All language subtitles for Lucy.2014

LUCY: Life was given to
us a billion years ago.

What have we done with it?

Lucy. It's easy as pie.

- In and out, all done and dusted.
- And why don't you do it yourself?

The last thing the guy's expecting is a
total 10 turning up to deliver the case.

- It'll blow his mind. Come on!
- What's in it?

(CHUCKLING) Sweetheart!
Don't get paranoid on me, all right?

You trust me, don't you?

(UPBEAT DANCE MUSIC PLAYING)

(ALL WHOOPING)

Fuck!

Richard, I really do like you. But...

I have to take care of
myself right now. I gotta...

I don't know. I've got to
concentrate on so many things.

Hey, hey. What are you doing?

I'm going home, because
I have exams on Monday.

I have to shower and I
have to study, okay?

You know what? The other day,
I was in this museum.

- And you know what I found out?
- What?

The first ever woman was named Lucy.

- Is that supposed to make me feel better?
- Yeah. No.

- I'll call you. Okay?
- Okay, okay, okay.

I'll be honest with you.
I can't deliver the case myself.

I had a little falling-out with the guy.
It's nothing major,

but if it's you, problem solved. You walk
in there, you go up to the reception,

you ask for Mr. Jang to come down.
He comes down, he takes the case,

you flash him your prettiest
smile and bounce.

Look! You can even see
the reception from here.

Come on.

- What's in the case?
- I don't know, it's just some paperwork.

Yeah? Let's see it then.

It's locked. And only
Mr. Jang has the code.

- (SCOFFS)
- I'm just the delivery boy.

- Do you get paid to do this?
- Yeah, kind of.

Like how much?

Okay! We are negotiating now or...

No, no. How much do you get paid?
I want to know how much.

A thousand dollars.

You get paid a thousand dollars
for delivering paperwork? Really?

I don't know. It takes me 10
minutes and they pay me a grand

and the rest is none of my business.

Well, it's none of my business either,
I'll tell you now.

- Listen!
- What?

We split it down the middle. Hmm?

(SIGHS)
That's 500 for you, and 500 for me.

- Richard, I will call you.
- Listen, it's the third time this week,

I'm showing up in the same hotel,
with the same cowboy hat.

Oh.

(IN SOUTHERN ACCENT) Problem solved!

(IN NORMAL VOICE)
Go, go. I'll wait for you. Go.

Lucy, honey... I've done this
a dozen times. It's paperwork.

It's probably just some designs they
switched so they can copy them.

That's how it works in this country.
Even my Stetson was made here. Look.

Says so on the label,
"Made in Taiwan."

(IN SOUTHERN ACCENT)
So long, cowboy with the fake Stetson.

Baby, please.

(IN NORMAL VOICE) Richard,
I got to go. And seriously...

- What the hell are you doing?
- I'm sorry.

- I'm so sorry. I really need your help.
- Stop! Stop it! Take this off me right now!

- I can't.
- Take this off me right now!

I can't, Mr. Jang's the
only one who has the key.

All you have to do is go into the hotel
and ask for him at the reception.

- No! Take it off me right now!
- I'm so sorry. I really have no choice.

The sooner you go in,
the sooner you'll be back out!

- I can't believe you did this to me.
- I'll be right here. You have my word.

- Your word isn't worth shit!
- It's worth 500 bucks, up front.

- You're an asshole.
- And you're wonderful.

(SCOFFS)

- Miss, may I help you?
- Uh, yes.

I'm here for, uh...

Mr. Jang.

Yes, um...

Who should I say is here?

Richard.

Um, Richard sent me.

(SPEAKING MANDARIN)

What is your name?

No, Richard.

Richard's... He's just
looking for a place to park.

(CONTINUES SPEAKING MANDARIN)

Mr. Jang still wants
to know your name.

- Lucy.
- Lucy what?

Just Lucy. If he could be quick,
because I have to...

Just a second while I translate.

Mr. Jang is on his way.
Stay right here.

Can I sit?

Mr. Jang said you need to stay right here.
I think it's better if you stay right here.

- (PHONE RINGING)

Lucy! Yes, I'm Lucy.

This has just been a terrible mistake.
I'm just supposed to deliver this case.

If you lost the key, you don't
have to chop off my hand.

(VOICE BREAKING)
You can just cut the chain, okay?

Please. I'm begging you, please.

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

No, no, no!

TRANSLATOR: Hello, miss. I speak
English. I translate for Mr. Jang.

(INHALES SHARPLY)

Please tell him that I haven't done

It's all just a big mistake, okay?
Please tell him that.

Yes, okay, okay. Hold on.

(TRANSLATOR SPEAKING KOREAN)

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

Mr. Jang wants to know
what's in the case.

No, I don't know what's in the case. Do you
speak English or don't you speak English?

Yes, I do. I studied one year at
International High School in New York.

Okay.

Richard gave me the case to
give to you, that's all I know.

Okay? Please tell him that.

(TRANSLATOR SPEAKING KOREAN)

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

He gave me a paper with numbers
written on it. What is this?

It's the code to open the case.

- What's really in here?
- Nothing dangerous.

So why won't he open it himself?

(TRANSLATOR SPEAKING KOREAN)

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

He doesn't trust Mr. Richard.

I don't trust Richard, either.
I only dated him for a week.

(TRANSLATOR SPEAKING KOREAN)

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

(SHOUTING)

Okay, okay, okay.

- Mr. Jang insists that you open the case.
- Okay, okay.

(SOBBING) Please, God, help me.

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

He wants you to hurry up.
Mr. Jang has other things to do.

(GASPS)

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

Can you describe the
contents of the case?

It's four plastic pouches filled
with a blue powder. Like a...

Maybe a purple powder.
I don't know. It looks gross.

NORMAN: If life starts
approximately a billion years ago,

we will have to wait 400,000 years to see
the aberration of the first nerve cells.

This is where life as
we know it begins.

Brains in formation of
only a few milligrams.

It's not possible to determine
any sign of intelligence yet.

It acts more as a reflex.

One neuron, you're alive.
Two neurons,

you're moving, and with movement,
interesting things begin to happen.

(VARIOUS ANIMALS CRYING OUT)

Animal life on Earth goes
back millions of years.

Yet most species only use 3 to
5% of its cerebral capacity.

But it isn't until we reached human
beings at the top of the animal chain

that we finally see a species use
more of its cerebral capacity.

(GRUNTING)

10% may not seem like much, but it's a
lot if you look at all we've done with it.

(GRUNTING)

NORMAN:
Now let's discuss a special case.

The only living being that
uses its brain better than us.

The dolphin.

It is estimated that
this incredible animal

uses up to 20% of its
cerebral capacity.

In particular, this allows it

to have an echolocation system

that is more efficient than any
sonar invented by mankind.

But the dolphin did not invent
the sonar, it developed it naturally.

And this is the crucial part of our
philosophical reflection we have today.

Can we therefore conclude that
humans are concerned more with

having... than being?

Lucy.

What did you do to my stomach?

MAN: Nothing! Just a little
(SNIFFLING) horizontal slit.

It's very well done. And...

You'll find within a month,
the scar is practically invisible.

So, you'll be able to show your
tummy off on the beach next summer.

I don't care about the scar.

(STAMMERING)
Is it why we opened you up, yeah?

Rest assured, we didn't harvest
your organs or anything.

We merely slipped a little
package into your lower tummy.

It's a new drug that kids in Europe
are going to love, believe me.

- What is it?
- Well, the scientific term is C.P.H.4.

Which is not very sexy from
a sales point of view.

So we're still working on something
with a bit more pop. Any suggestions?

Ah! Excuse me.

Welcome! Welcome, come on in.
Lovely! Oops!

Splendid, splendid!

(THE LIMEY LAUGHS)

Marvelous! Lovely, lovely.

Oh!

- How are you?
- MAN: Very good, my dear.

THE LIMEY: Okay.

Right. Um... First of all,

many thanks for taking
part in this enterprise,

which I'm sure will go off flawlessly.
These lovely passports and tickets

will enable you to return
home in the next 24 hours.

Now, upon arrival, you will be
taken in hand by our people,

so that we might recover
our merchandise

and you might rediscover the freedom
which you so richly deserve.

I'm sure I don't need to remind you,
but for any of those who may be tempted

to warn or turn themselves
in to the authorities,

we have the names and addresses of
the families of every one of you,

down to the most
distant cousins, right?

(COUGHS)

So, we rely, therefore,
on your complete discretion.

Good! (CLEARS THROAT)
Anyway, gentlemen, madam,

allow me to be the first
to wish you... bon voyage!

Oops. (CHUCKLES)

Lovely.

- You're gonna sell this?
- I'm afraid it's our business model.

NORMAN: For primitive beings like us,
life seems to have only one single purpose,

gaining time.

And it is going through
time that seems to be also

the only real purpose of each
of the cells in our bodies.

To achieve that aim,
the mass of the cells

that make up earthworms and human
beings has only two solutions.

Be immortal... or to reproduce.

If its habitat is not sufficiently
favorable or nurturing...

The cell will choose immortality.

In other words, self-sufficiency
and self-management.

On the other hand, if the
habitat is favorable...

They will choose to reproduce.

That way, when they die, they hand down
essential information and knowledge

to the next cell, which hands it
down to the next cell and so on.

Thus, knowledge and learning
are handed down through time.

LUCY: Okay, okay. Keep calm.
You have to wait. Just play for time.

You'll have time to think it through
on the plane. Just take the flight.

Take the flight, get out of here. That's
the main thing right now. Just save time.

Don't try anything.
Keep your cool. You're alive.

You're alive, babe. You're alive.
That's all that matters. Just wait.

Save time.

Save time.

NORMAN:
Let's imagine for a few moments

what our life would be like if
we could access, let's say,

20% of our brain's capacity.

This first stage would give us access
to and control of our own body.

- Sir?
- Yes.

Has it been proved scientifically?

For the moment, it's just hypothesis,
I confess. But if you think about it,

it's troubling to realize that the Greeks,
the Egyptians and the Indians

had notion of cells centuries before
the invention of the microscope.

And what to say about Darwin,

whom everybody took for a fool when
he put forth his theory of evolution.

It's up to us to push
the rules and laws

and go from evolution to revolution.

(ALL LAUGH)

100 billion neurons per human,
of which only 15% are activated.

There are more connections in the human
body than there are stars in the galaxy.

We possess a gigantic
network of information

to which we have almost no access.

- Sir?
- Yes.

And what will be the next stage?

Well, the next stage would probably
be control of other people.

But for that, we would need to access
at least 40% of our brain's capacity.

After control of ourselves and
others would come control of matter.

But now we're entering into
the realm of science fiction

and we don't know any more than
a dog who watches the moon.

- Excuse me, sir.
- Yes.

But what would happen if,
for some reason we ignore,

somebody unlocked 100%
of their cerebral capacity?

- 100%?
- Yes.

I have no idea.

(DOOR UNLOCKS)

(MEN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

Hey!

(SPEAKING MANDARIN)

- Hey! You speak English?

Right. I'll just administer
a local anesthetic.

Don't bother.

Right. Okay.

Calm down, please. Put the gun down.

I'm just going to examine, okay?

- Do you mind?
- No.

(DIALING)

(LINE RINGING)

- WOMAN: Hello?
- Mom?

Hey! Lucy.

Baby, it's great to hear from you!
But what time is it over there?

I don't know, it's night.

Hold on a sec, let me
get rid of the other line.

I'm going to have to go inside.

I'm back. You're not
partying too much, are you?

You promised me you'd
look after yourself.

I'm trying to, Mom.
I am trying to.

Well, thanks for calling
out of the blue like this.

Your father's gonna be sad he missed you.
He isn't home from the gym yet.

Usually, you call us in the morning.

- Mom?
- Yes?

I feel everything.

What do you mean, sweetie?

Space,

the air,

the vibrations,

the people.

I can feel the gravity.

I can feel the rotation of the Earth,

the heat leaving my body,

the blood in my veins.

I can feel my brain,

the deepest parts of my memory...

Sweetie, we have a bad connection.
I can't hear you so well.

What did you say about memory?

The pain in my mouth
when I had braces.

I can remember the feeling of your hand
on my forehead when I ran a fever.

I remember stroking
the cat, it was so soft.

The cat? What cat, honey?

A Siamese with blue
eyes and a broken tail.

Sweetie, you can't possibly remember that.
You were barely a year old.

I remember the taste of
your milk in my mouth.

The room, the liquid...

Sweetie, what are you talking about?

I just wanna tell you that
I love you, Mom and Dad.

Sweetie...

And I wanna thank you for the thousand
kisses that I can still feel on my face.

I love you, Mom.

I love you, too, sweetie.
More than anything in the world.

How much is left?

500 grams.

And how long will it take my body
to eliminate the rest of it?

To answer that, I need to
know what it is. May I?

Go ahead.

C.P.H.4.

Tell me about it.

Pregnant women manufacture C.P.H.4

in the sixth week of pregnancy
in tiny quantities.

For a baby, it packs the
power of an atomic bomb.

It's what gives the fetus the necessary
energy to form all the bones in its body.

I'd heard they tried to make
a synthetic version of it.

I didn't realize that
they'd succeeded.

If it really is C.P.H.4,

in this quantity,
I'm amazed you're still alive.

Not for long.

(SIGHS)

(CLASSICAL MUSIC

(GROANING)

Learning's always a painful process.

Like when you're little and your bones
are growing and you ache all over.

Can you believe I can remember
the sound of my own bones growing?

Like this grinding under the skin.
Everything's different now.

Like, sounds are music that
I can understand, like fluids.

It's funny, I used to be so concerned
with who I was and what I wanted to be

and now that I have access to
the furthest reaches of my brain,

I see things clearly and realize that
what makes us us it's primitive.

They're all obstacles.
Does that make any sense?

Like this pain you're experiencing.
It's blocking you from understanding.

All you know now is pain.
That's all you know, pain.

Where are the others?

The others carrying the drugs. I need
the rest of it, for medicinal purposes.

Thank you for sharing.

(SHUDDERING, SCREAMING)

- Bonsoir, Albert.

- Do we have you for dinner tonight?
- I'm afraid so. I'm exhausted.

- Have a good rest.
- Thank you.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

(SNARLS)

You scared the shit out of me,
ringing that bell like some nutbar!

I missed you.

Me, too.

- Yeah, you lose your keys or something?
- Yeah.

- Can I borrow your laptop?
- Yeah, of course.

So I spent all of yesterday in
auditions, which are awesome.

They just have you
standing around all day

because they don't give a shit about
your time gabbing away in Chinese.

Who understands Chinese?
I don't understand Chinese.

And then they say they're always
gonna call, and they never do,

because they don't even take
your phone number. You know?

Except this one guy,
but he's not Chinese.

He works at the agency and he's cute.

Oh, my God, he's cute. In the
cute-and-I-kinda-know-it kinda way.

Like he had this thing...
Oh, my God, and his ass!

Phew! Let me get started on that!

And you are never gonna
guess where he took me.

BOTH: Four Seasons, Royal Suites,
and we made love all night.

I'm sorry, I'm talking about myself.
What's up? How's Richard?

He's dead.

You guys are crazy.
I'm gonna take a shower.

(PHONE RINGING)

- Yes?
- LUCY: Professor Norman, my name's Lucy.

I just read all your research on
the human brain. We need to meet.

(CHUCKLES)

All of my research?
Well, I'm very flattered, young lady,

but I find that hard to believe.
I must have written no less than...

6,734 pages. I can recite them
to you all by heart, if you wish.

Are you one of Emily's friends?

This sounds like one of her silly jokes.
Is she there with you?

No, I'm all on my own.

- Who are you?
- I just told you.

Uh...

Lucy, right? Yes, sorry.

I read your theory on the
use of the brain's capacity.

It's a little rudimentary,
but you're on the right track.

Thank you.

Professor, my cells are reproducing
at a phenomenal speed.

Several million per second.

I'm having trouble precisely
evaluating the time of my death,

- but I doubt I'll last more than 24 hours.
- What are you talking about?

What I'm saying is that your
theory is not a theory.

I absorbed a large quantity
of synthetic C.P.H.4.

that will allow me to use
100% of my cerebral capacity.

Right now, I'm at 28%,
and what you wrote is true.

Once the brain reaches 20%,
it opens up and expands the rest.

There are no more obstacles.
They fall away like dominoes.

I'm colonizing my own brain.

Well, (CLEARS THROAT)
I don't know what to... say.

It's true, I've been working on
this theory for over 20 years,

but it's only ever been
hypotheses and research ideas.

I never thought anyone would...

- You can control your own metabolism?
- Yes.

And I can start to control
other people's bodies.

Also, I can control magnetic
and electric waves.

Not all of them, just the most basic.

Television. Telephone.

(TELEPHONE RINGING)

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

- Radio.
- (RADIO SWITCHING STATIONS)

That's amazing.

I don't feel pain,

fear, desire.

It's like all things that make
us human are fading away.

It's like the less human I feel,

all this knowledge about everything,

quantum physics, applied mathematics,

the infinite capacity
of a cell's nucleus.

They're all exploding inside
my brain, all this knowledge.

I don't know what to do with it.

If you're asking me what to do...

You know,

if you think about...
the very nature of life,

I mean, from the very beginning,

the development of the first cell

that divided into two cells.

The sole purpose of life has been

to pass on what was learned.

There was no higher purpose.

So if you're asking me what to do with all
this knowledge you're accumulating, I'd say

pass it on.

Just like any simple cell

going through time.

Time.

Yes, of course.

I'll be at your door in 12 hours.

- You're leaving?
- Yes.

- What is this?
- A prescription.

Since when did you start
writing in Chinese?

- Since an hour ago.
- Luce, I don't understand any of this.

Your kidneys aren't functioning
efficiently, your liver's failing you.

You need to make some
lifestyle changes.

Take this medication, work out,
eat organic. You'll be okay.

DEL RIO: Hello?

I have important information
about a group of drug traffickers.

I need to speak with someone
in a position of authority.

Aha. You're very lucky, there's no one with
more authority in this office than me.

But let's start at the beginning.
What is your name?

Listen up, Pierre Del Rio.
Get off your desk, sit in your chair,

pick up the red pen to the left of
you and take down everything I say.

There are no cameras. Hurry up!
I've no time to waste.

Go ahead.

I'm gonna be sending you the details of
three people about to arrive in Europe.

Each one is carrying a kilo of drugs.
I need you to arrest them

and collect the substance.
I'll need it for later.

What form are these drugs in?
Bars? Capsules?

Powder. Hidden in plastic pouches
inside their intestines.

Excuse me?

Make sure to be careful when you remove
them. The product is very powerful.

You should wipe your nose.

- Excuse me?
- May I have a glass of champagne?

Um, yes. Of course.

Could you bring some champagne
to the girl over there?

Yeah, I just have a nosebleed.

Miss, your champagne.

Thank you.

I'm very sorry, but you really
need to close your table now.

Sure.

To knowledge.

If the habitat is not sufficiently
favorable or nurturing...

- Are you sure?

She's sitting on the bed.

That's her.

- You didn't restrain her?
- Sure, we did!

Miss! Don't move.

I need to talk to you alone.

And I need you to put
your hands up, please.

Did you get the packets?

Yes.

- Where are they?
- They're safe.

- Here, in Paris.
- They'll be safer in my hands.

(IN FRENCH)
Don't leave the car there. Park it up.

(CELL PHONE BEEPS)

You know, as a cop you
see some pretty weird shit.

But I have to be honest with you. What
you did back there, that freaked me out.

To put everyone to sleep like that.
Do I need to be worried?

No.

Good.

(INDISTINCT VOICES CHATTERING)

(MAN'S VOICE GROWS LOUDER)

Do you mind?

No.

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

- What's that?
- Korean. I'm gonna drive.

Hey! No, no, no.
This is a police car!

You can't. No, this is not possible,
lady. This is a police car.

Okay, okay.

(SPEAKING FRENCH)

Let's go, guys!

Sir, sir, excuse me, sir.
I need to talk to somebody.

(IN FRENCH) Talk to the police.

Look, I'm a German citizen
and I demand to see a lawyer.

(IN FRENCH) I'll check with Surgery.

- Grab us some food.
- You're a foodaholic.

(TIRES SCREECHING)

- Do you always drive like that?
- I've never driven before.

Great.

- Hey, that's one-way.
- We're late.

- Hey, I'd rather be late than dead.
- We never really die.

Sorry, sir. I don't feel good.

(MAN GRUNTS)

(PANTING)

I'm fine. I'm fine.

(CARS HONKING)

(SIRENS WAILING)

- I'm gonna tell them to stop following us.
- Don't bother.

(BEEPING)

(IN FRENCH) I got you bacon...

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

- Give me the case.
- (LAUGHS)

(IN KOREAN)
Kill her and get the pouch.

(GRUNTS)

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

Don't stand there, kill her!

Ahhh!

(GROANING)

Open it.

(SQUELCHING)

Let's go.

I'm not sure I could be
of any help for you.

Yes, you are.

What for?

A reminder.

Shall we go?

(PEOPLE CLAMORING)

Where are we going?

ELECTRONIC VOICE:
Take the first left.

Okay.

(OFFICER IN FRENCH) Move!

(IN KOREAN) Follow that car.

- (CELL PHONE RINGING)
- Professor?

- Hello?
- Lucy.

Oh! It's her! It's her! Hey, you.

- You're in Paris?
- Yes, I am.

Good, good! Excellent.

So, look, I am no longer
at the hotel now.

I have come to the university,
where I've taken the liberty

of calling together a few of my
colleagues to discuss your case.

Top minds in their field
and very trustworthy.

- I trust you.
- Oh, thank you.

So, do you think you could meet us

- here at the university?
- (LINE DISCONNECTS)

I'm, uh...

- I'm very pleased to meet you.
- Likewise.

- Captain Del Rio.
- How do you do?

Um...

Let me introduce you
to my colleagues.

- This is Professor Cartier, neurosurgeon.
- I know who everyone is.

Of course.

Gentlemen, this is Lucy,
the first woman to... I mean...

As I mentioned earlier, Miss Lucy has,
for reasons that remain a mystery to me,

unlocked certain
portions of her brain

that offer access to previously
unexplored cerebral zones.

She has abilities.

Can you give us an example?

Your daughter, Gabrielle,
age six, died in a car accident.

It was a blue car, leather seats, plastic
bird hanging from the rear view mirror.

(SOBBING)

(IN KOREAN) Boss, 5 men
down at the hospital. Sorry.

- How many men left?
- I have about 25 with me.

That damn girl, she doesn't
give in. She's a witch.

I know that.

I'll kill her myself.

There are men coming here. Can you
secure the room? I need to stay focused.

Sure.

(SIRENS WAILING)

(IN KOREAN) Speed it up.

(OFFICERS SHOUTING)

How did you manage to
access all this information?

Electrical impulses. Every cell
knows and talks to every other cell.

They exchange a thousand bits of
information between them per second.

Cells group together,
forming a giant web of communication,

which in turn forms matter.

Cells get together, take on one form,

deform, reform. Makes no difference,
it's all the same.

Humans consider themselves unique,
so they've rooted their whole theory

of existence on their uniqueness.
"One" is their unit of measure.

But it's not. All social systems we've
put into place are a mere sketch.

One plus one equals two.
That's all we've learned.

But one plus one has
never equaled two.

There are, in fact,
no numbers and no letters.

We've codified our existence
to bring it down to human size

to make it comprehensible.

We've created a scale so that we
can forget its unfathomable scale.

But if humans are not
the unit of measure

and the world isn't governed
by mathematical laws,

what governs all that?

Film a car speeding down a road.
Speed up the image infinitely

and the car disappears.

So what proof do we
have of its existence?

Time gives legitimacy to its existence.
Time is the only true unit of measure.

It gives proof to the
existence of matter.

Without time,

we don't exist.

Time is unity.

(ALARMS BLARING)

(IN KOREAN) Search the whole
building and find her!

We won't be able to hold
them for much longer.

Time to go then.

Are you sure you need such huge doses?
I'm afraid you won't survive.

Some cells inside me will fight and
defend their integrity till the very end.

In order to attain the last
few percent, I have to force it

to crack the cells
open to their nucleus.

(SIGHS)

But all of this knowledge, Lucy...

I'm not even sure that
mankind is ready for it.

We're so driven by power and profit.

Given man's nature,

it might bring us only
instability and chaos.

Ignorance brings chaos,
not knowledge.

I'll build a computer and
download all my knowledge in it.

I'll find a way for you
to have access to it.

Yeah.

I just hope we will be
worthy of your sacrifice.

Nobody move!

(BREATHING DEEPLY)

Do you understand English?

(GUNFIRE)

(GASPING)

PROFESSOR: What is she doing?

NORMAN:
She's looking for energy and matter.

And she's trying to connect
with our computers.

- (IN KOREAN) Chong-Ju!
- I'm here, boss.

- Do something about them.
- Okay, boss!

You guys, come on.

Ready?

(IN FRENCH) You okay?

Get a medic. Fast!

PROFESSOR 1:
Oh, my God. What's happening?

- PROFESSOR 2: What is she making?
- New generation computer, I presume.

(IN KOREAN) Where is she?

Where is she? Answer me.

Answer me!

Hey, you!

(BREATHING DEEPLY)

PROFESSOR:
Look. The computer, it's moving.

DEL RIO: Hey. Where is she?

(CELL PHONE BEEPS)

LUCY: Life was given to
us a billion years ago.

Now you know what to do with it.
