:12:00
She'd punch up her own world
and stay in it for days.
:12:04
Somebody else was in there.
:12:06
Utopia made tapes of her VR
experiences and tried to erase them,
:12:10
but she missed one image.
:12:12
We found this fragment
on the end of her last tape.
:12:16
Cuervo Jones. Peruvian terrorist.
Shining Path member.
:12:22
Runs the Mescalito Justice,
:12:24
biggest, baddest gang in LA.
:12:26
Somehow, Cuervo Jones managed
to tap into the VR master data bank.
:12:31
Utopia was looking
for something to believe in,
:12:34
so he used her
to steal the black box.
:12:37
Sad story. You got a smoke?
:12:40
This is serious, Plissken.
:12:42
The black box is a matter
of national security.
:12:45
Looks like it belongs
to Utopia's lover-boy now.
:12:48
Yeah. We want it back.
:12:51
I'll bet.
:12:54
What's it do?
:12:56
Top secret. Only on a need-to-know.
:12:59
Evidently, I don't need to know,
:13:02
so fuck you, I'm going to Hollywood.
:13:04
If you go into LA,
bring back the black box,
:13:08
and you will receive a pardon for
every immoral act you have committed.
:13:13
Sounds familiar.
:13:15
An immediate answer.
:13:18
Yes or no?
:13:23
Who are you?
:13:25
I'm your president.
:13:27
I understand you got
some domestic problems.
:13:30
Put that black box in my hand,
and you're a free man.
:13:37
I can see you're real concerned
about your daughter.
:13:41
Utopia is lost to me.
My daughter is gone.
:13:45
- Last chance, hotshot.
- For what?
:13:48
Freedom, sir.
:13:49
In America?
That died a long time ago.
:13:53
I've heard enough of this.
:13:55
Explain to this foot soldier why he's
going to do what we tell him to do.
