Speaker A
All right, you all right? Relaxation, right? They tried to access areas that they shouldn't, and the Rosie's core was self-destruct.
00:33
Speaker A
I got this covered. You feel confident that something will do their thing? I'm not going to drink in a crew lounge.
01:13
Speaker A
Sure, I could use a drink. It's harder to Fred this time to shed around. Always generous, thoughtful, sometimes a whining little prick. We're gonna miss you, pal. Wherever you are, I hope no one there needs medical attention. I'm saying
01:38
Speaker A
to those brave, crazy bastards who got us off the Donature. Hey, a little respect. I have nothing but respect. And what's your problem? Gung-ho military hypnotized by a uniform? Fanatics, religious freaks? Those Marines get to save themselves, go home to their families
02:08
Speaker A
instead of coming back for us. Yeah, well, it did take some convincing. I know it was because of you. Why did you come back for us? I know you're only there because of me. Why would you have come back for me?
02:41
Speaker A
A time with all those bullets flying? Probably not. So what's next for Naomi Nagata? Blows over? No, another. I'm using my last remaining brain cells to try and kill my last remaining, so let's get to work on that, shall we?
03:18
Speaker A
Hear me? I don't want to do that to us. He might not know. He wouldn't do that to us. Hope you're right. You're weird. No, I was right about you being in charge. It's a [ __ ] job.
04:10
Speaker A
You can have it, son of a [ __ ]. You have butt on you, one who saved a few. We should have saved more. [Music] You're okay there? I think all that radiation failed to give me superpowers. Usually, when we're in dangerous
04:47
Speaker A
situations, you hide your nerves by asking weird, inappropriate questions. Oh, do I? Yeah. I hope that hasn't been irradiated out of you. What's sort of endearing? No, no, I don't think it has. So do you like space gladiator movies?
05:29
Speaker A
[Music] Foreign. I can only imagine what you saw in ours or what it was like to nearly die that way. We did not choose this, but this is our stuff that's going on now. They're the only ones with a chance to stop
07:24
Speaker A
it. Tell me that you're okay. The screw laughs. It's depending on me. You've put your lives in my hands. I'm okay here. Here. All right. Oh, I'm sorry. Not too shabby, right? And since Fred's picking up the tablet
07:49
Speaker A
until the roast is livable, I figured weedled up a lot. Let it go. We fought for nothing, died, we nearly died. Miller just, he got you out of Varus alive. He shot an unarmed man right in the head. An unarmed
08:04
Speaker A
mass murderer. Are you defending him? You can't understand. The only thing he was out for was revenge. No, he cared about all of us. We had Dresden. He was going to talk. We could have used them. We could have what?
08:17
Speaker A
Worked out a deal with a man who casually murdered countless belters, a man who was a threat to all human life. And that is why Miller shot him. He didn't have the right to make that decision, but you do.
08:52
Speaker A
What I have to do now is clean up his mess. You hurt yourself? I just overdid it a bit. I'm fine. See the rusty back in one piece. They need us to be okay. Fine. There's something happening on Eros.
09:12
Speaker A
Protomolecules building something, and we don't know what. How we got one of the prisoners to cooperate, your words, in the data stream. Voices, people talking. But we saw what happened to Julie Mel. He's saying those people are still alive.
09:41
Speaker A
My personal answer, that is done. Eros isn't over yet. I don't think we can save it, but I do know we need to do something, and I know I can't do it without you. Did together. So I don't know what you've heard or if
09:58
Speaker A
you're even gonna get this. The UN will be monitoring your messages, so there's some things I can't talk about. But I just wanted to let you know that I'm okay. This time, I didn't run from the fight. People on this ship, my friends,
10:19
Speaker A
they helped avert a catastrophe, helped save Earth. I hope you get to meet them someday, one in particular. I love your mouth. How come you don't say love you, Mom and Mom and Dad and Mom and Dad and, uh,
10:48
Speaker A
it's understood. Imagine, must have been like on Earth watching arrows coming at you with no way to stop it. I used Arthur Mazda and blow each other up after sheer panic. Well, there's still time for that. Alex, stand by. We're gonna suit up and
11:07
Speaker A
come out. Roger that. Tim, I'm not going with you. What? The protomolecule was here. It could be in 50 other places by now, too. To find all of them, we have to do good where we can, when we can.
11:17
Speaker A
I'm going back to make sure there's some nebulizers up and running, and I'm going to help Melissa get as many people off this station as we can before it dies. If we don't, if we launch that thing out there, a lot more
12:06
Speaker A
people will die. Die every day. I wanted to believe we could stop this. [Music] [Music] Take games with you? Yeah, yeah, I'm good to go. I'm not square. I have enough lights on call when you're ready for lunch.
13:23
Speaker A
Brax, go with them. No, I'm going with you. Thank you. [Music] [Music] You just can't help yourself, can you? Saving everyone. You just can't stop yourself. Thank you. I'm glad you're okay. [Music] Alex says it looks like there might be a
13:53
Speaker A
ship or two heading towards IO. We still have a clear path. He thinks he can keep IO between us and them for the descent. He's earning his pay. Of course, we all basically work for food. Jim, I know you feel like I betrayed you.
14:12
Speaker A
It doesn't matter what I feel. It does. It's almost funny to say this after everything we've been through, but you don't really know me, and that's not your fault. You did what you did, and if you hadn't, Mars would be the only
14:36
Speaker A
one with the protomolecule. You were right about out of the Sarala. Earth doesn't have a sample. What's done is done, but I want you to understand why I did it. You know, I used to run with the OPA.
15:21
Speaker A
I was with someone. He was a romantic and an idealist. He always believed what he was doing was right. You know, I'm not that guy. I had a child with him, a baby boy, Philip. The man I loved took him away.
16:06
Speaker A
I refused to do what he wanted. I was desperate, wrecked, and then finally shut it all off, and I signed up to the Canterbury to disappear. Oh, I just couldn't. But then Arrows happened and Ganymede. Do you know all those belters suffering?
16:39
Speaker A
Yeah, it's so much it made it hard to stain them. I imagine Philip amongst them. Not sorry I gave the protomolecule to them. I'm sorry for the way that I did it. Talk to you first, all of you,
18:03
Speaker A
most of all you. I'm never gonna like what you did, but I can't hate you for doing what you thought was right. Foreign. [Music] I thought maybe that was love, but it was really just the beginning of a
18:54
Speaker A
love story. Foreign answered. I got the boys off the ship. Everyone's okay. They're here now. Oh my God, you all killed. You didn't. Don't believe what's happening is your fault. They won't tell me anything about the speed limit changed.
19:50
Speaker A
I should have left. [Music] Thank you. I, hey, sorry I'm late. I was talking to Fred. I know where my son is. That's incredible. How did you find it? I asked Fred to help me find Philip a while ago,
20:06
Speaker A
and he did. Where is Philip? Palace Station, but he won't be there for long. I have to go there now. Then we'll do whatever it takes to get the Rossi ready to roll. I charted a freight abound for
20:36
Speaker A
Palace. It leaves in a few hours. Okay, I'll get packed. No, I leave in a few hours. You don't want me to go with you. Mother is what they help me. The U.N. and the OPA have a person who
20:49
Speaker A
said it don't this week. He's not. I'm sure of that. You can't do this alone. It's too dangerous. You don't understand. You didn't give me a chance to understand. If I show up with an Earther, with James Holden at my side, it's only
21:30
Speaker A
going to make things harder. I'll stay up with the freighter. At least then I'll be close if you need any help. God, this, I've somehow been able to live with the fact that I saved myself, couldn't save him.
