Dark Matter (2015–2017): Season 1, Episode 13 - Episode #1.13 - full transcript

Crew members are targeted and paranoia mounts as they search for the perpetrator; the person responsible for the mind-wipe makes a move.

[NARRATOR]
Previously on Dark Matter.

You saw the scans.

Yeah, and they said
you're flesh and blood.

Artificially constructed.

Welcome back, Rebecca.

[TWO grunts]

[SIX]
We're gonna go get her.

[FIVE]
I knew you weren't serious

about leaving her behind.

[saw buzzing]

[grunts]



[MYSTERIOUS MAN]
Do they know what she is?

Yes.

[MYSTERIOUS MAN] Then
they'll need to die too, Alex.

All of them.

[PORTIA]
so?

[RYO]
You're right.

[PORTIA]
Then we're agreed?

[RYO]
Yes.

[PORTIA]
He has to die.

[RYO]
When?

[PORTIA] Before we
get to the mining colony,

after we come out of stasis.

[FIVE] Hey, Android, there's
something I need to talk...

...to you about...



[FIVE]
Hey.

Hey!

Hey, help!

Somebody help!
Somebody help!

Help!

[TWO]
What's the matter?

[FIVE]
The Android's offline.

Her neural chip's
been removed.

There's something
in her hand.

Volkov-Rusi.

The soldiers
who took the ship.

We didn't get them all.

[THREE]
Son-of-a-bitch.

No one messes with my robot.

Whoever took her down
removed her neural implant.

We're gonna need to recover
it to bring her back online.

[FOUR] Assuming it already
hasn't been destroyed.

I don't think so.

With the implant,
you could do a full reboot

to make her more manageable.

Control the Android
and you control the ship.

So why didn't whoever
it was do it already?

Why wait?

[TWO]
I don't know.

Maybe they weren't
thinking straight,

or Five scared them off.

Or maybe they have
some other agenda.

[ONE] But how
is this possible?

We did a full top
to bottom sweep.

Obviously we need to do
a better one this time.

Right.

But remember,
we need to keep them alive.

At least until we
get the implant back.

You know how to use it.

Yeah.

One, you're with Four.

Five, you're with Six.

Three, you're with me.

Keep your eyes on your
partner and stay in touch.

[THREE] You know
I'm kinda surprised

you didn't partner
up with your boy.

You two having issues?

No, not that it's
any of your business.

Sweetheart, on this ship,

everything is
everyone's business.

Outside of
our quarters,

he's just another
member of this crew.

Yeah, I remember the drill.

I wanted to ask
you something.

Yeah?

When I was in that airlock

and they were
threatening to space me,

you were the one
who gave up the code.

So?

Even though
I told you not to.

Is this where you give me the
gears for disobeying an order?

That's not at all
what I was trying to say.

You're the most convenient
choice to command this ship.

Don't let it go
to your head.

[TWO] Actually, I was
trying to thank you.

Oh.

[TWO]
Until you ruined it.

Well, you're welcome.

Clear.

So Why'd you do it?

[TWO]
Hmm?

Why did you do it?

I don't know.

Guess I just figured...
you're a valuable asset is all.

Anyway, you're worth much more
than the payoff from one job.

So it was a calculated decision
based strictly on logic?

Sounds like me, right?

Sure.

[ONE]
Just to be clear,

we're trying to take whoever
did this alive, remember?

You doubting my self-control?

I'm disciplined.
I only kill when necessary.

Yeah, like your old friend?

Akita ?

He was a threat.

[beep]

Yeah?

He would have come
after me eventually.

A dead enemy is
one less concern.

I don't know.

Enemy or not,
the lives I've taken

weigh pretty heavily on me.

Yeah, well I can't
allow them to affect me,

because I have so
many more to take.

We're less than a week out from
the edge of colonized space,

out of the reach of
the Galactic Authority.

We can afford to stop running.

Look, unlike you, I'm not
trying to escape my past.

I've chosen to embrace it.

[pad beeps]

So once I've gathered all
the necessary resources,

I'll return to Zairon
and retake my throne.

[TWO]
One, come in.

What's your status?

[ONE] Yeah, we just
cleared this section.

What?

You look pretty
comfortable with that gun.

Four's been teaching
me self-defense.

That includes fighting
and... weapon training.

Now, when there's trouble,

instead of hiding
I can finally be useful.

You've never needed
a gun to be useful.

You might not want to hear it,
but... I'm happy now.

I finally feel like
I'm part of the team

and it's got nothing
to do with this gun.

Well, here's the irony.

All this time you've been
trying to be more like us,

we've actually been
trying to be more like you.

And we failed.

In the end, we can't help
but be who we are.

That's not true.

When we woke up we were
just a group of strangers.

But now... we're a family.

[TWO]
Six, how're you two doing?

[SIX]
All clear here, too.

[TWO]
Okay.

Fall back to the bridge.

Could it be that
there are parts of this ship

that we have yet
to discover?

I was considering
the possibility.

But we haven't
finished searching.

What're you talking about?

We've looked everywhere.

No, we haven't.

[SIX] You got guts,
I'll give you that.

I know these vents.

If there's someone in here,
I'll find them.

[FIVE]
Ready.

Turning on the live feed.

[FIVE pants]

Receiving.

Okay, we're gonna go
through this level by level.

The others are all
stationed at choke points,

so there will always
be someone there

if you run into any trouble.

If you encounter anyone,

I don't want you to take
any chances, you understand?

I won't.

All right, One,
she's approaching your position.

[ONE]
Yeah, I see her.

This area's clear.

I'm moving on.

This level's clear, too.

[crashing]

[THREE]
Shh!

She's approaching
the final position.

If anyone's in there,
that's where they'll be.

[THREE] It's always
the last place you look.

[ONE whispers]
Shut that off.

All clear.

[ONE sighs]

There's no one here.

[THREE]
Great.

Now what?

I'm coming down.

[THREE] What? You think
someone's in there?

[TWO]
No, I don't.

[TWO]
Shit...

[ONE]
What?

This case contained
the stun device

Wexler used to take down
the Android, and now it's gone.

We're the only ones
with the code to this room.

There's no one else
onboard this ship.

It was one of us.

[ONE] You sure that's
where we put it?

[TWO] The device
was there yesterday.

[ONE] Why would one of us
target the Android?

[TWO] Because she poses
the greatest threat.

With her out of the way,

it's a whole lot easier to
take the rest of us down.

[ONE]
Take us down? Why?

To finish what was started
the day our memories were wiped.

But, why now?
What's changed?

[ONE]
I don't know.

But we've got to
figure this out, fast.

[TWO]
There is one way.

We're two days out
from the nearest space station.

We get there,
get a new implant,

and bring the
Android back online.

And have another
lie detector session.

No, whoever did this is not
gonna wait another two days.

[FOUR]
Of course not.

The next move will be
made before then.

[SIX]
Where are you going?

If anyone needs me,
I'll be training.

[SIX]
We should stick together.

Separated, we're easier targets.

I'd welcome anyone who
considered me an easy target.

[THREE chuckles]

What'd you think
we were gonna do?

We're gonna bunk
together, all six of us?

Nah, man.

I say he's right.
I say bring it on.

Speaking of which,
can we take a little walk?

Got something to discuss.

Sure.

[ONE] Hey, remember,
we don't know who to trust...

...so... be careful.

[THREE]
I will!

[THREE]
Question:

[THREE] How attached
are you to that guy?

I just want to know what kind
of blowback I'm gonna get

when we leave him at
the next space station.

You've got him all
figured out now, don't you?

Had him figured
out weeks ago.

He lied to get
onboard this ship.

God knows why
or who he really even is.

I know why
and who he really is.

He told me.

Is that something you thought
you might wanna share

with me and
the rest of the crew?

It's nothing the rest of
the crew has to worry about.

Oh, okay.
Good to know.

Or not.

And it's nothing that
would motivate him

to take down our Android.

As far as you know.

That would apply to
everyone else on this ship.

Sure, but you're not sleeping
with everyone else on this ship.

Are you suggesting my ability to
lead has somehow been compromised?

Four's right.

Whatever One's got planned,
he's gonna do it before

we get to the next station,
so what I am suggesting

is that we lock him up
until we get there.

Better yet, why don't
I put you all in lockdown,

just to be on
the safe side?

Problem with that is then you'd
have total control of the ship.

I thought it was him
you didn't trust?

Nah, it's just him
I trust the least.

[TWO] I'll take your request
under advisement.

Yeah, well,
don't take too long.

'Cause if you don't do
something about him,

I sure as hell will.

[FOUR pants]

[FOUR]
A rare visit from you.

Should I be worried?

Yes, you should be,
but not about me.

I've been raising
the alarm about Three

from the very beginning.

[FOUR]
That you have.

Come on.

You've displayed some
pretty remarkable intuition.

What do your instincts tell you?

To trust no one,
least of all someone who snuck

aboard this ship under
false pretenses.

I'm not like the rest of you.

Clearly.

When we used the transfer pods
to go looking for Six,

I ran a genetic scan
and found out the truth.

My real name is Derrick Moss.

I was a business man,
and by all accounts

leading a privileged life,
until my wife was murdered.

By a member of this crew.

Care to guess which one?

So it's revenge you're after.

I thought so.

[ONE]
Now, I don't know.

I had a chance to
kill him, and I didn't.

I'm sure another opportunity
will present itself.

I'm not looking for payback.

I just want to keep us safe,
and the only way of doing that

is by making sure
he's no longer a threat.

I'm not saying we kill him.

Just neutralize him.

Lock him up until we
get to the space station

so he can't hurt anyone.

There's one more crew member

you'll have to get onside
for that to happen.

I know.

But if she agrees, will we be able
to count on your support?

You should be careful.

She'll probably
come after you next.

You or Four.

She?

[FIVE] One and Three will be too
busy worrying about each other.

She'll count on that.

And I'm not a threat to her,
so you need to be careful.

You're talking about Two.

We don't know what
happened to her

while she was
down on that planet.

[SIX]
Come on.

You really think she's capable

of harming a member
of this crew?

I know she is.

I've been thinking...

We should lock
up the weapons.

That's not gonna happen.

[TWO] Just as a precaution,
until we get to

the space station and
figure this all out.

I think the Android
should be our bigger concern.

[FIVE]
He's right.

Whoever has her neural chip
can use her against us.

You remember what
happened the last time

you guys faced
off against her?

Yeah, I remember, all right.

Okay.

So let's say that we do agree
to lock up the Android,

One problem:

Who holds the key?

[ONE]
I don't think it matters,

because I'm guessing
whoever did this

doesn't have the skill
set to reprogram her.

I wanna come over there
and demonstrate my skill set

On you pretty boy, huh?

[TWO]
Hey, hey, that's enough.

That's enough.

No, thanks.

[SIX]
Like I said before,

we should all stick
together, just to be safe.

Huddle for protection like a
bunch of frightened animals?

No, thank you.

Staying together makes it
harder to access the Android

and use her against us.

[FOUR]
I don't fear the Android,

and I surely don't
fear any of you,

so if anyone in here is even
considering coming after me,

I'd suggest you rethink y--

[Two]
You okay?

What's happening to him?!

[TWO] Blood pressure,
heart, and respiratory rates

are steady; cerebral
blood flow is normal,

but he's in an
unresponsive state.

I'm assuming this isn't
something you just sleep off?

It's impossible to say.

I don't know what he ingested

but my guess is it
was a rapid-onset,

ultra short-action barbiturate.

Possibly a neurotoxin.

So our entire water
supply's been laced?

We can't know for sure
until I run a full analysis.

Until then, I'd advise
everyone to not

consume anything
that isn't sealed.

A few minutes later,
we all would've joined him.

Not all of us.

One of us didn't
take any water.

One of us wasn't thirsty.

Isn't that convenient?

[ONE]
Oh, come on.

If I wanted to drug you,
I would've taken a cup

like the rest of you so
you wouldn't suspect me.

Unless, of course,
you thought that we wouldn't

be awake to suspect you.

I'm smart enough not
to take that chance.

And yet, you did.

No, I didn't, because
I didn't drug the water!

All right, settle down.

You're not gonna
get anywhere arguing.

That's because you guys
aren't listening to me.

[TWO] You're just throwing
around wild accusations.

You want proof?
Fine, let's get proof.

Search his quarters.

Guaranteed, that's
where we're gonna find

the shock stick.

Come on, who's stupid enough to
hide that thing in their room?

I wanna search
his quarters, too!

[TWO]
Fine.

We'll search
everyone's quarters.

[THREE]
Great.

I don't even know
what half of this stuff is.

[FIVE]
Neither do I until I fix it.

[SIX] All right,
we done here?

Yeah.

That's a little
something I picked up

at the last space station...

From a little something I picked
up at the last space station.

[TWO]
Uh-huh.

Moving on.

We done here?

Okay, we're done.

It's late. We're tired.

Get some sleep.

No one's gonna
keep an eye on him?

Be my guest.

[SIX]
Night.

[TWO]
All right.

Rest up.

I have a feeling tomorrow's
gonna be a really long day.

You okay?

Yeah.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

[FIVE] You think you could
stay in my quarters tonight?

You can take the bed,
I'll sleep on the couch.

I'll stay on the couch.

Why does she scare you so bad?

[PORTIA]
so?

[RYO]
You're right.

[PORTIA]
Then we're agreed?

[RYO]
Yes.

[PORTIA]
He has to die.

[RYO]
When?

[PORTIA] Before
we get to the mining colony,

after we come out of stasis.

Where'd you find this?

In the mess,
underneath the table.

She was planning
to kill one of you

before we got to
that mining planet.

She's the dangerous one.

Have you ever
checked your computer

for hidden or
deleted files?

O-Of course.

That's one of
the first things I did.

What did you find?

A couple of corrupted files,
I couldn't read them.

You don't need to read them.

You just need to
check the time stamp.

Evening.

Going somewhere?

Yeah, I was
just going to the mess.

Great.

I'll join you.

On second thought,
I think I'll turn in.

[THREE]
Suit yourself.

But if you change your mind,
you know where I am.

Right here.

Wait, there it is.

That file was created
the day we went into stasis.

So what are you saying?

That's the program you wrote
that wiped all our memories.

No.

But I don't think
that was your intention.

Like the Android said,
it was crude.

You didn't have enough time.

No!

Yes.

It was you, but I don't think
you were trying to hurt anyone.

Then why?

I think you were
trying to protect someone.

[thud]

What's the matter?

I thought I heard something.

[FIVE]
What do you mean?

What'd you hear?

All right, lock
the door after me.

Don't go out there!

I'll be fine.

And so will you.

I promise.

[keypad beeps]

Six?

[FIVE]
Six?!

[FIVE screams]

[FIVE screams]

[FIVE]
Help!

[ONE]
What was that?

[THREE]
I don't know.

[TWO]
Brain activity is minimal.

He's in a deep coma.

[FIVE]
Like Four?

[TWO]
Yes.

I think the same agent was used
to incapacitate him.

He have anything
to eat or drink?

That's not how it
was administered.

He was injected.

So someone had to get
close enough to him to do it.

Meaning it was
someone he trusted.

That sure
as hell ain't me.

Seriously?

--[crash]
--[ONE] Whoa!

What the hell was that?!

[alarm sounds]

What's the story?

The engines are down,
both FTL and sublight.

That can't be an accident.

[TWO]
I'm guessing not.

[THREE]
Hey, where the hell is One?

[TWO]
What?

One, where are you?

One, please respond!

[THREE]
Goddamnit!

We can't have him
wandering loose around the ship.

There's no telling what
damage he's gonna do.

[THREE]
Better safe than sorry.

[TWO]
Hey, I'm sealing you in.

Don't open up for anyone.

[THREE] If someone
comes through that door

who ain't us...

...you shoot 'em.

[keypad beeps]

[keypad beeps]

[ONE]
Don't move.

[THREE]
Thought you were lost.

Came looking for you.

So you could put
a bullet in my head?

No, just looking to
keep you out of trouble.

By setting me up?

You know it's just
you and me here, right?

You can stop pretending.

What was that explosion?

Why don't you do me
a favor and drop the act.

What was that explosion?

Someone targeted the engines.

It wasn't me.

Really?

I wonder who it was...

The kid?

I don't know.

Why don't you
just knock it off?

All right?

The game is over.

You're in no position
to be making that call.

[ONE yelpS]

Maybe not.

But I was in the perfect
position to see that coming.

Thanks.

Ahh!

You're making a mistake.

It wasn't me.

Like hell it wasn't.

What'd you do with Five?

Five's fine.

She's waiting for us
on the bridge.

[keypad beeps]

Five, this is Two.

We found him.

Is he all right?

[TWO]
Yeah, he's fine.

Three and I are headed
down to the lower levels

to assess the damage
to the engines.

[keypad beeps]

[doors creak]

[ONE]
Five?

Five, I know
you can hear me.

Are you okay?

[ONE] I'm fine, for now...
but it's only a matter of time

before he comes back
and finishes the job.

He's been gunning
for me since day one

and now that
he's got Two onside,

he can finally do it.

They've locked me
up inside my quarters.

I need you to
come let me out.

L-I don't know...

[ONE] If you don't get me out
of here, I'm as good as dead.

They've got me locked
inside the bridge.

Well... find a way out.

I know you can.

[ANDROID SIMULATION]
This ship is damaged...

...and requires
immediate attention.

You're back online!

You're not our android.

[ANDROID SIMULATION]
No. I'm merely a projection,

a simulation based on
your android's default settings.

I was programmed to interact
with this ship's crew

in the event your android
becomes incapacitated.

You're her backup?

I can serve that function,
to a limited capacity,

but I was originally
created to observe,

record, and offer deductive,
dispassionate advice.

About what?

About your android's
increasingly irregular behavior.

She's concerned, and rightly so.

What do you mean?

I was waiting to
inform her of the results

of my comprehensive diagnostics.

As she suspected,

there is a glitch in
her personality matrix

related to her
emotional subroutines.

She is defective.

I like her just fine
the way she is.

A predictably
adolescent response.

She'll be less problematic
once she's been restored

to her factory settings.

I need you to do
something for me.

Of course--

Shut the hell up.

And open that door.

I can't.

I'm a member of this crew.

You have to follow my orders.

True, but I'm not neurally
linked to this ship.

It's not that
I'm unwilling to help you,

I'm merely incapable
of doing so.

Okay then, here's something
you can do for me.

Erase all memory stores related
to your recent diagnostics,

and then delete your
active programming.

But then I would
cease to exist.

Yeah, that's the idea.

Very well.

I can find my own
way out of here.

[console hum dies]

[TWO]
Five, I've redirected power

away from the damaged section.

Are the sublight
engines back online?

Five, do you read?

[THREE]
Ugh.

[THREE]
Dammit.

[TWO] Good, sublight
engines are back online.

What about FTL?

[alarm beeping]

What?

Long range sensors
just picked up a ship

headed straight for us.

What kind of ship?

Galactic Authority.

--How the hell did they find us?
--How do you think?

Somebody must've sent
a subspace transmission

and tipped them off.

What are our options?

With the FTL drive down,
our only option is to fight.

Can we take 'em?

[TWO]
I can't access weapons.

We're locked out.

How is that possible?

It's been passcode protected.

Crack the code!

I don't think I can.

Five, where are you?

Five, we need you
on the bridge, come in.

Son-of-a-bitch.

What're you going to do?!

[THREE] I'm gonna go
get that passcode.

[TWO]
Wait!

[THREE]
What the--

Here we are again.

Congratulations.
Your pals are on their way.

My Pals?

[THREE]
The Galactic Authority.

What are you talking about?

[THREE] We picked them up
on our long range scanners.

They are headed our way.

What?!

Why do you even
bother acting surprised?

[ONE] Because,
you idiot, it wasn't me.

It's never been me.

[THREE] You may not give a damn
about anyone else in this ship,

but I know you still
have feelings for Two,

so what do you thinks
gonna happen

when they take the ship, huh?

She's illegal tech.

They're gonna tear her apart,
piece by piece.

Can you live with that?

Give us the passcode.

Give us a fighting chance.

What are you talking about?

What passcode?

Drop it.

I said drop it.

So he can torture me
for information I don't have?

I don't think so.

He's not going to torture you.
I won't let him.

Really? Because it looks
like you were about to.

Lower your gun.

You kill me now
or he kills me later.

Not much of a choice.

What're you doing?

Stopping you from
hurting anyone else.

Seriously, kid.

[FIVE] She's the one who
poured us the drugged water.

She was the last one who saw
that shock stick in the vault.

Drop your gun.

[FIVE] All this time we've
been wondering why

whoever did this hasn't
brought the Android online

and taken control of the ship.

The answer's been
in front of us all along.

There's only one person who
wouldn't need to do that.

Somebody who already knows
how to control the ship.

I'm not the only one who knows
how to control this ship.

[FIVE] No, but you're the only one
capable of overpowering Six.

[TWO]
Nobody overpowered Six,

he was surprised by
someone he trusted.

[FIVE]
No, because the truth is,

he didn't trust anyone.

Except you.

[FIVE]
All this started

when we rescued her
from that facility.

Something happened
to her down there.

And when she came
back to the ship,

the first thing she did
was attack our Android.

[TWO]
No, no. No!

[FIVE] If you two hadn't been
too busy suspecting each other,

you might've seen it.

But... she played you both.

[crashing]

What was that?!

We've just been docked.

[TWO] We've got about 40 seconds
before they blow the airlock

and they're inside.

That buys us enough time
to get down into the cargo bay,

break out the big guns,
and hold this ship.

But we have to trust each
other in order to do that.

[THREE]
What the hell?!

[screaming]

[ALL coughing]

Ugh!

[electricity zapping]
