The fulcrum is one of the most powerful tools for a Machinist.

11 months earlier

6 days

The pressure point around which all things revolve.

A lever can push children into the abyss

Or just saved them from certain death.

This is Joseph Wilford.

With a good fulcrum in the right position...

you can move mountains or you can turn the tide.

You can play on someone's heart and mind.

Go, go, go.

I still can't believe it. The great Joseph Wilford.

Here, in my quarters.

Admiral Anton Milius. I am at your service.

Where am I?

Bunker Bravo 3-0.

In Djibouti, under the reign of Peacekeeping.

We call it the Silo.

We have been following the Snowpiercer for months for our mission.

According to what I hear, your train offers the key to success.

Maybe we can help each other.

As a Machinist, I will use every lever And use every tool

To reunite myself with my trains: the Big Alice and the Snowpiercer.

1,029 wagons long.

Sorry for snapping at you yesterday.

You've probably already had the worst of it.

Maybe with that admiral.

Come on.

Just a chat to pass the time.

You don't have to bare your soul.

Though you dare Expose your scars.

I have nothing to hide. - Dr. Headwood can patch you up.

Not interested.

Also good.

In any case, you have piqued my interest.

Anton. Nice of you to visit.

How are things going after the loss of the Big Alice? I'm still shaking, you know.

When will my tunnel be free? - Soon.

The Snowpiercer will be be nearby, surely?

I want hard and fast deadlines. 'Soon' is not enough.

Tomorrow then? - Tonight.

Also good. Tonight it's settled.

Did it work out? Is Ben at the wheel?

I don't know anything about things outside my department.

One bunker and two trains, now that's not the Manhattan Project.

Your friends have escaped and the admiral apparently does not want to pursue them.

Were you able to review our research?

Melanie started collecting collecting atmospheric data.

She should be back by now.

She is always very precise and quadruple-checks her dates.

That reminds me: your nosebleeds.

I would like to see your symptoms and your log.

You first.

Who did or did not make it to the Big Alice passed? Start with Layton.

Bye, girl.

Here.

Drink up.

Thanks.

Did they eat anything?

Just this.

Is this all we have? - I fear so.

People must be getting restless.

I could use some pep talks.

After everything that has happened.

A plan or something. That would help them.

Ruth has been elected leader of New Eden elected.

She wants to say something.

Bye, everyone.

I understand...

That this has been a difficult year.

Many lives have been lost to us.

And although our journey is not yet at an end,

New Eden awaits us all and I promise that...

I'm sorry.

I can't.

Oz, what is your location? About.

Oz, you need to report. About.

I have to find him first.

You've been out too long.

Oz?

Roche.

Whiggins?

Hey, Oz.

Can you give me a hand?

I need to take some more samples.

You were done with that, right? - These are the last ones.

I need to test those with epistaxis.

Nosebleeds.

Then just say so.

Sir.

I just...

a little too little sugar. It will pass.

You cut yourself.

Shall we have an early lunch?

Another attack of dizziness? How long did it last?

A minute or so. - Did it get blurry in front of your eyes?

Temporarily, yes.

It's okay, though. - We have to do another cure.

If you insist.

I am in good hands with you.

The admiral makes you work too hard. - No.

I am just coming into my own in front of Of his troops, where I am useful.

He recently came to poke around a bit and ask questions.

Is that so?

He is not that subtle.

He said that I needed to had to understand.

That sour stench of someone doubting himself doubting himself. Do you smell it on him?

It's like rotting flesh. Just be on your guard.

list of samples: mouse, rat, rabbit, desert rat, guinea pig

I don't want any trouble.

You're coming with us. - I just woke up.

I don't know where I am, so maybe we can talk.

Good, Whiggins.

Why did you defect? - It's not like that. I was trapped.

And your captor has a day off? - No, I escaped.

Then they took my hand...

severed just before I escaped....

Shut up! We found your hand And it was torn off, not chopped off.

We'll take care of your arm. Promise.

But tell us where Roche is.

I didn't see him again after the disconnection of the trains.

Stop lying. Liana has been kidnapped, Zarah is dead

And Roche disappeared at your camp site.

It's up to you now. Whether you're going to talk...

Sister Rita. Hello. Do you remember Stu Whiggins?

He has...

He suffered some damage.

Morale was low in the first revolutions of the Big Alice.

That's why we organized something.

Like in the old days, a gladiatorial fight.

Against our champion Bob, a true titan.

But the problem was that no one dared do that to him.

So what was I supposed to do?

Disappoint my people? Rafael, boy, would you like that?

No.

So then I drank a good gulp of whiskey

And I stepped into the ring myself.

I regretted it immediately when I saw that behemoth in front of me.

Very cool, Mr. Wilford.

We don't see anything like that here. It sounds nice.

In this harsh world you have to make it fun, boy.

Don't mind me. Please, keep going.

So when I had to go against titanic Bob. - Sorry to interrupt you again.

Joseph, my troops should have said You can't smoke here.

My mistake.

No, it's not your fault.

Your hand, soldier.

Sir? - Your hand.

Please continue.

So when I had to fight titan Bob had to fight, I got spoiled rotten.

What a story, Joseph.

Everyone back to their posts.

Evening red, nice weather on board.

I don't know you. - We've never met either.

So who are you?

Ever heard of the Snowpiercer?

Good.

Ready to continue working?

Joseph...

You were just what I needed.

Nothing sticks from earlier? - No. Rules are rules.

Nice.

I am strict with my men, but I also reward good behavior.

You did an excellent job, Joseph.

It's okay to let off some steam. Go take samples with the boys.

I've heard things about those trips.

Just some fun that also good for our research.

You'll love it. - Sounds great.

But I still have repair work to do. - Don't worry about that.

That will be taken care of.

Where are you going, W.? - Thanks for helping me out. Very sweet.

Have you been smoking too much? What is it?

Stay on the right side, Alex.

Let him. You have to continue restoring the undercarriage.

That's how we lived for seven years.

Our fate lay in the hands of the upper class,

so I understand your situation.

I pose no danger.

The elevator is coming.

Come on. Are you serious?

Not playing along is not eating.

Targets 401 and 412.

Dinner is ready.

There.

Do you call this fun?

That's already better.

Not together.

Get out. Forward.

It's okay.

You also just follow orders.

You should have chosen the bullet.

You stay away from my daughter.

I would say don't let it get cold. But that won't be as much...

make up.

May I join?

I have made made many speeches.

I noticed that.

You did a great job.

Did you finish him off for me? Told me everything was going to be okay?

No way. They would never believe me.

I don't have what you do. - Then what? Self-control?

When I said it would be all right, I didn't always believe it myself.

But this time is different.

We have never lost a Machinist.

There is no handbook to deal with that.

Then we'll write one ourselves.

For Ben.

For Ben.

What would the military want with Stu Whiggins?

He can't do anything. - He is not alone there.

And Roche disappears at his camp site. That can't be a coincidence.

We need to increase surveillance. - He's hiding something.

He is terrified of us.

If you mean the former head of security of Wilford.

Old habits don't get rid of.

You're damn good at it. - I don't want to.

That's why I chose Agro.

To keep my instincts from the past Not to fuel them.

Those are not your instincts.

Wilford taught them to you.

Whiggins was in First, wasn't he? A Kaplaars for Wilford.

He was in the Night Wagon every night.

Let me have an evening alone with him. Then he will talk.

No worries, I...

I will be careful.

I can help you.

No more cable ties? - It depends.

Can you sit still?

I will try.

My name is Kari. - Andre.

This was a Peacekeeping lab.

We wanted to reverse the effects of CW-7 backfire.

But there was a chemical leak.

They closed the floors.

We couldn't go upstairs.

Then we realized that we were now the experiment.

How long have you been here?

A good three years. - Three years?

And you don't have a way out yet?

Where should we go?

Good luck with that.

Thanks.

So.

Are there still people this far out of the village? - No. Just me.

That's just what I like about it.

We don't like each other anyway. - Sure. Most of them are Tails.

It was naive to think that I could start over here.

The only two who still care about me, are dead or missing.

I just want to go back to the train.

When will that happen? - No idea.

I thought the soldiers were would come and get me.

If they do...

will you take me then?

It's just...

I don't belong here.

Sorry, but I can't help you.

And what if...

What if in return I give you a Night Wagon Treatment?

Where is Liana?

Where is she? - Where all the girls are at this hour.

She sleeps, in complete safety.

Her mother was murdered before her eyes. - I never wanted Zarah's death.

I cared about her and Liana.

I would not away from her mother.

I wanted to keep your people from storming of the admiral's troops.

You should thank me.

Zarah's killer is that big one, with the rat on his helmet.

The admiral should never have sent him, but that's what you get with barbarians.

Layton?

Layton?

I was almost scared to death. - You'll never get out of here alive.

I swear. - We'll see about that, King Layton.

We will see.

Everything has been restored.

Impressive, mind you.

Just like your mother.

I...

I noticed that the hinges of the door were damaged.

You have an eagle eye. - There's a hole punched in this wagon.

The trains were manually uncoupled.

Only a Machinist can do that.

In the Big Alice there are no protective suits. Where is Ben?

He uncoupled the trains.

That's how your friends could get away.

Then he died.

I'm sorry.

This place...

It is not a pretty place.

But he did not die for nothing.

I will show you.

That's reinforced glass, five centimeters thick.

You can't break that. - Make yourself believe that.

Just think of another plan.

I am the only one who knows where Liana is.

Who else will take you to her? The admiral?

Keep selling nonsense.

You won't get out of here.

Then how do you take me to her?

Out, everyone.

Wolf.

You stay.

This is Milius. - Fine, you're still awake.

You have restored the communication system. Nice work. That had been broken for years.

And I thought you forgot how useful I can be.

When you leave with the Snowpiercer, you might want to take the maker with you.

No, thanks. I prefer things to go smoothly.

Even for my greatest enemies I am the ultimate contingency plan.

Their last refuge When they have no other option.

Just take me To fix your mistakes.

That's you, Wilford. You are my fault.

Do your soldiers think the same way? I would take a poll.

Are they all still loyal to you? Thank Wolf again for sparing me.

Smart guy. - You're wrong.

I wanted to leave you there to Layton. - Then that failed again.

Layton and I are having a great time here. Otherwise, please join us.

Then we build a party.

Take off your helmet.

Look at me.

That whole floor has to go.

That worked perfectly. Oh so predictable.

Now they are coming to finish us off. - That is also a way out.

Our only way out is that elevator.

And it only comes down When they come.

Why shouldn't I just watch as they finish you off?

For the same reason you took the train Took the train. Your daughter.

Only if you cooperate with me, will you see her again.

So what are you saying?

Armistice?

Just a little tighter.

Oh yeah, right. Exactly right. Okay.

First oil, but only the feet.

Oh yes, no, no. Wait, what are you doing now?

You have to work toward the climax. Start softly.

Don't go for it like that right away.

It doesn't work if I have to need to give you instructions. The feeling has to...

be unexpected. Good, that's already better.

How does that feel?

Yes, that's delicious.

Now you do both.

No, no, no. Blueberry. Blueberry.

Oz, blueberry is the stop word. Stop.

Why did you have to come to New Eden? - What?

Why did you have to come to New Eden?

Did they force you to help them?

Did they force you to help them?

That's not right, is it?

You helped them not by what you can do, but by who you know.

Did you designate Zarah?

Oz, I didn't know what they were up to.

Who else did you designate?

Dr. Headwood.

But you have to believe me. As soon as I heard from Zarah,

I jumped in panic from the snowcat. But my hand stuck to the track.

Then I fainted.

Did they leave you behind?

Yes. For dead.

I watched them dig my grave.

On the edge, near my tent.

They dug several.

Digging? - Yes.

That caused the avalanche.

What will you do?

You're an asshole, Whiggins. - No, Oz...

How many were needed for New Eden? - Just these.

Sent out two years ago.

So if you have the Big Alice, are you going to create more places like New Eden?

That's the intention, yes. - And the side effects?

The mixture that New Eden has created, we call Gemini.

It was only an early version, but at least it was a breakthrough.

Unforeseen chemical reactions caused toxic emissions.

Which in turn caused my nosebleeds.

We improved Gemini by studying guinea pigs.

With the same symptoms as me?

This was more than experiments on animals.

Did those people survive?

Er...

There was an incident. We had to shut down the lower floors.

Some colleagues were exposed to it.

We kept them alive.

Thanks to their sacrifices, we are here now.

To accomplish our common mission.

So to complete your data, you have to test on an outsider?

From now on, just ask.

Shall we?

Aha, the leader.

Isn't that right?

Kari?

Oh, you are already friends.

We want to escape through the elevator shaft.

If we get out of this... - We can't.

Anything goes.

We climb down the elevator shaft to the floor above us.

We narrow and let the elevator pass by.

Then we climb on it and hitchhike up.

I've heard crazier things. - I came to ask you to join me for dinner.

That's not a good idea. Milius sends his troops.

How can I help? - Do you have any tools?

Something to pry open the elevator door.

Thanks. - After such a sampling

we always get a feast. For when you change your mind.

We'll manage. I will...

The dreaded revolutionary wants to give hope to the desperate.

Fascinating spectacle.

She is not desperate. She just doesn't want to live in their world.

Neither do I.

No more power.

Once a man of the people.

Driven by the common good.

But fatherhood...

That doesn't compare to anything, does it?

Ah, man. You don't care about Alex or anyone else.

I'm not talking about Alex. That's how I feel about my trains.

You know that's insane, right?

Laugh at me. But you're here, aren't you?

I knew you would trade the Big Alice for your daughter.

You would sacrifice everything and everyone for your own self-interest.

Damn. - We're too late.

Is this okay? - Perfect, Tristan. Thanks.

With this indentation

we promise never to forget how Bennett Knox sacrificed himself

To liberate the Big Alice, our source of life, free.

Thus the Machinist is forever connected To the Locomotive and its eternal light.

I got the rat to talk. - And?

He said they dug graves. - You get less than half a meter deep.

They were not digging, but planting.

Planting what? - Bombs.

All over the mountain pass.

They want to bury the whole village.

Scan this for a moment. - Sure.

Look when it's been scanned with my wristband.

Most recently on the third floor.

Turn off the east elevator. Right now.

Nima.

Good news. Miss Cavill's snow cat was spotted five kilometers away.

She should be here soon. Time to accomplish the mission.
