1
00:01:14,661 --> 00:01:17,802
Okay, okay.
2
00:01:17,906 --> 00:01:19,701
I'm awake.
3
00:01:36,925 --> 00:01:38,513
Good morning, Joe.
4
00:01:38,616 --> 00:01:41,205
You have several items
on your calendar today.
5
00:01:41,309 --> 00:01:42,827
Would you like me
to read them to you?
6
00:01:42,931 --> 00:01:44,105
No. I'm good.
7
00:01:45,796 --> 00:01:47,591
You have a request
from Ash's assistant.
8
00:01:47,694 --> 00:01:50,697
Coffee at Old World Roasters.
9:30 a.m.
9
00:01:50,801 --> 00:01:53,562
Confirm that
and send a note to Maxine.
10
00:01:53,666 --> 00:01:55,702
Ask her to mine the fort
till I get in.
11
00:01:55,806 --> 00:01:58,015
Reconfiguring.
12
00:01:58,119 --> 00:01:59,879
All set.
13
00:02:13,582 --> 00:02:15,515
Yeah.
14
00:02:27,562 --> 00:02:29,564
Hm.
15
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,162
First time in a bookstore?
16
00:02:42,542 --> 00:02:43,716
Yeah.
17
00:02:43,819 --> 00:02:44,958
No.
18
00:02:48,790 --> 00:02:50,240
Beautiful detail.
19
00:02:51,724 --> 00:02:53,967
I was joking.
20
00:03:04,668 --> 00:03:06,083
I mean,
personally, I prefer
21
00:03:06,187 --> 00:03:07,602
what's written
inside on the pages,
22
00:03:07,705 --> 00:03:10,467
but, uh, you know,
to each their own.
23
00:03:14,333 --> 00:03:16,058
Do you like coffee?
24
00:03:16,162 --> 00:03:18,302
Oh, everyone likes coffee.
25
00:03:19,407 --> 00:03:20,891
What's your name?
26
00:03:23,204 --> 00:03:25,413
Uh, Joe.
27
00:03:25,516 --> 00:03:26,414
Yours?
28
00:03:33,559 --> 00:03:35,561
Coming?
29
00:03:35,664 --> 00:03:36,458
Now?
30
00:03:36,562 --> 00:03:38,667
You got a better time?
31
00:03:38,771 --> 00:03:40,048
No, uh...
32
00:03:41,843 --> 00:03:43,948
Oh, Maxine, are you,
uh, okay if I, uh...
33
00:03:44,052 --> 00:03:45,536
Yeah.
34
00:03:46,572 --> 00:03:48,574
It's Ash, by the way.
35
00:03:48,677 --> 00:03:50,438
Ash.
36
00:03:50,541 --> 00:03:51,887
Okay.
37
00:03:55,926 --> 00:03:58,239
So you've read that stuff.
38
00:03:58,342 --> 00:04:00,033
I have. Yeah.
39
00:04:01,138 --> 00:04:02,760
Makes you think.
40
00:04:04,521 --> 00:04:08,352
Without man in his potential
for moral progress,
41
00:04:08,456 --> 00:04:12,770
the whole of reality would be a
mere wilderness thing,
42
00:04:12,874 --> 00:04:16,602
in vain,
and have no final purpose.
43
00:04:16,705 --> 00:04:18,328
Hm.
44
00:04:18,431 --> 00:04:20,364
Final purpose.
45
00:04:22,470 --> 00:04:24,817
I don't know about that.
46
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,577
Maybe we have what we have
47
00:04:26,681 --> 00:04:30,443
and you do your best
with it day by day.
48
00:04:30,547 --> 00:04:33,653
Yeah. Yeah, sure.
49
00:04:33,757 --> 00:04:36,932
Oh, for me,
it just makes things feel...
50
00:04:37,036 --> 00:04:38,831
richer, somehow.
51
00:04:43,663 --> 00:04:46,494
Take a picture,
it'll last longer.
52
00:04:46,597 --> 00:04:48,427
Oh, that's--
that's actually a good idea.
53
00:04:48,530 --> 00:04:50,877
- Hm?
- This the way I'll have proof.
54
00:04:50,981 --> 00:04:52,362
Proof of what?
55
00:04:52,465 --> 00:04:55,468
Of a beautiful woman
hanging out with me.
56
00:05:17,663 --> 00:05:19,941
Okay, MEL. I'm out.
57
00:05:20,044 --> 00:05:21,563
System is now armed.
58
00:05:21,667 --> 00:05:23,531
You have 30 seconds to depart.
59
00:05:23,634 --> 00:05:25,429
Have a great day, Joe.
60
00:05:25,533 --> 00:05:26,844
You, too, pal.
61
00:05:53,906 --> 00:05:55,045
My brother!
62
00:05:55,148 --> 00:05:56,495
How are you this beautiful day?
63
00:05:56,598 --> 00:05:57,944
I'm doing well, Oliver.
Yourself?
64
00:05:58,048 --> 00:06:01,223
- Eh, no complaints.
- I'm off to see Ash.
65
00:06:01,327 --> 00:06:02,535
Ah! Lucky man.
66
00:06:02,639 --> 00:06:04,503
Yeah.
Don't I know it?
67
00:06:08,610 --> 00:06:10,509
There you go.
68
00:06:13,684 --> 00:06:15,997
Oh, I'm supposed to guess who.
69
00:06:16,100 --> 00:06:17,654
- Mm-hmm.
- Okay.
70
00:06:17,757 --> 00:06:20,070
Well, it's either
my beautiful girlfriend
71
00:06:20,173 --> 00:06:23,660
who I'm meeting
on this wonderful morning.
72
00:06:23,763 --> 00:06:24,868
Or...
73
00:06:24,971 --> 00:06:27,318
it's my other,
sexier girlfriend
74
00:06:27,422 --> 00:06:30,045
from the bad part of town.
75
00:06:30,149 --> 00:06:32,393
Oh, you! Hi.
76
00:06:36,397 --> 00:06:38,019
Hmm.
77
00:06:42,748 --> 00:06:44,094
What can I get for you?
78
00:06:44,197 --> 00:06:45,475
I'll have a cappuccino, please.
79
00:06:45,578 --> 00:06:47,131
You got it.
80
00:06:48,305 --> 00:06:49,755
You have to work after?
81
00:06:50,583 --> 00:06:53,344
- Yeah.
- You know, I would love
82
00:06:53,448 --> 00:06:55,588
to know what that is.
83
00:06:55,692 --> 00:06:58,419
You know what they say
about curiosity.
84
00:07:00,559 --> 00:07:03,216
- No.
- Really?
85
00:07:04,701 --> 00:07:06,150
Oh.
86
00:07:07,324 --> 00:07:10,189
You adore me.
87
00:07:12,812 --> 00:07:14,952
I do.
88
00:07:16,471 --> 00:07:19,440
So...
89
00:07:23,236 --> 00:07:25,549
...I want you to know something.
90
00:07:26,481 --> 00:07:28,379
- About?
- You.
91
00:07:28,483 --> 00:07:30,105
About you.
92
00:07:42,946 --> 00:07:45,051
Hey!
93
00:08:05,106 --> 00:08:06,694
I love you, Joe.
94
00:08:12,493 --> 00:08:15,081
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
95
00:08:15,185 --> 00:08:17,187
Ash...
96
00:08:18,602 --> 00:08:22,364
Ash, you surprised me.
That's all.
97
00:08:24,263 --> 00:08:25,816
I need to tell you something.
98
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,335
Anything.
99
00:08:29,164 --> 00:08:30,234
I'm not from here.
100
00:08:30,338 --> 00:08:32,409
I know.
You're from Bridgewater.
101
00:08:32,513 --> 00:08:37,138
No. I mean,
I'm not from... here.
102
00:08:47,389 --> 00:08:48,805
No.
103
00:08:53,292 --> 00:08:54,914
Do you two know each other?
104
00:08:55,881 --> 00:08:57,917
Don't.
105
00:09:02,853 --> 00:09:06,374
No, no, no.
106
00:10:12,578 --> 00:10:14,684
MEL, shut everything down.
107
00:10:14,787 --> 00:10:16,133
This is your second week
108
00:10:16,237 --> 00:10:17,928
without leaving
the apartment, Joe.
109
00:10:18,032 --> 00:10:21,311
Are you unwell?
Should I call for assistance?
110
00:10:21,414 --> 00:10:23,727
Can you call Ash?
111
00:10:23,831 --> 00:10:26,212
I am not
currently able to do that.
112
00:10:26,316 --> 00:10:27,766
Hmm.
113
00:10:30,216 --> 00:10:32,011
Well, then fuck off.
114
00:10:33,254 --> 00:10:34,600
Just let me sleep.
115
00:10:56,001 --> 00:10:57,588
You have a visitor.
116
00:10:57,692 --> 00:10:58,900
Don't answer.
117
00:11:00,212 --> 00:11:01,558
It's Oliver.
118
00:11:01,662 --> 00:11:04,216
This is the third time
he's been by.
119
00:11:09,152 --> 00:11:10,463
Fine.
120
00:11:15,848 --> 00:11:18,679
Joe, are you there?
121
00:11:18,782 --> 00:11:20,163
I'm here.
122
00:11:25,478 --> 00:11:27,066
I'm here.
123
00:11:27,170 --> 00:11:32,278
Hey, man.
Uh... got the good stuff.
124
00:11:32,382 --> 00:11:33,970
Let me up?
125
00:11:39,630 --> 00:11:41,736
I hear it's better hot.
126
00:12:04,621 --> 00:12:06,036
Good?
127
00:12:09,626 --> 00:12:11,524
I can't taste anything.
128
00:12:12,733 --> 00:12:14,113
What?
129
00:12:18,428 --> 00:12:21,603
Taste. I can't-- I can't.
130
00:12:27,609 --> 00:12:28,749
I'll get it.
131
00:12:30,958 --> 00:12:32,753
Where do you keep the towels?
132
00:12:34,478 --> 00:12:35,756
Joe?
133
00:12:42,763 --> 00:12:48,182
I know it doesn't feel like it,
but you're gonna be okay.
134
00:12:51,495 --> 00:12:53,014
She's gone.
135
00:12:56,777 --> 00:12:58,019
I...
136
00:13:00,194 --> 00:13:02,541
Maybe she's in a better place.
- Oh, don't patronize me.
137
00:13:02,644 --> 00:13:05,578
Just... don't.
138
00:13:10,721 --> 00:13:12,585
Well, look, you, uh...
139
00:13:12,689 --> 00:13:15,036
You take mine.
140
00:13:15,140 --> 00:13:18,350
Come back tomorrow
with more coffee.
141
00:13:19,869 --> 00:13:23,217
But, uh, eat something, okay?
142
00:13:25,667 --> 00:13:27,117
Joe.
143
00:15:10,462 --> 00:15:11,877
Hello, Joe.
144
00:16:34,891 --> 00:16:36,444
See you soon.
145
00:16:40,103 --> 00:16:42,450
Or I won't.
Either way.
146
00:16:42,554 --> 00:16:43,693
Fucking...
147
00:17:14,586 --> 00:17:18,659
A weapon has been discharged.
Are you safe?
148
00:17:18,762 --> 00:17:20,454
Please respond, Joe.
149
00:17:20,557 --> 00:17:22,042
I am contacting
the authorities.
150
00:17:22,145 --> 00:17:24,665
- No, no, no, no!
- No, no, wait, wait, wait.
151
00:17:25,907 --> 00:17:27,599
It was an accident.
152
00:17:43,028 --> 00:17:44,202
Joe!
153
00:18:17,718 --> 00:18:19,927
Good morning, Joe.
154
00:18:20,030 --> 00:18:23,482
You have a new message
from Ash.
155
00:18:23,586 --> 00:18:25,760
Would you like me to play it?
156
00:18:47,989 --> 00:18:51,821
You have another new message
from Ash, marked urgent.
157
00:18:51,924 --> 00:18:53,547
Should I play it?
158
00:19:49,775 --> 00:19:51,018
In here.
159
00:19:58,819 --> 00:20:01,373
You okay, brother?
160
00:20:02,857 --> 00:20:04,652
You see that, right?
161
00:20:05,791 --> 00:20:07,414
Oh.
162
00:20:09,519 --> 00:20:12,073
Have you checked
any of those?
163
00:20:12,177 --> 00:20:14,144
Well, maybe it's, uh,
a message for you
164
00:20:14,248 --> 00:20:15,801
in case anything happened
to her.
165
00:20:15,905 --> 00:20:19,011
I-I thought of that,
but the screens and the, um...
166
00:20:21,911 --> 00:20:23,499
Well, what?
167
00:20:23,602 --> 00:20:25,949
You know, nothing.
It's, uh...
168
00:20:26,053 --> 00:20:27,882
shock, maybe.
169
00:20:29,850 --> 00:20:31,921
Look, go home.
170
00:20:32,024 --> 00:20:34,820
Get some rest, and then
you check the message--
171
00:20:34,924 --> 00:20:36,236
messages.
172
00:20:36,339 --> 00:20:38,548
You might get some closure.
173
00:20:38,652 --> 00:20:40,032
Would you mind
if I checked here, actually?
174
00:20:40,136 --> 00:20:42,000
I'm not sure
I want to go back yet.
175
00:20:43,898 --> 00:20:45,555
Mi casa!
176
00:20:46,453 --> 00:20:47,937
It's all yours.
177
00:21:02,745 --> 00:21:04,436
Hey, Joe.
178
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:07,853
Hey.
179
00:21:08,544 --> 00:21:12,996
If you're seeing this,
something's happened to me.
180
00:21:13,100 --> 00:21:15,033
And I might not see you again.
181
00:21:16,172 --> 00:21:18,830
For that...
182
00:21:18,933 --> 00:21:23,593
I am so, so sorry.
183
00:21:28,426 --> 00:21:31,429
I need your help.
It's important.
184
00:21:31,532 --> 00:21:33,223
It might not make sense
right away,
185
00:21:33,327 --> 00:21:35,191
but I need you to get
something for me.
186
00:21:35,295 --> 00:21:36,779
Your bookstore--
187
00:21:36,882 --> 00:21:39,540
there's a special order there
waiting for you.
188
00:21:40,955 --> 00:21:42,302
Will you help?
189
00:21:48,549 --> 00:21:50,275
Yes. Of course.
190
00:21:53,968 --> 00:21:57,386
Thank you.
Details are downloading.
191
00:21:57,489 --> 00:22:00,078
I planned for this.
192
00:22:00,181 --> 00:22:05,980
Not-- Not for... everything
that's happened,
193
00:22:06,084 --> 00:22:08,224
but for this.
194
00:22:08,328 --> 00:22:10,260
Bring the package back
to your place.
195
00:22:10,364 --> 00:22:12,401
I'll talk to you again later.
196
00:22:12,504 --> 00:22:14,195
I love you.
197
00:22:31,420 --> 00:22:33,318
We have further contact.
198
00:22:35,424 --> 00:22:37,046
We should leave it alone.
199
00:22:41,637 --> 00:22:45,157
Track him.
Let me know what he does next.
200
00:22:45,261 --> 00:22:46,607
Copy.
201
00:22:57,446 --> 00:22:58,619
Hey, boss,
are you doing okay?
202
00:22:58,723 --> 00:23:00,276
Was something
delivered for me?
203
00:23:00,380 --> 00:23:02,243
Uh, right. Yeah.
204
00:23:04,591 --> 00:23:06,627
This one's a prize.
- Thank you.
205
00:23:06,731 --> 00:23:08,111
I'll see you tomorrow?
206
00:23:09,527 --> 00:23:11,391
Uh, yeah.
Yeah, I'll let you know.
207
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,217
- He has...
- Something.
208
00:23:50,153 --> 00:23:52,328
Take him down.
209
00:23:52,432 --> 00:23:54,882
Retrieve whatever that is.
210
00:23:54,986 --> 00:23:56,228
Backup incoming.
211
00:23:57,367 --> 00:23:58,817
Copy.
212
00:24:55,149 --> 00:24:57,048
Floor?
213
00:24:57,151 --> 00:24:58,359
Same.
214
00:25:26,664 --> 00:25:28,320
What is happening?
215
00:25:31,151 --> 00:25:32,566
MEL, someone's trying
to break in!
216
00:25:32,670 --> 00:25:33,981
Should I call
the authorities?
217
00:25:35,396 --> 00:25:36,674
Knock, knock.
218
00:25:36,777 --> 00:25:39,297
- Yes!
- Contacting authorities now.
219
00:25:47,512 --> 00:25:50,170
I'm sorry, Joe.
I appear to be offline.
220
00:25:50,273 --> 00:25:51,516
Reattempting.
221
00:26:08,947 --> 00:26:12,261
Oh. Uh, uh, uh...
222
00:26:22,547 --> 00:26:24,825
Oh, fuck.
223
00:27:08,075 --> 00:27:11,285
Something's wrong.
Help me up.
224
00:27:11,389 --> 00:27:12,528
Who are you talking to?
225
00:27:12,632 --> 00:27:13,874
MEL.
226
00:27:17,464 --> 00:27:19,224
Fuck off!
227
00:27:50,739 --> 00:27:52,879
I don't understand.
228
00:27:59,713 --> 00:28:01,888
You and me both, pal.
229
00:28:18,145 --> 00:28:19,629
Joe.
230
00:28:19,733 --> 00:28:22,943
MEL, pause Ash's message.
231
00:28:23,047 --> 00:28:25,394
I'm sorry,
I don't understand.
232
00:28:25,497 --> 00:28:27,499
Could you rephrase?
233
00:28:27,603 --> 00:28:28,949
Joe?
234
00:28:33,436 --> 00:28:35,059
Hey.
235
00:28:39,719 --> 00:28:41,168
MEL, is this real?
236
00:28:41,272 --> 00:28:44,240
I'm sorry, could you
rephrase the question?
237
00:28:49,694 --> 00:28:51,351
Jesus!
238
00:28:53,215 --> 00:28:54,872
I'll explain.
239
00:29:02,949 --> 00:29:04,571
Where are you?
240
00:29:04,674 --> 00:29:06,193
I didn't mean
to be mysterious.
241
00:29:06,297 --> 00:29:08,057
It just took me a while
to hack a connection.
242
00:29:08,161 --> 00:29:10,715
And time works
a bit differently here.
243
00:29:10,819 --> 00:29:13,200
-"Here"?
- Where I'm from.
244
00:29:13,304 --> 00:29:15,755
There's, uh...
245
00:29:15,858 --> 00:29:17,446
The technology,
246
00:29:17,549 --> 00:29:20,069
it's almost impossible
to get access, but I did.
247
00:29:20,173 --> 00:29:21,795
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I saw you die.
248
00:29:21,899 --> 00:29:23,348
I saw someone kill you.
- I know.
249
00:29:23,452 --> 00:29:26,351
I know, I know, I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
250
00:29:28,008 --> 00:29:30,321
Oh, there's so much
I have to tell you.
251
00:29:30,424 --> 00:29:34,152
So much-- So much
I want to say.
252
00:29:35,291 --> 00:29:38,743
I just need to explain
a few things first.
253
00:29:38,847 --> 00:29:40,331
Is that okay?
254
00:29:46,302 --> 00:29:47,614
Okay.
255
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:55,760
Years ago, technology
made several rapid jumps--
256
00:29:55,864 --> 00:29:57,866
machine learning,
behavioral modeling,
257
00:29:57,969 --> 00:30:01,421
artificial intelligence,
ultra-realistic rendering.
258
00:30:01,524 --> 00:30:05,114
A lot of it was driven
by the entertainment industry.
259
00:30:05,218 --> 00:30:08,738
Gaming, streaming,
deep learning,
260
00:30:08,842 --> 00:30:11,155
and AI brought others--
261
00:30:11,258 --> 00:30:14,261
intelligence agencies,
special interests.
262
00:30:14,365 --> 00:30:16,988
Those interests saw
where the tech could go,
263
00:30:17,092 --> 00:30:21,786
recruited hungry young minds
like Anthony Hunter,
264
00:30:21,890 --> 00:30:23,512
a brilliant software engineer.
265
00:30:23,615 --> 00:30:25,790
He worked for Sentech,
one of the big firms.
266
00:30:25,894 --> 00:30:27,550
His day job was
data acquisition,
267
00:30:27,654 --> 00:30:29,690
gathering as much information
from the real world
268
00:30:29,794 --> 00:30:31,969
as possible,
feeding the machine,
269
00:30:32,072 --> 00:30:36,490
building models
to analyze process control.
270
00:30:36,594 --> 00:30:39,424
On the side, he was working
on his own project.
271
00:30:40,943 --> 00:30:42,289
From what we can piece
together,
272
00:30:42,393 --> 00:30:43,635
Hunter was trying
to incorporate
273
00:30:43,739 --> 00:30:45,120
all of this data into a true
274
00:30:45,223 --> 00:30:48,226
virtualized reality,
something alive,
275
00:30:48,330 --> 00:30:52,023
fed by a constant stream
of information.
276
00:30:52,127 --> 00:30:55,199
It was too big for him
to put together on his own.
277
00:30:55,302 --> 00:30:58,374
He couldn't get to
a stable build until...
278
00:31:13,493 --> 00:31:16,013
...he met someone,
another coder,
279
00:31:16,116 --> 00:31:18,256
apparently with
similar interests.
280
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,293
A new mentor
281
00:31:20,396 --> 00:31:22,743
who helped the final pieces
fall into place.
282
00:32:14,795 --> 00:32:17,522
The first DU.
283
00:32:20,387 --> 00:32:22,113
DU?
284
00:32:22,217 --> 00:32:24,253
Digital Universe.
285
00:32:25,737 --> 00:32:28,499
He made a world,
a fully realized population.
286
00:32:28,602 --> 00:32:30,397
The corporations had
been trying for years
287
00:32:30,501 --> 00:32:32,606
to harness machine learning
to their advantage.
288
00:32:32,710 --> 00:32:34,022
What was missing?
289
00:32:34,125 --> 00:32:35,402
People-- billions of them,
290
00:32:35,506 --> 00:32:38,578
with their own emotions,
desires, agency.
291
00:32:40,338 --> 00:32:44,894
Hunter began to use
the system for advanced R&D.
292
00:32:44,998 --> 00:32:49,520
He realized he could test
anything on his pet universe.
293
00:32:49,623 --> 00:32:52,557
High-risk surgical implants.
Advanced weaponry.
294
00:32:52,661 --> 00:32:55,629
Mass testing of cutting-edge
pharmaceuticals.
295
00:32:56,285 --> 00:32:58,943
Within an impossibly short
amount of time,
296
00:32:59,047 --> 00:33:01,359
he became Sentech's CEO.
297
00:33:01,463 --> 00:33:03,603
Then things moved even faster.
298
00:33:05,191 --> 00:33:06,571
What better testbed?
299
00:33:06,675 --> 00:33:08,332
What better way
to prototype anything?
300
00:33:08,435 --> 00:33:09,954
Human beings may be cheap,
301
00:33:10,058 --> 00:33:12,198
but simulated ones were
even cheaper.
302
00:33:12,301 --> 00:33:15,718
He had a world of his own
to play with, no consequences.
303
00:33:17,168 --> 00:33:19,757
He tried version...
304
00:33:19,860 --> 00:33:23,036
after version...
305
00:33:23,140 --> 00:33:24,934
after version.
306
00:33:30,906 --> 00:33:32,356
Hunter kept going.
307
00:33:32,459 --> 00:33:35,566
He spent almost a decade
testing,
308
00:33:35,669 --> 00:33:39,570
fine-tuning, restarting.
309
00:33:41,951 --> 00:33:44,230
I'm in one of those versions,
aren't I?
310
00:33:49,028 --> 00:33:50,443
How many?
311
00:33:50,546 --> 00:33:53,446
Before this,
how many versions?
312
00:33:53,549 --> 00:33:55,275
497.
313
00:33:56,828 --> 00:33:58,416
As far as we can tell.
314
00:33:59,900 --> 00:34:02,455
So, what does that make me?
315
00:34:02,558 --> 00:34:03,766
A man.
316
00:34:05,527 --> 00:34:06,873
One I love.
317
00:34:08,737 --> 00:34:10,463
A virtual man.
318
00:34:15,882 --> 00:34:17,642
This is a fucking nightmare.
319
00:34:18,954 --> 00:34:21,336
Where are you, exactly?
320
00:34:24,097 --> 00:34:25,892
Home.
321
00:34:25,995 --> 00:34:28,584
I just need to show you
a bit more.
322
00:34:30,241 --> 00:34:34,003
It got out, what Hunter
and Sentech were doing.
323
00:34:34,107 --> 00:34:37,524
Even if you didn't believe that
the people in the DU were real,
324
00:34:37,628 --> 00:34:40,079
the ethical implications
were too much to ignore,
325
00:34:40,182 --> 00:34:42,426
and the power that came
with being able to test
326
00:34:42,529 --> 00:34:47,224
any conceivable possibility
on unwitting populations?
327
00:34:47,327 --> 00:34:50,296
- Us.
- The tech was outlawed.
328
00:34:50,399 --> 00:34:52,781
The DU system was supposed
to be spun down for good.
329
00:34:52,884 --> 00:34:54,541
It wasn't.
He just hid it,
330
00:34:54,645 --> 00:34:57,130
both physically
and on the network.
331
00:34:57,234 --> 00:35:00,029
But I found a way in.
332
00:35:00,133 --> 00:35:01,721
I found...
333
00:35:02,963 --> 00:35:03,999
...you.
334
00:35:17,219 --> 00:35:19,946
Wait. That--
That's the man who shot you.
335
00:35:20,049 --> 00:35:21,120
Hunter.
336
00:35:21,223 --> 00:35:22,638
How come he didn't disappear,
337
00:35:22,742 --> 00:35:24,847
like when you...
338
00:35:24,951 --> 00:35:27,816
- When I died?
- Yeah.
339
00:35:29,542 --> 00:35:31,716
Okay. You needed admin-level
access for that.
340
00:35:31,820 --> 00:35:33,684
The control teams
don't even like doing it.
341
00:35:33,787 --> 00:35:36,376
It throws major checksum
errors, risks corruption.
342
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,241
It messes with the analytics.
343
00:35:39,345 --> 00:35:41,312
The more you break
the physical laws
344
00:35:41,416 --> 00:35:42,658
that are coded in...
345
00:35:42,762 --> 00:35:44,660
The less the system works
as a tool.
346
00:35:44,764 --> 00:35:45,799
Exactly.
347
00:35:45,903 --> 00:35:47,284
So, the goon that attacked you,
348
00:35:47,387 --> 00:35:49,493
when you killed him,
it hurt, bad.
349
00:35:49,596 --> 00:35:52,012
It needs to be real
for the system to function.
350
00:35:52,116 --> 00:35:54,912
No cheating,
or the data devalues.
351
00:35:55,015 --> 00:35:57,156
So, what is this?
352
00:35:57,259 --> 00:36:01,090
Now? Just a book, but it
carried another layer of data.
353
00:36:01,194 --> 00:36:03,852
Data we need to get out, soon.
354
00:36:06,165 --> 00:36:07,752
Wait.
355
00:36:08,546 --> 00:36:10,341
Who's that next to Hunter?
356
00:36:10,445 --> 00:36:13,137
That is
the enigmatic Oliver Cox.
357
00:36:13,241 --> 00:36:15,001
After he saw
what Hunter was doing,
358
00:36:15,104 --> 00:36:17,417
he disappeared
from public view.
359
00:36:17,521 --> 00:36:20,213
He hasn't been seen in years.
360
00:36:20,317 --> 00:36:21,732
Holy shit.
361
00:36:23,112 --> 00:36:25,701
- What?
- I know him.
362
00:36:25,805 --> 00:36:27,531
What do you mean,
you know him?
363
00:36:27,634 --> 00:36:30,119
You know him! The--
The newsstand near my building.
364
00:36:32,950 --> 00:36:37,196
He must be masking himself
from other users of the system.
365
00:36:37,299 --> 00:36:38,887
Like me.
366
00:36:41,130 --> 00:36:42,649
This newsstand,
367
00:36:42,753 --> 00:36:45,894
it might be a kind of
hidden observation post.
368
00:36:48,448 --> 00:36:51,175
Joe, he could help.
- How?
369
00:36:51,279 --> 00:36:53,522
If there's anyone
who can get me back in,
370
00:36:53,626 --> 00:36:55,869
help get that data out,
it's him.
371
00:36:55,973 --> 00:36:57,319
I need to meet him.
372
00:36:57,423 --> 00:36:58,803
He-- He knows you're dead.
373
00:36:58,907 --> 00:37:00,874
I don't think
that'll faze him.
374
00:37:00,978 --> 00:37:04,084
Wait. How did--
How did you stop me from...
375
00:37:07,985 --> 00:37:09,814
I was watching you.
376
00:37:12,886 --> 00:37:14,302
I tried everything, Joe.
377
00:37:14,405 --> 00:37:16,062
The best I could do
was send messages,
378
00:37:16,165 --> 00:37:17,615
hack into some displays.
379
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:20,169
Otherwise, I was locked out.
380
00:37:20,273 --> 00:37:22,102
It wasn't me.
381
00:37:22,206 --> 00:37:23,690
Then who?
382
00:37:41,432 --> 00:37:43,745
Erica, What can I do for you?
383
00:37:45,264 --> 00:37:46,748
We need to spin it down.
384
00:37:48,267 --> 00:37:51,270
"We." Huh.
385
00:37:51,373 --> 00:37:54,859
Okay. Sit.
386
00:38:04,213 --> 00:38:05,594
We're having masking issues.
387
00:38:05,698 --> 00:38:07,389
Security holes.
I can't patch in time.
388
00:38:07,493 --> 00:38:09,978
Well, I patched up one of them
for you.
389
00:38:10,081 --> 00:38:13,464
You shot a woman in plain view
at a coffee shop.
390
00:38:13,568 --> 00:38:17,019
Yeah.
Stress relief.
391
00:38:17,813 --> 00:38:21,230
Besides, it's your job to make
sure no one else gets in.
392
00:38:21,334 --> 00:38:23,440
Right? That's-- That's you?
That's your job?
393
00:38:23,543 --> 00:38:25,338
The only way to do that
is to isolate it completely
394
00:38:25,442 --> 00:38:27,375
from global networks.
- Well, if I do that,
395
00:38:27,478 --> 00:38:28,859
then I can't feed it,
396
00:38:28,962 --> 00:38:31,275
and it doesn't work
as effectively, so...
397
00:38:31,379 --> 00:38:32,380
It can function
as a simulator.
398
00:38:32,483 --> 00:38:34,692
We have excellent analytics.
399
00:38:39,766 --> 00:38:44,806
It doesn't work
as effectively.
400
00:38:49,189 --> 00:38:51,744
We should have spun it
down with the court order.
401
00:38:53,780 --> 00:38:56,576
We're risking exposure, Anthony.
402
00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:58,302
We had another incursion.
403
00:38:58,406 --> 00:39:00,062
A huge amount of data
just moved around.
404
00:39:00,166 --> 00:39:01,995
I'm tracking it, but--
- Okay.
405
00:39:05,516 --> 00:39:07,760
The world is shit.
406
00:39:09,002 --> 00:39:09,969
You get that, right?
407
00:39:10,072 --> 00:39:13,282
Like... what are we?
408
00:39:13,386 --> 00:39:15,940
Collectively,
billions of idiots,
409
00:39:16,044 --> 00:39:18,978
decimating the only home
that we have.
410
00:39:19,944 --> 00:39:22,395
But we have a way.
411
00:39:22,499 --> 00:39:24,086
We have way
412
00:39:24,190 --> 00:39:26,951
to run any conceivable test
413
00:39:27,055 --> 00:39:31,162
to find out what happens
before it happens,
414
00:39:31,266 --> 00:39:33,786
before we have to hand over
the keys to the environment
415
00:39:33,889 --> 00:39:35,650
to the fossil fuel
conglomerates,
416
00:39:35,753 --> 00:39:38,273
before we go down
the same path as version 16
417
00:39:38,377 --> 00:39:39,550
and elect an autocratic,
418
00:39:39,654 --> 00:39:41,172
malignant narcissist
to high office.
419
00:39:41,276 --> 00:39:42,588
Remember that fucking mess?
420
00:39:42,691 --> 00:39:43,761
Him and his mob
almost cost us
421
00:39:43,865 --> 00:39:45,245
half the globe in seven years.
422
00:39:45,349 --> 00:39:50,043
Before millions
of more people die
423
00:39:50,147 --> 00:39:52,183
in senseless conflict
424
00:39:52,287 --> 00:39:55,152
based on primitive ideologies
425
00:39:55,255 --> 00:39:58,673
born out of ancient
superstitions,
426
00:39:58,776 --> 00:40:03,056
mass manipulation,
targeted disinformation.
427
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,921
The world is shit!
428
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,652
But I'm going to fix it.
429
00:40:14,654 --> 00:40:17,208
I am fixing it.
430
00:40:21,489 --> 00:40:23,732
You're killing people
to do it.
431
00:40:25,631 --> 00:40:27,771
Billions of people.
432
00:40:29,669 --> 00:40:33,121
Algorithmically generated
population units.
433
00:40:34,881 --> 00:40:37,608
The rest of the world
doesn't see it like that.
434
00:40:37,712 --> 00:40:38,920
Nor do the courts.
435
00:40:39,023 --> 00:40:41,888
The courts can go
fuck themselves!
436
00:40:41,992 --> 00:40:45,996
They will legislate us
into a burning cinder.
437
00:40:49,378 --> 00:40:51,967
Keep it hidden.
Keep it connected.
438
00:40:52,071 --> 00:40:53,831
Figure it out.
439
00:40:58,974 --> 00:41:00,459
Erica.
440
00:41:05,291 --> 00:41:06,948
My globe.
441
00:41:14,990 --> 00:41:17,096
Um...
442
00:41:17,199 --> 00:41:19,098
find that girl I shot...
443
00:41:20,513 --> 00:41:22,135
...here in the real world.
444
00:41:46,919 --> 00:41:49,991
What can I help you with,
dead girl?
445
00:41:50,094 --> 00:41:52,338
- It is you.
- And you found me,
446
00:41:52,441 --> 00:41:54,754
through my firewalls, no less.
447
00:41:55,824 --> 00:41:57,412
Hey, talking is risky,
448
00:41:57,516 --> 00:42:01,450
so I can give you
another 30 seconds.
449
00:42:02,313 --> 00:42:04,764
I need to know where it is.
Can you help me find it?
450
00:42:04,868 --> 00:42:06,317
- Find what?
- The DU.
451
00:42:06,421 --> 00:42:07,802
The physical system location.
452
00:42:07,905 --> 00:42:10,114
And I need a valid network key
to get back in.
453
00:42:10,218 --> 00:42:12,841
It's distributed. It could be
anywhere. Everywhere.
454
00:42:12,945 --> 00:42:14,498
Oh, and are you out
of your freaking mind?
455
00:42:14,602 --> 00:42:15,464
What makes you think
I can help?
456
00:42:15,568 --> 00:42:17,190
Or would?
457
00:42:17,294 --> 00:42:19,710
When I first started, I was
trying to get it shut down.
458
00:42:19,814 --> 00:42:22,368
Now things are--
- Complicated. Yes.
459
00:42:22,471 --> 00:42:24,370
Joe.
460
00:42:24,473 --> 00:42:26,130
Seems like
you're using it yourself.
461
00:42:26,234 --> 00:42:27,304
What are you doing in there?
462
00:42:27,407 --> 00:42:29,168
We'll be in touch.
463
00:43:04,617 --> 00:43:07,240
Missed her.
Can't be far.
464
00:43:08,932 --> 00:43:11,900
Scan the place.
Turn it upside down.
465
00:43:16,077 --> 00:43:18,976
Yeah. Requesting your support.
466
00:44:26,388 --> 00:44:27,838
You armed?
467
00:44:27,942 --> 00:44:30,323
Nothing smart
or network-connected.
468
00:44:36,847 --> 00:44:39,747
Inert non-metallic
nano-graphene blades.
469
00:44:43,820 --> 00:44:46,167
That isn't standard issue.
470
00:44:46,270 --> 00:44:49,377
- It's personal.
- Spring-loaded?
471
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:51,379
Well, it can't be legal.
472
00:44:52,414 --> 00:44:54,037
Coffee.
473
00:45:06,532 --> 00:45:08,776
There you are.
474
00:45:08,879 --> 00:45:10,778
- You like things analog.
- Mm.
475
00:45:10,881 --> 00:45:13,194
Well, you're welcome to borrow
something if you like.
476
00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:15,472
Mmm.
477
00:45:15,575 --> 00:45:17,025
Ahh!
478
00:45:17,129 --> 00:45:19,648
I long ago learned
that I retain things better
479
00:45:19,752 --> 00:45:21,789
when I read from the hard copy,
480
00:45:21,892 --> 00:45:24,067
absorb works of art
from the original source.
481
00:45:24,170 --> 00:45:27,104
It's just--
it's less ephemeral.
482
00:45:27,208 --> 00:45:29,589
Digital, it can be gone
like that.
483
00:45:29,693 --> 00:45:31,350
Like you.
484
00:45:31,453 --> 00:45:32,696
What do you know about me?
485
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:33,801
I know that you worked
with Hunter.
486
00:45:33,904 --> 00:45:35,319
Some kind of partnership.
487
00:45:35,423 --> 00:45:36,562
You disappeared.
488
00:45:36,665 --> 00:45:39,461
Mm, it's more like
a co-dependency
489
00:45:39,565 --> 00:45:43,431
and not the whole story,
but probably enough for now.
490
00:45:43,534 --> 00:45:45,329
He's after me.
491
00:45:45,433 --> 00:45:47,504
Did, uh, getting yourself
killed give it away, did it?
492
00:45:47,607 --> 00:45:49,368
Out here, I mean.
493
00:45:50,024 --> 00:45:52,233
What were you doing in
the system in the first place?
494
00:45:52,336 --> 00:45:55,581
I'm freelance.
Intel for a while before that.
495
00:45:55,684 --> 00:45:56,893
I'm good at tracing data,
496
00:45:56,996 --> 00:45:58,377
making connections.
- I've seen.
497
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,689
You don't just hack
into proprietary systems
498
00:46:00,793 --> 00:46:03,589
like this by googling.
499
00:46:03,692 --> 00:46:05,625
You're impressive,
Miss Solway.
500
00:46:05,729 --> 00:46:07,455
I was recruited out
of college,
501
00:46:07,558 --> 00:46:09,595
trained 10 years as an analyst.
502
00:46:09,698 --> 00:46:10,941
I went out on my own
with a small team
503
00:46:11,045 --> 00:46:13,392
when all of this
started with Sentech.
504
00:46:13,495 --> 00:46:16,429
We were convinced Hunter wasn't
following the court orders.
505
00:46:16,533 --> 00:46:19,674
Sentech was growing too fast,
becoming too powerful,
506
00:46:19,778 --> 00:46:21,745
as were his corporate pals,
507
00:46:21,849 --> 00:46:24,748
a few oligarchs
he did business with.
508
00:46:24,852 --> 00:46:26,750
Some fringe nations
with money to burn.
509
00:46:26,854 --> 00:46:29,132
Using data
from DU iterations.
510
00:46:29,235 --> 00:46:31,444
We were just trying
to confirm what we already knew,
511
00:46:31,548 --> 00:46:33,067
really, deal with it.
512
00:46:33,170 --> 00:46:37,450
And you just
stuck around after hours?
513
00:46:37,554 --> 00:46:39,418
I saw what I saw.
514
00:46:39,521 --> 00:46:41,144
What it was.
515
00:46:41,247 --> 00:46:43,629
It wouldn't have been right
to shut it down
516
00:46:43,732 --> 00:46:45,596
or let Hunter restart it.
517
00:46:45,700 --> 00:46:47,184
These...
518
00:46:50,325 --> 00:46:51,948
These are people.
519
00:46:52,051 --> 00:46:54,364
Just going about their lives.
520
00:46:57,194 --> 00:46:59,679
So, what are you doing
in there,
521
00:46:59,783 --> 00:47:01,958
selling newspapers and candy?
522
00:47:02,061 --> 00:47:03,891
I knew Hunter
would keep it running.
523
00:47:03,994 --> 00:47:05,858
There's just too many benefits.
524
00:47:05,962 --> 00:47:08,516
It's like a-a digital
crystal ball.
525
00:47:08,619 --> 00:47:12,209
There is so much the DU
can-- can show us,
526
00:47:12,313 --> 00:47:13,555
can teach us,
527
00:47:13,659 --> 00:47:16,006
without outside interference.
528
00:47:16,110 --> 00:47:17,732
That's not an answer.
529
00:47:17,836 --> 00:47:19,734
It's the one I can give.
530
00:47:22,633 --> 00:47:24,014
It was you, wasn't it?
531
00:47:24,118 --> 00:47:27,397
Saving Joe,
changing things to help him?
532
00:47:30,641 --> 00:47:32,609
I'll take that as a yes.
533
00:47:34,922 --> 00:47:36,716
Why?
534
00:47:37,407 --> 00:47:40,548
Maybe there's more to him
than meets the eye.
535
00:47:40,651 --> 00:47:42,722
I think you know that already.
536
00:47:44,759 --> 00:47:46,657
So, will you help me?
537
00:47:46,761 --> 00:47:48,073
I need to get Hunter
off my ass,
538
00:47:48,176 --> 00:47:50,834
find somewhere safe,
see Joe.
539
00:47:50,938 --> 00:47:53,216
- Go back in?
- Yes.
540
00:47:54,458 --> 00:47:55,804
Please.
541
00:48:00,602 --> 00:48:02,363
You really love him.
542
00:48:08,679 --> 00:48:14,099
I get that he's not... real.
543
00:48:15,272 --> 00:48:20,139
But we are way past real
as an easy definition.
544
00:48:28,182 --> 00:48:30,460
- Are you making fun of me?
- No, no, no, I'm not.
545
00:48:30,563 --> 00:48:32,255
I-I'm saying there's
nothing strange
546
00:48:32,358 --> 00:48:33,808
about the way you're feeling.
547
00:48:33,912 --> 00:48:35,810
That was the whole point
of the design.
548
00:48:35,914 --> 00:48:37,570
So, you'll help me?
549
00:48:41,436 --> 00:48:42,817
I will.
550
00:48:44,992 --> 00:48:46,165
But first things first.
551
00:48:46,269 --> 00:48:47,960
I need to get you
somewhere safe.
552
00:48:48,064 --> 00:48:49,824
Not here.
553
00:48:51,308 --> 00:48:54,001
There's an autonomous
hotel downtown.
554
00:48:54,104 --> 00:48:55,554
I'm part owner.
555
00:48:55,657 --> 00:48:57,866
You can lay low,
556
00:48:57,970 --> 00:48:59,489
log in if you must.
557
00:48:59,592 --> 00:49:03,251
I'll get you a network address
and a new encrypted key.
558
00:49:03,355 --> 00:49:04,977
Long term,
559
00:49:05,081 --> 00:49:07,221
I'm not sure
how to handle Hunter yet.
560
00:49:07,324 --> 00:49:09,982
Never mind save this iteration
of the system,
561
00:49:10,086 --> 00:49:12,088
which means stealing it.
562
00:49:12,191 --> 00:49:14,814
Yeah, I have a plan for that.
563
00:49:18,577 --> 00:49:21,235
But right now,
I'm not on Hunter's radar.
564
00:49:24,203 --> 00:49:27,724
I like not being on his radar.
565
00:50:06,556 --> 00:50:07,798
Hey.
566
00:50:21,467 --> 00:50:22,848
You're here.
567
00:50:38,001 --> 00:50:39,658
Oliver.
568
00:50:44,111 --> 00:50:46,458
Bellamy, this iteration's run
its course.
569
00:50:46,561 --> 00:50:49,392
Time to archive it
and study it offline.
570
00:50:52,774 --> 00:50:57,158
It was killing me every day,
knowing that you were in pain,
571
00:50:57,262 --> 00:50:58,987
thinking that I was gone.
572
00:51:01,542 --> 00:51:04,269
All I wanted to do
was reach out to you.
573
00:51:06,892 --> 00:51:10,896
And when Hunter killed me,
he killed my access.
574
00:51:10,999 --> 00:51:14,796
It had taken me months
to find a way in the first time.
575
00:51:24,047 --> 00:51:25,842
I love you.
576
00:51:30,295 --> 00:51:32,538
I wish I knew
what to do with that.
577
00:51:34,644 --> 00:51:36,784
You could tell me
you love me, too.
578
00:51:38,717 --> 00:51:43,480
But if I do, is that just...
programming, talking?
579
00:51:43,584 --> 00:51:47,070
My whole world view's
kind of broken.
580
00:51:48,451 --> 00:51:50,763
How would you feel...
581
00:51:50,867 --> 00:51:53,318
if you found out you were
just a character in a game?
582
00:51:53,421 --> 00:51:55,665
- It's not a game.
- You sure?
583
00:52:07,815 --> 00:52:09,610
It's not a game.
584
00:52:11,508 --> 00:52:16,064
This is as real
as anything I know.
585
00:52:20,931 --> 00:52:22,278
Maybe my other life is a dream.
586
00:52:22,381 --> 00:52:24,694
Maybe this is the one
that counts.
587
00:52:30,148 --> 00:52:31,908
But you have a choice.
588
00:52:32,011 --> 00:52:33,461
So do you.
589
00:52:33,565 --> 00:52:37,465
No, I don't.
You can leave this.
590
00:52:39,157 --> 00:52:41,159
This is all I have.
591
00:52:41,262 --> 00:52:43,437
I need a drink.
- Joe.
592
00:52:43,540 --> 00:52:45,646
Please come back.
593
00:52:54,068 --> 00:52:56,415
I pulled you out.
594
00:52:56,519 --> 00:52:58,348
- You can do that?
- Not now. Listen.
595
00:52:58,452 --> 00:53:00,108
Hunter is onto you, and he's
throwing a hell of a lot
596
00:53:00,212 --> 00:53:02,283
of compute your way.
It's time to move.
597
00:53:02,387 --> 00:53:04,112
I just need to get
a message to Joe.
598
00:53:04,216 --> 00:53:06,080
Ash! Get out!
599
00:53:08,186 --> 00:53:09,877
Fuck!
600
00:53:31,795 --> 00:53:34,004
- Oliver!
- Joe! How goes the day?
601
00:53:34,108 --> 00:53:35,627
- Ash-- she...
- I know, I know.
602
00:53:35,730 --> 00:53:37,353
No, no.
No, not-- she was here.
603
00:53:37,456 --> 00:53:38,906
I was speaking with her,
and she just--
604
00:53:39,009 --> 00:53:41,149
she disappeared.
She-- She left.
605
00:53:41,253 --> 00:53:43,221
I...
606
00:53:43,324 --> 00:53:44,946
Look, man,
I don't know how this works.
607
00:53:45,050 --> 00:53:47,121
Help me. Please.
608
00:53:50,883 --> 00:53:54,024
Shit, shit, shit, shit,
shit, shit.
609
00:53:57,476 --> 00:53:59,098
I don't know how
to deal with this--
610
00:53:59,202 --> 00:54:01,100
with anything.
She's alive!
611
00:54:01,204 --> 00:54:02,550
But what does that mean?
Am I?
612
00:54:02,654 --> 00:54:04,103
If I love her,
is that even real?
613
00:54:04,207 --> 00:54:06,761
Does anything I feel even--
- Joe!
614
00:54:11,766 --> 00:54:14,044
She's in trouble, isn't she?
615
00:54:16,288 --> 00:54:19,118
Alright. Alright.
616
00:54:19,222 --> 00:54:21,707
Then that's all that matters.
617
00:54:21,811 --> 00:54:23,640
How do I help her?
618
00:54:23,744 --> 00:54:25,263
Have a seat.
619
00:54:26,402 --> 00:54:28,438
This world won't be
worth the risk much longer.
620
00:54:28,542 --> 00:54:30,889
Understand?
- He'll shut it down.
621
00:54:30,992 --> 00:54:32,373
This iteration, anyway.
622
00:54:32,477 --> 00:54:34,410
He's probably already started
the process.
623
00:54:34,513 --> 00:54:36,239
He could just spin it back up
when the heat's off.
624
00:54:36,343 --> 00:54:39,415
But for you,
it's the end of the line.
625
00:54:39,518 --> 00:54:41,209
Everything you know, gone.
626
00:54:41,313 --> 00:54:44,247
You, gone.
627
00:54:44,351 --> 00:54:45,938
It's not just
about you and Ash.
628
00:54:46,042 --> 00:54:50,771
It's about billions of people
and their right to live.
629
00:54:52,773 --> 00:54:54,740
I'm just a fish in a tank.
630
00:54:56,811 --> 00:54:59,504
You're so much more
than that.
631
00:54:59,607 --> 00:55:02,507
Get the data
you're carrying out.
632
00:55:02,610 --> 00:55:05,441
- How?
- Years ago,
633
00:55:05,544 --> 00:55:08,823
software designers used to leave
stuff behind in the code.
634
00:55:08,927 --> 00:55:10,722
- Easter eggs?
- In a manner of speaking.
635
00:55:10,825 --> 00:55:12,551
They're usually tied
to a specific place
636
00:55:12,655 --> 00:55:15,796
in the environment,
somewhere to stock up,
637
00:55:15,899 --> 00:55:19,317
get cheat codes,
transfer things in and out.
638
00:55:19,420 --> 00:55:22,561
Developer mode.
- There's a place like that here.
639
00:55:22,665 --> 00:55:24,943
How do you know?
- Because I built it.
640
00:55:27,808 --> 00:55:30,120
- What's in it?
- A way for you to upload
641
00:55:30,224 --> 00:55:32,295
the data you're carrying.
- Which is?
642
00:55:34,401 --> 00:55:35,885
It's an instance.
643
00:55:35,988 --> 00:55:38,508
A backup
of the entire digital universe
644
00:55:38,612 --> 00:55:41,580
from the moment
you opened that book.
645
00:55:41,684 --> 00:55:44,307
That's the data Ash is trying
to get out.
646
00:55:46,067 --> 00:55:49,001
- Holy shit.
- Indeed.
647
00:55:49,105 --> 00:55:51,590
So, get there, upload.
648
00:55:51,694 --> 00:55:54,144
- Then?
- Sit tight.
649
00:55:54,248 --> 00:55:55,422
No, I can't do that.
650
00:55:55,525 --> 00:55:56,802
I have to find Hunter,
help Ash.
651
00:55:56,906 --> 00:55:58,217
I don't think you're stupid,
Joe.
652
00:55:58,321 --> 00:56:00,910
And that?
That is stupid.
653
00:56:01,013 --> 00:56:03,430
He can literally flick a switch,
and you are gone.
654
00:56:03,533 --> 00:56:06,260
Gone like you never existed.
- Why hasn't he?
655
00:56:06,364 --> 00:56:10,540
Because every time he cheats,
he acts in ways that don't abide
656
00:56:10,644 --> 00:56:13,578
by the coded physical laws
of his universe.
657
00:56:13,681 --> 00:56:17,064
- Checksum errors.
- Exactly.
658
00:56:17,167 --> 00:56:18,445
Ash explained.
659
00:56:18,548 --> 00:56:19,756
Errors. Inconsistencies.
660
00:56:19,860 --> 00:56:21,379
Fidelity goes out the window.
661
00:56:21,482 --> 00:56:22,587
Bad data.
662
00:56:22,690 --> 00:56:24,623
Bad data has no value.
663
00:56:24,727 --> 00:56:27,523
Joe, upload, then go home.
664
00:56:27,626 --> 00:56:29,697
I'll try to help where I can.
665
00:56:34,530 --> 00:56:36,324
It's one of a kind.
666
00:56:36,428 --> 00:56:38,085
Please don't lose it.
667
00:56:38,188 --> 00:56:41,502
I will send the location
of the room to your phone.
668
00:56:41,606 --> 00:56:43,228
Load it with what you need.
669
00:56:43,331 --> 00:56:45,472
Now, that is
hardware decryption.
670
00:56:45,575 --> 00:56:47,128
It'll open the door,
671
00:56:47,232 --> 00:56:50,477
but the phone will need
to trigger what happens next.
672
00:56:50,580 --> 00:56:52,340
You need to find the comm panel.
673
00:56:52,444 --> 00:56:55,827
If you touch it,
it'll start the data upload.
674
00:56:55,930 --> 00:56:57,622
Don't touch anything else
while you're in there.
675
00:56:57,725 --> 00:57:00,210
Okay.
What else is there?
676
00:57:00,314 --> 00:57:02,730
Find the panel.
Upload.
677
00:57:07,148 --> 00:57:08,702
Enjoy the day, Joe.
678
00:57:19,437 --> 00:57:21,715
God.
679
00:57:38,352 --> 00:57:40,181
Hello, Joe.
680
00:57:47,257 --> 00:57:50,019
Hey, MEL.
I hope you're happy.
681
00:57:50,122 --> 00:57:53,298
My systems are now operating
at full capacity.
682
00:57:55,300 --> 00:57:57,613
Listen,
if I don't see you again,
683
00:57:57,716 --> 00:58:00,374
thanks for everything.
- My pleasure, Joe.
684
00:58:00,478 --> 00:58:01,996
Have a great day.
685
00:59:27,081 --> 00:59:30,050
It won't work.
It's keyed to me.
686
00:59:32,086 --> 00:59:34,433
Seems like it works okay to me.
687
00:59:34,537 --> 00:59:36,056
You're messing--
688
00:59:36,159 --> 00:59:38,748
You're messing with something
you shouldn't be.
689
00:59:38,852 --> 00:59:40,508
Your boss is doing that.
690
00:59:40,612 --> 00:59:42,131
Where's the DU?
691
00:59:44,064 --> 00:59:45,962
Where?!
692
00:59:46,066 --> 00:59:48,275
You're already dead
in one world.
693
00:59:48,378 --> 00:59:50,311
Not long here, either.
694
00:59:50,415 --> 00:59:52,348
Bitch.
695
01:00:16,993 --> 01:00:18,339
Morning.
696
01:00:26,175 --> 01:00:27,521
So, Ash...
697
01:00:29,074 --> 01:00:30,524
...what now?
698
01:00:30,628 --> 01:00:33,561
You going to kill me again?
699
01:00:33,665 --> 01:00:35,149
Not yet.
700
01:00:36,944 --> 01:00:38,014
Why did you do it
the first time?
701
01:00:38,118 --> 01:00:39,153
You know why.
702
01:00:39,257 --> 01:00:40,948
Because I found
your private playground.
703
01:00:41,052 --> 01:00:46,229
Uh, my multi-billion-dollar
analysis tool, you mean?
704
01:00:46,333 --> 01:00:47,955
You say tomato.
705
01:00:49,405 --> 01:00:51,234
You were supposed to stop.
706
01:00:52,822 --> 01:00:55,100
You seem to be enjoying it.
707
01:00:57,758 --> 01:01:01,520
You asshole.
708
01:01:02,936 --> 01:01:05,559
What gives you the right
709
01:01:05,663 --> 01:01:08,389
to play with so many lives?
710
01:01:13,947 --> 01:01:15,224
What about you, huh?
711
01:01:15,327 --> 01:01:16,501
What were you doing
in that bookstore,
712
01:01:16,604 --> 01:01:18,468
if not playing with lives?
713
01:01:18,572 --> 01:01:20,919
Just browsing the wares
yourself?
714
01:01:21,023 --> 01:01:24,026
A couple of books
and a boy to go?
715
01:01:31,585 --> 01:01:33,000
It's different.
716
01:01:34,312 --> 01:01:36,417
You know it's different.
717
01:01:41,491 --> 01:01:42,941
Yeah. Okay, enough of this.
718
01:01:43,045 --> 01:01:45,323
I have to, uh, catch up
with an old friend.
719
01:01:45,426 --> 01:01:47,014
So...
720
01:01:47,118 --> 01:01:50,362
You're cool to just hang here
for a few minutes, right?
721
01:02:10,348 --> 01:02:13,661
I didn't take you
for the nostalgic type.
722
01:02:13,765 --> 01:02:15,733
Surprised to hear from you.
723
01:02:15,836 --> 01:02:17,458
Always good to see you,
old friend.
724
01:02:23,292 --> 01:02:25,570
Why are you messing
with my universe?
725
01:02:25,673 --> 01:02:28,607
Oh, see, there's your problem.
726
01:02:28,711 --> 01:02:30,092
My problem?
727
01:02:30,195 --> 01:02:34,027
Your need to possess,
your possessiveness.
728
01:02:35,614 --> 01:02:38,963
- Fuck you, old man.
- Worked on that.
729
01:02:39,066 --> 01:02:40,619
You did it to yourself.
730
01:02:40,723 --> 01:02:42,035
Everything was moving
along just fine.
731
01:02:42,138 --> 01:02:43,933
Well,
it's a matter of perspective.
732
01:02:44,037 --> 01:02:45,659
The billions of dead
in your last little test
733
01:02:45,763 --> 01:02:47,385
would beg to differ.
734
01:02:47,488 --> 01:02:49,663
Our test, you mean?
735
01:02:49,767 --> 01:02:51,976
I had no idea what you were
planning until it was too late,
736
01:02:52,079 --> 01:02:53,356
and you know that.
737
01:02:53,460 --> 01:02:56,325
Always pushing the limits.
738
01:02:56,428 --> 01:02:58,810
You know, breaking things
intentionally, like a child,
739
01:02:58,914 --> 01:03:00,847
you know, pulling the legs
off of insects
740
01:03:00,950 --> 01:03:03,159
just to see what happens.
741
01:03:03,263 --> 01:03:05,334
If I was being honest--
- Mm, yeah.
742
01:03:05,437 --> 01:03:08,233
By all means, be honest.
743
01:03:13,791 --> 01:03:17,725
You're a psychopath,
old friend.
744
01:03:17,829 --> 01:03:20,280
And I think you know it.
745
01:03:21,005 --> 01:03:23,766
I'm just... trying to do
my own thing,
746
01:03:23,870 --> 01:03:27,114
which includes staying out
of your way.
747
01:03:31,118 --> 01:03:33,983
I want to believe that.
748
01:03:34,915 --> 01:03:39,575
I may have made this
with you,
749
01:03:39,678 --> 01:03:41,301
but it's your playground.
750
01:03:41,404 --> 01:03:44,062
I am down with that.
751
01:03:50,275 --> 01:03:52,105
Whew.
752
01:03:53,900 --> 01:03:56,143
I'm glad to hear that.
753
01:04:10,951 --> 01:04:13,471
Hmm.
754
01:04:13,574 --> 01:04:15,300
Ow!
755
01:04:15,404 --> 01:04:16,854
Uh-oh.
756
01:04:24,516 --> 01:04:25,586
No.
757
01:04:28,279 --> 01:04:29,832
How did-- How did you--
758
01:04:29,936 --> 01:04:32,524
Your problem,
if we're being honest,
759
01:04:32,628 --> 01:04:37,598
is that your curiosity
or your, uh, empathy
760
01:04:37,702 --> 01:04:40,429
gets a better view every time.
761
01:04:40,532 --> 01:04:44,398
Once you agreed to meet,
once we interacted,
762
01:04:44,502 --> 01:04:46,228
I found you.
763
01:04:49,231 --> 01:04:52,510
- Safeguards.
- Huh?
764
01:04:52,613 --> 01:04:53,925
Yeah, you're dying.
765
01:04:54,029 --> 01:04:56,065
Gonna be over
in a couple of minutes.
766
01:04:56,169 --> 01:05:01,415
Um, if you want, I can back up
your avatar
767
01:05:01,519 --> 01:05:03,348
for old times' sake.
768
01:05:12,875 --> 01:05:16,120
I, uh, wrapped up
some of the loose ends.
769
01:05:44,872 --> 01:05:46,426
Fancy.
770
01:05:56,298 --> 01:05:57,816
Shit.
771
01:06:47,694 --> 01:06:50,697
Some kind of transfer initiated
from inside the system.
772
01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:52,595
What?
773
01:06:52,699 --> 01:06:55,391
I think your guy
is transferring code out.
774
01:06:56,530 --> 01:06:59,188
It's lighting up a city block.
775
01:07:01,190 --> 01:07:03,675
Stop him. Now.
776
01:07:35,052 --> 01:07:36,743
Shit.
777
01:07:54,312 --> 01:07:55,900
Hello, Joe.
778
01:07:56,003 --> 01:07:59,283
Please select
required options.
779
01:07:59,386 --> 01:08:00,698
Oh.
780
01:08:54,234 --> 01:08:56,823
How many times do
I have to kill you?
781
01:08:56,926 --> 01:08:58,928
Okay. Enough.
782
01:09:24,126 --> 01:09:25,748
Hello, Joe.
783
01:09:25,852 --> 01:09:27,543
W-W-Wait.
Okay. Easy, easy.
784
01:09:27,647 --> 01:09:30,408
Let me just--
Let me explain.
785
01:09:30,512 --> 01:09:32,272
There's only one you right now.
786
01:09:32,376 --> 01:09:33,584
You-- You get that, right?
787
01:09:33,687 --> 01:09:35,344
There's only one you.
This one.
788
01:09:35,448 --> 01:09:39,141
So if I were to, like,
I don't know, shoot you...
789
01:09:43,352 --> 01:09:45,492
...you'd feel it.
790
01:09:45,596 --> 01:09:48,461
And if I were to kill you...
791
01:09:49,979 --> 01:09:52,499
...you wouldn't just wake up
somewhere else.
792
01:09:52,603 --> 01:09:55,468
This-- This is
kind of all there is.
793
01:10:19,043 --> 01:10:20,872
I made you.
794
01:10:22,702 --> 01:10:24,704
And I unmake you.
795
01:10:37,613 --> 01:10:40,167
Everything you are,
everything you do,
796
01:10:40,271 --> 01:10:42,446
everything you love...
797
01:10:43,826 --> 01:10:46,139
...nothing more than digital
dust, my man.
798
01:10:47,416 --> 01:10:48,590
Except for Ash, of course.
799
01:10:48,693 --> 01:10:50,281
But, hey, don't worry about her.
800
01:10:50,385 --> 01:10:51,834
She's in great hands.
801
01:11:25,074 --> 01:11:27,560
I don't like your boyfriend.
802
01:11:27,663 --> 01:11:29,941
He doesn't like you much, either.
803
01:11:34,636 --> 01:11:37,777
- What the hell?
- Erica, stand down.
804
01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:39,123
Geddes.
805
01:11:45,785 --> 01:11:47,580
I don't know how he's doing it.
806
01:11:49,064 --> 01:11:51,066
But it doesn't matter.
807
01:11:51,169 --> 01:11:52,757
It's time for a reboot.
808
01:11:52,861 --> 01:11:54,241
No, please!
809
01:11:57,383 --> 01:11:58,763
Please.
810
01:12:00,144 --> 01:12:01,801
Close the door.
811
01:12:13,433 --> 01:12:16,643
None of this makes
any difference.
812
01:12:18,093 --> 01:12:20,716
And you're not even a memory.
813
01:12:20,820 --> 01:12:22,339
Not even a ghost.
814
01:12:24,651 --> 01:12:26,929
Enjoy the end, my man.
815
01:12:35,421 --> 01:12:38,147
Please, at least
let me say goodbye.
816
01:12:41,703 --> 01:12:43,739
You actually love him.
817
01:12:55,958 --> 01:12:59,617
And... on to the next.
818
01:13:18,774 --> 01:13:22,157
Ash. Ash!
Ash, are you there?
819
01:13:24,815 --> 01:13:26,126
I'm here.
820
01:13:28,888 --> 01:13:30,337
Are you okay?
821
01:13:33,513 --> 01:13:35,377
Yeah. I'm okay.
822
01:13:37,483 --> 01:13:38,967
Good.
823
01:13:40,486 --> 01:13:42,349
Good. That's good.
That's all that matters.
824
01:14:26,808 --> 01:14:29,189
Look, I don't know
if I'm real.
825
01:14:31,502 --> 01:14:33,262
Doesn't seem like it.
826
01:14:35,610 --> 01:14:37,681
But I know you are.
827
01:14:38,716 --> 01:14:40,097
And I know what we have is.
828
01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,824
It's the most real thing
I've ever experienced.
829
01:14:47,345 --> 01:14:49,037
I love you, Ash.
830
01:14:50,797 --> 01:14:53,800
And that's not code.
That's not programming.
831
01:14:58,529 --> 01:14:59,944
That's real.
832
01:15:56,656 --> 01:15:58,865
Well [Sighs] that was a lot.
833
01:15:58,969 --> 01:16:00,867
So...
834
01:16:00,971 --> 01:16:02,869
we're kind of in
a sticky spot here
835
01:16:02,973 --> 01:16:04,457
because, uh,
836
01:16:04,561 --> 01:16:08,979
I'm just not sure I know what
I'm supposed to do with you.
837
01:16:09,082 --> 01:16:12,258
Don't twirl your mustache,
you piece of shit.
838
01:16:12,361 --> 01:16:13,984
You know.
839
01:16:16,711 --> 01:16:17,988
Fair enough.
840
01:16:19,334 --> 01:16:22,579
It's just it seems so valuable,
you know?
841
01:16:22,682 --> 01:16:24,235
Shame.
842
01:16:28,619 --> 01:16:30,414
Don't do this, Hunter.
843
01:16:32,692 --> 01:16:35,108
So, look.
844
01:16:35,212 --> 01:16:36,731
I'm sorry.
845
01:16:36,834 --> 01:16:38,146
Go fuck yourself.
846
01:16:38,249 --> 01:16:39,561
Hey, don't be like that.
847
01:16:39,665 --> 01:16:41,183
You are forcing my hand,
and you know it.
848
01:16:41,287 --> 01:16:44,601
I got no choice.
- Don't you, old friend?
849
01:17:23,225 --> 01:17:24,537
Oh.
850
01:17:31,682 --> 01:17:33,339
You're dead.
851
01:17:33,442 --> 01:17:35,375
It's a matter of perspective.
852
01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:37,032
I killed you.
853
01:17:37,136 --> 01:17:39,656
You always had trouble
thinking outside the box,
854
01:17:39,759 --> 01:17:41,450
didn't you?
855
01:17:41,554 --> 01:17:43,314
I'm sorry for that.
856
01:17:43,418 --> 01:17:46,628
True disappointment.
857
01:17:46,732 --> 01:17:48,457
What is happening?
858
01:17:48,561 --> 01:17:51,909
Levels within levels, Anthony.
859
01:17:52,013 --> 01:17:54,118
To quote a favorite
from this iteration,
860
01:17:54,222 --> 01:17:56,914
there are other worlds
than this.
861
01:18:46,205 --> 01:18:47,551
Drop it.
862
01:18:59,356 --> 01:19:01,185
Kick it over to me.
863
01:19:08,572 --> 01:19:10,022
You okay?
864
01:19:10,125 --> 01:19:11,437
Yeah.
865
01:19:18,651 --> 01:19:20,791
You hurt her, no?
866
01:19:20,895 --> 01:19:22,344
You destroyed everything.
867
01:19:23,794 --> 01:19:25,278
Everyone.
868
01:19:48,370 --> 01:19:49,786
Take him down.
869
01:20:03,558 --> 01:20:04,801
Erica!
870
01:20:08,494 --> 01:20:09,633
I'm done.
871
01:20:22,163 --> 01:20:24,751
No, no.
None of that was real.
872
01:20:29,446 --> 01:20:30,688
Like me.
873
01:20:33,450 --> 01:20:34,658
Please.
874
01:21:13,628 --> 01:21:15,147
You're real.
875
01:21:18,633 --> 01:21:20,221
So are you.
876
01:21:22,879 --> 01:21:24,363
I don't understand.
877
01:21:25,571 --> 01:21:27,573
And that makes two of us.
878
01:21:59,363 --> 01:22:01,710
Am I supposed to guess?
- Mm-hmm.
879
01:22:01,814 --> 01:22:04,541
Ah, I'd know those hands
anywhere.
880
01:22:10,961 --> 01:22:12,618
You want to sit for a bit?
881
01:22:13,584 --> 01:22:15,103
Yeah.
882
01:22:26,977 --> 01:22:28,737
It's weird, right?
883
01:22:30,118 --> 01:22:31,982
Meeting here.
884
01:22:33,811 --> 01:22:35,986
I don't know, everything.
885
01:22:36,814 --> 01:22:39,127
I know you wanted to see.
886
01:22:40,094 --> 01:22:43,442
Yeah. Nostalgia, maybe.
887
01:22:44,374 --> 01:22:46,755
Lovebirds, good to see you.
888
01:22:46,859 --> 01:22:48,550
You too. Hey.
889
01:22:50,690 --> 01:22:52,140
Here.
890
01:22:54,660 --> 01:22:59,699
So... how does it feel
to save the world?
891
01:23:01,046 --> 01:23:04,118
Honestly,
I'm not sure I understand.
892
01:23:04,221 --> 01:23:06,775
How are you--
- Still here? Alive?
893
01:23:06,879 --> 01:23:08,501
Same way you are.
894
01:23:10,779 --> 01:23:12,747
How many levels are there?
895
01:23:13,817 --> 01:23:15,267
Ah.
896
01:23:16,095 --> 01:23:18,166
Uh, okay.
897
01:23:23,689 --> 01:23:25,311
So...
898
01:23:26,968 --> 01:23:29,108
- That's supposed to be me?
- No.
899
01:23:29,212 --> 01:23:30,696
Well, this is your world.
900
01:23:30,799 --> 01:23:32,491
Your entire universe.
901
01:23:32,594 --> 01:23:35,735
Created by Hunter with more
than a little help from me.
902
01:23:35,839 --> 01:23:37,323
Okay?
903
01:23:37,427 --> 01:23:38,807
I'm still getting
my head around it,
904
01:23:38,911 --> 01:23:42,018
but yeah, following.
905
01:23:44,020 --> 01:23:48,714
- Okay, now the cup...
- Is the real world.
906
01:23:48,817 --> 01:23:51,510
A world.
Ash's world.
907
01:23:51,613 --> 01:23:53,684
Ash's?
908
01:23:53,788 --> 01:23:55,583
It's a world.
909
01:23:55,686 --> 01:23:57,826
Who knows how many levels,
how many universes?
910
01:23:57,930 --> 01:23:59,518
There could be
an infinite number.
911
01:23:59,621 --> 01:24:01,382
I'm not sure it's
even important.
912
01:24:02,831 --> 01:24:05,317
So, Joe and I are the same?
913
01:24:06,870 --> 01:24:08,872
You brought me up a level.
914
01:24:08,975 --> 01:24:10,425
From the sugar crystal
to the cup.
915
01:24:10,529 --> 01:24:11,944
I did, indeed.
916
01:24:12,048 --> 01:24:14,602
And you're from the saucer?
917
01:24:14,705 --> 01:24:17,294
Well, the metaphor wears
thin, but, uh...
918
01:24:20,021 --> 01:24:21,126
...yes.
919
01:24:21,229 --> 01:24:22,265
But I still don't understand
920
01:24:22,368 --> 01:24:24,681
how you did that with Joe.
921
01:24:25,337 --> 01:24:26,752
Well, not to put
too fine a point on it,
922
01:24:26,855 --> 01:24:28,271
but it was simply a matter
of migrating code
923
01:24:28,374 --> 01:24:29,479
from one system to the next.
924
01:24:29,582 --> 01:24:30,928
- Ouch.
- No, it's semantics.
925
01:24:31,032 --> 01:24:32,620
Not a declaration of value,
926
01:24:32,723 --> 01:24:34,484
but a flesh, blood code.
927
01:24:34,587 --> 01:24:35,899
Code that creates
flesh and blood.
928
01:24:36,002 --> 01:24:37,487
Who knows?
Who cares?
929
01:24:37,590 --> 01:24:39,558
You're just as human as I am.
930
01:24:39,661 --> 01:24:41,870
Look, we're all free
to continue
931
01:24:41,974 --> 01:24:43,251
to wonder about our creators.
932
01:24:43,355 --> 01:24:45,460
You just happen to have
an inside scoop
933
01:24:45,564 --> 01:24:48,705
from a guy who's simply
a level up.
934
01:24:48,808 --> 01:24:51,052
You feel me?
- I feel you.
935
01:24:56,644 --> 01:24:59,164
Look, Ash.
936
01:24:59,267 --> 01:25:04,617
Hunter was born of my hubris,
my meddling.
937
01:25:04,721 --> 01:25:06,343
He had all the tools
to create something good,
938
01:25:06,447 --> 01:25:08,414
something positive.
939
01:25:08,518 --> 01:25:10,071
But he lacked the one thing
I was looking for,
940
01:25:10,175 --> 01:25:11,969
the one thing I was--
I was testing for.
941
01:25:12,073 --> 01:25:14,869
And that emptiness,
it almost destroyed everything.
942
01:25:14,972 --> 01:25:16,491
The one thing?
943
01:25:18,010 --> 01:25:19,598
It's empathy.
944
01:25:19,701 --> 01:25:21,117
And you showed up.
945
01:25:21,220 --> 01:25:22,980
The surprise,
the-- the unknown variable.
946
01:25:23,084 --> 01:25:26,984
And where Hunter failed,
you-- you didn't.
947
01:25:27,088 --> 01:25:30,402
You stepped up.
You and Joe.
948
01:25:30,505 --> 01:25:33,232
You-- You restore my faith
949
01:25:33,336 --> 01:25:36,477
that we can be good,
caring, kind,
950
01:25:36,580 --> 01:25:39,859
which is what we need to be
to survive in the end.
951
01:25:41,240 --> 01:25:42,897
It seems the code
gets there...
952
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:44,450
eventually.
953
01:25:47,384 --> 01:25:49,593
That's not so bad, right?
954
01:25:51,630 --> 01:25:53,425
It isn't so bad.
955
01:25:56,013 --> 01:25:58,050
Look, Ash.
956
01:25:58,154 --> 01:26:02,399
I created a simulation that is
indistinguishable from reality.
957
01:26:02,503 --> 01:26:04,298
It is your reality.
958
01:26:04,401 --> 01:26:05,989
It's everything
you've ever known.
959
01:26:06,092 --> 01:26:08,405
And now it's yours, too, Joe.
960
01:26:08,509 --> 01:26:10,476
But at some point soon,
961
01:26:10,580 --> 01:26:13,134
this world will reach a
high enough level of technology
962
01:26:13,238 --> 01:26:15,930
that it creates
its own simulation.
963
01:26:16,033 --> 01:26:18,484
So, you see, it's unlikely,
if not impossible,
964
01:26:18,588 --> 01:26:22,385
that my own reality isn't
also a simulation.
965
01:26:22,488 --> 01:26:26,941
But chances are we are nowhere
close to the original real.
966
01:26:27,044 --> 01:26:30,013
So, enjoy each other.
967
01:26:30,116 --> 01:26:32,326
Enjoy what life has to offer.
968
01:26:32,429 --> 01:26:35,432
Here. Up there.
969
01:26:35,536 --> 01:26:37,952
Does it matter?
Really?
970
01:26:47,962 --> 01:26:49,481
There you go.
971
01:27:30,970 --> 01:27:32,972
Ohh.
972
01:27:39,600 --> 01:27:42,741
This, we got right.
