00:00I'm in the armory.
00:30Pathfinder. Help me with something? I know, not exactly standard. Gotta make the space comfortable. Plus, the fabric diffuses the charge from an overclocked gommie blade. Not giving up a 6% boost, right?
00:48Someone brought this to Andromeda?
00:51It was new when we left. It's been a hard year. So, finally time for that beer?
00:57And, after two years and a dozen suspensions, I took a lateral promotion out of the force. Being a cop just didn't fit. The crisis response? Digging people out of trouble? That worked. I bet I also followed you into a few peace actions.
01:11Think about your Alliance days much?
01:15Tell me about your group.
01:17Heavy Urban Search Terrain 1? Earth's contribution to a multi-species disaster response unit.
01:24H-U-S-T-1, but Hustle looks much better on the patch. All civilians, retired vets, or shits like me. I was fiercely feared it.
01:36Tastes better just thinking about those days.
01:42Tastes better just thinking about those days.
01:47I put it behind me after Dad's work went sour. It was... a long time ago.
01:52Six hundred years, give or take.
01:55So, Pathfinder, why Andromeda?
01:59That blunt, huh?
02:01That blunt.
02:02I started in the Alliance, but it was the science that kept me going. And when that ended...
02:14Well, if I wanted to be a part of the next big discovery, it had to be here.
02:18Ah, I don't hear Idealist a lot. Everyone's cynical.
02:21Back at you, Kosta. Why'd you come?
02:23I want to say I'm running from my past, but really running from myself. That'd be a great story.
02:32But it's bullshit.
02:34I had family, friends, a good enough job. Nothing was wrong.
02:37I just heard about the Initiative and...
02:40I believed in it.
02:42I believed in a new beginning. Still do.
02:45I have to.
02:47We're in it.
02:49If it all goes wrong, it could feel like we left for no reason.
02:56I know why I'm here.
02:58A bad start can't change that. I won't let it.
03:01In Crisis Response, I'd focus on Essentials. That's you and this team.
03:04Pathfinder leads to planets, leads to people.
03:07You've got your part covered. You've got this.
03:09I'll do my damnedest to help with the rest.
03:12I'll talk to someone.
03:28Oh, hey, Pathfinder.
03:31The Pathfinder's there? Let me say hi.
03:34Fine, but don't embarrass me.
03:37Ryder, this is Cid, my sister. Cid, Ryder.
03:41I hope I'm not interrupting something important.
03:45Not at all. We were just finishing up.
03:47Wait, Ryder, I just wanted to know if...
03:50So I know it feels like I just jumped aboard your ship without explanation?
03:56I would have done the same just to get off the Nexus.
04:01That's not why I came.
04:03Sure, I want to explore the galaxy, but I'm really here to work.
04:07I know everyone on the crew, even the actuators Gil prefers for the ship.
04:12Better I know how to get my hands on them.
04:15With me around, your crew's going to be at their best.
04:18We've been failing for months, Ryder.
04:20Now that we have you, we have a chance out here.
04:23We need people with skills, and it sounds like you've got many.
04:31Welcome aboard.
04:32Yep, making deals to get the things you want, shooting at the things you don't.
04:36That's me. We all have a personal stake in this.
04:39If it keeps going the way it's been, we're all dead.
04:42I should track down a lead for Gil's actuators. Back channels. You know.
04:49We'll chat later.
05:12We haven't really spoken since Orientation, have we?
05:32It's all been so hectic, but I'm sure things will quiet down soon. Can't be worse than the Nexus.
05:41Ah, Pathfinder. It's so wonderful to meet you.
05:45I'm Dr. Suvi Anwar, assigned to act as liaison between your crew and the Nexus science team.
05:53Welcome to my team. I look forward to working with you.
05:56Likewise. I can't wait to get to work. There hasn't been much to do so far, unfortunately.
06:02I've studied all the planetary scans, I've even had some hands-on experience with Helios soil samples.
06:08If you want, I'll send you my analysis on the native bacteria and microfauna. 60 pages.
06:15Will this be useful to my mission?
06:18It's extraordinary what we can learn from Dirt's profile. What lived and died here. How our own plants might fare.
06:25Anyway, I've waited months to get out there to see Helios. It's why I joined the initiative.
06:30The Milky Way was just a corner of a vast universe. A corner of a tiny corner.
06:35We're the ones who got to step out of that corner. It's incredible!
06:40The first time I handled a Prothean artifact, I was hooked. It was so... alien.
06:47I just knew. There's more out there. And I want to see all of it.
06:51I totally know what you mean.
06:53So will you be joining us on missions?
06:55Oh, that's funny. Me, out there. With the guns and the danger and everything.
07:06Why should that be funny? You seem capable.
07:09Oh, I'm flattered, but no. I have no combat experience. I'd shoot you in the back. Not intentionally. Of course.
07:21Anyway, I've just received some instructions from the science team, and I really should go over them. Later then.
07:28Overall.
07:30I am not afraid. Now, on top of the medicine, I don't remember the stat talked about one more.
07:36I said I planned the ARMY in the background. I wasn't listening to the download cloth, and I really cared about it.
07:45I was friends. IORY loved it.
07:50I removed my videos, and it is a tree with varia, but I didn't get clear.
07:55Glad you stopped by. You'll pardon me if I keep an eye on our vector?
08:03That's probably smart.
08:05Ah, nothing like being on the bridge of your very own ship, is there?
08:11I could stand here and drink in that view all day.
08:14When I was test piloting the ship back home, I often did.
08:17Of course, it took a whole team to build the Tempest. I was the only one to come to Helios, though.
08:22Why did you?
08:23What can I say?
08:25We poured our hearts into a ship that wouldn't realize her potential until Andromeda.
08:29I could have stood on the shore and waved goodbye, or took the leap to see how it all turned out.
08:37I get it. Like leaving a good story half-finished.
08:41The team liked that one of us was going. It felt right after all we went through.
08:45I remember Serena debugging line 2281 over and over, chewing that green pencil.
08:50Tian and O'Connell arguing equations, tapping on the console. Three drips of coffee on the corner.
08:56You remember all that?
08:58Hmm? Oh, yes.
08:59Salarians have photographic memories, and apparently mine's unusually sharp.
09:03Like my past is still happening.
09:06Though I suppose with the Salarian Ark missing, you might not get many chances to compare.
09:10Did you hear anything about the Ark back on the Nexus?
09:14Not a peep. Isn't that strange? You'd think there'd be something.
09:20Not that I dislike your company, but it's lonely without other Salarians.
09:23Cheer up, Calo. We'll always have Director Tan.
09:29That snide little bureaucrat? All the more reason to find the others.
09:33I should get back to it, but thank you.
09:36I was afraid the Tempest would be mothballed after we lost your father.
09:39We built her for this. She deserves to be in a Pathfinder's hands.
09:43Please, come by any time.
09:45Come on.
10:15Come on.
10:45Come on.
11:15One, two, three.
11:45I don't know.
12:15I'm picking up something.
12:30Probe away.
12:32Satellite detected.
12:45Satellite detected.
14:15Probes launched.
14:20Tracking a huge mineral deposit.
14:45Tracking a huge amount ofέλos,
14:51you will see the second floor of an Beltrans.
14:52basically the first floor for nobel than rising.
14:57And it actually was directed to a Preciselyël...
14:58and with a huge amount of force that can run and demise
15:00from which children have never been medieval.
15:01It really could sink.
15:02It's room for four years to get washable?
15:04So this is where the human arc first entered Helios.
15:23Heck of a wake-up call.
15:30Anomaly on sensors.
15:34Deploying probe.
15:37I've found something.
15:40Shuttle spotted.
15:42Drifting.
15:43It sustained catastrophic electrical damage.
15:45That's the research vessel Dr. Aridana informed us of.
16:06There are no life readings within.
16:08She'll want to know.
16:09Dr. Aridana, you are the only one near that door.
16:23Dr. Aridana saw here the Issoch alone at first.
16:26Anomaly on sensors.
16:54Deploying probe.
16:56Satellite detected.
16:57Satellite detected.
16:58Satellite detected.
16:59Satellite'!
17:01Satellite detected.
17:03Satellite detected.
17:04Satellite detected.
20:09This is about as far as the Nexus surveyors could get before, well...
20:25Let's see what's waiting here.
20:29Anomaly on sensors.
