All language subtitles for Mr.Robot.S02E01-E02.720p.BluRay.x264.ShAaNiG-SHD

KRISTA: What is it
about society that
disappoints you so much?

ELLIOT: Sometimes I dream
of saving the world.

Saving everyone from
the invisible hand.

The one that controls
us every day without
us knowing it.

DARLENE: What if
this all went away?

The city. The money.
All of it.

MR. ROBOT: Hey, kiddo.

Exciting time in
the world right now.

Exciting time.

MR. ROBOT:
Tell me about your father.

ELLIOT: He had leukemia.
Made me swear to
never tell anyone.

Finally, I got so worried,
I told my mom.

I tried to hug him,
tell him I'm sorry,

shoved me so hard,
I fell backwards
out the window.

I was eight years old.

If you don't take this deal,
you'll become like me.

Losing everyone's respect...

I gave up everything
for this case.

I don't want you to.

I'm not working there.
They killed my mother.

TERRY: If you want
to change things,

perhaps you should
try from within.

ELLIOT: That would erase...

MR. ROBOT:
All the debt we owe them.

Every record of
every credit card, loan, and
mortgage would be wiped clean.

What do we all do now?

Guys! This isn't about
what we'll do tomorrow.

This is about what we did.

They're free because of us.

ELLIOT: Jesus.
What did I do?

I told you we shouldn't
have done this.

JOANNA: I'm a little
concerned for Tyrell.

Because he was acting
very strange last I saw him.

TYRELL:
I know you're behind it.

Fsociety. The server.
Colby. Allsafe.

You're the one constant
in a sea of variables.

MR. ROBOT: No matter what
anyone tries to do,
I will never leave you.

I will always be right here.
Do you understand that?

They're gonna try and
get rid of me again,

and I need you
to not let them.

Listen to me.
I will never leave you.
(PANTING)

I will never
leave you alone again.

ELLIOT: I am Mr. Robot.

I've always told you
we'd end up working
together, Elliot.

But still,

I have to know.

Why did you do it?

I wanted to save the world.

Why this mask?

It's a bit silly,
isn't it?

(PHONE VIBRATING)

Wellick.

I see.

I understand.

James... Yes.

Yes, I'm aware of
Mr. Goddard's request,

but it needs to be
removed this moment.

Can you escalate it?

(KEYS CLACKING)

Thank you, James.

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING)

TYRELL: It should be ready.

What is it?

It's happening.

It's almost
as if...

Something's
come alive.

(GLASS SHATTERING)

MR. ROBOT: Oh, my God.
MAGDA: This is your fault!

It's your fault!
MR. ROBOT: I'm sorry!

I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry!

MAGDA: What did you do,
you son of a bitch?

He's bleeding!
MR. ROBOT: It was an accident.

MAGDA: God says there
are no accidents!

MR. ROBOT: Son, son,
please talk to me.

Talk to me, please.
MAGDA: God help us,
he's bleeding.

MR. ROBOT: Oh, my God.

Son, son, wake up.
Wake up!

MAGDA: God, is he okay?
Ask if he's okay!

MR. ROBOT: Can't you see
he's not responding, Magda?

MAGDA: It was your fault.
MR. ROBOT: It was an accident.

MAGDA: God says there
are no accidents.

MR. ROBOT:
Please call an ambulance!

Call an ambulance!

(MONITOR BEEPING)

DOCTOR: As you can see
by the images,

everything appears
to be normal,

which is good news

because there were no lesions
from the scan,

no hemorrhaging or bleeding,

mild concussion,
a few stitches.

The forearm,
however, is broken,
so that will require a cast.

MAGDA: And how much
will that be?

DOCTOR: Excuse me?

MAGDA: How much
will the co-pay be?

DOCTOR: Well, that's
something you need to discuss
with the billing department.

MR. ROBOT:
We'll talk about that later...
MAGDA: Shut up.

You've lost your job.
We have no money.

How are we supposed
to pay for this

on top of all
your other bills?

Don't touch me.

MR. ROBOT: I told you,
there won't be any bills.

DOCTOR: Mr. and Mrs. Alderson,
please,

I'm going to have to ask you
to step outside for a second.

I'd like to talk
to Elliot alone.

(DOOR CLOSES)

DOCTOR: Elliot.

Elliot, I want you
to know that you are
going to be just fine.

Now, that was quite
a spill you took today,

but I promise,
you have a long
and healthy life ahead of you.

Now, Elliot, there
are just a few questions
that I need to ask you

and anything you tell me
will be between us...

(CONTINUES DISTORTED
AND INDISTINCT)

(MUSIC PLAYING)

Time to get up.

ELLIOT: Today started
just like yesterday

and the day before that
and the day before that

and every day
for the last month,

a loop,
my perfectly
constructed loop.

This is going to be
affecting our economy

in ways that are
extraordinarily significant.

The FBI announced today,
and we can confirm,

that Tyrell Wellick
and fsociety engaged
in this attack.

They caused a lot of damage,
and we will respond.

We will respond
proportionally,

and we will respond
in a place and time
that we choose.

That's not something
that I will announce
at a press conference.

ELLIOT: At 8:00 a.m.
my daily program begins

by having breakfast
with my friend, Leon.

There's this one episode
where they go to
this Chinese restaurant,

and they're just
waiting for a table
the entire time.

Like, they don't even
eat at the end, bro.

ELLIOT: He just
discovered Seinfeld.

Maybe I'm
overthinking it, though.

ELLIOT: And talks
way too much about it.

It's really fucking with him.

It's really fucking with me.

ELLIOT: But
it's perfect for me.

I don't have to say anything.
I can just listen.

God, man,
that Kramer dude,

if I knew him in real life,
I'd knock his ass out.

ELLIOT: At 10:00 a.m.
I help out around the house.

More broadly, though,
this points to the need

for us to work with
the international community

to start setting up
some very clear
rules of the road.

Right now it's
sort of the Wild West.

ELLIOT: At 12:00 p.m.
I have lunch with Leon.

And then
there's this one where

they're stuck in
a garage the whole time.

Like, what?

That's not a TV show, bro.

Where's the story?

It just makes no sense.

(MAN GRUNTS)

ELLIOT: At 2:00 p.m.
we'll check out
a basketball game.

Hot Carla, the local pyro,
is usually there.

She's become like
my personal totem.

Oh! Oh!
LEON:
Three points, bitch.

ELLIOT: I still
don't understand
why people like sports.

They get so emotional
over the weirdest things.

But I do see
the beauty in the rules,

the invisible
code of chaos

hiding behind
the menacing face of order.

At 4:30 p.m. I clean up
around the house again.

PRESIDENT OBAMA:
There hasn't been anything
like this in the past.

That's part of what makes
this issue of cybersecurity
so urgent.

ELLIOT: At 6:00 p.m.
I have dinner with Leon.

Though maybe I just
need to make peace with it,

you know what I'm saying?

As you can tell,
we eat most meals together.

Like, maybe that's
the show's point,

that shit is just pointless,
you know?

Like, life, love,
and the meanings therein.

I'll tell you,
the human condition

is a straight-up tragedy, cuz.
Word.

Like I said,
I never have to talk,

and the repetition
is good for me now.

It keeps my regimen intact.

WOMAN: Overwhelm me.

ELLIOT: Two days a week
I go to a church group.

I don't get
the rules here either,

but I need to keep
socializing myself.

It's good for me.

Besides,
these people seem normal.

Amen.
Amen.

PRESIDENT OBAMA:
Do not get into a pattern

in which you
are intimidated

by these kind of
criminal attacks.

America knows
how to solve problems,

and when we work together,
we can't be stopped.

A new future is
ready to be written.

ELLIOT: I've been
keeping a journal.

It's the only way
to keep my program running
like it's supposed to.

See you in the morning.

ELLIOT: And then I go to bed.

My mom has no computer
or Internet access
to tempt me into the night.

All that's left for me is just
ordinary analog sleep

ending the day's loop.

You might not think
it's a way to live,
but why not?

Repeating
the same tasks each day

without ever having
to think about them,

isn't that what
everybody does?

Keep things on repeat

to go along with
their NCISes and Lexapro.

Isn't that where
it's comfortable?

In the sameness?

(CLOCK TICKING)

Why your mom?

Why her specifically?

She's the strictest
person I know.

But you've attributed a lot
of your childhood trauma...

Better the devil you know
than the devil
you don't, right?

Do you feel alone?

Darlene comes by
sometimes.

Is there anything you miss
about your old life?

It doesn't matter
even if I did.

Why would you say that?

'Cause I can't
trust myself back there.

Why do you think you
can't trust yourself?

I'd like you to respond
to my question, please.

Elliot.

It took a lot for me
to talk to you
after what you did,

but I agreed
with the condition

that you were going
to be more open with me.

I was very clear
when we discussed...

It's not that I
don't trust myself.

I don't trust him.

ELLIOT: Hello again.

Yes, I'm talking
to you this time.

I'm sure you wanted to hear
what I told Krista back there,

but I'm not ready
to trust you yet,
not after what you did.

You kept things from me,
and I don't know

if I can tell you
secrets like before.

Friends are supposed
to be honest with each other,

and you weren't.

It's gonna take a while
to rebuild this relation...

MR. ROBOT:
Talking to your friend again?

(EXHALES)

I thought we were
done with all that.

Here.

Check that out.

Lots of nicer
friends in there for you.

(CHUCKLES)

MR. ROBOT: We can't stay here.

There's more work
to be done.

Our revolution needs a leader,

and what are we
doing instead? (SCOFFS)

Journaling.

Che Guevara is throwing up
in his grave right now.

You think this is
gonna get rid of me?

I am not to be
gotten rid of.

This zombie act
you're pulling?
It don't work on us.

This control you
think you have?

It's an illusion.

You want my attention?

Tell me what I want to know.

Tell me where Tyrell is.

I can't do that.

Then go...

(SIGHS)

Are you done?

(MR. ROBOT SIGHING)

What's next on
this roller coaster
of a regimen, needlepointing?

(WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY)

(MACHINE WHIRRING)

MAN ON TV: It is not
hyperbole to say we're in
a grave financial situation.

All of this cautionary
sentiment out there,

it's not just
Wall Street hoopla.

The more I talk about it,
the more terrified I become.

Fortunately,
the original plans
put in place were ineffective.

MAN: Bitcoin for sale.
Buy while it's low.

MAN ON TV: Most experts agree
that this is not
just a crisis,

but a very dire one.

Something absolutely
needs to be done.
(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

Even though the European Union
has been denying that
it could affect them,

this week we saw
that they were wrong.

The banks cannot lend money
that they don't have.

So the economy is
at a standstill.

(ALARM BLARING)

(ALARM STOPS)

And I'm just the messenger.

I am telling you,
folks, this is what
they don't want you to hear,

because a union strike
on the Comet natural gas plant

will cause an energy shortage

the likes of which
has never been seen
in the northeast.

Without literal power,
we will have no power.

This is part of a strategy
to declare economic war
on this country,

and they know it,
they know exactly
what they are doing,

and 2015 will be
known as the year

that America,
this great nation,

swapped democracy
for dictatorship.

Somebody who can

because this "crisis"
has happened before.

Hello?
(CLASSICAL MUSIC RISES)

MAN: (ON TV) Why don't you
tell your viewers about
the Weimar Republic?

Because the similarities,
the parallels between them
are disturbing.

(ALARM BLARING)

(BEEPING)

(CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY)

(ALARM CONTINUES BLARING)

Hello?

That's right.

Stop!

(ALARM CONTINUES BLARING)

Well,
what am I supposed to do?

I mean, nothing is working.

Unplug what?

Everything is
inside the walls.

That's how it was installed
when I ordered
the smart house package.

(ALARM BLARING)

Now the alarm is going off,
and it's freezing.

It's below 40.

I have a place in Greenwich,
but you don't expect me to...

How long is it gonna take
before this all gets fixed?

(SCOFFS)

(ALARM CONTINUES BLARING)

(EVERYTHING CEASES)

MAN: The tracking on
her phone is working,

and she's headed north
as we speak.

How long you think
she's gonna stay away for?

DARLENE: Long enough.

The collective result
of these attacks could be
a cyber Pearl Harbor,

physical destruction
and the loss of life,

and create a new,
profound sense
of vulnerability.

(DOOR OPENS)

As director of the CIA
and Secretary of Defense...

I hope you don't mind
I came.

Something wrong?

It's good
to see you, Gideon.

You, too.

I know we didn't leave things
on the best of terms.

Is it true?
What I heard about Allsafe?

There is no Allsafe.

I've had to furlough everyone.

I'm hoping to get
up and running again,

but everyone's
telling me it's over.

MR. ROBOT: Gee, I wonder
whose fault that is.

Was that you or me?

I'm getting all mixed up,
I can't recall.

GIDEON:
Let me get to my point.

The FBI believes that
I was behind the hack

or complicit in some way.

I've given them all
the evidence I can.

I've cooperated with them
every step of the way,

but they still
keep coming at me.

They don't trust me.

In fact, I think they might be
hacking my email.
I know someone is.

MR. ROBOT: And now
you're wondering

who that someone is,
aren't you?

There are logins
from times and machines
I don't recognize.

Because if it was me,
then that means it was you.

How about it, huh?

Could you live with yourself
knowing that
you framed Gideon?

I keep changing the password,
but it still...
(GROANS)

Elliot?

What's wrong?
Go ahead, tell him.

Tell him that you're slowly
descending into madness.

Stop.
What? Stop what?

MR. ROBOT:
There are only so many times

before my bullets
finally penetrate that
thick skull of yours,

and as the blood trickles out,
so goes any sense of reason.

Round and round we go,
you not knowing what
you did or didn't do,

our infinite loop of insanity.

GIDEON: If you know
anything at all,

or if there's anything
you can do to help me...

I need you to.

I can't help you.

Are you really gonna let him
take the fall for this?

Look at him,
a scared, small animal.

Well, that's...
That's unacceptable.

Now he's doing
what all small animals do
when they're scared,

pretend they're
bigger and scarier.

Look, if you're not gonna
do anything about this,

I'm afraid you've
left me no choice

but to go to them
with what I know,

which, given the things I know
about the day you left,

it's pretty damning.

Now,
I'm asking you one last time

to do the right thing.

He does have a point.

He does know a lot,
perhaps too much.

I wonder if I sliced
open his neck right now,

would it be me doing it,
or would it be you?

No.
Yes.

I am going to go to them.

I'm going to tell
them everything.

Do you understand, Elliot?
Everything.

Truth is, Elliot,
it doesn't matter.

You start adding
up all the choices
you've been making,

they all add up to one thing.

You add up to one thing...

Me.

(GASPS)

What's going on
over there?

(GROANS)

(CHAIR RATTLING)

(SIGHS)

ELLIOT: I'm not gonna lie,
Gideon got to me,

but now is when I need
the regimen the most.

After all,
that's the whole reason
for the routine,

to stay as sane as possible
until he's gone,

and once he's gone,

I can finally be
the real me again.

LEON: You know,
not just that it's pointless,

but maybe it just
means nothing, you know?

Like Costanza says,
"A cold, random universe."

Bro, what's up with the...

Nothing, man.

Gideon's gonna rat you out.

He probably already has.

Hey, you can't ignore this.

They have eyes on you.

This is how they work you.

I'm not gonna change my mind.

Sticking to my regimen.

Hey, I am not some
tumor to be excised,
do you understand?

The opposite.

I'm the organ vital
to your existence.

Now, if you insist
on keeping this up,

I'm gonna go from
annoyed to hurt,

and, kiddo, trust me,
you do not want to
hurt my feelings.

ELLIOT: How do
I take off a mask
when it stops being a mask,

when it's as much
a part of me as I am?

(PEOPLE CHEERING)

ELLIOT: We keep fighting.

Like the world we unmasked,
we will find our
true selves again.

Maybe after wiping
away the thick, grimy film

of Facebook friend requests
and Vine stars

we can all see
the light of day.

I know we haven't
talked in a while.

Maybe you only trust me
about as much as
I trust you right now,

but I'm gonna ask you
to have hope for me anyway.

Just, please, have hope.

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

(SNIFFLES)

(BREATHING HEAVILY)

We are in a war,
and we are on
the losing side of it.

We are on our knees
with guns to our heads,

and they are
picking us off one by one.

Susan Jacobs,
the general counsel at E Corp.

You want to know
what her nickname is
inside the company?

Madam Executioner,

not just
because she could kill

any lawsuit
filed against them,

but because those lawsuits
usually involved deaths.

These are the cowards
we are dealing with.

(GLASS SHATTERS)

We have been on our knees
for too long,

and it's time to stand up.

Make it
a four-hour SDR if necessary.

Take surveillance
detection stops.

Go into pharmacies.

Run errands.
Disrupt data points.

No one takes the same
route back here twice.

I don't want anyone
burning this location.

Where is everyone else?

Don't know.

They were always half in.

What you're doing here,
Darlene, and what
you're saying?

I mean, you sounded
like George W. Bush,
for crying out loud.

Okay,
first of all, that's low.

Secondly, give me some credit.

The speech is bullshit,
but it works.

It riles them up.

Yeah, to what end though?

You know, sawing off balls,
making protest signs?

We were more than that.

I mean, you know,
we accomplished something.

We took them down.

Then why does it feel
like they're still winning?

That what we did made
it worse, not better?

You know I'm right.

We didn't finish them off.

That's all there is to it.

People everywhere came out
to support us, Mobley,

and right now
they need to know
we haven't given up,

that we meant what we said
about changing the world.

Don't be half in
like the others.

This thing we started,
it deserves more than that.

Have you, uh, seen Elliot?

That's not important.

(KEYS CLACKING)

This is everything right now.

(CHATTER)

WOMAN 1: Absolutely unfair,
madam, absolutely unfair.

We were done
with our payments.

WOMAN 2: Ma'am,
we are doing our best here.

At this moment
we cannot verify

that you've paid
all your payments.

Absolutely ridiculous. I have.

I have all my
bills right here.
I was never late on one,

and I also have copies
of the checks that I sent...

People have been
forging paper records.

We haven't set up a system
to verify these
sorts of claims.

It took me three weeks
to get this appointment,
madam.

Now you're telling me
you can't help me?

What kind of business is this?

I've been responsible
for the last 20 years
in paying off my home.

Where's your accountability?

Yet,
if the tables were turned,

you would have kicked me
out of my own house.

You know what?
Cancel my account.

I'm done doing business
with you crooks.

You deserve what
you're getting.

Ma'am, I can't say for sure
we can give you all your money

if you close right now.

Unbelievable.

I know what I have.
I just want to cancel.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

(DIALING ON PHONE)
(DIAL TONE RINGING)

It's on my computer, too.
I have the IT guy

(DOOR OPENS)

(SIGHS)

Sorry I'm late. I was coming
from my place in Greenwich.

I was on the phone
with the FBI all night.

We can't confirm the sender,

but the email we
received is authentic,

more than likely
the same hackers
from the ransomware.

SCOTT: Unbelievable.

What are their demands again?

$5.9 million.

(SCOFFS)

$5.9 million to
be delivered to

Battery Park City,
9:00 p.m. tonight,

no police.

If we want to pay the ransom,
the FBI will not sanction it.

We cannot negotiate
with these people.

Our techs are looking into it.

We'll find a way to decrypt it
and get the system...

How long?

Five days, tops.

Five days for
our banking system
to be down?

(CHUCKLES) That's a lot of
money down the drain.

I don't even want to
mention the optics.

We can't afford
this hack right now,

and frankly, I think
we can find $5.9 million
in between our couch cushions.

It's nothing.

My opinion as general
counsel is to pay it.

What's this other
request they've made?

"You must send
one of your chiefs

"and no one else?"

I think they meant one
of our chief officers.

(LAUGHING)
This is a joke.

Did they really
expect one of us
to go out there?

Hmm? What are we
talking about here?

These people are terrorists,
pure and simple.

Unfortunately,
I have to agree
with Scott on this.

It's risky.

We have no idea
what these guys
are capable of.

So you think we
should pay the ransom,

but you don't want
any of us to do it?

We can get one of our security
officers to go undercover.

Yes, and risk all of this
blowing up in our faces.

No.

If we're going to
even consider doing this,

we shouldn't give them
any reason to do more damage.

(SIGHS)

I'll do it.

I'm Chief Technology Officer.

I qualify.

I'll do it.

If we're gonna
pay these bastards,

I want to be
the one that faces them.

We're coming.

No, wait.
It's too risky.
We need to fly in.

Wait.

Please sign here.

What is this?

Grab the biker.

No, no, no, they haven't

We should have our

Should we come in?
Are you all right?

There's no way.

We've already

It would be irresponsible
if the feds sent more.

And we're not going
to ask the government
to pony up the cash.

How do you burn through
that kind of money
in 30 days anyway?

You have
something right there.

Finally,
you're seeing my point.

No, no, on your face.

The point is, Phillip,

we've already given you
our burst of cash on hand.

We can't give you any more.

Well, we'll sell
the T-bills to the Chinese,

and that money in return
will be used as a loan
for our company.

Look,
the real recovery program
is months from being done.

The public
is hoarding cash.

The housing market
is grinding to a halt.

The big three are on
the verge of collapse.

Everyone at the commission
needs to see results

within the next three weeks

before we can
do anything else.

Look, rebuilding
our database is the only
solution to this problem.

This is not my opinion.

These are the facts,
ladies and gentlemen.

Now, I've cooperated
with you on every level.

I even have the goddamn FBI
working out of my offices.

Janet, Mary, Jack, please.

Tell me you didn't ask me
to fly down all the way to DC

just so you could, what,
hear yourselves complain?

You've got to resign.

We have no other options.

The President
can't go to Congress
with a bailout right now.

In the fallout of
the Great Depression,

FDR closed all the banks
for a bank holiday,

and then
he reopened them
in stages

when they were
reported to being sound.

Later, historians discovered
what we in this room now know,

that those reports,
they were mostly lies.

Nevertheless, it worked.

It worked because
the public believed

the government had
everything under control.

You see,

that is the business model
for this great nation of ours.

Every business day
when that market bell rings,

we con people into
believing in something,

the American dream,
family values.

Could be freedom fries
for all I care.

It doesn't matter as
long as the con works

and people buy and sell
whatever it is
we want them to.

If I resign,

then any scrap of confidence
the public is
already clinging onto

will be destroyed,

and we all know

a con doesn't work
without the confidence.

If this was the best idea
you could come up with
for a win,

I shouldn't be
the one resigning.

I have to head
back to New York.

Let me know when
you've locked up the votes,

and wipe your goddamn mouth.

(DOOR CLOSES)

(GASPS)

Well?

You moved.

And?

(SCOFFS)

Now I'm gonna punish you.

(MUSIC PLAYING VIA SPEAKERS)

(CLEARS THROAT)

(SIGHS)

You know, usual,
coffee, black,

turkey sandwich
on whole wheat,

lettuce, mayo,
muenster cheese.

MAN: Already working on it.

You always take
good care of me, Ahmed.

(CHUCKLES)
How's the wife doing?

She's good,
she's good, thank you.

Oh, I haven't
seen her in a while.
Where is she these days?

Our daughter is sick.
Oh, that right?

That's too bad.

Now, which one
is she again?
Sally.

The young one, right?

Yeah.

Such a pretty name.

Now, is that
traditionally
an Iranian name, or...

MAN: Come on, lady,
I'm in a rush here.

Jesus H, all right.

God, calm down.

Well, I guess
I should pay up, Ahmed,

before I get
lynched over here.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

(SPEAKING FARSI)
(BELL CHIMING)

Am I right?

Um...

And this?

(DOOR KNOCK)

WOMAN: DiPierro,
he's waiting for us.

Yup.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

(BEEPS)

(DOOR BUZZES)

ELLIOT: When you look closely
at the seams
between order and chaos,

do you see
the same things I see?

The strain, the tears,

the glimpses of truth
hidden underneath.

Why do they fight
so desperately to mask
what they are?

Or is it that they
become who they are
when they put on the mask?

Sometimes I wonder
what you hide behind,
my silent friend.

What mask do you wear?

Or are you just as afraid
as the rest of them?

Me?

Am I afraid?

Nah, man.

I'm different.

MAN: Hey, dipshit,

can't you see
we need the ball?

This ball?

Yeah, that ball.

What, you slow or something?
What's up?

Nah, I ain't slow, bro.

Go get your own ball.

Yo, man.
What?

What's your problem, son?

What's your problem?
You my problem.

You need to learn
how to speak to people.

You need to have respect, son.
MAN: I got it.

Hey, I got it.

MAN 2: It's all good.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

We're all just here
to have a good time, right?

Yes, sir.

(EXHALES)

Come here, girl.

There you go.

MAN: Maxine's been acting
a little off lately.

She really perked up
when she saw you.

You a dog person?

Used to have one.

Oh, yeah?
What happened to it?

Don't have her anymore.

Elliot, right?

I'm Ray.

I've seen you here before.

You must like the games, huh?

They put Bradstreet in.
He's good on the boards.

Come on, boys.

Look at these guys.
What do you see?

A lot of care and effort
over what amounts to
a pretty shitty game.

What's Maxine see?

A bunch of dumb animals,

can't think past anything
but getting a ball in a hoop.

What do they want you to see?

Badass homies...

Ready to kill
if you step to 'em.

Question is...

Which is the truth?

Maybe all of 'em.
Maybe none of 'em.

Maybe truth don't even exist.

Maybe what we think is
all we got,

which is why
I'm a little jealous
of Maxine over here,

'cause all she
gives a shit about
is eating and sleeping.

Ain't that right, girl?

Not the loquacious type,
I get it.

Me, I talk all the time,

but I guess you
picked up on that.

It's cool though.
Communication is good
for my line of work.

Takes a lot of it
to run a good business.

But unlike you,
when it comes to computers,
well,

I get them about as much as
Maxine here gets
E. E. Cummings,

so when I heard...

Whatever you heard,
it's not true.
I don't do that anymore.

MR. ROBOT:
Tell him you'll help.
Try it once, huh?

Let that old
feeling come back.

You know,
this morning over breakfast

my wife told me
I'd make a friend today.

Not many people to
talk to around here
except for these knuckleheads.

It's cool if we
continue talking?

No, thanks.

Damn, man.

That's some cold,
brutal shit right there.

I'ma have to go listen
to some Adele on repeat

when I get back home.

Okay, I can take a hint.

Come on, babe.

How long you gonna keep us
in this analog nightmare?

ELLIOT: As long as it takes.

Without my weapon of choice,
Mr. Robot is unplugged,
powerless.

He'll try to wear us down,

but as long as
we stick to the regimen,
he can't take control

no matter how
much of an illusion
he thinks this is.

NANCY GRACE: (ON TV)
I mean, it's a disgrace,

an absolute disgrace
police have not
found this guy.

Not only does all the evidence
behind the Five/Nine
attacks lead to him,

but he is
the leading suspect behind
the Sharon Knowles murder.

I've said it before.
I'll say it again.

The misogynistic blind eye
by law enforcement in this...

My problem, Stassi.

I hit her for
a... (BLEEPS) reason.

She... (BLEEPS)
my ex-boyfriend...

Hey, Vanderpump's on.
You want to watch?

Another time.
You know what?

I'll walk away and
let this be about you.

How was I that time?
Did I do okay?

I didn't hurt
you too bad, right?

You're spoiling it again.

GIRL: (ON TV)
At least I didn't
break a couple up.

Do you want to go
have a drink at the bar?

You know,
I know the guy who works here

makes awesome
mescal cocktails.

We used to
bartend together back
at this place...

We're not to be seen together,
remember?

That was our agreement.

(DOOR KNOCK)

That's him,
isn't it?

Freaks me out.
Can't he wait downstairs?

He's doing his job.

She's still in the tub.

You said 2:00. It's 2:15.

Hand me a towel?

Go. We can't leave together.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

WOMAN: So unfair. She came
out of nowhere a month ago.

Sometimes I see her
talking to herself.

Oh, my gosh, you did, too?

So weird.

(SCOFFS) Yeah,
Melissa hates her, too.

Shit, I got to take this.
I'll call you back.

I'm telling you,
it's non-negotiable.

MAN ON PHONE: No one's going
to let you take that
question off the table.

The money burning
is a big part

of why everyone
wants the exclusive.

Bloomberg, line two for you.

Except for CNN,
which you guys don't want...

I got to call you back.
Hi, Foster.

FOSTER: I thought
the deadline was noon.

It's noon now.

It's five past, Angela, and...

Ryder's agreeing
to the questions.

He's also giving us top
of the hour and Kelly.

Price doesn't even like Kelly.

I'll budge on the time slot,
but I can't on the question.
It's fair game.

Talk to the segment producer
and call me back.

Angela,
I already know the answer.

You were supposed
to make this happen
five minutes ago...

Just call me back.

Call Markinson.

We don't want CNBC,
or Fox News, for that matter.

I think you should
let Melissa handle this.
(PHONE RINGS)

Done deal?
FOSTER: Not gonna happen.

Scott Knowles burning
$5.9 million is on the table
or not at all.

We're going with CNBC.

They're sending
a deal memo as we speak.

You know I would
rather go with you.
You got to twist their arm.

Bullshit.

Did you just hang up
on Bloomberg?

Are you trying to get fired?

Leave.

Excuse me?

Leave.

(SCOFFS)

When Melissa finds out...
Get her.

Go ahead and get her.
Tell her whatever you want,

but right now get out
of my fucking cubicle.

(ROCK MUSIC PLAYING
VIA EARPHONES)

(RINGING)

FOSTER:
Fine, we'll take it off,

but we're talking
about the bailout
and Plouffe's suicide.

I can't do Plouffe.

Then we're walking for real.

Segment producer is pissed
that this is what...

The guy committed
suicide on national TV.

It's out of
respect for his family.

Trust me,
I'm doing you a favor.

You don't want
to ask about that.

Please, it's been a month.

One question,
and I have to approve it.

ANGELA: Hi, Melissa.

Bloomberg TV
agreed to all the points
on the exclusive.

Foster's sending you
the deal memo.

I need to get coffee
before the staff meeting.

(BABY COOING)

(CONTINUES COOING)

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

(WOMAN SIGHS)

Sorry I'm late.

Coming up to the city
was just a nightmare.

The tunnel was
at a snail's pace.

E-ZPass is down again.

They're saying
indefinitely this time,

but I cannot take
the train in this heat.

It must have been
in the 90s today.

Okay, sorry.

So?

I've decided to stay.

We agreed to discuss this.

We have for several weeks now.

Need I remind you
I was against you

taking Colby's job offer
in the first place?

And then even
when you convinced me

that we should wait to see
where it would lead,

we agreed it was only gonna be
for a brief trial basis.

I think we were both clearly
wrong about their motives.

Oh, I think
you are being naive.

And I don't think that we need
to have these talks anymore.

I like my job,
and I'm not quitting.

That's my decision.

You never had any
intention of leaving, did you?

I know you think
they're pulling something,

but that's because
you can't imagine anyone

ever valuing me
as a real asset,

when the truth is,

I've done more for
you and the lawsuit

than you've ever done
for me or yourself.

I have value,

and even though you
don't see it, they do.

They are barbarians
in $10,000 suits,

but I see your resolve.

I know when
to cut my losses.

A guy walks up to
a woman at a bar.

He flirts with her.
He makes small talk,

but the woman insists
she isn't gonna
go home with him.

Guy says, "What if I offer you
a million dollars
to sleep with me?"

The woman's never had
a million dollars in her life.

She stops and considers
the offer very seriously.

The guy changes
his mind, says,

"What if I change my offer
to a dollar instead?"

Woman is aghast.

"What kind of woman
do you think I am?"

Guy says,
"We already figured that out.
Now we're just negotiating."

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

(EXHALES)

Are you alone?

(TRANQUIL MUSIC)

WOMAN: (ON TV) Welcome
to Positive Affirmations
volume three,

Success and Money.

You'll hear the affirmations
repeated twice.

I will leave a space
for you to either repeat
mentally or out loud.

Please use this on
a consistent basis
to form new neural pathways.

Good luck.

I am confident.

I am confident.

I am confident.

My confidence is powerful.

My confidence is powerful.

My confidence
is powerful.

I recognize myself
as exceptional.

I recognize myself
as exceptional.

I recognize myself
as exceptional.

I will follow my dreams
no matter what.

I will follow my dreams
no matter what.

(INDISTINCT CHATTERING)

Come on, sit down.

(SIGHS)

Maxine wanted to
come over and say hi.
She missed you.

I think the damn dog
might actually like you
more than me.

See that smile?

(CHUCKLING)

Even though we're
technically not friends,
I told my wife we were,

was too embarrassed
to say otherwise.

You know,
you two would get along.

She likes to ignore me, too.

Hey, man, I don't
mean to be an asshole,

but like I said before,
I'm all good.

(LAUGHING)

Sorry, I actually don't know
why I'm laughing.

I thought you made
some joke I don't get,

so I usually just
fake laugh at those,

but, really, I'm confused.

I thought we were
on the same page.

About what?

When we spoke last night.

I don't know what
you're talking about, man.

I didn't see you last night.

You really don't remember.

You feeling okay, chief?

ELLIOT:
That's what the control,
the regimen, the journal,

my perfectly constructed loop,

what this whole
thing's been about.

Last night till this morning,
while I was sleeping,

I can't account for it,

a gap in my consciousness,
and somehow he...

What do they see
when they see you coming?

And this is why I'm different.

Sometimes my mask takes over.

Why did you talk to him?

Because I'm gonna
make you realize.

What?

What will you make me realize?

That they see me.

(LAUGHING)

(LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY)

What's so funny?

We started a movement.
We were meant to lead it.

Now, get back
on a terminal now.

Give me what I want
or keep shooting me.

Tell me where Tyrell is,
or shoot me again

'cause the only one
it's gonna drive mad is you...

Not me.

I'm late for my church group.

Peace.

...this time targeting
the Bank of E network

in an elaborate
ransomware attack.

The malicious malware targeted
the bank's computer servers

and spread to
multiple branches
in North America,

encrypting the data
and rendering
the systems unusable

unless a ransom was paid.

This more militant variant
of the hacker collective

forced Scott Knowles,
the CTO of E Corp,

to burn $5.9 million
in public view.

Shortly thereafter pictures
surfaced on social media

under the name
#OPdailyallowance.

Now, this is considered
a direct response
to E Corp's unpopular program,

which would lower
their daily cash

withdrawal allowances
for customers to $50.

MAN: Some stunt, huh?

Everybody's laughing
it off as a dumb prank,

but these guys know
what they're doing.

Never thought
that hard cash would
be this valuable right now.

We're reliving Black Tuesday,
the Great Depression.

Warning lights were flashing.

I mean, in the last two years

the Army Corps
of Engineers,

the Energy Department,
the State Department,

and the Office
of Personnel Management

were all hacked.

The government claimed
they were boosting security,

but what came of it?

The same as 1929.

Shit hit the fan.

An act like this
changes people,
changes society.

I'm just having a drink.

(LAUGHS) I'm sorry,

and I'm rambling
like a fanatic.

Is there something else
you want to talk about?

The beaches of Barbados,

espresso
on Rue Montmartre,

sitting around a campfire
in the Adirondacks?

I'm married.

I'm Brock...

And I know
you're Gideon Goddard.

(LAUGHS)

I watch way too much news.

God.

I can't believe I'm
a tabloid sensation.

More of a diehard fan.

(CHUCKLES)

I got a smile.
I'm on a roll.

When did he leave you?

What,
was that on the news, too?

No, just your face.

It's obvious why they
use you as their patsy.

You give off a very
sympathetic, honest vibe.

You're the perfect
vessel for their lies.

Yeah, well, I don't
know what to say to that,
but, um...

I'll agree with you
that it sure as
hell feels like

there's something
bigger than me in control.

Thank you.

For what?

Tomorrow I'm gonna be a hero.

I'm sorry?

You may just be a patsy,
but you're an important one.

In fact,
I don't think I've ever met

a bigger crisis actor
than you before.

This is for our country.
