In a matter of hours,

we'll know the location of Arcadia.

I've got a proposition for you.

Croupier's looking for passage to Arcadia,

she's offered us a seat in the game.

I'll get clean.

Get clean?

Have you hit your head?

Looks like you lose.

She bet me on a poker game.

You can't just take her!

I won't let you.

You haven't got it in you.

Mother!

Mama!

If you take Dr. Greaves, you're a traitor.

My daughter is dead.

Just like her father.

She will answer for her crimes.

Ash Harper was a hero, like her father.

Ash dedicated her life

to the service of our Commonworld,

to enforcing its laws

and ensuring it remains a beacon of justice

in the universe.

She leaves behind her mother, Rebecca.

Mummy, look.

Play with me, Mummy, play with me.

Disposal chute, activated.

You all right?

My whole life, I was on this path.

Everything was clear.

Now I have no idea

what the fuck I'm doing.

Welcome to the club.

So is there some sort of official badge,

or membership card or something?

Well...

Autopilot engaged.

Fun times.

What is that?

It's a detox cleans.

One hour to Arcadia, guys.

As long as Emma's coordinates are right.

So what is the plan, when we land?

Tula.

What is the plan?

In terms of getting Genny back?

Fuck her.

She's your daughter, Tula.

Come on.

Don't worry about it, mate.

We don't need her to get Genny back.

She'll try and stop us.

Ah, shit.

Warning, impact.

Warning, impact.

Warning, impact.

What's going on?

Hold it steady, we're almost through.

What's going on?

Life support systems are okay.

Pirate should've watched where this was fucking going

Proximity sensor should've warned us anyway.

Shit.

Engine diagnostics are okay.

Not for long,

half the fuel cells are fucked.

Forget that.

Forget the massive puddle of goo

that could blow us into another dimension any second,

yeah, excellent idea.

Glad you're not in charge.

Look at this.

What the fuck is that?

I was checking the proximity sensors for errors.

I clocked a glitch.

Had a look in the subroutines.

It's broadcasting our location to the Commonworld.

Bloody well stop it then.

I've tried, watch.

There must be a tracker attached to the sensor mast itself.

The Commonworld could be here any second.

Fuck.

Stop the leak.

Get us the fuck out of here.

No way, think about it.

They could've caught us any time they wanted.

They want us to lead them to Arcadia.

The tracker was activated after we left Kelp

by input into this console.

One of us did this.

Someone here is working for the Commonworld.

Subdirector Franklin.

Rebecca, thanks for coming.

Did I have a choice?

This must be a very difficult time for you

but your daughter died a hero.

I'm surprised to see you here.

You were posted to China, no?

In from Shanghai this morning.

And you're already in Dr. Lee's lab,

the heir apparent.

Yes, well, whoever's going to be selected tonight,

they're gonna need to know exactly

what happened on Empyreum.

I've already given my full account.

There are just a few details that don't quite stack up.

I'll tell you what happened on Empyreum.

The ARC killed my daughter and took Emma Greaves

so we need to respond immediately.

Not until the Electorate convenes.

This is no time to play politics.

You see that's the thing about us scientists, Rebecca.

We like to gather all of the data

before coming to conclusions,

so before we can decide how to proceed

with this Greaves situation,

a leader is going to be chosen

and they're gonna discover

exactly what happened to Dr. Lee.

So who is it then?

Who's the rat?

Maybe there's another stowaway.

I did a scan, we're the only lifeforms on the ship.

Drew the screw.

No, there's no way he'd endanger Genny.

You then.

What, you...

you guys are basically the only friends I've got.

What about the witch?

She's fucked us over before.

They tortured her for 17 years

and she never even told them where Arcadia was

and now she's just attaching trackers to the ship?

You fucked us before too.

No, it's not me, I found the thing.

Right.

For fuck's sake Tula.

The rest got five seconds to confess

or I'll kill all of ya.

Starting with you, snitch bitch.

It's Tula, she did it.

She double crossed us.

The fuck you talking about, screw?

It's true, I swear.

Genevieve told me.

That's why we was gonna run away together.

She told me that Tula had made a deal with the Commonworld.

Why didn't you say any of this before?

Because I was scared.

You will be fucking scared.

Hang on, hang on.

This doesn't make any sense.

Okay, yes, Tula is heartless,

but all she's ever wanted to do is get to Arcadia,

why the hell would she lead the Commonworld there?

Listen to Candy.

It's not me.

Drew is no liar.

She's right, I'm not

She bet her own daughter.

I'm gonna fix your lying lips.

Cuffs.

Let's get her locked up.

Shit.

Well, we've got schematics for the engines,

atmospherics and weapons,

but the pages for the sensor mast have been ripped out.

Tula must have used them to attach the tracker.

Yeah well, whoever's responsible

probably incinerated those pages

to ensure we couldn't mess with their hardware.

Right before they fucked with our only spacesuit

Does any of this

really sound like Tula, at all?

Look, whoever it is, tracker needs stopping,

the new aurum needs cleaning,

so let's get moving.

And honestly, I still think...

What's going on with you?

I though we were good.

We were.

What, you think I did this?

Verona, you watched me turn my back on everything.

Yeah, I did.

But you're a good liar, Ash.

The only thing I know for sure

is that the ship's been hacked

and the only person I can trust, is me.

It's nice here.

Do you know how much energy it takes to keep it that way?

How much power we need

to keep our climate even remotely stable?

The ARC have Emma Greaves

so now they can find new deposits of new aurum and we can't.

The thought of that scares me to death.

We need to act quickly.

I'm sure whoever's elected...

Whoever's elected will be a man of science

and sometimes I wonder whether we need a man,

or a woman, of action.

Arch-Marshall,

that's treason.

Alessia.

There's something people need to see.

There's something people need to know

Why isn't anyone listening to me?

Well...

I'm bloody clean!

For Christ's sake Echo.

Look, it is not Tula, alright, I know it.

He is a Commonworld screw,

what if it's actually him?

What?

What are you doing?

Oh. Your fear, I can smell it.

Haven't been able to do that for years.

Why are you afraid, sweets?

Is it because you're a spy?

Is that why you came up with that bullshit

that Genny told you it was Tula?

Come on, Candy.

Drew's a good boy.

He's never lied a day in his life.

Oh, he is lying now.

And I'm gonna prove it.

Verona, are you all good?

Yeah, let's just get this over with quickly, alright?

Verona?

Verona, are you there?

Listen, I need to...

Whatever you think, I'm not spying.

I would never do that to us.

To you.

Ash, not now.

Look, you can trust me.

Talk to me.

Verona?

You've turned off the comms, fuck.

She fucking did it.

Ash...

Verona!

Verona, come in!

What's happening?

Verona, respond!

Warning.

Filtration error.

Oxygen level 17%.

Water, fuck.

Verona, listen to me, there's a leak in the air scrubber.

Verona, cut your glove.

I've calculated it,

you'll have enough time to make it back inside.

Warning.

Oxygen level 12%

Verona, cut your glove now.

Cover the rip, just grip it with your other hand.

Okay, now get inside.

Warning.

Oxygen level, 5%.

Verona, now.

I'm not gonna make it.

Warning.

Oxygen level, 3%.

Yes you are.

This isn't gonna kill you.

All you have to do now is just breath slowly.

I can't.

You need to trust me.

You can do this.

You have to do this.

I need you.

That's it.

Just keep going.

You're nearly there.

You're going to make it.

Thank you.

Do you think Candy can actually smell the spy?

Yeah mate, and I'm 6 foot 4.

What is it?

I lied.

I lied about Tula.

Mate, that's fantastic.

What?

Make a pirate out of you yet, boy.

No.

I've got to tell everyone.

Yeah but mate, it probably is her anyway.

She'd do anything for money, just leave it.

No, I can't do that, mate.

Echo, you nearly finished?

Yeah, just about.

You're still on pilot duty.

We're ready to go.

Tracker gone?

Yep, I'll engage ShroudTech.

You make sure there's no Commonworld on our six

but fingers crossed.

Let's not get too excited.

Ain't over till we're singing karaoke

with the fat lady in Arcadia.

Verona, you okay?

Verona?

Stop!

I'm gonna let you out!

As long as everyone thinks it's you,

we're still in danger.

You won't hit me, will ya?

I've got bigger spies to fry, screw.

Verona?

I'm sorry.

What for?

Being such a fucking bitch.

I'm sure you can't help it.

I know you're not the spy, Ash.

Why do you do it?

Push people away?

I don't know.

Maybe I...

I get scared.

News just in.

Turn on a newsfeed.

You did this.

You leaked it.

Subdirector Franklin, while we stand around

waiting for the results of our so-called election...

You're causing panic

I am opening people's eyes

and the people demand action.

You want to be the Director?

You can't.

You're not a scientist, it's unconstitutional.

Perhaps that's just one more thing

that we'll have to change.

Find the spy.

What...

What are you?

What the fuck?

Hey, what the fuck, that's my stuff.

I've tried to stop her

but she's very determined.

Find the spy.

What's she taken?

I haven't taken anything.

They did this to me, they did it.

Get up.

They did...

Get up.

Drugged me.

Come on, let's splash some water on your face.

I'm gonna

get back to...

Emma, what do you think ARC will do to Tula?

Just like lock her up or something a bit spicier?

First, I'll kill you.

Then I'll kill your family.

And then, anyone your family's ever met.

Just shut up!

So you're not the traitor,

but you're still a complete fucking bitch

and you're a bad mother!

And what are you?

You couldn't even do that.

It's all you had to do.

Just that.

Genny would still be with us now.

Yeah, I've made my mistakes,

but I gave her life.

Made her strong.

A survivor.

What have you ever done?

Traitor.

Emma, what are you doing?

No traitors in Arcadia.

Emma, I lied.

You're just saying that

to save Genevieve's mother.

Tula doesn't want me anywhere near Genevieve!

It's better for me if she's dead!

Look, Emma, it's not her, I swear.

So if you want to shoot her...

Move out the way.

I will kill you both.

Emma.

I know people have fucked you up,

done proper, horrible things,

but if you shoot innocent people,

then aren't you like them?

Emma?

This isn't you.

So if you kill us,

I reckon they've won.

I left her in the loo to puke her guts out.

So that's how you knew to remove the tracker?

What?

It's you.

You need to start talking, now.

No.

No I don't.

Why did you do it?

Why?

Just tell me.

I can't lose you too.

Don't you get it, Ash?

You never had me.

Uh, guys?

There's something you need to see.

These are Emma's coordinates!

We're getting pulled into a fucking star!

Switch.

What's going on?

Alert.

Critical temperature level.

Alert.

Critical temperature level.

What's happening?

That's not one star, it's two.

I fly out of the grav,

I don't wanna get pulled into the other.

We need to activate the Alc drive, do a jump.

No, we're way too close to those two stars.

We'll destroy everything around us.

If Arcadia's out there...

Emma's clearly lost the plot.

We're here.

This is Arcadia's gate.

Arcadia's hidden between binary stars.

It's why the Commonworld can never find it.

We need to head straight for it.

Then we'll find Arcadia open.

Fly into a fucking star?

Fly through the gravity valley, you'll feel it.

I can't.

Handling's no good.

I keep getting pulled between them.

Your father did this on a ship twice this size.

It can be done.

I don't wanna die.

Ash, do the jump.

Ash, we're here and you're ready.

Make sure you're strapped in.

Manual override.

Why?

- Engaged. - Just strap in.

What the fuck are you doing, pig?

You lot, have a look at this.

I've got us here.

Told you I would.

Hurry up snitch, take us in!

We've got to find Genny.

We need to secure Verona first.

It was her.

She's the spy?

Where the fuck is she?

Snake.

Alert, escape pod jettisoned.

We can't let her escape.

It's too late.

She's gone.

We have been betrayed.

Betrayed not just by rebels, those that wish to destroy us

but also by our leadership

who ignored problems and let us grow weak.

But we, the people,

have taken back control of our Commonworld

and together we will steer it back on course

for the benefit of all.

We pledge to recover the means

to find new sources of new aurum

and we will destroy anyone who threatens our freedom.

Good job, ma'am.

We need to get moving.

Shit.

Incoming vessel.

Identify yourself.

Oh god, what now?

We're trying to land a Commonworld ship

on an ARC base mate, what do you think?

My name is Ash Harper,

daughter of Yann Harper.

We're Commonworld refugees seeking ARC's protection.

We have Dr. Emma Greaves on board.

Welcome home Ash.

Sit tight, we'll come and get you.

We've got resistance in Shanghai, Accra, La Paz...

Director Harper!

I've information on Emma Greaves.

The Hemlock's exact coordinates up until 30 minutes ago.

How do you know this?

I recruited an agent on board.

A spy.

Echo Nantu-Rose.

I told you there was a plan for us.

At last.

I'm home.
