All language subtitles for The Lazarus Project S02E05 US

Shut it down. Shut it down!

- We've created a Black Hole.
- Someone's behind this.

If you wanted to work out a
way of turning back time yourself,

what would you do? If it were me,
I'd find the one person smart enough

to know how all this works,
and I'd put them to work.

- Janet?

- I was in Lazarus just like you.
- When? - Long time ago, now.

- Dennis didn't mention that?
- No.

They're scientists. We think
they built the machine that caused

the second singularity.

So we find them. They
build you a machine.

We go back. Past the check-point
before the second singularity

- was created. Stop it.
- Rescue Janet.

Cancel the loop. Everyone
lives happily ever after.

We know Wes met
Dr. Gray. She covered it up.

Dr. Gray was murdered and
her lab burnt down in 2012.

And a conveniently dead
Lazarus agent who suffered burns

at the same time.

- What do you know
about Operation Midnight?

It was a kill mission.

Kill the scientists.
Destroy the lab.

It wasn't just Gray they were after.
Wes wanted all the disciples killed.

The end of the world
doesn’t scare me, Drs

I’ve seen it all before.

I don’t... I don’t know if you
understand the severity of the situation.

I’m afraid if we use the machine
to try and go back and undo this,

we're going to cause
further damage.

Sir, w-w-w-we do not
know how to fix this.

No, you don’t.

But I know someone who might.

Hello, Janet.

It’s been a very long time.

I imagine you may feel
like you’re seeing a ghost.

I heard Wes told everyone
that I’d taken my own life.

- Not the worst lie she’s told.
- I want to see my daughter, now.

You’re going to.

But first, I want to
make you a proposition.

You'll remember
Operation Midnight.

- It’s a cool name for an operation.
- - These are your targets.

You go in one week.
- It’s a big body count.

Not paying you by the bullet.

- You okay?
- I, um...

haven’t done something
like this before.

Ross will handle the wet work. I need
you only to find and identify the research.

- When you find it, destroy it.
- What kind of research are they doing?

The kind that warrants
a very serious reaction.

- Just the two of us, ma’am?
- Yes, I can’t open it up any wider.

- Why not?
- Because it’s sensitive.

Sir.

Ah!

Identify the research.
Set the charges. Get out.

You can’t stop it.

Throughout human history,
the march of progress,

there have always been those that try
to stand in the way, but never manage.

Please.

Please.

I only ever wanted to...

There’s fucking guards
everywhere. The research?

The scientists are MIA.
We’re just gonna go. Come on.

Ross!

Come on! Come on!

Do you know what Dr. Gray was
working on when you killed her?

I have my suspicions.

That night set
us back ten years.

But now we’ve caught
up. We’ve made a machine.

In truth, we have come
to the limit of our abilities

- and we need a new team to finish it.
- Or, rather, an old team.

I rolled my eyes at the name "Lazarus
Project." Bit on the nose, isn’t it?

Well, in that spirit, I’d like to
invite you to join Project Icarus.

We flew, Janet,
too close to the sun.

Our wings are melting,
and now we are falling.

And you can save us.

Where is my daughter?

She’s waiting for you.

In the year 2012
where I sent her.

Now you're going to follow
her, like any good mother would.

And when you're there you're
going to take all the knowledge

my scientists have gained
over the last decade.

And you're going to share it
with Dr. Gray. And together

you are going to build
a perfect time machine.

One with no side effects. No flaws,
no Black Holes or endless loops.

You're embarking on the greatest scientific
mission the world has ever know, Janet.

And I wish you Godspeed.

Our fate, depends
on your success.

- Becky! - Mum!
- It’s okay, it’s okay.

It’s okay. You’re okay.

You’re okay. Oh!

Okay.

Hey. Hey.

It’s okay.

What do you think, Doctor?

It’s the velocity.

Excuse me?

There is no way, you are getting
optimum velocity from this equipment.

- I’m sorry, who are you?
- Dr. Hill. Janet.

- My supervisor was in touch about a visit.
- Oh, yeah,

- I think we turned that down.
- Did you?

Oh, well...

- I’m here.
- Yes, but I’m afraid I’m not looking

for any research
assistants at the moment.

We checked the velocity
chambers, by the way.

Of course. But, you know,
I would check them again.

I have some of my own calculations.
Back-of-a-napkin stuff, really.

You might be interested in them.

Thank you.

Thank you.

My number’s on the back,
if you want to talk again.

Maybe she’s not
gonna call. She’ll call.

- Yeah? How can you be so sure?
- Someone walks in and hands you a folder

that advances your life’s work
by ten years, you give them a call.

What are you doing?

I'm creating your
digital footprint.

So I’m gonna need
to stay close to you.

We should come up with a cover
story. I should pose as your husband.

Becky can pass as our daughter.

Will you do me the honour?

What makes you
think you’re my type?

I have access to a mirror.

Well, you will just
have to pretend then.

Dr. Hill?

I read your papers.

Can we talk, please?

It’s for visiting academics.

- And it's just above the lab.
- Thank you. It’s perfect.

I’ll take her, darling.

Are you ready? Zoom!

Let’s go and see our new home.

- Oh, wow...
- I don’t understand

how you’ve managed
to achieve all this.

It’s extraordinary.

It’s...

It’s like we were meant
to find each other.

Yeah.

I start work early.
Six a.m., usually.

I’ll be there.

Mm-hmm.

Hmm.

So you think you can do it?

Create a machine that sends
someone back through time

without also creating a
universe-destroying Black Hole?

Yeah, piece of piss.

Well, they told me
you were a genius, so...

Guess if anyone
can do it, it’s you.

In just under a month...

2012 me, is gonna
enter this building,

and I am gonna kill Dr. Gray

and help burn this
lab to the ground.

Except you won’t. It’ll be
different this time. I'm here.

What happens if
things are different?

What happens if I don’t
kill Dr. Gray? What then?

It’ll change everything. It will undo
everything that happens after that.

Everything.

So, what are you saying?

I’m saying I’ve got four weeks
to complete the research,

because in four weeks

Dr. Gray will be dead.
That’s what I’m saying.

Hey.

Here.

We’ve never seen
readings like this.

Hold on.

What is it?

That’s a lot of atomic
activity I wasn’t expecting.

That’s gonna become
unstable very quickly.

You think, if we ran
these tests for real...

There’d be some rather
serious consequences.

- Like what?

Conceivably, an
immense gravitational pull.

These readings are
something akin to...

The creation of a black hole.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

We can get the machine to
work, but the consequences...

Would be catastrophic.

This is what you’ve found
whenever you’ve run this test?

Yes.

And I don’t know
how to stop it. Yet.

Interesting.

And what’s the latest
from Washington?

Uh, Gallup has Romley at
52%, and Reuters has him at 53.

- And what do our people say?
- They think it’s time

- America had a handsome president again.
- A second term for Obama.

- Who was the last one?
- Hmm, Bill had a certain magnetism.

I did notice you made more trips
than usual when he was in charge.

- Jealous?
- Always.

Oh, there was one other thing.
I was going over our budget,

and I came across some
unexplained outgoings.

When did you start
going over our budget?

The payments add up to something in the
region of £5 million, to a private company.

Just some investments
I’ve been making.

Robin, we have a time machine,
but we also have a credit rating.

If you’re going to take five
million out of the coffers,

I need to know
before the bailiffs come

and start taking our furniture.

I’ve been funding some
experimental research.

Researching what?

I’ve found a scientist who believes
she can build a time machine.

- We already have a time machine.
- A proper one.

One that can break
past the check-point.

What do you want to do?
Go back to when you had hair?

Elizabeth...

It’s impossible to break
through the checkpoint, Robin.

- And a bloody good thing too.
- It’s not impossible, Lizzie.

- It just hasn’t been done, yet.
- Don’t call me Lizzie. - And don’t tell me

how I can spend my own money.

Look, I didn’t want
to bother you with it

until I was sure it was
worth bothering you with it.

Just exploratory research.

Probably come to nothing.

If there is someone out
there who truly believes

they can break through the check-point,
you shouldn’t be investing in them.

You should be burying them.

I know there’s something
you’re not telling me,

but I don’t know, if I
should be concerned.

- What do you mean?
- Well...

someone doesn’t just
turn up at your door

with the answer to
all your problems.

It’s just not how the
world works, is it?

Look, I’m not complaining.

We've advanced more in the
last week than in the last year.

It’s just, um...

I don’t know.

Trust issues, maybe.

Sorry, I’m, um...

I’m being rude.

No. You’re being cautious.
I get it. And you’re right.

You’re not that lucky.

Luck has nothing to do with it.
You have built this incredible thing.

Of course, people are
gonna come looking.

And you’re right to be wary, because
not all of them are gonna be good.

Apart from me.
I’m fucking great.

Can I ask you something?

Why time travel?

What do you mean?

Well, did you stumble on it,
or did you go looking for it?

Well, um...

You know, lots of reasons.

They probably all lead back
to one reason, or one person.

Charlotte Weir.

First day at nursery, she found
me crying on the reading mat

and gave me a biscuit. Lifelong
friendship cemented in that moment.

God, I loved her. I just...

loved her.

Brilliant mind. I
mean, not academic.

She could barely do basic
arithmetic. But she was just so sharp.

So alive to everything.

There was no problem she
couldn’t see a path through.

There isn’t really a good cancer,
but pancreatic cancer, boy,

that’s one of the really bad
ones. A whole other deal,

because it doesn’t
give a shit what it takes.

It’ll kill the most beautiful garden
and salt the earth afterwards.

And I know...

death is a part of life, as assuredly
as birth. But you know what?

I got cheated.

Twenty-one years?

No. Sorry.

Not enough.

Not enough by half.

So, yeah.

Time travel.

I went looking for it.

The fact remains
that time travel

is not the creation of
science-fiction writers.

It is not an idea conjured
up by daydreamers.

Time travel is not
something that we invent.

It is something we harness,

because time travel
is already here.

Dr. Gray? Elizabeth Wesley.

- I enjoyed your lecture very much.
- Thank you.

I was skeptical going in,
but you turned me around.

That’s good.

I’m not sure I
convince many people,

but we try and
share our knowledge.

- Do you really think it’s possible?
- Yes, I do.

I’d love to see your work.

I’m afraid my lab
isn’t open to the public,

- Of course.
- Very nice to meet you.

It’s probably sensible
to be cautious, Kitty.

I’d think about not doing any
more lectures if I were you.

You might start
to convince people

you’re onto
something and, well...

who knows where that could lead.

Who are you?

- I’m an interested party.
- Right.

I don’t usually do this.
Perhaps I’m getting soft. But,

I’m going to give
you a piece of advice.

Well, less a piece of
advice, more a warning.

Stop doing what you’re doing.

Stop building what
you’re building...

before someone gets hurt.

Who was she?

She said her name was Elizabeth.

Something-Wesland. I dunno.

Wesley?

Yeah. You know her?

She’s a crank.

Used to turn up at my lectures

ranting and raving
about time travel.

Warning us off, threatening the
lab techs. She’s completely insane.

Oh, okay.

So...

- I should...
- Ignore her?

Yes, absolutely.

Well, that’s a relief.

All right. My brain is fried.
I’m gonna call it a night.

Okay. See you tomorrow.

- You know...
- Good night. - Night.

It’d probably do you
good to take a break.

I’ve got an invite to a pretty
exclusive party, if you fancied it.

Ready? Twist.

- Ooh!
- Is that good? Is that good?

Do two tens and a three make 21?

- No.
- Then, yes, it’s bad.

- Hhm.
- This woman has a galaxy-sized brain,

but can’t remember
the rules of blackjack.

Maybe, I’ll go back in time.
Spend my 20s in a casino.

- Okay, my turn.
- Stick or twist?

- Stick. - Ugh!
- Coward.

Think you can bully
me into losing the game?

I am not bullying you.
I am encouraging you

- to show a little backbone.
- Oh! - Ouch.

Okay. All right.

Twist.

Oh! That means
you’ve lost, doesn’t it?

- Yeah.
- I am getting better at this.

That was stupid.

You need to learn
to trust your instincts.

- This was a lesson?
- Everything’s a lesson.

Now come on, hand
over your money.

Take it. Take it all.
- You too. - Oh, come on.

All right.

- You earnt it. Well done.
- Hey, where are you going?

I want a photo.

- Come, hand it over. Let me do it.
- Whoa.

Right, let me take that.

- You go next to Mummy.
- Hi. - That’s it.

Three, two...
Huddle in, everybody.

Three, two, one, blackjack!

- Blackjack!
- Blackjack!

- I want one with Kitty as well.
- Oh, no, no.

Oh, yes, yes, come on.

Come on, you’re not
getting out of it that easily.

Well, thank you for
having me round.

- It was fun.
- You’re welcome.

And what happens
if things are different?

If I don't kill Dr. Gray? What
then? It'll change everything.

It will undo everything
that happens after that.

Everything.

It’s called Operation Midnight.

- These are your targets.
- I haven’t, um...

done something like this before.

I need you just to find
and identify the research.

And when you
find it, destroy it.

What kind of research
are they doing?

The kind that warrants
a very serious reaction.

Dr. Hill.

Janet.

Janet.

Janet, look at this.

The atomic structure
is stabilising, it’s...

It’s... It’s a breakthrough.
It’s a fucking breakthrough.

With a few more weeks, we
might be ready for our first test run.

Why wait?

What?

What harm would
it do? Let’s try now.

- What, just me and you?
- Why not?

Okay. Okay.

Let’s do it.

One key difference, though. We’ve
always talked about sending something back.

We need to try sending something
forward. A single live test subject.

One hour into the
future. I think we can do it.

And the side effects?

I don’t think that’s gonna
be a problem anymore.

Once the cooling
rods are activated,

I need you to connect
the external power drives.

On it.

What are the
readings looking like?

- Steady.
- Light readings?

Light readings are good.

Do it.

It’s holding!

Oh my...

- One hour?
- One hour.

It's time.

Yes?

Mr. Lerner. I thought you might
like to know that earlier this evening,

we ran our first successful
test of the machine.

Sir...

I thought you’d like to know that
your money has been well spent.

Dr. Gray, that is the best news
I’ve heard for a very long time.

It’s me. Come in now.

I’m moving
Operation Midnight up.

It’s happening tonight.

The world changed
tonight, didn’t it?

It’s really never going
to be the same again.

You’ve done an
amazing thing, Kitty.

I hope you’re very proud.

We did it together.

Goodnight, see
you in the morning.

Shit.

Too early!

Come on.

Gonna play dead, okay? Stay here

Find the research.

Okay, it’s okay. It’s all right.

Go, go, go. Go, go, go.

- Hey, don't move!
- Keep walking, Becky.

Stop there. Turn around.

Keep walking, Becky.

Becky?

Becky!

Becky!

Janet?

- Janet, what are you doing?
- How do you know who I am?

Stay... Stay here.

Janet, there’s fucking
guards everywhere.

- Is the research there?
- Do you know what they're building?

I don’t care. Let’s set
the explosives and go.

There's a woman in there
who knows, who I am. Ross,

I think they have built
their own time machine.

All the more reason to blow it up
then. No, no, no! We need to take her in.

- question her, find out what's going on.
- No.

We need to do what Wes told us,

which means getting rid of the
machine, and her. No! Ross, please don’t!

I’m begging you, Ross!

Ross...

It works.

Let’s go.

Let’s fucking go.

Becky. Becky.

No no! It’s me...

- Fuck!
- No!

No!

Go, go go.

I blacked out. Woke up
in a hospital. It’s just me .

Mum was dead.
Bryson had disappeared.

Obviously I had no ID, and
no records of me existed.

Couple of different
foster parents.

Bad times.

She was begging him.
"Ross, please don’t hurt her."

Ross?

It’s the last thing I remember
before I blacked out.

What the hell’s going on?

Half an hour ago, your
laboratory was attacked.

Burned down. Dr. Gray is dead.

Oh my God.

The person you are calling

is unable to take your call.

Please leave your
message after the tone.

To re-record your message,
key hash at any time.

What do you think, Doctor?

I have an idea.
