What are you doing? Exiting the problem.

- Yes.
We are dying.
I have four children aboard the mothership.
Barely living in embryonic tubes.
- I fear I shall never see them again.
- to loose your family is unimaginable.
Thanks you for listening Renée.
Navigation is unable to correct the interface problem with the ID drives.
The mothership is still lock on a low grade descent.
"Shabra!" I will deal with navigation.
You will initiate an override on all power grids.
Renée you're still here? Yes, still waiting for meeting with Zo'or.
So in the mean time I thought: Why not pratice a little industrial espionage.
It's not a good idea, Things are little tensed around here right now.
Technical difficulties what not and you my friend I've nearly wanna you welcome.

Reverse thrusters are activated.
We're leveling at.
All systems are back on line.
We're now climbing at .

Back to stationary orbit coordinates.
Then we has retain the cause of the systems failure? No not yet.
- I believe it's something internal.
- In a word: sabotage.
Quarantine the ship and shut down the portals.
No human leaves here until I have a satisfactory answer.
Hey! Welcome back.
What happened? - Where am I? - Easy.
The Mothership has major turbulency.
You took a nasty peal.
Probably got a concussion.
Just keep your eyes closed all right? I'm fine, I'm just I'm just very cold.
Why do I am so cold cold Renée, hanging on, Doctor's here right? She's bleeding internaly , going into shock.
She must sustain a *** trauma injury.
You'll be find Renée, you hear me? You'll be fine.
She's critical.
You're concern for Miss Palmer is very touching Major.
Your interrogations will just have to wait.
- I'm only doing my duty.
- That's half your problem, you're the *** you enjoy it.
All Companion protectors please report to main quarters immediatly.
Duty calls Major.
Notify me when she regains consciousness.
"Umbena" To loyalty! You have a problem Kincaid? No problem, I'm just not drinking.
Not an option.
We talking taelon Tequila here.
Tradition.
Whenever our loyalty comes into question.
Drink up.
Zo'or's waiting for my assessment.
You can't get drunk if your CVI are functioning right? At while lieutenant Mali drowned up this ritual for year.
What's your point Major? Ritual's outdated.
You know your CVIs are failing.
**** artificial mine set he need your own integrity.
Doesn't it true loyalty spring from free choice? It does for me.
Well aren't you one smart smug son of a bitch? I guess you feel you can shut your mouth off because you never had undergoing implant.
Da'an hided you.
So now you're to good to drink with us, is that is? - You're taking this way too personnaly Lt.
- You bet your stripes I am.
I will not let you denigrate the memory of protectors like Mali.
Six mounth ago when Mali was still alive he'd kick your but from here to the bridge.
But I guess he's left that pleasure to me.
Is that your or the Tequila talking Lt? Me.
Anyboby else here want to question my loyalty? Help me! No! Somebody help me.
- Help me.
- Renee.
Liam.
- I'm enlace - Hold on.
Don't let go.
Don't let go.
No! Renee! Renee! From what you had describe, it would appear that Miss Palmer was transported by a magnetic energy aberration.
Ok! Where whould this magnetic energy aberration take her? That, I cannot tell you.
Then give me the *** of the ****.
The blueprints.
The mothersip must be following some pre-programed instructions.
Tell me what they are.
The mothership is in a perpetual state of evolution.
She has been programed for think for herself.
But only within the program that will serve the mission protocol.
The mission protocol? As you have stated, we are wasting time.
This will help access any tissues seam within the ship.
Coupled with the use of a DNA scanner, you should be able to locate Miss Palmer.
Relax.
You've got an internal bleeder.
And tensing up won't do it any good.
A little Taelon core energy absorption now should do the trick.
Work wonders for me.
I use that burn over 75% of my body I wasn't smoked, I was broken one apart ready to be shuttle in a bodybag into the mother.
I'm sorry, I'm I'm yammering.
I haven't had a decent compagny for a while.
Who are you ? A compagnion protector Miss Palmer.
Reassigned to serve a majesty.
I I don't understand.
The mothership.
She chose me as I've chosen you.
The hell you have, you have no right to keep me here.
Release me.
I can't.
- Why not ? - Because because I need you.
There are shadow forces at work within the synod Miss Palmer.
The mothership knows this.
Then she had chosen me as her protector her gardian, her emissary to *** the Taelons back on their proper course.
- You, chose a human.
- Yes me, a human being.
Resconstitued in a *** of a Taelon but never the less, a human being.
Who can't go alone anymore hiding out of these walls under the skin.
Avoid of any human bonder, connection, I can I need you Miss Palmer.
For sanity sake.
Is that simple? Alright.
But first I need you to do something for me.
Renee?! I'm here.
Got your signal.
- She's safe.
She wanted you to know that.
Who are you? Have the guts to show yourself.
First the weapon.
On the table.
You wore such a pain Major.
Malley, Lieutenant Malley! It's impossible, the shuttle bombing.
I was there, you're dead.
Negative Kincaid.
My *** has been removed.
And I'm still on act of duty.
I've just been reassigned.
I knew I was a dead man as soon as I heave that bomb clear of the *** shuttle.
Anyway Portal my *** back to the main deck as the mother to go.
Then she project back together ***.
- Mother? You mean the mothership.
Hey Jack, your funeral.
Much appreciated it.
I especialy like that 21 gun salute.
You see that ****, That wasn't mine.
No Sir.
I was a holographic ruse for my remains scelling off into the sunset.
- I can't believe this.
- Neither could I.
You know what save me Kincaid? My implant, a damn CVI.
The relay frequency is encrypted in Taelon, right? Well so my mind got alter during the blast.
And the mother ship, she think she save one of her own.
Also now she thinks you're a Taelon.
No I guess better like I'm real or not too.
Her wants her needs her operation protocols her distress signals.
We've bonding Major.
Yeah, she allows you to engage in what? Kidnapping.
I told you that woman is safe damn it! Sabotage too.
I was in operation on meltdown this morning.
It's part of an on-going campaign to rid the synod of any bad apples.
Beginning with Zo'or.
Why you're staging a coup? No, mother is.
The taelon sole purpose was to come here for peace.
To engage a mutualy beneficial relationship for humanity.
That was the mothership was for.
That was his prime mission But now, it's spends crapped.
Because of a cowardly few.
What has even this have to do with Renée Palmer? She needs help.
You can't give it to her.
I can.
I know you care about her, but she will be well looked after.
- I assure you that.
- Well, if she doesn't be? Good night Kincaid.
Wait! Let me see her first, I got to know if she's safe.
Please! Liam! - Renee, you're ok? - Yes.
- Sure? - Yes I'm fine now.
I just Renee! Liam! Liam! You didn't have to be this way.
This is earlier, Major Kincaid meets with this phantom suspect suspected of kidnapping Miss Palmer.
The audio scrambled but a retinal scan identify him as Lt Jack Malley, a former Companion protector.
- Former? - Yes.
Killed in the line of duty.
You may recall the bombing attemps severals month ago on a taelon embassy? Lieutenant Malley was General Taffence protector.
Of course.
And now Miss Palmer is his hostage.
Not a very wise choise on his part.
Unless she is a willing one.
Mobilize surch for this phantom Companion protector.
This is not a very pleasant assignment but there's a traitor a saboteur a phantom protector hiding within the walls of the mothership.
Renee Palmer an other suspect as saboteur is with him.
We believe it is Lt Jack Malley.
- Malley is dead Sandoval.
I was there that day at the embassy.
I saw him blown clear across the room.
We have evidence to the contrary Roberts.
He is alive despite his wounds and we believe he is being aided in a campaign of subversion.
May the fall of protector.
So it is time for another test of loyalty.
I believe we start with you Major.
You're right Major.
I do enjoy my job.
I'm curious.
Is there any part of you that's still even vaguely human.
I trust you had a positive sleep.
These walls have eyes.
They don't have ears Miss Palmer Son of a My mother, got rest your soul but resent that remark.
Are you alright? Yeah, sure, I was enjoyed that little shock therapy in the afternoon.
It's like they coming for you Lt.
It's more thanks to you.
I was a ghost an enigma until I was foolished enough to honor your request.
Come on.
If you really think you could hide inside these walls for ever you already gone over the edge.
Show respect! I've saved you for death.
And at least you could do a *** *** gratitude for one moment, and try to see the big picture.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
But sometimes, I think you'd give me up in our pit.
Would you? I'm trying to do the right thing here Miss Palmer.
Give the opportunity.
Your friend, major Kincaid he understands that.
Otherwise he would have briefed Sandoval inform by now.
What are you talking about? Oh God.
He's strong.
He may make it trough the first session.
Maybe the second.
You call yourself a human! How can't you just sit there and watch? Turn the power off.
Oh.
Well, I see You need me now.
Please, anything you want.
Anything I want.
What I want is for you to stay here with me.
Alright.
Right I will stay with you.
Now shut it down.
I need to focus, would you monitor the ** searching ** please.
Yeah, just hurry.
Yes, the first I I have to flash at the nanobots that Sandoval has injected in him.
He's use make a little bit.
That a small price to pay.
Done.
Power's off.
End of interrogation.
What? Sir! Sensors have been actived in a subobs deck we may have located our fugitives.
I'm on my way.
We'll continue it Major.
Secure the deck.
Browse for any energy aberration in the walls, ceilings even the floors.
If you see either suspect shoot to kill.
It's your choise Renee.
As you can see I'm still the little *cool pedant* mother.
I'm sorry.
Why do you come back? Not that I have any illusions.
To save myself, yes.
But also try to understand what what it is you think you can accomplish here.
Would you *** my skin for a moment Miss Palmer? I was a Companion protector.
I swore to give my life to protect the Taelons.
Though in retrospect I was after protect an Evil.
And my reward for such a blind loyalty a resurrection from the dead, and a new assignment.
The keys to the mothership.
Mine, alone with a a terrible responsability.
You give me not have had a choice back then but you do now.
You did no have a choice.
When guard *** the building heart.
Because that is exactly what the mothership is.
An organ tempting on rescuing a species.
So I guess mother knows best.
You know despite what mother thinks I'm still a human being.
I know.
I'm more even now than ever was.
I am.
I mean despite by *** appearence.
I am not a monster.
I am not a monster.
I see that now.
And it's Renée.
Jack.
Will you follow me? Please.
Double up the patrols, seal off every corridor above and below the obsdeck.
- Go.
- Yes Sir.
Lt.
Roberts, what is this? We don't torture or kill one of our own agent Sandoval.
And we don't defy direct orders from Zo'or.
We? What do you mean "We"? Apparently you're the only protector who's CVI still working on overkill.
- That's irrelevant, and this, is treason.
- No.
This is a crime against humanity.
Fine.
Take him, he's yours.
You'll explain to Zo'or.
- Thanks.
- Save it I saw on a revenge.
Listen this gonna sound bizarre but Sandoval was ******.
Lt Malley is alive.
What? The mothership revived him.
Pulled him inside the walls.
He's doing her biding now, so he says.
Look, I don't what to make about that.
All I know is, he's holding a friend of mine as hostage.
We need to find them before Zo'or does.
Suffer the litlle children to come onto me.
Never beat them not.
Actually children is a less *** What you're looking at is the future of the taelons species.
They aren't born Taelons? Taelons at the most fragile It's ok.
We are protected here on this deck called the womb.
If there's any straight radiation it'll destroy them.
I thought the Taelons were all barren.
It's half truth.
Some are still physicaly able to procreate, but psychologically they can't make that happen.
The **** they would win immortality They may as well be barren.
And these.
embryos? Mother would love them to develop.
Pass their embryonic stage.
Mentaly Taelons console their core energy crisis done with the the last Taelon barren.
So the mothership is programmed to protect them.
As if they were her own.
Yes.
But even after wear enough core energy to infuse them she will still abstain thinks being what they are.
You mean with Zo'or leaving the synod.
Mission protocol didn't call for Taelon domination Renée? It called for Tealon human cooperation.
Implants, mind control, genetic manipulation, an army of human drones these were not on the agenda.
So why would mother want *** want to interest such a world? Why? Jack, you are limiting Zo'or's options this far, the operation of the mothersips goes but you and the mothership need to do something that would increase your leverage.
Allow you to move in for the kill.
The old ways round.
No place like home? - Hey, I'm picking up Renée's DNA.
- They were here.
Jack Malley Lieutenant indestructible.
He's completely flipped out, hasn't it? That a call I'd rather not make right now.
Is that an access shuttle on trough there? Yeah, I check it out.
At last we meet.
I do not believe we have properly introduced.
Oh we have.
I pin the mellow *** once.
I'm Companion protector Lt John J.
Malley.
And I've come here to serve your exit paper Zo'or.
Even found unfit to command.
You a human, dare to juge me.
No the mothership is judged you for your willful and continuing degradation of the Taelon mission protocol.
I think it's time you step down.
And, if I refuse? The malfunctions will continue throughout the ship.
Top to bottom right down to the womb.
And I'd certainly wouldn't *** you within the synod, no would it? Resign Zo'or.
And save yourself from the embarrassments.
- Zo'or, we've completed the sweep!! - The saboteur, eliminate him.
All unit, suspect located in sub-bridge access level.
Respond.
- Renée, you're ok? - Yeah.
Hurry! Come with me.
- Where we go? - For a ride.
Taelons? Unborn, stasis.
Amazing.
No, no, no, NO.
Jack? It's an accident.
It was an accident.
I'd never kill a Taelon ever.
I'd just took it from the womb to get Zo'or to back down.
NO! You don't understand.
I just tried to set things right.
That's all I tried to do.
Jack, what's happening? - Mother don't! Don't.
No.
Please.
I'm not your ennemy.
I've not shot to him mother.
Zo'or's doing.
Zo'or's doing out mind.
Zo'or! Mothership turns against him.
Look out! Get down! What's happening I think the mothership is reading as he's Taelon anymore.
Treating like a virus.
- We have to help him.
- No we can't.
We got to get out of here Renée.
- No.
- We're on the line OF fire, come on! - No I won't abandon him.
But you go.
Tell to Henry to portal Jack to earth base hospital.
That's his only chance.
Renée! Mother **** You know the king's *** I don't wanna live through this.
It's ok, it's ok.
I got you, it's ok.
Renée it's too late.
I'm dead already.
I've just been *** I've just been home for a while.
- No - Enough for me Listen to me listen to me.
Promise me Let you and Kincaid to save my CVI.
It's our only link to the mother.
Renée it's the only way you'll save us.
You can save all of us.
I promise.
Promised.
I beg you forgive me forgive me.
Why? Why? Malley wasn't a murderer Dan'an.
He was serving as the mothership's protector.
He superseded his authority Liam.
No she gave it to him.
He was her sword her conscience.
The gardian of your primary mission protocol whatever that is or was.
I will admit that Lt Malley's communion with the motership.
- Has given me pose for reflexions.
- Look, I'm tired of dancing with you.
I'm tired of the games denials, manipulations.
I'm tired of bearing people Da'an.
What's the big secret? Why the hell did you come here? And what the hell do you want from us? We want you to save us Liam.
Three millennia ago my ancestors realized their fate.
We needed to find a species with the intellectual promise to solve our energy dilemma.
We searched a thousand years.
And then one of our exploratory vessels found Earth.
- Ma'el - Correct.
So we built the mothership and gave her a primary mission to come here and preserve us once we all enter the death stasis.
Preserve you for what? For your evolution.
However long it takes.
She will enter Earth orbit and we will place our only hope for survival with humanity trusting your boundless drive and imagination will one day do what we cannot.
Prevent our entire species from passing into oblivion.
So it's why you need us to save your lives.
You've known for thousands of years.
Yes.
And still, you seek to dominate and destroy us.
If only you had believed in us.
Then we would have compassion for you.
What are you doing? Exiting the problem.
The mothership being an organically engineered life form, is designed to regenerate itself.
This is our stasis wing.
Those who have reachrd the critical threshold are placed here.
- So you're rationing core energy.
- Yes.

He is alive despite his wounds and we believe he is being aided in a campaign of subversion.
May the fall of protector.
So it is time for another test of loyalty.
I believe we start with you Major.
You're right Major.
I do enjoy my job.
I'm curious.
Is there any part of you that's still even vaguely human.
I trust you had a positive sleep.
These walls have eyes.
They don't have ears Miss Palmer Son of a My mother, got rest your soul but resent that remark.
Are you alright? Yeah, sure, I was enjoyed that little shock therapy in the afternoon.
It's like they coming for you Lt.
It's more thanks to you.
I was a ghost an enigma until I was foolished enough to honor your request.
Come on.
If you really think you could hide inside these walls for ever you already gone over the edge.
Show respect! I've saved you for death.
And at least you could do a *** *** gratitude for one moment, and try to see the big picture.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
But sometimes, I think you'd give me up in our pit.
Would you? I'm trying to do the right thing here Miss Palmer.
Give the opportunity.
Your friend, major Kincaid he understands that.
Otherwise he would have briefed Sandoval inform by now.
What are you talking about? Oh God.
He's strong.
He may make it trough the first session.
Maybe the second.
You call yourself a human! How can't you just sit there and watch? Turn the power off.
Oh.
Well, I see You need me now.
Please, anything you want.
Anything I want.
What I want is for you to stay here with me.
Alright.
Right I will stay with you.
Now shut it down.
I need to focus, would you monitor the ** searching ** please.
Yeah, just hurry.
Yes, the first I I have to flash at the nanobots that Sandoval has injected in him.
He's use make a little bit.
That a small price to pay.
Done.
Power's off.
End of interrogation.
What? Sir! Sensors have been actived in a subobs deck we may have located our fugitives.
I'm on my way.
We'll continue it Major.
Secure the deck.
Browse for any energy aberration in the walls, ceilings even the floors.
If you see either suspect shoot to kill.
It's your choise Renee.
As you can see I'm still the little *cool pedant* mother.
I'm sorry.
Why do you come back? Not that I have any illusions.
To save myself, yes.
But also try to understand what what it is you think you can accomplish here.
Would you *** my skin for a moment Miss Palmer? I was a Companion protector.
I swore to give my life to protect the Taelons.
Though in retrospect I was after protect an Evil.
And my reward for such a blind loyalty a resurrection from the dead, and a new assignment.
The keys to the mothership.
Mine, alone with a a terrible responsability.
You give me not have had a choice back then but you do now.
You did no have a choice.
When guard *** the building heart.
Because that is exactly what the mothership is.
An organ tempting on rescuing a species.
So I guess mother knows best.
You know despite what mother thinks I'm still a human being.
I know.
I'm more even now than ever was.
I am.
I mean despite by *** appearence.
I am not a monster.
I am not a monster.
I see that now.
And it's Renée.
Jack.
Will you follow me? Please.
Double up the patrols, seal off every corridor above and below the obsdeck.
- Go.
- Yes Sir.
Lt.
Roberts, what is this? We don't torture or kill one of our own agent Sandoval.
And we don't defy direct orders from Zo'or.
We? What do you mean "We"? Apparently you're the only protector who's CVI still working on overkill.
- That's irrelevant, and this, is treason.
- No.
This is a crime against humanity.
Fine.
Take him, he's yours.
You'll explain to Zo'or.
- Thanks.
- Save it I saw on a revenge.
Listen this gonna sound bizarre but Sandoval was ******.
Lt Malley is alive.
What? The mothership revived him.
Pulled him inside the walls.
He's doing her biding now, so he says.
Look, I don't what to make about that.
All I know is, he's holding a friend of mine as hostage.
We need to find them before Zo'or does.
Suffer the litlle children to come onto me.
Never beat them not.
Actually children is a less *** What you're looking at is the future of the taelons species.
They aren't born Taelons? Taelons at the most fragile It's ok.
We are protected here on this deck called the womb.
If there's any straight radiation it'll destroy them.
I thought the Taelons were all barren.
It's half truth.
Some are still physicaly able to procreate, but psychologically they can't make that happen.
The **** they would win immortality They may as well be barren.
And these.
embryos? Mother would love them to develop.
Pass their embryonic stage.
Mentaly Taelons console their core energy crisis done with the the last Taelon barren.
So the mothership is programmed to protect them.
As if they were her own.
Yes.
But even after wear enough core energy to infuse them she will still abstain thinks being what they are.
You mean with Zo'or leaving the synod.
Mission protocol didn't call for Taelon domination Renée? It called for Tealon human cooperation.
Implants, mind control, genetic manipulation, an army of human drones these were not on the agenda.
So why would mother want *** want to interest such a world? Why? Jack, you are limiting Zo'or's options this far, the operation of the mothersips goes but you and the mothership need to do something that would increase your leverage.
Allow you to move in for the kill.
The old ways round.
No place like home? - Hey, I'm picking up Renée's DNA.
- They were here.
Jack Malley Lieutenant indestructible.
He's completely flipped out, hasn't it? That a call I'd rather not make right now.
Is that an access shuttle on trough there? Yeah, I check it out.
At last we meet.
I do not believe we have properly introduced.
Oh we have.
I pin the mellow *** once.
I'm Companion protector Lt John J.
Malley.
And I've come here to serve your exit paper Zo'or.
Even found unfit to command.
You a human, dare to juge me.
No the mothership is judged you for your willful and continuing degradation of the Taelon mission protocol.
I think it's time you step down.
And, if I refuse? The malfunctions will continue throughout the ship.
Top to bottom right down to the womb.
And I'd certainly wouldn't *** you within the synod, no would it? Resign Zo'or.
And save yourself from the embarrassments.
- Zo'or, we've completed the sweep!! - The saboteur, eliminate him.
All unit, suspect located in sub-bridge access level.
Respond.
- Renée, you're ok? - Yeah.
Hurry! Come with me.
- Where we go? - For a ride.
Taelons? Unborn, stasis.
Amazing.
No, no, no, NO.
Jack? It's an accident.
It was an accident.
I'd never kill a Taelon ever.
I'd just took it from the womb to get Zo'or to back down.
NO! You don't understand.
I just tried to set things right.
That's all I tried to do.
Jack, what's happening? - Mother don't! Don't.
No.
Please.
I'm not your ennemy.
I've not shot to him mother.
Zo'or's doing.
Zo'or's doing out mind.
Zo'or! Mothership turns against him.
Look out! Get down! What's happening I think the mothership is reading as he's Taelon anymore.
Treating like a virus.
- We have to help him.
- No we can't.
We got to get out of here Renée.
- No.
- We're on the line OF fire, come on! - No I won't abandon him.
But you go.
Tell to Henry to portal Jack to earth base hospital.
That's his only chance.
Renée! Mother **** You know the king's *** I don't wanna live through this.
It's ok, it's ok.
I got you, it's ok.
Renée it's too late.
I'm dead already.
I've just been *** I've just been home for a while.
- No - Enough for me Listen to me listen to me.
Promise me Let you and Kincaid to save my CVI.
It's our only link to the mother.
Renée it's the only way you'll save us.
You can save all of us.
I promise.
Promised.
I beg you forgive me forgive me.
Why? Why? Malley wasn't a murderer Dan'an.
He was serving as the mothership's protector.
He superseded his authority Liam.
No she gave it to him.
He was her sword her conscience.
The gardian of your primary mission protocol whatever that is or was.
I will admit that Lt Malley's communion with the motership.
- Has given me pose for reflexions.
- Look, I'm tired of dancing with you.
I'm tired of the games denials, manipulations.
I'm tired of bearing people Da'an.
What's the big secret? Why the hell did you come here? And what the hell do you want from us? We want you to save us Liam.
Three millennia ago my ancestors realized their fate.
We needed to find a species with the intellectual promise to solve our energy dilemma.
We searched a thousand years.
And then one of our exploratory vessels found Earth.
- Ma'el - Correct.
So we built the mothership and gave her a primary mission to come here and preserve us once we all enter the death stasis.
Preserve you for what? For your evolution.
However long it takes.
She will enter Earth orbit and we will place our only hope for survival with humanity trusting your boundless drive and imagination will one day do what we cannot.
Prevent our entire species from passing into oblivion.
So it's why you need us to save your lives.
You've known for thousands of years.
Yes.
And still, you seek to dominate and destroy us.
If only you had believed in us.
Then we would have compassion for you.
