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.
00:42The Unified Intelligence Task Force is now unknown.
00:46We have a Cliford Elementary.
00:52The Unified Intelligence Compassion.
00:55The Unified Intelligence Program is now unknown.
01:59How long I scream by the time I get downstairs.
02:03Kate Lethbridge-Stewart.
02:05Yeah, and now I'll book your taxes.
02:07Sit down.
02:10We weren't expecting this.
02:13Obviously.
02:14Me either.
02:15So help me understand.
02:16Out of nearly eight billion humans on this planet,
02:19why 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.
02:31Is 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.
02:47Back with Pierre DuPont, born 151182.
02:49Get me his immediate family.
02:51Yes, ma'am.
02:53Parents deceased.
02:54Married Barbara Numai, June 2003.
02:57Divorced November 2022.
02:58Split was amicable.
02:59Whatever he's done, we're not part of it.
03:02We're not even together.
03:07Tina's child, Kirby, 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.
03:18I never ask for this to happen, okay?
03:20But I do want to help.
03:23And the thing is...
03:25You need me.
03:27I'm all right.
03:31Well, I'm all 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 dangerous.
04:06Prime Minister.
04:07The H2O committee will not allow a random civilian to represent them.
04:10Kate, you ought to go back in that room and tell her.
04:13We choose our ambassador and the community's decision is final.
04:17I do it myself.
04:18But it doesn't look good, does it?
04:19If I'm the one in there when war breaks out.
04:21Not when you can blame you, Ned.
04:22I'm sorry.
04:24That's not what I meant.
04:27Maybe it's better woman to woman.
04:29If that's what she is.
04:30Is that what she is?
04:31No, no.
04:34Please, Kate.
04:36We're relying on you.
04:37Thank you for this unscheduled consultation.
04:43I am Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, Commander-in-Chief of the Unified Intelligence Task Force and representative of the H2O committee.
04:53The 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.
05:06You 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.
05:28Come 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 grammar's.
06:02Gramsco.
06:03Scottish.
06:04My title will not translate.
06:07But you may call me Salt.
06:12Salt.
06:16I...
06:16Listen.
06:20I'm just a regular guy.
06:22I work in an office.
06:23I don't know about diplomacy or politics.
06:25I don't even know if decent suits you.
06:27I chose you for your humanity and compassion, not your expertise.
06:32Your leaders would replace you.
06:35But what do you want?
06:37I'm...
06:37I'm fine with whatever they decide.
06:40No.
06:41What do you really think?
06:43I think this process is about everybody, right?
06:54The whole world.
06:56It'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...
07:06Maybe it's time people like me get more of a voice.
07:11We hear you, Ambassador.
07:17It is decided.
07:19Your request has been heard and denied.
07:21Barclay 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.
07:39No, no, no, no, no, no.
07:46Are you going to kill me?
07:50I forgot my gun.
07:51Really?
07:53No.
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?
08:02My 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.
08:07Barclay.
08:09I need someone I can work with.
08:12Well, yeah, of course.
08:14Of course you do, yeah.
08:16And I think I can work with you.
08:22Well, hang on.
08:25I mean, like five minutes ago, you're trying to get rid of me.
08:28I have to tread carefully.
08:30All 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.
08:38The truth is, I've spent my whole life fighting for this planet.
08:43Now, with your help,
08:45I 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 and you ended up in...
08:54the taxis plot, I remember.
08:56But Homo Aqua chose you for a reason.
08:59And I'm prepared to give you a chance.
09:03Okay.
09:03I have...
09:04So what happens now?
09:08Now, your 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, I know.
09:50Barkley will be present at dawn tomorrow.
09:53All 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.
10:02Well, they could have shared consciousness.
10:04Or some kind of mycorrhizal network.
10:06Maybe they've mastered sound in a way we don't understand.
10:08Using frequencies we can't even air.
10:11Like Mariah Carey.
10:12I noticed something earlier when Sir Jonathan presented the flower.
10:17Everyone focused on her.
10:18But look.
10:23The exact moment she inhales,
10:26they all do.
10:28Even the ones in the water.
10:31She's softening her language.
10:32She 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 and technological advantage.
11:00She'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.
11:19Careful.
11:31We'll take tissue samples.
11:33Perhaps some slides.
11:34You...
11:38You work in admin.
11:44You're not an ambassador.
11:45You couldn't even finish your wedding speech.
11:47Only because your dad spilled wine all over it.
11:49On 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.
11:59Okay, just look at the bright side.
12:01Look at the view.
12:01That's...
12:02It'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?
12:08And 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.
12:17Uh, no, 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.
12:34She 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.
12:45She'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.
13:12Oh.
13:19We're putting an enormous amount of pressure on one man.
13:37I hope he's up to it.
13:41My father taught me to rely on instinct over intel.
13:50Trust my gut.
13:52He'd say,
13:53He sounds very wise, your dad.
14:02He is.
14:02You should meet him.
14:08What does your instinct say?
14:11I've seen ordinary people achieve extraordinary things,
14:16but they're usually traveling with the doctor.
14:20And Barclay has you,
14:23by his side.
14:24The oceans cover 71%
14:32of this planet's surface.
14:36The 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.
15:01Two seconds.
15:01Two seconds.
15:18You're late.
15:40Your citizenship is approved.
15:43Welcome to Britain.
15:48What about my mother?
15:50Hey!
15:51What about my mother?
16:02Thanks, Maria.
16:03Hello, darling.
16:04Can't stop.
16:05Gallery opens Friday and Sue's got COVID.
16:07It's been chaos.
16:08Filming later, yeah?
16:09Yep.
16:09Oh, your guests.
16:10They're waiting in the dining room.
16:13General, sorry to keep you.
16:15Hey, take your time.
16:17Look at this spread.
16:18Homo aqua tissue samples.
16:21Know thine enemy.
16:23Oh, I haven't eaten all day.
16:26We know what they're going to ask for, right?
16:28What do we do?
16:29Don't worry.
16:31Leave the fish to us.
16:32It'll be the death of the energy industry,
16:33of your livelihood.
16:35We've run simulations.
16:37Look at the impact of wars
16:38and the pandemic on Western economies
16:40and multiply that by a hundred.
16:42We'll be sliding into recession.
16:44Public are already panicked.
16:46My mother was in the bank today
16:48and take her account.
16:49Yeah?
16:50Which one?
16:52The president's sole focus
16:53is to protect the stability
16:55of the U.S. economy.
16:57And mine
16:57is to protect my companies.
17:00That's what we hoped you'd say.
17:02But with the unit running the diplomacy,
17:04there's constant opposition.
17:05Kate Lethbridge-Stewart
17:08has influence
17:08with the H2O committee
17:11and with your prime minister.
17:14Not to worry.
17:15Harry's attentions are divided at the moment
17:17and he always listens
17:18to his biggest donor.
17:21Good.
17:22We'll need you on side
17:23when we brief.
17:25Oh, you had me at recession.
17:26Oh, shh.
17:45Oh, shh.
17:46How's he on the news?
17:57He's supposed to be a secret.
17:59The H2O diplomacy committee
18:00are denying all interview requests.
18:03The only thing we do know
18:04about Barclay-Pierre Dupont,
18:06our new ambassador,
18:07is that the world is watching.
18:09Copy that.
18:10The post is clear.
18:11The post is clear.
18:12Go on, Dad.
18:17Morning, Colonel.
18:18Mrs Bingham.
18:19Commander.
18:20What do we know about the leak?
18:22The photo was emailed to the press
18:23by an anonymous source.
18:25Except I've cross-matched the image
18:27with CCTV from the hotel.
18:29The photographer was General Dominique de Solier,
18:32the French representative.
18:34Kelsey Preece.
18:35She's been undermining NATO
18:36since she first drew breath.
18:38And if she discredits units,
18:40she gets more influence
18:41over the H2O committee.
18:41Get the French ambassador on the phone.
18:44I'm in the mood for a bollocking.
18:45Press Association is still
18:46demanding access to the hall.
18:48I'm not sure we want to get them offside.
18:49Fine, let them in.
18:51But no live TV.
18:5250 people maximum,
18:53and anyone who steps out of line
18:54gets barred.
19:01I'm sorry, General de Solier,
19:02your access to the hall has been revoked.
19:04Come with us, please.
19:07It's not possible.
19:08You can't refuse to enter.
19:09Just stick to the text on your screen
19:11and you'll be fine.
19:12Keep your body language
19:13and your vocal to a neutral
19:14at all times.
19:15No close arms,
19:16no raised voice,
19:17no sign of aggression
19:18or impatience.
19:20Everything you say or do
19:21or think has to come through us.
19:22What's the point of being
19:23ambassador for all I've done
19:24is raiding?
19:25There is a team of 43 people
19:27working around the clock
19:28on this document.
19:29UN diplomats
19:30and wartime negotiators
19:31vetting every last syllable.
19:32Prime ministers, presidents, royalty.
19:34Frankly, it's a miracle
19:34we got past the contents page.
19:36You cannot go rogue.
19:37Are we ready?
19:38We're all behind you.
19:40Well, yeah, actually,
19:40I'm the one standing up there.
19:42You can do this.
19:46I can't stop shaking.
20:06Tell the press no camera flashes
20:09and keep an eye on Barclay's obs.
20:11Blood pressure 138 over 90.
20:13Bit high.
20:14Horses 82 and steady.
20:16Is Downing Street online?
20:18Prime minister?
20:19Yes, we're here.
20:20All right.
20:21Good luck, everyone.
20:23Mrs. Bingham?
20:26All concealed.
20:27Ambassador, are you okay?
20:50Ambassador?
20:52Barclay?
20:52Hmm?
20:53Yeah?
20:53Oh, sorry.
20:54Yes, yes, yes.
20:54I'm here.
20:55It's fine.
20:57Hello, again.
21:24That's not scripted.
21:25Barclay.
21:27Sorry.
21:31I bid you welcome, Ambassador,
21:33and bring to session
21:34this diplomatic Congress.
21:36On behalf of all nations,
21:38I would like to say
21:39how sorry I am about your children.
21:43Are you a parent?
21:45Yes.
21:46Yes, he's a parent.
21:47Teenage child, Kirby.
21:49Barclay, just say yes.
21:50Yes.
21:52I can't imagine what that was like for you.
21:54Your apology is appreciated.
21:57Now back to the text, please.
22:00We begin today by hearing proposals
22:02to formalize our peace treaty.
22:03But first,
22:05we request
22:06a glass of water.
22:08Water from the river.
22:15Coming?
22:17Water from the river.
22:20From the river?
22:22What?
22:22They drink river water?
22:24Barclay, read the screen.
22:27We will arrange that immediately.
22:29Come on, come on, come on.
22:36Come on, come on.
22:44If Acha returns the agenda with Lysen...
22:47We will wait.
22:49Okay.
22:51Oh, okay.
22:52They...
22:52They said Acha.
22:54Keep your eyes on the water.
23:06Don't turn your back.
23:07Not for one second.
23:08Glass requires decontamination.
23:31Shall I place it in the airlock?
23:32The water is not for us.
23:35It is for you.
23:38Sorry.
23:41Sorry, I don't...
23:42I don't understand.
23:42You will drink it.
23:44Hold on, Barclay.
23:45Get me intel on that water.
23:47You will drink.
23:50Uh...
23:50Just, like...
23:56Actually drink it.
23:57E. coli is guaranteed.
23:59Dysentery, meningitis,
24:00and Legionnaire's disease.
24:02Barclay, do not drink the water.
24:03What do I...
24:04What do I say?
24:04Stand by.
24:08Um, with respect,
24:14I am unable to drink this.
24:16Why?
24:18The water is contaminated.
24:20Why?
24:20She knows why.
24:21Skip to 16, paragraph 12.
24:24We're aware of the current pollution crisis,
24:27and I've been...
24:27These are the words of a politician.
24:30Vetted and craven and hollow.
24:31You would answer.
24:36Barclay, stick to the script.
24:38Barclay,
24:39Ambassador, refer to your screen.
24:41Barclay,
24:52Why?
24:54Barclay, no.
24:58Because we were stupid.
25:01That's the truth of it.
25:02And the whole planet's going to hell right now,
25:07because we didn't understand the consequences.
25:10But now you do.
25:12Yeah.
25:13Yeah, now we do.
25:14This is too risky.
25:16No, wait.
25:17Still, every day,
25:18water companies are pumping poison and sewage
25:19into our rivers and oceans,
25:20all the while dishing out bonuses to their bosses.
25:22And the thing is,
25:23we are letting them get away with it.
25:26We're just sat at home,
25:27flicking through our phones,
25:28making tea,
25:29thinking it's someone else's problem.
25:30But it's not.
25:31This is my fault.
25:32We all played our part.
25:34Now we have to help fix it.
25:35And the thing is,
25:36our kids know this.
25:38Our kids.
25:40They're way ahead of us.
25:43Why aren't we listening?
25:47Today's the day
25:48we stop.
25:55I think you are my favorite human.
25:57Oh, I feel amazing.
26:25I'm sorry,
26:26but I do.
26:27It's like I want to run.
26:28I just want to run for miles.
26:29I've got so much energy right there.
26:31What?
26:32You're ridiculous.
26:34You know,
26:34I was thinking about you today.
26:36When I was standing up there,
26:37like a lemon,
26:39I was thinking about all those things you told me,
26:40you and your hippie mates.
26:41They're not hippies,
26:42and that's not even a word anymore.
26:44Well,
26:44I just wish that I'd listen sooner.
26:47I'm listening now.
26:48Promise you.
26:49Who even are you?
26:50I don't know,
26:51but I like it.
26:52You're on telly again.
26:54You're always on telly,
26:55aren't you?
26:55They're calling you passionate.
26:57Passionate?
26:58What's me?
26:58You haven't been passionate
26:59since Christmas 2010.
27:01Oh,
27:01oh.
27:02Oh,
27:03yeah.
27:04Honey is a treat.
27:05Here,
27:06tastes better than river water.
27:08Mm.
27:10Do you know,
27:10it just hit me,
27:11just now.
27:11this is history
27:14in the making,
27:15right now,
27:16and I'm part of it.
27:17I'm a,
27:18I'm a historical figure.
27:19It's crazy,
27:20isn't it?
27:20Okay.
27:22So what's she like then,
27:24your fishy ambassador?
27:28Are you jealous?
27:29Please.
27:30She is.
27:31What?
27:32You're jealous?
27:33Can we order room service now?
27:35Sure.
27:38I'll have the fish.
27:39The H2O Committee
27:42have prepped new models
27:43for environmental regulation.
27:44The Greens have been trying
27:45to achieve these targets
27:46for decades.
27:47That time frame
27:48will be a challenge.
27:49The H2O Committee
27:49consulting with industry
27:50on 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.
27:58They want to reinstate it.
27:59Tough,
27:59they've seen the evidence.
28:00She's denying it,
28:01and she has influence.
28:03I think it'd be dangerous
28:04to shut her out.
28:05Fine.
28:06Fine.
28:06We've got bigger problems.
28:07Meanwhile,
28:08we've been debating
28:09communication theories
28:10how the Homo aqua ambassador
28:11is able to send
28:12and receive information
28:14seemingly instantaneously.
28:15Yeah,
28:16we're looking into
28:16oceanic mycelium networks.
28:17Mycelium?
28:18Well,
28:18that's the mushrooms.
28:19Mushrooms are the
28:20reproductive organs
28:20of mycelium networks.
28:22Wait,
28:22I'm eating reproductive organs
28:23on my toes.
28:24Mycelium networks
28:25are the fungal threads
28:26believed to connect
28:27individual plants
28:28and trees
28:28to share and recycle
28:30vital minerals.
28:30A lot of these theories
28:31are debatable.
28:32Yes,
28:32I know,
28:33but if algae and fungi
28:34interact in a similar way
28:36when in water,
28:36or if water itself
28:38forms some kind of network.
28:40Homo aqua,
28:41amphibia,
28:41grandis,
28:42all these species
28:43could potentially
28:44be interconnected.
28:45Like a hive mind?
28:47What if the pearl
28:47is their connection point?
28:49Or filter?
28:50God,
28:50they're so far ahead of us
28:52it's difficult to comprehend.
28:53We're literally children
28:54playing guessing games.
28:55They're so far ahead of us.
29:25They're so far ahead of us.
29:28They're so far ahead of us.
29:29They're so far ahead of us.
29:30They're so far ahead of us.
29:31They're so far ahead of us.
29:31Couldn't sleep?
29:43I just read your big speech again.
29:46Mm-hmm.
29:48It's more of a ramble.
29:52Made me...
29:53It made me proud, though.
29:56Really?
29:59But...
29:59with all the attention,
30:01are you gonna be safe doing this?
30:04Yeah, of course.
30:05Do you promise?
30:06Yes.
30:08Promise.
30:13They're moving you out of here tomorrow.
30:15Putting you in a proper safe house.
30:16Away from all this.
30:18Okay?
30:21I'd rather stay here with you.
30:23Whole world's changing, Dad.
30:27Maybe it needed to.
30:29Maybe it's for the best.
30:30Your family will be moved to a safe house this morning.
30:59We're separating civilians from diplomatic staff.
31:02Look, I'll see you before they go.
31:03No, I'm sorry.
31:03We'll hear all day.
31:04Berkeley High, Rosemary Hunt.
31:05Nice suit.
31:06But what can you tell us about
31:08Homework was demands?
31:08How confident are you
31:10that we can achieve within ways?
31:11How are you coping under the pressure?
31:13What happens if you mess this up?
31:15Text on screen, please.
31:40Once again, I bid you welcome
31:45and bring to session this diplomatic congress.
31:49World leaders have consulted with climate scientists
31:51and private enterprise on the subject of ocean pollution.
31:55We can guarantee a 50% reduction by 2065.
32:00Further reduction will then be exponential.
32:032065.
32:03Correct.
32:0750%.
32:07Yes, sir.
32:11Explain.
32:15It will take time to raise the finance
32:17and resources to tackle the problem.
32:20But world governments are committed
32:21to making it a priority.
32:2340 years.
32:24Yes, sir.
32:25This is unacceptable.
32:29An operation of this scale
32:30will stretch our resources to their limits.
32:33We regret we cannot guarantee
32:34a significant reduction of ocean pollution
32:36in a shorter time frame.
32:40So this is your final offer.
32:44You've waited millions of years beneath the ocean.
32:48Now we are asking for just 40 more years to reset
32:52to give you what you want.
32:54You are asking
32:55for 15,000 revolutions of the sun
33:01when scores of us are dying every day.
33:06Should we wait
33:07while your engines deafen us?
33:12While your trawlers ravage our home?
33:16While we choke
33:17on your plastic
33:19and sewage?
33:21We cannot hear
33:24or see
33:26or breathe.
33:29So tell me
33:30why we should live
33:32like this
33:33for just one day longer.
33:38I'm sorry.
33:39I'm so sorry.
33:40I believe that you are sorry.
33:46But are your leaders?
33:49The world is united
33:50in its desire for meaningful change.
33:57Do they wish
33:58that they could achieve this sooner?
34:04Yes, of course.
34:06Do they want
34:07to accelerate this process?
34:11We are committed
34:13to undoing the damage
34:15we have inflicted
34:15on our planet.
34:16How committed?
34:19It is our greatest desire.
34:25Then we shall grant it.
34:27Sorry, what do you mean?
34:35Your greatest desire
34:36is happening.
34:38Is happening.
34:39No.
34:39No.
35:09And what's happening?
35:12I don't know.
35:15Do you hear that?
35:17Is it a storm?
35:20There's no storm.
35:25It's plastic.
35:27Mum. Mum.
35:29Oh, my God.
35:37Turn the car around.
35:38Turn it around.
35:39Get us out of here.
35:49It's happening everywhere all at once.
35:51The plastic's coming out the oceans into our cities.
35:53It's not just the oceans.
35:54It's coming out the Thames, out the Nile, the Hudson.
35:56Lock down the building.
35:57Get everyone to the lower levels.
35:59Come on. Come on. Move it.
36:02Keep going. Keep going.
36:05Barkley, we need to leave right now.
36:06Come on.
36:08Now, you have to stop.
36:14We are cleaning up your mess.
36:20Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait.
36:22You okay?
36:23Barkley, what's happening?
36:25They're cleaning up the ocean.
36:26The plastic, the pollution, all of it.
36:27They're giving it back.
36:28We're in a car. It's chaos.
36:30What? You're outside.
36:31We can't get to the safe house.
36:32We can't cross the river.
36:33Just come to the hall.
36:36Check the driver.
36:36It's Imperial House.
36:38Imperial House.
36:39Can you take us to Imperial House?
36:40Okay.
36:41Let's go.
36:55Let's go.
36:56Let it go.
36:56Don't worry, okay?
36:57We're getting out.
37:01Barkley, listen to me.
37:04We have to run for it.
37:06But I need to help the driver.
37:07See?
37:07No, don't see him.
37:08Listen.
37:09Get out and run in there and find your dad.
37:11I'll be right behind you.
37:12Promise me.
37:13Just run.
37:14I promise.
37:15Go.
37:23Hey.
37:25Can you hear me?
37:26I'm so sorry.
37:42Barkley, where are you?
37:44We're here.
37:44Find Kirby.
37:45They're outside.
37:46I'm so sorry.
38:16Go, go, go.
38:20Go, go, go.
38:21Come on, come on, come on.
38:22Reports are coming in from all over the world,
38:24from dozens of major cities.
38:27All across Manhattan, the sky is raining plastic.
38:35It needs to be issued a directive.
38:38The streets are not safe.
38:40Everyone should stay in doors.
38:42Do not go outside.
38:43What have I done?
38:46They're declaring war.
38:48114 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.
39:17Streets that are now unrecognizable.
39:19World 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.
39:28Former Albion party leader Felix Gladstock has branded Storm H2O as a call to arms.
39:34Every citizen of this planet is now at war.
39:37It is time to unite against the common entity.
39:41Homo aqua.
39:43As a complete former ex wurden.
39:55Karma!
39:58Barclay...
39:59You're working on me!
40:00You're not Ambassador!
40:04Everything you say will do.
40:05Barclay!
40:06we're fuckling
40:10ambassador
40:15we approached this congress in good faith
40:19that your actions have jeopardized the diplomatic process
40:22humanity wants a peaceful settlement not war
40:25this war began 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,
40:46but 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.
40:59And 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, definitely not.
41:13No, I'm sorry.
41:13I'm sorry.
41:14No, I'm not.
41:15Enough, Barkley.
41:15I mean it.
41:16Oh, God help me.
41:16I'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
41:30and protect a path towards long-term peace.
41:34There will be three conditions.
41:38One, 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.
42:18We're an island nation.
42:19Are we permitted passage across the oceans?
42:21No.
42:22The human race evolved to live on land, not 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.
42:52Barkley, 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.
43:02Barkley, there's no prep for this.
43:03We do have responses.
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.
43:23Emma!
43:23Emma!
43:24Emma!
43:24Emma!
43:24Emma!
43:25Emma!
43:25Emma!
43:33We will take questions from the ambassador.
43:37Only.
43:38Whoa.
43:39Voice has changed.
43:40Her intonation is male.
43:42Never mind the voice.
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...
43:58Shut up.
44:02Shut up.
44:04Now.
44:06Shut up.
44:07How is she doing that?
44:19Incredible.
44:19Like I said, people are scared.
44:22They fear what they don't understand.
44:26They don't mean to a thing.
44:31Well done, Buckley.
44:32We'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.
45:01We stand here in your rooms of concrete and steel and dust and light, burning our eyes and our lungs.
45:13And we will endure no more.
45:18So our next meeting will be here.
45:22How 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, west?
45:45What's M?
45:45Barkley, that's Opal.
45:47Water, please clarify the third coordinate.
45:49Your metric unit for length and depth.
45:53You would like us to meet...
45:57underwater?
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.
46:09One of the deepest waterways on the planet.
46:1125,000 feet, five miles down.
46:13Man's submersibles have imploded in less than half that.
46:16Barkley, don't agree to anything.
46:18Will you meet her, Barkley?
46:20At the bottom of the ocean?
46:21Barkley, don't agree to anything.
46:51I'm all right.
46:52There we go.
46:52I'm all right.
