00:01Hi, Dad.
00:03Overmind! Give him to me!
00:07My warlord, my wild friend!
00:17Something hit us! Some kind of creature!
00:21Sora, bring the boy to me!
00:25Identification code, Dr. Stewart Gordon Power.
00:28Request access to Phoenix Project.
00:32These are dangerous times, Stuart.
00:35You have one hour.
00:38Beyond that, I cannot be responsible for John's...
00:42well-being.
00:4528 minutes, 30 seconds to target.
00:49Lord Trent.
00:52Maintain scan.
00:53The power has let his emotions make him vulnerable.
00:59Foolish.
01:00It is an anniversary of loss, Lackey.
01:03The death of his father.
01:0515 years.
01:08A long time ago.
01:10The death of his father.
01:11The death of his father.

01:36The death of his father.
01:37Hello, Stuart.
01:43It's been a long time.
01:49Stuart?
01:52Hello?
01:55Stuart?
01:56Stuart?
02:06Voice print, Matt Masterson, acknowledged and verified.
02:10Executing last word program, Mark.
02:15Greetings, Major.
02:17Stuart?
02:18Negative.
02:19I am mental.
02:21Dr. Power has given me his likeness.
02:24His stated purpose was to assure that his son would never be without him.
02:29Never without him.
02:30Where is he?
02:31Where's John?
02:33That data is available, but my programming requires that the Phoenix program be run first.
02:38Executing sequence?
02:40No.
02:40Matt, if you're hearing this, it's because I don't expect you to be coming back.
02:55There's much you need to know, my friend.
02:59Listen carefully.
02:59I have come for you.
03:15Who are you?
03:16State your purpose.
03:19I am Sauron.
03:21I enforce the will of the machine.
03:25Are you a biomech?
03:26Limited intelligence?
03:27What can you think?
03:30A reason?
03:31Yes, I think.
03:34First there was darkness, but now I think all the time.
03:39I fight and I think.
03:42I fly and I think.
03:45And I listen to the voices.
03:49And I find something in my program I do not understand.
03:54There is something in the dark.
03:58Where were you developed?
04:00You will forget everything you heard.
04:04And you will come with me.
04:06Now!
04:06So, when activated, the suits create an electrical field that prevents the wearer from being digitized.
04:14Each suit carries its own arsenal of weapons and communications gear.
04:18What's to prevent someone from stealing one of these?
04:21Prior to activation, nothing.
04:23But the suit must be activated here.
04:27And when that happens, the suit conforms to the biological makeup of the first wearer.
04:32After that, no one else can wear it without it being damaged.
04:36It's just what I need.
04:38With this, I can go after Stuart and John.
04:41Warning, Major.
04:42Suits are untested.
04:43Critical tests need to be completed.
04:45There could still be defects.
04:48Possible consequences?
04:4950% possibility of death upon activation of power suit.
05:02Oh, you'll pardon the weaponry.
05:05But I want us to talk freely.
05:07Alone.
05:08Where's John?
05:09On his way.
05:11Maybe here in a few minutes.
05:12Well, what do you think of the facilities?
05:17A little fancier than our old lab, hmm?
05:21All the power anyone could ever want is rooted through this room.
05:27Dangerous stuff.
05:28Yes, but controlled.
05:29At least once the final touches are administered.
05:34I've made breakthroughs here that you can't even imagine.
05:38Well, I'm sure it's all very fascinating.
05:40What does it have to do with me?
05:44I'm offering you the chance to work with me.
05:49Stuart, I'm trying to be reasonable.
05:51We were friends once.
05:53Remember, you and John gave me this.
05:58Now, the Lyman Taggart that I know
05:59would never have ordered the slaughter of thousands of innocent people.
06:04They're resisting the inevitable.
06:06It is cold-blooded murder.
06:07I digitize as many as I can save.
06:11And stick them in that obscenity, overmind?
06:14And you call that mercy?
06:16Oh, wait.
06:17That's right.
06:18I forgot.
06:19You're going to save the world by destroying it.
06:22Seems to me I've heard that before,
06:24and always by someone who thinks that he knows what's best for all of us.
06:27If you just listen.
06:28How many more will die, Taggart?
06:32How many more innocent human lives are going to be wasted for your dream of a machine age?
06:39Thousands?
06:40Millions?
06:41Tens of millions?
06:43And where does it stop?
06:44I could burn you to the ground right now, Stuart.
06:53Then you do it.
06:56Or don't you have the courage?
06:58Is that it?
06:59Is it easier to have those machines out there do the killing for you?
07:01Or is it possible that there's still some little speck of humanity left in there
07:08that Overmind hasn't managed to erase?
07:12Dad!
07:13John!
07:17Are you okay?
07:19I'm okay.
07:19I was just worried about you.
07:20I'm okay.
07:22How touching.
07:25Now move away from the door.
07:26And now that we're all together,
07:33we're going to talk.
07:36You and I.
07:41My programming requires me to warn you again.
07:44There is a danger.
07:46I heard it.
07:48Now here's some new programming for you.
07:50When I turn this thing on, if anything happens to me,
07:54send a tight-beam transmission to Earth Force Headquarters Pentagon.
07:58Turn over all power-based facilities to their control.
08:01Ask them to call in an airstrike on Volkania.
08:04If he's let down his guard enough to let Stuart in.
08:06But Dr. Power and Jonathan...
08:08We'll most likely be dead if I don't get there in time.
08:12Stuart would like me to do it.
08:15But not until, uh...
08:17Whatever happens, happens.
08:20Is that clear?
08:21New programming accepted.
08:22Are you, uh, programmed to say good luck?
08:27Good luck.
08:30All right, Matt.
08:31Let's see if you know what you're doing.
08:34Power on!
08:35Power on!
08:35Power on!
08:52Power on!
08:54Power on!
08:54Power on!
08:55Woo!
08:55Woo!
08:56Woo!
08:56Woo!
08:57It worked.
09:18And so it begins.
09:34Hang on, Stuart. I'm on my way.
09:41Time to target?
09:43Eight minutes, thirty seconds.
09:45Come on, Stuart. Just stay alive, nine more minutes.
09:49That's all I ask.
