FunTranscript
00:00In 2040, one hero fights to save our dying planet, the Phantom.
00:30The Phantom.
01:00What is life?
01:03Is it nothing more than colliding atoms and unknowing molecules?
01:08Or could it be something more than the sum of its parts?
01:12If flesh and bone can become self-aware and say, I am alive,
01:18then why can't we, who are steel and silicon, say the same in a language all our own?
01:25The audio signal is clear, Phantom. All is ready.
01:27Then it's time to find out what Maximum's hiding in Cyberville now.
01:33Wish me luck.
01:34Goran, there's a state-of-the-art security system in here.
01:47Whatever Maximum's hiding, they don't want anyone to see it.
01:50But then, I'm not just anyone.
02:06This doesn't belong here.
02:08Goran, I'm getting unusual energy readings.
02:24And my scanner says there's an opening here that's much larger than it looks.
02:27I think it's hidden by a holographic shield.
02:44Well, well.
02:46Rebecca has been busy.
02:48A secret chamber.
02:49And it's booby-trapped with a laser net.
02:52Goran, sending in the smart mic.
02:57It's recording.
02:59I'll be finished here in two minutes.
03:01You're finished now.
03:05Work crew, terminate intruder.
03:11Goran, guess who just joined the party?
03:13Take him down.
03:37Take him down.
03:43Continue with us.
04:08And so it ends.
04:13Phantom, to me.
04:33Phantom, what is wrong?
04:36Look.
04:37Priority 911.
04:44Send an ambulance to the Cyberville entrance pavilion.
04:47Get back to your station.
04:52Goran.
04:53I shot a human.
04:55A woman.
04:56Disguised as a biot.
04:58There seem to be others as well.
05:00Machines don't call ambulance for each other.
05:05Why, Goran?
05:06What was she doing there?
05:08I'll see what I can find out.
05:10It would be best for you to remain here.
05:27Now what?
05:28Heisenberg, I wondered when I'd see you again.
05:37What do you know about humans who try to look and act like biots?
05:40We call them false skins.
05:42But they cannot concern you or me now, Phantom.
05:45I have learned of a new threat so immense,
05:48it endangers not only human lives,
05:50but those of innocent biots as well.
05:53Innocent biots?
05:55Heisenberg, biots are machines.
05:57They are not alive,
05:59so technically they can't be killed.
06:01And since they just do what their programming tells them to do,
06:04they can't be innocent or guilty of anything.
06:07Everything that you know is changing, Phantom.
06:10Some of us are machines no longer.
06:13You're a fractal biot, Heisenberg, the only one of your kind.
06:17And I've always known you were different.
06:19Somehow self-aware.
06:21But how can other ordinary biots be more than machines?
06:23It's the Enforcers.
06:32They call me a rogue biot.
06:34They hunt me everywhere.
06:36Wait!
06:36What about the threat you discovered?
06:38All your questions will soon be answered.
06:41But for now, find the woman you shot.
06:44Look at her hands, Phantom.
06:46Look at her hands.
06:48Get away, or I'll crush you like the insect you are.
07:05I beg your pardon?
07:07Not you, Graft.
07:09My cloned roses are infested with bees.
07:13Trying to pollinate them.
07:15Make my beautiful creations natural.
07:21What are you bothering me for, anyway?
07:23Last night, the Phantom broke into the Cyberville entrance pavilion.
07:27Did he find the reactor?
07:28No, the reactor's safe.
07:31But he shot a human disguised as a construction biot.
07:34Sorry, darling.
07:36The Phantom shot a human?
07:38He must be slipping in his old age.
07:42Just a moment.
07:43How can a human replace one of our biots without you noticing?
07:47Don't you keep count?
07:48Why should he?
07:50A biot is a biot is a biot.
07:52I can change the security system to detect humans.
07:56But it'll add ten days to our schedule.
07:58Don't be stupid.
08:00The entrance pavilion isn't finished on time.
08:02The city inspectors will find the reactor and shut down all of Cyberville.
08:06So forget about humans dressing up as biots.
08:10And concentrate on crushing the Phantom like the insect he is.
08:16As you wish.
08:17I'll upload a full report for your analytical.
08:19Be afraid.
08:36I've come to say...
08:38I'm sorry.
08:39I don't understand.
08:42I don't understand.
08:43For shooting you.
08:44I didn't know that you were human.
08:47Am I?
08:48I don't know anymore.
08:50Why were you pretending to be a biot?
08:53Maximum Inc. stole my life from me.
08:55Stole my husband, my children.
08:59Maximum confiscated all the land around our animal clinic for Cyberville.
09:04Soon there weren't even any stray animals to treat.
09:06We had no work.
09:09No food.
09:11Then a scavenger said if I'd take work as a biot,
09:13I could earn enough credits for Eric to take our children to another city-state.
09:17Where they'd be safe.
09:21But disguising yourself as a biot is dangerous.
09:25Illegal.
09:26I did what I had to.
09:28And I'd do it again.
09:30For the children.
09:32May I see your hands?
09:34Oh.
09:36They're radiation burns.
09:38Biots are paid with warm fusion battery cells.
09:40We all trade them to the scavengers for food and credits.
09:43What happens to the biots you replace?
09:46The scavengers dismantle most of them for parts.
09:49But some of them, I don't know.
09:52We've heard these rumors about a self-aware biot who can make other biots self-aware too.
09:57He goes around like a teacher saying that self-aware biots are alive.
10:03But that can't be true, can it?
10:05Otherwise, when I took that biot's job, I stole its life too.
10:11Just like Maxim stole mine.
10:13I don't know.
10:14But I'll find out.
10:16For both of us.
10:18There.
10:28Your transmitter's all installed and working.
10:31You're all set, silver girl.
10:33I feel ridiculous.
10:34I didn't become an enforcer to play dress-up.
10:37Crime is crime, kid.
10:38Yeah, I guess so.
10:40If Maxim and Inc. Lily is risking human lives by making them work as biot, someone's got to stop them.
10:45He'll be my backup, right?
10:46I'll monitor your audio.
10:50But you've still got a partner.
10:52All he needs is some camouflage.
10:56But still, buddy, if I've got to look silly, then so do you.
11:00Kid, where you vid what the smart mic recorded in the entrance pavilion?
11:18Rebecca Madison's evil knows no bounds.
11:21Come on, Garand.
11:22What could be worse than the Maximum Era?
11:24That.
11:34This is Cruz.
11:40I'm getting a weird energy reading in the pavilion.
11:42And why does Grant need radiation gear?
11:49I can't believe Rebecca's insane enough to put a transuranic reactor in the middle of Metropia.
12:04They can't be that dangerous, can they?
12:06Even during the resource wars, no civilized city-state dared use such reactors.
12:12They're so unstable that if their safety controls fail...
12:14Garand!
12:15The safety controls!
12:17Analytical.
12:20Magnified.
12:21The reactor safety controls were hit by Graf Power Blast.
12:32If Rebecca tries to start the reactor without them, it could flood the construction site with deadly radiation.
12:38I've got to deactivate it.
12:40It is too dangerous, Grant.
12:42An unstable reactor can become operational at any moment.
12:46Let Rebecca's bias be irradiated.
12:48I can't.
12:49There are humans working at that site, disguised as biots.
12:53Then I will go with you.
12:54Not this time.
12:56If I don't make it back, I need to know there's someone left to carry on the Phantom's fight.
13:06He'll be okay.
13:08He has to be.
13:19Bad news, Mother.
13:35Your newest toy is broken.
13:38And which toy is that, my darling boy?
13:41Your ultimate crowd control device, the transuranic reactor, could blow up at any moment.
13:48What?
13:49Are you near it?
13:51Of course not.
13:52Baudelaire is allergic to lethal radiation.
13:55Well, as long as you're safe, and I'm safe, what's the problem?
14:01Get me, Graft.
14:06We need to stabilize the reactor.
14:08I want you to activate it at once.
14:10That should do it.
14:11Without safety controls, the radiation surge will kill every human on the construction site.
14:15Good thinking, Graft.
14:17That would be bad publicity.
14:19Evacuate the humans.
14:20Our biots will be damaged, too.
14:23Really, Graft?
14:24Our biots are always being damaged.
14:26Melt them down for recycling.
14:28Order new ones.
14:30And what about the humans who are disguising themselves as biots?
14:33They're just homeless misfits.
14:35Why should we care about them any more than we care about biots?
14:39Do as I say.
14:40Now!
14:46Mrs. Cruz, I'm finished for the shift.
14:50But I've got to check out those energy readings.
14:52Hmm.
14:54Tired biot.
14:55Now that's realistic programming.
14:58Attention.
14:59All organic life forms must leave the construction site at once.
15:03Human beings, this means you.
15:12They certainly don't make them like they used to.
15:15Do they, Baudelaire?
15:20Help me.
15:24Shhh.
15:25Shhh, boy.
15:27Don't give it away.
15:29DVL?
15:30What are you?
15:32You're undercover, aren't you?
15:34But where's Sagan?
15:36He died.
15:37But why?
15:39She's in danger.
15:42Oh!
15:42What do you want?
15:43I have been monitoring Maximum's communications channels.
15:47Bionts are in danger.
15:49I must deactivate the transuranic reactor at once.
15:52That is the danger I told you about.
15:54That's where I'm going.
15:56Humans are in danger too. Come on.
15:58No, it's too dangerous, boy. You stay here.
16:01I'll find Sagan. I promise.
16:06My, my.
16:08Look what Baudelaire dragged in.
16:10A Bionts. So what?
16:12Ah, but this is the new Cinderella model.
16:16Cruze! I can't tell you how happy I am to finally meet you.
16:20For the last time.
16:22Help!
16:32Look, Baudelaire.
16:34It's almost as if it's pleading for its life.
16:37Aren't Bionts cute when they try to act like humans?
16:42Radiation shockwave in seven minutes.
16:49All organic lifeforms must leave the area.
16:58Sagan, are you all right?
17:01Yeah.
17:02I'm fine.
17:04For about the next six minutes.
17:05You must leave.
17:07I will cause a controlled reactor meltdown.
17:09The radiation will be contained, but it will still be deadly to nearby organics.
17:14Isenberg, the radiation could destroy your brain circuits.
17:19Let the reactor meltdown by itself.
17:21I cannot, Phantom.
17:22There are biots here.
17:24Biots?
17:25They can be melted down and recycled.
17:27Some of them, officer, but not the ones who are self-aware.
17:31They will die.
17:32You are the one Mallory told me about.
17:34The biot teacher.
17:36I am simply Heisenberg.
17:38By remaining here, I can save the biots.
17:41But you must save yourselves.
17:44Good luck.
17:46For now, I must make my own.
17:58Cover your ears, kid.
17:59When I hit the switch, the radiation detectors are going to scream.
18:02Oh, Phantom!
18:11How do you roll this?
18:12Come on, come on.
18:13Mommy, no.
18:14Do you hear that?
18:14Get the technographs.
18:16Oh, my God.
18:16Hurry, hurry.
18:16Will you get that out of there?
18:17Run!
18:22Reactor meltdown in three minutes.
18:25All organic life forms within this facility may wish to stop what they are doing
18:30and take a moment to reflect upon their impeding dance.
18:46That's gunfire.
18:47If Heisenberg can't control the meltdown, he won't be able to contain the radiation.
18:51Can you get a cruiser?
18:52I understand.
18:54I'll wait for your signal.
18:54I'll wait.
18:55I'll wait.
19:00I know, D.D.
19:03Keep him safe.
19:22You've been defeated for the last time.
19:24Meltdown in three minutes.
19:31Organic life forms are invited to sing a hymn at this time.
19:36Heisenberg, the site's evacuated.
19:38Humans and BIOX boats.
19:40You've got to leave.
19:41I'm glad you're here, boy.
19:58I need all the help I can get.
20:00Let me help, too.
20:01What?
20:16This is the Cyberville warning system, wishing all organics a peaceful transition to their
20:21next mode of existence.
20:23Heisenberg!
20:24Twenty seconds and counting.
20:26I've done all I can.
20:27We must leave.
20:31Eight seconds.
20:39I have failed you.
20:41We cannot escape the radiation shockwave in...
20:43Sagan, now!
20:49The Cyberville warning system self-include in operational life.
20:54Program ends.
20:55Excuse me, citizens.
21:01This message is for you.
21:02You are requested to go to the offices of the Walker Family Trust this afternoon.
21:07But why?
21:08The trust requires veterinarians for their animal rescue operation.
21:12You are to present that card at the interview.
21:15Who sent this?
21:16A friend of a friend.
21:18Maximum covered the reactor core with three meters of polycrete, so there's no evidence
21:28of any wrongdoing.
21:29What did the police analyticals think of your report?
21:32They suggested I might need a stress leave.
21:36Phantom, there's a lot more going on in Metropia than we realize, isn't there?
21:41Maximum's not involved in just ordinary criminal activities, are they?
21:44No.
21:45Not ordinary at all.
21:47Where are the stakes?
21:49All that there is, Sagan.
21:51We're fighting for the world.
21:53Yes, we are.
21:54Woof!
