Eve (2015) s01e04 Episode Script

I found a strong signal and couldn't hack in.
- Is this to do with you? - Negative.
Tedaco L Seven.
A nuclear reactor.
Eve, did you do this? - 'Uploading Protocol Zero.
' We've thrown everything we've got at the Tedaco breach.
I've had all my top people on the job but they've come up blank.
So I thought I'd try you.
Thanks! We were locked out of sector L Seven for half an hour.
Our largest nuclear reactor was completely under the control of whoever.
They could've triggered a core meltdown.
Don't even talk about it! Our share prices would never recover.
Find out who did this.
How they did it.
And why.
Phew Go away, Abe.
Hey, Sis.
Not now, Abe.
"Eve nuclear weapon"?! What do you want? Dad's got his hernia operation tomorrow.
I know, butyou don't need to worry, he's going to be all right.
Oh, sure he will.
But what about me? I've got to deliver papers to the whole estate by the end of the week.
So? So, Dad usually delivers them for me.
But Mum says he has to rest up.
Can you help me, Sis? You want me to help you with your after-school job because Dad can't? Ah, there's a reason they call you the family genius.
Get - and we both know where this sentence is going but I'm extending it for emphasis - out.
You do know you're being mega-paranoid about Eve, right? She's a super-advanced robot with powers unknown to human science.
Who knows what she's capable of? I broke it.
It's all right, it's just a bubble.
But I liked it and now it's gone.
Where did it go? It's fine.
I can make some more, look.
How does it work? Here, you have a go.
What do I do? You just - Oh.
Yeah, I forgot, you don't breathe.
I do not require oxygen but I wanted to make bubbles.
Try this.
Beautiful.
OK, watch and learn.
Check for dogs.
Approach house.
Locate letterbox.
Lift flap.
Insert newspaper.
Think you're up to the job? I will try.
OK.
Show me what you've got.
Nice.
Don't rush it.
Ease it through.
Perfect.
And that's training complete.
Congratulations, partner.
Deliver these to the whole estate.
If you run out, come back and get some more.
See you later, partner.
Yes! Look, I know Eve can be, you know, unpredictable, but she's not dangerous.
Will, look at this.
- 'Calimov Systems, who own and maintain 'Tedaco nuclear power station, 'have appealed for calm 'after an unknown hacker managed to seize control - 'of the reactor core' - Last night, Eve hacked into a power station.
She just took control of the reactor core.
- '.
.
Calimov maintain' - What makes you think it was Eve? The message I found yesterday.
Remember? It definitely came from Eve.
And she denied sending it.
Well, maybe because she didn't.
Why can't you just trust her? Because we know nothing about her.
Well, you might not, but I do.
Nobody should be able to hack into the Tedaco system.
Mary Douglas herself designed it.
Have you still not managed to find her yet? I keep sending messages, butnothing.
We have to find out what Eve's capable of.
You really think she did this? No, of course not.
It's just Lily's being paranoid.
But we've got a load of questions for Mary anyway, right? I have delivered a newspaper to every house on the estate.
Nice one.
What should I do now? Are there more papers to deliver? No.
But there could be.
You don't get tired.
You could work all night! We could expand the business.
This could be massive.
I've got to make some phone calls.
Stay here.
"Human waste and greed are destroying the planet.
"The polar icecaps are shrinking, so are the rainforests.
"Ways to save the world - switch it off.
" Eve, what did you do that for? To save the world.
Save the world? From what? Global warming.
Flooding.
Ice ages.
The long-term disastrous effects of climate change.
Oh that.
We can all help to save the world by using LESS power.
Right Er, Eve Tedaco L Seven, does it mean anything to you? Does it? I have no record of Tedaco L Seven in my databanks.
- Protocol Zero activated.
All other instructions and protocols subject to system override.
Execute Protocol Zero.
Eve? What are you doing in my room? - Initiating system override.
Eve? Protocol Zero executed.
Will? Argh! Will, are you OK? No, I'm not.
The shower's freezing.
Why did you switch the heater off? I didn't.
Did you unplug my alarm clock? No.
Eve.
It was really scary.
Her eyes were all like scrolling through computer code.
And she said something about Protocol Zero and a system override.
Wh-What does that mean? I don't know.
Ask her.
Oh, Eve.
Lily said you was in her room last night.
Was I? Yeah.
You were acting all messed up and talking about Protocol Zero.
What is Protocol Zero? I don't know, you're the one that said it.
Like this.
- Protocol Zero executed.
My database has no record of these events.
Are you calling me a liar? No, but But what? But Are you sure you wasn't dreaming, Lily? I know when I'm dreaming and when I'm not.
All right, you just We need to sort this cos I don't want to have to choose between you both.
YYou know what I mean, don't you? Yeah, I do.
I'll go then.
Oh Will? Oh, Dad.
Yeah, sorry, it's just me.
Um, so II just wanted to say that they've confirmed my appointment and, um well, I'm off to the hospital now.
OK.
See you later.
Lils, I don't suppose there's any chance of a hug? Dad, it's just a hernia operation.
It's not like you're going to die or anything.
Yeah.
You know, I have heard that some daughters like to give their dads hugs.
And even if they're not dying.
Huh You are so needy.
I'll hug you at the hospital, OK? Are you coming with me? I've got nothing better to do.
What if those things did happen andyour memory didn't record it? It is impossible for me to forget anything.
But what if something went wrong? My entire system would have to malfunction simultaneously.
So, it could have happened then? Eve? - Initiating system override.
Eve, what are you doing? Override activated.
Eve? Eve! Eve, stop! It's me.
Where are you going? What are you doing? Protocol Zero active.
All other protocols suspended.
But don't go in there, it's a substation.
It controls the power for the whole estate.
Argh! Execute Protocol Zero.
- Eve! Wh-What was that?! You did something to the substation.
- What? I need to get you out of here now! Doctor Calvin speaking.
- 'There's been a power outage.
' - What? How could that happen?! - What's wrong? Why are you so upset? The power's out all over town.
Somehow you did this.
But I have no record of I saw you.
All my actions are recorded and backed up.
Not this one.
It's this Protocol Zero thing.
It makes you do things and then you forget them.
You're being worked by a remote control.
Like a machine? Yeah.
Like a machine.
All this because of interference at one substation? - No, that's impossible.
- Thank you, yes! There are too many impossible things happening to this company.
Have you found anything on the Tedaco breach yet? Well, I've isolated the vulnerability - that the hacker targeted.
- Good.
Now find the source.
Someone is running a targeted campaign of sabotage against us.
And we have to stop her.
Oh looks like they might be ready for you.
Right, then.
- Can I have that hug now? - Yeah.
And don't worry, Dad, I've looked it up online.
- The chances of fatality are less - I don'tI don't want to know.
You'll be OK, Dad.
- Promise? - I promise.
You total and utter wimp.
- Thank you.
Oh, sorry, I know phones aren't allowed in here.
- Here goes.
- OK.
Lily, it's me.
You were right about Protocol Zero.
There's something wrong with Eve.
She's just caused a massive power cut at the Yet more stock for many, many clients.
Call me back.
Abe, where's Lily? Hospital.
Dad's operation today.
- But the power's out all over town.
- Not at the hospital.
I suppose they've got an emergency generator.
Well, if you see her, can you tell her I'm sorry and I really need to talk to her.
Are you OK, Robogirl? Eve, no! Stop that.
- Initiating system override.
- What's wrong with her? - She's doing it again.
Eve! Override initiated.
Eve! - Where'd she go? - She heard us talking.
The generator! She's heading for the hospital.
- I need to borrow your bike.
- Well, if you're going to rent it from Abe Watson Delivery Solutions, I can do you a deal for - Hey! - I'm sorry, it's an emergency.
Emergency rates are double! Have you found her yet? You mean the hacker? You know who I mean.
There's only one person good enough to hack our system.
The person who designed it - Mary Douglas.
Mary? Why would she do that? Revenge.
- To get at me.
- No.
I know her, she would never put lives at risk.
Grow up, Nick.
This is war - she'll do whatever it takes.
'Lily, it's me.
You were right about Protocol Zero.
'Therethere's something wrong with Eve.
' Eve? - Analysing energy consumption.
Energy consumption unacceptable.
Preparing to remove power from hospital.
No, Eve, please don't do this.
Look, my dad's in surgery.
If you mess with the power, it could Connection point located.
Eve! Eve! Eve! Eve! - Connection with source established.
Protocol Zero executed.
Eve, stop! Generator shutdown sequence initiated.
Eve! Lily.
Lily.
Are you all right? - Shutdown complete in ten, nine, eight Eve, don't do this.
Eve.
Shutdown in seven, six, five Eve, look at me.
This is a hospital.
There are people on life support.
If you shut down this generator, they'll die.
Four She doesn't understand.
.
.
three, two Remember them bubbles? You said they were beautiful.
You didn't mean to break 'em but you did.
And now they're gone forever.
You can never get them back.
Well, that happens to people, too.
They'll be gone forever.
Lily won't have a dad any more.
- Do you want that? - No! Well, then stop this.
You're the only one who can.
One.
Look at this.
What am I supposed to be looking at, exactly? Here and here.
Those are readouts from before the security breach.
There was a series of disastrous malfunctions in the core cooling mechanism.
- And they went completely undetected by our systems.
- Yes.
Whoever hacked into the reactor core managed to avert a major catastrophe.
She must have shut herself down to protect the hospital.
I know.
We need to get her out of here.
So our mysterious hacker is some sort of guardian angel? You've got the report, you can see for yourself.
Finally.
I have to go home.
Myniece has been taken ill.
Will.
Will! Eve! - Will.
- Are you OK? I don't know.
I don't understand what's been happening to me.
Whoa! Mary.
You got my message.
Where are you? I can't talk for long, but I need to tell you that I have been sending regular upgrades to Eve ever since she first came online.
And has she known about this? No.
Well, it messed up her memory.
I meant well.
Protocol Zero was a new primary directive I created to protect planet Earth.
But I miscalculated.
The installation was faulty.
It won't happen again.
MaMary? I'm sorry, I can't stay on this channel any longer without being detected.
Look after her for me.
Please.
Mary? Who was that woman? Um Your mother.
- Hey, Mr C.
- Er, where do you think you're going? Er, just going up to hang out with Eve and Will.
Not until you've sorted this lot out.
What? Eve was supposed to deliver this.
It's not my fault she went all Protocol Zero on me.
Well, that is the downside of being the boss.
The buck stops with you.
Off you go.
Unbelievable.
- Lily - If you apologise one more time - But she could have killed you.
- Well, she didn't.
And she did save the hospital.
- From herself.
- Still counts.
You know what, you were right.
We have no idea what she's capable of.
We don't know anything about her.
'You're not my father, Nick.
'You can't tell me what I can and can't do.
'From now on, I do what I want when I want.
' What am I, Nick? What am I?! If Mary was building Eve for the military, she could be some sort of weapon.
I expect results.
