Quiz at Ilmakiyaj.com. As

1:03

the 21st century dawned it

1:05

marked the beginning of a

1:07

rapid and new expansion for

1:09

humanity, space. The human race

1:11

made many discoveries, some to

1:14

improve our lives, but most

1:16

in the pursuit of even

1:18

more expansion. For those with

1:20

power, always desire more. You

1:22

are aboard the UES Longhouse as

1:24

it swims through the depths of

1:27

Europa. The UES Longhouse's AI, Spark,

1:29

Captain, perhaps you will find it

1:31

useful to know that the facility

1:33

must logically have some method of

1:35

allowing people ingress or egress. Perhaps

1:37

an away team might be able

1:40

to access more information. Well, no

1:42

time like the present, I would

1:44

say. All right, I have a

1:46

little something extra that I can

1:48

equip you with. She has a necklace, she

1:51

opens it up and you see there's a

1:53

teeny tiny key inside of the ready room.

1:55

Come with me to the ready room. You

1:57

all assemble in the ready room?

1:59

Amanda Schaefer reveals a hidden compartment

2:02

in the ready room, which is

2:04

not standard. She has added this,

2:06

Oski. I make a mental note.

2:08

Look, it's worth noting, even if

2:10

it's not my primary reason to

2:13

be here, it's still worth telling

2:15

my superiors. This is an illegal

2:17

modification and void several of her

2:19

warranties. From inside she has created

2:21

a quite cavernous space. There's a

2:24

little locked door which she unlocks

2:26

with the key and a fingerprint

2:28

and Inside this cavernous space she

2:30

produces several items one for each

2:32

of you. She Jackson gives you

2:35

an M three one for motion

2:37

tracker just to give you some

2:39

information about it. It's If you're

2:41

imagining the motion tracker an alien

2:43

or alien, it's bad. Now just

2:46

be aware, it is big and

2:48

bulky, it requires two hands to

2:50

hold, so you can't do anything

2:52

else when you're using it. It

2:54

has a long range indoors, so

2:57

up to, I believe it's up

2:59

to four rooms away, it can

3:01

detect motion, and it has a

3:03

power supply of five, every turn,

3:05

a turn is five to ten

3:07

minutes, every turn you're using it,

3:10

you need to make that power

3:12

supply jack, sure. Sure. the round

3:14

which is five to ten seconds

3:16

anytime you power it on I'm

3:18

still gonna make the check yeah

3:21

yeah that's fine Josh she gives

3:23

you a hey get excited for

3:25

this cow sorry I should say

3:27

she gives you a US 571

3:29

dash C century gun oh oh

3:32

so if you know if you

3:34

remember the century gun from aliens

3:36

uh-huh that it's that That rocks.

3:38

Fantastic. As she's handing it to

3:40

you, she gives you some caveats

3:43

for it. There is no IFF

3:45

tags to go with it, so

3:47

it cannot determine friend from foe.

3:49

You point it in a direction,

3:51

and in that direction, you can

3:54

set it for motion, for heat,

3:56

or for both. That's bad news,

3:58

Gideon's going to get got. When

4:00

you set it in. the direction

4:02

make sure you do not travel

4:05

in that direction unless you turn

4:07

it off. She also gives you

4:09

the deactivation code. You can deactivate

4:11

it at any range but you

4:13

need line of sight. Okay is

4:16

it a vocal code or is

4:18

it a it's a like a

4:20

little clicker thing? Boop, yeah got

4:22

it. Its range is extreme but

4:24

that is four kilometers so yeah

4:27

functionally it's never gonna hit that

4:29

range noted but you know what

4:31

that's just good to have. And

4:33

just remember you need line of

4:35

sight to turn it to turn

4:38

it off and It will engage

4:40

the second you step out. So

4:42

if you are in front of

4:44

it and you try to quickly

4:46

turn it off, it gets a

4:48

shot on you before you get

4:51

to turn it off. Right, I

4:53

should be behind it. Yes. Yes.

4:55

Make sure you're always behind it.

4:57

I noted, Gideon always be in

4:59

front of it. I say out

5:02

of character. Speaking of Gideon. You

5:04

get a Mark 30 compression suit,

5:06

which is not as good as

5:08

military grade, but slightly better than

5:10

what the pilot induced are wearing.

5:13

Okay, so mark 30 compression. It

5:15

gives you armor too. The way

5:17

armor works is anytime you take

5:19

damage, you roll armor as if

5:21

they were D6s, and for every

5:24

success, it reduces the damage by

5:26

one point. Oh, cool. So armor

5:28

too doesn't guarantee you'll knock off

5:30

two points of damage. It guarantees

5:32

you can knock off up to

5:35

two points of damage. And it

5:37

gives you air supply five. Are

5:39

we going to have- I think

5:41

that was the same as the

5:43

other one though? No, the other

5:46

one does negative one agility. This

5:48

does not give you negative one

5:50

agility. With us going aboard, are

5:52

we going to have the compression

5:54

suits again? You can bring the

5:57

shitty compression suits that the ship

5:59

has, so it's negative one to

6:01

agility, air supply five, and the

6:03

patchy Combs network, which in a

6:05

shielded station will probably immediately stop

6:08

working. It'll be good for talking

6:10

to someone else. It's talking to

6:12

someone in the same room as

6:14

you. Right. So it's not recommended

6:16

that we just have our personnel

6:18

armor. It's recommended we have the

6:21

compression suits. The compression suit might

6:23

be clever depending on the situation.

6:25

inside the station if it looks

6:27

structurally unstable you'll probably want to

6:29

have the compression suits on but

6:32

just letting you know it is

6:34

a slow action to both put

6:36

on and take off so if

6:38

you want that point of agility

6:40

back it's a slow action understood

6:43

she gives Jack Denton a small

6:45

box Small black box, it's about

6:47

the size of like a cigar

6:49

case. Jack Denton opens it up,

6:51

his eyes go a bit wide

6:54

and he closes it and tucks

6:56

it in his shirt. He gives

6:58

Amanda a nod, she nods back

7:00

slowly. IM gets a Mark 240

7:02

incinerator unit, aka a flame thrower.

7:05

And before anyone really realizes what's

7:07

happening, Deuce who is standing there

7:09

puts out his hand and says,

7:11

thank you, captain, she looks at

7:13

him, her eyes go wide and

7:16

everyone realizes she had no, she

7:18

had no intention of giving him

7:20

something. She, like. Santa Claus looking

7:22

for the last present at the

7:24

bottom of the bag starts rummaging

7:27

around in this compartment and comes

7:29

up with a candy bar, which

7:31

he gives this. It is a

7:33

crazy comet chompers bite into the

7:35

cosmos of quirk. It is a

7:38

Europa specific candy. Handy got awesome

7:40

in the future. That's what I'm

7:42

hearing. Do we have a chance

7:44

to go to our quarters or

7:46

do any? All right, I'd like

7:49

to go to my quarters, grab

7:51

my briefcase, flip it open, inside

7:53

I've got a stun baton and

7:55

a surface pistol, I'd like to

7:57

take both out and put them

7:59

just on my body, someone under

8:02

my suit jacket or my sports

8:04

jacket or whatever, and take my

8:06

two data transmitter, getting you get

8:08

your little puck as well? Sure,

8:10

I mean there's a lot of

8:13

stuff I have. I've got the

8:15

system diagnostic thing, I've got a

8:17

data transmitter, I've got a motion

8:19

tracker, I've got a PTT thing.

8:21

Now here's a question about that

8:24

neurovisor that I had. How many

8:26

days has it been since the...

8:28

like pod shark incident one day

8:30

one day did he sleep did

8:32

cow sleep that's up to cow

8:35

I would have slept okay how

8:37

how you know the marshal and

8:39

cow probably take turns being awake

8:41

okay so there's no way to

8:43

surreptitiously fuck with his dream. I

8:46

mean cow can't be everywhere. Sorry,

8:48

not cow. The Marshall Denton can't

8:50

be everywhere at once. So I

8:52

will let you know though I

8:54

am sort of restrained to my

8:57

quarters. That's true. And I don't

8:59

sleep. That's right. Do I? I'll

9:01

use one of my never sleeps

9:03

at him. Okay, yeah, that's fine.

9:05

Does that increase your stress by

9:08

one? Okay. We up your stress

9:10

by one. So do I have

9:12

to be directly next to my

9:14

intended? Yeah, you would need to

9:16

be. Okay, so Gideon totally intends

9:19

to fuck up cow's dreams a

9:21

little bit and then under the

9:23

watchful eye Of the ever smiling

9:25

Oski. I don't think he's smiling.

9:27

My eyes aren't. My mouth is.

9:29

I'll be sitting on the bed

9:32

like always with my hands clasped

9:34

in the middle of my lap

9:36

just staring forward. Oh, I'll hop

9:38

into this one. Are you trying

9:40

to not look like an Android?

9:43

This is just what I do,

9:45

and I've got nothing else to

9:47

do, I don't know. Well, that

9:49

looks hellos suspicious, but he's doing

9:51

it. I mean, is there anything

9:54

that, like... quarks to Gideon and

9:56

I got, oh that's real human

9:58

behavior, kind of. I know you

10:00

can't make a role because an

10:02

Android, especially a proper, like the

10:05

disguised ones, they are indistinguishable from

10:07

a human unless you open them

10:09

up. So this. action certainly doesn't

10:11

look like something a human would

10:13

do but it isn't outside the

10:16

especially for someone who's taken never

10:18

sleep it's not outside the realm

10:20

of possibility it's impossible to tell

10:22

without opening him up Are you

10:24

disassociating over there a little bit?

10:27

This is a kind of meditation.

10:29

Oh, cool. Have you come to

10:31

go to bed? No. I was

10:33

just, you know, going to potentially,

10:35

because you guys got to see

10:38

a little bit more of that

10:40

ship than I was, and Cal

10:42

is, as you know, an uncooperative

10:44

bastard. So I was just going

10:46

to see if I could just

10:49

take a little look-see into his

10:51

subconscious to just see the things

10:53

that he saw in there. Can

10:55

I ask you a question, Gideon?

10:57

Always. You are insubordinate. Yes. I

11:00

notice. Thank you. You must be

11:02

skilled then to be on a

11:04

ship like this. I am very

11:06

smart. They are paying you well.

11:08

They are paying me, period. Right,

11:10

so you could do with a

11:13

higher paycheck. Of course. Where we

11:15

are about to go, there might

11:17

be scientific discoveries, information, that kind

11:19

of thing, that might interest you.

11:21

Yes. I assume you're going to

11:24

get the data, yeah? Yes. I

11:26

represent the smart holding, obviously. That

11:28

means I have at my disposal

11:30

a great deal of credits that

11:32

I could offer you. Would you

11:35

like to enter a business partnership?

11:37

What would my end be? I

11:39

would need any of the data

11:41

that you discover while you are

11:43

at our destination. Okay, so internally,

11:46

Gideon is thrilled because she's now

11:48

making a double paycheck on the

11:50

same job. We love to do

11:52

one job and get twice the

11:54

amount of money. Yeah, absolutely. Gideon

11:57

will tilt her head and say...

11:59

I could absolutely do that. I

12:01

would have to, you know, just

12:03

take a look at the data

12:05

as well just to make sure

12:08

that you're getting the complete picture.

12:10

just to let you know, but

12:12

absolutely, I could provide you with

12:14

that information. I think that could

12:16

be arranged. Understand, however, that peacemark

12:19

does not tolerate in subordination. Copy,

12:21

so don't look inside cow's head,

12:23

but we enter a mutually beneficial...

12:25

Oh! Gosh, she's getting everything she

12:27

wants right now. Josh just gave

12:30

me the best look. Of looking

12:32

like, they're talking in the room

12:34

with me sleeping there. Do I

12:36

have any perception check of waking

12:38

up to this conversation? Guess it'd

12:41

be an observation wits role, but

12:43

with a probably a hefty negative,

12:45

I might say three. So. Your

12:47

observation, well that's a wrong person,

12:49

observation wits is four, so it's

12:51

one die. Oh my god, you

12:54

get a success. Cal, you do

12:56

wake up during this conversation, but

12:58

I'm gonna roll your. Mobility agility

13:00

versus air observation widths with them

13:02

to notice that you've woken up.

13:04

Okay. If Gideon beats you, Cal,

13:06

then you wake up at this

13:08

point in the conversation. They've already

13:11

had the talk. So there's nothing

13:13

for you to over here. But

13:15

if you win Cal, then I

13:17

will say that you woke up

13:19

at the beginning of the conversation.

13:21

Does that make sense? That makes

13:23

perfect sense. All right. So it's

13:25

your five. I'll roll it. I'll

13:27

roll it now. her eight and

13:29

that is no success. I'll roll.

13:31

I'll roll. I don't. I yeah,

13:34

I think even on nothing, she

13:36

still wins, but I'll roll just

13:38

so you both got nothing. Cool.

13:40

I'm gonna cash in both of

13:42

my story points. Two successes, Gideon,

13:44

would you like to push or

13:46

cash in story points? If you

13:48

cash in both? Oh, you push?

13:50

Oh, you push? Okay. Well, you

13:52

take a point of stress. You

13:54

panic and you fail. Oh no.

13:57

I don't think you, because you've

13:59

only got one point of stress,

14:01

nothing actually happens. You just feel

14:03

really nervous during this conversation. Maybe

14:05

you feel really nervous because you're

14:07

like, holy shit, I'm about to

14:09

get what I fucking want. Two

14:11

paychecks and permission. Yeah. Cal, you

14:13

wake up the beginning of this

14:15

conversation, you hear the entire thing.

14:17

The snorings I've been doing have

14:20

been me pretending to continue sleeping.

14:22

I on my bed, because obviously the

14:24

end of that conversation was me

14:26

being like, I'm not going to

14:28

say anything. Is it designed? Is

14:30

the bed sort of in such

14:32

a way that I can go from

14:34

facing Cal to turning around and

14:36

facing away? Yes. Like sitting in

14:39

the same position, but I'm just

14:41

not looking? Yeah, absolutely. I'll

14:43

do that. My advisor probably

14:45

only works on somebody that's

14:47

sleeping. And so you can

14:49

feine waking up. Yeah, oh

14:51

yeah, you start doing this

14:53

at the end of the

14:55

conversation because you said, yeah,

14:57

cow, because you mentioned in

14:59

the conversation what you're gonna

15:02

do. Cal, you just feigned

15:04

waking up, I guess. Yeah,

15:06

I'm gonna like move a little

15:08

bit on the bed. Go, is everything

15:10

all right? Oh, sorry to wake you,

15:12

Cal. We were just chatting.

15:14

Oh, okay. Good to know. Oh, you

15:17

get, because you did two successes,

15:19

you've got one more than you

15:21

needed. Do you want to learn

15:23

the tricks that you've done? Yeah,

15:26

I'll do a trick. Impress someone.

15:28

Wow. He works off so good,

15:30

dude. That guy, it mother fuck

15:32

is awake. Military training, man. If

15:35

you can snap up. Give one

15:37

success to another player in the

15:39

same situation, gain a plus one

15:41

modification to a later skill role

15:44

relating to this one, or you

15:46

impress someone. Obviously, you can't

15:49

impress them, but if you

15:51

had some other effect. Like

15:53

intimidating or something? Well, yeah,

15:56

I could, I could, if you, figure

15:58

something out. Let's say, hmm. is really

16:00

freaking light sleeper. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

16:02

Like the second you touch him,

16:05

he gives you the impression of

16:07

like, oh shit, I can't, can't

16:09

get even fucking near him when

16:11

he's sleeping. I would say you

16:14

also notice that. in the hand

16:16

that's not twitching is my pistol.

16:18

That's kind of impressing after a

16:20

fashion. Pretty sure that that is

16:23

not standard for protocol. That is

16:25

not trigger discipline. He's got some

16:27

fucking PTSD. It's guys. Whoa boy.

16:29

It's the only way I can

16:31

sleep. Yeah he's fucked up. And

16:34

then the only other thing Gideon

16:36

would have wanted to do during

16:38

that like... Travel time is if

16:40

there was any other information that

16:43

or study she could do on

16:45

her sample or the information that

16:47

she would like any thought exercises

16:49

of Be that our little burned

16:52

man being clean This goo monster

16:54

and the shit on the ship

16:56

the samples of the goo come

16:58

back difficult to analyze first off

17:01

because you don't have a lot

17:03

of time to the in the

17:05

24 hours there's only so many

17:07

so much time you can spend

17:10

analyzing it you scientifically speaking you

17:12

confirm that this is alien matter

17:14

it detect proteins and amino acids

17:16

and complex structures within this that

17:19

have never been catalogued before on

17:21

earth or on Europa. Oh, alien

17:23

to Europa. You don't know if

17:25

it's necessarily alien to Europa? But

17:28

it's undiscovered on Europa. This is

17:30

undiscovered. And I'm gonna just guess

17:32

that the captain is not gonna

17:34

let me take it a little

17:37

itty-fitty sample of the inside of

17:39

that corpse man. Where is that

17:41

body now? It was on their...

17:43

pod. Did we keep their pod?

17:45

It'll yeah, we moved to medical

17:48

or whatever. No, the Amanda doesn't

17:50

want the pod open. Yeah, and

17:52

the pod is in a room

17:54

that you're not allowed in. That's

17:57

true. Well, that's why I'm asking.

17:59

You got a success on the

18:01

stress die. So maybe you have

18:03

a conversation with Amanda. man is

18:06

like fine whatever move it to

18:08

medical and have a look in

18:10

medical I specifically want to know

18:12

because like his blood was clear

18:15

I want to look at this

18:17

is gross but I want to

18:19

look in his intestines and stuff

18:21

like where all the like natural

18:24

like bacteria of our bodies are

18:26

like really dense like Does he

18:28

have, is he like, is he

18:30

like, is he squeakly clean inside

18:33

too? I'm nearly none, but not

18:35

actually none. Okay. So there is

18:37

some amount of other bacteria in

18:39

his gut, but it is definitely,

18:42

it's like definitely a tiny amount,

18:44

less than a tenth of what

18:46

the human body needs. Clearly what

18:48

happened to him, them, was on

18:51

the outside, like they were like

18:53

heavily burned and like flayed, right?

18:55

Right. Is there any damage to

18:57

the internal organs? It looks all

18:59

external. Okay. I mean, I did

19:02

say some of his muscle has

19:04

been burned away as well. Yeah,

19:06

but nothing is penetrated him. It's

19:08

all on the exterior. Interesting. Okay,

19:11

very cool. Thank you. Okay. Given

19:13

what I heard, I'm going to

19:15

drop that into the notebook that

19:17

I had in a just in

19:20

case I die kind of thing.

19:22

Okay. And I would also like

19:24

to get the captain alone to

19:26

have a... quiet conversation of informing

19:29

her of the business happening on

19:31

her ship. Amanda is such a

19:33

fucking knock. Amanda is deeply concerned

19:35

by that. Maybe at one point

19:38

she like punches the fucking side

19:40

of the ship. She's furious. All

19:42

right, uh, Vell, there is little

19:44

we can do because Oski can...

19:47

levy pretty serious issues against us

19:49

once we get back to shore

19:51

and we have no other marine

19:53

biologists on board. Yes. That being

19:56

said, if one of them does

19:58

not come back, if neither of

20:00

them come back, I would back

20:02

you up. Wow! Whoa! Wow! I

20:05

am not telling you to kill

20:07

them? Oh my God. I am

20:09

just saying I understand if something

20:11

needs to happen. It feels a

20:14

little naive. You're not here. Do

20:16

you trust the marshal? I do

20:18

trust the marshal. I haven't seen

20:20

him in a very long time.

20:22

However, I can trust more so

20:25

that he would do something for

20:27

money more than the correct thing

20:29

to do, if that makes sense.

20:31

Right. I do not want to

20:34

kill somebody on our crew if

20:36

we do not have to. but

20:38

if it endangers the safety of

20:40

our crew, then decisions will need

20:43

to be made. I would let

20:45

you know that if whatever is

20:47

there is unrecoverable or there is

20:49

little that we can understand, the

20:52

UNRS will give us the full

20:54

payout regardless or at least most

20:56

of the payout regardless. So do

20:58

not... Risk anyone's life trying to

21:01

bring something back that is too

21:03

dangerous. Understood. Just learn anything you

21:05

reasonably can learn. Yes ma'am. My

21:07

concern is definitely not the money.

21:10

It is the security. Whatever you

21:12

do, keep the most people alive.

21:14

Understood. The funny thing to say

21:16

of the saying, kill them if

21:19

you have to. But keep them

21:21

alive! She did not say that.

21:23

She said, if you got to

21:25

do something. Anyway, no! You're back

21:28

at the Deep Dot. Everyone ready?

21:30

Yeah. The Deep Dot woes to

21:32

life and... You submerge and are

21:34

sent off from the UES long

21:36

house. As the Deep Dot... travels

21:39

away from the UES long house

21:41

leaving it behind is a large

21:43

shape in the darkness significantly closer

21:45

than the much smaller tiniier in

21:48

this range shape also in the

21:50

darkness. I will give each of

21:52

you your personal agendas. That's one

21:54

hell of an agenda, Adam. Oh,

21:57

right before you leave as well,

21:59

Amanda makes it very clear that

22:01

Cal is in charge. Sure. His

22:03

authority is my authority while you

22:06

are no longer on the ship.

22:08

Thank you, Kevin. So, Jim turns

22:10

to the group, but specifically to

22:12

you, Cal. You want me to

22:15

hit the lights? Yes, ma'am. She

22:17

turns the light on the deep

22:19

dart on, and then... the image

22:21

resolution appears before you. Unsurprising, there

22:24

is a large facility which has

22:26

been built into the rock here

22:28

at the core of Europa. There

22:30

is no insignia or identifying marks

22:33

on the facility which You would

22:35

call it suspicious if it weren't

22:37

for the fact that this place

22:39

is obviously hidden. Yeah, yeah. It

22:42

would be kind of weirder if

22:44

they do have markings on them,

22:46

yeah. Yeah, it would be. There

22:48

are, you can see two entrances.

22:50

These are marked. There is Loading

22:53

Bay A and Loading Bay B.

22:55

You can see Loading Bay A.

22:57

Once, maybe still technically, has a

22:59

submarine attached to it, but something's

23:02

happened. The submarine is connected still

23:04

by the umbilical, but it's come

23:06

away from the station, destroying part

23:08

of that dock with it. You

23:11

don't think you can get the

23:13

deep dot in there, and even

23:15

if you can, you question the

23:17

structural integrity of the loading bay.

23:20

Is there any sign of, from

23:22

what we can see? Was it

23:24

an explosion? Did it look like

23:26

there was debris from an explosion?

23:29

damage was done. You get a

23:31

little closer to have a look.

23:33

You can see as well the

23:35

facility has automated turrets which would

23:38

attack ships as they approach if

23:40

they don't identify themselves or something.

23:42

Thankfully, blissfully the turrets seem to

23:44

be offline. They aren't moving so

23:47

you think they're not powered. You

23:49

approach that submarine and you inspect

23:51

the site there. It's hard to

23:53

tell without getting out some specific

23:56

equipment that you don't have access

23:58

to. But from a cursory... inspection

24:00

it looks like there was an

24:02

explosion okay what's the other loading bay

24:05

there's loading bay B which is clear

24:07

yeah you can access that pretty easily

24:09

you can try to get into loading

24:11

bay a but it'll be a tight

24:13

squeeze yeah and like I said it might

24:15

be flooded all right and it looks

24:17

like this one is off limits here

24:19

I start to think to myself of

24:22

like well maybe The Wi-Fi was

24:24

existent and now it got ripped

24:26

down. Yeah, maybe. Yeah. Um, can

24:28

you bring us around to the

24:30

other entry area, please? Aye, sir.

24:32

She brings the ship around to

24:34

Loding Bay B. You want me to

24:36

make dock? If you see that it is, uh,

24:38

if you see that's available here, then

24:41

yes, I trust your judgment. Looks

24:43

clear. She makes dock. As the

24:45

deep dart surfaces in the submersible

24:47

area of Loding Bay B. the

24:49

light illuminates part but not some

24:52

of the learning bay the lights

24:54

are all out it's very it's

24:56

a large very large space because

24:58

submarines are meant to dock here

25:01

so even the light that the

25:03

deep dot provides is not enough

25:05

to completely illuminate this area you

25:07

can see through the camera that

25:10

it is cluttered. It looks like something

25:12

happened very quickly. There are lots of

25:14

crates, equipment, and bits and pieces that

25:16

would be in any normal loading dock,

25:18

but they're just scattered around like they

25:21

were dropped in a hurry. Does the

25:23

deep dot have comms? It does, yes.

25:25

Can I reach forward and go onto

25:27

the band where my contact is? You

25:30

absolutely can. So it is a text

25:32

only, which is fine. The radio allows

25:34

for that. You can, you don't have

25:36

any sort of heads-up display, do you?

25:39

No. You can jump onto that

25:41

band, absolutely. Nagano is army. This

25:43

is Oski Jarvinen. I am at

25:45

your location. Come in. There's a

25:48

long, quiet period before

25:50

anything happens. Jim turns

25:52

to you all ski

25:55

and says, I put

25:57

up a figure. Ryan

I won't roll, she's stunned. Wait,

27:33

is it over text or did

27:35

you say this out loud? I

27:37

said it out loud. It goes

27:39

out loud, but you can, you

27:41

can do it either typing it

27:43

in or you can say it

27:45

out loud and it translates into

27:47

text. Okay. You will not receive

27:49

a voice back. You will receive

27:52

a text back. I see, okay.

27:54

silence continues because in does nothing.

27:56

You do not receive a reply?

27:58

Because the facilities powered down, you

28:00

think that the internal comms aren't

28:02

allowing the communication right now. Okay.

28:04

Can I get out of the

28:06

top? Sure, yeah. Wait, wait, I've

28:08

got questions. Hello, you know where

28:11

we are? Yeah, it is. He's

28:13

getting out of the salt. I'm

28:15

leaving. You can follow him or

28:17

you can stand down? Yeah. What

28:19

are they paying you? I will

28:21

make this a role, Oski. It's

28:23

going to be a manipulation empathy

28:25

role. No successes, would you like

28:27

to push it? Yeah. Jack Den

28:30

looks at you, I'm getting paid

28:32

5K. Bismarck will double it. I

28:34

am your number one priority. Keep

28:36

me alive. Jack. The marshal looks

28:38

at you. Cow. Are you going

28:40

to say something to him? All

28:42

right. That was the sentence. He

28:44

gives you a slightly reassuring wink

28:46

and then he follows off to

28:49

you asking. Do I see the

28:51

wink? Yeah. I have seen the

28:53

wink. Do you think I am

28:55

an idiot? I'll follow you. I

28:57

ain't hurting him. Oh, of course.

28:59

I wouldn't expect you to. I

29:01

hope that Cal does not give

29:03

you a reason to. We need

29:05

to make it to engineering to

29:07

get combs back online. Aske, last

29:10

I checked I'm in charge. You

29:12

seem to be going a little

29:14

above your station here. I regret

29:16

to inform you, Cal, but the

29:18

UES Longhouse is a Bismarck ship.

29:20

I am in charge. I am.

29:22

By the captain, who is my

29:24

subordinate. The idiot is watching, like

29:26

wide-eyed, grinning. We need to make

29:29

it through engineering. Quick smart. Why?

29:31

So that we can get the

29:33

facility back online. Why? But it's

29:35

not your priority to know. As

29:37

a person in charge of security,

29:39

I need to know what we're

29:41

doing so I can take the

29:43

proper measures to make sure that

29:45

we... are safe as a crew.

29:48

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Something has happened

29:50

to the facility. Oh shit. And

29:52

we need to find out what

29:54

it is. I have a contact

29:56

here. Nagano his army. Once I

29:58

can find them, I can give

30:00

me the 10 for about what

30:02

has happened here. And we can

30:04

decide at that point what to

30:06

do next. But first, we need

30:09

to get to engineering safely. You

30:11

should follow my lead. Because last

30:13

I checked, I am security. If

30:15

you want to get somewhere safely,

30:17

you go with security. You're hired.

30:19

I adjust your head. Lead on

30:21

Cal. The Marshal looks at you,

30:23

Cal. I give a reassuring wink

30:25

after he turns around. Yeah, no

30:28

worries. Cal nods. You don't think...

30:30

I'm gonna be killed. I don't

30:32

like all the winking that's happening

30:34

here. You don't think the Marshal

30:36

will turn on you, but he

30:38

is also following a bigger paycheck

30:40

right now. You don't think the

30:42

two of you have a problem

30:44

yet. He's still friendly to you.

30:47

He's just taking the bigger paycheck,

30:49

that's all. Yep. It's hard to

30:51

get paid when the person's dead.

30:53

Um, yeah. I continue on. Im

30:55

before you leave stops you, Cal.

30:57

She, maybe she waits until the

30:59

two of you are the last

31:01

people in the ship. So Gideon,

31:03

do you also leave? I mean,

31:06

the only thing Gideon would have

31:08

done is when that was happening,

31:10

just like leaned slightly over to

31:12

him and being like, are you

31:14

seeing this shit? Imis too tense

31:16

to respond to you. You notice

31:18

that Im has her hand surptitiously

31:20

on her pistol, looking like she's

31:22

about to back up. Wow, this

31:24

changed immediately. But yeah, after like,

31:27

it's like, oh, you're hired, it's

31:29

like, oh, we're doing this and

31:31

Gideon really wants to get into

31:33

this facility. So she's gonna scramble

31:35

her little butt off the ship.

31:37

When it is just IM and

31:39

you Cal, IM, I got you,

31:41

I got you to the end

31:43

of this, all right? You and

31:46

me, I don't know what's going

31:48

on with the Marshal, but you

31:50

and me and the captain, we're

31:52

on the same team. From my

31:54

understanding, that is correct. Do you

31:56

want me to come with or

31:58

do you want me to stay

32:00

on the deep dot? Christ's sense

32:02

motive, technically, of him just to

32:05

make sure that she is not

32:07

just... No role required. She and

32:09

the captain are like this. They

32:11

argue all the fucking time, but

32:13

they fucking love each other. And

32:15

Amanda made you in charge. Im

32:17

trusts Amanda. completely. And so if

32:19

Amanda made you in charge, M

32:21

considers you in charge. Fantastic. M.

32:24

Can you do a quick message

32:26

to the captain to inform her

32:28

of what's going on and then

32:30

trail us? Okay, I'll be at

32:32

a hefty distance though, letting you

32:34

know because I need to disembark

32:36

to the shielding won't let me

32:38

contact her from in here. So

32:40

I have to leave, come back.

32:42

Here's the deal. Go back to

32:45

the ship. Tell the captain what

32:47

happened. I will send a signal.

32:49

Will you be able to send

32:51

it to me from inside the

32:53

facility? What's the signal that would

32:55

not be calm checky? Like, I

32:57

know a flare technically wouldn't work

32:59

because you can't see. But is

33:01

there any type of thing that

33:04

I can do at the location

33:06

that would be a good enough

33:08

signal that the ship could see?

33:10

Well surely once we get the

33:12

facility back online, you could send

33:14

messages more easily. See it in

33:16

Captain Captain, come on, we need

33:18

to go. I would say return

33:20

to the ship, let the captain

33:23

know what's happening, and be prepared

33:25

for us to dock back. All

33:27

right, I'll go let the captain

33:29

know what's happening, and then I

33:31

will come, she gives you a

33:33

very serious look, I will come

33:35

right the captain, I will come,

33:37

she gives you a very serious

33:39

look, I will come right the

33:42

fuck back, and I will come,

33:44
