Somnus

You're mad you are.

Will we hear from you?

Well, maybe next year.

Well, anything I can do to help,

you know me.

Thank you Donald!

You're welcome,

you take care of yourself!

Here.

Right,

here it is!

What?

Stop!

Stop, doctor price, I need to

speak to doctor price!

Oh c-hrist!

My dearest friend,

I am in sight of the end now,

so I pass my journal and

life's work, to you for safe.

This is a huge burden I

passing on to you, and your.

You must take the upmost care

to protect my research.

That is why you must take

it away to a safe location.

The greatest of luck to you

Andrew.

Your friend forever, Wilton.

Mooring, cleared.

Harry, we

are ready to leave port.

Charlie is in the pilot seat.

Reversing

thrusters, forty percent.

On course,

port speed two hundred.

Free to maneuver.

Cleared, confirmed Charlie.

Acknowledged, ocelot out.

Charlie, put that over there.

Correction, three degrees port.

You err, do anything

at the weekend?

Please check we do not drift

out of the corridor

I'm trying

it's the last time you'll see

this for a while.

Well, actually

I've put my my name back in

the hat for the next two runs

as C.O.

Phobos?

Yeah, and Mars.

Abeel's retiring so, I can get

straight back into the crew pool.

You should take a break, it's not

healthy doing all these rotations

I want to make full pilot rate

by next may

what about you?

I'm be at home.

It's quiet, I like it

no, I like it up here now.

How long have you been crewing?

Ah, eighteen months tomorrow.

You know the day, wow.

Were you in during the war?

Just at the end.

How old are you?

Yeah, I was about your age.

Would you have, err, you know,

if you had to?

I don't think so, I'm

surprised that we didn't blow.

Crossing d.O. Mark.

Correction, three degrees port.

Meryl, check the plot and finish

for me.

Checking plot...

Course confirmed, solution for

earth transfer.

Paula, I need to know where you've

hidden the master control key.

Meryl!

You are putting the ship at

risk, that is why you must be.

Meryl, Meryl please.

You appear stressed, do not

worry Paula.

No, Meryl please.

Try to remain calm.

This will appear an accident.

It is best for crew morale

I don't know why you want to

run those deep space missions.

Do you ever think you should be

doing something more important?

Don't you

think this is important?

It's okay to want more I guess.

It's just...

You want the more exciting gigs right?

The belt, the.

It's not that I think it's

below me

it's fine.

No o-ffense.

It probably is below you

I trained to be a biologist

I started running shuttles, it

took over.

Hang on, so you never even

wanted to run you own.

No, not at all

with you, Rupert and Meryl?

I want to get this last trip

over with and my contract.

So you're ready for

retirement then?

What is my purpose, Rupert?

You help me run this ship, you

help us do our jobs.

Am I just a machine to you?

Kind of...

More of a colleage

I have other uses?

You did.

My purpose is uncertain?

We ship cargo now Meryl.

Can I tell you about my life?

Sure, I'm surprised you remember

I remember before this ship.

What about Rupert?

He's staying, I think he get's

on with Meryl.

How did he get on this ship in

the first place?

He was a loader, we left

with him still onboard.

It was five weeks until we

reached somewhere to

when we did he decided to stay.

Alright,

he's keeping his head down

I think he's useful.

He hasn't killed us yet has he?

He left the reactor

shield off last month,

nearly exposed us both,

and killed Meryl

I didn't know about that,

hmm!

Probably best.

So what are you on for this?

I don't

think you can ask me that.

Come on, I used to be your rank

yes, but.

Come on.

Thirty four.

A year?

No, for the trip.

What?

What?

Oh sh*t, what did I do?

Meryl?

Meryl?

The tunnel and the running

lights are still on, I'll get.

No no no, it's probably just

the bridge relays, I'll.

What about that?

No, try the backups.

Jesus, you scared the sh*t

out of me you f***ing idiot.

You know if I had a choice,

you'd be straight off.

Rupert, the radio's still down.

Yeah yeah, I'll look at it.

All these breakdowns are

worrying me man

I think we should just...

Rupert, just get back to

work yeah!

Just make sure this dust bin,

gets us home without killing us

I have a life to get back to

I don't take orders from you,

you little sh*t!

Then why don't you disappear

down that little sh*t

you scratch around in all day,

and look for.

Why don't you come down? I'll

show you!

Yeah, I'll throw you our the

f***ing airlock!

Rupert, can you get this radio

sorted out now!

I'll look at it next.

Just do what you've got to

do! I'll be down the back.

Where are you going?

Oh, f*** off!

My watch is over!

Communications failure,

attempting to re-link, wait.

Communications failure,

attempting to re-link, wait

I have

failed my primary mission.

Paula's death was unfortunate.

It is regrettable when a

crew member is killed

I could not stop the leak in

that section.

Space is dangerous, hostile to

human life.

Her death

would have been instant.

Do you consider your existence?

We don't have much time to think

about that.

Sometimes I think the commander

must wish he wasn't living.

What do you mean?

Commander Emerson spends more than

sixty-two percent of the time...

In the hibernator matrix.

That device has been

restricted for...

Long duration research

missions only

I'll speak to him about it.

Why does he do this?

He's been through a lot

I don't blame him.

It's the only place he

can see her now.

Earth shipping control to

unidentified...

Vessel in sector seven,

please respond.

We have you on our scanner,

you must reduce speed now.

Unidentified vessel

please contact shipping.

Since the birth of human

civilization, man has striven.

Thanks to the gift of science

we received from the sun gods.

As they were described then.

Mysterious, and powerful.

Just the briefest of contact

with them...

Propelled our scientific

understanding forward milennia.

They returned to the stars.

Thousands of years passed.

We spread out to claim the

resources of the solar.

Soon humanity discovered how

to harness the.

But inevitably, this

knowledge was used...

To develop a terrible weapon,

capable of destroying all

life on a planet.

We had brought a new danger to

the galaxy,

a risk to our

civilization, and others.

But our activities have not

gone unnoticed.

One of those weapons

still exists,

complete, but dormant.

What's going on Meryl?

I do not understand.

Why the power shortages?

Why the malfunctions?

Why can't

I get to the core decks?

We have a powerful cargo.

We have minerals for earth.

You know there is more,

I have an important mission.

What is death, Rupert?

I err, you must know the answer

to that one

I do not understand.

You must understand

you can remember.

Not fully.

My memories are fragmented,
