"They know where and when you died, so you're a candidate for retrieval." "Space-time coordinates." "It's still raw, but it'll be perfected." "I don't get it." "Why not grab someone who's alive now?" "Look at these people." "They've lived their lives with no ozone layer." "Sucking up megadoses of carbon monoxide..." "... sulfurdioxide,mercury,lead, benzene..." "... nuclearwaste."

"She lives in Battery Park." "Safe behind the palisades of power." "She's an exec at the McCandless Corporation." "Only the biggest company in the world." "They own everything." "I must reach her." "I must see her." "That is the truth." "You must reach her." "They're not going for it." "We should try for the mineral rights." "Your try could kill the whole deal." "We're talking about 3 billion." "That's worth playing cards for." "Besides, I think they're ready to fold." "I want it taken off the table." "Now." "Why don't they return to the table?" "We will sign."

"You're a liar!" "Let go of me!" "Who do you think I am?" "You're not Alex Furlong!" "You're the bastard who stole his body!" "Damn it!" "Stop and listen to me!" "I'm Alex!" "I can prove it!" "Look at me!" "You gave this to me before the race." "Don't you remember?" "!" "That was yesterday." "What's happened to us?" "Go, go!" "Move, move, move!" "I escaped while they fought." "Then you just found me?" "Brad told me where you lived." "How'd you get in here?" "Through the open door." "Panel." "Security." "Central Locking reports authorized personnel." "No unauthorized access." "You're lying." "There's no other explanation." "Your voice couldn't have authorized access." "Intruder." "What'd you do that for?" "Whoever you are, you've got 30 seconds." "Attention, tenants." "You're wrong!" "Don't!" "Please remain calm." "All unlocked doors will be secured in 15 seconds." "Stay clear of the elevators." "They've been co-opted by Security."

"Calling in all support vehicles." "All vehicles in on this now!" "Hey, Furlong." "It's Vacendak." "I hate to say this but you're speeding." "Where we going?" "I hate the dark!" "Piss off!" "You can't get rid of me that easily." "Where're you guys coming from?" "Mom told me never to pick up hitchhI kers." "No applause?" "Show's not over yet." "Box him in and run him down." "Be gentle." "I want him without a scratch." "You should stop." "Imagine how upset we'd both be if you were hurt." "Oh, imagine." "Come on, Vacendak." "You couldn't catch a cold." "Or catch the clap in a whorehouse!" "Holy shit!" "How am I doing?" "Not bad." "The brake pedal's on the left." "Game's over, Furlong." "Don 't!" "Don't do it!" "If you drink any of that, I'm out of a job." "Lord, the strange things that wash up on this dock." "I'm beat." "You think so?" "Pretty much." "Then you're beat." "A man thinks he's beat, he's beat." "You want some of this?" "What is it?" "River rat." "How do you eat that?" "First you must cut off the head and the tail." "Then you gut it." "It's all a matter of the sauce." "You don't just plop down warm rodent on a plate and say:" ""Here's your river rat." "Would you ll ke white or red wine?"" "Not that there's any wine around here anyway."

"Did you ever see that?" "Me neither." "Eagles got too much self-respect." "How's yours?" "I'm okay." "Then you too can fly." "You can fly." "Maybe I can." "You ain't beat yet, Furlong." "Not by a long shot." "I know Alex." "I know what he's lI ke." "I know where he goes when he's upset!" "You're not even sure he's Alex." "Vacendak was." "And if it's not Furlong, we won't find him." "It's dangerous." "That's why you're here." "Thanks a lot." "He's not here." "I don't know." "Maybe it wasn't him." "It's me." "It's all right." "I'm okay." "What are you doing here?" "Slumming?" "If I knew it was you, I wouldn't have turned you away." "Why not?" "It seems to be the way it is here." "Brad tried to cash in on me." "Why shouldn't you get in on it?" "Listen to me." "Vacendak set us both up." "He learned my door code, opened up my place and led you into a trap." "This guy's the best there is." "You here to help me?" "Oh, my God!" "Ten million bucks?" "That's too much." "That's way too much." "Oh, I don't know." "Not really." "You're definitely Alex Furlong." "Something's come up." "I must see you." "You were clear the last time we talked." "What else is there to say?" "It's important." "Okay." "I've got some business at the Revolution." "Go there." "I'll see you there." "You got something going with him?" "No." "What's the hook?" "He knows about people on the run." "He helps them escape." "This place is on the fringe." "I keep a low profile, okay?" "Come on, I'll find Morgan." "I'll meet you at the bar." "Want a drink?" "Yeah." "Why not?" "Game over." "You lose." "Please try again." "You got a name, sugar?" "It's Alex." "Talk to Club Channel." "How do you ll ke it here?" "I don't." "Everyone's chasing me." "Really?" "What do they want?" "My body." "The self-absorbed type." "Do you know what you're into?" "You'll be killed for being with him!" "It's Furlong, the Freejack!" "Break this wide and patch it in." "You left him alone?" "He's resourceful." "So what do you do, Alex?" "I race cars." "I mean I used to." "I guess I'm between jobs." "Get him out of here." "We got network." "We have Freejack Alex Furlong." "Do you know how much you're worth?" " 10 million." "It's gone up. 15 million to anyone who brings you in." "Bring me in?" "I know someone who 's trying." "Goes by the name of Vacendak." "I got a message for you." "Fuck you, asshole." "Nobody's bringing me in." "Is this a hangover in the future?" "I've hidden people, but he's too hot..." "... buthecan'tstayanyplace long." "Can't you help?" "It's too big." "Stop playing dumb, you know what to do." "Go to McCandless." "I don't want him in this." "You have no choice." "He lI kes you." "Go to him." "Explain the situation." "Be at his mercy." "Hi, how's Tokyo?" "Something's come up." "I'm still in New York." "You're not in Tokyo?" "No." "How long have you known Julie?" "Couple of years." "Haven't seen much of her lately." "Why is that?" "She's busy wheeling and dealing." "McCandless owns her." "She can't be owned by anyone." "Listen, things have changed." "People are on the top or the bottom, no one in between." "Julie is on the top." "He's a Freejack, and legally someone else's property." "You think that's right?" "He died, Jule." "Someone paid to bring him back." "He belongs to them." "Should they let him be killed?" "Who's the client?" "Clients are guaranteed secrecy." "The Switchboard is a McCandless division even I'm not privy to its records." "Understand?" "I've gotta go now, I'm already late." "Where are you, Jule?" "I'm at a friend's." "Is he with you?" "No." "I'll check into it." "Thanks." "I won 't promise anything." "Legally I can 't interfere." "Why don 't you call in a few hours?" "I'll see what I can do." "Thanks." "Thanks, Mac." "All right, be very careful." "Bye." "Morgan's gone." "Good." "Alex..." "... I'ma lotoldernow ." "No." "You're beautiful." "What's the matter?" "I watched you die." "Furlong paid you a visit and you gave him Brad's address." "And you haven't seen him since?" "Are you lying, Sister?" "The good Lord says to turn the other cheek." "He never had to deal with dickheads lI ke you." "Mac's arranged for a boat to dock in an old recycling plant." "It's abandoned." "You shouldn't need that." "Hopefully." "I'm not coming with you, Alex." "I know." "I have a life here." "I can't walk away from it." "What about us?" ""Us" was 1 8 years ago." "It was two days for me." "Two days, Julie." "If I'd come to you the day before your race..." "... andsaid,"I havetoleave." "Come with me. " What would you've said?" "I would have said no." "You take care." "I don't know." "Remember the last time you gave me this?" "It's time, sir." "I'll be right out." "Well, it looks safe." "Every time I begin to feel safe, something bad happens." "You do all right." "Your portrait's up in lights all over town." "People see your face, they know you've not been caught." "You're a hero." "Shit, I ain't no hero." "I'm just looking after my own ass." "You and I know that." "But there's 8 million desperate people here." "My grandmother's one of them." "You keep making her happy, and I'll stick with you." "Is that it?" "I guess so." "Where the hell is everybody?" "You still feel safe?" "You're not getting on that boat, Furlong." "What the hell?" "Get them!" "Come on, move it!" "Move, move!" "Shit!" "Furlong's not there." "Or in the car." "Then find him and kill him." "Vacendak's here with his bonejackers." "Then kill them too." "Move it!" "Move!" "Move!" "Move!" "Move!" "Ripper, who's using hard ammo?" "Not bonejackers." "There's someone else." "We're trapped!" "What do you mean "we," white man?" "Just kidding." "I keep me covered." "There's no one below." "Grab some of this hardware and get out." "They're coming, and they don't want you alive." "If I run now, I'll be running forever." "I gotta find out who wants me." "Go." "I'll see what I can do here." "I keep my grandma smiling." "I will." "You looking for this?" "Freeze!" "Do it!" "Stunners only." "He wants me without a scratch." "Suck this, Vacendak!" "Why didn't you kill me when you had the chance?" "I was aiming at you." "They were in the way." "Well, they're not now." "You're right." "Tell me who's behind all this." "Who told you I'd be here?" "I'm sorry." "I can't tell you that." "Goddamn you, Vacendak!" "All I'm asking for is a name!" "Now who is it?" "Who's doing this to me?" "McCandless." "I saved your life." "And I gave you the name you wanted." "The name of lan McCandless." "Still, I'd hate you to think that I don't value my life highly." "I'll give you a five-minute start." "One Mississippi..." "... twoMississippi... ." "Get in!" "You're driving?" "Hurry!" "They're close behind." "I thought you were dead!" "Where'd you get this?" "It's Vacendak's." "I stole it." "Sure your boss didn't give it to you?" "What?" "McCandless is trying to kill me!" "Your boss!" "The man you've been calling!" "That's crazy!" "Vacendak told me!" "Then he's lying!" "Well, somebody is!" "Pull in there." "Call him on this thing." "I tried to get Mac, he's not there." "Then you call the company." "You call whoever's in charge." "Miss Redlund?" "Who's that?" "Mark Michelette, V.P. of Mac Corp." "Is someone with you?" "Mr. Furlong, what an unexpected pleasure." "Listen, whoever you are." "I'm with Julie and I'm armed." "I see that." "Stay calm, Julie." "We'll handle this." "Tell us your demands." "I want to talk to McCandless." "Mr. McCandless isn 't in." "He's expected shortly." "If you want to wait for him here, I'll arrange entry." "You do that." "What's that?" "I don't know." "It's a trace." "All right, I've got a fix on Furlong." "Where's he headed?" "Right to the gates of hell..." "... atMichelette'sinvitation." "They're in the elevator." "Put down the gun." "You can drop this absurd pantomime." "I watched the rest of the tape." "Most interesting." "Watch this bit." "This is good." "How touching." "A woman in love." "There's not the least chance you'd shoot her." "You'll be through when Mac gets back." "Mr. McCandless is in the next office." "Would you ll ke to see him?" "A virus, strain three." "He's been dead almost three days now." "Mac didn't have much time to organize this." "His mistake was asking me to carry it out." "McCandless snatched you." "He needs your body quite badly." "He has an hour on the Switchboard before his brain is irretrievable." "How do you suppose you'll deliver me to him?" "I have no intention of delivering you to him." "Nobody's being delivered to McCandless." "The time has come for change." "I'm taking over the company." "I have nothing against you." "I did organize the rocket attack." "I sent guns to the waterfront..." "... tostopMac from getting his new body." "Nothing personal." "In a short time, McCandless' brain will be electronic rubbish." "I'll be president of the company, and you two... ." "You two can do whatever takes your fancy." "Ms. Redlund..." "... yourservicesare no longer required." "They're on their way." "I kill them both." "This is too easy." "Think he'd just let us walk out?" "I don't." "Ready!" "Is there another way out?" "There's a back way." "One shot." "Think they'll stand in line?" "Aim." "Welcome to the lobby." "Have a nice day." "Hold it!" "Fire!" "Julie, you okay?" "Why the 1 00th floor?" "There's an escape module." "Michelette's private bodyguard." "Michelette." "Secure the building." "Find him and hold him for me." "You wanted a fucking palace revolt?" "Well, you got one!" "It's not stopping." "It's not stopping!" "Any other way to control it?" "This is it." "200." "They're headed for the Switchboard." "Mac's got them now." "We're going to the top." "Welcome to my mind." "You've been behind it all." "I never meant to harm anyone, least of all you." "You weren't meant to see any of this." "It's why I wanted you to take the trip to Tokyo." "By the time you returned, all this would've been over." "I spoke to you in Australia." "You were alive." "I'm sorry, Jule." "Sorry to deceive you." "Mr. Furlong, believe me, I never meant you any harm either." "We took you out a moment before your death." "The process did not shorten your natural life." "What about trying to shorten my unnatural life?" "Didn't start out that way." "I was assured all would go smoothly." "You were never supposed to wake up." "So you see, once the consciousness transfer was complete..." "... afaitaccompli,onlythen would I have shown you my new self." "Why do it at all?" "Because I love you." "I've loved you for years, since we first met." "But it was clear that nothing I possessed, no power or wealth..." "... nothingcouldmakeyou feel what I felt." "I held out hope that with enough time..." "... Icouldreachyourheart." "But time ran out." "I became ill." "I was dying." "You spoke of Mr. Furlong and how much you loved him years ago." "If only I could become this man..." "... whomyoulovedsomuch ...." "If I could somehow..." "... physicallybecomehim...." "Of course, I was mad." "I was quite mad." "I beg you both to forgive me."
