05x07 - Ex Machina

Post by bunniefuu »

I want to tell you
I love you.

CARTER:
Previously on Eureka...

We could all be inside
some totally advanced
computer construct

that just looks and feels
like the real world,

and we wouldn't
even know it.

Please dispose of
Doctor Marten, respectfully
and securely.

FARGO: You reactivated
the matrix mainframe?

You didn't tell her
what we're doing, did you?

Relax. No one
is going to find out.

The mainframe has been
tracking the Z waves
of the Astraeus crew.

But it found one
that's still active
inside the program.

Holly?
Doug?

What did you see?
I saw her.

ZANE: What?

She's not just
a damaged
memory file, Zane.

I think Holly is alive.

Is that straight?
It's straight.

Okay, and what do you
think of the flowers,
too cheerful?

I can always
get calla lilies.

No, I think
Holly would love it.

Are you sure that
that picture is straight?

Jo, everything looks great.

I just know that
today is going to be
really hard on Fargo,

and I want everything
to be perfect.

SOLDIER: Perfect.

Mount the next
node up there.

We can get supplementary
coverage from the
one down the hall.

Excuse me,
what's up with the balls?

Nodes.
Nodes.

You must be
Sheriff Carter.
Yes, hi.

Major William Shaw,
Department of Defense.

I'm with Special
Project Security.

And you are?

Wondering why
you are drilling holes
in my facility, sir?

You're looking well, Lupo.

Hmm.

The sergeant and I
served together
in Afghanistan.

Ah.
It's good to see
you again, sir.

Uh, but what
brings you here?

I'm here
to install PanOp,

G.D.'s new
security system.

I sent Dr. Fargo
numerous memos.

I'll go talk to him.

Uh, you and your team
are welcome to wait outside.

We're on a pretty
tight schedule.

Major, you're not putting
those in here today.

Not today.

My apologies.

We'll start with
the rest of the facility.

Thank you.

All right, gentlemen,
we'll start in Sector Four.

Back up.
Yes, sir.

Fargo...

Wow. Um, you doing okay?

Yeah, just wishing
clip-ons were back in style.

I had an awesome one
in seventh grade.
It had robots.

No, I mean with
today and Holly.

Oh, right, um...
Yeah, well, you know,
I'm managing.

Taking it one day
at a time.

Do you know how long
the ceremony is
going to be?

Because I have got
a ton of work to do.

I'm sure that Henry
will be respectful

of both Holly's memory
and people's time.

Are they ready?
Almost.

Uh, Fargo, Major Shaw
is here about
the PanOp installation.

Oh, whoops.
That was today?

(STAMMERS) I have an
e-memo here somewhere.

You know, don't worry.
I'll take care of it.

Now you just take care
of yourself today.

Awesome.
I mean, thank you.

Today, we honor
a fallen friend
and colleague

by dedicating
to her memory

an important
new addition

to the Global
Dynamics Observatory.

Holly always loved
observing the stars.

And now,
to remember her that way,

I present to you
the Dr. Holly Marten
Sodium Beacon.

What is that?

A mesospheric laser.

It creates
an artificial star

as a guide for
stellar cartography.

So, it's sort
of a big laser pointer thing?

May it also remind us
that those we've lost
are never truly gone.

Douglas, would you
care to say something?

Uh, no, thanks.
I'm good.

Hmm, okay.

Holly loved music,

so we'll conclude
with what was apparently
her favorite song.

WOMAN: (SINGING)
Ooh, car wash

Working at
the car wash, yeah

VINCENT: Watch your back.

We have all
Holly's favorites.

Fusilli with gruyère,

peanut purée and
blackberry preserves
on brioche.

Mac and cheese,
and P.B. And J.

Holly would have loved it.

I just, uh... I can't
believe she's gone.

Yeah, it's been
tough on all of us.

Thanks, Vincent.
Yeah.

(SIGHS)

Nice service.
Thank you.

What's this?

Um, Grace's
Z wave research.

She was on the verge
of a breakthrough.

Nascent neural networking.

Wow. I'll pretend
like I understand
what that means.

Congratulations.
(LAUGHS)

I just thought
I'd pick up
where she left off,

but the test
subject pool
is very small.

It's only the 22 of you
who were in the matrix
that developed Z waves.

Well, if you need help,
I'll volunteer.

You sure?

The experiments
are unorthodox.

Yeah, count me in.

Lab-rat Carter
at your service.

Thank you.
There you go.

I'm worried about Fargo.
What? Why?

He's been
missing meetings

and he's sleeping
in his office.

Today at the ceremony,
it was like

he had someplace
more important to be.

I know the two of you
have been up to something.

It's nothing.

Look, he just lost Holly,

and everything today
is a reminder of her.

I don't blame him
for wanting to bail.

If I lost you, I...

You'd swear off
other women for
the rest of your days.

Totally.

Miss Lupo,
sorry to interrupt,

but I can't seem
to locate Dr. Fargo.

I will, uh,
find him for you, sir.

Super.

We have
a full agenda today.

With the PanOp installation
almost complete,

we need to impound
everything related to
the Astraeus abduction.

Top priority
is a photonic
plasma computer.

Hold on.
The matrix computer?

Wait, you didn't say
anything about me?

What was I
supposed to say?

Hey, guys,
nice memorial and all,

but Holly is still
kind of alive.

You could have
at least acted upset.

Well, plenty of people did.

The planetary
sciences team would
not stop bawling.

Cosmo chemists
are very sensitive,
unlike certain people.

So, what did
you dedicate?

Only an awesome
sodium beacon for
the observatory.

You named
a laser pointer after me?

It's for astro-imaging.

It's lame. Why didn't
you ask me what I wanted?

What? But I didn't think
you would care.

You're not even
really gone...

Did you shut down
the program
with me inside?

Are you crazy?

Pull yourself together, man,
we have company.

Fargo, what are
you doing here?

Uh, this lab
is restricted,

so thank you
for unlocking it,
Dr. Fargo.

You are welcome.

Major Shaw. Pleasure
to meet you, Director.

Mind if we start with
the main processor?

Yes, I mind.
What are you doing?

We're shipping
this machine
to Washington.

No, you're not.
You're not taking
this computer.

This computer
is a security liability,

as is everything
your colleagues built
during their abduction.

It has to be
locked up for good.

Take anything
you want, except this.

This machine
has done nothing

but put you
and your people
at risk, Dr. Fargo.

Back off, jackboots.

If anyone is going to
take this machine apart,
it's going to be me.

Yeah, what
the frak, Zane?

Fargo, calm down.

I understand this is
an emotional day
for you, Dr. Fargo.

Why don't you just
let us handle this?

I'm not going anywhere.
Jo, help me.

Um, excuse us.
Fargo, come on.

Let's go for a walk.

What is going on
with you?

You can't let them
take it, please.

Why not?

Because Holly
is still in there.

I'm not crazy,
just ask Zane.

Oh, is that
what you've been
working on together?

We were trying
to get her out.

I just need
to call the D.O.D.

Get her out of where?

Fargo, Holly is gone.

No, she isn't.
She exists in the
photonic hard drive.

She's conscious.
I'm not going to
let them take her.

ALLISON: Okay,
you had quite a jolt

to your
somatosensory pathways
when Zane disconnected you.

We just need
to check you out,

and then we can call
Washington together.

Sorry, excuse me.

Um, call them about what?

About keeping
that computer here

until we can figure out
what's going on.

Allison, I don't think
that this is healthy.
Look at him.

Maybe packing
that thing up will
help him move on.

Or maybe he's right.

Maybe some part
of Holly is
still in there.

Yeah, but as what?
A video game?

No. When I saw Jenna
in the other Eureka,

she was as real
as you are.

Everything in there
feels real.

Yeah, but now
you know it wasn't.

Maybe not.

Listen, Jo,
you weren't there.
You can't understand.

But he wants our help.

You still up for this?
Yep. All good.

Good, okay.

Grace documented
the effect of zeta waves
on the iFire nanobots.

I believe that if
we can learn to focus
and control Z waves,

then we can unlock
whole new frontiers,

telepathy,
telekinesis, who knows?

And you think
I can do this?

Well, we are
about to find out.

Relax, focus, try to
levitate the spheres.

Levitate?

Try to levitate
the spheres
in these tubes.

Just concentrate.

All right.

I'm moving your balls
with my mind.

There must be a better way
to say that, but yes.

Just don't get too excited.

(LAUGHING)

Oh! I was still
calibrating the sensors.

Yeah...

Now that test
responds to alpha waves,

which we all have.

Being used right now
for artificial limbs

or computer
interactive devices.

Oh.

This test
is for zeta waves.
Zeta waves.

Control your zeta waves
and you control the g*n.

g*n?

(STAMMERING) Shouldn't I
be on the other side?

Well, I think
you'll focus better

if you're on the
business end of things.

Says the guy behind
the protective shield.

Mmm-hmm.

(GROANS) Okay.

Come on, Jack,
make the paintballs miss!

Concentrate.
Your zeta waves
are spiking.

Almost there.
(GROANING)

You can do it.

(CONTINUES GROANING)

Dr. Deacon,
Sheriff Carter.

Bad timing?
Uh, no.

We were just, um,
finishing up with something.

I have a list of items
from my inventory

I was hoping
you could track down.

Oh, we'll get
right on that.

Maybe I could
find it with my mind.

SHAW: How would you do that?
Just kidding.

Uh, listen,
we'll let you know

as soon as we find
your projects, Major.

Super.

I'm very angry with you.

Zane, you rebuilt
a dangerous piece
of technology

so Fargo could have
a cyber-girlfriend?

No. We still don't know
exactly what Holly is

and we didn't
want to get anyone in
trouble with the D.O.D.

While we tried
to figure it out.

Okay, listen,
if you and I
are going to work,

you have to be
honest with me, okay?

Not just when
you feel like it,
all the time.

Honest, gotcha.

Now, honestly, babe,
I'm a little busy here.

Okay, Zane, I...
I'm trying
to save Holly, okay?

SHAW: Sorry to interrupt.

Time to box that
bad boy up, Mr. Donovan.

Yeah, it's all yours,
G.I. Joe.

And those little
frown lines you get

between your eyes
when you're mad,

they're adorable. Honest.

Later.

You on such
friendly terms

with all the
scientists around here?

Oh, I'm barely
on friendly terms
with that one.

So, um, how does this
PanOp system work exactly?

The nodes provide network,
all-in-one security

wired directly
to G.D.'s main
computer system

and links to
the D.O.D. In Washington.

Cameras, sensors,
data input and output.

They don't miss a trick.

I'm surprised that
Fargo's okay with these.

In virtual Eureka,
they had a lot
of stuff like this

and it wasn't good.

PanOp might have
saved your friends from
that whole experience.

Wouldn't the Director
do anything
to prevent the loss

of someone
like Dr. Marten?

You have no idea.

What? Is Homeland Security
too busy groping people
to make a phone call?

Hello? Hello?

Well, they were no help,
and now I'll probably
get strip-searched

on every flight for
the rest of my life.

No luck with
DARPA either,

but we still have
other avenues to pursue.

Don't give up hope.
Thanks, Allison,
you're a good friend.

You really think
Holly's in there?

I know she is.

ZANE: Hey, Fargo.

Allison, will you
tell the traitor

that I don't want
to talk to him.

Will you
shut up and listen?

I only volunteered
to break down the machine

so we could
get Holly out.
What?

How?

I built a partition
on the G.D. Mainframe

and transferred
a character file into it.

Is that even possible?
I mean, she's not just
a spreadsheet. And... thanks.

Yeah, well, I had to try.

Damn it,
the partition is empty.

What?

Holly must still be on
the photonic hard drive.

And now Shaw has it.

HENRY: The next item
on the D.O.D. Impound list

is a frictionless
graphene servo.

CARTER:
Right... Which is servo?

Clearly something
I've never seen before.

Hey, what happened
earlier with, um, Shaw?

Shaw is collecting
special projects.

The Z waves
the 22 of you developed

make you
a special project.

And spending
a day as a lab rat...

Yeah, it's better than
spending a lifetime
as one, but come on,

I couldn't move squat.

It's not like
I wave my hand and...
Things happen.

Except that.

(LAUGHS)

Are you seeing this?

Oh, yeah.

Oh.

(ALARM RINGING)

Not responding.

What was that?

Special project, huh?

I have no mechanical
or mathematical reason
for that malfunction.

It had to be you.

Oh, what,
so I got superpowers now?

Not so loud. We don't
want to bring any
premature attention to it.

So this is broken.

I'll go... I'll go...
The poison gas.

Right. Oh, and
I'll run some tests.

Oh, and (WHISPERING)
You might want to keep
your hands in your pockets.

Good safety tip.
Yeah.

I feel safer.
That's good.

Last time
we saw each other,
we had a fight.

Fargo, all couples argue,
even virtual ones.

No, she's real!

I don't think
I realized
how real until now.

Maybe we should just
tell Shaw about Holly.

They're going to find out
about her anyway when
they examine the computer.

You know
what they'll do
if I tell them.

They'll study her.
They'll try to
figure out what she is.

They'll dissect her.

If I don't tell them,

maybe they'll think
she's an M.P.C.
And leave her alone.

I could stand
never seeing her again
if I knew she was safe.

The D.O.D. Has
got our machine

in a secure
loading bay
in Section Four.

They're going to
wipe the hard drive
before they ship it out.

They're going
to erase Holly?

We can't
let that happen.

Do you know a way
past the D.O.D. Guards

on our shiny
new security system?

Oh, well, you didn't
hear it from me,
but there may be a way.

ALLISON ON RADIO:
You should see a junction
a few meters ahead of you.

I'm nearing the junction.

The PanOp system
is ready to go online, sir.

Sorry, habit.

Now you have people
calling you "sir."

They wouldn't dare.

You know what I mean.

Leadership suits you, Jo.
I always thought it would.

You miss it?
Special Forces?

Oh, this place
is plenty special.

Long as it hasn't
dulled your edge.

Like writing memos?

You and Dr. Fargo
will be able to minder
all the notes from here.

So will the D.O.D.

Still seems kind of
Big Brother for G.D.

Did you hear about
the dark matter
pair annihilation

that took out Area 51?
No.

Exactly. Didn't happen,
thanks to PanOp.

This isn't about
spying, this is about
protecting people.

Wow, that is impressive.

You can see, hear,
and detect intrusions,

both physical and digital.

Is that
supposed to happen?
No.

What's the problem?
I don't know.

What the hell is that?

Hit the reset switch.

I'm guessing that isn't
supposed to happen either.

What happened?
Wasn't me.

Something scrambled PanOp.

Whatever it was
saved me a nasty hack,

but the system will
reset in a few minutes.

ALLISON: Fargo,
PanOp is down now,

but we don't know
for how long.

Zane will buy you
as much time as he can.

Affirmative.

Frodo has reached Mordor.

Repeat. Frodo
has reached Mordor.

Fargo, you have to hurry.

FARGO: Access panel stuck,
almost got it.

How do you know about
secret passageways
around G.D. Anyway?

You and Carter been
playing security guard
and sexy cat burglar?

My lips are sealed.
Oh, thank you.

Jo put the two of us
on mutual full disclosure.

Oh, how's that
working for you?

Mmm. Some things
people are better off
not knowing.

(GRUNTS) Got it.

(GRUNTING)

I'm in. (GROANS)

(WHISPERING) Precious...

Where are you,
my precious?

(INDISTINCT WHISPERING)

Hello?

Is someone there?

ALLISON:
Fargo, what's happening?

Um, hearing things,
I guess?

It's kind of
creepy in here.

(YELPING)

(PANTING)

Now it's dark and creepy.

ZANE: What are you
talking about? Get moving.

Oh, found it.

Okay, the drive has
an onboard power cell,

plug it in and
you're good to go.

Port six. Green light
means you got her.

Gotcha.

Are you sure
the flash drive will work?

I don't know.
We haven't fully decoded
Holly's data structure.

I don't understand.

We've never had
a system failure
like this before.

There. We're back up.

Who's that?

Fargo.

Son of a...
PanOp is back online.
Tick-tock, Frodo.

Nothing's happening.
I'm going in.

No, no, Fargo.
No, you don't have time.

Holly?

Holly!

SHAW: Dr. Fargo,
what are you doing here?

You already
wiped the machine.

I'm sorry, Dr. Fargo.

Miss Lupo, would you
please place him
under arrest.

Jo, you arrested Fargo?

I thought
Allison was kidding.

Did she tell you
what he's been doing?

Yes, and I even
understood some of it.

Look, we've got to fix this.

Can you talk to Shaw,
maybe get Zane to do

like a computer
autopsy or something?

Oh, not you, too.

Jo, I live in
a robot house
with a robot deputy.

I think we should find out
what this Holly thing is
before we just dismiss it.

I'm going to be
a little busy figuring out

how to keep Shaw from
pursuing formal charges

or getting us all fired,
starting with Fargo.

Come on, fired?

Come on nothing, okay?
He broke into
an off-limits area

and tampered with
a brand-new security system

in front of the D.O.D.

FARGO: I didn't tamper.

That weird whispering
and those lights...

It wasn't me either.

What does he mean?

Um, I don't know.
We've been getting strange
incident reports all day.

Doors opening and
closing on their own,

machines malfunctioning,
noises.

All over G. D?

So not just where I am?

No, Carter,
not just where you are.

How disappointing.

Um, okay, well,
uh, things started
to go haywire

right when Shaw installed
those security things.

Maybe they're doing it.

Okay, I will look into it,
but he isn't going anywhere.

You want to help Fargo,
finish Shaw's inventory.

(SIGHS)

Yeah.

Jo, listen, about Fargo.

I told you that machine
was bad for him.

And locking him up isn't?

Hey, do you know
how much trouble he's in?

How many protocols
he's violated?

He believes that,
that computer is
his chance to save Holly.

You helped him break in.

Allison, they recovered
Holly's body.

She's gone, and
it's only hurting Fargo
to act like she's not.

We both want
what's best for Fargo.

Well, then maybe
we should
help him let her go.

Ow. So, how's Fargo?

He's all right.

I didn't realize
the lengths he'd go
to keep Holly around.

The computer
preserved her identity

and her consciousness
complete with opinions,

memories, emotions.

I mean, I understand
wanting to protect that.

I mean, you hold on
to what you can, Jack.

Like Grace's research?

Yeah, I mean,
if we can establish
some common ground,

then we can start
to build from there.

Collimating Q-switch.
Right. Gesundheit.

Um, actually,
speaking about
your lab tests,

uh, it turns out
that things have been
creepy all over G.D.

So it's probably not
me and my zeta waves.
(LAUGHING)

Though I am thinking
it's the, um,
spy-ball things.

The PanOp nodes?
Yeah.

Mmm.
Mmm.

But, Jack...

Henry,
I don't see any nodes.

There, uh...
There's not one in here.

Uh-huh.

Go, go, go, go.

(BOTH SCREAMING)

Henry...
I didn't touch anything.

Oh.

These don't look random.

Maybe we are being haunted.

You want to give me
some space, Chief?

With a record like yours,
I shouldn't even be

letting you
touch this machine.

I was pardoned.

You're a felon.

Well, guess we're not
going out for beers.

Any sign of intrusion?

Besides him, no.

But I did find
this weird bit stream

rattling around
in the mainframe.
Where?

It's all over.
It's like a ghost.

It disappears from
one subsystem, and then
it pops up in another.

That's the problem
right there.

I'm deploying
a level-six antivirus

to purge
the G.D. System.

Whatever your ghost is,
PanOp will k*ll it.

AUTOMATED VOICE: System purge
will commence in 30 minutes.

Well, he's fun.

You helped
Allison and Fargo

break into the
loading bay, didn't you?

If you want me
to be honest,

don't ask questions
you don't want
the answers to.

Fargo is
so deep in denial,
it's contagious.

It may be some sort of
partial computer program,

but Allison thinks that
it's an emotional projection,

and Carter has no clue,

and you can't
possibly believe that
that's really Holly.

Jo, it doesn't matter
what any of us think,
just Fargo.

Yeah, but I just want...

I don't know
why you're so hung up
on defining what she is.

Because I've been...

Jo, you might think
you're helping Fargo,
but you're not.

What next, water-boarding?

Let's go talk to Shaw.

About?

I watched my dad struggle
after my mom d*ed.

You know he held it together
for my brothers and me,

but every night
I watched him go through

old photos and home movies,

and he just
couldn't let her go.

I am sorry, Fargo.

I thought
I was helping you.

I know.

I guess I didn't
really didn't make it
that easy on you, did I?

Hey, it's, um...
It's a nice cell.
It's very tidy.

(LAUGHING)

Working at the car wash

What is that music?
I hate this song.

Who doesn't?

Wait, what did
you just say?

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

Lupo. Yeah,
he's right here.

We're on our way.
Come on.

Jo, wait.

Is that possible?
I mean, all the weirdness,

the waving,
the whispering,

that's someone trying
to communicate with us?

Crudely at first, but yeah.

I think
they got the hang of it.

Yeah, see,
just as I thought.

A Z wave signature,
and not just anyone's.

We think we know
what's going on.
Yeah, us, too.

That's Holly's handwriting.

I told you
she's alive!

CARTER:
So Zane's upload worked?
HENRY: It must have.

Holly didn't stay
in the partition

because she's not
a computer program.

She has a mind
of her own.
She's alive.

AUTOMATED VOICE:
System purge will commence
in three minutes.

For three minutes,
anyway.

AUTOMATED VOICE: PanOp
system purge has commenced.

I can't stop the purge,

but I can
track it from here

as it moves through
the PanOp nodes.

When one of
those turns red,

that means the area
has been purged.

If the purge catches Holly,
she's gone for good.

Well, what can we do?
We find Holly.

If we can locate
her signal, Zane can hack
an escape route for her.

The last sighting
was in Section Three.

The isotope centrifuge
went bananas.

Well, we just need to
stay one step ahead of
the purge and Shaw.

All right. I'm on it.

I gotta tell you,
I sort of like
"Bad Allison."

Let's go. I'll go look
for signs of Holly.

Jo, we got to buy
Holly some time.

Jo, you mind telling me
why you released Dr. Fargo?

You have
to stop the purge.

It's affecting
delicate systems.

A level-six antivirus
kills malware, nothing else.

I'm trying to protect G.D.

I am the head of security.
I know how to protect G.D.

Now stop the purge.

Holly's signal is
both neural and digital.

Oh, so she can survive
in the G.D. System

because it supports
all kind of computing,

digital, optical, organic.

So, if we can
download Holly

before the purge
wipes her out,

I think we can build
a memory lattice
to hold her.

If we could
just find her.

Is that you, Holly?

That's my girl.

Node just went red.

Zane, Holly needs
to get out of here, now.

ZANE: Allison,
I'm hacking a path to
send Holly your way.

Zane, now.

Sorry, Holly's
packing a lot of power.

Not every system
can handle her.

Now, Zane!

That's it.

HENRY: Just in time.

I've got her.

Holly's in the
Corrosive Compounds Lab.
Is she safe?

Go by the nodes.

The purge is coming.

It's too fast.
We can't stay ahead of it.

Henry needs more time
to build the memory lattice.

Well, we need
to find a place where
there are no nodes.

Well, Shaw
put them everywhere.

They're all over G.D.

Not everywhere.
The observatory.

ZANE: Okay, we'll get Holly
to the observatory

until you guys
finish the lattice.

Carter, power up the console.
Got it.

Jack, hurry.

Holly's almost there.

Holly's headed
your way, Jack.

Still no node
in the observatory.

Holly?

She's here.

What's going on?
Look, I can't tell you,
but a life is at stake.

Sir.

I'm sorry, Jo,
I gave you an order,
so unless you tell me...

Now, that is one thing
I don't miss about
Special Forces.

Orders.

Now I'm going
to have to detain you.

I know the way.
Let's go, boys.

Jo must have
stopped the purge.

It's safe for
Holly to go back
to the neural lab.

Henry and Fargo
are waiting with
the memory lattice.

That's right.

That's not.

Um, guys,
something is happening.

(BEEPING)

ZANE: It looks like
she's trapped there.

We'll have to bring
the lattice to you.

HENRY: Done. Go.

Come on. Come on.
World's slowest
elevator, come on.

Right, um,
beam containment,
breach imminent.

That's not good.

(GASPS) Wait!

(READING)

She's writing something.
Am I what?

"N..."

Run.

CARTER: Guys?

Holly's signal
must have damaged the
control system before.

Jack, the laser's
about to go critical.

If we don't stop it,
that expl*si*n

will level the top
three floors of G.D.

I vote we stop it.
What do I do?

Lots of buttons,
lots of buttons.

Jack, don't
touch anything.

The smallest
increase in voltage

could set off the breach.

Do you see the
collimating Q-switch?

What does that
look like? I...

I do know
what that looks like.

Uh, Shaw impounded it.
It's not here anymore.

What did it do?

Q-switch would
have let us
shut down the laser.

Lattice in.

It should have
blown by now.

Holly must be
containing the breach.

Thank you, sweetie.

Uh, she's not for long.

Holly, we're ready for you.
Get out of there.

(SCREAMING)

(BOTH GROANING)

Holly...

(SIZZLING)

So sorry, Fargo.

ALLISON: Jack.
Jack, you guys okay?

CARTER: We're okay.

I don't think Holly is.

(SIGHS)

You want
to know the truth?

Prison looks good on you.

And now
my day is complete.

Also, you look about
a thousand times hotter
with your hair down,

and I really don't like
that chili you make,

but I know
it's your dad's recipe,

so I just shut
my mouth on that one.

Now is not
the time, Zane.

All right.
Well, just one last
piece of honesty.

You put your ass
on the line
for Fargo today,

for all of us.

Yeah, well
a lot of good
that did me.

Yeah, well,
this should help.

The D.O.D. Was very
distressed to learn

that the PanOp system
malfunctioned and sent

our sodium laser
into critical overload.

Okay, that's not
quite what happened.

Really? Then why do I have
fully documented forensics

from the G.D. Mainframe
proving that?

Hmm. Look, I agreed
to be honest with you,

not that D.O.D. Asset.

Speak of the devil.

The D.O.D. Says
to take your balls
and go home, Major.

So it says.

Yeah, and let Lupo out.

She received
a commendation
and a pay raise.

Paragraph five.

I got to see about
a PanOp removal,
but be right there.

Thanks.

SHAW: I'll catch you later,
Mr. Donovan.

I wouldn't count on it.

(DOOR OPENING)

So, uh,
what about Fargo?

I think he's a danger
to himself and others,

but his quick thinking
saved lives today

and my report
will reflect that.

Thank you, Major.

I am, however, taking
the photonic plasma
computer with me.

Sounds good.

I was wrong about your
decision making, Jo.

Your friends clearly
have your trust.

I just hope
they all deserve it.

(SIGHS) You pay people
to do that, you know.

You need anything?
Like beer, or a hug?

Yeah, I don't think
anything is going
to help except time.

We were so close.

I'm sorry, Fargo.

Holly stayed
to buy us time.

She sacrificed herself
for us, for me.

If you need us,
we're here.

I hate seeing him like this.

Oh, it's going to take time.

Allison, about
what I said...

No, you just wanted
what was best for Fargo.

We both did.

You ready?
I'm starving.
Yeah.

By the way, Allison,
you look smoking today.

Honest with me, with me.

Right. Yeah.

Carter.
Good night.

Hell of a day, huh?
(LAUGHS) Yeah.

Zane lies to the D.O.D.,

Jo gets locked
in her own cell,

and you are an accessory
to breaking and entering.

Oh, that's nothing.
You went back in time
to save me once.

I'd do it again.

I'm just sorry
I didn't help
Holly and Fargo.

Hey, Jack, just the man
I was looking for.

Hey, sorry I couldn't be
more help with your research.

I guess I don't
have superpowers.

Well, actually, I've learned
quite a lot about Z waves.

Oh, did it get you that
common ground with Grace?

As a matter of fact,
I had a very interesting
conversation with her.

Okay, what's
her perspective?

She reminded me
that Descartes said,

"I think, therefore, I am."

Holly is a unique being,
she thinks, she creates,
remembers and loves.

So, there is something
I'd like to try and
I'm going to need your help.

Okay.

You rebuilt
the memory lattice?
Mmm-hmm.

Wasn't easy,
but for you...

Henry? Henry?

Boo!
(EXCLAIMS) Holly!

Did I scare you?
Holly, you're out
and you're here.

Yeah, and I'm still
a little mad at you.

If you had asked me
about the sodium beacon,

I could have told you
that model is prone
to terminal failover.

But I guess you
figured that out yourself.

Be mad, just promise me,
don't ever leave again.

I don't plan to.

SARAH: That is so romantic.

I'm very excited
to have you here,
Dr. Marten.

We're going to
be best friends.

Sarah, do you mind?

We're kind of having
a moment here.

Sorry, pretend I'm not here.

This is going
to be weird.

Honestly, as long
as I have you,

I don't care.
