"Well, the only monopoly... we have at N.U.R.V, is monopoly on excellence." "It is still a free market." "But a free market encourages competition You prevent it" "You don't need to remind you the essence of competition is always been quite simple," "Any kid working in a garage anywhere in the world with a good idea can put us out of business" "Let's try a communication scheme if you have a good driver.."

"Garry Winston" "Ha, that would be funny" "I just spoke to Garry Winston?" "I can't believe you are not going to take that ticket" "Give it to me!" "You don't want to work there, Brian" "They squeeze everybody out of business, they get bigger and fatter" "That's why I want to work there" "You sure he didn't ask for my number?" "Milo, we can't go up there" "They don't even know the meaning of open source" "You know this, we have talked about this" "They just want to own everything" "They clone stuff, they reverse engineering it" "I, I know. / Everybody is stuck with their inferior proprietary version" "They are being investigated by the justice department for christs' sake" "Tell him, Harry" "I think that he should go up there and check it out if he is curious" "You do?"

"We're not going to campus." "All I can say is it's unfortunate, we offered a lot of money." "A substantial amount of money, Gary, no sell" "Can we buy into their stock?" "Or is that a justice department problem too?" "There is no stock, Randy I mean there's no company" "Garry Winston's office May I help you?" "Thanks for holding."

" No, thanks" "Come on in" "Digital canvas" "The house knows the paintings I like, knows my favorite music, same for anybody else that's in the system" "There's a little sensor that defects who's in the room" "Doesn't Bill Gates have something like that?" "Bill who?" "ha, ha. ah, no, no. his is primitive." "So I understand you are thinking of doing a start up" "Yeah." "My friends and I have been planning on doing a media delivery system for a long time" "It would be open source, we offer it free to everybody, just charge for tech support." "Wow, free." "It's a cut-throat business we're in Milo" "It's just a matter of time before someone borrows your technology, improves it and makes a billion dollars on it." "What would you do with a billion dollars Milo?" "Mmm, I don't know" "I'll tell you what you could do" "You could take that money and put it back into technology, education, the arts" "You can transform culture" "I founded opera companies, symphony orchestras, museums, theatres, .." "I have donated thousands of computers to schools through out the country" "The question really is," "How many of the people you share discoveries with will be outulistic?" "and how many will make fortunes of your generosity?" "Come on in here" "Check this out." "huh" " This is the SYNAPSE satellite." " You bet." "I have 240 of these up there 12 different orbital patterns, 20 satellites, mother satellite of each ring passes over us every night at 10 o'clock to allow for station keeping, re-programming, etc." "They in turn pass the data along to the sister satellites in their realm" "That's the coolest I ever seen." "I'm total wrapped up in this" "It's like I've got my mission control right here on my PC" "Activation codes, IP address, flight pass.." " It's the best train set ever, hum?" " You bet" "We've loaded a back door to receive SYNAPSE transmissions and all of our OS software for the past 6 years," "We've developed compression schemes and file formats that achieve connectivity, but.." "We have a problem" "You know what that problem is?" "Ah, your adaptors can't overcome the band width limitation of wireless hand helds" "That's right" "Data takes too long to download so your image get's.." "Image, ah, goes fuzzy" " Fussy, yeah," " Ha ha" "Can you get this done in time to meet your date?" "With you, I can" "So I understand your friend Teddy is kind of attached to his parents." "It's very commendable" "Ah, the truth is he's ah.." "Milo, I know, he thinks we're cloned too many programs an forced people to buy our inferior versions and blah, blah, blah.." "add infinite item and nauseousm" "I've heard it all before." "I even understand it, it's the nature of competitive business." "When you're on top people attack the quality of your product." "It comes with the territory" "So when the attacks get personal that Gary Winston is satan web sites, digitising my wife's face on porn star bodies" "I don't like that" "You're one of maybe twenty programmers in the world with the mastery it going to take to finish this thing" "We'd love for you to join us" "The future holds limitless possibilities, Milo" "You decide what the future holds for you." "Let me know" "You know I look at you and see something I haven't seen in 20 years" " What?" " I see me!" " Alice" " Umm," "So when is Brian coming from the T.V?" "I don't know" "I'm going to leave you two alone, o.k?" "Why are you doing this?" "Teddy, come on" "He can't hit his date without you, can he?" "Remember that lecture Ginnings gave?" "about open source" "Yeah" "He said human knowledge belongs to the world" "Like Shakespeare or Asprin" "Teddy, I know you are disappointed," "I just feel like this is the right thing to do for now," "They were interested in you too, Gary even mentioned you" "Yeah, well.." "I'm not interested in them" "That's fine." "I get what's important to you" "This is important to me." "And I know your are going to get your venture capital" "We did, We had to settle for 850, because we lost you" "So, it will be enough." "It'll be enough because they got you" "We're both going to do something great" "Sure" "I just thought we were going to do it together" "Milo, this is Mr. Barton from the..." "Department of Justice" " Sorry about the glass" " No problem" "How are you, Milo." "I am here as a friend" "I understand you signed up with Gary Winston" "You know Milo, we're at a great disadvantage with NURV" "I mean our experts are not as smart as theirs" "The truth is we could do with a real smart guy on our team to help pick our fights" "Ha, I'm going to take a real shot in the dark here, O.K?" "I can offer you $42,000 a year and a Buick if you change your mind and join us." "I'm hoping you have a feeling that is the right thing to do" "Well, I'm sure what you're doing is important, Mr. Barton" "I just fell like this is a..."

"Nobody knows anything about it, uh." "You know, so does he have some genius stored away somewhere?" "And if does, why not let him write SYNAPSE?" " I not saying if makes any sense..." " Hey!" "Honey" "Sesame Seeds." "Jesus." "Excuse me..." "Could you take that away, thank you" " I'm so stupid" " Hey!" "He is a genius." "Don't forget." "If anybody other than you could write this thing as quickly as you're saying wouldn't it maybe be him?" " Yes, yes, you are right," "The guy's a genius, SYNAPSE is all he cares about and I'm being over sensitive for a change" "To geniuses" "You know what?" "Sometimes it helps to get out of here."

"We don't take anything seriously, do we?" "It's not on the hard drive." "Hey, I didn't know you guys were working with fiber optics." "We're just a bounch of crazy assholes." "And he was on the verge of something." "He was right there." "He was going to show us the next day." "He told me, I should get the VC to line up appointment with a bunch of companies." "You know." "He said, the answer is not in the box." "It's in the band." " You know I called him last week to uh..." "'cause..." " I know." "He was happy you did." "Be strong, Larry" "Milo." " May I join you?" " Yeah" "Heard about what happened." " I'm very sorry." " Thanks" "Had you talked to him... much, lately?" "Just once." "Things weren't that great between us and we couldn't talk about work because it was off limits." "Did you have something you wanted to show me?" " Look. we can save it for another day." " No, it's okay." "I.." "it will help take my mind off things." "Really" " Yeah. yeah" " Okay." "Well, I haven't been able to sleep all week." "Thinking about the push mechanism in the handler."

"So what are you saying?" "You think they have something to do with Teddy's death" "I don't know what I am saying, all I know is all these ideas keep flying in." "He says that any kid working in his garage could put him out of business," "It's almost like they know what every kid is doing." "They're hacking into people's computers." "I guess they can get into some people's machines, but, not ..not Teddys." "He always had the most paranoid firewalls to protect his data." "They'd have to been like watching him physically" "Watching him physically." "Oh shit" "I think it is part of a camera" "Number 21 isn't just a broadcast studio." "It's a surveillance post or something." "That's why they have those disks on the roof." "Milo, think about that you're saying," "You honestly think that he would murder somebody?" "I don't know, I gotta get in there" "There's over 20 buildings over there, and they all filled with computers" "No no no, this is the only one with disks on the roof" "The studios a front," "That's why they keep postponing the opening." "Ok, now you're scaring me." "Do you wanna just go?" "'Cause we can go, you wanna just..." "leave" "Go where, go where Alice?" "You can't get away from people like this!" "People like this." "This is Gary you are talking about" "You don't think I know that?" "They're under investigation by the Justice Department" "I mean, you said yourself that there are guys showing up all the time." "Then how could they possibly hope on hiding a surveillance force," "How could they hope on hiding anything, You can't get in there anyway, they have swipe cards, they have cameras, I mean it's like Fort Knox for christ sakes" "I'm implicated, I'm implicated Alice No, you're not" " Yes, I am." " No, you're not" " No" "Yes, who's been using this code, huh?" "Teddy's code." "Whoever code this is." "I have, how do you think that makes me feel?" "This is my best friend," "You need to calm down, now" " I can't just walk away from this" " Yeah, but you can't just walk in either." " You're right" " Yeah" "You're right" "Uh.. the construction is finished by 6 or 7, the parking lot is cleared by 2 or 3 in the morning." "Even the earliest geeks don't get is till 5." "Honey, what are you talking about?" "What, what are you saying right now?" "Listen to me, I thinking about how I gotta get in there and find out what the hell is going on." "Okay but was it true or was it true, did you ever really notice, you're just sounding like a mad man." "I won't pretend like everything is okay, Alice that's how I got into this mess" "I, just tell like.." "Alice listen, listen," "I'm not, I don't mean to, I'm not mad at you, listen to me," "I think I can figure out a way to get in there." "But I can't do it on my own, so I need you to help me." "What am I to do ?" "So you believe me?" "Just tell me what to do." "Whoa, whoa , whoa, Whoa, Sir, you got to use your own." "Where's your ID?" "I caught him tailgating." "Building 20." "These cards are your own responsibility" " There was an explosion in the closet in buiding 12" " What?" "Hey, you can't wander around without ID, just park your ass in that chair" "Well, what can I tell ya ?" "It's pretty basic operation guide" "You got your time clock, fuse goes in here you just hook it in the switch over here" "So, what we got here Bob?" "Some glorified cherry bomb, some geeks' idea of fun." "I've been saying we need a camera in this hall" "To protect what, the mops?" "somebody is pulling the chain again Bob." "Unless it's a diversion, Milo Hoffman is in my office." " He was tailgating" " Bob." "Milo is not just another geek" "He is very important to Gary, So let's not go there, all right?" "Okay, we'll see you later" "Is everything okay, Bob?" " Hey!" " Hi Gary" " Working kinda late, huh?" " Yeah , uh.." " Can I take a look ?" " Yeah" " Oh, that's nice." "That's excellent." " Thanks." "You seem kinda jumpy, Milo." "No." "I'm just a...." "I'm a little surprised to see you out here, now." "Well, I like to sneak in late at night sometimes to see who the obsessive ones are" "Don't work too late." "I got my eye on you" " How's it going?" " Big night switched from tea to coffee." "Brought new meaning to my work." "Well, now he knows." "Nothing in there." " Maybe he'll get back to work now." " Yeah, copy that." " Speaking of which." " Okay." "I'm on my way back." " Did you download code San Jose." " Oh shit." "I'll do it." " Shame we can't just walk in the front door." " Yeah, wouldn't Bob love that." "Ooh!" "Jesus" "Yes, I gonna need a thorough background check." "I want to know every organization he's been involved with, church groups, all.." " Ahh, Mr. Barton?" " Yes" "Excuse me, uh.."

"Thank you for seeing me, Sir" " No problem, have a seat" " I'm ok." "You look a little upset" "I am Sir, I am" "What's the problem, son" "Ah..well, my friend, my best friend Teddy" "He was killed in Silicon Valley and I.." "I thought maybe there is some way I could help find the suspects" " You mean Teddy Chan" " Yes, Sir" "Well, I guess you didn't see the 11 o'clock news last night" "San Jose police picked up a suspect and they're holding them without bail" "That's great." "That's um.." "I hope I'll sleep better tonight" "Well um, I'm a little disappointed I thought that you decided to join our side." "No Sir, no, I'm a real happy there at NURV." "but um.." "Thank you and thank you for your time." " So he didn't mention he was going to the Justice Department?" " No" "You're not losing your hold on him, are you, Rebecca?" "Don't forget your part of the deal." "You got a very good thing going here." "Phill, he'll tell me when he gets back." "Well, that will be the test, won't it?" "Prick" "It's l0 o'clock, I've been so worried about you" "What did you see in there?" " Nothing." " Nothing?" "It's exactly what they said it is, an unfinished broadcast studio" "You know, I think I've been putting my own guilt on Gary" "Guilt?" "Yeah." "If I've done the start up, Maybe Teddy would still be alive." "Or maybe you would be dead, too." "Anyway, I figure instead of evolving all these paranoid delusions and scaring you I should do something useful with my grief." "So I went to see that guy Barton at the DOJ." "Do you remember him?" "Yeah" "I wanted to see if I could help him find Teddy's killers and it turns out they got the guys last night so.." "I have been so worried about you" "You were right to let him break into 21" "He felt pretty foolish afterwards" "He said it was all to do with his own guilt you know." "Not being there." "No doing the start up" "I mean his best friend was just killed." "You're convinced he is completely focused on SYNAPSE again." " He's not acting?" " No he is pretty honest with his feelings" "I don't think he knows how to act." "Alright?" "Good." "That's all for now." "Lisa, I had to tell someone." "They know everything about everybody." "There're stealing code from all over the place." "And sometimes, if someone gets ahead of them, like Teddy" " It's all undetectable." " What?" "The crimes are hand tailored." "These guys are in the information business." "It's a Chinese guy, frame a local racist." "Plus, I'm sure Gary has maximum deniability." "He tells his people, surprise me, solve the problem, defy me, they turn around and tell the next person the same things." "That sounds crazy why would he put himself on the line like that?" "SYNAPSE SYNAPSE" "SYNAPSE SYNAPSE the guy has invested billions on getting there first." "He will do anything to get his date He has to...." "Lisa, they killed my best friend" "Maybe others" "I'm living with someone they pay to sleep with me" " we have to do something" " Like what, what could we possibly do" "I don't know yet." "But we are one step ahead of them they don't know I've been in the Daycare center, Just 21." "They let me do that." "That's all they know though." "Lisa" "I'm sorry, Milo" "Alright?" "I'm sorry" "Lisa, I know why you won't let anyone near you." "I know what he did to you" "If you leave now, you could be in danger" "They would use my step father" "They could frame him if they had too, yeah." "What about the FBI?" "Too risky" "I went to the DOJ, but they got a guy on payroll over there, maybe others." "Who knows who there're paying?" "Well, who can we trust?" "I mean how do you let go of a secret without telling the wrong person?" "I don't know" "We tell everybody at once" "See, that way there is no secret left to protect." "If everybody knows, they can't touch us." "Right" "What about 60 minutes?" "CBS news is partnered with NURV information system in a cable news network due to launch Fall of June,2001" "AOL-Time Warner has a 40% stake in Gary's setup device and it also takes out CNN.." "Disney Join NURV's adventure ABC is out" "Look, any of these places could a more or all of them" " Wait" " What?" "How close are you to finishing SYNAPSE?" "He's got all the satellites up." "There's dishes on top of 21." "He's building this mega network just for SYNAPSE." "We can connect to everybody on every device simultaneously." "That's what SYNAPSE is" "That's what we'll use ..." "Got him." "So what's in the Daycare Center is a top of raw material that's all over the place" "What I need you to do is design some kind of a graphic format so people could follow what there're seeing" "No problem" " Shit" " What?" "I would have to get into Gary's house to get the satellite address." "He's running the whole thing from his work phone." "You mean break in?" "I don't know, I don't know..." "And what if the dishes on top of 21 aren't hot yet the place isn't even finished." "I'll go up" "You're not afraid?" "testing.." "UPLINK ACTIVE.."
