All language subtitles for Falling Skies S04E11 Space Oddity

Lexi?

- What the hell are you doing here?
- I came to talk to you. I need to explain.

- Everybody, get back to cover.
- Dad.

- The Espheni could be right behind her.
- Roger that. Positions, everybody.

- What the hell are you doing, Mason?
- Take it easy. I'll handle this.

You'll handle it?
Two weeks ago, we were 200 strong.

We're now down to about 20.
And she's the one responsible.

We back off until he's had a chance
to gauge if she's a threat.

If?

You gonna talk to her?

How about put her down
before she takes us all out?

- Make sure that he doesn't do anything stupid.
- Mission impossible. Be careful.

It's so good to see you both.

I came to apologize.
To tell you you were right.

Trusting the Espheni was
a terrible mistake.

- That's quite an understatement.
- Your eyes. They're different.

- They're the way they were before the cocoon.
- And I can see clearly now.

For the first time,
I know what I need to do.

The Espheni are monsters.

I wanna help you destroy them.

Well, it's not that simple.

You left us to join them.
Said they're family, you killed Lourdes...

There's no moment
that I'm not sick over what I did.

When I first came out of the cocoon,
I was so confused.

I thought I was helping Lourdes,
freeing her from pain when the attack came.

This isn't just about her. Look around you.
We were devastated by that attack.

- Those who survived hold you responsible.
- I am. So please...

Please let me make it up to you.

What do you think you're doing?

What Mason doesn't have the guts to do.

Put that rifle down, or
I'll take it from you.

Look, in case you hadn't noticed,
that is the enemy over there.

The Espheni plan to use me as their weapon.
Let me be your weapon and end this war.

How, Lexi?

- How can we let you back into our lives?
- We can't.

We can't.

Damn it, colonel.
Those soldiers in the 2nd Mass...

...we may not have started out as the best
of friends, but I fought alongside them.

I suffered with them
in that ghetto, and for what?

So that crazy, psycho alien bitch
could wipe them out? Uh-uh.

When you came out of that thing,
I promised to stop you...

...if you tried to hurt anybody,
and I didn't do it.

I'm not making that mistake again.

You're not thinking clearly.
This is complicated.

What's complicated
about the graves I dug, colonel?

- The women and children I put in the ground?
- I understand that.

Let's just take it easy.
Come for a walk with me.

Come on.

I'm sorry, cap.

Son of a...

Hey, Pope! Don't do it!

- Pope, don't do it!
- Aah!

Give me that damn gun!

Get down here.

They have no reason to be afraid.

No, but they got plenty of reasons
to hate you.

Case in point.

There's no place for you here.

Not anymore.

I'm sorry.

Dr. Kadar had no proof
she wasn't being controlled by the Espheni.

How do you know this isn't
some Espheni ploy?

- But why would she destroy the Beamers?
- I don't know.

Doesn't matter. No guarantee
somebody else won't try to kill her.

- You up for that?
- I know what you're feeling.

We're in uncharted territory, but let me see
if there's something left of our daughter.

- I will keep her away from the others.
- Keep her away from me.

- Keep an eye on Anne and Lexi for me?
- Got it. Watch yourself.

Figured you'd show up sooner or later.

- What you just did...
- Too far, huh?

Crossed the line?

Somebody needed to do something.

Too many people have died.

- I can't stand the thought of any more...
- What is that? An excuse?

- That doesn't give you the right.
- I think it does.

I can't stop seeing faces, Mason.

All the dead and buried.

I can't stop seeing their faces.

Well, there's a price you pay for caring
about somebody other than yourself.

Second Mass?

That's funny.

Sara used to tell me
that I actually cared about your people.

Your people, not just my people.

Yours as much as anybody else's.

I guess you are.

Were my people.

Know what your problem is, Mason?

You can't see the forest
through the trees, man.

Not when it comes to family.

We both know that your mouth
masks a lot of damage.

But what you did today, that was leaping over
the line. I won't let that happen again.

My family. My problem.

You stay the hell out of it.

- What's she doing here, Dad?
- She's had a change of heart.

- You believe her?
- I don't know.

You'll let her come back
after what she did?

- For the time being.
- What if she's messed up like Mira?

Then we'll deal with her the way
that we would deal with any threat. Look...

...the launch got scrapped
when she showed up. Back on now.

We leave in an hour.

There are too many
unknown variables on this mission.

Yeah, well, that's why I stayed up late...

...and re-read Space Flight for Dummies
last night.

Look, Cochise, it's a long shot.

We knew that going in.

But this is where the Espheni's
advanced technology works in our favor.

I mean, this ship is light years
ahead of anything that we've got...

...with the automated life support
and the homing signal.

All I really need to do is fly straight up.

Right?

So why do you seem so agitated?

I would be more comfortable
if I were accompanying you.

Well, so would l. But this ship
is allergic to Volm technology.

If the Espheni hadn't built their Beamers
to reject you...

...you'd be warming up the
copilot seat as we speak.

- There is another option.
- What?

I'm sending messages
to my father on our subspace communicator.

- Yeah.
- He has not answered.

But please, hold the launch long enough
for him to do so.

If the greater Volm are within range,
they could offer immeasurable support.

- We can't afford to hold the launch.
- We don't know...

...if the power core is guarded or not.

If my father receives these messages,
and if he chooses to respond...

...he could run interference. - If he
chooses to respond? Why wouldn't he?

Excuse me.
Is there something you're not telling me?

My father and I did not
part well, Tom Mason.

He insisted that I leave with him.
That Earth was a lost cause.

I... I refused.

I told him I would find the power core,
and I would destroy it on my own.

Are you telling me that you and your team
and Shaq...

...you guys are all we've got?

Sorry, but unless you can give us proof...

...that your dad's gonna help us,
I think we need to proceed as planned.

Worried about the variables?
Help me strap down the bombs.

Lexi, take a seat on the bed.

- I need a couple minutes alone with her.
- Pope took a cheap shot at her.

There's a lot of people with grudges. I won't
let anything happen to either one of you.

Okay.

Thank you so much, Mom.

- Stop playing games. I'm not in the mood.
- Games? I...

- I don't understand.
- Appealing to my maternal instinct...

...doesn't change the fact that I can't trust
you. You could be under Espheni control.

They can't control me.
That's why they're afraid of me.

When you killed Lourdes, your friend,
they weren't controlling you then?

I was confused. I thought I was sparing her
from a painful death.

Now I understand how twisted that
logic was, but in that moment, l...

I'm sorry.

No, I wasn't under their control.

It was my own decision.

Oh, Lexi.

I made a choice between my human family
and my Espheni family.

- Don't call those monsters family.
- I wanted peace so badly...

...that I believed their lies.
- And I believed yours.

I searched for you, Lexi.

When I lost you, I would've gone
to the ends of the earth to find you.

To find a way for us to be together.
A family.

But you, you betrayed all of that.

Now I know that's never gonna happen.

Not now. Not after what you did.

I know how badly I violated your trust.

So please, please let me make it up to you.

I'm your best chance if you wanna make it
to the power core and destroy it.

How do you know about that?

When I was with the Espheni,
I learned how to control my abilities.

- It's hard to explain.
- You better try.

It's like I can see energy.

Manipulate it, all of it.

Gravity, radio waves, electrical charges.

But if I'm close enough,
I can access the Beamer systems.

I can control them.

No, we can't afford to hold the launch.

We have no way of knowing
if the power core is guarded or not.

I can hear the conversation on the ship.
The Volm and Dad.

- They're preparing a bomb you've built.
- Stop that. Don't do that.

- Is that why you're here?
- No.

- Did the Espheni send you to spy on us?
- No. No, no. I promise.

Please. I'm telling the truth.

I rejected my Espheni father. I wanna help.

The bomb you built may be powerful enough to
make it to the power core and destroy it.

But you'd have to get it there first.

You may have managed
to get that Beamer airborne...

...but to fly it to the moon and back?

If you attempt this without my help,
you'll die trying.

- If she knows something about the Beamer...
- Dan, please. Please.

I knew I had to come back.
This is the reason.

I can fly the Beamer,
defend it if it's attacked.

I should be the one
going on this mission. Please.

- Don't sacrifice more than you already have.
- No.

No, Lexi.

You have made your choices,
and there's no coming back from them.

And I'm your mother,
and I will always love you...

...and I pray every day
that you find your place in this world.

But it isn't here.

Not with us. Not now.

Tom was right.

You need to leave.

- Anne, we need to talk now.
- Dan, this isn't the time.

Now is the time.

You and Tom
are making a huge mistake.

- About what?
- About your daughter.

Tom.

- Where's Lexi?
- Anthony's keeping an eye on her...

...so she can stay alive
for us to talk about the situation.

- Situation?
- Just hear him out.

Lexi has made an offer that I think
you'd be shortsighted not to consider.

What's the offer?

To go on the mission with you
instead of Ben.

- You're on board?
- We should consider it. Yeah.

She just took down those Beamers, Tom.

She just heard you and Cochise
talking inside of ours.

She's not Jeannie. Okay?

Your daughter held on to her humanity.
Ours didn't.

You're right.
She was willing. She admitted it.

But does that change the fact
that she is our best chance?

Maybe our only chance?

I understand that emotions are raw.
I understand that.

But this is war. We can't think with our
hearts. We got to think with our heads.

Remember when the Allies teamed up
with Stalin to defeat Hitler?

They knew that joining forces,
even with a monster, would be...

To win the war. We don't need her.
We've done our homework.

Unless the power core's heavily guarded,
or we encounter something else unexpected.

Having someone that can operate
the machinery...

...might make the difference.
- Yes.

We can't argue the fact that Lexi's abilities
give her an edge that none of us have.

You're not willing to entertain that idea?

Ben and I have been over
every step of this mission.

I've seen him in pressure situations.
I know how he'll respond.

- You're afraid of her?
- I'm afraid of myself around her.

I'm afraid I'm not gonna trust my
instincts, make the right call.

- I don't know her.
- But none of it matters.

This is our Hail Mary.

Throw all that out.

It's simple.

- It's just a choice, Tom.
- Listen, maybe you're right.

Maybe I'm letting my emotions
cloud my judgment.

I should make this decision
on a purely tactical, logical basis.

I don't know.

Yeah. When you weigh it all out,
she's the best person for it.

All right. Lexi goes, Ben stays.

Hope to God we're right.

Thank you for giving me this opportunity.

It's more out of necessity than choice.

Hey, what's that?

It's bad luck not to christen a ship
on its maiden voyage.

I think we may be a little past luck,
but thank you.

Hey, I don't care how powerful
they say you are...

...if you hurt my dad,
I'll find a way to make you pay.

- This isn't fair. We had a lottery.
- I know.

If it was fair, I'd be teaching
American history now.

This is the way it has to be.

- Ben, I...
- There's nothing to say, Lexi.

I can think of a few choice words.

Yeah. I wanna thank you for being
the first and last I ever let tell me...

...who I'm supposed to be.

You know, it's a real shame that Lourdes
was the only one among us...

...who might've been able to find a
place in her heart to forgive you.

I'll hold you to your word.

I want you both to come back in one piece.

I'll try my best.

No trying, kid. Get it done.

Come here for a second.

I, uh, got this serum from the Volm.
They carry it on them...

...in case they get captured by the
Espheni. It's a fast-acting poison.

Now, if that's strong enough to take
down a Volm before it can regenerate...

...it might be able to kill a hybrid.

Just think of it as an insurance policy.

Let's hope I won't need it.

Godspeed.

I can't breathe.

We should clear the atmosphere
in a few moments.

I've adjusted the linear-acceleration burn.

We should mimic the earth's gravity.

If we're out of the atmosphere, we should
be able to detect the homing beacon.

I've found the signal
and engaged autopilot.

Nothing more to do now but wait.

You still don't trust me, do you?

Why don't you ask me that question
when we're on the way home?

How long until we get there?

One moment.

This map will allow us
to view the ship's course...

...in relation to the
nearest celestial bodies.

- Is something wrong?
- No.

That thing you do with your hair,
your mother does that sometimes.

Um, let's go over the checklist again.

The homing beacon is engaged.
When we reach our destination...

...I'll switch it off and let the
core's landing protocol draw us in.

And then we drop the bomb,
blow up the power core...

...and you fly this ship home manually.
- Yeah.

It's important that we conserve power.
The return trip's on a battery charge?

Half charge on the battery
should be enough to get us home.

- Are we forgetting anything?
- It's nothing.

I mean, nothing to do
with the ship, anyway.

It's just this is the longest conversation
we've ever had.

It's not really the time or the place
to get to know each other.

We're on a mission.

- I think we should stick to it.
- Right.

It's getting colder in here.

- Why is that?
- Let me check life support.

The outer hull.
There appears to be a hairline fracture.

- We did some minor repairs.
- Takeoff may have worsened the tear.

Life support is making up for the leak
but causing us to drain energy...

...at a faster rate than we should.
- Can we fix it?

From outside of the ship with
the right tools. But here, now?

- No. No, I mean, we could return home...
- No.

- ...make repairs and try again.
- No, come on.

Come on.
There's got to be another way around this.

If we can't get outside
and repair the damage...

...there has to be another way
to take the strain off of the life support.

Unless we lower it to a minimum,
this will be a one-way trip to the moon.

And even if we turn the ship around...

...there's no guarantee that we could
repair the breach in the hull.

- There's got to be another way.
- There is one other option.

A way to insulate us
from the cold organically.

Well, good. That sounds good.

- Wait. Like the thing in Chinatown?
- A cocoon, yes.

- No, no.
- This will be different than before.

Cocoons are used
by the Espheni for stasis...

...protection against the elements
during long journeys.

You mean like a cocoon
to protect us from the cold?

And lack of oxygen.

I'll hear the automated landing
protocol from inside of the cocoon...

...as we approach our destination.

At that point, I'll restart life support
and let landing protocol take over.

It's our only chance at survival.

The cold, it doesn't bother you?

I can regulate my body temperature,
but only to a point.

I'll have to cocoon myself too, and soon.

- What is that?
- Protein.

Amino acids.

Honestly, it would take
too long to explain.

Hold still.

No, wait. Wait.

- How am I gonna breathe?
- The substance I'm secreting is oxygen-rich.

It'll enter your lungs and nourish you,
but you have to let it in.

It'll be like no time at all has passed.

When we wake up, we'll simply be there.

- Okay.
- Now...

...just breathe deeply.

That's what you said
to Lourdes right before.

Did I?

How strange.

Wait.

Sweet dreams, Father.

Tom. Can you hear me? Tom.

We're gonna get you out of there.

Hey, Dad. Dad.

Stay with us. You okay?

Hang in there. Stay with us.

You all right? Here.

Take it easy.

Oh, God. Are you okay?

- Where am I? What happened?
- You made it back.

- You're back.
- What do you mean "back"?

What...? What happened to your arm?

I'm fine. So is Lexi.

Where's Lexi? What happened?

She wanted to be here when you woke up.
She's been through so much.

Are you repairing the breach?
How much time did we lose?

- It's over. Lexi did it.
- Did what? I don't understand.

Hey, hey, hey. The mission.

- All right? It's over.
- Yeah.

- All right?
- It's over.

Come here. We'll show you.

Just take it easy.

A day after you left,
there was a massive explosion on the moon.

- Power core?
- That crater is where it used to be.

- Lexi detonated the bomb.
- In the nick of time.

That scorched Overlord sent in
a whole group of troops.

Skitters trying to soften us up.
About out of ammo. Had nowhere to run to.

A skitter took me down.
Hal fought it off. Stopped the bleeding.

Right place, right time. If Lexi hadn't blown
up the power core, none of us would be here.

Once he saw that the power supply had been
cut, that Espheni turned tail and ran.

- Lexi never got me out of the cocoon?
- No.

Did it on her own.
She docked the Beamer.

She set the bomb, flew you back before the
battery charge ran down. She did it, Tom.

Where's Lexi now?
I wanna talk to her.

Come on. Let's go.

What happened to her?

I'll let her tell you.

Lexi, wake up.

I wanted to be there when you woke up.

Last thing I remember,
you were putting me in a cocoon.

The life-support strain on the batteries
was worse than I thought.

I couldn't risk waking you,
or we'd never have made it back.

When the bomb exploded,
the power core melted...

...and well, we were caught
in the radiation blast wave.

You look so different now. Your hair.

Yeah. It's like radiation therapy
attacking cancer cells.

Her Espheni DNA seems to have
been flushed out of her system.

I can't hear them in my mind anymore.

For the first time since
I was a little girl, I...

Heh, I feel normal.

Dad.

Hello.

- Ben.
- You brought him back in one piece.

It's not enough.

It won't ever be enough.

I'll spend the rest of my life
making up for what I did to Lourdes...

...deserting the 2nd Mass.
- No, that doesn't matter.

You're one of us. You're family.

Where's everybody else?
Where's Weaver and Maggie?

He's got everybody mobilized to take
advantage of the Espheni's loss of power.

Don't worry. He's gonna wanna talk to you.

In a minute.

In a minute.

Got a shortwave running.

Been hearing from resistance groups
up and down the East Coast.

Without power from the core,
all the ghetto walls have fallen.

The Espheni plans for us
have come to a halt.

- What about that Overlord?
- Pulled back to his stronghold.

For the first time, a fair fight.

How do we know that he's not pulling back,
regrouping...

...about to launch a major counter offensive?
- How do we know that the tide hasn't turned...

...and that this just
may be a winnable war?

I'm just saying, we should be cautious.
Let's scope it out...

...and if everything is as it seems...
- We press our advantage.

You're quiet.

I can't believe I'm actually looking
at the light at the end of the tunnel.

I've dreamt about this day
a thousand times over.

After everything we've been through...

...we deserve a little joy in our life.

Lexi, can I talk to you alone?

Yeah. I just think we
need to clear the air.

I know you're angry at me, Maggie,
and you have every right to be.

Maybe I do, but at least I'm alive
and angry and not a pissed-off corpse.

And I have you to thank for that, so...

...I guess that's what I'm saying.

Thanks for that.

Where's Pope?
It's not like him to miss a party.

He left right after the launch of the
Beamer. No one has seen him since.

- He left?
- Mm-hm.

For real?

- What's going on over there?
- We just got word.

Dingaan and Hal's attack on the scorched
Overlord's stronghold was a success.

A few fighters wounded, but no casualties.

What do you mean, attack?
I never authorized an attack.

This was planned just this afternoon.

- Weaver must have given the go-ahead.
- Doesn't sound like him. Why?

- You can ask him yourself.
- Time to bring out the good stuff.

What is this attack?
We never pulled the trigger on that.

Hal made the call. He knew that if you knew
it was on, you'd wanna go. He wasn't wrong.

Ha! Wipe that look off your face, Mason.

You got so used to losing, you don't
know what it's like to win anymore.

Listen.

I need your undivided attention.

- Yeah?
- And just... Don't say a word.

Just come with me.

Hey, you think that was weird
the way that Weaver just blew me off?

Well, he was excited. We all are.

- Is it so wrong to want to celebrate?
- No. It's not.

That stronghold that Hal attacked today,
that was 30 miles away, right?

Mm-hm.

So...

...how did they get there so quickly?

Um, the militia troops that Dingaan
connected with had transport.

Oh. That's convenient.

It's perfect.

It's too perfect. It's too perfect.

- It's too perfect. It's too
perfect. It's perf... - What?

Doesn't add up.

The war is coming to an end.

For the first time in I don't know how
long, there is no mission to be planned.

No lives that need to be saved,
no command decisions to be made.

Lexi did it.

Her dream of peace is finally coming true.

- She did it, Tom.
- Yeah.

And then I heard your voice...

...when you pulled me out.
- Mm-hm.

If you pulled me out.

What is that supposed to mean?

This doesn't feel real.

What? Okay. I'm not real?

I don't feel like I'm...

I know the feeling. I feel like I'm here.
I don't... I don't feel like I'm here.

- I know I'm here, but I don't feel like it.
- All right. Sit down. Sit down.

Feelings of disassociation this strong
could be a sign of severe PTSD.

- No, no, no.
- Okay. Hey.

- I wanna talk to Lexi.
- I'll bring her. Just... Tom, just relax.

- Okay, sit down, okay?
- Okay.

- I will bring her.
- Ahem.

I'll go see if I can find Kadar.

- Kadar?
- Yeah.

He's more knowledgeable
about stress disorders.

Kadar is dead, Anne. You know that.

Lexi doesn't know that.

This is all Lexi. Why is she doing this?
What does she want from me?

- I'm gonna go get help.
- What does she want from me? Anne? Anne.

Lexi!

Lexi!

Lexi.

Lexi, wait.

Dan. Dan, wait.

- Where is she?
- She won't talk to you.

You're not real.

None of this is real.

This is all part of a dream.

Lexi, why are you doing this?

Bigger question is, why are you?

It's not like you to
give up on family, Tom.

I wanna talk to Lexi, Dan.

She don't wanna talk to you.

- She's too scared.
- What's she afraid of?

What'll happen when you wake up.

- What, that the mission will fail?
- No.

- That it won't.
- Why would she be afraid to succeed?

- I don't get that.
- You don't get it because you're seeing red.

If anybody understands
what you're going through, Tom, it's me.

To have your daughter twisted
by the Espheni.

But I didn't give up on mine.

I never gave up on her.

And you can't give up on yours.

You gotta make things right with her.

Accept her for who she is.

- I won't accept this.
- Wait, wait, wait.

You gotta get us out of here, Lexi. Now.

Do you ever get tired of
barking orders? - Come on.

What is this? What's with all the games?

You really need to ask that question, Dad?

Lexi wants what your children want
when we've made a mistake.

What's that? An escape from reality
or from responsibility?

You're overthinking it.

How is it that the Espheni
know Lexi better than her own father?

- That's hardly fair, Ben.
- Whoa, whoa.

Take it easy on him, Ben.

- Cut him a little slack.
- Why? He didn't cut Lexi any.

They messed with her like they messed
with us. My spikes, your eye bugs.

- Matt at the school.
- You saved me, Dad. You saved all of us.

- But you couldn't save Lexi.
- I was trapped in a prison camp.

She's your own flesh and blood.
She's just like us.

- Is she not as important to you?
- She is.

I took responsibility for what you did.
Now you're trying to blame me for it?

- You weren't there for her, Dad.
- Where were you when she needed you?

- I tried my best to protect her.
- Where were you?

You can't keep us here, Lexi.

People are counting on us.

Hello, Torn.

I'm sorry I never got a chance
to say a proper goodbye.

Stop hiding behind all these faces, Lexi.

Just come out and show yourself.

She can't.

She's terrified, like I was when
she took away my last breath.

Lourdes, you know Lexi better than anyone.

What does she have to be afraid of?

She doesn't think
you'll ever forgive her for killing me.

She lost you.

She lost Anne.

You'll never forgive her...

...never love her,
no matter what she does.

She's lost her whole family.

She's all alone.

There's no coming back.

I understand, Lexi.

I understand what you want.

This isn't about the mission.

This is about me.

And Anne and your family.

And these faces...

...Weaver and your brothers
and now Lourdes...

...you're hiding behind them
because you're terrified that...

...no matter what you do, we'll never
forgive you for what you've done.

Lexi will never be forgiven
because my blood is on her hands.

How can I ask you to forgive me...

...when I can't even forgive myself?

I understand that this isn't a trick.

That this is just a scared little girl who's
afraid to wake up and face the cold light of day.

But whatever fears you have,
we need to leave this place right now.

I don't know how to reverse this.
I didn't do it on purpose.

I put myself into stasis
with you in the cocoon.

With me?

You're in the cocoon with me?

So we're dreaming together?

Oh, I should've seen that
from the beginning.

Successful mission, winning the war...

...those are things that I've desperately
wanted and dreamt about.

What does it mean?

All these people have made mistakes.

They all have regret.

And yet they can sit together.
They can break bread together.

So many things
I wish I could go back and undo.

- So many of them have to do with you.
- I'm sorry that I let you down.

No, my biggest regret
isn't that I trusted you.

It's that I couldn't forgive you.

This is what we share.

These feelings of regret. Our capacity
for guilt, or love, or compassion.

These are all human traits.

And our dream is proof
that you are who you say you are.

You're one of us. You're not one of them.

It's also proof that I need to try
to find a way to forgive you.

But first we need to wake up.
Are you ready to do that?

- Yes.
- Good. Me too.

Maybe if we try together.

I'm searching for the automated
landing protocol.

What's the life-support situation?

Batteries over half charge.

So the cocoon was the right call.

There. It's engaged.
We're making our approach.

I can show you.

Oh, my God.

We made it.

I'm the 25th human to visit the moon.

Which makes me the 26th.

You know that dream, our dream?
We could make that real.

- That could just be the first.
- First of what?

Conversations between father and daughter.

It's time I got to know mine.

We're gonna make it, Dad.

I can feel it.
