"Cassandra Complex" is the third episode of Season 1 of 12 Monkeys. It first aired at 9:00 p.m. on January 30, 2015 on Syfy.
A search for the location of the virus leads Cole to 2014, when Haiti once proved a devastating moment in Dr. Railly's life.
In 2015, Cole is teaching Cassandra how to shoot a gun. Cassandra is called down to the police station where they are investigating Jennifer Goines’ abduction from the hospital. She gives the police a description of the man with the scar who took Goines. While talking to the police she sees a photo of the lab workers who Goines’ was arrested for murdering. Cassandra recognizes one of them as Henri Toussaint, a doctor who she had worked with during an epidemic in Haiti.
Cassandra returns to the CDC, the same building where Cole found her remains in the future. Jules, her former supervisor invites her to come back to work. She demurs, and instead asks after Dr. Toussaint, claiming she needs his help on a patient. She learns that Toussaint was shot and killed in 2014 right around the time she left Haiti. Cole decides to travel back to 2014 to talk to Toussaint and locate the Night Room. Cassandra warns him to stay away from the earlier version of her.
Cole returns to 2043, where he is debriefed by Jones, who agrees with his idea of sending him back to Haiti to interview Toussaint. Ramse tells Cole that they’ve found signs of scavengers near the facility. Ramse also has words with Whitley, one of the soldiers working for Jones. Jones tells Cole that there were reports of unusual solar flare activity during the part of 2014 they are sending him back to and that this could interfere with him once he travels there. She also warns him against interacting with Cassandra in 2014, lest it ”fracture her timeline”.
In 2014, Cassandra argues with Aaron about going to Haiti. She insist that she can help, but he worries that she is endangering herself over her belief in the pandemic which Cole told her about. She brushes off his concerns, determined to go anyway. In Haiti she meets Jules and Henri Toussaint. When an armed man tries to force them to treat his daughter, Cassandra faces him down. She recommends quarantining the area to prevent any escape of the disease. Jules recommends that she and Toussaint get some rest before they begin working.
That night, Cassandra and Toussaint bond over drinks. He praises her bravery but she brushes it off, saying that death is inevitable. He tells her how the death of his sister from measles inspired him to become a doctor, but that he has learned that it is impossible to control nature, only to bend it. The two of them kiss, and have sex.
In 2043, Ramse and Whitley patrol the perimeter of the facility where Whitley shares his low opinion of scavengers and Ramse shares his low opinion of soldiers. Whitley is attacked by a woman. He wrestles her off a points his gun at her, but is knocked out by Ramse.
