Best we can figure, it washed up
on the beach an hour ago.

Came in with the high tide.

A dog walker spotted it.

Said it was already dead.

He.

-What?
-He's a male.

Part of a pod that migrate
to Vancouver Island every year.

Haven't seen him since last season.

Wind direction is north.

North westerly...

He's not been dead more
than two, three hours.

-That would put him about...
-Murray Cove.

Let's see what they have to say.

Can you cordon this off?

Someone from the Institute
will cover him.

You think they're bite marks?

What's gonna bite an orca?

-Leon.
-How are you, Kit?

-Jack.
-Kit.

-It's been a while.
-Too long.

Kit, did you hear anything
about the orca

that washed up
on the beach this morning?

Finish up for me,
I'll be back in a minute.

I'll show you something.

You're saying an orca did this?

Spoke to the guys, it happened
early hours this morning.

Swam close to the boat
a couple times.

They thought it was curious,
until it started to get aggressive.

They tried to push it aside
but it kept coming,

smashing into the side of the boat,
acting all crazy.

A whale that big
and a boat this size?

They had no choice but to fight back

with bill-hooks, blades,
anything that came to hand.

No choice?

You really think
they'd fight an orca for a few fish?

Catches are dropping off.

Put an animal between a man
and the object of his attention,

you'd be surprised what he'll do.

Nobody around here
would wanna see an orca hurt.

If the guys say it attacked,

then it did.

I gotta get back.

-See you around, Leon
-See you.

-How's the Rock?
-Full of mice.

-It's only for a few weeks.
-And it's freezing.

How's Professor Lehman?

Good mood, bad mood?

Depends who she's talking to.

Probably better that
she doesn't talk to me.

Which is why I'm calling, not her.

-So what's up?
-She revised the seabed section

she wants mapped,
I'll send you the new specs.

Okay.

What?

She wants readings with the AUV

running at 25 meters
above the seafloor,

before it runs at 10.

Rahim, that's
hundreds of kilometres.

-I know.
-I'll be stuck here all summer.

I know.

Why do I have to start at 25 meters?

So you don't run the AUV aground.

-Like you did...
-Last time, I know.

So no shortcuts, okay?

Charlie!

-We missed you last night.
-Last night?

I have a very sloppy text
from you at five this morning.

Did you even go to bed?

I can sleep on the flight.

Anything you need?

Where do I start?

If you think of anything,
let me know.

Something strange is happening.
I've got to go.

Okay.

Shit.

Thanks for getting back to me.

No, I'm looking at the effect of
seismic surveys on marine animals.

And I read your report on
geological studies

and oil exploration.

Yes, I'm from the World
Oceanographic Commission.

Would be wonderful if you could
schedule a proper interview.

Well, I'm based in Canada
for another month.

Yeah, a video call would work.

It's Alicia Delaware.

Yes, like the state.

At w-o-c-dot-org.

I appreciate it. Talk to you then.

I heard about the orca.

First whale of the season
and it washes up dead?

Yeah.

What do you think is going on?

-They've been late before.
-Not this late.

Sorry, you caught be at a bad time.

Okay. Sorry.

I'll catch you later.

There's never a guarantee
but we can offer a half-price trip

to anyone who wants to
try their luck again tomorrow.

-Hey, what's his name?
-Brian.

I'm sorry Brian's friends
didn't show up today.

Sometimes they're a little shy.

Maybe the whales
will show up tomorrow.

Can we go?

-Thank you.
-Thanks.

-Thanks.
-Thanks.

Black, two sugars.

-Lemon, no ice.
-Thanks.

Another group's bailed.
It's the fourth time this week.

If it goes on for much longer,

you might have to sell the boat.

I'll have to take a rain check
on our trip.

I can't be spending money
I don't have right now.

If you need help
to get you through...

-On what you make?
-I have savings.

That's why they're called savings.
You save them.

You gave me a job in college
when I was about to drop out.

My dad did. And you worked for it.
It wasn't a loan.

You can pay me back

when you publish your first book.

Honestly, I appreciate it.

But I can't take a loan.

Not if I don't know
when I can pay it back.

Okay.

You know the talks I give at the
Institute on whale songs?

-What about it?
-I'll give it here.

At the Whale Station. A few evenings
a week through the season.

-You can keep the take.
-Thanks, Leon.

If it goes to hell, we could always
use another pilot at the Institute.

I'm not that desperate.

Charlie!

Welcome to the Rock!

-How long can you stay?
-We can't!

We have to get to the Juno and
chopper back to base by tonight.

Can you guys help me?

Nice to see you too, Tomas.

-What happened?
-No idea.

Not sure, it lost propulsion.
I took it and brought it back.

The insulation seems to be melted.

-Did you check it before launch?
-Of course.

No loose wires here.

I know how to do
an AUV pre-check, Tomas.

Then how do you explain this?

I can't.

Told you, it just lost propulsion.

You sure you didn't do it?

-What is he saying?
-That's she covering her ass.

-Just leave the part, I'll do it.
-I'll do it, yeah?

If you break another,
my ass is on the line.

So, when do you sail?

Tomorrow, from Húsavík.

It'll be good to get out of the lab.

Spend some time in the field.

It'll be great.

I wish you were coming.

And miss all this?

Work is important, you know?

The data AUVs collect is important,

operating them is a job
for a first year student.

We both know why I'm here.

I'll do the job, stick to the rules
and all will be forgiven.

Until next time.

Hi.

-A whiskey.
-We have a lot of that.

Any one in particular?

A good one.

Can't go wrong with a Macnally.

Sure.

Make it two, Iona.

So what did you do then?

-Sorry?
-The guy here last summer,

up at the station...

Stefan?

-That's the one.
-What about him?

He told me back in Germany
he started a fire.

Aye, almost burnt the lab down.

I didn't start a fire,
if that's what you're asking.

So what was it then?

I like doing things my own way.

How does that go down
with your bosses?

Faculty adviser.

Not well...

So when you're not
getting up their noses,

-what do you do?
-Trying to finish my PhD.

And?

I don't want to bore you.

Try me.

Monitoring tidal fluctuation
and other stressors on the ecosystem

like overfishing, water pollution...

Overfishing?

That's a controversial term
around here.

Well, stocks are
on the edge of collapse,

I'd call that overfishing,
wouldn't you?

Or men trying to feed
their families.

Not if the fish run out.

So what do you do?

I'm a fisherman.

Of course you are.

Douglas McKinnon.

-And that's Iona.
-Hi.

-Charlie Wagner.
-If you ever want any fresh fish,

-I go by the station most mornings.
-I don't eat fish.

Aye, course you don't.

I'm not usually so abrasive.
Not on first meeting anyway.

Thanks for the warning.

So, drinks on me. Iona?

Well, thank you very much.

-You can come again.
-Aye, she can.

I guess there's a first
for everything.

I usually do the ducking out.

This must be new for you.

I'm a big boy, I can handle it.

If you pull the door,
it locks on the inside

and there's coffee over there,
if you want.

Believe it or not,

I was going to
invite you to breakfast.

I'm not a breakfast person.

Clearly.

I need to launch
some equipment, so...

-Won't take long.
-There's a storm blowing in.

-It could be dangerous out there.
-I'll be back in no time.

Anything I can say
to persuade you?

Thought as much.

-What are you doing?
-Coming with you.

-I know what I'm doing.
-I don't doubt that.

But even I wouldn't
go out there on my own.

-Not even going to shower?
-Would you wait for me?

-No.
-There you go then.

Alright, on three. One, two, three.

-Okay.
-Good.

Hey, do you see that?

What the hell is that?

Pass me that hook.

Thank you.

Do you have a lighter?

Thank you.

Jeez!

It's methane hydrate.

Fire ice.

Dead algae sink

and get buried in the seabed.

And when they break apart,

they release methane
which then freezes.

Sometimes pieces break free
and float at the surface.

Looks like a hell of a lot.

More than just a few pieces.

Nice.

You've got a few minutes,
just setting up the call.

Hi, guys!

Charlie, we got the footage.

I have a very important
question for you.

Who's the dude on the boat?

-His name is Douglas.
-We have a name!

He's a friend, just a friend.

-Now will you all kindly fuck off?
-She's here.

Let's get started.

And this was limited to this spot?

I'll go back out and check
a few other areas,

see how widespread it is.

How deep is the water there?

About 800 meters.

But I checked the tidal flow,
temperature and water pressure

and I'm pretty sure the hydrates
would've broken free

of the seabed at a depth
of 600 meters.

Put the ADCP in
downward-looking mode on the AUV

to measure the currents.

See if you can confirm the location.

-Will do.
-Send me the data.

Without my having to remind you.

-Of course.
-Let's schedule another call

for the end of the week.

Jess, Tomas, can you stay on?

-I'll sign off...
-No, hold on.

Who's the man on the boat?

He was helping me out.

The seas can get
pretty fierce around here.

Next time you ask me.

In the event of an accident,
there are liability issues.

Insurance issues for non-employees.

I'm so sorry, I should have checked.

I've no problem with you asking
for someone's help.

But when you go out again,

I expect everyone on board
to be wearing life jackets.

You know the rules
and I expect you to follow them.

It won't happen again.

Looks like you've come
a long way for nothing.

I was hoping the whales
would stick to my schedule,

but it seems they have other ideas.

So how does an Italian get named
after an American state?

Delaware?

I like to think the state
was named after me.

But you'd have to ask my father,
the American.

He doesn't live in Delaware,
does he?

Last I heard he was in Ohio.

Tell me...

How did you end up in Canada?

Dishonourable discharge.

-You were military?
-US Navy.

I was a trainer. Dolphins, mostly.

We used them to clear mines
in the Persian Gulf

and the invasion of Iraq in 2003.

When they were retired
from active service,

they didn't know
what to do with them.

They didn't think they
were fit for the wild.

Said they were worried
they wouldn't survive.

So they kept them in captivity.

In pens,

to small to swim.

Kept alive just to die.

So I freed them. Got caught,
got thrown out of the Navy.

Kicked around for a few years.

But a dishonourable discharge does
not inspire confidence in people.

Folks up here at the Institute
were a little more...

sympathetic.

-Lizzie, the whales are back.
-I know.

The reports are starting
to filter in. And not just here.

There have been sightings
up and down the coast.

Everywhere? At the same time?

Listen, I gotta go. I want to be
the first boat out there.

Hey, thank you.

Thanks.

Welcome on board.

-Thanks.
-Hi.

Hey!

Are you ready to see
one of these for real?

-Hey...
-There you go.

Glad we stayed in town.

Despite some protests.

So, are you guys excited?

Hey! Glad you made it.

Didn't think I'd be
able to see them.

Not only you. Ponchos are next
to the life jackets.

Thanks!

Alright, land-lovers.
Everybody on board!

There are pods of whales

which are residents
to the Vancouver Island area.

However, our most exciting visitors

are the whales that
migrated south last year

and are only arriving back just now.

Did you see that?

Do you know
what kind of whale this is?

-No.
-Orca.

-Orca.
-Do you know that Brian

uses this part
to navigate on a ship?

There's a radar
and you turn it like this

and it gives a direction.
That's what this is for.

Well, hello! Look like we've got
our first visitor!

An adult humpback
can reach fifteen meters

and weigh up to thirty tonnes.

They're bigger than Godzilla!

-Where is it now?
-It's gone!

Lizzie, come in!

Whoa, where did it go?

Lady Wexham,
this is Zodiac, come in.

Lizzie, do you copy?

This is Zodiac, come in!

Get ready,
here comes another soaking!

My daughter!

Where's my daughter?

This is Zodiac, we need help.

I repeat, we need help now!

Get out of the water!

Alicia!

Mommy!

-Mommy!
-Come on!

Grab my hand!

Hurry up!

-Mommy!
-Get on the boat!

Get up!

Lizzie!

Please!

Lizzie, come on!

Lizzie!

No!
