Hard Drive 13 (2010) s01e01 Episode Script
Episode 1
Hard Drive 13 1x01 Looks like you're gonna have to drive.
Take the wheel I've always said that if knowledge is power, then secrets are weapons.
I had no idea how right I was.
Secrets.
They do things to people.
Like my dad.
MIA.
Presumed dead.
Maybe one day I'll find out the truth.
The ISD took him away.
And then they took away my best friend.
To be honest, she was more than my best friend.
"Classified", she said.
Wrong answer.
That's why I do what I do.
My name is Nomad.
There are those who call me a hacker.
But really, I'm a freedom fighter with a mouse.
The technology that frees us enslaves us.
So if you're gonna live off the radar you gotta be smart.
Real smart.
Like Dad.
Which is why I'm having a hell of a time figuring out what happened to him.
Who's hacking us? There's maybe five guys in the world who can get this deep into a hardened military server.
- Hey, Lifer.
- Dude, weirdest thing! - That server we've been trying to hack? - Yeah? It just dumped its archive to my computer.
That's weird.
No, no, that's not the creepy part.
The readme file's addressed to you.
Dude, you're famous.
FTP that to me.
I started this little quest looking for my dad.
But this is way bigger than that.
Dude, do you know what this is? I haven't even had a chance to look at it yet.
It's and FTL Engine Control.
It's an operating system for a spaceship.
Are you kid what? An interstellar spaceship.
- Dude, someone just hacked my firewall.
- That's impossible.
I know.
This has never happened before.
You should shut it down.
Look, Bro, I'm just gonna finish this transfer, and then I'll close the connection.
You've been hacking a military server.
Get the hell out of there.
They say the truth will set you free.
But first it'll try to kill you.
Lifer! Lifer! Not good.
Definitely not good.
