00:13I suggest that this meeting is adjourned, while we regroup.
00:24His name is Barclay P.L. DuPont. He's a grade 10, works in logistics.
00:27Family. Ex-wife and teenage child.
00:30Bring them in, put them in an interview room.
00:31I want his file on my screen by the time I get downstairs.
00:36Kate Lethbridge-Stewart.
00:38Yeah, I know I book your taxis.
00:40Sit down.
00:43We weren't expecting this, obviously.
00:47Me either.
00:48So help me understand, out of nearly 8 billion humans on this planet,
00:52why do Homo Aqua want you as ambassador?
00:55I don't know.
00:55What communications have you had with Homo Aqua prior to today?
00:58None.
00:59Never.
01:01I mean, I had a goldfish once, is that relevant?
01:04This isn't a joke, Mr. DuPont.
01:05I'm not joking.
01:07He was called Simon.
01:09Right now, a team of experts are trawling through every detail of your private life.
01:13Every text message, every email, every photo, everyone you've ever met.
01:18Back to Pierre DuPont, born 15, 11, 82.
01:21Get me his immediate family.
01:22Yes, ma'am.
01:24Parents deceased.
01:25Married Barbara Numai, June 2003.
01:27Divorced November 2022.
01:29Split was amicable.
01:31Whatever he's done, we're not part of it.
01:33We're not even together.
01:34Sit down.
01:35Sit down.
01:37Teenage child, Kirby, 16, lives with the mother studying A-levels.
01:41Seize all devices and bring them in professionally, right now.
01:43My family have got nothing to do with this.
01:46They don't even know I'm here.
01:47I never asked for this to happen.
01:49Okay?
01:50But I do want to help.
01:52And the thing is...
01:55You need me.
01:57Am I right?
02:00Well...
02:01Am I right?
02:04The first day of H2O diplomacy has concluded with an abrupt change of ambassador.
02:11Sir Jonathan Hines has made no comment over his dismissal.
02:14And the identity of the new ambassador has been suppressed.
02:18This man is the most important person on the planet.
02:21Don't we have a right to know who he is?
02:23We cannot allow a foreign species to dictate our diplomacy process.
02:27This.
02:28Is.
02:29Dangerous.
02:33Prime Minister.
02:34The H2O committee will not allow a random civilian to represent them.
02:37Okay, you ought to go back in our room and tell him.
02:40We choose our ambassador and the committee's decision is final.
02:43I did it myself, but...
02:45Doesn't look good, does it?
02:46If I'm the one in there when war breaks out.
02:47Not when you can blame you, Ned.
02:49Sorry.
02:51That's not what I meant.
02:53But...
02:53Maybe it's better woman to woman.
02:56If that's what she is.
02:57Is that what she is?
02:58No...
03:00Please, Kate.
03:01We're relying on you.
03:06Thank you for this unscheduled consultation.
03:10I am Kate Lethbridge-Stewart, Commander-in-Chief of the Unified Intelligence Task Force and representative of the H2O committee.
03:18The committee has requested urgent action regarding the role of human ambassador.
03:24Rather than appoint this civilian, they request that you trust in our original candidate.
03:30You talk of trust.
03:33While meeting in secret.
03:35In the dark.
03:38We would hear from the ambassador.
03:41Mr. DuPont is unprepared.
03:43Hello.
03:43We would hear from the ambassador.
03:48We would hear from the ambassador.
04:15Do you have a name?
04:17Is that a thing?
04:18Because...
04:19I'm Barclay.
04:21It's Scottish.
04:22Well, my...
04:22My grammar's...
04:23My grammar's...
04:25Scottish.
04:26My title will not translate.
04:30But you...
04:31May call me Salt.
04:33Salt?
04:37I...
04:40Listen.
04:41I'm just a regular guy.
04:43I work in an office.
04:44I don't know about the diplomacy of politics.
04:46I don't even know about Beeson Sue.
04:47He chose you for your humanity and compassion.
04:51Not your expertise.
04:53Your leaders would replace you.
04:55But what do you want?
04:57I'm...
04:57I'm fine with whatever they decide.
05:00No.
05:01What do you really think?
05:07I think...
05:10This process is about everybody, right?
05:13The whole world.
05:15It's not just prime ministers and presidents.
05:16It's real people like me.
05:18Who worry about their bills.
05:20And their kids.
05:21I mean, I'm a nobody.
05:23I get it.
05:23But I think...
05:25At least time people like me had more of a voice.
05:29We hear you.
05:32Ambassador.
05:35It is decided.
05:36Your request has been heard.
05:39And denied.
05:41Barclay will be present at dawn tomorrow.
05:44Or negotiations will end.
05:49What?
05:50Where are you taking me?
05:52Huh?
05:54What about my family?
05:55Please?
05:56I don't want to be shocked.
05:58No, no, no, no, no, no.
06:03Are you gonna kill me?
06:06I forgot my gun.
06:08Really?
06:09No.
06:12Look, look, look, look.
06:13I'm not a spy.
06:14Or a collaborator.
06:15And I wasn't disrespecting anyone if that's how it sounded.
06:17Alright?
06:18My mouth, it just goes an autopilot.
06:20I mean, the same thing happened when I proposed to my ex.
06:22It took me about 20 minutes to get to the ring.
06:23You know, Barclay.
06:25I need someone I can work with.
06:27Well, yeah.
06:30Of course you do, yeah.
06:31And I think I can work with you.
06:37Well, hang on.
06:40I mean, like five minutes ago you were trying to get rid of me.
06:43I have to tread carefully.
06:45All unit wants is a peaceful settlement.
06:47But there are levels and levels of politics at play here.
06:50International rivalries that go way back.
06:53The truth is I've spent my whole life fighting for this planet.
06:58Now, with your help,
07:00I get to build a better world.
07:02For everyone.
07:03I don't wanna let you down.
07:05I mean, I keep thinking about the time I mixed up the taxis
07:07and you ended up in...
07:08Sklaut, I remember.
07:10But Homo Aqua chose you for a reason.
07:13And I'm prepared to give you a chance.
07:16Okay.
07:20So what happens now?
07:22Now...
07:24Your life changes.
07:32The passengers' transport are now arriving at Diplomatic Hotel.
07:35Near the corridors.
07:36The comprehensë³µ.
07:41Yea.
07:49Even though.
07:50Security protocol...
07:51All delegates and Diplomatic staff will be relocated for their own safety.
07:53Alright, but for how long?
07:54And what about my family?
07:56Can I call them?
07:56Barkley!
07:57Dad.
07:59What the hell's going on?
08:00I know, I know, I know.
08:01Barkley will be present at dawn tomorrow.
08:04All negotiations will end.
08:07We hear you. That's what she said to him, we.
08:10And if that's true, how is she communicating with her people?
08:12Maybe she's wearing an implant.
08:13Well, they could have shared consciousness.
08:15Or some kind of mycorrhizal network.
08:16Maybe they've mastered sound in a way we don't understand,
08:19using frequencies we can't even hear.
08:21Like Mariah Carey.
08:22I noticed something earlier when Sir Jonathan presented the flower.
08:26Everyone focused on her, but look.
08:32The exact moment she inhales, they all do.
08:37Even the ones in the water.
08:40She's softening her language.
08:41She used sarcasm.
08:43Like she's learning, adapting.
08:46They want an everyman as ambassador.
08:47But is that what she is? Because she's extraordinary.
08:50Those remains are en route to the lab.
08:53And the H2O committee are kicking off.
08:55They want to see you.
08:57So we're just accepting her choice of ambassador.
08:59What if it's not up to her?
09:01Their race has survived under the sea for millennia,
09:04with centuries of social, evolutionary and technological advantage.
09:07She's running this show.
09:09Whether we like it or not.
09:18Evening.
09:20Didn't think you were in tonight.
09:21I volunteered.
09:23Didn't want to miss this.
09:24Let's prep one for imaging.
09:26Careful.
09:36We'll take tissue samples.
09:39Prep some slides.
09:47You work in admin.
09:49You're not ambassador.
09:51You couldn't even finish your wedding speech.
09:53Only because your dad spilled wine all over it.
09:55On purpose.
09:56So you're literally the person they're talking about on TV.
09:58Like all the time.
09:59Yeah, but you can't say a word not to anyone.
10:01Who are we going to tell?
10:02We're prisoners.
10:03But dad is famous.
10:04Okay, just look at the bright side.
10:05Look at the view.
10:06It's nice.
10:07And this room is amazing, isn't it?
10:08It's huge.
10:09Am I the only person living in the real world right now?
10:11What about work?
10:12And school?
10:14Kirby's got that coach trip on Thursday.
10:16A coach trip?
10:17Yeah.
10:17Oh, I'm glad you've got your priorities in order.
10:19Never mind the massive international crises.
10:21No, I'm not sure the minibar's included.
10:23Sue me.
10:24So, if you're an ambassador,
10:26does that mean you get to make, like, actual decisions?
10:29No, God, no.
10:30They've got, like, this whole committee who writes everything that's a policy.
10:33I just have to read it out.
10:34But then, like, why are you?
10:35I don't know.
10:37She just chose me.
10:38What's she like?
10:40Well...
10:41I mean, she's kind of like us.
10:43But she's...
10:44I don't know.
10:47She's beautiful.
10:48Beautiful?
10:49Yeah.
10:49She's a fish.
10:50She's not a fish.
10:51She's not a fish and she's not a person.
10:54She's something else.
10:55Anyway, I'm not even supposed to be talking about this.
10:57Convenient.
10:57Barbara, do you really think I asked for this?
11:00I have no idea.
11:01Because it turns out my ex-husband,
11:03who can't even assemble flat pack furniture,
11:06is a secret agent who lied about his job
11:08and is now saving the world.
11:09So, excuse me if I have questions.
11:11I'm making the most of this massive bath.
11:13Oh.
11:34We're putting an enormous amount of pressure on one man.
11:39I hope he's up to it.
11:44My father taught me to rely on instinct over intel.
11:49Trust my gut.
11:52He'd say,
11:53He sounds very wise, your dad.
12:00He is.
12:02You should meet him.
12:07What does your instinct say?
12:10I've seen ordinary people achieve extraordinary things.
12:14But they're usually traveling with the doctor.
12:19And Barclay has you.
12:21By his side.
12:27The oceans cover 71% of this planet's surface.
12:33The human race is quite literally surrounded.
12:36And if it comes to war,
12:39I wonder if we even stand a chance.
12:43Let me take your mind off it.
12:54Are those tissue samples ready?
12:56Yep.
12:57Two seconds.
13:28Two seconds.
13:29You're late.
13:35Your citizenship is approved.
13:37Welcome to Britain.
13:42What about my mother?
13:44Hey!
13:45What about my mother?
13:55Thanks, Maria.
13:57Hello, darling.
13:57Can't stop.
13:58The gallery opens Friday and Sue's got Covid.
14:00It's been chaos.
14:01Filming later, yeah?
14:02Yep.
14:02Oh, your guests.
14:03They're waiting in the dining room.
14:06General, sorry to keep you.
14:08Hey, take your time.
14:10Look at this spread.
14:11Homo aqua tissue samples.
14:13Know thine enemy.
14:15Oh, I haven't eaten all day.
14:18We know what they're gonna ask for, right?
14:20What do we do?
14:21Don't worry.
14:22Leave the fish to us.
14:24It'll be the death of the energy industry.
14:25Of your livelihood.
14:27We've run simulations.
14:28Look at the impact of wars and the pandemic on Western economies
14:31and multiply that by a hundred.
14:34We'll be sliding into recession.
14:36Public are already panicked.
14:37Yes.
14:37My mother was in the bank today and take her account.
14:40Yeah?
14:41Which one?
14:43The President's sole focus is to protect the stability of the US economy.
14:47And mine is to protect my companies.
14:51That's what we hoped you'd say.
14:52But with the unit running the diplomacy, there's constant opposition.
14:56Kate, Lethbridge Stewart has influence.
14:59With the H2O committee.
15:01And with your Prime Minister.
15:03Not to worry.
15:05Harry's attentions are divided at the moment, and he always listens to his biggest donor.
15:10I'm good.
15:11We'll need you on side.
15:13We'll be brief.
15:14Oh, you had me at recession.
15:33Oh, shhh.
15:43How's he on the news?
15:45He's supposed to be a secret.
15:47The H2O Diplomacy Committee are denying all interview requests.
15:50The only thing we do know about Barclay-Pierre Dupont, our new ambassador,
15:54is that the world is watching.
15:56Copy that. The Putin's clear. The Putin's clear.
16:01Go on, Dad.
16:03Morning, Colonel.
16:05This is Bingham.
16:06Commander.
16:07What do we know about the leak?
16:08The photo was emailed to the press by an anonymous source.
16:11Except, I've cross-matched the image with CCTV from the hotel.
16:16The photographer was General Dominique de Solier, the French representative.
16:20Kelsey Preece.
16:21She's been undermining NATO since she first drew breath.
16:24And if she discredits units, she gets more influence over the H2O committee.
16:28Get the French ambassador on the phone.
16:29I'm in the mood for bollocking.
16:31Press Association is still demanding access to the hall.
16:33I'm not sure we want to get them offside.
16:35Fine, let them in.
16:36But no live TV. 50 people maximum.
16:38And anyone who steps out of line gets barred.
16:46I'm sorry, General Dussoli. Your access to the hall has been revolved.
16:49Come with us, please.
16:51I'm sorry, General Dussoli.
16:52I'm sorry, General Dussoli.
16:53I'm sorry, General Dussoli.
16:54Just stick to the text on your screen and you'll be fine.
16:57Keep your body language and your vocal tone mutual at all times.
16:59No crossed arms, no raised voice, no sign of aggression or impatience.
17:03Everything you say or do or think has to come through us.
17:06What's the point of being ambassador if all I'm doing is reading?
17:09There is a team of 43 people working around the clock on this document.
17:12UN diplomats and wartime negotiators vetting every last syllable.
17:15Prime Ministers, Presidents, royalty.
17:17Frankly, it's a miracle we got past the contents page.
17:19You cannot go rogue.
17:20Are we ready?
17:21We're all behind you.
17:23Well, yeah, literally. I'm the one standing up there.
17:24You can do this.
17:28Constant shaking.
17:49Tell the press no camera flashes and keep an eye on Barclay's obs.
17:52Blood pressure 138 over 90.
17:54Bit high.
17:55Pulse is 82 and steady.
17:57Is Downing Street on line?
17:59Prime Minister.
18:00Yes, we're here.
18:01All right.
18:02Good luck, everyone.
18:04Mrs Bingham.
18:06Open seals.
18:28Ambassador, are you okay?
18:30Ambassador?
18:31Barkley.
18:32Hmm?
18:32Yeah? Oh, sorry.
18:33Yes, yes, yes.
18:34I'm here.
18:34It's fine.
19:00Hello again.
19:02That's not scripted.
19:03That's not scripted.
19:03Barkley.
19:05Sorry.
19:06Sorry.
19:08I bid you welcome, Ambassador.
19:11And bring to session this diplomatic Congress.
19:14On behalf of all nations, I would like to say how sorry I am about your children.
19:20Are you a parent?
19:22Yes.
19:23Yes, he's a parent.
19:24Teenage child, Kirby.
19:25Barkley, just say yes.
19:27Yes.
19:28I can't imagine what that was like for you.
19:31Your apology is appreciated.
19:34Now back to the text, please.
19:36We begin today by hearing proposals to formalize our peace treaty.
19:39But first, we request a glass of water.
19:47Well, is that coming?
19:52Water from the river.
19:56From the river?
19:57Water.
19:57What?
19:57They drink river water?
19:59Barkley, read the screen.
20:02We will arrange that immediately.
20:08Go, go, go!
20:11Move!
20:16Move!
20:16Move!
20:19If Akka returns the agenda with license.
20:21We will wait.
20:23Okay.
20:23They...
20:25Oh, okay.
20:26They...
20:26They...
20:27They said okay.
20:33Pense formation!
20:34Enough!
20:34Work as you can!
20:37Keep your eyes on the water!
20:39Don't turn your back!
20:40Not for one second!
21:00The glass requires decontamination.
21:03Shall I place it in the airlock?
21:04The water is not for us.
21:07It is for you.
21:12Sorry.
21:12Sorry.
21:13I don't understand.
21:14You will drink it.
21:15Hold on, Barkley.
21:16Get me intel on that water.
21:18You.
21:18Will.
21:19Drink.
21:24Uh...
21:25Just...
21:26Like...
21:27Actually...
21:27Drink it.
21:28E.coli is guaranteed.
21:30Dysentery, meningitis and Legionnaires disease.
21:32Barkley, do not drink the water.
21:34What do I...
21:34What do I say?
21:35Stand by.
21:42Um, with respect, I am unable to drink this.
21:46Why?
21:48Water is contaminated.
21:49Why?
21:50She knows why. Skip to 16, paragraph 12.
21:54We're aware of the current pollution crisis and...
21:56These are the words of a politician.
21:59Vetted and craven and hollow.
22:02You...
22:03Would answer.
22:04Barkley.
22:05Get to the script.
22:07Barkley.
22:08Ambassador, refer to your screen.
22:20Why?
22:22Barkley, no.
22:25Because we were stupid.
22:28That's the truth of it.
22:32And the whole planet's going to hell right now because we didn't...
22:35understand the consequences.
22:37But now you do.
22:39Yeah.
22:40Yeah, now we do.
22:41This is too risky.
22:43No.
22:43Wade.
22:44Still, everyday water companies are pumping poison and sewage into our rivers and oceans,
22:47all the while dishing out bonuses to their bosses.
22:49And the thing is, we are letting them get away with it.
22:53We're just sat at home, flicking through our phones, making tea, thinking it's someone else's problem.
22:56But it's not.
22:57This is my fault.
22:58We all played our part.
23:00Now we have to help fix it.
23:01And the thing is, our kids know this.
23:04Our kids.
23:06They're way ahead of us.
23:08Why aren't we listening?
23:12Today's the day we stop.
23:20I think you are my favourite human.
23:27What?
23:47Oh, I feel amazing.
23:49I'm sorry, but I do.
23:50It's like I want to run.
23:52I just want to run for miles.
23:53I've got so much energy right there.
23:55What?
23:56You're ridiculous.
23:57You know, I was thinking about you today.
23:58Yeah.
23:59When I was standing up there, like a lemon, I was thinking about all those things you told
24:03me, you and your hippie mates.
24:04They're not hippies, and that's not even a word anymore.
24:06Well, I just wish that I'd listen sooner.
24:09But I'm listening now.
24:11I promise you.
24:11Who even are you?
24:13I don't know, but I like it.
24:14You're on telly again.
24:16You're always on telly, aren't you?
24:18They're calling you passionate.
24:19Passionate?
24:20What's me?
24:20You haven't been passionate since Christmas 2010.
24:23Oh!
24:24What are you like?
24:26I need a treat.
24:27Here.
24:28Tastes better than river water.
24:31Do you know it just hit me?
24:32Just now.
24:34This is history in the making.
24:36Right now.
24:37And I'm part of it.
24:38I'm a historical figure.
24:40It's crazy, isn't it?
24:41Okay.
24:43So what's she like then?
24:45Your fishy ambassador?
24:49Are you jealous?
24:50Please.
24:50She is.
24:52You're jealous?
24:53Can we order room service now?
24:55Sure.
24:58I'll have the fish.
24:59Join us.
25:01Join us.
25:01The H2O committee have prepped new models for environmental regulation.
25:04The Greens have been trying to achieve these targets for decades.
25:07That timeframe will be a challenge.
25:08The H2O committee consulting with industry on that.
25:11Moving on.
25:11The French consulate have lost an official complaint over General de Solier's removal from the hall.
25:17They want to reinstate it.
25:18Tough.
25:18They've seen the evidence.
25:19She's denying it.
25:20And she has influence.
25:22I think it would be dangerous to shut her out.
25:24Fine.
25:24Fine.
25:25We've got bigger problems.
25:26Meanwhile, we've been debating communication theories.
25:28How the Homo aqua ambassador is able to send and receive information seemingly instantaneously.
25:34Yeah, we're looking into oceanic mycelium networks.
25:36Mycelium?
25:36That's the mushrooms.
25:37Mushrooms are the reproductive organs of mycelium networks.
25:39Wait, I'm eating reproductive organs on my toes.
25:42Mycelium networks are the fungal threads, believed to connect individual plants and trees to share and recycle vital minerals.
25:48A lot of these theories are debatable.
25:50Yes, I know.
25:51But if algae and fungi interact in a similar way when in water, or if water itself forms some kind
25:56of network,
25:57Homo aqua, amphibia, grandis, all these species could potentially be interconnected.
26:02Like a hive mind?
26:03What if the pearl is their connection point?
26:06Or a filter?
26:07They're so far ahead of us, it's difficult to comprehend.
26:10We're literally children playing guessing games.
26:12The viruses in the depths also that are?
26:14Yeah.
26:34We're so far ahead and well out of it.
26:34Dr. try to ovat the Bhagatar Kiran Buda School,
26:35they can not have erasmus effects.
26:36In theonn岸 father they were so many people worrying nu remplably in operation.
26:38To come to the moment, they can't fullness.
26:42Dad?
26:45Couldn't sleep?
26:57I just read your big speech again.
27:01It's more of a ramble.
27:05Made me... made me proud, though.
27:10Really?
27:12But, with all the attention, are you gonna be safe doing this?
27:18Yeah, of course.
27:19Promise?
27:20Yes.
27:21Promise.
27:25They're moving you out of here tomorrow.
27:27Putting you in a proper safe house, away from all this.
27:30Okay?
27:33I'd rather stay here with you.
27:36The whole world's changing, Dad.
27:39Maybe I needed to.
27:41Maybe it's for the best.
27:42The whole world's changing.
27:43I know.
28:04I'm not sure.
28:05I'm not sure.
28:06I'm not sure.
28:08You're not sure.
28:11I'm not sure.
28:12I'm not sure.
28:12Oh, look, how's the MF where they go?
28:13No, I'm sorry, we're here all day.
28:14Barkley High, Rosemary Hunt, nice suits.
28:16But what can you tell us about Homo Aqua's demands?
28:19How confident are you that we can achieve what they want?
28:21How are you coping under the pressure?
28:23What happens if you mess this up?
28:46Hiya.
28:48Text on screen, please.
28:51Once again, I bid you welcome and bring to session this diplomatic congress.
28:57World leaders have consulted with climate scientists and private enterprise on the subject of ocean pollution.
29:03We can guarantee a 50% reduction by 2065.
29:08Further reduction will then be exponential.
29:102065.
29:12Correct.
29:1450%?
29:16Yes.
29:18Explain.
29:22It will take time to raise the finance and resources to tackle the problem.
29:26But world governments are committed to making it a priority.
29:2940 years?
29:31Yes.
29:33This is unacceptable.
29:35An operation of this scale will stretch our resources to their limits.
29:38We regret we cannot guarantee a significant reduction of ocean pollution in a shorter timeframe.
29:45So this is your final offer.
29:50You've waited millions of years beneath the ocean.
29:54Now we are asking for just 40 more years to reset, to give you what you want.
29:59You are asking for 15,000 revolutions of the sun.
30:07When scores of us are dying every day.
30:11Should we wait?
30:12While your engines deafen us.
30:16While your engines deafen us.
30:18While your trawlers ravage our home.
30:20While we choke on your plastic and sewage.
30:26We cannot hear.
30:28Or see.
30:30Or breathe.
30:32So tell me why we should live like this for just one day longer.
30:41I'm sorry.
30:42I'm sorry.
30:42I'm so sorry.
30:45I'm so sorry.
30:46I believe that you are sorry.
30:48But are your leaders?
30:51The world is united in this desire for meaningful change.
30:59Do they wish that they could achieve this sooner?
31:05Yes, of course.
31:07Do they want to accelerate this process?
31:13We are committed to undoing the damage we've inflicted on our planet.
31:18How committed?
31:20It is our greatest desire.
31:26Then we shall grant it.
31:34Sorry, what do you mean?
31:35Your greatest desire.
31:37Is happening.
32:09What's happening?
32:10I don't know.
32:13Do you hear that?
32:15Is it a storm?
32:18There's no storm.
32:23It's plastic.
32:25Mum.
32:25Mum.
32:26Oh my god.
32:28Mum.
32:30Mum.
32:31Mum.
32:34Turn the car around.
32:35Turn it around.
32:36Turn it around.
32:37Get us out of here.
32:46It's happening everywhere all at once.
32:47The plastic's coming out the oceans into our cities.
32:49It's not just the oceans.
32:50It's coming out the Thames, out the Nile, the Hudson.
32:53Lock down the building.
32:54Get everyone to the lower levels.
32:56You can.
32:56Come on.
32:57Come on.
32:57Move it.
32:58Keep going.
32:59Keep going.
33:01Barkley, we need to leave.
33:02Right now.
33:03Come on.
33:07Now, you have to stop.
33:09We are cleaning up your mess.
33:15Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait.
33:17You're back.
33:18Barkley, what's happening?
33:20They're cleaning up the ocean.
33:21The plastic, the pollution, all of it.
33:22They're giving it back.
33:23But we're in a car.
33:24It's chaos.
33:25What, you're outside?
33:26We can't get to the safe house.
33:27We can't cross the river.
33:28Just come to the hall.
33:31Check the driver.
33:31It's Imperial House.
33:32Imperial House?
33:33Can you take us to Imperial House?
33:35Okay.
33:49There's nowhere to go.
33:50Don't worry, okay?
33:51We'll get you out.
33:54Ah!
33:56You've got to be listening to me.
33:58We have to run for it.
33:59But I need to help the driver.
34:00Is he?
34:01No, don't look at him.
34:01Listen.
34:02Get out and run.
34:03In there and find your dad.
34:04I'll be right back.
34:05I'll be right behind you.
34:05Promise me.
34:06Just run.
34:06I promise.
34:07Go.
34:16Hey.
34:17Can you hear me?
34:22I'm so sorry.
