SYNOPSIS:

Lieutenant Colonel Erika Dresden is a widowed black ops commander for a non-existent, one-person military unit that raises a weaponized nanovirus called, Allegiance. Dresden recruits a non-traditional team in response to a suspicious distress call from the original testing facility called, the Hive. The team includes Doctor Dupree - the inventor of Allegiance’s medicinal predecessor and the Chaplain - a company holy man and double agent sent to perform Last Rites. During the descent to the Hive, Chaplain subtly reveals to Dresden that her missing son is there as part of the experiment. With this news, all mission planning come undone. Planet-side, four informal teams fight to survive: Dresden looking for her son and trying to understand who the Chaplain really is; The original sniper team; A rag tag team looking for Dresden; and Dupree, testing Allegiance under a lie. When Dresden discovers Allegiance has evolved into the Emerged and has her son, she fights to escape to Level Two to find him on Level Ten. The pilot concludes with a cliffhanger that sets the series’s story arcs: The Emerged continues repurposing every living and non-living thing in its ten level path to return Dresden to its family; Dresden’s recruits look to help or kill her; The Chaplain killing all who stop him from understanding Dresden’s secret immunity to Allegiance; the sniper team making the original mission rendezvous in the overrun Hive; Dupree’s discovery about Allegiance as the disease and the cure, and Dresden’s quest to save her son.
