Where's this fragmentation coming from?

- Are you doing that?
- Yes, Dr. Link.

Will you stop it, please?
It's getting late.

- I am attempting to locate-
- Don't argue with me, Adam.

I'm telling you for your own good-
stop screwing around...

with your memory allocation
and get back to sleep mode.

Don't be afraid. I'm not doing
anything here that should concern you.

- But- But-
- Go to sleep.

Yes, Dr. Link.

Thank you, Adam.

Forgive me, Adam.

Yes, Doctor.

What the hell was that?

Adam! Adam, stop!

Abort! Abort!

Let me go!

Oh, my God.

Dr. Link!

- Get Security! Security!
- Security?

- Is it an emergency?
- Yes, it's an emergency!

- Where are you?
- I'm in Rossom, 272.

Dr. Link's been killed.

There is nothing wrong
with your television.

Do not attempt
to adjust the picture.

We are now controlling
the transmission.

We control the horizontal...

and the vertical.

We can deluge you
with a thousand channels...

or expand one single image
to crystal clarity...

and beyond.

We can shape your vision...

to anything
our imagination can conceive.

For the next hour...

we will control
all that you see and hear.

You are about to experience
the awe and mystery...

which reaches from
the deepest inner mind to...

The Outer Limits.

It is said that God
made man in his image...

but man fell from grace.

Still, man has retained
from his humble beginnings...

the innate desire to create.

But how will
man's creations fare?

Will they attain
a measure of the divine...

or will they too fall from grace?

Come on out! Come on out of there
where I can see you.

Now hold it right there!

This is Stevens. I got him.
I'm on the east side of Wheeler Hall.

- 10-4.
- My name is Adam Link.

I don't know where I am.

Can someone contact Dr. Charles Link?

I said hold it right there!

Let's move out! Come on!

Adam Link, drop the weapon!

- Let's move this thing out of here.
- Not so fast.

- Detective Barclay.
- Colonel Birch.

The situation is under control.

Colonel, a man was
murdered here tonight...

and according to an eyewitness,
that robot is my number-one suspect.

This is not your problem.

This is a state university.

And unless I see an executive order
from the governor's office...

you are outside your jurisdiction here.

All right, boys. Let's clear out.

You're walking into
one first-class headache, Detective.

Call for the wagon.

And a crane.

I don't know how else
you'll get that thing downtown.

That won't be necessary.

I'll come under my own power.

Go to sleep.

Yes, Dr. Link.

Thank you, Adam.

Come on outta there.

Come on out of there
where I can see you.!

He's in diagnostic mode.

Replaying his digital memory.

Does he know about my father?

I don't think so. He's been
asking us to contact Dr. Link...

but I've been stalling for time.

I don't exactly want to provoke him.

Mina, where's your father?
Where's Dr. Link?

Dad's dead, Adam.

They found him in the lab.

Did I kill him?

That's what we have to find out.

I'll do what I can to help you.

Tell us what happened.

I can't remember.

Several million sectors
of my active memory...

have been fragmented or destroyed.

What is the last thing
you do remember?

At 9:20 p. M...

Dr. Link was at work on
the central region of my memory array.

He ordered me to initiate sleep mode.

When I woke up a halfhour later,
I was outside.

That's where Detective Barclay
located me.

Is there any way
to restore your memory?

I'll keep trying, Mina.
I'll try very hard.

I know you will.

I want him released into my custody.

I will take full responsibility.

Out of the question.
The court hearing's Monday.

By Tuesday, that robot will be history.

Probably ordered dismantled.

I won't let that happen.

Then I hope you've got
a healthy bank account...

'cause you're gonna need
a damn good lawyer.

Pick up the pace, will ya, Earl?
I'm running out of newspaper.

Excuse me.
Are you Thurman Cutler?

That depends.
You play chess?

Yes.

Are you any good at it?

I was. Until I grew out of it.

That's interesting. Here I thought chess
was something you had to grow into.

May I sit down?

Just a minute. I'll get you a seat.

Checkmate.

Later, Earl.

I'm gonna have to let Earl win
a couple of games one of these days...

just to keep him interested.

Mr. Cutler, I need a good lawyer.

No, thanks.

Mr. Cutler-

Do you always seek out
legal counsel in the city park?

Only when I'm told the best
civil rights attorney there is...

plays chess here every Sunday.

You left out one word- retired.

The law is a game
I don't care to play anymore.

Chess is the only battlefield left
where strategy still means something.

In chess, there's you,
there's your opponent...

and the level playing field.

And once one of your men is knocked off
the board, he can't come back in the game.

He's just out. He can't maneuver
the rules. He can't buy his way back in.

He's just out.

Unless you sacrifice
another man for him.

Mr. Cutler, I need your help.

Why me?

I read some of your cases in
a civil liberties class I took last year.

And the county bar
told me where you lived.

And your housekeeper
told me you were here.

Well, you're resourceful.
I like that.

But I'm still not interested, Miss-

Link. Mina Link.

Any relation to Dr. Link?

His daughter.

I see.

Well, I'm sorry
about your father, Miss Link.

- Thank you.
- Strange situation, that one.

I assume you'll be going after
the university for wrongful death.

No. I need you to defend Adam.

Adam?

The police claim
he killed my father.

- The robot.
- Synthetic human.

I don't believe Adam is responsible.

I think there must've been
some kind of a lab accident.

And you want me
to defend this robot-

this synthetic human.

My father designed Adam
with an artificial intelligence...

enabling him to think for himself.

He can make his own decisions.

This may sound incredible,
but Adam is like a brother to me.

You're right.
It sounds incredible.

Understand this, Mr. Cutler,
Adam is very important to me...

and I intend to save him,
with or without your help.

Can you keep a secret, Miss Link?

Chess bores the hell out of me.

Dr. Link was a pioneer
in the science of robotics.

I represent the SH series 2,
the latest development...

in compressed sim-neural
artificial intelligence...

and state-of-the-art
cyberanimatronics.

I am a fully contained system...

simulating human thought
and movement...

but I do have my limitations.

- Such as?
- My sense of smell...

is at 20% human capacity,
and I have no sense of taste.

As you can see, my tactile sense...

my ability to feel, is quite limited.

Dr. Link was in the process
of supplementing my configuration.

You say that you can
simulate human thought.

How do you feel about
being locked up in there?

How would you feel being
locked up in a cage, Mr. Cutler?

I have thoughts ofleaving.

How do you propose to get out?

I'm beginning to understand
why people think you killed Dr. Link.

My woven titanium-KEVLAR
alloy chassis...

is five times stronger
than ordinary steel.

- What happened to Dr. Link?
- I don't know.

Detective Barclay says
there's an eyewitness...

who saw you tearing up the lab
shortly after Dr. Link was killed.

My memory array was damaged
during the time ofhis death.

However, I cannot conceive why
I should wish to kill Dr. Link.

Dr. Link was my creator.
He was my friend.

When I learned from Mina
that he was dead...

the world seemed
somehow faded to me.

- Thurman Cutler.
- Carrie Emerson.

You've made quite a splash at the
DA's office since last I had the pleasure.

Just a matter of knowing
and using the law...

as you used to say.

But I have to admit, you're the last
person I expected to see here.

This is not the last surprise
you'll have in this case, Carrie.

- I promise you.
- Oh, I doubt that.

This is the very definition
of open-and-shut.

There's something you should know
about open-and-shut cases, Carrie.

They don't exist.

Really?

Eyewitness sees a man dead next to
a lethal machine rampaging out of control.

A security guard is shot
by the same machine.

Tell me why I should
have any problems...

getting a court order
having it dismantled.

Because I'm here now.

And call me crazy, but I have this
little thing about my clients...

being dismantled before
they've had a chance to stand trial.

Stand trial? That robot?

Synthetic human.

Who now has a lawyer.

I've decided to handle
this case personally...

because it's potentially disastrous-

We'll make a statement tomorrow.
Thank you very much.

Equate the rights of a machine
to those of a human being-

I didn't expect this.

You think this is bad,
you wait until the murder trial starts.

Murder trial?
This isn't a murder trial.

- It will be when I'm finished.
- Wait a minute.

What are you talking about? You want
to put Adam on trial for murder?

- It's the surest way to save his life.
- That doesn't make any sense.

If I can prove that Adam has
the right to stand trial for murder...

all I have to do is create a reasonable
doubt as to his guilt to get a hung jury.

Maybe even an acquittal.

I would rather have Adam
break out of jail...

than go on trial
for murdering my father.

Unfortunately, that's no
longer up to you.

- Not up to me?
- No.

It's up to Adam.
He's the client now.

Let it be noted that I have
granted the defense's request.

The defendant may be present
during the hearing...

provided he is restrained.

However, to insure
the safety of the public...

I have restricted spectators
to specific members of the media.

Now, let's get on with it. Ms. Emerson?

Your Honor, although the circumstances
of this case are somewhat unusual...

may I remind you that this court
is bound by strict legal precedent...

and that this case should be conducted
as any other case...

as I believe that Mr. Cutler
has an agenda...

other than that of
the defense of a walking computer.

Objection, Your Honor. Argumentative.

Sustained.

Ms. Emerson, please limit yourself
to your legal arguments.

Quite simply, Your Honor,
the State will show...

that the robot did kill Dr. Link...

that it is essentially a lethal machine
capable of killing again...

and that the State has a right
to protect the citizens...

of this community by having
the robot dismantled.

Now, I anticipate that you will
hear defense counsel argue...

that the robot is a person...

entitled to stand trial because it's shown
some signs of intelligence.

I submit, Your Honor,
that a dog can perform tricks...

thus demonstrating
a level of intelligence.

A dog can show affection
for its master.

To some degree,
you can even say that a dog...

can think and feel and touch...

and in many other respects
share those same qualities...

that define us as persons.

But if a dog were to kill its master...

viciously and without provocation...

the dog is not tried in a court of law.

The dog is not accorded
the privileges of a citizen.

It is destroyed.

For the welfare and the safety
of the community.

The dog is destroyed.

Therefore, Your Honor,
the State respectfully requests...

that this court issue a writ...

requiring the immediate destruction
of the robot.

Thank you, Your Honor.

- Mr. Cutler?
- Excellent.

Adam...

fetch!

Mr. Cutler!

Forgive me, Your Honor,
but I thought it was appropriate...

to test Miss Emerson's assertion.

It's okay, Adam.
You can stay put.

Your Honor, I'm not here
to waste the court's time...

by trying to prove to you
that Adam Link is a human being.

Adam himself would admit
that on a purely mechanical level...

his capabilities fall short
of what humans are capable of.

But I submit, Your Honor, these
limitations do not lessen his worth...

any more than blindness
makes an individual less human.

Adam possesses intelligence.

He has emotions.

And though these have been
artificially conceived...

they are similar to those
of any other man.

Your Honor, I intend to show
that Adam is a thinking, feeling being.

A person who is entitled to a fair trial
before he's dismantled...

which would be
tantamount to execution.

The fact that he's comprised
of sim-neurons and nano-servos...

instead of flesh and blood
is irrelevant.

It's an accident of birth.

And the Constitution purposely
is blind to such accidents.

Your Honor,
I submit the defense will show...

that Adam is indeed a person
who's entitled to a fair trial...

on the charge of murder.

A trial in which the prosecution
will have the burden of showing...

beyond a reasonable doubt...

that Adam is guilty of the crime
which he is alleged to have committed.

Thank you.

I never saw anything move
so fast in my entire life.

It took the gun
out of my hand just like that.

And the next thing I knew,
I was shot in the arm.

Thank you, Officer.

Mr. Stevens...

you testified that after
you called Adam out, he came to you.

He took away your gun
and started shooting.

Is that correct?

Yes, sir.

Let me see if I've got this straight.
He walked up to you...

he grabbed your gun
and he shot you.

Yeah. I mean, yes sir.
That's right.

At point-blank range
he fired four rounds...

but he only managed
to graze your arm.

Mr. Stevens, Adam Link is capable...

of taking out a flea in a hurricane...

yet he only managed to graze your arm
from three feet away.

How do you account for that?

- How do I account for it?
- Yes.

- Mr. Stevens?
- Yes.

No.

- I don't know.
- You don't know.

What're you saying,
I shot myself?

I'm saying that you shot Adam...

and because of his metal plating...

the bullets ricocheted
off of his body...

and one of them
happened to graze your arm.

Objection, Your Honor.

- All of this is purely speculative.
- Your Honor, I would like to submit...

into evidence Defense Exhibit One...

a ballistics report
which clearly supports my theory.

Objection overruled.

- Continue, Mr. Cutler.
- Thank you, Your Honor.

So it appears that Adam's decision
to take your gun away...

was for the sole purpose
of protecting you from yourself.

Mr. Stevens, in essence,
if Adam had not taken away your gun...

you would not be alive
to testify here today.

Objection. Your Honor-

I have no further questions, Your Honor.

Twice a week after school,
I would come over with books...

for Adam from the library.

My father felt that the university
was not quite ready for Adam...

to be walking around campus
or taking classes.

Couldn't this information
have simply been...

programmed into Adam's memory?

No.

I don't understand
the technical reasons...

but something in the way
my father designed Adam's brain...

requires that he learn
through experiences.

Just like people.

So, you taught Adam to read.

My father did actually.

Adam learned to read very quickly...

about a week after my father
powered him up for the first time.

I was simply providing Adam
with materials that interested him...

books that weren't available
in my father's library.

Mina, how would you
describe your relationship with Adam?

Adam and I grew up together.

To me, Adam is like a brother.

Would you also say
that he was a son to your father?

Definitely.

Which is why I believe there is no way
Adam could have intentionally killed him.

Adam couldn't do it.
He just doesn't have it in him.

Objection, Your Honor. The state of mind
of the defendant is irrelevant.

Your Honor, Miss Link is merely testifying
as to the humanlike relationship...

between the defendant
and the deceased.

May I remind Mr. Cutler
this is not a murder trial?

May I inform Miss Emerson
I'm not quite yet senile?

On any given day, I am capable
of remembering where I am.

Mr. Cutler knows full well what I mean...

and he's simply trying to confuse-

Now let me make it clear. I am not
gonna put up with this type of theatrics.

This is a court room,
not the National Theater.

Let's stick with the issues before us.

Mr. Cutler, please continue.

I have nothing further, Your Honor.

Ms. Emerson?

Ms. Link, how do you know
that the robot...

was actually reading
the material you provided?

He looked at it,
and he remembered it.

- I don't know how else-
- Wasn't he merely scanning...

the documentation,
like any photocopy machine...

storing it like any laptop computer?

Laptop computers don't enjoy poetry.

Adam liked to hear the sound of poetry,
particularly when I read it to him.

Wasn't the robot merely reacting
the way you wanted it to...

the way it was programmed to?

You don't get it.

Shortly after my mother died...

Adam and I were in the lab together,
and I started to cry.

And Adam came over
and asked me what was wrong.

I told him to go away.

And then Adam said something to me
that I will remember as long as I live.

He said to me,
"Mina, I will never leave you."

Don't you see?
He was trying to console me.

He saw that I was in pain,
and he wanted it to stop.

That is not something
that can be programmed, Ms. Emerson.

That is something that comes from inside.

Deep inside.

It's what makes us human.

No further questions, Your Honor.

I've got Emerson
right where I want her.

And tomorrow,
Judge Clancy is gonna find out...

that his choices are extremely limited.

I'm about to push constitutional
protection to the point of absurdity.

I was not aware that this hearing
was intended to be a lesson in the absurd.

I can't expect you to see the beauty
in this, but I'm gonna force that judge...

to put a talking mannequin...

albeit a highly sophisticated one,
on trial for murder.

Is that how you really see me, Mr. Cutler,
as a talking mannequin?

Your design and your construction
are nothing short of genius...

but even you must understand...

that you're basically a takeoff
on the thoughts and feelings...

that Dr. Link programmed into you.

A man suffers, a man bleeds,
a man has a soul-

I could snap your neck
as if it were a toothpick.

In that sense, you're right.
I'm not like most men.

But like most men, I choose not to.

- Let me go.
- Why?

Because I have respect for life,
all life...

even that of a jaded attorney
who wants to put a talking mannequin...

on trial to discredit the legal system.

You don't know me, Mr. Cutler.

You don't know anything about me.

The thought that Dr. Link,
my creator, my friend, is dead...

saddens me to no end.

And the thought
that I may have killed him...

even ifby accident,
is abhorrent to me.

Do you understand?

I do suffer. But unlike men,
my face doesn't show my feelings.

Now, please, leave me alone.

Dr. Linstrop, as head of Dr. Link's
department at the university...

I assume it's safe to say
that you knew Dr. Link...

personally.

That's correct.

And what kind of man was he?

He was a good man.
A good friend.

Doctor, as an expert yourself
in artificial intelligence...

I assume it's also safe to say
that you were familiar...

with the research
involving Adam Link.

I'm familiar with the inner workings
of Adam, if that's what you mean.

Could you, in layman's terms, describe
for the court exactly what Adam is?

Well, he's a true synthetic human.

He possesses a frame that mimics
the human body in almost every detail.

But most significantly...

Dr. Link succeeded in creating
a very advanced type of brain...

capable of decision making
and problem solving.

Would you that say he is capable
of human emotions?

No, I would suggest
that he can adopt some...

but not necessarily all
human emotions.

Yes or no, Doctor.

Is he capable of human emotion?

I would have to say yes.

Where would he derive
these emotions from?

From his environment.

From his programmer,
in this case, Dr. Link.

Would you describe Dr. Link as possessing
the emotions of a mindless killer?

Certainly not.

Your Honor, I must object
to this line of questioning.

Once again, counsel is seeking
an acquittal for his client.

Move on to something else,
Mr. Cutler.

Dr. Linstrop, as head of Dr. Link's
department at the university...

weren't you also responsible
for disbursing the funds for his research?

Up until the time
I had to cut funding, yes.

Why was that?

Quite simply,
spending priorities were changing.

Yet Dr. Link continued his research
up until the day he died.

Where did he get the money?

Outside research grants, I suppose.

Thank you, Doctor.

Dr. Linstrop, the lab technician
who found Dr. Link's body...

testified that the robot
was raging out of control in the lab.

Could you explain the circumstances that
might cause the robot to behave this way?

Interruption of his power supply,
certain reprogramming.

Is it possible to simulate
such reprogramming?

Yes. I could redirect
one of the fiber optics...

leading to his iridium memory bank
by using a bypass card.

I ask the court's indulgence.

Your Honor, if prosecution is suggesting
what I think she's suggesting...

I strongly object.

- On what grounds?
- That these theatrics, as you put it...

have no relevancy to these proceedings
and may be harmful to my client.

I think such a demonstration
would be quite germane.

Or, Ms. Emerson,
could this be dangerous?

Your Honor, we have
Dr. Link's remote unit...

that would enable us to shut down
the robot's motor skills entirely.

- Mr. Cutler, I do not want this.
- Proceed, Doctor.

I'm sorry, Adam.
There's nothing I can do.

Adam, disengage right access panel.

Panic. Panic. Panic.

Kill him. Kill him. Kill him.

Dr. Linstrop, help him!
Do something!

Stop the program! Stop it!
Please help him!

Can you help him, please?

Panic. Panic. Panic.

Adam, stop it.!

Abort.! Abort.!

Let me go.!

How were you able to reconstruct
those images for playback?

I can't be sure.

But I believe it had something to do
with the trauma I experienced in court.

Somehow the neural cells for that
time period have become accessible to me.

Mina, I'm so sorry.

I can't think of anything else to say.

I don't know why this happened.

It wasn't your fault.

Clearly it was.

Dad was obviously doing some kind
of reprogramming that caused you...

to react the same way
you did in court today.

I don't hold you responsible.

Please, please, believe that.

But exactly what was your father
doing to Adam?

That's what we need to find out.

All I can remember
is waking up in a panic.

As if I was having a nightmare
in which a part of me...

was slipping away, being destroyed.

It sounds like Dr. Link wasn't just
crossing wires to get Adam to go berserk.

- What are you getting at?
- Something Dr. Linstrop said...

that keeps sticking in my mind.

That funding for Adam was cut off...

and Dr. Link needed to find
new sources of income.

Mina, where would your father
keep his financial records?

What you're looking at are all
the deposits I made for Dad...

over the last six months.

I noted where the checks came from
in the memo column.

- Fischer Aerospace.
- What about them?

They paid your dad more than
$50,000 last year.

That was for a commercial airline tracking
system. He was designing it for them.

There's nothing commercial
about Fischer Aerospace.

They're strictly
a defense industry contractor.

But that's not what concerns me.

- What is it?
- There was nothing about Fischer...

in the documents
the DA's office turned over to me.

Hi, Don.

You've been holding out on me, Counselor.

I don't know what
you're talking about, Counselor.

The documents in the Adam Link case.

You're obliged to turn over
everything you found in Dr. Link's office.

- I've done just that.
- Except for the Fischer Aerospace file.

Oh, that file was marked
"National Security."

- You're not entitled to it.
- That might be true...

if this were a civil proceeding...

but I think we both know I could easily
argue this is now a criminal matter.

And I want that file, Carrie.

It really doesn't matter, you know.

After my little demonstration
in court yesterday...

this file's not gonna
help you one iota.

Besides, Judge Clancy takes a dim view
of having his courtroom trashed.

If I were in your position,
I might've done the same thing.

Well, you have been
in my position...

and you have done the same thing.

There's a difference.

I'd have got away with it.

Come on, Thurman, get in.
I don't bite...

much.

- Twice around the capital, Harry.
- Yes, sir, Colonel.

I'm Colonel Birch.

I was wondering when you were
gonna fit the pieces together.

I'm not sure I have.

Let's just say that you have enough
to make some people a bit nervous.

And you're the nervous type.

Okay, let's see.

Dr. Link ran out of money, and he became
the beneficiary of a defense contractor.

And he was refitting Adam
for a military application...

maybe a soldier?

Think about the implications.

In a hostage situation,
just send in Adam.

In flare-ups around the globe...

just send in Adam.

Hell, send in a whole army of Adams,
for that matter...

if it means saving the lives
of American servicemen.

Somehow I don't see Adam
as the perfect killing machine.

That's where we ran into trouble.

The military indoctrination
Adam was receiving was being sabotaged.

Sabotaged? By whom?

I believe you know them.

Gandhi, Whitman and Emerson.

Seems like the more educated
Adam became...

the less stomach
he had for fighting.

So your super-soldier became a poet.

That's rich.

That's damn poetic.

Adam went AWOL.

Don't take it too hard, Birch.
It's not the first time.

It's not gonna happen this time.

Adam must be destroyed.

Now, in the context of this hearing...

before it becomes
a public circus murder trial.

Relax, Birch.

This case is lost,
no matter what I do.

The DOI is very particular
about keeping files.

We currently have enough documented
professional misconduct on you...

to make your next retirement
imminent and permanent.

Pull over, Harry.

Don't be afraid. I'm not doing
anything here that should concern you.

- Go to sleep.
- Yes, Dr. Link.

Thank you, Adam.

Adam, stop.!

Abort.! Abort, Adam.!

Let me go.!

Adam, what was that
you just showed the judge?

The moment of Dr. Link's death.

- Through your eyes?
- Yes.

Will you describe for the court,
in your words...

what happened during the time
the screen went blank...

when Dr. Link told you to shut down...

and the time the screen
flickered back on...

and you shoved Dr. Link.

I was in sleep mode.

And will you describe any sensations
you had in sleep mode...

any thoughts, any feelings?

Objection. Your Honor,
the robot's so-called state of mind...

at the time of Dr. Link's death
is irrelevant.

Your Honor, I'm not so interested
in determining what Adam's...

state of mind was
at the time of Dr. Link's death...

as I am of convincing you
that he has a state of mind.

This goes to the very heart
of these proceedings.

I will allow it.
The witness may answer the question.

As the playback indicates,
at approximately 9:20...

Dr. Link advised me to go
into sleep mode, which I did.

At 9:35, I experienced
strange sensations...

which I can only liken to
human dreams.

And will you describe those sensations?

I felt as if my brain center
was slowly disintegrating.

That my mind was somehow
being removed from my body.

I thought I was dying
and started to panic.

I struggled blindly to get free.

I had no awareness at the time
that I was hurting Dr. Link.

When I regained consciousness, I was
in the alley where the guard found me.

I did not know where I was
or how I got there.

Thank you, Adam.

I would like to submit into evidence...

these canceled checks, drawn on
the account of Fischer Aerospace...

and made payable to Dr. Charles Link.

I would also like
to submit this memo...

to Dr. Link from the head
of research and development...

at Fischer and dated
just two days prior to Dr. Link's death.

The memo reads in part...

"Please be advised that the defense
department funding will be suspended...

until you can successfully
demonstrate that the problems...

in reconfiguring the brain center
of the SH2"-That's Adam-

"For military operations
can be overcome.

Reconfiguring the brain center...

of the SH2 for military operations."

On the night in question, Dr. Link
was trying to wipe out Adam's mind...

and reprogram it
for military indoctrination...

in order to maintain funding
for his continued research.

Your Honor,
this is all just speculation.

However, if Mr. Cutler's theory
is correct...

and the Adam Link project is
a military experiment gone awry...

then it would only support
the State's position...

that this robot is
an uncontrollable instrument of death.

- And it has no constitutional rights.
- Adam has sat in this courtroom...

for days without so much
as snapping a pencil.

Only when a plastic object
was inserted into his brain center...

did he demonstrate
any violent behavior.

Similarly, when he became concerned that
he was being lobotomized by Dr. Link-

Your Honor, Dr. Link and Fischer Aerospace
are not on trial.

He became hysterical and he tried
to protect himself in the same way...

that any human being
would with an instinct to survive.

- Objection. Your Honor-
- The only conclusion to be made...

is that Fischer Aerospace
and the unfortunate Dr. Link himself...

are responsible for the violent behavior
which resulted in Dr. Link's death.

Mr. Cutler, that's enough.

Objection sustained.

Such outbursts are not helping
your case, Mr. Cutler.

Now...

would you like to continue
questioning the witness?

Your Honor, the defense rests.

Ms. Emerson, cross-examination?

- No, thank you, Your Honor.
- Very well.

This court is recessed
till 9:00 a.m. Tomorrow...

at which time
I will render my decision.

You realize it's over for you, Cutler.
You just sang your swan song.

Colonel, I hope I got the notes right.

Guess I'm just gonna
have to learn to like chess.

It is clear that the defendant is capable,
under certain circumstances...

of losing control to the point
where others may sustain serious injury...

even death.

On the other hand, the defendant has shown
a propensity for such violence...

only when provoked to such an extent...

that no normal person can be expected
to maintain complete control.

Is Adam Link a person?

The Constitution defines person
as human being...

and although Adam does not have
the physical body of a man...

he has exhibited human qualities
which are similar to...

if not identical to,
that of any other person.

Now it may be argued
that the framers of the Constitution...

never intended its protections
to be extended...

to an inorganic being such as Adam.

But the Constitution itself
is an organic...

ever-changing document...

a document which empowers
the courts to interpret and reinterpret...

its meaning
within the context of our times.

Based on these observations...

I hereby find
that Adam Link is a person...

entitled to the rights
accorded to our citizens...

under the Constitution...

and is hereby ordered
to stand trial for any alleged crimes...

the District Attorney's Office
sees fit to file against him.

Until such time, the defendant is remanded
to the custody of the county jail.

This court stands adjourned.

You did it.

Carrie!

Adam!

Is he all right?

Don't be afraid, Adam.

Don't be afraid.

Empathy, sacrifice, love-

these qualities are not confined
to walls offlesh and blood...

but are found within the deepest,
best parts of man's soul...

no matter where that soul resides.
