We're Not Programmed -- We're PEOPLE. Understand?



Moon - Truth - Sam talking to Gerty

G.E.R.T.Y :
Hello, Sam. 
Sam, is everything OK?


Sam Bell :
Yeah!
  
Yeah, we had a fight.
Me and the other guy, the other...

He's very angry, you know?  
You know what he did?
  
He flipped my entire model over!  
You know how much work I put into that thing?

  G.E.R.T.Y :
938 hours.

Sam Bell :  
938 hours. Yeah, exactly. 
938 hours, really?

  G.E.R.T.Y :
Approximately.

  Sam Bell :
He's got a problem.
He scares me, G.E.R.T.Y.

G.E.R.T.Y :  
What is it about Sam that scares you?

  Sam Bell :
The Guy flies off the handle.  
I see it now. I see what Tess was talking about.

 
I never told you this, G.E.R.T.Y, but she...
She— She left me. Tess left me.
  
For 6 months. 
She moved back in with her parents.

  G.E.R.T.Y :
I know.

Sam Bell :  
She gave me a second chance.
I promised here that I'd change.

G.E.R.T.Y :
You have changed, Sam.

  Sam Bell :
Hey, G.E.R.T.Y, since I've been up here,
I've sent Tess...
  
I've sent her over a hundred video messages.
  
Where did those messages go?  
Did they ever reach her?

 G.E.R.T.Y : 
Sam, I can only account 
for what occurs on the base.

  Sam Bell :
What about the messages she sent to me?

  G.E.R.T.Y :
Sam, I can only account 
for what occurs on the base.

  Sam Bell :
G.E.R.T.Y... G.E.R.T.Y?
Am I really a clone?

  G.E.R.T.Y :
When you first arrived at Sarang,
there was a small crash.

You woke up in the infirmary. 
You suffered minor brain damage and memory loss.

  
I kept you under observation
and ran some tests.

Sam Bell :  
I remember, yea, 
I remember that...

G.E.R.T.Y :  
Sam, there was no crash.
You were being awakened.


It is Standard Procedure 
for all new clones to be given tests to establish 
mental stability and general physical health.

  
Genetic abnormalities and 
minor duplication errors in the DNA
can have considerable impact on...

  Sam Bell :
What about Tess? 
What about Eve?

G.E.R.T.Y :
They are Memory Implants, Sam.
  
Uploaded, edited memories
of the original Sam Bell.
  
I'm very sorry. 

  
Sam, it's been several hours since your last meal.
Can I prepare you something?
