Quick, quick, Tom, look!

What are you doing? Tom, look.

Quick, shoot it.

Yep. Shoot it more. Over here.

Up there, up there in your corner.

- On the side. Get on the side. - Look here.

Yes! Oh.

Over here. Here.

Tom, what are you doing?

Tom! Ugh.

Oh.

Good one.

- What are you... - Mate, mate, oy.

- Give us the pen. - Just give me two seconds.

I've just gotta write this down.

- I'm not vandalizing. - Give me the pen.

Give me the pen.

Just give me two seconds, stop it!

- No, no, no, mate, mate! - You don't understand!

I'm about to revolutionize science!

Get your hands off me, mate.

The pair of yous.

I'm calling the cops, don't move.

Tom, we've gotta go.

Tom!

What is it that you don't get?

I've already explained.

- Can you simplify it? - No, I can't simplify it.

It doesn't get any simpler than that.

I just think there's gotta be

some kind of intelligent civilization.

No, no, no, that's a completely

irrational conclusion to come to.

It's mathematically near impossible

that type three civilizations exist.

It's more likely that the Dyson sphere

has been created and implemented

by a type two civilization.

KLG Community Radio.

I have one comment to make.

I read that NASA has plans to create a Dyson sphere.

Yeah, okay, and if you believe that, you're an idiot.

Keep your calls coming through to Tom's Terrestrial Tabloid.

I have a joke for you all.

Einstein developed a theory about space

and it was about time, too.

You're on Tom's Terrestrial Tabloid.

Regarding the Fermi paradox.

Do you feel that the great filter is ahead of us?

It must be.

It's... it's primitive thinking to believe

that Earth is special or one of a kind.

So, yes, it has to be.

Well, with the significant unknown variables,

isn't it just as likely the great filter is behind us?

We haven't found life.

No life, not even a smidgen of life

anywhere else in the universe.

So, yes, it has to be.

In all honesty,

I find the notion of a great filter unsound.

I find it much more likely

that physical colonization is a backwards concept

to a more advanced species.

Look, there is a great filter, there has to be.

There's no other viable option.

Unless there's plenty of noise and activity out there

but our technology is too primitive.

We seem to have lost the caller.

And that looks like it's a wrap for another week

on Tom's Terrestrial Tabloid.

So be sure to subscribe to the podcast.

Of course, follow me on all your social media

and remember, watch the skies.

It's my pleasure to share with you all

the potential of what this can do.

Uh, for those who are new,

I'm working on alternative spectrums of communications.

Specifically, dark radiation.

It is theorized that dark radiation can offer up--

Sorry, George, the slide.

- Here. - Oh. No, I've got it.

Um...

Okay, okay.

So I was saying that dark radiation is theorized

to have a whole new spectrum.

I've been developing the hardware

that will hopefully create and isolate

dark matter materials in a vacuum.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Isn't this what we saw last year?

Um...

Well, this...

If this can be developed...

Hang on. "If"?

The issue we have is that you still don't have anything.

No mockups, beta version.

They don't understand the potential.

But the communications industry,

we can't bank on a potential return

10 years away.

We tried getting someone in to work with you.

You know that wouldn't work.

We're not renewing your contract.

We've wasted 10 years on this already.

But, hey, I managed to talk them into allowing you

to continue to research on this IP in your own time.

But just remember.

We own the rights once you crack it.

We still want this to work.

- "Need" this to work. - I hate to say it

but I did warn you about this last year.

I don't know, George. Maybe find something new.

Lots of people find something meaningful to do

in old age.

Stop staring.

You told me 20 years ago that you never wanted

to set foot in a classroom again.

Have you looked at finding another backer?

Not really.

The IP is theirs anyway.

You've worked so hard to get this far.

It'll be a shame to throw it all away now.

Besides, retirement is not all it's cracked up to be.

I just read an entire book about ants.

Amazingly complex.

You know, there's these explorer ants.

Usually, they get killed.

But they're necessary

for the advancement of the whole colony.

I feel like I've wasted my life.

Amounted to nothing.

Look.

George, look at me.

I know you.

You'll be okay.

You will find your way.

I don't know.

Graham?

You'll never guess.

I'm heading back to the classroom.

Yeah.

Look, can we meet up at the park Thursday?

Same time.

Shit, I see it's our mistake.

- Doesn't surprise me. - What?

Surprise me.

Well, let's see what we can find for you.

What's your area?

Science, computer technology.

Got a couple of history classes I can give you. A half day.

Sorry for the mistake. Just one of those things.

Can I have some quiet, please?

The rules say if you're not here

in the first 10 minutes of class, then it's cancelled.

Yeah, class is cancelled.

Well, my watch says

it was meant to start eight minutes ago.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Girl with the red hair!

Did you just call me "girl with the red hair"?

I need you all to listen up.

Hey.

Hey.

Don't touch me!

I'm gonna report you.

That's right, walk away.

I thought you were here for the whole day.

Nope, I'm done.

Bugger.

My name is George West,

and for 29 years,

I've been working in computer programming

and experimental physics.

The focus of my career has been

on developing a new form of communication

which to my knowledge, no one else is researching.

You're in a room with a bunch of other people

all wearing blindfolds.

Everyone is talking over each other

and there is someone on the other side of the room

that you wanna communicate with.

But you have no hope of hearing them

above all the noise.

So, what do you do?

You take off the blindfold.

You communicate using your eyes.

Another sense.

That's essentially what I'm doing.

I'm creating a whole other way that we can communicate.

Gamma rays, X-ray, UV, they're all dangerous to us.

My research is looking at the very real possibility

of there being another spectrum entirely untapped

that is much larger than the electromagnetic spectrum.

So if my mobile phone uses microwaves,

could I use it to heat up my food?

So far, my research has been funded

- by a private company. - Oztel.

Your university is perfectly positioned.

I'm sold.

I was sold before you walked in.

Let's just say I do my homework.

Of course, the university would own

the complete intellectual rights to this property.

You do own the rights?

Of course.

It'll be a 12-month contract with quarterly progress reports.

Twelve months?

Consider it a trial.

What would you expect me to accomplish in one year?

Of course, you can continue teaching if you prefer.

Graham.

Trudy?

What's happened?

On behalf of Trudy and the family,

I would like to welcome you all here today

to this service of remembrance for Graham.

In speaking with Trudy this week,

she reminded me that Graham was the kind of person

who did well at whatever he put his hand to.

We're here today, of course, to mourn his loss.

At the same time, we want to remember his good qualities.

Each of us has only one life to live.

We each need to think about our legacy.

In what way is the world a better place

as a result of our own contribution?

What will we remember Graham

for having left behind?

I'm in.

I thought you would be.

There's one other thing.

I know you like to work alone, but I think it would be wise--

With all due respect, I am grateful.

But it really is just a one man--

I'm sorry, George, but that's the--

But I am someone who works best alone.

Call him your intern.

Plus, given the eight years of work to get where I am--

Those are the terms.

Who do you have in mind?

Okay, final question!

The paperboard, also known as the Chinese takeout box,

was invented in what country?

Uh, I think it was the United States.

Not China?

No. I'm pretty sure it was the U.S.

I don't know, I've never had Chinese takeout before.

Really?

Well, I'm not Chinese.

Well, maybe we should try it sometime.

Why would they call it Chinese? It doesn't even make any sense.

Okay, this calls for sudden death

between team Tom and Co.

And Better Late than Pregnant.

Okay, so if you guys can please choose

a representative from the table,

and have them come up the front, thank you.

Okay, sudden death.

Uh, the first team to get this wrong is out, okay.

An easy one to start off with here.

Is gravity a force that pushes objects apart

or pulls them together?

Oh, no help from the floor, please.

What's your answer?

- Pulls them. - Right, right.

It's neither.

Okay, one of these teams is correct.

Which means that was the final question

for this evening.

So, can we have a drumroll, please?

The answer is...

it pulls them together.

- Oh! Yes. - No.

Well done, guys, we'll get you vouchers.

- No wait, you're wrong. - What?

Chill out, pal.

Gravity is not a force.

It's a consequence of space-time.

Mate, I don't write what's on the cards.

Stop, listen to me.

The mass bends the space-time around it.

- Yeah, take it easy, mate. - Einstein proved it.

Hey, mate, just take mine.

I don't care about that. It's not about that.

You guys were wrong, I was right.

Look, you just have to accept what was on the cards.

- It's done, it's over. - I'm not coming back.

Hey, I can get you a voucher...

Wait, just calm down.

I have a radio show.

Radio show?

Yeah, it's really good.

I call it, Tom's Terrestrial Tabloid.

It's quite intelligent.

I see.

Budding celebrity scientist.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'll most likely have my own TV show at some point.

World tours, books, websites, that sort of thing.

Interesting.

I have two PhDs.

One PhD was enough for me.

I suppose that makes me more educated than you.

So this is it.

What have we got here?

The transmitter and the receiver.

Who's Graham?

An old friend.

You worked together?

Something like that.

Let me show you what I've got.

This is where I get stuck.

I can't get this damn thing to send the signal

from the transmitter to the receiver.

Fuck off.

First step is creating a stable transmission

of the signal from the transmitter to the receiver.

And the end game?

It will completely change

how we communicate with each other.

E-mail, text, video calls, all outdated instantly.

If this simple signal can be sent between these two machines,

then we have proven that dark radiation exists.

What information is in the signal?

It's a sine wave.

Instant and near infinite data transfer

between any two devices.

If we can do it, the license on the tech

would have to be billions, right?

Maybe, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

- The maths checks out. - It's not stable.

Then push it harder.

In my last video, I told you

that I was starting to research dark radiation.

This new form of digital communication

has limitless implications for the tech

and communication industries.

Make sure you don't put this on the radio

or anywhere else.

Not until we know what we have.

I found your YouTube channel.

It'll grow, I've only just started.

Six subscribers.

Any attention's better than none.

You have to take it down.

- What, why? - Take it down.

We don't know what we have yet.

- What do you mean? - We need more testing.

Don't be ignorant. This is science.

- Just take it down, all right? - All right.

It can't be from anything else, right?

So let's try again.

Hang on.

I know this.

I once estimated the curvature of the universe

using the predicated matter density at the time.

They should give us the ability to send

a dark radiation signal the distance required

from the transmitter to the receiver.

Try that.

We have dark radiation.

The future ain't what it used to be.

- Hey, princess. - This is Alicia.

Oh, nice to meet you.

You know, you should have introduced us, Tom.

All right, let's start.

Did you hear about Marian's new book deal?

It got read by Penguin.

Said it should get picked up.

It's kind of a big deal.

Yeah, but you haven't signed any contracts yet.

Well, no, not yet.

You know I'm working on some pretty interesting stuff

at the moment.

Oh, yeah, you've got that internship, haven't you?

Well, I hope they're going to give you

a well-paying job at the end of it.

It's not about the money.

Well, I'm just saying you have to be responsible.

You've got other people to think of.

You know, this work I'm doing at the moment,

it's, uh, it's pretty big.

Do you remember when Tom made that watch

and you stuck the speaker to it?

Do you remember that? And the microphone?

When did he do that?

Hello? Hello?

He never did get that ear-piece happening, did he?

Everyone walking around with their wrists

stuck to their ears.

Hello? Wait, I can't hear you!

He's having fun, isn't he?

Just take a joke, Tom.

You know what I don't get?

How you all support Marian

and her little book writing thing

which, let's be honest, is probably gonna go nowhere.

- Tom. - I mean, how many writers

are out there thinking they're gonna break through?

But none of you, not a single one of you,

know anything about what I'm doing.

You've always thought that you were better than us

and smarter than us.

Yeah.

'Cause I am.

Come on, let's go.

So, what's the announcement strategy?

I think I'll hold off on that for a bit.

I've had some stuff published online before.

- As I just said-- - I'm just...

I'm saying, what's the point if we just keep it to ourselves?

What's your plan?

The proper procedures, Tom.

We continue testing.

We cross check, make sure all claims are backed

with multiple verified sources and first-hand results.

We get an independent third party to verify.

But we do it right.

And eventually, we release it into a journal.

- A journal? - We are at...

For what, three academics to read?

No, fuck that. It's outdated,

and everything gets leaked online

before announcement these days.

At the moment, we have control over how the story gets shared.

I have a strategy that'll give us maximum exposure--

Hold up, hold up!

This isn't a publicity stunt.

All we've been able to do so far

is send and receive a signal two meters across the room.

Anything we claim,

respected scientists are going to try and prove wrong.

We must be watertight.

And they will come at it from every angle.

Well, fuck them.

No, Tom, we don't.

We could sell what we have to a tech company

right now for millions.

- Let me tell you a story. - Your stories suck.

Well, you're going to listen.

I spent six years working at Wittcom.

We developed wireless charging for mobile devices,

batteries, phones, prototypes.

We had them.

And then my partner, my...

He took pictures.

He posted them online.

The media mocked how they looked

because they were ugly prototypes.

So we rushed the launch.

We didn't do enough testing, the batteries caught fire.

Over 20 people got third-degree burns.

They only spent three months on the shelves, so no!

I am not going to rush this.

You finish calibrating.

You need to come back, now.

Tell me exactly what happened.

- Well, I-- - Wait a second.

You're recording?

What happened?

Well, I was about to shut down the receiver

and I just angled it this way and it was facing the window

- and then all of a-- - Don't touch it.

What's it picking up?

That filled up in, like, half a second.

We've got verifiable evidence

of a stable transmission signal

in a previously theoretical energy spectrum in the lab.

However, today, we briefly received a signal

originating from outside the lab instantly filling up

our hard drives.

The source of the signal is currently unknown

as the receiver was accidentally pointing

towards the sky,

but further tests to come.

So quick update.

We realized the receiver needed focusing

which we've modified

and that we needed to track the source

as it moves across the skies.

So tonight's the test to see if we can track

this moving signal.

And now we wait.

Tell me.

You have a lot of education.

How is it that you haven't found the right vocation yet?

I don't really do well with people.

I mean you're okay.

Your positives outweigh your negatives, but...

most people, they just get in my way.

My second PhD, they tried to stop me.

I was trying to disprove Einstein.

Could you?

He's a tough man to beat.

For me...

I always wanted to contribute in some kind of way.

Some say they find that in having kids.

I have a son.

We don't really have much contact.

Nothing happened, we just...

We just don't talk.

I guess, at some point,

this work just became more important to me.

You found what was more important.

There'll always be plenty of people

but not many worth remembering.

Clear line of sight.

Receiving.

We found it.

We found the source.

Who are they?

- Catherine. - George.

First of all, I need 100 % assurance

that this conversation stays between us.

Of course.

If I gave you a code, a signal, a waveform.

Could you decipher it?

I think there might be a story.

I really think the newspapers

are gonna be really interested in this.

- Wow. - Hello. Can I help you?

Hi, I'm Monique.

George.

What brings you here?

I saw a clip of Tom's, actually,

of some really cool science stuff.

It looks really interesting.

I think there might be a story here.

Actually, I'd prefer we didn't.

Oh, maybe we can find another time

that suits all of us.

We don't have much to report on at the moment

but if you wanna leave your name, details.

Look, if you're willing,

I'd be really excited to write something up on my website.

I'm sorry, I didn't catch who you work for.

I freelance to various media outlets.

As I said, we'll let you know.

What was that about?

I don't know. She just dropped by.

What was she doing here?

I said I don't know.

- What did you tell her? - I didn't say anything.

She said you were telling her about--

I didn't say anything specific.

I was just using big words she wouldn't understand.

Until she Googles them!

Not a word to anybody.

Understand?

Sure.

So here it is.

It's intelligent.

We found intelligent life.

Given the nature of what we're dealing with,

we need to be sensitive

with what we share with other people.

So it would be better for everyone

if you fill this in.

What's this?

University requirements.

Have you signed one?

It's a little different for me

given that it was my project to begin with.

I'll have a look over it and get back to you.

I might get you to fill that in right now

if you don't mind.

There's another favor I need to ask you.

I need the lab to myself for a few days.

Why?

Just to do some coding.

I can stay out of your way. I'll just put my headphones in.

I can't have you here.

I can't say any more than that.

Can I help you?

Hi, I'm Alicia.

Tom's girlfriend.

Is he here?

I let him knock off early.

Oh, he didn't tell me.

I bought Chinese takeaway.

Oh, well, I'll find him at home, I guess.

I heard Monique dropped by today.

- The journalist? - Hopefully one day.

If someone gives her a job.

Tom knows her?

Yeah, since high school.

You know, he really loves it here.

Is that right?

It's all he ever talks about.

He'd never admit it,

but he actually really respects you.

Oh, well.

Thank you.

That's very kind of you.

Anyway...

Bye.

That reporter seemed nice.

Yeah, I guess.

You haven't heard from her again?

No.

Tom.

- I know you know her. - What?

Let me make one thing positively clear.

We have something truly extraordinary.

It is just you and me who have it.

We need to be absolutely prudent with our handling of this.

If we make one wrong move, we jeopardize everything.

How long do you expect me to wait?

We have received 50 terabytes of information

never before heard by anyone in the history of humankind.

Hold on.

All we have is a scattered signal of white noise.

Right?

I have something to show you.

Holy fuck.

Yup.

Everything about the universe.

Quantum mechanics, inorganic chemistry.

Metaphysics, everything.

And we're only getting started.

You kept this from me?

You wanna talk about trust and honesty and confidence--

Don't start.

I have to go.

But we can talk more about this when I get back.

You know, there are others out there researching this, too.

What do you mean?

We're not the only ones.

Monique told me about some group in Belgium

that are exploring this, too.

Except they don't have stable dark radiation yet.

It's not a race.

But we can talk more when I get back.

It is a race.

No one's gonna care if we come second.

And you're just casually holding the...

Do you know what?

I just can't fucking believe you wouldn't tell me,

and you're just sitting on this like no one

could beat us to it.

Well, you're not helping with that radio show either.

This is fucked.

It's pretty mind blowing.

And it makes me wonder,

did all the greatest scientists know what they had

when they made their discoveries?

I mean, did they really grasp what they had

and what to do with it?

That's what we've gotta figure out.

Anyway, that's a wrap for Tom's Terrestrial Tabloid.

So be sure to subscribe to the podcast.

Follow me on all your social media

and remember, watch the skies.

I found something.

I got mice.

Perfect.

And what are we gonna teach him, Professor X?

Problem solving skills.

And what does that look like in mice?

I honestly don't know.

It's definitely reversible, isn't it?

Theoretically, we can extract the information.

Here we go.

Too much?

Let's find out.

Ready?

It's working.

We actually made it smarter.

Next level.

Human testing.

Don't even think about it.

It's too much for an adult.

The brain would need to be malleable.

Like a child.

So what I need right now is to get this information out

to as many people as possible.

Right now, you have no followers.

Yeah. I have been doing all the right things.

You know, I post at the right times,

I hashtag,

I'm across all different social media channels.

It's just not working.

I can help you with that, I promise.

That's what I'm here for.

So, um, what's Alicia up to?

Uh...

She's working, I think.

Is she the type of person that would be weird about this?

About what?

You know, us hanging out...

alone.

Mmm.

I would really love to write this story.

Give me a chance to put my uni debt to use.

You really want it, don't you?

Give me something to write about.

Okay, so it's just a small amount

of data to begin with.

Only 0.3 megabytes.

It shouldn't have too much of a meaningful effect.

Let me guess.

Not the usual short black.

Tea.

You ordered an herbal tea.

Let me see, lemongrass, no, peppermint, chamomile,

dandelion, ginger.

You ordered a ginger tea.

Well, you'll have to wait and see.

What's happened is you've experienced some success

which has increased your confidence

therefore allowing you the mental freedom

to take risks, even if it's as minute

as sampling an untried hot beverage.

Have you ever wondered how what you do

affects other people around you?

One hundred years after you're dead,

no one will know you.

Tom.

- The internet. - What?

That's why we have the internet.

Ginger tea.

Thank you.

Can you imagine what we could do with this information?

We own the first recorded signal from an intelligent life.

We could cure diseases,

we could achieve time dilating space travel,

teleportation, immortality.

Maybe.

But that doesn't mean we should.

Don't.

It's been a while.

Where are we up to?

Well, you know what they say.

A thousand errors for one success.

Going through all the necessary processes.

A thousand errors?

Is that a science term?

I don't know.

I thought it was well-known.

I guess not.

And Tom?

How's he doing?

Working well between you two?

He's been very useful.

Provided valuable insight and help.

Two heads are better than one.

Tell me.

Why did you assign Tom as opposed to anyone else?

He's been at the university

in some way, shape, or form for a while now.

We recognized his brilliance

even back when he was an undergrad.

I was a little worried we might lose him.

And you need someone to work with.

So far, so good.

I've realized, looking at the world around me,

that no one gets it.

No one can see the true reality of what's going on

or their role within it.

I look around at the world and all I see are...

I wouldn't even call them machines.

Machines, at least, are intentionally designed

and serve a purpose.

People are purely acting out the actions

based upon their physical makeups.

The idea of free will can finally be put to rest.

Cause and effect explains it all.

Complete determinism.

But their idea of cause and subsequent effect

is infantile at best.

The role they play is no longer necessary.

These machines are obsolete.

Everyone's actions are merely a result of something.

And now,

I understand my role in this system.

I've got something to show you.

- Yeah? - Mm.

Really?

The colony is under extreme danger

with all the ant's lives at risk.

The host ants require serious action

to prevent the entire colony from complete extermination.

Under these extreme circumstances,

ants can sabotage and destroy their own nest

for the greater good of the colony.

Einstein was wrong.

Are you gonna tell me where you were last night?

Einstein was wrong.

Where were you?

More importantly, Einstein was wrong.

Where were you?

I was with Monique.

Now, my book.

I'm about to share with you the secrets of the universe

that will revolutionize your worldview.

We live in a universe of 29 dimensions

defined by the path integral quantization

of the two dimensional actions of the conformal field.

The field in the world view describes the embedding

of the string 28 plus one space-time dimensions.

I will then prove to you that we live in a multi-verse

in which the physical world,

specifically, the level three multiverse

is the mathematical structure.

Excuse me.

Paul.

You cheating fuck!

You thought you'd get away with it

and we'd never know?

Hang on a second. You fired me.

I haven't sold anything.

You know you could go to jail.

You gave our IP to the university.

You need to come in and fix this, George.

- Now. - All right.

Let me sort it out, and I'll get back to you.

Have a good show, I'll tune in.

Oh.

You've just missed Tom. He's gone to do his radio show.

Has Tom told you?

He doesn't tell me much.

Yeah, I figured he wouldn't tell you, so...

We're separating.

Oh.

It's perfect timing, right?

What's the issue?

Sorry, I shouldn't have asked.

Yeah, I shouldn't have said anything.

Just go easy on him.

He's gonna need someone like you.

Bye, George.

I have a question for Tom.

Oh, we have another caller.

You remember that form you signed?

George.

Yep.

The non-disclosure agreement?

Ah, perhaps you had a science question.

No.

You do realize that you are not meant to talk about

anything about our research to anyone?

Yes.

Even your girlfriend?

Her eyes just glaze over at this stuff anyway.

- And online. - Obviously.

Or on YouTube!

Let me send you a link

to something I found interesting.

Ah, let's go to another song, shall we?

Why would you do that to me?

Did you get my e-mail?

Can you see me?

Are you streaming lab cam now?

You've broken the contract

that you just signed.

You've broken the law.

The university is gonna take you to court.

You have completely jeopardized the integrity of our work.

I am not gonna let you squander it away, Tom.

I am not going to let you ruin my life's work!

George, listen to me. I'm sorry, okay?

But if you take this to the university and tell them,

we'll lose the whole thing.

You will lose everything.

No one sees these videos, trust me.

No one watches them.

I was just so frustrated that you were sitting on this.

Keep them deleted.

Yes?

There is no formal statement from the university.

Discredit the author, find out how this got out

and make sure Tom and George don't talk.

What can you tell me?

Well, at 2:38 this morning,

a recent graduate of our university

made a post on her personal website titled,

"Local Scientists Discover Intelligent Alien Message."

Usually, this wouldn't be a problem,

except she tweeted and e-mailed

all major media outlets across the world.

Again, this wouldn't be a problem

except a reporter at one of them,

Handelsblatt in Germany...

Fucking Germans.

...is a former member of SETI,

- Search for Extra-- - Terrestrial Intelligence. Shit.

Shall I continue?

They ran the story almost identically

to what was originally written.

Then another in Finland.

Within three hours, it was across 28 major...

No, hold on.

That's 103 major media outlets.

And to be honest, I'm surprised it took so long

for you to be contacted.

Be careful.

Right. Shall we begin?

As you're all aware,

our university has a long-standing history

of pushing the edges of discovery

and the support we provide to creative researchers.

One of these projects has recently garnered

a lot of interest.

And as usual,

speculation and rumor has been spread by the media.

So, today, we're going to set the record straight.

I'd like to introduce our honorable Chancellor

to tell you more.

Thank you, Shannon.

These two scientists are researching dark radiation.

A term which is new to the scientific community

with very little known about it.

And before I make you all aware of my ignorance,

I'd like to hand it over to Dr. West

to tell you more about their research.

Thank you.

I've been working at the university

with my partner here, Tom Edsman,

for the past eight months.

The area in which we are researching is dark radiation.

No questions for now.

I have been researching this area for over nine years

but it seems that in the last little while

things have gotten out of hand.

What Dr. West is saying

is that there has been wild speculation

spread by the media.

We are excited by the possibilities

but there is definitely nothing to announce.

We are still a long way away with our process.

Years away.

Such is the scientific method.

The woman who first wrote the story on her personal blog

is not a credible source.

And her quotes from Mr. Edsman are completely falsified.

Is that true, Tom?

Scientific breakthroughs are not scandals

but we do believe that in due course,

we will be able to announce--

Can you tell us anything about the research

you've accomplished to date?

As we said before, we are--

I wanna hear from the scientists themselves, thanks.

On the third of June I received a signal from space

which was transmitted by a highly intelligent life form.

This signal contains information

which we have recorded for some time.

What Tom is trying to say is that--

To date, we have recorded approximately 11 petabytes

and we're on track to gather more information

than the total collective knowledge of all of humankind.

This information can be transplanted into organisms.

I know because I've done it to myself!

This is unsubstantiated and completely falsified!

Thank you all for coming today.

In breaking news,

a research team at RIST university...

...claiming that they have received

an intelligent signal from space.

It is because of scientists like this

that the public don't have the faith

in rigorous scientific research.

What happened with being honest with each other?

It's 0.034 seconds slow.

George!

Here, take this.

Whoa.

Let's just take a minute, shall we?

Just checking.

Have yourself a good day.

Rough day, rough day.

George, it's important you do not take,

tamper with, or do anything with our property.

Who's taking over?

No one knows what we've been doing here.

I built this.

You know, I was glad when Tom blew it.

One might even think we put him up to it.

You can't even talk to anyone about this.

Bullshit.

You don't own my ideas.

My thoughts, my knowledge.

Your contract, George.

Maybe you need me to remind you what you signed.

- This is ridiculous! - George!

We need to know that you're not going to talk.

Hi, you called Graham Dawson.

Please leave a message after the tone,

and I'll get right back to you.

It's all gone, Graham.

I've got nothing left.

They've taken everything.

I've got nothing left to show.

And I don't want it to all have been for nothing.

I'm sorry. Your message has taken too long.

Please hang up and try again.

Can I help you?

I'm done.

- What? - You deceived me.

Made me break the law without knowing.

Hang on a second.

You made me work with that kid.

We are facing a lawsuit.

And given that it was me who supported you,

I've been fired!

You're a disgrace, George!

Uh, it can wait.

Get it.

I always thought you'd make it.

You're good, George. I forgot how good you are.

What are you saying? Is this an apology?

Not an apology.

You fucked up. Real bad.

Selling them our IP?

Fraud, jail probably.

I was always good to you.

But, hey.

I got good news which you don't deserve.

We're offering you a position

to come back and finish what you started.

This is your project, your life's work.

We've been pushing your tech harder than you ever did

but we're stuck.

The side effects of our test subjects

are unpredictable.

Side effects?

That's where we need you, George.

I'll give you the money,

the resources you need.

However you want it.

But we keep it quiet.

Because if you go down, I go down with you.

Deal.

You've taken 453 breaths since coming inside.

You want some water?

Six to eight breaths per minute for optimum performance.

You should slow down.

Pure H2O can kill you.

Tom?

Tom!

Early reports suggest

this was a coordinated group suicide.

Those involved were not part of a wider network.

The identity of those involved is suppressed

but we can confirm this.

The number of victims at this stage, five.

According to a source,

the victims have been subject to experimentations.

But at this stage, that's speculation.

A friend of one of the victims described the deceased

as private and hardworking but increasingly antisocial.

There have been reports of some victims

displaying uncharacteristic tendencies.

Like erratic and trance-like behavior,

social disengagements, talking to themselves,

and unprovoked assaults on...

Tom, wake up, we're going.

Come on, come on.

Open the door.

Open the door!

Open the door now!

Come on.

Tom?

Can you hear me?

George.

George.

George, we gotta get out of here.

Paul, I'm sure you're aware by now

that I've burnt your lab down.

But I also know that those suicides trace back to you.

I guess we're at a stalemate.

Goodbye, Paul.

Hey.

I'm so sorry.

I was lost and confused, and...

I didn't know what I was doing.

But I do now.

I'm here.

And I'm ready for this.

Are we good to go?

All right.
