50 was?

60 plus your massage.

Your total was 90.

I don't remember any massage.

Come on now, lover.

Sure you do.

Oh.

Oh, yeah.

That massage.

It sure did help you unwind.

90?

Need a receipt gotta go

We've reached Cosmos Security
Management.

If you know the party with whom... Jake
Cardigan. One moment, please.

Hi, this is Jake Cardigan. I'm not in
right now, so talk to me.

Jake, Charmaine.

I've got something to sell you. It's
very big.

Call me the second you get this message.
I'm not leaving my apartment.

You got that right.

supplementing our income with a bit of
snitching, are we?

Starting a retirement fund, maybe.

You won't need it.

Oh, don't be scared.

It's only tech.

This is your friend.

You'll make your dreams come true.

Charmaine.

Been a long time.

Pleasant dream?

Enjoy it.

You'll be dead within the hour.

Good evening, Beth.

You have two messages.

Playing back.

Beth.

Yeah, I know we said we were going out
to dinner tonight, but things got a

little busy around here. So why don't I
just pick us up some Thai food and maybe

we'll go out Friday night instead.

All right?

See you in a while.

Beth Kittredge, you're a winner.

1 ,000 credits of free merchandise from
the Interactive Value Network.

There's no catch.

Just tune in and spend them.

IVN, the only way to shop.

Clear messages.

And turn on IVN.

Am I a lunatic?

I heard that. And you are wrong. R -O -N
-G wrong.

I am giving away these little miracles
with every purchase. Why?

I love music.

And I want to share this amazing super
music machine with all my loyal IVN

shoppers. Because you have made me
stinking rich.

So come on, do us both a favor. Order
something now. You will love your free

super music machine. Or my name isn't
Marty Dollar.

You are watching the Interactive Value
Network.

So don't just sit there.

Interactive mode on.

May I see that dress?

Certainly. Please step closer.

Exclusively from IVN, this lovely
cocktail dress is perfect for that

evening on the town. Best of all, it's
only 1 ,195 credits.

Yow!

Yow? As in you look great?

Yeah, you look great, but yow is in 1
,200 credits?

I want $1 ,000. So it's not really only
$200.

Only?

Would you rather have some cut tie?

I'll take both.

Order, please.

Size noted. Credit approved.

Thank you for shopping, IVN. We also
have a special on shoes.

Half price on glass noodles.

No, thank you.

Yes, please.

View screen off.

You know, there are actually places
where you can go to and people serve you

food on plate. No, I'm sorry that we
didn't go out to dinner tonight, but I

promise you, the service is much better
here. I promise.

I promise you the best service that
you've ever had in your life tonight.

I'm going to hold you to it.

Good phone on.

Hey, partner, what's up?

Hate to disturb your dinner, but do you
remember a lady by the name of

Charmaine? Yeah.

If you snitch for us, we're on the
fourth.

That's the one. She left you a message.

Flagged it urgent, so I peeked. Says she
wants to sell you something big.

I guess we should check it out.

Get the phone off.

Did your pad tile get cold?

I like it cold.

Save me some satay.

Honey, I'll be back before you know it.

Uh -huh.

Still not answering.

Hey, what is that thing? Is that a new
toy in there?

It's not a toy.

It's a prototype that Madison's asking
to field test. It's called a pod.

A pod?

Let me guess.

Puny obnoxious device?

Not even close. Portable olfactory
detector.

This baby can pick up the most minute
aromatic traces and match them to a

database of 80 ,000 cents.

This is a highly sophisticated
instrument.

Heck, overdosed.

Guess we'd better notify the cops.

Yeah, we'll call Winger.

After we look around.

Fourteen hertz of sonic.

With some broken A, suggestive state of
mind.

Well, it's your usual M .O.

Loosing up the bodies, and maybe the
tongues.

I bet you want to know who this thing
was last used on.

I sure would.

Aha!

Hydrocarbon traces.

Petrochemical. Could be our man worked
in a refinery.

Or maybe somebody rubbed him down with
body oil.

That's another possibility.

Looks like somebody wiped their
organizer clean.

New sentence.

Whoever wiped it recently ate petai.

Wrong. This baby is never wrong. I ate
the petai.

Oh, sensitivity must be too high.

You also wear an evening breeze.

And what is evening breeze? A very high
-class perfume somebody was definitely

wearing. Oh, that's really helpful.

Somebody in this room was wearing that
perfume.

Maybe it was the murderer that was
wearing it. Or maybe it was Charmaine

herself. Or maybe it was a friend of
hers, huh? Or maybe a weird customer.

Okay, okay.

You want to do something useful? Put
that thing away and see if you can find

client list.

You said the organizer was white.

Yeah, you ever see a hooker without a
backup?

It's something she wants to keep with
her at all times, right?

Kind of light for a rock. Thank you.

But that'll do.

Beth Kittredge, IVN Delivery.

Yes, that's right. It's me in the flesh.

It's all part of an IVN feeding and
personal service. Here's your lovely and

reasonably priced dress. Oh, thank you.

What a beautiful place you have here.

I love this staircase.

It's magnificent.

Marty Dollar, what are you doing here?
Just delivering the goods.

Do you always deliver your goods in
person, Mr. Dollar?

No, as a matter of fact, this is a
first.

Oh, here is your free super music
machine.

Allow me.

I'll bet you like Mozart.

Stunning, isn't it?

No speakers, no headsets. It emits a
neural field that stimulates the

It's amazing.

What exactly are you selling, Mr.
Dollar?

Marty.

Forgive my theatrics, but my staff
informs me whenever a celebrity places

order. I'm not a celebrity.

You are to me.

You're one of the world's top cyber
biologists. I've read everything you've

published in the cybernetic journals.

Really? Your molecular studies on tech
are...

Amazingly perceptive.

So you've come for my autograph?

No. I want to offer you a job.

I have a dream.

I want to stamp out tech addiction, and
I think I can do it. By making tech

itself non -addictive.

It's impossible.

On the contrary.

Suppose you could reduce the
acetylcholine levels.

That would require altering the
diphenerine structure.

Just enough to remove the addictive
effects.

But not so much as to interfere with
neuronal inductance.

Beth.

Hi. What can I say?

I'm running a little late.

Jake Cardigan.

I'm Marty Dollar. Perhaps you've seen me
on my interactive value network.

No, I don't shop from bit screen. I
prefer the personal touch.

So do I.

That's why I'm here.

Jake, Mr. Dollar's just offered me a
job.

Marty, please.

That's right. Huge salary, full
benefits, and a state -of -the -art

Beth is going to become part of our
great IVN family.

Is she now?

If I accept.

I haven't yet.

Well, you know what's best.

Look, I gotta run. We'll talk about it
later.

Delighted to meet you, Jake.

Yeah.

Is nine tomorrow too early?

For what? To come and visit your new
lab, check out the facility, see what

has been done already.

Tell me, am I winning those thousand
credits?

You rigged that, didn't you? Just to get
my attention?

Exactly. Like I said, you're amazingly
perceptive.

Those damn ads are everywhere.

What's that, Charmaine's dad disc?

Uh -huh.

Full record of her clientele.

Last customer, Lyle Krebs, 5 Letterman
Avenue.

Number five.

Dr. Krebs is not at home.

When will he be back?

He did not specify.

Rob's a model too, Locke.

Way out of date.

Consumer City.

Yeah, and all from Marty Dollar's
network, too.

It doesn't say much for Mr. Krebs'
taste, does it?

Hey, does that thing have a vine
control?

Look, same reading as before.

Evening breeze perfume.

Did you know that perfume produces a
slightly different scent on everybody's

purse? Gee, I didn't know that.

Oh, well, the pot does.

I'm going to set it to tell us when it
detects that particular person. No, just

don't look at the names, okay? Here's
something.

Krebs worked for IBM.

Which explains all this junk.

Must get a great employee discount.

Yeah, sure.

Just like Spring's work home, though.

You want to go two for two?

What are you doing? I wouldn't trust
that beast as far as I could.

Really? So much for waking up the
neighbors.

I said it.

State of the art.

And a molecular synthesizer, nothing but
the best when you work for IVF.

If I work for IVF. Hey, tell you what,
why don't you take a week and see how

like it, huh?

Beth, we need you.

We are so close to a breakthrough.

Please, help us.

We've been trying to neutralize the
diphenerine using gamma rays.

That might work.

Have you tried pulse bombardment?

No. No, we have not. Please.

I'll need diphenerine to test.

I'll supply you with tech chips to
extract it from.

That takes forever and doesn't yield
much.

I'll just synthesize what I need. It's
not difficult.

You are too modest.

I would guess there are perhaps ten
people in the world who could do that.

I knew I picked the right person.

Beth, we're going to do great things
together.

And just what exactly does that mean?

Jake.

What are you doing here?

Just came to visit your new boss.

Mr. Cardigan.

How nice to meet you in the flesh.

How can I help you?

Tell me about Lyle Krebs.

Employee of yours?

Yes. Research and development. Perhaps
you've heard of him.

Also a murder suspect.

And I'd like to speak to him.

So would I.

Krebs disappeared yesterday. Just about
the time that I asked for his arrest.

Arrest for what?

I'd rather not say. It's an internal
corporate matter.

You understand?

No, I don't. Explain.

Unless there's something that you're
trying to hide.

That's all right, Beth.

Could we talk about this elsewhere?

Why? Is there something about IVN's
corporate affairs that you want to hide

your new employee? Jay, not at all. I
just don't want to keep her from her

important work.

We'll discuss the anti -addiction
project over lunch.

Krebs was stealing merchandise from us.
He bragged about it to a prostitute

named Charmaine, and she told IVN.

Charmaine snitched to you?

Well, for a price, naturally.

And then you notified the cops?

Yes. Unfortunately, by then, the woman
was already murdered, and Krebs had

already disappeared.

Lieutenant Winger. What are you doing
here, Cardigan?

Oh, just nosing around.

That's what they pay me for.

Is there any place you won't stick your
nose?

There's been a new development in the
Krebs case.

You want him present for this?

Oh, don't worry, Winger.

I won't laugh if you say something
stupid. You may speak freely,

Last night, Krebs' apartment was
firebombed.

Forensics said the device was rigged
inside a file cabinet where presuming

planted it.

Presuming? You mean guessing.

I don't guess.

I employ inductive logic.

Oh, pardon me. Go on.

Also, there's evidence Krebs took a
flight to Rio.

We're checking.

Thank you.

You'll keep me posted.

That's it?

Case closed?

When we locate Krebs.

Same credit as you never would.

Now, now, Cardigan.

You know gambling is against the law.

Mr. Dollar, I find it hard to believe
that Charmaine came to you.

She never trusted the corporate type.

She had a commodity to sell.

Everything's buying and selling with
you, isn't it? You know, some people are

for sale.

That has not been my experience.

Is there anything else I can do for you?

Stay out of my house.

Try some.

It's real, not synthetic.

This is quite a place for a business
lunch.

Well, I own the joint.

My wife liked it, so I bought it.

I didn't know you were married.

She died about a year ago.

I'm sorry.

She was a tech addict.

She knew it was killing her.

I mean, she wanted to quit, but she
didn't have the strength.

I, uh, I established the IVN Anti -Tech
Foundation the day I

buried her.

Like, Beth, I'm a realist.

I don't think we'll ever stamp out tech,
but if we can at least make it non

-addictive, those that want to quit can.

I don't need to give you a pep talk.

The fight against Tech has always been
your fight, too.

And your father's. I know.

It's a fight he lives for.

He's a very passionate man.

Like father, like daughter.

It must be tough to follow in the
footsteps of a man like that.

I promised myself I'd try and live up to
his expectations.

And you will.

Is all you got on Krebs?

Do I look like a magician?

I can't pull data. It's in the air.

Nika, there's got to be more than this.

The guy was dirty.

Obsessive today, aren't we, Jake?

I can't believe that all Charmaine was
trying to sell me was a small -time

shoplifter. Krebs had to be mixed up in
something bigger.

If anyone has a job to find proof on the
Matrix, it's me.

But if it ain't there, it ain't there.

What do you want?

His whereabouts would be nice.

The flight record says Rio. Of course,
that is so easy to fake. It could fool

anyone. Except a cop.

Tell me what he was working on when he
was at IVN.

I have given you his complete IVN file.

It's not my fault they're too smart to
enter his evil deeds into the cyber

record. Jake.

Hacking into private files?

That's an invasion of privacy.

Never stopped you. Well, I had good
reason, have you?

Something's going on at IVN. Something?

What are you up to, Jake?

He's following a hunch.

A hunch or something else?

Such as what?

You tell me.

You think I'm after Marty Dollar just
because I don't like the guy? Well, I

think that's the issue. It's what you
think. I think he's a con man. But

his con?

I'm working on it.

I've known Marty Dollar for ten years.

Well, I figured that you would know.

It was his company that raised the money
that funded the research that cured

leukemia. He's a benefactor. No, he's a
manipulator.

Though he's done a few good deeds.

That buys him hands off? No.

But it suggests that anybody taking a
pot shot better have some real live

ammunition. You're shooting blanks.
Where are your facts?

He's phenomenally wealthy.

He owns a network. What reason would he
have to run a car?

So you're saying I should look into his
motivation?

Not his.

Yours.

How's it going?

So far, I'm getting nowhere.

Oh, come on. It's just your first day.

Look, I'm hosting a little get -together
tonight at IVN to kick off the

Fantastic Music Friday. I would love it
if you and Jake would attend.

I'd rather keep working.

Oh, come on. You know what they say
about all work and no play, huh? And

tell me you have nothing to wear.

Come on, let me walk you to your car.

Receive pattern match.

Class one regulated substance.

I don't know, Sid.

Maybe I'm just not sitting straight on
this thing.

Follow your gut, partner.

Your hunches have paid off before.

Yeah, but can I trust my gut?

When I see Beth with Marty Dollar, my
gut burns like hell.

You saying you got a hunch about her?

I don't buy it.

We got problems, you know.

I don't spend enough time with her.

I can't buy her anything.

I try to talk to her about her work, but
it's way over my head.

So, he gives her a great job.

He spends lots of time with her, and he
knows all about her work. So what?

The lady loves you, man.

Sometimes that's not enough.

Jake, honey, you said Beth's lab is on
the third floor of IBM?

Yeah, so?

All IVN labs are on three.

But there's an area in the basement
fitted out the same way. Full shielding,

tons of waveguides sucking up a ton of
power.

So they got two labs.

So the building schematics filed with
the city have that area pegged as dead

storage. But IVN is using it for
something else.

Well, maybe Marty's got a little secret.

Nika, I could kiss you.

Well, if you insist on gratuity.

I'll keep it short and simple.

Tech chip.

Tech headset.

Tech user.

Tech fan.

Can't lie.

But only for a while.

For here are some tech realities.

A degree.

Criminal penalty.

Neural damage.

Simple enough?

Nice performance, Walter.

I rather thought so.

Good to have you on board in our war
against tech. I've been on board for

time, Marty.

I'm glad you decided to come.

Yeah, we could have gone out, the two of
us, had a little dinner, maybe talked a

few things out.

Yeah, we could have on that last night,
too.

Super music machine?

What, are you giving those away?

Yes, sir. Allow me.

Anything plays music?

Where do you put the chip? It needs no
chip. It comes with 90 hours of music

built into its memory.

Well, then what, you just toss it out?
Not at all. That's what Fantastic Music

Friday is for. At midnight, IBM's new
music computer goes online.

Millions of selections.

Gotcha. Thank you.

Racket. He gives away the hardware
because he's the only one selling the

software. Dr.

Kittredge, Mr. Cardigan, I'm so glad
that you could make it. I trust you're

enjoying yourselves.

Well, we couldn't be happier.

Don't you act that way.

Hey, Beth, believe me, Marty Dollar is
not a good guy. You are forever looking

for the bad in people.

That's my job.

Well, do you always have to be on the
job?

Dr. Kittredge, there's someone I'd like
you to meet over here. I'll be right

there.

Who's on the job now?

Go ahead.

I'll go talk to Baskin.

You missed my acting debut.

I got a fact for you.

There's a secret lab in this building.

You don't say.

I want to take a peek at it.

And you're going to help me.

I bet you think so.

Because I know what motivates you.

Curiosity.

You can't stand that there's something
going on in this world that you don't

know about.

Come on, didn't you once say that
knowledge is power?

That was Francis Bacon.

What sort of help do you need?

All is in hand, I trust?

Everything's operational.

Final checkout is in ten minutes.
Excellent.

I don't trust Carly.

Keep him busy, would you?

Dr. Kittredge, I've been ignoring you
quite long.

Pardon me, sir, but could I solicit your
advice?

Sure, why not?

What's the best way to break the ice
with someone who's just caught your eye?

Good -looking guy?

Very.

Offered a biometer?

Yes, and then what?

Now, are you one of the party favorites,
or are you for sale, too? You

sell something?

I'm not for selling anything.

Synthetic, just like the lobster.

And believe me, nobody knows phony like
me. I'm the master of phony.

I'm not.

Wrapped up in a phony, phony wrap.

Caused me my phony marriage.

Now I'm stuck in this phony stinking
job.

And there, over there, is my girlfriend
over there dancing with Mr.

Phony himself.

Marty Dollar!

All right, Jake, that's enough. Don't
spoil the occasion.

Can't spoil what's already rotten.

I said that's enough.

Hey, can't you tell time?

I'm off the clock.

And damn if I'm going to take orders
from you when I'm off the clock.

this is Walter Baskin. I want someone
picked up now. Guys, guys, come on.

going to do what? You're going to call
the cops on me now, huh? Huh? Huh?

For what?

Because you're drunk. Why don't you go
home? Why don't you go to hell?

No, Ben.

Okay.

Recharge against the Baskin.

Assault and battery.

That's a joke!

Big time, boss.

Let's see who's laughing when your
parole's revoked.

And you're back in the freezer.

I'll get you, boss.

I'm going to tell you guys.

I'll charge you. I'll sue you and your
whole state.

Oh,

it's nap time.

Not for me.

For you.

Why'd you drop the gun, partner? Because
you were losing faith.

Morph math never works when you need it.

Will you shut that thing off? What is
the problem?

It says your smell.

Who have you been hanging out with?

Some hot numbered I've met.

That hot number left a trace of eaten
breeze.

Korin Janika's map, it should be just
ahead.

Tommy, are you excited about your
preview of Fantastic Music Friday?

You bet.

You got your super music machine?

What's your favorite music?

Country metal.

Okay, good. Here we go.

Now, put your super music machine up
against this console so it can downline

your selection.

Are you hearing it yet?

Yeah.

Sounds great.

How was that?

Incredible.

Let me try it again.

It's all the time we have.

Come on.

Give me a little more.

Look, I'll tell you, I got class.

If you want more, listen to Fantastic
Music Friday in less than an hour.

We need Beth now.

Marty, Fantastic Music Friday broadcast
will begin shortly. If you all just take

a seat.

You're not staying at Jabaskum? I've had
enough theater for one evening, thank

you. A super music machine?

Let's get you. Could you come with me,
please? What for?

We need your statement. What are you
talking about?

Come with me.

What is this all about?

I'll let my partner explain.

What did you do? Take an ethanol
absorber? You're bad at listening to me.

to find out where Marty was. It's up to
you. Jake, I don't know whether to help

you or angry. Just wait a second, will
you?

Marty has figured out a way to make
those music machines addictive.

Anybody who buys music from IBM gets
hooked.

Instant junkies.

Millions of them.

How do you know this? Because we saw it.

It's a little capsule, about so big.
They plug it into the back of the

and that's it. My God, he's transmitting
the diphenerine over the network.

And I made the diphenerine for him.

You did what?

That's why he brought me here. It was a
calm job from the start. That bastard!

Jake, I'm sorry.

I should have listened to you.

Well, you had no reason to.

I was a jerk.

Well, if you've been a jerk, I've been a
fool.

I suppose we deserve each other.

But we've got to get to my love and
destroy what I think that... How

addictive is that, uh... Broadcast in
waveform, one capsule could hook half a

million people. Ouch.

Too late.

Much too late.

Brick them.

What ever happened with Krebs? Too
talkative and too greedy.

We terminated his employment.

Unfortunately, he destroyed all the
definerant he'd made.

Well, too bad you didn't think of that
before you killed him.

Nobody's perfect, sweetie.

Fortunately, Marty found himself a
sucker he could sweet -talk.

I don't want that one.

No, you're right.

Careful, idiot.

That's a proximity bomb with enough
neoplasm to take us all out.

He's bluffing. Let me see that.

She needs it.

My dear friends, I'm a salesman, and
this is the culmination of a salesman's

dream.

Tonight, I make history with the
greatest merchandising event of all

You think I'm exaggerating, don't you?

But before the night is out, you'll
believe me.

You will believe.

Oh, man, my pot is dead.

Well, may it rest in peace.

At least it serves its purpose.

Good evening, IBM viewers.

I'm Marty Dollar.

Did you miss me, huh?

Now, get ready for Fantastic Music
Friday in ten minutes.

You'll be able to buy all of the music
you've ever wanted.

And I guarantee you'll love it.

It's midnight.

Any way we can hack into that music
machine from here?

No, not in time.

Then we need a diversion.

What does Firebill do?

I should think so.

You two get out of here.

Call in the Calvary.

And I'm going to pull my plug.

Warning. Great levels of gamma radiation
detected. Check for shielding.

Okay, if for some odd reason you still
don't have your super music machine, let

me give you a little incentive.

The 10 ,000th person to receive a super
music machine by midnight will get this

absolutely fabulous plastic car.

Now, does that ring your chime?

Attention, attention.

Radiation breach on level three.

Evacuate the building.

Container has been breached.

Evacuate the building.

Attention, attention.

Radiation breach on level three.

Evacuate the building.

Wait, come back here.

One moment, please!

Evacuate immediately.

Attention. Attention.

Radiation breach on level three.

Evacuate the building immediately.

Give it up, Marty.

Those sirens will bring every cop in
town.

Not so fast, Jake. Trust me. You don't
want my thumb to come off this button.

Why? Let me show you what's behind the
curtain.

My security men.

We're forced to take out your partner.
But your girlfriend is okay.

For now.

Show's over, Marty.

Don't make it harder on yourself.

Nonsense.

I have one more spectacular pitch.

Go to your good phone right now and make
a call. Tell the cops that I've already

flown the coop.

Send them on a wild Marty chase.

You get the girl.

I duck out the back and make my way to
Peru for a healthy retirement.

I'm here, mate.

I got bluffed out by a hologram.

You're not a hologram, are you?

Hey,

partner.

I want you to tell Baskin that I'm going
to be taking a few days off, at least.

I'll say you're working on something
important.

You won't be lying.

By the way, what happened to Marty?

Oh, uh...

His offer expired.
