Episode 3: "LONG WAY FROM HOME"
Synopsis
Chris and Leland, disguised as cleaners, infiltrated Skinner's house but their search yielded no clues. Simultaneously, Axel and Doug sought out Doug's former mentor, Claude, who had previously worked with Skinner. Claude, now homeless, provided crucial information, revealing that Skinner's grandmother might be in Istanbul. Acting on this lead, Axel and Leland ventured into the most perilous district of Istanbul, where they were promptly encircled by a group of local thugs.
About "LAZARUS"
Story
The year is 2052.
The world seemed to be on the verge of unprecedented peace and stability, and the painkiller drug 'Hapna' developed by a lauded neuroscientist Dr. Skinner has had a lot to do with it.
Hailed as a "miracle drug" with no side effects, Hapna spread across the globe, freeing humanity from pain.
However, Dr. Skinner, the drug's creator, suddenly vanished without a trace, his whereabouts unknown to all.
Three years later, he resurfaces as a demon hellbent on bringing about the world's destruction.
Hapna, it turns out, was a trap—a drug designed to trigger fatal symptoms in its users exactly three years after consumption.
"You have 30 days. If you can find my location within that time, humanity might survive."
The only hope for salvation lies in using the single vaccine Skinner possesses.
He challenges the world: if you want it, come and find me. A team of five agents, "Lazarus," has been gathered from all over the world to counter Skinner's plot. Can they save humanity?
And what is Skinner's true purpose?
