00:00To be continued...
00:30I thought we were best friends.
00:33Ow!
00:34Where is she?
00:35I'm right here, I swear!
00:36Bullshit! Where is she?
00:38Stop!
00:39Something happened to me over there, okay?
00:41A weapon, an infection or something.
00:42It changed me right after we left the bar.
00:45How did you get this?
00:47What did you do to her?
00:50In bed, what'd she call me?
00:53Why aren't you...
00:55You're a dick.
00:57The providual that brings me back to life.
01:14I do love those eyes,
01:16but they are lying to you right now.
01:40Japan.
01:45You have to hear me. Don't just see me.
01:50Are you ready to listen, Anna?
02:31You have to hear me.
02:58You have to hear me.
03:33You have to hear me.
03:35You have to hear me.
03:37Tells me something I don't wanna know.
03:41And I can't see a light at the end for us anymore.
03:50But I can't keep crying all the time.
03:59I can't keep crying all the time.
04:15I can't keep crying all the time.
04:50I can't keep crying all the time.
04:50I can't keep crying all the time.
05:21I can't keep crying all the time.
05:55I can't keep crying all the time.
06:35I can't keep crying all the time.
07:03I can't keep crying all the time.
07:12I can't keep crying all the time.
07:19I can't keep crying all the time.
07:41I can't keep crying all the time.
08:21I can't keep crying all the time.
08:36I can't keep crying all the time.
08:40I can't keep crying all the time.
08:57Understand that for you.
09:10I can't keep crying.
09:10I can't't keep crying all the time seriously.
09:10Stop! Stop, please!
09:23I still don't understand why you didn't call me.
09:26You had any idea how worried I was.
09:28I'm sorry.
09:29I just...
09:31I just panicked.
09:33Jordan.
09:34It's me.
09:35That's what made it so complicated.
09:39Well, because you got all this from fucking?
09:42Well, I...
09:44I mean, I think I got it that way.
09:48Do you think you were targeted?
09:50I don't know.
09:52I woke up and he was gone.
09:55Without a trace.
10:08Was he wearing protection?
10:12I'm your partner.
10:13Not your child.
10:14I'm not trying to shame you.
10:16I'm trying to understand.
10:17Oh, feels like shaming.
10:20Okay.
10:22So let's say you didn't get it because you came into contact with foreign bodily fluids
10:25and he dosed you a drink or sprayed some kind of aerosol.
10:28Fine.
10:30But that doesn't really vibe with how we've seen this thing work.
10:35God, I'm so fucking stupid.
10:38I just...
10:38I saw that guy and he was hot, you know, so I wanted him.
10:43I just...
10:48We all make mistakes.
10:52I was being selfish.
10:57It gets worse.
10:59And after I felt like I was literally burning alive,
11:04I left the hotel and...
11:07That first wave of panic...
11:09Passed.
11:13For a moment, I...
11:15Liked the new me.
11:18A lot.
11:19I mean, you finally feel seen.
11:22Admired.
11:24Even a little invincible.
11:28I mean, here I was.
11:30With some life-altering crisis.
11:33A fucking infection.
11:34Yet being out in the world, no one knew.
11:37Because of how I looked.
11:40In fact, they treated me like I'd won some kind of lottery.
11:46But then...
11:48They stopped seeing me.
11:52And they started seeing this...
11:56Object.
12:04Something they could buy, or win, or just take.
12:12And then I started to hate it.
12:17I hated myself for ever enjoying it in the first place.
12:20I mean, how weak could I be?
12:22How fucked up am I?
12:24It's not just you.
12:26Everyone wants beauty.
12:28It's the oldest, purest form of currency there is.
12:31I don't want any of this.
12:34Was I so bad before?
12:38You were always beautiful.
12:41Yeah.
12:42Wow.
12:44Reading social media, about to turn 40, didn't really feel that way.
12:49To me.
12:52You were always beautiful to me.
13:02Look, I know I got a stupid boob job and stuff.
13:07It was only after I'd turned and I realised I couldn't go back that I realised I...
13:16I liked the old me.
13:30The old you was perfect.
13:33And this one is too.
13:38This one's just...
13:40Different.
13:47How do you feel?
13:51Actually...
13:53Fucking incredible.
13:55Really?
13:55Mm-hmm.
13:56It's the best I've ever felt.
13:58Fuck.
13:59My knees are jealous.
14:08We're gonna make sure it stays that way.
14:15You think I'll end up like the others, those models who literally exploded?
14:21I think it's best we don't waste a lot of time.
14:23How long?
14:24I don't know.
14:28Doing the math on the others, we'll figure a year and a half, maybe two.
14:35Have you talked to anyone else since you've been back?
14:38Family?
14:39Friends?
14:39Uh, no.
14:40You're the first place I went.
14:42Good.
14:42Don't contact anyone.
14:43I think I need to go to the authorities.
14:45There's someone on our team.
14:46No.
14:46No.
14:47The quarantine.
14:47You treat you like a fucking lab rat.
14:50Until we can get a handle on this thing, you're not talking to anyone.
14:55And you're staying with me.
15:06Okay, so, no ID, no passport, new face, and everything else.
15:16How'd you get back here?
15:17Oh, I just blew a couple of TSA folks and they want me right on.
15:21Ah, looks like she got a jokes upgrade, too.
15:25I've been an agent for 15 years, Coop.
15:27Seriously, don't think I know a couple shady guys with planes that like having a fair day
15:31in my favor?
15:32Can't wait for that to bite us in the ass later.
15:38Coop.
15:40Hey, hey.
15:43We should maybe hold off.
15:46Until we know it's safe.
15:50Right?
15:52Right.
15:56Yeah, I wasn't thinking.
15:57Sorry.
16:18Where'd you get that?
16:20My face and my body changed, not my instincts.
16:27I'm left, you're right.
16:42I'm left, you're right.
16:44I'm right.
16:55How's that?
16:59What's that?
17:00What's that?
17:05I'm right.
17:19Why is this happening?
17:43Okay, so everything is confirmed for the weekend at the colony, right?
17:47Yes, sir. All guests should be arriving within the next 24 hours.
17:50Perfect. And there's no cold feet or any other bullshit.
17:54All systems are go, sir. But due to the intensity of the procedure, three days of cutout time from your
17:59schedule have been recommended.
18:02That's fine.
18:04Look, this shit is going to work, right? Like, it better, okay?
18:09Because you've been on an exclusive payroll since COVID, so...
18:13A full presentation of what to expect will be made upon arrival, but yes, we expect a very successful experience.
18:20Good, good, good.
18:21Are there any additions to your medical file? No allergies or new medications, correct?
18:25Look, my assistant Tina will send all that over to you.
18:28We had trouble getting a hold of her this evening.
18:31Oh, yeah. Well...
18:37Yes! Yes! Yes!
18:42Sir? Sir, are you there?
18:45Yeah.
18:46Yes. Um, I will deal with Tina.
18:53And you double-checked with them that they are aware about my pee allergy, right?
18:57You're not allergic. You're just afraid.
19:00That's what everybody says, but that's...
19:01Hang on, Raul! Stop!
19:03Wait! Stop!
19:04Really?
19:05Yes!
19:06Like I'm just some chick who works the corner?
19:08Well, I promise you. Watch this front camera like a hawk.
19:10She does it just to give me shit!
19:14Un-fucking-believable.
19:18Fuck.
19:19Let's go.
19:48Yousssssss.
19:59I can tell if you're lazy or you just don't care.
20:03Your assistant wears a very cheap perfume.
20:08Some kind of talcum powder-based nightmare aroma from the local Sephora.
20:17I can smell it on you, dear.
20:19And from the scent wafting off of you, what's what?
20:23Your third drink?
20:26I gozzle martinis to try to forget you exist, sadly.
20:31It numbs the pain, but it doesn't blot you out of existence.
20:41Look, I'm flying to New York in the morning.
20:45Oh, no. Absolutely not. Not tomorrow.
20:48You have obligations.
20:49No, no, no. I've spent too much money and wasted too much time.
20:53We have a family therapy session because our son has been in the hospital for the past three weeks.
21:01The hospital.
21:04A ten grand a week opioid resort.
21:07He tried to kill himself.
21:09Fuck, Creighton can't even tie a decent knot.
21:12Can he be like his brother and drive a sports franchise into the ground?
21:17You know, just to feel better.
21:24Look, I hate your fucking guts and you hate mine.
21:28And we can't get divorced because we have too much fucking money.
21:33And to lose any of it would be such sweet sorrow.
21:41But I'm bringing you something you're going to like, Mama.
21:45Is it self-driving software that can't tell the difference between a mailbox and a person?
21:52Or an algorithm that drives teen girls to eating disorders?
21:57No.
22:01Generational biotech.
22:02So powerful it'll make medicine obsolete.
22:06Come on, Franny.
22:08When have you seen me this excited about something?
22:09You should try it.
22:11Imagine if I can see just a glimmer of your glory years again.
22:16Maybe I wouldn't have to hire any more slutty assistants.
22:21The idea of the slightest physical contact with you makes me swallow my own vomit.
22:30Okay, well, what about me?
22:33I have to watch you waddling around in your breezy caftans.
22:38Barely disguising a body that's built like a sack of holiday hams.
22:46Mr. Horrifying Monster of a Human Being.
22:51I spent all my life chasing beauty, perfection, diet, trainer, needles, scalpel, elixirs, cleansers.
23:01I thought he would make me feel good, healthy and happy and content.
23:06He would help me find a kind of mate that would help me build the life I wanted, the life
23:11that I deserve.
23:12And then one day you wake up and you realize that you are the dog that caught the car.
23:18And your dream life is actually my golden prism.
23:40Maybe it's time to burn it all down.
23:44You're fucking psychotic.
23:48Yeah, burn it. Go ahead.
23:51Yeah, God, burn it. Burn it. Burn the whole fucking thing down.
23:53Burn the whole fucking house down.
23:56I might do just that.
24:01Once I learned that beauty is the answer to nothing,
24:05I became the happiest I've ever been.
24:33I was like, I was like, I don't know.
24:37I was like, I'm going to have a good idea of helping with all the people.
25:06Oh, oh, oh.
25:19Do your fucking job.
25:20I don't want to have to tell you again.
25:24Wait, you can't open the fucking door for me?
25:26Get my fucking bags.
25:54Keep it warm, Josiah.
26:02Huh, huh, huh.
26:11I don't want to go.
26:20I don't want to go.
26:26I don't want to go.
26:30I don't want to go.
27:07I don't want to go.
27:08Be careful.
27:09You know, everybody in this place is still waiting for you to kick it.
27:12There's still time for me to kill you vultures first.
27:15I guess after tomorrow we're going to have to find a new carcass to circle.
27:19Yeah, I'll have new problems.
27:21Like what?
27:21Look at me.
27:23Look at me.
27:23If this shit works half as good as they say, how the hell are we supposed to explain how different
27:28we suddenly look?
27:29Since when do you explain anything to anyone?
27:31What if this was different?
27:32I've got shareholders.
27:33The board.
27:34Well, fuck all that.
28:01Fuck all that.
28:03So what's your big plan?
28:04Me?
28:09Come, come join us.
28:14Please, make yourselves comfortable.
28:22Oh, thank you.
28:41Now, bear witness.
28:43Four million years ago, a landmark moment in human evolution occurred.
28:48We developed bipedalism, the ability to walk on two legs.
28:51From there, our brains enlarged.
28:54Cognitive abilities expanded.
28:56We could use tools and started agricultural and industrial revolutions.
29:02Over the last century and a half, we advanced technology and medicine far enough that life expectancy has improved by
29:09nearly 50 years.
29:10Some of you in this room have already beaten the average, but age has taken its toll.
29:17Time, as they say, is undefeated.
29:20The last great stumbling block of mankind.
29:25In response, you tasked me with a mission.
29:28The Manhattan Project of Longevity and Aesthetics.
29:34Ladies and gentlemen, say goodbye to your old, broken-down bodies I introduce to you, the beauty.
29:45Just before winning my second Nobel Prize, I discovered the power of highly specialized gene therapies.
29:51But I couldn't help but wonder, what if we created a broad-spectrum group of specialized reprogrammable proteins and RNA?
30:00Exciting, sure.
30:01But the real breakthrough, the one that will get me Nobel number three,
30:06was packaging those powerful proteins with the most ruthlessly efficient viral gain of functionality ever designed.
30:12This will allow us to completely rebuild your DNA from scratch, cell by cell.
30:18A lot of blah-blah here.
30:20Yeah, sounds like you're trying to sell me drain cleaner.
30:23Let's just skip to the brass tacks.
30:25A rebuild of that scale unleashes the most perfect version of your physical self.
30:33Take a look.
30:3471-year-old male, stage 4 prostate cancer, heart trouble, declining brain activity, obese.
30:42You get the picture.
30:44Once the beauty has gone to work.
30:48Ooh.
30:49Uh-huh.
30:50I like him.
30:52His cancer is vaporized, never to return.
30:55Increased cardiac capacity, lean muscle with 6% body fat, bone density increased.
31:02Faster brain synapses.
31:03Maybe your dad chain smoked during family road trips.
31:06Who cares?
31:06Mom chased pills and vodka while pregnant with you?
31:09Irrelevant.
31:10Serious question.
31:11Am I going to have, like, a huge cock?
31:14Not that I need it.
31:17Aesthetically perfect in every way.
31:19Took four operations and a few gallons of saline,
31:23but I already have the tits of a 25-year-old.
31:26What happens to them?
31:27Any non-biological items will dissolve during the rebuilds.
31:30If you think they are great now,
31:33just wait until tomorrow.
31:36And there's not a stitch or a scar involved in all this?
31:50One intravenous injection.
31:51Oh, come on!
31:53No, no, no, no.
31:54I don't like it.
31:54It's just bullshit.
31:57This is way fucking nuttier than I realized.
32:00Talk side effects.
32:02Are we the guinea pigs?
32:05Some acute initial discomfort, sure.
32:08But that will subside as your body adjusts.
32:16All of our work is available for your perusal.
32:19However, I wouldn't recommend running to the FDA with this.
32:22Well, that's reassuring.
32:24Well, if it works, who gives a shit?
32:27How many people know about this?
32:29No one outside of this room.
32:31All the data and the final formulation resides here and only here.
32:37Lab techs are compartmentalized.
32:39They don't know what the main objective is.
32:41Like a fine watchmaker, I task them with building parts.
32:44Then I construct the final product.
32:46So what you're suggesting is that immortality is possible
32:52if we just take this special miracle juice.
32:57Those concepts are for storybooks and movies.
33:00Our science is an antidote.
33:03To what?
33:05To the limitations of being human.
33:16Great one.
33:18Let's get poked!
33:20Let's get poked!
33:44This?
33:56What?
33:57What in the fuck are you wearing?
34:01It's my Burning Man outfit.
34:03I'm a burner.
34:05I mean, it's cool, right?
34:07Okay.
34:12Welcome.
34:14To the first day.
34:17The best day of the rest of your lives.
34:21You'll notice, uh, you've got care packages
34:24that will help you through this process.
34:27I'd save that for post-injection.
34:30There are gallons of spring water here.
34:33And if you need more, just ask.
34:36Why would we need to drink more than a gallon of water each?
34:41Privacy, Mr. Forrest.
34:43Remember, what we are doing here is built on deep trust.
34:46Yeah, I just had some unfinished business.
34:52That stays here.
34:53It's personal stuff.
35:02Take your cleansing wipes.
35:04Take your cleansing wipes.
35:04They're found in the white containers to your left.
35:06Pick an arm.
35:07Any arm.
35:08And swab the injection site.
35:13And swab the injection site.
35:15Give it to your next one.
35:16Now, your dose.
35:30Okay. Nice. Thank you.
35:44Hello.
35:46What the fuck?
35:52My last Botox stung more than that.
35:57I don't feel shit.
36:41I don't feel shit.
36:50No!
36:52No!
36:53No!
36:54No!

42:33Yes, dumbass.
42:35I told you it'd be a shocking transformation.
42:38Is everything packed and ready?
42:40Yes, sir.
42:41Good.
42:49Oh, I'm sorry, fellas.
42:52It's just trust issues.
42:54I'm a bitch.
43:01Okay, let's go.
43:18Okay, let's go.
43:47Okay, let's go.
44:17Okay, let's go.
