02:49.
02:50about the party. Who's there? Clyde McLeish, yeah?
02:53Yeah, and Stanley.
02:55Yeah, Willie Buckby, wouldn't he?
02:57See ya.
03:00Sorry, the exit's a bit cross for me.
03:04You've broken so many rules.
03:05I know. And I want to say, um, I am sorry about Christmas.
03:10If you can't drink, don't.
03:13I checked.
03:14Apparently you're on board to replace someone called Roger Trevithick.
03:18He was on a mission in Scotland, so he made his replacement.
03:21Is that what he says?
03:23Yup.
03:41The thing about Roger Trevithick, did that come from HR?
03:43How should I know? General.
03:45Sergeant Shackrey, welcome aboard.
03:48And you are?
03:49Uh, uh, oh, Barclay-Pierre Dupont, sir. I'm Roger Trevithick's replacement.
03:52Oh, the civilian. Read and assess.
03:54No, I just wanted to say about Roger Trevithick. Did that come from HR?
03:57Look, Barclay-Pierre Dupont, does that surname make you French?
04:00Uh, yeah, on my father's side.
04:02Trevian.
04:08Barclay.
04:09Oh.
04:11Ah.
04:12I, uh...
04:13Hairpin it?
04:14Yeah.
04:15Um...
04:16Replanting Roger Trevithick?
04:17Oh, my god, yeah.
04:18Okay. We arrive on Cabrera at 0900 local time.
04:21From there we get taken to the island of Dragonera.
04:23Dragonera. The village is called Kala Escondida, designated prime location.
04:28There's a lot to take in, so I suggest you make a start.
04:49Wow.
04:53It's amazing, isn't it? Mind blown.
05:15The thing about Roger Trevidic.
05:16I replaced him only one time, back in 2020. His wife was having a baby, it was premature and he had to rush off, and I just happened to be there, so all I had to do was answer his phone, which didn't even ring, and so that was that.
05:30But then I went on file as Roger Trevidic's replacement.
05:34How was the baby?
05:35Yeah, the baby was fine, but the thing is, I just got stuck on the list in HR. Roger Trevidic's replacement. I get, like, memos. I mean, there's one time I even got tickets to Japan, and I'd email him, I'd say, look, look, I'm not Roger Trevidic's replacement.
05:49So?
05:50So I'm not Roger Trevidic's replacement.
05:53Oh, great, Tim.
05:56Tim.
05:57You're Tim.
05:58Don't talk to me.
05:59And I didn't show you anything.
06:00Yeah, but what do I do? I work in transport. I just booked the taxis.
06:04Oh, troops.
06:32As of now, the Mediterranean is hostile territory.
06:36What are we doing?
06:41Come on, you guys.
06:44Village evacuated.
06:45Order established at 10 kilometers, sir.
06:47This entire coastline belongs to us.
07:02They hung out far away from the village like they were scared of, even in death.
07:18Decontamination in progress.
07:35Decontamination in progress.
07:39Decontamination in progress.
07:41Decontamination in progress.
07:43Colonel.
07:49General.
07:51Quite a sight, isn't it?
07:54Caught five kilometers off the coast.
07:57They shot it dead, but then thought they could make money out of it.
08:00Hold it up.
08:02The monster from the deep.
08:07We saw it online.
08:08Declared it a hoax.
08:10Flew in from Madrid, sealed the place off.
08:11But it's quite a find.
08:14It's the first time we've seen one exactly like this.
08:18Mythology and superstition, we call them sea devils.
08:21But we're better than that now.
08:25Let's say, uh, Homo aqua.
08:29We think their species branched off from tenospondyls.
08:32Which means the correct name is Homo spondyl erectus.
08:35I say Homo aqua, because that's what it looks like.
08:39Do we have a sex?
08:40It's difficult to say.
08:42The genitalia suggests reptilian cloaca, which is found on both male and female.
08:47What about the neck?
08:48Was there a pearl?
08:49Plain and simple.
08:53Nothing artificial.
08:56Calcium carbonate.
08:5860% tarragonite.
08:5940% calcite.
09:00Then I suggest we return it to its rightful place.
09:04Every time you find a creature like this, we find the pearl.
09:11It might be simple decoration.
09:13Mankind has worn pearls ever since God knows when.
09:16But every pearl gets analyzed.
09:18And we found nothing.
09:18No technology, no inscription, but still, it doesn't signify a caste or a belief or identity.
09:27The pearl is always located at the base of the throat actually embedded in the skin.
09:33We think it's placed there at birth.
09:38It goes back at least 2,000 years, sir, the use of pearls as jewelry.
09:44It's said Cleopatra removed her pearl earring, dissolved it in vinegar, and drank it in front of Mark Antony.
09:51Could be useful to file that.
09:53Ready for the deep scan?
09:55Yes, sir.
09:57Yes, sir.
09:57Corporal Morgan, you can join the team here and liaise with Sergeant Brock.
10:01Thank you, Miss Solo.
10:02I think your team can stand out.
10:03Renault.
10:03Pack it up.
10:04Yes, sergeant.
10:04Yes, sergeant.
10:05Pass me down.
10:07Bring in the case of death.
10:08Excuse me.
10:09Can you hammer that?
10:24Charge him up.
10:51Copy, sir.
10:52You're welcome.
10:54Cheers.
10:54I just wonder what they're doing here.
11:05I mean, it's a pond, the Mediterranean.
11:07It's got no depth.
11:08January 2020, there was an avalanche underwater, lasting two days off the west coast of Africa, spreading over 1,200 kilometers.
11:17Massive event.
11:19All hidden under the sea.
11:20You think it was them?
11:22It's severed communications cables.
11:23Which I think is significant.
11:25They're waking up.
11:29Now the world is two-thirds water.
11:32It's us against them.
11:33Well, I think they heard that.
11:47Well, I think they heard that.
11:52What was that, sir?
11:53A translation pulse.
11:56We said hello.
11:57Well, can we use our phones?
12:27No.
12:50No, no, no, it's a true story. That's why people die.
12:53A most common domestic accident, they fall downstairs, break their necks.
12:56So what are you supposed to do?
12:57Well, you go like this. As you fall, you starfish, yeah, it jams you into the stairwell, you stop falling.
13:02But who is going to remember that? You're falling. You don't think...
13:06What do I do? What kind of fish?
13:08That's the point. No one remembers. So you die!
13:23Anyway, right, do you take sugar?
13:25No, thanks.
13:28Whoa!
13:29What the...
13:30What?
13:31What's all this?
13:32What's wrong? Muddy boots?
13:33Something's leaking bloody out.
13:34Careful! Is it chemicals?
13:36Whoa!
13:40What is it?
13:41I don't know.
13:44Wait. Wait.
13:46I don't know.
13:52Hold on to me. Hold on to me.
13:53Hold on to me.
13:55I can't!
13:56Yes!
13:57I can't!
13:58Hold on to me.
13:59Hold on to me.
14:00Jesus!
14:01We need help!
14:02We need help!
14:03We need help!
14:04We need help!
14:06We need help!
14:07What?
14:08Oh!
14:10Ah!
14:11What?
14:12Oh!
14:13Yeah!
14:14Please!
14:15Oh!
14:18Oh!
14:19Oh!
14:21Oh!
14:22What's happened?
14:42We have to decontaminate, sir.
14:43But tell me what's happened.
14:44I'm sorry, sir, you'll be able to see once you...
14:46Captain, tell me what's happened!
14:48They've gone, sir.
14:49What do you mean?
14:51Everything's gone.
14:52What do you mean?
14:54What do you mean?
14:55What do you mean?
15:02Who was on duty?
15:04Corporal Morgan and Private Abdullah.
15:05Then where are they?
15:06Then where's that thing?
15:09They were just seconds away.
15:10They can't have got far.
15:11Hold on.
15:23Keep the area clear.
15:24But they've stripped the place spare.
15:26Where did everything go?
15:27Who was on duty?
15:28Corporal Morgan, Private Abdullah, please report your location.
15:32We can search the village, sir.
15:35Corporal Morgan, Private Abdullah, please report.
15:39Corporal Morgan, Private Abdullah, please report your location.
16:07Corporal Morgan, Private Abdullah.
16:12Corporal Morgan, Private Abdullah.
16:14Corporal Morgan, Private Abdullah.
16:16What's that?
16:20Huh?
16:20What's that?
16:33Huh?
16:35What is that?
16:50It was 28.
16:58I wanted to say sorry, you had to see that.
17:01You got the wrong one.
17:02That was your first death, I'm sorry.
17:05No, I'm here by mistake, okay?
17:08I haven't got clearance, I'm grade 10, I work in transport, I'm a clerk, you were meant to have Roger Trebivik, right?
17:16I've just ended up here by mistake, I shouldn't be here.
17:19Are you saying you're here by accident?
17:25Yes, sir.
17:28And that, I suspect, is how history has made.
17:33One great big chain of mistakes.
17:37But still, the unit protocol states, at times of historical or cultural or political impact,
17:43a member of the civilian staff must stand alongside the military as witness.
17:47And they could not be more civilian than you.
17:53Too late to turn back now, Barclay.
17:57Welcome aboard.
18:04Typical military intelligence.
18:05I got a first-class degree and did intensive training at St. Andrews for three years to get here.
18:10You blundered in by mistake.
18:15Yeah.
18:18I'm the one who orders the cars and finds cheaper lorries.
18:22But I met the doctor once.
18:26No way.
18:27Last year in the tower he said hello and then he, and off he went.
18:34What was he like?
18:39Just like, he's vivid.
18:42You know?
18:46It's just this tiny little moment, but...
18:49I think about it every second of every day.
19:00That creature, what was it?
19:04The Unified Intelligence Task Force was created to deal with alien life forms,
19:10but this species is an alien.
19:14They're from Earth.
19:15They were here before us.
19:18But...
19:19What did they die out?
19:21What?
19:22They hibernated.
19:24Underground.
19:25And this was when the Earth was...
19:27young, because the planet reformed around them and sealed them in.
19:30Sometimes proof is found, and we hide it.
19:35What for?
19:37Think about it.
19:38They were here first, millions of years ago,
19:43so the planet belongs to them.
19:46Technically, we inherited their world.
19:48But, if they're not dead...
19:51What if they want it back?
19:57What's exciting?
19:59We're at night.
19:59We have a life force.
20:02Let's go.
20:08Let's go.
20:15Play, play, play.
20:28What's that?
20:29What's that?
20:29What's that for?
20:30You're the civilian witness.
20:30You record everything.
20:31That could be your testimony if we get killed.
20:32If we get, if we get what?
20:33At my command, arms down.
21:01How are we on translation?
21:05Aligned and running.
21:06Three, two, one.
21:08Ready to calibrate, sir.
21:10As soon as it talks, we can capture the sound.
21:13Running translation, sir.
21:30We are calibrated, sir.
21:40Ready to go.
21:43My name is General Austin Pierce.
21:55I represent the Unified Military Task Force of the Combined Nations of the Dry Lands of Earth.
22:01And I welcome you into Diplomatic Concord.
22:09Concord is a big concept. Sorry, can we think of another word, please?
22:12Meeting.
22:14I welcome you into this diplomatic meeting.
22:28You killed us.
22:29You killed us.
22:30Oh, God.
22:31Oh, no.
22:32You then took two lives.
22:36And now, I suggest we start.
22:50Agreed.
22:52I hope we can meet in peace.
22:59Agreed.
23:00And learn from each other.
23:03Agreed.
23:05And work to forge a friendship between the land and the sea.
23:14Is that agreed?
23:15Agreed.
23:16Agreed.
23:17Agreed.
23:18But...
23:19We do not... agree.
23:27We do not agree with...
23:37I do not agree with...
23:44We would talk to all your animals.
23:47Humans.
23:48We would talk to all humanity.
23:53No, sorry, sir. It's not wood in the conditional tense, sir.
23:58It's we all talk. All. All of us.
24:03Oh, my God.
24:08It means all of them.
24:16Repeat the declaration of peace.
24:18Yeah, I know.
24:23I say again.
24:27We come in peace.
24:33We all talk is a layered statement. There's another concept embedded. Could you say it again, please?
24:44Don't refer to them as male.
24:46I ask you to repeat your previous statement.
24:51For translation.
24:52We all talk is a layered statement. There's another concept embedded. Could you say it again, please?
24:55Don't refer to them as male.
24:56Could you say it again, please?
24:57Don't refer to them as male.
24:59I ask you to repeat your previous statement. For translation.
25:10We are talking to the whole world.
25:13We are talking to the whole world. Right now. Present tense.
25:18What do they mean? In what way?
25:21It's happening all over the world.
25:43We are talking to the whole world.
25:48We are talking to the whole world.
25:53We are talking to the whole world.
25:57All over the world, humanity reacts to the simple fact
26:14that the species that came before us has woken up.
26:17The sea of the United States is the territory of the U.S.
26:28The sea of the U.S. will be the court of fighting.
26:33The sea of the U.S. will be the fact that the U.S. is the one who is a war.
26:39The sea of the U.S. is the one who is in the favor of the U.S.
26:46And the president has called for a new age of cooperation.
26:57It's being called H2O diplomacy.
27:16The first official meeting with Homo Aqua will begin here,
27:45on the banks of the Thames, inside Imperial House, behind you.
27:50That's the construction that's being called the Waterway.
27:53It's a specific demand from Homo Aqua as a junction between the water and the land.
27:58Some say it's a symbol of peace.
28:00Okay, so I can't do the 17th or the 24th, and I don't know yet about 31sts.
28:05Bloody hell, you can't do that.
28:07That job of yours is useless.
28:09Kirby?
28:09Ah?
28:10Your dad said he can't come and get you for the next three weekends because he's not bothered.
28:13Is that a problem, Kirby?
28:15No.
28:16What about me? I've got plans.
28:18Yeah, so anyway, I have just put 3,000 quid in your account. Hope that's okay.
28:22What do you mean?
28:23Like I said.
28:23You did not. Where's that from?
28:26Well, I got promoted, thank you, but apparently my job's useless.
28:28Well, if I'm getting 3,000 pounds, how much did you get?
28:31Oh, that's nice.
28:32Well, you can get some extra cooks in now. We're out with the business.
28:35The funny thing is, with these sea devils, it's got Kirby watching proper TV again like the old days.
28:40Well, you can't say sea devils. They're called homospondiles.
28:43All right, don't laugh. Don't laugh, because homo doesn't mean gay.
28:48It does if you're my age.
28:49So, homo aqua's gay water?
28:51That's them. The gay waters.
28:53That's what you've been drinking, Kirby. Too much gay water.
28:55Shut up. Shut up.
28:58So, what's this promotion, then? What are you doing?
29:01Oh, it's just, you know, just more admin.
29:04General Austin Pearson, grid B2, seat 1. Morning, everyone.
29:29A very good morning to you, General Pierce, and to everyone, on the record and for history.
29:36My name is Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, Commander-in-Chief of the Unified Intelligence Task Force.
29:40UNIT has been chosen to lead these talks because we stand above and outside all countries, borders, governments, and oceans of the world.
29:48We represent humanity. But today, we represent all life on Earth.
29:54And I hope this will be the start of a great endeavor to find peace between all of our kindred species.
30:00To begin the formal proceedings, confirm Downing Street online.
30:04Good morning, Prime Minister.
30:06Good morning, Kate. Extraordinary days.
30:09We've spent a long time working hard to get the people's vote.
30:12Now we've got new people.
30:13White House online.
30:15Confirmed.
30:17All of the people, Beijing.
30:18Confirmed.
30:19National Congress of Brazil.
30:21Confirmed.
30:21We have all 195 nations, ma'am.
30:23And do we have the ambassador?
30:26Approaching now.
30:28Apparently, he had the lobster thermidor last night against our advice.
30:32Let's hope that's not a major crime down below.
30:34Thank you, Mrs. Bingham. Let's concentrate. Eyes on the task.
30:37Pardon me, ma'am.
30:38Ah, General.
30:39Good to see you, sir.
30:42Very special day.
30:43Absolutely.
30:45Mr. St. Louis, how's the waterway? Are we ready to go?
30:48Stress is holding.
30:50Seals checked and secure.
30:52A-16 has been fixed.
30:54You know, the only way to see if this works is to do it.
30:57You've got quite a crowd.
30:59All under control.
31:00Ma'am, we have a press drill.
31:02Ready for that. Take them out.
31:08What was that?
31:10How gross are you doing?
31:11Did they see us?
31:12It won't read glass.
31:13Don't you read anything?
31:14I finally don't know where I am.
31:15They'd flip.
31:16Thanks to you, I'm not even allowed in this room.
31:19Very well done.
31:23That's Roger Trevillick.
31:26Repair tank activation.
31:28Positions and good luck to us all.
31:30To confirm, the perimeter is now secure, ma'am.
31:32All stations at gold standard.
31:33Thank you, if you could not interrupt.
31:36We have all comms focused and recording backups online.
31:40Good, good.
31:41Mrs. Bingham, let's begin.
31:42Initiate tank activation.
31:44And flood the tank.
31:47Open seals one, two, three.
31:51Open seals four, five.
32:02Take it up to 100 psi.
32:04Open seals six, seven, eight.
32:11We have to compromise.
32:13We have to compromise.
32:13We have to compromise.
32:14Section 45 compromise.
32:16District compromise.
32:16Emergency team.
32:18Open five, people fly.
32:39Volume stable, water filtered, and purity at 98%.
32:42940,000 liters.
32:44Well done, Mrs. Bingham.
32:46Thank you, ma'am.
32:47Now, are we ready?
32:49Let's welcome our guests.
32:51Open water lock one.
33:00Looks like we have six life forms.
33:04And a seventh.
33:05Four homospondyl erectus.
33:07A.K.A. a homo aqua.
33:08Two of an unknown life form.
33:10One of a second unknown.
33:13Three different life forms in total.
33:14General appears to all troops.
33:18Red status.
33:19Confirmed.
33:21Red status.
33:26And here they come.
33:27Two unknown life forms entering.
33:29Two unknown life forms entering.
33:51Two unknown life forms entering.
34:12It's just...
34:15What do we say?
34:19What do we say?
34:20I'd call them Pisces Morpha Grandis.
34:22Welcome to Pisces Morpha Grandis.
34:25Does that mean big fish?
34:27Yup.
34:27Marcus, thank you.
34:37That's the signal for the airlock.
34:40Third life form approaching.
34:44Ma'am, we don't know what that third life form is.
34:47Then the first gambit is to trust them, Colonel.
34:49Open the doors.
34:51Activating airlock pumps.
34:59Airlock at full capacity.
35:06Decontamination in progress.
35:17Activating airlock.
35:19It's a crew.
35:20Let's go.
35:21And gasp.
35:24Don't go.
35:26What do we say?
35:26I don't think I have one.
35:29And that's a crew.
35:29I don't think I could have a truck.
35:30I don't think I have one.
35:31It's a crew or whatever.
35:33And that's a crew.
35:33And then the airlock also just looks underneath.
35:35And I can see what happens now.
35:37Then the airlock runs into the airlock.
35:39And then the airlock goes.
35:41You can see it all.
35:42And then the airlock goes.
35:43Now the airlock goes.
35:44I'd say homomorphosapiens, or to simplify, homo amphibian.
36:01Amazing.
36:04They killed two of us, remember?
36:07We killed them.
36:09That's what this is for, to bring peace.
36:12Ready with translations?
36:14I'm running.
36:15Ready to go.
36:17Sir Jonathan, good luck.
36:26I bid you welcome, on behalf of the human race.
36:34I stand here as...
36:36We do not need translation.
36:38Did we learn their language?
36:40No, we did not.
36:41Save the comments.
36:44Well, your English is excellent.
36:46Me is voile, we see vashie as a kid.
36:50That's Russian.
36:52Nadeus, nase se obchis far mogud integriamasa.
36:57I'll play it, old man.
36:58I bring you greetings from the United Nations of this world, that we call Earth.
37:03It's a symbolic title of Indo-European origin, that bears no disrespect to the oceans, seas, lakes, rivers, and waterways around us.
37:12And I bring you a gift, rhododendron, the dwarf snow rhododendron, a flower that grows at the highest point on planet Earth, on the slopes of Mount Everest, four miles above sea level, perhaps never seen by your kind.
37:31Now, it carries a scent, or a flavor, an essence, that you will have never known before.
37:39Would you, um...
37:40This is given with respect, and the hope of peace between our species.
37:55We have a gift for you.
38:02My children.
38:13My children should have been born at the turn of the third cold current.
38:18But they choked on your oil, and poison, and excrement.
38:26Skip to 16.
38:27Sir Jonathan, go to 16, paragraph 10.
38:32I must state with vigor that we recognize the problem, that our solutions are remarkable.
38:39We do not know you.
38:41Well, I...
38:41I am Ambassador Sir Jonathan Hines.
38:45You are not known to us.
38:48We would speak...
38:51We would speak...
38:51With him.
38:58Me?
39:00Who the hell is he?
39:02Well, he's...
39:02Nothing.
39:03He's no one.
39:05He's part of the team.
39:06He's the witness.
39:07He's the mistake.
39:08He was there by mistake.
39:09Give me intel on him.
39:10Now!
39:11Yes, ma'am.
39:12No.
39:13Sorry.
39:14No, no.
39:15You got the wrong man.
39:17You showed respect.
39:28Uh...
39:28No, that's just...
39:31That's just a thing.
39:32It's...
39:32You respected...
39:33Our fallen kin.
39:35When no others did.
39:37What are they, Christians now?
39:38Someone tell me what's going on.
39:40I'm not even religious.
39:42I don't know what to do.
39:43But we saw your kindness.
39:44And we see you.
39:51Will you stand as ambassador?
39:54And talk on behalf of the entire human race?
40:02Okay.
40:02Hey.
40:02Okay.
40:04No, no, no.
40:14No.
40:15No.
40:15No.
40:15No.
40:16No.
40:17No.
40:17No.
