40. Get away from my ship!

41. This is territory of the People's Republic Of Korea!

42. Get away from my ship!

43. What do you want here?

44. Don't shoot.

45. You are trespassing!

46. - We just came— - Step back!

47. What are you after?

48. You will not take my ship!

49. Stay back!

50. Stay back!

51. Madam President, the vice president is here to see you.

52. Send him in.

53. Hello, Jim.

54. Madam President.

55. After yesterday's statement,

56. you need to know the reality of the situation.

57. Of course.

58. Talk of impeachment has been gaining a great deal of momentum.

59. Almost all Republicans in both houses of the Congress

60. are strongly in favor.

61. They feel betrayed, lied to.

62. I'm pretty sure being dishonest about my sexuality

63. falls short of high crimes and misdemeanors.

64. I think it would be wise to spare yourself and this country the humiliation

65. of a nasty impeachment proceeding and assured conviction in the Senate.

66. It takes a two-thirds vote.

67. With enough Democratic support, I could survive a trial in the Senate.

68. You wanna put your fate in the hands of a party

69. we've been fighting tooth and nail for the last two years?

70. What are you suggesting, Jim?

71. That you resign from office.

72. And save the Republican Party from an apocalypse in the next election.

73. And I'm sure you're ready and willing to replace me?

74. This has nothing to do with what I want. We are under assault.

75. I'm under assault.

76. I will do everything in my power to protect your legacy.

77. I assure you of that.

78. You don't give a shit about my legacy.

79. Or me.

80. I know for a fact you're already planning

81. to support the Speaker's bill to defund NASA.

82. Well, I'm sorry to state the obvious,

83. but if you haven't noticed, Mars is an abject disaster.

84. It has been a circus from the start.

85. First Will Tyler, then this Russian love child.

86. Not to mention the fact that seven people have died.

87. We didn't do these things because they are easy,

88. but because they are hard.

89. I won't allow you to destroy everything we've worked so hard to build.

90. And I won't allow you to destroy the Republican Party.

91. Maybe it needs a little destroying.

92. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have work to do.

93. Molly. Hi. It's Karen.

94. Wayne got stuck at a student conference thingy.

95. Feel free to wait.

96. - Okay. - Have a seat.

97. Or not.

98. I don't care.

99. Wow, Molly. This painting is fantastic.

100. Those are Wayne's over there.

101. Okay. I can't do this. I can't focus.

102. I can feel your anxiety from here.

103. - Okay. I can go if you'd like, and— - Cough it up. What's the issue?

104. If it's okay, I would rather just talk to Wayne about it.

105. Trust me. I'd rather you talk to Wayne too.

106. But I'm here and you're here. So, what's the problem?

107. Okay.

108. I work at Helios with Dev Ayesa, and I am—

109. COO. Yep, Wayne told me. Cut to the meat.

110. - Okay. The meat. - The point.

111. Yes.

112. The board came to me and asked me to be CEO.

113. - This is the problem? - Yes.

114. Dev is CEO. He founded Helios.

115. He was the one who brought me in

116. after everything that happened with Polaris and—

117. So you feel like you owe him?

118. Yes. I do owe him.

119. - Do you want it? - That's beside the point.

120. It's exactly the point. Do you want it or not?

121. - Yes. I do. I do want it. But I— - So you remember Apollo 15?

122. - How could I forget? - So that was Gordo's flight.

123. Gordo had been training for more than a year to find ice on the moon.

124. And when Deke said that he was putting me on,

125. do you think I hemmed and hawed?

126. You think I was like, "I can't. What will Gordo say? What if he's hurt?"

127. Fuck that! I said, "Yeah. Sign me up."

128. Yes, Molly. Of course you did because you're a—

129. Selfish prick.

130. No. I was going to say that you're a force of nature and—

131. No. I'm a selfish prick. That's okay.

132. Selfish pricks change the world.

133. Your ex-husband is one.

134. Dev Ayesa, I guarantee you,

135. is a card-carrying member of the Selfish Prick Club.

136. And deep down, much as you try to hide it, you are too.

137. Is the baby okay?

138. The test results will tell us more.

139. I'll be right back.

140. Hey.

141. What's going on?

142. With the preeclampsia, the baby is not getting enough blood through the uterus.

143. Jesus.

144. And Kelly?

145. Her blood pressure is high. It's too high.

146. We need to deliver the baby to save both their lives.

147. I can't… lose her. You understand that, Dimitri?

148. I'm doing everything I can, Edward.

149. But I don't have the appropriate equipment for this here.

150. The fetus will be premature by at least a month.

151. Meaning what?

152. That we must get her and the baby up to Phoenix as soon as possible.

153. They have a ventilator and magnesium for her toxemia.

154. But we don't have enough fuel to launch the MSAM for another month.

155. If we don't deliver the baby in the next 24 hours, both of them could die.

156. Rover One, Happy Valley, come in.

157. Rover One, Happy Valley. Poole, Kuznetsov, come in.

158. I thought this was supposed to be an unmanned probe.

159. So did we. They kept it secret in case of failure.

160. They probably think he's dead. Poor bastard.

161. Wait a second. Didn't they launch in September?

162. So they landed on Mars before us.

163. He landed on Mars before us.

164. He was first man on Mars?

165. Motherfucker.

166. Wow.

167. Right.

168. You sure you don't speak any Korean?

169. I thought Russia and North Korea were supposed to be best buds.

170. Anyway, it makes no difference.

171. He's not on our frequency. He can't hear us.

172. Well, what are we gonna do? We can't just sit here.

173. Well…

174. if we rush him,

175. together, at the same time,

176. he can only shoot one of us.

177. Tell me that's not your best idea.

178. Do you have a better one?

179. Maybe we don't need words.

180. What are you doing, Danielle?

181. I'm not quite sure yet.

182. Okay…

183. Okay.

184. We need to borrow a part of your ship.

185. Yeah.

186. So, this is your ship.

187. We need a part of it, so that we can… leave.

188. What about this?

189. So that we…

190. can go home.

191. Yeah?

192. Home?

193. Home. Yeah.

194. Yes! So that we can go— Yes.

195. Wait! What— Kuz, goddamn it.

196. I'm trying to— Wait.

197. Give me this.

198. Got it.

199. Okay.

200. What was that?

201. You're right. We don't need words.

202. Happy Valley? Rover One. Happy Valley, do you copy?

203. Danielle, are you guys okay?

204. Yep. We're okay.

205. Did you get the Kurs system?

206. Yeah, we got it, and we're headed back.

207. But there's something else you should know.

208. How is this even possible, Mikhail?

209. They can barely launch a satellite into orbit.

210. Our friends in North Korea

211. have always been eager to prove they are world power.

212. I mean, what do we even call him? Is he a refugee? A prisoner?

213. Secretary Bush is concerned

214. the North Koreans will interpret this as a hostile act.

215. I will speak to the Chairman. They still need patronage of USSR.

216. Just get their cosmonaut home in one piece.

217. You have a deal, Mikhail.

218. And, may I add, your political troubles?

219. No. You don't have to—

220. There is famous Russian saying.

221. In English it would be,

222. "I ran from the wolf, but ran into the bear."

223. A bear indeed.

224. Good luck.

225. Thank you.

226. Goodbye, Mikhail.

227. We've got a lot going on here, as I'm sure you're aware.

228. So, to what do I owe this unscheduled visit, Ms. Catiche?

229. I have a sensitive matter to discuss.

230. If this is about our new North Korean guest—

231. It's not.

232. Well, I'm in the middle of planning a rescue mission.

233. You're being investigated, Margo.

234. Excuse me?

235. We have an asset inside your Justice Department.

236. And they have alerted us that you're currently being investigated by FBI.

237. Someone from NASA is talking to them.

238. Who?

239. Aleida Rosales.

240. From what our asset has been able to gather,

241. federal agents are preparing to make an arrest very soon.

242. Margo, we can help you.

243. I've seen how you help people.

244. If you do nothing, you will get arrested.

245. You will spend the next 40 years of your life in a penitentiary.

246. Is that what you want?

247. Sojourner still has plenty of LH2.

248. Their habs could be used to synthesize the methane faster.

249. Okay, that's promising.

250. We're limited by the rate we can pull CO2 from the Martian atmosphere.

251. Can I borrow you for a second?

252. Sure. I'll be right back.

253. We're gonna head to JSC soon.

254. - Okay. Go ahead. I'll meet you there. - Yeah.

255. Yeah.

256. So how you holding up?

257. - Fine. - Yeah?

258. Fine. Yeah, I am.

259. I'll be better once Kelly gets safely up to the Phoenix.

260. And we'll get her there.

261. Okay, so I just wanted to give you the heads-up that it looks like

262. the bastards are about to make their move.

263. Who?

264. The board.

265. They're trying to take Helios from us.

266. So, we cannot sit around and wait for them to take control.

267. I've been talking to some international partners.

268. - Hey, Dev. I— - Hold on a second. Listen.

269. I've been talking to some international partners,

270. and they're really interested in what we got going on.

271. They're hedging a little bit,

272. - in light of everything that we— - Dev.

273. What?

274. The board approached me.

275. They asked me to be CEO.

276. What'd you say?

277. I said I need to think about it.

278. Have you?

279. I believe in this company. Dev, I do.

280. I believe in what we have built and what we are building.

281. But what it needs right now is a steady hand.

282. - Dev, I want you— - No.

283. - I want you to know that— - Don't apologize.

284. This is on me.

285. I never should've broken from our core collective principles.

286. Giving you your office, your title, everything that you asked for

287. that corrupted everything that this company stands for.

288. Dev, we both know that this has nothing to do

289. with some abstract notion of togetherness.

290. Okay, it doesn't? So what does it have to do with then, Karen?

291. Enlighten me.

292. You.

293. Dev, over the last few months,

294. your erratic behavior, your decision-making, your—

295. your inability to adjust based on setbacks has put our financial health at risk.

296. This is about the future of our company.

297. About the people that you claim to care so much about.

298. So you're doing this for them? No one else?

299. No.

300. I'm doing it for me too. But tell me what's wrong with that, huh?

301. I have worked my ass off to get here.

302. - Now you're taking your pound of flesh. - This is not how I want it to be, okay?

303. Dev, I want you to stay on with us, okay? With me, you have a seat on the board.

304. We continue to build what we have been together.

305. And watch you pillage my company?

306. Sell it off for parts?

307. No, thank you.

308. NASA's working the problem, but…

309. It's not coming easy.

310. To be able to launch with the fuel we have on hand,

311. we need to cut a lot more weight out of the MSAM.

312. Is there anything else we can take out of Popeye?

313. - How much do we need? - NASA says a thousand pounds.

314. We've already taken out most of the seats.

315. Cut out all the nonessential hardware. There's—

316. There's nothing really else, if the thing still needs to fly.

317. There is one more thing left to pull.

318. What?

319. Us.

320. We are the weight.

321. Nine of us.

322. That's a thousand pounds, give or take.

323. What? No.

324. If we stay, Kelly can go.

325. No. That's not even—

326. It means we'll have to wait for Sojourner 2 to pick us up.

327. That's a year and a half from now.

328. This is crazy.

329. You can't do this. There isn't enough food to last that long.

330. Well, if we institute strict rationing of all our MREs

331. and Kelly's crops in the jungle keep growing at the rate they've been…

332. Yeah, I mean, it'll be rough. But maybe we could make it work.

333. Absolutely not.

334. I am not letting any of you make that choice.

335. We'll just have to figure something else out or… I don't know.

336. Dimitri, is there any way to give birth down here?

337. I'm sorry. There is not.

338. I'm staying.

339. Danny. No.

340. I'm gonna stay too.

341. - I will stay also. - And me.

342. This is insane.

343. You can't survive here that long.

344. Don't do this.

345. There's been a lot of talk down there about giving up on Mars.

346. But as hard as it's been, and as much as we grieve the ones we lost,

347. all that would be for nothing if we gave up now.

348. So, we're going to get Kelly to Phoenix,

349. and you're gonna have to come get us…

350. 'cause we're not going anywhere.

351. Happy Valley out.

352. Get me the president.

353. Check. One, two, check. How's that level, Brandon?

354. Okay, good.

355. I'm live here outside Johnson Space Center where we have just heard…

356. Kelly Baldwin and her unborn child are gonna be launched

357. to needed medical facilities aboard the orbiting Phoenix craft.

358. This shocking development comes live here at the Johnson Space Center

359. where hundreds have gathered…

360. After you get inside support room 329, look for the video patch panel.

361. Unplug the cable connected to switcher one

362. and plug in this transceiver.

363. Then Sunny'll be able to upload the video we record from the camera out here.

364. Easy-peasy.

365. Are we sure this is the right time to be doing this?

366. It's the perfect time.

367. All eyes are on NASA right now.

368. It's gonna show everyone what a corrupt institution this really is.

369. We're gonna change the world today, Jim.

370. And give your parents the justice they deserve.

371. You good?

372. Yeah.

373. …medical facility aboard the orbiting Phoenix craft.

374. We will have the very latest on this very sh—

375. Even reducing from nine MSAM passengers down to one,

376. with our current propellant on hand…

377. we are still only at 95.3%.

378. Ninety-five percent. You've gotta be kidding me.

379. - It's better than 80%. - Who cares?

380. You can't get 95% of the way to Phoenix. It's 100% or nothing.

381. Aleida.

382. Step outside with me for a minute.

383. Margo, I—

384. I need your focus here.

385. I know. I'm—

386. I need to talk to you about something.

387. I know, Aleida, about the investigation.

388. - You do? - Yes.

389. I'm sorry you got pulled into this. That was never my intention.

390. Believe me. I tried to stop it.

391. Why'd you do it?

392. Why'd you help them?

393. After all this is over, we'll talk.

394. But right now, we're running out of time.

395. And I need you in there.

396. - You mean before or after… - Come on.

397. …you crashed your ship into the surface, making it useless for everyone.

398. You guys brought down a mountain.

399. All right.

400. Let's just go ahead and accept

401. that the MSAM will only

402. get us to 95% orbital velocity.

403. So, how do we get the last 5% of the way there?

404. I mean, if we had time to build a second stage to MSAM, with a different fuel,

405. we'd be gold. But we don't.

406. Maybe we do.

407. She's the second stage.

408. - What? - Kelly.

409. How is that even—

410. We give her an independent propulsion system.

411. The PMU.

412. They should still have that aboard Sojourner.

413. And she's trained to use it.

414. The propulsive mobility unit was designed to get an astronaut

415. back and forth along the hull of Sojourner.

416. It doesn't have enough thrust to get her to Phoenix.

417. It's not about thrust. It's about impulse. We just need a bigger gas tank.

418. Now if we can find a way

419. to connect all the backup propellant tanks to the PMU,

420. then she can get the velocity she needs to get into orbit.

421. I'm sorry. Are you suggesting we light Kelly Baldwin up like a rocket?

422. Basically.

423. Steven, take a spare PMU pack and some backup prop tanks to building 7.

424. Figure out a way to connect the tanks and go get us that last 5%.

425. Got it.

426. Bill, if this is gonna work,

427. she's gonna have to be outside on top of the MSAM for separation.

428. You and your team figure out

429. - how we're gonna pull that off. - Let's go.

430. And I want people in the sims working out every possible scenario here.

431. She's not gonna have any guidance or navigation,

432. so she'll have to do the rendezvous visually.

433. Let's move.

434. All right. Bring it in, everybody.

435. I just wanna let you all know that the board of directors is going to ask me

436. to resign my position as CEO of this company.

437. Karen Baldwin will be taking my place.

438. - Huh? - Can't be serious.

439. They think we should turn our eyes away from Mars.

440. Refocus on our helium-3 lunar mining.

441. That's where the money is.

442. And I'm not gonna lie to you guys, it's a lot of money.

443. And given the recent setbacks,

444. they think that we pushed too far, too fast.

445. That we should retreat.

446. But that's not who we are.

447. - No. - Is it?

448. This is bullshit, Dev.

449. They can't do this.

450. My friends,

451. Helios has been the great work of my life.

452. Of all our lives.

453. But at the end of the day,

454. Helios is just a name on a building.

455. And what we've accomplished is more than just a name.

456. - Yeah, that's true. - It's a revolution. Made up of all of us.

457. Together.

458. We can and we will start over.

459. Yeah. That's right.

460. But this time, we'll do it right.

461. No board of directors. No board of anything.

462. You will be the board of directors.

463. We will not turn our back to Mars. No!

464. We will double down.

465. More bases, more missions, more everything.

466. This is only the beginning.

467. I have a question.

468. For those who choose to follow you on this new venture,

469. will they be compensated the same as they are now?

470. Thank you for your concern, Karen.

471. Yes, there will be some initial pay cuts as we get our feet underneath us.

472. This is just me being honest with you.

473. - What are we talking about? - Yeah, how much of a pay cut?

474. Are we talking 10%, 15%?

475. We're not in this for the money.

476. - We need to stick together. - Speak for yourself.

477. What about our stock options, Dev?

478. Stock options?

479. Yeah. If we quit, we lose our stock options in Helios, right?

480. - I don't know if that's true, but— - Ted's right. They'd be void.

481. That's, like, a hundred grand we'd be walking away from.

482. - Okay. - I can't just jump ship.

483. I can't do that. That's a lot of money.

484. Okay. People.

485. This is not about money.

486. This is not about any one of us.

487. This is about all of us striving for something greater.

488. But that's pretty easy for you to say, Dev.

489. I mean, you're, like, rich.

490. - I just want a house. - I'm paying student loans.

491. My mortgage.

492. From the top of the MSAM?

493. That's insane.

494. Yeah, maybe, but…

495. that's the plan.

496. You can do this, Kel.

497. Remember there's almost no atmosphere, so launching in the open

498. will be kind of like riding in the back of the LSAM on the moon.

499. And you've had more training in the PMU than anyone up here.

500. It'll be just like another EVA.

501. More like being shot out a cannon.

502. Well…

503. But if this is what it takes to keep my baby safe, then it's what I'm gonna do.

504. That's my girl.

505. But if I'm on top of the MSAM, how am I gonna fly it?

506. Well, you're not.

507. I am.

508. No, that's—

509. We'd use almost all the prop.

510. There'll be nothing left for your landing, you'll crash into the surface.

511. I'm not gonna let anyone else put themselves on the line

512. for you and Ed Junior.

513. Don't worry.

514. I'm talking to Houston,

515. and we're gonna figure out a way for me to get back down safe.

516. And I got the best pilot I know to help us out.

517. All right.

518. That's enough of that shit.

519. Let's get this show on the road.

520. Where's the queen of darkness?

521. Hello, Molly.

522. How I missed that voice.

523. I hear Ed Baldwin has need of my assistance.

524. Yes. He said he wanted someone with—

525. Someone who's actually had their ass on the line?

526. I believe that's how he put it, yes.

527. Okay. Let's not belabor this any further. What do we got?

528. What are the propellant margins he'll be dealing with

529. once Kelly separates from the MSAM?

530. He could have as little as 2% to 3% left in his tanks.

531. That's not much to work with.

532. FIDO, GUIDO teams…

533. get Ms. Cobb anything she needs.

534. I'm glad you guys made it back.

535. These are the residents of Happy Valley.

536. Welcome.

537. All right. What's his name?

538. No idea. He won't say a word.

539. What is your name?

540. Lieutenant Colonel Lee Jung-Gil.

541. What in the hell?

542. I picked up a few words during the war.

543. Commander Ed Baldwin.

544. You must take me back to my post.

545. Your post?

546. You must take me back to my post.

547. He keep— keeps saying we should—

548. we should take him back to his home.

549. He didn't seem too happy about us taking him from his ship,

550. but what were we supposed to do, just leave him there to die?

551. To him, the mission is above all else, no matter what cost.

552. Well, my good dumpling…

553. …this is now your home.

554. Okay. Dani. Get the Kurs system to Louisa.

555. - Yeah. - We need to launch soon.

556. Okay.

557. Jimmy.

558. - Karen. - Hi.

559. Hi.

560. What are you—

561. Oh, yeah, you're here for the…

562. Yes. I didn't expect to see you though.

563. Yeah. Well, you know, I'm here.

564. I'm sure that Danny appreciates that.

565. Yeah.

566. You good?

567. Yeah, I—

568. I just think I'm gonna go out for a smoke.

569. Okay. Well, I'll see you in there then.

570. Yeah. I'll see you in there.

571. Okay.

572. Karen.

573. We've got a spot over here for you.

574. Thanks.

575. You know, I knew I'd get you to work with me one way or another.

576. It's funny, they used to keep me up there.

577. Me too.

578. Yeah, 20 years ago I was in the viewing gallery

579. waiting to hear if my husband was gonna be okay.

580. And now I'm down here.

581. Still waiting to hear if he and my daughter are gonna be okay.

582. Hey, Jim.

583. How'd it go?

584. Good.

585. Real good. Everything's set up.

586. Great. We really appreciate it.

587. - Don't we, Hal? - Sure do.

588. Cool.

589. I gotta go to the restroom.

590. All right. We'll see you in a little bit.

591. Hi, it's Amber. Please leave a message.

592. Amber, it's Jimmy. Please call me back.

593. I think there's something going down at JSC,

594. and I don't know what to do.

595. Maybe—

596. Hey, you okay?

597. Yeah. I'm fine.

598. Cool. Yeah, 'cause you kinda ran off back there, so…

599. No, I had to go pee. That's all.

600. Who you calling?

601. Amber.

602. I was telling her I was gonna be home late.

603. That's so sweet.

604. I'm gonna go pee.

605. Ms. Madison?

606. There's a video call for you from Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany.

607. Put it through.

608. Margo?

609. It is done.

610. My family and I, we are out. Thank you. Thank you so much.

611. I'm so happy to hear that, Sergei.

612. You know, it was quite exhilarating.

613. They took us in the middle of the night.

614. You know, we only landed here in Germany one hour ago.

615. I hope it wasn't too much for your parents.

616. No. On the contrary.

617. No, they were never been more excited.

618. First time in the helicopter.

619. Thank you.

620. Thank you once again, Margo.

621. I don't know if I can ever repay you for this.

622. Don't worry about that. Just stay safe.

623. They say we should be in the United States by the end of the week.

624. That's…

625. wonderful.

626. I am very much looking forward to living in America.

627. It's gonna be an adjustment living in a new place.

628. Yes.

629. I cannot wait.

630. We will see each other very soon.

631. Yes. We will.

632. Goodbye, Sergei.

633. So, Ed, the trick with this is it's all in the timing.

634. Now, don't try to judge your height by looking down at the ground.

635. It'll be coming towards you too fast.

636. And you can't trust that radar altimeter,

637. because we don't know exactly what terrain you're gonna be dealing with.

638. So that's fucking useless.

639. You gotta keep your eye on the horizon

640. to gauge exactly when to fire 'em up.

641. A second too soon, you're a smoking hole,

642. and a second too late, you're a barbecue chicken.

643. Yeah, it's a good thing you're at the end of your career, Ed.

644. You ain't got that much to look forward to anyway.

645. Godspeed, friend.

646. Mol.

647. Is this gonna work?

648. I'm not gonna lie. This is about as tricky as flying gets.

649. Last time I tried anything like this

650. was back in my barnstorming days at the Topeka State Fair.

651. You were a barnstormer. Why does that not surprise me?

652. Oh, yeah. Clown suit, flying on the wings, the works.

653. Only way I could make a living after these fuckers killed Mercury 13.

654. They can't keep you away, can they?

655. Not a chance.

656. Excuse me.

657. - Amber? - Hi. Karen,

658. I'm sorry to bother you, especially now, but I didn't know who else to call.

659. - What's wrong? - It's Jimmy.

660. I got a message from him a few minutes ago,

661. and he was speaking really fast

662. and talking about something weird going on at JSC,

663. and then his phone just cut out.

664. I'm really worried about him. He hasn't been himself lately.

665. Okay.

666. Let me see what I can figure out, okay?

667. Thank you, Karen.

668. Everything out there prepped for launch?

669. - Yeah. - Great.

670. - Ed. - Yeah?

671. Please let me do this.

672. I've been training on the MSAM since '92. I know it.

673. - She's my daughter. - I know.

674. But the odds of you making it back…

675. I'm the one that should go.

676. If anyone's gonna do it…

677. - it should be me. - What the hell are you talking about?

678. You got a wife and kid back home. You got your whole life in front of you.

679. End of discussion.

680. But…

681. - I really don't have time to argue— - It was me, Ed.

682. You what? What the hell are you talking about?

683. I'm the one who didn't relieve the housing pressure on the drill.

684. Not Nick.

685. What?

686. It's my fault the drill came apart.

687. - No, that's not possible. - It's true, Ed.

688. You got distracted. It was a mistake.

689. No.

690. I saw the numbers rising. I didn't do anything to stop it.

691. Why?

692. I—

693. I just turned the comm off.

694. I don't know. I was angry.

695. I was a mess.

696. Ed, I'm sorry.

697. I'm sorry.

698. Ed, please. I have to do this.

699. - I have to do this, please, Ed. - No.

700. - Please, let me do this. Ed, please. - No!

701. After what you just said, you think I'm gonna let you fly my daughter up there?

702. - I just— I thought— - You thought?

703. You didn't think at all, you selfish piece of shit.

704. Ed, I'm sorry.

705. My daughter's not the way you absolve yourself from your fucking guilt.

706. I'm gonna tell you what you're gonna do. You're gonna get your ass back to work,

707. and you're gonna make sure that everything goes according to plan.

708. And when all this is over…

709. there's gonna be a reckoning, Danny.

710. You understand?

711. I can't fucking hear you.

712. Aye, aye, sir.

713. Get outta here.

714. Excuse me, sir.

715. Have you seen a young man, kinda longish hair, flannel shirt, denim coat?

716. - No, ma'am. - No? Okay. Thanks.

717. Shit.

718. Hey, this is Jimmy.

719. Leave a message.

720. Good. Transmit this up to Happy Valley base.

721. Make sure they use this updated launch window.

722. Listen up.

723. I remember standing right over there when Gene Kranz put a hold on the countdown

724. and called everyone in here before Apollo 11.

725. Yeah, I'm old.

726. I still remember his words to this day.

727. "The future is ours to fight for and win."

728. He was right then.

729. And he still is today.

730. So I just wanted to say

731. what an honor

732. and a privilege

733. it has been working with all of you.

734. Thank you.

735. Aleida.

736. The room is yours.

737. All right, everyone.

738. It's go time.

739. We only got a few minutes before the communications lag

740. will prevent us from sending anything else up,

741. so let's make sure they have up-to-date trajectories

742. and that the flight crew on Phoenix has eyes on the launch site.

743. Alexei, he would have wanted this.

744. I miss him.

745. Me too.

746. He would be very proud.

747. Sixty seconds to launch.

748. Doing okay up there, kid?

749. You know. Just thinking about my career choices.

750. You got this, Kel.

751. Happy Valley, Phoenix.

752. All systems nominal.

753. Our orbital plane alignment looks good. And the flight trajectory is on target.

754. Go for rendezvous.

755. Copy, Phoenix.

756. All systems are a go on our end.

757. Popeye…

758. You are go for launch.

759. Copy that. Booster arm on. Tanks are pressurized.

760. - Dad. - Yeah?

761. I love you.

762. I love you too, kiddo.

763. Always.

764. Always.

765. Ignition in five, four, three, two, one.

766. Shit.

767. Trajectory's right on target. Velocity 122 meters per second.

768. We'll smooth out in a minute, Kel.

769. Low fuel.

770. Fuel is at 30%.

771. Velocity of 2,500 meters per second.

772. One minute to separation.

773. - Low fuel. - Come on.

774. - Kel, prepare for separation. - Copy.

775. Propeller tank pressure two on.

776. I've got visual on Phoenix.

777. Go for separation.

778. Here we go, kid.

779. Executing pitch maneuver.

780. Engine shutdown.

781. Unhooking safety harness.

782. Fire PMU boosters in three, two, one. Go!

783. - We got her. - Yes!

784. She's at the air lock.

785. Nailed it.

786. Jimmy.

787. - Thank God, Karen. - Okay.

788. - We gotta get out of here. - Oh, my God.

789. Come on.

790. Oh, my God.

791. Run!

792. Oh, shit.

793. Move!

794. Security!

795. Security. Hi.

796. There's a gray van over there, and there's a man at the van.

797. Get back! Everyone get back!

798. Descent rate high.

799. 14,000 meters.

800. Descent rate high.

801. 10,000 meters. Descent rate high.

802. 8,000 meters.

806. Descent rate excessive.

807. 1,000 meters. Pull up.

808. Pull up. Descent rate excessive.

809. 500 meters. Pull up.

810. Pull up.

811. There are reports coming in

812. of a bombing at the Johnson Space Center in Houston.

813. Looks like this could be a mass-casualty event…

814. The number of casualties is unknown at this time.

815. We are hearing reports of potentially…

816. A massive car bomb has reportedly exploded

817. outside the main office building at Johnson Space Center.

818. It is unknown how many have perished at this time.

819. Who's there? Who's that?

820. It's Andrew.

821. - Are you hurt? - Yeah. It's my head.

822. - Can you stand? - I think so.

823. Okay. I'm gonna get you out of here.

824. Let's go, up.

825. This way. Follow my voice.

826. It's 25 more steps to the stairwell.

827. All right, Andrew, we got this. Not far.

828. Okay, here's the stairwell. Head down.

829. Make your way to the front of the building. Someone help him down.

830. I'm going back for more people.

831. Ed.

832. There was a bombing at JSC.

833. And Karen was there.

834. I am so sorry.

835. It's what we all decided was for the best, Danny.

836. Somebody will bring you more supplies every month.

837. I understand.

838. In 1620, a ship called the Mayflower

839. traveled across the Atlantic Ocean in search of a new world.

840. Some came to escape their past,

841. others to follow their dreams.

842. They faced many hardships and turmoil.

843. But together,

844. and with the memory of those they left behind…

845. they were able to overcome.

846. What was once a group of strangers,

847. voyagers seeking a better life,

848. had become something different,

849. something more.

850. And in the unlikeliest of places…

851. they found a new home.

852. Hey.

853. Hey.

854. So…

855. what do we do now?

856. I don't know.

857. Mornin'.
