My name is Zeta. I was

built as a weapon to destroy, but I will

not destroy anymore.

Come on, let's go!

It's better. Run! This way.

Quick deep change!

Roe, look out!

We'll get you your freedom, David. I know

it.

Previously on The Zeta Project... My

name is Zeta. I'm a U.S. government

infiltration unit designed to replace and

destroy targeted individuals. Destroy?

But I don't want to destroy anymore. Z.

Excuse me?That should be your name.

Z. Zeta's too weird.

Hello, my name is Z. Bennett doesn't

believe you could be peaceful, right?Right

Well, whoever programmed you is going to

know better. They made you what you are.

They can tell Bennett you're telling the

truth. The Infiltration Unit Program was

a classified team of scientists. Their

names are highly protected. Well, can't

you hack into some computer and get them?

I only have time to download a partial

file and this image. It'll take a while

to reconstruct the data. But look at that

picture, Z. One of those guys is going to

get you your freedom. I know it.

Hey. HmmIf I knew the conversation was

going to be so riveting, I'd have brought

a book. I'm sorry. I was studying the

data from the file I retrieved. It's all

right. Just remember you have a human

with you now. We kind of like to talk now

and then. I'll remember. Any luck?

I've identified the names of some of the

scientists who built me, but there's no

information about where to find them.

Maybe some of them are in less classified

work now. I could search for their names

on the net. Don't need a heavily guarded

government computer this time?No, this

data would be... Good. Switch off

autopilot and take the next exit.

Ground wire. One in every town.

All the computers are in use. Something

will open up. Why don't you go get us,

um, me, some refresh while I find us a

seat. What kind of refresh?I don't know.

Root beer, cherry, cola, whatever.

Whoa, check out the Tokyo traffic cam.

Magway looks like a parking lot. Ooh,

click London. My brother's got a car in

London. Huh

Thank you.

That was nice of them. Yeah, real sports.

What is this?what you asked for-- root

beer, cherry, and cola. I meant or cherry

or cola, not and. Yesterday you ordered

a bacon, lettuce, and tomato, and the

waitress brought you all three. I

thought-- Never mind. Another time.

Here. I found a match. Nelson Arroyo, PhD

in robotics. According to this data, he

now works for Diiron Aerospace, a company

in Ohio. Fabi, but maybe you

should keep the floating puppet shows to

yourself. TT!

No!

TT, don't do that!

Way to blend in, Superman.

Sir, we just picked up a police report

from a ground wire outside of Pittsburgh.

Something about a man catching a car?At a

ground wire?Well, that's not gonna be

them. Why would Zeta be at a cyber cafe?

Something to do with the cyber part,

perhaps?

Dispatch a field team. Find out if Zeta

was accessing the net, and if so, retrace

what he was looking at. With luck,

that'll tell us where he's headed.

I was gonna say that.

Don't hog the stars

Don't hog the stars Don't

hog the stars Don't hog the

stars Don't hog the stars Don't hog the

starsDon't hog the

stars?I've seen files on groups like

this. They're called spacies. They're

upset that space travel is so costly.

They want it to be free for everyone.

Yeah, and I want a lifetime supply of

chocolate. You do?Because I could

buy... Not all at once. Don't hog the

stars Space is for everyone, man. Fine.

Then give me mine. Don't hog the stars

Don't hog the stars Don't hog the

stars

You're right. There is one in every town.

Pretty nifty. But what about me?Can't go

in there yourself. You might need a

human-to-z translator.

Can you stand on my feet?

Haven't seen you before. First day.

Sure you should be working?Why?Do you

detect a malfunction?

Thanks, Mom.

According to company blueprints, this

should be Dr. Arroyo's lab.

What's he building?It's a surface

explorer for missions to other planets.

And that?

That's an automated defense drone. I

think it's looking for intruders.

Intruders. That would be us,

right?

That thing wants to kill us. It's just

following its program. That's what they

said about you.

Intruder alert. Security to robotics lab

six. Intruder alert.

You're a killer robot. Can't you talk to

it one pro to another?I'll try.

Excuse me. I guess

not. Then like I said, you're a killer

robot. Do your stuff.

knew I kept you around for something.

Lab six. This way. Secure the exits. Get

those spaceys out of here for their own

safety.

Look what I found, a spacey wandering

around the lab. Get your hands off me.

She tripped the alarm, and what are you

doing off the gate?Followed her in. I'll

toss her back outside.

Move your vehicle, now. We need this area

clear.

Captain. How did this

one get past you?Those stiffs?Sleeping on

a job.

Open the gate. Federal agents, we're

expecting them.

The feds. Partners in the hoggage.

Calling in the cavalry. I'd say we

ruffled some feathers. Let's go. This

vibe's getting too heavy.

How you doing?Welcome aboard.

We believe that humanity's destiny lies

in the stars, but that destiny can only

be shared by all if the technology is

free.

Meanwhile, we soar the galaxy with our

minds untilthe day we can leave the

planet for real. I'd say that ship left

long ago. Look, we don't know who you

guys are. We know she got caught trying

to sneak into Dairon, and none of us are

sure where you came from. Bodhi over

there thinks you're an alien.

Anyway, you're in some kind of trouble.

It doesn't take a genius to see that.

Apparently not. As long as you need a

landing pad, you're welcome here with us.

Yeah, he's solid.

Any idea why a renegade infiltration unit

is after you?I was on the design team,

but my clearance was minimal. I don't

know anything. You do know what happens

when Zeta finds his targets.

Well, Dr. Arroyo, I'd say you have a

problem.

When our minds are clear, our energy

auras flow around our bodies. Mind us

that. I could tell that about you.

We're heading back to Dairon, see if

things have mellowed out. You guys want

to come?I'm in. Ro! I don't

think that's safe. If the agents are

still there, they'll spot me in no time.

Not you, just me. I'll scope the place

out and see what's what. They've seen you

too. Yeah.

You guys mind?What's ours is yours, baby.

Stop, I'm fluttery.

It's too dangerous. I promise I'll stay

out of sight, and I won't go on to the

compound. No. If I spend another

second on Planet Neptune, I'm gonna

explode.

Don't hog the stars. Don't hog the stars.

We're too bizars. Our brain's on Mars.

Don't hog the stars. Don't hog the stars.

Doctor of Royal. Don't hog the stars.

Don't hog the stars.

Don't hog the stars. Don't hog the stars.

Don't hog the

stars.

It wouldn't be going on the compound.

Don't hog the stars. Don't hog the stars.

HuhGo! Hurry! What?Who are you?Does the

name Jada mean anything to you?Is it you?

Uh..

Yes! Now drive!

Stop! I was kidding! I'm not Zeta!

Stop!

Whoa. You need to relax. Please,

don't hurt me. I told you, I'm not Zeta.

I'm a friend of his. He wants to meet

you. Why?Why me?'Cause you helped

build him. Look, he's changed. He doesn't

want to hurt people anymore, but no one

even believes he could be peaceful. He's

hoping you'll help convince them.

Heavenly greetings.

Oh, sure. Hold on.

Oh. Thank you.

Hello?Z. What are you doing?

Stretching. Well, cut it out.

Anyway, I talked to Arroyo. Ro,

you promised you wouldn't go on the

compound. I didn't. He came out. He'll

meet with you, but he's kind of jumpy, to

put it mildly. It's got to be on his

turf. Dairon uses a test pad a mile east

on Marshall Road. He's going to leave a

gate open. Get there as soon as you can,

and I'll meet you there. No. You're

taking too many risks, Roe. Wait there.

I'll come for you when I'm done.

Oh, joy. More time with Astrolabs.

Dr. Arroyo.

That's him, Doctor. Move into the circle

like we discussed. Once Zeta's in

position, we'll activate the EM field.

Zeta will be trapped, but you'll be able

to walk right through.

Zeta?Thank you for

meeting me. I

know you must be afraid. What do you want?

I've been running a long time. I hope you

can help me.

Now! Do it!

No. We gotta spread our

message better. It's all about the net.

But big business owns the net. If we just

channel the global vibration... What do

you morons hope to achieve?Convince

Dairon to change its ways. You're

delirious. People don't just change. You

gotta get your heads in reality. You

changed that guy's mind today. You said

he was scared of Z, and then he agreed to

meet him. That did go kinda easy.

Bennett. Guys, Zee's in trouble and he

needs your help. He is an alien.

Stay away! No, stop!

Doctor, what's happening?Move in!

You saved my life. After I lured you into

a trap, you did what you thought was

right.

A hole in the field this way.

Let the alien go. This is government

business. Peace to the alien. You're all

under arrest.

He's got a phone call, man.

When I get back there, they'll probably

arrest me. That's my fault. I'm sorry.

Don't be. I did what I thought was right.

The man you want to find is Eli Selig.

Dr. Selig was the genius behind you. He

programmed every line, got his hands in

every system. If anyone can convince

people you're not a killer, it's him. Dr.

Selig. How do I find him?That's the hard

part. He's moved on to another project.

Even more classified than you. Where he

lives, how he moves, the government keeps

all that secret. Then what are we

supposed to do?Selig's not as big on

staying hidden as his keepers would like.

He crops up now and then, speaking here,

consulting there. Watch

the net. You'll find him.

Come on. Sounds like we got a long road

ahead. Where do you think we should start?

Let's hit the next ground wire. You can

start searching the net. And I think I'm

going to try another root beer cherry

cola. I have to say, the more I learn

about you, the more I'm confused. Get

used to it. You're with a human now.

Another object from the past?This was a

writing tool called a pen. They said it

was mightier than the sword. Uh-huhExcept

a sword's bigger and sharper. I noticed

that, too.
