"I spent over a year studying ancient systems to prepare for the trip." "I was particularly interested in some of your theories on dialing while inside a star." "Wow." "Do you still think there's a chance you could make it work?" "To be honest," "I wasn't really making much progress, so I kind of put it aside." "Well, maybe with Ginn's help, that can change." "I guess it's worth a shot." "Good." "I'll leave you to it." "Have a seat." "Thanks." "[Doors open]" "They let you out." "Yeah." "So... you're not changing."

"Well, we've crunched some numbers, and we think-- what about the weapons systems?" "Still half a dozen gun batteries that are offline." "Well, you told us to postpone the work until we had a greater understanding of the grid that powers the system-- with that many positions down, entire sections of the ship are vulnerable to attack." "Wasn't Dr. Kemp recently injured working on this problem?" "Yeah, there was an unexpected surge in one of the conduits." "There's also the risk of a much more catastrophic overload" "Irrelevant."

"No, what I'm saying is that maybe now's not the best time." "Yeah." "All right." "Well, I, uh..." "[Coughs]" "I've been having this recurring dream, only it's more than a dream." "It's, uh, it's real." "It's about as real as it gets." "Okay." "What's it about?" "The aliens from the other Galaxy, they, uh, catch up to us, they surround the ship, and then they ask me to hand over Chloe." "And, now, the first time, I try to fight them off, the ship gets destroyed." "The second time, I go into a defensive shell, but the ship still gets destroyed." "Wait a minute." "Is that why you ordered Park and her team to resume work on the weapons grid?" "Because of this dream?" "Listen." "There's something else going on here." "I mean, this is like no dream I've ever had before." "I mean, I" " I can feel the floor under my feet," "I can smell the sweat of the people around me," "Camile." "Yeah, yeah." "It's a no-win scenario." "It seems like the only way out would be for you to do the one thing that you don't want to do." "I don't think it's that simple." "Have you even spoken to Chloe since you've confined her in her quarters?" "No." "Well, maybe that would be a good place to start." "[Doors open]" "Hey." "Wow, another visitor." "[Chuckles]" "I've never been so popular." "Well, listen, you know, I'm sorry that I haven't come to see you before." "I've been busy." "Also, it's, uh, it's hard for me." "Because of what you might have to do." "You know, I..." "I was feeling sorry for myself, being stuck in this room, but then I remembered how everyone looked at me when they found out I was still infected." "I think I'm better off in here." "Really?" "You know what, the people on this ship care about you." "They're afraid of me." "I'm afraid of me." "Nobody's given up hope here." "I know." "But if there's no solution, if I keep changing, sooner or later, you won't have a choice." "[Grunts playfully]" "Hey." "Sorry." "So?" "So, what?" "When are you gonna make a move?" "What are you talking about?" "Ginn." "The girl's into you." "And you know this from watching us work together for, what, two days?" "I knew it after 10 minutes." "The girl loves math, Eli." "And if ever you were gonna have a chance with anyone, this is probably it." "Thanks." "Tell you what." "The next time we're together," "I'll arrange to get called away." "Okay." "But don't make it too obvious." "Obvious is good." "Time to man up." "[Brody]:" "Colonel Young, come in." "Colonel Young, this is Brody, in the control interface room." "Please respond." "What's happening?" "We're surrounded by alien ships." "They want us to hand over Chloe." "I suggest shutting down all non-essential systems, devote every scrap of power to the shields." "No, that's not going to work." "More ships are coming." "Well, how could you possibly know that?" "If we power the weapons or the shields or provoke them in any way, they will open fire and destroy all of us." "So, what do we do?" "[Doors open]" "I guess it's time." "Colonel, this is Brody." "You were right." "Another half-dozen ships just dropped out of hyperspace." "Are they sending over a shuttle?" "It's on its way." "Dial back the shield strength over the hull breach." "[Keypad beeping, doors open]" "[Doors lock shut]" "What did you do?" "I didn't have a choice." "You son of a bitch!" "Lieutenant, no!" "No!" "[Brody]:" "Colonel, we've got a problem." "A lot more." "[Young laughing]" "[Electrical system powers down]" "[Young laughing]" "Colonel Young, are you reading me?" "Colonel?" "This is Scott." "What's happening?" "This is Rush." "Power's down all over the ship, including shields." "We can't restore them." "Chloe must have discovered how and passed along the information." "Get down to the armory, break out every weapon we've got." "Organize defense teams." "We're about to be boarded." "Yes, sir." "[Young laughing]" "[Artillery blasting]" "[Greer]:" "We've got another hull breach near the infirmary!" "[Scott]:" "Fall back to my position!" "[Rush]:" "This is Rush." "We have to defend the gate room at all costs!" "[Lt. James]:" "There's too many!" "We can't hold 'em!" "[Static crackles over comm]" "[Sloshing, gulping]" "Colonel?" "Hey." "Hey, what are you doing here?" "Picking up a batch Brody made for me." "Extra strong." "I use it for disinfectant." "You don't look so good." "[Laughs]" "Yeah, I know." "I guess it's that obvious, huh?" "Everett, what if I told you that the baby, our baby, is still alive?" "I mean, I don't know." "Why would-- why would you do that?" "Because I saw her." "Because I held her in my arms and she's beautiful" "T.J..." "It's like nothing you can imagine." "We were on the planet where we left Caine and the others, and the aliens there, they said that they would take care of her." "Caine promised me." "And they sent me back here." "You never left the ship." "I know that-- look, I know." "I know what it sounds like." "And that's why I didn't say anything before, because I knew that you would think I was crazy." "But I'm not." "I'm not crazy, and it wasn't a dream." "Why is it so hard to believe?" "After everything that we've seen since we've been here-- [yelling]:" "Hey, listen to me!" "Just because you want something to be true, it doesn't mean it is, T.J." "Okay?" "Okay." "You listen to me." "I can see where you're going." "I know, because I almost went there." "I'm afraid that you won't come back." "I'm sorry." "[Starts to cry]" "[Beeping]" "That's weird." "What?" "The computer's using a ton of memory running a program I've never even seen before." "Maybe some kind of auto diagnostic?" "I don't..." "I have to ask, what are all these pictures?" "Oh, those are stills from my movie." "My documentary." "I've been trying to keep a record of everything that's been happening to us, using the Kino." "Here." "[Tapping keyboard]" "Oh, see?" "[Brody]:" "Nobody wants to see this." "[Eli]:" "No, no, it's the little things that make all the difference." "[Brody]:" "Fine." "Ancient toilets." "Here we go." "[Eli and Ginn laughing]" "Anyway, you get the idea." "[Lt. James, over comm]:" "Sgt. Greer, come in." "Go ahead." "There's a problem in the mess." "We need your assistance." "On my way." "You're leaving?" "Could take a while." "One second?" "[Keyboard tapping]" "Whoa, whoa." "Uh, I'm not so sure about this." "You'll thank me later." "But what am I supposed to say?" "The girl's from another planet." "I guess I'm supposed to tell you to be yourself, but in your case..." "[Eli's voice]:" "So my mom just left." "It was good to see her, even though she was in Park's body." "Little weird." "Anyway..." "I think it helped." "At least I hope so." "Okay, I got this." "You got this?" "How long are you gonna be?" "How long you gonna need?" "I'll take my time." "[Chuckling]" "It's hard." "You know?" "I mean, I know that we're several billion light years apart, and, well, that may never change..." "But I..." "I just need to know that she's still there." "You know..." "'Cause if she's not..." "Oh God." "...Then I don't have-- sorry." "I" " I didn't know that it was going to be anything that personal." "No, no, that's-- that's not your fault." "Real smooth, though, huh?" "A grown man crying about his mom." "Suave." "[Sighs]" "I might as well just get Greer to come back." "What do you mean?" "[Sighs] Never m-mind." "[Whirring as ship drops out of FTL]" "Colonel?" "Colonel, are you in there?" "Yeah." "What do-- what do you need?" "Uh, the ship, it dropped out, but there's no gates in range." "Brody says we're just drifting." "[Slurring]:" "Well, that doesn't sound so bad." "Except there's no countdown clock." "We have no idea how long it's going to last." "You figure it out." "[Doors closing]" "Sir?" "Problems?" "Well, the ship doesn't drop out of FTL for no reason." "Unless you tell it to." "Yeah, well this time, it wasn't me, and I can't find anything wrong with navigation or propulsion." "Maybe you need to look somewhere else." "As far as I can tell, there's nothing interfering with the normal operation of the FTL drive." "The ship just doesn't want to go anywhere." "What about a dial-in?" "Gate's quiet." "Where's Young?" "He's not feeling well." "All right, what's new?" "So far, we've got nothing." "What about you?" "Eli?" "Well, I've been working with that Lucian Alliance girl, Ginn?" "Actually, it's gone a little bit beyond just working together." "I don't want to jinx it, but she's" "Eli." "Anyway, we've been running a series of programs that were designed for modeling." "You know, simulation." "It was really sluggish." "I couldn't figure out why." "And then I realized that the computer was running a simulation of its own." "What kind of simulation?" "I just figured that out now." "It's a battle scenario." "The Destiny drops out of FTL, and then it's immediately surrounded by alien ships." "It's run through several different variations, different scenarios, but it always ends badly." "Oh, my God." "Are you talking about the aliens from the other galaxy, the ones that took Chloe and Rush?" "Yeah, same guys." "Camile, what is it?" "A battle simulation." "Exactly." "Extremely complex, modeled down to the last detail, and always with an unfortunate result." "Well, it's interesting, but what's it got to do with the ship dropping out?" "Look closer." "Something about this program is overriding normal operations." "Which leaves only one question." "Why?" "Okay, so you're telling me the ship is affecting the Colonel's dreams?" "It's the only explanation." "It's not impossible." "Brain waves are just electrical impulses, so theoretically, they could be manipulated, if you knew how." "Maybe it's Destiny's way of warning us." "What if it knows the aliens are coming?" "No, there's no way they could have followed us." "No, I told you already," "I don't remember anything about the blackouts." "Look, I need you to think, Chloe." "This is very important." "[Sighs]" "When James was under the influence of those aliens, she managed to send them some kind of a signal." "Is it possible you could have done the same thing?" "I don't remember." "[Comm crackles]:" "Eli, this is Scott." "Prep the weapons." "Bypass any batteries that aren't a hundred percent, devote the remaining power to the rest." "Shut down all non-essential systems and put everything you can into the shields." "Understood." "Going to patrol in teams of three." "Lieutenant James here has your assignments." "Now, if they do come, it is a pretty safe bet they are going to try and board this ship." "Makes us the last line of defense." "Any questions?" "All right." "Dismissed." "Okay, let's go." "Camile, I need you to organize the civilians." "I want everyone in designated areas till further notice." "There's something else we need to talk about." "Can it wait?" "No." "I know what you're going to say." "[Sighs] Where is he?" "I can handle this." "[Rush]:" "Well, that's the point." "You can, evidently he can't." "You have to assume command, officially." "I can't do that." "Well, what if this is a test?" "These dreams the Colonel's been having-- a test of his emotional stability." "A test he's failing." "Where is this coming from?" "Think about it-- what is the Colonel doing right now?" "He's locked himself away, he's shut down." "And at the exact same time, the ship came to a dead stop, and now we're floating aimlessly in empty space." "Destiny is beginning to understand us-- who we are, what makes us tick." "What, you're telling me the ship wants me to replace him?" "No, no, it's not as if it has desires or emotions." "It has no personality." "But it is capable of analyzing all manner of sensory input." "It knows we're here." "It's beginning to understand what effect we might be having." "Why not one of you?" "Well, we've been down that road before." "None too successful." "[Exhales] I thought this was about aliens." "I thought this was a warning to prepare us for an attack." "Either way, a warning, a test, we need a strong leader right now." "I don't like it any more than you do, but I don't think you have a choice." "Colonel?" "[Pounding on door]" "Colonel, I'm not going away till you open this door!" "I brought you some tea." "It's really strong stuff, closest thing to coffee we had." "Oh, thanks, Lieutenant." "I'll pass on the tea." "Sir, we have a situation here." "You need to clean yourself up and get back out there." "What are you doing?" "Are you giving me an order, Lieutenant?" "Sir, these dreams you're having, the battle scenario-- it's the ship." "It's affecting your brain waves." "It's a simulation." "It's a simulation?" "What does that even mean?" "Eli found the program." "It is the exact same thing you described to Camile." "It can't be a coincidence." "I guess the ship has some sense of humor." "Yeah." "She thinks your reaction, the fact that you've-- well, you've given up, it's the reason why we have dropped out, why we are stuck out here in the middle of nowhere." "Now, if you pull yourself together, you start acting like a real commander, maybe we can get going again." "Or maybe that's just Destiny's way of telling me that I need to be replaced." "That's what Rush said." "[Chuckling] That's what Rush said..." "But I'm not going to do that." "Are you in love with Chloe?" "It's a simple question." "Do you love her?" "Yes." "Yes." "So how are you going to feel when I have to drop her off this ship, put her on some rock, and you know it's coming, she knows it's coming." "We all know it's coming, but I got to do it." "You still going to look up to me then, you still going to think, hey!" "Tell everyone what a great commander I am?" "Are you, Lieutenant?" "Don't... don't do this." "I'm sorry that you didn't have a father growing up, but I didn't volunteer for that either." "There you go." "Now we're talking." "Hit me." "Hit me!" "No one asked for this, but you are the commanding officer." "You don't get to feel sorry for yourself." "And if you don't like it, too bad." "I killed Riley." "That wasn't your fault." "I know it wasn't my fault." "No, he knew it." "That's-- he didn't want to die alone." "That's why he asked me." "But I killed him." "I suffocated him with my own hands." "On top of everything else, it's just..." "You know, it adds-- it adds up." "I need you to leave." "Look, you're right." "I couldn't do it, live with the burden, every day." "That is not me..." "Or T.J., or Camile." "Rush could do it." "For Rush, it wouldn't be a burden, and that is why we need you, because you feel it, but not so much you can't get up and do it all over again the next day." "Really?" "You sure?" "You sure about that, Lieutenant?" "A real leader, a good commander, is not so callous that he stops caring, just enough so he can keep on going." "And we both know you are a good commander." "It is never going to stop hurting." "That's the whole point." "For the sake of everyone on this ship, you are going to have to live with it." "[Doors open, close]" "[♪]" "...But we've got five down by the mess." "So if we take..." "Mr. Brody, what's our status?" "Uh, well, uh, still no sign of the aliens." "The ship's main weapon is online, and we've diverted as much power as we can to the shields." "Sir, we have all available military personnel patrolling the gaps between the active weapons batteries, but it's a lot of real estate." "We could go to two-man teams, cover a little more ground, but we'd be stretching ourselves pretty thin." "Well, let's do it." "If there is a breach," "I would rather be on it fast with a little less firepower than the other way around." "Also, let's break out whatever spare ordnance we have from the Lucian Alliance and arm as many civilians as possible." "Well, they don't have a lot of training." "I'll command them myself." "We'll stick to defensive positions between here and the gate room." "They'll be fine." "Yes, sir." "Anything else?" "[Whirring as ship jumps to FTL]" "We just jumped." "We're back in FTL." "It's good to have you back, sir." "Hey, I'm happy as the next guy that we're back on track." "I'm just saying that I'm not so comfortable knowing that Destiny can get in our heads like that." "I don't want to start second guessing my own dreams." "Well, what have you been dreaming about?" "That's not the point." "At least now we know once and for all that we got the right man in command." "You were there." "Tell 'em." "Young showed up, started giving orders, and the ship just went." "If someone has a better explanation," "I'd like to hear it." "Congratulations." "Don't feel much like talking right now." "You managed to bypass the simulation and get the ship going." "Well, what choice did I have?" "Lieutenant Scott wasn't going to step up." "I couldn't leave us just sitting there." "But you haven't solved the problem, and yet you're pressing ahead." "Isn't that a little dangerous?" "Destiny was evaluating Colonel Young's ability to command the crew, but ultimately," "I control the ship." "And the aliens?" "They were never a threat." "If Chloe had managed to send a signal telling them our position, it would have logged on that screen right there." "Maybe..." "But just because one threat is behind you doesn't mean there isn't another ahead." "[♪]"
