Total Recall Page #4
AV-81,
he's headed eastbound on Wellington.
I want you there before he is, do you copy?
Copy that, 905.
All vehicle and air support,
proceed to Wellington.
Establish a barricade in zone 217.
Central, I want all units
Drive him into that barricade.
Do not allow him any room for evasion.
Is that clear?
Copy that, 905.
All vehicles, hold position.
Oh, sh*t.
Sh*t.
Warning, mag suspension cannot be
disengaged while vehicle is in operation.
What the hell are you doing?
You're gonna need your seat belt on!
Warning, mag suspension cannot be
disengaged while vehicle is in...
They've got a lock on the vehicle.
Are they clear to engage?
You are clear to engage.
- Got it?
- No, no!
- You got it?
- Yes!
Sh*t!
Welcome. Operating systems activated.
The key, the key, the key.
I'm recording this message
as a fail-safe, so if you're watching this now,
it means you're in some seriously deep sh*t.
But the good news is you made it here,
which means my instincts are right.
Somewhere inside of you, you're still me.
My name...
Your name is Carl Hauser.
Oh, sh*t.
This recording has limited
interactive capabilities.
Please rephrase the question.
You work with Matthias.
Yes.
But I've never met the man.
Hardly anyone has.
I was given a direct order by Cohaagen
to infiltrate the Resistance and kill Matthias.
But then,
I met a woman
And she opened my eyes.
And she showed me
the Resistance are the ones
I should be fighting for, not against.
You mean the terrorists.
Listen, the Resistance are not terrorists.
They just want equality for The Colony.
And freedom.
Those bombings in the U.F.B.,
they're being orchestrated
by Cohaagen himself.
Trust me,
he was my commanding officer in the war.
I know exactly what
this a**hole is capable of.
people? I don't understand.
To justify building
a bigger army of synthetics.
Don't you get it?
The U.F.B. is running out of living space.
Cohaagen's going to level
the entire Colony and rebuild.
Then he'll simply
replace the workers with synthetics.
Innocent people will die.
But we can stop him, you and me.
What do you mean, me?
There's a way to shut down
all the synthetics.
There's a kill code.
All right, it's along, complex sequence,
but I got a look at it
Which means it's still
somewhere in my mind.
In your mind.
Matthias will know how to get it out.
You need to get to Matthias.
It's the only chance we have
of stopping the invasion.
Take it from the one person
who knows you even better than you do.
I know you can do this.
I've done a lot of wrong in my life.
This is the chance to do something right.
Millions of lives are in your hands.
Good luck, buddy.
You have got to be kidding me.
This can't be happening.
Shouldn't have come here.
Yeah, I know.
I had no choice.
I know that this is a lot to take.
Yeah, it's a lot to take.
Yeah, I'm supposed to believe this?
It's the truth.
Hauser, we have been looking for you.
Don't call me...
My name is Doug Quaid.
I was born August 29th.
All right, I was raised by my mother.
She died of cancer ten days
before my 15th birthday.
I married my girlfriend when I was 29!
You were born April 29th.
You were raised by your father,
not your mother.
He died before you were 15,
but in a car crash.
And believe me, you were
most definitely not married.
I'm sorry. You know what?
None of this makes any sense to me.
I'm Doug Quaid, that's all I know.
You recognised me.
From a dream.
I recognise you from a dream.
It wasn't a dream.
It was a memory.
That scar on your hand,
how do you think you got it?
Do you know?
I got it at work.
I was trying to help you escape,
but I was too late.
You grabbed onto me
and a bullet tore through
your hand and mine.
You must remember something.
And you and I, we were...
Yeah.
We got to go. We got to go.
Sh*t. Come on, come on.
Doug!
Harry?
Harry, what are you doing here?
They sent me in for you.
To talk you down.
Who sent you in?
Doug-
you don't get it.
I don't mean they sent me in here.
I mean, they sent me into your mind.
I need you to listen to me.
You're suffering what's called
a paranoid dissociative break.
What are you talking about?
You're not really here, Doug.
You're still back at Rekall,
strapped to a chair.
None of this is real.
Back at Rekall?
He's lying.
He's lying!
Just slow down.
Harry, what are you talking about?
They chemically
transfused me into your mind.
They thought a familiar face might
help, to try and bring you back
before it's too late
and you're trapped here forever.
Do not listen to them. They're just trying
to recover what's in your head.
Lori?
- What's she doing here?
- She's here, too, Doug.
What's she doing here?
She's in the room, beside you,
holding your hand right now,
worried sick.
It's her presence you're sensing.
She's... She's trying to kill me!
- No.
- Harry!
Not the real Lori, Doug.
As soon as I told her what was happening at
Rekall, she came straight over.
I had to call her at work.
She loves you, Doug.
Lori didn't work last night, Harry.
You're lying. You're lying.
Why are you lying to me?
Only because you wanted me to.
You're clinging to the delusion.
He's lying!
Harry?
Harry.
I swear to God, put it down
Harry, what are you doing?
Harry, what are you doing?
This is not a delusion!
No?
Okay, fine.
Tell you what.
Would I have done that if this were for real?
He's trying to manipulate you
- We got to get out of here.
- And go where?
There's no getting
out of your own head, Doug.
But you can escape this nightmare
if you let me help you.
Help me how?
- Don't listen to him.
- How can you help me?
Don't listen to him.
You have to shoot her, Doug.
What, now?
I know that's asking a lot,
but she's at the epicentre of this whole
twisted fantasy of yours.
- Hauser...
- Which is why
it would mean nothing if we were to kill her.
It's you who has to choose reality.
You shoot her, Doug, and I promise you,
you will gasp awake
and find me sitting in the room beside you.
Turn, and you'll see your beautiful,
loving wife.
She wants you back, Doug.
We both do.
That's right, Doug.
Come on back.
Come on back, Doug.
I can't let them take you away.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
Of course she can't do it.
She's not real.
Now you just need to prove it to yourself.
End her, Doug.
End this nightmare.
Shoot her!
Kill her, damn it!
Shoot!
Jesus Christ.
God damn it, Harry!
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Come on.
You still out there, baby?
Or I suppose I should be calling you Hauser.
I guess the joke's on me.
I really thought you were a loser.
Turns out, I was living with
the greatest intelligence agent alive.
Cohaagen still wants you back, you know.
Guess he still has faith in you.
But then you always were the favourite.
