Storyline

The Powells must join together to save JJ, who's been kidnapped, courtesy of Mrs. X, and forced to solve an enigma that could lead to the permanence of the trilsettum's effects. Meanwhile, Joshua reconnects with Katie and discovers that he's about to become a father, and George's fate hangs in the balance as a prisoner aboard a plane that's quickly spiraling out of control and about to crash.

Quotes

Helen Burton: If I had time, I would wait for than little twit your son knocked up to give birth. A baby born with trilsettum in its D.N.A. would provide all the answers we need to create permanence, but I dislike both children and being patient; so, I have a backup plan.
Dr. Dayton King: And what is that?
Helen Burton: I'm afraid that information can only be shared with people who still work here, but I assure you, my methods will be far less delicate than yours.
