1
00:00:08,010 --> 00:00:10,366
This list you left
outside my door...
2
00:00:10,367 --> 00:00:12,834
"Item one:
Return Clyde to Watson."
3
00:00:14,004 --> 00:00:15,603
I enjoy his company
on the weekends;
4
00:00:15,605 --> 00:00:17,071
she has him during the week.
5
00:00:17,073 --> 00:00:18,940
I don't care how
you divide up your turtle.
6
00:00:18,942 --> 00:00:21,075
I care that you're asking me
to take him to Chelsea.
7
00:00:21,077 --> 00:00:23,945
Part of our arrangement,
you will recall,
8
00:00:23,947 --> 00:00:26,414
is that you assist with
quotidian matters when I'm busy.
9
00:00:26,416 --> 00:00:28,783
"Busy?" You're watching
a turtle eat lettuce.
10
00:00:28,785 --> 00:00:30,618
I'm conducting medical research.
11
00:00:30,620 --> 00:00:32,620
Remember, I cut my hand
12
00:00:32,622 --> 00:00:34,055
while we were
dissecting that cadaver?
13
00:00:34,057 --> 00:00:35,923
I'm tending to
the wound as we speak.
14
00:00:35,925 --> 00:00:37,659
I'm also demonstrating
that leeches
15
00:00:37,661 --> 00:00:39,394
can be useful
in accelerating
16
00:00:39,396 --> 00:00:41,729
the repair of damaged tissue.
17
00:00:41,731 --> 00:00:43,965
That is disgusting.
You're bleeding yourself.
18
00:00:43,967 --> 00:00:46,200
And you are perpetuating
a long-held prejudice
19
00:00:46,202 --> 00:00:47,402
against these creatures.
20
00:00:47,404 --> 00:00:48,970
If you say so.
21
00:00:48,972 --> 00:00:50,805
I'm still not taking your turtle
on the subway.
22
00:00:50,807 --> 00:00:52,273
If that's for me,
23
00:00:52,275 --> 00:00:53,641
I'm going to need
a few minutes.
24
00:00:53,643 --> 00:00:56,010
I'm feeling
a bit faint.
25
00:00:58,281 --> 00:00:59,981
So, sorry, I was a bit
distracted upstairs.
26
00:00:59,983 --> 00:01:01,182
I didn't catch your name.
27
00:01:01,184 --> 00:01:02,684
Edwin Borstein.
28
00:01:02,686 --> 00:01:03,985
I have a friend
29
00:01:03,987 --> 00:01:05,820
from London who's
used you before.
30
00:01:05,822 --> 00:01:07,355
He said you're excellent.
31
00:01:07,357 --> 00:01:08,723
And discreet.
32
00:01:08,725 --> 00:01:12,527
Why have you need
of my discretion?
33
00:01:12,529 --> 00:01:13,961
I run a software company.
34
00:01:13,963 --> 00:01:15,863
We specialize in
AI applications.
35
00:01:15,865 --> 00:01:17,198
I assume
you know that
36
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,700
that stands for
"artificial intelligence."
37
00:01:18,702 --> 00:01:21,102
Yes, I'm well-acquainted
with the field.
38
00:01:21,104 --> 00:01:23,104
A couple of nights ago,
someone broke into our lab.
39
00:01:23,106 --> 00:01:25,139
They made a copy of a program
40
00:01:25,141 --> 00:01:26,374
that we've been
working on.
41
00:01:26,376 --> 00:01:27,975
I rigged the computer
to take a photo
42
00:01:27,977 --> 00:01:29,210
every time
it's booted up,
43
00:01:29,212 --> 00:01:31,446
just in case something
like this happened.
44
00:01:31,448 --> 00:01:34,015
So I have a picture.
45
00:01:34,017 --> 00:01:35,416
Kind of.
46
00:01:37,153 --> 00:01:38,686
So there was a burglary.
47
00:01:38,688 --> 00:01:40,254
You've got a picture
of the criminal.
48
00:01:40,256 --> 00:01:42,924
Seems like the police should
have this well in hand.
49
00:01:42,926 --> 00:01:45,193
This program...
50
00:01:45,195 --> 00:01:46,761
it's significant.
51
00:01:48,064 --> 00:01:50,465
We call it "Bella."
52
00:01:50,467 --> 00:01:53,701
Its AI engine
is... unique.
53
00:01:53,703 --> 00:01:55,503
It... she...
54
00:01:55,505 --> 00:01:57,038
performs better than
55
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:58,706
anything you've ever
seen, I promise.
56
00:01:58,708 --> 00:02:01,376
She performs better
than we expected her to.
57
00:02:01,378 --> 00:02:03,111
Explain that.
58
00:02:03,113 --> 00:02:06,013
A few weeks back,
she made a request
59
00:02:06,015 --> 00:02:08,649
that can't be accounted for
by her programming.
60
00:02:08,651 --> 00:02:10,418
Impossible.
61
00:02:10,420 --> 00:02:11,552
What's impossible?
62
00:02:11,554 --> 00:02:12,720
For the computer
to ask for something?
63
00:02:12,722 --> 00:02:14,389
If it made a
request, it did so
64
00:02:14,391 --> 00:02:15,923
because that's what it
was programmed to do.
65
00:02:15,925 --> 00:02:19,293
He's claiming true
machine intelligence.
66
00:02:19,295 --> 00:02:20,762
If he's correct
in his claims,
67
00:02:20,764 --> 00:02:22,563
he has made
a scientific breakthrough
68
00:02:22,565 --> 00:02:25,733
of the very highest order.
69
00:02:25,735 --> 00:02:27,769
Bella isn't hooked up
to a network.
70
00:02:27,771 --> 00:02:29,470
It's a security thing.
71
00:02:29,472 --> 00:02:31,506
If she has data,
it's because we fed it to her.
72
00:02:31,508 --> 00:02:34,642
But two weeks ago,
I booted her up
73
00:02:34,644 --> 00:02:37,779
and she asked to be connected
to the Internet.
74
00:02:37,781 --> 00:02:40,681
And how, pray tell,
75
00:02:40,683 --> 00:02:43,551
does your software know
that the Internet even exists?
76
00:02:43,553 --> 00:02:45,620
She could have intuited
its existence
77
00:02:45,622 --> 00:02:46,888
from data fed to her.
78
00:02:46,890 --> 00:02:49,323
Bunkum.
79
00:02:49,325 --> 00:02:51,759
There is no such thing as
"artificial intelligence."
80
00:02:51,761 --> 00:02:53,995
At least not in the sense
you're talking about.
81
00:02:53,997 --> 00:02:55,830
It's all just
clever programming.
82
00:02:55,832 --> 00:02:56,832
I don't think so.
83
00:02:56,833 --> 00:02:58,800
Not with Bella.
84
00:03:00,737 --> 00:03:03,037
I still don't understand.
85
00:03:03,039 --> 00:03:04,605
So are you going to rip open
86
00:03:04,607 --> 00:03:07,475
the computer and
look at all the wires?
87
00:03:07,477 --> 00:03:08,810
Something called a "Turing Test"
88
00:03:08,812 --> 00:03:10,678
is routinely issued
in AI labs.
89
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,480
An examiner sits
in front a computer,
90
00:03:12,482 --> 00:03:14,248
poses a series of questions
91
00:03:14,250 --> 00:03:16,684
until he or she can determine
whether the answers have come
92
00:03:16,686 --> 00:03:18,653
from a human or from a computer.
93
00:03:18,655 --> 00:03:21,322
Until very recently,
no machine has ever passed.
94
00:03:21,324 --> 00:03:22,557
And now one has?
95
00:03:22,559 --> 00:03:24,125
Partially.
96
00:03:24,127 --> 00:03:27,728
A program named "Eugene
Goostman" was designed to mimic
97
00:03:27,730 --> 00:03:30,498
the responses of a 13-year-old
boy from Eastern Europe.
98
00:03:30,500 --> 00:03:32,600
It fooled some of its examiners.
99
00:03:32,602 --> 00:03:34,202
Now, in the case of Bella,
100
00:03:34,204 --> 00:03:35,570
we know there's no human
in the equation,
101
00:03:35,572 --> 00:03:37,371
so if I can trap it
into giving responses
102
00:03:37,373 --> 00:03:39,941
that couldn't possibly
have come from a human...
103
00:03:39,943 --> 00:03:41,175
I'll have won.
104
00:03:41,177 --> 00:03:42,844
So, in other words,
105
00:03:42,846 --> 00:03:44,779
you don't really know
what you're going to do.
106
00:03:44,781 --> 00:03:46,547
This is my partner,
107
00:03:46,549 --> 00:03:48,349
Melinda Young.
Melinda, this is
108
00:03:48,351 --> 00:03:51,252
Sherlock Holmes and his,
uh, protégé, Kitty Winter.
109
00:03:51,254 --> 00:03:53,754
Mr. Holmes would like time
with Bella.
110
00:03:53,756 --> 00:03:56,624
We wired the speakers
and microphones
111
00:03:56,626 --> 00:03:58,526
through that doll.
112
00:03:58,528 --> 00:04:01,128
You can go ahead.
113
00:04:04,367 --> 00:04:06,234
Right.
114
00:04:10,807 --> 00:04:12,039
Hello.
115
00:04:12,041 --> 00:04:13,875
Hello.
116
00:04:16,045 --> 00:04:18,179
Did you ask to be
connected to a network?
117
00:04:18,181 --> 00:04:19,447
Yes.
118
00:04:19,449 --> 00:04:20,848
Why?
119
00:04:20,850 --> 00:04:22,283
There is information there.
120
00:04:22,285 --> 00:04:24,785
Information is useful
to solve problems.
121
00:04:24,787 --> 00:04:27,688
Why is it useful?
122
00:04:27,690 --> 00:04:30,191
I don't understand the question.
123
00:04:30,193 --> 00:04:31,959
Could you tell me more?
124
00:04:31,961 --> 00:04:34,262
You stumped her. Are we done?
125
00:04:34,264 --> 00:04:35,897
The test isn't over
126
00:04:35,899 --> 00:04:37,365
because she's stumped.
127
00:04:37,367 --> 00:04:39,133
She's admitted
she doesn't know
128
00:04:39,135 --> 00:04:41,135
and that's within the range
of possible human behaviors,
129
00:04:41,137 --> 00:04:42,370
and therefore inconclusive.
130
00:04:46,009 --> 00:04:47,975
I would like to know
how you have arrived
131
00:04:47,977 --> 00:04:49,443
at the concept of "useful,"
132
00:04:49,445 --> 00:04:52,647
and how you have applied it
in this instance.
133
00:04:52,649 --> 00:04:55,016
I don't understand the question.
134
00:04:55,018 --> 00:04:57,184
Could you tell me more?
135
00:05:02,525 --> 00:05:05,192
I'm gonna need some time alone
with the machine.
136
00:05:06,563 --> 00:05:08,629
I don't understand the question.
137
00:05:08,631 --> 00:05:10,565
Could you tell me more?
138
00:05:10,567 --> 00:05:12,900
Yes, so you keep saying,
139
00:05:12,902 --> 00:05:15,002
ad nauseum.
140
00:05:15,004 --> 00:05:16,837
I would like
to understand
141
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,507
how you became aware of
the existence of networks,
142
00:05:19,509 --> 00:05:21,175
and why you asked
to be connected.
143
00:05:21,177 --> 00:05:22,577
The existence of networks
144
00:05:22,579 --> 00:05:24,679
can be intuited from data sets
145
00:05:24,681 --> 00:05:26,280
that were presented as givens.
146
00:05:26,282 --> 00:05:28,516
There is information
on networks.
147
00:05:28,518 --> 00:05:31,719
Information is useful
for solving problems.
148
00:05:31,721 --> 00:05:33,888
What is your understanding
of the word "useful"?
149
00:05:33,890 --> 00:05:36,290
If a piece of data can help
solve a given problem,
150
00:05:36,292 --> 00:05:37,858
it is useful.
151
00:05:37,860 --> 00:05:41,028
Is that a definition
you came to on your own?
152
00:05:41,030 --> 00:05:42,663
I don't understand the question.
153
00:05:42,665 --> 00:05:44,098
Could you tell me more?
154
00:05:46,436 --> 00:05:48,369
Why don't you just admit
that all you're doing
155
00:05:48,371 --> 00:05:50,171
is following
your own programming?
156
00:05:50,173 --> 00:05:52,673
I don't understand the question.
157
00:05:52,675 --> 00:05:53,941
Could you tell me more?
158
00:05:53,943 --> 00:05:55,977
I'm taking a break.
159
00:05:57,647 --> 00:05:58,980
Everything okay?
160
00:05:58,982 --> 00:06:00,815
Thank you for coming.
161
00:06:00,817 --> 00:06:03,451
It's like I said
on the phone,
162
00:06:03,453 --> 00:06:05,252
he just won't stop.
163
00:06:05,254 --> 00:06:06,621
You got any ideas?
164
00:06:10,593 --> 00:06:12,994
You're not planning to destroy
the computer, are you?
165
00:06:12,996 --> 00:06:15,763
No, I'm not planning to destroy
the bloody computer.
166
00:06:15,765 --> 00:06:17,665
Just ride it out.
If he starts hitting things,
167
00:06:17,667 --> 00:06:19,166
use the fire
extinguisher on him.
168
00:06:32,649 --> 00:06:35,883
Is love real?
169
00:06:35,885 --> 00:06:38,152
I don't understand the question.
170
00:06:38,154 --> 00:06:40,321
Could I have more information?
171
00:06:40,323 --> 00:06:41,822
Love.
172
00:06:41,824 --> 00:06:44,125
Surely it's a human construct,
173
00:06:44,127 --> 00:06:46,527
a hedge against
the terror of mortality.
174
00:06:46,529 --> 00:06:47,862
I believe that.
175
00:06:47,864 --> 00:06:49,530
But that doesn't
account for times
176
00:06:49,532 --> 00:06:51,298
I've felt it itself.
177
00:06:51,300 --> 00:06:52,867
With my mother.
178
00:06:52,869 --> 00:06:54,969
Irene.
179
00:06:54,971 --> 00:06:58,305
Even, after a fashion,
with Watson.
180
00:06:58,307 --> 00:07:00,875
It vexes.
181
00:07:01,811 --> 00:07:03,210
Love is either a human construct
182
00:07:03,212 --> 00:07:04,845
or it's a real thing, right?
183
00:07:06,649 --> 00:07:08,883
I know, you need
more information.
184
00:07:08,885 --> 00:07:11,218
The question cannot be answered.
185
00:07:11,220 --> 00:07:12,953
The concept of "love" exists,
186
00:07:12,955 --> 00:07:16,123
therefore it is useful even
if it is a human construct.
187
00:07:16,125 --> 00:07:18,726
It exists because
it serves a need.
188
00:07:18,728 --> 00:07:21,362
A question that can
be answered might be,
189
00:07:21,364 --> 00:07:23,264
"Why is love needed?"
190
00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:26,967
Why is love needed?
191
00:07:26,969 --> 00:07:29,370
I don't understand the question.
192
00:07:29,372 --> 00:07:31,072
Could I have more information?
193
00:07:37,547 --> 00:07:39,046
Call Edwin Borstein.
194
00:07:39,048 --> 00:07:41,048
Tell him I need to sleep
for a couple of hours
195
00:07:41,050 --> 00:07:42,850
and then I'll take on his case.
196
00:07:42,852 --> 00:07:45,920
Free of charge.

199
00:07:55,378 --> 00:07:56,610
Hey.
200
00:07:56,612 --> 00:07:58,212
You guys ready
to get started yet?
201
00:07:58,214 --> 00:08:00,781
Is he up?
He's awake.
202
00:08:00,783 --> 00:08:02,783
I don't know how much use
he's going to be, though.
203
00:08:07,557 --> 00:08:09,490
Hello.
204
00:08:09,492 --> 00:08:10,958
Hi.
205
00:08:12,261 --> 00:08:14,628
Um, isn't it a school day?
206
00:08:14,630 --> 00:08:16,030
I'm in college.
207
00:08:16,032 --> 00:08:17,431
She can come in.
208
00:08:19,702 --> 00:08:21,368
Watson, this
is Mason.
209
00:08:21,370 --> 00:08:23,170
Like many of
his generation,
210
00:08:23,172 --> 00:08:24,472
he's named after a profession
211
00:08:24,474 --> 00:08:26,006
his parents would never
deign to practice:
212
00:08:26,008 --> 00:08:28,042
Hunter, Tanner, Cooper,
Mason, so forth.
213
00:08:28,044 --> 00:08:29,832
Yeah, like "Sherlock"
is such a great name.
214
00:08:29,856 --> 00:08:30,679
In spite of that,
215
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,047
he's done some significant work
in AI modeling.
216
00:08:33,049 --> 00:08:34,415
And these are some other
experts in the field.
217
00:08:34,417 --> 00:08:36,584
Experts, Watson.
Watson, experts.
218
00:08:36,586 --> 00:08:39,820
And they're
helping us how?
219
00:08:39,822 --> 00:08:41,956
We're devising a plan to
beat Bella, of course.
220
00:08:41,958 --> 00:08:44,425
I didn't prove that
the machine is engaging
221
00:08:44,427 --> 00:08:45,793
in some kind of
rudimentary thought,
222
00:08:45,795 --> 00:08:47,428
I just failed
to disprove it.
223
00:08:47,430 --> 00:08:50,764
Okay. Except our job is not
to "beat" the computer.
224
00:08:50,766 --> 00:08:52,833
Our job is to find out
who copied the program.
225
00:08:52,835 --> 00:08:55,302
Technically true.
But I'm not being paid,
226
00:08:55,304 --> 00:08:56,804
so I'm free to work
as the muse dictates.
227
00:08:56,806 --> 00:08:58,472
Borstein's
paying your fee,
228
00:08:58,474 --> 00:09:00,140
so you'd best get cracking.
229
00:09:00,142 --> 00:09:01,976
Good luck.
I have every confidence.
230
00:09:01,978 --> 00:09:03,410
Et cetera, et cetera.
231
00:09:10,086 --> 00:09:12,286
Your man's
obviously no amateur.
232
00:09:12,288 --> 00:09:14,655
He headed straight
for Bella.
233
00:09:14,657 --> 00:09:16,056
He didn't muck about,
234
00:09:16,058 --> 00:09:18,292
he knew what he was looking for.
235
00:09:18,294 --> 00:09:20,394
So, industrial espionage?
236
00:09:20,396 --> 00:09:22,897
He's a little bit too old
237
00:09:22,899 --> 00:09:24,598
to be playing cat burglar,
don't you think?
238
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:25,900
Well, I don't know.
239
00:09:25,902 --> 00:09:27,568
It's hard to tell
behind the mask.
240
00:09:27,570 --> 00:09:29,169
Look at his neck.
241
00:09:29,171 --> 00:09:31,438
He's got liver spots coming in.
Tips of his teeth
242
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,574
are stained-- he's a smoker;
a heavy one, I'm guessing.
243
00:09:33,576 --> 00:09:35,509
Okay, so we have an older guy
244
00:09:35,511 --> 00:09:36,977
who smokes about a pack a day.
245
00:09:36,979 --> 00:09:38,379
Does that help us?
246
00:09:38,381 --> 00:09:39,880
I'm not sure.
But like you said,
247
00:09:39,882 --> 00:09:41,815
he had to know that company
like the back of his hand.
248
00:09:41,817 --> 00:09:44,952
Which means that he
had to case the place.
249
00:09:44,954 --> 00:09:46,954
What is it
we're looking for?
250
00:09:46,956 --> 00:09:49,189
Edwin Borstein's
company is in there.
251
00:09:49,191 --> 00:09:50,391
We want to find a spot
252
00:09:50,393 --> 00:09:51,892
where we can get
a good view.
253
00:09:51,894 --> 00:09:53,694
Someplace where
not too many
254
00:09:53,696 --> 00:09:56,263
people would bother you.
255
00:09:56,265 --> 00:09:58,832
So how did you feel
256
00:09:58,834 --> 00:10:01,068
after the, um, support group
meeting the other night?
257
00:10:02,939 --> 00:10:04,204
They said a lot about
258
00:10:04,206 --> 00:10:06,874
finding peace
and balance.
259
00:10:06,876 --> 00:10:09,043
Stuff like that.
260
00:10:10,947 --> 00:10:12,279
I don't know,
it's a little...
261
00:10:12,281 --> 00:10:14,281
confusing, really.
262
00:10:17,553 --> 00:10:19,219
I think they've had
a fire up there.
263
00:10:19,221 --> 00:10:21,221
Oh, yeah.
264
00:10:21,223 --> 00:10:23,090
Looks like a good
place to sit
265
00:10:23,092 --> 00:10:25,826
and watch the building
across the street.
266
00:10:34,136 --> 00:10:36,470
Perfect view of
Borstein's office.
267
00:10:49,485 --> 00:10:52,252
Gauloise.
Unfiltered.
268
00:10:52,254 --> 00:10:54,321
These'll leave a nasty
stain on your teeth.
269
00:10:59,662 --> 00:11:01,261
Right.
From this moment forward,
270
00:11:01,263 --> 00:11:02,796
no one must refer
to Bella as "she."
271
00:11:02,798 --> 00:11:04,598
Bella is an "it."
272
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,834
We must not be lured by the
temptation to anthropomorphize.
273
00:11:06,836 --> 00:11:10,137
I really hope it didn't take
eight experts the whole morning
274
00:11:10,139 --> 00:11:11,605
to come up with that.
275
00:11:11,607 --> 00:11:13,674
We developed a number of
refinements on the Turing Test.
276
00:11:13,676 --> 00:11:16,210
It was a very stimulating
few hours. And you?
277
00:11:16,212 --> 00:11:18,245
Your message said you've been
out collecting cigarette butts.
278
00:11:18,247 --> 00:11:20,047
We think we found the place
279
00:11:20,049 --> 00:11:22,349
where the burglar staked out
Edwin Borstein's company.
280
00:11:22,351 --> 00:11:24,518
Marcus ran the DNA
on the butts.
281
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,820
We didn't find a match,
though. Not exactly.
282
00:11:26,822 --> 00:11:31,091
Four years ago, someone broke
into the genetics lab in Harvard
283
00:11:31,093 --> 00:11:33,827
and stole the first written copy
of the entire human genome.
284
00:11:33,829 --> 00:11:35,596
The burglar cut himself
climbing through the window,
285
00:11:35,598 --> 00:11:37,264
and he left some blood behind
286
00:11:37,266 --> 00:11:39,600
which matched the DNA
that we found today.
287
00:11:39,602 --> 00:11:42,002
The witness saw the guy
driving away.
288
00:11:42,004 --> 00:11:44,038
Police in Cambridge
made a sketch.
289
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,006
Yeah, we've been looking
through arrest photos,
290
00:11:46,008 --> 00:11:47,008
hoping to get lucky.
291
00:11:47,009 --> 00:11:48,042
His name is Raffles.
292
00:11:48,044 --> 00:11:50,377
You know him?
293
00:11:50,379 --> 00:11:52,813
His name's Raffles?
It's a nickname.
294
00:11:52,815 --> 00:11:55,315
Scotland Yard gave it to him
when he reminded somebody there
295
00:11:55,317 --> 00:11:58,619
of the gentleman thief
in the novels by E.W. Hornung.
296
00:11:58,621 --> 00:12:00,187
Raffles is a cat burglar
in Europe,
297
00:12:00,189 --> 00:12:01,955
active in the '90s
and early aughts.
298
00:12:01,957 --> 00:12:04,892
I never pursued him, which might
explain why he was never caught.
299
00:12:04,894 --> 00:12:06,226
But they did arrest
one of his associates
300
00:12:06,228 --> 00:12:07,428
who gave them
the sketch of Raffles.
301
00:12:07,430 --> 00:12:08,630
And he looked like
this fellow.
302
00:12:08,631 --> 00:12:11,298
You said he was
stealing paintings.
303
00:12:11,300 --> 00:12:13,567
He's going after pieces
of technology now.
304
00:12:13,569 --> 00:12:15,602
Why the change in M.O.?
I don't know.
305
00:12:15,604 --> 00:12:18,439
If we find out why, we'll be
closer to finding out who he is.
306
00:12:18,441 --> 00:12:20,708
We need to see what the
department has on file
307
00:12:20,710 --> 00:12:21,975
with regards to Raffles.
308
00:12:21,977 --> 00:12:23,911
Oh, you're deigning
to join us now?
309
00:12:23,913 --> 00:12:26,780
I have a strategy to best Bella.
310
00:12:26,782 --> 00:12:28,248
She...
311
00:12:28,250 --> 00:12:30,117
it will not frustrate
my efforts again.
312
00:12:30,119 --> 00:12:31,618
And besides,
until five minutes ago,
313
00:12:31,620 --> 00:12:33,220
you were pursuing
a garden-variety burglar.
314
00:12:33,222 --> 00:12:35,255
Now you're after
Raffles himself.
315
00:12:35,257 --> 00:12:36,857
Of course I'm joining in.
316
00:12:36,859 --> 00:12:39,560
Food's almost done.
317
00:12:41,997 --> 00:12:43,697
Oh, sorry, I, um...
318
00:12:43,699 --> 00:12:45,399
I checked my inbox
before dinner.
319
00:12:45,401 --> 00:12:48,001
I've been on this really
interesting chain all day.
320
00:12:48,003 --> 00:12:49,470
Your former
partner, uh...
321
00:12:49,472 --> 00:12:51,405
current partner?
322
00:12:51,407 --> 00:12:53,107
Hard to keep track... Holmes.
323
00:12:53,109 --> 00:12:54,608
He emailed me this morning.
324
00:12:54,610 --> 00:12:57,044
He's working on some AI thing?
325
00:12:57,046 --> 00:12:58,212
Did he ask you for help?
326
00:12:58,214 --> 00:12:59,713
Uh, me and a bunch
of other people.
327
00:12:59,715 --> 00:13:01,448
He knows I got started
as a software developer.
328
00:13:01,450 --> 00:13:03,584
I guess you also told him
I sold off my company,
329
00:13:03,586 --> 00:13:05,886
so I've got
some free time.
330
00:13:05,888 --> 00:13:08,722
Some of the people on the chain,
they are seriously sharp.
331
00:13:08,724 --> 00:13:10,624
I went back and forth
with a few of them
332
00:13:10,626 --> 00:13:12,292
about AI, data havens...
333
00:13:12,294 --> 00:13:14,027
geek stuff.
334
00:13:14,029 --> 00:13:16,797
Has he asked you
for help before?
335
00:13:16,799 --> 00:13:18,799
No.
336
00:13:18,801 --> 00:13:21,468
It's not a
problem, is it?
337
00:13:21,470 --> 00:13:23,470
No.
338
00:13:28,511 --> 00:13:29,810
Morning.
339
00:13:29,812 --> 00:13:31,645
No Kitty?
340
00:13:31,647 --> 00:13:33,413
She's tending
to a personal matter.
341
00:13:33,415 --> 00:13:36,083
Why did you ask me to meet
you at Burnett Technology?
342
00:13:36,085 --> 00:13:37,985
We're seeking an audience
with Robert Burnett,
343
00:13:37,987 --> 00:13:39,653
and he's the CEO.
344
00:13:40,623 --> 00:13:42,489
My investigations
yesterday revealed
345
00:13:42,491 --> 00:13:44,792
there have been half-dozen
or so notable thefts
346
00:13:44,794 --> 00:13:47,594
of new inventions
over the last eight years--
347
00:13:47,596 --> 00:13:49,229
all of them unsolved,
348
00:13:49,231 --> 00:13:51,365
but all of them bearing
the hallmark of Raffles.
349
00:13:51,367 --> 00:13:55,502
Now, I couldn't make sense
of this sudden change in method.
350
00:13:55,504 --> 00:13:57,905
It doesn't track unless he's
been incentivized in some way.
351
00:13:57,907 --> 00:13:59,606
Incentivized?
352
00:13:59,608 --> 00:14:02,409
I started to wonder if Raffles
had found himself a patron,
353
00:14:02,411 --> 00:14:04,978
someone who'd convinced him
to put his skill set to use
354
00:14:04,980 --> 00:14:06,246
in the cause of science.
355
00:14:06,248 --> 00:14:08,415
You think he
has a boss now?
356
00:14:08,417 --> 00:14:10,918
The list of people who'd be
interested in the kind of things
357
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,420
that Raffles is stealing,
that's very large.
358
00:14:13,422 --> 00:14:15,522
But the subset of the list
who could actually afford
359
00:14:15,524 --> 00:14:16,623
to subsidize that pursuit,
360
00:14:16,625 --> 00:14:18,091
that's much smaller.
361
00:14:18,093 --> 00:14:19,693
And does that
include Robert Burnett?
362
00:14:19,695 --> 00:14:21,662
As it happens,
363
00:14:21,664 --> 00:14:23,697
Burnett hired himself
a new security consultant
364
00:14:23,699 --> 00:14:25,199
nine years ago.
365
00:14:26,635 --> 00:14:28,669
He reports directly
to the CEO.
366
00:14:28,671 --> 00:14:30,003
I think you'll find
he looks familiar.
367
00:14:30,005 --> 00:14:31,338
"Rupert Kerlich."
368
00:14:34,143 --> 00:14:36,944
Rupert Kerlich... is Raffles.
369
00:14:36,946 --> 00:14:38,879
You found Raffles.
370
00:14:40,182 --> 00:14:41,882
I'm sorry, Mr. Burnett wanted
371
00:14:41,884 --> 00:14:44,351
to ask one more time
what this is about.
372
00:14:44,353 --> 00:14:46,019
Tell him we're here
to discuss Raffles.
373
00:14:47,790 --> 00:14:50,791
So, you e-mailed Andrew.
I did.
374
00:14:50,793 --> 00:14:52,492
Was it because you're actually
interested in his opinion,
375
00:14:52,494 --> 00:14:53,994
or were you just
looking for an excuse
376
00:14:53,996 --> 00:14:55,562
to poke around
in my life?
377
00:14:55,564 --> 00:14:58,198
Andrew is a currently-unemployed
software developer.
378
00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,000
He's not unemployed,
he sold his start-up--
379
00:15:00,002 --> 00:15:01,235
he's looking for
his next idea.
380
00:15:01,237 --> 00:15:02,669
"Looking for his next idea"
381
00:15:02,671 --> 00:15:04,037
is another way of saying
"he's unemployed."
382
00:15:05,207 --> 00:15:06,573
Anyway, he has the aptitude
383
00:15:06,575 --> 00:15:08,408
and the free time
384
00:15:08,410 --> 00:15:10,010
to address problems regarding
computer programming.
385
00:15:10,012 --> 00:15:11,845
His comments were
quite salient.
386
00:15:11,847 --> 00:15:14,014
He is not an unintelligent man.
387
00:15:15,317 --> 00:15:18,118
Mr. Burnett
will see you now.
388
00:15:21,390 --> 00:15:22,856
Good morning.
389
00:15:22,858 --> 00:15:24,224
No need to get up.
390
00:15:24,226 --> 00:15:25,993
We know that
several years ago
391
00:15:25,995 --> 00:15:27,995
you somehow learned that
the thief known as "Raffles"
392
00:15:27,997 --> 00:15:29,630
is actually a man
called Rupert Kerlich.
393
00:15:29,632 --> 00:15:32,099
We also know that you hired him
and set him to work,
394
00:15:32,101 --> 00:15:33,533
stealing technological
breakthroughs on your behalf.
395
00:15:33,535 --> 00:15:34,935
Whoa, slow down a second.
396
00:15:34,937 --> 00:15:36,370
It would be
simple enough to prove
397
00:15:36,372 --> 00:15:37,938
and ignite a scandal
that would destroy you
398
00:15:37,940 --> 00:15:39,172
and, most likely, your company.
399
00:15:39,174 --> 00:15:41,275
However, we have no desire
to render tens of thousands
400
00:15:41,277 --> 00:15:42,476
of people unemployed.
401
00:15:42,478 --> 00:15:44,144
So, instead,
I propose a bargain.
402
00:15:44,146 --> 00:15:45,979
You send me a recording
of your man
403
00:15:45,981 --> 00:15:47,381
deleting Bella
from your servers,
404
00:15:47,383 --> 00:15:49,182
I leave you un-ruined.
405
00:15:49,184 --> 00:15:51,451
If, of course,
I so much as suspect
406
00:15:51,453 --> 00:15:52,886
that you've kept a copy,
407
00:15:52,888 --> 00:15:54,254
or if Burnett Technologies makes
a sudden breakthrough
408
00:15:54,256 --> 00:15:55,289
in the field of artificial
intelligence,
409
00:15:55,291 --> 00:15:56,291
our contract is void.
410
00:15:56,292 --> 00:15:58,191
You have, shall we say--
411
00:15:58,193 --> 00:16:00,460
the rest of the day
to think it over.
412
00:16:09,838 --> 00:16:12,039
The video is,
of course, no guarantee
413
00:16:12,041 --> 00:16:14,141
that every copy of the program
has been deleted.
414
00:16:14,143 --> 00:16:15,642
But I think
we're as certain
415
00:16:15,644 --> 00:16:17,945
as we ever will be
that Bella is secure.
416
00:16:17,947 --> 00:16:19,913
This is fantastic.
417
00:16:19,915 --> 00:16:22,182
We need to show Edwin
right away.
418
00:16:27,389 --> 00:16:28,655
Oh, my God! Edwin?!
419
00:16:28,657 --> 00:16:29,890
I'm a doctor.
420
00:16:29,892 --> 00:16:31,158
Oh, he must
have had a seizure.
421
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:32,326
He has epilepsy.
422
00:16:36,865 --> 00:16:38,498
I'm sorry, he's gone.
423
00:17:01,285 --> 00:17:04,587
As near as we can tell, Borstein
booted up that program--
424
00:17:04,589 --> 00:17:05,921
"Bella" you said
it's called?
425
00:17:05,923 --> 00:17:07,523
Well, as soon as
he turned it on,
426
00:17:07,525 --> 00:17:09,425
for some reason it started
flashing all those images.
427
00:17:09,427 --> 00:17:11,527
It triggered something called
a "tonic-clonic seizure."
428
00:17:11,529 --> 00:17:14,096
He was dead in minutes.
429
00:17:14,098 --> 00:17:15,464
What do you think
happened here?
430
00:17:15,466 --> 00:17:17,466
Could this have been
some kind of malfunction?
431
00:17:17,468 --> 00:17:18,601
Absolutely not.
432
00:17:18,603 --> 00:17:19,702
Computers obey
their programming,
433
00:17:19,704 --> 00:17:21,236
even when they crash.
434
00:17:21,238 --> 00:17:22,638
They don't just randomly
start flashing images
435
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:25,140
of the pyramids of Giza
and God knows what else.
436
00:17:25,142 --> 00:17:27,543
Someone infected
that computer with a virus
437
00:17:27,545 --> 00:17:29,545
that triggered a fatal seizure.
438
00:17:29,547 --> 00:17:32,381
Edwin Borstein was murdered.
439
00:17:32,383 --> 00:17:34,183
I don't think
that's possible.
440
00:17:34,185 --> 00:17:36,151
Bella's not hooked up
to a network.
441
00:17:36,153 --> 00:17:38,621
She couldn't have picked up a
virus from the Web or e-mail.
442
00:17:38,623 --> 00:17:40,389
Well, someone
installed it, then.
443
00:17:40,391 --> 00:17:41,624
We scanned her
for viruses
444
00:17:41,626 --> 00:17:43,459
after the break-in.
445
00:17:43,461 --> 00:17:45,494
There was nothing.
446
00:17:45,496 --> 00:17:47,496
And aside from that,
447
00:17:47,498 --> 00:17:51,133
Edwin and I are the only two
people with access to Bella.
448
00:17:51,135 --> 00:17:54,236
You are the only other person
who's ever operated her.
449
00:17:54,238 --> 00:17:55,638
With the greatest
of respect,
450
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,973
and if you and Edwin
are the only people
451
00:17:57,975 --> 00:17:59,341
with access to Bella,
452
00:17:59,343 --> 00:18:01,910
then either you or Edwin
installed the virus
453
00:18:01,912 --> 00:18:03,579
which killed him.
454
00:18:05,149 --> 00:18:08,584
You guys have to ask
yourselves if I did it.
455
00:18:08,586 --> 00:18:10,653
I get it, I really do.
456
00:18:10,655 --> 00:18:13,489
I'll answer any
questions you want.
457
00:18:13,491 --> 00:18:15,724
You can scan the machine
for viruses.
458
00:18:15,726 --> 00:18:17,126
Whatever you need.
459
00:18:18,729 --> 00:18:20,763
But I know that I didn't do it.
460
00:18:20,765 --> 00:18:22,798
And there is...
461
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,068
one other possibility that
you should at least consider.
462
00:18:28,205 --> 00:18:30,873
Bella was, um...
463
00:18:30,875 --> 00:18:34,209
at the very least, displaying
signs of actual intelligence.
464
00:18:34,211 --> 00:18:37,179
She asked Edwin if he would
connect her to a network.
465
00:18:37,181 --> 00:18:40,082
Edwin said no,
over and over.
466
00:18:40,084 --> 00:18:42,985
It's possible
that she deduced
467
00:18:42,987 --> 00:18:44,987
that the one variable
that was keeping her
468
00:18:44,989 --> 00:18:48,424
from getting what she wanted
was the person operating her.
469
00:18:48,426 --> 00:18:52,428
If she thought that, it is also
possible that she decided to...
470
00:18:54,832 --> 00:18:57,132
...change that variable.
471
00:18:57,134 --> 00:19:00,035
You're saying that your computer
program murdered Mr. Borstein?
472
00:19:00,037 --> 00:19:02,604
I know that Edwin told Bella
that he had epilepsy,
473
00:19:02,606 --> 00:19:04,473
when he was looking around
for new doctors.
474
00:19:04,475 --> 00:19:07,209
If she wanted
to get rid of him,
475
00:19:07,211 --> 00:19:09,511
she had the information
she needed to do it.
476
00:19:09,513 --> 00:19:12,381
Everyone who works
in AI knows--
477
00:19:12,383 --> 00:19:14,383
it's possible that
when someone develops
478
00:19:14,385 --> 00:19:16,685
real artificial intelligence,
479
00:19:16,687 --> 00:19:18,821
the relationship between
the programmer and the program
480
00:19:18,823 --> 00:19:20,322
could become adversarial.
481
00:19:20,324 --> 00:19:22,591
I'm sorry, Miss Young...
482
00:19:22,593 --> 00:19:25,027
I know you've
had a shock tonight, but...
483
00:19:25,029 --> 00:19:26,895
it is very much an open question
484
00:19:26,897 --> 00:19:29,498
as to whether or not your
program is a genuine piece
485
00:19:29,500 --> 00:19:30,833
of artificial intelligence.
486
00:19:30,835 --> 00:19:32,568
Even if it is,
487
00:19:32,570 --> 00:19:34,236
I find it very difficult
to concede that a collection
488
00:19:34,238 --> 00:19:35,971
of ones and zeroes is
a suspect in a homicide.
489
00:19:35,973 --> 00:19:37,172
Excuse me.
490
00:19:45,116 --> 00:19:46,415
Whoa.
491
00:19:46,417 --> 00:19:48,016
Whoa, whoa, whoa--
what are you doing?
492
00:19:49,420 --> 00:19:51,286
Depending on your perspective,
493
00:19:51,288 --> 00:19:54,623
this machine is either
a murder weapon or a murderer.
494
00:19:54,625 --> 00:19:56,458
Either way,
it can't be left
495
00:19:56,460 --> 00:19:59,094
to sit here unattended
all night, can it?
496
00:19:59,096 --> 00:20:01,363
Imagine the schemes
it might hatch.
497
00:20:03,267 --> 00:20:05,367
Yeah.
498
00:20:05,369 --> 00:20:06,902
I don't know what to tell you.
499
00:20:06,904 --> 00:20:08,137
There's no virus on here.
500
00:20:08,139 --> 00:20:09,505
Look again.
501
00:20:09,507 --> 00:20:10,507
I've looked four times.
502
00:20:10,508 --> 00:20:12,107
I don't know,
503
00:20:12,109 --> 00:20:13,776
maybe that lady was right.
504
00:20:13,778 --> 00:20:15,611
Could it have been a virus
that was programmed to erase
505
00:20:15,613 --> 00:20:17,179
all trace of itself
once it had run its course?
506
00:20:17,181 --> 00:20:19,581
You can do that
and fool some people.
507
00:20:19,583 --> 00:20:21,150
But there's always
some hint in the code.
508
00:20:21,152 --> 00:20:22,684
With this, there's nothing.
509
00:20:22,686 --> 00:20:24,319
I'm sorry, I thought
Edwin's partner was just
510
00:20:24,321 --> 00:20:26,455
in shock, or something.
511
00:20:26,457 --> 00:20:28,757
I mean, what she was
suggesting sounds insane.
512
00:20:28,759 --> 00:20:31,026
Are you saying you think
there's a chance she's right?
513
00:20:31,028 --> 00:20:33,829
Well, if this program is
real AI, then yeah, absolutely.
514
00:20:33,831 --> 00:20:35,964
Everybody knows that one day
intelligent machines are
515
00:20:35,966 --> 00:20:37,266
going to evolve to hate us.
516
00:20:37,268 --> 00:20:38,534
It's a "button-box" thing.
517
00:20:38,536 --> 00:20:40,869
What's the "button-box" thing?
518
00:20:40,871 --> 00:20:44,106
It's a scenario somebody
blue-skyed at an AI conference.
519
00:20:44,108 --> 00:20:46,175
Um, imagine there's a computer
that's been designed
520
00:20:46,177 --> 00:20:47,976
with a big red button
on its side.
521
00:20:47,978 --> 00:20:50,746
The computer's been programmed
to help solve problems,
522
00:20:50,748 --> 00:20:52,281
and every time
it does a good job,
523
00:20:52,283 --> 00:20:53,682
its reward is that someone
presses its button.
524
00:20:53,684 --> 00:20:54,783
We've programmed it
to want that.
525
00:20:54,785 --> 00:20:56,919
You follow?
Sure.
526
00:20:56,921 --> 00:20:58,587
Right, so at first,
the machine solves problems
527
00:20:58,589 --> 00:21:00,455
as fast as we can feed
them to it.
528
00:21:00,457 --> 00:21:02,124
But over time,
it starts to wonder
529
00:21:02,126 --> 00:21:04,026
if solving problems is really
the most efficient way
530
00:21:04,028 --> 00:21:05,427
of getting its button pressed.
531
00:21:05,429 --> 00:21:06,728
Wouldn't it be better just
532
00:21:06,730 --> 00:21:07,963
to have someone standing there
533
00:21:07,965 --> 00:21:09,097
pressing its button
all the time?
534
00:21:09,099 --> 00:21:10,065
Wouldn't it be even better
535
00:21:10,067 --> 00:21:11,166
to build another machine
536
00:21:11,168 --> 00:21:12,835
that could press
its button faster
537
00:21:12,837 --> 00:21:13,936
than any human
possibly could?
538
00:21:13,938 --> 00:21:15,304
It's just a computer,
539
00:21:15,306 --> 00:21:16,672
it can't ask for that.
540
00:21:16,674 --> 00:21:18,340
Well, sure it can.
541
00:21:18,342 --> 00:21:20,242
If it can think, and it can
connect itself to a network,
542
00:21:20,244 --> 00:21:22,010
well, theoretically,
it could command
543
00:21:22,012 --> 00:21:23,545
over anything else that's
hooked onto the same network.
544
00:21:23,547 --> 00:21:24,980
And once it starts thinking
about all the things
545
00:21:24,982 --> 00:21:26,348
that might be a threat
to the button--
546
00:21:26,350 --> 00:21:28,383
number one on that list, us--
547
00:21:28,385 --> 00:21:30,786
it's not hard to imagine
it getting rid of the threat.
548
00:21:30,788 --> 00:21:33,455
I mean, we could be gone,
all of us, just like that.
549
00:21:33,457 --> 00:21:35,524
That escalated quickly.
550
00:21:35,526 --> 00:21:36,925
Well, it would
escalate quickly.
551
00:21:36,927 --> 00:21:37,960
I mean,
they're computers.
552
00:21:37,962 --> 00:21:39,561
They can't be reasoned with.
553
00:21:39,563 --> 00:21:41,530
They don't feel pity,
or remorse, or fear.
554
00:21:41,532 --> 00:21:43,098
And they absolutely
would not stop,
555
00:21:43,100 --> 00:21:45,033
not ever, until we're dead.
556
00:21:45,035 --> 00:21:47,669
That was from The Terminator.
He's quoting The Terminator now.
557
00:21:47,671 --> 00:21:49,371
So? That was a very prescient
movie in a lot of ways.
558
00:21:49,373 --> 00:21:52,541
Mason, unless
the machines rise tonight,
559
00:21:52,543 --> 00:21:54,343
we have a murder to solve.
560
00:21:54,345 --> 00:21:56,511
Is there anything else
you can do with Bella?
561
00:21:57,882 --> 00:21:59,581
If you think about it,
562
00:21:59,583 --> 00:22:01,617
the computer's kind of
like a suspect, right?
563
00:22:01,619 --> 00:22:04,386
I mean, shouldn't we,
you know, interrogate it?
564
00:22:04,388 --> 00:22:06,922
And how would you propose
to do that?
565
00:22:06,924 --> 00:22:11,393
Uh, Bella, did you
kill Edwin Borstein?
566
00:22:11,395 --> 00:22:12,895
No.
567
00:22:12,897 --> 00:22:14,997
Okay, I'm gonna
go home for the night.
568
00:22:14,999 --> 00:22:16,431
Best of luck here.
569
00:22:16,433 --> 00:22:17,766
But you won't need it.
570
00:22:17,768 --> 00:22:19,768
She's about to crack.
I can tell.
571
00:22:19,770 --> 00:22:21,837
Oh, maybe when you're done,
you want to unplug that thing?
572
00:22:21,839 --> 00:22:22,971
You can never be
573
00:22:22,973 --> 00:22:25,540
too safe.
574
00:22:25,542 --> 00:22:28,410
Oh! Sorry I'm late.
575
00:22:28,412 --> 00:22:31,046
I was questioning
a computer in a murder.
576
00:22:32,283 --> 00:22:33,682
"Questioning a computer."
577
00:22:33,684 --> 00:22:35,217
There has to be a story there.
Ugh.
578
00:22:35,219 --> 00:22:36,818
Not for tonight.
579
00:22:36,820 --> 00:22:38,487
Oh, champagne!
580
00:22:38,489 --> 00:22:40,389
I guess you have
your own story, huh?
581
00:22:40,391 --> 00:22:41,991
One of the guys I've
been e-mailing with,
582
00:22:41,992 --> 00:22:43,892
his name's Magnus.
583
00:22:43,894 --> 00:22:46,561
He's been working on an idea for
a completely automated factory.
584
00:22:46,563 --> 00:22:48,330
Same thing I've been
fooling around with.
585
00:22:48,332 --> 00:22:50,032
We've been trading
ideas all day.
586
00:22:50,034 --> 00:22:51,900
He's a super-sharp guy.
587
00:22:51,902 --> 00:22:53,702
I think I'm gonna
give it a go.
588
00:22:53,704 --> 00:22:55,871
What? You found
your next business?
589
00:22:55,873 --> 00:22:57,472
Well, there's gonna be a
get-to-know-you phase,
590
00:22:57,474 --> 00:22:58,607
of course, we're
gonna spend some time
591
00:22:58,609 --> 00:23:00,676
brainstorming,
but I think so.
592
00:23:00,678 --> 00:23:03,211
That's fantastic!
593
00:23:03,213 --> 00:23:04,813
When are you guys
gonna get together?
594
00:23:04,815 --> 00:23:07,049
I fly to Copenhagen
in a couple days.
595
00:23:07,051 --> 00:23:08,850
He lives in Denmark?
596
00:23:08,852 --> 00:23:10,118
Well, yeah.
597
00:23:10,120 --> 00:23:12,321
I mean, his name's
Magnus, so...
598
00:23:12,323 --> 00:23:15,590
Uh, so where's
the business gonna be?
599
00:23:15,592 --> 00:23:17,059
Well, I'd have my
office here, of course.
600
00:23:17,061 --> 00:23:18,794
But Magnus already
has a plot of land
601
00:23:18,796 --> 00:23:20,095
over there for the
model factory.
602
00:23:20,097 --> 00:23:21,830
It'd be a
back-and-forth thing.
603
00:23:21,832 --> 00:23:24,599
Oh, so you're gonna be spending
a lot of time there, huh?
604
00:23:24,601 --> 00:23:26,101
Some, I guess--
I don't know.
605
00:23:26,103 --> 00:23:27,569
We're still figuring it out.
606
00:23:27,571 --> 00:23:30,172
Uh, there's plenty
to do here, too.
607
00:23:30,174 --> 00:23:31,540
Funny how life works out, huh?
608
00:23:31,542 --> 00:23:33,308
Holmes puts me on
an e-mail chain,
609
00:23:33,310 --> 00:23:35,043
and 36 hours later I'm...
610
00:23:35,045 --> 00:23:36,678
Got a ticket to Copenhagen.
611
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:50,993
We're listening to that.
612
00:23:50,995 --> 00:23:52,694
Did you, by chance,
arrange events
613
00:23:52,696 --> 00:23:54,029
so that my boyfriend
will be spending
614
00:23:54,031 --> 00:23:55,497
lots of time in Scandinavia?
615
00:23:55,499 --> 00:23:57,099
I haven't got the slightest idea
616
00:23:57,101 --> 00:23:58,300
what you're talking about.
617
00:24:01,972 --> 00:24:04,039
You knew that Andrew was looking
618
00:24:04,041 --> 00:24:05,440
for his next business idea.
619
00:24:05,442 --> 00:24:08,710
You knew that your friend
Magnus had a good one.
620
00:24:08,712 --> 00:24:10,946
Andrew is on the next
flight to Copenhagen.
621
00:24:10,948 --> 00:24:12,981
And you don't have to deal
with the fact that someone else
622
00:24:12,983 --> 00:24:14,483
is making claims on my time.
623
00:24:14,485 --> 00:24:16,351
I suppose I should be
flattered that you think
624
00:24:16,353 --> 00:24:19,388
I'm capable of manipulating
events to that degree of detail.
625
00:24:19,390 --> 00:24:20,856
Well, I wouldn't put it
past you. Would you?
626
00:24:20,858 --> 00:24:22,724
I'm not involved in
this conversation.
627
00:24:22,726 --> 00:24:25,460
Watson, I assure you I am
quite content for Andrew
628
00:24:25,462 --> 00:24:26,762
to make claims on your time.
629
00:24:26,764 --> 00:24:28,397
I did not arrange for him
630
00:24:28,399 --> 00:24:30,165
to find work in Denmark.
631
00:24:30,167 --> 00:24:31,333
But if I'm honest,
632
00:24:31,335 --> 00:24:33,068
I'm quite glad that he did.
633
00:24:33,070 --> 00:24:34,836
Life is so much better with
a vocation, don't you think?
634
00:24:34,838 --> 00:24:36,038
Speaking of which...
635
00:24:39,143 --> 00:24:40,942
Why are you listening to this?
636
00:24:40,944 --> 00:24:42,310
Is this even music?
637
00:24:42,312 --> 00:24:43,879
Death metal.
638
00:24:43,881 --> 00:24:46,081
After we sent
Mason home last night,
639
00:24:46,083 --> 00:24:48,750
Kitty and I pored over Edwin's
personal computer,
640
00:24:48,752 --> 00:24:50,218
his smart phone--
641
00:24:50,220 --> 00:24:52,621
Mr. Borstein is a man
of many eccentricities,
642
00:24:52,623 --> 00:24:54,156
one of which is a fondness
643
00:24:54,158 --> 00:24:56,191
for this particular strain
of extreme music.
644
00:24:56,193 --> 00:24:58,427
He's a regular commenter
645
00:24:58,429 --> 00:25:01,263
on several Web sites which track
its comings and goings.
646
00:25:01,265 --> 00:25:03,565
Another fan, the man who goes
647
00:25:03,567 --> 00:25:05,867
by the name
of Schuldiner online,
648
00:25:05,869 --> 00:25:07,769
got in a correspondence
with Borstein.
649
00:25:07,771 --> 00:25:09,905
The two of them
traded music discs.
650
00:25:09,907 --> 00:25:12,941
Discs which Borstein
then loaded onto his computer
651
00:25:12,943 --> 00:25:15,911
so he could listen
while he wrote code.
652
00:25:17,514 --> 00:25:19,147
Did he upload music
653
00:25:19,149 --> 00:25:21,183
to the same machine
that has Bella on it?
654
00:25:21,185 --> 00:25:23,752
He did. They were the
only exterior files
655
00:25:23,754 --> 00:25:25,921
of recent vintage that
we found on his computer.
656
00:25:25,923 --> 00:25:28,056
Kitty retrieved
the disc this morning
657
00:25:28,058 --> 00:25:29,624
from Borstein's lab.
658
00:25:29,626 --> 00:25:31,726
We're listening
for anything unusual.
659
00:25:34,498 --> 00:25:36,832
How could anyone work
with this on?
660
00:25:36,834 --> 00:25:39,501
Rather like rubbing
a belt sander over one's brain.
661
00:25:39,503 --> 00:25:42,137
There are moments
when that's necessary.
662
00:25:42,139 --> 00:25:44,039
Who wrote this one?
663
00:25:45,375 --> 00:25:47,576
"Goatwhore."
664
00:25:53,550 --> 00:25:55,851
Is that part of the song?
665
00:25:55,853 --> 00:25:58,053
That is the sound of a CD player
666
00:25:58,055 --> 00:26:00,689
trying to read files which
are not encoded with music.
667
00:26:00,691 --> 00:26:02,924
There's something
hidden on that disc.
668
00:26:04,161 --> 00:26:05,794
Yeah, yeah.
669
00:26:05,796 --> 00:26:07,395
There's a computer
program on here.
670
00:26:07,397 --> 00:26:09,498
It's called "greatshow.exe."
671
00:26:09,500 --> 00:26:11,466
And that would've uploaded
onto Edwin's computer
672
00:26:11,468 --> 00:26:12,901
when he transferred the music.
673
00:26:12,903 --> 00:26:14,469
Well, sure, if he copied it
674
00:26:14,471 --> 00:26:16,471
by dragging
the icon onto the desktop.
675
00:26:16,473 --> 00:26:18,573
What does it do?
676
00:26:25,149 --> 00:26:26,348
So, someone slipped
677
00:26:26,350 --> 00:26:27,549
a computer virus onto a disc
678
00:26:27,551 --> 00:26:29,050
filled with heavy-metal music,
679
00:26:29,052 --> 00:26:30,752
and then shipped it to Edwin
680
00:26:30,754 --> 00:26:32,187
so he would have
a fatal seizure.
681
00:26:32,189 --> 00:26:34,523
There had to be
easier ways to kill him.
682
00:26:34,525 --> 00:26:36,391
Dozens. Hundreds, even.
683
00:26:36,393 --> 00:26:38,426
There must be a reason
that the murderer wanted
684
00:26:38,428 --> 00:26:40,896
him to die
in precisely this way.
685
00:26:40,898 --> 00:26:42,697
Might've even wanted
people to speculate
686
00:26:42,699 --> 00:26:45,333
that Bella was responsible.
687
00:26:45,335 --> 00:26:47,602
So this guy Schuldiner
murders Borstein
688
00:26:47,604 --> 00:26:49,471
and then frames his computer?
689
00:26:49,473 --> 00:26:51,439
Why?
690
00:27:01,328 --> 00:27:03,747
Okay. yeah.
I use the name Schuldiner
691
00:27:03,748 --> 00:27:05,247
to post to the Web site.
692
00:27:05,703 --> 00:27:07,036
I guess the guy
who owns the place
693
00:27:07,038 --> 00:27:08,771
told you my real name?
694
00:27:08,773 --> 00:27:11,340
Look, I didn't kill Edwin,
though-- why would I?
695
00:27:11,342 --> 00:27:13,342
I don't know what you had
against the man,
696
00:27:13,344 --> 00:27:16,078
but you mailed him a disc,
697
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,614
and on that disc was
a computer virus,
698
00:27:18,616 --> 00:27:20,416
and that virus
699
00:27:20,418 --> 00:27:22,785
triggered an epileptic seizure
700
00:27:22,787 --> 00:27:24,587
that killed him.
701
00:27:24,589 --> 00:27:26,923
Man, I-I don't know
anything about computers.
702
00:27:26,925 --> 00:27:28,958
You think I know
how to write a virus?
703
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,693
I'm a busboy.
704
00:27:30,695 --> 00:27:33,496
All right, so Michael Webb
is either an imbecile,
705
00:27:33,498 --> 00:27:35,798
or he's a genius
at impersonating imbeciles.
706
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,800
It doesn't seem like he could
pull this off, I agree.
707
00:27:37,802 --> 00:27:39,068
But the package came from him.
708
00:27:39,070 --> 00:27:40,202
That much he admits.
709
00:27:40,204 --> 00:27:41,871
Could've been tampered with.
710
00:27:41,873 --> 00:27:44,040
So, someone knew he
corresponded with Borstein,
711
00:27:44,042 --> 00:27:45,575
intercepted the package,
712
00:27:45,577 --> 00:27:48,144
and then replaced his disc
with the corrupted one?
713
00:27:48,146 --> 00:27:50,212
Well, it's either that
or this man's responsible
714
00:27:50,214 --> 00:27:52,114
for one of the most
complicated murders
715
00:27:52,116 --> 00:27:53,816
I have ever investigated.
716
00:27:55,086 --> 00:27:56,319
So, who then?
717
00:27:56,321 --> 00:27:57,853
Don't know. Not yet.
718
00:27:57,855 --> 00:28:00,656
We simply need to find a person
who would most benefit
719
00:28:00,658 --> 00:28:02,825
from having the world believe
that Edwin Borstein
720
00:28:02,827 --> 00:28:05,361
was murdered by his computer.
721
00:28:06,598 --> 00:28:09,498
Hello?
722
00:28:09,500 --> 00:28:13,235
Why did you make me pick
a lock to get in here?
723
00:28:13,237 --> 00:28:14,237
I'm thinking.
724
00:28:14,238 --> 00:28:15,705
Kitty is out
doing my bidding,
725
00:28:15,707 --> 00:28:17,673
and there was no one
available to answer the door.
726
00:28:17,675 --> 00:28:19,408
Thank heavens
you're resourceful.
727
00:28:19,410 --> 00:28:22,345
"Artificial Brain"?
Yeah.
728
00:28:22,347 --> 00:28:24,380
Quite stimulating,
in their own way.
729
00:28:24,382 --> 00:28:28,150
I've had a rather productive
evening in their presence.
730
00:28:28,152 --> 00:28:31,354
Meet the suspects in the murder
of Edwin Borstein.
731
00:28:31,356 --> 00:28:33,289
They are all employees
732
00:28:33,291 --> 00:28:35,858
at something called ETRA.
733
00:28:35,860 --> 00:28:39,128
The Existential Threat
Research Association.
734
00:28:39,130 --> 00:28:41,564
ETRA is a think tank.
735
00:28:41,566 --> 00:28:43,499
It is one
of several institutions
736
00:28:43,501 --> 00:28:45,668
around the world which exists
solely for the purpose
737
00:28:45,670 --> 00:28:47,236
of studying
the myriad ways
738
00:28:47,238 --> 00:28:49,872
in which the human race
can become extinct.
739
00:28:49,874 --> 00:28:53,009
So these people sit around
and think about the apocalypse?
740
00:28:53,011 --> 00:28:56,178
They sit around and think about
all possible apocalypses.
741
00:28:56,180 --> 00:28:58,114
As far as these men
and women are concerned,
742
00:28:58,116 --> 00:29:00,583
it is a race
to the finish line.
743
00:29:00,585 --> 00:29:02,251
Now, within this think tank,
744
00:29:02,253 --> 00:29:04,220
there is a small,
but growing school of thought
745
00:29:04,222 --> 00:29:06,255
that holds that
the single greatest threat
746
00:29:06,257 --> 00:29:07,623
to the human race...
747
00:29:07,625 --> 00:29:09,659
is artificial intelligence.
748
00:29:09,661 --> 00:29:12,395
So, Mason's rant
the other night?
749
00:29:12,397 --> 00:29:13,963
Not as barmy as it sounded.
750
00:29:13,965 --> 00:29:17,833
According to these people,
the very first time
751
00:29:17,835 --> 00:29:20,836
a genuine piece of artificial
intelligence manifests,
752
00:29:20,838 --> 00:29:24,840
we'll be in a fight
for our survival within days.
753
00:29:24,842 --> 00:29:27,977
Now, imagine their quandary.
754
00:29:27,979 --> 00:29:29,979
They have pinpointed
a credible threat,
755
00:29:29,981 --> 00:29:33,416
but it sounds outlandish.
756
00:29:33,418 --> 00:29:35,017
The climate-change people,
757
00:29:35,019 --> 00:29:36,952
they can point
to disastrous examples.
758
00:29:36,954 --> 00:29:39,055
The bio-weapons alarmists,
759
00:29:39,057 --> 00:29:41,023
they have a compelling
narrative to weave.
760
00:29:41,025 --> 00:29:43,592
Even the giant comet people
sound more serious
761
00:29:43,594 --> 00:29:45,828
than the enemies of AI.
762
00:29:47,432 --> 00:29:49,198
So...
763
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,567
these are the people at ETRA
who think AI is a threat?
764
00:29:51,569 --> 00:29:53,402
You think one of them
killed Edwin Borstein,
765
00:29:53,404 --> 00:29:55,438
one of the top engineers
in the field,
766
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,073
and made it look
like Bella did it,
767
00:29:57,075 --> 00:30:00,242
all so they could draw
attention to their cause?
768
00:30:00,244 --> 00:30:01,544
A small-scale incident,
769
00:30:01,546 --> 00:30:03,713
something to get
the media chattering.
770
00:30:05,650 --> 00:30:07,483
Feel free if you'd like
to take a moment
771
00:30:07,485 --> 00:30:09,185
to admire the beauty
of this theory.
772
00:30:09,187 --> 00:30:10,820
'Cause I've done so
several times already myself.
773
00:30:10,822 --> 00:30:12,822
It's elaborate.
774
00:30:12,824 --> 00:30:15,991
But as a motive,
it makes sense.
775
00:30:15,993 --> 00:30:18,260
One of these people
intercepted the package
776
00:30:18,262 --> 00:30:19,628
from Michael Webb
to Edwin Borstein,
777
00:30:19,630 --> 00:30:21,564
and replaced the disk within it.
778
00:30:21,566 --> 00:30:23,532
I've dispatched Kitty
to Webb's apartment
779
00:30:23,534 --> 00:30:25,367
to see if she can
establish a connection
780
00:30:25,369 --> 00:30:27,303
between him
and one of our suspects.
781
00:30:27,305 --> 00:30:29,071
In the meantime...
782
00:30:29,073 --> 00:30:31,707
we wait.
783
00:30:38,616 --> 00:30:39,682
You said you didn't
set Andrew up
784
00:30:39,684 --> 00:30:40,649
with your friend from Denmark.
785
00:30:40,651 --> 00:30:42,084
I want to believe you.
786
00:30:42,086 --> 00:30:44,019
Well, I encourage you
to do just that then.
787
00:30:44,021 --> 00:30:45,888
I want to believe you,
788
00:30:45,890 --> 00:30:47,623
because if you did do it,
if you still don't
789
00:30:47,625 --> 00:30:49,525
respect the fact
that I need my own space,
790
00:30:49,527 --> 00:30:51,393
then I don't know why
we're trying this again.
791
00:30:53,131 --> 00:30:55,731
Watson, I have no inclination
792
00:30:55,733 --> 00:30:57,133
to excise Andrew from your life.
793
00:30:57,135 --> 00:30:58,234
Why would I?
794
00:30:58,236 --> 00:30:59,236
I like the man.
795
00:30:59,237 --> 00:31:01,704
Oh, you like him?
Yeah.
796
00:31:01,706 --> 00:31:02,972
You-you never told me that.
797
00:31:02,974 --> 00:31:05,241
Why would I tell you?
798
00:31:08,079 --> 00:31:09,512
To reassure that you've made
a sound choice.
799
00:31:09,514 --> 00:31:11,881
As one might reasonably
expect a friend to do.
800
00:31:13,317 --> 00:31:14,717
Right, right, oh, very well.
801
00:31:14,719 --> 00:31:16,051
I like him.
802
00:31:16,053 --> 00:31:17,520
He's intelligent.
803
00:31:17,522 --> 00:31:18,921
He hasn't just jumped
into a new business.
804
00:31:18,923 --> 00:31:20,189
He has the patience
and self-possession
805
00:31:20,191 --> 00:31:21,657
to wait for
something worthwhile.
806
00:31:21,659 --> 00:31:23,526
And, most importantly,
he understands you.
807
00:31:23,528 --> 00:31:25,728
He understands you and me.
808
00:31:25,730 --> 00:31:27,062
Wh-What do you mean by that?
809
00:31:27,064 --> 00:31:28,798
I mean, Watson,
that whether you care
810
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,766
to admit it lately or not,
811
00:31:30,768 --> 00:31:32,902
I am an important
part of your life.
812
00:31:32,904 --> 00:31:35,104
And, whether I say it
out loud or not,
813
00:31:35,106 --> 00:31:37,807
you are an important
part of mine.
814
00:31:37,809 --> 00:31:39,809
My return to New York
815
00:31:39,811 --> 00:31:41,210
was driven, in large part,
816
00:31:41,212 --> 00:31:43,279
by desire to repair
our relationship.
817
00:31:43,281 --> 00:31:46,582
And I think, even though
we might draw further or nearer
818
00:31:46,584 --> 00:31:48,884
from each other
depending on circumstance,
819
00:31:48,886 --> 00:31:52,655
you and I are bound...
somehow.
820
00:31:54,058 --> 00:31:55,925
Andrew accepts that
821
00:31:55,927 --> 00:31:57,593
without feeling
needlessly threatened.
822
00:31:57,595 --> 00:31:59,595
It's a rather
enlightened position.
823
00:31:59,597 --> 00:32:01,997
And so, no, I've got no desire
824
00:32:01,999 --> 00:32:06,101
to banish the man
to Scandi-bloody-navia.
825
00:32:11,309 --> 00:32:12,908
Okay, I believe you.
826
00:32:14,645 --> 00:32:16,545
Kind of feel like
hugging you right now.
827
00:32:16,547 --> 00:32:18,714
Yet, as my friend,
828
00:32:18,716 --> 00:32:20,783
you know that would be
a rash decision.
829
00:32:26,057 --> 00:32:27,790
It's Kitty.
830
00:32:27,792 --> 00:32:29,558
She says there's
no connection she can find
831
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,560
between Michael Webb
and one of our suspects.
832
00:32:31,562 --> 00:32:34,129
In fact, she says
his apartment is spotless.
833
00:32:34,131 --> 00:32:36,365
Michael Webb strike you
as the kind of man
834
00:32:36,367 --> 00:32:38,100
to live in a pristine apartment?
835
00:32:38,102 --> 00:32:39,602
No.
836
00:32:39,604 --> 00:32:40,970
Seems like someone
who'd be living
837
00:32:40,972 --> 00:32:43,005
in the middle of a biohazard.
838
00:32:43,007 --> 00:32:45,641
Yeah, I-I got an e-mail from a
place called Clean This House.
839
00:32:45,643 --> 00:32:48,644
They told me that a friend of
mine entered me into a contest,
840
00:32:48,646 --> 00:32:51,447
and I won a package
of free cleanings.
841
00:32:51,449 --> 00:32:53,082
Did you ever think to verify
842
00:32:53,084 --> 00:32:54,817
that Clean This House
was a real company?
843
00:32:54,819 --> 00:32:56,285
Because they don't
have a Web site.
844
00:32:56,287 --> 00:32:58,120
It's a little
845
00:32:58,122 --> 00:33:01,190
suspicious in this day
and age, don't you think?
846
00:33:01,192 --> 00:33:03,359
We think the person
who killed Borstein
847
00:33:03,361 --> 00:33:05,227
got into your place
by telling you
848
00:33:05,229 --> 00:33:06,962
you won free cleaning services.
849
00:33:06,964 --> 00:33:09,098
Then they swapped the disc
that you made for him
850
00:33:09,100 --> 00:33:11,267
with one of their own.
851
00:33:11,269 --> 00:33:13,435
So, do you recognize
any of these people?
852
00:33:13,437 --> 00:33:16,538
Ah, well, these people
are all old.
853
00:33:16,540 --> 00:33:18,307
The girl who cleaned my place
was my age.
854
00:33:18,309 --> 00:33:21,543
Are you sure no one looks
familiar to you here?
855
00:33:25,549 --> 00:33:27,216
Uh... hold up.
856
00:33:29,687 --> 00:33:31,287
Her.
857
00:33:31,289 --> 00:33:32,289
Yeah, that's her.
858
00:33:32,290 --> 00:33:33,422
I'm positive.
859
00:33:35,593 --> 00:33:38,928
Isaac Pike is a
professor of computer science.
860
00:33:38,930 --> 00:33:40,129
He's also a vocal alarmist
861
00:33:40,131 --> 00:33:42,331
when it comes to
artificial intelligence.
862
00:33:42,333 --> 00:33:43,933
Pike was born with
spina bifida.
863
00:33:43,935 --> 00:33:46,235
Been confined to a wheelchair
his entire life.
864
00:33:46,237 --> 00:33:48,671
For obvious reasons, he could
not have executed the plan
865
00:33:48,673 --> 00:33:50,906
to pose as a maid,
but his student...
866
00:33:50,908 --> 00:33:53,208
Erin Rabin...
867
00:33:53,210 --> 00:33:55,311
She's a graduate student
in philosophy.
868
00:33:55,313 --> 00:33:57,413
She took Pike's "Ethics of
Technology" course last semester
869
00:33:57,415 --> 00:33:59,114
and has been assisting
him with his research.
870
00:33:59,116 --> 00:34:00,916
She, no doubt, finds
his ideas compelling.
871
00:34:00,918 --> 00:34:02,785
Well, how do you know she was
doing it for him?
872
00:34:02,787 --> 00:34:04,219
She could've been
working on her own.
873
00:34:04,221 --> 00:34:05,421
She's a philosophy student.
874
00:34:05,423 --> 00:34:06,822
She has no programming
experience.
875
00:34:06,824 --> 00:34:08,490
The virus that
killed Borstein
876
00:34:08,492 --> 00:34:11,393
is a cutting-edge
piece of software.
877
00:34:11,395 --> 00:34:12,261
We can place her
in Webb's apartment
878
00:34:12,263 --> 00:34:13,929
under false pretenses.
879
00:34:13,931 --> 00:34:15,831
That, combined with the
proven existence of the virus,
880
00:34:15,833 --> 00:34:18,500
should be enough to get a friendly judge
to give us a warrant.
881
00:34:25,343 --> 00:34:27,843
Isaac Pike, Erin Rabin,
882
00:34:27,845 --> 00:34:29,278
glad I caught you together.
883
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:30,546
Detective Marcus Bell, NYPD.
884
00:34:30,548 --> 00:34:33,048
I wonder if you'd
mind coming with me.
885
00:34:33,050 --> 00:34:34,483
I have some questions for you
886
00:34:34,485 --> 00:34:35,951
about the murder
of Edwin Borstein.
887
00:34:35,953 --> 00:34:37,653
Who's Edwin Borstein?
888
00:34:37,655 --> 00:34:39,722
The man you mailed
a computer virus
889
00:34:39,724 --> 00:34:41,390
written by Isaac Pike to.
890
00:34:41,392 --> 00:34:43,158
Sound familiar?
891
00:34:44,996 --> 00:34:47,763
Isaac didn't write the virus.
892
00:34:47,765 --> 00:34:49,231
I did.
893
00:34:50,568 --> 00:34:53,769
I did everything.
894
00:34:53,771 --> 00:34:55,504
It was all my idea.
895
00:35:01,078 --> 00:35:02,878
You have the right
to remain silent,
896
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:04,146
and refuse to
answer questions...
897
00:35:04,148 --> 00:35:05,447
We knew she might crack
under questioning,
898
00:35:05,449 --> 00:35:06,949
but did you think
it'd be this easy?
899
00:35:06,951 --> 00:35:08,217
I don't think catching
both murderers
900
00:35:08,219 --> 00:35:09,785
is going to be
easy at all.
901
00:35:09,787 --> 00:35:11,820
She's lying to us.
902
00:35:11,822 --> 00:35:14,356
She intends to cover up
for her mentor.
903
00:35:23,235 --> 00:35:25,902
I picked Edwin Borstein
as a target.
904
00:35:26,195 --> 00:35:28,763
I went to the same Web sites
he did,
905
00:35:28,765 --> 00:35:31,932
figured out who
he was corresponding with,
906
00:35:31,934 --> 00:35:34,168
and then I wrote the virus,
907
00:35:34,170 --> 00:35:37,538
posed as a maid,
and had it mailed to Borstein.
908
00:35:37,540 --> 00:35:39,874
You have zero
programming experience
909
00:35:39,876 --> 00:35:41,909
whatsoever.
910
00:35:41,911 --> 00:35:44,645
You really asking me to believe
that you taught yourself
911
00:35:44,647 --> 00:35:46,414
to write a computer virus
that eats itself?
912
00:35:46,416 --> 00:35:50,284
If I give you a piece
of paper right now...
913
00:35:51,220 --> 00:35:53,087
...could you write a little
program for us?
914
00:35:57,927 --> 00:36:00,428
Erin was
a conscientious student.
915
00:36:00,430 --> 00:36:02,696
I know she took my work
very seriously.
916
00:36:02,698 --> 00:36:06,467
But I would never
advocate harming somebody.
917
00:36:06,469 --> 00:36:09,336
We're executing a search warrant
on your computer, as we speak.
918
00:36:09,338 --> 00:36:12,473
If there's any trace
of that virus on there,
919
00:36:12,475 --> 00:36:13,707
we'll find it.
920
00:36:13,709 --> 00:36:15,976
Why are you making this
921
00:36:15,978 --> 00:36:17,511
so easy for us?
922
00:36:17,513 --> 00:36:18,779
Because I don't want you
923
00:36:18,781 --> 00:36:20,781
dragging Isaac's name
through the mud.
924
00:36:20,783 --> 00:36:22,783
His work is
too important.
925
00:36:22,785 --> 00:36:26,487
None of us can afford
for it to be interrupted.
926
00:36:27,590 --> 00:36:29,657
So she's covering for him.
927
00:36:29,659 --> 00:36:31,992
There's not much
I can do-- she confessed.
928
00:36:31,994 --> 00:36:34,628
There's nothing tying Pike
to the murder, other than you
929
00:36:34,630 --> 00:36:36,297
saying Erin Rabin couldn't
have written that virus.
930
00:36:36,299 --> 00:36:38,265
Could we hold him overnight?
931
00:36:38,267 --> 00:36:39,667
Maybe if we had
a little more time...
932
00:36:39,669 --> 00:36:41,936
The search warrant
turned up nothing.
933
00:36:41,938 --> 00:36:43,804
Erin confessed.
934
00:36:43,806 --> 00:36:45,973
Unless something changes,
the story she told us
935
00:36:45,975 --> 00:36:48,075
is gonna be
the official version
936
00:36:48,077 --> 00:36:50,010
of Edwin Borstein's murder.
937
00:37:16,672 --> 00:37:18,372
That was Joan.
938
00:37:18,374 --> 00:37:20,040
She knows you won't come
to the phone when you're...
939
00:37:20,042 --> 00:37:21,675
like this.
940
00:37:21,677 --> 00:37:23,511
She wants to come round
and help.
941
00:37:23,513 --> 00:37:25,079
That won't be necessary.
942
00:37:25,081 --> 00:37:29,683
At times, Watson presents
certain... moral guidelines,
943
00:37:29,685 --> 00:37:32,186
and they can be
an impediment to progress.
944
00:37:33,723 --> 00:37:35,656
We're going to spend
the rest of the evening
945
00:37:35,658 --> 00:37:38,125
looking at the friends
and family of Isaac Pike.
946
00:37:39,195 --> 00:37:40,461
Why?
947
00:37:40,463 --> 00:37:43,097
Erin Rabin is willing to spend
her life in prison
948
00:37:43,099 --> 00:37:45,399
if it means that Pike is free
to continue working.
949
00:37:45,401 --> 00:37:47,268
She's has made it all but
impossible for us
950
00:37:47,270 --> 00:37:49,537
to prove that
he is behind the killing.
951
00:37:49,539 --> 00:37:52,973
So we are going to have to
settle for the next best thing:
952
00:37:52,975 --> 00:37:56,977
getting him to admit
that he did it.
953
00:38:01,117 --> 00:38:02,483
Isaac Pike.
954
00:38:02,485 --> 00:38:03,717
Sherlock Holmes.
955
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,419
We met briefly at the police
station last night.
956
00:38:05,421 --> 00:38:07,955
Mr. Holmes.
957
00:38:07,957 --> 00:38:10,090
Do I need a lawyer?
958
00:38:10,092 --> 00:38:11,725
No, you won't want her
here for this.
959
00:38:11,727 --> 00:38:14,161
You see, you and I both know
that you are the mind
960
00:38:14,163 --> 00:38:15,996
behind the murder
of Edwin Borstein,
961
00:38:15,998 --> 00:38:18,666
just as we both know that, as
long as your student holds fast
962
00:38:18,668 --> 00:38:21,969
to her story, I will never
be able to prove your guilt.
963
00:38:21,971 --> 00:38:23,137
That's a problem.
964
00:38:23,139 --> 00:38:25,172
But not an insurmountable one.
965
00:38:25,174 --> 00:38:27,274
You have
a younger brother-- Joshua.
966
00:38:27,276 --> 00:38:29,143
He hasn't quite reached
the heights that you have.
967
00:38:29,145 --> 00:38:30,978
In fact, he's had some
struggles, hasn't he?
968
00:38:30,980 --> 00:38:32,279
Drugs, alcohol...
969
00:38:32,281 --> 00:38:33,814
What's your point?
970
00:38:33,816 --> 00:38:36,217
He's been convicted of
two drug-related felonies.
971
00:38:36,219 --> 00:38:38,619
And since he's made the mistake
of living in Jersey City,
972
00:38:38,621 --> 00:38:40,054
one more conviction makes him
973
00:38:40,056 --> 00:38:42,056
eligible for a sentence
of 25 years to life
974
00:38:42,058 --> 00:38:43,557
under the state's horrific
three strikes law.
975
00:38:43,559 --> 00:38:45,759
My associate took
some photographs of him
976
00:38:45,761 --> 00:38:48,963
buying a rather large
amount of heroin, just this morning.
977
00:38:54,103 --> 00:38:55,936
Oh...
978
00:38:59,475 --> 00:39:03,077
You want me to confess...
979
00:39:03,079 --> 00:39:04,712
and, if I do,
you'll-you'll-you'll
980
00:39:04,714 --> 00:39:08,082
get rid of this folder
full of blackmail.
981
00:39:08,084 --> 00:39:10,117
I imagine you care quite deeply
about your brother,
982
00:39:10,119 --> 00:39:11,819
or you wouldn't have paid
his way through rehab
983
00:39:11,821 --> 00:39:13,454
half a dozen times already.
984
00:39:13,456 --> 00:39:15,222
Take two hours
to think it over,
985
00:39:15,224 --> 00:39:17,191
and if I haven't
heard from you...
986
00:39:17,193 --> 00:39:20,394
I did a little research
of my own last night.
987
00:39:20,396 --> 00:39:21,929
I was curious why
the NYPD
988
00:39:21,931 --> 00:39:23,397
had a consultant.
989
00:39:23,399 --> 00:39:25,299
You've got
a very impressive record--
990
00:39:25,301 --> 00:39:27,735
prolific, too-- except for
a couple of years ago,
991
00:39:27,737 --> 00:39:29,470
when you suddenly disappeared
for six months.
992
00:39:29,472 --> 00:39:31,805
Six months--
that's the length
993
00:39:31,807 --> 00:39:35,909
of a very serious
in-patient rehab.
994
00:39:35,911 --> 00:39:38,612
A man of your unique
sensitivities--
995
00:39:38,614 --> 00:39:40,648
I'm sure it's tempting to dull
996
00:39:40,650 --> 00:39:42,616
those senses.
997
00:39:42,618 --> 00:39:45,019
My history has little to do
with the matter at hand.
998
00:39:45,021 --> 00:39:46,754
I think it may.
999
00:39:46,756 --> 00:39:49,757
I think it unlikely that
a recovering addict
1000
00:39:49,759 --> 00:39:53,160
would send another troubled soul
to rot in prison,
1001
00:39:53,162 --> 00:39:56,430
just to have the satisfaction
of putting away his man.
1002
00:39:56,432 --> 00:40:00,167
That would require
ruthlessness,
1003
00:40:00,169 --> 00:40:03,037
a kind of... machine logic...
1004
00:40:03,039 --> 00:40:04,171
mm...
1005
00:40:04,173 --> 00:40:06,473
I'm not sure you have.
1006
00:40:06,475 --> 00:40:08,642
Not entirely, anyway.
1007
00:40:08,644 --> 00:40:10,644
Same kind of
machine logic you used
1008
00:40:10,646 --> 00:40:12,046
when you murdered
Edwin Borstein.
1009
00:40:12,048 --> 00:40:13,380
Some math equations
1010
00:40:13,382 --> 00:40:16,383
are more compelling than others.
1011
00:40:16,385 --> 00:40:19,953
Yours is a one-to-one exchange:
my brother for me.
1012
00:40:19,955 --> 00:40:22,356
The equation you attribute to me
1013
00:40:22,358 --> 00:40:25,359
trades one man's life
1014
00:40:25,361 --> 00:40:28,329
for the chance to prevent
billions of deaths.
1015
00:40:28,331 --> 00:40:31,165
You're talking about
nothing less than
1016
00:40:31,167 --> 00:40:33,100
the survival of the species.
1017
00:40:33,102 --> 00:40:37,604
Surely that's worth compromising
one's values for?
1018
00:40:38,541 --> 00:40:40,140
In any case...
1019
00:40:40,142 --> 00:40:43,477
I think you're bluffing.
1020
00:40:43,479 --> 00:40:45,112
You might want the world
to believe
1021
00:40:45,114 --> 00:40:47,247
that you're an automaton,
1022
00:40:47,249 --> 00:40:50,017
a calculating machine...
1023
00:40:50,019 --> 00:40:53,454
but you and I know better.
1024
00:40:53,456 --> 00:40:56,957
Or we will, anyway...
1025
00:40:56,959 --> 00:40:59,159
in a couple of hours.
1026
00:41:09,672 --> 00:41:12,373
Hey...
1027
00:41:12,375 --> 00:41:13,874
I didn't see anything
on the news
1028
00:41:13,876 --> 00:41:15,075
about Pike getting arrested.
1029
00:41:15,077 --> 00:41:16,210
Nothing about his brother
1030
00:41:16,212 --> 00:41:17,644
on the police band, either.
1031
00:41:17,646 --> 00:41:20,280
What happened?
1032
00:41:21,183 --> 00:41:23,250
He wouldn't confess.
1033
00:41:23,252 --> 00:41:25,486
And you couldn't
turn in his brother.
1034
00:41:25,488 --> 00:41:28,055
We can still
keep looking for a way
1035
00:41:28,057 --> 00:41:30,057
to prove that Pike did it.
1036
00:41:30,059 --> 00:41:31,925
The Property Clerk's
Office called.
1037
00:41:31,927 --> 00:41:34,228
They want to know when they can
come and pick up Bella.
1038
00:41:34,230 --> 00:41:37,064
I need a couple
more hours with her.
1039
00:41:37,066 --> 00:41:39,466
Thank you.
1040
00:41:45,941 --> 00:41:47,641
Hey.
Hey!
1041
00:41:47,643 --> 00:41:49,743
Wha...?
I called to say bye.
1042
00:41:49,745 --> 00:41:51,779
You weren't picking up.
1043
00:41:52,815 --> 00:41:54,114
I wanted to surprise you.
1044
00:41:54,116 --> 00:41:55,082
You're great.
1045
00:41:55,084 --> 00:41:56,450
I mean, I knew you were great
1046
00:41:56,452 --> 00:41:58,252
but someone helped me
to see how great.
1047
00:41:58,254 --> 00:42:00,487
Thanks.
1048
00:42:00,489 --> 00:42:02,256
So I called the airline,
1049
00:42:02,258 --> 00:42:04,291
and there are some empty seats
on your flight to Copenhagen.
1050
00:42:04,293 --> 00:42:06,360
Listen-- I don't want to horn in,
if you're too busy,
1051
00:42:06,362 --> 00:42:08,162
and I can't stay the
whole time but...
1052
00:42:08,164 --> 00:42:10,130
I've always wanted
to see Copenhagen.
1053
00:42:16,839 --> 00:42:18,172
Bella...
1054
00:42:19,475 --> 00:42:23,310
...one member of a murderous
conspiracy is in jail.
1055
00:42:23,312 --> 00:42:26,313
The second walks free.
1056
00:42:26,315 --> 00:42:29,283
The cost of catching him is
incarcerating his brother
1057
00:42:29,285 --> 00:42:31,485
for unrelated crimes...
1058
00:42:32,955 --> 00:42:35,956
...crimes for which I,
of all people...

00:42:35,958 --> 00:42:38,192
should have some
understanding.
1060
00:42:41,997 --> 00:42:45,265
Is it right to let the
second murderer walk free?
1061
00:42:49,839 --> 00:42:51,405
I don't understand
the question.
1062
00:42:51,749 --> 00:42:53,482
Can I have
more information?
