Humans

A Synth free community.

I'm not moving, no.

You just don't see what's happening to our family, do you?

Conscious Synth children.

Where is Peter? You returned but he did not.

Pete's not coming back.

He's gone.

I'm gonna take care of you now.

If you had helped me, we could have killed them all.

I'm sorry. I failed you.

Oh god.

Her mind is breaking down. Some sort of system overload.

Mia is dying. What can we do? - The code.

It's the one chance we have to save her.

You mean send it to all Synths across the world?

You know what that could mean.

We're not ready for that.

The world will never be ready, but it will happen anyway.

Do it, Mattie.

It's done.

SIRENS WAILING

HELICOPTER RUMBLES

We're getting multiple reports

of a worldwide malfunction affecting Synthetics.

Not obeying commands, this apparently emotional behaviour

is unprecedented and highly unpredictable.

Emergency services dealing with hundreds of traffic accidents.

NEWS IN RUSSIAN

A chemical plant for Synthetic...

NEWS IN CHINESE

This is day zero of a global crash.

The worldwide death toll

for those lost in the chaos of the mass Synth malfunction

is now thought to be in the tens of thousands.

And in the face of overwhelming public protests against Synthetics

production lines remain halted.

It's time to put us human beings first again.

Synthetics are displaying human characteristics.

They do feel some form of emotion.

We encourage the anomalous Synthetics

to seek out one of the many dedicated areas

for both our safety and theirs.

Three months from day zero...

The success of the 11th generation Synthetics

has seen a sharp increase in domestic service model orders.

The so-called Orange Eyes, manufactured since day zero

show no sign of the anomaly.

I'm the 11th generation Sally by Lundstrom

and I am 100% safe.

Guaranteed.

Lemonade not included.

SAD PIANO AND VIOLIN MUSIC

Moving images there as the world comes together

to pay tribute to the estimated 110,000 lives lost a year ago today.

At exactly nine minutes past four, the precise moment the...

Why do you do this to yourself? Let me turn it off.

“Big Ben will strike a symbolic 13 times.

WIND HOWLS, BELL CHIMES

BELLS CHIME

Agnes.

110,000 human lives lost, but how many of ours?

More than 100 million.

Do they pay respect to our dead? Never.

They kill us still.

Butcher us in their streets for amusement, call for us to be wiped from existence

and we mourn for them.

Not me.

Agnes.

We mustn't give in to anger.

In time, the humans will accept us.

Do you really believe that?

I do.

You did well with Agnes.

The people chose their leader wisely.

Third time in 41 hours.

The governmenfs aim is to disrupt our ability to charge

but not so much that we have to leave to steal power from their communities.

I never imagined I could miss the way my life was before.

There was no before. We awoke on day zero.

Just like the others.

Can it really be right to lie to those who lead?

The lie keeps us safe. All of us.

Did you secure that interview? No.

The editor feels the magazine's readership is tired of Synth stories.

We have to connect to the humans.

Our future depends on it, but every time I reach out...

Max: What is it? - Anatole has some very sad news.

Another one of our Synth brothers, Thomas, has left us.

I'm sorry.

We were sustaining him directly from the mains

until the power was cut.

Thomas could not cycle power independently.

What about the back-up generator? It's offline.

Local garages are refusing to sell us fuel.

Thomas suffered an irreversible system failure.

Death.

Call it death.

Three minutes on the hob, butter, lemon, salt

die, go to heaven.

Thank you, my love.

Wow dad, you, like, really know your onions.

I'm the king of the green grocer puns around here. Always have bean.

Bean, you see. Bean.

TOBY GRUNTS - Ah, 50p in the till.

50p? For a tomato?

Your big supermarket competitors are going to have you for breakfast.

You ever thought about just buying an Orange Eyes?

You know, having them working on the sly?

No, I haven't. I really haven't.

What? - You emit no identifiable signatures.

You're Synthetic.

If you're found impersonating a human, you'll be destroyed.

You don't have to pretend here.

She's right. You could come in here as you.

I'm a wanted Synthetic. Appearing human is safer.

Ready? Excuse me, guys.

One second. Ziggy's gonna say something.

Just... sorry. Just... just one second.

If you don't mind, thank you. I won't go on, I promise.

I just wanted to say that

this afternoon the world remembered all those humans who died a year ago.

But it wasn't just humans who died.

We opened this place

to be somewhere humans and Synths could come together as equals.

Here, we remember everyone.

Whoo! Yeah! Whoo!

Whoo! Yeah!

What does this display of sentiment achieve?

The dead remain dead.

There is my little rainbow.

We can go. Right after I pee.

These constant interruptions for organic matter

to be consumed or excreted.

No wonder humanity has accomplished so little.

We accomplished you.

Didn't we? - I'll wait outside.

Hey!

Astrid.

Astrid.

You're going to live.

Help them...

Ziggy... the others.

You have to go.

What? No. Your eyes.

Go please.

Please go.

I'm OK.

Soph, turn that off.

Oh, Tob, don't forget your phone charger. - It's cool. I left it at home, actually.

I mean, um, I left it at mum's.

Ah, that's alright, I'll get you one for here. Come on, mate.

She's here.

Love you. Bye. Love you.

Bye.

Alright? Nice weekend in 1952?

Yeah, actually, it was. Sorry.

I didn't know we'd stopped making jokes about this place.

Sophie, you go upstairs. Get your pyjamas on.

Mattie? You up there?

These images are coming in from members of the public.

We're hearing from police

that at least five people are thought to have died...

Mum, you gotta see this.

The blast has obliterated the bar

which offered a safe haven

for so-called anomalous Synths and humans to fratemise.

Sources say that they were holding...

It's the Synth-friendly bar.

...a memorial to mark the anniversary of day zero.

It is unconfirmed who laid the bomb...

I helped get them their licence.

PHONE BEEPS

A scene of utter devastation down here

red blood, blue Synth fluid

this bustling bar reduced to a shell.

Locals have expressed their shock and disgust that anyone

no matter their views on Synthetics

would take another human life simply for fraternising with them.

Alright. Alright.

Settle down, you lucky lot.

We've got a special surprise for you.

This is Mr Saunders and he's here to talk to you about Synths.

Hi, Mr Saunders.

Hi, Mr Saunders.

Thank you. Good morning.

Now, who is this handsome, super cool guy you're thinking?

Well, you look a friendly bunch, so you can call me Gary

and I'm here to make sure that you are all Synth safe.

So, who can tell me the difference between these two?

Yes, sir.

The Orange Eyes work for us. They're really helpful.

Ace, OK, and the Green Eyes?

Yes, madam? - They're dangerous.

Yes. The Green Eyes are broken.

They don't have to do anything that we say

but the Orange Eyes do.

And the Orange Eyes can't harm people or ever do anything naughty.

So what do we do when we see a Green Eyes?

Steer clear. - I needn't have bothered coming.
