[dramatic music playing]

[dramatic music continues]

[music intensifies]

[music fades]

[whooshing]

[hums]

[dramatic music playing]

[male voice] Congratulations, Agent,
on your first mission

for the glory of the Atopian Traxinian
Interstellar Conssociation.

You should be proud to be one
of so very few to make it this far.

This is the achievement of your life.

The Shah applauds you
for your commitment to ATIC.

[dramatic music fades]

Power to Atopia. Power to ATIC.

Power to the Shah.

Hello, Alana. Here is the scenario.

Things are a bit sketchy just now.

So you will have to pick up the details
as part of your assignment.

I'm happy to take on
anything your have for me.

[static crackling]

The ship before you was stolen
from the second moon of Cho-Hacha.

Shortly afterwards, it was used
on an assault on a freight ship.

The cargo is yet to be disclosed.

Hm, Cho-Hacha isn't an ATIC planet yet,
so they're not cooperating.

-I've read about that happening.
-Precisely.

We are in the process
of cementing our alliance with Cho-Hacha.

Some of the local authorities
have yet to comply completely.

We have no time to wait.

It seems fairly low-end
for ATIC off-world.

Normally, that would be true,

however we have reason to believe
that the ship was stolen by Mari-Huriya,

a terrorist group.

We don't know much about
their motives or membership.

We do know they originate from Cho-Hacha,

and they clearly take issue
with the authorities there.

The local police have attributed incidents
of theft and sabotage,

many of which have caused innocent deaths.

Recently, the tactical explosion
at their weapons manufacturing plant.

We believe they are planning
another attack.

I see.

The stolen ship leads to the Mari-Huriya.

And I'm guessing you found the ship.

[Agent Polo] It has been four cycles
since the ship was reported missing.

You must go alone.
We cannot raise attention.

It should be an easy mission
for someone with your skill set.

Timing is critical, the new leader
of the planet, Minister Truro,

is arriving back from an Atopian base.

We would like to see this inconvenience
gone before he lands.

It would be good for ATIC
if the Mari-Huriya threat

was eliminated before his incorporation.

[hums]

Find the assailants and arrest them before
they commit further acts of violence.

[whooshing]

[dramatic music playing]

-[rock music playing over speakers]
-[woman] No, I cannot.

Stop stalling, who was she?

-[beeps]
-I'm in.

[female computerised voice] I'm here,
Agent Toro, whenever you need me.

The thing is, I want you here.

Well, I'm here, aren't I?

[indistinct chatter]

[woman] What's your name, pal,
and mine's a double, you stingy twat.

-[man] All right. Where are you from?
-[woman] Cho-Hacha.

[man] I mean, what planet
are your parents from?

[indistinct chatter]

[man 2] Worrying is a skill
that you've perfected.

Well, I don't know why you aren't worried.

We're on the move anyway, so who cares?

I care. We've already been
bloody rerouted

waiting for this poxy man to arrive,
like anyone gives a toss.

Hm, it does sort of sound like
you give a little bit of a toss, though.

You know what I mean.

Look, I think you should think less on it.

There's not many planets left anyway.

I think you're gonna just
have to suck it up.

[woman 2] Still gonna
complain to you, so…

-Oh, damn it!
-[woman 2] Whoops.

Looks like you've chosen
the one that's out.

-Oh, whoops. Looks like I can't read.
-Don't worry.

You're not the first and you won't be
the last. Here. Let me.

Oh, you don't have to, uh…

-Not a problem.
-[liquid pouring]

-Here.
-You're freighters, right?

What gives it away?

Er, let me guess, was it my wistful,
galaxy-travelled charm?

Mm, more that you've both got the tan

of someone who spends
a lot of time passing the sun.

And yet the hands of someone who's not shy

of using a nail driver
or a pair of priers.

Oh, good knowledge.

And you? Ah, let me guess, erm…

Interstellar Sales Rep on the way
to Cho's moon

to land a hot contract
with an even hotter client.

No, sorry.

Oh.

I'm an investigator.

I was hoping you might be able to help me.

Oh, yeah.

There's a ship outside,
a grey Hanassarian freighter.

-Know whose it is?
-Nothing to do with us, I can assure you.

Oh, no, yeah,
I think that's been there a while.

Four cycles at least.

Think it was your lot that grounded it.
Think they found it empty, too.

You aren't gonna clamp
the other one too, are you?

-What other one?
-Oh, some transport ship.

Can I ask you something?
Why is it you don't do it all at once?

It takes ages to dock the buggers,

and cycles later,
they take them down to the planet.

Why do you care so much?

Do you know how good
of a docking spot that is?

I'm actually not from Cho-Hacha,
I'm ATIC off-world.

-Oh.
-And I'm looking for potential criminals.

Yeah, right.

[rock music continues playing
over speakers]

-What, so you don't know?
-[inaudible conversation]

[Alana] Do you have a problem with my job?

No. No problem with that.

Oh, you have a problem with me being ATIC.

Well, I wouldn't trust your word anyway.

Hello, I'm Alana Toro, ATIC off-world.

Have you seen…

[scoffs] Piss off.

-I'm--
-[man] I heard.

We don't know anything about this nonsense
you're trying to bother us with.

We're just minding our own business,

and I suggest you do the same.

-This is important ATIC bus--
-Oh, I don't care, leave us be.

[sighs]

[computer] Great job befriending
the locals, Agent Toro.

Idiots.

-[woman] Come on, man, that's not cool.
-[man] What are you doing?

-You're cheating, that's not fair.
-Three.

-[man] We're playing a game of threes.
-[banging table]

-[glass breaking]
-[man 2] Yes, I do, yes, I do.

[man 1] I put a lot of money on this game.
Read the rules of the game.

I know the rules of the game.
I wrote the rules of the game.

[indistinct arguing]

[woman] I've seen you cheating already
this evening.

-[man 2] What are you accusing me of?
-[woman] You've been cheating all evening.

We've got money on this.

[woman over PA] Can I have
everyone's attention, please?

I've just been informed that this area
is under strict lockdown indefinitely.

They have locked
the entrance portal remotely.

So I'm afraid you'll all have
to sit tight in the Forge

until we get clearance.

[cheering and laughing]

Come on.

Watch where you're going, Atopian.

[man] I will not!

I will not!

I will not, I will not, I will not!

I will not!

[electricity powers down]

-[electricity powers up]
-Wha-hey! [chuckles]

[sobbing]

-Hey. Hey, it's okay.
-[woman 2] What happened?

We're absolutely fine.
Don't worry about the lights, okay?

-[woman 2] It's okay.
-[woman 1] All right?

[laughing] Hey!

Watch it.

Ha! Unbelievable.

[pulsates]

[computer] Mission failed.

-Run a diagnostic on this portal.
-[computer beeps]

[computer] The device registered a search

followed by an immediate malfunction.

Is it permanently damaged?

[computer] The wave shorted the power,
but the generator will come back online

-in an estimated 12 minutes.
-No chance I'm waiting that long.

[electrical crackling]

[electrical crackling]

[portal humming]

[whooshing]

[automated voice] First floor.

-[footsteps]
-[suspenseful music playing]

Hello?

[suspenseful music continues]

[beeps]

[computer beeps] No life forms present
in this room.

[powers off]

[man 1] Obviously not. Have you
ever seen someone fire back

with a hole in their neck?

[man 2] Funnily enough, I've never seen
someone with a hole in their neck.

Have any of you called for help?

That depends. Who's asking?

-[man 2] We can't, the power's out.
-Shut up…

It's been off for a while,
I'll go check on it now. Chill out.

Hold it. You can't leave this room.

Excuse you, but who do you think
you are to tell--

Whoa! All right-- Easy.

Empty your pockets.

All of you.

I don't have anything.

-All right, stay back.
-Please, my name is Fir Jie.

I just come here, I sing my songs,
and then I go home.

Please, take whatever you want,
anything you need.

-Hey, you don't have to kill us two.
-Shut up.

-You shut up.
-I don't think it was her.

These are bullet wounds,
they didn't come from an SAP.

She hasn't emptied her pockets.

I'm ATIC, off-world.

-Oh, thank Shah you're here.
-Oh, great.

He's just one of these idiots
who doesn't understand ATIC.

There's a lot of them
going round apparently.

No, I'm just very aware
of what they're capable of.

Oh… my name's Wissang.

Honestly, it's such a pleasure
to meet a real-life ATIC agent.

What, ATIC doesn't bother either of you?

Oh, no. No, no, course not, I voted
for Minister Truro to get us into ATIC.

Power be to ATIC, power be to the Atopia.

Power to the Shah.

To Shah… I'm from Hanassa.

It's part of ATIC.

I think she already knows that.

Were they already dead
when you arrived in the room?

Did you see who did this?

But you saw them die.

She had already passed,

and I was here
when he took his last breath.

I tried to save him, but…

Whoever did this was already gone.

Where did you come in from?

Making a call next door.

I was in the bog,
draining the jacka-walla.

Yeah, before that.

Next door. The, er… other next door.

What in that empty room?

Yeah. [chuckles]
I was with a friend, you know?

-In a bog.
-Yes, well it was empty anyway, so why?

[suspenseful music playing]

Oh, this is so crazy, man.

[Wissang] Oh, maybe he's married,
and they were caught in the act.

Maybe you should keep your thoughts
inside of your head.

Feels like he and the killer
didn't like each other, and she was extra.

How do you know?

These two wounds are close together, which
means they were fired in quick succession.

Maybe he was targeted
or it could have been in anger.

Hers could even have been an accident.

Ah, looks like the big guy
took a stimulant.

If anyone were to pick a fight
with him, it'd get heated pretty quickly.

You're a whole constellation from home.

[tense music playing]

I'm a long-distance freighter.

Yeah, yet you stop at a bar whose regulars
just travel round the planet.

[man] What's your point?

It's unusual is my point.
Hanging round a bar

-when you've got freight going cold.
-Mm…

[Alana] My guess is this was
a personal pit stop.

A long overdue visit?

[suspenseful music playing]

Okay.

Is that why you were arguing downstairs?

That's none of your business.

You were angry.
Angry enough to smash a glass.

You come up here pissed off,
get into another argument with this guy--

And murder two people,
are you fucking crazy?

I tried to save him.

What, after the red mist cleared?

Fuck you!

Listen… I know what it's like
on these long trips.

[laughs softly] Without your loved ones.

Alone or worse, stuck on a ship
with some shugpuggers.

And then you finally get
some time away from the grind,

and you just want to relax,
be with your partner.

[laughs softly] But instead,
you get criticism. You get nagged at.

You get an ultimatum.

It builds, and it builds, and it builds,

-until sma--
-[man] You need to back off!

Right now.

Or what?

Mm, whoa…

[suspenseful music playing]

No. No, you're not gonna pin this on me.

Seem to me like you're our best candidate.

No… No, fuck you.

Fuck you, I won't let you-- Look out!

[static crackling]

[man] Oh, some transport ship.

[indistinct yelling]

[man 2] Can I tell you something?

-[whooshing]
-[man] Want to give me a chance.

[woman] No, I do not. Stop stalling.
Deal with shit.

[man 2] I wouldn't if I was you.

[man 3] But I'm here, aren't I?

[woman 2] What's your name, pal,
and mine's a double, you stingy twat.

[rock music playing over speakers]

-[man 4] Where are you from?
-[woman 3] Cho-Hacha.

No, I mean what planet
are your parents from?

Ew…

[man 5] It's ATIC, I promise.

It got worse and worse
when the sympathisers took over.

We have to stop it before it's too late,
we know where this is going.

What else can we do? Like, it's beyond us.

It's just messed up.

I have a plan.

You're not going to like it,
but we have no choice.

I think she's listening to us.

Can we help you?

Er, with what?

-You just don't get it, do you?
-Course I don't get it.

-Okay, then why don't you--
-[yells]

[glass breaks]

[woman over PA] Can I have
everyone's attention, please?

I've just been informed
that this area

is under strict lockdown indefinitely.

They have locked
the entrance portal remotely.

So I'm afraid you'll all have
to sit tight in the Forge

until we get clearance.

-Wha-hey-hey. Come on.
-[cheering]

[man] Excuse me, do you know how dangerous
the current government is

because we've got a plan
to try and stop them, so…

Yeah, I know, but trust me,
there's nothing you can do.

Don't get me wrong.
I'm as pissed off as the next fellow.

But this… I don't know.

Right, if everyone on the planet
thinks this way,

then yes, we have to put up with
whatever Minister Truro wants to do.

But if we all come together,
we can make a change.

We don't have to settle.

These governments and empires,
they come and go,

but we're still here.

[man 2] Yes, we've never seen
anything like this happen on Cho.

-[woman] I know, but you just--
-Oh, screw it.

-Give it here, kid. Go on.
-Amazing.

So the position is two-fold.

First, we want the new minister
to keep all fuelling

to a maximum of 12 charks per cycle.

[computer] Mission status pending.

Hey!

Shit!… Reset!

[man] Want to give me a chance…

[dramatic music playing]

[whooshing]

Hm.

The power's on.

Light's always broken.

[man] So, I'm thinking
I need to improve my toolkit

because this is just disastrous, you know?

Did you even wash that?

-What do you mean, of course. [sniffs]
-Doesn't look like you washed it.

[woman] You stink.
I have to stand next to you.

[man] Well, I'll wash it tonight,
I'll wash it tonight.

[woman] You need to think
about me next time.

-[man] I think it's--
-[woman] Stuck in a loop.

Hello.

What do you want?

Just the two of you?

What's it to you?

You couldn't have made them
less stereotypical?

What the fuck?

I've always wondered
what this place was like.

You know these long journeys,
you go port to port,

never stopping.

Nice to get out.

Stretch your legs,
have a chat to some strangers.

Chat to someone else.

[Alana] Uh-uh, no.

Do you two travel far?

-[sighs]
-[sniffs]

Okay, looks like that's all
I'm getting out of you.

So, they come from there.

You two look like you're not moving
anytime soon with all that luggage.

Seems like a perfect match to me.

-Whoa!
-Er, don't move.

Hand out your pockets.

[scoffs] Well, which one is it?

Don't be a dick, just do it. Slowly.

Any more of you?

[sucks teeth] Erm…

What are you doing, or about to do?

That door cracker, that's to break into
the engine room, right?

And the other tools to shut down the bar?

You were planning to sabotage the bar.

Uh-uh! Burner, down!

Er, really. Nothing.

Listen, you two unhelpful chugpuggers,

this is my one chance at promotion,

and if you mess it up for me,
and I have to work the rest of my life

on a desk job on a Traxinian moon,
then I swear to the Shah

I'm going to boot this programme
once a day

just so I can shoot you on my lunch break.

[laughs] What?

Help me, Shah. I expected the Mari-Huriya
to be a bit more preachy than this.

[woman over PA] Can I have
everyone's attention, please?

-Okay, at least we're here.
-[woman] I've just been informed

that this area
is under strict lockdown indefinitely.

They have locked
the entrance portal remotely.

So I'm afraid you'll all have
to sit tight in the Forge

until we get clearance.

-Okay, so we just wait for--
-Any of you guys waiting for the, er--

-[dramatic music]
-[zapping]

[grunts]

Shit.

The burners have been shorted
by whatever's shutting down the power.

-[yells]
-Wait! I got it wrong! Just--

-[yells]
-[zapping]

[man yells]

[dramatic music playing]

[cries in pain]

Freeze! Atopian off-world, don't move!

You're ATIC? You can't arrest us,
we ain't done shit.

"Arrest us"? You're with them?

Oh, Shah, okay, I get it.

Listen, you're in danger.
Someone is going to attack you.

-Yeah, you.
-[Alana] No, not me.

Look, I messed up,
I messed up a lot in fact.

But someone will attack you,
I don't know who, but--

[flesh squelches]

[dramatic music plays]

-[whooshing]
-[man] Give me a chance…

[Agent Polo] You've learnt from
your mistakes in the first three attempts.

You should now find the completion
of this assessment simple.

Show us you have what it takes
to be an ATIC special agent.

-[woman] Did he contact you?
-[man] No, nothing.

Oh, come on! Come on.

[woman over PA] Can I have
everyone's attention, please?

I've just been informed

that this area
is under strict lockdown indefinitely.

They have locked
the entrance portal remotely.

So I'm afraid you'll all have to sit tight
in the Forge

-until we get clearance.
-We'll call Sala from up there.

Yeah, [indistinct] I'm coming, all right.
I'm just gonna go drain the jacka-walla.

[chuckles]

-[tuts]
-[computer chimes]

[computer] The key to a successful
operation is patience, Agent Toro.

Yeah, I know, Mum, but I love him.

Yeah.

Yeah, I get you.

[whooshing]

[powering down]

Oh, Shah!

[computer] Floor Two portal
is not powered.

[Fir Jie] You idiot, it's broken.

[man] He's just choosing a song.

Oh, relax. I'll find out what's going on.

[Fir Jie] I can't believe this.

You're so dramatic.

Hello.

Erm, it's broken, so…

What is?

The Karka machine. It's gone haywire.

It's not even free.

It's not broken,
the power in this whole place is.

-Oh, great. Even better.
-I told you.

No booze for the drunk drivers then?

The backup generator's working,

but it seems like all it's doing
is letting us breathe and drink.

Smart. [chuckles]

Are you trying
to power it up with your finger?

[chuckles]

What are you all doing in here?

Well, if you leave the room,
he'll delete your name from the machine.

-So…
-Huh.

If you don't want to take part,
then just don't join the queue.

Oh, and the bar up here's empty,
so we're all stocking up while we can.

[Alana] Smart.

You don't strike me
as long-haul freighters.

I could be.

I just leave the dirty work
to my capable team.

Oh, so you must be the pilot.

-Exactly.
-Of an automated ship.

[snickers]

Exactly.

I will do it.

Listen, I will do it.

You are making it worse.

-They're great company.
-[Alana chuckles]

[Fir Jie] Guys, I just want to say

this is absolutely fantastic
that's happening here,

but why the freak
are we stood here like idiots?

Er, 'cause we were doing an absolutely
amazing job before the power went out.

[computer] Mission status pending.

Er, you know what? I'll go.

You stay here and I'll come back.

Finally.

-[man] Why couldn't you go?
-She offered.

[man] Whatever.

So what now?

A capella?

[all laughing]

Absolutely not.

[computer] Mission failed.

What happened?

[panting] I don't know.

Shit.

Help me, will you?

Yeah, but I haven't washed my hands.

Here she is.

I told you to stay put.

Excuse you, who do you think you're…

My word.

-Kalis! What are you doing, help him.
-Is he…

I tried.

[man] I already…

It's too late.

Wha-- What happened?

I found him on the ground,
and I don't know, he just--

[Fir Jie] Somebody shot him.

Well, maybe it was an accident.

Obviously not.

Have you ever seen somebody
shoot themselves in the neck,

and then dispose of the weapon themselves?

Funny enough, I've never seen
someone with a hole in their neck!

How did you know him?

Didn't you just say his name?

Well, who's Kalis?

[Fir Jie] That's just what us
Cho-Hachans say.

It's another word for the Atopian Shah.

It means total arse--
-[stutters] Watch your mouth!

Oh, here we go.

Yeah, here we do go
because you don't speak for all of us.

[Fir Jie] Yes, I'm very aware.
I'm also aware

that people on our planet
can't even string a sentence together,

-let alone think for themselves.
-Yeah, hm? Yeah, hm?

-Fuck you!
-Perfect exhibit right there.

What are you talking about?

Somebody's been murdered.

We have to do something.

-Where are you going?
-To stop this.

-[whooshing]
-[man] Give me a chance…

[rock music playing over speakers]

[indistinct chatter]

[whooshing]

-[chiming]
-[computer] Mission status pending.

-We'll call Sala from up there.
-Mm.

-[whooshing]
-Sala.

[Wissang] You are!
Yeah, you are one naughty girl.

-I'm coming, I'm coming, aren't I?
-Stop.

I'll meet you down there.
I'm gonna go and go drain the jacka-walla.

[whooshing]

-[whooshing]
-[automated voice] First floor.

Sala. You're in danger.

Someone's coming for you.

No, really, someone's looking for you.

I don't know who they are yet,
but they're coming.

I don't know what the fuck
you're talking about

-but stay the fuck away from me, yeah?
-[powers down]

Listen, you prick, I'm here to help you
and the others.

-What, you're on the job?
-Yeah, the job.

I love the job, one of the best.

-All right, where are the others then?
-They're… running late.

[laughs] You're full of shit.

Where are you from?

[zaps]

[gasps]

Oh, fuck.

-[beeps]
-[computer] Mission failed.

Wait! What-- How is that a failure?

You what?

[Agent Polo] You assaulted someone
without cause.

But he's a murderer.
He's the Mari-Huriya terrorist.

What's going on?

-She's crazy.
-I just saved your life.

Like really fucking crazy.

[Agent Polo] He's done nothing as far
as you can see during this attempt.

Kalis. What happened?

-This bitch…
-Oh, just shut it down.

[powers down]

I saw a threat with a weapon.

The weapon that killed Sala and Issy.

[zaps]

It has to be, it's him!

[Agent Polo]
That is insufficient evidence.

How?

[Agent Polo] You have seen no crimes
committed in the present,

nor did you try to apprehend the subject.

You must attempt to prevent crime,
but you cannot predict it.

Follow the ATIC Agency official standards.

[scoffs] Since when do
off-world agents follow the book?

[Agent Polo] Unless you can predict
the future in reality,

you must follow this to the letter
during this assessment.

When you're in the field,
this may require creative leniency.

So… solve the simulated scenario

while pretending it's a real-world arrest.

Maybe there's a specific solution
like a logic puzzle.

Or it's like a game and there's
a finite number of outcomes.

I just need to gather more information
and I'll have it.

Okay. Reset.

[woman] No, I do not.

[indistinct chatter]

[man] I wouldn't do that if I was you.

[laughter]

[suspenseful music playing]

They go that way, she goes that way.

So…

[woman laughing]

-[chimes]
-[man laughing]

[computer] Two lifeforms
present in this room.

Hey.

Shit.

Get out.

-[giggling]
-We, erm… [clears throat]

…fell over.

[device chimes]

[computer] This room has been reconfigured
as a CX250 holosuite.

Currently non-functional.

The assailant came out of a holoroom.

Or… at least a room
that used to be a holoroom.

-They've taken out the shimmerer.
-[chimes]

[computer] Yes, Agent Toro.

As I said, currently non-functional.

So where are you hiding?

[suspenseful music playing]

[suspenseful music continues]

[suspenseful music continues]

[rumbling]

[computer] Great spot, Agent Toro.

Your attention to detail is commendable.

Whoa. Ugh!

-[rumbling]
-[door slams]

[clanking]

[ominous music playing]

[suspenseful music playing]

-Where are you from?
-[gasps]

[dramatic music playing]

[static crackling]

[man] Stay the fuck away from me.

[Alana] How did you know him?

[man 2] Where are you from?

[Alana] So you must be the pilot.
Of an automated ship.

[Agent Polo] Show us you have what
it takes to be an ATIC special agent.

[Wissang] Sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh-sh.

He comes from up there.

But… I don't witness it's pass.

-Sh-sh-sh!. Shh!
-[chuckles]

Behind the wall. Someone's there.

[sighs]

I'll just have to wait.

[Wissang] It's fine. Chill out, all right.
I don't think she saw us.

Ah, but what if--

[woman over PA] Can I have everyone's

-attention please?
-Shit!

I've just been informed that this area

is under strict lockdown indefinitely.

They have locked
the entrance portal remotely.

So I'm afraid you'll all have to sit tight
in the Forge

-until we get clearance.
-We'll call Sala from up there.

[whooshing]

-[girl meowing]
-You are one lucky girl, all right.

I'm coming, I'm coming,
I've just got to drain the jacka-walla.

[computer] The key to a successful

[suspenseful music playing]

Hey, have you seen
the manager by any chance?

The Karkarim
in the portal have gone haywire.

Wait, stay there.

Wha… are you okay, what's happened?

Please, just wait.

[man] Where are you from?

Back off.

Where are you from?

I think he's had something
you can't get in the bar.

-Do you worship the Shah?
-Do I worship the Shah?

-No.
-That's what this is about.

Are you okay?

-Easy.
-Keep your eyes on me, just relax, please.

Issy, get back.

Drop the weapon.

-What the fuck do you want?
-Where are you from?

-What?
-Do you worship the Shah?

Whatever's troubling you,
we can talk about it, please just relax.

Issy, move out of the way.

Look, man, I'm on your side.

-Do you worship the Shah?
-Yes!

Atopian scum.

Oh, shit! [grunts]

[dramatic music playing]

Get off him!

[gasps]

[grunts]

[grunts]

[grunts]

[Agent Polo] Do you need a break?

[powers down]

No, I'm-- I'm fine.

[Agent Polo] Do not forget
your progression

through each run of the programme

is the most important factor,
and you have 13 more attempts.

That is many more than you should need.

I understand.

[Agent Polo] Do you want to continue?

Of course. I'll finish this.

I have to finish this.

Reset.

I guess so.

Okay. Okay, okay, what do we know?

A killer, who we can't arrest,

despite them being
a murdering fucking terrorist,

has something against the Shah.

Wants to kill these two.

But I can't save them both like this,

and I can't get there before--
Oh, It's impossible.

Okay, no, come on, what else?

Why were you three meeting here?

-Who?
-What were you planning?

No idea what the fuck
you're talking about.

Holy Shah. You know this guy
was trying to kill you.

You don't think it has something to do
with what you've done

or were about to do.

No chance. Nobody knows.

-[groaning]
-We're not wasting anymore time.

All right, oh, shit!

We're planning a lifting job.

You're thieves?

Stealing what?

[sighs] Fuck's sake.

You know that port outside of Cho?

The one between the moons.

There's a cargo ship that's going to be
filling up while it's grounded.

They're halting all flights in the area

while that new minister travels down
to the planet, so… we're hitting it.

Using the minister's convoy as cover.

Pirates. You're fucking pirates.

That's why you had the door cracker.

-[Sala] Wait. Fuck.
-What?

-Yimmer knows.
-Who?

The bar manager.

We're working with her.
She double-crossed us, that sneaky bitch.

-Er, she hasn't.
-Well, the other wouldn't.

No one did,
this guy isn't killing you for your job.

[Sala] Yeah, but you said…

-[whooshing]
-[man] Give me a chance.

[dramatic music playing]

[whooshing]

[dramatic music continues]

[woman over PA] They have locked

-[Alana] Hi, Sala.

-…until we get clearance.
-Don't remember me, do you?

Look, if we fucked, it's over.

If I owe you money, go fuck yourself.

-So you are always a massive prick.
-The fuck do you want?

[Alana] Sit down.

Fuck you.

Oh, this guy! Look, I'm on the job.

I'm the door cracker.

Where's Goro?

He's around, he's just going
to focus on crowd control.

-All right, where is he, then?
-I said I'd come and collect you.

-They're running late.
-They never said anything about nothing.

No, well they never mentioned you
to me either, but here we are.

So they just surprised us both,
why would they do that?

Why don't we ask them
in five minutes' time? Sit down!.

You're full of shit.

Yeah, and I just saved your life.

Not that you deserve it.

[powers down then up]

[Alana] Yeah, I wouldn't bother.
You won't get through there.

-Look, man, I'm on your side.
-Do you worship the Shah?

Yes.

Atopian scum.

Hey! Drop it.

I said drop it.

This is the end for you all.

[Alana] You okay?

I got a fucking hole in me,
what do you think?

-Yeah, fair enough.
-[computer] Mission status pending.

[Alana] Still not over.

[computer] Mission failed.

How? I did it!

[man] Somebody help!

You're all right. You're all right.
Stay with me.

What happened?

-Help!
-Yeah, erm…

I'm just gonna wash my hands.

[man] Help us.

[Alana] Everyone's here.

We need help.

[man] Help!

[suspenseful music playing]

Ew…

[suspenseful music continues]

Oh, Shah! Ooh…

Oh…

A pilot of the other
abandoned ship I presume.

Maybe it was the getaway vehicle?

[suspenseful music continues]

[suspenseful music continues]

So this is it.

It's like a super-powered copper.

[Agent Polo] Explain aloud, Alana.

Er, it's a device
for shorting electric machinery.

But this is heavy tech.

Still don't understand
why they'd attack this place.

This is military grade.

[sighs]

-[sighs] At the rate I'm going…
-[computer] Mission failed.

[computer] Your location
is second floor hallway.

Who in Shah's name are you?

[dramatic music playing]

[static crackling]

[man] Do you worship the Shah?

[Alana] Pirates. You're fucking pirates.

What are you doing?

Or about to do?

Look, man, I'm on your side.

[Alana] A pilot
of the other abandoned ship.

Er, it's a device
for shorting electric machinery.

This is the end for you all!

[whooshing]

[automated voice] Second floor.

-[knocking on door]
-[woman] What?

Huh, I should've come here first.

You can't be in here. What do you want?

Whoa, whoa, whoa! What you doing?

[Alana] Where are they?

-Where are who?
-Oh, where's the holoroom?

Oh, it's broke.

No, no, there's some people in it,
a couple.

Whatever. They can't break out
what's broke.

Now, bugger off.

What about the room behind?

[sighs] What room?

You've been in the blooming
maintenance room.

What the Shah do you think
you're doing, you mad twat?

Listen, I have reason to believe
there are terrorists here

-waiting…
-Ooh, hold on, wait, wait, wait.

What the fuck is going on today?

I don't have time for this,
just answer me.

No, just shut up a minute.

[beeps]

Can I have everyone's attention, please?

I've just been informed that this area

is under strict lockdown indefinitely.

Oh, Shah, already. It happens too quickly.

Be quiet.

They have locked
the entrance portal remotely.

So I'm afraid you'll all have
to sit tight in the Forge

until we get clearance.

I don't give a damn who you are.

But you will not interrupt me
when I'm making my announcements, okay?

Do you understand?

-I don't get it.
-No, no, no.

Don't sit down.

-Get out!
-[powers down then up]

How can I possibly do this?

If she comes up here,
and he's down there…

[man] Yimmer!

We need to talk.

I need to get a lock on that bastard.

We need to get out of here.

[inhales] We're locked in.
Things have changed.

Listen, arsehole.

We've got business to take care of.

One that you stand to gain from,
don't forget.

It's out of my control.

They've already taken
the bastard shimmerer.

Well, you'll get that back
with the money we--

Ede, wait.

What?

Who's that?

Just a civilian. Nothing more.

Probably always will be.

Well then, get out.

No, just talk, I don't care.

No! Don't talk.

-Get out all of you.
-Oh, we don't have time for this.

[scoffs]

[laughing]

Ah…

You little prick.

[laughs]

[clears throat] We are getting off
this station in the next 15.

We're locked in. I've told you.

You don't understand.

We are getting out of here.

It's up to you
how we go about pressing that button.

Sorry, ooh-- What button?

There is no button.

Are you deaf?

[keys clacking]

It's broken.

No.

It's pointless.

-[grunts]
-Oh!

[groans]

-[man] Ede, quick!
-[woman groans]

Yeah, I wouldn't bother.

-[grunts]
-Oh!

They shorted the power with a popper.

We're just lucky
it's not shutting down our airflow.

It can't.

It can't?

This is really interesting.

Basically, the power…

Holy Shah-- I don't give a shit!

The convoy will be here any minute.

If we miss it, we'll have no cover,
and then we're fucked!

Do you understand what that means?

Yeah.

And I don't care.

Just open it, you fuck.

[man] She's right.

Nothing's working.
But the backup power's on.

[Yimmer] The backup power
will give you two things.

Air…

and booze.

Well, that's fantastic, isn't it?

What is wrong with you?

Oh…

Priorities.

-Huh! Get out of here.
-Help me, I'm being assaulted.

-Who do you worship?
-[man] What?

Amazing. More idiots.

As if I can't get enough.

Do you worship the Shah?

-I know you do.
-Listen, love, it's…

-You freak!
-Ede!

[dramatic music playing]

Okay, I get it. Reset!

[whooshing]

[automated voice] Second floor.

[woman] We cannot get to Truro.

They've overwritten the system.

We'll never make the jump in time.

[man] Bastards!

How is this happening?

That puppet needs to die,

and I need to be the one who does it.

-It's not what we want!
-[grunts]

But we can still make a difference here.

We can purge this place.

-But he needs to die.
-And he will!

He will.

In the meantime, we will send a message.

One they can no longer ignore.

[man laughs] Yes.

[inhales] Yes, you're right.

They will pay the price.

We have everything we need right here.

We'll make sure no ATIC scum can stop us.

Let's end this.

For us.

For us.

[both grunting]

[gasps then exhales]

[breathing heavily]

[powers down then up]

Listen.

This is not the way, I can help. Wait!

[Alana] It's as I thought.

I couldn't for the life of me understand

why they'd attack this back-dust bar.

Especially as they clearly have a vendetta
against the Shah, against ATIC.

There's no doubt they're unstable
anti-ATIC extremists.

So why attack a bar
that's orbiting a planet,

that's yet to even be a member?

Because they were trapped here.

This is a backup plan,
if it was ever part of the plan at all.

You aren't gonna clamp
the other one too, are you?

-What other one?
-Oh, some transport ship.

[Alana] They were planning to board
the dead pilot's freighter,

and then use the popper to fragment
the barriers of Minister Truro's ship

and assault it, or drive straight into it.

Killing him before
he ever reached Cho-Hacha.

[Agent Polo] Good.

But the problem is that they're circuited
to focus or to numb themselves.

I need to find a way to get through
the mayhem in their minds

-and help them understand that…
-[Agent Polo] That is not important.

What isn't?

[Agent Polo] They cannot
have their minds changed.

What, so they're just husks?

Why?

I thought the whole point was to replicate
a real-life situation.

[Agent Polo] Those who are against ATIC
have made their choice.

They have sentenced themselves.

Reason is not in their nature.

This is your only chance of becoming
a full ATIC off-world agent.

Is this how you want to spend
your last few attempts?

Oh, I get it.

I understand.

This was designed to get in my head.

[Agent Polo] There is no design.

This scenario is based entirely
on a real incident.

-But…
-With every possible outcome simulated

based on data we have
on the individuals involved,

but their behaviours
and this event are real.

But these people, these deaths are real.

-What are you trying to do?
-[Agent Polo] You already know.

We are assessing your learned skills.

Your deduction and combat,
and your loyalty.

Loyalty?

[Agent Polo] Yes.

Loyalty to ATIC
and to its devoted citizens.

Wait, is this why her dying wasn't a fail?

My wristband never went red.

Is this why Issy can die?

[Agent Polo]
She is an enemy of the state.

[dramatic music playing]

She is expendable.

What? Why?

Because she called the Shah a name?

-[Agent Polo] Alana.
-No, I won't do it.

I'll save everyone.

I will. Reset.

Reset!

[man] Give me a chance.

[rock music playing over speakers]

[whooshing]

[footsteps approaching]

This is going to sound insane,

but someone is going to attack you.

Is that a fucking threat?

I'm here to help.

Stay the fuck away from me.

[suspenseful music playing]

[shatters]

[powers off and on]

Where are you from?

I am Atopian and I fucking love the Shah.

[woman] Stop stalling.

[man 1] What?

[man 2] Do you worship the Shah?

[man 1] Look, man, I'm on your side.

[man 2] Do you worship the Shah?

[man 1] Yes.

[man 2] Atopian scum.

[man 1] No, no. No.

[man 1] No. No.

Hey! What are you doing?

[whooshing]

-[grunts]
-[all screaming]

[screaming]

[screaming]

[Agent Polo] Are you ready to reset?

You have two more attempts.

I don't know what you want.

[Agent Polo] We want you
to complete the mission.

You know the solution.

There's no way
this can possibly be solved.

It's unrealistic.

[Agent Polo] You know the solution.

He's on one floor
and she's on the other floor.

I can't be in two places at the same time.

[Agent Polo] There is one element
you haven't tried again.

It's clear to us, you know you haven't.

I won't.

I need to understand
why they're doing this.

[Agent Polo] You know why.

No.

I can help them.

There must be a reason that
they feel this way, I can….

[Agent Polo] That is not your mission.

Yes, it is.

How is it not?

How is it not?

Answer me!

So that's it. Anyone who so much as
speaks ill of ATIC,

or the Shah, or Atopia,
is worthy of death?

All she's done is try to help every time.

Oh, this is insane.
I can't get there quickly enough.

[Agent Polo]
We know you have the solution.

We need to see it.

I can't.

[Agent Polo] Show us your loyalty, Alana.

Power to Atopia.

Power to ATIC.

-[whooshing]
-[man] Wanna give me a chance?

No, I do not. Stop stalling.
Deal with shit.

[indistinct chatter]

I wouldn't if I were you.

It's your round, pal.
And mine's a double, you stingy twat.

[pensive music playing]

-No. Where are you from?
-Cho-Hacha.

No, I mean what planet
are your parents from?

Ew.

-[man] You're cheating.
-You keep cheating, that's not fair.

No, you can't be doing like that. Come on.

We'll play you again. We'll play again.

-[man 2] You just don't get it, do you?
-Of course I don't get it.

Okay. Well then, let me explain.
Stop interrupting.

-You said you could hear.
-I can't get a sentence out.

-Sentence out.
-Oh, Shah, come on.

[pensive music continues]

[indistinct chatter]

[door opens]

[woman] Relax,
I'll find out what's going on.

[door closes]

[gasps then laughs] You made me jump.

Have you seen the manager by any chance?
The Karka machine's gone haywire.

Why do hate ATIC?

-What?
-I heard you say Kalis.

-When?
-I just need to know.

Please, I just need to hear it from you.

Do you support them?

I don't know.

-[Agent Polo] Alana.
-Well, you shouldn't.

Why?

[Agent Polo] You are wasting vital time.

They've hurt you, haven't they?

You're not the only one. The Shah squeezes
every planet he conquers.

[scoffs] Those planets are joining
the Conssociation.

I've travelled to Recivia.
And the Moss cities on Balos.

They're beautiful planets
and amazing people, and they're all dying.

[Agent Polo] You only have
two attempts remaining, Alana.

Sometimes you have notice pain
until it's gone.

We need to make sure that everyone
feels it before it's too late.

How are you going to do that.

[Agent Polo]
You know what happens if you fail.

Look, I'm… [chuckles] I'm not just here
to get drunk and sing Hachan pop songs.

I’m here to meet
the new head of my organisation.

We're defending out planet.

Have you heard of the Mari-Huriya?

[suspenseful music playing]

You're Mari-Huriya? The terrorists?

What? No! No, no, we're doing everything
we can to save lives, not take them.

They're the aggressors.

They're the ones who destroyed the weapons
factory 10 cycles before Cho-Hacha

voted to join ATIC.

[chimes]

[explosion]

[scoffs] They said it was you.

Of course they did.

Stopping ATIC's occupation is the fight.

And we need to do everything we can
to make it right.

[Agent Polo] You know where you'll have
to go if we can't trust you.

Even if it costs you everything?

Whatever it takes.

We can stand up to ATIC.

-[man] Wanna give me a chance.
-[woman] No, I do not.

Stop stalling. Deal with shit.

Power to the Shah.

Over to you, Issy. I'll be upstairs
dealing with the other one.

[powers down]

[suspenseful music playing]

-[banging on door]
-[Sala] Oi!

Is there anyone out there, we're stuck.

-[man 2] Idiot, it's broken.
-Relax. I'll find out what's going on.

[suspenseful music continues]

What the fuck.

[banging on door]

Hey, have you seen
the manager by any chance?

The Karka machine's gone haywire.

Do you worship the Shah?

Answer me!

[breathing nervously]

Look, I'd love to, but I'm scared
of what you might say if I do.

-Get out of here?
-[woman] Do you worship the Shah?

I know you do.

Help me, I'm being assaulted.

[yells]

No. I don't.

-Oi, is anyone out there, we're stuck.
-Stay with me, talk to me.

Look, I don't care if you worship him.

Oi, is anyone out there? We're stuck.

[suspenseful music playing]

Look, we're just people, Let's just talk.

Can you open the fucking door?

Door's fucked.

-[banging on door]
-Where are you from?

Oi, open the door,
this isn't fucking funny.

Do you worship the Shah?

[Sala] This isn't funny.

[ma] We know you have the solution.
We need to see it.

Do you worship the Shah?

Yes! Now, let me out, you prick!

He has a weapon! [grunts]

[Agent Polo] She is an enemy of the state.

Show us your loyalty, Alana.

-[dramatic music playing]
-Fuck!

Shit, what was that?

[Issy gasping]

[gasping]

[dramatic music continues]

Fuck this, I'm finding another way out.

[Alana] Hey!

[music fades]

-[chimes]
-[computer] Mission complete.

[male voice] Congratulation, Agent.

You have successfully passed
the practical exam.

Welcome to the team.

Please collect your badge.
