[NEWSCASTER #1]
...ABOUT THE UPCOMING LAUNCH

OF THE SAMSARA INTERNATIONAL
MISSION TO MARS.

SOURCES WITHIN
THE EUROPEAN SPACE AGENCY,
SPEAKING OFF THE RECORD,

HAVE CONFIRMED THAT
THE UPCOMING INTERNATIONAL
MISSION TO MARS

COULD BE IN JEOPARDY,
AFTER LAST WEEK'S ASSASSINATION

OF CHINESE PRESIDENT
TZANG WANZHOU.

[NEWSCASTER #2]
WHEN NASA DEFUNDED ITS
EXTRA-PLANETARY PROJECTS

AS PART OF THE 2024
AGENCY RESTRUCTURING,

CHINA'S NATIONAL
SPACE ADMINISTRATION

STEPPED INTO
A LEADERSHIP ROLE
IN THE SAMSARA MISSION,

AMID RUMORS THAT
THE PRC'S INVOLVEMENT

IS A COVER FOR
ITS MILITARY AMBITIONS.

[NEWSCASTER #1]
NASA'S SAMSARA LIAISON
CONTINUES TO DENY

THAT THE MISSION
HAS BEEN COMPROMISED,

INSISTING THAT THE SAMSARA
MISSION'S INTERNATIONAL CREW

IS UNITED IN
THEIR GOALS AND FOCUS.

[BARACK OBAMA]
I BELIEVE WE CAN
SEND HUMANS TO ORBIT MARS

AND RETURN THEM
SAFELY TO EARTH.

AND A LANDING ON MARS
WILL FOLLOW.

AND I EXPECT
TO BE AROUND TO SEE IT.

[NEWSCASTER #3]
LIKE THE SCIENTIFIC MISSIONS
BASED IN ANTARCTICA,

SAMSARA EXISTS OUTSIDE
OF POLITICS.

AS THE WORLD MOURNS
THE DEATH OF MADAME ZHANG,

MISSION COMMANDER ROBERT LIU
HAS MET WITH ALL THE AGENCIES
INVOLVED

TO REASSURE THEM
THAT THE FIGHT WILL GO ON.

MAN WILL STEP FOOT ON MARS
BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR.

[MAN SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY
OVER PA]

[ELEVATOR DINGS]

-WHERE IS SHE?
-IN THE LAB.

-YOU LEFT HER THERE ALONE?
-SHE'S FINE.

BIANCA'S DOING
THE BLOOD WORK.

-SHE LIKES BIANCA.
-YEAH.

YEAH, SHE DOES.

OKAY, LET'S GO.

KAT.
KAT.

WHAT?
WHAT?

-DOCTOR WANTS
TO TALK TO US.
-NO!

-WITHOUT AMELIA.
-NO!

KAT... WE NEED TO HEAR
WHAT HE HAS TO SAY.

I'M SORRY.

YOU SAID IT WAS GONE.

WHAT I SAID WAS
THAT IT WAS IN REMISSION.

WE ALWAYS KNEW
THAT THERE WAS A CHANCE--

YOU SAID IT WAS GONE.

IT'S NEVER THAT SIMPLE.

EXPLAIN IT THEN, HUH?

FEEL FREE TO USE
SHORT WORDS.

-THE TUMORS HAVE SPREAD--
-TUMORS?

AS IN MORE THAN ONE?

WHAT ARE OUR OPTIONS?

CHEMO, SURGERY,
RADIATION, WHAT?

-I'M AFRAID--
-NONE OF THE ABOVE!

I'M GONNA BE IN THE LAB
WITH AMELIA.

[MAN ON PA]
ALL AVAILABLE PERSONNEL
TO THE ER.

KATHRYN'S BEEN UNDER
A LOT OF PRESSURE.

THE MISSION COMING UP.

I CAN IMAGINE.

AND NOW THIS.

IT MUST BE
VERY FRUSTRATING

TO COME SO CLOSE
AND THEN HAVE TO STEP ASIDE,

TO HAND OVER YOUR PLACE
IN HISTORY TO SOMEONE ELSE.

SHE'S NOT STEPPING ASIDE.

WE ALL AGREE.
KATHRYN'S GOING TO MARS.

HOW LONG?

THERE'S NO WAY OF TELLING,
YOU KNOW.

IN CASES LIKE THIS--

AMELIA.
HER NAME IS AMELIA!

SO THIS IS WHERE
THE PARTY IS.

DADDY!

WE'RE ALL DONE HERE,

BUT YOU MAY WANT TO SWING BY
THE CAFETERIA TO GET
SOME JUICE, OKAY?

'CAUSE I TOOK
A LOT OF BLOOD.

MM.
JUICE SOUNDS GOOD.

CRAS-RAS?
OH, I KNOW, I KNOW, I KNOW.

PICKLE JUICE
AND STRAINED SAUERKRAUT!

SOUND GOOD?

NO.
I WANT TO GO HOME.

I'M TIRED.

OH, BABY.

PIGGYBACK RIDE, HMM?

COME ON, COME ON,
COME ON, COME ON.

COME ON.
OH, YEAH!

- BYE, BIANCA.
-
BYE.

THANK YOU.

BEFORE I MET YOU,

THE ONLY CONSTELLATION I COULD
NAME WAS THE BIG DIPPER.

EVERYBODY STARTS
WITH THE BIG DIPPER,
AND ORION.

AMELIA ASKED ME
FOR A TELESCOPE FOR CHRISTMAS,

SO SHE COULD SEE YOU
ON MARS.

I'M THINKING
MAYBE YOU SHOULD GET IT
FOR HER BIRTHDAY INSTEAD.

DOCTOR SAID...

DOCTOR SAID THAT WE SHOULD
APPRECIATE THE TIME
WE HAVE WITH HER,

WHETHER IT'S THREE WEEKS
OR THREE YEARS.

THREE YEARS?
HE SAID THREE YEARS?

HE WAS THAT SPECIFIC?

-HE SAID THREE YEARS?
-IT COULD BE LONGER.

I WON'T BE BACK
FOR THREE YEARS.

IT COULD BE LONGER,
HE SAID.

AMELIA'S STRONG.
SHE'S A FIGHTER.

-SHE'S LIKE YOU!
-LIKE ME.

I MEAN, WHAT KIND OF MOTHER
ABANDONS HER DYING CHILD?

YOU ARE THE GREATEST MOTHER
A LITTLE GIRL COULD ASK FOR.

AND THE GREATEST WIFE.

YOU DON'T JUST BELONG TO US.

WHAT YOU'RE DOING,

IT'S GONNA MAKE THE WORLD
A BETTER PLACE.

NOT JUST FOR ME AND YOU
AND AMELIA BUT FOR EVERYONE.

IF THERE'S EVEN A MISSION.

YOU DON'T THINK
THE CHINESE WILL PULL OUT?

NO, BUT THE GUY
WHO SHOT THE PRESIDENT,
HE WAS AMERICAN.

THAT'S NOT ON THE NEWS.

YEAH, THEY'RE TRYING
TO EMBARGO IT.

THE PRC INTELLIGENCE AGENTS
TRACKED HIM DOWN TO HONG KONG,

AND TOOK HIM INTO CUSTODY
THIS MORNING.

HE CLAIMS
HE'S PART OF A GROUP

THAT DOESN'T WANT
HUMANITY TO LEAVE EARTH.

[SCOFFS]
IF GOD WANTED MAN TO FLY,

-HE WOULD HAVE
GIVEN HIM WINGS.
-EXACTLY.

WHAT A MESS.

IT'S ALL A MESS.

AND ALL WE'RE GOING TO DO
IS BRING OUR PROBLEMS WITH US.

MAN'S GREATEST EXPORT
TO THE UNIVERSE.

MY GRANDAD ONCE TOLD ME

THAT WHEN HE WAS 15,
IT WAS THE WORST YEAR
HE'S EVER LIVED THROUGH.

ROBERT KENNEDY
WAS JUST ASSASSINATED,

AND MARTIN LUTHER KING.

THE MY LAI MASSACRE
HAPPENED.

RUSSIAN TANKS WERE ROLLING
INTO CZECHOSLOVAKIA.

IT WAS JUST ONE GOD-AWFUL THING
AFTER ANOTHER,

AND THERE WAS NO REASON
TO BELIEVE THAT 1969

WOULD BE ANY BETTER.

AND THEN APOLLO 11
MADE IT TO THE MOON.

AND BUZZ ALDRIN
AND NEIL ARMSTRONG,

THEY LEFT THEIR FOOTPRINTS
IN THE MOON DUST.

AND MY GRANDAD SAID THAT
WHEN HE SAW THOSE FOOTPRINTS,

HE FELT LIKE CRYING,
BECAUSE HE KNEW THAT

EVERYTHING
WAS GONNA BE OKAY.

YOU NEED TO LEAVE
YOUR FOOTPRINTS
IN THE MARS DUST,

SO THAT EVERYONE WILL KNOW
IT'S GONNA BE OKAY,

THAT NO MATTER WHAT'S
HAPPENING RIGHT NOW,

THERE'S SOMETHING
BIGGER OUT THERE.

YOU NEED TO GIVE
PEOPLE HOPE.

[WOMAN]
I'M GOING TO ENHANCE THESE
BEAUTIFUL CHEEKBONES.

YOU ALL RIGHT, SWEETIE?

I DON'T FEEL SO GOOD.

YOU DON'T?

OH.

IT'S OKAY, BABY.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.

OH, THANKS.

[AMELIA WHIMPERING]

OH, DON'T CRY, SWEETHEART.
DO YOU NEED THE BATHROOM?

IT'S JUST OUT THE DOOR
TO THE RIGHT.

I'M SO SORRY.

YOU KNOW,
THE MEDS SHE'S ON, IT'S--

MY SON HAD A BAD STOMACH.

CANCER.

HE HAD CANCER.

MY BABY.

[WOMAN]
YOU NEED SOME ROSES
ON YOUR CHEEKS.

SIT.

ALL RIGHT,
ROSES COMING UP.

[CHUCKLES]
IT TICKLES.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

SISSY!

HOW ARE YOU,
MY LOVELY GIRL?

-OH MY.
-SAFARI NJEMA.

-OH.
-DID I SAY IT RIGHT?

PERFECTLY, MY DEAR.
I'LL SEE YOU OUT THERE.

CONSTANCE, CAN I SPEAK TO YOU
FOR A SECOND?

OH.

YOU LOOK BEAUTIFUL.

SAFARI NEM--

-NJEMA.
-NJEMA? WHAT?

IT MEANS "BON VOYAGE"
IN SWAHILI.

AHH.

WELL, LOOK AT YOU.

CONSTANCE GAVE ME ROSES.

ROSES IN HER CHEEKS.

CONSTANCE FELT THAT SHE WAS
LOOKING A LITTLE PALE.

I THREW UP
IN FRONT OF CONSTANCE.

WAS THIS BEFORE OR AFTER
SHE GAVE YOU THE ROSES?

-BEFORE.
-[CHUCKLES]

I'M THIRSTY.

YEAH, WHY DON'T
YOU GUYS GO GRAB SOMETHING
FROM THE SNACK CART?

YEAH? EVEN IF THE PRESS
CONFERENCE STARTS ON TIME,

YOU'VE GOT ABOUT
HALF AN HOUR.

-YOU WANT ANYTHING?
-NO.

I KNOW YOU DIDN'T
EAT BREAKFAST.

-WHAT'S BREAKFAST?
-THE MOST IMPORTANT
MEAL OF THE DAY.

THAT'S RIGHT.

GET YOU A MUFFIN.
COME ON.

[UNEARTHLY VOICES]

[APPLAUSE]

[MIC FEEDBACK,
MAN CLEARS THROAT]

[MAN]
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
PLEASE WELCOME

THE SAMSARA
INTERNATIONAL SPACE TEAM.

JEFF TAYLOR,
TORONTO GLOBE AND MAIL.

MY QUESTION'S FOR DR. LIU.

YOU HAVE A LONG HISTORY
IN HETEROGENEUS CATALYST
AND SURFACE SCIENCE.

YOU'VE PIONEERED WORK
WITH NANOTUBES,

NANOMATERIALS
AND NANOSTRUCTURES.

HOW WILL YOUR WORK
BE INTEGRATED INTO
THE MISSION?

IT IS THE MISSION.

WITHOUT NANOTECHNOLOGY
AND NANOMATERIALS,

THERE IS NO MARS COLONY.

WITHOUT ME,
THERE IS NO MISSION.

SO WAIT,
YOU MEAN I CAN STAY HOME
AND WATCH THE WORLD CUP?

[LAUGHTER]

HELLO, ELVIS.

HI, MYRA.
NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

[CLEARS THROAT]
MIRA MORGANTHAU.

IO9.COM.

YOU'LL BE IN CHARGE
OF COMMUNICATIONS

FOR THE SAMSARA MISSION,
IS THAT CORRECT?

THAT IS THE WORD
ON THE STREET.

[MIRA]
SO ESSENTIALLY
YOU'LL BE WIRING MARS.

DESIGNING THE COLONY'S
COMMUNICATION INFRASTRUCTURE,
YES.

AND ONCE I'M DONE,

YOU'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO SAY
IN SPACE

NO ONE CAN HEAR YOU SCREAM.

[LAUGHTER]

HIROKO OKAMURA, NHK.
DR. VOSS.

YOU'VE SAID THAT YOU WILL BE
CONDUCTING STUDIES

INTO THE NATURE
OF THE DARK MATTER PRINCIPLE.

YES, AND EXPANDING ON
THE GROUNDBREAKING WORK

CONDUCTED BY DAVID KLEIN.

[HIROKO]
CAN YOU EXPLAIN
TO MY VIEWERS

EXACTLY WHAT
DARK MATTER IS?

WELL, IF I KNEW THAT,
HIROKO,

I WOULDN'T HAVE TO
GO TO MARS.

[LAUGHTER]

AMINA LABIBI,
AL JAZEERA.

MY QUESTION IS FOR YOU,
DR. BIIRA.

YES.

YOUR ROLE ON
THIS MISSION IS...

MORE OBSERVATIONAL,
LESS ACTION, IS IT NOT?

ARE YOU ASKING ME
IF I'M WITH THE BAND?

[LAUGHTER]

FORGIVE ME MY LITTLE JOKE.

I UNDERSTAND THAT MY FUNCTION
MAY NOT SEEM AS IMPORTANT

AS THOSE OF MY COLLEAGUES.

I WON'T BE CONDUCTING
ATMOSPHERIC STUDIES
LIKE KATHRYN

OR DOING BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH
LIKE LUCIEN,

BUT I'D LIKE TO THINK
MY WORK ON GROUP DYNAMICS

COULD PROVE USEFUL
IN THE FUTURE.

I'LL BE EXPANDING ON
THE MARS 500 EXPERIMENTS

FROM 2009 TO 2011,

AND ON THE YEAR-LONG
HI-SEAS PROJECT OF 2015,

WHICH FOCUSED ON CREW MEMBER
COHESION AND PERFORMANCE.

MARS IS A LONG WAY AWAY,

AND THE QUARTERS WE'LL BE
SHARING ARE RATHER SMALL.

IT'S NOT LIKE WE CAN SEND
SOMEONE BACK TO EARTH

FOR A TIME-OUT
IF THEY GET CRANKY.

SPEAKING OF THAT,
DON'T YOU THINK,

GIVEN THE CONSIDERABLE
COST OF THIS MISSION,

THAT WE SHOULD BE FOCUSING
ON COLONIZATION,

NOT SIMPLY EXPLORING.

I THINK YOU SHOULD
CONSIDER US

MORE AS A LANDING PARTY

RATHER THAN
AN INVADING ARMY.

OUR GOALS ARE
NO LESS AMBITIOUS.

OUR COMMITMENT IS TOTAL

BUT OUR SCOPE
IS MORE FOCUSED.

WE ARE THERE
TO PREPARE THE WAY.

HMM.

WAS THE FAILURE OF
THE MARS FIRST INITIATIVE

FORCING A RE-EVALUTATION
OF THIS MISSION?

-DID SCIENCE FAIL US?
-SUZANNE,
S'IL TE PLAIT.

UM, THE MARS FIRST DISASTER

WAS NOT A FAILURE
OF SCIENCE.

IT WAS A FAILURE
OF TRUST.

AND YOU,
YOU TRUST THIS MISSION?

I DO.

WE'LL BE BACK.

[LAUGHTER]

ARE YOU REALLY GOING
TO LEAVE YOUR DYING CHILD

TO GO OFF
ON THIS ADVENTURE?

[UNEARTHLY WHOOSHING]

I'M SORRY, YOU'RE WITH?

DR. LIU.

PERHAPS YOU'D LIKE TO COMMENT
ON THE ALLEGATIONS

THAT YOUR AGENCY PLANS TO PLANT
THE CHINESE FLAG ON MARS

AND CLAIM ALL THE RESOURCES
FOR THE PRC ALONE?

YOU KNOW ABOUT THE ANTARCTICA
TREATY OF 1959.

IT PROHIBITS MILITARY
ACTIVITIES, MINERAL MINING,

AND DETONATING
NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS
IN ANTARCTICA.

TO DATE,
71 NATIONS HAVE SIGNED IT.

THE MARS TREATY
IS FASHIONED ON
THE VERY SAME PRINCIPLES.

THIS IS
A SCIENTIFIC MISSION

BEING CONDUCTED BY
AN INTERNATIONAL TEAM

FOR THE BENEFIT
OF ALL MANKIND.

YOU MEAN HUMANKIND.

HAVE I ANSWERED
YOUR QUESTION?

YEAH, BUT, UM...

JUST ONE THING:

AS FAR BACK AS 2015,

THE INTERNATIONAL ACADEMY
OF ASTRONAUTICS PROCLAIMED

THAT MINERAL RESOURCES
FOUND IN SPACE ARE
ACTUALLY GAME CHANGERS.

THEY EVEN WENT ON TO RECOMMEND
AS HOW WE CAN FURTHER LEVERAGE
THESE RESOURCES.

ARE YOU FAMILIAR
WITH THE STUDY?

I BELIEVE ONE
OF THE CO-EDITORS

WAS YOUR MENTOR
AT THE BEIJING INSTITUTE
OF TECHNOLOGY.

WHAT IS YOUR QUESTION?

JUST WHAT DOES ANTARCTICA HAVE
THAT ANYONE WOULD WANT?

PENGUINS?

BUT MARS?
IT'LL BE AN INTERGALACTIC
GOLD RUSH.

GONNA BE HARD
TO STAY HIGH-MINDED.

THIS IS WHAT'S WRONG
WITH CAPITALISM.

MY PARENTS HAVE COME
TO WATCH THE LAUNCH.

MY MOTHER IS COOKING TONIGHT.
ALL MY FAVORITES.

WILL YOU COME?

YOU AND JOHN AND AMELIA.

[KNOCKS ON DOOR]

I HAVE TO GO NOW, BABY.

I KNOW.

I MADE THIS FOR YOU.

THAT'S MARS.

I WAS GONNA DRAW SISSY
AND ELVIS AND DR. LIU,

AND LUCIEN-PASCAL
BUT I DIDN'T HAVE ROOM.

OH, THAT'S OKAY.

WE CAN PRETEND
THEY'RE VISITING THE OTHER
SIDE OF THE PLANET.

OKAY.

I WISH I COULD
GO WITH YOU.

I WANT TO FLOAT
THROUGH SPACE.

I'LL MAKE YOU A DEAL.

WHEN I COME HOME,
WE'LL FLOAT TOGETHER.

-REALLY?
-I PROMISE.

DADDY'S SAD
YOU'RE GOING AWAY.

HE SAYS HE'S HAPPY,
BUT I CAN TELL.

YOU ARE JUST GONNA
TAKE CARE OF HIM WHILE
I'M GONE, ALL RIGHT?

MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T
EAT ICE CREAM.

AND THAT HE SMILES
AT LEAST ONCE A DAY.

-HE REALLY
LIKES ICE CREAM.
-I KNOW.

BUT IT'S NOT GOOD FOR HIM,
SO REMIND HIM.

OKAY.

AND IF I'M NOT HERE,
GRANDMA WILL REMIND HIM.

GRANDMA?

IF I'M NOT HERE.

DON'T BE SAD IF I'M NOT HERE
WHEN YOU COME BACK.

I'LL MAKE YOU
LOTS OF PICTURES.

MOM?
YOU'RE SQUISHING ME.

SORRY, SORRY.

-SORRY, BABY.
-IT'S OKAY.

[CHIME]

MY RIDE'S HERE.

MOMMY'S GOTTA GO,
SWEETIE.

-OKAY.
-OKAY.

-PROMISE YOU'LL COME HOME?
-I PROMISE.

NOTHING'S GONNA STOP ME
FROM COMING HOME TO YOU.

[MAN]
IGNITION SEQUENCE STARTS.

SIX, FIVE, FOUR,

THREE, TWO, ONE.

[LOUD BOOM]

[MAN #2]
PREPARE FOR SEPARATION.
ONE.

[MAN #3]
CALL TO SAMSARA.

[MEN TALK INDISTINCTLY
OVER RADIO]

[MAN #4]
CREW BE ADVISED,

WE ARE READY TO INITIATE
THE DOCKING SEQUENCE.

[MEN TALK INDISTINCTLY
OVER RADIO]

[ELVIS]
ALL I'M SAYING IS,

WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT IT.

FOR 70 YEARS
WE'VE BEEN STUCK WITH

"ONE SMALL STEP FOR MAN,
ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND."

WHERE IS
THE POETRY IN THAT?

WHY ARE YOU WORRIED?

YOU'RE NOT GONNA BE THE FIRST
ONE OUT THE DOOR ANYWAY.

OKAY. SO WHAT ARE
YOU GONNA SAY?

I'LL THINK OF SOMETHING.

YEAH, SEE,
THAT'S WHAT I'M AFRAID OF.

REMEMBER YURI GAGARIN.

THE FIRST WORDS A HUMAN
EVER SPOKE IN SPACE.

HE SAID, "ORBITING EARTH
IN THIS SPACESHIP,

I SAW HOW BEAUTIFUL
OUR PLANET IS.

PEOPLE, LET'S PRESERVE
AND INCREASE ITS BEAUTY,
NOT DESTROY IT."

HE ALSO SAID,

"I LOOKED AND LOOKED,
BUT I DIDN'T SEE GOD."

YEAH, WELL, HE WAS
A GODLESS COMMUNIST.

-NO OFFENSE.
-NONE TAKEN.

ACTUALLY, HE WAS
A RUSSIAN ORTHODOX,

AND HE NEVER
SAID THOSE WORDS.

THAT QUOTE CAME
FROM A SPEECH KRUSCHEV MADE.

NOW HE WAS
A GODLESS COMMUNIST.

AMEN, BROTHER.

[WHISPERING VOICES]

[EXPLOSIONS]

[MAN]
MY CONTROLLER'S HERE,

LOOKING VERY CAREFULLY
AT THE SITUATION.

OBVIOUSLY A MAJOR
MALFUNCTION.

WE HAVE A REPORT FROM
THE FLIGHT DYNAMICS OFFICER

THAT THE VEHICLE
HAS EXPLODED.

FLIGHT DIRECTOR
CONFIRMS THAT.

WE ARE LOOKING AT CHECKING
WITH THE RECOVERY FORCES

TO SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE
AT THIS POINT.

[NEWSCASTER]
IF YOU'RE JUST JOINING US,
HERE'S WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR.

AT 2:57 PM,
THE SAMSARA SPACECRAFT,

RETURNING FROM
ITS THREE-YEAR MARS MISSION

SUFFERED WHAT NASA IS CALLING
"A CATASTROPHIC EVENT."

THE CRAFT SUFFERED
AN IN-FLIGHT BREAKDOWN

AS IT ENTERED
THE ATMOSPHERE,

LEAVING DEBRIS STRETCHING
ACROSS THREE STATES.

NASA OFFICIALS
HAVE CONFIRMED

THE ACCIDENT WAS
NOT SURVIVABLE.

[REPORTERS]
MR. VOSS!

[REPORTER]
MR. VOSS!
DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT--

THE CABLE WENT OUT.
I WENT ONLINE

AND NONE OF THE NEWS STATIONS
SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE ACCIDENT.

MAYBE IT WAS A MISTAKE,

SOME SORT OF A FREAK METEOR
SHOWER, YOU KNOW,

AND THEN SOME YAHOO
AT A NEWS DESK PANICKED

AND THEN HE WENT
ON THE AIR.

THEY JUST DON'T
WANT US TO KNOW!

SHE PROMISED
SHE'D COME HOME.

SHE SAID NOTHING ON EARTH COULD
STOP HER FROM COMING HOME.

I STAYED HERE FOR HER.

IT HURT SO MUCH,
BUT I STAYED HERE.

I KNOW, HONEY,
I KNOW YOU DID.

STOP IT!

TAKE A DEEP BREATH,
AMELIA.

REMEMBER
WHAT THE DOCTOR SAID?

-DEEP BREATHS.
-I DON'T CARE WHAT
THE DOCTOR SAID.

-HONEY--
-I WANT MOM!

AMELIA!
AMELIA!

AMELIA, HONEY?
AMELIA?

OH, MY GOD.

LOOK.
WHAT IS THIS?

CHECK IT OUT.

HEY, COME HERE!
HURRY UP!

OH, MY GOD.

[PHONE RINGING]

WAS IT A MISSILE?

A METEORITE?
A GODDAMN LIGHTNING BOLT
FROM HEAVEN?

I NEED SOME ANSWERS
RIGHT NOW.

YES, RIGHT NOW!

SIR, YOU NEED TO SEE THIS.

-WHERE'D YOU GET THIS IMAGE?
-THE SATELLITE FEED.

THERE'S A SATELLITE
ABOVE THE DEBRIS FIELD?

-BLIND IT.
-WE CAN'T DO THAT.

-DO IT!
-[PHONE RINGING]

SKY NEWS IS CALLING.

IGNORE IT, I SAID.

[PHONE RINGING]

-NO ONE TALKS
TO THE PRESS!
-IT'S GOOGLE.

NO ONE TALKS TO GOOGLE.

ELVIS-- DR. PRICE-JOHNSON
WORKED FOR THEM.

NO ONE TALKS TO GOOGLE,
NO ONE TALKS TO THE FAMILIES,

NO ONE TALKS TO NO ONE.

THIS NEVER HAPPENED.

ARE WE CLEAR?

-ARE WE CLEAR?
-YES, SIR.

[PHONE RINGING]

WHERE ARE YOU?

I NEED YOU IN NEVADA,
NOW.

GOOD MORNING.

YOU MISSED BREAKFAST,
BUT IT DIDN'T LOOK VERY TASTY.

POACHED EGG AND GRITS.

THIRSTY?

MY NAME IS WYATT ROBERTS.

I WORK FOR THE DIRECTOR
OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE.

YOU'VE NEVER HEARD OF US.

WE'RE THE GUYS
WHO BRIEF THE PRESIDENT

WHEN THERE ARE INCIDENTS
LIKE YOURS.

[COUGHS]

[WHISPERS]
INCIDENTS?

-I DON'T--
-AMNESIA.

SERIOUSLY?
THAT'S YOUR PLAY?

WHY ARE YOU
DRESSED LIKE THAT?

YOU'RE IN QUARANTINE.

DO I HAVE EBOLA?

WE'RE NOT SURE
WHAT'S GOING ON WITH YOU.

LET'S JUST SAY
YOU'RE IN QUARANTINE

UNTIL WE CAN FIGURE OUT
WHY YOU'RE STILL ALIVE.

IT'S KIND OF A MIRACLE.

[HISSING]

HA!
AAH.

OH, YEAH.

ELVIS WAS
LOOKING FOR YOU.

UH...

YOU MISSED
THE MORNING NEWS DUMP TODAY.

LET ME GUESS.
TERRORIST ATTACKS IN LONDON,

WORLD CURRENCY
IN FREEFALL,

MASS GRAVES FOUND
IN MEXICO.

ACTUALLY, IT WAS TERRORIST
ATTACKS IN PARIS.

YOU KNOW, IT'S
THE SAME EVERY DAY.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY
THEY GO THROUGH THE TROUBLE.

HOW'S AMELIA?

SHE'S ALIVE.

I DON'T KNOW HOW,
BUT SHE'S ALIVE.

YOU KNOW,
THERE ARE ALL SORTS OF STUDIES

SHOWING THAT PEOPLE CAN
STAVE OFF DEATH

WHEN THERE'S SOMETHING THEY'RE
WILLING TO STAY ALIVE FOR.

SHE'S WAITING FOR ME.

IT WON'T BE LONG NOW.

-IT WON'T BE LONG! OH!
-WE'RE GOING HOME.

-WE'RE GOING HOME.
-YEAH.

-WE'RE GOING HOME.
-WE'RE GOING HOME!

WE'RE GOING HOME.
WE'RE GOING HOME.

YES.

[WYATT]
WHAT'S THE LAST THING
YOU REMEMBER?

I WAS IN
MY DAUGHTER'S ROOM,

AND I WAS LOOKING
AT THE STARS.

I HAVE A DAUGHTER.

YOU WERE LOOKING
AT THE STARS.

OUT THE WINDOW?

ON THE WALLS.

SHE HAS POSTERS.

MY DAUGHTER, AMELIA,
SHE MUST BE WORRIED ABOUT ME.

I NEED TO GO SEE HER.

I HAVE TO GO SEE HER.

YOU'RE NOT
GOING ANYWHERE.

-WHAT--
-I TOLD YOU.

YOU'RE IN QUARANTINE.

WE HAVE SOME MORE TESTS
TO RUN ON YOU BEFORE
YOU CAN BE RELEASED.

I NEED TO SEE
MY LITTLE GIRL.

AND JOHN.

I NEED TO SEE JOHN.

I NEED TO SEE MY HUSBAND
AND MY LITTLE GIRL.

AND YOU WILL.

JUST AS SOON
AS WE KNOW IT'S SAFE.

IS THAT WHY
THE DOOR IS LOCKED?

IS THE DOOR LOCKED
TO KEEP ME SAFE?

NO, DR. VOSS.

IT'S LOCKED
TO KEEP US SAFE.

YOU WANT TO RUN
SOME TESTS, RIGHT?

LET'S DO IT.

WHERE ARE MY CLOTHES?

YOU DON'T HAVE
ANY CLOTHES.

WE FOUND YOU NAKED.

FOUND ME...

NOW YOU LISTEN TO ME,
YOU SON OF A BITCH.

THE ONLY THING
THAT'S KEPT MY DAUGHTER ALIVE

THESE PAST THREE YEARS
IS THE THOUGHT OF SEEING
HER MOTHER AGAIN,

AND THIS AFTERNOON,
SHE SAW HER BLOW UP
ON TELEVISION.

I'VE GOT A DEAD WIFE
AND A KID IN THE HOSPITAL,

AND THE PHONE NUMBER
OF CNN'S SCIENCE REPORTER
ON MY SPEED DIAL.

NOW IF I DON'T GET SOME ANSWERS
PRETTY DAMN QUICK,

I'M GONNA START
MAKING SOME NOISE.

OH, NATIONAL SECURITY?

DON'T PULL THAT HOMELAND
SECURITY CRAP ON ME.

IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE CLEARANCE
TO GIVE ME SOME ANSWERS,

YOU'D BETTER FIND ME
SOMEBODY WHO DOES!

WE'RE GONNA BE MEASURING
THE ELECTRICAL ACTIVITY
OF YOUR BRAIN

USING THESE ELECTRODES.

YEAH, I'M FAMILIAR
WITH THE EEG TECHNOLOGY.

OKAY. AND THIS AFTERNOON
WE'RE GONNA BE DOING A PET SCAN

AND ESTABLISHING
BASELINES,

AND COMPARE WHAT WE GET TO
THE TESTS NASA HAS ON FILE.

[BELL CHIMES]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

MAPPING THE PLEASURE
CENTERS OF MY BRAIN.

WE ALREADY KNOW
WHERE THEY ARE.

TRUE.

BUT THERE'S NOTHING LIKE--
OOH.

PRIMARY RESEARCH.

PERV.

[MAN]
OKAY, LET'S BEGIN.

STATE YOUR NAME.

DR. KATHRYN VOSS.

WHOA.

CAN YOU TELL
FROM THE BRAIN ACTIVITY

IF SHE'S FAKING AMNESIA?

-HUH.
-WHAT?

THIS IS OFF-THE-CHARTS
WEIRD.

WEIRD HOW?

WEIRD AS IN IMPOSSIBLE.

WHAT KIND OF QUESTIONS
WERE YOU ASKING HER?

WE RAN THE SCAN THREE TIMES
WITH THE SAME RESULTS.

-AND?
-EVERY TIME SHE SHOWED
THE SAME PATTERN OF ACTIVITY.

IT'S LIKE SHE HAS
COMPLETE CONTROL OF
HER SUBCONSCIOUS MIND.

THEN SHE'S FAKING
THE AMNESIA.

FAKING?
NO.

POST-TRAUMATIC AMNESIA'S
VERY COMMON.

BUT FORGET ABOUT
THE BIZARRE BRAIN WAVES.

HER BLOOD WORK
IS WHAT'S REALLY STRANGE.

WE TESTED HER BLOOD
AND FOUND 71 AMINO ACIDS.

71?

CAN YOU JUST TELL ME
WHAT THAT MEANS?

TWO WEEKS BEFORE
SHE WENT TO MARS,

KATHRYN VOSS HAD ONLY
21 AMINO ACIDS IN HER BODY.

SO?

AMINO ACIDS, THEY'RE--
THEY DON'T--

HUMAN BEINGS
ONLY HAVE 21.

YOU'RE SAYING
SHE'S NOT HUMAN.

NOT ANYMORE.

PLUS SIGN.

STAR.

SQUARE.

STAR.

WAVY LINES.

STAR, STAR, STAR,
STAR, STAR!

STAR!

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]

[MUFFLED MUSIC]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[CLEARS THROAT]

HOW ARE
THE OXYGEN LEVELS?

DOWN TO 19%.

AND, UM,
HOW'S THE NIGHT VISION?

WON'T BE A PROBLEM
UNLESS IT GOES BELOW 17%.

BUT THE SOONER YOU GET
THOSE OXYGEN GENERATORS ONLINE,
THE BETTER.

MM-HMM.

YOU KNOW,
I KEEP THINKING...

IF I LOOK AT
THOSE PLANTS LONG ENOUGH,

ONE OF THEM IS GOING
TO MORPH INTO A CIGARETTE.

YOU SMOKE?

I'M FRENCH.
OF COURSE I SMOKE.

WELL, NOT FOR YEARS,
BUT I STILL REMEMBER THE TASTE.

MAYBE YOU CAN ASK ROBERT
TO HAVE HIS NANITES

WHIP UP SOME CIGARETTES.

CIGARETTES, HUH?

AND WHAT WOULD YOU
ASK HIM TO WHIP UP?

-HMM?
-MM-HMM.

UM...

CHOCOLATE.

CHOCOLATE.
MM, I LIKE THAT.

[WHISPERING VOICES]

AMELIA:
I'M WAITING FOR YOU.

[WHISPERING VOICES]

AMELIA:
IT HURTS SO MUCH!

NO! NO!

MOM!

KATHRYN.

CALM DOWN, CALM DOWN.

I'M OKAY.
JUST DIZZY.

OH, NO.
YOU'VE GOT A FEVER.

-I'M FINE.
-ROBERT.

CAN YOU COME
TO THE GREENHOUSE?

KATHRYN IS NOT WELL.

CALM DOWN, CALM DOWN.

[BEEP, WHIRRING]

HELLO, AGENT ROBERTS.

[ROBERTS]
HOW DID YOU KNOW
IT WAS ME?

YOUR, UH, SCENT
IS DISTINCTIVE.

YOU HESITATED.
YOU WERE GONNA SAY
SOMETHING ELSE.

I WAS GONNA SAY "YOUR AURA"
BUT I THOUGHT

THAT MIGHT BE
TOO WOO-WOO FOR YOU.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

WHAT DOES
MY AURA LOOK LIKE?

IT'S PINK AND SPARKLY,
LIKE A UNICORN'S.

THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

YOU'RE NOT WEARING
YOUR GEAR.

DOES THAT MEAN
I'M NOT CONTAGIOUS?

I WANT TO SEE MY DAUGHTER.

WHAT LESSON HAVE YOU
BROUGHT BACK TO HER?

WHAT DID YOU LEARN
THAT YOU COULDN'T HAVE
LEARNED ON EARTH?

I WANT TO SEE
MY DAUGHTER.

I'D LIKE WORLD PEACE, BUT IT
ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN TODAY.

YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE
ISN'T GONNA HAPPEN TODAY?

ME PLAYING GUINEA PIG.

I WANT
TO SEE MY DAUGHTER.

ABOVE MY PAY GRADE.

THEN GET OUT!

I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE
WITH QUESTIONS, DR. VOSS.

AND SOME OF THOSE PEOPLE
WITH QUESTIONS,

THEY'RE NOT AS NICE
AS I AM.

WELL, ARE THEY THE ONES
THAT BLEW THE SAMSARA?

WHO SAID IT BLEW UP?

WHAT DO YOU REMEMBER?

EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL
ABOARD THE CRAFT.

EVERYONE WAS EXCITED.

ELVIS?
ELVIS WAS TAKING SELFIES.

AND THEN WE SAW
THIS STREAK OF LIGHT

COMING RIGHT AT US.

I THOUGHT IT WAS A UFO.

IT'S NOT WHAT I REMEMBER,
AGENT ROBERTS.

IT'S WHAT I'M LEARNING NOW.

YOU'VE KEPT ME
PRETTY SEQUESTERED,

BUT I CAN HEAR
THE PEOPLE TALKING.

I CAN HEAR THE FEAR
IN THEIR VOICES.

THERE WEREN'T SUPPOSED
TO BE SURVIVORS, WERE THERE?

YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD CLAIM
CATASTROPHIC VEHICLE FAILURE

AND ALL WOULD BE FINE?

BUT NOW THE CHINESE DIPLOMATS
ARE DEMANDING TO KNOW

WHAT REALLY HAPPENED.

I WANT TO SEE
MY DAUGHTER.

I'LL MAKE A CALL.

YOU DO THAT.
YEAH.

[BEEP, WHIRRING]

SIR,
WE'VE GOT A PROBLEM.

SHE REMEMBERS
THE MISSILE.

THAT'S UNFORTUNATE.

WE HAVE
THE CONTINGENCY COVERED.

-ACTIVATE SHAN.
-SIR, ARE YOU SURE--

OH, YOU HAVE
SUCH A GOOD HEART, WYATT.

BUT YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER

THAT THIS-- THIS WOMAN
IS AN ABOMINATION.

THE WHOLE MISSION
IS AN ABOMINATION,

AN ACT OF GLOBAL HUBRIS.

AN INSULT TO THE CREATOR!

THE WHOLE ISSUE IS THE WHOLE
DOMINION OVER THIS LIFE!

THIS EARTH!

NOWHERE IS IT WRITTEN
THAT WE MUST

SPREAD OUR SEED
ACROSS THIS UNIVERSE!

ACTIVATE SHAN...

OR DO IT YOURSELF!

WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU LOOKING AT?

GOOD EVENING,
DR. VOSS.

LOOKS LIKE WE'RE IN
FOR A TREAT TONIGHT.

CHICKEN TERIYAKI
AND SOME RICE.

BUT I'M A VEGETARIAN.

OH, DARN.

WELL, LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY
SCREWED UP THE MEAL ORDERS.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

WOULD HAVE BEEN A LOT EASIER
HAD YOU COOPERATED.

WHAT'S IN THAT NEEDLE?

IT'S A LITTLE SOMETHING
TO HELP WITH THOSE MEMORIES.

AH, THE MISSILE.

THIS IS ABOUT THE MISSILE.

WHO SHOT THAT MISSILE?

WRONG QUESTION,
KATHRYN.

[GRUNTS]

AAH!

[STRAINING]

-WHY?
-YOU WOULDN'T
UNDERSTAND WHY.

TOO FILLED WITH
YOUR FAITH IN TECHNOLOGY,

WORSHIPING A FALSE GOD.

WHY CAN'T YOU DIE?

BECAUSE I AM SUPPOSED
TO DO SOMETHING.

IT'S NOT MY TIME.

[WHEEZING]

[MAN]
STOP!

YOU'VE BEEN LYING TO ME!

YOU'RE NEVER GONNA LET ME SEE
MY FAMILY AGAIN!

YOU'RE NEVER GONNA
LET ME GO!

IF YOU LEAVE, YOU WILL BE
PUTTING LIVES INTO DANGER!

YOUR HUSBAND'S,
YOUR DAUGHTER'S!

THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW
I'M ALIVE, DO THEY?

NO, THEY DON'T.

NOW DO YOU REALLY WANT
YOUR LITTLE GIRL TO KNOW

THAT HER MOMMY WENT TO MARS
AND CAME BACK A MONSTER?

STAY, AND WE CAN ANSWER
YOUR QUESTIONS TOGETHER.

[BELL DINGS]

I DON'T THINK SO.

[YELLS]

[PANTING]

[DOORBELL RINGS]

YES?

JOHN VOSS?
WYATT ROBERTS.

I GOT IT.

I WANT TO SEE
A WARRANT.

CALL YOUR LAWYER
IF YOU WANT,

BUT WE'RE TAKING
THE LAPTOP WITH US.

-I WANT A RECEIPT.
-OF COURSE. POPE?

YOU WANT TO TELL ME WHY
YOU'RE TAKING MY COMPUTER?

BECAUSE WE HAVE RECORDS
OF TRANSMISSIONS

YOUR WIFE SENT
TO YOUR DAUGHTER

THAT MENTION SOMETHING STRANGE
AND WONDERFUL GOING ON.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA
WHAT THAT MEANT?

STRANGE AND WONDERFUL?

YOU MEAN HER DREAMS?

DREAMS?

WHAT DREAMS?

KAT TOLD AMELIA
SHE WAS HAVING THESE DREAMS,

THAT SHE WAS SWIMMING IN
A RIVER OF STARS AND GALAXIES.

-IS THAT CODE?
-CODE?

YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME.

YOU THINK MY WIFE
WAS SENDING MESSAGES IN CODE.

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

HOW COME NO ONE WILL TELL ME
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SAMSARA?

THERE WAS THAT ONE SPECIAL
REPORT AND THEN NOTHING.

SPECIAL REPORT.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE
TALKING ABOUT.

YOU'RE LYING.

AND YOU HAVE BEEN LYING
ALL ALONG.

I HAVE.

YEAH, YOU,
THE GOVERNMENT,

FOR ALL I KNOW
THE DAMN ILLUMINATI!

SOMEONE HAS A VESTED INTEREST
IN KEEPING THE TRUTH FROM US.

IF YOU'RE LOOKING TO TECHNOLOGY
TO SAVE YOU, JOHN,

YOU'RE LOOKING
IN THE WRONG DIRECTION.

WHY ARE THE CHINESE
SUDDENLY RATTLING SABERS?

WHY HAVE OUR DIPLOMATS
BEEN EXPELLED FROM BEIJING?

WHY ARE PUNDITS SUDDENLY
RETHINKING THE WHOLE SPACE
PROGRAM?

BECAUSE IT'S AN OBSCENE
WASTE OF MONEY

WHEN PEOPLE RIGHT HERE
ON EARTH ARE GOING HUNGRY,

AND CHILDREN
ARE DYING OF CANCER.

[GRUNTS]

GET OUT OF MY HOUSE.

DON'T TRY TO LEAVE.

POPE?

-HEY, GIRL!
-HI.

-IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU.
-GOOD TO SEE YOU.
HOW ARE YOU DOING?

-I'M DOING FINE.
-GOOD.

-SEE YOU WENT SHOPPING.
-YES.

-WHAT'D YOU GET?
-CHECK THIS OUT.

IS THIS REAL LEATHER?

-I KNOW, RIGHT?
-YEAH, IT'S SO GOOD.

OH, AND THEN...

SO THIS MATERIAL
IS SUPER, SUPER SOFT, RIGHT?

VERY SOFT.

WELL, YOU DIDN'T
BUY ME ONE.

HEY!

-GOD, LOOK WHAT YOU DID!
-PLEASE.

FORGIVE ME.

[WINDS BLOWING]

[VOICES WHISPERING]

[WINDS BLOWING]

-OH, MY GOD, ARE YOU OKAY?
-SORRY, ARE YOU?

OH, I'M SORRY.
I'M FINE.

I'M SORRY.

HEY, SHE JUST
TOOK YOUR STUFF!

IT'S JUST STUFF.

SHE OBVIOUSLY NEEDED IT
MORE THAN I DID.

SHOULD WE ORDER?

[CHUCKLES]

[DEBRIS FALLING]

YOU KNOW, YOU SHOULDN'T
BE TOUCHING THAT WITH
YOUR BARE HANDS.

AFRAID IT'S
A MARTIAN VIRUS?

I'LL TAKE MY CHANCES.

OOH.

HUH.

LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING
YOU COULD PICK UP
IN THE ARIZONA DESERT.

LIKE A LITTLE BIT
LIKE HOME.

DID YOU EVER READ
WILLIAM BLAKE IN SCHOOL?

SURE.

"TYGER, TYGER,
BURNING BRIGHT.

IN THE FORESTS
OF THE NIGHT."

I NEVER LIKED
THAT ONE MUCH.

BUT "AUGURIES OF INNOCENCE,"

"TO SEE A WORLD IN
A GRAIN OF SAND,

AND A HEAVEN
IN A WILDFLOWER,

HOLD INFINITY
IN THE PALM OF YOUR HAND,

AND ETERNITY IN AN HOUR."

THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.

MY WIFE TRANSLATED
ALL OF WILLIAM BLAKE'S WORK.

YOU DIDN'T TELL ME
YOU WERE MARRIED.

MY EX-WIFE.

SHE WAS POLITICALLY
UNRELIABLE

AND I WANTED
TO GO TO MARS.

AND NOW HERE I AM,
QUOTING POETRY

BY A 19TH CENTURY
ENGLISH MYSTIC.

WHEN I WAS A KID,

MY MOTHER WON A CRUISE
TO AUSTRALIA FOR FOUR.

IT WAS ONE OF THOSE CONTESTS
WHERE YOU FILL OUT A FORM,

AND YOU FORGET ABOUT IT,
BECAUSE NO ONE EVER WINS.

-SOMEBODY HAS TO WIN.
-RIGHT?

MY MOM WON.

IT WAS A TRIP FOR FOUR,
SO IT WAS ME, MY PARENTS,

AND MY MOTHER'S
BEST FRIEND, JOY,

WHO WAS ALWAYS UP
FOR AN ADVENTURE.

AND THE FIRST NIGHT
WE WERE AT SEA,

I WENT OUT ON THE DECK
TO LOOK AT THE STARS.

EVEN THEN I KNEW
I WANTED TO BE AN ASTRONAUT.

AND I REALIZED,
I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE
ANY OF THE STARS.

I'D NEVER BEEN
IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE
BEFORE.

I KNEW THE CONSTELLATIONS
WERE DIFFERENT,

BUT TO LOOK UP AT THE SKY
AND NOT RECOGNIZE

-ANY OF THE STARS WAS...
-DISORIENTING?

MORE OF A REMINDER

THAT YOU CAN'T SEE
ALL SIDES OF THE UNIVERSE

LOOKING AT IT
FROM ONE PERSPECTIVE.

AND IF WE SAW EARTH
FROM SPACE...

THAT WOULD CHANGE EVERYTHING.

I WONDER WHAT NEWTON
WOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THIS,

YOU KNOW,
OF US BEING HERE.

BUILDING A HABITAT
ON MARS IS PROOF

THAT HUMANITY
CAN LIFE ON ANOTHER PLANET?

HE WOULD HAVE BEEN
FIRST IN LINE TO BUY A TICKET.

AND HE WOULDN'T HAVE MINDED
NOT COMING BACK.

YOU BETCHA.
YOU BETCHA.

[DEBRIS FALLING]

[HOMELESS WOMAN]
YOU NEED HELP, HON?

OH, NO, I'M...

YES.

YES, I DO.

DO YOU HAVE ANY SHOES?

OH, LET ME THINK.

THESE LOOK TO BE
ABOUT YOUR SIZE.

THANK YOU.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I CAN'T PAY YOU FOR ANYTHING.

DID I ASK YOU FOR MONEY?

I'M SORRY.
I-- I--

I'M JUST NOT GOOD AT BEING
THE ONE ASKING FOR HELP.

I'M SORRY.

IT'S JUST-- I JUST FEEL
OUT OF CONTROL.

[LAUGHS]

YOU THINK YOU'RE IN CONTROL?

THE MORE TIGHTLY
YOU HOLD ONTO THINGS,

THE MORE THEY SLIP
THROUGH YOUR FINGERS.

IT'S LIKE
TRYING TO STOP TIME,

AND HOLD OFF DEATH.

AMELIA.

NO, HON,
MY NAME IS EVANGELINE.

EVANGELINE, LIKE THE POEM.

THANK YOU.

YOU SAID THAT ALREADY.

WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER.

AND GOD KNOWS NONE OF US
WILL MAKE IT OUT OF HERE ALIVE.

WE'RE ALL IN THIS...
TOGETHER.

AGAIN, THANKS, EVERYONE,
FOR SHARING TONIGHT.
IT WAS GOOD.

YOU LOOK FAMILIAR.

HAVE YOU BEEN HERE BEFORE?

NO, IT'S MY FIRST TIME.

ANYTHING TO SHARE?

NOT TONIGHT.
JUST NOT READY.

WELL, TAKE YOUR TIME.

THANK YOU.

HANG OUT.

ENJOY THE CAKE AND COFFEE.

-THE COFFEE IS REALLY GOOD.
-OH, REALLY?

THE CAKES ARE KIND OF STALE.

HMM.

[LUCIEN]
CHOCOLATE AND CAFFEINE.

YOU'VE PICKED UP
SOME BAD HABITS,
SINCE YOU'VE GOT BACK.

LUCIEN.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING?

I FEEL GREAT.

YOU'RE RELIEVED?

YEAH, I THOUGH
I'D BECOME A MONSTER.

BECAUSE YOU SURVIVED?

NOW I CAN SENSE THINGS.
I CAN DO THINGS.

I CAN DO EVERYTHING
I WANT TO DO,

EXCEPT THE THING
I WANT TO DO THE MOST.

SEE AMELIA AGAIN.

YOU'LL SEE AMELIA AGAIN.

MAYBE NOT IN YOUR TIME FRAME,
BUT IN TIME.

SOUNDS LIKE
SOMETHING SISSY WOULD SAY.

I KNOW I'LL SEE AMELIA AGAIN.
I KNOW IT.

AND I KNOW THAT'S
THE REASON WHY I'M STILL HERE.

BUT WHY ELSE?

WHY? "WHY" IS THE MOST USELESS
QUESTION IN THE UNIVERSE.

AND YET, IT IS THE QUESTION
WE ARE BORN ASKING.

AND IT'S ONLY ANSWERED
WHEN WE DIE.

SO YOU KNOW THE ANSWER,

NOW THAT YOU'RE DEAD?

I KNOW THAT WE SHOULD
NOT FEAR THIS.

AS FOR THE REST,

YOUR GUESS IS AS GOOD AS MINE.

REMEMBER WHAT WE SAW WHEN
WE FLEW AWAY FROM EARTH?

REMEMBER HOW EVEN ROBERT
WAS MOVED TO POETRY?

YEAH, AND ELVIS SAID
THAT HE FELT LIKE HE
OVERDOSED ON ECSTASY.

YEAH, WELL, ELVIS...

SO IF A SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCE
CAN CAUSE A COGNITIVE SHIFT,

WHY CAN'T IT CAUSE A PHYSICAL
EVOLUTION, AS WELL?

[CAMERA SNAPPING]

SOMEONE JUST TOOK YOUR PICTURE.

GO NOW.

LUCIEN.

I'M JUST NOT SURE, MAN.

YEAH, REMAINS TO BE SEEN.

TARGET'S BEEN SPOTTED,
HEADED WEST

WEST.

SHE'S HEADED
TO HER HOUSE.

WE'LL GET THERE FIRST.

LET'S HIT IT!

COME ON. LET'S GO.
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING ON?

LET'S HIT IT!

OH GOD.

WHAT HAVE I DONE?

WHAT HAVE I DONE?

[CRYING]

[MAN]
LOST?

SEEMS KIND OF SILLY
THAT YOU CAN FIND YOUR
WAY HOME FROM MARS,

AND THEN GET LOST
IN YOUR OWN HOMETOWN.

LOST.

THAT'S A GOOD WORD
TO DESCRIBE HOW I FEEL.
I'M LOST.

YOU HEARD WHAT THEY'RE SAYING
ABOUT OUR MISSION,

THAT IT WAS ALL FOR NOTHING,

THAT IT COST A FORTUNE
AND EVERYBODY DIED.

EXCEPT I DIDN'T.

AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH.

YOU HAVE TO TELL PEOPLE
WHY WE WENT TO MARS.

PEOPLE THINK THAT IT WAS
TO FIND HUMANITY A NEW HOME.

IT WASN'T?

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I THINK-- I THINK
THE REAL PURPOSE

WAS TO LOOK BACK
AT OUR WORLD AND SEE IT.

REALLY SEE IT, YOU KNOW?

THE HOME OF ALL HUMANITY.
NO BORDERS. NO BARRIERS.
JUST US.

THAT'S WHAT I THINK.

EXACTLY,

AND YOU CAN SHARE
THAT MESSAGE.

I CAN'T PREACH TO ANYONE.

I'M NOT JESUS, OR MOHAMMAD,
OR BUDDHA.

OR NEO.

BUT WHO'S TALKING ABOUT
PREACHING?

I'M TALKING ABOUT SHOWING,
NOT TELLING.

YOU ALREADY KNOW
WHAT YOU CAN DO.

YOU'VE ALREADY FELT IT.

WE'VE COME SO FAR
AS A SPECIES,

BUT SOMETIMES, WE GET LOST.

AND EVERY SO OFTEN,
SOMEONE SPECIAL COMES ALONG

TO HELP US GET BACK
ON OUR PATH,

SOMEONE WHO CAN SEE
THE BIGGER PICTURE

THAT WE'RE ALL ONE,
UNDER THE SUN.

THAT'S KIND OF ABSTRACT.

NOT SURE PEOPLE WOULD THINK
A HALLMARK CARD SENTIMENT

WAS WORTH THE BAZILLION DOLLARS
THAT IT TOOK US TO GO TO MARS

AND GET US BACK.

WELL, ME BACK.

MM.

BUT WHY ME?
I'M NOT SPECIAL.

OH, COME ON.
YOU DON'T BELIEVE THAT.

I KNOW HOW HARD YOU WORKED
TO PUT YOURSELF THROUGH SCHOOL.

I KNOW WHAT YOU SACRIFICED
TO TRAIN FOR THIS MISSION.

IF YOU WEREN'T SPECIAL, YOU
WOULD HAVE QUIT A LONG TIME AGO.

BUT HERE'S THE QUESTION:

WHAT WOULD HUMANITY PAY
FOR PEACE?

PEACE OF MIND.

NO. PEACE.

AS IN THE ABSENCE
OF AGGRESSION,

THE CESSATION OF HOSTILITIES,
THE END OF CONFLICT.

WOULD THAT BE WORTH
THE BAZILLION DOLLARS

IT TOOK TO TAKE US TO MARS
AND BRING YOU BACK?

YOU KNOW IT WOULD.

YOU CAN REVEAL THAT.

-ALL BY YOURSELF
IN ONE HOUR.
-WHAT?

YOU'RE NOT JUST DEAD,
YOU'RE CRAZY.

-[SIGHS]
-ONE HOUR?

KATHRYN, I'M
A COMMUNICATIONS GUY, RIGHT?

I KNOW NETWORKS.

RIGHT NOW, HUMANITY IS
ONE BIG MESS OF INDIVIDUALS

ACTING AS IF THEY'RE THE ONLY
ONES ON THE PLANET,

ACTING WITH NO REGARD
TO HOW THEIR ACTIONS
AFFECT OTHER PEOPLE.

THEY'RE DISCONNECTED.

YOU CAN CHANGE THAT.

WELL, IF I CAN--

I CAN TAP INTO
THIS POWER,

THEN I CAN SAVE AMELIA.

RIGHT?

RIGHT?

I CAN'T?

I CAN SAVE HUMANITY,
BUT I CAN'T SAVE
MY LITTLE GIRL?

WHO MADE THAT RULE?

YOU HAVE TO LET GO
OF YOUR ANGER.

WELL I HAVE A RIGHT
TO MY ANGER.

YOU KNOW, I AM ANGRY BECAUSE
MY LITTLE GIRL IS DYING.

AND I'VE GOT 71 AMINO ACIDS
FIZZING IN MY BODY,

AND I CAN MIND MELD
SEVEN BILLION PEOPLE,

BUT I CAN'T SAVE
MY LITTLE GIRL?

NO!

NO!

AMELIA'S ALREADY
MADE HER CHOICE.

NOW YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE.

WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE?

IT'S TOO HARD.

WHEN HAS ANYTHING BEEN
TOO HARD FOR YOU?

I'M ON MY WAY
TO THE HOSPITAL

TO GRIEVE
WITH MY DYING DAUGHTER

OVER THE DEATH OF HER MOTHER,

SO I SUGGEST YOU GET
THE HELL OUT OF HERE

MR. VOSS, I UNDERSTAND
HOW YOU MUST FEEL.

I DON'T THINK YOU DO.

YOUR FAMILY'S IN DANGER.

I NEED YOU TO BACK INSIDE,
UNTIL WE ASSESS THE SITUATION.

-NO.
-SIR, I MUST INSIST.

HEY, I SERVED IN IRAQ.

I SURVIVED
THE BATTLE OF FALLUJAH,

YOU THINK YOU CAN STOP ME FROM
SEEING MY DYING DAUGHTER?

NOT ON YOUR BEST DAY.

SIR, WHAT DO YOU
WANT US TO DO?

STAY HERE AND WAIT
FOR THE WIFE,

AND IF SHE COMES BACK,
TAKE HER INTO CUSTODY.

I'LL BE BACK AT THE HOSPITAL.

OKAY.

-[CAR DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]
-[CAR STARTS]

[CAR ACCELERATES]

[LINE RINGING]

AGENT POPE, I BELIEVE YOU'VE
BEEN LOOKING FOR ME.

[KATHRYN]
I NEED HELP.

I'M KATHRYN VOSS.

HOW DO YOU KNOW MY NAME?

I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW.

SO WHAT, IS THAT ONE
OF YOUR NEW ABILITIES?

YOU'RE PSYCHIC?

I GUESS SO.
DON'T BE SCARED.

I NEED A RIDE TO THE HOSPITAL
TO SEE MY LITTLE GIRL.

[KATHRYN]
I'M NOT GOING TO HURT YOU.

YOU DON'T WANT
TO KILL ME, ELI.

YOU'RE NOT ANGRY AT ME.

YOU'RE MAD BECAUSE YOUR WIFE
WANTS A DIVORCE AND YOU DON'T.

YOU THINK SHE'S SLEEPING
WITH YOUR NEIGHBOR,

BUT SHE ISN'T.

AND YOU LOVE HER SO MUCH,
YOU'RE AFRAID TO TELL HER

HOW ANGRY YOU ARE, BECAUSE
THEN SHE MIGHT NEVER SPEAK
TO YOU AGAIN.

SO YOU'RE ANGRY AT ME.

BUT I FORGIVE YOU.

WILL YOU FORGIVE ME?

I FORGIVE YOU.

WE NEED TO GO NOW, ELI.

THERE'S SOMETHING I NEED TO DO,
AND I DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME.

[GUN SHOT]

[GASPING]

[YELLING]

YOU KNOW...

THE REASON WHY YOU CAN'T
REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED ON MARS,

IS BECAUSE WHAT HAPPENED,
DIDN'T HAPPEN ON MARS.

IT HAPPENED ON THE WAY THERE.

I WAS WONDERING WHEN
YOU WERE GOING TO SHOW UP.

TIME IS A RIVER.

WHAT DID I SEE?

WHAT DID I SEE
THAT CAUSED ALL THIS?

YOU'VE ALREADY REMEMBERED.

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

WE WERE TALKING ABOUT WHAT WE
WERE GOING TO SAY WHEN

WE STEPPED OUT ON MARS
FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME.

AND YOU QUOTED YURI GAGARIN,
"THE EARTH IS SO BEAUTIFUL."

YEAH.

THE PLANET IS SO BEAUTIFUL.

WE SAW THE EARTH.

OUT THE STARBOARD WINDOW.

IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL.

SO BLUE, SO PEACEFUL.

AND YOU THOUGHT?

AND I THOUGHT, "WE'RE ALL ONE
ON THIS SMALL BLUE PLANET.

THERE ARE NO BOUNDARIES.
THERE ARE NO NATIONS.

IT'S JUST US...

UNDER THE SUN."

I AM NO ASTROPHYSICIST
LIKE SOME PEOPLE I KNOW,

BUT I ONCE HEARD SOMEONE SAY
THAT THE UNIFYING PRINCIPLE

IN ALL THE UNIVERSE,
THE GLUE THAT PUTS IT
ALL TOGETHER,

IS LOVE.

LOVE MAKES THE WORLD
GO ROUND?

TIME IS RUNNING OUT,
KATHRYN.

A LUNATIC NAMED CREIGHTON BOWE
HAS CLAIMED RESPONSIBILITY

FOR THE EXPLOSION
ON THE SAMSARA,

AND HAS ADMITTED KILLING
THE CHINESE PRESIDENT
THREE YEARS AGO.

WHY?

HE LEFT A MANIFESTO.

I DID MY THESIS ON
THE MANIFESTO OF MAD MEN

AND IT NEVER REALLY MATTERS
WHY THEY DO THINGS.

LEFT.

STIRRED UP A HORNET'S NEST
AND THEN DISAPPEARED,

TO AVOID GETTING STUNG.

THE PRC HAS NUKES, KATHRYN.

GO AWAY. YOU'RE A FIGMENT
OF MY IMAGINATION, GO.

ALBERT EINSTEIN SAID
THAT IMAGINATION IS

MORE IMPORTANT THAN KNOWLEDGE.

I KNOW. I USED TO HAVE A T-SHIRT
WITH THAT QUOTE PRINTED ON IT.

A WORLD WITHOUT WAR.

YOU CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN.

BUT IF YOU WAIT,
YOU WILL BE TOO LATE.

I AM A FIGMENT
OF MY OWN IMAGINATION,

A GHOST WALKING AIMLESSLY
AMONGST THE LIVING.

HOW CAN I SAVE THE WORLD?

I CAN'T EVEN SAVE MY DAUGHTER.

OUR GREATEST FEAR
IS NOT THAT WE ARE POWERLESS,

BUT THAT WE ARE POWERFUL
BEYOND MEASURE.

YOU SOUND LIKE
A FORTUNE COOKIE.

YOU'RE DEFLECTING.

YOU KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.

YOU KNOW WHY YOU WERE
GIVEN THIS TASK

AND THE POWER TO COMPLETE IT.

POWER? POWER HAS ONLY
LED ME TO PAIN.

THIS UNIVERSE
HAS MADE A MISTAKE.

THERE ARE NO MISTAKES,
ONLY REMINDERS.

IT'S EASY TO GIVE UP,
TO FALL INTO DESPAIR.

IT IS ONLY WHEN WE ENDURE,
THAT WE FIND IT IN OURSELVES
TO ACHIEVE GREATNESS.

BUT I AM ALL ALONE.
I HAVE NO ONE LEFT.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

JOHN.
OH MY GOD.

JOHN?

YOU GUYS DON'T HAVE
THAT MUCH TIME.

ROBERTS WILL BE BACK.

JOHN.

OH MY GOD, JOHN.

I THOUGHT I'D NEVER
SEE YOU AGAIN.

THEY TOLD ME YOU WERE DEAD.

THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WASN'T
SAFE FOR ME TO BE WITH YOU,

THAT I WOULD CONTAMINATE YOU
OR INFECT YOU.

WE SAW THE SAMSARA
BLOW UP.

WE SAW IT ON TV.

AND THEN NASA OFFICIALS SAID
THERE WERE NO SURVIVORS.

THEN THEY PULLED EVERY SCRAP
OF FOOTAGE OFF THE AIR,

THEY SAID THAT
IT NEVER HAPPENED,

THAT IT WAS A MISTAKE,
THAT WE MUST HAVE IMAGINED IT.

I'M SO SORRY.

I DIDN'T WANT TO BELIEVE IT,
BUT WE SAW IT BLOW UP.

WE SAW IT!

JOHN, THERE'S SOMETHING
I HAVE TO DO.

THAT'S THE REASON I SURVIVED
THIS ACCIDENT.

IF YOU'RE HERE,
THERE HAS TO BE A REASON.

I KNOW YOU'RE PART
OF SOMETHING BIGGER
THAN MY OWN UNDERSTANDING.

-I MISSED YOU.
-I MISSED YOU, TOO.

EVERY HOUR YOU WERE GONE.

IF YOU HADN'T GONE,
YOU WOULDN'T BE THE WOMAN
I FELL IN LOVE WITH,

AND THAT I LOVE.

JOHN.

I'M NOT STRONG.
I'M NOT STRONG AT ALL.

WHEN AMELIA GOT SICK,

I FELT LIKE MY WHOLE WORLD
WAS FALLING APART.

I FELT SO SELFISH FOR LEAVING,

BUT I JUST COULDN'T SIT HERE
AND WATCH HER DIE.

SO I RAN AND I RAN
ALL THE WAY TO MARS.

I CANNOT FORGIVE
MYSELF FOR THAT.

BUT I FORGIVE YOU KATHRYN.

AMELIA FORGIVES YOU.

YOU NEED TO FORGIVE YOURSELF.

OH, AMELIA.

NOW GO,

SAY GOODBYE TO AMELIA,

AND GO DO WHAT
YOU HAVE TO DO.

WHY'D YOU HAVE TO SURVIVE?

IF YOU'D JUST DIED,
EVERYTHING WOULD HAVE
BEEN FINE.

BUT NO, YOU HAD TO GIVE
THE PEOPLE A MIRACLE

SO THEY'D KEEP PUTTING
THEIR FAITH IN TECHNOLOGY.

WE DON'T HAVE
TO SAVE OURSELVES.
SCIENCE WILL SAVE US.

WE DON'T HAVE TO CLEAN UP
OUR OCEANS,

BECAUSE WE CAN JUST MOVE
ON TO ANOTHER PLANET.

YOU SURVIVED,

AND THAT WAS A MIRACLE.

WELL, I DON'T BELIEVE
IN MIRACLES.

LOOK AT ME WHEN
I'M TALKIN' TO YOU!

I'M SORRY.

WERE YOU HAVING
A MOMENT THERE?

IS IT REALLY YOU?

YES, BEAUTIFUL.

IT'S ME.

YOU CAME HOME FROM MARS.

I DID.
I PROMISED, DIDN'T I?

I HAD A DREAM.

YOU TOOK ME TO A RIVER OF STARS
AND WE DIVED IN AND SWAM,

AND THERE WAS GALAXIES FLOATING
PAST US LIKE RAINBOW FISH.

WE CAUGHT THEM AND PETTED THEM,

AND THEN WE THREW THEM BACK

AND THEN WE DANCED IN
THE MIDDLE OF A CLOUD OF STARS.

IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL.

YOU'RE SO BEAUTIFUL.

YOU'RE CRYING.

WHY ARE YOU CRYING?

SOMETIMES YOU SEE SOMETHING
SO PRECIOUS,

YOU JUST WANT TO HOLD ONTO IT
FOR AS LONG AS YOU CAN.

[ROBERTS]
IS SHE IN THERE?

YES, DR. VOSS IS INSIDE.

SHE WHAT? JUST SHOWED UP
HERE AND WALTZED IN?

SHE WANTED TO SPEAK
TO HER DAUGHTER.

I FOUND JOHN VOSS IN HER ROOM.

YOU HAVE SOMETHING
TO DO WITH THAT?

THERE'S A REASON
SHE'S ALIVE, SIR.

SHE GOT TO YOU.

WHAT IF SHE'S NOT CRAZY?
WHAT IF WE'RE THE CRAZY ONES?

WHAT IF WHAT WE'RE DOING
IS WRONG?

YOU'RE IN MY WAY.

I DON'T WANT
TO HURT YOU, SIR.

SHAME.

I CAN'T SAY
THE SAME ABOUT YOU.

[AMELIA]
DON'T BE SAD.

I WISH...

WHAT, BABY?
WHAT DO YOU WISH?

I HEARD THE NURSES TALKING.

YEAH?

THEY'RE SCARED THERE'S
GOING TO BE A WAR,

BECAUSE THE CHINESE
ASTRONAUT BURNED UP.

SO, I WISH FOR THERE
NOT TO BE A WAR.

I WISH THAT TOMORROW,
EVERYONE WOULD WAKE UP
AND BE HAPPY.

-AND NOT BE MAD ANY MORE.
-YEAH?

AND WHAT ABOUT GETTING WELL?
WOULDN'T YOU WISH FOR THAT?

NO.

-I THINK YOU ONLY
GET ONE WISH.
-YEAH?

AND YOU'D GIVE UP YOUR WISH
FOR EVERYBODY ELSE?

I'D GIVE MY LIFE FOR THEM.

YEAH?

ISN'T THAT WHAT YOU'RE DOING?

WHAT?
COME HERE.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[ROBERTS]
IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

[KATHRYN]
HELP ME SHOW IT TO EVERYONE.

[ROBERTS]
HOW?

[AMELIA]
JUST HOLD ON.
IT WON'T HURT.

[KATHRYN]
WE ARE ALL ONE.
