in regard to the child,

we urgently request

that you still come in today.

What's wrong with our child?

Didn't Anna write anything to you?

Good morning, Mr. Goldbeck.

The route has been calculated.

Good that you've come.

Please, follow me.

Mr. Goldbeck...

Imagine that at the end of your life,

you could start all over again...

in a young, beautiful and healthy body!

Test our offer.

We offer more

than just a three month guarantee.

We can do everything you requested.

The genetic material is taken

from the parents

and put into the embryo

to meet your desires.

Mr. And Mrs. Goldbeck,

your daughter, at two.

She has your eyes, Mrs. Goldbeck.

Age ten.

Fifteen.

At twenty.

An interesting idea.

Your idea, Mrs. Goldbeck.

What about Sarah and the African?

Will they be asked? It's their child, too!

But I thought our main concern

is that it becomes your child,

or... did I misunderstand something?

You have nothing to worry about.

All tests we made were positive.

Anna! My darling.

The young people signed a contract.

You need more time?

One decision you really must make.

Tomorrow, the three months are over.

Excuse me...

What decision?

- Mr. Goldbeck,

whether you keep your new bodies!

If so, then we cremate your old ones.

Hello! Hello!

Your visit is a pleasure for me.

Thanks.

Tomorrow is the day.

I wrote it down.

Tomorrow, the fate of my oldest

and best friend will be decided.

Would you like some water, too?

No.

Thank you, Hermann.

You know what? You're not them.

You're not Hermann, and you're not Anna.

What do you mean?

I think I know

how Menzel's technology works.

Your memories were scanned

and reconstructed in the host's brain.

You "woke up" inside the two blacks

convinced that you're really yourselves.

In truth, you're a copy.

You can't sign away your bodies;

let yourself be cremated.

Don't let it happen.

Don't tell us what to do!

Excuse me...

I still have to feed the dog.

One more thing, Hermann.

Take a look... here.

We have to help these people.

It's already happening.

You just have to sign.

Apolain, come to bed. Have you gone crazy?

What are you doing there?

I never thought that the white devil

would do anything for us.

For our families.

We can't turn back anymore.

It's too late.

We would lose everything.

We have to see Dr. Menzel tomorrow,

or we'll never be free.

Even if a piece of wood floats in water

for a hundred years,

it'll never become a crocodile...

Your past bodies will be cremated today.

I would not recommend being present.

Dr. Menzel, what happens

with the security guard now?

I don't think we need the guard

and cameras anymore.

Please.

By the way,

those are wonderful sculptures.

Thank you.

From Africa?

I wish you both the best.

If you ever have any questions,

just call me. You know, nightmares...

We thank you.

I'm a passionate collector.

I buy them when I'm there on business.

These are from Egypt.

Were you ever in Egypt, Mrs. Goldbeck?

Yes.

- Good...

One last thing.

It's not her fault. Let Sarah go.

Sarah's property of the corporation.

Her body will soon be perfect again.

It is my child. My baby!

Nobody may kill it!

No! No! Let Sarah go!

It's not her fault! No!

No! No! Apolain! No!

No! No! Murderers!

That's fraud, Dr. Menzel!

And you know it.

Mr. Goldbeck, you two wanted

to be young.

And I gave you that.

You failed, Dr. Menzel!

Your system doesn't work.

It is perfect, Mr. Goldbeck.

Thanks to Apolain's treachery,

we learned the weak link.

Now it is perfect.

In exchange for Sarah and Apolain,

I'm offering two new bodies.

These two have the highest ratings

in moral competency.

What'll happen to Sarah and Apolain?

And to the child?

Regrettably,

we can't stop the child.

Sarah and Apolain stay in the program,

after a probation period.

We want to buy them free.

How much do you want?

We don't sell people.

We are not slave traders.

Naturally you're slave traders.

Omnipotent.

Like God, you allot us new bodies

from an inexhaustible stock of young people.

Let Sarah and Apolain free.

Or we'll go public.

I have influential friends...

Your offer is ridiculous.

We reject it. Even your father is dead.

He didn't even believe in your transfers.

Mr. Goldbeck,

do you really think my father

would give mankind something like this

and not take advantage of it himself?

What's that mean?

What are you saying?

Perhaps there would be no love

without death, Mrs. Menzel,

but you wouldn't understand that.

I'm tired.

I want to go home.

Everything will turn out fine, butterfly.

Everything will turn out fine.

But not the way you think.

You'll soon have to continue without me.

You know my old, sick body

doesn't have much time left.

How should I continue without you?

You must continue, Hermann.

You have to free Sarah and Apolain

from this prison.

We owe them that.

Do you still remember

what we always used to wish?

To die together.

That was our dream.

I'll be waiting for you.

But don't take too long, you hear?

You're beautiful, Anna.

The only one for me, my butterfly.

My condolences, Mrs. Goldbeck.

His body was weak.

The personal transfer is enjoying

ever-increasing popularity.

Over 400 people have taken advantage

of this wonderful opportunity to date.

The couples among them have given birth

to 21 healthy children.

All the children grow up loved

and cared for.

Don't delay.

You have more than just the past.

You have a future.
