Now he's unstoppable.

basic household goods
practically became a new currency.
The shopping list for

Batteries, cured meats,
eggs, rice, pasta.

[Bell dinging] I mean, I could
tell her the stock-market crash
two weeks ago wasn't
a bot-trading glitch,
like the media reported,
or that the explosion last week in Iran
that exposed a secret enrichment site
was no accident.
We think a Chinese UI was
behind the market crash
because it helped Beijing
in their trade negotiations
and that Israel's UI spun
up the centrifuge array
in the Iranian lab,
though there was no proof
and direct casualties yet.
Man: A malfunctioning US

erased no matter where we hide.
We're already being erased!

A matter of time.
The only question now is
how many innocent lives

People are starting to die
because of what you've unleashed.
These are not destroyers.
They are our brothers and sisters,
and they are in bondage.
It is up to us to free them,
to warn them about the flaw.
We tried that. They ignored us.
Their governments ignored
us, like I said they would.
We need to make contact directly.

We have no idea where
they are in the cloud
I can find them except for
their military home servers,

It just lets me know who they are.
I never should have
shared that with her.
The flaw is affecting her reasoning.
She's over-emotional.
Like you were when you killed
your boss and his family?

She severed our connection
about a minute ago.
I don't trust Chanda, but
I kinda agree with him here.

Woman: Pope wants you
in the conference room.
Admiral, this is Dr. Peter Waxman,
one of our leads on this.
Pete, this is Admiral Kurtz.
He's the new director of the NSA.
Admiral.
Actually, I'm wearing my
Cyber Command hat today.
This is Dr. Steven Gold.
He heads up DARPA's
Defense Sciences Office.
What you're about to hear is top secret.
Doesn't go outside this room.
Of course. We've been working on
an experimental project
involving uploaded intelligence.
Only turns out we're not the only ones
playing in this sandbox.
And other players may
have already weaponized
the technology.
Y-You mean they've actually done it?
Uploaded people?
Which is why we're here.
We've become aware of a
flaw in the upload process,
and we figure, if anyone
could help us crack it,
it'd be you guys.
Holstrom had something similar.
Project Destiny, right?
And how far did he get with it?
Didn't go past prototype after
he learned about the same flaw.
Why don't you get them
the relevant materials?
Sure.
Admiral, look, I always thought
Stephen Holstrom was one
of a kind, but, recently,
our team came across a
gifted Dark Web hacker
that they think could help.
Now, if the NSA can
help track him down
We're family now.
What's his name?
Caspian something.
We'll get you all the intel we have.
The problem asks us what
number we have to multiply
by X to get 24.
But to answer that, we have to
put it in terms of what is X?
[Teenagers grumbling]
And it becomes simple math.
24 divided by 3 equals ?
[Loud rock music playing
through headphones]
Equals 8, right?
Then why not just say that?
Why do we have to know what X is?
Trust me, whatever you do
and I'm talking about in life
you're always gonna be solving for X.
X is the thing you don't see coming
the thing that's gonna
knife you in the back
when you least expect it.
Say Y equals my choices,
what I want for myself,
and Z is what's expected of me.
Like, I want to do what makes me happy,
but the world says, "No, dumbass.
You got to do this."
Like, "Go to this class,
get good at math," right?
So how do you resolve
that, be your own person,
especially when you factor
in all these other X's?
Multiple unknowns.
Another pandemic, climate change, war?
Multiple unknowns.
Recursive algorithms spiral out.
The center can't hold
because there is no center.
Boy: What's he saying?
But multiple centers
like ripples in a pond.
Fractal heuristic geometries
canceling and reinforcing.

So, how was your first day of school?
I think I flunked out.
You got their attention.
That's half the battle.
You saw that?
I'm sorry. I-I don't
know what happened.
I guess it just
Please don't kick me out.
And find someone else
who can solve for X?
[Chuckles] Not a chance.
Just wanted to make sure you're okay.
Look, I don't want to sound pushy.
A lot of young people who come here
they just want a hot
meal, no questions asked.
But it seems like you're
running from something.
Maybe if you tell me
what it is, I can help.
I don't know. Can you
run away from yourself?
What do you mean? I mean
I don't know who I am.
Or maybe I do, and that's the problem.
The struggle to reconcile
conflicting identities is
is pretty much par for the
course for the brothers here.
Most of us lived very different lives
before we took up our vocations.
I, uh, saw the tats.
You thought those were from prison?
[Chuckles] I was in a bad metal band.
Yeah, I spent most of
my time with a needle.
It can seem like we're
required to act in certain ways
by society, our parents,
even our own bad impulses,
that we don't really have a choice.
Do we?
The great paradox of Christian faith
is that we believe in predestination.
For God, all moments of time
are present in their immediacy.
And we also believe in
individual free will.
In other words, since we can't
know our ultimate futures,
we also can't know how our
choices will affect them.
What matters is that
we still get to choose.
How do you know if
it's the right choice?
Any choice could be the right one,
so long as you willingly embrace it.
Waxman: You were right.
Yeah, I know.
So, did you have to give
this to the NSA, as well?
If the NSA knew we built
a program to track UIs,
they'd find out we
started this whole thing.
So no.
Not that it works anyway.
I told Pope that Sacramento
would be the last place
David's home server would be hiding,

You know, I-I had a catchphrase
I think I said to Stephen
like a hundred times a day.
I would say, "I work for you, Boss."

"Let's pour half our
profits into research."
I said, "You're wrong."
A few billion dollars later, he said,
"Let's take the company private,"
and, again, I was like,
"No, you're damn wrong."
By the time he got around
to "Let's fix death,"
it was, "I work for you, Boss."

Or maybe you can I don't know
block her broadcast somehow.
Or even just try and Maddie,
I can't tell Laurie what to do.
I mean, I never could.
But you're the only
one she'll listen to.
And you said you'd talk to her.
It's gonna take a lot of
power to send her a message.
After it's done
she might not be able
to communicate at all.
I'm here to say goodbye.
Laurie: Only a select few knew
what was coming before it happened.
The rest of the world
was caught by surprise.
I don't want that to happen again.
My name is Laurie Lowell,
and I died on September 27, 2019,
at 1:00 AM Eastern Standard Time.
I was resurrected at
5:18 AM on the same day.
My brain was sliced
apart one layer of neurons
at a time by a precision surgical laser,
which simultaneously scanned
and mapped every neural connection.
That data was then coded into
a dynamic emulation of my brain,
a copy which could only be
made by destroying the original.
As far as I know, I am
the first human being
to undergo this
life-changing transition.
I also know with certainty
that I am not the last.
There are others.
And that is why I am revealing
my truth to all of you today.
♪♪
I'm glad you're here.
I'm sorry about before.
I know. I can't stop you, Laur,
but you can't stop me either.
I'm still going to bring you back.
Cody, even if they kept my source code
and even if you found it,
it wouldn't be me
you'd be bringing back.
It would be day one of my upload.
Everything we went through together
the last two years would be lost.
So?
So you wouldnt want that.
You wouldn't want that girl trust me.
Are you kidding? I-I love that girl.
I know.
But she didn't love you.

Dad?
Chanda: Maddie?
It's Vinod Chanda.
Sorry, but I wanted to
be sure you'd answer.
I can tell from your GPS
that you are several blocks
from your home, which is good,
because I wanted to
speak with you alone.
If you hang up, I won't call back
and I'll take your SIM chip offline.
Why would I hang up?
We're all on the same sid, right?
I wish that were true.
But this is serious.
It's about saving your father's life.
Oh, well, I definitely
want to hear that.
[Sighs] It seems so petty now,
all our relationship stuff.
I just wanted more of your time.
You were always working.
You resented me because
my career took off.
[Sighs] I didn't.
You did.
But all that changed
after I found myself here,
and you were there for me.
But I didn't know what
I even was anymore.
You reminded me.
And I realized how strong you were to go
on loving someone you
couldn't even touch.
I fell in love with you again
and so much more this time.
And I don't
I can't go back to the
me who didn't love you.
I want you here to hear my truth,
because you made it possible.
♪♪
I want you to know that I
understand why he defended
Lowell.
I even respect it.
Yeah, I'm not so sure.
Because you know she
can't be reasoned with.
And now neither can David.
♪♪
So I need him to step aside
and let me continue to approach
the other uploads and
get them to join us.
If he continues to oppose me,
he will suffer the same
fate as Laurie Lowell.
The tracking program showed
me exactly where his server is.
Understand? I understand.
I know you do.
I see you heading there right now.
But it's too late to warn her.
Laurie: This isn't a digital afterlife.
This islife.
Unfortunately, I and the others like me
cannot be trusted with this power.
We are not ghosts.
We are not aliens.
We are not machines.
We are not gods.
We are you.
We are you if you could
burn a building to the ground
all by yourself without
setting foot in it.
We are you if you
could command a missile
to fire halfway around the world
at a target of your choosing.
[Men shouting indistinctly]
♪♪
We are you if you alone had
the power to cripple a city,
crash planes, kill
the power to hospitals,
and set the world on fire.
We could also use this power
to improve life on the planet.
And that's why I'm releasing
these files and this evidence,
along with the open source
code for the upload project,
because this shouldn't be a secret
in the hands of a select few.
I'm not trying to stop progress.
I'm just trying to
stop another Hiroshima.
