All language subtitles for The Outer Limits (1995) - S06E09 - Stasis - [DVD][480p][x265 10-bit][AAC 2.0]

THERE'S SOMETHING

I'VE BEEN MEANING TO ASK
YOU, LARISSA,

CAN YOU REMEMBER A TIME

WHEN YOU CAN HONESTLY SAY

THAT YOU WERE HAPPY,

I MEAN, TRULY HAPPY?

I MUST HAVE BEEN,
I DON'T KNOW, FIVE,

AND I REMEMBER
RUNNING ON A GREENWAY,

I DIDN'T KNOW IT,

BUT MY FATHER HAD
SAVED UP HIS V-CREDITS

FOR A WHOLE YEAR,

JUST SO I COULD HAVE
THAT EXPERIENCE,

THE SMELL OF THE LAWN,

AND THE FEEL OF THE
GRASS BETWEEN MY TOES,,,

YOU KNOW, I STILL HOLD OUT HOPE

THAT ORDINARY WORKERS
WILL BE ABLE TO ENJOY

THINGS LIKE THAT AGAIN SOMEDAY...

PARKS AND GARDENS AND
BEAUTIFUL THINGS...

IF NOT FOR ME,
THEN FOR MY CHILDREN,

JUST A MINUTE,

HI, YOU'RE UP EARLY,

WELL, I WANTED TO GIVE YOU
THIS BEFORE THE TRANSFER,

A PEACH,

DOMINIC, IT'S BEAUTIFUL,

HYDROPONICS ARE HARD TO COME BY,

WELL, SOME PEOPLE
DESERVE THE EXTRA EFFORT,

TRANSFER BEGINS IN 15 MINUTES,

ALL ALPHAS ARE
REQUIRED TO PROCEED

TO THEIR DESIGNATED
STASIS CENTER,

THANK YOU FOR THE GIFT,

I'LL SAVE IT FOR
MY NEXT TRANSFER,

BEFORE YOU GO,

UM, ARE YOU DOING
ANYTHING ON THE 20th?

THAT'S WHAT, A SATURDAY?

YEAH,

WELL,
I LIKE TO BE HOME ON SATURDAYS,

MAKE AN EXCEPTION,

BECAUSE I HAVE SOMETHING PLANNED
I THINK YOU'LL REALLY ENJOY,

ALL RIGHT, SURE,

THE 20th,

DON'T FORGET, OKAY, BYE,

BYE,

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG
WITH YOUR TELEVISION,

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO
ADJUST THE PICTURE,

WE ARE NOW CONTROLLING
THE TRANSMISSION,

WE CONTROL THE HORIZONTAL,,,

AND THE VERTICAL,

WE CAN DELUDE YOU WITH
A THOUSAND CHANNELS

OR EXPAND ONE SINGLE IMAGE
TO CRYSTAL CLARITY,,,

AND BEYOND,

WE CAN SHAPE YOUR VISION

TO ANYTHING OUR
IMAGINATION CAN CONCEIVE,

FOR THE NEXT HOUR,

WE WILL CONTROL ALL
THAT YOU SEE AND HEAR,

YOU ARE ABOUT TO EXPERIENCE
THE AWE AND MYSTERY

WHICH REACHES FROM
THE DEEPEST INNER MIND

TO THE OUTER LIMITS,

TO SLEEP, PERCHANCE TO DREAM,

BUT WHAT HAPPENS

WHEN THE DREAM IS TO
NEVER SLEEP AGAIN?

GOOD MORNING, ERIC,

FIRST THINGS FIRST...

WHITE STONE TO B-2,

AND WHILE YOU MULL THAT,

I'LL TELL YOU MY PROGRESS

FROM THE LAST THREE DAYS,

I'VE DONE A COMPUTER ANALYSIS
OF THE CONTROL-VALVE REDESIGNS,

BUT WE CAN'T SPECIFY
THE ALLOY NEEDED

FOR THE VALVE

WITHOUT HARD DATA
ON HEAT COEFFICIENCY

AND VISCOSITY,

UM,,,

I'M SORRY,
I SHOULD BE MORE FOCUSED,

BUT I CAN'T STOP THINKING
ABOUT HOW SAD YOU LOOKED

AT THE LAST TRANSFER,

AND HOW MUCH I
WANTED TO REACH OUT

TO TOUCH YOU,

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ERASE THIS,

HEY, GOT YOUR MESSAGE,

A LITTLE STASIS FATIGUE, HUH?

THEY CAN FIGURE OUT

HOW TO PUT YOU OUT FOR 72
HOURS, BUT,,,

RIGHT,
NO WAY TO MAKE IT RESTFUL,

WELL, THAT'S AMAZING,

YOU STILL REMEMBER
WHAT IT'S LIKE

TO BE ONE OF THE GREAT UNWASHED?

SO WHOSE PALM DID YOU
GREASE TO BECOME AN ELITE?

YOU'VE GOT TO CHALK
THAT UP TO MY SMARTS

AND MY KILLER GOOD LOOKS,

RIGHT,

HUMILITY NEVER WAS
YOUR STRONG SUIT,

YEAH, AND FORGIVENESS
WAS NEVER YOURS,

SO, ANYWAY,
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?

I NEED TO GET

THE VISCOSITY AND
HEAT COEFFICIENT

OF THE FLUID FOR THIS VALVE,

ISN'T THAT IN YOUR
STASIS PARTNER'S REPORT?

I'VE LISTENED TO
THAT TWICE ALREADY,

IF YOU LOOK RIGHT HERE,

IDEALLY,
WE'D WANT TO GO WITH COPPER,

YEAH, SURE, IF THERE WERE ANY,

THE ELITE DOESN'T HAVE
A STOCKPILE SOMEWHERE?

DESPITE RUMORS TO THE CONTRARY,
WE HAVE NO MAGIC WANDS,

WELL, THEN,

I'LL HAVE TO FORMULATE AN ALLOY,

WITHOUT THE FLUID DATA,
I'M SHOOTING IN THE DARK,

GETTING NUMBERS ON THIS PROJECT

IS LIKE PULLING TEETH,

OKAY, I'LL LOOK INTO IT,

HEY, I'LL SEE IF I CAN
GET YOU A DECENT SHAVER,

THANK YOU, DOM,

YOU'RE WELCOME, BYE,

GOOD MORNING, ERIC,,,

THERE'S ROOM FOR
MAYBE 24 TURBINES,

AND THE FUEL CELLS

HAVE TO BE PRETTY
CLOSE TOGETHER,

SO THE ENERGY WON'T DISSIPATE,

SOMETHING I CAN HELP YOU WITH?

NO, SIR,

LET MANKIND CHOOSE,

THE RESISTANCE NEEDS YOU,

DAMNED STASIS JUMPER,

HALF A LIFE IS NO LIFE,

STASIS IS MURDER,

HIT HIM AGAIN,

HELLO, WINSTON,

A COUPLE OF RETURNS,

OH, GOOD EVENING, ERIC,

HOW DID MY RECOMMENDATION FARE?

A MAGICAL KINGDOM
INSIDE OF A WARDROBE,

I WAS SKEPTICAL AT
FIRST, BUT IT WAS NICE,

VERY, VERY IMAGINATIVE,

SO, WHAT'LL IT BE TONIGHT?

SOMETHING ROMANTIC, I THINK,

SHAKESPEARE?

CONTEMPORARY?

OR ONE THOSE DELIGHTFULLY
TRASHY NOVELS

OF THE LATE 20th CENTURY?

NO, SOME POETRY, MAYBE?

YES, YOU ARE ON A
ROMANTIC KICK LATELY,

LET'S SEE HERE,,,

THE COLLECTED WORKS OF
R, KOSLOV?

I READ THEM,

THE MOBARAK COMPILATIONS?

READ THOSE, TOO,

OH, YEAH,

I READ THOSE,

TWICE, ACTUALLY,

SO YOU HAVE,

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT,

CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET?

SURE,

I'M EXPECTING DELIVERY OF
SOMETHING RATHER SPECIAL,

I SHOULD HAVE IT HERE

BY YOUR NEXT TRANSFER,

HALF A CENTURY AGO,

OUR FOREFATHERS DESIGNED
THE STASIS INITIATIVE

AS A TEMPORARY MEASURE

TO SAVE MANKIND FROM ITSELF,

THE IDEA WAS SIMPLE...

CUT THE CONSUMPTION
OF RESOURCES IN HALF

BY DIVIDING THE
POPULATION OF WORKERS

INTO TWO GROUPS,

AND ROTATE THEM IN AND
OUT OF SUSPENDED ANIMATION

EVERY 72 HOURS,

A GROUP OF MANAGERS WOULD
OVERSEE THE PROCESS,

WHO COULD'VE ANTICIPATED

WE'D WIND UP A
SELF-PROCLAIMED ARISTOCRACY?

FELLOW MEMBERS OF THE ELITE,

I THINK THE TIME HAS COME

FOR US ALL TO RENOUNCE
OUR LEVEL-ONE PRIVILEGES,

INCLUDING,,,

STASIS EXEMPTION,

ARISTOCRACY?

IN FAIRNESS, KAYLA,

THERE ARE PLENTY
OF FORMER WORKERS

WHO EARNED THEIR
WAY INTO THE ELITE

BY EXCELLING IN THEIR FIELDS,

SPARE ME THE
EGALITARIAN PLATITUDES,

YOU KNOW, AS WELL AS I DO,

THAT LESS THAN 2% OF THE
ELITE ARE FORMER WORKERS,

ONCE THE ALPHAS' RELOCATION
TO THE COUNTRYSIDE

TAKES EFFECT NEXT MONTH,

THE LIVES OF ALL CITIZENS
WILL IMPROVE DRAMATICALLY,

I IMPLORE YOU

TO PUT A HOLD ON THOSE PLANS,

THE REALITY IS

IF WE DO NOT RENOUNCE
OUR PRIVILEGES,

THEY WILL BE FORCIBLY
TAKEN FROM US,

LOOK AROUND YOU,

STASIS JUMPING IS ON THE RISE,

THE RESISTANCE IS
GROWING EVERY DAY,

MOST WORKERS UNDERSTAND
THAT THE STASIS INITIATIVE,

AND THE CONSERVATION
THAT IT'S BROUGHT,

IS THE ONLY THING

THAT'S STAVED OFF
COMPLETE ANNIHILATION,

THIS IS NOT ABOUT
CONSERVATION ANYMORE,

WHY GO FORWARD WITH SOMETHING

AS DRASTIC AND
MORALLY REPREHENSIBLE

AS THE RELOCATION?

WE SHOULD BE MOVING TOWARDS
ABOLISHING STASIS ALTOGETHER,

THAT'S TREASONOUS!

HOW MUCH MORE STASIS JUMPING

ARE WE GOING TO TOLERATE?

I THINK WE'VE HEARD ENOUGH,

CANCEL THE RELOCATION?

ABOLISH STASIS?

LET THE WORKERS RUN AMOK OVER
WHAT LITTLE WE HAVE LEFT?

THAT'S A RECIPE FOR DISASTER,

I MOVE

FOR THE CENSURE AND
ARREST OF KAYLA POWERS,

AND ALL THOSE WHO SUPPORT HER,

WHAT?

HEAR, HEAR!

THIS COUNCIL

FORMALLY SECONDS THE
CHARGE OF TREASON,

WHAT SAY YOU?

AYE!

YOU HAVE NO RIGHT!

IT'S ALL RIGHT, I'LL TAKE HER,

INCARCERATE HER,

PENDING A FORMAL HEARING,

WHERE WERE WE?

THAT'S RIGHT,

YOU ASKED ME IF
I REMEMBER A TIME

WHEN I WAS TRULY AND
HONESTLY HAPPY,,,

AND I CAN REMEMBER TWO TIMES,

BOTH OF THEM
HAPPENED SO LONG AGO,

I DON'T KNOW IF THEY'RE DREAMS,
OR IF THEY ACTUALLY HAPPENED,

ONE OF THEM IS WHEN
I'M WITH MY FATHER,

AND WE WERE AT THE CITY CENTER,

AND I REMEMBER HIM LAUGHING,

I LOVED HIS LAUGH,

HE WAS LAUGHING AT ME

WHEN I BURIED MY FACE

IN THE PERFUMED PETALS

OF THE SINGLE ROSE
BUSH THAT WAS THERE,

THAT IMAGE SOMETIMES COMES TO ME

IN STASIS,

YOU KNOW,
THEY SAY YOU DON'T DREAM IN STASIS,

BUT I DO,

I DREAM OF ROSES, PINK ROSES,

WHO ARE WE KIDDING?

IT'S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN,

THE STASIS TRANSFERS
WILL NEVER END,

AND EVEN IF THEY DO,

THE RELOCATION
WILL KEEP US APART,

IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?

TO FEEL YOU BESIDE ME,,,

TALK TO
YOU IN THE FLESH,,,

PRESS MY LIPS AGAINST YOURS?

WE OCCUPY THE SAME ROOMS,

WE SHARE THE SAME JOB,

BUT WE MIGHT AS WELL

BE HALFWAY AROUND THE WORLD

FROM EACH OTHER,

IT ISN'T FAIR,

IT'S JUST NOT FAIR,

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

GET BACK IN YOUR CHAMBER,

HALF A LIFE,,,

NO LIFE,

STAND BY FOR AN ANNOUNCEMENT

BY THE URBAN
CONSERVATION AUTHORITY,

THE U, C, A,
IS PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE

THAT THE STASIS INITIATIVE

HAS NEARLY COMPLETED
ITS THIRD PHASE,

THE RELOCATION OF
THE ALPHA POPULATION

TO THE PERIMETER LANDS

WILL TAKE EFFECT IN 28 DAYS,

AS A RESULT,

ALL CITIZENS ENJOY
INCREASED RATIONS

AND SUBSTANTIAL REDUCTION
IN STASIS COMMITMENTS,

UNTIL THEN,

THE U, C, A, REMINDS YOU

THAT TO CONSERVE IS TO SURVIVE,

COME IN,

HI THERE,

HI,

I WAS TOLD YOU HAVE
THE VALVE DATA,

YES, RIGHT HERE,

SOMETHING ELSE?

I HAVE A FRIEND WHO
WOULD APPRECIATE A GIFT

WHICH IS IN FAIRLY SHORT SUPPLY,

AH,

SO, WHAT IS IT YOU
WANT, HYPOTHETICALLY?

A ROSE, ACTUALLY...

JUST A SINGLE PINK ROSE,

ERIC, YOU KNOW I WOULD DO
WHATEVER I COULD TO HELP YOU,

BUT THINGS LIKE THAT

ARE ONLY AVAILABLE
ON THE BLACK MARKET,

WHICH IS, OF COURSE...

ILLEGAL, I KNOW,

BUT WE BOTH KNOW THE
ELITE HAVE ACCESS

TO CERTAIN THINGS,

THAT DOESN'T MEAN I CAN
JUST SNAP MY FINGERS

AND GET YOU ANYTHING YOU WANT,

RIGHT,

RIGHT,

YOU KNOW, IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE
YOU'RE THE SAME SCRAWNY KID

I USED TO PLAY HOOKY
WITH, ISN'T IT?

FORGET I SAID ANYTHING,

A ROSE,

OKAY,

A PINK ROSE COSTS A LOT,

I'M WILLING TO MAKE THE
NECESSARY SACRIFICES FOR IT,

ALL RIGHT,

I'LL SEE WHAT I CAN DO,

THANKS,

YOU MUSTN'T TELL
ANYONE ABOUT THIS,

I THOUGHT THEY GOT RID OF THESE
WHEN THEY TRANSFERRED TO DISC,

JUST KEEP IT TO YOURSELF,

I COULD LOSE MY LICENSE,

SO, WHO'S THE SPECIAL LADY?

MY STASIS PARTNER,

CAREFUL,

ONE THING I'VE LEARNED,

ALPHAS AND BETAS DON'T
MAKE GOOD MATCHES,

PAGE 112 IS MY FAVORITE...
VERY INSPIRATIONAL,

THANKS, WINSTON,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LARISSA,

I KNOW THIS IS YOUR
FAVORITE PIECE OF MUSIC,

AND IT'S ACTUALLY GROWN ON
ME, AS WELL,

WE DON'T HAVE ANY
BUSHES OR BALCONIES,

SO I'M AFRAID THIS
IS THE BEST I CAN DO

IN THE SERENADE DEPARTMENT,

BESIDES,

I THINK YOU ALREADY KNOW

THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION
"WHEREFORE ART THOU?"

IT'S, UM,,,

IT'S E, E, CUMMINGS,
IN CASE YOU'RE WONDERING,

"YOUR SLIGHTEST LOOK
EASILY UNCLOSES ME,

"THOUGH I HAVE CLOSED
MYSELF AS FINGERS,

"YOU OPEN, ALWAYS,
PETAL BY PETAL, MYSELF,

"AS SPRING OPENS

"TOUCHING SKILLFULLY,
MYSTERIOUSLY,

HER FIRST ROSE,"

"I DO NOT KNOW WHAT
IT IS ABOUT YOU

"THAT CLOSES AND OPENS,,,

"ONLY SOMETHING
IN ME UNDERSTANDS

"THE VOICE OF YOUR EYES
IS DEEPER THAN ALL ROSES,

NOTHING, NOT EVEN THE RAIN,
HAS SUCH SMALL HANDS,"

YOU DIDN'T FORGET, DID YOU?

OH, DOMINIC,

I JUST,,,
I DON'T FEEL UP TO IT, TODAY

THIS ISN'T SOMETHING
YOU WANT TO MISS,

WELL,
I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO WEAR,

I TOOK CARE OF THAT,

IT'S WONDERFUL, HUH?

IT'S BEAUTIFUL,

I'D HEARD THAT PLACES
LIKE THIS STILL EXISTED,

I JUST NEVER THOUGHT
I WOULD SEE IT,

I DON'T WANT TO GIVE YOU
THE WRONG IMPRESSION,

EVEN THE ELITE
ONLY TREATS ITSELF

ONCE IN A BLUE MOON,

ANYWAY, GO AHEAD, HELP YOU

IT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT,

HEY,
YOU ONLY LIVE HALF YOUR LIFE,

ENJOY THE OCCASIONAL BLESSING,

THANK YOU,

IT'S LIKE A DREAM,

A BOTANIST'S DREAM,
THAT'S FOR SURE,

OVER 240 RARE PLANT SPECIES,

MANY OF THEM THOUGHT
TO BE EXTINCT,

I WISH MY FATHER
COULD HAVE SEEN THIS,

UH, JUST GIVE ME
A COUPLE MINUTES,

MM-HMM,

SO, DOMINIC, SLUMMING AGAIN?

WELL, WE DON'T ALL WEAR
OUR SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT

AS WELL AS YOU,

PLANNING ON AWAKENING
SLEEPING BEAUTY

FROM STASIS?

THE U, C, A, CHARTER

PERMITS GUESTS TO
AN ELITE EVENT,

PROVIDED A CONJUGAL
POTENTIAL EXISTS,

I'M IN COMPLIANCE
WITH THE CHARTER,

THANK YOU VERY MUCH,

YOU HAVE A PROBLEM?

WELL, I'M NOT THE ONE
DATING THE WORKER,

SECOND-GENERATION ELITE...

THEY'VE NEVER SUPPORTED
INTERMARRIAGE,

AND YOU?

IT'S NOT THE MOST
CARDINAL OF SINS,

BUT IT'S ALSO NOT THE
WISEST MOVE RIGHT NOW,

IT'S A MOOT POINT,

SHE'S SLATED FOR RELOCATION
WITH ALL THE OTHER ALPHAS,

SUCH A DAMN WASTE,

I DON'T SUPPOSE THERE'S ANY WAY

TO MAKE AN EXCEPTION?

SHE KNOWS THE MAINFRAMES
BETTER THAN ANY EXPERT WE HAVE,

WHAT ABOUT PROMOTING
HER TO AN ELITE?

CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG,

BUT WASN'T KAYLA POWERS ARRESTED

FOR QUESTIONING THE STATUS QUO?

WELL, THE DIFFERENCE IS I
KNOW WHERE MY LOYALTIES LIE,

I HOPE SO,

THE COUNCIL WOULD HATE TO SEE

AN AMBITIOUS,

FORWARD-THINKER LIKE YOURSELF

MISS OUT ON A CHANCE
AT ADVANCEMENT,

YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE

THAT I'M BEING CONSIDERED
FOR THE COUNCIL?

WELL, LET'S JUST SAY THAT
YOUR DENUNCIATION OF KAYLA

WAS SHREWDLY TIMED

AND DIDN'T GO UNNOTICED,

SO, LIKE I SAID,

NOT THE WISEST OF
MOVES RIGHT NOW,

WHAT'S WRONG?

I'M SORRY,

CAN YOU TAKE ME HOME?

BUT THE PARTY'S JUST BEGUN,

I DON'T BELONG HERE,

OH, NONSENSE,

YOU CAN TELL ME,

IT'S ALL RIGHT,

I KNOW THERE'S NOT MUCH TIME

BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE CITY,

BUT THAT DOESN'T,,,

I'M IN LOVE,

IS THAT SO TERRIBLE?

IT IS WHEN YOU CAN'T BE
WITH THE ONE YOU LOVE,

SO YOU THINK THERE'S TOO
MUCH STANDING BETWEEN US?

OH, I'M SORRY, DO YOU THINK,,,

OH, I'M SORRY,

UH,,,

SO, UH,,,

WHO IS IT YOU CAN'T BE WITH?

IS IT BECAUSE WHEN HE'S
AWAKE, YOU'RE NOT?

IT'S ERIC, ISN'T IT?

PLEASE DON'T TELL ANYONE,

LISTEN TO ME,

YOU CAN'T BE WITH HIM,

YOU HAVE TO TELL HIM NEVER
TO CONTACT YOU AGAIN,

I CAN'T DO THAT,

LOOK, DON'T BE NAIVE,

YOU KNOW THE WAY
THE WORLD WORKS,

IT CAN'T COME TO ANY GOOD,

THEY KEEP SAYING THAT
MAYBE AFTER RELOCATION,

THINGS WILL BE DIFFERENT,

IT'S NOT GOING TO CHANGE,

MAYBE AFTER THE
STRAIN ON RESOURCES,,,

WE'VE BEEN DOING
THIS FOR TOO LONG,

IT WON'T CHANGE,

THINGS ARE WHAT THEY ARE,

I JUST THINK THERE HAS
TO BE A BETTER WAY,

WE'VE TRIED EVERYTHING ELSE...

CONSERVATION, BIRTH CONTROL,,,

STASIS IS THE ONLY
REASON WE ARE ALIVE,

ANYTHING THAT THREATENS
THAT SYSTEM...

ANYTHING...

IS A THREAT TO THE HUMAN RACE,

AND THAT IS NOT GOING TO
CHANGE, LARISSA,

NOT TODAY, NOT TOMORROW,

NOT EVER,

COME ON,

I'M GOING TO TAKE YOU HOME,

I KNOW THIS WON'T BE
EASY FOR YOU TO HEAR,

AND IT'S VERY HARD TO SAY,,,

BUT THE TRUTH IS, ERIC,
THERE IS NO FUTURE FOR US,

I CAN'T POUR MY HEART OUT TO YOU

NIGHT AFTER NIGHT,

IN THE FACE OF THAT REALITY,

SO BEFORE WE GET ANY
DEEPER, WE SHOULD JUST,,,

PLEASE DON'T CONTACT
ME ANYMORE,,,

AND PLEASE TRY TO UNDERSTAND

THAT IT'S NOT BECAUSE
I DON'T LOVE YOU,

IT'S BECAUSE I DO,

I'M SORRY,

WHAT IS THIS?

TO LARISSA WHITESTONE
FROM ERIC WATERS...

I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS REQUEST,

FIRST, WHEN DID WE START
ENCODING OUR ASSIGNMENTS?

SECOND, WHY WOULD WE NEED TO
IMPROVE THE THERMAL SHIELDING

ON THIS SAMPLE,,,

AND WILL YOU EVEN
LISTEN TO THIS?

WILL YOU EVEN HEAR MY VOICE?

BECAUSE IF YOU DO,,,

JUST KNOW THAT I MISS YOU,

THE U, C, A,
PUT A RUSH ON THIS PROGRAM

FOR OBVIOUS REASONS,

THEY'RE NOT GIVING US MUCH TIME,

WE'LL BE ALL RIGHT,

FUEL-CELL INSTALLATION
IS NEARING COMPLETION,

ALL SYSTEMS SHOULD
BE OPERATIONAL

ON THE EVE OF THE RELOCATION,

GOOD,

EXCUSE ME,

I APOLOGIZE, BUT IT'S URGENT,

WOULD YOU EXCUSE US?

I'M SORRY,

I JUST NEED TO SPEAK
TO SOMEONE I CAN TRUST,

YEAH,

SO, WHAT IS IT?

I HAVE TO KNOW IF
THERE'S ANY WAY

OF RELEASING
SOMEONE FROM STASIS?

I DIDN'T HEAR THAT,

NO, THE TRUTH, DOM, PLEASE?

WHAT YOU WANT IS
NOT ONLY IMPOSSIBLE,

BUT IF ANYONE EVEN HEARD
US TALKING ABOUT THIS,,,

WHAT ABOUT THE RESISTANCE?

PLEASE, ERIC,

LOOK, THIS CONVERSATION IS OVER,

GO HOME AND WE'LL BOTH
FORGET THIS EVER HAPPENED,

FORGETTING SEEMS TO
BE YOUR SPECIALTY,

YOU KNOW, DOM,

IT WASN'T THAT LONG AGO
THE TABLES WERE TURNED

AND YOU CAME TO ME
FOR HELP EVERY DAY,

DID YOU FORGET
WHAT YOU SAID TO ME

WHEN YOU WERE PULLED FROM
STASIS TO JOIN THE ELITE?

I SAID WE WOULD
ALWAYS BE FRIENDS,

THAT'S RIGHT,

YOU SAID WE'D BEEN THROUGH
FAR TOO MUCH NOT TO BE,

YEAH, WELL,
KIDS SAY A LOT OF FOOLISH THINGS,

YOU SON OF A BITCH,

YOU'RE WRONG ABOUT ME, ERIC,

I REMEMBER EVERYTHING,

I REMEMBER MY FATHER
SCRAPING TOGETHER HIS CREDITS

SO HIS CHILDREN WOULDN'T
HAVE TO SHARE THEIR SHOES

OR FREEZE TO DEATH
IN THEIR BEDS,

I REMEMBER MY MOTHER
SKIPPING DINNER

NIGHT AFTER NIGHT,

CLAIMING SHE WASN'T HUNGRY,

AND I REMEMBER STANDING
OVER HER GRAVE,

VOWING THAT THAT WOULD
NEVER HAPPEN TO ME,

SO YOU CAN PUT AWAY THAT
MORAL SUPERIORITY, BUDDY,

'CAUSE IT DOESN'T CUT IT,

YOU UNDERSTAND?

YEAH, I UNDERSTAND,

I UNDERSTAND PERFECTLY,

DROP IT,

NOW,

ERIC WATERS,

YOU UNDERSTAND YOUR
CRIME CARRIES WITH IT

A MANDATORY 10-YEAR SENTENCE?

HOWEVER,
THAT SENTENCE WAS COMMUTED

DUE TO AN URGENT APPEAL
BY AN ELITE MEMBER,

WHO HAS VOUCHED

FOR YOUR SKILLS AS AN ENGINEER

AS BEING INDISPENSABLE,

DOMINIC LANGTON

HAS TAKEN FULL RESPONSIBILITY

FOR YOUR FUTURE ACTIONS,

I TRUST YOU WILL NOT
VIOLATE HIS COVENANT,

I'M SORRY,

YOU'RE DISMISSED,

DON'T WORRY, I'VE LET HER GO,

YOU'RE SURE HE'S THE KEY
TO FINDING OUR TRAITOR?

IF HE'S NOT WORKING
WITH THEM ALREADY,

THEY'LL CONTACT HIM SOON ENOUGH,

AND I'LL FIND OUT WHO IT IS,

ERIC WATERS TO
LARISSA WHITESTONE

REGARDING REDESIGN
OF VENTILATION SHAFT,

REQUIRE MORE INFORMATION,

WHY WOULD ANYONE
WANT AN AIR SHAFT

TO TRANSPORT WATER?

THE INDICATED SHAFTS ARE
OVER 1,200-FEET LONG,

THE ONLY BUILDINGS BIG
ENOUGH FOR THAT ARE,,,

TRANSFER HALLS,

YOUR MOVE,

WHAT THE,,,

73859,,,

THERE'S ROOM FOR
MAYBE 24 TURBINES,

AND THE FUEL CELLS HAVE TO
BE PRETTY CLOSE TOGETHER

SO THE ENERGY WON'T DISSIPATE,

FUEL-CELL INSTALLATION
IS NEARING COMPLETION,

ALL SYSTEMS SHOULD
BE OPERATIONAL

ON THE EVE OF THE RELOCATION,

THE TURBINE ENGINE

RUNS ON SUPERHEATED
WATER PUMPING THROUGH IT,

HOW DO THEY EXPECT TO HEAT
THAT QUANTITY OF WATER

WITHOUT,,,

WITHOUT FUEL?

AND WHY WOULD THEY
PUT A POWER PLANT

UNDER A TRANSFER HALL,

UNLESS,,,

OH, MY GOD,

73859,

ALL SYSTEMS ON-LINE,

WE'RE READY TO START
THE FINAL TESTS,

REPLACE THE STASIS FLUID
WITH THE NEW MIXTURE,

COMBUSTION MIXTURE FLOWING,

INITIATE POWER SURGE,

686 THERMS OF OUTPUT,

ENOUGH TO HEAT THE WATER AND
GET THOSE TURBINES RUNNING,

MULTIPLIED

BY THE MILLIONS OF
ALPHAS WHO WILL PERISH,

THE RELOCATION

WILL GIVE US ENOUGH ENERGY TO
RUN THE CITY FOR 3,4 YEARS,

INCREDIBLE,

I'M CLOSING UP, ERIC,

CAN'T IT WAIT?

WINSTON, I READ PAGE 112,

I MISINTERPRETED ITS
MEANING AT FIRST,

I,,,I HAVEN'T TOLD ANYONE,

TOLD ANYONE ABOUT WHAT?

I KNOW, WINSTON,

THAT YOU'RE A CONTACT
FOR THE RESISTANCE,

I THINK YOU'VE READ ONE
TOO MANY SPY NOVELS,

NO, I HAVE TO RELEASE
HER FROM STASIS,

I THINK YOU'D BETTER LEAVE,

THE ALPHAS WILL BE
MURDERED BY THE U, C, A,

THE TRANSFER HALLS

HAVE ALL BEEN CONVERTED
INTO DEATH CHAMBERS,

THERE IS NO RELOCATION,

IF YOU ARE PART
OF THE RESISTANCE,

NOW IS THE TIME TO SPEAK UP,

PLEASE, WINSTON?

LOCK THE DOORS,

SO, EIGHT YEARS WITH RESISTANCE?

YEAH, AND THREE AS
LEADER OF THE LOCAL CELL,

SO YOU BELIEVE ME?

YES,

I'VE GOT TO GET
WORD TO THE OTHERS,

I'VE GOT TO GET LARISSA OUT,

EVERYONE WILL BE INCINERATED
BY THE NEXT TRANSFER,

WE'VE GOT HALF THE
CITY TO WORRY ABOUT,

ONE PERSON IS HARDLY
A PRIORITY HERE,

NO, WINSTON,
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND,

WE WORKED TOGETHER
ON THE PROJECT,

SHE KNOWS BACK DOORS INTO
THEIR COMPUTER SYSTEMS,

WEAKNESSES THEY'RE
NOT EVEN AWARE OF,

TOGETHER,
WE COULD SHUT THE SYSTEM DOWN,

I'M TAKING A GREAT
RISK DOING THIS,

SHE'S THE FIRST STEP,

WITH HER, WE COULD RELEASE
EVERYONE FROM STASIS,

IT'S NOW OR NEVER,

I'LL ADVANCE HER STASIS CLOCK

TO 6:00 A, M, FRIDAY,

THE SYSTEM RUNS
A SELF-DIAGNOSTIC

AT RANDOM INTERVALS,

IT MAY NOTICE THE CLOCK'S
OUT OF SYNC WITH THE OTHERS,

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

ONCE WE INITIATE
THE WAKING MIXTURE,

THE SYSTEM COULD DETECT IT

AND SOUND THE ALARM,

OKAY, CLOCK RESET,

STASIS FLUID SHUT DOWN,
AWAKENING-MIXTURE FLOWING,

DAMN! THE ALARM,

LARISSA, WAKE UP,

LARISSA, PLEASE,
YOU'VE GOT TO WAKE UP,

ERIC?

YEAH, IT'S ME,

COME, LET'S GO,

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

WE'RE GETTING OUT OF HERE,

WE CAN'T GO BACK
TO OUR QUARTERS,

THEY'LL BE LOOKING FOR US,

I'M SORRY THAT I
PUSHED YOU AWAY,

YOU KNOW, EVERY DAY WITHOUT
YOU, A LITTLE PIECE OF ME DIED,

ME TOO,

I'M SORRY, BUT WE NEED LARISSA,

WE'VE ONLY GOT A FEW HOURS LEFT

TO HACK INTO THE
ELITE'S COMPUTER SYSTEM

AND EXPOSE THOSE FLAWS,

WE'VE GOT TO ACT QUICKLY,

NOBODY MOVE!

YOU'RE ALL UNDER ARREST,

WINSTON, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

THESE OLD BONES

HAVE BEEN THROUGH A LOT WORSE,

DO YOU KNOW

WHAT THEY'VE DONE WITH LARISSA?

NO, I'M SORRY,

LISTEN TO ME,

THEY HAVEN'T FIGURED
OUT WHO I AM YET,

BUT MAKE NO MISTAKE,

THEY WON'T HESITATE TO KILL US...
YOU, ME, LARISSA...

NOT TO MENTION YOUR INFORMANT,

MY INFORMANT?

THEY BELIEVE
SOMEONE IN THE ELITE

IS A TRAITOR...

SOMEONE YOU APPARENTLY KNOW...

SOMEONE WHO SENT ACCESS CODES

TO RESTRICTED AREAS,

WE'VE GOT TO FIND
A WAY TO WARN HIM,

HE MAY BE OUR ONLY HOPE THE
STRUGGLE DOESN'T END HERE,

NO, NO, WINSTON,
I HAVE NO IDEA,,,

WELL, YOU MUST HAVE SOME IDEA,

NO, WINSTON,

THE NUMBERS JUST
APPEARED ON MY COMPUTER,

I THOUGHT IT WAS YOU,

AND EVEN IF I HAD A NAME,

HOW WOULD WE CONTACT HIM?

I HAVE THE FEELING THEY'RE
GOING TO RELEASE ME,

HOPING I'LL LEAD THEM
TO THE REST OF OUR CELL,

ERIC, YOU'VE GOT TO FACE IT,

THEY COULD KILL LARISSA,

GOD KNOWS WHAT THEY'LL
DO TO HER FIRST,

THE SAFE HOUSE THAT
YOU BROUGHT US TO,,,

NO ONE FOLLOWED US THERE,

HOW DID THEY FIND US?

WHAT DOES THAT MATTER?

THE IMPORTANT THING IS THEY DID,

AND WHY WERE YOU SO ANXIOUS

TO DEBRIEF LARISSA

ABOUT THE WEAKNESSES
IN THE STASIS COMPUTER?

YOU SAID THE INFORMATION
WAS INVALUABLE,

YEAH, BUT FOR WHO...

THE RESISTANCE OR THE ELITE?

WHAT ARE YOU GETTING AT?

IT WAS YOU,

YOU SEE WHAT THEY'VE DONE?

THEY'VE SUCCEEDED

IN TURNING US
AGAINST EACH OTHER,

OR WE'VE BEEN AGAINST EACH
OTHER FROM THE BEGINNING,

IF YOU REALLY ARE ONE OF US,

THEN THEY WON'T
CARE IF I KILL YOU,

WILL THEY?

YOU STUPID BASTARD,

YOU HAVE NO IDEA

WHO YOU'RE SCREWING WITH,

I WANT TO KNOW THE
NAME OF THE PERSON

WHO GAVE YOU THE ACCESS CODES,

NOW!

RIGHT, THEN,

LET'S DO IT THE HARD WAY,

LARISSA!

I'M ALL RIGHT,

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

HE'S NOT A RESISTANCE OFFICER,

HE'S AN OPERATIVE FOR
STASIS ENFORCEMENT,

I TOLD YOU ALPHAS AND BETAS
DON'T MAKE GOOD MATCHES, ERIC,

BUT YOU DIDN'T LISTEN,

SO YOU'LL SIT BY AND WATCH
HALF THE CITY MURDERED?

ETHICS DON'T INTEREST ME...

MUCH TOO MURKY FOR MY TASTE,

RIGHT NOW, WHAT WE CARE ABOUT

IS THE NAME OF
THE ELITE TRAITOR,

LARISSA, YOU COULD END THIS,

AND THEN THE TWO OF
YOU CAN BE TOGETHER,

YOU SEE, MY JOB IS SIMPLE...

TO EXTRACT INFORMATION,

AND I'VE BEEN GIVEN
CONSIDERABLE LATITUDE

IN HOW I GET IT,

NO, ERIC, NO,

DON'T TELL HIM ANYTHING,

THEN YOU ADMIT YOU KNOW?

I WANT THE NAME
OF THE INFORMANT,

AND THEN WE SHALL
CONTINUE OUR CONVERSATION

ABOUT THE FLAWS IN
OUR COMPUTER SYSTEM,

ALL STATIONS ALERT,
SECURITY BREACH,

FINE, KILL HER,

NO!

DON'T TAKE HER FROM ME,

I WANT TO KNOW THE
NAME OF THE INFORMANT!

NO!

DROP THE GUN!

GET THEM OUT OF HERE!

DOMINIC,,,

THANK YOU,

COME ON, LET'S GO,

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

TWICE THE POPULATION
AFTER THE SAME RESOURCES,

THERE WILL HAVE
TO BE SACRIFICES,

BUT AT LEAST THEY'LL
BE VOLUNTARY,

IT'S WHAT WE'VE
BEEN FIGHTING FOR,

SO WHAT HAPPENS NOW?

IT'S A NEW ERA,

I DON'T THINK ANYONE'S
GOING TO BE TOO ANXIOUS

TO REPEAT THE SAME MISTAKES,

ALL THESE YEARS,

THEY'VE TAKEN HALF OUR LIVES,

WELL, MAYBE THAT'S THE
PRICE WE HAD TO PAY

SO THAT IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN,

THE PRICE OF FREEDOM,

UNLESS HUMANKIND AWAKENS

TO THE NEED TO
PRESERVE ITS FUTURE,

IT MAY ONE DAY FIND ITSELF
