All language subtitles for The Orville S02E11

A find of this type is always
thrilling in this day and age.

The time capsule was unearthed
by an excavation team

just north of Albany.

It seems it was acommunity
project of some kind.

How far back does it date?

Over 400 years.
2015, to be exact.

The Delta Pavonis Museum
is itching for its arrival.

Well, we'll get it all there
in one piece.

What do you think?

You lose the ears,
you look like a born Earther.

What are these?

Cigarettes.

People used to light the tips
on fire and inhale the smoke.

Why?

They contained a substance
called nicotine,

which caused an addictive rush.

That is, until they got cancer,

which, at the time,
was often fatal.

The odor is very interesting.

Dr. Sherman, what's this thing?

A communication device.

A cellular telephone.

We think there still may be

information stored in there,

but the circuitry
is so degraded,

we haven't been able
to reactivate it.

Well, I got a top-notch
engineering team.

We'd be happy to take
a stab at it.

I was hoping you would.

Maybe we can get in
through the back door.

How about running
a decorrelation algorithm

on the secondary memory cache?

I tried it. Nothing.

Well, then, I'm tapped out
of ideas, man.

God, it's so frustrating.

There's a whole piece
of the past

all locked away in that thing,
and we can't get at it.

Well, wait a minute,
hang on here.

We've been coming at this from
a 25th century perspective.

Maybe, if I can dumb down the
reconstruction pattern a bit.

There.

Okay, I'm launching anold-school
binary input filter.

Now, if we can get a bias
current on the cathode tab...

There.

We got power.

- Well, that's weird.
- What?

I've accessed the data, but
the keypad's not responding.

Try turning it off

and turning it back on again.

Boom. There it is.

Look at that.

They're messages.

Correspondences between people.
They just go on and on.

Yeah, got to be
thousands of them.

Casual chitchat
four centuries old.

Amazing.

Wait. What's this up here?

Looks like some kind of
old-style media storage.

Okay. Hey, what's up,
future people?

Hi.

I'm Laura Huggins.

And, if you're seeing this,

you found my phone.

So... I'm from
Saratoga Springs, New York,

and some people in my town
had this idea

to make a time capsule.

And I thought this was a
really cool thing to do,

and I was trying to think of

what I could put in there
that would show the future

something about who I am.

And since I just got
the new iPhone, I thought,

instead of sticking my old one
in a drawer somewhere,

I'd put it in the capsule.

So... here I am.

Here you are.

And since I'm probably
long dead by now,

you can read all my texts
and e-mails

and look at all my pictures
and decide

whether you think I was...
I don't know...

cool or a bitch or whatever.

Anyway, I hope you guys

have, like, flying cars
or something by now,

and if you do,
I'm super jealous. And...

I'm really sorry I'm not there
to hang with you guys.

Um... but... hey.

Have fun getting to know
who I was.

Nice to meet you, Laura.

Commander,
this is extraordinary.

You've uncovered
a treasure trove.

I upgraded
the power storage capacity,

so it should last you ten
yearswithout a refill.

It'll take at least that long
to analyze all this data.

We are looking
at an actual human life,

nearly 400 years gone.

Looks like they weren't
all that different from us.

Well, ancient media records
tell us

what the world wanted us to see,

but finds like this can help
tell us who the people were.

Look at all these messages.

It's like reading
a different language.

Look at this.

She's clearly asking her friend

where to find the nearest
repair service for her device,

but instead of writing
"wirelesstelecommunications facility,"

she just wrote "WTF."

Now, we can decode things
like this

by applying historical context.

Amazing.

Kind of mesmerizing, isn't it?

Yeah.

Yeah, it seems like her friends
really depended on her.

There are all these messages

where they're coming to her
with their problems, and

she's kind of like the glue
holding them all together.

I bet she would've been
a cool person to know.

Excuse me, Doctor.
Commander Grayson would like

to review cargo transport
procedure for docking.

Of course. Lead the way.

What is it?

It is called a cigarette.

The aroma is most pleasing.

Yes. Dr. Finn says

it is the result of...

What are you doing?

I was curious to taste it.

It is not food.

Dr. Finn said the tip is to be
ignited and the smoke inhaled.

The sensation is... wonderful.

I have never experienced
such a flavor.

I feel as if I have been
standing my entire life,

and I just sat down.

The tingles. Do you feel them?

I do.

We must have more.

500 cigarettes.

Please select a program.

Well, I actually want to createa
new program, if I could.

Please enter specifications.

Well, see, here's the thing.

Um, the specifications arekind
of all inside this device.

Is there a way to upload

the content into the
simulator'sprocessing systems?

The photographs,
videos, messages, all of it?

Scanning.

The device is not recognized.

It's a cellular telephone.

The device is recognized.

Scanning.

Upload complete.

Please specify
application parameters.

No specific parameters.

I just want
to know who this woman was,

what her life was like.

Can you extrapolate
from all available data

on the device
and create a simulation?

Processing.

Simulation complete.

Begin simulation.

Ooh. Sorry, man.

Hey. Nice outfit.

Crap.

I'm all out of vodka.
Chardonnay?

- Totally fine.
- It's all right?

Yeah, yeah.
It's better, actually.

I hardly ever do
the hard stuff anymore,

- unless I'm with Jen.
- Right. Yeah.

She's such a good influence.

Total role model.

- Cheers!
- Laura?

Wait. Are you Lorenzo's friend?

I'm... Yeah.

Yes. Yes, I am.

Wait. I-I'm so sorry.
I suck at names.

- Gordon.
- Gordon. Right.

This is my friend Trisha.

- Hey.
- Hey.

That's an interesting
wardrobe choice.

Yeah. I...

Are those pajamas,
or are you a NASCAR driver?

Wait. Let me guess.

Are you in a marching band?

I lost a bet with Lorenzo,

so I had
to come here in m-my pajamas.

- That sounds like Lorenzo.
- Yep.

- That's Lorenzo.
- I know.

It's so Lorenzo, right?

He... he's such a tool.

But he's the best,
though.-The best... tool.

The best. Don't you forget it.

It's too bad
he couldn't make it.

Tell him he owes me
a round of drinks.

Speaking of,
can I get you something?

Um... yeah. Just a beer is fine.

Thanks.

I-I like your place.

It's so cute, right?

I just moved in.
Do you want the tour?

Yeah. Yeah, definitely.

It would've been too depressing

to stay in my old place
after the breakup.

I won't bore you with
the details, but it was messy.

I'm sure Lorenzo told you.

Sorry. That's got to be tough.

Yeah.
We were together nine years.

Wow. I've never even owned
a shirt that long.

We almost broke up a dozen
times, but this one stuck.

Anyway, it's small,
and I'm not done decorating,

but, yeah,
it's-it's pretty homey.

What do you do?

I'm a sales manager at Macy's.

- Cool.
- Yeah, right.

I want to slit my wrists
every time I say it.

So... so you're not happy there?

Do you know anyone
who's happy in a sales job?

Well, um,
what-what do you want to do?

Get ready for the big clich�.

Um, my real passion is music.

I know that I would starve
to death if I ever actually

pursued it as a career, but

- there you have it.
- You sing?

Yeah. One of the millions.

What do you do?

Well, I'm-I'm...

I'm a... I'm a pilot.

- You are?
- Yeah.

My God, that's so cool.

In the Air Force,
or commercial jets or what?

Commercial jets.

That's insane.
I'm so scared of flying.

I'm one
of those white-knuckle types.

You would not want
to sit next to me.

Actually, I think I would.

You know, if it doesn't sound
like torture,

I am actually playing a gig
at this pub

over on Dunhill next Tuesday,
if you want to come.

It-It's a total
hole-in-the-wall,

but they pour
the drinks strong, so...

Hey, you-you had me
at playing a gig,

but strong drinks is a bonus.

That-that'd be awesome.

Yeah. Tuesday. Count me in.

Okay, cool.

It was just so vivid and real.

I mean, I've been
in some intense simulations,

but this was different.

Nobody wrote this program.

There was no sense of structure.
It was all just created

from her own words
and pictures and thoughts.

No, it was her... her life.

And I was there.

Does Dr. Sherman know
you did this?

No, no, but I put the phone
backwith the other stuff.

Nobody missed it.

Here's the thing.

We look at these images

of people who lived hundreds
of years ago,

and they're so distant-looking

that it's easy to think
that they don't matter.

But then you stand in a room

like that, and you realize...

this used to be their world.

And it was just as alive
to themas ours is to us.

Hey, man, you didn't do, like,
drugs in there, right?

No, no, no, no. This is...
It's a totally natural high.

I just felt like I saw
the universe in a new light,

and it was a rush.

Okay, I hear you.

Just keep a sanity check
on all this.

All right? I know it seems real,

but it's not.

It's a computer simulation.

That girl's been deadfor
three and a half centuries.

I know.

God. They were on the verge
of a major climate disaster,

and there's a whole page
about teeth whitening.

It's a miracle
the human race survived.

Keyali to Grayson.

- Go ahead.
- Can you please come to the bridge?

There's, um... there's an issue.

On my way.

What's wrong?

What's that smell?

Commander.

You know, Bortus,

your shift is over soon,

so why don't you
just knock off early.

Are you certain?

Yeah, go. It's all good.

Thank you, Commander.

Ed and I will talk to him.

Resume simulation.

Every time I'm up there,
I have this fantasy

about some big record exec

watching me from the crowd
and signing me on the spot.

Then I get to call my boss
and say,

"Stick your designer handbags
up your butt.

I quit."

That's beautiful.

I still can't believe
how good you are.

Tell it to my landlord.

No, seriously, I-I think
if the right person heard you,

you'd be a huge success.

But I don't even have to be
a hugesuccess.

I just want to be rich enough
to be unhappy

but not enough to be miserable.

Fair enough.

No, more important than that,
I just think it would be nice

to be remembered for something.

You know?

I mean, we all live and die
on this planet, and...

most of us are just forgotten.

To me, there's nothing sadder
about the world than that.

Well, a-as someone

who's been knownto belt
out a tune now and then,

I think I know a thing or two
about music.

You're the real deal.

You sing?

Yeah. Took lessons
when I was teenager

as soon as I figured outit
was a good way to get girls.

Well, maybe we'll haveto do
a song together sometime.

Just rattle my cage.
I'll come out.

Okay.

So, if I can ask...

what happened
with your last relationship?

It was a lot of things.

And by the time I met him,

I'd been with enough losers
that I was pretty cynical.

I mean, let's face it.

In this town, most guys
aren't worth a second date.

But Greg was different.

That-that's my dad's name.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Is he a pilot, too?

No, no. Construction.

He builds space stations.

Toy space stations f-for kids.

Little-little toy space stations

with nougat in the center.
That kind of thing..

So, you were saying
about your Greg?

Well, he was passionate
and intelligent and funny,

and I fell for him
almost immediately.

But he was irresponsible.

He never really had
a steady job.

He wasn't interested
in being an adult.

And as much
as we loved each other,

I think I just got tiredof
paying for dinner.

You're a really good listener.

Ha! That's hilarious.

Why?

Well, where I come from,
people think

I'm the guy that never knows
when to shut up.

I don't see that at all.

Well, I guess
I'm just different around you.

I've never met anybody like you.

You must not meet many girls.

No, no, I meet a lot of girls.

Really?

No, I-I didn't mean...

I don't... I don't do stuff

with a lot of girls.
I... I just...

Where I'm from,

you're one of a kind.

And where are you from?

New Jersey.

They don't have retail workers

with failing music careers
in New Jersey?

Not in my neighborhood.

What is it?

It's my number.

I realized I never gave it
to you at the party.

- Cool.
- I have a game night

with some friends
at my place once a week.

We're having it tomorrow night
if you want to come.

- Yeah, that'd be great.
- Yeah?

And bring some of your friends.

The more the merrier.

S... My-my friends?

Yeah, and what's your number?
I'll put it in my phone.

You know,
I-I left my phone at home,

but I'll call you
as soon as I get back.

Please state request.

Um, a-a phone.

Old Earth style.

What?

No, no, no. Later.

Like, a cell phone.
Early 21st century design.

And establish a link up to
Simulator program Laura Alpha.

Please narrow parameters.

Laura's phone.

838-555-0146.

The museum has requested
a Class 3 cargo transfer

- for the capsule.
- That's fine.

Also, they asked if we cansend
down an engineering detail

to help them out with the phone.

If you can spare the personnel,
then sure.

Come in.

Hey, guys.

Hey. Gordon, what's up?

Well, actually,
I'm glad you're all here.

Um... I don't know what you
guysare doing tomorrow night,

but would you want to go
to a party with me?

Sure. Whose party?

It's Laura's.

Laura from sickbay?

No.

Laura Huggins.

Girl from the phone.

I don't understand.

I uploaded all
of her personal data

from the phone
into the ship's computer

and was able to create
a simulation.

Of?

Of her.

Of her life. Her world.

I've been spending time
with her,

getting to know who she was.

That kind of thing.

Okay.

Look, I-I know it sounds
crazy, but she really is a...

wasa special person.

I would love you guys
to meet her.

Look, just come to Simulator 2
tomorrow at 1900 hours,

and you'll see.

Okay. We'll see you there.

Awesome!
You-You're gonna love her.

Did you know about this?

I heard about it,
but I haven't seen it yet.

You think he's working too hard?

Gordon? Never.

Well, this ought
to be interesting.

There was something elseyou
wanted to talk to me about.

Right.

Take a walk with me?

My God.

Captain. What can I do for you?

Guys, what the hell is this?

Our quarters.

Where's Topa?

He has not yet returned
from school.

Okay, look, I don't know
what's going on here,

but we are all going
to sickbay right now.

For what reason?

Well, you boys continue
to be full of surprises.

What is it?

Apparently,
the Moclan biological system

is extremely susceptible
to nicotine addiction.

Is there precedent for this?

Nobody on Earth has smoked

for hundreds of years,
let alone Moclus.

This is new territory.

Are we in any danger?

What happens
if you don't have a cigarette

for more than a half hour?

I do not know.

- Boy.
- Yesterday,

I was stuck in the lift
for ten minutes

due to a power fluctuation.

I had no cigarettes with me.

I began to shake.

It did not stop until I smoked.

Well, my analysis indicates
that, if you keep it up,

it's only gonna get worse,

until, eventually,
you'll reach a point

where you can't go ten seconds
without a puff.

Can't you just give 'em
an injection of some kind,

get 'em off the habit?

Normally, yes,

but, at the moment,
there is no injection.

These two are patient one
and patient zero.

I'll have to formulate one.

How long will that take?

Maybe hours, maybe days.

In the meantime, Topa can stay
with Ty and Marcus.

Very well, Doctor.

You understand
that you two are gonna need

to support each other in this,
okay?

No smoking.

- A man... he's hungry.
- Cornflakes! Cornflakes! -He's pouring cereal!

Ceral! A man who likes cereal!

- Cornflakes! Cornflakes!
- A man and cereal! A man who likes cereal!

A man who's full of
cereal!-Cere... It's cereal man!

Don't just keep stopping at thesame thing!
Draw something new!

Cere... It's cereal man!
It's cereal man.

Right?

It's a cereal man! Hello?
Is it a... Is it cereal man?

- It's a man who likes cereal. Cereal man.
- Karl,

what the hell is a cereal man?

I don't know. That.

And time.

It was Julius Caesar!

- What?
- What? -Yeah.

See, this is the laurel
around his head.

Gordon, that just looks
like hair.

What was the cereal?

It's a Caesar salad.

Yeah. See, no, you can't draw.-Come on!

A salad doesn't have
tiny little flakes like that.

- They're bigger.
- A Cobb salad does.

What the hell does a Cobb saladhave
to do with Julius Caesar?

Anybody know what time it is?

I think it's got to be
about 2300 hours.

Military time.

Is that, like, a hipster thing?

No, Trisha, it's not.

Listen, guys,
this has been a blast,

but I really do have
to get up early tomorrow,

- so...
- Yeah. Me, too.

This was so fun though.

- Thank you for coming.
- Laura, it was

- very nice to meet you.
- My God, it was so nice to meet you.

- Your place is really cute.
- Congrats.

I don't know about you guys,

but I need a shot of booze
and 20 hours of sleep.

We should talk about this
tomorrow.

How 'bout we meet
in the mess hall?

I think that's a good idea.

Okay. Good night.

- Night.
- Night.

Your friends are great.

I really liked 'em.

Man, they totally dug you.
I could tell.

Yeah? Even though we burnedtheir
asses at Pictionary?

Yeah, well, you did most
of the heavy lifting there.

Sorry again
about the Dick Van Dyke one.

I-I didn't know who he was,

so I was just working
with what I had.

It's all right.
Everyone was... fine.

That's why I'm a pilot,
not a painter.

Okay, so here's a question
for you, Mr. Pilot.

Can you make me
not scared to fly?

Um... yeah.

"Um... yeah"?

I mean, I can try.

What-what are you
most afraid of?

Turbulence.

That's never gonna hurt you.

But why?

Well, here's why the physics

are in your favor.

Okay,
picture the plane suspended

in a giant mound of Jell-O.

Okay, now, when there's
turbulence, it's almost like

someone's shaking
the Jell-O plate, okay?

Now, you're gonna get
bounced around,

but, other than that,
you're not going anywhere.

You're gonna stay
right where you are,

inside that Jell-O.

- You see?
- Yeah. Actually helps.

Right? So, next time
you're on a bumpy flight,

just picture jiggling Jell-O.

And knock back five
or six cocktails.

You'll be fine.

That's just for explaining
the physics of turbulence?

And for everything else.

Grayson to Malloy.

Grayson to Malloy.

It's 0830 hours.
You're late for your shift.

Crap.

Save simulation.

I know, I know. I screwed up.

It won't happen again.
I promise.

See that it doesn't.

We're not running
a cruise ship here.

We need our helmsman
at his post.

Yes, sir.
Hear you loud and clear.

Captain, engineering shows
all clear for departure.

All right, take us out.

Aye, sir.

Bortus, what are you eating?

I apologize, Captain.

Am I disturbing you?

No, I'm just curious.

It is called gum.

According
to the ship's database,

it was once used
as an addiction recovery aid.

Is it helping?

It is not.

Hey. I'm-I'm at work.
Can I call you back?

I know. I know.
It was so amazing.

I-I can't stop thinking
about it.

Rawr.

Okay, I'll-I'll call you later.

Yeah. All the kisses.

Bye.

It was, without a doubt,

among the top five strangest
experiences of my life.

Well, the question is,
what do we do about it?

I could put a block
on the program,

tell him he can have it backwhen
it stops affecting his job.

Like pulling cigarettes away
from Bortus?

Yeah, I don't know ifthat's
gonna work in this case.

Heads up.

Hey, guys.

Hey.

Sorry again about this morning.

But, listen,
I've been dying to know.

What did you think of Laura?

She's... really fun.

Seems like she was
a really cool person.

When she was alive.

I'm telling you,
she's the coolest.

Ooh, wait. Look what
she sent me this morning.

Check it out. She says,

"Found this picture of you."
Look it.

Yeah, yeah, looks just like you.

Ha! Shut up, man.

Listen, we wanted to talk
to youabout all this,

if you don't mind.

Sure. What's up?

We...

don't think
this is particularly healthy.

What do you mean?

Dude, she's not real.

Yes, she is.

In-in all the ways that matter,

she's real.

It's a simulation.

It's just like...

our cowboy program
or Bortus' sex lagoon.

No, it's not.
And-and here's why.

Those are all programs
written by us.

I mean, not the sex lagoon,
but somebody wrote that, too.

This-this is different.

This-this comes entirely
from her personality.

Her letters, her photographs,

her voice, her mannerisms...

It's all her.

She wrote this program
about herself.

That's a real stretch, Gordon.

Why?

Because she's technically
not flesh and blood,

she can't be real?

I mean, what does that say
about Isaac?

Isaac is self-aware.

Is he? Do we really know that?

Or is he just so sophisticated
that he can fool us all?

And, if so,
wh-what does it matter?

He seems real.
We treat him that way.

So, in our world, he is.

The universe is not governed
by individual perception.

It matters what's true.

And you can't just...

I can't just what?

Find love?

You know,
this is the first person

I've been involved with
on this ship.

I'm not allowed to be happy?

You can bang a Krill,

but I can't date
a sales rep at Macy's?

She lied to me.

I didn't lie to myself.

There's a difference.

Permission to return to my post.

Granted.

Klyden?

Locate Klyden.

Klyden is located
in airlock two.

It was only one.

Where is the harm?

If you do not treat this
in a serious manner,

you will not be able to quit!

Yes, I will!

And stop shouting at me!

I will stop shouting
when I see evidence

that you are as committed
as I am!

What is this?

The hour grows late.

I must be on the bridge
at 0800...

Do not change the subject.

You are berating me while
youyourself are hiding cigarettes!

That is not mine.

You lie. Where are the others?

There are no others.

If you do not tell me
where they are,

I will sleep elsewhere tonight.

There.

From now on,
we will watch each other.

Yes.

Closely.

Resume simulation.

- You like that?
- I do.

I was lonely.

Yeah?

Gordon...

Hey. Um...

I just got off work.

I thought I'd stop by.

Um... this is Greg.

Hey, Gordon.

Heard a lot about you.

Yeah, I-I've heard about you,
too.

You know what,
I'm gonna go grab a beer.

Anybody want one?

No, I'm-I'm okay.

Right.

I was gonna call you.

Well, I'm here, so...

you don't have to call.

No, I don't.

My God, you must thinkl'm a
terrible person right now.

I don't know what to think. I-I
don't know what's going on.

Greg and I...

Do you want to sit down?

No, I-I don't...
I don't want to sit down.

I-I want to hear
the rest of that sentence.

Whatever it is,
just tell me the truth.

Greg and I have decided
to try and work things out.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

I never expected any of this,
including you.

If I had,
I would have never led you on.

No, no. It's all, it's all good.

Hey, it's not my first rodeo.

They always go back
to their boyfriends.

- Gordon...
- Yeah, it's one of the main reasons

to be in a relationship
in the first place, right?

To have someone to go back to.

You have every right
to be angry.

- Let me just...
- I'm not angry.

I'm fine.

If it's what you feel,
it's what you feel.

I'd understand if you told me

you don't want
to see me anymore.

But I hope there's
at least a possibility

that maybe we could be friends.

I know that's a lot to ask.

I shouldn't have been surprised.

It wasall right there in her messages.

They got back together.

She even told her friend Trisha

she could see herself
marrying him.

I'm sorry, man.

I know how you're feeling
right now.

Do you?

No. No, actually I don't.

I've never been dumped.

Even the worst breakup
I ever had, the girl was like,

"You could still come over
and have sex with me

whenever you want."

But... but I can imagine,

and... it sucks.

Listen, for what it's worth,

I think in the long run
it's for the best.

It was getting out of hand.

It was a fantasy.
In the real world,

you can't just conjure up
a girlfriend.

Some parts of your life
are just...

just out of your control.

Access simulation, Laura Alpha.

Simulation accessed.

Delete Greg.

Hi there.
What are you doing here?

I, had a little free time,
so I thought, why not stop by?

You came for the free
cologne samples, admit it.

Exactly. You got me.

I-I can smell them from here.

Well, it'll smell even better
tomorrow, fingers crossed.

- Tomorrow?
- The promotion.

Right.

Can I get you anything?

We have bottled water, but I
can't vouch for the brand.

I think they might be
getting it from the tap.

No, I'm okay.

Hey, if-if you
do get this... promotion,

what do you say
I take you out to celebrate?

Big, gluttonous
pasta dinner, on me,

guaranteed to go
straight to your ass.

Well, that sounds really nice,

but I think my boyfriend might
want to take me if it happens.

Your... boyfriend?

Yeah. But you're
really sweet to offer.

Is it Greg?

Greg, Justin, Andrew...
There are so many,

I can't remember which one.

Guess I'll just have to find out

when he picks me up around 730.

Don't be late, boyfriend.

Okay. Awesome. Awesome.

So, I had kind of a crazy idea,
and I wanted to run it by you.

Shoot.

Well, since I now know the
secret of the jiggling Jell-O,

I was thinking maybe...

I'd buy a ticket
on one of your flights...

Preferably someplace tropical...

And we could have
a week away somewhere.

There's no way I'd be scared

with Captain Malloy
at the controls.

Well, I'll make you a deal.

You can fly on one of my planes

if I can sing with you
some night at the pub.

The pub?

The pub where you sing.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about us,
singing together on stage.

- In front of people?
- Yeah.

Are you nuts?

No, thanks.

I don't want to go to Maui
that bad.

What? I don't understand.
You s... you sing.

Yeah, I love to sing, but not
in front of an audience.

My God, I'd have a heart attack.

Besides, if I'm gonna be
the boss around here,

I have to project
a veneer of power.

Can't be puking from terror
in a roomful of strangers.

What if one of them wants
to buy a handbag the next day?

Right. That would be a concern.-So...

back to the proposal at hand.

How about it?
Should I buy a new swimsuit?

Hold simulation.

Explain the change
from previous configuration.

Data has been deleted.

Well, can you fix it?

Affirmative. Missing algorithms

require reintegration.

You mean Greg?

Affirmative.

Come in.

Hey.

Ed told me what happened.

It's all right here
in the phone data.

He was the one
that encouraged her to sing.

Helped her believe
that she was good enough

to do what she loved.

Watch this.

You see it?

I can cross one eye at a time.

So what?

Ed taught me how to do that.

It is a characteristic
of Kelly Grayson

that exists only because
of my relationship with him.

No Ed, no eye trick.

That's a hell
of a romantic legacy.

Now, imagine the reverse.

If someone went
and deleted Ed from my life.

No captain's chair,
no... Orville.

For any of us.

Humans are social animals.

When we're born,
we're a blank slate,

and over the course
of our lives, we...

expand and growas a result
of external stimuli.

Pretty dry philosophy.

It sounds it, but it's not.

Every single one of us
is shaped by the totality

of our relationships.

People we love andpeople we hate

all make their mark.

Whether we like it or not,
it's who we are; It's reality.

You can't just pick and choose

which parts of your past
you want to change

and be able to know
how it's all gonna turn out.

What if I never meet
anybody else

who makes me feel like she does?

I can't answer that.

What I can tell you for sure

is the second
you started editing her world,

it became unreal.

Just another simulation

written by Gordon Malloy.

God, I'm gonna miss her.

So much.

People have been living
and dying

for as long as humans
have existed.

Most are forgotten...

but not this one.

She reached across
four centuries and got a guy

to fall in love.

We should all be so rare.

Where is the Nock'tahsauce?

- You ate the last of it.
- I did not!

I only had one spoonful!

That is a lie! I watched you
put it on your prawguscake!

Bortus, I must have a cigarette!

No! We agreed!

I do not care!

The urge is too strong!

If you attempt to approach
thesynthesizer, you will regret it.

My...

What the hell
is going on in here?

What is it you want, Doctor?

I've just finished formulating
the injection.

Who wants to go first?

- Baby, that was so good.
- Thanks.

You're so talented,
it's not even fair.

- Well, you're biased.
- Look at this guy bringing it home.

Way to go, man.
That was... that was great.

Thanks. It helpswhen you
have the right partner.

You're a lucky guy.

Believe me, I know.

So, listen,
I just came to say good-bye.

What do you mean, good-bye?

Well, I got a job offer.

Super far away, across country,
and I decided to take it.

Well, wh-what will you be doing?

Um...

test pilot...
for a new aircraft design.

They say it might even be able
to make it to space.

- My God. That's amazing.
- Wow.

Congratulations, man.
That's really cool.

Yeah. I-I leave tomorrow.

Tomorrow? That's so soon.

Yeah, I know.

Wish we had more time.

Well... you're gonna
keep in touch, right?

I mean, don't forget about us

just because you're
a big-shot spaceman.

I promise you this

You will not be forgotten.

Good.

Hey, we have to take a picture

before my phone goes
in the capsule.

Capsule?

Yeah, they're burying
a time capsule next week,

and I decided
to put my phone in the mix.

Figure, I don't know,
maybe someone'll dig it up

in a thousand years,
learn who I was.

Hey, you never know.

Could even be sooner than that.

Will you take it, baby?

Of course.

All right, are you ready?
