This Is Not My Life (2010) s01e12 Episode Script
Episode 12
It's bad enough that I have to marry Gordy.
I don't want to have his kid.
Who said it was Gordy's? Were you ever going to tell me? - I am coming with you.
- I love you.
Ah! Uh! Jesus Christ! You again? I should shoot you.
We're clear! There's been an attack at the power-transfer station.
What kind of attack? Someone blew it up.
And the transmitter on Mt Tane.
- No.
- There are principles at stake here.
Increase my budget and give me control of AI surveillance.
Our customers have absolute right to privacy.
Surveillance noticed movement at the edge.
Get down, get down there.
Real guns.
Leaving Waimoana would be a very big mistake.
That's not your problem any more.
- Yeah.
We've got a live one.
- They're using a kind of scanner.
There was a fence.
We wouldn't have got far on foot.
We're not giving up.
No way.
You have selected an 'unusual movement' - Jessica Wilmot.
Don't lie to me! Who are you? I'm Alec Ross.
Get down there, everyone.
They're getting closer.
They're coming this way.
Here comes the cavalry.
They're there! Over there! This way! Stay where you are! Don't move! Who are you? Who? Alec.
What are you talking about? I'm Alec Ross.
You've got to be shitting me.
No.
I swear it.
I'm Alec Ross.
And I know who you are.
John Sheridan.
What do you want? I've come to get you out of here.
So, uh, how's Callie? She OK? Yeah, yeah.
She's-She's good.
Well, they said-they said she wouldn't remember me.
That she'd think you were me.
Yeah, well, that's how it works.
Uh, but they didn't blank you out? You still remember? Uh, I remember all right.
Another text from Becky.
She and Leela have been swimming again.
She's having such a great holiday.
Alec, are you even listening to me? Huh? What are you doing? Uh, updating my golf stats.
Go! You'll be late for work.
And, Jude, I have to change today's meeting.
Something big's come up.
Oh, is that, uh, nine holes or 18? Oh, Jude, Jude.
You know me too well.
Don't forget to swing by Wellness on your way.
Wellness? Mm, you have an 11 o'clock.
Bugger.
Excuse me.
I don't understand what's happening here.
I feel fine.
Better safe than sorry.
We'll let Callie know.
Dr Collins! Natasha, will you tell him there's nothing wrong, please? Uh, what is going on here? It's OK, Mr Ross.
Take it easy.
I came to in some kind of prison - high fences, guards, dogs.
No one would tell me anything.
Where's this? Middle of nowhere.
There were maybe 20 of us.
The rest were all prisoners.
So how did you get free? Your mates busted us out.
What mates? Recall.
You mean the terrorists? I thought they were your mates? Maybe.
Well, they go on about John Sheridan like you're the big cheese.
We're, um, supposed to find you and take you to this rendezvous - a place I used to take Christian.
Well, that was the plan.
Four of us came in.
At least one of them's dead.
We were ambushed.
What do they want with me? I don't know.
They talk crap most of the time, if you ask me.
Up the revolution.
Well, if they talk crap, why did you come back? For Callie.
She's all I could think about.
Her and the kids.
Everything I had.
I want my life back.
What time is it? What were you doing? How do you mean? Well, you were flagged as an 'unusual movement'.
Were you meeting them? Who? The terrorists.
No.
Well, you were out in the middle of nowhere at 2 in the morning.
I No.
This is going to sound so crazy.
I was at work, and there was no one else around, and I went for a walk.
In the middle of the night? I just needed some time to think.
Everything's been so fast lately with you, me and the baby.
I I just started walking, and I lost track of time.
And then what happened? I realised how stupid I was being, and I went back.
I just turned around and went back to work, that's all.
Was there anyone else with you? No.
Anyway, wouldn't you know? Terrorists are from the outside - they don't have locators.
And if Richard found out Jesus.
I'm not a terrorist, Gordy.
I'm just a messed-up person, that's all.
I don't deserve you.
You just scared the crap out of me.
Well, authorities say it was touch-and-go, but due to the heroic actions of Waimoana Watch, That's us.
the terrorists were apprehended.
Regional manager of Safeway Security Options Richard Foster has urged residents to go about their business as normal, but to remain vigilant.
- And to more local news- - Ooh.
It's going to be tough today.
Everyone will want my autograph.
Do they really steal children? What? No, darling, they don't.
That's what Jodie at school said.
Alec? Uh, hello.
What's that? Maybe Becky should stay home today? Uh, no, no.
Uh, you heard what the news said, uh, business as usual, eh? Jude, this is family time.
Gordy picked up on it last night.
I spun him some line about needing time to think, but Did he buy it? I don't know.
I think so, but- I'm at Gordy's place now, but can we meet? Oh, I'm just washing my hair.
It's OK, babe.
Do you want the shower? No, it's OK.
No hurry.
Come on, Becky! Could you move any slower? Sure.
Don't be cheeky, miss.
Uh, hang on.
Uh, I just remembered I need the car today.
I've got meetings all over the place.
What? But, uh, yeah, maybe you should walk Becky, just to be on the safe side.
All right, all right.
Come on, you.
Hurry up.
Christian too.
Let's go.
Bye.
Bye.
See ya, mate.
What the hell were you doing? I just wanted to see her again.
God, she's so beautiful.
- If I could just talk to her, maybe- - No.
she might remember.
It's like I said.
She won't.
It's not possible.
It's just what they do.
I'm sorry, mate.
Gordy? Can we meet? I need to talk to you.
Sounds serious.
It is.
I think I messed up badly.
I love her more than life, but You feel betrayed.
She is a good person.
I swear to you.
But he keeps messing with her head.
Alec Ross? I should've dealt with him a long time ago.
No, no, no.
That'll be a mistake.
Track her, but don't alarm her.
If she meets Ross, let me know.
Yeah, but you could bring him in now.
Jessica's- This is not about you and your Now, I could have neutralised Ross a long time ago, but what would that leave me? One man.
And while he's out there, free to run around, I've got you on his case.
Your job is to watch.
But don't interfere.
Is that clear? You OK with that, Gordy? Yes, sir.
Maybe your girl was out there having a walk in the moonlight? Maybe she was meeting somebody for Ross to pass on a message to the bad guys? We don't know.
You can still find out.
Sure, I understand.
Good man.
Hi.
Just to say, Resident Watch is on the alert.
Any concerns, I'm your first point of contact.
Good to know, Roy.
Carry on.
Oh, by the way, I didn't, uh, lend you my drill bits, did I? Uh, don't think so.
Uh, running a bit late.
Carry on.
He always was a nosy old bastard.
Yeah.
This is really uncomfortable.
Well, it's probably better than being shot.
Oh, oh, thank God.
I've been going crazy.
Same.
Mmm.
It's OK.
Jessica.
Looking good.
Who are you? You really don't remember me? Huh, good thing, probably.
Yeah.
This is, uh, Alec Ross.
The real one.
Mm.
You are shitting me.
That's what he said.
Uh, look, I need to hide him until I can figure out what to do.
- Here? - Cosy.
It shouldn't be long.
And his chip? Can he be tracked? - Oh, you know what? - After last night, Gordy'll be on my case.
Can I speak? They zapped me with something here.
It stung like buggery, but I don't think it works any more.
You don't think? Uh, look, this is about us getting outta here, OK? I just need some more time.
Yeah, OK.
I can work it.
Yeah? You don't give up, do you? Hell no.
Hey, babe.
Hey.
What are you doing here? I had some downtime.
Do you want a hand with this? Oh, no.
It's just a few tops and knickers.
But I was thinking, why don't we move in together? Well, what are we waiting for? OK, let's do it.
What? Now? Yeah.
I've got the car here.
Look here.
Put this in the car, and, um, why don't you take me to lunch? We can get my stuff any time.
I'm starving.
Hey, who's that? Shit.
He's gone.
So, about this rendezvous? Hey! Follow me.
You're here.
Good.
So the others got through, too? Well, only one that I know of - Alec Ross.
Uh, the old Alec Ross.
It would have to be him.
So, is there a plan? 2am, Hunters Hill.
Tonight? I have to confirm, but, yeah.
Oh, OK.
Back it up.
I've got some requirements.
Becky's been factored in.
- Well, she could be safer here.
- If you're not here, she goes.
Who says? It's orders.
From who? I can't discuss that.
There's one other person who needs to come.
Who? A friend.
It's not negotiable.
Either she comes or I stay.
I'll let them know.
How do I know I can trust you? We took a big risk, so some gratitude's app- OK, OK, OK.
I had to ask the question.
Yeah, maybe.
Take this.
There's one contact number, and it can't be traced.
Call me if you need to.
Emergency only.
When was this taken? Someone wiped your image from I-com.
We only had one hard copy to go by.
It's a pleasure to finally meet you properly at last, John Sheridan.
The same.
Yes, Richard.
Kia ora.
Mrs Hobbs.
I understand you've put in a request to monitor internal communications within Waimoana.
I wasn't aware it was a storage and retrieval issue.
There is some nervousness from the board about your little experiment.
They've asked me to keep an eye on things.
Hmm.
It's a broad brief.
I'm sorry to say your request has not been approved.
Can I ask why? As you are aware, personal privacy is a keystone of the Eugene promise.
Obviously, I disagree.
Key principles aren't important to you? If there's nothing to hide, there should be no fear.
The threat is real.
So you said last time when it was all part of your little experiment.
This time it is not the case.
You expect me to believe that? Oh, honestly.
Mrs Hobbs- I'm recommending the board call a halt to your experiment.
You can't be serious.
Rumours, fears, shots in the dark.
The residents are bonding.
They're-They're working together.
They're- How long until they start seeing spies everywhere? Before they turn on each other? History, Richard.
It's happened all before.
I'm trying to save this community and save money.
That would appeal to some of the board.
My staff are undertaking an assessment of happiness levels.
You'll receive a copy in due course.
Haere ra.
Bitch.
Hey.
Alec? Alec? Are you in here? Alec? So, what's next on the menu? Bit of a lie-down? Yeah, I could definitely sleep.
That's not quite what I was thinking.
It's probably work.
Hi.
Don't change shifts on me again, please.
It's all on.
We're outta here.
When's this? Uh, tonight.
Could we meet at yours later? Yeah, OK.
But only this once.
Someone's called in sick.
I'm going to have to go into work tonight.
Sorry, babe.
It's OK.
We do what we have to do.
Dickhead.
Oh.
Can I help you? Callie, it's me.
I'm sorry.
Who are you? Can I come in, Cal? No.
Oh, come on.
You must remember me? I'm afraid I don't.
If you don't mind, I'd like you to leave.
Oh, Cal.
Come on.
What the? You're calling me Cal as if I should know who you are.
- Is everything all right here? - We're fine.
No, we're not fine.
This person seems to have me confused with someone else.
You're not from around here.
Well, actually, I'm- Hey, mate! You beat me here.
You know this guy? Yeah, sure.
This is Pete.
He's the, uh, the new guy at work.
Ah.
I'll leave you to it.
Nice to meet you, Pete.
Same.
Roy.
Uh, this is Roy.
Roy, Roy.
Right, right.
Huh.
Why did you say you knew me? I Uh, Peter Mayberry, uh, year 13.
Ring any bells? We went to school together? See? I told you she wouldn't remember you.
Oh, I'm crushed.
We were going down the club, eh? You could at least show me around the place while I'm here.
Would you like a glass of beer? Sounds great.
Lovely place you've got.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Um, I'm sorry about the misunderstanding.
No problem.
I'm sorry for upsetting you.
No, no.
You caught me off guard.
That's all.
So, Peter, are you in HR as well? Uh, management.
Just started.
Great.
Mum! Oh, excuse me.
I'd better see what she wants.
Yeah.
That's my Cal.
What the hell are you doing? - I thought if I saw her, it'd come back.
- I told you that- Look, you can't just wipe someone's whole life away.
You can't.
Who's that? That's Becky.
No, it's not.
- That is not Becky.
- We'll talk- No, you cannot go to the park on your own.
I'll be fine.
No, darling.
Not at the moment.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Becky, this is Dad's workmate, Peter.
We'll head to the club now - have a hit at the driving range.
I thought you'd given up golf? No, uh, I-I still keep a hand in.
Yeah.
Cheers.
Thanks, love.
Oh, uh, I'll catch you later.
Bye, Callie.
Bye.
Where'd that little girl come from? She's my real daughter.
Uh, her name used to be Hannah.
Uh-huh.
Well, where's my Becky? I don't know.
Did Recall ever mention about taking children? Yeah.
They're big on that.
Putting them back with their real families if But not Becky.
I mean, she went on holiday with Leela.
Well, that's what they do.
When kids go missing, uh, Eugene makes everyone think that they're away on holiday, student exchange, medical reasons- No, no, no.
No way.
Then they come back again, only it's not really them.
I know Becky.
She is my daughter.
Like Callie thinks I'm her husband? Christian thinks I'm his dad.
I was there when he was born.
And Becky, too.
And me and Callie - we're like childhood' sweethearts.
And I am not making that up.
- But that-that's- - It's true.
I know that's how it feels, OK? I know.
You just-You can't go round making waves, OK? When I was here, I took everything for granted.
I never even knew what I had.
And now it's gone, all of it.
Shit.
Maybe you could still get it back.
Oh, how? If no one even knows me.
You got replaced once.
Well, it could happen again.
Hi.
Oh, hi.
Just looking for Alec.
He's gone out, I'm afraid.
Where to? You could try calling him.
Right, yeah.
I will.
Thanks.
Actually, you know what? I think I left some fishing gear here.
If you did, it'll be in the garage.
Alec's inner sanctum.
Doesn't like anyone poking round in there.
You know what? I was kinda planning a trip first thing.
Going to chuck a line in.
So, if I could? Sure.
Is that really such a good idea? What? Fishing at a time like this.
You're not worried about strangers? Oh, I think we're still safe enough in Waimoana.
Cute.
Yes.
Alec's been fixing it up for Becky.
I think he got a little carried away.
So, is it here? What? Your fishing gear.
No, it must be somewhere else.
Well, I'll let Alec know you dropped by.
Log in Mrs Hobbs.
Log in Mrs Hobbs.
File request.
What's up? I need more time.
Can you tell them? But it's been set up.
Another 24 hours, that's all.
It's important.
I'll see what I can do.
We shouldn't meet again.
What happened to Becky Ross? Who? Did Recall take the real Alec's daughter to make a place for Hannah? - Oh, they don't tell me everything.
- What do they tell you? They tell me how to get you out, and I say fine.
That's how it works.
How did Recall find me? - Someone got a message out.
- Well, can I meet them? Talk to them? They're dead.
There was a young woman who I met.
She was going to help me, and then I got- - Yeah, Tamar.
- Yeah.
My brother, Jed, was her partner.
They both died because of you.
So you should keep away, OK? OK.
I'm-I'm sorry.
But we should be safe, cos I don't have a chip inserted.
How'd you manage that? Uh, it's a long story.
But what do I do about the others when it comes time to leave? You may as well have this now.
Hold it to the back of the head and press on the green button until it beeps twice.
What is it? Is it, like, electromagnetic? Well, you tell me.
As far as I know, you invented it.
Thanks.
I'm a little busy right now, Gordy.
Alec Ross has no locator ID.
What did you say? I tracked him to his house.
According to my scanner he was in his garage, but he wasn't.
So where is he? I don't know.
I watched the house for two hours, but he didn't show.
And there was no call-out.
He's alive.
He's just not where his locator is.
You've only just worked this out? Yeah.
And now I'm letting you know.
Thank you, Gordy.
Where's your girlfriend? She's at my place.
Napping before her shift.
Let's just hope that she's alone.
It's unfortunate, but interfaces have malfunctioned before.
According to my source, his locator ID's still active.
It's just not where it should be.
Perhaps your source is the problem? I doubt that.
As soon as he's located, I want the device replaced immediately.
But that's impossible.
What did you say? I mean, it's a delicate neurosurgical procedure.
I'll need to arrange a specialist from Gaulton.
Then you'd better get on to it.
In the meantime, I want Alec Ross brought in and restrained.
On what grounds? He's a client, a citizen, not a prisoner.
Mm.
Yeah, you're right.
You're absolutely right.
You do what you normally do.
I will.
Good.
I'll take care of the rest.
You see, Waimoana's changing, and you need to be with me, not against me.
Yes, it is changing.
I just want us to be on the same side, Natasha.
Otherwise you'll find yourself finishing up in a shit hole crying yourself to sleep; remembering that you were this close to paradise, but you blew it.
I'll take care of it.
You see? We can be friends.
And don't go bothering the board and Mrs Hobbs about this, cos I'll know.
Hey, beautiful.
Good nap? Yeah.
Great.
I better get ready for work.
You OK? - Yeah, sure.
- You seem kind of jumpy.
Hormones and night shift - it's a deadly combo.
Hey, well, I cleared some space for your stuff.
I think we might need a nursery.
Great.
I'll serve up.
I'm not all that hungry.
Yeah, but you can't go to work on an empty stomach.
You're eating for two.
Yeah, OK.
Thanks.
Did you tell Peter to come for dinner? Oh, no.
He went back to his hotel.
Alec, now he'll think we're so rude! - He was fine about it.
- Still don't remember him.
Uh, well, he was a lot skinnier back then.
He had, uh, terrible acne.
And we were actual friends? Because I really didn't take to him.
Don't you dare tell him that! Oh, I won't.
There was something, I don't know, a bit odd about him.
He-He-He's had a bit of a hard time of it lately.
What kind of a hard time? He lost his wife, uh, recently.
Oh, that's terrible.
Why didn't you say? I couldn't.
Oh God.
I was so unsympathetic.
You have to bring him to dinner tomorrow night.
I'll mention it.
No, no.
You have to insist.
Tell him I don't know - he'll hurt my feelings otherwise.
Uh, your other strange friend was here today, too.
Who was that? Gordy.
Said he was looking for his fishing gear.
Alec? Alec, could you come in here, please? Uh, yeah.
I won't be long.
You have to come in right now.
Wellness are here.
Come on.
Uh, yeah.
This has to be a mistake.
No mistake, sir.
It's been scheduled.
What can be so urgent? - You'd have to ask Dr Collins about that? - It's dinner-time.
It's OK, Cal.
Uh, I'll take the car.
No need to waste your C credits, sir.
There's nothing I can do.
Gordy.
Shit! You were careless.
The surgeon's booked for tomorrow morning.
Tomorrow? Uh, tomorrow's too soon.
What difference does it make? I just need one more day.
Richard has the upper hand.
I was hoping we could find a way to neutralise him, but I'm sorry.
You know this means you'll be subject to a full memory download? - Can you access that database from here? - What? Well, they must store the original uploads.
Can you access them here? No.
No, that'd be too easy.
When an adjustment is necessary, we make a request.
Who to? It's Mrs Hobbs.
How could you possibly know that? Look, um, I'm never going to agree with you about Waimoana, but I know you're a good person.
You're far too good for this place.
You still don't appreciate what you've got here, do you? I'm not your enemy, OK? You've got until 11 tomorrow, am.
That's all I can do.
Fine.
There's something else.
Richard wanted you restrained, then changed his mind.
I assume he had good reason.
Thanks.
Hey.
Alec? You all right? Uh, fine.
It was all a mix-up.
Uh, those idiots.
Oh, I knew it.
So, shall I come and pick you up now? Uh, no.
They'll, uh, they'll drop me back.
Are you sure? Cos I might take Becky out.
She's been going stir-crazy cooped up in the house all day- It's-It's fine.
Uh, I-I'll see you a bit later on.
OK.
Love you.
This is awesome.
Yeah.
Yeah, isn't it? - Is everything all right there, Alec? - Oh, hey, Roy.
Uh, look, I-I don't want to sound like an alarmist or anything, but, uh, do you know them? No.
It's probably nothing.
Leave it to me.
- Hey.
- Alec, where have you been? - What's up? - Gordy knows something.
Yeah.
Him and Richard Foster.
Crap.
I think we can still make it, but not tonight.
Uh, there's been a complication.
So, what are you saying? That we're going to have to wait? I'm not leaving.
Never said you were.
What's the point? Callie doesn't know me.
Like I said, there could be a way to change things back the way they were, if you're serious about staying.
Will Callie remember me? Well, if I pull it off, yeah.
She'll think that you're her husband, Alec Ross.
But you know that won't make it true? It's good enough for me.
I hate to do this, but you have to go back to Gordy.
Now, be as normal as you can.
Distract him any way you can.
Whatever you do, just-just keep him away from here.
OK.
If I manage to do this, there's no turning back.
We'll have to leave.
Well, it's about time.
Yeah.
Hello, what's he forgotten? Wait, wait, wait, wait.
In there.
Gordy? What are you doing? - Shut up! Just shut up! I saw him leaving.
- Who? Don't.
I warned you.
I told you, stay away from him.
Nothing happened.
I didn't invite him.
We had a cup of coffee and a chat- No, no.
You were meant to be at work.
- I came here to pick up a cleaning- - Stop lying to me! Richard is using Ross as bait.
He's using you and he's using me.
I can still make this work.
I can protect you, but you can never see Ross again.
Never again.
I won't.
Give me your PeC.
- Gordy- - Give it to me! OK, let's go.
Jesus.
while we download and analyse that information and decide if an adjustment is called for.
Have you had dinner yet, dear? Not yet.
Well, let's see what we can find open, shall we? Log off Mrs Hobbs.
Log in Mrs Hobbs.
File request.
Welcome, Mrs Hobbs.
Uh, file search Ross family.
Um, uh, history replacements.
Do you mean Ross family interventions? Yes, yes, of course.
You requested the file Becky Ross.
Uh, file request Alec Ross.
Previous history.
Yeah.
You have requested to replace Alec Ross A-R-2-3-8-4-9 with Alec Ross A-R-2-1-4-0-9.
Is this correct? Yes.
Please specify a time frame for this replacement.
You have requested a global change.
Are you sure you wish to proceed? Yes.
Global change confirmed.
Memory download and replacement settings will commence in 28 hours and 17 minutes.
I don't want to have his kid.
Who said it was Gordy's? Were you ever going to tell me? - I am coming with you.
- I love you.
Ah! Uh! Jesus Christ! You again? I should shoot you.
We're clear! There's been an attack at the power-transfer station.
What kind of attack? Someone blew it up.
And the transmitter on Mt Tane.
- No.
- There are principles at stake here.
Increase my budget and give me control of AI surveillance.
Our customers have absolute right to privacy.
Surveillance noticed movement at the edge.
Get down, get down there.
Real guns.
Leaving Waimoana would be a very big mistake.
That's not your problem any more.
- Yeah.
We've got a live one.
- They're using a kind of scanner.
There was a fence.
We wouldn't have got far on foot.
We're not giving up.
No way.
You have selected an 'unusual movement' - Jessica Wilmot.
Don't lie to me! Who are you? I'm Alec Ross.
Get down there, everyone.
They're getting closer.
They're coming this way.
Here comes the cavalry.
They're there! Over there! This way! Stay where you are! Don't move! Who are you? Who? Alec.
What are you talking about? I'm Alec Ross.
You've got to be shitting me.
No.
I swear it.
I'm Alec Ross.
And I know who you are.
John Sheridan.
What do you want? I've come to get you out of here.
So, uh, how's Callie? She OK? Yeah, yeah.
She's-She's good.
Well, they said-they said she wouldn't remember me.
That she'd think you were me.
Yeah, well, that's how it works.
Uh, but they didn't blank you out? You still remember? Uh, I remember all right.
Another text from Becky.
She and Leela have been swimming again.
She's having such a great holiday.
Alec, are you even listening to me? Huh? What are you doing? Uh, updating my golf stats.
Go! You'll be late for work.
And, Jude, I have to change today's meeting.
Something big's come up.
Oh, is that, uh, nine holes or 18? Oh, Jude, Jude.
You know me too well.
Don't forget to swing by Wellness on your way.
Wellness? Mm, you have an 11 o'clock.
Bugger.
Excuse me.
I don't understand what's happening here.
I feel fine.
Better safe than sorry.
We'll let Callie know.
Dr Collins! Natasha, will you tell him there's nothing wrong, please? Uh, what is going on here? It's OK, Mr Ross.
Take it easy.
I came to in some kind of prison - high fences, guards, dogs.
No one would tell me anything.
Where's this? Middle of nowhere.
There were maybe 20 of us.
The rest were all prisoners.
So how did you get free? Your mates busted us out.
What mates? Recall.
You mean the terrorists? I thought they were your mates? Maybe.
Well, they go on about John Sheridan like you're the big cheese.
We're, um, supposed to find you and take you to this rendezvous - a place I used to take Christian.
Well, that was the plan.
Four of us came in.
At least one of them's dead.
We were ambushed.
What do they want with me? I don't know.
They talk crap most of the time, if you ask me.
Up the revolution.
Well, if they talk crap, why did you come back? For Callie.
She's all I could think about.
Her and the kids.
Everything I had.
I want my life back.
What time is it? What were you doing? How do you mean? Well, you were flagged as an 'unusual movement'.
Were you meeting them? Who? The terrorists.
No.
Well, you were out in the middle of nowhere at 2 in the morning.
I No.
This is going to sound so crazy.
I was at work, and there was no one else around, and I went for a walk.
In the middle of the night? I just needed some time to think.
Everything's been so fast lately with you, me and the baby.
I I just started walking, and I lost track of time.
And then what happened? I realised how stupid I was being, and I went back.
I just turned around and went back to work, that's all.
Was there anyone else with you? No.
Anyway, wouldn't you know? Terrorists are from the outside - they don't have locators.
And if Richard found out Jesus.
I'm not a terrorist, Gordy.
I'm just a messed-up person, that's all.
I don't deserve you.
You just scared the crap out of me.
Well, authorities say it was touch-and-go, but due to the heroic actions of Waimoana Watch, That's us.
the terrorists were apprehended.
Regional manager of Safeway Security Options Richard Foster has urged residents to go about their business as normal, but to remain vigilant.
- And to more local news- - Ooh.
It's going to be tough today.
Everyone will want my autograph.
Do they really steal children? What? No, darling, they don't.
That's what Jodie at school said.
Alec? Uh, hello.
What's that? Maybe Becky should stay home today? Uh, no, no.
Uh, you heard what the news said, uh, business as usual, eh? Jude, this is family time.
Gordy picked up on it last night.
I spun him some line about needing time to think, but Did he buy it? I don't know.
I think so, but- I'm at Gordy's place now, but can we meet? Oh, I'm just washing my hair.
It's OK, babe.
Do you want the shower? No, it's OK.
No hurry.
Come on, Becky! Could you move any slower? Sure.
Don't be cheeky, miss.
Uh, hang on.
Uh, I just remembered I need the car today.
I've got meetings all over the place.
What? But, uh, yeah, maybe you should walk Becky, just to be on the safe side.
All right, all right.
Come on, you.
Hurry up.
Christian too.
Let's go.
Bye.
Bye.
See ya, mate.
What the hell were you doing? I just wanted to see her again.
God, she's so beautiful.
- If I could just talk to her, maybe- - No.
she might remember.
It's like I said.
She won't.
It's not possible.
It's just what they do.
I'm sorry, mate.
Gordy? Can we meet? I need to talk to you.
Sounds serious.
It is.
I think I messed up badly.
I love her more than life, but You feel betrayed.
She is a good person.
I swear to you.
But he keeps messing with her head.
Alec Ross? I should've dealt with him a long time ago.
No, no, no.
That'll be a mistake.
Track her, but don't alarm her.
If she meets Ross, let me know.
Yeah, but you could bring him in now.
Jessica's- This is not about you and your Now, I could have neutralised Ross a long time ago, but what would that leave me? One man.
And while he's out there, free to run around, I've got you on his case.
Your job is to watch.
But don't interfere.
Is that clear? You OK with that, Gordy? Yes, sir.
Maybe your girl was out there having a walk in the moonlight? Maybe she was meeting somebody for Ross to pass on a message to the bad guys? We don't know.
You can still find out.
Sure, I understand.
Good man.
Hi.
Just to say, Resident Watch is on the alert.
Any concerns, I'm your first point of contact.
Good to know, Roy.
Carry on.
Oh, by the way, I didn't, uh, lend you my drill bits, did I? Uh, don't think so.
Uh, running a bit late.
Carry on.
He always was a nosy old bastard.
Yeah.
This is really uncomfortable.
Well, it's probably better than being shot.
Oh, oh, thank God.
I've been going crazy.
Same.
Mmm.
It's OK.
Jessica.
Looking good.
Who are you? You really don't remember me? Huh, good thing, probably.
Yeah.
This is, uh, Alec Ross.
The real one.
Mm.
You are shitting me.
That's what he said.
Uh, look, I need to hide him until I can figure out what to do.
- Here? - Cosy.
It shouldn't be long.
And his chip? Can he be tracked? - Oh, you know what? - After last night, Gordy'll be on my case.
Can I speak? They zapped me with something here.
It stung like buggery, but I don't think it works any more.
You don't think? Uh, look, this is about us getting outta here, OK? I just need some more time.
Yeah, OK.
I can work it.
Yeah? You don't give up, do you? Hell no.
Hey, babe.
Hey.
What are you doing here? I had some downtime.
Do you want a hand with this? Oh, no.
It's just a few tops and knickers.
But I was thinking, why don't we move in together? Well, what are we waiting for? OK, let's do it.
What? Now? Yeah.
I've got the car here.
Look here.
Put this in the car, and, um, why don't you take me to lunch? We can get my stuff any time.
I'm starving.
Hey, who's that? Shit.
He's gone.
So, about this rendezvous? Hey! Follow me.
You're here.
Good.
So the others got through, too? Well, only one that I know of - Alec Ross.
Uh, the old Alec Ross.
It would have to be him.
So, is there a plan? 2am, Hunters Hill.
Tonight? I have to confirm, but, yeah.
Oh, OK.
Back it up.
I've got some requirements.
Becky's been factored in.
- Well, she could be safer here.
- If you're not here, she goes.
Who says? It's orders.
From who? I can't discuss that.
There's one other person who needs to come.
Who? A friend.
It's not negotiable.
Either she comes or I stay.
I'll let them know.
How do I know I can trust you? We took a big risk, so some gratitude's app- OK, OK, OK.
I had to ask the question.
Yeah, maybe.
Take this.
There's one contact number, and it can't be traced.
Call me if you need to.
Emergency only.
When was this taken? Someone wiped your image from I-com.
We only had one hard copy to go by.
It's a pleasure to finally meet you properly at last, John Sheridan.
The same.
Yes, Richard.
Kia ora.
Mrs Hobbs.
I understand you've put in a request to monitor internal communications within Waimoana.
I wasn't aware it was a storage and retrieval issue.
There is some nervousness from the board about your little experiment.
They've asked me to keep an eye on things.
Hmm.
It's a broad brief.
I'm sorry to say your request has not been approved.
Can I ask why? As you are aware, personal privacy is a keystone of the Eugene promise.
Obviously, I disagree.
Key principles aren't important to you? If there's nothing to hide, there should be no fear.
The threat is real.
So you said last time when it was all part of your little experiment.
This time it is not the case.
You expect me to believe that? Oh, honestly.
Mrs Hobbs- I'm recommending the board call a halt to your experiment.
You can't be serious.
Rumours, fears, shots in the dark.
The residents are bonding.
They're-They're working together.
They're- How long until they start seeing spies everywhere? Before they turn on each other? History, Richard.
It's happened all before.
I'm trying to save this community and save money.
That would appeal to some of the board.
My staff are undertaking an assessment of happiness levels.
You'll receive a copy in due course.
Haere ra.
Bitch.
Hey.
Alec? Alec? Are you in here? Alec? So, what's next on the menu? Bit of a lie-down? Yeah, I could definitely sleep.
That's not quite what I was thinking.
It's probably work.
Hi.
Don't change shifts on me again, please.
It's all on.
We're outta here.
When's this? Uh, tonight.
Could we meet at yours later? Yeah, OK.
But only this once.
Someone's called in sick.
I'm going to have to go into work tonight.
Sorry, babe.
It's OK.
We do what we have to do.
Dickhead.
Oh.
Can I help you? Callie, it's me.
I'm sorry.
Who are you? Can I come in, Cal? No.
Oh, come on.
You must remember me? I'm afraid I don't.
If you don't mind, I'd like you to leave.
Oh, Cal.
Come on.
What the? You're calling me Cal as if I should know who you are.
- Is everything all right here? - We're fine.
No, we're not fine.
This person seems to have me confused with someone else.
You're not from around here.
Well, actually, I'm- Hey, mate! You beat me here.
You know this guy? Yeah, sure.
This is Pete.
He's the, uh, the new guy at work.
Ah.
I'll leave you to it.
Nice to meet you, Pete.
Same.
Roy.
Uh, this is Roy.
Roy, Roy.
Right, right.
Huh.
Why did you say you knew me? I Uh, Peter Mayberry, uh, year 13.
Ring any bells? We went to school together? See? I told you she wouldn't remember you.
Oh, I'm crushed.
We were going down the club, eh? You could at least show me around the place while I'm here.
Would you like a glass of beer? Sounds great.
Lovely place you've got.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Um, I'm sorry about the misunderstanding.
No problem.
I'm sorry for upsetting you.
No, no.
You caught me off guard.
That's all.
So, Peter, are you in HR as well? Uh, management.
Just started.
Great.
Mum! Oh, excuse me.
I'd better see what she wants.
Yeah.
That's my Cal.
What the hell are you doing? - I thought if I saw her, it'd come back.
- I told you that- Look, you can't just wipe someone's whole life away.
You can't.
Who's that? That's Becky.
No, it's not.
- That is not Becky.
- We'll talk- No, you cannot go to the park on your own.
I'll be fine.
No, darling.
Not at the moment.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Becky, this is Dad's workmate, Peter.
We'll head to the club now - have a hit at the driving range.
I thought you'd given up golf? No, uh, I-I still keep a hand in.
Yeah.
Cheers.
Thanks, love.
Oh, uh, I'll catch you later.
Bye, Callie.
Bye.
Where'd that little girl come from? She's my real daughter.
Uh, her name used to be Hannah.
Uh-huh.
Well, where's my Becky? I don't know.
Did Recall ever mention about taking children? Yeah.
They're big on that.
Putting them back with their real families if But not Becky.
I mean, she went on holiday with Leela.
Well, that's what they do.
When kids go missing, uh, Eugene makes everyone think that they're away on holiday, student exchange, medical reasons- No, no, no.
No way.
Then they come back again, only it's not really them.
I know Becky.
She is my daughter.
Like Callie thinks I'm her husband? Christian thinks I'm his dad.
I was there when he was born.
And Becky, too.
And me and Callie - we're like childhood' sweethearts.
And I am not making that up.
- But that-that's- - It's true.
I know that's how it feels, OK? I know.
You just-You can't go round making waves, OK? When I was here, I took everything for granted.
I never even knew what I had.
And now it's gone, all of it.
Shit.
Maybe you could still get it back.
Oh, how? If no one even knows me.
You got replaced once.
Well, it could happen again.
Hi.
Oh, hi.
Just looking for Alec.
He's gone out, I'm afraid.
Where to? You could try calling him.
Right, yeah.
I will.
Thanks.
Actually, you know what? I think I left some fishing gear here.
If you did, it'll be in the garage.
Alec's inner sanctum.
Doesn't like anyone poking round in there.
You know what? I was kinda planning a trip first thing.
Going to chuck a line in.
So, if I could? Sure.
Is that really such a good idea? What? Fishing at a time like this.
You're not worried about strangers? Oh, I think we're still safe enough in Waimoana.
Cute.
Yes.
Alec's been fixing it up for Becky.
I think he got a little carried away.
So, is it here? What? Your fishing gear.
No, it must be somewhere else.
Well, I'll let Alec know you dropped by.
Log in Mrs Hobbs.
Log in Mrs Hobbs.
File request.
What's up? I need more time.
Can you tell them? But it's been set up.
Another 24 hours, that's all.
It's important.
I'll see what I can do.
We shouldn't meet again.
What happened to Becky Ross? Who? Did Recall take the real Alec's daughter to make a place for Hannah? - Oh, they don't tell me everything.
- What do they tell you? They tell me how to get you out, and I say fine.
That's how it works.
How did Recall find me? - Someone got a message out.
- Well, can I meet them? Talk to them? They're dead.
There was a young woman who I met.
She was going to help me, and then I got- - Yeah, Tamar.
- Yeah.
My brother, Jed, was her partner.
They both died because of you.
So you should keep away, OK? OK.
I'm-I'm sorry.
But we should be safe, cos I don't have a chip inserted.
How'd you manage that? Uh, it's a long story.
But what do I do about the others when it comes time to leave? You may as well have this now.
Hold it to the back of the head and press on the green button until it beeps twice.
What is it? Is it, like, electromagnetic? Well, you tell me.
As far as I know, you invented it.
Thanks.
I'm a little busy right now, Gordy.
Alec Ross has no locator ID.
What did you say? I tracked him to his house.
According to my scanner he was in his garage, but he wasn't.
So where is he? I don't know.
I watched the house for two hours, but he didn't show.
And there was no call-out.
He's alive.
He's just not where his locator is.
You've only just worked this out? Yeah.
And now I'm letting you know.
Thank you, Gordy.
Where's your girlfriend? She's at my place.
Napping before her shift.
Let's just hope that she's alone.
It's unfortunate, but interfaces have malfunctioned before.
According to my source, his locator ID's still active.
It's just not where it should be.
Perhaps your source is the problem? I doubt that.
As soon as he's located, I want the device replaced immediately.
But that's impossible.
What did you say? I mean, it's a delicate neurosurgical procedure.
I'll need to arrange a specialist from Gaulton.
Then you'd better get on to it.
In the meantime, I want Alec Ross brought in and restrained.
On what grounds? He's a client, a citizen, not a prisoner.
Mm.
Yeah, you're right.
You're absolutely right.
You do what you normally do.
I will.
Good.
I'll take care of the rest.
You see, Waimoana's changing, and you need to be with me, not against me.
Yes, it is changing.
I just want us to be on the same side, Natasha.
Otherwise you'll find yourself finishing up in a shit hole crying yourself to sleep; remembering that you were this close to paradise, but you blew it.
I'll take care of it.
You see? We can be friends.
And don't go bothering the board and Mrs Hobbs about this, cos I'll know.
Hey, beautiful.
Good nap? Yeah.
Great.
I better get ready for work.
You OK? - Yeah, sure.
- You seem kind of jumpy.
Hormones and night shift - it's a deadly combo.
Hey, well, I cleared some space for your stuff.
I think we might need a nursery.
Great.
I'll serve up.
I'm not all that hungry.
Yeah, but you can't go to work on an empty stomach.
You're eating for two.
Yeah, OK.
Thanks.
Did you tell Peter to come for dinner? Oh, no.
He went back to his hotel.
Alec, now he'll think we're so rude! - He was fine about it.
- Still don't remember him.
Uh, well, he was a lot skinnier back then.
He had, uh, terrible acne.
And we were actual friends? Because I really didn't take to him.
Don't you dare tell him that! Oh, I won't.
There was something, I don't know, a bit odd about him.
He-He-He's had a bit of a hard time of it lately.
What kind of a hard time? He lost his wife, uh, recently.
Oh, that's terrible.
Why didn't you say? I couldn't.
Oh God.
I was so unsympathetic.
You have to bring him to dinner tomorrow night.
I'll mention it.
No, no.
You have to insist.
Tell him I don't know - he'll hurt my feelings otherwise.
Uh, your other strange friend was here today, too.
Who was that? Gordy.
Said he was looking for his fishing gear.
Alec? Alec, could you come in here, please? Uh, yeah.
I won't be long.
You have to come in right now.
Wellness are here.
Come on.
Uh, yeah.
This has to be a mistake.
No mistake, sir.
It's been scheduled.
What can be so urgent? - You'd have to ask Dr Collins about that? - It's dinner-time.
It's OK, Cal.
Uh, I'll take the car.
No need to waste your C credits, sir.
There's nothing I can do.
Gordy.
Shit! You were careless.
The surgeon's booked for tomorrow morning.
Tomorrow? Uh, tomorrow's too soon.
What difference does it make? I just need one more day.
Richard has the upper hand.
I was hoping we could find a way to neutralise him, but I'm sorry.
You know this means you'll be subject to a full memory download? - Can you access that database from here? - What? Well, they must store the original uploads.
Can you access them here? No.
No, that'd be too easy.
When an adjustment is necessary, we make a request.
Who to? It's Mrs Hobbs.
How could you possibly know that? Look, um, I'm never going to agree with you about Waimoana, but I know you're a good person.
You're far too good for this place.
You still don't appreciate what you've got here, do you? I'm not your enemy, OK? You've got until 11 tomorrow, am.
That's all I can do.
Fine.
There's something else.
Richard wanted you restrained, then changed his mind.
I assume he had good reason.
Thanks.
Hey.
Alec? You all right? Uh, fine.
It was all a mix-up.
Uh, those idiots.
Oh, I knew it.
So, shall I come and pick you up now? Uh, no.
They'll, uh, they'll drop me back.
Are you sure? Cos I might take Becky out.
She's been going stir-crazy cooped up in the house all day- It's-It's fine.
Uh, I-I'll see you a bit later on.
OK.
Love you.
This is awesome.
Yeah.
Yeah, isn't it? - Is everything all right there, Alec? - Oh, hey, Roy.
Uh, look, I-I don't want to sound like an alarmist or anything, but, uh, do you know them? No.
It's probably nothing.
Leave it to me.
- Hey.
- Alec, where have you been? - What's up? - Gordy knows something.
Yeah.
Him and Richard Foster.
Crap.
I think we can still make it, but not tonight.
Uh, there's been a complication.
So, what are you saying? That we're going to have to wait? I'm not leaving.
Never said you were.
What's the point? Callie doesn't know me.
Like I said, there could be a way to change things back the way they were, if you're serious about staying.
Will Callie remember me? Well, if I pull it off, yeah.
She'll think that you're her husband, Alec Ross.
But you know that won't make it true? It's good enough for me.
I hate to do this, but you have to go back to Gordy.
Now, be as normal as you can.
Distract him any way you can.
Whatever you do, just-just keep him away from here.
OK.
If I manage to do this, there's no turning back.
We'll have to leave.
Well, it's about time.
Yeah.
Hello, what's he forgotten? Wait, wait, wait, wait.
In there.
Gordy? What are you doing? - Shut up! Just shut up! I saw him leaving.
- Who? Don't.
I warned you.
I told you, stay away from him.
Nothing happened.
I didn't invite him.
We had a cup of coffee and a chat- No, no.
You were meant to be at work.
- I came here to pick up a cleaning- - Stop lying to me! Richard is using Ross as bait.
He's using you and he's using me.
I can still make this work.
I can protect you, but you can never see Ross again.
Never again.
I won't.
Give me your PeC.
- Gordy- - Give it to me! OK, let's go.
Jesus.
while we download and analyse that information and decide if an adjustment is called for.
Have you had dinner yet, dear? Not yet.
Well, let's see what we can find open, shall we? Log off Mrs Hobbs.
Log in Mrs Hobbs.
File request.
