00:00:07Let's go.
00:00:47Captain, Constellation will be waiting for you at the lodge.
00:01:02Let's go.
00:01:49Only those unofficial United Colonies business can access the building.
00:02:10I hope you're not here to report something.
00:02:13The security of the United Colonies is every citizen's responsibility, but we try and do the bulk of the work.
00:02:21Ah, right. You're Sergeant Yumi's recruit. You're taller than I expected.
00:02:31Oh, it wasn't a compliment. Just an observation.
00:02:35In any case, let me fill you in.
00:02:37We have a dead drop that we think has been compromised.
00:02:41So I'd like someone from UC Security to handle the pickup instead.
00:02:45Take the package back to Sergeant Yumi, and he'll check it in as evidence before it gets routed back to
00:02:49Aegis.
00:03:04Take the gnat to the spaceport.
00:03:07There should be a Galbank ATM right next to the station.
00:03:10The package is taped under one of the benches.
00:03:13Grab it and deliver it to Sergeant Yumi, and the job's done.
00:03:24Ha, no.
00:03:26My parents would never have been so presumptuous.
00:03:30Every agent who joins Aegis gets to choose a pseudonym.
00:03:33Pending approval, of course.
00:03:35I chose this for myself when I signed on.
00:03:38I have, of course, since learned that I am not nearly as smart as I thought I was as a
00:03:43younger man.
00:03:44I suppose none of us are.
00:03:55I'm the acting head of Aegis, the intelligence division here in MAST.
00:04:00I oversee all our active projects and agents in the field,
00:04:04and I'm afraid that's about as much detail as I can give you.
00:04:16All you really need to know is that we're here to serve, and we're the good guys.
00:04:21Our main priority is the safety and security of the citizens and assets of the United Colonies,
00:04:27wherever they may be.
00:04:28We keep an eye on, well, everything.
00:04:57Well, you're certainly entitled to that opinion,
00:04:59and there are plenty of others who share it.
00:05:02We'll be looking out for you just the same.
00:05:12We're the intelligence arm of the United Colonies.
00:05:15Think of it this way.
00:05:17UC security responds to threats.
00:05:19It's Aegis' job to anticipate and prevent them.
00:05:25You really should know better than to ask for classified intel.
00:05:29What is this, your first day on the job?
00:05:31Don't worry.
00:05:32I'm just giving you a hard time.
00:05:34I still can't tell you what's in the package, though.
00:05:39Good luck with the mission.
00:05:51The lodge is here in the city.
00:05:54We shouldn't keep Constellation waiting.
00:06:05Good luck with the next day now.
00:06:06Be all right.
00:06:11Ow.
00:06:12Click the ring.
00:06:14Sayos' job.
00:06:15I need to think of mine.
00:06:15I love it.
00:06:18I love it.
00:06:34I don't know.
00:07:01I'm taking a long trip on one of those tried-in cruises, so I'm excited.
00:07:12Kinda in the middle of something here?
00:07:14I don't know.
00:07:46If you think about it, if a new amp helps you get a better job, it basically pays for itself.
00:08:01I've been trying to exercise.
00:08:03Rifle?
00:08:04Already stoned.
00:08:05Hello?
00:08:06Do it?
00:08:07No.
00:08:07I'm sorry.
00:08:08I need to talk to you.
00:08:51I can't do it.
00:10:09As am I.
00:10:11And the best part is, since you're all part-timers, there's no paperwork.
00:10:18Anyway, here's your payment.
00:10:21And if I've any more work for you, I'll let you know.
00:10:39Captain, Constellation will be waiting for you at the lodge.
00:11:09And if I can't wait for you at the lodge, I'll let you know.
00:11:15Your file says you have a military background.
00:11:28Is there a problem?
00:11:43And he's your new captain. My crew can take a look at your ship, and you can stop by the
00:11:48Trade Authority kiosk if you need to offload some cargo.
00:12:15The Trade Authority runs a vending kiosk next to my booth. It's just off to the side, near the ramp.
00:12:21Besides that, Jemison Mercantile is your closest shop if you're looking for a bit of everything. That's further in, past
00:12:27the security checkpoint.
00:12:44Sure, I've had it.
00:13:12See you soon.
00:13:14See you soon.
00:13:29See you soon.
00:13:31See you soon.
00:13:33It's the last shop.
00:13:34Oh my gosh.
00:13:37See you soon.
00:13:50Okay, no problem.
00:14:37I'm sure you can find something.
00:14:38Find something you like?
00:15:01Nothing for us to do.
00:15:03You're in good flying condition.
00:15:27I'm sure you can find something.
00:15:44Hey, no loitering.
00:15:54You'll be scared as you enter the city.
00:15:56Please keep moving.
00:16:02Okay, no bounty.
00:16:04I've heard Neon is a pretty fun place.
00:16:19It's not as bad as everyone says.
00:16:21We should visit sometime.
00:16:24Hello?
00:16:26Hello?
00:16:26I've heard Neon...
00:16:32This is what it is.
00:17:04This is what it is.
00:17:39This is what it is.
00:18:26This is what it is.
00:18:27This is what it is.
00:18:56This is what it is.
00:19:31This is what it is.
00:19:38This is what it is.
00:20:30This is what it is.
00:20:31This is what it is.
00:21:01This is what it is.
00:21:28This is what it is.
00:21:40This is what it is.
00:22:10This is what it is.
00:22:13This is what it is.
00:22:34This is what it is.
00:23:14This is what it is.
00:23:45This is what it is.
00:23:48This is what it is.
00:24:26This is what it is.
00:24:29This is what it is.

00:25:34This is what it is.
00:25:37This is what it is.
00:25:37This is what it is.
00:25:37This is what it is.
00:25:56So are you ready to get to work or was there something else
00:26:11I understand you've been through a lot just let me know when
00:26:58I'm going to get to work or I'm going to get to work
00:27:12Yes? Ready to get out there?
00:27:19We're explorers. Humanity has always hunted for knowledge in the unknown.
00:27:25We just take that a little more seriously than others.
00:27:28We were founded decades ago by a man named Sebastian Banks.
00:27:32He wanted a small group of people from all corners of the settled systems.
00:27:35These artefacts could be everything we've been looking for.
00:27:47I don't know what you've heard, but I can imagine.
00:27:51First of all, I think you can dismiss any stories about us no longer existing.
00:27:56I don't believe in smearing our name everywhere we can.
00:28:00Exploring the...
00:28:01Besides, having a little mystery gives us room to manoeuvre.
00:28:05A fixed reputation could...
00:28:09We're going to be doing some old-fashioned detective work.
00:28:13The artefacts are relatively inert once they're out of bedrock.
00:28:17That means people can pass them around, not even knowing what they are.
00:28:21I've been letting my contacts know to be on the lookout for strange metal objects.
00:28:25Get back a lot of noise, usually.
00:28:27But a tip from the UC vanguard, so...
00:28:40I felt the same way when I started, too.
00:28:43There's an...
00:28:44Electricity in the air when you know you're about to uncover something.
00:28:48But it's not just that.
00:28:50I want to take this opportunity to see how you handle yourself.
00:28:54I'm going to be sticking with you for this.
00:28:57We'll be travelling together until we either find an artefact, or this lead runs dry.
00:29:18We'll need to head to Mast.
00:29:20Check in with the vanguard recruiting office where my contact works.
00:29:23And listen.
00:29:25Whatever you were before, or whatever you do once you're out there, I don't care.
00:29:29So long as you don't bring UC security to our doorstep.
00:29:32Every member of Constellation is their own conscience.
00:29:39Good.
00:29:40Let's take a little stroll through New Atlantis, shall we?
00:29:53I trust you're still satisfied with your choice to join Constellation, Noel?
00:29:58I am at your service, Captain.
00:30:00Captain, now that you are a member of Constellation, I am at your service.
00:30:06No additional protocols necessary.
00:30:08Also, given the likelihood that you will be out in unsettled space,
00:30:13it might be beneficial to go over Exploration Outpost development,
00:30:19in case you ever need to build a base for field research.
00:30:33Captain Jim, I will proceed to my assigned post.
00:30:38Have a great day!
00:32:34If you feel it is necessary.
00:32:46It is impossible to read Barrett.
00:32:50He is neither a book nor a block of code.
00:32:55If you are asking for a summary of my observations on his behavior, I will provide one.
00:33:21No, I was manufactured by a machine.
00:33:26However, Barrett has modified my programming.
00:33:30I warned him that I would require an extra millisecond to process information with his modification.
00:33:37Apparently, my capacity for conversation makes me a more entertaining.
00:33:49My internal clock tells me that it has been years since Barrett and I began traveling together.
00:33:59I have traveled.
00:34:05Barrett has not shared many personal details with me.
00:34:10He finds me, despite repeated attempts on his part.
00:34:16I do not understand the concept of...
00:34:25Based on my understanding of Barrett.
00:34:28I believe he would be flattered by that assessment.
00:34:42I am powered by wheels and cogs.
00:34:45They are responsible for any ticking that emanates from me.
00:34:57Constellation as seen to it that I possess a near-encyclopedic knowledge of human history.
00:35:09I have been programmed to comprehend all modern and ancient human languages.
00:35:16The only exception, my body is crafted from reinforced metal.
00:35:21And therefore...
00:35:31This is a difficult question.
00:35:33I do not experience enjoyment.
00:35:37However, I find that the music of ancient Japan has a pleasantly mathematical sound.
00:35:45The same is true of the works of European composers.
00:35:49From the Baroque period, I have dedicated significant time to processing these compositions.
00:35:59Logically, I believe the correct answer to be the airplane, followed shortly by the computer.
00:36:07Humans could not have become a space-faring species without them.
00:36:12Illogically speaking, I am inclined to believe that books were your greatest invention.
00:36:19I have spent a good deal of time processing works.
00:36:23They make good case studies in how your species could have made a mess of its entry into the stars
00:36:30in different ways than you did in Rhea.
00:36:35I am looking at one.
00:36:37I hope that was a suitable response.
00:36:41Constellation did not equip me with a sense of humor.
00:36:45I have done my best to mimic Barrett's.
00:36:50You are an exceptionally curious human
00:36:57Constellation as seen to it that I possess a near encyclopedic knowledge of human
00:37:06Goodbye for now
00:37:39Goodbye for now
00:38:48We need to talk to John Tuala, en masse.
00:38:53If you have any gear you want me to haul, I'm happy to help.
00:39:17No, it's fine. Go ahead.
00:39:29What are you doing?
00:39:52What are you doing?
00:40:00What are you doing?
00:40:08Exploration is my entire life.
00:40:10I consider it both a career and recreation.
00:40:14That being said, I will make a confession, but you have to promise to keep it between us.
00:40:21Before I graduated from school, I was in a band.
00:40:26And no, I don't mean the school band. I mean a rock band.
00:40:32We called ourselves Ironic Comet.
00:40:37A ridiculous name, I know, but we were just a bunch of teenagers getting together and having fun.
00:40:44And before you ask, no, I wasn't the lead singer. I actually played the drums.
00:40:49The band never really went anywhere, of course, but those were good times, and I remember them fondly.
00:41:02You mean apart from being the chair of Constellation for the past five years?
00:41:07Well, let's see.
00:41:09I pride myself with my aptitude for astrodynamics, calculating optimal trajectories for gravjumping.
00:41:16And as far as planetary exploration, my area of expertise is botany.
00:41:22So, don't worry.
00:41:26I'll be here.
00:41:33Time to go?
00:41:58I need to open it.
00:42:14It starts working, and I have to feel it.
00:42:16Or you may never be in a �w chois.
00:42:17Good day, man.
00:49:00Run into spacers?
00:49:01Scum bags and scavengers.
00:49:04There's something we need to discuss.
00:49:56Oh, I've always liked that statue.
00:49:59It's beautiful, isn't it?
00:50:02I wonder what the artist was trying to represent.
00:50:18I wonder what the artist was trying to represent.
00:50:21I wonder what the artist was trying to represent.
00:50:37Hi, good day, Captain.
00:50:41I will see you at a later time.
00:50:55It's good to be back on board.
00:50:57I wonder what the artist was trying to represent.
00:51:38I don't know.
00:52:09I don't know.
00:52:46I don't know.
00:53:25I don't know.
00:53:37I don't know.

00:55:04I don't know.
00:55:23I don't know.
00:55:56I don't know.
00:56:21I don't know.
00:56:37I don't know.
00:57:02I don't know.
00:57:35I don't know.
00:57:57I don't know.
00:58:18I don't know.
00:58:19I don't know.
00:59:10I don't know.
00:59:24I don't know.
00:59:57I don't know.
01:00:28I don't know.
01:00:44I don't know.
