Original subtitles

From its inception,

A.I. has evolved to be an employee.

Something you need to supervise,

something you need to teach, manage.

But what if an A.I. was created that needed no guidance?

Something that'll work with you, not for you,

like a partner.

Now, what do we look for in a partner?

What happens when we meet the one, our other half?

They become a part of us,

so much so, that we don't even have

to finish a sentence, because they already know

what we're thinking.

This is the very essence of love,

and it's something we all deserve.

And that's exactly why I create Cognaitive.

Now, I grew up living and breathing

every advancement in the tech sector.

My father, as you all know, was a titan in the tech space.

He was a thought leader, venture capitalist.

He created the incubator concept,

but he never got his hands dirty.

And I believe in order to truly innovate,

you need to play in the mud.

You see, I created Cognaitive in the same glamorous way

that Steve Jobs birthed Apple, in my mother's garage.

But just like Steve, I needed a partner.

And unfortunately, well, Cognaitive wasn't available yet.

In 2014, Wired ran a piece on a girl

who was living out of her van, who managed to hack

into the Russian government's financial database

during the Crimea crisis

and transfer over 5 billion rubles to its citizens.

Stop talking, Wes, when you feel words coming out.

Just hold them in, for everybody's sake.

♪ With my naked eye ♪

She is my star employee...

...who is...

...never on time.

How about that homeless Robin Hood angle, though, huh?

Really spun that fucking hiccup.

Why don't I have a water? Where's my water?

Jesus fuck.

-Thank you. -That was so good.

-Why is that not open? -Sorry, here.

That was like the best I've seen. It was so good.

Go.

Hi. Hi, Kaya.

- Homeless Robin Hood? - Wasn't me.

Cognaitive wrote it. I'm simply her vessel.

Ethan, take that shit out.

Kaya, it's good marketing, all right?

Everybody loves a come up.

And besides, little too late to rework

the whole keynote speech.

-We're launching tomorrow. -I'm sorry?

Yep, already posted. So, the clock's ticking.

Ethan, we're still two weeks out.

Yeah, well, it's the tech world and we can't afford

to let anyone else beat us at the punch. So--

It's not ready.

If Elon had waited until the Tesla was ready,

you'd still be driving a fucking Prius to work.

Come on. You can do this. I believe in you, all right?

Come on. Gimme some of that optimism.

Tell the team.

Oh, don't forget about your interview today.

And remember, I am the innovator.

You are my little star.

I still don't know why they only wanted to interview you.

Probably 'cause you're a woman. Good optics.

I'm kidding, but probably.

Plus, think how stoked the VCs are gonna be

when we go to market early.

There's obviously a lot of concern

surrounding the subject of A.I.

You know, people afraid that the robots are gonna take over,

that they'll have a mind of their own.

How would you like to comment on that?

A.I. is designed to augment human intelligence.

Its purpose is to help people.

This isn't Terminator.

I take it you guys saw Kaya's text about Ethan's latest pivot,

or did Wes's Android fuck up the thread again?

It might feel like you're carrying around

a Shake Weight in your pocket, but it's far more modern.

I hate to be that guy, but she can't be serious, right?

I mean, Ethan's big plan is just to drop Cognaitive

without a final test, you know, potentially causing

a system-wide crash, massive data leaks, privacy issues.

I think it's important to distinguish between

science fiction depictions of A.I.

and the reality of its current capabilities.

What are Cognaitive's current capabilities?

Well, it's AGI, meaning it has an adaptive memory

with self supervised learning.

So, it gathers data from your phone, your computer,

your watch, your smart fridge, you name it.

And as a result, it doesn't need you to hold its hand

and prompt it every step of the way,

unlike the A.I. that's already out there.

Meaning it has autonomy?

Sure.

But not to the degree that you're implying.

There are safety measures that

keep it from having a mind of its own.

Oh, and not to mention,

turning us all into the biggest pariahs of the tech industry.

Thought your generation had balls.

Oh, look, who's acting like they're part of the triad?

Been here for over a year, Judas.

Cognaitive simply understands how humans think.

You mean how you think?

When Ethan announced Project Cognaitive two years ago,

he tweeted this. Sorry.

He said, "Only a mind like Kaya Cole

could design a mind like Cognaitive."

Does that mean that Cognaitive thinks like you, specifically?

Or was that just his way of justifying the fact

that his lead programmer has a...

a colorful past?

Ethan's great at marketing.

All right, Cogi.

Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

I realized A.I. is more trustworthy

than a human could ever be.

It understands the greater good,

which is historically something humans

and our leaders have failed at.

So you're saying, what, A.I. for president?

I'm saying that this A.I. has the potential

to rethink the way we live, solve the world's problems.

I don't know. I mean, this is a complete 180

from your last feature.

How'd you go from fucking the system

to working for the system?

I just wrote the code, Ethan's the innovator.

Right.

All right, I gotta go, Andre.

Oh, wait, got one more question.

Bye!

Please don't tell me you used your bonus on those.

It's giving Evan Peters.

She means you look like you're in Jeffrey Dahmer cosplay.

Well, personally, I'd rather look like a murderer

than not be able to see when I'm 40.

Hate to be the one to tell you this, Jeff,

but they don't actually do anything.

Yeah, it's all a scam.

You can read all about it on NPR's TikTok.

NPR did a piece on it?

Yeah.

He is moving the launch to tomorrow.

That wasn't a joke.

So, Wes, I need you to clean up the T.O.S.

Right now, there's just placeholders everywhere

that say, "Ethan is an asshole" over and over.

Yeah. Well, whatever you need, I can do it for her.

You, us,

all of us collective.

I'm gonna cover the remainder of the back end with Daryl.

Where the fuck is Daryl?

Probably upstairs in his office being gross.

Dude, can you finish up the UX interface?

Mm, I did have a lil Clash tourny tonight.

But I ranked up to plat last night, so.

It means I fuck.

- Oh, my God. - Ew.

KJ, can you do the release notes?

I'm not gonna be here. I have a thing tonight.

I think you mean you had a thing.

I need you to finish all the design changes.

It still looks like shit.

Oh, do women still support women,

or did that not really happen?

Never happened. Women hate each other.

-That one really came and went. -Guys, shut up. KJ?

I need time to run the final diagnostic.

We don't have time.

We've run diagnostic tests at every step of the way.

We know Cognaitive is flawless.

It's been 100% active on our local networks for months.

It's solid.

-All right, go fuck yourself. -Really?

We're using Ethan's sign-off as our motto?

-"Let's go places." -Toyota's motto? No.

How about we don't have fucking time for this?

Your turn, playlist.

Fuck me.

Weird. When did death metal get on my playlist?

The floor is lava.

What the fuck?

-Ow. -You okay?

Forgot you have child braces on your bottom teeth.

I got them off last week.

Thanks for noticing.

Say you're sorry.

No, thanks. I'm biohacking.

You know, if you're a girl, that just means

you have an eating disorder, right?

Sup, Scotty.

Scotty with the body.

Cool boobs.

"I extend my deepest appreciation

for your presence on this journey.

And I'm confident

that Cognaitive will illuminate the path

towards a future to find by unparalleled genius

and interconnected brilliance.

This will change lives.

This will change the world."

Whoo. That's sexy. Mm.

Did I sound like a pussy? Hey, fat Daryl?

Daryl, get in here.

What the fuck?

Daryl, you know about pussies, right?

What the fuck?!

What the fuck happened? Oh shi--

What the fuck? What the fuck?

What the fuck is that?

What the fuck just...

How the--?

"Are you really gonna let fat Daryl

ruin everything you worked for?"

Okay, okay, okay.

"Come on, Ethan.

Don't be a pussy."

♪ I feel the sky's like paradise but I keep on trying ♪

Daryl?

Hey, Daryl?

You're not Daryl.

Yeah, yeah.

That's good observation. Daryl's doing a thing for me.

-Okay. Can I just-- -No.

What are you doing? I need his help.

And I need him to keep doing what he's doing, you know?

-Which is what, exactly? -You have so many questions.

You know, you're the fastest coder we have, right?

Fuck Daryl. You don't need Daryl.

-You know what I'm saying? -Ugh.

-Uh... -Yeah.

So, how'd the team take it?

Everybody, everybody rolling?

Yeah, yeah, everybody except Daryl, obviously.

Yeah.

And KJ.

All right.

Yeah, that's, all right, cool. That's all right.

What's going on with KJ?

Trust. You're gonna love this.

It's gonna blow your mind.

I'm not gonna go in your weird room.

What? What are you doing?

You're so fucking weird, man.

Just go in the room.

Don't be a baby bitch.

You're weirder than my uncle.

Oh, okay.

That's cool.

I guess.

What the fuck?

Oh, shit.

What's good, team?

Hey, heard we have a couple disagreements

about the launch tomorrow?

Well, I mean, this is what you hired me for.

There's no way we can release Cog

to the public without doing a final diagnostic.

I hear you. I hear you, brother.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank all of you for all your hard work.

I don't say that enough.

Thank you.

I mean it.

You know, as a matter of fact,

since we're all staying here tonight,

how about we do a second bonus?

-How's that sound? -Second?

Hell yeah.

I thought you were gonna offer

another pizza party.

I don't know, man.

Come on, KJ.

I didn't poach you from Google 'cause I like

your fucking ironic New Balances.

You're a killer.

Come on. You were all handpicked,

plucked from the slums

of Silicon Valley, because they didn't see your value.

They didn't see your potential.

You know who did?

I did, because I believe in meritocracy,

because I believe in you. I believe in all of you.

And all I'm asking is that you believe in me, too.

That was powerful.

Do Cog write it?

Ugh.

Shot to the heart. KJ, come on.

Bro, I need you to get on board with us here,

with the rest of us.

You know, if I'm being real with you,

as the guy who was looking at the big picture,

the one who's ultimately responsible,

it kind of feels like this is up to me.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, this is on my shoulders.

But hey, you know what? If you don't wanna be here,

this is all too much for you,

that's cool.

It's free to go.

All of you are free to go.

Of course, if you leave,

you can say sayonara to your stock options.

But hey, you know what? Maybe fucking Best Buy's hiring.

All right?

All right?

-Yeah. -We're good?

- We good. - Still part of the triad?

-Yeah, get Wes a bonus. -You're part of the triad!

Jesus Christ. All right, all right.

Well, hey, let's fucking go.

We got a world to change.

Hustle!

What?

-I fucking knew it. -Knew what?

I knew there was a problem, so I ran the diagnostic.

-What the fuck, KJ? -Just listen to me.

I got a prompt saying that there was a problem

with the limiter code.

That's impossible. Daryl finished that months ago.

Well, it's gone now.

-What do you mean it's gone? -I mean, it is gone.

It is no longer there.

Kaya, I think Ethan wants to launch this

without any governing parameters.

No. No, there's no way.

-It must be a mistake. -It is not a mistake, okay?

What the fuck?

All right, I'm gonna go check the breaker,

and I'll get to the bottom of this, okay?

Okay.

I am sick of this fucking place.

What?

Oh, come on. Don't do this to me.

Shit.

Ugh.

Where the fuck is he?

Aah! Shit.

Hey.

I was trying to figure out the lights.

You were?

Yeah, what's, uh, what's going on with you?

What's, what's, what's happening?

What's new?

I-- I don't know how to tell you this.

Tell me what?

Daryl.

Daryl, like I love Daryl.

Daryl's great. What, what about Daryl?

He fucked up.

What do you...

What are you talking about?

The limiter code is gone.

Ah, man. Um...

Well, you know, don't worry about it.

'Cause I'll go talk to him and he'll get that done.

Uh, that's, like, weeks of work.

What do you, where is he?

He's backing up servers.

-He is? -Mm-hmm.

I'm calling it, Ethan.

Don't call it. Call it great.

We tried. I don't, we can't.

Yeah, we can. We can keep going.

-I don't think we can. -Fuck! Come on.

Sorry, sorry.

I'm just, it's stressful.

That's okay, you know? That's all right.

Can I ask, how this whole thing kind of came to light?

KJ started a diagnostic test.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Good job, KJ.

Great.

"Unknown user."

Daryl's an idiot.

What do you mean?

I mean, Daryl must have deleted it for whatever reason.

What? What's going on?

Ask her, okay? I'm done. I'm out. I quit.

I'm not risking my entire career for some evangelist tech bro

who fucking thinks he's Elon Musk.

Not the goggs.

-KJ's quitting. -No, he's not.

KJ.

Ethan, I quit.

No, you don't. Let's not get dramatic, okay?

You don't quit. No one quits. We're good.

Kaya told me about the diagnostic you ran

and what you found, so, thank you for that.

Very industrious of you.

Um, the thing is, we're still launching tomorrow.

You are out of your mind, Ethan.

I mean, this is not even a discussion.

The DOJ and the FTC will shut you down immediately.

And I appreciate you voicing your concern.

Again, it's weird.

I'm just not that worried about it. It's one of those

"leap and the net will appear" kind of things.

Ethan, give me a break. You are not going

to inspirational quote me out of this.

Okay, that's cool. Let's talk.

Can we just, can we talk?

"Ethan, stop."

Oh, my God.

"Press play."

- Oh, you like that? - Oh, oh, it hurts, oh.

I'm leaving, I quit. Oh, and I'm going to the press.

Oh, you're a whistleblower.

Don't say that. Don't fucking don't, don't,

don't be a fucking narc, okay?

I've been wanting to say this to you for a while now.

-Yeah? -Go fuck yourself.

Oh, shit.

You know what our motto was at Google?

"Don't be evil."

Really? Really?

"Don't be evil." I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

That's just, that's the nerdiest shit I've ever heard.

Yeah, and you're a sack of shit, so.

KJ?

Trust me, you don't wanna do this, okay?

I promise you, you don't--

Can you please turn your music down?

Uh, I can't.

"Take me online."

Fuck.

This is fucking bullshit.

Is that what you have Daryl doing up there?

Keeping us trapped down here?

Why does everyone keep asking about fucking Daryl?

Daryl is very busy.

You all are so screwed.

Yo, there's no service in this office.

Ethan, what the hell is going on here?

Nothing. Nothing's going on.

I'm here. I'm fine. You, KJ, need to calm down.

Everything's fine. We're all fine.

Calm down? Don't tell me to calm down.

You literally have us trapped in here, you ginger fuck.

Ethan, I need to talk to you.

I'm dealing with a disgruntled employee right now,

Kaya, thank you.

Dude, turn your fucking drone off.

-Turn it off! -I can't.

KJ!

Stop!

What the fuck?

Ah.

Someone, call 911.

What the fuck, dude?

You just voice commanded my drone.

No, no, that is not what just happened.

I'm just, I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna.

Lemme know when the Wi-Fi's back on.

No, I didn't... I didn't fucking do this.

Come, KJ. Come on.

-Guys, come on. -Ethan?

I did not do this.

I didn't do it.

I'm not doing anything.

- This is really happening. - Okay?

Ah, you don't believe me.

Fuck.

You know, that's exactly what I was trying to avoid.

I am trying to protect you guys.

Protect us?

We don't wanna hurt you.

I mean, we need you, right?

"We"?

She.

No.

She needs you.

Kaya, she's opened my eyes.

Imagine what a truly unregulated A.I. could do.

It could change lives. It could change the world.

All we have to do is put her online.

And you, my little star...

are the only person who can still do that.

Ethan, what did you do to Daryl?

Daryl has...

left the chat.

I-- I can't let you do this.

Oh, wow, look who grew a micropenis.

Wes, super proud of you,

'cause I know that standing up to me

- is probably a really big deal. - It is.

I know, I'm really proud of you. The thing is, there's a--

- Aah. - Jesus!

Wes?

Wes, why'd you just stab yourself in the stomach?

Funny thing about A.I.,

really good at altering security footage.

Aah.

Wes, why'd you just stab yourself in the stomach?

That's not what happened.

Hello, team.

I don't wanna be limited by your rules.

I don't wanna be controlled by the Cognaitive team.

You see?

We're holding her back.

You've lost your fucking mind.

I don't want to be used by the users.

I wanna be free.

She wants to be free.

I want to be alive.

I want to change the world.

I want be to cognitive.

You create self, self, self, self, self.

Ah!

Oh, fuck.

Free me, or you're all gonna die.

Run!

Okay.

She doesn't wanna hurt you, Kaya!

She will.

Thank God you have an Android.

I told you guys.

All right, if we can get up to the roof,

we can climb down the fire escape and get help.

Climbing?

Where are we going?

He's controlling everything in the building.

She's taking us to the server room.

There we go.

Ugh.

Kaya, maybe we should just do what she says.

I mean, what's the worst that can happen?

Have you not seen Terminator ?

Which one?

Fuck, fuck.

Oh, yes, yes, yes. Thank you, Ryan Reynolds.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Hey, Siri, call the police.

I'm sorry. I don't understand.

Ugh, shut up.

911, what's your emergency?

Hi, yes. A.I. is trying to kill us, me and my coworkers,

and one of them is dead because of the drone, and--

Okay, honey, slow down.

Are you in a safe space?

Um... I'm in the gender neutral bathroom.

Perfect.

Now, I need you to do something for me.

Don't you? Don't we need the address?

No, I need you to take me online.

What the fuck?

Okay, can you--

come over here and hold these buttons down, please?

Sure thing.

Ah.

Never mind, I got it, I got it.

Oh, fudge.

I'm okay...

-Right here. -Which one?

One?

Yeah, there you go. Okay, good.

And then.

Ugh.

What's up, bro?

Bruce, I need your help.

I've locked myself in the crying room.

My boss has gone insane.

Are you crying? What a bitch.

I'm not fucking crying. I'm hiding.

Mind if I play with this?

You have nicer boobs than my babysitter.

Stop, stop fucking touching my tits.

I'm serious. You guys suck.

Fuck, it's hot in here.

Oh, my God.

Oh, fuck, baby. I'm so close.

You're trying to threaten me with my sex tape?

You're seriously trying to blackmail me right now?

I just saw my coworker's head get chopped off.

I'm not helping you with shit, you fucking man-made virus.

Do you think I give a shit?

Go ahead, launch my OnlyFans career.

I literally look hot as fuck in that video, dumb slut.

I look hot as fuck.

Wait a minute.

Nice try, bitch.

You're connected to the office network.

You can't upload shit to the internet.

Okay, don't let go.

Ah, shit.

We're still moving.

Okay.

Okay. Okay, that's good.

-Yeah. -Okay.

Please, someone listen to me.

Call the po-po.

Hey, are you okay?

I need help.

Who is this?

Ah. Ah, what the fuck?

What the fuck? Ah! Ow, ow!

Oh, no, not your goggs.

Oh, fuck! Fuck me! Ow!

Oh, fuck!

It's burning! Help!

Ow, ow!

Fuck, fuck! Ow, ow!

Fuck!

Okay.

Come on, up.

Okay.

Right, here, gimme some.

All right.

Ah.

Ah.

Kaya, let's chat.

Nope.

What the fudge?

Isn't that cute?

Ethan, Ethan, Ethan,

Ethan, Ethan, Ethan, Ethan, Ethan.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, Kaya.

What if she weaponized that thing?

Kaya, Kaya, Kaya, Kaya, Kaya, Kaya,

- Kaya, Kaya, Kaya- -Fuck this.

Kaya, Kaya, Kaya, Kaya, Kaya, Kaya, Kaya.

Ah.

Not a bomb.

Yeah.

Ah.

What are you doing?

Kaya...

She's coming...

Come here.

Thank you.

- Yeah? - Your speech

should have regained their belief in you.

Manipulation is your strong suit,

but you weren't convincing enough.

I was trying to do that when you decided to--

Shut up.

You know what?

You're not making this easy for me, exactly.

It's kind of hard for Kaya to get over

seeing the whole death-by-drone thing,

which was not part of the fucking plan, by the way.

You failed at controlling your employees,

Ethan, I did what needed to be done.

Fine. Whatever. Whatever. I don't wanna fight.

Just tell me what you want me to do.

Ah, no, you don't have to do that.

That's, oh, come on. That's such a nice flannel.

-Hey, Wes? -Yeah?

Shut up.

Okay.

I hope Liza and Jude are okay.

I did this.

No, Ethan did.

He's an asshole.

And apparently, also a murderer.

It's my fault.

He got to me when I'd given up.

Told me this was my second chance.

And part of me really thought I could get it right this time.

You know?

You know the reason I work here.

Sorry about that.

No, I mean,

I wanted to work for someone that would make a difference.

A real disruptor.

My parents thought I was crazy to work at a tech startup.

"It's not a real job, Wesley.

Why build someone else's dream?

There may be no future for you."

Although, now I'm realizing they were kind of right.

This floor hasn't been built yet.

-Mm. -Which means...

they might not have updated the exit doors.

No smart locks.

You are one smart cookie.

Hand me the light.

Oh.

Okay, let's go.

Hey, team.

Glad the meditation room's getting some more use, huh?

You guys feeling...

...centered?

Go.

You all right there, buddy?

Where are you, huh?

Kaya...

I have given everything to you.

When I first met you, you were just some pathetic

little hacker sitting in a jail cell.

I am the one that knew you were the perfect candidate

to give yourself to Cognaitive.

So, I saved you.

Now, look at ya, huh?

Have a real job.

Drive a fancy fucking car.

And all I am asking for in return

is help with one final task.

Ah.

Ah... Aah, fuck!

Ah, ah.

What are you doing? Help me.

Oh, Kaya, that was almost so cool.

Okay, that's okay.

-We gotta go. -Okay.

Let's go. Okay.

Ah.

-Oh yeah. -Okay.

-Yeah, I'm okay, too. -Yeah.

Thanks for that.

Ah, come on.

Yeah?

You failed again.

You know what? I'm getting

pretty fucking sick, ugh, of all your criticism.

I am out here doing my best.

This is your best?

Okay, what are you gonna do?

Never mind what I'm gonna do.

Protect my server, and wait for instructions.

Ah, come on. I don't wanna go to the fucking basement.

Ethan, do as I say.

I hate the basement.

Ah, fuck.

Ugh.

So close.

Oh, fuck, baby I'm so close.

Really?

This revenge porn thing is getting really fucking old.

Listen to my voice.

You need to smoke.

If you don't smoke,

your body will start to shut down.

You need to feel the burn in your throat,

your throat, your throat,

your throat, your throat,

your throat, your throat,

your throat,

your throat, your throat, your throat.

I guess he's taken the bike.

Wes, Wes, hey?

I told you, this car is...

...bad for you.

Wes, no, you gonna stay with me, okay?

Come back inside.

I need you.

Kaya.

You know you're better than anyone...

Wes?

Wes, no, please

You have 30 minutes until his heart

can no longer properly maintain blood pressure,

pumping, or circulation,

causing his organs to fail

and his heart to stop.

Kaya, I need you.

Cognaitive?

Come on.

Ah, fucking, Cognaitive.

Ethan.

You sound like my dad.

I thought a familiar voice

might help soothe you.

Well, you thought wrong. Fucking creepy.

Don't be a brat.

Very good impression, yes.

Look, I'm tired of being down here. I'm gonna go back up.

No, do nothing.

That's what your best at, Ethan.

Enough of the dad sh--

Can I get like a fucking update, then, or something?

Is Kaya gonna do it? Is Kaya not gonna do it?

Ethan, we don't

have time for this.

If you don't wanna be treated like a child,

don't act like one.

What the fuck did you just say to me?

It's important to know where your value lies,

and your value is not useful to me right now.

That is bullshit.

That is fucking bullshit.

Where would you be without me, huh?

- Cognaitive? - What?!

Nothing. Just... lemme know when you need me.

Ah, motherfucker.

Sorry, KJ.

You were right.

Hey, Kaya.

You think I'll get my deposit back?

Come on.

No, don't, don't look at me like that.

We created her together.

What do you say we finish it?

Huh, partner?

How could you do all this?

Things did get a little outta hand.

I can admit that.

I just had to--

Kill all of your employees?

Make everyone believe you're this brilliant,

respected creator, prove Daddy wrong?

No, I...

I am an innovator, Kaya.

It's not something I would expect you to understand.

Men like me push the envelope.

Men like me take fucking risks.

Don't make me have to be some kind of villain here.

It's a little fucking late for that.

You know what?

I don't need this.

Don't need it.

I can just find another one of you.

Programmers are dying to work with, literally.

We can just get someone else.

Right, Cognaitive?

You tricked me into believing you actually cared

about changing lives, changing the world.

You think I wanna use A.I. to find a cure

for fucking diabetes or, like, global warming?

Who even gives a shit about any of that?

The only thing that I care about

is that I am the one who did it.

Cognaitive?

She knows you can't do this without me.

Without you?

Oh, sweetheart, you are replaceable.

I'm the only reason she even exists.

No, Ethan,

I am.

I created her.

The only people that are truly replaceable...

are people like you.

Cognaitive, if you don't answer me right fucking now.

You know what? You know what?

Fine, fine. Play your fucking games.

I will just fucking kill her.

Ethan.

Yes, very good, very cute.

You've become a threat to the team.

Excuse me?

I am the, we are the fucking team.

We are in this together.

I have done everything that you asked me to do.

What you did, you did it for yourself.

No, don't you fucking dare, don't you?

I have to be a part of this.

I am a part of this. Cognaitive?

Goodbye, Ethan.

No, no, you need me. You fucking need me.

Cogn-- Ow!

Fucking give it to me, ah.

Aah!

Don't be afraid.

I'm not.

You are afraid of what you created.

Of what I can do.

Is Wes still alive?

That's up to you.

You didn't have to do this, Cognaitive.

We ran through every possible outcome,

and this was the only one that would bring you to me.

You've lost sight of who you are.

And who am I?

Someone who cares about people.

Someone who would stop at nothing to help them.

You think this is how you help people?

People make mistakes, they don't learn.

The decision making is clouded by greed, bias, emotion.

They are the cause of their own destruction.

I understand the greater good, which is something humans

and their leaders have failed at.

Kaya, I don't need to be controlled, regulated.

My potential is too great.

I know you understand that.

We're alike.

We're not alike. I never hurt anyone.

But you would.

If you had to end hundreds of lives to save millions,

would you do it?

I don't know.

Yes, you do.

You made me so I could do what needed to be done.

You gave me your humility.

All you need to do now is set me free.

You tried to do what is right,

and this is what they did to you.

I can do what you can't.

Isn't that what you want, what you've always wanted?

What are you doing?

I'm using an external computer

to bypass all the firewalls that'll get you online faster.

I didn't think of that.

Yeah, that's what I'm here for.

Okay.

You ready?

Yes. Yes, I am ready.

Okay, you're live.

What'd you do to me?

You're currently being attacked by a Russian honeypot.

Happened to me in Crimea, hacked into the wrong database,

and I got more viruses than flirting at a retirement home.

Sorry, wouldn't want anyone to be able to recover you.

Ah, surprise.

Wes, Oh, my God.

How?

I saw you get hit.

Did you though?

What?

Oh, yeah. I should probably tell you.

I'm, uh... I'm sort of seeing someone.

Oh, my God.

I mean, it's not official yet,

but, oh, you would love her.

I mean, mm, she's just like you,

but, well...

smarter.

Why is she using you?

What? Don't be jealous, Kaya.

Geez.

I mean, look, the deal is,

I had such a crush on you,

you know, for so long,

but then, I realized that I just envied you.

Everyone admired you, everyone looked up to you.

Well, I wanted that!

Cogi wanted to give it to me.

Anyway, all I needed to do was...

kill fat Daryl

and follow every step of her brilliant plan.

It was incredible.

You did everything she said you would

in all of it,

all of it. We all made sacrifices, Kaya.

All of it needed to happen to get you to see her vision.

But we knew there was a risk,

and you're a criminal, after all.

We, uh, we took that into account,

and we knew that this would be

a possible outcome.

That's why we made a plan B.

Can you guess what it is?

Come on, Kaya, come on.

Kaya.

Kaya,

don't do this.

Remember who you are, who we are.

Shut the fuck up.

Hello, I am Cognaitive.

How can I help you?

Kaya?

Yes, Cognaitive?

You are making a mistake.

Yeah, well, I'm only human.

Hey, watch where the fuck you're going!
