T KNOW WHAT I'D DO WITHOUT HIM. WAIT. SO YOU GUYS ARE TOGETHER, THEN? [laughs] WELL, I DON'T' WANT TO KEEP DEKLIN WAITING. NOW THAT WE BOTH KNOW YOU'RE NOT JEALOUS. LEXA, WE GOTTA TALK. [sound of shower running] IS THERE ANYWHERE IN THIS ROCK WHERE A GIRL CAN GET A LITTLE PRIVACY? IT BETTER BE GOOD. WHAT? I STARTED TRACING ALL THE CITIES THAT THE CIRCUS HAS PASSED THROUGH, EVERYWHERE FROM BRIDGEPORT TO LA JOLLA. OKAY... AND? AND, UH, WELL, MUTANTS HAVE DISAPPEARED FROM ALMOST EVERY TOWN THAT THEY'VE BEEN TO. WELL, ISN'T THIS WHAT THE CIRCUS IS ALL ABOUT? OFFERING PROTECTION FOR MUTANTS ON THE RUN? NO? YEAH, BUT THESE PEOPLE WERE PEOPLE ALREADY IN THE MUTANT UNDERGROUND. I MEAN, THEY WERE, UH... THEY HAD FAMILIES, THEY WERE ESTABLISHED, THEY HAD NOTHING TO RUN FROM. OH, AND... THE THING IS THAT ONCE THEY JOIN UP, THEIR FAMILIES NEVER HEAR FROM THEM AGAIN. IT'S LIKE THEY VANISH OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH. SO WHAT ARE YOU TELLING ME? THESE PEOPLE NEVER LEFT THIS PLACE? ALL EXCEPT FOR ONE. MIKE ROBSON. HE'S A CANINE FERAL. HE DISAPPEARED SIX MONTHS AGO, TURNED BACK UP A MONTH LATER. HE'S THE ONE MUTANT WHO SOMEHOW DECIDED TO LEAVE THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH. OH. SO WHAT DO YOU SAY WE TAKE LITTLE DOG BOY HERE FOR A WALK, THEN? YEAH. THANK YOU. I'M GONNA GO PUT SOME CLOTHES ON. YEAH. HEY, DEKLIN, WHERE YOU AT? DEKLIN? YEAH... TONY...? OH, MY GOD. FOUND WHAT YOU WERE LOOKING FOR? UGH... UH... UHH... BUT I FIGURED, SINCE HE'S A CANINE FERAL, THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE HE'D COME BACK TO HIS OLD STOMPING GROUNDS. YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR MIND. REALLY? THERE'S AN URBAN MYTH IN THESE PARTS, ABOUT A GUY WHO CREEPS AROUND IN DOG PARKS LATE AT NIGHT. THEY CALL HIM THE WEREWOLF. OKAY, YOU KNOW I'M NOT CRAZY ABOUT DOGS TO BEGIN WITH, RIGHT? THIS FULL MOON OUTSIDE ISN'T EXACTLY HELPING. HEY, HOLD ON. HUH? [growling] GOOD BOY. EASY... GOOD DOG. IT'S ALL RIGHT. IT'S OKAY. DOWN, BOY. [barking] GOOD BOY. IT'S ALL RIGHT. STAY DOWN. EASY!! DON'T HURT HIM. HE'S JUST PROTECTING ME. WHAT ARE YOU DOING? CALL OFF YOUR DOGS AND WE JUST MIGHT TELL YOU. [growling] SO, YOU SPENT SOME TIME AT THE CIRCUS. YEAH, SO? OH, YOU'RE LOOKING FOR SOMEBODY, IS THAT IT? SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I CAN'T HELP YOU. WHY NOT? DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU THAT WHOEVER YOU MIGHT BE LOOKING FOR JUST DOESN'T WANT TO BE FOUND? FOR MANY OF US, THAT CIRCUS OFFERS THE ONLY WAY OUT. IF THAT CIRCUS IS AS GOOD AS YOU SAY HOW COME YOU ONLY LASTED A MONTH? GUESS IT WASN'T FOR ME. WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN? LIKE I SAID: IT WASN'T FOR ME. [whisper] LOOK, JESS, I THINK WE'RE BARKING UP THE WRONG TREE HERE. UM, I'M SORRY TO HAVE DISTURBED YOU. WE'RE GOING TO GO. JUST, UM... ONE MORE QUESTION. WHY'D YOU JOIN THE CIRCUS? IT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA AT THE TIME. SHE MOVES EXQUISITELY, DON'T YOU THINK? I SUPPOSE. THE REAL TEST WILL BE TO SEE HOW SHE FARES ON THE TRAPEZE. SHE'LL BE SPLENDID. OH, THAT WAS AMAZING! WELL, PERHAPS YOU'RE READY FOR SOMETHING A LITTLE MORE CHALLENGING. [laughs] DON'T BE NERVOUS. YOU'LL BE FINE. YOU READY? I WAS BORN READY. [laughs] [Jess on comlink] SHALIMAR? DIANE, WHY DON'T YOU CHECK ON SHALIMAR'S COSTUME, AND MAKE SURE IT'S READY FOR THE SHOW TONIGHT? OF COURSE. WHAT'S UP, JESS? HOW ARE THINGS GOING UNDER THE BIG TOP? WELL, IF I EVER GET TIRED OF SAVING THE WORLD, I ALWAYS HAVE A JOB AS AN ACROBAT. ANY SIGN OF TONY? UH, NOT YET, BUT BRENNAN'S GONE TO LOOK FOR HIM. OH, WELL, WHEN YOU'RE DONE PLAYING LADY ON THE FLYING TRAPEZE, YOU MIGHT WANT TO GO GIVE HIM A HAND. THINGS HAVE TURNED UP A NOTCH. I NEED YOU TO FIND TONY AND GET OUT OF THERE, OKAY? OKAY. OH-HO... WOW. MUST FEEL NICE TO DO WHAT COMES NATURALLY. YOU HAVE NO IDEA. CAN I... UH... CAN I TAKE YOU ON A LITTLE PRIVATE TOUR? I FEEL LIKE I NEED TO GET READY FOR THE SHOW TONIGHT. OH, PLEASE, PLEASE.
