Speaker 1 (00:00):
Tomorrow's Monsters is a production of My Heart Radio, Flynn
Picture Company, Psycopia Pictures, and Upper Room Productions. Mankind, We're criminals.
First we took fire from the gods. It gave us warmth, light,
(00:21):
the power to create and to destroy. It allowed us
to venture into unchartered territories again and again, like thieves
in the dark, plundering every resource we could. But with
each new horizon also comes cautionary tales, tales of spirits
(00:43):
monsters that lie ahead. Even early European maps warned of
mythical creatures of great beasts inhabiting unexplored locations, forbidden zones,
where aliens dragons, which is ghosts lurk in the dark.
But it never stops us. And today we seem capable
(01:06):
of infinite expansion, expansion outward, expansion in business, and of
the market's expansion, of our lives and of ourselves destiny
made manifest. Today mankind has become godlike in its ability
to boldly go. But for all of this, there is
(01:29):
still a universe that remains uncharted, the universe of the
human mind. And just as the ancient maps once warned,
there'd be monsters. Yeah, I don't know what they is.
(02:30):
Max's comatose, passed out in the back seat. He's been
out ever since Truthsdale and I throws him with the
kill switch. I myself, I keep deeping in and out
between reality and dreams, the prisoner and the paston, and
(02:55):
I don't know how much longer I can stay conscious. Bro, bro,
come on, man, get up, you got this? I don't
know all right? You wanted to tell you some jokes? Definitely? No,
all right. Look, why was the Scarecrow awarded the Nobel Prize?
Hunt done up? Because because he was outstanding in his field.
(03:20):
M hmm that's terrible. Yeah right, So why are you laughing?
My con I'm sorry. I should have protected you. It's
(03:47):
it's not your fault. Oh all right, man, it's time
to close your eyes. It's time to let go. Everything's
gonna be okay, Jack, Everything's gonna be okay. I only
(04:09):
pieced together what happened to me long after I found
Jack's recordings. I've been sifting through all of it hundreds
of hours. I found this one from January nine, two am. Hey, Hey,
(04:30):
is anybody there. I'm locked in. Hello, I'm locked in, Hello,
don't fucking move David, David truth though, Okay, hold on now,
we can work this out. You don't have to do this, David. Please.
(04:51):
You don't have to be next course point anymore. You
understand it. And I'm David wait wait wh m? What
did you miss? Who are you waiting for? David? Why?
(05:14):
I must do alive? What do you want, David? Do
you want? I don't know what happened. Okay, he was
supposed to be the last one, but they changed the
(05:36):
deal against It's okay. I heard what he said. Hm hmm, Finn,
when you were talking on the roof, I heard him.
(05:56):
What did you hear about the switch? Look, you'll switch
to make it stop? Is it true? Yes? I have it.
I can make it stop. But in the meantime, if
(06:19):
you don't know whether to kill me or not yet,
can you please lower the gun until you've made up
your mind. H Okay, I'm gonna reach into my pocket. Okay,
it's gonna reach into my pocket. Slide it's it's it's
(06:42):
right here in this case? How does it work? According
to Finn, it's Cultridge contains happiness for the little bugs
they put in your head, the ones they are using
to control you. According to Finn's need been tested on rights.
I have no idea what it will do to a
human mind. Did it work? Did it work on the rights? Yes? Yes?
(07:08):
How do I know this isn't just another contact lock?
Why should I trust you? Okay? What do you have
to lose? Listen? Michael, Michael Kobin what about him? He's
my brother, Mike. Yeah, you both got pulled into this thing, David,
(07:33):
against your wheels. You've got pulled in because you were
looking for peace from the sheet in your head, just
like Michael and me and David. I'm here to stop
him before they get to more people, just like they
go to my brother, just like they go to you,
just like they go to me. I've got the tidy
machines in my brain too. I'm not different from you.
(07:53):
So yeah, if you want to be free of these
people and the things that they make you do, that
this antidote is the only way that's life in made it.
He knew that this was the only way to stop them,
and right now this is the only way either of
us are gonna get what we want. Are you listening
to me? I didn't kill him, m hm, your brother.
(08:21):
I didn't kill him. The others I'm not so sure about. Okay,
understand that he is not your phone, none, it is.
It's your phone. There's only two cars, is just one
(08:48):
for you and one for Max? Who the hell is Max?
I think you know him as Bed, but there's only
two doses? So what about you? Here's something the old man. Now.
But if I give you this, I'm gonna need you
to do something for me. What had been? Tell you
(09:11):
what way is orders to stop you and bring you
to him alive? Okay, Okay, that's good, that's good. That's good.
Then this work. I need you to rough me on.
You can't hold back, you can't fake it. It's it's
gonna be real. You've gotta make me bleed. It's the
only way I'll be able to get close enough to
(09:32):
Ben to dose him. Now, look, I'm gonna need your help.
You need to help me. First to kill SWI No, no, no,
I can't do that. The began first enough, O come
on hit me earth t h m hm, go on in. Yeah.
(10:28):
When the kill switch hit me, my brain stopped. Jackie Paul,
he's by, let's get him, and I was back on
(10:53):
the frozen lake. Take another step, looking at myself through
my brother's eyes, and then suddenly I was pulled right
back into my own body. That was how Ben died, finally,
(11:19):
fully extracted by fire when Ice couldn't do it to him.
I lived, of course, to finally mourn him, him who
had haunted me for so long. The story didn't end
there for Jack either. It was to get much worse.
(11:42):
There were eighteen more hours of audio. It's mostly grunting
and breathing and Jack muttering to himself, but he got
us out of Virginia at around hour eleven. His speech
became disjointed. He had been rationing his shut eye for days,
and what little was didn't last him very long. But
(12:02):
he kept going as far as he could, and then
right before he passed out, he said a course for
a new location, and he spoke once more, Michael, I'm
sorry I should have predicted you. Okay, it's not youthful,
(12:27):
and then he was out. I woke up at an
abandoned campsite in the Rockies. I had no idea why
we were there. What possessed Jack to choose this isolated
place to guide us. I didn't know at the time
what significance the place held for him, but I eventually
(12:47):
uncovered it. This was the place where he and his
mother found Michael, his brother, after Michael's own father abandoned him.
I can imagine the boy as Jack came upon him,
hungry and cold, terrified. I imagine the impact that would have.
(13:13):
It's the sort of thing that haunts him. Man. If
I was him, I might have killed me. But he didn't.
So one good turn deserves another next course. Stocks surged
again today after an announcement of a multi billion dollar
contract to provide enhanced health services to US armed forces
(13:36):
and regional commands in the Middle East and Asia, more
than a share after the company went public last week
at the annual CEES conference in Las Vegas. We've made
an incredible deal to move the world forward. We planned
to make good on it. Where is my schooler now?
We haven't seen him at all since the Yes, are
the rumors of his disappearance true? I assure you at
(14:00):
Fuller is fine. He's actually working behind the curtain to
implement these exciting new upgrades to our product. That was
a lie, of course. No one's heard anything from me
since Arlington. I have blood on my hands now. I've
been holding up here at the tilehouse for over a
(14:21):
week until I can figure out my next move. And
Cass I'm not sure she even knows I'm still alive,
but she sent me videos of myself doing these unspeakable things,
(14:42):
horrifying things. I have no memory of it. What are
you doing? The idea that I am the same person
has this monstrous figure in the footage, that I could
have the capacity for such savagery and such lack of remorse,
(15:06):
I cannot reconcile. It wouldn't serve cast to throw me
to the wolves just now, though stock valuation would plunge.
Now there's those videos where a message should I ever
resurface in the world again as myself, if they were
a warning. Jack's vitals are healthy, but there's no change
(15:33):
to his mental state. I'm trying to tech the tech here.
I'm trying to reverse engineer with finnmates so I can
bring Jack back to His brain waves suggests something akin
to a coma, but they do occasionally flicker. I'm not sure,
but I'd like to think he's dreaming, and I'd like
(15:55):
to think that he's dreaming about something decent for once.
But I'm smart enough to know better. It may be
too late for the world. Jack finn Connolly will be
greatly missed. He was the heart of Next Corp, a maverick,
always striving to better himself and his world. We are
(16:19):
proud to carry out Finn Connolly's important work. Soon enough,
the military will create their next level super soldier, unaffected
by sleep or fear, doesn't even think his own thoughts,
just driven and aggressive and pointed at America's enemies. This
is a tribute to our brave soldiers. Because our nation's
(16:42):
armed forces will be enhanced, fully functioning, mentally sharp, and
immune to the stress of combat. Who's going to be
factories full of workers who don't need any rest that
worked twenty four hours a day making our flags and
tinsel or fireworks ball ms hives that the powerful sit
above and manage remotely. Our factory workers will greet their
(17:07):
shifts with fresh eyes, well rested, and eager to work.
A whole world that doesn't close its eyes, a world
that keeps its hands busy, and men like me who
will profit as the rest of humanity toils on. A
new world full of hope, full of promise, full of
wide eyes and bright smiles. A world that funnels its energy. Up, Up,
(17:32):
ever up. This is the dawn of a new era
in human history, and we are thrilled to bear the torch.
It is time for the world that Dr Walter Fuller imagined,
that Max Fuller invented, It's time for humankind two point.
(17:58):
I wanted to give mankind into new gifts from the gods.
I wanted to make people's lives more tolerable, more satisfying.
I wanted to take away some of our suffering, and
I thought I figured out how to do it. A
human who doesn't grow tired, we're scared, lonely. A human
(18:22):
without weakness, without flaws. Jack hut Hey, Hey, it's okay,
it's okay, Jack, you're okay. M Yeah, it's me. I'm
(18:49):
back here. Drink easy easy easy, shrip is slow mhmm, okay,
I'm gonna be thirty three hours. You crashed during a
(19:12):
painful withdrawal. It was too much. You drove off in
neurological cliff and your mind shut down. You've been commentose, Jack, Christ,
Where where are we A safe place? A safe please?
So it worked, Yeah, it worked. He saved me, Jack,
(19:38):
you brought me back. But if the if you could
have gotten to me sooner? Maybe what did you say
the deal? It was already done before you arrived. Shut.
(19:59):
I isn't mine anymore, it's there's now to do what
they will? Wait? Wait wait wait Jack, No, no, we
can still stop it. We have to stop it before
it's too late, before more people get hurt. Yes, yes
we do, but not like this. You almost die. Jack.
(20:22):
You need to get your strength back, your wets and wolf.
Then we find a solution. Then we fix it. Oh,
fix it? Did you hear yourself? You can't fix it.
You can't fix everything. Wake up, You're not good. What
(20:53):
what are you dreaming about? What? Just now? You kept
repeating the same thing over and over again. I kept saying,
not human, not human? Not human? Why are you saying that?
(21:17):
I was dreaming about my brother Michael. How was trying
to help him, trying to bring him back to life.
Even told him we could fix him, make him better
(21:37):
this time, stronger, fixed the floors. But he refused. He
kept saying, it's not a mistake, m It's no mistake.
I don't understand what's not a mistake us? Every one
(21:59):
of us flaws a limitations are pain, suffering, fear of weaknesses.
He said. We are fragile for a reason. How vulnerability
is not a glitch. We are not machines to be upgraded.
(22:22):
We are flawed by design. That's what Michael was trying
to tell me. That human without flaws, it's not not human. Yeah,
are we gonna do? You already did it? M everything?
(22:49):
We need all the evidence, It's all right here, hundreds
of hours of evidence right here on this hard drive.
The black Man else, the payoffs, the deleted data, the murders,
and all the cover ups. There's enough to show the
(23:09):
whole world it's really happening. Enough to clear your name too.
Well about you? What about me? If next school goes
up in for names, you'll burn two mugs for what
you did, for what Bay died. Maybe there's another way, Jack,
I've played the game through already. I've already thought of
(23:32):
all the possible moves on the board, and I've considered
every outcome. I was holding out hope that there was
another way, a move I hadn't thought of. But there
it is not. There is only one solution that clears
your name and hopefully puts a stop to all of this,
(23:55):
everything that's happened, and everything that is about to happen next.
It's all because of me, Jack, all because of something
I created. So this is the only option that makes sense.
In order to win, I have to lose. You won't
(24:18):
be able to hide. The mob will drive you out
of your castle into the night with torches and pitchforks.
You will burn. Hm. So let it be me, Let
me be the monster. M m hm, Private Drake, Yes, sir,
(25:22):
Lieutenant Sir Eddie's private, take a seat. Nurse Jones will
administer the treatment. Lieutenant Sir, I actually right back, Um,
take your shirt off. Yes, man, are you holding up? Yeah?
I always use more sleep. Well, then you came to
(25:42):
the wrong place. Private, don't worry. It's a simple procedure.
At least that's what they told me to say. What
is this for? They say it helps to keep you
in sync with the platoon. They say it makes you
feel like a wolf. So I'm gonna be howling at
(26:03):
the moon or something maybe something like that. Well, Um, yeah,
I didn't know. I mean I thought that this was
this was a volunteer program, this procedure. I mean, but
I didn't actually volunteer, Okay, like I didn't sign any
do you want to speak to the lieutenant. Well, I
mean because I thought I could just you know, do
my time here and get my degree. But I didn't realize, Lieutenant,
(26:23):
there's no need to lieutenant. No, no, no no, I mean,
I just a problem here. The private has a question, Sir,
A question, Sir. I wasn't aware that this was required.
This was all spelled out in your enlistment contract. Private, Well,
I didn't realize. I mean, so you're saying I have
(26:46):
to take this the mind out because I don't understand
if this is mandatory for all recruits entering boot camp,
that means you, Private, okay? And what if I what's that?
I mean, what if I want to opt out? Sir?
(27:08):
Opt out? Simple two years confinement, no pay, followed by
this honorable discharge. I guess and speak out, Private, I
should I guess my ashes military property now, sir, affirmative, Private,
All infantry will undergo this procedure. How else can I
(27:32):
keep you in lockstep four hundred miles keep your ass
alive too, Nurse, please continue, don't worry. I said, it's
a session procedure. Hold this to your eye. Yes you're ready.
(27:56):
I don't guess I have a choice, to do do It

I'm trying to reverse engineer with finnmates so I can
bring Jack back to His brain waves suggests something akin
to a coma, but they do occasionally flicker. I'm not sure,
but I'd like to think he's dreaming, and I'd like
(15:55):
to think that he's dreaming about something decent for once.
But I'm smart enough to know better. It may be
too late for the world. Jack finn Connolly will be
greatly missed. He was the heart of Next Corp, a maverick,
always striving to better himself and his world. We are
(16:19):
proud to carry out Finn Connolly's important work. Soon enough,
the military will create their next level super soldier, unaffected
by sleep or fear, doesn't even think his own thoughts,
just driven and aggressive and pointed at America's enemies. This
is a tribute to our brave soldiers. Because our nation's
(16:42):
armed forces will be enhanced, fully functioning, mentally sharp, and
immune to the stress of combat. Who's going to be
factories full of workers who don't need any rest that
worked twenty four hours a day making our flags and
tinsel or fireworks ball ms hives that the powerful sit
above and manage remotely. Our factory workers will greet their
(17:07):
shifts with fresh eyes, well rested, and eager to work.
A whole world that doesn't close its eyes, a world
that keeps its hands busy, and men like me who
will profit as the rest of humanity toils on. A
new world full of hope, full of promise, full of
wide eyes and bright smiles. A world that funnels its energy. Up, Up,
(17:32):
ever up. This is the dawn of a new era
in human history, and we are thrilled to bear the torch.
It is time for the world that Dr Walter Fuller imagined,
that Max Fuller invented, It's time for humankind two point.
(17:58):
I wanted to give mankind into new gifts from the gods.
I wanted to make people's lives more tolerable, more satisfying.
I wanted to take away some of our suffering, and
I thought I figured out how to do it. A
human who doesn't grow tired, we're scared, lonely. A human
(18:22):
without weakness, without flaws. Jack hut Hey, Hey, it's okay,
it's okay, Jack, you're okay. M Yeah, it's me. I'm
(18:49):
back here. Drink easy easy easy, shrip is slow mhmm, okay,
I'm gonna be thirty three hours. You crashed during a
(19:12):
painful withdrawal. It was too much. You drove off in
neurological cliff and your mind shut down. You've been commentose, Jack, Christ,
Where where are we A safe place? A safe please?
So it worked, Yeah, it worked. He saved me, Jack,
(19:38):
you brought me back. But if the if you could
have gotten to me sooner? Maybe what did you say
the deal? It was already done before you arrived. Shut.
(19:59):
I isn't mine anymore, it's there's now to do what
they will? Wait? Wait wait wait Jack, No, no, we
can still stop it. We have to stop it before
it's too late, before more people get hurt. Yes, yes
we do, but not like this. You almost die. Jack.
(20:22):
You need to get your strength back, your wets and wolf.
Then we find a solution. Then we fix it. Oh,
fix it? Did you hear yourself? You can't fix it.
You can't fix everything. Wake up, You're not good. What
(20:53):
what are you dreaming about? What? Just now? You kept
repeating the same thing over and over again. I kept saying,
not human, not human? Not human? Why are you saying that?
(21:17):
I was dreaming about my brother Michael. How was trying
to help him, trying to bring him back to life.
Even told him we could fix him, make him better
(21:37):
this time, stronger, fixed the floors. But he refused. He
kept saying, it's not a mistake, m It's no mistake.
I don't understand what's not a mistake us? Every one
(21:59):
of us flaws a limitations are pain, suffering, fear of weaknesses.
He said. We are fragile for a reason. How vulnerability
is not a glitch. We are not machines to be upgraded.
(22:22):
We are flawed by design. That's what Michael was trying
to tell me. That human without flaws, it's not not human. Yeah,
are we gonna do? You already did it? M everything?
(22:49):
We need all the evidence, It's all right here, hundreds
of hours of evidence right here on this hard drive.
The black Man else, the payoffs, the deleted data, the murders,
and all the cover ups. There's enough to show the
(23:09):
whole world it's really happening. Enough to clear your name too.
Well about you? What about me? If next school goes
up in for names, you'll burn two mugs for what
you did, for what Bay died. Maybe there's another way, Jack,
I've played the game through already. I've already thought of
(23:32):
all the possible moves on the board, and I've considered
every outcome. I was holding out hope that there was
another way, a move I hadn't thought of. But there
it is not. There is only one solution that clears
your name and hopefully puts a stop to all of this,
(23:55):
everything that's happened, and everything that is about to happen next.
It's all because of me, Jack, all because of something
I created. So this is the only option that makes sense.
In order to win, I have to lose. You won't
(24:18):
be able to hide. The mob will drive you out
of your castle into the night with torches and pitchforks.
You will burn. Hm. So let it be me, Let
me be the monster. M m hm, Private Drake, Yes, sir,
(25:22):
Lieutenant Sir Eddie's private, take a seat. Nurse Jones will
administer the treatment. Lieutenant Sir, I actually right back, Um,
take your shirt off. Yes, man, are you holding up? Yeah?
I always use more sleep. Well, then you came to
(25:42):
the wrong place. Private, don't worry. It's a simple procedure.
At least that's what they told me to say. What
is this for? They say it helps to keep you
in sync with the platoon. They say it makes you
feel like a wolf. So I'm gonna be howling at
(26:03):
the moon or something maybe something like that. Well, Um, yeah,
I didn't know. I mean I thought that this was
this was a volunteer program, this procedure. I mean, but
I didn't actually volunteer, Okay, like I didn't sign any
do you want to speak to the lieutenant. Well, I
mean because I thought I could just you know, do
my time here and get my degree. But I didn't realize, Lieutenant,
(26:23):
there's no need to lieutenant. No, no, no no, I mean,
I just a problem here. The private has a question, Sir,
A question, Sir. I wasn't aware that this was required.
This was all spelled out in your enlistment contract. Private, Well,
I didn't realize. I mean, so you're saying I have
(26:46):
to take this the mind out because I don't understand
if this is mandatory for all recruits entering boot camp,
that means you, Private, okay? And what if I what's that?
I mean, what if I want to opt out? Sir?
(27:08):
Opt out? Simple two years confinement, no pay, followed by
this honorable discharge. I guess and speak out, Private, I
should I guess my ashes military property now, sir, affirmative, Private,
All infantry will undergo this procedure. How else can I
(27:32):
keep you in lockstep four hundred miles keep your ass
alive too, Nurse, please continue, don't worry. I said, it's
a session procedure. Hold this to your eye. Yes you're ready.
(27:56):
I don't guess I have a choice, to do do It
