01:30Someone sticks another fucking hood on my head, I swear to God!
01:34Quiet down, Antonio.
01:38We're all safe now.
01:39You can all relax.
01:41Unshackle their wrists, please.
01:44Now, kidnapping is a federal offense.
01:46We're federal agents.
01:48You think I'd go through all this if I didn't know who you were?
01:51Yeah, who the fuck are you?
01:52I'm Diana. Nice to meet you, Jeremy.
01:56And you're welcome, by the way.
02:00Why are we here?
02:01Oh, no, thank you for saving your lives.
02:03Well, that's very disappointing.
02:08Oh, but I love this.
02:15Yes.
02:17There it is, extreme pupil dilation.
02:20You're having a stress response.
02:22Your body is reacting impulsively, fight or flight.
02:27Little sweat.
02:28Your heart rate is ticking up.
02:29We can mimic it, but not quite as authentically.
02:32It's very complex.
02:34We're bleeding into confusion now.
02:39You have questions a lot.
02:42There's fear in there, too.
02:46Apologies.
02:47Sometimes my level of perception can be a bit off-putting.
02:53I'm something of an expert in human behaviors.
02:57You have to be if you're going to build a machine
02:59that can blend in with other humans.
03:05I'm the other side of this tale of two cities.
03:09My name is Dr. Diana Sterling.
03:12Most know me as the mother.
03:15Of what?
03:16My children.
03:18Synthetics.
03:19Though that's a touchy term.
03:21It's cold, clinical.
03:23We've warmed to calling them deacons.
03:29What does that have to do with us?
03:30You, Agent Madsen, are standing at the intersection of humanity.
03:35We have much in common, chiefly, our vested interest
03:38in stopping the man whose actions brought us here today.
03:43Byron Forced.
03:46Long ago, Byron hedged the big bet he made on the world of biotech
03:50by creating a robotics division.
03:52This new toy of his, this transformative drug,
03:56quickly became his new obsession.
03:57He lost interest in my division.
04:01Dr. Lee used living organisms to affect his change.
04:05Me?
04:06I see too many variables and flaws in organic matter
04:10to accomplish much of anything.
04:12Life was always meant to move beyond these bags of blood
04:16and bones, and that is what I'm building.
04:21Building what exactly?
04:22The next generation of life and the bodies that will carry it.
04:29Humanoid machines.
04:30What the fuck?
04:31No, excuse me, Miss White Mama.
04:34No disrespect, I just forgot your name.
04:37I done seen this movie and shit wasn't good.
04:40There's nothing to fear here.
04:44Soon a deacon will be in every home,
04:47augmenting and learning from the human experience.
04:50Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
04:51You dedicated your entire life
04:53to perfecting the line of fucking Roombas.
04:56It's how we merge with the next phase of life.
05:01Organics and robotics.
05:06Think of the life expectancy
05:08when we upload your subconscious to a synthetic
05:10and do away with these messy bodies.
05:15But that's only if we can stop disaster, of course.
05:18Our survival is only possible if we stop Byron.
05:21I've had the assistance of his wife.
05:24He was very sympathetic towards my cause
05:26and helped me with my little prison break today.
05:29Stop him from what?
05:31Releasing the beauty as a pharmaceutical
05:33that every lemming in the world will want.
05:36And that's when he will officially end my division,
05:39the better division, and I cannot let that happen.
05:41Wait, but I didn't take any drug.
05:44Neither did I.
05:45No, you have what appears to be
05:48a version leaked from the lab.
05:53The chance of stopping the sexually transmitted version
05:56was lost long ago,
05:58but early indications show
05:59that because of its instability,
06:01it won't survive long in the wild
06:04before burning itself out.
06:06The pure pharma-derived version
06:08he's planning on selling,
06:10well, that is another story.
06:12Wait, there's a booster?
06:15That would give me more time, right?
06:17She needs one.
06:18I would temper the enthusiasm.
06:21Data shows it likely loses efficacy over time.
06:24I should add, I will make every effort
06:26to get you treatments that do work for all of you.
06:30Extend your lives.
06:33Stop you from...
06:37literally exploding.
06:43Well, that's just if you want to help me.
06:46Tell me when and where.
06:48I'll have tactical on-site,
06:49and we'll take the fucker down.
06:51You're adorable with your search words
06:53and your chain of command.
06:56I'm afraid that plan is a bit too baroque
06:58with our time restraints.
07:00So what are the options?
07:02I'm guessing a simple assassination.
07:04Yes, that's why I chose you.
07:07You have the skills,
07:07and you understand the stakes.
07:09We have one small window.
07:12We cannot let it close.
07:13Beauty Day is in 48 hours.
07:15If he dies, his plan dies with him.
07:17Well, amen.
07:19Good thing I'm here, right?
07:21Get me close enough,
07:22and I'll put a bullet in his head.
07:23He turned on you, threw you away.
07:25You think he's going to let you anywhere near him?
07:28I don't even need to get that close.
07:30All right?
07:30I'm a better shot than any of these motherfuckers.
07:32Thousand yards. Easy.
07:34All right, all right.
07:35Well, the much bigger issue,
07:37to be exact and logical, is this.
07:40He knows who all of you are.
07:42And the level of facial recognition
07:44security software he employs,
07:46well, that's just going to make it even worse.
07:49What about one of these deacons?
07:53You know, Byron was always afraid of that.
07:55So he had a mechanism built into their coding
07:57that makes it impossible,
07:58or at the very least, incredibly difficult
08:00to turn one of his deacons against him.
08:02Well, get me within 100 yards, and I'll do it.
08:04Jordan, no.
08:05He knows what you look like.
08:06He gave me a death sentence.
08:09I don't really have a lot left to lose,
08:10and to be honest, I quite like my pound of flesh
08:12before I fucking explode.
08:13Hey, don't forget about me.
08:14I'm trying to get my two-piece in, too.
08:15Wait, wait, wait.
08:16We've known you for three fucking minutes.
08:20How do we know we can trust you?
08:23You should respect my transparency.
08:26No one knows Byron better than me.
08:28No one.
08:30Plucked from obscurity while chatting on a tech Reddit board,
08:33he saw something in me
08:35and gave me the opportunity of a lifetime.
08:38But when I saw the depths of what he was doing,
08:46we simply cannot unsee such things.
08:51Love.
08:54Anger.
08:56Sadness.
08:58Jealousy.
08:58The whole spectrum of human emotions
09:01is what makes us special
09:02and so deeply flawed.
09:07And yet for such terribly vulnerable creatures,
09:10we so often seem to find incredibly creative ways
09:15of destroying ourselves.
09:18Long ago, we became the first species capable of self-annihilation.
09:22Thus far, we've narrowly avoided it.
09:26If we do not act here,
09:29then I fear the moment will have arrived.
09:35Trust me or not,
09:37is that a gamble you want to make?
09:41We need a plan.
09:44What tack, what weapons.
09:46Tick, tack, tick, tack.
09:50Come on.
09:58Give it to me.
10:01What?
10:02No, that's way too risky.
10:03If I get infected, he won't recognize me.
10:05I can walk right up to him.
10:10I was hoping you'd say that.
10:11Cooper, no.
10:12I'm not letting you do this.
10:13No.
10:14It's the best option.
10:15It's not safe.
10:15It's way too risky.
10:16You have no idea if it's safe.
10:17Jordan.
10:19I can't think of anything worse
10:20than a life without you.
10:24So maybe it's a shorter one.
10:27But at least we do it together.
10:52It's a big needle.
10:54Mm-hmm.
11:14Wait.
11:15Wait.
11:20I'll do it.
11:25But not like this.
12:07I just want to say something, just that when I changed,
12:17I was so scared and uncomfortable in my own skin but you made me feel like you'd care
12:30for me and love me no matter what, you saw me, the real me, you're the only one that ever
12:44has.
12:50So I just want you to know that when you change, it's not going to matter what you look like,
12:57I'm just going to love you the same way that I do now.
13:55I'll just be a minute.
13:57Of course.
14:36Oh, my God.
15:10Oh, my God.
15:42Hey.
15:45Hey.
15:53I'm sorry.
15:55Jordan.
15:55Jordan!
15:57Jordan!
15:59Jordan!
15:59How are you going?
16:00Just stop this.
16:01I'll fucking shoot the guy myself.
16:02Wait, wait, wait.
16:03Stop.
16:04You can't expect me to do this.
16:05I cannot just fuck some deadly virus into you.
16:07That's insane.
16:08That's the fucking plan, baby.
16:09What, so it's just up to us to save the world?
16:11I cannot do this.
16:11I cannot do this.
16:15I cannot do that.
16:18Oh, my God.
16:24I cannot do this.
16:38I cannot.
16:39and chairs won't buy all of the dust this is a place where i don't feel alone
16:54this is a place where i feel at home
17:12i built a home for you for me

19:53You need to get her now!
19:55It's happening!
19:56Spock!
20:20Shit.
20:20He's still going.
20:21Mine was like a crazy fever.
20:23This just seems way worse.
20:24How long has he been at it?
20:26Hours.
20:32Get him to the bank.
20:33Get him to the bank.
20:34Get him to the bank.
20:39Hold his legs.
20:40Hold his legs.
20:41Come on, grab his arm.
20:42Hold down!
20:44Ah!
20:46Ah!
20:47Ah!
20:48Shit!
20:53It's worse.
20:55Yeah, way worse.
20:58Hang in there.
20:59We got you.
21:00How can we do something?
21:01No, no, no, no.
21:01We gotta let it run its course.
21:02We gotta let him go through it.
21:04Shit.
21:04Oh, shit.
21:04Oh, shit.
21:05It's starting, man.
21:06Bathroom.
21:07Yeah.
21:07Get him in the bathroom.
21:08Get him in the bathroom.
21:10It's a tightest face.
21:11Let's move for him to hurt him something.
21:13Oh, God.
21:13Just leave him in.
21:14Close it.
21:15Close it.
21:19Close it.
21:47Let's go.
22:17Let's go.
23:06Let's go.

23:54Let's go.
24:02Let's go.
24:19Looks like he's struggling to get out.
