1
00:00:10,500 --> 00:00:14,398
Very exciting. No one has ever reached
the epicenter of an undersea earthquake...

2
00:00:14,467 --> 00:00:17,591
<i>less than an hour after it's
happened, let alone a 9.2.</i>

3
00:00:17,766 --> 00:00:20,288
Instant creation
of a 1,500 foot cliff...

4
00:00:20,366 --> 00:00:23,127
that stretches 200 miles.
This is gonna be wild.

5
00:00:24,865 --> 00:00:28,195
WSKR on the west flank malfunctioned
and just crashed into the bottom, sir.

6
00:00:28,265 --> 00:00:31,095
<i>That's the second one, Mr.
Ortiz, in almost the same place.</i>

7
00:00:31,165 --> 00:00:32,222
<i>I can't explain it, Commander.</i>

8
00:00:32,298 --> 00:00:34,491
Well, adjust course. I want
to take a look at this wall.

9
00:00:34,565 --> 00:00:36,621
Come starboard eight degrees,
Mr. Shan?

10
00:00:37,031 --> 00:00:38,894
Some kind of a headache,
sir.

11
00:00:38,964 --> 00:00:40,623
<i>I'm having trouble focusing.</i>

12
00:00:40,764 --> 00:00:42,730
Mr. Rader,
take his position.

13
00:00:43,697 --> 00:00:46,890
<i>This is the fifth headache that's been
reported, since we've been down here.</i>

14
00:00:46,963 --> 00:00:47,951
<i>Rock.</i>

15
00:00:48,063 --> 00:00:51,153
<i>Water.
Captain. He's doing it again.</i>

16
00:00:51,996 --> 00:00:53,859
<i>Fire, cloud...</i>

17
00:00:54,363 --> 00:00:56,329
<i>unit, center.</i>

18
00:00:56,396 --> 00:00:57,656
What is it, my friend?

19
00:00:57,729 --> 00:00:59,854
<i>Fast, voice, hurt.</i>

20
00:00:59,929 --> 00:01:02,860
<i>He's hearing things. We have
no idea what he's talking about.</i>

21
00:01:02,928 --> 00:01:05,360
<i>O'Neill. I'm at a loss
to explain it, Captain.</i>

22
00:01:05,428 --> 00:01:07,950
<i>Sensors show a sound out
there, but I can't find it.</i>

23
00:01:08,028 --> 00:01:10,653
High frequency, well out of
our acoustical parameters.

24
00:01:10,728 --> 00:01:12,387
Is it something
he could hear?

25
00:01:12,528 --> 00:01:15,358
<i>Technically, no.
It's out of his range, too.</i>

26
00:01:15,427 --> 00:01:18,586
<i>Declination, luminescence...</i>

27
00:01:18,693 --> 00:01:20,352
<i>ecliptic.</i>

28
00:01:20,426 --> 00:01:22,119
Do you understand this?

29
00:01:22,226 --> 00:01:25,623
<i>People words.
Not dolphin.</i>

30
00:01:26,692 --> 00:01:29,351
I want this sound traced,
gentlemen. I want to know what it is.

31
00:01:29,425 --> 00:01:30,413
Aye, sir.

32
00:01:30,926 --> 00:01:32,152
Captain.

33
00:01:43,258 --> 00:01:46,418
<i>You'd better warn the crew,
we may be here for some time.</i>

34
00:01:47,924 --> 00:01:50,981
These sedimentation layers
are so clearly marked.

35
00:01:51,057 --> 00:01:53,614
<i>The timeline is as precise as
I've ever seen it.</i>

36
00:01:53,690 --> 00:01:55,019
What are we looking at?

37
00:01:55,590 --> 00:01:58,612
This layer used to be
the bottom of the ocean...

38
00:01:58,823 --> 00:02:01,584
about 900,000 years ago.
Wow.

39
00:02:01,689 --> 00:02:04,280
<i>Captain, aftershock coming.
It's a big one.</i>

40
00:02:04,356 --> 00:02:07,049
Sound collision. Head us
into the epicenter. Nose down.

41
00:02:07,122 --> 00:02:10,088
This is Cmdr. Ford. Brace
for shock wave, bow to stern.

42
00:02:10,255 --> 00:02:14,017
<i>Closing all water tights.
All hands brace for collision.</i>

43
00:03:15,649 --> 00:03:18,080
<i>This is the coolest thing
I've ever seen.</i>

44
00:03:18,748 --> 00:03:20,509
Isolate this picture.

45
00:03:20,948 --> 00:03:23,311
No one sees this
except the Bridge.

46
00:03:23,381 --> 00:03:24,369
<i>Done.</i>

47
00:03:24,548 --> 00:03:27,537
That looks like
some kind of a ship?

48
00:03:27,881 --> 00:03:29,370
A spaceship?

49
00:03:30,281 --> 00:03:31,644
No such thing.

50
00:03:31,847 --> 00:03:33,176
There is now.

51
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:37,173
<i>Captain, if what you said about
the age of that rock is true...</i>

52
00:03:37,247 --> 00:03:40,042
That ship must be
a million years old.

53
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,073
Or more.

54
00:03:48,945 --> 00:03:50,638
<i>The 21st century.</i>

55
00:03:50,712 --> 00:03:53,769
<i>Mankind has colonized the last
unexplored region on Earth...</i>

56
00:03:53,845 --> 00:03:54,833
<i>the ocean.</i>

57
00:03:54,911 --> 00:03:58,673
<i>As captain of the seaQuest and
its crew, we are its guardians.</i>

58
00:03:58,744 --> 00:04:01,801
<i>For beneath the surface
lies the future.</i>

59
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,737
<i>What's your take, Captain?</i>

60
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,963
<i>We're convinced now that the sounds
coming from this alien ship...</i>

61
00:04:55,038 --> 00:04:56,698
are giving the crew headaches.

62
00:04:56,938 --> 00:04:58,904
<i>And you don't
consider that a threat?</i>

63
00:04:59,272 --> 00:05:01,067
What? Migraines?

64
00:05:01,139 --> 00:05:03,627
<i>Aren't you being a little
pie-in-the-sky, Bridger?</i>

65
00:05:03,805 --> 00:05:07,669
<i>And that noise is coming from an
alien ship that you know nothing about.</i>

66
00:05:08,404 --> 00:05:10,165
<i>That's true, General.</i>

67
00:05:10,304 --> 00:05:14,201
On the other hand, it has been entombed
in this rock for over a million years.

68
00:05:14,270 --> 00:05:16,600
<i>Well, I still expect you
to follow procedures.</i>

69
00:05:16,670 --> 00:05:18,635
<i>We didn't spend millions
developing...</i>

70
00:05:18,703 --> 00:05:21,863
<i>an alien-encounter program so
you could make it up as you go.</i>

71
00:05:22,302 --> 00:05:23,495
<i>And another thing.</i>

72
00:05:24,336 --> 00:05:27,234
<i>I want that kid
Lucas Wolenczak off the boat.</i>

73
00:05:27,302 --> 00:05:28,325
Why?

74
00:05:28,402 --> 00:05:30,799
<i>He doesn't have the necessary
security clearances.</i>

75
00:05:31,035 --> 00:05:32,058
I need him.

76
00:05:32,668 --> 00:05:37,066
<i>I know this is an amazing discovery
and everyone wants to be part of it...</i>

77
00:05:37,602 --> 00:05:38,828
<i>but that's not enough.</i>

78
00:05:39,068 --> 00:05:43,796
You see, Darwin somehow is picking
out words from this alien signal.

79
00:05:44,501 --> 00:05:46,763
And Lucas is my vocal link
to Darwin.

80
00:05:46,967 --> 00:05:49,195
<i>He plays you like a drum,
Captain.</i>

81
00:05:49,267 --> 00:05:50,926
<i>Just once, I'd like you to...</i>

82
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,091
<i>recognize my authority
and follow orders.</i>

83
00:05:54,233 --> 00:05:56,358
<i>When I get back,
we'll have lunch.</i>

84
00:05:57,700 --> 00:05:59,290
Okay, Chief,
this is the last of them.

85
00:05:59,366 --> 00:06:03,093
<i>Shuttle MR-3 is set
to launch in 15 minutes.</i>

86
00:06:03,166 --> 00:06:06,154
<i>Shuttle MR-3 is set
to launch in 15 minutes.</i>

87
00:06:06,232 --> 00:06:10,255
Hey, Lucas. What happened up there on
the Bridge? Why are we being off-loaded?

88
00:06:11,664 --> 00:06:14,721
<i>I can't tell you, Sheppard.
It was something.</i>

89
00:06:14,998 --> 00:06:18,724
<i>What, are you getting in line
with us? I'm not sure yet.</i>

90
00:06:22,630 --> 00:06:23,789
Good luck.

91
00:06:23,897 --> 00:06:25,226
<i>All science personnel...</i>

92
00:06:25,296 --> 00:06:27,194
Everything is all set, sir.
Okay.

93
00:06:28,663 --> 00:06:32,754
<i>All science personnel check in with
the deck officer before departure.</i>

94
00:06:32,829 --> 00:06:36,022
<i>Surface fleet's in position, sir. When
this launch leaves, we'll be down to...</i>

95
00:06:36,095 --> 00:06:38,890
thirty-two military personnel
and 26 science.

96
00:06:38,962 --> 00:06:39,985
Anything else?

97
00:06:41,828 --> 00:06:43,316
No, sir.
Carry on.

98
00:06:43,762 --> 00:06:47,250
Set up the laser saw and the oxygen
compressors in the launch MR-5.

99
00:06:47,328 --> 00:06:51,454
<i>And let's get all of these hand held scanners
down to the science lab for calibration.</i>

100
00:06:51,694 --> 00:06:55,353
<i>We've logged on board everything you
asked for, Cap. Ready to get under way.</i>

101
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,822
Environmental suits?
Yes, sir. Right here.

102
00:06:58,727 --> 00:07:01,454
All external damage has been
repaired, sir. Thank you.

103
00:07:01,860 --> 00:07:04,883
<i>Lt. Freebur,
report to docking bay two.</i>

104
00:07:05,292 --> 00:07:08,520
<i>Lt. Freebur,
report to docking bay two.</i>

105
00:07:08,593 --> 00:07:09,616
Listen...

106
00:07:10,959 --> 00:07:13,754
<i>do you think that you
"play me like a drum"?</i>

107
00:07:16,125 --> 00:07:18,182
Could I consult my lawyer?

108
00:07:20,024 --> 00:07:21,614
You can stay.
All right!

109
00:07:21,691 --> 00:07:23,987
<i>Get with O'Neill
on that signal.</i>

110
00:07:36,623 --> 00:07:39,589
Cmdr. Keller, welcome aboard.
Glad to be back, Commander.

111
00:07:40,655 --> 00:07:42,212
Scott, how are you?
Nathan.

112
00:07:43,223 --> 00:07:46,086
General Thomas is hemorrhaging
up on the aircraft carrier.

113
00:07:46,255 --> 00:07:48,778
<i>How'd you keep his alpha
commandos off this mission?</i>

114
00:07:48,921 --> 00:07:52,478
<i>I said a welcome wagon with a gun
doesn't make a very good first impression.</i>

115
00:07:54,554 --> 00:07:56,986
What if something out there
is still alive?

116
00:07:58,887 --> 00:08:01,547
<i>Then we're the luckiest
sailors in history.</i>

117
00:08:01,620 --> 00:08:03,348
What if they attack us?

118
00:08:03,687 --> 00:08:05,085
Every uniform thinks alike.

119
00:08:05,154 --> 00:08:06,278
Well, you wear one.

120
00:08:06,353 --> 00:08:08,978
Yeah, for exploration.
Not for conquest.

121
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,279
Captain, I have to raise
the possibility.

122
00:08:12,519 --> 00:08:15,781
Listen, think it through,
Commander.

123
00:08:16,586 --> 00:08:19,074
If these extraterrestrials
applied the same technology...

124
00:08:19,152 --> 00:08:21,209
it took for them
to get here to war...

125
00:08:21,452 --> 00:08:23,281
<i>we're toast.
No matter what we do.</i>

126
00:08:23,685 --> 00:08:27,742
Gentlemen, we prepare for the
worst, hope for the best, right?

127
00:08:31,284 --> 00:08:32,681
<i>I'll make a deal with you.</i>

128
00:08:32,751 --> 00:08:35,945
<i>You don't shoot anything till
I've had a chance to say hello.</i>

129
00:08:36,150 --> 00:08:38,048
<i>All sea craft departures...</i>

130
00:08:38,117 --> 00:08:40,515
<i>must have
code four authorization.</i>

131
00:08:42,217 --> 00:08:43,944
<i>O'Neill?</i>

132
00:08:44,382 --> 00:08:47,348
Painkiller for the headaches.
Come on, not even a needle.

133
00:08:47,616 --> 00:08:49,877
<i>I don't need it,
I'm leaving on the launch.</i>

134
00:08:50,316 --> 00:08:52,941
<i>You're not
trying for the expedition?</i>

135
00:08:53,849 --> 00:08:54,940
Tim?

136
00:08:58,715 --> 00:09:01,203
Dr. Westphalen, can I
ask you a question? Sure.

137
00:09:02,647 --> 00:09:03,943
Do you believe in God?

138
00:09:06,115 --> 00:09:07,478
Sometimes.

139
00:09:07,848 --> 00:09:10,473
<i>Well, if we're created
in God's image...</i>

140
00:09:10,681 --> 00:09:13,272
then who created intelligent
life on other planets?

141
00:09:13,913 --> 00:09:15,004
God.

142
00:09:16,180 --> 00:09:19,543
I was always taught to believe
that we were the whole deal.

143
00:09:20,546 --> 00:09:22,602
That life topped-out
with man.

144
00:09:23,113 --> 00:09:26,636
<i>And now, it's like,
my beliefs are unraveling.</i>

145
00:09:27,245 --> 00:09:29,438
<i>No, they're not, Tim.
Come on.</i>

146
00:09:30,045 --> 00:09:34,000
You believe in family,
friends, strong morality, yes?

147
00:09:35,478 --> 00:09:37,967
Yes, well nothing out there
invalidates those.

148
00:09:39,711 --> 00:09:41,609
When I was growing up...

149
00:09:41,710 --> 00:09:44,142
I always felt like a traitor
as a kid in church.

150
00:09:45,543 --> 00:09:47,736
<i>Because I secretly hoped
we weren't alone.</i>

151
00:09:48,010 --> 00:09:50,804
<i>Well, don't feel guilty
for getting your wish.</i>

152
00:09:52,943 --> 00:09:55,273
But you have to
make your own decision.

153
00:10:03,175 --> 00:10:05,902
<i>I've never run
from anything in my life.</i>

154
00:10:10,041 --> 00:10:12,666
<i>Applying Earth's aerodynamic
principles, I'm taking a wild guess...</i>

155
00:10:12,741 --> 00:10:15,673
that this is how the alien craft would
look like, with the rock cut away.

156
00:10:18,407 --> 00:10:20,464
How the hell did they move
a ship that big through space?

157
00:10:20,540 --> 00:10:22,937
<i>That's just one of a thousand
questions I want answers to.</i>

158
00:10:23,173 --> 00:10:25,866
<i>She's over a mile long. How did
they get it up to light speed?</i>

159
00:10:26,073 --> 00:10:27,130
Wrong concept.

160
00:10:27,206 --> 00:10:29,536
Even if it went
a million times light speed...

161
00:10:29,606 --> 00:10:31,367
most galaxies
would be out of reach.

162
00:10:31,439 --> 00:10:33,132
<i>We've theorized
curved space loops...</i>

163
00:10:33,206 --> 00:10:35,172
and inter-dimensional
wormholes.

164
00:10:35,239 --> 00:10:37,568
Bottom line, Nathan: I want
to see their technology.

165
00:10:38,039 --> 00:10:39,902
I want to see
inside that cockpit.

166
00:10:42,871 --> 00:10:45,393
Can you imagine
if I got to go over there?

167
00:10:45,471 --> 00:10:48,926
<i>You'd have to promise not to hug
them. May not be part of their culture.</i>

168
00:10:49,237 --> 00:10:52,067
<i>I've spent my whole life believing
in nothing but the unbelievable.</i>

169
00:10:52,137 --> 00:10:53,830
I mean,
what do they look like?

170
00:10:55,104 --> 00:10:56,694
Did they crash here
by accident?

171
00:10:56,770 --> 00:10:59,167
Where are they from?
Are there others coming?

172
00:11:01,303 --> 00:11:02,667
I have to know.

173
00:11:08,469 --> 00:11:11,128
Would you mind if I submitted
your name to the Captain?

174
00:11:16,701 --> 00:11:19,065
All right, people,
here we go.

175
00:11:20,868 --> 00:11:21,855
Lieutenant?

176
00:11:22,334 --> 00:11:24,266
Lucas and I have isolated
the alien signal.

177
00:11:24,334 --> 00:11:26,629
<i>It's an overlapping pulse
in a high microwave frequency.</i>

178
00:11:26,700 --> 00:11:29,165
<i>But it's gonna take
a lot of math to decipher it.</i>

179
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,127
Ortiz, Hitchcock,
this is where you come in.

180
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,223
I want you to go in and bend
and twist that signal...

181
00:11:33,300 --> 00:11:34,822
<i>see if there's any rhyme
or reason for it.</i>

182
00:11:34,899 --> 00:11:35,922
Doctor?

183
00:11:36,033 --> 00:11:37,521
<i>Let's not forget
what we're dealing with.</i>

184
00:11:37,599 --> 00:11:41,156
<i>We don't want to bring back an exotic
virus. We've got enough of our own, I think.</i>

185
00:11:41,232 --> 00:11:44,164
The first sign of pain,
headache medicine is available...

186
00:11:44,232 --> 00:11:46,221
at stations
all around the boat.

187
00:11:47,498 --> 00:11:50,020
The boarding party
will consist of the following:

188
00:11:50,531 --> 00:11:54,258
Chief Crocker will assist Commander
Keller and provide security.

189
00:11:54,398 --> 00:11:55,795
Me?

190
00:11:56,430 --> 00:11:59,760
<i>Lieutenant O'Neill, you will continue
to track down the source of the signal...</i>

191
00:11:59,831 --> 00:12:03,263
and standby to be interpreter
if necessary. Aye, sir.

192
00:12:03,696 --> 00:12:06,890
Filling out the rest of the team and
photographing the expedition will be...

193
00:12:06,963 --> 00:12:08,156
Lt. Krieg.

194
00:12:09,030 --> 00:12:11,495
For the rest of you who
volunteered, thank you very much.

195
00:12:11,563 --> 00:12:14,188
<i>All right people, that's it.
Let's get back to work.</i>

196
00:12:16,895 --> 00:12:20,452
Sir, besides turning the camera on
and off, what do I bring to the party?

197
00:12:21,028 --> 00:12:24,721
Enthusiasm, Lieutenant,
enthusiasm. Yes, sir.

198
00:12:25,627 --> 00:12:28,491
<i>I'd like to go.
Oh, I bet you would.</i>

199
00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,155
<i>On the other hand, I'm pretty
grateful just to be here.</i>

200
00:12:33,394 --> 00:12:35,882
<i>Uh-huh. We'll watch it here
together.</i>

201
00:12:42,359 --> 00:12:44,950
<i>Captain, we're approaching
the alien ship.</i>

202
00:12:52,192 --> 00:12:56,124
You okay, Chief?
Give me a break, will you.

203
00:12:58,225 --> 00:13:03,122
<i>Commander, we're going to try for a flush
fit on that smooth section below the fin.</i>

204
00:13:15,856 --> 00:13:17,049
Clear.

205
00:13:23,822 --> 00:13:26,220
<i>Air seal's positive.
The second seal.</i>

206
00:13:48,187 --> 00:13:49,652
Welcome to Earth.

207
00:13:51,419 --> 00:13:54,146
Scan the hull for Dr.
Westphalen. Aye, sir.

208
00:13:56,652 --> 00:13:58,880
<i>seaQuest, you reading visual?</i>

209
00:13:58,985 --> 00:14:01,314
<i>Loud and clear, Ben.
Great.</i>

210
00:14:02,618 --> 00:14:05,015
<i>These little sparkles
look like sand.</i>

211
00:14:05,085 --> 00:14:06,415
<i>Silicon, Lieutenant.</i>

212
00:14:06,485 --> 00:14:08,575
<i>One of the most prevalent
substances in the universe.</i>

213
00:14:08,651 --> 00:14:10,617
<i>Talk about your common ground.</i>

214
00:14:10,684 --> 00:14:15,309
<i>Contaminant reading: zero.
Looks clear, Commander.</i>

215
00:14:16,084 --> 00:14:18,845
<i>What do you think, Nathan?
It's your call, Scott.</i>

216
00:14:21,116 --> 00:14:22,582
<i>Let's open her up, Chief.</i>

217
00:14:26,916 --> 00:14:29,643
Alien-encounter program
official record.

218
00:14:30,615 --> 00:14:34,411
One million years imprisoned in
rock makes finding life improbable.

219
00:14:35,449 --> 00:14:38,744
Yet, the existence of this
ship is spectacular proof...

220
00:14:39,015 --> 00:14:40,208
that we are not...

221
00:14:41,748 --> 00:14:42,771
alone.

222
00:15:09,845 --> 00:15:12,174
<i>This is a section
of the ship's skin.</i>

223
00:15:12,244 --> 00:15:14,869
<i>They've found a way
to organize silicon.</i>

224
00:15:15,712 --> 00:15:19,871
Imagine being able to grow crystals
into any shape you want them.

225
00:15:20,044 --> 00:15:22,771
Do you have any guesses about
these haphazard ones?

226
00:15:23,477 --> 00:15:27,102
It could be heat shields, like
the ones we use on our spacecraft.

227
00:15:27,177 --> 00:15:28,165
Hmm.

228
00:15:28,310 --> 00:15:30,003
<i>Almost got it.</i>

229
00:15:35,476 --> 00:15:36,907
<i>We're all through, Commander.</i>

230
00:15:36,975 --> 00:15:39,237
<i>Just take
an atmosphere reading.</i>

231
00:15:41,142 --> 00:15:45,301
Heavy silicon compounds. Large
concentrations of xenon and argon.

232
00:15:46,275 --> 00:15:49,968
Traces carbon, helium,
parts per million asbestos.

233
00:15:50,507 --> 00:15:53,439
<i>Not breathable, but it's not
gonna corrode our suits, either.</i>

234
00:15:53,908 --> 00:15:55,533
Do you still want
to go inside?

235
00:15:57,507 --> 00:15:58,699
<i>Try and stop me.</i>

236
00:16:11,605 --> 00:16:14,503
<i>Aren't I supposed to say
something for all mankind, here?</i>

237
00:16:14,839 --> 00:16:17,895
<i>Something...
Something important?</i>

238
00:16:18,238 --> 00:16:19,464
What comes to mind?

239
00:16:20,538 --> 00:16:21,936
This is big...

240
00:16:22,604 --> 00:16:23,592
dark.

241
00:16:24,471 --> 00:16:26,494
And I am very happy
to be here.

242
00:16:27,870 --> 00:16:30,029
<i>It's not very poetic,
but it'll do fine.</i>

243
00:16:33,704 --> 00:16:36,534
Chief, somebody
has to stay here...

244
00:16:36,704 --> 00:16:39,329
attach a permanent hatch here,
carrying a weapon.

245
00:16:39,736 --> 00:16:41,565
<i>I'd prefer you stayed
on the launch.</i>

246
00:16:42,903 --> 00:16:45,425
<i>That's a good idea, Commander.</i>

247
00:16:48,035 --> 00:16:49,898
Give me a radar map
of what this place looks like.

248
00:16:49,968 --> 00:16:50,956
Aye, sir.

249
00:16:54,268 --> 00:16:56,359
It looks like
a network of pipes...

250
00:16:56,435 --> 00:16:58,900
and conduit
connecting the systems.

251
00:16:59,500 --> 00:17:03,024
The compartments all funnel back
like an oil tanker or a cargo ship.

252
00:17:03,134 --> 00:17:04,861
Yeah, but what kind of cargo?

253
00:17:04,966 --> 00:17:07,796
Maybe they came here to collect
zoo specimens, dinosaurs.

254
00:17:07,866 --> 00:17:09,593
<i>Maybe they didn't come here
to collect anything.</i>

255
00:17:09,666 --> 00:17:11,996
Maybe they brought life.

256
00:17:12,067 --> 00:17:14,191
The doors to those
compartments are much...

257
00:17:14,266 --> 00:17:16,255
too small for much of anything
to fit through.

258
00:17:16,332 --> 00:17:17,423
Except liquid.

259
00:17:17,499 --> 00:17:21,295
This could be 99%% fuel tank
and 1%% cockpit.

260
00:17:21,432 --> 00:17:25,159
<i>Maybe whoever shot this off
didn't expect it to come back.</i>

261
00:17:25,231 --> 00:17:27,890
One-way ticket
to a new world.

262
00:17:27,964 --> 00:17:30,521
<i>Crashing into the ocean
wasn't what they had in mind.</i>

263
00:17:30,597 --> 00:17:34,791
Think of the courage it took to ride this
rocket away from home for the last time.

264
00:17:35,664 --> 00:17:36,856
<i>Nathan...</i>

265
00:17:36,930 --> 00:17:39,862
<i>we're going to detour into
one of the side compartments.</i>

266
00:17:40,197 --> 00:17:41,822
Keep in touch, guys.

267
00:17:42,363 --> 00:17:43,454
<i>Right.</i>

268
00:17:45,029 --> 00:17:46,723
<i>Let's move out.</i>

269
00:17:49,696 --> 00:17:51,958
Asimov, Bradbury, Clarke.

270
00:17:52,829 --> 00:17:56,454
<i>A lifetime with these guys and I'm
still not sure if I'm ready for this.</i>

271
00:17:58,362 --> 00:18:01,521
Stay close. Visual contact
in single file.

272
00:18:01,895 --> 00:18:05,452
<i>I want continual readouts, and don't
touch anything you don't have to.</i>

273
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,016
This is unbelievable.

274
00:18:16,959 --> 00:18:18,516
What is this place?

275
00:18:20,559 --> 00:18:24,685
<i>For the first time in my career,
Lieutenant, I don't have a clue.</i>

276
00:18:25,459 --> 00:18:27,822
<i>If you made this up,
they wouldn't believe it.</i>

277
00:18:31,392 --> 00:18:35,323
That substance that Keller has
could be fuel residue.

278
00:18:35,391 --> 00:18:38,516
My people will have it on the
screen by the time we get to C-Deck.

279
00:18:39,391 --> 00:18:42,152
Pensive?
Reflective.

280
00:18:42,457 --> 00:18:46,355
Captain reflective, scientist
reflective or explorer reflective?

281
00:18:46,424 --> 00:18:48,583
Little boy reflective.

282
00:18:53,489 --> 00:18:57,182
<i>It's just our nature not to
want to be alone in the universe.</i>

283
00:18:58,690 --> 00:19:01,780
Do you think oceanography
will be important after today?

284
00:19:01,855 --> 00:19:02,946
Or geology?

285
00:19:03,488 --> 00:19:06,579
<i>Funny how everything can
change in an instant, isn't it?</i>

286
00:19:07,221 --> 00:19:10,415
<i>You know who's not fazed
one iota by any of this?</i>

287
00:19:10,921 --> 00:19:11,944
Lucas?

288
00:19:13,821 --> 00:19:16,446
His generation
grew up expecting this.

289
00:19:16,521 --> 00:19:18,680
<i>It's not a revelation,
it's a confirmation.</i>

290
00:19:18,754 --> 00:19:20,310
Maybe we can learn from that.

291
00:19:20,853 --> 00:19:23,217
Roll with it, dude.
Yeah.

292
00:19:25,653 --> 00:19:28,278
Lieutenant, which way
is the source of the signal?

293
00:19:28,353 --> 00:19:31,012
Last I had it, that way.

294
00:19:38,552 --> 00:19:40,313
<i>What's the matter?</i>

295
00:19:40,385 --> 00:19:43,646
Remember when you were a kid, and
your church would have those...

296
00:19:43,718 --> 00:19:45,741
haunted house fundraisers
at Halloween?

297
00:19:46,251 --> 00:19:49,342
Yeah, I loved those things.

298
00:19:51,017 --> 00:19:52,744
Scared me to death.

299
00:20:01,649 --> 00:20:02,637
Sir?

300
00:20:04,083 --> 00:20:07,105
<i>I'm picking up a strange
vibration from the alien craft.</i>

301
00:20:12,049 --> 00:20:15,242
<i>Scott, abort the mission. What
do you mean, "abort the mission"?</i>

302
00:20:15,615 --> 00:20:16,842
Scott, now.

303
00:20:16,915 --> 00:20:19,403
<i>We're making progress
without any obstacles.</i>

304
00:20:19,481 --> 00:20:21,742
Commander, the alien molecules
are vibrating...

305
00:20:21,814 --> 00:20:23,939
doubling in intensity
every fifth of a second.

306
00:20:24,014 --> 00:20:27,377
The crystalline structure that makes
up the ship is becoming unstable.

307
00:20:27,547 --> 00:20:30,342
<i>You're talking implosion.
Very possible.</i>

308
00:20:30,614 --> 00:20:32,170
Can you tell
when it started?

309
00:20:32,247 --> 00:20:35,474
<i>Judging from our acoustical data, I'd
say the moment we cut into her hull.</i>

310
00:20:35,546 --> 00:20:37,569
A self-destruct mechanism?

311
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:39,771
Maybe.

312
00:20:41,179 --> 00:20:44,611
<i>Suppose they didn't want their
technology to fall into the wrong hands?</i>

313
00:20:44,879 --> 00:20:45,936
Oh.

314
00:20:46,012 --> 00:20:47,534
You better update the General.

315
00:20:47,612 --> 00:20:50,134
<i>He'll think of this as some
kind of a secret weapon.</i>

316
00:20:52,445 --> 00:20:53,933
Move it, Scott.

317
00:20:54,211 --> 00:20:57,506
<i>I'm coming back here, Nathan.
I'm gonna see their cockpit.</i>

318
00:20:57,711 --> 00:21:00,541
<i>Let's go. Let's retrace
our path out of here.</i>

319
00:21:03,610 --> 00:21:06,804
<i>As soon as your med team okays
them aboard, we're out of here.</i>

320
00:21:08,976 --> 00:21:12,806
Which way from here? Give
me a readout. Vectoring.

321
00:21:17,976 --> 00:21:19,271
This way.

322
00:21:21,509 --> 00:21:23,633
<i>No, Ben.
You're all turned around.</i>

323
00:21:26,207 --> 00:21:27,673
Maybe everything is.

324
00:21:48,205 --> 00:21:49,728
What the hell happened?

325
00:21:49,839 --> 00:21:51,134
Cmdr. Keller?

326
00:21:51,205 --> 00:21:53,433
<i>There's no incoming signal.</i>

327
00:21:53,505 --> 00:21:56,300
<i>I'm not showing anything.
Get them back on line.</i>

328
00:22:37,601 --> 00:22:39,760
Lieutenant,
put the camera down.

329
00:22:39,933 --> 00:22:42,058
<i>Why, I'm getting
some great stuff here.</i>

330
00:22:42,134 --> 00:22:44,327
<i>Put it down.
He thinks you've got a weapon.</i>

331
00:22:46,500 --> 00:22:47,761
Oh.

332
00:23:01,766 --> 00:23:03,061
Hello.

333
00:23:07,331 --> 00:23:09,797
On behalf of all our people,
I welcome you.

334
00:23:36,595 --> 00:23:39,322
<i>You are not authorized
to risk more lives...</i>

335
00:23:39,395 --> 00:23:41,759
<i>for your
own scientific curiosity.</i>

336
00:23:41,894 --> 00:23:45,587
<i>I want you to destroy whatever's over
there while there's still a chance.</i>

337
00:23:47,061 --> 00:23:48,424
<i>I can't do that.</i>

338
00:23:48,494 --> 00:23:50,722
<i>That is a direct order,
Captain.</i>

339
00:23:51,027 --> 00:23:52,459
<i>It's one I can't follow.</i>

340
00:23:52,793 --> 00:23:54,884
<i>Then you're
relieved of command.</i>

341
00:23:55,060 --> 00:23:57,651
<i>Fine, I'll wait
for your arrival.</i>

342
00:24:01,192 --> 00:24:02,556
Get me Crocker.

343
00:24:03,493 --> 00:24:06,391
<i>Have you heard anything more
from Cmdr. Keller, chief?</i>

344
00:24:06,458 --> 00:24:08,617
<i>Nothing, Cap.
I haven't heard a word.</i>

345
00:24:08,692 --> 00:24:12,681
<i>But we've lost contact. I think you'd
better go in and get them, Chief.</i>

346
00:24:12,891 --> 00:24:14,221
Aye, sir.

347
00:24:15,492 --> 00:24:20,321
<i>Well, "Join the Navy, see
the world", and then some.</i>

348
00:24:25,090 --> 00:24:26,283
Captain?

349
00:24:28,157 --> 00:24:29,349
<i>seaQuest?</i>

350
00:24:31,089 --> 00:24:33,317
Anybody still reading me?

351
00:24:35,756 --> 00:24:38,449
<i>Yo, put that thing down.
I don't wanna have to fire...</i>

352
00:24:45,621 --> 00:24:48,144
I assume that you know
where we are.

353
00:24:48,421 --> 00:24:52,319
Earth, the outer edge
of the Orion arm...

354
00:24:53,221 --> 00:24:56,449
thirty thousand light-years from
the center of the Milky Way galaxy.

355
00:25:10,519 --> 00:25:14,474
<i>Coma Berenices?
That's your constellation.</i>

356
00:25:16,852 --> 00:25:18,943
<i>Something's happening here.</i>

357
00:25:22,284 --> 00:25:24,079
Did we do something wrong?

358
00:25:33,883 --> 00:25:35,406
<i>Don't do this, guys.</i>

359
00:25:36,516 --> 00:25:37,914
Oh, God.

360
00:25:42,449 --> 00:25:44,210
Any report, Commander?

361
00:25:44,282 --> 00:25:47,339
<i>No contact with the boarding party.
Our sensors aren't penetrating.</i>

362
00:25:47,416 --> 00:25:49,779
Captain, the launch
is returning.

363
00:25:50,016 --> 00:25:51,106
Thank God.

364
00:25:51,181 --> 00:25:52,841
<i>seaQuest to launch MR-5.</i>

365
00:25:58,414 --> 00:26:00,642
Medical and security
to launch bay.

366
00:26:08,247 --> 00:26:12,178
<i>Shuttle MR-5 has arrived.
Docking bay three.</i>

367
00:26:12,279 --> 00:26:15,177
<i>Shuttle MR-5 has arrived.
Docking bay three.</i>

368
00:26:15,246 --> 00:26:17,007
Open the hatch.
Yes, sir.

369
00:26:24,345 --> 00:26:27,243
<i>Shan to Bridge.
How are they, Mr. Shan?</i>

370
00:26:27,312 --> 00:26:29,573
<i>They aren't, sir.
There's no one on the launch.</i>

371
00:26:29,645 --> 00:26:31,043
How could that be?

372
00:26:31,112 --> 00:26:34,804
The computer says the launch was
not on autopilot. It was driven back.

373
00:26:34,877 --> 00:26:38,002
<i>Captain, I'm showing
someone inside our reactor.</i>

374
00:26:38,077 --> 00:26:39,065
Engine room!

375
00:26:39,144 --> 00:26:41,336
<i>Engine room here.
Who's in the reactor?</i>

376
00:26:41,410 --> 00:26:44,342
<i>Inside? No one, sir. I've
got the same thing over here.</i>

377
00:26:44,410 --> 00:26:46,239
Someone breached weapons bay
for a second.

378
00:26:46,310 --> 00:26:48,434
Not really an image,
more like an echo of one.

379
00:26:48,509 --> 00:26:51,771
<i>I've got them now in
propulsion. Telemetry guidance.</i>

380
00:26:51,843 --> 00:26:55,605
<i>Stem to stern. There's more
than one. Your plans ready?</i>

381
00:26:57,376 --> 00:26:58,841
<i>Let's do it.</i>

382
00:26:58,908 --> 00:27:02,499
Mr. Shan, engine room, code
four. What about the signal?

383
00:27:02,575 --> 00:27:05,063
<i>I've broken it down into
fragments. It's totally random.</i>

384
00:27:05,141 --> 00:27:08,369
<i>I've zeroed in on the wavelength. It
registers in an area of Darwin's brain...</i>

385
00:27:08,441 --> 00:27:09,804
we never thought had to do
with speech.

386
00:27:09,874 --> 00:27:12,704
Can he read it? Well,
maybe. I have to filter it.

387
00:27:12,774 --> 00:27:16,103
<i>Let's put you in your room. Put a
guard on him. Seal down the Bridge.</i>

388
00:27:17,906 --> 00:27:20,371
<i>These auxiliary lights
aren't working, either.</i>

389
00:27:20,740 --> 00:27:22,729
<i>Let's tether up.</i>

390
00:27:25,506 --> 00:27:26,766
<i>Let's go.</i>

391
00:27:30,605 --> 00:27:33,901
<i>We've lost contact with 16 crew
members. We have confirmed sightings.</i>

392
00:27:33,971 --> 00:27:35,130
What does it look like?

393
00:27:35,205 --> 00:27:38,000
<i>Like, "Oh, my God! " and "No! " That's
all our people have time to say...</i>

394
00:27:38,071 --> 00:27:39,094
before we lose contact.

395
00:27:39,171 --> 00:27:41,728
<i>Crew quarters, galley, gym.
He's looking us over.</i>

396
00:27:41,804 --> 00:27:43,326
<i>For what?
I haven't the foggiest.</i>

397
00:27:43,404 --> 00:27:44,892
Maintenance and engineering!

398
00:27:45,638 --> 00:27:47,830
<i>All right, let's set up
a checkpoint, right here.</i>

399
00:27:47,903 --> 00:27:50,596
Med bay? Nothing can move
that fast.

400
00:27:59,902 --> 00:28:02,424
Where are all my people?
The report said it was here!

401
00:28:19,834 --> 00:28:21,265
<i>Don't shoot!</i>

402
00:28:25,367 --> 00:28:26,764
<i>We... we won't hurt you.</i>

403
00:28:27,533 --> 00:28:32,056
<i>Nathan, it doesn't register! My
scan shows nothing in front of us!</i>

404
00:28:35,332 --> 00:28:36,763
Why are you here?

405
00:28:54,397 --> 00:28:55,420
We...

406
00:28:56,930 --> 00:28:58,328
are friendly.

407
00:29:09,662 --> 00:29:11,992
<i>Mr. Shan.
Nathan, that's sand!</i>

408
00:29:14,929 --> 00:29:16,121
<i>It's hot!</i>

409
00:29:18,694 --> 00:29:21,785
<i>Commander, are you sure
this is the right way?</i>

410
00:29:22,728 --> 00:29:24,717
<i>It's the only way,
Lieutenant.</i>

411
00:29:25,327 --> 00:29:28,850
This reminds me of a science fiction
story I read when I was a kid.

412
00:29:29,394 --> 00:29:32,325
These explorers found a downed
space ship, just like we did.

413
00:29:32,393 --> 00:29:35,188
And then, after they
went inside, it took off.

414
00:29:35,259 --> 00:29:38,747
<i>The ship hadn't crashed after
all. What happened to the people?</i>

415
00:29:39,692 --> 00:29:43,056
They were dissected, eaten.
They were?

416
00:29:43,126 --> 00:29:44,523
Oh, I get it.

417
00:30:01,991 --> 00:30:03,479
You okay?

418
00:30:03,757 --> 00:30:05,086
<i>Uh-huh.</i>

419
00:30:05,824 --> 00:30:07,312
Tim, you all right?

420
00:30:08,223 --> 00:30:09,813
Not really.

421
00:30:14,956 --> 00:30:17,080
<i>Hang on.
I'm gonna pull you up.</i>

422
00:30:17,356 --> 00:30:18,481
No...

423
00:30:18,922 --> 00:30:21,320
I think you better
come down here.

424
00:30:25,722 --> 00:30:28,187
<i>This new life form
is fascinating.</i>

425
00:30:28,555 --> 00:30:32,714
<i>There doesn't appear to be an interacting
intelligence or freedom of will.</i>

426
00:30:33,420 --> 00:30:34,477
Meaning what?

427
00:30:34,554 --> 00:30:37,714
<i>They're fluid. The alien's
actions are also rhythmical.</i>

428
00:30:37,987 --> 00:30:41,919
<i>It was earlier hypothesized that
Mr. Ortiz's pending implosion...</i>

429
00:30:41,987 --> 00:30:44,475
<i>was part of the ship's
self-defense mechanism.</i>

430
00:30:44,553 --> 00:30:46,712
<i>Could he be part of
that system? Possibly.</i>

431
00:30:46,786 --> 00:30:48,081
<i>It's a robot?</i>

432
00:30:48,286 --> 00:30:53,116
<i>I would say more a hologram,
a projection, like myself.</i>

433
00:30:54,052 --> 00:30:57,313
<i>I call attention to your
earlier encounter with the alien.</i>

434
00:30:57,385 --> 00:31:00,942
<i>Notice the sand residue when
it passes through the bulkhead.</i>

435
00:31:01,251 --> 00:31:03,716
Could this be
silicon magnetics?

436
00:31:03,784 --> 00:31:06,249
<i>Unproven, though
that would be an answer.</i>

437
00:31:06,317 --> 00:31:09,181
Just as our magnets
attract iron...

438
00:31:09,250 --> 00:31:12,477
theirs could attract free-floating
molecules of silicon...

439
00:31:12,550 --> 00:31:15,607
which pull together into
the shape that we see.

440
00:31:15,817 --> 00:31:18,715
So, while his magnetic field
could go through that wall...

441
00:31:18,782 --> 00:31:20,373
<i>the material
that he attracts can't.</i>

442
00:31:20,450 --> 00:31:21,473
Right.

443
00:31:21,549 --> 00:31:25,073
<i>That would explain why it scans
as an echo. It's not really there.</i>

444
00:31:25,382 --> 00:31:27,041
Could we stop him?

445
00:31:27,148 --> 00:31:31,410
<i>I'm afraid with our technology that
might prove impossible in the time left.</i>

446
00:31:31,982 --> 00:31:33,572
Then we have to
talk to him.

447
00:31:42,381 --> 00:31:44,142
Look at this.

448
00:31:52,213 --> 00:31:54,644
<i>Your headache back?
Yeah.</i>

449
00:31:54,879 --> 00:31:55,867
Mine, too.

450
00:31:56,479 --> 00:31:58,775
This looks like
the source of their power.

451
00:31:59,145 --> 00:32:03,100
How can their signal still be
broadcasting after a million years?

452
00:32:03,511 --> 00:32:04,670
<i>I don't think...</i>

453
00:32:04,745 --> 00:32:06,904
a million years means too
much to them, Lieutenant.

454
00:32:07,311 --> 00:32:09,209
<i>Help seaQuest.</i>

455
00:32:09,278 --> 00:32:11,766
Yes. Thank you.

456
00:32:24,376 --> 00:32:26,137
Very cool.

457
00:32:39,175 --> 00:32:41,902
<i>That's your signal to us.</i>

458
00:32:43,608 --> 00:32:45,267
Do you recognize it?

459
00:32:47,741 --> 00:32:49,536
<i>We can't figure out
what it means.</i>

460
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:52,831
<i>Rock, water...</i>

461
00:32:52,907 --> 00:32:55,839
<i>fire, cloud...</i>

462
00:32:56,373 --> 00:32:57,634
<i>center...</i>

463
00:32:58,073 --> 00:32:59,539
<i>unit.</i>

464
00:32:59,607 --> 00:33:02,164
<i>That's... That's Darwin.</i>

465
00:33:05,006 --> 00:33:06,471
<i>He's a dolphin.</i>

466
00:33:12,738 --> 00:33:13,965
Lucas.

467
00:33:33,869 --> 00:33:35,835
Breathe, breathe.

468
00:33:36,036 --> 00:33:37,524
Chief Shan.

469
00:33:40,569 --> 00:33:42,057
What the hell is that?

470
00:33:45,035 --> 00:33:46,126
Bridge?

471
00:33:46,535 --> 00:33:49,023
Propulsion, guidance,
and life support systems...

472
00:33:49,101 --> 00:33:50,930
have been shut down
in sequence, sir.

473
00:33:51,001 --> 00:33:52,024
<i>We're dead in the water.</i>

474
00:33:52,101 --> 00:33:55,555
<i>Can you float us? Negative,
ballast control's gone.</i>

475
00:33:55,701 --> 00:33:56,928
Great.

476
00:34:04,033 --> 00:34:06,965
I sped the signal to the highest
frequency we can manufacture.

477
00:34:07,033 --> 00:34:08,123
<i>It's still not
making any sense.</i>

478
00:34:08,199 --> 00:34:09,460
<i>Maybe it's the
wrong direction.</i>

479
00:34:09,533 --> 00:34:10,964
Slow it down.
Might make a difference.

480
00:34:11,032 --> 00:34:12,020
Why?

481
00:34:12,099 --> 00:34:15,190
<i>A million years ago, human beings
weren't anything more than glorified apes.</i>

482
00:34:15,266 --> 00:34:17,027
<i>They weren't even
in this part of the world.</i>

483
00:34:17,099 --> 00:34:20,087
The most intelligent creatures
then, brain weight to body size...

484
00:34:20,165 --> 00:34:21,153
Dolphins!

485
00:34:21,731 --> 00:34:22,924
Yes.

486
00:34:22,998 --> 00:34:25,089
<i>That's who the alien
wants to talk to!</i>

487
00:34:25,198 --> 00:34:26,390
Hold it.

488
00:34:27,731 --> 00:34:29,492
Lucas, get on it.

489
00:34:39,263 --> 00:34:41,320
Darwin, come to the Bridge.

490
00:34:41,896 --> 00:34:43,260
Come to the Bridge.

491
00:34:48,029 --> 00:34:49,722
Good heavens!

492
00:34:50,729 --> 00:34:52,627
This is very humbling.

493
00:34:53,795 --> 00:34:55,318
<i>They're not here for us.</i>

494
00:34:59,261 --> 00:35:01,159
Do you understand this?

495
00:35:01,461 --> 00:35:05,620
<i>Yes. Distance from
rock-water planet...</i>

496
00:35:05,894 --> 00:35:09,690
<i>to fire star,
equals one unit.</i>

497
00:35:10,060 --> 00:35:12,424
<i>The Earth's distance
from the sun is one unit.</i>

498
00:35:12,493 --> 00:35:14,754
<i>They're establishing
a mathematical equation.</i>

499
00:35:14,926 --> 00:35:17,585
<i>Distance from fire star...</i>

500
00:35:17,659 --> 00:35:20,625
<i>to center
of fire star cloud...</i>

501
00:35:20,693 --> 00:35:24,556
<i>is one, nine,
then eight zeros.</i>

502
00:35:24,925 --> 00:35:27,914
The distance of our sun
to the center of the galaxy...

503
00:35:28,125 --> 00:35:30,818
is one billion, nine
hundred thousand times that.

504
00:35:30,991 --> 00:35:33,617
<i>Yeah, that's right.
That's an astronomical unit.</i>

505
00:35:34,924 --> 00:35:38,583
<i>Send message of cooperation.</i>

506
00:35:39,357 --> 00:35:42,653
<i>We will come again.</i>

507
00:35:43,123 --> 00:35:45,816
<i>There are numbers now.</i>

508
00:35:45,890 --> 00:35:48,049
<i>Many numbers.</i>

509
00:35:48,123 --> 00:35:49,110
Coordinates.

510
00:35:49,189 --> 00:35:51,348
They want an invitation
to return.

511
00:35:52,789 --> 00:35:53,948
Captain.

512
00:36:27,652 --> 00:36:30,243
<i>It's trying
to protect Darwin.</i>

513
00:36:30,552 --> 00:36:32,347
<i>Tell him we're your friends.</i>

514
00:36:36,785 --> 00:36:39,115
Tell him you understand
his message.

515
00:36:39,518 --> 00:36:41,416
<i>That's why we're all here.</i>

516
00:37:04,682 --> 00:37:06,148
Extraordinary.

517
00:37:13,381 --> 00:37:14,971
<i>Scott, do you read me?</i>

518
00:37:15,048 --> 00:37:16,843
<i>Nathan, you won't believe
what's happened.</i>

519
00:37:16,914 --> 00:37:18,107
<i>I'll match you
story for story.</i>

520
00:37:18,181 --> 00:37:20,806
<i>But right now, you've got about
15 minutes to get out of there.</i>

521
00:37:20,881 --> 00:37:22,141
<i>We're sending
another launch.</i>

522
00:37:22,213 --> 00:37:24,076
I hear you. Hang on.

523
00:37:28,613 --> 00:37:30,476
<i>It's the cockpit, Commander.</i>

524
00:37:49,111 --> 00:37:52,906
Oh, dear God,
give me insight.

525
00:37:53,311 --> 00:37:56,743
<i>Let me understand what I'm
looking at before they destroy it.</i>

526
00:37:58,543 --> 00:37:59,975
<i>Cmdr. Keller...</i>

527
00:38:00,410 --> 00:38:02,205
I think you should
take a look at this.

528
00:38:19,675 --> 00:38:22,470
The Lord works in strange
and mysterious ways.

529
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,099
<i>Commander,
it's time to go.</i>

530
00:38:59,837 --> 00:39:00,962
Sir.

531
00:39:02,971 --> 00:39:05,800
<i>That's Cmdr. Keller, Krieg
and O'Neill heading back.</i>

532
00:39:06,537 --> 00:39:08,729
But I think you better
take a look at this.

533
00:39:12,102 --> 00:39:13,796
Are those life forms?

534
00:39:13,870 --> 00:39:16,301
<i>That's what I thought, sir.
But I wanted another opinion.</i>

535
00:39:16,369 --> 00:39:18,960
<i>Well, you've got it, Mr.
Ortiz. Pinpoint that location.</i>

536
00:39:19,036 --> 00:39:20,093
Aye, sir.

537
00:39:23,468 --> 00:39:26,263
<i>Scott, we've got 34 signs
of life about...</i>

538
00:39:26,335 --> 00:39:28,324
eighty yards
from your position.

539
00:39:28,402 --> 00:39:29,424
Extraterrestrials?

540
00:39:29,501 --> 00:39:31,490
<i>That's the exact number
of crew unaccounted for.</i>

541
00:39:31,568 --> 00:39:32,795
Including Crocker.

542
00:39:33,768 --> 00:39:35,028
<i>Let's go get them.</i>

543
00:39:35,734 --> 00:39:38,222
<i>Wait a minute, Commander.
Something's going on here.</i>

544
00:39:41,233 --> 00:39:43,426
<i>They're disappearing off
the alien ship.</i>

545
00:39:48,066 --> 00:39:49,725
<i>They're gone, sir.</i>

546
00:40:05,731 --> 00:40:06,821
Bridge.

547
00:40:08,431 --> 00:40:10,828
Come on, guys.
Stick to the center.

548
00:40:15,764 --> 00:40:18,389
<i>We're there, Captain.
We made it back to the launch.</i>

549
00:40:27,929 --> 00:40:29,690
The launch is safely aboard,
sir.

550
00:40:29,828 --> 00:40:31,487
Engage, full speed reverse.

551
00:40:57,359 --> 00:40:58,915
It just dissolved.

552
00:41:11,457 --> 00:41:13,685
This meeting has not
taken place.

553
00:41:14,691 --> 00:41:18,487
If anyone has a problem
with that, please leave now.

554
00:41:24,423 --> 00:41:26,888
We feel that these aliens...

555
00:41:27,256 --> 00:41:30,653
want to have peaceful
and intelligent encounters.

556
00:41:31,489 --> 00:41:33,853
<i>Why do I get the feeling
you're talking to me?</i>

557
00:41:33,923 --> 00:41:35,513
<i>I'm talking to everyone.</i>

558
00:41:35,955 --> 00:41:37,784
<i>Everyone
who's wearing a uniform.</i>

559
00:41:38,655 --> 00:41:42,485
<i>Look, we think that it's best,
if they do come again...</i>

560
00:41:42,688 --> 00:41:45,279
that they be greeted
with understanding.

561
00:41:45,588 --> 00:41:47,315
<i>In their words "cooperation".</i>

562
00:41:47,388 --> 00:41:49,717
In other words, by us.

563
00:41:50,054 --> 00:41:53,611
<i>We're not gonna tell the military
guys in the UEO what happened.</i>

564
00:42:01,153 --> 00:42:03,618
<i>That means we're going to
have to alter the data disks.</i>

565
00:42:03,686 --> 00:42:06,981
<i>We're going to withhold the
location of the aliens' galaxy?</i>

566
00:42:07,052 --> 00:42:11,609
<i>If the UEO doesn't send an invitation,
how would the aliens know to come?</i>

567
00:42:12,085 --> 00:42:13,710
We send it...

568
00:42:17,218 --> 00:42:18,548
ourselves.

569
00:42:21,817 --> 00:42:25,078
<i>That's why you had us align
the WSKRS in a stacked array.</i>

570
00:42:25,217 --> 00:42:27,376
That would allow
for a pinpoint transmission...

571
00:42:27,450 --> 00:42:29,642
of a microwave signal
at maximum power.

572
00:42:33,117 --> 00:42:35,015
This is galaxy M-100.

573
00:42:36,283 --> 00:42:39,113
<i>It's a bright light
behind the Cook nebula, here.</i>

574
00:42:39,649 --> 00:42:42,410
Now, they come from the end
of this spiral arm.

575
00:42:42,482 --> 00:42:46,642
Circling a red giant sun, 40
million light-years away from us.

576
00:42:46,782 --> 00:42:50,770
<i>But the romantic in me hopes they're set
up to receive our signal in less time.</i>

577
00:42:55,180 --> 00:42:57,043
What would this message say?

578
00:42:57,247 --> 00:42:58,304
Lucas?

579
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,241
<i>"In the spirit of cooperation
and knowledge...</i>

580
00:43:06,046 --> 00:43:08,740
<i>"the residents of our planet
welcome and invite you. "</i>

581
00:43:11,812 --> 00:43:13,300
<i>Darwin's translated it.</i>

582
00:43:14,345 --> 00:43:16,675
<i>With seaQuest
as the return address.</i>

583
00:43:29,611 --> 00:43:30,701
Agreed?

584
00:43:55,909 --> 00:43:58,067
Permission to transmit,
granted.

585
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:06,770
Commander.

586
00:44:17,473 --> 00:44:19,904
You figured it out, Nathan.

587
00:44:22,206 --> 00:44:23,762
You send the message.

588
00:44:32,838 --> 00:44:35,929
<i>You've shown
such great patience.</i>

589
00:44:37,237 --> 00:44:38,464
Now...

590
00:44:39,337 --> 00:44:40,462
hurry.

591
00:44:57,602 --> 00:45:00,726
<i>Hello, I'm Bob Ballard from the
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution.</i>

592
00:45:00,801 --> 00:45:03,097
<i>Although tonight's episode
was pure fantasy...</i>

593
00:45:03,168 --> 00:45:06,861
we continue to wonder about the
possibility of life on other planets.

594
00:45:06,935 --> 00:45:09,457
For the last 33 years,
scientists have used...

595
00:45:09,568 --> 00:45:12,193
radio telescopes to
eavesdrop on the universe...

596
00:45:12,268 --> 00:45:15,700
hoping to detect radio signals
from intelligent life.

597
00:45:15,767 --> 00:45:18,824
One such radio telescope
located in Puerto Rico...

598
00:45:18,901 --> 00:45:22,923
<i>is pointed at nearby stars
waiting to hear a distant "hello".</i>

599
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:27,125
<i>Join us on the next exciting
episode of seaQuest DSV.</i>
