Infestation

Attention all personnel.

Air processing plant online

in ten seconds.

One at a time, one at a time,

yes, yes, you!

Commander Freeman,

isn't it true that the fight against

terrorism is being lost?

That is an untrue statement, Colin -

'Bomb blast kills 30',

The Mayors wife hurt in the blast,

these statistics are not false.

Now you're just scare mongering

and if I may interject:

Yes, Subtropolis is in a small state

of emergency

and I must stress that Colin:

A small state of emergency.

There is no way this minority group who

are seeking their own ends are going

to be allowed to win.

They cannot not win, they must not win.

Commander Freeman.

What about demands, what do they want?

Chaos and Anarchy.

It's that simple?

It's that simple!

Let me tell you something about

the mentality of these kind of people,

they're rats.

And we know how to deal with rats.

What about the security forces?

Some people feel they're

not doing enough...

Let me tell you this.

The security forces of Subtropolis are

the best defence we have.

I'm sure you'll find that

they will make this situation something

of a picnic -

You're probably getting this

in the morning, which means that

right now you look and feel like sh*t

having partied hard without me.

But you probably didn't even notice

I was missing.

Anyway you've got the ladies

to yourself for now mate

'cos FREEMAN's sending me on a mission.

He hasn't given me much details

so it means its pretty big.

So take care of yourself.

See you later mate.

Incoming call.

Good party last night, LOKI?

Oh yeah, but not nearly long enough.

And what was her name?

Meet me on deck.

We should have been at the

air processing plant ten minutes ago.

You should've been there SASH.

You missed a good one.

And feel like you look, no thanks.

I've better things to do with my nights

You still not sleeping?

No

That's why you should've come! -

Plus there were loads of single guys.

It was a party in the mechanics sector!

What's wrong with mechanics?

Come on!

You've got five minutes

to plant the explosives.

Well go on!

You can't remember this girl at all?

Oh I remember her fine,

she had the best legs I've ever seen

in the mechanics sector.

It's just her name escapes me,

her name...

So its love then?

Maybe, Sash maybe.

Drink your coffee

It's still hot.

Are we really going to go through

with this?

We just want FREEMAN to come clean.

Susie, Janie, Jenny, Penny,

Terri, Kelly.

SASH 342, LOKI 3116.

KERRY!

FREEMAN?

Yes that's her.

Kerry FREEMAN?

Commander FREEMAN's daughter?

Access approve

Lex. I've got trouble here.

What is it Carter?

I've got two Security snooping around.

Where is everybody?

What should I do?

Sh*t!

What should I do Lex?

Can you get a clear shot?

Clear as a baby's conscience.

Take them out!

Son of a b*tch.

Sash, look out.

Cover me!

Go Go GO!

Check the service section. Watch out!

Get him!

SASH where are you?

Sh*t!

Halt! Stay where you are!

Freeze b*tch!

Stay down d*ckhead

Dark tunnel,

yeah she'd go into a dark tunnel.

We have a pursuit in progress sir.

Sector fourteen.

On screen.

Go to Red Alert

Who have we got up there?

Runner 21... Sir, it's LOKI.

Damn.

Get him on the radio now.

Yes sir.

Runner 21 respond.

Move it!

LOKI are you there?

You're losing the suspect LOKI

Yeah thanks for the update!

The suspect heading for the tunnel

he can't follow them in there.

You're losing them.

Do not let suspect enter

the tunnel systems LOKI.

Repeat suspect must

not escape sector A14.

Where did she go?

Ah there she is!

Hey! Remember me?

The way I figure, you owe me a coffee.

And a bagel!

LOKI what are you doing up there?

Having a bad day!

I've got a major headache,

I've lost my coffee and to top

it all off I was at a great party

and I was just about to have sex

with the commander's daughter.

Say that again LOKI, say that again.

I was just asking what's next with

the commander's orders.

Enough is enough, order him to shoot.

- Sir?

- DO IT!

Take the suspect down LOKI.

Are you mental control?

This is an order from command.

At what cost?

This is FREEMAN giving you

a direct order pilot.

Come on I can take her

in the service tunnels

Sh*t.

Fire on the suspect

This is a bad call control

Move!

Bring her down

No!

Sh*t

Sir? We're getting reports of a crash.

Several civilian craft involved.

Body count thirteen and rising.

Incoming Calling.

From Commander T.K. FREEMAN.

Major SASH? ...Rebecca, are you awake?

Would you be calling this early

if I wasn't?

Probably not.

So what's the assignment?

What? No inane chatter,

no "how have you been"?

You've already said this isn't social,

so just cut the pleasantries.

I'm glad to see you haven't lost

your charm at this early hour.

Since you're so keen to find out

I'll cut to the chase.

We've recently lost

a reconnaissance team

who have been doing some

very important work.

Search and Rescue? Isn't that

a little below my station?

What is it, a hostage situation?

Unlikely. Thing is SASH,

they weren't lost in the tunnels.

I only wish they were.

They disappeared Topside.

Topside?

I know it may be difficult

for you to understand, SASH.

But we've been scouting

the outside for a little while now...

I'm not even suppose

to talk about this,

but you need to know...

We've been collecting samples,

looking for clues;

trying to see if we can get close

to finding out what went wrong.

Maybe make our world liveable again.

But, the nature

of the environment means

these visits are dangerously short.

Our scientist have developed a serum

that can hold the virus at bay for

a while, but it's no cure.

It allows the human body

to be exposed

in the current conditions

for no more than 48hrs.

And it's been more than 48hrs

and the team hasn't returned!

Bingo.

Plus, their additional life support

packs will have been drained by now.

So you want to send me

on some crackpot mission

to the virus-infected surface to look

for some dead people, what for?

Because we're still getting activity

readings on their personal locators.

SASH, they're still moving!

They're moving! You're saying

they're still alive?!

That's what we need to find out.

Let me just get my head round this -

this team could they have adapted

to the atmosphere up there?

Not a chance.

It's too severe, and without the serum

the air will kill you in seconds...

we're not predicting a good resolution

on this one.

That's a comforting thought.

Do I have a choice in any of this?

Since you ask. Not really.

But I did hope you would

have wanted this job.

I of all people know

how much you've wanted to see

the Earth from the outside again -

and by the look of you,

you could use a little sun.

Why is it the higher up the chain of

command you go the worse the jokes get!

It's an earned privilege.

SASH, we have no time on this one.

I know how difficult it's been

for you since LOKI quit,

we were sorry to lose him too.
