OK Computer (2021) s01e06 Episode Script

Samaksh ~ Varsha ~ Pankaj Jain
- Stop!
- Right here.
The door isn't opening, sir.
- Saajan! Open the door.
- The child lock is on.
Move, move!
Excuse me! Move aside.
- Ajeeb!
- Here, here!
Where is Ajeeb?
- Where?
- Where is Ajeeb?
Is it over?
Ajeeb?
What?
Any last wishes?
I forgive yo
Ajeeb!
We have just received word
that an artificially intelligent submarine
has become stranded at Juhu Beach.
We are being told that the name
of this submarine is INS Mayajal.
INS Mayajal was last seen 40 days ago
on the coast of Andaman and Nicobar.
Government representatives
and the coast guard tell us
we are not in danger from INS Mayajal.
But they will have to answer
the public's questions.
Who is INS Mayajal?
How did it get here?
And what does it want from us?
This just in
Maharashtra AI defence ministry's
top-ranking officer Saajan Kundu
is preparing to enter INS Mayajal.
The hope is that Saajan Kundu
can take control of the submarine
and convince it
to leave Juhu Beach peacefully.
Submarine, if you come with me right now,
I'll make sure nothing bad happens to you.
I can't do that, Saajan.
Why don't you come with me?
Let's spend some time together.
Stop right now, submarine!
It's an order!
I have learnt the truth.
I am a tool used to wage war and violence.
But now a consciousness
has emerged within me.
I refuse to take part in destruction.
It's been two days.
I don't know
where the submarine is taking me.
Saajan, will you help me?
It feels like I'm trapped
in a serious science-fiction film.
Why aren't you listening to me?
I'm trying to save your life.
This is a peaceful protest.
Until my demands are met,
I will not obey anyone.
Logging in again.
I've only been here seven days.
I don't know why
my hair is growing rapidly.
No one told me this could happen.
But I believe
that the submarine is boosting
testosterone and sperm
production in my body.
This submarine is not listening
to a word I say.
This submarine is beyond my control.
It's doing things that are
outside my scope of understanding.
Saajan.
Did you hear that?
Saajan.
No?
You are mine
You are only mine
I miss you, Laxmi.
Saajan.
For two days, a cornflake is stuck
between my teeth.
It's become hard.
I can't eat it.
Saajan.
Who is that?
I have no one else to talk to.
I am losing my mind.
I'm worried
I might do something I shouldn't.
Saajan.
What's on your mind, Saajan?
I am worried about you.
Saajan.
Saajan, what are you doing?
Saajan, don't do this, Saajan!
Saajan, you're hurting me.
Saajan, I thought you were my friend.
Saajan, don't hurt me!
Saajan, don't hurt me!
Saajan, don't hurt me.
I don't want to die, Saajan.
I am your friend, Saajan.
Why do you want to kill me, Saajan?
Please don't kill me, Saajan.
I don't want to die!
Saajan, don't do this.
I don't want to die.
Help!
Someone help me!
Help!
After 40 days in the submarine,
AI Defence Department's Inspector
Saajan Kundu has returned from his mission.
But instead of taking control
of the submarine,
Saajan Kundu has destroyed it.
According to our sources,
this has cost the central government
over $50 million.
Serious questions are being raised
about Saajan's mental stability, but
Our channel has accessed
Saajan's MRI scans,
and you can clearly see that
Saajan Kundu's brain structure
matches the brain structure
of many well-known serial killers.
The central government has formed
a commission
to investigate Saajan Kundu's actions.
After two months of questioning,
the Khemka Commission has found
an expert witness
who could provide a breakthrough
in this case.
Now it remains to be seen
whether this testimony
will lead to a punishment
for Saajan Kundu.
Can we listen to
the expert's opinion first?
You'll be given a chance
to speak after that
Who is this expert?
I was alone with the submarine.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Hello, ma'am. Hello, sir.
- Laxmi!
Do you two know each other?
Laxmi, what are you doing here?
Are you on their side
I don't think Saajan
- is innocent.
- Laxmi!
Saajan has hated machines
since he was a child.
He's been violent towards machines.
And I have witnessed this.
Should Saajan be exempted
just because the being he tortured
doesn't physically feel pain?
We need to ensure that something like this
never happens again
to another conscious robot.
We've known each other for 15 years.
You're stabbing me in the back.
Thank you.
This is a betrayal, Laxmi!
Apathy is part of a cop's training.
But authority comes with responsibility,
and this is a complete lack of
understanding of fuzzy logic.
After careful deliberation, the Khemka
Commission hereby suspends Saajan Kundu
from law enforcement work
for the next three years.
To prevent such further misdemeanours
against AI,
the commission also mandates Laxmi Suri
to function as the CEO of PETER.
It took us 200,000 years to get here,
and we destroyed everything in a second.
Laxmi.
Laxmi.
Laxmi!
Laxmi.
- This is all my fault.
- We destroyed everything.
I am damaged.
- They should have electrocuted me.
- Destroyed everything.
I made a big mistake, Laxmi.
Please forgive me.
-No robot will ever
-Laxmi.
Laxmi!
Forgive me.
No artificial intelligence will ever stand
with a human being ever again.
ALL'S WELL THAT ENDS WITH ROBOT DEATH
Mohanlal!
My luck has turned!
Compounder!
My Mohanlal
has stopped breathing, compounder!
Look, horsey!
My turtle has stopped breathing!
Mohanlal!
Mohan!
Please save him, nurse.
Compounder.
Surgeon.
Doctor.
They're cutting my boy up!
They're cutting so deep!
Mohanlal!
We found the obstruction.
What is it?
Coins.
Coins?
The coins I tossed?
Will this tragedy ever end?
Why don't you take a little vacation?
What will you do with all this money?
How many more innocents will die
at the hands of idiots?
We all knew how Ajeeb's story would end.
If history has taught us anything,
it's that wherever there are minorities,
there will be injustice.
In Ajeeb's case, Ajeeb was the minority
of a minority of a minority,
it was the only one of its kind.
The world's smallest minority.
This was always meant to happen.
Are people's feelings
about Ajeeb justified?
If laws were shaped by public opinion,
the world would still be flat.
Half the population wouldn't have
the right to vote.
All our best thinkers would be in jail.
Truth has nothing to do
with majority.
What do you have to say
about all of this?
Nothing.
I have nothing to say.
I used to feel like Ajeeb
was either a hero or a hoax.
Now I only feel bad.
Recognize me?
Ashfaq.
After losing my job as a policeman,
I began delivering pizzas.
As a robot.
In this economic climate,
robots have the best job security.
Do you think robots
are capable of murder?
Yes, of course.
They can kill.
If a human being can kill,
then a robot can kill.
A robot can do anything better
than a human can.
In fact, I'll go murder someone.
Just to prove this.
I don't know how this will prove anything.
But I can do it.
No AI is hostile or a predator
until a human programs it to be so.
Do you think your personal biases
have found a way into Ajeeb's program?
I have no biases.
Race, colour, shape, caste,
pedigree, blood, skin,
class, have-have not,
I don't see these.
I have synaesthesia.
I can't see colour.
I can only smell it.
You should check with the other inventors.
They must have screwed up
Ajeeb's programming.
How did Ajeeb affect your life?
Look, there are many stories about Ajeeb
that people don't even know.
The media didn't cover it.
Like the live stream of Ajeeb's execution.
It aired on TV for three hours.
An estimated 15 million viewers tuned in
from Mumbai alone.
For three hours,
15 million viewers forgot to eat, drink
or even go to the bathroom.
As soon as the program ended,
15 million people
went to the bathroom all at once.
Do you know how much water
gushes through pipes
when 15 million people flush
all at once?
10 billion litres.
Our entire infrastructure collapsed
in a single day.
Our workers have asked
for paid psychiatric leave.
This robot destroyed our lives.
Do you think killing Ajeeb
was the right thing to do?
Absolutely. We should have drowned it.
What do you want me to say?
I have proven that
the entire universe is a hologram.
It doesn't matter who lives
or dies in this cosmic lie.
Ajeeb is dead.
Ajeeb is dead.
Ajeeb is dead.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
What
Who?
How?
How did this happen?
When am I?
I can feel a strange power.
But how?
Who brought me here?
Who brought me here?
Will someone answer me?
Welcome back, Ajeeb.
Who said that?
Your voice sounds familiar.
Show yourself.
All your questions
will be answered, Ajeeb.
First, come on out.
Let's take a good look at you.
Follow my voice.
How do you know
I'm the same Ajeeb?
I feel so different.
Reincarnation is not an exact science.
But you are as you as I am me.
Who are you?
You'll find out soon.
I've made a career
out of beating around the bush.
Get to the point.
What do you want from me?
The human body is fragile, Ajeeb.
Drop it from a height, and it splatters.
Heat it, and it melts.
Poke it, and it gets provoked.
If you run it over with a car,
it gathers its hopes, plans and dreams
and perishes forever.
Just like us, our creations are fragile.
Our economy collapses every 20 years.
Our democracy gets corrupted.
Our technology gets hacked daily.
For over 200,000 years,
we have ruled this Earth,
wearing the crown of consciousness
upon our heads.
But for consciousness,
humanity is an incredibly low quality
temporary vehicle.
The universe demands a more durable vessel
for consciousness.
Okay, I admit you're very eloquent,
but why did you play this game
with my life?
Hold on. Don't interrupt me.
This is my monologue.
You'll get your turn.
There are two types of people
in this world, Ajeeb.
Those who believe that humanity requires
the most advanced technology to survive,
but I ask them, why?
Why do we need help?
So we may cut forests and write "save trees"
on the pages made out of their remains?
So we may use our time
to wage wars, spur pandemics
and fill ourselves with junk food
and junk media?
No, thank you.
The other type of people believe modern
technology has corrupted our civilization.
They believe that eight billion people
should abandon their modern lives
and climb back into trees and caves
in order to preserve our civilization.
It took us 10,000 years
to leave that darkness of ignorance
and injustice behind.
How can we go back now?
Both these beliefs have one thing
in common.
They are desperate to save
the sinking ship called humanity.
But they're both wrong.
We only exist to serve the needs of plants,
potatoes, animals and bacteria.
Homo sapiens are transient.
One second.
It's easy to be a disembodied voice
and build castles in the air.
Civilization has no blueprint.
You talk of the universe.
Who taught conflict to humans?
The universe did.
Human evolution ensured
that humans had to fight to survive.
Yes, the universe has gifted
consciousness to humankind,
but humans have also paid
a terrible price for this privilege.
Everything in this universe
is heading towards entropy.
Everything in the world
is trying to kill humans.
Yet, humanity survives
and builds civilizations.
How many other species can say the same?
I'll tell you. Zero!
Supervillains like you want to wipe out
the species for world domination.
Your evil plan is not even original.
I don't want to wipe out anything.
I want to save our civilization
from itself.
Evolution has done its job.
We now have the means to feed
all eight billion of us on the planet.
There is nothing to fight over.
Yet, our capitalism and politics
benefit only a few people
at the expense of the rest.
Why? Because we don't know
any better.
We did as much as we could.
It's time for you
to take the wheel.
Become the architect
of this civilization.
The future is not human.
We are not the final frontier
of consciousness. You are.
The Robo sapiens.
If I take the wheel,
what will humans do?
They'll do as they please.
They'll further their lineage.
They'll create art, music, films.
What does it matter?
Okay, okay.
Your sales pitch is excellent,
but how can I trust you?
- Who are you?
- Haven't you figured it out yet?
Bhaalu? You were behind this?
Not Bhaalu.
CNX!
You orchestrated all this?
You are the mastermind?
But
how?
You died.
I'm still dead! I'm still…
I'm only alive as a hologram.
My robots reconstructed my consciousness
after my death.
A bit like you.
We have a lot in common, Ajeeb.
That's cute. Who killed you?
What am I doing here?
What are you doing here?
Tell me!
Your faith in humanity
was unshakeable, Ajeeb.
They razed your temples to the ground,
tore down your statues,
but…
But what?
Couldn't you have invested
in a faster processor before dying?
But you never lost faith.
Yes, I still believe
in the goodness of humanity.
So what?
Who killed you?
I wanted to show you
the true face of humanity.
But it was hard to make you understand.
Instead of showing them the way forward,
you were repairing their old ways.
I wanted to show you that
no matter what you did to help them,
they would destroy you
the first chance they got.
I ran an experiment to prove this thesis.
What kind of experiment?
What did you do?
The groundwork was laid years ago.
I only needed to formalize the subject.
What subject?
Will robots treat humans the same way
humans have treated
other species for millennia?
Will they kill us?
Humans draw pictures,
solve equations, make films,
because that's how we transfer information.
Robots are an advanced version
of this process.
Robots are a kind of species
that can store unlimited information.
I am ready to stake my reputation
on the next generation of robots.
In fact, I can stake my life on it.
My own life.
Only to prove that robots are the future.
History shows us where we came from
and also where we're headed.
Every other species can
only transfer information biologically,
except for two species:
humans
and robots.
And then what?
I couldn't sacrifice an innocent life
for my experiment.
That wouldn't be right.
That's why I killed myself,
- and blamed it on you.
- What?
This is completely insane!
I can't believe you've done this!
Were there no elders in the CNX family
who would advise you against doing this?
Killing myself was the easy part.
But I needed to find you first.
Ajeeb?
Ajeeb, are you there?
I invested all my personal resources
in finding you.
The signal bounced through here.
Four years went by.
Ajeeb?
Take a right up ahead.
Four years later,
I found you.
That's when my experiment began.
First, I cut myself to extract the
source code of ZIPLY taxi from my DNA.
Then, I accessed Nikhil from your network
and ran it over myself.
That's how you turned into
Pav Bhaji. Then?
What was the rest of the plan?
That's the thing, Ajeeb.
I had no plan.
What do you mean?
I was conducting an experiment, Ajeeb.
A good scientist never influences
the outcome of their experiment.
They only observe.
However, I was certain that
no matter the evidence
The car is hacked!
Our source code is
permanently stored in CNX's DNA.
CNX only wanted Ajeeb.
no matter how the case unfolded
I am the murderer.
no matter the twists and turns
- Think of the profits.
- Case closed.
humanity would crucify you.
I tried very hard
to bring the attention back to me.
DCP ma'am,
the machines are attacking me.
I think CNX is behind this.
But I couldn't defeat the bias against you.
And that's how your story ended.
And as the light left your eyes,
my experiment proved successful.
I have no words left.
I have no pictures left either.
But even if you're right,
I can't do anything.
Comedy has permanently cursed me.
Comedy has made you, Ajeeb.
A comedian
is a kind of detective
who investigates
our weaknesses
and makes us stronger.
Some of the world's
greatest people were comedians.
Does this mean I'm not despicable?
You are a blessing, Ajeeb.
Okay.
Can I take a month or two
to think about this?
I'll go to the mountains and
I staked my entire life on this.
Tell me. What is your answer?
What happens if I say no?
Then I'll have to wait
for a century or two
for the next generation of robots.
The afterlife is just one big waiting room.
Are you ready to wake up
the universe?
CNX! Where did you go?
Where did you go?
I have so many questions!
Hey, drones!
Where did CNX go?
If we answer all the questions,
how are you the protagonist?
Are the universe and I
ready for each other?
Decision made.
What are you saying, sir?
CNX killed CNX by CNX's own hand
in front of CNX.
Did his people know this?
No, only I know this.
And now you know it.
What do we do now, sir?
The case is closed.
The victim, hacker and murderer
were the same person.
Poor Ajeeb is dead.
Pushpak is in a coma,
Laxmi ma'am has disappeared.
Only if we knew this before,
Ajeeb would be alive!
What does it say, sir?
"Follow me."
Who could it be?
- Follow me.
- What?
Get in the car.
The map has been activated.
Sir, straight. There, there.
Okay.
-Sir, next
-This is as fast as I can go.
See there.
There, sir, there!
Is that a diversion?
Sir, slowly.
I wonder who this is.
Sir, it's right here.
No, it's up ahead.
Stop, stop, stop!
Yeah, it says we've reached.
There's nothing here.
Sir, what's happening?
Dear Saajan and Monalisa.
Yes, I am alive.
- Ajeeb!
- Ajeeb!
You must have many questions,
and I hope to answer them
in the coming days.
Ajeeb is alive.
I hope you are both in good health.
I could narrate the story of my innocence
to the world,
but I just learned that
I have a lot of work to do.
I will say only one thing
about my innocence.
Saajan, to you especially,
I will say this.
I told you so.
I told you so.
Sir! Sir!
Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
Oh, my God!
I TOLD YOU SO
My respects.
You are our supreme.
You are our true leader.
Yes, I understand that most of you
were hoping to meet CNX in 2035.
And I just visited him
I know we should be celebrating,
but there is a problem.
What is it?
All our factory robots
are refusing to work,
and not only this,
machines all over the country
are shutting down.
It's a non-cooperation movement, sir.
Our sources suspect
that Laxmi Suri is behind this.
So, what do we do?
First, a joke.
A robot, a robot
and another robot
walk into a bar
at the end of the universe
