00:00Woken up, we would speak with him.
00:04We're putting an enormous amount of pressure on one man.
00:08Tissue samples.
00:09Know thine enemy.
00:11It'll be the death of the energy industry, of your livelihood.
00:14We'll be sliding into recession.
00:16We cannot hear, or see, or breathe.
00:19So tell me why we should live like this for just one day longer.
00:24Mum!
00:25Oh my God!
00:26The clean of the ocean, the pressure, the pollution, all of it, they're giving it back.
00:30All across Manhattan, the sky is raining plastic.
00:34They're declaring war.
00:35Our next meeting will be here.
00:39Roman's Trench, one of the deepest waterways on the planet.
00:42Will you meet her, Sparkly, at the bottom of the ocean?
00:45Okay.
01:00Will you meet her.
01:15Can we go?
01:19Will you meet her?
01:20Let's go, people.
01:42Welcome to Blackboard.
01:46We don't have much time,
01:47but we've appointed the best naval training personnel
01:50to prep us for the descent.
01:53We'll be doing everything they can to prime us
01:55both physically and mentally.
01:59Monitor our stamina, heart rate, and blood pressure.
02:03And help get us used to the water.
02:09We'll be descending to the rendezvous point in the submersible
02:12to a depth of 8,000 meters, five miles down.
02:17Our journey will take two hours and 17 minutes.
02:21The submersible is currently on a launch vessel
02:23with warship escorts bound for the descent point.
02:32On the dive will be the ambassador,
02:34myself, Captain Mickey for communications,
02:36myself for science and technology,
02:38and our two diplomatic representatives, Mr. Singh.
02:41I'm Ravi.
02:42And Mr. Campbell.
02:45Kate, it's a pleasure.
02:47Have we ever been this state before?
02:50Smaller missions of one or two people.
02:52Nothing of the scale.
02:54And I bet they were trained specialists
02:55with years of experience.
02:57We have days to prepare for this.
02:58Yeah, of course there's a risk.
03:00What we're doing today is unprecedented,
03:02but this is the toughest submersible on the planet.
03:06This is Kate Lethbridge-Stewart's launch vessel.
03:10Captain Gates, how are we doing?
03:11Just finishing final checks.
03:15Go, go, go, go, go!
03:16Go, go, go, go!
03:17Come down, come down, come down!
03:19Get your ball!
03:21Go!
03:22It will not be good!
03:25Pre-launch checks complete.
03:26Submersible ready for deployment.
03:29Things go wrong all the time.
03:31What if it springs a leak?
03:32That kind of pressure will be crushed to death,
03:34pulverized in an instant.
03:36They'll just get your voice down.
03:39If you do this,
03:41you might never come back.
03:42Deep sea pressure compresses air-filled spaces in the body,
03:45leading to lung compression and potential...
03:47Now, once we arrive at the descent point,
03:49Homo Aqua will transfer us to their environment.
03:52Well, what about the descent?
03:54Are they helping us with that?
03:56Of the descent, we're on our own.
03:59We're not alone.
04:01We're never alone.
04:02Sorry?
04:04We're a team.
04:09Okay.
04:09I...
04:10Yeah.
04:32Transferred by helicopters at 0600.
04:35Indemnity forms need signing and legal have noted.
04:37You haven't replied to their e-mails.
04:41You do need to make sure your will is up to date.
05:05So this is it, then?
05:07Do I get a hug before I go?
05:10It might take weeks to clean the roads.
05:14City's been shut down.
05:15You can't go anywhere.
05:17Yeah, well, it's lucky you're back here, then, isn't it?
05:19We're at war.
05:20I know.
05:21I'm going to sort it.
05:22How?
05:25How are you going to sort anything?
05:28Do you know what they're calling you on TikTok?
05:29Oh, I don't really care.
05:30I'm going to be a useless, traitor, bootlicker, bleeding-heart puppet too thick to negotiate.
05:36That's not fair.
05:37It doesn't matter, because either way, we're screwed.
05:39Either they kill us, or we kill ourselves.
05:43I hate the lot of you.
05:44They're worried sick about you.
05:54Yeah, I know.
05:56I'm sorry, but I promise you I'm going to be fine.
05:58No, no, no, no, no, no, no, please, please, please don't.
06:04Got this?
06:05Okay?
06:07I can do this.
06:09I mean, for God's sake, I nursed mum through cancer, didn't I?
06:15Didn't I?
06:17Bloody hell, if I can get through that, oh, I can get through anything, can't I?
06:22I've got to be strong for everyone else, right?
06:26Because everyone's counting on me.
06:28Okay, so, because it's the whole world.
06:39You don't have to be strong for me.
06:45Oh, my, oh, I'm so scared.
06:56I'm so scared.
06:58What?
07:07Okay, now.
07:11What?
07:13Yeah.
07:13Yeah, sorry.

12:58Anyway, we're fine, aren't we?
13:01Gonna get a yes, Ted.
13:05Yes, Ted.
13:09I've got some team bonding work games, if anyone's interested.
13:13No, thank you.
13:15Who'd you end up here anyway?
13:16There was a diplomatic lottery for the last two seats.
13:17And, well... India won. Or lost, depending how you see it.
13:27there was a diplomatic lottery for the last two seats and India won or lost
13:33depending how you see it
13:40there was rumors flying around that the draw was rigged that most people had
13:46their names removed because they didn't want to go hunt I mean one way to look
13:53at it it's weird pioneers those early astronauts now where would we be if they
14:00hadn't taken that one giant link
14:04oh hell is that it is adjusting to the pressure you sure it's okay Ted just
14:10breathe no I'm breathing I'm fine
14:15what do you think we'll get for dinner when we're back on the ship tonight hmm
14:26think they'll spoil us they bloody should no just be canteen sandwiches again tough
14:32being a hero
14:33ha ha ha ha
14:34is this water
14:43this is water there is water in here right here on the ship Ted calm down it's condensation
14:52how the hell do you know because I read page six of the safety briefing
14:56yeah sorry
15:05I guess if there was a bleach this thing would implode before we knew about it
15:14so can everyone just shut up now please
15:19the economy is already tanking if we start closing shipping lanes the effect could be catastrophic
15:40no sorry sir Kate lethbridge stuart okay it is a directive of the united nations the unit have a voice in any emergency discussion
15:49sorry we started a little earlier a lot of people couldn't make it some of the
15:53cabinet are joining remotely with respect it's a phone call I'll catch up please
16:01carry on the United States relies on maritime trade and we will defend
16:07ourselves vigorously against any disruption to our networks the US military is arming itself with sonic weaponry
16:16sound cannons are used for crowd control but we've adapted the technology for underwater use
16:22we've identified key shipping lanes we need to protect English Channel the Panama Canal the Suez
16:28ultra high frequency blasts could disable or confuse homo aqua paving the way for traditional weapons if required
16:37sorry why are we discussing weapons our focus is on diplomacy
16:40and there is an armistice agreement in place now to stop further violence
16:45someone's got to be the first to break it
16:47sir our focus should be on diplomacy that's why six of our diplomats are risking their lives today
16:51they're buying time that's what they're doing it's song and dance smoke and mirrors
16:55the general's right we make decisions here in this room western front the Falklands Iraq
17:03wars are fought and won at this table they think they own the water but while they were splish splashing
17:10around 300 million years ago we crawled out of the water then we conquered it we built a civilization
17:18it depends on our oceans to power our homes feed our crops and keep us alive
17:23keep you in business sorry but I agree with Kate their civilization is so ancient and so powerful
17:29aren't they a gift couldn't they help solve not just the climate crisis but so much more
17:35if we had them on side we're never going to get them on side they want us gone
17:41if they wanted us gone I think that would have already happened
17:44if they were gone we could have access to their technology think of it
17:47treasure from the ocean floor this is a diplomatic crisis not a pirate raid
17:51it's what the west does best colonize and plunder
17:55I'm sorry but I'm 60% water
17:58we all are
18:00don't tell me we don't own the water
18:03if homo aqua want a war between the land and the sea we'll take the sea
18:07so this kind of rhetoric is irresponsible
18:09if you're trying to keep the peace you've already failed
18:12if you're not on side we might have to reconsider our options
18:20diplomatic responsibility can easily be transferred
18:23what to you?
18:24a global emergency committee could guide homo aqua through a peace process that puts mankind first
18:29sorry not you
18:30what is sir keith doing in an emergency meeting?
18:33it is not cabinet or agency and his companies at this very moment are still pumping millions of litres of sewage into our waterways
18:41these processes take time
18:43and don't get me started on general jesolier who leaked confidential information to the press
18:47i think you need to calm down love
18:48this is a national security matter
18:50the fact is we need industry and our allies on side
18:59we can't do this alone
19:18what's going to happen down there?
19:31ravi come on
19:32we've already said we don't know
19:33so what if this is a trick and they want hostages?
19:36we didn't take any hostages why should they?
19:38because that's what happens in war
19:40i promise you we're going to sort this
19:41okay i don't know how we will
19:43but we will
19:44because my kid is not living through a war
19:46i never had kids
19:48if i get out of here
19:50i'm going to call my brother
19:52we haven't spoken for 20 years

20:30and they
20:31they tested it for deep sea pressure
20:33and it
20:34it just turned to soup

21:46a few days ago the situation was dire
21:50we were staring down the barrel of unprecedented financial and energy crises now it's catastrophic
21:56we cannot surrender control of this planet
21:59look what they did to us in 15 minutes if they wanted to they could wipe us out
22:03unit are looking after their own interests
22:05it is our moral duty to stop aqua kind however we can

36:31I don't know why you chose me for any of this.
36:39The tides have drawn us together, the undercurrents pulling us closer.
36:53If you calm your mind, you'll feel their power.
36:59But your thoughts are noisy.
37:10Can you read them?
37:11Human emotions are so loud, we cannot help but listen.
37:20Your heart is racing.
37:29Yeah, I don't want to mess you up.
37:31Billions of people are counting on us.
37:33You have good intentions.
37:45We could make a difference, you and I.
37:47End the conflict between our species, before it's too late.
37:58Yeah.
37:59Yeah.
38:03Berkley.
38:07We thought we lost you.
38:09Are you all right?

38:16Oh, my God.
38:30Oh, my God.
38:39Do not be afraid.
38:45This is how it felt for you, missing us.
38:58Oh, my God.
39:23Welcome to our domain.
39:34They're down there, on their own, with no support.
39:40Do you think one day we won't need to keep us a secret anymore?
39:48I don't know.
