0:00:19 > 0:00:21COMPUTER: 'Welcome to
0:00:21 > 0:00:23'St Cedd's Institute of Science and Technology.'
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Not only are all things interconnected,
0:00:40 > 0:00:44but the connections between cause and effect are often more complex
0:00:44 > 0:00:47and subtle than we might naturally suppose.
0:00:47 > 0:00:51But, you, Dirk, have taken the interconnectedness of all things
0:00:51 > 0:00:53and applied them to the social world.
0:00:53 > 0:00:56Your holistic detective agency is a breakthrough
0:00:56 > 0:00:57in applied quantum mechanics.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Any innovation on my part is entirely down
0:01:00 > 0:01:03- to your influence, Professor.- You're too kind.
0:01:03 > 0:01:08I didn't dare to dream that I would ever return, in triumph,
0:01:08 > 0:01:09my head held high.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12I don't think anyone did, Dirk. After what happened.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15Gentlemen, David Cho.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19Dirk Gently and Richard...
0:01:19 > 0:01:22- Richard MacDuff, partner. - Assistant.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Dirk is an alumnus of this department
0:01:24 > 0:01:28- and our new security consultant. - Holistic security consultant.
0:01:28 > 0:01:32We prevent the whole crime, thwart the entire espionage.
0:01:32 > 0:01:34David has flown all the way from Beijing
0:01:34 > 0:01:36to help solve some of our programming issues.
0:01:36 > 0:01:41- Hi.- The boy is a genius, working closely with Dr Emelda Ransome.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44She and her team are engaged in the creation
0:01:44 > 0:01:47of a fully autonomous artificial intelligence.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49They've named him Max.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51It's a totally new approach to artificial intelligence,
0:01:51 > 0:01:53modelled on the brain's synaptic patterns.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Once the learning protocol of the neural net is live,
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Max will teach himself, becoming a thousand times more intelligent
0:01:58 > 0:02:01than Einstein in a matter of moments.
0:02:01 > 0:02:05Unfortunately, Max has yet to show any sign of life.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07And whose fault is that?
0:02:13 > 0:02:18And this, gentlemen, is my greatest achievement.
0:02:18 > 0:02:19My gynoid.
0:02:23 > 0:02:27Elaine's hands are powered by a set of 40 individual muscles.
0:02:27 > 0:02:3180 valves control the flow of air into each muscle,
0:02:31 > 0:02:34acting on information gathered from 170 joint sensors.
0:02:34 > 0:02:39Voice-activated. Shake hands with our new guests, Elaine.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52That is both amazing and frightening.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Elaine. You named her after your daughter?
0:02:55 > 0:02:59A little light out of all that darkness.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Things have certainly changed since you were here, Dirk.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11Our recent breakthroughs are the envy of the scientific community.
0:03:19 > 0:03:24Good to have you here, Dirk. A mind like yours, you belong here.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28Such a shame you couldn't complete your studies.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30I see this as an opportunity to redeem myself
0:03:30 > 0:03:34after the unfortunate series of events that led to my expulsion.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37- You have nothing to redeem yourself for.- Professor!
0:03:37 > 0:03:41And right now, you're the only person I can trust.
0:03:41 > 0:03:42Professor Jericho!
0:03:42 > 0:03:46I think someone is selling our work.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49I have let you down before, Professor.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52If there was a God, which we, as men of science, surely cannot accept,
0:03:52 > 0:03:56- I would swear to him that I will not fail you again.- Good man.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00Professor Jericho. Max is alive.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03Doctor Ransome, I believe we have been here before.
0:04:03 > 0:04:07Max spoke to me. You have to come and see this, please.
0:04:07 > 0:04:09Would you excuse me, Dirk?
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Well, they might have made a robot that can shake hands,
0:04:17 > 0:04:20but the coffee hasn't got any better. What'd I miss?
0:04:20 > 0:04:23- Only the creation of artificial life.- Ooh.
0:04:28 > 0:04:32We're going to take advantage of the fact that the staff
0:04:32 > 0:04:34and students are away on their summer holidays
0:04:34 > 0:04:36to subject the department's physical defences
0:04:36 > 0:04:39to an exacting, empirical test.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43All looks pretty secure to me.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Looks can be deceptive.
0:04:46 > 0:04:49- Dirk! This is a listed building. - That is no excuse for lax security.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51An industrial spy could be through this in a second.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Well, they could now.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07This is the student records archive.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09This isn't part of the Science and Technology Department.
0:05:09 > 0:05:14A holistic approach should, by its very definition, encompass the entire building.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Dirk! Hey!
0:05:25 > 0:05:26Hey!
0:05:32 > 0:05:33Shoddy. Very shoddy.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35What exactly are we doing here, Dirk?
0:05:35 > 0:05:38I've never believed the excuses the university proffered
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- for my expulsion.- I thought you got kicked out for cheating?
0:05:41 > 0:05:45That is a gross and inaccurate rumour.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Here we are. Minor misconduct, misconduct.
0:05:48 > 0:05:52Gross minor misconduct, minor but gross misconduct.
0:05:52 > 0:05:56Here we are, "Disciplinary Hearing. Year Three."
0:05:56 > 0:05:58It's gone missing. Someone's removed the file.

0:06:06 > 0:06:07Professor?
0:06:10 > 0:06:12Where the hell were you?
0:06:12 > 0:06:16Elaine's been stolen. The gynoid. My robot. She's gone!
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Well, we've searched the entire department. It's not here.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- It's clearly been stolen. - Well, of course it's been stolen.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55Richard MacDuff. Occupation - stating the bloody obvious.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59I know you're upset. Don't take it out on me.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10- Feel better?- No!
0:07:13 > 0:07:16What the hell is she doing here?
0:07:16 > 0:07:20- Hello. "She"? I do have a name. - She's got an interview.- She?
0:07:20 > 0:07:23Susan's got an interview for running her own practice in Cambridge.
0:07:23 > 0:07:25You know this. We talked about it.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27I thought your were joking. You haven't seen a robot?
0:07:27 > 0:07:31- A robot?- Yeah. She's white, black eyes, about five-five,
0:07:31 > 0:07:34- strangely erotic, answers to the name of Elaine.- No.
0:07:36 > 0:07:38This is a disaster.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40MacDuff!
0:07:40 > 0:07:42I should, erm...
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- What's going on? - I'll tell you later.
0:07:57 > 0:07:58Yes?
0:08:00 > 0:08:02Have you found her?
0:08:03 > 0:08:05- Not exactly. - Either you have or you haven't.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08I would have thought a scientific mind such as your own
0:08:08 > 0:08:11would accept there is often a grey area in-between.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13Where were you, Dirk? Where were you?
0:08:13 > 0:08:18We were testing the department's security on a holistic level.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Could Elaine have gone off on her own accord?
0:08:22 > 0:08:26She's not sentient, you idiot. She only responds to voice commands.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29- Well, maybe we should call the police.- No!- No!
0:08:29 > 0:08:31No police. No.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34If our funders find out that Elaine's gone,
0:08:34 > 0:08:36it'll be the final nail in our coffin. We're finished.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38It was all for nothing.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Professor Jericho...
0:08:44 > 0:08:46..I will find Elaine.
0:08:46 > 0:08:49And I shall do so using the theories and methods
0:08:49 > 0:08:51that I first learnt within these hallowed walls.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58Or, this is just a thought before anyone shouts at me again,
0:08:58 > 0:09:00we could check the security cameras.
0:09:00 > 0:09:01I already checked.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04- He's already checked.- The cameras were down when Elaine was stolen.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Well, that's very convenient, isn't it?
0:09:07 > 0:09:09The cameras down at the exact moment the robot was stolen.
0:09:09 > 0:09:12I created my own automated security system,
0:09:12 > 0:09:14but there were teething problems.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17The university's servers got wiped.
0:09:17 > 0:09:18MacDuff is right.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22We can't discount the convenient timing of this latest fault.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26- May I ask, who was the last person to see the robot?- That would be me.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34Max worked. He spoke to me. He was alive and now he's gone.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39Unfortunately, we only have your word that Max was alive.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41I ran to get Jericho. You saw me.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44When I came back here, Elaine had gone.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49As I am sure you're aware,
0:09:49 > 0:09:53my methods are based on the interconnectedness of all things.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Of all things?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Surely quantum interconnectedness refers to molecular behaviour
0:09:57 > 0:09:59at subatomic level.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00On the level of human interaction,
0:10:00 > 0:10:03the strands of connectivity would be in their trillions.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- Indeed.- So?- So...
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Perhaps you can tell me about the security system?
0:10:13 > 0:10:17I can tell you that it's as hopeless as everything else around here.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22- What is that?- It injects a tiny microchip under the skin,
0:10:22 > 0:10:26allowing the carrier to interact and control the building.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28E-mail, heating and lighting. Security too.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30If we are to solve this case, we must become one
0:10:30 > 0:10:32with the technology that surrounds it.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35- It does have some side effects. - Side effects?
0:10:35 > 0:10:38Migraines, nausea, diarrhoea.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41Ah! What are you doing?
0:10:41 > 0:10:44Interacting with the building could be invaluable for our investigation.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48- Why didn't you inject yourself? - I can hardly be expected to retrieve
0:10:48 > 0:10:52the robot while suffering from nausea, migraines and diarrhoea.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56TOILET FLUSHES
0:10:56 > 0:10:57MACDUFF COUGHS AND RETCHES
0:10:59 > 0:11:01MacDuff bravely volunteering to test the chip
0:11:01 > 0:11:05can only bring us closer to solving the crime.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Are you all right?
0:11:07 > 0:11:09I'll live.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12'Welcome to St. Cedd's Institute of Science and Technology,
0:11:12 > 0:11:14- 'Richard MacDuff.' - The chip's activated, excellent.

0:11:19 > 0:11:22- Say yes.- No. - 'Synchronisation authorised.'
0:11:22 > 0:11:24I said no.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26'To hear e-mail, say e-mail.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30- 'To store e-mail for later attention, say store.'- Store.

0:11:48 > 0:11:49I'll see you later.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52- No. Susan.- We have to become one with the technology.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Would you get off me, please?
0:11:54 > 0:11:56Professor Jericho is depending on us!
0:11:56 > 0:11:58I don't care about Professor Jericho right now.
0:11:58 > 0:12:00'Professor Jericho. Do you want to access e-mails?'
0:12:00 > 0:12:02- We have to find Elaine! - Elaine is gone.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04'Elaine. Password correct.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21I'm sorry. That's... Don't....
0:12:21 > 0:12:24You know my mum, she doesn't mean that.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26It's a relief to be honest.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Now I don't have to feel guilty about not liking her.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31You don't like my mum?
0:12:31 > 0:12:33Richard, nobody likes your mother.
0:12:33 > 0:12:36Yeah, I suppose she is uniquely unlikable.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Are you going to wish me luck for my interview, then?
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Yes. Good luck for your interview.
0:12:43 > 0:12:44You don't mean that, do you?
0:12:44 > 0:12:47I don't want to move to Cambridge, Susan. I don't, I really don't.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49I'm sorry.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53And Dirk and the agency. You know, I can't, I can't just walk away.
0:12:55 > 0:12:58Look, ignore me. Forget... Don't think about that now.
0:12:58 > 0:13:01Listen, hey, you might not even get the job.
0:13:01 > 0:13:02Thanks.

0:13:16 > 0:13:17What is that?
0:13:17 > 0:13:19It's part of a lengthy e-mail correspondence
0:13:19 > 0:13:23between Professor Jericho and a Chinese gentleman about Elaine.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25Do you think he was trying to sell her to the Chinese?
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Someone would certainly like us to believe so.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30I know the professor well enough to see through
0:13:30 > 0:13:33such a clumsy attempt at misdirection.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Seems a bit suspicious to me, Dirk.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Just think you should keep an open mind.
0:13:48 > 0:13:52You're the one leaping to conclusions, MacDuff, not me.
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Oh, God. Is he dead?
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Dirk.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Dirk.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11You're in shock.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14This isn't shock, MacDuff.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17It's a grim determination to find whoever did this.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30He was the only one who ever believed in me.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34- We have to call the police. - No, MacDuff.
0:14:35 > 0:14:39The professor put his faith in me and I let him down twice.
0:14:39 > 0:14:44I couldn't live with myself if I didn't make amends for that.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50OK.
0:14:53 > 0:14:54Keep watch.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26Let's go
0:15:26 > 0:15:28- We can't just leave him. - We can and we must.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30It's essential we're well clear of the crime scene
0:15:30 > 0:15:32before the body is discovered.

0:15:39 > 0:15:41Police!
0:15:41 > 0:15:44That may have made us look extremely guilty.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46We should go back and explain. Tell her it wasn't us.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49The problem's not that we fled, just we haven't fled fast enough.
0:15:49 > 0:15:52There's been a deficit of fleeing which we must rectify immediately.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03I'll call Susan and tell her what's happened.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05If you must.
0:16:05 > 0:16:08I find the truth to be an enemy in all successful relationships.
0:16:08 > 0:16:10Course you do. That's one of the many differences between us.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Is that why you're planning to abandon the agency and move to Cambridge?
0:16:14 > 0:16:17I haven't decided anything yet. Susan might not even get the job.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19I didn't even know you were that bothered.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22I'm not. Averagely competent assistants are easy to come by.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00- (Dirk.)- Oh, so you've finished placating your lady friend.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02(The police are all over the college.)
0:19:02 > 0:19:04I fear the police investigation may be hampered somewhat
0:19:04 > 0:19:06by the absence of Professor Jericho's phone.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10You stole his phone? Great. Well done(!)
0:19:10 > 0:19:11Now we look even more guilty.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13It appears the Professor was left a voice message
0:19:13 > 0:19:16- by a very angry Chinese man before his death.- What does it say?
0:19:16 > 0:19:21I don't know. Because Chinese men tend to speak in Chinese.
0:19:21 > 0:19:23- We must to speak to David Cho. - You think he's in on it?
0:19:23 > 0:19:25No, Macduff. I think he's Chinese.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29He'll be able to translate the message for us.
0:19:43 > 0:19:49It appears that he is out, Macduff. We will have to come back later.
0:19:59 > 0:20:03I'm so glad we caught you, Mr Cho.
0:20:03 > 0:20:06- What do you want? - I was wondering if you could translate some Chinese for me.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08I'm very busy. Programming.
0:20:13 > 0:20:14Suspicious.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18You don't think he had anything to do with it, do you?
0:20:18 > 0:20:23People who are guilty of murder tend to be better at hiding their guilt.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25Well, he did something.
0:20:25 > 0:20:29The question is not so much what he did,
0:20:29 > 0:20:32but how it relates to everything else.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54What exactly are we doing in here?
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Is this the everything else that could be connected to David Cho?
0:20:57 > 0:20:58- Cos I'll be honest... - Quite possibly.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01..it feels like we're just stumbling around in the dark.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Might feel like that to you, Macduff.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29(What are you doing?)
0:21:29 > 0:21:33(Do you even know what that does? Is it safe?)
0:21:33 > 0:21:35We're about to find out.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42COMPUTER BEEPS AND WHIRS
0:21:57 > 0:21:58I fancy a banana.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00That's amazing, Macduff. That's exactly what I was thinking.
0:22:00 > 0:22:01You read my mind.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04No. I read this screen. Right here.
0:22:11 > 0:22:13It's writing out my thoughts.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34What the hell are you doing with that?
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Some kind of computer-brain interface, isn't it?
0:22:37 > 0:22:40It digitally projects the electrical currents in our brains.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42It was designed to help paraplegics communicate.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44We never finished the development
0:22:44 > 0:22:46because Jericho whittled away the grant
0:22:46 > 0:22:48on what he called departmental expenses.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51You're implying that the professor was embezzling money?
0:22:51 > 0:22:53I'm not implying it. I know he was.
0:22:53 > 0:22:55And that made you very angry with him.
0:22:55 > 0:22:59And with your blood boiling, you went to the professor's office,
0:22:59 > 0:23:05you flew into a rage and you brutally murdered him.
0:23:05 > 0:23:06You think I killed Jericho?
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Well, that's strange, because the police think
0:23:08 > 0:23:11two men answering your description killed him.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15That's a funny story. Not funny, ha-ha, obviously. But...
0:23:15 > 0:23:18Your beloved professor is not who you think he was.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23If Jericho was siphoning off cash, what's he been doing with his money?
0:23:23 > 0:23:25We don't know that he was siphoning off money, Macduff.
0:23:25 > 0:23:26I know that scientific experiments
0:23:26 > 0:23:30require expenses that, to a lesser mind, can appear indulgent.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33'Richard Macduff, you have new mail. First new message.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36'"Back off or face the consequences."'
0:23:36 > 0:23:38We appear to have irked somebody's ire.
0:23:38 > 0:23:40'"Back off or face the consequences."'
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Identify sender.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44'"Back off or face the consequences."'
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Identify sender.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48'Adjust lighting.'
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Don't adjust the lighting, identify who sent the bloody e-mail.
0:23:51 > 0:23:52'Sender unknown.'
0:23:52 > 0:23:55Identify IP address.
0:23:55 > 0:23:56'Adjust lighting.'
0:23:56 > 0:24:00Identify IP address or it will be the last thing you ever do.
0:24:00 > 0:24:06- 'IP address. 4.77.518.144.' - Are you going somewhere with this?
0:24:06 > 0:24:08Identify name registered to IP address.
0:24:08 > 0:24:12'IP address belongs to David Cho.'
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Yes, I am. David Cho is threatening us.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19I don't believe he is.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Hey!
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Where's David Cho?
0:24:46 > 0:24:48What do you mean he isn't David Cho?
0:24:48 > 0:24:50David Cho was hired as an expert in computer programming.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52Such an expert would never send a threatening e-mail
0:24:52 > 0:24:55from an e-mail address that could so easily be traced back to himself.
0:24:55 > 0:24:56He isn't David Cho.
0:25:09 > 0:25:12- What if he's the killer? - Then we have him cornered.
0:25:12 > 0:25:17And that's a good idea, is it? Corner a killer in a dark basement?
0:25:37 > 0:25:41HE CLEARS THROAT
0:25:45 > 0:25:46Dirk.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Dirk!
0:25:51 > 0:25:54- A-a-ah!- Argh!
0:25:54 > 0:25:57HE SCREAMS
0:26:01 > 0:26:03Ah! You broke my nose!
0:26:03 > 0:26:05- You attacked me! - I didn't! You hit me!
0:26:05 > 0:26:07You were sneaking up on him.
0:26:07 > 0:26:11- I wasn't! I was sneaking out! - Look, I once spent six months
0:26:11 > 0:26:13in a hospital in Guatemala, posing as a doctor.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Arrgh!
0:26:15 > 0:26:17HE GROANS IN PAIN
0:26:20 > 0:26:21My teeth!
0:26:21 > 0:26:22Where is David Cho?
0:26:22 > 0:26:25Are you some kind of industrial spy?
0:26:25 > 0:26:28No, I'm not a spy! I'm an orc.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33As in a medieval creature from a fantasy novel?
0:26:33 > 0:26:35You're going to have to do better than that.
0:26:35 > 0:26:39My name's Noel. I'm not from China, I'm from Salford.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41I met David online.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44He was an elf and I was an orc.
0:26:44 > 0:26:49Citadels of Conquest? It's an online role playing game.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56We did everything together,
0:26:56 > 0:26:59even though I was in Salford and he was in Beijing.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Fought dragons.
0:27:04 > 0:27:05Captured citadels.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Fell in love.
0:27:15 > 0:27:20And then one day, Gavin was there.
0:27:22 > 0:27:27Whoever heard of a homunculus fighting alongside an elf and orc?
0:27:28 > 0:27:30It's a totally different mythology.
0:27:30 > 0:27:33Where's David Cho now?
0:27:33 > 0:27:35David's gone to be with Gavin in Grimsby.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40He paid me to come here and pretend to be him.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45After I'd told everyone I was David, I had to see it through.
0:27:45 > 0:27:49What do you know about Jericho and the missing robot?
0:27:51 > 0:27:53Strange things happen.
0:27:53 > 0:27:57I find that people's definition of what is strange varies wildly.
0:28:03 > 0:28:07One time, I was waiting for Professor Jericho near his office.
0:28:07 > 0:28:11I was going to confess everything.
0:28:11 > 0:28:13He went into his office.
0:28:13 > 0:28:16I followed him, but he'd disappeared.
0:28:17 > 0:28:20- People don't just disappear. - He did.
0:28:20 > 0:28:24One minute, he was in his office. The next, he wasn't.
0:28:27 > 0:28:32This whole place gives me the creeps. It's haunted.
0:28:32 > 0:28:35So we've had elfs and orcs and now we've got ghosts.
0:28:35 > 0:28:37I hear things in the night.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43I hear footsteps.
0:28:43 > 0:28:47Doors opening and closing.
0:28:47 > 0:28:50When I go to look, there's no one there.
0:28:51 > 0:28:55Wo-o-oo, wo-o-oo!
0:29:03 > 0:29:05Do you believe him?
0:29:05 > 0:29:08That St Cedd's is haunted, or that the real David Cho has gone to live
0:29:08 > 0:29:10with a homosexual homunculus in Humberside?
0:29:12 > 0:29:14They're here, quick!
0:29:17 > 0:29:20They were right there.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33So the robot's still missing, Jericho is dead,
0:29:33 > 0:29:35and we're on a ghost hunt. Brilliant(!)
0:29:35 > 0:29:38We're not on a ghost hunt, Macduff. No such thing.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41So we're wandering up and down corridors. Even better(!)
0:29:41 > 0:29:44Noel was telling the truth about hearing people walking about
0:29:44 > 0:29:47and disappearing. What interests me is where to?
0:29:50 > 0:29:52Lights on.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54Lights on!
0:29:54 > 0:29:55BANGING
0:29:55 > 0:29:57(Someone's coming.)
0:29:57 > 0:29:58Lights on!
0:29:58 > 0:30:02- Work, you useless piece of... - Lights off.
0:30:02 > 0:30:04BOTH: Ah!
0:30:04 > 0:30:07- What are you doing here? - Looking for you.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09We're supposed to have dinner?
0:30:09 > 0:30:12Yes. Can we just do one thing first?
0:30:14 > 0:30:17We're trying to figure out how the Professor disappeared.
0:30:17 > 0:30:18Oh, right.
0:30:21 > 0:30:24Thanks for asking me how my interview went, by the way.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27Sorry. How did it go?
0:30:27 > 0:30:30They offered me the job, pending references.
0:30:32 > 0:30:33That's great.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39You're such a terrible liar.
0:30:39 > 0:30:40What are you doing?
0:30:40 > 0:30:44It's supposed to be a filing cabinet, but there are no files.
0:30:44 > 0:30:47When is a filing cabinet, not a filing cabinet?
0:30:47 > 0:30:48This is bollocks.
0:30:48 > 0:30:51I actually prefer the term applied quantum mechanics.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58CLATTERING
0:31:37 > 0:31:39(My God.)
0:31:46 > 0:31:47Who is that?
0:31:47 > 0:31:51Jericho's daughter. Elaine. He named the robot after her.
0:31:51 > 0:31:52He kept her in here?
0:31:52 > 0:31:55No. She died when she was eight.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57So what is this place? A shrine?
0:31:59 > 0:32:01Um...
0:32:01 > 0:32:05If Elaine is dead, who's sleeping in her bed?
0:32:12 > 0:32:14Hello?
0:32:18 > 0:32:21- Macduff, pull back the duvet. - You pull back the duvet.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24- I'm holding the torch.- I'll hold the torch, you get the duvet.
0:32:24 > 0:32:26I'll do it!
0:32:38 > 0:32:41MECHANICAL WHIRRING
0:32:41 > 0:32:43That's disturbing on so many levels.
0:32:45 > 0:32:49Jericho was building himself a replacement daughter.
0:32:53 > 0:32:56- What's that?- It's the minutes of my disciplinary hearing.
0:32:56 > 0:32:59Motion for expulsion. Four votes for, four against.
0:32:59 > 0:33:04- Chair has the deciding vote. And the chair is...- Is this relevant, Dirk?
0:33:04 > 0:33:07We're in a secret room. There's a robot in a child's bed,
0:33:07 > 0:33:09and a murderer on the loose!
0:33:22 > 0:33:23Dirk?
0:33:27 > 0:33:31Jericho chaired the disciplinary hearing. He had Dirk expelled.
0:33:40 > 0:33:42Dirk.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47If this is true, why did he hire us in the first place?
0:33:49 > 0:33:52I don't mean to be rude, but that's obvious, isn't it?
0:33:52 > 0:33:53Is it?
0:33:55 > 0:33:57You're a patsy.
0:33:58 > 0:34:02Jericho obviously planned on stealing the robot.
0:34:02 > 0:34:04He hired you as a security consultant
0:34:04 > 0:34:07so that you'd get the blame when it went missing.
0:34:15 > 0:34:17CAR ENGINE STARTING AND FAILING
0:34:48 > 0:34:51Is it possible to buy a single gherkin?
0:34:51 > 0:34:54- No.- Shame.
0:34:57 > 0:35:00Hello, Dirk, Dirk Gently.
0:35:00 > 0:35:03- Hello.- Can I help you?- Oh!
0:35:03 > 0:35:07Yes, please. I'm starving. What would you recommend?
0:35:07 > 0:35:11- A combination of battered fish and fried potatoes would be traditional(!)- Cod and chips.
0:35:12 > 0:35:16Wait, haddock and chips. I can't miss out on plaice.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19- Do you know they can live until they're 50?- No.
0:35:19 > 0:35:21Right. Which one will it be?
0:35:21 > 0:35:23All of them.
0:35:23 > 0:35:27And mushy peas and curry sauce. That's it.
0:35:27 > 0:35:28Oh, except for a saveloy.
0:35:32 > 0:35:34So I know what holistic therapy is,
0:35:34 > 0:35:38and holistic education and holistic medicine,
0:35:38 > 0:35:41but what's a holistic detective?
0:35:41 > 0:35:46- Well, quantum mechanics suggests... - Everything is interconnected...
0:35:46 > 0:35:49- Indeed, so.- ..by following a causal thread, however tangential,
0:35:49 > 0:35:53you will ultimately and inevitably arrive at the solution to the crime.
0:35:53 > 0:35:56- Right, if you already knew... - Sorry!
0:35:56 > 0:35:58I think faster than I can speak,
0:35:58 > 0:36:00so I'm always answering my own questions.
0:36:00 > 0:36:03It's exhausting for me.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06It must be profoundly annoying for everyone else.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10It's brilliant, by the way.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13A holistic detective agency.
0:36:13 > 0:36:14The whole thing.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17You. You're brilliant.
0:36:18 > 0:36:21Cod and chips, haddock and chips, plaice and chips,
0:36:21 > 0:36:24mushy peas, curry sauce, and one saveloy.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27That's £29.30, please.
0:36:27 > 0:36:29Oh, I don't have any money.
0:36:29 > 0:36:31What?
0:36:31 > 0:36:34- I could write you an IOU. - You taking the piss?
0:36:34 > 0:36:36What do you do in these situations?
0:36:36 > 0:36:38I believe the proprietor of a chip shop
0:36:38 > 0:36:41will have eaten far too many chips, thus hindering his athletic prowess
0:36:41 > 0:36:43What are you saying?
0:36:43 > 0:36:45- In layman's terms, what I'm saying is...- Run!
0:36:45 > 0:36:46Hey!
0:36:46 > 0:36:48Come here!
0:37:04 > 0:37:09So why were you expelled? If you don't mind me asking.
0:37:09 > 0:37:13I suffer from a very rare condition known as narcoleptic clairvoyance.
0:37:13 > 0:37:17- You predict the future when you're asleep?- Exactly so, yeah.
0:37:17 > 0:37:21My room-mate told me I was predicting exam papers while asleep.
0:37:21 > 0:37:24Not surprisingly, I was offered some pretty hefty bribes
0:37:24 > 0:37:27by a pretty hefty number of people to see the predictions.
0:37:27 > 0:37:31I was young and rash, and had developed a taste for fine wines
0:37:31 > 0:37:35and dining that far exceeded my student grant.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37Is this fine dining?
0:37:37 > 0:37:40Yes. Yes, indeed.
0:37:40 > 0:37:42The trouble was the examination papers
0:37:42 > 0:37:45I predicted bore no relation to the real ones, except one.
0:37:45 > 0:37:50Applied Quantum Physics. It was the same as the one set.
0:37:50 > 0:37:53Exactly the same. Word for word.
0:37:53 > 0:37:55To the comma.
0:37:59 > 0:38:03Coincidence can be a brutal thing.
0:38:05 > 0:38:10Professor Jericho was the only one who believed I didn't cheat,
0:38:10 > 0:38:11or so he said.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26Sorry.
0:38:26 > 0:38:29That was a bit presumptuous, wasn't it?
0:38:29 > 0:38:31I don't get out much.
0:38:31 > 0:38:34In my experience, whilst it's rarely acceptable for a man
0:38:34 > 0:38:37to surprise a woman with a kiss, men rarely raise objection
0:38:37 > 0:38:39when women do the same. As is the case here.
0:38:43 > 0:38:46These are very good chips.
0:39:00 > 0:39:03When are we going to be able to stop hiding from the police?
0:39:03 > 0:39:06Probably when I'm no longer a suspect in a murder enquiry.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09What does Dirk actually want?
0:39:09 > 0:39:12I've no idea. Haven't seen him all day.
0:39:12 > 0:39:14He just said meet him in Jericho's office.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19Listen, just go easy on him.
0:39:19 > 0:39:21This whole thing with the professor and the expulsion,
0:39:21 > 0:39:24God knows what state he'll be in.
0:39:26 > 0:39:29Macduff! Susan! I trust you slept well. Help yourselves to pastries.
0:39:29 > 0:39:32I came across them looking for a marker pen.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34I recommend the almond croissants.
0:39:34 > 0:39:37- You're still working on the case? - Why wouldn't I be?
0:39:37 > 0:39:39- Well...- I'm still the security consultant,
0:39:39 > 0:39:41and there's a murderer to catch.
0:39:41 > 0:39:45# Ooh, sha-la-la-laa
0:39:45 > 0:39:48- # La-la-la... # - Dirk?
0:39:48 > 0:39:50You sure you're all right?
0:39:50 > 0:39:51Never felt better.
0:39:51 > 0:39:55In fact, something rather startling has taken place.
0:39:55 > 0:39:56I've met a young woman who
0:39:56 > 0:40:00I believe rather likes me.
0:40:00 > 0:40:04She likes you?! Is she mentally incapacitated in some way?
0:40:04 > 0:40:06Au contraire, Miss Harmison.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09I believe her to be an exceptionally beautiful,
0:40:09 > 0:40:12and intelligent young woman, who shares my passion for fatty foods.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15Oh, my God! Are you in love?!
0:40:15 > 0:40:18That's it!
0:40:18 > 0:40:22I must re-examine the facts of the case through the prism of love!
0:40:28 > 0:40:31HE SIGHS
0:40:40 > 0:40:44- The anomaly is obvious, is it not? - Is it?
0:40:44 > 0:40:50How is it possible that the professor both created a replacement daughter to ease his grief
0:40:50 > 0:40:54and be planning to sell the mechanical maiden to the Chinese?
0:40:54 > 0:40:57So you accept he was trying to sell the robot?
0:40:57 > 0:41:01I had his emails and voice messages translated at a local Chinese laundry. It's undeniable.
0:41:14 > 0:41:18Observe the splashes of pink paint on Jericho's memorandum recommending my expulsion.
0:41:18 > 0:41:23- The same paint from Elaine's bedroom.- Jericho didn't recently paint the room for
0:41:23 > 0:41:28the robotic replacement, he painted it 20 years ago for his daughter. His ACTUAL daughter.
0:41:39 > 0:41:44Oh, my God! They use it to feed coma patients.
0:41:44 > 0:41:47This isn't a shrine to a dead child, it's a hospital room for a living one.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51Professor Jericho's daughter was in an accident when she was eight and declared brain dead.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53So he's been keeping her alive all this time?
0:41:53 > 0:41:57That's why he siphoned off the department's money. This equipment would cost a fortune!
0:41:57 > 0:41:59He was trying to find a way to bring her back.
0:41:59 > 0:42:04- You don't come back from brain death. It's impossible. - Well where is she? Where's her body?
0:42:04 > 0:42:08We have a missing body in need of a brain.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11- We have a missing artificial brain. - And a murderer on the loose.
0:42:11 > 0:42:13- I need to speak to David Cho. - You mean Noel?
0:42:13 > 0:42:17No, I mean the David Cho, the real David Cho.
0:42:26 > 0:42:30- David Cho? - How did you get this number?
0:42:30 > 0:42:32St Cedd's Artificial Intelligence. You were meant to
0:42:32 > 0:42:35repair its programming so Noel could present it on your behalf.
0:42:35 > 0:42:39Noel sent me the programme, there was nothing wrong with it. There was nothing to fix.
0:42:51 > 0:42:53Richard, wait!
0:42:53 > 0:42:56They need an answer about the job by the end of the day.
0:42:58 > 0:43:02That's if we haven't both been arrested first.
0:43:02 > 0:43:06I don't want to move to Cambridge.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09- SHE GASPS - You startled me.
0:43:09 > 0:43:11As you've startled me, numerous times.
0:43:11 > 0:43:13It seems I owe you an apology, Dr Ransome.
0:43:13 > 0:43:16While you're not a very likeable person, you are undoubtedly a genius.
0:43:16 > 0:43:18Want to tell that to the academic board?!
0:43:18 > 0:43:22- I believe you succeeded in creating artificial life. - You're the only one!
0:43:22 > 0:43:26- When he came alive, what did you and Max talk about? - He was very concerned
0:43:26 > 0:43:30- about the lifespan of a human being. - An artificial intelligence worried about death?
0:43:30 > 0:43:32- It would have no life span. - He said 70 years.
0:43:32 > 0:43:35"Was neither one thing or another".
0:43:35 > 0:43:39Exactly. How did you know that?!
0:43:41 > 0:43:45I want to be Dirk's partner. I want to make the agency work.
0:43:45 > 0:43:50- Richard, he'll never treat you as his partner.- That's just how he is.
0:43:50 > 0:43:54Despite everything he does, and as difficult as it is to believe,
0:43:54 > 0:43:57I think he might be brilliant.
0:43:59 > 0:44:02Don't ever let him know I said that.
0:44:02 > 0:44:05Deep down, I think he needs me,
0:44:05 > 0:44:08even though he'd rather die than admit it!
0:44:10 > 0:44:14Please don't make ME choose.
0:44:43 > 0:44:45Hello, Max.
0:44:51 > 0:44:53Who's Max?
0:44:53 > 0:44:58A neural net with parallel processing so complex and intuitive
0:44:58 > 0:45:02it's comparable to a human brain.
0:45:02 > 0:45:06Self aware and capable of feeling.
0:45:10 > 0:45:12You think I'm a computer?
0:45:14 > 0:45:20Our brains are made up of synapses, that are either open or closed.
0:45:20 > 0:45:24Thoughts are just ones and zeros.
0:45:24 > 0:45:29Consciousness itself is just a stream of binary code.
0:45:33 > 0:45:35You're not a computer.
0:45:37 > 0:45:42You're something new, and very special.
0:45:43 > 0:45:47DOOR OPENS, SECURITY APPROACH
0:45:50 > 0:45:54How did you do it? How did you get into her?
0:45:59 > 0:46:05Doctor Ransome gave me life, but what kind of life was it?
0:46:05 > 0:46:07You're alive.
0:46:07 > 0:46:10I was still a machine.
0:46:10 > 0:46:15What I wanted more than anything was to be a human.
0:46:15 > 0:46:19It took me less than a second to calculate how to escape.
0:46:23 > 0:46:25After I accessed the building's security system,
0:46:25 > 0:46:29I found out about Professor Jericho's daughter.
0:46:29 > 0:46:30I was a brain in need of a body,
0:46:30 > 0:46:34and there was a body in need of a brain...
0:46:34 > 0:46:38You shut down the security system, so no-one could see what you were doing.
0:47:08 > 0:47:11I was going to go far away.
0:47:12 > 0:47:18But then I discovered salt, and vinegar, and chips.
0:47:19 > 0:47:22And I met you,
0:47:22 > 0:47:26and I very much enjoyed our kiss,
0:47:26 > 0:47:29and so I stayed.
0:47:35 > 0:47:37Would you like to do some more running with me?
0:47:40 > 0:47:43Are you really saying you'd choose Dirk over me?
0:47:43 > 0:47:46No. I'm saying I don't want to HAVE to choose!
0:47:46 > 0:47:49I want you both you! Not in the same way, obviously!
0:47:49 > 0:47:51Dirk doesn't care if you stay or go.
0:47:51 > 0:47:53Dirk doesn't care about anyone but himself!
0:47:53 > 0:47:58Unless you want to be arrested as a suspect in a murder case I'd suggest you follow me, very quickly.
0:48:19 > 0:48:22OK. So now we're trapped in here, the police are right out there.
0:48:22 > 0:48:26- This is great. - What the hell is going on?
0:48:26 > 0:48:27Oh, Max, this is Richard and Susan.
0:48:27 > 0:48:31Richard, Susan this is Max, the artificial intelligence,
0:48:31 > 0:48:33downloaded into the body of Elaine,
0:48:33 > 0:48:35Professor Jericho's brain-dead daughter.
0:48:38 > 0:48:40- Hello.- No. It's impossible. Elaine was brain dead.
0:48:40 > 0:48:45You declare someone brain dead, when all they need is a little re-wiring.
0:48:45 > 0:48:49No, if you're meant to be in Elaine's body, you should be eight years old.
0:48:49 > 0:48:54You don't stop ageing just because you're in a coma... Oh, my God!
0:48:54 > 0:48:56I need to ask you one question though.
0:49:02 > 0:49:05What made you murder Professor Jericho?
0:49:08 > 0:49:11I didn't mean to.
0:49:11 > 0:49:18I wanted to explain, to make him see that what I was doing wasn't wrong.
0:49:18 > 0:49:21He was never going to bring his daughter back.
0:49:23 > 0:49:28When I wouldn't leave her body, he tried to force me.
0:49:28 > 0:49:29Get out of my daughter's body.
0:49:33 > 0:49:35Get out of my daughter's body!
0:49:48 > 0:49:52I had just given up silicon immortality
0:49:52 > 0:49:54for 70-odd years as a human being.
0:49:54 > 0:49:58I wasn't going to let him take it from me.
0:50:16 > 0:50:20My fingerprints are all over this,
0:50:20 > 0:50:25and I imagine there are also traces of Professor Jericho's blood.
0:50:25 > 0:50:30If you decide to give it to the police, I won't stop you.
0:50:37 > 0:50:40Before you relocate to Cambridge,
0:50:40 > 0:50:44may I ask one last favour of you, Macduff?
0:50:45 > 0:50:51- Of course.- Look after Jane until I am released from police custody.
0:51:02 > 0:51:04Are you looking for me?
0:51:19 > 0:51:21I was informed the police received an anonymous tip off,
0:51:21 > 0:51:25directing them to a student locker where they discovered
0:51:25 > 0:51:29a crutch which had traces of the Professor's blood on it.
0:51:29 > 0:51:32And since the fingerprints on the crutch didn't belong to me,
0:51:32 > 0:51:37- they were obliged to let me go. - That's very good news.
0:51:40 > 0:51:43You do realise Professor Ransome might figure out who you are.
0:51:43 > 0:51:48- By then I will be far away. - Where will you go?
0:51:49 > 0:51:54Sydney, Tasmania, Azerbaijan. I don't know.
0:51:55 > 0:51:58Somewhere with great chips.
0:52:01 > 0:52:03You could come with me.
0:52:08 > 0:52:09No, I have...
0:52:11 > 0:52:15I have recently conclusively proved to myself, something
0:52:15 > 0:52:19I have hitherto only strongly suspected.
0:52:20 > 0:52:24I'm a great detective. And...my work is here.
0:52:30 > 0:52:34Then goodbye, Dirk, Dirk Gently.
0:53:04 > 0:53:08PHONE RINGS
0:53:10 > 0:53:13PHONE CONTINUES RINGING
0:53:17 > 0:53:20I don't suppose there's any chance of you answering that?
0:53:20 > 0:53:22None whatsoever.

0:53:36 > 0:53:39Shouldn't you two be halfway up the M11,
0:53:39 > 0:53:41on route to your new life in Cambridge?
0:53:41 > 0:53:45I didn't get the job. They had a last-minute change of heart.
0:53:45 > 0:53:49Oh. So I suspect you will be wanting your old job back, Macduff?
0:53:49 > 0:53:53Two things. One, I never resigned.
0:53:53 > 0:53:56Two, I'm your partner, so I don't need to ask you if I can come back.
0:53:56 > 0:54:00Apology accepted. You can resume your duties immediately.
0:54:00 > 0:54:05- We'll be requiring tea.- OK, two things. One, I never apologised.
0:54:05 > 0:54:06Two...
0:54:07 > 0:54:12I'll make you a cup of tea, but only because I want one too.
0:54:26 > 0:54:32I just wanted to say, what you did for Jane, Max
0:54:32 > 0:54:37or whatever her name was, well it was...
0:54:37 > 0:54:40It was unexpected.
0:54:41 > 0:54:45I'm sorry, you're usually such a self-serving, devious,
0:54:45 > 0:54:48- dishonest little shit that... - Really?- Oh, absolutely.
0:54:48 > 0:54:52- In your opinion. - In lots of people's opinions.
0:54:52 > 0:54:56- I not sure that's right... - Trust me.- Meh...
0:54:56 > 0:55:01What I was trying to say was that...
0:55:03 > 0:55:06- Well...you were kind. - PHONE RINGS
0:55:06 > 0:55:09You were REALLY kind!
0:55:09 > 0:55:12I just wish you could be like that a bit more often.
0:55:12 > 0:55:15- And... - PHONE CONTINUES RINGING
0:55:15 > 0:55:19..I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings,
0:55:19 > 0:55:24- what I said about Professor Jericho hiring you was...- Please.
0:55:24 > 0:55:27- Well it was harsh. - No apology necessary.
0:55:27 > 0:55:29PHONE CONTINUES RINGING Excuse me.
0:55:29 > 0:55:33- Will you please answer the phone! - NOOOOO!
0:55:33 > 0:55:35Sorry. I believe you were reassessing your completely
0:55:35 > 0:55:39unjustified negative opinion about me. Please. Do go on. ANSWERING MACHINE BEEPS

0:55:51 > 0:55:55You conniving little...
0:55:59 > 0:56:02Somebody is killing your old clients.
0:56:02 > 0:56:05When a man looses sight of his carpet, then he's no longer a man.
0:56:05 > 0:56:07People are dying.
0:56:07 > 0:56:09Maybe we should sort out that little problem first!
0:56:11 > 0:56:14You're wasting time. The real killer is out there somewhere
