[train rattling]

[Wilford] We all know
how this ends, don't we?

Everybody dies. [chuckles]

That shouldn't be a surprise.

So, what's an old white man to do
with a lifetime of knowledge,

doomed to erasure,

except wield it like a sword?

Great men say, "Balls to death."

My crew respect that.

[instrumental music playing]

[bell dings]

Good morning, dear family. Rise and shine.

We are 2,468 days from departure,

and three days since reconnection.

For a special comrade,

I have chosen Camille Saint-Sa�ns'
"Royal March of the Lions."

We are lions,

here to reclaim our Engine Eternal

from a gibbering pack of hyenas.

Our pride stalks, waits,

each of you
playing your parts in a great odyssey.

Some pay a higher cost than others.

And none among us
has paid more than Icy Bob.

We should all
make sacrifices like our Bob.

Honing our purpose to the ready.

Let our Coldman unite us,
the point of our spear�

for the day we retake�

what's mine.

- Apocalypse isn't so bad, really�
- [button beeps]

�if you can just muddle through,
show a little ingenuity.

[Icy Bob screams]

[Wilford] People line up for tickets
to the only show in town.

Aboard Snowpiercer, my train,

all 1,034 cars long.

[Icy Bob screaming]

[theme music playing]

[Bennett] Standing fast in the face
of doubt, especially your own,

it's what a leader has to do.

Sure, but it's not
what a mother should do.

- [Bennett] Hey�
- [Melanie sighs]

If Mother Earth
is coming back to life, then, yes,

it's what a mother should do.

[sighs]

One month.

[Alexandra] About an hour left
until we switch track and head west.

Breakfast is served.

It's going to be a shitshow getting
Snowpiercer over that mountain.

They smell our eggs, you know.

Now they're craving
fresh food like never before.

- Mmm. God.
- [metal clatters]

Good.

Everyone needs to stay hungry.

A scar to remind you
how far you're willing to go.

All it does is remind me
that Melanie flipped the tables on us.

I know. Sound science
that the Earth may be warming.

It's fabulous.

And she's departing
on a veritable suicide mission,

leaving Mr. Layton,
our fearsome revolutionary.

I'm tingling.

This will be far more fun

than simply slitting his throat.

Big Alice, do you copy?
This is Snowpiercer.

[Wilford over PA] Well, it's lovely
to finally hear your voices.

This is the old Rocky Mountain test track.

AKA "Neckbreaker."

[Wilford] But I assure you
it's much more dangerous than it sounds.

This high point here
is as close as we can get to the station.

[Alexandra] No,
Snowpiercer is the problem.

We just came over Neckbreaker.
That track is sound.

But because Snowpiercer
has to slow for the Berthoud Curve,

we won't have enough speed
to get up that mountain.

But once we're through the curve,
Big Alice can activate our booster.

It can give us
just enough torque to take us over.

[Melanie] That's correct.

And if it doesn't work?

[Wilford] "If it doesn't work?"
Is that you, Mr. Layton?

Whatever are you doing
among the Engineers?

Civilian oversight, Mr. Wilford.

- That's how it is up here now.
- "Civilian"?

What happens if it doesn't work is this.

We have to reverse out of there,
go around the world,

and come at it from the other direction.

[Wilford] Oh, we don't want that.

Melanie will miss her window
to jump ship and die saving the world.

Won't you, Melanie?

Yes, we would miss this opportunity.

And the truth is,
we don't have the luxury of time.

Okay, so that's the plan.
Let's get to work.

Ruth is sending you a list of supplies.

This isn't the right stationery.

I would like permission
to come aboard with Ben to pull equipment.

[Wilford] Nope. Not Ben.

Oh, really? And why not Ben?

Because Big Alice is a Ben-Free Zone, Ben.

[Melanie] Then Alex can help me.

Very well. Send me your list.

I'll meet you at the border
and frisk you myself.

[Melanie] Good.

Well, we have a thousand kilometers
of dead-straight track before the Rockies.

Let's see what two engines can do.

[speaking Spanish]

[laughs] We've left the main track,
heading for the Rockies.

Hey. Wilford's gonna
squeeze us for these supplies.

And we still need parts for Snowpiercer.

Yeah, I got an idea for that.

I'm gonna come with you up to the border.

I have a list of supplies to deliver.

- [Melanie] Thank you, Ruth.
- What for?

Helping drag us into the Rockies
on a suicide mission?

I leave that to you.

She doesn't make it easy on you, does she?

My advice, don't lie to her.

I regret that I did,
and I'll probably never make it right.

But, for you,

she's a rare straight arrow
if you can keep her.

[Ruth] Make way, Mr. Roche.

And best make your way to the border.

Why? What's going on?

Engineers and mountains
almost as big as their egos.

Where will we land when the snow settles?

[Roche] Hopefully on a couchette,
with my wife and a cold beer.

[Ruth scoffs]

Hey, boss.

I'm not your boss anymore.

You sleep in here?

Single life, remember?

I broke up with my Second Class cabin.

You're Train Detective.

Layton should be able to find you a berth,
for Pete's sake.

Yeah, I got more important issues.

That Tailie assault?

It ain't good.

There's much ado about something
at the border. Let's go find him.

[sighs]

Rubber stamps. I mean, look at her.

How's a Tailie supposed
to move a little weed now?

[Layton] It'll work.

It might work.

Just wanna set the hook in his people.

[doorbell ringing]

Ladies and gentlemen,
the bell of progress.

A hotline at the border,
and communication between the engines.

Let's all be on our best, now.

Good morning, Big Alice.

This is Snowpiercer's Head of Hospitality.

We are clear for crossing.

Good morning.

Shouldn't, uh, Kevin be doing this?

I'm doing it.

[Wilford] Poor Kevin is ill.

Must have picked up something

unsanitary over there
with you, Mr. Layton.

Have you seen
your frenemy's shopping list?

Yes, sir, I have.

You want six
redox flow batteries, Melanie?

[Melanie] That's right.

Where's Alex?

[Wilford] Oh, she's packing your chute.

Are you nervous?

You can have four.

[Melanie] No, I need all six,

so I can make it through
the first 24 hours

and get the station powered up.

Well, I'm not giving you a volt sled.

Pretty sure you have three volt sleds.

Yes, I have three volt sleds.

But if I give you one,

I'll only have two, won't I?

Actually, sir, that's just Melanie's list.

Snowpiercer is in need of parts,
as I understand,

particularly the um�
the� [smacks lips]

- Bogie motors.
- Bogie motors.

Three, I'm told.

They're pretty important
seeing as we're all one train now.

So, I thought that maybe
we could work out a trade.

Some fresh fruit, vegetables,

bread, eggs, a jug of apple cider.

We will supplement
your diet once a week�

in exchange for parts.

You seem like a capable leader.

Amazing what you've learned�
in such a short time.

I'll consider it.

And I'm leaving on
a volt sled in 14 hours, Joseph.

Permission to board.

Hospitality would be happy to escort, sir.

Regretfully, not today, Ruth.
You'll get your turn.

Bring her in.

Adieu, Mr. Layton!

Pretty soon, it's just you and him.

[door opens]

[Wilford] Twenty-seven cars
of supplies, Melanie. Twenty-seven.

All the bits and bobs.

The stuff of life.

[Melanie] Our chances of survival
just got a lot better.

[Wilford] A warming trend.

Genius.

I was up all night
mulling your hypothesis.

It's plausible. The Headwoods agree.

[Melanie] Then put your mind to it.

'Cause if we can model it,
then maybe we can build our first colony.

[Wilford] Please, I'm aboard.

Bravo, you've filled the train with hope.

It's just sad you're gonna
freeze to death for the data.

[Alexandra and Wilford chuckling]

[Wilford] You find that
tragicomic, too, Alex?

[Alexandra] No.

No, with six RFBs she'll be fine.

[Wilford] Oh, what a shame.

If you can make it to the station.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's the, uh� first hurdle.

You can go, Dubs.

I've got her.

You'll be in deep, drifted snow.

If you have to detour through
any crevasses or avalanche debris,

your sled could be out of fuel
by the time you get to the station.

The sled can stay dead
till I have to get back to the track.

No, because we don't know
how degraded their solar panels are.

And your data systems need a reliable
power source to create a climate model.

I'll get it done.

Pass me that voltmeter.

[Melanie] I haven't seen
any other kids on Alice.

[voltmeter beeping]

Well, that would be
'cause I'm the youngest crew member.

Do you have any friends?

Just what do you think is going
to happen here over the next few hours?

As much as possible.

Kind of ironic, right?

'Cause we're here packing your shit
so that you can leave me, again.

It's worse than ironic.

It's awful.

I'm sorry.

[Alexandra] Leave once, that's a decision.

Then you leave me twice,
and then that becomes a choice.

Yes, I'm choosing to go.

But only because there's not much
chance of a world for you if I don't.

Okay, so� what do you wanna know?

Everything.

What do you love to do?

Who pierced your ears?

Where you sleep.

Will you ever laugh?

- [imitates laughter]
- [Melanie laughs]

- Ha!
- [both chuckle]

Okay.

I'll show you where I sleep.

Come on.

[Mama Grande]
She doesn't want Miles to see her.

She knows everything, mijo.

I'm so sorry, Josie.

[Josie scoffs]

For what?

Falling back into Zarah?

I was dead.

Yeah. But you're not dead.

You're right here.

Look at me, Layton.

I don't care
who the mother of your child is.

You know who did this to me.

[Layton] Melanie.

I had to make the alliance.

It was the only way.

You sacrificed 35 Tailies to her plan.

The people who I convinced to fight.

I wanted to die with them.

But now you've given them
nothing that we promised.

And your leadership is in question.

[clears throat] Josie, this mission...

It's Melanie's mission.

Yes, I believe the Engineers.

I believe that this is our best chance.

And now, it is my job
to defend it from Mr. Wilford.

Revolutionaries make terrible politicians.

That's how they see you now.

I am still a Tailie, Josie.

And you need my support,

or you'll lose them.

[Terence] Still no marijuana, huh?

You sold yourself as a smuggler.

I smuggle smugly, my friend.

I just came from the border, where I was
privy to some high-level trade talks.

My advice at this time would be
to have another olive, be patient.

Not my strong suit.

So, if you got no weed�

Yes?

I really don't want you sitting up here.

No offense, it just looks bad.

You know, dealing with the Tail.

Sorry, Lights, you gotta show me.

See?

What's that look like to you?

[Layton] You must have seen something.

They black-bagged me.
It happened in seconds.

I saw them run away. They had masks.

Yeah. Took the fingers with them.

Track talk says it was the Breachmen.

[Lights] I'm not saying nothing.

Just come gunning for me harder.

She was trying to open
a repair stall in the market.

How free's the Tail
if everyone's still prejudiced against us?

Hey, One Tail.
All right, we'll protect ourselves.

You all know how to protect each other
and hold the line.

Just don't cross it.

We got this.

Yeah, and I got you.

I'm gonna find out who did this,
and they're not coming back.

Okay?

I said it before.
Wilford's already got people here.

Yeah?

- Breachmen love Wilford and hate Tailies.
- But that's not proof of anything.

[Till] Someone's trying to throw
the fear of God into us.

They're top of the list.

Roche, wanna go with her
to visit the Breachmen?

Not really, no.

Thank you.

Breachmen, I hate these guys.

Well, I used to be police,
so just do what I do.

What's that?

Think of them as firemen.

[rock music playing]

You can't just chip in here.

- Nice to see you, too, Boki.
- I wouldn't go that far.

No, but we're paying him
the courtesy of a house call.

So, who's been wearing masks lately,

attacking Tailies up by the Tea Room?

Anyone?

[whistles]

Weights down.

This Guild drinks an awful lot
of Wilford Kool-Aid, don't you?

A lot of us are glad that he's back.

Well, what do you gotta say
about cutting off people's fingers?

Hey, you boys can oil up and talk
at the same time, right?

Why so tense, Detective Till?

Hmm?

I don't know, you guys seem
a lot more jacked than me.

Yeah, we're juicing
the world's last steroids up in here.

[chuckling]

You are half-ass famous.

Brakeman helped lead the revolution.

[Till] That's me.

Where was your Guild?

Right here. We were in mourning.

Yeah, when we found out
Wilford wasn't even in the Engine,

it was� very traumatic.

So we sat it out.

Just like we'll be sitting out
your democratic experiment.

We don't need to attack nobody.

We'll be right here, waiting�

for him.

[door closes]

[Emilia] Holy shit.

- On my watch?
- Don't you dare tell him.

Hi, I'm, uh� Alex's mom.

Melanie.

Oh, my God.

You're on your own, Alex.

[sighs]

[Alexandra] Don't worry about that.

Hurry up.

[Melanie] It's a nice bunk.

We get to decorate them,
but they're all the same.

Except for Wilford's.

Well, you made it nice.

I use this to visualize our route.

Yeah. Me, too. Same trick.

[Alexandra] Well,
we did have the same teacher.

I used to draw you�

to picture what you looked like.

I pictured your face, too, all the time.

Wow. [inhales]

You're so talented.

Wilford says
you're the best driver he's ever seen.

Hey, Rocky Mountain test track.

[Alexandra] "Neckbreaker."

Not this time, though.

When Snowpiercer
gets to the Berthoud Curve,

- Big Alice will be all the way back here.
- Mmm-hmm.

[Alexandra] Firepower and strength

will get Snowpiercer through
this crazy vertical.

Then at the highest peak
you have to get out

and take the sled
all the way back to the station.

Yeah. And then you guys
do the most important part.

Lay a string of weather balloons
across the Bering Sea Bridge,

down into Siberia, China,
up into the Himalaya.

Then we have to circle back
to the station and pick you up in a month.

Yeah.

That is some crazy shit, Mom.

[chuckling]

What are you doing?

Feeling the train.

She lets you know how she's doing.

Snowpiercer's already
in the mountains up ahead.

- You can feel that?
- Mmm-hmm.

Think you might have a wheel
out of alignment, too. Better check.

We need to go.

[Bennett] Parts for food.

You cut that deal
face-to-face with Wilford?

[Layton] Establish trade.

It's not done yet, but he'll go for it.

[Bennett] That must be what worries me.

[Layton] He's a jealous man.

You know, when he chooses you,

you enter his court.

It's amazing at first, he's amazing.

But then the knives come out.

He divides people for sport.

Melanie and I refused to let him.

- Is that why Big Alice is a Ben-Free Zone?
- [Bennett] Probably.

His brand of jealousy isn't about anything
normal like love, or betrayal, or sex.

It's just about control.

We might have to find a way to use that.

[Bennett] Yeah, we might.

But we still have to go
halfway across the world with him,

so whatever your plans are�

No secrets.

We'll get back to Melanie together.

How's my boy?

- [door closes]
- [Wilford chuckles]

[Mrs. Headwood] Ninety-six below.

[Mr. Headwood] Fifty-four minutes.
Best he's ever done.

[monitor beeping]

He needs to go colder. Longer.

[Mr. Headwood] Well,
we need a few more treatments.

Do we have the full month?

Count on half that.

[door opens]

[system beeping]

[beeping stops]

[train rattling]

[Wilford] Is she still doing that?

She said there's a wheel out of alignment.

[Wilford] And?

Well, I asked the drivetrain guys,
and she's right.

Car nine, front bogie, left rear.

Right under the barracks,
and none of us even saw it.

You're not going
sentimental on me, are you?

No.

We want her off this train.

Look at me.

I want to hear you say it.

We want her off this train.

[Melanie over radio]
Alice, we are on descent.

Hello, Melanie.

Have you got your woollies on
for your grand exit?

No, not yet.

But you're nearly rid of me, Joseph.

[Wilford] Well,
in that spirit of cooperation,

Alex will be in the driver's seat.

I think it's only fitting she drive
her mother into the great beyond,

don't the rest of you?

Roger that.

Glad to have you, Engineer.

Roger, Snowpiercer.
We see that you're approaching the curve.

[Melanie] Less than a minute away.

But we have hit
our first little speed bump.

Oh, let me guess.

Snowpiercer doesn't quite
have the reserves you anticipated.

We have a solution.

[Bennett] All right, listen up.

To make over the top, we're gonna need
to pull power from First and Second Class.

The only life support will be
in the clinic cars and muster stations.

We're gonna need the extra juice in�

twenty-five minutes.

Twenty-five minutes?
To get everyone to muster?

You can do this, Ruth. I know you can.

[system beeping]

[Melanie] Everyone, hold on.
We're coming in hot!

Everyone okay?

[Melanie exhales and chuckles]

All right, then, Mr. Layton.
You're with me.

If Melanie doesn't derail us.

Emergency. Emergency.

First and Second Class to the Nightcar.

Third to the Ag-Sec or Mess Hall.

Emergency, muster stations�

- Keep moving.
- [Tristan] Please�

All the way to the end.

[Zarah] Andre, where are you going?
We're mustering in the Nightcar.

They're not moving
the patients from the clinic.

- [Layton] You're gonna see Josie?
- She's alone.

Yeah, go be with her.
Right this way, guys. Come on.

All the way to the end.

[Tristan] Second Class
is entering the curve.

That is to say prepare to brace.

- [thudding]
- [passengers scream]

Thank you.

My God. For pity's sake, Tristan.

All right. Nice and calm now, everyone.

Muster stations, please.

[door whizzing]

[Josie] I need to see it.

Nice and calm. Keep moving.

This way.

All right, car clear. Sealing up!

Alice, we're on ascent.
Is the weather any better up top, Javi?

- Afraid not.
- We gotta get up there first.

[Melanie] Our speed is dropping too fast.

How much longer
until we can draw that extra power?

Few more minutes.

We're still
getting everyone to muster stations.

Could be a few minutes too late.

Okay, I just don't see
how we're gonna make it, Melanie.

The solution is simple.

The very moment we hit the booster
will have to be much earlier, won't it?

Hit the boosters before the curve?

That's too much speed, we'll derail.

I believe we've found
a teaching moment for Alex.

She'll have to keep up speed,
but not so fast that she derails us,

and we all die.

She can do it. She can handle it.

[Wilford] Snowpiercer?
Come in, Snowpiercer.

Copy, Big Alice.

You got this, Allie.

Just lay off the brakes, keep your nerve.

Isn't it nice
to work as a team again, Melanie?

[Miss Audrey] Muster stations. Come in.

A brand-new show is about to begin.

Melanie is on a mission,
and Mr. Wilford is�

The hell is going on with her?

She's cracking, Roche.

We all are, if you haven't noticed.

- All clear. Sealed and ready.
- Ruth!

[telephone rings]

[Melanie] Engine, how are we doing?

All passengers are at muster,
ready for shutdown.

And Hail bloody Mary.

We'll take it, Ruth. Amen.

Power down the cars now!

Copy!

Powered down.

[Melanie] Speed's still falling.

More speed. Take it from storage.

I already have.
We have to hit the booster.

We're almost to the curve.

[system beeps]

We're armed!

I'm proud you're here, Alex.

Copy.

She copies, if you didn't hear that.

Push her over the hill.

She'll be gone again.

You want this climb to fall short.

If you want to spend more time
with Mummy, just don't hit the booster.

[Bennett] She's got it.

Speed's climbing, Allie.

Hold on to it!

[Wilford exclaims]

[plate crashes]

If we accelerate any more,
we'll run ourselves right over the bank.

Or just tap the brakes. It's up to you.

[switch clicks]

You got this, Alex.

Just feel the train.

I'll get you there, Melanie.

And it's farewell to Mother!

Such drama! Bravo!

[Melanie] You did it.

[chuckles]

You did it, Allie.

I'll see you at the cold lock.

Time to go, Melanie.

[chuckles]

Look at me again.

That's the last tear I'll allow.

It's the last one you'll get.

[instrumental music playing]

[Wilford] Oh, come on, Alex,
cut the umbilical!

We're at the beginning
of a great adventure!

- Where are you going?
- Suit check and gear lock.

Gotta keep it nice and slow for her drop.

[Wilford] Jupiter!

[growling]

Down, Jupiter!

[Wilford] I let you spoil her.

The dog, too. [chuckles]

Go on, then. Say your last goodbyes.

[indistinct chatter]

- [man 1] Wilford.
- [man 2] Everybody get it.

I'll take that.

I know Wilford's back,
but you need to get it together.

[Till] We're not ready for this.

- Yeah.
- Hello again, Detective Till.

Pastor Logan. You know each other?

Lead Brakeman Roche. Of course I do.

What is it
you're worried we're not ready for?

We just never got our feet set.

Never showed these people
they could trust the new system.

Now Wilford's back in their heads.

You see what's changed in you?
And through all this turmoil?

You're concerned
about their souls now. [chuckles]

I mean, I'll admit,
I've got a stash of them.

Yeah, I don't think
Saint Christopher's gonna do it.

Well, it bears repeating.

The journey never ends.

The hope is real, Josie.

Melanie's getting
off the train to prove it.

[Josie] Melanie�

When my skin was freezing over,

I curled up, protected this hand�

'cause one fist is all I need.

You're going to be a father.

Your child.

That's a guiding light for all of us.

And if Melanie's mission is our only hope
to ever get off this train,

then our people have a new cause now.

Ruth.

I'll go and prepare the crossing.

Thank you.

Look, I think you know
what your priorities are.

Yeah. You want me to run it by you
to see if I got it? Protect the science.

Number one.

Yeah. To do that, I'll have to hold off
the megalomaniac who created this world

and wants to get power back again,

and he's already
got some supporters on his side.

Yeah, that's about the size of it.

Which leads me to believe

that he didn't want
anybody to get off this train

and recolonize
the Earth in the first place.

Just so we're clear,

success of this mission
will be measured in data,

not my survival.

Good luck, Andre.

Good luck, Melanie.

Pike, you can come on out. I see you.

[Pike groaning]

You caught me on the shitter, brother.

Listen. I want you to link back up
with your connect in the other train.

I'm giving you a pipeline.

Serious?

But only weed. And I get to tell you
what goes the other way.

I won't let you down, man.

[Melanie exhales heavily]

You can trust Layton.

He's a good man.

He's just. So are you.

Good men and women don't seem
to stay good long doing this, do they?

Please promise me you'll look after Alex.

I just�

I wanna know someone's� there for her.

It would mean a lot to me if it was you.

- Of course I will.
- [Melanie sobs softly]

You have my word.

Thank you.

[telephone ringing]

This is Snowpiercer.

We are ready to cross.

I'm glad you could make it.

Engineer.

We'll all be waiting for you
right here when you get back.

[Alexandra] So, you'll recharge the suit
immediately upon arrival.

[Melanie] Assess the damage,
prime the Shelter.

[Alexandra] Well, the damage
is what I'm worried about.

[Melanie] I'll find things to improvise
with there. Don't worry.

You know he put
that pressure on you on purpose.

When he made you drive the train,

and when he ordered you
to disconnect Snowpiercer

was 'cause he wanted
all that death on your conscience.

I just want you to know,

that's his cruelty, it is not yours.

Never forget that.

It's not your fault.

[Alexandra] I wanted
to keep you here longer.

I wanted to hit the brakes so bad.

But we did what we have to do.

We're not who you think over there.

So, if you ever need anything,
they're people you can trust.

Thank you.

I love you, Allie.

I'll see you in a month, Mom.

- Flare marks the drop point.
- [Javi] All right, guys, here we go.

Fire in three, two, one.

[train wheels screeching]

[Melanie exclaims]

[breathing heavily]
