1
00:00:40,469 --> 00:00:41,469
something else.

2
00:00:42,579 --> 00:00:43,579
Sounds perfect.

3
00:00:56,869 --> 00:00:57,990
rather have the big house

4
00:00:57,990 --> 00:00:59,250
to themselves than come along

5
00:00:59,270 --> 00:01:00,869
for a company event with their mother.

6
00:01:01,859 --> 00:01:03,329
I'm sure they're up to no good.

7
00:01:04,745 --> 00:01:06,530
I suppose some things never change,

8
00:01:06,549 --> 00:01:07,549
do they?

9
00:01:14,299 --> 00:01:15,299
I still can't believe

10
00:01:15,305 --> 00:01:16,109
it took you this long

11
00:01:16,111 --> 00:01:17,319
to come see the new house.

12
00:01:18,189 --> 00:01:19,680
It's been finished for some time.

13
00:01:20,349 --> 00:01:21,349
- Yes.

14
00:01:22,670 --> 00:01:24,700
Things have been a bit hectic.

15
00:01:25,469 --> 00:01:26,469
- Recently.

16
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:28,560
Well.

17
00:01:29,150 --> 00:01:31,079
Maybe this will help you feel better.

18
00:01:32,444 --> 00:01:33,444
- Thank you.

19
00:01:35,522 --> 00:01:35,923
So,

20
00:01:35,924 --> 00:01:38,310
I take it you already prepped your outfit

21
00:01:38,340 --> 00:01:39,340
for tomorrow?

22
00:01:40,069 --> 00:01:42,180
Yeah, um, about that...

23
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,200
You still haven't told

24
00:01:44,260 --> 00:01:46,069
us anything about the ceremony.

25
00:01:48,879 --> 00:01:50,329
It's nothing special, really.

26
00:01:51,129 --> 00:01:52,980
I'll be giving a speech beyond

27
00:01:53,069 --> 00:01:54,069
that, Will.

28
00:01:55,049 --> 00:01:56,049
You'll see.

29
00:01:56,739 --> 00:01:57,560
They like to use these

30
00:01:57,561 --> 00:01:59,379
ceremonies to celebrate advancements.

31
00:02:01,989 --> 00:02:03,400
This year's been quite...

32
00:02:04,439 --> 00:02:05,439
substantial.

33
00:02:08,990 --> 00:02:09,990
What about you?

34
00:02:11,750 --> 00:02:13,110
What have you been up to?

35
00:02:14,659 --> 00:02:16,909
Oh, um, just...

36
00:02:17,949 --> 00:02:19,990
getting Damon ready for the semester.

37
00:02:20,900 --> 00:02:21,900
Oh?

38
00:02:22,379 --> 00:02:23,620
Yeah, and...

39
00:02:24,530 --> 00:02:25,319
James has been out

40
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:26,349
of town for a few weeks,

41
00:02:26,365 --> 00:02:27,479
so I've just been taking

42
00:02:27,539 --> 00:02:29,169
care of his errands and,

43
00:02:29,170 --> 00:02:30,169
you know.

44
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,000

45
00:02:39,580 --> 00:02:40,650
It's getting late,

46
00:02:40,651 --> 00:02:42,110
we should probably wrap things up

47
00:02:42,111 --> 00:02:43,250
so we can be ready in time

48
00:02:43,251 --> 00:02:44,250
for tomorrow.

49
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:52,840
- Wait.

50
00:02:54,689 --> 00:02:56,159
You said one drink.

51
00:02:57,090 --> 00:02:58,849
And you haven't even seen the pool

52
00:02:58,850 --> 00:02:59,539
yet.

53
00:02:59,540 --> 00:02:59,824

00:02:59,825 --> 00:03:00,419
I don't know

55
00:03:00,420 --> 00:03:01,879
if that's such a good idea.

56
00:03:02,479 --> 00:03:03,909
It was a really long day.

57
00:03:04,550 --> 00:03:07,009
And I didn't even bring a bikini

58
00:03:07,010 --> 00:03:08,210
and, and...

59
00:03:11,750 --> 00:03:13,050

60
00:03:13,349 --> 00:03:14,639
fit you perfectly.

61
00:03:16,770 --> 00:03:17,770
- Wait.

63
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:04,520

Are you sure you don't

65
00:04:46,670 --> 00:04:48,970
have anything a bit less revealing?

66
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,000
Come on.

67
00:04:51,154 --> 00:04:52,170
It fits perfectly.

68
00:04:56,805 --> 00:04:58,290
- I'm glad you find it amusing.

69
00:05:01,149 --> 00:05:02,149
What do you think of the pool?

70
00:05:03,540 --> 00:05:04,540
That's lovely, Bec.

71
00:05:04,879 --> 00:05:05,879
Really.

72
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,139

74
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:11,879
- Please.

Being the best has its perks.

Loyalty isn't exactly

in their corporate vocabulary.

78
00:05:19,790 --> 00:05:20,790
- Well.

79
00:05:20,970 --> 00:05:22,399
At least you're humble about it.

80
00:05:24,550 --> 00:05:26,399
you know my friends

Does he know?

What have you said?

He's 18.

He can manage on his own.

He'll--

I'll be fine.

they can't stop.

197
00:14:00,490 --> 00:14:01,509
They make themselves sick.

198
00:14:03,914 --> 00:14:05,460
It became clear we needed

199
00:14:05,461 --> 00:14:06,909
to change our approach.

200
00:14:07,870 --> 00:14:08,980
The host's body couldn't

201
00:14:08,985 --> 00:14:10,730
be trusted to manage the system alone.

202
00:14:11,664 --> 00:14:12,664
We needed...

203
00:14:13,990 --> 00:14:15,039
impartial medium.

204
00:14:16,019 --> 00:14:17,019
Something...

205
00:14:17,799 --> 00:14:19,159
Something that wouldn't be swayed

206
00:14:19,279 --> 00:14:20,279
by the body's desire.

207
00:14:22,750 --> 00:14:23,750
to that swing.

208
00:14:26,644 --> 00:14:27,580
- We needed a way

209
00:14:27,581 --> 00:14:29,179
to stabilize the hormones

210
00:14:29,180 --> 00:14:30,179
and you.

211
00:14:30,625 --> 00:14:31,629
- You had something no

212
00:14:31,630 --> 00:14:32,629
other subject did.

213
00:14:36,870 --> 00:14:38,450
in uncharted waters, Tim.

214
00:14:39,899 --> 00:14:40,820
You're still the only

215
00:14:40,821 --> 00:14:42,059
successful human trial.

216
00:14:42,860 --> 00:14:43,769
Even I'm not sure what's

217
00:14:43,770 --> 00:14:45,460
causing symptoms to begin only now.

218
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:49,940
That isn't the injections doing.

219
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:52,750
Your condition is seeping

220
00:14:52,759 --> 00:14:54,049
through the cracks.

221
00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:56,437
The injection has begun

222
00:14:56,438 --> 00:14:57,437
to malfunction.

223
00:15:00,210 --> 00:15:01,259
Look, just...

224
00:15:01,919 --> 00:15:03,070
Whatever you've been doing.

225
00:15:04,100 --> 00:15:05,100
keep doing it.

226
00:15:05,990 --> 00:15:06,850
I'll do my best to buy

227
00:15:06,850 --> 00:15:08,120
us some time before eight.

228
00:15:28,639 --> 00:15:29,639
I'm sure you'll be fine.

229
00:15:50,909 --> 00:15:51,740
And go check on your mother,

230
00:15:51,740 --> 00:15:52,740
Damon.

231
00:19:54,234 --> 00:19:55,234
So much to drink.

232
00:19:56,944 --> 00:19:58,039
You can't keep doing this to me,

233
00:19:58,040 --> 00:19:59,039
Damon.

234
00:20:04,799 --> 00:20:06,000
It's a one time thing.

235
00:20:08,900 --> 00:20:09,900
- She was right.

236
00:20:14,484 --> 00:20:15,484
- Isn't she?

237
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:24,680
you down.

238
00:20:26,029 --> 00:20:27,029
from living.

239
00:20:48,130 --> 00:20:49,130
- Jesus.

240
00:20:51,460 --> 00:20:52,460
She misses how...

241
00:20:53,470 --> 00:20:55,220
Simple things used to be.

242
00:21:00,690 --> 00:21:02,700
This is the only thing that works,

243
00:21:02,701 --> 00:21:03,700
I...

244
00:21:05,345 --> 00:21:06,029
I'm sorry I let you down,

245
00:21:06,030 --> 00:21:07,029
Mom.

246
00:21:11,619 --> 00:21:12,619
Look at me.

247
00:21:18,855 --> 00:21:19,855
I am so proud.

248
00:21:24,079 --> 00:21:25,079
- Things are just.

249
00:21:25,789 --> 00:21:26,789
complicated.

250
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:36,720
- You're hurting.

251
00:21:38,369 --> 00:21:39,779
But maybe once tomorrow

252
00:21:39,819 --> 00:21:41,470
comes I can try again and ask

253
00:21:41,539 --> 00:21:42,539
if she-

254
00:23:53,710 --> 00:23:54,710
- Okay, bye.

255
00:24:15,835 --> 00:24:16,869
I know you must have

256
00:24:16,870 --> 00:24:18,240
been struggling all day.

257
00:24:26,910 --> 00:24:28,190
It's just you and me, darling.

258
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,180
Feel my hand against your skin.

259
00:24:34,529 --> 00:24:35,529
- Damon.

260
00:24:36,109 --> 00:24:37,109
What are you doing?

261
00:25:26,079 --> 00:25:27,079
Take off your shoes.

262
00:26:43,295 --> 00:26:44,295
- You okay?

263
00:26:50,650 --> 00:26:52,690
Keep pumping until the pain is over.

264
00:27:10,049 --> 00:27:11,049
- Runa.

265
00:27:12,259 --> 00:27:13,259
(gasps)

266
00:28:09,219 --> 00:28:09,619
Be sure

267
00:28:09,620 --> 00:28:10,690
to let it all out inside

268
00:28:10,700 --> 00:28:11,700
Mummy's mouth.

269
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:13,680
Okay, sweetheart.

270
00:28:22,049 --> 00:28:23,555

[BLANK_AUDIO]

272
00:29:52,390 --> 00:29:53,390
What are you doing?

273
00:29:57,150 --> 00:29:58,150
I think we should...

274
00:32:22,690 --> 00:32:23,690
it all I could.

275
00:32:25,954 --> 00:32:26,954
- I know it a lot, darling.

276
00:32:28,509 --> 00:32:29,509
For better.

277
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:42,569
tomorrow so well.

278
00:32:44,204 --> 00:32:45,170
I don't want you to go

279
00:32:45,171 --> 00:32:46,170
get cleaned up and...

280
00:32:46,734 --> 00:32:47,734
We can get some.

281
00:33:03,950 --> 00:33:04,950
- What is this?

282
00:33:07,184 --> 00:33:08,184
- Wait, it's a--

283
00:33:08,970 --> 00:33:11,579
Really, not what it looks like.

284
00:33:11,599 --> 00:33:12,599
We were just--
