Eve (2015) s02e07 Episode Script

A Case of Identity

- You'rea robot? - Yeah, but you have to keep it quiet.
- Please.
I told you, he is Cain.
- And we don't know anything about him.
- I do.
He's a loner and has no friends.
Will Clarke.
He took a page out of my address book.
Your address! Activating protocol minus one.
'Eve knows and trusts you.
'I hope you understand meAdam.
' - Who's Adam? - Another robot.
And it's someone we know ELECTRONIC NOISES DISTORTED VOICES - MAN: - 'No! Look out!' GUNSHO NOISES AND VOICES CONTINUE SCREAMING - Any change? - No.
Eve? It's Lily.
No.
No, don't.
This is scary.
She's cracking up.
Do you think it's got something to do with that Adam thing? What, the humanoid robot Mary Douglas sent to get Eve? No, that wouldn't freak her out at all.
Yeah, well, it's freaking me out.
Eve? Eve? No.
No, don't.
I thought I'd stopped her getting to Eve.
That's what this is about.
Mary hates the fact she can't control her so she brings in this Adam, to what? Establish a connection? A link back to Mary? A link via which she can reprogram her .
.
by remote control.
Eve Eve.
- Eve, come on, snap out of it.
- Eve.
Are you all right? Where are you going? Eve? Eve? Eve? Eve? Eve! - THEY BANG ON DOOR - What are you doing?! - Eve, come on.
- Oh, I'll ring my dad.
- Eve? - Eve? SINISTER MUSIC Eve? - Will.
- Come on.
Come on! Eve? Eve, what is going on? elementary, my dear Watson.
Has someone been communicating with you? I have been receiving data from the most powerful source.
Mary Douglas? No.
Television.
I have been analysing the methods of the great detective Sherlock Holmes.
And I am taking the case.
"The case"? We have a spy in our midst and I intend to catch him.
The game is afoot.
His name is Adam.
He is a robot.
If we assume that he was created to the same specification as me, then he's super-intelligent, perfectly formed, his eyes are digital cameras, his brain a computer, limbs detachable.
He doesn't eat, drink or breathe.
His robot status is undetectable - to the human eye.
- He's infiltrated our group.
- A group is a collection of individuals with something in common.
In ours, we know that I'm a robot, and who is in our group? Will, Lily, Nick, Katherine, Zac, Abe, and who is new to it? - Cain.
- Isaac.
- Ah, yes.
They are both suspects.
- But Isaac knows Eve's a robot.
- But if Cain's the robot, he knows, too.
There is a simple way to detect which is the robot.
- I will scan them.
- Please don't.
We don't know what you're dealing with.
- Yes, I do.
Mary Douglas.
- Who tried to destroy you.
Look, for all we know, she sent this Adam to achieve what she failed.
- MOVEMENT AND VOICES UPSTAIRS - Shh Guys Do you hear something? - VOICE UPSTAIRS: - 'How'd you do that?' Mark it clearly.
Watch closely.
Blow.
ABE GASPS It's in your sleeves.
Check my pockets.
Awesome! - Wait, that's my money! - No, that's magic.
You've got to show me how you do it.
We could make a killing.
Hello.
Abe, can I talk to you for a moment? Just give Eve a moment with Isaac.
Abe said it was all right just to come in.
Is something wrong? Abe share.
Er No, thanks.
Oh, go on, then.
HE GAGS Ugh, I think I'm going to throw up.
Oh.
That would be acceptable proof! - Candy Yuck.
- I like them.
Here, drink this.
That one wasearwax.
You're sick, do you know that? - Come on, let's go.
- Thanks.
- So what happened with the scan? - It failed.
I think he might be protected by a firewall.
Dad and Katherine are working on it.
Let's just leave it to them.
I've taken the case and I will see it through.
I wish you'd stop with this Sherlock thing.
This isn't a game, you know.
- Don't be so boring, Watson.
- And stop calling me Watson, Eve! Mary doesn't know we know about Adam, so we've got a bit of a lead.
Maybe even an opportunity.
Yes, but our priority is finding his identity and his whereabouts.
And getting him under our control.
- Look, Katherine, all I care about is Eve.
- Oh, me, too.
But I've got the board breathing down my neck.
They want results.
If I can give them Adam, reprogrammed, of course, all memory of Mary Douglas wiped from his system Eve would be safe.
Oh, yes.
That, too.
- Come on, Cain's my friend.
- Isaac's Abe's, that didn't rule him out.
But Abe's an idiot.
I'm not.
- You have to admit, though, Cain's pretty weird.
- Er, hello? I WAS the first person he spoke to.
Yeah, then he just sort of tagged himself onto us.
And that makes him a spy, does it? - Well, have you ever been round his house? - No.
- Have you ever seen him eat or drink? - Or bleed? Exactly.
Check the birth registers to see if he's even a real person.
Well, that's .
.
actually not a bad idea.
Right, Eve, Cain Birtwistle, 2001.
I'm doing it.
ELECTRONIC NOISES Anything? Not in that year.
Widen the search.
Do the whole of the UK.
I already have.
If we could isolate the frequency Mary used to communicate with Adam, we could send her a reply FROM Adam, trick her into revealing his identity.
Or track it to reveal his whereabouts.
- Dr Clarke, how's Eve? - She's fine.
Staying at home until we can figure this thing out.
Now sit down, we've got work to do.
Hey, what are you doing? - Enjoying the silence.
- Cool.
Can I come and hang out with you? - Yeah, if you want.
- OK.
Where are you? At the graveyard.
OK, yeah, see you later.
Bye.
Increased heart rate, shortness of breath, fidgeting, - sweat on the palms of hands - fear.
- Just a bit.
You're not in danger.
Your only goal is to see if he will eat or drink.
Yeah, and we'll be close by the whole time.
Not "we," I'm staying here.
Oh, come on, don't make me choose.
Go, Will, I need to be alone.
I need to discover what Mary Douglas wants, why she sent Adam, why now and for what purpose.
Wait, you're not going to, erm, try and contact her, are you? No, I'm going to my mind palace to solve the mystery.
Now, go.
Go.
Let's go.
Adam, android, artificial, danger, daughter, destiny, deceive, danger, mother, link cannot be found.
Oh, come on! What's keeping you? Gwenlan managed to access Mary's communications.
Well, then, I suggest you ask him, Katherine.
Oh, no, best not, on account of him being our sworn enemy.
Dr Clarke, I think I got it.
- And you're sure she can't trace it back to us? - No, no way.
OK.
Right, erm, we send a message.
"I'm glad you're pleased.
" "Glad," no, it's too human.
She'll suspect something.
OK.
How about "Message received, ready for further instructions, Adam"? Now all we have to do is wait.
Do you want a packet? I'm not hungry, thanks.
Do you want to know the time? Look.
One o'clock.
Two o'clock.
Look, you just blow like this.
No, don't.
- Why not? - Dandelions are weeds, you shouldn't scatter them.
Didn't know you cared so much about weeds.
There's a lot about me that you don't know.
Anyway, I'm, er, going home.
Do you want to come? ErmI don't I thought you wanted to hang out.
Yeah, sorry, OK.
Mary, mother, mislead, mother, danger, destiny, daughter, mother, deceived, mother, danger, destiny, mother, link cannot be found.
Alert, alert, alert, alert.
Link cannot be found.
Alert, alert, alert, alert.
Adam, android, artificial, danger, daughter, destiny.
Link cannot be found.
Mother, mislead, android, link cannot be found.
Alert, alert, alert, alert.
Mother, angry, daughter, destiny, deceive.
- Link cannot be found.
- Eve.
- Alert, alert, alert.
Link cannot be found.
Deceive, mother, danger, destiny, mother.
- Eve.
- Link cannot be found.
Alert, alert, alert.
- Are you OK? - artificial, danger, daughter - Eve, talk to me.
Link cannot be found.
Alert, alert.
Mary, my mother, she's angry, she has sent Adam to force me - to return to her.
- What? He's here? - No, I saw it in my mind palace.
- Your? - Mind palace.
It is a technique used by the ancient Greeks and Romans.
In my mind I went over all the elements of the case and And frightened yourself.
OK? That's all that's happened.
I do have reason to be scared.
We could run away.
You and me, just take off.
Mary can't control you remotely.
We could get away before she gets to you through Adam.
You'd be out of her clutches for good.
And never see my family again? You'd have me.
Dear Zac, Mary will always find a way to get to me.
Adam is proof of that.
It's just up here.
OK.
Here we are.
Don't go in the house.
Don't go in, Lily.
Please.
Ugh! - Do you want a coffee? - Yeah, please.
I'll make it.
Do you want some? No, I don't really feel like it.
PHONE VIBRATES - You'll need this.
- SHE GASPS Ermsorry, that was my mum, I've got to go.
DOOR OPENS - What have you found out? - This is Gwenlan's house, I was here.
- No, there must be - No, I was here, inside.
Where are you going? - Will, I need answers.
- Lily.
Cain? Cain? - I think you've got some explaining to do.
- Lily, leave it.
- I have had a significant realisation.
- About Adam? - About why I can't find him.
I have no intuition.
- I'm sorry? I can retrieve information, I can process facts but I cannot make that leap.
Like Sherlock Holmes, the way he suddenly knows what everything means.
When he goes to his mind palace, he makes a discovery.
All I did was overload my system.
Come on, Eve, he's not even a real person.
I will never solve this case because I will never be like him.
You don't have to be like anyone.
You're brilliant and unique and that's why Mary goes to such lengths to get you back.
If you want to find Adam, just be yourself.
Look, Cain, we checked the birth registers and there's no record of anyone with your name.
Yes, that's because my real name is kind of embarrassing.
What? Is it Gwenlan? No, that's my father's name.
I've got my mother's.
- So you're not really called Cain? - Yes, I am now.
I got it changed.
- From what? - Arnold.
Hang on, what do you mean you checked it? - Good job we did, seeing as what we found out.
- And what was that? Nothing.
Come on, we need to go.
Cain, do you know that your dad works for Price? Yes, they're just trying to limit our dependence on - artificial intelligence.
So what? - "So what"? They break into labs, destroy years of scientific research, they even hacked a drone.
Cain, do you have any idea of how dangerous that is? Come on, Lily, we need to go.
If he sees me in here again, he'll Again? - OK, what's going on? - Nothing, come on, we need to go.
- Cain - No, just leave.
Just leave now.
- Come on.
- Get out, leave! I've got Alpha team on red alert ready to pick him up - when we have a location.
- I got back as soon as I could.
- Thought we might have heard something.
- Nope, nothing.
How's Eve? Worried.
Will and Lily will call if anything happens.
They weren't there.
Well, in that case, I'd feel a lot better if you went back and kept an eye on her.
Off you go, then.
COMPUTER BEEPS "Further instructions in due course.
" This tells us nothing.
It tells us we're through to Mary.
And the longer we stay in communication with her, the easier it will be to trace Adam.
We need to keep her talking.
"I will not fail you"? Hardly a conversation starter, Nick.
How about .
.
"Your last communication was unclear.
"Please resend data of location you wish me to bring Eve to"? It is not Isaac and it is not Cain.
I .
.
am a failure.
- Don't say that.
- It is true.
From Mary's point of view.
In my mother's eyes, I'm a disappointment.
An experiment gone wrong.
She will have designed Adam to be everything that I'm not.
Like capable of eating and drinking and That's it! - What? - She is a genius forever refining her invention.
- Eve, you're brilliant.
- And I do have intuition.
It came to me in a flash.
Lily was eating and I was thinking about Adam and Isaac.
The only reason we ruled him out is because we saw him drink.
It is a known technique to rule out the real culprit early on to throw you off the scent.
Eve, this is real life.
Let's get him back over.
Right, OK.
- But don't we need a plan first? - I have one.
As a robot, I need to gather as much information as I can get about humans to help me pass as one.
So can I ask you a few personal questions? Cool, shoot.
- What's your date of birth? - Sixth of June, 2004.
- Your mother's first name? - Alison.
- Do you like Abe? - Eh? - Eh? - Yes, I like him.
- Do you like me? - Yes.
- Because I'm a robot? - Yes.
No.
Is that why you're friends with Abe? To get close to me? Not really, I just Close to me, the robot, so you can report back to Price? - What? No way.
- Eve, stop it.
- Look what you've done.
- Sorry, Isaac.
- Put that down.
You can't see that.
A magician never reveals his secrets.
- A detachable thumb.
- Give it back! - It's hollow.
No circuits or - I said give me that.
- So THAT'S how you do those tricks.
- Give me that.
Ouch! Oh, paper cut.
Here.
- Do not worry, Isaac, we will not reveal your secrets.
- Oh, please(!) I would never reveal your secret, I just thought it would've been cool hanging out with this robot gang.
But you're just too weird.
COMPUTER BEEPS "Congratulations on getting so close to Eve.
"Details of rendezvous point to follow.
" - It worked.
- This is it.
"Nowhere you'll ever find, Katherine.
" KNOCKING Eve, what are you doing? Hey.
I know what you did.
- You stole a page out of Laurie's address book.
- What? You used me to get to her.
Don't deny it.
Not you You're not sufficiently significant but Could you excuse us a moment? Eve, what? Why didn't we think of Chris? As the robot? Because of your long-standing friendship, that's why but I'm also having another intuition here.
Adam does not have to be someone new.
So Mary could've made a replica of someone we know? Hold on, you think the robot's someone we already know? Who could it be? Abe, for example.
Cool.
My mother said it was someone close to me.
You two are my closest friends.
- So you think it could be Will? - What? - Unless my mother gave the robot a female form.
- You mean it's Lily? - No.
- Well, it's not me.
- Well, it's not me.
- Well, I can prove it.
So can I.
- Well, at least that clears that up, then.
- You shed your blood for me.
But if it's neither of you DOORBELL BUZZES It's Zac.
At the door? Zac who is the robot.
- Eve, is this another one of your intuitions? - This is reason.
He is closer to me than anyone.
Zac? Mary's team got him that time, remember? That's when she made the copy.
Eve, you're amazing.
Hi, guys.
Hey.
Are you all right? What's wrong? DOOR OPENS What's going on? Eve, I had to come back.
OK? I couldn't stop thinking about you and Oh, two Zacs.
But one's Adam.
Yes.
But who? You? Or you? Adam's targeting you.
You need to stay away from him.
- From both of them.
- Yeah, right.
Now, go - hurry! She could have any number of robot slaves, all programmed to destroy us.
BANGING - What was that? - Adam.
You can't raise Eve on any of her comm systems.
So there's no way of finding her? You do not want to do this.
If you try to touch me, you will fry.
