Krone: hmm?

Gilda: join forces?

Norman: it's fine, you guys.

- No need to worry.

- ( All gasp )

Norman: we'll hear you out.

( Krone chuckles )

Excellent.

It's best if we cooperate

So we can each

Achieve our goals.

You all want

To break out of here,

And I want to eventually

Become mom of this house.

The plan is to drag isabella

From her position

And then seize it for myself.

Don: you wanna be a mom?

Krone: to prove that I mean it,

You kids aren't the only ones

Who wanna break free from this.

Krone: are you aware

Of the management system here?

( All gasp )

Krone: girls who meet

Certain conditions

And live until the age of

Are usually presented

With two different paths when

They're about to be shipped out,

Continue and die

Or aim to become a mom.

Don: what conditions?

Krone: high test scores

And the mom's recommendation.

Meet those two requirements,

And it's possible to survive

Without escaping,

If you're a girl.

Gilda: only girls?

Krone: although,

I don't recommend it.

They make it so you're never

Allowed to leave the premises.

( All gasp )

Emma: what is that?

Krone: there's a chip inside,

And, with it, if you step

One foot outside the farm,

An electric current triggers

And causes your heart to stop.

( All gasp )

Krone: but, at the same time,

If your heart stops

For some other reason,

It acts as a transmitter

That notifies the higher-ups.

Norman: we were right about

Not being able to k*ll them.

( Krone chuckles )

Because of this chip,

I can only live on the farms.

That's why I wanna live

In the best way

This place has to offer.

- ( Emma sighs )

- Krone: even if it's fake,

Being a mom means

You get to feel human,

But, to achieve that,

I have to remove isabella.

If all of you escape, she'll be

The one who's blamed for it.

( Giggles ) trust me,

I won't stop you

If you make a run for it.

It actually benefits me.

Gilda: you won't ship us out?

- Krone: of course not.

- ( Gilda and don gasp )

Krone: so let's cooperate!

( Don groans )

( Emma grunts )

( Norman sighs )

( Krone chuckles )

How about it?

Emma: norman.

Wait a sec.

I wanna make sure of something.

Krone: what is it?

Krone: how can we be sure

You're not gonna

Betray us in the end?

Krone: are you saying

You don't trust me?

Emma: answer!

( Krone scoffs )

All right.

If ray goes

And tattles on me to mom,

You can destroy me.

Meanwhile, if I tell mom that

Ray's acting as a double agent,

Then all of you

Will go down with him.

So, you see,

Neither of us will snitch,

Because we can't.

Do you trust me now?

( Emma sighs )

Yeah, sure.

Krone: I guess

We have a deal, then.

♪

( Chuckles )

I know a lot of info

About this place

That may be helpful

For you to know,

And I'm willing

To share it with you all.

It's proof of my goodwill.

If you're interested,

Why don't you

Drop by my room tonight?

( Children chattering,

Laughing )

Emma: she was one of us,

And yet this is just

So she can have a better life.

What a monster.

She doesn't care

If any of the kids here

Live or die at all.

Gilda: she said

She won't ship us, though.

Norman: what she meant

Was she can't.

If she really

Wanted us to escape,

Then she would have

Quietly helped us.

The only reason

She's showing us her cards

Is to try to gain our trust.

Don: what's the point

In doing that?

Norman: it's all so she can get

Solid evidence of our rebellion.

In other words,

She's in a position

Where the higher-ups

Won't trust her

Unless she has proof.

She doesn't have the power

To ship us out like mom does.

- Gilda: evidence?

- ( Don gasps ) wait.

What happens if she finds

The rope we hid in the tree?!

Norman: it's fine.

Explaining the rope is easy.

We can say we were gonna use it

For a game, but if we--

Ray: if she finds the tools

To break the trackers,

Then we're done for.

Norman: that kind of evidence

Would be hard to explain.

( Don and gilda gasp )

Ray: no need to worry.

I'm not gonna let that happen.

I'm not finished

Making it yet, anyway.

Norman: that won't be an issue

If we can convince her

That we don't know where

They are or how to break them.

I'm sure sister krone

Would believe us

If we play our cards right.

Gilda: you're going to her room?

You're dealing

With sister krone here.

It's nice she offered

To give us information, but--

Don: hang on.

Why are we cooperating with her?

Does it give us an advantage?

Norman: if we

Use her effectively,

We might learn something useful.

Additionally,

It'll keep her out of the way

So we can focus

On the inspection.

( Don sighs )

( Grunts )

( Gilda sighs )

Emma: we'll be fine.

We have to use

Every opportunity that we can!

Krone: hmm?

Norman: we can ask

Whatever we want?

Krone: yes. It can be about

The farm or even headquarters.

( Clock ticking )

- Norman: then...

- Emma: show it to us,

The thing that receives signal

From our trackers.

Krone: ohh.

( Chuckles )

Oh. Of course.

There's not a lot to it,

Is there?

It shows the current location,

But doesn't say who it is.

( Both sigh )

Krone: so you knew that there

Were tracking devices?

Norman: yeah.

We found out from mom,

But we don't know where they are

Or how to destroy them.

Emma: do you know, sister?

Krone: yes.

They're found in your ear.

( Both gasp )

Krone: around here, on the left.

( Both sigh )

Krone: hmm.

I don't really know

How to break them,

But I do know that,

If they're broken,

It notifies

The tracking tool and hq,

♪

You'd either have to take it out

Or just cut that part off.

Norman: how?

There are no sharp blades here.

Krone: there is one, a scalpel.

Norman:

There's no medicine outside,

And I don't

Wanna start our escape

With blood loss or infections.

Krone: the infirmary

Has medicine

And anesthesia you could use,

Tools as well.

Now, the supplies should last

At least five kids.

I can teach you how to use them.

I'll even lend you the key.

Since that's settled,

Anything else?

( Both sigh )

Emma: how old are you, exactly,

And have you

Always been a product?

Krone: mm-mm-mm.

It's pretty rude of you

To ask a lady her age,

But I'm gonna

Let it slide this time.

I'm . I was born and raised

At this house,

Though not here

At plant three, mind you.

Norman: there's more than one?

Krone: and from what

I saw in the records,

It seems isabella's .

Norman: tell me,

Have you seen the outside?

- Krone: not once.

- ( Both gasp )

Krone: oh? Did you think

That I'd lie and say yes?

- I haven't.

- ( Norman sighs )

Krone: but there are

Humans out there.

The higher-ups and us adults

Make all the food

That you kids eat.

However, there are humans

Who bring your clothes

And supplies from outside.

I've seen them

At headquarters once,

And it seemed like they were

All in equal standing

With each other.

What you all need to do

Is get mixed in

With the humans

Who won't get eaten.

( Both sigh )

Emma: so just how long...

Have the demons been around?

Krone: "demons"?

Oh, you must mean them.

Emma: and how did

The world get like this?

If you know.

Krone: I don't.

( Emma gasps )

( Norman sighs )

Emma: where is

This house located?

Krone: no idea.

Norman: what about the security?

Krone: now, that, I know.

There isn't too much.

They rely

On the tracking devices,

So there aren't

Many guards posted.

I doubt they even patrol.

( Emma grunts )

Norman: thank you

For all your help.

Krone: is that it?

Norman: yeah. Have a good night.

( Krone chuckling )

( Both gasp )

( Krone laughing )

So you already knew

Where the trackers were

And how to break them!

I'm actually impressed.

I've learned

A lot of interesting things

- During our talk tonight.

- ( Both gasp )

Krone: info can be provided

Without words.

Humans tend to give away

A lot of information,

Even if they're

Just standing there.

Blinking, gaze,

Sweating, attitude,

Gestures, pupils, and pulse,

They all hint at what

You're really thinking.

What gave it away

Was when I said

The tracking device

Was located in your ear

And neither of you

Even bothered to check.

Then when you found out

How to remove them,

You didn't look

The least bit happy about it.

Ray: hey, mom.

( Camera clicks )

I see.

So nothing shows up here

At first.

Isabella: your last reward

Is a camera, huh?

Ray: I was just curious

About how these things work,

Since I've only

Ever seen photographs

And cameras in books.

If I were greedy, I would have

Wanted to develop them.

Wow. It looks like

You froze a moment in time.

About that other thing,

Can it wait 'til after lunch?

( Sighs )

Let's review.

During the free time

We have after eating lunch,

I'm gonna be distracting mom.

Meanwhile, you two

Will inspect above the wall.

Don and gilda,

Stand outside where you can see

The second-floor window

To the south.

- ( Both gasp )

- Ray: stay alert.

I'll signal to you

If I'm not able distract mom,

And that's when you two

Tell the others

To cancel the inspection.

( Both grunt )

Ray: according

To our original plan,

There are six days left,

But we have the / months

'Til I get shipped out.

So, if things go wrong,

We can bail.

We do everything in secret

And pretend to be controllable.

( Both grunt )

Mark: don!

You should come play with us!

- Naila: gilda, too!

- Don: sure!

- Are you ready to play tag?

Norman: ray, we need to talk.

Ray: what?! Krone found out

That we can break

The tracking devices?

( Both grunt )

Norman: we should

Move up the escape.

How soon can you break them?

Ray: with this, I've got

All the pieces that I need.

I can break them whenever.

( Ray laughs )

Emma: hmm?

Ray: look at your face.

- Emma: hey!

- ( Ray chuckles )

Norman: this is quite

A double-edged sword, isn't it?

Are we going to break

The tracking devices

And escape first, or is krone

Going to find the evidence

And turn us in before we

Have a chance to do that?

( Emma sighs )

Ray: don't worry. I handled it.

( Chuckles )

( Clock ticking )

Krone: hmm. I wonder...

Why did they pretend

Not to know anything?

They knew exactly

Where the devices were

And how to destroy them.

But how did they even

Find out in the first place?

Actually,

How will they break them?

Are they going to use

A specific tool?

Could they have made

Something to do that?

If that's the case,

It could be the evidence I need.

Is that why they were scared

And lied to me?

Well, then, guess it's time

To start searching. ( Chuckles )
