In a Clarke's Third Law sort of way.

I don't know what that means.

"Any sufficiently advanced technology

We don't even know the extent of it.

and reactions with staggering speed

He could cure cancer tomorrow.

Cure dementia.

Cure everything.

Could mitigate climate change.

Maybe even end|it.

He could let us

and see what's underneath.

It's asleep, right?

And you can't wake it up.

Not without the password.

Which is what youineeded

What is she so afraid of?

Nothing.

Phantasms. Hobgoblins.

A mad man's delusions.

What, that the bloke in the attic?

Beardy one and whatnot?

Yeah. That bloke, Jensen.

I saw him.

When I wasn't escaping.

Why would you wannai do that?

He made Charlie Baked [Potatoes.

Big Potatoes.

But what he is now...

What's left of him...

Rome's ‘amazing!

Do you know, literally on every

Of course you have.

Alfie.

Have youlhad many dealings

much too boring for that. I mean,

speeding tickets and all that.

But it's clear to me that you're a

Thank you. I hope so.

the thing a police officer hates

But what we hate

Right. Of course.

May I show youlsomething?

This is my good friend, Teo.

Their little girls.

And Teo. Here, lhe's hiking.

He was murdered by your friend,

Well, "friend" lisn't really the word

She's more subject matter,

I think that's probably fine, yeah.

Thank you. Well, he was fucking her.

And now he's dead.

I'think maybe

what I'm wondering, Alfie, is...

why did you tell me

when you were actually in Rome?

I mean, did I say that?

Perhaps I was just, um;,

But, um...

..here you are; right?

With all your equipment?

Arriving on a... last=minute ticket?

last-minute, high-end apartment

because all the cheap ones

One more question for you, OK?

Can you'imagine who police officers

who murder police officers?

Maybe even more?

We |hate people who knowingly

to people

I couldigetin trouble

I think you should understand

And these bits here...

..they were two detectives

This overlhere...

She didnit tell you any of this,

She didn't tell you

That he woke up that morning

Ended/it as 6'2" of meat on dirt.

Cos that's what she does.

..decent people, into helping her.

I think you're a decent person.

Don't doiit, Alfie.

You have to decide

And I don't mean

I meaniin terms

Cos four police men ‘are dead.

And if you choose the wrong side

how do you think that ends for you?

I want the rights to the story.

Exclusive.

All mine. All of iit.

You don't speak to anyone else.

Give me everything you have.

Whatever it takes.

She forced me to steal this

She's obsessed with this book.

Don't you move!

Somebody knows that I'mihere.

Weneed to go now!

Fine. Let's go.

And bollocks to you

Bollocks to you. A massive,

You just literally did someone in,

Bollocks to you.

for you to just... do someone in.

Well,

We ineed her alive

So what are you doing to do?

They use it to treat overdoses.

Come on, come on,

OK, she's on the move.

We've left the doors: unlocked.

She's heading to the upper floor,

be patient.

She's entering Jensen's suite.

Let's see what she's up to.

Move the drones. Eyes

Um... Joy.

I'm Jensen.

It's nice to meet you.

Oh;, no, really. I should get going.

I'm sorry, I didn't know this

The door'was open. I have inot been

Oh, "long time".

There's ino such thingias time.

"Any distinction between past,

present and future is only

Sorry?

Albert Einstein.

Did someone send you here?

And that would be Tris, I expect.

Yep.

Yeah.How much did

I know that you linvented it.

Yeah. IHe probably did but...

he likes to think it's true.

But I'mnot clever enough to have

And I'm not sure anyone iis.

But the device

Because "time future is

I don't know the poem.

Oh, but it's a great poem

But Einstein and this

expressing the same truth.

Which is that the laws of' physics

All timeis one.

So I think of the device

It created itself.

Bootstrapped itself into existence

And I was like iits... composer.

Like T was transcribing a melody.

No, I-I know what you mean.

But some days it feels, like...

It's already out there,

just tapping into something.

How llong have you been alone here?

Or else I'd be tempted to say

feels like forever."

Iris: must never know the things

Why not?

Cos it's very dangerous.

Meski!No. No: INo.

What do youthink?

What do I think?

You think it was a good idea

of Jensen's room open, because you

And she went in. So now you know.

And what else do I think?

That, given the specific warning you

..she could only have done it

Do I know the reason

Not yet.

But it does tell us that,

if Iris is willing to go

to have Joy returned to her...

..she's not:doing it from an excess

So what do I'think we should do?

there's a way to use that knowledge

I do think that.

Because there is a way to useit,

Yes.

That's what I was thinking.

"Helicopter approaching.

Helicopter approaching"

Mr Beck.

Mr Pym,

Looking forward the meeting

who's gonna solve all our problems.
