[Frost] Alexa can you hear me?

(speaking in foreign language)

I'll take care of her.

You alright Alexa?

What were you thinking?

[Alexa] I was

trying to help Dad.

What the hell

is going on here?

Jesus.

Caine downstairs and

get Civie in order.

Everybody else out now.

No no.

I need to speak with you.

Do you now Mr. Brooks?

We've seen what your

machine did to Cooper.

This is just the beginning.

Very well.

Officer Walsh will

escort you to Civie

whilst everyone else

gets back to work.

I'll join you presently.

Nobody is doing anything until

you and I have

reached an agreement.

Fine.

Mr. Walsh please take Mr.

Brooks to the war room.

[Walsh] This way Paul.

Eve.

Eve you need to listen to me.

Where's my arm?

Did I have an accident?

Albert what is this?

[President] The truth

about who you really are.

I don't understand.

What's wrong with me Albert?

Eve.

Do you remember what it was

that Robert felt set

his AI creations apart?

Identity.

That's right identity.

And how do you create something

as complex as identity

from the simple materials

used in cybertronics?

You simulate human experience.

You are not Eve Gabriel.

You never were.

Shut up.

You've been programmed

to think you're Eve.

Shut up I know who I am.

You can see for yourself.

Albert say something.

You designed this system

with your own hands Eve.

[Computer] System

I know you trust it

more than anything.

[Cain] Understood

consider it done.

Thank you Cain.

Mr. Brooks.

The President would like Mr.

Brooks to wait for him here.

That's nice of him.

Anyone want to tell me why?

There was an

incident in the lab.

Yes, yes I heard.

Well Mr. Brooks is

welcome to stand or sit.

You can go officer.

Shame about Cooper.

Don't pretend like you care.

I do care.

I'm really gonna miss his rice.

Perhaps I should warn

you Secretary Ainsley.

One more drop into

this pool of resentment

and the whole damn could bust.

(laughing)

I don't think

now is the time for

pithy comments and

quant metaphors do you?

We're aware of the dangers

you civilians pose.

But are you aware just

how similar you and I are?

I don't know.

You're a man who

likes order, as am I.

You also like discipline,

a virtue I hold as

highly as courage.

What are you

trying to tell me?

What would you

say if I offered

to bring order to Eden through

a change of leadership?

Change of leadership?

You're fantasizing.

You see I believe

I can make this

a more comfortable

place for everybody.

A place less obsessed

with science experiments

and wishful thinking and more

concerned about it's people.

Now if I had your backing

I believe I can make

that transition seamless.

You must joking.

Far from it Mr.

Brooks, far from it.

I see the President wants

to address Civie personally.

He asked me to

accompany you back down.

Shall we?

Get a grip of yourself Smith.

We knew this day would come.

No human could have built

Abel in the time you did,

not even Robert Gabriel.

Well actually he almost did.

Override Pope, James T.

[Smith] Robert what

are you doing here?

I thought you were in bay dock.

I thought you were dead.

[Robert] Everything's over.

Eden have launched

their chemical weapons.

What is it?

[Smith] Do you need help do

you need medical attention?

[Robert] Oh much better yes.

[President] Is

this facility secure?

[Smith] What the

hell is he doing here?

[Robert] I fixed Albert.

She's ready.

(alarm blaring)

It's a lie.

It's just you

manipulating things again.

To what possible end?

You're sick.

I have memories, feelings.

I eat, I bleed.

[President] Do you?

I can do what I want.

I control my own mind.

How do you even

know the difference?

What you think you

know are all memories

Robert transcoded from

the real Eve to you.

What do you mean?

Eve was Roberts

willing human subject

and he was able to make a map of

her neurological

response patterns

providing stimuli to anything

connected to her past.

I know how it's done.

In which case you'll

know that it takes

a lot of pictures, videos,

and old news footage

to build a carbon copy

of someone's neurology.

Robert did it and more

importantly he discovered how to

predict Eve's reactions

to certain situations.

All of this he built into

your model, into Mark II.

The East new about

Robert and Eve's abilities.

A sleeper agent murdered her

and fatally injured Robert.

No, I feel human.

So what just

because you feel human

you think that makes you human?

(contemplative music)

Did anyone see the arm?

I don't think so.

Good.

Have you ever wondered Smith

that if Eden is still intact

then Jericho might be as well?

It's a thought that

eats away at my nerves,

like a finger nail

on a chalkboard.

Well the East didn't have

the coordinates to

the research facility.

Well we know they

had knowledge of

Roberts work but maybe they...

Maybe that's all they had.

The reality is that

Robert was the kind of man

who operated behind

a veil of mystery.

Which means we actually have

no idea what was really there.

(contemplative music)

(grunting)

(equipment clattering)

Hey listen up.

There's been some developments.

I've seen Pope.

You're a long way

from home Secretary.

Just here to let you know

thanks to Mr. Brooks

persuasive arguments

the President will be

down to Civie shortly.

Oh you aren't staying?

You know Paul work work work.
