It wasn't Romero. It was you who exported the keys. Why?
Mr. RobotWe're close, Elliot. You pull the ripcord now and everything will be for nothing. There was a huge cost to get to this point. I still believe if we hold out a little longer-
Mr. Robot
You do this, and they will have won. You really believe undoing this is gonna fix anything? Huh? Do you? I mean who is this really gonna help?
Me. I'm doing this for me. I can't live with what I did anymore. And you're wrong. They won't win. Because one good thing came out of all of this. They showed themselves. The top one percent of the one percent. The ones in control. The ones who play god without permission. And now I'm gonna take them down. All of them.
[Peanuts raises a gun to Mr. Robot's head.]
PPeanuts
Where's your courage now, bitch?
[Robot looks straight at her.]
Mr. Robot
Right fuckin' here.
Mr. Robot
This is cute and all, but I gotta be real with you. You're too stupid to do this.
What is it that you think I'm doing, exactly?
Mr. Robot
Trying to get inside my head.
Oh, I'm already in there.
Mr. Robot
You said you wanna own this island and you need my help. So this job interview isn't about my credentials. It's about yours. And like I said, with your operation, I don't know if you could run a White Castle, much less New York. You want me to work for you. It's clear you don't wanna force me into it, which means you gotta start convincing me.
Mr. Robot
Let's not play dumb. If she told you about me, I gotta think she told you about Five/Nine. So you know the things I've done, things I've been able to pull off. I'm not someone you push around with a gun. I am the gun. So yeah, you gotta convince me. Because right now, if this is your master vision, do yourself a favor. Go back to that little shaman of yours and shit some more, because you're clearly still full of it.
Mr. Robot
The only reason I'm here is to make sure no one ever hurts you. That was supposed to be your father's job, but he failed. He was too weak. [sniffles] But you. You were strong. You fought back... The only way you could. You brought me here, to protect you... From him. I tried to keep you safe. Only show you the memories when the two of you were friends before... I thought I could... store the truth so you'd never have to see it... or feel it. The fact is... I didn't wanna see it either. I made a terrible mistake. I was afraid. Afraid of what this would do to you... To us. This was never my secret to keep. And you deserved better than to live in darkness for so long. I'm so sorry. I failed you too. I understand if you can't forgive me or... If you decide to shut me out for good. Just as long as you know I am not your father. I never was.
I know. You're nothing like him. That's why I created you. You're the father I needed, not the father I had.
Mr. Robot
If I could have stopped him. If I could go back in time, change everything that happened to you. Make it all go away.
Then I wouldn't be me. And I wouldn't have you. I don't know if I can go through with the hack anymore. I don't know if I can do anything.
I was hoping we could talk in person.
Mr. Robot
You once told me that we would never see each other again. What makes you want to see me now?
Call it a change of mind. A realization.
Mr. Robot
Nah. If I'm hearing your voice on the other end of this call, I'm good.
Mr. Robot
You'll know soon enough.
A proposal. You stop whatever it is you're planning and I give you information that will prove to be very valuable to you.
Mr. Robot
You think I'm going to trust you?
Let me earn your trust by sharing first. It is about your friend. Angela.
Mr. Robot
What about her?
You see Elliot, you think Angela's dead. But she's not.
Mr. Robot
You sent me a picture of her dead body you sick fucking fuck.
And you believe what most people believe? Only what is right in front of you. I expected more from you.
Mr. Robot
You think I'm gonna believe this bullshit? You killed her. Angela's dead.
No Elliot. Angela's alive and if you allow me, I can take you to her. Would you like that Elliot? Would you like to see Angela again? To hear her voice? To hold her hand? (pause) Elliot, are you there?
I know you have regrets Elliot and pain. I know there are things in your life that you wish were different, just the same as Angela and I can show you a way you can make it all go away, just as I did for her. You can reset everything and live in the world you deserve, a world without all the pain you carry, without your past, without your regrets. Please Eliot. Let me show you the world that I showed your closest friend.
No I saw what you did to her. Before you killed her. That wasn't Angela. You used her. You turned her into someone else.
Then don't take my word for it. Ask her yourself. Elliot, we don't have to fight like this anymore. Let's finally make peace with each other as we were always meant to do. Let go of the anger and the hatred you've built up towards me. Understand I've only wished to help.
Here's the thing. I don't need help right now. You do.
Whiterose isn't dead until her machine is!
Mr. Robot
Since when did her machine become our goal? You don't get it, do you? That's where all of this started! You go down this path, it'll never end. It'll always be something else. Another symbol to destroy, more people to save. This is an endless war. At a certain point, we gotta move on.
You can't stop this. I'm going to marry Angela. Nothing else matters!
Mr. Robot
Think about what you're saying. Angela is dead.
Mr. Robot
That's not Angela.
Mr. Robot
No, you didn't.
I thought things were fine between us, but it's still the same you, isn't it? You just don't want me to be happy! Why can't you just let me have this one thing?!
Mr. Robot
Elliot, you need to listen to me.
No! I don't! Not anymore! I'm done listening to you. I just wanna be fucking alone! [Beat] That's... all I've ever really wanted from you.
