"Anyway, just, awesome work, man." "Really awesome." "Right on, man." "Right on." " Real cool." " Great." "So now that we're all done going down on each other, can we please hear the plan?" "Where are we at with Steel Mountain?" "(Mr. Robot) If I'm not mistaken, these lines aren't 100% safe yet, and we still haven't made the Colby project disappear." "Seriously?" "It's been weeks." "Any links or traces would have been owned by now." "The lines are clean, Boss, I swear." " Thank you." " I mean, um... if it makes you feel better, Romero and I can check..." "Great!" "Make me feel great." "I'm gonna hang back over here, collect my thoughts." "[groans] Ohh!" "What's her deal?" "Ah, she's a complicated woman." "Most malware coders are." "Am I right?" "She showed up at my apartment." "Why does she know where I live?" "Let's not focus on her." "That'll be like entering a bad K-hole you'll never wake up from." "Instead, I need you to focus on the next phase of our project." "Comet, the natural gas plant up around Albany?" "We're gonna blow it up." "Why would you blow..." "Comet plant's right next to Steel Mountain." "Which, as you know, is the off-site and data storage facility for every corporation in the SP, including everyone's favorite..." " Evil Corp. - [snaps fingers] Bingo!" "You're gonna destroy their tape backups." "They're gonna be looking out for something like that." "They've been on high alert ever since the hack." "From what I heard, they've caught their hacker." " Haven't they?" " No, they haven't." " Tyrell Wellick knows." " What they want him to know!" "He's a corporate robot just like the rest of them." "Besides, the entire company is gonna be reeling from all the data dumps we've got in store for them... and man, do we have some goodies." "Some good old-fashioned executive racism, sexism, fascism." "Trust me, we are gonna "ism" so much all over them they won't be able to see straight." "And asking for Colby's release as ransom was genius." "That'll only make his spotlight bigger, keeping it off us." "That neat little ditty was Trenton's idea." "She may look innocent, but I'd be careful." "She's got some Allah Akbar in her." "And while all that's going on, you will use your Allsafe security clearance to hack the Comet PLC, increase the pressure, causing a gas pipeline explosion making Steel Mountain go kablooey along with Evil Corp's soul." "They know about all this?" "You're the first." "Workers?" "Anyone living around the plant..." "They all die?" "We'll give them a head start." "Sound some alarms." "They'll be fine." "You're blowing up a gas pipeline." "The world is a dangerous place, Elliot, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing." "This is war." "People will die." "C'est la mort." "And once we blow up the pipeline," "Darlene's worm will kick into high gear at the U.S. data center which you helped to us install, thank you very much." "The redundant backups at their eastern data center in China... the Dark Army is covering us on that." "Dark Army?" "Why, man?" "They got no code." "They hack for anyone:" "terrorists, North Korea, Iran, Russia..." "Which means they hate U.S. capitalism just as much as anyone." "Last but not least." "Steel Mountain." "The hacker's dilemma." "What to do when a bunch of data you want to destroy is completely off the grid?" "[explosion noise]" "I'm not killing anyone." "Tell me one thing, Elliot." "Are you a one or a zero?" "That's the question you have to ask yourself." "Are you a yes or a no?" "Are you going to act or not?" "Yo... you've been staring at a computer screen way too long, homie." "Life's not that binary." "Isn't it?" "Sure, there are grays... but when you come right down to it, at its core, beneath every choice, there's either a one or a zero." "You either do something or you don't." "You walk out that door, you've decided to do nothing, to say no, which means you do not come back." "You leave, you are no longer a part of this." "You become a zero." "If you stay, if you want to change the world, you become a yes." "You become a one." "So, I'll ask you again:" "are you a one or a zero?" "An innocent man is in prison because of what I did." "Come on, let's not kid ourselves!" "This has nothing to do with Colby." "This isn't even about my revolution." "This is more than that for you." "This is about how those bastards slowly killed your father and how you wished he'd done something about it." "But he didn't." "Because he was a zero, just like you're being right now." "Fuck you." "Disappearing again?" "I'm not killing anyone." "Leave me out of this." "You don't get to disappear from this." "We can do it with or without you, but you're a part of it either way!" "Yeah, even your stupid hoodie can't protect you, bitch!" "(Elliot voice-over) This was a mistake." "I've gotta turn them in." "Should I turn them in?" "Will I get into trouble?" "Shit, she's right." "I'm culpable now." "No, we're culpable." "You're in this with me, so start thinking of solutions now." "[muffled electronic music]" "Shayla?" "[knocking on door] Yo, Shayla." "Yo, bro." "Can I help you with something?" "I, uh... just need to talk to Shayla." "Oh, your girl." "She in the tub." "[knocking on door] Shayla." "Yo, she'll be out in a minute." "Can sit and wait if you want." "I think we should check on her, make sure she's all right." "[laughs]" "You a funny dude." "I like you." "Don't be rude." "Sit down and chill." "No, that's right." "You only do this." "Only nigga I know that take withdrawal meds while he using." "That's smart." "Probably even convinced yourself you ain't an addict." "[laughs] Oh, shit." "Forgot to introduce myself." "I'm Fernan... (Elliot voice-over) Fernando Vera, Shayla's supplier." "One of the worst human beings I've ever hacked." "His password? "eatadick6969."" "Aside from the massive amounts of money he spends on porn and webcams, he does all his drug transactions through emails, IMs, Twitter." "The fact that the cops haven't caught him yet is beyond me." "If they had half a brain cell, they'd be able to crack his gang's simplistic code, if it can even be called that." "After only a couple of hours of timing his tweets with related news articles," "I figured out that "biscuit" and "clickety"" "clearly referenced guns." ""Food," "sea shells" or "gas" for bullets." "And the ultimate: "rock to sleep early."" "I haven't made the direct connection to a hit yet, but the math of guns plus bullets usually adds up to one thing." "I've thought about turning him in, but he's Shayla's only supplier." "I take him down, I lose my drugs, and with everything going on right now, I can't have that." "You get that, though?" "[inhales] [laughs] Anyway, bro," "I ain't nothing to worry about." "Just making a drop for you." "What's your name, anyway?" "Elliot." "(Vera) What it mean?" "What, you ain't never Googled it?" "Man, you gotta do that." "The meaning of a person's name is important, bro." "Yo, she good!" "She good." "Trust me." "Took care of that shit myself." "You remind me of me when I was younger, depressed and sullen." "Matter of fact, tried to kill myself, a couple of times." "Never could get that shit right." "Biology wasn't my strong suit." "I hated myself, man." "Still do." "Thought that shit was a weakness for a long time." "Then I realized that shit was my power." "People walk around, act like they know what hate means." "Nah, no one does, until you hate yourself." "I mean... truly hate yourself." "That's power." "You ain't scared of me, are you?" "That's good." "Means I didn't waste my time making friends with you." "[chuckles]" "You don't really need these, do you?" "Man of your courage can last through a little withdrawal." "Ya know, you the only reason why I met Shayla." "I'm the only nigga in town carrying everything, including your precious Suboxone." "So, in a weird way, I should be thanking you." "You brought her to me." "Your star orbiting with mine, gravitationally, brought me the love of my life, Elliot." "I mean, this, us?" "Being here?" "This has... beautiful meaning." "But make no mistake, that girl in there... is mine." "I don't know what I'd do without her." "Now, I don't know what kind of arrangement you had with her before, but now that we friends..." "I trust you respect this boundary." "Feel me?" "[chuckles]" "A dude earlier today gave me that same look." "Only thing I gotta say is, there's a smart time to be scared, bro..." "And a stupid time." "[door closes]" "Shayla?" "(Elliot voice-over) The lock pick." "Every hacker's favorite sport." "The perfect system to crack, mostly because unlike virtual systems, when you break it, you can feel it." "You can see it." "You can hear it." "[metal clatters]" "Shayla." "Hey." "Shayla." "Wake up." "Mm." "What happened?" "You okay?" "Why was that asshole here?" "Why am I in the tub?" "(Shayla) I don't know, um..." "I told him I needed your pills." "He came over." "We smoked a little." "You remember having sex with him?" "What?" "No." "(Elliot voice-over) But he definitely does." "Okay, let's go." " Get your purse, make sure..." " Stop." "I'm not going anywhere, okay?" "What do you mean?" "Oh, he's just gonna get away with it?" "You can't go back to him." "Hey, I don't need the pills." " Just find someone else." " I can't." "He gives me a really good deal on the split." "I make good money." "(Elliot voice-over) There it is again, the invisible hand at work, controlling us, even if it pushes us past our threshold of pain." "It's not gonna stop." "What if he does it again?" "Promise me you won't do anything?" "I'm serious, Elliot." "There's nothing to be done here." "It's not like I have a choice." "Hey..." "Would you mind sleeping here tonight?" "(Elliot voice-over) Choices." "Maybe Mr. Robot's right." "That's what this is all about, the yesses and nos of life." "But do we decide them or do they decide us?" "Fernando Vera." "I get rid of him," "I get rid of my drug dealer's supplier." "I get rid of the morphine." "And the pain I've been holding in comes rushing out." "Sure, I can try to find another dealer, but like Vera said, no one on the streets deals Suboxone." "I could go back to digitally counterfeiting scripts, but pharmas spend a lot of dough protecting their wares." "Most places only take paper scripts." "Continuously getting legit refills isn't realistic, and neither is being a junkie." "So I quit cold turkey or let Vera exist." "I know what you're thinking." "The answer's too obvious." "Vera may have been groping Shayla before, but he's graduated to rape." "Just like Shayla, he's left me no choice." "He can't be allowed to exist anymore." "(Krista) Perhaps we should start with how you're feeling." "Not good." "What's not good right now?" "Everything." "Humor me with some specifics." "How do we know if we're in control?" "That we're not just making the best of what comes at us, and that's it." "Trying to constantly pick between two options." "Like your two paintings in the waiting room." "Or..." "Coke and Pepsi." "McDonald's or Burger King?" "Hyundai or Honda?" "Hmm." "It's all part of the same blur, right?" "Just out of focus enough." "It's the illusion of choice." "Half of us can't even pick our own... our cable, gas, electric." "The water we drink, our health insurance." "Even if we did, would it matter?" "You know, if our only option is Blue Cross or Blue Shield, what the fuck is the difference?" "[indistinct radio chatter]" "In fact, aren't they..." "aren't they the same?" "No, man... our choices are prepaid for us, long time ago." "I'm sorry you feel you have no control." "Thought I was doing something good." "I was a part of this... project." "Thought I was going to be a part of something special." " And now?" " Now..." "It turned out to be a mistake, like everything else." "What's the point, right?" "Might as well, just... you do nothing." "Might as well do nothing." "You've brought up this issue before, this issue of not feeling like you're in control." "Do you remember?" "When we spoke about your father." "You talked about how he chose to do nothing when he was battling his cancer." "You told him he could have fought the company that caused it." "He could have told people about it." "He could have sought better care than what he was getting." "Instead, he did nothing." "Maybe your father felt the same way as you do now." "After all, like you said, what's the point?" " It's different." " What's different is you've found options, Elliot." "That's the power you have." "That's the control you own." "You don't have to just take what life gives you." "Come on." "Tell me what is going on with you." "I cannot help you if you keep me in the dark." "Shut up!" "Shut up!" "You've got bags under your eyes." "You're yelling." "You're jittery." "For the last month, I have seen you slip into old patterns, old behaviors." "What is going on?"

"He was acting so out of it at work today." "Um..." "Are you saying something, babe?" "(Angela) Something's wrong." "Should I go over there?" "And just..." "Check in on him?" "Uh... come on." "That's ridiculous." "You know he's always been a weirdo, right?" "I'm really worried about him." "Um..." "My Arizona buddy Fred hit me up." "He wants to grab a drink." "Shouldn't take too long."
