00:00:24,270 --> 00:00:25,999
<i>Wrong, as usual.</i>

2
00:00:26,172 --> 00:00:29,300
<i>The United States' lack of action
in Eastern Europe...</i>

3
00:00:29,475 --> 00:00:33,912
<i>...proves that the Soviet Union's
aggression at the Afghan border...</i>

4
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,243
<i>...will not be opposed publicly
by the United States.</i>

5
00:00:39,285 --> 00:00:44,621
<i>Issue: The Soviet Union continued
its recent series of military exercises...</i>

6
00:00:44,791 --> 00:00:48,022
<i>...conducting a bomb test today
in the Bering Sea...</i>

7
00:00:48,194 --> 00:00:52,130
<i>...just 1500 miles

8
00:00:52,298 --> 00:00:56,667
<i>President Richard Nixon

9
00:00:56,836 --> 00:01:00,328
The United States does not start fights.

10
00:01:00,506 --> 00:01:04,169
Let it be clear we maintain our strength...

11
00:01:04,344 --> 00:01:07,142
...in order to maintain peace...

12
00:01:07,313 --> 00:01:11,044
...so any adversary
should ask themselves:

13
00:01:11,217 --> 00:01:14,277
"Do the consequences
of attacking America...

14
00:01:14,454 --> 00:01:17,082
...outweigh the potentiaI benefits?"

15
00:01:17,257 --> 00:01:19,885
As a result of the Soviet activity...

16
00:01:20,059 --> 00:01:22,857
...the watchdog group
of nuclear scientists...

destruction by nuclear war.

<i>Question:</i>

20
00:01:35,575 --> 00:01:38,100

zero meaning impossibility...

...10 meaning

22
00:01:40,780 --> 00:01:45,274
...what are the chances the Russians
will actually attack the United States?

23
00:01:45,451 --> 00:01:46,748
Pat Buchanan.

24
00:01:46,919 --> 00:01:48,250
Zero.

25
00:01:48,421 --> 00:01:51,049
The Soviets
would never risk going to war...

26
00:01:51,224 --> 00:01:55,058
...when we have a walking nuclear deterrent
on our side.

27
00:01:55,228 --> 00:01:57,696
You're referring, of course,
to Dr. Manhattan...

28
00:01:57,864 --> 00:02:01,960
<i>...but does Dr. Manhattan's existence
guarantee world peace? Eleanor Clift.</i>

29
00:02:02,135 --> 00:02:04,865
<i>Well, it hasn't
stopped the Soviet Union...</i>

30
00:02:05,038 --> 00:02:09,702
<i>...from stockpiling record amounts
of nuclear weapons.</i>

31
00:02:09,876 --> 00:02:11,571
You don't think it's just posturing?

32
00:02:11,744 --> 00:02:13,336
Maybe the reason
why the Soviets...

33
00:02:13,513 --> 00:02:16,038
...are doing these bomb tests...

34
00:02:16,215 --> 00:02:20,584
...is because they feeI threatened
by Dr. Manhattan. Of course.

35
00:02:21,154 --> 00:02:24,282

00:03:05,565 --> 00:03:07,829
Just a matter of time, I suppose.

38
00:04:38,458 --> 00:04:42,121
It's a joke. It's all a joke.

39
00:04:42,762 --> 00:04:45,026
Mother, forgive me.

40
00:08:45,805 --> 00:08:48,774
I was a hero, goddamn it!

41
00:08:50,176 --> 00:08:54,340
<i>- an act clearly meant to send
a signal to the government in Saigon...</i>

42
00:08:54,513 --> 00:08:58,847
<i>...that violence and oppression
is not the way to peace.</i>

Good luck, Mr. Gorsky.

No!

47
00:11:37,743 --> 00:11:43,875
Edward Blake. Sixty-seven
years old. Six-two, a solid 225.

48
00:11:44,383 --> 00:11:46,248
Guy was built like a linebacker.

49
00:11:46,418 --> 00:11:48,318
Yeah, I saw the body.

50
00:11:48,487 --> 00:11:50,546
For a guy his age,
he was in terrific shape.

51
00:11:50,723 --> 00:11:53,385
You mean apart from being dead?

52
00:11:54,627 --> 00:11:56,117
That's plate glass.

53
00:11:56,295 --> 00:11:59,196
You'd have to step on the gas
just to put a crack in it.

54
00:11:59,365 --> 00:12:01,424
Had to have been thrown.

55
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:02,794
Check the bedroom?

56
00:12:02,968 --> 00:12:05,903
Yeah. Drawers opened, tossed through.

57
00:12:06,071 --> 00:12:09,131
Mattress flipped. Probably robbery.

58
00:12:09,308 --> 00:12:10,775
Or made to look like one.

59
00:12:10,943 --> 00:12:12,706
See this?

60
00:12:13,012 --> 00:12:16,243
- Shaking hands with the president.
Whoa.

61
00:12:16,415 --> 00:12:18,645
Think Blake was a spook?

62
00:12:18,817 --> 00:12:22,480
Government or black ops?

63
00:12:22,788 --> 00:12:24,688
I think...

64
00:12:24,990 --> 00:12:28,289
...this is way bigger than both of us.

00:12:44,643 --> 00:12:48,579
<i>I've seen its true face.

<i>...and the gutters are full of blood.</i>

70
00:12:51,817 --> 00:12:54,285
<i>And when the drains finally scab over...</i>

71
00:12:55,354 --> 00:12:57,584

Somebody knows.

88
00:15:16,061 --> 00:15:18,552
No, I definitely heard something.

89
00:15:21,900 --> 00:15:23,197
Watch the door.

90
00:15:48,494 --> 00:15:50,052
Shh.

91
00:15:51,029 --> 00:15:53,497
Must've been the wind. Next time you-

92
00:16:07,012 --> 00:16:13,247
It all started with the gangs.
You know, people tend to forget that.

93
00:16:13,919 --> 00:16:17,013
Pirate outfits, ghosts.

94
00:16:17,189 --> 00:16:19,783
They thought it was funny:
dress up and pull heists.

95
00:16:21,493 --> 00:16:24,189
As soon as we'd arrest them,
they'd be back on the street.

96
00:16:24,363 --> 00:16:28,197
Nobody could pick them out of a lineup
because of the damn masks.

97
00:16:28,367 --> 00:16:30,631
So a few of us cops, we get together...

98
00:16:30,802 --> 00:16:34,169
...and we figure, what the heck,
we'll mask up, too.

99
00:16:34,339 --> 00:16:37,035
We'll finish what the law couldn't.

100
00:16:37,843 --> 00:16:41,870
Pretty soon, the papers get wind of it.
They ran with it...

101
00:16:42,047 --> 00:16:45,710
...and oh, boy, we're a nationaI pastime.

102
00:16:45,884 --> 00:16:49,376
It was me, Dollar Bill, Mothman...

103
00:16:49,555 --> 00:16:52,922
...Captain Metropolis, Hooded Justice...

104
00:16:53,091 --> 00:16:56,288
...Silk Spectre and the Comedian.

Oh, don't get me started on him.

106
00:17:02,134 --> 00:17:06,195
I must be drunk already,
telling you this sob story again.

107
00:17:06,371 --> 00:17:08,236
I think you were trying to make a point.

108
00:17:09,141 --> 00:17:15,307
Well, my point is that we had it too easy.
It wasn't fair what happened to you guys-

109
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,610
You guys who picked up where we left off.
- with Nixon forcing you out.

110
00:17:20,652 --> 00:17:25,112
Nixon, oh, that prick. To think I voted
for that prick five times.

111
00:17:25,290 --> 00:17:28,020
Hey, it was him or the commies, right?

112
00:17:30,829 --> 00:17:34,629
Oh, wow, it's almost midnight.
Gotta go.

113
00:17:36,168 --> 00:17:37,795
Truth?

114
00:17:38,470 --> 00:17:42,201
You were a better Nite OwI

115
00:17:42,374 --> 00:17:46,105

- Hey.

116
00:17:46,278 --> 00:17:47,540
Watch it with the language.

117
00:17:47,713 --> 00:17:50,341

00:17:50,515 --> 00:17:51,880
<i>- Yeah.
This just in:</i>

<i>The masked vigilante
known as Rorschach...</i>

120
00:17:54,152 --> 00:17:56,985
<i>...has assaulted a police officer

121
00:17:57,856 --> 00:18:00,848
<i>Rorschach is on the FBI's
Ten Most Wanted list...</i>

122
00:18:01,026 --> 00:18:04,826
<i>...for violation of the Keene Act,

<i>Rorschach reportedly incapacitated...</i>

124
00:18:07,799 --> 00:18:10,199
Forced everyone out except him.

125
00:18:10,369 --> 00:18:11,893
Oh, he'll quit.

126
00:18:12,070 --> 00:18:13,401
When he's dead.

127
00:18:14,039 --> 00:18:16,132
Next week?
Well...

128
00:18:16,308 --> 00:18:20,904
...you know, you don't have to
keep humoring me like this.

129
00:18:21,079 --> 00:18:23,240
If you got a hot date or something...

130
00:18:23,415 --> 00:18:26,213
Hey, us retired guys
have to stick together, right?

131
00:18:27,986 --> 00:18:29,851
You ever miss it?

132
00:18:31,056 --> 00:18:33,149
No. You?

133
00:18:33,725 --> 00:18:35,522
Oh, heck, no.

134
00:18:36,828 --> 00:18:38,591
Be seeing you.

135
00:19:52,371 --> 00:19:53,668
Hello, DanieI.

136
00:19:54,406 --> 00:19:55,498
Rorschach.

137
00:19:56,575 --> 00:20:00,875
Helped myself to some beans.
Hope you don't mind.

138
00:20:01,046 --> 00:20:03,480
No, no. Course not.

139
00:20:05,083 --> 00:20:07,643
You want me to heat those up for you?

140
00:20:07,819 --> 00:20:09,343
Fine like this.

141
00:20:10,922 --> 00:20:12,116
How have you been keeping?

142
00:20:16,495 --> 00:20:18,292
Out of prison.

143
00:20:19,998 --> 00:20:22,228
Heard about you on the news.

144
00:20:22,834 --> 00:20:25,064
Say you attacked a cop.

145
00:20:25,237 --> 00:20:28,001
Minor wound.
Won't need hospitalization.

146
00:20:28,874 --> 00:20:30,034
DanieI...

147
00:20:30,208 --> 00:20:31,505
...look at this.

148
00:20:37,282 --> 00:20:39,910
Is this bean juice?
Human bean juice.

149
00:20:40,619 --> 00:20:45,113
Badge belonged to the Comedian.
Blood too. He's dead.

150
00:20:47,125 --> 00:20:48,592
Let's talk downstairs.

151
00:20:57,502 --> 00:20:59,265
It could have been a burglary.

152
00:20:59,438 --> 00:21:02,134
Maybe the killer didn't know
who the Comedian was.

153
00:21:02,307 --> 00:21:07,040
An ordinary burglar?
Kill the Comedian? Ridiculous.

154
00:21:08,613 --> 00:21:12,049
I heard he'd been working
for the government since '77...

155
00:21:12,217 --> 00:21:15,380
...knocking over Marxist republics
in South America.

156
00:21:15,554 --> 00:21:18,489
Maybe it was a politicaI killing
or something.

157
00:21:18,657 --> 00:21:19,919
Maybe.

158
00:21:20,091 --> 00:21:23,356
Maybe someone's picking off
costumed heroes.

159
00:21:23,528 --> 00:21:25,621
You don't think that's a little paranoid?

160
00:21:25,797 --> 00:21:28,357
That what they say about me now?

161
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:29,862
Paranoid?

162
00:21:30,035 --> 00:21:32,868
Look, Comedian made
a lot of enemies over the years...

163
00:21:33,038 --> 00:21:34,528
...even among his friends.

164
00:21:34,706 --> 00:21:36,867
Speaking of friends, how's Hollis Mason?

165
00:21:37,742 --> 00:21:41,701
He wrote that book. Said some bad things
about the Comedian in it.

166
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,941
I don't like what you're implying,
and I like being followed even less.

167
00:21:46,485 --> 00:21:50,945
Maybe I was keeping an eye on you,
in case someone's gunning for masks.

168
00:21:51,122 --> 00:21:55,786
- You were never that sentimentaI.
- Attack on one is attack on all of us.

169
00:21:56,228 --> 00:21:58,662
What do you suggest we do about it?

170
00:21:59,564 --> 00:22:00,724
Retribution.

171
00:22:02,133 --> 00:22:05,432
- Watchmen are over.
- Says Tricky Dick.

172
00:22:05,604 --> 00:22:07,367
Says me.

173
00:22:09,975 --> 00:22:11,602
Nobody knows who you are.

174
00:22:11,776 --> 00:22:14,745
You can give it up,
try and have a normaI life.

175
00:22:14,913 --> 00:22:18,815
That what you have now?
A normaI life?

176
00:22:19,818 --> 00:22:23,185
When you walk down the street
in a city dying of rabies...

177
00:22:23,355 --> 00:22:24,822
...past the human cockroaches...

178
00:22:24,990 --> 00:22:27,754
...talking about their heroin
and child pornography...

179
00:22:27,926 --> 00:22:29,450
...do you really feeI normaI?

180
00:22:30,595 --> 00:22:33,359
Least I'm not the one
still hiding behind a mask.

181
00:22:35,233 --> 00:22:36,495
No.

182
00:22:38,169 --> 00:22:40,296
You're hiding in plain sight.

183
00:22:41,673 --> 00:22:43,834
Be seeing you, Dan.

184
00:22:44,342 --> 00:22:46,810
A maintenance hatch
will let you out two blocks north.

185
00:22:46,978 --> 00:22:48,707
Yeah, I remember.

186
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:52,941
Came here often,
when we were partners.

187
00:22:53,118 --> 00:22:55,018
Those were great times, huh,
Rorschach?

188
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,751
- What happened?
- You quit.

189
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,409
<i>Rorschach's journal.</i>

190
00:23:23,582 --> 00:23:25,914
<i>First visit of evening fruitless.</i>

191
00:23:26,084 --> 00:23:28,177
<i>Feel slightly depressed.</i>

192
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,620
<i>Soon there will be war.</i>

193
00:23:30,789 --> 00:23:34,350
<i>Millions will perish
in sickness and misery.</i>

194
00:23:34,526 --> 00:23:37,051
<i>Why does one death matter
against so many?</i>

195
00:23:37,796 --> 00:23:42,597
<i>Because there is good and evil,
and evil must be punished.</i>

196
00:23:42,767 --> 00:23:45,600
<i>Even in the face of armageddon...</i>

197
00:23:45,770 --> 00:23:48,705
<i>...I will not compromise in this.</i>

198
00:23:49,274 --> 00:23:50,298
Mr. Veidt...

199
00:23:50,475 --> 00:23:52,602
...to date,
you're one of only two Watchmen...

200
00:23:52,777 --> 00:23:55,211
...ever to reveaI their true identity
to the world...

201
00:23:55,380 --> 00:23:57,177
...the first being Hollis Mason.

202
00:23:57,349 --> 00:24:00,341
And you've certainly profited greatly
by it...

203
00:24:00,518 --> 00:24:05,785
...turning your superhero alter ego,
Ozymandias, into a billion-dollar industry:

204
00:24:05,957 --> 00:24:09,017
Toys, lunchboxes, genetic engineering.

205
00:24:09,194 --> 00:24:11,253
I understand there's a movie
in the works.

206
00:24:11,429 --> 00:24:15,627
- I'm not hearing a question, Mr. Roth.
I'm sorry. Do you think-

207
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,360
The Watchmen resent me
for prostituting their struggle?

208
00:24:18,536 --> 00:24:21,266
It's a fair question.
Yes, it's crossed my mind...

209
00:24:21,439 --> 00:24:24,465
...some of my old colleagues
might see it that way...

210
00:24:24,643 --> 00:24:27,635
...just as you're clearly aware
that biased journalism...

211
00:24:27,812 --> 00:24:30,406
...sells more magazines.

212
00:24:30,915 --> 00:24:35,682
The merchandising arm of Veidt Industries
is funding our work with Dr. Manhattan.

213
00:24:35,854 --> 00:24:38,789
We recently expanded our research facility
in Antarctica...

214
00:24:38,957 --> 00:24:42,188
...in the hope of developing cheap,
renewable sources of energy...

215
00:24:42,360 --> 00:24:45,352
...that we might eliminate
the world's reliance on fossiI fuels.

216
00:24:45,530 --> 00:24:47,964
Now, it doesn't take
a politicaI scientist...

217
00:24:48,133 --> 00:24:51,534
...to see that our Cold War
with the Russians isn't ideologicaI...

218
00:24:51,703 --> 00:24:55,195
...it's based upon fear.
Fear of not having enough.

219
00:24:55,573 --> 00:24:59,270
But if we make resources infinite...

220
00:24:59,444 --> 00:25:01,537
...ah...

221
00:25:01,713 --> 00:25:03,806
...we make war obsolete.

222
00:25:04,649 --> 00:25:08,483
I would hope the other Watchmen
understand that...

223
00:25:09,688 --> 00:25:11,349
...wherever they may be.

224
00:25:13,458 --> 00:25:14,823
Thanks for your time.

225
00:25:21,066 --> 00:25:23,728
- You look good, Adrian.
- Dan.

226
00:25:23,902 --> 00:25:26,132
It's been too long.

227
00:25:27,872 --> 00:25:31,933
So Rorschach thinks
someone's hunting the Watchmen, huh?

228
00:25:32,610 --> 00:25:34,475
You think it's possible?

229
00:25:34,646 --> 00:25:37,376
Statistically, one murder
doesn't equaI a trend.

230
00:25:38,516 --> 00:25:40,484
Rorschach's a sociopath, Dan.

231
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,486
And so was the Comedian.
He was practically a Nazi.

232
00:25:45,323 --> 00:25:47,348
You know that better than anyone.

233
00:25:47,525 --> 00:25:49,720
I'm not here because I miss him.

234
00:25:49,894 --> 00:25:51,225
It's occurred to Rorschach...

235
00:25:51,396 --> 00:25:54,365
...that we're the only ones
who know each other's identities.

236
00:25:54,866 --> 00:25:56,959
Actually, the whole world knows yours.

237
00:25:57,736 --> 00:26:00,204
That's why I'm warning you first.

238
00:26:03,808 --> 00:26:05,799
Thank you, Dan...

239
00:26:07,412 --> 00:26:11,212
...but I fear there's something
much more reaI to worry about...

240
00:26:11,382 --> 00:26:13,976
...than Rorschach's mask killer.

241
00:26:15,487 --> 00:26:20,015
If the Russians do launch their nukes,
can Jon really stop them?

242
00:26:20,191 --> 00:26:23,820
The Soviets have 51,000
warheads stockpiled.

243
00:26:23,995 --> 00:26:27,192
Even if Jon stops 99 percent of them...

244
00:26:27,365 --> 00:26:31,563
...the 1 percent that get through
could still kill every living thing on Earth.

245
00:26:34,305 --> 00:26:36,671
Even Dr. Manhattan
can't be everywhere at once.

Good evening, Rorschach.

267
00:28:11,903 --> 00:28:15,395
Dr. Manhattan, you know why I'm here.

268
00:28:15,573 --> 00:28:17,006
Yes...

269
00:28:18,276 --> 00:28:20,244
...but you're going to leave disappointed.

270
00:28:20,411 --> 00:28:24,142
Rorschach. You shouldn't be here.
You're a wanted man.

271
00:28:24,315 --> 00:28:26,510
Nice to see you too, Silk Spectre.

272
00:28:26,684 --> 00:28:28,743
I have a reaI name I've been using.

273
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:29,944
Try it.

274
00:28:30,121 --> 00:28:32,214
Whatever you say, Laurie.

275
00:28:32,390 --> 00:28:33,618
What are you doing here?

276
00:28:33,791 --> 00:28:36,123
The Comedian is dead.

277
00:28:36,294 --> 00:28:38,387
Rorschach wants me
to look into my future...

278
00:28:38,730 --> 00:28:41,198
...see if the killer is ever
publicly identified.

279
00:28:41,366 --> 00:28:44,460
Already warned Dreiberg.
Came to warn you too.

280
00:28:47,171 --> 00:28:49,537
Even if I wanted to help...

281
00:28:50,141 --> 00:28:54,043
...my future is blocked
by some kind of temporaI interference.

282
00:28:54,445 --> 00:28:58,506
- I cannot see it clearly.
- Interference? Caused by what?

283
00:28:58,683 --> 00:29:02,084
In all likelihood, nuclear holocaust.

284
00:29:02,820 --> 00:29:06,916
If the United States and Soviet Union
engage in all-out war...

285
00:29:07,091 --> 00:29:11,084
...the resulting blast wave would produce
a sudden burst of tachyons...

286
00:29:11,262 --> 00:29:16,222
...particles which traveI backward
through what you perceive as time...

287
00:29:16,868 --> 00:29:20,201
...therefore obscuring my vision
of the present.

288
00:29:21,005 --> 00:29:22,404
I must return to my work.

289
00:29:22,573 --> 00:29:23,699
Wait a minute.

290
00:29:23,875 --> 00:29:26,366
What if that's why
someone wants us out of the way?

291
00:29:26,544 --> 00:29:28,774
So we can't do anything to stop it?

292
00:29:28,947 --> 00:29:30,778
Goodbye, Rorschach.

293
00:29:30,949 --> 00:29:33,213
Took a lot of effort
to get in here to see you.

294
00:29:33,384 --> 00:29:34,715
I'm not leaving-

295
00:29:35,987 --> 00:29:38,319
till I've had my say.

296
00:29:45,830 --> 00:29:48,765
Seems like there's a lot of things
you don't tell me these days.

297
00:29:48,933 --> 00:29:51,629
I didn't wanna worry you prematurely.

298
00:29:52,103 --> 00:29:56,233
If Adrian and I can solve the energy crisis,
war may be averted.

299
00:29:56,407 --> 00:29:58,466
But you always say time is simultaneous.

300
00:29:59,177 --> 00:30:02,044
If that's true,
then how can you change the future?

301
00:30:02,213 --> 00:30:07,207
If only you could perceive time as I do.

302
00:30:07,385 --> 00:30:08,647
Please let me show you.

303
00:30:14,625 --> 00:30:19,562
Magic. Dreams. That is what I had before.
I was a hero, goddamn it!

304
00:30:19,731 --> 00:30:22,791
It's not my fault you got old.
What do you have to complain about?

305
00:30:22,967 --> 00:30:25,401
I'm putting food on the table
for you and your child.

306
00:30:25,570 --> 00:30:28,334
Call your friend Eddie.
Maybe he can give you a better life.

307
00:30:28,506 --> 00:30:32,670
- It was a mistake. One time.
- Man tries to rape you-

308
00:30:32,977 --> 00:30:34,342
Stop!

309
00:30:35,113 --> 00:30:36,580
Your mind goes to dark places...

310
00:30:36,748 --> 00:30:39,080
...and you wonder
why I keep the worst from you.

311
00:30:43,021 --> 00:30:46,457
- Say hello to Dan for me.
- What?

312
00:30:48,226 --> 00:30:51,024
You wanna ask me
to go to dinner with you...

313
00:30:52,730 --> 00:30:54,891
...like we used to...

314
00:30:56,334 --> 00:30:57,460
...but you won't.

315
00:30:58,236 --> 00:31:00,500
You know I can't.

316
00:31:03,141 --> 00:31:05,405
So you'll call Dan...

317
00:31:05,843 --> 00:31:08,038
...which is only naturaI.

318
00:31:08,379 --> 00:31:10,973
You deserve the comfort of an old friend.

319
00:31:45,283 --> 00:31:46,807
Dan Dreiberg's table.

320
00:32:07,972 --> 00:32:11,738
Did you know that
he and H.J. were-? I had no idea.

321
00:32:12,243 --> 00:32:15,303
You remember that crazy guy?
What'd he call himself?

322
00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:16,970
Captain Carnage.

323
00:32:17,148 --> 00:32:20,345
Used to pretend he was a supervillain
just so he could get beat up?

324
00:32:20,518 --> 00:32:22,918
Yeah, he tried that on me once.
I just walked away.

325
00:32:23,087 --> 00:32:26,113
He starts following me down the street
in broad daylight...

326
00:32:26,290 --> 00:32:29,088
...yelling, "Punish me! Punish me!"

327
00:32:29,327 --> 00:32:31,852
I'm just saying, "No, get lost. "

328
00:32:32,997 --> 00:32:35,465
God, whatever happened to him?

329
00:32:35,633 --> 00:32:37,794
Oh. Um...
He pulled that on Rorschach...

330
00:32:37,969 --> 00:32:40,369
...and Rorschach
dropped him down an elevator shaft.

331
00:32:46,844 --> 00:32:49,244
Oh, my God. That's not even funny.

332
00:32:49,947 --> 00:32:52,438
- It's a little funny.
- Yep.

333
00:32:54,352 --> 00:32:56,320
I'm glad I ordered
the four-legged chicken.

334
00:32:56,487 --> 00:32:58,455
It's really good to see you again.

335
00:32:59,690 --> 00:33:01,214
It's great seeing you too.

336
00:33:02,026 --> 00:33:04,551
Why'd we do it, Dan? Dress up like that?

337
00:33:05,696 --> 00:33:09,029
- No one else would.
- Yeah, but do you remember my costume?

338
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:12,294
All that tight latex?
I mean, it was awfuI.

339
00:33:12,470 --> 00:33:15,439
Uh... Yeah, yeah, awfuI.

340
00:33:15,606 --> 00:33:18,040
But didn't wanna disappoint Mother.

341
00:33:18,209 --> 00:33:22,202
Wanted her little girI to be just like her
and fight bad guys.

342
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:26,475
I think the Keene Act was the best thing
that ever happened to us.

343
00:33:27,552 --> 00:33:29,918
Well, we'll live longer anyway.

344
00:33:33,224 --> 00:33:34,748
What?

345
00:33:35,726 --> 00:33:40,220
Jon thinks, unless he can do something
about it...

346
00:33:41,065 --> 00:33:43,090
...that there's gonna be nuclear war.

347
00:33:43,568 --> 00:33:45,058
Soon.

348
00:33:45,937 --> 00:33:49,270
But I don't know what to think.
I mean, it's all...

349
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,500
...quantum mechanics
and paralleI realities with him.

350
00:33:52,677 --> 00:33:55,441
I never even know
what universe he's actually seeing.

351
00:33:56,747 --> 00:33:59,875
He just keeps getting further away
from me.

352
00:34:00,585 --> 00:34:02,246
Everyone.

353
00:34:03,354 --> 00:34:06,016
I can't even tell
if he actually cares about me anymore...

354
00:34:06,190 --> 00:34:08,215
...or if he's just pretending.

355
00:34:08,926 --> 00:34:11,861
If he's pretending, it means he cares.

356
00:34:16,601 --> 00:34:18,592
Hold on, I'll get the door.

357
00:34:19,937 --> 00:34:21,734
Thanks, Dan.

358
00:34:22,106 --> 00:34:24,131
- Got it?
- Yeah.

359
00:34:29,547 --> 00:34:32,539
You always get
a government escort to dinner?

360
00:34:33,251 --> 00:34:37,312
They're making sure I don't do anything to
upset the country's most powerfuI weapon.

361
00:34:39,090 --> 00:34:40,318
I'm sorry.

362
00:34:40,491 --> 00:34:44,393
I invite you out to dinner to catch up
and have a few laughs...

363
00:34:44,762 --> 00:34:48,129
...but there don't seem to be many laughs
around these days.

364
00:34:48,299 --> 00:34:52,099
What do you expect?
The Comedian's dead.

365
00:36:35,639 --> 00:36:39,200
Laurie? Is that you?

366
00:36:41,912 --> 00:36:44,881
Thought you'd be used
to traveling that way by now.

367
00:36:45,549 --> 00:36:49,542
Well, I'm not.
I hate it when Jon teleports me.

368
00:36:49,720 --> 00:36:52,587
Well, it beats flying coach.

369
00:36:52,957 --> 00:36:54,948
Margarita?

370
00:36:55,192 --> 00:36:57,353
Mother, it's 2:00 in the afternoon.

371
00:37:00,064 --> 00:37:01,531
Mm.

372
00:37:02,199 --> 00:37:04,497
Remember that guy
that writes me letters?

373
00:37:04,869 --> 00:37:08,168
He sent me an item of memorabilia.
It's a Tijuana bible.

374
00:37:08,339 --> 00:37:12,503
This little eight-page porno comic
they did in the '30s and '40s.

375
00:37:12,676 --> 00:37:16,703
- He sent you this?
- Sure. They're very valuable, like antiques.

376
00:37:17,515 --> 00:37:19,210
Mother, this is gross.

377
00:37:19,383 --> 00:37:21,647
I think it's kind of flattering.

378
00:37:21,819 --> 00:37:24,083
Why do you always call me Mother
when you're mad?

379
00:37:25,456 --> 00:37:29,517
I know why you're here.
I can still read, you know.

380
00:37:30,294 --> 00:37:32,524
I saw it in the paper.

381
00:37:33,197 --> 00:37:36,098
Eddie Blake's funeraI is today.

382
00:37:37,902 --> 00:37:40,894
Finally got his punchline, I guess.

383
00:37:41,372 --> 00:37:44,205
- Poor Eddie.
- Poor Eddie? After what he did to you?

384
00:37:44,909 --> 00:37:46,433
Oh, Laurie, you're still young.

385
00:37:47,211 --> 00:37:49,145
You don't know.

386
00:37:49,313 --> 00:37:51,076
Things change.

387
00:37:51,916 --> 00:37:54,680
What happened happened 40 years ago.

388
00:37:54,852 --> 00:37:58,117
I'm 67 years old.

389
00:37:58,289 --> 00:38:02,487
Every day, the future
looks a little bit darker.

390
00:38:03,327 --> 00:38:05,488
But the past...

391
00:38:05,996 --> 00:38:08,988
...even the grimy parts of it...

392
00:38:09,533 --> 00:38:12,161
...keep on getting brighter.

393
00:38:17,675 --> 00:38:20,508
I've got spots in my eyes.

394
00:38:23,981 --> 00:38:26,643
Stop it, Eddie.

395
00:38:27,618 --> 00:38:30,985
- Thank you, Weegee.
- Thank you, Mr. OwI.

396
00:38:32,189 --> 00:38:35,386
Tomorrow, 3:00, my studio.

397
00:38:35,559 --> 00:38:38,722
- Little place on 21 st.
- Sounds good.

398
00:38:38,896 --> 00:38:43,492
Wow, a reaI photo session.
Wonder how my hair will look?

399
00:38:45,803 --> 00:38:49,000
Oh, go ahead. I'll be there in five.

400
00:39:05,489 --> 00:39:06,513
Eddie.

401
00:39:07,591 --> 00:39:11,652
What the hell are you doing here?
You knew I was changing.

402
00:39:11,829 --> 00:39:13,421
Sure I did.

403
00:39:15,065 --> 00:39:16,657
Come on, baby.

404
00:39:17,101 --> 00:39:19,092
I know what you need.

405
00:39:19,270 --> 00:39:23,331
You gotta have some kind of reason
for dressing in an outfit like this.

406
00:39:23,507 --> 00:39:25,805
I said no, Eddie.

407
00:39:26,443 --> 00:39:31,346
- No spelled Y-E-S.
- No spelled N-O.

408
00:39:31,515 --> 00:39:34,951
- All right?
- Come on, sweetheart.

409
00:39:38,889 --> 00:39:40,481
Eddie...

410
00:40:21,332 --> 00:40:24,062
You little bastard.

411
00:40:30,674 --> 00:40:31,698
This what you like?

412
00:40:31,875 --> 00:40:34,366
- This what makes you hot?
- What?

413
00:40:44,855 --> 00:40:48,052
Things are tough all over, cupcake.

414
00:40:48,225 --> 00:40:52,321
It rains on the just and the unjust alike.

415
00:40:52,496 --> 00:40:56,330
The Comedian was a little bit of both.

416
00:40:57,801 --> 00:41:01,168
And he always thought
he'd get the last laugh.

417
00:41:01,705 --> 00:41:04,765
Thou knowest, Lord,
the secrets of our hearts.

418
00:41:05,376 --> 00:41:08,709
Shut not thy mercifuI ears
to our prayers...

419
00:41:08,879 --> 00:41:13,475
...but spare us, Lord most holy,
O God most mighty...

420
00:41:13,651 --> 00:41:16,711
...O holy and mercifuI savior.

421
00:41:17,388 --> 00:41:20,118
Thou most worthy judge eternaI.

422
00:41:20,290 --> 00:41:23,623
Suffer us not at our last hour
for any-

423
00:42:50,581 --> 00:42:53,015
Fireworks. You gotta be kidding me.

424
00:42:53,183 --> 00:42:57,916
You know, you'd think this goddamn
country had had enough fireworks.

425
00:42:58,822 --> 00:43:01,416
You know, if we'd lost here in Vietnam...

426
00:43:01,592 --> 00:43:06,552
...I think it might have driven us crazy.
You know, as a country.

427
00:43:07,331 --> 00:43:11,028
But we didn't, thanks to you.

428
00:43:13,003 --> 00:43:14,937
You sound bitter.

429
00:43:15,105 --> 00:43:16,766
Me? Bitter?

430
00:43:16,940 --> 00:43:20,000
Fuck, no. I think it's hilarious.

431
00:43:26,350 --> 00:43:28,181
Oh, Jesus Christ.

432
00:43:28,352 --> 00:43:31,344
- Mr. Eddie?
- Just what I fucking needed.

433
00:43:31,522 --> 00:43:36,585
The war is over now.
We must talk about this baby.

434
00:43:37,361 --> 00:43:40,888
There's nothing to talk about.
See, I'm leaving.

435
00:43:41,064 --> 00:43:42,395
I'm gonna forget about you...

436
00:43:42,566 --> 00:43:45,399
...and your horrible, sweaty,
little piece-of-shit country.

437
00:43:45,969 --> 00:43:47,129
Get the fuck out of here.

438
00:43:48,872 --> 00:43:50,737
- No.
- Get the fuck out of here.

439
00:43:50,908 --> 00:43:52,273
You will remember.

440
00:43:54,044 --> 00:43:56,774
You will remember me and my country...

441
00:43:57,648 --> 00:43:59,275
...forever!

442
00:44:01,885 --> 00:44:03,750
My face!

443
00:44:05,956 --> 00:44:07,116
Blake. Don't.

444
00:44:07,925 --> 00:44:09,222
Blake!

445
00:44:16,099 --> 00:44:18,590
She was pregnant...

446
00:44:19,870 --> 00:44:21,599
...and you gunned her down.

447
00:44:21,772 --> 00:44:23,034
That's right...

448
00:44:23,207 --> 00:44:25,141
...and you know what? You watched me.

449
00:44:25,309 --> 00:44:28,301
You could have turned the gun to steam,
the bullets to mercury...

450
00:44:28,478 --> 00:44:32,073
...the bottle into goddamn snowflakes,
but you didn't, did you?

451
00:44:34,017 --> 00:44:36,850
You really don't give a damn
about human beings.

452
00:44:38,021 --> 00:44:40,854
You're drifting out of touch, Doc.

453
00:44:42,426 --> 00:44:44,621
God help us all.

454
00:44:46,630 --> 00:44:47,927
Medic!

455
00:44:54,771 --> 00:44:57,934
<i>Most holy and merciful savior.</i>

456
00:44:58,876 --> 00:45:03,779
He cometh up and is cut down,
like a flower.

457
00:45:03,947 --> 00:45:08,145
In the midst of life, we are in death.

458
00:45:08,318 --> 00:45:12,618
Of whom may we seek succor,
but of thee, O Lord?

459
00:45:17,027 --> 00:45:20,087
Welcome. We'll be starting shortly.

460
00:45:20,264 --> 00:45:22,357
We're waiting for one more.

461
00:45:33,143 --> 00:45:36,476
I told you, you wouldn't be
the only one dressed up.

462
00:45:38,115 --> 00:45:39,514
Welcome, doctor.

463
00:45:39,950 --> 00:45:41,577
Now we can start.

464
00:45:41,752 --> 00:45:45,586
Thank you for coming. Acquaint yourselves
with this map of high-crime areas.

465
00:45:46,957 --> 00:45:48,083
This is all bullshit.

466
00:45:48,892 --> 00:45:53,261
For a guy who calls himself the Comedian,
I can never tell when you're joking.

467
00:45:53,430 --> 00:45:56,831
Watchmen. That's the reaI joke.

468
00:45:57,000 --> 00:45:59,798
It didn't work 15 years ago,
and it ain't gonna work now...

469
00:45:59,970 --> 00:46:02,097
...because you wanna play
cowboys and Indians.

470
00:46:02,272 --> 00:46:04,638
Maybe we should agree
on no drinking at meetings.

471
00:46:06,443 --> 00:46:10,174
Rorschach and I have made headway
on the gang problem by working together.

472
00:46:10,347 --> 00:46:14,681
A group this size seems like
a publicity stunt. I'm not in it for the ink.

473
00:46:14,851 --> 00:46:16,648
We can do so much more.

474
00:46:16,820 --> 00:46:19,015
We can save this world...

475
00:46:20,624 --> 00:46:23,787
- ... with the right leadership.
- Yeah.

476
00:46:26,163 --> 00:46:27,926
And that'd be you, right, Ozzy?

477
00:46:28,098 --> 00:46:30,862
I mean, hell,
you're the smartest man on the planet.

478
00:46:31,034 --> 00:46:33,696
It doesn't take a genius
to see the world has problems.

479
00:46:34,071 --> 00:46:37,734
But it takes a room of morons to think
they're small enough for you to handle.

480
00:46:38,241 --> 00:46:39,401
You people.

481
00:46:39,576 --> 00:46:43,034
You hear Moloch's back in town,
get your panties all in a bunch.

482
00:46:43,213 --> 00:46:46,046
- You think catching him matters?
- Justice matters.

483
00:46:47,617 --> 00:46:49,448
Justice.

484
00:46:50,053 --> 00:46:52,078
Justice is coming to all of us.

485
00:46:52,255 --> 00:46:53,722
No matter what the fuck we do.

486
00:46:54,458 --> 00:46:58,394
You know, mankind's been trying to kill
each other off since the beginning of time.

487
00:46:58,562 --> 00:47:03,397
Now we finally have the power
to finish the job.

488
00:47:03,633 --> 00:47:07,262
Ain't nothing gonna matter once
those nukes start flying. We'll all be dust.

489
00:47:10,407 --> 00:47:12,432
Then Ozymandias here...

490
00:47:13,443 --> 00:47:15,707
...will be the smartest man
on the cinder.

491
00:47:24,621 --> 00:47:26,680
<i>For as much as it hath pleased...</i>

492
00:47:27,557 --> 00:47:31,823
...almighty God to take onto himself
the souI of our dear departed brother...

493
00:47:33,230 --> 00:47:37,291
...let us therefore commit his body
to the ground.

494
00:47:37,467 --> 00:47:40,925
Earth to earth, ashes to ashes...

495
00:48:04,694 --> 00:48:10,963
Watchmen! Police!
Police to protect the people!

496
00:48:15,505 --> 00:48:19,532
Attention, citizens.
We are trying to maintain order.

497
00:48:19,709 --> 00:48:24,146
You must clear the streets
untiI the police strike is over.

498
00:48:24,314 --> 00:48:27,477
If you could-
Please, there's no need for violence.

499
00:48:28,452 --> 00:48:32,548
We are trying to retain order on the streets
untiI the police strike is over.

500
00:48:32,722 --> 00:48:34,917
CrawI back in your holes
before you get hurt.

501
00:48:35,125 --> 00:48:37,252
- I got rubber bullets.
I want my rights!

502
00:48:37,427 --> 00:48:40,055
- You are not the law!
We want regular cops!

503
00:48:40,230 --> 00:48:41,492
No more vigilantes!

504
00:48:41,665 --> 00:48:45,226
My son's a police officer,
you fucking faggots!

505
00:48:46,837 --> 00:48:49,635
Goddamn it. All right.
That's how you wanna do it?

506
00:49:01,384 --> 00:49:03,045
There's no need for violence.

507
00:49:03,220 --> 00:49:06,348
Fuck you. Fuck you!

508
00:49:12,596 --> 00:49:14,325
Oh, this is getting heavy.

509
00:49:38,755 --> 00:49:42,156
Goddamn, I love working
on American soiI, Dan.

510
00:49:42,325 --> 00:49:44,759
Ain't had this much fun
since Woodward and Bernstein.

511
00:49:44,928 --> 00:49:46,555
How long can we keep this up?

512
00:49:46,730 --> 00:49:50,325
Congress is pushing through some new bill
that's gonna outlaw masks.

513
00:49:50,500 --> 00:49:51,762
Our days are numbered.

514
00:49:51,935 --> 00:49:56,201
UntiI then, it's like you always say:
We're society's only protection.

515
00:49:56,373 --> 00:50:00,935
- From what?
- Are you kidding me? From themselves.

516
00:50:01,111 --> 00:50:03,306
- Son of a bitch.
No, Comedian, wait!

517
00:50:04,848 --> 00:50:06,748
Get your stinking hands off me.

518
00:50:08,919 --> 00:50:11,387
What the hell happened to us?

519
00:50:15,692 --> 00:50:18,024
What happened to the American dream?

520
00:50:18,862 --> 00:50:21,695
What happened to the American dream?

521
00:50:21,865 --> 00:50:23,992
It came true!

522
00:50:24,167 --> 00:50:26,192
You're looking at it.

523
00:52:28,658 --> 00:52:30,125
Edgar William Jacobi.

524
00:52:30,293 --> 00:52:34,127
Also known as Edgar William Vaughn.
Also known as Moloch.

525
00:52:38,168 --> 00:52:40,432
What are you talking about?

526
00:52:41,371 --> 00:52:42,804
I'm a retired businessman-

527
00:52:45,108 --> 00:52:47,941
Lie again, Moloch, I break another finger.

528
00:52:48,111 --> 00:52:50,136
I did my time.

529
00:52:50,313 --> 00:52:53,111
I'm not Moloch anymore.

530
00:52:53,717 --> 00:52:58,154
- What do you want from me?
- Heard you attended Blake's funeraI. Why?

531
00:52:58,321 --> 00:53:01,779
I just felt I should...

532
00:53:02,959 --> 00:53:05,860
...pay my respects to the Comedian.

533
00:53:08,331 --> 00:53:13,064
- How'd you know he was the Comedian?
- He broke in here. A week ago.

534
00:53:13,236 --> 00:53:15,568
He had his mask off.

535
00:53:16,039 --> 00:53:19,531
- He was drunk.
- Enemies. For decades.

536
00:53:19,709 --> 00:53:22,735
- Why should he visit you?
- I don't know.

537
00:53:22,912 --> 00:53:25,847
I woke up in my bedroom
and there he was.

538
00:53:26,015 --> 00:53:27,983
He was upset.

539
00:53:28,551 --> 00:53:30,075
He was crying.

540
00:53:30,587 --> 00:53:32,885
Crying? The Comedian?

541
00:53:33,056 --> 00:53:36,048
<i>He was babbling, not making any sense.</i>

542
00:53:36,226 --> 00:53:39,218
<i>I was pissing in my pants.</i>

543
00:53:39,396 --> 00:53:41,694
<i>I thought he was gonna kill me.</i>

544
00:53:41,865 --> 00:53:44,129
<i>What did he say?</i>

545
00:53:45,435 --> 00:53:47,096
It's a joke.

546
00:53:47,837 --> 00:53:50,397
It's all a fucking joke.

547
00:53:52,442 --> 00:53:54,842
You know, I thought I knew how it was.

548
00:53:55,011 --> 00:53:58,037
I thought I knew how the world was.

549
00:53:59,182 --> 00:54:01,844
I've done some bad things.

550
00:54:02,519 --> 00:54:06,114
I did bad things to women. I shot kids.

551
00:54:06,289 --> 00:54:08,553
In 'Nam, you know.

552
00:54:09,125 --> 00:54:10,558
But that was fucking war.

553
00:54:11,528 --> 00:54:12,859
This...

554
00:54:13,530 --> 00:54:16,192
I never done anything like this.

555
00:54:18,868 --> 00:54:21,803
God, here I am...

556
00:54:21,971 --> 00:54:24,064
...spilling my guts...

557
00:54:24,541 --> 00:54:26,031
...to one of my archenemies.

558
00:54:28,211 --> 00:54:30,543
But the truth is...

559
00:54:31,147 --> 00:54:35,743
...you're the closest thing to a friend I got.
What the fuck does that say?

560
00:54:39,656 --> 00:54:41,851
Shit.

561
00:54:43,393 --> 00:54:45,054
And your name...

562
00:54:45,228 --> 00:54:47,753
...your name was on the list...

563
00:54:47,964 --> 00:54:52,264
...along with Janey, you know,
whatever the fuck her name is.

564
00:54:52,435 --> 00:54:54,869
Manhattan's old girI.

565
00:54:59,075 --> 00:55:01,236
Mother, forgive me.

566
00:55:02,412 --> 00:55:04,073
<i>And then he left.</i>

567
00:55:05,081 --> 00:55:09,677
<i>I swear I don't know
what the hell he was talking about.</i>

568
00:55:16,426 --> 00:55:18,394
Funny story.

569
00:55:18,862 --> 00:55:21,194
Sounds unbelievable.

570
00:55:21,965 --> 00:55:23,899
Probably true.

571
00:55:24,067 --> 00:55:26,763
So that's it?

572
00:55:26,936 --> 00:55:31,066
- I'm clean?
- You?

573
00:55:32,275 --> 00:55:33,606
Clean?

574
00:55:38,548 --> 00:55:39,640
Amygdalin.

575
00:55:39,816 --> 00:55:42,512
This phony medication
made from apricot pits.

576
00:55:42,685 --> 00:55:45,916
- It's illegaI.
- Come on.

577
00:55:47,790 --> 00:55:50,122
Please don't confiscate that.

578
00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:53,758
I'm trying anything.

579
00:55:55,231 --> 00:55:56,721
I have cancer.

580
00:55:57,734 --> 00:55:59,065
What kind of cancer?

581
00:56:00,970 --> 00:56:03,996
You know the kind
you eventually get better from?

582
00:56:05,909 --> 00:56:07,900
That ain't the kind I got.

583
00:56:11,147 --> 00:56:15,106
<i>Rorschach's journal. October 16th.</i>

584
00:56:15,285 --> 00:56:18,118
Want some of this?
Fifty bucks, I'll suck your cock.

585
00:56:18,321 --> 00:56:21,085
<i>- Thought about Moloch's story.
- Come on.</i>

586
00:56:21,257 --> 00:56:23,191
<i>Could all be lies.</i>

587
00:56:23,359 --> 00:56:27,659
<i>A revenge scheme
planned during his years behind bars.</i>

588
00:56:27,830 --> 00:56:32,927
Fuck you. I make more in a week
than you make in a year, you fucking homo.

589
00:56:33,102 --> 00:56:34,694
<i>But if it's true...</i>

590
00:56:34,871 --> 00:56:37,135
<i>...what could have possibly
scared the Comedian...</i>

591
00:56:37,307 --> 00:56:39,172
<i>...enough to cry in front of Moloch?</i>

592
00:56:40,543 --> 00:56:41,567
<i>What was it he saw?</i>

593
00:56:43,346 --> 00:56:45,007
<i>And that list he mentioned.</i>

594
00:56:49,185 --> 00:56:52,586
<i>Edward Blake. The Comedian.</i>

595
00:56:52,755 --> 00:56:55,155
<i>Born 1918.</i>

596
00:56:55,325 --> 00:56:57,350
<i>Buried in the rain.</i>

597
00:56:57,527 --> 00:56:59,392
<i>Murdered.</i>

598
00:56:59,562 --> 00:57:03,589
<i>Is that what happens to us?
No time for friends?</i>

599
00:57:04,534 --> 00:57:07,697
<i>Only our enemies leave roses.</i>

600
00:57:08,004 --> 00:57:10,905
<i>Violent lives ending violently.</i>

601
00:57:12,875 --> 00:57:17,938
<i>Blake understood.
Humans are savage in nature.</i>

602
00:57:18,114 --> 00:57:20,810
<i>No matter how much you try
to dress it up...</i>

603
00:57:20,984 --> 00:57:23,111
<i>...to disguise it...</i>

604
00:57:23,286 --> 00:57:26,414
<i>...Blake saw society's true face.</i>

605
00:57:26,589 --> 00:57:31,219
<i>Chose to be a parody of it. A joke.</i>

606
00:57:31,394 --> 00:57:33,055
<i>I heard joke once.</i>

607
00:57:34,230 --> 00:57:38,030
<i>Man goes to doctor, says he's depressed.</i>

608
00:57:38,201 --> 00:57:42,069
<i>Life seems harsh and cruel.</i>

609
00:57:42,238 --> 00:57:46,106
<i>Says he feels all alone
in threatening world.</i>

610
00:57:46,275 --> 00:57:49,073
<i>Doctor says treatment is simple.</i>

611
00:57:49,479 --> 00:57:53,916
<i>"The great clown Pagliacci is in town.
Go see him.</i>

612
00:57:54,083 --> 00:57:56,074
<i>That should pick you up. "</i>

613
00:57:56,586 --> 00:57:59,521
<i>Man bursts into tears.</i>

614
00:57:59,689 --> 00:58:04,023
<i>"But doctor, " he says. "I am Pagliacci. "</i>

615
00:58:06,029 --> 00:58:07,758
<i>Good joke.</i>

616
00:58:08,031 --> 00:58:09,931
<i>Everybody laugh.</i>

617
00:58:10,099 --> 00:58:12,260
<i>Roll on snare drum.</i>

618
00:58:12,769 --> 00:58:14,259
<i>Curtains.</i>

619
00:58:22,712 --> 00:58:24,976
What time do you have to be
at your interview?

620
00:58:25,148 --> 00:58:26,775
Don't worry.

621
00:58:27,417 --> 00:58:29,908
We've got plenty of time.

622
00:58:36,959 --> 00:58:39,154
Your finger's like licking a battery.

623
00:58:59,482 --> 00:59:02,246
God, Jon, stop. What are you doing?

624
00:59:02,418 --> 00:59:03,749
Please don't be upset.

625
00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:07,583
I always thought you liked this.

626
00:59:07,757 --> 00:59:09,156
No.

627
00:59:10,660 --> 00:59:13,629
I don't- No.

628
00:59:14,464 --> 00:59:17,297
I don't want that.

629
00:59:17,567 --> 00:59:20,730
I don't know
what stimulates you anymore.

630
00:59:22,872 --> 00:59:26,501
Look, I know you were just trying-

631
00:59:28,311 --> 00:59:30,779
Are you working in here
while we're in bed together?

632
00:59:30,947 --> 00:59:34,383
My work with Adrian
is at a criticaI stage right now.

633
00:59:34,851 --> 00:59:38,014
- I didn't think it was necessary to-
- To what?

634
00:59:38,187 --> 00:59:41,714
To what? To tell me which one of you
is giving me a pity fuck?

635
00:59:50,867 --> 00:59:53,301
My attention was completely focused
on you.

636
00:59:53,903 --> 00:59:56,167
If you think there's a problem
with my attitude...

637
00:59:56,339 --> 00:59:58,569
...I am prepared to discuss it.

638
01:00:00,343 --> 01:00:04,074
You know how everything in this world
fits together except people.

639
01:00:04,247 --> 01:00:08,707
What am I to you?
Another puzzle to be solved?

640
01:00:08,885 --> 01:00:12,582
Have your men stand back.
I'm teleporting the reactor to Karnak now.

641
01:00:13,422 --> 01:00:16,357
You're my only remaining link
to the world.

642
01:00:24,133 --> 01:00:26,727
I don't want that responsibility anymore.

643
01:00:32,608 --> 01:00:34,735
He's all yours.

644
01:00:40,783 --> 01:00:43,149
<i>Don't worry, Jon. She'll be back.</i>

645
01:00:44,620 --> 01:00:46,815
No, she won't.

646
01:01:00,903 --> 01:01:05,465
<i>He's been called
many things: Hero, weapon...</i>

647
01:01:05,975 --> 01:01:08,443
<i>...linchpin of our national security...</i>

648
01:01:08,611 --> 01:01:13,139
<i>...deterrent to nuclear war,
or a man to end worlds.</i>

649
01:01:13,482 --> 01:01:16,042
<i>Later tonight, Dr. Manhattan...</i>

650
01:01:16,219 --> 01:01:21,179
<i>...will answer my questions and yours
in an exclusive interview...</i>

651
01:01:21,357 --> 01:01:26,226
<i>...brought to you commercial-free
by Veidt Enterprises.</i>

652
01:01:41,077 --> 01:01:42,339
Who is it?

653
01:01:42,511 --> 01:01:44,479
It's Laurie.

654
01:01:55,358 --> 01:01:58,623
Sorry. I just had this new lock installed.

655
01:01:58,794 --> 01:02:01,262
I didn't know where else to go.

656
01:02:01,430 --> 01:02:04,593
Oh, it's okay. Come in.

657
01:02:12,041 --> 01:02:13,065
What's wrong?

658
01:02:14,377 --> 01:02:16,004
I left Jon.

659
01:02:16,712 --> 01:02:19,010
Oh, God.

660
01:02:19,482 --> 01:02:21,211
I'm so sorry.

661
01:02:21,384 --> 01:02:24,217
I don't know why I'm here. I just...

662
01:02:25,755 --> 01:02:28,223
I don't know anybody else.

663
01:02:29,058 --> 01:02:32,357
I don't know anybody
except for goddamn superheroes.

664
01:02:32,929 --> 01:02:34,590
That's okay.

665
01:02:34,764 --> 01:02:37,028
You probably just had an argument
or something.

666
01:02:37,199 --> 01:02:38,564
No, Dan.

667
01:02:39,101 --> 01:02:41,797
You don't know what it's been like
living with him.

668
01:02:41,971 --> 01:02:45,099
The way he looks at things now,
it's like he doesn't...

669
01:02:45,274 --> 01:02:47,742
...remember what they are.

670
01:02:48,077 --> 01:02:50,238
<i>It's like this world, this real world...</i>

671
01:02:50,413 --> 01:02:54,213
<i>...to him,
it's like walking through mist.</i>

672
01:02:54,383 --> 01:02:57,944
And people are just shadows.

673
01:02:59,522 --> 01:03:02,013
<i>Shadows in a fog.</i>

674
01:03:03,125 --> 01:03:06,492
<i>God, how did everything
get so tangled up?</i>

675
01:03:08,097 --> 01:03:10,088
I'm sorry, Dan.

676
01:03:10,833 --> 01:03:13,825
This is twice now
I've ruined your evening.

677
01:03:14,270 --> 01:03:17,262
Come on. I'm glad you came over.

678
01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:20,967
I was just gonna see Hollis
for our weekly beer session.

679
01:03:21,143 --> 01:03:23,134
You're more than welcome to join.

680
01:03:24,313 --> 01:03:27,612
In fact, I insist.

681
01:04:00,116 --> 01:04:02,914
Terrific. Dr. Manhattan arrives
and no one thinks to tell me.

682
01:04:03,085 --> 01:04:04,985
He just-
- We don't have time for makeup.

683
01:04:05,154 --> 01:04:07,452
That blue is too light for television.

684
01:04:10,226 --> 01:04:12,217
Is that dark enough?

685
01:04:14,030 --> 01:04:16,931
<i>Yeah, that's dark enough.</i>

686
01:04:17,099 --> 01:04:20,762
The weight of the world's on him,
but does he quit? No.

687
01:04:20,936 --> 01:04:23,200
News vendors always cope. They're the-

688
01:04:23,372 --> 01:04:26,933
Oh, God, here comes
that homeless guy again.

689
01:04:27,376 --> 01:04:30,174
I told you, this month's issue
still hasn't arrived yet.

690
01:04:30,346 --> 01:04:34,009
Why do you care about that right-wing rag?
Those bastards don't give a damn.

691
01:04:35,384 --> 01:04:37,682
Hold up. Here they come.

692
01:04:41,457 --> 01:04:43,982
- Seymour.
- Bernie, how's tricks?

693
01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:45,184
Fine, fine.

694
01:04:45,361 --> 01:04:48,660
See this guy behind me?
Been bugging me all week.

695
01:04:51,567 --> 01:04:55,765
Maybe we should get a cab.
These are bad neighborhoods.

696
01:04:55,938 --> 01:04:59,567
Yeah, well, I'm in a bad mood.

697
01:05:12,154 --> 01:05:14,418
GirI.
What we got here?

698
01:05:14,590 --> 01:05:17,457
Here's a list of Pentagon-approved
no-go areas.

699
01:05:17,626 --> 01:05:20,424
Afghanistan will obviously come up,
but just play it cooI...

700
01:05:20,596 --> 01:05:22,962
...and try not to get
into any tight corners.

701
01:05:23,132 --> 01:05:26,829
- a renowned nuclear physicist,
who, through a terrible accident...

702
01:05:27,002 --> 01:05:32,770
...was gifted with extraordinary powers,
capable of bending matter to his will.

703
01:05:32,942 --> 01:05:37,208
Today, the world knows him
as Dr. Manhattan.

704
01:05:37,379 --> 01:05:38,710
Welcome.

705
01:05:43,719 --> 01:05:44,947
Thank you.

706
01:05:45,121 --> 01:05:47,055
That's right.

707
01:05:53,596 --> 01:05:56,394
Ms. Black, you have the first question.

708
01:05:56,565 --> 01:05:57,998
Dr. Manhattan, as you know...

709
01:05:58,167 --> 01:06:00,863
...the Doomsday Clock
is a symbolic clock face...

710
01:06:01,036 --> 01:06:04,597
...analogizing humankind's proximity
to extinction...

711
01:06:04,940 --> 01:06:07,932
...midnight representing the threat
of nuclear war.

712
01:06:08,110 --> 01:06:11,273
As of now, it stands at four minutes
to midnight.

713
01:06:11,914 --> 01:06:14,382
Would you agree that we're that close
to annihilation?

714
01:06:14,783 --> 01:06:17,115
My father was a watchmaker.

715
01:06:17,953 --> 01:06:22,287
He abandoned it when Einstein discovered
that time is relative.

716
01:06:23,459 --> 01:06:25,450
I would only agree
that a symbolic clock...

717
01:06:25,628 --> 01:06:27,619
...is as nourishing to the intellect...

718
01:06:27,796 --> 01:06:31,061
...as a photograph of oxygen
to a drowning man.

719
01:06:33,402 --> 01:06:35,131
So you're saying there is no danger.

720
01:06:35,304 --> 01:06:39,297
<i>Even in a world without nuclear
weapons, there would still be danger.</i>

721
01:06:44,246 --> 01:06:47,147
And would you say, as so many claim...

722
01:06:47,316 --> 01:06:49,079
...that you are, in fact, a god...

723
01:06:49,251 --> 01:06:52,084
...given you see the past
and future simultaneously?

724
01:06:52,254 --> 01:06:54,552
I can only see my own past...

725
01:06:54,990 --> 01:06:58,892
<i>...my own future. I am not omniscient.</i>

726
01:06:59,495 --> 01:07:00,860
Doug Roth, your question?

727
01:07:01,030 --> 01:07:03,760
Speaking of your past, Dr. Manhattan...

728
01:07:03,933 --> 01:07:06,697
...do you remember a man
named Wally Weaver?

729
01:07:06,869 --> 01:07:12,000
Yes. We were both physicists together
at the Gila Flats Research Base.

730
01:07:12,508 --> 01:07:14,066
He died of cancer.

731
01:07:14,944 --> 01:07:17,208
- He was a good man.
How about Edgar Jacobi...

732
01:07:17,379 --> 01:07:20,280
<i>...also known as the supervillain Moloch?</i>

733
01:07:21,250 --> 01:07:25,346
<i>You encountered him several times
in the '60s: battles, conflicts.</i>

734
01:07:25,554 --> 01:07:28,022
<i>Did you know that he has cancer as well?</i>

735
01:07:28,958 --> 01:07:30,186
I wasn't told.

736
01:07:30,359 --> 01:07:32,589
<i>And what about
General Anthony Randolph?</i>

737
01:07:32,761 --> 01:07:36,197
<i>He was your handler when you first
started working for the government.</i>

738
01:07:36,599 --> 01:07:37,623
Cancer.

739
01:07:37,800 --> 01:07:40,462
You're suggesting I was the cause.

740
01:07:40,869 --> 01:07:43,861
<i>From where I'm standing,
it's starting to look pretty conclusive.</i>

741
01:07:44,039 --> 01:07:46,064
<i>Even if that's the case, it's irrelevant.</i>

742
01:07:46,242 --> 01:07:49,040
<i>A live human body
and a deceased human body...</i>

743
01:07:49,211 --> 01:07:51,304
<i>...have the same number of particles.</i>

744
01:07:54,049 --> 01:07:55,949
Structurally, there's no difference.

745
01:07:57,086 --> 01:07:59,350
All right. Let's settle down, please.

746
01:08:05,227 --> 01:08:06,455
What about Janey Slater?

747
01:08:07,229 --> 01:08:09,561
You think it makes a difference to her?

748
01:08:10,633 --> 01:08:11,964
Janey?

749
01:08:12,301 --> 01:08:13,859
Your ex-girlfriend?

750
01:08:14,036 --> 01:08:17,665
She was a physicist too.
You saw each other for 11 years.

751
01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:19,364
Doug, one question at a time.

752
01:08:19,541 --> 01:08:22,908
She has cancer as well.
Doctors have given her six months.

753
01:08:23,078 --> 01:08:24,909
Isn't that right, Miss Slater?

754
01:08:40,429 --> 01:08:42,226
You were the world to me, Jon.

755
01:08:42,831 --> 01:08:45,061
You were my whole life.

756
01:08:46,001 --> 01:08:48,595
Do you remember how many times
you said you loved me?

757
01:08:48,771 --> 01:08:50,466
Janey, I wasn't told.

758
01:08:50,939 --> 01:08:56,309
I stuck by you after the accident.
I gave you everything.

759
01:09:01,350 --> 01:09:03,011
This is how you repay me?

760
01:09:03,452 --> 01:09:08,355
- Janey, I wasn't told. I didn't know.
- Damn you, Jon. Goddamn you.

761
01:09:08,524 --> 01:09:10,515
Janey, wait.

762
01:09:11,927 --> 01:09:14,361
- That's it. This interview is over.
Get up there.

763
01:09:14,530 --> 01:09:16,896
Get those cameras off.
Everybody back off.

764
01:09:17,066 --> 01:09:20,763
Everybody back off.
I need some backup here. Leave him alone.

765
01:09:20,936 --> 01:09:27,034
Please, if everyone
would just go away...

766
01:09:27,209 --> 01:09:30,110
...and leave me alone...

767
01:09:30,279 --> 01:09:31,678
Do you care to comment?

768
01:09:31,847 --> 01:09:34,873
I said, leave me alone!

769
01:10:00,509 --> 01:10:02,409
Jesus.

770
01:10:03,512 --> 01:10:05,104
Us...

771
01:10:06,014 --> 01:10:07,845
...getting mugged.

772
01:10:10,185 --> 01:10:11,777
Let's go.

773
01:10:17,526 --> 01:10:19,323
I'm shaking.

774
01:10:23,532 --> 01:10:25,295
You know what?

775
01:10:25,667 --> 01:10:29,159
I'm wiped. I'm just gonna call it a night.

776
01:10:29,338 --> 01:10:32,569
Oh, are you sure you don't wanna
come by Hollis' with me...

777
01:10:32,741 --> 01:10:34,971
...and shake off the adrenaline?

778
01:10:35,778 --> 01:10:38,906
I think I've had enough hero stuff
for one night.

779
01:10:40,048 --> 01:10:42,414
It helped having you listen.

780
01:10:42,718 --> 01:10:44,447
Any time.

781
01:10:45,154 --> 01:10:47,054
Take care, Dan.

782
01:10:47,856 --> 01:10:50,154
It's a rough world out there.

783
01:10:51,627 --> 01:10:52,821
Be seeing you.

784
01:10:57,166 --> 01:10:58,292
You're late.

785
01:10:58,467 --> 01:11:01,561
Ah, I know. I know.
You won't believe what happened.

786
01:11:01,737 --> 01:11:04,535
Dr. Manhattan just lost it on live TV.

787
01:11:04,706 --> 01:11:06,401
Wait, what?

788
01:11:11,980 --> 01:11:13,914
I was just with Laurie. She doesn't know.

789
01:11:14,716 --> 01:11:18,311
She's gonna know soon enough.
The whole world will know.

790
01:11:18,487 --> 01:11:21,217
<i>I said, leave me alone!</i>

791
01:11:31,066 --> 01:11:33,261
<i>I am looking at the stars.</i>

792
01:11:33,769 --> 01:11:35,760
<i>They're so far away...</i>

793
01:11:36,205 --> 01:11:38,867
<i>...and their light takes so long
to reach us...</i>

794
01:11:41,610 --> 01:11:45,808
<i>...all we ever see of stars
are their old photographs.</i>

795
01:11:49,418 --> 01:11:53,252
<i>It is July, 1959, and I am in love.</i>

796
01:11:54,089 --> 01:11:55,750
That's great.

797
01:11:55,924 --> 01:11:57,551
- You can pick it up tomorrow.
- Okay.

798
01:11:57,726 --> 01:11:59,455
- Seventy-five cents.
- Okay, thank you.

799
01:11:59,628 --> 01:12:00,652
Thank you.

800
01:12:00,829 --> 01:12:05,027
Gosh, Jon, I wish he gave us a little notice.
I'm sure I made a face.

801
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:10,194
Oh, no, no.
I'm sure that you'll look beautifuI.

802
01:12:14,109 --> 01:12:16,441
<i>Her name is Janey Slater.</i>

803
01:12:17,279 --> 01:12:19,941
<i>She is a physicist, like me.</i>

804
01:12:21,216 --> 01:12:22,979
<i>I am 30 years old.</i>

805
01:12:27,689 --> 01:12:31,625
<i>We were introduced by a good friend
of mine from college, Wally Weaver.</i>

806
01:12:35,797 --> 01:12:38,357
<i>It is February 12th, 1981.</i>

807
01:12:38,534 --> 01:12:42,300
<i>Wally dies of cancer,
of which they now say I am the cause.</i>

808
01:12:59,288 --> 01:13:02,689
<i>That night, Janey and I make love
for the first time.</i>

809
01:13:10,532 --> 01:13:13,524
<i>A month from now,
the accident awaits me.</i>

810
01:13:21,009 --> 01:13:24,501
Oh, I'll catch up with you guys.
I think I left my watch inside.

811
01:13:25,180 --> 01:13:27,410
Hey. Let's just wait a second.

812
01:13:30,819 --> 01:13:35,222
<i>I cross the room to the
Intrinsic Field Center. I find my watch.</i>

813
01:13:41,930 --> 01:13:43,090
<i>When I get to the door...</i>

814
01:13:44,866 --> 01:13:46,060
<i>...Wally is turning white.</i>

815
01:13:46,234 --> 01:13:50,295
The program's locked in.
We can't override the time lock.

816
01:13:51,673 --> 01:13:53,607
<i>I am terrified.</i>

817
01:13:53,775 --> 01:13:54,901
Jon?

818
01:14:00,148 --> 01:14:01,911
I'm sorry, Jon...

819
01:14:03,852 --> 01:14:05,410
...but I can't-

820
01:14:07,689 --> 01:14:09,213
Janey, don't leave me!

821
01:14:09,758 --> 01:14:11,749
Don't leave me!

822
01:14:43,792 --> 01:14:48,559
<i>It is May 12th, 1959,
when I'm introduced to Janey.</i>

823
01:14:48,997 --> 01:14:51,192
<i>She buys me a beer...</i>

824
01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:54,233
<i>...the first time a woman
has done this for me.</i>

825
01:14:55,604 --> 01:14:59,438
<i>As she passes me the cold,
perspiring glass...</i>

826
01:15:00,075 --> 01:15:01,303
<i>...our fingers touch.</i>

827
01:15:14,189 --> 01:15:16,350
Yes, Jon, good.

828
01:15:16,525 --> 01:15:22,020
Now it's just a question of reassembling
the components in the correct sequence.

829
01:15:25,867 --> 01:15:26,959
<i>I feel fear...</i>

830
01:15:28,203 --> 01:15:30,330
<i>...for the last time.</i>

831
01:15:47,155 --> 01:15:49,589
<i>A token funeral is held.</i>

832
01:15:49,758 --> 01:15:51,919
<i>There is nothing to bury.</i>

833
01:15:52,094 --> 01:15:54,688
<i>Janey frames the snapshot.</i>

834
01:15:54,896 --> 01:15:58,024
<i>It's the only photograph of me
anyone has.</i>

835
01:15:59,334 --> 01:16:04,203
<i>A circulatory system is seen
by the perimeter fence.</i>

836
01:16:04,606 --> 01:16:06,073
<i>A few days later...</i>

837
01:16:06,241 --> 01:16:09,472
<i>...a partially muscled skeleton
stands in a hallway...</i>

838
01:16:09,644 --> 01:16:13,478
<i>...and screams for a moment
before vanishing.</i>

839
01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:40,865
Oh, God.

840
01:16:41,042 --> 01:16:42,566
Jon?

841
01:16:43,612 --> 01:16:45,443
Is that you?

842
01:16:46,114 --> 01:16:49,140
Nations around the world
reeling from this morning's announcement...

843
01:16:49,317 --> 01:16:51,945
...possibly the most significant event
in recent history.

844
01:16:52,120 --> 01:16:56,181
We repeat, the superman exists,
and he is American.

845
01:17:02,564 --> 01:17:05,158
<i>They call me Dr. Manhattan.</i>

846
01:17:07,502 --> 01:17:09,436
<i>They explain the name
has been chosen...</i>

847
01:17:09,604 --> 01:17:13,836
<i>...for the ominous associations
it will raise in America's enemies.</i>

848
01:17:18,446 --> 01:17:21,779
<i>The marketing boys say I need a logo.</i>

849
01:17:30,592 --> 01:17:32,958
<i>If I'm to have a symbol...</i>

850
01:17:34,930 --> 01:17:37,558
<i>...it shall be one I respect.</i>

851
01:17:47,609 --> 01:17:50,635
<i>They are shaping me
into something gaudy...</i>

852
01:17:51,713 --> 01:17:53,840
<i>...something lethal.</i>

853
01:17:58,653 --> 01:18:01,178
<i>In January, 1971...</i>

854
01:18:01,356 --> 01:18:05,315
<i>...President Nixon asks me to intervene
in Vietnam...</i>

855
01:18:05,493 --> 01:18:08,257
<i>...something that his predecessors
would not ask.</i>

856
01:18:09,564 --> 01:18:12,397
<i>A week later, the conflict ends.</i>

857
01:18:12,567 --> 01:18:17,004
<i>Some of the Vietcong forces
wanna surrender to me personally.</i>

858
01:18:20,442 --> 01:18:24,037
<i>Hollis Mason, a retired costume hero,
writes a book.</i>

859
01:18:24,212 --> 01:18:29,047
<i>In it, he calls my arrival
the dawn of the superhero.</i>

860
01:18:29,885 --> 01:18:32,615
<i>I am not sure if I know what that means.</i>

861
01:18:49,104 --> 01:18:52,198
<i>You see, at the time, I was misquoted.</i>

862
01:18:52,474 --> 01:18:55,534
I never said, "The superman exists
and he is American. "

863
01:18:55,710 --> 01:19:01,671
What I said was, "God exists,
and he is American. "

864
01:19:02,183 --> 01:19:04,651
Now, if you begin to feeI an intense...

865
01:19:04,819 --> 01:19:08,721
...and crushing feeling of religious terror
at the concept...

866
01:19:09,157 --> 01:19:11,182
...don't be alarmed.

867
01:19:11,826 --> 01:19:15,853
That indicates only
that you are still sane.

868
01:19:18,333 --> 01:19:21,461
<i>It is Christmas, 1963.</i>

869
01:19:21,803 --> 01:19:25,500
<i>Janey tells me she is afraid, and worried.</i>

870
01:19:26,141 --> 01:19:28,939
<i>She says I am like a god now.</i>

871
01:19:29,644 --> 01:19:31,805
<i>I tell her I don't think there is a God.</i>

872
01:19:31,980 --> 01:19:34,608
And if there is, I'm nothing like him.

873
01:19:39,387 --> 01:19:41,821
<i>I tell her I still want her...</i>

874
01:19:42,590 --> 01:19:44,581
<i>...and that I always will.</i>

875
01:19:47,662 --> 01:19:52,326
<i>As I lie to her, it is September 4th, 1970.</i>

876
01:19:53,168 --> 01:19:56,035
<i>I am in a room
full of people wearing disguises.</i>

877
01:19:57,505 --> 01:20:01,771
<i>A very young girl looks at me and smiles.</i>

878
01:20:03,645 --> 01:20:05,636
<i>She's beautiful.</i>

879
01:20:09,184 --> 01:20:15,089
<i>After each long kiss, she plants a smaller,
gentler one upon my lips...</i>

880
01:20:15,256 --> 01:20:16,814
<i>...like a signature.</i>

881
01:20:18,193 --> 01:20:21,356
<i>Janey accuses me of chasing jailbait.</i>

882
01:20:21,863 --> 01:20:27,130
<i>She bursts into angry tears,
asking if it's because she's getting older.</i>

883
01:20:27,302 --> 01:20:29,133
<i>It's true.</i>

884
01:20:31,206 --> 01:20:34,232
<i>She's aging more noticeably every day...</i>

885
01:20:40,815 --> 01:20:43,648
<i>...while I am standing still.</i>

886
01:20:44,586 --> 01:20:47,248
<i>I prefer the stillness here.</i>

887
01:20:48,223 --> 01:20:50,316
<i>I am tired of Earth.</i>

888
01:20:50,492 --> 01:20:52,153
<i>These people.</i>

889
01:20:52,727 --> 01:20:56,424
<i>I'm tired of being caught
in the tangle of their lives.</i>

890
01:21:19,254 --> 01:21:22,587
<i>They claim their labors
are to build a heaven...</i>

891
01:21:23,158 --> 01:21:26,616
<i>...yet their heaven is populated
with horrors.</i>

892
01:21:27,095 --> 01:21:29,757
<i>Perhaps the world is not made.</i>

893
01:21:30,765 --> 01:21:32,756
<i>Perhaps nothing is made.</i>

894
01:21:33,601 --> 01:21:37,162
<i>A clock without a craftsman.</i>

895
01:21:38,106 --> 01:21:40,097
<i>It's too late.</i>

896
01:21:40,542 --> 01:21:42,442
<i>Always has been...</i>

897
01:21:43,078 --> 01:21:45,273
<i>...always will be...</i>

898
01:21:45,847 --> 01:21:47,474
<i>...too late.</i>

899
01:21:48,950 --> 01:21:51,646
And you have no idea
where he would've gone.

900
01:21:51,820 --> 01:21:53,117
How would I know?

901
01:21:53,288 --> 01:21:56,018
Probably on the other side
of the world studying molecules.

902
01:21:56,191 --> 01:21:58,716
Our satellites have done
a sweep of the planet.

903
01:21:58,893 --> 01:22:01,191
There's no trace of his
energy signature anywhere.

904
01:22:01,362 --> 01:22:02,659
Really?

905
01:22:02,831 --> 01:22:06,232
Miss Jupiter, did you and
Dr. Manhattan have a fight today?

906
01:22:06,401 --> 01:22:07,891
None of your fucking business.

907
01:22:08,069 --> 01:22:11,402
It is when you're on government payroll
and you're not doing your job.

908
01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:16,040
That's as close to the word "whore"
as you're gonna get with me, Agent Forbes.

909
01:22:24,185 --> 01:22:25,675
Smoke?

910
01:22:26,221 --> 01:22:28,451
My apologies, Miss Jupiter.

911
01:22:28,623 --> 01:22:31,990
You know how important Dr. Manhattan
is to our nationaI security.

912
01:22:32,894 --> 01:22:34,828
You can imagine our concern.

913
01:22:34,996 --> 01:22:36,520
I can only imagine.

914
01:22:42,770 --> 01:22:46,763
Ain't nothing gonna matter once
those nukes start flying. We'll all be dust.

915
01:22:47,208 --> 01:22:49,768
Then Ozymandias here...

916
01:22:50,211 --> 01:22:52,975
...will be the smartest man
on the cinder.

917
01:23:11,166 --> 01:23:14,260
LaureI? LaureI Jane?

918
01:23:15,803 --> 01:23:17,600
You're Sally Jupiter's kid.

919
01:23:18,506 --> 01:23:20,736
You're the Comedian, right?

920
01:23:20,942 --> 01:23:22,409
You were pretty cooI in there.

921
01:23:23,211 --> 01:23:26,942
You know, your mom, she was one
of the all-time champion beauties.

922
01:23:28,116 --> 01:23:32,450
You got her eyes, you know.
You even have that same funny little mole.

923
01:23:32,921 --> 01:23:34,821
Take your hands off her.

924
01:23:34,989 --> 01:23:37,082
Hey, doll. Long time no see.

925
01:23:37,258 --> 01:23:40,853
Not long enough in my book, Eddie.
Get in the car.

926
01:23:42,430 --> 01:23:44,421
Are there no depths you won't sink to?

927
01:23:44,599 --> 01:23:48,433
Jesus Christ, Sally.
Can't a guy talk to his...

928
01:23:49,137 --> 01:23:50,832
...you know, old friend's daughter?

929
01:23:51,005 --> 01:23:53,132
I mean, what the hell do you think I am?

930
01:23:53,308 --> 01:23:54,969
We found him!

931
01:23:58,012 --> 01:24:00,105
- We found him.
Where is he?

932
01:24:03,518 --> 01:24:04,849
Mars.

933
01:24:10,892 --> 01:24:12,883
Mr. President...

934
01:24:13,061 --> 01:24:17,691
...the Soviets have moved their tanks
just short of the Afghan border.

935
01:24:19,267 --> 01:24:20,495
They are testing us...

936
01:24:20,668 --> 01:24:25,071
...to see if we manufactured
Dr. Manhattan's disappearance...

937
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:28,334
...to coax a move out of them.

938
01:24:28,509 --> 01:24:32,468
If they realize it's not a hoax,
they'll probably start with air strikes.

939
01:24:32,647 --> 01:24:36,708
If they do, they'll have Afghanistan
under controI in a matter of days.

940
01:24:37,118 --> 01:24:41,817
A watchdog group of nuclear scientists
has moved the Doomsday Clock...

941
01:24:41,990 --> 01:24:44,220
...to two minutes untiI midnight.

942
01:24:44,392 --> 01:24:47,555
Get this shit off the screen.

943
01:24:47,729 --> 01:24:50,755
Who are these assholes to say
when doomsday approaches?

944
01:24:50,932 --> 01:24:53,400
I say when doomsday is approaching.

945
01:24:59,073 --> 01:25:00,665
Now, then.

946
01:25:01,709 --> 01:25:04,200
What about the rest
of the Warsaw Pact countries?

947
01:25:04,379 --> 01:25:08,577
Czechoslovakia, Poland and East Germany
have mobilized their forces.

948
01:25:08,750 --> 01:25:11,913
But no movement yet.
They're playing a wait-and-see.

949
01:25:12,086 --> 01:25:13,713
Letting the Russians take the lead.

950
01:25:18,059 --> 01:25:21,256
Bold moves, Henry.
That's what's needed right now.

951
01:25:21,429 --> 01:25:24,193
We can't let these fuckers
think we're weak.

952
01:25:24,365 --> 01:25:28,631
Yes. They must fear the madman
Richard Nixon.

953
01:25:33,708 --> 01:25:37,166
How soon can we be ready
for a preemptive strike?

954
01:25:38,346 --> 01:25:39,370
Two days.

955
01:25:39,781 --> 01:25:43,649
We have a 54 percent chance
of wiping out the entire U.S.S.R...

956
01:25:43,818 --> 01:25:45,877
...before they get their missiles airborne.

957
01:25:47,488 --> 01:25:49,080
What would our losses be?

958
01:25:49,257 --> 01:25:51,122
Assuming conservative projections...

959
01:25:51,292 --> 01:25:54,659
...of how many Soviet warheads
are destroyed beforehand...

960
01:25:54,829 --> 01:25:56,694
...we'll lose all of the East Coast.

961
01:25:57,131 --> 01:25:58,655
The last gasp...

962
01:25:59,534 --> 01:26:02,002
...of the Harvard establishment.

963
01:26:02,437 --> 01:26:05,702
Let's see them think their way
out of fission.

964
01:26:05,873 --> 01:26:09,468
With anticipated wind patterns,
the fallout drift would head south.

965
01:26:09,644 --> 01:26:11,839
Mexico would catch the worst of it.

966
01:26:12,013 --> 01:26:14,106
Most of the farm belt
might remain unaffected.

967
01:26:14,282 --> 01:26:15,977
Not so bad...

968
01:26:16,784 --> 01:26:18,911
...all things considered.

969
01:26:21,489 --> 01:26:23,320
Mr. President...

970
01:26:23,491 --> 01:26:25,118
...what would you like to do?

971
01:26:33,468 --> 01:26:35,766
Take us to DEFCON two.

972
01:26:35,937 --> 01:26:37,928
Begin fueling the bombers.

973
01:26:38,539 --> 01:26:41,440
Dr. Manhattan has two days.

974
01:26:41,876 --> 01:26:43,673
After that...

975
01:26:43,845 --> 01:26:47,474
...humanity is in the hands
of a higher authority than mine.

976
01:26:48,082 --> 01:26:51,051
Let's just hope he's on our side.

977
01:26:52,286 --> 01:26:54,379
There must be a way to reach him.
Excuse me.

978
01:26:54,555 --> 01:26:56,216
Radio transmission, space shuttles-

979
01:26:56,391 --> 01:26:57,619
Excuse me.
What?

980
01:26:57,792 --> 01:27:00,090
I need to use the restroom.

981
01:27:21,679 --> 01:27:23,271
Don't you understand?

982
01:27:23,448 --> 01:27:26,076
The only thing that can
bring Jon back is Jon.

983
01:27:26,250 --> 01:27:28,218
If he wants to find me, he will.

984
01:27:28,386 --> 01:27:30,854
I've been a prisoner in my life
long enough.

985
01:27:31,222 --> 01:27:32,917
Without Dr. Manhattan around...

986
01:27:33,091 --> 01:27:35,992
...to bully the Russians into peace,
Mr. Veidt...

987
01:27:36,160 --> 01:27:40,563
...people are going to need good,
old-fashioned energy to rely on.

988
01:27:40,732 --> 01:27:42,393
You can understand.

989
01:27:42,567 --> 01:27:47,664
The world can't just quit on oiI
and nuclear power cold turkey.

990
01:27:47,839 --> 01:27:50,069
You'll dismantle
our entire economy overnight.

991
01:27:50,241 --> 01:27:53,005
You're right, Lee. And why free energy?

992
01:27:53,177 --> 01:27:56,078
Well, "free" is just another word
for "socialist. "

993
01:27:56,247 --> 01:27:58,215
We might have to
make a public inquiry...

994
01:27:58,383 --> 01:28:01,648
...into any past communist affiliations
you might have had.

995
01:28:02,053 --> 01:28:04,920
Mr. lacocca, gentlemen...

996
01:28:06,090 --> 01:28:08,320
...I respect your position...

997
01:28:08,493 --> 01:28:12,395
...and what you've accomplished
as captains of industry. I do.

998
01:28:12,797 --> 01:28:15,288
You wanna know my past? Hm?

999
01:28:16,100 --> 01:28:18,830
Okay. Happily.

1000
01:28:19,003 --> 01:28:22,461
It's a matter of public record that by 17,
both my parents were dead...

1001
01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:24,471
...leaving me alone.

1002
01:28:25,476 --> 01:28:28,843
I guess you could say
I've always been alone.

1003
01:28:29,013 --> 01:28:33,916
They say I'm the smartest man in the world,
but the truth is I've often felt stupid...

1004
01:28:34,085 --> 01:28:37,577
...at being unable to relate to anyone.

1005
01:28:37,755 --> 01:28:41,156
Well, anyone living, that is.

1006
01:28:41,325 --> 01:28:43,293
The only person
with whom I felt kinship...

1007
01:28:43,461 --> 01:28:46,589
...died 300 years
before the birth of Christ.

1008
01:28:46,764 --> 01:28:52,134
Alexander of Macedonia,
or Alexander the Great, as you know him.

1009
01:28:52,303 --> 01:28:55,329
His vision of a united world was...

1010
01:28:58,643 --> 01:29:00,338
Well, it was unprecedented.

1011
01:29:00,511 --> 01:29:02,206
I wanted...

1012
01:29:02,380 --> 01:29:04,678
...needed to match
his accomplishments...

1013
01:29:04,849 --> 01:29:08,046
...so I resolved to apply antiquity's
teachings to our world today.

1014
01:29:08,219 --> 01:29:11,711
And so began my path to conquest.

1015
01:29:11,889 --> 01:29:15,120
Conquest not of men...

1016
01:29:15,293 --> 01:29:18,126
...but of the evils that beset them.

1017
01:29:18,362 --> 01:29:23,265
FossiI fuels, oiI, nuclear power...

1018
01:29:23,434 --> 01:29:26,267
...are like a drug, and you,
along with foreign interests...

1019
01:29:26,437 --> 01:29:28,064
- ... are the pushers.
- Now, listen.

1020
01:29:28,639 --> 01:29:30,266
No.

1021
01:29:32,610 --> 01:29:34,407
You listen.

1022
01:29:35,646 --> 01:29:38,137
The world will survive...

1023
01:29:38,349 --> 01:29:41,785
...and it deserves more
than you've been able to provide.

1024
01:29:41,953 --> 01:29:44,547
So let's cut to it, shall we?

1025
01:29:44,822 --> 01:29:47,290
I'm worth more
than all of your corporations combined.

1026
01:29:47,458 --> 01:29:51,053
I could buy and sell you, something
you should factor into your decision...

1027
01:29:51,229 --> 01:29:57,532
...should you choose
to make our disagreement public.

1028
01:29:59,003 --> 01:30:01,437
I think you know the way out.

1029
01:30:03,174 --> 01:30:04,903
Gentlemen.

1030
01:30:07,411 --> 01:30:10,903
The toy people wanna talk to you about
new villains for the Ozymandias line.

1031
01:30:11,082 --> 01:30:14,540
- Seems all the old villains are dead.
- Mr. Veidt?

1032
01:30:14,719 --> 01:30:18,280
- I think I have some ideas.
- Mr. Veidt?

1033
01:30:18,456 --> 01:30:21,254
I think we got off on the wrong foot.

1034
01:30:59,986 --> 01:31:01,681
He's got a poison capsule.

1035
01:31:02,355 --> 01:31:06,815
Don't bite down, you son of a bitch.
Who sent you? I want a name.

1036
01:31:06,993 --> 01:31:08,085
Give me a name!

1037
01:31:20,206 --> 01:31:21,503
<i>Suicide pill.</i>

1038
01:31:22,609 --> 01:31:25,544
Potassium cyanide.
Guy was dead before he hit the ground.

1039
01:31:25,712 --> 01:31:27,543
Thanks, hon.

1040
01:31:28,048 --> 01:31:30,073
Then Rorschach was right.

1041
01:31:30,250 --> 01:31:32,411
This wasn't some lone nut.

1042
01:31:32,586 --> 01:31:36,716
It's an organization:
Well-funded, well-equipped.

1043
01:31:37,691 --> 01:31:39,625
But who'd wanna kill us now?

1044
01:31:40,927 --> 01:31:44,055
I don't know, but it's not safe out here.

1045
01:31:49,603 --> 01:31:51,571
So no word from Jon?

1046
01:31:52,539 --> 01:31:54,166
No.

1047
01:31:54,541 --> 01:31:56,441
Well, listen...

1048
01:31:56,943 --> 01:31:58,638
...why don't you come stay with me?

1049
01:31:59,980 --> 01:32:02,972
Oh, no.
That's sweet, but I wouldn't wanna impose.

1050
01:32:03,450 --> 01:32:06,817
Oh, no. No.
Think of it as doing me a favor.

1051
01:32:08,655 --> 01:32:10,987
I wouldn't have to worry about you
being out there.

1052
01:32:14,394 --> 01:32:15,622
Okay.

1053
01:32:18,698 --> 01:32:24,136
<i>Rorschach's journal, October 21 st, 1985.</i>

1054
01:32:24,304 --> 01:32:28,400
<i>On 43rd and 7th, saw Dreiberg
and Jupiter leaving diner.</i>

1055
01:32:29,075 --> 01:32:31,737
<i>They didn't know me without my mask.</i>

1056
01:32:32,579 --> 01:32:34,240
<i>An affair?</i>

1057
01:32:34,414 --> 01:32:38,350
<i>Did she break Manhattan's heart
to engineer his exile...</i>

1058
01:32:38,518 --> 01:32:40,452
<i>...make room for Dreiberg?</i>

1059
01:32:40,620 --> 01:32:44,078
<i>Does Manhattan even have a heart
to break?</i>

1060
01:32:45,325 --> 01:32:48,123
<i>The alley was cold, deserted.</i>

1061
01:32:48,294 --> 01:32:52,890
<i>My things were where I left them,
waiting for me.</i>

1062
01:32:53,066 --> 01:32:57,435
<i>My coat, my shoes, my spotless gloves.</i>

1063
01:32:58,972 --> 01:33:00,906
<i>My face.</i>

1064
01:33:01,141 --> 01:33:05,077
<i>Putting them on,
I abandoned my disguise...</i>

1065
01:33:05,245 --> 01:33:07,372
<i>...became myself.</i>

1066
01:33:07,881 --> 01:33:10,975
<i>Free from fear or weakness...</i>

1067
01:33:11,151 --> 01:33:12,243
<i>...or lust.</i>

1068
01:33:13,820 --> 01:33:15,685
<i>Down alley...</i>

1069
01:33:15,855 --> 01:33:17,720
<i>...heard woman scream.</i>

1070
01:33:17,891 --> 01:33:21,884
<i>First bubbling note
of city's evening chorus.</i>

1071
01:33:22,062 --> 01:33:23,859
<i>Attempted rape.</i>

1072
01:33:24,030 --> 01:33:25,190
<i>Mugging.</i>

1073
01:33:25,365 --> 01:33:26,832
<i>Both.</i>

1074
01:33:28,334 --> 01:33:30,029
<i>The man turned...</i>

1075
01:33:30,203 --> 01:33:33,331
<i>...and there was something
rewarding in his eyes.</i>

1076
01:33:34,307 --> 01:33:36,775
<i>Sometimes the night is generous to me.</i>

1077
01:33:42,882 --> 01:33:47,216
<i>Veidt's assassin was a local lowlife
named Roy Chess.</i>

1078
01:33:47,787 --> 01:33:50,551
<i>At his apartment, I found clues.</i>

1079
01:33:51,758 --> 01:33:54,818
<i>Seems he worked
at Pyramid Transnational.</i>

1080
01:33:54,994 --> 01:33:57,554
<i>I've seen the logo before...</i>

1081
01:33:57,964 --> 01:34:00,023
<i>...at Moloch's.</i>

1082
01:34:30,396 --> 01:34:33,331
Someone tried to shoot
the world's smartest man today, Moloch.

1083
01:34:34,167 --> 01:34:36,965
Guy worked for Pyramid Transnational.

1084
01:34:37,137 --> 01:34:39,264
More than a just delivery service,
I take it.

1085
01:34:39,439 --> 01:34:43,375
Last time I was here, I saw a pension check
written from the same company.

1086
01:34:43,543 --> 01:34:47,035
I'm guessing it's a front set up
by whoever wants us masks dead.

1087
01:34:47,213 --> 01:34:50,808
Now, no more lies, Moloch.
Who runs Pyramid?

1088
01:34:55,688 --> 01:34:57,315
Rorschach.

1089
01:34:57,490 --> 01:34:59,856
This is the police.
We know you're in there.

1090
01:35:00,026 --> 01:35:01,891
No. No!

1091
01:35:02,061 --> 01:35:05,189
If there's anybody in there with you,
send them out unharmed.

1092
01:35:05,365 --> 01:35:08,300
No. No, no, no!

1093
01:35:08,468 --> 01:35:12,871
Framed. Walked right into it.
Stupid, stupid, stupid!

1094
01:35:13,039 --> 01:35:14,666
Never, never surrender.

1095
01:35:14,841 --> 01:35:17,833
All right.
I hope you're ready, hero.

1096
01:35:18,011 --> 01:35:19,035
When you are.

1097
01:35:41,734 --> 01:35:42,758
One...

1098
01:35:47,774 --> 01:35:48,832
...two...

1099
01:35:52,846 --> 01:35:53,904
...three.

1100
01:36:45,899 --> 01:36:47,662
Come on.

1101
01:36:58,478 --> 01:36:59,911
Son of a bitch.

1102
01:37:00,880 --> 01:37:03,280
- Christ, he stinks.
- Get that mask off him.

1103
01:37:03,449 --> 01:37:06,282
- I got it.
- No. No!

1104
01:37:06,452 --> 01:37:09,148
My face! Give me back my face!

1105
01:37:09,989 --> 01:37:12,617
<i>The masked vigilante Rorschach
was apprehended...</i>

1106
01:37:12,792 --> 01:37:16,626
<i>...and identified
as walter Kovacs, a 35-year-old white male.</i>

1107
01:37:16,796 --> 01:37:19,856
<i>Little's known about Kovacs,
but he was charged with the murder...</i>

1108
01:37:20,033 --> 01:37:23,867
<i>...of Edgar Jacobi, found shot in the head
in his home in the Bronx.</i>

1109
01:37:24,037 --> 01:37:27,063
<i>Police officers were injured
and Jacobi's home was set ablaze...</i>

1110
01:37:27,240 --> 01:37:29,800
<i>...during the violent course
of the capture.</i>

1111
01:37:33,613 --> 01:37:34,910
Rorschach!

1112
01:37:35,081 --> 01:37:38,812
I'm gonna fuck you
like I fucked your mother!

1113
01:37:45,458 --> 01:37:48,393
Come on out, Rorschach!

1114
01:37:48,561 --> 01:37:50,791
<i>Walter Kovacs.</i>

1115
01:37:50,964 --> 01:37:53,831
Is that your name? Walter?

1116
01:37:54,000 --> 01:37:58,061
Well, let me explain
your situation here, Walter.

1117
01:37:58,237 --> 01:37:59,795
You cooperate with me...

1118
01:37:59,973 --> 01:38:04,467
...and I may be able to convince them
that you should be treated medically.

1119
01:38:04,644 --> 01:38:08,205
In a hospital. I believe
that would be good for you.

1120
01:38:08,381 --> 01:38:14,411
But the authorities wanna put you
with the general population.

1121
01:38:15,288 --> 01:38:18,348
- Prison's a prison.
- Uh-huh. Yes.

1122
01:38:18,958 --> 01:38:22,394
But the difference is, down there...

1123
01:38:22,962 --> 01:38:24,327
...you'd be eaten alive.

1124
01:38:25,298 --> 01:38:29,530
You're responsible for a lot of them
being in prison here, Walter.

1125
01:38:32,605 --> 01:38:34,072
Tell me what you see.

1126
01:38:39,245 --> 01:38:40,906
A pretty butterfly.

1127
01:38:44,717 --> 01:38:46,548
What about now? What do you see here?

1128
01:38:51,657 --> 01:38:52,715
Mom?

1129
01:38:53,092 --> 01:38:54,457
Is he hurting you?

1130
01:38:54,627 --> 01:38:57,494
You got a fucking kid in here.
I get that at home.

1131
01:38:57,663 --> 01:39:01,190
Bastard.
I should have had that abortion.

1132
01:39:10,843 --> 01:39:12,777
Some nice flowers.

1133
01:39:18,484 --> 01:39:20,145
<i>I heard this guy's mom's a whore.</i>

1134
01:39:22,455 --> 01:39:25,185
Did you catch any diseases from her?

1135
01:39:25,358 --> 01:39:30,159
Huh? Whoreson. Listen to me, retard.

1136
01:39:31,464 --> 01:39:34,695
Hey, you think she'd suck my dick
for a dollar?

1137
01:39:53,319 --> 01:39:54,445
Clouds.

1138
01:39:59,392 --> 01:40:02,122
Tell me about Rorschach.
Will you do that, Walter?

1139
01:40:02,295 --> 01:40:05,822
You keep calling me Walter.
I don't like you.

1140
01:40:06,899 --> 01:40:11,097
You don't like me.
All right, why is that, exactly?

1141
01:40:11,270 --> 01:40:12,635
You're fat.

1142
01:40:13,239 --> 01:40:16,367
Wealthy. Liberal sensibilities.

1143
01:40:16,542 --> 01:40:18,533
What you call compassion.

1144
01:40:18,711 --> 01:40:21,009
Wanting to protect
and understand the guilty.

1145
01:40:21,180 --> 01:40:25,082
This rotting society,
what it calls rehabilitation.

1146
01:40:25,251 --> 01:40:26,718
Nothing short of compromise.

1147
01:40:26,886 --> 01:40:29,446
Is it a compromise
to want to make you well?

1148
01:40:29,622 --> 01:40:33,854
There are other men in here with behavior
more extreme than mine, doctor.

1149
01:40:34,527 --> 01:40:37,496
Of course, they're not famous, are they?

1150
01:40:37,897 --> 01:40:40,593
You wanna know about Rorschach?

1151
01:40:42,068 --> 01:40:43,831
I'll tell you about Rorschach.

1152
01:40:45,138 --> 01:40:47,629
Once a man has seen society's
black underbelly...

1153
01:40:47,807 --> 01:40:50,435
...he can never turn his back on it.

1154
01:40:50,610 --> 01:40:53,204
Never pretend, like you do...

1155
01:40:53,479 --> 01:40:57,711
...that it doesn't exist, no matter who
orders him to look the other way.

1156
01:40:57,984 --> 01:41:01,545
We don't do this thing...

1157
01:41:01,721 --> 01:41:03,814
...because it's permitted.

1158
01:41:04,457 --> 01:41:07,017
We do it because we have to.

1159
01:41:07,760 --> 01:41:10,024
We do it because we're compelled.

1160
01:41:11,864 --> 01:41:14,298
<i>I was investigating a kidnap case.</i>

1161
01:41:16,035 --> 01:41:17,900
<i>Blaire Roche.</i>

1162
01:41:18,070 --> 01:41:21,506
<i>Six-year-old girl. I was young then.</i>

1163
01:41:22,375 --> 01:41:24,707
<i>Too soft on criminals.</i>

1164
01:41:25,645 --> 01:41:27,272
<i>I let them live.</i>

1165
01:41:28,548 --> 01:41:34,282
<i>Broke a man's arm to get a tip.
Led me to the missing girl's location.</i>

1166
01:41:41,894 --> 01:41:44,328
<i>I knew the girl was here...</i>

1167
01:41:44,497 --> 01:41:48,024
<i>...but when I searched the place,
I saw nothing.</i>

1168
01:41:48,901 --> 01:41:51,335
<i>And then I found her.</i>

1169
01:42:40,686 --> 01:42:42,551
Fred.

1170
01:42:43,422 --> 01:42:45,253
Barney.

1171
01:42:45,424 --> 01:42:48,154
Who's gonna bark for Daddy?

1172
01:42:53,599 --> 01:42:56,864
<i>It was dark when the murderer got back.</i>

1173
01:42:58,604 --> 01:43:00,196
<i>As dark as it gets.</i>

1174
01:43:38,844 --> 01:43:43,713
Oh, God.
Who's out there? Who is it?

1175
01:43:45,518 --> 01:43:46,644
Who is it?

1176
01:43:57,363 --> 01:44:00,799
What? What the fuck?
Who the fuck are you?

1177
01:44:00,966 --> 01:44:05,460
What the fuck do you want?
You killed my dogs, man!

1178
01:44:10,476 --> 01:44:15,004
You think I had something to do
with that girl? I found that.

1179
01:44:15,181 --> 01:44:17,649
What evidence have you got?
That's nothing.

1180
01:44:25,558 --> 01:44:28,356
Okay. I confess.

1181
01:44:29,562 --> 01:44:32,258
I kidnapped her. I killed her.

1182
01:44:33,032 --> 01:44:34,431
Arrest me.

1183
01:44:35,234 --> 01:44:36,963
What? Arrest me!

1184
01:44:38,571 --> 01:44:40,539
I did it! I said I did it!

1185
01:44:40,706 --> 01:44:42,139
Christ.

1186
01:44:42,308 --> 01:44:46,608
Look, I've got a problem, man.
Fucking take me in. I need help.

1187
01:44:47,413 --> 01:44:54,148
No, don't. Don't do that.
Take me in. Don't! No!

1188
01:44:59,125 --> 01:45:02,617
Men get arrested.

1189
01:45:04,029 --> 01:45:06,054
Dogs get put down.

1190
01:45:14,173 --> 01:45:16,334
<i>Tremors of impact shook my arm.</i>

1191
01:45:17,743 --> 01:45:20,075
Warm blood splashed my face.

1192
01:45:21,313 --> 01:45:25,409
Whatever was left of Walter Kovacs
died that night with that little girl.

1193
01:45:26,419 --> 01:45:28,649
From then on, there was only Rorschach.

1194
01:45:30,189 --> 01:45:32,953
See, doctor, God didn't kill that little girl.

1195
01:45:33,426 --> 01:45:37,590
Fate didn't butcher her
and destiny didn't feed her to those dogs.

1196
01:45:38,764 --> 01:45:42,200
If God saw what any of us did that night,
he didn't seem to mind.

1197
01:45:44,103 --> 01:45:45,934
From then on, I knew:

1198
01:45:47,273 --> 01:45:49,605
God doesn't make the world this way.

1199
01:45:51,610 --> 01:45:53,100
We do.

1200
01:45:59,485 --> 01:46:01,851
I can't help him.

1201
01:46:13,915 --> 01:46:15,712
Hey, Rorschach.

1202
01:46:16,717 --> 01:46:18,708
Hey, you're pretty famous, right?

1203
01:46:19,253 --> 01:46:21,346
Rorschach, I heard your mother
was a whore.

1204
01:46:21,522 --> 01:46:25,083
Hey, you know what?
I'm pretty famous too.

1205
01:46:25,259 --> 01:46:27,784
- Ain't that right? That's right.
That's right.

1206
01:46:29,430 --> 01:46:32,661
Maybe I can give you an autograph.
What you say, big boy?

1207
01:46:47,882 --> 01:46:51,443
None of you seem to understand.
I'm not locked in here with you.

1208
01:46:51,619 --> 01:46:53,712
All right, that's it!

1209
01:46:54,555 --> 01:46:56,989
You're locked in here with me.

1210
01:48:15,736 --> 01:48:16,794
Laurie!

1211
01:48:18,005 --> 01:48:19,336
Shit.

1212
01:48:20,341 --> 01:48:22,241
Hold on.
- Fuck.

1213
01:48:25,513 --> 01:48:27,003
I got it, I got it, I got it.

1214
01:48:31,686 --> 01:48:35,087
I'm so sorry. I was snooping
and must have hit the wrong button.

1215
01:48:35,256 --> 01:48:36,689
- Are you hurt?
- No, no.

1216
01:48:36,857 --> 01:48:39,951
- Okay.
- I'm fine. I just feel so bad.

1217
01:48:40,127 --> 01:48:42,118
No, don't worry.

1218
01:48:42,296 --> 01:48:45,595
It's happened before.
Comedian did it back in '77.

1219
01:48:46,701 --> 01:48:48,532
Archie survived that.

1220
01:48:48,969 --> 01:48:50,300
Archie?

1221
01:48:51,038 --> 01:48:54,496
Oh. Well, uh, short for Archimedes...

1222
01:48:54,675 --> 01:48:56,199
...Merlin's pet owl.

1223
01:48:57,311 --> 01:48:58,972
Stupid nickname.

1224
01:49:00,047 --> 01:49:02,777
How did you ever afford
all this stuff, anyway?

1225
01:49:02,950 --> 01:49:08,479
Well, my dad was in corporate banking
and left me a lot of money when he died...

1226
01:49:09,223 --> 01:49:12,556
...which always surprised me.
I mean, he was...

1227
01:49:13,227 --> 01:49:15,855
I think he was disappointed
I went into crime fighting...

1228
01:49:16,030 --> 01:49:17,725
...instead of following him.

1229
01:49:18,499 --> 01:49:25,496
Guess I was just more interested in
birds and airplanes, mythology and...

1230
01:49:25,940 --> 01:49:29,933
Plus, there were enough other guys
doing this so that I didn't feel ridiculous.

1231
01:49:30,845 --> 01:49:32,073
Like Hollis.

1232
01:49:32,246 --> 01:49:33,736
Yeah.

1233
01:49:34,515 --> 01:49:37,279
Yeah, he was my hero.

1234
01:49:38,319 --> 01:49:41,720
Man, I remember the first time
that I met him...

1235
01:49:42,623 --> 01:49:45,524
...I just felt so connected, you know?

1236
01:49:45,693 --> 01:49:48,025
To something that mattered.

1237
01:49:50,865 --> 01:49:53,527
Must be nice having a secret identity.

1238
01:49:54,201 --> 01:49:56,362
A secret place that nobody knows about.

1239
01:49:56,537 --> 01:50:01,531
You can just come down here and hang out
without anyone checking up on you.

1240
01:50:03,010 --> 01:50:05,342
Nobody watching you.

1241
01:50:08,682 --> 01:50:09,740
Wanna try those on?

1242
01:50:20,528 --> 01:50:22,189
There we go.

1243
01:50:25,366 --> 01:50:27,357
Wow, these rock.

1244
01:50:30,204 --> 01:50:32,502
They amplify the spectral range.

1245
01:50:32,673 --> 01:50:34,800
Thermal imaging.

1246
01:50:36,477 --> 01:50:38,468
They work even better in the dark.

1247
01:50:43,384 --> 01:50:45,147
You can see me, right?

1248
01:50:47,321 --> 01:50:49,983
I can see everything.

1249
01:50:52,726 --> 01:50:56,218
I remember, no matter how black it got...

1250
01:50:56,564 --> 01:51:00,694
...whenever I looked through those goggles,
everything was as clear as day.

1251
01:51:03,003 --> 01:51:05,335
This must be the way Jon sees the world.

1252
01:51:07,842 --> 01:51:10,675
We should probably head up.
Food's getting cold.

1253
01:51:10,911 --> 01:51:13,004
Put those away when you're done.

1254
01:51:21,989 --> 01:51:24,321
<i>Soviet ambassador
to the U.N. Had no comment...</i>

1255
01:51:24,492 --> 01:51:26,756
<i>...when asked if Dr. Manhattan's
disappearance...</i>

1256
01:51:26,927 --> 01:51:29,259
<i>...has fueled Soviet aggression
in Afghanistan.</i>

1257
01:51:29,430 --> 01:51:31,125
Dan.

1258
01:51:31,866 --> 01:51:33,595
Jon sees a lot of things...

1259
01:51:36,003 --> 01:51:38,301
...but he doesn't see me.

1260
01:51:45,446 --> 01:51:46,970
Well, uh...

1261
01:52:05,199 --> 01:52:06,757
Oh.

1262
01:52:40,601 --> 01:52:41,932
Sorry.

1263
01:52:43,938 --> 01:52:45,269
Come here.

1264
01:52:51,211 --> 01:52:52,473
What's the matter?

1265
01:52:52,646 --> 01:52:55,080
- Lf you could just move a little...
- Okay.

1266
01:52:55,249 --> 01:52:57,479
Yeah. There you go.

1267
01:53:03,991 --> 01:53:06,619
Dan, what's wrong?

1268
01:53:08,295 --> 01:53:09,421
Sorry, I...

1269
01:53:11,565 --> 01:53:13,795
Yeah, I just need a couple minutes.

1270
01:53:15,970 --> 01:53:17,904
Oh, hell.

1271
01:53:19,673 --> 01:53:21,504
It's okay.

1272
01:53:22,910 --> 01:53:27,347
Maybe we were just moving too fast.

1273
01:53:30,918 --> 01:53:33,546
We've got all the time in the world.

1274
01:53:35,055 --> 01:53:37,046
We'll take it slow.

1275
01:53:51,038 --> 01:53:53,370
It's been a long time, Rorschach.

1276
01:53:54,041 --> 01:53:55,531
Big Figure.

1277
01:53:55,876 --> 01:53:57,707
Small world.

1278
01:53:59,046 --> 01:54:00,536
I like that.

1279
01:54:01,315 --> 01:54:03,715
But you know, it is a small world in here.

1280
01:54:04,151 --> 01:54:06,915
And I've been in it for,
how long now, Lloyd?

1281
01:54:07,087 --> 01:54:09,214
Almost 15 years, Mr. Figure.

1282
01:54:09,556 --> 01:54:10,887
That's right.

1283
01:54:11,892 --> 01:54:15,384
Fifteen years since you
and that Owl fella put me away.

1284
01:54:18,399 --> 01:54:19,559
So...

1285
01:54:20,067 --> 01:54:24,834
...Rorschach, that guy you burned is dying.
Could go any minute.

1286
01:54:25,005 --> 01:54:30,204
You know, by my count, there are more
than 50 people in here that you put away.

1287
01:54:30,377 --> 01:54:34,711
I been talking to every one of them
and they're all dying to get a piece of you.

1288
01:54:34,882 --> 01:54:38,181
This place is gonna explode!

1289
01:54:39,753 --> 01:54:42,415
Then, you die by inches.

1290
01:54:43,357 --> 01:54:45,018
Tall order.

1291
01:54:45,259 --> 01:54:47,750
I'm gonna tear this guy a new hole.

1292
01:54:48,429 --> 01:54:51,421
Relax, Lawrence. Soon.

1293
01:54:52,266 --> 01:54:53,597
Come on.

1294
01:56:22,122 --> 01:56:23,453
Dan?

1295
01:56:30,297 --> 01:56:31,958
Is everything all right?

1296
01:56:34,301 --> 01:56:37,236
I'm tired of being afraid.

1297
01:56:38,305 --> 01:56:40,671
Afraid of war...

1298
01:56:41,475 --> 01:56:45,036
...afraid of the mask killer...

1299
01:56:46,647 --> 01:56:49,844
...and afraid of this goddamn suit...

1300
01:56:50,017 --> 01:56:51,985
...and how much I need it.

1301
01:56:52,820 --> 01:56:54,481
Me too.

1302
01:56:55,989 --> 01:56:57,286
So to hell with it.

1303
01:56:58,158 --> 01:56:59,489
Let's take Archie out.

1304
01:57:05,432 --> 01:57:06,558
You're serious.

1305
01:57:06,733 --> 01:57:09,258
I used to be a masked avenger too,
remember?

1306
01:57:09,436 --> 01:57:12,667
I'm used to going out at 3 in the morning
and doing something stupid.

1307
01:58:14,401 --> 01:58:16,494
<i>Rapid burner. Be advised, all units.</i>

1308
01:58:16,670 --> 01:58:19,230
<i>Tenement fire at 5th and Grand.
Rapid burner.</i>

1309
01:58:19,406 --> 01:58:20,737
Let's go.

1310
01:58:25,512 --> 01:58:27,878
I can see it.
All right, hold on.

1311
01:58:38,725 --> 01:58:40,158
Dan, there are kids in there.

1312
01:58:40,327 --> 01:58:42,488
Everyone, stay where you are
and remain calm.

1313
01:58:42,663 --> 01:58:44,858
We're gonna get you out of there.

1314
01:58:45,032 --> 01:58:47,193
The roof's starting to cave.
Get me in there.

1315
01:58:47,367 --> 01:58:48,834
I'm gonna get you close.

1316
01:59:47,594 --> 01:59:48,959
Let's go.

1317
01:59:49,129 --> 01:59:50,289
Come on.

1318
01:59:50,464 --> 01:59:52,056
All right, let's move it, people.

1319
01:59:58,805 --> 02:00:03,606
Mom, is that guy in the space rocket...?

1320
02:00:04,044 --> 02:00:06,274
Is that Jesus?

1321
02:00:06,446 --> 02:00:08,277
No, baby.

1322
02:00:09,182 --> 02:00:11,309
Watch your step.
All right.

1323
02:00:13,653 --> 02:00:14,677
We're all set.

1324
02:00:15,722 --> 02:00:17,383
Is that everyone?

1325
02:00:41,448 --> 02:00:43,746
Bye.
Bye!

1326
02:00:47,354 --> 02:00:48,912
I can't believe we did that.

1327
02:00:50,891 --> 02:00:53,359
- They'll lock us up with Rorschach.
- Who cares?

1328
02:00:53,527 --> 02:00:55,495
World War llI could start tomorrow.

1329
02:00:57,597 --> 02:00:58,928
Right?

1330
02:01:00,600 --> 02:01:01,931
Right.

1331
02:03:27,047 --> 02:03:28,947
Come back here!

1332
02:03:31,551 --> 02:03:33,246
He's dead, Rorschach.

1333
02:03:33,420 --> 02:03:37,618
While everyone's distracted, we thought
we'd bring you a housewarming gift.

1334
02:03:37,791 --> 02:03:39,952
Something from the machine shop.

1335
02:03:41,595 --> 02:03:43,222
Hey, boss, you notice?

1336
02:03:43,396 --> 02:03:46,422
None of that "small world,
tall order" crap.

1337
02:03:46,600 --> 02:03:49,831
He knows once we slice open his lock,
he's next on the block.

1338
02:03:50,270 --> 02:03:51,396
Fat chance.

1339
02:03:52,105 --> 02:03:53,231
You're dead, Rorschach!

1340
02:03:53,406 --> 02:03:57,069
We got a prison full of killers out here.
What do you got?

1341
02:04:00,013 --> 02:04:02,447
Your hands, my pleasure.

1342
02:04:04,451 --> 02:04:06,442
Can't reach the lock. Should I cut the bars?

1343
02:04:06,620 --> 02:04:09,919
This riot won't last.
I been waiting 15 years for this.

1344
02:04:11,057 --> 02:04:14,424
I'm sorry, Lawrence, but you're in the way
of my revenge.

1345
02:04:18,131 --> 02:04:19,860
Nothing personal, big guy.

1346
02:04:21,301 --> 02:04:23,292
Boss! Wait!

1347
02:04:37,450 --> 02:04:39,247
Now you find out what the score is.

1348
02:04:39,686 --> 02:04:42,814
One-nothing. Come and get me.

1349
02:04:48,862 --> 02:04:50,523
Come on.

1350
02:04:50,697 --> 02:04:52,324
<i>So I've been thinking.</i>

1351
02:04:53,266 --> 02:04:57,430
I feel that we have an obligation
to our fraternity.

1352
02:04:58,271 --> 02:05:01,331
- I think we ought to spring Rorschach.
What?

1353
02:05:01,508 --> 02:05:03,271
Someone set him up.

1354
02:05:04,110 --> 02:05:07,705
And this whole cancer thing with Jon,
it just doesn't make sense.

1355
02:05:07,881 --> 02:05:09,815
You didn't get it.

1356
02:05:10,116 --> 02:05:12,550
Yeah, but breaking
into a maximum-security prison...

1357
02:05:12,719 --> 02:05:16,382
...is a little different than putting out a fire.
- Yeah, you're right.

1358
02:05:17,290 --> 02:05:19,121
It'll be more fun.

1359
02:05:23,296 --> 02:05:26,288
Hurry, Lloyd. I wanna
smell this son of a bitch cooking.

1360
02:05:31,571 --> 02:05:33,300
Yes.

1361
02:05:38,044 --> 02:05:39,068
No.

1362
02:05:52,992 --> 02:05:57,827
Never disposed of sewage
with a toilet before. Obvious, really.

1363
02:05:58,665 --> 02:06:01,964
Two-nothing. Your move.

1364
02:06:05,305 --> 02:06:06,932
Get out of the way!

1365
02:06:50,950 --> 02:06:52,508
No. No.

1366
02:06:53,153 --> 02:06:54,552
Where's my face?

1367
02:06:57,090 --> 02:06:58,819
Don't kill me.

1368
02:07:02,495 --> 02:07:03,894
Your turn, doctor.

1369
02:07:04,063 --> 02:07:07,260
Tell me, what do you see?

1370
02:08:33,419 --> 02:08:35,148
Don't move!

1371
02:08:43,429 --> 02:08:45,192
Rorschach.

1372
02:08:45,698 --> 02:08:48,496
Daniel. Miss Jupiter.

1373
02:08:48,668 --> 02:08:52,069
Excuse me. Have to visit men's room.

1374
02:08:52,605 --> 02:08:54,573
Oh, for chrissake.

1375
02:09:31,778 --> 02:09:33,905
Good to see you in uniform, Daniel.

1376
02:09:34,080 --> 02:09:37,516
Should've known all you needed
was nice pair of legs to motivate you.

1377
02:09:37,684 --> 02:09:41,916
You're such an asshole, Rorschach.
- Spare me indignation.

1378
02:09:43,156 --> 02:09:46,182
Picked hell of a time
to be unfaithful to Jon.

1379
02:09:46,359 --> 02:09:49,157
Get tired of being patriotic,
or someone put you up to it?

1380
02:09:49,329 --> 02:09:51,991
You don't know what the fuck
you're talking about!

1381
02:09:52,165 --> 02:09:56,033
Hey! Would you two stop?
You can argue later.

1382
02:09:56,202 --> 02:09:59,933
I had to turn the screechers off,
so we'll be drawing fire soon.

1383
02:10:03,943 --> 02:10:06,309
Stop! Stop or we will shoot!

1384
02:10:45,184 --> 02:10:47,311
Are you all right?

1385
02:10:48,755 --> 02:10:50,950
Yeah. Just...

1386
02:10:51,391 --> 02:10:52,653
...heavy, you know?

1387
02:10:53,459 --> 02:10:55,552
War, jailbreak.

1388
02:10:56,095 --> 02:11:00,964
Don't worry about it. Okay?
Everything's gonna be fine.

1389
02:11:05,972 --> 02:11:08,998
- Hello, Laurie.
- Jon.

1390
02:11:09,175 --> 02:11:12,804
- TV said you were on Mars.
- I am on Mars.

1391
02:11:13,379 --> 02:11:15,779
You and I are about
to have a conversation there.

1392
02:11:15,948 --> 02:11:17,415
What are you talking about?

1393
02:11:17,583 --> 02:11:20,245
You're going to try to convince me
to save the world.

1394
02:11:26,159 --> 02:11:29,151
- Laurie, don't.
- Dan, trust me.

1395
02:11:29,328 --> 02:11:30,989
I have to go.

1396
02:11:36,669 --> 02:11:38,660
Beautiful, isn't it?

1397
02:11:43,509 --> 02:11:46,444
Forgive me. These things sometimes
slip my mind.

1398
02:11:47,847 --> 02:11:49,678
It won't happen again.

1399
02:11:51,350 --> 02:11:53,341
That's comforting.

1400
02:11:55,688 --> 02:11:57,349
Oh, my God.

1401
02:11:58,024 --> 02:11:59,855
I'm on Mars.

1402
02:12:03,863 --> 02:12:07,731
Hey. Nice ass.
Hey, asshole.

1403
02:12:07,900 --> 02:12:10,494
Hey, let's see if that comic-book
retard's up here.

1404
02:12:11,304 --> 02:12:13,238
Hey, hey, hey. Yo.

1405
02:12:13,406 --> 02:12:18,105
You all hear? Some super-owl dude
just busted Rorschach out of prison.

1406
02:12:18,277 --> 02:12:20,006
- Rorschach?
- Yeah.

1407
02:12:20,179 --> 02:12:22,044
That fool put my cousin in a wheelchair.

1408
02:12:22,215 --> 02:12:25,082
You mean Nite Owl.
Him and Rorschach used to be partners.

1409
02:12:25,251 --> 02:12:27,913
- Yeah.
- Maybe he messed your cousin up too.

1410
02:12:28,087 --> 02:12:30,317
- Didn't he write a book or something?
- Yeah.

1411
02:12:30,490 --> 02:12:34,358
You know, he lives over a garage
right near here.

1412
02:12:34,527 --> 02:12:37,189
- Yeah?
- Does he, now?

1413
02:12:39,932 --> 02:12:41,092
<i>Hello?</i>

1414
02:12:42,101 --> 02:12:44,092
Sally?

1415
02:12:44,270 --> 02:12:47,171
<i>- Hollis?
- Yeah.</i>

1416
02:12:47,440 --> 02:12:51,342
Yes, Hollis Mason. Jesus.

1417
02:12:52,145 --> 02:12:56,775
All this time you've had my number and
you wait until our sunset years to use it?

1418
02:12:56,949 --> 02:12:59,747
Well, it seemed like
a special occasion, Sal.

1419
02:12:59,919 --> 02:13:01,045
<i>What?</i>

1420
02:13:01,220 --> 02:13:05,452
The TV is reporting there was
a tenement fire last night.

1421
02:13:06,325 --> 02:13:09,123
<i>There were trapped people
rescued by airship...</i>

1422
02:13:09,295 --> 02:13:14,858
<i>...and they say the pilot
was dressed like an owl.</i>

1423
02:13:15,034 --> 02:13:17,229
<i>And it seems he had
a sexy woman with him.</i>

1424
02:13:17,403 --> 02:13:19,997
Laurie? My daughter, Laurie?

1425
02:13:21,607 --> 02:13:24,735
I can't get over Laurie back in costume.

1426
02:13:24,911 --> 02:13:28,369
Maybe she'll finally thank me
for getting her started in the first place.

1427
02:13:28,548 --> 02:13:32,143
You know, Sal,
by the sound of your voice...

1428
02:13:32,318 --> 02:13:34,047
...you're sounding younger than ever.

1429
02:13:34,220 --> 02:13:36,518
<i>Oh. Why, bless you, Hollis.</i>

1430
02:13:37,190 --> 02:13:39,215
But that's probably just senility.

1431
02:13:41,994 --> 02:13:44,929
Well, it's been great talking to you, Sal...

1432
02:13:45,097 --> 02:13:47,463
...but someone's knocking.

1433
02:13:48,000 --> 02:13:52,994
Well, don't get too misty-eyed
thinking about old times.

1434
02:13:53,873 --> 02:13:55,704
You take care now, Hollis.

1435
02:13:55,875 --> 02:13:57,172
<i>Ah, you too.</i>

1436
02:13:57,343 --> 02:13:58,571
Bye.

1437
02:13:59,145 --> 02:14:00,635
Bye.

1438
02:14:04,083 --> 02:14:06,381
We're looking for Mr. Owl.

1439
02:14:07,253 --> 02:14:09,448
Yeah. Hold your horses.

1440
02:14:09,622 --> 02:14:11,180
Mr. Owl, you there?

1441
02:14:11,757 --> 02:14:13,156
Trick or treat.

1442
02:14:14,760 --> 02:14:16,352
You should've stayed retired, Owl.

1443
02:15:21,594 --> 02:15:23,152
<i>I hate this.</i>

1444
02:15:23,329 --> 02:15:27,561
Cowering in cave,
hiding from authorities.

1445
02:15:27,800 --> 02:15:30,997
Cops are out there hunting us.
Unless you wanna go back to prison...

1446
02:15:31,170 --> 02:15:33,638
...we'd be stupid to expose ourselves
without a plan.

1447
02:15:33,806 --> 02:15:36,070
And what would that be?

1448
02:15:36,409 --> 02:15:40,106
Once we've established a pattern...

1449
02:15:40,513 --> 02:15:42,640
...we can break into Pyramid,
see what we find.

1450
02:15:42,815 --> 02:15:45,249
Did that. Dead end.

1451
02:15:45,418 --> 02:15:50,014
I think it's a front company for whoever's
really behind it, but can't prove it.

1452
02:15:52,959 --> 02:15:57,293
We need to hit up underworld contacts,
squeeze people.

1453
02:15:57,463 --> 02:16:00,193
Sure, why don't we just pick names
out of a phone book?

1454
02:16:00,366 --> 02:16:02,493
You forgot how we do things, Daniel.

1455
02:16:02,668 --> 02:16:07,128
You've gone too soft. Too trusting.
Especially with women.

1456
02:16:07,306 --> 02:16:09,399
Okay, no. Listen, I've had it with that.

1457
02:16:09,575 --> 02:16:11,600
God, who do you
think you are, Rorschach?

1458
02:16:11,777 --> 02:16:13,870
You live off people
while insulting them...

1459
02:16:14,046 --> 02:16:17,846
...and no one complains because they think
you're a goddamn lunatic.

1460
02:16:29,829 --> 02:16:31,660
I'm sorry.

1461
02:16:34,333 --> 02:16:36,494
I shouldn't have said that, man.

1462
02:16:38,504 --> 02:16:39,835
Daniel...

1463
02:16:41,340 --> 02:16:43,808
...you are a good friend.

1464
02:16:46,679 --> 02:16:49,842
I know it can be difficult
with me sometimes.

1465
02:16:56,355 --> 02:16:57,845
Forget it.

1466
02:16:59,025 --> 02:17:00,686
It's okay, man.

1467
02:17:01,961 --> 02:17:03,553
Let's do it your way.

1468
02:17:22,615 --> 02:17:23,912
Oh, God.

1469
02:17:24,083 --> 02:17:28,452
Pyramid Transnational.
Anyone heard of it?

1470
02:17:35,928 --> 02:17:37,418
Oh, you bastards.

1471
02:17:37,596 --> 02:17:40,690
I buy everyone a round
and you sell me out like this?

1472
02:17:41,901 --> 02:17:45,200
Back off, or I'll stick this glass
in your squidgy face.

1473
02:17:46,906 --> 02:17:49,841
Everybody stay calm.
We'll try to keep this brief.

1474
02:17:51,944 --> 02:17:54,105
Roy Chess. On Pyramid payroll.

1475
02:17:54,280 --> 02:17:58,774
Tried to kill Adrian Veidt. Dead now.
Did you know him?

1476
02:17:58,951 --> 02:18:00,612
No.

1477
02:18:01,987 --> 02:18:03,249
Yeah, yeah!

1478
02:18:03,422 --> 02:18:06,357
- I hired him. I knew him from the inside.
- You're a felon.

1479
02:18:06,525 --> 02:18:09,494
I was. I've been straight
ever since I got out, I swear.

1480
02:18:09,662 --> 02:18:13,393
I barely knew Chess that well,
but I was told to hire from the old life.

1481
02:18:13,566 --> 02:18:17,161
- Told by whom?
- My contact, Miss Slater.

1482
02:18:17,336 --> 02:18:19,930
Janey Slater works for Pyramid too?

1483
02:18:20,106 --> 02:18:24,065
Yeah, she was real nice. She said hiring
ex-cons was part of the company program.

1484
02:18:24,243 --> 02:18:27,940
Give people a second chance.
God, please let go! I'm telling the truth!

1485
02:18:32,084 --> 02:18:35,315
Janey Slater, Manhattan's old girlfriend.

1486
02:18:35,488 --> 02:18:38,184
Adrian might help us
find out who's underwriting Pyramid.

1487
02:18:38,357 --> 02:18:39,415
Follow the money.

1488
02:18:39,592 --> 02:18:42,857
<i>former member of the
Minutemen Hollis Mason found murdered...</i>

1489
02:18:43,028 --> 02:18:45,360
<i>...in his apartment less than
an hour ago.</i>

1490
02:18:45,531 --> 02:18:49,627
<i>Witnesses reported seeing members
of a local gang known as the Knot-Tops...</i>

1491
02:18:49,802 --> 02:18:53,067
<i>...leaving the area right around
the estimated time of death.</i>

1492
02:18:53,239 --> 02:18:56,174
<i>Reporting live, Tiffany Burns...</i>

1493
02:18:58,511 --> 02:19:01,503
- Who did it?
- I knew you were gonna victimize me, man.

1494
02:19:01,680 --> 02:19:03,807
What about my civil rights?
Just because I'm wearing...

1495
02:19:03,983 --> 02:19:07,043
- Tell me who did it!
- A lot of people dress like this.

1496
02:19:08,387 --> 02:19:10,287
Who murdered Hollis Mason?

1497
02:19:15,961 --> 02:19:18,225
You tell your friends they're dead.

1498
02:19:18,397 --> 02:19:21,958
I'm gonna take out this entire
rathole neighborhood.

1499
02:19:22,134 --> 02:19:24,625
I'll break your neck!

1500
02:19:25,204 --> 02:19:28,196
Daniel, not in front of the civilians.

1501
02:19:28,807 --> 02:19:31,640
Oh, goddamn. Goddamn, Hollis.

1502
02:19:41,654 --> 02:19:44,817
This is where we hold our conversation.

1503
02:19:45,424 --> 02:19:49,326
In it, you reveal to me that you and
Dreiberg have been sleeping together.

1504
02:19:50,496 --> 02:19:53,863
- You know about me and Dan?
- Not yet.

1505
02:19:54,166 --> 02:19:56,999
But in a few moments
you're going to tell me.

1506
02:19:59,338 --> 02:20:04,366
If you already know the future, then why
were you surprised when I left you?

1507
02:20:04,543 --> 02:20:06,738
Or when that reporter ambushed you?

1508
02:20:06,912 --> 02:20:10,541
Why even argue about it
if you already know how this is gonna end?

1509
02:20:11,717 --> 02:20:13,981
I have no choice.

1510
02:20:15,287 --> 02:20:18,222
Everything is preordained.

1511
02:20:18,390 --> 02:20:20,722
Even my responses.

1512
02:20:21,694 --> 02:20:25,289
And you're just going through
the motions.

1513
02:20:25,464 --> 02:20:28,865
The most powerful thing in the universe
is still just a puppet.

1514
02:20:32,004 --> 02:20:34,666
We are all puppets, Laurie.

1515
02:20:35,608 --> 02:20:38,099
I'm just a puppet
who can see the strings.

1516
02:20:38,277 --> 02:20:39,972
And what if you're wrong?

1517
02:20:40,145 --> 02:20:44,639
Why does my perception of time
distress you so?

1518
02:20:44,817 --> 02:20:46,717
Because it's inhuman.

1519
02:20:46,885 --> 02:20:49,285
Because it makes me insane.

1520
02:20:49,455 --> 02:20:53,357
You always say you wanna comfort me.
Well, it isn't working.

1521
02:21:00,766 --> 02:21:03,257
Look, I don't wanna fight.

1522
02:21:04,770 --> 02:21:07,500
I'm sorry I slept with Dan.

1523
02:21:08,073 --> 02:21:10,098
You slept with Dan?

1524
02:21:11,810 --> 02:21:14,802
You just said that you already
knew about that.

1525
02:21:15,514 --> 02:21:19,507
I said often...

1526
02:21:20,185 --> 02:21:24,519
...that you were my only
remaining link to humanity.

1527
02:21:26,959 --> 02:21:28,449
Why would I save a world...

1528
02:21:28,627 --> 02:21:30,754
...I no longer have any stake in?

1529
02:21:32,865 --> 02:21:34,924
Then do it for me.

1530
02:21:35,801 --> 02:21:37,200
If you really care.

1531
02:21:37,369 --> 02:21:40,805
When you left me, I left Earth.

1532
02:21:40,973 --> 02:21:43,874
Does that not show you that I care?

1533
02:21:47,079 --> 02:21:50,014
My red world here, now...

1534
02:21:51,016 --> 02:21:53,917
...means more to me than your blue one.

1535
02:21:54,687 --> 02:21:56,416
Let me show you.

1536
02:22:14,540 --> 02:22:17,475
<i>Bombers are fueled and ready, sir.</i>

1537
02:22:26,819 --> 02:22:29,049
It's time, gentlemen.

1538
02:22:31,156 --> 02:22:33,556
Take us to DEFCON one.

1539
02:22:40,833 --> 02:22:43,927
Not in penthouse. Not in office.

1540
02:22:44,103 --> 02:22:47,004
What nocturnal proclivities
entice a man with everything...

1541
02:22:47,172 --> 02:22:48,935
...out into the night at this hour?

1542
02:22:51,009 --> 02:22:52,874
Daniel?

1543
02:22:54,113 --> 02:22:55,876
You with me?

1544
02:22:56,682 --> 02:22:59,810
- Yeah.
- Then what are you doing?

1545
02:23:01,920 --> 02:23:03,683
I'm gonna look for Adrian's itinerary.

1546
02:23:03,856 --> 02:23:06,620
Maybe he keeps on file.

1547
02:23:11,130 --> 02:23:13,598
- Something's not right.
- Agreed.

1548
02:23:13,766 --> 02:23:18,533
Janey Slater, Moloch, Roy Chess
all work for Pyramid.

1549
02:23:18,704 --> 02:23:23,334
Moloch said the Comedian mentioned list
with his and Slater's name on it.

1550
02:23:23,509 --> 02:23:26,808
Whoever owns Pyramid
could be giving these people cancer.

1551
02:23:26,979 --> 02:23:29,447
Setting Manhattan up.

1552
02:23:43,595 --> 02:23:44,755
Funny.

1553
02:23:44,930 --> 02:23:48,422
Ancient pharaohs looked forward
to the end of the world.

1554
02:23:48,600 --> 02:23:53,628
Believed cadavers would rise,
reclaim hearts from golden jars.

1555
02:23:54,273 --> 02:23:56,901
Must currently be holding breath
in anticipation.

1556
02:23:57,075 --> 02:23:58,303
Pharaohs?

1557
02:24:05,184 --> 02:24:07,209
Got a psych profile on Manhattan.

1558
02:24:07,853 --> 02:24:10,321
See what the corporate head-peepers say.

1559
02:24:12,357 --> 02:24:14,882
"Subject continues
to retreat emotionally.

1560
02:24:17,196 --> 02:24:20,256
If the only remaining ties
were to be severed...

1561
02:24:20,866 --> 02:24:24,825
...we predict total detachment
from the human condition. "

1562
02:24:28,941 --> 02:24:30,704
I'm in.

1563
02:24:59,571 --> 02:25:00,902
No.

1564
02:25:03,075 --> 02:25:08,843
Congratulations, Mr. Veidt.
Dr. Manhattan's energy reactor is online.

1565
02:25:09,014 --> 02:25:12,882
Your support and your enthusiasm...

1566
02:25:13,051 --> 02:25:15,349
...is what has led to this triumph.

1567
02:25:15,521 --> 02:25:19,548
On behalf of the research team,
we salute you.

1568
02:25:19,725 --> 02:25:22,159
- Cheers.
- Cheers.

1569
02:25:22,928 --> 02:25:27,058
What in life
does not deserve celebrating?

1570
02:25:28,000 --> 02:25:32,096
This is the new Karnak.

1571
02:25:32,271 --> 02:25:35,866
This represents the culmination of a dream
more than 2000 years old...

1572
02:25:36,041 --> 02:25:42,310
...a dream now assured
because of your unquestioning assistance.

1573
02:25:44,449 --> 02:25:46,110
And for this...

1574
02:25:46,952 --> 02:25:49,284
...I am ashamed...

1575
02:25:50,455 --> 02:25:54,789
...ashamed that you must now share
such inadequate a reward.

1576
02:25:56,461 --> 02:25:58,452
To the pharaohs...

1577
02:25:59,398 --> 02:26:02,390
...their greatest secrets
entrusted to their servants...

1578
02:26:03,035 --> 02:26:07,369
...buried alive with them
in sand-floored chambers.

1579
02:26:08,240 --> 02:26:10,640
Sleep well, gentlemen.

1580
02:26:11,310 --> 02:26:14,643
Our new, peaceful world
will be indebted...

1581
02:26:14,980 --> 02:26:17,540
...to your great sacrifice.

1582
02:26:18,483 --> 02:26:20,678
Bubastis.

1583
02:26:24,856 --> 02:26:27,848
<i>Rorschach's journal. Final entry.</i>

1584
02:26:28,193 --> 02:26:30,684
<i>Veidt's behind everything.</i>

1585
02:26:30,862 --> 02:26:32,454
<i>Why?</i>

1586
02:26:32,631 --> 02:26:34,690
<i>What's his endgame?</i>

1587
02:26:34,866 --> 02:26:38,529
<i>I cannot imagine
a more dangerous opponent.</i>

1588
02:26:38,737 --> 02:26:42,173
<i>Used to joke he was fast enough
to catch a bullet.</i>

1589
02:26:42,341 --> 02:26:45,242
<i>He could kill us both alone in the snow.</i>

1590
02:26:45,410 --> 02:26:49,107
<i>That's where we're going now:
Antarctica.</i>

1591
02:26:49,281 --> 02:26:52,045
<i>Whether I'm alive or dead
upon this reading...</i>

1592
02:26:52,217 --> 02:26:56,483
<i>...I hope the world survives long enough
for this journal to reach you.</i>

1593
02:26:56,655 --> 02:26:59,215
<i>I live my life free of compromise...</i>

1594
02:26:59,391 --> 02:27:03,327
<i>...and step into the shadow
without complaint or regret.</i>

1595
02:27:03,962 --> 02:27:06,954
<i>Rorschach, November 1 st.</i>

1596
02:27:07,132 --> 02:27:10,659
<i>Can't you just tell me how
this ends and save us the trouble?</i>

1597
02:27:11,637 --> 02:27:13,537
It ends with you in tears.

1598
02:27:13,705 --> 02:27:17,300
Tears? So you don't come back to Earth.

1599
02:27:17,476 --> 02:27:20,912
At some point, yes.

1600
02:27:21,980 --> 02:27:24,915
The streets are filled with death.

1601
02:27:25,083 --> 02:27:27,142
Jon, please.

1602
02:27:27,319 --> 02:27:31,881
You have to stop this. Everyone will die.

1603
02:27:32,057 --> 02:27:36,391
And the universe will not even notice.

1604
02:27:38,830 --> 02:27:43,062
In my opinion, the existence of life...

1605
02:27:43,935 --> 02:27:46,927
...is a highly overrated phenomenon.

1606
02:27:48,840 --> 02:27:51,138
Just look around you.

1607
02:27:53,879 --> 02:27:58,213
Mars gets along perfectly well
without so much as a microorganism.

1608
02:27:58,850 --> 02:28:03,412
Here, it's a constantly changing
topographical map...

1609
02:28:03,588 --> 02:28:09,527
...flowing and shifting around the pole
in ripples 10,000 years wide.

1610
02:28:10,362 --> 02:28:11,852
So tell me...

1611
02:28:12,030 --> 02:28:16,399
...how would all of this be greatly improved
by an oil pipeline?

1612
02:28:16,868 --> 02:28:18,859
By a shopping mall?

1613
02:28:23,208 --> 02:28:27,508
So it's too much to ask for a miracle?

1614
02:28:27,679 --> 02:28:29,806
Miracles, by their definition,
are meaningless.

1615
02:28:29,981 --> 02:28:31,471
Oh, God, Jon!

1616
02:28:31,650 --> 02:28:36,713
- Only what can happen does happen.
- Just stop your bullshit.

1617
02:28:37,789 --> 02:28:40,314
Land this thing. Now.

1618
02:28:40,492 --> 02:28:43,052
As you wish.

1619
02:28:48,667 --> 02:28:49,725
You know what?

1620
02:28:49,901 --> 02:28:52,597
You can send me back to Earth
to fry with Dan and my mom...

1621
02:28:52,771 --> 02:28:55,137
...and all the other worthless humans.

1622
02:28:55,307 --> 02:28:58,743
But know that you were wrong.
You said this ended with me in tears...

1623
02:28:58,910 --> 02:29:03,074
...and look: Nothing.
Maybe you were wrong about everything.

1624
02:29:03,248 --> 02:29:08,515
You complain that I refuse to see life
on life's terms...

1625
02:29:09,254 --> 02:29:13,020
...yet you continuously refuse
to see things from my perspective.

1626
02:29:13,191 --> 02:29:17,594
- You shut out what you're afraid of.
- I'm not afraid.

1627
02:29:17,763 --> 02:29:22,791
You want me to see things your way?
Go ahead, show me. Do that thing you do.

1628
02:29:29,941 --> 02:29:35,038
Magic. Dreams. That is what I had before.
I was a hero, goddamn it!

1629
02:29:35,213 --> 02:29:38,273
It's not my fault you got old.
What do you have to complain about?

1630
02:29:38,450 --> 02:29:40,577
I put food on the table
for you and your child.

1631
02:29:40,752 --> 02:29:43,550
Call your friend Eddie.
Maybe he can give you a better life.

1632
02:29:44,289 --> 02:29:46,985
Even the grimy parts of it...

1633
02:29:47,359 --> 02:29:49,589
...keep on getting brighter.

1634
02:29:49,928 --> 02:29:53,523
You know, your mom, she was one
of the all-time champion beauties.

1635
02:29:53,698 --> 02:29:58,135
- You got her eyes, you know. You got...
- Take your hands off her.

1636
02:29:58,303 --> 02:30:00,430
Hey, doll. Long time no see.

1637
02:30:00,605 --> 02:30:03,369
Not long enough in my book, Eddie.
Get in the car.

1638
02:30:03,875 --> 02:30:05,740
Now.

1639
02:30:06,711 --> 02:30:08,702
Are there no depths you won't sink to?

1640
02:30:08,880 --> 02:30:12,714
Jesus Christ, Sally.
Can't a guy talk to his...

1641
02:30:13,418 --> 02:30:15,113
...you know, old friend's daughter?

1642
02:30:17,422 --> 02:30:18,753
Drive.

1643
02:30:24,763 --> 02:30:27,561
<i>It was a mistake. One time.</i>

1644
02:30:27,866 --> 02:30:31,029
Guy tries to rape you, and years later,
you let him finish the job?

1645
02:30:31,269 --> 02:30:33,965
What? Were you drunk or just lonely?

1646
02:30:34,139 --> 02:30:37,074
Am I ever gonna live this down?

1647
02:30:40,445 --> 02:30:41,571
Laurie.

1648
02:30:46,451 --> 02:30:47,782
No.

1649
02:30:49,788 --> 02:30:52,279
No, not him.

1650
02:30:52,457 --> 02:30:54,550
The Comedian...

1651
02:30:54,960 --> 02:30:57,053
...was your father.

1652
02:30:58,530 --> 02:31:00,225
No.

1653
02:31:03,535 --> 02:31:09,235
No! No! No!

1654
02:31:41,840 --> 02:31:43,831
My life is just...

1655
02:31:44,509 --> 02:31:46,636
...one big joke.

1656
02:31:46,811 --> 02:31:49,371
I don't think your life is a joke.

1657
02:31:51,016 --> 02:31:53,007
Yeah, well...

1658
02:31:54,853 --> 02:31:59,017
...I'm sorry if I don't
trust your sense of humor.

1659
02:32:07,198 --> 02:32:08,859
Will you smile...

1660
02:32:10,535 --> 02:32:13,003
...if I admit I was wrong?

1661
02:32:15,874 --> 02:32:17,865
About what?

1662
02:32:19,878 --> 02:32:21,368
Miracles.

1663
02:32:23,048 --> 02:32:26,211
Events with astronomical odds
of occurring...

1664
02:32:27,052 --> 02:32:29,543
...like oxygen turning into gold.

1665
02:32:29,721 --> 02:32:34,556
I've longed to witness such an event,
and yet I neglect...

1666
02:32:35,226 --> 02:32:37,592
...that in human coupling...

1667
02:32:38,396 --> 02:32:42,264
...millions upon millions of cells
compete to create life...

1668
02:32:42,734 --> 02:32:45,532
...for generation after generation...

1669
02:32:46,404 --> 02:32:49,464
...until finally, your mother...

1670
02:32:49,841 --> 02:32:51,035
...loves a man...

1671
02:32:51,676 --> 02:32:55,271
...Edward Blake, the Comedian,
a man she has every reason to hate...

1672
02:32:55,447 --> 02:32:59,440
...and out of that contradiction,
against unfathomable odds...

1673
02:33:00,118 --> 02:33:02,018
...it's you...

1674
02:33:03,755 --> 02:33:05,086
Only...

1675
02:33:05,757 --> 02:33:07,247
...you.

1676
02:33:08,093 --> 02:33:09,355
That emerged.

1677
02:33:09,928 --> 02:33:14,422
To distill so specific a form...

1678
02:33:14,599 --> 02:33:16,863
...from all that chaos...

1679
02:33:18,770 --> 02:33:21,739
...is like turning air into gold.

1680
02:33:26,111 --> 02:33:28,102
A miracle.

1681
02:33:31,616 --> 02:33:33,106
And so...

1682
02:33:33,618 --> 02:33:35,449
...I was wrong.

1683
02:33:37,455 --> 02:33:41,289
Now dry your eyes, and let's go home.

1684
02:34:08,820 --> 02:34:12,847
We got a bearing on that artificial structure.
Heat signature's off the charts.

1685
02:34:13,825 --> 02:34:16,919
- Veidt.
- I don't like the way Archie's kicking.

1686
02:34:25,336 --> 02:34:28,169
- The engines.
- They're icing up. Hold onto something.

1687
02:34:28,940 --> 02:34:30,965
Daniel, you're coming in too low.

1688
02:34:33,845 --> 02:34:37,008
Don't wish to interfere,
but perhaps should pull up sharply...

1689
02:34:37,182 --> 02:34:41,118
I know! I'm trying.
I'm trying to pull him up, goddamn it!

1690
02:35:08,379 --> 02:35:12,008
I'm gonna redirect the heat from
the flamethrower to speed up deicing...

1691
02:35:12,183 --> 02:35:15,050
...but it's gonna take a while
and we don't have time to wait.

1692
02:35:16,554 --> 02:35:18,021
You need something warmer.

1693
02:35:18,556 --> 02:35:20,717
Fine like this.

1694
02:35:50,221 --> 02:35:52,086
What is it, girl?

1695
02:35:54,392 --> 02:35:56,087
Mm.

1696
02:36:21,686 --> 02:36:23,950
Adrian's a pacifist.

1697
02:36:24,155 --> 02:36:28,785
He's a vegetarian, for chrissakes.
He's never killed anyone in his life.

1698
02:36:28,960 --> 02:36:30,359
Hitler was vegetarian.

1699
02:36:30,528 --> 02:36:35,056
You're squeamish, leave him to me.
We won't get second chance.

1700
02:37:46,304 --> 02:37:47,635
Gentlemen.

1701
02:37:48,139 --> 02:37:52,075
- Welcome.
- Adrian, we know everything.

1702
02:37:52,243 --> 02:37:54,006
Then what's there to discuss, Dan?

1703
02:37:54,178 --> 02:37:57,170
Plenty. You killed Comedian.

1704
02:37:57,348 --> 02:37:58,872
May he rest in peace.

1705
02:37:59,384 --> 02:38:01,978
Blake figured it out first.

1706
02:38:02,153 --> 02:38:06,214
<i>Nixon had him keeping tabs on us,
making sure we weren't rocking the boat.</i>

1707
02:38:07,158 --> 02:38:09,422
<i>Blake found out what I was doing
here in Karnak...</i>

1708
02:38:09,594 --> 02:38:13,655
<i>...and by the time he visited poor Moloch,
he was cracking badly.</i>

1709
02:38:13,831 --> 02:38:17,096
Even I couldn't predict he'd be the one
to have a change of heart.

1710
02:38:17,835 --> 02:38:19,359
So...

1711
02:38:20,405 --> 02:38:22,339
...I had to kill him.

1712
02:38:22,907 --> 02:38:26,673
Then I neutralized Jon. No easy task.

1713
02:38:26,844 --> 02:38:29,312
I put roughly $2 billion
into tachyon research...

1714
02:38:29,480 --> 02:38:31,505
...to block Jon's vision of the future.

1715
02:38:31,683 --> 02:38:33,947
You used his psych profile
to manipulate him.

1716
02:38:34,452 --> 02:38:35,919
<i>Got him to leave the planet.</i>

1717
02:38:36,087 --> 02:38:39,488
I've known Jon long enough
to see he isn't devoid of emotion.

1718
02:38:39,657 --> 02:38:43,559
His subtle facial twitches wouldn't be
noticed by the layman, but to me...

1719
02:38:43,728 --> 02:38:45,559
<i>...he might as well have been sobbing.</i>

1720
02:38:45,930 --> 02:38:49,058
<i>All I needed to do was tug on the thread.</i>

1721
02:38:49,233 --> 02:38:51,133
<i>The sudden flood of emotion Jon felt...</i>

1722
02:38:51,302 --> 02:38:54,897
<i>...when he came to believe
he'd given cancer to the people he loved...</i>

1723
02:38:55,073 --> 02:38:57,200
<i>...was all the excuse he needed
to leave Earth.</i>

1724
02:38:57,375 --> 02:39:01,209
<i>Your bullshit assassin.
You paid him to throw us off.</i>

1725
02:39:01,379 --> 02:39:06,043
<i>Mr. Chess gave his life
in the service of a higher cause, Dan.</i>

1726
02:39:08,186 --> 02:39:11,280
<i>I put a cyanide capsule in his mouth...</i>

1727
02:39:11,456 --> 02:39:14,050
<i>...leaving only one loose end:</i>

1728
02:39:14,659 --> 02:39:18,095
You, and your mask-killer theory...

1729
02:39:18,262 --> 02:39:21,390
<i>...one you followed
with the tenacity of a true sociopath.</i>

1730
02:39:21,566 --> 02:39:23,261
<i>I tipped off the police.</i>

1731
02:39:23,434 --> 02:39:25,834
Once you were in prison,
I was able to move forward.

1732
02:39:26,003 --> 02:39:28,631
Sorry to disappoint you.

1733
02:39:41,819 --> 02:39:44,287
We were supposed to make the world
a better place.

1734
02:39:44,455 --> 02:39:46,184
Dan, that's exactly what I am doing.

1735
02:39:46,357 --> 02:39:47,688
Nuclear war?

1736
02:39:47,859 --> 02:39:50,020
Human extinction?

1737
02:39:59,670 --> 02:40:04,573
Of course, my moral safeguards
gave me pause at the necessary sacrifice.

1738
02:40:04,742 --> 02:40:07,711
A few key regions around the globe...

1739
02:40:07,879 --> 02:40:13,340
New York, Los Angeles, Moscow,
Hong Kong.

1740
02:40:13,518 --> 02:40:15,179
Disintegrated in an instant.

1741
02:40:15,920 --> 02:40:19,253
Fifteen million people killed...

1742
02:40:19,424 --> 02:40:21,483
...by Dr. Manhattan himself.

1743
02:40:22,693 --> 02:40:25,491
The world's punishment
for flirting with World War III.

1744
02:40:25,663 --> 02:40:26,789
Jon wouldn't do that.

1745
02:40:27,365 --> 02:40:30,061
A fact no one outside this room
ever has to know.

1746
02:40:30,701 --> 02:40:34,501
The energy breakthrough I was working on
just came to fruition.

1747
02:40:35,106 --> 02:40:39,099
All these years, Jon was helping me
replicate his power...

1748
02:40:39,277 --> 02:40:41,802
...unaware of how I planned to use it.

1749
02:40:41,979 --> 02:40:43,970
You see...

1750
02:40:44,882 --> 02:40:47,282
...the Comedian was right.

1751
02:40:47,985 --> 02:40:52,979
Humanity's savage nature
will inevitably lead to global annihilation.

1752
02:40:53,157 --> 02:40:55,955
So in order to save this planet...

1753
02:40:56,227 --> 02:40:58,286
...I had to trick it...

1754
02:40:58,663 --> 02:41:02,690
...with the greatest practical joke
in human history.

1755
02:41:02,967 --> 02:41:06,368
- Killing millions.
- To save billions.

1756
02:41:06,904 --> 02:41:08,872
A necessary crime.

1757
02:41:09,040 --> 02:41:11,201
You know we can't let you do that.

1758
02:41:12,643 --> 02:41:14,770
"Do that," Rorschach?

1759
02:41:14,946 --> 02:41:16,573
I'm not a comic-book villain.

1760
02:41:17,415 --> 02:41:19,679
Do you think
I'd explain my masterstroke to you...

1761
02:41:19,851 --> 02:41:24,015
...if there were even the slightest possibility
you could affect the outcome?

1762
02:41:26,757 --> 02:41:29,555
I triggered it 35 minutes ago.

1763
02:43:09,026 --> 02:43:12,018
Jesus Christ, Henry.

1764
02:43:12,196 --> 02:43:14,391
Why the hell
didn't we get a launch detection?

1765
02:43:16,300 --> 02:43:20,737
It's not the Soviets, sir.

1766
02:43:21,305 --> 02:43:24,468
Intel indicates the energy signature...

1767
02:43:24,642 --> 02:43:27,076
...was generated by...

1768
02:43:28,045 --> 02:43:30,479
...Dr. Manhattan.

1769
02:43:33,317 --> 02:43:34,875
Jon.

1770
02:43:37,888 --> 02:43:39,014
Interference.

1771
02:43:39,624 --> 02:43:41,524
Cataclysmic interference.

1772
02:43:51,235 --> 02:43:53,999
I can't believe it happened.

1773
02:43:55,006 --> 02:43:58,498
This wasn't caused by nuclear warheads.

1774
02:44:02,580 --> 02:44:03,877
It was me.

1775
02:44:05,916 --> 02:44:07,508
I...

1776
02:44:08,085 --> 02:44:09,109
...did this.

1777
02:44:09,754 --> 02:44:13,212
- What do you mean, you did this?
- Not directly.

1778
02:44:14,191 --> 02:44:16,887
It was made to look like I did it.

1779
02:44:19,930 --> 02:44:21,363
Adrian.

1780
02:44:27,638 --> 02:44:29,629
Speak of the devil.

1781
02:44:32,777 --> 02:44:33,801
Jon...
I know.

1782
02:44:33,978 --> 02:44:36,139
Must stop him.
Killed Blake, killed millions.

1783
02:44:36,313 --> 02:44:37,644
Wait here.

1784
02:44:48,793 --> 02:44:51,159
Adrian, stop this.

1785
02:44:52,630 --> 02:44:54,495
The tachyons were clever...

1786
02:44:55,633 --> 02:44:59,967
...but even if I can't predict where you are,
I can turn the walls to glass.

1787
02:45:01,305 --> 02:45:03,773
I should thank you.

1788
02:45:04,942 --> 02:45:08,139
I'd almost forgotten the excitement
of not knowing...

1789
02:45:09,146 --> 02:45:12,138
<i>...the delights of uncertainty.</i>

1790
02:45:16,320 --> 02:45:17,981
Forgive me, girl.

1791
02:45:40,945 --> 02:45:42,640
You're such an asshole.

1792
02:46:16,580 --> 02:46:18,514
Veidt, you bastard.

1793
02:46:18,682 --> 02:46:21,150
- Lf you've hurt her, I'll...
- Dan...

1794
02:46:22,887 --> 02:46:27,483
...grow up. My new world
demands less obvious heroism.

1795
02:46:27,658 --> 02:46:29,649
Your...

1796
02:46:29,827 --> 02:46:34,787
...schoolboy heroics are redundant.
What have they achieved?

1797
02:46:36,400 --> 02:46:39,267
Failing to prevent Earth's salvation...

1798
02:46:40,237 --> 02:46:42,637
...is your only triumph.

1799
02:46:42,840 --> 02:46:44,740
I'm disappointed in you, Adrian.

1800
02:46:45,543 --> 02:46:49,035
I'm very disappointed.

1801
02:47:01,425 --> 02:47:04,588
Reassembling myself
was the first trick I learned.

1802
02:47:05,262 --> 02:47:07,662
It didn't kill Osterman.

1803
02:47:10,267 --> 02:47:12,633
Did you really think it would kill me?

1804
02:47:13,938 --> 02:47:17,101
I have walked across the surface
of the sun.

1805
02:47:17,608 --> 02:47:20,771
I have witnessed events
so tiny and so fast...

1806
02:47:20,945 --> 02:47:24,005
...they can hardly be said
to have occurred at all...

1807
02:47:24,181 --> 02:47:27,810
...but you, Adrian, you're just a man.

1808
02:47:28,953 --> 02:47:31,444
The world's smartest man...

1809
02:47:31,755 --> 02:47:34,189
...poses no more threat to me...

1810
02:47:34,358 --> 02:47:37,486
...than does its smartest termite.

1811
02:47:39,763 --> 02:47:41,230
What's that?

1812
02:47:41,632 --> 02:47:43,497
Another ultimate weapon?

1813
02:47:44,134 --> 02:47:45,863
Yes.

1814
02:47:47,471 --> 02:47:48,938
You could say that.

1815
02:47:52,476 --> 02:47:54,410
<i>came under attack.</i>

1816
02:47:55,246 --> 02:47:58,579
<i>Millions of lives were suddenly ended...</i>

1817
02:47:58,916 --> 02:48:04,115
<i>...in an act of evil
perpetrated by Dr. Manhattan himself.</i>

1818
02:48:05,923 --> 02:48:09,859
<i>Since the attacks,
I have been in constant contact...</i>

1819
02:48:10,027 --> 02:48:13,019
<i>...with the premier of the U.S.S.R.</i>

1820
02:48:13,430 --> 02:48:16,263
<i>Putting aside our past differences...</i>

1821
02:48:16,600 --> 02:48:18,761
<i>...we have both pledged to unite...</i>

1822
02:48:19,103 --> 02:48:22,436
<i>...against this common enemy.</i>

1823
02:48:22,940 --> 02:48:24,931
<i>With the rest of the world...</i>

1824
02:48:25,376 --> 02:48:27,401
<i>...we will prevail.</i>

1825
02:48:29,947 --> 02:48:32,939
<i>This is a day we shall never forget.</i>

1826
02:48:33,117 --> 02:48:37,315
<i>And yet we go forward
to defend the human race...</i>

1827
02:48:37,488 --> 02:48:42,118
<i>...and all that is good
and just in our world.</i>

1828
02:48:43,460 --> 02:48:47,692
<i>Thank you. God bless us all.</i>

1829
02:48:48,065 --> 02:48:49,862
Do you see?

1830
02:48:52,069 --> 02:48:54,537
Two superpowers retreating from war.

1831
02:48:56,140 --> 02:48:58,574
I've saved the earth from hell.

1832
02:48:58,742 --> 02:49:00,710
We both have.

1833
02:49:01,178 --> 02:49:03,373
This is as much your victory as it is mine.

1834
02:49:08,185 --> 02:49:09,675
Now we can return...

1835
02:49:11,121 --> 02:49:12,679
...do what we were meant to.

1836
02:49:12,856 --> 02:49:15,825
We were meant to exact justice.

1837
02:49:16,160 --> 02:49:19,493
- Everyone's gonna know what you've done.
- Will they?

1838
02:49:19,663 --> 02:49:24,464
By exposing me, you would sacrifice
the peace so many died for today.

1839
02:49:24,635 --> 02:49:28,071
- Peace based on a lie.
- But peace...

1840
02:49:28,238 --> 02:49:30,433
...nonetheless.
- He's right.

1841
02:49:31,008 --> 02:49:34,967
Exposing Adrian would only doom the world
to nuclear destruction again.

1842
02:49:35,145 --> 02:49:38,012
No. We can't do this.

1843
02:49:38,182 --> 02:49:39,945
On Mars...

1844
02:49:41,452 --> 02:49:43,283
...you taught me the value of life.

1845
02:49:44,254 --> 02:49:46,688
If we hope to preserve it here...

1846
02:49:47,491 --> 02:49:49,516
...we must remain silent.

1847
02:49:53,364 --> 02:49:55,298
Keep your own secrets.

1848
02:50:02,172 --> 02:50:03,366
Don't even think about it.

1849
02:50:05,976 --> 02:50:07,705
Rorschach.

1850
02:50:09,480 --> 02:50:11,004
Wait.

1851
02:50:12,049 --> 02:50:14,142
Never compromise.

1852
02:50:14,518 --> 02:50:17,385
Not even in the face of armageddon.

1853
02:50:17,788 --> 02:50:20,780
That's always been the difference
between us, Daniel.

1854
02:50:31,835 --> 02:50:35,362
I've made myself feel every death...

1855
02:50:36,840 --> 02:50:42,745
...see every innocent face
I've murdered to save humanity.

1856
02:50:48,318 --> 02:50:52,015
- You understand, don't you?
Without condoning...

1857
02:50:53,690 --> 02:50:55,590
...or condemning...

1858
02:50:59,997 --> 02:51:01,931
...I understand.

1859
02:51:09,339 --> 02:51:12,467
Out of my way. People have to be told.

1860
02:51:13,343 --> 02:51:15,277
You know I can't let you do that.

1861
02:51:16,513 --> 02:51:19,505
Suddenly you discover humanity?

1862
02:51:20,951 --> 02:51:22,782
Convenient.

1863
02:51:31,495 --> 02:51:36,057
If you'd cared from the start,
none of this would have happened.

1864
02:51:39,837 --> 02:51:42,806
I can change almost anything...

1865
02:51:47,377 --> 02:51:49,709
...but I can't change human nature.

1866
02:51:51,048 --> 02:51:54,449
Of course
you must protect Veidt's new utopia.

1867
02:51:55,719 --> 02:51:59,052
What's one more body
amongst foundations?

1868
02:52:05,229 --> 02:52:07,094
Well, what are you waiting for?

1869
02:52:10,567 --> 02:52:12,398
Do it.

1870
02:52:18,509 --> 02:52:19,533
Do it!

1871
02:52:22,246 --> 02:52:25,613
No!

1872
02:52:43,100 --> 02:52:48,868
<i>I'm leaving this galaxy
for one a little less complicated.</i>

1873
02:52:49,039 --> 02:52:51,530
<i>I thought you said you cared
about life again.</i>

1874
02:52:51,708 --> 02:52:53,107
<i>I do.</i>

1875
02:52:54,444 --> 02:52:57,345
I think maybe I'll create some.

1876
02:53:01,451 --> 02:53:03,783
Goodbye, Laurie.

1877
02:53:39,022 --> 02:53:40,182
Come on.

1878
02:53:42,659 --> 02:53:44,251
Come on!

1879
02:53:48,665 --> 02:53:49,996
Dan...

1880
02:53:50,467 --> 02:53:53,231
...a world united and at peace.

1881
02:53:54,104 --> 02:53:55,298
There had to be sacrifice.

1882
02:53:55,472 --> 02:53:59,841
No! You haven't idealized mankind,
you've deformed it.

1883
02:54:00,010 --> 02:54:01,773
You've mutilated it.

1884
02:54:02,145 --> 02:54:04,306
That's your legacy.

1885
02:54:12,856 --> 02:54:15,654
That's the real practical joke.

1886
02:55:08,245 --> 02:55:12,238
<i>we repeat, there is
nothing wrong with your television set.</i>

1887
02:55:12,416 --> 02:55:15,874
<i>You are about to participate
in a great adventure.</i>

1888
02:55:16,053 --> 02:55:19,216
<i>You are about to experience
the awe and mystery...</i>

1889
02:55:19,389 --> 02:55:25,191
<i>...which reaches from the inner mind
to the outer limits.</i>

1890
02:55:26,396 --> 02:55:28,591
Sure you don't want a drink?

1891
02:55:29,599 --> 02:55:30,623
I'm okay.

1892
02:55:31,702 --> 02:55:32,930
Cheers.

1893
02:55:34,371 --> 02:55:37,499
There's something I need
to get off my chest.

1894
02:55:38,775 --> 02:55:41,266
I know that Eddie Blake was my father.

1895
02:55:44,281 --> 02:55:46,044
Laurel.

1896
02:55:47,050 --> 02:55:49,382
What you must think of me.

1897
02:55:50,220 --> 02:55:52,745
I'm sorry I never told you.

1898
02:55:52,923 --> 02:55:54,720
I should have...

1899
02:55:54,891 --> 02:55:59,021
...but I don't know, I just felt ashamed.
I felt stupid.

1900
02:55:59,196 --> 02:56:01,130
It doesn't matter.

1901
02:56:01,965 --> 02:56:07,232
People's lives take them strange places.
They do strange things...

1902
02:56:07,804 --> 02:56:10,739
...and, well,
sometimes they can't talk about them.

1903
02:56:10,907 --> 02:56:13,239
I know how that is...

1904
02:56:13,977 --> 02:56:16,571
...but I just want you to know...

1905
02:56:17,147 --> 02:56:19,980
...that you never did anything wrong
by me.

1906
02:56:24,154 --> 02:56:28,420
You asked me why I wasn't mad at him.

1907
02:56:29,993 --> 02:56:32,484
Because he gave me you.

1908
02:56:37,501 --> 02:56:38,593
Thanks, Mom.

1909
02:56:41,338 --> 02:56:43,135
I love you.

1910
02:56:50,680 --> 02:56:54,878
- Hello, Miss Jupiter.
- Oh, Sally, please.

1911
02:56:56,520 --> 02:57:01,116
Excuse me. Gotta go freshen up.
I'll be right back.

1912
02:57:11,635 --> 02:57:15,799
- So how's it going up here?
- Good. How's it going down there?

1913
02:57:15,972 --> 02:57:19,464
Good. I think I've got everything working.

1914
02:57:19,643 --> 02:57:24,273
All of Archie's systems are upgraded.
Finished the tinkering for now...

1915
02:57:24,448 --> 02:57:26,678
...so all we gotta do is take her out.

1916
02:57:26,850 --> 02:57:29,910
Well, that sounds like a date.

1917
02:57:41,231 --> 02:57:43,495
Are we gonna be all right?

1918
02:57:45,569 --> 02:57:49,869
Long as people think Jon's
still watching us, we'll be all right...

1919
02:57:50,073 --> 02:57:51,938
...in the end.

1920
02:57:53,577 --> 02:57:55,738
I know what Jon would say:

1921
02:57:55,912 --> 02:57:57,937
Nothing ends.

1922
02:57:59,850 --> 02:58:02,444
Nothing ever ends.

1923
02:58:49,799 --> 02:58:53,565
Seymour, we got nothing
to write about anymore.

1924
02:58:53,737 --> 02:58:55,102
Everyone in the country...

1925
02:58:55,272 --> 02:58:57,536
...every country in the world
are holding hands...

1926
02:58:57,707 --> 02:59:00,972
...and singing songs
about peace and love.

1927
02:59:01,478 --> 02:59:04,345
It's like living in a goddamn
global hippie commune.

1928
02:59:04,514 --> 02:59:08,450
Well, Ronald Reagan says he's gonna
be running for president in '88.

1929
02:59:08,618 --> 02:59:10,449
We could run a piece on that.

1930
02:59:10,620 --> 02:59:13,783
Seymour, we don't dignify absurdities
with coverage.

1931
02:59:13,957 --> 02:59:17,791
This is still America, damn it.
Who wants a cowboy in the White House?

1932
02:59:18,528 --> 02:59:22,760
Okay. I could look for something
in the crank file.

1933
02:59:22,933 --> 02:59:24,525
Crank file.

1934
02:59:24,701 --> 02:59:26,692
Whatever. Take some initiative.

1935
02:59:26,870 --> 02:59:29,498
Run whatever you like.
I leave it entirely in your hands.

1936
02:59:36,012 --> 02:59:40,711
<i>Rorschach's journal, October 12th, 1955.</i>

1937
02:59:40,884 --> 02:59:45,344
<i>Tonight, a comedian died in New York.</i>
