Aeon Flux Page #2

Katherine.

It's you.

Katherine.

Wait outside.

Aeon.

You called me by another name earlier.

I did, and you let me live.

Give me my gun. We'll try it again.

Maybe later.

What was that name?

You know me, don't you?

No.

Do you know who you are?

- I know I came here to kill you.

- That's why you're in a cell.

But we're both still alive for a reason.

I don't know what this is...

but it's good to see you.

Amateurs.

Good boys.

- Aeon.

- Little busy, Sithandra.

Is it done?

I need more time.

Our information on him may be wrong.

I don't understand this.

We have to move. I hope you...

Don't question me, Sithandra.

I'll contact you soon.

Aeon, you know

there will be consequences to this.

I know what I'm doing.

This is outrageous.

One Monican

eluding all of our defenses?

The problem will be taken care of.

The problem is

Trevor's concept of security.

He needs to learn to accept

more traditional...

He needs to learn to accept our input.

Another example of him pursuing his

own agenda, no matter what we think.

- I'm beginning to question his agenda.

- Meaning?

The Monican tries to kill him

and he lets her live?

An unusual choice.

And now she's escaped.

Does anyone believe

this is a coincidence?

Do you really think

that I'm a sympathetic ear...

for your complaints about Trevor?

You don't have the right

to question what he does.

You must be concerned, Oren.

This is hardly routine.

I think I should talk with Trevor.

And I think

all of you should be more discreet.

Inari?

Lmage retrieval commencing.

What happened?

My sources were clear on this.

Aeon Flux

is the best the Monicans have.

- She failed.

- It's the first time she has.

I wanted this done cleanly.

- My brother...

- Will be vulnerable.

Preparing his speech...

Tomorrow, 1300...

It can't be traced to you, in any case.

That's comforting.

We did everything correctly.

- She had her opportunity.

- And she stopped.

Why?

- I don't know.

- Image retrieval underway.

It'll be too risky to call another hit.

The Monicans may suspect

they are being used.

Stop.

Oren?

No.

That's impossible.

Claudius.

- Why are you still here?

- It's not as simple as you think.

Una is murdered and you keep working

for the people who did it?

- What should I be thinking?

- You don't know.

What don't I know?

They killed her.

- And you're still alive.

- You killed her, Aeon.

They thought she was a Monican,

that's why she died.

- Una's life was worth more than that.

- She was all I had.

You're not the only one.

What are you

really doing here, Claudius?

Working.

It's all that's left.

Working. For Trevor Goodchild.

I blamed him, too.

But now

I don't think it was Trevor's fault.

Trevor's trying to help.

Something is wrong with us, Aeon.

With everybody.

You have the dreams, don't you?

Memories of things

that never happened to you?

Una had them. I have them.

It's happening all across Bregna.

- What is it?

- I don't know.

They only tell us what we need to know.

My work is a small part

of a larger experiment.

- Whose experiment?

- Trevor's.

We're studying

what's growing outside the wall.

Something happened

when they cured the industrial disease.

Something else sprung up in its place.

We're sick.

And Trevor's trying to cure us.

That's all I know.

Trevor tried to dope me.

Tell me what's in this.

It's a message.

Well, what does it say?

You have to drink it.

That's how it works.

I loved her.

You know that.

Aeon.

I'm sorry for the pain,

but it's not safe to talk in the open.

Nothing is as it seems.

You had your chance.

Why did you hesitate?

You know where to find me.

- Why am I here?

- I needed to see you again.

You killed my sister.

I didn't know anything about it.

I'm sorry.

- And that excuses you?

- No.

But this is a war.

People on all sides die.

She shouldn't have.

She had nothing to do with this.

- Everyone is involved in this.

- She wasn't.

I don't need that to kill you.

But it would be easier, wouldn't it?

Everything changed when I saw you.

I know you. And you know me.

Why do I know you? Why?

Why did you come back?

- What do you want from me?

- What do I want?

I want my sister back.

I want to remember

what it feels like to be a person.

Aeon.

Why do I feel this way around you?

Katherine...

You know me.

I want you to eliminate him.

Come back.

I'm not who you think I am, Aeon.

Something is missing here.

We identified the variables

that compromised test group 7 A.

Schedule a Relical visit regarding 7B

and make sure we isolate them.

It's just a matter of time...

before people look up

and question what's happening here.

Found you.

No permanent damage here, Chairman.

You may leave.

She's escaped.

Why am I not surprised?

I found her in the library.

- I think I wounded her, but...

- You attacked her?

She's a Monican agent

who tried to kill you.

I assumed it was obvious

what I should do.

Freya, I want her alive.

Do you understand?

Is Oren aware of this?

I can't find him.

Stay close.

No matter what Trevor's done for us

in the past, he's not above reproach.

This is treason.

Oren?

Trevor has been moving away from us

for a long time.

What we've built here

is larger than him.

I never thought it would come to this,

but we have to face the truth.

He chose that Monican

and he knew what that would mean.

He must be removed.

And Oren is next in line.

Isn't that right?

Yes.

It's done, then.

Mr. Chairman.

Trevor has betrayed all of us.

He's a criminal.

We'll treat him as one.

... test group 7 A.

Schedule a Relical visit regarding 7B

and make sure we isolate them.

It's just a matter of time...

before people look up

and question what's happening here.

Review progress of subjects

from test group 7B...

Sandrin Veems, Greta Salk, Una Flux.

Schedule a Relical visit

to retrieve new data.

8.26, 7. 19.

Greta Salk, Una Flux.

Schedule a Relical visit

to retrieve new data.

8.26, 7. 19.

Collect additional samples

from Relical strands 5.88.

You're certainly killing him kindly.

The situation has changed.

Our orders haven't.

I'm not following orders anymore.

Why are you doing this, Aeon?

Everything has become

more complicated.

No, it's simple.

Trevor may not be responsible

for Una's death.

- Trevor?

- I'm trying to find out who is.

Your mission was to kill Goodchild

and you can't or won't do that. So...

Give me your weapon

and return across the frontier.

- Didn't I teach you to think for yourself?

- You taught me a lot more than that.

Please!

I can hurt you if I have to.

Don't you feel something wrong

inside you?

Sithandra, I'm...

I don't know who I am.

You feel it, too, don't you?

Come with me.

We'll finish the mission together.

I can't.

This sort of thing used to be fun.

Now what do I do with you?

Katherine.

Come back.
