...we're gonna regret it.

Well, at the end of the day,

Replicant is disposable.

Take it easy.

Food.

Eat.

I'm Jake.

It's okay.

There you go.

You like that?

How about this?

How's that?

Hey, here. Here, here.

Yeah.

Okay.

Here, here. Look at that.

You like that?

Strong, huh?

Easy, easy.

Take it easy.

No.

Hey, hey, hey! Take it easy!

Easy! Hey!

Back up! Back off!

Easy! Back!

Back!

Now, sit!

Sit!

I'm standing.

I'm walking.

I'm sitting.

Standing.

I'm walking.

I'm sitting.

- I'm stand...

- Stay.

No.

Walk.

Move. Let's go.

Give me your glasses.

Those are $500 sunglasses,

detective.

Yeah?

Hey, look.

Good.

Thank you.

Do I get an owner's manual

on this guy or what?

You do whatever it takes

to awaken the killer inside.

Here are your temporary NSF papers,

and your gun.

- Got it.

- I want a report every 12 hours.

Okay. Let's go.

Walk. Walk.

Come on.

Sit.

Sleeping killer. How sweet.

We got company.

Okay, freak of science,

let's talk a little shop here, shall we?

What do you remember, huh?

Hey.

What do you remember?

Come on. You a killer?

Feel like killing?

Killing somebody

other than a woman?

Show me how you did it.

Show me how you did it.

Come on.

Show me.

Show me how you f***ing did it.

Remember that?

Take it.

Here.

Wanna kill me?

Here's your chance.

Do it.

Drop the gun!

Oh, Three Stooges to the rescue.

Stay calm. Do not shoot the subject.

Jake, tell him to back off.

No, just shoot him. Kill him.

Goddamn it, Jake.

Okay, okay, boys. Take it easy.

Maybe if you put your guns down,

he'll do the same.

That's good.

You deliberately jeopardized

a classified project.

We're taking him back.

Good riddance.

He's useless.

Get out of there. Come on.

I got him.

Jake. Jake. Jake.

- Yeah, very nice.

- You broke my arm!

Shouldrt have

showed him the move.

No. No.

Hurts, don't it?

Freeze. Freeze!

Hey! No, no. Billion-dollar project.

No shooting, remember?

Put it away.

That's it. Put it away.

Stay. No. No.

Stay.

Here.

Sit.

Stay.

Good.

I'll call you a cab. Walk.

Walk.

Yeah, hi.

I'd like to make an appointment...

...to see the house on Berkeley.

My name is Jake Riley.

- Drop the gun.

- Oh, no problem.

- Shut up.

- Excuse me?

No. Sorry.

- No, it's the radio.

- Oh, I see.

- Half-hour.

- Yeah.

Great. Thank you.

You know this place?

A year ago, you made it the most

famous house in the country.

Real messy.

Come on, get back.

Calm the f*** down, you hear me?

Calm the f*** down.

Okay, let's go.

It's just rain. Come on.

How about this weather?

- Jake Riley? Wendy Wyckham.

- Wendy.

Wendy Wyckham.

Calm the f*** down.

No.

Sorry.

My cousin Ronny, he's a little special.

Let me show you in.

Be good. Come on.

This house was built in 1926.

All the woodwork is original.

Nice cozy fireplace here makes

the entrance that much more special.

Over here we have

a spacious living room.

This... This way.

And we go into the kitchen

which has recently been remodeled.

All the marble, of course,

imported from Florence.

And over here we have

the dining room.

- It's perfect for entertaining.

- Stay.

What line of work

did you say you're in?

I was in law enforcement.

That's right. You...

You're that TV cop, the Torch case.

I feel so much better. You know

the history of the house then.

Yes, I do.

You know, it's such a shame, because

most people can never get past it.

But it is a steal.

Way below market value.

Is he okay?

Could you give us a minute, please?

Absolutely.

Let's go.

Walk.

Let's go. This way.

Come on.

What do you remember?

What?

What is it? What do you see?

Has he been here before?

In another life.

Let's go.

No, Mommy, I don't wanna go home.

I want to go to the park. No.

Johnny, stop it.

You're a bad boy.

- Jake.

- How you doing, kiddo?

- Good.

- Come on.

Come on. Here, jump up.

Up you go.

- How you been, huh?

- Good.

- You been a good boy?

- Yeah.

Up you go.

- How's things going?

- Good.

- Mommy's making your favorite.

- Oh, I like that.

- Go give Mommy a hug for me. Go.

- Okay.

Be good.

Danny, go on upstairs,

and take Scout with you.

- Okay.

- Okay?

Scout, come.

Come on.

Sit. Down.

You wanna tell me

what the hell's going on?

It's classified.

If I told you, I'd have to kill you.

That's not funny.

Sorry, I know.

Listen, I need your help.

I gotta get a rendering of this guy

as soon as possible.

I'm not gonna do that for you.

That's against department policy,

remember?

That's why it's considered a favor.

That's gross.

Don't eat that. That's for doggies.

Here, try this.

Want some more?

You're supposed to say "thank you."

What?

Oh, my God, Danny,

what happened?

- Oh, God!

- Baby, what happened?

Come here! Get up!

Look at me, you psycho freak!

What did you do to him?

Scout hit me in the tooth.

- It was Scout?

- What did you f***ing do to him?

Wait a second. Jake!

Jake, stop! It wasnt him.

Scout knocked his tooth out.

It was the dog. It wasnt him.

What happened?

I kicked the sh*t out of him.

Honest mistake.

It's been 18 hours, Jake.

You've gone AWOL,

let him attack my men...

...and now you're telling me

you've mistreated my replicant?

Perhaps I made

an error in judgment.

Perhaps you did. Perhaps you should

take your experiment and go.

I don't need your sh*t.

After what the Torch said to you,

I thought you'd really want to nail him.

How the hell do you know

what he said to me, huh?

You got my place wired, is that it?

How the hell did you know

where we were today?

- You tracking us too?

- You think we'd let you walk out with...

...the future of our national security

without knowing everything about you?

I expect a report every 12 hours,

Jake.

No exceptions.

Jacob, is that you?

Yeah, it's me, Mom. It's me.

Here you go. Get your clothes off.

Yes. That's it. Good.

Stay. Stay.

Come here. Come here.

Okay, where is it, huh?

It's not in the car.

Too obvious, isn't it?

Let's see.

Internal? Is that it? Open.

Internal tracking device.

Oh, they think they're smart.

They think they're real smart,

don't they? Internal.

Smart, isn't it?

It's okay.

It's okay. It's okay. Calm down.

What...? What are you doing?

I'm working, Mom.

It's okay, it's okay.

It's not what you think.

Here. Okay.

Let's go, Mom.

Jacob.

- What?

- Jacob, that man was beaten up.

Mom,

you don't even know the guy, okay?

Relax.

Wait a minute, Jacob,

I'm talking about you.

- Jesus.

- What is the matter with you?

- What has happened?

- What's wrong with you?

Why are you

treating people like that?

Mom, just stop, please.

Okay. But you remember one thing:

If you treat people like criminals,

that is exactly what they will become.

Your dinner's in the fridge.

I'm going home.

Thank you.

I can't take it.

You and that boy

have ruined my life.

No! Mama, no!

Where are you?

Bad, bad boy.

You must be punished.

You're a bad mother.

Hey, you all right?

Hey, leave her alone.
