1
00:00:19,887 --> 00:00:20,945
Target one eliminated.
2
00:00:21,021 --> 00:00:23,319
Switching fire control
to target two.
3
00:00:23,390 --> 00:00:25,722
Can you identify the source
of the distress call?
4
00:00:25,792 --> 00:00:28,523
It is an Enduring Victory
class armored transport.
5
00:00:28,595 --> 00:00:31,360
Nietzschean design,
Sabra-Jaguar Pride markings.
6
00:00:31,431 --> 00:00:33,126
One of the Nietzschean ships
has turned to fire on us.
7
00:00:37,638 --> 00:00:38,730
Big mistake.
8
00:00:38,805 --> 00:00:39,931
Tyr, fire.
9
00:00:40,007 --> 00:00:41,304
Firing.
10
00:00:50,784 --> 00:00:53,344
Targets two and three
eliminated.
11
00:00:53,420 --> 00:00:55,149
Fire control locked
on to transport.
12
00:00:55,222 --> 00:00:58,055
Tyr, we are allied with
the Sabra-Jaguar Pride.
13
00:00:58,792 --> 00:00:59,850
Theoretically.
14
00:00:59,927 --> 00:01:02,157
Well, theoretically,
hold your fire.
15
00:01:02,496 --> 00:01:03,520
Sir.
16
00:01:03,597 --> 00:01:04,792
For now.
17
00:01:04,865 --> 00:01:06,060
Transport is hailing us.
18
00:01:06,934 --> 00:01:08,231
On screen.
19
00:01:08,302 --> 00:01:09,360
Hello, Dylan.
20
00:01:10,237 --> 00:01:12,296
Thrilling entrance, as always.
21
00:01:12,839 --> 00:01:13,863
Elssbett.
22
00:01:20,113 --> 00:01:22,207
Uh, what are you doing here?
23
00:01:22,282 --> 00:01:24,011
Just extending an invitation.
24
00:01:25,385 --> 00:01:27,683
I'm sure you could have
found an easier way.
25
00:01:28,355 --> 00:01:29,481
So,
26
00:01:29,556 --> 00:01:31,581
so what is this?
Another wedding?
27
00:01:33,026 --> 00:01:35,461
A different kind of party.
28
00:01:35,529 --> 00:01:39,159
Pride Sabra-Jaguar is going
to war with the Drago-Kasov,
29
00:01:39,232 --> 00:01:41,098
and you're the guest of honor.
30
00:01:49,509 --> 00:01:51,978
According to
our agents on Enga's Redoubt,
31
00:01:52,045 --> 00:01:54,036
the Dragons are refitting
hundreds
32
00:01:54,114 --> 00:01:55,809
of their old
decommissioned warships
33
00:01:55,882 --> 00:01:56,872
and when they're through,
34
00:01:56,950 --> 00:01:58,941
they will have doubled the size
of their fleet.
35
00:02:00,020 --> 00:02:02,250
Their first target will be the
Jaguar homeworld.
36
00:02:02,322 --> 00:02:03,312
You know, that's funny.
37
00:02:03,390 --> 00:02:05,188
I have agents, too,
and according to them,
38
00:02:05,258 --> 00:02:08,125
you're building a major new
war fleet of your own.
39
00:02:08,195 --> 00:02:11,722
Unfortunately,
ours won't be ready for months.
40
00:02:11,798 --> 00:02:13,323
Theirs launches in a week.
41
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:14,492
Well, if that's the case,
42
00:02:14,568 --> 00:02:16,798
shouldn't you be at home
taking care of your new son?
43
00:02:18,205 --> 00:02:20,173
I forgot how tall you are.
44
00:02:21,842 --> 00:02:25,745
Charlemagne is a wonderful
lover, but his stature
45
00:02:25,812 --> 00:02:28,008
does leave something
to be desired.
46
00:02:29,182 --> 00:02:31,310
Much like the current size
of our fleet.
47
00:02:32,285 --> 00:02:34,310
Luckily we have you
48
00:02:34,388 --> 00:02:37,790
to make up for our unfortunate
deficiencies.
49
00:02:37,858 --> 00:02:39,553
Is that so?
50
00:02:39,626 --> 00:02:41,492
This is a copy of the
Mutual Defense Pact
51
00:02:41,561 --> 00:02:44,587
between the signatories
of your Commonwealth Charter.
52
00:02:45,699 --> 00:02:47,690
Signatories which include
53
00:02:47,768 --> 00:02:49,202
the Sabra-Jaguar Pride.
54
00:02:50,337 --> 00:02:52,465
You want me to fight the Dragons
for you?
55
00:02:52,539 --> 00:02:53,904
Actually,
56
00:02:53,974 --> 00:02:55,533
by the terms of this pact,
57
00:02:56,043 --> 00:02:57,272
I demand it.
58
00:03:01,281 --> 00:03:03,306
I cannot believe
we are going to war
59
00:03:03,383 --> 00:03:05,477
to help Elssbett
and the Jaguars.
60
00:03:05,552 --> 00:03:07,020
Well, you know
that old expression:
61
00:03:07,087 --> 00:03:09,351
"Politics make
strange bedfellows."
62
00:03:09,423 --> 00:03:11,016
Well, it wouldn't be
the first time.
63
00:03:11,591 --> 00:03:12,752
First time for what?
64
00:03:12,826 --> 00:03:14,817
Our problem is
with our other allies.
65
00:03:14,895 --> 00:03:16,556
Castalia, Mobius, Xinti,
66
00:03:16,630 --> 00:03:18,564
they're not exactly superpowers.
67
00:03:18,632 --> 00:03:20,396
I'm Dylan's only real
military asset.
68
00:03:20,467 --> 00:03:21,992
One he can't afford to lose.
69
00:03:22,069 --> 00:03:23,298
Mmm-hmmm.
70
00:03:23,370 --> 00:03:25,805
Unfortunately, Dylan gave Charlemagne
and the Jaguars his word,
71
00:03:25,872 --> 00:03:27,271
and that's the one thing
he's got
72
00:03:27,340 --> 00:03:28,899
that's even less expendable
than you.
73
00:03:40,887 --> 00:03:43,015
We're approaching
the rendezvous point.
74
00:03:43,090 --> 00:03:44,888
Dylan, according to the messages
I'm processing
75
00:03:44,958 --> 00:03:46,255
from the Sabra-Jaguar fleet,
76
00:03:46,326 --> 00:03:49,091
there have been a series of battles on
the Jaguar frontier.
77
00:03:49,162 --> 00:03:51,893
The war has already started.
78
00:03:51,965 --> 00:03:54,093
Once again, your timing is
impeccable.
79
00:03:54,568 --> 00:03:55,626
I do my best.
80
00:03:55,702 --> 00:03:58,262
Updating the tactical situation.
81
00:03:58,338 --> 00:04:01,364
The Dragons have taken Hruska
and Barbour systems.
82
00:04:01,441 --> 00:04:02,840
Hruska? Already?
83
00:04:02,909 --> 00:04:05,606
That's the key to the entire
Diogenes Cluster.
84
00:04:05,679 --> 00:04:06,840
Signal my fleet.
85
00:04:06,913 --> 00:04:09,109
Let them know Hruska will be
our first military objective.
86
00:04:09,182 --> 00:04:10,911
Belay that, Rommie.
87
00:04:10,984 --> 00:04:13,954
I am the Supreme Commander
of our combined forces.
88
00:04:14,020 --> 00:04:15,545
If you want my help,
89
00:04:15,622 --> 00:04:16,612
you do as I say.
90
00:04:17,758 --> 00:04:18,850
Where have I heard that before?
91
00:04:19,626 --> 00:04:21,355
Well, unless you
want to continue
92
00:04:21,428 --> 00:04:22,452
the fight on your own.
93
00:04:23,296 --> 00:04:25,196
So controlling.
94
00:04:25,265 --> 00:04:27,597
I'll return to my fleet
and inform them
95
00:04:27,667 --> 00:04:29,157
of the new chain of command.
96
00:04:29,236 --> 00:04:31,898
With the Supreme Commander's
permission, of course.
97
00:04:32,606 --> 00:04:34,404
Permission granted, of course.
98
00:04:39,246 --> 00:04:41,738
She didn't salute.
Shouldn't she salute?
99
00:04:42,983 --> 00:04:44,712
Well, I'm think that
maybe she went
100
00:04:44,785 --> 00:04:47,686
to the Beka Valentine School
of Military Discipline.
101
00:04:47,754 --> 00:04:49,244
Dylan, I've just picked up
a coded message
102
00:04:49,322 --> 00:04:50,653
in the comm traffic.
103
00:04:50,724 --> 00:04:53,091
Directed through us and relayed
through Mobius intelligence.
104
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,150
I'll take it in my quarters.
105
00:04:54,227 --> 00:04:55,695
Actually, it's addressed
to Harper.
106
00:04:59,466 --> 00:05:00,934
Brendan!
107
00:05:01,001 --> 00:05:04,995
Seamus. It's been a long time,
cuz-o. Too long.
108
00:05:05,539 --> 00:05:06,563
Right back atcha.
109
00:05:07,507 --> 00:05:08,474
Too long.
110
00:05:09,376 --> 00:05:11,276
Look, uh,
111
00:05:11,344 --> 00:05:12,834
I heard about you
and your friends.
112
00:05:12,913 --> 00:05:15,245
This new Commonwealth thing
sounds like a choice scam.
113
00:05:15,315 --> 00:05:16,612
Wish I'd thought of it myself.
114
00:05:17,217 --> 00:05:18,548
The thing is, um,
115
00:05:20,153 --> 00:05:23,487
we been hearing rumors back
home that there's a war coming
116
00:05:23,557 --> 00:05:25,389
between your Dylan
and the Dragons.
117
00:05:26,593 --> 00:05:29,528
The übers are stocking up
on workers, Seamus.
118
00:05:29,596 --> 00:05:32,156
The slave raids
are getting worse every day.
119
00:05:33,433 --> 00:05:36,027
We need your help, and more.
120
00:05:37,404 --> 00:05:39,964
When this war comes, we want in.
121
00:05:41,007 --> 00:05:42,270
It's time, Seamus.
122
00:05:43,310 --> 00:05:44,607
It's time to rise up
123
00:05:45,545 --> 00:05:47,877
and drive the Dragons
off of Earth
124
00:05:48,215 --> 00:05:49,307
forever.
125
00:05:54,921 --> 00:05:57,652
He is the last guardian
of a fallen civilization,
126
00:05:57,724 --> 00:05:59,954
a hero from another time.
127
00:06:00,026 --> 00:06:01,516
Faced with a universe in chaos,
128
00:06:01,595 --> 00:06:03,757
Dylan Hunt recruits
an unlikely crew
129
00:06:03,830 --> 00:06:06,390
and sets out
to reunite the galaxies.
130
00:06:06,466 --> 00:06:10,334
On the starship Andromeda,
hope lives again.
131
00:06:45,672 --> 00:06:46,798
For crying' out loud.
132
00:06:46,873 --> 00:06:48,500
I'm not just talking about
some mudball here.
133
00:06:48,575 --> 00:06:50,669
We're talking about
Earth! Terra!
134
00:06:50,744 --> 00:06:52,178
The mother-world
of all humanity.
135
00:06:52,245 --> 00:06:55,146
It's only the most important
planet in the whole freaking universe.
136
00:06:55,215 --> 00:06:59,209
Hardly. There are 10,433,000
Tarn Vedra class planets
137
00:06:59,286 --> 00:07:00,378
in the known universe.
138
00:07:00,453 --> 00:07:01,648
In the Dragon empire alone,
139
00:07:01,721 --> 00:07:04,816
there are 837 slave planets
just like Earth.
140
00:07:04,891 --> 00:07:05,881
Slave planets?
141
00:07:05,959 --> 00:07:06,949
Mmm-hmmm.
142
00:07:07,027 --> 00:07:08,620
I think what Rommie's trying
to say
143
00:07:08,695 --> 00:07:10,060
in her usual diplomatic fashion
144
00:07:10,130 --> 00:07:11,894
is that Earth isn't
what she used to be.
145
00:07:12,399 --> 00:07:13,594
No, she's not.
146
00:07:13,667 --> 00:07:16,159
Not since the Drago-Kasov pride
conquered her,
147
00:07:16,236 --> 00:07:19,797
destroyed our economy
and enslaved our entire population.
148
00:07:19,873 --> 00:07:21,272
Yeah, that would pretty much
make things suck.
149
00:07:21,341 --> 00:07:23,571
But, we have a chance
to fix that now,
150
00:07:23,643 --> 00:07:24,735
and we have to take it.
151
00:07:24,811 --> 00:07:26,711
Harper, I don't want you
to get your hopes up.
152
00:07:26,780 --> 00:07:27,872
We're fighting a war,
153
00:07:27,948 --> 00:07:29,541
and we don't have the time
or the resources
154
00:07:29,616 --> 00:07:31,846
to liberate every slave planet
in the Dragon empire.
155
00:07:31,918 --> 00:07:32,942
All right, all right.
156
00:07:33,019 --> 00:07:35,454
What exactly are you trying
to tell me here, huh?
157
00:07:35,522 --> 00:07:36,785
That Earth doesn't matter?
158
00:07:38,158 --> 00:07:40,855
Unfortunately,
Earth doesn't matter.
159
00:07:42,228 --> 00:07:43,662
Unless we make it matter.
160
00:07:44,931 --> 00:07:46,399
You want me to go by myself?
161
00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:48,025
No. You can take Rommie.
162
00:07:48,902 --> 00:07:49,960
I got a better idea.
163
00:07:50,036 --> 00:07:52,232
How 'bout you round up
all those warships out there,
164
00:07:52,305 --> 00:07:53,966
head to Earth, and blast
the Dragon garrison to pieces?
165
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,840
I intend to after I've drawn
the Dragon fleet out of position
166
00:07:57,911 --> 00:07:59,310
and as soon as you
and Rommie make sure
167
00:07:59,379 --> 00:08:00,938
that all their armored units
are out in the streets
168
00:08:01,014 --> 00:08:02,106
where they're vulnerable.
169
00:08:02,182 --> 00:08:04,674
Great. Start the revolution
without me.
170
00:08:04,751 --> 00:08:05,980
Anything else I can do for you?
171
00:08:06,052 --> 00:08:08,020
Transmute the elements?
Reverse entropy?
172
00:08:08,088 --> 00:08:09,078
Make you a sandwich?
173
00:08:09,155 --> 00:08:10,122
I won't make you go.
174
00:08:12,359 --> 00:08:14,589
Your cousin doesn't even know
we got his message.
175
00:08:14,661 --> 00:08:15,753
Besides, I could use you here.
176
00:08:15,829 --> 00:08:17,763
But if you want freedom for
Earth, Harper,
177
00:08:17,831 --> 00:08:19,299
you're gonna have to
fight for it.
178
00:08:29,175 --> 00:08:30,973
So, what's Earth like?
179
00:08:31,044 --> 00:08:33,979
What do you care? It has no
strategic value, remember?
180
00:08:34,047 --> 00:08:35,947
Harper, I'm a warship.
181
00:08:36,016 --> 00:08:38,383
I always consider
the military situation first.
182
00:08:38,451 --> 00:08:40,044
It's my nature.
183
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:41,554
But I do care.
184
00:08:41,621 --> 00:08:42,520
Well,
185
00:08:45,492 --> 00:08:46,687
it's a place you love.
186
00:08:47,761 --> 00:08:50,594
It's, uh, you know,
it's a good feeling.
187
00:08:50,663 --> 00:08:53,360
Until you have to see it all
torn down around you.
188
00:08:53,433 --> 00:08:55,424
And there's nothing you can do
to stop it.
189
00:08:55,502 --> 00:08:59,666
We tried, me and Brendan
and our buddy, Isaac.
190
00:08:59,739 --> 00:09:01,264
Yeah, we thought we could beat
the Nietzscheans
191
00:09:01,341 --> 00:09:02,365
all by ourselves.
192
00:09:02,442 --> 00:09:03,841
We'd steal their weapons,
193
00:09:03,910 --> 00:09:05,878
we'd mess
with their floater engines,
194
00:09:05,945 --> 00:09:08,277
we'd blow shrillers
outside their barracks at night.
195
00:09:08,348 --> 00:09:09,838
Shrillers?
196
00:09:09,916 --> 00:09:11,884
These little whistles
I invented. They...
197
00:09:11,951 --> 00:09:13,510
They'd extend into
the ultrasonic
198
00:09:13,586 --> 00:09:16,453
and irritate the hell
out of Nietzschean ear canals.
199
00:09:16,523 --> 00:09:18,890
We'd blow 'em
and they would run like hell.
200
00:09:18,958 --> 00:09:19,948
Sounds like fun.
201
00:09:20,026 --> 00:09:22,290
Yeah, it was. It was.
202
00:09:22,362 --> 00:09:25,662
Until, uh,
until they ambushed us.
203
00:09:25,732 --> 00:09:28,201
An entire Nietzschean platoon
outside the barracks,
204
00:09:28,268 --> 00:09:31,829
waiting for us to show up
with our stupid little toys.
205
00:09:31,905 --> 00:09:34,135
Brendan spotted 'em right away.
He's good like that.
206
00:09:34,207 --> 00:09:36,005
He warned me, but, uh,
207
00:09:36,076 --> 00:09:39,774
Isaac was on the other side
of the compound and, uh,
208
00:09:39,846 --> 00:09:41,211
we could hear his shrilling,
209
00:09:42,315 --> 00:09:44,340
and then it was cut off
by gunshots.
210
00:09:47,887 --> 00:09:49,252
Yeah,
211
00:09:49,322 --> 00:09:50,346
you're gonna love Earth.
212
00:09:56,563 --> 00:09:59,294
A direct assault
on the Dragon Capitol?
213
00:09:59,799 --> 00:10:00,994
That's suicide.
214
00:10:01,734 --> 00:10:02,701
I would agree
215
00:10:03,536 --> 00:10:05,300
were it not for
our Captain Hunt.
216
00:10:05,371 --> 00:10:07,396
His survival instincts are, uh,
217
00:10:07,474 --> 00:10:09,135
well, formidable.
218
00:10:09,209 --> 00:10:10,768
And if they weren't,
219
00:10:10,844 --> 00:10:13,836
you'd be commanding this starship
instead of the human?
220
00:10:13,913 --> 00:10:16,848
The current state of affairs
serves my purpose.
221
00:10:18,151 --> 00:10:19,983
A purpose
which might be better served
222
00:10:20,053 --> 00:10:22,021
by gaining entry into my family.
223
00:10:25,391 --> 00:10:26,620
Oh, please.
224
00:10:28,027 --> 00:10:29,586
I don't need to marry
one of your spare sisters
225
00:10:29,662 --> 00:10:31,187
in order to achieve my goals.
226
00:10:32,832 --> 00:10:34,926
Who said anything
about a sister?
227
00:10:38,071 --> 00:10:39,664
Now,
228
00:10:39,739 --> 00:10:42,208
tell me the captain's
true intentions.
229
00:10:48,815 --> 00:10:51,512
It will take a great deal more
than a whispered promise
230
00:10:51,584 --> 00:10:53,951
to extract from me
any further information
231
00:10:54,020 --> 00:10:55,886
than I've provided already.
232
00:10:57,524 --> 00:10:58,685
However,
233
00:11:01,594 --> 00:11:04,359
you are oh, so very welcome
to try.
234
00:11:09,269 --> 00:11:10,862
There she is, Rommie.
235
00:11:10,937 --> 00:11:12,769
The blue jewel of the galaxy,
236
00:11:13,406 --> 00:11:14,373
Earth.
237
00:11:15,408 --> 00:11:17,706
Craters, high levels
of carbon dioxide,
238
00:11:17,777 --> 00:11:20,439
soot, ash,
nuclear fallout. Lovely.
239
00:11:21,014 --> 00:11:22,209
Hey.
240
00:11:22,282 --> 00:11:24,011
At least all that crap
in the atmosphere
241
00:11:24,083 --> 00:11:25,414
makes us harder to detect.
242
00:11:26,286 --> 00:11:27,412
The question is:
243
00:11:27,487 --> 00:11:28,477
How do we get around
244
00:11:28,555 --> 00:11:30,523
that Nietzschean
orbital defense network?
245
00:11:38,765 --> 00:11:41,029
I gotta hand it to you,
Rommie. I gotta hand it to you.
246
00:11:41,100 --> 00:11:43,899
An artificial meteor swarm?
It's brilliant.
247
00:11:43,970 --> 00:11:47,634
And that is why I love me
for making you.
248
00:11:47,707 --> 00:11:50,301
Uh, and I mean I do love you
too. And by making,
249
00:11:50,376 --> 00:11:53,573
I do mean in a, uh, professional
sort of way.
250
00:11:53,646 --> 00:11:54,841
About that.
251
00:11:54,914 --> 00:11:57,110
When we meet your friends,
don't mention I'm an android.
252
00:11:57,183 --> 00:11:58,617
I've found on missions
like this,
253
00:11:58,685 --> 00:12:00,050
it's always best to
hold a few surprises back
254
00:12:00,119 --> 00:12:01,177
from everyone concerned.
255
00:12:01,254 --> 00:12:02,483
What's the matter, Rommie?
256
00:12:02,555 --> 00:12:03,852
You don't want to listen to me
brag the whole time we're here?
257
00:12:03,923 --> 00:12:04,890
No.
258
00:12:05,458 --> 00:12:06,425
Deal.
259
00:12:07,093 --> 00:12:08,083
Ah.
260
00:12:08,161 --> 00:12:09,219
This smells of home.
261
00:12:10,230 --> 00:12:11,197
This way.
262
00:12:21,307 --> 00:12:22,399
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
263
00:12:22,475 --> 00:12:23,772
She's so frightened.
264
00:12:23,843 --> 00:12:26,175
She's got a lot to be
frightened about.
265
00:12:26,246 --> 00:12:27,941
It's okay, you can come out.
266
00:12:28,014 --> 00:12:29,140
It's okay.
267
00:12:31,417 --> 00:12:33,476
Oh, is this your sister
or your cousin?
268
00:12:34,053 --> 00:12:35,680
Well, either way,
269
00:12:35,755 --> 00:12:39,123
you're both very beautiful,
very brave young ladies.
270
00:12:39,859 --> 00:12:41,793
Can you do me a favor?
271
00:12:41,861 --> 00:12:45,923
Can you please try
and find Brendan Lahey
272
00:12:45,999 --> 00:12:48,696
and tell him his cousin, Seamus,
is here. Can you do that?
273
00:12:56,142 --> 00:12:57,337
What do you want with Brendan?
274
00:12:59,712 --> 00:13:01,612
Like I said,
I'm his cousin, Seamus.
275
00:13:02,148 --> 00:13:03,274
Funny,
276
00:13:03,349 --> 00:13:05,511
Brendan never mentioned
a cousin.
277
00:13:05,585 --> 00:13:09,044
Especially not a collaborator
in nice, shiny new clothes.
278
00:13:09,122 --> 00:13:10,920
I'm not a collaborator.
279
00:13:10,990 --> 00:13:12,253
We're not with the Dragons.
280
00:13:12,325 --> 00:13:16,057
In fact, we're actually here
to try and help save you
281
00:13:16,129 --> 00:13:17,119
from the Dragons.
282
00:13:17,196 --> 00:13:18,493
Yeah.
283
00:13:18,564 --> 00:13:20,931
And I'm the second coming
of Hylees Lassie.
284
00:13:22,168 --> 00:13:23,294
Why don't you
tell your girlfriend
285
00:13:23,369 --> 00:13:25,667
to drop the lance
and maybe we'll talk.
286
00:13:25,738 --> 00:13:27,001
There are at least seven more
287
00:13:27,073 --> 00:13:28,837
just like him
in the side passages.
288
00:13:28,908 --> 00:13:32,401
Oh, man. Bostonians.
289
00:13:32,478 --> 00:13:34,606
Why do we always have to do this
the hard way?
290
00:13:35,748 --> 00:13:37,182
All right, on three.
291
00:13:37,650 --> 00:13:38,708
One,
292
00:13:38,785 --> 00:13:40,082
- two,
- BRENDAN: Seamus?
293
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:41,687
Brendan.
294
00:13:43,189 --> 00:13:44,156
Seamus.
295
00:13:45,958 --> 00:13:48,325
- Seamus.
- Brendan! Hey.
296
00:13:49,796 --> 00:13:51,525
Ah, it's good to see you, cuz-o.
297
00:13:51,597 --> 00:13:52,758
Likewise, likewise.
298
00:13:52,832 --> 00:13:54,891
Hey, Ozzie!
Come here. Everybody!
299
00:13:54,967 --> 00:13:55,957
Come here! Come here!
300
00:13:57,537 --> 00:14:00,006
I want you all to meet
my cousin,
301
00:14:00,506 --> 00:14:01,667
Seamus Harper.
302
00:14:02,508 --> 00:14:04,135
He's come down from the stars
303
00:14:04,777 --> 00:14:06,006
to set us all free.
304
00:14:07,780 --> 00:14:08,804
No pressure.
305
00:14:18,791 --> 00:14:20,782
The Nietzscheans
keep a pretty tight seal
306
00:14:20,860 --> 00:14:23,227
on the main living areas here.
307
00:14:23,296 --> 00:14:25,321
We don't get out much,
the Dragons don't come in much
308
00:14:25,398 --> 00:14:28,527
except when they send in
floaters to pick up more slaves.
309
00:14:29,469 --> 00:14:30,903
Since the war started,
they've been
310
00:14:30,970 --> 00:14:32,961
taking pretty much everybody
they can get their hands on.
311
00:14:33,039 --> 00:14:36,065
Little ones, old folks.
312
00:14:36,142 --> 00:14:37,576
Last week
they took Jake's mother
313
00:14:37,643 --> 00:14:39,042
over there
right off her death bed.
314
00:14:40,380 --> 00:14:42,178
Why would they take people
who can't work?
315
00:14:42,248 --> 00:14:47,379
Well, there are rumors
about resettlement centers.
316
00:14:47,820 --> 00:14:48,844
Death camps.
317
00:14:50,089 --> 00:14:51,215
But, um,
318
00:14:51,290 --> 00:14:52,849
we're gonna put a stop to all that,
319
00:14:52,925 --> 00:14:53,915
aren't we?
320
00:14:53,993 --> 00:14:54,983
Yeah.
321
00:14:55,061 --> 00:14:56,859
Yeah, of course.
322
00:14:56,929 --> 00:14:58,124
Look,
323
00:14:58,197 --> 00:15:00,393
we'll do what we can,
but we're just the advance team.
324
00:15:00,466 --> 00:15:03,367
The key is to force the Dragons
to commit their armored units.
325
00:15:03,436 --> 00:15:04,995
Once they're exposed,
the Andromeda will arrive
326
00:15:05,071 --> 00:15:06,266
and pick them off from orbit.
327
00:15:06,339 --> 00:15:08,239
Yeah, a lot of this is gonna
have to depend
328
00:15:08,307 --> 00:15:10,241
on your resistance fighters, Brendan.
329
00:15:10,309 --> 00:15:12,175
How many can you mobilize in Boston?
330
00:15:12,245 --> 00:15:14,612
Uh, well, you know, you...
331
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,614
You gotta realize
I expected you to show up
332
00:15:16,682 --> 00:15:18,411
with a lot more
company than just one,
333
00:15:18,484 --> 00:15:20,384
admittedly very attractive, woman.
334
00:15:20,453 --> 00:15:22,285
How many fighters, Brendan?
335
00:15:25,825 --> 00:15:28,089
Well, you're lookin'
at 'em, Seamus.
336
00:15:30,696 --> 00:15:32,596
You have five fighters?
337
00:15:32,665 --> 00:15:34,633
That I can count on, yeah.
338
00:15:34,700 --> 00:15:37,533
Look, they got friends,
and their friends have friends,
339
00:15:37,603 --> 00:15:39,264
and a lot of them claim to be
in the resistance,
340
00:15:39,338 --> 00:15:41,204
but how many people
can I get in the street?
341
00:15:41,274 --> 00:15:43,504
Especially before
your Dylan arrives?
342
00:15:43,576 --> 00:15:45,840
Like I said, five that I know of.
343
00:15:45,912 --> 00:15:47,437
That you know of.
344
00:15:47,513 --> 00:15:49,174
Brendan, why did you call us?
345
00:15:49,248 --> 00:15:50,477
What'd you expect?
346
00:15:52,018 --> 00:15:55,921
Well, what I expected was hope.
347
00:15:55,988 --> 00:15:58,013
How am I supposed to
give them hope?
348
00:15:58,090 --> 00:15:59,489
I know how hard their lives are.
349
00:15:59,559 --> 00:16:01,891
That's why I ran away
in the first place, remember?
350
00:16:04,030 --> 00:16:05,930
Harper, if we can't get
the local resistance
351
00:16:05,998 --> 00:16:08,160
organized in time
for Dylan's attack,
352
00:16:08,234 --> 00:16:11,363
our surgical strike will turn
into a bloody war.
353
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:16,236
I don't even know
where to start. What do I say?
354
00:16:16,976 --> 00:16:18,137
Say whatever it takes.
355
00:16:19,712 --> 00:16:22,181
All around the world,
people are ready
356
00:16:23,182 --> 00:16:24,445
ready to rise up.
357
00:16:25,218 --> 00:16:26,185
In, uh,
358
00:16:26,786 --> 00:16:27,753
In Paris,
359
00:16:28,588 --> 00:16:29,680
Tokyo,
360
00:16:29,755 --> 00:16:31,052
Singapore
361
00:16:31,123 --> 00:16:32,557
Uh, Johannesburg.
362
00:16:32,625 --> 00:16:34,059
In, uh, thousands
363
00:16:34,126 --> 00:16:36,026
in hundreds of thousands.
364
00:16:36,095 --> 00:16:39,656
And they're all waiting,
waiting for you.
365
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,195
Waiting for Boston,
366
00:16:43,803 --> 00:16:46,636
because this was where
it all began.
367
00:16:46,706 --> 00:16:49,641
Uh, the most important
revolution in the history of Earth
368
00:16:49,709 --> 00:16:51,234
started in Boston.
369
00:16:51,310 --> 00:16:54,302
The very idea that all people,
whether born
370
00:16:54,380 --> 00:16:57,782
or engineered, are equal
started in Boston.
371
00:16:57,850 --> 00:17:00,979
So now, it is
Boston's turn again.
372
00:17:01,053 --> 00:17:03,078
Time to show your courage.
373
00:17:03,155 --> 00:17:05,089
Time to storm the barricades.
374
00:17:05,157 --> 00:17:07,592
Time to fire a shot
that will be heard
375
00:17:07,660 --> 00:17:09,992
around the world for freedom.
376
00:17:10,062 --> 00:17:11,962
He's right, let's get the übers.
377
00:17:13,766 --> 00:17:15,530
Now's the time!
Freedom for Earth!
378
00:17:16,335 --> 00:17:17,860
For freedom!
379
00:17:17,937 --> 00:17:20,338
Freedom!
380
00:17:30,349 --> 00:17:31,976
I gotta hand it to you, cousin.
381
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:33,849
You really got 'em
believing in themselves
382
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:35,251
for the first time.
383
00:17:35,855 --> 00:17:37,345
It was a very good speech.
384
00:17:37,423 --> 00:17:38,913
Yeah.
385
00:17:38,991 --> 00:17:42,552
Tokyo, Paris, Johannesburg,
Singapore sure.
386
00:17:42,628 --> 00:17:44,118
There's only one problem.
387
00:17:44,196 --> 00:17:45,630
It's all a lie.
388
00:17:46,699 --> 00:17:47,791
Come on, Dylan.
389
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:11,556
Correct me if I'm wrong,
but are we actually winning?
390
00:18:11,624 --> 00:18:13,023
The Jaguars are holding
our center.
391
00:18:13,092 --> 00:18:15,823
The Castalians have routed
the Dragons' left flank.
392
00:18:15,895 --> 00:18:17,329
The enemy is in full retreat.
393
00:18:18,230 --> 00:18:19,755
Go, fish men, go.
394
00:18:19,832 --> 00:18:21,800
If this continues,
there'll soon be nothing between us
395
00:18:21,867 --> 00:18:23,835
and the Dragon homeworld
but open slip routes.
396
00:18:23,903 --> 00:18:25,667
Yes, how convenient.
397
00:18:25,738 --> 00:18:26,830
Too easy?
398
00:18:26,906 --> 00:18:27,930
Much.
399
00:18:28,774 --> 00:18:31,266
Andromeda, hail all allied
commanders.
400
00:18:31,344 --> 00:18:32,834
I'm standing down the assault.
401
00:18:32,912 --> 00:18:33,879
Aye, aye!
402
00:18:34,914 --> 00:18:36,882
How's your friend doing?
403
00:18:36,949 --> 00:18:38,644
Well, she's already hidden
recon eyes
404
00:18:38,718 --> 00:18:39,913
all over the ghetto.
405
00:18:39,986 --> 00:18:41,681
Now, all she has to do
is plant plasma mines
406
00:18:41,754 --> 00:18:43,483
outside the armory.
407
00:18:43,556 --> 00:18:45,081
- The armory?
- Yeah.
408
00:18:45,157 --> 00:18:46,147
No, no, no, no, no.
409
00:18:46,225 --> 00:18:47,317
She shouldn't go anywhere
near the armory.
410
00:18:47,393 --> 00:18:48,383
They're gonna see her.
411
00:18:48,461 --> 00:18:49,451
Rommie?
412
00:18:49,528 --> 00:18:50,996
Not freakin' likely.
413
00:18:51,063 --> 00:18:52,121
How do you know?
414
00:18:53,032 --> 00:18:54,966
Uh, let's just say I, uh,
415
00:18:55,034 --> 00:18:56,900
made her what she is today.
416
00:19:00,473 --> 00:19:03,408
So, uh, you guys serious?
417
00:19:04,276 --> 00:19:05,368
I wish.
418
00:19:06,078 --> 00:19:07,136
You know how it is.
419
00:19:07,213 --> 00:19:09,648
We're too busy flying around
saving the universe.
420
00:19:11,350 --> 00:19:12,340
Yeah.
421
00:19:12,418 --> 00:19:13,408
Well,
422
00:19:13,486 --> 00:19:16,012
just remember
what you're saving it for.
423
00:19:16,856 --> 00:19:18,017
Her
424
00:19:18,090 --> 00:19:19,615
and all that's good
in the world.
425
00:19:22,395 --> 00:19:23,453
I got something for you.
426
00:19:25,531 --> 00:19:26,498
I've been saving it.
427
00:19:26,866 --> 00:19:27,833
Here.
428
00:19:29,001 --> 00:19:30,264
It's your old tin whistle.
429
00:19:33,172 --> 00:19:34,936
No, no, no, no. I, uh,
430
00:19:35,007 --> 00:19:35,997
I threw this--
431
00:19:36,075 --> 00:19:37,042
Into your parents' grave.
432
00:19:38,177 --> 00:19:39,144
Yeah, you did.
433
00:19:40,413 --> 00:19:41,505
I pulled it out for you.
434
00:19:42,415 --> 00:19:43,382
I been saving it.
435
00:19:46,052 --> 00:19:47,019
You know,
436
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:50,020
for when you're ready
to play it again.
437
00:19:53,159 --> 00:19:54,684
Simply point the lance,
438
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:55,818
press the trigger.
439
00:19:57,830 --> 00:20:00,026
The computer targeting system
will do the rest.
440
00:20:00,099 --> 00:20:01,658
Now, if you find yourself
up in close
441
00:20:01,734 --> 00:20:03,224
and you want to do
a lot of damage,
442
00:20:03,302 --> 00:20:04,827
you can switch to plasma blasts,
443
00:20:04,904 --> 00:20:05,996
Here.
444
00:20:06,072 --> 00:20:07,733
Now, when you return
to your cell members,
445
00:20:07,807 --> 00:20:09,297
authorize them
to use your lance,
446
00:20:09,375 --> 00:20:11,844
so if you go down,
someone else can use it.
447
00:20:11,911 --> 00:20:12,878
Questions?
448
00:20:13,679 --> 00:20:16,114
Bracers, for communication.
449
00:20:16,182 --> 00:20:18,844
ECM Generators. Wear them both.
450
00:20:18,918 --> 00:20:20,386
And remember,
451
00:20:20,453 --> 00:20:23,912
a Molotov cocktail
will still burn a floater.
452
00:20:23,989 --> 00:20:26,481
So wait until they hit
the barricades,
453
00:20:26,559 --> 00:20:28,653
and then throw
as many as you can.
454
00:20:28,728 --> 00:20:29,991
Oh, yeah, one more thing.
455
00:20:32,965 --> 00:20:33,989
Shrillers.
456
00:20:34,066 --> 00:20:35,090
Cool.
457
00:20:35,167 --> 00:20:36,259
Enough for everybody.
458
00:20:36,335 --> 00:20:37,564
I'll take one.
459
00:20:38,637 --> 00:20:40,571
You know, these toys
are great, but,
460
00:20:40,639 --> 00:20:43,540
what if you give the signal
and no one rises up but us?
461
00:20:43,609 --> 00:20:45,077
Yeah, what happens then?
462
00:20:45,144 --> 00:20:47,044
The Nietzscheans will be
all over us.
463
00:20:47,113 --> 00:20:48,205
Why are you here, Ozzie?
464
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:49,406
You know why.
465
00:20:50,649 --> 00:20:51,639
Kathy.
466
00:20:54,854 --> 00:20:56,117
We all got a Kathy
467
00:20:57,256 --> 00:20:58,246
at least one.
468
00:20:59,792 --> 00:21:00,759
My sister,
469
00:21:02,194 --> 00:21:03,491
Seamus' parents,
470
00:21:03,963 --> 00:21:05,124
Colin's kids.
471
00:21:07,399 --> 00:21:08,924
We've all lost someone.
472
00:21:10,136 --> 00:21:11,865
Now you remind people of that,
473
00:21:13,305 --> 00:21:14,966
and you'll have no problem
getting them
474
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:16,235
to fight by your side.
475
00:21:22,915 --> 00:21:24,110
For Kathy.
476
00:21:35,528 --> 00:21:38,554
The Dragon slave caravan
is on its way into the ghetto.
477
00:21:38,631 --> 00:21:41,692
Damn! There are a lot more
of them than we expected.
478
00:21:41,767 --> 00:21:43,394
They must be reinforcing
their positions
479
00:21:43,469 --> 00:21:44,459
because of the war.
480
00:21:44,537 --> 00:21:46,164
No plan of battle ever survives
481
00:21:46,238 --> 00:21:48,002
the first engagement
with the enemy.
482
00:21:48,073 --> 00:21:50,098
What if Ozzie was right, Rommie?
483
00:21:50,176 --> 00:21:51,610
What if the people
in the streets
484
00:21:51,677 --> 00:21:53,111
won't rise up and join us?
485
00:21:53,179 --> 00:21:54,806
Then we lose.
486
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,815
But if we do nothing,
we still lose,
487
00:21:57,883 --> 00:22:00,113
and we may never have
an opportunity like this again.
488
00:22:01,654 --> 00:22:03,247
Yo, cousin.
489
00:22:03,322 --> 00:22:05,347
Transports are in position.
What's the word?
490
00:22:06,926 --> 00:22:07,916
Uh...
491
00:22:07,993 --> 00:22:08,983
the word is...
492
00:22:09,061 --> 00:22:10,119
um...
493
00:22:13,632 --> 00:22:14,622
Attack.
494
00:22:23,375 --> 00:22:24,809
Attack! Attack! Attack!
495
00:22:25,311 --> 00:22:26,642
Go! Go! Go!
496
00:22:38,390 --> 00:22:39,755
You in the back! Come on!
497
00:22:39,825 --> 00:22:40,883
Move! Move!
498
00:22:45,231 --> 00:22:47,791
Go! Over the wall!
Over the wall!
499
00:22:48,801 --> 00:22:49,996
Go! Go!
500
00:22:55,808 --> 00:22:57,833
Go! Go! Go!
501
00:23:01,614 --> 00:23:02,547
Ozzie!
502
00:23:03,349 --> 00:23:04,339
Floater!
503
00:23:04,416 --> 00:23:05,713
Throw the Molotovs!
504
00:23:05,784 --> 00:23:07,582
Throw 'em! Throw 'em!
Throw 'em!
505
00:23:20,799 --> 00:23:22,767
Seamus, we're being overrun.
506
00:23:25,271 --> 00:23:26,534
Seamus, what do I do?
507
00:23:26,605 --> 00:23:27,595
Fall back.
508
00:23:27,673 --> 00:23:30,040
Fall back to rally points
three and seven.
509
00:23:30,576 --> 00:23:32,066
Fall back!
510
00:23:32,144 --> 00:23:34,442
More Dragons are moving
to intercept.
511
00:23:34,513 --> 00:23:35,571
They're outnumbered.
512
00:23:35,648 --> 00:23:38,083
If Dylan doesn't get here
soon, we're all dead.
513
00:23:38,150 --> 00:23:39,117
Fall back!
514
00:23:42,955 --> 00:23:44,616
So, every bit of evidence
we've got
515
00:23:44,690 --> 00:23:46,658
suggests that these ships
we've been defeating
516
00:23:46,725 --> 00:23:47,886
aren't really real.
517
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,554
They're just empty hulls
equipped with slipstream drives.
518
00:23:51,931 --> 00:23:53,865
I don't care
if they're Dragon schoolchildren
519
00:23:53,933 --> 00:23:55,401
on a summer picnic,
520
00:23:55,467 --> 00:23:57,595
a victory is a victory.
521
00:23:57,670 --> 00:23:59,502
It's a victory the Dragons
want us to have.
522
00:23:59,571 --> 00:24:00,936
They could be using these ships
523
00:24:01,006 --> 00:24:02,235
to mask the size
of their real fleet.
524
00:24:02,308 --> 00:24:04,072
Or distract us while they move
somewhere else.
525
00:24:04,143 --> 00:24:06,635
What they're doing
doesn't matter.
526
00:24:06,712 --> 00:24:10,307
So long as we attack,
we drive the action.
527
00:24:10,382 --> 00:24:13,818
In love, in war,
in politics, the day
528
00:24:13,886 --> 00:24:17,516
and the night always
belongs to the aggressor.
529
00:24:17,589 --> 00:24:19,683
I will not lead this fleet
into a trap.
530
00:24:20,059 --> 00:24:21,322
We pull back,
531
00:24:21,393 --> 00:24:22,383
make them follow us
532
00:24:22,461 --> 00:24:23,656
so that we can pick
the next battle.
533
00:24:24,730 --> 00:24:27,461
A nice idea,
but it won't be possible.
534
00:24:27,533 --> 00:24:29,865
And why exactly is that?
535
00:24:30,302 --> 00:24:31,292
Captain,
536
00:24:31,370 --> 00:24:33,668
the Sabra-Jaguar fleet
is attacking the Dragons.
537
00:24:35,107 --> 00:24:36,199
Brendan, come in.
538
00:24:36,275 --> 00:24:37,936
Brendan, report.
539
00:24:38,010 --> 00:24:39,409
His signal's been cut off.
540
00:24:40,946 --> 00:24:41,936
All right, that's it.
541
00:24:42,014 --> 00:24:43,846
Rommie, monitor things here.
I'll be back.
542
00:24:43,916 --> 00:24:45,111
What are you doing?
543
00:24:45,184 --> 00:24:47,243
Brendan's family, Rommie.
544
00:24:47,319 --> 00:24:49,583
I abandoned him here once,
I'm not gonna do it again.
545
00:24:54,126 --> 00:24:56,185
You know that by attacking
the Dragons now,
546
00:24:56,261 --> 00:24:57,490
you're forcing Dylan's hand.
547
00:24:57,563 --> 00:24:59,429
He's forced my hand before.
548
00:24:59,498 --> 00:25:00,829
I'm simply returning the favor.
549
00:25:00,899 --> 00:25:02,367
You have no right
to come aboard--
550
00:25:02,434 --> 00:25:04,334
No. You have no right.
551
00:25:04,403 --> 00:25:06,098
We may have shared
the same position
552
00:25:06,171 --> 00:25:07,536
in Dylan's bed, human,
553
00:25:07,606 --> 00:25:10,166
but don't presume
that makes us equals.
554
00:25:10,242 --> 00:25:11,403
You slept with Dylan?
555
00:25:12,244 --> 00:25:13,643
He didn't tell you?
556
00:25:13,712 --> 00:25:15,202
You really should keep
better track
557
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,510
of your lovers and not let them
stray so far.
558
00:25:17,583 --> 00:25:18,982
Dylan and I aren't lovers.
559
00:25:19,051 --> 00:25:20,018
Really?
560
00:25:20,586 --> 00:25:21,781
Too bad for you.
561
00:25:24,289 --> 00:25:25,279
Rommie,
562
00:25:25,357 --> 00:25:26,518
what was that?
563
00:25:26,592 --> 00:25:28,526
Some kind of
gravitational distortion.
564
00:25:29,194 --> 00:25:30,457
Dylan,
565
00:25:30,529 --> 00:25:32,588
the Dragon ships are firing
their slipstream cores.
566
00:25:33,699 --> 00:25:35,667
Andromeda, tell the fleet
to scatter.
567
00:25:35,734 --> 00:25:36,758
And get us to slipstream.
568
00:25:36,835 --> 00:25:37,893
My ships.
569
00:25:37,970 --> 00:25:39,836
Are in trouble.
So are we.
570
00:25:39,905 --> 00:25:41,100
They're exploding.
571
00:25:42,374 --> 00:25:43,307
Brace for impact.
572
00:25:53,352 --> 00:25:54,581
It's like a whirlpool.
573
00:25:54,653 --> 00:25:55,518
We're going in.
574
00:26:05,030 --> 00:26:06,156
Wait.
575
00:26:06,231 --> 00:26:07,562
Are either of you
576
00:26:07,633 --> 00:26:10,159
related to any of the übers
I waxed today?
577
00:26:12,638 --> 00:26:14,333
'Cause it was a lot of fun.
578
00:26:33,325 --> 00:26:34,315
Brendan.
579
00:26:34,393 --> 00:26:35,883
You okay?
580
00:26:35,961 --> 00:26:37,326
There's too many of them,
Seamus.
581
00:26:38,764 --> 00:26:39,925
Their armor's mobilizing.
582
00:26:40,666 --> 00:26:41,997
I gotta get back outside.
583
00:26:42,067 --> 00:26:43,228
Whoa, no.
584
00:26:44,570 --> 00:26:46,834
You're coming with me.
You need medical attention.
585
00:26:46,905 --> 00:26:48,430
Your Commonwealth friends
586
00:26:48,507 --> 00:26:50,134
better get here soon, Seamus.
587
00:27:04,423 --> 00:27:06,152
Andromeda, where are we?
588
00:27:06,225 --> 00:27:08,421
Kraylux.
Somewhere in the outer system.
589
00:27:08,494 --> 00:27:10,258
Status on the rest of the fleet?
590
00:27:10,329 --> 00:27:14,061
Scattered halfway across
the Orion arm, I would assume.
591
00:27:14,133 --> 00:27:16,067
We appear to be the only ship
in this system.
592
00:27:16,135 --> 00:27:17,694
Correction. The only Ally ship.
593
00:27:20,372 --> 00:27:21,840
The Dragons just joined us.
594
00:27:21,907 --> 00:27:22,999
Battle stations.
595
00:27:30,516 --> 00:27:32,109
It's no good.
I can't shake 'em.
596
00:27:32,184 --> 00:27:33,481
Dylan, we're being hailed
597
00:27:33,552 --> 00:27:35,577
by someone called
Fleet Admiral Cuatemoc.
598
00:27:35,654 --> 00:27:37,622
So Temmy finally got
his promotion.
599
00:27:37,689 --> 00:27:38,850
Tell me about him.
600
00:27:38,924 --> 00:27:40,517
Cuatemoc's a high ranking Dragon.
601
00:27:40,592 --> 00:27:42,822
He's married to Charlemagne's
sister, Beatricia.
602
00:27:42,895 --> 00:27:44,556
The Jaguars had hoped
that the marriage
603
00:27:44,630 --> 00:27:46,325
would bring peace
between the prides.
604
00:27:46,398 --> 00:27:48,366
This doesn't look like peace.
605
00:27:48,433 --> 00:27:50,492
If Beatricia
is anything like her brother,
606
00:27:50,569 --> 00:27:52,503
I can guess at the problem.
607
00:27:52,571 --> 00:27:54,596
No one profited from their union
608
00:27:54,673 --> 00:27:56,368
especially not the Jaguars.
609
00:27:56,441 --> 00:27:59,035
A gilded peahen
can't tame a bear.
610
00:27:59,111 --> 00:28:00,340
A bear?
611
00:28:00,412 --> 00:28:01,607
Good. Put him through.
612
00:28:02,481 --> 00:28:03,642
Ah,
613
00:28:03,715 --> 00:28:06,047
the famous Captain Hunt.
614
00:28:07,085 --> 00:28:08,382
Fleet Admiral Cuatemoc.
615
00:28:08,453 --> 00:28:10,319
What happened
to your predecessor,
616
00:28:10,389 --> 00:28:11,379
Cuchulain?
617
00:28:11,456 --> 00:28:13,925
He lost one too many battles to you.
618
00:28:13,992 --> 00:28:15,892
I don't plan on making
the same mistake.
619
00:28:15,961 --> 00:28:17,395
You know, a plan of battle
620
00:28:17,462 --> 00:28:20,022
rarely survives the first
engagement with the enemy.
621
00:28:20,933 --> 00:28:21,923
Mine do.
622
00:28:23,101 --> 00:28:24,591
Hello, Elssbett.
623
00:28:24,670 --> 00:28:27,105
Charlie off
getting his pedicure?
624
00:28:27,172 --> 00:28:29,266
Tell him Bea sends her regards.
625
00:28:30,008 --> 00:28:30,975
Here's mine.
626
00:28:37,316 --> 00:28:38,340
In-laws.
627
00:28:38,417 --> 00:28:39,441
Beka,
628
00:28:39,518 --> 00:28:40,508
slipstream. Now.
629
00:28:42,754 --> 00:28:44,722
Multiple fractures,
internal bleeding, and,
630
00:28:44,790 --> 00:28:46,155
yeah, a concussion.
631
00:28:46,225 --> 00:28:48,455
Just do something about it, will ya?
632
00:28:48,527 --> 00:28:50,962
You can tell all that
just by looking at me?
633
00:28:51,029 --> 00:28:52,963
Yeah, Rommie's, uh,
full of surprises.
634
00:28:53,031 --> 00:28:54,430
Lucky for you.
635
00:28:54,499 --> 00:28:56,263
While you were off
on your little adventure,
636
00:28:56,335 --> 00:28:58,133
I hacked into
the Dragon communications grid
637
00:28:58,203 --> 00:29:00,968
and broadcast news
of the revolt.
638
00:29:01,039 --> 00:29:02,507
The people of Earth
are rising up.
639
00:29:05,010 --> 00:29:06,000
Paris?
640
00:29:06,078 --> 00:29:07,068
Tokyo?
641
00:29:07,145 --> 00:29:09,341
Even Johannesburg.
642
00:29:09,414 --> 00:29:12,145
And here I thought you were lying
about Johannesburg.
643
00:29:12,217 --> 00:29:14,584
I started lying the minute
I opened my mouth.
644
00:29:14,653 --> 00:29:16,314
What about the armored
divisions?
645
00:29:16,388 --> 00:29:17,822
Mobilizing worldwide.
646
00:29:17,889 --> 00:29:20,381
They should be fully exposed
when Dylan arrives
647
00:29:20,459 --> 00:29:22,154
in five hours
and twenty-one minutes.
648
00:29:23,128 --> 00:29:24,186
Thanks, cousin.
649
00:29:35,540 --> 00:29:36,939
They're still right behind us.
650
00:29:37,909 --> 00:29:38,876
Now what?
651
00:29:39,044 --> 00:29:40,136
Now we
652
00:29:40,212 --> 00:29:42,340
round up the fleet
and fight our way free.
653
00:29:42,414 --> 00:29:44,178
There are over thirty systems
in this cluster
654
00:29:44,249 --> 00:29:46,013
and the Alliance fleet
is scattered all over it.
655
00:29:46,084 --> 00:29:47,518
Searching will take time.
656
00:29:47,586 --> 00:29:49,611
What about Harper and Rommie?
What about Earth?
657
00:29:49,688 --> 00:29:51,213
If the Dragons
destroy our fleet,
658
00:29:51,290 --> 00:29:52,519
the war is over.
659
00:29:52,591 --> 00:29:54,150
We have to regroup,
regardless of the cost.
660
00:30:01,099 --> 00:30:02,191
Where is Dylan?
661
00:30:02,267 --> 00:30:04,133
The Dragon armor units
are killing us.
662
00:30:04,202 --> 00:30:05,636
He should be here soon.
663
00:30:05,704 --> 00:30:06,694
That's what you said
an hour ago.
664
00:30:06,772 --> 00:30:08,331
He's ninety minutes late.
665
00:30:09,441 --> 00:30:11,307
Slipstream isn't always
that precise.
666
00:30:11,376 --> 00:30:12,707
He could have been delayed.
667
00:30:12,778 --> 00:30:13,939
Delayed where?
668
00:30:14,012 --> 00:30:16,606
If he were in the system
he would've contacted us by now.
669
00:30:16,682 --> 00:30:18,446
Not if he's maintaining
communications...
670
00:30:20,185 --> 00:30:21,778
Hang on a second,
I'm getting a signal.
671
00:30:21,853 --> 00:30:22,911
A signal?
672
00:30:24,056 --> 00:30:25,023
From a slipfighter.
673
00:30:25,757 --> 00:30:26,918
A slipfighter?
674
00:30:29,394 --> 00:30:30,418
It's Tyr.
675
00:30:32,597 --> 00:30:34,326
What do you mean
he's not coming?
676
00:30:34,399 --> 00:30:35,798
He had to choose
677
00:30:35,867 --> 00:30:37,767
Save his fleet
and his entire alliance,
678
00:30:37,836 --> 00:30:40,362
or sacrifice them both
to liberate a single slave world.
679
00:30:40,439 --> 00:30:42,305
But Dylan always keeps
his promises.
680
00:30:42,374 --> 00:30:43,967
Dylan has made
a great many promises,
681
00:30:44,042 --> 00:30:45,476
and he only has one ship.
682
00:30:47,212 --> 00:30:48,338
Now,
683
00:30:48,413 --> 00:30:50,142
try and get the people
out of the streets.
684
00:30:52,184 --> 00:30:53,276
There'll be another time.
685
00:30:53,352 --> 00:30:54,285
Another time?
686
00:30:55,987 --> 00:30:58,752
I'm just supposed to stop
a revolution?
687
00:30:58,824 --> 00:31:00,952
There are people bleeding
and dying in the streets
688
00:31:01,026 --> 00:31:02,653
because they actually think
they may have a chance
689
00:31:02,728 --> 00:31:04,025
to win for a change.
690
00:31:04,096 --> 00:31:05,996
How am I supposed to tell them
they're wrong?
691
00:31:06,331 --> 00:31:07,298
Don't.
692
00:31:09,801 --> 00:31:11,098
Tell them the truth.
693
00:31:11,603 --> 00:31:12,570
Tell them...
694
00:31:14,005 --> 00:31:16,235
that life is inherently unfair
695
00:31:16,308 --> 00:31:18,606
and that the wise only fight battles
they know they can win.
696
00:31:18,677 --> 00:31:20,008
Great.
697
00:31:20,078 --> 00:31:22,274
And when I'm telling them
all of this, where will you be?
698
00:31:22,347 --> 00:31:24,145
As far away from here
as I can get.
699
00:31:24,616 --> 00:31:25,583
Thanks.
700
00:31:30,055 --> 00:31:31,853
I'm not going to
stand down the attack
701
00:31:31,923 --> 00:31:33,618
just 'cause your Nietzschean said so.
702
00:31:33,692 --> 00:31:35,456
He's not the one saying it.
I am.
703
00:31:35,527 --> 00:31:37,291
Oh? Oh, yeah?
Like that's any better.
704
00:31:37,362 --> 00:31:41,128
Stand down. Retreat. So speaks
Seamus Harper, as usual.
705
00:31:41,199 --> 00:31:43,065
As usual? Whoa! Hold it!
706
00:31:44,002 --> 00:31:46,027
Are you calling me a coward?
707
00:31:46,104 --> 00:31:48,471
Well,
you walked away once, Seamus.
708
00:31:48,540 --> 00:31:50,634
You abandoned your home.
You abandoned your family.
709
00:31:50,709 --> 00:31:52,700
For what? Why?
Did it get too hard for you?
710
00:31:52,778 --> 00:31:53,768
I don't know
what that makes you,
711
00:31:53,845 --> 00:31:54,903
but you're sure no hero.
712
00:31:54,980 --> 00:31:57,608
My family died here,
in case you forgot.
713
00:31:57,682 --> 00:31:59,514
Because my father
didn't know how to walk away
714
00:31:59,584 --> 00:32:00,745
from a fight he couldn't win.
715
00:32:00,819 --> 00:32:02,753
He was protecting your mother.
716
00:32:02,821 --> 00:32:04,186
Whatever! And now
they're both dead.
717
00:32:04,256 --> 00:32:06,418
And you'll be dead, too,
if you don't listen to me.
718
00:32:06,491 --> 00:32:08,550
No, no, Seamus, you see,
you don't understand.
719
00:32:08,627 --> 00:32:12,086
You can't just choose when you
want to fight and when you don't.
720
00:32:12,164 --> 00:32:14,098
You may think your father
had a choice that day,
721
00:32:14,166 --> 00:32:15,691
but he didn't.
722
00:32:15,767 --> 00:32:16,859
And neither do I.
723
00:32:17,736 --> 00:32:18,828
So we fight.
724
00:32:19,971 --> 00:32:22,269
All right, let me put this another way.
725
00:32:23,742 --> 00:32:25,210
Tell them to withdraw,
726
00:32:26,845 --> 00:32:28,244
or I swear I'll kill you.
727
00:32:33,718 --> 00:32:35,015
You gonna kill me?
728
00:32:35,086 --> 00:32:36,576
If you don't listen to me.
729
00:32:36,655 --> 00:32:38,214
It'll stop millions of people
from dying
730
00:32:38,290 --> 00:32:40,759
unnecessarily in a war
they can't win.
731
00:32:41,726 --> 00:32:42,921
Will it.
732
00:32:42,994 --> 00:32:44,723
They don't have a chance,
Brendan.
733
00:32:45,297 --> 00:32:46,560
I know they don't.
734
00:32:46,631 --> 00:32:48,599
They know that, too.
735
00:32:48,667 --> 00:32:50,226
They knew it when this all started.
736
00:32:50,302 --> 00:32:51,997
When I started this,
things were different.
737
00:32:52,070 --> 00:32:53,834
The circumstances have changed.
738
00:32:53,905 --> 00:32:55,600
Did you think
you were the first person
739
00:32:55,674 --> 00:32:59,304
to stand on a rooftop and shout
that the Nietzscheans had to go?
740
00:32:59,377 --> 00:33:02,904
These people have heard
it all before, Seamus.
741
00:33:02,981 --> 00:33:05,814
Hell, our fathers heard it,
and their fathers before them.
742
00:33:05,884 --> 00:33:07,374
If that's true,
then why did they listen?
743
00:33:07,452 --> 00:33:09,420
Why are they
all out there fighting now?
744
00:33:09,488 --> 00:33:10,751
Why did your father fight
745
00:33:10,822 --> 00:33:13,257
when the slavers came
for your mother?
746
00:33:13,325 --> 00:33:16,090
Because he was a fool.
Would you shut up about my father.
747
00:33:16,161 --> 00:33:19,256
He fought because he was sick
of lying down for them.
748
00:33:21,199 --> 00:33:23,725
Because he was sick
of being spat at,
749
00:33:23,802 --> 00:33:25,133
laughed at,
750
00:33:25,203 --> 00:33:26,602
stolen from,
751
00:33:26,671 --> 00:33:28,332
and beaten.
752
00:33:28,406 --> 00:33:31,603
Sick and tired of living in fear
and desperation.
753
00:33:31,676 --> 00:33:35,044
So tired that he was willing
to give up his life
754
00:33:35,113 --> 00:33:36,444
so long as he hurt them.
755
00:33:36,515 --> 00:33:38,279
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they laughed at him
756
00:33:38,350 --> 00:33:40,375
right up until they slit
his throat. And after.
757
00:33:40,986 --> 00:33:41,953
That's true.
758
00:33:42,888 --> 00:33:43,855
But in the end,
759
00:33:44,389 --> 00:33:45,379
he laughed back.
760
00:33:45,457 --> 00:33:46,982
We both heard it, Seamus.
761
00:33:47,492 --> 00:33:48,459
He fought.
762
00:33:49,461 --> 00:33:51,725
He finally fought.
763
00:33:51,796 --> 00:33:53,924
And after that,
nothing else mattered.
764
00:33:53,999 --> 00:33:55,296
Yeah, especially not to him.
765
00:33:55,367 --> 00:33:56,664
Seamus, you gotta let it go.
766
00:33:56,735 --> 00:33:58,225
I don't have to let squat go!
767
00:33:58,303 --> 00:33:59,737
You don't know
what you're talking about!
768
00:33:59,804 --> 00:34:01,738
You don't even know
what happened!
769
00:34:01,806 --> 00:34:03,365
You wanna know
what really happened?
770
00:34:03,441 --> 00:34:07,400
They didn't come for my mother.
They came for me, okay.
771
00:34:07,479 --> 00:34:10,107
They both died because of me.
772
00:34:15,487 --> 00:34:16,784
I'm sorry, Seamus.
773
00:34:18,823 --> 00:34:20,052
But don't you see?
774
00:34:21,826 --> 00:34:24,158
This just proves
what I'm talkin' about.
775
00:34:25,964 --> 00:34:26,954
Your mother
776
00:34:27,032 --> 00:34:28,227
and your father
777
00:34:28,300 --> 00:34:30,166
did not die for nothing.
778
00:34:30,235 --> 00:34:31,930
They sacrificed themselves
779
00:34:32,437 --> 00:34:33,666
to save you,
780
00:34:34,139 --> 00:34:35,664
their only son,
781
00:34:35,740 --> 00:34:38,334
and it worked.
They won.
782
00:34:38,410 --> 00:34:42,005
If you really want what happened
to my parents to be worth it, Brendan,
783
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,071
then stop the revolt.
784
00:34:45,283 --> 00:34:47,274
I would, Seamus.
For you, I would.
785
00:34:48,620 --> 00:34:49,587
I can't.
786
00:34:50,555 --> 00:34:52,114
A revolution's not like a switch.
787
00:34:52,190 --> 00:34:53,624
You can't turn it on or off.
788
00:34:54,593 --> 00:34:55,560
It's like a fire.
789
00:34:56,828 --> 00:34:58,796
And once it's lit,
790
00:34:58,863 --> 00:35:01,059
you can't put it out no matter
how much you might want to.
791
00:35:01,132 --> 00:35:02,998
And even if we could,
if I did...
792
00:35:04,603 --> 00:35:05,764
it might never light again.
793
00:35:05,837 --> 00:35:06,827
All right.
794
00:35:06,905 --> 00:35:07,895
Well, what about you, then?
795
00:35:07,973 --> 00:35:09,634
Just let me get you out of here.
796
00:35:09,708 --> 00:35:11,233
That's the thing, cousin.
797
00:35:13,211 --> 00:35:14,508
I'm part of the fire.
798
00:35:17,415 --> 00:35:18,439
I need to be.
799
00:35:37,769 --> 00:35:39,362
You kick some butt out there.
800
00:35:58,957 --> 00:36:00,220
According to my captains,
801
00:36:00,291 --> 00:36:03,420
we've rounded up almost 90 percent
of our original fleet.
802
00:36:03,495 --> 00:36:06,430
Unfortunately, only half of them
can still fight.
803
00:36:06,498 --> 00:36:08,432
The Dragon fleet is closing.
804
00:36:08,500 --> 00:36:10,229
Uh, Dylan, now would be the time
805
00:36:10,301 --> 00:36:13,396
for one of those crazy, desperate,
this just might work, ideas.
806
00:36:13,471 --> 00:36:14,996
Well, I've got one.
807
00:36:15,073 --> 00:36:16,598
I was just hoping
I wouldn't have to use it.
808
00:36:16,675 --> 00:36:19,235
How about sharing your thoughts
with your loyal allies?
809
00:36:19,310 --> 00:36:20,471
I've got a better idea.
810
00:36:20,545 --> 00:36:21,671
We'll do a demonstration
811
00:36:21,746 --> 00:36:24,477
from the finest slipstream pilot
in the known worlds.
812
00:36:25,750 --> 00:36:26,740
Oh!
813
00:36:26,818 --> 00:36:27,944
Oh, that'd be me.
814
00:36:29,020 --> 00:36:30,920
Set a course
for Coolidge system.
815
00:36:30,989 --> 00:36:32,889
The system where we were
ambushed?
816
00:36:32,957 --> 00:36:35,551
Dylan, that system
is completely unnavigable.
817
00:36:35,627 --> 00:36:37,595
When the Dragons fired
their slipstream cores,
818
00:36:37,662 --> 00:36:39,460
they collapsed
slipstream into normal space.
819
00:36:39,531 --> 00:36:42,159
Flying through there would be
like diving into a hurricane.
820
00:36:42,233 --> 00:36:43,291
We'd be torn to shreds
821
00:36:43,368 --> 00:36:45,393
unless we did it perfectly.
822
00:36:45,470 --> 00:36:47,768
Well, that is where
Beka comes in.
823
00:36:47,839 --> 00:36:51,104
You know, I think I changed my mind
about this whole crazy, desperate thing.
824
00:36:51,176 --> 00:36:53,076
This is idiotic.
For your plan to work,
825
00:36:53,144 --> 00:36:57,103
every ship in the fleet would have
to navigate the vortices on their own.
826
00:36:57,182 --> 00:36:59,674
They're not all blessed
with a Beka Valentine.
827
00:36:59,751 --> 00:37:00,912
Luckily, we only need one.
828
00:37:01,653 --> 00:37:03,519
We'll fly in fleet formation
829
00:37:03,588 --> 00:37:06,114
keep within a few thousand kilometers
of each other to minimize lag-time.
830
00:37:06,191 --> 00:37:07,920
We'll slave the other ships'
navigational systems
831
00:37:07,992 --> 00:37:10,859
to Andromeda's and let Beka
pilot them all.
832
00:37:10,929 --> 00:37:13,023
Which means
if she makes a mistake,
833
00:37:13,098 --> 00:37:15,192
every ship in the fleet
will crash.
834
00:37:16,034 --> 00:37:17,001
Yeah.
835
00:37:17,569 --> 00:37:19,230
Note to self:
836
00:37:19,304 --> 00:37:20,271
Don't screw up.
837
00:37:30,582 --> 00:37:31,572
Goodbye, again.
838
00:37:41,493 --> 00:37:42,892
Cuatemoc is hailing us.
839
00:37:42,961 --> 00:37:43,985
Put him through.
840
00:37:45,463 --> 00:37:47,431
Argosy fleet formation.
841
00:37:48,333 --> 00:37:49,960
Interesting historical
reenactment,
842
00:37:50,034 --> 00:37:52,594
for all the good it'll do.
We can still follow you.
843
00:37:52,670 --> 00:37:54,866
Anything to escape your wife?
844
00:37:54,939 --> 00:37:56,634
You are welcome
to follow us, admiral.
845
00:37:56,708 --> 00:37:57,903
In fact, I encourage it.
846
00:37:57,976 --> 00:38:00,445
Or at least I encourage you
to try.
847
00:38:00,512 --> 00:38:02,537
Beka, course laid in
for Coolidge?
848
00:38:02,614 --> 00:38:03,945
You betcha.
849
00:38:04,015 --> 00:38:05,005
Coolidge?
850
00:38:05,083 --> 00:38:06,278
Impossible.
851
00:38:06,351 --> 00:38:08,183
You'll be torn to shreds.
852
00:38:08,253 --> 00:38:10,221
Trying to run through there
is suicide.
853
00:38:10,288 --> 00:38:12,450
You didn't talk
to Cuchulain about me
854
00:38:12,524 --> 00:38:14,185
before you had him executed, did you?
855
00:38:15,393 --> 00:38:16,383
No?
856
00:38:16,461 --> 00:38:17,292
Well that's too bad.
857
00:38:18,630 --> 00:38:20,098
I wonder who's next in line.
858
00:38:21,499 --> 00:38:22,466
Go.
859
00:38:34,112 --> 00:38:35,773
Come on, Valentine, you can do it.
860
00:38:36,447 --> 00:38:37,414
You can do it.
861
00:39:07,412 --> 00:39:08,379
You did it.
862
00:39:09,447 --> 00:39:10,846
Yes!
863
00:39:10,915 --> 00:39:12,508
Dylan,
we're clear of the vortex.
864
00:39:12,584 --> 00:39:14,416
The entire allied fleet
made it through intact,
865
00:39:14,485 --> 00:39:16,476
and there's no sign
of the Dragons.
866
00:39:17,722 --> 00:39:19,588
I'm very impressed.
867
00:39:19,657 --> 00:39:22,524
Aw, forced to reevaluate
your opinion of a human?
868
00:39:22,594 --> 00:39:24,494
Before you begin
your little celebration,
869
00:39:24,562 --> 00:39:26,530
may I remind you that we lost?
870
00:39:26,598 --> 00:39:28,498
Now, you see,
there is where you're wrong.
871
00:39:29,434 --> 00:39:30,765
We came together,
872
00:39:30,835 --> 00:39:33,429
we tested our new allied fleet
in battle against the most powerful
873
00:39:33,504 --> 00:39:36,599
military in the known universe,
and we got away in one piece.
874
00:39:36,674 --> 00:39:40,269
See,
I would call that a victory.
875
00:39:40,345 --> 00:39:42,814
Beka, set a course for Earth.
876
00:39:42,881 --> 00:39:44,178
Dylan, I've just intercepted
877
00:39:44,249 --> 00:39:45,546
a message from Dilykos Drift.
878
00:39:46,484 --> 00:39:47,610
Earth has already risen up
879
00:39:47,685 --> 00:39:49,653
and the Dragons have
crushed the rebellion.
880
00:39:50,555 --> 00:39:51,522
We're too late.
881
00:40:02,567 --> 00:40:03,534
Mr. Harper.
882
00:40:05,937 --> 00:40:07,427
I could use
a little privacy right now,
883
00:40:07,505 --> 00:40:08,472
if you don't mind.
884
00:40:10,141 --> 00:40:11,131
I understand.
885
00:40:12,911 --> 00:40:14,310
But I thought
you'd want to see this.
886
00:40:15,980 --> 00:40:18,381
It's a transmission from Earth.
887
00:40:18,449 --> 00:40:21,077
Copies of it are popping up
all over Dragon space.
888
00:40:25,990 --> 00:40:27,856
The Dragons call us
889
00:40:27,926 --> 00:40:28,893
kludges.
890
00:40:29,961 --> 00:40:32,896
They call us mutts and mules,
891
00:40:32,964 --> 00:40:36,127
as if we're the genetic mistakes
because we're only human.
892
00:40:38,336 --> 00:40:41,067
Well, now we've shown them
what we humans can do.
893
00:40:42,340 --> 00:40:43,307
We kludges,
894
00:40:43,841 --> 00:40:44,808
we mutts,
895
00:40:45,410 --> 00:40:46,377
we mules.
896
00:40:47,879 --> 00:40:49,472
And we're gonna keep
showing them.
897
00:40:50,615 --> 00:40:51,582
Today,
898
00:40:52,617 --> 00:40:53,584
tomorrow,
899
00:40:54,352 --> 00:40:55,319
and every day
900
00:40:56,087 --> 00:40:57,077
until Earth
901
00:40:57,689 --> 00:40:58,656
is free.
902
00:41:00,858 --> 00:41:02,724
Today is like no other day.
903
00:41:05,663 --> 00:41:07,028
Today,
904
00:41:07,098 --> 00:41:08,930
we are cousins all.
905
00:41:10,168 --> 00:41:11,135
Today,
906
00:41:11,736 --> 00:41:13,295
we reclaim
907
00:41:13,371 --> 00:41:14,338
Earth
908
00:41:16,874 --> 00:41:18,308
for humanity.
909
00:41:21,913 --> 00:41:23,904
This is Bunker Hill,
signing off.
910
00:41:27,485 --> 00:41:29,283
They're rising up, Harper.
911
00:41:29,354 --> 00:41:33,086
Slave worlds all over the Dragon
empire are getting this recording,
912
00:41:33,157 --> 00:41:35,057
and they're rising in revolt,
913
00:41:35,126 --> 00:41:36,753
all because of Brendan.
914
00:41:36,828 --> 00:41:38,421
So you're telling me
it was worth it,
915
00:41:39,464 --> 00:41:40,693
even if my cousin's dead?
916
00:41:42,867 --> 00:41:44,164
Either way, he won.
917
00:41:46,571 --> 00:41:47,732
And so did you.
