Quotes
Will Caster: [Last Lines] I'll never let you go.

Max Waters: This thing is like any intelligence. It needs to grow, to advance. Right now it's settling somewhere it thinks it's safe from outside threats. Somewhere its massive appetite for power can be met. But it will want more than that. After a while survival won't be enough. It will expand, evolve, influence - perhaps the entire world.

Will: Look at the sky. The clouds. We're healing the ecosystem. not harming it. Particles join the air, building themselves out of pollutant. Forests can be regrown. Water so pure, you can drink out of any river. This is your dream.

Q
What does the last jardim scene represents?
A
It seems that it represents that Will did manage to save it's advanced technology nanobots. The water shows some substance... so Will did overcome the virus. I believe he actually knew everything the virus would do.
Q
How did Max upload virus in Evelyn? Did he have access to Nano Technology?
A
He used nanobots he infected with the virus. He recovered them from the contractor guy that was trapped after the raid that also helped Evelyn escape.
