His room has been secured?

Boone! Good of you to come.

Really looking forward to this.

Kinda like watching Taelon home movies.

Gratitude fills me as look out and
see so many eminent astronomers.

I thank you that I have been allowed to
share with you the jewel that is Taelon.

Our world resides near the core
of a star system which we call ...

The four moons of our world

have been made inhabitable and have been
home to most of my fellows for almost...

Lili, gas!

Da'an, this way!

Put the gun down!

Major MacIntire?

Johnson! No.

We agreed no casualties.

This way. Please.

Three years ago they came

forever altering the future of humanity.

Subtitled by Axarion

7 minutes since the attack.

Secure all access points,
40k radius from the planetarium.

Lili, Lili, come on.

What happened?

Da'an's gone.

Contact the air command,

confirm satellite read of
possible air evacuation.

Lock down this facility and
find the source of the gas.

Nobody leaves until I say so!

What have you got?

Breathing tubes surgically implanted.

Haven't seen anything like
this since the SI War.

This guy's covert operation special forces,
navy seals.

Whoever he is he's working
for Jonathan Doors.

We cannot exclude any possibilities,
not yet.

We need to compose the suspects.

I remain mystified as to
the meaning to your actions.

You wish my confusion to endure?

You speak when spoken to!

Johnson, observe the protocol.

No communication.

Your silence communicates
as clearly as speech, Major.

It conveys your desire to instill fear

and dependency within your captive.

Tell me where my men are being held?

I asked you a question.

I speak as freely as my bonds allow.

I thank you.

I remain curious.

With my abduction you have
violated the sanctity of your laws.

Yet you make no attempt to conceal yourself.

The whole world is watching us.

As I get my men back,

everyone will know who abducted you.

There's no point hiding who I am.

I understand this.

Yet I remain mystified
by your use of violence

to attain access to your targets.

You asked for volunteers,

my best men,

to prepare them for interdimensional flight.

Humans who could endure the
phenomenon of bending time and space.

And have your compatriots
not coveted this honor?

You guaranteed there would be no danger!

And the military believed your lies!

So that now they try to cover it up for you,

denying there ever was
an experimental program!

I cannot fathom your anger.

This truce conceals no falsehood.

Humans confront minimal
risks in these procedures.

Minimal?!

Is that minimal?

Police and media speculation
has focused on Jonathan Doors,

the former CEO of Doors International,

as the leading suspect
that responsible for...

There's no end to media's
morbid speculation.

Da'an's life is nothing more
than a sideshow to them!

What did the final analysis
of the gas revealed?

You were informed of that, sir.

Neurocordesine,

officially deleted O2.

- Military issue is assumed.
- Assumed?!

Confirm it, trace it.

And where is Boone?!

We have no idea how a
Companion can be killed

or even if they can be.

The outrage committed against
the American Companion is import.

But the mystery of it...

They're grieving as if
they've lost their messiah.

And if Da'an should be actually murdered

backlash will sweep us all away.

These idiots who kidnapped him

put in danger everything I've worked
to put in place! Who are they?

They're soldiers, special forces.

Sandoval identified their leader.

Major Raymond MacIntire.

Never heard of him.

MacIntire led the raid against
the Shanghai nuclear facility.

During SI War.

He's a much decorated officer.

Doesn't fit the profile of a terrorist.

So why would a carrier soldier
suddenly kidnap a Companion?

Well, the Taelons must've done something
horrific to force to such an extreme.

Maybe. Or maybe the whole
abduction is a ruse,

a ploy to regain the public
sympathy I've cost them,

to justify their security crackdown.

Sandoval or I would be involved
if the abduction was staged.

The Synod would never entrust
anyone else with that.

You really think you're beginning
to understand these creatures?

You've become quite an
amateur to your Da'an.

Well now just as well,
he's the priority here.

Get him back. Alive.

And the soldiers who took him?

Do what you have to do.

These are anticompanion sympathizers.

They're exactly the kind of people we need
if we are to become an effective force!

Look how skillfully they took Da'an!

We have to survive if we're going to grow.

And what they've done
endangers that survival.

So we just sacrifice our own for the sake
of a Taelon, is that what you're saying?

I am aware of the ironies.

This is not what I signed on for.

What's it worth, neither did I.

But Da'an must live.

So we can too.

What have you got?

Nothing.

A headache.

As far as I can tell

it has no brain.

No lobes, no cortex.

There's energy conscience, but...

the mind-body relationship is bizarre.

For all I know every cell in
its body could be intelligent.

Would drugs work on him?

Make him confess where
the men are being held?

I don't know what can I do.

- It's bad again?
- Oh, no.

Well it won't be long now.

Our demands were delivered.

And if they won't negotiate for him?

They will.
He's one of their kind, they want him back.

I can make him talk.

Make him tell us where
the others are being held.

I can do to him what the did to me!

We're not here for your personal vendetta.

Get it under control.

I have been asked to speak to you by my host

to deliver this demand.

Five American soldiers

have been the subjects of experiments

involving Companion technologies.

They're being held against their will
by agents of their own government.

When they have been released

I too will attain freedom.

But if not...

They judge me accordingly.

We received this video at 16:00.

All the soldiers named are
listed as dead by the military.

It's a standard covering
in covert operations.

This is Major Raymond MacIntire,
the missing soldiers' officer.

Five weeks ago he went
AWOL with four of his men

and a storage of weapons,
including nerve gas

and a helicopter gunship.

Can you suggest a way in which
we should respond to this threat?

Assuming their men are still
alive we propose an exchange.

The only imperative is to
ensure Da'an's protection.

The only imperative concerns the
welfare of our collective sentience,

not the survival of an individual.

We cannot negotiate in the
matter that you propose.

But Quo'on, you must let me fulfill
my imperative to protect Da'an.

It appears Da'an has chosen well.

Your devotion is exceptional.

Da'an's life is at risk.

Giving up these soldiers
is noting compared to that.

But your Companion does
not fear death as you do.

If it serves us,
he will not hesitate to embrace it.

So it's true?

They're not willing to
negotiate for Da'an's life?

Why? This doesn't make any sense!

It does to the Taelon Synod.

MacIntire wants ransom Da'an for those men,

the Taelons see that as a
major threat to existence here.

What did they do to those soldiers that they're
willing to sacrifice Da'an to keep them hidden?

I don't know.
Except they don't see it as a sacrifice.

Taelons don't view death the way we do.
They're not afraid of it,

especially death of an individual.

I don't believe that. Everything that
lives has an instinctual fear of dying.

Those soldiers are gonna die
if Sandoval gets to them first.

I know. Look...

Sandoval wants to go the army base and
interrogate the soldiers' families for leads.

We have to get to Da'an during that window.

Than assign my to fly the shuttle.

I can keep him away as long as you want.

Ok.

Thousands have gathered at the historic
Cathedral, and the others across the nation

to pray for the American Companion.

In my experience nothing
has moved us like this

since the Iranian hostage
crisis of the 1970s.

It a tribute to the force
of Da'an's character

that he's won the hearts
of the American people

in such a short time with us.

He's become a true Companion to the nation.

I need to talk to him.

They haven't responded to ransom demand.

They're not gonna negotiate for you,
are they?

I do not anticipate so.

The whole world's praying for you
like you're some kinda savior.

- But not you.
- No, I pray.

But my prayers are that they
let me have a go at you.

Curious.

Curious?

How?

Like something on a lab slide?

Here! Is this curious?!

That my own body isn't mine?!

That it's more Taelon than human?!

This speaks of a profound wrong.

The pain that I witness moves me.

You caused my pain!

I was with the others.

It was your machines they used on us,
your technology!

- But not my wish.
- You're lying!

They took my mind and my body apart.

Remade me so I barely know what I am.

So now...

All I wanna do

is strike back at you.

I understand.

Yet I do not believe that you will.

I do not see this in you.

Tell me...

Your marking

"Live Free or Die"

Do you truly believe this?

That death offers a state more desirable

than captivity?

Inside...

I'm a captive now.

So too am I.

We must speak of this marking again.

It tells of a paradox I do find puzzling.

Headache?

Commander Boone is something
of a workplace democrat.

I'm not.

Your ear is bleeding.

But if not, they judge me accordingly.

Ok, they're good.

They've soundproofed the
room that this was taped in.

No background noise whatsoever, but...

See what's in the eye of the beholder.

A mere image of the gentlemen
recording your employer.

Disappointing.
Doesn't give me anything I don't know.

What's in the other eye?

Just more disappointment?

Rewind, please.

Little more.

There.

Is there anything reflected blushes blue?

Nada.

Can you enhance this?

More.

A thermometer.

No, it's a regulator used
in cold storage facilities.

Looks like this one hasn't been
used for quite a while, huh?

Run a search.

Get up. Get up!

Boone here.

The Synod has sensed a change
in welfare of your Companion.

Da'an's been in touch with you?

Not in a way that you can comprehend.

We experience a transformation
in the life force of Da'an.

I don't understand.

His body begins to fade.
He has chosen to end his confinement.

He's willing himself to die?

He honors the Collective.

In doing so he frustrates the
desires of our antagonists.

He will be transfigured,
freed from the restrains of matter.

How long will Da'an live?

Not long.

Take comfort in our conviction that
he passage of a single conscience

offers no cause for sorrow.

Agent Sandoval?

Agent Sandoval, respond, please.

We need to talk.

Data stream off.

Well done, Mr. Boone.

Can you walk?

I do not believe I am able.

You gotta try.
Come on, I'll help you. Get up.

Come on, we can make it.

I fear that we cannot.

Tell me how you found us.

What important is I did.
Your position's compromised.

And help's on the way, isn't it?

- More like the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
- Yet you came here alone?

I don't want this to end in bloodshed.

The Companions?

They won't negotiate for him. All you end
up doing is turning him into a murder.

That is of no consequence to me!

The only thing I need form that alien
is the location of my missing men.

If he hasn't told you that by now,
he either doesn't know or he won't.

But haven't really begun
to persuade him yet.

If you're gonna do that call it by its name.

Pain, dehumanizing demeaning pain.

Didn't you see enough of that in the SI War,
Major?

I sure did.

Show him what they did to you, Captain.

He should know what it is he's working for.

Show him!

The Companions wanted volunteers to be
trained in interdimensional space flight.

Johnson escaped in transit
after they did that to him.

So don't you preach at me, Commander.

This is the world we live in now!

It's 1492,

the conquest of the New
World all over again!

Only this time

we are the savages.

Da'an's willing himself to die.

But...

You must know that by now.

If he moves, shoot him.

Get up.

MacIntire's father lives in Saint Paul.
You wanna question him there?

Do you dwell upon memories
of your Companion?

Does it give you pleasure to do so?

No.

No pleasure.

Sorrow does not serve your Companion.

The martyrdom of Da'an
must not be squandered.

Public opinion should be galvanized
in support of further initiatives.

Contact Commander Boone. The Synod awaits.

Boone, William.

Commander Boone's global is not functioning.

Your Commander would
not be willingly silent.

He may have found the
Companion's kidnappers.

Search his last known coordinates.

Your own kind wouldn't negotiate for you.

They're forcing me to take the
information that I need from you.

You seem uneasy, Major.

Does the concept that you call
conscience cause you this distress?

Don't you talk to me about conscience!

The lives of my men are on your conscience!

You tell me where they are?!

Look at him MacIntire.
He can't tell you anything if he dies.

Get him outta here!

What's happening to him?

I said get him out!

Da'an, if you know the whereabouts of
these soldiers we can end this right now.

Even if I could answer you, my fellow
Companions do not desire that I do so.

They have not bargained for my release.

And I must acquiesce to their will.

Nobody will benefit from your death.

Human or Taelon.

Do not grieve for me, Boone.

In time we must all seek to
evolve beyond the constrains

imposed by matter.

Shall we continue, Major?

Secure the area.

Make sure the van's clean.
Bring them in for interrogation.

We have visitors.

Secure the area!

Secure!

I take it you know who I am, Major.

I need to talk to you and to my associate

William Boone.

Agent Sandoval?

Agent Sandoval, respond, please.

We need to talk.

Captain, take me to Boone's office.

That transmission was sent two hours ago.
The trail's cold.

Take me to Boone's office, now.

Gentlemen, I'd like to resolve our impasse.

As you see we share the same
concerns about the Taelons.

I don't give a damn about your
little cloak and dagger intrigue.

Five men that's the only reason we did this.

And would you like to see them?

Computer,

display the last five commands
in chronological order.

I'll keep trying to reach
Boone on the global link.

Next.

Next.

Next.

This is what they used to call the Farm.

They closed it down after we
exposed it as a holding tank

for Taelon failures from
experiments gone awry.

If it's shut down how this is gonna help?

Watch.

I kept the place under
surveillance for weeks.

This was taken on the night of October 12th.

That's Wells.

Where were they taken?

I don't know.

But I do have the resources to find out.

If you don't bury them and us
by killing the Companion first.

So, do we have a deal, Major?

You're escaping, aren't you?

From your body?

I envy your freedom.

Ready the shuttle, Captain.
I believe I found Da'an.

You're not afraid of dying?

We have been taught

not to dread this passage.

But fear has a presence, yes.

Can I trust him to help me find my men?

You can.

We're warriors, Commander.
We've seen too much carnage.

But a billionaire freedom fighter?
What the hell's he seen?

He risked a lot to come to you.

He's your best hope.

All I want is to get my men back.

They are my responsibility!

I'm not interested in some crusade!

I lost someone to this.

And for a long time that's all I saw.

I had to learn to refocus
on what ultimately matters:

"Why are the Taelons here?"

You and Doors figure out the
way to return the captive.

Give me your hand.

Give it to me, please.

Major!

Major!

They've found us.

Everyone on the roof! Now!

- Go with them, Jonathan!
- No!

It's the only way.

Get to the chopper! Come on! Let's go!

Johnson, we're moving out!
We have to go now!

It's all right, go. I'll stay with him. Go!

Let's go, we gotta move!

Stairwell!

Let's go!

Da'an!

Johnson! Lucas, come on!

They're too close!

We can make it!

I can't... No more...

I want release.

Lucas!

Don't!

He's gone, Boone.

If he can will himself to die,
he can will himself to live.

We've been asked not to grieve.

I can't know whether this death of
yours is a blessing or a curse...

Something beyond all of that.

But I know what your life is here
and you must not let that end.

You

are a part of a consciousness
so different form me.

A noble to me.

But you're a part of us now too as...

as Da'an.

As an individual.

You're the bridge between our worlds.

Come to us.

Come to this life.

I have known the void.

Your species has long dreamed of new worlds,

to go beyond all frontiers

and to embrace the dangers intrinsic

to any true discovery.

My hope

is that humans may one day share with us

the jewel of Taelon.

To journey beyond time and space,

I assure you,
the experience abides no rival.

Save that of the passage

which we must all one day share.

The journey

from the death of life

to the life of death.
