- [Reporter] Throughout
the history of medicine,
we have witnessed some incredible
milestones and miracles,
but now it looks like
we may be on the verge
of one of the most important
medical discoveries
of the century, thanks
to Dr, Jane Dunning,
also known as the mother of neurosurgery,
and her team of researchers,
- Thank you very much, on
behalf of my colleagues,
Well, let's just say that
we may have already crossed
the threshold, although it's
taken us nearly 10 years
and the whole story is
still rather experimental,
[Jane chuckles]
After many obstacles and dead ends
this Aftermath Project has encountered,
we are now able to really
get to the bottom of it all,
for the first time,
We had to realize that we
only saw a very small part
of the entire picture, so far,
[Jane chuckles]
Several tests and the
most accurate calculations
are still needed to be able to say
exactly what we have
achieved, but I dare say
that we have managed to
reach new dimensions,

She'll give you a shudder than
you'll never forget, no no
When the night comes
[phone rings and vibrates]
- [Kate] Kate speaking,
- [Robbie] Kate, what
the hell is happening?
You were supposed to hand
in the material last night,
You know very well that
this was the third deadline,
- I am well aware of that, yes,
- [Robbie] But then-
- Do you know why I know that, Robbie?
It's Robbie, right?
- [Robbie] Um, yeah, but-
- 'Cause probably I'm the only person
who's been working on this
crap for nearly five years,
while board members are being changed
like b*tches in the Hefner house,
- [Robbie] Kate, I didn't,,,
- I'm sure you do not,
How long have you been the head of R&D?
For three weeks?
Four?
- Two and a half, but-
- Exactly,
If I had a dollar for every
deadline I've been screwed with,
I could retire,
So tell the CEO and everyone
else that it will be ready,
because I always deliver,
And thanks to my work,
we'll be able to throw
hundreds of thousands
of dollars in commission
at each other at the end of the year,
while I've been working on
the same crappy computer
for what, five years now?
So, do me a favor and don't
call me every 10 minutes,

- Come with me,
or else there'll be nothing
left of you by tomorrow morning,
- Thank you,
Thank you for saving me,
- It won't be worth much,
if you don't get up now,
and we don't get out of here,
Let's hurry,
They'll be here soon,
[footsteps recede]
[birds chirp]
- [Kate] Wait a minute,
- If you don't want to get
caught by those arseholes,
you better hurry up,
There's a hideout not too far from here,
where we can rest for a while,
- [Kate] What is this place?
- I don't know,
- How did you get here?
- I woke up here,
I can't remember anything at all,
I don't know what happened to me,
I only found a necklace and a
photo of a woman in my pocket,
Have you checked your pocket?
[dark music]
- [Kate] This is me, and also my,,,
[Kate groans]
[high-pitched tone rings]
- Don't close your eyes,
It will only get worse,
Don't close your eyes,
It'll go away on its own, in a minute,
[dark music swells]
[eerie music]
- [Kate] How did you know that?
- I had the same thing happen to me,
[dark music continues]
Your family?
- [Kate] I don't know,
- She's a beautiful girl,
[dark music continues]
- "Sophie, Kate and Peter,"
- You remember your name now?
[eerie music]
- [Peter] Kate, honey?
- Yes?
[Kate gasps]
- Kate,
My name is Kate,
- That's half the battle,
- What's your name?
- Bubba,
- And your memory?
I mean, you know who you are?
- Let's go,
The hideout is not far from here,
[Kate sighs]
[faint eerie music]
- [Alpha] She has a companion,
- [Gamma] More fugitives
have been caught, sir,
- [Alpha] Go back and wait for the order,
- [Gamma] Yes, Commander,
Move,
[eerie music continues]
[button clicks]
[hologram chirps]
- Status report,
- We're very close, sir,
- I'm sure I don't need to
tell you how important it is
we find this target,
- [Alpha] I am aware of the
gravity of the situation,
- You'll only really know, Commander,
when the target starts to remember,
And have no doubt, she will remember,
- [Alpha] We will stop her, sir,
- Sooner or later, she
finds what she's looking for
and that could be fatal for
this place, and for all of us,
The clock is ticking, Commander,
[birds chirp]
[Bubba sighs]
- Take this,
I took it from one of the soldiers,
- Thanks,
[Kate gulps]
[Kate gasps]
Thank you,
[Kate gasps]
How did you find this place?
- Like I said,
I woke up not too far from here,
- What is this all about?
I mean,,,
What is this place?
And why us?
- I don't know,
But that's not the only interesting thing,
Do you have a watch?
What's the time?
- [Kate] 11:07,
[Bubba gulps]
- And now?
- But I just-
- And now?
- [Kate] What the hell?
What the hell is happening here?
This is impossible,
- I'd be worried about that, too,
Not just those dickheads,
- Maybe this is all
some kind of experiment,
and we are the subjects,
- Maybe,
We can't rule that out,
- Have you seen anyone else but us?
I mean people who didn't
have itchy trigger fingers,
- No one,
Could she be your wife?
- I don't know,
Maybe,
I,,,
I just feel that she's
very important to me,
Deep inside,
These photos cannot be coincidental,
A memory for you, a memory for me?
There must be a reason,
[Kate winces]
[dark music]
[high-pitched tone rings]
It's almost over,
It's almost over,
[dark music continues]
[engine roars]
It's almost over,
- It was an accident,
I was sitting in my car and
suddenly there was another car,
right in front of me,
- When I woke up,
where I woke up-
- Yeah?
- There was a car,
The front was damaged and
there was a big smoke,
I wanted to take a closer
look, but I got distracted,
- Do you know where the car is?
- Yes, I do,
It's not too far from here,
- Then let's go,
Let's not wait any longer,
Come on!
Let's go, now,
- I have to find her first,
From here, if you go straight ahead,
you have to cross two small clearance,
After the second one,
keep right along the forest
path and you'll find the car,
- What about you?
- I can take care of myself,
Take this,
It's easy to handle,
Aim and sh**t,
But you only have three b*ll*ts left,
So be careful,
- We shouldn't split up,
- I know,
Find the car,
See if you can find the
answers to your questions,
And we'll meet back
here, in two hours time,
Be very careful,
They may be watching you from the air,
If you see them, hide,
We have to focus on
finding a way out of here,
We don't stand a chance against them,

- Hi, Kate,
It's,,,
- [Kate] Dad?
- Martin,
Your phone is switched off, so,
I'm trying to send you this message,
Pete just called a few minutes ago,
Look, [sighs]
I don't know what's going on
between you two right now,
and I wouldn't like to get into it,
I know it's not my business anymore,
but as soon as you get this
message, give him a call,
He is
very worried about you,
I can hear it in his voice,
[Martin sighs]
They are your family, Kate,
They love you very much,
[Martin breathes deeply]
Okay, um,,,
We should also talk again at
some point, like we used to,
[Martin sighs]
Like father and daughter,
Call me anytime,
I'm always here,
[Martin chuckles]

- [Alpha] We have
terminated four fugitives,
- And the woman?
- We're looking for her,
- That's not good enough,
He k*lled Beta,
Don't wait until her
memories come back, because,
the consequences will
be severe to our world,
Failure is not an option,

This isn't happening,
This is impossible,
[Kate sobs]
This is impossible,
This cannot be happening,
Why?
Why me?
[Kate sobs]
[melancholy orchestral music continues]
Can please someone help me?
I don't know where to go,
[Kate sobs]
[Kate sobs]

In fact, I always knew,

- Bubba,
[melancholy piano music]
Oh, my God,
- Don't mind me
Leave!
- I won't leave you here,
- The way out is there, somewhere,
I followed the b*stards here,
Go on,
Now,
You are the key to all this,
One room, one look or another,
holds the answer to everything,
Go on,
Leave,
Now,
[Bubba pants]

You deserve not to die alone,

Peter?
Peter, where are you?
- [Reporter] Throughout
the history of medicine,
we have witnessed some incredible
milestones and miracles,
But now it looks like we
may be on the verge of one
of the most important medical
discoveries of the century,
Thanks to Dr, Jane Dunning,
also known as the mother of neurosurgery,
and her team of researchers,
- [Jane] Thank you very much
on behalf of my colleagues,
Well, let's just say that we may have
already crossed the threshold,
Although, it's taken us nearly 10 years
and the whole story is
still rather experimental,
[Jane chuckles]
After many obstacles and dead ends
this Aftermath Project has encountered,
we are now able to really
get to the bottom of it all,
for the first time,
We had to realize that we only saw
a very small part of the
entire picture, so far,
[Jane chuckles]
Several tests and the
most accurate calculations
are still needed to be able to say
exactly what we have
achieved, but I dare say
that we have managed to
reach new dimensions,
and to transform them,
The Aftermath Project has succeeded
in modeling the brain
activity of comatose patients,
and actually put their
minds in a new environment,
It's worth thinking of it
all as a kind of cryo-state,
in which the patient
can live a sort of life,
while their body and mind
continue to struggle to wake up,
However, the most effective way to do this
was always to place the
consciousness in question
in a familiar and usual context,

- Can't you see what is
happening to our family?
[Kate sighs]
- I don't wanna rot here, do you?
I'm just trying to do
what's better for everyone,
I'm just thinking of Sophie, you know?
So, we'd have a better life?
Don't you think that we deserve
something better than this?
Because I do,
I would like to give her everything,
and I don't think that's too much to ask,
- But you have neither night, nor day,
Last week, she was waiting
for you until midnight,
She couldn't sleep a wink,
On her own birthday, she
made a present for you,
"Mommy's coming home," [scoffs]
- What?
- [Peter] She gave it this title,

[car horn blares]
[cars clunk]
[glass shatters]
[car thumps]
[dramatic orchestral music]
- [Doctor] Mass accident,
One of the cars was trying
to turn around on the road,
but it stalled when the accident happened,
None of the passengers
were wearing seat belts,
and all four suffered
severe head injuries,
and died before the ambulance arrived,
[dramatic orchestral music continues]
The driver of the other
car, a young woman,
is in a coma, but in a stable condition,
We revived her three times,
[dramatic orchestral music continues]
A motorcyclist was also
involved in the accident,
He slipped on the spilled oil,
His wife is waiting in the corridor, so,
please keep her informed and
tell her that we are doing
everything that we can for her husband,
- [Peter] Wake up, Kate,
[suspenseful music]
- [Alpha] It's an interesting situation,
We must let you live, so
that we can live, too,
After all, everything depends on you,
[life support machines bleep]
- Kate,
- Then I have the power to end it all,
- [Alpha] Do you hear it?
That's it,
Me neither,
Nothing has changed,
You are here,
We are here, and this world is here,
and all because you can't change a thing,
You have become an undeniable
part of this world,
and now you are coming with us,
[brooding orchestral music]
[machine bleeps rhythmically]
- Sophie,
My baby,
[machine bleeps erratically]
- Somebody, help!
[g*n clicks]
[g*ns fire rapidly]
[g*ns fire rapidly]
[brooding orchestral music continues]
- [Alpha] Oh,,,
f*ck,
[g*n fires]
[brooding orchestral music continues]
[brooding orchestral music continues]
[birds chirp]
- [Peter] Have you given
a title to your painting?
- [Sophie] "Mommy's coming home,"
- [Peter] [chuckles] That sounds good,

[footsteps approach]
- [Peter] Hi, honey,
- [Kate] Oh, hi,
- Finally, no rides for a week,
No ports, no traffic jumps, no hassle,
- I'm glad you're finally home,
[music plays from phone]
[Peter sighs]
- Sorry, I need to pick this up,
Hello?
- [Jane] In which the patient
could live a sort of life
while their body and mind
continue to struggle to wake up,
However, the most effective way to do this
was always to place the
consciousness in question
in a familiar and usual context,
[footsteps approach]
- [Peter] Sorry, Just a call from work,
- It's okay,
- All right, I solved it, though,
Hey,
Kate,
- What happened up there?
- I don't understand,
- I'm almost completely
used to this place,
Sophie's paintings,
Repeating after a while,
Your exact work schedule,
The fact that I have to
scroll through the calendar
less than usual,
Strange, but it all felt so real,
And yet,,,
What happened up there?
- They warned me that this day might come,
- Who?
- It's all part of an experiment,
It's in its third phase,
so it cannot be perfect yet,
Its leader has volunteered to
supervise everything with you,
after he fully recovered
from the accident,
- Volunteered? Who?
- Dr, Bubba Edwards,
He and his wife have
taken over the project
from the woman who dreamed it all up,
With him on board, it
progressed more in a few weeks
than ever before,
He told me that he met you
at the moment of your death,
I couldn't believe him,
For a while,
- What happened to me?
[somber piano music]
- You woke up from the coma,
But your condition rapidly worsened,
And you had to be put
back on the machines,
Shortly afterwards, I was
contacted by Dr, Dunning
to authorize your participation
in the Aftermath Project,
In return,
I have occasionally been part
of their simulation for,,,
For all these years,
- For years?
- Yes,
- How long since then?
- Kate, I-
- Peter,
How long?
- The simulation has been running for,,,
[Peter sighs]
For five years and three months,
According to the timeframe here,
Up there, days go by
four times as fast, too,
- 21 years?
- Yes,
- And Sophie?
Is she okay? How is she doing?
Is she happy?
[brooding orchestral music]
[Kate chuckles]
- Here's our grandson,
His name is Peter, too,
I couldn't talk her out of it,
[Kate chuckles]
She insisted on the name,
- They're so big,
And they are real,
- Kate,
[Kate chuckles]
- Please tell Bubba that
I appreciate everything he did,
I'll be forever in his debt,
Seems he saved me twice, [chuckles]
And thank you, too,
Peter,
You have to let me go now,
For Sophie,
For Peter,
For yourself,
For the two of us,
You have to let me go,
You have to let me go,
You have to let me go,
[computer crackles and whines]
[computer crackles and whines]
[brooding orchestral music continues]
[machine bleeps]
[moody acoustic guitar music]
A little more than saving words
Found another way to feel all right
It doesn't really matter at all
That we're not gonna say
what it's doing to me
Maybe I'm a little sour
From the mention of a beautiful life
Feeling that I'd forget it all
For the one who dispelled
all the anger in me
Thinking about somebody else
Maybe I'm wrong
Your heroes are dead
We buried them 100 miles ago
I know I see you terribly alone
Running out of time and dusty light
Filling in the seams
with borrowed spite
And though it's cold here
For a moment just to see
Soul expl*si*n far away from me
Old and sour
Like it never slowly breaks
I wanna run away from here
Back rearrange your place
Fly off into space
[moody acoustic guitar music continues]
Maybe in a different world
There's a fire burning
deep in our eyes
A symphony of dark and strange,
feeling feelings of love
Watch you struggle to say
An ordinary touch of wool
Softly settled with
a need to our lives
In absence of a morning's
view, tattered pages of truth
That we lost in a dream
Thinking about somebody else
Maybe I'm wrong
Your heroes are dead
We buried them 100 miles ago
I know I see you terribly alone
Running out of time and dusty light
Filling in the seams
with borrowed sight
And though it's cold here
For a moment just to see
Soul expl*si*n far away from me
Old and sour
Like it never slowly breaks
I wanna run away from here
Back rearrange your place
Fly off into space
[moody acoustic guitar music continues]
A little more than saving words
Found another way to feel all right
It doesn't really matter at all
That we're not gonna say
what it's doing to me
Maybe I'm a little sour

Feeling that I'd forget it all
For the one who dispelled
all the anger in me
Thinking about somebody else
Maybe I'm wrong
Your heroes are dead
We buried them 100 miles ago
I know I see you terribly alone
Running out of time and dusty light
Filling in the seams
with borrowed spite
And though it's cold here
For a moment just to see
Soul expl*si*n far away from me

and we don't get out of here,
Let's hurry,
They'll be here soon,
[footsteps recede]
[birds chirp]
- [Kate] Wait a minute,
- If you don't want to get
caught by those arseholes,
you better hurry up,
There's a hideout not too far from here,
where we can rest for a while,
- [Kate] What is this place?
- I don't know,
- How did you get here?
- I woke up here,
I can't remember anything at all,
I don't know what happened to me,
I only found a necklace and a
photo of a woman in my pocket,
Have you checked your pocket?
[dark music]
- [Kate] This is me, and also my,,,
[Kate groans]
[high-pitched tone rings]
- Don't close your eyes,
It will only get worse,
Don't close your eyes,
It'll go away on its own, in a minute,
[dark music swells]
[eerie music]
- [Kate] How did you know that?
- I had the same thing happen to me,
[dark music continues]
Your family?
- [Kate] I don't know,
- She's a beautiful girl,
[dark music continues]
- "Sophie, Kate and Peter,"
- You remember your name now?
[eerie music]
- [Peter] Kate, honey?
- Yes?
[Kate gasps]
- Kate,
My name is Kate,
- That's half the battle,
- What's your name?
- Bubba,
- And your memory?
I mean, you know who you are?
- Let's go,
The hideout is not far from here,
[Kate sighs]
[faint eerie music]
- [Alpha] She has a companion,
- [Gamma] More fugitives
have been caught, sir,
- [Alpha] Go back and wait for the order,
- [Gamma] Yes, Commander,
Move,
[eerie music continues]
[button clicks]
[hologram chirps]
- Status report,
- We're very close, sir,
- I'm sure I don't need to
tell you how important it is
we find this target,
- [Alpha] I am aware of the
gravity of the situation,
- You'll only really know, Commander,
when the target starts to remember,
And have no doubt, she will remember,
- [Alpha] We will stop her, sir,
- Sooner or later, she
finds what she's looking for
and that could be fatal for
this place, and for all of us,
The clock is ticking, Commander,
[birds chirp]
[Bubba sighs]
- Take this,
I took it from one of the soldiers,
- Thanks,
[Kate gulps]
[Kate gasps]
Thank you,
[Kate gasps]
How did you find this place?
- Like I said,
I woke up not too far from here,
- What is this all about?
I mean,,,
What is this place?
And why us?
- I don't know,
But that's not the only interesting thing,
Do you have a watch?
What's the time?
- [Kate] 11:07,
[Bubba gulps]
- And now?
- But I just-
- And now?
- [Kate] What the hell?
What the hell is happening here?
This is impossible,
- I'd be worried about that, too,
Not just those dickheads,
- Maybe this is all
some kind of experiment,
and we are the subjects,
- Maybe,
We can't rule that out,
- Have you seen anyone else but us?
I mean people who didn't
have itchy trigger fingers,
- No one,
Could she be your wife?
- I don't know,
Maybe,
I,,,
I just feel that she's
very important to me,
Deep inside,
These photos cannot be coincidental,
A memory for you, a memory for me?
There must be a reason,
[Kate winces]
[dark music]
[high-pitched tone rings]
It's almost over,
It's almost over,
[dark music continues]
[engine roars]
It's almost over,
- It was an accident,
I was sitting in my car and
suddenly there was another car,
right in front of me,
- When I woke up,
where I woke up-
- Yeah?
- There was a car,
The front was damaged and
there was a big smoke,
I wanted to take a closer
look, but I got distracted,
- Do you know where the car is?
- Yes, I do,
It's not too far from here,
- Then let's go,
Let's not wait any longer,
Come on!
Let's go, now,
- I have to find her first,
From here, if you go straight ahead,
you have to cross two small clearance,
After the second one,
keep right along the forest
path and you'll find the car,
- What about you?
- I can take care of myself,
Take this,
It's easy to handle,
Aim and sh**t,
But you only have three b*ll*ts left,
So be careful,
- We shouldn't split up,
- I know,
Find the car,
See if you can find the
answers to your questions,
And we'll meet back
here, in two hours time,
Be very careful,
They may be watching you from the air,
If you see them, hide,
We have to focus on
finding a way out of here,
We don't stand a chance against them,

- Hi, Kate,
It's,,,
- [Kate] Dad?
- Martin,
Your phone is switched off, so,
I'm trying to send you this message,
Pete just called a few minutes ago,
Look, [sighs]
I don't know what's going on
between you two right now,
and I wouldn't like to get into it,
I know it's not my business anymore,
but as soon as you get this
message, give him a call,
He is
very worried about you,
I can hear it in his voice,
[Martin sighs]
They are your family, Kate,
They love you very much,
[Martin breathes deeply]
Okay, um,,,
We should also talk again at
some point, like we used to,
[Martin sighs]
Like father and daughter,
Call me anytime,
I'm always here,
[Martin chuckles]
Bye, little girl,

- And the woman?
- We're looking for her,
- That's not good enough,
He k*lled Beta,
Don't wait until her
memories come back, because,
the consequences will
be severe to our world,
Failure is not an option,

Why?
Why me?

[melancholy orchestral music continues]
Can please someone help me?
I don't know where to go,

Oh, my God,
- Don't mind me
Leave!
- I won't leave you here,
- The way out is there, somewhere,
I followed the b*stards here,
Go on,
Now,
You are the key to all this,
One room, one look or another,
holds the answer to everything,
Go on,
Leave,
Now,

- [Peter] Kate,
- Peter?
Peter?
Peter, where are you?
- [Reporter] Throughout
the history of medicine,
we have witnessed some incredible
milestones and miracles,
But now it looks like we
may be on the verge of one
of the most important medical
discoveries of the century,
Thanks to Dr, Jane Dunning,
also known as the mother of neurosurgery,
and her team of researchers,
- [Jane] Thank you very much
on behalf of my colleagues,
Well, let's just say that we may have
already crossed the threshold,
Although, it's taken us nearly 10 years
and the whole story is
still rather experimental,
[Jane chuckles]
After many obstacles and dead ends
this Aftermath Project has encountered,
we are now able to really
get to the bottom of it all,
for the first time,
We had to realize that we only saw
a very small part of the
entire picture, so far,
[Jane chuckles]
Several tests and the
most accurate calculations
are still needed to be able to say
exactly what we have
achieved, but I dare say
that we have managed to
reach new dimensions,
and to transform them,
The Aftermath Project has succeeded
in modeling the brain
activity of comatose patients,
and actually put their
minds in a new environment,
It's worth thinking of it
all as a kind of cryo-state,
in which the patient
can live a sort of life,
while their body and mind
continue to struggle to wake up,
However, the most effective way to do this
was always to place the
consciousness in question
in a familiar and usual context,

[Kate sighs]
- I don't wanna rot here, do you?
I'm just trying to do
what's better for everyone,
I'm just thinking of Sophie, you know?
So, we'd have a better life?
Don't you think that we deserve
something better than this?
Because I do,
I would like to give her everything,
and I don't think that's too much to ask,
- But you have neither night, nor day,
Last week, she was waiting
for you until midnight,
She couldn't sleep a wink,
On her own birthday, she
made a present for you,
"Mommy's coming home," [scoffs]
- What?
- [Peter] She gave it this title,

- [Doctor] Mass accident,
One of the cars was trying
to turn around on the road,
but it stalled when the accident happened,
None of the passengers
were wearing seat belts,
and all four suffered
severe head injuries,
and died before the ambulance arrived,
[dramatic orchestral music continues]
The driver of the other
car, a young woman,
is in a coma, but in a stable condition,
We revived her three times,
[dramatic orchestral music continues]
A motorcyclist was also
involved in the accident,
He slipped on the spilled oil,
His wife is waiting in the corridor, so,
please keep her informed and
tell her that we are doing
everything that we can for her husband,
- [Peter] Wake up, Kate,
[suspenseful music]
- [Alpha] It's an interesting situation,
We must let you live, so
that we can live, too,
After all, everything depends on you,
[life support machines bleep]
- Kate,
- Then I have the power to end it all,
- [Alpha] Do you hear it?
That's it,
Me neither,
Nothing has changed,
You are here,
We are here, and this world is here,
and all because you can't change a thing,
You have become an undeniable
part of this world,
and now you are coming with us,

a title to your painting?

- Finally, no rides for a week,
No ports, no traffic jumps, no hassle,
- I'm glad you're finally home,
[music plays from phone]
[Peter sighs]
- Sorry, I need to pick this up,
Hello?
- [Jane] In which the patient
could live a sort of life
while their body and mind
continue to struggle to wake up,
However, the most effective way to do this
was always to place the
consciousness in question
in a familiar and usual context,
[footsteps approach]
- [Peter] Sorry, Just a call from work,
- It's okay,
- All right, I solved it, though,
Hey,
Kate,
- What happened up there?
- I don't understand,
- I'm almost completely
used to this place,
Sophie's paintings,
Repeating after a while,
Your exact work schedule,
The fact that I have to
scroll through the calendar
less than usual,
Strange, but it all felt so real,
And yet,,,
What happened up there?
- They warned me that this day might come,
- Who?
- It's all part of an experiment,
It's in its third phase,
so it cannot be perfect yet,
Its leader has volunteered to
supervise everything with you,
after he fully recovered
from the accident,
- Volunteered? Who?
- Dr, Bubba Edwards,
He and his wife have
taken over the project
from the woman who dreamed it all up,
With him on board, it
progressed more in a few weeks
than ever before,
He told me that he met you
at the moment of your death,
I couldn't believe him,
For a while,
- What happened to me?
[somber piano music]
- You woke up from the coma,
But your condition rapidly worsened,
And you had to be put
back on the machines,
Shortly afterwards, I was
contacted by Dr, Dunning
to authorize your participation
in the Aftermath Project,
In return,
I have occasionally been part
of their simulation for,,,
For all these years,
- For years?
- Yes,
- How long since then?
- Kate, I-
- Peter,
How long?
- The simulation has been running for,,,
[Peter sighs]
For five years and three months,
According to the timeframe here,
Up there, days go by
four times as fast, too,
- 21 years?
- Yes,
- And Sophie?
Is she okay? How is she doing?
Is she happy?
[brooding orchestral music]
[Kate chuckles]
- Here's our grandson,
His name is Peter, too,
I couldn't talk her out of it,
[Kate chuckles]
She insisted on the name,
- They're so big,
And they are real,
- Kate,
[Kate chuckles]
- Please tell Bubba that
I appreciate everything he did,
I'll be forever in his debt,
Seems he saved me twice, [chuckles]
And thank you, too,
Peter,
You have to let me go now,
For Sophie,
For Peter,
For yourself,
For the two of us,
You have to let me go,
You have to let me go,
You have to let me go,

[moody acoustic guitar music]
A little more than saving words
Found another way to feel all right
It doesn't really matter at all
That we're not gonna say
what it's doing to me
Maybe I'm a little sour
From the mention of a beautiful life
Feeling that I'd forget it all
For the one who dispelled
all the anger in me
Thinking about somebody else
Maybe I'm wrong
Your heroes are dead
We buried them 100 miles ago
I know I see you terribly alone
Running out of time and dusty light
Filling in the seams
with borrowed spite
And though it's cold here
For a moment just to see
Soul expl*si*n far away from me
Old and sour
Like it never slowly breaks
I wanna run away from here
Back rearrange your place
Fly off into space
[moody acoustic guitar music continues]
Maybe in a different world
There's a fire burning
deep in our eyes
A symphony of dark and strange,
feeling feelings of love
Watch you struggle to say
An ordinary touch of wool
Softly settled with
a need to our lives
In absence of a morning's
view, tattered pages of truth
That we lost in a dream
Thinking about somebody else
Maybe I'm wrong
Your heroes are dead
We buried them 100 miles ago
I know I see you terribly alone
Running out of time and dusty light
Filling in the seams
with borrowed sight
And though it's cold here
For a moment just to see
Soul expl*si*n far away from me
Old and sour
Like it never slowly breaks
I wanna run away from here
Back rearrange your place
Fly off into space
