Mum!

Mum, look.

Look what I found.

I named him Alfred. Don't you think he looks like an Alfred?

He really does.

Think you should let him go?

Pretty sure Alfred doesn't want to be trapped in a prison like that.

How would I watch him grow then?

I'm afraid that you won't.

Sometimes we have to let things go because we can't keep them forever.

One day you'll be a grown man,

and I'll have to let you go.

Because I can't keep you forever.

Don't be silly.

I'll live with you and Daddy forever.

Mum!

Mum!

Mum!

Wake up.

I'm sure your father told you all about me.

But he probably left out the bit that explains why we're truly here.

You and me.

Look at them.

They came on this trip because they made the choice to forget their past.

And now they're all stuck in here as well.

Your mother has fooled you.

She has fooled all of us.

She's the only person who can get us out of here.

If you're brave enough, I can show you the truth.

Eyk.

Maura.

Where is he?

How did he get me on the Prometheus?

Stop lying. Who is he really?

He's...

He's my husband.

And the boy we found on the Prometheus, he's my son.

What?

But I don't remember any of it.

I know that this sounds insane, but my father,

he's the owner of the ship company,

and I think he made us forget why we're here.

What did she say?

Our world has rules, and they can't be bent.

But nothing in this world follows any rules of logic.

This here,

it isn't real.

It's an illusion, a magic trick.

A simulation.

That's ridiculous.

Do you remember how you boarded this ship?

Of course I do.

That's impossible.

What?

What did she say?

She wants to know if we remember boarding the ship.

What?

Can someone explain what everyone is talking about, please?

I thought this was just about me, but it's not.

It's about all of us.

I don't know why,

but we're all here for a reason.

Your...

Your husband.

Is he the reason why we're here?

Is he working for your father?

I think he's trying to help.

I think he's trying to get us all out of here.

Fuck.

Come on.

Oh, come on, please.

Please work!

Our brain is a very complicated construct.

As much as we can try to forget the things we don't want to remember,

we will never be able to delete them entirely.

They're part of who we are.

Woven into our very fabric.

It's time for you to remember.

Your truth lies behind these walls.

There's no reason to be afraid.

This isn't real.

Remember?

It's spreading.

I'm not taking another step until you tell us

exactly what is happening.

Why should we still trust you?

Your father owns this ship.

You must know something.

Why are you even here?

I don't know.

The last thing I remember before waking up on board the Kerberos

was finding the envelope in front of my door.

I think my brother sent it.

And this was in it.

I don't know how my father did it, but he somehow made me forget.

He made me forget what happened and who I am.

But I think whatever this opens,

it will make me remember,

and it will get us all out of here.

Mother was right.

We should never have gotten onto this ship.

Now everyone is dead.

Olek is dead.

My mother is dead.

I'm not staying here one minute longer.

I'm going to get off this ship.

She's right.

We should let one of the lifeboats down. Get off this bloody ship.

But don't you understand?

There is nowhere to go.

This ship isn't real. The ocean out there, it isn't real.

It's only happening inside of your brain.

I'm sure you're a very bright woman.

I admire that you studied medicine

and that you stand against the conventions and limitations that women face.

But you can't really believe what you're saying.

It doesn't make any sense.

Let's get off this ship.

Wait, where are you going?

We're getting off the ship. Feel free to join us.

They want to get off the ship.

Let's go.

You've seen it.

The shafts.

Your memory. Mine.

You believe me?

Where did it go?

You think he's in there? Your father, in your memory?

His office, it wasn't where it used to be. But he said I'd know where to find him.

No!

How do we get to the mental hospital?

Follow me.

This is his memory.

I'm in all these pictures, but I don't remember any of it.

I look at these, and I don't feel anything.

You don't remember being married?

If all this is an illusion, could his memory be one as well?

How do you know he's telling the truth?

The boy, he said that there was a Creator, somebody who's created all of this.

Your father.

You think he created this?

Whoever created it, there must be some kind of a logic to it.

A design.

You mean there's a pattern to it? A blueprint?

Inside the brain, memories are stored in different areas.

But they're connected to each other through neural pathways.

When you smell a certain smell,

you might remember a lot of memories that are tied to that smell.

So maybe that's what this is, it's...

some kind of imitation of the brain,

and different areas are connected to each other.

What's happening?

Let's keep moving.

Shit.

It's moving.

Fuck.

What is this?

Quick! This way!

Let's go. Let's go, quick!

Where did they go?

Hey!

The doctor, maybe she was right?

Whatever's going on, I'm getting off this ship now.

There must be a way out of here.

Wait. Where are you going? We already lost the others!

We should go back. Find the doctor and the captain.

Even if we delete memories in this simulation,

our senses are still reacting to the same triggers.

Your mind might not remember what happened in that room.

But your body does.

I'll show you the truth.

Trust me.

Have a seat.

I know you think it's your mother who is trapped in here.

This is not her prison.

It's yours.

This may hurt.

You can't stop him from dying, Maura.

Maura?

Mum?

Dad?

You know this isn't right, Maura.

Why can't you hear me?

Mum, what's going on here?

- Mum! - Please.

- Please! - You have to let him go.

Mum! Mum!

- I can't. - Mum, Mum, please!

Mum, please! Mum, no!

- Don't worry, my love. - No! No, Mum, please!

- Don't be afraid. - No! No! No!

- You'll forget. I promise. - No! Please, no!

You'll forget this ever happened.

It's the only way. It's the only way for us to be together.

No! No! No!

Please! No!

You saw the truth, didn't you?

You're trapped in this simulation so your mother can keep you alive.

You're lying. That's not my memories.

You planted that in my brain.

When your mother was your age...

she found a paper on Plato's cave allegory in my study.

She was clearly too young to understand the abstract concept Plato was suggesting.

Nevertheless, she read it over and over.

It was this one thought

that turned her world upside down.

The idea that our knowledge has limits

and that we can never know if things truly are how they appear.

We're in a slumber, unaware of the true nature of things.

One evening she came to me and said,

"If it's true what Plato argues,

then how do we know if anything is real?"

"How do we know that the actual reality

isn't outside the life we're living?"

It was a mighty big thought for a girl her age.

I looked at her and asked her,

"Isn't that what God is?"

"The creator of our reality?"

She thought about it for a moment.

And then she answered,

"But then it's the world God is living in that's real

and we are just his doll's house."

"And then again, who created God?"

"Doesn't it go on endlessly?"

In a way, this here is a doll's house.

And it was built for you.

You're lying.

That's what your father wants you to believe.

But he has been lying to you.

They both have.

But there is a way out of here.

And your mother has the key.

The doors, where are the doors?

There are no doors. Where did they go?

There's a door.

Hurry, this way.

No!

Hey. Hey you!

Please wait for me!

Come on!

Wait for me.

Where are we?

I don't understand.

I don't understand what's happening.

No. No.

No!

Where are we?

It can't be true.

Sir.

He hacked into the mainframe.

I think he's trying to change the architecture of the simulation.

He's changing the shape of things to cover his tracks.

He's trying to wake her up without delivering us the key.

We'll be trapped in here forever.

Find her.

Get the key.

Yes, sir.

Is there someone in there?

Where are we?

How did we get here?

Help me!

Clémence!

It's over there.

I don't wanna die.

I don't wanna die.

I don't wanna die. I don't wanna die.

- Ling Yi! - Mei Mei!

Help me out of here!

No!

Don't go!

Don't go. Help me!

Why are you manipulating the code?

You're spreading the virus across the whole program.

What are you trying to hide?

Ramiro!

- Ángel! - Ramiro, please, help me!

I don't understand. Why are you alive?

And why am I here?

- Clémence! - Lucien?

We're getting you out of there!

Olek.

It will be all right.

Olek!

Dear God.

Come.

We need to get out of here!

Your father is a fool.

His attempt to hack the code will destroy the entire simulation.

You think your father cares about you.

He's not doing this for you, he's doing it for her.

If he had to choose between you and your mother,

he'd always choose her.

Our memories, they are all connected.

How is your father doing this?

How did he get into our minds?

I don't know.

But I do know that my father did something to my memory.

In that building.

Olek!

Olek!

How did you get here?

Ángel. Have you seen him? He was down in the well and now...

Olek? Have you seen Olek?

What's the matter?

Has anyone seen Olek?

He didn't die!

What?

He was here just now!

What do you mean?

Ángel?

- Ángel? - Hey, where are you going?

Where's he going?

I don't know. But the engine room should be this way.

Let's go!

I don't understand.

My father's office must be somewhere.

This is insane. Nothing but a bad dream.

This is not a dream.

Daniel, he used the word simulation, as if this was some kind of a fake reality

and we're all stuck in it.

This is crazy.

What is crazy is that you still haven't figured out what this is all about.

I wouldn't do that if I were you.

You knew.

You knew what was going on the whole time.

The key.

We don't have time for this.

The simulation has been corrupted.

It's all falling apart.

Give me what I want.

The key.

I'm sorry, Captain.

No!

No, no, no, no! Come back.

Bring him back. Please!

That's impossible.

Please!

Come back.

Come back.

Eyk.

Get up.

Your father's already waiting for you.

You all right?

He knows what you did to him.

What did I do to you?

Elliot, please.

Why can't I remember?

You're still not asking the right questions.

Stop! Just stop it!

I am your daughter. What kind of a father would ever do this?

The key.

Do you have it?

You've been watching me.

The whole time.

That's why Ciaran sent the letter. He found out what you did.

Where is my brother?

What have you done to Ciaran?

Believe me, he's the last one you should be concerned about.

Stop your fucking games and tell me what the hell is going on here!

What's happening?

How did you do this?

We're born into this world either a seeker or an avoider.

To be an avoider is pure bliss.

To be a seeker, on the other hand,

brings nothing but pain.

You will open every door, step into the darkest voids,

driven by the urge to gain more knowledge.

Contrary to your brother, you were born a seeker,

and I wish now that you weren't.

You tried to get rid of your pain, but all you did was create more pain.

Stop!

This is just one of your sick mind games.

You give me more credit than I deserve.

This is not my sick mind game.

It's yours.

You are the Creator.

You're lying. That's not true.

You created this. You and your husband. This is your design.

You forced this path onto everyone.

They're all trapped in this loop because of you.

I will leave this godforsaken place now.

And for you, it's time to forget again.

Whatever he has told you, it's not true. I didn't create this.

I didn't create this!

I didn't create this!

Don't be afraid.

You'll forget this ever happened.

Just like all the times before.

I'll make sure you'll stay in here forever.

Ángel?

This can't be real.

Time to wake up.

Why is it not working?

He changed the code.

Simulation has been corrupted.

What's happening?

Deleting simulation

in ten, nine, eight,

seven, six,

five, four,

three, two,

one, zero.

It worked.

It didn't start all over again.

Where am I?

Is this real?

No.

This is the first simulation we ever created.

It's our home away from home.

We created this?

Why don't I remember?

That doesn't matter now.

Why am I here?

The objects in a simulation are just manifestations of codes.

They're just facades, like everything else.

I exchanged their values.

I reprogrammed them.

This time, the syringe didn't bring you back and make you forget.

It brought you here.

I switched objects.

The pyramid your father has, it's useless.

As is the key.

Your wedding ring holds the exit code now.

This time,

you will get out of here.

Your brother,

he took over the whole program whilst you were in here.

- My brother did what? - He's been controlling everything.

And I've tried so hard to get you out of here, multiple times.

I thought my father was controlling...

He's just as stuck here as everyone else.

I don't know how fast your brother is gonna figure out what I've done.

But you have to leave now.

This is so much bigger than you think.

You have to wake up.

You have to stop him,

or everything will be lost.

Will you be there when I wake up?

Always.

I'll always be there.
