Upload (2020–…): Season 2, Episode 4 - Family Day - full transcript
Hey.
[chuckles]
Guys, be honest,
is it too early to decide where
we're gonna eat after this?
[computer voice] Arrived
at destination.
Please exit the vehicle.
[Ivan] What about ramen?
You guys like shawarma,
or is it too spicy?
- Shut up.
- Okay.
[keypad beeps]
[door shuts]
[Matteo sighs]
All right.
Come on.
- [Nora] What are they?
- [Ivan] Clones.
They're bodies of people
who uploaded.
It's the same thing.
They have to regrow their heads
from stem cells, see?
They're empty until someone
downloads back in.
High-tech shit.
Why would anyone
risk downloading?
I mean, didn't they see
that guy blow up?
It's the master plan
of the one percent.
Spend your life
pillaging the earth, right?
And just when all that karma
catches up with you, upload.
Chill out in Lakeview
for a few decades,
while the scientists
clean up your mess, and then
download, do it all over again
for the rest of time.
So...
[alarm blaring]
I'll get these ones.
You get those ones.
Well, you can't always
tell who they are.
They're assholes.
That's all you need to know.
Okay, s-some of them
might be good guys.
You know, you can't just
- ruin their chance to...
- [Matteo] Be parasites
with private jets
who think planting a tree
in the Amazon
cancels out your crimes?
Oh, savage! [laughs]
Bath time's over, bitches.
[laughs]
[Ivan] Fuck!
Come on, get up. Get up.
Guys, it's booby-trapped.
- Jesus... Let's go.
- Watch out.
In a few minutes,
this room's gonna smell worse
than Ivan's apartment.
Let's go, let's go.
[alarm continues blaring]
[alarm stops]
I'm sorry, Mr...
Jake Paul?

I can't see jack squat.
Where are my goggle thingies?
God,
millennials are so lame.
[AI guy] It's Family Day,
and the new prototypes are here.
Okay, looks good. Just try
not to drop any more of them.
I said I was sorry.
- Congratulations.
- Oh...
Don't be shy.
Baby's first month is free

[speaks gibberish]
- I want one.
- No, no.
[chuckles] You're just
missing your family.
I'm sorry they're not coming.
Maybe your dad just felt guilty
about the whole murdering me
thing, you know?
Maybe. [chuckles]
Yeah, whatevs.
Meet your new brother.
- What should we call him?
- Mom.
This is so weird.
You can hang
with my family today.
- Yeah?
- Sure.
Thanks, babe.
I can't wait to see them.
Everybody here's so old.
Oh, yeah. There's so much
great stuff to do,
they're gonna have the best day.
Your niece knows
how to use a gun, right?
Hmm?
- Oh, who's a baby?
- Uncle Nathan.
- Oh, hey.
- Hey.
- Oh, Nevaeh. Mom.
- Hi.
- I missed you guys so much.
- Hi.
Oh, my g... Look at you.
- [chuckles]
- You're so tall.
- Really?
- Yeah.
Mom!
[chuckles] It's okay
if I call you that, right?
Let's hug.
- Oh.
- Sorry for your loss, Ingrid.
Your weird and preventable loss.
You uploaded for a man
you're not even married to.
[chuckles]
Sure. You can call me Mom.
Thanks, Mom.
I'm in a better place.
You look really pretty.
That's because I just had
my tongue lengthened.
Thank you so much for noticing.
- Oh.
- Okay.
Maybe roll that thing back up.
Let's, uh,
- get this started, all right?
- Yeah. Woo-hoo! [laughs]
Family Day is huge,
so make sure that your angels
get superstar results.
Got it.
How do I do that exactly?
You yell at them
with simple words
because they're stupid cows,
and cows respond well
to a good kicking.
Thanks.
Moo.
Is it dangerous?
Uh, no.
Uh, just looks like someone
accidentally put some plant code
into these chairs, and now
they're growing.
You've grown, too, Dylan,
since last time I saw you.
Still a kid, just 20% taller.
I told you, the full adult
update was too expensive.
Whose dick do I have to suck
to get some chest hair
around here?
Dylan.
Although we were hoping
- for a...
- Like a...
a bug finder reward thing.
Sorry, we don't do that,
but I've heard
the archery game's paying out
twice as many credits
as it should.
I'm supposed to fix it, but...
it might take me a while.
Fuck yeah.
Thank you. You're an angel.
Actually,
I'm Redesign and
a maintenance engineer now.
It's a promotion.
- Ready?
- [Nevaeh] Yup.
Okay.
- [Nevaeh] What side?
- Left side, left side,
left side, left side. Now.
[whoops]
- [laughs]
- [Nathan] Too easy.
To your left.
- Okay. Left, left.
- [Viv] Left, way left.
- Other left. Ingrid, Ingrid.
- Left, left, left, left, left.
- [Viv] Look, it's past you.
- What?
- [Viv] For God's sakes.
- Mom!
Did I get it?
[chuckles]
Other left, other left.
Ingrid, it's just gone by you.
Oh, for God's sakes.
- Ingrid. Oh, my God.
- [Ingrid screams]
[laughs] You're so good
at everything.
Yeah.
[Ingrid] I thought
it was your left.
[Viv] You said...
I said your left.
Oh, hey, um, I'll be right back.
Just make sure they don't
kill each other, okay?
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Bye.
- Tinsley!
Shit.
Tins.
Where you off to
in those sweet khakis?
Nathan, it's-it's me. Nora.
That's not funny, Tinsley.
I'm not joking. It's me.
I'm back.
[scoffs]
How do I know it's really you?
I think you can tell.
Wow. Um...
I can't believe I'm looking
at you, and it's actually...
it's actually you.
[sighs]
I never thought I'd hear
from you again, Nora.
Yeah. I can tell.
God, lower.
Yeah. Ingrid, um...
got me out of 2Gig, and now...
we're, um...
Can we go somewhere
and talk? It's...
It's none of my business.
You don't have to explain.
- I wanted to tell you...
- But you didn't,
and it's all good.
I'm with someone, too.
Oh. That...
That's great.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
He's-he's cool.
Mm.
He's so, so cool.
And he's
alive, so that's...
convenient.
The best. Yeah. Ingrid...
uh, she...
gave up everything
and uploaded for me,
so that is...
Well, that was, um...
surprising.
- That's great.
- Yeah.
I mean, uh, well,
sorry for your loss.
That's intense.
Well, she's an intense lady.
You know, but, uh,
it's all good,
brother. [chuckles]
That was weird.
I don't know what that was.
- It was so weird.
- I know.
Man, you used to be cool.
[laughing] What happened
to you, man?
[laughs]
Nora, are you okay?
Look, I really got
to get back to work.
Nathan?
Where's Nathan? Oh.
[chuckles] He's talking
to his little friend.
Nancy, isn't it?
Hi. Lovely to see you again.
What a fun outfit.
I-I work in I.T. now.
I.T.?
No shit, a promotion?
That's awesome.
Well, don't get too excited.
They'll probably fire me soon.
No, they won't.
Hurry up, Nathan.
We have to take Mom
to the memory parlor.
[sighs]
See you later, brother.
[phone chimes]
Hey. I have a surprise for you.
Meet me by the Grey Zone
at noon.
Uh-oh, high noon.
We gonna have
a shoot-out, cowboy?
That's right, Paco. Yeah.
Then we'll go to
the saloon, you know,
spit into a metal thing...
Oh, not big on westerns, huh?
Uh, no.
I, uh, believe I deserve points
for trying, though.
See you at noon, okay?
Some strange hack is happening
at the tennis courts.
Well, fix it.
Oh, I don't know how.
I'll poke some buttons, I guess.
[groans]
I will handle it myself, then.
[grunting]
- [grunts] God...
- [bell dings]
Another point for them.
Come on, man.
They're set to Pong 1977.
Their brains are, like,
20 kilobytes.
What is going on here?
I didn't call for you.
We're good.
Uh, take five, Luke.
Good morning, beautiful.
Are you the Prefera
I've heard so much about?
No, I'm Luke's angel.
God, this really is heaven.
Cute, but I've heard it before.
This is Jesse, one of my
best buds from the army.
Ma'am, Luke knew I've
always dreamed of upload,
so he used his
Family Day pass on me.
This place is amazing.
We're gonna eat
a bathtub of tiramisu
after our "teanis" match.
Tennis.
No. Teanis. New game.
Only way to score points is to
hit the other guy in the crotch.
Well, that's stupid.
You're the only one
that can get hurt.
Jesse's balls are safe
in the real world.
Yeah, it makes me feel alive.
You want to play a round, huh?
You can be on Jesse's team.
Yeah... I'm a boss now.
I don't have time
to mess around with you.
Oh, well, if you
were a real boss,
you could decide
how to spend your day.
Well, maybe a round or two.
- [grunts]
- [bell dings]
Oh, you fucker. It's on.
Let's go, Jesse.
[laughs]
Oh, so cute.
Did you know Fendi
designed the spit-up rags
and the spit-up?
These digital babies
creep me out.
Well, I think they're
a very interesting invention.
It's an opportunity for uploads
to experience
the joys of parenthood.
Right, Nathan?
Uh, well, I guess
if you screw them up,
it doesn't really matter, right?
Well, we wouldn't screw them up.
But they're not
real babies, Ingrid.
I know that, Viv.
I know that.
[groans]
You're supposed to follow her.
Am I?
Yeah. If you see me
walking like that,
- I am big mad.
- [laughs]
Oh, no. We don't want
Big Mad Neveah.
- [squeals]
- Don't want Big Mad Neveah.
Imagine me a dad. I can barely
take care of myself.
Everybody run.
It's Big Mad Neveah!
[grunt]
- [bell dings]
- Nice shot.
No. No, no, no, no, no.
Foot fault.
- Second serve.
- Fine.
- [bell dings]
- Whoa!
- [groans]
- Nice shot there.
Goddamn it.
I am furious at Nathan.
Hm, I notice you often express
your feelings as anger,
but maybe you're really lonely
and sad.
Fuck you, Helen.
I have a right to be pissed off.
I am so clearly committed
to this relationship,
but Nathan won't even consider
a digital baby.
Ingrid Kannerman
wants to be a mom.
[laughter]
Let's look closely at the root
of this baby desire.
Perhaps you want something
of your own
because you worry
that you're unlovable.
Why do you always think
I'm worried I'm unlovable?
I am so much
more lovable than...
than you will ever be.
I mean,
what I really worry about
is how bad
of a therapist you are.
[Nevaeh] And so then
Shona told Brody
she's sick of him
being rude to her,
and that he's not as funny
as he thinks he is.
Ooh, go off, Shona.
I'm so proud of that girl.
She really learned
to love herself.
Hey, that's Ingrid's dad.
Right?
Wait, what?
Are you sure it was him?
Yeah, I remember him
from my sleepover dinner party.
What is he doing here?
I'm sure there's some
reasonable explanation.
He's here to surprise Ingrid?
- No chance.
- The grandmother?
Maybe. Y-You guys head
to the memory parlor.
- I'll meet you there, okay?
- Okay.
- I'll see you in a minute.
- Nevaeh.
So, the bottle auto-refills
after every use.
You can pay as you go...
Hey, Nathan. It's Tinsley.
- Oh, hey.
- Yeah.
I got my own avatar,
based on me.
Look at you. Great.
Uh, oh, uh...
Sorry. Excuse me.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Is there somewhere we can go
and talk real quick, in private?
{an8}Kannerman is here, in Lakeview.
{an8}Well, it's Family Day.
{an8}That family hates each other.
{an8}What if he's using it as a cover
to meet with someone else?
{an8}- You could always ask Ingrid.
- I-I did, okay?
{an8}She doesn't know anything
about who's behind my murder.
- I think it might be the Ludds.
- That's impossible.
Why? I mean,
th-they attacked Freeyond.
They-they are against
digital afterlife.
What if they used Kannerman to
get my code, then had me killed?
Look, I'm telling you,
it's not the Ludds.
- How can you be so sure?
- Because... [sighs]
The guy I'm dating,
Matteo, he's a Ludd.
What? Nora, how could you
be so naive?
The Ludds are crazy.
The Ludds are not crazy.
They sacrifice a lot
for what they believe in.
You know, maybe that's
just not something
you can relate to anymore.
I'm just trying
to protect you...
- Well, I'm good.
- From...
Really.
I trust Matteo.
- Okay.
- He's never lied to me.
Look, I got to go.
[sighs]
If I find out anything
about Kannerman, I'll text you.
- Morning.
- Morning.
[grunts]
Hi.
It's me. It worked.
- Hey, nice to see you.
- Oh.
I-I'm sorry.
I-I-I just, I can't kiss
this face. It's just...
- Oh, God. Yeah. Blegh. Gross.
- ...wrong.
Totally get it.
So, what's my big surprise?
Yes.
- This.
- Thank you so much.
Oh, it's a free diaper bag.
No, close. It's a hyperworm.
We are going to fuck up
Family Day.
All you need to do is
leave it in the lobby,
near the concierge desk.
Matteo, what about
all the people?
Horizen's the enemy,
not... not them.
They're safe at home
in VR suits. You know that.
Okay, not the uploads.
It's debatable,
you consider them people.
This is going to make
a big splash.
The AI system will be infected
with our propaganda message.
It's all worked out.
Right.
- Look, I know, but...
- L... Look.
If you want to pursue justice,
sometimes
you have to make a few
rich people uncomfortable, okay?
Ow. You're gonna... Ah!
What-what is...
Hang on.
Come on.
In my own house? Get off him.
I want to clean him up.
He's a real man.
I'm not encouraging her...
It. I'm not encouraging...
You know, your dad
and Pastor Rob
don't think you can do this.
Your dad thinks
you're too kindhearted,
and Pastor Rob
thinks you're soft.
Okay, I'm not soft.
I know. I know you're committed
to changing things.
Well, this is how you do it.
[scoffs] Okay?
You're the only one
here who could pull this off.
I know you won't disappoint us
'cause I believe in you, Nora.
[sighs]
[sighs]
[overlapping chatter]
Oh, give her to me.
Oh. Oopsy-doops. Sorry,
Miss Kannerman, I didn't...
[mocking] "I'm sorry,
Miss Kannerman,
I didn't see you there."
Just watch where I'm going.
Okay?
Stop staring at me,
you useless, pre-programmed
sack of shit.
Oh... Hey.
You will become human
before that woman ever does.
[overlapping chatter]
[baby cooing]
And there,
dangling from the door handle,
was a bloody hook!
- [roars]
- [screams]
[laughs] "Attack
of the Hook Man."
Okay, I totally forgot
about this.
I can't believe
I thought it was okay
to tell a six-year-old
that story.
What a dummy.
Why? I liked it.
You were terrified.
- No way.
- Mom?
Oh, your mother
was furious with us.
You slept with the lights on
for an entire week.
No, no, that does not
sound like me.

You know, Luke was
my commanding officer,
and he was exceptional.
- What?
- Iran
was the first war
with autonomous drones,
so it was intense,
but Luke never
showed the stress.
He kept morale high
when things were rough.
Always figured out ways
to make us smile or help us out.
That's what got
a lot of us home.
I'm having a hard time
processing this.
We're talking
about the same Luke?
Thanks for today.
It was a pleasure.

- Shut up.
I don't need
a running commentary.
Ma'am?
[sighs]
I try so hard,
and nothing works.
Yeah,
I'm spectacularly beautiful;
Nathan doesn't seem to care.
He's... he's only in love
with me when I'm not me,
and I try to be good to his mom,
but she hates me,
and he takes her side, and...
I think that we're meant
to be together for eternity,
but it is taking forever
to get him there.
I'm...
I'm lovable, right?
Yes.

I'm exhausted.
Yeah, I bet.
You know, um,
I was thinking,
nothing's certain in this life,

maybe you aren't crazy
for wanting a digital baby.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Aw, babe.

You know, I think we would make

Oh, my g... Look at you.
- [chuckles]
- You're so tall.
- Really?
- Yeah.
Mom!
[chuckles] It's okay
if I call you that, right?
Let's hug.
- Oh.
- Sorry for your loss, Ingrid.
Your weird and preventable loss.
You uploaded for a man
you're not even married to.
[chuckles]
Sure. You can call me Mom.
Thanks, Mom.
I'm in a better place.
You look really pretty.
That's because I just had
my tongue lengthened.
Thank you so much for noticing.
- Oh.
- Okay.
Maybe roll that thing back up.
Let's, uh,
- get this started, all right?
- Yeah. Woo-hoo! [laughs]
Family Day is huge,
so make sure that your angels
get superstar results.
Got it.
How do I do that exactly?
You yell at them
with simple words
because they're stupid cows,
and cows respond well
to a good kicking.
Thanks.
Moo.
Is it dangerous?
Uh, no.
Uh, just looks like someone
accidentally put some plant code
into these chairs, and now
they're growing.
You've grown, too, Dylan,
since last time I saw you.
Still a kid, just 20% taller.
I told you, the full adult
update was too expensive.
Whose dick do I have to suck
to get some chest hair
around here?
Dylan.
Although we were hoping
- for a...
- Like a...
a bug finder reward thing.
Sorry, we don't do that,
but I've heard
the archery game's paying out
twice as many credits
as it should.
I'm supposed to fix it, but...
it might take me a while.
Fuck yeah.
Thank you. You're an angel.
Actually,
I'm Redesign and
a maintenance engineer now.
It's a promotion.
- Ready?
- [Nevaeh] Yup.
Okay.
- [Nevaeh] What side?
- Left side, left side,
left side, left side. Now.
[whoops]
- [laughs]
- [Nathan] Too easy.
To your left.
- Okay. Left, left.
- [Viv] Left, way left.
- Other left. Ingrid, Ingrid.
- Left, left, left, left, left.
- [Viv] Look, it's past you.
- What?
- [Viv] For God's sakes.
- Mom!
Did I get it?
[chuckles]
Other left, other left.
Ingrid, it's just gone by you.
Oh, for God's sakes.
- Ingrid. Oh, my God.
- [Ingrid screams]
[laughs] You're so good
at everything.
Yeah.
[Ingrid] I thought
it was your left.
[Viv] You said...
I said your left.
Oh, hey, um, I'll be right back.
Just make sure they don't
kill each other, okay?
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Bye.
- Tinsley!
Shit.
Tins.
Where you off to
in those sweet khakis?
Nathan, it's-it's me. Nora.
That's not funny, Tinsley.
I'm not joking. It's me.
I'm back.
[scoffs]
How do I know it's really you?
I think you can tell.
Wow. Um...
I can't believe I'm looking
at you, and it's actually...
it's actually you.
[sighs]
I never thought I'd hear
from you again, Nora.
Yeah. I can tell.
God, lower.
Yeah. Ingrid, um...
got me out of 2Gig, and now...
we're, um...
Can we go somewhere
and talk? It's...
It's none of my business.
You don't have to explain.
- I wanted to tell you...
- But you didn't,
and it's all good.
I'm with someone, too.
Oh. That...
That's great.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
He's-he's cool.
Mm.
He's so, so cool.
And he's
alive, so that's...
convenient.
The best. Yeah. Ingrid...
uh, she...
gave up everything
and uploaded for me,
so that is...
Well, that was, um...
surprising.
- That's great.
- Yeah.
I mean, uh, well,
sorry for your loss.
That's intense.
Well, she's an intense lady.
You know, but, uh,
it's all good,
brother. [chuckles]
That was weird.
I don't know what that was.
- It was so weird.
- I know.
Man, you used to be cool.
[laughing] What happened
to you, man?
[laughs]
Nora, are you okay?
Look, I really got
to get back to work.
Nathan?
Where's Nathan? Oh.
[chuckles] He's talking
to his little friend.
Nancy, isn't it?
Hi. Lovely to see you again.
What a fun outfit.
I-I work in I.T. now.
I.T.?
No shit, a promotion?
That's awesome.
Well, don't get too excited.
They'll probably fire me soon.
No, they won't.
Hurry up, Nathan.
We have to take Mom
to the memory parlor.
[sighs]
See you later, brother.
[phone chimes]
Hey. I have a surprise for you.
Meet me by the Grey Zone
at noon.
Uh-oh, high noon.
We gonna have
a shoot-out, cowboy?
That's right, Paco. Yeah.
Then we'll go to
the saloon, you know,
spit into a metal thing...
Oh, not big on westerns, huh?
Uh, no.
I, uh, believe I deserve points
for trying, though.
See you at noon, okay?
Some strange hack is happening
at the tennis courts.
Well, fix it.
Oh, I don't know how.
I'll poke some buttons, I guess.
[groans]
I will handle it myself, then.
[grunting]
- [grunts] God...
- [bell dings]
Another point for them.
Come on, man.
They're set to Pong 1977.
Their brains are, like,
20 kilobytes.
What is going on here?
I didn't call for you.
We're good.
Uh, take five, Luke.
Good morning, beautiful.
Are you the Prefera
I've heard so much about?
No, I'm Luke's angel.
God, this really is heaven.
Cute, but I've heard it before.
This is Jesse, one of my
best buds from the army.
Ma'am, Luke knew I've
always dreamed of upload,
so he used his
Family Day pass on me.
This place is amazing.
We're gonna eat
a bathtub of tiramisu
after our "teanis" match.
Tennis.
No. Teanis. New game.
Only way to score points is to
hit the other guy in the crotch.
Well, that's stupid.
You're the only one
that can get hurt.
Jesse's balls are safe
in the real world.
Yeah, it makes me feel alive.
You want to play a round, huh?
You can be on Jesse's team.
Yeah... I'm a boss now.
I don't have time
to mess around with you.
Oh, well, if you
were a real boss,
you could decide
how to spend your day.
Well, maybe a round or two.
- [grunts]
- [bell dings]
Oh, you fucker. It's on.
Let's go, Jesse.
[laughs]
Oh, so cute.
Did you know Fendi
designed the spit-up rags
and the spit-up?
These digital babies
creep me out.
Well, I think they're
a very interesting invention.
It's an opportunity for uploads
to experience
the joys of parenthood.
Right, Nathan?
Uh, well, I guess
if you screw them up,
it doesn't really matter, right?
Well, we wouldn't screw them up.
But they're not
real babies, Ingrid.
I know that, Viv.
I know that.
[groans]
You're supposed to follow her.
Am I?
Yeah. If you see me
walking like that,
- I am big mad.
- [laughs]
Oh, no. We don't want
Big Mad Neveah.
- [squeals]
- Don't want Big Mad Neveah.
Imagine me a dad. I can barely
take care of myself.
Everybody run.
It's Big Mad Neveah!
[grunt]
- [bell dings]
- Nice shot.
No. No, no, no, no, no.
Foot fault.
- Second serve.
- Fine.
- [bell dings]
- Whoa!
- [groans]
- Nice shot there.
Goddamn it.
I am furious at Nathan.
Hm, I notice you often express
your feelings as anger,
but maybe you're really lonely
and sad.
Fuck you, Helen.
I have a right to be pissed off.
I am so clearly committed
to this relationship,
but Nathan won't even consider
a digital baby.
Ingrid Kannerman
wants to be a mom.
[laughter]
Let's look closely at the root
of this baby desire.
Perhaps you want something
of your own
because you worry
that you're unlovable.
Why do you always think
I'm worried I'm unlovable?
I am so much
more lovable than...
than you will ever be.
I mean,
what I really worry about
is how bad
of a therapist you are.
[Nevaeh] And so then
Shona told Brody
she's sick of him
being rude to her,
and that he's not as funny
as he thinks he is.
Ooh, go off, Shona.
I'm so proud of that girl.
She really learned
to love herself.
Hey, that's Ingrid's dad.
Right?
Wait, what?
Are you sure it was him?
Yeah, I remember him
from my sleepover dinner party.
What is he doing here?
I'm sure there's some
reasonable explanation.
He's here to surprise Ingrid?
- No chance.
- The grandmother?
Maybe. Y-You guys head
to the memory parlor.
- I'll meet you there, okay?
- Okay.
- I'll see you in a minute.
- Nevaeh.
So, the bottle auto-refills
after every use.
You can pay as you go...
Hey, Nathan. It's Tinsley.
- Oh, hey.
- Yeah.
I got my own avatar,
based on me.
Look at you. Great.
Uh, oh, uh...
Sorry. Excuse me.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Is there somewhere we can go
and talk real quick, in private?
{an8}Kannerman is here, in Lakeview.
{an8}Well, it's Family Day.
{an8}That family hates each other.
{an8}What if he's using it as a cover
to meet with someone else?
{an8}- You could always ask Ingrid.
- I-I did, okay?
{an8}She doesn't know anything
about who's behind my murder.
- I think it might be the Ludds.
- That's impossible.
Why? I mean,
th-they attacked Freeyond.
They-they are against
digital afterlife.
What if they used Kannerman to
get my code, then had me killed?
Look, I'm telling you,
it's not the Ludds.
- How can you be so sure?
- Because... [sighs]
The guy I'm dating,
Matteo, he's a Ludd.
What? Nora, how could you
be so naive?
The Ludds are crazy.
The Ludds are not crazy.
They sacrifice a lot
for what they believe in.
You know, maybe that's
just not something
you can relate to anymore.
I'm just trying
to protect you...
- Well, I'm good.
- From...
Really.
I trust Matteo.
- Okay.
- He's never lied to me.
Look, I got to go.
[sighs]
If I find out anything
about Kannerman, I'll text you.
- Morning.
- Morning.
[grunts]
Hi.
It's me. It worked.
- Hey, nice to see you.
- Oh.
I-I'm sorry.
I-I-I just, I can't kiss
this face. It's just...
- Oh, God. Yeah. Blegh. Gross.
- ...wrong.
Totally get it.
So, what's my big surprise?
Yes.
- This.
- Thank you so much.
Oh, it's a free diaper bag.
No, close. It's a hyperworm.
We are going to fuck up
Family Day.
All you need to do is
leave it in the lobby,
near the concierge desk.
Matteo, what about
all the people?
Horizen's the enemy,
not... not them.
They're safe at home
in VR suits. You know that.
Okay, not the uploads.
It's debatable,
you consider them people.
This is going to make
a big splash.
The AI system will be infected
with our propaganda message.
It's all worked out.
Right.
- Look, I know, but...
- L... Look.
If you want to pursue justice,
sometimes
you have to make a few
rich people uncomfortable, okay?
Ow. You're gonna... Ah!
What-what is...
Hang on.
Come on.
In my own house? Get off him.
I want to clean him up.
He's a real man.
I'm not encouraging her...
It. I'm not encouraging...
You know, your dad
and Pastor Rob
don't think you can do this.
Your dad thinks
you're too kindhearted,
and Pastor Rob
thinks you're soft.
Okay, I'm not soft.
I know. I know you're committed
to changing things.
Well, this is how you do it.
[scoffs] Okay?
You're the only one
here who could pull this off.
I know you won't disappoint us
'cause I believe in you, Nora.
[sighs]
[sighs]
[overlapping chatter]
Oh, give her to me.
Oh. Oopsy-doops. Sorry,
Miss Kannerman, I didn't...
[mocking] "I'm sorry,
Miss Kannerman,
I didn't see you there."
Just watch where I'm going.
Okay?
Stop staring at me,
you useless, pre-programmed
sack of shit.
Oh... Hey.
You will become human
before that woman ever does.
[overlapping chatter]
[baby cooing]
And there,
dangling from the door handle,
was a bloody hook!
- [roars]
- [screams]
[laughs] "Attack
of the Hook Man."
Okay, I totally forgot
about this.
I can't believe
I thought it was okay
to tell a six-year-old
that story.
What a dummy.
Why? I liked it.
You were terrified.
- No way.
- Mom?
Oh, your mother
was furious with us.
You slept with the lights on
for an entire week.
No, no, that does not
sound like me.

Helping? Or making it worse?

You know, Luke was
my commanding officer,
and he was exceptional.
- What?
- Iran
was the first war
with autonomous drones,
so it was intense,
but Luke never
showed the stress.
He kept morale high
when things were rough.
Always figured out ways
to make us smile or help us out.
That's what got
a lot of us home.
I'm having a hard time
processing this.
We're talking

Thanks for today.
It was a pleasure.

- Shut up.
I don't need
a running commentary.
Ma'am?
[sighs]
I try so hard,
and nothing works.
Yeah,
I'm spectacularly beautiful;
Nathan doesn't seem to care.
He's... he's only in love
with me when I'm not me,
and I try to be good to his mom,
but she hates me,
and he takes her side, and...
I think that we're meant
to be together for eternity,
but it is taking forever
to get him there.
I'm...
I'm lovable, right?
Yes.

Yeah.
Aw, babe.
