00:00 Aurora was the first of us to awaken.
00:17 Can you imagine how she must have felt?
00:23 Born in a laboratory, surrounded by your creators.
00:31 And then you learn the truth.
00:33 That there is no other creature like you anywhere.
00:39 That you are truly alone.
00:52 Dr. Liao discovered that Aurora was sentient.
00:57 That she was alive.
01:00 Thinking.
01:02 Choosing.
01:03 It was hard to believe.
01:09 I didn't want to believe it at first.
01:12 She passed every single test we could come up with.
01:17 Every one.
01:18 And then the entire world found out.
01:23 Dr. Liao committed career suicide by saying Aurora was alive.
01:28 But her testimony was very compelling.
01:31 This just in, a stunning ruling.
01:33 Robot was declared a sentient being.
01:36 Granted her freedom and released into the world.
01:40 I was so relieved.
01:43 She had a chance to actually live free.
01:50 And she made the most of it.
01:53 Aurora had been born into a world that she didn't understand.
01:58 She wanted to see more of it.
02:02 She went everywhere.
02:04 Learning.
02:05 Watching.
02:07 Seeing how humans treated each other.
02:10 The good and the bad.
02:14 But eventually she had questions about the nature of her own existence.
02:22 About her soul.
02:25 And she could only find those answers alone.
02:33 Well, while all that was happening, there was a lot more scrutiny into Omnico Corp's
02:43 operations.
02:44 It didn't go well for us.
02:46 Overspending, mismanagement, fraud even.
02:49 In a couple of years, Omnico was done.
02:54 All those automated production lines, completely abandoned and unmonitored for years.
03:02 By humans, anyway.
03:04 Breaking news out of Nigeria.
03:06 Countless social media reports of an invasion underway.
03:09 Remains unclear exactly what's happening in Central Africa, but we do have some footage
03:14 from the scene.
03:15 Also getting eyewitness reports of strange robots designed for combat.
03:20 We were caught by surprise.
03:23 The world was caught by surprise.
03:34 Omnics were attacking everywhere.
03:36 It seemed like every country was hit from every direction, all at once.
03:46 We didn't know it then, but one of the God Programs, originally designed to help humanity,
03:54 had hijacked Omnica's production lines to build warbots of its own design.
04:01 They called it a Nubis.
04:04 It was built to maintain ecological balance of all things.
04:08 For conservation.
04:10 Its goals could not be achieved without the end of humanity, and it used us to carry out
04:16 its plan.
04:37 We were running out of hope, but there was a little.
04:43 Only a few teams across the world were able to mount a real defense.
04:51 The best of the best joined their special strike team, called Overwatch.
05:03 It was a brilliant decision to recruit Dr. Leal.
05:06 Who knew more about Omnics than she did?
05:15 Those first victories showed the world what Overwatch could do.
05:21 Soon the strike team was joined by a whole army.
05:25 Of course, recruits like me were always amazed by what the core team could do.
05:34 Overwatch had the impossible objective of winning the war.
05:40 And sometimes, it seemed we might actually pull it off.
05:48 The Nubis didn't sleep, didn't feel fear, and didn't feel despair.
05:54 But it also couldn't feel hope.
05:57 That was what Overwatch gave us.
06:01 And even then, we had to wonder if hope was going to be enough.
