Previously on Eureka. Sarah, you infected Andy with some kind of

didn't infect him. I improved him. Andy, I really like you. Wow.

Our goal for this election process has been to find the best of the best in

Eureka. What we really want to know is why space?

What or who inspired you to pursue it?

They've made their final selections for the Astraeus mission, and she wants me

to inform the candidates.

Then make it, Jo. I know.

I withdrew my name from consideration.

You what?

No, we did this together.

We should be going together.

Space isn't my dream.

Did you?

Yeah. Did you?

We made it!

Congratulations, Dr. Martin. You earned it. Thank you, Isaac.

Your selection is merely another example of bureaucracy rewarding mediocrity.

My condolences to Titan.

Whoa.

Morning, Sarah.

Sarah?

Morning. I think my house took the day off.

I wish I could.

I was talking to security for the official portrait of the Astray's crew.

Oh, so you'll be with Zane.

He's been giving me the stink eye since I pulled my name out of contention.

Because he thinks you made a mistake, didn't you?

No. I was in it for the wrong reasons. I don't need to go to Titan.

Because you're happy here.

I'm happy here.

Sarah, can I have some coffee, too, please?

She can't be busy.

Morning, folks.

Yes,

she can.

Good morning, Sheriff Carter, Miss Lupo. Isn't it a beautiful day?

Uh, yeah. Andy, this is the third day this week that you've slept over, yeah?

Neither Sarah nor I actually require sleep. We use the evening hours to

in intimate activities.

Okay. Eventually, we're going to have to lay down some ground rules for the

sleepovers, all right? Will those rules also apply to you and Dr. Blank?

No, because we're human and it's my house.

Oh, okay.

Well, I guess I better get ready for work then.

Wasn't very nice.

Come on. Doesn't that look like the toaster a guy would sleep over?

Sarah, what was that?

Sheriff Carter's breakfast accidentally fell into the garbage disposal.

Oh, very mature.

Ms. Lupo, would you please tell Sheriff Carter that I'm receiving a call for

police assistance at Dr. Welke's farm?

Got ears, Sarah. I'm right here. Dr. Welke's part of the Asturias crew. Did

mention what happened?

He's reporting that Lenore has liquefied.

Excuse me?

Oh, no more cowbell. I checked on her this morning. She was fine.

Lenore was so excited about the Titan mission.

We're sending cows to space?

She's just a host until I pack my scabies for the trip.

I'm an acrologist.

Dr. Welke studies cow mice.

But I can't test the hardiness of xylene -treated acari in a nitrogen -methane

environment now, can I?

All clear?

Taggart?

Back in town.

I'm a stress crowd supervisor for Boyer Organic Experiments. Been gathering up

projects from around the world.

Just brought in a shipment yesterday.

Ducky!

Jerry, sweetheart.

It's great to see you.

Wish we were under happier circumstances.

Yeah, any idea what happened?

I don't know.

I've never seen cellular break down like this in a vertebrae.

Well, is there any chance maybe you brought a little germ hitchhiker with

from another project?

Possibly. I'm going to head back and see if anything else was affected.

Could you use a hand?

Oh, sure.

Can you take this to Allison for an elephant?

Yeah, nothing says good morning like a jar of cow.

Have you, um... Have you talked to him?

Since 1947, since everything's changed.

No. Any idea if you were involved?

No clue.

What the hell is this?

Oh, well, must be, uh, critters in the rafters. Yo, you think?

Farms are growing.

I'm set to 1 dB per division, but still no signal.

Well, it's a billion miles away, so nailing the frequency will take some

We don't have much time. I mean, I know it's only a temporary camera, but the

whole idea of FTLing the comm system in advance was to establish a link before

you get to Titan with the crew.

You mean my crew?

I was just named captain of the Astralis.

You're being considerate, but oh, my God.

Well, it's official.

Senator Wen just called. It's crazy, right? Well, she couldn't have found a

qualified person, Captain Monroe. Thank you, Ground Commander Deacon.

Excuse me. Cargo unit B -17's at capacity.

Should we move it on to a launch pad? Yes.

We're still on the ground, Ground Commander.

Whatever works for you.

Well, I will inspect the unit first, and then you can move it.

Yes, sir.

We'll figure this out. Mm -hmm.

Well... Hey!

Coming to you live from the surface of Titan.

Want to play doctor?

Jack?

That's virtual harassment.

Oh, I had a dream that went sort of like this.

Oh!

No. It's a VR communication prototype for Astraea.

Separation trauma is a big problem on long missions.

Oh, I got you. I got you. I hate it to leap away camp.

But this should help the crew feel more bonded with home if I can get it to work

for more than a few minutes at a time.

I like our solution, which is staying together.

What is that?

Oh, um, I'll give you a hint.

What's black and white and dead all over?

Sorry, Parrish.

Official crew portrait, no alternates.

We're still officially members of the mission.

Whatever you say. Doug, first alternate is still an amazing achievement. It's

like you're almost a winner.

Almost. This isn't over.

Until that ship launches, I still have a shot.

Okay, people!

Group photo!

few months in space with all these yahoos.

These yahoos all worked their asses off.

Dan, I was kidding.

Yeah? Well, we take this mission very seriously.

So, uh, Captain, huh?

Congratulations.

I guess that means you'll be the first.

The first what?

The first person to set foot on Titan.

Oh, well, that honor hasn't been determined yet.

Well, in that case, I'd like to put my best foot forward. I am the head of GD.

You're playing the head of GD card?

It seems to me that the first person should be a woman. You're playing the

card? You guys got the moon. We should get Titan. It's even -steven. Okay, I

know we're all really excited, but right now we need to focus on the launch. So

let's get to work.

Briefing in ten.

Well, I see why she's the captain.

Oh, yeah.

FTL activated.

FTL activated.

Should that be doing it?

Henry, shut it down.

Ignition sequence activated.

Henry, shut it down. It won't deactivate.

Ignition sequence activated. Everybody out!

Everybody out! Everybody out!

Let's go!

Let's go!

Let's get out of the way!

Jack?

You okay?

Yeah!

Where's Andy?

Figure this out and get you home. Hold on a minute.

It's 290 degrees below zero on Titan. There's no way he can tolerate that for

very long.

Six hours.

Less. Maybe.

Maybe.

What if we rig the portable FTL drive somehow and send it to him?

With an internal power supply, Andy could transport himself home. Okay, I

get Zane and Fargo started. Good, I'll run some diagnostics and reset the FTL.

Okay.

Well, there's no tenderness over the bone.

Probably just have some bruising. You were lucky. Well, thanks to Andy, yeah.

How's he holding up?

Uh, first off, we're trying to get him home, but, uh, it'll be fine.

Jack, he's a billion miles away, freezing and breathing corrosive

The time could be different.

Yeah, it's... It's from Welke.

He won't answer. It's about a cow.

Poor Lenore.

I haven't found any biological pathogens, no prions or parasites.

Right now, there's no evidence that it came from inside the animal.

Then...

Outside? Somebody did this to the cow? Did the cow have many enemies?

Well, I don't know.

Maybe Welke did.

I mean, he had a seat on the mission, right? Well, who takes his place if he

can't go?

An alternate.

Right, the first alternate.

Thanks, Allie.

Looks like we're going to need another bottle, Vincent, and some more blinis,

you don't mind. Coming right up.

Champagne. What's the celebrating?

Actually, it's Prosecco, and I...

Am going to Titan.

Dr. Welke had to resign.

Turns out there's no point in him going without his experiment.

What a tragedy.

Would you like a blini, Sheriff Carter?

Why would I sabotage an experiment? It would ruin my chances of getting on the

mission. Yes, if you got caught, which is what's happening right now.

I didn't do anything to Welke's stupid cow, Sheriff. You know how I know?

Because cows don't melt.

How about Jeeps?

Do they melt?

How's the FTL? We're rigging up cadmium aerogel insulation to protect the drive.

How's Andy holding up? You can't keep a good deputy down.

Yeah, because she's not a quitter.

Well, I'm going to go and help an Australian find some slime.

Let me know if you need anything.

You know, it's her choice to not go to Titan.

What? I don't care.

Dude, do you know how many hours I spent coaching her on orbital mechanics?

And hydrostatics. Then she just drops out.

Leaves me and... Um, leaves you how?

Nothing. She's a waste of my time.

Can we just get back to trying to save Andy?

Cockroaches? Not melted?

Tarantulas, not melted.

Millipedes, not melted.

Oh, I think this one went the way of the cow.

Oh, that one's supposed to be goo.

Plasmodial slime mold.

Can't go to Titan without your slime mold.

So, what have you been up to since I saw you last? Well, you know, this and

that.

tagging ostriches in the Sahara for a bit.

And when we last saw each other... Ah!

Water under the bridge door.

Look, um... I'm not going to say it didn't sting when you turned me down.

I turned you down?

My proposal.

You're playing at something, chat.

No, no, I'm sorry.

You asked me, and I turned you down.

Because that's what I do.

So, uh, what's next?

Mosquito larvae.

Not melted.

Breeding mosquitoes for the Asturias habitat? Well, that's not going to score

you points with the crew.

These are feed mosquitoes.

A sustenance for my apketicus fluscus.

Big brown bats.

Happy in Earth's atmosphere, but able to withstand a high -methane environment,

like Titan.

Genetically modified to provide fuel via their guano.

Want to take a peek?

Not as appealing as that sounds.

Go on, they're beauts!

Haggard. They're gone.

Firing circuits are charged and ready. Are we? Yes, ready when you are.

Fargo, we are ready.

It's about in position.

Let's hope it works this time.

Listen, we're sending the portable FDL drive to him now.

What do a cow and a jeep have in common?

What? What would cause them both to melt?

All right, we're ready.

Safety's off.

A cow melted?

Hey, Andy?

You okay?

If I had hot cocoa, I wouldn't complain.

His skin is starting to vitrify in the cold.

All right.

We'll tell you what. When you come back, We go to Cafe, DM Coco's on me.

Ready to activate.

Ignition sequence activating.

Five, four, three, two, one.

What was that?

Really?

Didn't work, did it?

No, Jack, the blowback destroyed it on the pad.

Astronaut Andy.

Ready for departure.

Henry, how can you get them home?

All emergency personnel.

Any time now.

I don't know what else to do, Jeff.

All emergency personnel.

We need reporting. Guys?

They've been here.

Recently.

I'd be looking for a dark place to rest.

Every circuit for the FDL drive is falling offline.

I don't know, but I'm going to find out before I let my crew go up into that

ship.

How much longer does Andy have?

Maybe four and a half hours.

The atmosphere is already starting to corrode his peripheral systems.

Right. If we can't get him back, what's the worst case scenario?

We just order a new Andy and plug in the back of this, right?

No. It doesn't work that way.

First, Andy's a prototype.

Second, everything Andy's experienced through his emotion software builds

pathways in his processing core.

So he's a one of a kind.

Right.

Whoa, boys, check this out.

Circuits are liquefied. Wait, you said something about melting.

Yeah.

Lenore.

And my Jeep.

And maybe Judy.

How is he?

Well, it's a clean fracture, but he needs to stay off of it for six to eight

weeks. Five minutes.

I was a real astronaut for five minutes.

That stupid gritting robot gets to go to Titan, and I have to stay here. Watch

it, Parrish. My deputy is stranded on Titan, and I think you're involved.

Oh, leave me alone.

Look, whatever voodoo signs you did is out of control. And I messed with

FTL machine.

I did not melt Lenore. I think that he's telling the truth.

I scanned a sample of your leukocyte jeep off of his shoe.

Welke's cow in your jeep didn't melt.

They protonated.

What? Melting is a change in phase state.

Ice melts into liquid water. Protonation is violent.

Their subatomic components actually ripped apart.

Well, it doesn't matter how he did it. The point is that he did it so he didn't

mount my Jeep. He pro -tomated it. Only a super asset could do that to your

Jeep. And it would leave fluorosulfuric traces and perish his body. And there

were none in his blood test.

Told you.

Taggart.

Tim.

I, uh... In case I didn't say it before, I'm sorry about what happened. I'm glad

to be here.

No, I... I hope I didn't hurt you.

Well, thanks, sweetheart.

It means a lot.

I'm not going to say it didn't take me long to give me bearings, but then I

on a walkabout.

A walkabout?

Where'd you, uh, where'd you walk to?

Well, there is no to.

You just go.

The journey of self -discovery.

You'd hate it.

The point is...

When I was done, God made me peace.

Love.

Tell Allison the sample is from the main circuit panel.

Okay. And is the system still melting? Well, Dane and Fargo are trying to slow

it down, but unless Allison can determine what's causing the

can't stop this process.

She'll figure it out, and we can get him home. Jack, even if we can replace the

melted wire, we don't have a portable FTL to bring Andy back home. It was

destroyed, and I don't know if we can rebuild it. Hey, boss.

You there?

Yeah, yeah. Hey, pal. I'm right here.

My sensors are detecting a pretty severe...

Methane storm approaching due west.

Well, then you might want to work on building a shelter to break the wind.

Will do.

Even so, the methane concentration is pretty intense.

I'm bound to corrode.

You've been through worse.

Right, and if anybody can handle it, you can.

Hey, boss.

I need a favor.

Sarah?

Sarah? Sarah?

Sorry about this morning.

But we have to talk.

All right, Sheriff. It's a free country.

There's been an accident.

What kind of accident?

Andy's stranded on Titan.

That is far too harsh an environment for his soft skin.

You must get him back to Earth as soon as possible. And we're doing everything

that we can.

But just in case, he's asked me to tell you.

That you're his.

Cathedral Bonita.

I guess he really cares about you.

I just didn't appreciate how much.

Sheriff, there's movement in my conduits. Yeah, I, I, you can feel

emotional. No, my sensors are registering unidentified movement inside

conduits.

Unidentified movement?

10 ,000 little needle claws in me and Sarah's all covered in crap. It's called

guano, actually.

Oh, thank you, Batman.

Where are they now? They left the smart house through the gamma conduit, so they

probably have a roost in GD.

All right, just get them under control.

Hey,

Joe, what's up?

Fire suppression is in effect.

All personnel have been evacuated. No, they haven't, you fucking brainless

people of software!

Put your back into it, Parrish!

Hey, where's the fire?

It's in when the suppression system went off by itself and sealed the doors. In

the misty stuff?

Sucking out all the oxygen.

All

right, everybody

out! Come on, people, let's go!

Everybody out!

Come with me! Out!

Out!

Let's keep going!

Give them over!

Let me guess.

These are the sensors that are supposed to detect when there are people inside.

Yes, same sensors that detect when there's a fire.

More protonation.

But melting.

Well, so much for Judy's fire suppression system. One spark in the

this whole place goes boom. All Institute fire safety protocols shut

combustion -related projects.

Well, that's great, but if we can't figure this out, a broken sprinkler

is going to be the least of our problems.

Nearly caught up with the wily little buggers.

Were the bats in the walls?

Passing through back home on their way to the roost, jotting from their spore.

That's disgusting.

Wait, did you track them back to Welke's farm or to the FTL service passage?

Both. They escaped on the road near Welke's farm and turned toward GD.

So things are melting wherever the bats fly?

You beat me to it. First bachelor pad on title.

I don't think Sarah would like that very much.

Atta boy. Keep thinking about Sarah.

She'll be waiting for you with open doors.

Okay!

Sarah?

Talk to me.

Hello, Sheriff.

How are you doing? You all right?

I can feel my connections dissolving. It hurts.

Okay. All right. We'll get you some help. Okay? You just hang on.

I'll go get you as soon as you can.

Hello? Yeah.

Please tell Deputy and Ethan I love him.

Hey, guys. Hey, how's Sarah?

Well, Fargo has her hooked up to some sort of computer life support system,

we need an answer fast.

The answer is bet.

No. How's a bat going to make something melt?

Tagger genetically altered their binary peritoneal glands.

Why would you do that?

To create guano rich in perchloric acid.

Clean, safe fuel for the Titan habitat. The problem is the guano is transforming

into some kind of super acid. It hasn't until I'm stronger than sulfuric acid.

There has to be an activating agent, a common element of all the affected

materials. Okay. What do we got? We got the cow, my Jeep, and the Eftel jumping

machine. So what do they have in common?

Let's try aminos, phenols, xylene.

Xylene. Dr.

Welke's cow fleas were made of xylene.

It's also in wire insulation, uh, Sarah's walls, uh, auto paint. That, I

explain my jeep.

Oh, my boy, I can tell you my crates was violin vice. So the crap that we're at.

Potential acidity factor is off the charts.

Oh, hold on.

Bat duty and xylene make super acid?

Right. Bat duty, really?

Hey, everybody, check this out. Hey, uh, we need to find those bats. You said

you knew where they were roosting. Getting closer. I triangulated all the

melting sites, and the center is right here.

Where are the smiley faces?

A massive storage tank full of methyl iodide. Yes, it's perfect.

But it's poison.

For them, I mean, they're nice and homey. If you like the atmosphere on

which they do. Okay, to neutralize the super acid and stop the melting, I'm

going to need an enzyme sample from the binary heretic gland of one of those

bats. We're going to have to go inside.

Oh, wait, into the huge tank of poison gas bats and super acid?

Oh, yeah.

I'm sorry.

Wow, was that so hard?

What are you talking about?

I'm sorry, because I never heard you say it before.

Saying leaving the mission was the right decision for me. I have to apologize,

because it's not about you.

Then maybe you should have clarified that before I got involved.

It was your idea. You're the one that told me to try.

And you let me think you really wanted to go the distance when you were really

just playing around.

Fine. Fine. I am sorry for not knowing exactly what I wanted.

Well, that's the crappiest apology ever, isn't it?

No total in there.

Haven't gone long before our gear starts dissolving in the tank.

You're a female.

Well, let's get one to get the hell out of here.

Unfortunately, the colony of brown bats is normally 85 % male.

Of course it is. And the difference between the boys and the girls is, uh...

Females are larger.

Ready?

For what?

You sure that's a good idea?

I'm provoking a cycle response.

I can't see the...

Don't we strive to seal this place up?

Allison and Taggart isolated the amino acids from the bats. Now we just need to

repair the damage to the FTL. I'm already on it.

How's Sarah?

On artificial life support.

I was able to connect an external hard drive before the crash, but we'll know

more once she's rebooted.

Thanks for asking.

Well, I know how attached you are.

In a not at all creepy way.

They may be AI, but Sarah and Andy have a real connection.

It would be tragic if they couldn't say goodbye.

She became our first AI widow. We all have to live with disappointment.

Enough with the doom and gloom already. It's so obvious.

What are you talking about?

You and Joe.

What, that she wasted my time?

That you're disappointed that she's not going with you.

Just tell her.

It's not my place to be disappointed.

It's not like we're even officially dating.

Honestly, I don't know what we are.

Then find out.

Pushing her away isn't making it easier on either of you.

Current temperature, 310 degrees below zero wind speed, 122 knots.

Hang in there, Andy.

You're doing great.

My internal diagnostics tell me quite the opposite, but thank you for saying

otherwise. Well, no one ever said being a deputy in Eureka was easy.

Kind of funny, Joe.

Meet me in here on Saturn's largest moon.

Funny how?

You wake up in the morning and you never know where the day is going to take

you.

That is funny.

Hey, Henry.

Methane stone is damaging the camera. The image has been deteriorating over

last hour.

It's okay. We're going to have a fix for the melting in a couple of hours. We'll

patch up the FTO. Carter, we don't have a couple of hours. His inner shielding

has been compromised.

Thanks.

Hey, buddy.

Where's it going?

Well, too slow.

Andy doesn't have much time.

I know.

You know, um... I know he's a robot, but, uh...

I feel bad.

I might just wish there was something I could do.

You've done a lot. He still has a chance because of you.

Well, hey, hey, listen.

We've improvised an FTL slingshot that has a chance of grabbing Andy back from

Titan.

But... He has to be at the exact coordinates where he arrived when that

opens. Now we've lost the concrete, so there's no way for us to tell him where

he needs to be.

Communicator thing she's been testing for the missions look right now. We got

get you back to the place you zapped in I Don't know if I can make it boss Just

try buddy What's a sheriff without a deputy, huh?

Yes, the extraction point is just ahead there should be a piece of cake easy for

the hologram to say

I was going to do home state.

Well, there's something you don't see every day.

Andy, you've got to reach that boulder right over there. As soon as you're

there, Henry's going to try to pull you back.

Okay?

Try.

Hurry!

We're losing signal!

Okay. I'll ask the signal if he steps away.

Stand by.

Please don't bring me back, boss.

Well, I'd say we're even.

Okay. Okay.

Hey,

how's Andy?

Defrosting, but he'll recover.

Yeah, he's tough.

Could I?

This mission is a big deal. I know.

It's history.

It's just when I thought about doing it, I always thought about doing it with

you.

I am sorry if I let you down.

Last crappy apology?

Yeah, a little.

So for the record, what is this?

You and me?

We're friends.

Yeah? Well, I think it's more than we ever were before.

Yeah, I got that, but... But that's not what you're asking me, is it?

You want to know if I'll wait for you?

Will you?

I don't know.

Because you don't know how you feel about me? No, no, because I... I don't

how I feel about a lot of things.

And I am trying to figure it out.

Can't make that kind of a promise until I do.

Okay.

Okay?

Honesty.

I never thought we'd get here.

I guess you never know where the day will take you.

Yeah.

Fargo? You there?

Yep. Well, we stopped the melting and replaced the damaged components. All

that's left now is to bring her back online. Did you recover her memory

Unfortunately, they were corrupted during the melting.

Some of her data was permanently lost.

Well, I thought that's just the stuff on my cholesterol.

Well, we're about to find out.

Sarah?

You there?

Yes, Dr. Fargo. How are you? I'm fine. It's good to hear my... your voice.

Hey, Sarah.

Uh, yes, worried there for a second.

Worried about what, Sheriff?

Uh... Nothing.

I have someone here for you. Someone who's pretty anxious to talk to you.

Hi, honey.

I'm home.

Sarah?

Everything okay?

I'm sorry.

I forget sometimes that you can't see me smile.

I was afraid I'd lost you, baby.

Take more than a titanic methane storm to keep me from my gal.

Come get warm.

It's 290 degrees below zero on Titan.

So I discovered.

Thank you.

I try not to think about it. Yeah, well, I guess my work here is done.

You did a great job.

Thanks. All in a day's work.

So I guess you're going to have another house guest for a while.

Yeah, seems that way. It's okay.

It doesn't feel so crowded.

Oh, Joe, wasn't enough? You want Andy, too?

Well, I want you.

I think, uh...

A house isn't a home unless you share it with the person that you love.

You realize I come as a package deal with Kevin and Jenna, right?

Really?

Yeah.

Living together.
