War of the Worlds (2019–…): Season 2, Episode 4 - Episode #2.4 - full transcript

I found him.

He's a Professor of Neurogenetics
at the University of London.

We need to get to London.

What's in London?

Him.

Stop the car.

There.

There are too many.

Are you sick?

I have a headache.

So take the pills.



I'm going to.

Show me. Show me the pills.

What?

You think I'm
taking drugs again?

I know you're upset about Theo. I
know how hard that must be for you.

You were doing so well...

I'm pregnant.

Shit.

You're supposed to
say congratulations.

Is it Nathan's?

You think I was sleeping
with all the soldiers?

No.

He doesn't know.

I'm not going to keep it.



These are to terminate
the pregnancy.

Is that what you want?

I don't know.

I don't know if I
can bring a baby

into this world.

Not after what happened to Theo.

And to that little girl.

Maybe it's for the best.

I'm sorry.

The stars are so
much clearer now.

The galaxies are
moving away from us.

They're moving
faster and faster.

Eventually they'll reach
the speed of light.

When that happens, one by
one the stars will disappear.

It will be total darkness.

Is that supposed to cheer me up?

Sorry.

How long do we have
until it happens?

Millions of years.

That soon?

The man who came to
the observatory...

Why did he believe he
could change things?

Surely it's too late?

Perhaps they don't
think like that.

What do you mean?

Their understanding of
physics is way beyond ours.

I think they can
conceive of a world

where many different realities
exist at the same time.

I struggle to imagine a life
different to the one I have lived.

You have no regrets?

Things you'd change
if you could?

Perhaps I would have seen
a little more of the world.

My wife, my children -
they were everything to me.

And you?

I don't know.

Maybe I would try and spend more
time with the people in my life.

But then you might
not have the knowledge

you need to change anything.

That's true.

Perhaps it's not
so simple for you.

Cheers.

- It's beautiful.
- Yes.

When I see this, it makes me glad
you stopped me taking my own life.

I spent too much time
looking at the stars.

I didn't see things that
were right in front of me.

We are all guilty of that.

I wish I'd told my wife
that I loved her more often.

I should have told my children
that I was proud of them.

The animals need feeding.
The cows needed milking.

There was always
something else to do.

Always.

Did you take the pill?

Not yet.

What?

What are you doing? You're
styling my hair now?

I remember when they brought
you home from the hospital.

You remember that?

Of course.

You were so small.

So beautiful.

I was desperate to hold you...

You should keep the baby.

You said I should get rid of it?

What do I know?

I know about stars,
and equations.

What if I can't keep them safe?

We'll go to London.

I'll work out how
to change things.

I'll do it for
you and your baby.

You don't even
know if you can...

I can try.

I want another chance.

What do you mean?

I was a rubbish
big sister to you.

Not completely.

I'll try and be a
much better aunt.

You should keep the baby.

I want to but...

I'm scared.

I need a reason for doing this.

We'll make a better future for
you, for you and your baby.

Don't make a decision
you might regret.

Okay.

You're going to keep it?

Yes.

You're going to
be a great mum...

This kid better
not take after me.

I hope it's just like you.

What's going on?

What?

I'm pregnant.

How?

You need me to
draw you a diagram?

I love you.

I love you too.

Ash is dead.
Someone stabbed him.

We'll be in Calais
around midday.

You think it's safe?

Sorry. I don't think we'll
be able to go much further.

Over there, to the right.

Yes.

I really need to fart.

Fast!

Get out! Is everyone okay?

I didn't see where
the shots came from.

Quick!

Come on, faster!

They're on top of
the containers.

Wait!

Inside! Go!

We can't stay here!

I'll slow you down. You go.

We're not leaving you.

You cannot change
anything if you are dead.

For the baby.

I know you don't
believe. It's all I have.

- Thank you.
- Help me.

Here. Pull the pin and
release the handle.

- Just like in the movies.
- Like the movies.

Catherine.

Have faith. In
whatever you do. Okay?
