The lab areas have
been experiencing

power surges over the
last several hours.

So, you have to check the
chambers every few minutes.

I thought the
cryogenics lab was tied

to the mother ship's
main power core.

No, the labs have an
independent power supply.

These are the normal settings
for each of the containment tanks.

Make sure the
readings never vary

more than plus or minus
2% from the normal.

Are we clear?

Yes, ma'am.

As I was saying,
stay alert.

Interdimensional drives engaged.
The shuttle docking cleared.

Liam, Liam. Check this out.

Cleared for entry
to shuttle bay 4.

All landing bays are
currently occupied.

Shuttle take off in 40 seconds.

Shuttle take off in
40 seconds, huh?

I'm plugged directly into
the air traffic control system

of the mother ship.

You hacked in there
on your own?

I can monitor all
incoming and outgoing

transmissions from
every Taelon craft.

Sandoval just reprogrammed
all the security codes.

You're telling me you
broke them already?

Alright, alright, Lili did lift
the security codes from Sandoval.

Big deal! That was the easy part,
I was the one that put them to use.

- Good work, Augur. I mean it.
- Damn right it is.

Oh, I'd love to sit here and
sing your praises all day,

but I get to pick up
Da'an on the mother ship.

Just jealous.

Subtitled by
Axarion

They are the Companions.

Aliens come to Earth
on a mission of peace.

Their true mission,

the secrets they hide,
forever alter humanity.

Caught in the struggle
between these Taelon Companions

and the Human Resistance
is Liam Kincaid.

A man who is more than human.

The mysteries of his past
hold the key to Earth's future

and the fate of mankind.

On Earth Final Conflict.

And you are required
to provide full details

of all Taelons programs
to the Synod.

You are the only Synod member who
has requested such information.

So be it.

I will have Agent Sandoval deliver
a detailed report to your quarters.

Ready the shuttle.

I will wait here for Agent
Sandoval to complete the report.

Interdimensional drive is
scheduled for maintenance.

Contact me on the
bridge when you're done.

Fly me away from here.

The Jaridian has escaped
from the hyber chamber.

Close down the shuttle bay.

Security, to the shuttle bay.

The alien had stolen the shuttle
and taken Marquette as hostage.

Open the shuttle bay doors!

Send me a video feed.

- What's the destination?
- Silence!

Explain this.

We are being pursued
by another shuttle.

Evade him.

The Jaridian must be killed.

Destroy the shuttle as
soon as you have the lock.

Marquette's on board,
I'm gonna try...

I gave you an order, Major! Capt.
Marquette will have to be sacrificed.

Initiate the
interdimensional drive.

This is the location.

Major, fire!

Kincaid failed to
hit the target.

Capt. Marquette's
shuttle jumped into

interdimensional
just as he fired.

Both crafts have moved out
the communication range.

We're being
pulled off course!

By what?

Some kind of focused
gravitational beam.

The shuttle’s
still in pursuit.

Not at this time.

And again.

- Can you fire?
- I can't even steer!

Everything's dead.

Something's governing shuttle's
controls and draining its power.

Follow me.

What's your plan?

We'll destroy whatever
is shuttling down our powers.

Then we'll continue
to our destination.

Are you familiar with
the origin of this craft?

Never seen anything
like it in my life.

Come on!

How did you learn to
speak my language?

Years of captivity.

Listening to your kind speak

as they conducted
experiments on me.

You're after the shuttle's
interdimensional drive unit, aren't you?

When we reach
the Jaridian homeworld

with interdimensional
technology,

we will return
to Earth in force.

Taelons will cease to exist!

What the hell was that?

The Taelons are
responsible for this.

No other race is capable
of build a ship like this!

I don't think so.

This doesn't look like something
the Taelons would create.

Why should I trust you?

You work for the Taelons.

I should kill you!

Then do it! Kill me!
Kill me now!

You do not fear death.

What's it look
like to you?

Explain yourself.

I've been to war.

I've seen enough death,
I don't fear it.

You fought the Taelons!

No.

Other human beings.

What kind of animal
kills its own kind?

What are you staring at?

I find it a contradiction.

That a being of such a
strong aggressive nature

could exist in such
a fragile shell.

Women on your planet
don't go to war?

In my world,
male and female

fight side by side as
equals, as they should!

So you're a soldier
too, aren't you?

Like all Jaridians!

Because that is what the
Taelons have forced us to be.

Taelons!

You both have traveled
a long way to die.

The Jaridian should never have
been brought aboard this ship.

You are wrong.

Our years of observation
will prove to be invaluable

when the Jaridians
arrive on Earth.

By holding the Jaridian prisoner
this long, disaster was inevitable.

You should have
heeded my warning.

- He will be recovered.
- And if not?

If he is successful in escaping with
the interdimensional technology?

This foolhardy decision

is not worthy of the
leader of the Synod!

Liam, look out!

You have Shaqarava?

A gift from my father.

I am part Kimera.

Liar!

There's no more Kimera.

Then how do
you explain these?

You were sent to kill me.

I could've killed you
from my shuttle

before you jumped
into interdimensional.

And anyway, you need my help
if you wanna get out of here alive.

Because this ship
is Kimera too.

I knew the second I saw it.

It's so familiar.

It must be a warship.

The Kimera would
not build a warship.

You can read this?

Yes, I can.

It's a repository.

Holding the accumulated knowledge
of the entire Kimera race.

That doesn't make any sense.

This ship dragged
us here by force

and now it's trying
to kill us, why?

- I can't explain it.
- How do we get off?

We should be able to
get out any time we want.

This ship is designed
only for those

wishing to seek the
knowledge of the Kimera.

Clearly it's holding us
here against our will.

The programming must be damaged.

What happens if somebody wants
to seek the Kimera's knowledge?

These chambers determine

if a being is worthy in
the eyes of the Kimera.

The eyes of a race
that no longer exists.

That's the purpose
of this ship.

It puts you through a series of
physical and psychological tests

to determine if it'll let you
its core, the repository itself.

But this isn't a test, Liam,
this is for real, life and death.

Only because the
programming has been damaged.

The Kimera wouldn't
kill like this.

We have to deal with the
reality of this Kimera ship.

Our only option is
to get to the guts

of the ship control systems

so we can figure out
a way from there.

How do you know that?

We can go back to
our dead shuttles,

or we can go to the core
and take our chances.

- I'm going to the core.
- Where is it?

I'll have to show
you the way.

I want you in a shuttle
hunting the Jaridian yourself.

Zo'or, I can be more
effective if I can

coordinate the search
efforts from the bridge.

Do I need to remind
you who is responsible

from security aboard this
ship, Agent Sandoval?

The ship from which
the Jaridian escaped.

I'm fully aware of my
responsibilities, Zo'or.

If the Jaridian
is not killed,

the Synod will show
neither of us mercy.

Do you trust Major
Kincaid and Capt. Marquette

to kill the Jaridian for us?

So the ship created the creature
that attacked from the water?

The obstacles are designed to
test our reactions to danger.

How did you become a
captive of the Taelons?

I was in a deep space
patrol when my ship

was caught in the planet's
gravitational field.

I crashed on an asteroid.

I was near of what you
would consider death.

So the Taelons
saved your life?

They brought me from the
honorable death I deserved.

They locked me in a box for
their scientists to experiment on.

What were they
trying to find?

A way to destroy us.

Do you deny that
you allowed human

technicians access
to the Jaridian?

No, I do not deny it.

It was necessary.

It is in direct violation
of the Synod edict

that no human being shall
be exposed to the Jaridian.

I am the leader
of the Synod.

I have been granted
broad discretion

in how I manage
Taelon affairs.

Your arrogance
is unprecedented.

I demand that the Synod consider
your removal as our leader.

My priority now is
to kill the Jaridian.

Once that is accomplished you will
have no basis for such a demand.

Do you not understand?

The damage
is already done.

What damage?

When a human being looks
into the eyes of a Jaridian,

Who will he see?

The enemy we have
portrayed as evil incarnate,

or someone
more like himself?

Are you certain this is the
right way to the ship's core?

Positive.

- Stop!
- What's the matter?

It's a trap.

How do you think
he was killed?

I'll go.

No!

I will lead.

Did you notice his eyes?

He must be able to
enhance his vision.

It's a dead end.

I'll be back.

Follow me, I can
remember his moves.

I hope so.

We got to go up!

I can do it myself.

We don't have time.

And sector 4,700
through 5,000

are reporting no trace of
the stolen shuttle, sir.

Continue searching in sector 5,000.

These sectors are uncharted,
sir, even in the Taelon databanks.

I don't care. Do it!

Why are the Jaridians
hunting the Taelons?

The Jaridians and Taelons
are genetic brethren.

We were one race.

We split apart
over the Shaqarava.

The Shaqarava?

The Taelons could not control
the dark side of the Shaqarava.

So they gave it up in their
quest for spiritual perfection.

And the Jaridians aren't
afraid of the Shaqarava?

No.

We are more afraid
of the Commonality.

We do not want to lose

our passion,

our joy,

our ability to love,

to hate,

and to reproduce.

The Taelons
can't reproduce?

In their quest for
spiritual perfection,

the Taelons did
not realized

they were on a path to
eventual extinction.

But the Jaridians have had
no problems with reproducing?

The Jaridians
are multiplying.

While the Taelons
are dying off.

They're desperate.

Desperate for what?

To rejoin the Jaridian
and Taelon races.

So we can give them
back what once they lost.

So they can survive

at our expense.

Why are you hunting
the Taelons?

Only because they
are hunting us.

They wish to use
humanity as the tool

to bring us to our knees.

Have you located
the Jaridian?

No, not yet, but we are..

You must find the
Jaridian within an hour.

We're now searching in
uncharted sectors, Zo'or.

It will slow the process.

Da'an has called
a meeting

To petition for my removal
as leader of the Synod.

We have to find
another way.

We gotta go down here.

I'll check it out.

I'll go.

I know the way.

Just give a tug and
we'll bring you back up.

- You okay?
- So far.

I can't see a
thing down here.

There's no more rope.

Alright, that's it,
we're pulling you back up.

No, I'm gonna drop
the rest of the way.

You don't know how
far the bottom is!

We have no other choice, we
gotta keep moving to the core.

Liam!

You okay?

A door's here. Just like the
writing on the wall said it would be.

Liam!

What happened?

Liam!

Liam!

Damn it!

No breath.

No pulse.

One, two, three, four...

Come on, Liam, fight!

Why do you try so hard?

I thought you did
not fear death.

Because he's my friend,

and he's our best shot
against the Taelons.

And against the Jaridians.

If it came to that, yes,
and against the Jaridians.

Now, fight, Liam. One,
two, three, four...

Let me.

No!

Get away from him! Get
your hands off of him!

Oh, what happened?

The explosion
almost killed you.

But he saved him.

I owe you one.

You don't owe me anything.

We need each other
to get off this ship.

What does that say?

It's a greeting.

A welcome.

It says the ship will
make itself known...

I have taken this form to
communicate with you.

In your journey
through this ship,

you showed sacrifice,
bravery, strength.

But our final judgment is
that you're not yet ready

to receive the
Kimera wisdom.

We took everything you
threw at us. You will share!

We accept your judgment. We
just want to get off this ship.

No. I have not yet completed
my study of your species.

I demand you share
the Kimera knowledge,

so that I can take it back
to my fellow Jaridians.

That is precisely the
reason why you're not ready,

because you would use our
teachings to destroy another race.

I will not allow
you to condemn.

Nothing. I can't
feel anything.

We report of an unidentified
alien vessel in sector 5047.

Transmit the exact location.

Proceed to this location
at maximum speed.

What is the status
of your search?

We are on route to an
unidentified craft in sector...

You are too late. The Synod
is ready to be convene.

I am part Kimera.

You are entitled to
no special treatment.

I'm not looking
for special treatment.

But my heritage entitles me to
demand answers from this ship.

Go on.

The Kimera were celestial
anthropologists, were they not?

Yes.

The knowledge contained in
this repository was accumulated

during thousands of
centuries of studying

species across the galaxies.

And the Kimera
philosophy is the same

as that for
all anthropologists.

Never interfere with the
development of any species.

Correct.

Would you then agree that
every being is unique,

and therefore able to impact
the development of its species?

Of course.

Then this ship is violating
the Kimera directive.

It is interfering
with the development

of the species
you brought here.

Because it's killing them.

He's not dead.

The Kimera would not kill
him for this purpose,

to study different races.

Exactly.

Yet, you're killing.

The only explanation

is that your programming
has been damaged.

You are correct.

The programming has
been damaged.

I shall institute
repair efforts at once.

No, that isn't sufficient.

The programming could get
damaged again, and then what?

Then I shall repair it again.

But you were not aware
it had been damaged.

There is a flaw in
your basic programming.

If you kill again, you will destroy
everything that Kimera stand for.

I cannot find fault
with that argument.

Then you have
only one option.

Obviously.

You have 4 minutes
to depart the ship.

4 minutes?

The chambers have
been deactivated

and the self-destruct
sequence commenced.

Detonation in
3 minutes 45 seconds.

I will have the honor
of death I deserve.

Not just yet. Let's go!

Detonation in
3 minutes 30 seconds.

Do you have any
defense to the charges

brought against
you by Da'an?

We are fighting for
the life of our species.

Every decision I have made is in
furtherance of that imperative.

You have violated a clear
directive from the Synod,

to avoid any interaction between
humanity and the Jaridian.

The knowledge we gained
by studying our enemy

outweighs the risk of
exposing him to the humans.

This was not your
decision to make.

You are serving
your own interests.

Not the interest
of the Commonality.

I was named leader of the
Synod because I know exactly

where I am
leading the Taelons.

I am not afraid to make
difficult decisions.

I challenge any of you to state
that I have acted improperly.

You have betrayed the
spirit of the Commonality.

I demand that
you step down.

It appears that Da'an is
the only one to challenge me.

And since I was named leader
of the Synod over Da'an,

I believe this
meeting is over.

I will not tolerate opposition.

Detonation in
1 minute 30 seconds.

Get it ready, I'll be there!

Liam, we've got power. Come
on, let's get out of here!

You got one shot
to get home.

The interdimensional
drives will engage once

and then they'll incinerate.

I wouldn't think
about it too long.

Why did you save me?

I told you. I owe you one.

If you stand against me
when Jaridians come to Earth

I will kill you.

Unless I kill you first.

Safe travels, my friend.

Detonation in 15 seconds.

13. 12. 11.

10. 9. 8.

7. 6. 5.

4. 3. 2.

1.
Detonation.

You think he made it?

Oh, I hope so.

Major.

Yes, Sandoval.

Where's the Jaridian?

We were aboard an alien
vessel that exploded.

The Jaridian was
killed in the blast.

Are you certain?

And Capt. Marquette and I
sustained only minor injuries.

Thanks for your concern.

If the Jaridian input is
destination, it should be here.

You can trace any
shuttle communication?

I'm impressed.

Impressed, but
not surprised, I hope.

- Never.
- Okay, here it is.

Any idea where this is?

His home.
