Cube 2: Hypercube Page #6

---

He's a hi-tech genius

whose morals make Muammar Qaddafi

Iook like Mother Teresa.

Why are you panicking?

Because he's throwing anybody

connected to this thing in here

to f***ing die!

Max,

you're not connected.

Can you keep a secret?

Sure.

I love secrets.

I designed a computer game called 'Relativity,'

where contestants linked

to each over the Internet

do battle in a 3-D environment,

using different time signatures.

What are you saying?

Are you saying that you designed all this?

No. Just these variable time speeds rooms.

Just the concept.

It was for a game.

Now here we are.

Wow.

This is really some game, Max.

Do you have other little secrets

you want to tell me?

People are dead,

okay?

I'm not responsible for this.

It was just a game.

I can't even sell the stupid thing.

It's all involved in a lawsuit.

What kind of lawsuit?

I don't know,

some--

Right, you're a lawyer.

A company called Cyber Thrill stole it from me.

Cyber Thrill?

You've heard of them?

Yeah.

Are you into computer games?

Settle.

Excuse me?

I strongly recommend that

you settle. You'll never win.

- How do you know that?

- Because...

you're not up against Cyber Thrill.

They're just a subsidiary.

Who owns them?

Izon.

How do you know that?

Because I...

represent them.

I must be hearing things.

Finally.

I was wondering if I was the only one in here.

Do you need a hand there?

You are upside-down.

Do you have any idea what's going on here?

Be careful.

Watch your step.

Crazy.

You are not the only person here, Jerry.

There's lots of people just like you.

How do you know my name?

We've met before,

Jerry.

I get this mouth-watering feeling

when I talk to you.

- What do you mean?

- Come here, look at this.

Hey, hey. Agh!

- Agh, no!

- Take this! And this!

Why don't you just go?

I'm blind, Kate.

I'm a burden.

You can move faster without me.

Sasha, please,

I know how you're feeling.

No you don't.

You have no idea how I'm feeling.

- I know this seems hopeless

- It is hopeless.

No, it's not.

I'm gonna figure this out.

'Figure it out.'

Trust me, precious.

If I haven't figured it out,

you sure as sh*t aren't going to.

What did you just say?

I'm sorry, Kate.

I didn't mean to--

No, no.

Wait a second.

Back that up.

Why do you think that you should be able

to figure this out?

I wasn't kidnapped.

When I found out they were

putting people in here,

I tried to blow the whistle on them.

So they came after me.

I escaped into the one place

they wouldn't dare follow me--

in here.

Poetic justice,

don't you think?

Who are you?

Max was right.

Jerry was wrong.

I exist.

Oh my God.

Sasha. Of course.

Sasha is the nickname for Alexandra.

Alex Trusk.

Pleased to make your acquaintance.

Damn it.

This is the worst nightmare I've ever had.

I just I wish I'd wake up.

You really think this is all a dream?

Definitely.

In the real world I'd never kiss you.

Oh, really?

Yeah,

you're not my type.

You're not my type,

either.

Aa-ah!

Ya-aa!

Becky Young.

Yeah.

Rebecca Young.

Yeah.

Who... are you?

Who am I?

I'm Simon Grady.

Your parents hired me to find you.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Thank God.

Yeah.

I'm happy to see you too, Becky.

I really am.

I've been wandering these rooms for hours.

Ahhgh!

You gotta love these parallel universes.

You built this thing?

I gave them the key to build it--

better than they wanted.

I gave them a real hypercube.

How do we get out?

Kate, this isn't a game.

There's no happy ending.

This place is out of control.

It's not stable.

Does this number mean nothing?

It's got to mean something.

It's everywhere.

I'm sorry, Kate.

It's over.

No, it is not over.

Not yet.

I refuse to die here.

What the hell?

Oh my God.

We've got to move.

Come on. We've got to get out of here.

- Leave me.

- No, you're coming with me.

Oh my God.

We got to get out of here.

Just go up as fast as you can.

Faster, faster.

Keep going.

Okay. Good girl.

What the hell?

Oh my God.

Okay, we've got to get out of here.

This is insane.

It's Jerry's diagram.

It's all the numbers.

They're all just suddenly in here.

It's Jerry's markings--

that dead physicist's equations--

and that damn colonel's corpse,

just hanging there as if

we never even rescued him?

Everything keeps appearing over and over again.

Sasha--

please, you have to have

some idea what this means.

All the realities are starting to collapse

into one space.

And what happens to us

when they-- 'it' collapses?

The whole thing implodes.

It's only a matter of time.

I'm not gonna just stand here while it happens.

I'm not leaving him behind.

- Oh my God.

- Kate!

- Let me go.

- Get the hell up here!

Oh my God.

Kate.

We don't have much time.

No.

I refuse to die here.

I wish I had your spirit.

Hello, gorgeous.

Miss me?

Huh?

Come on in.

The water's fine.

Agh!

Hello, Kate.

Let her go.

Who are you?

Yeah, it's me--

good old Simon.

Do you remember this?

Do you?

I've waited a long time for pay back.

That was just...

seconds ago.

Don't be so stupid, Kate.

Time works differently in this place.

Hey, just-- okay.

Just let her go.

She's just a kid.

She'll be a dead little kid,

unless you come here to papa.

Okay.

Just let her go--

we can figure something out, okay?

You take her place.

What do you want?

I'm hungry.

- Simon?

- Huh?

There's no point.

We're all dead anyway.

Oh, oh.

Okay.

No!

Oh, come on Kate.

The fun's just beginning.

Oh my God.

What the hell?

- Yah!

- Agh!

I'm really gonna miss you.

Jesus--

Of course,

It's an expiration date.

He figured out when it's gonna implode.

Leave me.

Hello, Kate.

Welcome back.

So, you figured it out.

Yes, sir.

No time to spare.

The device-- any luck?

We'll take that to Darcy and see

if anything recorded on it.

Sir?

Yes, sir.

Phase two is terminated.

I see.

Yes, sir.

Right away, sir.
