- I hope you're getting this.
- Let's commence our date.
He works at Calimov.
This has to stop now.
We're leaving.
But I haven't finished my date.
- Eve! - Katherine sent him to spy on us, Eve.
My first date with a human boy has ended in failure.
- Er, not today.
- Well, Eve can come and watch.
- No, she can't.
You'll be distracted.
- But, Dad, I've already told Chris.
No arguments.
You're to stay here with her until she's over all this business.
Do I need to remind you Katherine sent Zac to spy on us? The last thing we needed was Eve falling for him.
Well, can't I just get Lily to look after her? No, you can't.
"No, you can't.
" Go talk to her.
Go.
Look, Eve, I know how hard it is.
But you need to understand, you can never see Zac again.
We didn't expect you to have these feelings.
Yeah, and it's not just that.
Zac works for Calimov Systems.
If he finds out you're Project Eternity, he'll tell Katherine and you'll be deconstructedfor analysis.
Lily have you ever wanted to be with someone and been told that you can't? - Well, no, I - Have you ever been kissed and told to forget it? Not really.
Then how do you know how hard it is for me? We've finally found the electronic footprints on the path the hacker used to breach our systems.
I want you to track the footprints backwards to see where they came from.
I can do that.
It's got Mary Douglas all over it.
You crack this, find out where she's hiding, and we're one step closer to finding Project Eternity.
Zac .
.
I'm depending on you.
I'm on it.
What? Get rid of him? No, wait.
You mean? Get Zac fired.
- Oh! Oh, right.
- What do you think I meant? It was when you was on about drastic action.
I thought you might have meant you know.
Doing him in with a shovel and that.
Seriously? No, we need to get Zac out the picture.
- Get Katherine to fire him.
- How? I'll think of something.
But first, we'd better get rid of Eve.
And by that, I mean get her out the way.
Not do her in, OK? - Oh, yes.
- Eve? What you doing? Nothing.
Just about to watch Empire Strikes Back.
So, it's all right for Eve to hang out with you, then? Why?! I've just got to help Will with something.

What, you've never heard of lying? I've got it.
Katherine thinks no-one can be trusted.
Don't you see? Well, um Because she's so sneaky, she looks for it in other people.
Like Zac, for instance.
"Be warned.
"Trust no-one.
"Someone is selling your secrets.
" Oh, please.
Ah, Dr Calvin.
I need to, er, take an early lunch.
Oh! So, you've tracked the electronic footprint, then? Well, no, I'm still working on it.

Abe could not find the DVD! I wanted to see it so much.
I so am disappointed.
Really, really gutted.
Mate.
Listen, Eve, it's really important that you stay here.
- Do not come to the house.
- Why? Because Will's doing something and it's a surprise for you.
And if you come back too early, you'll ruin it.
Do you understand? Yes.
Good.
I wonder what the surprise is.
Oh, come on, there isn't one.
She was lying.
Really? How do you know? Cos she's a rubbish liar.
She never has any details.
- Details? - Yeah.
Like when I was saying I was going to watch Empire Strikes Back.
Our Lily What is it? She hates lying.
So, why was she lying now? To make us believe something that is not true.
Yes, but what? She lied to keep you from going back to the house, because - I know, I know.
- What? There is something they do not want me to see.
Zac! This is the surprise? No, this is what they didn't you to see! Duh! Can we go somewhere more private? Pfft! Boring! Yes.
Come on.
Now what? So, Katherine thought your uncle might know something about Project Eternity.
That's It doesn't matter, you wouldn't understand, but it's a really important work thing and I tried to get out of it.
I really tried.
- You did? - Yeah.
But the good news is, Katherine's got me on something else because we found nothing.
Well, not nothing, exactly.
I found you, didn't I? - I can't find my phone anywhere.
I think I might have, er, left it in here.
You did not.
I saw it on Nick's desk.
Oh.
Yeah, OK, then.
Thanks.
I really like you, Eve.
I can't stop thinking about you.
And, well, I guess what I'm trying to say is Can I get you guys anything? Coffee, juice? We're actually in the middle of something here.
We need to get them to butt out.
- How? - I don't know.
What now? Will you stop saying, "What now"? I'm starting to run out of ideas.
Didn't you hear the phone? No.
Why? That was the police.
The police? It's your dad.
He's been in an accident.
- What? - A terrible accident, with his car.
- He's in the hospital.
- Right, OK.
Which hospital? The nearest one.
That'll be St Jerome's.
They said you should go there right away.
- OK, we'll get a taxi on the main road.
- Yeah.
Did they give any details? Details? Of course, details, yes.
He was hit by a green car driven by a 34-year-old woman.
- No, I meant - Can we just go, please? Hurry up.
What about Zac? He's gone back to the lab to tell Katherine.
Right, let's just go.
- Hi.
I need to see my dad.
- OK.
Um, NickClarke.
Nicholas Clarke.
- It's an emergency.
- A car crash.
Um, the police said he was here.
Please, I really need to see him right now.
Take a seat and I'll see what I can find out.
Just take a seat.
- I've never had a boyfriend before.
- That's all right.
Never kissed a boy before.
That was your first kiss? Wow! I'm not supposed to have these feelings.
Why not? I I don't know.
I'll tell you what.
You stick with me and you'll be all right.
What is it, Eve? There is something I cannot keep from you.
What's that? If I am to be your girlfriend, then you have to be told.
OK.
- And you have to accept it.
- Eve, just tell me.
I am not a robot.
Well, neither am I.
Look, I have feelings, too, you know.
So, don't worry, OK? We're in this together.
All right? 'Hi, this is Zac.
Please leave a message.
' Get here now.
Whenever he annoys me, I just pull a face behind his back.
Shh.
What if he dies, Lily? What if he dies and the last time I saw him, I pulled a face behind his back? Er, no.
No.
Mr Clarke.
- I want you out of this house.
I know how you feel about me, OK? But everything's out in the open now.
Eve and I have had a good talk and well, we think we could have something really special.
Gonow.
I need to speak to Eve alone.
Of course.
But we are seeing each other.
I'll call by later.
OK? Oh - Where is Will? - He's at the hospital.
The hospital? That'll be Eve.
Hello? Will, it's your dad.
Dad? Where have you been? Actually, Katherine, what I do in my own time is my business.
Well, in my time, you missed a phone call.
Someone wants me to think you're selling Calimov's secrets.
Me, selling secrets? Well? - Are you? - No! No way.
I would never betray you.
I detect hostility.
How could you lie like that? Abe taught me.
Well, it was wicked.
Thank you! I had been practising.
No, Eve.
I mean it was wrong.
It was very, very bad.
But I just wanted to get Will and Lily out of the way so I could get Zac on his own.
Have you any idea what you did? Will thought I was dying.
You need to apologise, Eve.
- I am sorry.
- Not to me! Hang on, I'm sorry.
Lily, please stop.
Please.
Stop.
Will? Go away.
Please do not hate me.
I just don't want to look at you right now.
I do not have a father so I do not know what it would be like to lose Nick.
No, you don't.
But you not talking to me .
.
I feel so sad .
.
and empty.
And it's like I'm losing you.
To lose someone for ever .
.
that must be the most terrible thing .
.
even to think about.
And if that is what I put you through today .
.
then I'm sorry.
No more lies.
All right? Lying is a complex human device.
I will not attempt it again.
Oh, that'll be Lily.
I'll get it.
For you.
This is dying foliage.
Well, yeah, but if you put them in some water then There's no time.
I need to tell you something.
Eve Lying is wrong, I know that now.
What's going on? I want to tell you something.
Come on, Eve, whatever it is, just say it.
Well Zac .
.
the truth is .
.
I am a robot.
Oh, Eve, you're so funny.
I am serious.
I was created by Mary Douglas and accidentally brought to life by Will Clarke.
OK, I get it.
Joke's over.
It is not a joke.
I am an artificial person created in a laboratory.
Stop this, Eve.
- Zac, I am Project Eternity.
- I said stop! You've picked up some jargon from your Uncle Nick and you're trying to, what, make fun of me, scare me? I do not want there to be lies between us.
This isn't going to work.
But you said you liked me.
That was before.
But now the mood swings, all these lies.
I am not lying.
I think it's best we Whoa! H-How did you do that? My eyes are high-spec digital cameras.
My limbsare fully detachable.
See? So, you believe me now? We can start again? Stay away from me! Freak! What's going on? Zac? Zac! - Out of my way.
- Come back.
What have you done? I do not know.
I think it's very bad.
I'll say it, shall I? What now? So You're back again, are you? Katherine, you won't believe it.
This is going to blow your mind.
I was completely taken in.
I can't believe I nearly For goodness' sake! I don't know whether to be disgusted or amazed.
But what a discovery.
What? What is? Who have you been speaking to? What are you doing here? - Um, I, er Er, Zac, he said he would help me with my science homework.
Oh, for pity's sake.
Get rid of him.
Then pull yourself together and see me in my office.
Will they come and get me today? Take me to the lab for tests? Not if Will can help it.
You can't tell Katherine.
Please, Zac, I'm begging you.
Don't.
You know what gets me? You knew.
You knew and you made me out to be the bad guy for spying.
And this whole time, you had thatthat thing.
- She's not a thing.
- Well, she sure ain't your cousin from America.
No.
Sh She'sa miracle.
She's not supposed to have feelings.
Oh, come on.
You don't expect me to believe She's just as real as us.
She makes mistakes, she can hurt people, but she feels sorry.
She's a pain in the neck, yeah.
She tries to be good and she trusted you Stop.
OK, stop.
It doesn't make any sense.
Eve can't help what she is.
But you can.
You can help her to survive.
Zac, get in here! Or you could just give her up and be Katherine's lapdog for the rest of your life.
I don't believe you.
You're lying.
Why would I lie? OK.
What do you mean, "gone"? Gone where? I-I dunno.
He must have said something.
Well, he He said - He said - Yes? "I've got to get out of here fast.
"Get out of my way, will you?" And that's it? You'd better get off home, hadn't you? Your father will be worried.
"Eve, I want you to know I didn't tell Katherine about what you are.
"You have Will to thank for that.
" You're safe.
"He says you are special and he's right.
"I've never seen a robot like you.
You could be real.
"But you're not.
" It's like she's got a loose electric wire controlling her memory.
It could all go haywire.
Don't let her out of your sight.
- You haven't seen Eve, have you? - Yes, I just gave her a lift.
What?! Eve! You have to hurry.
I need to get you out of there.
And you can do it.
I don't know how!
