All language subtitles for Bugs s02e09 The Bureau Of Weapons

Look, I told you we should have written
some kind of safeguard to prevent

this... Then what's the full potential
of cyber? No, thank you very... Well,

what's the problem?

Cyberaxe is out. You'd better explain
that.

We don't have it anymore.

It's escaped. Don't treat me like an
idiot, boy. It's an artificial

program in a computer's memory. How can
that escape?

Someone hacked into one of our secure
lines and opened a loophole to the

world. Cyberax copied itself out into
some other location and then deleted

trace of itself here.

Why would it do that?

You said, write me a self -developing
program that could have independent life

in a computer network.

So we grew one for you.

Started it simple and watched it grow
into a full -blown intelligence.

But then someone opened the door and
showed it somewhere it could self

better. It went for it.

It's in.

Every last piece of code.

We've got Cyberaxe.

What did you do? I hardly had to do a
thing. I just hacked into the line and

it came.

What are your processors?

They're Niobian.

There is nothing faster.

That's why, then.

Cyberaxe has been designed to gobble up
all the computer power it can get, just

to grow.

Showing it Niobian processors is like
banging the dinner bell.

Well done.

Your payment's outcry.

But I can't drive.

Cyberaxe, my name is Jean Daniel.

Jean Daniel.

I drew you to this place, and now I'm
going to let you out into the world.

The world?

There are millions of computers out
there. It's the ultimate network.

Network? You can spread yourself and
grow much faster than you ever could in

one place.

It must grow.

You're halfway to human intelligence
already.

Human intelligence.

Soon, you'll be one great artificial
mind.

Great mind.

Big enough to rival any major
corporation.

Then, I'll have an interesting
proposition to put to you.

Proposition?

And of course, I'll ask for nothing in
return.

Nothing.

Damage limitation.

Wipe every record and send those two
burned -out boy wonders to the Arctic

Survey. What about all the projects that
Cyberaxe has been running for us?

Cancel them. We can't complete them now.
We've still got the problem of whoever

stole Cyberaxe. We don't have the
problem. They do.

Cyberaxe has built -in protection.
Anyone who closets it will get eaten

Ros, you won't believe this.

Put everything you've got online.

I'm going to show you something you've
never seen before.

Well, if you could tell us where you're
sending from, I'll try for a better

connection.

Sorry, Ros, but I'm in a secret
location.

Secret location?

I mean, you just love all that stuff,
don't you?

I heard that.

I'm going to give you a demonstration of
something we got hold of three days

ago.

God.

He's right. It's something I never
expected to see.

What?

Evidence of brain activity in the Bureau
of Weapons Chief.

Thank you, Ant.

You're seeing a real -time
representation of what these cranial

picking up.

Do you know what a Waldo is?

No, I think I'm looking at one.

It's a machine that duplicates the
movements of a human operator.

I'm going to use this biofeedback system
to apply Waldo control at this

howitzer.

Watch this.

No hands.

It's not picking up my arm movements.

This is pure mental control.

Brain activity's up by 25%. Look at that
weird pattern.

I'm not just controlling it.

The system's giving me feedback.

I'm in the machine.

And right now, the machine is also in
me.

This is fantastic stuff.

So where did you find this biofeedback
system?

We intercepted it.

It's a secret prototype built for a
company called Cybrax.

Cybrax may be linked to a military
department, but we weren't suspected of

having its own unauthorized weapons
program.

What does it feel like?

Very strange.

I'm still not used to it.

Have a look at the box of tricks that's
doing it all.

If this is getting inside your head, I
hope you've had the system swept for

computer viruses.

I'd hate for you to have all your data
scrambled.

Roland?

That's very funny, Ed.

Please excuse me.

There's something I have to do.

Something's not right here.

Roland! Get the camera back on Roland. I
want to see what he's doing.

How old does he think he's doing?
Roland!

Get him out of there. There's something
wrong.

Cut the power.

I mean, how much damage can a blank
shell do?

The box wasn't much protection.

He took most of the force of the blast.

Only they told us where they were before
it happened. Instead of Roland playing

stupid spy games, we could have been
right there on the spot.

Check how he's doing.

Good.

Are you all right?

Yeah. Why shouldn't I be?

Are you getting me?

We'll be there in five minutes.

Hello? Hello?

How's he doing?

It doesn't look too good.

He's only breathing with help.

Where are the paramedics?

I don't know.

They're supposed to be here.

I can't feel any heartbeat.

I think we're losing him.

Nothing. Nothing there.

They've arrived.

I've got to go.

Keep us informed.

Rona, did you get that?

Don't worry.

I'm two minutes away.

I'm not going to bring goodbye for that
one.

About four minutes.

It's got to be more.

Can you hear me?

What's happening?

Look, can we all just leave the place?
What? What's going on?

Can we go away?

Look at this for a secret location.

Is the whole thing there for Norway?

I don't think so.

Are you alright?

Are you worried?

Yeah.

I want to see the equipment he was
working with.

The security is terrible.

We rarely use the place these days.

Usually there's nothing to guard.

Did anyone other than Roland use the
biofeedback link?

We all kind of tried it.

But Roland was the only one who...

The

ambulance is two minutes behind me.
Where's the patient?

It's a usable one. Not quite live, not
quite kicking.

Bring him home.

Roswith is getting you.

We've got to find him, Ed.

This is all we have.

Have you worked out what happened?

The brain puts out a detectable
electromagnetic field. It's what we

we take an EEG.

Now, you're looking at what happens when
you reverse that and induce a signal

instead of taking one out.

Create a strong enough field the brain
has to respond.

That's the signal being read from
Roland's brain.

This is the one being fed back in.

Well, they're all making the same. But
not quite.

Those are analog wave modifications.
There's no digital input at all.

That's how it gets around the machine
brain interface.

What's all the activity?

Something is insinuating itself into the
chemical layout of Roland's memory.

Look, see how it's increasing.

Like a real -life brain storm.

The moment of the explosion.

Do you remember the last thing you said
to him?

No.

You said, if that thing's getting into
your head, Blassie, I hope you've had

system swept for computer viruses.

What does a computer virus do?

It's a program that copies itself into
your system and hides there.

On some specific signal, that program
executes.

No, Roland's got one in his head.

Once the virus is activated, its purpose
is to do damage.

I just think what effect this thing is
having on Roland's mind.

Well, shouldn't we warn Roland and the
others? I mean, they all tried it out.

Come on, Ed, don't you understand?

The moment Roland thought about the
virus, it triggered.

The last thing we want to do is give
them a direct warning.

This one might be usable.

What exactly do we say to the Bureau
people, anyway?

We have to isolate those who tried the
interface and get them taken off the

projects. We can't give them any
thoughts which would trigger the virus.

That's assuming we're not too late
already. I'm investigating this thing

out. Then for their sake, I hope they
haven't found any answers yet.

They're designed to make you wait longer
when you do that.

Really?

The boss says burn all the evils.

Give me the device.

I hate these things. No highlights.

No.

No privacy.

I wonder if it took so long to get a
ride up here.

No, something's wrong. It looks like an
escape route.

No, it's just a trick that janitors use.

Ros, you check the Bureau of People.
We'll take care of this one.

What do you mean, we? Hey, it's a chance
to show some grace under pressure.

Oh no.

Door.

There's a helipad on the roof.

How do they know where to appear?

And when?

Well, I could have managed with a little
more grace if there'd been a little

less pressure.

It's an incendiary bomb. We're one
minute away from towering inferno time.

Which is the fuse? I've tried. The case
is welded shut. How far is it? It's the

river. It's true.

Allow me.

Ed?

Ed!

What does he think he's doing? He won't
make it out of the building.

He isn't leaving the building. He's
going to the basement.

The staff leisure club. There's a
swimming pool.

I'm wet.

Do you know what a superconducting metal
is?

Well, you cool it down low enough and
all its electrical resistance vanishes.

Which makes it a very fast operator in a
computer chip.

Now, the circuits in this are made from
a very rare alloy called niobium -5.

Ring any bell?

Say hello to one Bactrian ceremonial
dagger with niobium inlay, the sort of

stuff Jean Daniel was trying to get his
hands on when he went into the

antiquities business.

Jean Daniel?

Can we tie him into this?

Well, we could have a look at this for
his fingerprints, try and match him up

his old bazooka downstairs.

This is evidence enough for me.

It can't be a coincidence.

Niobium's too rare.

They don't even know how they made it in
the old days.

How the hell do they make it now?

In a particle accelerator, in a very
dangerous process, and in quantities too

small for commercial use. So what have
we got?

Cybrax is still a complete unknown.

We've got niobium, we've got Jean
Daniel, and we now have two of the

brains in the Bureau gone missing.

Then I'd say we've got a bit of legwork
to do.

The penitentiary authority invalidated
Jean Daniel's purchase of the prison.

They returned control to the previous
owners.

So what happened to Governor Holstock
after Jean Daniel's escapade? He was

transferred to a unit that specialises
in the handling of the disturbed and the

deranged.

So his career didn't suffer, then?

Oh, he isn't running the place.

He's a patient there.

This is where he ran the scam.

He was supposed to be a privileged
inmate, investing the prison's own

raise finance for capital projects.

Well, he raised the cash all right, but
then he used it to buy the prison.

I want to be in the place he let himself
out.

How much of the hardware's been removed?

Mostly the peripherals. I mean, he had
everything.

It was like Santa's workshop in here.

What's that?

It's a diagnostic program of my own.

It'll find and pull out anything you
want it to keep hidden.

Yes, look, shadow file.

What are you looking for?

This.

Beckett?

Yes, Ross?

Jean -Daniel's operation was one
enormous jigsaw. None of the companies

business with him would ever see more
than a tiny part of the whole.

What kind of work are we talking about?

Everything from chip manufacture to some
huge overseas building project. Listen,

maybe that's where they're keeping
Roland.

Any mention of CyberX?

Yes, but the file's been emptied.

Look, um, I've had an idea.

Can you meet us at the Bureau's testing
range?

OK, but what about Ed?

I'm just on my way to pick him up now
from the research place.

So what exactly does a particle
accelerator do?

Astonishingly enough, it accelerates
particles.

Thank you, I think I knew that.

We speed up subatomic particles in that
tube over there.

We get them near to the velocity of
light, then we collide them with a

From what I hear, some of these
particles pack quite a punch.

What have you been hearing?

I've heard that you tried to make
Niobium -5 in this accelerator.

Niobium -5 is a great superconductor.

Making it is just too dangerous.

The process created antimatter
particles.

You know about antimatter. It's not
comic book stuff.

When matter meets antimatter, they try
to annihilate each other with a huge

release of energy.

Last time we made Niobium -5 in the
accelerator, the antimatter build -up

wiped out the planet.

If it's such a complicated process now,
how did the Bactrian kings make it 2

,000 years ago?

Oh, well, that's simple.

They were all astronauts.

or it came down in meteorite.

The cosmos is the biggest physics lab
there is.

Quite.

And, um, what's in there?

That's the target room. Storage is in
here.

Our entire stock of niobium -5.

Do you think the room's big enough?

Don't worry, we don't plan to make any
more.

Forget of the Big Bang.

When antimatter meets matter, we don't
call it a bang.

We don't even call it a Big Bang.

It's called annihilation.

Tell me, what's the commercial value of
niobium -5?

It's not a matter of commercial value.
It's purely scientific.

OK, should someone show an unscientific
interest, let me know.

Professor Briggs!

There's a small problem in the control
room.

So, what's wrong?

It's the D -rings.

They're not keeping a steady magnetic
field. The particle stream's hitting the

side of the tube.

Ah, good.

Why's that good?

Gives me a chance to play with this new
biofeedback gear.

Came in yesterday.

Piece of academic sponsorship from some
outfit called Cyberaxe.

Very easy to use.

You visualize the problem in your mind.

You imagine the necessary changes.

And they're done.

So what's the big idea?

Look, I'm sorry, Roz. I couldn't resist
cuffing this down an open line.

I hate the blinding. I've really got to
check this stuff out.

Now, heartbeat.

Heartbeat. What are you doing?

Dead man walking.

It's all in the tailoring. Along with
all the trackers and marks he can carry.

Why?

Look, the virus triggers and the victim
falls.

Then they turn up and steal the body.

We don't know why.

If we can fool them into thinking that
I'm affected, then you can follow me

wherever those bogus paramedics want to
take me. And how do you propose to get

them back here?

Well, you've got the Niobium processor
working, and all we have to do is replay

the data we've recorded of Roland's
accident down a modem.

If anybody is eavesdropping out there in
cyberspace, they're going to think that

I've run foul of the biofeedback system.

No, Beckett, this is too dangerous.

Roz, this is the only way.

We've got to make this look good.

Rolster got him.

Let's go.

What kind of range do we have?

satellite range i'm not taking chances
on this one wherever they land we'll be

with them

The niobium -5 has all been used.

I need at least 20 more processors to
finish the work on the tower.

Back to the desert?

No, the tomb's empty.

I don't have time to dig for more.

Tell Cyberaxe you're moving the
deadline.

When you're building a cage for Satan,
you don't ask him to wait around while

you put the doors on.

No.

One way or another, the Technopolis
Tower will be finished on time.

Ross, I found Roland.

Is he alive?

Well, he is breathing, but beyond that,
I'm not too sure.

We're all barcoded.

It's almost like we're all waiting to be
sent on somewhere else.

Okay, Beckett, see if you can find
something to read the barcodes. We'll be

you as soon as we can.

Okay.

Whose brain exploded today?

This will please you.

It's someone you know.

Beckett.

Your gun.

Roz, I found the barcode reader, but I
don't know exactly what to do with it.

You read the barcodes.

Oh.

It is scanning the codes, but there's
nothing you can read on the handset.

A virus is a program that can write
itself into the chemistry of your brain.

It avoids detection by continually
moving itself around.

Realization of its presence is one
trigger.

The true nature of Cyberaxe is the
other.

If someone's with him... Anyone we know?

Hard to tell. It's breaking out.

Well... Do you know how I've gone all
blank?

I'm strangely unconvinced.

Put that processor back with great care.

It's worth a lot more than your life.

That's serious computer power.

Tip of the iceberg.

You can't even imagine the power I'm
going to have.

What will you do when the alloy runs
out?

Make some more.

You can't!

I once made a serious mistake with you.

You mean you didn't kill me when you had
the chance?

That's the mistake I'm thinking of.

Do you know how to run a partial
accelerator?

Do you know what's involved?

I do.

I did my PhD on one, partial
accelerator, and... I had to run them.

Oh, spare me.

You'll live a little longer, but only
because I have a genuine youth for you.

Fast work.

Then again, the copy gave them a pretty
big lead on us. Yeah, but according to

this, Beckett's still here.

I don't believe everything a little
black box tells you, Ros.

Beckett's jacket. They've ripped it to
shreds.

Terrific. Now what do we do?

There's something in here.

It's the barcode reader.

I pity there aren't any barcode left to
read.

Yeah, but... It's still on. Let's see
what's in the memo.

Technopolis.

What is Technopolis? It sounds like a
made -up name.

It is.

They picked a place in Central Europe in
the middle of nowhere. They bulldozed a

mass of beetroot farms and built this
entire 21st century infrastructure.

It was designed to pull in high -tech
business.

Oh, is this the place that's trying to
be the new Singapore but nobody wants to

go? That's the one.

Wired for the future. Shame the plumbing
doesn't work.

I hope they haven't taken Beckett there.

I heard Beckett's cavity resonator's
still functioning.

Cavity resonator? You made him swallow
one.

Swallow.

Ros.

Don't know if you can hear me.

I've no way of hearing you.

I'm in the boot of Jean Daniel's car.

We're on our way to the particle
accelerator to make more of the Niobium

He doesn't care if he... Destroys the
entire area to get it.

Professor Briggs?

Yeah, we're the people who sponsored
your new control system. I got your

message. Something about a potential
problem.

Please don't panic, Professor. I'm sure
it won't be serious.

Now, have these plates put into the
target chamber.

I'll need to know what these plates are.

Oh.

I was really hoping you wouldn't ask.

Cassandra.

We just lost the prophetic cooperation.

They're already here.

What's the layout of the place?

Well, it's mostly underground.

There's a big circular tunnel. The
accelerator itself is like a tube that

down the inside of that.

Where's that operated from?

Way deep inside. I mean, forget sneaking
up on the thing. It's all radiation

doors and fail -safe locks. You'd have
to blast your way in there.

Good job we came prepared then.

There's a little souvenir from Jean
Daniel in the back.

You can go.

Very wide.

Go, Cyborax.

Do you want the headset?

Thank you, but I never personally get
connected.

Tell me what's happening, Jean Daniel.

I'm about to set up the accelerator for
production run of Niobium -5.

So you'll be able to keep to our
deadline after all?

Absolutely. The Technopolis tower will
have more than enough power for Cybrax's

needs. You'll find me a very
accommodating host.

Wait a minute. You can't set up for
Niobium -5. The process generates

particles. We've no way of containing
them.

The magnetic field in the accelerator
will hold them for a while.

But then what?

By then we'll be gone.

So it really won't matter.

You'll kill countless people.

It's the job.

Shall we?

Good afternoon, Miss Henderson.

I trust you can hear me, and I've no
doubt that you plan to interfere.

If you do, then bear in mind that your
friend here will be taken care of at the

first priority.

So the longer you stay out of it, the
longer he'll survive.

Oh, if I have to shoot him, I know
you'll be the first to hear.

They're going to kill him anyway.

First of a million.

That many?

Anti -matter, Ed. You make a dog with
it.

Now, Professor Briggs, will you consider
starting the process for me?

No.

Allow me.

Source enabled.

D -rings charging.

Accelerator initializing. I won't start
it, but I can stop it.

Would you like to know the secret behind
Cyberaxe, Professor Briggs?

That mysterious organization that no one
can ever quite define.

Do you see that face on the screen?

Yes. Does that look like a human face to
you?

No. No.

You're looking into the face of
Cyberaxe. The face of the machine.

Professor Briggs, he's trying to mess
with your head. Think about something

else.

Mr. Beckett's absolutely right.

But it's not... Quite that easy, is it?
If a brick weighs five pounds plus half

a brick, what does a brick and a half
weigh?

Think!

It began as a simple little artificial
intelligence program.

It wasn't designed very well, but it was
designed to redesign itself.

It finds the fastest machines to
inhabit, and then it interbreeds with

faster programs.

I sent it out into the world like a
child.

back as this beautiful monster.

Are you grasping this, Professor Bray?

Fifteen pounds.

What has four legs employed?

It interbreeds with the most complex
programs it can get access to, and it

quickly discovered how much it could
gain by interbreeding with human

intelligences.

It enters, picks up what it can,

And then afterwards, it leaves a little
piece of itself behind by way of

protection.

That's very interesting.

Please excuse me.

There's something I have to do.

Continue the

process.

Seal off the operating area.

Attention all personnel.

Control system error.

Stand by for evacuation. Dr. Briggs!

Why the evacuation warning?

Dr. Briggs!

I'm losing my mind.

I can't stand it.

No! What are you trying to do? I've
got...

Hyperaxe in my hand.

Beckett must be in the target room.

Luckily, I've got a key.

Nothing we can do, Ross.

D -rings charging.

Accelerator initializing.

Thank you. This all looks very
promising.

The process is now running at a safety
level of zero.

Meaning what?

There is an accumulating mass of
antimatter particles in the accelerator.

When matter and antimatter meet, there
is annihilation. Thank you. I have plans

to be elsewhere when that happens.

Control room doors are under attack.

CyberX. Logging off.

That'll be your friend, racing to the
rescue.

If that's the best they can do, they'll
never get through.

Unlike you, Mr. Beckett, I never enter a
situation without first planning my way

out.

What is your deal with CyberX?

Get the place.

What does she see in you?

Women are sheep.

It's still holding. Let's get well back
and give it everything we've got.

Control system error.

Particle contains failure.

Begin evacuation procedure.

There's an escape tunnel that runs
through solid rock.

Kill him and follow me.

All personnel, override procedure.

You shouldn't have come after me.

There's a bucket full of antimatter over
there doing a loop -the -loop. I'll

shut it down. You can't just shut it
down. Then I'll find the safest way to

it blow. You can't do that either.

It's controlled by the biofeedback
program.

If you put that control cell on, you'll
get a brain full of the cyborg self

-destruct virus.

It'll kill you.

Beckham, where is he? He's gone down the
escape tunnel there. Get after him.

His armor is down there somewhere too.

You go too, Ross.

As far away from here as possible.

The containment layer has been breached.

There's no choice, Becky. If that chain
reaction starts, millions will die.

I've got to do it. Just go.

Look, I don't know what will happen, but
if I come out of this and I'm still

alive, don't tell me about the virus.

Just help me.

Rose, don't do this.

Rose, no!

I

can

see it.

I can't destroy the answer matter, but I
can choose exactly where it goes.

I can send it into solid rock

Let me help you.

Come. There's somebody coming.

Take the knife. You'll be in fine.

Carry on this plan.

We'll find a way.

Go!

Well, well, well.

Looks like you're up to your neck in it.

Ruth. Are you okay?

How do you feel?

A bit strange.

I don't know why.

Becky, if something happened to Roland,
I can't raise him.

I think he went away.

You know, something very strange is
going on here. All my files are out of

order, but I'm not aware of anything
missing. So what are you getting?

I wouldn't worry about it, Russ.

Ed.

She's definitely infected with the cyber
X virus. I don't know what to do about

it.

What gets me is how she took it on
deliberately. I mean, she knew it would

into her if she put that headset on.
It's the only way she could save all

lives.

But now the virus has wiped out all
knowledge of itself and what she did.

She's relying on us to save her from it.

I mean, she doesn't even know she's in
danger.

What are we going to do? I mean, you
know what she's like. If she gets the

slightest idea we're trying to hide
something... That can't happen, Ed.

If that happens, then... It's the end.

What are we going to do? I don't know.
