00:00:17I don't know.
00:00:40¶¶
00:01:17¶¶
00:01:47¶¶
00:01:491,900 hours. Cruising as before.
00:01:531,900 hours. Cruising as before. So noted.
00:02:01Good evening.
00:02:03Anything interesting?
00:02:05Just keeping an eye on our course.
00:02:07Marcus has me as acting navigator since we ended up short-handed.
00:02:12How about young Royce? How's he doing?
00:02:15Well enough.
00:02:17You know, it's morning back home right now.
00:02:20Homesick?
00:02:21Of course not.
00:02:23I do love with children.
00:02:25That bad?
00:02:26He needs some discipline kicked into him.
00:02:28But I'll admit,
00:02:29it'll be nice to have a dedicated electronic warfare specialist with us this time.
00:02:33Concept mop.
00:02:35Con, aye.
00:02:38Strobing contact bearing 040 by 022.
00:02:41Distance approximately 2.5 million Aramans.
00:02:44ID?
00:02:45You looked clean until about 15 seconds ago.
00:02:48Now I'm getting flashes of a scrambled signal.
00:02:50She looks to pass close.
00:02:51At present course of speed, about 1,100 Aramans
00:02:54off our starboard side, hide alone.
00:02:56Mr. Barrows?
00:02:58Mr. Masterson?
00:03:00Shall we go to quarters?
00:03:02Well, that's the kind of decision you were hired to make.
00:03:04Sir?
00:03:05The choice is yours.
00:03:06Have it sounded, or call the captain and ask him.
00:03:09Abner, I'm the XO. I should really-
00:03:10No, you really shouldn't.
00:03:12Give him a chance to earn his pay.
00:03:14Concept mod. Contact confirmed as blacklisted ship.
00:03:17We have full legal authority to destroy or seize.
00:03:20Designated contact as target 1.
00:03:25Time's wasting, mister.
00:03:28Sound general quarters.
00:03:29All hands to battle stations.
00:03:37Abner, he really should have deferred to me after I'll be executive officer of this ship.
00:03:46Of course.
00:03:47You're absolutely right.
00:03:54Magazines, manned and ready.
00:03:56Hedger 1 mount reports manned and ready.
00:03:58Cobra mount reports manned and ready.
00:04:00Hedger 2 manned and ready.
00:04:01Quad mount reports manned and ready.
00:04:02Hedger 2 mount reports manned and ready.
00:04:04All guns manned and ready.
00:04:05Hedger 2 manned and ready.
00:04:08What's happening?
00:04:09Why are we at quarters?
00:04:11New contact, captain.
00:04:12High on the bow of starboard.
00:04:14It's blacklisted.
00:04:15Why was I informed by the alarms instead of you?
00:04:19I-I considered then why didn't you?
00:04:24We'll talk about this later.
00:04:26I have the con.
00:04:27Threat board on one.
00:04:29Combat condition.
00:04:30Ceiling pressure doors.
00:04:34She'll pass right a beam of us.
00:04:37Couldn't ask for a better setup.
00:04:39Set mod, distance to target?
00:04:41Contact is close distance to 2 million armaments.
00:04:43Speed is constant at 200,000 APH.
00:04:46She's drifting.
00:04:47Trying to sneak through undetected.
00:04:49Who generated the blacklist warp?
00:04:51The Arkwright family.
00:04:58The Arkwrights?
00:04:59We're collecting bounties for those beasts?
00:05:03Keep those thoughts to yourself.
00:05:06If you need a reason, this means serious prize money.
00:05:19When over in con, break reactor to 100%.
00:05:23Standby is for mid-flank speed operations.
00:05:26Max output I.
00:05:28Reactors one and two.
00:05:29Latch the rods and lift to the stops.
00:05:31Aye, sir. Latching and lifting.
00:05:40We could try pushing her a little bit.
00:05:43Not this time.
00:05:44Let's see how she handles ordinary combat first.
00:05:47Come, correct course and angle to match the target.
00:05:51And prepare to reverse.
00:05:53Aye, sir. Adjusting course.
00:06:06Contact is close distance to 1.4 million armaments.
00:06:09Standby.
00:06:10Confirmed classification Bolton class freighter.
00:06:13Looks like she's even older than we are.
00:06:18Focus on your jobs, please.
00:06:19Let's not have her getting away.
00:06:21Target course.
00:06:23Matched.
00:06:25All back standard?
00:06:26Aye, sir.
00:06:27All back standard.
00:06:39Nice and smooth.
00:06:41Just like my dad's clipper.
00:06:43Burn up 20%?
00:06:44Burn up 20% aye.
00:06:45Contact approaches day.
00:06:52After this patrol, you should come on another trip with us.
00:06:56Uh...
00:06:57Yeah, that sounds nice.
00:06:58But this freighter won't catch itself.
00:07:00What's she doing?
00:07:01She should be trying to invade us by now.
00:07:03Captain, target has increased speed to 201,000 APH and is accelerating.
00:07:07She's gunning it, Marcus.
00:07:08Oh, that's brace!
00:07:10Flight reverse!
00:07:18Don't call me by first name in front of the men.
00:07:20Captain, target one is veering to starboard.
00:07:23Cut burn to 80%.
00:07:26Full burn on port, three quarters on starboard valve tips for 15 seconds.
00:07:45Cops, transmit an assist order and identify us.
00:07:48Cobra mount, prepare a warning shot over her bow.
00:07:53Chief, the threat board just went out.
00:07:56Recycling ambulance, sir.
00:07:57Con, target one is slowing down now.
00:07:59Attention all passengers.
00:08:01The new year has arrived.
00:08:03The party is in full swing on sea deck.
00:08:07Where are you?
00:08:08Get on down and join the celebration.
00:08:10What is that?
00:08:11Who is playing that?
00:08:12I'm sorry, Captain, it's-
00:08:13What are you doing?
00:08:14It's part of an old system.
00:08:16A virtual personality for tourists.
00:08:18Her name's Claire.
00:08:19Some of our components were purchased second hand off an old cruise liner.
00:08:23We encountered her during the shakedown run.
00:08:25Captain Timmons had all of her code removed.
00:08:28I don't see how she can still be functioning.
00:08:30Stars and garters, have we got the event of a lifetime lined up for you.
00:08:34Captain, target's slowing further.
00:08:36Shut her up.
00:08:38Mark.
00:08:39Captain, I think he's trying to back down and run the other way.
00:08:42Shut her up!
00:08:45Fire the warning shot!
00:08:47Cobra Mountain, fire!
00:08:51No change in target course.
00:08:53All hands brace, reverse thrust.
00:08:55All ahead one quarter.
00:08:56Eye through.
00:09:10Mr. Sabrin, please prepare to disable her.
00:09:14Fire at her with, uh, I think half shots would do the trick.
00:09:23All guns, target her forward engines.
00:09:25Hydro One, load half shots.
00:09:27Cops, any acknowledgement yet?
00:09:29It's a little funny, Captain.
00:09:30We may have just heard her channel open, then close again.
00:09:33Nothing further.
00:09:34Very well.
00:09:35Disable her please, Mr. Sabrin.
00:09:38Hydro One, fire!
00:09:39Fire!
00:09:43Weapon missed.
00:09:44Leading target.
00:09:45Adjust minus forward.
00:09:46Adjust and fire.
00:09:53Adjust and fire.
00:09:54Adjusting minus forward.
00:09:55Fire!
00:10:01Hit, Captain.
00:10:02Confirmed.
00:10:03Target's forward engines appear to be disabled.
00:10:05She's spinning free.
00:10:06Helm, seize forward thrust.
00:10:08Burn reverse at one quarter.
00:10:10Twenty-five second burn.
00:10:12Bring us alongside.
00:10:13We'll extend the mag at one thousand yards.
00:10:15Call it out, Foley.
00:10:16Aye, sir.
00:10:18Mr. Royce, can we open their doors?
00:10:19Do we have to do this old-fashioned way?
00:10:21It should be easy, sir.
00:10:22They're shutting down their communication systems,
00:10:25like they think I'm gonna hack them through that.
00:10:26They should be worried about the key rate.
00:10:28Do we have a key?
00:10:29I'm checking now, sir, but it's gonna take a while.
00:10:32You don't have a while.
00:10:33Helm, continue your approach.
00:10:35Let's get into position.
00:10:36This needs to be handled quickly.
00:10:37One thousand yards.
00:10:38Devil's distance, Captain.
00:10:40Deploy the mag.
00:10:48The rotation is slowing.
00:10:50She's dragging us with her.
00:11:05Five, four, three, two, one, synchro.
00:11:11Burn all tips to Starbird.
00:11:13Relo's in.
00:11:20Accepting the lock?
00:11:22Prepare boarding action and take charge.
00:11:25Aye, Captain.
00:11:27All compartments prepare for boarding action.
00:11:29Mr. Merchoff, assemble your men at airlock four.
00:11:34Let's select them.
00:11:37You too.
00:11:38Marcus.
00:11:49Target one is fighting the mag.
00:11:50Royce Key?
00:11:51Yeah, yeah, I've got it.
00:11:53For a second there, I thought I'd have to magic one up.
00:11:55Are we ready to breach?
00:11:57Yes, sir.
00:12:02All right, boys.
00:12:03This is your first engagement.
00:12:05Remember your training and put into practice.
00:12:06Prepare to take your first trophies.
00:12:08To Hong, to Zanong!
00:12:10Stay with your arm, Mr. Hess.
00:12:11We've got this in hand.
00:12:13Captain told me to take charge.
00:12:14The mop-up is worth your attention.
00:12:16I have my orders.
00:12:22Very well, sir.
00:12:24Specializing walkway.
00:12:26For sure.
00:12:26No!
00:12:31They've dispersed through the airlock.
00:12:33Advancing towards the bridge.
00:12:34Perchoff commanding.
00:12:35Hanlon's fire team moving aft.
00:12:37Baldwin taking the crew quarters.
00:12:40Hanlon reports engineering secured.
00:12:42All hands in the space have surrendered.
00:12:44No resistance encountered yet.
00:12:46Wait.
00:12:48Be advised.
00:12:49Baldwin has encountered token resistance in the crew areas.
00:12:52Hanlon moving to assist.
00:12:54Near the bridge.
00:12:56We're approaching with caution.
00:13:01Anyone else see that?
00:13:04I am cussed!
00:13:05On the bridge!
00:13:06Resistance at the bridge!
00:13:07Two men down!
00:13:08On the bridge!
00:13:11On the bridge!
00:13:12On the bridge!
00:13:12What the fuck is this?
00:13:13What the fuck is this?
00:13:15Shredding.
00:13:18Shredding.
00:13:21One moment, sir.
00:13:25Ship secured, Captain.
00:13:26She's ours.
00:13:27Yeah!
00:13:35It's one price to us.
00:13:38Link us up.
00:13:39We'll do a tandem break.
00:13:40Take a manifest.
00:13:41I'll be up there shortly.
00:13:44Well done, XO.
00:13:51I'm done, XO.
00:14:12I'm done, XO.
00:14:15We're here to take Bersilia.
00:14:17Arms for the war on Perkins, maybe?
00:14:20Doesn't matter.
00:14:21Those boys picked a fight with the wrong oligarchs.
00:14:23Wouldn't it be something if these weapons were legitimate?
00:14:26I mean, I wouldn't put it past the Arkrats to file a false claim.
00:14:29Odds are they're stolen.
00:14:31They're from Hoplon Arms, and if you noticed, somebody had a little bit of fun with the serial members.
00:14:36How do you know it's Hoplon?
00:14:37I almost bought from them when we were outfitting our own marines.
00:14:40Good value for money, but unfortunately the Yankee founder won't have any business with independent cloveness.
00:14:46Your scholar's memory serves us well, Captain.
00:14:48You should have seen him in school.
00:14:49He could recite books from front to back.
00:14:52Captain, Arkwright vessel Peerless Diligence is alongside, requesting clearance to dock.
00:14:58Granted.
00:15:05So he's sticking around?
00:15:08Make my apologies to the commander personally.
00:15:11After that, get all of our men off this ship.
00:15:13I want to be out here as soon as possible.
00:15:44Why did you let Masterson take us to quarters without informing me?
00:15:48It's a standard practice.
00:15:50He and the crew need to learn their jobs and how to work together, and how to work with the
00:15:54ship.
00:15:54Sir, you put this crew together, Abner, and now you're telling us that they still need an education?
00:15:59Tom.
00:16:00That's quite alright, sir.
00:16:02I did the best I could with the budget you gave me.
00:16:05Yes, I personally know several of the officers, but they don't all know each other.
00:16:09And they don't know you.
00:16:11Young greenhorns like Masterson need a chance to make up their own minds under pressure.
00:16:15I understand, but I must insist on being Captain Malure.
00:16:19Of course.
00:16:20But your fire control officer doesn't need your help to do his job.
00:16:24It seemed like the right thing in the moment.
00:16:26Well, that's why your father sent me along.
00:16:28To advise you, sir.
00:16:30And what exactly does that mean in practice?
00:16:32You stopped me from giving Masterson an order.
00:16:35It's a good deal more than mere advice.
00:16:38It was an order you didn't need to give, but don't worry.
00:16:40I'll make sure you both get home quickly and in one piece.
00:16:44It's my job.
00:16:45Your point is taken, Abner, and we'll work on this going forward.
00:16:50You know what's getting to me is that, that voice.
00:16:54I understand that the ship's components came from unusual places, but we can't have that.
00:17:00It's an embarrassment and it's dangerous.
00:17:03Young Royce is weeding her out as we speak.
00:17:05Has he started his qualification course?
00:17:06I want every single one of my officers to be able to stand and watch.
00:17:10If I may make a suggestion, Captain, you might focus on today's victory.
00:17:15Today's prize is worth a fair penny and we bagged it right out of the gate.
00:17:19And it was an excellent learning experience.
00:17:27Oh, that guy. I don't even know why we have to have him with us.
00:17:36It's a fine start.
00:17:43I can hardly believe it.
00:17:45Believe what?
00:17:46What we just did. What you just did.
00:17:48I mean, you have this junk ship and a patched together crew.
00:17:51It was easy pickings and the Marines did most of the work.
00:17:54And you have the greenest Marine outfit available.
00:17:57The approach was perfect right out of the gate.
00:17:59You couldn't have asked for a better setup.
00:18:01And you've apparently got the luck of the Irish.
00:18:03I'm also the youngest and least experienced commanding officer in the entire fleet.
00:18:10Always the bright side with you.
00:18:20What do you suppose Lydia's up to?
00:18:25Counting corpses on the ship that we just captured for her daddy?
00:18:30That's why you're thinking of her, isn't it? That ship.
00:18:33Maybe things would be better if I just went back and married her.
00:18:38Was it prideful of me to reject her father's offer?
00:18:40No.
00:18:41Your dad may have blown the fortune, but your family name still means something.
00:18:46Abner certainly isn't here for the salary.
00:18:48Yeah, we kind of blew all the family favors on this trip, didn't we?
00:18:50Better to exhaust all your options than thrown with the Arkwrights.
00:18:54You marry Lydia and you're going to be dangling on the ends of their strings for the rest of your
00:18:58life.
00:18:58People will die for our little enterprise.
00:19:00Two of our Marines already dead.
00:19:02They all take that risk for citizenship, for a career, for a little opportunity to score some loot.
00:19:09And don't forget us. Here to save the family farm.
00:19:12We're here to prevent you from becoming some sort of mob husband.
00:19:16Learn to deal with Lydia later, and only if you have to.
00:19:21You about ready to open up our orders?
00:19:27You'd have taken on that freighter on your own, right?
00:19:31If Masterson hadn't brought us to quarters?
00:19:32Of course I would have. I told you. It was the perfect setup.
00:19:35You know what? I didn't even need to ask. I could see it in your eyes during the chase.
00:19:39We're all proud of you. Your dad's proud of you.
00:19:42We have to be aggressive out here sometimes, and you were.
00:19:45It was bold the way you handled it.
00:19:48Bold.
00:19:49A little bit more of that, and you will avoid the cold clutches of arranged matrimony.
00:19:55Unless that's...
00:19:56what you want.
00:20:02I'll leave you to it.
00:20:03what I want.
00:20:22If you're hungry.
00:20:28I'll leave you and it'll be a cold drink.
00:20:29I'll leave you and it's a drink.
00:20:30It's a drink.
00:20:30What'd you do?
00:20:31No one wants it.
00:20:33I don't know.
00:21:20Prize money on the first day.
00:21:23You know, I'm going to get my wife something nice when we get that bonus money.
00:21:27Maybe this Deval kid does know a thing or two.
00:21:30Keeps up like this, we're all going home loaded.
00:21:32What about you, Abel?
00:21:33You got a family back home?
00:21:34Not really.
00:21:36Sure you do.
00:21:37Who else would be on that message you keep playing back when you don't think anyone's looking?
00:21:42What are your business, Dimitri?
00:21:43Hey, this ship needs a name, don't you think?
00:21:45She's got a name.
00:21:47Ah, Camaro's not much of a name for a lady.
00:21:49She's Scrap.
00:21:49Scrap?
00:21:50Hell, she's our ticket through Port Shelley.
00:21:52You know, the captain's father, he's the governor there.
00:21:54He decides which folks did enough to get citizenship.
00:21:57They say he's got a reputation for generosity.
00:22:00Yeah.
00:22:01Shut up, Salis.
00:22:03Shelly?
00:22:03Tell her that she looks.
00:22:04Shelly, like Port Shelley.
00:22:06I could get behind that.
00:22:08Wait, we're just going to call it Shelly?
00:22:09I didn't know what we were going to get into when I signed on, but she's proven herself now.
00:22:13So what if her bits have mileage?
00:22:15They're well loved.
00:22:16They work.
00:22:17So far.
00:22:18I'm serious.
00:22:19We're really just going to call it Shelly?
00:22:21I'm serious, too.
00:22:22Didn't you hear the word out of the yards?
00:22:24What?
00:22:24Yeah, it's a captured ship repaired with pieces from all kinds of other ships.
00:22:28Not captured, salvaged.
00:22:30Two ships.
00:22:31They get different halves blown off in battle.
00:22:33All hands lost.
00:22:34And the Admiral Lee decides to make the best of it by welding the two ends together.
00:22:38Why do you think she's the only hybrid class in the fleet?
00:22:41Ships like this get sold at cheap foreign navies, not commissioned as vessels of the state.
00:22:48So, you're saying that we're sailing a pair of coffins?
00:22:52I guess so.
00:22:52I thought I smelled something.
00:22:54You're full of crap, Solace.
00:22:55Yeah, maybe that's it.
00:22:56Hate to burst your dreams of becoming respectable citizens, but you can check it all out for
00:23:00yourselves when we put in.
00:23:02It's incontrovertible.
00:23:04Incontro...
00:23:06Where do you get off?
00:23:07You think you're so smart, but you're just like the rest of us.
00:23:10Lonely peons.
00:23:11That's not what I meant.
00:23:12It is a little obnoxious.
00:23:13Just speak at a level we can all appreciate.
00:23:15Whatever.
00:23:16I fooled.
00:23:18Filistines.
00:23:19That's it.
00:23:20I've had it.
00:23:20Whoa, hey, it's not worth it.
00:23:22It's all right, man.
00:23:23Take it easy.
00:23:24Attention on deck!
00:23:30What's all this about?
00:23:36Nothing, sir.
00:23:39Come with me, Solace.
00:23:41Sir, I get it.
00:23:42You're being detached from gunnery.
00:23:43I need new assistance.
00:23:45Mr. Severin's already done with the paperwork.
00:23:48Come on.
00:23:49Or is it a cash bandage that leads to gutted markets, purchase mandates, force loans, and
00:23:54economic collapse?
00:23:55We'll hear from them after this.
00:24:00Okay, first off, it's important you understand something that your predecessor didn't.
00:24:07What's that?
00:24:10You know nothing.
00:24:14I can't waste time breaking you of your assumptions.
00:24:17Aggregate displacement confounds the best of minds.
00:24:20Aggregate displacement?
00:24:22You mean the static shift drive?
00:24:24Is that what I'll be working on?
00:24:25That's right.
00:24:29I never thought I'd work with an actual warp drive.
00:24:32Don't use a W-word.
00:24:34We'll just laugh at you.
00:24:36Remember the first lesson?
00:24:37You know nothing.
00:24:39Right.
00:24:39You know, there's crazy rumors about SSDs.
00:24:42I always wondered what happens if something goes wrong during a transit.
00:24:48Best case?
00:24:49We end up, of course, a bit due to a misdecimal point or something.
00:24:54Worst case?
00:24:55Our existences explode across 16 dimensions.
00:24:59Really?
00:25:01No.
00:25:06Go on.
00:25:26Enough breadboards in there to make the whole crew sandwiches.
00:25:30Open face.
00:25:31You're a dork.
00:25:34Sir.
00:25:36Only a dork would enjoy this.
00:25:39I can't pretend I'm not interested.
00:25:42Then perhaps I've chosen well.
00:25:44Here.
00:25:46Get in there and remove the condensation from between the components.
00:25:50Be careful.
00:25:52The boards don't like to be bumped.
00:25:57Okay.
00:25:58So, aggregate displacement.
00:26:00Simply put, it's a theory of quantum science that allows the ship to move from one point
00:26:05in the universe to another.
00:26:06Given enough power and the right computations, it can instantaneously move you to any point
00:26:11in the universe.
00:26:13Any point?
00:26:14Any.
00:26:15Like you've been a point billions of light years away, where no one else has ever been.
00:26:20Sure.
00:26:20The more power you can squeeze through the tube without frying it, the farther you can go.
00:26:25Understand, though.
00:26:26It takes a fair bit just to hop a couple of light years.
00:26:29The whole process is extraordinarily sensitive.
00:26:32How's that work?
00:26:34You know those fundamental horrors of the universe that can drive a man mad if he learns them?
00:26:41It's one of those.
00:26:50I can't believe I'm working in here.
00:26:53I've heard people talk about guys like you like your royalty.
00:26:56Nah.
00:26:57We're just guys.
00:27:02Sir.
00:27:06Thanks.
00:27:07I can't remember the last time someone really took a chance on me.
00:27:11You won't regret it.
00:27:13No sweat.
00:27:15Anyway, for right now, we're just doing routine maintenance.
00:27:18We have to do this before every halt.
00:27:20We're leaving the system.
00:27:22Captain just told me to do my round.
00:27:24That usually means travel.
00:27:27Gentlemen, we are no longer hunting down blacklist pirate ships to settle grudges.
00:27:31We can take prizes of opportunity, but our goal in mind is one ship.
00:27:35We are not part of an official fleet structure, but we are expected to cooperate with other
00:27:41ships that have the same objective in mind, allied or otherwise.
00:27:44What kind of ship are we chasing?
00:27:46We don't know.
00:27:49One of our allies was able to take this picture.
00:27:54Intelligence calls her the white ship.
00:27:56She appears and attacks ships seemingly at random.
00:28:01She bears no identifying markings other than her distinctive coat of white paint.
00:28:06Captain, may I ask who gave us this information?
00:28:09I'm not at liberty to be specific about the source.
00:28:12Of course not.
00:28:13Watch your tongue.
00:28:13It's all right.
00:28:15Gary, speak your mind.
00:28:18Captain, our allies can't even take a decent picture of what killed them.
00:28:23And if this massive ship even exists, our allies are probably hoping that either we're
00:28:29more competent than they are, or that we're better at absorbing cannon fire.
00:28:33Have some decency, Gary.
00:28:34Oh, to hell with decency.
00:28:37The only reason we'd all cooperate is that we each expect each other to lie down and die
00:28:40for our own success.
00:28:42Gary.
00:28:42I guarantee you they're thinking exactly the same thing.
00:28:45The chairman himself has issued these orders.
00:28:50Every able vessel is being called out to join in this hunt.
00:28:54Several of our courier ships have already been destroyed.
00:28:59This is big.
00:29:00It strikes at the very heart of our national industry.
00:29:04Without those ships, we could not provide the services that more or less fund our country.
00:29:09There's far more at stake here than the interest of whatever nation first called us into this.
00:29:14All the more reason to keep what Gary is saying in mind.
00:29:19Look, some of our friends may not necessarily have our best interests in mind.
00:29:26Still, we have as good a shot as anyone at finding the Spite Ship.
00:29:31If we play our cards right.
00:29:34Thank you, Abner.
00:29:36And there's something else.
00:29:39Chairman Hauser has offered up a remarkable sum for the capture of this ship.
00:29:47He's marked half his receipts from last quarter.
00:29:50And he's leaning on the Admiralty.
00:29:53To match it.
00:29:59Is that from his grosser net?
00:30:02Gross.
00:30:05Last quarter was quite kind to him from the numbers that I've seen.
00:30:09Now, all we have to do is make sure that we're part of the group that finishes her off.
00:30:14Well, I think we're all with you, Captain.
00:30:16So, uh, where do we start?
00:30:21We'll move out system and hover it at Cretchen Point.
00:30:24From there, we'll make transition to...
00:30:33Here.
00:30:35The Prentiss system.
00:30:37Right at the edge of the Deccan Abyss.
00:30:41Pretty far out.
00:30:43It's about the most we can do when we're hot.
00:30:45Take a couple days charging before we can come back.
00:30:48And awfully close to Yankee territory.
00:30:50Everything out here is close to Yankee territory.
00:30:58Why this area, Captain?
00:31:00It's awful sparse traffic out there and a long way from home.
00:31:05It's unlikely we'll run into anything, even other hunters.
00:31:09A lot of the attacks have taken place at the edge of the Deccan.
00:31:12I'm playing a hunch that they're making their way around the brim.
00:31:16We can resupply it to Hiram, and then funnel it through Satan's Sheet's Fell, the Oracle to station there.
00:31:22And now what?
00:31:24More like the only show in town.
00:31:26There'll be somebody to buy from there.
00:31:27There'll be somebody to buy from there.
00:31:29Okay then.
00:31:30I expect all of you to carry out your duties as usual, and to keep unnecessary information from the crew.
00:31:36Set mod operators will have elevated privileges.
00:31:40Any questions?
00:31:44You may return to your duties.
00:32:18Something on your mind, Abner?
00:32:20I'm just curious about this hunch.
00:32:23You really think they're just making a clockwise tour of the Deccan's Edge?
00:32:26I said it was a hunch.
00:32:33You already knew what our orders were.
00:32:36Not the usual generalities.
00:32:39Someone gave you specifics.
00:32:41The Prentiss is an educated, I guess.
00:32:47There's been some unusual activity reported there the last few days.
00:32:52And do you think it's really this white ship?
00:32:56Well?
00:32:59It's a long way to go in a hunch.
00:33:02I admire your gumption, Captain.
00:33:35Elm, full stop and hover.
00:33:37Aye, sir.
00:33:38Full stop and hover.
00:33:45All stop, Captain.
00:33:46Trimming to hover.
00:33:52Trimming complete.
00:33:53Ship is hovering.
00:33:55Mr. Hess, we are ready to commence the sequence.
00:33:59Commencing sequence.
00:34:0060 seconds on my mark.
00:34:03Three, two, one, mark.
00:34:07Comms?
00:34:08Heads are rigged in and stowed.
00:34:10LSO?
00:34:11Stable.
00:34:12Fire control?
00:34:13Powered down.
00:34:14All guns in locked position.
00:34:15Maneuvering.
00:34:16SSD at standby.
00:34:18Reactor's at 100%.
00:34:19All redundant systems are suspended.
00:34:22Mr. Tumai, power the SSD.
00:34:24Power SSDI, sir.
00:34:27Operator, opener up steady.
00:34:34Steady increase.
00:34:36Normal continuum extraction, bolt attenuating.
00:34:39Coolant?
00:34:39Natural circulation, nominal flow.
00:34:42Why does everyone look so nervous?
00:34:45RSSD was only given short tests before recristened.
00:34:52Are you nervous?
00:34:56Yup.
00:34:585
00:34:5934
00:35:0033
00:35:0132
00:35:0231
00:35:0330
00:35:0429
00:35:0528
00:35:0627
00:35:0726
00:35:0825
00:35:0924
00:35:1023
00:35:1122
00:35:1221
00:35:1420
00:35:1419
00:35:1518
00:35:1617
00:35:1717
00:35:1818
00:35:2014, 13, 12, 11, 10.
00:35:25That's to full open.
00:35:276, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
00:35:34Execute.
00:35:42This is D is powering down.
00:35:45All systems nominal.
00:35:47Reactor 75%.
00:35:48Aye, sir.
00:35:49Reactor 75%.
00:35:53What went wrong?
00:35:57Nothing went wrong.
00:35:58We're here.
00:35:59Then that's it?
00:36:00That's it.
00:36:07That's bizarre.
00:36:09You taste copper?
00:36:10Yeah.
00:36:11Thought I was bleeding.
00:36:12Happens to about 10% of people.
00:36:14It won't hurt you.
00:36:17Is it time for lunch yet?
00:36:18I'm starving like an artist.
00:36:22You're a dork, sir.
00:36:25190 million miles out of Hiram.
00:36:27Solid hover.
00:36:29Origin point marked.
00:36:31All compartment secure from transition sequence.
00:36:34No errors.
00:36:40No errors.
00:36:42I did her all right after all.
00:36:45Tom.
00:36:46Go ahead and take the comm.
00:36:48Plot of course for mid-system.
00:36:50Let's get hunting.
00:36:52Aye, aye, Captain.
00:36:54Helm.
00:36:54Come to course 150 by 041.
00:36:58Roll angle 12 degrees.
00:37:00Burn ahead one half and hold six hours.
00:37:03Aye, sir.
00:37:04Course 150 by 041.
00:37:06Roll angle to 12 degrees.
00:37:08Burn one half for six hours.
00:37:11Never been this far from home.
00:37:15Homesick?
00:37:15No.
00:37:18No.
00:37:18No.
00:37:59Did you do DW in your last assignment?
00:38:01Just as an assistant, but yeah.
00:38:04And their setup was crap.
00:38:06The captain only got five keys from the Admiralty, so they had me trying to hack one ship after the
00:38:11other.
00:38:12In the end, we would always just blow down the doors.
00:38:14That's one thing I will give to our intrepid captain.
00:38:17He didn't skimp on that keyring.
00:38:20Yeah, how is he supposed to have all this stuff?
00:38:22I mean, isn't he supposed to be all low on cash?
00:38:25You shouldn't be talking about that.
00:38:26Oh, come on, Kai. You've heard the rumors.
00:38:28I mean, he went to one of the top schools, was in one of those clubs.
00:38:33Now that's enough.
00:38:34It's obvious he's in bed with high government.
00:38:36His surname should have tipped you off on that.
00:38:38There's no question that I.O.'s involved.
00:38:40Why would the intelligence office have anything to do with this?
00:38:43Pfft. Beats me.
00:38:44But who else has the resources to supply something like this?
00:38:48I mean, did you see those unmarked ordnance crates that we took on a few days ago?
00:38:51I bet you those are some of those new Molden rounds.
00:38:53Who told you all this?
00:38:54How about that big red button up at fire control?
00:38:56Yeah, what is that thing?
00:38:58Testudo.
00:38:59Tortoise?
00:39:00Tortoise shell.
00:39:01The outer shakecoat layer of our armor is nothing unusual for a warship.
00:39:05But they discovered a while ago that if you run a heavy current through it in these alternating grid patterns,
00:39:11it hardens to something like 20 times its usual strength.
00:39:17That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.
00:39:20You run current through any metal and all it does is heat up.
00:39:22It actually weakens it.
00:39:24Not to mention the scientific fact that all semiconducting materials like our outer armor actively resist current.
00:39:30Not this semiconducting material.
00:39:32If you don't know how it works, just say so.
00:39:35Don't try and make it up.
00:39:36What isn't the standard across all the fleet?
00:39:39Because while it sounds great in theory, in practice the TS burns through so much power our reactors can never
00:39:44hold it constant.
00:39:46Moreover, the alternating grid phases have this unexplained habit of trying to flow back into the transformers.
00:39:51The systems burn themselves out within a few seconds and take everything that was connected to them.
00:39:59That's crazy. Why would anyone want that?
00:40:02Search me.
00:40:03Who knows what evil lurks in the mind of inbred aristocrats?
00:40:07Now that is enough.
00:40:09You stop with all this gossip right now.
00:40:11Quite frankly, it's unbecoming of officers.
00:40:14Besides, don't you have something better to do?
00:40:16I do now if that's going to be your attitude.
00:40:19Wipe the cereal off your face and get out of here.
00:40:21No more of that talk.
00:40:23I mean it.
00:40:25And that's a risky gamble there, Pat.
00:40:27If he can hide the cannon before the rep gets up, he'll be in the lead.
00:40:30Red, what do you think of this move by Pinkerton?
00:40:32It's a failure of diplomacy, Pat.
00:40:34This may be a case of winning the battle and losing the war.
00:40:37This show sucks.
00:40:39What are you, five?
00:40:40Shut up.
00:40:41Grown-ups are trying to watch.
00:40:42At least it's new.
00:40:43Who's broadcasting this?
00:40:45Saint-Nay sheet.
00:40:46I think they imported it from Puerto Montt.
00:40:49Quit playing with your hair.
00:40:50We'll hold you down again and shave the rest off.
00:40:52What is this?
00:40:54Garbage.
00:40:55How do you have any brain cells left you like?
00:40:57I keep spares and tiny vials rolled up with my socks.
00:41:00But I'm afraid we'll have to change stuff here.
00:41:03As has been a result in racial waste.
00:41:05We have the sound fact...
00:41:07Where do they dig up these Marines anyway?
00:41:09Backside is somewhere.
00:41:11Well, how come they don't talk to us?
00:41:12Why?
00:41:13Would you want them to?
00:41:14I mean, we do share a ship with them.
00:41:16So?
00:41:17They're weirdos.
00:41:18Just leave them be.
00:41:20That's enough to try to do your job and keep your sanity out here without some lunatics trying
00:41:25to raise the dead next door.
00:41:26They aren't summoning the dead.
00:41:28They're sending prayers to the shah.
00:41:29Who are they?
00:41:30And what's a shah?
00:41:31A male peacock.
00:41:33He's their king, basically.
00:41:35Way back when, their Irish leaders started co-opting bits of Persian and Viking culture.
00:41:39Then he convinced them that all of their prayers flowed through him to their respective gods.
00:41:44It's a good thing they can shoot straight since they think of pretzels.
00:41:48It sounds like devil worship to me.
00:41:50Praying to some crazy possessed man.
00:41:53Superstitious now?
00:41:54Gosh, sailor.
00:41:55Way to beat the stereotype.
00:41:57You know.
00:41:58I've seen that medal you have.
00:42:00I mean, you pull it out when you don't think anyone's looking, but I've seen you staring
00:42:03at that thing.
00:42:05Almost as if you were praying to it.
00:42:06It's not religious, you moron.
00:42:09It's just something my mother gave me.
00:42:10Oh, good for you.
00:42:12Go back to your books, small boy.
00:42:14What are you looking forward to?
00:42:16My son's next birthday.
00:42:17I thought of my home chemistry set.
00:42:19Well, we'll be having our panel analyze that shortly.
00:42:22They can't really be trying to summon demons or something, can they?
00:42:25Who knows?
00:42:27Why don't you go ask him a minute?
00:42:29See what happens.
00:42:30I ain't talking to no demon razors.
00:42:32...from the Elgin Foundation for preserving arts and passionable food products.
00:42:36And in part by donations from viewers like you.
00:42:39This show sucks.
00:42:42I don't know what it was, but it was a big deal.
00:42:45They just flew as if they were expecting us to be able to shoot.
00:42:50I don't know what we were expecting, but they took us to be able to shoot.
00:42:52Got something?
00:42:54Yeah, I think so.
00:42:55It's unofficial chatter.
00:42:57Audio only, but it caught our attention.
00:43:03It's gone, sir.
00:43:14What do you think?
00:43:16I think we should tell the captain.
00:43:19Good man.
00:43:23She's here, gentlemen.
00:43:25Nursing wounds out beyond the edge of the system.
00:43:28We intercepted comm traffic that indicates a very large ship of unknown class.
00:43:33Attacked a convoy on its way out of the system.
00:43:36Bad luck for them.
00:43:37The convoy came with a major escort complement.
00:43:39Those warships carved her up pretty badly, but they chose not to pursue.
00:43:46She finally walked into a fight she wasn't prepared for.
00:43:53We'll resupply and then head out into the empty on her suspected tangent.
00:43:56We'll sweep outward, zigzagging on all axes.
00:44:00Active sweeps at high speed, and we take this one aggressively.
00:44:03Just like the gunrunner.
00:44:05It's a good plan.
00:44:07Looks like your hunch is paying off.
00:44:12Dismissed.
00:44:22Dismissed.
00:44:24Dismissed.
00:44:25Dismissed.
00:44:29Dismissed.
00:44:43After so many years of disappointment, I must say that the notion of feeling genuine pride
00:44:50for another family member is, well, alluring.
00:44:56I won't pretend that I'm exactly holding my breath, understand?
00:45:00But it feels good to be mildly hopeful for once.
00:45:04You are making the major first step.
00:45:09Something that your parents, neither one of them, could ever bother you.
00:45:13Hey.
00:45:15You doing a dick in five minutes?
00:45:17I know.
00:45:19Mother.
00:45:21How old do I look to you?
00:45:23Pawn. Grandparent.
00:45:27Go rent.
00:45:31It's okay.
00:45:32No one's going to judge.
00:45:38The closest we've been able to figure, the ship is unfeasibly accurate at range, or else
00:45:44has some way of closing distance fast.
00:45:47We're having a hard time separating the myth from the fact.
00:45:51Whatever it is the white ship is doing, we're pretty sure it happens fast.
00:45:56Some of the boxes we found haven't even logged cries for help.
00:46:01I don't envy it, and I don't think your dad should have encouraged this excursion.
00:46:06Come in.
00:46:12Any word from home?
00:46:16The port authorities have made it a passenger fee for the water.
00:46:191,200 in Rhodesian pounds.
00:46:20I'll bet.
00:46:21Go ahead and give it to them.
00:46:23That will take us close to reserve.
00:46:25With the prize money coming in, we should be all right.
00:46:29By the way, Abner, I've been going over the crew bios again.
00:46:33Do you have a question about one of them?
00:46:35You call Sabrin Evacatus.
00:46:38Now, my Latin's a bit rusty.
00:46:41Which of the two empires does he hail from?
00:46:44I found him a while back doing mercenary work, and he mentioned he did two tours on a Martellan
00:46:49vessel.
00:46:50Are you worried about his credentials or his loyalty?
00:46:53I'd like to know how and why he left.
00:46:56Ask him.
00:46:57I didn't.
00:46:58He served with me on two ships now, and always with confidence and devotion.
00:47:04You know, if you had any doubts, you should have said something before we left port.
00:47:07I don't have doubts.
00:47:08It's just...
00:47:11Look at who we're docked with.
00:47:20Ah.
00:47:22I'm just a bit worried that if they see him, they might try and take him back.
00:47:28I had hoped that their war wouldn't have reached this close to us, though.
00:47:31Well, for what it's worth, I can say with confidence that Sabrin seems to have lost faith in his
00:47:36homeland during his second tour.
00:47:39But, he didn't deserve to go rogue.
00:47:42He's not a fugitive.
00:47:43He's just a bit bitter, I think.
00:47:46He'll have no trouble from the empires.
00:47:49Either one of them.
00:47:50Thank God for that.
00:48:1117-hour burn starting now.
00:48:14Cease burn at 2,600 hours.
00:48:16Helm, roll us left to 315, maintain vertical.
00:48:20Rolling left to 315, maintaining vertical.
00:48:24Set mod con, report all contacts.
00:48:27Sparse traffic to stern.
00:48:29All bearings shifting to port.
00:48:30Two commercial vessels, seven private.
00:48:32All of the tangents empty.
00:48:47It's not just about the cash.
00:48:48It's a whole issue with aristocracy.
00:48:50The Deval family may have helped found the nation, but that hasn't kept them from falling out of favor.
00:48:55They have permanent governorship over Port Shelley, but Granddad managed to screw that one up, too.
00:49:00This whole ship is just Daddy's last-ditch effort to regain relevance.
00:49:05What happens if he fails?
00:49:08Dissolution of the family property, basically handing over the family name to someone else in lieu of payment,
00:49:13and I've even heard talk of an arranged marriage to one of the Art Wright daughters.
00:49:18Could you imagine?
00:49:19What's this?
00:49:20Just a friendly conversation.
00:49:22Right.
00:49:23Because who doesn't enjoy gibbering with their girlfriend between classes?
00:49:26All right, all right.
00:49:28But you have to admit that he is a little off.
00:49:32I mean, he acts like a scared ensign.
00:49:33Mr. Royce, I have tolerated your attitude to this point.
00:49:36But you're testing the limits of my patience.
00:49:38Oh, come on.
00:49:40He's got us chasing phantom shits out here in the empty.
00:49:43He's holed up in his cabin.
00:49:44I mean, he's probably going pants-crapping insane just from the pressure of it all.
00:49:49You want to repeat that?
00:49:53No, really.
00:49:55I want to hear an in-depth assessment from the only actual ensign on board.
00:49:59And how far along are you with your qualification courses again?
00:50:03Clear off!
00:50:05Before I skin you.
00:50:14I love the children.
00:50:16Look.
00:50:18I know you keep him on the straight and narrow as far as performing his job.
00:50:22But you have to make sure he shows more respect for his captain.
00:50:26No matter what your personal issues may be with the man.
00:50:29Barely.
00:50:32Where'd you find him, anyway?
00:50:34Loafing around the house.
00:50:36But at least my brother said the reason.
00:50:44Hey, Abel.
00:50:45You awake?
00:50:48Yeah.
00:50:50Why'd you come out here?
00:50:54His girlfriend told him to.
00:50:56Okay.
00:50:58I'm sure she's worth it.
00:51:00Why do you care?
00:51:01I can't resist a mystery.
00:51:06She's my grand-aunt.
00:51:08I knew it.
00:51:10Did she knit you a sweater for the trip?
00:51:13Offer to come along or rock you to sleep?
00:51:15You'd have to salute her if she did.
00:51:19Astro Navy.
00:51:21Wait.
00:51:21Wait.
00:51:22Wait.
00:51:22Astro Navy.
00:51:23An officer.
00:51:25She commanded six lady ships before she retired.
00:51:28Mustang.
00:51:29Worked her way up from the very bottom.
00:51:32Wow.
00:51:34I'm impressed.
00:51:37You know, she has these aspirations for me.
00:51:42And she wants me off those ghetto islands back home.
00:51:45Proper citizenship wouldn't be bad either.
00:51:49I was thinking the same thing when Gladys was born.
00:51:53I want to make enough to, uh, get her a good education.
00:51:58You know she's going to make it through poor Shelly someday.
00:52:00Her own goals is lofty.
00:52:02Have some kids of your own?
00:52:03You'll make even higher ones.
00:52:04I'm okay with what I have.
00:52:06Yeah, tough life.
00:52:07Banging on one cylinder.
00:52:09Shut up, Dimitri.
00:52:13So, you don't have any kids then, maybe?
00:52:16No.
00:52:27What do you think we're doing out here anyway?
00:52:30Out in the black.
00:52:32Why?
00:52:34You worried or something?
00:52:35No.
00:52:39Well, yeah, maybe a little.
00:52:43There's nothing to worry about.
00:52:45Just empty space.
00:52:47But that's just it.
00:52:48I mean, anything could be out here.
00:52:57There's nothing out here.
00:53:06The men are starting to wonder what we're doing out here.
00:53:09I'm beginning to wonder that myself.
00:53:11Well, a little reflection's good for you, Captain.
00:53:13But I hesitate to turn back as well.
00:53:17The Admiralty will be expecting to hear back from us in a couple of days.
00:53:20Don't make that the decision point, though.
00:53:22With ships this far out, those deadlines are pretty flexible.
00:53:25Well, we have been out here for some time, and at some point we're going to have to turn back.
00:53:30It's up to you when.
00:53:34But to turn back empty-handed...
00:53:36That doesn't mean that we're giving up.
00:53:38We could still replenish and resume the hunt.
00:53:41Not if somebody finds her first.
00:53:43We might return home and find out that there's nothing left, that it's all done.
00:53:49There's nothing left to resume.
00:53:50Don't be like that, Marcus.
00:53:52That's the dirty little secret here.
00:53:54It was never going to be enough to hunt down pirates and reflect bounties without the white ship Dad and
00:53:58I are finished.
00:54:00The long line of the balls ever since Uriah will just be snuffed out.
00:54:05He founded a country where the most successful man rules, gives the chairmanship to his son, and the idiot loses
00:54:12it immediately.
00:54:14And then the rest of us have just been spiraling downward since.
00:54:17Technically, Uriah founded a communications company.
00:54:20Just happened to grow rich enough that it was able to be nationalized.
00:54:24Thank you, Abner.
00:54:25I'm well aware of my family history.
00:54:27I heard it every day while I was in school.
00:54:30Your family screws up so bad that we're going to give them the one job that nobody can actually lose.
00:54:37Port Shelley.
00:54:39What happened to you in school is irrelevant.
00:54:42You're here now.
00:54:43You're the commander.
00:54:44Ander, teenage bullies have no bearing on your responsibility to your crew or to your family.
00:54:49Do not lecture me, Abner.
00:54:51My experience has everything to do with who I am.
00:54:54Oh, no, no, no.
00:54:56We're not going to do the self-pitying, woe is me.
00:54:58I am not self-pitying.
00:55:00Oh, yes you are.
00:55:01Did you think this was going to be easy?
00:55:04This is the real world of combat, war, and death.
00:55:08Thank whatever it is that you pray to that you haven't directly seen the death yet.
00:55:12Abner, you're leading a crew of men, and they need a man to lead them.
00:55:17Are you just going to mope around because your first stab at a tough mission is coming up empty?
00:55:24Grow up, Marcus.
00:55:27Right now.
00:55:421,700 hours cruising as before.
00:55:451,700 hours cruising as before, so noted.
00:55:50Set, mod, con.
00:55:52Report all contacts.
00:55:56No contacts, sir.
00:55:57All scopes clear.
00:56:00What's our heading?
00:56:021,700 by 385.
00:56:06We're in to full stop, steer to 0,1,0, and resume speed.
00:56:12Full stop, steer 0,1,0, and resume speed.
00:56:15Aye, sir.
00:56:18Gary, take the con.
00:56:311,700, in the frame.
00:56:35Go ahead.
00:56:37You were?
00:56:40Go say go, go toò.
00:56:40Homelessorge, Spencer.
00:56:40Go say go, go, go camera.
00:56:41Oh, do you see what you're playing?
00:56:41On the way, yes.
00:56:42Good.
00:56:53No line.
00:57:23We are really out there now.
00:57:25Back to the onboard library.
00:57:28But wait.
00:57:31Just a glitch.
00:57:33Ghost in the machine.
00:57:35Do we really have to bring ghosts into this?
00:57:38You don't have to.
00:57:40I just need to...
00:57:40Then don't.
00:57:41Okay?
00:57:42Just...
00:57:42Just...
00:57:45Just don't.
00:57:53Just don't.
00:58:47I don't believe it.
00:58:50Captain to Setmod.
00:58:51Captain to Setmod.
00:58:58I don't believe it.
00:59:01What is she doing?
00:59:03She's not doing anything.
00:59:05Emissions, broadcasts...
00:59:06None.
00:59:08Either she's got fantastic shielding or her reactor's cold.
00:59:12Dead in the water?
00:59:13No.
00:59:14She'd be drifting if there was a sudden power loss.
00:59:17Maybe she hopped and we just happened on her before she could get up and running?
00:59:21She'd still be something.
00:59:23It has to be the white ship.
00:59:24I mean, look at the size of her.
00:59:26On this part of the void, there can't be more than a couple of ships that big running around.
00:59:31Foley, what is she?
00:59:33I don't know, Captain.
00:59:36The computer's calling it a civilian ontous cruiser, but the silhouette's all wrong.
00:59:41Whatever this is...
00:59:43I don't think it's in our databases.
00:59:45It's her.
00:59:46It's gotta be.
00:59:49Captain?
00:59:50Captain?
01:00:01Come on, Marcus.
01:00:02Let's go get her.
01:00:04Tom, so...
01:00:04Enough with the formalities, Marcus.
01:00:06This is me that you're talking to, and this is exactly what we've been working towards.
01:00:14Unless it's a trap.
01:00:16Unless it's a trap for who, exactly?
01:00:19Look, if she starts twitching when we get close, we can easily pull away with just scratches, Marcus.
01:00:27We ignore this, and we're missing the opportunity of a lifetime.
01:00:43Okay.
01:00:45We'll get in closer and evaluate her condition.
01:00:47Yes, sir.
01:00:52We're going in to get her.
01:00:54I have the con.
01:00:55Roll starboard 10 degrees.
01:00:58Starting at 49.
01:01:0010 tips to port by the bow.
01:01:02Aye, sir.
01:01:02Burn ahead one quarter.
01:01:0460 seconds.
01:01:05I have the con.
01:01:06Threat board on 2.
01:01:09Okay.
01:01:21Captain.
01:01:25340 by 355 relative.
01:01:29Help adjust our approach.
01:01:31Bring us up on our beam.
01:01:33Adjusting.
01:01:34Aye, sir.
01:01:36Captain.
01:01:40Yes.
01:01:42May I recommend we hail them?
01:01:45No.
01:01:46Radio silence for the time being.
01:01:51Shall we go to quarters?
01:01:57Go to quarters.
01:01:57Go to quarters.
01:01:59General quarters.
01:02:00General quarters.
01:02:01All hands to battle stations.
01:02:16Ship is at quarters.
01:02:21Chief, bring up the external on 3.
01:02:24Extreme telephoto.
01:02:27Light her up.
01:02:29Light her up.
01:02:29Light her up.
01:02:33Closer.
01:02:37Closer.
01:02:49She's huge.
01:02:51Setmob, do you have a classification on the target?
01:02:54The computer's still stumbling on it.
01:02:58Now it says it could be a McLaren Gray ship.
01:03:01Isn't it?
01:03:02No chance, Captain.
01:03:04Hell I'm back one quarter.
01:03:05Let's not get too close yet.
01:03:11She looks derelict.
01:03:14Not necessarily.
01:03:16Look at that darkening aft.
01:03:18She's taken a couple serious hits.
01:03:20That could be a breach.
01:03:22The arrow lock looks warped on this side.
01:03:25We'd have to approach from the other,
01:03:27where she could have taken less damage.
01:03:28Oh, God.
01:03:40I can't get too close after you.
01:03:42I can't get to.
01:03:42I don't.
01:03:43Don't.
01:03:46I don't.
01:03:48I can't.
01:03:50I can't.
01:03:52I can't.
01:03:54I don't.
01:04:16Gary?
01:04:19Some variant on the Viper 3 mount.
01:04:22They're very accurate, but the magazines are kept inside the hull
01:04:25and the barrels are to be rotated perpendicular to the spine
01:04:28to line up the feed slots between every shot.
01:04:31Not very good at close quarters.
01:04:33Have the crews of Hydra 1 and Quad Mount load specials.
01:04:41Aye, sir.
01:04:44Quad Mount and Hydra 1.
01:04:45All right.
01:04:46Load the specials.
01:04:47Helm, bring us alongside her.
01:04:50We'll prepare a boarding action.
01:04:52Bring us alongside.
01:04:53Aye, sir.
01:05:15Closing at 10 feet per second.
01:05:17Coming about.
01:05:22Guns at the ready.
01:05:23Ready.
01:05:26Contact 1,000 yards in closing.
01:05:29Devil's distance, Captain.
01:05:31If they were going to give us any trouble,
01:05:33we would have done it by now.
01:05:35Does anybody see any white paint?
01:05:42Maybe they repainted.
01:05:47Let's get a close-up of the bow.
01:05:53That's not recent.
01:05:56That's old damage.
01:05:58What's it say?
01:06:03Volturine?
01:06:06That's not right.
01:06:08This isn't right.
01:06:10Go white again.
01:06:15Cheap!
01:06:16Lost the input signal, sir.
01:06:17Recycling it again.
01:06:20Whoa.
01:06:21Hey.
01:06:22Hello?
01:06:25Oh, jeep.
01:06:26What's going on?
01:06:27Sir?
01:06:28Cheap, what's going on?
01:06:29Guidance thruster's not responding.
01:06:31What?
01:06:31I have no control.
01:06:48What?
01:06:49Nothing's working.
01:06:50Nothing's working.
01:06:51Did they infiltrate us?
01:06:52They can't have.
01:06:53There was no signal.
01:06:54No transmission.
01:06:56Junkers are all reporting.
01:06:57Their controls won't respond.
01:07:03These things are correct.
01:07:06Boys, you have to clean them out.
01:07:07I don't.
01:07:08I'm trying, Captain.
01:07:09Not good enough to make it happen.
01:07:11Marcus.
01:07:11I can't.
01:07:12You have to.
01:07:13Marcus.
01:07:14Marcus.
01:07:20All I have is to have fun.
01:07:22I have fun.
01:07:23I have no control.
01:07:25Gary?
01:07:26Gary?
01:07:27Do it.
01:07:42We're rolling to port.
01:07:44Their star control's back online.
01:07:46Chuck must have tripped something.
01:07:48I'll have fun.
01:07:49Helm still isn't answering, sir.
01:07:51Hydra Twin Mount out of action.
01:07:53Quad Mount also out of action.
01:07:54Hydra One.
01:07:55She's not responding to her target system damage.
01:07:57Hydra with any working gun that we have,
01:07:59pass me through the crew of Hydra One.
01:08:01Hey, catch him in.
01:08:02Cobra and Hydra Two rotate 090 relative
01:08:04and bottom out.
01:08:05We'll hit her as we come around.
01:08:08Gary, I'm going to get the crew of Hydra One
01:08:09to make a manual shot.
01:08:11Aye, Captain.
01:08:11Hydra Two and Cobra,
01:08:13target the damage section on her star
01:08:14as we come around.
01:08:15Royce, can we do anything about our targeting system?
01:08:17I can't get any readings.
01:08:18It's like there's nothing there to smoke.
01:08:19Hit the button again.
01:08:21Now!
01:08:33Fight the two coming around?
01:08:38Firing!
01:08:40We missed!
01:08:42Cobra, you're up!
01:08:43Yes, sir.
01:08:45Royce, hold that button down.
01:08:47Hold it down, I said!
01:08:50I don't want to turn to fire!
01:09:03Sir, I've got burnouts all across the board.
01:09:06Somebody's trying too much power.
01:09:07Snake, you're right.
01:09:08Reactions to one-fifth.
01:09:09Call the staff.
01:09:10Now!
01:09:14Steady, man.
01:09:15We got this.
01:09:32Fire!
01:09:33Can't be a hole right through her!
01:09:38I have to what?
01:09:40Fire!
01:09:41Fire!
01:09:45Fire!
01:09:46Fire!
01:09:47Fire!
01:09:48Fire!
01:09:49Fire!
01:09:51Fire!
01:10:11Fire!
01:10:13Fire!
01:10:14Fire!
01:10:14Fire!
01:10:15Fire!
01:10:15Fire!
01:10:20Khan, target is broken into two pieces. Both are drifting away from us.
01:10:30Reactor status.
01:10:33Reactors are holding stable.
01:10:35We're alright. We're okay.
01:10:39Alive at any rate. Check for damage.
01:10:41Hi sir.
01:10:44Looks like the fat lady called it a day.
01:10:48Sure talk status.
01:10:54Are you alright captain?
01:10:57Can you receive a damage report?
01:10:59Kill the alarm.
01:11:02All compartments. Report damage to LSO.
01:11:09We shouldn't have been able to survive that.
01:11:11No, we shouldn't. It was Royce on the MFC.
01:11:16Without the Testudo, we'd have had hull breaches with the first hits.
01:11:22His presence of mind just saved all our lives.
01:11:25And without his quick thinking, we'd all be finished.
01:11:32The pressure doors are still open.
01:11:40I need to see how much of my ship is still working.
01:11:43Can I see?
01:11:59I can see.
01:12:00No, no.
01:12:03We're not trying to leave a block.
01:12:03I can see.
01:12:05No, no, no.
01:12:12I can't imagine.
01:12:12I can see.
01:12:33What is going on?
01:12:35What is happening to my ship?
01:12:37We're breached staffed in engineering.
01:12:38They've been sealed off.
01:12:40Ventilate them.
01:12:41They need air.
01:12:41Captain, the back pressure will bleed.
01:12:42The entire system will all be pressurized.
01:12:45Use O2 tank 3.
01:12:46Dump the entire thing into the chamber wholesale.
01:12:49Come on!
01:12:50Spend!
01:12:52Spend!
01:12:55Spend!
01:12:58Spend!
01:12:59Tell us!
01:13:01Breaks will be sealed in a moment.
01:13:03I need you to...
01:13:10Fire in engineering!
01:13:20I need you to get on the CO2!
01:13:32I need you to get on the CO2!
01:13:40I need you to get on the CO2!
01:13:45Let's go!
01:13:48Let's go!
01:13:49Let's go!
01:13:49Let's go!
01:13:56Is there anything else that we can do?
01:13:59Nothing.
01:14:00If they can't get that fire out.
01:14:24Actors craft.
01:14:26Actors craft.
01:14:32Actors craft.
01:15:02Actors craft.
01:15:16We're on auxiliary power.
01:15:18I think the fire's out, Captain.
01:15:20Release the oxygen.
01:15:32Arrfist.
01:15:33What up, you alright?
01:15:35Come on, you alright?
01:15:37Come on, it's alright.
01:15:41Come on!
01:15:43Come on!
01:15:43No!
01:15:45You let me go!
01:15:47There's nothing to do!
01:15:48There's nothing to do!
01:15:51Get out of here!
01:15:53No!
01:15:56Yeah, but he's all right.
01:15:57Yeah, but he's all right.
01:15:59He's all right.
01:16:01Yeah, he's all right.
01:16:02Yeah, he's all right.
01:16:27The hull breach is temporarily patched, but we need a dry dock before we can reasonably
01:16:33go into combat again.
01:16:35All five railgun mounts are non-responsive since that last hit, and those early fuel tanks
01:16:41are destroyed, and that's what started the fire.
01:16:46We're running limited capacity on battery backup, which-
01:16:49Won't give us enough power to maneuver.
01:16:51Move on.
01:16:53Eleven men are dead, fifteen wounded, and only three of the engine crew survived.
01:16:57All the computers crashed and switched over to battery, and some of the systems rebooted,
01:17:02but others are just gone.
01:17:04The good news is, whatever got into our thruster control seems to have been flushed out by
01:17:07the system crash.
01:17:15Okay.
01:17:18Tell me the bad part.
01:17:20Well, the SSD has taken significant damage, and Tamai is obviously not up to repairing or
01:17:26operating it.
01:17:27And no one else on board has his knowledge or experience.
01:17:32We can't go home.
01:17:36This is a disaster.
01:17:37Marcus.
01:17:38It wasn't even the right ship.
01:17:39You should be proud of your crew, sir.
01:17:42Whoever the Volturine was, she would have preyed on others, possibly allies.
01:17:46We lost some good men, but that happens in this profession.
01:17:53Sir, you should be proud of them all.
01:18:00I suppose we've done our part in this search.
01:18:08Reactor is critical, reactor is critical, all engines ready to begin added maneuvers.
01:18:16There's the real good news.
01:18:18The reactor was somehow undamaged, and it looks like our surviving crew members were able to
01:18:22get it up and running.
01:18:25You take the comm?
01:18:35Give me five minutes.
01:18:45How about you, Tom?
01:18:46Are you holding up?
01:18:48Oh, yes.
01:18:49I'm just fine.
01:18:52You're right.
01:18:53This is a disaster.
01:18:55It's my disaster.
01:18:56Oh, knock it off.
01:18:57I just thought that you should make a real decision for once.
01:19:00And I did.
01:19:02And I have to live with it.
01:19:05You don't.
01:19:11Pull yourself together and have a drink.
01:19:31How about the navigation systems?
01:19:35What?
01:19:36What?
01:19:36Oh.
01:19:38Completely dead.
01:19:40I can still do manual plots.
01:19:43I'll get us into port.
01:19:45You'll have to get us home after that.
01:19:50You want me to calculate a transition by hand?
01:19:54Proper help is unlikely to present itself in the stainless sheets.
01:19:57Equipment to repair the drive?
01:19:59Maybe.
01:19:59But personnel?
01:20:00I think not.
01:20:01But I barely even scraped those classes.
01:20:04And without Dennis here to run the drive, if we can even get it fixed, then you better
01:20:08break out the displacement manual.
01:20:09Work with Gary on this.
01:20:12We're going to need a second just in case something happens to you.
01:20:14Oh my god.
01:20:15Not Gary.
01:20:16Kai.
01:20:16Gary will be busy unsticking the guns.
01:20:22It'll be at least two weeks until we reach the Fel.
01:20:25Just long enough to get used to the idea of becoming an Arkwright.
01:20:29Marcus.
01:20:30Don't call me Marcus.
01:20:31Get on it right away.
01:20:33Alright.
01:21:01Your orders, Captain.
01:21:13Helm, come to course 185 by 046, roll angle 31 degrees.
01:21:23Best safe speed to St. Nishit.
01:21:26Aye, sir.
01:21:27Course 185 by 046, roll angle 31 degrees, thrusting ahead.
01:21:35Yeah.
01:21:43No.
01:21:47Yes.
01:22:02No.
01:22:03No.
01:22:03No.
