have a few minutes.

Why should I trust you?

We both have a lot to lose

if this is a trap.

What is it you know,

Mr. Ravetch?

'Never surrender'?

What does that mean?

What is 'the truth'?

My brother and his wife

were deported to New Eden

three years ago.

I haven't heard from them since.

- I can't help you.

- No.

But you can help others.

This will answer

all of your questions.

And I am not in this alone.

We could use your help.

You know where to find me.

What am I lookin' at?

New Eden.

What have we done?

Amazing Grace

How sweet the sound

That saved a wretch

Like me

I once was lost

But now am found

Was blind

But now I see

I pledge allegiance to the Flag

of the United States of America,

and to the Republic

for which it stands,

one Nation under God, indivisible,

with liberty, and justice for all.

Stay close, please.

What are you doing here?

Thought you could use a ride.

To where?

Hey, you were good!

I mean, you were really good.

- You think so?

- Absolutely!

Wouldn't you say so?
