Surrogates Page #4

This thing killed 5 cops.

One of my men.

Almost put me in the ground.

I know it's a weapon.

I want to know what kind.

- You're asking me to compromise highly

classified information...

- I know where it is.

Where is it?

Right...

Is called an O.D.

Overload Device.

The idea was to end

the battle with one shot.

Giving the software virus straight to the CPU.

Disables the Surries instantly.

We didn't know the virus would

defeat the built in failsafes.

...kill the operators.

Who makes it?

VSI.

After the test

the project was scrapped.

Every unit was destroyed.

Except this one right?

Where is it?

Right now it's in the hands

of the Human Coalition.

- How long have they had it?

- A day...

Maybe two.

This is out of your hands.

Military will handle this.

- You called for us?

- Take this to

the federal building downtown.

A woman will meet you there.

Agent Jennifer Peters.

You're to give it to her... and her alone.

Peters.

What are you doing?

Just a background check on VSI.

Structural stuff.

Those are internal financial records.

Talk to Jenkins in corporate.

Don't forget the cheek bones.

Okay, honey.

Face off.

Maggs.

Hiya Tom.

Those ugh... Smile muscles need to set.

- Hey.

- Hi.

I'm sorry about last night.

I'm at work Tom.

- I didn't come here to argue.

- Good.

See I feel like I've gone crazy.

It's...

I just...

I love you.

I love this smart, beautiful

Intelligent, funny

Woman... And...

I can't sleep.

And when I do... I have these dreams that are...

And I can't stop

thinking about him.

Tom... don't...

Don't you ever think about him?

Of course I think about him Tom.

You say you don't sleep?

You say you have nightmares?

That girl who you say

is funny and charming and whitty...

And has a great smile...

she doesn't smile anymore.

I don't believe that.

The only reason I can get up in the

morning and get out of the house

Is because THIS is who I am now.

- That's okay, honey.

- No, no.

- No.

- Maggie.

- NO!

Maggie wait.

Brothers and sisters gather

close and prepare yourselves.

The day of the resurrection is upon us.

The day we make history.

The day we launch the revolution!

We all know what we're looking for.

Remember... Do not fire

unless absolutely necessary.

Biologicals here.

Over there!

- Cease fire!

- Hands on your head.

- Cease fire.

My God.

I couldn't figure out why

the cops let Strickland off.

So I started going

through the payroll records.

You won't believe this.

- For the last 16 months...

- He was working for us.

That's right.

Which means Stones

gotta be dirty.

Looks like he hired Strickland to kill Canter.

Hey Tom.

I thought you were on leave?

Oh yeah... I am.

Actually I was just suspended.

Another investigation,

I'll just clear my desk out.

You should be home.

Recuperating Ok?

Not walking around here in the flesh...

I was at home then I came

here to clean out my desk.

And you know... before the

medication kicks in... Hopefully...

I can find a box...

And... Oh...

Victor Welsh wanted me to say hello.

I'm sorry?

Victor Welsh, VSI, the good looking kid?

Very excited you coming over there, finally

moving into the private sector

You must be excited.

Why don't you come into my

office, you're not looking too sharp.

Yeah Yeah... I got a minute.

It's a good move for you.

It's a really good group over there.

Smart.

Talented.

Great legal department.

Great working environment.

You gotta be happy with those

first year stock options huh?

What are you talkin' about?

Myles Strickland, the guy I was chasing...

The guy you hired to kill Canter.

- Tom you got it all wrong.

- You gave him the weapon.

VSI makes them.

They give one to you, you give it to

Strickland so he can go out and kill Canter.

The only problem is, he

killed his son by mistake.

- Something is wrong with you.

- Why are you doing this?

Money? Is that what it is?

You need help.

This is Stone. That son of a

b*tch Greer disabled my unit!

Stop him!

Go... Go!

Jesus. No wonder VSI

wants Canter dead.

He's in bed with The Prophet.

He's funding the

Anti-Surrogacy Movement.

He's given them names.

Crazy bastard invents surragotes and

does everything he can to destroy them.

It doesn't connect Stone to the murder.

We need to link him to the weapon.

He needed codes to use it.

I want you to look for access codes.

You get the codes... You nail Stone.

Good job Agent Greer.

Thank you.

This is Agent Peters. I found Greer.

He's been in an accident at

Market and Hanover.

- FBI!!!

- Get out of the car!

He's gone.

Scanning for identity chip.

He doesn't have one, he's a meatbag!

There's and exit in the back!

Hey! Where you going?!

HEY!!!

Bobby it's Greer.

I need a remote shutdown.

Agent Peters has been hijacked.

You gotta disconnect her.

Bobby?

Hello Bobby?

Peters.

Have you gone insane?

Why don't you put the gun down? huh?

What are you trying to prove?

She's grabbing into the entire 3rd network!

Maggie get offline right away, as

soon as you get this message.

Something is going to

happen to the surrogates.

- She'll only speak to you sir. - Why don't

you just move in and take her down huh?

She has a human hostage.

Uh... the slob Saunders...

Peters?

Peters it's me Andy Stone.

That's far enough Stone.

I know who hired you to kill me.

I hope my old partners

at VSI paid you well.

Did you feel even a second of remorse when

you found out you murdered an innocent boy?

Canter?

I don't believe it.

Ok... How about you tell me something Doctor.

Huh?

What did you expect VSI to do?

Just stand by while you tore

down everything they built?

You left us no choice

but to take you out.

You created the technology, you changed

the world and now want to destroy it?

So what?

So you can take us backwards?

So we can all live like Dreads?

So we can live like

human beings.

Really Doctor?

You should learn

how to live with your regrets.

Now give me the gun.

That's for my son.

I need to see your boss.

I need to see Dr. Canter right away!

Oh good... Listen to me... I

gotta to see your boss. Dr. Canter he...

Device connected.

Over here officers, this way.

Warning! Commencing Upload.

Hello Tom.

Nice to finally meet you.

In the flesh.

Now... Lie on the floor, face down.

It's a little different when you have

to kill somebody with your own hands.

You're going to have to squeeze the trigger.

You don't have a machine to do your dirty work.

Feel that?

An accelerated pulse, the

heightened awareness...

Savouring each breath

as if it were your last.

That what you've been missing.

That's what everbodys been missing.

- So you kill millions of people?

- I changed the course of human

history when I invented surrogates.

Now I'm going to change it back.

You can't change what's been done.

You and I know that

better than most people.

My son's death will not

have been in vain.

Not if it heals mankind.

Heals mankind?

That what you want to do?
