Since you know so much,

maybe you can tell me

how to find Jared?

Hey bro', why?

Look like missing

persons to you?

Hey, The Hammerheads,

what you think of them, man?

- I don't.

- Hammerheads are rebels, yeah?

They freedom fighters

trying to stop

the spread of information systems.

The cyborg computers who will try

to enslave civilization.

Think of themselves as

protectors of humankind.

You know, maybe you're

one smart cop.

Maybe too smart for cop, brother.

Maybe, just maybe,

you're one sharp motherf***er.

That's a lot of maybes.

Look stop it now, I'm

telling you the truth.

Why, gaijin?

Because i'm going to

be dead in two days.

I've got something inside me.

- Oh, sh*t!

- Inside you? Bomb, yeah?

Yeah, that's right.

When I get close to Jared.

I got a feeling I'm going

to become colorfull.

So stop f***ing with me!

Surgery by surgery, brother.

Getting more machine than human.

How you feel about that?

I didn't have any choice.

Sad, yeah?

At least I'm still alive.

Won't make any difference

you no care, brother.

Just make sure you

stay away from me,

in case your bomb get accident.

Next time...

...I kill all of you motherfuckers.

Ling-kun,

Let's go get plate lunch.

Hey Julian, who the f***

are these guys?

Who cares?

Oooh!

You're not the maid, are you?

Bring him in here, Michelle!

Did you hear what I said?

He's checked out.

It only works if you

load it, stupid.

Thanks for the tip.

Michelle...

Jared said you were

someone I could trust.

She said you were...

Different.

Who the hell are you?

Someone that can help

you find Jared.

I apologize for Michelle's

unorthodox methods,

but I needed to run

a scan on you,

with a respirator sensor,

just to make sure Jared

wasn't overly optimistic

about your allegiance.

I don't really care

what your scan says...

We can't really talk.

Farnsworth's got a

surveillance unit

implanted in your right eye.

He can hear and see

everything you do.

So you want me to

tear out my eyeball?

Jared came up with

a slightly less drastic measure.

- I trusted Jared once...

- Yeah, and she betrayed you.

- Yeah, she betrayed me...

- She did it for a good reason!

It wasn't her reason.

There is more at stake

than your feelings.

There always was.

Are you gonna help us?

You're a goddamned cyborg.

Why should I help you?

And you're a pathetic,

f***ing speed-loader!

I don't want to depend on you!

I don't want to have

to rely on you!

Jared gave up her life

believing we needed you.

So she's dead?

Look, are you going

to trust me, Alex?

There's no more f***ing time!

Okay, do it.

All right, Alex.

- Now this is gonna...

- Sting a little? I know.

No, actually,

it's gonna hurt like a motherf***er.

Just do it.

Hold still!

We're busted.

Let's go pick them up.

You know, she's not really dead.

- What do you mean?

- Jared was caught leaving L.A.

She suffered major wounds

to her housing.

Her body died a few hours

after she got here.

So she's gone?

Her body is, but not her data.

Jared's mind and soul, Alex.

The database was transferred

to her memory banks.

Take Jared

to The Red Army Hammerheads.

A meeting's been set for

today at sundown,

on top of the volcano.

They'll wait there

until the sun vanishes,

then they're gone.

And with them,

our best chance to stop Farnsworth.

All units, move to preset positions.

Scan coordinates

for any terrorist support activity.

Welcome to Shang-Loo, gentlemen.

Why did Jared do this?

Ask her yourself.

Plug her into this computer.

You'll be able to talk to her.

Team two, report.

Team two in position.

You know I've got

an encoded explosive in my heart?

That will scramble the signals

they try to send the bomb.

You're safe for now.

As they decode the jammer,

the lights go out.

When all five are gone...

Boom.

Why did you need me?

Jared said you were the best.

That you'd have a better chance

of making it.

Why are you helping Jared?

I want to matter.

I want it to mean something

that I lived.

Isn't that what life's all about?

They are trapped...

Sitting ducks.

Ah.

Team three, report.

Team three set.

On your command, lockup will

commence in 15 seconds.

We can get out the back way,

through the bathroom window.

Go on! Get out!

I'll cover you.

Argh!

Well, it's an exciting resort.

A deep layer scan

confirms that Jared was

in the room with Alex,

commissioner.

Julian must have Jared on disk.

Sh*t!

The jam on Alex's charge

is holding.

The techs here say it will

take six to 12 hours

to decode the scrambler

Julian put in him.

We haven't got six hours.

The Hammerheads, they could have

the data by then.

Ja.

Sam, look at this.

Julian, wait.

I believe you've left

something behind.

Wait, Julian, here.

Let me help.

You've already erased your

memory banks.

Disciplined to the last.

But there's nothing I want

in your auxiliary program.

You'll be found out soon.

Not if we kill everyone that knows.

You always were

an extremist, Sam.

You were a shitty cyborg.

You were never one of us.

Killing all the humans...

Isn't going to make you

any more real.

I am real.

Commissioner,

we got a little trace image

from the hotel's recorder.

Not much, but have a look.

Take Jared to The Red Army

Hammerheads.

A meeting's been set...

Hey, Sam...

I'll be back.

I don't think so.

That's it.

The sound is ionized.

Alex has Jared with him.

We've got him now.

If the techs can decode the jammer.

This agent has a knack

for survival, hasn't he?

Developed quite a reputation

while he was online, eh?

Alex Rain will be destroyed,

somehow, some way.

He's human, after all.

We'll track him on foot.

He'll try to meet with

the hammerheads.

Billy said it was going

to happen that way.

We'll find the rest.

Well, I hope so.

Jared, can you hear me?

Welcome to Shang-Loo.

Is julian with you?

No. Why did you turn

against L.A.P.D.?

You believed in them.

Not against L.A.P. D...

Against...

Commissioner Farnsworth.

So he's not the nicest guy

in the whole world...

No. Commissioner Farnsworth

has been replaced.

What do you mean, "replaced"?

I just saw him down in Baja.

You saw a cyborg duplicate.

He's dead.

Killed a month ago.

The cyborg was retro-cloned

into a perfect,

cell-for-cell duplicate

of Farnsworth.

Impossible to detect

with existing scans.

State of the art.

They intend to replace

humans with cyborgs.

Which humans?

All humans, Alex.

They have to be stopped,

before they start a war

between cyborgs and humankind.

You're a cyborg.

Why don't you side with them?

- They are wrong.

- And that's it?

Isn't that enough?

We've got him in sector six.

- There he is!

- Get him!

Give it up!

Alex!

F*** you!

- What?

- Not you, Jared.

Come on, I want an

answer out of you!

Where is he?

No, no, no.

Have you seen him?!

Please, don't shoot!

No more, please!

Teach you to f*** with me,

you f***ing cyborgs!

Streets aren't safe anymore.

Can't even go to the market
