Previously on The Ark. His death is not your fault. I was his father.

Fix or death? If we don't fix it, they'll kill us.

I want to know how you shut down EF1. Tell me!

You will regret this.

The transfer is complete.

The server shut down because the ship went down. Before Vess or Ark 11 were

even here.

We haven't met, have we?

I'm James.

James Brace.

What?

I have to concur with Dr. Kabir's assessments. Your brain looks completely

normal. There's nothing physical that will lead to this type of targeted

memory loss.

So what are the next steps? Is there anything we can do?

We could upload Doc back into Bryce's head, try to recover the memories that

way.

It's not likely to work. I'm sorry.

You want to put it back in my head?

Have you lost your mind? Is that even safe?

I'd advise against it.

You see, the programming that created Doc may have taken Bryce's memories of

you to manipulate him into putting it back into his head.

Essentially, we'd be doing exactly what he wants us to do. Yeah, look, there's

no way Doc's getting anywhere near my brain again, okay?

Beyond that, there's not much we can do.

But all his memories of me can't just be gone, right?

Truth is, there's no way to know.

Here you go.

It's got a little bit of a kick.

Wow, look what the cat dragged in. How you doing, sis?

Good. I thought Clark's drinking.

He's just my usual.

The crater.

What can I get you?

Um, a small tissue sample from your brain.

That's good.

Well, that's not on the menu. Dr. Kabir is working on a cure to stop the Gen 3s

from turning psychotic. Having a sample from you to cross-reference with

Sharon's would be such a big help. I don't know, dear.

Am I going to end up like one of those Gen 3s on Curtis's ship?

No. She's already taken a sample from me, and it was easy.

You'll be fine.

So you think I'm the key to the cure. How flattering.

We shouldn't get ahead of ourselves. I mean, I also need a control.

A control.

Yeah, a Gen 3 G44.

Like Sharon, but one whose psychosis has kicked in. We can find one on Drake's

ship. Yeah, but you are not going back there.

What if you didn't have to?

What are you suggesting?

Well, Drake's ship ain't the only place with Gen 3s.

What about the space station in the Viridius system?

Space station?

You did what?

We were trying to help. When we went, we didn't think the cave people would hurt

us. Were you really naive enough to think that they would take down an

entire ship and not hurt you?

Clearly we were right. We're still alive.

For now.

Zed is right. It was too dangerous for you to go down there alone. They trust

us. They're obviously trying to communicate with us.

What do you mean?

Communicate how?

Ever since I came in contact with that ancient slab, I've been able to

understand their written language.

Felix, this is ridiculous.

We asked them why they kidnapped us, and John Doe wrote... this.

What does it mean?

I'm not sure.

I can't translate it, but it was etched on the stone that they were sitting

around.

One of the cave people looked kind of angry, and he got up and said something

to John Doe. They can talk.

Yeah, apparently.

I guess we just can't hear them with our ears.

And after he said whatever he said, John looked kind of irritated, and he

wrote... And he wrote, fix whatever this symbol is,

or die.

He threatened you. He threatened you, and you still claim they wouldn't hurt

you. What did he want you to fix?

Well, isn't it obvious?

It's the weapon they used to shoot down EF-1.

If it weren't broken, they would have taken our ships down, too. We don't know

that. We need to take action before they do. No! We... We don't even know that's

what they were talking about.

We can't waste any more time.

We need to arm ourselves, get down there, find the weapon. We don't have

enough information to justify that. I want justice for my son.

Really? Because it's starting to sound like you want revenge.

All done.

That's it?

You don't got a drill into my brain or anything?

Not today.

Oh, kidding.

Not ever.

How is it possible we've never heard of this space station before?

Well, it's not exactly public knowledge.

It's run by a group of Curtis's trillionaire buddies. He leaves his Gen

3s there when he's done with them. What do his friends want with Gen 3s?

I don't know, dear. You'd have to ask them. Any idea how to find it?

I was a navigator before Curtis made me his wife. I can get you those

coordinates, but you're going to need someone to get you in.

Luckily, we know a trillionaire who might have some insight.

I just can't believe they actually managed to pull it off.

Space Station wasn't part of the ARC program.

How did they get off Earth?

They financed their own private ARCs using my design.

They always had some elaborate notion about using multiple ARCs to build a

Space Station.

But I had no idea they'd actually done it.

Well, I would like to see it for myself.

Any idea how to get access?

Well, I wasn't planning on going into space today, but I have to confess, I am

curious about how my old pals actually pulled it off.

And there's no way that you're going to get in there without me.

Sharon!

I'd like to join.

We should stay here and work things out with Ava. Yeah, but that's just it.

I don't remember what it is I'm supposed to be working out.

But as far as I'm concerned, she's just... a stranger.

Can't imagine how weird that must be for you.

You may not remember, but I know you, and you'd want to.

Yeah, you could be right.

You should get back.

Oh, hey.

You be careful out there.

We need to talk.

I'm concerned about Vega.

He is still not thinking straight. Actually, he's even more unhinged. He

might do something rash.

Like what?

He wants to go down into the caves with guns to interrogate the people who live

there. Okay.

Keep an eye on him. Make sure he doesn't go off half-cocked.

Try to find this weapon?

Yeah. Based on Kelly's translations, it sounds like the weapon is broken.

Oh, that may be true, but we still need to find it. It could be dangerous, even

broken.

I feel guilty leaving right now with everything that's going on. Well, no.

This cure will save lives.

Your mission is out there. Mine is here.

See you soon? Yes.

Elias Babbage, who capitalized on the first AI rebellion on Earth.

So he's an opportunist.

Exactly.

And next is Luna Anderson.

She built a pharmaceutical empire by boosting the prices of medications.

That's despicable.

And incredibly lucrative.

And this is Anton Novice. The mining trillionaire.

Correct. Many credit him by speeding up Earth's demise by a hundred years and

losing a lot of lives in the process. Yeah, I remember that guy. He was always

in the news because he kept trying to compete in mixed fighting matches and

getting his ass kicked.

Oh, good.

Another gem.

It was him who spearheaded the construction of the space station.

You were friends with these guys?

I don't know if I'd say friends.

We had to get along to do business.

I just hope that without Earth's politics, they'll be easier to endure.

People change.

After all you did.

Looks like a mine in operation.

Makes sense.

That's how Anton made his money on Earth.

Reminds me of the time we attached the comet and took water from it.

We're more than likely doing that too.

Hail them, Kimmy.

Initiating contact.

Mr. Novus, I'm Captain Garnett of Arc One and, you know, Mr. Trust.

Anton.

It's been too long.

So many familiar faces.

Pleasure to meet you, Captain Garnett.

Go get our little toy.

Well, well, well.

Well, you haven't changed a bit.

You still look scrawny.

So I assume you came to see our space station.

Oh, you're going to love it.

Everything is top of the line here.

I assure you things are quite well advanced on the planet we've settled.

Actually, as nice as this reunion is, we do have a reason for our visit. We're

looking for a Gen 3 G44.

I had a feeling that's why you were here. As soon as I saw your face,

Captain Gannett, I knew you'd be curious about Gen 3.

Resemblance is remarkable.

Of course, in case of this one, the inside of that pretty hair is pretty

much mush.

Look, if that's how you feel, then I'm sure you won't mind if we take her off

your hands.

Well, you're welcome to come see it up close if you like, but unfortunately,

it's not for sale.

It?

For sale.

What are you doing?

Ian left me to finish analyzing the server from EF1.

So what's it telling us?

According to the data Ian recovered, it was recording up to the time of the

impact. That means all systems like artificial gravity, life support had

gone down, causing the ship to spiral and crash.

Vega thinks the people living in the cave shot it down.

When Kelly and I went back in there, we didn't see anything.

You went down there again?

Why didn't you tell me?

I really don't think they want to hurt us.

Okay. Anyway, I didn't see anything advanced enough to take down a ship that

size.

Well, the advanced tech might not be out in the open.

Or it could look totally different from ours.

My gut says it wasn't them.

It wasn't them.

What was it then?

Sorry.

I didn't mean to barge in. You don't need to apologize.

This is your home, too.

Right.

Almost forgot.

Can't really wrap my head around it.

We were in a relationship.

I was the love of your life.

I find it hard to believe I'd forget a face like yours.

Dr. Marsh thought that the pictures might jog some memories.

Come.

So,

that's us in the biodome.

We're actually on our first official date.

And, um, that one is in the mess hall.

Oh, and that's when we built the fort.

You said you couldn't wait to get to Home Bay so you can go camping.

Right.

Yeah, no, I wanted to remember what it was like to be under the stars instead

of among them. You remember?

Yeah.

No, I remember thinking that.

I don't remember any of this.

It's like there's these massive holes, you know?

Yeah, um, okay, that's enough for tonight.

I'm just gonna go to bed.

Sorry. For what?

You've seen me completely naked.

A lot.

Yeah, well, I just have to take your word for that.

I love you.

I just went through hell to get you back.

You're still not here.

I'm sorry, I just don't remember.

I'll find somewhere else to sleep tonight, okay?

Vega to Fowler.

Come to the council office.

It's urgent.

I guess he likes you.

I don't understand.

What's going on?

I had a team out on patrol.

They found him creeping around the colony. The good news is, Eva's

modifications to the generators seem to have worked.

The sound is not hurting his ears.

So let me guess.

You want me to translate?

Well, we need to know what is he doing here.

And what happened to EF-1?

I'll try.

Do that.

I'm guessing Drake wasn't just dumping Gen 3s here.

He must have been trading them to Novus in return for resources from that

asteroid. Yeah, but what does Novus want with Gen 3s?

Nothing good.

He talked about her like she was cargo.

We have to get her out of there.

We can't just store him in there and take her, though. We don't know what

we're walking into.

I agree.

Anton doesn't care about what's right and wrong. He only cares for utility and

profit.

Luckily, that means that we can negotiate.

With what?

What's in there?

A secret weapon.

Just let me do the talking.

Rusty! Rusty!

Rusty! Rusty!

Rusty! Rusty!

Rusty! Rusty! Rusty!

Rusty?

Yes, it's Anton's affectionate nickname for me. Yeah, because he was like Rust.

Makes you look worse.

And he's hard to get rid of.

Unfortunately for Anton, his nickname was Little House.

What does that mean?

That was quite straightforward, really. Anton had the smallest house.

Well, I know you're anxious to see my new Gentry toys, so... Follow me.

Toy?

Please, welcome.

Oh, dear.

I should have mentioned.

This might be a little upsetting for you, Captain Garnett.

I mean, given your family resemblance.

How long has she been in there?

Not that long.

A few weeks.

She's a human being.

Oh, really?

And I don't like her attitude.

How much is she worth to you? I told you, Rusty. It's not for sale.

This one, my friend, is for the fight.

Sorry, what fight?

Anton likes to host fights. He pits people against gentries in a fight to

the death.

It's a bloodbath.

You'll love it.

I didn't mean to upset you guys.

I know we promised we'd never do this with Jen, too, but this one in there, it

doesn't know its head from its foot. Which is exactly why she shouldn't be

fighting. It's completely inhumane. It's not at all.

We give her the best life until the last moments.

She has best food, best medical care. Why?

So you can keep her healthy until you put her in a ring to be beaten to death?

Look, if you won't sell, why don't we just let Dr. Kabir take a small sum from

her?

Just so I can further my research into the Gentries.

In return for what?

I happen to remember that you love... pinches.

Rusty, you old dog.

And there's plenty more where that came from.

Oh, I could never resist a stone fruit.

Fine, fine.

Feel free to take your samples, but I need this clone in a fighting shape by

this evening, okay?

Of course.

Dr. Kabir will just need to go to the shuttle to get her extraction kit.

Knock yourself out.

You've got to be joking. That was your big negotiation plan?

And you're just going to let this happen?

No play, Mr.

Truss.

You just got us access.

You know, I'd love a tour.

I want a chance to see if this place is all it's cracked up to be.

By all means.

It'll give us time to catch up.

You stay here and take care of this one.

She gets too rambunctious.

Take this.

Follow me, my friend.

How long do you think trust tour will last? Not long. We need to move quickly.

It's okay, sweetheart.

It's okay. It's okay.

It's okay. You're all right.

Could you hold her still, please?

I'm trying. It's okay, honey. We're not gonna hurt you.

How do we get her out of here? I'm giving her a mouth sedative.

Let's hope trust can keep Ant unoccupied.

I don't seem afraid of you.

Afraid? No.

You're just respectful.

Which makes sense.

I provide their essentials.

Food, water, roof over their heads.

All of which, of course, I control.

These resources this water that all all mine from the asteroid which allows us

to be more self-sustaining Well, I have to admit it's impressive it's exceeding

my expectations Thank You sir Coming from its high praise Mark one is very

lucky to have you Listen I

know we've been competitive over the years, but

In this new landscape, imagine how much more we could accomplish if we pooled

our resources together.

Your designs made all of this possible.

Together, we can do much more.

So you're suggesting that we become trading partners?

No.

What I'm actually suggesting is...

You might be more comfortable staying here.

So, what do you think of my taste now?

I could definitely get used to this.

He keeps saying answered and pointing to me. I guess he means he already told me

everything.

Maybe we should take a break.

We're not getting anywhere.

He keeps saying something's wrong.

That's the symbol for wrong, but I don't know what's wrong.

All right.

Try changing the subject.

Ask him about the ship.

How did they bring down EF-1?

The sun.

He's saying the sun.

The sun or sunlight brought down EF-1.

That doesn't even make sense.

Ask him again.

Where's the weapon?

Again, the sun.

Enough!

I want to know where the weapon is.

Don't yell. He doesn't know what you're saying.

Zed, you need to calm down now.

Forgive me.

Obviously, I'm in it. It's okay.

We've been doing this all night. He's already answered a lot of questions.

I think we should let him go.

No.

Not until I have answers about my son's death.

Kelly's right. We should let him go. I mean, if he feels... Threaten, or like

his beheld prisoner, he might stop talking altogether.

It's okay.

You can go.

No.

He's not going anywhere until I know where the weapon is. Let him go, Zed.

When I get the information I want.

This is ridiculous.

Kelly? Kelly!

Now I'm gonna go with our friend and make sure he gets home safely and you're

gonna stay here and calm the hell down!

I can't go any further.

Important.

Okay, fine.

Let's go.

What is that?

Kelly said it was in this direction Preliminary atmospheric analysis

indicates have no toxic environment Meaning the oxygen is getting very low

Right, so you are a brilliant science person then

I'm an engineer Engineer

It's strange how you can remember how to fly a shuttle, but you don't remember

me.

Yeah.

I guess it is.

Do you remember when Sasha taught you how to say I love you in Serbian?

Um, I think so, yeah.

And do you remember who he was teaching you to say it to?

Look, no, okay, I've told you, I don't remember.

I figured that was for you.

When approaching the coordinates Keller gave... Wait.

What the hell could have caused that?

The oxygen about five meters is too thin. They suffocated.

Okay.

I'm taking us back to base.

Look along that mountain ridge.

Does that look to you like it's kind of glowing?

Aye.

Let's check out.

Sensors are starting to pick up increased heat signatures.

It's expanding towards home base.

Oh, boy.

That can't be good.

So are these who indented servants?

No, not servants.

Employees.

Everything is above board.

How?

Well, we have a class system, of course.

These are workers in an upper class.

We have our very own currency, which functions just as well as it did on

Earth. Trust me, Mr. Trust, all my friends have lives men like us deserve.

See the appeal?

Well, if you can see the appeal, then join us, Will.

Join us. You can live like a king.

Quite tempting, isn't it? It is.

Very attractive, though.

Tell me honestly.

You can't possibly be loyal to that clone you came with.

Can you?

Well, um... Sir, we've intercepted several members of Arc One attempting

to disembark with a Gen 3.

Hold him there.

Did you know about this?

Close, though.

I think I made it clear.

I wasn't looking to sell.

And yet here you are, absconding with my property.

She's not property.

Well, I beg to differ.

She'll be very entertaining to my people later.

You can't still make her fight.

She's in no condition. She's drugged and can barely stand.

Perhaps you shouldn't have drugged her then.

The fight is scheduled for today, and she will fight.

Okay, maybe we can make a deal.

Our planet is rich in water and minerals.

Oh, is it? As I was just explaining to Mistrust here, we have everything we

need already.

Does anyone on your station need medical attention or something from our DNA

vault? Doctor, there is nothing to negotiate.

The people are expecting the clone fight.

They'll get it.

I'm a clone.

I'll do it.

Sharon, you can't.

People are expecting G44.

It has to be me.

Yeah.

I'll fight in her place.

Interesting.

I guess one goal is as good as the next.

Might make for a much more entertaining fight.

But I won't kill anyone.

I wouldn't worry about that.

And you have to let my crew in the Gen 3 go.

Agreed? If you will.

If only if you will.

You got this.

What the hell is going on?

Why is Antonia in the ring?

Guess he's not lost his passion for fighting.

She's gonna kick his ass.

I don't like this.

We're broadcasting live to everyone on the space station, so let's make this

real.

Are you sure you want to do this? Oh, sure, I'm sure.

It should be fun.

Okay. Okay.

Anton always dreamed of himself as a fighter, but he was about as good as I

am. Which is to say, not.

You're in for a surprise.

Is that the best you got?

As much as I want to hit you, we can still call this off. Oh, please.

Hit me.

Come on, hit me.

If you want.

Fine.

Let's end this.

What the bloody hell was that?

What the bloody hell was that?

You got this!

You got this!

You got this! Oh,

you didn't know?

Excuse me, everyone.

Until he's post-human.

No wonder he was so eager to fight.

Looks like he's got more organs than Kelly.

We have to do something or I'm gonna make it out alive.

Oh, she's raging.

Oh, she's mad. Come on, hit me.

Come on.

What's happening?

Get up, get up, get up, get up.

Thank you.

Go and take your gentry with you.

Just let me live.

Please. Please. You're pathetic.

I'll snap his neck.

She's bluffing. Try me.

We had a deal.

I was out to do us.

Well, by the look of things, you still are.

I thought you were joining us.

I was considering it until you reminded me who you really are.

Ian, am I right in assuming you initiated Code 34?

Bloody right. What's Code 34?

The simultaneous initiation of biological, cybernetic, and systemic

shutdown.

What the hell does that mean?

It means I didn't just turn off your implants.

I initiated critical failure.

And that means you won't be able to activate your implants ever again.

And so with that in mind, I'd like to offer everyone a choice.

Look how weak he is without his implants.

He's nothing more than a feeble liar Do

you really want to align yourself with someone like this

You had me a little scared there.

Glad you're okay.

You do realize you're the only thing holding me up? I have to confess, I

never really liked Anton. I don't think any of us did. We were just scared of

him.

Russ... Will... I'm sorry for how we backed it.

I accept your apology on one condition.

Can I count on you to keep Anton in check?

Make that two conditions.

When we're buying, selling, or fighting Gen 3s.

You have our word.

And maybe with everything changing around here, we could become trading

partners. It would be good to get some of those peaches.

We'll be in touch.

Felix, Captain Abega.

What's going on?

We saw some pretty disturbing stuff on the flyover. Thought you should know

about it. The oxygen has dropped dangerously low outside the safety zone.

Kill the shaitan of birds.

Any indication of a cause?

No, but it gets worse. We saw lava bubbling up from the ground at about 21k

mark. Seems to be moving towards home base.

Yeah, bottom line, our new home planet is going to hell.

Roger that.

Any progress on the EF1 server?

Not really.

I've been poring over this data for hours, but I feel like I'm missing

something.

The man from the underground said, the sun brought down EF1.

Does that mean anything to you?

The sun?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Look, it says magnetic field manipulation activated. How does that

relate to the sun? It might refer to solar magnetic field manipulation.

Scientists on Earth were working on using magnetic field manipulation as a

way to alter the magnetic fields on the sun to adjust its solar flare activity.

But it never worked. At least not on Earth.

Could that be what causes solar flares on Ross?

The ones that took down Art 4? It's possible.

They did have an identical cave system underground there, just like the one

here. Wait, wait, wait. I want to make sure I understand what you're saying. So

you think that someone found a way to create a weapon that generates solar

flares and directs them at a specific target?

That's exactly what I'm saying.

So we're looking for a weapon that has the ability to control the sun.
