Unaired episode

This episode was originally scheduled to be the 6th episode after the Pilot and was appears to be principally a Jaime/Sarah Corvus story.. The episode pick's up storylines from the previous episode,. 'Faceoff' which ended up as episode 4 in the airing schedule.

However, after Glen Morgan left the show in early September and Jason katims joined the production team, and the direction of the show was re-eavluated, 'The Journey' succumbed to the same fate as 'Birds', and was discarded.Strangely enough, Sarah Corvus has not featured heavily in a Jaime/Sarah storyline since episdoe 3 'Sisterhood'. Sarah was seen briefly in next episode, 'Faceoff' but at time of writing has been seen in the subsequent 3 storylines, nor has Dr.Anthros.

The below was taken was various sides released for the casting of 'The Journey' and gives an insight to the plot for the episode as it relates to Jaime and Sarah working together to find a cure for their 5-year lifespan.

Episode #106 - 'The Journey'

New characters in this episode include: Carl, 'Becca's boyfirend; Dr. Demarcus Childs

'Becca gets hot and heavy in the apartment with Carl!

Plot involves Sarah AND Jaime meeting Dr.Childs at his house, which appears dishevlled, the coach littered with newspapers. Both seem to be there of their own freewill and working together. In contrast to the state of the living room, there is an immacualtely kept lab in the basement of the house.

Something happens earlier in the episode to the above meeting, and Jaime recognises a 'pipe' in an ashtray in TV dinner tray. Some kind of drugs paraphenalia, due to the bits of aluminum foil containing brown chunks near it - 'pre-made hits' says the script.

Childs used to work with Anthros, as a researcher, but left because it was 'dangerous' 'removing an Inhibitor.When Jaime askes why it was dangerous, Childs says "It would have meant the end. Of everything"

The Inhibitor is something to do limiting Jaime and Sarah's life-span to 5 years [As brought up in the previous episode, 'Faceoff'], and their being 'saved' threatens certain people, which sarah finds hard to beleive "...how can the two of us being saved possibly threaten anyone?"

Child knows Sarah of old, something to do with an' illness' she had [drug addiction?]

Child's compares Jaime and Sarah to wild rabbits which ravaged the Australia ecosystem, after being introduced into the wild, 'against God's will, and they destroyed everything they came into contact with, plants, species, etc. Jaime says "And those like us... Bionic candidates... we're the rabbits, is that it? And if we live past five years, somehow that will mean the end of everything?"

It looks like Sarah and Jaime are there to get their Inhibitors removed, or perhaps neutralised.

Jaime and Sarah have the Flash Drive with them, which belonged to Matthew Stevens [again, last episode, 'Faceoff']. They give it to Child.

We learn that the anthrocytes in the Bionic candidates blood are timed to mutate, eventually going rogue and killing themselves. They start out helping to heal the person, but eventually do the opposite and end up killing them by casuing damage at the sub-cellular level. Child's compares it to a normal person getting cancer.

The anthrocytes can be reprogrammed to stop their destructive mission, if they are reached in time.

Childs was working on a smaller version of the anthrocyte 'machine', less than 50 nanometers - NANOTECH PROXY SUB 50 -- VERSION 8.

Childs stopped his research after the death of a woman, possibly his wife or daughter, most likely from cancer.

Childs has one vial of the fluid which will prolong Sarah and Jaime's lifespan... the only trouble is he only has enough to treat one of them!

Jonas and Jae have a fight, and Jae breaks Jonas' hand. Jae pins Jonas down, and grips Jonas neck in a hold which nearly makes him black out. When Jonas recovers, Jae is gone. This may be something to do with Sarah escaping the Berkut complex last epsidoe... did Jae let her go?
