00:00The Titanic, which had been sunken for 114 years, finally resurfaced, but the ocean people treated

00:04it as a weapon to attack humans. They tossed it casually into the city. Along with it came all

00:09the plastic waste humans had dumped into the ocean. This was the water people's revenge,

00:12but it was also the evil humans had sown themselves to strive for peace. Humans organized

00:16negotiations. They even picked a rhododendron from the snow layer at the highest point on earth,

00:20hoping to gain the water people's friendship. But the envoy insisted that Barkley, an ordinary human,

00:25be the one to negotiate. With no choice, the joint department leading the negotiation had

00:28to reluctantly agree. But Barkley actually had very little autonomy. He had to follow instructions

00:33in his earpiece, and read aloud the prompt on the screen word for word. The envoy stopped Barkley

00:37from reading. Her request was now very simple. She just wanted a glass of water. Though the request

00:41seemed a bit odd. The soldiers nearby had no choice but to comply. But the water she wanted wasn't

00:45the purified water humans evolved. Barkley was a bit stunned. Water from the river. Could it be the

00:51water people had a special preference? Liking to drink that dirty river water? But since that's what

00:55they liked, they had no choice but to comply. So, surrounded by a group of soldiers, people

00:59quickly extracted a very pure sample from the nearby Thames river. Though not as pristine as India's

01:03Ganges, this water could still be considered clean and hygienic. Barkley kindly reminded that,

01:08for safety, the water should be disinfected before drinking. But the envoy didn't actually want to

01:12drink it herself. The water is not for us. It is for you. Barkley hesitated for a long time. Though he was

01:18willing to make a small sacrifice for all humanity. It was clear the other side didn't just want him to drink

01:23the water. Kate behind the scenes quickly gave instructions, and Barkley abandoned the idea of

01:27sacrificing himself for humanity. This was a series of talking points prepared specifically for

01:42negotiating with the water people. It's like how we handle customer service calls. No matter the

01:46question, there's a standard answer. But Barkley didn't want to be a puppet anymore. Since the

01:49water people chose him as their envoy, they must have wanted a sincere answer. Because we were

01:53stupid. That's the truth of it. And the whole planet's going to hell right now because we didn't

02:02understand the consequences. But now you do. Yeah. Yeah, now we do. This is too risky. No, wait.

02:11Still, every day, water companies are pumped with poison, sewage into our rivers and oceans, all the

02:15dishing out bonuses to their bosses. And the thing is, we are letting them get away with

02:20it. We're just sat at home, flicking through our phones, making tea, thinking it's someone

02:24else's problem. But it's not. This is my fault. We all played our part. Now we have to help

02:29fix it. And the thing is, our kids know this. Our kids. They're way ahead of us. Why aren't we listening?

02:39Bartley's speech was an unprecedented success. He thought he had become a hero. But when he

02:54turned around, he saw the general's expressionless face, openly defying a superior's order. It's fine

02:58if things go well. But if he angered the water people, who would take responsibility? Fortunately,

03:03as relations eased, the negotiation finally moved to the main topic. Humans promised to cut 50% of

03:07pollution emissions by 2065, and then accelerate exponentially afterward. But the envoy was

03:12disdainful. 40 years is too long. She wanted immediate results. Barkley patiently explained that

03:17reducing pollution too fast would stall human development. The economy would collapse. Many

03:21people would starve. Although he wanted to help the water people, it would definitely be a very long

03:25process. The envoy's expression changed immediately. Humans starving to cut pollution, while her people

03:30were dying from the wastewater. Should we wait while your engines deafen us? While your trawlers ravage our

03:40home? While we choke on your plastic and sewage? We cannot hear or see or breathe. So tell me why we should live

03:57like this. For just one day longer. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. The envoy accepted Barkley's apology,

04:07but an apology alone wasn't enough. Humans had promised to manage pollution. Now the water people

04:12wanted to see how strong that commitment really was. Following the envoy's gaze, Barkley looked out the

04:16window. Countless pieces of plastic waste were falling over the city. If humans claim they can manage

04:20pollution, then they should start by paying off their old debts. To the government, this action

04:34was basically seen as an act of war. With the plastic rain, many major cities around the world

04:39were paralyzed. The losses were beyond estimation. But since the water people could instantly move

04:43ocean waste to the cities, they could just as easily use seawater to flood the land. Modern human

04:47technology was nothing to them. Kate didn't give up and had Barkley start a second negotiation with

04:51the water people. She had prepared lines, expecting him to just read them. But as an ordinary person

04:55living on the bottom rung, Barkley again broke the rules. He negotiated according to his own thoughts.

05:07Barkley pointed out that many innocent people were hurt by the plastic rain. He hoped the water people

05:11would pause attacks during talks. But the emotional appeal could only work once, a second time wouldn't

05:15be effective. Kate knew this, which is why she had prepared the lines for Barkley. Since humans

05:19couldn't meet the water people's conditions, they might as well listen to what the water people wanted.

05:23The envoy didn't hold back and proposed three conditions. First, immediately stopped polluting

05:27all oceans and water bodies. And they meant right now. Kate had already expected this.

05:31She had communicated with leaders of all countries. Anyway, with such a huge plastic rain,

05:35businesses and factories couldn't operate normally. But next, the second condition from the water

05:39people was hard to accept. They demanded a boundary between humans and water people.

05:43All water on earth belongs to the water people. All oceans and waterways.

05:48Sorry, excuse me, we're an island nation. Are we permitted passage across the oceans?

05:53No. The human race evolved to live on land, not in the waters or the sky.

06:00She said sky. Do you want the skies now?

06:03You live in the ocean. The skies are not your concern.

06:07The air above the ocean is the ocean. This is our space.

06:13Are you seeking to ground all air transport?

06:16Transport over land is your concern. Transport across water will not be permitted.

06:22But that's ridiculous.

06:24Barkley, you're losing control.

06:25Trade between continents is an essential function of the modern world.

06:28Yes, our continent relies on food imports.

06:31We will take questions from the ambassador.

06:34Barkley, there's no hope for this. What do I have to respond to?

06:36You are amphibian. You don't own this guy. You cannot stab our people.

06:40We will take questions from the ambassador.

06:42You're holding us hostage.

06:43What about the Channel Tunnel?

06:44The world cannot function without cross-continental travel.

06:47How dare you. How dare you come in here and dictate the future of the human race.

06:53You are condemning developing countries to death.

06:55Hang on!

06:56Hang on!

06:56As the situation was about to spiral out of control, the envoy let out an angry roar.

07:02Then her face and skin actually changed.

07:03The envoy turned out to be both male and female.

07:06Under Kate's instructions, Barkley apologized on behalf of humans.

07:09But the issues raised by representatives of various countries were also critical.

07:12The water people's conditions already threatened human survival, so time was needed to discuss

07:16countermeasures. After all, unlike the water people, humans on land are divided into hundreds

07:20of countries of various sizes. Reaching a consensus is genuinely difficult.

07:24Barkley suggested both sides first sign a formal ceasefire agreement. If a real fight breaks

07:28out, the ones who suffer will be ordinary people living on the bottom rung.

07:31The envoy neither agreed nor disagreed.

07:33She just proposed her third condition. Since it's an equal dialogue, the next negotiation

07:37location couldn't be in this concrete building. It had to be designated by them.

07:40She touched the pearl on her neck, and the coordinates on the screen instantly changed.

07:44Looking at the latitude and longitude, the negotiation site was set at the Romanché Trench.

07:47It's located in the deepest part of the Atlantic, about 7800 meters down.

07:51Even the most advanced manned submersibles would be crushed by water pressure halfway down.

07:55Will you meet us, Barkley? At the bottom of the ocean?

08:05itch?

08:10Bye, everyone.

08:11At the bottom of the ocean?

08:13We've got harmful assumptions today.

08:14We've got 2500 sides of the ocean.

08:16If you age different from
