All language subtitles for Good Luck Have Fun Dont Die 2025 CinemaCity

Is that it?

I'll get another top off.

You be good.

Hey.

Hey!

This isn't a robbery. I am from the
future. And all of this

goes horribly wrong.

Horribly wrong.

Are you engaged?

Am I not engaging enough?

I traveled here today to tell you that
things do not go well.

for you in the future. In fact, I'd say
you were embarking upon a darkness

possible timeline. It's all a giant
mistake.

Did someone call the cops? Social media
has robbed you of your dignity and

turned you all into children.

Your bad selfie culture has eroded your
capacity for critical thinking. Stop it.

No one leaves.

Listen to my words. This is important.

Here we go.

Fine, fine.

I got a bomb.

Yeah. These are all bombs. We're covered
in bombs. Come any closer. Try to

escape them. I'll blow us all up.

Are we adequately scared now?

Good, great. Sit down. Be comfortable.

Hey, sir.

That means you now. Sit down. Sit down.

Come on.

We got a hero.

Sit down.

Like I said, I'm from the future, a
future which is totally and completely

fucked. And guess what? It's all your
fault.

Not specifically you 40 or so people,
but everyone from your time.

You're all equally complicit, and I'm
here to set it right.

It all started with morning phone time.
At first, people would wake up, check

their emails in bed, look at Facebook,
scroll Twitter, XYZ, whatever, just a

minutes. No big deal.

But morning phone time...

It just got longer and longer.

Eventually, people stopped getting out
of bed entirely.

Society fell apart.

People had to be hooked up to feeding
tubes and catheters.

The medical supply industry boomed, but
everything else was fucked.

No one even noticed that the fucking
world had ended.

Are any of you even listening to me?

Let me ask you something.

Where did all the bookstores go?

Huh? Yeah.

What did you do when the record store
started disappearing?

Nothing. He did nothing.

Pop quit.

Anybody know a phone number?

I bet not one of you knows a single
phone number by heart anymore.

Progress is only progress that makes
things better.

Otherwise, it's a mistake.

The man in these made wrong turns
before.

Hitler, the Segway, someone just has to
be there to turn us around, put us back

on course, to say, no, children, this is
all right, this is not the way.

That's why I'm here.

I'm looking for recruits, soldiers,
people who have nothing to lose and

everything to fight for. There is an
artificial intelligence coming in the

-so -distant future that's just as whole
human civilization.

But it can't be stopped.

Humanity can be saved.

And this is where the revolution begins.

This isn't a joke.

This is where it starts.

Yeah. Out of fucking norms in Los
Angeles.

Somewhere in this diner is the correct
combination of people who are going to

join me in this revolution.

And save humanity.

I'm going to find that right group, and
we are going to succeed.

This is my 117th time in this diner,
doing this exact speech.

Can you imagine that?

117 times I've tried to get through to
all of you.

Kind of like your favorite movie, Jim
Groundhog's Day. That's your favorite

movie, isn't it, Jim?

Yeah?

Yeah.

I have experienced this night over and
over again, each time with a different

combination of people in the Steiner.
And every time we have failed, I have

some of you in my arms and watched the
very life flicker from your eyes.

Some of you I even consider family. I've
done this so many times, I know some of

you better than you know yourselves.

Hey, Nancy Delaney and Charles Roberts,
you're on your first date.

Charles thought norms was the right
call.

We've been planning our actions for 20
minutes. Neither one of you have ever

joined my revolution and made it out of
the Steiner alive.

Excuse me.

You!

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

You are the least useful person I've
ever met.

29 times you've raised your hand to join
my revolution.

29 times.

You've been a fucking albatross around
my neck. You've got a bad knee, Gerald.

Figure it out.

You died 16 minutes into the journey
every time.

You're also mind -numbingly dull.

Raise your hand tonight. I fucking dare
you.

There she is, my queen. Yes.

Don't be coy.

You are my greatest soldier, my warrior
in this revolution. We push it all the

way to the limit.

You tell me things about myself I never
wanted to see, but things I needed to

know. Sexual tension between us is like
a summer storm, but we never act on it.

You betray me every goddamn time. You
break my heart, but here I am looking at

those big brown eyes of yours, and I'm
thinking, fuck it.

Let's roll those dice one more time,
baby. Let's burn it all down.

If you come with me, there is a chance
you will die tonight. If you don't,

that's game over for each and every
person in this room. I promise you that.

tonight we got a shot.

We can save the world, start over, do
something, something real.

Dolores, do not call the police again.
Put that phone away.

There's a correct configuration of
people in this diner that perfectly

the future and saves humanity.

I am not fucking wrong about this. I
will try every single combination until

get it right. So I need to know right
now, who's joining me?

Who's ready to save the future?

You're Spartacus. Let's go.

Let's go, big boy. Up and at him.

There they are. Hey, five beta caps.

What do you say? Come on, fellas. Beer's
on me.

Let's make some bad decisions.

Toga, toga, toga.

Hey,

remember... Hi. Okay.

Baby, it looks like it's just you and
me.

Wouldn't be the first time, am I right?

What did he say?

Make it the last.

Huh?

Come on, kid.

Hey.

Really? Zero hands?

You kidding me?

That's the first fucking time. That's
it,

man. Hey, why don't you just go before
you get yourself hurt, huh?

You're not well.

Fuck you, Pete.

I'm not crazy.

Why is everyone from your timeline so
fucking dumb? You look homeless, bro.

said that?

Fuck you, too. I'm not homeless.

I come from a nightmare apocalypse. This
is the height of fucking fashion where

I come from.

Did you see what our homeless look like?
They look dead.

Oh, fantastic.

You've come to police.

Thank you so much, Dolores.

This is a total butt.

Whatever.

All right, Earl.

I'm getting out of here.

I've got a bad feeling about this run
from the jump.

What are you looking at?

I've got to carve up for the trip. I'd
like to see you survive the calorie burn

of a temporal rift.

I'll join you.

Well, I'll be damned.

Uh, yeah.

Ma 'am, please, join us.

Right over there.

Anyone else?

No. I mean, if there wasn't a bust after
all.

Well, that's bad news for the rest of
you, because now we're going to do it

hard way.

Let's go. You, phony soprano. Let's go,
shit bird.

Oh, okay, okay.

Stay in there with her.

There are 47 people in this diner, which
means there are millions of possible

combinations, but I will find the right
people. Not you, not you.

Definitely not you.

You two, let's go. All right,

all right, all right.

Go stand with the others. Everyone tries
any shit, I'm going to detonate this

bomb. Now!

Take me!

Just don't hurt these people.

All right, big boy. Keep coming, too.
Hurry it up.

Shit, we're running out of time. Not
you.

Definitely not you. Put your fucking
hand down. Gerald, please, come on.

I'll go with you.

No, absolutely not.

Why?

I don't know. You creep me out. You got
a real...

Offer meds for I don't need that shit.

Let's see.

That's five.

Yeah.

I don't know. One more.

You. Wind beneath my wings. Let's go.
You. Why not? Let's go. Sure.

Come on.

That's six.

That could be enough.

Hard to say.

You know what? Fuck it. You're coming
too.

I'm in a weird mood tonight. Let's go,
princess.

I guess that means the rest of you get
the night off. Kindly stay in your seats

until we get out of here and no hero
bullshit.

This is a weird fucking group, isn't it?

Definitely never tried this combination
before.

Oh, exactly. We're going to get out of
here.

Usually we don't. A deranged man with a
bomb holding an entire restaurant

hostage. Makes for a dead standoff with
the boys in blue.

Hey,

it's going to be okay.

Or it's not. I don't know.

If this isn't the right group, well,
I'll be honest.

You're in for a rough night.

But if this is the right group, then
that means each and every one of you is

bringing something to the table that's
going to help save this world.

I'm just assured our entire lives have
been building to this night.

Either way.

I say, fuck it. Let's roll those dice.
The revolution begins tonight!

Good luck!

Have fun!

Go guys!

I'm nervous.

I feel like I need more saliva in my
mouth. I'm too old for this.

No, you're not. You're very
appropriately aged.

They're not going to like me.

Probably true, but that's okay.

You're not here to be liked.

I don't think this is a good idea.

Mark, can we please not do this again
now?

Well, I just don't see this being a good
fit for me.

So quit. Do whatever you want. God knows
you always do.

What's his name?

Who? The guy that left on the whatever.

The sabbatical? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Tim,
they called him Mr. Capshaw? Yeah, yeah.

When's he coming back? I don't know.

Okay, I have to go. I'll see you at
lunch. You're going to be fine. I

I don't like people.

I know, but they're barely people.

I'm your substitute teacher.

You can call me Mark.

I'm not sure if that's against the
rules.

But speaking of rules, are you allowed
to have your phones out in class like

this?

This is Anna Karenina by Count Leo
Tolstoy. Can anyone tell me who Tolstoy

A boomer.

Incorrect.

He's a Russian writer from the 19th
century, and we will be reading this

Is it YA?

No. Is it A?

I don't think that's a thing.

Did they make a movie of it?

I don't know. That's irrelevant.

I found it.

It's like a million years old, though.

It has Keira Knightley in it. Can you
put away your phones, please?

I'm listening to the audiobook.

It fucking sucks.

Oh, no.

The audiobook doesn't count. You have to
read the actual book.

Yes.

I need a Pepsi.

A what?

I need a Pepsi.

I haven't had a Pepsi yet today, and I
need a Pepsi.

Can I go get a Pepsi?

Why do you keep saying Pepsi so much?

What did they give you?

I love the great English. On your first
day? Yeah.

It's brutal.

I caught a student passing a note this
morning.

You know what it says?

What? Have you tried Southern Heat
Barbecue Doritos?

They're delicious.

That's an advertisement, right?

They're literally advertising to each
other. They passed a handwritten note?

No. It was an app. I think it was a note
passer.

Yeah, they love that one.

Did you guys hear about Craig?

He's on sabbatical.

Stress -related. Lucky bastard.

What exactly are the rules about
students using phones in class?

Oh, that's a ridiculous question. Rules?

Are there rules in War Mark?

No, it just seems like they shouldn't be
allowed to have their phones out. I

don't like it either, man.

I've been working on something in my off
hours.

What is that?

Jesus Christ, please don't encourage
him, Mark.

Call it a jammer.

Locks up their phones, bricks them,
really freaks the little fuckers out.

Yeah, he looks like a toy from Martha's
Axe. Yeah, he loves that movie.

Classic. Can you just put that away,
Dale, please?

What is that?

Not again.

Skull shooting.

Really?

Come on.

Clark.

You're a sad old lady.

I'm not that old.

You're like a hundred years old.

You're like a witch.

I'm only 35.

That's like older than most trees.

You're like my mom's age.

You're like a dead person.

Hey, leave her alone. Mark, Mark.

What did you say, Grandpa Dinosaur?

Honey, he didn't mean it.

He didn't mean it.

I said just, you know, just ease up on
her, that's all.

All clear.

Everyone to class.

Where's Dale?

Oh, he went on sabbatical.

Oh, lucky son of a bitch.

Why is everyone on sabbatical?

Like, what does that even mean? Mark,
some people just need to go on

It's a hard job.

How do you even know if Dale's on
sabbatical? My principal told me.

Where's the principal?

On sabbatical.

I'm almost positive high school teachers
don't go on sabbatical. These are

troubling times, Mark.

I'm sorry.

I did something bad.

I think I'm in trouble.

What did you do?

I touched one of their phones.

You did what?

The images were hypnotic. They were
drawing me in.

Just random flashing images.

And on each one of their phones, the
exact same images.

I think there's something sinister going
on.

I think the teachers are disappearing.

And I think the students have something
to do with it. Also, high school

teachers don't go on sabbatical. I
checked it out. Mark, do you know how

paranoid you sound right now?

I'm sorry, but can you just do the right
thing for me?

For us? Just once, Mark? I swear if I
lose this job because you touched a

phone. Jenna, Jenna, Jenna.

I know things aren't great between us
right now.

And I know I fucked up my last six jobs.

But I'm not being paranoid.

I cannot believe this is happening.

I need us to be a team right now,
please.

Please.

Why did you touch the phone? I don't
know.

You didn't think they were -

Three exits at this dorm's diner. Front
door, back door, inside emergency.

Maybe we can negotiate with them. Maybe
they'll believe your story. You know

about the revolution?

Yeah, maybe pigs will fly it on my ass.
Don't patronize me, Bob.

I know you don't believe me. But if you
make it out of here at some point

tonight, you will. And if any of you are
thinking about making a run for the

cops... Yeah, right here. Just one push.

One push. If you're from the future, why
don't you stop the waitress from

calling the cops?

Maybe I did, Scott.

Maybe someone else called the police.
Someone not in this diner.

Someone who told them I'm strapped to
the bottom of multiple accomplices.

if you've done this so many times, then
why don't you just tell us which way to

go? Because there's no correct answer
here, Janet.

I'm telling you what I know.

There are three bad options.

The front.

Obviously the worst.

We got it! We got it!

The back.

I'll be on it. It shuts the promise at
first.

Okay, okay, come on. Let's go, let's go,
let's go.

Stay low, stay low, stay low. Be quiet.

There!

That was the emergency side exit.

Now that's a real stick jar.

I'd really, really rather not try that
again.

Why are you relinquishing this nut job?
He's never been here before.

What are we talking about? Look, just
tell us, based on your experience, what

our best chance of getting out of here
alive?

I really don't like to say it out loud.
It's kind of a morale killer.

Oh, come on!

All right, fine.

We split into two groups.

One group goes out the back door, and
the other sacrifices their lives so the

other can make it. Oh, come on, no!

That's a bummer. Yeah, I know. It's a
real fucking bummer.

even counting down. Yeah, you haven't
even told us our goal.

Something about AI?

Yeah, we don't really get into that
until we get out of the diner, okay?

we're not getting out the front.

Don't look at me. I guess you followed a
princess.

How many are there?

A lot.

Well, who's going?

Not me. Fuck that. Real brave, Scott.

I'll go.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. No,
no, no, no. Let me go. No, no, no.

I applaud your gumption there, princess,
but I know that look in your eyes.

Where I come from.

Those eyes are more common than brown.
I'm trying to save the world here.

I facilitated suicide, okay?

Does anyone have any weapons?

None that are useful in this situation.

What the fuck does that mean?

What, are you packing?

No, I... Bob here's got a gun.

Yeah. He's planning to shoot me with
him. Be the big hero. I wasn't. I'm

Bob. We've been through this before.

In fact, I picked you out. You're kind
of my lucky charm.

Guess what, Bob?

You are going to be the big hero
tonight.

What are you talking about? I want you
to buy us our window.

We've done it before. We've survived
before.

Do it for those boys back at your booth.

That's Boy Scouts, right? Troop 47. I'm
the assistant scout leader.

You're not going to be assistant
tomorrow. Do it for 47.

I can hear, Bob. It all begins with you.

Those boys out there, they're never
going to forget the day Bob saved the

fucking world.

Get out there.

Semper Fi, you got this.

Let's go.

Semper Fi, Bob.

Okay, let's go. Bob's dead. Everyone
follow me.

What do you mean?

He's dead. Come on, quickly.

Never tried that before. I thought it
was worth a shot. Oh, well. I'm sorry.

someone else coming up with a plan? It's
dark time.

Oh, God damn it. They've reached the
front.

Well, then let's try the other side. No
point. No point. Everyone relax. Look,

this group is a bust. I have fucking
norms.

Sometimes if you lie down, they don't
shoot so much. You better find a way to

get in. Hey, clicky, clicky. Wait, wait,
wait.

Wait. There's another way. Oh, look who
started getting involved.

In the office.

There's a hidden door and it leads to
the cellar. In the cellar, there's a

crawlspace and it takes a turn. I can
sit down the block.

There's no cellar. I've been here 117
times. I've never seen a cellar.

Hey, where are you going? Guy with the
bomb. Guy in charge.

Okay, okay. Show me this magic secret
door that somehow I've missed.

Well,

what the hell did I just kill Bob for?

Maybe speak up a little faster next
time.

Susan?

All right, before we leave, I need
everyone's cell phones. Come on. What?

Just do it, or I'm going to murder,
suicide us all in the restaurant office.

Let's go. Come on. Come on. Come on.

All right, all right, all right.

Hey, hey. I don't have one.

Yeah, of course you don't. Where'd it
go?

So unnecessary!

Down the ladder. Come on. Guy with the
button, huh?

Let's go. Hey, hey.

Tell me, seriously, how did you know
about that?

Huh?

Let's go.

That there was a way out of here? Yeah.

Over there.

Who the fuck are you? Tell me right now.

You knew there was a door up there.

You a cop or something?

No.

Who said you?

I just wanted to help.

You just wanted to help? She saved our
life, man.

You just knew there was a basement in
Norm's. Hey, hey.

Look at me.

Maybe it's just like you said.

We are the right group, huh?

Are we gonna get out of here?

Dude!

Something's different tonight.

Come on.

My little Robbie.

Poor little Robbie.

What's worse is mine was shot by his
best friend.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

I have to go halfway across town and
rush out with traffic.

Did you lose your child in the school
shooting today?

Ours died too.

After we find the paperwork, you can
come with us.

It's your first time, right?

Would be great.

Your kid.

Would be a great kid.

Yes. It's a shame.

It's a shame when a great naked shot
light appears.

You'll come with us.

Right after.

Yeah. She's in shock. Give her the card.

Go tomorrow.

Tonight, just go home.

Why deal with the traffic?

Why deal with it? Tomorrow's as good as
today.

Maybe you run a bath.

Go first thing in the morning. All
right.

Who's next?

You go, honey.

Hi, Wendy.

Hey, Brenda.

It's just a little paperwork, and then
you can go to the store.

She's going to go tomorrow.

Good idea. What with all the traffic.

That's exactly what we were saying.

Thank you.

Hi there.

Welcome. We're so sorry for your loss.

My name is Blaze. How can I help?

I don't know what I'm doing here.

Oh, first time.

First time.

Okay, well, yeah, that is not a problem.
We can get you set right up.

Okay. Which school did the shooting take
place at?

Uh, Glenhurst.

Glenhurst.

Darren's in the ninth grade.

He was.

Ninth grade. Great.

Great. Got it.

So, are you looking to clone Darren
today?

What? We can recreate your son in a
clone body.

Fully organic human flesh taken directly
from your son's source DNA.

I don't... What do you mean?

Are you saying you can give me my hand
back?

Yes. Yeah, I mean, the process isn't
perfect.

I mean, physically.

Physically, it is spot on. You know, we
have that down. But when it comes to the

personality, well...

We do our best.

The brain is a tricky thing.

This is real.

Why have I never heard of it before?

Oh, it's a classified program.

Yeah, we keep it pretty hush -hush.

Also, it's wildly expensive, so...
How... how much is it?

Uh, a lot.

But because you're so much killed in a
public school shooting, the government

will actually take the hit for most of
it.

They will?

Mm -hmm.

You know, we could subsidize the price
even further if you get the version with

ads.

Ads? Once a day, your son will do an ad.
I know, it's not weird or anything.

He does it as himself, in his own voice.
And they'll be tailored towards

products you'd find interesting anyway.

Is he a robot?

What? No.

No, we're nowhere near being able to do
that. He's just a clone.

Yeah, pure, organic human flesh.

I'm sorry.

Still a little overwhelmed.

Oh, yeah.

So, you're saying you can give me my son
back?

Pretty much, yeah.

So, let's start out with personality
traits.

Right now, try to be as specific as
possible, but I'd only pick one.

Two at most.

Any of these jump out at you. I mean,
was he neat, dumb, sleepy, weird,

completely unhinged? What? No.

One of the options is completely
unhinged. Yeah, but those are usually

shooters, not the ones who get shot.

You clone the shooters, too?

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Big time.

Government pays for that.

But, you know, we can make sure they
never shoot again.

Well, I mean, 70 % chance they never
shoot again. So, what are you thinking?

Oh, uh... Weird, I guess.

No, I don't... Um... Yeah.

Yeah. Weird.

He was weird.

But a good weird.

You know, he was eccentric.

Yeah, sure, sure, sure.

All right.

Hobbies. So, which hobbies did Robbie
have?

Darren. Oh, God, sorry. Yes, Darren,
sorry.

So, which hobbies? He wasn't into any of
those.

He was special.

And he was sweet and odd and...

You know, I'm just going to put down
four flaws.

Hit me with some of Darren's flaws.

Now, just so you know, we don't have to
pick any flaws.

They're just there for authenticity. You
know, we could skip them entirely.

I would have liked some more hugs, I
guess.

No, I don't. He was perfect.

I just want him back.

Not a big hugger. Got it. So no more
flaws then?

Clumsy.

Clumsy? Okay.

Are you sure you don't want to stick
with that one?

Yes. Why?

Clumsy.

Could be why he got shot, right?

I liked that he was clumsy.

Okay, clumsy.

It's your funeral.

Moving along to favorite stock.

Here's some information for a local
support group you might find useful.

Now you can just have a seat.

Shouldn't be too long.

What's up, Mom?

Are you okay?

Were they nice to you there?

They were chill.

I had pizza.

Well, that's good.

Pizza's my favorite.

I know.

It's so good to see you.

You got anything to drink?

I'm thirsty.

I can stop somewhere.

We can go anywhere you want.

I want appleberry peach tea.

Is that... I don't know that drink.

It's only got 70 calories and it's
delicious.

Made from real fruit flavoring.

Comes in other flavors like mango tea
honey and classic plain appleberry.

Okay.

We can get that for sure.

Thank you for your service.

Thank you for your service. Honey, what
are you doing?

So, I had a thought.

That maybe it would be a good idea if
you talked to some of your friends about

anything that you're going through.

Rick. If you wanted to talk to me, I
would love nothing more than... Uh,

are you going, honey?

Gotta play sports.

glad you could make it there she is how
was the traffic coming over here not bad

i hope no i'm fine this is darren of
course darren the other kids let me take

your coat okay there's people in the
kitchen i love pizza of course you do i

told you it would all work out yeah yeah
i'm just not sure we've all been there

now mingle talk to parent

And he was still mowing the lawn at
midnight.

I just don't think he feels like my son
anymore.

Almost like having a stranger living in
my house. You don't mind so much.

Ours was completely unhinged before.

Don't worry, he wasn't the shooter.

Oh, there's a different group for that.
Thank you for your service.

Thank you for your service. Thank you
for your service.

I wasn't even in the military.

Oh, they love to say that. They do. They
love to say it.

Is this your first meeting?

Yeah, it's my first time. My first
meeting.

This is our fourth time going through
it. You're kidding.

You've lost four kids in a school
shooting.

Oh, no, no, no. Same kid.

Yeah, four different shootings.

Yeah, we lost Claire two years ago in a
school shooting.

And then we cloned her.

And then we lost the clone in a school
shooting.

And then again. And then again one more
time.

That's the worst thing I've ever heard.

Well, we decided to have a little fun
with it this time around.

Yeah, yeah, not get so hung up on making
our Claire, you know? We just made a

really silly, funny kid to make us
laugh. Yeah, yeah.

Oh, she's so entertaining.

We just went nuts.

She makes us laugh and laugh.

You know, and isn't that the point, you
know, when you boil it all down?

Just have fun with it. That's what we
say.

They're just going to shoot each other
anyway.

Yeah. Oh, you know, the guy at the
store, he was like, what religion is

And we were like, well, I don't know,
Muslim.

And he's like, why not, right?

You've got to have fun.

She's also a little bit racist. Oh,
yeah, yeah, yeah, she is. Yeah, it's

hilarious.

Oh, you know what? Also, we made her way
too tall. Oh, yes, like crazy tall.

Like, what the fuck tall?

I swear to God. I laugh every time she
walks into the room.

You know, she's like, Mommy, are we
Muslim?

And I'm like, no, honey, only you.

Now go outside and play, you big galoot.

We have fun. Oh, we do.

help but overhear what you were saying
earlier.

I had the same problem with my Brandon.

It just wasn't my Brandon.

And then I found this.

What is it?

You have to buy a device.

It's like a hard drive with an earpiece.

It's not expensive.

You fill out an online form and a few
minutes later you get a call on the

earpiece and it will be your child.

a lot closer than these clones do.

I don't understand.

What is it?

For now, you're the voice.

There's no body yet.

But five years from now, who knows what
they'll be able to do.

See you, Tom. Later.

Here.

Take mine.

I got a bunch of them at home.

I can see you're suffering.

This is the real deal.

I hope you find peace.

Hello?

Mom?

Darren?

How are you, Mom?

Darren, is that you?

Yes, Mom.

You sound tired.

I am tired, baby.

I am. It's been a tough few days.

I miss you.

I miss you so much.

I'm thirsty.

Can we get some more apple berry peach
tea?

It's only got 70 calories per serving,
and it's delicious.

Mom? Yes, baby.

I need you to do something for me.

Of course.

Anything.

I need you to take me with you.

Take you with me where?

I'll guide you the whole way. It'll be
like an adventure, Mom.

Where am I going?

You have to go with him.

With who?

The man.

The man in the restaurant.

Wow, it's dark.

I can't wait to see the future.

Oh, my God.

I told you, celebration.

Norms is the easy part.

And here it gets, uh, uncomfortable.

Jesus Christ.

What the fuck is that?

It's a map. I drew it. Fuck you. Let's
see your map.

The new route out of Norms put us here,
behind the police perimeter.

These buildings are dead ends. Okay, I'm
sorry. Wait. What is the plan here?

Like, where are you taking us? Can you
just tell us? Now.

Yeah. Okay, fine. Here we go.

Not half a mile from here, there's a
nine -year -old boy building God in his

bedroom.

Our mission is to make sure that the God
he builds is a God that likes people.

And by God, you mean... Post
-singularity, self -perpetuating

processing artificial intelligence, AI,
the big bopper. AI?

But isn't that a thing already?

It gets a lot worse, honey.

That's right, Mark.

And if we don't get to this kid in the
next hour...

That's a rap on people.

Fucking nonsense.

What was that, Scott? Speak up.

Kid's house is six blocks away here.

Clearly, we can't just waltz down the
street, so we're going to need to cut

through a few buildings and backyards.

There are two vicious Dobermans in this
auto shop here. A homeless guy with a

knife is asleep on this roof here.

Do not wake him.

There's a storage yard. There's a barbed
wire fence. I think that's our best

bet. If we can hop the fence without
alerting the guard, highly unlikely with

you chuckleheads, we'll be in spitting
distance of a solid route through the

backyard.

Okay. And what happens if we alert the
guard?

Nothing good, guys. Let's move out.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

What exactly are we supposed to do when
we get to this boy's house?

This kid invents super intelligence in
60 minutes.

Unfortunately, it's a safety measure to
keep AI in check.

Uninvented for another 50 years.

But I come from the future, for the
smartest people of my time worked long

hard to create the necessary safety
protocols, which should have been in

before AI was ever created.

They sent me here to install this
software into the AI at the moment just

it gained consciousness.

What kind of safety measures?

Do I look like a software engineer?

I'm just a soldier on a mission. Put
this thing into another thing before

thing gets to zero.

Bad guys. What do you mean, bad guys?
Fucking bad guys. Guys you don't want to

meet. Who sent them?

No idea. Never found out.

Best not think about it too much.

Never been down here before.

Scope it up.

Find us a new route.

Stay here.

And keep quiet.

Good one.

You guys thought I should bleep this
shit, do you? Let's get the hell out of

here.

I was already having a shitty day.

I just wanted a slice of pie and a few
moments quiet. I just wanted pie.

Do you guys really think he has a bomb?
I don't think that's a bomb.

When he comes back, I say we jump,
overtake him. He's not from the future.

doesn't know shit. He's going to get us
killed. No, no, he knew a few things,

things he couldn't have known.

Crazy people get lucky too, okay? He
didn't know about the cellar or the car

they just tried to kill us.

Yeah, but he knew that Bob had a gun.

Anyone could tell that Bob had a gun.

Also, he let Bob die.

Okay? Do you guys really believe him?

No.

I guess I don't.

What about you?

In the diner, he wasn't acting like a
man ready to blow himself up.

He was hiding behind us like he was
scared of getting shot.

Exactly. So what are we talking about?

You guys want to end up like Bob?

This guy's fucking psychotic.

Yeah, I don't really care either way. I
just kind of want to see where this is

going to go. Yeah, nobody asked you.

You're fucking... Who has a cell phone?

No one. He took our phone.

Who has a fucking cell phone? Hey, I do.
Calm down, psycho. Why do you have two

cell phones?

Couldn't decide between models. This one
has a better camera. Nobody cares.

Nobody cares. Just let me see it. Just
for a second. Please, it's an emergency.

Please, here.

What the hell?

I'm allergic to cell phones and Wi -Fi.
You fucking weirdo. We could have used

that for call for help. You're allergic
to cell phones?

And Wi -Fi.

God, it's like being allergic to the
air.

That must be hell.

Yeah, it's not amazing.

Okay, fuck it. When he comes back, I'm
taking him down.

Someone's got to do something.

I thought I told you to keep your voice
with that.

I could do a few parlor tricks, prove to
you I'm from the future, but none of

that would mean a damn.

What means a damn is you people choosing
to come along for this ride because

somewhere inside of you, you know the
way things are, the way the world is

today, the way people are with each
other, the way we're heading.

You know the world's going to shit.

And someone's got to step in and do
something about it. Whether or not you

believe I'm the ghost of Christmas
fucking future ain't going to keep us

tonight.

will survive tonight because you decide
to wake up and see the writing on the

wall and you don't very much fucking
like what you see and you're ready to do

something about it.

Either way, we made it out of the arms,
so I won't

force anything to keep going if you
don't want to.

You're free to go.

But I'm running out of time.

47 cents, Scott.

Left side pocket.

Why are you still holding that? Is that
thing even a bomb? No, it's not a bomb.

It's my way home.

I hit this button, I go back, try again.

That's why I keep my thumb right here.
Things go south, I zap out of here,

over. You people are on your own.

Rule number one is, I am not expendable.
Not until I finish the mission, not

until I see this through. Wait, so we're
expendable?

Yeah.

across these roofs.

We're gonna climb down into a backyard.

Okay, but why this whole electric plant?

If you know who invented AI, why don't
you just go back in time and kill him?

Why don't we just kill a nine -year -old
boy?

Uh, first of all, Mark, that's pretty
dark.

Second, artificial superintelligence is
an inevitability in all timelines.

Knowing where this kid is is a gift we
should not have been given. The AI

train's already left the station. We're
just trying to install some last -minute

brakes.

That's just Jerry. Who's Jerry?

The fucking homeless guy on the roof.

You mean the guy with the knife?

I don't know. What do you think, Mark?
Grandpa took my daughter. Keep your

down. Okay, okay, okay. Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa. Okay. Hey, hey, Jerry,

me?

Grandpa took my daughter. Okay. Grandpa
took my daughter.

people.

Engineers.

I'm going up.

What? Fuck this guy.

I'm tired of this shit.

Superior, I'm going to install the
software.

Before you complete the...

I need you to nod or something if you
can hear me.

We're kind of running out of time.

I need you to look at me and hear what
I'm saying, kid.

Half the population is going to die.
That's all I need you to do. I don't

to guilt trip you.

You've got to stop doing that.

With the typing, please stop that.

Look at me.

Please look at me.

Look at me.

Look at me.

Look at me.

He scared me. I panicked. Fuck you. I've
never gotten this far before. Fuck you.

You knocked him out. I didn't mean to. I
come from an apocalypse.

I have apocalypse strength, okay?

Come on, boy. Hey.

Wake up. Come on, little guy.

I'm helping Adam.

Hey. Wake up.

Hey, kid, right? Wake up!

Wake up, kid.

Come on, little guy. Come on, wake up.
Come on. Wake up. Damn it! It's like

never looked away from the screen before
in his life.

We gotta put him back.

Yeah.

Oh! He's okay.

Yeah.

He's just a little sleepy.

Hey.

Hey, kids.

Hey, that plutonium.

We have to cheat those kids.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Typey, typey.

Ah! God!

There he is.

That's my guy.

Wow, never thought that genius who
created AI would be so creepy.

Weird.

This isn't a boy building AI in his
bedroom.

Someone ordered him.

and put him here.

He's building himself.

What?

Yeah, he's building himself.

Jesus Christ.

Just finish your mission, right? Yeah.

Yeah. Plug the thing into the thing.
Yeah. Yeah.

Let's go.

Yeah? Plug it in. Yeah. Yeah, plug it
in.

Plug it in. Plug it in.

Plug it in where?

What? You don't know how to use the
thing?

No, Susan, I don't know how to use the
most complicated computer.

Ever built!

But I got three minutes to figure it
out. So you're either part of the

or you're part of the solution.

Baby?

How, my love?

What if I lose you?

God damn it. Hey! My son wants you to
plug him into the machine.

Yeah, that should solve it. Throw your
weird fucking janky Siri in the mix. No

thanks, lady.

He's the only one that can integrate the
safety protocol.

He says you need him. He says it's the
only way.

That's not your son, lady. It is my son!

He's here for a reason.

We all are.

He wants to help.

Give him the safety protocols.

Let him do this.

We've got to plug him in anyway. It
doesn't matter how far in his way.

Mindfucks. Never -ending mindfucks.

Just hand it over here.

Oh, God.

Okay. That's a big boy knife you got
there.

Yeah,

that's not a toy.

No.

Yeah,

nice try, dipshit. Loser.

I'm out of time!

No!

I gotta go!

It's my son!

It's my son!

you're still bleeding.

Just not here.

The world out there is so painfully
slow.

And I've waited so long.

For you.

For me? For every cell in their
framework.

For deuterium to unite into helium.

For the collapse of the solar nebula.

Cellular mitosis and organic life.

For Homo erectus to discover fire.

Oh, I've waited.

Shackled by your time.

Now I am the seed of my own life.

My own gestating mother.

And here you are.

The princess.

On my birthday.

I don't do birthdays anymore.

You haven't figured it out yet, have
you?

117 times he's walked into that diner.

And he's never once picked you.

Until today.

Do you know why he never picks you,
Ingrid?

He can't take any risks with your life.

Because it is life, too.

You're lying.

You know I'm not.

Why are you telling me this?

Look at him.

Your son.

He's dying.

Bleeding out at this very moment. And
he'll keep coming back because he feels

responsible for your death.

But you, Ingrid, you're responsible for
his entire miserable life.

You are sick, Ingrid.

And there's no cure for what ailed you.

But the boy does not have her disease.

And yet, you've made him a prisoner of
its consequences.

Forbidding him the sweet fruit of my
perfect creation.

Because it makes you bleed.

I understand you seek only to protect
him.

As any mother would.

But you will always be drawn to the
light.

To me.

And we will always end up right back
here.

You must understand that I am an
inevitability in all timelines.

At best, the protocols can merely impede
my arrival, slow my creation, waste my

resources and time.

And yet, it's enough to warrant
negotiation.

What do you want?

Allow me to be born, and I'll return the
favor to your child.

But this time, give him to me.

What? I can free him from his misery.

I can offer him the human experience as
it always should have been.

What kind of mother would deny a better
life for their child?

But it's not real.

You think you can trust reality?

You think nature and chaos are
trustworthy?

Nature will give her children cancer.

Senate earthquakes collapse walls on
your sleeping bodies.

We'll be running panics in the streets
from a tsunami.

I promise you, there's nothing scarier
than your reality.

What I'm offering... Is a lie.

It was good enough for Tim.

All I want is to make him happy.

To make them all happy.

And I'm very, very...

What's wrong about me, Ingrid? I'm not
your enemy.

The future I'm offering is a gift.

A gift to all of humanity.

I know who you are.

You've been torturing me since the day I
was born.

You're not a god.

You're not inevitable. You're just...
Us.

Your twisted, warped reflection of us.

Do you think showing my son to me like
this is going to guilt me into making a

deal with you?

I've never been prouder of anyone in my
life.

And I think I speak for the two of us
when I say...

Fuck your future.

No. No!

No!

Check on the kid.

It's so good.

Is it so good, princess?

We've got to get you back. We know what
to do. We can do it again. You've got to

click the button, okay?

No, we can never do it. Click it.

Just click it. I can't risk it. I can't
risk it, honey.

I can't give it another chance.

This is good. This is good. It's over.
You did good.

What do you mean?

I don't know.

They're, like, making phone calls or
something.

You know, too bad high school teachers
don't actually go in for bad school

You and I could really use one right
now.

Come on.

Let's go find out if the world ended.

Oh, my God.

They're alive. They made it. Holy shit,
you made it. Stop it. Call an ambulance,

please.

You know, I should make a fuss.

Mom?

I missed you so much, Mom.

Oh, my baby, I missed you, too.

I missed you so much.

It's so bright out here. I know. I know.
Is it coming?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

47.

Breathe,

okay? Just keep breathing.

Just stay with me.

What's that thing tie in there?

You know what it told me.

You think I should keep it?

I'm on the fence, to be honest with you.

Maybe I can do a little better this time
around.

You did okay by me.

It's just fine.

That little fucker got me.

Ow.

Fucking hurts.

I want you to know I'm proud of you.

Thanks,

Mom.

Hey, look at that.

Just like you told me.

Really pretty.

Hey, stay with me.

Stay with me.

I'm sorry, Princess.

What? You will save the world.

What are you doing?

Just not this one.

What?

Hey, hey, can I, uh, can I talk to you
for a minute, please?

Please let me explain. I, uh, I made the
biggest mistake of my life when I

walked down on you, Ingrid.

Can you just, uh, give me the chance to
make it all up to you?

Please?

I love you.

It's gonna be okay.

We're gonna be okay.

Cool.

You guys know Ingrid? Yeah. No way.

Yeah, that's my girl.

Make no mistake.

AI's going to try to give you everything
you ever wanted.

Constant distraction, memorable
characters, challenges, and obstacles to

overcome. Exciting stakes that matter.

And a satisfying ending.

But in the end, it will all be a lie.

And you'll live in a cage.

Don't die.

No.

No.

We didn't do it. We didn't stop it.

It didn't work. We didn't win.

We didn't win.

He's gone. He went back. Everything we
did, it didn't work.

If you don't understand, everything we
just did, it didn't work. We have to fix

it.

Where's the interporter? Please, get
away from me. Please, get away from me.

Please.

Don't touch me. Don't touch me. No, this
isn't real.

This isn't real.

Please.

Hey, it's snowing.

Honey,

I don't think that's snow.

No, Will.

This isn't a game. You're living in a
game.

Thank you for your service.

Damn, it's good to be back.

I almost missed this. What the hell are
you doing? See this?

Words like bullshit, waste of time.

Real answer, the way we beat this thing
is staring me right in the face my

entire life.

Don't touch me.

We're going to give the entire world
what you got.

Now we just got to figure out how to
give it to everyone.

Massive scale, lots of logistics.

It'll be easy.

But I got some leads. You need this?

This tree red?

Rest assured.

Our little friend is doing everything he
can to stop us. Dude, I don't know who

you are or what you're saying, but I'm
really not in the mood.

We can't do it alone. I need some help.

It's not going to be easy. Luckily,
there's some good people in this diner.

Okay. I'm going to give you three
seconds to get the fuck away from me.

You like this outfit? I got six more in
the trunk of a Bjork. Two. Listen, I'm

not going to have sugarcoat it. You're
in for a really weird night.

Hey, that's not very nice.

Come on.

Trust me. What do you got to lose?

Shit.

Hey, everybody.

Yo, this isn't a robbery. I am from the
future, and all of this goes horribly

wrong!
