"Why do any of us do anything?" "Yeah, but you don't like it, you're not feeding a habit, so why are you here?" "Life has brought me here." "So if you weren't here, what would you be doing?" "Go back to my hometown." "Finish nursing school." "What's your town like?" "This is pointless." "What's your town like?" "(sums)" "Quiet." "Under a mountain." "Nice houses with brightly painted window frames and white picket fences." "I miss it." "So like I said, why are you here?" "My son was sick." "His care was very expensive, I had to borrow a lot of money, quickly." "I didn't know where to go." "So I came here." "When you owe somebody that much, they own you." "So how is your boy now?"

"You know where we are is classified, and if you don't, I can't tell you." "Okay." "He's having some kind of episode." "We should just do what we've got to do." "He's not going to tell anyone."

"I keep blacking out and..." "I kidnapped a kid." "I don't know where he is now, because I'm me..." "I mean, lam the "me" I am now." "But soon I will change and I'll know, but I won't want to tell you." "Now, I know how this sounds." "I know this sounds crazy, but please, you have to believe me." "There's a child's life at stake."

"And we all grow obscenely rich." "Yeah, about that." "That's all very interesting, very "baroque" was it you said?" "Mmm." "Well, actually, Leonid, we may have mislead you, somewhat." "I mean, do we need your expertise?" "Yes." "Do we need you to build this bespoke virus?" "Yes." "But are we going to blackmail governments for money?" "No." "No, we're not." "We're not interested in blackmail here, and we don't need money." "You may not understand this, but our ambitions are a little wider." "I will not work if I do not agree to the cause."

"So thank you very much for my freedom, and an excellent place to work." "But I will go from here alone." "It's DNA coded." "You need an override code." "So why don't you relax and watch some TV."

"I've gone over all the transmission equipment." "It's working perfectly." "So, it has to be a fault or interference with the satellite." "Quite frankly, there's nothing we can do about that, 'cause it might just happen more, and possibly more randomly." "Every now and again, soldier boy is gonna get his head back until the reboot kicks in automatically." "Which, as we have seen, is plenty of time for him to make quite a mess of things."

"Why do you even care?" "Honestly, this really has nothing to do with you." "We upped the dose a little bit, so it'll be straight back down." "That's it, let the drugs do theirthing."

"WOMAN:" "Do you think your feelings of guilt led to your condition?" "just know I shoulcfve driven that night." "Well done, Ryan." "It's important what you read at night." "It sets the tone for your sleep." "We've done a lot of neurological tinkering." "A lot of therapy." "And he's traveling on the right road." "Isn't that so, my dear boy?" "Dr, Langham, I understand you have been experimenting in the use of bioware technology?" "I understood we weren't going to discuss that, Sandy." "What do you say to critics who claim you're making radical neurological interventions?" "That what started as a cure for your illness..." "My illness has nothing to do with it." "It simply hastened my research." "What do you say to allegations that claim the injured British military you import is nothing to you but a source of samples to play with?" "I want to talk about your own bioware firm, LSR." "We won't be talking about that, Fm afraid." "Hello, I'm Dr. Francis Langham." "And I'm Harkin Langham." "We're the family behind LSR Bioware."

"Nothing to do but wait." "It makes me edgy." "That van makes me edgy." "I'm gonna go check it." "I said stay!" "There's something I wish to talk to you about." "What is it?" "I'm having trouble remembering a few things." "Could be all the port switching causing neural decay." "You're also getting knockout doses of heavy drugs." "It's not healthy." "No, well." "Nothing we can do about that." "What else are you having trouble remembering?" "The override code for the weapons?" "In case Leonid..." "Override 4754." "Your birthday?" "4th month 2nd day."

"It's the organ he's controlling me with." "It's bioware." "He's made it smaller." "Nano, pico, Leonid's virus will carry it." "Everyone infected will grow a place the tech can sit." "This thing that they've done to me, they're gonna do it to everyone!" "He wants to control everyone!" "I'm just gonna shoot him!" "Please!" "Please!" "You have to believe me, please." "Please."

"Really." "Yes." "I'm trying to imagine what it will be like to control anyone I choose." "The prospect makes me quite giddy." "Me, too." "We'll be more efficient and powerful than any government in the world." "A few necessary sacrifices, and people will not only want control, they'll demand it." "Leonid wants to see his kid free." "Delivery is in a few days." "I would like to stretch my legs, son." "This?" "I might as well be back in the chair." "We can't let that happen." "You should have been chained the moment the fugues started, Father." "Ryan nearly destroyed the whole project." "The solar flares are settling, and they will no longer be effecting the satellite's signal." "One, maybe two episodes at most." "So you gave the satellite a high orbit." "I didn't know solar storms were going to interfere with the satellite." "It's an 11-year cycle." "This size?" "It's once every thousand years." "How am I..." "You should've checked all eventualities." "I did." "I've sacrificed so much." "I have worked so hard." "You demanded obedience, and I obeyed and succeeded, despite this." "You're right." "Your behavior these last few months has impressed me." "Thank you." "I may not often say, but I am proud to be your father." "Embrace me, son!" "Ryan." "Clever, I admit." "But what now?" "Save that kid?" "From out here, the middle of nowhere?" "In the amount of time that you have left?" "I don't see that happening, do you?" "Just enjoy the sun on your skin, breeze in your face." "Bird singing." "I have a suggestion." "Let's have a drink." "I'll show you a picture of your wife." "You remember her, don't you?" "Come." "Have a seat." "I get it Ryan." "I do." "Did I ever tell you about my mom?" "She was 35." "She was killed along with 26 other people by a solo crazed gunman who didn't wanna pay taxes anymore." "Now, how is that fair?" "He did the wrong thing." "I'm doing the right thing." "Just like your wife." "She's gone." "Move on." "Don't spend the few remaining fragments of your life suffering." "Enjoy them." "To living every moment as if it were your last." "You're right." "So now I know what I need to do." "What's the point?" "You don't wanna do that." "You'll kill us both." "You followed me." "Following, watching, everywhere just like you asked." "I used the money you left me and the truth is, no one's been as good to me as you." "Ever." "There isn't anytime." "So you might as well just let me die." "Will you, Ryan, come back again?" "Maybe once or twice." "That's enough to save the boy." "We both have lost people that we care about." "We shouldn't lose this kid." "Put these on before you change." "Why are you really helping me?" "What else do I have?" "(RYAN GROANS)" "(BANGING ON DOOR) Hey!" "Reply, Eden." "(CHAINS RATTLING)" "Right answer, hero." "How long?" "Three days." "We're not far, but we haven't much time." "The other guy's been looking." "Ten minutes till you change back, right?" "Yeah." "Here you go." "All right." "Let's roll." "This is where it's all going down." "Whatever it is." "Hibiscus." "I started a countdown." "So you'll know." "Okay, I need you to listen to me." "You need to run now." "'Cause if you see me again, it won't be me." "Do you understand?" "No." "Yes." "Yes." "No!" "Listen, I'm trying to save your life." "No." "No." "(BEEPING)" "AUTOMATED VOICE:" "Welcome, Dr. Langham." "I've made your virus, integrated the biotechnology." "Now let my son go, you bastards." "Let him go!" "HI have to test it." "They killed Leonid..." "Drop the gun, Ryan." "Dr. Langham." "Yes!" "Drop the gun or the boy dies." "We took this subject to test the new virus when we rescued you from the plane." "Or me, I should say." "Less than a day, the body assimilates imbedded picotech." "Subject's online in two." "New population-control satellite's been launched." "You're looking at the first of the new breed." "I thought I was the first." "Third actually." "An expendable prototype." "All I have to do is walk out there, and within days, without them realizing it, people will be ready to be controlled." "Ready to be given purpose, my dear boy." "What do you plan to do with me?" "Nothing." "Your satellite will be back online in a few moments." "I may just push white noise through your signal, keep you around like my favorite old pair of slippers." "You won't be coming back again, Ryan." "Any last requests?" "A drink." "I do have one more question." "Why?" "You know how you control the masses?" "Fear." "Humanity does appalling things." "Some of them, I've experienced." "We saw so many tragic cases come through the unit." "It was sickening." "War." "War." "War." "Endless fighting and dying, and dying and fighting." "But in the world that I create, if you break my laws, you will simply be switched off." "Your signal overtaken." "And that fear will create a beautiful future." "A world without conflict." "A world of harmony." "Harmony." "Exactly!" "So why do you wish to stop me?" "Because I want my life back and you don't have the right." "Not only do I have the right." "It's my duty." "Your life." "You have no life." "I've been your life!" "I took you because you ended yours when you allowed your wife to die, because you couldn't make a choice." "It's important what you read last thing at night." "It sets the tone of your sleep." "That was one of the many things you taught me." "I learnt so much from you." "So, so much." "Things I'd never even heard of before." "Like valencies, isomers and chemical reactions." "Did you meet him?" "He's dead." "Doesn't matter." "How about this beautiful creature next?" "You're fond of her aren't you?" "My dad likes her, too." "My mother had more class." "But this isn't just for her." "We need a new world and this is it." "Your dad's plan won't work, Harkin." "I agree." "My father's an idealist, it doesn't mean he's wrong." "You see, I put a little more thought into it." "There are no good guys and bad guys, Ryan." "Just opinions." "But you know the right way to get one individual controlling everyone?" "By having me controlling the right individual." "For example, let's just say a particularly unstable world leader." "Control's inevitable in some form, whether it's us or not." "But this being airborne, people are gonna purge their systems." "They're gonna mimic the tech, they're gonna destroy the satellites." "I know that." "But me having the right person, doing the right thing to ensure that this planet has a future." "Now that makes sense, Ryan." "That's how I'll remake the world." "There's absolutely no reason to stop me." "You don't give up, I infect her, we win." "You shoot me, this falls, it goes airborne, we win." "You do nothing, you time out, I win." "This is not a situation that you can shoot yourself out of." "I guess not." "All this for a kid?" "You've caused me so many problems, Ryan." "So, I'm gonna let you watch me inject her before you time out." "Admittedly, it'll be a little different for my father." "Let's just see if he likes being inside her once again." "Something for him to toy around with before he ultimately realizes that he's not needed anymore." "She doesn't deserve that." "Oh, I know that." "But we should always try and do what's right for our family, Ryan." "You of all people should know that." "Missed." "(GROANS)" "Let's see how you like it!" "Hey, whore, say goodbye..." "(SCREAMING)" "Hey, Ryan." "Come on." "Come on up." "You okay?" "Here." "Here." "His name's Alex." "I want you to look after him as if he were your own." "Thank you so much." "No!" "You don't have to do this." "If I don't do it, I'm gonna change back." "Please!" "Please!" "I'm sorry." "No!" "Time's up!" "(GROANS)" "You okay?" "I got you." "Hang on." "It's okay." "Hang on a second." "Ryan?" "Hey, it's me." "It's okay now, it's over!" "Harkin and Langham?" "They're dead." "Look, I couldn't risk anyone else tuning in, so I cut them out." "Where are we?" "Home." "Look." "(BEEPING)" "I tried explaining to him as best I could." "It'll still probably take him a little time to get used to you." "He's a good kid." "I was thinking that maybe we could all hang until we figure things out." "Mmm." "(GROANS)" "Baby, that was no minor surgery." "You need to rest." "I have an idea." "You take control." "(BUZZING) MAN: ...hang tight." "We're live in five." "Ryan?" "Ryan?"
