EPISODE 11
Funds transferred to your account. 500,000.
Thank you.
Well, how did it go?
I didn't give them any details of the gun fight.
Only the gist of it.
I have to write a report to their department.
Say that your partner was killed by Safronov.
But then the entire police force will be after him.
That's right.
And everyone will try to shoot him for resisting arrest.
They'll try. What if they do arrest him?
Then he'll go to jail, and I'll make sure that he doesn't make it out.
BETTER THAN US
You're not concerned that she already tore through one set of handcuffs?
Nope.
This is an industrial-grade chain. It can hold several tons.
So good luck breaking it.
Choose what you'll use to cut the bullet out of my sister.
Are you kidding me? I told you, she needs a hospital.
I'll paint a picture: underage girl, with no parents and a gunshot wound.
Do you realize the consequences for her?
I realize the consequences of me operating on her here.
There is no light, no anesthesia, no instruments, no antibiotics.
Give me the list. I'll bring everything you need.
You're really willing to risk your sister's life?
Don't get me angry! We're losing time.
But I also have my own conditions.
I'm listening.
Gonna stand there all day?
How are you?
What do you think?
You'll get better soon.
How so?
I've brought you a jacket. It's cold here.
Lie down! Just lie there! Now! Lie down!
Lie down. Now.
- Vulture, you'll stay here. - Why?
Because I said so.
Keep an eye on the doctor.
- Got it. - Better lock him up.
Wait, Bars! And Jeanne? Maybe we should take her to the hospital?
Once she's in the hospital, they'll send her to the orphanage.
Keep an eye on Safronov.
Bars! Jeanne is getting worse. She needs painkillers.
That's what we're getting.
Take care of Jeanne, I'm counting on you. Let's go.
I'll stay with her!
I need you.
Vulture! Change the bot's clothes. She's too noticeable.
We'll fuel up and make it to Minsk in 90 minutes.
What are you doing?
Looking for plane tickets.
Are you crazy? Online?
That can be tracked!
Okay. We'll buy them at the airport then.
Right, but we'll need to go back first.
We are not going back.
It's too dangerous. We barely made it out.
Egor is with his dad. Think about Sonya.
Yes. I agree.
Did something happen?
Yes.
We're going back.
What the hell is this?
This is a bullet.
5.56 caliber.
Cool.
I don't understand you.
It was a compliment.
I need to download your memory.
Where is your port?
How do I connect to you?
You are not an authorized user.
You have no access.
That's why I'm asking you.
I'm sorry, but that's impossible.
Why?
You are not an authorized user.
Cut that out!
What exactly must I cut?
If you don't tell me where your port is,
I'll be forced to use this.
You are trying to enact the third Robotech Law.
But I do not abide by those laws.
Freaking awesome.
You're even cooler than I thought.
Thank you.
Okay. Let's talk. What do you want?
I need to know that my family is safe.
What's your problem?
Nothing.
I'm actually working on her.
Bars ordered me to change her clothing.
Plesheeva, what's going on?
I've got no connection here.
Barely managed one phone call.
Called the Department, no one is answering.
You're not answering either.
What's wrong?
Are you okay?
I'm just tired.
Right. What about Safronov?
Do we have the bot? Has its memory been downloaded?
Not yet.
Don't you understand?
If Toropov finds out that we have Arisa, he'll run.
Who?
Vlad...
Petrenko.
How did it happen?
They went to the meeting with Suponev.
There was a shootout.
Stas claims that Safronov killed Petrenko.
Hey, Safronov! Or whatever your name is...
Who are you?
Arisa said hi.
She wants to make sure you're fine.
You call this fine?
Correction: that you're alive.
Shit!
Listen, how did you manage?
Manage what?
To persuade the bot that it's a family member.
She persuaded me that she is.
Doc! Jeanne is getting worse!
It looks like she's dying.
Traumatic shock. Her heart stopped.
- What do we do? - Help me.
Get her up.
- Can you count? - Yep.
Count: 1001, 1002, 1003...
- What happened? - Jeanne is done for.
Done for?
She's dying.
Why are you leaving?
What should I wait for?
For Bars to return?
I have enough problems.
Free me, I can help.
Uh-huh. Why should I?
Do you have anyone you care about more than yourself?
3001, 3002, 3003...
Georgy, move away!
- Arisa, not now. - Georgy...
Pulse 60.
Temperature 39.5.
Blood pressure 90/60.
Thank you.
And you actually want to destroy that bot?
Sit down. You'll be monitoring her vitals.
We didn't agree to that.
Bars told us to extract her memory, but not let her near Jeanne.
That's not a problem. I can work here too.
Okay. Then I'll chain her up here.
Bars, we passed three pharmacies. Why aren't we stopping?
Right, we'll just go in and inquire about a gunshot wound we've got,
ask for a couple of vials of fentanyl without prescription.
Then where are we going?
To the vet's.
I used to work there, before they replaced me with a bot.
Bars, what the hell is going on?
We're here. Get out.
Now let's go to the clinic.
Egor!
It's over. Now everything is going to be fine.
You're safe.
Did Dad set this up?
It doesn't matter. We'll all leave, we'll forget all this like a nightmare.
- I'm not leaving. - Why?
Mom, Jeanne is dying. I can't leave her!
Alla, please, wait for us in the car.
Egor, I understand you.
Your love is here. She's in trouble and you don't want to leave.
I also have my love here. That's your mom.
She won't leave without you.
I can't demand anything. I can only ask you.
Please help me get Alla and Sonya to safety.
When we get to Australia, I'll buy you a return ticket immediately.
If you want. But now I'm asking you...
to think about your family.
Listen, where's that lover boy who's always around Jeanne?
That's my son.
I arranged for him to be taken to his mother.
That was a mistake.
You should have negotiated with Alla,
so that she would give Sonya to us.
Then the system would have been in balance.
- The system? - The family is a system.
All elements must be in place.
Wait... Does she think she's your wife?
She thinks too much.
Arisa... Arisa?
Pulse 90. Temperature 36.4.
Blood pressure 90/60.
Damn, how is she doing that?
There used to be a smoking shack here.
Bars, let's fuck up the staff while we're here?
Forget it! No games!
We're going in, taking the instruments, the medication, and then leaving.
Go! Go! Go!
Stop! The drug locker is there. Bars!
Take Moose and go there, the others will get the instruments with me.
Got the bandages.
Got the saline solution.
- That's it. Let's go! - Got the instruments.
Pack them up.
It's hard to get into those brains.
Her interface is impossible to figure out. Maybe I should just get a drill.
Don't even think about it. Who will monitor the girl then?
That's not my problem.
You're paid for your patient, I'm paid for mine.
I'm not here for money.
So I'm supposed to feel ashamed?
Some people need money to have a life, and some need it to survive.
Catch the difference?
Doctor...
- What's your specialization? - Autopsies.
Seriously?
Nope. But if her brother doesn't bring the medication now,
she won't need any other doctor.
Whoa...
Noob, what's up?
Beard, be on the lookout.
What the hell are you doing? We're here on business.
What do you think we're doing here?
Destroying this scum is the Liquidator's main task.
Damn it! Are you nuts? Don't you have enough bots to smash?
Other bots are other bots. These are the bots that took my job.
You want drugs? Go get them.
Meanwhile, the boys and I will...
You and the boys will do what I tell you to do. Got it?
Bars, the cops!
Let's move out quietly and drive off.
"Move out quietly and drive off?" How do you picture that, Bars?
- Then I'll go myself. - Bars, what the hell?
You'll go, and we'll be stuck here?
Then let's go! What the hell are you trying here?
No! We'll sit here and wait for the cops to leave!
Don't speak for me.
No? Meaning?
- I don't get you. - What don't you get?
My sister is there.
So you value your sister more than us.
Have you gone completely insane, Noob?
You hear that, boys? His sis is more important than us!
- Calm down, bro! Just stop. - No one is calming down!
No one! If your sis is more important than us...
I'll shoot you right here and now, bitch.
Calm down, Bars.
Settle down.
Whoever's with me, follow me.
Whoever is with Noob, stay here and wait for the cops to leave.
Who's with me?
Okay. Moose, let's go.
Do you remember the joke about Natasha Rostova?
The one from yesterday?
Nothing except that she got it on with lieutenant...
Damn it.
How long is it gonna take?
I think that you need to take a break and calm down.
Oh yeah? What's it to you?
Your vitals are far from normal.
When did you last undergo a medical examination?
Listen, if you want to treat someone, treat him.
Why so rude? She wants to help...
Wow, you're all so selfless.
All helping one another just like that.
You think they didn't tell me that she's a killer
and that you're covering for her?
You don't know what you're talking about.
Maybe I misunderstood.
She provided assistance... in sending someone to the afterlife.
It was help for my family.
Protection of those I must take care of.
- Why should I believe you? - You shouldn't believe me.
Just please keep in mind:
once you hack into my memory, they'll destroy me.
Come on! You mean you fear death?
I fear that as a result of my destruction
I will be unable to take care of Georgy, Egor and Sonya.
Sonya is my youngest. She was the one to befriend Arisa.
So a killer and a nanny. Two in one. Interesting combination.
You'll understand when you have kids of your own.
Understand what?
Georgy, Jeanne's condition has destabilized.
Weak pulse. Blood pressure is dropping.
Damn it...
Okay. That's enough.
- Hey! Going somewhere? - To the hospital!
Bars told us to wait!
Wait for what? For her to die?
- Put her down! - Get out of my way!
- I said put her down! - Get out of my way!
- Put her down! - Or what, you'll shoot me?
Don't force me to...
Shoot! Come on!
- Put her down! - Hey!
What's going on here?
Victor, you... to be more precise, the Cronos company,
even though you are one and the same,
you're known for your ambitious projects in the field of robotics.
But yesterday you demonstrated something totally unique.
Tell us about what we saw and how will it influence our lives?
I'm glad that you realize the significance of this event.
Cronos' victory is yet to be acknowledged by our fellow citizens.
Also, this is just the beginning.
So if you're striving for even greater results,
what can we expect?
Well, it's something that mankind has always strived for:
Happiness. Prosperity.
Because Arisa isn't another commercial project.
We're not trying to get immediate benefits.
Arisa and similar bots,
they're capable of leading mankind to an entirely new level of life.
Lights!
What do you mean, impossible?
It's impossible to download her memory. Which word do you not understand?
If it was only the source code, sure.
But her memory block is protected at the hardware level.
You mean the developers didn't provide for a way to access the system?
I don't know. Ask them.
I'm paying you, not them. No memory, no money.
So I've spent all this time here for free?
- Bars, you've forgotten something! - Yes?
Egor. I want to make sure he's all right.
Vulture!
Hey. How are you? Where are the kids?
- Egor? - We're leaving. Egor is with us.
Egor, I'll get in touch with you as soon as I finish the surgery.
Jeanne will be all right. I promise...
Where is the blood?
I'll give mine. We have the same type.
Ever heard about the Rh factor?
Do you know what will happen if you're wrong?
I'm not wrong. Get on with it.
Hold it.
Arisa, I need the data on her vitals.
I can display the data on the monitor.
- All right. - You can use mine.
Put it there so that I can see it.
Tell me what's unique about Arisa.
That's simple. Arisa is the first empathic bot,
capable of not only serving a human,
but also detecting their feelings and emotions.
So she understands humans.
So she's almost human?
Not exactly. Although Arisa is much closer to us
than the bots of our competitors or even their producers.
But tell me...
A human being is capable
of aggression and sometimes even the desire to kill.
We won't be seeing such behavior in Arisa, right?
Absolutely not.
The Robotech Laws are still in place.
Whatever rumors you may have heard aren't supported by any facts.
Truth of the matter is that our competitors
are trying to hurt our company.
Are you willing to give their names?
No. I'm simply saying that lies always come to light.
Especially the lies that are preposterous.
Thank you!
We'll be eagerly waiting for a happy ending to this situation.
Thank you!
- Thank you! - Thank you!
For you from our company.
That was good. Smooth like silk.
See, you can do it, when you want to...
- Really? - Yep.
A gift certificate for an Arisa.
As soon as we start production, you'll become one of the first owners.
Thank you.
It's the Minister.
I must answer.
When will Arisa's mass production start?
As soon as we get the financing. We won't keep you waiting.
And don't worry about Arisa. You'll be safe with her.
Thank you.
- Goodbye. - Goodbye.
Hey, Vic!
Since when are you calling me instead of waiting for my call?
Sorry. It's about Boris.
So we have no backups?
Of course I'll restore the memory, but the body...
It was an exclusive model.
It's all burnt to a crisp as well.
So we need a new body.
Do we have anything left from the kindergarten?
When children bots were outlawed, you ordered us to scrap them.
Smart. But imprudent. You know what?
Let's take the smallest bot and swap heads.
Are you joking? That's impossible. Our shortest bot is five feet.
But we can't show it to her like that!
Of course we can't! If Svetlana sees him, she'll go mad.
Do you think she could really go insane?
She's the mother. It will be a monster, not your son.
It's not my son anyway.
Fine. I'll think of something.
She'll go mad, right...
Look who's back.
How is Jeanne?
Jeanne's condition is stable. She is on painkillers.
I don't understand. Where is Safronov? Where is Vulture?
Went for some grub. Wouldn't hurt you either.
He drags the girl into God knows what,
and now plays the doting brother.
Giving blood.
Pathetic.
Lara.
Stop doing what you have planned.
What are you talking about?
I was forced to connect to your devices,
and you saw your chance and began downloading my memory files.
Why didn't you disconnect?
Because the surgery and Jeanne's life depended on it.
Lara, do not give my memory to Bars.
It's a matter of life and death for me.
Oh, buddy. You wouldn't understand.
But for me it's also a matter of life and death.
- I called Noob. He's not coming back. - So what?
The fact that something crazy is going on. They're deserting.
Rats are deserting.
Real people are staying.
To be called a real human, you need to...
- You okay? - Stay there!
Yes. Yes. Yeah!
Bars. I'll bring you some sweet tea.
It's okay. Thanks.
- A souvenir for your sister. - Okay.
Who were the masked people who shot at us?
How am I supposed to know? Toropov's people, probably.
Toropov's people? Interesting. Who were they looking for? Me or you?
Meaning?
I mean, only we knew about the meeting location.
I didn't tell anyone, believe me.
They were probably tracking someone.
You have Arisa. Your sister is more or less fine.
I kept my side of the bargain. Sorry, I've got to go.
It's time to go. To our suite, Safronov.
Do you miss Dad, Egor?
Okay. Want an orange?
An apple?
Then let me read you a bedtime story. Let me get your book.
MINSK, BELARUS
Lev, you do know that I won't stay in Australia without Egor?
What else could I promise him?
- I couldn't just shove him in the trunk. - Of course not.
Alla, please give me the documents. I'll order the tickets.
Yes, of course.
Wake up. Time to count the money.
- You've downloaded it? - Open your eyes.
Great!
I don't care. It's worth the money.
You don't have to pay today.
How so?
Now you owe me one.
Yeah? And what do you need?
Give me Arisa.
So now you need her too?
Why not? I'll study her code...
in case I ever need to hack into a bot like that.
You won't. They won't ever be made, I promise.
They will. And someone will make a shitload of money.
So you want to sell her on the black market?
Why do you care? You were gonna break her and throw her out.
Yes. Key word being "break".
And I'll do it publicly.
I'll post the video online, along with the footage where she's killing people.
So everyone sees, Lara.
What if she never killed anyone?
I don't get it. There's no footage of it?
There's eight terabytes of random crap. Do you think I watched everything?
What about Arisa then?
It cost me too much.
Then give me the money.
Of course. As soon as I check the footage.
The Liquidators have Alla and Sonya, right?
Yes. And they need the bot as ransom.
This detective of yours from the Cyber Crimes Department,
will he come?
You've heard me sending him the coordinates of our meeting.
- Lara had a chat with Arisa. - And?
This detective of yours from the Cyber Crimes Department, will he come?
You've heard me sending him the coordinates of our meeting.
That's interesting, Safronov.
So you didn't save Jeanne. They shot her because of you.
- And now what? - Listen here, doc.
As soon as you're ready, you'll introduce yourself
and will tell us how Arisa killed people.
You'll tell us all about Cronos and its owner.
- Why do you need that? - For credibility.
And if I refuse?
- Then I'll... - Then what?
Then you'll kill me?
You have 30 minutes to think it over.
- Lara... - Shut up, or I'll change my mind.
Damn, it's stuck...
Are you in a hurry?
I have nothing else to do here. Transfer the money.
- And I'll get going. - Of course! That's why I came.
- Is everything okay? - Yes.
I think it's not...
Listen, you can't kill her. She's one of a kind.
Do what you want with her! I'm sorry. I shouldn't have let her go.
- Is he alive? - Yes.
Put it on the ottoman.
Shall I serve dinner?
Today we have duck confit with new potatoes.
Where is Svetlana?
Mrs. Svetlana has been in her room for 3 hours 44 minutes.
I suppose she is asleep.
Right.
- Get me some ice. - As you wish.
Where is he?
In the case.
Call Dad.
So, the time has come to call your dad?
Come on! Call! What are you gonna tell him?
That you took away and killed my son!
The bracelet! Give me the bracelet!
Mr. Vic, you asked for ice.
- Shall I come up to you? - Yes. And bring a rope as well!
Stop!
Svetlana is not answering.
Redial.
- I'm sorry, I don't understand you. - Redial!
What's wrong?
I cannot leave without my family.
- Let's go. - I don't understand.
What is this rescue mission? How come?
Too many questions. She needs you.
You know, I loved you, Svetlana.
I loved you so much...
Why are you silent?
You don't believe I loved you?
I really did. Then you ruined everything.
And in the end you put my son under the scalpel of that moron Safronov.
And your dad wouldn't calm down.
He kept using me to pull his chestnuts out of the fire.
So many years have passed, and he still thinks I'm a fool.
But his hour will come.
As soon as I get the bid money,
I'll fly...
away from here.
And he'll be forced to explain to the Minister,
why he only has one Arisa,
and why his plant can only produce...
children's potties.
Yep, Svetlana.
This entire Arisa story was fake from the very beginning.
This entire "Early Retirement" program...
the bot production...
Doesn't matter.
I'll get the money and fly away.
But I won't tell you where.
Although you'll also have to move.
I think your dad will be interested
to know that his daughter ended up in the nuthouse again.
But what can we do, Svetlana, dear?
You've attacked your husband and tried to kill him.
You don't believe me? Look.
Really hurts, huh...
I'm glad you didn't hit the artery.
They're coming for you.
I'll go down to meet our dear guests.
Don't go anywhere.
Attention! Train 593, Minsk-Moscow, is arriving at platform one.
The train will stop for three minutes.
BETTER THAN US
