I haven't really
thought about it,

I'm just ready
for a fresh start.

We made a pretty good team.

Yeah, we did.

- We should celebrate.
- What are you doing tonight?

It's a rage room.

Hey, jenny. Hi.

You still have to see a doctor.

I needed to see you first.

I wanna tell you
that you were right.

You were right about me hiding.

You were right about
me being scared.

I felt like all I could do
is ruin things so that um,

That I couldn't get better here.

But that was my fear
of things going wrong.

Okay, look.

Hey.

We can take it slow.

Start right here.

Where we are.

Sorry.

It's okay, it's just work.

No, no, hey,

You can go to work.

It's important.

Me, I'm just, I'll

I'll take care of my stitches.

Okay

I'll I'll take a look at
them afterwards just to,

You know, to make
sure that they're okay.

- Come by the office?
- Yeah.

Okay.

Bye.

I can't believe we're about
to go into Olivia rice's house.

It's like visiting Kubrick
or something, man.

I didn't know you
were such a big fan.

When's the last time
she even made a movie?

Well, not since the 90's, but
my high school friends and I,

We used to do sci-fi marathons
of her, cronenberg, and Scott,

And we would do a bunch of
mushrooms and we would just...

Hey! Hey, are
you the detectives?

I called you, I
called the police,

But she won't let
me in the house.

- I'm sorry, ma'am, who?
- My stepmother.

She won't let me in because
I know she killed my dad.

Um, miss?

Lorde. It's lilium lorde.

It's my dad in there.

Okay, lilium, I'm
detective abed,

Maybe we can just hang outside.

Until you're ready to
give me a statement.

- Come on. Would that be okay?
- Yeah.

You must be the detective.

Everyone's been waiting for.

- Ms. Rice.
- I'm detective mcavoy.

Please, my husband
doesn't have much time.

Ma'am, I'm a homicide detective.

I thought your husband
already passed on.

Please.

You...

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

It's funny how some
people's homes look exactly.

How you would imagine, right?

So, whadda we got on this?

Xavier lorde, well
known neurobiologist.

Suffered from early-stage als.

He's been completely locked
in since his stroke last year.

His wife, Olivia rice,

Says he communicated
through voice technology.

He developed himself.

Ms. Rice says she found
him dead at 7:00 this morning.

But the stepdaughter,
lilium lorde...

Claims that Olivia
pulled the plug on him.

Well, it's not the oddest
thing for family members.

To have different stories.

Well, you haven't
seen what's odd, yet.

It's preparation for cryonics.

Cryonics?

It's people who wanna be frozen.

And woken up in the future.

Three letters?

Hey!

- Hey.
- Hi!

- Hi, there, captain!
- Whadda ya doin'?

- I didn't see ya sittin' there.
- Yeah?

Okay.

Whatcha doing? A little
shopping online there, are ya?

Are you okay?

- Who, me?
- Fine, what about you?

I'm doing well.

Cryogenics is the study
of low temperatures.

Cryonics is the use
of low temperatures.

To preserve people.

Cool.

Did you just...

Is there anything to the
stepdaughter's accusation?

The dry ice is is new for me,

But I don't, I don't
see any foul play.

Cryonics is really just a
alternative funeral arrangement.

If you're finished working,

I'd like my husband
back, please.

Ms. Rice, detective
mcavoy relayed your request,

But unfortunately, I, I
can't release the body.

Until I finish my investigation.

Investigation into what?

Xavier made his
wishes quite clear.

And what were his wishes?

I'm sure in your job you
meet people of different beliefs.

This is our belief.

Transhumanism.

That technology can
transform the human condition.

Xavier's wishes
are stated in this.

- This is?
- His living will.

Okay, it says here,

Upon his legal death his
body is to be sent to cryosleep,

Facility for the
patients of cryonics.

Xavier communicated
through his voice tech.

He told me exactly
what he wanted.

Just step back, please?

I'm his daughter. You're a liar!

You're not supposed
to be in here.

- Daddy and I spoke yesterday.
- Just watch it.

Listen to him.

Her cryonics obsession was
destroying his piece of mind.

Lilium, my sweet
child, don't be sad.

Daddy, I'm afraid of what
we'll do for this crazy belief.

I have to stop her.

You always know what's
best for me. Lily-bear...

Your father transitioned
to bio stasis naturally.

- He is a sick man!
- You are the sick one!

She knew I was coming here
and turned off his machine.

Before I could get
here to stop her.

- This proves that she killed him.
- Spoiled child.

If you truly cared, you would
know how much he wants this!

Okay, let's just, let's,

Let's just take a second, okay?

Was there anyone else
in the house last night?

Just the night nurse and myself.

Okay.

So, let's go over the events
of last night and this morning.

All right, Olivia,
you said you found.

Your husband dead at
around 7:00 this morning?

Dead?

Xavier is in a metabolic
state of suspension.

I got a notification
on my phone.

From the heart monitor company,

Saying Xavier was
having a cardiac episode.

I ran into his room.

Where you found Cedric?

Yeah, I am
dr. Lorde's night nurse.

No, barney is the night nurse.

What happened to
barney? Why were you here?

Barney had a family issue
and needed the night off.

Cedric replaced him.

Okay, so what happened next?

He's dnr,

So I called time of death and
immediately put him on ice.

It's what the family wanted.

Once Xavier went into bio stasis,

I called cryosleep so they
could take the body there.

And start the perfusion.

I got here just after 8:00 a.M..

When you typically overreacted.

And called the police.

We need to get on with this.

The clock is ticking.

If my husband's body degrades,

He will not be a
candidate for preservation.

Excuse us.

Xavier was hooked
up to a heart monitor.

Data is stored remotely so I'm
gonna try to call the company.

And see if I can find out
what time his heart stopped.

Yeah, and get an
exact time of death?

Right. If I can get a look
at the echocardiogram,

I may be able to tell
if it was a heart attack.

Or something more sinister,
like lilium's suggesting.

That'd be an impressive trick.

Yeah, it's worth a shot.

That's blood.

That's a perfusion machine.

I'm gonna go with sinister.

Perfusion machines are
usually used in hospitals.

To recirculate blood
in a, in a heart surgery.

So, you're saying that's five
litres of Xavier lorde's blood.

Dollars to donuts.

And perfusions normally
take a couple of hours.

Yeah, then dollars to donuts,

Olivia was lying about
finding him at 7:00 a.M..

Yeah. Exactly.

Stop! You're killing him!

Do you not understand?

- Coming through!
- Please stop!

- Murderer.
- This is a suspicious death.

I don't have a choice.

I won't let you do this.

Please.

I'm begging you.

I'll stop this autopsy.

I'm calling my lawyer.

He performed the perfusion?

Do you know what the
perfusion process is,

Detective mcavoy?

Or why it's essential
to our science?

Yes, actually,

Dr. Cooper
explained it a little bit.

It's when you pump
the blood from the body.

And replace it with an
organ-preserving solution,

- Kinda like an antifreeze.
- That's right.

Without it, the
cryo-freezing process.

Could cause the water
in the blood to expand,

Destroy the cells,
and putrefy the organs.

But I also know that even
the most skilled perfusionist.

Would take at least three
hours to complete that job.

You still wanna convince
me that good ol' Cedric.

Is just the night nurse?

Let me ask you,

What makes you so certain
Xavier will be brought back?

It's never been done before.

Tell that to the
wright brothers.

Okay.

Unimpressed by
man learning to fly?

How about harnessing
nuclear energy?

The internet?

You see, nothing seems
plausible until we make it so.

Then we forget, and act as
if it were there all the time.

One moment, please.

Security camera from
the neighbour's showed.

A van arriving at
about 4:30 a.M.

And leaving just
before 8:00 a.M..

That's when they
pumped the blood.

That van have a logo?

No, but I ran the plates.

It's a rental leased
out to cryosleep inc

Xavier lorde's research
assistant got in touch,

She's looking for
that talking box thing.

Good. Bring her in.

All right. I'll see
what I can find out.

We can't touch him.

According to his
wife's lawyer, no,

But I I'm working on it.

Can he at least be
moved into a locker?

The frozen carbon dioxide.

Is as good as putting him
in the morgue. He'll keep.

So, nobody touches
him 'til I say so.

Hey, dr. Garcia,

Thank you for doing
this on such short notice.

- I appreciate it.
- Are you kidding me?

This is one for the books.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Should we talk, or...
- Sorry,

Thank you for doing
this, and yeah, we

looks like we're up.

The honourable judge
Helen koo is now ready.

Proceedings can begin.

Judge koo, Clark
Coleman of the crown.

Representing the
office the coroner.

In a jurisdictional matter.

It's time sensitive, so, thank
you for accommodating us.

What are the facts?

Yes, thank you.

The next of kin is trying
to block my autopsy.

The decedent has a will,

In which they express their
wishes to be cryo-preserved.

And is the autopsy warranted?

Well, the parties involved
have been deceitful,

And as you can see from the
documents that I've sent you,

The body has also
been interfered with.

That's good enough
for me, mr. Coleman.

Dr. Cooper, paperwork will
be forwarded to your office.

You may proceed
with your examination.

- Thank you. Wonderful.
- Thank you.

Okay.

So, it's probably
not a good time, is it?

Sorry um, no,

Can can we...

Can we raincheck?

I can wait.

Okay.

Hey, are you okay?

- Me?
- Yeah.

I'm fine, kiddo,
don't you worry.

I promise, I'm fine!

You saw her again.

- Where?
- Where? Everywhere!

I saw her in there, she's
in that window over there,

Now she's over here.

I saw her at the
dining room window.

Look, it's... It's different.

It's not like it was.

I, I don't know if I like
it. It's just not the same.

I mean, I shouldn't look. Right?

I, I know she's not there,
so, my looking for her,

This looking is only
gonna make it worse,

But I just miss her so much.

- I know.
- I miss my Peggy.

It was great for a while, there.

You know, conjuring her
up and seeing her again,

But it's just not the same.

Listen... What can I do?

How can I help?

My god, you don't know, do ya?

Just you listening to me
and not thinking of me

I'm juas a crazy old man, it
just means the world to me.

Don't know what I'd do.

Without ya, to
tell ya the truth.

- I think I better take a nap.
- I think so.

- Just a 20-minute nap.
- Wake me up.

I'll bring you some.

How could he not
straighten these things?

Looks like the
members of cryosleep.

Yeah, probably.

- Check out the one on the end.
- It's our boy, Cedric.

Looking to secure your future?

Please excuse my lunch.

Busy, busy, we're
always eating on the run.

Please, have a seat.

I am the chief
physician of this facility,

Dr. Benedict Yeats, but
please, call me dr. Ned,

Everybody does.

I'm detective mcavoy, this is
dr. Jenny cooper, the coroner.

Yes, I was expecting you.

We, we have nothing to hide.

Not even about Cedric
there, employee of the month?

Not quite a night nurse, is he?

He's a highly
qualified perfusionist.

I, I hope he's not being
charged with anything?

Not yet.

Tell me, why did he
lie about who he was.

And what he was doing there?

No, no, no, no, no, no.

It was a misunderstanding.

My team and I absolutely
performed the perfusion.

On Xavier lorde.

I have a legally binding
contract to do so.

Okay, so Olivia just,
just called you that night?

Yeah, well that's the
name of the game.

We can't exactly book
appointments for our clients.

We aren't involved pre-mortem.

Because that would be illegal.

What time did Olivia call you?

About 4:00.

Yeah, shortly after
Xavier achieved bio stasis.

We arrived about 30
minutes after, and but,

We left before we were
able to complete the transport.

You mean, when the
stepdaughter, lilium, arrived.

Yes, knowing there was
going to be you know,

A family issue, we
opted to leave quietly.

Okay. And what,
what happens now?

Well, now I'm awaiting
instructions from Olivia.

Could we take a look
around your facility?

Cryotherapy bay.

Is home to
cryosleep's 153 souls.

As you can see,

Each of our patients
has their own capsule.

Your patients?

Our members have
chosen not to accept death.

As a foregone conclusion.

We place them
in liquid nitrogen,

Lowering them to a temperature
of -190 degrees Celsius,

And then they reside
here in members bay.

Have any of your members ever
been successfully resuscitated?

No, not yet,

But the science is far
closer to a breakthrough.

- Than you might think.
- Is that so?

How much does it cost
to get set up in here?

It's $265,000 for full
cryo-preservation,

And $125,000 for a neuro only.

- By neuro, you mean...
- Just the head.

Um, I noticed there are
very few of you working here.

It's an intimate operation.

I do have some part-time
staff to assist with the intakes.

And these intakes,

They've never interfered with
a death investigation before?

- Interfered?
- No, no, no, no.

We've done it this way
153 times. No dispute.

Tell me,

Will we be receiving
Xavier lorde's body today?

I don't know, but I will

- I'll keep you posted.
- Okay.

But you know, you wait too
long, he won't be any good to me.

To you?

Must be a power outage
in the neighbourhood.

Is it just me, or is this
place janky as hell?

- It's not you.
- Pretty understaffed.

- For a high-tech operation.
- Yeah.

Catch those light flickers?

Hey...

Heart monitor data just came in.

Xavier's heart started
slowing slightly,

But noticeably around 4:30 a.M..

And does it look
like natural death?

No, it's inconclusive.

Hopefully the autopsy
will tell us more.

I'll let you know what I find.

Wonder if they're
actively recruiting people.

To keep the lights on?

- Yeah. Recruiting them?
- Or killing them?

Er went into cardiac distress,

Why not call an ambulance?
Why call cryosleep?

It's what he wanted.

I know it's what
cryosleep wanted.

I took a look at their
financials - a lot of red.

They need your $265,000.

Did you also know that their
membership relies heavily.

On high profile names?

Names like yours
and your husband's?

So? Ask.

All right,

Was Xavier alive or dead.

When Cedric arrived
to perfuse him?

You think I'm some stupid
old lady who can't let go?

So desperate to hold
on to her husband.

That she'll let
cryosleep kill him.

And take my money?

Did they?

We were going to be young again.

The way we live now is barbaric.

Aging is a crime.

To let a brilliant mind
like his just be stolen,

It's absurd.

I'll admit,

The future where no
one gets sick or dies,

Sounds pretty nice.

But it also doesn't sound real.

I've been to this
cryosleep place,

And I'll tell ya,
it felt like a trick,

Like I was on the set
of a cheap magic show.

I don't care about
the window dressing.

I believe in the science.

Imagination can
change the world.

Maybe you're not
using yours enough.

Look, will you let me
show you something?

Humour me.

So, this chat-box thing,
you developed this.

To help people who've
lost the ability to speak.

That's a part of it.

The main project
is brain emulation.

Imagine you could scan a brain,

Then construct a
software model of it.

That was our goal,

To replicate xavier's
consciousness and upload it.

He believed that one
day we'd exist entirely.

In a virtual world. We
were making progress,

But it's still at a
speculative stage.

Okay, so um,

What does that, what
does that mean, exactly?

- The software?
- Yeah.

Or ai, hasn't yet achieved um,

Actual awareness.

The device still needs
verbal cues to interact with.

We have hundreds of
back-ups of conversations.

Okay.

But... Were any of
these conversations.

With lilium and Xavier?

I have them here, if
you wanna take a listen.

- Yeah, that, that would...
- That would be great.

Tell me what you need, daddy.

Lily-bear, you always
know what's best for me.

Okay. I'm coming there.

I'll be on the first
flight tomorrow.

Daddy, do you wanna be frozen?

Lily-bear, you make
me want to be alive.

Okay, then we
have to stop Olivia.

Yes, lily-bear, yes.

Um, do you mind if I
play this for my partner?

- He's gonna wanna hear that.
- Yeah, of course.

- Yeah, okay.
- I'll be right back.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

These are concepts
I created for a film

I never made.

The storyboards are
almost 40 years old.

3d printing of organs,
synthetic limbs.

That sense touch,

Facial recognition software.

These things only existed
in my dreams at that time.

Now, they're real and
we use them every day.

That's what immortality
means to me;

A dream made real by science.

I know they're going to
autopsy my husband's body.

But his brain can still
be saved by cryonics.

They did a good job.

Yeah. It only took
six hours too, so.

Well, I'll take
them out for you.

I'll take them out
when they're ready,

So you, save you some time.

Wait, wait, wait, let me
show you something.

Here, take a look.

What is this?

This is a small,
beautiful piece of land.

And I just bought it.

Yeah. I think we
can start over, just...

Try to build something together.

You know?

Yeah.

It's just...

You know, what if we...

What if we try this
again and we just end up.

- In the exact same place?
- No, no, jenny, listen. Listen.

Something happened
to me yesterday,

Now everything is clear.

The only thing that I want is...

We're, we're ready for you.

Okay, I can wait.

Okay.

Feel that? The pulmonic valve?

Yeah, could be a blockage.

It's hard to tell without
having any history of the heart.

And without a tox screen,

I can't confirm any kind of
injection or drug overdose.

Yeah, a lethal arrhythmia.

Would've shown up on
the heart monitor data.

Unless they unplugged it
before they gave him the shot.

The widow really
wants to freeze the brain.

I know, but she
may have killed him,

So we need to know how he died.

Can we confirm the cause
of death with what we've got?

Not that I can see.

Okay. All right, well,
yeah, just gotta do it.

Whoa! Hey, hey,
stop, stop, stop.

His brain. Stop!

My god, his brain is
completely liquified.

I don't understand, I mean this,

This level of decomposition
would mean that he had.

To have been brain-dead
for at least 48 hours.

At least.

But both his wife
and his daughter said.

That they had communication
with him yesterday.

- That's not possible.
- No, it's not,

Not unless they were
talking to the dead.

Hello?

Anybody there?

Xavier was locked in.

This device it works on
the eye tracking tech, right?

Yeah.

Without Xavier, I don't think
we're gonna get anything.

Hi, daddy.

Lilium, my sweet lily-bear.

So happy to hear your voice.

All right, teja, I
wanna be very clear,

Are you saying it's probable
that when Olivia and lilium.

Were talking to
Xavier yesterday,

They were actually
talking to that?

Things have always been
toxic between lilium and Olivia.

Communicating with them
was draining for Xavier.

He was always
caught in the middle.

So, you made some adjustments.

I reprogrammed the box.

I wrote in an algorithm to
mimic xavier's conversation,

To use his words
and his expressions.

So, the algorithm was
created to de-escalate conflict.

Between them?

Tell Olivia and lilium
what they wanted to hear?

So that he wouldn't have to.

So that he could rest.

The algorithm is
triggered by verbal cues.

Specific to lilium and Olivia.

Dad, daddy, darling,

My love, and so on.

So, yes, when they thought
they were talking to Xavier,

It was the box talking.

100%.

That's impossible.
I don't believe you.

It's the truth.

The autopsy revealed that
Xavier lost brain function.

Days ago.

So, when.

I wasn't talking to daddy?

Lily-bear, you're upset.

What can I do to help?

I'm sorry, no.

Okay.

After everything I did.

What did you do?

I overheard them talking.

I couldn't understand why

Xavier would say different
things to lilium and me.

I thought he was just...

Trying to spare her feelings.

Knowing lilium was on her way I.

I called dr. Ned.

He said the window.

To get Xavier into
cryo-preservation was slim.

So.

I told him to come.

He gave Xavier
a muscle relaxant,

To put him at ease.

And I...

I

I took him off the ventilator.

And I.

I shut off his machines.

Olivia, for what it's worth,

I hope I'm wrong
about the future.

No. Where are you going?

You have to arrest me.

I just told you I
murdered my husband.

You didn't murder him.

He was already dead.

Olivia?

I am sorry.

I'm sorry.

I lost him.

I was glad you dm'd me.

I wasn't sure where we left it.

I was worried about you,

You know, after the party.

I'm okay.

I pretty much just
needed a wingman.

With wheels and nothing to do.

That's basically
what it says on my id.

Perfect!

Is your boyfriend
cool with us chilling?

Yeah, yeah, super cool.

- Super cool with the chilling.
- Okay.

So, we're here. What now?

I guess I have to go in there.

You can always just buy flowers.

- You can do it.
- Yeah. Right.

I just need a minute.

Take your time.

I got nowhere else to be.

Thank you.

Excuse me, sorry,
you can't be in here.

Dr. Benedict Yeats, I'm
arresting you on suspicion.

Of criminal
harassment, malpractice,

And anything
else I can think of.

- On the drive over to lockup.
- No, no, don't...

Please, you need to
let me finish this intake.

This patient's life
is in my hands!

Jenny...

No, no, no, you
mustn't go in there.

Get him outta here.

No, you don't
understand this work!

I'll be right there!

Hi there.

- Hi.
- Can I help you?

Um, yeah. Yes.

I would like some flowers
please, for my boyfriend.

Well, what's he like?

I don't know, he's um,
he's kind of metropolitan,

He's... Very sweet.

Um...

He sounds like a keeper.

How long you been together?

I'm sorry, that question
is really none of

I'm just nosy.

No, no, don't worry.

Why don't we um,
make him something.

That he'll really
love? I'll just...

Sorry. Are you Margaret?

I am.

Most people call me Peggy.

I'm Ross.

- Hello, Ross.
- Hi.

I have been wanting to
meet you for such a long time.

Hey...

What did you mean when you said.

You hope you're
wrong about the future?

You know, Olivia just showed me.

Some things that,
that got me thinking.

Don't tell me you
wanna get frozen now?

I have cancer.

Or, I had cancer.

I got treatment,

And it caused a
hole in my spine, so,

Now I need surgery,

And there's a chance I
could lose the use of my legs.

My god, Donovan!

I don't know what to do.

It started with this
shooting pain up my leg.

Next thing I know,
hearing the words.

A "solitary spinal
plasmacytoma."

And the radiation caused
damage to your spine.

Yeah. You know,
they say it's operable,

But high risk.

Well, dr. Lamb is
a great orthopedist.

You couldn't be in
better hands there.

Look, I.

I know this doesn't
make it any less scary but,

But this is a, this is a
really good place to start.

So, he showed up this morning.

Yep.

But you hadn't been home
yet from the night before?

No.

It's not funny.

- I'm sorry.
- It's not

I mean, like, what
am I gonna do?

Well, how serious
is it with Clark?

I mean it's, you
know, it's not serious,

It's just... Different.

Different is good.

There's nothing
wrong with different.

- What about you?
- What about me?

How's it going with...

- Kirima?
- Yeah.

Yeah, she's really cool.

I don't know what else to
say, she's just... Very cool.

- Great. Awesome.
- I love that for you.

Sounds like we're having
the exact same experience.

In our love lives.

- I mean, why choose?
- Or maybe I choose both?

Ooh! I get both!

Yeah, I know, I know.

I was just imagining I was
someone else for a minute.

Wouldn't that be nice,

Be someone else for a minute.

Okay, all right. Let's
take a look at that spine.

- So this is official now.
- I am a doctor.

- That shouldn't hurt.
- Yeah.

I mean, the radiation
reduced your tumour.

I think the pain
you're feeling is.

It's from the damage
to your spine.

Look...

As your friend, you know,

I want you to do whatever
is right for you, um...

Yeah.

But as a doctor,
I don't, I don't.

I don't see a way around this.

You know, I think...

If you don't get the
operation, your spine...

Will collapse.

So, I mean, I would say.

I'd say to book your surgery.

Yeah. You're right.

I'm gonna book it.

I think, I think
I've always known,

But, you know, I just...

Yeah, maybe, I was just
hoping for a miracle. Just

I know.

- Hey, Ross!
- Hey!

- You good?
- Yeah. You okay?

Yeah.

- Thank you.
- Bye.

- Hi.
- Hi.

These are beautiful.

- They from you?
- No.

They're from my grandmother.

They're from muna.

No, my other grandmother.

- What?
- I met your mom.

Get those in some water!
