Here it is: Hub Battle Land.
They show pain and horror.
You will have an assistant. You will manage the facility.
-Won't you have some? -A little water only.
-Dad... -That was not the intention. Do you have children?
-No, but I love kids. -I'll call you.
There are perhaps only two of us left. Do not forget who you are: a child of David.
Humans are controlled by their emotions.
I love you...
-The code is gone. -David's mother called sometimes.
And... she might still be alive.
-Hey, it's parent-teacher at Sofia's school on Thursday. -Oh?
-I'll do it then. DOOR BELL RINGS
-Tobbe needs money for shoes. -I'll give it to him.
-Mom! For you! -Coming.
-What's this? -A hubot. -Sign please.
-Did you order one? -No.
-Tobbe, help. -We have to see what it is.
-What's this? -I have no idea.
Careful, we might have to return it.
Oh, god...
Grandpa!
Do you live here or are you visiting someone?
I'm visiting...
-Are you Beatrice? -I'm Beatrice. Help me.
My name is Cloette. I'm here to make you better.
You are leaking. The battery is overheated.
Clott! Clott!
She must not see me.
-Clott? Clott! -Cloette is coming.
-Clott, where are you? -I'm here.
-Did you buy some apricot jam? -Yes.
I'll come up with jam, tea and toast for Greta.
-Is there anyone here? -No. It's just you and me.
KNOCK
-Are you there? It's me. -Come in.
Hey! Hey.
Well, I was going to go see a movie tonight.
Really...
Yes... and I wonder if you want to join me.
I'm good.
So it's... a no?
Yes.
Or no. I won't go.
All right. I just wondered.
All right.
By the way... stupid question, but was there anyone here last night?
No.
Okay. Sorry.
Will you start him?
It's just...
...look at him.
I need to talk to somebody before we do this.
I'm not sure if I want to.
It comes with a 30 minute support call with a dealer.
-If I could just... -When do we start up grandpa?
-We'll see, honey. -Can we do it now? -Later.
But tonight, then? Tomorrow?
Yeah... what the hell were you thinking?
Wait, I'm not finished.
-If you leave the table, you are done. -Not always.
What's up?
Nothing.
Tobbe, grandpa is in... or copy of him... in the garage.
-I know. When should we start him? -Your mother hasn't decided.
I do not want any tinkering with the... him...
-Even to start him? -Yes, yes. Rather no, even that.
-You don't do chores. -I had nothing to do. Sorry.
You can help if you want.
-I know I do not have to. -I know you know.
Mimi, do you want to hang with me at work today?
Do it! Join us to work! Come on!
Here.
Well... are you Betty?
-Yes. -They did not say you were a hub.
Training is usually done somewhere else. But come!
Here is how much there are on the pallet. Start by checking that it is correct.
Here, the total: 48 pieces.
-That's just one. -Yes, one pallet.
But it should be 48 pieces of orange crates.
-Are you refurbished, or something? -I do not know.
Follow me.
Follow me!
Yes, hello. I would like a technical support meeting.
No, it's a clone.
Yes, it is an Atsugi.
-Are you Inger's? -Yes.
Are you... artificial or real? I've always wondered.
-What are you doing? -Nothing.
You have a meeting. With Claes. Send her to me later...
-Sorry about that. He is a pig. -A what?
He is nasty. I thought you'll get to watch what I do.
-Fun, huh? -I do not know.
When you get below the surface...
-When you understand what it is about? -Exactly.
Right here is a draft contract on a large corporate merger.
It is quite complex.
I thought you might mark it for typos.
-Excuse me! -By all means.
-What is your name, friend? -Mimi.
-She's with me. -"Calas"...
No. Claes.
We can now proceed.
I just want you all to realize the significance of the agreement.
Be aware of the licenses and lease agreements.
There is a related contract. It must be reflected as well...
Be aware of the licenses...
There is a related contract...
Welcome to Atsugi Robotics!
Can you explain in more detail?
When you say daddy's "personality" is scanned... how do you mean?
Did you catch his soul, or whatever it is, and install it in a hubot?
By personality we mean the way he moves, his voice and his memories.
Pictures were added to his timeline.
-He never took a single picture. -Well, when I was little.
An exercise program is activated where he associates you with images of you.
His voice, movements and memories will be accessed.
But these "memories" are just a questionnaire, right?
With a few thousand questions in it.
What I really want answered is...
..."why." Why did he mortgage the house to create a clone?
-Maybe it's something he told you. -We don't have that information...
Who are you?
You're making a mistake. You do not live here. Get out!
This is my room.
Excuse me... excuse me...
Are you drunk? Are you high? How can you poison yourself when you have a child?
You'll see an online video of someone who has succeeded.
-Why is this so important? -How do you think I look?
Yes, it... is quite good.
Do you think I'm handsome? Attractive?
I look like a fucking freak.
No... no, then.
No woman wants to even look at me without being paid.
A hubot...
I want to be young.
I want to be a man. Promise not to tell anyone about this.
-Not tell? No, of course. -I have not told anyone.
But...
...I look at you as my... friend.
Same here.
I'll recreate it as my father's partner David Eischer managed to do
before he went crazy.
Do you think it's really possible to transfer consciousness into a hubot?
My...
my soul...
or spirit...
will be transferred... .
or transmitted. .
Coming from me to my new me. .
As soon as my old body is... ...completely dead.
It worked.
Honey?
Why didn't he say he would make a... clone of himself?
He didn't know he'd die so suddenly.
And we often do not see him.
There honey...
It was something he wanted.
Let's see!
Look at this...
We could have him as a garden gnome.
No, sorry!
-You... -I must sleep. I'm up early.
Sleep well.
Clott!
Cloette is coming!
-It was too big! -Take a big gulp of water.
When David comes on Saturday, make beef stew.
David will not. He's dead.
Where is this boat going? Not Alicante again!
I try to do it, but I tremble.
I'm right here.
NOISE
Now we went aground!
It was just a postal delivery.
You should not be up.
-I have to find him. -There is only us and Greta.
David... his clone...
After the fire, after her son died...
In the picture...
The older man... Greta's son.
I have never met her son. You leaks fluid.
Be still in landscape mode.
-Do you do skin-repair? -You need Hubmax hubfluid.
Give me a pen and paper.
That does not help. You need to go to a specialist.
Buy it here! How many hubots are in the apartment?
-Three. -Are you sure?
Affirmative.
KNOCK Who is it?
-The Management. -I'm busy.
To stay on account requires personal data.
I'll pay instead. I'll get you the money. Bye!
PHONE RINGING
-Douglas. -Hey, it's Florentine.
I've been preoccupied, but now I'm available.
So I came back, to try and start anew.
Awful...
-What are you doing tonight? -Tonight?
Tonight, I invited my parents... my dad to dinner.
Oh well.
But... come with?
Sorry, I'll...
I'll be... honest.
I really like you.
Well, we can go somewhere else tonight. I've scared you enough...
I'd love to meet your dad tonight.
-Okay. All right. You're serious? -Yes. I'd love to meet your dad.
-Have you no mother? -Yes. She passed away.
Two years ago.
-She died then? -Yes.
I can not understand you. You're funny.
You are special. And unique.
And...
... real.
-What are you eating? -A sandwich.
-Can't we afford real food? -Yes, but I try to be economical.
-Why did you leave that job? -Got tired.
You don't stop without doing something else.
-Don't you? -No.
Were you fired?
-I stopped. -Was your job taken by a hubot?
-You could say that. -And now we have nothing to eat! It's despicable!
-I am eat something! -You eat shit.
-Everything here is now hubot-made. -Move back to your mother, then!
-And stay with her pacman-doll? -I did not mean it. Sorry.
-Since when were you pro-hubot? -I'm not anything.
Things change. You get used to it.
I will get a job soon, I promise. I am looking all the time.
I love you. I want your best.
I love you too.
Do not take the "Real Humans" party too seriously.
Focus on school!
Should I just think of myself?
Think about what I said!
Ready for the game...
Then press there.
-Set for game... -More bass: Gaaame!
-Gaaame. -Gaaame...
GAAAME BEGINS!
Then you that flick down.
To make a small explosion...
Neat!
Some fanfare...
There we go!
Good!
Cord!
Watch the cord, what the hell!
-Maybe there is something left in the battery. -Or it is totally screwed.
-Odi, you have two batteries. -Have I?
All models do. You have the usual, then you have one that keeps you on standby.
I should do a hard reboot on you, but you know how it goes.
-No. -You'd lose everything.
All memories. You would not remember me or Luther...
-Everything would just disappear! -But there will be new memories.
Yes... you are right. Fine.
There's something wrong with her. She needs to be rebooted.
Huh?!
Hey, Ma... tilda. Hey, Be... tty.
-What are we gonna do today? -Get out!
-You're not hubot. -What?
Come on! Stop it!
All right.
This is the dumbest thing I have been through. Ever.
-You fell for it, right? -Who pretends to be a hubot? Just stupid.
-A little off, perhaps. -Little?
I know how to do the job. Get the goods, check off and into the shelves.
-You talked as if I was an idiot. -But you were an idiot!
-Are you one of those hubbies? -Absolutely not!
-Could've fooled me... -Hubbies use hubots.
They use them as sex slaves and what have you.
We are transhumans. We are equal with hubots.
You're no better than a hubot. You could say that all are hubots.
You are a biohub. Your brain is a chemical computer.
That is a common hub, a slavhub.
They're opressed, all these hubots being sold to people.
-So you do not own a hubot? -You can not own a hubot.
Wait...
-Do not tell me you have a slavhub! -She's not a slave.
Seriously... you can tell it like it is.
She really is not a slave.
My mom is like you - tolerant.
Dad is a bit prehistoric, but he has nothing to say.
My little sister thinks that hubots are from hubotland.
My brother is transhuman sexual (THS).
Are you sure he's just not good at getting girls?
No, he is THS. Though he does not really talk about it, so forget it.
Welcome!
Tobbe!
Hello! We thought about making tea. Want one?
Yes.
Hey! Hey.
My name is Betty.
Tobbe.
-Is Tobbe your nickname? -Yes.
Earl gray or rooibos?
Rooibos.
Betty is a hubot from work. She had to come home with me today.
All right.
I'll just go to the bathroom.
-So you may leave the store? -Yes.
If an employee takes responsibility. We have a new social software.
It gets better when we interact with people.
You have a really nice home.
Thank you.
You also seem very nice, Tobbe.
Same to you.
Do you have a girlfriend, Tobbe?
I have to get her back to the store before they close.
-What are you talking about? -I asked if Tobbe had a girlfriend.
Betty, you flirt!
-Wait, Tobbe... -F*** you!
Take it easy. The enemy surrounds us.
-24 Points! What did you get? -15.
I got 11.
Hey. Welcome to the Hub Battle Land.
Did you work before? And what did you do?
I was a floor layer for 20 years. Then I was a foreman in a warehouse until now.
-Foreman? You are there now? -No, I've stopped.
-What? Voluntary? And now...? -I wanted to try something new.
What do you like about this place, then?
It looks... stimulating. EXPLOSION
Hi-hi-hi...
Have you worked with hubots before?
Yes, a lot. At the warehouse were many.
-You will not be foreman here. -I get it.
Got a problem with what people might say about working here?
-It's only normal. -What? What is? What is normal?
Everyone has opinions about everything.
Including this job.
Not everyone likes it.
-Is this place yours? -I'm a partner.
The job begins today. If you can. Otherwise tomorrow. What do you say?
Have I got the job? I start at once!
Why complicate things unnecessarily?
Come, I'll show you.
EXPLOSION
Odi: Hi-hi-hi...
Here are the last ones. Take this.
Point and press. Try it.
Sunday is pure paintball. Mixed teams with seven members.
Come on!
We call it a blacklist, but it's nothing illegal.
Some say that it is illegal...
...but conspiracy or incitement must contain some form of call to action.
We only list companies that use hubots instead of humans.
One place, Hub Battle Land...
Should we joint it? Men shoot at hubots.
That can hardly be a job for humans.
The company that kicked my dad...
-Keep going, keep going! -Kevin?
The company should absolutely be up on the list.
Now you're all wondering about the lady that just came in.
Hi, everybody! My name is Eva Marshes.
I am the spokesperson for educational matters. I have books for you.
Would you please pass it around?
"Walden" by Henry David Thoreau.
Read it! It's about what it is to be a real human being.
The book is the basis for a course I'll be teaching: Real Human Fundamentals.
It's for those of you who want to be involved with the party.
-What is your name? -Adam.
-Member? -Of course.
-Are you going home now? -Guess so.
-Hey! Tanja. -It's Conny.
-It's Conny BoresjÃ♪, the party leader. -And my dad. Come on!
-Yes, the same. -Hey, Conny! Oscar.
-Oscar. Nice... -Hey! Vanya.
-Hey honey. Has it been good? -Yes. This is Kevin.
-Hey! Conny. -Kevin.
-You want a ride? -Please.
Hop in!
Excuse me, is this hubot-free? It might not be.
-There, "hubotfri". -Thank you!
This opinion poll is not published yet, but...
According to the... we take 8-10 percent.
In the autumn elections, it will happen. We can get into parliament.
We need you youth in the campaign. We need you in the future.
-It was wonderful, darling. -There was no hubotfri asparagus.
-Was it okay for you to eat this? -Yes. Sure.
Kevin!
Kev, I have good news. Kev?
-Kevin will attend the "Real Human Fundamentals" course. -Of course.
-In the new study center. -Tell us who funded it!
-We got a donation. -Several million! Nobody knows from whom.
I know. I have met her.
She wants to remain anonymous. She lives far out in the country.
She has left our modern world. She does not want to get involved.
She lives the primitive life...
...like a real human.
DOOR BELL RINGS
-Hey, hey! -Come in!
What, no kiss?
I will cook the food, Albert is with his mom and father will come soon.
I had a gift for Albert.
A model kit USS Massachusetts BB-59.
Thank you!
DOOR BELL RINGS
Hello! Hey. Come in.
I'll take your coat.
So, what is that smell? Such promising scents!
-Here's Florentine. -Nice to meet you.
Pleased to meet you! Claes is my name.
-Are you really Douglas' dad? -Yes.
-Is he a mixed kind? -Douglas is adopted.
-You have not said. -It's not something you think about.
No, we don't think about it. How nice to meet you!
Tobbe?
Okay, I'm going in now.
You...
Sorry. I mean that.
-Was that something you had planned? -She had me fooled too first.
She likes to play hubot.
They are transhuman.
Did you tell her I'm THS?
Did you?
-Yes. -It's private!
-I want to decide who gets to know. -But... she's one of those.
-She is not THS. -She's cool with that kind of stuff.
I said it because I wanted her to know that we are similar.
Okay, sorry.
Did she think I would hit on her?
-Admit that you went for it! -That question is the worst insult.
I am proud that you are THS. It is cool.
-That's not cool. -But it's... different.
Do not try to fix me up with hubots. Especially not fakers.
And I don't flirt with anything that runs on batteries.
He's not just your dad. He is the children's grandpa and my father in law also.
And? -Well, should we not...?
Start him up?
Aren't you a bit curious? How he is?
We can not have him just lying in the garage.
It feels very strange.
And very uncomfortable. And necessary - I get that too.
-But... -But?
-Not today. -No?
-Tomorrow. -Tomorrow?
We can wait till tomorrow, I think.
By god, you scared!
I liked being at your office.
-I'd love to go more often. -Yeah!
-Can I borrow the statute book? -Of course!
David, have you moved the dates?
David!
David?
David!
David?
David, darling. I need help. That hat rack that I bought...
Is David here?
Out.
You can not be here!
-Everything is good. I'm here. -Beatrice feel free to visit David.
But she can not stay here. I don't like it!
There's nobody here, Greta.
-Nope... -Come on.
"Increase the heat."
"Turn off the unit and let it lie at room temperature for 12 hours. "
You start me in the morning. Did you hear what I said?
I will start you in 12 hours.
All the best, Niska
I had to end my career as dressage rider when I broke my back.
For three years I lay in nursing homes. Dad became ambassador in Hong Kong.
There we moved last.
My parents and my two brothers are buried in the Church of England there.
But... oh, then. My little friend. I regret. I really regret.
I learned Mandarin there.
Mandarin? Yes, yes...
-We have to finish eating. -I'm stuffed.
-Tell me about when Douglas was a kid. -Yes, we must do.
Do you know what he called his first potty? Pill bucket!
Pill bucket...
"Where is the pill bucket?"
I like that. Potty.
-You should get a kettle. -Oh, novelties.
It was pleasant. I really like your dad.
Did I do well?
Well, you're absolutely perfect and utterly... irresistible.
I have... I have something to give you.
Yeah... I do not know what to say...
but...
thank you.
Thanks for tonight.
Ouch... ouch... ouch!
What the hell...?
