Code 46 Page #4

it's the same Maria Gonzalez.

The finger is a placebo memory.

I moved it from her childhood.

I think it's very effective.

When will she be able to leave?

She's due to leave tomorrow.

I'm afraid I'm gonna have to ask you

to release her to me now.

Can you miss someone you don't remember?

Can one moment or experience

ever disappear completely?

Or does it always exist somewhere,

waiting to be discovered?

- Wait, I've forgotten something.

- What?

- A valise. It's very important to me.

- It's in the back. Voila.

Is that what you're going to do?

Put me al fuera with them?

You've been outside before.

Spent 10 years al fuera.

Didn't come back inside till you were 14.

You really did your homework.

You can't sing, you like sherbet fountains,

you like to grow real plants from seed.

God, I must have been

your favorite subject at school.

You hate the desert.

I always hated the desert.

Even at college,

studying the Roadrunner cartoons...

I had to look away.

I've always wondered why the coyote

didn't just go out and buy a roadrunner.

If he had enough money

for rocket-powered roller skates...

he had enough money to buy a roadrunner.

How did you do that?

What?

I was thinking something and you heard me.

That is weird.

Intuition.

I can feel what you're thinking.

I don't believe in mind-reading.

I think it is all a trick.

It's not a trick. It is a gift.

What am I thinking now?

You're thinking of Damian Alekan.

- Have you been here before?

- Once.

You like it?

I was only here a day.

But, yes, I liked it very much.

Excuse the mess.

Come here.

Sit down.

That's Damian.

Recognize him now?

I remember he wanted to go to Delhi.

And I remember the look on his face

when I gave him the papel.

He tried for years to get one officially

and he couldn't get one.

I was there when you met Damian.

I was with you in the bar.

I don't understand.

You don't remember

because they erased your memory.

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

I came to Shanghai to investigate a fraud.

I knew you were guilty.

But then I fell in love with you.

Why would they erase my memory of you?

I don't know.

My cosa. Where's my cosa?

- I can't find my cosa.

- Come here. You haven't lost anything.

Calm down.

- I can't find my cosa.

- It's okay.

I don't know where my cosa is.

Will you stay with me?

- I'm so tired.

- I'll stay with you until you wake up.

- What is it?

- It'll help you sleep.

- I don't understand anything.

- I don't understand anything either.

My father used to tell me stories

as I fell asleep.

Stories about Jebel Ali

and the Arabian Sea.

Stories of magic and adventure.

He used to live there...

and believed that if we could return,

everything would be all right.

Everything would be like it used to be

before we were exiled.

And in my dreams I was there.

Sample, please.

Thank you.

I'm pleased to tell you that

I've screened both your sets of genes...

and there are no Code 46 issues.

It is perfectly safe for you to marry.

In fact, I'd recommend it.

You both have the code

for high intelligence.

- Thank you.

- Thank you very much.

Do you know this woman?

I'm looking for her.

You must have found her, hombre,

if you have her hair.

It was given to me by relatives.

- What's your relationship to this woman?

- I just want to know about her.

You can't liaise with her.

See this? This is your DNA.

A 50% match with the hair samples.

And here...

is the DNA of your mother.

A 100% match. Genetically identical.

Any liaison with this woman

would be a Code 46 violation.

- How can that be?

- Anything's possible in vitro.

Your mother was one of a batch

of 24 cloned fetuses.

This hair is from your mother

or one of her genetic twins.

- This woman is identical to my mother?

- No.

Diet...

climate, environment, accident...

surgery, the stars, God.

We aren't prisoners of our genes.

Is this hair from your mother?

No.

- Are you in love with this woman?

- Why?

- Is she pregnant?

- No.

- Were you naturally conceived?

- In vitro.

Your nurture parents will have

your records, if that's any help.

They're dead.

I'm sorry.

If we're frightened, we run.

It's our instinct.

Adrenalin pumps round the body,

the muscles contract...

our heart beats faster, and we run.

We run for our lives.

We run for safety...

for our home, our families,

our loved ones.

Sylvie.

You're driving.

I don't want you to drive and call.

I'm on my way to the airport.

I'll be home tomorrow.

- Catch the bad guy?

- Every time.

William, I love you.

I love you, too.

Daddy? Hello. How are you?

- Love you.

- Me you.

See you later.

Hi. I need a ticket to Seattle.

It's completely red, sir.

It's out of date.

See? You're not covered for the Asea area.

But I don't wanna be here.

I wanna leave, I wanna go home.

- I'm covered for home, right?

- I really don't know, sir.

I am covered for home.

But you're not at home, sir.

You're aqui in Shanghai without cover.

I got an idea. Why don't we just kick me out

in the general direction of home?

You can't fly uncovered, sir.

You can't be in the Asea area without cover.

What am I gonna do,

piss out the window at 60,000 feet?

I really wouldn't know enough

about your character to say, sir.

Maybe I can guess something

about your character.

These are particularly fun.

I'm afraid you guessed wrong, sir.

I'm a Christian scientist.

I don't believe in drugs or coffee.

Damn.

I'm all out of Bibles.

Can I come in?

Can I stop you?

I need your help.

Where have you been?

Lo siento. I had something to do.

I shouldn't be in Shanghai.

I should be in Seattle.

You knew that last night.

- I have to go.

- So go.

I can't.

My papel was red. I can't get out.

You tried already?

You were just going to disappear.

You say that too much.

I need to go home.

- You've got a family.

- Si.

- Chico or chica?

- Chico.

He must think you're a real hero

for catching bad guys like me.

Something like that.

Well, you know what they say:

"The Sphinx knows best."

Maybe there's a reason you can't go home.

It's a fake, okay?

I have to swap it for a genuine papel.

I'll meet you at the airport

at 7:
00, okay?

Come on.

My name is Maria Gonzalez

and I have an access problem.

I have a new finger

and it needs to be recoded.

- Just hold on a moment, please?

- Gracias.

- Buenos dias.

- Bueno. So good to see you.

I have an access problem.

I have a new finger

and I need it to be recoded.

I know. You've been relocated.

- Sorry?

- You have been relocated.

You will work here now.

Why don't you come inside?

- William, where are you?

- Still in Shanghai.

Isn't your cover out?

- I've extended it.

- No, you haven't.

- Where is Maria Gonzalez?

- No lo se.

Why did you remove her from Mai Lin Clinic

without authorization?

- She was a suspect.

- Was?

Is.

You seem upset, William.

Report to the Shanghai office, today.

They will take over the case.

Get me whatever you can,
