Before he has chance to find out the truth, he is attacked by a group who want him dead. Adam must escape and find out the truth from the creator of the clones, Michael Drucker (Goldwyn). Adam knows for sure he couldn't have been cloned, but isn't ready for what he's about to hear.

your wife and kid, you'll

tell me where Adam Gibson is.

We'll get my syncording back,

we'll get rid of him.

Tell me where Adam Gibson is.

We'll get my syncording back,

we'll get rid of him.

We'll get my syncording back,

we'll get rid of him.

And they'll never have to know

that you're the clone.

It's that or lose them forever.

You know, Adam. I'm not making

this offer because I have to.

I can get everything I need

from your memories.

The fact is, ld like you

to understand you'd also

be serving a higher purpose.

In two years, three tops,

I will control enough votes

to get the laws changed.

And then we won't have to lose

our best people. We won't

have to lose our Mozarts.

We won't have to lose

our Martin Luther Kings.

We'll be able to conquer death.

We will finally

be able to conquer death.

And who gets to decide

who lives and who dies, you?

You have a better idea?

Yeah, what about god?

Oh, you're one of those.

I suppose you think science

is inherently evil.

No, I don't think

science is inherently evil.

But I think you are.

If you believe that god

created man in his own image,

then you also believe

that god gave man the power

to understand evolution.

To exploit science,

to manipulate the genetic code,

to do exactly what I am doing.

I'm just taking over

where god left off.

If you really believe that,

then you should clone yourself

while you're still alive.

And why is that?

So I can understand

your unique perspective?

No. So you can

go f*** yourself.

Now you're gonna

tell us where you put

Mr. Drucker's syncording!

You won't find it in my head.

I told him to hide it so

I wouldn't know where it is.

We'll see about that,

won't we?

Yeah, we will.

[Grunting]

Let's go. Get in here.

Come on! Come on!

Come on!

Fine, have it your way.

# Take a piece of me #

# A piece that you can't see #

# Take a piece of me #

# The one that I won't give up #

# Go easy on me ##

That didn't

hurt so bad, did it?

A**hole.

Let's go back a few minutes.

- [Adam] here it is,

Drucker's syncording.

- There's the other one.

Keep this and wait here.

If lm not back in an hour,

you know what to do.

Don't worry. Anything

happens to you or my family,

lm gonna destroy

that son of a b*tch.

You got the location?

The airport. I was just there.

He'll be dead in 20 minutes.

Let's go.

Betrayed by your own mind.

- Wait, wait!

- What?

They staged that scene

for our benefit.

The other one

was sitting behind him

so we couldn't see him. Look.

The bastard faked

his own syncording.

The other one was hiding

in the whispercraft...

and this one

avoided looking at him

so he wouldn't be in his memory.

- You mean the other one's

in this building too?

- Yes, that's correct.

Now, warn Vincent.

Put out another alert.

This one is the diversion.

He smashes all the cameras.

He gets himself captured.

Meanwhile, the other one's

free to just stroll in here

and take his wife and kid.

[Alarm blaring]

[Grunts]

- [Talia]

Idiot!

- Oh.

- [Groans]

- Natalie! Clara!

Daddy!

Oh, my god!

What's going on?

It's me.

Daddy?

[Drucker screams]

Oh, god!

- Don't worry, sir.

Get him up.

- Oh, sh*t.

- Everything's okay now.

- I'm scared, dad.

I'm scared.

This isn't because

of the cigar?

No, lll explain later.

Dad, lm scared.

Don't worry.

He's not going anywhere, sir.

We'll get him. Let's go.

Wait! Talia, you go.

You two stay here.

Have 'em block

all the exits.

Yeah, Henderson, come in.

Seal off the entire tank areas,

levels six and seven.

I'm trying, sir.

Give me a minute.

And get us some power

up here.

Don't move!

My daughter is right inside

that door.

Now, I don't want

to expose her

to any graphic violence.

She already gets enough

of that from the media.

Put your weapons down.

Nice and easy.

Good. Now, when

you go inside, you say...

have a nice flight.

Have a nice flight,

little girl.

Friends of daddy's.

All right, let's go.

Have a little midnight flight

with daddy and mommy.

There we are. All right?

Sorry.

There you go, sir.

Wiley. Go.

All right.

Wiley, just wait one second.

- Not again!

- [Wiley screams]

And don't

bring him back.

Stupid bastard blew a hole

through my stomach.

Oh, god!

I'll be dead

in 20 minutes tops.

But what better place,

right?

Henderson?

Where's my power?

Relays are coming

on-line now, sir.

[Henderson]

Get all exits blocked.

All exits!

Sh*t!

Go start warming up

a blank.

I want a fresh syncording.

I want my mind

to be up to the minute.

Okay, here it is.

This is a fresh one.

[Marshall]

This will be

a complete syncording.

- [Talia groaning]

- [Drucker]

Is that Talia?

[Talia]

Sh*t!

Go help her.

We'll find him.

What have you got?

Tanks three and four, nothing.

Okay, go.

Take the back walk.

- [Yelling]

- [Screaming]

- [Gunshot]

No!

No.

[Yells] oh, god!

[Gasps]

[Gasping]

Oh, no.

- Take her to your mother's.

Stay there until I pick you up.

- I got her.

Come with us, daddy.

I have to help a friend, okay?

Bye.

Love you.

- [Gasping]

- Wiley, you shot me!

Oh, right.

That was you.

I gotta get dressed.

[Groans]

You're not even gonna wait

until... I die?

Would you?

Come on, get it off.

Blood on the jacket.

Jesus Christ.

[Gasps, mutters]

What?

[Mumbles]

What?

- [Gasps]

- What?

Look. Adam,

we can make a deal.

You have absolutely no reason

to kill me. I didn't do anything

to you. It was all him.

Listen to me.

I can rebuild all of this

in a very short time.

I can still save you, Adam.

Save me?

We put congenital defects

into the clone D.N.A. to give

the clones short life spans.

You want to know what

you're gonna die of?

How long you've got to live?

We can go right upstairs,

right now,

and look it up.

We all have to die someday.

We don't have to die.

I'm offering you the chance

to live forever.

Never aging.

Perfect in every way.

Perfect?

Like you?

Look!

Here is your perfection!

No.

No. No. No.

Oh, god.

Oh, god.

There's no need

to panic.

I can fix this.

No, you won't fix anything.

It's over. It's finished.

It's finished!

[Groans]

[Groans]

When I said you should

screw yourself, I didn't mean

for you to take it literally.

Go after him.

Just get him.

[Security guard]

Check the roof.

You, you, up top!

[Guard]

He's goin' up!

He's goin' up the stairs!

Come on!

- Can you fly this?

- Better than you can.

Good. Because

your shooting sucks.

Let's get out of here.

[Glass cracking]

[Yelling]

[Yelling]

Oh, sh*t!

Come on! Come on!

Try to climb over me!

Come on! Hurry up!

Sh*t!

Come on!

Oh, sh*t!

You know, I keep wondering.

Am I really human?

Do I have a soul?

Well, your D.N.A. scan

came back normal.

Didn't it?

Yeah.

Zero defects.

Just like a RePet commercial.

Well, if you're not human,

don't you think

they would've mentioned it?

All right, enough philosophy.

I better get going.

I got three weeks at sea

to figure that out.

You have to hurry
