What should we do with it? 6 00:02:11,615 --> 00:02:14,233 We'll worry about it tomorrow. It's late. Pizza? 7 00:02:14,518 --> 00:02:15,696 Sounds good. 8 00:02:17,354 --> 00:02:19,493 Whoa, there, Mr. Wayne. Anything wrong? 9 00:02:19,757 --> 00:02:22,887 No. Just trying to get out before they set the night alarms. 10 00:02:25,261 --> 00:02:27,465 No problem, sir. I'll walk you to your car. 11 00:02:27,731 --> 00:02:30,632 Thanks. The alarm system makes me nervous. 12 00:04:19,329 --> 00:04:23,191 - Did we set it off by accident? - No, sir. It's from upstairs. 13 00:04:26,570 --> 00:04:29,602 What the heck is that thing? 14 00:04:31,340 --> 00:04:34,122 Better not take any chances. Right this way, sir. 15 00:04:34,409 --> 00:04:36,994 Now, for your own safety, you stay put, Mr. Wayne. 16 00:04:38,579 --> 00:04:42,889 Stay put? I don't think so. 17 00:07:00,573 --> 00:07:02,645 Home. 18 00:07:23,460 --> 00:07:26,689 Intruder. Rectify.

Lucius, what's up? 23 00:08:46,101 --> 00:08:47,442 Bad news, my friend. 24 00:08:47,668 --> 00:08:51,377 They got away with all the prototype protein-silicon wafer chips from R & D. 25 00:08:52,106 --> 00:08:53,382 The design specs? 26 00:08:53,606 --> 00:08:55,548 Safe in the computer, thank heaven. 27 00:08:55,809 --> 00:08:58,362 The thieves can't duplicate the chips without them. 28 00:08:58,645 --> 00:09:01,808 We should discuss tightening security in case they come back. 29 00:09:02,148 --> 00:09:05,016 You're right. Ten minutes, Lucius. Thanks. 30 00:09:05,918 --> 00:09:08,340 Protein-silicon what, Master Bruce? 31 00:09:08,619 --> 00:09:11,935 It's called wetware. The cutting edge of computer research. 32 00:09:12,256 --> 00:09:16,183 - Sounds more like a line of swimsuits. - I'm talking about Al. 33 00:09:16,527 --> 00:09:20,999 Artificial intelligence. The missing link between computers and human thought. 34 00:09:21,366 --> 00:09:23,635 You mean machines that think? 35 00:09:23,934 --> 00:09:25,941 Yes, and with a will of their own. 36 00:09:26,503 --> 00:09:29,088 They could process raw data faster than we... 37 00:09:29,372 --> 00:09:33,462 yet be able to make the leaps of intuition that inspired our greatest minds. 38 00:09:33,809 --> 00:09:36,711 Sounds as if the human race could become expendable... 39 00:09:37,011 --> 00:09:40,011 except for butlers, of course. - Of course. 40 00:09:40,415 --> 00:09:44,790 When I told the mayor the nature of the theft, he insisted I oversee the investigation. 41 00:09:45,152 --> 00:09:48,021 Question is, where could the thieves sell this stuff? 42 00:09:48,322 --> 00:09:51,518 Beats me. The only other group researching Al on this coast... 43 00:09:51,825 --> 00:09:53,734 is Karl Rossum's team at Cybertron. 44 00:09:53,993 --> 00:09:55,585 I thought Rossum was retired. 45 00:09:55,828 --> 00:09:59,176 Karl went into semi-seclusion after the loss of his daughter. 46 00:09:59,499 --> 00:10:03,721 He taught me about electronics, but he's been more active in business lately. 47 00:10:04,103 --> 00:10:06,884 - I'll talk to him. - Dad, you in here? 48 00:10:07,973 --> 00:10:10,591 - Oops, bad timing. - Barbara, come in. 49 00:10:10,876 --> 00:10:14,520 You've grown. It's been, what, four years? 50 00:10:14,846 --> 00:10:17,595 Home from college for a visit. Made the dean's list. 51 00:10:17,881 --> 00:10:20,215 And who's your little friend? 52 00:10:22,085 --> 00:10:24,735 This is Woobie. My best friend since third grade. 53 00:10:25,021 --> 00:10:28,850 Dad can't seem to pick me up at the airport without bringing him along. 54 00:10:30,125 --> 00:10:32,426 Yes, well, he knows the way better than I. 55 00:10:32,762 --> 00:10:37,333 So you go talk to Rossum, and I'll start things moving on my end. 56 00:10:46,340 --> 00:10:49,187 Barbara forgot her bear. 57 00:11:29,445 --> 00:11:32,761 Bruce Wayne. I'm so glad you called. It's been years. 58 00:11:33,082 --> 00:11:35,951 I heard about the theft of those chips, my boy. 59 00:11:36,284 --> 00:11:39,001 You need better security. 60 00:11:41,456 --> 00:11:44,586 Just curious if anyone's tried to sell you any wetware. 61 00:11:44,893 --> 00:11:48,755 Afraid not. If anyone does, of course, you'll be the first to know. 62 00:11:49,163 --> 00:11:50,853 - Cappuccino? - Yes, thanks. 63 00:11:51,765 --> 00:11:54,764 I was wondering about your own Al research. 64 00:12:03,342 --> 00:12:04,716 Thank you. 65 00:12:12,116 --> 00:12:14,537 Nothing like a hot cappuccino and a foot massage. 66 00:12:15,253 --> 00:12:17,325 Now, let me show you my pride and joy. 67 00:12:20,091 --> 00:12:23,800 This is my greatest achievement.

The next duplicant is ready. 91 00:14:36,879 --> 00:14:41,515 - See to its placement tonight. - Of course. 92 00:14:56,095 --> 00:14:59,510 I'll get it, princess.

There must be a central computer. 134 00:20:32,027 --> 00:20:33,936 It will have the data I need. 135 00:20:34,196 --> 00:20:36,268 I see it. Prepare for interface. 136 00:20:42,838 --> 00:20:46,863 I will take it from here, Randa. You come home. 137 00:20:50,944 --> 00:20:53,813 Alfred?
