Secret Warehouse....
Sheryl: Here. Have some water.
Dr. Frank: Thanks.
Sheryl: Does it still hurt?
Dr. Frank: Yes, a little bit...I never had this kind of pain before.
Sheryl: I got some med-kit. Just hold on tight.
Dr. Frank: Why...did you save me?
Sheryl: Why did I save you? Because...I cared about you.
Dr. Frank: But I killed the Director.
Sheryl: Look. We may need to keep moving. For all we know, those troops will come to get us in any minute.
Dr. Frank: Yes, you're...right about it.
Sheryl: Are you really...one of them?
Dr. Frank: Don't ask me that question.
Sheryl: I just want to know!
Dr. Frank: I have no clue of who or what I am. Ok?
Sheryl: Maybe, you should try some DNA testing.
Dr. Frank: No...I won't do that.
Sheryl: Frank. I'm worried about you. We need to know...I need to know.
Dr. Frank: Like you said, we can't stay here much longer. Hurry and get the med-kit. We'll go after my treatment is done.
Jason Stash's home....
DING! DONG!
Jason: I'll be right there.
CREAK!
Jason: Sir? What are you doing here?
John: I have...bad news, Jason. It's...about your father.
Jason: My father? What happened?
John: He was killed by one of his top geneticists.
Jason: What? You...can't be serious.
John: I'm sorry, Jason. It's the truth.
Jason: Who killed...him?
John: His name is Dr. Frank Mendel. I'm sure you know about him.
Jason: Yeah. Dad told me.
John: Look, if there is anything I can do for you...
Jason: No. That's fine, Mr. Sanders.
John: I'll make preparations for his funeral.
Jason: Ummm, Mr. Sanders. I would like to be alone for a while.
John: Sure. Anything for my best employee of the month.
Jason: Thanks, John. I'm going to call up my mom about the news.
John: What about your sister, Sharon?
Jason: No, sir. I wouldn't want a mutie like her to visit Dad's funeral.
Secret Warehouse....
Sheryl: Are you ok?
Dr. Frank: Yes, I'm fine.
Sheryl: Well...I'm glad you're alright.
Dr. Frank: Sheryl...We need to find Mr. Sinister's Lair.
Sheryl: What? You're kidding.
Dr. Frank: Do I ever make a joke?
Sheryl: No, I guess not. But why do you want to find his place? Besides, he's already dead. Isn't he?
Dr. Frank: It's true that he may gone but there is something I want to know.
Sheryl: Know what?
Dr. Frank: About me.
Sheryl: Oh...ok.
Dr. Frank: I want to know if I'm really the freak. There was a mutant named Father Kurt Wagner. He used to tell that I was normal.
Sheryl: I see.
Dr. Frank: Yes, he was the one who saved me. Even from my father who used to abuse me.
Sheryl: I'm sorry to hear it.
Dr. Frank: It was a long time back. I always wanted to be with my mother the most. Because she loves me. She used to...until her illness.
Sheryl: Frank, we have to get out of here.
Dr. Frank: Oh yes, I forgot.
Sheryl: Are you sure that you can walk by yourself?
Dr. Frank: I'm better than ever, Miss Sheryl.
Sheryl: I prefer you wouldn't call me miss.
Dr. Frank: I was just kidding.
Sheryl: Wow. You made a joke for the first time.
Dr. Frank: I never expected myself to say that.
Sheryl: Frank, you also told me about Surveillance. I understand he was your friend. But...was that necessary?
Dr. Frank: Yes. It was the only way. Although, we would have let him come with us, he was injured in a car accident.
Sheryl: Yeah, I know. He couldn't walk.
Dr. Frank: Anyways, let's move out of here.
Sheryl: Where are we going?
Dr. Frank: A place where it all started. God's Town.
Sheryl: God's Town? But that town was abandoned some years ago. No one even lives there.
Dr. Frank: I know. But I think, I know where Mr. Sinsiter's secret lair is.
Sheryl: How do you...Oh, you have accessed his secret database files.
Dr. Frank: You're right. We're going there to get some answers.
Purifier base....
Purifier: Father Mendel, have you heard of the news?
Father Mendel: News? No, I do not watch television.
Purifier: It's about the death of your former apprentice.
Father Mendel: WHAT?
Purifier: Yes, he's dead. I'm sorry.
Father Mendel: No...Kevin is dead? But who...killed him?
Purifier: Our former Purifier was working at the MRD headquarters. He told us everything.
Father Mendel: I see.
Purifier: Yes. But you wouldn't like it when I'm about to say.
Father Mendel: Then say it!
Purifier: It's your son.
MRD Headquarters....Control Room
CLICK! CLICK! CLICK!
Jason: Is this all you had?
MRD soldier: Yes, Jason. We managed to capture this footage just before the mutant, Surveillance was killed.
Jason: I see.
MRD soldier: Yes.
Jason: Have you found Dr. Frank yet?
MRD soldier: Not yet. But we're trying to search for him.
Jason: Who is this lady who went with him?
MRD soldier: Her name is Sheryl Crawford. She works as Dr. Frank's lab assistant on the experiments.
Jason: What kind of experiments?
MRD soldier: Well...it's classified.
Jason: Just tell me!
MRD soldier: Alright. Dr. Frank has been working on a project called Evolution X.
Jason: Evolution X?
MRD soldier: Yes. You could say it's a top-secret superhuman project.
Jason: Tell me more.
MRD soldier: Dr. Frank has developed the Evolution X formula that can give people their new powers.
Jason: I see. How did he do it?
MRD soldier: Well...I'm not sure. I'm just a soldier. But I heard rumors that he found an extraodinary finding.
Jason: Finding? As in, he found something like archaeologically?
MRD soldier: Yes. But we have transported it to our headquarters. It's kept secretly in suspended animation.
Jason: What are you saying? Dr. Frank has found someone or something?
MRD soldier: It could be possible be a creature but I heard it's an ape-man from millions of years ago.
Jason: You mean a Neantherdal?
MRD soldier: Yes, I...guess.
Jason: Hmmm. Did my father sent you to find this...ape-man?
MRD soldier: Yes. We were sent to escort the frozen ape-man to this place.
Jason: Show me.
MRD soldier: I beg your pardon?
Jason: Show me where the location of the ape-man. I want also to see this Evolution X formula that you mentioned.
MRD soldier: But...Jason. I wasn't allowed to gain access codes to that area. Including the others.
Jason: Then who has the authority?
MRD soldier: Only the board directors are in charge of the secret operation.
Jason: I want to speak to them.
MRD soldier: Ok? But...
Jason: No buts. Do you hear me? I also want you to hunt down Dr. Frank and kill him.
MRD soldier: I'm sorry to tell you...but you're not part of this team.
Jason: I am now.
