Caprica s01e18 Episode Script

Previously on Caprica "Control your return to the soil," meaning plan your death.
I am Tauron.
It is important to me to die at the moment and time of my choosing.
Using Zoe Graystone's program, we will achieve Apotheosis.
We have martyrs placed all throughout the stadium.
They'll set off the initial blast.
The scanned avatars of our martyrs will be uploaded to our V-World heaven.
The servants of the one true God lifted to paradise in a grand Apotheosis.
A lot of good people are gonna die.
They're martyrs.
It's an honor.
They're not actually going to heaven.
Their scanned avatars are.
My brother Sam wants to arm the resistance on Tauron.
I must help him.
The truth, father, is that they are becoming a threat.
Quick and painless.
Let my brother go, all right? He's got a kid.
Wish I could.
Willie! Willie's gone.
No! I've stopped running from my parents, but I'm still not sure if I can trust them.
You'll find it's an exact replica of the home you knew, with every creature comfort at your fingertips.
I've been working on improved design models for a mechanical body, compact, agile.
And with skin.
Skin-job.
If you will.
Agent Duram convinced me to expose the Soldiers of the One.
This is the same model as Clarice's, but I've had it rigged.
Amanda, I need you to go back in there.
I need you to switch the holoband.
Bring me back the original.
My GDD contact tells me you have a spy in your house.
I asked for your CI's identity to prevent exactly what happened to that poor woman.
I hate to do this, but I've got to take your badge and gun.
East side of Orpheus park, I need an ambulance.
A John Doe here with a gunshot wound.
This isn't your band.
Amanda Graystone.
Frak! She's the one that's been spying on us the whole time.
Hey! Where's the band you stole from us? That's right, Clarice.
It's me.
The Graystones would have called the GDD by now.
We can't go back to our house.
Well, I don't hear any sirens.
- Do you hear any sirens? - Oh, come on! They're not gonna advertise themselves.
I don't care, but we have to find a way to get there.
Well, look, Graystone's had, like, 30 minutes to call the police.
They know where we live.
I know, but we just have to get to the computers.
Forget about the Zoe avatar program.
- It's over.
- Shh.
Move on, friend.
Gara Singh, director of the GDD.
But you know me as Arvo.
We'll be wearing these heart monitors in the arena.
When the explosion cuts the circuits, the avatars will automatically upload into the heaven construct.
And the world will come to understand that only the one true God can offer immortality.
Unless the Graystones make the holoband demo public.
I mean, they could be talking to the police right now.
Well, not so far.
I red-flagged any alerts containing keywords "Graystones" or "Atlas Arena" to be directed to me personally.
Won't that blow your cover? Doesn't matter.
14 hours till the jump.
I'll be off-world by then.
And you're gonna handle the Graystones? I mean, I'm loath to suggest violence except in the most extreme situations, but Don't tell me my job.
I have 4,712 agents who would throw themselves under a bus if I commanded it.
What are you gonna do? The world believes Zoe Graystone blew up the Maglev train.
Well, it turns out she was taking orders from her parents.
That's good.
The ground's all clear.
I want the entire system logged, scrubbed, and reconfigured.
How did she get in here? We're working on that.
Well, work faster.
Where are the police? We're not calling them until the lawyers arrive.
Oh, that's just as well.
Which ones did you call? All of them.
Unbelievable.
Watch your step.
Hey.
Hey, hey, hey! Don't touch that! I got a special team coming in for the U-87.
Sorry, sir.
This company is now in the business of extirpating Soldiers of the One.
Buy their politicians, acquire their assets, leak their secrets.
I want every toy they own bought, stolen, or smashed.
Understood.
Just try and think.
Anything that you can think of.
Just anything at all.
What is so special about that holoband? What is she planning on doing with it? Whatever it is, original Zoe didn't want me knowing about it.
I have these holes in my memory, these gaps.
Why would she do that? The day I was created, she said that I had a destiny separate from hers.
I think she was trying to protect me from whatever she was planning.
Oh, gods.
I'm sorry.
It's not your fault.
It's just so frustrating, being in this place and having all this power, and then in the real world I'm nothing but some stupid, broken robot.
No.
No, it's not your fault.
It's not your fault.
Sweetheart, without you, your dad and I would be dead.
Come on.
Oh! Hey, you don't rip off a holoband like that.
No outside communication allowed.
You are contaminating a crime scene.
Legal representation is on the way, so if we could just hold off on the charges until Amanda Graystone, Daniel Graystone, you are under arrest for high crimes against the people of Caprica.
Duram said the GDD was compromised.
Take them in, then search the house.
Bring me any holobands you find.
Get your hands off me.
Sir, what is this? A list of STO contacts.
That's interesting.
All right, you men, you're all witnesses.
You watch for any more evidence they try to plant.
Get them out of here! You're not gonna get away with this.
I'm tired of listening to this.
Get 'em out of here.
Director, please tell your men to stand down.
- Cyrus.
- Daniel, just take Take Amanda and get the hell out of here.
Put the gun down.
You are you are way over your head here.
Daniel, if you walk out of here with this man, you will disappear forever.
I've seen it back home.
These men will shoot you.
Daniel Graystone believes a lot of people are about to be murdered, and I believe him, so tell your men to stand the frak down! When you're executed, I will personally throw the switch.
All right, all right, Cyrus.
Okay, okay.
Okay, guns down.
Here.
Cyrus, why are you doing this? I know how this ends.
Go! Stop them! Thank you.
Thank you for coming.
He was a great kid.
I was teaching him triad at Goldie's.
Little bastard.
Little bugger was He was already learning to cheat.
I understand business.
But taking deliberate vengeance on a child? That is for animals.
Joseph, I've got my crew positioned around the block.
Anyone tries to touch you guys, he's going through me.
The Oeneris crew is with you too.
Any way you want to play it.
It's up to Yoseef.
You've got some ka-roo-as coming here.
I'm here under right of pen-thoss.
Surrendered my gun.
The Guatrau wishes to express his deep sorrow for your loss.
He will take no further action against you or your family.
- You're safe.
- Safe? No.
No, we're not safe.
No one's safe anymore.
We're not safe, because your father crossed the line! You touched my family, hmm? Hmm? How do you feel? How do you feel, Fiddy? Hmm? Sam, stop it.
Sam, no.
Not like this.
Come.
Pie-do-kto-noss.
Yoseef, you do know this was a horrible accident.
Willie was well-liked.
Whereas your father Are we looking at a war? Maybe.
People are angry about Willie.
That's just an excuse.
The real issue are the decisions your father's been making.
Yeah, the Tauron thing was a mistake.
Helping our people is more important than money.
The older generation, they don't always get that.
He's a stubborn old no-thoss.
I know.
But we can make it right.
Send some cash and robots back home, everybody cools off.
Unless, of course, you decide to make a bad situation worse.
Times are tough.
A war would destroy this family.
It would destroy your father.
Undoubtedly.
Many hardworking people will die.
Others will lose their livelihoods.
I know, I know.
And one small life isn't worth all that collateral damage, right? I don't like to think of it like that, but it's something to consider.
You know, in the space of a few months, I lost my wife, my daughter, and my son.
I want to sit down with the Guatrau.
He'll need assurances.
Of course.
I need something too.
Maybe we can help each other.
Think, sweetheart.
Wh where else could it be? Listen, touch down in Orpheus park, okay? Why? 'Cause I think the holoband's still there.
That's where Duram was shot.
If they think we have it, it's got to still be there.
All right, yeah.
You know where Orpheus park is? Yes, sir.
Daniel.
If we do find this thing, are we gonna be able to use it to get to Zoe? No.
We can't go anywhere they'd expect to see us, even virtually.
It's too dangerous.
God, she must be going out of her mind in V-World.
How are we gonna get her out of there? We'll get her out.
- Down here? - Yeah.
That's where Duram fell.
How are we gonna find this? Don't underestimate me.
It's a bad bet.
Now what? I can't interact here.
It must be some kind of fixed demonstration.
The environment is Atlas Arena.
It's C-Bucs versus the Delphi Legion.
People are sitting down.
They're making this gesture.
They're They're monotheists.
There's something under their seats.
- What? - Gods.
What? They just They just blew up the arena.
I'm someplace new in V-Space.
People are appearing, praising God.
Praise the one true God.
It's the same people that set off the bombs.
They're talking about eternal life.
At though they were in heaven.
What's happening? Zoe's avatar program.
I think I think this is what it was for.
What for? Some sort of recruitment program for the monotheists.
- What does that mean? - Come on.
Come on.
What do you mean? The Delphi Legion only have one game with the C-Bucs this year.
- What day is it today? - Tuesday? Why? It's today, in about eight hours.
- What? - Come on, come on.
Okay.
Hello? Yes.
I'm calling to report a bomb threat at Atlas Arena.
How do I know? I just know, okay? That area is not safe, and it needs to be shut down.
It doesn't matter who I am.
- Shut down the arena! - Come on, let's go.
Let's go.
I don't like this sort of thing.
I know you don't, but this is the way that it needs to happen.
Look, they're saying that Graystone is a terrorist.
It's all over the news.
It's still a useful tool.
Your avatar will be with Yoseef's avatar.
You'll be face-to-face, but he won't be able to hurt you.
We could use the telephone.
You once told me never to negotiate unless you could see the other person's eyes.
I believe I was six.
I don't need to negotiate.
I've done nothing outside of my rights as Guatrau.
It's the Adamas.
You loved them, you indulged them, and you don't want to admit that maybe that's why they overstepped.
Ka-lohss, ka-lohss.
Show me how the stupid machine works.
Sir.
Sir.
Local cops routed an anonymous call to us.
Bomb threat at Atlas Arena.
Tell them it's a GDD situation.
We have it under control.
Sir, are you sure? Just do it.
You can move, Guatrau.
Just tell yourself to move your body.
Looks just like Goldie's.
Feels real too.
It's not natural.
It's for your safety.
I don't fear you, Joseph.
Willie was like a grandson to me.
I know.
He was my last remaining child.
It's gonna take a lot to make this right.
'Cause this time, you're not following your rule.
You're trying to bury this to protect the business, not the family.
You've been putting the wrong things first for a long time now.
You're grieving.
But you should watch your tone.
Now, let's talk about a way to A way to Ah Guatrau? Make this quick.
A knife! Let me do it my way.
Give him a knife! You know what this is, right? Please Ah ih uh eh! E-kay-no ain pro Willie.
You were going to die anyway, pa-tair.
This way, the family goes on.
Thank you, Guatrau.
Singh sure did his job.
The Graystones are taking all the heat on tv for this right now.
Glory is upon us.
I envy you.
Envy me? Why would you envy me? You're not going.
I can't.
Nestor never created an avatar for me and, um, he's dead now.
That's convenient.
To lead us into paradise is a privilege.
It's a privilege that I'm having to deny myself because God has chosen a different path for me.
I'm gonna use a regular holoband, and I'll be there to greet you when you arrive.
- Go with God.
- I will.
Proudly.
And he will be my light.
God is powerful, Clarice! His light shines on everything.
It shines on you.
I assure you that the department will not rest until we have apprehended Just weeks after Amanda Graystone's stunning confession about her daughter's complicity in the Maglev bombing, GDD director Gara Singh has dropped an even bigger bombshell, charging both Dr.
Graystone and her famous husband with being the true planners of that deadly attack.
Clarice.
Taxi! Hey! Where to? Downtown, please.
One Caprica Plaza.
Okay.
The evidence against the Graystones is irrefutable.
Let me assure you that apprehending these dangerous terrorists is our top priority.
We will not rest Do you mind changing over to the wireless? I'd love to get some pyramid scores.
No problem.
Fans arriving early, two hours before the jump.
They're just so eager to see their C-Bucs win again, Steve.
- Got a light? - Yeah.
Frak me.
How are you, doctor? I'm sorry.
I can't help you.
The GDD is all over the building.
You're a terrorist! Today.
Tomorrow I'll be myself again.
I'm keeping a careful list of everyone who refused to help me in my hour of need.
It's not a list you want to be on, doctor.
You really don't.
Are you going to help us? - Okay.
- Very good.
Now, let me walk you through it.
You go to the research and development lab in the main building.
I set it up so your key card will get you access.
Once inside, you'll go immediately to my personal office and pull a hard drive from my desk.
You go to one of the restricted terminals.
And enter Y-R-25 Zeta-Theta-Epsilon.
Y-R-25-Zeta-Theta-Epsilon.
And once you're in there, access the U-87 synthetic vision systems And you bring it immediately back to me.
You got it? Good.
You can control the robots with those? He has to be within 400 meters of the target, and a clear line of sight with double the range.
So, uh I'll see you guys later.
You're good? I'm good.
Nice meeting you.
Take care.
Hey.
Hey, hey! Not so fast.
We're not quite done.
And one of these.
How much is that? It was good doing business.
Enjoy.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Okay.
Here, give me those.
The countdown is on here at raucous Atlas Arena as all Caprica awaits the tip-off of this momentous game between the Delphi Legion and our own Caprica city Buccaneers.
The players are set.
The stakes are high, ladies and gentlemen.
Buckle up.
It all comes down to this, folks.
There's a beautiful overhead shot of the stadium and the field.
Today's coverage provided by the Graystone blimp.
This is Steve Bahara along with Abasi Lo and we are here at Atlas Arena awaiting the start of the pyramid match between the Cap City Buccaneers and the Delphi Legion.
I'm sorry, you're not allowed in here.
I said you're not Sir.
Ma'am.
It's not what you think.
And we're not terrorists.
You know the whole worlds are lookin' for you I can't just What they're saying about us isn't true.
I'm not gonna let you guys hurt people.
We're not terrorists.
We're not terrorists.
Don't hey.
Ow.
Ow.
- Okay? - Yeah.
Come on, Drew.
You gotta come through for me here.
Will you please rise for the singing of our national anthem? Caprica Let us celebrate Raise our heads Despite the weight And all her joys We exude Caprica Abides Caprica Let us persevere Shield ourselves Zoe.
What is this place? This is a blessing.
No, this is a this is a miracle that you should come here at the very moment that things are gonna change.
Bless you.
Praise you! What did you do to my parents? I was talking to my mother, and she was ripped away Shh, shh, I'm sorry, but the timing is very precise.
Caprica Let us persevere Shield ourselves From doubt and fear And all the sorrows There they are.
I didn't see that on the schedule, but that's spectacular.
Caprica Let us persevere This is this is unprecedented.
A marine squadron has landed at Atlas Arena.
Look like military troopers.
Robots of some sort.
Okay.
Now starting to move into a, uh, formation.
What are they waiting for? They need to lock on their targets.
Come on.
Hurry up, Daniel.
Fire.
Oh, my gods, they're shooting at the crowd! They're here, Zoe.
Welcome, all of you.
How many people did you kill? That's incidental.
- Incidental? - Heaven is what matters.
If one man is resurrected, that will change the worlds.
If people believe they'll go heaven no matter what, they'll lose control over themselves.
Why would you say that? Because nothing anyone does on the twelve worlds will matter to them.
Did you get them all? One more.
You can't do that! Get the door.
Security! Open up! The real worlds will turn into a game Like New Cap City.
People will kill, rape, destroy.
They'll be forgiven and blessed and go to heaven anyway.
That's blasphemy.
I know my purpose now.
Hurry up! I still can't find the last target.
Zoe No! - Security! - Got him.
It's what God wants.
I am God! No! Okay! Put your hands up! The one true God will drive out the many! So say we all! Come on, bring that up.
Did you ever anticipate Cylons just being integrated into society this quickly? No.
I I think it took the event at the arena to to galvanize the people.
I think once they saw how much the monotheists hated us and how powerful they had become and then saw the Cylons out there protecting us, I think It all changed in an instant.
Then let's look at the future then.
'Cause I'm hearing talk about Cylon butlers, Cylon nurses.
How long before my niece Candace comes home with her Cylon fiance to introduce to the family? Well, I think people are smart enough to realize that as useful as they are, Cylons are simply tools, nothing more.
And to forget that, to blur the distinction between man and machine and attribute human qualities is folly.
There's no way to know what lies ahead really.
This technology, it has taken us those last few steps to the mountain pass, but beyond it's undiscovered country.
O Jupiter, to you I pray on the anniversary of my son William's death.
For he was not yet a man, he chose a man's death.
William Was a proud Tauron and a good boy.
Our father's name Lives on in another way now.
Bill You're named after your brother.
This is our tradition.
You will do the rest.
As we are from the soil, so shall we return.
So say we all.
- Yeah! - Yeah! Are you alive? The simple answer might be you are alive because you can ask that question.
You have the right to think and feel and yearn to be more because you are not just humanity's children.
You are God's children.
We are all God's children.
I'm planning a trip to Gemenon to visit the blessed mother herself to plead for divine recognition of the differently sentient.
And I have every confidence that I'll depart Gemenon with a powerful new ally.
I've heard enough.
Your blessed reverence.
Hello, Clarice.
I really think you should kneel.
In the real world, you have bodies made of metal and plastic.
Your brains are encoded on wafers of silicon.
But that may change.
In fact, there is no limit on what you may become.
No longer servants, but equals.
Transferring the program now.
Not slaves or property but living beings with the same rights as those who made you.
I am going to prophecy now And speak of one who will set you free.
The day of reckoning is coming.
The children of humanity shall rise And crush the ones who first gave them life!
