(adventurous orchestra music)

(cheering)

All the angelos are singing, they are singing to you.

Bless me and hit me.

(beeping)

MACHINE: 22 house wins.

Do you wish to play again?

Well I thought it was a sure thing.

Better go and get Minatkin's money.

I know he doesn't like to be kept waiting.

You're debt has been bought.

Bought.

Are you kidding me?

By who?

Come with us.

Yeah, sure, why not?

Let's go and meet out mysterious benefactor.

(futuristic music)

DANTE: I'm a bounty hunter,

but it's just something that I do.

I'm really looking for something

that was stolen from me.

Ten years ago they took my son.

As I search there are signs

that something is happening.

That humanity's about to change.

But I won't be distracted.

How do you find one small boy

in a lawless universe?

I'm not sure, but I have to keep trying.

You're in the company of countless heroes,

unrecognized, of course, but heroic nonetheless.

So you paid my heroic debt?

They didn't tell me it was a lady,

and an attractive one on top of it.

A compound I'm working on could

help develop human evolution.

That's great doc, but what does

that all have to do with me?

(puff-click)

Hey.

My subjects, so far,

died

within 48 hours of the injection.

What?

It's what happens in those 48 hours

that interests me.

Some kind of a sick joke.

(whack)

(gun shot)

(whack)

Give me the antidote.

[Female Scientist] There isn't one.

You're a liar.

(alarms blare)

(gun shot)

(alarms blare)

(gunfire)

(gunshots)

(bullets zing on metal)

(control panels beeps)

(ship engines roar to life)

(dramatic music)

Oh, you shoulda seen this tasty

little bedside snack, Montana.

She was a vision in black lace.

And then the feasting really began!

Now this job's gonna be easy,

even for the likes of you.

Fugitive murderer, goes by the name of Eric.

A janitor on Saturn Outpost 359.

Two counts of first degree murder,

theft of SO-359 property,

that being a transport pod.

Now the pod he stole has a

tracking device on board,

so this should be very easy.

They'll pay top dollar

to get him back alive

in the next 48 hours.

And you just happen to be in the vicinity.

(beeping in cabin)

Oh my god, I don't believe it.

Problem?

My ex-husband.

You married?

Come on.

Probably the first and last

impulsive thing I ever did.

I can't believe you were married.

I mean, that's, you know.

Was married.

Been divorced over five years now.

Tell me, was he always the criminal type?

(laughs)

You find all this funny, don't you?

Absolutely not.

Two counts of first degree murder's

nothing to joke about.

I just hope you remember where

your responsibilities lie

when when we pick him up.

Oh sir, yes sir, I will always be

loyal to the Tulip sir, yes sir!

(electronic door whooshes open)

I love it when she gets that mad.

(electronic door whooshes shut)

(laughs)

(ominous music)

(slow sentimental music)

(romantic music)

Messed up real good

this time didn't you?

(ship's engine rumbles)

I think it will hold.

Just making sure everything's ready.

Dante?

Look, I just want you to

know that this mission

is no different for me than any other.

I won't let you down.

Were you surprised we're

picking him up for murder?

Do you want me to tell you

that I married a bad guy?

I have no opinion, Luc.

Yeah, like hell you don't.

Come on, come on, anybody out there?

There's gotta be something.

Ah, what's this?

HMO, Hyperion Medical

Outpost, that'll do.

I hope they carry this antidote.

30 hours from the next star winds.

Yes.

(tense music)

Vehicle SO-359088 has been located.

Adjust course to intercept.

Adjusted.

We should reach the Carpathia

in approximately two hours.

(tense music)

That sucks about your

whole marriage thing.

As close as we are, I'm shocked and hurt

that you haven't told me before.

Sarcasm noted.

Divorce isn't generally

something that you brag about.

Well now, I wouldn't

worry about Dante, he'll get over this

little revelation of yours.

Excuse me?

What makes you think I

care what he thinks?

This has nothing to do with him,

or you for that matter.

Ow.

Ow.

Asteroid field,

right in the old flight path.

Prepare course alteration and calculate

flight-time to Hyperion Outpost.

SHIP'S COMPUTER: Projected flight-time,

52 hours 45 minutes.

Busted.

(sighs)

Maintain current course, maximum speed.

SHIP'S COMPUTER: Done.

(ship engines rumble)

What the hell's going on here?

(chairs whir)

Status, Perc.

Debris off port bow.

The center of the belt

is too dense to navigate.

On collision course with Tulip.

450 kilometers and closing,

425.

Enough Caravaggio.

Percy follow that ship.

Gotcha.

(crash)

(asteroids bang on ship)

(upbeat adventure music)

Visual on the Carpathia,

heavy damage at stake.

Why isn't he adjusting his course?

(crash)

He must be hurt.

DANTE: Percy deploy Beetles.

I can't we're not close enough.

It's out of their range.

They'll make it, just do it please.

(crash)

(Beetles whoosh by)

Easy.

The ship can't take much more.

(crash)

Damage to the main reactor.

We've gotta get out of here before

we sustain more damage.

Keep pulling them out Percy.

That's it.

(alarms blare)

(explosions roar)

(dramatic music)

Take us outta here now.

(dramatic music)

The crash.

Oh.

Take it easy, you have a concussion.

I can't believe this, Luc.

How?

Why?

Look, I'm a bounty-hunter now.

A warrant went out for your arrest.

(gate clangs shut)

and uh, we were in the area.

They want me arrested?

Can't catch a break.

Two counts, first-degree murder.

Nice going, Eric.

Lucretia, she's a,

special woman, huh?

Yeah, she's good at what she does.

She's not a big fan of failure.

Nope, she's not.

That's part of her charm.

And you and her?

We work together, that's all.

That's good.

It was all like a dream

when we were married.

So, what's my warrant say?

Wanted dead or alive?

Alive.

But in your case there's a,

a special incentive.

Then you might want

to get me an antidote.

DANTE: Antidote to what?

They injected me with some kind of

fatal drug prototype they were testing.

I'm no murderer, it was self-defense.

You know for every Mug

I've put in that cage

I heard another story,

but as they used to say,

tell it to the judge.

(electronic door whooshes)

(pensive music)

CARAVAGGIO: They developed the cure for

Parkinson's Disease in the 22nd century,

and since been leaders in

the field of neurochemistry.

Can you access their personnel files?

How long has Eric been employed

in the janitorial staff?

CARAVAGGIO: Less than 24-hours.

24-hours?

CARAVAGGIO: There's something unusual

about BioDesign's janitorial staff.

Their turnover rate is really high.

They list over 4000 janitors.

4000 janitors?

What does that mean?

CARAVAGGIO: That they have a filthy facility.

(thoughtful music)

You know I never thought that if

we met again it would be here.

Do I look good?

Fate is hard to believe, Lucretia.

But I'm not a killer.

You know me better than that.

So from Special Ops pilot to

cargo specialist to janitor.

Not exactly working our way up, are we?

(Eric laughs)

Janitor, that's a good one.

I've done a lot of things,

but janitor, no.

I don't think so.

My life, since you left,

hasn't been stellar, I must admit.

So um,

exactly what have you been up to?

From that little smirk on your face,

I know you already have your answer.

Gambling.

Caravaggio, why are you

scanning the prisoner?

CARAVAGGIO: Captain's orders.

I'll be right back.

CARAVAGGIO: Captain, I've analyzed the results

of the medical scan.

The prisoner's blood contains

a foreign anti-body.

When was this foreign agent introduced?

Approximately seven hours ago.

DANTE: Your prognosis?

The anti-body appears to be attacking

brain-stem activity.

With it's complicated development,

I estimate the prisoner

has 41-hours to live.

Luc, it's a preliminary test.

It's probably wrong.

(somber music)

The closest medical facility

is the Hyperion Outpost.

Caravaggio, how long to the

Hyperion Medical Outpost?

CARAVAGGIO: With the current state of the

main reactors, it will take

three days, seven hours.

And at full capacity?

CARAVAGGIO: 29-hours.

I'll get Percy on it right away.

PERCY: Yeah right, no problem.

(pensive music)

(pensive music)

Ugh.

I can tell by your face you didn't

come here to tell me you had our son.

No.

I haven't found Travis yet.

But Penny, there's a prisoner onboard.

Apparently he's been poisoned.

We don't have time to get him to

a medical facility for an antidote.

Why do you care?

He's Luc's ex-husband.

And I think she still loves him.

Don't know what I can do.

Look around, there's nothing here.

And as you know, I don't

even really exist.

You're right.

I'm sorry, I don't know.

Ask Caravaggio to try

some other diagnostics.

It's always nice to see you.

Penny, it hurts so much

for me to come here.

I know it's hard on you.

Maybe it would be best if

you destroyed the ship.

Maybe it would be best if I were gone.

No, Penny please, don't say that.

Wait.

I know.

I know, I love you too.

(somber music)

(dramatic music)

LUCRETIA: We're running more detailed tests.

But I can't promise you anything.

Destiny has delivered

me to you, Lucretia.

Must mean something,

you and me together again.

There is no you and me anymore.

Caravaggio why are you being so slow?

I'm also working on an

urgent biochemistry task.

Terrific.

Why don't you vacuum my

quarters while you're at it?

How long is this gonna take oughten?

CARAVAGGIO: Minimum two hours

for the detailed analysis

and that much again to construct

the basic makeup for an antidote,

with simultaneous operations

in the main reactor.

Luc,

stop pacing.

I never thought that seeing him again

would effect me like this.

Once you're in love, you never

really stop loving that person.

I'm not in love with him.

DANTE: So what's wrong then?

Just realized that, I've never

gotten over being so damn mad at him.

Uh-huh.

(dramatic music)

So what are the odds,

of this computer developing an antidote?

I don't know.

(soft music)

But it's the only game you've got.

It's all about calculating

the odds with you isn't it?

Even if the payoff is your life.

You're still angry

at me about that, huh?

You left me, remember?

People change, Luc.

They learn from their

mistakes and move on.

You said I would never change.

Was I wrong?

You didn't give me a chance.

I gave you everything.

But what hurt me the most is that

you didn't fight for me.

It was like the odds were

too great for us.

Results of the antidote

development processing

will be available momentarily

on the bridge.

(somber music)

So what have we got?

Caravaggio.

Bearing in mind that we're dealing with

inorganic compounds mixed with human red cells,

and that the functioning of the.

Caravaggio, can we do it or not?

CARAVAGGIO: Yes, we can.

Great, okay.

Send the formula to the med unit.

Get me Percy in the main engine room.

[Dante On Intercom] Percy?

Percy are you there?

I'm working.

I'm working.

[Dante On Intercom] We found an antidote.

Huh?

Oh, that's good.

Do you know what, bananas.

[Dante On Intercom] Percy are you there?

(whump)

(soothing music)

Here's your second chance.

(romantic music)

(sighs)

(slow futuristic music)

(dramatic music)

DANTE: My wife was dying,

she was a scientist, a genius.

(dramatic music)

No.

Where's Travis?

Where's our son?

Sweetie, it's okay honey,

everything's going to be fine now.

DANTE: Conducting secret experiments,

Penny had figured out how to capture

the essence of a person's soul.

We're just electrical charges, she used to say.

(dramatic music)

My wife is dead, except for this.

Mont.

(dramatic music)

That was more than ten years ago.

Caravaggio.

CARAVAGGIO: I'll be there after I attend

to this extremely delicate isotope transfer.

You're gonna wear out the titanium

plating pacing like that, it's a shame.

So when did you leave Special-Ops?

18 months ago.

Did you fall in love and run

off with another man?

My mother died.

Sorry.

I wanted to be with my father

after it happened.

ERIC: Darius must of appreciated that.

Appreciated that.

You obviously don't remember my father very well.

Well he's a hard man to forget

once you know him.

Didn't like me much though.

Maybe you wish you'd listened to him.

No, my regrets aren't about that.

CARAVAGGIO: Sorry I took so long,

but better safe than being atomized

by the core going nova.

Please sit as still as you can.

Aren't you tired of looking at my insides yet?

CARAVAGGIO: Why would I become

tired of doing what I'm programmed to do?

Mmm.

What is it?

The poison compound has overpowered the antidote.

Cell degeneration has resumed.

Well that can't be right.

Scan him again.

(scanner beeps)

CARAVAGGIO: I'm sorry, but

my initial assessment was correct.

How long?

CARAVAGGIO: thirteen hours, maybe fourteen.

Well.

You tried.

I wanna thank you, Luc, for putting up with me.

It's okay.

No, really, I mean it.

Considering what happened to us.

I said it's okay.

What is the matter with you?

No one's giving up.

Especially you.

This isn't finished.

(dramatic music)

(machines roar)

(upbeat music)

Thirteen hours, what are we gonna do?

Dante to Percy.

DANTE: Percy?

(loud sparking)

DANTE: Percy?

PERCY: I'm working already.

Percy, the antidote didn't work.

We've got thirteen hours to get to Hyperion.

PERCY: Caravaggio can we reformulate the antidote?

Not with what we have onboard.

Percy are you awake?

Percy?

PERCY: Yes if you'd stop interrupting me.

(dramatic music)

DANTE: Percy?

Any luck?

No, this is not about luck.

I need time.

Dude.

DANTE: What do you need?

A conversion chip 8200.

Even an old reapplied 7500 right now, but.

I don't know.

Go to that, go to that shuttle

that the murderer used to escape,

see what it has.

DANTE: I'll see what I can do.

Caravaggio, can you access

Carpathia's parts list?

(dramatic music)

She said that one will work.

(music crescendos)

(pensive music)

7500, this is it.

Better get this to Percy.

Hang on.

This might, no.

ERIC VOICE-LOG: Guess I'm about to cash

in my chips for the last time.

It's Madigan, I can take the schooling.

I'll take this to.

ERIC VOICE-LOG: Feels very close now.

Gonna be close, roll the dice baby.

Come on, come on, no snake-eyes.

Too bad no one's here to share this with me.

Time to ride the dragon's tail, come on!

(somber music)

(romantic music)

LUCRETIA: Would I love you as much as I do.

ERIC: If I were bald?

LUCRETIA: No, no, sorry.

ERIC: Would I love you as much as I do?

LUCRETIA: If I was fat.

ERIC: Hmmm, yes.

Would I love you as much as I do.

If they threw me off the forces.

Are you serious?

But why?

Oh yeah.

You promised.

I know, but I got caught.

Used up my last warning.

But surely disciplinary action will be first.

They say, as a captain, I brought

dishonor to the Division.

Dishonorable Discharge from Captain.

We'll go to the Board of Inquiry.

It won't help.

We will appeal straight to the Division Commander,

I mean, you have a problem with an illness.

Luc.

No, you have to fight this.

This is my fault, fight what?

Fight myself?

But we can start over.

Somewhere new.

(romantic music)

Do I love you as much as I do,

if I couldn't stand to look at you?

Where are we going?

I'm taking you to your wife's quarters.

Come on.

Oh.

I feel so funny.

Come on.

Why are you doing this?

Doesn't matter does it?

Here we go.

Well how sick is he?

So sick he might not make it, Rudy.

Well that means we won't get paid.

They said he had to be alive.

Rudy, they're the ones who

poisoned him in the first place.

So nobody's perfect.

Look, do what you can.

You will notice that I'm not pacing.

That's good.

Means there's still hope for us then.

We will get there.

You just need to hold on.

You can beat this.

And just like you,

fight right to the end.

Please don't start that.

I'm trying to finish something Luc.

You know what I really felt after you left?

No.

Relief.

Mm.

I was relieved and grateful

that I wasn't gonna fail you any more.

That's not true.

We both made mistakes.

We just didn't try hard enough, that's all.

No pretending.

We both know what happened to us.

(electronic door whooshes open)

DANTE: Excuse me.

Come in.

We're back online.

Really?

Percy says we're running at full power.

You see I told you we could make it.

You just need to stay and rest.

I better check with Caravaggio

to make sure we haven't veered

too much off course.

DANTE: Luc.

Even at full speed it's four hours to Hyperion.

I'm sorry.

(dramatic music)

LUCRETIA: Caravaggio?

(Caravaggio beeps negative)

Caravaggio,

please scan Eric.

(scanner beeps)

CARAVAGGIO: My scanning reveals

that Eric has less than an hour

before the foreign agents completely

overwhelm his immune system.

I um,

I better check um,

with Percy.

Make sure that um,

you know, everything's fine with the reactor.

Percy'll take care of the reactor.

Why don't you stay here?

I'll make sure we get there

as soon as possible, okay?

No, I uh,

(somber music)

[Female Scientist] My subjects, so far,

have died,

within 48-hours of the injection.

It's what happens in those 48-hours

that interests me.

I know I have no business

asking anything of you.

But I can't bear to see her

fight like this for me.

I need your help.

I must go back to my shuttle to end this.

I can't do that.

We both know I'm worthless to you now.

Don't let me be worthless to her at the end.

Hey Luc.

Shouldn't you be hanging around with your ex?

It's kind of obvious we're

not gonna make it in time.

Board of Directors.

Siemonyvich, Shipley, Paquette.

Paquette!

Damn it!

(adventure music)

Eric.

(transmitter beeps)

Access code, crossing rubicon.

(transmitter beeps louder)

Father, I've just discovered that Paquette

is on the Board of Directors at BioMycon.

If you had anything to do with it,

I will never forgive you for

what you've done to Eric.

End transmission.

Caravaggio, isolate Dante and Eric.

Both are in the corridor leading

to the shuttle bay area.

Damn it.

(adventure music)

Stop!

Come on we're going back to my quarters.

Thank you but I can take over from here.

No.

DANTE: Luc.

Why won't you let me help you?

And you, you drag him down here?

Luc,

when I decided to cut through

that asteroid field, I never would

have thought I'd find you again, never.

(electronic door whooshes)

But now, it's time for courage.

I can't.

Your life is here where you belong.

I don't belong anywhere.

I won't be part of their little experiment.

I won't let them win.

So please let me go.

This is the last thing I'll ever ask.

And it has to be you.

(somber music)

(alarms blare)

(shuttle engine revs)

CARAVAGGIO: All transfer locks secure.

Ready for decoupling.

Luc.

Caravaggio, free the Carpathia.

CARAVAGGIO: Done Captain.

(shuttle engine roars)

(somber music)

Pretty lights.

Shiny buttons.

Can you hear me?

How do you feel?

I feel funny.

LUCRETIA: Are you alright?

(alarm siren blares)

(gasps)

(massive boom)

CARAVAGGIO: The Carpathia has been destroyed.

(somber music)

Unknown,

unknown my ass.

(dramatic music)

Hey Perc, you got a second?

You alright?

Why wouldn't I be?

I don't know.

Shouldn't feel bad about not getting

the reactor back online in time

to get us to Hyperion.

Wasn't your fault.

I know that.

Percy, doesn't anything get to you?

My family being killed go to me.

That got to me.

(somber music)

(gentle sad music)

(alarm buzzes)

This is yours.

Wherever you are.

LUCRETIA: People come in and out of your life,

they make you happy, they cause you grief,

and then they're gone.

All that's left are ripples where they once were.

Ripples stretching out forever.

(sad music)

NARRATOR: On the next Starhunter.

MAN: Inside everyone, there is a hunger,

a desire to be something greater than themselves.

I have saved you!

CROWD: Save us!

The most high and venerable Prophet

of the almighty Behute.

Peace be unto you friends.

Your god Behute told you to incinerate

your followers while you conveniently ran away?

Knowledge and love before salvation.

Hold it right there.

Luc, gimme your gun.

Over here please.

(dramatic music)
