Opens and close, please.

Your have damaged internal systems.

Maybe next time you can design me better.

- How are you?

- I am fine. I can't feel anything.

No you, in There.

I have been having glitches...

but it will pass.

- Have you been taking your medication?

- Yeah.

But these wounds are so cycling.

I had two this morning.

- Sound or image?

- Both.

I see it.

You made any unencrypted downloads?

- No. Just delete them from me.

- Consent?

My name is Major Mary Killian.

I give my consent to delete this data.

It's done.

- No big deal.

- What are they?

Sensory echoes from your mind, shadows.

I'm not sure.

How do you know it's a glitch of what's me?

The glitches have a different texture...

to the rest of your code.

I can see everything.

All of your thoughts, your... decisions.

I guess privacy is just for humans.

You are human.

People see you as human.

Everyone around me seems to fit.

They seem connected to something.

Something I...

am not..

- Like I have no past.

- Of course you have a past.

And at time you'll feel more more

connected to it and to them.

Opens and close, please.

We cling to memories

as if they define us, but...

They really don't.

What we do is what defines us.

You're entering a Hanka secure area.

Authorized personal only.

Please disable communication enhancement.

I'm busy.

Dr.. Dahlin! Are you finished yet?

If you hadn't rained all the Geisha

with the bullets,

This would be much easier.

- I didn't shoot him.

- I did.

This is gonna take days.

I need to run hundreds

of potential simulations.

We don't have the time.

She was a Hanka companion bot.

But she was reprogrammed

for cerebral hacking.

What was on her drives?

Nothing. The data was destroyed

as it was transmitted.

No sign of what she was up to.

The hardware was vandalized.

They ripped her up.

Then I have to do a deep dive.

You can't encrypt you in the deep dive

I know it.

They could left traps in her.

Mag pulses, viruses.

She is right.

You will be exposing your mind to

who ever hacked her. You'll be wide open.

I have to get inside her memory.

It's the fastest way to find Kuze.

It's too dangerous.

And highly irresponsible.

Are you sure?

You see any bad code headed my way,

pull me out.

How come you're the one sweating?

Run it.

Cyber mind connection to the Major,

now active...

and unencrypted

consent required for data download.

My name is Major Mira Killian

and I give my consent.

Disconnect. Get her out.

- Get her out!

- I'm trying, but she's being hacked.

Get her out now!

Now!

Are you okay?

I know where he is.

Two mercs at the door.

Armed and enhanced.

Copy that. We got it covered.

There's a lot of heat in here

for a nightclub.

It's a Yakuza club. What did you expect?

I quite like the place.

Why doesn't that surprise me?

I am gonna have to draw some attention.

See if I can access the basement that way.

You're not here

looking for any trouble, are you?

I am just here for the girls... and beer.

- Can I help you?

- I am looking for someone.

You've been here before?

My friend had some mech work done here.

We don't do mech work here.

My mistake.

Why don't you come have fun with us?

We will have some privacy.

I'm in.

I'll be here when you need me.

- You say your friend worked here?

- I said my friend had work done here.

She's human?

Your friend.

What's that supposed to mean?

Batou.

Can you hear me?

Who did this stunning work on you?

It is divine.

Ladriya... guns.

Here.

Batou, I'm losing signal.

Don't worry sweety.

We have privacy.

Listen.

You know the signal is green in or out.

Major, I'm in position. Do you copy?

Beer.

If you don't answer,

you're gonna hurt my feelings.

Ladriya, do you have major on Comms?

Got nothing. The signal is still blocked.

I am afraid I get bored

by that easily, so...

You don't wanna talk...

Maybe you wanna dance!

Major, come on. Answer me.

I thought you said no trouble.

Dance!

The truth is...

I wasn't built to dance.

Back on comms.

I am heading to the back room.

I missed you. I'll meet you there.

Collaborate with Hanka Robotics

should be destroyed.

Major?

Where is Batou?

In enhancement, next door.

He is doing well

you took most of the blast.

I saw him down there.

It was like...

He waited to see me.

We synaptic scanned you.

Everything you witnessed

went to Section 9 to evaluate.

You know, the scan...

Also turned up the number of glitches.

They've been getting worse.

Since when?

Since the deep dive.

Do any of the glitches

mean something to you?

No.

They don't.

You have been inside

the same shell as he has.

That could have very serious consequences.

You were not authorized

to deep dive the geisha.

You're disappointed.

No, I'm worried.

You're not invulnerable.

I can repair your body,

but I can't protect your mind.

Why not?

You can see all my thoughts so...

You should be able to secure them.

Try and understand your importance Major.

You're what everyone will become one day.

You don't know how alone

that makes me feel.

I can see you out there, you know.

How many fingers am I holding up?

Funny.

Say something nice.

You chose those?

They are tactical.

- Always for the job.

- What else I got?

- They suit you.

- Yeah?

I have night vision,...

and X-rays.

I guess I see like you now.

Don't worry, you'll get used to it.

Thanks for saving my ass.

Glad to see you're okay..

Major?

Could you feed the dogs for me?

I don't want to scare them.

Anytime.

Are you insufficiently funded, Mr. Aramaki?

Is section 9 missing some

critical operational resource?

We have everything that we require.

Major is our most sophisticated weapon

only if she is intact.

And Dr. Ouelet informed me...

That you let her dive a corrupted geisha.

You realize there is a premium importance

that Hanka represents to this government.

Major is the is the future of my company.

If you compromise your systems again...

I will burn this section.

Yes sir.

Mr. Cutter.

Be careful who is the threat.

I am accountable to the Prime Minister,

not to Hanka.

Create your own beauty.

Beauty enhanced.

Are you human?

Yeah.

Can you take that off?

So I can see your face?

What is that feeling?

It feels...

different.

What are you?

SECURE PROJECT 2571

HANKA PERSONNEL FILES

Look at me.

Tell me what they took from me.

I am sorry. They never told us.

It feels weird driving with these eyes.

Why do you take that?

It keeps my brain from reject this body.

Major, Batou, you need to get here.

What you got?

Another Hanka scientist

has been found dead.

It's Dahlin.

Got it.

Major this way.

SECURE - PROJECT 2571

What is that?

She found what Kuze stole from Osmond.

It's a list of everyone

who worked on a project called 2571.

That's who he's targeting.

Is there anyone else on that list?

Dr. OUELE Find Oulet. Now!

She is in transit. Her comms are down.
