I know what happened to Bancroft.

This pardon is extensively thorough.

-I'm autonetic, not deaf.

You discovered the truth,
whatever that may be,

after enlisting all of us
in an elaborate ruse that required,

among other things,
that I kill a fellow AI.

Whom you hated and was trying
to make Lizzie into a sex slave.

I like to think
that would have ended poorly for him,

or anyone else
who would harm Ms. Elizabeth again.

Kristin, pick up.

I think your relationship with honesty
is passing at best.

-Elliot, pick up.

I believe the Elliots went for dinner.
I recommended a place nearby.

There's still tension
between the two of them.

Kristin, call me back.

Why isn't she answering?

Perhaps because
the last time you saw her,

you told her you cared for another woman. It's purely conjecture, of course.

Killing your sister. A bunch.

What kind of sick person
uses the sleeve of a kid?

I don't know what the hell
you were thinking.

-She's got backups. Fail-safes.

She's gonna be putting herself
back together.

You make her sound superhuman.

I thought by aiding Mr. Kovacs...
I would help us all feel safe.

Instead, I'm finding
violence seems to beget violence.

It's called fighting back.

I believed I was helping you.

I worry if I've shown you the right path.

It was the only path.

I go out on the Array sometimes by myself.

Just look and listen and find things out.

You spy on people? I collate data.

It makes a web inside my head.

Spiders can spin webs
that cover whole trees.

But they have a signal line,
a single thread they touch,

and they know what's happening
anywhere in their web.

They can even feel vibrations
if something is about to hit the silk

before it even happens.

Lizzie, I don't understand.

You will.

I have to practice. It's almost time.

She's gonna be coming back for you.

You didn't think to mention that
before you sent me to kill her clones?

Before I what?

Yeah. Outside of Psychasec.
I know what you really meant.

What are you talking about?

Maybe you didn't say it explicitly, but it
was clearly what you wanted me to do.

I was trying to protect you.

I know.

I also know what else you meant, too.

No, I didn't--

Oh, come on, Kovacs.
You always mean something else.

Do you want to give me a straight answer
for a change?

Do you love me?

-It's not a complicated question.
-Everything about this is complicated.

Yes or no. Is that simple enough?

Why're you playing games?

Maybe I like games.

What did you do with her?

I told you, I killed all of her clones.

-Ow! Ow!

-Ow, you're hurting me.

That took you way too long, Tak.

What gave it away?

What did you do with her, Rei?

I can see what you like about this sleeve.

It's...

-nice.

Relax. When you've lived long enough,
you'll get it.

There are no rules. We do what we want.

Is she still alive?

People still argue,

"Is DHF the human soul?"

Well, if it is, I've got hers.

Is she alive?

Yes, fine. She's alive.

Although she shouldn't be,
after what she pulled.

I'm sorry, Tak.

I should have trusted you.

This was fun, wasn't it?

At least now I know I don't need to deal
with both of you. Just her.

-Take the money Bancroft paid me.
-That's not the kind of coin I require.

Blood was taken from me. Blood is owed.

Whose blood?

Leung. Now he believes in souls.

Collects them.

He's a bit of a zealot.
But he understands respect.

Whose blood?

Careful.
Remember whose sleeve you're bruising.

You tell him to back off.

I won't let anything
come between us again.

Ortega messed with my family,
so I'm going to take hers.

No.

Let go of all these fireflies, Tak.
If you don't, I'll do it for you.

I'll burn every one of them down,

if that's what it takes
to bring you back to me.

Xalbador Ortega?

Yes. What is it?

Are you a believer?

Uh, I am, friend.
Are you here from the church?

Father Huerta said
someone might be coming by.

May I come in?

Come to the kitchen!
I made cookies!

Are you a believer?

Hail Mary, full of Grace,
the Lord is with thee...

Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is...

Pray for us now...

There they are. Let's move!

You called sooner than I expected.
It's only been a day.

Should I know who that is?

Hell of a loose end
when the police lost Mary Lou's body.

Then it shows up without a stack.

If you don't want her...

She worked for you.
But she was never Neo-C.

That's all you figured out?
I'm a little disappointed.

You found a way to fake religious coding. Okay, less disappointed.

You recruited street whores.
Secretly recoded them, served them up.

And if they die... they stay silent.

Now I might even be impressed.

So how many lives have you taken?
How much blood's on your hands?

Girls like Mary Lou are only a small part
of the services I provide.

I built an empire
that spans the Settled Worlds

and I did it for us.

You keep your empire. I'm leaving.

I'm going on a little island vacation
and then I'm casting off this rock. I'm...

I'm done.

When we played, I'd always win.

Pretending not to care won't work on me.

What about Ortega? I gave her to Leung.

Not quite sure what he's doing with her,
probably something in virtual.

I don't care about her.
I don't care about you.

I don't care about anyone.

Please.

You left me once.

I didn't have any photos of her. Of us.

Remember what Mom used to say?

"I love you so much, I could eat you up."

When you were arrested,
they put me in an orphanage.

All I had left of you
was one of your old shirts.

When the yakuza came,
they said I couldn't take anything.

I fought them.

They ripped that shirt out of my hands.

I can still feel it tearing,
the threads still in my fingers,

and I knew they were gonna take those too.

So I swallowed them.

Just to have something, anything,
left of you.

It's in the past.

Doesn't matter.

You're the only person
who knows me as I was.

The sister I remember... she was kind.

I can't save you.

I can't save anyone. I'm done trying.

Abandon all the rest of them,
turn your back. That's fine.

They deserve it. But not me.

You'll come back.

Follow him.

Hello, Takeshi-san.

There he goes.

There I go.

I'll burn every one of them down,

if that's what it takes
to bring you back to me.

-Shit.

Poe, give me the address
of that restaurant.

I barely understand
what Lizzie's turning into.

But I can't stop thinking
about those men.

What they... What they did to her...

Men like Bancroft...

It makes me...
It makes me wanna kill someone.

I can't ever expect your forgiveness.
Or hers.

We both left her.

Vernon, what happened?

Someone broke her mind.

I'm not sure who, but...

-We are getting her back.

Ava, she's coming back.

And we're gonna be together again,
in the real.

We gotta go. Now.

I thought you were dead.

You should keep your fucking ONIs on.

-We were having a private conversation.
Why would we be dead?

Look, Ortega went after my sister.

Reileen's got her
and I thought she'd come after you.

Oh.

I'm guessing you heard.
It's all over the precinct.

Everybody's running scared.
I'm running scared.

I'm feeling singularly uncharitable
toward strangers at the moment.

I recommend you vacate the premises.

Immediately.

Let's hear what he's got to say.

I told Ortega to get out of my office.
I told her I wouldn't help her anymore.

And now I don't know where she is.
I don't even know if she's alive.

Her whole family.

No one's gonna do anything.
Tanaka's not gonna do anything.

I finished the trace program.

Tanaka doesn't know,
but I tracked the Ghostwalker.

-I know where he is.

His name is Leung. He works for Reileen.
He's got Ortega.

We got the target. What's the run?

I'll need a tac-op workstation
installed in my room.

Wait. Where are you going?

-You need to get the fuck outta here.

I just got here.

I mean out of Bay City.
You need to pack up and leave.

Leave

Put her around your neck.
Take her with you.

And go where?

Far away from here as possible.
You get them new IDs. I'm buying.

Wait a second.

-I need to get my birth sleeve back.
-I have responsibilities.

I'm going after my sister.
I can't be worrying about you.

And I need your identity code tag.

Here. Why did you say you needed it?

I'm gonna break into the evidence lockup

-and steal some shit.
-No.

That's a security violation.
I'll lose my job.

Kovacs, wait.

When I get back, you better be gone.

Wake up.

Let me out.

Let me out, bitch!

You wanted to take my brother
away from me.

I killed the last woman who did that.

You're going to spend some time
with Mr. Leung in VR.

Pay for your sins.

And I want you to know
I told Tak I have you.

And he doesn't care.

Let me out! Let me out! Let me ou--

Sir, I believe the Elliots
would like to speak with you.

I told you. Get them new IDs
and get them out of here.

-Just fucking do it.
-And, of course, let no one in your room.

Yeah.

What the fuck?

You didn't answer.

I did not let Mr. Elliot in.

Oh, let me guess. We're not friends.
You don't care about me.

Something like that?

All this is because of me.
That's why I gotta fix it alone.

Here we go again.

Whoa. Is that... Did you grow a...

Just get the fuck out of here.

Microwire cam.

Schematics for Head in the Clouds.

The whole ship is comm-jammed,
conventional tech.

But these rooms here...

That's a military-level dark field

and it opens like clockwork
every 24 hours,

just long enough
for a DHF backup to cast out.

I bet that's Reileen's quarters.

Why do you care? I don't care about you.

That's what we Envoys do.

We make neat little rows of friends
wherever we go,

and then line up behind the cannon fodder
and watch you die.

We're friends?

Not really enough of us for cannon fodder.

Do you really think you can solo

a full DHF copy and download
without defrag?

This microwire camera needs
to be installed surgically in your eye.

You got a lot to lose. I don't.
Why don't you listen?

You gave me my daughter back.
And my wife.

You helped my daughter and my husband
when no one else would.

I want Ortega back.
If this bitch has her, she's going down.

This fight is not just yours anymore.

Doing a double sleeve
requires a DHF copy transfer.

Conscious mind-cloning.
It's... gonna hurt.

This is weird.

It's about to get weirder.

I don't know how that's possible.

We got a decision to make.

You trying to get drunk?

I don't see the point
in going through this sober.

Just like to believe
I'd beat you fair and square.

Fair is for dead men and losers.

I know what you're thinking.

All the shit that you've done,
you should get to go on the suicide run,

and I go on vacation on orgy island.

You can throw the game.

You can't throw the game.
That's the point of the game.

Don't try to guilt me.

I'm you. I see what you're doing.

-Trying to throw the game.

Two out of three?

Three out of five.

There he goes.

There I go.

So, you won and he gets to go
to the tropical sex paradise?

I won the right to decide.

And technically,
he hasn't had sex yet, so...

seemed fair.

Do you remember me?

You're Tak. You came to find me before.

Thanks for bringing me here
and getting rid of the rats.

I'm glad I could help.

I'm going away for a while
and I wanted to come and say goodbye.

You can say it later,
when one of us is dead.

Can't remember if it's you or me.

No one's gonna die, Lizzie.

They said Cassandra of Troy was insane,
but she just remembered things backwards.

She fell asleep in the temple
and snakes went into her ears.

That worm. Have you seen it before?

They used them to drive me mad,

to make me quiet, to close my mouth.

But I'm not quiet now.

Where
The Wei Clinic?

I'm going to miss this throw.

Lizzie, I need you to tell me.

See?

I'm going down
the wrong side of the street.

I won't talk about this anymore.
You have to go.

Goodbye.

Or is it hello?

It's hard to keep them straight.

I'll see you soon.

I know.

You've done this before, right?

Would it make you feel better
if I lied and said yes?

Wanna tell me what you wanna do
with a microwire camera?

Gonna make her confess.
She's gotta pay for what she's done.

Hmm. And that's gonna help how?

She'll lose her backups, the money, power.

Wake up in a century or two,
maybe be a human again.

It's the only shot I have at saving her.

What if that doesn't work?

Reileen's next backup is in exactly
3 hours, 47 minutes and 12 seconds.

This antenna is slaved to the frequency.
But it has to be within one meter of her

-when her backup starts.
-So I gotta get close.

Window of opportunity is seconds.
Hell of a needle you're trying to thread.

What about heat sensors?

All guests are given a thermal tag.

Any untagged body temperature
is gonna set off the alarms.

I can spoof you an all-access tag,

but only if I can get into the system
from onboard.

-No problem. I got that.
-Head in the Clouds only serves Meths.

Mickey and I constructed Mr. Elliot's
upgraded military identity as a general,

and we purchased
the most expensive package,

the Iridium Experience.

However, it requires
that you have completed

several introductory sessions.

-Doesn't matter. You're not gonna do it.

Damn straight he's not.

So, we smuggle you onboard,
I avoid some freaky Meth sex thing,

and get Mickey into the tag system,
then get out. Got it.

I'll piggyback on their grids,
hack their signal for our comms

until you get into Reileen's stateroom.

Once you go through those doors,
we lose contact with you.

-Your ONI won't stream, nothing.
-Except for the microwire cam.

Yes. It's self-contained,
no uplink, couple hours of storage.

But you'll have to get the cam
off the ship

for us to retrieve the recording.

Any good news?

Okay.

-Five by five.

Ava, do you read me?
-Yeah, I can hear you fine.

You're supposed to say "five by five."

Oh, no. I just ruined the mission.

Hon, turn left to bearing 223
and descend towards docking bay three.

Reileen's backup
is T-minus 17 minutes and counting.

Copy that.

Welcome, General, to Head in the Clouds.

I'm certain the general will find
everything to his satisfaction.

This floor is entirely yours.

Doorway, end of the hall.

Leads to an access panel
to get Mickey into the system.

That's how we'll get Kovacs
past the heat sensors.

We offer your fantasies...

but you... make them real.

So, General,
are you ready to fire your gun?

Vernon, dose her and go.

How old are you?

Don't worry. I'm not some
old hag resleeved into this.

This is my flesh. All 19 years of me.

But if you don't wanna take me first...

I guess we can get right to it.

Get right to what?

Iridium Experience. I'm all yours.

Vernon?

Fuck.

Is that what you want

Then you can...

You could cut holes in me anywhere.

Fuck me in them.

Tear me apart, General.

Rip me open with that big dick.

Huh?

Do you want me to scream

Beg?

Please. Please, don't. Please.

Please. Please, don't.
Please. Please. Please. Please.

Head in the Clouds runs girls
as snuff whores?

Kovacs, did you know?

Reileen told me she provides a lot
of services. I didn't ask for details.

-This is not what I want.
No. What?

This is not what I want.

Uh, what? I'm not coded or anything.
Really.

-No. No.
-It's... It's okay.

-No. It's not okay.
-They're gonna resleeve me.

Really, it's okay. No, it's not okay.

I'm not supposed to talk about it.
They said it'll ruin the fantasy.

Did I ruin the fantasy?

Oh, God. Oh, no.

Oh...

How many times have you done this?

It's my first.

Do you know of any other girls
that come back?

Well, turnover's pretty high and...

we don't, you know, socialize.

But you have to kill me.

If you don't, they're gonna fire me.
Please.

Please.

You want a drink? I need a drink.

-Yeah.
-Yeah.

That's why you have to qualify.

They must put the johns
through virtual first,

because the ones that come sniffing back
will pay anything for the real thing.

Killing a girl who doesn't know
that she'll never come back.

Oh.

Oh.

Take it easy.

Thanks.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Okay. It's okay.

It's okay.

Honey, we are gonna shut
this whole place down. Okay?

You're never gonna have to do
anything like this again. I promise.

Clock's ticking.

10:27 to backup and counting.

Vernon, we need to hurry.

I'm on my way.

Access panel's across
the corridor to your right.

Okay, I'm in.

Swipe the sub-menu docking bay three,
go into the tag file.

Docking bay. Tag file.

Real death'd every person in the building.

Slagged the fucking receptionist.

I was just lucky I was late for my shift.

What's that?

-Okay. So, a little issue here.
-Shit.

Come on, let's go.
-Fuck.

Shit. It's not letting me in.

-Worst backup ever.
-Hold on, man. I got this.

You must exit the car immediately.

He'll set off the heat sensors.
Vernon, you tap into

the security subset
of docking bay three's power loop?

Working on it.
We do not have time for this.

I think I said
I was working on it.

Kovacs, you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.
-Please tell me you saved the antenna.

Yeah.

Why are the alarms not going off?

It's Reaper on the blade.
Lowered my body temp to fool the sensors.

Did he just say Reaper?
Is he gonna pass out?

Mr. Kovacs has a singular force of will.

What does that mean?

He's a suicidal idiot who never gives up.

Sir? Are you--

Oh, I was looking for you.
I had a fantastic time. Outstanding.

I hope the general's experience
was as satisfactory as it was quick?

Oh, I see you took a souvenir
to remember the occasion.

Maybe we could find you
another young lady?

Or a man?

Or perhaps a child?

Oh, my God.

I think it's time I was going.

Three minutes, 23 seconds to backup.

Wait, where are you going?

Take the starboard service corridor.
There are no guards there.

This way is faster.

Gotta risk it. Not enough time.

One minute, 38 seconds to backup.

Kovacs, can you hear me?
Kovacs, can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Kovacs, can you hear me?

Fifty-seven seconds to backup.

Kovacs, are you there?

God damn it. What's wrong?

Sir, please.

Your pleasure is my only concern.

All you need is to tell me
what you want to do.

That.

Mickey, I need a fix on him.

Tell me where he is.

Kovacs, what's wrong?

Thirty-two seconds to backup.

I'm okay. I'm okay.
Just the fucking Reaper.

Ten seconds to backup.

I got it! I got it!

Three...

two...

Make me proud, baby. Go to work.

One.

Shit. Fuck, we're down!

It's some kind of counter-intrusion surge.
We're shut out of the system completely.

-We're blind.

Did you have enough time to get in?

-Fuck, yeah.

That's made for killing livestock.
Not a lot of range.

I can make it work.

It was all a trick. Not caring.
And I bought it.

And who is that with Miriam?

You double-sleeved.

And you lied to me. To me, Tak.

The only person
who's ever truly loved you.

And you did it for her?

-Jesus.
-Wait.

Leung's in there with her.

If we pull her out,
he'll know something's wrong.

Nice try.

It was so much better
when we were on the same side.

No outsiders getting in your head.

Which one's this again?

Let me shoot her. Please.

Oh, it's Elliot.

Honestly,
all grounders look alike to me.

Must be the film of dirt.

You may wanna reconsider insulting the guy
with a bolt gun pointed at your head.

Aren't you forgetting something?

Kill me here and I'll be resleeved
from my last backup, which just happened.

So it doesn't matter what you do.

I'll come back
and I'll remember you were here.

If you'd really walked away,
they would have all lived.

But now, I'm coming
for your pathetic little pack

and they're all going into virtual
for years.

Shut up.

Gonna watch Ortega
eat her own fucking eyeballs!

I said shut up.

I had Ava spike your backup with Rawling.

No.

You don't have access to stackpox.

I stole the Envoy stacks,
Ava stitched the virus.

Your backups are gone.

Jimmy de Soto says hello.

Tak, you wouldn't.

You got one life left
and you're wearing it.

Why are you doing this?

'Cause I saw my sister for a moment.

And I'm gonna get her back.

You never lost me, Tak.

A full confession.

Bancroft, 653, Mary Lou Henchy, all of it.

No one will believe you.

Microwire cam.

Tell me everything. It's your only chance.

Chance to what?

Become a human again.

Tak.

You wouldn't let them put me on ice, Tak.

Please.

No more alarms, no more bullshit,
no more games.

One more mistake
you're determined to make.

Remember, when it's time to pay,
I tried to stop you.

Start with the night Bancroft got torched.

I knew he liked to choke girls out.

I knew he was coming back
from Osaka angry.

That night, I needed him to go further.

Why?

So I could blackmail him
into stopping 653.

You had him drugged with Stallion.
How did you do that?

Transdermal.

Through a kiss.

Miriam.

She owed me.

She knew once he was dosed,
he'd kill the next thing he fucked.

She also knew it wouldn't be her.

And Mary Lou Henchy?

She jumped.

Yeah, but why?

Because she didn't wanna die
at Bancroft's hand.

I'd invited him to Head in the Clouds.

Made sure he was dosed, and it worked.

He went further, all right.

He real death'd the first girl,
smashed her stack.

Even I didn't know
there was that much fury in him.

So, Mary Lou ran.

Don't worry about him.

Worry about me!

She did the one thing
she thought could checkmate us both.

She thought her body would die,
but her stack would be found,

that they'd spin her back up,
she'd tell the police what happened.

What she didn't know is I recoded her
the moment I hired her.

Brings us to Ryker.

He wouldn't back off.

He was a piece that
needed to be taken off the board.

So when Mary Lou washed up,
coded and dead,

he guessed what happened.

I was lucky he was so unstable.
He wasn't hard to frame.

But 653 was moving forward and...

I'd be ruined. Erased.

So you used Bancroft for his influences
at the UN court.

It took planning, being ready to leap
at the perfect moment,

force him to do what I wanted. Once he'd slaughtered
two Neo-C-coded whores,

he had as much to lose as I did.

He did what I told him, derailed 653.

But what happened next,
I couldn't predict.

He has an archaic streak.

You'd call it honor.

The fool wanted to forget.

As if that would make him clean
of what he'd done.

He slagged his own stack.

His arrogance wouldn't let him believe
he killed himself.

He insisted he was murdered,
wouldn't let it go.

Which brings us to you.

You needed somebody
that Bancroft could trust. An Envoy.

I didn't need someone.

I needed you.

You're right about the blood on my hands.
I drenched myself.

To build a future for us.

I waited.

I waited for you, Tak.

I waited for the perfect moment
to get you out so we could start again.

I missed you so much.

Never thought I'd be whole again.
