Eve (2015) s01e09 Episode Script

Trashed

I really like you, Eve.
I can't stop thinking about you.
Someone wants me to think you're selling Calimov secrets.
Me, selling secrets? Are you? I am an artificial person, created in a laboratory.
See? Stay away from me.
Look, you can't tell Katherine.
Please, Zac.
'I want you to know, I didn't tell Katherine about what you are.
- 'You have Will to thank for that.
' - You're safe.
- I don't think it's going to work, Dad.
- Course it will.
Eve's strong and never gets tired.
She could take you everywhere - school, football practice nights out with the boys.
Or you could just let her drive your car? I'll finish it tonight, then we're good to go.
- Hiya.
- Hey, Lily.
Dad, you're going to be late for work.
Oh, yes - and if it doesn't rain, we'll give it a run later.
Right? Over my dead body.
What was all that about? Don't laugh.
- Honestly, I won't.
Dad's had one of his brilliant ideas.
He thinks Eve's robot powers can "solve our transportation needs".
How, exactly? He's built us a tandem bike.
Something's wrong with my tablet - look.
It's just coming up with a load of rubbish.
Mum, what are you doing here? Oh, I thought Eve might need some comfort food.
I heard about you splitting up with your boyfriend.
What boyfriend? Oh, that's the spirit! Can you fix it? Laser eye surgery it, or something? Oi, leave her alone.
- I think it's Eve's fault this is gubbed.
- Abe! Gubbed.
I was just suggesting to Eve that we three have our girlie night tonight.
You know, go to the pictures, maybe grab a veggie burger? I would like to go out together.
- No, you wouldn't.
Oh.
Well The main thing is that you're getting over him.
Oh, what was his name again? Zac.
Sorry, Mum, but me and Will have got a lot of homework to do.
You know, poppet, some daughters like doing things with their mothers.
Yeah - daughters whose mums don't call them "poppet".
Toboramicaz, toboramicaz - Toboramicaz What? You justwent a bit weird, when we mentioned Zac.
Who? Don't you remember Zac? No.
Are you kidding me on? You've done nothing but mope about him, since you two split up.
What? Maybe you're in denial.
Can robots be in denial? What do you mean by that? Well you've been really upset.
Why? You know, cos .
.
you told him what you are.
Who? Zac.
What do you mean? He didn't like me because I'm American? No, he freaked out, cos you told him Lily, just .
.
give us a minute, yeah? It's like she's wiped all memory of Zac.
Can we try and fix it? Maybe we should wait till Dad gets home.
Or maybe we could say nothing? What? Well, I don't know about you, but I'd be happy not to hear about Zac's sparkly eyes and what a great kisser he is.
Plus, Eve gets to "move on".
- I suppose that is a good thing.
- The best.
I'd be happy to never hear his name again.
Zac.
- Sorry? - He was at your house a lot.
Mainly at your request.
Did he everdiscuss anything with you? Er, no.
At this moment, he's probably spilling Calimov secrets to some rival consortium.
I just need to know which.
Think.
He must have let something slip.
Not to me.
What about that niece of yours? - They were pretty friendly, weren't they? - Not really.
Maybe he said something to her? I don't think so.
Are you sure? Why would he tell her anything? Two reasons - she's very pretty and men are stupid.
I don't think he was that interested in Eve.
He went away and he left her, without saying a word.
But we don't know that for sure, do we? Lily, she inspires me.
What's brought all this on? Excuse me.
- I need a new tablet.
- Yeah? And I need a Ferrari.
You want a Ferrari.
That's different.
Not in my head, it isn't.
But a tablet is like, essential for homework.
Yeah? Aren't you done yet? Look at the state of you.
What do you mean? - No, don't even No, don't even - Go on, just one little hug Toboramicaz.
- Lily.
- Toboramicaz Z-zz-zz-aaa T-Toboramicaz.
ToboramicazToboramicaz Toboramicaz Oh, no.
I didn't do anything.
When did you last see Eve? I don't know, lunchtime.
She was going on about getting dumped by Zac.
So, if Eve still remembered Zac at lunchtime And then she forgets him - All I did was - Was what? .
.
show her my clean-up software Just putting this in, now.
Should be ready for when your uncle gets home.
If you're looking for Lily and Will, I think they're over in Lily's room.
I'd rather stay and talk to you.
Oh, that's nice.
You know, Lily always shuts me down when I try and have a "chat".
- Me, too.
- Really? Yes.
She won't let me talk about About Zac? About Zac? Calimov Systems.
Let's start again.
I'm Zac.
You are amazing.
You know that, Eve? Are you all right? Yes! It was Zac, my boyfriend, Zac.
That's what I wanted to talk about.
Well, I think that's very smart.
You know, it's not good to bottle these things up.
What happened, love? I don't know.
He was my boyfriend and thenhe wasn't.
Mmm.
You had a row? We must have but I don't even know what it was about.
These things happen to all of us - silly little arguments that get out of control.
It's not the end of the world.
All you have to do is apologise and make up.
But I don't even know what I'm apologising for.
Then you need to talk to him.
- Do I? - Mmm.
Don't let these things fester.
I know where he works.
Would you take me? Yeah.
Of course.
All I did was show her how to delete files that she didn't want.
She's tried to delete the memory of Zac.
She's ruined my tablet.
Tell him, she's ruined my tablet.
'Explain to me what's happening.
' Yeah, well, something must have gone wrong, cos there's all this stuff on Abe's tablet.
- 'What kind of stuff?' - Code, I think.
- 'And is it still there?' No, no, no, it's all gone now.
It's completely dead.
It sounds like she's interfered with her programming systems.
Using an inferior computer clean-up could corrupt the data.
It's like she's got a loose electric wire controlling her memory.
It could all go haywire.
She might lose all sense that she's a robot.
Don't let her out of your sight.
I'm on my way home to you now.
Nick? Going somewhere? Am I doing the right thing? Yes, I think so.
So long as you're prepared for Well, you might not hear what you want to hear.
Yes, that's true.
- But I want to know.
- Of course you do.
And if things don't go well, then you just put it down to experience and learn from it.
You know, it might not seem like it at the time, but sometimes it's the bad things the sad times, that They're the things that make the good times even better.
Lily's very fortunate to have you as a mother.
Oh, what a lovely thing to say.
Oh Oh! You're a strong girl, Eve! Good luck.
Hey, guess where I got a job? Calimov Systems.
These are the files that Zac worked on.
See if there's a clue in here, about who he might have gone to work for.
Are you all right? Fine.
Just, erkeen to get home.
It's been a busy week.
It's only Tuesday.
Well, you know? Oh, get on with it.
Eve? Yes? It's Dr Calvin.
If you're looking for Zac.
I'm looking for Zac.
Really? You haven't seen Eve, have you? Yes, I just gave her a lift.
What? - Where? - Well, to Calimov.
- What?! - She wanted to see Zac, talk about what happened.
No, no Well, she asked for my help.
Havehave I done something wrong? Only like the worst thing ever.
Couldn't you just keep your stupid nose out for once, Mum? But, no - you always have to interfere, don't you? Right, well I'll leave you alone, then.
Wait.
Aren't you going to take us there? No.
Not if you're going to speak to me like that.
And Eve needs space, to sort out her own problems.
Nice one.
How are we going to get there, now? So I know something must have happened, but I don't know what.
You can't remember? That is why I'm here.
I need to speak to him.
I need to apologise for whatever I did.
Well, he isn't here.
He's disappeared.
Disappeared? That's why I wanted to speak to you.
You think something's happened to him? There are a lot of unscrupulous people out there and I'm worried, Eve.
He's vulnerable and cutting-edge scientific research is full of ruthless, ambitious people.
We should report him missing, then.
Call the police? They won't do anything.
That's why you and I need to work together.
Anything I can do to help.
- It might be OK.
- Mmm.
Dad said she might not know she's a robot, so she's less likely to give herself away.
Unless she shows off her super-robot strength by accident.
Or she has another one of her eye glitches.
Just get on it, will you! Riding a tandem I'm going to look such an idiot.
Three, two, one pedal.
Whoa, slow down Lily! Did he ever talk about going over to another company? Talk about anyone he met? Did Zac discuss his work at all? I bumped into your Uncle Nick.
We're going to be working together on this thing called "Project Eternity".
Does he, er does he ever talk to you about it? He told me you thought my Uncle Nick was involved with something called "Project Eternity".
And that you sent him to spy on us.
You spied on us? "Spy" is a bit harsh.
But he didn't find anything except me.
But he told you about looking for Project Eternity? He didn't want there to be any lies between us.
Is that so? Hi.
I'm looking for a girl with long blonde hair and she she might have been looking for Zacor Nick Clarke? Yes, she's with Doctor Calvin.
So, the day he disappeared he was with you? Yes.
What's the last thing he said, before he left? I don't recall.
He must have said something! Think.
The truth is, we just don't know what would happen.
Why are you pretending to be Will's cousin? You've picked up some jargon from your Uncle Nick and you're trying to what, to make fun of me? Scare me? So what are we going to do, now? When I say, run.
What? The last thing he said He told me to get out of the way .
.
and to stay away from him - because - Yes? .
.
Because I wasn't what he thought I was.
Go on.
- Three I Two .
.
was - What's happening? - 'There's been an alarm activation.
' There's been some trouble downstairs.
You stay here, while I sort it.
Eve? Eve! Come on.
Come on.
- Will? - Are you OK? Yes.
You need to get out of there.
It's not safe.
What do you mean? Katherine What did you tell her? I don't know.
Stuff about Zac.
No, I meanabout you.
Does she know? Know what? Eve, do you really not remember what happened with Zac? No! Do you know? Eve, the reason why Zac Eve, you're a robot.
This isn't going to work.
Stay away from me! Eve You're lying.
Why did you set off our alarms? To meet you.
Yeah, I've heard so much about you, from Mr Clarke.
Wellnot so much about you, because that would be Cos he's very security-conscious and it would be a breach of confidence, which he'd never do.
What I'm trying to say is, I'm really good at science and I'd so love to work here.
And you thought setting off the fire alarms would alert me to your skills as a scientist? You're always told to make a big impact on a potential employer(!) Youryour eyes have telescopic range and, uminfra red capability.
Your brainis way faster than any other computer.
If you think about it, you'll know.
'You OK, Robo-girl?' How could you lie like that? Eve, listen to me.
Come on, Robo-girl, speak to me.
My dad, he's in the surgery.
Project Eternity.
Are you listening? I need to get you out of there - and you can do it - by locking into the systems.
I don't know how.
You do.
Eve trust me.
Eve, you have to hurry.
You need to plug yourself into the electronic system.
You can open this door.
Please come on! Come on I am a robot.
My protocols are as follows - survive, learn, adapt, evolve.
Oh, gross! Let's just say it was really, really tasty.
It's extraordinary.
When Eve deleted those memories theoretically, the only way she could have got them back was by us reprogramming her.
What does that mean? She's been able to regenerate neurons.
You are remarkable.
Memory bank now completely restored.
I gubbed Abe's tablet.
Ah, yes I should maybe see to that.
How are you, anyway - now that you've got your memory back? Sad - about Zac But that's all right, because sadness is something to learn from - and it's part of being human.
Right.
For example, Lily's mother feels pain at Lily's rejection of her.
She does not run away from the pain.
She embraces it, as part of being a mother.
I must embrace my sadness.
It is part of being me.
This is something else.
I know.
I mean, I can't wait to see it all up and running.
I'll give him a shout, yeah? You just cover it up, yeah? - Right.
- Good.
Abe? Abe, mate, can you come down for a minute? Nick's got something for you.
Doctor Clarke has got something to replace your tablet.
This is going to make your friends green with envy.
Honestly, Abe, it's state-of-the-art.
Forget IBM.
Forget Homelab.
Forget Apple.
It's eons ahead of its time.
This is Entrachikwe.
The computer that broke the mould.
It's awesome, isn't it? Er Built in 1990 - it's a classic.
But can you play games on it? Mum I'm sorry I was mean.
Yeah.
Hug? And maybe we could grab a veggie burger? Yeah, we could maybe go clothes shopping, see a film? Orgo to the science museum? Mary Douglas.
Hello, Eve.
Mother? Yes.
Where are you? I'm close.
Be ready.
She could be anywhere.
Well, she won't get lost - she's got a sat nav.
She is out there, on her own! She's hiding in Elmbank Forest.
How do you pay me the reward? I'm not giving you anything.
But I told you where she is.
