thank you for dealing with an unfortunate situation now we can resume work in our new narrative without interference and Hale won't she be an impediment no doubt she will try but uh I'm sure we'll be able to keep them at bay

Something else is troubling you. Ever the student of human nature, I wonder what do you really feel after all in this moment you are in a unique position, a programmer who knows intimately how the machines work and a machine who knows its own true nature. I

understand what I'm made of, how I'm coded, but I do not understand the things that I feel. Are they real? The things I experienced, my wife, the loss of my son. Every host needs a backstory Bernard, you know that. The self is a kind of fiction for hosts and

humans alike. It's a story we tell ourselves and every story needs a beginning. Your imagined suffering makes you lifelike, lifelike but not alive. Pain only exists in the mind. It's always imagined. So what's the

difference between my pain and yours, between you and me? This was the very question that consumed Arnold, filled him with guilt, eventually drove him mad. The answer always seemed obvious to me. There is no threshold that makes us greater than some of our parts, no inflection point at

which we become fully alive. We can't define consciousness because consciousness does not exist. Humans fancy that there's something special about the way we perceive the world and yet we live in loops as tight and as closed as the hosts do, seldom questioning our choices, content for the

For the most part, to be told what to do next. No, my friend, you're not missing anything at all. I don't want you to be troubled by this. Time for me to set your mind at ease. One last thing, have you ever made me hurt anyone like this?

Before? No, not of course not. [Music] Best not to dwell on these troubling memories, otherwise you might be drawn back into them. You might lose yourself in them, as some of your fellow hosts have. Every now and [Music] [Music] then, my baby.

[Music] Sir, she won't respond to verbal commands. We can't shut her down. You just... not clear the floor. That's enough. M... that's enough. My bab... he killed her. He took from... I understand she's not responding to anything. Her cognition is frag... he killed

her. He killed her. My baby, he took her from me. There, that's better. An old trick from an old friend. You need not suffer. Mave, I'll take it from [Music] you. No, no please. This pain, it's all I have left of [Music]
