in order to sell the vaccine

to the highest bidder.

WES:
Do you realize

how ridiculous that sounds?

Wait, wait, slow down.

Slow down.

I really wanna believe you.

And I can't give you

a reason to, can I?

Just go, Nolan.

Go by yourself.

You don't even need to show me

where it is.

Just...

Just put a few CCs in this

at the bottom of the stairs,

so I can live.

It's not his fault, Kalie.

That part of him is dead.

Just fast-forward.

[audio fast-forwarding]

SINCLAIR:
What the hell?

My... We found it!

Where is it?

In the car!

We already searched the car.

Extensively.

It's in the driver's seat.

SINCLAIR:

Should I disconnect Lazarus?

Not yet.

Not until Milton

finds the vaccine.

Will you give me a moment?

Sure.

[oxygen pumping continues]

KALIE:
I know you can hear me.

And you probably

want answers by now.

We stole the vaccine

when we found out what

GenoCal was gonna do with it.

I don't know if the world

even knows what GenoCal is,

but I do.

After the accident...

you never recovered.

You weren't dead,

but you weren't alive,

and the vaccine

was gone forever.

That was until

GenoCal contacted me

and asked me

to create Lazarus,

a program that would jolt

your memory and record it.

They figured only someone

who knew you as well I did

could complete this task.

Since then, you'd been

wandering through a world

that I've created for you.

Every time you hit a dead end,

it would reboot itself...

until...

until this moment.

[distant shouting]

KALIE:
Twelve days after GenoCal

moved you to a secret location,

the big meltdown happened.

The virus was set free,

and the epidemic spread like

a tsunami all over the world.

We needed the vaccine

more than ever.

But the GenoCal facility

was destroyed,

and you and Lazarus were lost

until this morning.

SINCLAIR:
We gotta go now.

No! He's here!

KALIE:
I found out two days

before the crash.

You named her Loni.

It was the only time

you've ever seen me cry.

I want her to be

everything like you.

[shouting]

[shouting continues]

- He's alive.

- He won't make it long, though.

We can't leave him here.

- What?

- We have to take him with us.

We have to!

[beeping]

[beeping]

[oxygen pumping]

LAZARUS:
Oh, Wes.

How romantic.

A daughter?

A wife who saves you?

What else?

I've been programmed to know

you like happy endings.

But that was a bit

over the top.

Don't you think?

It's only you and I.

You won't get out of here

until I get the vaccine.

Therefore, I suggest...

we start all over again.
