- Hi, Calian.
- You came back! - Oh, you know I said I would.
- Your crazy hair--
I love it. - You do?
- I missed you. - I missed you, too, buddy.
[Calian speaks indistinctly] AISHA: Yeah.
NOAH: You're predictable, you know that?
- Doesn't surprise me a bit that she scares the living shit out of you.
- Did you do what I asked?
Abel?
- Yeah.

Come a long way to see me, Aisha. What can I do for you?

I won't tell anyone where I came from or what I am.
I came to prove that...
and to ask you if I can live--

[device beeps] - Anything else?
- No, that's it.

- You raised her? [chuckles]
Cool. How's that relevant?
It's my technology, my patent, created when you were under contract.
- That's what this is gonna come down to-- lawyers and patent rights?
- What this is gonna come down to
is a world where everyone is left to question the humanity
of their neighbors, their friends and family, even themselves.
Guys, it can't happen.
- So you're just gonna murder her? - Okay, Dad.
Murder her? [chuckles]
Do you want me to pull off her faceplate?
You want me to show you how the cameras in her eyes connect to here GPU
or the 63 ball bearings that make her feet work?
- I don't care.
SHARON: Noah... - You don't care?
SHARON: Noah, you and I can fix this, okay?
We can make her perfect. We can teach her to--
