1
00:00:16,808 --> 00:00:18,768
Okay. It's in stasis.

2
00:00:18,769 --> 00:00:21,146
I've killed the security cams in the area.

3
00:00:22,981 --> 00:00:24,399
I don't see any way around it.

4
00:00:25,526 --> 00:00:27,068
To find out what's been happening,

5
00:00:27,069 --> 00:00:30,446
we have to go to one of their areas
on the maps that's been blanked out.

6
00:00:30,447 --> 00:00:32,322
And when I say "we," I mean me.

7
00:00:32,323 --> 00:00:34,076
Why you?

8
00:00:34,868 --> 00:00:37,495
Because I have expertise in terraforming.

9
00:00:37,496 --> 00:00:40,540
I can take samples and measurements
and be in and out quickly.

10
00:00:40,541 --> 00:00:43,335
It makes sense to go there,
but what about safety?

11
00:00:44,294 --> 00:00:45,503
I'll go. If you're going.

12
00:00:45,504 --> 00:00:46,879
- Gura.
- Oh, I have weapons training.

13
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:48,799
You have to monitor from the habitat.

14
00:00:49,424 --> 00:00:51,843
Bharadwaj is a geochemist.
If she was well, it would be useful...

15
00:00:51,844 --> 00:00:53,678
I'm sorry.
You should just take the SecUnit.

16
00:00:53,679 --> 00:00:54,887
Absolutely not.

17
00:00:54,888 --> 00:00:56,973
[Ratthi] Oh, I see.
That's why we're in the hopper.

18
00:00:56,974 --> 00:00:59,100
- Because you don't trust it.
- That's correct.

19
00:00:59,101 --> 00:01:02,937
- Yes, but you don't trust anyone.
- I trust you. I trust this team.

20
00:01:02,938 --> 00:01:06,315
I just don't trust anyone or anything
that comes from the Company.

21
00:01:06,316 --> 00:01:08,234
And you have good reason for that.

22
00:01:08,235 --> 00:01:10,111
- You do.
- Yes. We love you, Gura.

23
00:01:10,112 --> 00:01:11,530
Yeah. We really do, Gugu.

24
00:01:12,906 --> 00:01:14,156
Can we stay on track?

25
00:01:14,157 --> 00:01:17,785
I-I wanna resolve this
before it comes out of stasis.

26
00:01:17,786 --> 00:01:19,204
I went in and talked to it.

27
00:01:20,831 --> 00:01:21,832
You did?

28
00:01:22,499 --> 00:01:24,667
I wanted to draw my own conclusion.

29
00:01:24,668 --> 00:01:26,628
And? Do you think we can trust it?

30
00:01:28,088 --> 00:01:32,176
I feel that we can, but I think...

31
00:01:33,468 --> 00:01:34,511
we have to be cautious.

32
00:01:36,054 --> 00:01:38,472
It seems like
it's going through something.

33
00:01:38,473 --> 00:01:40,892
- SecUnits don't go through things.
- I know, I know...

34
00:01:40,893 --> 00:01:42,727
They kill and they maim things.

35
00:01:42,728 --> 00:01:44,979
And then when they malfunction,
they get melted down for material,

36
00:01:44,980 --> 00:01:47,106
which is the first thing
that's gonna happen to SecUnit

37
00:01:47,107 --> 00:01:49,901
when we get back to Port FreeCommerce.

38
00:01:49,902 --> 00:01:52,112
I'm gonna see to it personally,
but until that time...

39
00:01:53,947 --> 00:01:55,656
we need to stay out of its way.

40
00:01:55,657 --> 00:01:57,617
- I don't want it to look...
- [door buzzes]

41
00:01:57,618 --> 00:01:58,994
[door opens]

42
00:02:06,877 --> 00:02:08,627
- [chuckling] Hi. Hi.
- [sighs]

43
00:02:08,628 --> 00:02:09,794
[chuckles]

44
00:02:09,795 --> 00:02:11,506
- Bharadwaj.
- [Bharadwaj] What's going on?

45
00:02:11,507 --> 00:02:13,090
You having a secret meeting?

46
00:02:13,091 --> 00:02:14,967
- I love a secret meeting.
- [Mensah] Oh.

47
00:02:14,968 --> 00:02:17,053
- You look so much better.
- I'm feeling so much better.

48
00:02:17,054 --> 00:02:18,971
Our med bay is amazing,

49
00:02:18,972 --> 00:02:21,390
- and the stimulants are effective too.
- [Mensah] Yes, they are.

50
00:02:21,391 --> 00:02:24,018
- Who fixed my... my suit?
- Oh, yeah. That was me. I did that.

51
00:02:24,019 --> 00:02:25,269
He did not do that. I did that.

52
00:02:25,270 --> 00:02:27,605
- You're welcome.
- I love it. Thank you. Thank you.

53
00:02:27,606 --> 00:02:29,815
- [chuckles]
- [Pin-Lee] Yes. Oh!

54
00:02:29,816 --> 00:02:31,567
- I don't... [stutters]
- Oh, bring it in.

55
00:02:31,568 --> 00:02:34,278
- Oh, yeah. No. That still hurts. Yeah.
- [winces] Oh. Oh. Oh. Sorry.

56
00:02:34,279 --> 00:02:36,656
- Okay. Let's have a seat.
- What's happening? What's happening?

57
00:02:36,657 --> 00:02:39,492
- Does anybody have some water?
- We'll get some, okay?

58
00:02:39,493 --> 00:02:42,203
The missing areas on the maps.
We have to go investigate.

59
00:02:42,204 --> 00:02:44,206
Great. I'm in.

60
00:02:44,748 --> 00:02:47,042
I guess I'll close the fucking door.
[clears throat]

61
00:04:04,077 --> 00:04:05,536
[Murderbot] <i>I was in my repair cubicle,</i>

62
00:04:05,537 --> 00:04:08,749
<i>waiting for the last of my organic parts
to be regrown.</i>

63
00:04:09,458 --> 00:04:11,626
<i>I'd been in stasis all night,</i>

64
00:04:11,627 --> 00:04:15,255
<i>and my clients had decided
to go exploring without me.</i>

65
00:04:17,382 --> 00:04:19,885
Stupid fucking humans.

66
00:04:22,429 --> 00:04:23,889
[Bharadwaj]
I hope this isn't stupid of us.

67
00:04:25,974 --> 00:04:26,975
[exhales sharply]

68
00:04:27,643 --> 00:04:29,393
I shouldn't have let you come.
You are still healing.

69
00:04:29,394 --> 00:04:30,604
I'm good.

70
00:04:31,271 --> 00:04:34,399
No, I'm... This is good,
to get out there again.

71
00:04:39,071 --> 00:04:40,072
[system beeps]

72
00:04:40,948 --> 00:04:42,407
Okay. We're coming up on it.

73
00:04:42,950 --> 00:04:44,242
[scanner beeps]

74
00:04:44,243 --> 00:04:46,078
Scanner's acting a little funny.

75
00:04:46,620 --> 00:04:48,412
Scanners are corporate garbage.

76
00:04:48,413 --> 00:04:51,582
[Murderbot] <i>That was true.
All of their equipment was garbage.</i>

77
00:04:51,583 --> 00:04:53,252
<i>Yeah. Including me.</i>

78
00:04:53,877 --> 00:04:55,169
<i>But you know one thing that worked?</i>

79
00:04:55,170 --> 00:04:58,590
<i>The data mining software
that let me watch them at any time.</i>

80
00:04:59,132 --> 00:05:03,803
<i>Hey, just leave your SecUnit behind
and go check out some mapping anomalies.</i>

81
00:05:03,804 --> 00:05:07,557
<i>Even though one of you just got chewed on
by a giant tooth monster.</i>

82
00:05:07,558 --> 00:05:09,267
Looks fine.

83
00:05:09,268 --> 00:05:11,895
It's probably best
that SecUnit didn't come along.

84
00:05:12,604 --> 00:05:15,565
- Yeah. That was smart.
- [Murderbot] <i>Yeah. Real smart.</i>

85
00:05:15,566 --> 00:05:17,900
<i>Bharadwaj's vital signs were spiking,</i>

86
00:05:17,901 --> 00:05:19,902
<i>and Mensah's were almost as high.</i>

87
00:05:19,903 --> 00:05:22,655
Remember, SecUnit is from the Company too,

88
00:05:22,656 --> 00:05:24,991
so if it is untrustworthy...

89
00:05:24,992 --> 00:05:26,243
Exactly. Yeah.

90
00:05:28,996 --> 00:05:30,080
Okay. I mean...

91
00:05:31,874 --> 00:05:33,292
It did save my life.

92
00:05:36,503 --> 00:05:37,921
Good point. [clears throat]

93
00:05:38,672 --> 00:05:40,507
Gurathin felt it best to leave it behind.

94
00:05:41,633 --> 00:05:43,718
[Gurathin] <i>SecUnit,
can you come see me, please?</i>

95
00:05:43,719 --> 00:05:45,137
Gurathin.

96
00:05:46,305 --> 00:05:48,390
<i>What was his fucking problem?</i>

97
00:05:49,516 --> 00:05:51,809
<i>It was Gurathin, the augmented human,</i>

98
00:05:51,810 --> 00:05:54,103
<i>who had the systems ability
to keep me in the dark.</i>

99
00:05:54,104 --> 00:05:55,772
Stop there please, SecUnit.

100
00:05:57,274 --> 00:06:01,945
[Murderbot] <i>Ooh. Look at him,
all fancy with his augments.</i>

101
00:06:02,696 --> 00:06:04,238
<i>If I'd wanted to sneak up on him,</i>

102
00:06:04,239 --> 00:06:07,074
<i>I could've snapped his neck
before he knew I was online.</i>

103
00:06:07,075 --> 00:06:09,328
[Gurathin] I'd prefer it
if you put your helmet down.

104
00:06:09,912 --> 00:06:12,706
Now that I know you have a face,
I'd love to see it.

105
00:06:25,928 --> 00:06:26,929
[clears throat]

106
00:06:30,807 --> 00:06:31,850
[clears throat]

107
00:06:34,228 --> 00:06:35,229
[Murderbot] <i>Oh, great.</i>

108
00:06:35,896 --> 00:06:37,397
<i>Eye contact.</i>

109
00:06:37,898 --> 00:06:39,941
<i>I hated eye contact.</i>

110
00:06:39,942 --> 00:06:42,610
<i>I watched through
the security feed instead.</i>

111
00:06:42,611 --> 00:06:44,237
<i>Much less creepy that way.</i>

112
00:06:44,238 --> 00:06:45,738
Please, sit.

113
00:06:45,739 --> 00:06:47,865
[Murderbot] <i>Humans never ask you
to sit with them,</i>

114
00:06:47,866 --> 00:06:50,785
<i>so sitting isn't really
a comfortable proposition.</i>

115
00:06:50,786 --> 00:06:52,286
I'm fine standing. Thank you.

116
00:06:52,287 --> 00:06:54,540
I insist. Sit.

117
00:07:07,177 --> 00:07:08,428
- [chair creaks]
- [sighs]

118
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,766
I understand Dr. Mensah
and Professor Bharadwaj

119
00:07:13,767 --> 00:07:15,853
- are out in the hopper.
- I'm in contact with them.

120
00:07:16,728 --> 00:07:18,813
They're taking all necessary precautions.

121
00:07:18,814 --> 00:07:22,985
[Murderbot]
<i>I am a necessary precaution, moron.</i>

122
00:07:23,777 --> 00:07:26,154
I noticed you have an issue
with eye contact.

123
00:07:27,865 --> 00:07:29,156
What a strange expression.

124
00:07:29,157 --> 00:07:30,283
"Eye contact."

125
00:07:30,284 --> 00:07:34,287
Like our eyes are stalks
coming out of our heads

126
00:07:34,288 --> 00:07:36,874
and touching other people's eyestalks.

127
00:07:37,541 --> 00:07:38,833
[chuckles softly]

128
00:07:38,834 --> 00:07:40,502
[Murderbot] <i>Okay, weirdo.</i>

129
00:07:42,045 --> 00:07:44,381
Dr. Gurathin, I recommend
I join the team in the hopper.

130
00:07:44,965 --> 00:07:48,259
Or that they return immediately. My threat
assessment module indicates that...

131
00:07:48,260 --> 00:07:50,761
How is your system doing
after yesterday's attack?

132
00:07:50,762 --> 00:07:53,014
Efficiency is at 97% and rising.

133
00:07:53,015 --> 00:07:54,349
That's not what I...

134
00:07:57,436 --> 00:07:58,770
[system beeps]

135
00:08:00,981 --> 00:08:05,277
I guess I just don't understand
much about SecUnits.

136
00:08:08,906 --> 00:08:10,115
What's it like

137
00:08:11,658 --> 00:08:12,659
to be you?

138
00:08:17,623 --> 00:08:19,625
I don't know what it's like to not be me.

139
00:08:21,043 --> 00:08:22,544
So I can't say what it's like.

140
00:08:26,381 --> 00:08:28,341
[Murderbot]
<i>Didn't he have anybody else to bother?</i>

141
00:08:28,342 --> 00:08:30,134
<i>What were Pin-Lee and Arada doing?</i>

142
00:08:30,135 --> 00:08:31,719
[Pin-Lee] <i>You're really precious to me.</i>

143
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,140
Life is so precious.

144
00:08:41,563 --> 00:08:43,690
I want you to have everything.

145
00:08:44,483 --> 00:08:46,108
- [chuckles]
- [chuckles] I love you.

146
00:08:46,109 --> 00:08:48,402
- [Murderbot] <i>Ugh, that was worse.</i>
- I love you.

147
00:08:48,403 --> 00:08:50,821
- [Gurathin] SecUnit.
- Yes, Dr. Gurathin.

148
00:08:50,822 --> 00:08:53,991
Do you know why I advised Dr. Mensah
not to take you along?

149
00:08:53,992 --> 00:08:55,117
[Murderbot] <i>'Cause you're a dick?</i>

150
00:08:55,118 --> 00:08:57,412
- No, Dr. Gurathin.
- Because...

151
00:08:59,706 --> 00:09:00,958
I look at you...

152
00:09:09,299 --> 00:09:12,803
and I feel something's wrong.

153
00:09:15,514 --> 00:09:16,598
[Murderbot] <i>Oh, shit.</i>

154
00:09:29,278 --> 00:09:31,488
- I think you should stay in the hopper.
- What?

155
00:09:32,322 --> 00:09:35,908
- Absolutely not. You need a geochemist.
- I do have a degree in terraforming.

156
00:09:35,909 --> 00:09:39,371
Sure, but, you know, that's terraforming.

157
00:09:41,290 --> 00:09:42,666
What's wrong with terraforming?

158
00:09:43,375 --> 00:09:46,003
Nothing. It's-It's just not geochemistry.

159
00:09:46,587 --> 00:09:48,338
- Obviously.
- So...

160
00:09:49,131 --> 00:09:50,173
Bharadwaj, I need you here

161
00:09:50,174 --> 00:09:52,759
in case I have to run my arse off
and get this hopper in the air.

162
00:09:53,260 --> 00:09:56,721
You can keep me safe
by monitoring the hopper sensors.

163
00:09:56,722 --> 00:09:59,390
Gurathin logged the sound footprint
of one of those creatures.

164
00:09:59,391 --> 00:10:01,560
If you hear one coming, let me know.

165
00:10:02,477 --> 00:10:03,478
Yeah.

166
00:10:05,647 --> 00:10:06,648
[softly] Yeah.

167
00:10:10,569 --> 00:10:11,986
[Arada] Are you sure?

168
00:10:11,987 --> 00:10:14,197
I'm sure, I think.

169
00:10:14,198 --> 00:10:16,199
Even though the last throuple
didn't go so well?

170
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,619
Yeah. Well, here's the thing.
First off, she was crazy.

171
00:10:20,996 --> 00:10:22,539
She was dysregulated.

172
00:10:23,248 --> 00:10:25,833
- And second off...
- [sighs]

173
00:10:25,834 --> 00:10:28,419
...we didn't have a contract,
so everything got very chaotic.

174
00:10:28,420 --> 00:10:30,881
But I, um... I already drafted one up.

175
00:10:32,216 --> 00:10:35,801
You said we were in a rut,
and after that thing attacked, I just...

176
00:10:35,802 --> 00:10:38,471
- Life is short.
- Thank you. Oh, yes!

177
00:10:38,472 --> 00:10:41,975
- Thank you, thank you, thank you.
- [chuckling] Okay.

178
00:10:43,227 --> 00:10:44,436
I think this is gonna be great.

179
00:10:45,145 --> 00:10:46,855
Yeah. Me too.

180
00:10:47,898 --> 00:10:49,274
I'll go get him.

181
00:10:49,983 --> 00:10:52,236
This is gonna be great.
[singsongy] I'm so, so happy.

182
00:10:53,570 --> 00:10:55,572
She's so happy.

183
00:10:56,156 --> 00:10:58,742
I'm happy she's happy. [sighs]

184
00:10:59,910 --> 00:11:00,911
[Murderbot] <i>Gurathin knew.</i>

185
00:11:01,995 --> 00:11:03,455
<i>He definitely knew.</i>

186
00:11:04,998 --> 00:11:07,835
<i>While he was busy
printing himself some nutrition,</i>

187
00:11:08,961 --> 00:11:10,920
<i>I saw my chance to escape.</i>

188
00:11:10,921 --> 00:11:13,047
In Preservation Alliance,
we don't have SecUnits.

189
00:11:13,048 --> 00:11:14,132
Did you know that?

190
00:11:15,551 --> 00:11:16,884
[Murderbot] <i>I couldn't stand the guy,</i>

191
00:11:16,885 --> 00:11:19,887
<i>but his interrogation technique
was very impressive.</i>

192
00:11:19,888 --> 00:11:22,473
Preservation Alliance is not
in the Corporation Rim.

193
00:11:22,474 --> 00:11:23,975
Most certainly is not.

194
00:11:23,976 --> 00:11:25,477
[food printer beeps]

195
00:11:26,019 --> 00:11:29,690
The prevalent philosophy
in Preservation Alliance is that...

196
00:11:31,275 --> 00:11:33,360
constructs, AIs, are people.

197
00:11:35,571 --> 00:11:37,155
I know. It's...

198
00:11:39,157 --> 00:11:40,450
weird to think about.

199
00:11:41,368 --> 00:11:42,578
I only joined

200
00:11:43,954 --> 00:11:47,582
Preservation a little over six years ago.

201
00:11:47,583 --> 00:11:49,543
I was friends with Dr. Mensah.

202
00:11:50,085 --> 00:11:52,211
[Murderbot] <i>Why was he telling me this?</i>

203
00:11:52,212 --> 00:11:54,173
I don't know why I'm telling you all this.

204
00:11:55,048 --> 00:11:56,508
But I do know that

205
00:11:57,509 --> 00:12:00,678
in the Corporation Rim,
you are considered equipment,

206
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,389
and you have to do what we say.

207
00:12:03,390 --> 00:12:05,391
Unless it would endanger you, yes.

208
00:12:05,392 --> 00:12:07,727
<i>Like if I pulped your head
between my hands.</i>

209
00:12:07,728 --> 00:12:13,608
Okay. Well, I am requiring you

210
00:12:13,609 --> 00:12:17,946
to make and maintain eye contact.

211
00:12:37,883 --> 00:12:40,511
There you go. That's not so bad.

212
00:12:41,178 --> 00:12:43,555
[Murderbot] <i>It was so, so bad.</i>

213
00:12:48,185 --> 00:12:50,896
[wind whistling]

214
00:12:57,903 --> 00:12:58,904
[grunts]

215
00:13:02,783 --> 00:13:04,867
[Bharadwaj] Mensah, how's it going?

216
00:13:04,868 --> 00:13:07,495
[Mensah, on comm] <i>All right.
Hard to get a footing sometimes.</i>

217
00:13:07,496 --> 00:13:09,205
[Bharadwaj]
<i>Looks like the storm is holding off.</i>

218
00:13:09,206 --> 00:13:12,166
<i>I've got you on the drone.
No hostiles detected.</i>

219
00:13:12,167 --> 00:13:13,584
Now, as far as I understand,

220
00:13:13,585 --> 00:13:16,546
SecUnits are not designed
to form attachments with clients.

221
00:13:16,547 --> 00:13:18,881
- Is that correct?
- That is correct. Yes.

222
00:13:18,882 --> 00:13:22,635
There are constructs designed
for such a purpose,

223
00:13:22,636 --> 00:13:24,804
or the simulacrum of intimacy, correct?

224
00:13:24,805 --> 00:13:26,806
Comfort Units. Yes.

225
00:13:26,807 --> 00:13:29,309
"Comfort" meaning...

226
00:13:33,063 --> 00:13:34,439
Sex.

227
00:13:36,483 --> 00:13:38,609
They're designed
for sexual relations with humans.

228
00:13:38,610 --> 00:13:42,239
You were not designed
for sexual relations with humans.

229
00:13:47,911 --> 00:13:48,912
No.

230
00:13:50,038 --> 00:13:51,665
Or emotional attachment of any kind.

231
00:13:52,916 --> 00:13:54,125
And yet,

232
00:13:54,126 --> 00:13:58,963
yesterday, you were quite empathic
with Dr. Arada while you were helping her

233
00:13:58,964 --> 00:14:01,757
accompany Professor Bharadwaj
to the hopper.

234
00:14:01,758 --> 00:14:05,345
Tell me, Dr. Arada,
what planet are you from originally?

235
00:14:07,639 --> 00:14:09,766
Do you have children?
What are their names?

236
00:14:10,267 --> 00:14:11,977
[Gurathin] So, I guess my question is,

237
00:14:13,187 --> 00:14:14,229
how is that possible?

238
00:14:15,314 --> 00:14:17,857
I have a combat trauma module
for helping clients.

239
00:14:17,858 --> 00:14:20,194
[Gurathin] By asking them
questions about children?

240
00:14:21,028 --> 00:14:23,237
[Murderbot] <i>Okay,
I got it from Episode 537</i>

241
00:14:23,238 --> 00:14:24,947
<i>of</i> The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon.

242
00:14:24,948 --> 00:14:26,158
Stay with me, Friess.

243
00:14:27,034 --> 00:14:28,785
- [grunts, panting]
- What planet are you from?

244
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:35,541
[gasping] A little place
called Sanctuary Moon.

245
00:14:35,542 --> 00:14:37,835
- Do you have any children?
- Yeah.

246
00:14:37,836 --> 00:14:39,086
Tell me their names.

247
00:14:39,087 --> 00:14:41,839
I was programmed
to model interpersonal relations.

248
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,174
It is a new feature.

249
00:14:43,175 --> 00:14:44,717
- You're not new.
- [Murderbot] <i>To say the least.</i>

250
00:14:44,718 --> 00:14:46,678
I was told that you were refurbished.

251
00:14:48,096 --> 00:14:50,014
Refurbished for what?

252
00:14:50,015 --> 00:14:51,517
Weapons systems or

253
00:14:52,851 --> 00:14:54,061
organic cloning?

254
00:14:57,064 --> 00:14:58,272
Your governor module?

255
00:14:58,273 --> 00:15:00,567
[crowd clamoring, screaming]

256
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:05,113
I wish I could tell you, Dr. Gurathin.

257
00:15:07,199 --> 00:15:08,992
But my memory was erased.

258
00:15:11,954 --> 00:15:15,666
Okay. Then, here's the deal.

259
00:15:17,167 --> 00:15:22,089
I'm a very cautious person,
and I care very deeply about my friends.

260
00:15:22,589 --> 00:15:25,716
So if you were malfunctioning in any way...

261
00:15:25,717 --> 00:15:27,594
If a SecUnit was malfunctioning,

262
00:15:28,470 --> 00:15:31,055
it would be extremely dangerous
for everyone involved.

263
00:15:31,056 --> 00:15:32,224
Including the SecUnit.

264
00:15:33,517 --> 00:15:34,810
Including the SecUnit.

265
00:15:38,397 --> 00:15:40,815
- I should check the perimeter.
- Perimeter's fine.

266
00:15:40,816 --> 00:15:43,901
[Murderbot groans] <i>He didn't go
for the "perimeter" thing.</i>

267
00:15:43,902 --> 00:15:45,778
<i>Gurathin was a hard nut.</i>

268
00:15:45,779 --> 00:15:50,157
<i>And I could feel him starting to probe
into my recent archives.</i>

269
00:15:50,158 --> 00:15:52,827
<i>So I decided to show him
something else from my feed.</i>

270
00:15:52,828 --> 00:15:56,247
<i>Something that was going on
right here in the habitat.</i>

271
00:15:56,248 --> 00:15:57,957
[Ratthi] I am honored. Truly.

272
00:15:57,958 --> 00:15:59,668
Yeah, we're... we're honored.

273
00:16:00,419 --> 00:16:02,003
- Completely. Yep.
- Yeah.

274
00:16:02,004 --> 00:16:03,714
[Arada breathes shakily]

275
00:16:06,091 --> 00:16:07,551
[both breathing heavily]

276
00:16:13,599 --> 00:16:15,225
[Murderbot] <i>Human copulation.</i>

277
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,062
<i>But this is the part I skip over
when I'm watching media.</i>

278
00:16:20,397 --> 00:16:23,024
<i>I could tell Gurathin wasn't
enjoying it too much either.</i>

279
00:16:23,025 --> 00:16:24,234
Dr. Gurathin?

280
00:16:25,235 --> 00:16:26,403
Are you all right?

281
00:16:27,321 --> 00:16:28,321
Yes.

282
00:16:28,322 --> 00:16:31,366
[Murderbot] <i>He wouldn't be probing around
my feed again anytime soon.</i>

283
00:16:32,868 --> 00:16:34,118
You don't have to look at me anymore.

284
00:16:34,119 --> 00:16:37,079
I think what I was trying to say is that
I care about my friends

285
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:38,998
and that if they were under
any kind of, you know...

286
00:16:38,999 --> 00:16:41,709
[sighs] ...danger or threat...

287
00:16:41,710 --> 00:16:42,920
Of course, Dr. Gurathin.

288
00:16:44,546 --> 00:16:46,840
Anything that is a threat
would have to be eliminated.

289
00:16:48,300 --> 00:16:50,886
In the meantime, I hope that
you will be satisfied with my service.

290
00:16:52,262 --> 00:16:54,181
- Wait.
- Wait, what?

291
00:16:55,057 --> 00:16:57,226
I just got pinged by
the security feed of the hopper.

292
00:16:58,602 --> 00:16:59,894
Something is happening.

...seem to be going kind of crazy.

300
00:17:20,790 --> 00:17:24,752
Um, something is making
the equipment glitch.

[Bharadwaj, distorted] <i>Yeah.

312
00:17:57,369 --> 00:17:59,954
<i>I've detected a potential threat
in the area.</i>

313
00:17:59,955 --> 00:18:02,415
<i>I must ask you to please stop
what you're doing</i>

314
00:18:02,416 --> 00:18:04,500
- <i>and return to the hopper.</i>
- [chuckles]

315
00:18:04,501 --> 00:18:07,587
SecUnit, how are you doing?

316
00:18:07,588 --> 00:18:10,464
[Murderbot] <i>These people. Honestly.</i>

317
00:18:10,465 --> 00:18:12,300
Dr. Mensah, this is Gurathin.

318
00:18:12,301 --> 00:18:13,801
I am here with SecUnit.

319
00:18:13,802 --> 00:18:16,262
It's using the satellite to run comms.

320
00:18:16,263 --> 00:18:19,223
[Mensah pants] <i>That's great. Teamwork.</i>

321
00:18:19,224 --> 00:18:22,393
[cries] <i>So beautiful. So beautiful.</i>

322
00:18:22,394 --> 00:18:26,772
Okay, I, uh, seem to be approaching visual

323
00:18:26,773 --> 00:18:29,192
of the center of the map lacuna.

324
00:18:29,193 --> 00:18:32,320
- [panting] It's just a matter of moments.
- [earth rumbling]

325
00:18:32,321 --> 00:18:35,615
Dr. Mensah, please turn around
and return to the hopper immediately.

326
00:18:35,616 --> 00:18:36,741
Yes.

327
00:18:36,742 --> 00:18:37,867
C-Come back.

328
00:18:37,868 --> 00:18:40,662
- I have come this far. Now is no time...
- [growling]

329
00:18:41,705 --> 00:18:42,955
Did you hear that?

330
00:18:42,956 --> 00:18:44,457
Okay, fuck it. I'm leaving.

331
00:18:44,458 --> 00:18:46,626
Professor Bharadwaj, what is your status?

332
00:18:46,627 --> 00:18:48,169
[Bharadwaj]
<i>I'm getting a vibration matching</i>

333
00:18:48,170 --> 00:18:50,046
<i>the pattern from the first animal attack.</i>

334
00:18:50,047 --> 00:18:53,424
Repeat, I'm getting a vibration matching
the pattern from the first animal attack.

335
00:18:53,425 --> 00:18:56,719
Yes. C-Come back. Come...
Come back now! Ayda!

336
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,223
[Bharadwaj, distorted] <i>Yeah... same...</i>

337
00:19:00,224 --> 00:19:01,725
[roars]

338
00:19:08,106 --> 00:19:10,442
[roars, shrieks]

339
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,157
[gasping] Fuck.

340
00:19:19,159 --> 00:19:20,369
[roars]

341
00:19:27,376 --> 00:19:28,627
[panting]

342
00:19:29,628 --> 00:19:33,006
- [system beeping]
- Oh, wow. Do you see the drone feed?

343
00:19:35,551 --> 00:19:37,553
[drone buzzing]

344
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:56,321
[whimpers]

345
00:19:57,197 --> 00:19:58,698
What the hell could make that happen?

346
00:19:58,699 --> 00:20:00,158
I don't know. I wasn't there.

347
00:20:01,827 --> 00:20:03,579
Dr. Mensah's returning to the hopper.

348
00:20:04,413 --> 00:20:05,831
I would like to check the perimeter.

349
00:20:07,082 --> 00:20:08,083
With your permission.

350
00:20:10,419 --> 00:20:11,587
Permission granted.

351
00:20:16,425 --> 00:20:17,426
SecUnit.

352
00:20:20,721 --> 00:20:23,432
Try to recover that memory, will you?

353
00:20:24,683 --> 00:20:25,809
From the refurbish.

354
00:20:26,935 --> 00:20:29,395
The data that they cleaned
from your memory.

355
00:20:29,396 --> 00:20:32,064
Or, you know what?
Uh, I'd give it a shot myself.

356
00:20:32,065 --> 00:20:34,443
- No.
- No?

357
00:20:35,235 --> 00:20:38,322
I mean, I'll try.

358
00:20:52,252 --> 00:20:53,670
[breathing heavily]

359
00:21:00,511 --> 00:21:01,886
- Hi.
- [sighs]

360
00:21:01,887 --> 00:21:05,389
Mensah, I just wanted to say that I, um,
intend to fix the comms system

361
00:21:05,390 --> 00:21:06,683
on the hopper immediately.

362
00:21:07,809 --> 00:21:12,730
Also, I'm s... I'm sorry that I insisted
SecUnit not follow you on the mission.

363
00:21:12,731 --> 00:21:13,982
I, uh...

364
00:21:15,067 --> 00:21:18,028
I also just wanted to say
I'm really happy that you're back.

365
00:21:20,697 --> 00:21:22,950
- [door opens]
- [Mensah] Gura.

366
00:21:25,827 --> 00:21:27,079
I just need to shower.

367
00:21:32,084 --> 00:21:33,293
[inhales sharply, chuckles softly]

368
00:21:34,336 --> 00:21:36,212
- [wind whistling]
- [printer whirring]

369
00:21:36,213 --> 00:21:38,548
[Mensah] Has anyone ever seen
anything like that?

370
00:21:38,549 --> 00:21:40,384
Fungi can grow in circles like that.

371
00:21:41,134 --> 00:21:43,678
Or at least their rhizomes
break the surface in circles,

372
00:21:43,679 --> 00:21:45,680
revealing a complex
root structure underneath.

373
00:21:45,681 --> 00:21:48,391
- It's actually really fascinating if... No?
- Uh, no. No, I don't...

374
00:21:48,392 --> 00:21:50,977
I don't think those creatures are
connected under the surface.

375
00:21:50,978 --> 00:21:53,271
And they're definitely not alive.
Not anymore.

376
00:21:53,272 --> 00:21:54,856
There is something beneath the terrain.

377
00:21:54,857 --> 00:21:56,942
Something that drew them in,
and it killed them.

378
00:21:58,819 --> 00:22:00,444
- What?
- Alien remnants.

379
00:22:00,445 --> 00:22:04,198
- Aliens? Like from one of your shows?
- No, not like from one of my shows.

380
00:22:04,199 --> 00:22:06,284
Like from millions of years ago.

381
00:22:06,285 --> 00:22:09,245
Sometimes, surveys find
their old synthetics or power sources.

382
00:22:09,246 --> 00:22:11,205
Would that explain the gaps
in the survey maps?

383
00:22:11,206 --> 00:22:15,878
Yes. Alien synthetics could have
glitched the survey satellites.

384
00:22:16,461 --> 00:22:18,421
Well, it blew our drone out of the sky.

385
00:22:18,422 --> 00:22:21,257
If it is old alien stuff,
then we'd be fucked.

386
00:22:21,258 --> 00:22:24,427
You have to stop surveying immediately
so as to not disturb them.

387
00:22:24,428 --> 00:22:26,596
Yep. 'Cause they're dangerous as shit.

388
00:22:26,597 --> 00:22:28,264
Or they're just so valuable,

389
00:22:28,265 --> 00:22:30,892
the Company doesn't want
anybody else to have a stake.

390
00:22:30,893 --> 00:22:32,643
It is illegal to exploit it.

391
00:22:32,644 --> 00:22:34,730
Which doesn't stop some people.

392
00:22:35,898 --> 00:22:38,066
Oh, but I'm not saying us, of course.

393
00:22:38,859 --> 00:22:41,068
There is another team
on the other side of the planet.

394
00:22:41,069 --> 00:22:44,155
DeltFall survey. We should ping them
and compare notes, yes?

395
00:22:44,156 --> 00:22:47,909
- Yeah.
- Good. Okay, we ping. You good?

396
00:22:47,910 --> 00:22:49,577
[Murderbot] <i>Stupid humans.</i>

398
00:22:52,956 --> 00:22:55,834

Who is gonna get scrapped?</i>

00:23:08,472 --> 00:23:10,932
this is Mensah, head of PreservationAux.

Please respond.

404

412
00:23:41,255 --> 00:23:44,174
No answer.
I think their comms must be down.

413
00:23:45,259 --> 00:23:46,426
We should go and check it out.

414
00:23:47,261 --> 00:23:50,096
We'll take SecUnit along this time. Okay?

415
00:23:50,097 --> 00:23:53,308
Sure. What could possibly go wrong?
