[ Woman Narrating ]
"Previously on" Earth 2.

I've joined you on the planet.

[ Sighs ]
And I know you planned the crash.

But do you honestly think
I would aim weapons at you?

You know what I think?
I think you're a liar.

[ Man ] I don't say that we can't use
Adair and her crew, but they have to be guided.

They need you
to show them the way.

Loyalty- It's a tricky thing.

Can I count on you, Doctor?
Are you with us?

[ Drumming ]

[ Continues ] [Julia
Narrating ] Day 38.

7600 kilometers
from New Pacifica...

and so far from home
it's unimaginable.

They say loneliness
is the cruelest of friends.

Some handle it better than others.

Some not at all.

Most of us are finding it's a hard thing
to outrun on this planet.

I, for one,
find it especially hard,

having to harbor
the secrets that I do.

[ Ends ]

It's like fear of the dark
when you're young.

Only now being old enough
to know the dark is real,

and it's coming after you.

And maybe,

just maybe,

"it" is "you. "

Come on, Uly. We have
a lot of stuff to put away.

Mom? [ Pants ] Mom?

What is it, honey?

Honey, are you okay?

Yeah? Come on. We've
got lots of chores to do.

Come on.

Sure you're okay?

[ Bird Calls ]

[ Whirring, Beeping ]

On those Kemper one-tens,
a good bump will usually, uh,

lift the contacts
right off the power harness.

My father used these on the
mining drones back home. Ah.

You could get a better model.
Yes, I know.

[ Chuckles ]

You were an early inductee
in the Yale program, weren't you?

Yes. There's nothing to fear, Bess.

My mindwash has held quite well.
I've never had an aggressive tendency.

Well, I'm only asking, because, Yale
- Hmm?

I wanted to know if you had
any religious data on file.

The 99 widely
practiced ones, yes.

Catholicism?
Yes.

Good. I need to
make a confession.

A regular Catholic confession?

Yes. Bess, I can pull
up a prayer for you,

or a section of the Bible,
but I am not a priest.

I cheated on my husband, Yale.
At least in my mind,

and maybe in my heart, and I'm just
afraid that it's gonna go further.

No names, please.

Bess, it's human
to have random thoughts.

Sometimes it's indicative
of a problem in the relationship.

You need to focus
your attention there.

You think I should talk to Morgan
about this? Not in specific terms.

I understand you need to
clear your conscience,

but you should be careful
with whom you clear it.

[ Bird Chirping ]

Heller in.

Citizen Heller.

We'll dispense
with the formalities.

The boy's exhibiting traits...

attributable to his interactions
with the Terrians.

Is he aware of this?

Somewhat.

They know not what they have.

Do you know
what they have, Heller?

I'm not sure.

They have the key to this planet.

What do you mean?

We've known for years
we can't take this place.

We cannot sublimate
the Terrian population.

They have a symbiosis with the land,
an interdependency.

The very planet would die
without them.

Which is counter to a healthy,
expansionist movement, isn't it?

And you think the boy provides
the ability to take the planet?

The boy is touched.

Suppose we could take the essence
of how he has changed-

duplicate it, control it.

And then give a home to all of those
desolate people "fl"oating in space.

And how do you propose to acquire
the essence of how the boy has changed?

There's a place
at the base of all of our brains,

which, for hundreds of years,
science has speculated...

is the location of the human soul.

That's never been fully proven,
that the pineal gland is that.

This is where the change begins.

How do you know?

Twelve years ago, I found that
to be the case on a convict child.

I tried to remove it myself.

Are you out of your mind?

Oh, no.
No, most certainly not.

However, I have but a fraction of the
medical expertise of someone like yourself.

And that is why you
will harvest it from the boy.

And do not plead medical ethics
with me, Doctor.

You are a prodigy of the system.

The system owns your ethical choices.

Morgan?

You awake?
Uh-uh.

Morgan, have you ever had
thoughts about other women?

What?
Other women, Morgan.

You know what it means.

Bess, you know you're the only
woman in the world for me.

Course, I never thought that would
be quite so literal. [ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ] Six total women,
Bess. Morgan, please.

You've never once had
thoughts about anyone else?

Bess, what is this?
Some kind of a test?

I mean, have you ever had
thoughts about anyone else?

It wouldn't mean that I
didn't love you, even if I did.

That was a rhetorical question, Bess.

Yeah, I know, but just
for the sake of discussion, if I-

You're telling me that you're having
an affair. I am not having an affair!

Great. Tell the whole world. Morgan,
thoughts don't constitute an affair.

Oh, you're thinking
about having an affair.

What are you doing? You planning it
all out? You asking for my permission?

No, I'm not planning it.
I'm not asking for your permission.

They were random thoughts,
and I thought we could talk about them.

Okay. Who is it, Bess?

If you think for one minute
that I'm going to sit here...

and listen to my wife
talking about...

her wanton desires
for another man-

It's somebody here.
That's not important, Morgan.

What's important is us.
Oh, great.

Another man that I happen to be on an
extended camping trip from hell with.

Probably seen me naked.
Morgan, what are you talking about?

What are you doing?

I have a reputation to uphold.

I'm not going to idly wallow
in front of this entire planet...

while my wife decides
whose nest to feather.

- I'm taking a spare tent.
- Morgan, I'm not deciding anything.

I love you. Morgan!

[ Sighs ]

[ Bird Calls ]
[ Sighs ]

Hey, Martin. Feel free to pitch in
whenever you get the urge.

Urge, Danziger?
Is that some kind of crack?

Are you okay?

Oh, don't even try it.
Don't even try it.

"Oh, I'm just a simple sleep jumper,
skipping around the universe.

I really don't know anything. "

Have you been in virtual
all day again?

Oh, you're all just going on
with your little game.

"Old Morgan,just a level four liaison.
He doesn't know anything. "

What, that you're fighting
with your wife?

Aha. How'd you know that?

Well, you're hunting
for a new home, aren't you?

[ Chuckles ]

Well, physically, I think he's okay.
It's his emotional state.

He's been distant and withdrawn
for the last, oh, three, four days.

Was he frightened by anything?

Actually, earlier today
he was frightened by something.

He said he was
turning into a Terrian.

We'll run a cell scan.
Check him on the molecular level.

Why a cell scan? Just to see how
deep the changes to his health run.

Maybe his emotional state is tied to the
rapid physical changes he's going through.

Okay.

[ Yale, Indistinct ] [ True ] Yeah.

Citizen.

I'm gonna run a test on the boy.
Analyze some spinal fluid.

[ Man On Headset ]
Why is that?

Because I'm not about
to harvest organs...

on a random guess by some maniac
with a sharp spoon.

Are you referencing me?

I'm "fl"attered.

How will you test his spinal "fl"uid
for Terrian characteristics?

[Julia ]
That won't be difficult.

I have access to Terrian remains.

Don't let this opportunity
pass us by, Heller.

If the boy is what we think he is, the
chance may never present itself again.

Yes, I know.

Heller out.
[ Beeps ]

[ Morgan ]
It's simple self-respect.

I can't just ignore it.
Pretend everything's,

"Oh, fine, great, good, thank you, yes,
we're fine, and how are you?"

I mean, the sanctimonious hypocrisy
of it all. I can't live that way.

Martin, you're a politician.

Yeah, but with Bess
it's supposed to be different.

She's supposed to be
a haven from all of that.

Maybe she still is.

You said she only thought
about this other guy.

It's not me, believe me.

Yeah, well, how do you know?
I mean, maybe she hasn't told you yet.

I'd know. Okay?

Yeah, well, it doesn't matter.

Thinking about it,
that's the beginning of the end.

I know that from experience.

Well, it's-

There's this previous
marital contract I had.

Bess doesn't even know about it.
I had it wiped from the station records.

It only lasted for three months.

And this three-month wife
cheated on you?

Well, vice versa, kind of.

But that's how I know
how important this is.

Well, whatever it is,
it can't be cheating.

I mean, Morgan, you're
not even married anymore.

What do you mean
we're not married?

What'd you take? The minimum
four-year contract, right?

Right, and we've only
been married for two.

Plus 22- the cold-sleep
years it took to get here.

That's ridiculous.
We weren't even awake.

[ Chuckles ]
Station time.

They don't care whether
you're awake or not.

Uly, is there anything
you wanna tell Julia?

You can tell her anything,
even if you think it's silly.

I know. [Julia ] I'm
gonna take some spinal fluid.

You're gonna have
to stay very still, okay?

[ Beeping ]

I'm sure this is all
gonna check out fine.

It's only gonna take a second.
Okay, Uly?

[Julia ]
All right.

[Julia ]
Have you been sleeping okay?

- Yeah.
- How's your appetite?

[ Uly ]
Pretty good.

There you go.
Not too bad, huh?

See, that was easy,
wasn't it, honey?

[ Bird Calls ]

[ Birds Chirping ]

Can I talk to you
for a second?

Okay.

So, you wanna tell me
who this guy is now?

Why, Morgan?
So you can throw a tantrum?

I told you"- who" is not the issue.
We are the issue.

And if you'd rather interrogate me
than talk to me, you can forget it.

It's not how marriages work.

It's certainly not how
our marriage used to work.

Well, maybe that's
the key there, Bess.

Used to, as in lapsed.

Morgan, what are you talking about?
We've been married for two years.

How can we be lapsed?
We're lapsed, Bess.

Don't be so naive.

Marital contracts
do not suspend in cold sleep.

It's station time that counts.

Morgan, we're not on the stations,
so who cares? Well, I care.

I care.
I work for these people.

If I wanna go back home on that colony ship,
I have to make sure everything is in order.

Two years,
22 years in cold sleep.

We've lapsed five times, Bess.

You're really saying
that we're not married, Morgan.

Technically? No, we're not.

Okay. What about-

What about beyond
technically, Morgan?

There is no beyond technically, Bess.

I could jeopardize everything I've worked for on
those stations if I ignore something like this.

What are you saying, Morgan?

Do you or do you not
wanna renew?

Do you?

Maybe you should leave, Morgan.

Come on. I'm not the one who's
out there looking for other partners.

Morgan, leave. Okay. I'll
go back and get some clothes.

Now, Morgan!

[ Sighs ]

Everything I knew,
every person in my life,

I abandoned for him.

Twice, actually. Once, when
I left Earth for the stations,

and then again, to come here.

You know, he didn't even make the trip
down to Earth to say good-bye to my father.

Said he would join me the next day,
then holo-called from the stations.

Actually blamed it on you.

Said there was some sort of emergency
meetings about clearances or something.

It doesn't matter, Devon.
I, um-

I knew he didn't wanna come down.
He hated Earth.

Said it wasn't his kind of people.

You know, before we left the stations,
I read your biostats.

Why?

Well, when I was a kid
growing up on the stations,

I used to pretend
I was an Earth res.

See, I- I thought it was
so much more... exotic.

Kind of romantic.

And I knew that my parents
would never let me visit down,

so I used to imagine
what life must have been like.

Survival, life and death,
wild, lawless passion.

Well, mostly, um-
mostly survival and death.

Of course, we'd hear about your family
off the satellites all the time.

The stations that your father designed.

I actually thought you must have been
some kind of princess.

A princess? Hardly.

Still, I never imagined
I'd be sitting on another planet,

talking to you
about my failing marriage.

You know, Bess,
you have a lot to be proud of.

You come from a good background.

And I'm sure there's a lot of good
in Morgan as well.

There must be if a woman
like you married him.

My father never understood
why I fell in love...

with a man who
couldn't look him in the eye,

but he never once
made me feel bad about it.

If I learned one thing
from my father,

I learned to look life in the eye.

Mistakes and all.

Maybe Morgan was a mistake.

I just don't think it's my ultimate
purpose to be made a cuckold...

on some distant ball of dirt
in the middle of nowhere.

So, you're gonna end
the relationship with your wife,

because she might have thought
of another man?

I tried talking him out of it.
With all due respect, Martin,

you should count your blessings, pal.

That's very nice, Danziger, but if I
thought you were the final answer on all matters,

I'd be out here asking for your advice
instead of conducting an investigation.

[ Wings Fluttering ] [
Alonzo ] Keep your voice down.

Okay, guys.
Look, we're all men here.

I just wanna say that if any of you have
had "fl"irtatious interludes with Bess,

or know of anyone who has,

I would appreciate it if you wouldjust
come clean and tell me right now.

Nobody has anything to come clean
about, Martin. You're on a witch hunt.

The answer is your own insecurity.

You know what you're gonna find
at the end of your investigation?

Loneliness.

[ Beeping ]

Gear log, research entry.
Coded.

The boy's spinal "fl"uid definitely
exhibits slightly altered D.N.A"... "

but shows no parallels
with the alien remains.

Electrical charges
produce no molecular alignment,

even with cellular activity boosted.

Suspect subject to be-
[ Rapping ]

Julia?

Uly, what are you doing here?

Am I gonna be okay?

Yes, of course you are.

Why are you even
asking that question?

Maybe it was better
when I was sick.

You know, maybe things
were supposed to stay that way.

Uly, sometimes things
happen for a reason.

Sometimes that reason
is difficult to see.

Sometimes it means a sacrifice.

What you're going through now is gonna
help all the other Syndrome children.

Maybe everyone on the stations.

You'd make a sacrifice if you knew
that millions of other people...

could lead a better life,
wouldn't you?

I know I would.

I guess.

Okay. Let's not worry about it
too much then.

Everything's gonna be okay.

[ Rapping ]

So you're opposed?

I just think it would be wise
to consider all the options...

before taking such a drastic step.

What's to consider?

Well, you do remember the Faith Wars
at the end of the 21 st century?

I'm aware that most of the pineal gland
experiments conducted on P.O.W.'s...

during that altercation
had unfortunate results.

Unfortunate results? Half died
or devolved into baseline primates.

They were vicious, soulless
animals. And halflived.

They were P.O.W.'s or they
might have lived productive lives.

Look, we both know
what's at stake here.

Can you get the boy alone long enough
to perform the procedure, or not?

I don't know.
Probably, but-

Think of this as history.

This is our destiny.
The boy has been provided for us.

The entire future of humanity rests
on your ability to see the long view now.

To see past the meager bonds
you might have formed with this boy.

Don't be so foolish
as to ignore fate.

Neither yours nor his.

[ Sighs ]

I won't ignore it.

[ Sighs ]

Morgan, what are you doing?

Um, I'm, uh, pretty short
on supplies out there,

and, uh-

Well- Okay.

I want you to tell me
that this is the right thing.

You want me to tell you whether
your decision is right or wrong?

Well, actually, I-

I was hoping that you would tell me
what you're feeling.

Fine, I'll tell you.

I think we've-

I think we've
made a mistake, Morgan.

Okay. I think maybe we-

I don't think we ever
should have gotten married.

You what?

You don't?

How could you just
say that, Bess?

How many words have you uttered
to my father in your life, Morgan?

Well, Bess, I was marrying you,
not your father.

How many?

Well, it's not like we never spoke. I mean
- You despised him,

because he was an Earth miner.

What was it you used to say?
Uh, N.O.C.D.

Not Our Class, Dear.

You did everything you could to get me
to renounce where I came from.

Bess, this is not
about my views on Earth...

or how I did or didn't
get along with your father.

It's about foundation, Morgan,
and trust and honesty.

None of which we seem
to have an abundance of.

So, maybe you should just
turn around,

and we'll get on
with our separate lives.

- Bess.
- I mean it, Morgan.

[ Grunts ]

[ Device Hisses ]
[ Grunts ]

[ Morgan ]
I had a career to consider.

You know how people will use anything
on the stations to destroy you.

Mm-hmm.
And a marital contract tie to Earth?

That's just the thing they need to pass
you over for a level jump at review.

I took a risk even marrying Bess.
Big risk.

Still, I don't know how I'm
gonna live without her though.

She's the only thing
that's kept me sane.

She's the only person
who's ever really believed in me.

It's so hard to hear her say
she wants somebody else.

So, fix it then.

Gear log, research entry.

Molecular activity is normal,

Further verifying boy's tie

Unsure whether the species
has indication of the procedure.

[ Beeps ] Boy's energy output
at the pineal gland increased tenfold.

Alonzo?

It's his heart.

He'll die.

If you harvest this boy,
we all die.

He's a link.
A link to what?

Humanity's survival.

He's the first in a long line
of evolutionary changes,

and without these changes,
we will perish.

The Terrians are providing these changes?
The Terrians are witnessing them,

the same way they did in their own kind
millions of years ago.

What you're about to do
poses the greatest threat...

to our own survival as a species.

[ Beeping ] [ Reilly On
Headset ] Heller? Heller.

I know you're on.
I'm receiving gear signal.

Heller, sign on.
I want a report.

Heller? Heller, sign on.

[ Bird Calls ]

You guys haven't seen
Morgan, have you?

I think he was up before sunrise.

Can't imagine him walking off
by himself alone though.

Yeah, that's not really
like him, is it?

So, Bess, are you gonna tell us
who the lucky guy is?

Funny, guys.

Oh, sorry.

Are you all right?
Yeah.

You look like
you've seen a ghost.

I just didn't sleep well is all.

Were you dreaming?
No.

You?
No.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Julia, I'm wondering whether you
should check on Devon and Uly.

I've never seen them
sleep so late.

Well, I'm sure if they're sleeping late,
they probably need it.

It's not as if I harbor
any kind of animosity toward-

It's just that-
[ Sighs ]

It's a question
of common ground.

Perhaps if things had been a little
different between us from the beginning-

[ Sighs ]

[ Beeps ]

[ Sighs ]
It's not right.

Okay.
[ Beeping ]

Try again.
[ Breathes Deeply ]

Say we were to meet now,
for the first time,

and you were to ask me,

as you did some years ago
when Bess first brought me down,

"What is it about my daughter,
Mr. Martin,

that makes you want
to take her station-side?"

and I were to say-

[ Sighs ]

something better than I did.

[ Sighs ] I'm
- I'm not very good at this.

[ Beeps ]

[ Morgan ] I'm sorry I didn't do
this in person while you were alive.

Truth is, I didn't know
how to talk to you.

I was afraid, I guess.

I was afraid that you would
see right through me,

that you would tell Bess
that I was really some sort of fraud.

[ Breathes Deeply ] It was like a
dream, falling in love with Bess,

and I always thought that someone
would come along and burst it.

I thought for sure you would.

I held my breath, I prayed.

I still pray.

And when she told me
her thoughts about someone else,

I said, "It's over. "

Because every day I wait for someone
to come along and burst the dream,

take away my life and tell me
that I don't deserve any of it.

Oh, I always thought that Bess...

was going to lose interest
in me some day,

and I suppose maybe I've-

I've made that happen.

I can't imagine life without her.

She, uh, still wears...

that pendant that you gave her.

I heard you say that it would
always remind you of her.

I-

Last wild"fl"ower on Earth.

[ Beeps ]

[ Whispers ]
Bess.

Bess, I-
Shh.

Ask me.

What?
Ask me, Morgan.

Bess, will you...
marry me?

[ Beeping ]

How long since you last
tried to wake him?

Um, about 20 minutes.

And he didn't regain
full consciousness?

He seems to be fighting for it,
but he was never really fully awake.

You know, I had a hard time
waking up today as well.

Walman reported the same.

He's fine.
His body just needs to rest.

Neuro-scan indicates
he's already started to climb.

He'll be awake in a couple of hours.
Probably just a mild form of shock.

Shock? Shock?
What from?

Traumatic event. Probably
a delayed reaction to the planet.

The fact that we crashed, uh, the radical
changes in his basic level of health.

Five weeks on this planet.
He's been through a lot.

[ Chuckles ] I feel like I've
been through 20 lifetimes already.

Devon, I assure you.
He'll be fine.

By this afternoon,
he is gonna be antsy and bored.

I'll call you when he wakes up.

Come on.

[ Devon ]
All right.

Man wasn't meant
to live alone, boys.

Ah, sure, we think of ourselves
as pillars of strength,

tall oaks reaching for the heavens,

but I'll tell you
- there's nothing like the love of a woman.

It'll see you through the darkest nights,
the deepest plagues.

It feeds you when you wanna die,

cleans your socks when you think
there's nothing left to live for.

Piece of advice for you guys.
Don't dally around.

You're on a planet of, what-
not counting biped lizards and convicts-

five, six available women?

Martin,you decide on a term yet?

A term.
A commitment term?

Yale needs to know
for the ceremony.

Oh, a term.

Gear log, research entry.
Coded.

The atmospheric conditions
on this planet...

seem to slow the healing properties
of the cytokine on the laser scar.

I'm hoping the scar will be gone
within eight hours...

or at least before detection
by Eden group.

[ Chattering ]

Trauma reaction
was greater than expected.

It's been 10 hours and the boy
is still in unconscious rise.

The only concern
will be his level of recall.

Devon.

How are you feeling?
Everything's okay.

Hi, honey.
Hi. You feeling okay?

Mm-hmm.
Oh.

[ Yale ] Matrimony has always
been a momentous occasion in our lives.

Even after the contract renewal acts
of the late 21 st century,

designed to strengthen birth rates in
Earth's environmentally red-tagged areas,

marriage remained a deeply emotional
and soulful commitment.

Now, in this new world,
at this new beginning,

the couple standing before us
has vowed to renew that bond,

and to do so
with such ardent passion...

so as to forego
station and Earth contract law,

and pledge to one another
a lifelong commitment,

made free of encumbrances
and wrought with love alone.

If any in this community
wish to dissent,

speak now,
and deal with me.

Morgan Horatio Martin,
Bess Amelia Klempt,

do you take this commitment
in hand and in heart,

and in the presence of one another,
until death do you part?

[ Together]
We do.

And so, uh, to the inhabitants
of this new world,

I present, once again,
Morgan and Bess Martin.

You may kiss your wife.

[ Yale Laughs ]
[ Clapping ]

[ Chattering ]

You were right.
The change does start there.

When I opened the boy's cranium
for the removal, there was no pineal.

What? That's impossible. There's
evidence that one existed,

but I believe the changes affected it
well beyond our limited understanding.

I'll continue to monitor the boy.

I'm sure that his symbiosis
with the Terrians will only deepen.

In two years, the 250 Syndrome children
that followed your group...

will arrive to colonize this planet.

What do you think will happen
if they all take this change?

If the change starts with the Syndrome
children, it's an evolutionary step.

And if we don't have the ability
to harness this evolutionary change?

How would you recommend to the Council
we maintain control of this planet?

Maybe we all better face the fact
that those Syndrome children,

those outcasts of the station,

will have a very powerful position
on this planet.

And there's probably very little
you or I could ever do about it.

[ Sighs ]

Stay close to the boy.

[Julia Narrating ]
As a species, we've come a long way.

We've learned how to control everything,
from D.N.A. to matrimony.

As a group, we're still trying
to figure out whether we'll make it.

We learn more
about our limits every day.

Even if that means telling a simple lie
to protect a boy's life.

Your idea or hers,
the no-limit marriage?

Well, he made an offer
of a hundred years.

She countered with forever.

Good. A hundred years is nothing.
Goes by like that. Trust me.

[ No Audible Dialogue ]

Hi there.
Hi.

How are you feeling?
Okay.

How come you're not dancing?

It's not every day you get to dance
to 250-year-old music, you know.

I know.

Would you dance with me?

I don't know.
Come on.

Come on.
Okay.

[Julia Narrating ] We've had more success
than any animal in the universe controlling life.

We create it artificially.
We mimic it with computers.

Yet we still don't know
what it is that really makes it tick.

What keeps life lunging forward,

desperately screaming for survival?

What drives us to chase ourselves
off our own planet,

onto floating cans in space,

and then finally across the universe
to start again in someone else's home?

Maybe there are some things
we'll never know.

And maybe the key is
to know what those things are...

and to leave them alone.
