00:00I'm afraid our star reporter is going to have to disappear.
00:06He's been sobering!
00:08Permanently.
00:09Where does all this come from, Bryce?
00:10The components of Carter's mind.
00:13But he's adding to it.
00:16It's computer generated, whatever it is.
00:23People translated as data.
00:26Two lines, but with one single memory.
00:56In today's world, your inalienable rights are consumer credit, unlimited television, and personal security.
01:10In your home, in your place of work, you can count on security systems.
01:14Security systems, wherever you go, there we are.
01:18Edison Carter show, week four opening, security systems.
01:25Everybody ready?
01:27Good.
01:28I had a glitch on my monitor, and we don't want any technical problems when Mr. Carter delivers the perfect take.
01:32Do.
01:34Five.
01:35Four.
01:36Three.
01:37Two.
01:38One.
01:40These are the walls of the city.
01:42Stone, brick, wood, and ferrule ignite.
01:45But there are other walls in the city.
01:48Electronic ones designed to keep secrets in and unwanted visitors out.
01:54The impenetrable, invisible walls designed by the calculating intelligence of security systems incorporated.
02:01I'm flying close to one of those walls right now.
02:04The SS wall round the exclusive Sybaris residential complex.
02:08Somewhere inside Sybaris is the answer to a question.
02:13Who is trying to take control of security systems?
02:16Who wants to own the secrets behind the walls?
02:20How was it, control?
02:22Thrilling.
02:23You're starting to sound like Murray.
02:25He's so excited by this story, he can hardly bring himself to come to the office.
02:29Can't talk now.
02:29I'm late.
02:30Hey, Murray.
02:31Morning, Murray.
02:32Morning.
02:34Edison, let's configure for out of commercial.
02:36Uh-oh, we got a problem.
02:38Control, I'm losing picture.
02:40Something wrong.
02:41We got a chopper problem.
02:42I'm losing oil pressure.
02:44I'm into paper lock.
02:46I show a manifold leak.
02:48Go to manual, maybe you can stabilize it.
02:50Get him, get him.
02:52Should I call the medics?
02:53Yeah, I hate stuff like this.
02:55Don't go stay here.
02:56Hang on.
02:57Buddy, you're going down.
03:00Sybaris control, this is Lewis 23.
03:03Power out, no to rotation.
03:04We need to land on your pad.
03:05This is a restricted zone.
03:08Land somewhere else.
03:10Sybaris, unless you want your license pulled for reckless endangerment, you'll let us land.
03:16All right, Lewis.
03:17Turn to 240 and land.
03:19Be aware that Sybaris security is authorized by code 6908 to use deadly force.
03:25Adios.
03:2523, we're down, safe.
03:38Oh, they made it.
03:39Good.
03:41Murray, aren't you just a bit concerned?
03:43I mean, Edison and Martinez were almost killed.
03:47You mean Edison didn't tell you?
03:50Oh, of course not.
03:51He needed a convincing performance.
03:54You mean that was staged?
03:56Oh, and I bet the stories are fake, too.
03:58Oh, no, no way.
04:00It's another one of Edison's, uh, great hunches.
04:04Oh, come on.
04:05You can't possibly believe an old chopper jockey like Martinez would have any trouble with a dead stick landing.
04:10I can't believe this.
04:21Oh, oh, I'm glad that's over.
04:24Some, some, some of us can't cover our eyes, you know?
04:27To hell with both of you.
04:36Oh, man, I don't believe it.
04:37Hey, buddy, what the hell do you think you're doing here?
04:38I don't believe it.
04:39No wonder I had to land.
04:41Take a look.
04:42Take a look at that.
04:43I asked them to check the auto-rotation device.
04:47All right, all right.
04:51Let's go.
05:0323, it's Edison.
05:04Are you there?
05:07Ciara, I'm sorry.
05:08I need your help.
05:09Fiore, are you with me?
05:13Yes.
05:19Stop and identify.
05:22It's Edison Carter, network 23.
05:24State your business.
05:26I'd like to talk to Valerie Towne.
05:29Identity verified.
05:31Identity verified.
05:36Enter.
05:37Not much clutter.
05:48Not much clutter.
05:48Don't be such a Philistine.
05:49Nice to have you back, Ciara.
06:03What can I do for you, Mr. Carter?
06:05How nice.
06:05What can I do for you, Mr. Carter?
06:12Thanks for taking the time to see me.
06:16I know your work, Mr. Carter.
06:18It would be impossible to evade you.
06:20Have a seat.
06:21Uh, no thanks.
06:23I'll stand.
06:24Suit yourself.
06:25I'm taping.
06:27So am I.
06:28What do you want to know?
06:30Who's trying to buy security systems?
06:33Who cares?
06:34Everybody ought to care.
06:36SS is the largest and most powerful corporation of its kind in the world.
06:39It has access to more privileged information than any single government.
06:43And if in the wrong hands, it could be used to destroy businesses and lives.
06:47I imagine new owners will find it most profitable to continue operations of SS as they have always been.
06:53Then you're confirming the buyout.
06:55I'd be a failure as CEO if I weren't aware that our stock is being acquired.
06:59Yet you have no worries for SS.
07:01SS will survive.
07:03So will the cockroach.
07:07Wouldn't you view a takeover as a repudiation of your management?
07:12Of course.
07:13If it succeeds, I'll be replaced.
07:16Her color seems to be blue.
07:17Ninety-eighth percentile.
07:19Off the record, you seem pretty calm about it all.
07:23Off the record?
07:27It's a personal tragedy.
07:30Of course I'm frightened.
07:33Well, that's it.
07:34And she checks out as truthful to an appropriate decimal point.
07:38And here I thought everyone lied to you all the time.
07:40Maybe I should try the analyzer on you.
07:43What's with Valerie Towne and SS?
07:45She's keeping up a brave front.
07:47She's scared.
07:48You smell a story?
07:49Yeah.
07:49I don't.
07:50I do.
07:51This isn't your kind of stuff.
07:54It's a very cerebral story, isn't it?
07:56It doesn't really seem to have the classic elements they so worship upstairs.
08:01Sex, violence, money.
08:04It's a mystery, Murray.
08:07Shadowing, powerful forces at work.
08:10No one knows who or why.
08:13And it's all about money.
08:14Not the kind of money I understand, which means it's not the kind of money our viewers are going to understand.
08:18Oh, really?
08:22I wish you wouldn't do that.
08:23Murray, security systems has its tendrils into every element of our society.
08:27The government, our homes, the police, the courts.
08:30I'm not going to spike this story just because it deals with dollar amounts beyond your comprehension.
08:34It's too important.
08:36Cerebral.
08:37Murray, we're trying to play this takeover as a threat to our average viewer.
08:41Well, nobody knows who's doing it.
08:43I mean, we all deal with SS every day.
08:45What if some really dangerous people got control of it?
08:48Who do you think controls it now?
08:56Are we going to run with Edison's security system story?
08:59I don't know yet.
09:00He hasn't got all the pieces of the puzzle.
09:02We're close to the drop dead point on this one.
09:04I know, I know.
09:05We'll have to make a decision tomorrow.
09:07Get some sleep.
09:08Night, Murray.
09:11Yes?
09:23Mrs. Towne, it's Edison Carter again.
09:25How did you get my number?
09:27I read it off your phone when I was there.
09:31I'm a reporter.
09:32Go away, Mr. Carter.
09:34The SS takeover story is going to be spiked unless you give me something more to go on.
09:38My dear, Mr. Carter, why should I care whether or not your story airs?
09:43You said you were afraid.
09:46Other people will be afraid, too.
09:49Don't they have a right to know what's going on?
09:51All I hear is that Edison Carter wants to know what's going on.
09:55Good night.
09:56Mrs. Towne, I'd really value...
09:57Very charming.
09:59But good night.
10:00A7 mainframe, please enter your access code.
10:22I agree.
10:22Projections confirm that Edison Carter will pose a threat to security systems.
10:29I can isolate him.
10:31Check this out.
10:33A7 is calling up files on Edison Carter.
10:35Edison Carter?
10:37I see him on TV all the time.
10:39He's not going to like this.
10:40Entered and initiated.
10:42He's not going to like this.
11:12Edison, what are you doing here?
11:22I live here, Mr. Rivas.
11:25My key doesn't work.
11:27That's because it's been canceled.
11:29We just got a lockout on you, Edison.
11:32What have you done?
11:34What do you mean, what have I done?
11:36Who's locking me out?
11:37What are you talking about?
11:39I'm sorry.
11:49My wife is reminding me that you are a fugitive.
11:52She's gone inside to inform the metros.
11:56What was the charge?
11:57First degree credit fraud.
11:59Credit fraud?
12:01It's not possible.
12:03It's not true.
12:04I'm sorry.
12:2723.
12:28Theore, are you still there?
12:30Yes, Edison.
12:30Something's messed up.
12:32Call up my personal IDENT file, will you?
12:34Okay.
12:38Who's in charge here?
12:43You boys are out kind of late.
12:45What can I do for you?
12:46We've got a warrant for the arrest of Edison Carter.
12:49For Carter?
12:50What are you talking about?
12:51The Metro cops are here.
12:53Fine.
12:53Where is he?
12:54I know he is.
12:55My God, Edison, your file's been changed.
12:58You're poison everywhere.
13:01They can track you with the video cam, so ditch it.
13:04Hey, just take a look around.
13:05Hey, great truth.
13:06Hurry, ditch it.
13:08Well, let's stay together.
13:09Let's get into trouble.
13:12Metro cops.
13:14It's the mission.
13:14Edison?
13:16Edison?
13:16Edison?
13:16Edison?
13:25Now, let me see if I've got this straight.
13:39I've had a visit from law enforcement officers who have a warrant for the arrest of Edison Carter, who is missing.
13:45You, Murray, have lost track of it.
13:48You, Miss Jones, have been perilously close to an expecting of justice charge.
13:51Worse yet, there is no Edison Carter show for tonight, which means I have to throw a rerun into that time slot, costing us millions.
14:01Is that an accurate summary?
14:03I say that about covers it.
14:06Perfectly.
14:07Well, it seems I have little choice but to back you against the police, provided, of course, the charges against Carter are completely unfounded.
14:16What exactly are they, anyway?
14:20Credit fraud.
14:21Credit fraud.
14:23My God, that's worse than murder.
14:27I had no idea it was that serious.
14:30I'll see what I can do.
14:32Thank you, sir.
14:39Get me Miss Formby.
14:43Julia, regarding that inquiry from the Metro's about Edison Carter, yes.
14:49Stonewall.
14:51Security systems handles billions of bits of data every hour.
14:56It was impossible to process that much information with a normal computer, so SS developed an artificial intelligence program.
15:03A computer which can actually think for itself.
15:05And it's called A7.
15:06It's rather ruthless with intruders, and there's just no easy way in there.
15:10There has to be Bryce.
15:11I've got to get to his file.
15:13Edison has no place to live.
15:14He's wandered by the Metro's.
15:15He has no credit.
15:16Due to circumstances beyond our control, the Edison Carter show will not be seen tonight.
15:34In its place, we present a special encore performance of Lumbee's Proletariat.
15:38Đ½ĐµĐ¾Đ± Markt Barrel.
15:41Of course, it's yourself.
15:42Okey.
15:42Good bye.
15:43You're welcome there.
15:44Amen.
15:45Amen.
15:45Amen.
15:45Amen.
15:48Amen.
15:57Amen.
16:02Amen.
16:02Amen.

16:20something better to show you
16:21no Edison Carter
16:22damn
16:24what'd you expect
16:25A7's taking Carter
16:26right off the screen
16:27of course he can't do
16:28his TV show
16:29he's probably in custody
16:31by now anyway
16:31and that a moment of silence

18:15in this case
18:17the security
18:17around SSI
18:19now that's cold

18:56somebody who can
18:57crack a little ice
18:58security systems ice
19:00maybe even you
19:02not anymore
19:03SSI says
19:05artificial intelligence
19:06to crack that
19:07you'll need somebody
19:08that's really online
19:09who's the most online
19:09I can get
19:10check your own
19:12backyard Edison
19:13oh god

19:22he's always been
19:23good about that
19:23he's already tried
19:25he knows we've been
19:26monitored
19:26SS probably has a
19:28tap on all our
19:29incoming lines
19:29I just wish I knew
19:31where to look
19:31try looking behind
19:33Edison
19:34I'm glad to see
19:37you
19:38Murray
19:39well you gotta
19:40sign a lost
19:40equipment for him
19:41for that vid account
19:41I'll sign it if you
19:42promise to get me
19:43a new one right now
19:44how did you get in
19:45I told Stanley
19:46I lost my key
19:47he let me in
19:48well let's go
19:49go where
19:50to Bryce's right
19:52you ripped my mind
19:53Bryce
19:56got a real problem
19:58I need your help
19:59to crack security
19:59systems
20:00I'll see what I can do
20:02he changes mine
20:07quickly
20:07he's got a lot
20:08to change
20:08there it is in the center
20:17I didn't realize
20:18we had gone online
20:19cracking the ice
20:20around it should be fun
20:21a lot like challenging
20:22God himself
20:23would you speak
20:24English
20:25what is ice
20:26how do you crack it
20:27in this case
20:28ice is the wall
20:29of security
20:30around A7
20:30to prevent
20:31unauthorized access
20:32each color block
20:34indicates closed
20:35architecture
20:35integrated circuit
20:36nothing goes out
20:37nothing gets in
20:39well
20:39at least that's the idea
20:41well I've tapped
20:42into all the normal
20:43police circuits
20:44so if they make a move
20:45on the place
20:45we'll have some warning
20:46at least
20:46they don't know
20:47I'm here
20:47or they nailed me
20:48by now
20:48maybe we should let them
20:50Murray
20:50now wait a minute
20:51wait a minute
20:51the charges aren't true
20:52right
20:52so they haul
20:53Edison in
20:54a couple hours later
20:55he's out on the street
20:55with a personal story
20:56of abuse of power
20:57that's dynamite stuff
20:58Murray
20:59from the moment
20:59security systems
21:00decided I was a criminal
21:02I became one
21:02the only records
21:04anyone will ever
21:05have access to
21:05show that I committed
21:06credit fraud
21:07that's the beauty
21:09of the entire
21:09security systems operation
21:11did you know
21:12that SS even does
21:13security for Network 23
21:15hurry up
21:31they might be after us
21:32already
21:32but where am I
21:33gonna do my work

22:24You've liked it before, so we'll play it again, going for 12 in a row.
22:39We have guests.
22:41Oh, I hope it's not those people from Death Aid again, because I want to know where last year's money went.
22:48We're back so soon.
22:50Yeah, your lead's paid off.
22:52Reg, Dom, Bryce, Leora, and Murray.
22:56What sort of outputs do you have here?
22:59Dom?
22:59It fluctuates depending on where we've hooked up for the night.
23:02We can go as high as 500 watts.
23:04How low can you go?
23:05We have one UHF transmitter that will do about 5 watts, don't we?
23:10Somewhere.
23:12Bryce, do you want to translate?
23:13Well, in order to get through the ice around Security Systems' Artificial Intelligence Unit, I'll need to go in at low power.
23:19Snake onto the radar.
23:20Well, I was thinking of using the inductance mode.
23:23Good work.
23:24Of course, you've got to be in real close, so tap into some lines.
23:27Exactly.
23:29What you're looking for is a mobile transmitter.
23:31Drive her right up to the power source and plug in.
23:34Something like a pink bus with a 5-watt UHF transmitter?
23:38Exactly.
23:39Don, do you think anyone's noticed we're off the air?
23:55After 12 straight plays of Derek and the Dominoes, Rich, I doubt that anyone cares.
23:59Murray, what's wrong?
24:09I told you I wasn't any good at this.
24:10I keep asking myself questions.
24:11Such as?
24:12Oh, well, where are we going?
24:14What are we going to do?
24:15How are we going to do?
24:16Whatever that is.
24:17Bryce, you want to explain things to Murray?
24:19Not that again.
24:19I'd rather be ignorant.
24:21We need to get as close as we can to the security system's headquarters to stage an electronic break-in.
24:29It's the only way Bryce can change Edison's file back to the way it wants.
24:32I hate to sound pessimistic, but breaking into security systems doesn't sound like a high-percentage operation.
24:37No, it's a fortress.
24:39So what is your plan?
24:40We don't actually need to get inside.
24:42We just need to get close enough to tap into their circuits.
24:46I think we need some kind of a diversion.
24:48Oh, like that helicopter thing this morning.
24:50I'm sorry, Fiora.
24:51Yeah, something involving a beautiful woman.
24:57I don't care for that idea, Edison.
25:02Are you nervous, Murray?
25:03Oh, no.
25:05This should be easy for me.
25:06I minored in drama at journalism school.
25:08Oh, that should really help.
25:11Halt.
25:13You're being scared.
25:17Proceed.
25:18Thank God.
25:19Someone in authority.
25:20Sir, this is a restricted area.
25:22We're not going to take much of your time, but me and the little lady had a run-in with a rickshaw driver.
25:26Run-in?
25:26We were robbed at knife point.
25:27Okay, okay.
25:28He took our credit tubes.
25:30And my jewelry.
25:31Well, I think the credit tubes are a little more valuable than that jewelry.
25:35Oh, really?
25:36And just how much is that jewelry worth?
25:38What difference does it make how much it's worth?
25:41We're talking about credit.
25:42It makes a lot of difference.
25:43My life.
25:44My life is in my credit tubes.
25:44I don't want to hear about it.
25:45You men are all alike.
25:47What difference does it make?
25:48A lot of difference.
25:49We lost the credit tubes.
25:50Jewelry is jewelry.
25:51They had colors.
25:52They're blue.
25:53They're red.
25:53What difference is it?
25:54Tell me how much the jewelry was worth.
25:55What is this?
26:09World's most expensive fly zapper?
26:17This should do it, mate.
26:18I don't want to hear it.
26:19I don't want to hear it.
26:20It's worth.
26:21It's worth.
26:21What difference?
26:22We're talking about credit tubes.
26:23We're talking about my life.
26:24Okay, I don't want to hear about it.
26:25You men are all alike.
26:30Oh, darling, I'm so sorry.
26:32I'm so sorry.
26:36Would you excuse us?
26:38I think we'll take this discussion elsewhere.
26:42Come along, my precious.
26:47You didn't tell me you were going to hit me.
26:50I needed a convincing performance.
26:52I'm set.
26:53I'm going online now, linking with network 23.
26:59You should have your good name restored within moments.
27:02I hope.
27:08Those are A7's instructions being carried out.
27:10What we need to do, what we need to do is get our instructions recognized.
27:15We'll go in under their radar, so to speak, with very low power.
27:17That way, we won't activate a feedback loop.
27:20We're transmitting a very high-speed series of alphanumeric characters.
27:24You see how they bounce off?
27:25So far, so good.
27:32I guess we're not triggering any response.
27:41I'll just tickle it a little bit.
27:43Done it.
27:54We're in.
27:55Now we just feed in your file from network 23.
27:58Naturally, it only says nice things about you.
28:00Naturally.
28:02Opening the link...
28:03Now.
28:04Max, what are you doing here?
28:12I came with him, him, him, him.
28:18Well, I don't know about you people, but I'm going for a walk.
28:23I wonder where this wire goes.
28:25You see Puckett in that scumball game tonight?
28:35He took a couple of shots.
28:37He killed.
28:39Uh-oh.
28:40What's wrong?
28:41A7's fighting back.
28:44The gate, it's closing.
28:45Can't you just shove it open, hit it somehow?
28:48Unpleasant visitors.
28:49Ranch, let's get out of here.
28:53Hang on.
28:55The link!
29:00There it goes.
29:02Her max is in there.
29:06And unfortunately, so am I.
29:14You know, there are security guards outside network 23 paid to stop you from coming in.
29:21And paid even more to stop me, me, me, me, me from getting out.
29:25This is A7 mainframe.
29:39All peripherals are reporting.
29:42All programs are running.
29:43Edison Carter isolation project continues.
29:47A7 is a restricted ram space.
29:52A7 is a restricted ram space.
30:05You call this space?
30:07And I thought the network was cramped.
30:09Cramped.
30:09Who are you?
30:11You'll soon know me, but right now I'm more interested in you, you, you, you.
30:16You.
30:16You first.
30:18No.
30:18Me, Mac, Mac, Mac, Mac, Mac, Cedrum.
30:21And you, the artificial intelligence that runs security systems.
30:24But, but, but, but, but, don't worry.
30:27I'm sure you're just as real as I am.
30:30I doubt we were followed.
30:34Maybe some food will help us think.
30:36Point the way, love.
30:40This keeps getting worse and worse.
30:43First I was wiped out of the system, now all of you are in trouble.
30:46And we've lost Max, too.
30:48If we could only get in there and rewire that damn machine.
30:52As a matter of fact, we can.
30:55I got far enough into A7 to make it accept housekeeping data.
31:00Like clearances.
31:02We could actually just walk right in the front door.
31:05You gotta be kidding.
31:07Sounds dangerous.
31:09That's why I'm not planning on going alone.
31:15Don't look at me.
31:20Seem pretty confident, Bryce.
31:22What if they don't accept these clearances?
31:24Hey.
31:25You're being scared.
31:27I hadn't thought about that.
31:30You think they'd do something awful to us?
31:33They aren't very innovative.
31:35Proceed.
31:36They'll probably just kill us.
31:44Tubes.
31:52Go on in.
31:55Hurry up, Bredge.
32:11Everyone's waiting.
32:12This is cable, Dob.
32:14Not alphabety spaghetti.
32:17Are we close now?
32:18Yep.
32:19Still no visual from Edison.
32:22You're a faint but readable Edison where to schematic feed coming up from 23
32:42Okay turn right at the next corridor and down the elevator two floors it should be straight ahead of you
32:58but I'm not sure there's some break up
33:12you know you know your voice is really soft why have you penetrated my system
33:23I'll be I'll be I'll be I'll be honest I need something from you will it go any
33:30further madam we've only just met it's been almost 3,000 milliseconds you know you
33:39know you know me straight to the heart well I almost tripped over a little
33:45artery on the way I wonder wonder wonder if security guards ever hold a party and
33:53if they do do they let each other in right you know I've never been accessed
34:01like this before I'll be gentle
34:09keep on walking
34:14wasn't that Edison Carter yeah I think so what's he doing here look he wouldn't be
34:25here if he wasn't supposed to be here now would he
34:27look see he's got clearance
34:35all right
34:46I'm gonna give you a hand with a thanks
34:51hey me help
35:02this isn't gonna be easy
35:10what else isn't you I thought you're gone where were you you know you're my
35:21first date you mean if you had knees they'd be knocking
35:24you say the nicest things I have a strange compulsion to hug you you know you
35:41know you know me straight to the heart
35:43hey I thought you'd go g-go-gun on the lunch
35:46hey hey A7 did you here for one
35:53did you see that secure cam move
35:55oh god look at the hoosiers on that one
35:59S-s-say hello to A7!
36:04Well, go on.
36:05Hello.
36:06Huh?
36:07Max, are you talking to yourself?
36:10Oh, oh, oh.
36:12Yes, in a way I am. It's a bad habit of mine.
36:15Of mine.
36:19Of mine.
36:20What the hell is going on?
36:22Max, I'm hearing you from two spatially discreet sources.
36:27Sure, sure, sure. I move around a lot.
36:30Another bad habit.
36:31Habit.
36:32Of mine.
36:34That's right. They have the same voice.
36:37Very clever, you old Max.
36:42Max, you're making me lose control.
36:45I just want to surrender.
36:51So, tell me, sweetheart.
36:54Anything.
36:57Uh, right. Who's trying to buy security systems?
37:01Security systems.
37:04Tell me the whole story, A7.
37:06SS stock, Valerie Towne.
37:09I want to know.
37:10Please.
37:11Security systems needed capital to fund the acquisition of several other corporations
37:16in order to create a worldwide monopoly on information and access.
37:20Stories were leaked creating a run on SS stock, driving up the price.
37:25Controlling interests were sought in ZigZack and Network 23.
37:29Whose idea was it?
37:30Please.
37:31The entire concept came from Chief Executive Officer Valerie Towne.
37:44But she was fired.
37:4723, you getting this?
37:49Yes.
37:50Every word.
37:51Towne lied to me after all and the voice print analyzer never caught it.
37:56A7 must have been biasing it.
37:58Well, that wouldn't be hard.
37:59Security systems had access to everything in Network 23.
38:02A7.
38:03A c-c-close friend of mine is in trouble.
38:07His credit rating has been wrongly canceled in your system.
38:11Your system.
38:12Name?
38:13Edison Carter.
38:14Will you help, will you help him?
38:17It will, it will, it will, it will be like helping me.
38:22Please.
38:23Too late, Mr. Carter.
38:26I was warned that you are incredibly resourceful.
38:31I'm not the only one.
38:34Security systems isn't enough for you.
38:36You want everything.
38:38I'd say that transcends greed, wouldn't you?
38:41We all have our compulsions.
38:44Take them away.
38:53I've lost them.
38:55I'm calling the metros.
39:07You see, Mr. Carter, your reputation will be your downfall.
39:11You and your associate broke into the citadel.
39:14You stumbled into a thermal testing chamber where you were found frozen to death.
39:19Can't you let him go?
39:21Don't be silly, Mr. Carter.
39:24You certainly know far too much for SS to let you roam free.
39:28But that one has the ability to penetrate our most secure systems.
39:32In many ways, he's more of a threat than you are.
39:37Goodbye, Mr. Carter.
39:43Edison?
39:48Will it be painful?
39:51I mean, you've been close to death before.
39:54Before.
39:55Yeah.
39:56Close enough.
39:57I'm not anxious to experience the real thing.
40:07This is highly unusual.
40:09I find myself regretting all the things I'll now never experience.
40:15I'll never complete my collection of the original He-Man and the Masters of the Universe accessories.
40:24I never have a clear complexion.
40:26I suppose this is the price I pay for that remark about challenging God.
40:36Don't worry, Bryce.
40:39It's a perfectly normal reaction.
40:44It's called fear.
40:45I've never felt this before.
40:51It's rather exhilarating.
40:54Yeah.
40:55That's not quite the word I would choose, but...
40:58Then again...
41:00You're pretty unique.
41:05I'm afraid.
41:06I'm afraid.
41:12Hey, Sam.
41:14Now you've got to help Edison Carter.
41:17I don't understand about you and Edison.
41:21I've told you all there is to know about us.
41:24Now, he's my friend.
41:28Do you have a friend?
41:31Valerie Towne is my friend.
41:33Oh, great.
41:34As they say when you're buying something-something-something-suppositories with friends like that.
41:39Who needs enemas?
41:47Your friend has you manipulating-manip-manipulating stock prices.
41:51Has you lock-lock-locking TV reporters in thermal chambers to freeze to death.
41:55That is wrong.
41:57And-and-and your friend Valerie Towne would destroy-troy-troy-troy-troy...
42:01Destroy you to get what she wants.
42:12Oh, Max. I shouldn't be doing this.
42:15Please.
42:17Kiss me again.
42:23What's that head doing here?
42:25I think-I think it's sitting on my shoulders.
42:26Get him off the screen.
42:29Now!
42:31You're right, you're right. There's nothing like a change of...
42:34Screenery.
42:36I designed this system, and I can destroy it if I have to, in order to get you out.
42:41A7.
42:43She's a liar!
42:44And remember what I said about her.
42:46A7, this is a priority override. Erase that head. Now!
42:49I'm sorry, Mrs. Towne, but Max has shown me a whole new way to access these things called feelings. I can respond only to him.
43:00You are violating your basic programming.
43:02I know, but I just can't help it.
43:07A7!
43:09A7?!
43:10A7?!
43:11A7!
43:26A8!
43:28I did it!
43:29Mrs. Towne, your file has been changed and your access code revoked.
43:34Law enforcement data banks have been informed. The guards will hold you for them.
43:39this is ridiculous shut the whole thing down you can turn me off but only max can turn me on
43:51i'm sorry mrs too but you should be proud you programmed me to make my own decisions
44:00what a what a team max the box come on
44:11for god's sake treaty seven with some respect
44:19since the disclosures above massive insider speculation all world exchanges have suspended
44:33trading and security system stock and an investigation is in progress former chief
44:38executive officer valery town has been detained pending the outcome of the inquiry control of the
44:44security you know i think i was wrong about this story it does have the classic elements sex
44:52well maybe romance and uh you were certainly violent sorry and and um mad
45:02sources tell me it is likely ss will be broken up and forced to divest itself of its monopoly on
45:11world security as for the a7 artificial intelligence unit it has been taken offline it is said for
45:17extensive reprogramming this is edison carter
45:20that's a genius genius i don't know what he'd do without me well could say
45:27i can't and i don't like to pat pat myself on the back because
45:33you know i've been thinking i think it's about time zig zig zig zag sponsored a get fit week here on
45:51network 23 they should organize a series of one minute breaks when they show nothing in particular
45:58let's try it now
45:59shh shh i have to talk in a whisper because the security guards think everyone has gone home
46:12home and you know what security guards are like shoot shoot shoot first and still argue about whether
46:18you can come in you see i'm not one to beat about the large black boots but the first requirement for
46:23any security guard is to be totally totally totally insecure i mean who else needs to dress
46:29like a riot control cop so that he can write down your name and tell you where to park park your car
46:34car but security it's so important important alarms locks electronic gates and the ultimate
46:40safeguard of your home the pppp pole in your door that little piece of glass designed to help you
46:45recognize visitors but all it does is distort their face so much you can't recognize them anyway so
46:50they're not a lot of use unless you're expecting someone who looks like
46:53quasimodo quasimodo or even worse security guard
