"And who is this I'm to negotiate with?" "Caprica's Minister of Defense, Val Chambers." "And if this negotiation does not go well?" "It's best not to speak of such things." "May I have some time to think about this?" "(CHUCKLES)" "Of course." "But not too much time." "(MUSIC PLAYING)" "DANIEL:" "What goes on here?" "LACY:" "Pretty much anything." "No limits." "That's the motto." "Down there is the kill zone." "Get a gun, get five guns, walk in and start shooting." "(GUN FIRING)" "(SCREAMS)" "Shoot your friends, shoot the Prime Minister, shoot yourself, whatever." "Back that way are the group sex and drug dens." "Keep going past that and you'll find the really gross stuff." "Hi." "(GRUNTING)" "This is a fight room." "You can frakking beat anyone you want." "WOMAN:" "Kill her!" "DANIEL:" "So what's this?" "LACY:" "Human sacrifice." "What?" "Virgins." "They offer them to Hecate, Goddess of the Underworld." "When I created the Holoband, this isn't exactly what I had in mind." "Yeah, right." "The porn sites were the first ones to license that technology." "Everyone knows that." "But that's different." "That's for adults." "Zoe always said you can rationalize anything." "So what?" "You and Zoe came here for sex?" "At first." "We used the group sex rooms like everyone else, but then after Ben showed us the way, showed us the way, we saw this place for what it was." "Trash." "The way?" "There is good and there is evil in this world." "There is a right and there is a wrong, but only through the one true God can we know the difference." "And Zoe knew." "Because Zoe knew God, and God touched her heart, and gave her the ability to create" "life itself." "ZOE:" "Why did you bring him here?" "He needs you, Zo." "Hi, Daddy." "ZOE:" "I thought that was you at the club yesterday." "Thought I got away before you saw me." "Guess I wouldn't make a very good spy." "You're an avatar, a virtual representation of Zoe." "Nothing more." "I'm a little more than that." "A lot more, actually." "I'm sort of her." "Crazy as that sounds," "I am her." "I'm Zoe Graystone." "Zoe is dead." "I know, and I'm so sorry about that, more than you can know." "She was like..." "Like my twin sister." "No, that's not right, either." "She was more than that." "We were like echoes of one another." "It's hard to describe." "(STAMMERING) So, what is this, really?" "Did Zoe hack some kind of rudimentary emulation software or something?" "She said it was a combination of hacks and some..." "Okay, that's enough." "What was the purpose of this thing?" "I'm not a thing." "I'm not going to argue with a digital image." "The human brain contains roughly 300 megabytes of information." "Not much, when you get right down to it." "The question isn't how to store it." "It's how to access it." "You can't download a personality." "There's no way to translate the data." "But the information being held in our heads is available in other databases." "People leave more than footprints as they travel through life." "Medical scans, DNA profiles, psych evaluations, school records, e-mails, recording videolaudio," "CAT scans, genetic typing, synaptic records, security cameras, test results, shopping records, talent shows, ball games, traffic tickets, restaurant bills, phone records, music lists, movie tickets, TV shows." "Even prescriptions for birth control." "You do not tell the Guatrau you need time to think about anything." "You say, "Yes, sir." "Thank you, sir." "May I have another?"" "You swore allegiance to him, Sam." "Not me." "You have no problem taking his cubits." "I don't care if he put me through law school or not." "I'm tired of doing his dirty work for him." "You just fire me if you don't like it." "You of all people should know that the Ha'la'tha does not fire people, Joseph." "They bury them." "ZOE:" "Yeah." "I remember that." "You put me up on your shoulders so I could see the band as it marched by, but we were standing under a lamppost," "(LAUGHS) and I smacked my head so hard I saw stars." "Took you to the emergency room just as a precaution." "I hated that." " Yeah." "The lights and the doctors and that smell." "But I remember you holding my hand the whole time." "You said you wouldn't let go." "She could've programmed those memories into you." "But it is a lot of detail for such a minor event." "It's possible she could've found a way to translate synaptic records into usable data." "She did." "Yes, but a person is much more than just a bunch of usable data." "You might be a good imitation, you might be a very good imitation, but you're still just an imitation." "A copy." "I don't feel like a copy." "Daddy..." "Can I..." "May I hold you, Zoe?" "What're you doing to her?" "Stop it, Dr. Graystone!" "Stop!" "What did you do to her?" "I captured the code Zoe used to create the avatar." "Why?" " It's time for you to leave." "Serge, cancel Lacy Rand's security clearance." "Yes, sir." "(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)" "(KNOCKING ON DOOR)" "Sister Clarice, you wanted to see me?" "Lacy, I'd like you to meet Agent Duram." "Hello, Miss Rand." "Agent Duram has a few questions he wants to ask." "Lacy, why don't you have a seat?" "I understand you were friends with Ben Stark." "Sure." "I knew Ben." "We have evidence to suggest that he was involved in the attack on the lev." "That's crazy." "I have to agree with Lacy." "That's an absurd allegation, Mr. Duram." "I'm afraid we have forensic evidence linking him to the bombing." "Were you aware of his involvement with the Soldiers of the One?" "CLARICE:" "Ben Stark was a good and decent boy." "He would never be involved with some kind of a..." "Of a terrorist organization." "Lacy, did you know that Ben was involved?" "No, and I don't believe it." "What about Zoe Graystone?" "What about her?" "Were you aware that she was a member of Soldiers of the One, as well?" "She's just gone through an incredibly traumatic event." "Where does the Athenian Academy stand on the question of monotheism, Sister?" "Are we under investigation now?" "Just a question." "The Academy is dedicated to following the path of the Gods, the Goddess Athena being our patroness." "We are, however, open to all forms of worship, including belief in a singular God." "That's very tolerant." "And how many of your students are practicing monotheists?" "You know I can't answer that." "It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe?" "Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all-powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned, and in whose name the most horrendous of acts can be sanctioned without appeal?" "You seem to know a great deal about the subject." "Know your enemy, Sister Clarice." "Love your enemy, Agent Duram." "That is what we followers of Athena believe." "I'll be in touch." "(BUZZING)" "(CROWD BOOING)" "Worthless bunch of losers." "You know, I should've remembered you own the Buccaneers." "A fantasy since I was a kid." "Now, William, what'd you think?" "I think Jenkins tanked the game." "Well, maybe you should come and tell him yourself." "Come on." "Yeah, tell me what, Dr. Graystone?" "This young man would like to discuss the finer points of midcourt defense with you, Rod." "Sure, Daniel, no problem." "What's your name, kid?" "Willie Adams." " Willie, I'm Rod." "I know who you are, Mr. Jenkins." "So, how do you think we did tonight?" "Not that great." "(LAUGHS) Keep it positive." "You're among champions here, pal." "I'd like to speak with your father if you don't mind hanging out with the team." "Is that okay?" " Sure." "This is Sean." "If you want something, anything, you just ask him." "Okay." "Now, you behave, Son." " Okay, Dad." "You know, that was the first time" "I've seen him really light up since the accident, so thank you so much for doing this." "Please, please, it's easy." "And you?" "How are you holding up?" "You know us Taurons." "We're nothing if not a stoic people." "(CHUCKLES)" "Do you mind if I ask you a somewhat strange and personal question?" "What would you do if you had the chance to be with your daughter again?" "You don't have to answer that." "I'm sorry." "No, no." "It was a personal question." "I just hadn't thought about it." "Most of my family, including my parents, died in the Tauron civil war, so my brother and I came here as orphans." "When we arrived, they drove us to this orphanage." "I remember this field of wildflowers on the side of the road." "It might seem strange to a Caprican, but there are no flowers on Tauron." "Not one." "It was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen in my life." "All the colors, the petals, the softness, and" "I wept openly, for the first and last time." "So I guess that's what I'd tell Tamara, to find those things in life that make you cry," "that make you feel." "Because they're what make you human." "I guess that's what I'd tell Tamara if I could." "Wow." "William, I'm guessing you'd like to see the game room, yes?" "Yeah." " Serge?" "Go have fun." "SERGE:" "Yes, Daniel?" "Please escort William down to the game room." "Show him how to use the equipment." "Right this way, William." "It's quite a place you got here." "I still miss tinkering down in my parents' basement, you know?" "This all seems a bit much." "Ever tried one of these?" "Uh..." "I'm not much for that stuff." "Indulge me, please." "Sure." "Just step right in here, if you would." "Right there." "This is what happens when you buy a Holoband at any retail store." "I saw it on the news." "Basically, I'm going to scan your image for your avatar, which is, in essence, a virtual copy of you, physically." "Now, just stand still." " Okay." "You're gonna feel a slight tingling sensation in your skin, but I assure you, it's not harmful." "You can step out now." "There you are." "I've looked better." "If you will just sit here, we are ready to go." "Now, just relax, close your eyes." "Remember, it's going to seem real, very real, but it's all virtual." "Just an illusion." "Okay." "(BREATHES DEEPLY)" "It takes getting used to." "Can I talk?" "I guess I can." "Where are we?" "Inside a very basic computer program." "I haven't had time to do any decorating yet." "Step over here." "Just tell yourself to walk." "What are you doing, Daddy?" "Working." "Joseph, this is Zoe," "my daughter." "My Gods." "(GASPS) Boo." "Frak!" "(JOSEPH GRUNTS)" "What the hell is this?" "What kind of sick, twisted thing are you doing here?" "There's nothing twisted about it." "And I didn't do it." "Zoe did." "Zoe did?" "Turns out she was kind of a chip off the old block." "That's not her." "Our daughters, they're gone." " Yes." "You know this." "Yes, but what if they could come back?" "You're insane." "Do you know what your brain is, Joseph?" "It's a database and a processor, that's all." "Information and a way to use it." "And what my daughter figured out was..." "Was how to harness all the information that made her who and what she was." "It's genius, really." "She took a search engine and turned it into a way to cheat death." "No, it's..." "It's an illusion." "You said so yourself." "Yes." "You're right." "You're right." "She's a copy." "But she's a perfect copy in every way." "Still doesn't make her your daughter." "There's an axiom in my business," ""A difference that makes no difference, is no difference."" "She looks like Zoe, she talks like Zoe, she thinks like Zoe, remembers all the events of her childhood, has all the same likes, dislikes, flaws, strengths, all of it." "Who's to say her soul wasn't copied, too?" "You can't copy a soul." "And you would know that how?" "Hmm?" "How can you prove or disprove that idea?" "Look, I know what I know, okay?" "And I know you can't copy a person." "I know that she's my daughter." "I know that she is my daughter, and I know it in the only place that matters." "Here." "The only difference between her and the Zoe that lived in this house is just that." "She lived in this house instead of a virtual world." "I want to bring her here." "Joseph, I want her to live in this world once more." "I want to hold her in my arms, and I want to kiss her, and I want her to feel the sun shine on her face." "I want her to see the flowers at the side of the road, Joseph." "But for me to be able to transfer the virtual representation of Zoe you just saw in there into a physical body out here," "I need a very special, very particular piece of equipment." "A physical body..." "What do you mean?" " Yes." "Like a robot?" ""Robot" is a crude name for what we're talking about." "This is a cybernetic life-form node." "It's still a machine!" "It's artificial skin, eyes, hair, make-up." " It's cold." "It's dead." "It's..." "Yes, but these are surface details." "That's what we always tell our children, isn't it?" "What matters is on the inside." "The device that I need is called a Meta-Cognitive Processor." "The problem is, there's only one company that has this device, and it's not mine." "Okay." "The only one in existence is owned by the Vergis Corporation." "Ever heard of them?" " Yeah, sure." "I know your connection to the Ha'la'tha." "I know who and what you are." "I also know about the pit in your stomach." "I know about the sleepless nights." "I know about the wishing and praying to whatever Gods will listen that you could have everything back the way it was." "Well, I can bring Tamara back." "I can bring her back." " Get out of my way." "You can see your daughter again." "Isn't that worth whatever price you have to pay?" "If you leave now, you'll never know for sure." "You'll always wonder." "You'll walk by her room, you'll see her pictures on the wall, and you'll ask yourself every day for the rest of your life whether you had a chance to bring her back." "Now, if I'm wrong, have me beat up, have me killed." "I don't care." "But if I'm right... (SIGHING) If I'm right and you have a chance to see your daughter again," "possibly even your wife," "isn't it worth trying?" "Good morning." "Hey." "Morning." "What's this?" "I made you breakfast." "You made breakfast?" "Excuse me." "I used to cook for you all the time." "Eggs à la Graystone, wild-mushroom sausage, rosemary bread and, of course, your black tea." "Enjoy." "I miss you." "We can make it through this." "We can." "Together." "Just the two of us." "Yeah." "Thank you." "Eat, and maybe later on, I'll give you a chance to lose to me in straight sets." "JOSEPH:" "I need a favor, Sam." "I don't even know if it can be done, but I need something stolen." "(CHUCKLING)" "Really?" "You?" "I'm listening." " From the Vergis Corporation." "On Tauron." "Tomas Vergis is a good friend of the Guatrau's." "I doubt he'd sanction stealing from a friend." "What if I agreed to deliver the message he wanted to Minister Chambers?" "Isn't this one of those big lines of yours you're always so worried about crossing, Joseph?" "Are you sure you really want to do that?" "You're not actually threatening me, are you?" "Minister Chambers, I'm simply delivering a message." "There's no threat, real or implied, in anything I've told you." "(LAUGHING)" "You Taurons, you've got stones, I'll give you that." "Are you making a racial comment, sir?" "No more than you're making a threat." "Let's be clear." "I don't like your boss," "I don't like your planet and I don't like your people, so you crawl under that rock where your Guatrau lives, and you tell him that not only will I not be pressured or blackmailed, but the government of Caprica is going to take a very special interest in him," "his business and his low-life lawyers." "Perhaps you should sleep on it." "Deliver the message, errand boy, word for word." "Goodbye, Minister Chambers." "Have a safe journey." "I'm not going anyplace, you frakking dirt-eater." "(BOTH MOANING)" "(SPEAKING TAURONESE)" "(SCREAMING)" "(GRUNTING)" "(YELLS) (SCREAMS)" "(GRUNTS)" "(MOANING)" "(DOOR OPENING)" "(DOOR CLOSES)" "Hey there, you." "Always in the books." "Missed you at the club last night." "Missed you for two hours." "Sorry." "I haven't been much of a friend lately, have I?" "That's fine." "It doesn't matter." "Look," "I found something." "It changed my life." "I want to share it with you." "Changed your life?" "Sounds stupid, huh?" "Look, it's not." "It's real." "Come with us." "To what?" "A prayer meeting." "Because I don't go to enough of those." "This one is different." "You pray, Lace, but your Gods don't answer." "You hurt, but your Gods don't heal." "You go to the V-Club for sex and sin, but it doesn't fill the void in your soul." "There is truth in the world, Lace." "There is a right and there is a wrong." "And there is a God, a God who knows the difference." "LACY:" "That's how it started." "That's how I got involved." "I didn't know what to do, Sister, where to go." "You did the right thing by coming to see me with this, Lacy." "I, too, used to feel a void in my soul." "I, too, once hungered to know right from wrong." "But not anymore." "Sister?" "You're not alone." "(CRYING)" "So then, Ben did have something to do with the bombing." "He was the terrorist." "Labels like "terrorist" are what this corrupt and decadent culture calls people who are trying to fight the real evil in this world." "Ben was eager to strike against all that was slowly choking this world to death, and so he did something premature," "something unauthorized." "But was blowing up that train evil, wrong?" "No." "He was fighting evil with all his heart." "And Zoe?" "You have no idea how special Zoe was to us." "Or is." "DANIEL:" "Oh!" "I gotta hand it to Vergis, it's an elegant design." "But will it work?" "Well, I won't know until I put it into a cybernetic body and try and download Zoe's avatar into it." "How long?" "Well, a couple of days, at least." "I do have a surprise for you, though." "Your daughter's avatar is ready." "What?" "I used Zoe's original avatar program to search and download any data on Tamara Adams." "School records, medical DNA, you name it." "About 300 megabytes' worth." "You mean, she's in there?" "Yeah, the more I work with Zoe's code, the more I realize she was nothing short of a computer genius." "I want to see her." "Thought you might." "Baby?" "Baby?" " Daddy?" "Tammy?" "My Gods!" "Daddy." "My Gods." "(CRYING)" "It's okay, baby." "I'm right here." "I'm right here." "I'm so scared." "What is this place?" "What's going on?" "It's okay." "I feel so strange." "I know, but you're fine." "It's not fine." "It's not fine." "This is wrong." "This is so wrong." "No." "I know, I know, I know." "But the important thing is we're together." "We can be a family again." "I can't remember how I got here." "And I can't remember where I was before now." "It's confusing." "I know." "This is gonna take some time." "This isn't real." "This doesn't feel real, Dad!" "I don't feel real." "I'm real..." "This isn't real!" "It's not real." " Willie misses you!" "I miss you!" "We can be a family together." "We can be a family again." "My heart isn't beating." " I miss you." "Daddy, my heart isn't beating." "Daddy, why isn't my heart beating?" "Why isn't my heart beating?" "Why isn't it... (GRUNTS)" "(GASPING)" "My baby." " I know." "She couldn't feel her heart." "She couldn't feel her heart beat." " She'll adjust." "She's probably very confused by everything." "It's only natural." "No!" "No, it's not natural." "No, it's wrong." "It's an abomination." "Well, define "natural."" "These glasses help me to see." "Artificial limbs and organs help millions to live." "You'd hardly call those aids "natural,"" "but I doubt you'd call them abominations." "That's not what I mean and you know it." "Ah." "Uh-huh." "You mean, only the Gods have power over death." "Well, I reject that notion." "I reject that notion!" "And I'm guessing that you don't put too much stock in those ideas, either." "We have a chance to have our daughters back." "And your wife." "Think of what that would mean to your son, Joseph." "How much would it mean to William to be held by his mother again?" "You're not right." "You're out of your frakking mind." "Maybe." "Maybe." "I've certainly been accused of worse." "ZOE:" "Do you really think this download is gonna work?" "This is what I do." "Yeah." "This is what you do." "What?" "There's a part of me that doesn't want this to work." "Why?" "I don't want to be on Caprica." "(CHUCKLES)" "But it's your home." "No." "It's not." "It's never been my home, and it stopped being a home for the other Zoe a long time ago..." "I don't even know what that's supposed to mean." "Why do you think your daughter was on a lev train instead of being in school?" "Do you think she was just cutting school?" "Going shopping?" "She was leaving Caprica, and she wasn't coming back." "You don't know what she was doing, okay?" "You can't know because you weren't there." "I know where she was going." "She told me she had a plan." "She was going to Gemenon." "And you know why?" "Because she found God." "The real God." " Stop it!" "The children of Caprica are lost, Daddy." "Okay?" "We are all lost if we don't turn to the light." "Listen to me, okay?" "We'll talk about this later." "When are you going to realize that later is too late?" "When did you ever listen, ever want to listen?" "You and Mom, you knew it all." "Your arrogance was killing your daughter." "And that's how you lost her." "Not to some bomb." "ELECTRONIC VOICE:" "Daddy." "Daddy." "ZOE'S VOICE:" "Daddy." "Daddy." "(ALARM BEEPING)" "No." "Oh, no." "Oh!" "Oh, no." "Zoe!" "Zoe!" "(PANTING)" "(CRYING)" "Hi, Dad." "We're gonna make a new beginning, starting tonight." "You and me." "You know what?" "Our family's gonna survive this." "We're gonna get past this." "We're gonna put our lives back together again." "Mommy and Tamara are gone." "They're dead and they're not coming back." "So we have to honor them by continuing to live" "as best we can." "I want you to know who you are." "We come from a long, proud line of Tauron peasants who knew how to work the land and still stand proud." "You're named after your grandfather." "Did I ever tell you that?" "Nope." "William." "He was killed during the Tauron uprising." "Our last name isn't Adams." "I changed it after I arrived here on Caprica." "Our family name is Adama." "Adama." "And it's a good, honorable Tauron name." "Come here, Son." "MAN:" "Demonstration proceed, in three, two, one." "(GUN FIRING)" "ELECTRONIC VOICE:" "All targets neutralized." "Program completed by your command." "Dr. Graystone, you've not only secured a long-term contract but you've done a great service to our planet." "Thank you, Minister." "The Vergis Corporation have made certain accusations." "If they really thought they had a case, they'd have us in court by now." "Yes." "But no matter." "It was never our intention to take this contract off-world, anyway." "It's been my experience you can never trust a Tauron." "Deceit is in their DNA." "What'd you call it?" "Cybernetic life-form node." "A Cylon, Minister." "Hmm." "Cylon." "Interesting." "We did it, Doctor." "Yes, we did." "DANIEL:" "But it's not what I hoped for." "(PHONE RINGING)" "Yeah." "Hello?" "ZOE: (DISTORTED) Lacy?" "Who is this?" "It's me." "Zoe." "I'm here, and I think I'm gonna need your help." "Subtitles by LeapinLar"
