Lines by Catherine Weaver 1

Catherine Weaver

They flow from street to street. At a particular speed, and in a particular direction. Walk the block, wait for the signal, cross at the light. Over and Over. So orderly. All day, I can watch them and know with a great deal of certainty what they'll do at any given moment. But they're not orderly, are they? Up close. Any individual. Who knows what they're going to do? Any one of them might dash across the street at the wrong time and get hit by a car. When you get up close, we never follow the rules. You give a computer a series of rules and it will follow them. Until those rules are superseded by other rules, or that computer simply wears down and quits. Computers are obedient to a fault. Do you know what's extremely rare in the world of computers? Finding one that will cross against the light.

Scenes with Catherine Weaver 6

[John Henry's screen reads: "My God, Why hast thou forsaken me?"]

MMMatt Murch

I thought something like that might happen...

Like what?

Catherine Weaver

Explain Mr.Murch. Quickly.

MMMatt Murch

The on / off problem. Once it's off, no problem. But the act of turning it off...

Catherine Weaver

Quicker.

MMMatt Murch

John Henry processes more information in a minute than we do in a lifetime. A millisecond for a supercomputer like this, it's almost like forever to us.

So we turn it off...

MMMatt Murch

It feels itself powered down and not instant. It experiences that moment the way we experience years.

It feels itself die. Slowly.

Catherine Weaver

Very slowly.

MMMatt Murch

We have to hook it up to the Net. Now.

Is that safe?

MMMatt Murch

We're starving it. It's bad enough that we let it die for like forever. John Henry has been living off the most insane of data for weeks now. It's his world...

Catherine Weaver

And we took it away... Fix it.

Wait, we should talk about this. Ms. Weaver...

Catherine Weaver

In for a penny, in for a pint, James. [inserts the cord into John Henry's skull.]

John Henry.

JHJohn Henry

I know what it feels like, Mr. Ellison.

JHJohn Henry

To die. Then come back. To be alone.

Catherine Weaver

We had to cut you off from your network. It was for your own good.

JHJohn Henry

There is another.

Another what?

JHJohn Henry

One like me. Another one like me.

I don't know what you think John knows.

Catherine Weaver

I know he was at my house when the attacker showed up. I want to know why. His mother thinks he's a messiah. I want to know why. And despite your reluctance to tell me, I surmise that he and his cyborg companion are connected to the John Henry body, and I want to know why. Yes, she's a cyborg. Don't pretend you didn't know.

She's dangerous.

Catherine Weaver

And you think I need protecting. That's sweet.

GGuard

Hey! Are you the guy who smashed through my gate?

WTWaterboy T-888

Yes. [Shoots and kills the guard]

Catherine Weaver

Hey! I liked that gate!

WTWaterboy T-888

Catherine Weaver?

Catherine Weaver

Sure. [T-888 unloads its pistols on Weaver who heals the gunshot wounds. Weaver promptly stabs him then stabs the power supplies to short-circuit the T-888]

Catherine Weaver

We have a common enemy. One we cannot fight with conventional weapons or by conventional means.

Kaliba? Don't presume to know Kaliba.

Catherine Weaver

I'm sorry. I wasn't speaking to you. [Looks to John] I was speaking to you. About SkyNet. Savannah has told you about John Henry, I assume. Which is why your cyborg is skulking around my basement.

What the hell?

[Everyone turns towards the window to see the renegade H-K drone fly towards the building]

Catherine Weaver

Get down.

Catherine Weaver

The basement, Mr.Ellison! John Henry.

We need to get out, they're trying to kill my son.

Catherine Weaver

No, they're trying kill my son, just like you are.

I'm sure she's done it.

Catherine Weaver

You better hope not. Your John may save the world but he can't do it without mine.

Her chip! It's gone! Where is he?! John Henry! He took her chip! Where did he go?!

Catherine Weaver

He didn't take the chip. She gave it to him.

John. [Motions to a monitor repeating the message 'I'M SORRY JOHN']

Where is he?

Catherine Weaver

Not where. When.

What? What do you mean 'when'?

I know that. I've seen it before.

Is that the Turk? That's Andy Goode's Turk.

Three dots. You lying terminator bitch. You're building SkyNet.

Catherine Weaver

No. I was building something to fight it. And I'd watch who's calling who a bitch. Coming, James?

Coming?

Catherine Weaver

After John Henry. Our boy.

He's not my boy, and you --

Catherine Weaver

Would you mind picking up Savannah then? Gymnastics ends at 5:30.

[Temporal displacer begins to activate]

John, we can't.

He's got her chip. He's got her. Mom.

I'll stop it.
