Trophy Wife (2024)

[bunniefuu]

(sombre music)

(thrilling music)

Morning, Sleeping Beauty!

Have you woken up from your dream?

My head.

I feel like I've been asleep for ages.

Easy, take your time.

That injury of yours won't heal itself.

What happened?

Look, just rest.

I'll make you breakfast.

(upbeat music)

Hello, stranger!

I thought you'd never come.

What?

Nothing.

You look good, that's all.

I've got nothing on.

I like that.

(upbeat music)

So tell me.

What?

What did I do?

What happened?

Ava.

No, I wanna know.

This isn't gonna be easy to explain.

I have to tell you something.

I hoped you wouldn't ask.

Three days ago you fell over

and you hit your head

on the pavement outside.

You were knocked out, you

were unresponsive for minutes,

I rushed you to hospital.

I thought you might not make it.

Thankfully they revived you,

and you came back to me.

Do you remember any of this?

No, all I remember was just,

I was getting up just now

and flashes of a dream, that's all.

There's one more thing.

We've had this same conversation

in the last four days in a row.

For some reason you just keep forgetting.

Forgetting what?

For the past four days,

you've asked me the same questions.

[Ava] What same questions?

Why have I got this plaster?

Why am I here?

What did I do?

Again and again.

Look, I spoke to the doctor yesterday,

they said you have a mild form of amnesia.

(chuckles) Amnesia!

Only a mild form,

but they recommended that you stay at home

for a few weeks until it clears.

I'm so sorry, honey.

A few weeks.

Look, they prescribed you some pills.

(sombre music)

Ava, I can't tell you

how much it hurts to know

that the woman I love...

That your memory isn't fully functional.

I feel like I've lost you.

Please just for me, stay home.

I love you, and I won't

let anyone hurt you.

I promise.

Okay.

Look, it's out of time, I've got to go.

When will you be back?

Six or seven-ish.

If there's anything, you call my phone.

I love you.

(upbeat music)

(suspenseful music)

(upbeat music)

Hey!

Sorry, I'm late.

How was your day?

Ah, you don't wanna hear about it.

I might get a promotion one day.

Do you remember,

I was aiming for the promotion

as a Principal Investigator

of the company.

Oh, yeah, yeah, I

remember, you mentioned.

What's for dinner?

It's potatoes and steak.

Oh, you're a star.

It's cold though,

do you want me to heat it up?

Does it matter?

What?

Do you have to lock

the doors to the outside?

It's just for your own safety.

Yeah, but it makes me

feel like a prisoner.

It's actually meant to

have the opposite effect.

Remember the doctor's

saying, you need to rest?

Yeah, I know, but like

not even the staircase?

Okay, the staircase, but no more.

I was doing the odd cleaning today,

and I found the drawings you did.

They're coming back to me.

That's good.

Anything else come to your memory?

Well...

Go on, you could tell me.

Well, I don't remember

the door at the end of

the corridor being locked.

Which door?

You know which one I mean.

What about it?

Well, why is it locked?

All the others ones are open,

I don't remember that one

being closed in the past.

See, this is exactly

why you need to stay here.

What's in that room, Frank?

(suspenseful music)

It's to do with work.

Come on, what's the big secret?

Frank?

Enough!

That's my business.

Do you understand me?

You don't go in that room.

Do you understand me?

(suspenseful music)

Hey, look, I'm sorry.

It's to do with work.

I have sensitive documents in there.

You know my job is sensitive, don't you?

Don't you?

And if lose the position,

we'll lose everything.

My car,

my flat,

my job,

everything we've tried to build together.

I don't want you to get hurt

because I wasn't strong willed enough.

I love you.

Am I forgiven?

(sombre music)

Am I forgiven?

(sombre music)

(upbeat music)

Steady.

I got you something.

Open it.

Try it on.

I'll be right back.

(sombre music)

How do I look?

And God created woman.

(sombre music)

I've been thinking.

About what?

No, no, don't move.

Sorry.

What have you been thinking about?

About what you were

saying the other night?

About what?

What about children?

Come on, I don't have forever,

I'm on a clock.

We don't have forever, we're

not getting any younger.

I wanna have children.

You really don't remember, do you?

Look, we did try,

and we were gonna be great,

but then we had that accident.

What accident?

Our car accident.

But that's all in the past now.

Besides my promotion is coming up.

You can't expect me to support you

and a child on my measly income.

What about, once I'm getting

better, I could find a job,

employment of some sort?

When you get better.

But I remembered this morning,

you didn't need to remind

me again about my accident,

so I'm getting better.

Yeah, true.

That's a start.

And then maybe I could

find something part-time,

and it might be enough

between the two of us

to get a family together.

We could try again.

Look, I do wanna try again,

but right now this is

too much to focus on.

The most important person

in my life right now

is sitting right here.

And when you get better,

and when I get my promotion, then maybe,

maybe we can start thinking

about trying again.

Whether that's your IVF,

adoption, or a surrogate,

either way my focus right now is you.

(sombre music)

Anyway, the portrait is finished.

What do you think?

(sombre music)

It's great.

(sombre music)

(suspenseful music)

(sombre music)

Ava!

Don't close the door on me.

Look at the state of this place!

Where were you going?

I wasn't going anywhere,

I was going down the stairs.

I'll ask you again.

Where the hell would you go?

I wasn't going anywhere.

I'm sick and tired of your sh*t.

Everyday I'm working my f*cking a*s off,

and I come home to this bullshit!

Bullshit!

Come to this bullshit!

Bullshit!

Ava!

Ava, are you okay?

Stay here.

Yeah, I'm fine I think.

(suspenseful music)

Frank!

Frank, Frank!

- What?

- My blood!

My blood is white.

(sombre music)

No, I swear, I know what I saw.

I believe you, but

you've had another fall.

I need to take care of you.

Come on!

(sombre music)

I think it's best if

you lie down for a bit.

I need to pop to the office anyway.

(sombre music)

I'll have Victor come and take

a look at that cut for you.

Victor?

You remember Victor, the doctor?

He'll do a house visit just for you.

I'm not going mad, am I?

No, sweetheart, you're not going mad.

You're just not yourself, that's all.

You're tired, you need to rest.

(sombre music)

I'll be back.

(sombre music)

Everyday I'm working my f*cking a*s off,

and I come home to this bullshit.

Everyday I'm working my f*cking...

Three days ago you fell over

and you hit your head

on the pavement outside.

They revived you.

I rushed you to the hospital.

I come home to this bullshit.

They revived you.

You were knocked out, they revived you.

You came back to me.

You came back to me, came back to me.

(sombre music)

I didn't think you'd

be up after your fall,

you should be resting.

Who is she?

Who is who?

The woman you were with just now.

A friend.

Oh, you looked really friendly together.

- Oh, come on, Ava.

- What?

I can't get out, you don't

want me to have a job,

you don't want me to have a child,

and now I find you

fornicating behind my back

with some office sl*t.

It's not like that.

Then who is she?

I only have eyes for you.

That still doesn't answer

the question, does it?

She's a friend from work.

Oh, so now you hold hands

and laugh like a proper flirt.

Ava, this is beneath

you, listen to yourself.

You're reading into something

that's just not there.

Where were you?

Definitely not at work at this time.

I'm not having an affair!

I'm not having an affair

with every woman that I meet.

This is beneath you, why do you...

Why are you behaving like this?

Like what?

With such jealousy!

Especially since that person

is a friend of yours too.

What do you mean, a friend of mine too?

You've known Rhea for like four years.

You're basically best friends.

You went out together like four weeks ago.

(sombre music)

This is why I need to look out for you.

And for the record, I really

do only have eyes for you.

This will all come back to you one day.

(sombre music)

(door bell ringing)

Hello?

Hello there, Ava, it's Seb.

Mr. Frank rang, I'm here

to check your boiler.

Oh!

Of course, please.

Yeah, come in, please.

Come in.

Gordon Bennett, those stairs

are a nightmare for my kit.

How did you know my name was Ava?

We met before.

Oh, recently?

About six months.

Can't forget a face like yours.

I know, my wife say, I have my moments.

The question is, can you remember me?

Well, kind of.

It's the nose, isn't it?

(Ava chuckles)

(chuckles) Right, so where's the boiler?

Cool, I'll get it.

Can I get you a coffee or tea?

No, no, thank you.

Got an overactive bladder, I'm afraid.

Gotta watch what I drink.

Should I be worried about the boiler?

No, not at all.

Just a standard check-up really.

It's good to see you, again, though, Ava.

Heard you had a fall or something.

(sombre music)

You heard?

Yeah, Mr. Frank said so at the company.

He cares, and I guess he just

wants to keep an eye on you.

Don't we all?

You work at the company too?

Who doesn't work at the company?

We're like rats.

Forget I said that,

they're paying my wages.

But seriously first

electricians, then plumbers.

What next?

Tree surgeons.

What's the world coming to, I'd say.

All right, let's go.

(sombre music)

Well, Mrs. Frank, you look all done.

That was quick.

Wait, let me pay you.

- No, it's fine.

- I don't have...

- What about my card?

- It's all part

of the contract.

Already paid it.

Having said that, you

do look a bit different

from the time I last saw you.

I do?

Yes, beautiful.

You're sweet.

If only my wife said the same.

Goodbye, Mrs. Frank.

- One more thing.

- Yes?

When was the last

time you saw my husband?

About a week ago at

the company headquarters,

he was with...

His name, Dr. Victor and his wife.

What's her name?

Holly.

That's the one.

But if you ask me, she

looked a bit scared.

(sombre music)

How so?

She had a scar on her temple.

And she also looked a bit...

- A bit what?

- I must go.

Wait, now tell me.

Mrs. Frank, have you

ever heard the expression,

"Let sleeping dogs lie"?

(suspenseful music)

Yes.

Yes, I have.

Then I advice you heed it.

Goodbye.

(sombre music)

(seagulls squawking)

(dog barking)

(children yelling)

(door bell ringing)

Ava!

Hi!

You remember me, don't you?

Can I come in?

Sure.

So how have you been?

Fine, yeah, still at the

company all these years.

Can I get you a drink?

A glass of red, if you have one.

(sombre music)

The flat looks lovely,

love the artwork.

So how have you been, Sleeping Beauty?

How's life?

How's the man?

Fine.

Fine as in having a fall

and having a short-term amnesia fine,

or, fine, I don't wanna talk about it?

Fine, I don't wanna talk about it, fine.

Touchy.

Well, thank God you have

medical cover from the company,

otherwise they would have taken

you to the public hospital,

and you might have not made it.

The public sector is a bygone

age, a relic of the past.

All that matters now is the company.

Hmm, they do a lot,

don't they, the company?

Medical cover, plumbing.

There's not much they don't do, even...

What?

Even what?

Ava, do you even know who I am?

Who runs the company?

I'll take that as a no.

Why do you wanna know?

Just curious.

God,

AI.

Who knows these days?

I'm in Human Resources

and even I don't know,

and frankly I don't care.

(sombre music)

It must be hard for you, not remembering.

Then again sometimes not

remembering can be a blessing.

Why would you say, not

remembering is a blessing?

Sometimes the past isn't

how we'd wish it to be.

But you're really, really

lucky, you know that?

I don't feel it like that.

Marriage isn't always perfect.

I'd like to find a man like Frank.

Handsome,

loving,

capable.

Alas, the algorithm hasn't

worked out for me yet.

Genetic Love is just a hype.

Genetic Love?

It's an application, which

scans your genome, epigenetics,

and neural pathways,

comparing you to all other

datasets in the world.

And voila, you have your perfect match.

Love at the click of a button,

but as I said, just hype, I

never found the right man.

Hmm, you'll find one.

Your marriage must be so lovely.

A nice home,

security,

a real man in the house.

I mean, what more could you possibly want?

Hmm.

The last time I saw you,

you were in the hospital,

in a coma after your little fall.

(sombre music)

And now here you are,

it's like nothing happened.

And Frank still loves you,

even after all the heartache

you put him through.

Heartache.

What do you mean?

He thought you were gone,

how I thought you were gone.

You're just so lucky.

Well, this has been super-fun,

but I really should go.

Lovely seeing you again.

Send my love to Frank.

I will.

(sombre music)

(Frank closing the door)

(sombre music)

(suspenseful music)

[Frank] "Dear Victor, thank

you for our meeting last week."

Ava is doing much better.

Weight and eating are normal.

I just hope there isn't a

relapse of her previous fall.

I hope Holly is well.

Thanks for everything.

Things at home have been challenging

these past weeks with Ava,

so hopefully we'll be back to normal soon.

"Kind regards, Frank."

(sombre music)

[Rhea] "Call me Frank."

Forget about Ava.

I want you.

"Call me when it's over,

and f*ck a real woman."

(thrilling music)

There you are.

(sombre music)

(Ava sobbing)

(sombre music)

[Speaker] Ava!

Ava!

Ava!

(sombre music)

(Frank laughing)

(intense pulsating music)

(Frank laughing)

(sombre music)

Hey!

Hey!

How was the day?

You know.

Got up to anything?

I just met a friend for coffee.

Hmm.

That sounds nice.

What are you doing?

A puzzle.

Interesting choice.

Yeah, I thought it was expressive.

Don't you think?

Sure.

Going out again?

Hmm.

I have a squash game,

and I'm going to the office.

(sombre music)

Listen, I was thinking,

when you're better,

maybe we can go out to

the pub or have a picnic,

Does it sound good?

Hmm.

Good.

Enjoy your puzzle.

Enjoy your squash.

[Frank] I will.

(sombre music)

If you could sit up for me, please?

Lean forward.

Breath in.

Breath out.

Breath in.

Breath out.

Breath in,

and breath out.

(sombre music)

You can open wide, say ahh.

Ahhh.

(sombre music)

All looks good.

So thank you for letting me examine you.

I've checked your eyesight,

your hearing, and your reflexes,

and everything seems normal.

Can you tell me a little

bit about the accident?

Well, I don't recall anything actually.

No problems or issues,

I should know about?

My temple did hurt to

begin with, but that's all.

- No allergies?

- No.

Are you eating and drinking okay?

No belly aches or pangs?

No, nothing at all.

Well, your wound is

healed, which is really good.

Has there been any differences

since the accident?

No, all good.

Nothing strange, no sights or sounds?

No, absolutely fine.

She is fine.

- Thank you, Victor.

- You're welcome.

As a token of appreciation,

please come over for dinner tonight,

and bring that lovely

wife of yours, Holly, too.

It'd be great to host you both.

Would love to.

See you at seven.

Perfect.

(sombre music)

[Seb] Mrs. Frank, have you

ever heard the expression,

"Let sleeping dogs lie"?

[Speaker] Then again,

sometimes not remembering...

[Frank] And I come

home to this bullshit.

[Speaker] A blessing.

[Frank] Three days ago you fell over

and hit your head-

You've known Rhea for like four years.

You're basically best friends.

Thankfully, they revived you.

They revived you.

[Speaker] A blessing.

[Frank] And you came back to me.

Ava, are you feeling better?

(upbeat music)

Ava?

Yeah, yeah.

I'm fine, thank you.

More wine?

Thank you.

Great wine, by the way.

You're welcome, Victor.

I'd hoped you'll like it.

So Ava, have you been getting out much?

- Well-

- I think Ava should rest.

She's had a tough time of late.

- Quite right.

- Hmm.

Well, when you're feeling better,

you and I must go on a girls' night out,

and leave these bad boys behind. (laughs)

I love you, darling.

(Victor and Holly kissing)

I love you, sweetheart!

(Frank clinking wine glass)

Ladies and gentlemen,

I'd like to surprise

my wife of three years

with a wedding anniversary cake!

Oh no, please!

(Holly laughing)

Please.

(laughing) You're blessed, of course.

Oh, oh!

Go on, honey, make your

wish, anything you want.

(Ava blowing out anniversary candle)

(upbeat music)

I'm sorry if I stumbled

across an awkward topic earlier

regarding not going out.

Frank's very possessive of you.

He loves you, you know that.

It's understandable.

What do you mean "it's understandable"?

Well, you're an attractive woman.

Oh! (chuckles)

Victor, I think you might

have had a few too many.

It's not the alcohol.

I hate my wife.

What are you talking about?

You just said you loved her minutes ago.

That's just for show.

It's you I want, Ava.

I've missed you since the

last time we saw each other.

What are you talking about?

You don't remember our

last encounter in the car?

I don't know what you're talking about.

You don't remember.

No, I don't.

Maybe I can refresh your memory.

They're just there.

I don't care of them anymore.

Frank doesn't treat you right.

When you're better, we'll be together.

I mean, when you get out of his birdcage.

You deserve so much more.

You've got some much to offer,

and I want to fulfil

that place in your heart.

Stop it!

I can't do that!

Yes, you can.

No, I cannot!

Victor, you're neglecting Frank.

[Victor] Come here, darling.

He's a rascal, isn't he? (chuckles)

Anyway, what was that about?

Oh, just some old story

about Frank and his adventures.

I guess, you don't

remember much, do you?

I do.

Ava, I'm your friend.

You don't have to lie to me.

Anyway, when you're better,

we're gonna be going out

for those c*ck, right?

(Holly chuckles)

A few months ago I had an accident,

and I couldn't remember a

thing for quite some time,

and Victor thought

maybe I was pregnant.

Mm-hmm, but I wasn't.

We're definitely going out

for those drinks. (chuckles)

So you said you had a head accident too?

Yeah, that I had a...

Here, it was here, but it was a bump,

but now it's completely gone.

It's just as well our husbands

are doctors. (chuckles)

Yeah.

Darling, I think it's time

we say goodbye to our guests.

Afraid, so good deeds to be done.

It's been lovely.

- It's been lovely.

- Lovely (mumbles)

I'll see you again soon

for those c*ck.

- Great to see you.

- Thank you.

Thank you.

Great to see you.

- Thank you.

- Ava!

- Thanks for coming.

- Thank you.

(Victor kissing)

Victor!

I'll see you out.

Thank you. (chuckles)

Come on, you.

Did you have a good time?

[Ava] Yeah.

Yeah, I did.

(sombre music)

Frank?

(Frank slapping Ava)

You accused me of have an affair.

What the f*ck was that?

What?

I wasn't doing anything.

I wasn't doing anything,

I wasn't doing anything.

Is that what you got to say for yourself?

I promise I wasn't doing anything.

I stay loyal, committed,

I put a roof over your head,

and this is how you repay me!

You ungrateful sl*t!

(thrilling music)

(Ava sobbing)

Shh, shh-shh!

I'm sorry, sweetheart.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

It's just a scratch, it's just a scratch.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Shh, shh-shh!

(Ava sobbing)

You're fine, you're fine.

(Ava sobbing)

You're fine,

you're fine, you're fine.

(Ava sobbing)

No, no, no, no, no.

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that.

I shouldn't have done that.

You're fine, you're fine.

(Ava sobbing)

(sombre music)

I'm sorry, Ava.

I need this.

(sombre music)

(something falling on the floor)

(suspenseful music)

Frank?

Frank, is that you?

Frank?

(suspenseful music)

What are you doing in my house?

(suspenseful music)

Are you all right?

Can you hear me?

Run, Ava!

Run!

(mobile Bluetooth ringing)

[Holly] Ava, it's me, Holly.

Oh, Holly!

Hi, hope you enjoyed last night?

[Holly] Yes, it was

wonderful, thank you.

It's so good to see

you, to hear from you.

[Holly] Everything well at home?

Yeah, yeah, everything well.

[Holly] Good, good.

Look, Ava, it's not my business,

but I don't know how to say this,

but your husband, Frank, he...

What about Frank?

[Holly] Frank isn't who he says he is.

What do you mean?

What are you talking about?

[Holly] He's a dangerous man, Ava.

You're in great danger.

It won't make sense over the phone.

Can you meet me?

No, Frank won't let me out

the house until I'm better.

[Holly] You are

better, that's the point.

You've always been better.

Well, Frank will know,

somehow he has this

sixth sense or something,

he will just...

Please, Holly, you're my only friend.

[Holly] I can't over the phone.

There is no time, I'll come to your's.

When?

[Holly] In one hour, it's urgent.

Holly, can you just tell

me what is this about?

[Holly] I know my husband was

flirting with you last night.

(sombre music)

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.

[Holly] It's okay,

don't worry about that.

He's done much worse over the years.

I can't tell you anymore.

They might be listening.

Who might be listening?

Who might be listening, Holly?

[Holly] I'll see you.

Holly?

Holly, are you there?

Holly?

(suspenseful music)

(sombre music)

(door bell ringing)

Wait there, I'm coming.

Forgotten my keys.

Did you think I was someone else?

No.

Why are you back so early?

Bad news, you might wanna sit down.

(suspenseful music)

It's Holly,

she was run over by a car, she's dead.

(sombre music)

How?

When did it happened?

This morning.

(sombre music)

That's not possible.

Well, it is possible, and she's dead.

I've just got back from Victor's.

I was trying to console him.

How's Victor?

Strangely elated.

I don't think it's sunk in yet.

He said, he was free.

Free?

How do you mean "free"?

I don't know.

I just passed on our well

wishes for last night's dinner.

I didn't know what else to say.

(sombre music)

Did the company have

anything to do with it?

What?

No!

She ran in front of a

car, this silly woman.

But this doesn't makes

any sense, does it?

And also you said, she was hit by a car,

now you're saying she

ran in front of a car,

like she did it in purpose of...

What difference does it make?

Hit, run, whatever.

She's gone, dead, over!

(sombre music)

This is why I have to look out for you.

It's a big bad world out there.

It's just you and me now.

I'll protect you.

Hmm?

(sombre music)

I'll be in the bedroom.

Yeah, I'll be there in a sec.

[Frank] Don't be long.

(Frank closing the door)

I just need to find a way out of this.

(sombre music)

Frank, there's something

we need to talk about.

I'm leaving you.

You don't give me any freedom.

You've taken advantage of me.

And I'm sorry, but I

can't do this anymore.

(sombre music)

I can't stay here anymore.

So I need you to let me go.

That would never work.

[Frank] Are you coming or not?

(sombre music)

You look smart.

But it's Saturday,

are you going to the office again?

I just have one more thing

to do, then we can rest.

I'll see you at six, Sleeping Beauty?

Sure.

Would you like anything when I'm out?

No.

You is all I want.

A best friend I can f*ck.

To hold me.

To protect me.

To keep me.

(Frank closing the door)

After seven attempts, today

is the day, Experiment Eight.

After breathing and

exhaling were complete,

I've moved onto limb function.

Model Six showed good limb mobility.

But today is the day where

all will be put into practise.

(sombre music)

Initiating DNA sample.

DNA sample complete, moving

onto cerebral mapping.

(suspenseful music)

Wake up, Ava!

(electrifying music)

Ava!

Open your eyes.

Ava, can you hear me?

I can hear you, Frank.

Ava, I'm your husband, Frank.

And you are...?

And I'm your wife, Ava.

What are my rules?

Ava cannot harm Frank,

Ava must obey Frank,

and finally Ava must protect herself.

That's good, that's very good.

No, no, no, no.

That's impossible.

It can't be true.

But it is.

I warned you not to come down here.

Frank!

What is this place?

You're unwell, Ava.

You need to rest.

Frank, what have you done?

Tell me, tell me the truth now.

- The truth?

- Yes, the truth.

So be it.

(sombre music)

You're a robot, an android.

I created you,

my creation,

my Ava.

(sombre music)

No!

That's impossible.

You just saw it with you own eyes.

Oh, no, no, that's not real,

you're not my husband, I'm not your wife.

I've always been your husband,

and you've always been my wife.

(sombre music)

It's always been that way,

even with the previous models.

What previous models?

(sombre music)

The first malfunctioned on day-one,

the second had a glitch with its eye.

I didn't want a spastic for a wife.

The fourth, the conversation was sh*t,

a waste of f*cking air, if you ask me.

And the seventh,

I was almost there.

Why did you get rid of her?

The sex was sh*t,

so I got you bigger t*ts,

increased your sex drive,

made you one a baby.

And look at the results.

I've never f*cked a robot so good.

How could you do that?

You're a robot who gives a f*ck,

nothing more than Boolean

algorithm and code.

Who'd want a baby with you anyway?

- I hate you!

- With your polluted belly

full of wires.

I hate you!

You can't, you're not programmed to.

And in either case,

the truth

as you put it, is that you

are based on my real wife

who died ten years ago.

What?

I made you out of the image

and likeness of my deceased wife.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no.

That can't be true.

You asked for the truth.

Let me go!

Let me go!

I'm real, I have wishes,

I have dreams, memories.

Implants, programmes, I programmed you.

To you I'm God, me.

(Ava sobbing)

(sombre music)

Search those programmes of yours.

Just like you, the real

Ava tried to leave me too.

(thrilling music)

Well, you do remember.

I remember everything now.

(sombre music)

You thought you could

leave me through suicide,

but even in death she'll never leave me.

You are the proof.

Man's dream to bring

someone back from the dead.

It's your fault, it didn't work!

It's your fault you malfunctioned.

Help!

Victor!

Victor?

Do you think Victor is gonna save you?

Yes, he will, he likes me.

I know, he helped me make you,

like his robot wife, Holly.

And she dissatisfied

him, so he corrected her,

just as I'll correct you.

Let me go!

You are not going anywhere.

Down here, this is my world, my rules.

Stay away!

But you belong to me,

you complete me.

Don't you see what an achievement you are?

[Ava] Stay away!

What a prize!

What a trophy wife!

Don't come any closer.

Why get a wife when

you can make your own?

And now it's time for the resurrection.

Ooh!

Yeah!

(thrilling music)

Ooh!

Come on!

Gimme your best shot!

I hate you!

You are a robot.

I could r*pe you, t*rture you,

starve you, no one would care.

(thrilling music)

I hate you!

Hey, get off of me!

(thrilling music)

Come here!

Here!

(Frank slapping Ava)

(thrilling music)

Crying won't make you any better.

You're programmed to love me and only me.

Ah!

(thrilling music)

(Ava sobbing)

It's almost over.

You don't have to do this.

You don't have to, I can change,

I can change, I can

change, and I love you.

That's what the last model said,

and the one before that too.

My ex-wife said that before

she committed suicide.

(Ava sobbing)

Uh-huh!

The truth is, you'll

never leave me, never.

Huh!

(music playing in the record player)

Ahhh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

(thrilling music)

(Frank mumbles)

Ah!

Ah!

(thrilling music)

Ooh!

You f*cking b*tch, you stabbed me!

No!

Wait!

Wait, (mumbles)

If you k*ll me, it's m*rder.

You're just a robot,

you're just a woman.

Oh, wait!

You can't k*ll me, those are the rules.

I've changed the rules.

(Frank electrified and whimpering)

(thrilling music)

(sombre music)

(seagulls squawking)

(upbeat music)

What do I tell people?

I say, I'm me.

I'm Ava.

(sombre music)

I'm on my own now.

You didn't stop me.

You never did

because you never could.

I say, I'm free.

I'm me.

I'm Ava.
