Oh, hi Juliet.
-Laura, how's work? -Ehm Hey, do you know who lives in the apartment next to mine? -Oh, Harold.
-Why, is there a problem? -No, I was just curious.
He's a writer or something.
He keeps to himself.
Harold is blind, you know? Really? I heard he tried to get implant, but they didn't take.
Of course, I'm just guessing.
Honestly, I only seen him couple times.
See you later.
Yes? Ehm hi.
I live next door.
And I know it's really none of my bussines, but the landlady mention that you're blind.
I work at 4Ever.
We do advance protetic I know what 4Ever does.
I wonder if you do.
Look, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to distrub you.
I just thought of to say hello.
You know, be neighborly, or whatever Thank you, Laura, but my problem isn't my eyes.
Well, it's nice to -How do you know my name? -You told me.
Actually I don't think I did.
Perhaps I overheard it at some point.
Thin walls.
I'm afraid I'm not feeling well.
Thank you for your concern, but I won't be needing 4Ever help.
Remember the conversation we had few weeks ago? -Refresh my memory.
-The vice president position.
I was hoping you could sweep that one under the rug.
I need your help, Bethany.
It's better to move you up than to bring in another person I don't know.
So it's strictly business? I never let my personal life interfere with my work.
Look, you know as well as I do our clientele is growing exponentially.
Honestly I can't over see everthing myself.
I need you.
You honestly think we could work together every day without getting involved? Of course! -Not so sure about you, though.
-Oh, cute.
-Strictly business.
-Absolutely.
Never to a safe.
I can't believe I fell for that.
You trick me with drunken wine.
Whatever it takes.
New email from Lonely311 You came.
That song.
Tell me your name.
You already know, don't you? Harold? -In the matter of speaking.
-What do you mean? Harold is kind of like caterpillar.
I'm the buterfly.
-Are you trying to sell a fortune cookie? -No, no, no, no.
Here.
Let me show you.
No more mask.
This is my reality.
Each of these cars are really emails.
Web sites.
Memory moving in the speed of light.
The entire world.
Every thought, every secret, every believe, all right here.
This where I live.
I don't understand.
Where's everyone? It's a facsimile.
You're actually in the labs computer.
I designed this place five years ago.
You worked for Colin? Colin Sommers didn't create 4Ever.
He's nobody.
A front.
He's only there to conceal the true owner.
You? My partner.
My former partner.
That's why you're here.
You've been hurt by their lies, just like me.
You've been spying on me? Using me? For what? I've been able to access everything else.
But Colin keeps all of his secrets here.
A privately secured system which reboots at 15 digits pass code every 12 hours.
Neither I can get in.
But you can.
In the phisycal world.
I need the access code! To do what? To expose the truth about 4Ever! About what they really doing, who owns it, who pulls the string I created a wire to access the Internet, faster than any computer.
Any connections.
I jack-in directly by implating chip in my brain.
But when the experimen went wrong my partner took my place.
-My mistake was his advantage.
-What do you mean went wrong? The longer I stayed in, the harder it was to get out.
Now I can only stay for few hours each day.
The rest of my life has been trapped in this this place.
Why don't you remove the chip? You don't think I tried? It's fused into my brain I can't take it out! I'm slowly dying, a piece at a time.
I want to expose my partner before its too late and I need your help.
You can't be serious.
Colin cast you aside because you got too close to his secrets! Don't you want to find out why? -What's he's hiding.
-What are you doing? Colin.
Sorry, I didn't -I should've know long before this.
-No, I'm sorry! Please no, I won't tell, I swear.
It's just a bad dream.
Someone there! Colin? -He wiped your memory.
-No, you did something -It isn't real.
It didn't happen.
-I love you, Laura.
More than Colin ever did.
You don't have to be alone anymore.
I want out, I want out! Just let me out! I don't know, I mean vice president is alot of responsibilities.
Thanks.
Not to mention your coffee break down here will become much more rare.
Can't be fraternizing with the help, you know.
Oh, shut up! You.
Me.
Convention.
Saturday.
Eh a little too strong.
Ok -What was -Boyfriend in training.
Boyfriend? Didn't even know you two were going out.
Still working on it.
Slowly but surely.
Emphasis on the word "slowly".
So you're training him? Hey, better get them up and running from the get go, you know? Less work weight.
Come in.
Good timing, I was just about to jump shower for my 2 o'clock meeting.
Bethany left this, she want you to sign it.
-Actually I want to talk to you about her.
-I rather not.
I'm making her vice president.
-What? -You don't think she's qualified? I no, I never really thought about it.
Look, I know the situation, me and her isn't.
It's none of my business.
Come on, Laura, talk to me.
Wht did you break it off with me? I mean, really.
Is there something you're hiding from me? Like what? Nothing.
You know me, always paranoid.
I guess this thing about Bethany just took me by surprise.
Forget about it.
I'm fine.
Really.
I'm glad to hear it.
You know how much you mean for me, right? Of course, you too.
I have to get ready.
Would you proces the Burke's file while I'm gone? Yeah, no problem.
Hey, wait up.
Hi Penny.
I'm heading out, is there something you want to ask me? What? Oh, no, don't worry about it.
Already asked Stacey in accounting, turns out she's a big fan of scifi nerd.
Oh, I see.
So you don't want to go with me anymore.
I already asked you, remember? Twice.
That's it? You're just giving up? Ok, so you say Look, it's no big deal.
Don't worry about it.
So, you to go to convention with me on Saturday? Sure.
Pick me up at 8.
Not a bad view huh? Get use to it, this is what it's looks like from the top.
How does it feel to be the new vice president of 4Ever? Like it's a bad idea.
On the contrary I think this is a start of a beautiful partnership.
Oh, so now you're saying we are partner? In a matter speaking And does that mean I get full access? Completely.
And you'll tell me everything? All of you, and your company dirty little secrets? I don't have any secrets.
Harold? Harold? Harold! Exhaustion, I assume.
You? You killed him.
It was the chip in his brain.
I'm afraid the body can only take so much for so long.
What is that? The access code? You shouln't done that, Laura.
I've seen you before.
You were there.
In that room.
Colin assured me you wouldn't remember anything.
Oh, well Best laid plans and all that.
Who are you? I'm the owner and creator of 4Ever.
Well co-creator.
Try being fair about it.
My name is Adrien.
Adrien Turner.
I understand, I'm taking care of it.
Colin? Do you always work this late? Comes with the job.
Just some paperwork to go over.
Now that Laura is gone, I have to do everything myself.
What? Yeah, I didn't tell you.
Laura, she quit.
Because of us? Don't beat yourself up, it wasn't your fault.
It was Julia, now Laura Nothing change, employees come and go.
So you don't feel anything about losing Laura? Of course I do.
-I want Julia back.
-What? You want me to be vice president? Those are my terms.
I can't just put her back to research after what she did.
Nont in research.
She'll work for me.
Everything has it's price, Colin.
How badly do you want me?
