His call to action for the Alphas has touched on the basest human instinct: fear of that which it does not understand. This is a common theme running through many shows, especially ones about evolutionary matters, (I\u2019m looking at you, <em>X-Men<\/em>). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">The concept of fearing that which we do not understand, however, has several questions attached. Are we really afraid of things that are new to us, or are we afraid of how drawn we are to them? Are we jealous of those things that are greater than us, so to speak, and so we manifest our frustrations as fear? Are we afraid of the facets of us those things reveal? Civilization in general has always struck me as one of humanity\u2019s biggest defense mechanisms and indeed, it is the exact opposite of what we call \u201chuman nature\u201d. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Most would have us believe that at our cores, we are nothing more than animals and, if you follow the theory of evolutions, that would be the case. We are afraid of what we were, (animals), because we consider ourselves to be greater now that we can think and reason, and consequently we put on the mask of \u2018civilization\u2019 to hide from what could be our true instincts. (Yet, as irony would have it, we still call our animal side \u2018human nature\u2019).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Binghamton\" href=\"http:\/\/www.syfy.com\/alphas\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28939\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Binghamton.jpg\" alt=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Binghamton\" width=\"640\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Binghamton.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Binghamton-256x134.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Binghamton-320x167.jpg 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Binghamton-480x251.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Consequently, we are afraid of what we could become if we sought to use more than ten percent of our brains. Doctor Rosen mentioned in a previous episode that Alphas are nothing more than humans who have access to more than ten percent. This concept frightens us because it gives \u2018power\u2019 to those who we once considered our equals. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Again, however &#8211; are we afraid or jealous? Are we afraid of being hurt or afraid of the competitive and envious sides that power brings out in each of us? If our DNA is meant for us to survive, then seeking power would be at the goal of every human &#8211; and once it is revealed we have the ability to gain power we are driven to stop at nothing until we get it. This is a hard theme to process and accept because we, as humans, do not like to address such basic issues of our minds, (what Freud would call the id). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">We are almost incapable of understand exactly what we are capable of as individuals, and Alphas represent a step towards that understanding. Which means, in the end, that Doctor Rosen\u2019s speech could only bring about <em>one<\/em> outcome: silence. He asked for transparency. He got opacity.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Eight months of it, to be honest.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Rosen in Torment\" href=\"http:\/\/www.syfy.com\/alphas\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28944\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-in-Torment.jpg\" alt=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Rosen in Torment\" width=\"640\" height=\"336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-in-Torment.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-in-Torment-256x134.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-in-Torment-320x168.jpg 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-in-Torment-480x252.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Doctor Rosen is in hell, the psychiatrist now the patient. Sadly, he exhibits the same attitude and conversational topics that we associate with those that are mad &#8211; and it is twisted to watch him play off the woman who is meant to help him. As he heads back to his cell, however, we can see that he is truly tormented. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">On the outside, people think he is insane, with delusions of grandeur and persecution, but we as the audience can see beyond that. Doctor Rosen is almost shamanistic in his emotions, with the ability to feel what others are feeling, (instinctively more than literally, however I suspect \u2018literally\u2019 may be part of the case here). He is suffering from his eight months of imprisonment, especially since he is unable to help those Alphas he silently thinks of as family, and unable to touch those he knows are in need of help. The pressure is evident as the scene closes, and we are left hanging in worry and panic for him.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">In a touching nod to the pilot, we are happily reintroduced to Cameron Hicks, (<a title=\"Click on this link to follow Warren Christie on Twitter!\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/HWarrenChristie\" target=\"_blank\">Warren Christie<\/a>), in a supermarket &#8211; the very place we first met him, (however now he has hair.

He is not working alone, however. Out of all the Alphas to team up with him, Fate chose Bill Harken, <a title=\"Click on this link to follow Malik Yoba on Twitter!\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/MalikYoba\" target=\"_blank\">(Malik Yoba<\/a>). Of course, it makes perfect sense that these two would team up. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">At the start of season one, Bill was the man with the plan, the cop with the bad record, the man who did not like surprises or unpredictability. Cameron, as the lone wolf, was the wild card, the capricious hair trigger set to go off at any moment. He was the action of Bill\u2019s hot-headed mind. As their world slowly fell apart with Rosen\u2019s disappearance, Bill and Cameron have banded together to remain the only Alphas to really continue his work. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Bill Harken\" href=\"http:\/\/www.syfy.com\/alphas\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28945\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Bill-Harken.jpg\" alt=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Bill Harken\" width=\"640\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Bill-Harken.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Bill-Harken-256x133.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Bill-Harken-320x166.jpg 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Bill-Harken-480x249.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Of course, they are also the two Alphas who remain weakened by Jonas Englin, (<a title=\"Click on this link to learn more about Garret Dillahunt!\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0226813\/\" target=\"_blank\">Garret Dillahunt<\/a>). Cameron\u2019s hyperkinesis is spotty at best, and Bill\u2019s adrenaline-fueled rages continue to weaken his heart. When the two go up against three rather dangerous Alphas, (one word: OW.), they only manage to grab one of them &#8211; the only one, in fact, who is completely helpless. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">They return her for questioning as we see that they are now in the service of Nathan Clay, (<a title=\"Click on this link to learn more about Mahershalalhashbaz Ali!\" href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0991810\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mahershalalhashbaz Ali<\/a>), who has taken over the Alpha HQ. On orders from him, they take the imprisoned Alpha to Building 7 of Binghamton, which has (for this episode), sadly lost its personification. Within the confines, however, Bill and Cameron &#8211; as well as we audience members &#8211; receive a huge shock.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Gary Chip\" href=\"http:\/\/www.syfy.com\/alphas\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28936\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary-Chip.jpg\" alt=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Gary Chip\" width=\"640\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary-Chip.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary-Chip-256x132.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary-Chip-320x166.jpg 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary-Chip-480x249.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Settled in the main room of Binghamton\u2019s Building 7, dressed in the customary red jumpsuit and immobile with the pacifier chip, is Gary Bell, (<a title=\"Click on this link to follow Ryan Cartwright on Twitter!\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/RyanCartwright\" target=\"_blank\">Ryan Cartwright<\/a>). <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Gary\" href=\"http:\/\/www.syfy.com\/alphas\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28937\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary.jpg\" alt=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Gary\" width=\"640\" height=\"332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary-256x132.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary-320x166.jpg 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Gary-480x249.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">The implications and horror of what this could mean for the transducer\u2019s fragile mind is almost sickening. Bill and Cameron immediately begin questioning how he got put in there, and the answer reveals that Gary\u2019s special needs were not taken into account when he started working with the NSA. Cut off from Doctor Rosen and thrown into a high-risk job with a bunch of strangers, it seems amazing that Gary continued to function in his role. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">He did eventually succumb, and now he is trapped, unfairly, horribly. Bill and Cameron do their best to break him out, but he remains unresponsive to them. Whether it is because his mind has been broken or because he is consumed with fury remains unknown, but Bill does everything he can to break through. We have suspected that there is an intense bond between Bill and Gary all through season one, and here we see just how powerful it is.

She had that haven with Doctor Rosen &#8211; and no more. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Rosen and Rachel Find Nina\" href=\"http:\/\/www.syfy.com\/alphas\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-28940\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-and-Rachel-Find-Nina.jpg\" alt=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Rosen and Rachel Find Nina\" width=\"640\" height=\"336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-and-Rachel-Find-Nina.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-and-Rachel-Find-Nina-256x134.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-and-Rachel-Find-Nina-320x168.jpg 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rosen-and-Rachel-Find-Nina-480x252.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Whatever happened between her and Cameron seems a little one-sided, (maybe it has a basis in that mop he is trying call hair on the top of his head?). She is cold and distant to him, and Cameron only seems hurt and guilty around her. Hopefully we will find out what happened to them &#8211; and get them back together, (because frankly, they are awesome for each other).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Last season, one of my recurring questions was just how much power Doctor Rosen had over his Alphas. This season opener has revealed much about that. Without him they are lost, frightened, and retreating to their own devices. Bill and Cameron continue his work. Nina has reverted to her old ways. Gary has become a a prisoner of Binghamton. But perhaps saddest of all is the beautiful Rachel Pirzad, (<a title=\"Click on this link to follow Azita Ghanizada on Twitter!\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/#!\/AzitaGhanizada\" target=\"_blank\">Azita Ghanizada<\/a>). We learn that she has gone into some kind of seclusion, hiding herself in her room, refusing to see anyone or even leave as though she is no longer able to control her senses. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Rachel in Torment 2\" href=\"http:\/\/www.syfy.com\/alphas\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-28941\" src=\"http:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rachel-in-Torment-2.jpg\" alt=\"Alphas S201 - Wake Up Call - Rachel in Torment 2\" width=\"640\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rachel-in-Torment-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rachel-in-Torment-2-256x133.jpg 256w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rachel-in-Torment-2-320x167.jpg 320w, https:\/\/wormholeriders.net\/alphas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/07\/Alphas-S201-Wake-Up-Call-Rachel-in-Torment-2-480x250.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Doctor Rosen for her &#8211; for many of the Alphas &#8211; was literally the reason some of them were hanging on to sanity and now with him being gone we can see the glue holding them all together is melting. It is my hope that part of the season will be devoted to their healing process and their learning to live without him &#8211; with him. But the writers may have a different idea about that.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 13pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Calibri';\">Rosen\u2019s almost psychic ability comes true when he is pulled out of the psychiatric hospital and then reunited with his Alphas.
