00:06The thrusters are dead. We are getting sucked into the black hole. It's over.
00:11Hang in there. I'm booting up the backup power. Nothing can happen to the Gene Archive.
00:25There's no escape. Transfer all power to the core pod. Get ready to eject it.
00:59There's no escape.
01:18The hull. The gravity. How did you do that? What are you?
01:23Someone who refuses to accept this ending.
01:29What are you doing?
01:31To rewrite your ending.
01:50Sector 4? But this was three years ago.
01:53I don't know.
02:01I don't know.
02:08I don't know.
02:13I don't know.
02:21I don't know.
02:22I don't know.
03:00Evelyn, look at me. It's really you. You're alive. You're really alive. I thought I lost you forever.
03:06Lyra, what are you doing here?
03:08No, no, listen to me. We made it. You're alive. What happened to you?
03:16I will never let you die again.
03:23You didn't just destroy that thing. You reversed time. Who the hell are you?
03:37I'm asking you, what the hell are you?
03:44I'm the one giving you a choice. Keep that gun on me, and Jace dies in 2 minutes 14 seconds.
03:54Jace, no. He's at the 7th line.
04:00He's been ambushed. Save him now or watch him die.
04:03I'm the one giving you a choice.
04:16JACE!
04:21JACE!
04:25JACE!
04:27Look at me. Please stay with me.
04:30JACE!
04:31Lyra?
04:35Is it really...
04:38I saved him.
04:40But if you shed one tear for him, I will finish what those monsters started.
04:48The dark energy is spreading. We have to get him to the Sector 7 underground bunker. But he's too heavy!
04:56Lead the way.
05:03Target locked. Lyra, purge protocol activated.
05:22The pod's slowing it down. But only temporarily. We need a military grade quantum battery. Otherwise he dies in two
05:30hours.
05:36That mech out's outside. Its target is you.
05:40You change the timeline. It'll be waiting at the armory.
05:44Then I'll kill it first.
05:53Don't ever touch me like that again.
05:55Monomolecular wire.
05:59You'd already be in pieces.
06:10Blue first. Otherwise you trigger the alarm. Just like you did at Outpost 3.
06:16How do you know about Outpost 3? Nobody survive except me and Jake.
06:20Because I watched you die there. Over and over again.
06:35Intruder detected. Termination authorized.
06:57Golden blood? What the hell are you?
07:02Take the battery. Be ready to move.
07:28You're bleeding. Can you still walk? Move!
07:33Lyra, the bunker shield is failing. There's another Reaper.
07:37Another one.
07:40It's a trap. Fall back.
07:45Jace doesn't have time for that. I'm going through.
08:03The shield is breaking. Drop it. We need cover.
08:06Run. I'll buy you time.
08:09I don't leave useful assets behind to die. Move!
08:24Evelyn, two minutes out. Open the gate.
08:27Lyra, the pod's crashing. And there's something in the better place.
08:35Goal!
08:49Goal!
09:05They're getting in!
09:19Goal!
09:26Upwater books.
09:31Goal!
09:33That's beautiful!
09:33autonomic Jack owners.
09:33trying to bust accounts off since the earth.
09:35Jump to the ground.
09:35Upwater books.
09:3520,000 people get different.
09:36Upwater things.
09:37Uh.
09:39huh.
09:41Plug it in.
09:57Erase.
10:10That's Arc 1.
10:18Lyra.
10:21This world...
10:23is a comic book.
10:24A comic book? What are you talking about?
10:27Have you lost your mind? Who exactly are you?
10:30A reader.
10:32Someone who watched you die a billion times, Lyra.
10:35This is the first time I can actually touch you.
10:50Save the crazy talk. I need your firepower alive.
11:02Evelyn! What are you doing?!
11:09Correcting an era, Lyra.
11:15You were supposed to die on Arc 1, sweetie.
11:20You're ruining the story.
11:23Shut up! Don't you dare use her voice!
11:50Get up! I don't have time to die here! And you're not dragging me down!
12:06It's the Reaper's poison. You have 30 seconds before your heart stops.
12:15Then save me.
12:17Or I'll take you with me.
12:27My blood...
12:28is the only cure.
12:30It'll make you faster, stronger...
12:32stronger...
12:33but it comes with a leash.
12:44Once you taste it...
12:46you belong to the script.
13:14The gift isn't free, Lyra.
13:17My heart stops.
13:18Your stops.
13:18Your stops.
13:20My pain.
13:21Your pain.
13:24Bad luck, Lyra.
13:25You don't get to throw me away anymore.
13:33What is this?
13:35A hallucination?
13:38No.
13:39Rendering failure.
13:40She's deleting this panel.
13:48Lyra.
13:49You were never supposed to see this.
13:52Broken pieces have to be recycled.
14:05Stop following the rules.
14:07In this world...
14:09the glitch is your weapon.
14:14You said he sees the most important plug-in, right?
14:29I knew it!
14:30You can't afford to let him die!
14:33If he's in pain,
14:34the whole world glitches!
14:39If this is just a play,
14:40then I'm walking off the stage.
15:00No more reader bullshit.
15:01Now tell me.
15:02Who are you?
15:03No more reader bullshit.
15:05Give me a name I can actually understand.
15:16You can call me Oriel.
15:21Welcome to the real wasteland, Lyra.
15:32Welcome back.
15:36I have our best idea.
15:37Am I going to die?
15:40This time,
15:40Please,
15:40And we've found it.
15:41I am going to be,
15:44I'm going to be,
15:44I'm going to die,
15:45Like,
15:45we've taken care of it.
15:46I have nothing.
15:47I am not going to be,
15:50I will leave the system.
15:51I will have to leave.
15:55Don't bleed out. I need you functional.
16:25Damn it.
16:39Control your heartbeat. You're distracting me.
16:43Then cut it out, Lyra.
16:45Because as long as we're tethered, every time you touch yourself, I feel it.
16:50So tell me, how do you expect me to calm down?
17:02Pain is a great way to kill a distraction.
17:05Welcome to my world, Oriol.
17:14The agent is patching the system.
17:18She realized pure force can't kill us.
17:21So what's her plan B?
17:23Narrative correction.
17:25She's sending a reset switch.
17:42Jess.
17:44Anomaly detected.
17:46Target Leela.
17:47Initiating timeline reset.
18:02Touch her and I'll incinerate your code.
18:10Target locked.
18:30Step away from him.
18:33Now.
18:35He's aim is the starter.
18:37He is the reset trigger.
18:40One touch.
18:43And you're dead again.
18:49Lyra.
18:50Run.
18:52I can't...
19:11Don't look at him.
19:12Look at me.
19:19Lyra.
19:19Take the shot.
19:20Don't let me do this.
19:21I can't do this.
19:38Chase.
19:40He's down.
19:41But the grid is tearing apart.
19:43We have to move.
20:02Drop it.
20:03You'll kill us both.
20:04Good.
20:05The virus can't run on dead hosts.
20:10See if a hard reboot works on God.
20:12No.
20:26No.
20:31Chase tore his own arm off.
20:34He was crying.
20:35You said this is a comic book.
20:38A script.
20:39So his tears?
20:41Was it all just ink on a page?
20:43Is this a joke to you?
20:45Watching us bleed?
20:47Watching us scream while you readers just turn the page?
20:59Does this feel fake to you?
21:01In a billion timelines, you're the only one who didn't surrender.
21:05You fought.
21:06You fought.
21:07You bled.
21:08You killed.
21:10I didn't come here to watch a drawing, Lyra.
21:12I came for you.
21:22The mark.
21:24It burns.
21:35It's not the proxy.
21:37Something else found us.
21:47No!
22:01What?
22:03Oh!
22:06No!
22:06Oh!
22:08Oh!
22:08Oh!
22:27It hurts, Lila.
22:30Why do we always have to die?
22:34Every single time.
22:46Who are you?
22:47What are you?
22:48I am you.
22:51Who died a billion times.
22:58Is this another trick?
23:00Another simulation?
23:03Answer me.
23:13So I'm supposed to fear this?
23:15My own pain?
23:20The system can wipe the files, but it can't erase the phantom pain.
23:26This is the weight.
23:28It's the weight of your a billion deaths.
23:31In these billion deaths?
23:33You've been crying, haven't you?
23:40Give it back to me!
23:47Fatal error.
23:49Anomaly excludes threshold.
23:53Initiating physical purge.
24:12You didn't just destroy that thing.
24:14You reversed time.
24:16Tell the system.
24:17The purge is cancelled.
24:18The purge is cancelled.
24:20The purge is cancelled.
24:24Beautiful.
24:30You rewrote your own code.
24:33Can you walk?
24:34I'm going back to Sector 7.
24:36To kill Evelyn?
24:38No.
24:39To ask her who wrote this script.
24:43And then...
24:45I'm going to find the author.
24:57Keep up.
24:59The proxy is hardwired to the core.
25:01She won't talk.
25:02I'll make her.
25:25Unauthorized access.
25:34Who wrote this script?
25:35Give me a name.
25:43You want to find the author, Lyra?
25:46Ask the man behind you.
25:51Ask him who created your hell.
26:01You wrote this.
26:03You drew the Reapers.
26:04You scripted Evelyn to wear my mother's face.
26:08Lyra.
26:12Is it fun, Orion?
26:14Playing God with our lives.
26:16Does it turn you on to watch us bleed?
26:18Ten billion times.
26:19You sat up there flipping the pages while I was torn apart in the dark.
26:23And now you drop down here playing the fucking hero?
26:26To play the victim?
26:28I was the author.
26:30But I burned the script for you.
26:32I fell into this cage to be with you.
26:35You want to be with me.
26:37You want to feel what I feel.
26:49You played God with my life fine.
26:51From now on, I am God.
26:54As you wish.
26:56My God.
26:57Author privileges completely over-videred.
27:00Initiating protocol blank canvas.
27:02World weish in progress.
27:04World weish in progress.
27:08Protocol blank canvas initiated.
27:11Formatning sector seven.
27:15Stand up.
27:26Show them what a God's weapon looks like, Orion.
27:29Kill them all.
27:34As you command.
27:56Use the pain.
28:09The physics engine is breaking.
28:12Gravity is about to flip.
28:19Then let's fall upwards.
28:46Kill them all.
28:53Sloppy. You let it touch you.
29:01Punish me later.
29:05Brace for impact.
29:15The system re-writ the core logic.
29:17It's trying to bury us in the sketch layer.
29:20A sketch is meant to be erased.
29:28Deploying ultimate anchor. Eradicate the anomalies.
29:38Targets locked.
30:06He is a dead node. End him.
30:10I don't need your permission to decide who gets to live
30:23Wake up Jace fight the code
30:30We grew up in the sector for ruins help me tear this out if my life is a script
30:37Then I choose how it ends

31:11Jace
31:30We have a tower to climb.
31:33Gravity's gone to hell. We have to jump through the debris.
31:42Then jump.
31:48Warning. Una-authorized heat approaching the core. Accelerating deletion.
32:09Hold on.
32:33It's hard code. Brute Force won't dent this. It needs an administrator's signature.
32:40Then sign it.
32:53You have made a mess of my publication, Orion.
32:59You were the architect, Orion. You held the pen. Now look at you. A stray dog wearing a glitch's leash.
33:08How pathetic. It's better than sitting in the dark with you, writing fake tears.
33:21So you're the one who wrote my billion deaths? Your writing is absolute garbage!
33:28Delete.
33:30You love her pain so much, Orion. Fine. But she won't remember you.
33:57Protocol memory wipe. Enjoy your new genre, Lyra. A perfect, painless utopia.
34:13Lyra, don't close your eyes.
34:23Good morning, sweetie. Breakfast in bed for the beautiful bride.
34:29Morning, Mom. I slept great. But my wrist feels weird.
34:36It looks perfect, Lyra. Not a single blemish.
34:39Yeah. It's just... it feels too light. Like I forgot to put on a watch or something.
34:45Look at you. Flawless. Jace is going to lose mind when he sees you.
34:59Lila, what are you doing? You're ruining the skin.
35:02I don't know. It just itches. It feels like something heavy is supposed to be there.
35:11What are you doing here?
35:31You look perfect.
35:34Thanks. This place is intense.
35:52I have the patch. It'll vanish in one second.
35:58No marks. That's much better.
36:03I need some air. I'm walking back.
36:05You look perfect.
36:12You look perfect.
36:13Lyra.
36:15Why can't I?
36:18Why can't I?
36:30Why can't I?
36:44Laira, you're zoning out on me.
36:55Laira.
36:59Stand up, you're white as a shield.
37:02Is the pain in my chest?
37:04I can feel his pain.
37:06It's a hologram, an art proust.
37:09You're probably dehydrated.
37:11Stay put, I'll go grab some water.
37:13Who are you?
37:15Why, why can I feel your pain?
37:19It's just a show.
37:21Go home.
37:28Go home.
38:08You shouldn't be here.
38:14Who are you?
38:16It's just an immersive show, miss.
38:18A piece of art.
38:24Go home.
38:26The rain will ruin your clothes.
38:34You're lying.
38:41I'm not.
38:43Just go.
38:45Please.
38:54Please.
39:00Priest.
39:01Do you, Laira, take this man in sickness and in health, as long as you both shall live?
39:19The dress is stained
39:21It's ruined
39:25You're having another episode
39:27Drink this
39:30It will fix everything
39:31What is that?
39:34Medicine
39:35For your nerves
39:37Stage 2 discharge initiating
39:48This wedding
39:49This dress
39:50All of it
39:51It's fake
39:52He's real
39:53That pain is real
39:54You're confused
39:57Drink the medicine
39:58Let it pass
40:01It's fake
40:05This place
40:06Lyra
40:07Do not walk out of this church
40:09Watch me
40:21Lyra
40:23Return to the ceremony
40:33Citizen
40:34Please remain calm
40:36Emotional anomalies
40:37Are temporary
40:54See you
40:54Boy
40:54Be
40:54Watch me
40:54Let's go
40:55Huh
41:07Watch me
41:08To highlight
41:13This exceeds standard anomaly parameters
41:18She is not supposed to remember how to fight
41:23She just stopped caring about your perfect script
41:28Final phase initiated, execute
41:45What did you just want to do?
41:50Suckers
41:51Suckers
41:52Suckers
41:52Suckers
41:56Us
42:12Security breach. Unauthorized entity within perimeter.
42:21Let go. Please.
42:34I was the author.
42:37PYRAAA- You wrote me a billion deaths.
42:50And I witnessed every single one.
42:53PYRAAA- Don't die. I'm not done with you yet.
42:57PYRAAA- As you command, my god.
43:08PYRAAA- You're bleeding.
43:11PYRAAA- Don't talk.
43:16PYRAAA- Anomaly restored.
43:18PYRAAA- You put me in a box.
43:20PYRAAA- You put him on a cross.
43:22PYRAAA- Now I erase you both.
43:30PYRAAA- Your mistake was keeping us both alive.
43:41PYRAAA- Combat capability exceeds all parameters.
43:47PYRAAA- Full suppression.
43:49PYRAAA- Here's the only parameter.
43:59PYRAAA- You wore my mother's face.
44:04PYRAAA- She was a skin for the proxy.
44:06PYRAAA- Nothing more.
44:08PYRAAA- She was more real than you.
44:19PYRAAA- There she is.
44:22PYRAAA- We're not done.
44:28PYRAAA- There's a hole in my page.
44:45PYRAAA- He's burned his core for you.
44:51PYRAAA- Jace burned his battery for you.
44:53PYRAAA- Evelyn is in pieces because of you.
44:56PYRAAA- And for what?
44:57PYRAAA- If you're going to wipe me, get it over with.
44:59PYRAAA- Wipe you?
45:00PYRAAA- No.
45:00PYRAAA- You I'm keeping.
45:02PYRAAA- The author's pet gets a special ending.
45:08PYRAAA- Well, shit.
45:25PYRAAA- You tore a hole in his page.
45:31PYRAAA- He can't undo that.
45:33PYRAAA- Why isn't he chasing us?
45:35PYRAAA- Because it's not his page anymore.
45:37PYRAAA- It's yours.
45:39PYRAAA- We're going down.
45:40PYRAAA- Now.
45:56PYRAAA- There's something down here!
45:59PYRAAA- I see it.
46:03PYRAAA- That's from the Ark.
46:04PYRAAA- The gene bank you grabbed.
46:07PYRAAA- It's real.
46:09PYRAAA- That's where we're heading.
46:11PYRAAA- That shouldn't be there.
46:31PYRAAA- Cut the link.
46:35PYRAAA- What?
46:37PYRAAA- The wipe is hitting me.
46:39PYRAAA- If we stay connected, it'll take you too.
46:43PYRAAA- So what?
46:45PYRAAA- So cut it loose.
46:47PYRAAA- Take the gene bank.
46:49PYRAAA- Get out.
46:51PYRAAA- You got this far on your own.
46:54PYRAAA- You don't need it now.
46:57PYRAAA- You came into this page for me.
47:00PYRAAA- You burned your core for me.
47:02PYRAAA- So don't you dare tell me to leave you behind.
47:15PYRAAA- All right.
47:17PYRAAA- Together!
47:18PYRAAA- Together!
47:26PYRAAA- It's gonna hold.
47:31PYRAAA- I know.
47:35PYRAAA- It stopped.
47:39PYRAAA- The gene bank.
47:45PYRAAA- It was never loaded.
47:48PYRAAA- Into his system.
47:51PYRAAA- I designed the arc outside the comics database.
47:57PYRAAA- He can't touch anything from there.
48:01PYRAAA- Then we stay in the light.
48:04PYRAAA- It's pulling the real world towards us.
48:07PYRAAA- Using the gene bank as an anchor.
48:09PYRAAA- How long?
48:11PYRAAA- Longer than we have.
48:19PYRAAA- That object is not in the database.
48:23PYRAAA- Where did you get it?
48:26PYRAAA- He's gonna throw everything he has left.
48:29PYRAAA- The whole system.
48:30PYRAAA- Once that hits, the gene bank won't hold.
48:41PYRAAA- You built this world.
48:43PYRAAA- You know how to break it.
48:46PYRAAA- I don't have a core anymore.
48:49PYRAAA- You gave me your blood once.
48:51PYRAAA- Now give me whatever you have left.
48:57PYRAAA- It's not enough.
49:03PYRAAA- Then we give it everything!
49:06PYRAAA- That's not part of the story!
49:12PYRAAA- He's not stopping.
49:16PYRAAA- Neither are we.
49:19PYRAAA- This isn't enough.
49:23PYRAAA- Not even close.
49:25PYRAAA- I don't have a core.
49:26PYRAAA- I can't give you the kind of power that breaks a page.
49:29PYRAAA- You built this world.
49:31PYRAAA- You built the tether.
49:32PYRAAA- You said it binds everything.
49:34PYRAAA- So bind this.
49:36PYRAAA- Not blood to blood.
49:38PYRAAA- Power to power.
49:39PYRAAA- If I push what's left of my blood into the tether,
49:42PYRAAA- And you push your dark energy in from the other end at the same time.
49:46PYRAAA- Or they make something new.
49:53PYRAAA- Now you.
50:07PYRAAA- That can't that power, does it?
50:12PYRAAA- We're close.
50:21PYRAAA- If I can't have this world, no one can.
50:27PYRAAA- Page zero.
50:44PYRAAA- It didn't work.
50:48PYRAAA- Not yet.
50:52PYRAAA- Take the gene bank.
50:55PYRAAA- The green light can still get you through.
50:58PYRAAA- Say that again!
51:04PYRAAA- The crack is still there.
51:08PYRAAA- I can't do this alone.
51:30PYRAAA- Go.
51:33PYRAAA- We go together.
51:37PYRAAA- Hold on.
51:38PYRAAA- Not letting go.
51:41PYRAAA- No.
51:43PYRAAA- No.
51:46PYRAAA- No.
51:48PYRAAA- No.
51:51PYRAAA- No.
51:58PYRAAA- No.
51:58PYRAAA- No.
52:29Still staring at it.
