"Previously on "Dark Matter"..." "You're saying Sarah is alive as a computer program?" "I know she wants to see you." "You're building yourself a whole world here, aren't you?" "I want this to feel like it's your home too." "The independent colonies have organized much faster than we anticipated." "It now appears they're getting outside help." "[gunshot]" "We're not leaving you behind." "Then think of it as leaving me to move forward." "It's time to use Agent Zero." "Those are bodies." "Oh, my God, Six." "[breathing heavily] [eerie music]" "♪" "[grunts]" "♪" "Someone's alive." "Over here." "♪" "He's gone into cardiac arrest." "Come on, Six." "Come on!" "We're losing him." "[rock music]" "♪ [eerie music]" "♪" "How are you feeling?" "Tired." "Confused." "Ohh... sore." "Sorry about that." "What happened?" "We lost communication with you a couple days ago." "When you didn't respond to comm attempts, we investigated, and..." "Our readings indicate the colony was hit by a chemical attack." "What about the others?" "You were the only survivor." "How?" "That's what we're trying to figure out." "What do you remember?" "People lying on the ground... dead." "And before that?" "I don't know." "It's all a blur." " [groans]" " Easy." "A likely consequence of your exposure to the neurotoxic residue." "Initial scans suggest your nervous system has been compromised." "We found a ship parked in a clearing near the facility." "It's possible that you were off world and arrived sometime after the initial attack." "With the toxin partially dissipated, the effects were muted." "It's the only reason you're alive." "It was Traugott." "They did this." "The attack killed everyone on the colony but left the facility undamaged." "Eliminate the troublemakers but keep their assets intact." "We need to warn the leaders of the independent colonies, let them know they're all in danger." "How would do we do that?" "They're scattered across three sectors." "No, they're not." "All the leaders have gathered for a secret meeting trying to figure out how to form a new government." "I have the transmission codes." "We can warn them, save them." "Kal?" "You okay?" "It's all right." "You're with me." "It was just another dream." "Were you back on the space station?" "I was on a ship." "People died." "You've have to stop blaming yourself." "What happened on Hyadum-12 was not your fault." "Hyadum-12?" "Where am I?" "You're home." "You have been back for weeks." "I was thinking, maybe the doctor's right." "Maybe we should get away, and then when we get back, you can try again, find something that suits you." "I" "I heard they're looking for someone to head security at Blackstone." "But I'm a cop." "Not anymore." "Kal, we discussed this." "Mom?" "Shoot." "Mommy." "I just remembered something." " What?" " I have a wife and son." "We tried the subspace channel you gave us." "There was no response." "Are you sure those were the right transmit codes?" "I'm positive." "It's possible they've already come under attack." "No, that location is top secret." "Only a few people from each colony know those coordinates." "What about you?" "You know the location?" "Yes, but..." "How long to get there, maximum FTL?" " We can't do that." " Why not?" "The meeting's under a strict no-access protocol." "No one in or out." "They'll assume any ship approaching is hostile and open fire." "Our shields can take it." "We just need to get close enough to send a message." "There could be corporate ships in the vicinity right now monitoring us." "It's probably just what they're hoping for, that we'll panic and lead them straight to the summit." "They could take out the entire rebel leadership in one shot." " Six, that's..." " No, we can't risk it." "Keep trying them on subspace." "It's the only way." "Hey, look who's back up and at 'em." "[groans]" "Are you sure you should be walking around?" "Just a few minutes ago," "I remembered something about my life before I went into stasis." "How is that possible?" "The Android said our memories weren't wiped." "They were just suppressed, inaccessible." "What if the neurotoxin somehow unlocked that part of my brain?" "What did you remember?" "I'm married." "I'm a father." "Are you sure?" "I mean, it's possible the neurotoxin is playing with your head." "It wasn't a hallucination." "It was a memory." "It was real." "What else do you remember?" "Not much beyond my wife's face." "But maybe this is the beginning of me getting all my old memories back." "Hey, I know what you're thinking, but you shouldn't worry." "I'm not like Ryo." "Neither was Four." "That was different." "I'm not gonna change." "Are you sure?" "What's that supposed to mean?" "All this time you've been talking about how you want to help people, convince us to do the right thing, and now that we do want to help, you won't let us." "What?" "The colonists are in danger, and you won't do anything to help them because of some protocol?" "Two filled us in." "I won't take the chance of compromising the location of the summit." " Oh, come on." " What are the chances that there's a corporate ship just hiding out there waiting to track us?" "They're small, but I won't risk it." "What about the risk of not warning them?" "After the no-access protocol is lifted, then..." "You're not making sense, and I'm beginning to worry that it's the neurotoxin affecting you." "This isn't like you." "Kid, hey." "Five, wait." "Six?" "Six!" "Hey, Six." "Can you hear me, buddy?" "Hey." "Hey, Six." "Stick with me, buddy." "Come on." "Hey." "Kal?" "Kal, you with me?" "Yeah, what?" "Are you even listening to what I'm saying?" "You've got to stop and consider your situation here, what you think you have to gain, and everything you stand to lose." "All right, tell me." "What do I have to lose?" "Oh, don't do this to yourself or your family." "They're more important than the damn job." "You're telling me I should quit?" "I'm saying don't come back." "For the sake of Lara and Dane, let it go." "Hyadum-12, The General, the rebels, they're not your problem anymore." "The General made me complicit in the murder of thousands of innocent civilians." "Don't let your desire for revenge destroy the two best things in your life." "Ride out your sick leave, then hand in your badge." "No one is gonna think any less of you." " What happened?" " You passed out." "Your nervous system is shutting down." "It's the neurotoxin." "You're dying." "What can we do?" "We can attempt to minimize the damage by removing the remaining neurotoxin from your blood." "How can we do that?" "I believe I can manufacture a filtration system capable of removing the remaining toxin from your blood." "You think that'll save me?" "Even if we're successful in removing the toxin, too much damage may already have been done." "But it is your only chance." "All right." "Under the circumstances, are you sure you don't want to give us the coordinates to the leadership summit?" "We've been over this." "But our attempts at subspace communication have failed, and if they continue to fail, and if you die without giving us the coordinates, we will be out of options." "They won't know what's coming before it's too late." "Whatever happens, we must move quickly." "[tense electronic music]" "♪" "What's happening?" "I told you you had to choose." "Us or your job." "It's you." "My family comes first." "Don't lie to me." "I know you talked to your superior at the G.A." "You told them you were going back." "I..." "I wouldn't." "I won't." " You did." " I made a mistake." "I'll tell them I changed my mind." "I don't want to lose you." "I'm sorry, Kal." "I wish I could believe you." "Hey." "You okay?" "Got a wicked headache." "Yeah, I bet." "You might want to run those by The Android, make sure they don't make your situation worse." "My situation can't get any worse." "Mm." "I saw another memory." "I'm guessing not a good one?" "Like I told you, I..." "I had a family." "But I lost them." "I chose my job over them." "Doesn't sound like you." "After Hyadum-12, I was on sick leave." "And I should've quit then, but I didn't, because I was so obsessed with going after The General." "Maybe you're not so different now." "I mean, you're still obsessed with doing the right thing." "And you're pretty bad at weighing the cost to us, to your family, to the outer colonies that declared their independence." "Time's running out for them." "You think I don't know that?" "I want to warn them, but I can't." "Like hell you can't." "There's a no-go directive in place." "Screw the directive." "Listen to yourself, you're sitting there, and you're bellyaching about all the mistakes you've made, how you want to take them back." "How about just making the right call in the first place?" "This is the right call." "Is that what you thought when you turned your back on us, when you turned your back on your wife and your kid?" "No, man." "This neurotoxin, it's messing with your mind." "What if it's not just your memories?" "What if Five's right?" "What if it's screwing with your ability to make a logical decision?" "It's not." "I would know." "No one knows when their judgment's impaired." "That's the whole point." "Think about it." "You risked everything to bring justice for those 10,000 people who were killed on Hyadum-12." "But if you don't get the word out to your friends in the outer colonies, the death toll's gonna be 1,000 higher than that." "Since when did you start giving a damn?" "Since you convinced us." "You want to fight for the little guy, protect them from the corps; this is your chance." "But that's exactly what I'm doing." "No, Six, that's not what you're doing." "What you're doing is dying." "You're taking a lot of innocent people with you." "[tense music]" "♪" "Five?" "Hey." "What are you doing down here?" "I come down here sometimes to think... when I'm sad." "Everything's gonna be fine." "I just don't know what I'd do without you." "Oh, come on." "I'm not going anywhere." "That's what I thought before you decided to stay with those colonists." "I thought I could help them." "I was wrong." "That's not true." "Ever since you discovered you were a cop, you've been struggling trying to figure out where you belong" "The answer's always been right in front of you." "You belong here with us." "It's just... nothing ever goes as planned." "Every time I think we're turning a corner, something bad happens." "And I'm tired of it." "Me too." "But right now, I don't care about any of that... or you old memories." "I just want you to get better." "Thanks." "I..." "Six?" "Six?" "Six, are you okay?" "[distorted voice] Six, are you okay?" "Our readings indicate the colony was hit by a chemical attack." "The payload was probably delivered via orbital strike." "Someone's alive." "I don't want to lose you." "How are you feeling?" "Are you even listening to what I'm saying?" "Six." "Six." "Then hand in your badge." "No one is gonna think any less of you." "What the hell is happening to me?" "I'm reading some atypical brain activity here." "This could be a problem." "[tense electronic music]" "♪" "This is a mess, I'm getting high Beta spikes all over the map." "What's causing it?" "Well, I'm not entirely sure, but it looks like the procedure is triggering a store of suppressed memories." "And it's interfering with the scenario." "Okay, we just need to be patient." "But we've been at this for hours, and we're still no closer to getting him to give up that location." "It's not as simple as plucking information from his brain." "He needs to believe that what he's experiencing is real, that the threat to the other colonies is real." "He does, but so far, that's still not enough to convince him." "We may need to try a different approach." " Okay, let me give it a go." " No." "I'm more experienced." "You said I could have a turn." "Have a turn?" "This isn't a game." "Let me go back in one more time, then you can try." "You know, you told Commander Nieman that this wouldn't be a problem." "You assured him that we could do this." "And we will." "We just need more time." "My initial reading suggest some sort of chemical attack, but we'd need to head down to the planet's surface to confirm specifics." "Are you kidding me?" "We're not walking into a cloud of whatever it is wiped them all out." "I mean, we're not even sure Six was there when it happened, right?" "Let's not jump to conclusions." "Most of the biological agent has dispersed." "The danger should be minimal." "I'll go." "No, you won't go." "We have to go down there, make sure." "We can't leave without finding out if he's alive or dead." "Two, you're not invincible." "Fine, well, put on a space suit or something." "Yes, okay." "Receiving subspace transmission." "Who is it?" "Lieutenant Anders of the Galactic Authority." "On screen." " Anders." " There was a chemical attack on one of the outer colonies." "Yes, we know." "We're in planetary orbit above it right now." " Do you know who was responsible?" " Ferrous Corp." "Word is they're looking to target all the independent colonies, wipe the slate clean so that they can take over when the war ends." "What the hell is the G.A. gonna do about it?" "What they can." "We've set up patrols to monitor the situation, but this corporate war has stretched us mighty thin." "We can't be everywhere at once." " Anders..." " I know why you're there, and I've got news for you." "Somehow Kal survived the attack on that planet." "He's alive?" "Are you sure?" "I've been monitoring inter-corporate communications for any mention of you and your crew." "Today the system flagged a transmission mentioning Kal." "Where is he?" "On a Ferrous Corp ship sent to assess the efficiency of the attack." "I'm still working to pinpoint its location." "Hopefully, I can find them in time, for Kal's sake." "[tense music]" "♪" "I think I'm losing my mind." "What are you talking about?" "I keep seeing things." "You mean your memories." "No, these are different, convoluted flashes." "I keep seeing people in hazmat gear." " Hallucinations." " No, there's more to it." "Things have been happening to me that don't make any sense." "One second, I'm one place, the next, I'm somewhere else." "The labels on the pills, the data on all the med monitor, it's all nonsense." "It's the effects of the neurotoxin." "It's messing with your head." "No." "I'm telling you..." "Yeah, whoa, whoa." "Where are you going?" "I'm telling you, look..." "look at that monitor." "Tell me what it says." "You're asking the wrong guy, man." "Believe it or not, I never finished med school." "Pick a pill bottle, any pill bottle." "Read me the list of active ingredients." "Hey..." "You're going to be okay, buddy." "I promise." "See you on the other side." "Maybe you're right." "Yeah." "It's poisoned my mind." "Hey, if it doesn't work and I don't wake up..." "You're gonna wake up." "If I don't, I need you to do something for me." "Anything." "Find my wife." "Tell her I never stopped loving her." "You tell Lara herself when you see her again." "Wait a sec." "Yeah." "How'd you know her name?" "You told us." "No, I didn't." "Yeah, you did." "Six." "[tense music]" "♪" " You're losing him." " I can get him back." " He knows." " Shut up and let me work." "♪ [engine shutting down]" "Come on." "The Android has disabled the "Marauder."" "Look, you need to calm down." "This is the neurotoxin affecting you." "You are not thinking straight." "Yeah, I'm aware of that." "This is all in my head." "You're all in my head." "Six, you're scaring me." "You all tried a little too hard to convince me to give up that location." "We're just trying to help those people." "You?" "Trying to help people out of the goodness of your own heart?" "That alone should have set off the alarm bells." "The neurotoxin has compromised your judgment." "Yeah, that's what I thought at first, but then little things weren't making sense, the labels, the monitors." "I couldn't read them." "I realize now that..." "I can imagine this, and I can imagine all of you." "I just couldn't picture those details." "You're suffering from extreme paranoia, a sign that your condition is worsening." "We need to get you to the infirmary immediately." "I knocked you out." "How?" "You're an android." "That punch shouldn't have even fazed you." "[tense music]" "♪" "You're not real." "No, Six." "None of this is real." "Okay, we're gonna have to take the direct route." "Give us the coordinates." "Where am I?" "What were you doing to me?" "We rescued you from a very bad situation." "All we ask in return is a little information." "Go to hell." "All our attempts at retrieval have failed." "Either you either give up the rebel headquarters, or..." "I will end you right here and now." "Do it." "[gunshot]" "Please!" "I'm just a scientist." "I hate scientists." "[gunshots]" "What is this place?" "It's a Ferrous Corp ship." "We gotta go." "Hey." "Hey." "I thought you died on that planet." "Welcome back, Six." "Thanks." "You okay?" "Hit me." "I'm sorry." "What?" "I just need to know... ugh!" "Ahh, you couldn't have waited till I finished?" " Feel real enough to you?" " Yeah." "You should probably head over to the infirmary, have The Android look you over, check out that nose." "You asked." "What?" "[laughs]" "Huh?" "Huh?" "You suffered minimal exposure, but it doesn't look like there will be any lasting residual effects." "You may feel groggy for a little while, but it will pass." "A few hours ago, I thought I was dying." "Groggy I'll take." "You know, maybe there's a chance others could have survived the attack." "There is no chance." "I have to go back and check." "I need to know." "We scanned for life signs." "I'm sorry." "For what it's worth, we contacted the leaders of the independent colonies using the transmission channels you gave us." " They've been warned." " Good." "Now, I recommend bed rest." " No..." " Don't make me restrain you." "Bed rest it is." "Can I at least get something to eat?" "I'll have Five bring you something." "[exhales]" "Okay, we got him back." "This time, let's make it work." "[tense music]" "♪" "[electronic beep]" "Oh, shit." "Kamal?" " Not now." " Incoming transmission." "I said not now." "It's Commander Nieman." "Gentleman, do we have the information?" "Not yet." "But we're close." "You assured it wouldn't be a problem." "It won't be." "It's just a little... trickier than we'd anticipated." "We've had to increase the level of detail in order to convince the subject that he's..." "The last thing I need is to be managing a war on two fronts." "The initial test on Agent Zero was promising, but this campaign against the rebellion won't be considered a success until they've all been dealt with." "I'm counting on you." "We won't disappoint." "You'd better not." "[knock at door]" "Come in." "I thought you might be hungry, so I made you breakfast." "It's powdered eggs and bacon-flavored dehydrates." " But the salt is real." " [laughs]" "Oh, boy." "Thanks." "Anyway, I should let you rest." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, hang on a sec." "You don't expect me to eat alone, do you?" "So how'd you guys find me?" "Oh, we got a tip... and I think a little lucky." "Finally things go our way for a change, huh?" "Must've been pretty scary having them play with your head like that." "Yeah, but something good came out of it." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "The process of tapping into my mind, somehow unlocked some of my memories." "Really?" "What did you remember?" "I had a wife and son, but I screwed up and drove them away." "I need to find them, make amends." "Hey." "We just received a message." "From?" "It's a coded transmission from the leadership summit, your eyes only." "What is it?" "They're under attack." "They need help." "He's heading for the bridge." "Finally!" "[electronic beeping]" "You're awake." "You're awake." "Lara." "You're back." "I never left." "You were the one that went away on assignment." "We haven't seen you in over two months." "John Anders came by the house." "He told me what happened on that space station, all of those people." "Hyadum-12." "It's okay." "I'm here." "Everything is going to be fine." "I don't want to do this anymore, risking my life, being away from you and Dane." "Then you don't have to." "You can quit." "It's too late." "Of course not." "I already lost you." "No, sweetheart." "We will always be here for you." "We're a family." "[tense music]" "♪" " What's the delay?" " I don't know." " What's happening?" " I don't know!" "Shit." "What's the matter?" "I just had another flashback, which means... this isn't real either." "[ship zapping and whirring]" "[alarm blaring]" "What are you doing?" " I'm ending this." " Six... you're gonna kill us all." "[machine beeping]" "What's happening?" "[gasps]" "His vitals are stable." "Ugh!" "Augh." "[gunshots] [tense music]" "♪" " You killed him." " I didn't mean to." "You killed him, and now Commander Nieman is gonna kill us." "It was an accident." "[electronic beep]" " It's Nieman." " Don't answer." "Gentlemen, what progress?" "I'm assuming by your lack of response, the news isn't positive?" "The test subject is dead, sir." "He was killed in an escape attempt." "That man was our only chance of finding the rebel leadership." "It was an accident." "I'm on my way." "Send me your coordinates." "If I have to ask the crew," "I will be in an even worse mood when I arrive." "Sending coordinates." "See you soon, gentlemen." "He's going to kill us." "I didn't shoot anyone." "I'm a dead man." "[tense music]" "♪" "Okay, I've got the coordinates." "Now I just need to arrange a little pickup." "Six." "Hey, I'm ready to come home now." "So what's the prognosis?" "You've suffered no lasting effects from your exposure to the neurotoxin." " Perfect." " Not quite." "You're dehydrated, and your blood pressure is slightly elevated." "Almost dying will do that to you, I guess." "How did turn the tables on your captors?" "Well, the one with the information was unwilling to cooperate, and the one willing to cooperate had no information, so I had to improvise." "Apparently, there is a fate worse than death, and it's Commander Nieman of Ferrous Corp." "Sources within Novina claim the corporation lost all contact with the colony following the attack." "Meanwhile, in the Alcor sector, Ferrous Corp forces launched coordinated assaults against Traugott assets." "Targets included planetary facilities and orbital platforms." "The death toll is estimated to be in the tens of thousands." "Amid the chaos, representatives for The League of Autonomous Worlds have called for the immediate cessation of hostilities." "This is ridiculous." "It's chaos out there." "It's gonna be chaos in here." "We're out of cream." "You know, when we first remembered our pasts," "I thought we were beyond redemption." "But I'm starting to realize it's the rest of the universe that's screwed up." "Took you long enough." "[chuckles]" "I envy you and your ability to not..." "Care?" "I was going to say "let it get to you."" "Yeah." "How's Sarah?" "When I'm with her, she seems really happy, you know?" "Maybe a little too happy." "I know, that's terrible, isn't it?" "No, of course not." "It's not easy being someone's entire world, you know?" "Why didn't you tell me when we were back on Hyperion-8?" "What was I supposed to say?" "You used to have a happy family life, but you threw it away?" "I'm sorry." "Look, I guess I would've told you eventually, but at the time, I figured you had enough on your plate." "Were you able to get the address?" "Yeah, but you really need to think about this, Kal." "Do you really want to do this?" "Do you really want to do this to them?" "I'm..." "I'm a different man now, a better man." "For my own peace of mind, I need to know." "[light piano music]" "♪" "Did you have fun today?" " Yeah." " Yeah?" "Dad!" "[laughs]" "♪" "You ready?" "Yeah." "♪" "Time to go home." "The independent colonies are safe for now." "The Galactic Authority has sent more ships to patrol the area, but that just opens up potential targets elsewhere." "When this war started, I was all for letting the corporations destroy each other." "But now I thinks it's time we need to choose a side." "Does that mean you're sticking around?" "Unless you've already given my room away." "Mm." "Lucky for you, it's still available." "[chuckles]" "We still don't have a functioning Blink Drive." "That definitely would have made things easier." " Yeah." " We need to get creative, ally ourself with Ferrous Corp's enemies, starting with Mikkei." "They've maintained a neutral position in the ongoing conflict." "Yeah, so far they've stayed out of it, but Truffault has to know that once Ferrous Corp runs the table on its enemies, they're gonna come gunning for Mikkei." "We can't let this galaxy fall for the likes of Ferrous Corp." "We've sacrificed too much to let that happen." "I feel badly for him, knowing what he had and lost." "Sometimes better not to know." "Yeah, I wonder." "Do you know that when Four downloaded his old memories, he started avoiding me, almost like he knew something about my past and he didn't want to put himself in a position so he'd have to tell me." "Almost like he was trying to protect me." "Or maybe you're reading too much into things." "I'm not reading too much into it." "I just can't but wonder what the hell I did that was so terrible." "It doesn't matter." " No." " Mm-mm, not anymore." "Sarah." "Two." "Welcome back." "I'm sorry this visit is a long time in coming." "No need to apologize." "No, of course there is." "You are a guest on my ship." "I should have come sooner." "I have no excuse except to say that..." "Mm, it's been a rough month." "[chuckles] For you and me both." "So Three tells me you experience time a little differently in here." "It's weird." "Minutes can turn into hours, and I won't even notice, but if I stop to think about it, it's like starting the clock, and I am aware of every second." "Hmm." "Well, you've certainly found a beautiful way to pass the time." "Thanks." "It's... it's amazing." "I can turn my environment into anything I want, create a world limited only by my imagination, but it's still not enough." "You're lonely." "Well, if Five could find a way to do this for you, there must be a way for you to reach out when you're having moments like these when you need somebody to talk to." "I don't just need to talk." "I need something I don't have anymore:" "closeness, a sense of community, casual interaction, just the basic ability to connect." "It's something you should never take for granted." "Mm." "[rock music]" "♪" "♪" "♪"
