What is this?

I found this at Mia's when I was there.

She has some
very paranoid theories about you.

She thinks you abducted her

and did some experiments on her
in some secret lab in a basement.

She wants to expose you.

And?

It's not the first time
she's tried to ruin a career.

I mean,
she destroyed Lorenz completely, right?

I don't think you should discount her.

She thinks you're running
an illegal lab right here on your estate.

TO: ANDREAS WINTER
COME TO LAB NOW

She wants to get inside of it.

She said something about
a red book that she wants from you?

A red notebook?

Who knows what she could do.

I don't care about what you're researching
or whether it's legal or not.

I know better than anyone.
There's way too much regulation.

And you're already aware of
how thankful I am

that you got me back here

and out of the affair with Lorenz
unpunished

that I can continue my work.

All because of you.

Loyalty, that's... that's all I care about.

How's your research going?

So far, so good.

I made some
interesting connections in Indonesia.

I'm glad.

I'm pretty tired. Should we go to bed?

I have a presentation to finish.

- Okay, then.
- Thanks.

Ugh. This place is so gross.

I'd hire a maid, but all the others
think it feels too snobby.

I mean, what's snobby
about giving someone a well-paid job

so everybody's
not living in a mess like this, you know?

I think it's a win-win.

What's your presentation on?

Mm, it's about the end-in-itself formula.

Mm. Always treat humanity,

whether in your person
or in the person of any other,

never as a means to an end
but always at the same time as an end.

Yeah, and in theory, it sounds great,
but it's quite problematic.

- Can I print something?
- Sure.

Why is it problematic?

Well, what about situations where you
have to use people as a means to an end?

What if you could save 100 lives,
and in exchange, one person is sacrificed?

Kant would say it would still be wrong
to kill someone no matter what.

And he's right about that.

I mean, even if you'd be helping others,
it doesn't make it right to kill someone.

Yeah, but isn't it still worse

to let so many others die
if someone could've prevented it?

But how do you know that the 100 lives
would be worth more than the ones'?

And what if this person would go on

to invent some cure for some cancer,
for example,

and he saves millions
just because someone let him live?

Don't you think that one life there
could be worth more than the 100?

Yeah, but that's entirely hypothetical.

Yeah, but you need
to stick to principles, you know?

Otherwise, you can always find a counter
to everything and lose your moral compass.

The printer isn't down again, is it?

Oh, it's just a paper jam.

One second.

Try printing now.

What is this?

No clue. It's not mine.

This is our estate.

MESSAGE RECEIVED
MIA - HE'S INSIDE

CALLING

Hello?

I'm coming.

Help me!

"Oblivion. Erases the last 24 hours
of short-term memory."

So, going through Mia's stuff like this

doesn't go against
your moral conscience, then?

It does. It's not like me at all.

But who else here would print out
a satellite view of my family's house?

There's no reason for it.

I know it's Mia with how paranoid
she's been acting around us.

Or maybe Ole is planning some drone flight
for his Instagram account.

Or it's just one of those jokes of his.

Mm-hmm.

So what is this, then?

Sorry, but this is weird. Really weird.

SPONSOR OF A NEW RESEARCH PROJECT

NEW PRESIDENT DR. BARON VON FÜRSTENBERG

May I?

LOTTA
MOBILE

Interesting ring tone you have.

Yeah.

Sorry again about the mix-up.

Hey, it happens. So...

Hey, so while I've got you here,

can I talk to you for a quick second
about my research?

It's just one thing.
It won't take long. It's important.

What is it?

LAB PC386
WINTER - PASSWORD

Tell them
they don't have to worry.

Friday, September 20th.

Just a little poke.

The new test subject
has been given 20 mg of Oblivion.

It appears
that everything has worked this time,

and once injected with Oblivion,

the test subject has forgotten everything
that it had learned the previous day.

I'm optimistic that soon
we can begin doing some large-scale tests.

Calm down, calm down.

Come here, come here.

The test subject here
died 30 minutes later,

and apparently, the same nanoparticles
Oblivion sends to the brain

went into his lungs.

I suspect that his lipophilic coating
caused the lungs to clog up.

Neurologically, though,
the medication works.

The memories have been erased,

but the subject then starts to suffocate
and eventually will die.

And then, of course,
you could, um, find ways

to make the supply chain for the Bioblocks
efficient over time.

That might mean
getting, um, other labs to come on board.

Can we just talk about this later?

Yeah. There's just
this one Indonesian start-up

that's been doing
a whole bunch of cool things.

Send me a link. I'll check them out.

Okay.

Shit.

Hi, this is Mia Akerlund.
Leave a message after the...

Come on.

HURRY UP. WINTER JUST GOT THERE.

Her amazing immune system

helped us
successfully avoid a lethal outcome.

She's received three injections now.

Her breathing and pulse are normal,
and her memories have been all erased.

Just as we hoped,

Mia's immune system has turned out to be

the key to eliminating
the off-target effects of the lung.

Tell them not to worry.

Tell them people at Disease Control

want you to quarantine with your fever
to make sure everything's okay.

That sounds believable, right?

Nobody will miss you for a couple of days.

Come on.

Where are you?

Four, one, seven.

Five, three, four, one, seven.

Three, four, one, seven.

Five, three, four, one, seven.

LAB TESTS

LAB TEST "OBLIVION"

Shit.

Shit. Goddammit.

Shit.

Shit.

FaceTime Lorenz.

Making a FaceTime call
to Professor Lorenz.

Mia, are you in?

Yes, help me do this. I can't see anymore.

And you got the red notebook?
You found it?

- Yeah.
- Okay, where is it?

Open it. Show me what's inside.

No. Listen to me now.

I saw Winter's recordings
from the experiments that they did to me.

He tested some drug
designed to erase memories.

I'm going to...

My neurological functions
are shutting down,

and I can't see the screen.

Well, that explains why
you had all these symptoms.

The amnesia, the flashbacks.

Listen to me! I need your help!

Now tell me what it says on here
so I can try to make an antidote!

I can't read it
with you shaking your phone.

Email it, and I'll look it over later.

There might not be any later! Please!

Help me, or you're never gonna
get your hands on the book!

Then hold still.
I'll get seasick from reading.

Your brilliant ideas
don't appear to be working.

Of course they're working.
That's nonsense. Oblivion works.

The nanoparticle transports Oblivion
through the blood-brain barrier,

and they extract it...

- None of that interest me.
- Mia lived, okay?

We repeatedly gave her high doses.

All the memory tests with her
were successful.

We're ready for the next phase.

- But some memories are coming back.
- Says who? Where is she?

Bring her to me,
then I'll be able to conclude my research.

I promise you.
We'll get it approved this year.

Andreas, right now we have other problems.

Don't disappoint me.

I'll get the documents
from the car.

Oblivion.

We already know that.

Stop there!
Move the camera more to the left.

What?

Wait a minute.

What is it?

I don't want you to panic now, okay, but...

But what?

I'm starting to see why you're having
such severe symptoms like this.

This crap is dissolving my brain, right?

And it'll kill me in two months.
I know all that!

But here, the description makes it...

It seems like neuronal sonication
could reverse the effect.

Mia, you still there?

Mia?

There's someone coming.

Mia, listen, okay? Get me that notebook.

Take pictures of the pages.

Listen to me. You get your book
if you find out how to cure me.

- And only then!
- Yes, but it isn't that simple...

End of discussion!

Here.

Get some tape.

Goddammit, Mia.

Okay.

How nice.
You finally came out of your room.

I'm making dinner soon. Are you hungry?

Mom, I need your help.

Well, this is certainly new.

You know what? Forget it.

The garage door key
is on the board, right?

Always has been.

- He really made a fool of me.
- What's he doing here?

And where's Mia?

Good question.

Open his eyes.

He called Lorenz earlier.

Mia and Lorenz
are working together,

looking for evidence to use against me.

She'd wanna get
some deal with the DA's office.

The book.

Do you have the red book?

No.

You sure you left it in here?

Mia.

What are you doing?

Taking care of Lorenz.

And then Mia.

What about him?

It's not ready yet.
It'll kill him.

You wanted
to continue your research.

Time to earn your funding.

He's still not answering.

Hey, I'm sure everything's fine, Lotta.
He's just busy tonight, all right?

I don't know what's going on.

What's making Mia not talk to me?

Lotta.

Think how weird it was for the two of us,
and we're not going through what she is.

After everything that's happened,
she's not gonna talk to you right away.

She just needs more space right now.

And what makes you so sure
that she has nothing planned?

I mean, you know her.

- Do you still have feelings for her?
- What?

None.

♪ The walls look crooked ♪

♪ When we're scared of them... ♪

♪ If you didn't already... ♪

Hey, Lotta.

What...

what's going on?

Sorry to wake you up.
I found something I'm worried about.

You guys still talk to Mia a lot.

She mention where she printed this out?

♪ It all could change ♪

♪ In just one minute... ♪

Dinner's ready.

I'm not hungry.

♪ In just one minute... ♪

You sure have a lot of books, don't you?

Yes, so many. Too many.

Especially when you just want one.

Which one's that?

Ultrasound for Neurology.

The front is white and blue.

♪ My head is still spinnin' ♪

♪ But that don't feel the same ♪

♪ In just one minute ♪

♪ It all could change ♪

I know all this must sound weird to you,
like it's totally made-up,

and it is so weird.

Really weird.

But we didn't say anything because
Mia was supposed to tell you herself.

And you two believe this bullshit?

Well, Mia had some convincing arguments.

What arguments?

Mia's not right in the head.
You two know that.

Since she went to that party
and took all those drugs,

she's being paranoid.

Then you get in on it,
and it's my family you're spying on?

Mia's remembering things again.

Oh, and we found out
Winter often came to visit your estate.

Mia suspects he has a secret lab
where he did experiments on her,

which is why she's sick.

Have both of you
lost your minds completely?

My father sponsors scientists, guys.

He would never experiment on humans.
Ever! Got it?

I thought you were my friends.

But we are your friends.

Here. I have a gift for you guys.

You should read it so you can make
better moral decisions in the future.

- Lotta.
- And betraying a friend's not one of 'em.

Okay, Lotta.

Can we talk about this calmly together?

And talk to Mia in person?

- I want you to pack your things and go.
- What?

I don't wanna live with you people.

Lotta!

I doubt she really meant all that.

I think she did.

Yeah.

Lotta!

Lotta!

Come on. This isn't their fault.

Are you actually defending them?

They didn't do anything.
Don't beat them up.

And Mia?

Are you saying Mia hasn't done something?

Why are you getting so angry now
if none of this is true?

Who cares what Mia and the others say
and think about your dad

when they barely know him?

- You know it's not the truth.
- Come on, Niklas.

- This is my family here.
- Yeah, I know that.

And loyalty is the most important thing.

If you don't have that, what's the point?

I don't get how you can't understand that.

I understand you.

You know I'll always be here. Always.

Can you stay the night?

Yeah.

See you later.

Is it this one?

Yeah.

Thanks, Mama.

It says you have a text from Jasper.

EMERGENCY! WE HAVE TO MEET!

- I have to go.
- Right now?

Yes, Mia needs my help.

What?

Nothing. Say hi to Mia for me.

I will.

Hey, I'm glad you called me.

So I hate admitting
these kinds of things to you,

but I think I'm getting
used to your little student club here.

Okay, what's up?

What do you know
about Dad's projects?

- What brought this up?
- Anything illegal he's involved in?

Something like...
...like what?

Uh, weapon stealing,
organ selling, cigarette smuggling?

I don't believe
that's really Dad's market.

But, uh...

...between you and me,
he's got some tickets for speeding.

Come on, Uli.
You know what I mean.

I have no clue what you mean.
What do you want?

- Why are you asking me this now?
- Why wouldn't I?

Well, because...
because it doesn't make any sense.

Besides, you're the one
who did illegal stuff.

I mean, after all, it was you who funded
secret Huntington's research last year

and helped a terrorist
get to Indonesia to escape.

- Oh, please. That's completely different.
- How come?

That Huntington's research
is going to help so many others.

It's not the same thing.

I mean, you can't forbid it
if it's going to be doing good.

You're telling me
the ends justify the means?

I didn't do anything wrong.

I just did something
that's not legally allowed, but...

Mm. See?

And that's exactly what Dad would say.

Lotta, you're just like our father,
and you always have been.

I don't understand how you can't see that.

But let me give you
a little advice, Lotta.

Just stop trying to fight it.

We're gonna be like our parents anyhow.

But you always have a choice.

Yeah, then finally make one!
Come on! It's not that hard.

Do the same thing on repeat,

or... or you can take some risks
and do really amazing things. You know?

Or become another person
that follows the straight and narrow path

and still does great things.

Who gives a shit?

Stop with the whole
superior morals bullshit!

That makes me sick!

- You don't know me one bit.
- Lotta, I know you better than you do.

If it's any consolation,

I've been through all of this.

Ultimately, we're a family
with a pretty unique kind of obligation,

like it or not.

Thank you.

Okay, Jasper, this should work now.

Don't!

Mia.

How could you do this to me?

You betrayed me and my father!

Mia, your immune system's extraordinary.
You know that.

It's exactly what I needed
to get Oblivion to work correctly.

That's why the baron
suggested you and I collaborate on it.

What?

That's why I brought you to him,
and you consented to it.

I wouldn't let you
ever mess with my brain!

Wait.

Look.

My name is Emma Mia Akerlund.

And I am participating voluntarily
and of sound mind

in Dr. Andreas Winter's
Oblivion experiments.

My immune system will fight off Oblivion.

But your immune system
doesn't extend into your brain.

So if something happens?

Then we can use
sonication on the blood-brain barrier.

That is, focused ultrasound
to make it permeable.

Then your immune system

will destroy anything
that doesn't belong there.

Trust me.

You really think I'm dumb enough
to record myself breaking the law?

I remember how you kept me trapped here
and everything you did now.

I know because our agreement
was the first thing you forgot.

Somehow Homo Deus wasn't erased.

I had to give you several doses

to find out what you could
and could not remember.

And to be honest,
that is still something I don't get.

But why would I do all that?
I know I'd never agree to this.

Your deal's with Fürstenberg, okay?
Not with me.

Then let us go, okay?

No, I can't do that.

We're finishing Oblivion together
as agreed.

We have a deal.

When you fulfill it, you can go.

And I'll give you another reason.

We're going to start
testing on your boyfriend first.

Are you crazy?

Watch it! Stop struggling!
Calm down, calm down!

Calm down!

I have a feeling
we're not gonna agree here.

Mia.

It's best you just forget all this.

You could really hurt someone with that.

Give me your hand.
