MR. ROBOT GOOD OLD DAYS 1.

1 BLACK. 1

ELLIOT (V.O.)
There it is. After all
the searching, scraping, dusting,
that's all that's left.

ELLIOT (V.O.)
One line. The last line

INT. ELLIOT’S APARTMENT - MORNING

There is a line of morphine powder on the table. Elliot

comes closer to the table and

ELLIOT (V.O.)
The consequences of busting Vera,
meeting Mr. Robot, creating you,
everything till now, this moment.
I chose this. I chose all of this.

CUT TO BLACK.

2 INT. FSOCIETY ARCADE - DAY 2

Trenton, Darlene, Mobley and Romero stand beside Elliot,

who is sitting at his desk showing them information on his
computer.

ELLIOT
Data storage facilities like Steel
Mountain... it's linear-tape
open standard nine.
Temp value between 61 and 95.
Iron oxide in mag tape, it sticks
to polyurethane with a binder.
If HVAC conditions surpass the
ceiling, 95 degrees, polyurethane
adhesive mollifies and tape data
is unreadable.

They all look confused at Elliot, to which he sighs in

disappointment. He gets up , looks around and grabs a
cassete tape on the table. He removes all the tape and
throws it on heated cooktop, and it boils.

ELLIOT
This is what we're doing.

He grabs a circuit board and shows it to them.

ELLIOT
This circuit board, if installed
behind a thermostat, it lets us
plant an asymmetric backdoor then
create a VPN in the Steel Mountain
intranet.

DARLENE
Okay, we all know what a Raspberry
Pi is. what's your point?

MOBLEY
He wants to hack Steel Mountain's
climate control system. Raise the
facility's heat high enough to
destroy all the tapes.

ROMERO
And you think sticking this behind
the thermostat will do all that?

There's a second of silence. Elliot looks down, and starts walking.

ELLIOT
With the right software
specifically designed...

MOBLEY
I'll pull up my research
on the facility, start targeting
which thermostats
are the most accessible.

ROMERO
Yeah, well, that's all well and
good, but we still gotta get in
the damn joint.

Romero takes a map and rolls it open on the table, for

everyone to see.

ROMERO
There, deep into the
Adirondacks, in a 145-plus acre
former limestone mine.
Three-ton steel gates, 24/7
armed guards, closed circuit

ELLIOT
All we need is one security
flaw.

ROMERO
Look at this place, man, it was
built not to have any.

ELLIOT
I see about six walking around.

Elliot points them out, confidently. Romero stares

surprised.

Elliot turns around and starts coughing.

FADE TO BLACK AS TIME GOES BY.

ROMERO
Look, man. This plan's not
gonna work.

ELLIOT
Why? Why is that?

ROMERO
I was doin' recon on Steel
Mountain, came up with a
problem. A big fat one.

ELLIOT
I already told you, they have
their vulnerabilities.

ROMERO
So what happens after we hack
the New York facility?
Then we have to take a trip to
Nashville, then Colorado, then
San Jose, then goddamn
Tallahassee.

Elliot stares confused.

ROMERO
They're physically copying,
then shipping, all the analog
backups.
Five big-ass fortress-like
redundancies across the
country.

ROMERO
Now maybe, and it was always a big
maybe, we get into one, but no way
we get into all of 'em.
The minute we fry one facility
they'll patch every climate control
system they own. No matter how you
slice it, the plan is DOA.

The rooms becomes silent. Elliot walks around and

grabs one of the documents.

ELLIOT
It says this isn't happening until
April 1st. It's only the 29th.
Their tapes are still in the New
York Facility.
We still got a few days.
We have time.

The rooms goes back to silence. Romero shakes his head.

ROMERO
We're nowhere close to being ready.

ELLIOT
Well, we already have all the
necessary PDFs of the floor plans
to target the thermostats.
It'll require a little more
planning, but we can do it all
today, and we go tomorrow.
(He coughs)
ELLIOT (V.O)
Shit. This withdraw is killing me.
I need to be ready for tomorrow.
