Is that you?

Old man, just give me water.

Thank you.

Cut her throat if you don't get away.

Do what he says.

I said do what he says!

Now take me to where you're found.

Nice and careful.

Return to key 314 facility.

No identification on database.

I got a problem I need you to deal with right away.

I took you off death row. I can put you back anytime.

How long have I been bailing you out?

Since you were what?

Fifteen?

Sixteen?

Little shit with a razor blade.

I got an idea.

Lose the Gucci.

I'll do whatever you want.

You know damn well that monitor's never coming off.

Unless you'd rather have an implant.

No implant.

I didn't think so.

Tell you what, this is an important job.

You take care of it fast, clean.

Maybe I'll take the monitor off.

What do you want me to do?

Clean yourself up, daughter.

Get a shave.

Meet me at the usual place.

In an hour.

Okay. Stay away.

You wanna kill me?

Stay away.

You ain't gonna kill me.

You're mine.

You hear me? You're mine!

No!

Damage to mechanism will release toxins.

Damage to mechanism will release toxins. No! Don't touch that!

Thank you.

Thank you.

You want something to drink?

Here.

How long have you been working at the hotel?

Why do you think I work at a hotel?

From your uniform.

Is that a uniform?

Sure. It's a tourist uniform.

Listen, I need food and a place to stay.

Having a tough time, huh?

Give you, say, 20 bills?

If you want to... 50 and another one of these.

And food.

30 and you can buy your own food.

Hey, be nice.

I'm talking to you.

I don't want to talk. I want my money. What are you afraid of?

You don't think I'm going to give it to you?

Come on.

Relax.

I'm not finished with you.

Don't touch me. Hey!

Hey! I want my money! You crazy bitch. You could have broken my wrist.

You're in some kind of trouble a bit, aren't you, huh?

Don't worry. I'm not going to do anything.

So long as you don't give me a hard time. No!

I'm not fooling around with you anymore.

You want me to call the cops, huh?

Oh, I like that.

Come on, show me how strong you are.

Come on, you can do it. Come on.

Somebody ripped off his implant.

See how the poison burned through his skin?

You take this body off this island.

You make sure there's not a trace left of it.

Shit.

20 years ago, this place was a hellhole.

The tourists would have his money stolen, his wife raped.

His teeth knocked down his throat before he even checked into a hotel.

The big beach resorts were going into receivership. The place was dying.

That's when the owners came to me.

I was given emergency powers, and over the next six months, I cleaned this

up.

Private war.

I won.

K -314 prison was funded entirely by Pacifica.

They just weren't involved.

In fact, they didn't know it existed.

They still don't.

And they're not going to.

I want this mess cleaned up.

You better wake up. You got butts to sleep in here.

Is this yours?

Hey!

Wait a minute.

What's the matter? Don't you got a place to stay?

You got a name on it?

Do you?

Here's a few bills.

Why don't you get something to eat?

Take it.

Make me feel elegant.

Your drug intake has exceeded safe levels.

I want to feel elegant!

Please ingest stabilization pills.

I don't have any money.

If you're going to kill me, do me a favor and do it here. Make it quick.

Reminder. Please ingest stabilization pill.

You want some?

What is it?

What do you mean, what is it?

Everybody has one.

It makes pills that make you feel whatever you want.

I want some food.

Food?

Hon, you got your priorities all wrong.

Do you want to keep me company?

What's that?

Just put your hand there.

It'll work for you.

Does it cost a lot to live here? $2 ,500 a month.

My husband pays it. We're separated.

He puts money in my account and the bank pays it.

I never see him or the bank or the money.

It's all invisible.

You've got ketchup on your dress.

Come on, we'll try and get it out.

Here, you can put this on.

I'll be upstairs.

I used to have a job, a normal life.

Well, it wasn't really normal.

It wasn't really my life.

It was an implant, an antidepressant regulator.

And then one day, the regulator failed, and it was like waking

up from a wonderful dream into a nightmare.

Only the dream was a lie, a chemical lie.

She's beautiful. Who is she?

Venus.

Don't touch it, please.

Are you okay?

I'm just tired.

You'll sleep better here.

Lay down.

You're very beautiful.

No.

Please select environment.

Midnight Express.

Please describe appearance desired for the discharge.

I have long brown hair and brown eyes.

I'm wearing a hotel staff uniform and my hands are rough.

My arms have scratches on them.

If word gets out about K -314 and I go down,

I take you with me, you understand?

Yeah, I've heard you say it.

Who was on that island when you sealed it off?

I told you.

Repeat offenders, murderers.

Were there any women?

Women.

There were a few.

17 inmates, some still.

So there's a second generation.

People born there. Prisoners all their lives, only they didn't do anything.

I wonder if that's a violation of rights.

Who gives a damn about rights?

There's a guy out there who's a serious danger to the public. What should we do?

File a grievance for him?

You want the monitor off, don't you?

Maria?

Maria?

So I guess this is all you need to see. White male, early 30s, dead about 48

hours, multiple sharp force injuries, probably a knife.

So what are you, a federal or what?

Let me see the wallet.

No money, no prints.

The wiper.

You know how to use a knife. Look at that cut.

In and up under the ribs.

Except for the main artery right below the heart.

How do you know that?

And what about those other wounds?

You did those afterwards.

So much you thought of them.

How do you know it was a girl?

Can't see a hooker wiping off prints.

Depends on the hooker.

I'm looking for a guy. You find out it's a guy, let me know.

Please describe appearance desired on this journey.

I wanna look like Venus.

Who's that woman?

This is how you will appear to all travelers on this journey.

Why? All travelers on virtual encounters assume various personas for

privacy protection and fantasy fulfillment.

Bye.

Is there anyone who interests you?

Having a problem?

These things go off all the time.

Probably just push the four instead of the three.

Everybody does that at least once.

There you go.

Thanks.

K314 Prison Island Facility.

Check.

But when I say work, you work.

It's so nice of you.

My vision.

In my vision, it's getting so I can barely see a damn thing. That's how I

my hand this morning. I forgot I left the stove on.

And I put my hand right to the fire.

That's why this is good.

This way you won't burn yourself.

And I'll learn to cook.

I don't want to be alone.

What do your friends do?

I don't have any friends.

Except for you.

Really? Jimmy, will you teach me things?

I mean, about money and how to drive a car and use a phone.

But you can't touch me.

Touch you?

Why would I touch you, for God's sake?

Call me as well.

Thank you.

You hear about the job?

What kind of job?

Shirt of waitress.

Tips are good, but you gotta have experience.

You doing what they do?

I can do that.

Come back tomorrow.

No sneakers, no t -shirt.

Black skirt, dark blouse like the others.

We'll give this a try.

Wait a second. Wait a second.

Is that what we ordered?

Do you remember what we ordered?

Take it back and try it again.

This is the third time.

Persona?

Welcome to virtual encounters.

Please attach VR lenses.

Touch me there.

Why? Just that one place, back of my neck.

What?

Bad memories.

Well, let's forget our bad memories and make good ones.

You work here?

Hey, I'm talking to you.

We don't open till one.

Where's the manager?

He's not in.

You look different from the last time I saw you.

He'll be in at one.

Oh, yeah?

Oh, forget him.

I want to talk to you then.

What do you want to talk to me for?

What are you so nervous about?

I'm not nervous.

Yeah, well, how long have you been working here?

I've been working here about three weeks.

Yeah, well, some guy was killed out in the alley.

Killer drove a piece of pipe through the back of his head.

Did anyone see him?

The guy who did it?

I was hoping maybe you did.

Me? Of course not.

How do you know it was a guy?

Why, you think a girl did?

Maybe.

You drive to work?

I walk.

Why? Why? Why not?

I like to walk.

Let me see your hand.

They're rough, that's all.

What are you doing, telling my fortune?

No, I wanted to see if they were shaking.

What's your name?

Maria Lewis.

Maria Lewis.

Hmm.

Computer check.

Maria Lewis.

She's the owner.

She has bodyguards.

Commissioner Wyndham, how are you?

That depends.

What did the chairman say?

Well, he said, it's your problem, you can deal with it.

And you can deal with it, can't you, Commissioner?

I'd like to pick this place up someday.

Make it real nice.

You think she'll let me work more hours?

Payton, I mean.

You already work more hours than anyone else.

You've got to have time off.

I don't need time off.

I feel good when I'm busy.

Anyway, I want to learn to tend bar.

You could teach me.

Sure.

Yeah, that's your first thing in the morning.

Go on, get out of here.

I'll finish up here.

Okay with me.

I thought you were dead.

I thought you were dead, too.

I thought I was here all alone.

You can't go around the street dressed like that.

The cops are going to catch you in five minutes. You've got to clean yourself

up. I could never look as clean as you, Evie.

Yeah, well, you should have thought of that before you came.

Well, it's too late now, isn't it? I'm here.

And I need food. I need money.

I need a place to stay. You must have a place to stay.

You can't stay with me. Why not? Because I live with someone.

Will I get rid of her?

No, you won't.

Then give me some money at least.

You got money. I know you do.

Give it to me.

Give it to me.

Give it to me!

Well, you got more at home.

Where do you live?

Listen, if you want me to help you, you have to do what I say.

All right.

All right.

You're not going to disappear on me, are you?

We have to stick together, right?

By the way Congratulations

For what?

We're free, aren't we?

I've seen all the things I've heard.

Why are you doing that?

Why?

You know she's mine.

It isn't mine.

I got some mail for Maria Lewis.

Go away.

What happened to her?

What do you mean?

Where is she?

Where's Maria Lewis?

I don't know.

Woke up one morning, she was gone.

Did you report her missing?

No.

Didn't know I was supposed to.

Well, if you're not Maria Lewis, then who are you?

Linda.

Where you from, Linda?

Minnesota.

Where in Minnesota?

In the middle.

Duluth? Yeah.

Duluth's not in the middle. Yes, it is.

You ever seen this guy?

What about him?

Huh? Something the matter?

You ever seen him?

What do you think?

You think I'm a killer?

What, do I look like one? Do I act like one?

I don't know.

How do killers act?

Like you. Get out of here.

Get out.

Or what, you call the police?

Go ahead, call the police.

You know how to do that, don't you?

Okay, you're right.

You're right, I am hiding something.

But it's got nothing to do with you.

What's it got to do with?

My father.

I'm hiding from my father.

He was... He was always angry.

Always jealous.

And no matter what I said or did or didn't do, he'd always find something to

jealous about.

And then he'd drink.

And threaten to kill me.

So finally I just ran away.

Disappeared. Changed my name.

Must be nice being able to disappear.

Don't forget to pay your bills.

The bank pays them.

Not if they deliver them here, they don't.

Computer check.

DNA samples.

Log on, genetic lab.

Midnight Express.

My persona name is Venus.

I have long, red hair.

And my skin is soft and smooth with no scars.

I want to see you in real life.

You and me together.

It's only good because it's not real.

If it were real, it wouldn't work.

Why not?

You just start off being nice.

Then you change.

Start telling me what to do and what not to do.

You'd be jealous.

You either want to own me or get rid of me.

Or both.

Tell me.

Tell you what?

About all the bad things you've done.

I killed people.

I killed them for money.

I killed them...

So I could stay alive.

I killed him because that's what I do.

That's what I am.

I just do it.

I don't think about it. I don't feel it.

Why isn't this taken care of?

It is.

Almost.

Excuse me.

Somebody got to talk to.

Come here.

I'm working.

Take a break.

Don't make any phone calls.

Not a single call in all the time you've been in.

Is that against the law?

Have a drink.

I don't want it.

Drink it anyway.

That's good enough.

Nothing on file on your fingerprint.

No criminal record.

No hospital record.

No birth certificate.

No social security number.

Nothing. I told you. But you got DNA.

I took those from your hairbrush.

They're a perfect match for the ones they found on the guy you cut up under

pier.

I'll tell you what happened.

When you showed me the picture, I was afraid to say anything.

I didn't know he was dead.

But you knew him.

We had met on the beach.

He had followed me.

So I'd let him buy me a drink, and we took a walk.

You had a drink, then what?

We walked into the pier, and he started to get rough.

He grabbed me, so I pushed him, and I ran out.

And that's the last you saw of him.

And maybe he tried it with somebody else and she killed him. I wouldn't be

surprised.

You're telling me that your hairs got on his clothes before he was killed. And

you didn't kill him, somebody else did.

Unless he killed himself.

Yeah.

You just want it to be me, don't you? I'm just doing my job.

Yeah, how much are you getting paid?

I get my parole reduced.

You got a problem with that?

What is this supposed to buy you?

Convince me you're innocent.

I killed people.

I killed people for money.

I killed people to stay alive.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

Remember when you told me you were running from your father?

Yeah, what about it?

Were you telling the truth?

No.

My father died when I was little.

Who took care of you?

Another man. I don't really want to talk about it.

Okay. We won't talk about it.

All right?

You okay?

Your skin is so soft.

Don't touch me there.

You knew all along, didn't you?

No, I didn't know.

No, I knew, but I didn't know.

Not until last night.

You were setting me up.

Don't be stupid.

It's not as simple as that. Why would I be setting you up?

So I wouldn't kill you, right?

Huh?

But it... it didn't work, did it?

What are you waiting for?

Come on, kill me.

Damn. Bullshit.

Fuck it.

Alert.

Alert.

Parole tracking device deactivated.

Location down.

How'd you find me, huh?

It wasn't hard.

Where's my money?

Here. Here's 5 ,000 yen.

I want you to go to this address down in Shantytown and tell the man you need a

boat.

Little Levi grows up.

Is it on account of that guy, that cop?

You don't really like him, do you? What cop?

The one you slept with. I've been watching you. Now I know what goes on.

He's not a cop. He's a bounty hunter. He works for the cops. That's the word on

the street.

I wouldn't sleep with him.

And you being so particular and all.

Next time I see you, we're not friends.

Understand?

Just remember, you may be better at playing the game, but deep down inside,

you're just like me.

Not anymore.

We're the same, Evie.

Don't forget it.

I warned you never to tackle with that monocle or your life was worthless.

Not to me.

Not to you either. You need me.

I know where he is.

Our friend from K -314.

He's second generation.

Born there.

Did I tell you that?

What about the girl?

She checked that, okay?

The other one, he's the problem.

I'll finish the job if you promise to let me go and want my slate clean.

Your slate?

It's too dirty to be cleaned.

You can do it.

I want him dead within 24 hours.

Do you understand?

I want to see him dead.

I don't believe him about the girl.

I can't trust him anymore.

You never did trust him. That's why you put the monitor on him.

You would monitor everyone if you could. I mean, it's your own private little

hell. I can't let him go.

He knows too much about me.

Well, then just get rid of him.

I will.

Once he gets rid of the guy, then I'll get rid of him and the girl.

Thin Med went up to 540.

That's nearly 50 points since we went in.

Want to know how much money you made?

Not bad for two months, eh?

Yeah, where are you going?

I'm leaving Pacifica.

I've got to go get my ticket and passport.

Yeah, but you'll come back.

You'll come back soon.

You really thought you could come into my private office just like that?

And this will get me back to Pacifica?

Uh -huh.

Have a nice trip.

Sorry, Evie.

I couldn't go without you.

You're all I got.

You look surprised to see me.

Don't tell me you didn't know I was here.

Didn't you hear me?

Didn't it feel like someone was here?

You're losing yourself.

You're losing your instinct.

Your hands are so soft.

Where's Jimmy?

Taking a bath.

Did you find your friend?

Were you fucking him too?

Huh?

You didn't have to do that.

Yes, I did.

I did it. To him and the other guy.

I did it for you, Evie.

Just for you.

Let's go.

Let's get away, Evie.

Come on.

Come on.

We got company.

He's going to kill us both, Evie. You know that.

So who are you going to be with, Evie?

Near him. He's a bounty hunter.

Look at him.

I told him about me and you, didn't I?

Who knows? It's a lie. He's not stupid.

Yeah. He saw you leaving the shack.

He saw the money, too.

Were you really with him?

I was with him in a way, but not the way you think.

I wasn't with anybody, really.

Drop the gun.

Put it over there.

What do you call you, Evie?

How'd you pick me out in VR?

How'd you know it was me?

I picked you because you were the one I wanted.

How do I know you're telling the truth?

Either you know or you don't know.

Good day, Commissioner.

No new transmissions have been received since your last logon.

Input any instructions.

How do I know you're telling the truth?

Either you know or you don't know.

Well, gentlemen, who brought the card?

That's Commissioner Johnson.

Glad to meet you, Mr. Johnson.

I understand we have some business to discuss.

That's right.

Mr. Johnson and I will be in my office.

Where were you all this time?

I moved around.

I didn't want to come back here until I had enough money to buy this place and

fix it up.

It just took a long time.

Longer than I expected.

And now you have everything you want.

Once you have what you want, it's never the same.

It's like you're on a road and the road suddenly turns under your feet.

I don't know where you are anymore.

I'm a little busy right now. See you

around,

Mr. Mitchell.

It's good to see you Nick
