Scanners - Limited Edition 1981 English

Will you look at that fellow over there?

I've never seen anything
so disgusting in all my life.

I'll tell you something. He's staring.

I think he's looking at us.

- I think we're being picked up.
- Oh, it's too awful.

Can you believe it?

I don't know how they can let
creatures like that in here.

- Really! It's...
- [BUZZING]

[SHUDDERS]

[CRIES OUT]

What's the matter, hm?

Oh, help, someone! Please?

- Please, please, come and help.
- [BUZZING CONTINUES]

[SPEECH INAUDIBLE]

[HIGH-PITCHED SQUEAL]

Ma'am, she's going to be all right.
It's all right. Step back, give her air.

Agh!

[ATONAL MUSIC]

[SHOPPERS GASP]

Damn it!

[FOOTSTEPS]

You're 35 years old, Mr Vale.

Why are you such a derelict...

such a piece of human junk?

The answer's simple.

You're a scanner

but you don't realise.

And that has been the source
of all your agony.

But I will show you now...

that it can be a source of great power.

Let them in.

[HEAVY FOOTSTEPS]

WOMAN: Not much of a place, is it?

Still, we're getting paid for it, so...

[DIFFERENT VOICES]

[CHATTING CONTINUES]

Hurry up!

[VOICES GETTING LOUDER]

Hurry UP!

[VOICES STOP]

[VOICES MURMURING]

[SPEECH DISTORTED]

[INDISTINCT MURMURING CONTINUES]

[VOICES STOP]

We can talk now.

I would like to scan all of you
in this room, one at a time.

I must remind you that the scanning
experience is usually a painful one.

Sometimes resulting in nosebleeds,
earaches, stomach cramps, nausea.

Sometimes other symptoms
of a similar nature.

There's a doctor present, Doctor Gatineau.

I know that you've all been
prepared for this

but I thought I'd just remind you
just the same.

There is one other thing.

No one is to leave this room
once the demonstration has begun.

At this point I'd like to call
for volunteers.

Anyone. Doesn't matter.

Fine.

Just... sit right here, please.

Now, I'd like you to think of
something specific.

Something that will not breach
the security of your organisation

and that you will not object to having
disclosed to this group.

- Something personal perhaps.
- All right.

Yes, I have something.

- Do I have to close my eyes?
- Doesn't matter.

All right, yes. I have something.

[WHIRRING]

[HIGH-PITCHED SQUEAK]

[RATTLING]

[RATTLING]

[SCREAMING]

Move everybody out now.

Call ConSec leader.

I want you to come with me.

- I didn't do anything.
- I said I want you to come with me.

Come on.

Gatineau, come with us.

[AUDIENCE STILL CRYING]

Down there! Quick!

Move it!

Get down.

Give him a shot of Ephemerol.

Come on!

OK.

[THUNDER ROLLS]

Take it easy. All we need is
to get stopped by a cop.

Ah, it'd serve them right. Why the hell do
they have to send us to the old factory?

If this guy's a scanner,
they don't want him down at Central.

They're afraid of him.

He's a scanner.

Hey, where's Security Two?

It's moving out fast on the left.

Hey, man, what's happening?

Ray, what the hell's the matter
with you?

[RATTLING]

You gotta pull back behind him, man.

Come on!

Ray, I'm gonna kill you
if you don't do it.

Ray!

Oh my God!

Don't stop! Move it!

No. We gotta get him outta there.

[ARGUING]

Get 'em.

[RATTLING]

Let's get outta here, man. Come on!

- You wanna get us killed?
- All right, all right, calm down.

Last night...

we at ConSec chose to reveal
to the outside world

our work with those telepathic curiosities
known as scanners.

The result...

six corpses...

and a substantial loss in credibility
for our organisation.

So this morning we have a new
director of Internal Security...

- Mr Braedon Keller.
- Thank you.

Mr Trevellyan, gentlemen...

we're in the business of
international security.

We deal in weaponry and private armies.

We do not trade in fantasy
and pipe dreams.

Let us leave the development of
dolphins and freaks

as weapons of espionage to others.

Now, with all due respect to Dr Paul Ruth,

I recommend that we drop our scanner
programme immediately, sir.

[TREVELLYAN] Hm? Dr Ruth,
what's your response?

Mr Keller, who composed
our audience last night?

We had 25 financial and political VIPs
from all over North America.

Were these VIPs carefully screened?

The screening process used was
very sophisticated, yes.

And yet an assassin managed
to infiltrate this group.

Yes.

And kill six of our people.

Yes.

How did he kill them?

We have reason to believe he...

used scanning techniques.

Then do you suggest, Mr Keller,

that this highly skilled assassin,
very deadly,

who embarrassed us all in front of the
community we were trying to impress,

was himself a scanner?

We believe so, yes.

Well, that, gentlemen, is my response.

The weapons capability of
these telepathic...

Curiosities.

Is obvious.

KELLER: If I may?

Doctor.

Your programme is based on a list of
236 known scanners, is it not?

It is.

Of that number...

Of that number, how many are
now working with us?

As of last night, none.

Well then.

We don't even have a programme
to drop, do we?

It shouldn't be very painful for anyone.

ConSec surveillance has gradually lost
contact with all the names on our list

and I submit that this is not an accident.

I think we've lost them to a programme
far in advance of ours.

[ALL TALKING AT ONCE]

I think you might elaborate, Dr Ruth.

In my study of the situation,
I've come up with the conclusion

that there is a scanner underground
developed in North America.

It has an organisation,
it's well motivated...

- and it has a leader.
- That's ridiculous, Doctor.

You can't get two of them to sit in the
same room together without going berserk.

You're making a very provocative
allegation, Dr Ruth.

Who controls this group?

If you studied the descriptions
in this report,

you will find that you probably
met him last night.

His name is Darryl Revok.

- And he was on our list.
- This is total fiction.

- Mr Trevellyan...
- [ALL MUTTERING]

A moment, Mr Keller.
What do you suggest, Doctor?

Eliminate the competition.

How?

Contact a scanner who is as yet
unknown to the underground,

convert him to our cause

and then send him out...
to infiltrate the underground.

Convert him, Doctor? How?

They're all pathetic unsocial misfits.
Unstable, unreliable...

That is because their unique gifts
are not understood, Mr Keller.

There is one point about which
there is no doubt at all,

and that is that ConSec was attacked.

For our own peace of mind,
we have to retaliate in some way.

And I think Dr Ruth's suggestion
is a very interesting one.

Except that...

we don't have any scanners left
to send into the field.

As a matter of fact...

I do have one still unaffiliated.

A very special one.

I don't suppose you speak much.

No.

It's not surprising.

With all those other voices in your head,
how can you hear your own voice?

How can you develop a self personality?

How do you feel?

I feel...

crystal clear.

How do you like it? Clarity?

I'm not sure.

I think I'm a bit afraid.

Why?

I feel so exposed.

I can hear myself.

You hear your own voice?

- Yes.
- Good.

You called me a scanner.

What is that?

Freak of nature,

born with a certain form of ESP.

The derangement of the synapses...

which we call telepathy.

Could be a disease, possibly.

Or a result of radiation.
We don't really know why.

Who are you?

My name is Dr Paul Ruth.

I'm a psycho pharmacist by trade,
specialising in the phenomenon...

of scanners.

The woman in the shopping mall.
What were you doing to her?

I wasn't doing anything to her.

It was her.

She was...

forcing me...

To what?

To think about her.

The 5O people that were in this room.
They appeared to disturb you.

Why was that?

They talked too loud.

- They talked and they talked.
- Really?

I didn't see their lips move. Did you?

No, it was the other voices.
The ones without lips.

They were drowning me.

I couldn't stop them.

The injection I gave you with the needle.

What happened to the voices?

They stopped.

The drug is called Ephemerol.

It's a scan suppressant.

It does nothing when it's given to
ordinary human beings

but when given to a scanner,
it prevents the flow of telepathy.

It stops the voices.

It can help you.

How do you know these things?

It's my profession.

This is Mr Keller.

Will my car be ready this evening?

Tell us what you did, please, Darryl.

I drilled a hole in my head.

- Where?
- It's kind of obvious, isn't it?

Right here.

Why did you do it, Darryl?
Why did you drill the hole?

Too much pressure.

It's the pressure.

You wanted to block the pressure out?
To let something out of your head?

[LAUGHING]
Lilian's so smart.

Can't get anything past Lilian.

You wanted to let something
out of your head?

A-huh.

What?

People.

There are people in my head.
Not enough room for Darryl.

You mean voices?

No, whole people.

Arms, legs, hands.

What's that you've put over the hole?

It's a door.

Put an eye on the door so they won't know
it's a door and they can't get back in

cos they'll see the eye, you know.

You think that will fool them?

Sure. Sure.

I mean, sure, you know.

- I mean if that's the only way...
- No!

What do you know?

You don't know nothing, do you?

You wanna see how they get in, hey, lady?

You wanna see how they get in?

[SHOUTS]

- Darryl...
- Get your hands off me.

Get off! Get your hands off me!

Get your hands off me!

[THUNDER ROLLS]

That's me, isn't it?

As you were...

without Ephemerol, without guidance.

Is he still like that?

- [THUNDER ROLLS]
- Worse.

How could he be?

At the age of 22,
he was extremely self destructive.

Now, at the age of 35,
he is simply destructive.

In many ways, Cameron, it is your enemy

and mine.

But I don't even know him.

He... knows you.

Somehow he was able to gather
a master list

of all the scanners who were ever born.

He has sought them out one by one,
asked them to join him

in an insane crusade to destroy
the society that created him.

And me?

He was looking for you but I found
you first. That's why you can help me.

I don't understand.

All the scanners who didn't agree
to join him were murdered.

These murders represent a loss to mankind

of the most spectacular human beings
that ever walked the face of this planet.

You, Cameron, your brothers and sisters,

can bring a glory and a brilliance to our
society that has never been seen before.

We must stop Revok... now.

[WHISTLE BLOWN]

ConSec are not ready to give up
their programme.

Paul Ruth came up with a secret weapon.

What?

Someone you've been looking for, I think.

Scanner. Calls himself Cameron Vale.

I've seen him.

And Ruth knew exactly where to find him.

He's in indoctrination right now.

Can he do anything?
What kind of shape is he in?

He seems to function.

But he's nothing to worry about.

He's weak.

Very weak.

Welcome to our little psychic gymnasium.

Cameron Vale.

And please meet yoga master
Dieter Tautz.

Mr Tautz has kindly consented to be
your psychic sparring partner.

He has publicly demonstrated
on many occasions

by the power of his will
he can control his heart rate,

his alpha wave rhythm

and many other supposedly uncontrollable
functions of the human body.

- Are we ready?
- Just about.

Proceed.

If you would be kind enough to sit
facing this gentleman here.

I want you...

I want you to... slowly release your scan,

slowly with focus.

I want it to touch his heart.

Not his brain, understand?

Telepathy is not mind reading.

It is the direct linking

of two nerved systems separated by space.

I want you to make a link...

from your brain

to his heart.

I want your brain to make his heart...

beat faster.

Now, if his heart beats too quickly...

then he will take over
control of his heart.

He'll slow it down.

Don't worry about it.

All you have to do...

is make his heart beat faster.

Fast.

- [MACHINE BEEPS]
- Fast.

Fast.

Fast.

Fast

- [BEEPING GETS HIGHER]
- Fast

[HEARTBEAT MUCH FASTER]

[FAST BEEPING]

[CRIES OUT]

End your scan.

End it!

Stop him!

- End it!
- I want to live.

End it.

[BEEPING SLOWS DOWN]

You were right, Dr Ruth.

It was easy.

This man's name is Benjamin Pierce.

These photographs were taken in a prison
for the criminally insane.

There's another one.

This is a plaster cast of him at present
on display in the Crostic Art Gallery.

He's our only lead.

A known scanner who may or may not
be part of Revok's underground.

Why was he in prison?

He tried to kill his entire family.

His father, sister, mother.

At the age of ten.

It was in 1958.

A few years later he was released...

Well, they say here.

Er...

Rehabilitation through art.

The man has incredible power, doesn't he?

Power?

Oh, yes, he does.

I am Arno Crostic.

I am pleased you came to my gallery.

Are you an aficionado of Benjamin Pierce?

I'm interested in buying this piece
for my apartment in Paris.

Yes.

But I don't think it'll work out unless
I can get to meet the artist first.

I'm afraid no.

I hope it won't prejudice you
against acquiring this piece

but I would lose Benjamin Pierce for good

if I even approached him with the idea.

You see, it's part of our agreement.

He will not meet his public.

Maybe you could just tell me
where he lives.

Then I could approach him myself

and you wouldn't be involved.

I'm afraid I can't.

Then maybe you could just...

think about where he lives.

Excuse me.

I'm suddenly feeling ill.

Arno, what's the matter?

- Are you all right?
- I will be all right.

Come on, Arno, I'll take you back to
your office. You gotta lie down.

That's it. Take my arm.

[HIGH-PITCHED SQUEAKING]

Benjamin Pierce?

Why don't you leave me alone?

I need some help. You're the only one
that can give it to me.

Is that right? Me?

Yes.

[SHRILL LAUGHING]

Then I think you're in big trouble, chum.

I've heard you know a man
named Darryl Revok.

Who are you?

I was told you were coming
to pay me a visit, Mr Vale.

How did you know that?

How did I know that? Well...

I have friends.

I don't want them

but I have them.

Scanner friends?

What do you mean by that?

I am one of you.

You're one of me.

Yes.

You know what I think?

I think you'd better tell me
what you really want.

It's the voices in my head.

They're driving me crazy.

How do you stop them?

Your voices?

My art...

My art keeps me sane.

My art.

Sane.

I don't have anything like this.

That's why I have to find Darryl Revok.

You, my friend...

are a liar.

- Get out.
- Look...

I'm not leaving here until you tell me
where I can find Darryl Revok.

No?

All right.

Well, then, I'll get out.

[GUN LOADING]

[HE SCREAMS]

No!

[WHIRRING]

[DISTORTED VOICE] Find Revok.

Find Revok. These are his robots.

Killers.

He'll turn you into a zombie,

a robot, a killer.

Find Revok.
There are others.

Other scanners.

Kim Obrist. Kim Obrist.

Kim Obrist.

Good evening, sir. Can I help you?

Are there any messages for me?

Your name, sir?

Cameron Vale.

- Your room number?
- 802.

Yes, this package is for you, sir.

[VOICES MINGLE]

[VOICES FADE]

My name is Cameron Vale.
I've got to talk to Kim Obrist.

Come on in.

[HIGH-PITCHED SQUEAK]

Oh God!

They killed Ben Pierce.

Yes.

Come on upstairs.

Just wait here a second.

Kim.

Revok got to Ben Pierce. He's dead.

This guy's name is Cameron Vale.
I've scanned him. He's for real.

He was there when it happened.

Sit down.

I know you.

You were at the gallery.

You were looking for Pierce.

I need help.

[HIGH-PITCHED SQUEAK]

MULTIPLE VOICES: Scan together.

Scan together and our minds begin
to flow into each other

until we become one mind.

One nervous system.

One soul.

One experience.

Beautiful

Beautiful and frightening.

And frightening.

So frightening to lose yourself.

So frightening to lose yourself.
To lose your will to the group will.

To lose yourself to the group self.

No!

Agh!

Power.

The power we can generate when
we focus our scans together is fantastic.

Fantastic! Terrifying! Exhilarating!

To focus the power of the group scan,
you must dissolve into the group...

To focus the scan...

[SCREAMS]

No, no. Around the side, quick!

Hurry!

Get in!

Let's go! Drive!

Kim?

Kim.

Kim, come on. Kim!

Now I know...

what it feels like to die.

Everywhere you go, somebody dies.
Who are you?

Who sent you?

I'm a scanner.

Who sent you?

I was found by ConSec.

ConSec?

They wanted me to find Revok.

I think they want to kill him.

But they never told me about you.

Tony!

Tony!

[HOOTING]

[SCREAMING]

Tony!

Oh no!

Come on. We gotta get outta here.

[SIRENS BLARE]

Come on.

[SHOPPERS TALKING]

Excuse me.

Excuse me. Hold tight, ma'am.

OK. Let's move this way.

Go back to the street.

- Come on. There's nothing here.
- [SIRENS BLARE]

Oh! There's a fire!

[FIRE ALARM SOUNDS]

We'll be all right here for a while.

It doesn't matter.

It's finished.

And nothing can stop Revok now.

We were the dream

and he's the nightmare.

There's still us. I can help you.

We can destroy Revok together.

You?

You're barely human.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry but you don't understand.

You don't know Revok, you don't know
how evil he is, how powerful he is.

- You don't know anything.
- [GUN CLICKS]

What are you doing?

He must have something that will
lead us to Revok.

Us? No, not IN...

There it is.

That's it.

That's it.

Dr Ruth, telephone call, sir.
Take it right here.

Yes?

It's Cameron Vale.

We missed you.

I've made a breakthrough to Revok.
I wanna come in.

I wanna bring you an informant
from Revok's group.

That's excellent.

I'll arrange for you to be brought in.

Can you call me back in about ten minutes?

OK. Goodbye, Dr Ruth.

All set?

Ten minutes.

We may have developed a serious problem.

Vale's coming in.

He says he has an informant from your
group. Now, is that possible?

No. He's lying.

Then why is he coming in?

Maybe he's homesick.

Look, Vale must know something,
or his informant does.

It could be about me and you.

Then you'd better be the one
to interrogate the informant.

Ruth will talk to Vale.
I won't be able to prevent that.

If Ruth finds out anything,
anything at all...

kill him.

Really?

- I thought you didn't want...
- Kill him.

Really.

[SPEECH INAUDIBLE]

This is ConSec Central.

Security is in place and
you're clear to land.

Repeat - affirmative to /and.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to give you
both an injection of Ephemerol.

Well, Braedon...

No apologies, no vote of confidence
and my man brought back the goods.

Why don't we save the party until
we've unwrapped the presents?

Won't take long.

I have a way with these creatures.

I know that.

So does Trevellyan.

That's why he's asked me
to take the informant.

You can do what you like with Vale.

But that won't work.

Police state tactics simply
won't work, sir.

Really?

Why don't you send a letter to the board
about that, Doctor?

I'm sure they'd love to hear from you.

- [KNOCK ON DOOR]
- Come in!

Welcome.

Congratulations.

It's good to have you back home.

Where's the girl? She should be here.

She's in another room being interrogated.

I thought it would be you.

So did I.

That's why I made sure the needles
I gave you both were harmless.

Don't worry. She'll be able to protect
herself if there's any problem.

Why did you do that?

Gesture of trust to your friend.

I have my own methods.

I have nothing to hide.

Nothing at all to hide.

Not even the Ripe programme?

The what?

Do you know of a drug laboratory called
Biooarbon Amalgamate?

Why yes, of course. I founded it in 1942.

YOU?

Yes, I sold it to ConSec.
That's why I'm here.

Let's say that we have...

a genial working relationship.

Do you know what that lab does?

It's been so long since I've been
in touch with them.

As far as I know they make some sort of
chemical weaponry.

Among other things.

It manufactures Ephemerol
for Darryl Revok.

It may even be run by Darryl Revok.

That's impossible.

No. I was there.

I took the place of one of Revok's men.

I saw Revok in the control room.

The production of Ephemerol
is computerised.

It's being manufactured and sent out
in huge tankers.

Ephemerol is being sent out?

Sent out where?

The answer is in your own computer.

The programme that controls everything
is called Ripe

and it's a ConSec programme.

That means that someone...
here at ConSec...

is a traitor.

And that someone is working with Revok.

I want you to access the Ripe programme.

I do not have ConSec computer clearance.

Neither do I.

But you do have a nervous system
and so does a computer.

And you can scan a computer

as you would... another human being.

Come.

Hello.

Hello.

What a pleasant surprise.

You're very attractive.

OK. Let's do it the formal way.

Your name.

Kim Obrist.

Your name?

Not relevant.

Now...

Tell me everything you know
about Darryl Revok's organisation.

Before I tell you anything...

I wanna know how
you're going to protect me.

When Revok finds out that
I've come here...

he's going to try and kill me.

Miss Obrist...

Your best protection...

is to tell us everything
we need to know.

As soon as you do, Revok will cease
to be a threat to anyone.

Not good enough.

Revok's people are everywhere

and that scares me.

To be honest with you, Kim...

the only one you should be afraid of...

is me.

Why should I be afraid of you?

I came here of my own free will.

Because...

I know you're not what you say you are.

I wanna see someone else.

Listen to me. Listen to me.

Now, I have acquaintances
in Revok's group. They tell me...

They tell me that you have
never been one of them.

Why are you here?

Why?

Goodbye... Kim.

[WHIRRING]

[HIGH-PITCHED SQUEAKING]

[ALARM BLARES]

It must be Kim. Where is she?

Where is she?

- This is more important.
- No!

No, this is more important.

The computer is more important.

Access the Ripe programme.
More important.

But the Ripe programme is the past

therefore to access the Ripe programme is
to access the past, no?

Access the past.

Access past.

[ALARM CONTINUES]

Security!

The scanners. Find them and kill them.
Put it on the air.

Find them and kill them.

It mustn't happen again.

It's always been there inside me.

Lurking away, sucking out my joy,
rotting my successes.

Cameron. Oh, Cameron.

I have a way with you, Cameron.

Mustn't happen again.

Ripe.

Ripe indeed.

The Ripe programme must be stopped!

This isn't the same thing, you understand.
Not the same thing at all.

It's different.

The first time was an accident.

Fortunate for some...

unfortunate for others.

The Ripe programme is cold and cruel.

Very...

very cold.

Very cruel.

[GUNSHOT]

What happened?

Keller tried to kill me.

Keller?

Then he's the one.

[GUNS CLICK]

[HIGH-PITCHED SQUEAK]

[VOICE DISTORTED] on, my God!

[VOICE DISTORTED]
Oh my God! What are you doing here?

I'm sorry, Mum.

Mum, I didn't... I...

I didn't mean...

I didn't mean to, Mum, please.

Blood on my hands.

Secure the computer room.

Blood on my hands.

What's going on?

What the hell is going on?

It's the scanners, sir. They're out.

Is this the only way we can do it?

If we don't plug in to the computer now,
they're going to reprogramme it.

[WHIRRING]

What does that mean?

It means that someone has reprogrammed
the computer in such a way

that the Ripe programme
is locked away inside.

Somebody not only threw away the key -
he plugged the keyhole.

Try it again.

- Try it again.
- OK.

That's as deep into it as we're gonna get.

Hey, Lee...

Punch up your internal monitor.
Access is IM863.

Why? What is it?

Someone's inside this thing right now
getting the Ripe programme.

How can this happen?

This room is max security.

We're plugged into the telephone system.

Anybody who has the proper series
of access codes

could get in here long distance.

You mean someone's getting that right now?

Yeah.

Damn!

It's him.

It's Vale. He's inside.

- Is that possible?
- It's got to be.

It's got to be. I want to hurt him.

How can we hurt him before he gets out?

Hurt him? I don't understand.

Vale's nervous system and the computer's
nervous system are joined together.

He's scanning it.

I want to cripple them both
or maybe kill them both. How?

Well, I don't know if it's what you want

but I could override
the max security self destruct.

It's designed to blow all the circuits in
case of anticipated possession of data

by unauthorised and unfriendly forces.

Do it now.

Sir, that would entail a total loss
of all data.

All programmes within the ConSec system.

I couldn't do that without the written
authorisation of ConSec leader.

Mister, this is your authorisation.

Sit down!

Do it now or I'll kill you.

Yes, sir. I'm doing it now.

Sir, I have to finish it over there.

Sir, this is the last step.

- Are you sure...?
- Do it.

There's no need for that.
It's all very quiet.

It's just internal switching.

Really?

No one's ever switched off
a scanner before.

[CRACKLING]

[RATTLING]

Oh shit!

See? I told you. No fireworks.

[SIRENS WAILING]

OK, I'll go find the doctor.

All right. I'll keep an eye on the door.

Excuse me.

Do you know if the receptionist
is coming back soon?

Ah, yeah, I guess so.

Thanks.

[WHIRRING]

Please, I'll be with you
in a few moments.

I have to talk to you right now, Doctor.

Would you please get out of here?

It's about this drug, Dr Frane.

I understand you've been prescribing it
to some patients?

Excuse me.

I'll be back in just a moment.

Just relax. Read a magazine.

Where did you get this?

What do you want with me?

Who are you?

What happened?

I was scanned.

The woman in the... in the waiting room...

She scanned you?

No, not her.

Her child.

Her unborn child scanned me.

That's what the Ripe programme is.

The doctors on the computer list

are giving Ephemerol
to their pregnant patients.

I don't understand.

Ephemerol.

- Ephemerol is creating new scanners.
- [GLASS SHATTERS]

Agh!

What's this?

- Oh God! Oh God!
- Hold still.

- OK, OK.
- Oh, my God!

Come on. Let's get outta here.

Come on.

Come on. You can make it. Come on.

Kim. Kim!

Vale.

Kim?

Sleeping Beauty awakes.

Where's Kim?

The next room.

She'll be awake in a few hours.

We don't want anyone in here with us.

This is just between you and me.

Where's your partner Keller?
He should be here.

Keller?

Seems he died when
you blew up his computer.

By the way, that was very impressive.

Keller murdered Dr Ruth.
He deserved to die.

You shouldn't mourn the good doctor's
death. You should celebrate it with me.

Dr Ruth was a great man.

He tried to help us.

He helped me.

Great man.

There's only one person on earth who ever
tried to help you, and that's me.

YOU?

- You sent your soldiers out to kill me.
- Never.

Never you.

I've spent years looking for you.

And then when Keller told me
that Ruth had dressed you up

and sent you out as
some ridiculous amateur spy

I tried to take care of you,
look after you. Guide you to me.

Now why would you try to do that?

Who's your mother?

I don't know.

Who's your father?

I don't know.

What was your first childhood memory?

I don't have any.

No, you don't, but it's no accident
that you don't.

You were kept on ice.

It wasn't until ConSec had trouble putting
me away that they thawed you out.

You were monitored every day of your life,
allowed to live like garbage, scum.

He knew where you were
but it wasn't until he needed you

that he reached down and
hauled you up out of the slime.

Who?

Your father.

Dr Paul Ruth.

Our father.

No.

You're my brother, Cameron.

My kid brother.

No.

Sit down. I want to show you something.

This was a test campaign used in 1947
to market a new product.

The product was a drug - a tranquilliser
called Ephemerol.

It was aimed at pregnant women.

If it had worked, it would have been
marketed all over North America.

But the campaign failed
and the drug failed

cos it had a side effect on the unborn
children, an invisible side effect.

It created scanners.

Yes.

The man who invented Ephemerol was very
excited by this weird mutation it caused.

And so was ConSec.
They offered to finance his experiments...

so he sold them his company
and himself.

And that man was Dr Ruth.

That was Daddy.

Now, I said that the side effects
of Ephemerol were invisible.

But that's not completely true.
Daddy could see them.

He could see them in us.

He had given the prototype of Ephemerol
to his pregnant wife, our mother

four years before it hit the market
and then again a year later.

His children turned out to be difficult,

till he realised that the only thing
that would calm them down

was his drug, Ephemerol.

That's why we're older
than all the others.

Not only older - more powerful.

The rest of them -
they're nothing compared to us.

Then what did you need Keller for?

ConSec had hardware. It had contacts.

Keller could see the future.

The future?

You murdered the future.

That's negative, Cam. Defeatist.

It disappoints me to hear you
talk that way.

You're starting to sound like them.

There's a whole generation
of scanner soldiers

just a few months away from being born.

We'll find them, train them to be like us.

Not like Obrist and her band of cripples.

We'll bring the world of normals
to their knees.

Build an empire so brilliant, so glorious,
we'll be the envy of the whole planet.

You sound just like him.

Like Ruth.

No, not like him.

Like Revok! Darryl Revok!

No.

Like him.

It's as though he's been
reincarnated in you.

You're not listening to me.

You're not cooperating, Cam.

You're not cooperating with me at all.

I've been counting on you
for years, Cameron.

Tell me you're not going to betray me
like all the rest. Tell me you're not.

No!

[RATTLING]

All right. We're going to do it
the scanner way.

I'm going to suck your brain dry.

Everything you are is going to become me.

You're going to be with me, Cameron,
no matter what.

After all, brothers should be close,
don't you think?

[HISSING]

[CRIES OUT]

Cameron?

Kim?

It's me, Kim. Cameron.
I'm here.

We've won.

We've won.
