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.
00:42You are not known to us. We are not known to our economy.
00:48I am mine.
00:50Woo-hoo!

01:51His name is Barclay Pierre 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.
02:03Kate Lethbridge-Stewart.
02:05Yeah, and now I'll book your taxes.
02:07Sit down.
02:08We weren't expecting this. Obviously.
02:14Me either.
02:15So help me understand. Out 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. Never.
02:28I mean, I had a goldfish once. Is that relevant?
02:32This isn't a joke, Mr. Dupont.
02:33I'm not joking. He 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 allocable.
03:00Whatever he's done, we're not part of it. We're not even together.
03:06Tina's child, Kirby, 16, lives with the mother studying A-levels.
03:11Seize all devices and bring them in professionally, right now.
03:13My family have got nothing to do with this.
03:16I don't even know why I'm here. I never asked for this to happen, okay?
03:21But I do want to help.
03:23And the thing is...
03:25You need me.
03:28I'm all right.
03:31Well, am I right?
03:35The first day of H2O diplomacy has concluded with an abrupt change of ambassador.
03:42Sir Jonathan Hines has made no comment over his dismissal,
03:45and 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 taken to us.
04:06Prime Minister.
04:07The H2O committee will not allow a random civilian to represent them.
04:10Okay, you ought to go back in that room and tell her.
04:13We choose our ambassador, and the community's decision is to file her.
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 you, Ned.
04:23Sorry.
04:24That'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?
04:31Please, Kate, we're relying on you.
04:41Thank you for this unscheduled consultation.
04:44I am Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, commander-in-chief of the Unified Intelligence Task Force,
04:49and representative of the H2O committee.
04:53The committee has requested urgent action regarding the role of human ambassador.
04:59Rather than appoint this civilian,
05:02they request that you trust in our original candidate.
05:06You talk of trust.
05:09While meeting in secret.
05:11In 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.
05:49Do you ever know?
05:55Is that a thing?
05:56Because I'm Barclay.
05:59It's Scottish.
06:00Well, my grandma's.
06:02Grandma's Scottish.
06:04My title will not translate.
06:07But you may call me Salt.
06:12Salt?
06:13Listen, I'm just a regular guy.
06:21I work in an office.
06:23I don't know about diplomacy or politics.
06:25I don't even know.
06:26Be some suit.
06:27We chose you for your humanity and compassion.
06:30Not your expertise.
06:31Your leaders would replace you.
06:34But what do you want?
06:36I'm fine with whatever they decide.
06:40I'm fine with whatever they decide.
06:40No.
06:41What do you really think?
06:43I think this process is about everybody, right?
06:52The whole world.
06:55It's not just prime ministers and presidents.
06:57It's real people like me.
06:59They worry about their bills and their kids.
07:02I mean, I'm a nobody.
07:04I get it.
07:04But I think...
07:07Maybe it's time people like me had more of a voice.
07:11We hear you, Ambassador.
07:16It is decided.
07:19Your request has been heard and denied.
07:23Barclay will be present at dawn tomorrow.
07:26Our negotiations will end.
07:32Where are you taking me?
07:35Huh?
07:36What about my family?
07:38Please, I don't want to be shot.
07:41No, no, no, no, no, no.
07:46Are you going to kill me?
07:50I forgot my gun.
07:51Really?
07:52No.
07:54Ah.
07:56Look, look, look, look.
07:57I'm not a spy.
07:58Or a collaborator.
07:59And I wasn't disrespecting anyone if that's how it sounded.
08:01All right?
08:01My mouth, it just goes an autopilot.
08:04I mean, the same thing happened when I proposed to my ex.
08:06It took me about 20 minutes to get to the ring.
08:08Barclay, I 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.
08:30But all unit wants is a peaceful settlement.
08:32But there are levels and levels of politics at play here.
08:36International rivalries that go way back.
08:39Truth is, I've spent my whole life fighting for this planet.
08:44Now, with your help,
08:45I get to build a better world for everyone.
08:49I 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.
09:00And I'm prepared to give you a chance.
09:03Okay.
09:03So what happens now?
09:10Now,
09:11your life changes.
09:19The passengers transport now arriving at Diplomatic Hotel.
09:23Clear the corridors.
09:23Security protocols.
09:39All delegates and Diplomatic staff are being relocated for their own safety.
09:42All right, but for how long?
09:43What about my family?
09:44Can I call them?
09:45Barkley!
09:46Dad.
09:47There you go.
09:48What the hell's going on?
09:49I know, I know, I know.
09:50Barkley will be present at dawn tomorrow.
09:53Or negotiations will end.
09:57We hear you.
09:58That's what she said to him.
09:58We.
09:59And if that's true,
10:00how is she communicating with her people?
10:01Maybe she's wearing an implant.
10:03Well, they could have shared consciousness.
10:04Or some kind of mycorrhizal network.
10:06Maybe they've mastered sound
10:07in a way we don't understand.
10:08Using frequencies we can't even hear.
10:11Like Mariah Carey.
10:12I noticed something earlier
10:14when Sir Jonathan presented the flower.
10:17Everyone focused on her.
10:18But look.
10:19The exact moment she inhales,
10:26they all do.
10:28Even the ones in the water.
10:31She's softening her language.
10:33She used sarcasm.
10:34Like she's learning, adapting.
10:37They want an everyman as ambassador.
10:39But is that what she is?
10:40Because she's extraordinary.
10:42Those remains are en route to the lab.
10:44And the H2O committee are kicking off.
10:47They want to see you.
10:49So we're just accepting her choice of ambassador.
10:51Warga's not up to it.
10:53Their race has survived under the sea for millennia
10:56with centuries of social, evolutionary
10:57and 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.
11:14I volunteered.
11:16Didn't want to miss this.
11:17Let's prep one for imaging.
11:19Mm-hmm.
11:20Careful.
11:20Careful.
11:20Careful.
11:26We'll take tissue samples.
11:33Prep some slides.
11:41You...
11:42You're working 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.
11:49On purpose.
11:50So 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.
11:56Not to anyone.
11:56Who are we going to tell?
11:57We're prisoners.
11:58But Dad is famous.
11:59Okay, just look at the bright side.
12:01Look at the view.
12:01It's nice.
12:02And this room is amazing, isn't it?
12:03It's huge.
12:04Am I the only person living in the real world right now?
12:07What about work and school?
12:09Kirby's got that coach trip on Thursday.
12:12A coach trip?
12:13Yeah.
12:13Oh, I'm glad you've got your priorities 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, God, no.
12:26They'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.
12:35What's she like?
12:37Well, I mean, she's kind of like us.
12:40But she's...
12:41Like, I don't know.
12:42She's beautiful.
12:46Beautiful?
12:46Yeah.
12:47She's a fish.
12:48She's not a fish.
12:49She's not a fish, and she's not a person.
12:51She's something else.
12:53Anyway, I'm not even supposed to be talking about this.
12:55Convenient.
12:55Barbara, do you really think I asked for this?
12:58I have no idea.
13:00Because it turns out my ex-husband,
13:01who can't even assemble flat-pack furniture,
13:04is a secret agent who lied about his job,
13:06and is now saving the world.
13:07So, excuse me if I have questions.
13:10I'm making the most of this massive bath.
13:34We're putting an enormous amount of pressure on one man.
13:37I hope he's up to it.
13:44My father taught me to rely on instinct over intel.
13:50Trust my gut.
13:52He'd say,
13:54He sounds very wise, your dad.
14:02He is.
14:03You should meet him.
14:04What does your instinct say?
14:11I've seen ordinary people achieve extraordinary things,
14:16but they're usually traveling with the doctor.
14:18And Barclay has you by his side.
14:29The oceans cover 71% of this planet's surface.
14:35The human race is quite literally surrounded.
14:39And if it comes to war,
14:42I wonder if we even stand a chance.
14:47Let me take your mind off it.
14:48Are those tissue samples ready?
15:00Yep.

24:52Why?
24:54Barkley, no.
24:58Because we were stupid.
25:00That's the truth of it.
25:05And the whole planet's going to hell right now
25:07because we didn't understand the consequences.
25:10But now you do.
25:12Yeah. Yeah, now we do.
25:14This is too risky.
25:16No, Wade.
25:17Still every day, water companies are pumping poison
25:19and sewage into our rivers and oceans,
25:20all the while dishing out bonuses to their bosses.
25:22And the thing is, we are letting them get away with it.
25:26We're just sat at home flicking through our phones,
25:28making tea thinking it's someone else's problem.
25:30But it's not.
25:31This is my fault.
25:32We all played our part.
25:33Now we have to help fix it.
25:35And the thing is, our kids know this.
25:38Our kids.
25:40They're way ahead of us.
25:42Why aren't we listening?
25:45Well, today's the day we stop.
25:50I think you are my favorite human.
25:55I think you are my favorite human.
25:57Oh, I feel amazing.
25:58I'm sorry.
25:59But I do.
26:00It's like I want to run.
26:01I just want to run.
26:02I just want to run for miles.
26:03I've got so much energy right there.
26:04What?
26:05You're ridiculous.
26:06You know I was thinking about you today.
26:07When I was standing up there.
26:08like a lemon.
26:09I was thinking about you.

27:49consulting with industry on that moving on the french consulate have lost an official complaint
27:55over general de solier's removal from the hall they want to reinstate it tough they've seen the
27:59evidence she's denying it and she has influence i think it'd be dangerous to shut her out fine
28:05fine we've got bigger problems meanwhile we've been debating communication theories how the homo aqua
28:11ambassador is able to send and receive information seemingly instantaneously yeah we're looking into
28:16oceanic mycelium networks mycelium but that's the mushrooms mushrooms are the reproductive organs of
28:21mycelium networks wait i'm eating reproductive organs on my toes mycelium networks are the fungal
28:26threads believed to connect individual plants and trees to share and recycle vital minerals a lot of
28:31these theories are debatable yes i know but if algae and fungi interact in a similar way when in water
28:36or if water itself forms some kind of network homo aqua amphibia grandis all these species could
28:43potentially be interconnected like a hive mind what if the pearl is their connection point or filter
28:50they're so far ahead of us it's difficult to comprehend we're literally children playing guessing games

31:48world leaders have consulted with climate scientists and private enterprise on the subject
31:54of ocean pollution we can guarantee a 50 percent reduction by 2065 further reduction will then be
32:02exponential 2065 correct 50 percent yes
32:10explain
32:12it will take time to raise the finance and resources to tackle the problem but world governments are committed
32:21to making it a priority 40 years yes this is unacceptable an operation of this scale will stretch our
32:31resources to their limits we regret we cannot guarantee a significant reduction of ocean pollution in a shorter
32:37time frame
32:40so this is your final offer you've waited millions of years beneath the ocean

39:58Barclay, you work in Agbe. You're not ambassador.
40:01You have only language in your form, ambassador.
40:03What is your return?
40:04Everything you say you'll do.
40:05Barclay.
40:05Barclay.
40:08Barclay.
40:09Barclay.
40:14Ambassador, we approach this Congress in good faith that your actions have jeopardized the diplomatic process.
40:23Humanity wants a peaceful settlement, not war.
40:27This war?
40:28Began a long time ago.
40:30And it was started by you.
40:33Now, we have simply returned what is yours.
40:44Look, there's words here I'm supposed to say, but the fact is you're cleverer than we are.
40:48That's obvious.
40:49He's off script again.
40:50This is like working with the doctor.
40:51Look, I understand why you did this.
40:53Really, I do.
40:55But it was a mistake.
40:57People were hurt.
40:58And my family were out there.
41:01And they could have died.
41:03Now things are worse.
41:05We're scared.
41:07When humans are scared, they do terrible things.
41:09Are you threatening us?
41:11No, no, no, no, no, no.
41:12Definitely not.
41:13No, I'm sorry.
41:13I'm sorry.
41:14No, I'm not.
41:14Enough, Barclay.
41:15I mean it.
41:16I mean it.
41:16Oh, God help me.
41:16I'll come down there.
41:17Get back to the text.
41:18The United Nations of the Earth demand an armistice agreement with immediate effect for the duration of these talks to safeguard humanity and protect a path towards a long-term peace.
41:34There will be three conditions.
41:37One, that pollution of oceans and waterways ceases with immediate effect.
41:44Are you expecting this?
41:45Addendum 2, paragraph 1.
41:47World governments are working with industry on urgent solutions to this crisis.
41:51Our second requirement is formal designation of borders.
41:55Prepare for that too.
41:56Okay, 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.
42:09What does she mean?
42:10Clarify that?
42:11Sorry, 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?
42:22No.
42:23The human race evolved to live on land.
42:26Not in the waters or the sky.
42:29She said sky.
42:30Do you want the skies now?
42:32You live in the ocean.
42:33The skies are not your concern.
42:35The air above the ocean is the ocean.
42:39This is our space.
42:41Are you seeking to ground all air transport?
42:44Transport over land is your concern.
42:48Transport across water will not be permitted.
42:51But that's ridiculous.
42:52Barclay, you're losing control.
42:53Trade between continents is an essential function of the modern world.
42:57Yes.
42:58Our continent relies on food imports.
43:00We will take questions from the ambassador.
43:02Barclay, there's no prep for this.
43:03We do a half-responsive.
43:04You are amphibian.
43:06You don't own this guy.
43:07You cannot stab our people.
43:08We will take questions from the ambassador.
43:11You're holding us hostage.
43:12What about the channel tunnel?
43:13The world cannot function without cross-continental travel.
43:15How dare you?
43:17How dare you come in here and dictate the future of the human race?
43:21You are condemning developing countries to death.

43:45Look at him.
43:46I'm getting spikes in testosterone, cortisol and keto-testosterone.
43:49What?
43:50So she's a man now?
43:51I...
43:52I don't know.
43:54Sorry.
43:56They're...
43:57They're sorry.
43:58They're...
43:58They're...
43:58They're...
43:58Shut up.
44:03Shut up.
44:04Now.
44:06Shut up.
44:12How is she doing that?
44:13Incredible.
44:14Like I said, people are scared.
44:15They fear what they don't understand.
44:19They don't mean to a thing.
44:21They don't mean to a thing.
44:22They fear what they don't understand.
44:25They don't mean to a thing.
44:27They fear what they don't understand.
44:29They don't mean to a thing.
44:30They fear what they don't understand.
44:31Well done, Barkley.
44:32Well done, Barkley.
44:33We'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, and it is simple.
45:02We stand here in your rooms of concrete and steel and dust and light burning our eyes and
45:12our lungs.
45:14And we will endure no more.
45:18So our next meeting will be here.
45:22Put that to the ocean.
45:32How are they doing this?
45:33Check those coordinates.
45:34North of the equator, just off the coast of West Africa.
45:39Is it an island?
45:40No.
45:41They want to meet on a ship.
45:42What's the third coordinate?
45:43South?
45:44West?
45:45What's M?
45:46Barkley, that's Opal.
45:47Water, please clarify the third coordinate.
45:49Your metric unit for length and depth.
45:52You would like us to meet under water.
45:59You talk of peace and equality.
46:03So prove your commitment and meet us in our world.
46:07You're a man's trench, one of the deepest waterways on the planet, 25,000 feet, five
46:12miles down.
46:13Man submersibles have imploded in less than half that, but you don't agree to anything.
46:18Will you meet her, Sparkly?
46:20At the bottom of the ocean?
46:27Okay.
46:27Okay.
