"Not rumors." "Aye, lieutenant." "Prep your teams." "Dismissed." "Gunny." "Up here." "I know that you and your team did a rotation on the  Donnie." "I knew people on that ship too." "Captain yao was a friend." "But still, nobody knows what really happened." "We know those stealths were earth-built." "So says Fred Johnson, mouthpiece for opa terrorists." "And now earth is accusing him." "We will not be led into war on anyone's leash." "I was a private during the vesta blockade." "Half the earth's fleet was headed to Mars, to annihilate its former colony." "If they couldn't have what we built, they were going to pound it back into dust." "Luckily for everyone, cooler heads prevailed." "We've managed to avoid a shooting war with earth up till now." "That's our job." "To make sure that that war never happens." "And because of vesta, we pushed back the terraforming project." "Fifty years and 50 more." "All those resources to the military." "Now, none of us will live to see an atmosphere over Mars." "That was the price." "But it's still worth fighting for." "Be safe down there." "Sadavir:" "There'sbeenadevelopment." "The martians dispatched a ship to Phoebe station," "I know." "What are you doing about it?" "Well, that depends." "I'm assuming there's nothing left to find there." "Is there?" "Routine scrutiny would've passed muster, but this feels urgent." "Like the martians know something." "You need to get boots on Phoebe first." "That sounds like your mess." "And sending a u.N. Warship to a meaningless outpost like Phoebe will just draw more attention to it." "If you want a weapons system from my project, then it's our mess." "Sell the u.N. On a story." "Make it stick." "Sadavir:" "We need to talk about Eros." "Mars and earth may be busy pointing guns at each other, but those quarantine beacons won't keep people away from Eros forever." "There's already a lot more do-gooders than we expected." " Next will be the looters." " Then get rid of them." "Yes." "Of course." "I'll sacrifice what's left of my credibility for a few short-term trinkets." "(Chuckles) Sadavir." "You're witnessing a discovery that could rewrite the story of humankind, but your imagination takes you as far as putting the boot heel to your former colony." "(Chuckles)" "This was Julie's spot." "Far from the house, where no one could find her." "Where she could find her adventures." "She taught herself to shoot a bow and arrow at this tree." "Nine years old." "Just woke up one morning, and taught herself." "My Julie." "Even losing her was worth it." "She's a sacred part of it now." "So don't talk to me about sacrifice ever again." "Naomi:" "This'll kill any cancer that dares try to grow inside you." "Miller:" "Ow!" "How long I got to wear this?" "Naomi:" "Rest of your days." "But you won't be able to procreate." "I'm sorry." "It's all right, I put swimmers on ice in the Navy." "(Grunts)" "I'd never want to see another one of me running around anyway, so..." "If you need a few more days, we..." "No, no." "A ship needs a captain." "I don't know how you've managed without me." "Yeah, we've all been a wreck." "(Claps) All right." "Now that we're all done being irradiated," "I'm think I'm gonna go." "I'm gonna go check out this famous coffee machine you keep talking about." "Holden:" "Other way!" "(Grunts)" "(Machine whirring)" "If you and I have something we need to get sorted out, we should get to that." "Yeah?" "We're here now." "Your pal, semi?" "You're upset about that, right?" "I had nothing against him." "I thought he was a decent guy." " Decent guy?" " Yeah." "Do you think you would've got off Eros without him?" " No." " Ah." "But he wasn't a good enough friend to wait for you." "No, no, no." "Semi was right." "It was stupid to wait." "But Naomi made the call, end of story for me." "And when your pal pulled a gun, might as well have shot himself in the head..." "Here's what I see, okay?" "You seem kind of like a trigger-happy whack job to me." "So, let me lay it on the table for you, all right?" "You shot my friend," "like some street rat." " Wow." " So..." "If you need to square up, you know where I am." "Otherwise, you should move on." "Because you're poisoning the air on..." "Stay down, Miller." "(Panting)" "(Chuckles)" "(Choking)" "Naomi:" "Amos!" "Amos!" "No!" "Amos!" "Amos, stop." "Amos, stop it." "(Gasping)" "I told him to stay down." "Okay, okay." "Just go." "Go." "Are you okay?" "(Muttering indistinctly)" "(Sighing)" "Watch the deck." "(Knocking)" "Come in." "Chrisjen." "Thank god." "Are you all right?" "Perfect excuse not to quit drinking, huh?" "This is our fault." "We put you in the crosshairs." "We never should have made you the public face" " against Fred Johnson." " It was my choice." "Listen, we're going to beef up your security detail..." "I'm already taking care of that." "Intel says it was the black sky faction of the opa." "They caught wind of an assassination plot." "An occupational hazard in my family." "Maybe you should take a few days." "At least skip the meeting." "No." "I'll be in in five minutes." "Sadavir:" "They'remobilizingforwar ." "Martian ships are moving throughout the system." "The  morrigan to titan." "The  africanus to callisto." "And the  scirocco to Phoebe." "What are you recommending?" "That we secure all our bases in the outer planets and head off their ships wherever we can." "Souther:" "Most of those bases are low-level research outposts or cargo waystations." "If we place our ships in the paths of theirs..." "They'll know we're ready for any planned acts of aggression." "We share all those bases." "They have no right!" "Mars doesn't want war." "They want to get back to terraforming and building domes for their people." "Sir, if we de-escalate," "I am convinced that they'll respond in kind." "And erode our position if Mars decides not to give peace a chance?" "Sir, we're the most powerful nation in the system." "We need to act like that." "Pride isn't power." "And what vast font of battlefield wisdom are you drawing from, admiral?" "I advise that we deploy our fleet to secure any base that might become a martian foothold." "Madam." "Do you concur?" "I do." "Re-deploy the fleet." "(Knocking on door)" "Naomi:" "Am I bothering you?" "(Spits) Yeah." "I was just, um..." "Organizing all my stuff here." "Then I realized..." "I don't have any stuff." "This thing with you and Amos..." "I'm pretty sure he's not your fella, right?" "Sematimba was a good man." "He's more like your kid." "Your 200 pound, homicidal kid..." "Caught in a terrible moment, and he did what he thought he had to." "So did Amos." "Antenna's busted." "Amos is different." "Yeah." "Okay, very different." "But he's not crazy and he's not evil." "He's just always needed someone to help him out with the world." "And he picked you." "Congrats." "Do you know that old story, Pinocchio?" "(Mumbles) No." "No, I don't." "Never mind then." "Oh, I get it." "I think." "You're, uh..." "Kind of like his guide star, right?" "Lighting the way, and all, through the dark." "Like Julie is to you." "How long, you and her?" "Never met her." "I only saw her that one time." "(Miller grunts)" "After they'd already killed her." "(Sighs)" "I spent a lifetime watching all the evil shit people did to each other." "Nothing "got to me" anymore." "Holden was shocked by Eros." "I was shocked it hadn't happened a long time ago." "But Julie..." "I wake up some nights, and I see her standing right there." "(Chuckles)" "I know it's bullshit, but... (Sighs) She's right there." "She takes my hand." "She tells me," ""you belong with me."" "I'm pretty sure I don't belong here." "(Sighs)" "This ship." "(Groans)" "So you're leaving us already?" "You gonna just walk out into space?" "(Chuckles)" "What kind of pathetic belters are we?" "(Exhales)" "We used to be a lot better at losing." "Then we need to stick together." "Yamseng." "Man:" "The  unn Nathan hale is on a direct course to Phoebe station." "When we accelerated, they matched." "And now the  Nathan hale is burning us." "At this rate they're going to beat us there." "Why would earth suddenly care about Phoebe station?" "Must be something there they don't want us to find." "But command was unequivocal." "Under no circumstances are we to allow Phoebe to fall under u.N. Control." "Prepare your team for drop." "Gunny:" "Who's gonna feast on earth's sky" " and drink their rivers dry?" " All:" "Mmc!" "Who's gonna stomp their mountains" " into fine martian dust?" " All:" "Mmc!" "Till the rains fall hard on Olympus mons," " who are we?" " All:" "Mmc!" " I can't hear you!" " All:" "Mmc!" " Who are we?" " All:" "Mmc!" "I got a nice little resting spot for that nasty blue goo." "Howyoudoingout there?" "Naomi:" "Good." "The proximity detectors are ready to go." "Now if anyone comes near this missile, we'll know it." "(Grunts)" "Naomi:" "You okay there?" "I think all that radiation failed to give me superpowers." "Naomi:" "Usually, when we're in dangerous situations, youhideyournerves by asking weird, inappropriate questions." "Holden:" "Do I?" "Naomi:" "Mmm." "Naomi:" "I hope that hasn't been irradiated out of you." "Wassortof endearing." "No." "No,I don'tthinkithas." "So..." " (Drilling)" "Do you like space gladiator movies?" "Alex:" "Hey, I just lost Holden's Mike." "Can you hear me through the mask?" "Yeah." "I can only imagine what you saw on Eros." "Or what it was like to nearly die that way." "We did not choose this, but this is our fight now." "We're the only ones who know what's going on down there." "The only ones with a chance to stop it." "Tell me that you're okay." "This crew is depending on me." "You've put your lives in my hands." "I'm okay." "(Fast beeping)" "Ha ha!" "(Exhales)" "Here, here." "(Sighs)" "(Winces)" "Oh." " Sorry." " It's all right." "Sorry." "What the hell?" "This is a ground operation, why are we firing missiles?" "Command must have forgot to check with us first, private." "Game faces on." "We still have our orders." "Man:" "Unn command confirms that the mcrn scirocco firedfivemissiles inresponse totheNathanhale's hard-burntowardsPhoebe." "Man:" "My god, they've done it." "Not yet." "It takes two to play war." "There's a 20 minute delay from the a.O." "By the time we get a full assessment, the  hale and the  scirocco could both be dust." "We have to anticipate the worst." "Phoebe's a backwater science station." "What are they trying to protect?" "It doesn't matter." "They're making a move." "As we speak, the martians could be preparing a strike all over the system." "Have any of their other ships changed course?" "Or launched?" "Or done anything provocative?" "Madam, by the time you see it on that display, it will be too late..." "I know how the f... ing thing works." "Answer my question." "As of 20 minutes ago, no." "That doesn't sound like a first strike to me." "The missiles are a message to back off." "Nothing more." "The captain of the  hale will likely fire back on the  scirocco, as he's authorized to do." "The  mcrn will retaliate." "Phoebe may be the spark, but it will not end there." "The captain of the  hale knows what's at stake." "He's a man of restraint." "He's one of our finest." "You know captain yvgeny?" "Since he was a little know-it-all at the academy, debating me in philosophy." "I promise you, sir, he is the same wise man he was back then." "The wise thing to do right now is to target the  mcrn fleet." "System-wide." "Mars isn't stupid enough to start a war that will end civilization over a rathole like Phoebe." "Let this saber-rattling play out." "We'll hold, until we hear from the  hale." "Man:" "God have mercy on us all." "I didn't know we shared captain yvgeny as a friend." "An exceptional man." "Yes." "Who never went to the academy." "(Beeping)" "Man:" "Command, theNathanhalehas  not  firedonthescirocco." "Their missiles were not intended for us." "I repeat, their missiles were not intended for us." "(All murmuring in relief)" "Command, be advised, we are standing down." "The martians were targeting Phoebe research station, which sustained multiple direct hits." "The ice moon fractured under the barrage and the fragments spiraled into saturn." "It'scompletelygone." "Miller:" "Wish I had your hat for you,  amigo." "Are we even now, or, uh..." "I still owe you one, don't I?" "We'll figure it out." "Alex!" "Alex:" "Yeah." "What's the emergency?" "Okay, it's kind of an emergency." "So, listen." "I'm thinking to myself, I'm thinking, how often do we all just hang out together and just talk, you know, without work?" "No, no, without work." "Hey!" "Listen, listen, listen." "So I'm thinking to myself, and I say to myself, "self"," ""we ought to just do that, right?"" "So." "Vee-o-walla!" " (Giggles)" " That's lasagna." "It's  "voila"." "Sit down." "So that, my hungry friends, is a kamal family recipe." "It's a staple of the mariner valley." "Now, granted, we had to improvise a little bit, without any real cheese, or wheat, or tomatoes or anything." "Damn, Alex, you're getting us really excited about this lasagna." "Now, don't go judging it before you taste it, earther." "It's not bad, martian." "You know, I remember a time on ceres when there was real cheese?" "They busted that black-market curd-cartel on ninth level." "Real cheddar, from real cows." "Damn, they had cheese in the street for weeks," "I remember that." "Coming out of every nook and cranny." "Bricks of cheese and wheels of cheese, and peace, love and brotherhood, as long as that lasted." "Then, it was gone." "I busted that cartel." "Yeah, it was me and star helix." "We confiscated about one thousand kilos of high-grade cheddar." "It was bound for some luxury spa on titan." "That stuff was out of Vermont, too." "Craziest thing, though, the whole shipment disappeared from the evidence lock-up that night." " (Chuckles)" " So, it just vanished." "Yeah, the, um..." "Security cameras shorted out." "(Naomi giggles)" "What?" "Nobody saw nothin'." "(Chuckles)" "So the governor of ceres gathers all the star helix cops together for an ass-tearing." "This guy wants to know what is the plan for catching these dubious, nefarious..." " (Naomi giggles) - ..." "Cheese thieves, right?" "So he's there, he's tearing us a new one." "Meanwhile, the whole room stinks like cheese farts." "(All laughing)" " (Clears throat)" " I think I know that governor." "Teddy the detector, this guy was not!" "Who?" "Teddy the detector!" "Yeah!" "The little kid, the little robot, teaches you about the air sensors, no?" "Naomi:" "I think I'm too young." "Teddy the detector detects..." "Goddamn, that was great cheese." "You're right." "Gunny (On tablet):" "Cover me!" "Grab target data when those bastards try to light me up." "Man:" "Got it, gunny!" "Travis, right flank!" "Hillman, left!" "Travis:" "Roger, right." "Hillman:" "Roger, left." "Targets incoming on my nine, high..." "Sutton:" "Same old shit, "hurry up and wait," huh?" "Look, gunny, we..." "We got an intel flash the  hale was carrying 10 times our number." "We weren't going to send you down to a slaughter." "One of us is worth 20 of them." "They wanted something on Phoebe and we vaporized it." "I'd say the fight's coming, soon enough." "I hope you're wrong." "Earth knows the price of escalation as well as we do." "You said our job is to prevent a war with earth." "Ever wonder if we've got it backwards?" "Maybe we can't have the dream of Mars, until we've had that war..." "They're lighting her up!" "Three tangos painted, gunny!" "Four!" "(Voices on tablet continue indistinctly)"
