01x08 - Right as Raynes

Post by bunniefuu »

CARTER: Come on, Zoe!
ZOE: Just a minute!

This is obstruction
of justice.

(LAUGHING)
And how do you figure?

You're making me
late for work.

So, you're justice.
Yeah, I'm justice.

SARAH: Sheriff,
do you need your coffee?

What do you think?
Pouring now.

Hurry it up, Zoe!

SARAH, if this is the house
of the future, how come
there's only one bathroom?

Is there a shortage
of bathrooms in the future?

Where is it?
Where's what?

Your hair.

Where's my hair?

No, you...
What did you do to it?

Let me guess.
You don't like it.
No, I didn't say that.

So you do like it.

I didn't say that either.

Figures.

Now, come on!
I mean, did it even occur
to you to ask me?

You always say no.
No, I don't.

So, if I would've asked you,
you would've said yes?

We would've
discussed it.

And then you would've
said no.

That's not the point.

Okay, I got
to go to school.

We're not done
discussing this.

And don't forget,
you have a therapy session
with Beverly today.

About that, look, I...
No "about that."
We had a deal.

Well,
I want to renegotiate.

Well, you should've
thought of that

before you set your head
on fire. You're going.

Fine.

And wear a hat!

Judging by those dark circles,
I'd say iron deficiency.

More like sleep deficiency.

Stark's k*lling me.

Well, this will pep you up.

Eudoxus over easy
with spinach
and ginseng reduction.

Eudoxus of Cnidus?

The Greek astronomer?

Honestly, I don't know
why I bother.

Oh, my God.

Callister Raynes?

Hello, Vincent.

VINCENT: I thought
you'd dropped off
the face of the planet.

Close enough.

So, what brings you back?

Guess I was feeling
a little homesick.

Have you seen her yet?

Who?

Please, you know exactly
who I'm talking about.

Jo.

Not yet.
You think she's still mad?

Well, she's still Jo, so...

Listen, Callister,
for what it's worth,

I never believed
you were responsible.

And I don't think
Jo did either.

But you probably
don't want to talk
about that right now.

What about Stark?
Does he know you're here?

Any minute now.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

NATHAN: Ladies, gentlemen,
distinguished colleagues,

thank you so much
for taking time out
of your busy schedules

to join me here today,
but I assure you what...

Dr. Stark,
I need to talk to you.

(BEEPING)

Excuse me for a moment.

I swear to God, Fargo,
the world better be on fire.

Actually, pretty close.

I'm sorry, but something's
come up that demands
my immediate attention.

We'll have to continue
this at a later time.

Hey, George Jetson!
How's it going?

Looks like some kind
of program error
fried one of the chips.

You're going to have
to give me a minute
to put in a new one.

All right. Well, hurry up.

Traffic cop is so not
in my job description.

You must not have read
the fine print.

But on the bright side,
the orange really
brings out your eyes.

Enjoying yourself?

(CHUCKLING)
You have no idea.

So?

Oh, Jo's filling out
the security reports
as we speak.

That's what
you said yesterday.

Because that's what
she told me yesterday.

Hey, stop it slow!
All set!

(BEEPING)

Let me know if it gives you
anymore trouble.

Thanks, Henry.

So, come on.
I'll let you buy me
a cup of coffee.

It's free.

Well, in that case I'll buy.

Okay.

I think this could
be our thing.

Don't push it, traffic boy.
We don't have a thing.

(CHRISTMAS MUSIC
PLAYING ON STEREO)

(EXCLAIMING)

It's freezing in here!

Here, let... Take the...

That's much better.
Are you enjoying yourself?

I have no idea.

Take this off.

Sorry, guys, the CPU's
out on the thermostat.
Just roll with it.

Buttered rum? Mulled cider?
Hot toddy?

Is that Christmas music?

I said just roll with it.

Okay.

So, admit it.
We have a thing.

You've got to be
kidding me.

Ouch. All right.

Not you. Him.

Callister Raynes,
in the flesh.

Just strolls in here
this morning like nothing
ever happened.

Who's Callister Raynes?

He was a computer programmer
that Nathan brought in
for a classified project.

Brilliant kid.
Everyone loved him.

I'm sensing a "but."

But the two of them
had a falling out.

A week later,
Nathan's lab was
destroyed by a fire.

Wow.

Callister was
the prime suspect.

Uh-oh. Show time.

Jo, those reports aren't
going to write themselves.

(SHUSHING) Carter, Carter.

You've no idea. This is...

Hey, Jo.

I was just about to stop by
and see if you...

That's for coming back.

And that's for leaving.

I'll get back
to those reports.
No rush.

They have a history.

I gathered.

What?

Taking the Christmas theme
a bit far, don't you think?

This isn't my doing.

Callister Raynes, right?

Yes.

Yeah, I don't think
we've been
formally introduced.

I'm Jack Carter.
I'm the new sheriff.
How you doing?

Did you need something,
Sheriff?

I was just stopping to see
if you were okay.

Oh, right.

I'll be fine.

Where you headed?

I'm going to Beverly's.

Really?

Because that's
back that way.

Right, of course.

(CHUCKLES)

Here, hop in.
I'll give you a lift.

No, I like to walk.

Seriously?

JO: (ON RADIO)
S2 to S1, repeat.
S2 to S1, over.

Jo, it's just you and me.
You can feel free to be
a little less formal.

Over.

There's an electrical problem
at Osborne's farm on the way
into town. Over.

See? Was that so hard?

You didn't say over.

I know. It's going to
bug her all day long.

(BEEPING)

I heard you were back.

Figured you'd find
your way here
sooner or later.

I was curious
how much you kept.

I probably should've
destroyed it all
after you left,

but I couldn't.

I didn't realize
you were so sentimental.

You can't be here,
Callister.

We can't risk it.

I know.

Then why did you come back?

Because something
is very wrong.

When you're done
with a communiqué,

you're supposed
to say "over."

I forgot. Sorry.

Not gonna hit me,
are you?

What happened
between Callister
and me was private.

Yeah, I gathered that
from the way you handled it

so discreetly
in a very public café.

Yeah.

So, what's the problem here?

Osborne said he had
a power surge this morning

and his electrical fence
is malfunctioning.

Would a fence like this
run off a computer?

Almost everything
in Eureka does. Why?

Well, I think I feel
a hunch coming on.

(GRUNTING)

(COWS MOOING)

Come on!

Jo!

Yeah?

You could've told me
it was magnetized.

Oh, I forgot. Sorry.

Jo!

I'll go see
if I can shut it down.

That'd be super.

Oh, good.

I was worried
everyone wouldn't get
a chance to see this.

Hey, Allison!
What are you doing here?

I heard there was
another glitch.

Yeah, yeah.
Got it under control.

So, I'll catch you up
on it later.

What are you hiding?

Nothing.

(SIGHING)

No. No, Allison! Don't!

(ALLISON EXCLAIMING)

Hi.
Hi.

The fence is magnetized.

Yeah, I see that.

You know what?
I think I can...

What are you doing?
No, I'm just trying...

I think that I can...
No, stop. Stop the wiggle...

Oh!

I'm trying to shut it off.

Jo is trying
to shut off the fence.

Okay.

So how are you?
Fine.

You?
Good.

Good.

So, these glitches
are becoming
a little worrisome.

How so?
Well, you know,
three today,

two's a coincidence.
Three's a pattern.

Oh. I can...
I can... I got the...

It...
Yeah.

There you go.

Thanks.

Yeah, it was my pleasure.

JO: Guys?

I shut the fence down
a while ago.

Oh.

I'm going to...
'Cause...
Okay. Yeah.

The central processing unit
from the computer
that regulates the fence,

it's fried.

Thanks, Jo.

Allison, wait up.

You might want
to come to Henry's.

I have a feeling you're
gonna want to hear this.

How long?

A few weeks.

Maybe more.

How bad?

I've been losing control.

And it's getting worse.

Okay, I want you
to stay here.
No.

I didn't come
all the way back
to be left alone.

It is too dangerous
for you to be wandering
around town.

Dangerous for who?

Listen to me.

I'm not going through
all that again,

not after everything
I sacrificed to help
you leave.

You're not the only one
who sacrificed.

I'll be back
as soon as I can.

There's your problem.

That's what's been
messing up everything
on the Internet.

Is this our glitch?
Glitch? No, that's a virus.

You guys should have
switched to Macs.

It's a little bit more
complicated than that.

You see, Eureka has its own
operating system, one that's
unlike any in the world.

Viruses don't just happen.
They have to be written
by someone

who is intimately familiar
with the operating system.

Like, oh, say,
a computer programmer
who used to live in Eureka?

Point taken. Henry,
how dangerous is this?

Well, the entire system is
run on a wireless Internet.

And the traffic light,
the AC, the electric fence.

HENRY: If the virus
isn't stopped,

whoever is behind it
may be able to get access

to something
more dangerous
than traffic lights.

All right.
How do you want
to deal with this?

Why don't you talk
to Stark? See if Callister
contacted him

and what he knows
about the virus.

Jo.

Carter, please,
I'm almost done, okay?

This isn't about
the security checks.

I need the file
on the fire that Callister
was accused of setting.

He wasn't accused,
he was suspected
and we cleared him.

Well, maybe he wasn't
involved with what
happened then,

but I'm pretty sure
he's involved
with what's happening now.

Carter, I know
this is gonna sound weird,
especially coming from me,

but he's not like that.

And I hope that you're right,

but you know as well
as I do that I can't stop
an investigation

just because you're involved
with some guy.

I wouldn't ask you to.

I just thought you might
want my opinion.

Jo...
I've got to get back
to those reports.

Hey.

Oh, hello.

Guest or patient?

Excuse me?
Are you a guest
or a patient?

I have a room here,
if that's what you mean.

Yes, but is it padded?

I'm a guest.

Cool.

Patient.

Not like I'm crazy
or anything.

Actually my dad's
making me go here.

Apparently I have
issues with authority
and listening and...

I don't know. Other stuff.
I wasn't really
paying attention so...

You two don't get along?

He thinks I'm a delinquent

but, you know,
I'm just a product
of my environment.

Believe me,
I know that feeling.

I'm Callister.

Zoe.

Nice to meet you, Zoe.

I like your hair.

Thank you, Callister.

Thank you, Duncan.

I was able to reschedule
the demonstration for 3:00.

Good, because
you're gonna be running it.

What? Why?
I'm taking
the rest of the day.

Well, that's
got to be a first.

Allison.

Fargo, give us a minute?

Did you know
Callister Raynes
was coming back?

I didn't even know
he was here.

Really?

So he hasn't contacted you?

I think that was implied
by my first answer.

Now if you'll excuse me,
Allison.

Are you all right?
I'm just feeling
a little under the weather.

You haven't taken a sick day
since I've known you.

You always told me
to take better care of myself.

There's a virus
on the Internet, Nathan.

Really?

Eureka has a virus.

Okay, I'll take care of it.

Right now, I've got to go.

Nathan,
what is going on really?

Nothing is going on,
all right? Really.

I'll take care of the virus.

Well, this inventory list
doesn't make any sense.

I mean, you can't tell me
that in Stark's
top secret lab,

all he had was
the standard stuff
listed here.

It was a fire.
It probably b*rned.

Well,
that's exactly my point.

Anything lost in a fire
has got to be documented
as destroyed.

Unless it's classified.

That's a good point.

Can you run Callister's name
through your security check?

Fine, but you're not
gonna find anything.

Nothing came up.
It was worth a sh*t.

No, I mean nothing came up.

It's like somebody's
gone in here and erased
all his records.

Hold on,
I'm getting a fax.

This guy isn't
who he says he is.

He's been lying
about everything.

Someone's been
lying all right.

Son of a bitch.

Hello.
I'm sorry I'm late.

Zoe, you look, lovely.

Thank you.

Your room is all ready,
Callister.

If you need anything else,
you just let me know.
Okay?

(TIRES SCREECHING)

The lies stop
right here. Right now.

I know what you did.

Identity theft.
Credit card fraud.

What the hell
were you thinking?

Look, the credit card
company will cover it.

The most she's gonna
have to pay is,
like, 50 bucks.

That's not the point!

Ajeet...

Gandhavadi shouldn't
have to pay a penny for you.

I'll pay her back.

I thought
we were past this!

We are... I am!

Look, that was from before
I even came here.

Exactly,
and when you showed up,
what did I say?

Look at me!
What did you promise me?

No more secrets.

Exactly.

When you showed up,
it was all cards
on the table,

no secrets.
That was our deal.

And you sat there
and you lied to my face.

And for what?
A shopping spree?

A trip to Bermuda?
Some online gambling?
What was it? What was it...

I bought a bus ticket!
To Eureka!

You had to steal it?

You couldn't
come to me for help?

Yeah, right.

Don't do that.
That's not fair.

I haven't always
been the world's
greatest dad,

but I have always
been there for you
when you needed help.

So you're saying
that if I said that I wanted
to come live here,

you would just
make it happen.

Of course.

Well, I guess
we're both liars, now.

I can't do this anymore.
I'm done, Zoe.

Dad!
Done! Not a word!

Is he always that angry?

We're working on it.

It's okay.

(TIRES SCREECHING)

Callister!

Damn it.

Hit me.

I'm cutting you off.
I think three's your limit.

I don't pay you to think.
I pay you to pour.

Actually,
you don't pay me at all.

What's going on, Zoe?

Oh, I don't know.

My dad hates me.

Why? What did you do?

See? Now why do you
automatically assume
that it's my fault?

Is it?
No.

Okay, yes,
but not the point.

I screwed up. Bad.

And now he's sending me
back to LA.

He said that.
Yes.

Okay, no, but I can read
between the lines.

He said
he was done with me.

Zoe, he's not gonna
send you away.

You're right.

And you know why?

'Cause I'm not
gonna let him.

Good for you.

Bye, Vince.

Carter? Where the hell
have you been?

I don't want
to talk about it.

Are you okay?

Yeah.
Could we just work now?

Really want to work.

All right.

Did you get anything
from Stark?

Not really. He said
he didn't even know
Callister was here.

What happened when you
mentioned the virus?

He gave me this weird look
and then he just ran off.

That's not
at all suspicious.

Yeah.

And you think
he'd be worried about
the effects on Global.

Well, maybe he's worried
about something else.

Or someone else.

This is the case file
from the fire.

I've been over it
a dozen times
and everything in it.

Everything points
to Callister torching
Stark's lab

but Stark insisted
it was faulty wiring.

So you think that
he was protecting Callister?

I think he still is.

Callister!

Nathan?
Where is he?

Is everything okay?
I know he's here.
Where is he?

He's upstairs.
I'll go get...

Nathan, what's going on?

Callister!

NATHAN: Damn it!

Why didn't you listen to me?
Look at you.

What did you think
you were going to do?

(RUMBLING)

Get out of the house.

Nathan, what...
Get out of the house now!

Oh, my God.

Nathan?

Nathan, what...

Nathan, wait!

Oh, my God.

Callister, what did you do?

Come on.

I didn't mean to...
Keep going.

(SIREN WAILING)

Beverly, are you okay?

I'm fine,
but look at my house.

What happened?
I don't know.

Stark came in,
screaming for Callister.

The next thing I know,
the whole place is on fire.

Where are they now?

They left, and I think
Callister got b*rned.

Okay.

Henry!
Where's the hydrant?

I'll help you hook it up.

Carter, this is Eureka.

Beverly, is everybody out?

Yes.

Clear!

Right.

Eureka.

(MACHINE BEEPING)

As you can see,
the nanotech composite
has limited...

Limitless capabilities
for replication.

Where are they, Fargo?

If you'll excuse me
for a moment, everyone.

Can't you see
I'm in a meeting?

Where are they?

I honestly don't know.

Let me come
at this another way.

Do you know where
your Sarah Michelle Gellar
doll is?

Because I do,

and if I have to,
I will go get it out
of your desk

and show it
to those nice people.

Now, where do you
think they are?

ALLISON:
There's Nathan's car.

Are you okay?
I don't know.

I mean, technically,
I'm still married to Nathan,

but right now
I have no idea
who he even is.

Well, whatever's going on,
if he's lying I'm sure
he has a reason.

What could that
possibly be?

I don't know,
but I think we're
about to find out.

ALLISON: Oh, my God.

Stark, step aside!
Callister! Put your hands
in the air!

Carter, wait!
Quiet!

Callister, put your hands
where I can see them.

Carter, listen to me.

Nathan!
Allison, I can explain.

Carter, do not hurt him.
Don't want to.

Callister,
I don't want to sh**t you.
Show me your hands.

I can't.

Yes, you can.

Do as he says.

Okay. Not where
I thought this was going.

I didn't bring him here.
I built him here.

Callister's Al.

So he's a robot.

An artificially
intelligent being.

Then why keep him
a secret?

I mean, this has to be
one of the greatest

scientific breakthroughs
of the modern age.

So was the atomic b*mb.

That doesn't mean
the world was ready for it.

Truth is, I needed
to see if Callister
could assimilate.

So I introduced him
to Eureka as my assistant,

and they embraced him.

Callister formed attachments,
felt relationships.

And you did, too?

I wasn't about to let DARPA
turn him into another
m*llitary project.

How is this possible?

I don't know.

I had dozens of prototypes.
None of them worked,

except for Callister.
I still don't know why.

It's a miracle.

So he didn't burn down
your lab. You did.

I needed them to believe
that the entire project
had been destroyed,

but then Sheriff Cobb
started asking
a bunch of questions,

so I had to send him away.

But, how is he
connected to the virus?

Callister transmits
on a wireless network.

I thought if I changed
his primary microprocessor,
I could fix it.

But his system is
totally corrupted.

Nathan, I'm sorry,
but you know
he can't stay here.

That fire could've
k*lled someone.

I know, but I can't
send him away.

Not again.

(CAR ENGINE STARTING)

(TIRES SCREECHING)

CARTER: I don't think
you'll have to.

Callister! Hey.

CALLISTER: Hey, Zoe.

Where are you headed?

Anywhere but here.

Perfect. Can I get a ride?

Uh...

Well, come on.
Let's get out of here.

Yeah. Yeah, okay.

Stolen, black, late model
Beemer, seven series.

License, Stark One.

Yeah, I'll hold.

You okay?

It's just my luck, right?

All the good ones
are either gay, married,
or robots.

Get anything?
No, and we looked
everywhere.

How about you two?
Yeah, I'm here.

How long ago?

Great. Okay,
if you find them,

stop them and call me
immediately. Thanks.

Wait. Them?

They found the car
at a gas station
off Interstate 17.

The attendant said that
there was a red-headed girl
in the passenger seat.

It's Zoe.

(WOMAN CHATTERING ON PA)

(GROANING)

Callister!

It's okay.
Let's just go.

They wouldn't just
ditch the car

unless they had
some other way
of getting around.

They must be on some form
of public transportation.

I've checked every airport,
bus terminal, taxi service

and ferry within 50 miles.

There's nothing
on Callister Raynes
or Zoe Carter.

Try another name.
Try Ajeet.

Ajeet Gandhavadi.

Two tickets
on an International
Stageline bus

leaving out
of Summerville.

It departs
in less than an hour.

Okay, you two stay here.
Stark, you're with me.

Call if you hear anything.

(GROANING)
Callister!

Are you okay?
Are you okay?

I didn't want to
leave like this.

Listen, Carter,
I'm truly sorry Zoe
got wrapped up in this.

We're gonna find them.

Whatever you decide to do,

report me or arrest me,

I completely understand.

As far as I'm concerned
the case is closed.

The project was
lost in the fire.

(SIGHING)

You must think
it's kind of crazy

risking everything
for a machine.

Callister just became
so much more than that.

I don't expect you
to understand.

I'm a father.
Of course I understand.

(SIREN BLARING)

Hey, bus 72 to Portland.

It pulled out
a few minutes ago.

I told them to hold it.
Where's the next stop?

Salem downtown terminal.

What's this all about?
ZOE: Dad!

Zoe.

You okay?
I think he's sick.

Callister?

Callister, hey.

Hey, Nathan,
let's get him back
to the car.

Give us a second, will you?

You didn't leave.

I knew he needed help.

Where were you going?

Anywhere but here.

You were right, before.

If you had called
and asked to come to Eureka,

I would've said no.

And I would've regretted it
for the rest of my life.

You said
you were done with me.

Zoe, you're my daughter
and I'll never ever
be done with you.

I messed everything up again,
didn't I?

No, it was my fault.

I should have
never sent you away
in the first place.

I'm scared.

I'm not ready.

I know.

What's gonna happen to me?

Remember what
Alan Turing said?

He figured God
could give a computer
a soul if he wanted to.

Do you think
that's true?

I know it is.

(SOBBING)

Hey.

What are you doing here?

I was just
on my way to school.

So...

I spoke to
the credit card company

and pulled some strings
with my old boss.

You know you're gonna have to
pay back every penny, right?

I know.

I will.

Great.

Okay.

Zoe.

(CLEARING THROAT)

I was wrong about your hair.

I like it.

Really?

Because I think
I'm going back to blonde.

Oh, thank God!
