00:00The species that came before us was woken up.
00:03The Unified Intelligence Task Force was created to deal with alien life forms.
00:08I haven't got clearance. I'm brave. I work in transport. I'm a clerk.
00:12Almost!
00:13The first official meeting with Homo Aqua will begin here.
00:17My name is Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, Commander-in-Chief of the Unified Intelligence Task Force.
00:23And I hope this will be the start of a great endeavor to find peace.
00:27We have a gift for you.
00:29My children.
00:30But they choked on your oil and poison and excrement.
00:35I must state that we recognize the problems.
00:37You are not known to us. We would speak with him.
00:42We are not known to us. We must become.
00:56We are not known to us. We are not known to us. We're not known to us.
01:02I don't know.
01:32With me, please, sir.
01:39I suggest that this meeting is adjourned while we regroup.
01:50His name is Barclay P. L. DuPont. He's a grade 10, works in logistics.
01:54Family.
01:55Ex-wife and teenage child.
01:56Bring them in, put them in an interview room. I want his file on my screen by the time I get downstairs.
02:02Kate Lethbridge-Stewart.
02:05Yeah, and now I'll book your taxes.
02:07Sit down.
02:10We weren't expecting this, obviously.
02:14Me either.
02:15So help me understand.
02:16Out of nearly 8 billion humans on this planet, why do Homo Aqua want you as ambassador?
02:22I don't know.
02:23What communications have you had with Homo Aqua prior to today?
02:26None.
02:27Never.
02:29I mean, I had a goldfish once. Is that relevant?
02:32This isn't a joke, Mr. DuPont.
02:33I'm not joking.
02:35He was called Simon.
02:37Right now, a team of experts are trawling through every detail of your private life.
02:42Every text message, every email, every photo, everyone you've ever met.
02:46Back with Pierre DuPont, born 15-11-82. Get me his immediate family.
02:53Parents deceased. Married Barbara Numai, June 2003. Divorced November 2022. Split was amicable.
03:00Whatever he's done, we're not part of it. We're not even together.
03:03Tino's child, Kirby, who's 16, lives with the mother studying A-levels.
03:11Seize all devices and bring them in professionally, right now.
03:14My family have got nothing to do with this.
03:17They don't even know I'm here. I never ask for this to happen, okay?
03:21But I do want to help.
03:23And the thing is...
03:26You need me.
03:28I'm all right?
03:31Well, am I right?
03:33The first day of H-2O diplomacy has concluded with an abrupt change of ambassador.
03:42Sir Jonathan Hines has made no comment over his dismissal.
03:46And the identity of the new ambassador has been suppressed.
03:50This man is the most important person on the planet.
03:53Don't we have a right to know who he is?
03:55We cannot allow a foreign species to dictate our diplomacy process.
03:59This is dangerous.
04:03Prime Minister.
04:07The H-2O committee will not allow a random civilian to represent them.
04:10Gage ought to go back in that room and tell her.
04:12We choose our ambassador and the community's decision is final.
04:16I do it myself, but it doesn't look good, does it? If I'm the one who knows when war breaks out.
04:20Not when you can blame unit.
04:22Sorry.
04:23That's not what I meant.
04:27Maybe it's better woman to woman.
04:29If that's what she is, is that what she is?
04:31No, Flav.
04:32No.
04:33Please, Kate.
04:34We're relying on you.
04:36Thank you for this unscheduled consultation.
04:43I am Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, Commander-in-Chief of the Unified Intelligence Task Force and representative of the H-2O committee.
04:51The committee has requested urgent action regarding the role of human ambassador.
04:58Rather than appoint this civilian, they request that you trust in our original candidate.
05:04You talk of trust while meeting in secret in the dark.
05:14We would hear from the ambassador.
05:17Mr. DuPont is unprepared.
05:19We would hear from the ambassador.
05:34Come closer.
05:48Hello.
05:53Do you ever know?
05:55Is that a thing?
05:56Because I'm Barclay.
05:59It's Scottish.
06:00Well, my grandma's.
06:02Sc-sc-scrotters.
06:04My title will not translate.
06:08But you may call me Salt.
06:12Salt?
06:15I...
06:19Listen.
06:20I'm just a regular guy.
06:22I work in an office.
06:23I don't know about diplomacy and politics.
06:25I tell you an open, decent suit.
06:27He chose you for your humanity and compassion, not your expertise.
06:32Your leaders would replace you.
06:34But what do you want?
06:36I'm...
06:37I'm...
06:38I'm...
06:39I'm fine with whatever they decide.
06:40No.
06:41What do you really think?
06:47I think...
06:48this process is about everybody, right?
06:52The whole world.
06:54It's not just prime ministers and presidents.
06:56It's real people, like me.
06:59They worry about their bills.
07:01And their kids.
07:02I mean, I'm a nobody.
07:04I get it.
07:05But I think...
07:07Maybe it's time people like me had more of a voice.
07:10We hear you.
07:11We hear you.
07:13Ambassador.
07:17It is decided.
07:19Your request has been heard...
07:21and denied.
07:23Barclay will be present at dawn tomorrow.
07:27Or negotiations will end.
07:28Where are you taking me?
07:34Huh?
07:36What about my family?
07:38Please?
07:39I don't want to be shot.
07:41No, no, no, no, no, no.
07:46Are you gonna kill me?
07:49I forgot my gun.
07:51Really?
07:53No.
07:56Look, look, look, look.
07:57I'm not a spy.
07:58Or a collaborator.
07:59And I wasn't disrespecting anyone,
08:00if that's how it sounded.
08:01Alright?
08:02My mouth, it just goes on autopilot.
08:04I mean, the same thing happened when I proposed to my ex.
08:05It took me about 20 minutes to get to the ring.
08:08Barclay.
08:09I need someone I can work with.
08:12Well, yeah.
08:14Of course you do, yeah.
08:16And I think I can work with you.
08:22What?
08:24Well, hang on.
08:25I mean, like, five minutes ago, you're trying to get rid of me.
08:28I have to tread carefully.
08:30What all unit wants is a peaceful settlement,
08:32but there are levels and levels of politics at play here.
08:35International rivalries that go way back.
08:39Truth is, I've spent my whole life fighting for this planet.
08:43Now, with your help,
08:46I get to build a better world for everyone.
08:50I don't want to let you down.
08:51I mean, I keep thinking about the time I mixed up the taxis
08:53and you ended up in...
08:54Sklart, I remember.
08:56But Homo Aqua chose you for a reason.
08:59And I'm prepared to give you a chance.
09:03Okay.
09:07So what happens now?
09:10Now,
09:12your life changes.
09:13The passengers transport now arriving at Diplomatic Hotel.
09:22Clear the corridors.
09:38Security protocols.
09:39All delegates and Diplomatic staff are being relocated for their own safety.
09:42All right, but for how long?
09:43And what about my family?
09:44Can I call them?
09:45Barkley!
09:46Dad.
09:48What the hell's going on?
09:49I know, I know, I know, I know.
09:51Barkley will be present at dawn tomorrow.
09:54Or negotiations will end.
09:56We hear you.
09:57That's what she said to him.
09:58We.
09:59And if that's true,
10:00how is she communicating with her people?
10:02Maybe she's wearing an implant.
10:03Well, they could have shared consciousness.
10:04Or some kind of my Corazon network.
10:05Maybe they've mastered sound in a way we don't understand.
10:08Using frequencies we can't even air.
10:10Like Mariah Carey.
10:12I noticed something earlier when Sir Jonathan presented the flower.
10:16Everyone focused on her.
10:18But look.
10:22The exact moment she inhales,
10:25they all do.
10:27Even the ones in the water.
10:29She's softening her language.
10:32She used sarcasm.
10:34Like she's learning, adapting.
10:36They want an everyman as ambassador.
10:38But is that what she is?
10:39Because she's extraordinary.
10:41Those remains are en route to the lab.
10:44And the H2O committee are kicking off.
10:46They want to see you.
10:48So we're just accepting her choice of ambassador.
10:50What if he's not up to it?
10:52Well, their race has survived under the sea for millennia
10:55with centuries of social, evolutionary and technological advantage.
10:59She's running this show.
11:01Whether we like it or not.
11:11Evening.
11:13Didn't think you were in too late.
11:15I volunteered.
11:16Didn't want to miss this.
11:17Let's prep one for imaging.
11:19Mm-hmm.
11:20Careful.
11:31We'll take tissue samples.
11:33Prep some slides.
11:41You...
11:42You work in admin!
11:44You're not ambassador!
11:45You couldn't even finish your wedding speech.
11:47Only because your dad spilled wine all over it.
11:50On purpose.
11:51So you're literally the person they're talking about on TV.
11:53Like all the time.
11:54Yeah, but you can't say a word not to anyone.
11:56Who are we going to tell?
11:57We're prisoners.
11:58But dad is famous.
12:00Okay, just look on the bright side.
12:01Look at the view.
12:02It's nice in this room.
12:03It's amazing, isn't it?
12:04It's huge.
12:05Am I the only person living in the real world right now?
12:07What about work?
12:08And school?
12:09Kirby's got that coach trip on Thursday.
12:12A coach trip?
12:13Yeah.
12:14The authorities in order.
12:15Never mind the massive international crises.
12:17No, I'm not sure the minibar's included.
12:19Sue me.
12:20So, if you're an ambassador,
12:22does that mean you get to make, like, actual decisions?
12:25No.
12:26God, no.
12:27They've got, like, this whole committee.
12:28You're right, so everything does a policy.
12:29I just have to read it out.
12:30But then, like, why are you?
12:32I don't know.
12:33She just chose me.
12:34What's she like?
12:35Well, I mean, she's kind of like us.
12:39But she's...
12:41Like, I don't know.
12:45She's beautiful.
12:46Beautiful?
12:47Yeah.
12:48She's a fish.
12:49She's not a fish.
12:50She's not a fish and she's not a person.
12:51She's something else.
12:52Anyway, I'm not even supposed to be talking about this.
12:54Convenient.
12:55Barbara, do you really think I asked for this?
12:58I have no idea.
12:59Because it turns out my ex-husband,
13:01who can't even assemble flat-pack furniture,
13:03is a secret agent who lied about his job
13:05and is now saving the world.
13:07So, excuse me if I have questions.
13:09I'm making the most of this massive bath.
13:25We're putting an enormous amount of pressure on one man.
13:39I hope he's up to it.
13:44My father taught me to rely on instinct over intel.
13:50To trust my gut.
13:52He'd say,
13:59He sounds very wise, your dad.
14:02He is.
14:03You should meet him.
14:08What does your instinct say?
14:11I've seen ordinary people achieve extraordinary things.
14:16But they're usually travelling with the doctor.
14:18The doctor.
14:21And Barclay has you.
14:23By his side.
14:30The oceans cover 71% of this planet's surface.
14:36The human race is quite literally surrounded.
14:39And if it comes to war,
14:41I wonder if we even stand a chance.
14:45Let me take your mind off it.
14:47Are those tissue samples ready?
14:49Yeah.
14:50Two seconds.
14:58Are those tissue samples ready?
15:00Yep.
15:01Two seconds.
15:02It's not going to be a day, it's not going to be a day.
15:05It's going to be a day, it's going to be a day.
15:08It's going to be a day, and we'll see you next time.
15:13Anyway, let's go.
15:17I'm going to go.

27:39the H2O committee
27:42have breathed new models
27:43for environmental regulation
27:44the greens have been trying
27:45to achieve these targets for decades
27:47that time frame will be a challenge
27:48the H2O committee
27:49consulting with industry on that
27:51moving on
27:52the French consulate
27:53have lost an official complaint
27:55over General de Solier's
27:56removal from the hall
27:57they want to reinstate it
27:59tough
27:59they've seen the evidence
28:00she's denying it
28:01and
28:01she has influence
28:02I think it'd be dangerous
28:04to shut her out
28:05fine
28:05fine
28:06we've got bigger problems
28:07meanwhile
28:08we've been debating
28:09communication theories
28:10how the Homo Aqua
28:11ambassador is able to
28:12send and receive information
28:14seemingly instantaneously
28:15yeah we're looking into
28:16oceanic mycelium networks
28:17mycelium
28:18well that's the mushrooms
28:19mushrooms are the reproductive organs
28:20of mycelium networks
28:21wait
28:22I'm eating reproductive organs
28:23on my toes
28:24mycelium networks are the fungal threads
28:26believed to connect
28:27individual plants and trees
28:28to share and recycle vital minerals
28:30a lot of these theories
28:31are debatable
28:32yes I know
28:33but
28:33if algae and fungi
28:34interact in a similar way
28:36when in water
28:36or
28:37if water itself
28:38forms some kind of network
28:39Homo aqua
28:41amphibia
28:41grandis
28:42all these species
28:43could potentially
28:44be interconnected
28:45like a hive mind
28:46what if the pearl
28:47is their connection point
28:49or filter
28:50they're so far ahead of us
28:52it's difficult to comprehend
28:53we're literally children
28:54playing guessing games
28:55yes
28:57I need one
28:58atpox
28:59I sure

31:15hiya text on screen please
31:40once again I bid you welcome and bring to session this diplomatic congress
31:48world leaders have consulted with climate scientists and private enterprise on the
31:53subject of ocean pollution we can guarantee a 50 percent reduction by 2065 further reduction
32:01will then be exponential 2065 correct 50 percent yes explain
32:12it will take time to raise the finance and resources to tackle the problem but world governments are
32:21committed to making it a priority 40 years yes
32:25this is unacceptable an operation of this scale will stretch our resources to their limits
32:32we regret we cannot guarantee a significant reduction of ocean pollution in a shorter time frame
32:38so this is your final offer you've waited millions of years beneath the ocean
32:47now we are asking for just 40 more years to reset to give you what you want

38:21Reports are coming in from all over the world, from dozens of major cities.
38:26All across Manhattan, the sky is raining plastic.
38:31Please, all citizens, quickly search for the safe space.
38:35This is a hit.
38:36Please have issued a directive. The streets are not safe, everyone should stay in doors. Do not go outside.
38:44What have I done?
38:46They're declaring war.
38:49No!
39:06One hundred and fourteen years after she began her maiden voyage, the Titanic has finally reached her destination.
39:12Just one of the impossible sites of the streets of New York today.
39:16Streets that are now unrecognizable.
39:18World leaders have called for calm as the cleanup operation begins.
39:22Major cities around the world remain paralyzed with a damaged bill in the hundreds of billions.
39:27Former Albion party leader Felix Gladstock has branded Storm H2O as a call to arms.
39:33Every citizen of this planet is now at war.
39:37It is time to unite against the common entity.
39:40Homo Aquano.
39:42That's a high-USA.
39:43Americanci
39:48You're not the only of the female humans on the planet ñ
39:53It is time to unite this planet.
39:55Why do we hear from the Avastable, y'know, our children?
39:57Barclay!
39:59You work in Agbid! You're not ambassador!
40:01Your only language in your home, Ambassador,
40:03what is your... Everything you say you'll do...
40:05Barclay!
40:07Barclay!
40:09Barclay!
40:13Ambassador,
40:17we approach this Congress in good faith
40:19that your actions have jeopardized the diplomatic process.
40:23Humanity wants a peaceful settlement, not war.
40:27This war began a long time ago,
40:30and it was started by you.
40:32Now, we have simply returned what is yours.
40:44Look, there's words here I'm supposed to say,
40:46but the fact is you're cleverer than we are.
40:47That's obvious.
40:48He's off script again.
40:49This is like working with the Doctor.
40:51Look, I understand why you did this.
40:53Really, I do, but it was a mistake.
40:57People were hurt, and my family were out there,
41:00and they could have died.
41:02Now things are worse.
41:04We're scared.
41:06When humans are scared, they do terrible things.
41:09Are you threatening us?
41:10No, no, no, no, no, no, definitely not.
41:12No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No, I'm not.
41:14Enough, Barclay. I mean it, or God help me, I'll come down there.
41:17Get back to the text.
41:23The United Nations of the Earth demand an armistice agreement
41:26with immediate effect for the duration of these talks
41:29to safeguard humanity and protect a path towards long-term peace.
41:33There will be three conditions.
41:36One, that pollution of oceans and waterways ceases with immediate effect.
41:43Are you expecting this? Addendum two, paragraph one.
41:46World governments are working with industry on urgent solutions to this crisis.
41:50Our second requirement is formal designation of borders.
41:54Prepare for that, too. Okay, this is good.
41:56We are happy to consider large areas of all seas that are exclusive to Homo Aqua.
42:01Areas are not acceptable to us.
42:05We require all water.
42:08What does she mean? Clarify that?
42:10Sorry, all water.
42:12The entirety of all oceans and waterways.
42:16Sorry, excuse me, we're an island nation.
42:19Are we permitted passage across the oceans?
42:21No.
42:22The human race evolved to live on land.
42:25Not in the waters or the sky.
42:28She said sky.
42:29Do you want the skies now?
42:31You live in the ocean.
42:33The skies are not your concern.
42:35The air above the ocean is the ocean.
42:38This is our space.
42:40Are you seeking to ground all air transport?
42:44Transport over land is your concern.
42:47Transport across water will not be permitted.
42:50But that's ridiculous.
42:51Barclay, you're losing control.
42:53Trade between continents is an essential function of the modern world.
42:56Yes.
42:57Our continent relies on food imports.
42:59We will take questions from the ambassador.
43:01Barclay.
43:02There's no prep for this.
43:03We do a hap-responsive.
43:04You are amphibian.
43:05You don't own this guy.
43:06You cannot stab our people.
43:07We will take questions from the ambassador.
43:10You're holding us hostage.
43:11What about the channel channel?
43:12The world cannot function without cross-continental travel.
43:15How dare you?
43:16How dare you come in here and dictate the future of the human race?
43:20You are condemning developing countries to death.
43:22Hello!
43:23Hello!
43:24Hello!
43:25We will take questions from the ambassador only.
43:38Whoa.
43:39Voice has changed.
43:40Her intonation is male.
43:42Never mind the voice.
43:44Look at him.
43:46I'm getting spikes in testosterone, cortisol and keto-testosterone.
43:49What? So she's a man now?
43:51I... I don't know.
43:54Sorry.
43:56They're... they're sorry. They're... they're shut up.
44:02Shut up.
44:04Now.
44:06Shut up.
44:16How is she doing that?
44:18Incredible.
44:19Like I said, people are scared. They fear what they don't understand.
44:26They don't mean to a thing.
44:31Well done, Buckley.
44:35We'll need time.
44:37These proposals aren't something we can solve in days or weeks or even months.
44:46But while we negotiate, we insist on a formal armistice to maintain peace between our species.
44:54We have given two conditions for this armistice.
44:58There is a third.
45:00And it is simple.
45:02We stand here in your rooms of concrete and steel and dust and light,
45:11burning our eyes and our lungs.
45:13And we will endure no more.
45:18So our next meeting...
45:21will be here.
45:31But that's an ocean.
45:32How are they doing this?
45:33Check those coordinates.
45:36North of the equator, just off the coast of West Africa.
45:39Is it an island?
45:40No.
45:40They want to meet on a ship.
45:42What's the third coordinate?
45:44South?
45:44West?
45:45What's M?
45:45Barkley, that's open.
45:46Water, please clarify the third coordinate.
45:49Your metric unit for length and depth.
45:53You would like us to meet...
45:58underwater?
45:58You talk of peace and equality.
46:03So prove your commitment.
46:05And meet us in our world.
46:07You're a man's trench.
46:08One of the deepest waterways on the planet.
46:1125,000 feet, five miles down.
46:13Monsumersibles have imploded in less than half that.
46:15Barkley don't agree to anything.
46:17Will you meet us, Barkley?
46:20At the bottom of the ocean?
46:21She...
46:28Okay.
46:28Okay.
