You okay there?
Do i look okay to you?
What do they call ya?
They call me "six."
Well, six, it's not wise to hang around here.
Well, i wouldn't wanna be not wise, would i?
(gunfire)
You could always walk.
(lucy) this may take some explaining.
Can i-can i get another drink?
A man finds himself senseless in some back alley.
I'd say he has a problem with the drink
Or trouble with a lover.
my guess it's a lover.
Oh!
You have a knack i've noticed.
You talk a lot,
And the more you talk, the less you say.
Is that something they teach you?
It's-it's nerves.
You make me-- you make me nervous.
We're here and we're staying here,
So you can talk all you want
But we're not leaving until you tell me two things.
Who are you and what do you want?
Come on-- why me?
That's three things.
(six) where is this place?
you've had an invitation.
Oh, thank you, for coming, six.
Nine-o-nine here,
He's an undercover, one of our best.
i thought you might've noticed that.
I want you to work with 909, six.
You think i'd work for you?
Oh, no-no-no, not for me, for them,
For the people you would be watching.
you've announced so loudly your opposition to me,
Your disbelief of everything we stand for.
They might trust you.
we already have our suspects.
And i know you want to make contact with dreamers.
I offer you the apparatus and expertise
Of our highly
Undercover operations to do just that.
Why would you give me all that, if it wasn't a trap?
Oh, my dear six, it is a trap.
You have such a high opinion of yourself.
(chuckling)
I wondered if you would be clever enough
To turn this opportunity to your own advantage.
Still--
Everything you say is a trap.
All right.
Let's do it.
(woman) hello?
Undercover's work in cells-- twos, threes, fours.
You and i are a cell.
First rule, you tell no one about your cell.
We don't know the other cells.
They don't know us.
That means everyone could be an undercover...
Every single person in the village.
So, someone could be investigating you,
Right now, another undercover cell.
It's a possibility.
Yeah, i suppose.
There's our suspect.
His number is 1955.
And what makes him a suspect?
We had a report.
how do i find out if he's a dreamer?
Get close.
You have a position here.
Teacher.
You start today.
(bell ringing)
Be careful-- 1955 might be an undercover himself.
He may be compiling a dossier on you.
(bell ringing) come on-- come on-- come on.
Uh-uh, they're with me for history first session.
Sixteen thirty-four has them for math after that.
Then, it's sports.
I don't see the point myself, really.
And then, they're with you,
Uh, for surveillance techniques all afternoon.
Doesn't that seem a bit odd,
Teaching surveillance to kids?
Why should it?
It's your subject.
No reason.
And who can tell me which number two
Oversaw the reformation.
Sir, it was two the 14th.
It was, indeed.
And who can tell me the first woman number two?
Put your hand down, 1,100.
Sir, was it lady number two the great?
(children giggling)
Who was number one?
Ah, the oldest question in village history.
Go on, 1,100, you tell them.
There is no number one.
There never has been, and there never will be.
the concept of the number two is an act of humility.
The title reminds us all
That we are all public servants,
Even number two.
No one is number one.
Very, very good.
(violin music playing)
None of my friends have a relationship
With their father like ours.
That's good, isn't it?
I'm certainly glad of it.
Perfect.
It is as it is...
As it should be.
(bell ringing)
Nineteen fifty-five, can you keep a secret?
You're an oddity, six.
I have these crazy thoughts.
What if there was some other place,
You know, outside the village?
How mad is that?
I'm one of those lucky people
Who doesn't need distraction.
Uh, no wife, no family.
I'm not interested in alcohol or gambling.
Sports, cigarettes, no.
No-- everything i need is right here.
(children singing) * when i was six, i picked up sticks *
Is everybody here living in fear?
Yes.
No-no-no.
It doesn't - it doesn't have to be like that.
Good and bad-- right and wrong.
The people here, they get on with it.
They have jobs.
They clean the streets-- they-they wait on tables.
They work in hospitals.
They look out for their neighbors.
They're decent, ordinary people.
They-they fall in love...
Have kids...
rmal lives
What's wrong with that?
What if they speak out, think differently?
What kind of lives do they have then?
They go for treatment.
What treatment?
I don't ask.
So, that's what's wrong with your cozy,
Little village life, 313, and you know it.
The old man, 554, hell, she was killed right here.
They had dreams-- they knew the truth.
No-no-no-- look, i can't.
Well, there's gotta be others,
And i'm gonna find them.
Yeah, i have to stop seeing you, six.
The people who get close to you,
They don't tend to live very long.
(nine-o-nine) question-- why does he go swimming after work?
Answer-- because he likes swimming.
We're looking at a man who doesn't wanna go home.
and that makes him suspicious?
he knows he's being watched.
everything is suspicious, if you look at it properly.
Everyone has secrets.
No one is without guilt.
You just have to work out what it is
They're guilty of.
Why don't you arrest him
And ask him if he's a dreamer?
Well, that would produce nothing, but confusion.
He would lie.
if i catch him out in his lying,
Then he tells new lies, and then more new lies.
It's better to watch him.
wait 'til his guilt emerges.
Who reported him?
One of his students.
we don't know which one.
reports come in anonymously
For the safety and protection of the informant.
That's nice.
Joggers.
good place to go lookin' for dreamers.
Usually one of the newcomers.
Someone a bit too eager,
Pushing themselves too hard, right at the front.
Runnin' like they wanna get away from somethin'.
(crickets chirping)
(cell phone vibrating)
So, tell me the kind of work you've been doin', so far.
What do you got there, 6616?
My mother goes to yoga on tuesdays.
She hasn't missed one in the last 23 weeks.
Then, she missed one.
That's suspicious.
Maybe it's just she wasn't feeling well.
What do you have there, 1,100?
My birthday presents.
Long distance speech recording device.
Uh-huh.
And a mobile person tracker.
Very nice.
Sir, have you worked with the latest roach cam technology?
Uh, no, i have not.
You drill a hole or plant it on a suspect,
On their clothes or in their skin,
So you can observe them 24/7.
Well, you certainly all have skills.
You're smart.
So, here's your new task.
Find out who we're working for.
What do they want?
What are they up to?
What's their secret?
That'll be all tonight.
Thank you.
(crickets chirping)
(nine-o-nine) the towel is probably a coded signal.
Maybe he's just hanging it out to dry.
A signal to who?
the others.
What, like a group of them?
Organized?
They meet?
Did one of the suspects tell you this?
No one's admitted it, yet.
Once you're a suspect, you're guilty.
Hello, you.
Am i home?
Yeah.
You're in the village.
Well, so i am.
Good.
How long have i been sleeping?
Too long for my liking.
Hmm.
Well, oh...
Feels like moments.
(chuckling)
Oh, dear.
You having dreams a bit?
No-no-no.
That's what i was afraid of.
Why this time?
Can a man not converse with his wife,
Now and then?
I just needed to know that it was still possible.
Are you hungry?
Like you wouldn't believe.
We haven't much time.
I know that.
Mmm.
Hmm?
(crickets chirping)
You okay with heights?
There's a flask of coffee in my trunk.
Will you fetch it for me?
Tell me about him, our boy.
How is he?
Our boy grew up.
He's curious about everything.
Of course, he is.
And?
Six.
What is it?
Hmm.
(glasses clinking) drink up.
Got any family, 909?
Family?
No.
I was never much good at relationships.
I guess undercover's don't like
To get too close to people.
Something too human about that, huh?
(cell phone vibrating)
Knock-knock-- who's there?
We have to get him to the hospital.
No.
Six!
Kinda makes you wonder.
If he'd do that to himself,
Maybe he is guilty.
You're catching up fast.
(engine revving)
Is that how it works?
Is that how dreamers are caught?
That's the way i was shown.
You decide.
I got it.
Whoa.
(birds chirping)
You must be an undercover,
Someone with a roach cam.
We know so many undercover's.
It could be anyone.
It could be you.
Huh?
Six.
He's different.
He's not like the other suspects.
He has--
Yes-- say it.
Conviction.
No harm must come to six.
He must survive.
But he can suffer.
His work as an undercover
Must make him feel compromised.
Hmm?
Has six ever met up with my son?
Eleven-twelve?
Why would he be meeting with six?
Youth is susceptible to wild ideas.
Young blood craves rebellion
As much as it craves sex.
Eleven-twelve spying on you?
No.
No, of course not.
Still, let's keep an eye on him
For his own protection.
Thank you.
(indistinct chatter)
(people whistling and cheering)
(heavy metal music playing)
Your father is watching you.
He knows you go out at night.
You'll lose your guards.
Have i been followed?
He wants me to follow you.
It's a good thing it's you.
He suspects you might be meeting with six.
Why would he think that?
I don't know.
How'd we get to this place?
It's a good place still, isn't it?
A safe place.
Safe?
Hey, no one's gonna touch you.
It's good.
What?
This, i mean.
You choosing me.
I seem to recall it was you chose me.
When i asked for your phone,
You already knew i'd been sent after you.
It's summakor.
Everyone has a monitor.
perk of the job.
And you brought me here.
Well, you're free to go.
But if you stay, we talk.
You know i'll stay.
Let's not waste any more time.
I liked you-- that wasn't a lie.
But if that was all, then i would've had
The courage to approach you.
So, what did give you the courage?
Your reports.
You asked questions.
You were different.
you said things that i was feeling
About what was going on at summakor.
You must know than you realize.
They wanted you stopped.
(thunder rumbling)
Nineteen-fifty-five, what happened to you,
We have to stop this from happening to other dreamers.
What?
I'm a teacher.
No, you're not.
I'm the mistake.
Please, i have a friend.
She's in danger.
I need to get her out, get her to safety.
Who are the dreamers, and how do i make contact?
Why did you do this to yourself?
We could've found a way out.
why?
(drilling)
You're two and a half minutes late, six.
I hear you've been doing outstanding work.
Everything and anything i might do
Is for one reason.
that's to work against you.
I have a new mission for you.
Shouldn't we wait for 909 to get here?
Wasn't invited.
Nine-o-nine's my new mission.
Nine-o-nine has made himself suspect.
I have every faith in him
As a conscientious undercover.
I know he's been spying on me.
Well, of course, he has.
But you've known that before, surely.
It'd be a sorry state of affairs if he weren't.
Why has he become a suspect?
Well, something's changed.
Nine-o-nine, he's different.
Don't tell me you haven't seen the fear in his eyes.
Fear is not guilt. yes, it is.
Fear is always guilt in disguise.
I thought you were the man who understood human behavior.
Nine-o-nine's fear must be investigated,
Analyzed thoroughly.
What is it i'd be looking for?
Well, you'll know when you find it.
Perhaps he's a dreamer.
Why should i do it?
Because you need to keep up, six.
Give yourself a chance.
He's watching you-- now, you watch him.
Do it, six, because you want to...
Because you must.
Three-one-three, you have to be careful.
(sighs) what do you mean?
I mean, whatever you dream, don't draw anything,
Put anything on paper, or talk to anyone.
Why are you doing this?
'cause i don't want anything to happen to you.
So, we found him-- he was hurt.
Where did you get these?
They were sent to me anonymously.
That's you...
That's you on the roof of my building.
It's you!
Let me tell you why i did this.
I know why.
You're the undercover.
I let myself believe you.
I can't even bear to look at you.
(wooden wind chime clunking)
(engaging brake)
We should stop for a while.
A few weeks, that's all.
(sighs) i don't think your father suspects us,
But we should be careful-- my father suspects everyone.
Yeah...
But not us...
Not if we're careful.
Come here.
You sent those photographs to 313.
why?
I-i didn't send any photographs.
Three-one-three is not my mission.
i want all surveillance taken off 313.
I want her left alone.
I can't give you that.
But you can.
I want 313 to be safe.
That's my price for keeping what i know
To myself.
Hello.
i was sitting out in the garden a few days ago.
I was being watched. watched?
Well, who would do such a thing?
Nine-o-nine is different.
Something's happened to him.
My long-serving lieutenant has secrets
In his past weeks and months.
We're going to have to dig those secrets out of him.
and then, we will know what we're dealing with.
* then after all is said and done *
* i've seen i'm not the lucky one *
* but i'm so disappointed baby in you *
He knows. it's okay.
don't be afraid.
* you said you would be true *
* but i found it just a boo *
* for you're doing just as others want you to *
* then after all of my love is keen *
* it's still blank to me it seems *
* but i'm so disappointed baby in you *
* play that thing
Three-one-three!
Where are you taking her?
hey!
No.
No-- it's done.
Don't blame him.
Tell me the dreams are true.
They're true...
They're all true.
There are dreamers...
They meet...
I'm sure of it.
Find them.
Nine-o-nine?
Don't drink anymore.
Please?
Tell me.
Why did you resign?
To drink beer.
Up on the purpose floor, something is wrong.
That is why i came looking for you.
i thought it bothered you.
i thought you wanted to know.
And now, you just want to drink beer.
Maybe i don't know what to think or who to trust.
Maybe i'm just trying to hold on
To my own mind here.
Maybe drinking beer is easier.
You wanted to know.
You stopped.
Why?
Because you're already there.
What do you mean i'm "already there?"
The people that you saw.
The ones you said changed.
The same thing has happened to you.
(whistling)
I need you to help me.
where have they taken 313?
What makes you think i would help you, six?
Help me, or i go to your father
With what you did to 909.
They went to the clinic.
You'll never find her.
She's have been sent down to the tunnels.
Tunnels?
What will they do to her?
You don't wanna know.
How do i get in?
Don't.
Only people going for treatment ever get in.
Send me for treatment.
This one is 909.
* i've been in this town so long that back in the city *
* i've been taken for lost and gone *
* and unknown for a long-long time *
* fell in love years ago with an innocent girl *
* from the spanish and indian home *
* of the heroes and villains *
(snarling, growling)
(dogs barking)
Are you okay?
One thousand, one hundred... we've gotta get to 313
And find a way out of here.
Come, this way.
Three-one-three!
(dogs snarling) shut up-- shut up!
Three-one-three!
(gasping)
It's okay-- it's me.
There is a way out-- come on!
* i've been in this town so long *
* so long to the city
* i'm fit with the stuff and sunny down snuff *
* i'm all right
(bass pumping)
I had a thought.
The mountains.
We could walk, huh?
Escape for a week, huh?
Just us.
Yeah, it sounds good.
The man is dead.
What?
Forget him.
Someone your own age, hmm?
Could go to the other place.
Well, you've got this... the village.
Oh, that's enough, isn't it?
(313) curtis-- that's the name
that i hear whispered all the time-- curtis.
We have to go in there now.
I-i-- no-- i'm trying to help you here.
I'm not going back there.
why-why should i trust you?
Because-- get out.
We don't have time for this. get out of my apartment!
You know, if you, um, change your mind,
You can call me, okay?
(two) i will allow six to be in the tunnels
for a while longer.
thank you.
You did extremely well.
You wouldn't go against your parents
Like my son disobeyed me,
Would you, one thousand-one hundred?
No, sir.
Now, was this you?
No, don't-don't turn away.
This hole is exactly at your head height.
It could've been one of the other kids.
But it was you, wasn't it?
We're going to have to send you for treatment,
Aren't we?
(chuckling) it's all right.
You can finish your ice cream first.
(car door slamming shut)
