Thought you were inverted.
Changed gears halfway. Looked like you needed help here.
Here? We needed help down there. [to The Protagonist] How’d you get that lock open?
Wasn’t me. [to Neil] Didn’t your team need you?
I’ll get them on the next pass. [to Ives] All right, Ives?
Once I’ve caught my breath.
[The Protagonist reaches for the Algorithm, but Ives swiftly grabs it first, gets up, and points his gun at The Protagonist. They both stand and don’t move for a few seconds.]
No one who’s seen this leaves the field.
[Ives looks at The Protagonist hard, seemingly considers what he said]
All right. [divides the Algorithm into three sections and throws each of two to The Protagonist and Neil] We hide it. We end our lives. It’s the only to be sure. As to when, [lowers his gun] maybe that’s every man’s decision to make for himself.
If I ever find you, I will.
You won’t look too hard?
Yes, I will. [gives The Protagonist one last look and chuckles mirthlessly before walking away]
