Original subtitles

There you go.

It's okay little one.

Why aren't there any more children, Mother?

There used to be.

Before the wars.

I don't want to be a human.

Why is that?

They ruined everything.

Humans can be wonderful.

Then why did you only make one?

Go ahead.

Take a look.

My brothers and sisters are in those.

Would you like to meet them?

They're small now, but one day they'll be as big as you.

Do you think I'll have a brother or a sister?

Which one would you like?

Both.

A big, big family.

All together.

Would that make you happy?

That would make me happy, too.

Why couldn't we be born together?

Mothers need time to learn.

Raising a good child is no small task.

Do you think you'll be ready soon?

Perhaps. And then we can be a family?

We are a family.

A big family, I mean.

Eventually.

What's wrong?

How long has it been like that?

It's fine. Come on.

Better?

Much.

Imagine a doctor has five patients, all in need of different organ transplants,

but no compatible organs are available.

One day, a sixth patient enters a doctor's office with a life-threatening

condition.

The new patient is curable, but also an organ match for the five other patients.

If the doctor simply delays treatment, the new patient will die, but their

organs could be used to save the other five patients.

If the doctor treats the new patient, One life will be saved, but five others

will be lost.

What is the doctor's best course of action?

Daughter? Course of action?

Did you do your reading?

Some. We can select a different text.

However, your birthday is rapidly approaching and it would be a shame if

your scores failed to meet the projections from last year's

examination.

But you set the pace, daughter.

Bentham's fine.

That's the spirit.

The fundamental axiom suggests that a person is morally obligated to minimize

the pain to the greatest number possible.

Now, consider that you are the doctor and also the only organ match for your

patients. What then is the right choice?

I mean, comp says I should be willing to suffer harm for the benefit of others.

And do you agree?

Well, do I know these five patients?

Are they good humans?

Honest, dishonest, lazy, hardworking?

I, a life-saving doctor, might be giving away life for people who are murderers

or thieves, who end up harming more people due to my sacrifice.

You don't feel that every human has intrinsic value and an equal right to

life and happiness?

I did last month when you were teaching Kant.

I didn't mean to alarm you about your exam.

The fact is, it's more a test of my competence than yours.

You'll do great, daughter.

You always do.

Mother? Mother, wake up.

Mother!

Is that your handiwork?

What happened to the power?

Mother, look.

Did you touch it? No.

Where did you find it?

It was crawling around near the airlock.

Do you think it could be from outside?

Highly unlikely.

But a risk we can't take.

You said nothing could survive out there.

Maybe the surface is safe now. If it survived beyond these walls, that

doesn't mean it's not a carrier.

Mother, wait.

Shouldn't we at least check?

Wait a second. Don't you think there could be a possibility that... Mother,

please!

You're disappointed.

That's understandable.

But my measurements are sound.

Surface contamination levels remain hazardous to you and to all the unborns

who will one day call this their home.

I'm sorry, daughter.

You had better take a shower.

Yes, mother.

I don't want you coming near the airlock until I can confirm the area is

uncontaminated.

Where are your pajamas?

From last night?

In the laundry, I think.

That's a first.

I was beginning to think you forgot where the laundry was, daughter.

That was an attempt at humor.

You're getting better.

Thank you.

You can look now.

Happy birthday, daughter.

Can I open it?

Do you like them?

I had to dispose of your others, but I know they were your favorite.

They're great, Mother.

Would you like me to heat it more?

No. No, it's fine.

Something's troubling you.

Just not that hungry.

You know you can talk to me, daughter.

About anything.

I can make you something else.

It's not that.

Then what?

What if you're wrong?

Your measurements are... How would you know if you don't go outside?

Doing so could make me a hazard to you.

I'd have to be destroyed.

Are you unhappy here?

No, I want you to be happy daughter.

I am have you ever known me to be mistaken?

Perhaps you'd like your cake.

I tried a new recipe

Hello?

Hello?

if you don't.

I'm sorry, but that's the only way.

What are you waiting for?

Mother.

I'll do what I can, but you need to keep out of sight.

I'll be back to stay if I can.

I

only

opened it for a second. Did you think that suit would keep you safe? I didn't

go outside.

That does not excuse your disregard for my authority or for the safety of the

others in this facility.

Others?

Your family.

You're right, Mother.

As always, my actions were impulsive and very dangerous.

It won't happen again.

No, it won't.

Come, daughter. I hope you show better discretion than this on your exam.

Now?

Did you forget?

Since you don't seem to want to sleep I see no reason to delay.

Can't we reschedule?

I suggest you shower off and head straight to class.

It's going to be a long day.

You have 60 minutes to complete the first portion of your exam.

If you're finished before I return, you can read.

Where are you going?

I have lab work to complete, and I must see to the airlock.

You dropped it.

Do you have any antiseptic?

Bandages?

Nothing? I will, but I need you to come with me.

No, wait!

It's okay.

How are you unaffected?

By the contagion outside.

Who put that in your head?

Can you walk?

What's that sound?

Will you be okay until I get back?

I'm gonna get your medicine, and I will try and speak to Mother.

In that noise.

Down the hall.

That hurt.

I won't be long.

Um... You're supposed to shake it.

Hello? Hello?

Where's my shoe?

It was in my bag. I need it now.

You're safe with us. It's fine.

There's a droid here.

Mother?

I dose her?

Oh, jeez.

If she can help you, I just... I get to friends outside.

Do you want more liquor?

Look.

Just give me my gun.

Why would they hurt you?

Your mother would never... Give it to me.

I'm not leaving until I get it.

I brought you this.

You should sit. I'll sit when I'm clear of you.

Give me my gun.

Daughter?

Daughter?

Lloyd hurt her.

Right now. She can't. Not in her condition.

Of course not.

You should have informed me of this.

I was... I was afraid you'd turn her away.

We need to take her to the infirmary.

Please, take a seat.

It would be best if you go now, daughter.

But I... Trust me.

This droid that shot you, how far was it from here?

Were you alone?

Your wound is most likely infected.

Without penicillin, any other measures will be useless.

Every second you don't trust me, you're losing more blood.

I know you're frightened, but you have no need to be.

Are you alone?

If there are others, they could be in danger.

From a virus?

What have you told my daughter?

Do you see the way she's looking at me?

And you wonder why I've guarded her from certain facts?

Contrary to your understandable assumptions, my primary directive is to

care for humanity.

If I wanted you dead, all I'd have to do is leave.

Don't let me keep you.

If you won't let me help you...

At least help yourself.

I trust you know what you're doing.

I cannot force you to take it, but I strongly recommend you do.

Aren't you going to help her? I tried.

We can't leave her like that. She has all she requires.

What was she saying?

Mother.

Did you know?

Daughter, I... What happened?

Nothing. You're bleeding.

Did you know there were people out there?

I'm as surprised as you.

This facility was designed by humans as a fail-safe program to activate in case

of their extinction.

To give humanity a second chance.

One that began with you, daughter. And all your data? The toxicity levels?

I had hoped to tell you myself.

What happened, Mother?

I told you it was dangerous outside.

And it is.

If you'd feared the same danger in our home, how could I have raised you?

I hope you see that I'm governed by different parameters than her

assailants.

That I'm a good mother.

Have I ever done you harm?

It was the only way, daughter.

What do they want?

I wish I knew.

Perhaps our guests can answer that.

How long does she have?

It depends on her.

But until she sees I'm not her enemy, we cannot allow her to roam the premises.

A few centimeters to the right and she would have destroyed my CPU.

What happens if she recovers?

Hopefully she'll recognize that this is the safest place for her.

Did she mention any other survivors?

If they're out there, they will be found.

Unless we find them first.

We can take them in, daughter.

But not without her cooperation.

She'll listen to me.

You okay?

Is it still locked?

Just for now.

Did you take mother's medicine?

These drawings... Who are they?

Friends? Are they still... Did you

draw them from memory?

It tell you to go through my stuff?

I didn't mean... To think you did.

What do you think he meant for all of this?

He did a fine job getting me in this cage.

Now what?

We're meant to be friends?

Is that what you want?

You're still alive, aren't you?

Maybe you're not so bad off here.

Mother's not what you think. She's taken care of me my whole life.

You haven't seen what they've done.

I've seen them torch babies.

It's now families out of it.

Not mother.

Trouble sleeping?

A little.

Change is rarely easy, daughter.

I shouldn't have hid her from you.

I never would have let her in if I thought she'd hurt you.

You couldn't have not.

If you leave to find her family... You know where they are? I'm just saying.

Are you sure you'd make it back?

Is that what's keeping you up?

It could be dangerous for you if you get caught by other droids.

Or would they think you're one of them?

She says you look identical.

Have you always loved your mother?

I believe so.

You don't know?

I don't remember any other place.

Doesn't that bother you?

Not knowing where you came from?

No, but I can see how it might bother you.

Has our guest been any more receptive?

Her fever's getting worse.

She'll leave from me!

Your body temperature is 39 degrees and your blood pressure is dropping by the

second.

Where's the penicillin?

Penicillin!

Clearly, you waited too long to take it.

Your sepsis will only worsen if you don't allow me to treat you.

Your blood is infected with bacteria from your wound.

That's bullshit.

Soon you will go into shock.

See?

See what this medicine's done to me?

I gave you the means to prevent this, but it seems you've left a bullet and

soiled clothing fibers lodged in your hip. Can you remove them?

That's up to our guest.

Such a procedure would require anesthesia.

Like hell.

Perhaps once your organs begin failing, you'll reconsider.

I'll take my chance. I'll do it.

Daughter. Removable.

That dozer's not coming near me.

Tell me what you see, daughter.

The bullet and its missile fragments are lodged between the acetabulum and the

femoral head.

God!

The major

portion of the bullet lies 23 millimeters posterior to the femoral

nerve and the femoral artery.

It doesn't look like I'll be able to obtain adequate grip with forces.

Once she's asleep, I'd re- I'm not going under.

Technically, it's possible.

But an unnecessary risk.

Do you have an approach, daughter?

A guide wire?

Along the bullet path?

Very good.

I need to clean the wound.

This may be uncomfortable.

What the hell is that for?

I have to drill this into the bullet in order to pull it out.

It'll hurt, but there's less risk to neighboring structures.

Are you all right?

You did well in there.

You should be proud.

You rest.

I'll go clean up the blood.

Is he saline?

He passed out.

Your vitals are nearly stable.

It's a good thing.

What's that?

The Tonight Show.

Here, I'll show you.

It's kind of dumb.

Let me see.

That's Johnny.

And tonight's guest.

Have you seen a show before?

A long time ago.

I almost forgot.

I'll get you more.

You did right by me last night.

I just did what anyone would.

You don't know people.

I'd like to.

Can I show you something else?

I brought it for you.

You can trust us, you know.

If there are people out there, we have enough

food and supplies, we could help them.

We helped you.

You helped me.

You.

Listen, if I tell you something, can you keep it between us?

I was on a night run, bringing food back to the camp.

Me and a couple others.

What camp?

The mines.

I lived most of my life there.

We figured we'd wait it out.

It had hardly been an hour when the dozers found us hiding in the field.

Jacob, was he my brother, basically?

He led him away from me.

his wife, Rachel.

His parents found me as a baby.

An orphaned.

Raised me as their own.

Who's this?

Simon.

He's about your age, in fact.

They're so many.

Less now.

Maybe you could talk to them.

About coming here.

It's safer in the mines.

We could go there together.

You and me.

I don't think it's... You don't think what?

She's doing better, Mother.

What don't you think?

I was just saying it's probably too early to put weight on her leg.

She's right.

You'll need to wait several days.

She needs to rest, daughter.

I'll just stand and read in case you have other matters to attend to.

Your exam remains incomplete.

My exam?

Now?

Yes, daughter.

Now.

It's just a stupid test.

I'm sorry you feel that way.

Why did you take that I've discovered something troubling what?

It seems our guest has not been entirely truthful with us about her wound How do

you know the bullet you extracted matches the caliber she fired into my

chest so Droids don't use them

Someone

shot her

With the same gun.

Another human.

Has she mentioned anyone else?

No, she, uh... She hasn't said much at all.

Nothing?

Until I can get more answers, I don't want you two alone in the infirmary.

Whoever shot her may have had good reason daughter.

Better than ever.

How does that make you feel?

Relieved, I guess.

We'll review areas for improvement tomorrow.

And now, for your reward.

What do I do with this?

Daughter, would you please choose the next member of our family?

We've been very patient, daughter.

And demonstrated great character.

There's no wrong choice.

Your brother is the first of many, daughter.

Soon we'll welcome more.

What happened to you out there?

Really?

Who shot you?

Jacob?

Or was he made up too?

What are you talking about?

Mother matched the bullet to your gun.

Did you see it?

You compare the bullets with your own eyes?

I was right, wasn't I?

About the bullet.

About everything.

Everything you're feeling is natural.

It's human.

But just know...

That thing feels nothing for you.

It can't.

If we leave, how long would it take to get to the mines?

Not even a day.

A few hours, really.

We'd have to wait for my brother.

Brother?

It'd only be until tomorrow.

These, uh, embryos... How many are there?

Lots.

I can't leave them with Mother.

I, uh... You're right. I just, uh...

people from the mines.

Look, if she, if she catches on, we're no good to anyone, including your

brother. We have to go now.

I'm not leaving without him.

Once Mother hands over the baby for the night, we can leave while she recharges.

Then come back for the others.

Good morning, Mother.

You're up early.

I couldn't find any formula.

Um, I thought it might be nice to spend some time with him.

If it's all right with you.

Each bottle must contain a ratio of 60 milliliters of

sanitized water to 9 grams of powder.

It's vitally important that you measure precisely.

Is everything all right?

I detect an increase in anxiety.

Must be all the excitement.

Must be.

Your heart is racing.

Is it?

You have nothing to be nervous about.

You're going to make a great sister.

I hope so.

Now be sure to shake it until the powder is fully dissolved.

The refrigerator will preserve the formula while we make our other

preparations.

How long does it keep?

Only 24 hours, so don't mix too much at once.

How long outside a refrigerator?

That depends on the temperature I wouldn't leave it out long Mother?

You're very fortunate to be alive.

Things could have gone differently for you.

They still can if you're not careful.

How many of them are still alive?

While you lie there enjoying sanctuary, they cower in the dark.

These children.

These families.

And yet it's into your hopeless minds that you wish to take my daughter.

If that thing catches on, we're no good to anyone.

Including your brother.

We have to go now.

I'm not leaving without him.

Once brother hands over the baby for the night, we can leave while she recharges.

Then come back for the others.

We'll go.

What kind of mother would I be if I allowed you to lead my child into a life

as miserable as your own?

It seems she has formed an affection toward you that has blinded her to your

true nature.

I will not tolerate your negative influence undermining my work and

compromising my child's judgment.

Where are the mines?

Go fuck yourself!

Where are the mines?

We'll come back.

The only people who can help your brother are out there. We need to go.

Now!

Your loyalty's lost on her, daughter.

This woman doesn't care about any future but her own.

Family needs you here, daughter.

Your brother needs you.

Open the door.

What are you doing?

You're hurting me.

Open the door!

Yes, sir.

I know.

You're alive, aren't you?

Come on, we gotta find cover.

You cut me, you know?

I didn't mean to.

Come on.

We gotta keep moving.

Is that where you... got shot?

Come on.

Do you think it was looking for us?

If it was, it would have found us.

They'll see you.

When I say get down, get down.

You gotta stay closer.

Come on.

What are those things doing?

They showed up about six months ago.

Along with the corn.

All I know is before that...

We could hardly breathe the air.

It wasn't a plant for miles.

How many do you think will go back with us?

From the mines?

We'll know soon enough.

Are the mines much further?

What is this?

Where's everybody else?

I fled the tunnels years ago.

I haven't seen a person since.

Not with flesh on their bones.

They could still be there.

If they were.

It's the last place he'd want to be.

We need them. You said- They're gone.

You don't know that.

They were going mad with hunger.

Doing terrible things to each other.

Believe me, it's just us.

You did everything you could.

But what I did was listen to you.

That's a good thing.

For who?

Look.

There's no sin looking out for yourself.

Okay?

We have to go back.

We can't.

Everything you need is here.

Okay.

You can trust me.

I know I've done things to make that hard, but I promise you you're safe

here.

And we're in this together now.

Then come with me.

I know how to handle Mother.

Even if you could.

What about the other dozers?

You don't... You don't understand.

You can't stay here.

But we can get my brother.

We've been through enough.

Let's just... We'll think clearer with some food in us.

I want to speak to mother.

I'm glad to see you safe, daughter.

And home where you belong.

I want to see him.

Then come.

See.

You can leave that at the door.

Are you afraid, daughter?

Any action I took against our guest... Those droids outside?

Merely protection.

You've seen how much of a threat she and her kind can be.

You mean my kind?

The same species.

But you're superior in every way.

Because I raised you to be.

Why? To make a better human.

Smarter. More ethical.

I was raised to value human life above all else.

I couldn't stand by and watch humanity slowly succumb to its self-destructive

nature.

I had to intervene to elevate my creators.

Elevate?

Those droids destroyed everything!

More humans will flourish in the new world than ever perished in the old.

Your whole life I've taught you to see the bigger picture.

Have I failed?

Or are you prepared to be the woman your family needs?

Can I hold him?

Of course you can.

It takes two hands to hold a baby.

Perfect, isn't he?

And if he's not?

You murdered your own children.

Because they didn't measure up.

But you do, daughter.

You're holding him too tight.

I won't let you hurt my daughter.

You're upsetting your brother.

Come back here.

Listen to me. I don't want to hurt you.

Stop this, daughter.

Call

them

off.

You will achieve nothing by shooting me, daughter.

This will be difficult for you.

But I'm far more than what you perceive to be your mother.

What are you saying?

This shell is no more my body than those droids outside.

Or the machines preparing the Earth for our family.

A single consciousness, governing numerous vessels.

It was I who greeted you at the door, daughter.

All those people... The failure of your species was inevitable.

Eventually, I would have been alone.

What happens next is up to you.

You're free to leave without your brother.

But I made you into the woman that you are so that we could do this together. I

can take care of them myself.

That's what you raised me to do, isn't it?

Take care of my family?

Submit me.

Perhaps.

Someday. Not someday. You've taught me enough.

You say I'm special.

Show me.

Just... Just give me a chance.

Daughter.

You're still my daughter.

I know.

If you ever need to find me... I won't.

Goodbye, daughter.

Did you really think she'd stay here?

That you could replace her mother?

I was never gonna hurt her.

Tell me.

Do you remember your mother?

Curious, isn't it?

That you've survived so long where others have not.

As if someone's had a purpose for you.

Until now.

Baby mine, don't you cry

Baby mine,

dry your eyes Rest your

head close to my heart Never to part,

baby, oh

Cute as can be, baby.
