00:00Previously on Dark Matter
00:01We all woke up just like you. No memories. No idea who we are, how we got here.
00:05The crew of this ship is supposed to be dead.
00:07They're definitely not supposed to be diseased cannibal monsters.
00:10It's a nasty gas.
00:14She has all her memories in her head.
00:16She's been having dreams.
00:17Dreams she thinks might be memories, except that they're not just hers.
00:21Alphanumeric lock code.
00:22Which none of us can remember.
00:24You ever dream about the code, kid?
00:26No.
00:26Now it's still rattling around in your head, isn't it?
00:33The Emperor is dead!
00:35You will pay for this.
00:38Find the Prince!
00:40Arrest him!
00:48Hiding in the shadows like a rat.
00:51Take him!
01:19Something's not right. It's happening again.
01:21Heart rate's spiking. Brainwave activity is off the charts. She's in trouble.
01:42There was a bit of a problem with the job.
01:45What kind of a problem?
01:48The ship was destroyed.
01:50Are you kidding me?
01:53Wait.
01:53Wait.
01:54Is this some kind of a sick joke?
01:55To be more precise, we blew it up.
01:58You blew it up?
01:59You blew the ship up!
02:01That's right.
02:03I imagine your client's going to be angry.
02:05Oh, yeah.
02:06I think maybe.
02:07Yeah, just a little.
02:08Angry enough to string you up, cut your heart out, and show it to you while it's still beating?
02:12Because that's what I'm going to do.
02:16Wow.
02:19Okay, that's a whole lot of hostility coming out of nowhere, given, you know, that I'm the aggrieved party here.
02:25You lied to us.
02:27No, I never lied.
02:28You didn't think it was worth mentioning that the Far Horizon was a plague ship?
02:31That this was all about some failed attempts to create an immortality drug?
02:37Okay.
02:38You know, first of all, neglecting to mention certain details is not the same as lying.
02:42You just want to point that out?
02:42And secondly, if I told you about the virus, you wouldn't have taken the job.
02:47So, sue me.
02:55I'm not buying it.
02:57What do you mean?
02:58If he really wanted us to get the ship, he would have warned us about the virus, so we could
03:01have at least gone in prepared.
03:03You're saying he wanted us to fail?
03:05Ferris wants our heads, right?
03:07Maybe they offered him something to take us out.
03:10Perhaps he thought he could win you the way.
03:11If we succeed, he gets us salvaged.
03:14And if we're killed, Ferris pays him off.
03:16You know what the real problem is?
03:18Even if all this is true, he's still the closest thing we have to a friend.
03:23What's our supply situation?
03:26Bad.
03:27Bordering on desperate.
03:29We've got enough fuel to reach the outer colonies.
03:31There's not much law out there, so we'd probably be safe, but we don't have enough food.
03:36We'd have to go back in the stasis pods to even make it that far.
03:39After what happened last time, not a chance.
03:41And what would we do when we get there?
03:44Find some work if we're lucky.
03:46If not, sell the ship.
03:50Which is what I have been saying from the start, thank you very much.
03:54You said you'd never do that.
03:56Believe me, I don't want to.
03:57But I'm starting to think that we may not have a choice.
04:07So what's up?
04:10Well, technically this is none of my business.
04:13Although we are a small group of people forced to live in close quarters.
04:16So really it's everyone's business.
04:18What are you talking about?
04:24When three and I were on the freighter, it was kind of a life for death situation.
04:30And sometimes in those moments people say things and they're not necessarily...
04:35You're talking about the fact that three and I slept together.
04:41Okay.
04:42So what's the problem?
04:46Obviously you're both adults and you can do whatever you want.
04:49I just...
04:52I found it a little surprising.
04:56Look.
04:57Not that I have to explain myself to you or...
04:59No.
05:00Hey.
05:00Hey, shut up.
05:01Shut up.
05:04I'm not even exactly sure why I did it.
05:07I was restless and feeling lonely and he...
05:11He was just there.
05:16Okay.
05:19Sure.
05:22That's it.
05:25The thing is, with a guy like that, you know there are never going to be any complications.
05:31Right now I don't have room for...
05:34Complications.
05:39So you're saying with someone else there might be...
05:44Complications.
05:45Exactly.
05:46Yes.
05:49Okay.
05:50All right.
06:00Hey.
06:01Hey.
06:02You busy?
06:03I'm just going over some fuel consumption numbers but...
06:08It can... it can wait.
06:10Come on.
06:18You really think there might be treasure in that vault?
06:22Well, until we can figure out a way to get in, there's no way to know for sure.
06:26What if there is a way?
06:28What are you talking about?
06:30Well, I've been checking out some of the equipment in the infirmary.
06:33You know how I like to fiddle.
06:35Anyway, with the android's help, I think I might be able to adapt some of the medical equipment to work
06:41as a kind of mind probe.
06:43And whose mind would we be probing?
06:46Mine.
06:47I've got all your memories in my head, I know it.
06:50But they're all jumbled up and they don't make any sense, so if I could just find a way...
06:53No, listen, this sounds way too dangerous.
06:55We'll find another way to get into the vault.
07:01It's not just about the money.
07:04You said you wanted to change, become better than what you were before.
07:09But how can you take a different path if you don't even know how you got there in the first
07:14place?
07:16If you don't remember, you're just going to end up making the same mistakes all over again.
07:24I don't want to watch that happen.
07:31Are we sure this is right?
07:33If she wants to volunteer, let her volunteer.
07:35Oh, so now you want to treat her like an adult?
07:37Hey, I'm not the one who gave her a vote on how things go around here.
07:41Can't have it both ways.
07:44So how's this going to work?
07:46She'll experience the hidden memories like a dream.
07:49Like she's a passenger inside someone else's body.
07:53All she has to do is observe.
07:55And remember as much as possible.
07:57Will it hurt?
07:58It shouldn't.
08:00But I feel it necessary to point out that the equipment is not designed to be used this way.
08:04I know. I know.
08:07We'll be monitoring your vital signs.
08:09If anything goes wrong, we'll pull you out.
08:15I'm ready.
08:41You must remember to always ground yourself.
08:45Understand?
08:46Good. That's it.
08:52Again.
09:00Stop.
09:04Not like this.
09:06Like this.
09:07Yes, sir.
09:09Always watch your opponent.
09:10Do not look at his eyes.
09:12But look at his feet.
09:13His hips.
09:15It will tell you where he's moving.
09:17Understand?
09:23Again.
09:37Why did you hesitate?
09:39I won the point.
09:41There was no need to strike.
09:49What is it you think you're learning here?
09:52Swordsmanship.
09:53Father.
09:54No.
09:55You're learning discipline.
10:04You're learning to respect our ways and traditions.
10:13When you are emperor and your enemies find you vulnerable, do you think they will hesitate?
10:44Something's not right.
10:45Rain wave activity is all over the place.
10:48Pull her out.
10:52What?
11:00What happened?
11:01You shut it down.
11:02Why?
11:03Because I don't want you to have a stroke.
11:05That's why.
11:07Hey.
11:08This was a bad idea.
11:36It was one of your memories.
11:37It was one of your memories.
11:39It was one of your memories.
11:39That's what I was experiencing when they pulled me out.
11:42I'm sure of it.
11:43You were younger.
11:45Maybe 12 or 13.
11:47You were sparring with another boy.
11:49You went easy on him.
11:51And your father...
11:54Well, he wasn't very happy.
11:59I see.
12:02Sorry.
12:02I wish I could have seen more.
12:04Something useful.
12:06You need to learn control.
12:10I...
12:11I don't know how.
12:12The memories, they're just random.
12:14No.
12:14You need to learn to control yourself.
12:17Look.
12:19You're a smart girl.
12:21But you have an undisciplined mind.
12:22You need to learn to observe without emotion.
12:25It's not so easy.
12:29Some of the memories, they're pretty...
12:32intense.
12:34Yeah, but they're nothing but recordings of past events.
12:38They can't be changed.
12:40So an emotional reaction...
12:44serves no purpose.
12:51Two, this is five.
12:53Go ahead.
12:54I wanna try again.
12:55Please.
13:01Are you sure about this?
13:03Yeah, I can handle it this time.
13:04Now that I know what to expect.
13:08Okay.
13:13Good luck.
13:31Brother.
13:33What is this?
13:34Where are they taking your things?
13:35Where do you think?
13:37The ship leaves tonight.
13:39What ship?
13:41You remember when you made this for me?
13:45That time you went to the beach.
13:47I couldn't have been more than six or seven years old.
13:51I remember.
13:53It's funny to think that I kept it all these years.
13:57I don't understand.
13:59I do.
14:00It makes perfect sense.
14:03Father's getting old, and it's dangerous to have more than one heir to the throne living in the palace.
14:10It gives people ideas.
14:14What did he do?
14:16Don't play innocent.
14:20It's bad enough you've had my son banished off world.
14:23Don't make it worse by insulting his intelligence.
14:27I've had him banished?
14:29Your seal was on the royal proclamation.
14:34This was Father's doing.
14:36He wants people to fear me.
14:38He thinks it's the only way I can rule.
14:40You have used that excuse for every cruelty you've visited on your brother for the last ten years.
14:47Maybe you have yourself convinced that the rest of us know better.
14:56Brother.
14:58Please.
15:00Goodbye.
15:20My lord, I've been looking for you.
15:23Out of my way, Akita-san. I need to speak to our glorious emperor.
15:28Maybe you should wait until you're in a better frame of mind.
15:32You dare disobey me.
15:34I'm not your student anymore.
15:38And I'm not afraid of him.
15:43As you wish, Denka.
15:59Been bad already, father?
16:03Adding another one of your spells?
16:09why don't you just get it over with die already
16:23i know what you did
16:28wasn't enough just to be cruel you had to do it in my name
16:34you want me to be an emperor like you but i will never be like you
16:42do you hear me
17:00well well what do we have here
17:07you're going to pay for this
17:10you did this
17:11i am the emperor's beloved wife
17:15and you are his cruel vindictive son who unjustly banished his own half brother
17:22and who's been seen staggering about the palace drunk
17:26cursing the emperor's name
17:29who do you think they're going to believe my son will be emperor and you will be dead
17:46the emperor is dead
17:49find the prince
17:50arrest him
17:54hiding in the shadows like a rat
17:56take him
18:25what's happening again
18:27heart rate spiking
18:28brainwave activity is off the charts
18:30she's in trouble
18:31shut it down
18:32pull her out
18:33understood
18:39five
18:40wake up
18:42five
18:42wake up
18:44five
18:45can you hear me
18:46what's happening
18:47evidently the dream state persists even without the aid of a mind probe
18:50five can you hear me
18:52five
18:57what about a shot of adrenaline
18:58that should wake her up
19:00it could
19:00but with her brain activity already elevated it could make matters worse
19:04this is not ordinary REM sleep
19:06for all intents and purposes her brain is functioning on a conscious level
19:10but the dream elements have replaced normal sensory input
19:13but she knows she's dreaming right
19:15she should have full memory of everything that happened before she went in
19:22her readings are stabilizing
19:25she's calmed down
19:25maybe she's learned to control it like she said she would
19:36well
19:44sorry
20:44Guys, I guess you just scored.
20:46Dinner's on me tonight.
20:51What the hell?
21:13Dax.
21:17TJ, what's going on?
21:19Are you all right?
21:24I've been shot.
21:25My guy.
21:32It's okay.
21:33I don't think it hit anything right.
21:35I'll just have to keep pressure on it to stop the bleeding.
21:38Well, we have to get you to a doctor.
21:39No.
21:40No, no doctors.
21:41They'd find us.
21:42Who?
21:43What is this?
21:45The guy you picked yesterday.
21:46What?
21:47The guy with the beard?
21:48Yeah.
21:49Well, that was an ordinary mark.
21:50He was connected.
21:52We didn't have anything.
21:54It just looked like some weird data storage device.
21:57I couldn't even read it.
21:58I need some water or something.
22:00Um.
22:04Here.
22:07It wasn't a data storage device.
22:09It was some kind of key.
22:15And this thing.
22:18I was going to see if I could sell it in the market for a few bars.
22:22I think it's worth a lot more than that.
22:24They want it back pretty bad.
22:27Who's they?
22:30Some guys came around asking questions.
22:33I mean, someone must have tipped them off because we didn't even see them coming.
22:37TJ.
22:39Where are the others?
22:44They're dead.
22:47They killed them.
22:59We have to get out of here.
23:01We have to get on a ship.
23:02We don't have any money.
23:07It's not enough.
23:09It's enough for one.
23:10You get as far as I come up.
23:12No, I'm not leaving you.
23:15I'm not leaving you.
23:19I was in a coffee shop this morning, casing another market.
23:22I overheard two guys talking.
23:25So?
23:26We need to get to Cargo Bay 4.
23:28Now.
23:30It's our only chance.
23:32Please tell me this is the last one.
23:34It's the last one.
23:36You're not just saying that, are you?
23:40All right.
23:41We are out of here.
23:53TJ.
23:54Where are you?
23:57Doc.
23:59Hold on.
24:13We need to find a good place to hide.
24:15Are you going to notice if I bleed all over the freeze-dried food?
24:19I've got an idea.
24:25Are you okay?
24:36This isn't looking so good.
24:39I'll be fine.
24:41Look.
24:42I heard the engines kick in a few minutes ago.
24:44We're probably already in FTL.
24:46So?
24:47I'll go find the crew and I'll come clean.
24:49I'll tell them we're here and ask for their help.
24:52Are you crazy?
24:53They're already underway.
24:55They've probably got a schedule to keep.
24:57They're not going to turn around and go back just for a couple of stowaways.
25:01Why would they when they could just shove us out an airlock?
25:04Do you really think they'd do that?
25:07You won't take a chance.
25:07They won't.
25:10All right.
25:12You win.
25:16Where are you going?
25:18There's got to be a sick bay on this tub somewhere.
25:21I'll sneak out, see if I can find some supplies so we can sell you up good.
25:26Then we wait it out.
25:30Okay.
25:32Be careful.
25:37We're going to be fine.
25:44So, who the hell is Miss Mapplethorpe anyway?
25:47She was a teacher I had when I was a kid.
25:50It's as good a code as any.
25:52I know I'll never forget it.
25:54She's a hit me on the knuckle for the ruler.
26:04What is it?
26:05We have a problem.
26:07What?
26:07Her autonomic functions are receiving diminished input from her hypothalamus.
26:11What the hell does that mean?
26:13Her organs are shutting down.
26:16If we don't find a way to pull her out, she won't make it.
26:29Her mind is still functioning, but it's receiving and processing only imaginary inputs from the dream scenarios.
26:35Her brain is losing contact with her body.
26:38Without the brain, the body dies.
26:40Precisely.
26:41We could put her in stasis.
26:42That would keep her alive.
26:43I don't think that's a good idea.
26:45She's lost in the memory.
26:46She's gone through deep.
26:47Am I right?
26:48It's possible.
26:50And the longer she stays in there, the worse it gets.
26:52We have to get her out now or we never will.
26:54How?
26:55Someone has to go in there and get her.
26:57Is that even possible?
26:59Effectively, yes.
27:01I'll do it.
27:02No.
27:04I'll go.
27:07I'm not arguing.
27:47Well, well, well.
27:48What do we have here?
27:50Looks like a stowaway.
27:52Maybe a thief?
27:54Junkie.
27:55I'm not a junkie.
27:57Then why the meds?
27:59What's the matter?
28:01Can't talk?
28:03I don't worry about it.
28:05There's no sound where you're going anyway.
28:09You can't do this.
28:11Sure, I can.
28:12Barely even breaking a sweat here.
28:13Okay, well, what about the rest of your crew?
28:15What about them?
28:16Maybe they'd object to throwing a girl out the airlock.
28:19You don't know the rest of my crew.
28:24Wait.
28:25Wait.
28:26I have something.
28:27Something valuable.
28:29Really?
28:29It's a key.
28:31I'm not exactly sure what for, but the guy I stole it from killed all my friends trying
28:36to get it back.
28:36So it must be worth something, right?
28:39It's hidden somewhere on this ship.
28:41You'll never find it without my help.
28:46I can live with that.
28:48Please.
28:49No.
28:50No, please.
28:51Please.
28:52No.
28:54Don't do it!
28:59Because you'll experience the memories through her perception, they won't seem like your
29:03own the way they do for her.
29:05You'll feel more like an outside observer.
29:08For that reason, I don't think there's any chance of you losing yourself the way she did.
29:12That's good to know.
29:14Of course.
29:15It's just a theory.
29:18Lex.
29:20How will you find her?
29:22She's got a lifetime of memories crammed inside that head.
29:25That's a lot of ground to cover.
29:26I can do my best to sync your brain pattern to hers.
29:29That should get you close.
29:31But you'll still have to will yourself in and out of every memory you encounter until
29:35you find her.
29:37Sounds like a piece of cake.
29:39You can do this.
29:40You'll find her and you'll bring her back.
29:42I know it.
29:45Okay.
29:47Fire it up.
30:02Little kind of gossip, right?
30:04I still can't believe we got away with it.
30:07Yeah, there's only one possible explanation.
30:09We're the best.
30:13I don't know.
30:14I'll be dead.
30:15It's one of mine.
30:22There she is.
30:24Take a look, boys.
30:26We arrived at the station in a shuttle.
30:29We left in that.
30:30That's what I call trading up.
30:33No one's ever stolen a Galactic Authority destroyer before.
30:36This is going to change everything.
30:38You're damn right.
30:40Now let's go get a drink.
30:47Brothers.
30:49Welcome back.
30:51The general himself wanted to be here to congratulate you, but he had to return to Iraq as Satter to
30:56coordinate our next campaign.
31:02A toast to the insurrection.
31:06The insurrection.
31:11That's where it got out.
31:12Do people know what we did?
31:13You kidding?
31:14G.A. won't let this get out.
31:15It's too embarrassing.
31:16Any news station tries to broadcast this, they'll get shut down before they can finish the report.
31:21No.
31:22This is way too big.
31:23There's no way they can keep this quiet.
31:26People everywhere are going to hear about this, and you know what?
31:30They're going to be inspired.
31:32They're going to realize that the Galactic Authority isn't invincible.
31:35They're going to open their eyes to the corruption of the corporate system, and they're going to start fighting back.
31:41This is just the beginning.
31:43Well said, brother.
31:46You bastard.
31:49How could you do this?
31:51Caleb, what's wrong?
31:52Why didn't you tell us?
31:54What's he talking about?
31:56See for yourself.
31:57It's all over the net.
32:00In the stunning escalation of their terror campaign, members of the so-called Protheon insurrection have attacked and destroyed a
32:08space station in the Hyde of Sector.
32:10The exact death toll is as yet unknown, but it's estimated as many as 10,000 people were on board
32:17when the station was bombed.
32:19The perpetrators are believed to have escaped on a stolen Galactic Authority destroyer.
32:24This is a mistake.
32:25Commander Tarvis of the Galactic Authority issued this statement earlier today.
32:30These so-called rebels have once again shown themselves to be nothing more than depraved thugs with no respect for
32:36law, order, or human decency.
32:39And I promise everyone here today, and everyone watching in the far-flung corners of the galaxy, they will be
32:45brought to justice.
32:48I understand.
32:50You didn't attack that station.
32:51There was no bomb.
32:52The shuttle you left in the hangar bay, it was rigged to blow the minute you jumped to FTL in
32:57the destroyer.
32:59Why would you do that?
33:00We got the ship.
33:02We got away.
33:03That was the mission.
33:04The mission was to make a statement.
33:06The mission was to serve notice, and that's exactly what we did.
33:10The general would never have agreed to this.
33:12Who do you think came up with the plan in the first place?
33:15We just murdered 10,000 innocent civilians.
33:21Those people sold themselves and their families to the corporations a long time ago.
33:26No one who participates in that corrupt and decadent lifestyle can claim innocence.
33:34I thought you were made of stronger stuff than that.
33:40Man up!
34:20This isn't right.
34:26It has to be a mistake.
34:28It has to be.
34:43Enough.
34:46That's enough.
34:51I'm back.
34:54Hey, hi.
34:56Hi.
34:59You're just in time. I was about to go make some soup.
35:02That sounds great.
35:04Oh, Jonesy's still a little lame in her left foreleg.
35:06Okay, well your father will be home tomorrow and he can take a look at it.
35:09And it's his birthday coming up, so should we make him something special?
35:15Elderberry pie?
35:17I thought elderberry pie was your favorite, not his.
35:20Are you sure about that?
35:24Okay. Elderberry pie it is.
35:26I'll see you in the kitchen when you're done, okay?
35:28Okay.
35:36What are you doing here?
35:39You can see me?
35:40Of course I can see you.
35:43And I know you're not supposed to be here.
35:46Whose memory is this anyway?
35:50Well, they call me Titch for what that's worth.
35:54But I'm pretty sure it's one's.
35:56I see a boy's face in the mirror every morning.
36:00It doesn't look all that much like him.
36:02But the only other possibility is three and I kind of doubt he grew up in a place like this.
36:08Yeah, I know what you mean.
36:11It's nice.
36:13It's better than nice.
36:16He's got two parents who love him.
36:19They've got a farm, animals, food on the table.
36:23It's perfect.
36:25How long have you been here?
36:27I've lost track.
36:30It was summer when I came.
36:32And it's winter now.
36:36Every day I go skating on the pond.
36:39You've been on the table less than two hours.
36:43Well, I guess time works a little different here.
36:49You know it's not real, right?
36:54I thought we'd lost you.
36:57Thought you'd forgotten these were only memories.
37:03Sometimes I do forget.
37:06You have to come back with me.
37:08Your body's dying.
37:11Your mind's gone and without it...
37:13Well, just put me in stasis.
37:14I'll be fine.
37:15Why?
37:15So you can stay here?
37:17It's not even your memory.
37:19I saw some of my own memories.
37:22No, thanks.
37:25Well, that much I can understand.
37:28Then let me stay.
37:31Look, I admit, out there in the real world, we've got our problems.
37:36Maybe that's an understatement.
37:39But in here, you've got no control.
37:42You're just along for the ride.
37:43That's exactly what I like about it.
37:45I don't have to think.
37:47I don't have to worry.
37:48But it can't last.
37:50Because as nice as all this is, there's a storm cloud coming and you know it.
37:55Whoever grew up here didn't wind up on that ship without something happening to them.
37:59Something bad.
38:02Maybe that dad comes home drunk one day and murders the mom.
38:06Maybe terrorists are open and set off a bomb.
38:08Who knows?
38:09But it happened to me.
38:11It happened to you.
38:12And it'll happen to him.
38:18Maybe it all ends badly out there in the real world, too.
38:22But then again, maybe not.
38:25And here, you can't change anything out there.
38:29We can at least try.
38:49He's back.
38:51Where is she?
38:51Did you find her?
39:00I thought we'd lost you there.
39:02How are you feeling?
39:05Okay, I guess.
39:07Do you know where you are?
39:09Back on the ship.
39:13I guess there's no place like home.
39:34I saw some more of your memories.
39:41I know what happened to you.
39:42I know where you're from.
39:45I already know.
39:48You do?
39:50I found a royal signet ring among my things.
39:53And I did some research.
39:56Turns out I was a prince.
40:01Heir to the throne of Ishida.
40:04Until I murdered my own father.
40:06No.
40:07No, you didn't.
40:08You didn't kill him.
40:09What are you talking about?
40:11I was there.
40:12I saw it.
40:15You found his body, but...
40:17He was already dead.
40:22It was the Empress.
40:24She wanted her own son to rule.
40:26Your half-brother.
40:29The Empress.
40:31I saw some of what you had to do to get out of there alive.
40:34And it wasn't pretty.
40:37Who knows what you had to do to survive after that.
40:40But the point is...
40:42It wasn't your fault.
40:45And...
40:46Now that you know...
40:48You can put it behind you, right?
40:51You don't have to be that person anymore.
40:56Right?
41:17Come in.
41:19I wanted to thank you for coming to get me.
41:24You're welcome.
41:26You should know one and two also volunteered.
41:29Not three.
41:33You know, it's one of the reasons why I didn't want to come back.
41:38I never felt like I knew who to trust out here.
41:41I mean...
41:42I thought I could trust too, but...
41:46Sometimes she scares me a little.
41:48Yeah, join the club.
41:52But now at least I know I can trust you.
42:03Good night.
42:05Good night.
42:07Good night.
42:08Good night.
42:08Good night.
42:22Good night.
42:25of the mastermind behind the bombing of Station Hyadam-12,
42:29known to his followers as simply the General.
42:32Although he's a subject of an intense manhunt by the Galactic Authority,
42:36his current whereabouts remain unknown.
