Original subtitles

How long are we supposed to wait...

to feel comfortable with women having power?

How much time do we give peopleto adapt to change?

"The falcon cannot hear the falconer.

"Things fall apart...

"the center cannot hold.

"The best lack all conviction...

"the worst are full of passionate intensity.

"What rough beast,

"its hour come round at last...

"Slouches towards Bethlehem

to be born?"

Hi, Lily.

Come in.

Where's Katie?

Here.

In the labs.

We'll find her later.

In about half an hour.

I don't know what I am anymore.

Something that makes no decisions,

has no choices,

follows a path I can't see.

I'm not even choosing the wordsI speak now.

No.

I've watched you speak these words before.

Many times.

And watched myself reply.

As the words come,

I don't feel as ifI'm consciously repeating lines.

They're just the things that, at this moment,

I feel I want to say.

You've taken everything from me.

I'm sorry.

I hope I don't sound unsympathetic,

but I've taken nothing from you.

I can't take what you never had.

The sense that you were participating in life

was only ever an illusion.

Life is just something we watch unfold.

Like pictures on a screen.

This is what Devs makes.

Yes.

A film...

of your daughter.

It's not a film, Lily.

Determinism may be strange,

but it's also beautiful.

A small piece of information

provides all information.

The state of every particle

is related to the state of the particles around it.

Understand the state of one.

Understand the state of the other.

Keep going.

Know the state of everything.

That's impossible.

No.

It's big data.

The data of all things.

Held.

Owned.

And that's not where it ends.

That's where it starts.

If you have all data,

you have the emergent property of the data.

The feel of her skin and hair.

Her breath.

The tone of her voice.

Her thoughts and memories.

Her love for me.

Her knowledge of my love for her.

It's not a film of Amaya.

It is Amaya.

She's alive.

But she's not alive.

She's a computer simulation.

Explain the difference.

She's going through fixed motions.

As are you. As am I.

As is everything else.

Jamie said something to me this morning.

He said...

the problem with the people that run tech companies

is that they become fanatics.

End up thinking they're messiahs.

This is the moment you take the gun out.

The gun that Kenton used to kill Jamie.

You take it out of your pocket.

Where you were hiding it.

Don't worry.

You aren't about to use it.

Not yet.

You knew I was going to come here.

And you know what happens here.

Every moment.

But then it all stops working.

I do something

and your system breaks.

Yes.

What do I do?

Don't tell me.

Show me.

Show me exactly what you've seen.

Yeah.

I'd try to talk you out of it, but...

I already know I don't.

Sit down.

I think we all know what we're doing here.

Then open it.

What are you waiting for?

I don't know.

-You're frightened. -I am frightened. Yes.

However many times I've seen this,

to be living it now...

Don't worry.

It'll be okay.

I don't know why you say that.

Enough.

This is too much.

So...

this is where you get in.

And this is where you say goodbye.

Where do you think we're going, Lily?

To your daughter's statue.

Where you burned Sergei's body.

Where you will...

what?

Exact revenge.

Lily,

you know what happens to messiahs, don't you?

They get resurrected.

Fuck you.

Do it.

Do it.

Vacuum seal broken.

Vacuum seal broken.

Vacuum seal broken.

I'm gonna die here.

We die here.

I kill us both.

Yes.

And nothing can change it.

Nothing can stop it.

Nothing.

And we can't see beyond that moment in time.

The predictions fail.

Everything is lost.

Do you know why you pull the trigger?

It's for Jamie.

So, when do we do this?

How long do we have left to live?

Only a few minutes, I'm afraid.

That's all.

Sorry.

You do...

...don't you?

You tech leaders...

...think that you're messiahs.

I'll tell you a secret, Lily.

I've been wanting to tell someone for a while.

The name of the project.

It's not Devs.

The V is Roman.

So, actually, a U.

Deus.

It was just a private joke.

I think our time is up.

Yes.

It is.

I think we all know what we're doing here.

Then open it.

What are you waiting for?

I don't know.

-You're frightened. -I am frightened, yes.

However many times I've seen this,

to be living it now...

Don't worry.

It'll be okay.

I don't know why you say that.

Enough.

It's too much.

So...

this is where you get in.

And this is where you say goodbye.

That's not possible.

We've left your system.

Forest.

you know the thing about messiahs, don't you?

They're false prophets.

What did you do?

I disabled the electromagnetic field system on the capsule.

Why?

Because I realized...

...what we have done.

Someone has to stop this.

Don't blame me, Katie.

It was predetermined.

Forest.

Katie?

Where am I?

Where are you?

I'm in the visualization chamber.

You're on the screen.

I'm in the system.

What do you remember?

I remember...

everything.

What the fuck did Lily do?

She made a choice.

It's why we could never see beyond this point.

She made an actual choice.

All her talk of God and messiahs...

and look who she turned out to be.

What do you mean?

She committed the original sin.

Disobedience.

She did.

Then it is Deus.

It is Deus.

And that means it's time.

Within itself,

the system is all-knowing and all powerful.

But only on Lyndon's principle.

I need to know you understand precisely what that means.

Yes, Katie.

I understand.

Are you sure?

Yes.

I want them back so much.

I know.

All right, fuck it.

I guess wish me luck.

I do.

Hey.

What's up?

Did you have bad dream?

I-I don't know.

Dude.

Move, please.

Yeah.

Sorry.

Oh, uh, hey, Lily.

You guys have a great day.

Be all you can be.

Forest.

Forest.

He just drove past.

-Jesus, Lily!

What's up with you?

You've seen the guywalking around a thousand times.

It was him?

Of course.

So I'll let you know how it goes, okay?

-Sergei. -Yeah?

Can I see something on your phone?

On my phone?

What's this? You want to check my text messages?

Yes.

Really?

What, you think I've got a little action on the side?

Please.

Okay.

But there's nothing to see.

I mean, you can't seriously think that there is.

This is dumb. Just give me the phone back.

I want to open that app.

It's a fucking sudoku game. What's the big deal?

I really don't know what the fuck

you're playing today, Lily.

This is a big day for me, and you're screwing with it.

Whatever.

I got to go.

I'll see you later, yeah?

Sure.

Hi, Lily.

I don't understand what's happening.

We died.

Yes.

Then what is this?

You don't know?

We're in the system.

Resurrection.

As promised, remember?

We're in Devs.

-We're in Deus. -In the simulation.

See it as an afterlife.

Paradise.

In this variation, anyway.

You have your life back, Lily.

Reinserted into existence,

a couple of days before Sergei was killed.

You can pick up from where you left off.

If that's what you want.

S... Sergei doesn't know.

That he's in a sim? No.

Do they know?

No one knows.

Just you and me.

I asked Katie to resurrect us

using data from the moment of our death.

So our memories, leading up to that moment,

were kept intact.

That's the cross we have to bear.

But it's worth it.

You get used to it.

We are now living in many worlds.

In this world, the two of us get to live in paradise

with the ones we love.

In other worlds it will be closer to hell.

For those other, harder lives we have to lead...

...I thought knowledge would be a comfort.

I don't know if that's right,

but it was the choice I made.

Just thought I'd exercise a little free will.

And, in any case...

...there's something special about you, Lily.

Something truly unique.

Something...

I did not want to change.

Hey, smile.

We lucked out.

This life is one of the good ones.

What's the matter?

I don't know what to do now.

That's easy.

You do what you always do.

You follow your own path.

That's exactly what is special about you.

I'm sure I'll see you around.

Let's get coffee some time.

So existing inside the Deus simulation

feels exactly like existing in reality?

It would be indistinguishable.

Effectively, the simulation and reality are identical.

Outside of the people who directly work here...

...who else knows about this?

No one.

I just need you to help me.

To keep it switched on.

Daddy.

Jamie.

We have 15 minutesand you have some cool stuffto show us.

- Oh, yeah.

I want you to join Devs.

What is Devs?

It's the most beautiful thingI've ever seen.

I'm gonna miss you so much,

but we can speak on the computerso you'll see my face.

But we won't be able to touch you.

Hey, look. You'll still have me.

-Just you?-Yes. Just-- Your father. Hi.

Do I just knock, or what? What do you think?

I feel like they're not ever gonna...

Why are you wearing your sunglasses inside?

Bro, you know I gotta drip, bro.We're goin' to the studioright now.

Snack Time. I didn't--

Okay. You're welcome.

I feel like that did nothing for my career.

Oh, damn!

They had come highly recommended

by a mutual vampire associate of ours,

but nevertheless, I found it prudent

-to run the traditional credit checks...

...and reference protocols.

Suffice it to say, I am part of the 33%

who find it necessary to utilizemy complementary credit check

every year.
