Cal seems to think the plane Callings will stop.
You don't?
I think it's bigger than that.

I wish I could protect Cal from all of this.
It really hit home,
how much fear and hatred there is out there.
That woman had so much venom.

Maybe if she knew what miracles you guys are,
she wouldn't be so scared.
You mean if she knew about the Callings?
Well, if it were me,

Since they've returned,

I now realize that we -- we all belong.

Vance: You set up your own surveillance.
See? I told you she could help.
What's he doing?
Siphoning samples of my vials so I wouldn't notice.
You know this guy? Dr. Mathews.
But however he's involved, he's not the leak.
How do you know?
I only told one person about that vial.
My psychiatrist, who Mathews introduced me to --
Dr. Ellen Regier.
I'm sorry, Saanvi. I really am.
We never should've kept you in the dark.
Kudos to your audacity, but now the Major has your findings,
the ramifications of which I can't even begin to describe.
Those vials were fake.
It'll take them weeks to figure it out.
You set up a trap?
Oh, she is a much better spy than you, Stone.
How is Dr. Regier involved in all of this?
Do you have a description?
Alright. Pretty much every top-secret-security-cleared

There.
That's her.
