What is it?

13
00:06:44,280 --> 00:06:46,795
Well, it looks like a door. And it's closed.

14
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,037
Zen's fixed the orbit of the mineral
asteroid Tarrant was talking about.

15
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,680
We have half an hour
to decide if we go after it.

16
00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,639
Why not? It's something else to chase.

17
00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:11,954
- A sketch of a place I used to know.
- Auron.

18
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,318
Yes, Auron.

19
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,835
It's pointless to think about it.
I'll never see it again.

20
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,391
That's why you've been shut in here
for 10 hours, thinking about Auron...

21
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,711
- and how you'll never see it again?
- That's why.

22
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:27,190
I wish I could promise you...

23
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,591
the sparkling company on deck
would take you out of yourself.

24
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,837
- I'm all right.
- No, you're not.

25
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,355
But you will be.
Regret is part of being alive.

26
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,273
- But keep it a small part.
- As you do?

27
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,354
Demonstrably.

28
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,837
- I think I'm going to win this time, Avon.
- Congratulations.

29
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,434
You can't.

30
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,794
- Yes, you can.
- Vila didn't win again.

31
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,473
It was your fault. You put me off.

32
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,995
With pleasure.
On the first planet we come to.

33
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,912
Here, take a look at this.
That asteroid's less than 32 hours away.

34
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,593
But we'll still be cutting it fine.

35
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,876
Let's get going.
There's nothing keeping us here.

<i>a vessel is approaching.</i>

<i>- Negative.</i>

38
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,231

<i>- There is no specific speed.</i>

39
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,357
<i>The vehicle is apparently adrift.</i>

40
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:33,669
- Damaged?
<i>- Negative.</i>

41
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:34,876
Put it on visual.

42
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,680
<i>Confirmed. Scanners in operation.</i>

43
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,759
Doesn't maintain your usual standards,
Zen.

44
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,631
- Some kind of alien.
- It's like nothing I've ever seen before.

45
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,871
An alien spaceship has aliens on it,
right?

46
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,350
My experience of aliens
hasn't exactly been warming.

47
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,399
Your experiences with humans
haven't quite been glowing either.

48
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,314
- Zen, any idea where she comes from?
<i>- Negative.</i>

49
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,234
<i>No comparative data is available.</i>

50
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,279
<i>Primary analysis suggests</i>
<i>the design is eccentric...</i>

51
00:09:02,560 --> 00:09:04,392
<i>and may be decorative</i>
<i>rather than functional.</i>

52
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,600
What about manpower,
or whatever power it's got?

53
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,549
<i>The ship registers no life signs.</i>

54
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,838
Well, if it really were alien
it may not register as life.

55
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,555
<i>Alien vessel is now stationary.</i>

56
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,791
- Distance?
<i>- 200 spatials.</i>

57
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,635
That's a little too perfect for something
that is registering as unmanned.

58
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,996
- We signal?
- Give me a reason.

59
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:26,510
A reason? It's out there.

60
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,600
In other words, you're bored.

61
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,037
I don't believe in missing chances.

62
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,316
Any chance this offers
is purely hypothetical.

63
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,790
However, any minerals
we pull off that asteroid...

64
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,917
are unique
and therefore conceivably useful.

65
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:41,072
And once its orbit takes it back
into the perimeter of its sun...

66
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,277
we lose it for another three months.

67
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:44,760
I still give this priority.

68
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,675
- We can't just ignore it.
- No, Avon, we can't.

69
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,633
Something else to chase?

70
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,960
Very well, as you are all so eager...

71
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,391
Zen, signal the alien.

72
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:58,954
<i>Confirmed.</i>

74
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,240

75
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:05,556
What?

76
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,950
- You picked up on something.
- No.

77
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,760
How could I? I'm an Auron.

78
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,032
The only message I can receive
is from one of my own people.

79
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,318
- I know.
- But you're still psi-developed, Cally.

80
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:21,231
You can read minds sometimes. Did you?

81
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,752
- Not then.
- I don't believe her.

82
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,069
Leave it. She just told you.

83
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,720
Only an Auron can communicate directly
to another Auron.

84
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,191
That thing is not an Auron ship.
Zen, confirm negative response.

85
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:32,953
<i>Negative response confirmed.</i>

86
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,509
Now, we have another decision to make.

87
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,035
Somehow that ship has moored itself
conveniently close.

88
00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,349
Do we teleport aboard?

89
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,080
I suggest a party of three
for maximum cover, and armed.

90
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,391
Why do I get the feeling
you've planned this for weeks?

91
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,200
Very well. Vila, Cally, get three guns.
Get to the teleport.

92
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,633
- And do what?
- You...

93
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,112
will remain here as back-up with Dayna.

94
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,474

97
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,997
- Something went wrong?
- You can say that again.

98
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,640
- You were both seconds behind me.
- Dayna, what happened?

99
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:23,796
Nothing happened.

00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,520
<i>I was late getting here</i>
<i>and Vila arrived on his head.</i>

101
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,920
Nothing showed up as wrong.
I'll get Zen to check it out.

102
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,036
<i>Do that.</i>

103
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,750
We are going to get back, aren't we?
I shouldn't like to spend my life here.

104
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,878
- Don't worry, it wouldn't be a long one.
- Wonderful. What do you mean?

105
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,590
Zen promised us an oxygen atmosphere
but it's pretty thin on the ground.

106
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,953
Though it must have been denser
at one time, to cause so much of this.

107
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,271
You kept Tarrant out. Why?

108
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,511
His enthusiasm can be distracting.

109
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,798
- What are these coloured ribbons?
- Perhaps they were having a party.

110
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,395
According to Zen,
this ship has this one single deck.

111
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,278
Do you notice anything?

112
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,400
No instrument panels?

113
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,472
No navigational
or drive systems whatsoever.

114
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,952
It's unlikely that
they would corrode without trace.

115
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,030
Avon, look at this.

116
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,599
- Whatever it was, it was humanoid.
- I don't think I want to see.

117
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,275
This isn't a ship, it's a tomb.

118
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,919
They, whoever they are or were,
sealed their dead up inside...

119
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,275
and set it adrift in space.

120
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:56,394
This rubble...

121
00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,319
is the remains of artefacts
buried with the corpse.

122
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,199
- That doesn't seem very hygienic.
- You worked it all out very fast.

123
00:13:02,680 --> 00:13:04,672
- Well, it's obvious.
- Yes.

124
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,118
- These jewels must be priceless.
- Jewels?

125
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:11,874
Vila, don't.

126
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,511
No. I don't think I will.

127
00:13:18,560 --> 00:13:19,789
What's this?

128
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,552
I take it that's a rhetorical question,
or did you really think we knew?

129
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,199
I'd like to take a look at it
before you smash it to bits.

I saw something.

133
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,914
- I think it must have been my reflection.
- You can take modesty too far, you know.

- (DAYNA) <i>Avon! Avon, answer.</i>

of energy build-up all around you.

00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:12,033
You certainly have.
Listen, describe the interior.

139
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,875
<i>- Dust, debris, rather an old corpse.</i>
- What?

140
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,031
Is there any sort of beam
you could have broken?

141
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,034
Probably hundreds.

142
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,114

<i>We may have tripped a few wires, yes.</i>

145
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,033
That ship must have
an anti-intruder device rigged.

146
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,113
You've activated it.

147
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:39,075
Avon,
I think you're now inside a live bomb.

148
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,239
Then get us out of here fast
and do it right this time.

149
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,358

you used that source

Give Vila this gun...

- Will he do it?
- Make sure he does.

But not Cally.

395

Somehow something came off
that alien ship and onto <i>Liberator.</i>

To do it, it used the device
Cally brought with her, and it used Cally.

itself a brand-new physical shape.

00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,077
- One is missing.
- No.

511
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,235
Remember my mental link with Cally.

512
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:39,037
Naturally I know who is here
and who isn't, particularly if it's Avon.

513
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,239
Where is he, Dayna?

514
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,874
Very well, let me guess.

515
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,437
He's outside in the corridor...

516
00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:52,160
as you were before he failed
to stop you rushing in here.

517
00:40:59,920 --> 00:41:02,515
I didn't try to stop her.
I just got out of her way.

518
00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,836
I don't think you should look at me
like that.

519
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:08,195
Don't you?

520
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:12,877
I might interpret it as insolence,
which could be uncomfortable for you.

521
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:16,313
- Could it?
- Yes, it could, Avon.

522
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,075
But you are always practical, aren't you?

523
00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:24,591
- Have you decided to accept my terms?
- Have you offered some?

524
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:29,199
You will have heard me, I think,
from the corridor...

525
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,478
just as you watched me earlier
from the other corridor.

526
00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:36,873
I didn't hear any terms,
just something about pets.

527
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:41,357
Cally would want you to live, I know that.

528
00:41:43,240 --> 00:41:46,551
It must get tiresome for you,
knowing so much.

529
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:49,838
- Avon, say you'll do as she says.
- Vila, be quiet!

530
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:54,837
He has an unusually sharp intelligence,
which can recognise when it's beaten.

531
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,280
I might forgive him
for wanting to steal my ring.

532
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,158
Cally stole your ring.

533
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,233
Cally was supposed to.

534
00:42:03,240 --> 00:42:05,914
I hope you made her a touching farewell.

535
00:42:06,840 --> 00:42:08,797
She's not dead yet.

536
00:42:09,720 --> 00:42:13,236
But she won't struggle, not against me.

537
00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:17,918
I'm waiting for your answer.

538
00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,479
Stay where you are.

539
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,910
Very well, now you can see me properly.

540
00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:38,479
I like you, Avon.

541
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:42,989
You're stronger than the rest.
Cally liked you.

542
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,836
You can console yourself
now I'm so very much in her image.

543
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,434
I could even think and feel as she does.

544
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,271
You and I can be friends.

545
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:55,999
You surprise me.

546
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,876
You know that I wouldn't wish
to make a slave of you, don't you?

547
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:03,156
Not you.

548
00:43:03,240 --> 00:43:05,630
Pity you couldn't get rid
of me earlier, and Vila.

549
00:43:05,720 --> 00:43:09,555
When you jammed the teleport so only
Cally'd get out of your coffin alive.

550
00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:12,679
- I was mistaken.
- Yes, Cally wouldn't leave us to die.

551
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,150
So you had to let us through,
very reluctantly.

552
00:43:15,240 --> 00:43:17,675
You knew where the danger
would be right from the start.

553
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,634
You are taking this ship
precisely nowhere.

554
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,197
Don't be foolish. You spoil yourself.

555
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:28,630
But I'll be patient with you.
I've waited centuries.

556
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,039
I can afford a few moments
until you can bring yourself...

557
00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,157
to consent to be obliging.

558
00:43:34,240 --> 00:43:37,870
And no one aboard this ship
is going to accept or carry out...

559
00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:40,031
a single demand of yours.

560
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,557
- You've seen what I can do.
- It would be a little difficult to miss.

561
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,150
Don't try to play games with me.

562
00:43:46,240 --> 00:43:48,550
Nothing was further from my mind.

563
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,475
You've given us your terms,
now I will give you ours.

564
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:54,320
No deal.

565
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,830
I thought you were the clever one.

566
00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,635
You're a fool, like Tarrant.

567
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,234
The pain Tarrant is experiencing...

568
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,279
visualise that pain and much more.

569
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,034
You're as close to death
as you have ever been.

570
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,631
Think about human death, Avon.
Irrevocable.

571
00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:17,554
I have thought about it.
What's keeping you?

572
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,279
What did you say?

573
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:23,272
You claim you can kill me.
You better get on with it.

574
00:44:23,720 --> 00:44:25,313
Make me die.

575
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:27,869
There's nothing else
you can make me do.

576
00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:50,640
One last chance.

577
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:55,989
Save it.

578
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,358
It seems you made another mistake.
Cally has loyalties after all.

579
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,194
But you knew that right
from the beginning, didn't you?

580
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:40,633
You look so beautiful when you're angry.

581
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:02,914
Thank you.

582
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,440
Give it to me.

583
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:08,273
That would be a little foolish...

584
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,511
when I just went to so much trouble
to get it.

585
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:12,478
- You don't understand.
- Don't I?

586

by high technology?

587
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,151
This ring is the real source
of your power.

588
00:46:17,240 --> 00:46:20,551
This is how you formed your link
with Cally and you cannot hold her...

589
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,314
or feed off this ship without it.

590
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:27,798

I have to keep this body. I have to live.

594
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:44,589
I've waited so long. Centuries.

595
00:46:45,120 --> 00:46:47,680
More time than you could comprehend.

596
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:51,598
How can you imagine
what it must be like to be dead.

597
00:46:52,080 --> 00:46:55,357
To exist in nothingness, in nowhere.

598
00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,560
Blind, deaf, dumb...

599
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,994
and yet to be sentient, aware, waiting.

600
00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:05,718
Centuries of waiting.

601
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:09,390

602
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:12,435

00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:17,360

to live.

(SOLEMN INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

614
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:44,470
All right.

615
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,355
Cally was telepathically linked
into that thing.

616
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:51,070
So Avon gambled that Cally
could be shocked into fighting it...

617
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:54,870
and that it couldn't kill him because
Cally wouldn't let it. And it worked.

618
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:58,397
But that means that Cally sat back
while it had a go at the rest of us.

619
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:01,200
- I've always liked Cally.
- You're being pedantic, Vila.

620
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:04,159
- I am?
- In the end, it wasn't trying to kill us.

621
00:49:04,240 --> 00:49:07,756
Just Avon. He pushed it into a corner
where it couldn't do anything else.

622
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:09,240
Wasn't trying to kill us?

623
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:11,516
It nearly killed me
when it fixed the teleport.

624
00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,354
That was before it totally linked
with Cally.

625
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:18,076
She didn't have any influence over it
except that it had to protect her.

626
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:21,232
Anyway, Avon was the target then, too.
You were incidental.

627
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,835
Incidental?
That'll look good on my gravestone.

628
00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:24,910
It nearly killed Cally.

629
00:49:25,720 --> 00:49:27,996
It was absorbing her
rather than killing her.

630
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:29,958
Making her part of itself.

631
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:32,953
She felt that, too,
that's why she couldn't fight for herself.

632
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,670

- Then obviously it's the right answer.
