1. okay, let's hear it.Copy !req
2. How did you dump him?
Everyone wants to know.Copy !req
3. There's nothing juicy to tell.Copy !req
4. I just told him that
if he couldn't get comfortableCopy !req
5. with our differences, then there
was no point dragging this out.Copy !req
6. And by "differences,"
you mean the fact thatCopy !req
7. you could bench press him
with one arm.Copy !req
8. Apparently, having a girlfriendCopy !req
9. with ten times
your physical strengthCopy !req
10. makes a guy feel emasculated.Copy !req
11. Wow, you're just gonna have
to date Isaac here.Copy !req
12. I am fascinatedCopy !req
13. by the interpersonal behavior
of biological organisms.Copy !req
14. I would be happy
to attempt sexual relationsCopy !req
15. with you, lieutenant.Copy !req
16. I'm actually just sort of
working on myself right now.Copy !req
17. Um...
But thanks.Copy !req
18. Lieutenant...Copy !req
19. What is that?Copy !req
20. What, you never seen Sushi?Copy !req
21. It's a regional dish from earth.Copy !req
22. Raw fish. You
want to try it?Copy !req
23. No, wait, that's wasabi.
Wait. Whoa!Copy !req
24. You got to be kidding me.
He just...Copy !req
25. You just ate the whole ball.
Dude, are you okay?Copy !req
26. I am feeling no discomfort.Copy !req
27. How? If I ate
half that much,Copy !req
28. I'd be throwing up
and crying in it.Copy !req
29. The moclan digestive system
is quite resilient.Copy !req
30. Because of our planet's
harsh climate,Copy !req
31. my species evolved
to draw nourishmentCopy !req
32. from a wide variety of
organic and inorganic matter.Copy !req
33. Wait. So you can eat anything?Copy !req
34. I can eat many things.Copy !req
35. Can you eat this napkin?Copy !req
36. Ooh!Copy !req
37. Hang on. Hang on.Copy !req
38. One cactus plant.Copy !req
39. Can you eat this?Copy !req
40. Oh, come on, Gordon, don't...
He's gonna hurt himself.Copy !req
41. Come on! No way!Copy !req
42. What about this glass?Copy !req
43. Oh!
Oh!Copy !req
44. Oh, this is gonna be fun.
This is...
Ew.Copy !req
45. This is gonna be
a new fun thing.Copy !req
46. Hang on. I'm gonna find
a bag of nails.Copy !req
47. Bridge to all senior officers.Copy !req
48. We're receiving
a priority one distress call.Copy !req
49. Report to the bridge.Copy !req
50. We're gonna come back
to this.Copy !req
51. how long before we arrive
at the colony?Copy !req
52. About two minutes
out, sir.Copy !req
53. Still no other union ships
in the sector?Copy !req
54. Negative, commander.Copy !req
55. Coming into scanner range now,
captain.Copy !req
56. One krill battle
cruiser detected.Copy !req
57. Kastra 4 has pretty weak
planetary defenses, don't they?Copy !req
58. They're a brand-new colony.Copy !req
59. Damn it, this is the third
krill attack in a month.Copy !req
60. I have visual contact, sir.Copy !req
61. Aw, man,
they're getting clobbered.Copy !req
62. Ed, there are
families down there.
I know.Copy !req
63. There's probably a lot
of single people, too.Copy !req
64. Sir, the offensive capabilities
of the krill shipCopy !req
65. are significantly superior
to our own.Copy !req
66. Alara, open
a hailing channel.Copy !req
67. Attention, krill ship,Copy !req
68. this is the u.S.S...
Oh, uh,Copy !req
69. I haven't done it yet.Copy !req
70. Oh. Sorry.Copy !req
71. Okay, you're on.Copy !req
72. Now?
Yeah.Copy !req
73. All right.
Attention, krill ship,Copy !req
74. this is the u.S.S. Orville.Copy !req
75. Cease fire immediately,
or we will respond.Copy !req
76. In the history of space
battles, has that ever worked?Copy !req
77. They have ceased firing
upon the planet.Copy !req
78. I stand corrected.Copy !req
79. Yeah, I, uh...Copy !req
80. I don't think it worked.Copy !req
81. deflectors down to 87%.Copy !req
82. Return fire.Copy !req
83. Direct hit. No damage.Copy !req
84. Somebody put that out!Copy !req
85. What happened
to automatic fire suppression?Copy !req
86. That's the panel
that caught fire.Copy !req
87. Ed, if we stay in
a pounding match...
We lose. I know.Copy !req
88. Gordon, can you take us into the
upper atmosphere of the planet?Copy !req
89. Just skim the surface
between air and space.Copy !req
90. Captain, that'll create
a lot of friction.Copy !req
91. With the deflectors low,
the atmosphere...Copy !req
92. Can you do it?Copy !req
93. Yes, sir.Copy !req
94. All right, take us in.Copy !req
95. Bortus, prepare to launch
all plasma torpedoesCopy !req
96. simultaneously.Copy !req
97. Sir, that will leave us
virtually defenseless.Copy !req
98. Follow my orders.
Gordon, how close?Copy !req
99. Entering upper
atmosphere, sir.Copy !req
100. The krill ship is continuing
weapons fire.Copy !req
101. They seem unable
to lock onto us.Copy !req
102. You're throwing up
a smoke screen.Copy !req
103. Their scanners are blinded.Copy !req
104. Gordon, on my mark,Copy !req
105. take a straight shot upward,
and I mean hard.
Aye, sir.Copy !req
106. Now.Copy !req
107. Fire torpedoes.Copy !req
108. Alara, hail the colony.Copy !req
109. You're on, sir.Copy !req
110. Kastra 4, this is
captain ed MercerCopy !req
111. of the u.S.S. Orville.
What is your condition?Copy !req
112. Captain,
this is mining chief leidecker.Copy !req
113. We got hit hard.Copy !req
114. There are dozens of casualties.Copy !req
115. 19 people
already confirmed dead.Copy !req
116. All right, stand by.
We're sending help.Copy !req
117. Mercer out.Copy !req
118. Bridge to sickbay. Dr. Finn,
assemble a medical team.Copy !req
119. Aye, sir.Copy !req
120. Ed.Copy !req
121. Look.Copy !req
122. To the Victor...Copy !req
123. Go the spoils.Copy !req
124. captain Mercer,
this is a game changer.Copy !req
125. An intact, functioning
krill shuttle.Copy !req
126. Every once in a while
you get lucky.Copy !req
127. It was just floating
out there in the wreckage.Copy !req
128. Ed:
I imagineCopy !req
129. the union engineering
corps is gonna haveCopy !req
130. a field day pulling
this thing apart.Copy !req
131. I'm sure they would.Copy !req
132. But we have
a different plan in mind.Copy !req
133. Despite all of our
engagements with the krill,Copy !req
134. we've only managed to gain
a few scraps of intelligenceCopy !req
135. regarding their
culture. Generally,Copy !req
136. when a civilization becomes
more technologically advanced,Copy !req
137. their adherenceCopy !req
138. to religion declines.Copy !req
139. But the krill
are an exception.Copy !req
140. They've clung fiercely
to their faith,Copy !req
141. even into the age
of interstellar travel.Copy !req
142. All we know of their religionCopy !req
143. is that it places
the krill peopleCopy !req
144. above all other forms of life.Copy !req
145. When they attack
a colony for its resources,Copy !req
146. they don't see it
as an evil act.Copy !req
147. It's their "divine right."Copy !req
148. God created plants and animals
solely for the use of man.Copy !req
149. We can't reason
with them.Copy !req
150. And if we went to war,
they'd see it as a holy crusade,Copy !req
151. which means
it could last decades.Copy !req
152. Well, we also can't just sit by
and do nothingCopy !req
153. while these attacks continue.Copy !req
154. We need to understand them.Copy !req
155. Find a way to communicate
in a fashion that resonates.Copy !req
156. We need to obtain a copy
of the anhkana.Copy !req
157. What's the anhkana?Copy !req
158. The krill Bible—Copy !req
159. it determines their code
of conduct in all matters.Copy !req
160. It would go a long way toward
helping us find an inroad.Copy !req
161. How do we get one?Copy !req
162. Union intelligence believes thatCopy !req
163. every krill ship has
at least one on board.Copy !req
164. Well, you're not gonna
find one out there—Copy !req
165. that ship is decimated.Copy !req
166. You're going to find one.Copy !req
167. S... sorry, uh...Copy !req
168. So... sorry, what, now?Copy !req
169. You and your helmsmen
are gonna take that shuttleCopy !req
170. across the border
and infiltrate a krill vessel.Copy !req
171. You're going to obtain
a copy of the anhkana.
Admiral,Copy !req
172. there has to be someone with
more undercover experience.Copy !req
173. Oh. Thanks.Copy !req
174. What? You want to risk death
on a krill ship?Copy !req
175. No, but y-you also don't have
to make me look badCopy !req
176. with company over.Copy !req
177. We have a window
of opportunityCopy !req
178. to make use of the shuttle
before they know we have it.Copy !req
179. The shuttle is here,
you're here,Copy !req
180. and we all know that Malloy
is the best pilot in the fleet.Copy !req
181. Get prepped, captain.
You got the job.Copy !req
182. kitan to shuttle bay.Copy !req
183. We're approaching the border
of krill space.Copy !req
184. Acknowledged.Copy !req
185. You almost finished?Copy !req
186. Yes, sir. The shuttle
is ready to depart.Copy !req
187. Grayson to Mercer.Copy !req
188. The shuttle is prepped
and ready to launch.Copy !req
189. Move!Copy !req
190. Ed:
EveryoneCopy !req
191. just stay calm.Copy !req
192. If we do what he says,
he won't hurt anyone.Copy !req
193. What do you want?Copy !req
194. Which one of you...
Is bortus?Copy !req
195. I am bortus.Copy !req
196. I...Copy !req
197. Want you...Copy !req
198. To eat my weapon.Copy !req
199. What?Copy !req
200. Oh, man!
Oh, my god.Copy !req
201. Your faces were
freakin' priceless.
That was great.Copy !req
202. That was great.
What the hell's
going on here?Copy !req
203. Gordon?Copy !req
204. Dude, that was hilarious.Copy !req
205. They're miniature holographic
generators, courtesy of Isaac.Copy !req
206. We can foolCopy !req
207. their eyes and
their bioscanners.Copy !req
208. Ed, they're sending you
into enemy space,Copy !req
209. and you're acting
like it's some big joke.Copy !req
210. My god, if you are discovered...Copy !req
211. Look, Kelly, why do you thinkCopy !req
212. I'm trying
to lighten the mood here?Copy !req
213. I'm scared off my ass.Copy !req
214. Just...Copy !req
215. Do me a favor, okay?Copy !req
216. Be very, very careful.Copy !req
217. I will.Copy !req
218. I promise.Copy !req
219. Grayson to bridge.Copy !req
220. Stand by to launch.Copy !req
221. Better yet, off?Copy !req
222. What are you reading?Copy !req
223. It's the intelligence briefing
the admiral prepared.Copy !req
224. You should be
reading it, too.Copy !req
225. Well, just summarize
the important parts.
Listen to this.Copy !req
226. Apparently, the atmosphere
of the krill home worldCopy !req
227. is permanently shroudedCopy !req
228. by a dense cloud cover
that obscures 96%Copy !req
229. of the sunlight from
the planet's surface.Copy !req
230. A world existing
in perpetual night.Copy !req
231. No wonder they're
so cranky all the time.Copy !req
232. Hmm.Copy !req
233. Oh, crap. You know
what we forgot to do?Copy !req
234. What?
We forgot to come up
with krill names.Copy !req
235. Oh, my god, you're right.
Yeah. What do
krill names sound like?Copy !req
236. I don't know. I don't
think anybody knows.Copy !req
237. Probably exotic and alien.Copy !req
238. Probably, yeah.
Like quarz... noth,Copy !req
239. like that kind of thing.Copy !req
240. Zang... uh, tozon.Copy !req
241. Kreeyewloxstein.Copy !req
242. Probably not "Stein."
No, not "Stein."Copy !req
243. Like a haj... valorp.Copy !req
244. Froozhengladje.Copy !req
245. Haagendazs.
Yeah, see, any oneCopy !req
246. of these could be right—
we don't know.Copy !req
247. There's a ship
approaching.Copy !req
248. A krill destroyer.Copy !req
249. Oh, man. This is it.Copy !req
250. All right,
switch 'em on.Copy !req
251. This is the yakar.
Identify yourself.Copy !req
252. Yakar, we are a shuttle
from the krill ship kakov.Copy !req
253. Request permission
to dock.Copy !req
254. They're scanning us.Copy !req
255. We're about to find out whether
or not these things work.Copy !req
256. You are clear for docking.Copy !req
257. You ready?Copy !req
258. Yeah.Copy !req
259. Hey there.
How's it going?Copy !req
260. Come with us. The captain
wishes to speak with you.Copy !req
261. Welcome, brothers, to the yakar.Copy !req
262. I am captain haros.Copy !req
263. This is our
high priest, sazeron.Copy !req
264. Hi. I'm... Chris.Copy !req
265. And this is... Devon.Copy !req
266. Those are strange names.Copy !req
267. Oh, yeah, not
like haros.Copy !req
268. Ed:
Hey, listen,Copy !req
269. thank you so much
for rescuing us.Copy !req
270. We've been through
an ordeal.Copy !req
271. What happened to the kakov?Copy !req
272. It was destroyed
in a battleCopy !req
273. with a union ship,
the Orville.Copy !req
274. We were the only two survivors;
We barely escapedCopy !req
275. with our lives.
Yeah, they must've hadCopy !req
276. a crazy good pilot.Copy !req
277. I mean, the moves
on this guy.Copy !req
278. We... we just
never had a chance.Copy !req
279. Strange that you were
the only survivors.Copy !req
280. Well... we were...Copy !req
281. Conducting maintenance
on a shuttle at the time,Copy !req
282. and when the kakov
was destroyed,Copy !req
283. the shuttle was thrown
clear into space.Copy !req
284. Seems you were
unusually fortunate.Copy !req
285. Well... Devon and I prayedCopy !req
286. that we
would be rescued, and...Copy !req
287. Here you are, so...Copy !req
288. Can't... can't
do that in these.Copy !req
289. We are pleased to be
the answer to your prayers.Copy !req
290. Don't you agree,Copy !req
291. sazeron?Copy !req
292. The anhkana teaches
that all krill are brothersCopy !req
293. in the great crusade.Copy !req
294. Ah, the anhkana.Copy !req
295. That-that's my
favorite book.Copy !req
296. Since you have had
a close engagementCopy !req
297. with a union ship,
perhaps you have informationCopy !req
298. that could be useful
to our present mission.Copy !req
299. What... mission is that?Copy !req
300. I'd like to hear about it.Copy !req
301. Come.Copy !req
302. It is time for services.Copy !req
303. I always look forwardCopy !req
304. to this time of day.Copy !req
305. It is a welcome break
from our duties, and a reminderCopy !req
306. of our place in the universe
and in the eyesCopy !req
307. of avis.Copy !req
308. Avis?Copy !req
309. Yes, I agree.Copy !req
310. I find services to be
a great source of comfort.Copy !req
311. Yeah. Yeah, y-you know,
it's also kind of funCopy !req
312. to see how your coworkers dress
when they're off the clock.Copy !req
313. You know, 'cause I think
everybody's got their own styleCopy !req
314. that they don't really get to...
To show during work hours.Copy !req
315. I think it's great to see peopleCopy !req
316. get to really express themselves
through fashion.Copy !req
317. Like, you really get to see
the person inside.Copy !req
318. You know?
Indeed.Copy !req
319. This chapel
is a recreationCopy !req
320. of the one in which
I worshipped as a child.Copy !req
321. Well, I guess it's true
what they say:Copy !req
322. Rank has its privileges.Copy !req
323. I have never heard
that aphorism.Copy !req
324. Who says it?Copy !req
325. Oh.Copy !req
326. I... I guess
it's me who says it.Copy !req
327. It is a wise observation.Copy !req
328. Take any place you wish.Copy !req
329. We will speak later.Copy !req
330. Hello.Copy !req
331. Hi.Copy !req
332. I am teleya.Copy !req
333. I have not seen you
at services before.Copy !req
334. No, uh, actually,
we just got here.Copy !req
335. I'm Chris and this is Devon.Copy !req
336. We were on the kakov.Copy !req
337. You were?Copy !req
338. My brother was
on the kakov.Copy !req
339. I'm... I'm very sorry.Copy !req
340. He is now at peace
in the arms of avis.Copy !req
341. Should we tell them
their god isCopy !req
342. a 20th century
car rental company?
Quiet.Copy !req
343. Perhaps you knew
my brother.Copy !req
344. He was the
tactical officer.Copy !req
345. His name was arnak.Copy !req
346. Oh. Yeah, no, I...
Great guy.Copy !req
347. Then you were friends?Copy !req
348. Um...Copy !req
349. We were, we were.Copy !req
350. Yeah, really tight,
me and that guy.Copy !req
351. Buddies for life.Copy !req
352. Devon and arnak.Copy !req
353. "Darnak," they called us.Copy !req
354. Strange he never
spoke of you.Copy !req
355. You say you were close?Copy !req
356. Oh, man, yeah.
Yeah, we...Copy !req
357. We used to take baths
together.Copy !req
358. I'm really
gonna miss him.Copy !req
359. As am I.Copy !req
360. I do know that he
really loved his sister.Copy !req
361. That is good to hear.Copy !req
362. I know avis will protect
his eternal soul.Copy !req
363. Yeah, he's... he's got
the gold membership now.Copy !req
364. Shh.
He's not waiting
in any lines.Copy !req
365. Going right to his car.Copy !req
366. For god's sake, shut up.Copy !req
367. A blessed evening.Copy !req
368. Temeen emideen.Copy !req
369. Temeen emideen.Copy !req
370. Katniss everdeen.Copy !req
371. Let us now cleanse.Copy !req
372. This human was captured during
the taking of the colonyCopy !req
373. on chara three.Copy !req
374. He believed his
people had claimCopy !req
375. to its resources.Copy !req
376. But he is not krill.Copy !req
377. And avis has touched usCopy !req
378. with his divine hand.Copy !req
379. Hail avis.Copy !req
380. Hail victory!Copy !req
381. Hail avis! Hail victory!Copy !req
382. Temeen emideen.Copy !req
383. Temeen emideen.Copy !req
384. Temeen emideen.Copy !req
385. Temeen emideen.Copy !req
386. TemeenCopy !req
387. emideen.Copy !req
388. Temeen emideen.Copy !req
389. Temeen emideen!Copy !req
390. Temeen emideen!Copy !req
391. Temeen
emideen!Copy !req
392. Temeen emideen!Copy !req
393. I enjoyed sharing
worship with you.Copy !req
394. Perhaps I shall see you again.Copy !req
395. Yeah, this is, uh...
Kind of a crazy week for me,Copy !req
396. but we'll-we'll
figure something out.Copy !req
397. Come on.Copy !req
398. Dude, that was the sickest,
darkest thing I've ever seen.Copy !req
399. I thought I was
gonna throw up.Copy !req
400. Let's go.Copy !req
401. By the way, Chris and Devon?Copy !req
402. Look, it just slipped out.
I had to think of something.Copy !req
403. Let's just focus
on our job, okay?Copy !req
404. That is a lot
of pages, man.Copy !req
405. Yeah, well, the
sooner we're done,Copy !req
406. the sooner we can get
the hell out of here.Copy !req
407. May I help you, brothers?Copy !req
408. Sazeron.Copy !req
409. No. We simply wished to seek
further guidance and comfortCopy !req
410. from the anhkana
for our, uh,Copy !req
411. grief over the
destruction of our ship.Copy !req
412. Oh wise and powerful avis,
cover the loss of our vehicle.Copy !req
413. And have you found
the wisdom you seek?Copy !req
414. I think, I think we did.
Yeah, I think we did.Copy !req
415. I think we did, yeah.
Definitely.Copy !req
416. I-I know, uh,
for me, man,Copy !req
417. whenever I'm having a
bad day, all I got to doCopy !req
418. is crack that baby openCopy !req
419. to any page and it's just,Copy !req
420. just like a back rub
for the brain, man.Copy !req
421. It just hits the spot.Copy !req
422. So, yeah. I think we're
all set here, yeah?Copy !req
423. I think we are. I think
we're done, right?
I think...Copy !req
424. I think we're-we're,Copy !req
425. we're just gonna
go on and, uh,Copy !req
426. check in with the,
uh, "capitan."Copy !req
427. And, uh, thank him again
for his hospitality.Copy !req
428. So, we'll see ya.Copy !req
429. Bye.Copy !req
430. These quarters
are like a dungeon.Copy !req
431. How can they
live like this?Copy !req
432. Well, just be glad
it's not a dungeon.Copy !req
433. The captain trusts us for now.Copy !req
434. Oh, god, their literature
is gruesome.Copy !req
435. It's like a
Bret Easton Ellis novel.Copy !req
436. How much longer?Copy !req
437. Ed: The ship's night shift
began two hours ago,Copy !req
438. so we should be safe.Copy !req
439. What the hell's
the matter with you?Copy !req
440. I was trying to tip-toe.Copy !req
441. Don't walk so close behind me.Copy !req
442. Sorry.Copy !req
443. Look.Copy !req
444. That must be avis.Copy !req
445. Man, he's a real dick, isn't he?Copy !req
446. Let's do this fast.Copy !req
447. My lord.Copy !req
448. I request permission to
place a guard on the chapel.Copy !req
449. For what reason?Copy !req
450. I do not trust
our visitors.Copy !req
451. Chris and Devon.
Why not?Copy !req
452. I found them in the
chapel after services.Copy !req
453. They seemed unusually
interested in the anhkana.Copy !req
454. Is that not a good thing?Copy !req
455. Perhaps.
But I am not convincedCopy !req
456. their intentions were holy.Copy !req
457. You have always had
a suspicious nature, my friend.Copy !req
458. But then, you have
earned that right.Copy !req
459. If it will set your mind
at ease...Copy !req
460. This is captain haros.
Place a guard on the chapel.Copy !req
461. Crew member:
Yes, captain.Copy !req
462. Thank you, my lord.Copy !req
463. The union anthropologistsCopy !req
464. are gonna be digging
through this for months.Copy !req
465. Maybe years.Copy !req
466. My comm scanner's
acting funny.Copy !req
467. I think it...Copy !req
468. Gordon. The emitters.Copy !req
469. Dude, you look like you.Copy !req
470. Oh, no. No, no, no, no.
Try yours.Copy !req
471. Oh, thank god.Copy !req
472. What the hell went wrong?Copy !req
473. Looks like some kind of
electromagnetic interference.Copy !req
474. Try adjusting the
frequency on your emitter.Copy !req
475. There we go.Copy !req
476. Oh...
Wait a minute.Copy !req
477. Interference from what?Copy !req
478. Whatever it is,
it's two decks below us.Copy !req
479. Giving off a hell
of a power signature.Copy !req
480. This is the source.Copy !req
481. I'm reading high levels
of neutron radiation.Copy !req
482. Well, that doesn't
look friendly.Copy !req
483. It's not.Copy !req
484. It's a bomb.Copy !req
485. We have the anhkana, let's
just get the hell out of here.Copy !req
486. That weapon generates
enough neutron radiationCopy !req
487. to wipe out
billions of people.Copy !req
488. We have to find out
what they're doing with it.Copy !req
489. Well, how are we supposed
to do that?Copy !req
490. This is very kind of you.Copy !req
491. I have not shared an
evening meal in some time.Copy !req
492. Well, you're kind of our only
friend on board this ship.Copy !req
493. We just thought we should
get to know you better.Copy !req
494. A wonderful idea.Copy !req
495. Sorry it smells
like dudes in here.Copy !req
496. Thank you,
avis, for this,Copy !req
497. our sustenance,Copy !req
498. that it may provide
strength and perseverance.Copy !req
499. Would you like
to say a blessing?Copy !req
500. W...Copy !req
501. Um... avis.Copy !req
502. We try harder.Copy !req
503. I'm sorry again
about your brother.Copy !req
504. It is difficult.Copy !req
505. But in his death,Copy !req
506. I have found further
confirmation of my faith.Copy !req
507. In what way?Copy !req
508. The anhkana
teaches thatCopy !req
509. that which is not of
krill is without soul.Copy !req
510. The truth of those words
was reinforcedCopy !req
511. when the union
killed my brother.Copy !req
512. We will be carrying out
the will of avisCopy !req
513. when we destroy rana three.Copy !req
514. Yes, I've been told
of our holy mission.Copy !req
515. The bomb is
very impressive.Copy !req
516. Devon and I were
wondering how it works.Copy !req
517. We've never seen
anything like it.Copy !req
518. It is a prototype
neutron field generator.Copy !req
519. It can destroy all life
on a continentCopy !req
520. in a matter of minutes.Copy !req
521. Rana three will
be the first test.Copy !req
522. Rana three is
a farming colony.Copy !req
523. They have no defenses.Copy !req
524. An ideal site, yes.Copy !req
525. We got to warn the union.Copy !req
526. We got to take the shuttle
and get the hell out of here.Copy !req
527. They wouldn't be able
to send help in time.Copy !req
528. We're here. We have to
find a way to stop this.Copy !req
529. This wasn't part
of our mission, ed.Copy !req
530. We were literally
just sent hereCopy !req
531. to make xeroxes.
I know that!Copy !req
532. But there are over 100,000
people in that colony.Copy !req
533. We can't just let the krill
murder them.Copy !req
534. Well, what are we
supposed to do?Copy !req
535. The default frequency
of our emittersCopy !req
536. operates on a similar wavelength
as that neutron generator.Copy !req
537. That's why we
got the interference.Copy !req
538. So?Copy !req
539. What if we turned it around?Copy !req
540. Create a feedback loop,Copy !req
541. and use our emitters
to activate the weapon.Copy !req
542. We could trigger an overload.Copy !req
543. And we'd be able
to do it remotelyCopy !req
544. from the shuttle.
Exactly.Copy !req
545. We came here to try to find
a way to make peace.Copy !req
546. And now we're talking about
killing everybody on board.Copy !req
547. If you have another answer,
I'm all ears.Copy !req
548. We'll need tools.Copy !req
549. Chris. Devon.Copy !req
550. Teleya. Hi.Copy !req
551. Are you busy
at the moment?Copy !req
552. Well, we were just on our way
to get our chin horns waxed.Copy !req
553. Would you mind taking
a few minutesCopy !req
554. to speak with my trainees?Copy !req
555. Uh, no. Yeah.
Uh, yeah. No, sure.Copy !req
556. Yeah, we can take a
few minutes, yeah.Copy !req
557. Excellent. Follow me.Copy !req
558. Trainees, to attention.Copy !req
559. Children,Copy !req
560. these are the brave soldiers
I told you about,Copy !req
561. Chris and Devon.Copy !req
562. They are here to tell you about
their battles with the union,Copy !req
563. and to answer your questions.Copy !req
564. How many humans
have you killed?Copy !req
565. Uh, you know, that's
a really good question.Copy !req
566. I would have to check my notes
and get back to you.Copy !req
567. Why doesn't the union
believe in avis?Copy !req
568. Well, they worship their
own god, called hertz.Copy !req
569. Do humans have souls?Copy !req
570. Of course not, coja.Copy !req
571. Then how can they talk?
Or make spaceships?Copy !req
572. A computer can talk.Copy !req
573. That does not mean
it has a soul.Copy !req
574. Remember the anhkana.Copy !req
575. "Judge not a stranger
by his sheathCopy !req
576. but by his sword."Copy !req
577. Wouldn't you agree, Chris?Copy !req
578. Yeah, that's what my
tramp stamp says.Copy !req
579. You know,
I just remembered,Copy !req
580. we have some work
we have to finish up.Copy !req
581. Is it okay if
we come back later?Copy !req
582. Of course. That is fine.Copy !req
583. Great. We'll see you then.Copy !req
584. Krill or no krill,
I'm not gonna killCopy !req
585. a bunch of kids.
Well, what about the colony?Copy !req
586. I don't know.Copy !req
587. But I do know that
if we destroy this shipCopy !req
588. with those children on board,Copy !req
589. then teleya's right—
we have no souls.Copy !req
590. There are kids on rana three.Copy !req
591. Ed:
Coja.Copy !req
592. What are you doing here?
I have more questions.Copy !req
593. Look, this is not a good time.
You're gonna have to...Copy !req
594. I want to know
where the humans come from.Copy !req
595. Earth. They come
from a planet called earth.Copy !req
596. But, listen, coja...Copy !req
597. Where is it?Copy !req
598. Well, it's...Copy !req
599. It's really far away.Copy !req
600. See that bright star
right there?Copy !req
601. Right there.Copy !req
602. Well, if you looked
to the left of itCopy !req
603. with a really
powerful telescope,Copy !req
604. you'd see the star
at the centerCopy !req
605. of earth's
planetary system.Copy !req
606. How come humansCopy !req
607. don't look like krill?Copy !req
608. Well...Copy !req
609. On krill, it's
really dark.Copy !req
610. Right? And that's why we
all have very pale skin.Copy !req
611. But on earth, it's different
all over the planet.Copy !req
612. In some places, where
there's a lot of sunshine,Copy !req
613. they evolved special cells
that produce darker skinCopy !req
614. that protects them from
ultraviolet rays, and...Copy !req
615. Coja, I'm sorry,
but you need to go now.Copy !req
616. But I want to knowCopy !req
617. how the humans get...
Later. We'll
talk later.Copy !req
618. Okay? Go on, go on.
Go play in traffic.Copy !req
619. If we could access the
internal power grid,Copy !req
620. how much do you think we could
turn up the lights on this ship?Copy !req
621. Well, if we could
induce a power surge,Copy !req
622. probably as much
as you want. Why?Copy !req
623. Sunlight.Copy !req
624. For a speciesCopy !req
625. that evolved in darkness,
sunlight would be deadly.Copy !req
626. You remember when we fought
the krill on epsilon 2?Copy !req
627. They wore helmets.Copy !req
628. We always assumed it was
a military affectation,Copy !req
629. but it's not.Copy !req
630. They were protecting themselves
from sunlight.Copy !req
631. Oh, my god.
They're space vampires.Copy !req
632. Exactly!Copy !req
633. We could amplify the uvCopy !req
634. end of the spectrum,
they'd fry, and we'd just getCopy !req
635. a bad sunburn.Copy !req
636. But what about the kids?Copy !req
637. We could blow out the lights
in the classroom.Copy !req
638. We just have to make sure we
do it when they're all inside.Copy !req
639. Dude...Copy !req
640. We're vampire hunters.Copy !req
641. Let's go.Copy !req
642. hey, you know what'd
look good on this wall?Copy !req
643. A black velvet painting of avis.Copy !req
644. Yes. That would be good.Copy !req
645. this is excellent.Copy !req
646. Gordon, what's your status?Copy !req
647. Ready when you are.Copy !req
648. I can set the timing
of the surge on your mark.Copy !req
649. Okay. I'm outside the classroom.
The kids are all inside.Copy !req
650. Give us ten minutes to be safe.Copy !req
651. Set.Copy !req
652. As soon as the surge
is initiated,Copy !req
653. meet me at the rendezvous point.
Mercer out.Copy !req
654. Malloy to Mercer.Copy !req
655. Mercer here.
What is it, Gordon?Copy !req
656. Sorry. What's the
rendezvous point again?Copy !req
657. For god's sake, the bridge,
Gordon, we meet on the bridge.Copy !req
658. Oh, right, yeah. Got it.
Sorry. Brain fart.Copy !req
659. Hello, Devon.Copy !req
660. I hope I didn't interrupt
a private conversation.Copy !req
661. Hey.Copy !req
662. Chris. You've returned.Copy !req
663. Yeah, you know,
I felt kind of badCopy !req
664. about leaving
so abruptly before.Copy !req
665. Well, your timing is excellent.Copy !req
666. I was just about to let
the class go early.Copy !req
667. No, no! Don't do that.Copy !req
668. What I mean is...Copy !req
669. I want to make sure
I have time to answerCopy !req
670. everyone's questions,
about the battle.Copy !req
671. That is very thoughtful of you.Copy !req
672. Hey, one of
the good ones right here.Copy !req
673. This guy.Copy !req
674. Perhaps you wish to explain whyCopy !req
675. you are in possession
of a union device.Copy !req
676. It's, uh...Copy !req
677. It's a toy.Copy !req
678. A toy.Copy !req
679. Yeah. Yeah.Copy !req
680. I'm part of this cosplay group,Copy !req
681. and my friends always
make me play the human.Copy !req
682. Search him.Copy !req
683. Ah.Copy !req
684. And what is this?Copy !req
685. That is a pepper mill.Copy !req
686. Got it for Christmas.Copy !req
687. Kind of a crappy gift, right?Copy !req
688. Yeah, my family sucks.Copy !req
689. Sound the alarm.Copy !req
690. Find the other one immediately,
and bring this oneCopy !req
691. to the captain.Copy !req
692. Wait a minute.
Teleya,Copy !req
693. where's coja?Copy !req
694. Uh, he requested a pass.Copy !req
695. He said he wanted to
go look at the stars.Copy !req
696. What's the matter?Copy !req
697. Krill voice: Intruder alert!Copy !req
698. Intruder alert!
Find and detain officer Chris.Copy !req
699. Chris, what are you doing?Copy !req
700. Teleya, listen to me.
I need you to keep the kidsCopy !req
701. in this room
until I get back, okay?Copy !req
702. Why are they looking for you?
What have you done?Copy !req
703. Just please trust me.
On your brother's honor.Copy !req
704. Keep the kids here until
I return. Will you do that?Copy !req
705. All right.Copy !req
706. Good.Copy !req
707. Where is your compatriot?Copy !req
708. I don't know that word.Copy !req
709. Why are you here?Copy !req
710. What is your mission?
Look, dude,Copy !req
711. we just came here
'cause we were tryingCopy !req
712. to find a way to make peaceCopy !req
713. with you guys.Copy !req
714. Hey, we thought maybe if we read
the anhkana, we could findCopy !req
715. some common ground.Copy !req
716. You lie.Copy !req
717. You're after the neutron
field generator.Copy !req
718. I mean, yes, it sort of
became about that,Copy !req
719. but I swear to you...Copy !req
720. Damn it!Copy !req
721. That's a brand-new leg!Copy !req
722. sir.Copy !req
723. We are entering orbit
around rana three.Copy !req
724. Prepare the weapon.Copy !req
725. We will let the human watch.Copy !req
726. Captain, please listen to me.Copy !req
727. There are over a hundred
thousand people down there.Copy !req
728. They've done noth...Copy !req
729. It is the will of avis.Copy !req
730. oh, crap!Copy !req
731. Coja!Copy !req
732. Chris, I think I can see earth.Copy !req
733. We can see earth later.Copy !req
734. Come on, we got
to get out of here.Copy !req
735. Come on!
Where are we going?Copy !req
736. Come on!Copy !req
737. The weapon is ready
for launch, captain.Copy !req
738. Go, go, go, go, go, go!Copy !req
739. Fire.Copy !req
740. Oh.Copy !req
741. Ed,Copy !req
742. are you all right?Copy !req
743. Yeah. I'm okay.Copy !req
744. So are the kids.Copy !req
745. What's going on?Copy !req
746. Who are you?Copy !req
747. Okay. Now, don't be mad.Copy !req
748. Commander,
there is a shipCopy !req
749. closing on us; It is
a krill destroyer.Copy !req
750. Deflectors up.
Charge all weapons.Copy !req
751. They're hailing us.Copy !req
752. Put them on.Copy !req
753. Kelly, it's us.Copy !req
754. Please don't fire.Copy !req
755. Ed?Copy !req
756. God, am I happy to see you.Copy !req
757. Well, the feeling's
mutual, trust me.Copy !req
758. What happened out there?Copy !req
759. It's... a long story.Copy !req
760. Hey, uh, if somebody
could get aholdCopy !req
761. of about a thousand pounds
of aloe Vera,Copy !req
762. that would be terrific.Copy !req
763. well, I'm happy to say
you're perfectly healthy.Copy !req
764. There's no tissue damage
and no signsCopy !req
765. of uv exposure.Copy !req
766. Doctor, if you're through
with your examination,Copy !req
767. I'll take her to the brig.Copy !req
768. I was wondering if you'd have
the courage to face me again.Copy !req
769. I'd like a moment alone
with her.Copy !req
770. Captain, I think
I should stay.Copy !req
771. It's fine, lieutenant.Copy !req
772. Wait outside.Copy !req
773. I'm sorry.Copy !req
774. We had no choice.Copy !req
775. Where are the children?Copy !req
776. Arrangements have been made
to return themCopy !req
777. to their families on krill.Copy !req
778. And what about me?Copy !req
779. I don't know.Copy !req
780. But I can promise you
that you won't be harmed.Copy !req
781. You will forgive meCopy !req
782. if I have difficulty
believing that,Copy !req
783. from the man
who just killed my crew.Copy !req
784. Our mission was
in the interest of peace.Copy !req
785. But your crew
was going to murderCopy !req
786. a hundred thousand people.Copy !req
787. What the hell else
could I have done?Copy !req
788. Why did you save the children?Copy !req
789. They're kids.Copy !req
790. With their whole lives
ahead of them.Copy !req
791. They're not my enemies.Copy !req
792. After what they saw
you do today...Copy !req
793. They will be.Copy !req
794. They will be.Copy !req
