Ground control, Vesta 1 leaving chasing mode.
Navicon calculating approach for final docking maneuver.
Affirmative. Continue approach.
Entering on final docking corridor.
Rubikon has received Navicon data.
Ready for last docking phase.
Eighty centimeters of sturdy insulation,
five centimeters of reinforced glass.
Eighty centimeters of sturdy insulation, five centimeters...
Who would have thought space travel
means doing nothing but staring at monitors?
Eighty centimeters of sturdy insulation,
five centimeters of reinforced glass.
Relax.
I'm relaxed. What makes you think I'm not relaxed?
I'm relaxed.
Uh... is it meant to do that?
Isn't it supposed to, you know, hold my body weight?
Yeah, you're relaxed.
I can see that.
See, you have to press here, and then it comes off.
Yeah, but I didn't press any button.
- It just came off on its own. - We'll be fine.
Commander Wagner.
This is Rubikon.
What is your current position?
Navicon indicates range
350 meters and rate 3.5.
350? I'm reading 150 meters here.
They're way too fast for their position.
Wagner, we got you at 150.
350 or 150, the station should be in sight by now,
but we have no visual contact.
Where is it?
- I knew it. I fucking knew it. - Vesta 1,
connection to Navicon seems flawed.
Reboot so we get control again.
Affirmative.
Uh... Hannah.
What the fuck?
Shit, we see it now. The station is about 90 meters away.
- I'm switching to manual mode. - Negative! Flying manually is prohibited!
The thing they told us never to touch, brilliant.
I need to take over or we might get hit by the sails.
Wagner, leave it to the AI.
The company wants no risk of human error.
Hannah! Hannah, Hannah, watch out!
Ah!
- That was close. - Yeah, too close.
Initializing reverse thrusters.
Okay. At own discretion.
Okay.
Okay, um...
Speeding down for contact capture.
Slowing down.
- We got you on the monitors now. - Rate 2.2. 2.1.
Wagner, your rate is still too high.
Yes.
You better tell everyone to hold on.
Oh, fuck.
Rate 1.9.
Okay, I'm on target.
Steady.
Steady now.
Left! More left!
Arrived at parking position.
Well done, Wagner.
Activating hooks to finish procedure.
Connecting to station's gravitation field.
See?
What the fuck was that?
Navicon was completely off.
But it was not our fault?
Nibra cannot blame us for that, right?
The station's readings were right.
Good.
Wait a second.
Wait.
She's a soldier.
Why would Nibra send a soldier?
Welcome to the Rubikon. Commander Wagner. Dr. Abbot, glad to have you on board.
What just happened, Commander Jenson? Can you explain?
The error must have happened on ground control's end.
Navicon somehow lost the connection to your shuttle without a notification.
Do you know why?
Tracy will look into it immediately.
And bring me the report once you're done.
The crew cabins?
Yes. Um...
Follow me, please.
I hope you'll be satisfied with your cabin.
It's not much, but you've got the biggest one we've got.
Oh, no, please... that's really not necessary.
I hope your dad's okay about that.
Why? Did he ask about or...
To the new crew,
may you and the three others arriving on Friday have a good time...
and a productive work experience together.
Hmm...
So I... I... I hear you're a chemist?
Yes, but I've read all of your reports and uh...
Sure, that's all you need to conduct complex gene modification.
I am sure you will do great.
As long as you can follow orders.
My words exactly.
Commander, I heard about your excellent navigational skills.
Thank you. And I heard a lot about you too, Doctor.
Hopefully only good things.
Yeah.
Commander, it's the laser comm.
Please, enjoy the party, it's still my shift.
How about we play one last game?
Let's show the new ones how it's done.
Come on, new ones!
Sure.
What are the stakes?
Debit-points.
Okay.
- Danilo! - Uh-huh?
Can you give commander Wagner a piece of cake, please?
Thank you.
Sorry, commander, my son takes this whole...
being called off thing a bit personally.
And what about you?
I just want to see what type of game you play.
Whoo, I got seven.
I'll take one... No, make it two.
Up to your liking?
They are probably used to different standards in the air-domes, right?
Well, if you want your essential amino acids and minerals covered,
that's all you get, I'm afraid. Sorry, domer-boy.
Hey, what's your problem?
Nothing.
I just wonder what makes an executive's son
-want to come to a place like this. - Danilo!
Do you think I chose to come here?
To this old piece of junk?
So then, daddy is punishing you?
Why?
Did you misbehave?
Is that my piece?
Thank you.
Commander Wagner.
A word, please.
What is that?
It's our new flight route for tomorrow.
What, why did they change it?
There is a strange fog cluster in the northern hemisphere.
- Nobody knows what it is. - Over Östgrunden territory.
Wait, Östgrunden?
Yes, and there have been fatalities.
What? What happened?
They can't tell yet.
Isn't Östgrunden where they arrested
those green fighters activists?
Were they the victims, the green fighters?
There were a few hundred.
But they said they can circumnavigate you around it, right?
It'll take us half a day longer.
Okay. Looks good. So... tomorrow evening as planned.
Okay.
Come on, give me something.
You know, we're not really supposed to be in here, right?
I can't find anything on the Internet,
there's nothing on the cameras...
so I thought I'd try this.
So... that's it?
This atmosphere analyzing thing that never worked?
I can't even get it to budge.
You could have asked me, I'm in contact with Nibra.
Right, as if I believe a single word a government company says.
Come on, they're not the enemy.
Uh, yes, actually. Yes, they are.
Of course, not if you work for them.
You worry for your friends, huh?
You're good.
All systems are online and ground control gave their final go.
You guys are ready?
Yes we are.
And the samples?
- Dad, the samples. - Mmm?
Oh, yeah, of course.
And these mother cultures will endure the extended flight time, right?
- Of course. - Of course, yes.
Yeah...
That's our slot. Let's go.
Commander Wagner.
Jensen!
The son is on the way now with the mother cultures,
but I'm pretty sure they've been manipulated as well.
Well, there's been a change of plans.
The committee decided that we want to move on to IKARUS sooner.
Already, when?
Apparently in the next few days.
What? But I haven't been able to investigate on the algaes breathing cycle.
Then you have to search faster to make it on time.
If he finds out, he might destroy samples.
Prepare IKARUS unnoticed then.
Look, the station seems more interwoven with the algae than anticipated.
It could be more complicated to just...
Wagner, just prepare IKARUS.
Hope you know that some of them
were just exposed to high levels of cosmic radiation.
I got instructed on them very thoroughly.
Oh, good, good.
So you are aware of what might happen
when untrained personnel enters without supervision?
- Don't worry about me. - Hmm.
Sounds urgent.
Have they already landed?
No, they're still in transit.
Rubikon to Vesta 2, what's your request?
Rubikon! You can hear us?
We-We're running blind here! We can't get contact.
Neither to ground control nor to anyone.
Is the station still transmitting our signal?
Jenson, calm down.
I'll contact them and get back to you at once.
Rubikon to ground control?
Ground control, do you read?
Rubikon to Nibra North.
Rubikon to Nibvision.
What's going on?
We don't know yet.
Where are they?
- Jenson? - Wagner, yes, tell me.
What'd, what did they say?
We can't make contact either.
What are you kidding me? That can't be true.
We tried all staging posts but no one was answering.
Jenson, what about Navicon? Are you receiving that?
It stopped just like yours in the Vesta 1.
Wait, so they would have to land without any ground AI?
Wh... Are they trained for that?
I... I mean, we weren't trained for that.
Don't... Don't worry, they...
The... Their course is preprogrammed.
Right, Commander?
- Yes. - Yes.
How much time until they enter orbit?
Fifty four minutes from now.
Okay, Jenson, we're on it.
We're gonna find a solution to get your connection to ground.
- Don't worry, okay? - Hannah, hurry, please.
Doctor, send an emergency signal to all stations.
Even other company stations, I don't care.
Gavin, you come with me.
Maybe they aren't receiving our signal.
We have to check the optical unit.
- Point seven five bar. - Check complete.
Dad, have you reached anyone yet?
Negative.
We're about to enter atmosphere.
Uh, good news are, you are exactly on course.
Yes, but only if no parameters change on the way, right?
Hold on there, hold on there.
You'll be fine.
Do you see it, Hannah?
I'm about... five meters away.
How's she doing?
Vitals okay.
Heartbeat slightly increased, but that's normal.
Do we get the test signal?
Gavin?
We're losing...
- Doctor Kry... Jenson? - Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!
- To anyone! - Jenson, what's going on?
The capsule is heating up uncontrollably!
We're going to burn up!
Gavin, can you hear that?
- The shell is about to break! - Danilo!
Gavin?
Danilo!
- Vesta 2! - Danilo!
Danilo! Danilo, what's going on?
Gavin? Gavin, what's going on down there?
Jenson?
Come on, open up!
Fuck!
It wasn't our signal.
Down there everything is...
Hannah. The... the crew.
I know.
Rubikon to ground control.
Does anybody hear us?
Rubikon to ground.
Anyone?
Jenson?
Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!
- To anyone! - - Jenson, what's going on?
The capsule is heating up uncontrollably!
- We're gonna burn up! - - Gavin, can you hear that?
- Danilo! Danilo! - The shell's about to break!
Gavin?
Vesta 2?
Danilo! Danilo, what's going on?
Sorry, I forgot the door.
It's been two days and I haven't been able to reach anyone.
The lasers can't get through the fog in either direction.
Could it be the same as in Östgrunden?
Spreading across the globe that quickly?
No that would take months, not days.
Well, I think we would have noticed a meteorite or a volcano.
And what if it was there before?
In the atmosphere and just not visible yet?
You mean the Navicon problem when we came up here?
Nah. I've thought about that too, but...
That's why I've been trying to understand
this old atmosphere analyzer... thing.
And how's that going?
Tsk... Really good.
So far, I only found out that it works without a connection.
Well. Keep trying.
Dr. Krylow?
Can I come in?
I brought you something to eat.
I know you're hurting but...
We need to talk about the algae.
Our oxy tanks won't hold forever.
Go away.
How far developed is the gas exchange rate?
- Does the breathing symbiosis work or not? - Go away!
How long can we stay up here?
Doctor, please!
Go away!
Gavin?
Gavin can you come and take a look at something?
Gavin!
Oh, fuck... Shit, shit shit!
Doctor!
Doctor, help me!
It's an emergency! Doctor, come!
Hurry up!
Doctor? Come on!
Shit! How long?
He just entered.
I'm trying to stop depressurization.
Just a second.
Mhm, it has to empty completely before we can fill it up again.
No, that's, that's too long.
What are you doing? No! No! No!
I'm trying to bypass the locking mechanism.
No, no, no, no! You'll destroy it!
Look, you can kill us.
All of us, trust me.
Just wait it out. Please, wait it out.
Come on.
Idiot!
Okay, empty! Now fastest mode!
Ready?
- Okay, it's open. - No, no, no, no! The pressure is still too much!
Fuck it! Come on, help me.
Gavin! Gavin?
Hey, can you hear me?
Mouth to mouth, come on.
Okay.
Five, four, three, two, one.
Okay, again.
Okay.
Careful.
Okay, that's not ripped.
Is he... Is he gonna be okay?
Uh, I don't know. Hope so.
Why the hell would he do that?
- Hmm? - Why would he do that?
I don't know.
Frankly, I don't care.
What's wrong with you? He just tried to kill himself and you don't care?
Excuse me?
You know what? You do it.
What?
They didn't teach you that at spy academy?
Oh, yeah, I know.
Know what?
That your algae system is much more advanced than you want to admit?
- Oh, that's a big surprise. - Oh, you think I'm an idiot?
I'm gonna tell anything to a Nibra spy? No!
It's not spying.
They funded it, it belongs to them.
No, it doesn't! It doesn't belong to them.
It belongs to me.
It belongs to Danilo.
I'm sorry about your son.
Come on, you must be tired.
Just go to bed, I can take care of him.
Gavin?
I closed my eyes for one second.
Hey Gavin?
Gavin, how... how do you feel?
- Let me check your ear... - Get off me!
I...
I'm sorry. I... I...
Calm down.
Y-You don't understand this.
- You need to lay down. - This fog is toxic.
- Okay? - Th-These aerosols... They...
- Calm down. - They're all dead.
- Okay. - They're all dead.
Nobody can survive this! Dimitri... I...
They're all dead.
Look, look... Breathe, breathe. Deep breath.
I can't breathe.
Everyone down there.
Family? Friends?
You have someone down there?
My little sister.
Sorry.
But it doesn't matter.
We'll suffocate up here anyway.
We're safe here.
Okay?
Danilo and I...
achieved a working symbiosis with the algae.
We can survive.
Thank you.
For telling a Nibra spy.
You're welcome.
Where you going?
Wow, you've been busy.
Even if the air is toxic, there are bunkers.
The lasers can't get through the fog, but...
maybe this can.
I'm trying to get it to work.
Is this?
The old ISS radio system, exactly.
That's ancient technology.
I mean, do you really think anyone is still using it?
I'll find out.
I just need to reactivate the radio antenna.
Radio antenna?
I... Well you can't do that alone.
Yeah, I know.
Take a seat.
Look for a circuit in sector... in sector B.
Can you see it?
The cables are tangled.
Okay, wait.
I got it, affirmative.
Okay, so redirect it.
Have you seen all this useless crap here?
Ya, I've lived on the station for eight years, I've seen it all.
That's what happens when it's too expensive to get rid of old parts.
You just pile them up together.
Your domer-friend was right.
This station is a junkyard.
Yeah, tell me about it.
When I was young, astronauts were like gods.
Well, when you were young, countries existed, so...
Okay, Doctor, it's attached.
Wait.
Very good. By the way,
you don't have to call me doctor all the time.
My real name is Dimitri.
I think I'm getting a signal here.
Dimitri.
Give me a second, let me scan it.
Got it.
Okay.
Let's give it a try.
Commander Wagner to ground.
Can anybody hear me?
Please, anyone?
Hello?
Fuck!
Gavin can't be right.
She can't be dead.
Open the door! Come on!
Your ears hurt?
I... I can give you some painkillers
for the... for the ears.
- I'm fine. I'm fine. - You're sure?
So there's no doubt about what you said?
The chemical structure of the fog's aerosols is highly toxic.
It's lethal.
Where do they come from?
I don't know, uh...
To me it seems like some kind of... chain reaction?
From what?
Permafrost gases.
We've been warning people about this for years
And now they've obviously reacted with something.
Maybe Toxins from the power plants, some other pollution,
maybe chemical weapons from another corporation war.
Fact is it's, it's all over down there. We fucked it.
Apparently, the economy was more important than breathing.
And what about the air-domes?
They are for a very specific molecular spectrum.
Only a closed system with oxygen tanks could shield them from the fog.
But there are bunkers like that.
Evacuation bunkers. I trained in them.
And what will happen to the people in there? Hm?
Sooner or later, they'll run out of food, they'll run out of oxygen.
Same as us. We're all just living corpses.
- Gavin. - And I don't like the idea of a slow death.
We can stay here as long as we need to.
The algae gas exchange works.
No.
Wha?
No?
Uh-uh, I can't live like this.
Stuck in this... in this tiny metal can forever?
Maybe you two can.
- I just can't. - -Yeah and what is your alternative?
You wanna try it again?
Look... it's your life, your decision.
I just want you to know that if you try it again,
you will also kill her.
And me.
What, why?
I didn't tell you this yet, but the system is designed for a full crew of six.
They produce CO2 and the system converts it back into oxygen.
The bare minimum for an efficient gas exchange is three people.
Gavin, we need your CO2.
Can I join?
Okay.
I'm mad at you, you know?
For leaving me alone here with this old grumpy cat.
What? What?
What? What's so funny?
It's... It's just that I... I worked my ass off.
Debit-point for debit-point.
One shitty mission after another and for what?
For this?
I could have partied more, like Knopf, or...
taken a day off every once in a while.
Yeah.
I think I really screwed up this whole life thing.
Same here.
You think I was not screwing up my life,
by going on protests and not washing and cutting out T-shirts and...
I'm really glad I did that now, aren't I?
Yeah.
There is no planet B.
And Dimitri.
Do you think he was partying in his lab
with his working symbiosis?
Can you imagine if they knew on Earth
that we were the last three humans?
Oh, my God!
A bunch of losers and freaks.
Me and my friends...
fought so hard for a planet that doesn't exist anymore.
I have spent so long believing in something,
and now it doesn't... mean anything.
So the naïve activist is gone?
Hmm...
He...
He was kind of an idiot anyway.
That's too bad.
I liked him.
Dimitri?
What?
Is that normal?
Eh, they never keep the exact same green color.
How much longer?
I'm dying this time for real.
Two more minutes!
Yeah, but... but brown? That's... that's weird.
It can happen if, uh...
No, don't worry, it's fine.
Oh, fuck... Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
That's it, I'm done.
They'll have to wait for my breath until tomorrow.
Gavin, it wasn't 45 minutes.
Do-Do you even know how long that is?
No, of course you don't, 'cause it's always Hannah and me peddling.
Actually, I do know because every morning when you cuddle, I peddle.
At least 45 minutes.
Maybe we should check that on the CCTV.
Maybe we should.
Okay, okay. What do you say?
Movie night?
- Sure. - What else?
Dimitri?
Uh, yeah, choose something. I'm uh... I'll come in a second!
Sorry, guys, sorry.
Oh, you waited for me, that's nice.
Where have you been?
I just, uh...
What are we watching?
Nothing, if you can't reactivate the Internet.
Apparently, we've reached the end of the internal movie library.
Oh...
I can offer you a drink.
More. More, more!
More, more, more!
Hannushka, it's enough.
You had enough, Hannushka.
Yeah, thank you... Daddy.
- Okay... - Of all your algae's functions this is definitely my favorite.
Yeah, well, this batch is a bit too strong. You can see that.
If I'd known you had a whole distillery in your lab I would have just...
Yeah, you would just report me to Nibra, wouldn't you, little spy?
Yes, probably.
Wait, what?
Wait, you didn't know?
Hannushka was sent by Nibra to steal my mother cultures.
What the fuck it's not... No, not stealing.
- Not stealing. Just taking away. - Steal is a harsh word.
Take it away and steal.
- No. No. No. - Wh... Five weeks
and you're only mentioning this now?
I'm so sorry, my dear.
Take it.
Three.
You... You were hiding the samples?
I was helping.
A few months ago, Nibra changed their contract.
Suddenly they wanted the system to be exclusive for their air-domes.
And... I wouldn't mind.
I would have taken the money, which was a lot of money.
Greedy fuck.
Uh? Yeah, and not ashamed of it.
But Danilo, no.
He was furious.
He decided to make it a public domain.
He found some secret, I don't know, distributor.
Huh, actually sounds like a good guy.
Extremely annoying, stubborn, rude.
A little bit like you.
Cheeky little do-gooder shit, huh?
Sorry.
Thank you... you know.
Okay, okay, show me what you got, boys.
Ugh, yeah this is garbage.
- No! - Now you are gone.
What the f...
- Boom. - No, Gavin!
- Ooh... - Fuck off, I... No, I am...
- Hannushka, Hannushka, stop it. - No! Okay, I'm... no.
No! And you two should be so fucking ashamed cleaning out the poor.
I need to dance or I'll die.
Oh, no.
Gavin! Dance with the woman.
Come on, dance.
- Come on, lover boy. - Please, no.
- Please... - Come... Come on. Come on!
Move the hips, move the hips.
No! I think... I think you should get Dimitri to dance.
- Oh, gotcha! - Oh, no, no!
- Come on! - No! No,
I'm a scientist, I'm not a dancer, I'm not...
- Yes you are. - Yes, doctors can dance, come on!
You're definitely, definitely drunk enough to dance.
- Come on. - Stop it.
Come on, Dimitri. Yes.
Come on. Yes.
If anyone else is out there, please answer.
We are a group of survivors
in a bunker underneath Nibra headquarters.
If you can hear us, please respond.
Gavin?
Gavin? Hey, you guys wake up!
Hey Gavin! Gavin, wake up!
Come on, the laser comm worked again,
I... I talked to one of the survivors.
Uh...
Come on! Come!
Dimitri.
Hey, they're alive. There's... There are survivors down there.
Yeah, good, great...
Rubikon to survivors, can you hear us?
Hello? Commander Wagner? Is this thing working?
Oh, God.
- Um, yes. Yes, it is. - Oh, my God.
And we're happy to hear your voice.
Uh... This is Esther Chen-Kaminski, I'm our representative.
How many of you are there?
We're almost 300 here.
Was there an attack?
Honestly, we don't know.
The fog came so suddenly
and people started coughing and dropping, it was...
But the soldiers brought us into the bunker.
But you are safe, aren't you?
No, it's the oxygen.
We don't have much left.
But I guess Krylow's algae system is preventing that for you, right?
How do you know about the algae?
Well, some of us own stock in this promising project.
So you're CEOs or something?
And their families, yes.
Is there a Randall Abbot amongst you?
I'm sorry, no.
But, so these algae...
The system provides for you, right?
I mean, Dr. Krylow made that work?
Dimitri?
H-He's in here.
Hannah was right.
There are survivors, almost 300.
Really?
Yeah, but even better.
There are these openings in the fog.
Very small ones, but still.
- Hmm. - -That's why they could hear us.
They've already managed to transfer their bunker's coordinates.
The next step would be the Vesta.
With Gavin's atmosphere analysis
I might manage to fly down manually.
- To do what? - Their bunker provides enough oxygen
for three more weeks at best.
- Mm-hmm. - If...
If we could bring your algae down there, we could help them.
- Okay. - Look, they're supposed to nourish a closed system.
It doesn't matter if it's a bunker down there or the Rubikon up here.
Hold on one second. So, you're suggesting we fly down without Navicon?
Yes.
We could save three hundred lives.
We think it's a risk worth taking.
Let's say we, we make it to Earth.
- How do we get to the bunkers? - They have mobile oxy-tanks.
They could pick us up, also the equipment from the Nibra Lab.
It's pretty close to where we'd land.
Oh, it seems like you've figured it all out.
Great...
So what if I say no?
What? Wh-Why?
You know, it's... it's a little irresponsible.
And very, very stupid.
Flying down without Navicon? Are you out of your minds?
So what, we do... we do nothing? We just watch them die?
- Are you really that selfish? - Ca-Can you stop with this green fighter bullshit?
It's not one of your awareness projects.
We have to help if we can. We have a moral responsibility.
My only moral responsibility is to keep you and you alive.
- That's it. - Isn't this what Danilo would have wanted?
To help people?
Yes, he did.
And now he's dead.
But I'm here and I say, "tough luck to them."
I know now how to make mother cultures.
So, we don't need your help.
You're not gonna touch them.
- Hey - You understand what I'm saying?
You're not gonna touch it!
Stop! Seriously, you guys.
Sit down, both of you.
We have to make a decision.
It really doesn't make sense.
Come on, we are fine.
We are good here.
We, we can stay here as long as we want.
Really? That's your plan?
Have you gone completely crazy in that lab all this time?
You don't get to talk to me about crazy, mister.
I am not the one who tried to kill himself.
How desperately are you trying to do it again?
Really? You're gonna go there?
Hey, I'm not done talking to you.
Hey, Hey! Come back! Come...
Danilo!
You okay?
Nothing, it's...
Hey, hey, hey. You okay?
It's nothing, it's just... It's just your schnapps, I guess.
What are you doing?
Just a precaution, just want to make sure everything is fine.
Thank you.
He's right, you know.
What if those are the last people on the planet?
Well.
If these are the last people on the planet Earth,
maybe it's not that bad of an idea, to start it all from scratch.
Dimitri, come on.
Okay. Tell me, what have these people,
these lovely CEOs, ever done for you?
They got me out of the dirt.
Hm.
Yeah and made you a soldier to serve them in their army.
You done?
Can't sleep?
Is that her, Knopf?
Her real name is Mia.
This is the last message I got from her.
I'm trying to find out where she was.
Okay?
Knopf was stationed five hours away from the Nibra central bunker.
There are other bunkers in that area and...
she got an evacuation order too.
That means she could still be alive?
Hannah, why didn't you tell me?
'Cause it's... it's stupid.
It's such a small chance.
We're preparing for departure.
Will you help us load the mother cultures?
Dimitri, either you come with us or...
Or you stay.
What? In here as well? Eh...
No, no, don't say we're losing them now.
Is this a trick, to make us stay?
No, it's not a trick.
It's really happening.
In the whole station.
Are they sick?
That's what I thought.
So what? We can't bring them down or?
Dimitri.
- It's you. - I make them go...
I don't even touch them without your supervision.
You don't need to touch them.
They feed from our urine in the station's nutrient cycle.
So they've changed color because of Hannah's pee?
Exactly.
Yeah, yeah, you almost got me.
Come on.
The algae is extremely sensitive to hormones.
It's your high levels of HCG that do it.
No, soldiers can't get pregnant.
We don't even get our periods.
I'm... I'm sterile till the end of my duty.
Unless your hormone inducer loses connection with its control unit
for a long enough time.
But the algae is fine, right?
We won't lose it?
The algae is fine.
That, on the other hand?
If we fly down...
These people need our help.
Come on.
Wait, Hannah, wait.
Stop.
What the fuck, dude?
He's right, he's right.
Please.
Start loading the mother cultures.
We're leaving tomorrow.
I'll prepare the Vesta.
Hannah.
Hannah!
Shit. Come on.
Again?
In case you didn't notice, I... I just killed us.
So, yeah, again.
Yeah, but the other eight times you made it.
You're just getting tired, that's all.
This flight corridor you gave me is fucking narrow.
Well, then they're lucky that it's you sitting in the seat.
Hannah, I really think we should talk about the...
about all this.
What does this mean now?
Nothing, this means nothing.
Hannah...
isn't it likely that...
Stop it, okay? I...
No! Fuck.
I'm going to lose it at re-entry or landing
or without the station's radiation shield.
Okay, that's... That's super fucked up, yeah.
Sorry, I... I didn't mean to...
It has no chance anyway, I mean, even if we stayed.
I can't raise a baby here.
Just you, me and Dimitri?
This changes nothing.
It just makes the whole situation shittier.
I'm sorry.
I really am.
Look, this one probably doesn't have a chance.
But, when we're down there...
Are you saying you want a baby with me?
Why not?
I mean, imagine.
It'd kick butt.
My brains, your muscles.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right, I'm...
I'm definitely too tired for this.
Eight landings out of ten must be enough, right?
Okay, bring me the last one.
And this is really enough for 300 people?
Yep, that's the minimum amount.
What?
Again, you think I'm tricking you or something?
It's just, you've not said one word of resistance the whole day.
What... What do you want from me?
You think I'm stupid enough
to fly down with algae cultures that don't work?
I mean, I can't stay here without you two.
So, you won. Congratulations.
What else do you want from me?
Okay, all checks are done.
Are you ready for this?
Nope.
Perfect.
Vesta 1, flight corridor received.
Central Nibra, contacting you again in 92 minutes.
Okay, we'll wish you a safe journey
- and we're looking...
And the contact window's just passed.
Okay, closing the inner door.
Uh... What is that?
The jets are not responding.
Whoa...
What is that?
The jet tanks overheated but... We haven't even ignited.
- Overheated? - The temperature keeps rising, but...
fuck, that can't be right.
Hannah, what?
We have overpressure.
- Oh, shit. - Makes no sense.
I need to release the tanks.
- Did it work? - The valves are not opening.
- Try the gas outlet! - I tried!
They must have deformed under the heat!
How hot are the tanks?
Hannah?
Hannah!
Unfasten immediately! Get out now!
- Come on! - Come on, come on. Come on.
Come on, we're gonna explode!
Put yourself together.
You put yourself together! Come on!
Go!
- What the fuck? - What?
Look. The Vesta's cooling system shut down almost 11 hours ago.
That's why the tanks overheated. I'll redirect the solar panels.
Shadow alone won't do it anymore. Look at the temperature.
We need to decouple it.
No. No, there has to be another way.
We can dump the tanks manually, eh?
That could work.
Only from inside the Vesta, but that's far too dangerous.
Gavin, stop!
It could blow up any second!
Fuck!
He has to go through the whole cooling block. That's impossible.
He's killing himself.
All of us.
Can you still decouple?
- No, no, no! No! - Wait! Hannah!
No! No!
Stop!
No!
Hannah, please!
No!
I had to.
You did the right thing, commander.
He would have died.
I know, doesn't seem like much up here...
But, uh...
this place saved our lives.
Could be home.
How was it for you?
Having a child?
Loud.
Nerve-wracking.
Exhausting.
Amazing.
You can't possibly imagine loving anyone
like you love this little creature.
Okay.
We don't need two people to tell them.
- But I was... - Go or I go.
Did you do it because of the pregnancy?
No. I did it because of us.
Vesta 1?
Vesta 1, we can't detect your signal.
Do you read?
Vesta 1?
Yes, Esther we're here.
Gavin, where are you? What happened?
What's IKARUS?
They said that you would know.
My actual mission.
Once I found a working mother culture,
I was to bring down the entire algae lab.
It can be ejected and flown down separately.
- What? - It was a secret military operation.
I'm surprised these CEOs even know about it.
W-Wait.
C-Can we go down with it?
It's not made for passengers and can't be steered.
Without Navicon we can only detach it at a calculated moment and...
hope for the best.
But theoretically,
we could board it if we adapted it for passengers.
Hannah, what the fuck? Why didn't you tell me
that there was another chance for re-entry?
Because it's not a serious option. Okay?
Three people against 300.
Yes, or even more if other bunkers made it.
I think we should do it.
If we don't try, then it's done for them down there.
We can't let that happen.
This is bigger than us, right?
Right?
You, asshole, disconnected the Vesta from the cooling cycle.
We almost died because of you.
I didn't want, I just...
I just wanted a delay.
It was an accident.
Yeah, I didn't know the valves can close up.
I couldn't let what happened to Danilo happen to us.
Bullshit.
You just did it because you're a selfish coward.
You know what this is?
Yeah.
And you know what it does?
I found out at some point, yes.
Good. 'Cause that's what we'll do now.
We will pump back the symbiosis cultures in here and we will fly down.
So you knew about IKARUS all of this time?
And you didn't say anything?
You didn't want this either.
Did you?
Gavin is right.
We need to help.
There is no shame in caring for your own life, Hannah.
Especially now.
Stop it.
Have you ever asked yourself why Nibra needed the algae so bad all of a sudden?
I mean, for years they didn't give a fuck.
Suddenly they want everything, now.
They need the system now.
They send you to space to get it, why?
Why, now?
What are you trying to say?
They knew.
They knew a catastrophe was coming.
They just didn't tell anyone.
And why would they?
They didn't want to share their bunkers.
Do you really think,
they would give you their algae, if it was the other way around?
We've made a decision.
We're sending the algae lab down to you, like you asked.
But we're coming with it.
Okay, we're looking forward to that.
Wait, one more thing before we start.
I need to talk to one of the soldiers.
But I am our representative.
Yes, but IKARUS is a military mission, so.
Eh... okay.
The thing is... there are no soldiers here.
But you said the soldiers brought you into the bunkers.
Yes, they brought us here, but... we have limited space.
We have room for 300 civilians.
Families.
So what? You...
You just left them outside?
To die?
They did their duty.
That was Nibra's order?
For all evacuation soldiers?
Hannah, it is your job to keep us alive!
You lied.
No, we didn't lie.
You just assumed what you wanted to believe.
I'm sorry, but what were you thinking?
All we want is to live, nothing more.
We want our kids to survive.
I mean, you can't blame us for that.
Fuck! Ugh!
Come on, get off the floor.
No, I'm done.
Hannah, they'll run out of oxygen within days.
Yeah, and why would cannon fodder like me care?
They didn't give a shit about me. Or Knopf.
Or my parents.
Apparently, money and privilege don't get you a spot in the bunker either.
You know that there are children down there too, right?
And what about this one?
You said that we couldn't raise it here.
Why actually not? I mean...
this place is better than anywhere I lived before.
Growing old here?
Never seeing Earth?
What kind of a life is that?
At least a life.
I... I don't get it.
Are you just hurt or do you really want this baby?
See, I don't know, okay?
I never thought about having a child.
Having a family meant going back to being poor.
Not obeying meant being poor.
A soldier doesn't even have that choice.
And that choice is more important
than saving the rest of our world.
Yes.
You wouldn't understand that, domer.
For someone like you, it's easy playing "Save the World."
But not everyone has a daddy who sends him up here for safety
if everything else goes down the drain.
Is that really what you think?
Huh.
Gavin?
Open the door.
I'm finishing what we started.
Are you leaving me behind?
No, but I just need to finish up.
Just wait.
How can you know I won't stop you?
Because you're a good person.
And you know that this is right.
Hannah, wait! Stop!
Gavin, stop it!
Please, move!
No! Gavin! Gavin! Gavin!
Don't...
Stop it!
I can't let you do this.
Hannah, can... Can we talk about this? I...
I can't. I just don't want to.
Hannah, please just...
Fuck!
Hannah, You can fix this, right?
Hannah?
I'm sorry... I wanna stay.
Gavin?
Come on.
Let's see if we can fix IKARUS somehow.
Yeah, what?
Why?
We need three breathers or the gas mix collapses.
Your words.
You... You think Gavin did it...
Yeah.
He forced his will on us.
He got what he wanted.
- What? - No... No, no, no...
We need three breathers, right?
Dimitri?
I said it after he tried to...
I just... I just didn't want him to harm himself.
I wanted to save him.
Stop.
- I'm sorry. I didn't... - Okay, just stop.
No, no, no!
Nein, nein, no, now.
- I got you. I do. - No, no, no!
Let's go. Pashli!
Let's go!
Eins, zwei, drei!
You!
Good night, yes?
Okay! Warte, warte.
Hello, hello? Is there anyone? Hello? Hello?
Hello?
Look, guys, the thing is working.
Give it to me! Hello?
Are you in there? In the box?
No, we are in the southern camps.
- And you? What's your name? - Knopf.
- Knopf... - Where are you?
Eh... Rubikon.
Can you play outside there again too?
No, Mom says we can't breathe outside.
So he must still be somewhere up North.
Hey, shh. Well, then ask her if you can come down here.
The grown-ups are always searching for survivors anyway.
They say we must help each other cause everything is different now.
Stop it! Seriously, can't you come?
