All language subtitles for you will be destroyed.2e08.hdtv-lol-eng(

Previously on Pandora...

You will be granted more time to prove

that all the six races of the galaxy

deserve to continue their existence.

You have everything you need.

Help me find my brother.

What the hell is he doing on Zatar?

You look ridiculous.

Your wife wasn't the spy.

I was.

I should have known you would
never step down from CIS.

But even I didn't think
you'd kill your own wife

to save your job.

I killed Laura

because you convinced me she
was a spy for the Zatarians.

I wanted to spare her the
pain and shame of a trial,

trotted out before a war-weary
Earth, out for blood.

So, that's how you justify it.

You not only betrayed me,

you betrayed the entire Confederacy.

And why not?

EarthCom is weak.

Since you absconded on the Dauntless,

the Outer Rim colonies are on
the verge of open rebellion.

The Sumi are moving in to
annex half the sector,

and Earth can't do a thing to stop it.

There may not be a galaxy,

or anything else to
control for that matter,

if you don't let me go.

Falling back on the old chestnut

of the mythical super-race

that's going to wipe
us all from existence.

You need to listen to me...

No, you need to listen to me.

We've searched this ship
from stem to stern,

and still there is no
sign of your niece Jax

and her band of merry mutineers.

I need to know where they've gone.

I'd rather not say,
if it's all the same to you.

Your arrogance is infuriating, Osborn.

Yes. You're not the first
person to say that.

So, what happens now?

We return to Earth, you hold
a sham trial and imprison me

for the rest of my natural life?

Nothing so mundane.

No, we're headed to the Blockade Line

in the Ipcress system.

You're going to stop
the Sumi going to war?

On the contrary,

I'll be there to start one.

Or should I say, you are.

Me?

Now I know you're crazy.

This ship, under complete
computer control,

will destroy the Sumi flagship.

Once that happens...

war is inevitable.

Now before I leave you

on the Dauntless for your
final mission for EarthCom,

I will ask you one last time:

where is Jax Zhou?

_

_

Hey! Hello, my friends!

Hey!

No, no. No, no, no.

I'm glad you got our message.

You saved our collective butts.

Again.

Ooh!

And who are these two
fine, young ladies?

- Zazie Nichols.
- Zazie Nichols.

Hi, um, I'm Jax.

Thank you so much for your
help, Captain Scantron.

Well, for you, anything.

Oh, and, please, call me Captain Roy.

Okay.

- Everybody on Earth this good-looking?
- Hmm...

Oh, and speaking of good-looking,

where's my main man Xander?

I really wish I knew.

_

_

What's my sister doing on Zatar?

At least now I know where Zion is.
What I cannot understand is

what is Bey Turhan doing here
conspiring with the Zatarians

and your sister.

I say we find out, and
then we shoot them all.

Isn't that... ?

Admiral Meredith Lucas.

- Synced & corrected by MementMori -
-- www.addic7ed.com --

So, where we headed?

Asmodeus 6.

Asmodeus 6?

Why would you wanna head out
to that big speck of nothing?

You'll just have to accept
my word that it's urgent,

and we need to get there
as soon as possible.

Got it.

It'll be about 28 hours
to make the trip there.

In the meantime, I've prepared
quarters for all of you,

and dinner will be served at 1700.

Sounds yummy. We'll grab
a shave and a shower

and see you in, like, what, ten minutes?

Make that 30.

Dude!

Is it that bad?

Damn it.

What does Meredith Lucas
have to do with all this?

I don't know... yet.

She's on the move.

Let's follow her and find
out what she's up to,

- and then we'll shoot her.
- Wait!

We can follow her, but
we're not shooting anyone.

Don't be so sure.

These things always end in shooting.

Trust me. You coming?

I've got a plan.

Step aside, Zatarian.

I think it's time that you and
I had a little chat, Cordelia.

Drop it.

Now, talk or bleed.

Well, this is a new look on you.

Like it.

You were saying?

If there's one thing we
all learned from Daddy,

it's that "there's no profit in peace."

So, you wanted to incriminate
Father and Parallax

for illegally shipping weapons

to the Sumi pirates. Why?

Well, so Daddy can go back
to prison where he belongs.

And I can have Parallax all to myself.

Not Regan, not you.

Me.

See, Daddy never took me seriously,

but he'll always remember

I was the daughter that outplayed him.

And what about the clones?

What do they have to do with all this?

Bey Turhan will use the
threat of the Sumi pirates

to declare independence

for the Outer Rim from Earth.

And while Earth and the Sumi
go to war over the colonies...

Parallax will supply the weapons,

with the only real winner being...

The Zatarians. They'll
watch everything burn,

while they use the time
to rebuild their fleet.

Yes. Jax was right.

You're not just a pretty face after all.

Do you have any idea
how many people will die

so that you can work on your
daddy issues, Cordelia?

You can't make an omelet
without breaking a few eggs...

Xander.

Drop the weapon, EarthCom.

Parting is such sweet
sorrow, dear sister.

We have to get her to a medic, Turhan!

You presume I care.

All I want is the money Cordelia

and the Zatarians owe me

for destabilizing the Confederacy.

So, this is all about money for you?

It usually is.

But killing you will be an exception.

I'm happy to do that for free.

Then I'm sorry to disappoint you.

I thought I'd never see you again, Zion.

And you won't.

I appreciate you coming to rescue me,

but there's no way we can escape Zatar.

Cordelia alerted Salazen
to your presence.

They'll be guards everywhere.

I think you should let
us worry about that.

Take care of it.

So, let me see if I can get this right.

- Hmm.
- The entire fate of the universe

depends on you getting to Asmodeus 6

so that you can convince
an ancient alien super-race

that our universe should
keep on trucking.

Pretty much. Yeah.

How you going to do that?

I'm still working on that.

You know, Roy, this Gorkorp
was divine, right?

I mean, the only time I've
ever had it prepared this well

was by a Cronin chef out on
the Free Worlds of Ausix.

I mean, that was something.

It's funny you should say that,

because my first mate, my personal chef,

- and my sister is...
- A Cronin.

Anyone for dessert?

I have you all to thank

for Bertha and I reconnecting
after all these years.

After seeing Xander with his big bro,

I finally realized that I
needed to reach out to her

and make amends myself.

And I have you to thank as well.

I mean, it's great spending
time with my brother again.

Hey, y'all looking very confused.

Well, obviously, she's adopted.

- No kidding.
- Oh!

No kidding.

Roy, uh, saved my life as an infant.

His family was terraformers,

working on what they thought
was a deserted planet.

He was playing out
with friends as a child

and he found my egg.

I could have been killed.

But, he took my egg and hid it

and brought me home with him.

Didn't even tell his
parents until I was born.

But if it wasn't for him,

I would have never hatched.

Which would have sucked

because when she's not working for me,

she's helping displaced orphans

find new homes around the galaxy.

You have everything you need.

- This can't be a coincidence.
- I don't think so either.

The Pandora has always
stood before the Ancients,

and now, she won't be alone.

No. It has to be me and only me.

I do not agree. You have a Zatarian,

a human, and now a Cronin.

We can all stand with
you and make the plea

for survival together.

Absolutely not.

- Why?
- You know what happened to Matta.

I can't put the rest of your
lives at risk like that.

If you fail...

we're all going to die anyway.

And also,

it is not your decision to make.

It is ours.

Xander, where are we?

We're home.

Mum's been living on her own.

Mum?

Zion? Is it really you?

- Yeah, Mum. It's Zion.
- Oh!

Xander?

I'm so glad to have you home again, son.

Both of you!

My friend's hurt, Mum.

I need to help her right away.

They told me you were never coming back.

It's okay, Mother.

I'm home now.

Oh.

Oh...

_

Welcome to the bridge.

You've just been given
a battlefield promotion.

You're not seriously going ahead
with this insane plan of yours.

No. You are.

And what about Shral?

He'll be coming with me.

His job is not finished yet.

Donovan! Donovan, what's going on?

Donovan!

Finish patching me up so I
can do what must be done.

What are you talking about?

You need to give me the weapon

so I can destroy the Ancients
before they destroy us.

I'm not gonna do that.

Isn't it obvious that I need
to be the one to do this?

Don't be naive.

We might not even have to
use it against the Ancients

if Jax is successful.

Now who's being naive?

You think Jax can save us?

I don't think so.

And I don't think you do either.

I have to go.

I'll get Zion to look after you.

You'll be okay, Tierney.
You're a survivor.

No, please. Please, don't do that,

you're gonna rip the micro-sutures
and start bleeding again, please.

I wasn't always this way, you know.

Growing up...

I received nothing but
scorn and ridicule

from my sisters and my father.

I'm sorry.

Harlan couldn't even tolerate
me being around him.

I was his third daughter, and
all he ever wanted was a son.

I was a disappointment from
the moment I was born.

So I ran away to Hypatia

to learn the ways of the Syndicate.

I learned from the women
there that I could change.

I could... be something different,

someone different.

They showed me several bodies

and I picked a new one.

This body.

The scared, pitiable, fragile
Odessa died that day.

And Tierney was born.

Or so I thought.

But she's still with me,

every day, clawing to get out.

Why are you telling me all this?

Because I became something
that day that I wasn't,

and I've always regretted it.

Something to keep in mind

as you prepare to commit genocide.

Good luck, Xander.

You cannot do this, Admiral.

On the contrary, I'm very certain I can.

The computer aboard the
Dauntless is programmed,

the auto-pilot is set,
and Donovan Osborn,

who spent his entire career in CIS

trying to avert wars,

is about to be responsible
for starting one.

This is Fleet Admiral Donovan Osborn.

Disable all weapons systems.

Unable to comply.

I repeat, this is Fleet
Admiral Donovan Osborn.

You're about to launch an illegal
attack on a Sumi vessel.

- Disable all weapons.
- Unable to comply.

To bloody comply. On whose authority?

Admiral Meredith Lucas.

Torpedoes armed.

- Preparing to fire.
- No. No!

Disengage!

I repeat, disengage!

Computer, did I do that?

Harlan?

How did you gain control of this ship?

Donovan.

Well, it looks like
you're in a bit of a pickle.

This ship is rigged to unleash
holy hell on the Sumi flagship,

armed for bear, and about
to start an interstellar war.

Ah, yes, Admiral Lucas doesn't
care for you very much.

I can't say I blame her.

I don't have time for this.
I need your help, Harlan.

Do you want to regain
control of the Dauntless?

- How?
- Well, I built and designed that ship

for EarthCom.

You don't think I wouldn't build
a trapdoor into the A.I.?

Good show, Harlan.

Oh, no. Don't thank me just yet.

If I help you,

you'll be in my debt.

And what exactly do you want from me?

I want you to come and
work for me again.

Seriously?

Well, there was a time when
that was all you ever wanted.

Until I realized all you
cared about was power

- and money.
- Well, that's the deal.

I help you and you help me.

Or else, you burn,

my old friend.

Fine.

I will accept your proposition.

Wonderful.

Good luck, Donovan.

Good luck to us all, Harlan.

All systems compliant.

I have complete control of the ship.

What the hell?

Where is Osborn going?
How did he regain control?

Well, it looks like you underestimated
Donovan yet again, Admiral.

Permission to come aboard.

Permission granted.

Glad to see you made it, Uncle.

You too. It was touch
and go for a while there.

We need to get to the
surface immediately.

- We're really running out of time.
- "We"?

Uh, me, Jett, Ralen, and... Bertha.

Bertha.

- Hello, sir.
- Hello.

Hey, um...

Roy Scantron.

But you can call me "Captain Roy."

I'm a big fan.

Well, pleased to make your acquaintance.

Jett, you really don't have to
do this if you don't want to.

No, Jax. I want to do this.

I have to do this.

Proximity alert.

A Sumi battlecruiser has
just entered the system.

They must have followed me
from the Blockade Line.

They're on a direct-course
intercept for our position.

Arming all weapons
and raising the shields.

I have acquired a target
lock on the Sumi vessel.

Prepared to fire.

On my command...

- Belay that order.
- Yes, Captain.

Hail that Sumi vessel.

You came?

Seems I can't say no to you.

I'm sending you coordinates now.

Meet me on the surface. Come on.

Oh, my sister.

- I'm so happy to see you.
- And you, I.

Are you gonna finally
tell me why I'm here?

Xander!

Where have you been?

It is very agreeable to
see you again, my friend.

Sorry I'm late for the party.

I have been so worried about you.

I've been worried about you, as well.

I assume we have a plan?

Uh...

I think...

I know that we have
everything that we need now.

That's what I needed to hear.

Get her inside the cave! Now!

Do you have eyes on the shooter?

No. Sending up a drone.

That's Admiral Meredith Lucas.

I don't believe the admiral
will trouble us anymore.

***

I thought things would be...

Why?

Why did...

No! No, no, no, no, no.

Stay with me, Aleka.
Stay with me, please.

Please, don't go. I need you.

She's gone.

I thought the reprieve from the Ancients

would grant me enough time

to find a reason to save the universe.

I thought I could change the worlds.

I was wrong.

You weren't wrong, Jax.

Tell that to Matta.

Tell that to Aleka.

They're both dead because
I foolishly believed

humanity could change after millennia

of brutal wars and conflict.

The other Pandora, the one
my uncle put in a box,

told me this day would
come, and she was right.

The only thing that's necessary

for evil to triumph

is that good people do nothing.

You remember that?
You learned it in school.

Aleka could have changed Sumi forever,

and now she's dead on
some distant alien planet

and it's my fault.

Jax, you can't lose hope now.

You did!

Where were you when I needed you?

You ran away.

From me, from your crew,
from everything.

Believe me when I say that
I didn't have a choice.

There's always a choice.

And I've made mine.

Jax, you can't.

Billions of lives depend
on what you do next.

I can't hide from the
Ancients anymore, Xander.

And I can't hide from myself.

No!

Professor Osborn,
this is Captain Duvall.

I need you to go to Deck 5, Cabin 42

and bring down the contents of
that room to me immediately.

What is it, Xander?

You'll know when you see it.

We're gonna need it now.

What are you doing?

I did what I had to do, Ralen.
The plan wouldn't have worked.

She won't let the universe be destroyed!

Jax can still save us!

The Ancients wouldn't have believed her.

Jax lost her faith.

I will ask you again, Captain,
what do you intend to do?

I intend to go to the Ancients myself.

And when I'm there,

I'll release this.

You're going to use the
anti-matter weapon

to destroy them?

How do you even know
that that will work?

This is our only choice, Ralen.

It's what Jax's mother was
planning from the very beginning.

Eve? How do you know this?

Why would you believe her?!

I don't have time to explain
this to you, Ralen.

I am your commanding officer
and these are my orders.

I am sorry, Ralen, but this
is the way that it has to be.

I am sorry too, Captain.

I will not let you continue

with this ill-advised course
of action any longer.

Ralen, what the hell are you doing?

This is not your concern, Jett!

It's very much my concern!
You just hit the captain!

Get out of my way, Jett.

I can't do that.

I'm sorry, buddy.

Don't.

Captain Duvall, stop!

Deep down, you know I'm right, Ralen.

- I know no such thing.
- Stop!

Don't, Ralen!

Stop!

Not another step, Captain.

You will hand me the plasma
weapon, very, very carefully.

Thank you, Professor.

Did you bring it?

Indeed I did.

I assume you had no choice.

None whatsoever.

I never wanted this for you, Xander.

The consequences of our actions
are not easy to live with.

Take it from someone who knows.

We need to get Jax inside
before she wakes up.

Xander?

You were the best I ever trained.

If I was too hard on
you, it was because...

I know, Professor.

Just go.

Please.

I have a date with the Ancients.

If you could prevent what
happened, would you?

Save Jax from having
her faith shattered.

Of... of course, I would.

Who the hell are you?

Even if you would need
to pay a very high price.

Any price.

Come with me.

My sister.

We've traveled back in time.

How is that possible?

- I am so happy to see you.
- And I, you.

Are you finally gonna
tell me why I'm here?

Xander?

Look out!

Get into the cave! Get in the cave!

Where have you been?

What the hell is going on?

It doesn't matter.

What matters is that I'm here now,

and it's time for you to
embrace your destiny.

Now what?

I see you got our message, Pandora.

Yes.

And now, you will receive ours.

Then, by all means,

please, follow me.

I am here to plead for the
survival of our universe.

And do you truly believe
that it is worthy?

Don't ask me. Ask them.

When I first met Jett,
a human, last year,

he was selfish.

He only ever thought of himself.

But he changed,

and now I am honored
to call him a friend.

I was so afraid, all the time,

of letting my friends see the real me.

But then I learned it takes real courage

to be who you truly are.

The Cronin feared other cultures,

but if it hadn't been for a human,

I wouldn't be here right now.

It was a human's empathy and compassion

for a race completely
different than his own

and his unconditional
love that saved my life.

And now, I do the same
for other species,

having learned from the
example of my brother.

We're all brothers and
sisters under the skin.

Humans and Sumi have
much that divides us,

but together, Jax and I have realized

there's even more that
brings us together.

It is what we have in common
that transcends our differences.

I gave up everything,

my family, my world,

because I believe in
every fiber of my being

that what Jax says is true.

That all races can live
together in peace.

That the future can be
better than the present.

But to do this,

we must all work tirelessly every day

to make the worlds we dream of possible.

None of these races will
ever achieve perfection,

but it's the constant
striving to be better

that makes them worthy of existence.

All of them are capable of change.

Even if not today, tomorrow.

Well done, Pandora.

We agree. They have all that they need.

The Pandora's job is now finished.

What does that mean, "finished"?

This universe has been
judged and found... worthy.

We believe that all of your races

can achieve peaceful
co-existence in time.

In a millennium or so,

we shall return to
validate our decision,

but until then we shall
abide by this verdict.

And what does that mean for the Pandora?

She will stay here with us.

But she's a human.

She doesn't belong here.
She belongs with us.

Did you not agree to make any sacrifice

to save your universe?

Xander! Xander, no.

Ralen, you know better than anyone
what they're planning on doing.

Listen.

Matta did what she had to do.

I accept that decision now.

Thanks to you.

Now, you must let Jax do
what she needs to do.

This is what she was born to do.

I can't let you go, Jax.

This is the way it has to be.

I love you.

Goodbye, Xander.

Jax?

I loved her too.

And to honor her memory,

I will return to Sumi
to continue my work

to unite our races,

and make Sumix a world

where all are free to
choose their own path.

It's what Jax would have wanted.

I know that you can do it.

Jax believed in you.

So do I.

You're all under arrest.

If anyone should be under
arrest here, Admiral, it's you.

Do what she says, Xander.

Don't give her an excuse to shoot you.

Who said anything about an excuse?

- Not me.
- Who are you?!

Ralen, get everybody
back to the Kubrick.

We need to get out of here now.

Professor, don't.

- After what she's done?
- If you kill her,

it'll be on your conscience
for the rest of your life.

I've done it before.

It's not what Jax would've wanted.

By the time she wakes
up, we'll be long gone.

Who are you?

Do I know you?

That wasn't a request,
it was an order, Ralen.

The portals didn't just let
you travel through space.

They let you travel
through time as well.

You are special.

You are special... Bloom.

I've watched you and
Jax for a long time,

and I inherited many of her memories
and even some of her feelings.

She loved you, you know.

Even when you thought she didn't.

It was always you.

I feel like I've lost a part of myself.

I would have done
anything to protect her,

but in the end... I couldn't save her.

You did save her.

And she saved everyone.

In time, you will learn to accept that.

Where are you gonna go now?

I mean, you're welcome to come with us.

Thank you, Xander.

Maybe one day, but Earth
is no longer my home.

I belong to the stars.

What about you?

I've followed orders for
almost all of my life.

I suppose maybe now it's time for
me to find out what life is like

with no one to follow except myself.

Hey, if you ever need help again,

you know where to find me.

Let's hope we do not.

But you will.

Just, uh, take good care of Zazie, okay?

Oh, you don't need to worry about that.

She's in good hands with us.

And I'll be back at the
Academy in the fall.

I'll see you all then. Bye.

Take care now.

Where do you think
you're going, Professor?

I made a promise to Harlan
Fried that I need to keep.

And you're still certain
about that, are you?

I'll need his help to free Shral.

I gave him my word.

While that may not mean
much to a man like Harlan,

it means a great deal to me.

I understand... Admiral.

Captain.

Captain.

Like Matta, Jax did what she had to do.

She would want you to know that.

I understand, Ralen.

That it doesn't mean
that I have to like it.

There's one thing that troubles me.

What's that, Jett?

How did Admiral Lucas
know where to find us?

What is this all about, Salazen?

I demand to see the Earth ambassador!

It is good to have you back with us.

Welcome, Captain Duvall.

Jax?

How did you get in here?

I barely made it aboard
before the portal collapsed.

The entire portal system is gone.

Permanently, by the looks of it.

So, I assume you were successful
in stopping the Ancients.

For now.

So, do you mind telling
me why you are here?

When the portal closed,
I lost contact with my mother.

I need your help to find Eve.

Captain, we need you on
the bridge immediately.

What is it, Ralen?

I think you should see
this for yourself.

- What's happening?
- Look.

Captain Xander Duvall,

on the orders of the President
of the Earth Confederacy,

you're all under arrest...

... and are hereby ordered to
turn over the fugitive, Ralen,

to the Zatarians immediately.

There is nowhere left
for you to run, son.

It's time to come home.

If you do not stand down,

you will be destroyed.

What do we do now, Cap?

We resist...

Until we can't.
