[ominous music playing.]
[man.]
I don't know.
Boss is pushing my team the hardest.
Wants the harvesters running doubles.
[woman.]
You think he's hard on you because we're not from here? I doubt he gives a shit where we're from.
The proles on my shift do.
Don't like having an extro for a manager.
Fletcher, have you made friends with any local kids? Yeah.
Been hanging out with a few of them.
Talk kind of strange.
But other than that, they seem cool.
- They're all modded like me.
- What about Sedgewick? - Has he made any friends? - [Fletcher.]
I, um - I don't really know, Mom.
- [father.]
Right.
Of course, he hasn't.
Fletcher, can you keep an eye on him for me? - You know how he is.
- [father.]
He needs to learn to adapt.
[mother.]
You're too hard on him.
Poor kid's the only unmodded 16-year-old for a hundred light-years.
- [dishes clatter.]
- [father.]
Bullshit.
It's about character or lack of it.
- No amount of modding would fix that.
- [mother.]
Not his fault.
Dumped onto a frostbit, fucking colony world.
[father scoffs.]
Not his fault.
[mother.]
I know he can be difficult, but maybe if you [father.]
Sedgewick's always had it too easy.
How is he gonna learn to adapt if he doesn't even try? [Sedgewick.]
I'm coming with you.
- Not a good idea, Sedge.
- What, you think I'm afraid? No, I just don't Look, I know everything's so fucking easy for you.
But don't worry about me.
I can take care of myself.
Look, I know it bothers you for some reason that "Some reason"? You know what it feels like, always having my little brother be better than me? - Not my fault.
- Then we move to this fucking ice ball, and every kid's modded like you.
"Different.
" That's what the grownups say, but they mean "better.
" Fine.
If you're coming, hurry up and get dressed.
[dramatic music playing.]
[machine whirring.]

Whales don't like the machines.
The sound.
Too much.
Once they are off the ice, then [speaks in foreign language.]
Frostwhales, up.

Okay? Whales break ice for breathing.
They won't stop till they breach.
