Jake 2.0 (2003) s01e06 Episode Script

Last Man Standing

See this? It's what I use to monitor Jake and track his vitals and stuff like that.
It's technology at its best.
- Jake! - Sarah! - Who's the girl? - Oh, it's Sarah.
Georgetown Sarah? Lived in the same dorm for four years and never asked her out - Sarah? That's the one.
See how the nanites have positioned themselves along his central nervous system? What they're doing is establishing contact with the brain.
The lab mice experienced muscle spasms.
In rare cases, they rejected the nanites and the result's not good.
What is going to happen to me? I received your message.
I will meet you at the restaurant.
Hmm.
Buon giyrno, Lorenzo.
Come sta? Bene? Ciao, Maria.
Antonio piccolo Antonio bebe laco Antonio? Antonio? Oh, my god.
Jake.
Come on.
Come on, Jake.
Oh! Jake! Wh are you okay? Yes, I'm fine.
What are you doing here? Well, I was worried about you.
I checked your vitals, and they-they showed Oh, no.
What? Um my screen is frozen.
I'm sorry.
Oh, my god.
That's me.
Jake Foley, I'm in Tech Support.
Security Clearance: Low.
Very low.
Then one day, it all changed.
Life just got real interesting.
Fran, we need to run another diagnostic screen.
We've just run one.
Yeah.
Well, his vitals are fading fast, so we need to run another one.
Okay, okay, the screen, I know.
It was my fault, but there was more to the story.
- I certainly hope so.
- Yeah.
See that mouse? That's Antonio, who, unfortunately, remains in the same state in which I found him this morning - that is, paralyzed.
Can I show you something? This particular side effect has occurred on rare occasions in beta versions of the nanites, but never before in this latest version.
- Is that what's in - Antonio.
Yes.
It's also what's in Jake.
- In fact, they're twins.
- Twins? Yeah.
They were injected on the same day, which is why why I'm concerned.
Is Jake showing any symptoms? - Well no, but - Dr.
Hughes, because if he is, I I need to know about it.
- Okay.
- I'm quite serious.
I can't afford to have Jake being a risk out in the field.
Do you understand? Yes.
Of course.
Good.
Keep your eye on him.
Well, that's not going to be easy.
- Departure time? - 9:00 A.
M.
- What's the flight number? - Flight 10-11.
Hmm, that sounds really familiar.
Sarah, you're not going to believe this.
- We are on the exact same flight.
- Great.
Mm-hmm.
Hey, are you staying at that inn - - what's that place called? - No.
I'm staying at the Bay Lodge.
Yeah.
I thought the lodge looked better, too.
We can share a car.
Sure.
Sure we can share a car.
That's a great idea.
- Okay.
Friday at 10:00.
- See ya.
Jake.
Yes? - Could I have a word? - Sure.
Ow! How could this come as a surprise? I put my request in to Human Resources three weeks ago.
Well, unbeknownst to Human Resources, you have a half billion dollars' worth of research inside of you.
Research that many people would like to get their hands on.
It's a wedding.
- You're still at risk.
- From what, drunken bridesmaids? Lou, I woke up this morning with guns in my face.
What's next, sidearm chaperones on dates? Permission to go potty? It's for your own protection, Jake.
And I appreciate that, but I need to have a life outside of this.
My friend is getting married.
I'm his best man.
Please.
All I'm asking for here is two days.
Two days of a normal life.
Sarah, hey.
Glad this worked out.
I, uh you know, it's great about Kevin and Jen.
I like you.
Hey, Sarah, hey.
Glad this worked out with the car and the whole flight.
Maybe we could go out sometime and cut the rug it's funny how, you know, they've been friends for so long, and we've been friends for so long - not that we should get married.
I'm not saying that.
Definitely not saying that.
Sorry I'm late.
Hey! I just got caught up, and anyway.
Don't worry about it - I'm just glad this whole thing worked out.
So, pretty great about Kevin and Jen.
Been friends for so long, getting married.
It's amazing.
Yeah.
I knew eventually they'd figure it out.
- Yeah.
- Okay, so we got to go.
Oh.
Okay.
Um, listen - We have all day to talk.
- Yeah.
- Hi.
- Oh, uh, Jake, Alex.
Alex, Jake.
- Nice to meet you.
- Yeah.
You, too.
Um, let me sit in the middle.
Oh, you guys, this weekend's going to be so much fun.
- Yeah, it's going to be great.
- Okay.
Dude Hey, man, how's it going? What's up, Kev? Yeah! Whoa! Can't believe you're still wearing the same old ratty jacket.
Yeah, yeah.
I can't believe you're still losing your hair.
Hey! Let's not hit a guy below the belt on his wedding.
So finally happened.
Yeah, a lot quicker than I expected, believe me.
I thought for sure I was going to be the last one to go.
No, no, apparently, that's me.
Speaking of which, am I the only single person here? What happened? I thought you were coming with Sarah.
You know, that didn't exactly work out as planned.
Uh-huh.
You still haven't told her how you feel.
- It's all about timing.
- Right, yeah, years and years of timing.
Come on, buddy, step off the ledge.
- I mean, look, it happened with Jenny.
- You stalked her.
Whatever.
She said yes.
Hey, oh, listen, um, just go grab yourself a drink, and, um, I'll go find my bride.
She's dying to see you.
Thanks for coming.
- Okay, man.
- Okay.
See you tomorrow.
Hey, Fran? - Can you do me a favor? - What? If, uh, if we're asked any questions about the mice or Jake just let me know first.
- Yeah.
- Thanks.
Yep.
Having fun.
Aww, finally, a familiar face.
Hey.
I swear, I've been meeting relatives I didn't even know existed.
- Jen, you look beautiful.
- Thank you.
You're much too beautiful for this guy.
Well, what can I say? Geeks turn me on.
- Yeah.
Ha! - Hmm.
So, a lot of people are looking forward to that toast.
- Oh, yeah, how is that coming, by the way? - Uh, it's, um, right in here.
- You got nothing.
- Not a word.
Oh, Jake.
Honey, Aunt Lois wants to see you.
Oh, is she sober? Uh, for the moment, so now's a good time.
- Okay.
- Good luck.
Hey, hey, who's that guy over there? Well, who are you talking about? The guy walking away - he's been looking at me.
Oh, that's probably my cousin Phil.
He's a really weird dude.
Hey.
He's single.
Ha.
Ha-ha.
Jerk.
Oh, great.
That's me.
Oh, hi.
Um Oh, here, you want to, uh have a seat.
- Thank you.
- Sure.
I'm Jake Foley.
- Nice to meet you, Jake Foley.
- You, too are you bride or groom? Bride - we work together.
Ah.
Groom - best man.
So, I, uh, guess they meant for us to meet.
Hey, baby.
Honey! I'd like you to meet Jake.
Jake, this is Rachel, my partner.
- Did you see that one? - Yeah.
Isn't that funny.
With the beard.
I don't know what's going on.
What am I doing? No, no, no.
Alex, stop.
That tickles.
Oh, how about this? Oh, that's perfect.
How about here? Idiot.
Idiot.
All right, all right.
Hello.
Jake, hey, it's Diane.
What are you doing? - Nothing.
- Really? I just noticed some nanite activity, so Diane, you're monitoring me at a wedding.
I'm sorry, Jake.
It's my job.
I know.
I know, I know.
I'm sorry.
- It's just it's just - What? Nothing.
It's nothing.
Jake I don't know, I guess I'm just frustrated, you know.
I'm here, all my friends are here and they're all moving on with their lives.
They're all falling in love and they're having families and it's just so clear that I'm going nowhere.
Jake, listen, all these things that you're feeling - they're they're very common.
I mean, just about everybody experiences them at one time or another.
I mean, in med school we even coined a term for it.
Oh, yeah, what's that? Yeah, "single syndrome.
" Is it fatal? No.
It's just mildly depressing.
In the meantime, just try and get some sleep, okay? - Thanks, Diane.
- Good night.
Good night.
Who is it? Hi.
Hey.
You're surprised.
A little bit.
Well, I checked with an expert on the whole single syndrome thing, and he said you should never go to a wedding without a date.
So here I am.
I mean, not as your date - just as a friend posing as your date.
Diane, uh, you didn't have to No, no, I know.
I had all these frequent-flier miles and I kind of always wanted to see Seattle, so I can't believe you flew all the way out here.
Yeah.
So you're buying breakfast.
Oh, so the whole bouquet thing - it's like why don't you just shine a spotlight down on all the single, desperate women whose entire fate lies in the hands of this bride just blindly throwing flowers over her head.
And then you have me.
I mean, at my height, do you think I even stand a chance? - Thanks.
- Thanks.
I don't think I can eat this.
What? Why not? My stomach's all in knots.
- Really, since when? - I don't know.
Uh, a couple days ago.
- Okay, well, is it is it? - Put it away! - Jake, this could be serious.
- It's not serious.
It's the wedding toast, okay? This happens every time I have to speak in public.
Sorry.
Can I help at all? No, no, I'm beyond help.
It's like watching a train wreck.
It's okay.
Everyone expects a disaster, and I deliver every time.
Jake.
Dude, paint ball.
- Oh, yeah, yeah.
- Paint ball? Yeah, it's kind of a tradition.
You know, the whole battle before the battle type of thing.
You okay? Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.
- Okay, I'll see you later.
- Okay.
- Let's go.
- C'mon.
David.
Redner.
Jesse.
Meeks.
Uh Shefflin.
Spider.
Later, Foley.
Okay, guys, listen up.
This may very well be the last time I get to see all of you guys without permission.
But, and despite of the fact that we are all about to go to war, let's not forget we came here to have some fun, okay? So remember, safety first, guys.
Ow! Ow! Ow! That doesn't count, does it? That's my best man.
Okay, guys, let's do it.
Oh, Fran.
It's Diane.
Anything on Antonio? Not yet.
I'm still reviewing the backup data.
- Okay, so you'll let me know? - Yeah.
So, how's Jake? Oh, he's fine.
I feel kind of silly.
Well, it's better that you went anyway.
Yeah.
So listen, call me when you're done, okay? All right.
Honey.
We're right over here.
- They already started.
- Okay, started what? - Oh, no thank you, but this really - Honey This is so not my thing.
Looking glamorous is every woman's thing.
Oh, thank you.
Ooh.
Okay.
You're a dead man, Foley! - Who've you got? - It's just Foley.
This is going to be easy.
Okay, you flank right.
I'll go left.
He'll have nowhere to run.
On three, ready? One two three.
Well, that was easy.
Damn.
Mani-pedi's one of life's greatest pleasures.
I'm a virgin.
Well, I'm a mani-pedi virgin.
It's my first time.
- You're kidding? - No.
I always thought they were like a big waste of time.
And now I see that that's the point.
Oh, exactly.
I'm Sarah Carter.
Oh Oh, hi.
Oh, I'm so sorry! I'm Diane Hughes.
I'm really sorry.
- Don't worry about it.
Don't worry.
- Oh, god.
So are you with the bride or the groom? Oh, the groom I guess.
Although I haven't actually met him.
I'm with Jake.
- Jake Foley? - Yeah.
- We went to college together.
- Yeah, I know.
He's mentioned you to me before once.
Just once.
Oh, uh that's so weird, 'cause we rode to the airport together and he never mentioned bringing a date.
Well, I'm not actually his date.
I'm his doctor.
Well, I'm a doctor.
I'm a doctor.
So it was a last minute thing.
I guess so.
So how'd you meet? Just at work.
So you're a doctor at the NSA? Mm-hmm.
Yes, Research.
That must be really interesting.
Yeah.
What kind of research do you do? Oh, I'm in I am not allowed to tell you.
It's a confidentiality thing.
- Right.
- Sarah! Um oh, Valerie's open.
- It's nice to meet you.
- Yeah.
- I'll see you later.
- Okay.
Hey, Jake.
All right, all right, you got me.
Hey, fella I think you've got to turn down your pressure a little bit.
What's the matter, Jake, you afraid? Seriously, man, you're going to hurt somebody.
Exactly.
Jake, where you going? Hey, Jake, come back.
I just want to talk.
Hey, Jake, wait up, Jake.
Fantastic.
Absolutely beautiful.
You've outdone yourself.
Hi.
I'm all yours.
Okay.
Aw, Jake, where you been? I've got this little thing today - it's called a wedding.
Your cousin Phil is out of his freakin' mind.
- Yeah, so? - Seriously.
- He was trying to hurt me out there.
- With paint balls? Yeah.
- Paint balls? - Yes.
Yes.
- My cousin, Phil? - Yeah - That's Phil? - Yeah.
Hey.
I'm Jake.
You think maybe you were a little aggressive out there? Yeah, there's nothing like a good hunt, huh? Yeah.
Fun, fun, maybe for you.
I had you until that jump.
Where'd you learn how to do that? Uh well, it was a lot lower than it looked.
Yeah, I guess it was.
Hey, I didn't catch your name.
See you at the wedding.
- Paul, where's Jake? - I don't know.
Oh, man.
Well, unbeknownst to human resources you have a half billion dollars worth of research inside of you.
Research that a lot of people would like to get their hands on.
There's nothing like a good hunt, huh? You are still at risk.
It's for your own safety.
Secure line to Deputy Director Louise Beckett.
What? Uh, oh, yeah.
Uh, Alpha Charlie Tango 4271.
No, no, no, listen, this is an emergen hello? Hi.
Have you noticed all the activity outside? That's my daughter's wedding beginning.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
I'll be right there.
I need you to call the police.
May I ask why? Yeah.
'Cause there's a guy in room 214 who's trying to kill me, that's why.
That was 214? Yes.
Yes.
Room 214.
Dude Jake what is your deal, man? Everyone in there is waiting on you.
I'm sorry.
Just give me one second.
Jake, dude, you're my best man, okay? I'm kind of freaking out here.
I really need you.
He needs you.
Okay? You're right.
You're right, let's go.
Call them now.
- I think she's up ahead on the right.
- What? Diane, your date.
We met.
Oh, great.
She seems really, um interesting.
Yeah.
Yes, she is.
You keep a good secret, Jake.
What? I looked across the room and I thought to myself, "that girl is totally out of my reach.
" Jenny, being with you has taught me how to love and be loved.
Makes realize nothing is beyond my reach.
Jake Jake ring.
Oh.
Yeah.
Sorry.
Here you go.
Jenny I love you.
Oh, man.
That was beautiful.
Fran! Deputy Director Beckett called.
She's checking up on Jake.
What do I say? Fran, don't tell her where I am.
Tell her I'll call her back.
May this beautiful day shine eternally in your lives.
May it add brilliance to every achievement and cast a divine light over any misfortune.
Yeah, come on, come on, come on.
And may all that is virtuous, beautiful and honest remain in your lives.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is my honor to introduce you to Kevin and Jenny, husband and wife.
You may kiss the bride.
It starts with the muscles.
First you think it's just tension.
What are you talking about? Poison.
It's in your water bottle.
You were very thirsty.
Spreads to the eyes and the ears and soon there'll be nothing left.
Not even the nanites can help you.
It's not worth the fight, Jake.
You're already dead.
Fran, it's Diane.
Do you have anything on Antonio? Yeah, there was an abnormal increase in nanite activity around the interior cortex.
But this is where it gets weird.
On his brain, Antonio had a massive cluster of nanites in his frontal lobe.
Oh, no.
No.
What happened? Where is he? Where's Jake? - You know Jake Foley? - Yes.
What happened? Well, that's what we're trying to find out.
Mr.
Foley was seen on security camera breaking into one of the rooms.
- What? Why? - We have no idea.
Jake.
Diane, get out of here.
He's after me.
Jake, no one is after you.
- No, he's trying to kill me.
- Jake Jake, listen to me.
It's the nanites.
The nanites are killing you.
What? Okay, okay go and lay down, okay? Okay? Oh lay down.
Okay, don't worry, Jake.
We're going to figure this out, okay? - Diane.
Diane.
- What? - Diane.
- What? Diane he's here.
He's in the room.
Jake, Jake, listen to me.
What you are seeing is not real.
Diane, he's right behind you.
No.
No, this is all in your mind.
The nanites are rejecting you.
They are overloading your brain with electrical impulses and making you see things that are not there.
Jake, look, I need you to see this.
That's got to be uncomfortable.
Okay, up.
I got this from hotel security.
It's from earlier today.
Who are you talking to? - He was there.
- No.
No.
I know it doesn't make sense to you right now, but you have to trust me.
In his room, the pictures of me.
The room was empty.
This is all in your mind.
There has to be something in the kernel.
Diane Maybe the code is self-replicating, - or there's a memory link.
- Diane Diane, I can't move.
Jake, it's in here.
The answer is in here somewhere and I will find it.
There's no more time.
- You got to reboot.
- No, we can't do that.
- Why not? - Because the nanites are fully integrated into your system.
They are part of you.
If I shut them down, it will kill you.
Maybe just for a second.
No.
No.
We don't know that.
There's got to be another way.
Jake, no, I will not be the one to kill you.
Please Okay.
Okay, okay, I'm setting up the command structure.
The link is set.
She can't save you, Jake.
Okay.
You are okay.
You are okay.
Are you ready? Okay.
Jake! One, two, three.
Come on, Jake.
One, two One come on! Two, three.
Come on! Jake! Jake! Jake? I'm sorry.
Jake! Hey! Who are you? What? I'm just kidding.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
No, no! Diane, Diane, I'm the best man.
Please? I have a toast to give.
I'm okay.
I'm okay.
Okay.
Give me a second.
Director Beckett, Hi.
It's Diane.
You're asking about Jake? Yeah, have you heard from him? Yeah, I spoke to him this morning and he's fine.
I overreacted as usual.
All right.
We'll see you Monday.
Okay, bye.
Congratulations.
Thanks, buddy.
- Here we go.
- Oh.
I know you've all been looking forward to this, so, uh, here goes.
Life is, uh, hard, you know? Brace yourself, folks.
Thank you.
Go on, Jake.
Okay.
Jenny, Kevin may need more professional help than most, but he's a terrific guy, and he loves you more than anything.
And, Kevin, science may never discover how it happened, but you won Jenny's heart; and, to me, that's the real miracle here.
We're lucky if we're able to find someone who's always there for us, who stands by us no matter what.
Makes life easier.
So, to my friends, to our good friends, Kevin and Jenny.
Thanks, buddy.
Hey.
Your toast was really beautiful.
It seems like you got over your fear.
Yeah.
Yeah, I guess it was all in my head.
So, where's Alex? Oh.
I think he found somebody more his type.
I don't get it.
Alex is gay; he's a friend.
I just hate coming to these things alone.
But I thought I heard I thought that Joe So you're not? Oh, no, no.
No.
The closest Alex gets to me is a facial.
Oh.
Well So, uh, I guess I'm, I'm dateless.
Yeah.
Um I think we're supposed to dance now.
Yeah.
Sarah, I think I need to dance with my date.
Would you like to dance? Aren't you supposed to? Yes.
I forgot to tell you something.
What? You look beautiful.
Grazi.
