[traffic whooshing past]
Hey, Stewart.
Lyndon, what the fuck?
You scared the shit out of me.
Sorry.
How'd you get in?
Did you bust it?
I don't know, maybe.
If I did, I'll buy you a new one.
I can buy you a whole new home if you'd like.
I don't want a new home.
I need to talk to you.
You're not allowed to talk to me.
No one saw me get here. They don't know where I am.
I bought a flight to L.A., left all my hardware
and then hitched back up.
Hitched.
Jesus.
You scared?
You want me to go?
I'm not scared for myself, Lyndon.
What did you want to talk about?
I want you to speak to them.
Or speak to Forest and smooth it out.
Smooth it out?
Get me back into Devs.
I don't think that's happening.
That's my fucking life's work in there.
-Lyndon, you're 19 years old. -No, I can't walk away.
Einstein was 26 when he told usabout relativity.
-You still got a bit of time. -But I have to be there.
I'm the guy who cracked the problem.
On a Many-Worlds principle.
Yes, exactly. And it worked, beautifully.
So what's the implication of that?
He doesn't want Many-Worlds. Just one.
But there is no "just one." That's the point.
If he doesn't like it,
he's got to change the laws of the fucking universe.
He's a tech genius. Those laws are secondary.
He's not a fucking genius, Stewart.
He's an entrepreneur.
And he's crazy.
He's obsessive. He kills people.
And he's trying to resurrect his daughter.
Just fucking ask yourself...
...do you really want somethingas powerful as Devs
in the hands of someone crazy?

We're in a motel.
I didn't know where else to go,so I brought you here.
Y-You brought me to a m-motel?
From the hospital.
You were in a hospital.
They put you there.
The police, a doctor.
The hospital.
You came to get me.
You got me out.
Chivalry.
[scoffs] Yeah.
Thank you.
You were, uh, seriously wasted.
I don't know what they gave you--
some heavy fucking meds--

I brought you some clothes.

Nothing.
I just hurt it while I was getting you out.

Where are we?
Napa.
I would have driven further, but I didn't think
anyone would find us here.
And I wasn't really sure
if the cops would be looking for my car
or where the hell we should be heading.
Holy fucking Christ.
What are we gonna do?
Okay, so I was thinking
maybe now we go to the media.
The press. Something like that.
We're telling them an escaped psychiatric patient
has secret information about a murder conspiracy.
No one's gonna listen, Jamie.
Then we run.
We can't use a credit card.
Jus... We can't buy gas.
We can't use a phone.
Do you have any cash?
Uh, 40 bucks.
Then we aren't gonna be running far.
Do we have enough gas to drive back
into San Francisco?
Yeah.
Then I know where I'm gonna go.
But you don't have to come with me, Jamie.
Seriously?
Yes, I'm serious.
I can do this on my own.
Okay, Lily. Yeah, that's...

Come in.
Can I get you a drink?

I'll take some water.
Okay.
How about you?
Sorry, I don't know your name.
Jamie.
You work for me?
No.
I'm good.
Lily wants to talk.
Right.
Why don't you let me do that.
-I-I came here to talk to him. -If you came

Maybe alone.
FOREST: Yeah.
Come on, Jamie.
We're being thrown out.
It's a nice evening. We'll sit outside.
Don't worry. She'll be fine.
[door opens]
Let's sit down.
What happened to your hand there-- you hurt it?
You fucking kidding me?
Is that supposed to be a joke?
No. Not a joke.
What do you mean?
Your, uh...
attack dog, Kenton,
broke into my apartment,
half-drowned me in my own bathtub
and then bent back my finger until it snapped.
Jesus Christ.
[scoffs] You're telling me you didn't know?
I knew he'd intimidated one of Lily's friends.
I didn't know it was you.
And I didn't know he'd... broken your hand.
Yeah, well...
I'm very sorry.
It's not that I want these things to happen
or intend them to happen.
You just let them happen.
You observe from the sidelines.
Yeah, in a way.
I don't understand why I'm not talking to Forest.
I don't think you can answer my questions.
I can.
Who are you?
Katie.
Not your name.
I work at Amaya.
I'm the chief designer of the Devs system.
You're Forest's girlfriend.
Girlfriend.
Yeah.
I guess I'm his girlfriend.
Not sure the word totally works for me, but...
whatever.
Is there a judgment?
Sleeping with the boss?
He's vulnerable.
Needs someone.
I like it being me.
I don't give a fuck who you're sleeping with.
I have other things on my mind.
Fair enough.
Did you know Sergei?
Your boyfriend.
Did you know him?
We had met.
Briefly.
What happened to him?
You know what happened to him.
I want you to tell me.
On his first day at Devs,
he tried to steal some ofthe source code of the project.
He was caught when he tried to leave.
So they killed him.
They?
They.
Us.
Me.
I'm not trying to evade you.
I want to know who killed him.
Kenton.
If you mean the person who actually did it.
How?
You want to know how he died?
The means of it?
Does it matter?
He didn't burn to death.
No.
Then it was covered up.
Yes.
Made to look like suicide.
Yes.
But you know all this, Lily.
Don't you?
Yes.
Then ask me what you don't know.
What is Devs?
Right.
That.
I've got a feeling
we're gonna be stuck out here a while.
We can sit here in silence if you want.
That's totally cool.
But the time will probably go quicker
if we talk.
Why don't you tell me your story?
You work in tech?
Yeah, web security.
Where?
David Wallace.
Oh, yeah. I know those guys.
Good outfit.
You offense or defense?
Uh, defense.
You look like defense.
And you're a friend of Lily's.
Yeah.
She's had it hardthe last few days, I know that.
[scoffs] Fuck off.
Look, I'll do the small talk if it gets us through
the fucking weirdness of the situation, but...
...saying that Lily's had it hard
the last couple of days...
No, that's too much of an understatement.
I take your point.
It's good you stick up for her.
[short chuckle]
Yeah, Lily's pretty capable of sticking up for herself.
Yeah.
I see that.
Does anything ever happen without a reason?
What are you talking about?
You want to know what happens at Devs.
I'll tell you.
But I need to do it by asking you questions.
I'm not here to play games.
It's not a game.
It's a way of explaining.
-Go with it. -Go with it?
Yes.
Go with it.
Okay?
Okay.
So...
...does anything ever happen without a reason?
Yes.
No.
Things happen without a reason.
-Like? -An example?
Yes.
A kid getting leukemia?
Getting hit by lightning?
It's an endless list.
No, Lily.
I didn't ask if things ever happen
without a good reason.
I said areason.
The leukemia was an aberration in the kid's DNA.
The lightning was a static discharge.
Why did the pen roll across the table?
You pushed it.
Why did I push it?
I'm guessing to make a point.
That's a reason.
It's why the pen rolled across the table.
You blinked.
What?
Why did you just blink?
Your eyes were dry.
Or you were nervous.
Does anything ever happen without a reason?
There must be some events.
Random events.
Name a random event.
Take a moment. Think about it.
And then name one.
A coin flip.
A coin flip is not a random event.
It's a complex event.
How hard was the coin flipped?
What was the weight of the coin?
The air resistance?
The temperature of the room?
The angle it landed on the table?
Okay, not a coin flip.
But some things are random.
Then name one.
-Selection. -Selection of what?
Selecting from things that are all the same.
What things are all the same?
Objects.
Identical copies of a book at a bookstore.
You chose the one beneath the top of the pile
because it had been handled less.
Meteors landing.
Roulette wheels spinning.
Misfortunes suffered.
They can all be unraveled.
You can't name a random event.
Because there are no random events.
You ask... what is Devs?
This is Devs.
This is the only principle you need to understand.
Nothing ever happens without a reason.
Everything was determined by something prior.
That's it.
Now, take a computer.
Give it all the data that can exist
about this pen rolling across the table.
Its trajectory, velocity,
mass of its component parts,
atomic structure.
What can the computer now tell you?
It can tell you how hard the pen was pushed
and it can tell you when the penwill stop rolling.
The computer can see backwards.
The computer can see forwards.
Now do that with everything.
Not just the pen.
Everything.
That's Devs.
Powerful computer you've got there.
It is.
And you killed Sergei for that.
Not exactly, Lily, no.
I think, for you...
this will be where it gets hard.
I guess she really
loved that young man, huh?
Sergei? Really cared about him.
Yeah, she did.
It's an amazing thing, where love'll take you.
The road you'll travel.
The lengths to which you'll go.
You have it in your life?
Uh, had.
Oh.
Well, better to have loved and lost.
[short chuckle]
No?
I'd go with: better to have loved
and everything worked out totally fine.
Okay, yes. Fair point.
Me too.
You know my loss.
Everyone does.
Uh... s-sure.
I don't know yours.
It doesn't compare.
I'm very glad.
Uh, yeah.
It's just the...
just the standard, you know, losing a girl.
Or losing thegirl and...
and the future you thought you had.
Well, then it does compare.
In that respect, at least.
It's about coming to terms with that loss.
I guess.
But in all honesty, I...
I never really did come to terms with it.
You know, me and loss just kind of...
...kind of coexisted.
Loss as your friend and constant companion.
[chuckles] Yeah, type of friend
that takes a dump on your face every morning.
That's the guy.
Can I tell you something, Jamie?
Which is a promise.
Just a straight-up promise, from me to you.
Okay.
It's all gonna work out just fine.
What does that...
what does that mean? What's gonna work out fine?
Everything.
That's the promise.
Everything is gonna work out fine.
The Devs system works.
In fact, it's worked for a few months now.
And it's getting better and more refined all the time.
Even in the last 48 hours,
we've had a significant breakthrough.
On it, on the system...
...we can run predictions.
They get fuzzierthe further we go back in time,
but, basically,
you can pick any point in history
and any adjusted GPS coordinate on the planet,
and we can run visualizations on it.
Visualizations?
Image. Sound.
You mean it's a simulation?
Exactly.
A total simulation.
From the quantum level to the macroscopic.
The past and the future.
The pen rolling backwards.
The pen rolling forwards.
You can look into the past.
We've seen Christ on the cross.
You can look into the future.
We try not to.
It's problematic.
But yes, we can.
We have.
You said, for me,
this'll be where it gets hard.
Yes.
Specifically...
hard for me?
Specifically you, yes.
Why?
When Devs first got up and running...
...we looked into the future.
And found we can only see a few months in advance.
At a certain point,
a fixed point,
the visualization became pure static.
Like a blizzard.
The future was seeable right up to that moment.
And after...
impenetrable.
The point of pure static has grown closer.
It has never extended.
Not even by a minute.
Or a second.
Now, the fixed point
at which the future becomes lost...
is very close.
21 hours.
Tomorrow night?
Tomorrow night.
Just after 1:00 a.m....
...something happens.
An unknown event.
And it triggers a total breakdown
in cause and effect.
A breakdown of determinism,
a breakdown of the literal lawsof the universe.
And we think it involves you.
Me?
How could you possibly think it involves me?
You're there.
Where?
Devs.
I'm at the Devs lab? At Amaya?
Yes.
But...
We've seen you.
You mean I cause the event?
We think so.
What do I do?
We don't know.
But whatever it is,
it's significant.
To say the least. [short chuckle]
I don't understand.
Nobody does.
It's the only sport I could ever play.
Is Frisbee a sport?
Oh, big sport.
You don't watch the Olympics?
What if you're wrong?
Wrong?
You.
Your tech cult.
Wrong?
It's not me making the prediction.
It's a machine.
It's the universe.
It's a machine making the prediction.
What if the machine is wrong?
What happens if I don't go to Devs tomorrow night?
You will.
What do you mean, I will?
I mean exactly that. It's what is going to happen.
You're gonna make me? Your gonna force me to go?
No.
I'm saying it's predetermined.
It's always been predetermined.
You were always going to go to Devs.
-That's ridiculous.-You are not able to stay away.
I could just choose not to go.
I could drive to Mexico.
-No. -Set off right now.
-But you won't. -How the fuck can you tell me
what I will or won't choose to do?
I get it.
What do you get?
You're fucking delusional.
This is bullshit.
Lily, it's not material whether you believe me or not.
It's going to happen.
You're going to be there.
I don't think so.
Well...
I guess we'll see.
We will.
Anything else you need to tell me?
No.
