S1 E15Unfinished Business

SKScott Knowles

Look, I know you think you were a shoo-in for CTO, and you're pissed... probably wishing I'd fall onto the subway tracks. So how about you cut the bullshit.

I'm afraid your paranoia has gotten the best of you but, nevertheless, please excuse me, I'll leave you to review your notes before Spencer arrives. Oh, and thank you for dinner. Entire evening was enchanting, the food, the wine, your lovely Sharon. Please tell her I say hello.

SKScott Knowles

[pauses] Did you enjoy the view... what, do you think she wouldn't tell me?

I, I'm not sure what you're trying...

SKScott Knowles

You wanna watch me piss, too? I've had several glasses of water.

Scott, a misunderstanding...

SKScott Knowles

Happy to pull my dick out for you if that's your thing, watching the Knowles family urinate. [unzips pants] Hell, I could fly my brother in from Miami, he has the bladder of a small child. You'd probably bust a nut watching him take a leak.

I'm not sure what she told you, but if I were you I would tell her to find more appropriate ways of managing her imagination.

SKScott Knowles

Tyrell, I want you to accept the hard truth, right here, right now in front of me. You are not going to be CTO. I want to see that look wash over your face. It's the only way I'll know you'll stop playing these silly, silly games.

Oh, I'm fully aware you're CTO, Scott. I'm not sure what more I can offer you.

[begins to leave the room]

SKScott Knowles

Wait... here. [removes the expensive watch from his wrist, extends it towards Tyrell, and gestures with it as he continues to speak] I feel bad, after all you've got a child on the way, you need all the help you can get. In fact, this would probably pay off the rest of your mortgage. Aren't you still in that neat little two bedroom in Chelsea... There. [points at Tyrell] That's the look I was looking for.

[narrating] Remember when the panic would set in and we had a solution? Be honest, I miss that. Life is so much easier when you're numb.

[narrating] For all his insane and inhumane ideas, he does understand the world. The wild savagery of the world.

My own brother. That's what the universe asked of me. To be my brother's keeper. Like Cain after Abel, I'll be a fugitive and wanderer on the earth. Brave fugitive. Brave wanderer. Look how you helped me! That's the kind of bravery I've been talking 'bout! But--But now... now I want you to look at Isaac. [Grabs Elliot's face and tilts his head down] Look! Dead proof. My operation is over. So go on, crash it. Burn it to the ground. Doesn't matter. I'm gone. A spirit. One with all the heavens. All existence.

[a car pulls up and DJ and Fernando Vera walk over] Shayla. Where is she?

Keys, yo. [DJ throws him the keys and gets into the car] Told you you'd get her back, bro. You just didn't realize... [indicates the trunk of Elliot's car] she was with you the whole time.

Elliot? I wasn't expecting you.

I'm here for my appointment.

Well, you can slip in before my first patient.

You told me I should tell you the truth.

Everything I say will still be protected and confidential?

[Beat]

I've been lying to you. I don't take my pills. But you don't either. Your refill frequency for Ativan doesn't match your prescription divided by the dosage. This morning... you bought a tall hazelnut latte. Paid for it on your Evil Corp card. By text, you justified the indulgence to your sister because Evil Corp gives you double rewards. But those points only accumulate on travel expenses. You're not good with money. On paper, your Thursday 2:00, Marilyn O'Brien, is your doppelganger. I think you're encouraging her to leave her husband... because you're tired of being dumped. You like porn, especially anal. Whether you like it yourself, I don't know. That's not relevant to me. You've told your best friend Jennifer that you wish your mom would die. I sometimes watch you on your webcam. You cry sometimes... just like me. Because you're lonely. I don't just hack you, Krista. I hack everyone... my friends, coworkers. But I've helped a lot of people. I want... a way out of loneliness. Just like you. Is that what you wanted to hear?

We're all living in each other's paranoia. You definitely can't argue that. Is that why everyone tries to avoid each other?

TTrenton

Have you ever considered which part of our scheme motivates you? When the Dark Army bailed, you didn't care if pushing a button would bring about an economic revolution. You want momentary anarchy. The others - Mobley likes palling around, Romero wants a whiff of fame. Those reasons depress me.

What's the part you want?

TTrenton

My parents were born in Iran. They came here like everybody else, for freedom. But my dad works 60hr weeks to determine tax loopholes for a millionaire art dealer. My mom ran up loans into five digits to get an online degree. They won't shut up about how great America is, but they're going to die in debt doing things they never wanted to do.

[narrating] Hackers. We inherently trust no one, including each other. I'll never be able to tell her there will always be this divide, my walls she can't look over...and she knows it.

[narrating] I hurt Krista. I don't feel good about that. I hope you're not mad at me, but you have to admit she is just like everyone else. Too afraid to peek over their walls for fear of what they might see. Not me. That's what I do. I look.

[to Elliot] Don't take this the wrong way but I envy you. I wish I could talk to my mom again even if she isn't real.

How long has this been going on?

I don't know.

And what is it that you're doing exactly?

Encrypting all the files, all the Evil Corp's financial records will be impossible to access. The encryption key will self-delete after the process complete.

What about the backups?

I took care of that too. China...

Steel Mountain? Of course, even when we went redundant.

I hacked the AirDream network. I was in all of them.

You really thought of everything. Who else was involved?

Just me.

Well, now it's you and me. I've always told we'd end up working together, Elliot. But still, I have to know. Why did you do it? What did you hope to accomplish by doing all of this?

I don't know. I wanted to save the world.

Oh, you're still thinking about this morning. I don't think I'll ever get that image out of my head. Between you and me, I was glad he killed himself. He was not a very good person. He had a gambling problem. He drank too much. Most notably, he was weak. His instincts left a lot to be desired. Oh, I despise people like that. In fact, I felt the world was a little better off knowing he wasn't in it anymore. Uh, I believe even his family will benefit from this, in the long run.
