Thank you.

I think we're hearing offline.

She mentioned a sound the moment we landed.

It was louder, closer to the xenomorph she got.

Then last night in the lab when I extracted the embryo. You think it's got

something to do with these creatures?

Not all of them.

Just one species.

Stop frowning. Not awake. We're on a voyage of

discovery and I have a colonic in 30 minutes.

Go push some buttons and turn some knobs while the grown -ups talk.

We've taken her offline.

We think she can hear. The xenomorph? Yeah, just assume I'm ahead of you

which, don't you have little, you know, little experiments to run?

These creatures aren't going to discover themselves.

Of course.

You too.

No.

She's scared. She needs me. Ah, careful.

You're not a mother.

It's an IT issue, not a gap session. And I'm still waiting on your field

assessments of the high -paid performance.

I'll be back.

Alone at last.

Okay.

Let's bring her here on the line.

Figure out if it's a hardware or software issue.

Oh, good. It's the brother. Are you okay?

She can't hear you.

Why? We took her hearing offline.

He did what?

Hi.

We haven't met.

You work for me, or should I say you work for a subsidiary of a subsidiary of

holding company of an LLC of mine. Yeah. How's the new lungs?

It's great.

Thanks. You'll never guess what we did with the old one.

What? I can't hear you.

I can't hear.

There is a sound in the lab.

It hurt my head. I can't hear.

Okay.

What's in the lab?

Tell me you didn't bring those things back here.

We're wasting time.

Okay, bring our audio processors online.

Yeah.

All

right.

Can you hear my voice?

Can you hear my voice?

Can you hear my voice?

Yeah.

Yeah. Can you hear the sound?

Okay. How's this?

Okay.

Okay. Okay.

Okay.

Biscuit. Hi.

Where were you?

I had a surgery, but it's okay. I'm fine.

Wendy. I'm all better.

Wendy. Can you tell me what happened?

I woke up and I heard it.

The sound like... Like

bugs rubbing their legs together.

Crickets?

I followed it.

It was coming from the lab.

Kurt was... Kurt was doing things in there. He was

experimenting.

On the eggs.

It was screaming.

The eggs?

No.

The baby.

The baby was screaming.

We're going to figure out what it is you're hearing and why you're hearing

and we're going to make it stop.

No.

What do you mean, no? She can hear in alien language, and you want to turn

off? If it's hurting you, we should make it stop. I think they picked me.

They're talking to me.

I want to hear them. Deal. Start the test.

Okay.

Start the test at 20 ,000 hertz.

I hear it.

Okay, tell them, oh, what if I raise it?

Same. Must be spread across multiple frequencies.

I'm going to go to the highest range now.

Stop. Stop. Stop.

Down. Down.

There.

Curly, do you hear anything?

Like what? A sound you can identify?

Maybe. Don't tell me what I want to hear. Tell me the truth.

Can you make the sound in a frequency

we can hear?

How?

How did you hack the data to watch your brother?

Asimov said above a certain level, technology is indistinguishable from

Don't think of your book as a voice. Think of it as a speaker.

It just plays music.

The sound is in your mainframe, so you just...

Sure, you speak French, but can you do that?

I know.

Oh, the brother's having a feeling.

She needs to rest.

She has a lithium -ion battery that could power a small city. She doesn't

to rest.

She's not a machine. She's a child, and she's frightened.

I can speak for myself.

She needs a break, sir. It's been a rough night.

Of course.

Take all the time you need.

Wanna go show me your room?

Yeah.

I think when a hostile alien species tries to speak, one needs to ask why.

Yeah, unless it's not her they're talking to, it's each other and she can

them. And now they know that too.

Are you sure you wouldn't like to return them to you, Tani, and get back to the

work at hand?

So I can wake up one day with a xenomorph in my belly? No, thank you.

Tell the brother he can stay, but he's working for us.

The conflict? No.

Just a reminder, it's my world.

He just lives in it.

I've been drawing a lot.

And, um, and this is my bed.

Well, it's more like a charging station, but it's kind of like a bed.

You don't sleep?

Well, I... No,

not really.

Are you mad at me?

Why would I be mad at you?

Because I wanted to hear the aliens. I...

Because you had to go to a cemetery

for me.

No.

Come on.

Not mad at you.

I'm mad at them.

Why?

Because they wouldn't let me see you when you're in the hospital.

Or dad.

So you wanted to come.

Of course, I wanted to come.

You just, you couldn't find a way.

If there was a way, I would have found it.

Right?

There was a war, and I was on the other side of the Earth.

Okay.

I'm here now.

The Neverland had been make -believe in those days, but it was real now.

And there were no night lights.

And it was getting darker every moment.

When is a machine not a machine? When is a machine not a machine?

Of all delectable islands,

The Neverland is the snuggest and most compact.

Not large and sprawly, you know, with tedious distances between one adventure

and another, but nicely crammed.

When you play at it by day with the chairs and tablecloth, it is not in the

least alarming.

But in the two minutes before you go to sleep, it becomes very nearly real.

That is why there are night lights.

We're not friends.

No, I suppose not.

But I want to be.

Friends don't lie.

You said you were prodigy.

Well, I didn't know if you were a villain or a hero.

Hero.

Me too.

And since we're both heroes, I need your help.

Get something and bring it to me, okay?

An egg.

You don't have eggs where you are?

It's not that kind of egg.

Monster egg.

Such a smart boy.

No, I can't, I can't, I can't.

But wait.

How can you steal from a thief?

Another riddle? A moral inquiry.

Do you know the difference between right and wrong?

I think so. Well, if that egg belongs to me and somebody takes it, how can it be

wrong to take it back?

They fixed me here, you know?

Like, boy cavalier, this is my home.

Now you're talking about loyalty.

That's a very different principle.

People do all kinds of terrible things in the name of loyalty.

No.

If you want to do the moral thing, you'll help me get back what you stole.

Think of it as restitution.

What's restitution? It means making things right.

You want to make things right.

Can I talk to someone about it, like me or someone that he always knows the

answers to things?

No. You can't talk to anyone that would hurt me. And what do we know about

hurting people?

Strong? Yes, very good.

Can I trust you?

We need to trust each other if we're going to make this work.

So I'm going to tell you my name.

It's Kumi.

Kumi Morrow.

Kumi?

It's a nice name.

It's Ghanaian.

Remind me of your name again?

Slightly?

No, silly.

Your real name.

Oh.

Not... Not supposed to say.

Well, how can I trust you if you won't tell me your name?

It's Arush.

Arush what?

Sing.

Arush what?

No, like...

Sing with an H.

Sing the end.

Well then, Arush, sing.

Let's figure out how you're going to make things right.

Do you know why there are three monkeys on your wall?

What?

Mizaru sees no evil.

Kikizaru hears no evil.

Iwazaru speaks no evil.

There are figures in Buddhist teaching about avoiding evil thoughts and deeds,

but over the years they've come to represent something else.

Do you know what that is?

If I did something evil, would you report me?

I... If I hurt or caused others

to be hurt, would you do something to stop me, or would you look the other

Careful.

Everything okay?

It's just, um... It's just a test.

That's what being an adult is.

A constant test.

I would stand up for my friends.

Thank you.

Wavy lines are totally different now. Those are gamma waves. Problem -solving

concentrations. See how they've increased?

This creature is highly intelligent.

Look how it's watching us.

If one of those ever escaped. Glass half full, kid.

Yeah?

We talked about this.

understand why we had to leave the lab. What?

Are you serious?

Darling, can you please just explain to me what's going on? What are we doing

here? This isn't science.

We're halfway through beta testing the hybrids and he brings in who knows how

many alien species.

It is a multi -world corporation. I think we can do two things at once.

She's not ready.

Wendy, I mean, or any of them. I mean, this morning proves that the data isn't

there.

We match up the steps.

Control groups.

System checks.

He sends them to a crash site.

Into combat.

Yes. He breaks rules.

He takes risks.

Maybe that's why he's so far ahead.

But that's not science.

I don't care how rich you get. It's something it is or it isn't.

Quantum mechanics.

Okay. That's... Light is a particle and a wave. Yeah, theoretically, yeah. But

we took the minds of children and put them in synthetic bodies. That's not

theoretical.

I mean, if we did this wrong, best case, we've got a bunch of AIs running around

thinking they're human. Worst case, we killed six kids.

That is not something we're flipping about.

Ever.

I hear you. I just... I'm worried, and I...

I need you to hear that.

Not as a scientist, but as your husband.

I do. I do.

Okay, then we need to stick to the protocols.

Re -evaluate the risks.

I think we need to think about what's going to happen if this whole thing goes

to hell.

Listen.

I'll make dinner tonight, okay?

We'll have dumplings.

Sit and talk this through.

We'll figure it out.

Hey, sweetheart.

I have good news.

Such good news.

I'm pregnant.

What?

I'm gonna have a baby.

No, Dad.

That's impossible.

You're a machine.

I'm not a machine.

Why would you say that?

No, of course not, baby.

He didn't mean that.

You're just too young to have a child.

Well, it's true.

I woke up this morning and I just knew.

It's not all those horrible things he was saying about me.

What's inside of me.

Controlling metal and silicone.

It's a baby.

Wow.

That's... big news.

Why don't we go to my office and we can talk?

How have you been feeling?

Pretty tired.

This being pregnant thing is hard work.

We haven't talked in a while.

And now... you have this feeling.

It's not just a feeling.

I'm gonna have a baby.

Well, that's interesting.

But can you tell me... do you know how babies are made?

God brings them.

Yes, on some level.

But there's also a process, a physical process between a man and a

woman, a biological process.

I know about all that.

I grew up on a farm.

Oh, well, then you know.

A man and a woman, their bodies fit together, and the man's

sperm fertilizes the woman's egg.

Then the embryo grows into a baby.

Except for Jesus.

His mommy didn't do that, and he was born.

You know what? I'm starting to realize that we didn't.

In all the busyness of trying to make sure that everything went right with

transition, all of you,

We never really talked about your new bodies, how they work and

how they're different.

You know what's different, right?

Your new body.

It's big.

It is.

But it's not just the size. I'm talking about on the inside.

Let me show you the diagram.

I don't want to look it up.

I said no.

It's a girl, I think.

Clarissa. Nibs. That's her name.

What she wants to be called.

What happened?

I don't know.

I don't want to talk about that.

Carly said you were really brave.

She said I don't want to talk about it.

Those creatures can't hurt you.

You know that, right?

They're all locked up. I said stop! All

right, sweetheart.

I'm sorry.

Do you want to have some tea?

I was thinking about having...

I got those new flavors that you asked for.

The chamomile and mint.

I like apple cinnamon.

Oh, apple cinnamon.

Okay, yeah, I have that too.

If it's a boy, what do you think about Trevor?

Trevor, it's a good name.

It's Tom.

Sweetheart, I didn't realize I was meant to be meeting Mr. Cavalier.

These gentlemen will help you back to your room, okay?

Can I keep him?

Of course.

And listen, we'll talk again soon, okay?

I've missed our talks. Okay.

Get her back to her room.

Secure the door.

Tell your supervisor we have a level three event. He'll know what to do.

Yes, ma 'am.

You wanted to see me?

I thought we might discuss your future with this company.

My unit, sir, specifically Rashidi, Siberian, are they okay?

That information is confidential.

To be completely frank, so is the information about Wendy.

Marcy, my sister's name is Marcy.

So you believe she's your sister?

She has her memories, her sense of humor.

Doesn't it make her Marcy?

Actually, that's something we'd like to know too.

From you.

From me?

We'd like confirmation from someone who knew her well that the transition was a

success.

She thinks she's my sister.

What do you think?

I think this conversation's over.

It's a condition of your employment that you answer all questions put to you by

a superior.

Well, then, I quit.

Of course.

As this is a private island, we'll have to get you on the first shuttle back

home.

Confidentiality, you understand?

I should tell you that if you're no longer employed by us, then all contact

the unit you call your sister will be terminated. No, no. Also, as your body

keeps reminding you, you have a new lung.

Whilst it comes courtesy of the Prodigy Corporation, it isn't free.

You could work off the price here.

possessing Wendy, redeploy and paid off with a lifetime contract, or simply go

home and we'll bill you.

Did you really download my sister's consciousness to that body?

Is it her?

Those are two different questions.

One is practical, and the other, well, that's the real existential crux.

And I should add the difference between a trillion -dollar business and a

blanket with sleeves.

A what?

An invention that no one wanted.

So, are you still an employee of the Prodigy Corporation, or shall I have

security remove you from the island?

No, no.

I'm your man.

Excellent.

And when can I take her home?

Let me be clear about something, Prodigy Medic Hermit.

The unit you call your sister is the property of the Prodigy Corporation.

She is a prototype for a transhuman product which, once refined, will create

human immortality.

This makes her the next evolutionary step between our animal past and our

transhuman future.

There's no universe in which you get to take her home.

Are we clear?

She's still a human being.

No.

She's not.

Not anymore.

I don't know.

Smells like a mix of bad luck and loser.

How the hell?

So what, you work here now?

Yeah, whole squad.

Well, what's that supposed to mean?

Weird day.

I'm supposed to meet with Sylvia.

Have a seat.

Pirates are Indians.

When you fought the aliens, was it more like fighting pirates or Indians?

It's Peter Pan.

Wait, the crocodile.

You fought the crocodile, and now you can hear the clock.

No? It was hurting Joe.

Oh, right, the brother.

What do you think they're saying?

The aliens.

You shouldn't have cut them open.

They said that?

No. I don't know.

How would you feel if they cut you open?

Or stuck to my face, or drank my blood, or popped out my eyeball and burned into

my brain? I mean, they would if they could, you know, so why not just cut

open?

Should we let him stay, you think?

The brother?

Give him access to all this?

You?

Please.

He's nice.

It's nice if you like brothers.

Like I don't.

Or fathers, or mothers, you know?

Always telling us what to do.

Why do you think she wanted them?

Itani, the aliens.

I think we should send them back.

Because they hurt you?

Because it's wrong keeping them.

Uh, no. I tell you who we should send back. Your brother.

Please don't. Well, none of the others get to have brothers. I mean, what makes

you so special?

I'm not special. I...

Please. Oh,

come on. Come on.

What kind of intellectual argument is, please, no, I'm sorry, we should send

back on the next plane home? I mean, if you think about it, he didn't even come

visit you when you were sick.

Joe is working.

He was far away.

Oh, my God, it's too far. It's too hard. All I know is if I was your brother,

I'd find a way to be there.

Do you help me figure out what the aliens are saying?

I'll let you keep him.

Okay? But the minute he becomes a distraction... He won't.

I promise.

Pinkie promise.

Okay.

Away with you.

You know what?

Can I change my name?

You want to talk about this now?

I'm a grown man.

A scientist. I want a real name.

Our leader named you when you were born.

I know, but that's like, it's like a code name. Like, sport or chief.

It's not what you call a man.

No, a serious man.

What would you like to be called?

Well, I was thinking about scientists, you know, like famous thinkers.

And I was thinking Isaac.

Isaac Newton.

Yes, I think that's right.

Oh, hey.

Hey. I was just... I'm doing proper science now.

Kirsch really relies on me.

Kirsch?

That's awesome.

Yeah, and I've got a new name.

Isaac, after the old -time scientist.

Where'd you get that?

Gave it to myself.

How we can do that?

I don't know if I can, but I did.

Anyway, Kirsch said it was okay, so... I'm helping too, you know.

Arthur said that he needs something from the lab.

Oh.

Cool.

What?

Huh?

Yeah, what does Arthur need from the lab?

Oh.

Oh, it was, um... Okay,

well, we're going to go play some games.

So come.

And then...

You'll remember, probably.

Actually, I'm just gonna take a walk.

Just clear my head.

You sure?

Yeah, I'm just, um... You know, I'll see you later.

Bye.

Cool.

Me?

I'm not sure how this works, but I'm, um... Can you hear me?

I can hear you.

Oh.

Okay, well, great. I checked it out, you know, the lab.

And there's just no way, you know?

You're a very clever boy.

You'll figure it out.

Oh, no, no. What I'm trying to say is that... I can't do it.

Can't? Or won't.

My friends... So won't.

I'm sorry, Kumi.

Ah, Harush. I'm afraid sorry doesn't work.

You know, it's funny you called. I was just talking about you.

With your mother.

What? She thought you were dead.

Isn't that awful?

But me?

Oh, she can't hear you. This is our private line.

But you know what she told me?

Your brothers will be home soon.

I can't wait to meet them.

No, no, no, please, please, please. Oh, now it's please.

You know, Arush, I really wanted us to be friends.

We are, right? We are friends.

I hope so, but friends help each other, right?

I'll help.

Well, that's great.

What a relief.

He's gonna help.

I just don't know how, you know, like, there's just one of me and there's so

many guards and they have guns and... Here, I'll tell you what you're gonna

Instead of sneaking out an egg, you're gonna sneak in a person.

A person?

Into the lab.

Anyone you like.

Take them to see the eggs. Get them good and close.

Why?

Well, the egg is going to hatch and something is going to come out. Don't

It doesn't want you.

Something is going to come out and attach itself to the person's face.

And he or she is going to fall down.

And you need to find some place quiet to keep them. Not long, just a day or two.

And the thing on the person's face is going to fall off.

And that's when I bring them to you? Exactly.

But you'll have to be quick, okay?

Okay, but how do I... Don't worry.

I'll be close.

You call me, and I'll meet you.

What happens to the person I choose?

Well, they'll have a bad couple of days, for sure.

But I'll make sure they're comfortable.

Understand?

I don't understand. How do I choose?

Looks like your mom wants to say something.

Do you want to say something to Arush?

Arush?

Mummy?

We love you, son.

You know, every day your brothers and me talk about you. Arush!

Mummy?

Isn't that sweet?

But I've got to go. You know what you've got to do.

They say you have 24 hours to choose someone and get them in front of the

24... A day, I'm saying.

A day. This time tomorrow.

Okay.

Hey, remember before when we talked and you said all that stuff about how you'd

do anything you had to to protect your parents?

Are we clear?

We're clear.

Okay.

Okay.

Great. You're doing great.

Oh, not that one. Don't try this one. I don't get to choose?

It's chocolate.

It's good, it's good. You'll like it.

It's like motor oil. Jesus.

It doesn't really have a flavor. It's like a... It's a line of code, actually.

Like a subroutine that triggers a synthetic memory of a flavor.

Like a script.

It's Marty Pants.

Well, I've been reading a lot. The author has these computer chips.

Like a library.

You just... Upload them and suddenly all the information from the book is

suddenly in your head.

Wait, we can do that?

Mm -hmm. Anything you want. I'm learning zoology and advanced biology so I can

help Kurt out in the lab.

Can I ask you a question?

Yeah, of course.

What's the five?

The boss who keeps talking about the five.

Uh, well, the old planet had something called governments.

where people used to, they would vote for who they wanted making decisions,

right?

That didn't work.

So these five corporations, they rose up, and apparently they fixed all the

problems.

Now they work together to run things.

Prodigy, Weyland -Yutani, Threshold, Dynamic, Lent.

And the ship that crashed, that was Yutani's, and we took it, and they were

So they're probably asking the five to step in and get their stuff back.

They're creatures.

Yeah. They're life forms.

We've learned so much from them already.

I've forgotten so much. Why don't you just marry them?

Hey!

Hey!

We'll have a nice room when we're talking.

How come he's here?

He's my brother.

I've got brothers, too.

We've only got brothers and mothers.

And if they're not here, he shouldn't be either.

You're being rude.

You're not the boss of us.

I'm the oldest.

No.

Curly's, what, like, 12?

And Isaac, too. I agree.

Your family should be here, all of them.

Instead of having funerals, they should have had parties.

You were dying, and now...

Look at you.

Yeah, we should ask.

See our families.

No.

Demand. Yeah.

See my ma. No.

They'll get mad and might send us away, and I like it here. Me too.

I mean, we get respect here, and they've made us into something. Yeah.

I'm gonna go.

The boy junior said to go to the lab, so I'm going to go.

You don't have to.

I want to.

um um

I can't un -
