The Signal

---

Which one are you

going for, bud?

The white one?

With goggles?

Okay, I'm gonna show you

how to get there. Okay?

Okay, you're gonna follow

this line till it gets to...

Till it gets to

this circle, okay?

When it hits that circle,

you press the button.

Then you're gonna

follow this bottom line

until it gets to this circle.

Then you press the button,

okay? Got it?

Okay, you got any money?

Okay, well, here's $1.

Good luck.

Hey.

Nomad's back.

He's messing with us again.

What did he say?

"Your hack into MI servers was legit."

That was fast.

"Ta, ta, ta."

What is that?

"They put that sh*t on us.

"We almost got expelled."

"Vibes."

Who's this Vibes?

Okay, guy.

"We're going to

expose you at DEF CON,

"so you better

watch your back."

Dude, what is that?

What the...

Go into the building.

Get the Pwnie.

All right, let's do this.

Open up a Linux terminal and start an Nmap,

dude

Haley's gonna have

to drive tomorrow.

Hey, focus.

That's what I'm saying,

I won't be able to.

Technically

she's the one moving,

so technically

she should be driving.

Is it open yet?

In a sec.

Okay, I'm good.

Okay.

Okay, type something.

I'm trying to think

of something funny.

Damn.

"Do androids take

an electric sheet?"

You're stupid.

Okay, read me out the IPs

on the C&C servers.

"192. 236. 19. 147."

Start sniffing connections.

Copy that.

Firing up the listeners.

All right,

this guy's toast.

Nevada.

Dude, we're going

right through Nevada.

We got him.

We got him!

Are you guys being

serious right now?

Well, you're driving

in the morning,

so good night.

I'd like to see you make me,

you Caltech turncoat.

Haley, this fish tank's

leaking something.

It's water, Jonah.

It's gross.

Shut up.

You Caltech turncoats.

Dude, can you stop saying that?

Signal sucks out here.

You're right, it does suck.

Hey, you want one of these?

No, I'm good, thanks.

You want?

Dude.

What?

Check this out.

What the hell?

Why isn't that working?

Is that my car?

Yeah.

It's a traffic camera.

This guy is so gnarly.

How does he have

a picture of my car?

Hold on a sec.

Why would this guy go to all

the trouble to hack into MIT,

and then, you know,

just taunt us like this?

The same reason anyone does anything.

Acknowledgment.

"I'm better than you,

you're better than me," whatever.

Here, dude, I can't unlock it.

You try.

You guys should just

stop provoking him.

He's probably

just some little kid.

Nic, are we doing this or not?

I can't, dude.

What do you mean, you can't?

I just can't right now.

Look,

I get we have to take Haley to California.

But there's no reason

we shouldn't do this, too.

Nomad hacking into MIT is one thing,

but Haley's computer?

No, but it's crazy

not to go after this guy.

Jonah, what's the sales tax?

We're so close.

6.3.

It's on the way.

$14.74.

You can keep the change.

You guys want something?

Yeah.

Coffee?

Yeah, I'd love a coffee.

Black?

There you go.

Yeah, please.

What?

Has Nic said anything

to you about me moving?

No.

Nothing?

No, obviously he's bummed you're

gonna be gone for a year.

It just seems like

he's trying to

distance himself

from me, you know?

Look, you guys

are my best friends,

and I'm just...

I'm the wrongest guy to ask.

Yeah.

Oh, crap.

Hey.

You all right, bud?

I'm fine.

Yeah?

I'm fine, I'm fine.

I'm gonna get more coffees.

I'm gonna move the car.

Best friends!

Is this one mine?

Yeah.

I already put two in.

I got it.

Nic, I offer to help not

because I think you need it,

but because I know you don't.

Yeah, well, you won't have to

worry about that soon, will you?

Okay.

Thanks, bud.

We're not really that far from this guy,

are we?

180 miles, give or take.

All right, dude, let's do it.

Let's go.

Now, see, this is

the Nicholas Eastman I love.

You know, just determined,

ruthless, competitive.

Oh, and favors caffeine.

Where's Haley?

I don't know.

I think she walked, uh...

That way.

Haley, look, I'm sorry.

It's just, I've been distracted.

I think you're getting ready

to make a big speech.

I think this whole trip is about

you getting ready to make it.

What are you talking about?

I'm not gonna make a speech.

Stop.

Haley, you know how many times

I've played this out in my head?

Twice-a-week

doctor's appointments.

Who knows how many

MRIs and tests.

Eventually a wheelchair.

All the time wondering if

you're gonna break up with me.

Stop. When you're gonna get

tired of this bullshit.

It's not fair to make me the

bad guy without my input.

Haley, that's not

what I'm saying.

I'm just saying I'm not gonna

be the guy who holds you back.

Cool. So, uh...

I move away for one year

and because you're scared

of what's gonna happen,

you immediately

resort to breaking up?

I'm just saying...

I'm just saying I need to

protect myself.

From what?

Is it your heart

talking or your head?

It's me talking.

But you're the one

that always told me

to run toward something

and not away from it.

Yeah, well, that was

before all this sh*t.

What are you doing?

You can keep your promises.

I don't want them.

Haley.

You just take a left up here.

It's about 20 miles or so.

Maybe we should

drop Haley off first.

Can you not talk about me

like I'm not in the car?

Haley, you don't

have to come along.

No, I wanna meet this a**hole.

Me, too.

Just keep going.

We still got, like, a quarter mile.

- Stop, stop, we passed it.

- What?

Yeah, back up.

Say, 20 or 30 feet.

Stop, stop.

- I think it's right here.

- You serious?

It's right here.

It's right here.

Don't get us stuck.

Please, Nic.

We're fine.

It's over here.

You should kill the headlights.

Are you sure

you want to do this?

I'm not gonna lie.

This doesn't look right.

What do you think?

We're not gonna know

by sitting in the car.

Come on, let's go.

Get your camera.

Haley, stay in

and lock the doors, okay?

Nic.

You know all this

is stupid, right?

Where do you think

we went wrong?

What are you talking about?

You know, it must have been,

like, a random IP allocation.

Like, they could be

in Georgia for all we know.

Like, Europe Georgia.

Shut up.

Or they could be

using this as a relay point.

A big mama sat in that chair.

I'm gonna have to say

there's nobody here, Nic.

Dude, Nomad is not here.

Let's take a look.

He's not here.

We'll take a look

and then we'll go.

Let's go find him.

A hillbilly lives here.

This guy has a baby?

Shh!

Shh!

Jonah?

Jonah?

Jonah?

Dude, I can see you.

What are you doing?

Hey!

Dude,

you're such an a**hole!

How funny is this little chair?

It was really facing

the corner like this.

Come on.

There's a basement.

You're such a kike.

Go down.

Screw that, you go down.

Be careful.

What is this place?

Check it out, man.

What are those?

Server racks.

That's weird.

Oh, wait. Haley!

Haley! Haley! Haley!

Haley!

What the hell?

- What was that sound?

- I don't know.

Why are the car doors open like that?
