00:02As such, we can expect to finish our full supply of coal by November next,
00:06unless we begin stepping down the ship's heating plans now.
00:09And that's without any future days making way under steam factored in.
00:13Of salt beef, we've a combined total of 750 pounds.
00:17Salt pork, 210.
00:19Flour, 902.
00:21Cheese, 87.
00:22Dried fruits, 9 pounds.
00:24Only after making the men Lady Jane's Christmas pudding last week.
00:27Yeah, yeah.
00:31Of lemon juice.
00:33Not quite 200 gallons remaining.
00:35Though Dr. McDonald suspects it's lost most of its anti-scurvy properties by now.
00:41As for the tins, we've now inspected everyone and tossed out the Puget.
00:45It's clear now why the Stefan Goldner Tinned Foods Company will see low bidder.
00:50I'd like to run that man through.
00:52What's left, number 1,402 tins preserved meats, 1,163 preserved vegetables,
01:00911 preserved soup, 1,182 potatoes.
01:04And when is the point of no return?
01:08If we reduce to three-quarter rations, we'll reach the end of our provisions midwinter next year.
01:14If we're stuck in again with no game, that with our current roster of 116 men.
01:19Why mention the number of men, Lieutenant?
01:25We've not seen hide nor even a hair, Mr. Teeth and Claws.
01:31I think we can be confident that Mr. Blankey here, along with Mr. Hodgson, killed it or ran it off
01:35for good.
01:36No, the men will notice that large reduction in what they eat.
01:39So begin with four-fifths rations, and we will discuss how to reduce further in a month's time.
01:45And finally, advise Mr. Wall and Mr. Diggle that they should emphasize salt meats in their menus now, not the
01:50tins.
01:52We must, we must start to preserve all things portable now.
02:03And not a word of this yet to anyone who is not around this table, excepting the Captain, of course.
02:08I pray he is with us again soon.
02:11Thank you, gentlemen. That completes our business for today.
02:15Mr. Blankey, a word in private.
02:18The rest of you, you terrorists, can suit up. We won't be long.
02:23Gentlemen.
02:26We always feel worse in the darker months, don't we?
02:31First Sunrise is just a week away now.
02:35Try to encourage the men with that.
02:50Please, sit down.
02:56You make that contraption work like a ballet.
02:59If this is about Captain Crow's, you say, Jopson's a regular mongoose. Keeps us all out most of the day.
03:05No, it's not that.
03:07You said to Francis the night of your attack, what happened to John Ross at Fury Beach could happen to
03:12him too.
03:13I've had a chance to read Ross's memoir, and I found nothing self-critical there.
03:20Do you refute the truth of his account?
03:28Someone's going to have to think of a new kind of memoir, sir, if truth is what you're after.
03:34I'm interested in what actually happened, Mr. Blankey, in your words.
03:41You read the book, so you know we spent three winters on the victory.
03:46Yes.
03:47Nearly the same as we.
03:49Captain would have tried for a fourth if we hadn't run out of food.
03:54We shouldn't have waited to start walking.
03:57By the time we got to it, scurvy was in us.
04:00Captain Ross, he had no sympathy for illness.
04:04What do you mean?
04:07We sledged the boats with us.
04:11You know, carrying half a load of days marched and doubling back for the other half.
04:18I finally begged Ross to drop the boats altogether.
04:22We replied he'd rather leave our sick to die.
04:26This from his position riding atop one of the sledges.
04:30It was 300 miles to Fiori Beach.
04:34We were barely standing.
04:36What little love we had amongst us, the only thing keeping us civil.
04:41We had one day's provisions left.
04:43One.
04:45Were it not for the cachet of stores left there from the wreck of the Fiori,
04:50we'd still be on that beach, bleaching in the wind.
04:55We tried to, uh, row out to the whaling channels, but, uh, the ice kept us back.
05:02This is where you built Somerset House?
05:07Aye.
05:10Somerset House.
05:12Even there, Ross kept rank.
05:15The officers kept their stewards and their wolf blankets, and what salmon we could catch,
05:20and the rest of us just slept in ice ditches and fought over year-old biscuits.
05:25And once it's past all hope, the mind goes...
05:30unnatural, it thought.
05:34What kind of thoughts?
05:37Like splitting open Sir John Ross's head with a Botax.
05:42You said you wanted the truth, sir, in my own words.
05:46Trust you won't court-martial me for them now.
05:50Would you have done it?
05:56Leeds opened up in the August, we got picked up by the Isabella.
05:59We've been taken for dead for two years.
06:05Frankie, most of the men survived.
06:10If that's the point you want me to get to, sir, then yes, we survived.
06:14But if we're gonna walk out of here ourselves and almost three times as far,
06:18you need to understand it wasn't sickness or hunger that most mattered to our chances.
06:24It was what went on up here.
06:28Notions.
06:30A darkness.
06:32With no firm hand to stem it.
06:41I know many were thinking what I was.
06:44Sir John Ross, he never knew how close he came.
06:52This kind of darkness,
06:54do you see it among us here?
06:57I don't need to see it to know it's here.
07:01You've time enough to vent it.
07:04How?
07:05Well, first of all,
07:07if you're gonna keep things from the men,
07:08you better give them something in return.
07:10Now.
07:13Something to keep their minds on.
07:15Other than what lies ahead.
07:17There'll be a tally for it.
07:19Later, when things get hard.
07:22It always is.
07:23I know.
07:28Come on.
07:35Actually.
07:38Come on.
07:40Come on.
07:41Come on.
07:43Come on.
07:44Come on.
07:46Come on.
07:47Come on.
07:48Come on.
07:48Come on.
07:49Come on.
07:49zweet careful things.
07:52Excuse me.
07:54Leave it to you, Zajon.
08:43Why are you doing that?
08:46Dr. MacDonald will be here soon.
08:50Dr. MacDonald won't mind if I have hair astray.
08:54Turmoil on the inside needn't show on the outs, sir.
08:58I forget.
09:00I've gotten turmoil all over you and the bed in the last hour alone.
09:06Just let me lie in it.
09:08It'll teach me.
09:09It is you, sir, who is teaching the rest of us.
09:17Johnson, yours is the only company that I don't completely hate right now.
09:24Now, don't push it.
09:27How do you feel?
09:27Oh, my Christ.
09:31Little more nails.
09:34Sir.
09:36Here.
09:38Mm-hmm.
09:42Only sips, sir.
09:44More.
09:45No.
09:45The doctor is the captain in this matter, sir.
09:50Full stop.
09:55You've done this before.
09:57Who was it?
10:02Every word I say hurts.
10:06Don't get mysterious, Jobson.
10:13It was my mother, sir.
10:16Your mother?
10:17Yeah.
10:19Oh.
10:22She took my brother to a circus in Motherbone.
10:28The crowd was seated up on risers.
10:31You know how they pack them in to sell more seats.
10:34My brother dropped his shoe beneath him.
10:37They were sitting low enough that my mother could reach down and get it.
10:42And that's when the whole contraption collapsed.
10:47Her handle smashed.
10:50She kept it, but it was too maimed to ever use again.
10:55And the only thing that would take away the pain was laudanum.
11:01You were a boy?
11:03No.
11:04No, this was just before we set sail to the Antarctic in 39.
11:09She wanted me to go.
11:11She didn't want me to miss the opportunity.
11:16But she was a different woman by the time we got back.
11:20Pardon me, sir.
11:22No, go on.
11:24No.
11:26My problem was...
11:29It made her happy.
11:35She would stop breathing in the night.
11:38She'd soil herself.
11:41She'd get mesmerized.
11:42To the point where she would forget to feed my brother or herself for days.
11:49But it took away her pain.
11:50And it made her laugh.
11:55I don't like to hear a woman laughing now, sir.
12:02Our neighbour was a nurse mate from the workhouse, and she helped me take her mother off it for three
12:08weeks.
12:10How did she fare?
12:11How did she fare...
12:13When she was through it?
12:18Hello?
12:21She did in the cafe, sir.
12:22You look ready to dance a polonaise.
12:26Thomas.
12:29I've got you, Captain.
12:32You can count on that, sir.
12:34You can count on that, sir.
12:40You can count on that, sir.
13:01I've got her.
13:04I've got you.
13:16What happened?
13:19I've got you, Captain.
13:19Also, I'm sorry...
13:19Let's go.
13:30When I took my foot in, I showed you.
13:30Let's go.
14:20I've seen Irving seems busy since he got back with the purser.
14:27The usual accounting, I'd imagine.
14:30Well, they've done that.
14:32Now they're moving all the canned food to the back of the storeroom.
14:36Why?
14:37I've not heard reason.
14:39I did see an odd list on Lieutenant Hodgson's desk.
14:43An infantry to be filled out.
14:45An infantry of what?
14:47Empty things.
14:48Trunks, crates.
14:49Gather round, everyone.
14:51Men, up.
14:53Lieutenant Leviscont has a message from Captain Fitzjames that's going to put a beam in all your stuff.
14:57That is the cart in the luggage, Billy.
14:59Look at you for what?
15:00All right, lads.
15:01Look at you for what, Cornelius?
15:01We've got a bit of a banjo plan for First Sunrise.
15:05Captain Fitzjames has proposed a carnival.
15:22The worst case of gastritis, surely there never was.
15:53The worst case of gastritis, surely there never was.
15:55Oh, God.
15:56Oh, my God.
16:26Oh, my God.
16:59I always wanted to be a Marine, that one.
17:01Look for his dummy.
17:04He longs for it.
17:07What about you, Mr. Hickey?
17:10Did you always want to be a cooker?
17:12That man owes you one, too, you know.
17:14Hey, Armitage.
17:16Yeah, how's that?
17:18For not pointing him out, being part of grabbing that esky girl.
17:22He'd have been in your rights, too.
17:24I didn't see the point in it.
17:27Even still, after getting flogged,
17:31that sort of thing can change your sense of what the point is.
17:35It did.
17:37I'm grateful, is the point.
17:43Reformed you, did it?
17:44I shouldn't have listened to you.
17:46And I deserved to be flogged.
17:49Yeah, and by ordering it,
17:51Captain, he's given me a chance to clean my record and start anew.
17:56Do you encroach your season like that?
17:58A new Mr. Hartnell?
18:00I do, yeah.
18:04And I intend to use that charter well.
18:09What about you, Mr. Hickey, eh?
18:16Why didn't you turn on the tijin?
18:21Bah.
18:26That's it, lads.
18:34There it is.
18:36We've not heard that sound in far too long.
18:39We're using a lot of supplies, sir.
18:42We can't possibly carry all this come spring.
18:45So it's settled, then.
18:48We're walking.
18:51Francis will decide.
18:54Yes, it does seem inescapable now.
18:57He was right all along.
19:00And we were deaf to him.
19:05Listen, Lieutenant.
19:08You need to give the men a last hurrah before.
19:14Now, before we open their ears.
19:19Have you chosen the disguise?
19:21We gave our trunk to the men.
19:23Most of the officers are making their own.
19:25Don't wait to choose until all the best ideas are snapped up.
19:39I was, uh, looking for Dr. Goodsir.
19:43Mr. Goodsir is, I know not where.
19:46Helping with construction, perhaps, as I thought you would be.
19:50Mr. Collins.
19:52Are you ill?
19:54Been in a bad way, yes.
19:57Are you with fever?
19:58No, it isn't now.
20:04It's my thoughts, sir.
20:06They're, uh, flurried somehow.
20:10Flurried thoughts?
20:11I do not know what that means.
20:26Do you ever feel like your mind is against you?
20:34Look, I sign up for all the extra work I can.
20:37I wholly stone the deck like a ship's boy.
20:39I can't really stand to be alone.
20:42No man is alone on a ship.
20:44I know it.
20:46But I do feel alone.
20:49All the time now.
20:51Every day it's like, uh,
20:55a trap door, sir.
20:58I can feel something's about to open up
21:00and pull me into some hidden space I won't get back from.
21:02What is that, Doctor?
21:04All the men's spirits are low.
21:05It is winter.
21:06We expect that.
21:09I don't believe the others feel as I do, sir.
21:14You do not know how the others feel.
21:22Mr. Collins, does your gut hurt you?
21:26My gut, sir?
21:28Are you dyspeptic?
21:29With blisters, dropsical about the knee,
21:31do you require camphor or adoverse powder?
21:35No, sir.
21:36I am a doctor of medicine.
21:38Mr. Collins, do you understand what that means?
21:46But I think what you need to do is keep busy.
21:50They keep putting your energy to positive use,
21:53which is exactly why Captain Fitzjames has ordered a party made.
21:58It is a prescription I support for all the men.
22:03Look forward to the party.
22:04Mr. Collins, a little fun is what is needed.
22:09Fun?
22:10Yes.
22:12A sense of fun.
22:25And your daughter, sir?
22:28Yes.
22:32Good night, Mr. Collins.
22:34Unless you love birds.
22:36Think of the carnival.
22:39It will sort us all out.
22:42I have no doubt.
23:13I have no doubt.
23:14I have no doubt.
23:15I have no doubt.
23:17I have no doubt.
23:17I have no doubt.
23:17I have no doubt.
23:17I have no doubt.
23:17I have no doubt.
23:18I have no doubt.
23:18I have no doubt.
23:19I have no doubt.
23:20I have no doubt.
23:54Mr. Good, sir, there's trouble in the oil lock you need to see. Immediately.
24:00Move that. Out of the way.
24:22Wait, wait, wait, what?
24:22Come on.
24:45Mr. Horsehead, you were looking for me?
24:49I've gotten used to being on the same ship together. Reminds me of our seasons on the Gannet.
24:53I didn't volunteer to birth here because I'm afraid of the eyes hassling terror, John.
24:57I'd like to hear that. More reasons than one.
25:04But I haven't finished with Voltaire.
25:06Put that aside.
25:08Has something happened?
25:12This is Xenophon.
25:15In Greek, the title is Nabasis, which translates to the March of the Ten Thousand. Do you know the story?
25:22No.
25:23When Cyrus the Younger wanted to seize the throne of Persia from his brother, he hired an army of hoplite
25:28to accompany him.
25:29They won the battle, but during the fighting, Cyrus was killed, which rendered the expedition obsolete.
25:36His army found themselves in hostile country. Most of their officers were dead.
25:42They had to choose.
25:43They could either stay and fight against clearly unwinnable odds, or they could walk out.
25:53They walked for hundreds and hundreds of miles through desert and snow with no food and attacked on their flanks.
26:03But they made it, Henry.
26:08Read it.
26:11Begin to imagine how you'd prepare for such a journey.
26:28Come on.
26:46What do you see?
27:15Oh
27:20Johnson, are you there?
28:09Where's the fire, Mr. Goodson?
28:10We need to talk.
28:12Now, please.
28:20I didn't hear the bell, sir.
28:22Sounds as though there's no one on board.
28:26No one is, sir.
28:28It's Captain Fitzjames Carnival.
28:30We've just a single watch tonight.
28:32Everyone else is attending.
28:33That's tonight?
28:34Yes, sir. All night.
28:36Until the sunrise.
28:39See if you can borrow a shotgun of somebody on watch.
28:43I want to see it.
28:45Well, it's a half mile from the ship, sir.
28:50I'm gonna eat whatever that is on your tray.
28:55Make sure it stays put.
28:57And then you're gonna help me get into my slopes.
29:01Yes, sir.
29:08We've been fishing bits of it out of our food, out of our mouths, this entire journey.
29:14It's a constant ingestion of lead over years.
29:19This could explain David Young's passing, the men on BG.
29:24Why we're seeing so many men come to us with these odd complaints.
29:29This is gonna get worse and worse.
29:31We need to let Command know immediately.
29:35I will think it through and decide on a plan.
29:39What is there to think through?
29:42Your energy is full of panic, Mr. Goodsir.
29:45And that will not help anyone here.
29:47I cannot stand by while I...
29:48It is not yours to decide.
29:52I will do.
29:55You will not.
30:00Worse and worse, Doctor.
30:04Leave it with me.
30:40Welcome home, boys.
30:44Now, let's get our hair good and powder before that damn sun finds us again.
30:48Wait!
30:49Wait, wait!
30:54Wait, wait!
31:08Wait, wait!
31:08I'll help you!
31:09Wait!
31:11Let's go!
31:27Can't they manage all this?
31:42Can't they manage all this?
31:45Can't they manage all this?
32:14What do you mean?
32:22To where?
32:28Francis, you're back with us.

35:40Thomas.
35:42Thomas.
35:43Thomas.
35:57Remove your masks.
35:59Let us look one another in the face as men.
36:06Frozen ships are good shelters.
36:10But they are not our homes.
36:13We've got homes we need to find our way back to.
36:19That is what you men are feeling the call of out here tonight.
36:23Not in daydreams, but in this temple that you've built to honor all that we miss.
36:39Out of nothing and a little time.
36:43With only vision and good work.
36:50Marvel at what you men have made.
36:54All this is more important than you know for what lies ahead.
37:03Let us speak plainly.
37:06In a few hours we welcome the first sunrise of the year.
37:10It will mark the end of the worst of a long and strange winter.
37:24Strange in ways we will find impossible to recount when we are safe and home.
37:32To get there, we can hope for a thaw come summer, but we no longer have the luxury to wait
37:38for one.
37:40So as soon as there are enough hours of light in the day for safe travel, there are no signs
37:46of a breakup.
37:46We will be abandoning both ships and walking out of here, south to the mainland and up Baxfish River, to
37:59the Hudson Bay Company's Fort Resolution.
38:03This will take us all the land across the length of King William Island.
38:09It's not inhabited year round, but we will be crossing it during hunting months and stand a good chance of
38:17running into Nexalic people.
38:24They are a good people who we can greet as friends.
38:31Despite our shortfalls with them, they will help us, I am certain.
38:40It is an 800-mile journey, but by then, Lieutenant Fairholme and the party we sent out last year will
38:50be on their way back from Fort Resolution with help and supplies.
