"Oh, Rickston, did you get that message?" "No, what message?" "Shut up." "Bannakaffalatta made it!" "I'm small enough, I can get through." "Careful." "I'm fine." "Thing is, how are Mr and Mrs Fatso going to get through that gap?" "We make the gap bigger." "So start!" "Hey, hey!" "Come on, sweetheart." "Don't listen to him." "No, but it's all my fault, though." "The tickets." "We won them, fair and square." "I know." "I never told you..." "I dialled the competition line 5,000 times." "That's 5,000 credits, I might as well have paid for the tickets." "I've been hiding the vone bill for months now." "5,000 credits?" "You spent 5,000 credits?" "Don't hate me." "What's so funny?" "5,000?" "We'll never pay that off." "I know!" "We'll have to work for 20 years!" "You mad bloody woman!" "You're not cross?" "Does it matter?" "Well, look at us!" "You drive me barmy!"

"Listen, everyone's heading for the bridge, don't go portside, there's no air, can you head starboard?" "We're stuck, the doors have sealed, we can't get out." "No, wait a minute." "It's opening!" "There's someone on the other side!" "Host, we've got Host!" "The Host are still working!" "That's brilliant, tell them to clear a path to the bridge." "Did you get that?" "Kitchen five, report." "Hello, kitchen five?" "SCREAMS AND SHOUTS" "Report!" "Almost done!" "Good, good, good!" "Mr Frame, how's things?" "Doctor..." "I've got life-signs all over, but they're going out, one by one."

"Mr Van Hoff, I know we've only just met but you'll have to excuse me." "Got you!" "Doctor, come on!" "Get through!" "Information override!" "What's the origin of your command structure?" "I can't hold it!" "Information deck 31." "Thank you!" "Let go!" "Morvin, look!" "Food!" "Oh, great, someone's happy." "Don't have any, then!" "SPEAKING TUBE WHISTLES" "SPEAKING TUBE WHISTLES Mr Frame?" "Are you still there?" "Yes, sir." "But I've got Host outside, I've sealed the door." "They've been programmed to kill, why?" "That's not the only problem, Doctor." "I had to use a maximum deadlock on the door." "Which means... no-one can get in." "I'm sealed off." "Even if you can fix the Titanic, 'you can't get to the bridge.' Yeah." "Right." "Fine!" "One problem at a time." "What is on deck 31?" "That's down below, it's nothing..." "It's just the Host Storage Deck, that's where we keep the robots." "But what's that?" "D' you see?" "That panel of black, it's registering... nothing." "No power, no heat, no light." "'I've never seen it before.' 100% shielded, what's down there?" "I'll try intensifying the scanner." "Let me know if you find anything." "And keep those engines going!" "Saved you some."

"Must be well past midnight," "Earth time." "Christmas Day." "So it is." "Merry Christmas." "This Christmas thing, what's it all about?" "Long story." "I should know, I was there." "I got the last room." "But if the planet's waking up, can't we signal them?" "They could send up a rocket or something." "They don't have spaceships." "No, I've read about it, they have the shuffles." "Space shuffles." "Mr Copper, this degree in Earthonomics, where's it from?" "Honestly?" "Just between us." "Mrs Golightly's Happy Travelling University And Dry Cleaners." "D' you..." "You lied to the company?" "To get the job?" "I wasted my life on Sto." "I was a travelling salesman, always on the road, and I reached retirement with nothing to show for it, not even a home." "And Earth sounded so... exotic." "Mm, yeah, I suppose it is, yeah." "How come you know it so well?" "I was sort of, um..." "A few years ago, I was sort of made, well..." "Sort of homeless, and..." "There was the Earth." "The thing is, if we survive this, there'll be police, and all sorts of investigations..." "Now the minimum penalty for space lane fraud is ten years in jail." "Well, I'm an old man," "I won't survive ten years!" "BANGING" "BANGING Host!" "Move!" "Come on!" "Is that the only way across?" "On the other hand, it is a way across." "The engines are open." "Nuclear Storm drive." "Soon as it stops, the Titanic falls." "But that thing, it'll never take our weight." "You're going last, mate." "It's nitrofine metal." "It's stronger than it looks." "All the same, Rickston's right, me and Foon should go la..." "HE SCREAMS Morvin!" "I told you!" "I told you!" " Just shut up, shut up!" " Bring him back!" "Can't you bring him back?" "Bring him back, Doctor!" "I can't, I'm sorry, I can't." "You promised me!" "I know, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." "Doctor, I rather think those things have got our scent." "I'm not waiting." "Careful!" "Take it slowly!" "EXPLOSION" "Vot help me..." "You're OK!" "Step at a time." "Come on." "You can do it." "...kill, kill..." "They're getting nearer." "I've got to seal us in..." "Leaving us trapped, wouldn't you say?" "Never say trapped." "Just... inconveniently circumstanced." "Oh!" "I'm OK..." "Maybe he's all right, maybe there's a gravity curve down there, or something, maybe he's just unconscious..." "I'm sorry, Foon." "He's gone." "What am I gonna do without him?" "Yes!" "Oh, yes!" "Who's good?" "!" "Bannakaffalatta, you go next." "Bannakaffalatta small!" "Slowly!" "They've found us!" "Astrid, get across, right now." "What about you?" "Just do it, go on!" "Mr Copper, we can't wait, after you." "Don't argue!" "Foon, you've got to get across right now." "What for?" "What am I going to do without him?" "Doctor!" "The door's locked!" "Just think, what would he want, eh?" "He don't want nothing, he's dead!" "Doctor!" "I can't open the door!" "We need the whirring key thing of yours." "I can't leave her!" "She'll get us all killed if we can't get out!" "Mrs Van Hoff!" "I am coming back for you." "All right?" "Too many people!" "Oi!" "Don't get spiky with me." "Keep going!" "It's gonna fall!" "It's just settling." "Keep going." "POUNDING AT DOOR STOPS" "They've stopped." "Gone away?" "Why would they give up?" "Never mind that, keep coming!" "But where have they gone?" "Where are the Host?" "I'm afraid we forgot the traditions of Christmas... that angels have wings." "Information." "Kill." "Arm yourself!" "All of you!" "Argh!" "Ohhh!" "I can't..." "Bannakaffalatta, stop!" "Bannakaffalatta proud!" "Bannakaffalatta... cyborg!" "Electromagnetic pulse took out the robotics!" "Oh, Bannakaffalatta, that was brilliant!" "He's used all his power." "Did good?" "You saved our lives." "Bannakaffalatta happy." "We can recharge you, get you to a power point, plug you in." "Too late." "No, but you've got to get me that drink, remember?" "Pretty girl." "I'm sorry, forgive me..." "Leave him alone." "It's the EMP transmitter, he'd want us to use it." "I used to sell these things, they'd always give me a bed for the night, in the Cyborg Caravans." "Good people." "But if we can recharge it, we can use it as a weapon against the rest of the Host." "Bannakaffalatta might have saved us all." "D' you think?" "Try telling him that." "Information." "Reboot." "Use the EMP!" "It's dead." "It's gotta have emergency...!" "No!" "Hold on!" "Override!"

"You've been ordered to kill the survivors, but why?" "Information." "No witnesses." "But this ship's gonna kill everyone on Earth, the human race has nothing to do with the Titanic, that contravenes your orders!" "Information." "Incorrect." "But..." "Why destroy the Earth?" "Information." "It is the plan." "What plan?" "Information." "Protocol grants you only three questions, these three questions have been used." "Well, you could've warned me!" "Information." "Now you will die." "You're coming with me." "NO!" "No more." "Get yourselves up to reception one, once you're there, Mr Copper, try to find a way of transmitting an SOS." "Astrid, take this, powered up, it'll take out Host within 50 yards, but then it needs 60 seconds to recharge." "Rickston, take this..." "I've pre-set it, just hold down that button, it'll open the doors." "Do NOT lose it, got that?" "Now go and open the next door." "Go on, go!" "All right!" "Mr Copper, I need you fighting fit." "Astrid, where's the power points?" "Under the comms." "When it's ready, that blue light comes on, there." "You're talking as if you're not coming with us." "I'm gonna find out what's on deck 31." "What if you meet a Host?" "Well, I'll just... have some fun!" "Sounds like you do this kind of thing all the time." "Not by choice." "All I do is travel, that's what I am, just a traveller." "Imagine it!" "No tax, no bills, no boss." "Just the open sky." "I'm sort of... unemployed now." "I was thinking, that blue box is kind of small, but..." "I could squeeze in it." "Like a stowaway." "It's not always safe." "So you need someone to take care of you." "I've got no-one back on Sto, no family." "Just me." "So what d' you think?" "Can I come with you?" "Yeah." "I'd like that, yeah." "EXPLOSION" "Mr Frame, are you still with us?" "It's the engines, sir." "Final phase!" "There's nothing more I can do, we've only eight minutes left." "Don't worry, I'll get there." "But the bridge is sealed off!" "Yeah, yeah!" "Working on it!" "I'll get there, Mr Frame." "Somehow!" "All charged up!" "Mr Copper, look after her." "Astrid, look after him." "Rickston, erm..." "Look after yourself." "And I'll see you again." "I promise." "Hold on." "There's an old tradition on Planet Sto..." "I have really got to go." "Just wait a minute." "Yeah, that's a... very old tradition, yeah." "See you later." "Oh, yes." "Do it!" "Wait, wait!" "Security Protocol One!" "D' you hear me?" "One!" "One!" "OK." "That gives me three questions." "Three questions to save my life, am I right?" "Information." "Correct." "No, that wasn't one of them, I didn't mean it, that's not fair!" "Can I start again?" "Information." "No." "No, no, no, that wasn't a question either!" "Blimey." "One question left." "One question." "So!" "You've been given orders to kill the survivors, but survivors must therefore be passengers or staff, but not me, I'm not a passenger, I'm not staff, go on, scan me, you must have bio-records, no such person on board, I don't exist," "therefore, you can't kill me, therefore, I'm a stowaway, and stowaways should be arrested and taken to the nearest figure of authority, and I reckon the nearest figure of authority is on deck 31." "Final question - am I right?" "!" "Information." "Correct." "Brilliant!" "Take me to your leader!" "I've always wanted to say that." "Rickston, seal the doors, make the room secure." "Mr Copper, keep an eye on the Host, I need to check the computer, we need that SOS!" "Bridge... this is Reception One." "Who's that?" "Astrid Peth" " I was with the Doctor." "Tell me, can you divert power to the teleport system?" "No way." "I'm using everything for the engines." "It's just one trip, I need to get to deck 31." "And I'm telling you, no!" "Mr Frame." "This is for the Doctor." "He's gone down there, on his own, and I..." "I can't just leave him." "'He's done everything he can to save us... '" "It's time we did something to help him." "'Giving you power.'" "Mr Copper." "I'm going to find him." "Good luck." "Wow." "Now... that is what you'd call a fixer-upper." "Come on, then, Host with the most." "This ultimate authority of yours, who is it?" "Oh, that's clever." "That's an Omnistate Impact Chamber." "Indestructible!" "You could survive anything, in there, you could sit through a supernova." "Or a shipwreck." "But only one person could have the power and the money to hide themselves on board like this." "And I should know, cos..." "My name is Max." "It really does that?" "!" "Who the hell is this?" "I'm the Doctor, hello!" "Information." "Stowaway." "Well..." "Kill him." "Oh, no, no, no, no, wait!" "But you can't, not now, come on!" "Max!" "You're giving me so much good material!" "Like... how to get a head in business." "D' you see?" "Head?" "Head?" "Head?" "No?" "Ho, ho!" "The office joker." "I like a funny man." "No-one's been funny with me for years." "I can't think why." "176 years of running the company have taken their toll." "Yeah, but... nice wheels." "No." "A life-support system, in a society that despises cyborgs." "I've had to hide away for years, running the company by hologram." "Host!" "Situation report!" "Information." "Titanic is still in orbit." "Let me see..." "We should've crashed by now, what's gone wrong?" "The engines are still running, they should have stopped!" "When they do, Earth gets roasted..." "What's Earth got to do with it?" "This interview is terminated." "No, no, no, no!" "But hold on, hold on, wait!" "I can work it out, it's like a task, I'm your apprentice, just watch me..." "So!" "The business is failing, you wreck the ship, that makes things even worse..." "Oh!" "Yes!" "No." "Yes!" "The business isn't failing, it's failed, past tense!" "My own board voted me out, stabbed me in the back." "If you had a back." "So!" "You scupper the ship, wipe out any survivors, just in case anyone's rumbled you... and the board find their shares halved in value." "Oh, but that's not enough!" "No." "Cos if a Max Capricorn ship hits the Earth, it destroys an entire planet..." "Outrage back home, scandal!" "The business is wiped out!" "And... the whole board thrown in jail, for mass murder." "While you sit there, safe inside the Impact Chamber." "I have men waiting to retrieve me from the ruins, and enough off world accounts to retire me to the beaches of Penhaxico Two." "Where the ladies, so I'm told, are very fond of... metal." "So that's the plan." "A retirement plan!" "2, 000 people on this ship, six billion underneath us, all of them slaughtered, and why?" "Because Max Capricorn is a loser!" "I never lose!" "You can't even sink the Titanic!" "Oh, but I can, Doctor!" "I can cancel the engines from here." "SIREN WAILS" "SIREN WAILS COMPUTER: 'Engines closing.'" "No, no, no, no, no, no!" "NO!" "'Engines closing.'" "What's happening?" "You can't do this!" "Host!" "Hold him!" "Not so clever now, Doctor." "A shame we couldn't work together, you're rather good." "All that banter, yet not a word wasted." "Time for me to retire." "The Titanic is falling." "The sky will burn." "Let the Christmas inferno commence." "Oh!" "Host... kill him." "Mr Capricorn!" "I resign." "Astrid, don't!" "He's cut the brake line!" "Astrid!" "COMPUTER: 'Titanic falling." "Voyage terminated." "Voyage terminated.'" "Argh!" "'Deadlock broken.'" "Midshipman Frame!" "At last!" "But the Host..." "Controller dead, they revert to the next highest authority." "And that's me!" "There's no power, the ship's gonna fall." "'Titanic falling.'" "What's your first name?" "Alonso." "'Titanic falling.'" "You're kidding me." "Why?" "That's something else I've always wanted to say." "Allons-y, Alonso!" "TOOTING" "Hello, yes, erm..." "Could you get me Buckingham Palace?" "And as dawn rises over Great Britain, it seems that, this year, the City of London has escaped alien intervention..." "The Queen has remained in residence, in defiance of extraterrestrial attack..." "Listen to me!" "Security Code 7711, now get out of there!" "Open the door!" "CORGI WHINES" "Don't you dare, you aliens!" "Don't you dare!" "'Engine active." "Engine active.'" "SCREAMING AND SHOUTING" "PANTING" "YELLING" "Thank you, Doctor!" "Thank you!" "Happy Christmas." "BARKING" "GROANING" "LAUGHING" "Yes!" "Oh, yes!" "Woo-hoo!" "Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!" "Used the heat of re-entry to fire up the Secondary Storm Drive." "Unsinkable." "That's me." "We made it." "Not all of us." "Teleport!" "She was wearing a teleport bracelet!" "Rickston!" "Sonic!" "Mr Copper, the teleports, have they got an emergency setting?" "I don't know, they should have." "She fell, Mr Copper." "What's the emergency code?" "Let me..." "What the hell are you doing?" "We can bring her back!" "If a passenger has an accident on shore leave and they're still wearing their teleport, their molecules are suspended and held in stasis, so if we can just trigger the shift." "There!" "I'm falling." "Only halfway there." "Come on!" "I keep falling." "Feedback the molecule grid." "Boost it with the restoration matrix." "No, no, no!" "Need more phase containment." "Doctor..." "If I can just link up the surface suspension." "Doctor, she's gone." "I just need to override the safety." "I can do this, I can do it." "Doctor." "Let her go." "I can do anything!" "Stop me falling." "There's not enough left, the system was too badly damaged." "She's just atoms, Doctor." "An echo, with the ghost of consciousness." "She's stardust." "Astrid Peth." "Citizen of Sto." "The woman who looked at the stars and dreamt of travelling." "There's an old tradition." "Now you can travel forever." "You're not falling, Astrid." "You're flying." "The engines have stabilised, we're holding steady till we get help and I've sent the SOS." "A rescue ship should be here within twenty minutes." "And they're digging out the records on Max Capricorn." "Should be quite a story." "They'll want to talk to all of us, I suppose?" "I'd have thought so, yeah." "I think one or two inconvenient truths might come to light." "Still, it's my own fault." "And ten years in jail is better than dying." "Doctor..." "I never said... thank you." "The funny thing is I said Max Capricorn was falling apart." "Just before the crash," "I sold all my shares." "Transferred them to his rivals." "It's made me rich." "What do you think of that?" "BLEEPING" "Salvain?" "Those shares, I want them triple-bonded and locked..." "Of all the people to survive, he's not the one you would have chosen, is he?" "But if you could choose, Doctor, if you could decide who lives and who dies that would make you a monster." "Mr Copper..." "I think you deserve one of these." "So, Great Britain is part of Yooropee, and just across the British Channel, you've got Great France and Great Germany." "No, no, it's just France and Germany, only Britain is Great." "And they're all at war with the continent of Hamerica?" "No." "Well, not yet. (You could argue that one.) There she is!" "Survive anything!" "You know, between you and me, I don't even think this snow is real," "I think it's the ballast from the Titanic's salvage entering the atmosphere." "Yeah." "One of these days, it might snow for real." "So!" "I suppose you'll be off?" "The open sky." "And... what about me?" "I travel alone." "It's best that way." "What am I supposed to do?" "Give me that credit card." "Well, it's just petty cash." "Spending money." "It's all done by computer, I didn't really know the currency so I thought a million might cover it." "A million?" "Pounds?" "Enough for trinkets." "Mr Copper, a million pounds is worth 50 million credits." "How much?" "!" "50 million and 56." "I've got money." "Yes, you have!" "Oh, my word." "Oh, my Vot." "Oh, my goodness me!" "Yee-hah!" "It's all yours." "Planet Earth." "Now, that's a retirement plan." "Just you be careful, though!" "I will, I will, oh, I will!" "No interfering." "I don't want any trouble." "Just... just have a nice life." "But I can have a house!" "A proper house!" "With a garden!" "And a door!" "Oh, Doctor!" "I will make you proud!" "I can have a kitchen!" "With chairs!" "And windows!" "And plates!" "And..." "Um... where are you going?" "I've no idea!" "No, me neither." "Oh, and Doctor!" "I won't forget her." "Merry Christmas, Mr Copper." "Come with me." "The thrill is in the chase, never in the capture." "There's nowhere to run." "Show yourself." "Doctor!" "This... is the spark of life." "I just want a mate." "You're not mating with me, sunshine." "Being with you, I can't tell what's right and what's wrong any more." "It's better that way." "I do not understand, Miss." "Why do you say "Miss"?" "Do I look single?" "Oh, yes!" "I demand you tell me who you are." "INCOHERENT MOAN" "This has certainly been a most entertaining evening." "Subtitles Ripped by Mighty_Marvel"
