12 Monkeys (2015–2018): Season 2, Episode 9 - Hyena - full transcript

In 2016 Jennifer is taking matters into her own hands, going after the tall man when Cole splinters back to help her. Cassie and Ramses are both looking for revenge, looking for a place ...

- Previously,
on "12 Monkeys"...

- For you to create
time travel,

you had to lose Hannah,
or at least believe

that you did.

- Dad?

[gunfire]

- [groans]
- [gasps]

[gunshot]

- Even if you stop them,

I could just make it again.

I'm too dangerous alive.



- You need to get out of here.

Find a hole
and disappear into it.

- [groans]

- You're insane.

- Initiate splinter sequence.

- It works?
- Oh, yeah.

This is my life's work.

- When he was in my head,

I saw a place called "Titan."

You and I,
we can go there together.

We kill the Witness.

- What's the natural predator
of the monkey?

Hyena.

I'll take the fight
to them, Cassie.



We have to go monkey hunting.

¶ ¶

[cell phone ringing]

- Hi ya, Tall Man.

Get my note?

[jazzy music]

- Jennifer?

- I want you
to take this moment

and think back
to the day we met.

To the person I was then.

Crazy, wild-eyed
Jennifer Goines.

- ¶ Locked up like an animal ¶

[gunshot]

- Well, the good old days
are over.

I'm not a victim anymore.

I've got credit cards and the
Second Amendment on my side.

I'm free like a virus
in a preschool

and paying it forward
to all the other crazies.

I've got the keys to the zoo,

and now I'm springing
the cuckoo's nest.

[gunshot]

There's a new pack in town.

Predators with a purpose
and a thirst for vengeance,

because there's one thing
I've learned.

It's that nothing
frees you to be crazy

like learning
that you're not.

¶ ¶

My whole life,
people tried to use me,

break me, shape me,
mold me into not-me.

Daddy had that doctor
lock me away,

but my father wasn't
the only one

he was working for, was he?

Mm-mm.

You tried to lock me
in a cage too...

like an animal.

- ¶ The moonlight
shines bright ¶

- So I became one.

[giggling]

Guess which animal I became.

Guess.
Here's a hint.

Of all creatures
great and cuddly

which is the natural predator
of the monkey?

[chuckles]

The hyena.

These are the end times,
Tall Man,

but not for humanity.

I'm coming for you.

[dramatic music]

¶ ¶

[dramatic music]

[thunder booming]

- Scouting team took these.

Millburn Survivors Camp.

Just north of us,
about a week ago.

The same camp...

three hours ago.

¶ ¶

The child you see here
was a grown man

an hour before the storm hit.

- What happened to them?

- Time driven insane.

The anomalies tore
through the camp,

aging the survivors
hundreds of years one moment

and reversing it the next.

Chaos.

- Temporal storms
are resurging here...

here, and here.

They're closing in, destroying
everything in their path.

- But we stopped
the paradox in 1975.

It was getting better out there.

- Maybe that was a coincidence.

Well, none of you seem too sure

about how all this really works.
- Marcus--

- I'm inclined to agree
with Mr. Whitley.

- Julian, we know there was
another paradox,

one that we haven't stopped yet.

All the data points
to a major occurrence

between 1951 and 1973.

Just one more Primary
left to save,

and all this destruction
will end,

once and for all.

Mr. Cole?

- We need to find that Primary.

I'm gonna go ask the one person

we know who's dialed in
to all this.

¶ ¶

- Hey.

- Hey.

You're back.

How you doing?

- I just needed to get out
of here for a while.

You know?
You on the mend?

- Yeah, yeah, just another one
for the collection, you know?

Listen, I'm sorry I did--
I didn't get a chance

to talk to you about, uh...

what happened to Sam.

- Oh, that's all right.

When we went back to the '70s,

Kyle kept on bringing up
that the Witness

was from our time, right?

- Yeah, he said a lot
of crazy shit.

- He mentioned a place
called "Titan."

- "Titan"?
No, I never heard of it.

What is it?

- Cassie said
that when the Witness

was inside her head,

that she was also in his.

She thinks
that it's a place where...

he feels safe.

- Well, she never mentioned
that to me.

[gun clicks]

- You see Jennifer,

just ask her for me.

- Yeah.

¶ ¶

- I got to find the Witness.

I got to make him pay.

- I know.

¶ ¶

[thunder rumbling]

- Primaries,
plague,

paradoxes...

and the Witness.

- I didn't come here to see
you do a magic trick, Jennifer.

- This isn't magic.

This is a lesson.

Perception versus deception.

Cassie...

Ramse, Katarina...

her daughter, my daughter...

all of them distractions.

You keep watching the ball

when you should be
watching the hands.

- I'm beginning to think
you get off on this.

- There was a time when you
could have known for sure.

[moans]

- Ah!

The hell was that for?

- I told you to watch the hands.

- Screw this.

- Can't tell you where to find

the last Primary back in time.

I never knew,

but there's someone who does:

The Tall Man.

He leads the Army
of the 12 Monkeys now.

- How do I find him?

- You and me,

in 2016.

- You got 30 years on all of us.

You know how this ends,
don't you?

- A wise man once told me,

"There are many endings,

"but the right one

is the one you choose."

- One more thing.

- Titan.

- Yeah.

You know about it?

- I know that the search
for Titan

only leads to death.

Your friends...

their rage is blinding.

You need to see what they can't.

Stay the course.

Find the last Primary.

Stop the paradox.

Save the world, Otter Eyes.

[dramatic music]

¶ ¶

- She didn't know anything.

- The Daughters are nomads.

They've traveled
for miles and miles.

They got to know something.
- Nothing, man, I'm sorry.

Look, are you sure the Witness
didn't just put this

in your head to distract you?

This is the first time you
even mentioned it to me.

- Maybe I was afraid
you'd think I was crazy.

- That's not what
I'm talking about.

Now, look.

We got work to finish.

- Mr. Cole,
the window's closing.

- We will find him
together, okay?

Soon as we stop
the storms out there.

- I'm not waiting for that.

- You want to pay him back

for what he did to Sam and you?

I get that.
We will pay him back.

First, we need to focus on this.

- Yeah, focus
on your mission, right?

- [sighs]

Look, the Tall Man
is the only one

who knows how to stop
the final paradox.

I'm gonna find him.
I'm gonna make him talk.

- And then what?

He's the man who killed
your father.

I hope you get
your vengeance, Cole,

while we all wait here for ours.

¶ ¶

- Initiate splinter sequence.

[machine powering up]

¶ ¶

[dramatic accordion music]

¶ ¶

- All right, Hyenas.
Listen up.

We've traveled
a long ways together

and fought many battles

and won great victories.

Now we must fight again.
- Yeah!

- Back to business--

12-Monkey-killing business.

And business is what?

all: Booming!

- We've done well.

Now is not the time

to be resting on our laurels.

No, time for a re-up,
corner kids.

- Yeah!
- Yeah.

¶ ¶

- Tonight's mission--

[alarm blaring]

- They're here.

They found us.

[alarm blares]

¶ ¶

[both grunting]

[gun clicks]

¶ ¶

- Otter Eyes.

¶ ¶

- You been busy.

- 'Bout time, don't you think?

Take the fight to them
for a change, right?

- We got bigger problems
in 2044.

- Green to red?

- Bad to worse.

Time's broken.

Storms are eating up the future,

working their way back to now.

[grenade clatters]

¶ ¶

- Oh, shit.

- Peggy, I asked you to please

be careful with the grenades.

We got a discount for a reason.

- This is a new level of crazy.

- Crazy is as crazy does,

and this crazy
is getting shit done.

¶ ¶

- Him.

I need to talk to him.

He has the answers I need.

- Yeah, he's really
well-guarded.

I mean, he never leaves
the house without that guy.

- Jennifer.

He shouldn't be here.

- Relax, we're on the same team.

- It's okay, Vanessa.
He's family.

- Where did you find them again?

- You want to start
an antisocial organization,

you need antisocial
personalities, right?

Sprung 'em from a handful
of institutions.

I mean, sure,

a few of them are
borderline personality

but very dedicated.

Yeah, it's like the A-Team
with all Murdocks.

They're like me.

They're just misunderstood.

I freed them,

I feed them,
and now I lead them.

[solemn music]

We're like family.

- She's our mother.

¶ ¶

- Right.

¶ ¶

- Oh, Hannah.

¶ ¶

- I wanted to return this
to you.

- But it's yours.

- We don't have things.

Mother says it has
sentimental value...

for you.

- You were born at Lenox Hill
Hospital in New York City.

My father...

your grandfather,

he stitched your name in here.

He had never stitched a thing
in his life.

- What about my father?

What was he like?

- He had an overdeveloped sense
of self-preservation...

and ambition.

He built this machine,

and I made it work.

- You used science to...

change time.

To save my life.

I was told that when I was
a small child,

I was found
floating down a river

on the back of a golden swan

that I had tamed.

Now Mother says
I was brought to her

because of you--

a woman who used a machine

to cheat death.

- No, to save you.

My daughter.

And billions.

- I like the swan story better.

No one dies.

Science killed the world.

Now your machine
is going to finish off

what's left of us.

¶ ¶

- This is every record we have,

and no mention of Titan
anywhere.

Maybe Cole was right.

Maybe it's not real.

- You said you felt it.

- Yes.

- He's there.

We just got to keep looking.

- Ramse...

even if this place exists,

it could be anywhere
in the world,

and we don't have
maps or records

from after the plague.

What we need is something

that doesn't exist in 2044.

We need a database of some...

kind.

Hannah.

- What is a database?

- It's a place where information

is collected and stored.

- Like the Keeper?

- What's that?

- He's like your database.

He collects information.

The history of what happened
after the old ones died.

- Can you take us to him?

- He can be dangerous.

Mother has forbidden us
from trading with the Keeper,

but I could tell you
how to get there.

- What does he trade in?

- Truth.

¶ ¶

[gun clicking]

- You're not going alone.

- You concerned
for my safety now?

- No...

but I know that if you
figure out where the Witness is,

you're not coming back for me.

- Get out of here.

- You're not the only one
out for blood.

The Witness used me.

- The Keeper isn't the only
dangerous thing out there.

You're not immune,

and it's a long drive.

- Shotgun.

¶ ¶

- These Hyenas have burned
six of our labs.

Now we have nothing.

- That's him.
How did you get this?

- We left him a phone,
so he'd know

who's been screwing with him.

- He used it?

- No, but he kept it.
Didn't know we chipped it.

So anytime he's near,
we get stuff like this--listen.

- We cannot proceed
without Oliver Peters.

The virus was destroyed.

He's the only one
who can recreate it.

We need M5-10.

- Peters.

- AKA the guy
who created the virus

that kills us all.

We've been looking for him.

- Cassie told him
to get out of Dodge.

He's long gone by now.

- Or is he?

Peters was adopted.

My father helped track down
his birth parents.

They were dead,

but there was a brother.

After Peters disappeared,
so did his money,

and that long lost brother

goes from a studio in Flatbush

to six bedrooms in Sag Harbor.

I'm doing "Dateline" here.
Try and keep up.

- Jennifer, what's the point?

- Brother dearest
just got a new job

as the night janitor
at Hudson University Hospital.

[dramatic music]

¶ ¶

[suspenseful music]

¶ ¶

- Boo!
- Whoa.

Don't hurt me, please.

I'm just the janitor.

I'm just--I'm just the janitor.

- Humility.

That's a new look for you.

- No, not you.

Jennifer?

- Huh.

- What are you doing here?

With him?

- What part of "run away
and disappear"

didn't you understand?

- Where was I gonna go?

South America?
China?

They have people everywhere.

My brother, he...

he helped me.

- Helped you with what?

What are you working on here?

- It's a vaccine...

for the virus.

It's still theoretical,

but I needed to find a place
with the right equipment.

- Tall Man's looking for you.

- No, no.

- Yes.

- He got everything
he needed from me.

I--I gave him the virus.

- We destroyed it.

Put him behind schedule.

- Now, to get back on schedule,
he needs you.

[guns clicking]

- What the hell are you doing?

- Cole--Cole, he's the only one

who can engineer the virus.

- This is bigger than the virus.

We're talking about fixing time,

and Tall Man's the key
to all that.

We finally have something
that he wants.

We can use him.

- Use him for what?

- Bait.

¶ ¶

[thunder booms]

- Trying to kill yourself?

- What would happen if I died
here in 2044, anyway?

I'm the one who starts
all this, right?

When I leave the message
for Cole.

But if I never do, then
does any of this happen?

- Somebody else
would leave a message.

- Cole believes that time

needs us to save it,
which sounds...

- Sounds like something
Cole would say.

¶ ¶

What does that say?

- It's Latin.

It means "liar."

- What did Hannah
call this place?

- Domus Veritatis.

"House of Truth."

¶ ¶

[thunder booming]

[suspenseful music]

¶ ¶

[metal clangs]

[gunfire]

¶ ¶

- Drop your weapon.

- We just want
to ask you a question.

- Drop your weapon.

¶ ¶

[guns clatter]

¶ ¶

- Do you remember when Mother
would speak of the Red Forest?

Promise that we were important.

That the cycle would lead us

to a world without time,

without death.

- Your father gave his life
for it.

- Why hasn't it come?
The Witness--

- Works in mysterious
ways, dear.

- As do you.

I never expected you
to embrace technology this way.

- We've spent far too long
looking to the past for answers.

Your leadership proved that.

It's time to look to the future.

- In recent weeks,
the Markridge Group

has been under siege
after a series of explosions

took out seven
of their research facilities,

and now they're bracing
for yet another impact

as former Markridge employee,
Oliver Peters,

has made allegations
that the company is guilty--

- Peters has finally
come up for air.

- Peters, who had been
in hiding,

will hold a press conference
to expose what he claims--

- The Witness
didn't foresee this, did he?

Did he?

- Dealings with dangerous
subversive groups.

We are awaiting further--
- He lies.

Major" playing]

[grunting]

[choking]

[dramatic music]

¶ ¶

[gasping]

¶ ¶

Where are you going?

- To secure our future.

[whistling]

- We've got eyes.

- Now we just wait
for the Tall Man to show up.

- That's right,
and when he gets here,

everybody has to be cool, okay?

You can all take a crack at him
after I get what I need.

- You, you.

It's all about you.

Ever since you showed up.

- Whoa.

What are they doing
over there?

- Getting him ready
for his close-up.

- We're not actually
going through

with the press conference.

- But it was your idea.
You said--

- It was part of the trap,
all right?

I never said it was a good idea
to let people know

the apocalypse is coming.

- Don't worry, Cole.
Be happy.

- What is wrong with you?

All of you?

What--what, you want to tell
the world the truth?

That there's no hope?
That they're all gonna die?

I've seen what happens

when people think
their days are numbered.

It's ugly.

We're not speeding that up.

- People need to know the truth.
- No.

They don't.

I know what happens.

We turn on each other.

We become animals.

Real ones, not like
you're pretending to be.

- Okay, Cole?

I get that you're afraid.

We are entering
uncharted territory,

but old me told you
to come here, right?

- Yeah, so?

- What do you think it took
to face the Monkeys head on?

Fearlessness, right?

Fearlessness that comes
from knowing

that everything
is gonna be okay.

Old me is proof that I live
to fight another day.

- What about everybody else?

Hmm?

Who's gonna save them

if your little crew here
is wrong?

- We don't take orders from you.

[dramatic music]

- [breathing heavily]

Vanessa.

- This was a sisterhood.

- Vanessa.

- It's been corrupted.

- [breathing heavily]

Don't point the gun
at my friend!

¶ ¶

[machine clicks, powers on]

[gun clicks]

[electricity crackling]

- [groans]

[guns clicking]

¶ ¶

- Clear.

¶ ¶

- [breathing heavily]

¶ ¶

You liberated us, Jennifer.

Opened our eyes

to a threat
we didn't know existed.

Now we have to open
everyone else's eyes.

¶ ¶

When the Tall Man comes,

the Tall Man dies.

Then we tell the world
the truth.

¶ ¶

We'll take it from here.

¶ ¶

[Chopin's "Nocturne in E-flat
Major" playing]

¶ ¶

[chair creaking]

- [tsk-tsking]

¶ ¶

- You're the Keeper?

- I am.

As the world was dying,
they went for the guns.

Then the grocery stores
and so on.

Nobody came for the books.
Nobody cared.

Until the winter, of course...

when the fires needed feeding.

- So you saved them.

- Mankind did for its words

what it could not do for itself.

Digital immortality.

I walked into the headquarters

of Amazon, the Pentagon,

and collected those precious
ones and zeroes.

Protected history.

Now I record the events
of the rebirth.

¶ ¶

My terms are simple.

I shall not lie
and neither shall you.

The machine will confirm
your honesty.

- We're looking
for records of a city.

I think.

Called "Titan."

- Jesus, Cassie.

- Why do you hate this woman?

And she, you?

- What are you talking about?

[machine beeps]

[electricity sizzling]

[grunts]

- People died because of liars.

"There's no need to panic."

"We're working on a cure."

"Quarantine zones will save us."

Their lies...

[computer beeping]

Doomed us.

- I hate him
because he's selfish.

Because he let countless people
die to save...

one.

[machine beeping]

- Lie.

What is the real reason?

[dramatic music]

¶ ¶

- I hate him...

because someone I cared about...

someone I sacrificed
everything for...

chose him over me.

[machine beeping]

- And you?

¶ ¶

- Same.

[machine beeping]

¶ ¶

- Truth.

¶ ¶

[indistinct conversation]

[suspenseful music]

¶ ¶

- He's here, headed upstairs
to the maintenance floor.

He's in the elevator.

- Hyenas, sixth floor.

- Keep an eye on them.

Let's move.

¶ ¶

- I can't believe how many times

I defended you.

Yeah, you really are crazy.

You recruit all these lunatics,
you give 'em weapons,

and then you lose
complete control over 'em.

It's unbelievable.

- You know the otter is a branch
of the weasel family?

- No, I didn't know that,
Jennifer.

- Sad, soulful eyes.

Tiny, backstabbing hands.

- Is that what the voices
in your head tell you?

- I didn't try to control
my Hyenas, control freak.

- Control? You can't
control them, Jennifer,

because they're just
as insane as you are.

- I told you already.
We're like family.

[blow lands]

- He's still in the elevator.

Let's take the stairs.

Oh, about what I said
over there--

- Yeah, yeah, let's just go
get the Tall Man.

We can hug it out later.

¶ ¶

- [grunts]

¶ ¶

[elevator dings]

¶ ¶

[door rattles]

¶ ¶

- [whispering]
Where is he?

Helen, the Tall Man
is a no-show.

Can you spot him
on the monitors?

- Maybe he went down.

¶ ¶

- Helen?

¶ ¶

- Oh, I see.

A trap.

James, did you lure me here
just to shoot me?

- No, asshole.

I'm here to save you.

¶ ¶

[somber piano music]

¶ ¶

- [grunts]

¶ ¶

[grunts]

¶ ¶

[grunts]

[groans]

[breathing heavily]

You killed my father.

- You killed some fathers,

starting with hers.

She seems to have
gotten over it.

Oh, it's okay.

Rest your hands.

I'm not going anywhere.

- The Messengers...

went back in time

to paradox Primaries.

We know about Tommy.

We know about Kyle.

There's one more we don't know.

You're gonna tell me
who that is.

- Messenger business was not
left up to me.

Mothering is more
in Olivia's wheelhouse.

[slow ominous music]

¶ ¶

[tools jangling]

¶ ¶

[yells]

[groaning]

¶ ¶

- Plan B.

We still got a press conference.

- Maybe this isn't
such a good idea.

- You're the reason
the world dies, Peters.

¶ ¶

Least you could do
is warn them about it.

[suspenseful music]

¶ ¶

- Paradoxes in the past.

1944, 1975.

When's the last one?

[dramatic music]

- [screaming]

- When?

¶ ¶

- '57.

1957.

Upstate New York.

A paradox so powerful,

it destroys the fabric of time--

at least locally--

enough to maintain erosion
forever.

The birth of the Red Forest.

Try to stop it,
but you can't,

'cause it's already happened.

It's like a memory of tomorrow.

¶ ¶

What--what time--
what time is it?

'Cause at 8:00, Oliver Peters
was going to divulge information

very damaging to--to me,
to me and my people.

¶ ¶

- Good evening.

My name is Oliver Peters,

and I'm here to tell the truth
about the Markridge Group

and its role in the development
of biological weapons

for a ruthless and secretive
fringe organization.

[suspenseful music]

- We haven't needed Peters
for some time.

We already have M5-10 under
lock and key.

- Distractions.

You keep watching the ball

when you should be
watching the hands.

¶ ¶

- Where's your coat?

- You and your Hyenas
were a nuisance,

but a nuisance that could
become a threat.

Hyenas are the natural predator
of a monkey.

What's the natural predator
of the hyena?

You see, the natural predator
of a hyena is man.

[beeping]
- We've got a situation.

We need to clear the building.
- Evolution, Jennifer.

- I took part in research

related to extremely dangerous
bioengineering--

what's happening?

- Vanessa.

Get out of there.
It's a trap.

- I can't hear you.

- Get out!
Get out now!

- Get out!

[screaming]

[all speaking at once]

[beeping]

[explosion]

[sustained beep]

- Uh, we're not sure
what's happened.

Uh, there may have been--

there's been an explosion.

I've been told that there has
been some sort of explosion.

This is just coming in.

This is breaking news.

- That was a hospital.

- Yeah, I've evolved, myself.

Learned so many things.

[cell phone ringing]

You know, I know
that a cell phone

can be used
to eavesdrop on someone,

but do you know that also
they--they can be used

to track someone's location?

[metal rattling]

[explosion]

[gunshots]

[gunshots]

[gunshots]

[shelves clattering]

¶ ¶

[gun clicks]

¶ ¶

[machine beeping]

- What's that?

- It's a CIA
intelligence report,

part of the classified archives.

Afraid I couldn't collect anyone
to declassify it,

but it is what you came for.

The only record
with even a mention

of a place called "Titan."

- Thank you.

- You know, whatever battle

you're about to walk into
together...

it won't be your hatred for each
other that will divide you.

It will be the lies you tell
to camouflage it.

¶ ¶

- East Germany, 1961,

and a doctor named Kirschner.

Not a lot to go on.

- Got a name, place,
and the date...

put 'em together.

- And we've got a new mission.

- There ain't no "we," lady.

- The only one who wants
the Witness dead as much as you

is me.

- Here.

I don't need another partner
with a death wish.

[glasses clinking]

[somber music]

¶ ¶

- Hey.

I wasn't sure what you wanted
to do with this little guy.

¶ ¶

- Terry.

I can't take care of him.

I can't take care of anything.

- Listen,

I know how you feel.

Okay?

This is the price
of taking people on.

¶ ¶

- But I didn't pay it.

They didn't deserve to die.

I made them.

The Hyenas...

They were my fault.

And all the people
in the hospital.

[sobs]

Hundreds of people.

Cole, is this what I become
in the future?

A woman who's failed everyone?

- No.

- Then tell me what happens.

How does this end?

[sobs]

¶ ¶

- There are many endings.

- Which is the right one?

The right one...

[together]
Is the one that you'll choose.

¶ ¶

[electricity crackling]

- Time to go.

- See you soon.

- [sobs]

[knocking at door]

¶ ¶

Wow, you weren't kidding.

- Jennifer.

¶ ¶

- You must be Hannah.

[dramatic music]

¶ ¶

If you'll excuse me.

- Julian.

Jul...

¶ ¶

- Should I not be here?

- For many years, Dr. Adler
and I shared a common bond:

the loss of a child.

And now that's changed.

- I didn't mean
to offend you earlier.

Mother says most people are not
accustomed to directness.

I don't really understand
why not, but--

- Hannah, there's so much that
we don't know about each other.

I'd rather not waste
any more time with pretty lies.

[laughs]

I just realized...

"Hannah" might not be the name
that Jennifer calls you.

- She's always called me "Zeit."

- "Zeit"?

That's German.
You know what that means?

It means "time."

- Mother is not without
her sense of humor.

- Oh...

you asked me about your father.

¶ ¶

I think he looks like you.

He was quite a brilliant man.

He only ever gave me two things:

this machine and you.

But you were the only thing
I ever loved him for.

- Thank you.

If you like...

you may call me "Hannah."

¶ ¶

- Another brilliant mind lost.

I know what that's like,

'cause I could have been the man

that science mistook
for a magician.

Me, and Tesla, and Ben Franklin
and his kite, you know?

But nope.
'Cause they pull your funding.

They find one dead body
in your facility, and--poof.

They mothball the future,

and then they discredit you.

And I'm not dead,
but I might as well be.

¶ ¶

Thanks.

- Do you believe
in resurrection, doctor?

- Man, I'm afraid I've become
a--a realist in my failed state.

Enough to know that this idea
that you're talking about

is impossible.

- How so?

- The technology
doesn't exist, man.

It would take--
I don't know--

shit, decades...

unless you, you know--

regardless, let me
ask you something.

Even if I could
build this for you,

why would you want it?

- Insurance.

- [scoffs]
Against what?

- The future.

- [laughs]

¶ ¶

This project is massive.

- It is.

¶ ¶

That's why
we're calling it "Titan."
