(foreboding music)

(dramatic music)

- [Will] We’re under
heavy enemy fire.

Taking evasive maneuvers now.

(beeping)

- [Aiden] Sensors are
online, keep her steady.

We should be good pops.

(dramatic music)

- [Will] Hey, this is not good.

Find us a way outta here.

- [Aiden] I’m working on it.

Look out.

(dramatic music continues)
(shooting continues)

There’s a warm hole
not too far from here.

Straight ahead.

- [Will] Can we make that?

- [Aiden] If you step on it.

- [Will] Hold on to something.

(dramatic music continues)
(beeping)

I need a visual
on that wormhole.

- [Aiden] 200 meters,

12 o’clock.

(dramatic music continues)
(shooting continues)

- [Will] Aiden,
it’s now and never.

- [Aiden] 100 meters.

- [Will] Hyper
thrusters engaged.

(dramatic music)
(shooting continues)

This is it.

- [Aiden] Punch it.

(dramatic music)
(shooting continues)

(knocking)

- Yes?

- I need those hard readings
on the Nevada telescope.

- It’s Wednesday.

- What’s that supposed to mean?

- It means that I haven’t
gotten to those just yet.

- [Synthia] But we
need those numbers

to report to the board.

- And?

- And you were told

today was the day we
needed those numbers.

- Okay, well first and foremost,

let me congratulate you on being

the biggest bitch in
the entire building.

Second, I’m one man.

One man.

If you think you can
monitor those readings

and deliver data calibrations
between the ISS and Houston,

well I’d love to see you try.

- You can’t talk to me that way.

- Well, I just did.

So.

- How long do you need?

- I’ll have ’em on your
desk by the end of the day.

- I’ll let everyone
upstairs know.

- Thanks.

(soft music)

- Sharp?

What the hell are you doing?

- Nothing.

- Andromeda.

The program was shut down
16 months ago, correct?

- That’s right.

- It was redacted to the point

where it otherwise
never existed, yeah?

- Correct.

- Then how do you explain this?

You were told by my predecessor

to destroy all evidence that
the program even existed

yet archives has no inventory
of the items on that list.

Do you care to explain that?

- I had those servers destroyed

just as I was instructed to do.

- Yes, but the
data was backed up

and there’s something
on there called

the neuro inhibitor.

Sounds ominous.

- Archives should have
told you about any backup.

- McGrady was your partner
under William Crawford

and the Andromeda program.

McGrady works Archives now.

Do you see what I’m getting at?

You better take this down there

and make sure he knows
what you’re doing.

There’s pressure from
the kind of people

that are elected into
office, not appointed.

We’ve been able to keep
those lives a secret

the last year and a half.

In this age of whistleblowers
and the dark web,

we cannot leave
anything to chance.

Do I make myself clear?

- I’ve dedicated
26 years of my life

and ruined two marriages
for this project.

- Then you should know
that after this discussion,

there aren’t any
more discussions.

They’re waiting on me in DC.

Take care of this now.

- McGrady.

- Sharp.

What the heck are
you doing down here?

- Could ask you the same thing.

- Well, they had me logging
telescopes in Nevada.

Far cry from the old
gig to say the least.

- I thought that was

Synthia’s job.

- It was.

It’s mine now.

She mostly just bugs me for
data every three weeks or so.

- So

archives.

- The one and only,

how’s things on seven?

- Mmm.

Stimulating.

- At least you have
windows, fresh air.

Sometimes, I forget what
time of day it is in there.

Do you miss it?

- Let’s grab a coffee.

- It’s bad, but.

(chuckling)

- Sorry I didn’t get
to speak with you

after we left the
office that day.

I didn’t know things
were gonna get this bad.

- Don’t worry about it.

I know how things
work around here.

- Listen, you asked me
if I ever missed it.

Yeah,

every day.

What about you?

- It’s the excitement mostly,

the idea that you get
to wake up every morning

and have no clue what to expect.

The feeling you get when
you look up at the sky and

you know there’s so
much more out there

than anyone here
will ever understand.

- Yeah, we were pioneers.

It’s hard to accept the
fact that all of our ideas

and research are trapped
in these buildings.

What was that song that
William used to play?

- In his office or--

- No no, no, on the Monet.

What the hell was that song?

(funky music)

- Must have been before my time.

Is that what you wanted
to talk to me about?

- No, there’s something else.

Any of that look familiar?

- Yeah.

This is a metadata
file from Andromeda.

- You were supposed to
destroy all that stuff.

- You told me to keep the
neuro inhibiter somewhere safe.

That’s exactly what I did.

The machine kept sending ratings

till one day it just stopped.

- Well, who made the backups?

- [McGrady] I don’t know.

- What do you mean
you don’t know?

Who else had access
to those files?

- [McGrady] Just me.

- No, that’s impossible.

- I swear it.

Look, I did what
you told me to do.

Everything but the
actual machine is gone.

- No, it can’t be.

What do you think
they’re doing up there?

(ominous music)

- [Will] Aiden, I think we need

to talk about what
happened out the other day.

- [Aiden] It wasn’t my fault.

- [Will] I didn’t
say that it was,

but it’s becoming more
and more dangerous

for us to stay on Algos.

- [Aiden] You think
we should leave?

But we’ve come so far.

- [Will] Not we.

You.

- [Aiden] And where would I go?

- [Will] We need help.

There will be more attacks,
I can’t lose you out here.

- [Aiden] You’re talking
about sending me back.

I thought that was impossible.

- [Will] That’s
not entirely true.

There may be a way after all.

There’s an ancient
technology I discovered here

when I first entered Andromeda,

telekinetic holography.

It was presented to
me by an alien species

on distant planet.

- [Aiden] Time travel?

- [Will] Not exactly.

I was taught that
with enough raw energy

infused into the prodigy chip,

you can appear to
be in one place

while still physically
being in another.

It’s the building blocks of
what drives the neuro inhibitor.

- [Aiden] So why are
you telling me this?

- [Will] You have
to go back to Earth

in the kinetic sense.

Find Sharp and McGrady

and get them to bring you out.

- [Aiden] What, why?

- [Will] Because you,
me and the projections

aren’t going to be able
to fight off our enemies

for much longer.

We need reinforcements.

- [Aiden] Reinforcement?

- [Will] Show the people in
charge that you’re alive.

Convince them to come join us.

Strength in numbers is the
only way to save Algos.

- [Aiden] And what if
they don’t agree to come?

- [Will] One look at Aiden
Crawford back from the dead,

they will.

(soft music)

(phone vibrating)

(traffic whirring)

(phone vibrating)

- Hello?

- [McGrady] You messaged me,

you said meet you here.

Said it was urgent.

- No, you messaged me

and how’d you even get in here?

- My key card’s still worked.

You did message me.

I have it right here.

- Here I’ll show you
what you sent me.

That’s weird.

What’s going on?

- I don’t know.

- Deja vu.

(soft music)

It’s that sense of having
already seen something

coupled with knowing you
haven’t actually seen it,

which is why it
catches you off guard.

It’s nice to see you too guys.

- How is this possible?

- Telekinetic holography.

- [McGrady] A recognizer.

- That’s right.

- Wait, how the hell
did you know that?

- William told me about it.

It was the first
thing he programmed

into the neuro inhibitor

after he returned from
that first mission.

But how are you able
to pull this off

without destroying half
the planet in the process?

You must be projecting
from somewhere close

but not too close.

Otherwise we’d all be dead.

- You man the
physics don’t add up?

- [McGrady] That’s right.

- We rewrote the laws.

Pretty simple actually.

- You know what,
nevermind all that.

Aiden, we tried to make
contact with you after MB 22.

You never replied and
the department shut down

the program indefinitely.

Why didn’t you return
any of our messages?

- Guys, so much has happened.

(exciting music)

After the attack on MB 22,

my father and I colonized
planet after planet

in hopes that one
of these new worlds

could become Earth’s new home.

(exciting music continues)

Every species we encountered
warned us of the same thing,

that our enemies would
not stop hunting us.

We would never be safe.

They were right.

We had no choice.

We left MB 22 behind

and jumped a wormhole to
the far side of Andromeda,

two million light
years from Earth.

(exciting music continues)

But even there

we fought battles
with new enemies.

(exciting music continues)
(shooting)

- Wormhole?

- Yes, wormhole theory is real.

- Einstein was right.

- So did you eventually
find us a new home?

- We did.

My father named it Algos.

We lived there for a while
with the projections.

My father found a way to
spawn more projections

and before we knew it,

we had a sprawling
port within our reach.

- [Sharp] A port?

- Algos was created
as a space station.

Oxygen docking stations.

We nearly had it
ready for humans

to start the migration process.

- We told you already,

the program’s been
eliminated completely.

There’s new leadership here

and no one will
listen to us now.

- They will

if we show them what
we have up there.

- And how are we gonna do that?

- Then neuro inhibitor.

- But you’re not real

and no one else can use
that machine besides you

unless you can find
a way to come back

in your physical form.

Wait, wait a minute.

What aren’t you telling us?

Why did your father send
you back here alone?

- Something found us on Algos.

(soft music)

My father and the projections
were working on a way

to manage the wind
shears on the planet.

(exciting music)

We knew that no human
transport could land

without the right stabilizers.

They were nearly there.

I was on the last of my patrols

when I saw it appear in the sky.

(exciting music continues)

The mothership.

- A mothership?

- It’s massive,

armed to the teeth
with one purpose,

its own defense.

- So what happened next?

- All out war.

A slaughter really.

My father and I
took off on our ship

and just barely made it out
by the skin of our teeth.

Projections weren’t so lucky.

- So this Algos,

is it, is it lost?

- Maybe.

- [Sharp] Maybe?

- I have a plan.

- You care to share it with us?

- You still have
the neuro inhibitor?

- [McGrady] At home, yeah.

- Good.

You bring it back here.

And Sharp, you get
us an audience.

- How am I supposed to do that?

We’ve both been demoted.

I work in standards
and procedures now.

And McGrady here
works in the basement

of the old archives building.

- You just get the powers
that be in this room

and I’ll handle the rest.

Please.

Guys, after everything
we’ve been through,

this is our last and
absolute best chance.

- You want us

to try and convince NASA

to open the Andromeda
program back up?

What do you think,

they’re just gonna hand
us back over the keys?

Why would?

- Maybe when they see Aiden
Crawford risen from the dead.

- And how do we know
that’s gonna be enough?

- It was for you.

- Persuasive when
he wants to be.

- Sharp, have a call
with the NSA diplomat

to NATO in 10 minutes.

You have five.

Go.

- Andromeda.

- Never heard of it.

- Come on, that’s not
gonna fly with me.

It’s the last thing
you spoke with me about

when you were in here.

- With all due respect, Joe,

I think you’ve wandered a
little past your pay grade

and didn’t I ask you
to get with McGrady

and tie that off
once and for all?

- What if I told you that
the program could work,

that it did in fact work.

- Worked?

We have two dead bodies
thanks to that program

and almost a dozen more
still unaccounted for.

- Aiden Crawford is alive.

His father William is as well.

- What is this?

- There really aren’t
sufficient words to describe it.

You best suited

to see it with your
own eyes in person.

- So what?

Joe,

I’m due to retire

next year

and believe me,

I need my pension.

But if you think
I’m gonna sit here

and let you dangle me with this.

- He just wants an audience.

That’s all he’s asking.

- Who?

Alright,

after the NSA meeting
word come down,

weed will be the
first crop to go,

followed by corn,

and soy after that.

I’ll meet you after.

Where?

- In the same room
where this all began.

- [Aiden] Nice beard by the way.

- Oh, thank you.

- You know you’d be surprised

how long it takes to
grow a beard in space.

- Yeah, I’ll bet.

- So what’s wrong with it?

- It’s been in my basement
for a year and a half.

She needs a little love.
- Hmm?

Wait, a year and a half?
- Yeah.

Why?

Wait, time moves more slowly
out there, doesn’t it?

- Who won the World Series?

- [McGrady] The
Yankees, who else?

- Figures.

Hey, what about Oscar
for best picture?

- Some film about a
shark in a lake in Texas.

- What?
- Yeah, I didn’t see it.

I heard it was terrible.

Oh, the mainframe is fried.

I’m gonna have to
take her apart.

- How long will that take?

- [McGrady] A couple
of hours, why?

- There’s someone
else I need to see.

- You can’t leave.

I mean, can you?

I’m asking.

- I’ll be back by the time
you’re done with that thing.

- Oh wait.

(soft music)

- [Will] Will it work?

Can I change their
minds all at once?

I’ve come all this way?

Maybe it’s best
he never returns.

Maybe they’re not ready.

Maybe you were
right all this time,

the marks left
behind by my species

are too often only scars.

(speaking in alien language)

- [Aiden] Hello, Rebecca.

- Aiden?

- It’s me.

- Hello.

After what you’ve done to me,
all you can say is, hello?

- Can I sit?

- Hello no you can’t sit.

You’re dead.

Oh Lord have mercy,

I am losing my mind.

- I’m not dead either.

I’m what we call a
telekinetic apparition.

I’m not even really in this
room to be honest with you.

- You are not real.

This isn’t happening.

You are dead.

I saw the news,

drowned in that bathtub
in your apartment.

- Please if I could just sit?

I am sure you have questions.

- Just one.

How?

- You know I once sat right here

just like this across from you

and you told me that you knew
with every fiber of your soul

that people want to get better.

Do you remember that?

But people,

people are happy to
run in place forever.

- Probably not.

So you just think you can appear
in and outta people’s lives

whenever you feel like?

- We have to allow
ourselves to be seen

by the people who
really care about us.

For me, that was you.

I knew it when you
sat right there

and pleaded with me
to rethink the idea

of never coming
back to this place.

Your caring about
what happens to me is,

is the reason I came back.

- After you left,

I took a break from my practice.

You are the only person
that I couldn’t help

in some way, shape, or form.

That was a tough
pill to swallow.

No pun intended.

- But you did help.

And I’m here to say thank you.

- So now what?

- [Aiden] What do you mean?

- You just get up
from that chair

and just disappear
into thin air or

return to wherever
you came from?

- Like I said, I’m not really
here on earth with you.

I’m someplace I hope
you get to see one day.

You know what I noticed
while I was gone?

Machines are a lot
simpler than people.

When you break a machine,

it’s a lot less
complicated to fix.

- Aiden,

will I ever see you again?

- I don’t know Doc,

but I sure hope so.

(Sharp clears throat)

- What the hell happened to it?

- I had to refresh
some cache files.

This thing got pretty beat
up over the last year or so.

- Where the hell’s Aiden?

- [McGrady] He had
to run an errand.

- He what?

- Yeah, he said he
had to see somebody.

He’d be right back though.

- And you just let him leave?

- Well, what the heck
was I supposed to do?

It isn’t exactly
up to me, you know,

besides, I think he
could walk through walls

if he wanted to.

- Norris is on his way
down here right now

and he’s expecting to
see some next level shit,

and you’re telling me you
have no idea where Aiden’s at?

- What’s this?

- That’s the

neuro inhibitor.

- The one the program
asked you to destroy.

- Sir, I can explain.

- [Norris] Where is he?

- He’s not here.

- Wait, he’s not
actually in the building?

- He was.

- What’d you do, lose him?

He’s not a dog.

- [McGrady] He’ll
be here any minute.

- I don’t have time for this.

Sharp, you had your time.

Get rid of all this shit now.

- [Aiden] It’s Norris, right?

- It can’t be.

- Norris, allow me to introduce
you to Aiden Crawford.

- We buried you.

I was there.

I saw them lower your
casket into the dirt.

- I’m sorry to disappoint.

My body is still about 10,000
light years from Earth.

It’s the closest I could get

without affecting the actual
physics of the planet.

- Aiden projecting himself takes
a massive amount of energy.

If he were to try it any closer,

it’d be like the equivalent
of 10 atomic bombs

detonating all at once.

- Aiden is still plugged
into the Andromeda program.

What you see of him
here as a live hologram.

- Telekinetic holography,
I’ve been to the archives,

I’ve read the files.

- So you know why I’m here.

- To be honest, I
thought it was a farce.

- The Andromeda program worked.

My father and I have
found a new home

for the people of Earth.

- Confirmed?

- [Aiden] Seen it
with my own two eyes.

- They called it Algos.

Aiden came back at his father’s
discretion in hopes that

we send reinforcements.

- For what purpose?

- To help defend
earth’s new home.

- You want me to authorize
a deleted program

so that you and your dead
dad can start a galactic war?

Are you kidding me right now?

- Please.
- No,

you listen to me.

I don’t know where you are,

but wherever that is,

you should stay.

What’s to say,

you even coming to us for help

doesn’t set off
a chain of events

that brings William’s
enemies down here

looking to cut the
head off the snake.

- That’s impossible.

- Is it?

You’ve got a dead man standing
right here in front of you.

Nothing is impossible!

- So we build
another prodigy chip?

- Well, I stand corrected,
that is impossible.

- He’s right, Aiden.

The only person possible

building another
prodigy chip is William.

- Okay, there’s a,

there’s a wormhole on
the far side of Titan.

- [Norris] Saturn, really?

- You can’t see it
from here on Earth,

but if you can get me there,

we can go back and
forth together.

- Worm holes are
impossible to find.

No one knows when and
where one will show up.

- My father proved
wormhole theory is real.

I can show you.

- We have mock coordinates,
readings, you name it.

- This is ludicrous.

Forget all that.

You were the only person
left on the planet

that could use this
neuro inhibitor.

- Okay, so you bring
me out of Andromeda

by using the wormhole.

You bring the neuro
inhibitor there

and I plug myself in

and then I come home

and I can show everyone
how to get up there.

- Aiden, that is not possible.

- [Aiden] Why?

- We don’t have the
technology to do that.

- There’s no way we could
get the neuro inhibitor

up to the wormhole in time.

It would take years, decades.

- Sharp, you knew my father.

There’s no way he
would’ve sent me back

if this wasn’t possible.

- That’s it.

I want this piece of metal in
an incinerator, you hear me?!

And you,

the people of earth
have no interest

in defending a planet
that may or may not exist.

We can’t just fly up to
a wormhole near Saturn.

The chances of us
reaching that far out

into the solar system are

a million to one,

not to mention making it back.

The probability of that
happening is in the billions.

It cannot happen.

- You’re just afraid to try.

- All right, enough.

Enough!

Sir,

allow us to try to
find another way.

Please?

- You have until the morning,

after that both your careers die

with what left of this
Andromeda program.

And you,

stay where you are

before you tear a
hole in the cosmos

the size of Manhattan Island.

- Guys.

(soft music)

I got it.

It’s my mother.

- What about her?

- This whole time I was thinking

that my father was
the key to this, but

it’s her.

- I don’t understand.

- I gotta go.

You two keep working here.

When I get back, I’ll
know how to solve this.

- Where are you going?

- To convince her
to change his mind.

(swooshing)

- You know your father
used to always tell me

to teach our boy how to
think, not what to think.

You’re tall.

- Hi mom.

- This isn’t real, is it?

- It has to be.

- Okay.

Well for now,

for now, let’s talk
a mother and her son.

- Is it,

is it okay where you are?

- I’m lonely.

I long for the
things that I lost,

you and your father.

- I found him.

- Your father?

- That’s right.

He’s alive.

We’ve been to amazing
places together.

- I see.

So he gets to leave
for all these years.

He gets to abandon us

and now he’s just some big
hero after all this time.

- That’s not true.

But mom, you have
to listen to me.

I need you to do something

that’s not gonna make
any sense right now.

- Okay?

- Just after my
seventh birthday, there
will be an accident.

Dad is gonna take
me to the hospital

and do something that will
alter the course of the planet.

Something so big that will,

they’ll rewrite
the history books.

- Which part?

- All of it.

I need you to convince
him not to do it.

- Convince your father,

those are two words that
just don’t go together.

- You can make him listen.

I know you can.

- Okay, I’m confused.

So you don’t want this
amazing thing to happen?

- I do, but he has to let
it happen to someone else.

- Okay, who?

- Someone he trusts
as much as me.

- Aiden, I don’t understand
what you’re asking me to do.

- I’m asking you to be
the hero of this story.

- But if this makes me
the hero of this story,

what does that make you?

- So who do you think it is?

The person you trust
the most besides Aiden?

- It’s hard to say.

William was a private
man and you know that.

- Well, let’s say Aiden
can convince her then what?

- In theory,

Aiden’s time on MB
22 becomes void.

He’ll just wake up

back home in his own bed as
if nothing ever happened.

- I’m lost.

- Are you familiar with
parallel dimension theory?

- Yeah, sure.

It’s hypothetical.

- Perhaps.

But a hypothetical
self-contained
plain of existence

coexisting with one zone.

See that,

that could be very real.

All right.

All right.

This is our reality.

The one that we’re living
and breathing in right now.

Right.

Now this,

this point represents the moment

where Aiden gets
into his accident

and his father installs
his prodigy chip.

Now let’s just say that
that mark moves before then,

from this point forward,

no matter whoever
the new individual

William entrusts with
the prodigy chip,

that person will go on to
survive the attack on MB 22

and accompany him to Algos.

Whoever the new
individual William

installs the prodigy chip into,

that person will survive
the attack on MB 22

and follow him on to Algos.

Now

this is an alternate reality.

One were everything plays
out the exact same way,

except someone else is up
there filling Aiden’s shoes.

Now this person will have
infinitely more knowledge

of the future.

It’s an unfair advantage,

but we need all the help
we can get moving forward.

- In the tie off.

- We hope

to meet back up here.

It’ll be like everything
happened while we were asleep.

We won’t even know
it even happened.

We’ll just wake up in this
altered state of reality,

one in which William continues
on to find us a new home.

- What about Aiden?

- What about him?

It’ll be as if we never ask him

to use the neuro
inhibitor at all.

- So he won’t
remember any of this.

His training, MB 22.

- No.

He won’t need to because
it never happened.

- And William?

- Well, Aiden’s already
grown up with the fact

that William spent
more time in space

than he has here on Earth.

That’s just something he’s
gonna have to carry on with him

no matter which reality
he continues in.

- But how do we know
that it’s worked?

- Now that part,

that part, I don’t know.

- You’re angry.

- Angry.

I was angry two hours ago.

- I finally did it.

- For once, I would
just love for you

to come home on time and
to not talk about space

or whatever else you’ve been
doing for the past 36 hours.

- I don’t think you understand.

- You’re right.

- I think I finally
figured it out.

Space travel in the
palm of my hand.

Technology beyond our time.

I call it the neuro inhibitor.

And this time,

this time, they won’t
be able to ignore me.

- Your son came to see me today.

- Aiden, why wasn’t
he in school?

Is he all right?

- Aiden came to see me
today from the future.

He was all grown up

and he had your eyes

just like we imagined he would.

- You’re talking about
telekinetic holography.

I figured that out too.

Did he tell you how I did it?

- We didn’t talk
about work, William.

- Well then what
did you talk about?

(whooshing)

- Aiden?

- It’s done.

- So what do we do now?

- We wait.

- Yeah, but how do we
know that it worked?

How do we know that she
actually talked to William?

- I guess in the
morning, we just know.

- Not exactly.

Aiden, when you saw your mother,

you didn’t tell her any
specifics about your accident,

did you like the time
or date that it occurs?

- No.

- Nothing at all.

Nothing that would prevent

your accident from
actually happening?

Remember, you want your
father to change his mind,

who he gives your
prodigy chip to.

And your mother mustn’t
prevent your accident

from actually happening.

- She won’t.

I was vague enough
that she’ll trust me.

- And how do we know for sure?

- Because she’s
my mother, Sharp.

- All right.

So if everything
goes as planned,

your mother will
convince William

to put the prodigy
chip into someone else,

that’ll set off the
alternate reality tangent,

and by the time we
wake up in the morning,

hopefully everything
will be back to normal

except better.

- A new normal.

- Exactly.

A new normal

where you never seen or
heard of McGrady or myself.

- The greater good, right?

- That’s right.

- Well, I guess if this works,

this is goodbye fellas.

- Take care of yourself, Aiden.

- Thank you Aiden, really,

even if none of us

have any memory
the last 16 months,

it has been an honor.

Your father would be proud.

- And if it doesn’t work?

- Norris said that wheat
will be the first crop to go.

- Then it has to work

and it will.

- God willing.

(exciting music)

- [Synthia] Hey,
good morning sir.

- What are you
doing in my office?

- Your office?

Archives is my department.

You’re up on the seventh floor.

- Seven?

- Yes.

All the directors
are up on seven.

Are you feeling okay?

You look a little flushed.

- Director?

- [Synthia] Yeah.

Did you hit your
head or something?

- It is fine.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

- Okay.
- Sorry about that.

Thank you.

- Yeah, no worries.

- [Synthia] You have a good day.

- Yeah, you too.
- Okay.

- Sharp.

- Morning, director.

- What is happening?

- We’re closing the loop.

I’m sure you have questions.

- You did it.

- Hmm.

We did it.

- You’re not really here.

- A lot has changed.

Everything has changed.

- You were the one William
trusted most after Aiden.

- William entrusted me
with the final prodigy chip

instead of his own son.

- Aiden was right.

She got through to him.

The attack in MB 22,
that still happened.

The projections too.

- Everything happened
the exact same way

except I swapped
places with Aiden

since he was no longer an
option for the neuro inhibitor.

- You went in after William.

What was it like?

- Well,

after the attack on MB 22,

William sent me
further into Andromeda

than any of us dreamt possible.

- Why you?

- William was busy
building our new home.

(strange music)

It was here that William sent me

to learn about
telekinetic holography.

(strange music continues)

The fifth dimension
belonged to a species

far older than
even our universe.

You see, if there
was a big bang,

someone had to have their finger

on the other side of the cosmos.

It was them.

They also showed me how
to defeat our enemies

so that the same fate
we suffered on on MB 22

didn’t follow us as we set
out to colonize a new planet.

- [McGrady] Algos.

- [Sharp] That’s right.

- [McGrady] What happened
after the mothership showed up?

- [Sharp] It was a full
scale attack on the planet.

(tense music)

Our defenses tried
to fight them off,

but it was no use.

(tense music continues)
(guns shooting)

I had to watch as the the forces

slaughtered the projections.

(tense music continues)
(shooting continues)

During the battle,

I made my way onto the
mothership telekinetically

as the beings
instructed me to do.

(tense music continues)

I got to the ship’s mainframe

and programmed an emergency
hydrogen burn sequence

inside their thrusters.

(tense music continues)

You see, even in space,
everything burns.

- [McGrady] You
destroyed the ship

without ever really
setting foot inside it.

- [Sharp] Sound familiar?

- And William?

- He’s alive and well.

We both survived
the attack on MB 22

and we went on to
mine the colony.

Sent readings back
every chance we got.

The very readings you took
to the powers that be.

Those readings made it possible

for the first pods
to launch to Algos

by the end of the year.

- Incredible.

- How can I not
remember any of this?

- Hmm, you remember
enough for now.

- This,

this changes everything
we know about physics.

- Like I said, we did it.

The earth may run out of food,

room,

even hope.

There’s a new home up there
for those who choose to come.

We’re just up there waiting
to see who shows up.

- What about Aiden?

He doesn’t know any
of this happened.

- That was the agreement we made

the last time the three
of us stood in this room.

- So what happens now?

- You’re the director of NASA.

I’m sure you have
a full day planned.

Me, I’ve got one more stop

and then I got a
wormhole to catch.

- Wait.

When will I see you again?

- Soon, I hope.

See you Robert.

(strange music)

(soft music)

- Who are you?

- My name is Joseph Sharp.

- That name’s supposed
to mean something to me.

- Now that’s a difficult
question to answer.

- Well you got
about three seconds

to get outta my house
before I call the police.

- I only need a minute or
two and then I’ll just go.

- Make it quick.

- Aiden, I work
with your father.

- My father at NASA?

- [Sharp] That’s right.

- Well my father’s
been dead for 20 years,

so I don’t know what you think

you’re gonna get
outta coming here.

- You’re familiar
with Andromeda, right?

- [Aiden] Of course I am,
it’s all over the news.

- So you know the
program’s real?

- I know it’s real
for some people,

but for the rest of us

who can’t afford a
ticket into space,

we’ll just die here on earth.

- Aiden, your father is alive.

He asked me to give you this.

- What is it?

- I think it’s best you
have a look for yourself.

- That’s it?

- That’s it.

Seriously,

you need to read this.

So you really don’t remember me?

- Should I?

(explosions booming)
(laser guns shooting)

- Nothing at all?

- Sorry.

- Isn’t that something.

For the record,

this was your idea.

- [William] Your mother told
me you would have my eyes.

- Dad?

- It’s good to see
you again, son.

- What’s happening?

What, what is all this?

- That is an invitation
to join me on Algos.

- So it’s true?

You’re not really here.

- Oh, I’ve always
been here, son.

Whether you knew it or not.

- So you, you’ve just
been gone all this time?

And then, and then you
show up here with this

and and expect me to, to what?

- I did the best I could.

I may have regrets,

but regrets are just
part of the journey.

I loved you from a distance

knowing that one day you
would judge me for it.

But like a shadow,

I lived by your side

and you couldn’t
possibly know this,

but I was so very proud of you.

There’s an old saying, it goes,

a boy doesn’t become a
man until his father dies.

Well, you proven that one wrong.

You lived all this
time as if I were gone.

But I was always present.

And

you’ll never know this,

but I’m only alive
because of you.

- I don’t understand.

- The death of a man is
not the death of his dream.

Take the ticket.

Come to Algos.

- Dad.

- I’ll tell you what,

we can talk when
he get here, there.

But I did have a question.

It was you that convinced
your mother, wasn’t it?

- Convinced her to what?

- I thought so.

- Well, Aiden,

on the phone, you mentioned

you were having
trouble sleeping.

This being our first session,

why don’t you tell me a
little bit about yourself?

- I’m having trouble
sleeping at night.

- That’s actually quite common.

What kind of trouble?

- I keep having the same dream.

Every night’s the same thing.

- Can you tell me
about your dream?

- It’s the kind of
dream where you’re

going somewhere
that’s not possible.

But when you wake up,

it felt so real,

you’d swear you
were really there.

- Dreams can oftentimes be a
mirror into one’s own reality.

Can you tell me
where you were going

in this stream of yours?

- Someplace bright.

(soft music)

- Sounds like you’re
describing heaven.

- It’s brighter than that,

like

going home

and the only thing more
unthinkable than leaving

is staying behind,

like a, a pull towards
something you can’t explain.

Fate.

- Are you going somewhere Aiden?

Sometimes the greatest
pain comes from leaving.

Like when a child leaves home

or when a husband and wife leave

for an extended period
of time or for good.

It’s the pain of leaving
that tears us apart.

Still, if we were to
avoid the pain of leaving,

we never experienced the joy
of returning where we belong.

- Algos.

- Come again?

- What does it mean?

- In Greek is
translated as pain.

- He’s in pain without me there.

You know,

I feel like I’ve
known you for years.

- How does that make you feel?

- Maybe we’ve met before,

another life.

- Wouldn’t that be something.

(soft music)
