- [Speaker] Ten, nine, eight,

seven, six, five, four,

three, two, one.

Ignition.

(explosion sounds)

- I have this dream.

Same thing over and over.

I'm drowning.

A sea of endless black everywhere,

yet nowhere to go.

It's terrible, but it's not even my worst dream.

In that one I'm not drowning, not even swimming,

but the endless black comes for me anyway.

And that darkness, it knows my name.

- Status.

- [Robot] Systems online, anchoring drill complete.

- Well done.

Mission parameters.

- [Robot] Downloading.

Gather and study ice surface samples, core samples,

subsurface water samples, sonar lidar mapping of sea floor.

Assess for H3 harvesting accessibility.

- Whoa, you just scared the daylights out of me.

- Mira.

- Decker.

The operator.

They almost make you the science officer?

- Just right. - Yeah, surprised you up.

- Here I am.

- Sure enough.

There any others along?

- It's just me.

- Well, they never tell me much beyond where I'm going.

They say fancy things like information

for you, science folks.

Okay, well here we are, alone on the dangerous moon,

about 900 million miles away from the sun.

It's your first flight?

- This is a new experience for me.

(system beeping)

- Well, this is my fifth.

The great westward expansion

is now the great stellar expansion.

The pay never improves, but the food's even worse.

But they're both still better than back home.

Now the ship says we are here for core samples

of surface ice, surface air, subsurface water.

Excuse me, fluids.

If it was water, they have to patent it.

All the big reds are busy on your roper.

So here we are skimming the outer moons

of the surface to see what's out there.

You ready for some skimming?

Hey, you okay?

- I'm sorry. It's just a lot to adjust to.

- Oh, don't worry about it.

Everyone gets the sleep hangover first few times.

You'll get used to it.

So we're in the moon of Titan, yes?

All right, so we're to obtain ice samples

and long range sea floor maps to assess this route

for resource harvesting potential.

Yeah?

Yeah. Okay, okay.

Now the liquid here is much more ammonia.

That's much more ammonia than earth's ocean.

That makes the density much lower,

harder to stay afloat, but less pressure.

Now we can go deeper with less of a sub. Good thing too.

All right, look at this.

They have to keep them lean

and tight enough to escape earth's gravity, right?

Mission accomplished.

But we are not going deep, thank goodness.

Just under the sub to get floor mapping

and test the surface strength to see if it's strong enough

to hold the big rigs later.

All right. You ready?

I'm required to get a yes or no before we start.

- Yes, I'm ready.

- All right, let's get to it then.

A few days here gives me 10 times a house pay back home

and way less hazard.

Ah.

(system beeping)

Thank goodness we're not staying out here for long.

Subsurface be way more peaceful.

But it is a sight though, isn't it?

A waste too.

All this space and no one to use it.

Maybe we'll find some bacteria or ancient dog shit there

and really catch everyone by surprise, right?

A billion years from now,

it'll grow into a fungus.

Nah, well, once the drill rigs are here,

it'll fill up quick.

Okay, let's get moving.

Engaging surface drill.

(drill whirring)

- The ice is holding steady.

Drill too.

Looks like halfway there.

(system beeping)

(ice cracking)

- And bingo.

Welcome to Titan.

- You ready to go out? - Outside?

Man, you more hungover than I thought.

No, not even the suit can protect us out there.

The sub detaches from the land and scoops on over

and in we go.

Detaching from lander now.

Closing in on drill site.

And there it is.

(beeping)

I hate this part.

Believe it or not,

I hate the water.

I wouldn't get near it without our lifelines.

Keeping a safe one on the lander

and one on the drill just for safety.

Still giving me the willies just thinking about it.

No time like the present.

In we go and activating the crane.

(air whooshing)

(machine whirring)

Time to make a name for ourselves, right?

(machine whirring)

(beeping)

(suspenseful music)

Don't worry, that's from the temperature differential.

It's much colder down here. Should even out soon.

Let's see.

An notion of ammonia methane,

it can reach temperatures much colder

than water without freezing.

See, that's why this isn't one big lump of ice.

- Oh, the plain water.

Hydrogen and oxygen separate

and freeze instantly when they hit the surface.

Hence the crust.

- Yeah.

- See, it makes a nice protective layer.

- Engaging claw tracks now.

(system beeping)

There we go.

We got a good grip on the surface ice above.

Just try not to look down.

(sub humming)

- That'll take your breath away.

- Literally.

Gives me the creeps.

The abyssal depths, the dead zone, the big nothing.

No one even knows how deep this hole goes.

- Let's find out.

(machine wailing)

I am getting readings of about 10,000 feet.

- Yikes.

- No. Oh, scratch that, could be more.

Much more.

The interference gets too strong to read any further.

Let's call it at least 10,000.

What's that?

- Turbulence. A strong current kicked up and got us.

- There are huge currents here,

like the cloud patterns on earth.

- This is like a storm, a water storm?

- A pattern, yes,

but they cover the whole world

from the circus down to the deeps.

- Oh no, oh no.

I'll stay right here at the surface, thank you very much.

Any trouble and we'll just pull ourselves back up.

(water bubbling)

If this is as bad as it gets, I'll move forward.

(system beeping)

Can you try sonar on the sea floor?

- Sonar ping in three, two, one.

(sub whirring)

Data coming back, putting on audio now.

(sub whirring)

- That doesn't sound like sonar.

(brooding music)

What was that?

- I think it's coming from the ice.

- Oh, wait a minute.

Those are impact sounds. Listen.

(water bubbling)

Activating downward view.

(system beeping)

There.

Bubbles?

What the hell is making them?

- Could be pockets of gas released from the sea floor.

- But what's releasing them?

- Could be geothermal activity.

- Oh, they look big.

- I think it's like a weather pattern.

They hit the surface and gather into pockets.

I bet if enough of them gather,

they condense and then fall back down.

- Yeah, but I'd rather not find out.

This wasn't in the mission plan.

And if one of those hits us, they can knock us loose.

Hell no. I'm taking us back.

(sub grumbling)

- What was that?

- I got it. Okay, activating crane.

Ah.

(system beeping)

- What was that?

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Ah, no.

They shouldn't have frozen over so quickly.

- The bubbles, they have a different chemical makeup

than the rest of the water.

They must have a lower freezing point.

They hit the surface and then freeze up.

- I'll reactivate the drill.

If we can get in, we can get out.

Oh, come on. Almost there.

- Decker.

- I said hold on.

- Decker, look.

- Oh shit.

It's not gonna make it.

Almost there. Almost there.

- Hang on.

(water bubbling)

(suspenseful music)

Okay, here comes the safety line.

(system beeping)

- The lifeline got us.

- Is that the only thing holding us up?

- For now, yes.

We have to bring ourselves back up.

(beeping continues)

Activating winch.

Closing in

five, four, three.

- What was that? - I don't know.

(system beeping)

- The line, it's slipping. - How?

- The bubbles.

- The gas is condensing the lifeline,

gumming up the motor and lubricating the line.

We're losing ground.

- How much slack does the line have left?

- Not much. Ah.

I'll disengage the crane.

We can't move up but we should clamp on the line.

Lock us in place.

- But if we can't go up. - Better than going down.

Oh.

(suspenseful music)

Okay, so we are hanging free in the water.

We could try and heat the line to thaw the ice

or we can wait for the current to let up

and hope we can climb with less drag on the line.

(water bubbling)

- It's not letting up. - Oh no, no, it isn't.

What was that?

- It sounded like ice.

- It is a surface ice. It's breaking.

- We have to do something

- If we...

If we can establish neutral buoyancy,

it should at least reduce some of the drag on the line.

Then it's just holding us in place rather than up

and in place.

- Can you do that? - I don't know. I can try.

Water is so tricky.

It's much harder to stay neutral.

Too much buoyancy. We are smashing into the surface to look.

I'm not sure which is worse.

It's time to find out.

(brooding music)

- The ice.

- Come on.

(system beeping)

- I got it.

We floating free. No more drag on the line.

- Yeah.

Do you see that?

(water bubbling)

- Yeah.

What is it?

It looks like... Ice.

- From the surface.

(suspenseful music)

That's a lot of ice. - They're getting bigger.

- Why are they getting bigger?

- Decker. Decker, that's why.

(dramatic music)

- Hang on.

- Can we pull it up? - No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

(alarm beeping)

- What's that?

- The pressure alarms,

the sub was never meant to go this deep.

It's crushing us.

- But the pressure here is lower.

- That's the only reason we're still alive,

but we're still sinking.

- What can we do?

- We got to get free of that crane before it crushes.

- But without the crane-

- Yeah, yeah, just one thing at a time.

I'm gonna cut the line.

- But the crane.

- We can still use the line on the surface and try pull up.

But we can't do anything from the bottom of this ocean.

- Do it.

(sub whirring)

- It must be frozen in place.

Damn, screw this ice.

- Is there any other way to cut the line?

- I don't know.

I can't cut the line but we might let go of it.

- How?

(suspenseful music)

- The tow anchor should be right around here.

If I can get these loose,

the pull on the lifeline should jerk the whole assembly out.

- Is the ocean going to come rushing

in once you get those off?

- Oh, I sure hope not. - What about the cranes?

- Well if it pulls away,

we won't be able to hook another line to the ship.

We'll have to find another way back to the land.

- Is there another way?

- Not that I can think of.

(system beeping)

It has got to be easier from up there than down here.

(suspenseful music)

(metal clanking)

- There it goes.

- It's still descended.

- The crane must have pulled us too deep.

- Damn water here, the estimates were all wrong.

- This deep down, we're even less buoyant.

The water is literally pushing us deeper.

- Well, that's all we got. We still got to slow our descent.

- How? - Drop the weight.

What's the heaviest thing on here?

- I don't know.

- How can you not know when you're the damn science officer?

Did you not study the ship?

Did you really come down here so clueless?

Batteries.

Batteries got to be the heaviest.

We need the engine,

but we can probably sacrifice a few batteries.

Damn.

I hate this.

Okay, you can cut them loose with these switches.

I have to hold the manual override

so I'll let you dump them.

Okay. - Where?

- These and these now these,

or you dump them all and we drown all over again.

- Got it. - Okay, here we go.

All right.

Go. - One.

Two.

- Ah.

(system beeping)

Neutral buoyancy achieved.

- Well done. - What?

- That was quick thinking.

We could have very easily died there.

- Very. - You made good choices.

Well done.

- I'm sorry I snapped at you.

Just because you're less experienced in this cell

doesn't mean you're not capable of learning it.

If we're gonna make it out of here alive,

we got to do it together.

Now all that did was delay our deaths.

Now we're stranded under an ocean bigger

than the Pacific with no way to get out.

Now I could burn all our energy

and hope it gets us to the top.

But with this messed up density down here,

I don't know if it will.

Jesus.

Even if it does, we still won't have a way out,

thanks to the crane.

- One step at a time.

- Yeah.

Let's send out a sonar ping.

We can get a better depth reading

and see how screwed we really are.

- We should turn down other systems

to minimize interference.

(beeping)

- All clear.

(air whooshing)

Did you hear that?

- I think that's the ice.

(suspenseful music)

But it's coming from down below.

- I don't think that's ice.

- I think it's the ping echoing off the ice.

That ice sheet could cover the entire moon.

Whenever we ping it,

it's like striking a planet sized drum.

- Can you focus the sonar downward only?

How about a little light?

(light beaming)

- Data coming in.

That ping skipped halfway around the entire globe.

The entire moon looks like one endless ocean.

We're nowhere near the bottom.

The ocean floor is uneven,

but depths range from 10,000 to 50,000 feet deep.

That's deeper than any ocean on earth.

- And we are smack in the middle of it.

How deep do you think we are?

- About 15,000 feet down.

- I don't like this. I don't like this.

I don't want to sit in the middle of the ocean like this.

Can you set the ping to hit every couple minutes?

I like to keep ears on what's around us.

- Done.

Got something. - Something?

- Ahead.

Up, coming down.

- Where?

- About 30 degrees up, 400 yards out.

Getting closer.

(suspenseful music)

- What the hell was that?

It's more of them?

- The ice.

It's the surface ice.

The bubbles condense, freeze and fall back down.

It's like a rain cycle.

- Look at that one.

Oh wow. This is huge.

What is that? Ice crystals?

Look at that one.

Look at that one.

They stopped sinking with it. Why is that?

Are they...

Are they coming towards us?

Shit, it sure looks like they are.

Could it be the metal fragments in the ice

drawn to the magnetic field of the hole?

- They're drawn to the lights.

- They?

You don't think they...

Oh shit, they still coming.

I'll back us up.

(sub whirring)

Could they be caught on our wake?

Oh, no way.

Holy shit.

Shit, they swimming right at us.

(sub whirring)

Oh, they're alive.

Ah, I can't shake them.

They eating at the sub.

- More are coming.

- If I can't shake them, maybe I can force them off.

- Do we have the power for this?

- I don't have any better ideas.

I think they were eating at all the wires on the hole.

Honestly, I don't...

I don't know what to do.

I don't think we should have come here. I'm sorry.

Can you look out the bat to see if they're coming?

- Oh no.

- What?

What was that?

At least they're eating the other one.

- Decker. - Oh no.

No.

- We have to go.

(sub wailing)

We are losing power.

(suspenseful music)

- Oh no, we can't dodge that.

- Down. Go down. - What?

- It'll lessen the relative speed of the ice.

- Oh right, right, right, right, right.

Then it pushes us rather than crushing us.

- [Mira] Yeah.

- Hang on.

(sub whirring)

I think it's working. We're getting drawn into its weight.

- No, cut the engines.

I killed the lights. - What?

- Unless you want your friends up there following us down.

- Yeah.

All right, here we go.

(suspenseful music)

- Okay, we're coming to the bottom.

- Then what?

- On my mark, we'll fire the engines

and break free from the wake just before impact.

Here we go.

Bottom's coming up.

Three, two, one.

Now.

(sub whirring)

Bad news is we're about 20,000 feet deep now.

- What's the good news?

- We're on a ledge with a drop to about 50,000 feet.

- How's that good news?

- We're at the top of it rather than the bottom of it.

- Okay, so 20,000 of one, 50,000 of another.

- The good news is we're still alive.

- Yeah, for now.

- That's what you said last time.

And we're still alive.

- And in a much worse position.

- 50,000, 20,000.

- Okay. Good thinking back there.

Yeah.

You saved us and I froze up.

- You did good.

We've both bitten off more than we can chew,

but we just might make it out of here alive.

- At least we can't get ambushed from below down here.

- Can the sub hold the pressure at this depth?

- Oh well, like you said, we're alive, aren't we?

But you're right though.

We probably shouldn't stay down here for long.

See, our air supply will run out sooner too.

It has to work much harder this deep.

So let's try and gain some horizontal distance between us

and that swarm before making it sink.

And maybe we can find an up cropping

or something for shelter as we climb.

Yeah. Anything's better than being naked in the open.

Got a directional preference.

- Well, the ledge is a starboard,

so any direction other than that.

- Deal.

(sub whirring)

Let's keep the lights low so we don't draw our friends back.

- Ew.

- Can you send out a ping?

Let's navigate by that instead.

(system beeping)

- Coast looks clear.

- Life on another world.

Being off, I wasn't scared shitless.

- I heard a saying once that the ocean is a galaxy.

It makes sense there'd be life here.

So much matter and energy constantly moving.

This place is a vortex.

- We're so close to hall.

I mean this is our front doorstep.

There's alien life in our own neighborhood.

What else is out there?

- I heard another saying once that the galaxy is an ocean.

- I just hope we live long enough to tell everyone about it.

That'll change everything.

- I hope so too.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Back, back, back, back, back, back.

What the hell was that? Is it a mountain?

Where are the foothills?

The solar didn't pick it up.

Why didn't the solar pick it up?

- It's not a mountain.

It's not dense enough to be a mountain.

That's why we didn't pick it up.

With the low density of the ocean,

anything could have sunk.

- Well, I wanna risk more light. Get a better look at it.

- Mm.

- Oh God.

- Without the same pressures of an ocean like earth's,

there's no limit to how large things can get here.

As long as it can catch prey.

- Catching prey.

You know, a swarm of angry shrimp, that's one thing.

But this, I don't need this.

I don't want this. I'm not equipped for this.

- Wouldn't you rather discover it like this

than find a live one?

- I would rather not know.

I was much happier

before I knew this thing existed and called prey.

- If it makes you feel any better,

we're probably too small to be of any interest to it.

- That does not make me feel even a ounce better.

It means there's another sea monster out there

that is big enough to be of interest

to whatever this belonged to.

And it means we're probably

just the right size for it to eat.

- Decker, turn the lights off.

- What? - Hurry.

(water bubbling)

- Where is it?

(suspenseful music)

- Oh shit. Might as well have some light.

- There's a network of capes to port.

- Where? - Up ahead.

Just up ahead.

- Got it.

See in the openness? - There should be several.

- Right, right, right, right, right, right.

(sub whirring)

I see one now.

Left, right or middle?

Don't think, just guess. No time.

- Middle. - Gotcha.

(sub whirring)

Well done.

- Where are you heading? - Anywhere but there.

Maybe this tunnel connects out the bat.

- Mm. How about a ping?

(sonar pinging)

It looks like the cave narrows in up ahead.

It should be cozy, but enough room him to pass.

- Yeah. I see.

Oh yeah. Very cozy.

(sub whirring)

(suspenseful music)

Mira? - Hmm?

- Do you see what I see?

(suspenseful music)

They're coming towards us.

- There were other tunnels in here.

Let's try another one above us.

(suspenseful music)

- Where do we go?

- There.

(sub whirring)

Okay.

I see the exit.

There.

(sonar pinging)

- No sound of that eel.

- No.

- I'm no biologist, but doesn't it seem strange to you

how similar these things look to life on earth?

- The galaxy is an ocean.

- Maybe life has certain requirements to survival.

Adaptability mechanisms,

and when they aren't met, they don't make it.

- Evolution on a galactic scale.

- Something like that.

Let's just hope we make the cut.

- Damn. - What's wrong?

- Navigation's out.

Must have been damaged bouncing around in that tunnel.

I could barely tell which way it sunk.

I see light that way.

Must be toward the surface.

That's not too far.

Maybe those tunnels brought us up closer

to the surface than I thought.

(sub whirring)

Could we have caught a curb that lifted us up?

- It's possible.

- I swear that light's getting further away.

Are we sinking?

- The depth gauge was damaged, but I don't think so.

- I think the engines are working.

Let me get my burst to see.

(sub whirring)

Yuck.

I swear that light is getting further.

- That's not the surface, Decker.

- What? - Stop the engines.

- What is it? - Turn the light on quick.

(system beeping)

- Oh shit - We need to go quickly.

(sub whirring)

Now you can bring the engine.

- We need cover. - Then go down.

- We're supposed to be going up.

- We're supposed to be staying alive.

We're coming up on the bottom.

You can pull up now.

Right now.

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I have an idea.

- Decker.

- I know, I know.

(water bubbling)

Covering our escape works well for an octopus.

So why not us?

(water bubbling)

- Oh, there's a rock formation about 400 feet to port.

(sub whirring)

- I don't think they see us.

(water bubbling)

- I think they're moving on.

(sonar pinging)

Shit.

- Decker, the ledge. We're coming up on the ledge.

The ledge.

(suspenseful music)

- Oh, we lost them.

- I don't think we did.

- Well, I don't see them anywhere.

- I think they left.

- Why would they leave? They were right on us.

(water bubbling)

- Wait.

- I think it already sees us.

(sonar pinging)

The sonar, do it again.

(sonar pinging)

Again.

Again.

I don't wanna kill the damn thing.

I just don't want to be killed by it.

Okay, ready?

Go.

(sonar pinging)

(monster screeching)

- How?

How?

We can't keep this speed up alone.

I can't shake them.

- We're making too much noise.

- It's a motor. It wasn't built to be quiet.

- We're making it too easy for them to follow us.

Think about it.

It's a quiet ocean where everything hides

and here we are with bright lights, rhythmic motor turning

through the water and waves echoing out in every direction.

We might as well ring a dinner bell every time we move.

- Then what do we do?

- You have to break up the patterns.

Randomize the motor and course we take

so it's not so easy for everything to track us.

- Oh, that's easy for you to say.

I'm the one who has to do it.

- I know it's easy for me to say because it's the truth.

Stop thinking of this place like a swimming pool

we just have to cross in like a medium

that we exist inside of.

It's like the surface of a drum

and this sub is hammering it.

- Fine.

Fine.

Ping them again and I'll break the pattern.

- Okay.

(monster growling)

Okay.

I think it's working.

(sub whirring)

The hell was that?

Wait, I know that sound.

Look.

(sub whirring)

(mystical music)

- It's beautiful.

- It's a hell of a thing.

I wonder how long this has been going on.

- Forever.

- Wait a minute.

Drag.

- Excuse me?

- Do you think the bubble has a wake,

the drag wake from the ice?

It was able to haul us all the way down here.

Maybe...

Maybe a bubble could carry us back up.

- It didn't damage this sub the last time a bubble hit us.

It just shook us loose.

- And it might carry us all the way back up

like an elevator turning up the ocean,

giving us a free ride on the way.

- We'd have to position ourselves in just the right place

to make sure we catch the wake rather than get tossed aside.

- And if we get directly under one of the fallen ice blocks,

then get out of the way at the last minute,

we should be able to predict where it's gonna come up.

- We'll have to be high enough up that we have time

to get into position once the bubble forms.

- And less shelter.

You ready?

(water bubbling)

Here we go.

(suspenseful music)

(sub whirring)

(water explosions)

- There's one. But coming in close.

- We won't have time to randomize anything,

so let's hope we left your friends

with a good enough hangover.

Look up top and let me know how I'm doing.

- Forward.

Forward.

Okay. Left, left.

No, no, no, no. Back right

- Back to right or just back to right.

- Back to the right. Just right.

Just right.

Good. Got it.

Now can you mark the spot quickly?

- Got it.

- Good. Now get out of the way.

- Ooh.

(monster growling)

Shit.

- Decker the bubble.

- All right.

- We're never gonna hit it like this.

- Do you have any better ideas?

- You're dodging horizontally. Dodge vertically.

That way we won't miss the mark.

- Yeah.

(monster growling)

- Bubbles coming up.

Get ready.

Start in ascent so we're moving with it rather than against.

(system beeping)

- Okay, three, two. Now.

(suspenseful music)

(monster growling)

I think it's working.

(water bubbling)

(system beeping)

System's maintaining.

It's gonna be a tight turnaround.

We're coming up quick.

Decker?

Decker?

There's only going to be a split second

between when the bubbles pop

and when we smash into the surface ice.

- We'll have to turn my descent

so we don't crash into the top.

We'll sink that down like a stone.

- Can you do that? - I can try.

Here it comes.

Ah, you got eyes on it?

- It's all I've got eyes on.

- We have to downward thrust as soon as we're free

to avoid the ice.

Then upward thrust to try and balance this out.

- You can do it.

- Oh, thanks. Maybe.

- Three, two.

(suspenseful music)

(system beeping)

(sub whirring)

Decker.

(water bubbling)

(system beeping)

- Well...

We're back at the ice again.

- Never thought I'd be so happy to see the sun.

(soft music)

- And we're not far from the lander.

Signal beacon still live.

(system beeping)

(sub whirring)

Can you keep an eye on the downward feed?

Make sure we don't have any unwanted

company coming up for us.

- Coming up on the lander.

- Oh, damn it.

Okay.

I think if I can get

a small enough hole through that ice,

I can get a distressed call out to home.

Then we'll just have to wait here

without getting eaten long enough for help to arrive.

- Will they send help just for us?

- Oh, they will

when I tell them there's alien life on Titan.

We just need to watch the deep

and try not to draw any attention to ourselves.

No sonar, no engines. Minimum power consumption.

- How do we get a hole in the ice without the crane?

- That's a great question.

- Where are you going?

- To take stock.

See what we have to work with.

Nothing but blankets.

Though we'll probably need more

of these soon if we're conserving power.

Let's see what's this.

- What?

- The sleep pot, it's locked.

There could be something in here.

(metal scraping)

- Careful. We don't know what else can hear us up here.

(water bubbling)

(metal clattering)

- What are you doing? - Shh.

I'm telling you.

Against the ice creeks.

Even if something does hear it over there,

there's no rhythm.

(metal clattering)

(system beeping)

I don't understand.

Why didn't they wake up?

He's still alive.

Seems to be stable.

But why didn't it wake him?

- Could it have malfunctioned?

- I've never heard of that happening.

(system beeping)

I asked you if there was anyone else in these pods.

You said no.

- I didn't think there was.

Besides, it's the ship that's supposed to wake the crew.

How was I supposed to know?

- Okay.

Okay.

This doesn't change the fact that we still need

to get a message out,

and if we're lucky,

the drill didn't get pulled down with the crane.

It could still be there.

Engaging surface drill.

Maybe.

Clear.

Without the crane, we can't get out.

But the antenna should be able

to reach high enough to clear the ice.

Extending antenna now.

(machine whirring)

Moment of truth.

(system beeping)

Yes.

Mission control.

This is operator Decker

and science officer Mira,

along with an unwoken crew member, still unconscious.

Now I don't know if the system failed to wake him,

but our subsurface lander is damaged

and we're trapped in the water.

We got a stable position for now,

but the water is not a safe position.

Now I'm transmitting our ship logs. You'll see what I mean.

Needless to say, you'll want to send help ASAP.

Please advise.

Decker out.

Attaching transmitting log.

Message sent.

Now we wait.

- We've had a long day. Why don't you get some rest?

I'll keep first watch

and make sure our friends don't come back.

- I'll stay.

I'll take first watch.

You get some rest.

- Okay, but whenever you wanna turn in, let me know.

You've had a bigger day than I have.

(brooding music)

(water bubbling)

(system beeping)

(metal cracking)

(suspenseful music)

(water bubbling)

(suspenseful music continues)

- Whoa.

- [Robot] Message received.

Help on way, delayed by surface storms on Titan.

Five days delay at least. Must hold location.

- Five days?

- [Robot] Confirm crew manifest.

There are only two aboard sub. You and science officer Shen.

There is no Mira.

(suspenseful music)

- I thought it was my turn to take watch.

You need to rest.

- I'm fine.

I just...

Who are you?

You are not the science officer.

- Not quite. At least not in the way you expected.

- How much of this is real?

Am I awake?

Am I even on Titan?

- Yes.

- And who are you and where are you from?

- I'm from here, Decker.

I was sent to observe you

just like you were sent to observe us.

I am a science officer in a way.

Taking a rational look at the changing world around us all.

- Are there more of you?

- The galaxy is an ocean, Decker,

and we've been watching you since you first sent waves

rippling across space.

Those first simple ships that turned to many,

those waves have splashed onto many shores,

reached many listening ears.

- Are you hostile? - Are you?

Space is nothing more than a less dense medium.

Your ships send out ripples

and trails just like the sub,

leading anyone or anything right back to it.

Like an infant in the water,

you skitter across the surface

unaware of what else is out there,

what else is watching from beneath.

You jeopardize us all.

- You didn't answer my question.

- You didn't answer ours.

Humanity seems capable of good and bad,

wisdom and stupidity.

I was sent to observe more closely.

Settle that debate.

- What have you seen? - Wisdom and stupidity.

- I've kept us alive, haven't I?

- With some help.

- So what happens now?

- I can guarantee that if you wait here for help,

you'll never make it home.

The only way home for you is down.

- Down?

- The galaxy is an ocean and the ocean is a galaxy.

I will help you get home.

But you first must prove you are worthy of help.

- How? - Trusting me.

The only way home is down.

You know what's up there.

- I know what's down there.

- No, you don't.

Let go.

(mellow music)

(system beeping)

(sub whirring)

(mellow music continues)

- Well, at least that's that.

- You don't need that.

Now, go over the ledge.

- Down?

Down there?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. The sub can't hold.

- [Mira] It will.

- But that thing... It won't.

(sub whirring)

(water bubbling)

(system beeping)

(suspenseful music)

(monster growling)

(sub whirring)

(system pinging)

- It won't last for long. - It doesn't need to.

(sub whirring)

(mystical music)

- If I didn't see it, I would never believe it.

- I know.

(mystical music)

- Was this...

Was this all a test?

- Not all of it.

We needed to see what you were capable of,

how you react to stress,

what you could or wouldn't do.

There's a reason life here looks so similar to your home.

(upbeat music)

- Because the galaxy is an option.

- Just right.

Now...

(upbeat music)

It's time to swim.

(upbeat music continues)

(mystical music)

(waves crashing)

(water bubbling)

(soft music)

(music continues)
