[Mia grunts]

[flames crackling]

f*ck!

[Mia gasps, grunts] f*ck.

The hallway collapsed.

Is there another way out?

- Look in

- [Mia] Huh?

in my pocket.

[Winter coughing, gasping]

There's a shaft. [coughing]

[Mia] Thanks.

[Jasper coughs]

[Mia] Jasper?

- Jasper. Jasper, wake up.

- [Jasper gasping]

Jasper! Jasper, can you hear me?

We have to go now.

Come on!

- [Jasper coughs]

- Come on!

- [Jasper] What?

- It's okay. It's okay. We have to get out.

- Can you stand up?

- [Jasper] Wait, wait.

[coughing]

[Jasper coughing]

[Mia] You okay?

[Jasper grunts]

Something's wrong with my leg.

Come on.

- [Jasper coughs]

- The door over there.

There has to be another exit in the back.

[beep]

[Winter groaning, gasping]

- [Mia] We have to help him.

Help is on the way.

[tense music grows to crescendo]

[theme music playing]

[ominous music playing]

[Jasper] Mia.

[approaching footsteps]

Come on.

[Mia] We have to find the shaft.

[Jasper] It's here.

[Mia grunts]

[Jasper] Up there, huh?

[Mia] Mm-hmm.

[Mia grunts]

[both grunting]

[rattling, clanking]

[Jasper grunting]

[straining]

- [Mia] Jasper.

- Come on.

- I can't hold on.

- Here.

Here. Hey, just a little more.

[both grunt]

- Look at me. I'll pull you up.

- [Mia yelps]

[Mia gasping]

Climb! [grunts]

- [Mia grunting]

- Got you! I got you.

I got you. I got you.

I got you. I got you.

[Mia breathing heavily]

For our next date,

let's stay home and watch a movie, okay?

[both chuckle]

- Okay.

- Okay.

[Mia] Okay.

[tense music playing]

[Mia] Okay.

[Jasper grunts]

[thumping]

[Mia grunts]

[silence]

There's Winter's car. Come on.

[high-pitched sound]

We're going to the hospital.

[car door closes]

Papa?

[Mia] Wait a minute.

That way.

[Jasper] Rheinhausen?

To Lorenz?

Yeah, we have to warn her.

Fürstenberg's after her now.

You need to see a doctor.

We're the only ones

who know she's in danger.

My phone's dead.

Your phone's with Fürstenberg.

- If we don't warn her, no one will.

- We don't know how long you've got left.

[distant siren blaring]

It's okay.

I can handle it.

[siren blaring]

[siren fades]

[Lotta] Papa?

[tense music playing]

Papa?

[sighs]

[distant siren blaring]

f*ck!

[indistinct chattering]

[phone buzzing]

Niklas.

I've been waiting for you here,

and I'm starting to worry.

Where are you?

I can't really talk right now.

[breathing heavily]

You're welcome to stay here

until Lotta gets home.

Thanks.

I really hope that she calms down.

We don't have anything against her.

It's complicated and confusing,

and I wanna sort it all out

so we can all return

to being friends like before.

Yeah, I do too.

[chuckles]

[doorbell ringing]

Hello. Um, it's an emergency.

Can we talk to Tanja, please?

Uh, she's not here.

Where is she?

She went to see someone named Jasper.

I have no idea where.

I'm Jasper.

[Mia] Do you have a phone?

Ours are broken.

Yes, of course. Come in.

[typing]

- Here you are.

- [phone line ringing]

- [tense music playing]

- [car phone ringing]

INCOMING CALL

MOM

- What is it?

- It's Mia.

Fürstenberg knows what's going on.

Get out of there.

- sh*t.

- [Mia] Jasper's with me.

Fürstenberg took his phone.

[Lorenz] Goddammit. How much does he know?

[Mia] Everything.

He read all of Jasper's messages.

- [Lorenz] Do you have the book?

- Yeah.

There are more, hundreds,

all full of other projects like h*m* Deus.

Good. How are you doing?

Not so good.

Okay. Let's meet at the Excellence Center

for the handover,

then we can get everything sorted out.

But the center's

the first place he'll be looking for us.

This process demands special equipment.

And nobody else in Germany has it.

CALL VON FÜRSTENBERG

[disconnect tone]

[Mia sighs]

Wolfgang.

[Baron] Where you going?

Did you really think I'd be okay with you

not sticking to our agreement like this?

I'm holding up my end.

I'm saving your research until you

get out of prison and can work again.

You're forgetting the other part here,

the one where I don't rat you out

and get a shorter sentence.

That's something I can't control.

Mm. That's too bad.

[Baron] I have your documents.

Your lab was destroyed.

- You need me.

- I don't need anybody.

I have my knowledge,

my education, my ideas,

and I know h*m* Deus inside and out.

I can just start over again.

The only thing I need is

Mia.

You need Mia.

[disconnect tone]

[sighs]

Hey, Siri, FaceTime Weber.

[phone beeps, ringing]

- [car tone]

- [assistant voice] Autopilot activated.

[phone line ringing]

Hello, Professor?

I have proof that will show

Baron von Fürstenberg

is the one behind this,

not just h*m* Deus.

There are other projects

just like it in scale.

Uh, how many other projects?

A lot. A whole lot.

I want you to call the DA with a new deal,

and you can tell him that I'm prepared

to disclose dozens of secret projects

as well as my colleagues and sponsors

if he lets me go free.

You need to make sure you know

what this means for you

and how many enemies you'll be making.

If everyone likes you, you lack character.

Okay?

- So can you do this?

- [Weber] Yeah.

I think that's exactly the kind of deal

the DA will happily accept.

Very good.

[exhales sharply]

- [car tone]

- [assistant] Autopilot deactivated.

[indistinct chattering]

[medic] Out of the way, please.

- [Lotta] Is my father in there?

- Excuse me.

I need to know where my father is.

[distant siren blaring]

- [Jasper] Okay?

- I think it's getting worse. Let's go.

[door handle rattles]

[high-pitched sound]

[sniffles]

[groans]

[breathing heavily]

[Jasper] Hey.

It's okay.

Man, you guys look like sh*t.

The book.

[pensive music playing]

Thanks, Monique.

[pensive music continues]

[phone buzzing]

Papa!

No, I'm in your lab.

So can you come?

[tense music playing]

Where's the ultrasound helmet

for sonication?

There hasn't been a high success rate

for it to be profitable since you left.

- Our budget got cut.

- And the rest? Where is it?

[Monique] We sold the controller

and the helmet.

Oh sh*t!

Looks like you cut the wrong corners.

What do we absolutely need to save her?

We need a brain-computer interface

with a different polarization.

[echoing] Then we'll break through

the blood-brain barrier

so that it can be infiltrated

by Mia's immune system.

[Jasper] How long will it take to get?

[Monique] There aren't any in Germany.

[Jasper] How long?

- I know I know where one is.

- [Monique] A few days, maybe.

There's an interface in the apartment.

- [Jasper] What?

- [gasping]

Mia! Diazepam now!

- [Monique] I'm on it!

- Mia.

- I'll get the interface.

- [Lorenz] Okay.

- [groans, gasps]

- Mia, calm down! Mia, calm down!

Calm down!

Come here, Mia.

- Look at me. Hey, look at me, okay?

- [gasping]

It's okay. Look at me.

- Hey, you're good. You're good.

- [gasping]

Come here. Everything's okay.

[approaching footsteps]

Well, I'm sure you have questions.

Hey! You're awake.

Question. Did you drive here?

- Mia needs us.

- Mm-hmm.

Our forefathers,

your great-grandfather,

your grandfather, me now,

we are patrons of the sciences.

There are some things, though,

that the world

is not yet ready to be shown.

Powerful sources of energy

that would be misused as weapons,

artificial intelligence

that would

replace human interaction completely.

All things humanity wants,

yet all they see are themselves

and their own microcosms.

Someone must see the bigger picture.

That's what we have to do.

[exhales sharply]

Tanja Lorenz

has developed a new medication

that prevents every illness entirely.

h*m* Deus.

It would lead to expl*sive overpopulation,

wars fought over drinking water,

food, and space.

[breathes deeply]

The key to Lorenz's discovery

is your friend Mia.

And Lorenz is on her way to her now.

Those two can't meet up.

Where's Mia?

I'm not sure.

[tense music playing]

I know who I can ask though.

Here.

Okay.

[phone buzzing]

You guys go ahead. Give me a sec.

Hey.

Hey.

Sorry I couldn't really talk before.

- There was a fire on our property.

- What? You holding up okay?

Yeah, it's all good.

So are you still at home?

[Niklas] No, I'm at the Excellence Center.

Mia's in really bad shape.

Lorenz is trying to save her.

sh*t. Think I should come?

[Niklas] That's nice of you, but I think

there's enough of us here already.

Let's just meet at home later,

and we can talk all about it then.

No one wants to keep fighting,

especially not me.

Yeah, I'll see you at home.

- Talk to you then.

- [Niklas] See you later.

[exhales sharply]

The guilt you feel now

speaks to your good character.

And so does the loyalty

you have to your family, you know.

[kisses]

[Ole echoing] Okay.

So just to make sure I've got this right.

You say the ultrasound waves

jolt the tissue

so that the membranes expand

and immune system can get inside?

Yeah. The wrong setting

would soften her entire brain,

not just the blood-brain barrier.

Not good. New idea. We could find out

what kind of nanoparticles Winter used

to get Oblivion into the brain

and then used them

- [voices echo]

- [high-pitched sound]

[normal] Doing that would take weeks.

This is Mia's only chance.

[breathing heavily]

[Chen-Lu] This is the shittiest idea

in the entire history of shitty ideas.

[Lorenz] Okay, so Oblivion

folds the protein in the brain,

responsible for

the manifestation of memories.

But from what I'm seeing,

the newly folded protein is a prison

that changes the shape of

the same proteins until they no longer

[Mia echoes] My name is Emma Mia Akerlund.

- voluntarily and of sound mind

- [shrill sound]

[Ole] Don't worry about it.

[Lorenz] It's like Creutzfeldt-Jakob,

just 1,000 times faster.

I worked with Fürstenberg and Winter.

I helped them both

voluntarily.

I just forgot.

I made a deal with them.

I'm so sorry I got you all into this.

Hey. We all have good days

and bad days, right?

Yeah, and we'll talk about it all

when you wake up.

You're not in any state

to do that right now.

And just so you know,

we love you the way you are.

Yeah.

- Let's get this thing started.

- Okay.

[Lorenz] You sure you trust me to do this?

[sighs] You would've k*lled me a while ago

if you wanted to do that.

I could be wrong.

Okay. We'll do 60 seconds per burst.

Sinus-shaped ultrasound impulses,

frequency 515 kHz

at 5,000 cycles per burst.

[Ole] 5,000 cycles.

[Lorenz] And an interburst interval

of 64 milliseconds.

Okay.

Ready?

[shuddered breathing]

All right, then. Here we go.

[machine pulsing, beeping]

[pulsing hum]

[humming intensity increases]

[Mia echoing] Where are my friends?

[Jasper] You wanna open your present?

Guess what it is.

Do you wanna know what it really meant?

- [Mia echoes] What do you want?

- [Jasper echoes] To explain!

- [Jasper] Please, talk to me.

- [Mia] Why?

Why?

What do you think, huh?

You just show up and say sorry,

and now everything is okay?

[crowd cheering in video]

[echoing voices]

[emotional music playing]

[Baron] Come, come, Mia.

[muffled scream]

[echoing sounds]

[Baron] We have a problem.

You can't run around freely with knowledge

of the h*m* Deus medication.

Either you forget everything

in the past 24 hours,

or I'll have to make you disappear.

[echoing] Forever.

There's a research project

called Oblivion,

the morning-after pill for shitty days.

It would be interesting

to find out how it works

for you.

[Mia echoing] Never.

[Baron] You're young.

You spent the past year

trying to complete your father's mission.

Now you're free. You can look forward.

I don't wanna take that away.

[Mia echoing] What about Lorenz?

[Baron] Lorenz is going to jail.

- What do you use h*m* Deus for?

- [Baron echoing] Nothing.

No one will ever know. I'll make sure

all the records of it disappear.

I'm on your side.

Had it been up to me,

h*m* Deus would never

even have been explored.

[muffled screaming]

[wistful music playing]

[Lorenz] I knew

I could trust your moral compass.

[Mia] Grandma! I can't understand you!

[indistinct chattering]

Hey. Oh, sweetheart. Baby girl. Oh.

They'll always be with you in your heart.

[grandma] A part of you.

[emotional music playing]

And they'll live on

in your memory forever.

You'll never forget them.

[sighs]

[Lotta] She's alive.

Good. Then let's finish what we started.

Watch Lorenz now.

She knows Oblivion alone

won't be enough for her.

[Mia] You lied to me.

You financed h*m* Deus.

My brother and my parents

are dead because of you.

- It's your fault.

- I don't want to hurt you, Mia.

Lotta.

- Please let us go.

- I can't do that.

f*ck, Lotta! Your psycho dad's

doing something to Mia!

- She needs help!

- He's not gonna harm her.

Since I met Mia, she just used everyone

for her own personal vendetta.

You said it's okay to sacrifice one life

to save many.

Oh, but not if it means you'd be affected.

And you attacked a train, Jasper!

You guys are the psychos!

My father's just fixing

what Lorenz couldn't!

- [scoffs]

- [Lotta] What?

Why? Why pay for h*m* Deus

if you're not gonna use it?

To make sure nobody misuses it.

Everybody should have the right

to make decisions about their health.

If everyone could choose

between getting healed or not,

they would obviously

all choose to be healed.

The world's population

is already being pushed.

The planet is collapsing.

It needs someone

to take on this responsibility.

h*m* Deus is a part of me.

And no one could take it away.

- [grunts]

- That's not a choice you get to make.

[Mia grunts]

[tense music playing]

Family is a complicated thing.

Leave me alone.

[Jasper grunts]

[Lorenz] As a child,

I also just wanted my parents to love me.

I did anything for their love.

[tense music playing]

[Mia grunts]

I was the best student at my school.

I was the youngest professor in Germany.

- It was never enough. Never enough.

- Can you just shut it?

The people that I got recognition from,

my professors,

the scientific community,

my investors.

My whole life, I always took the path

that others chose for me.

- Don't make the same mistake.

- Shut up right now!

Hey, Lotta.

Sit down right now.

You're not gonna sh**t.

You're better than that. I know you.

Sit down!

- [tense music playing]

- [Mia grunts]

[Baron grunts]

[Mia grunting, groaning]

- Nothing's happened yet.

- [strap clicks]

It's okay.

We'll figure things out.

[sobbing]

f*ck!

[tense music playing]

- [Mia grunts]

- Watch out, Papa!

[both grunting, groaning]

No!

I said stop it! [grunts]

[thud]

[approaching footsteps]

[Niklas] We need an ambulance

at the Freiburg Institute.

Two people are injured. Immediately.

[emotional music playing]

[inaudible]

[emotional music continues]

- [Jasper] Hey.

- Hey.

How are you?

How's your leg?

Better than your broken arm.

[Ole] Hey.

Mia!

And is your head back in order?

Did the sonication work?

Any time, but let's not do it again.

Yeah.

[Ole laughs]

- [Mia] Where's Lorenz?

- She had an appointment with her lawyer.

And Fürstenberg?

Is he?

And Lotta?

[approaching footsteps]

[machine beeping]

- [Uli] What happened?

- [sobs]

[Lotta crying]

[Baron moans]

Papa?

I want [moans]

Could you give us a minute alone with him?

- I'm almost done.

- Right now, please.

[door closes]

[gulps]

It's something

it's something that can't wait, okay?

You have to do something for me [groans]

for the for the family.

[blinds motor whirring]

[bird squawking]

[door hydraulics hiss]

[emotional music playing]

How are you doing?

My arm

but up here, it's working again.

You have a good immune system.

Yeah, the best.

Thank you.

Thank you for the book.

And now h*m* Deus can benefit everybody.

[Mia exhales sharply]

Well, you wanted to see me, so

I thought you did.

- [g*nsh*t]

- [gasps]

[gasps]

[ominous music playing]

[Lorenz groaning]

[Lorenz gasping, grunting]

Mia!

What?

[Lorenz labored breathing]

[exhales sharply]

[Mia breathing heavily]

[sobs]

No.
