Mary Mary

if anyone can hear me I need help

I'm stuck in some sort of escape pod in space

the air's wrong in here

I can't breathe very well and I don't know where I am

I can't remember

oh no no

no no

no no no

hello Tyco hello

hello can you hear me

I can hear you I can hear you

help me please

you have to help me I'm going to help you

it's okay try to calm down

talk to me I am

oh thank God

I I'm

I'm injured bleeding

are you gonna save me calm down

um this is Swan in space control

we picked up your distress call and have your location

now your pilot should have extrapolated

for a smooth reentry back to earth

no and no no

there's no pilot I think

I think the air is wrong in here

I can't breathe very well

I don't know what happened

I'm injured your autopilot

um did your autopilot fire correctly

I don't know try to relax

I'm gonna get you out of this

my name is Sarah I don't know what happened yet

just that

there was some sort of accident on the silver station

and it triggered a 3C so we've lost contact

but obviously as soon as you contacted us

I alerted the emergency team

okay okay wait

no wait wait

are you the only one there

it's uh

night time here sir

but uh

as I said the emergency team has been called

and there is an on call engineer

getting ready to contact right now

he'll go through the checklist with you

as soon as possible wait

the what the checklist

um we can isolate the problem you're having

with your breathing system

have you checked

the oxygen valves are working correctly

I'm not an astronaut

um can you tell me your name sir

I'm I'm not sure I

I I think I hit my head I

I I it

it says Tyco on my uniform

oh yeah

we know that we picked up your series number

it's from a Tyco pod rings a bell

it's one of the asteroid mining companies out there

um sir

do you know your name no I

I can't remember it I can't remember much is

is that normal

it could be a symptom related to your air mix

I've seen it before

the Tyco project manager and engineer is Ray Getty

does that name sound familiar

ah here he is

he's with the station we lost contact

with it he says he's not an astrotech

and that he doesn't remember his name

that he's hit his head oh boy

wait what what hi

this is Ray guessy your name is Marcus

you were you were visiting the silver station

okay what what do you mean

oh what right

let's concentrate in saving your life shall we

wait is anyone gonna tell me what's happening

what's going on Marcus

is you in little more than a box in space

and you have no idea what to do

so you are going to listen okay

is this a test sir is this a test Marcus

it's very simple you're going to listen to what I say

so you have a chance in hell to make it back to earth

alive do you understand

yeah it's not a test yeah right okay

you are alive now which means you have some power

and the temperature regulator in oxygen supply working

okay oh

but there is a problem with the air he was saying right

thank you I'll take you Premier Space Control

thank you and Marcus can speak for himself

can't you Marcus yeah yeah

there's something wrong with the air

you have to be more specific Marcus

I can't breathe very well okay

I can hear an intermittent rustling

do you know where that comes from

it seems to come from behind the seat right okay

it's it's probably the air tank

it's not supposed to make that noise

but you are breathing okay

we can fix that right

but that is not the priority right now

if you say so Marcus

are you physically injured

yeah there's um

nasty wound on my side I used

I used the medic kit earlier

it didn't seem to be bleeding anymore

okay well

that's good we'll get a doctor on the radio ASAP

but the priority right now is to put you on the course

Marcus Marcus

what's that uh

there's stuff flying around

just hit my head

Marcus you're performing delicate operations

you don't need any of those distractions

just put it all away

it is something called the data recorder

should I do something with that

you have this the station black box there

uh yeah

is that bad Marcus

don't touch it right

it's not for you you could damage the data in it

just put it away

and the earth team can access the data

to know what happened sounds great

now as I was saying

I assume the autopilot hasn't triggered

how can I tell are you spinning

well I can't look outside to check

I closed the door by mistake earlier

how do I right

that's for the best just stay away from the airlock

now on the control panel in front of you

find a switch labeled Main Display and flick it

okay done

right the top corner shows one set of three figures

for the current rotation are they changing a lot

yeah he it's

it's bad right

well

it means you're not headed home and it's no surprise

we've seen it happen before

so the team has calculated the necessary coordinates

for the pod to arrive to earth

we are directing you to the South Pacific Ocean

it's where the autopilot would have sent you

not that you need to know

I'm transferring them to Space Control

so you can work together

to enter them by the keyboard on the control panel

and once you have

find another switch to turn the autopilot on okay

are you not gonna stick around

no I

I have to go now but I will be back

Space Controller is the necessary information for now

and I will check that you're on course in a minute okay

okay yeah

alright thanks

he's gone is he

he used to work on his people skills

ha ha I won't argue that

much rather talk to you really

what do I do right

um let me see uh

I have the coordinates here

are you ready two long numbers ready

yeah okay

the first one is minus 43.277205

and the other one positive 179.384766

couldn't just wait with the antenna

sorry sir

I can't find the autopilot switch

where is it I'm not sure uh

give me a second not sure hmm no

it's on a different page what do you mean

you mean the manual

yeah but it got transferred from engineering

together with the coordinates

sorry sir

we don't know all the different company's models

it's okay I found it well great

well done well

it says here that there is always a delay in pod

response so

it takes a minute or two for them to stop

their current trajectory

and then the frosters to get into the right position

you'll be home in no time sir

you actually have to call me sir

well I should just call you Mister Tyco

sorry well

since your father actually runs Taco Corp wait

what kind of

you want to just tell me this now

I keep forgetting you don't remember things

do you what do you mean kind of

well I don't want to pour lemon juice on it

but they say it's not doing well

lots of technical issues is it that bad of me

who says that just Tyco staff I've talked to

that's probably not true Mr Tyco

can you please just call me Marcus

um okay

plus I suppose that's your father

isn't it Mr Tyco

I mean um sorry

one moment um

I have another call

okay

it was just Mr Getty

checking that the coordinates were working

he needs to go but he'll be back shortly

and then he'll do a full check of the pod with you

he started moving by himself

well there we go

you're on your way to Earth Yay

so why do I have to go Dick

did he um

the boss's son stuck in space not

important enough or he just

he doesn't like me

I am pretty sure there's something else going on

I'm just not sure what how do you know

well I don't know

but the resident staff from Tyco

well they're all busier than usual today

and they're all acting a bit shifty

if you know what I mean

you're good at reading people right

I can tell my father's like that too

I guess probably why I got assigned to this stupid post

sorry I shouldn't complain to the client

say whatever you want you're saving my life hardly

oh I forgot

there's a doctor on the way to help with your wound

maybe he can help with your memories too

but try to relax we're gonna get you home

yeah it's a music

do you like it

sure I guess

sorry about Mr Getty by the way

to be honest I hear you can be difficult sometimes

maybe that's just the way he likes to talk to you

have we met no

not really well

not that you'd remember

even if you hadn't hit your head

you're a bit of a rich playboy

not so interested in space program interns

I imagine sound like a right prick

it's just the rumor mill

bitching about the boss passes the time

or the boss's son or whatever

so I'm rich stinking

it's good to know

I'll buy you dinner if you get me out of this

ha ha you say that now

you'll probably forget you can remind me

that's what little people are for

isn't it oh

watch it casonova

oh excuse me

oh it's been a long shift

half an hour and I'll be dossing on the trade

well you won't be you're not staying

I I like I like the sound of your voice

you're not gonna stay a little longer

I'll be no good to you unconscious

just it's nice to have someone to talk to

you know I guess I could stay for a bit

I don't know

hey

so you don't remember anything about the station then

no not really bits

but nothing from up there so far

I have the black box here anyway

race has to be able to tell what happened from that

right

well you seem to know a lot about Tyco by the way

oh it's a client

they make you read all these client documents

plus last night was on the news

they always make a fuss about a civilian

going into space like it's something new

you got there in a company shuttle like 24 hours ago

some kind of PA event I think

why wait why

why was I going my my father

he hasn't let me retire has he

um I don't know I think Mr Tyco is sick

of course I went

we're on his behalf yeah

that's it

it was all in the press release about the event

how his son will be the one

up there blah blah blah I didn't actually read it

but some people here didn't even know

the son was in the picture

no offense and that's how I know about it

they were surprised about you going up there instead

and they that that's it Sarah

I need you to call my father can can you do that for me

yeah that's a great idea oh

he'll be glad to hear that you're okay yeah

maybe um let me access the client's listings uh

I probably won't have a direct number

but I'll see if I can get transferred okay

yeah but you need to know that I'm alright

and I'm bringing something for him okay

um oh

okay I'm gonna get off the coms for a second

try and get a direct number from the company

keep yours open I'll reconnect in a minute okay

but just don't be long okay I won't right

you're gonna be proud of me this time dad

sorry no luck

maybe Ray has it no um

I have the number

but I got the machine so I imagine he's not in right

he's probably still not feeling well

I don't know he tends to get better overnight well

it is still night this side of the world yeah

you're probably right oh

hear this there is another pod apparently

really maybe another survivor

one of Mr Getty's team just told me see

I knew something was going on any contact yet they're

trying he said no look

so far maybe the comms are down

it's on route to earth though

must have launched before yours because it's closer

right

oh and the autopilot did fire on that one

so I may have gotten a more lucky than you yeah

more lucky them

Marcus Mr Getty is asking to be patched in great

here we go

right Marcus

I'm going to talk you through the air tank first

Marcus can you hear me

yeah yeah

it'll make the air better right

well it should yes

if we do it right

there's a panel above you to your left

labeled with a yellow sticker

when I tell you I want you to open it

do you think you can do that

uh I think so good

there's a magnetic catches at both sides

you should be able to pull it open with a good pull

am I gonna run out of air

no probably not

I mean provided the tank inside is not damaged

you have plenty

you just need to make sure it doesn't explode oh

please tell me how to do that right

well

there's some fuel lining in there too with this model

it's been known to happen

fuel lining through the air

one thing no

I didn't design it

now there's a chance the tank is already loose

so it might get free and hit something with force

enough to break it open and spark

at the same time you

are going to have to open the side closest to you only

and then wiggle your hand inside

then grab that tank firmly

and force it back into its socket

do you think you understand me Marcus

yeah well okay

explain it back to me

you want me to slide my hand in and reach for the tank

so that the panel stops it bouncing around too much

and I can grab it close enough

we we don't want to make the situation worse

by touching what we shouldn't

so you're going to tell me what you're going to do

before you do it okay okay

okay

moving into position to touch the panel

clear for procedure

prepare to open the panel with one hand

slide the fingers the other hand underneath the panel

and reach for the tank

clear for procedure

just imagining getting anything open

and seeing a rattling cannon stars

no chance that could happen right

well if you can't get it open

it is stars the pressure difference

you know

very reassuring

hey panel's open

no start ah

well done Marcus thank you

the tank seems to be hanging from the connection

you're going to have to reinforce it and secure it

so the same thing doesn't happen again

alright Marcus

you should be getting the full air supply now

oh thank God

one more thing before you start to over

congratulate yourself for being so smart

you don't have to speak to me like that

you know I fix the damn air thing

didn't I I'm just here to help you make it out alive

we're not friends Marcus

yeah Ray

I know that trust me

believe me I know it

I know it's all coming back to you

it's probably helping already

isn't it

I still can't remember what happened up there though

don't worry Marcus

give it some time space control ah

sorry Mr Gary

let's move on to the rest of the checklist

shall we wait

why I'm I'm

I'm breathing and I'm on route to earth right

you are we still need to know

the pod is in good enough condition

Sarah told me about the other pod

did she just um

let's make sure your pod can get back safely

Marcus you be concerned with making it back

that's the best way that you can help

I know right

but it is help no

you need to bring the black box back to us

yeah and I'd like to know if there's any more survivors

and if they're okay those are my father's people

my people there's no contact yet

so unless you can remember something of help

from what happened and we're both in the dark

no no

no I can't

no but you have the black box now

no Marcus

you have it and until you bring it back to us unscaved

we can't access it and you may not remember

but we actually haven't had the chance

to try a hand at reading any others

since we can't get the damn things to make it through

reentry well

now I am bringing it

don't remind me if you do remember something

your father is obviously very keen on finding out

any of the survivors

we're going to need a positive media spin

you spoke to him yes

I did as soon as this Windham picks up your call

what else did he say

he asked about the scale of the damage

and I said we don't know yet

we don't know

if his stubborn kid is in danger of dying in space

for not listening to instructions

should I tell him that Marcus

what do I do

right it's actually very

very simple first off

there's an indicator labeled battery state

that's battery state what color is it

yellow that's not too bad

it could be worse now Marcus

without power nothing works

nothing okay

that pod becomes just a box in space

you understand this is very

very important the cold alone will kill you in minutes

so let me know if it goes red okay

Marcus is that understood

yeah okay

right now I want you to check the exterior cameras

now you need only to use the control panel again

now only touch the camera controls okay

I see them right

there were six cameras there

I want you to cycle through them in ascending order

and tell me exactly what you see

okay ah

stars not working not working

stars not working

I can see F oh my God

he he he says the front so that's

so that's the rear camera

plus two of the side ones aren't working

is that right I guess so yeah okay

well it's not a big deal alright

we're done with the checklist

you can turn all those cameras off for now

get back to course display

so you can see the autopilot is working

using that display will save you some power too

what about the rest of the pilot

isn't that on the checklist

you you don't want to touch anything on that

if you don't know what you're doing

I already did

I should know how to use it just in case right

no we're all better off if you don't touch anything

no you're not gonna die in the next 10 minutes

I need to go and look into something

I'll contact you back

Sarah yeah

what a dick

no he's right

I'm just useless up here

if I can at least give some detail

on the other part of it

you shouldn't really worry about that

I hear they do this memory scan sometimes

oh shit in these situations

I forgot about that figures oh sorry

I really have no filter I should shut up

I mean you know you're forgetting things aren't you

no no

you're right you're right

I know that Tyco's done them in the past for astroteks

going through traumatic situations

apparently they can be quite painful

oh well

maybe you'll remember naturally

you think someone could be in the other pod

well could be a technical failure right

well yeah

it could be

do you want to know who else was on the station

maybe it'll jog your memory

talking about your dad did

could they be in the other part

well it's only designed for one

there were 3 astroteks and a facilitator up there

it still could be one of them though

I mean

why aren't we talking about me going to rescue them

you know they may need my help

whoa you can't do anything from where you are

you don't have a spacesuit

even you can't help them I love that you try

it's just not possible oh

it's good to know that someone cares about me

maybe you could stay pass your shift

I mean I mean

I'll make sure that Tyco pays you overtime

plus the dinner haha

stop being silly the day staff are coming in now

they can handle day traffic

I don't mind staying with you until you feel safe

or I pass out

thank you Sarah

you're welcome Marcus

um you wanna uh

you wanna tell me about the crew

yes um

Noah Chris Cole

pilot

looks like he's been off world most of his adult life

expert Eva Adrian Shore Navigation and planning

she also paints Terence Parara

station facilitator only been with the company

six months did you know them

no I've probably talked to them at some point

I talked to a lot of people

uh last one

Brian Salis station captain

been with Tyco for 12 years

married with two young girls Brian

yeah Brian Salus

ring any bells maybe of course

I remember Brian

my father loves him does he

best man we have he always says

Marcus

can you hear me

Marcus I can hear a hum

Marcus what's happening

Marcus

well your position is changing too quick are you okay

oh god I'll get Mr Gay

Marcus what do you think you're doing

remember try and tell me if I can get to it what

no Marcus

you can't Marcus

there's no point to this

you are using up battery and risking your life

unnecessarily I'm just worried about the black box

he is flying it though

I thought you said he didn't know how

I took the architect training

did you I did

did he he failed the training

Marcus listen to me

you're going too fast

part 2 is in a very similar trajectory

if you don't run out of battery before

you may crash into it or

Marcus ah

Marcus are you okay

you've stopped

emergency pods

lock themselves off when you fly too fast

on manual that's why you stopped

doesn't sound like a very intelligent idea

most personal

emergency pods only ever fly in auto pilot

if you do want to go into manual

then you use the manual override

did did you not remember that

I didn't know that well

now you do ah

you do well

in feeling lucky that you're inside that pot

instead of outside and not asking too much from it oh

oh it really hurts now

you may have opened your wounds

hang in there Marcus

the doctor can't be much longer now

space control the most important thing now

is for Marcus to get back to the return mode

so that no batteries being wasted

in going in a random direction

auto lock resets the coordinates

so repeat them to him so we can reenter them

okay Marcus

you hang on I need to give you the figures again

okay so that we can get you here as soon as possible

I'm on it I've got the first one

uh you sure

yeah second one

positive 43 2 7

7 and what else

2:05 okay

all that now Marcus

if you're remembering

can you tell us anything that may help us with part two

yeah I remember most of it

I'll tell you when I'm on my way to Brian

how do I unlock this thing Marcus

what is your plan here really

I want to attach the two pods

using the docking mechanism to get in

Brian

himself told me that was possible before the accident

listen to me is that possible

it is not possible

that has never been done in the field

it would be unlikely to succeed

even if we had a pod in perfect condition

and the qualified

a more qualified person at the controls

I cannot authorize it I don't need you to

you can't stop me

you can't do anything from where you are

you're being childish now

am I Brian needs me to try

best case scenario he's hurt and unable to help himself

okay and so are you

and you hardly remember

some training you couldn't even complete

Marcus please listen to Mr Getty

okay

okay Marcus

you're right

what

there's very little we can do from here

except seeing your rough position

our instruments here are not that precise

exactly

there is a possibility that something could be blocking

the transmission some debris

perhaps stuck in the outside structure

after a difficult launch or something

we could do with you taking a closer look okay

I'll help you do a flyby safely

that way

you can get a visual read and check if that's the case

and we can assess the situation from there

if we're lucky

we might be able to carefully nudge the blockage off

I've not changed my mind

if you want me to check for debrie

then I will but if that's not the case

then I will dock

Brian is the last of the crew and I will get to him

and if he's still alive I will rescue him

I understand the

the manual override button unlocks the pod

it's under

a protective cover lift the cover and press the button

there was a cooling period of a few minutes

after lockoff but it should have passed by

and now you obviously remember how to drive

let's make it smooth

you can still use the coordinates

for initial orientation

yeah it's a

it's repositioning now as we're flying

whatever you do stay under the 15 Mark

it'll be very hard to fly straight

with a speed over that

the trick is to never go hard on those sticks

use soft adjustments

we'll monitor you and your progress from here

but you need to check the front camera for a visual

as you get closer

make sure you don't crash against Brian's pod

you remember how to watch in the cameras yeah

I do right good

that's good

right Marcus I'm gonna need you to stay sharp yeah

I can do that

okay Marcus right

you're on your way now we kept her under the bargain

so um

the air was dense hard to breathe on the station there

Brian and myself we were lucky

we were on the other side of the station by the pods

he was telling me about how they were planning to

and the prep work they were doing

to get the minimal load to worth

the rest of the crew they they died in the explosion

they were at the control module

yeah

look the station it started falling apart over us there

Brian said we only had a few minutes

he tried to get in one of the pods

but why not the shuttle that brought you up there

could you not have gotten to the hanger

through the auxiliary tunnels I

I I don't know

no

it's been destroyed by the explosion to

anyway

Brian tried to get in one of the pods

and as he did we were hit by flying debris

one piece sliced me on my waist

and he took a pretty big hit to the head

I mean he did get into the pod in the end

but he was bleeding very heavily

what about you

I went back for the black box and got into the next pod

when

when

I mean after we got here

you know I

I knew there wasn't enough time

and I thought Brian was dead

there was blood everywhere

when I got back with the black box

his pod was gone

and I had just enough time to get into my night

I could have examined him

I could have helped him he may still be alive our

Brian is a tough cookie

you shouldn't have risked your life

to get to the black box

but it is the first time

Tyco may have an undamaged one after an accident so

so this could be quite useful data

yeah to

to figure out the oxygen issue right

I heard my father talk about it

this is why I'm bringing it for him so

he did he can figure that out

hopefully yes

you're bloody reckless Marcus

oh damn out stupid but

but you've done well the company owes you

thanks

I'm going to go now

I will get the team verifying your speed and position

and I'll check back when you're closer okay

Sarah isn't it

uh yes sir

you call me if any complications should arise

before that of course Mr Getty

you know it wasn't your fault what

well if you thought Brian was dead

how are you to know it sounds horrific

all that blood it doesn't matter now

I'm glad

you can see some redeeming features in a millionaire

sports on though

I think you're sweet

um

so no more music eh

yeah um

sorry just

just give me a sec

okay

sorry I'm back

just got the doctor's call

he's ready I'll patch him right up okay

his name is Professor Chatterjee okay

hello Marcus

how are you feeling I've had better days obviously

I've hit my head I'm

I can't remember some details

so let's hope your memory returns shortly

but even if it doesn't

we have many methods to help you when you get back home

yeah I

I know that that's probably unnecessary though

are you also experiencing disorientation

vision problems yeah

um I can't see very far

so I see well

all these things should improve with time

it's likely to be oxygen toxicity

probably from the station

according to what you told Mister

Getty yep

no the air seems okay now though

so it would explain why

your symptoms aren't getting worse

I understand you have an open cut on your side too

I've been reading the transcript on my way here

is it deeper Marcus

I didn't see how deep it was

before putting the glue in there

I mean there was a lot of blood

okay did you apply enough to cover all the wounded area

yeah I'm well

I'm not bleeding anymore so

have you used the syringe markers

no it's important to make sure it doesn't get infected

it would be already from the debris that hit you

or simply from the clothes being over it

you need to inject some antibiotics in the area

right

there is a syringe with some local anesthetic

it is in the medikit with the rest

okay just

I'll just need a moment okay

when you found it stick it near the wounded area

brushing the blue end firmly will ready the needle

yeah I did it

let's give it a moment there is painkillers in the mix

too so you should feel better

you need to try and relax until you get here

and not strain yourself

there's always a danger you might bleed out

despite the skin glue

I'll stay in bed doctor

is there someone you would like us to call for you

next of kin that's a good idea

I'll call whoever you want

even if it's some floozy you like to hang out with

he's no one

a familiar voice might help you remember some things

I'm just just my father

I was gonna try and call him again

tell him what's happening okay good

let's do it Marcus I'll try him again doctor

I'll disconnect you now

you know how to call him if you need to check in

yes I do

thanks he's a bit intense too isn't he

what are you gonna tell your father like everything

what do you mean

I mean you gonna tell him about the wound and

well I'd be worried sick

you clearly don't know me

he's not like that

and plus he always knows if you lie to him

so no chance oh

that's a drag

my teenage years would have been very different

if my parents were like that

you won't believe it but anyway

I'm talking too much again

I'll call tell you later sure

thank you for contacting the Taco Corporation

we are sorry

we've been unable to take your call at this time

if you'd like to leave a message please

I'll try his other number just got it

you have reached the voicemail of Juliano Tyco

if you would no sorry

do you know where he would be at this time

I'll leave a message

okay I'll put you through to it again

do you want some privacy please

how do I connect back

your comms are open all the time unless you

close them

okay

I'll reconnect when I see the Tyco Court enters out

thanks

you have reached the voicemail of Juliano Tyco

if you would like to leave a message

please do so after the tone

hello father

I'd like to I'd like to talk to you

um

I've been through a lot

I have a

the service station black box with me

I know you suspect some malfunction with the air supply

that's caused problems before

and you've been unable to retrieve the data

after the accident

so I'm risking my life to bring it to you

and now it seems that Brian survived the accident too

but he's

he's been unable to establish contact with earth so

I've decided to execute a rescue mission and save him

if you could call me back via the Swindon Space Station

be good to hear your voice

thank you for your message

I'm sorry you had to leave a message

he might be asleep still it's early

it's fine huh Marcus

remember to watch your speed

yeah sorry

I'm sure you're in a hurry to get home

but you're going fast enough as it is

he says 15 knots I can handle that

well it's 15 k actually

like 8 kilometers per second

right

I think what you're doing is incredible

you know very brave

hey and you know what

you made the news already

I guess Ray Getty's greasing some wheels in media land

really yeah

hear this Marcus Tyco

son of Juliano Tyco CEO of Tyco Corp

only known survivor of mining station

evacuation during communication blackout

this incident is the last one in a series of recent

negative company reports

may force the company to bankruptcy and blah blah

blah blah blah

anyway there's more

there's a video wait

a video how an amateur astronomer sold it

I guess Silver Catcher Station

it's playing it's only 20 seconds

there's an escape pod missing

oh my God what

what your pod left just before

then the whole station exploded

Sarah

I can see the other pod

you are quite close I'll get Mr Getty please

Professor Chadachi wants to talk to you again

mind if I leave you with him

do you have to I'll be quick I promise

Marcus

I was just reviewing all the information available

trying to assess if you may have any long term damage

to the way you process memories

you're always good news professor

in the video that they are showing

the company shuttle you arrived in

doesn't explode until the pod have set off

however you told us that the shuttle had been destroyed

in the first explosion at the side of the station

this dissociation implies

you would have had the chance to leave in it

but didn't most importantly

it suggests possible damage in your

no it doesn't

and it was all very fast and confusing

the short may have been there

I don't know so I forget some details

so what what are you trying to say

why would I lie to you Marcus

details are important

the company will need to know what happened

there you go see

it's not about me is it

look I'm sure

you normally do an excellent job of harassing

the accident survivors for the sake of the company

of course but in this case

I'm already bringing back the stupid black box

I told me I understand

but we have obtained very useful data from brain scans

too the human brain is a black box in its own way

I'm not undergoing a painful surgical procedure

so that you can justify your job

it can be a bit unpleasant

yes but Marcus

it's a legal requirement for all accident survivors

astrotex oh yeah

well well

guess what I'm not one sorry

sorry to interrupt I'm back with Mister Getty

thanks for that professor

I'm afraid we're about to make contacts

I need to assist Marcus I understand Marcus

we'll keep talking later

ray I can see the pod through the front camera

yeah we can

we can see it here too you're quite close

we want to put your pod in parallel trajectory

to pod two I would reduce your speed first

keep it just over the 7 Mark

the autopilot on the other one stays on 7 k

so that will give you speed for a careful

smooth approach once you're there

you'll have to maintain it as close as you

can to the 7 k knots in a perfect world

your velocity relative to pot 2 would be zero

so it would be as if they're stationary

one by the other so you can take a good look at it

I understand now

there will be some deviation from the autopilot routes

in your trajectory by now

so

we're not sure exactly what side of your pod will face

pod 2 again

we receive rough positions here

so you'll have to judge it for yourself

so that you have working cameras at that side okay

okay

well it was showing at the uh the bottom of the screen

but it disappeared so that's good

it means that there's enough distance in between

you both

what direction is that the bottom and the front camera

what do you think down

you sure

uh

yeah that's correct

remember the training direction in space is arbitrary

no up or down but it'll be easiest to get your bearings

if you have the same coordinate system as the vehicle

the way you're approaching part 2

you should be able to switch to the camera below

that should be camera 2 was that one working Jack

you know it isn't and there and neither is free

I could see through that window

if I rotate like in the right direction

and it's better to use the cameras

you can zoom in and get more info okay

camera 1 does work I can use that one okay

you're going to have to rotate

plus 90 degrees around the top down axis clockwise

that will give you a good view

once you're in line with part 2

I recommend that you rotate first

so that you can then focus solely on getting the speed

right for parallel position

do you remember how to rotate

I do I think you either do or you don't Marcus

we don't want the two pods crashing into each other

and shooting off into space

remember you don't have enough references to tell

but you are moving very very fast

I remember

okay clear for procedure

I've rotated 90 degrees excellent do you have a visual

I still need to get closer

do it gently I'm doing it

okay I'll see it

I have a visual yes

well done Marcus are both pods aligned

there will be no time let me know when you are

are you with a safe distance

I know it's hard to judge

but once you're in parallel

let me know that portion of pod 2

you can see we'll calculate the distance here

based on the focal length of the cameras

and the size of the pods don't zoom in for now

okay

I'm in position okay

Marcus describe what you see

the other part takes about 90% of my screen

do you see any material attached to it

not from here no

seems to be some damage on the front

that makes sense it

it was

probably a hard launch with the station falling apart

I can't see any more from here though

perhaps I should wait

wait what

it's rotating I think

the autopilot keeps it rotating

slightly around its axis

you'll be able to see it all around

I can see the other side

it's rotating at the the dock inside

oh what is it Marcus

it seems to be getting closer

but I'm not doing anything

Marcus you're an autopilot

yeah I switched to stay in position

Marcus get back to manual now

it's okay I remember

I can you can't share the same return route

the autopilot will correct your position

until you both crash Marcus

get okay okay

now Marcus

do it quick there's a delay in the response

do it now before you crash

well I've done it

I've done it but he's not responding

and push the sticks at an angle

opposite to the approach as hard as you can

that way you'll be ready and moving

as soon as the part responds

Marcus

Marcus are you okay Marcus

Marcus how bad was it Marcus

oh um Marcus

Marcus I'm okay

oh god

it could have been a lot worse

I seem to have lost some

some systems

nothing too important though

okay Marcus

that's good news let's go back to the visual inspection

what do you see on the docking side

there is there is some damage to the docking platform

um some bent metal dents

I don't see any sign of any debris though

so what do we do now we don't

we ruled out the little hope

we had to find and remove any debris

I meant about the docking

the bent parts will make docking imperfect

so the connecting airlocks won't be sealed

which means that the vacuum of space would

suck the air out through any little holes

pin you to the wall

and then suck you through those same holes too

it it

it's just not possible Marcus

I understand

let's think of another plan then

Marcus there is no other plan Marcus well

well get back to your team and come up with something

because I am not giving up on Brian

Marcus I have a call from your father he called back

shall I put him through

you take it Marcus

I'll

I'll talk to the team okay

yeah yeah

okay yeah

yeah patching you through now

I don't know why I'm doing this

doing what

how are you feeling father

what do you want Marcus

why don't you begin father

you're older wiser

you probably know what to say

in situations such as these

you called I assumed you had something to say

probably going to die

why haven't you been keeping up

did you not listen to my message

I'm in a high risk rescue mission

to save Brian so

you do know

I have a team looking into options right now

I think you made the right decision

you'll be hero in the eyes of the media

I'll see to that with that context

you can at least show some gratitude

even Ray Getty has been appreciative of my efforts

on what I've tried to do he said that I've done well

that the company owes me

I told him to say that station destroyed

most profitable dead

this is a financial disaster

probably the last one Tyco can survive

I was trying to butter you up before the press had to

use the positive side of things while

well while you're there

you never believed in me I wanted you Marcus

you just never did anything that made me believe

you had it so easy

you could have done anything you wanted with your life

the company could have been yours by now

I tried that remember you

you thought it wasn't good enough

trying is not doing

you didn't really want me anywhere near

that company of yours that's the truth

and who wants you near Marcus

you had 24 hours with the station operatives

was that

enough time for them to want to get away from you too

don't cheapen it

I had a more meaningful experience with those people

in 24 hours that I've had with you my entire life

I wasn't the one to fail the test

if you wanted to be up there

you should have worked harder

you wanted me to fail

that's why you let me take the training

you wanted me to get within

touching distance of my dream

but never let me taste it

if I die it will be on you

you are twisted Marcus

but I'm your father

I have to wish you the best

it's just me

Mr Getty and the professor are still on hold

hey

I I was listening I couldn't help myself

what I'm really

really sorry but I wanted to say

he has no right to treat you like this

such a nice guy and what you're doing

he just doesn't appreciate it you know

there's a lot of people out there following the news

who I'm sure are very impressed

and I'm impressed too you know

I think you're

you're a bit of a hero thanks

yeah listen to this

another news site

the incredible story of survival of inspiring non

astronaut Marcus Tyco continues

it has surfaced now

that one of the actual astronauts of the station

may be alive too

although reportedly badly injured

and Marcus is working with the earth team

to attempt an emergency rescue

they're covering it all over the world

wow right

they love you Marcus

yeah

you're right Sarah

when you get back here you'll be a hero

like officially

and I will have to fight off the bloody paparazzi

to get my dinner

you won't have to

not so sure we'll see

I can't disappoint you all

that's not going to happen Marcus

okay

get Ray back on please

time is of the essence okay

Marcus here we go

Ray

Marcus how are you doing Marcus

has the pain subsided yeah

no yeah I'm feeling batteries

it's a lot better now Marcus

I want you to know that

I have the team working on the options already

but you have to be realistic

there is a very slim chance this time

and you need to accept that Brian no

I know what I'm gonna do

you do

I'll get closer

and then I'll fire myself across

through the emergency airlock

oh God Marcus

Marcus that is plain suicide

you don't even have a suit

do you well

I'll improvise one then

out of what I've got many gloves here

I can

I can duct tape into my hands and I'll cover my face

too you'd last 10 seconds

so that's a no

that could be long enough if if the pods are closed

tell me how the emergency airlock controls work

we are not going to tell you how to kill yourself

Marcus Marcus

it's crazy that's not gonna be an option

we're not gonna let people need inspiration Sarah

you said that that's not what I meant

Ray

I'm sorry but I'm the one up here

I'm doing it figure out a way to get me in that pot

or just stay out of my way

remember the black box Marcus right

you gift to this company to your father

if you don't make it he'll lose that too well

maybe he doesn't deserve it Marcus

remember you have a very serious wound

the strain of the jump alone may open it

you can easily bleed out I'll be careful

I'm using the decompression as impulse anyway

that way

I won't have to use too much of a physical effort

be reasonable Marcus listen to the professor

Ray you know Brian well

you've been to space with him

haven't you yes

I have he's

he's a good man now

tell me that if you were in my position

you wouldn't do everything that you could to save him

there is a precedent

Robert Hale did a similar emergency Eva in 32 right

you can turn the autopilot back on

that will get you closer what

we calculate

that you're a distance of about 8 to 9 meters

so the route correction gives us about 3 to 4 minutes

before collision I'll put the team together again

to get back to you with more instructions

thanks Ray

and that's it that's how you handle space missions now

we send people we don't like to die Sarah

he's made up his mind let's try and remain professional

we can help him maximize his chance of success

professional right

Marcus I'll be back

I hope you are proud of yourself Sarah

God

you really want that dinner

don't you you think this is a joke

Marcus right

right the team is working we

we we think it might actually work great but

we have to be realistic

we simply don't have enough information

to assess the state of Part 2

we know there is some power

since we were able to see on screen here

and bounce the radio signal off it

so the battery is not completely drained

this means there should be air

and regulated temperature but

but we can't know for sure

is there any way we can take care with me just in case

if you didn't have that

it would likely be because of power issues

you bringing a tank is not going to help

and you need to jump away with as little as possible

anyway okay

so what's the plan we cannot dock safely

so we're going to stay at a prudential distance

we don't want the pods crashing

and bouncing off each other

at the exact moment the airlock for Pod 2 is facing you

you are going to open your airlock

to catapult yourself in a straight line

sounds feasible it is

if we do it right

won't the pod still crash with the autopilot

yes they would

you need to switch it off just before you leave

there is a timer you can press

it's programmed to give you a few minutes

before it changes to manual

okay I understand great

how do I open the hatch from the inside there

there was a switch to one side of the panel

labeled airlock it should be overhead okay

then there are two

large buttons placed inside the airlock

the black one is the one you must press

that one will launch you into space

black space makes sense

from the outside there is a yellow lever

use a camera now find it on part 2

next time it rotates in your direction

so that you know where it is

understood

providing the lever is not damaged

a good pull is all you need to open the hatch

then once inside the airlock

it should close automatically

then you press the other large button the white one

black space white inside exactly

now Marcus

let's do this let's just know the exact moment

when the airlock is facing you directly

we know the autopilot rotation speed

so that will allow us to cue you

you need us to tell you

since you won't have a camera to look at

once you're inside the airlock

understood

and there

okay Marcus

great we have it on time

and now is there anything else I should know

yes speed is key

be quick

you may lose consciousness in as little as 15 seconds

and then there was no way anyone can help you

15 seconds right

I can hold my breath for longer than that right

not in space Marcus

not without a suit

any air you hold in will do you more damage than good

once your body starts experiencing the pressure change

but I'll have longer but that air would rapidly expand

and rub to your lungs now about that suit

I'd use a skin glue as an additional sealing

if you have any left that's a good idea thanks Marcus

you also need to think about your other orifices

my what now do you have a foreskin

because you might want to seal that up

first with the skin glue and then your anus

oh God I think I'm gonna be sick right

we'll give you a moment just let us no

no just look

let's just do it

you do what you gotta do

get ready and I'm I'll be okay

I think that's it just so you know

each turn takes about three minutes

once you're all set up

just let us know and get in position

we'll shout you the queue then you go understand

yeah when I hear the queue I go right

don't delay it or you'll miss it

even if you could move around the surface

and you can't you don't have time okay

what are you taking with you

uh the black box and the medic kit

that's too much

there is no point in bringing the medic kit

there are glass components to it

which will get crushed in space

we'll have to trust the one in part 2

is it good condition and treat Brian with that okay

when I pick up the comms as soon as you can

the professor will be here to help you

help Brian and yourself if needs be

there must be another way Sarah

I have to do this please don't be mad at me

there comes a out

what if we can't get in contact with you again

we think it'll work once Marcus picks up from there

but yes it's there is a risk that we're taking

if the problem was that the com cables were damaged

but the power was enough

then there is a quick fix that we can discuss

but that's all we can do

I remember how to do that Ray from the training alright

that's good Sarah I remember how to do that

that date means a lot to me too

you know does it really yeah

it's all I can think about

I hope you tell me the rest of the story

about when you were a teenager

no it's nothing

I used to drink my father's liquors

and refill them with water

what I wouldn't do for some liquor right now

you didn't tell me your story either about your dad

it's not much of a story

he used to have an electric toy startup

it's one of his first businesses

he

I used to hang around there a lot when I was a kid

because it was fun

I I used to get in trouble all the time because I'd

I'd steal the unfinished models

and then lie about it afterwards

you sound like a ripe brat

I guess I was a bit anyway

my father once

told me that he could always tell when I was lying

cause he could see it in my eyes

so the next time I took a model

I closed my eyes so he couldn't see anything

he laughed so hard

I never made him laugh so hysterically

he actually cried

you're right

that's not much of a story

you need to tell me a better one next time oh

I'll have a great one next time

okay

we're getting into the airlock

remember to deactivate the autopilot

done now good luck Marcus

please be careful

thanks I will

Marcus can you hear us

hardly one minute get ready

this is a bad idea

now

no no

no no

no no

I'm really sorry Brian

help me help me

you have to help me please

he's not breathing Marcus

what do I do Marcus

you made it

yeah yeah

yeah brain

he's not he's not responding

I'm I'm I'm doing CPR

come back to me Brian Professor

I'll I'll get the professor

hold on Marcus

I'll I'll put everyone on the comms

come on come back to me

don't you do this don't you dare

is that Brian fellas Marcus

yeah he's not responding

can you give him adrenaline from your medic kit

yeah

I'm gonna give him a shot

wait wait wait

come on come on

come on come on

oh Brian

oh thank God

I've got a pulse I've got a pulse oh

thank God

fight Brian

come on talk to us Marcus

we can't see you he's

he's he's still breathing

but he won't wake up that's okay Marcus

we're just stabilizing him okay

what I don't know if it worked

check his pulse slow and solid is good okay

I can feel it I can feel it

I think he's okay do you think he's gonna be okay

you've done all you can for now

no

you've done well Marcus

Marcus how are you you don't sound good

I'm okay

I'm just in a lot of pain

um I might take some more of those painkillers

that is fine Marcus

do it I'll go

send a global search and rescue alert for the landing

good job Marcus

let's focus on getting the two of you home

snap quick you've done amazing

I'm so proud thanks

you're all over the news I even had the KBNC News 24

wanting to do a live broadcast

I said that you had more important things to be doing

told them to go away that that's great

do you think I could

Marcus let's run through the checklist first okay

see what we can count on and then

Wah

can't be a hero if you're dead already

I really hoped you wouldn't have to do it again

you know

I hoped you wouldn't be alive

copy Marcus

can you hear us hello Marcus

what was that I

I touched the wire by mistake

and the comms panel seems to be in a bad state anyway

thanks everyone Ray I'm I'm gonna do the checklist okay

I start to think you're enjoying scaring us sorry Ray

the airtime looks okay

looks like all exterior cameras are down

may just be frozen

it's quite cold in here is the black box safe Marcus

any cracks or signs of damage

can't see any that's great news Marcus great news

the battery is red though

okay but we'll do some power calculations

see what we can do to save that battery until landing

in the meantime switch off the camera display

and don't touch the controls

that will save some power for now

how long till London about 3 hours

now you'll be touching the atmosphere very shortly no

no no negative

Brian doesn't have that long he's bleeding very heavily

eh need to get there faster Marcus

the only option to cut the time would be a

Vasquez drive

and it's only been achieved in the simulator

not again he's gonna kill himself of course

of course

I could I could be at a hospital in 25 minutes

you could also blow up on the reentry in 10

or skip off the atmosphere into deep space

if you get the angle wrong within a degree

we're not gonna be able to help you on this one

you'll be on your own that's okay

that's not okay Marcus don't throw your life away

what's the problem anyway right

worst case scenario

it's not like we lose a valuable astrotech

and I get to have done a space mission whatever happens

win win

no one's gonna miss me anyway

I'll tell you that Marcus

that's not true

I can do this I can help even if I bleed out

Brian may be able to make it and that is enough for me

there must be another way Sarah

I need to do this

I've never been more certain of anything

in all my stupid life there must be another way

I I don't know um Mr Getty

Sarah I I I don't see it

Marcus if you're going to try this

it should be while you still have some power agreed

what

what speed did Vasquez do in the simulations

was it 25 k what are you doing Marcus

25.2 K knots Marcus with the greatest respect Marcus

you're not a patch on Fernando Vasquez oh no way

but I can I can fly this I'm not gonna try to do it

I'm going to do it okay

there's nothing else I can do for you from here buddy

just remember

your spacecraft is damaged and running out of power

you don't have very long keep your eyes on your angle

and put everything you have into keeping it straight

until you can start reducing speed pass

what's the hot point yeah

I will t v Marcus

wait and if that battery light starts blinking

you have minutes of power left

so the best thing to do is Marcus

that's it stop it Ray

I disconnected him

now you have no help and you have to stop this nonsense

I don't need any more help

but the principal's actually quite straight forward

just going really fast

and a break with everything I've got

straight forward it's never been done

why are you doing this you're nearly home

I didn't know Brian would be hurt so badly forget Brian

I can't what am I gonna tell his wife

tell her Brian died

you did everything you could to save him

Marcus

if you deflect off into space you'll die and so be it

you said it meant a lot to you Sarah

you gave me so much strength today

I couldn't have done this without you

you know that right

I I don't know what to say Marcus

don't say anything just see you soon on the other side

okay

hey you know that interview you mentioned

I'd like to do it really yeah

keep my spirits up don't you think

maybe sure

if you want to I'll call them back thanks sir

means a lot

listen I need to go now

but Sarah I had I'll see you at the other side Marcus

Marcus before we disconnect

I have to ask you what are you still doing here

you know I'm playing with my life right now right

Marcus I need to ask

is there anything else you've remembered about

what happened at the station

no like no

he's not this is gonna have to be

I don't remember what happened

I don't remember any of the details

it's just all blurry okay

it's consistent after such a traumatic experience

that's why it did make sense

don't even mention it

I'm not an astrotik I'm not gonna do it

I don't have to and I won't

I'm sorry to hear Marcus perhaps

no one needs to know the details anyway do they

I did as much as I could to save you

that's all they need to know

I can do it Brian

I know I can I'm good at this

no one wants me to be but I am

don't look at me like that

I'm not a bad person

it just has to be me

that takes the pot box of my father

it has to be me not you

I say father

this is my gift to you

the gift that only I could bring

not the user after text no Brian's Brian couldn't

Brian

Brian

you'll know Brian

he always comes

hello Marcus

Marcus we can see your position here

you you you seem to be an orbit

I know

I'll talk to the team

see if we can come for you before Ray

no Ray Ray

it's too late

I have no battery left I won't make it

I'm I'm sorry Marcus

I shouldn't let you do it

it's my decision

hey look um

thanks for all your help anyway

yeah

I wish I could do more

I'd like to speak to Sarah before I have

of course I'll disconnect

Marcus

Marcus it's

it's been a pleasure to work with you

likewise

Sarah

Marcus what have you done

what

sir

how you holding up

um

I'd rather not talk about it

yeah sure

Sarah please don't be angry at me though

I had to I have the interview guys waiting

should probably patch them up

shouldn't I well

I am running low on juice I'll put them through

Marcus ah

this is Rob one of the producers

can you hear us okay yeah

I can hear you Rob

okay great

we're 60 seconds to air we're very excited about this

Marcus what you've done is absolutely incredible

I just wanted to say we've been told

I'm really sorry the reentry didn't work

thanks

but Marcus you need to know

everyone down here is hooked by your story

and after tonight

that story will truly be out there to inspire people

you know that right

I care

Rob you have no idea how much that means to me
