Mr. Robot 1x3

1. I will be the youngest executive this company has ever seen.

2. All right, you know, I'll take it if you leave us alone.

3. Thank you. Check track two out.

4. All right?

5. I will, track two.

6. All right, man.

7. Why didn't you tell me

8. about the DAT file?

9. Worked at Evil Corp

10. his whole life.

11. Then out of the blue,

12. he got fired.

13. No one knew why.

14. He had leukemia. Made me swear to never tell anyone.

15. Finally, I got so worried, told my mom.

16. And when he found out, he got pissed.

17. You ever

18. think you deserved it?

19. I was eight years old.

20. You didn't commit

21. to the sacred pact

22. you had formed.

23. My approach within our business units,

24. is to first invest in new technologies and develop prototypes

25. in order to understand the technology potential.

26. Because despite the recent success of our cybersecurity team,

27. our company currently still has

28. seventy-two potential hacker vulnerabilities

29. in our primary and second... No, wait a second...

30. You stupid piece of shit.

31. Again.

32. Our company currently still has 73 potential hacker vulnerabilities

33. in our primary and secondary data centers.

34. Now is not the time to be encumbered

35. by the company's

36. tragic and shameful loss

37. of our chief tech...

38. Too formal, God damn it!

39. Warm it up,

40. don't be a cold robot.

41. Again!

42. Now is not the time

43. to be encumbered by

44. the company's tragic

45. and shameful loss

46. of our

47. Chief Technology Officer.

48. We have to be swift

49. in naming a replacement CTO.

50. And, sir, I would like

51. to suggest it be me.

52. For the sake

53. of our company

54. that we make our

55. decision today.

56. My promotion...

57. My internal promotion

58. shows not only our

59. confidence as a company,

60. but strength in our boldness

61. to the public.

62. Thank you for your time.

63. You will be the next CTO

64. of this company.

65. You will be the next CTO of this company.

66. You will be the next CTO of this company.

67. You sure you don't want anything? Pellegrino? Tea?

68. Sir, thank you again

69. for seeing me.

70. Tyrell, I'm gonna have

71. to reschedule this.

72. Anwar, set up another time.

73. Sir, it's just that

74. I think that...

75. I get it, I get it.

76. We'll get another meeting

77. on the books right away.

78. We've got a really good CTO candidate

79. the board is very

80. excited about.

81. They're not ready

82. to discuss it yet.

83. We'll loop you in.

84. Just give us a couple

85. of weeks. Hmm?

86. Uh, put Wellick back

87. on the books. Two weeks.

88. Oh, nice tie.

89. Let me guess. Brioni?

90. Great taste, as always.

91. Be well.

92. I'll email your assistant the details.

93. If you could,

94. just email it to me directly.

95. This is too important

96. for me to miss.

97. Mr. Wellick, we're here.

98. Do you think I could have 300 this time?

99. Spoken like

100. a true capitalist.

101. Bad day at the office?

102. No kicking...

103. Argh. Please.

104. Enough. No more.

105. Most coders think debugging software is about fixing a mistake,

106. but that's bullshit.

107. Debugging's actually all about finding the bug.

108. About understanding why the bug was there to begin with.

109. About knowing that its existence was no accident.

110. It came to you to deliver a message,

111. like an unconscious bubble floating to the surface,

112. popping with a revelation you've secretly known all along.

113. I don't know why I'm saying all of this.

114. Maybe it's because

115. I'm pumped up on whatever

116. smack legal drug dealers

117. like Eli Lilly make

118. money off nowadays.

119. But usually it's because

120. there's a sense it's coming.

121. A bug buzzing its way

122. towards me

123. to gum up the works

124. until it forces me

125. to make a call.

126. "Kill me or embrace me."

127. Or maybe I'm just freaking out

128. because I never thought

129. I'd wake up

130. to find these two women

131. staring back at me.

132. Are you awake?

133. I don't know.

134. What are you doing here?

135. We talked,

136. maybe a few hours ago

137. when I first got here.

138. You don't remember?

139. They said I was your

140. emergency contact.

141. Um, all right. Um...

142. You told them to call

143. your psychiatrist.

144. You can't leave until

145. you talk to one.

146. So I'm gonna wait outside.

147. Hey.

148. Do you remember requesting me

149. from the staff?

150. You requested me

151. because the police

152. said that...

153. I got jumped

154. by a bunch of kids.

155. It's not the end of the world.

156. They wanted to do

157. a full drug panel

158. and you refused.

159. May I ask why?

160. Elliot, if we can't have

161. a conversation about this...

162. I've been taking morphine.

163. Why?

164. I don't have a good enough

165. reason to give you.

166. I wish I did, but I don't.

167. Maybe we should

168. consider rehab.

169. I'm not a junkie.

170. Then you'll need

171. to prove it to me.

172. Submit to a bimonthly

173. drug test. Voluntarily.

174. That's the only way

175. that I'll recommend

176. your release.

177. Hospitals,

178. a heavily networked

179. one like this

180. are almost too

181. easy to hack.

182. This is William Highsmith.

183. He's not only the head of the IT department here,

184. he is the IT department.

185. He's also an idiot.

186. Not that I blame him because the people that hire him are also idiots.

187. The poor guy only gets a budget of about 7,000 bucks a year.

188. And he's supposed to protect their network from people like me?

189. He never stood a chance.

190. He uses useless virus scans, dated servers, and security software

191. that runs on Windows 98.

192. It's one of the reasons why I made this place my primary care facility.

193. I can make my health records look like every other obedient zombie out there.

194. Okay. You don't

195. have to worry.

196. I'm not going to do

197. morphine again.

198. That's a nice breakfast.

199. Sorry, credit card system

200. is down.

201. Like I said, the most difficult thing about debugging

202. isn't fixing the bug,

203. it's all about finding the bug.

204. For Evil Corp, Mr. Robot found that bug in me.

205. I was the mistake that led to all of this.

206. I have to ask

207. you one thing.

208. Did you have something

209. to do with Vera

210. getting busted?

211. Shit, Elliot.

212. You said you weren't

213. gonna do anything.

214. He's on murder charges, do you know that?

215. His whole crew bounced. I mean, I...

216. I don't know what

217. I'm gonna do for

218. money now.

219. Just tell me, Elliot.

220. And don't lie.

221. Did you do something?

222. No.

223. Hmm.

224. Hey.

225. Hey.

226. Are you okay?

227. I mean with everything

228. that happened to...

229. I'm fine.

230. What happened

231. to your door?

232. You're not supposed

233. to be here.

234. Okay, I changed the locks for a reason.

235. Mmm.

236. Interesting toy,

237. but you may want to spend a little more scratch if you actually want it to,

238. you know, work.

239. Check it,

240. Jessica Alba says she wants to join fsociety.

241. Jesus, what happened

242. to your face?

243. What's going on?

244. Well, I'm not the princess of social graces,

245. but typically it goes something like,

246. "Hi, this is Darlene..."

247. Stop.

248. You need to leave.

249. Babe, seriously, we have a lot of shit to discuss, so if you wouldn't mind...

250. Get out.

251. I suggest you get a grip.

252. I mean, what was

253. she talking about?

254. I gotta get to work.

255. Work? Are you serious?

256. You can't go to work.

257. You have to call in sick.

258. I have to go.

259. A bug is never just a mistake.

260. It represents something bigger.

261. An error of thinking...

262. Sir!

263. Sir! Sir!

264. that makes you who

265. you are.

266. Sir, you

267. dropped your wallet!

268. Thanks.

269. Sure.

270. Stop! Stop!

271. He stole my purse!

272. That was your wallet?

273. Yes, that was my wallet you just gave him.

274. Stop!

275. He got

276. into my system.

277. And he wants me to put

278. the CD on one of the

279. computers at work.

280. Why does he wanna do that?

281. I don't know, Stella,

282. he didn't give me

283. a full explanation.

284. So, he's got

285. naked pics of me?

286. Is that the only thing you're seriously taking away from this conversation?

287. Hey, babe.

288. Hey.

289. How was your run?

290. Strange.

291. Someone dropped their wallet.

292. And I picked it up

293. to give it to them,

294. but then this...

295. Nothing strange about that, just shows how good of a person you are.

296. Always have been.

297. Almost to a fault.

298. What does that mean?

299. Just that you...

300. You're too good for the world.

301. That's probably

302. why I love you.

303. I'm gonna hop in the shower.

304. I told you I can't talk.

305. You have 100 hours precisely.

306. After that,

307. everything we own

308. will be released.

309. And it's not enough just to focus your attention on the logs.

310. We should also monitor social-media traffic, as well as IRC, Pastebin.

311. And set up scripts

312. to keep going 24/7.

313. We might get lucky,

314. we might get sloppy, make a mistake, you know, catch some...

315. This is the world we live in,

316. people relying on each other's mistakes

317. to manipulate one another, use one another,

318. even relate to one another.

319. The warm, messy circle of humanity.

320. Elliot?

321. I'm inviting you guys,

322. uh, to dinner tonight.

323. Morton's notwithstanding,

324. I cook a mean steak.

325. What? Can't a boss

326. invite his favorite

327. employees to dinner?

328. No, that's cool,

329. but I got plans.

330. Can you guys give us a minute?

331. Yeah.

332. You wanna tell me what's going on?

333. Not really.

334. Well...

335. You're missing work, you come in looking like that,

336. and you expect me

337. not to ask questions?

338. Look, I don't know how much you want me asking about your personal life.

339. But...

340. Not at all, actually.

341. I mean, I don't mean

342. to be rude, just...

343. I'm just being honest.

344. Mr. Robot may have found Evil Corp's bug,

345. but he didn't find mine.

346. That's the only way to protect myself,

347. never show them my source code.

348. Close myself off.

349. Create my cold, perfect maze where no one can ever find me.

350. Elliot! I cannot believe you work here. This place is a shithole!

351. Look, I thought I'd swing by, take you to lunch.

352. Oh, that's nice.

353. I think she likes you, bud.

354. All right, fine,

355. I'll take her.

356. But let the record show, I was trying to be a good wing man.

357. Oh, calm down! Shit.

358. I'm not that into

359. redheads anyway.

360. The whole nation of Ireland makes my dick soft.

361. Leave.

362. Darlene said

363. we need to talk.

364. Leave, now.

365. You're right, probably shouldn't talk here.

366. Let's go to that bar

367. next door.

368. I'm not going anywhere with you.

369. I'm not going anywhere until you do.

370. So, I can hang out here

371. and create a scene,

372. or you can give me

373. five minutes in

374. the bar next door.

375. Either way,

376. I'm gonna have fun.

377. Dealer's choice.

378. Mmm.

379. What? It's an appletini.

380. I should kick your ass.

381. Mmm. If that'll

382. make us square,

383. you have my blessing.

384. Nah, man, I want nothing to do with you. You're a maniac.

385. What can I get for you?

386. Uh, nothing.

387. Uh, you should probably order something. I'd recommend this.

388. Fine.

389. I'll, I'll have a...

390. Appletini.

391. You should it as a compliment, guy, these things are goddamn delicious.

392. I get it, compliments make me uncomfortable, too.

393. You know, I find that

394. hard to believe.

395. Yeah, who am I kidding?

396. I love compliments.

397. $12.

398. I really don't think

399. you enjoyed that.

400. I suggest sipping it...

401. Last chance.

402. What do you want?

403. I'm sorry for what I did.

404. I don't buy it.

405. More importantly,

406. I don't give a shit.

407. Hey, I never wanted

408. to hurt you.

409. People who get violent,

410. get that way because

411. they can't communicate.

412. Your dad...

413. I bet he felt shitty

414. for doing what he did.

415. I'm sure he wanted

416. to apologize, too.

417. Sometimes pushing your kid away is just easier.

418. Don't stay mad at him too long, kiddo.

419. You're leaving?

420. That's what you want, isn't it?

421. What about your plan?

422. Plan?

423. You're the key

424. to the whole thing.

425. Without you,

426. there is no plan.

427. That's it?

428. It's over?

429. You expect me to believe that?

430. See you in another life.

431. Did you hear that?

432. I can't believe it.

433. Is that really happening?

434. fsociety's finally over.

435. The recent glitch in the otherwise neat reality I created over the years,

436. I'll never slip up like that again.

437. I'm gonna be more normal now.

438. Maybe Shayla could even be my girlfriend.

439. I'll go see those stupid Marvel movies with her.

440. I'll join a gym.

441. I'll heart things on Instagram.

442. I'll drink vanilla lattes.

443. I'm gonna lead a bug-free life from now on.

444. Anything to protect my perfect maze.

445. Hey, Gideon.

446. Is that dinner

447. still on for tonight?

448. Um, yeah, sure.

449. Uh, uh, you want...

450. You want to come?

451. Yeah.

452. Great.

453. Can I bring my girlfriend?

454. You have a girlfriend?

455. Well, I haven't asked her yet, but I will.

456. Hopefully she'll say "yes."

457. Uh, yeah, sure.

458. Perfect.

459. Thanks.

460. Was he drinking Starbucks?

461. Are you still trying

462. to rip that CD?

463. Yeah, it's all

464. scratched up.

465. Let's get outta here.

466. My boss invited me

467. to a dinner party

468. at his place tonight.

469. Thought you could come

470. as my girlfriend.

471. What?

472. Are you actually asking me to be your girlfriend right now?

473. Yeah.

474. Anyway, I need you.

475. I'm not good in social

476. situations like that.

477. There is something seriously wrong with you.

478. I'm... I'm not gonna be used anymore.

479. Why don't you ask the girl

480. from this morning, okay?

481. She seems like she might wanna go to some stupid, stuffy dinner party.

482. You don't

483. actually know me.

484. All you know is that I'm...

485. Of course I know Shayla.

486. I hacked her email as soon as she moved in next door.

487. With a simple phishing scam, I owned her password pretty easily.

488. I'm not talking about the stuff you can find online.

489. I'm talking about

490. the real me.

491. Tell me then.

492. No. Forget it.

493. I wanna know.

494. What is this?

495. It's beautiful.

496. I've never seen this before, she must...

497. never posted online. Um, I mean, a lot of 'ems not...

498. They're not done.

499. She's got her own private maze, too.

500. Took a lot of different pieces, um, from different things.

501. From my photographs

502. or drawings. And...

503. Like, there's this one.

504. Um, it's really fucking corny.

505. But it's like...

506. Has everything.

507. The kids and the...

508. Shayla's bug was always elusive to me.

509. Maybe this was it,

510. wanting normalcy, but stuck in the outer fringes.

511. Not knowing how to participate.

512. Just like me.

513. Can I kiss you?

514. Next time, don't ask.

515. It's lame.

516. Bugs usually get a bad rep.

517. But sometimes...

518. Don't let me down, okay?

519. When a bug finally makes itself known,

520. it can be exhilarating.

521. Like you just unlocked something.

522. A grand opportunity waiting to be taken advantage of.

523. Mr. Wellick?

524. Hey.

525. What was

526. your name again?

527. Anwar.

528. I didn't know you came

529. to places like this.

530. I don't.

531. What do you mean?

532. You're here now.

533. I'm here because you are.

534. What? I'm sorry,

535. I don't get it.

536. I think you're beautiful.

537. I wanna take you home.

538. Wait, I thought you were married.

539. Because, after all, a bug's only purpose,

540. its only reason for existence,

541. is to be a mistake that needs fixing.

542. To help you right a wrong.

543. And what feels better than that?

544. So, Elliot,

545. do you think you

546. should introduce us?

547. Oh, um, Shayla,

548. Angela and Ollie.

549. You, uh... You look

550. lovely this evening.

551. What up guys?

552. You just get here?

553. Nice suit.

554. Thanks, dude.

555. What is up with you?

556. You've been

557. fidgeting all night.

558. Maybe we should try the doorbell again.

559. Hey guys!

560. How have you been

561. standing out here?

562. The doorbell is broken. I should have warned you.

563. Come in! I'm Harry, by the way.

564. Angela. Nice to meet you.

565. Nice to meet you.

566. Hey.

567. Always nice to put a face with an employee badge number.

568. Right?

569. Ollie, how long have

570. you guys been together?

571. Uh, two and a half years.

572. Two years.

573. Okay.

574. Elliot, how long have you and Shayla been together?

575. Well, uh...

576. Um, just... Just today.

577. Okay, enough grilling of the guests.

578. Let's check on the real grill, shall we?

579. Elliot, I could use your help.

580. So, I have a confession.

581. I had the sys admins of the data center in Dulles check that server again.

582. Gideon, what did you do?

583. Of course, there was nothing.

584. I have no idea what there was to even be suspicious about.

585. I mean, what possible motivation would you have to do anything?

586. I guess I was just being...

587. Gideon has to let this go.

588. If he comes near this hornet's nest,

589. I'm not sure I can save him from it.

590. I have to kill any suspicion left.

591. You've been nothing, but a hard worker for Allsafe.

592. So,

593. I apologize.

594. After the conversation

595. on the plane,

596. I knew what was at stake.

597. The whole company.

598. I was worried that the DAT file I found wasn't the right one,

599. and I just didn't

600. want to get your hopes up

601. in case I was wrong.

602. That's why I didn't tell you before the meeting.

603. Shit, I'm gonna have to let him hug me, aren't I?

604. You're such a brilliant engineer, Elliot.

605. You should never doubt your skills,

606. no matter how much pressure I put on you.

607. And you certainly don't have to keep anything from me.

608. I care about you.

609. From the Mixed-Up Files

610. of Basil E. Frankweiler.

611. That's where I got

612. the idea, remember?

613. I wanted to be

614. Claudia Kincaid so bad.

615. Even her name was cool.

616. Remember, we thought we were going to the Met,

617. somehow we ended up at the Queens Museum instead.

618. No Google Maps back then.

619. I loved running away with you.

620. Somehow, when you're eight, running away can be fun.

621. The normal life.

622. Smiles, dinner parties,

623. childhood stories.

624. I could get used to this,

625. maybe even like it.

626. What's wrong?

627. Evil Corp's hacking

628. scandal continues

629. with the release of these latest emails.

630. Information stemming from

631. the latest dump reveals

632. that Terry Colby was

633. one of three high-level

634. executives involved

635. in the cover-up

636. of the widely publicized

637. Washington Township

638. Toxic Waste Scandal.

639. If these reports are true,

640. Colby may be facing

641. more indictments.

642. In the ensuing 24 months

643. after the alleged toxic

644. waste leak in 1993,

645. 26 employees died

646. from similar types

647. of leukemia.

648. Evil Corp, however,

649. managed to get the

650. class action lawsuit

651. filed against it by the

652. surviving victims dismissed,

653. claiming there was no direct

654. evidence linking their

655. factories to the diagnoses.

656. Now, these emails

657. indicate that Colby

658. was in fact aware

659. of the dangerous

660. levels of toxicity

661. and kept it a secret,

662. as it quote, "Would not be

663. cost-effective

664. "to retool the current

665. systems in place, even if

666. there are potential lawsuits."

667. End quote.

668. Mr. Colby was

669. unavailable for comment,

670. but his lawyers...

671. My perfect maze

672. crumbling before my eyes.

673. data dump are further proof Colby was set up.

674. But they didn't indicate by whom.

675. There's nothing to hide behind.

676. I didn't think it existed, but there it was, is.

677. Mr. Robot finally found my bug.

678. linking the waste levels in Washington Township to the victim's illnesses.

679. Legal analysts support the claim that there is not enough evidence to...

680. What's going on?

681. That's how my mom,

682. um, and Elliot's dad...

683. I have to go.

684. Well, wait... Wait,

685. let me come with you.

686. No, I'd rather you didn't.

687. Evidence in the Washington Township scandal.

688. Terry Colby remains under investigation

689. for his alleged involvement

690. with the Evil Corp executives

691. because there was no evidence linking the waste dump to leukemia.

692. Evil Corp is dangerous...

693. Don't look so sad.

694. He did this to himself. He gave in. He was a coward.

695. He was weak

696. and pathetic,

697. and, in the end, that's what killed your father.

698. Why are you crying?

699. Don't ask so many questions.

700. I miss him.

701. There's no point to that.

702. But I do.

703. Then you're just as weak as him.

704. You're not sad?

705. Why should I be?

706. It's a beautiful night.

707. The weather is nice.

708. And I'm enjoying my cigarette.

709. The bug forces the software to adapt,

710. evolving something new because of it.

711. Work around it or work through it...

712. No matter what, it changes,

713. it becomes something new,

714. the next version,

715. the inevitable upgrade.

716. You're a strange creature.

717. I'm just a businessman.

718. And that's about as clean as I'm gonna get it.

719. You have to do the rest in the shower.

720. I don't mind

721. being a little dirty.

722. I do.

723. You should join me!

724. Yeah, I'll be there

725. in a minute.

726. Hey.

727. I'm sorry that I ran off like that.

728. Did you talk to him?

729. Nope. He wasn't home.

730. Well, I'm here.

731. I want to talk to you about everything, just not tonight, okay?

732. So, you'd talk to him, but not your own boyfriend?

733. It's different, Ollie.

734. Both of our parents

735. died because...

736. That's how we know each other.

737. I really don't wanna talk

738. about this right now.

739. Well, what if I do?

740. What if you do what?

741. Wanna talk!

742. About...

743. Something.

744. What the hell

745. are you talking about?

746. I have to tell you

747. something.

748. I don't know why you're... You're putting yourself through this,

749. you don't have to keep looking at it.

750. All right? It meant nothing.

751. Okay, I know I sound

752. like a broken record,

753. but I love you,

754. and I wanna be with you.

755. Stop speaking.

756. Just tell me what you need in order for me to fix this,

757. and I'll do it.

758. We need to break up.

759. Angela, come on.

760. What choice

761. did you give me, Ollie?

762. Look, I know I have a problem,

763. Well maybe my problem is...

764. I'm not denying that.

765. I can't be with a guy with your problem.

766. Where's the CD?

767. It's in my...

768. In my bag. Why?

769. He has my bank account, Ollie. And my dad's bank account.

770. How did they...

771. Our accounts are linked

772. because of my student loans. I used your laptop to access it.

773. He has my dad's

774. social security,

775. his credit card numbers,

776. everything.

777. Okay.

778. Okay, that is bad, but I'm... But I'm sure the cops will figure out a way...

779. If we don't do what this guy says and we go to the cops,

780. then he's just gonna sell our information to the highest bidder,

781. and me and my dad are completely screwed.

782. Do you have any idea how difficult it is

783. to come back from

784. massive identity theft

785. like this?

786. What are you saying?

787. Angela? Are you crazy?

788. No. We cannot just infect Allsafe's network because of this.

789. I'll lose my job!

790. And there it is.

791. You'll lose your job too, if that matters.

792. Besides, even if we put the CD in,

793. who says this guy won't just do all of this anyway?

794. Hey. Hey, hey.

795. Come here.

796. Look at me.

797. We are going to figure this out.

798. Okay?

799. You're right.

800. You're right.

801. I'm sorry.

802. I'm just scared.

803. I don't wanna break up with you. I'm sorry that I said that.

804. I love you so much.

805. This is Edmond Dulles.

806. Yeah, hi. This, um,

807. Gideon Goddard

808. at Allsafe Security.

809. I need to talk to Sean Skyler about server CS30 again.

810. Hold please.

811. I'll transfer you.

812. Mmm-hmm.

813. Here's the plan.
