[Patty inhales deeply]

[Patty sighs]

It's small, but it's definitely a Womb.

[Misprint groans]

[Misprint] Someone has been printed here.

[typing on keypad]

How are there two of you?

[approaching footsteps]

[Patty laughing, humming a tune]

[Patty B] I was printed before Nina.

So I could take the RA bomb
without anyone knowing.



[Oscar] Patty? You...

[computer]
Consent of all crew members is required

for Atmospheric Transformer Deployment.

Please provide proper bio-authentication.

[gasps] No, stop! [grunts]

Don't move.

[Oscar] Everybody, calm down.

Patty, are those eyes...

[Patty A] When I had the chance, I took
some biomaterial from the printing room.

[Oscar] To print our eyes? But how?

[computer] Bio-authentication of
all crew members confirmed.

Initiating Atmospheric Transformer
Deployment sequence.

Remaining time until launch, ten minutes.

[Nina breathing shakily]



Mack, can you hear me?

There's something going on
in the central control room.

[Oscar] But there's no record of
the Womb printing you.

- Let's go.
- Yeah.

There's no record of me being printed
because I wasn't printed in this Womb.

I was printed by a smaller bio-printer
that's been hidden in the research lab.

A smaller one?

[Patty A] Our organization provided it.

It was made by Alternative Intelligence.

A compact,
next-generation model of the Womb.

It may lack in accuracy,
but prints extremely fast.

[Nina] Why?

To make sure
the terraforming operation fails.

Lewis, I know you're there!

Damn it, Patty.

We need the engineer's code
for the final deployment

of the Atmospheric Transformer.

Can I have your pass code, please?

Why are you doing this?

[Nina grunts]

[Patty A] Our organization
protects animals from the abuse of humans.

[Misprint pants]

[Misprint] It's blocked off.

They're not going to let us near
the central control room.

[Misprint]
Outside. We can climb along the hull.

We need space suits.

We'll have to print a custom one for you.
This way.

[Patty A] The Planetary Development Agency
has sent a probe

to Planet X-10 ahead of this mission.

[Lewis] Yes, but there was a malfunction.
Half the data was lost.

[Patty A]
That's what they told the public.

The data received was so shocking
that they never revealed the full report.

[Oscar] What are you guys talking about?

[Patty A] We're talking about
the life forms we're trying to save.

[Lewis] Life forms? Are you telling me...

Our organization got a hold of
the findings

that the Planetary Development Agency
had been hiding.

Life exists on that planet.

- [Nina] But...
- [Oscar] What?

There's a fragile ecosystem
just beneath the surface.

If we terraform the planet,
the organisms living there will die.

This mission isn't an immigration.

It's an invasion, a genocide.
We can't let it happen.

[computer] Atmospheric Transformer
pre-launch complete.

Ready for final deployment.

Lewis?

We need that code.

[Patty A]
According to the unreleased data,

they didn't find any of the life forms
in the ice caps.

The explosion shouldn't affect them.

[Lewis] What happens if I don't
detach the Atmospheric Transformer?

[Patty A]
The bomb will detonate either way.

The difference is whether or not
we blow up with it.

[Oscar] Lewis, maybe it's better
to do as they say?

[Lewis] Fine. I'll do it.

[gasps] Why is he giving in?

[Misprint] Because of Kate.

Lewis, why?

[Lewis] Kate's memories,
physical blueprint,

biomaterial makeup, they're all here.

If the ship explodes, she's gone forever.

If the necklace is safe,
you always have hope.

It might not work this time,
but you still have a chance.

[computer] Atmospheric Transformer
engineer's pass code accepted.

Deployment in ten seconds.

Nine. Eight. Seven.

Six. Five. Four.

Three. Two. One.

[all grunting, groaning]

[Nina grunting, breathing heavily]

[both grunting, groaning]

[blade clanking]

[both grunting, groaning]

Don't move.

[Oscar grunts]

[both grunting, groaning]

[Oscar groans]

[gasping, grunting]

[gasps]

[Nina] Watch out!

[breathing deeply]

[giggling]

[laughing]

[Lewis grunts]

[all straining]

[both gasp]

[Patty A] Nice try, guys.

- I've locked down the hangar.
- Patty!

What are you going to do with us?

[Patty A] You'll have to stay there
till everything's over.

[Mack] You'll pay for this
when the migrant vessel arrives.

You'll be prosecuted.

[Patty A] My original on the ship
will be arrested. She won't resist.

She went into cryosleep
knowing this would happen.

- [Oscar] Is he gonna be okay?
- [Nina sighs]

Lewis, it'll be all right.

- [Mack] You don't think you'll be caught?
- [Patty A] Me? No.

A hundred years from now,
I'll be long gone.

I'm not going into cryosleep.

I'm going to live on X-10
and study the life forms until I die.

And then I'll be part of the ecosystem.

[gasping]

He's lost a lot of blood.
It's not looking good.

[Patty A] Mack, you changed the data
on the drones, didn't you?

I don't need to explain anything to you.

[Patty A] Did the higher-ups tell you
to erase the data to protect the mission?

They put enough money into this project
to run a small country.

Of course, they couldn't let a thing

like the extinction of
an entire species stop them.

But how will our descendants judge us

once they realize what was sacrificed
to build their country?

Will future generations consider me
a criminal or a martyr?

[Oscar, gasping] Damn.

[straining]

[grunting]

[Nina gasps]

[Nina] Lewis, Mack, can you hear me?

Nina.

[Misprint] What's happening
with the Atmospheric Converter?

It's descending onto Planet X-10.
It'll explode in eight Earth hours.

All right.

I'll help you guys.

[Patty B] Why would you do that?

[Oscar] If there's life on that planet,
public opinion will side with you.

If I help you, then I too will get credit
for the discovery,

and my name will never be forgotten.

So, you're betraying your crew for fame?

I'm doing it for my family.

[scoffs]

[typing on keypad]

[Patty A, gasping] What is this light?

[Misprint] There's still some time
before the bomb explodes.

We can use the escape pods
to get to the planet.

We enter the Transformer,
find the bomb and disarm it.

But first,
we have to get out of this hangar.

- [bangs]
- [Mack breathes shakily]

The drones. We'll use the drones.

[Nina] You're sure that will work?

[Mack] I'm pretty sure,

but I can't predict
what it will do to the ship.

You should get out too.

[Lewis] Nina, go.

[Nina]
I can't leave you in this condition.

I'll be fine.

Nina, if the...

if the Atmospheric Transformer
is destroyed,

what was the point of our creation?

All right.

The Atmospheric Transformer's descent
is complete.

[Patty B] Copy that.

So, Oscar says he wants to work with us.

Really? If we have
any mechanical issues, he'd be useful.

That's true. We can't trust him.

[Oscar] Where are you going?

I need some equipment
that'll save Lewis's life.

- [Oscar] Equipment?
- A cooling core.

The only way to save him now
is to use cryosleep technology.

If we put him in suspended animation,
he'll have a chance.

I'll go with you.
Oscar, you stay with Lewis.

- Let me know if anything happens.
- [Oscar] Got it.

[Nina] What the hell?

I'm sorry. I've decided to help them.

[Nina scoffs]

[breathes heavily]

[straining]

[Patty B] How's Lewis doing?

[Nina] Not good. Let's take a shortcut.

[Nina]
Why did Oscar decide to help you two?

He wants some sort of accolade.

Accolade?

In the past, there's been
signs of life outside of Earth,

but only the remnants.

But not this time.

Yes.

They're the first extraterrestrial
life forms humans have discovered.

Oscar seems to understand
the importance of that.

We'll protect them at any cost.

[Nina] That's why you were printed.

I pity you.

- [Patty B grunts]
- [Nina straining]

[Patty B] Did you say you pity me?

That's right.

[grunts]

[groans, grunts]

- [grunts, gasps]
- [alarm sounding]

[groans]

Both of us were created
to serve a purpose!

- [both grunting]
- But I'm proud of why I was.

No self-doubt at all? I envy you.

[both grunt]

[Patty B groans]

[grunting]

[Nina panting]

I'm here. What's your code?

Got it.

[pants, grunts]

[banging on door]

[Nina] From what I can see,
it looks like a normal transmitter.

[Patty B] Open up, Nina. Open up!

[Mack] There's a sub-routine
to send direct orders to the drones.

Here's how to access it.

[Nina] I'm in.

[Mack] Okay. Now set the destination.

Yes.

[bangs]

[groans]

Can you hear me?
Nina's locked herself in Mack's quarters.

[Patty B] Are you able to open the doors
from the main console?

[Patty A] I'll give it a try.

[Mack] The Administrative Authority
overrides all safety measures.

No one can countermand it.

[gasps]

Is the trajectory...

[gasps]

It's not responding. I can't stop it.

Ugh!

[Patty B] What have you done?

You'll find out soon enough.

Oh, shit! It's gonna hit us.

[both grunting, groaning]

[Misprint, Mack grunting]

[both straining]

- [Mack yells]
- [Misprint strains]

[Oscar grunting]

[Lewis groaning]

[Patty B grunting]

[both grunting, groaning]

[breathes shakily]

[Misprint groaning, breathing heavily]

Let's head to the escape pods
and get to Planet X-10.

Copy that.

[grunting, groaning]

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Hey, Patty, what the hell is going on?

[rapid beeping]

Damn it.

Lewis, I'm headed
to the central control room.

I'll be right back.

[Lewis exhales heavily]

[Oscar panting]

The ship is...

No.

[groans]

[Lewis] Kate.

[Kate chuckles]

[Lewis] You're here.

When it's ready,
we're going to live on that planet.

I'll bring you back.

I promise.

[gasps]

It's a beautiful planet.

[Lewis sighs]

Yeah, it is.
