Short filmTranscript
00:00:15I
00:00:15Must be crazy, but I have to know the truth
00:00:26Sharks
00:00:34I can't swim. Am I going to die here?
00:00:39Don't be afraid, Noah. Daddy will catch you.
00:00:42Dad
00:00:51Dad was right. Mermaids are real.
00:00:58Dad
00:01:13Mom? What's wrong?
00:01:15Noah, your father is dead.
00:01:21Otherwise, you are mine.
00:01:30Mom? What's wrong?
00:01:32Noah, your father is dead.
00:01:35What? No, this isn't true, is it?
00:01:37Heart attack. The police said he had a heart attack on that godforsaken island. He was a complete lunaturk. He
00:01:43brought this on himself.
00:01:44He wasn't crazy. He was a top marine biologist. He must have been murdered.
00:01:47Enough. Stop with your conspiracy theories. Come back immediately and prepare for graduate school.
00:01:51I won't allow you to touch his disgusting research.
00:01:53No, I have to investigate Dad's death.
00:01:55Dad was called a madman his whole life because he said there were mermaids in the sea. I have to
00:02:00go to that island.
00:02:02Dad lived alone on this island for ten years. No neighbors. No signal. Just him and his research.
00:02:08His death must be related with the research.
00:02:13Someone's been here. What are they looking for?
00:02:23My god.
00:02:26Dad, what did you hide here?
00:02:32They are real.
00:02:36Mermaids really exist.
00:02:41Monster!
00:02:43Mermaids' legs are connected by membranes.
00:02:46Once in water, they fuse into a powerful tail fin.
00:02:50They are extremely sensitive to music and firelight.
00:02:53On the night of the full moon, they emerge.
00:02:57Who are you?
00:02:58Relax. I'm Jack Turner, your father's former assistant.
00:03:00My father never mentioned having an assistant.
00:03:02Your father was a genius. We once captured a female mermaid together.
00:03:05She was beautiful but ferocious.
00:03:06After we put her in the basement tank, her legs instantly fused into a fin.
00:03:10What happened then?
00:03:10She bit through the chain and escaped back to the sea.
00:03:12After your father went into town for supplies, I got word that he had passed away.
00:03:15I'm sorry kid, he was a good man.
00:03:16Why are you coming back now?
00:03:17I'm a PhD student researching genetically modified species.
00:03:19Your father's research notes are very important for my thesis.
00:03:21Also, I brought supplies.
00:03:22Canned food, batteries, power banks, there's no delivery on this island.
00:03:25I don't trust him, but he knows things about dad.
00:03:28And I really do need supplies.
00:03:31I'll keep him around for now.
00:03:33Dad's note said, full moon night, firelight, will they come?
00:03:38Shit.
00:03:39It's not a mermaid.
00:03:40It's a shark.
00:03:42Am I going to die?
00:04:07Oh God, this is real.
00:04:16Dad wasn't crazy.
00:04:18He never was.
00:04:21I'm alive.
00:04:25Blood?
00:04:26What happened?
00:04:27We're rich.
00:04:29This thing is definitely worth a fortune.
00:04:32It's the one who saved me last night.
00:04:34Stop!
00:04:35Are you crazy?
00:04:37He's not human.
00:04:38It took everything I had to knock him out from behind.
00:04:40This monster is incredibly strong.
00:04:42He saved my life.
00:04:43When I fell into the sea, he pulled me up from underwater.
00:04:46What?
00:04:46If it weren't for him, I'd have been eaten by sharks.
00:04:49Wait.
00:04:50A male mermaid actively saved you?
00:04:52That shows he has social skills, emotional awareness.
00:04:55This is even more valuable than I imagined.
00:04:57He is not your cash cow.
00:04:59Fine.
00:04:59Fine.
00:05:00Fine.
00:05:00Don't kill him.
00:05:02But we have to deal with him, don't we?
00:05:04He's bleeding on the living room floor.
00:05:05At this rate, either he dies, or when he wakes up, we both die.
00:05:19Well, it might better see you than we're draining the both crew over there.
00:05:23We'll put him in the tank.
00:05:25Water might help him recover faster.
00:05:26Dad's notes mention that.
00:05:27Recover faster?
00:05:28Then he'll tear us apart faster when he wakes up.
00:05:31Do you have a better idea?
00:05:39Three, two, one!
00:05:52Everything in Dad's notes is real.
00:05:56If he wakes up, pray he just dies.
00:05:58Dead, we can still make a fortune.
00:06:01I'll give you a name.
00:06:03I'll call you Kai.
00:06:05It means ocean.
00:06:14Damn.
00:06:15He's awake.
00:06:16Yeah, he's awake.
00:06:16Time.
00:06:22Time.

00:09:48No.
00:09:54Come with me.
00:09:55Where?
00:09:56You're hurt.
00:09:58We should treat that first.
00:10:10This is Dad's old phone?
00:10:13No.
00:10:20Sent to Mom, I might be in danger.
00:10:24Protect Noah.
00:10:34You know my father?
00:10:38I won't let anyone hurt you again.
00:10:43He came to my door on his own.
00:10:45He's curious about everything.
00:10:47I tried to teach him to wave hello.
00:10:49His learning speed far exceeds that of a human toddler.
00:10:55A genius.
00:10:56Less than 20 seconds.
00:10:58His spatial reasoning is astonishing.
00:11:06No.
00:11:08No.
00:11:09Yes!
00:11:10That's my son!
00:11:11Noah!
00:11:12Noah!
00:11:13Noah!
00:11:14Noah!
00:11:16Noah!
00:11:17Noah!
00:11:17Noah, if you're watching this, you need to prepare yourself.
00:11:22Noah, this is biologically impossible.
00:11:25He only started changing dramatically after seeing your photo.
00:11:29You triggered his maturation.
00:11:31He has chosen you.
00:11:33He evolved into his complete form for me?
00:11:37Take care of yourself, Noah.
00:11:38And take care of him.
00:11:45I won't let anyone hurt you again.
00:11:49A group came today.
00:11:50They captured another mermaid.
00:11:51A female.
00:11:54She's badly injured.
00:11:56Tortured.
00:11:57They said they'd kept her for a year.
00:11:59They came to me, said they wanted me to fix her.
00:12:02Someone told them I knew how.
00:12:03They want to sell her to the government.
00:12:04They said they'd already sold one before.
00:12:06For a good price.
00:12:07I have to save her.
00:12:08I have to try.
00:12:09I don't know if I'll make it.
00:12:09If something happens to me.
00:12:10Remember, Dad loves you more than life itself.
00:12:12You're the only thing I'll regret leaving behind.
00:12:13Jack couldn't have been Dad's assistant.
00:12:15He was one of them.
00:12:15One of the ones who brought that female mermaid.
00:12:17The ones who needed someone to fix her.
00:12:19The basement tank wasn't for observation.
00:12:21It was for imprisonment.
00:12:23Dad didn't die of a heart attack.
00:12:24That was just a lie they made up.
00:12:26And Kai killed Jack.
00:12:29For the first time,
00:12:31I think he did the right thing.
00:12:39Don't leave.
00:12:42But I know Kai can't stay here.
00:12:44This island isn't safe anymore.
00:12:47Those people will come back.
00:12:57You have to go.
00:12:58Those people will come sooner or later.
00:13:00I've already sent a distress signal.
00:13:02A boat will come for me.
00:13:04But you can't be here.
00:13:06If they see you.
00:13:08If they see you.
00:13:08Noah.
00:13:10Noah.
00:13:11Go.
00:13:21Mr. Reed.
00:13:23The Coast Guard sent me to pick you up.
00:13:34This isn't the direction to Island City.
00:13:37Where is Jack?
00:13:38I don't know what you're talking about.
00:13:39Don't play dumb.
00:13:41Jack came to this island for your father's research and then he disappeared.
00:13:44You're the last person who saw him.
00:13:47One more time.
00:13:48Where's Jack?
00:13:51He's dead.
00:13:55Who killed him?
00:13:56You?
00:14:00I'll count to three.
00:14:02One.
00:14:03Two.
00:14:04Two.
00:14:17Don't move.
00:14:31Kai.
00:14:31Kai look at me.
00:14:32No.
00:14:34Hey.
00:14:35Okay.
00:14:36Okay.
00:14:37Why did you come back?
00:14:39I told you to go.
00:14:40You could've.
00:14:41Won't.
00:14:42Leave.
00:14:59No!
00:14:59No!
00:15:00No!
00:15:01No!
00:15:01No!
00:15:02No!
00:15:02No!
00:15:02Mr. Reed.
00:15:03There's a man outside.
00:15:04What?
00:15:05He's been sitting on the steps outside.
00:15:07He only says one word.
00:15:08Your name.
00:15:10Noah.
00:15:12Noah.
00:15:19Why are you still here?
00:15:21Why are you still here?
00:15:21Your skin is sunburned.
00:15:22You're going to die.
00:15:24Not leave.
00:15:25Let him go.
00:15:26Let him go.
00:15:27Mom!
00:15:27What are you doing?
00:15:28I'm saving you.
00:15:29Look at yourself.
00:15:31With a man of unknown origin.
00:15:33He saved my life.
00:15:34Just like your father thought he was doing the right thing.
00:15:37How did your father end up?
00:15:39Have you forgotten?
00:15:44Move.
00:15:44No!
00:15:50Come find me.
00:15:52If you can.
00:15:57No!
00:15:58No!
00:16:01No!
00:16:05I found you.
00:16:09Three years.
00:16:14I spent three years becoming someone they trust, finished my PhD,
00:16:19endured every insincerious smile, every disgusting dinner.
00:16:22All of this for one answer.
00:16:24How dad died, who gave the order.
00:16:26The mermaids imprisoned here, how many more.
00:16:29I don't want to be here.
00:16:34Hold on a little longer, we're almost there.
00:16:48I found you.
00:17:03How did you, how did you get here?
00:17:08By plane.
00:17:14You can talk, full sentences.
00:17:17Three years of study.
00:17:21She's the female mermaid dad mentioned in the video?
00:17:25Serena.
00:17:26She needs water.
00:17:37I love you.
00:17:38I won't pretend I don't.
00:17:41I'm not human.
00:17:42I'm not going to dance around the word.
00:17:46Kai, a lot has changed in these three years.
00:17:49My situation is complicated.
00:17:54It's not what you think.
00:17:57I understand.
00:17:58Serena, we're leaving.
00:18:00Stop.
00:18:02I want you.
00:18:04I've only ever wanted you.
00:18:08That man, Marcus, he's with Aureide.
00:18:13I'm using him.
00:18:14For three years, I've been pretending to be with him.
00:18:16O.R.D.?
00:18:17A government secret research facility.
00:18:20My father used to work there.
00:18:21He discovered the truth and wanted to expose it.
00:18:23Then they killed him.
00:18:24Do you know why I went for a PhD?
00:18:26I needed an identity to infiltrate it.
00:18:29I needed to find evidence proof that my father was murdered.
00:18:33Marcus is in the core department.
00:18:35He has top-level clearance.
00:18:37Getting close to him was the only way.
00:18:41Do you hate him?
00:18:43Every second.
00:18:47You don't have to carry this alone.
00:18:57Kai, there's one more thing.
00:18:59Inside Aureide.
00:19:01There might be other mermaids imprisoned.
00:19:03How many?
00:19:04I'm not sure.
00:19:06But I heard sounds in the B-level basement.
00:19:08Clicking sounds.
00:19:09Not machines.
00:19:10It's language.
00:19:13Serena!
00:19:16I secretly recorded this in Aureide's B-section.
00:19:19Human ears can't hear it.
00:19:21But you should be able to.
00:19:28Serena!
00:19:29Serena!
00:19:33What did you hear?
00:19:35Three voices.
00:19:36Two females.
00:19:38One.
00:19:38Child.
00:19:40They're screaming.
00:19:41Calling for help.
00:19:42The voices are very weak.
00:19:43They're about to give up.
00:19:45Serena, she went through that too.
00:19:46I know.
00:19:47Dad mentioned it in the video.
00:19:48You don't know the whole story.
00:19:49She was captured as a child.
00:19:51Locked in an iron cage for an entire year.
00:19:53Your father contacted-
00:19:54She's a queen.
00:19:56The highest ranking being in our kind.
00:19:58But she was tortured so badly she forgot who she was.
00:20:02Take me there.
00:20:04I want to save them.
00:20:07No.
00:20:08That's a military-grade security facility.
00:20:10Rushing in is suicide.
00:20:11So let them continue rotting inside?
00:20:12Not giving up.
00:20:13The timing isn't right.
00:20:14I need more intel.
00:20:15If we mess it up, the ones inside are finished too.
00:20:18Give me a deadline.
00:20:19Let me first figure out which floor they're on, how many there are, how the security rotates.
00:20:22Then we act.
00:20:24Because of me?
00:20:26Because you're my mate.
00:20:27You made breakfast?
00:20:29I lived in the human world for three years.
00:20:31Learned quite a bit.
00:20:35Better than what I make.
00:20:39What exactly is her status?
00:20:40You said she's a queen.
00:20:42In our society, the queen is the highest ranking existence.
00:20:44She has four or five betas around her.
00:20:46Nest.
00:20:47When a queen matures, she enters a nesting period.
00:20:49She chooses her mate, forms a harem.
00:20:51Hera?
00:20:51Multiple males?
00:20:52Four or five is normal.
00:20:53An older queen can have 20.
00:20:54Not all are used for mating.
00:20:55Most are guardians.
00:20:57So right now?
00:20:58She's about to enter her first nesting period.
00:21:00She'll become unstable.
00:21:01Instinct will drive her to seduce any suitable male.
00:21:04Including humans?
00:21:05Humans have no resistance to a queen's allure.
00:21:07That's also why I can't leave her alone in the sea.
00:21:09What about you?
00:21:11Before, were you also a queen's beta?
00:21:13A long time ago, my queen was killed by humans.
00:21:17So were my brothers.
00:21:18After that, I met your father.
00:21:20Saw your photo.
00:21:21My body changed.
00:21:22I evolved from a beta into an alpha.
00:21:24Because of me?
00:21:26Because you're my mate.
00:21:28My instinct made the choice.
00:21:30Irreversible.
00:21:41Kai, put on a shirt.
00:21:45Surprise!
00:21:46Guess who got promoted?
00:21:47Senior research angelist.
00:21:49I made it!
00:21:52Congratulations.
00:21:55You have guests?
00:21:56My friend.
00:21:57From back home.
00:21:58You never mentioned having friends from back home?
00:22:02We've only known each other for a year, Marcus.
00:22:04There's a lot you don't know.
00:22:06Hello.
00:22:07I'm Marcus.
00:22:07Not much of a talker?
00:22:09He had throat surgery.
00:22:11His voice is different from most people's.
00:22:15And this is?
00:22:17Also a friend.
00:22:18She has skin issues.
00:22:20Needs to soak in water often.
00:22:21Her eyes seem a bit unusual.
00:22:23You're making her uncomfortable.
00:22:26Your voice?
00:22:27After effects of the throat surgery.
00:22:28I told you.
00:22:29Marcus, why didn't you call before coming?
00:22:32I came to celebrate.
00:22:34But you look busy.
00:22:35Another time.
00:22:38That was too close.
00:22:41There's a smell on him.
00:22:43What kind of smell?
00:22:44The same smell as the people who captured my kind.
00:22:50Did he touch you?
00:22:54Six months.
00:22:55You've been with him for six months.
00:22:57Has he touched you?
00:22:58Kissed.
00:22:59To keep up the cover.
00:23:00That's all.
00:23:01If he touches even one finger on you again,
00:23:04I will kill him.
00:23:06You can't kill anyone.
00:23:08Not here.
00:23:10Not now.
00:23:11Then don't let him touch you.
00:23:18It won't happen again, I promise you.
00:23:24The surveillance shuts down for maintenance at midnight.
00:23:26We have two hours.
00:23:42Come in.
00:23:53Get out.
00:23:54Now.
00:24:03Your arm.
00:24:04It's fine.
00:24:05She can't control herself.
00:24:10What just happened?
00:24:11Was that the nesting response?
00:24:13Her body is looking for suitable betas.
00:24:15A queen in nesting releases a signal sent, fluorescent sound waves.
00:24:18Any male who senses it will be drawn to her.
00:24:20Including you?
00:24:20I'm an alpha.
00:24:21Alphas have no physical response to a queen.
00:24:23We only respond to our own mates.
00:24:24But betas are different.
00:24:25And humans are different.
00:24:26You're saying if a human male gets close to her...
00:24:27He'll lose his mind.
00:24:28So she can't leave this apartment.
00:24:30Especially if she can't be seen by your boyfriend.
00:24:35Does she know what happened to herself?
00:24:39Yes.
00:24:41That's why she's scared.
00:24:51From now on, when she glows, don't go near her.
00:24:55Don't look into her eyes.
00:24:58They're behind this door.
00:25:00Now that I've been promoted, I should show you what our department really does.
00:25:11Look at this.
00:25:15What species is this from?
00:25:17Classified.
00:25:17You know how it is.
00:25:27That's not a specimen container.
00:25:29That's a live transport box.
00:25:33They're behind this door.
00:25:54Reed.
00:25:56You are Marcus' assistant.
00:25:59You don't know me, but I know you.
00:26:01I also knew your father.
00:26:03I don't know what you're talking about.
00:26:05Don't act.
00:26:05You were in the B-4 corridor at 1147 last night.
00:26:07You don't have clearance for that area.
00:26:09Surveillance has blind spots, but not every corner is blind.
00:26:11The game you're playing isn't safe.
00:26:12They've noticed you.
00:26:13Who's noticed me?
00:26:13Why do you think Marcus got promoted?
00:26:14Not because his papers were good?
00:26:16Because the project he manages entered a new phase.
00:26:18A project that's been ongoing since World War II.
00:26:20Your father got close to these things, too.
00:26:22You know how he ended up.
00:26:24What are you trying to say?
00:26:25I'm saying, you're not the only one who wants to open that door.
00:26:30Don't drive home tonight.
00:26:32Walk.
00:26:33Slow down when you pass 7th Street.
00:26:39You've been following me for six blocks.
00:26:42Say what you want to say.
00:26:43Not here.
00:26:43Let's go upstairs.
00:26:48He smells like my kind.
00:26:52Alpha.
00:26:53You're Alpha.
00:26:55Kai!
00:26:56Put him down.
00:26:57He might be friendly.
00:27:01Start from the beginning.
00:27:02I was originally a veteranian.
00:27:04Marine mammals.
00:27:04Five years ago, O-Ride recruited me.
00:27:06Set was set with Stained Reef Species Protection Program.
00:27:07They called the Project Leviathan and Spare Me 2.
00:27:09Initially, the military found a few mermaid corpses.
00:27:11Then it became live capture.
00:27:13Then...
00:27:13Sudarin and Marsalade.
00:27:14Did my tits disappear?
00:27:14Gene extraction, hybridizations, and didn't want to harm them.
00:27:17But after he got access to the core data, he wanted to make everything public.
00:27:20Then they killed him.
00:27:20They first smeared him as a mental patient and revoked all his academic credentials.
00:27:23Then they arranged for him to retire to that isolated island.
00:27:25He took away some key data.
00:27:26They thought he would quietly disappear.
00:27:27But your father was too smart.
00:27:27He started secretly contacting the outside world.
00:27:29Those poachers.
00:27:29The ones who brought the injured field capture and transport.
00:27:31After your father got in touch with that female, or I deemed him uncontrollable.
00:27:33How many are still locked inside?
00:27:34Twelve.
00:27:35Five betas.
00:27:35Sedated long-term.
00:27:36Their minds are already broken.
00:27:37Three juvenile females.
00:27:38One omega.
00:27:38Two adult alphas.
00:27:39And one...
00:27:39A young male.
00:27:40Born in the lab.
00:27:40Has never seen the sky.
00:27:41He's top secret.
00:27:42Requires level 7 clearance and above to access.
00:27:44Why is he so special?
00:27:44Because now he's a hybrid.
00:27:45Because the filtration only keeps them barely alive.
00:27:47Their skin is cracking.
00:27:47Their immune systems are failing.
00:27:48At this rate, they have maybe one more year.
00:27:50Why are you telling me all this?
00:27:50Because I watch them die every day and I can't do anything about it.
00:27:53I signed an NDA.
00:27:54I can't leave.
00:27:54But you, you have the motivation, you have the identity, and you have him.
00:27:58What else should I know?
00:27:59Marcus Shaw is not some senior research analyst.
00:28:01He's the scientific director of the entire Mermaid Project.
00:28:04He's known who you have been since day one.
00:28:30Six months.
00:28:31I thought I was using him.
00:28:33Every disgusting smile, every reluctant touch, I thought I was the one acting.
00:28:38But from start to finish, I was the one being played.
00:28:44Does it hurt?
00:28:46My hand doesn't hurt.
00:28:48Other places do.
00:28:50Here.
00:28:51You said they're here.
00:28:53Ethan said he can cooperate from the inside.
00:28:55Shut down B4 surveillance signal for 15 minutes.
00:28:57Unlock the emergency passage.
00:28:58But we only have that 15 minute window.
00:29:02Enough.
00:29:02Not enough.
00:29:04There are armed guards, biometric locks, escape...
00:29:07Every extra day we wait, someone inside dies another day.
00:29:11Noah.
00:29:17Tomorrow at 3 a.m., we go in.
00:29:28I'm coming too.
00:29:37No matter what happens tomorrow, you, you have to live.
00:29:42What about you?
00:29:44Kai, what about you?
00:29:47My life has never been mine.
00:29:49It belongs to you.
00:29:51Don't say that.
00:29:56We come back alive together.
00:29:58That's an order.
00:30:01Roger that.
00:30:06Uniforms are real.
00:30:06The access cards will get you through the first checkpoints.
00:30:08The fourth B4's door I'll open from the inside.
00:30:10I'll enter the surveillance room at 2.55.
00:30:12Shut down B4's camera fed at 3 Klugger Sharp.
00:30:14You'll have 15 minutes.
00:30:15Evacuation route.
00:30:16Southside freight passage.
00:30:18Leads to the underground parking garage.
00:30:19I parked a van in spot C7.
00:30:22Keys are behind the left front fender.
00:30:27She's conserving strength.
00:30:28She's capable of more than we imagine.
00:30:37Let's go.
00:30:45Serena, you stay here and wait for our signal.
00:30:57Stay close to me and try not to talk.
00:31:04Go ahead.
00:31:13Ethan said he'd open the fourth door from the inside.
00:31:15We have to wait.
00:31:29Seawater and blood.
00:31:41It's okay.
00:31:42It's okay.
00:31:46Oh my goodness, all of them are your people.
00:32:01Are you still alive?
00:32:06They can't hear anymore.
00:32:08Their minds are completely broken.
00:32:16Help.
00:32:19Kai!
00:32:20We can't make noise.
00:32:22We only have seven minutes left.
00:32:42Noah, he looks like you.
00:32:50Someone's coming.
00:32:52It's exactly the same.
00:33:00Who are you?
00:33:11Welcome to B4, Noah.
00:33:12I've been waiting a long time for this day.
00:33:16I wouldn't do that.
00:33:20Kai!
00:33:23You really thought I didn't know?
00:33:25From the day you first set foot in this building, I knew you would come.
00:33:28You used me!
00:33:29No, I'm studying you.
00:33:30You're living data, Noah.
00:33:31A pure natural variable.
00:33:34What are you talking about?
00:33:37Your father, James Reed, wasn't just a scientist.
00:33:41He was a core team member of the Leviathan Project.
00:33:44Genetic engineering division.
00:33:45So we kicked him out.
00:33:46There was a mermaid queen who gave birth during an experiment.
00:33:49Twins.
00:33:49We were told one of them died, but that was a lie.
00:33:52He stole one of the babies.
00:33:53Disappeared with him.
00:33:54Raised him as human.
00:33:55Let him think he was normal.
00:33:56No, that baby was you, Noah.
00:34:01And that is your twin brother.
00:34:05The one who stayed.
00:34:08No, this can't be true.
00:34:13Put him in.
00:34:14You're insane!
00:34:15You have half mermaid genes.
00:34:1822 years, never activated.
00:34:20Because you've never truly come close to the water of death.
00:34:23Your father was too careful, raising you on dry land away from anything that might trigger
00:34:27the mutation.
00:34:28But genes don't disappear.
00:34:30They're just waiting for the right stimulus.
00:34:32Drowning is the most effective trigger.
00:34:37Let him go!
00:34:40Noah, soon you'll be just like your people.
00:34:59Look, a miracle's about to happen.
00:35:06See?
00:35:07You just need to drown him.
00:35:09Gene activation successful.
00:35:10Gill slips complete.
00:35:12Skin fluorescent normal.
00:35:13The only hybrid to survive to adulthood.
00:35:22Soulmate pairing.
00:35:22Living specimen A and specimen B.
00:35:24Genetic compatibility test results are in.
00:35:26Perfect match.
00:35:27Dream on.
00:35:28Of course, the most valuable data requires your cooperation.
00:35:30Infusion response during natural mating.
00:35:32This is data we've never obtained.
00:35:33We already have data on mermaid reproduction,
00:35:35but the union of a hybrid and a blu- alpha,
00:35:36alpha,
00:35:37this will be the ultimate breakthrough of the Leviathan project.
00:35:39Touch a single hair on his head.
00:35:40I dare you.
00:35:41I was hoping you'd cooperate willingly.
00:35:48Your queen friend.
00:35:49Ethan brought her into the building,
00:35:50thought I wouldn't know.
00:35:51Too bad he underestimated this building's surveillance density.
00:35:56So, you cooperate with data collection.
00:35:58I promise not to harm her.
00:36:00Otherwise,
00:36:02not now.
00:36:07Good.
00:36:08A wise choice.
00:36:09Fine.
00:36:27You're a nightmare.
00:36:34Serena, make it quick.
00:36:35What kind of monster is this?
00:36:37I can't even control my own body.
00:36:40He didn't need to let.
00:36:45Catch her!
00:36:51Well done, Serena.
00:36:53I'll go rescue them first.
00:36:58Can you walk?
00:36:59Yes.
00:37:05Kai!
00:37:05They're helping us!
00:37:06When the control wears off,
00:37:07they'll remember everything.
00:37:08They'll become threats.
00:37:09Help me flush this.
00:37:18She can't last much longer!
00:37:20Go!
00:37:30Southgate exit!
00:37:42They mobilized.
00:37:44They mobilized.
00:37:46A serious security incident occurred tonight.
00:37:49A group of criminals broke into a federal marine research facility and stole highly dangerous experimental materials.
00:37:56Authorities warn the public.
00:37:57If you encounter suspicious individuals, report immediately and do not occur.
00:38:12they have labeled her as criminals.
00:38:13They've labeled us as criminals.
00:38:17Do not curse!
00:38:18Dangerous, experimental materials.
00:38:19They won't even use the word beings.
00:38:37she needs seawater if this continues her internal organs will start failing where's the nearest
00:38:41coast three hours south by car but every major highway has alerts now we'll have to take back
00:38:45roads this should last you a while i need to go the other way to mexico find my contacts or
00:38:53rd won't
00:38:53let me go thank you don't thank me get the truth out that's why i took this risk protect him
00:39:20will you come with me
00:39:33i'll go with you
00:40:04this isn't a primitive cave this is a civilization
00:40:12now what's this a nighter
00:40:18they're kneeling to you
00:40:20it's been away too long i thought i was dead
00:40:39an alpha needs his omega
00:40:42tell me
00:40:43in our civilization the union of an alpha and an omega is not just mating
00:40:46it's a soul level lock once completed irreversible
00:40:50my life will be bound to yours if you're hurt i'll feel it if you die i can't live either
00:40:55what if i say i'm willing
00:41:15my love is a brand there's no turning back you are mine
00:41:20i am yours i know
00:41:39what did he say
00:41:42he says you must leave your appearance will draw human attention
00:41:47if there's too much activity humans might discover this settlement
00:42:04thank you
00:42:05bathtub
00:42:06that bathtub was too small you deserve the whole ocean
00:42:16a brief piece i should cherish it
00:42:36there are 12 people still locked in those tanks
00:42:50you just escaped from that place they almost killed you they held you underwater to drown you do you want
00:42:54to go back so what we hide on this island forever
00:42:59i'm gonna get them all out
00:43:06i'm gonna get them all out
00:43:07you're insane i've never been more clear-headed than now
00:43:10you just escaped from that place they almost killed you they held you underwater to drown you do you want
00:43:13to go back
00:43:14so what we hide on this island forever pretend those 12 people don't exist pretend i don't
00:43:18have a brother who's been locked in a tank since birth
00:43:19i can't lose you
00:43:23i spent three years finding you and every ounce of strength not losing you
00:43:27and now you want me to watch you walk into their trap
00:43:31we can't be selfish your people are being slaughtered
00:43:34maybe our mission isn't to have children on a deserted island it's to save them
00:43:49you were right we can't be selfish
00:43:57you came back
00:44:00i went to the tribe
00:44:03i asked them to send warriors told them about orid
00:44:0612 imprisoned tribe members hybrid experiments the genetic weapons program
00:44:09what did they say the elders need to discuss
00:44:13but they didn't refuse you were right we can't be selfish
00:44:19i'd rather die fighting than rot in false peace
00:44:25the elders want us to go to glandes the tribe where i was born
00:44:28it's one of the largest underwater cities
00:44:31if we're to gather warriors it must be approved by the council there
00:44:33how far two days and two nights non-stop swimming
00:44:39leave tomorrow
00:44:46you've brought an outsider into the sacred place
00:44:49he's not an outsider he's my omega
00:44:54almost there
00:44:58this is where kai grew up
00:45:05they're kneeling to you
00:45:06i've been away too long they thought i was dead
00:45:10kai you bastard five years no word for five years
00:45:12darian i'm back
00:45:13kai you brought a human to glandis he's my mate
00:45:19kai you've brought an outsider into the sacred place
00:45:22he's not an outsider
00:45:24he's my omega
00:45:25a hybrid
00:45:27half human half mermaid
00:45:29you've chosen a mate who can never fully belong to our world
00:45:31he belongs to me that's enough
00:45:33the purpose of your visit
00:45:35orite is holding 12 of our people captive
00:45:36i request that glandes send warriors
00:45:39we will discuss it at tomorrow's council meeting until then
00:45:42do not let him touch anything
00:45:44you call this surviving our territory shrinks every year
00:45:47you left for five years now you return and demands we die for your impulse
00:45:5112 of our people are locked in an underground human laboratory
00:45:54some have already lost their minds from torture
00:45:56and there's a child among them who has never seen the sea since birth
00:45:59that is human business we have been hiding for thousands of years
00:46:02precisely because we don't interfere we have survived until now
00:46:05survive you call this surviving our territory shrinks every year
00:46:08children are taught to fear the surface from birth
00:46:10this isn't survival it's slow death
00:46:12you left for five years now you return and demands we die for your impulse
00:46:15and you've chosen a hybrid as your mate kai he's not for your bloodline
00:46:19should continue the purest jeep
00:46:20you want to choose a mate for me this isn't a personal matter
00:46:23it concerns the future of our kind
00:46:25he is my future anyone who wants to touch him goes through me first
00:46:32this contains all the records of what human governments have done to our people
00:46:36every experiment every name of the dead if we don't fight back the next one taken
00:46:40could be your child i'm not here to beg i'm here to tell you
00:46:42the war has already begun whether you join or not
00:46:48you have your mother's fire perhaps we have forgotten the meaning of fire
00:46:53at dawn glanders will prepare warriors for war
00:46:57kai
00:47:00your scent has changed
00:47:01what
00:47:09kai
00:47:11your scent has changed
00:47:12what
00:47:15that scent your mate yes
00:47:18he's about to enter heat kai his scent you have to take him away from the tribe i know
00:47:23what's happening what's happening your body is changing i need to take you somewhere safe
00:47:28i can't control it don't try to control it your omega instincts are awakening this is natural
00:47:38kai
00:47:45kai wait until all this is over
00:47:47why
00:47:48i don't want you carrying a child in the middle of a war
00:47:51then you better come back alive
00:47:52i will
00:48:00wait for me
00:48:02glannis can provide 200 warriors but we alone aren't enough orrid has military-grade weaponry
00:48:07i know that's why i didn't just notify glannis
00:48:12the same message traveled across the entire ocean the message was just one sentence we stand together
00:48:18no longer silent kai
00:48:20you sent out the call before we even left on the fourth day on the deserted island
00:48:23the first thing i did after leaving noah
00:48:28where you look in that it's not like the kai i know i've always been like this
00:48:32it's just that what you saw before was the me in front of you
00:48:37i'm coming with you your body hasn't recovered yet the heat that's my brother locked in there
