Eve (2015) s01e06 Episode Script

Things That Go Beep in the Night

You learn and grow - just like humans do.
Looks like she took the military state-of-the-art quantum chip but failed to honour her side of the deal.
I guess it's just still a shock that Mary was involved with the military.
The chip - it's inside Eve.
I expect results, Dr Calvin.
Find that chip.
- Hey, guys.
- Um, so - .
.
what do you think of our costumes? - What costumes? Oh, ha-ha.
You're just cranky cos you're missing out on the coolest party of the year.
What is your costume? The only people that go to these parties are losers, desperate to be popular.
- Mm? - Like I care.
- Voice check, Eve.
- 'Like I care.
' Voice stress analysis indicates this is not a true statement.
Well, you might want to run a system check, cos I wouldn't go to that lame Halloween party, even if you paid me.
Yeah, cos it would be so much more fun baby-sitting your brother's party.
.
.
Where my mum is paying me triple my normal rate.
- It's not enough.
- Check complete.
All my systems are operating within acceptable parameters.
Aren't you worried robo-witch over here's going to get found out? Nah, she'll be totally safe - and it's Halloween.
- Everyone acts a bit strange, don't they? Have fun.
Oh, sorry.
Dad, you scared me half to death.
Er, happy Halloween! Um, is Halloween supposed to be happy? Er, yeah, probably not.
- Um I set up the table for the trick-or-treaters.
- Oh, great.
Er, I thought we'd start with "pass the pumpkin", then play "pin the tail on the black cat", followed by Er, Dad, you see, the thing is, I'm I'm going out later.
- What? - Er, to Lorna's party.
I told you about it last week.
But wewe agreed we'd do Halloween together for once, like we used to with Mum.
Yeah, well, we can do that when we get back.
Whoa, what do you mean "we"? You weren't planning on taking Eve, were you? - Sure.
Why not? - Oh, I don't know, Will - maybe because she's a highly classified robot I stole from work? And if she weirds out at a teenage party, I'll end up in jail.
Look, it's fine.
It's all about blending in - and Eve can blend in.
She'll be with me the whole time.
All right, trust me, it'll be OK Fire detected.
Extinguishing flame.
Whoa.
Yeah, I think that proves my point.
- You're not going to the party.
- Come on, Dad, she's just - Ooh, the tech specs.
- What? Nothing.
Um, I Forgotten to do something at work.
Um, I'll be back in half an hour.
Don't go to the party.
Mmm, yum.
Ha.
Oh, yummy No.
So, when's everybody turning up? They're not.
- No-one's coming.
- Abe you poor thing.
I can't believe they all turned you down.
I didn't invite anyone.
You what? I just told mum I was having a party so I could get some more treats.
You're really twisted.
Fizz Bomb? 'Failing to lock onto the signal.
Over.
' Thank you, Alpha Team.
Copying that.
I'm switching to a new satellite, to see if we can boost the signal.
- 'Roger.
Will await further instructions.
' - Er, what signal? What are you doing back here? I forgot to, er include the technical specs for the drone chip in the report.
That should have been done three hours ago.
Sowhat are you tracking? What would you say if I told you I'd worked out a way to track the electronic signature of the chip? You think you've got a lock on Project Eternity? How? The military include a binary serial code in the firmware of each chip.
It's only a faint signal, but it's a start.
You're using satellites to triangulate the position.
It looks like Mary stashed her beloved Project Eternity right here.
And it won't be long before we have the exact address.
I've got a search team on the ground, pinpointing the signal.
I think I've got a program on my lab computer that could help boost the signal.
Well, what are you waiting for? Are we having a party now? Depends what you think counts as a party.
A party is a gathering of people, - designed to socialise and take part in recreational - Fun.
Does this look fun to you? I could set fire to some other vegetables, if you like? No, that's not what I just wanted to go to a proper party tonight, with people and and music and stuff happening.
- What stuff? - Just stuff What people will be talking about for weeks and telling me, "what a great party I missed".
The instruction was for me to stay here.
You can go.
I can't leave you behind.
It's not what friends do.
And I wanted you to see what a real party was like.
You could take photos and show me when you get back.
No way.
You know what? We are going to this party and we're going to prove to my dad that you can handle it.
Come on.
'Hello.
Nick and Will aren't in right now.
' Will, pick up.
Pick up! 'Katherine is tracking a chip in Eve.
'You have to power her down, right now.
' Is this environment safe? I'm detecting dangerous levels of overcrowding.
Excellent.
Just act normal, all right? Right, come on.
Don't answer it, don't answer it.
- Why not? - It'll be trick-or-treaters.
I'm not sharing my stash with anyone.
Don't be so mean, Abe.
I'm answering the door.
And trust me, your teeth will thank me for it.
It's Gretchen Smith.
There is no way she's getting anything off me.
Ex-girlfriend? Girlfriend? Don't make me sick.
Is work getting in the way of your social life? Er, sorry, just a bit distracted by home.
I can't find that file anywhere.
But why don't I try reprogramming the satellites? We don't need to.
I tweaked the vector look-up table and it's working.
The chip is somewhere on the east side of town.
OK, look, about Project Eternity We've got it! Isn't that near your home? Yes, it'sa few streets away.
What were you going to say about Project Eternity? Oh, um, just that if .
.
on the off-chance Mary is there, the team should know who they're looking for.
Alpha Team, move to that location.
I'm sending a file on a person who may be in possession of the chip.
'Roger.
Moving to new co-ordinates.
' You know, this party's wild! My sensors are warning the music is loud enough to permanently damage your eardrums.
Awesome.
Come on, let's get a drink.
'In position at target co-ordinates.
'Sending video feed via link.
Over.
' Yes and I have to say, that's not quite what I was expecting.
Is Mary a big party animal? Of course not.
This can't be the right place.
It must be a data error.
Eve? Alpha Team, stand by for further instructions.
'Roger.
Standing by.
' Run a search.
I want to know everything about the owners of that house.
Eve? Eve! 'Lily, I can't find Eve anywhere.
' Will, look, you're going to have to shout.
'No, I've beenI've been looking everywhere and I can't find her.
' - Go outside.
- 'I can't find her anywhere!' - Will? - 'Hello?' - Will? What's up? Will's lost Eve at that stupid party.
It's a party, she'll turn up.
And Will's there - what could possibly go wrong? It's a pretty wild party, huh? I wouldn't know.
This is my first.
Get out of here.
Hey, don't be like that.
I was only joking.
Should I laugh now? OK, I deserved that one.
Let's start again.
I'm Zac.
- Ah! Eve? - Come on, zombie boy.
- What? - You're coming with us.
- No, I've got to I've got to find my friend.
Ah! Mum works in a local supermarket.
Dad's an estate agent.
Daughter's a typical twittering teen.
It's a normal family.
What are they doing with Grade-A military hardware? There must be a link between them and Mary.
We should sit tight until we know what it is.
No, we strike while the iron's hot.
Alpha Team, get ready to go in.
What if they're not the normal family? What if they're a cover for something else? I mean, it could be corporate, could be government, could be dangerous.
I'll make a few calls.
Give me a moment.
Come on, come on, come on.
Come on.
I've got to go find my friend.
Eve! Eve! William Clarke, there is a search squad outside getting ready to storm the party.
You need to hide Eve - power her down, right now! So, er where in America are you from? I'm not from America, only my accent is.
You pick it up from your mum and dad? I was programmed to be American.
Yeah, parents never let us make our own choices.
- Excuse me.
Yes, I'm here.
OK.
I have to go find someone.
Talk to you later.
I thought you were supposed to be lost? I don't understand.
Please rephrase.
Where's Will? Come on, let's find him.
His phone keeps going straight to voicemail.
Let's see if he's in the kitchen.
No.
I must talk to Zac again.
Who's Zac? That's him.
He thought I was a real girl.
Do you think I should go over and talk to him again? He's finished his call.
Don't be too keen, or he might, you know, get the wrong idea.
Act like you don't like him.
I think it's a mistake, going in.
My contact says they're clean.
They're not government agents, they're just suburban sofa rats.
Then what are they doing with stolen military hardware? I don't know.
But there's one way to find out.
Alpha Teamget ready.
'Roger, standing by.
Continuing surveillance and ready to go.
'Awaiting green for go.
' We don't know what Mary did to that chip.
She could've made it explosive, as a fail-safe.
If we go charging in, we could set it off.
It's a risk I'm willing to take.
How can you say that? There's kids in there! Alpha Team - Hold.
- 'Roger.
Holding position.
' I think you made the right decision.
We can track the chip later, when the kids are gone.
I think we need a Plan B.
Got to go find my friend.
- Alien! Lily, Lily! I can't find Eve anywhere.
She's over there.
Right, OK, this isn't awkward! Look, I'm going to leave now, before my eardrums burst.
Don't let Eve do anything stupid.
What was that for? - Ooh! Eve, we're leaving now.
Sorry.
- What did he do? - What did he do? I didn't do anything! Something wrong with that girl.
- Party! What's wrong? I did what you said.
We don't have to talk about that right now.
- What did you say to her? - Nothing.
We just got our wires crossed about how to deal with boys.
You told her to hit him? She told me to act like I didn't like him.
Oh - that's great advice, well done! Should I go back and hit him again? - No! I don't think I'll ever understand humans.
I'm armed and dangerous.
Don't even think about it, or I'll chop you down with my Argh! I'm coming, I'm coming.
Don't go.
Gretchen Smith! Great costume.
Why didn't I think to dress up as a sofa? - No, don't go.
- You what? I, er, just wondered if you fancied watching a movie? What are we going to do? If we leave now, they'll all be talking about Eve.
They already are.
I am "#crazygirl"! Time to go.
No.
We have to patch things up with Zac.
Will, call me the second you get this message.
I promise I'm not mad at you for ignoring my explicit instructions not to take Eve to the party.
I'm sure you had your reasons - which I very much look forward to hearing - but we have to act fast.
Call me! OK, you know what you're doing? Whoa, you're in big trouble with your dad.
Tell me about it.
'Eve, can you hear me?' 'Connection established.
Yes, I can hear you.
' Right, just go over and talk to him.
'And smile, so he knows you're not going to hit him again.
' Didn't expect to see you again.
I'm sorry I hit you.
What was that all about? Say you misheard him - and you thought he insulted you.
I couldn't hear you properly over the music.
I thought you insulted me.
Do I look like the kind of person who goes around insulting people? 'It's your fault.
You've had bad experiences with people before.
' It's my fault.
I've had some bad experiences with a boy before.
Oh.
Well, that makes sense.
Sounds like an idiot.
'Just say, he's one mistake you won't be making again.
' He's a mistake I won't be making again.
We're not all the same, you know.
Some of us are different.
I'm starting to learn that.
You ever think about taking up boxing? That's quite a right hook you've got there.
'Er, you're hanging up your gloves.
'And you're sorry you hurt him, then get out of there.
' Do you think you could still be my friend? Sure.
I could use a friend right now.
Let's start over.
Hi, I'm Eve.
Hi, Eve, I'm Zac.
It's nice to meet you - again.
Careful.
You want to dance? 'Slow down, Eve - you don't want to blow it.
' Count me in.
But I still have to find my, erfriend.
So don't go anywhere, OK? Be right back.
Mission accomplished.
Now, let's get out of here.
OK.
You call your dad, I'll go get Eve.
'Katherine is tracking a chip in Eve.
'You have to power her down, right now.
' Look, it's getting closer.
It won't be long before it's in the exact position.
I think we're wasting our time.
We need to be realistic.
Even if the triangulation works, we can't use Alpha Team.
We just don't have eyes in the house.
Time for Plan B.
Alpha One, what's your position? Finished the sweep of the ground floor.
Nothing to report yet.
I'm continuing the search upstairs.
'I'll send you the co-ordinates, ASAP.
' Would you like me to help you find your friend? - Then we can dance.
- Er Sure, why not? Please.
Look, Katherine, we need to wait.
We don't know what we're dealing with here.
No, we're doing this now! Is your friend also from Cuba? No - and how do you know where I'm from? You pronounce your consonants the same way as Cuban Spanish.
Wow, you're good.
Most people don't notice.
I came over to study and I don't get home much.
Do you miss your family? I, er I try not to think about it.
'There is a search squad outside, getting ready to storm the party.
'You need to hide Eve, power her down, right now!' Where is she? Don't panic.
She can't have gone far.
Calimov Systems are tracking the chip in her.
We have to shut her down, now.
I would like to go to Cuba and meet your family.
Well, then, I'll have to take you one day.
Excuse me.
- Yeah, go ahead.
- 'It's triangulated the position.
' It's in one of the upstairs bedrooms.
I'm upstairs.
Could you not be more exact? It's like looking for a needle in a haystack here.
Once you have the co-ordinates, they are accurate to within two feet.
You'll know what your "needle" is then.
OK, I'm patching them through now.
Let's go upstairs.
Why do we always have to do things your way? Because I'm the boss! Is that right? 'Hello, Katherine, I can't hear you.
' 'Hello? Hello?' Hello? Hello, Katherine, I can't hear you.
Give mea minute.
Eve? Get this computer back online, now! But why would someone want to hurt me? You said parties are where fun occurs.
Eve, we don't have the time.
What can you see? The system's not up yet.
It would help if I knew what I was looking for.
But I need to say goodbye to Zac.
We need to switch you off.
The system's coming back.
There's only one bedroom left.
Well, what are you waiting for? Just looking for my friend.
OK, we're in.
Where's it gone? Where's the chip?! We've lost the signal.
That's not possible.
It was right here! Well, it's not there any more.
You can see for yourself.
Alpha Team, stand down.
OK, that was weird.
Er, let's pretend that never happened.
Pretend what never happened? - Let's get her out of here.
No-one kisses me without my express permission.
Is that clear? Sorry.
I, er I don't know what came over me.
Well, don't let it happen again.
Absolutely.
Argh! Yeah, like that's scary! Well, we can watch something scarier if you want.
No, no, I want to see how this one ends.
I know how it ends.
Oh, yeah? How? Argh! I have to reprogram the chip to deactivate the tracking signal.
It's dangerous, but it's There's no other option.
It can damage her? Well, that's nothing compared to what Katherine will do if Alpha Team track her down here.
Come on, Eve.
Come back to us.
You risked everything - and for what, a party? I told you not to go.
You can't leave her locked in the basement for ever, Dad.
Recalibration successful.
Where's Zac? Sorry, Eve.
We had to bring you back home.
He didn't want to be my friend, did he? You're going to have loads of friends.
Don't worry about it.
Um Do you want to play some Halloween games? I'll relight the pumpkin.
Does she seemdifferent to you? Yeah, I've never seen her react like that before.
She seems moreemotional.
Look, I'm sorry for messing things up today.
You didn't mess up.
You saved Eve, OK? I'm proud of you.
So, umdid you really kiss your boss, then? - I don't want to talk about it.
- Yeah, you do.
Er, no, I don't.
You do, though.
I have a hunch the Clarke family know more about Project Eternity than they're letting on.
They must know something.
Uh-oh.
That's blown it.
He's never met you.
Play it cool.
You're going to have to let her meet other boys one day.
I don't want to see her get hurt.
Zac asked me on a date tonight.
I said "yes".
What's a date?
