Remnant

Hey, are you OK?

Shh.

What's happening to me?

Are you OK?

Neural Control Interface, or NCI,

is a direct communication pathway

between the brain and the computer.

It allows us to monitor and repair

damaged neurons in the brain,

creating a perfect symbiosis

between man and machine.

Imagine a tiny needle containing a rolled-up mesh

that is directly injected into the human brain.

The mesh slowly unravels,

encompassing the damaged part of the brain.

We then implant a small,

wafer-sized computer chip

into the brain connect it with the mesh,

completing the neural net.

Let's take a closer look at the implications

of this technology.

All living things have a bio-electrical code.

Electrical signals that relate to patterns of growth.

What if the neural control interface

allowed us to change

the bio-electrical code in our cells

to repair or even regenerate?

The potential therapeutic applications

of this technology are immeasurable.

Mental illness, brain injury, or even paralysis

may one day be a thing of the past.

Imagine a world where people

with spinal injuries could walk again.

I know this might sound like science fiction,

but let me tell you, this technology,

it's here.

Now.

Start preparations, John.

Are you seriously going through with this?

Welcome back, Grace.

My name is Doctor Adriana Stone.

I'm the head of the neurological department

at Bio Neural Solutions.

You must have a lot of questions.

You are a lucky girl, Grace.

Why is my head so sore?

Just feel back here.

You touch it.

It leads to a small computer chip

that we implanted in your brain.

It allows us to monitor your brain function

and make any adjustments if required.

-I know- -What?

It's a lot to take in.

Grace, you were in a serious car accident.

The injuries were very severe.

We had to put you into an induced coma to keep you alive

until you were stable enough for the implant.

The implant's the only reason why you survived the accident.

They're lovely, aren't they?

Grace, I think that's enough for today.

Um... You're in good hands.

Rest up. We'll talk again tomorrow.

OK?

Hey, I'm really glad you called.

I didn't have much of a choice.

You're looking good, though.

How's your arm?

Really strange.

Doesn't feel part of me anymore.

What you went through,

I'm not surprised you feel that way.

Hey.

Where are we?

We're home.

Come on.

Hey.

You OK?

Yeah. I'm OK. I'm OK.

We don't have to stay here tonight.

We can find somewhere else.

Guess we're staying then.

Hey, Grace.

You in there?

I can't believe they finished the renovations.

Hey.

Hey.

Pillow still smells like Mum.

Your mum and dad...

cared more for me than my own parents did.

I know.

I'll always be thankful for that.

They loved you like one of their own.

The world is awake and you should be too.

Come on, time to get up.

Hello.

Wish you'd told me you were coming here.

I'm used to doing things on my own.

Thought we figured all this stuff out.

You OK?

OK, fine. Well, I'll go then.

You know where I am if you want to talk.

No, no, no, please...

Don't go.

I'm sorry, I...

Sometimes I feel like it's my fault.

What do you mean?

I was just so angry the night

they came after me and I...

Grace, you must have realised that's what they do.

Especially when you knew I was coming back

for Soph's funeral.

Hey. Hey, we were just worried about you, that's all.

If I hadn't have run away,

maybe they'd still be here.

Grace, I wish we could go back and change what's happened.

You know we can't.

Yeah.

It's just hard.

I know, I know.

And I'm so sorry.

For what?

For being so horrible to you all the time.

I can't even begin to imagine

what you're going through.

Hey? But I can sit next to you

and be with you through it.

Nothing else matters.

OK?

Come on, let's go for a walk.

-Yeah, OK. -OK.

-Yes. -Up we get.

-I am going to switch you. -I'm acting like...

- Yeah. - Madame.

Do you know who put those flowers there?

No clue.

Look nice though.

OK.

-So. -So.

-How's Ava? -Oh.

Yeah. Actually, not good.

Um, we broke up.

Oh.

I'm sorry.

-No, no. -I am. I didn't know.

It's fine, you know. It's whatever.

It's cool.

When I decided to leave,

I thought that relationships would be the easiest thing

because I could finally be me.

And it turns out that relationships

don't work that way.

So, there you go.

I'm really sorry.

It's fine.

And I hope it wasn't because of me.

No, no, of course not.

Look, it's actually been coming for a while now

and I just didn't see it, so.

-Why didn't you just tell me? -And put more on your plate?

Are you serious?

Well, when does she move out?

This week.

-Oh, OK. -Yeah.

That soon.

So I'll actually need to go back for a few days

-and sort some stuff out. -Yeah, yeah.

But only if you're feeling up to it.

Yeah. No, go. I'll be fine.

OK. Well, OK. We'll see how the next few days go.

Ooh. Are you OK?

Alright, I'm checking.

Just... Oh, that's nasty.

Ah.

Yeah, it's OK.

-Are you sure? -Yeah.

Hey! Who's that?

Go!

Are you sure?

Yes.

Go and see who's spoiling our solitude.

OK. All right. Don't take too long.

Oh my God.

Oh, it's so good to see you.

Look at that face.

How are you?

Good. Better now that you're here.

There you go.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Is Grace OK?

She's not in a good place at the moment.

She's been through a lot.

Yeah.

So...

How's the farm going?

Yeah, it's been a tough few years

with the drought and all,

so, um, I had to get some extra work in town.

Do you remember Brian from high school?
