00:00:00You
00:00:14Hey, miss
00:00:19Help me
00:00:21You've got the wrong
00:00:37Not
00:00:54Gemma
00:00:56Boss, the system is under attack
00:00:58I'm on my way.
00:01:10When I'm back, I'll marry you.
00:01:42I...
00:01:45Thank you for saving me last night.
00:01:49It's nothing.
00:02:03Find the woman from last night.
00:02:05Yes, sir.
00:02:22Madam President, the last bug in the Echelan system is fixed.
00:02:26Now we only need three seconds to trace any camera hack in state.
00:02:31Amazing. Miss Lane, you've just made the country a lot safer.
00:02:38Name your reward. Anything, it's yours.
00:02:40I want out today and get engaged with my boyfriend.
00:02:44Quinn, they're saying I'm a fraud.
00:02:47My startup's at a critical stage. I can't go to jail.
00:02:54Jason, I'll take the fall for you.
00:02:57Really?
00:02:58Of course.
00:03:01Two months ago, you saved me, yet barely knew me.
00:03:04Even left me your family ring.
00:03:06You're too kind to be a fraud.
00:03:08Baby, I promise.
00:03:11Five years from now, I'm putting that ring on your finger.
00:03:13Mommy!
00:03:15Mommy!
00:03:19Madam President, please approve my request.
00:03:23With all you've done, your time should have been up long ago.
00:03:26No need for parole.
00:03:27I did it all for the country.
00:03:30To thank you for letting me have Nora in prison.
00:03:34I'm not for a reduced sentence.
00:03:36As you wish.
00:03:38Miss Lane, if you need anything, call me directly.
00:03:41I'll do everything I can to make it happen.
00:03:42I'm not for the driver.
00:03:44I'm not for the driver.
00:03:54Let's go.
00:03:57Boss, over the past few years, your fiance's company, Aurora chips, has become a market leader.
00:04:02Also that Chips 2.0 you made as Q
00:04:05Every company wants a piece
00:04:06They all want to use it to rule the industry
00:04:07This is my engagement gift for Jason
00:04:10Not for sale to anyone else
00:04:12Are we dropping this news today?
00:04:14Yes?
00:04:15After the announcement
00:04:16Bring Chips 2.0 to the engagement party
00:04:18I'll give it to Jason myself
00:04:22Mommy
00:04:24Does Daddy not like me?
00:04:27He's never come to see me
00:04:29He does sweetheart, of course he does
00:04:33This ring
00:04:34Your dad left it for you
00:04:36He loves you very much
00:04:41L-H
00:04:44Lucas Hayes?
00:04:46You'd rather lie than marry me?
00:04:49I'm serious
00:04:51Five years ago I fell for a woman at the Crown Hotel
00:04:53I even gave her my family ring
00:04:55No way!
00:04:56You've never had a woman by your side all these years
00:05:00What you're saying?
00:05:01Daddy!
00:05:03Daddy?
00:05:05Daddy, I find you
00:05:08Little one?
00:05:10You're looking for your dad?
00:05:12I found him
00:05:13It's you
00:05:14Why do I feel connected to this kid I've never met?
00:05:18Nora!
00:05:20Nora!
00:05:21You scared me half to death!
00:05:22Mommy!
00:05:28Sir?
00:05:29Mommy!
00:05:30I found Daddy!
00:05:32Nora!
00:05:33He's not your daddy
00:05:34You can't just run off
00:05:36But
00:05:37You clearly weren't watching her
00:05:38And now you're scolding her?
00:05:42I was just so happy to see Daddy
00:05:45It's not Mommy's fault
00:05:51Baby
00:05:53Don't blame yourself
00:05:54For a careless mom
00:05:56Sir, thanks for helping
00:05:57But who are you to judge me?
00:05:59God?
00:06:00The law?
00:06:00We don't even know each other!
00:06:02At least I know what a parent should be
00:06:06Miss
00:06:08I know what you're trying
00:06:09Using the kid to trap Hayes
00:06:11But let me tell you
00:06:12It's not gonna happen
00:06:17Boss!
00:06:18Order data's leaking
00:06:18Production line's control system crashed
00:06:20And the auto repair keeps failing
00:06:23Let's go, baby
00:06:23Looks like they're in crisis mode
00:06:26Restart the sandbox
00:06:27Roll back to last night's snapshot
00:06:30Tried it
00:06:31Rollback points corrupted too
00:06:34Mommy
00:06:34Help daddy
00:06:35Okay?
00:06:38Fine
00:06:39For helping me find you
00:06:40I'll help him once
00:06:46Your system's been bypassed
00:06:47Auto defense is DDO-ing itself
00:06:49Change the firewall rules
00:06:50From port level
00:06:51To session level
00:06:51Watch this
00:06:53The attack traffic's been locked down
00:06:55From the source
00:06:57Your logs are a mess
00:06:58I'll patch a trace
00:06:59From now on
00:07:01Every anomalous call
00:07:02Leaves a fingerprint
00:07:02Follow it
00:07:03You'll catch your mole
00:07:07Who are you?
00:07:11Just a newly out of jail
00:07:13Single mom with a kid
00:07:14Who happens to know
00:07:15A bit about computers
00:07:16See?
00:07:17My mom's amazing
00:07:17Daddy, you should totally
00:07:19Go after her
00:07:19Nora
00:07:22Whoever you are
00:07:23You just saved
00:07:24A billion dollar project
00:07:25Come join Hayes Dynamics
00:07:26As our tech director
00:07:27Just name your price
00:07:29Aurora Chips
00:07:30Aurora Chips
00:07:31It's my fiance's company
00:07:32That's where I'll work
00:07:34Give the Orion project
00:07:35Straight to Aurora Chips
00:07:37But boss
00:07:38Their company's too small
00:07:39They can't even handle
00:07:40The basic
00:07:40With her on that team
00:07:42That project's return
00:07:43Easily doubles
00:07:44Thanks
00:07:47Engagement party today
00:07:49If you're free
00:07:49Come celebrate
00:07:51Daddy
00:07:52I'll wait for you
00:07:55Count on it
00:07:56I'll be there
00:08:01Boss
00:08:02I thought you'd never
00:08:03Go to private parties
00:08:04Maybe it's time
00:08:05To make an exception
00:08:06Got it
00:08:07I'll let Jason Cole
00:08:07Know you'll be partnering
00:08:08With him
00:08:08And email the intel team
00:08:10Full effort to find Q
00:08:11Chips 2.0
00:08:12I'm personally negotiating
00:08:15She's the only one
00:08:15Who can save our system
00:08:23Mommy
00:08:24It's so loud in here
00:08:25I don't like it
00:08:28Just a little longer
00:08:29We'll see your daddy soon
00:08:33Okay
00:08:39Ladies and gentlemen
00:08:40Great news
00:08:42Aurora Chips
00:08:44Has just secured
00:08:45The Orion project
00:08:46From Hayes Dynamics
00:08:47And later tonight
00:08:48Mr. Hayes himself
00:08:49Will be here
00:08:50To celebrate my engagement
00:08:52Hayes in person?
00:08:53Aurora's about to skyrocket
00:08:54I heard Hayes only gave
00:08:55The project
00:08:56Because of Jason's financing
00:08:58Nora
00:09:00That's your daddy
00:09:02I don't like this daddy
00:09:05Nora
00:09:05Don't say that
00:09:07You'd hurt his feelings
00:09:07Okay
00:09:08I didn't get here
00:09:10From nothing
00:09:10Just by luck or talent
00:09:11For five years
00:09:12There's been a woman
00:09:13By my side
00:09:14Supporting me
00:09:14Helping me in my company
00:09:16When I was at my lowest
00:09:17Is he talking about you mommy?
00:09:19Yes he is
00:09:21At this special moment
00:09:22I want her to come up here
00:09:25Stand beside me
00:09:26And share this blessing with me
00:09:28Please welcome
00:09:29My lucky goddess
00:09:38Everyone
00:09:39It's a pleasure
00:09:40To meet you all today
00:09:41That's Jason's fiance
00:09:42She's Jason's fiance
00:09:43Man's living the dream
00:09:44Mommy
00:09:45Who's that lady?
00:09:47Um
00:09:47Maybe
00:09:48Just one of your daddy's
00:09:49Business partners
00:09:50Madison
00:09:50Thank you
00:09:51For always supporting me
00:09:52Everyone
00:09:53Allow me to introduce
00:09:54Madison
00:09:55The woman I love
00:09:56And the fiance of Jason Cole
00:09:59Wait
00:10:05Is she Jason's secret mistress?
00:10:11If she's your fiance
00:10:13Then who am I?
00:10:15Quinn?
00:10:19Quinn
00:10:21Prison doors open
00:10:23That easy now?
00:10:25She
00:10:26Did time?
00:10:27Looks like it
00:10:28That thing's still on her ankle
00:10:33Five years ago
00:10:35You told me today
00:10:36Would be our engagement day
00:10:40You've been inside too long
00:10:42I'm Aurora's CEO now
00:10:43Silicon Valley's golden boy
00:10:45You an ex-con?
00:10:47Worth me?
00:10:48Mommy
00:10:49What's he saying?
00:10:51Don't forget
00:10:53I did my time
00:10:54For you
00:10:56Who held a gun to your head?
00:10:57You said you'd go
00:10:58I never asked you to
00:10:59Either way
00:11:03Thanks for your sacrifice
00:11:04But as for being my fiance
00:11:09Forget it
00:11:10Miss Lane
00:11:12Someone like you
00:11:13Could never be Mrs. Cole
00:11:15You're just a stain on his past
00:11:18Know your place
00:11:21But Jason
00:11:23After the crown hotel night
00:11:26We had a daughter
00:11:27Nora
00:11:29Can you really just deny her?
00:11:31She's got a kid
00:11:33The guy who saved you
00:11:36Wasn't me
00:11:37What do you mean?
00:11:39That day
00:11:41Saw your door open
00:11:42Thought I'd grab something valuable
00:11:43You woke up
00:11:44I panicked
00:11:45Pretended we had a thing
00:11:46Then two months
00:11:47Of that disgusting romance
00:11:51That time
00:11:51The cops were on my ass
00:11:53To fall
00:11:54So I let you take the fall
00:11:56You do five years
00:11:58And I get everything
00:11:59So really thank you
00:12:00For being stupid
00:12:05If I'd gone back that night
00:12:07Would we have a kid this cute too?
00:12:09Boss
00:12:10We found her
00:12:10The woman from the crown hotel
00:12:12Five years ago
00:12:12And you have a daughter
00:12:19What about this ring?
00:12:21You said it's your family ring
00:12:22Gave it to me
00:12:23Promised to marry me
00:12:26I went in that night
00:12:27To steal this ring
00:12:29Didn't get it before you caught me
00:12:30Turns out
00:12:31It wasn't even yours
00:12:33So
00:12:34From the start
00:12:35You were just using me?
00:12:36Don't make it sound so ugly
00:12:38At least I'm better than that other guy
00:12:39Who slept with you once
00:12:41And tossed you aside
00:12:44Better?
00:12:45What's there to compare?
00:12:47You and him are both garbage
00:12:50Shit
00:12:52No wonder that guy ran
00:12:53You
00:12:54You bitch
00:12:55No one's ever gonna want you
00:12:57Daddy wouldn't do that
00:12:58Give me back daddy's ring
00:13:02This cheapo
00:13:05Only trash like you would treasure it
00:13:08Give it back to me
00:13:09Want it little devil?
00:13:10I just won't give it to you
00:13:11No
00:13:14Nora
00:13:22Nora
00:13:27Sweetie
00:13:28You okay?
00:13:31How dare you ruin my engagement party?
00:13:35Security
00:13:39What do you want?
00:13:41Hit them hard!
00:13:45Mommy?
00:13:47It's okay mommy's here
00:13:50What are you going to do?
00:13:52Move!
00:13:53Those two bitches need to learn a lesson
00:13:56I suggest you don't touch me
00:13:58Or you'll pay dearly
00:14:02Oh really?
00:14:05You, an ex-con, dare threaten me?
00:14:10One snap
00:14:12And you're finished
00:14:14Move!
00:14:14Get this bitch out before Mr. Hayes sees her
00:14:19Baby, don't get mad over a bitch like her
00:14:21When Mr. Hayes arrives, put in a good word for me
00:14:25Whether the company rises or falls
00:14:28Depends on this deal
00:14:31Boss, the woman into your room five years ago is Quinn Lane
00:14:33She took the fall for her boyfriend the next day
00:14:35And had a daughter there, Nora Lane
00:14:39It's her
00:14:40Boss, Miss Lane's engagement party has started
00:14:43Go, now
00:14:44My wife is not marrying another man
00:14:50Do you really think Mr. Hayes is working with you because of Madison?
00:14:57Hayes' assistant said it himself
00:14:58The Orion deal was all thanks to my fiancé
00:15:04Yeah, but the fiancé he's talking about was me
00:15:09Wait, what?
00:15:11Hayes is cooperating with you
00:15:13For my sake
00:15:19Seriously?
00:15:20Who the hell you think you are?
00:15:22You know Hayes?
00:15:23Funny
00:15:25A criminal dragging Hayes into your lies?
00:15:29No shame at all
00:15:31At Cafe today, his production line crashed
00:15:33I fixed it
00:15:34Orion?
00:15:34He did it to pay me back
00:15:36Just ask him later, you will know I am telling the truth
00:15:38You think you can ruin this deal?
00:15:40Dream on!
00:15:41Teach them a lesson!
00:15:42Now!
00:15:45Mommy!
00:15:47Nora
00:15:48Nora, close your eyes
00:15:51Don't look
00:15:52Mommy, mommy
00:15:53You can't, baby
00:15:55Nora, Nora, Nora
00:16:01Her meds, where are they?
00:16:03Hold her down
00:16:08Let me go
00:16:09Nora's having an asthma attack
00:16:11Without her meds she could die
00:16:17Cut the axe, Brat
00:16:19Cut the axe, Brat
00:16:20Don't touch her
00:16:20If anything happens to her
00:16:22You're dead
00:16:23Oh really?
00:16:24Let's see
00:16:25Who dies?
00:16:26You or me?
00:16:29Mommy!
00:16:30Ah!
00:16:31No!
00:16:32Let her go!
00:16:35Ah!
00:16:36Take it out on me!
00:16:40Begging now?
00:16:46Let my daughter go
00:16:48I'll do anything
00:16:59Then ruin that pretty face of yours
00:17:01Do it and I'll let your kid live
00:17:05That face is nothing but trouble anyway
00:17:08Mommy
00:17:11Okay
00:17:15No!
00:17:19If I cut my face
00:17:21You'll let my daughter go
00:17:23Do it now
00:17:24Or the deal's off
00:17:30Mommy!
00:17:32Now let her go
00:17:34That's it?
00:17:35One tiny scratch?
00:17:37You think that counts?
00:17:39You lied!
00:17:42If you don't have the guts
00:17:45I can do it for you
00:17:46Jason
00:17:48I built your core system
00:17:50If anything happens to me
00:17:52Or Nora
00:17:52I swear I'll crash the whole damn thing
00:17:57What the hell are you talking about?
00:17:59Aurora is my system
00:18:01I built it from scratch
00:18:04You've got nothing to do with it
00:18:06Wow
00:18:06Now you're just making stuff up
00:18:10Aurora's chip system is known as the most perfect system
00:18:13There's no way it could crash
00:18:15Seems you haven't learned your lesson yet
00:18:19The production control chip you're using is not fully developed
00:18:23It's got a five-year lifespan
00:18:25Don't believe me?
00:18:27Go check the backguard
00:18:29Madison, wait
00:18:37Sorry
00:18:37My system's running perfect
00:18:40Called it
00:18:41She's just buying time
00:18:43Five years is up at eight o'clock today
00:18:47One minute left
00:18:48She actually sounds convincing
00:18:5030 seconds
00:18:56I'm done listening to this crap
00:18:58Time to die
00:19:04Warning
00:19:05Warning
00:19:05System crash
00:19:12How is that possible?
00:19:13Oh my god
00:19:14Aurora's system crashed?
00:19:16No
00:19:17That's impossible
00:19:19This is supposed to be the most perfect system
00:19:22How the hell could it crash?
00:19:26Time is up
00:19:30What the hell did you do to my system?
00:19:33Talk
00:19:33Was this your doing?
00:19:35I told you already
00:19:37Those chips only last five years
00:19:40Their time's up
00:19:44Shit
00:19:46I can fix it
00:19:47But you let me and my daughter walk out of here safely
00:19:52Making demands now?
00:19:53Please
00:19:54I can fix it in my sleep
00:19:59Permission concepts, data verification failed
00:20:01Uh, why are there even more alarms?
00:20:04Do you even know what you're doing?
00:20:06Shut up
00:20:09Let her go
00:20:11You fix it
00:20:12And if you can't
00:20:13I'll snap her neck
00:20:15Right here
00:20:16Fine
00:20:17I'll fix it
00:20:18But loosen your grip
00:20:20She needs to breathe
00:20:30Core circuits restored
00:20:32Production lines restarting
00:20:34System restored
00:20:35The system's fixed
00:20:36Now
00:20:37Let my daughter go
00:20:38Wait
00:20:40Did Hayes partner with me?
00:20:42Because of her?
00:20:46So
00:20:47Can we go now?
00:20:49Leaving?
00:20:51You ruin my party
00:20:53And walk away?
00:20:55For all we know
00:20:56That crash could be your fucking setup
00:20:59You're really stupid
00:21:01And evil
00:21:02A jailbird talking trash to me?
00:21:07Are you not done yet?
00:21:09Talking to me like that?
00:21:10You must be crazy
00:21:12You think you're so tough?
00:21:16Today
00:21:17I'm wrecking your hands
00:21:18Let's see you run that mouth after that
00:21:24Don't hurt my mom
00:21:34Boss
00:21:34Aurora went down five minutes ago
00:21:36Now it's back online
00:21:38A full rebuild in three minutes
00:21:41That's her style
00:21:42Jason really lucked out having Quinn
00:21:45He doesn't deserve her
00:21:47Wait
00:21:51That's
00:21:52An SOS?
00:21:54Step on it
00:21:55Quinn and Nora are in danger
00:21:56Yes sir
00:22:01Jason
00:22:02Just let Nora and me go
00:22:04I'll give you Chips 2.0
00:22:05Chips
00:22:062.0
00:22:07This is the perfect patch for every system bug
00:22:09With it
00:22:10Your system will never crash again
00:22:11And your company will rule the industry
00:22:13If what she's saying is true
00:22:15Jason are you insane?
00:22:17That convict's a liar
00:22:18Who knows what cheap trick she pulled to fix the system
00:22:20You really gonna risk Hayes' deal over her word?
00:22:26Quinn, cut it out
00:22:27Don't try to pit me against Madison
00:22:28Chips 2.0
00:22:30It's exclusive
00:22:31And every company's dying to
00:22:35Mommy
00:22:36You're still stalling for Hayes to arrive?
00:22:38You think you can talk trash in front of him
00:22:40And ruin the deal?
00:22:42Hold her hands down!
00:22:44Nora!
00:22:52Today
00:22:53You're going to learn your lesson
00:22:59Go to hell
00:23:01You asked for it
00:23:04Mommy!
00:23:11Stop
00:23:13Mr. Hayes!
00:23:16Stay away
00:23:17From her
00:23:21Mr. Hayes
00:23:22This woman
00:23:23She caused a scene at the party
00:23:24We were just trying to handle her
00:23:27Yeah
00:23:27She's been trouble since prison
00:23:28Dragging that kid with her
00:23:29Can't stop her
00:23:29Are you okay?
00:23:31I'm fine
00:23:34Easy now
00:23:35Breathe slow
00:23:38Daddy
00:23:47Now
00:23:47Hayes Dynamics
00:23:48Cuts ties with Aurora
00:23:50What?
00:23:52Mr. Hayes
00:23:53Mr. Hayes
00:23:53There must be some misunderstanding
00:23:58I chose Aurora
00:23:59Because of Quinn Lane
00:24:00And because she said
00:24:03You're her fiancé
00:24:06Not my fiancé anymore
00:24:08As of now
00:24:09Really?
00:24:10She was telling the truth
00:24:11Aurora's done for
00:24:12He just pissed off Hayes
00:24:14I helped him
00:24:15Because I thought he was that guy
00:24:16For my one night stand
00:24:18Turns out they're the same
00:24:19Both trash
00:24:21That man
00:24:22Maybe back then
00:24:23Quinn stop lying
00:24:24In front of Mr. Hayes
00:24:25Mommy's not lying
00:24:27You're not a good man
00:24:29I want to pick my own daddy
00:24:31From now on
00:24:32You're my daddy
00:24:32Okay?
00:24:33Hey
00:24:34Nora
00:24:36Okay
00:24:37I'll protect you and your mom
00:24:42Mr. Hayes
00:24:42Please
00:24:43I know I was wrong
00:24:44I'll apologize to Quinn
00:24:45I swear
00:24:46Just give me one more chance
00:24:47Please don't cancel the deal
00:24:50Jason
00:24:51Look
00:24:58From Q Core Labs
00:25:01Q grants Aurora chips
00:25:04Exclusive global access
00:25:05To chips 2.0
00:25:07Chips 2
00:25:08The most powerful chip system ever
00:25:10Just lost Hayes' deal
00:25:11And now Q gifts it to Aurora
00:25:12Is this for real?
00:25:18Q is giving me
00:25:20The chip
00:25:24Boss, it's real
00:25:27Q's official release
00:25:28Digital signature checks out
00:25:30Why would Q give chips 2.0 to that bastard?
00:25:32We should double check with Irene Chow
00:25:34Don't bother
00:25:36Chow will be there to give me the chip
00:25:39Even Q backs me
00:25:41Aurora's far from over
00:25:44I can't believe I forgot this
00:25:46Jason
00:25:48With chips 2
00:25:49We rule the industry now
00:25:51That's right
00:25:52With Q's chips 2
00:25:54I'm Tech's new godfather
00:25:55Even Lucas Hayes begging to work with me
00:25:57I wouldn't glance at it
00:25:58Congrats
00:25:59I hope you actually get your hands on chips 2
00:26:01Come on
00:26:03I'll take you both to the hospital
00:26:04Wait, wait
00:26:05Hold it
00:26:08Hold it
00:26:14You think you can just walk off
00:26:17After humiliating me?
00:26:19And what exactly do you want?
00:26:21Kneel and apologize
00:26:22I might let you slide
00:26:23Otherwise
00:26:24Once I get chips 2
00:26:26First thing I'm doing
00:26:28Taking down Hayes Dynamuses
00:26:32You!
00:26:33He just threatened Hayes
00:26:35No wonder
00:26:36With chips 2
00:26:37You own everything
00:26:37Even Hayes has to bow
00:26:42You really think you're king
00:26:43Just because of one email?
00:26:46Do you honestly think
00:26:47Chips 2 belongs to you?
00:26:48Of course
00:26:50It's an official announcement
00:26:51From Irene Chow
00:26:52Q's only spokesperson
00:26:54Nobody can stop it!
00:26:58I promise
00:26:59Once Q sees the real you
00:27:01She'll never hand chips 2.0 over
00:27:04Stop
00:27:06Dreaming
00:27:12You really think you can meddle
00:27:13In decisions of the big shots?
00:27:15Who
00:27:15Who do you think you are?
00:27:17One snap from Q
00:27:18You'd vanish from this world
00:27:20No way!
00:27:21Mom's top of the top!
00:27:22You little brat!
00:27:23What do you know?
00:27:25Get lost!
00:27:27Whether Quinn's right or wrong
00:27:28Doesn't matter
00:27:30As long as I'm here
00:27:33You won't touch a single hair
00:27:34On them
00:27:41Mr. Hayes
00:27:42I won't let anything happen
00:27:43To your company
00:27:45You're impressive
00:27:45But Q's the top
00:27:46No one's gonna match her
00:27:48For a hundred years
00:27:49If she wanted to help
00:27:49Jason's company
00:27:50No one could stop her
00:27:52Hear that?
00:27:53Even Hayes knows it
00:27:54Real power's on my side
00:27:56And you?
00:27:57Just a convict
00:27:58Leaning on him
00:27:59Once I get chips 2.0
00:28:01I'll kill you out
00:28:01Like you're nothing
00:28:02Better kneel and beg
00:28:04Maybe we'll spare you
00:28:05Otherwise
00:28:06Once we get chips 2.0
00:28:07You're done
00:28:08Same goes for you
00:28:09Kneel and beg
00:28:10Maybe I'll spare you
00:28:12No more backup
00:28:13And you're still this arrogant?
00:28:16I don't need backup
00:28:18That Q you all worship?
00:28:20Just a name I made up
00:28:22On a win
00:28:25Wait
00:28:26What are you saying?
00:28:27You're Q?
00:28:32You?
00:28:33Q?
00:28:34Are you out of your mind?
00:28:36A damn ex-con
00:28:37Pretending to be
00:28:38The most mysterious person
00:28:39In the world?
00:28:40You trying to land yourself
00:28:41Back in prison?
00:28:42And what if
00:28:43I'm telling the truth?
00:28:57Your logs are a mess
00:28:59I'll patch a trace
00:29:02That's true?
00:29:03This isn't exactly
00:29:04The moment I joke around
00:29:07You're
00:29:08Nothing like I expected
00:29:11Thanks
00:29:13Stop, liar
00:29:14Stop
00:29:17Oh, bitch
00:29:18Cut the act
00:29:20You're nothing
00:29:21But a damn liar
00:29:24Someone grab her!
00:29:28And what makes you so sure
00:29:29She's lying?
00:29:30You all saw what she did
00:29:31To Aurora's chip system
00:29:31Who besides Q
00:29:32Could pull that off?
00:29:33Because I just called
00:29:34Q-Core's front desk
00:29:35Irene Chow
00:29:36The only one who actually
00:29:37Knows what Q looks like
00:29:37Went to pick her up
00:29:38This morning
00:29:39Apparently Q just flew back
00:29:41From overseas
00:29:41So there's no way
00:29:43She's some ex-con
00:29:44Fresh out of prison today
00:29:45Then she's gotta be lying
00:29:48Pretending to be Q?
00:29:49Big mistake
00:29:50You and Hayes
00:29:52Are done in this industry
00:30:10You all heard her
00:30:11She's pretending to be Q
00:30:12And Hayes here
00:30:13Is helping her
00:30:15When Q finds out
00:30:17About this
00:30:17None of us
00:30:18Are getting away clean
00:30:19If Q blacklists us
00:30:21Our stock's gonna crash tomorrow
00:30:22Quick, tweet it
00:30:23Make it clear
00:30:24Hayes planned all this
00:30:26Iron Chow's on her way
00:30:28Tie her up
00:30:29And hand her over
00:30:29Then we're off the hook
00:30:31Grab her
00:30:34Mommy
00:30:36Grab them
00:30:37Teach them a lesson
00:30:43You go ahead
00:30:46I'm not leaving you
00:30:51You are a liar
00:30:54We'll teach you a lesson
00:30:58Let her go
00:31:03One more step
00:31:05And I start shooting
00:31:08Lucas, you really think
00:31:09This is your turf?
00:31:10I was just gonna hand you over
00:31:11To Q
00:31:11But now
00:31:12Are you trying to get yourself killed?
00:31:22Iron Chow
00:31:23Is Q here too?
00:31:25Where is she?
00:31:26What the hell is going on here?
00:31:28Miss Chow
00:31:29Perfect timing
00:31:30That low-lug criminal
00:31:32Has been pretending to be Q
00:31:33And scamming everyone here
00:31:34Don't worry
00:31:35I'll handle it
00:31:36Miss Chow
00:31:36That's Chips 2.0, right?
00:31:38Go ahead
00:31:39And give it to me
00:31:44I hereby announce
00:31:45That QCore Labs
00:31:46Is retracting the decision
00:31:47To gift Jason Cole
00:31:49The QChips 2.0
00:31:50We will select
00:31:51A new partner
00:31:54What's going on?
00:31:55Jason's got nothing left?
00:31:56Does that mean
00:31:57We have a chance now?
00:31:59Miss Chow
00:31:59There's gotta be some mistake, right?
00:32:01Why pull back the gift
00:32:02All of a sudden?
00:32:04Is it because of this
00:32:05Bitch pretending to be Q?
00:32:07Don't worry
00:32:07We'll make her regret it
00:32:12Let me make this perfectly clear
00:32:16Quinn Lane
00:32:17Is the founder of QCore Labs
00:32:19She is Q
00:32:20Anyone who disrespects Miss Lane
00:32:22Is declaring war on QCore Labs
00:32:24She's Q?
00:32:27No way
00:32:28How can a convict be Q?
00:32:31The announcement has been pushed live
00:32:33All Aurora licenses for Chips 1.0 and 2.0
00:32:36Terminated
00:32:39Boss
00:32:40Aurora's stock crashed at open
00:32:41Three major investment funds are pulling out
00:32:44Aurora?
00:32:45They're going bankrupt, aren't they?
00:32:46After today, who would dare invest them?
00:32:48No
00:32:49You can't do this to me!
00:32:52I warned you
00:32:53You touch me or my daughter
00:32:55You pay the price
00:32:57Also, the Shaw family is now permanently blacklisted
00:32:59No fund under their name will ever cooperate with QCore again
00:33:03Hayes Dynamics will enforce the same blacklist
00:33:05You can't!
00:33:06This is revenge under the guise of business!
00:33:08Relax
00:33:09You'll still have opportunities to invest, but
00:33:11Just not with me or Lucas
00:33:14Mess with Q and Hayes
00:33:16These two are done
00:33:17Let's get out of here
00:33:18Don't get dragged in
00:33:20Come on, Maddie
00:33:24Satisfied with how we handled this?
00:33:26Jason lost everything
00:33:27The Shaw family
00:33:28Two major revenue folks
00:33:30Gone
00:33:31Thank you
00:33:31Whatever makes you happy
00:33:37Hey
00:33:40You want to marry me?
00:33:41Wait
00:33:42What do you mean?
00:33:43Look
00:33:44My ex was trash
00:33:46Nora's dad ran out on us
00:33:47But you're a good guy
00:33:49And she likes you
00:33:50So
00:33:51If you're okay with it
00:33:52Maybe we could try this
00:33:53Together
00:33:55That guy back then
00:33:57Maybe
00:34:01Yeah
00:34:03I'd marry you in a heartbeat
00:34:04Yay!
00:34:05So you'll be my dad now, right?
00:34:07Yep
00:34:08Baby girl
00:34:18Quinn
00:34:21There's something I need to tell you
00:34:24Actually
00:34:25That night
00:34:26The man slept with you
00:34:30Actually
00:34:30That night
00:34:36Madam President
00:34:36Quinn
00:34:37The Echelon CENEL project
00:34:39Has been approved
00:34:40It'll open for global bidding
00:34:42As the creator of Echelon
00:34:44You deserve a bigger stage
00:34:45We want you to lead the project
00:34:47As its chief designer
00:34:48It's my honor
00:34:52Madam President
00:34:53I'd like to recommend a company
00:34:54To participate in the bid
00:34:55Any company you recommend
00:34:56Is welcome
00:34:57But Quinn
00:34:58Until the bidding conference
00:34:59Your real identity
00:35:00Must remain strictly confidential
00:35:01Understood
00:35:05Something wrong?
00:35:06My dad found out I'm married
00:35:08He wants us over for dinner
00:35:12That doesn't sound so bad
00:35:13My stepbrother Adam will be there
00:35:15He's bringing his fiancee
00:35:16Selena Grant
00:35:16My father
00:35:17Tends to favor them
00:35:19Dinner might get
00:35:19Uncomfortable
00:35:20Whatever
00:35:21Who he sides with
00:35:22Is his business
00:35:22I've got you
00:35:24Thanks ma'am
00:35:24I guess I should say that first
00:35:29Lucas
00:35:30You've learned to keep
00:35:31Such a big thing
00:35:33As marriage a secret
00:35:33From your family
00:35:34It happened quickly
00:35:36Someone who's done time
00:35:37Getting in our house
00:35:38That's your lucky break
00:35:43Miss Lane really is impressive
00:35:45Coming from
00:35:46That kind of place
00:35:48And still managing to marry into wealth
00:35:50I admire that
00:35:51My mom's awesome
00:35:55Your mom's impressive
00:35:56She knows how to play her cards
00:35:58Me?
00:35:59I just run a little business
00:36:01And dabble in tech
00:36:02Selena studied chip engineering
00:36:03Every project she's invested in
00:36:05Has made money
00:36:06If you don't understand something
00:36:07In the industry
00:36:08You should ask her
00:36:08Yeah
00:36:09You know chips, right?
00:36:11You stack the bandwidth frequencies
00:36:12Onto the chassis architecture
00:36:13Then wrap it with a bit of
00:36:15Blockchain magic
00:36:15And boom
00:36:16Top level security
00:36:19Bad weight isn't frequency
00:36:21And a casing isn't architecture
00:36:22Anyone who actually understands systems
00:36:24Wouldn't mix those terms
00:36:25It's just a different way
00:36:26Of explaining it
00:36:27Also, no security chip
00:36:29Is ever wrapped
00:36:29With a bit of blockchain
00:36:30If you said that at a conference
00:36:31Not a single tech team
00:36:32Would hand you a project
00:36:33I'm only speaking
00:36:34From a business angle
00:36:35Real investors understand
00:36:36The technology first
00:36:37Then they talk about trends
00:36:39Where did you work before?
00:36:41QCore Labs
00:36:42The research institute
00:36:43With the most chip titans
00:36:43In the industry
00:36:44I've heard QCore only hires
00:36:45The best in the field
00:36:46When did you join?
00:36:48Quinn founded QCore Labs
00:36:49You could say she's
00:36:50Its boss
00:36:54Your sister-in-law
00:36:56She really is something
00:36:59Hey
00:37:00You guys heard about
00:37:01This Sentinel project
00:37:02Everyone's buzzing about?
00:37:03Oh, you mean the one
00:37:04The president personally
00:37:05Signed off on?
00:37:05It's a national level program
00:37:06And it's being led by
00:37:08The genius behind the Echelon
00:37:09Only a handful of companies
00:37:10Even got an invitation
00:37:11The president personally approved it
00:37:13Led by the Echelon mastermind
00:37:14If we got in
00:37:15We'd basically be
00:37:17The top dogs in the world
00:37:18Yes, father
00:37:19The grants pulled some strings
00:37:20And we just made the list
00:37:21If we can bring some glory
00:37:23To Hayes Group
00:37:23It'll be my way of thanking you
00:37:25Good
00:37:26If you land the Sentinel project
00:37:27And push the company further
00:37:29I'll hand you the chairman spot
00:37:30At HQ
00:37:31Chairman?
00:37:32Doesn't matter to me
00:37:34But I won't let a company
00:37:34Built by my mother
00:37:36Fall into outsider hands
00:37:37So in your mind
00:37:38Hayes Group
00:37:38Is your mom's company?
00:37:40Since you don't care
00:37:40About the chairman's seat
00:37:41Don't steal Adam's credit
00:37:43Father, don't be mad
00:37:44Lucas just speaks his mind
00:37:46One more competitor
00:37:47On the Sentin project
00:37:48Won't hurt
00:37:48But
00:37:50No ticket
00:37:51No chance
00:37:52Exactly
00:37:53Invitations like this
00:37:54It's not just about tech
00:37:55Resources matter too
00:37:57Even QCOR Labs
00:37:58Wouldn't necessarily help
00:38:00Don't worry daddy
00:38:01Mommy's amazing
00:38:02Babe, I know
00:38:03But still
00:38:07Who'll actually get
00:38:08The Sentinel project
00:38:09Hard to say, right?
00:38:10You really think
00:38:11Lucas could actually
00:38:12Get into the Sentinel project?
00:38:20Not think
00:38:20The bid invitation
00:38:22Already went to Lucas
00:38:27And the Hayes HQ
00:38:28Chairman's seat
00:38:30Whatever Lucas wants
00:38:32I'll make sure he gets it
00:38:46Good to see you
00:38:47All these funds
00:38:49Dad pulled strings
00:38:50To get them here
00:38:50If they're backing
00:38:51The reviewers won't risk
00:38:52Picking Lucas
00:38:52Thanks, honey
00:38:54The Sentinel project
00:38:55Isn't just a firewall
00:38:56This system operates
00:38:58On both rules
00:38:59And ethics
00:38:59It rejects illegal calls
00:39:01Data segregation
00:39:02Permission slicing
00:39:03AI flags misuse
00:39:05System blocks it automatically
00:39:06Remember this
00:39:07We defend
00:39:08We don't spy
00:39:09Quinn Lane is
00:39:10Undeniably a tech genius
00:39:12But can a convicted felon
00:39:13Really handle a national level project?
00:39:15Hayes HQ owes the public
00:39:16I wanted to back Lucas' call
00:39:18But the public backlash
00:39:19Is already hitting
00:39:19The company's image
00:39:20And this
00:39:21Even if the company
00:39:22Doesn't care
00:39:23Think about the president
00:39:25Would she be cool
00:39:26With a convicted lead architect?
00:39:28So what's the play here?
00:39:30Lucas should step out
00:39:31Of the Sentinel bid
00:39:32Protect the company's reputation
00:39:33Doesn't matter how smart she is
00:39:34National systems aren't
00:39:35For someone like that
00:39:36Father
00:39:37I'll make sure we don't
00:39:38Lose this opportunity
00:39:42Here's your chance
00:39:44Cut her out of the core tech
00:39:45Lead the bid yourself
00:39:47Dad
00:39:48Without Quinn
00:39:49Lucas will get in
00:39:51Lost her
00:39:53I know your concerns
00:39:55So you
00:39:55We're moving forward
00:39:57Quinn Lane will be
00:39:58The lead architect
00:39:59Publicly accountable
00:40:03Are you out of your mind?
00:40:04This is suicidal
00:40:05For the company
00:40:06Brother
00:40:07You're throwing yourself
00:40:08And her onto the media pie
00:40:09You're gambling
00:40:10The whole company
00:40:16Lucas
00:40:17Once it's public
00:40:18I'll be the target
00:40:19Of every attack
00:40:20I know
00:40:21We'll win Sentinel
00:40:22Fair and square
00:40:23And shut everyone up
00:40:28Hey sis-in-law
00:40:29Got a minute?
00:40:30Talk
00:40:31What Lucas did in there
00:40:33Bold
00:40:33I'll give him that
00:40:34But putting you in the line of fire
00:40:35While he stays clean
00:40:37That doesn't bother you?
00:40:38All the heat's on you now
00:40:39And it might spill over to Nora
00:40:41When he married you
00:40:42I figured he'd finally gotten over her
00:40:44Guess not
00:40:46You mean
00:40:46The woman from five years ago?
00:40:48Wait
00:40:48You didn't know?
00:40:50Looks like he's using you
00:40:52To lock in Sentinel
00:40:53And letting you take the press hits
00:40:54Men don't just forget
00:40:55The one they've chased for years
00:40:59Lucas and I
00:40:59We're just using each other
00:41:03So whatever this is
00:41:04Never happened
00:41:09Adam
00:41:10Professor Liu
00:41:11One of the Sentinel Project judges
00:41:13Professor
00:41:13It's an honor to have you for dinner
00:41:15I just follow procedure
00:41:17A small token
00:41:18Please
00:41:20Off the record
00:41:22I saw something in your brother's code
00:41:23Something that shouldn't be there
00:41:25Like what?
00:41:26The core fragments
00:41:27Marked Eagle Eye Colonel
00:41:28That's core to the Exelon system
00:41:29Top level classifier
00:41:30You're saying they stole state tech?
00:41:32Call it what you want
00:41:33I don't see another explanation
00:41:34Bringing it up the bid
00:41:35They won't just lose
00:41:36They'll be disqualified on the spot
00:41:39Professor
00:41:40Thank you for sharing something this important
00:41:42You won't regret telling me this
00:41:46Our system can lock onto public sentiment
00:41:48Across the entire network in real time
00:41:50And quietly neutralize it
00:41:52Any underworded voices
00:41:53Are suppressed instantly
00:41:56Efficient
00:41:57Centralized control
00:41:58Impressive
00:42:00Now please welcome the joint team
00:42:02From Hayes Dynamics and QCOR
00:42:05Excuse me
00:42:06Before they start
00:42:07There's something everyone here needs to hear
00:42:12While reviewing their submitted code
00:42:14I came across something
00:42:16Unauthorized core level fragments
00:42:17From the Exelon
00:42:22That's...
00:42:23I've studied Exelon
00:42:24That's core level code
00:42:26No question
00:42:27I didn't want to believe my own brother would go this far
00:42:29But stealing state tech
00:42:30Entering a bid with it
00:42:31That's a crime
00:42:32I won't stand by and watch him destroy himself
00:42:34I move to disqualify their team
00:42:35And turn over all materials for investigation
00:42:36That code
00:42:44That code is confirmed as Exelon core
00:42:46Until this is resolved
00:42:47All of Lucas' team's demonstrations are suspended
00:42:50All materials are to be secured and sealed
00:42:54Hold on
00:42:58That code was written by me
00:42:59And yes
00:43:00It's identical to the Exelon system at the core
00:43:05So she's admitting it
00:43:06She's provoking us
00:43:09How did you even get the Exelon system code
00:43:11How else
00:43:12She just admitted to stealing state tech
00:43:14Someone like her isn't back in custody
00:43:16And you're still letting her bid here
00:43:18I'm requesting again
00:43:20Disqualify their team immediately
00:43:21And have her taken back for review
00:43:23Do you realize what you're saying
00:43:25Chief Judge
00:43:26Actually
00:43:26Miss Lane
00:43:28Don't tell me you're about to claim
00:43:30That you analyzed the Exelon system
00:43:32And then reproduce this code yourself
00:43:34Just a friendly one
00:43:36The Exelon system is top tier security engineering
00:43:39Without the full source code
00:43:41No one could reproduce at its core in a short time
00:43:43Don't even think about cheating your way through
00:43:45You're absolutely right
00:43:47No one could write code like that without the source
00:43:50Except the creator
00:43:52Then there's only one explanation
00:43:55Your team stole Exelon code
00:43:57And illegally used it in your proposal
00:44:00Actually
00:44:01There's another possibility
00:44:05The code used in this bid
00:44:07And the Exelon system itself
00:44:09Were both written by me
00:44:16Just to clear your name, huh?
00:44:17You'll really say anything
00:44:21The creator of Exelon system
00:44:23Is someone even the president
00:44:25Trezident with respect
00:44:26And she
00:44:27Deserves it?
00:44:31Detain her
00:44:32Hand her over to the military
00:44:33For investigation
00:44:36You're not touching her
00:44:42You think she really created Exelon?
00:44:44The president's coming
00:44:45You want to share a cell with her?
00:44:47I trust her
00:44:49Why don't we wait for the president to decide?
00:44:51Why waste the president's time?
00:44:53Caesar!
00:44:54Stop!
00:45:01Madam, president
00:45:09Everyone
00:45:10Put down whatever you're holding
00:45:13Ladies and gentlemen
00:45:14I'd like to introduce Quinn Lane to you
00:45:16She is the creator of the Exelon system
00:45:19And the lead architect of the Sentinel project
00:45:27This...
00:45:27That's impossible
00:45:28She was behind bars
00:45:30When she built the Exelon system for the nation
00:45:31And now you're accusing her
00:45:32Of stealing classified info?
00:45:34Mr. President
00:45:34Let me finish what I'm about to say
00:45:43Maybe Professor Liu
00:45:44Should explain something first
00:45:45How exactly did Adam
00:45:46Get his hands on our team's code?
00:45:50How would I know?
00:45:51No need to deny it, Professor Liu
00:45:53This is easy to verify
00:45:55Using my own code to pin theft on me?
00:45:58That's creative
00:45:59I was only following procedure
00:46:01From now on, Professor Liu is suspended
00:46:02From all judging duties
00:46:03And placed under investigation
00:46:05Adam Hayes
00:46:06Malicious defamation and obstruction
00:46:07Of a national security project
00:46:09Your team is disqualified
00:46:10From the bidding process
00:46:11All related parties will be investigated
00:46:16Adam!
00:46:17Why are you still helping Lucas?
00:46:19He's using you!
00:46:20He never forgot the woman
00:46:21From the Crown Hotel
00:46:22Five years ago!
00:46:25Five years ago?
00:46:27The Crown Hotel?
00:46:28The bastard who slept with me
00:46:30And disappeared
00:46:30That was you?
00:46:33I can explain
00:46:36When did you figure it out?
00:46:38The day of the engagement party
00:46:43So I've been the joke all along
00:46:46Quinn!
00:46:51I never want to see you again
00:47:00Quinn, at least let me finish
00:47:02You didn't say it five years ago
00:47:04Not at the engagement banquet
00:47:05Not before the wedding
00:47:06Then there's no need to say it now
00:47:10Quinn!
00:47:11Quinn!
00:47:12Quinn!
00:47:12Quinn!
00:47:14Quinn!
00:47:15Quinn!
00:47:16Quinn!
00:47:16Did Dad make you mad?
00:47:19Yeah
00:47:20But he'll always be your dad
00:47:23If you miss him
00:47:24I'll call him to come see you
00:47:39That way
00:47:40I'll know when Dad comes back.
00:47:45Mrs. Lane said, emails only, no in person.
00:47:50If it's work, submit a ticket.
00:47:53The president issued new technical requirements.
00:47:54You need to take a look.
00:47:56Send the files to my email.
00:47:59The Central Project Phase 1 verification is being moved up.
00:48:02You and Lucas are in charge.
00:48:03You cover the tech side.
00:48:04He manages the rollout.
00:48:06The frequency is going to be high, so you two better work together.
00:48:07Madam President, I didn't realize you also handled marriage counseling.
00:48:11Well, just give the guy a chance.
00:48:16You're finally willing to see me.
00:48:18Business is business.
00:48:25I knew I picked the right people.
00:48:28Phase 1 excited every expectation I had.
00:48:31Madam President, for the next stage, I think we can handle our parts separately.
00:48:34At this stage, you and Lucas working together is still the most efficient option.
00:48:38Quinn, I know the two of you have your issues.
00:48:40But for the sake of national security, could you at least finish this project together?
00:48:44Fine.
00:48:44Then we'll finish the project first.
00:48:46We'll take our leave now.
00:48:48Same as before.
00:48:49I handle core architecture.
00:48:51You manage production and government liations.
00:48:52Got it.
00:48:53Whatever you say.
00:48:53Daytime meetings are on you.
00:48:55Data's with me by end of day.
00:48:56Any media requests, all yours.
00:48:57I only show up for internal technical briefings.
00:48:59Works for me.
00:49:13Honestly, the boss and Q still look pretty good together.
00:49:16I heard they're basically separated now.
00:49:17Been going home to different places lately.
00:49:19Oh, I guess Hayes really messed up something unforgivable.
00:49:25Everyone, please write down your parents' phone numbers.
00:49:28I'll collect them in a minute.
00:49:43Nora doesn't have a dad?
00:49:45No wonder she's so weird.
00:49:48I do have a dad.
00:49:49Then why didn't you write it down?
00:49:51You're lying.
00:49:52You're a liar.
00:49:55We don't play with liars.
00:50:06All right, class.
00:50:08Let's get started.
00:50:11Ugh, it froze again.
00:50:14I can fix it.
00:50:17This isn't a toy, sweetheart.
00:50:19You really shouldn't...
00:50:26Done.
00:50:28It's done?
00:50:37Nora's so cool.
00:50:39Nora, you know how to fix computers?
00:50:42She's just a freak.
00:50:44She never plays with anyone.
00:50:48My mom said, her mom's been to jail.
00:50:50And her dad doesn't even want her.
00:50:53Really?
00:50:55Obviously.
00:50:56Why else would she only put her mom's number on the form?
00:51:05All right, that's enough.
00:51:07Let's start the lesson.
00:51:10What are you showing off for, weirdo?
00:51:13Your mom's been to jail.
00:51:15Your dad dumped you.
00:51:17And you're out here playing princess?
00:51:19I do have a dad.
00:51:20And I have a family.
00:51:23Liar!
00:51:24Nobody wants you!
00:51:26You broke my computer!
00:51:28So what if I did?
00:51:29You deserved it!
00:51:30You're a horrible person!
00:51:33I'm telling my parents they'll get you kicked out of the school!
00:51:46Your little bastard hit my son in front of the whole class.
00:51:50Is this how your school handles things?
00:51:53We've donated serious money to this school.
00:51:55You better sort this out, or there won't be a school left to run.
00:51:59Mr. Li, please calm down.
00:52:02They're just kids.
00:52:04Nora, you apologize to Chubby, and we'll let this go.
00:52:09He broke my computer first.
00:52:14That cheap little thing.
00:52:15Who cares?
00:52:16But you lay a hand on my son?
00:52:18Clearly your mom didn't raise you right.
00:52:20Her mom's been to jail!
00:52:22No wonder.
00:52:23How else could they've raised such a daughter?
00:52:27Nora, just apologize.
00:52:40Miss Lane, you're here.
00:52:42We were just working things out.
00:52:43Who said my daughter owes anyone an apology?
00:52:45So you're the one.
00:52:47Some single mom from God knows where.
00:52:49No wonder the kid turned out like this.
00:52:52I only care about the facts.
00:52:54Pull the security footage.
00:52:58Unfortunately, the system had a malfunction today.
00:53:00That part wasn't recorded.
00:53:02Have your daughter apologize.
00:53:04Throw in some emotional damages.
00:53:05Then maybe we can talk.
00:53:09Tell me something.
00:53:11Did this system break on its own?
00:53:13Or did someone help it along?
00:53:14It's just a coincidence.
00:53:22What are you doing?
00:53:25What a coincidence.
00:53:27Exactly ten minutes gone.
00:53:29And manually deleted.
00:53:31What nonsense are you talking?
00:53:33Hold on.
00:53:34Watch first.
00:53:35Talk after.
00:53:41How wasn't that video deleted?
00:53:45So now, who still thinks the one who should apologize is my daughter?
00:53:54Even if my son knocked her thing over first, she still had no right to hit him.
00:53:58Exactly.
00:53:58My son is worth ten of her.
00:54:02A slum kid like her dares to touch him?
00:54:05There are consequences.
00:54:07What if we give Nora a formal warning on her record, both sides apologize, and we just...
00:54:12No!
00:54:12I'm your biggest donor after the Hayes family, and you're expelling her today.
00:54:16That's right.
00:54:17Either she's out, or off funding us.
00:54:20The footage just proved your son started this.
00:54:22And you're still standing here trying to expel my daughter?
00:54:27The truth doesn't matter to me.
00:54:31I just want you out of this school.
00:54:36Principal.
00:54:37And this is the kind of environment you're comfortable running?
00:54:43Fine.
00:54:44If reason doesn't work, I can play it your way.
00:54:47You think you can threaten me?
00:54:49On my turf?
00:54:51Drop the act.
00:54:52If you actually had any pull, you wouldn't be standing here arguing.
00:54:56Apologize to my son.
00:54:58Now!
00:54:59Mom!
00:55:03Daddy, help!
00:55:05Please!
00:55:06If everything stays on track, within a month we can...
00:55:14Daddy!
00:55:16Help!
00:55:18Mr. Hayes?
00:55:19Meeting suspended.
00:55:20Locate Naya.
00:55:21Now.
00:55:21Yes, sir.
00:55:25Think carefully.
00:55:26If you lay a finger on me, I guarantee your entire family will disappear from this city.
00:55:30Who the hell do you think you are?
00:55:32Threatening me?
00:55:44Who the hell are you?
00:55:50Mr. Hayes?
00:55:51What brings you here in person?
00:55:52I'm in the middle of something.
00:55:57Would you like to look around first?
00:56:07No.
00:56:09Tell me what just happened first.
00:56:14Mr. Hayes!
00:56:15Perfect timing!
00:56:16This parent let her daughter beat my son.
00:56:19We're just...
00:56:20teaching them some manners.
00:56:22Exactly!
00:56:23Just a poorly raised, poor kid who dared to hit someone at our school.
00:56:27The security footage is right there.
00:56:29You really want to keep lying?
00:56:41It's just your lousy computer, so what if it broke?
00:56:43We'll pay for it.
00:56:44But your daughter laid a hand on my son?
00:56:46She's getting expelled.
00:56:48Damn right.
00:56:49We don't allow uneducated brats like her in this school.
00:56:51Expel her immediately.
00:56:53Did you record anything you just said?
00:56:55Done.
00:56:56The audio recording and security footage have both been backed up.
00:56:59You just said you run things at this school?
00:57:03That's...
00:57:03That's not what I meant.
00:57:05Interesting.
00:57:0670% of this school is held under my family fund.
00:57:09The other 30%, that's mine personally.
00:57:17Daughter?
00:57:19She's your daughter?
00:57:21We didn't mean it like that.
00:57:26Since a simple apology is too much for you, then we'll do it another way.
00:57:30Ethan, initiate full due diligence on their company.
00:57:33Prepare deflexment and liability assessment.
00:57:39Understood.
00:57:44Daddy was so cool today.
00:57:51Thanks.
00:57:53I only did what any father would do.
00:57:56Daddy, aren't you coming in?
00:58:01Do you want to come up for a coffee?
00:58:04Yeah.
00:58:05I'd like that.
00:58:17For real?
00:58:18$100 million just for this pea junk?
00:58:21Is this broken thing really worth that much?
00:58:30Keep your mouth shut and your pockets full.
00:58:32Take your money and get out of my sight.
00:58:40Here's what you wanted.
00:58:45Your daughter's laptop.
00:58:48That's enough.
00:58:53Don't misunderstand.
00:58:55I just...
00:58:56wanted to thank you for protecting her today.
00:58:59It's my honor.
00:59:12Madam President?
00:59:13There's been an anomaly in the Sentinel Project test zone.
00:59:16A regional power grid and traffic system were briefly disrupted.
00:59:19Almost caused an accident.
00:59:20We're still trying to determine the cause, but it's not looking good.
00:59:24A system bug?
00:59:25Tech says no.
00:59:26Someone bypassed the safety thresholds and accessed Echelon at route level.
00:59:30The only person with access to that level is you.
00:59:35I never touched that level.
00:59:38Madam President,
00:59:39I can personally guarantee it.
00:59:41Quinn would never do this.
00:59:44I believe you both.
00:59:46But until we find the real intruder,
00:59:48you two will need to undergo a joint investigation.
00:59:55I recommend we immediately freeze all of Quinn Lane's system access
00:59:58and suspend her from the Sentinel Project.
01:00:00I agree.
01:00:03I know better than anyone what she's capable of.
01:00:06If Quinn wanted to destroy the system,
01:00:08we wouldn't be talking about a brief disruption.
01:00:10Madam President,
01:00:11she's the only person with direct access to the...
01:00:16Quinn, I trust you.
01:00:17But you need to find whoever did this.
01:00:19Fast.
01:00:21Give me the full logs and a permission mirror.
01:00:24I'll track it down.
01:00:25Until this is resolved,
01:00:27your online privileges will be downgraded.
01:00:29Read-only tracking permissions.
01:00:31That's enough.
01:00:33Lucas,
01:00:34you'll assist her every step of the way.
01:00:36If someone's using Sentinel to temper with Echelon,
01:00:38the two of you are our first and last line of defense.
01:00:42Understood.
01:00:48Locking target.
01:00:54Filtering proxy nodes.
01:00:57Got it!
01:01:03Wait, that's...
01:01:04That's my root node IP.
01:01:09If...
01:01:10If I compare this with my old logs when I was in prison...
01:01:15Match confirmed.
01:01:16Source identical.
01:01:19Even the IP traces back to me.
01:01:26Based on the evidence,
01:01:27I'm the one who broke in.
01:01:38You didn't do this.
01:01:40Don't let numbers convict you.
01:01:45I wrote the core code myself in prison.
01:01:47The security threshold is so high,
01:01:49even you can't break in.
01:01:51By design,
01:01:52no one but me should access it.
01:01:55You weren't the only one on the Echelon project.
01:01:59Access doesn't equal capability.
01:02:02Don't start by ruling people out.
01:02:05As Sherlock Holmes said,
01:02:06when you've eliminated the impossibles,
01:02:08whatever remains,
01:02:09however improbable,
01:02:10must be the truth.
01:02:16You're right.
01:02:17I've been staring at the IP.
01:02:19Where it came from,
01:02:20I never checked who wrote the code.
01:02:22If I switch to code signature tracing,
01:02:23ignore the source node,
01:02:24and match the author fingerprint of the core call block...
01:02:35How could it be him?
01:02:38Who is he?
01:02:41Alvin.
01:02:46What about him?
01:02:48He's supposed to be dead.
01:02:58His file in the National Security Archives?
01:03:04Alvin.
01:03:05One of the core engineers from the early Echeline system.
01:03:08He worked on several top-secret national operations.
01:03:11Three years ago,
01:03:11National Security informed me
01:03:13he was killed in a training accident.
01:03:18This firewall is way too conservative.
01:03:19It's going to slow the whole system down.
01:03:21I'd rather lose a millisecond
01:03:22than let one bad command slip through.
01:03:24All right.
01:03:25Well, you're the one running Echelon, after all.
01:03:30Alvin died accidentally
01:03:32during a training exercise.
01:03:33Further details are classified.
01:03:36How?
01:03:41I actually thought he was dead.
01:03:42And now he taps into Echelon
01:03:44during the Sentinel test,
01:03:45but only causes a brief disruption.
01:03:47No real damage.
01:03:51Which means he didn't want destruction.
01:03:53He wanted to be found.
01:03:54Then what the hell is he after?
01:03:55Someone who stayed hidden for three years
01:03:56doesn't just drop a signature and walk away.
01:03:58Getting you to trace it,
01:03:59that's only step one.
01:04:01Whatever comes next,
01:04:02he's already planned it.
01:04:04Then we follow the trail he left behind
01:04:06and use it to bait him out.
01:04:19She's already traced it back to you.
01:04:23Good.
01:04:24That's why she's the one behind that legendary code.
01:04:30Quinn,
01:04:31it's time we settled our score.
01:04:34An anonymous source claims
01:04:36the Echelon code has breached its safety threshold
01:04:39and its creator,
01:04:40Quinn Lane,
01:04:42also controls as the Sentinel project.
01:04:44Is that too much power for one person?
01:04:46Giving national security to an ex-con?
01:04:48What could go wrong?
01:04:52These idiots can't even read a line of code.
01:04:55The more we react,
01:04:57the more he wins.
01:05:01Boss,
01:05:01we've been getting a lot of threat emails
01:05:03and a few unknown cars have been tailed.
01:05:05Lose them.
01:05:06Starting today,
01:05:06double the bodyguards.
01:05:09Wherever she goes,
01:05:10I go.
01:05:11Even you're getting nervous now?
01:05:13I'm nervous.
01:05:14Because you're taking all this heat
01:05:16and acting like it's nothing.
01:05:22The Sentinel project needs a new director.
01:05:25At the very least,
01:05:26her duty should be suspended immediately.
01:05:29Quinn,
01:05:30the evidence isn't in your favor right now.
01:05:32Maybe you should step back for a while.
01:05:36We can't change leadership now.
01:05:38If Quinn steps out,
01:05:39Sentinel collapses.
01:05:55First he stages an incident
01:05:56to prove Echelon can be breached.
01:05:58Then he spreads anonymous leaks
01:05:59to fuel panic,
01:06:00pushing you to strip my control
01:06:02of the system.
01:06:03He doesn't want a contract.
01:06:05He wants the system and the power,
01:06:07both in his hands.
01:06:08Once Quinn's out,
01:06:09he's the only one
01:06:10who understands the core code.
01:06:16He thinks my only option
01:06:17is to walk away.
01:06:19But I've got another move.
01:06:21What?
01:06:22He wants national security
01:06:23in his grip?
01:06:24I'll give him a chance.
01:06:26All I need
01:06:26is for him to make one more move.
01:06:29Then I'll drag him out of the shadows.
01:06:37If we want to catch Alvin,
01:06:39we have to let him think
01:06:40he's already won.
01:06:42I need a small technical task force.
01:06:44Off the record.
01:06:45They report directly to you.
01:06:50That's not proper procedure.
01:06:51Procedure won't stop a traitor.
01:06:54Form a technically skilled team
01:06:56with trustworthy members
01:06:57who maintain strict confidentiality.
01:06:59Quinn handles the technical trace.
01:07:01Lucas runs intel and resources.
01:07:04Next step,
01:07:05we find where he's hiding.
01:07:09Replay all edge note traffic
01:07:10from one hour
01:07:11before the Sentinel incident.
01:07:12Focus on any
01:07:13non-operational right activity.
01:07:15Abnormal right detected.
01:07:16Target,
01:07:17Provincial Backup Data Center.
01:07:20That's our backup facility
01:07:21for national security.
01:07:22No outsider
01:07:23should know its location.
01:07:24And yet he does.
01:07:25And he planted
01:07:26a back door right here.
01:07:28Remote control IP traced
01:07:2921 A1VN.
01:07:32A1V.
01:07:33Alvin.
01:07:34Gotcha.
01:07:35Next,
01:07:36time to flush him out.
01:07:38Tomorrow we hold
01:07:39the Sentinel press conference.
01:07:40Just like planned.
01:07:41We haven't caught him yet.
01:07:43If we go public now,
01:07:44other countries could jump in
01:07:45and attack.
01:07:45If the system gets breached,
01:07:47our entire national security
01:07:48network collapses.
01:07:52It won't.
01:07:53If he makes one more move,
01:07:54I'll lock onto his location
01:07:55in real time
01:07:55at the press conference.
01:07:57And tomorrow is the best shot
01:07:59to prove Sentinel security
01:08:00to the world.
01:08:01We don't just block the hit.
01:08:03We prove that even with
01:08:04Alvin leading the charge,
01:08:05they can't crack this wall.
01:08:08All right.
01:08:09Then the press conference
01:08:11becomes a live fire drill.
01:08:15You still dare hold
01:08:17a press conference?
01:08:20Tomorrow,
01:08:21you both fall hard
01:08:24in front of the entire world.
01:08:28The creator of Echelon.
01:08:31The symbol of the nation.
01:08:33Time they learned to kneel.
01:08:41Now, please welcome
01:08:42the Madam President
01:08:43for her remarks.
01:08:47Project Sentinel represents
01:08:49the next evolution
01:08:50of national security.
01:08:51Building upon the Echelon to...
01:08:59Quinn!
01:09:03Ladies and gentlemen
01:09:04of the press!
01:09:06This is so-called
01:09:07most secure system?
01:09:09Mr. Hayes,
01:09:10you mean...
01:09:12Sentinel already failed once
01:09:13because of its creators.
01:09:14It was all over the news.
01:09:16They ignored the warnings
01:09:17and still finished
01:09:17the project anyway.
01:09:19This isn't incompetence.
01:09:20It's a complete disregard
01:09:22for national security.
01:09:24You're referring to
01:09:25Quinn Lane and Lucas Hayes?
01:09:26Exactly.
01:09:27They knew the flaws,
01:09:28they pushed it through,
01:09:29and now you're all
01:09:30seeing the consequences.
01:09:34Quinn!
01:09:35Do you still claim
01:09:36Sentinel is secure?
01:09:38Sentinel is secure.
01:09:39Everyone, please.
01:09:40Just wait.
01:09:41Return trace initiated.
01:09:45Got him.
01:09:53Since everyone's
01:09:55questioning Sentinel security,
01:09:57let's demonstrate.
01:09:59Watch the screens.
01:10:05Quinn,
01:10:07today's finally
01:10:08your day to fall.
01:10:18She reversed
01:10:19the channel?
01:10:20National security!
01:10:22Freeze!
01:10:30That's
01:10:31the source
01:10:32of the attack?
01:10:33This is Alvin,
01:10:35original Echelon
01:10:36early engineer.
01:10:37Three years ago,
01:10:38he faked his death
01:10:39and fled to Country A,
01:10:40selling our core
01:10:41national secrets.
01:10:42Recently,
01:10:43he sneaked back
01:10:44into the country,
01:10:44trying to break through
01:10:46our highest level
01:10:46information firewall
01:10:47and sell the core
01:10:48security system
01:10:49to Country A.
01:10:50The attack you just
01:10:51witnessed
01:10:51was monitored by Sentinel
01:10:53from start to finish.
01:10:55From the first
01:10:56abnormal data packet
01:10:57to locating his
01:10:58real position,
01:10:59total time elapsed,
01:11:0157 seconds.
01:11:03From now on,
01:11:04any hacker who dares
01:11:06touch Echelon or Sentinel
01:11:07will be located
01:11:08within one minute.
01:11:09No exceptions.
01:11:10No escapes.
01:11:16Now that's not just
01:11:18a firewall.
01:11:19Now that's not just a firewall.
01:11:34The rigged computer
01:11:35you picked up for Alvin
01:11:37traced straight to Quinn's IP.
01:11:39We found it all.
01:11:40You have no proof.
01:11:42Its proof is already
01:11:43on its way.
01:12:00Alvin, you could have been
01:12:01a hero of this country.
01:12:03Why do something like this?
01:12:06Ask her.
01:12:07We've been working well
01:12:08together, haven't we?
01:12:10I respected your skills
01:12:11and even gave you
01:12:11full access.
01:12:13Respect!
01:12:13A convict sitting above me
01:12:15giving orders,
01:12:15that's respect!
01:12:16I bled for national security.
01:12:18You wrote some code
01:12:19in prison,
01:12:20suddenly you're the creator.
01:12:21The president personally
01:12:22picks you to lead
01:12:23and I'm just your assistant.
01:12:24How is that not humiliation?
01:12:28We chose the person
01:12:29best suited for the job.
01:12:31Best suited?
01:12:32You wanted a headline.
01:12:33A genius felon story.
01:12:35Not some invisible grunt
01:12:36like me.
01:12:36You geniuses.
01:12:37Everywhere you go,
01:12:38thrones waiting.
01:12:39Everyone orbiting your gravity.
01:12:40So when people flatter you,
01:12:42crawl for you,
01:12:42you don't even notice.
01:12:43You think it's owed.
01:12:47You'll never have a real friend.
01:12:50No one around you
01:12:51truly cares about you.
01:12:54You won't get to me.
01:12:56Look how Jason treats you.
01:12:58Then look at me.
01:12:59Everyone around you
01:12:59either uses you
01:13:00or hates you.
01:13:01That's your fate.
01:13:03Time's up.
01:13:05Keeping you off the
01:13:06echelon system
01:13:06was my best decision.
01:13:28Mom, over here!
01:13:31Why are you still
01:13:32helping Lucas?
01:13:32He's just using you!
01:13:34He only needed you
01:13:35to secure this project!
01:13:41Luke?
01:13:43It's cold out here.
01:14:02Wow.
01:14:12Lucas,
01:14:13why did you leave me
01:14:14five years ago?
01:14:16Company emergency.
01:14:18I left the ring,
01:14:19asked you to wait.
01:14:19When I came back,
01:14:21you were gone.
01:14:23So,
01:14:24I thought you ran out on me
01:14:26and it was all
01:14:27just a misunderstanding?
01:14:30I never forgot you
01:14:31all these years.
01:14:32Or that night.
01:14:34I'm sorry.
01:14:35I couldn't face
01:14:36hearing you out.
01:14:38It doesn't matter.
01:14:39As long as you
01:14:40can forgive me.
01:14:43Mom,
01:14:44does this mean
01:14:44Dad can come home now?
01:14:46On TV,
01:14:47families always
01:14:47live together.
01:14:48Of course.
01:14:49From now on,
01:14:51Daddy will stay
01:14:51with us forever.
01:14:53From this day forward,
01:14:54this is Dad's seat.
