. For weeks, rumours have spread across Mars, from outposts to settlements, from town to town. Something that had been buried for centuries has just been uncovered. And as this mysterious force moves across the southern valley, it leaves behind only silence and death. Take your seats, please. I just talked with the Cartel. They're concerned the rumours are getting out of control. They want to make a statement in two hours. Some of you may not know we've had another incident. At 15:20 hours, a freight train - Trans-Marineris 74 Yankee - returned from the Southern Valley on autopilot. Get to your security stations, now! Okay, let's move! Initial reports indicated it was a ghost train. It appeared no-one was aboard, until a survivor was discovered in a rear compartment. Call for Medivac backup. Lieutenant Melanie Ballard. Second officer for a squad of escort police. They were to transfer a prisoner from the jail at Shining Canyon Mine back here to Chryse. Lieutenant Ballard was taken to hospital under guard. She had superficial wounds but was in otherwise good condition. An illegal substance - tetromonochloride - was found in her system. Everything's gonna be all right. Bring her in, please. Lieutenant Ballard, please be seated. Do I get a lawyer, or don't police officers have rights these days? Representation by counsel won't be necessary. Your rights are protected by the Matronage. You can speak freely. Then, I'm not being charged? Sit down, Lieutenant. This is a discovery hearing. Your presence is required as ranking officer. I want your After Action report. Where's your team? The prisoner you were to pick up? What happened at Shining Canyon? Last Friday at 17:50, we were slamming through a dust storm on the edge of the southern valley. 74 Yankee was an ore hauler, servicing mines in the outer sector. My squad was hitching a ride into Shining Canyon. Mm, you beat me. You played Tarts before. I've never done this. Let's spin 'em again. One down and one up. Fuck me, the Five of Bats. You've got the wheel up! What's your wager? Five bucks. Helena? Hey. Sorry. Weather Station's tracking a huge storm across the southern sector and we're right under it by now. What's the mark on it? 3200 clicks. We should be there by 1800. So, um, just let me know if you need anything. Melanie! You high? Fuck, Helena, it's just clear. Be straighter than this track before we hit the canyon. You better be. This is no sleep walk. We pick up James Williams. Desolation Williams? Coolin' his heels in the Shining Canyon jail. Deep solitary. What's the charge this time? Murder! He's been up on murder 3 times. He gets off every time on self defense. It sounds like he finally went psycho. Beaucoup corpses, all mutilated. Williams shows up at the Shining Canyon mine with some bizarre story. Sends 3 officers to the Medivac before they lock him down. You see? All we got is you, me, this new guy, Jericho, and a couple of rookies. What do you think of Sgt Jericho? I was hopin' we'd get a woman we could count on. I don't know. I guess we'll see. Well, I need you straight, Melanie. Don't worry about that, Commander. I'm straight as they come. Such a shame. Check on our transfer schedule. Shining Canyon. Shining Canyon, this Trans-Marineris 74 Yankee. Are you ready for us? This storm is bad. I can't get through to the tower. Coffee, Mr McSimms. Three sugars, two whites. How you like it. You want some? No, thanks. How long? About 40. Shining Canyon? Shining Canyon, this is Trans-Marineris 74 Yankee. ETA 40 minutes. Everybody check your equipment. I don't want any surprises. Is everything all right, Lieutenant? Couldn't help but notice that charming scene with the Queen Bee. You know how the service is, Sergeant. She figures if I want to make Captain, I'll have to pay the price. I don't give a damn about wearing another bar. Yeah, could be that, or maybe she has good taste in women. Sergeant, you are seriously out of line. I'd hate to spoil my record. All right! I know you think you're some pretty tough hombres. You've had the best training, you have the best gear. You probably think this is some routine prisoner transfer. Get this into your heads. Nothing's routine about this prisoner. We are here to pick up James Desolation Williams. I want you jacked, ready and double tough. Officers, you can disembark here. What time's departure? We need half an hour to secure our prisoner. We got a four-hour turnaround. We're due back at 2200. You can re-board after that. See if you can raise the yard master. Ed? Ed, you out there? Rookies, use your breathers. We're not gonna have air like Earth for ten more years. Let's go. God, I hate this thing. You'll get used to it. Two years ago we were wearing full-face breathers. Yeah, it takes about a month to get over the headaches out here. Yeah. So, this is Shining canyon? God, what a dump! First time in the boonies, rookie? Another shitty boomtown like the others. Seen one, you can go home. You're always cold. You can't get a decent shower. They don't tell a one-year contract here equals two years Earth time. Read the fine print. Where is everybody? Yeah, Friday night, the place should be packed. A whole 12 hours before sun-up and there's money to burn, whores to fuck and drugs to take. Instead, we got a graveyard. Maybe they're all inside, spendin' their money. I'll get us squared away at the Recfac. You and Sgt Jericho check in at the jail. Save some hot water for me. Where were you before Chryse? Utopia. It's the arse end of the universe. Penal camp full of work amnesty cutthroats. Sounds nasty. But you seem to be holding together all right. Well, what you see is nothing. I have numerous hidden talents. Need some help with that? You're persistent, aren't you? I've changed a few minds in my time. There's not many of us breeders around. I'd hate to miss a chance to give it a go. What do you say? Hello! Anybody here? Officer to front desk. Well, hello, Mr Williams. No-one seems to be about. What do you make of it? I don't know. You want me to pop the lock and ask? That's a level 8 security door. I got a mystical way with locks and mechanical objects. There isn't a machine on Mars that doesn't love me. How about we check with the Commander first? So, what do you do for fun, then? Are you a gambler? No, I'm short time, Sergeant. I believe in saving my money. Don't worry about that. I was gonna do it for free. Let me put it this way. Maybe I'd sleep with you if you were the last man on Earth. But we're not on Earth. (LOUD BANG) It's a voltage overload, most likely. You wanna check it out? It's probably nothing. But... on second thought. Police officer! Anybody there? Oh, shit! Jericho! This is not making me happy. Time to get backup. Ah, Jesus Christ! What are you doing? I almost killed you. What's going on? Recfac's a slaughterhouse. What? Slaughterhouse? That's the word Descanso used. I didn't see it myself. According to what Cmdr Braddock said after we arrived in Shining Canyon, she and the two rookies headed towards the recreation facility. I'll get us squared away at the Recfac. You and Sgt Jericho check in at the jail. Save some hot water for me. Descanso, sweep left. Bashira, stick with me. Bashira! Officers, can you read? The casino, the barracks, the dining hall - no-one alive anywhere. Commander? What? I can't reach the train. Well, keep trying. What do you think? How we doin'? This thing was built to stay locked. And Williams is still locked up? What do you mean? He was arrested for murdering six rail workers and a payroll courier up at click 305 Hub Station. The bodies were hung and decapitated like the bodies found in the Recfac. How'd they pin that on Desolation? He showed up with the courier's payroll. The cashier realized. They made the arrest. There's gotta be a day log here somewhere. Sergeant's desk. Here. Last night the mine called in a work stoppage. Reported winds of 60 knots. 60? That's what it says. Anything else? Arrest for theft, then nothing. Got it. What's going on? We haven't had a meal or a piss break in six hours. Descanso, open the door. Everybody, answer "here" when I call your name. Akooshay! What? Just answer "here". Yeah. Zimmerman! I'm right in front of you. Benchley! Who's that? She showed up last night. Checked herself in. Insisted on being locked up with us. Well, wake her up, Sunshine. Let's see what she has to say. Hey! Hey! Somebody wants to talk you. Who are you? Whitlock. What are you doing in the holding tank? It's the only safe place at the moment. Can I go back to sleep? No, you can't! I need answers. What's goin' on out there? What's your ID? Doctor Arlene Whitlock. I'm the Spec Six Science Officer in charge of the mining operation at Drucker's Ridge. I left Drucker's about a week ago by a weather balloon I'd modified. There was a disturbance in town. It seemed prudent to get out. They said there's some sort of a riot. The place was destroyed. Something like that. I was adrift for several days ago. Ran out of food. I followed the railroad tracks, until I got here. Ah, shit! Then the storm forced me too low. And I hit a windmill and crashed. And they were kind enough to take me in here. Wasn't that nice of 'em. Mel, Jericho, go check out Williams. See if he knows anything about this. Williams? Do you know what's going on outside? Are you aware of what's going on outside? Let's go! This asshole doesn't know anything either. You got balls callin' him an asshole. That's Desolation Williams. He took out six when cornered him at Deimos Station. And this is eight inches. You men love to exaggerate. Just goes with the territory. In my case, it's a bit different. Perhaps a connoisseur like you would appreciate what I have to offer. Go get the Commander. * Disarm her! Officer? It was almost like she was possessed. Like there was some kind of force inside her. Who was she? She was a dispatch officer. We tried to make her comfortable. The rookies took her to a storage room in the back of the jail. Then the Commander and I went outside to look around town. What do you think? That the Science Officer's lying. Tell me again about Williams. Caught him with the money but he said he didn't kill anybody. They all just died of fright. Then cut their own heads off. Aarrgghh! (MUTED) Put down your weapon! Put it down! Call Jericho. Sgt Jericho, we need back up! We're 20 southwest of the Recfac. Don't open the door! Don't let it out. Who goes there? Can't fight it! It's in me! Commander Braddock! There's a man in there. Open it! The lock is destroyed. We're gonna need a cutting torch. How long? At least a half an hour, maybe more. What the fuck is going on here? He committed suicide. Before he slit his throat, he yelled something like "Stay away. Don't open the door." "Stay away!" And now, the Commander's gone. Helena! Maybe he was contagious. Crazy, I don't know. I say we take his word and leave him locked in. Look, one of us has to stay with the rookies. You go back to the jail. I'll find the Commander. Let's get the hell out of this place. There's nothing we can do for him. You're right. Okay, let's go. Drop the weapon before I cut this dyke bitch head off. What the fuck happened? Bashira let him out for some food. Let me guess, you unshackled him. What do you want? I want to get the fuck out of here! Okay, we'll let you walk. Just let the girl go. You think I'm fallin' for that shit? I can't let you take the rookie. Take me. Okay? Put the gun down! Put 'em down! Drop your gun, Descanso. Yeah, drop the gun, Descanso. Relax! Relax! Take it easy! Take it easy! Relax! Relax! You're gonna get what you want. I know I'll get everything I want. Let's go. Damn, girl, I like you already! Shit! You okay? I'm just swell. Where's Williams? He took off out the airlock. He went into the clinic. Saw him go in there, not even two minutes ago. He's got your shotgun, right? He was too fast. He's still in there. I can see the back door here. You two take the back door. I'll go in the front. If he comes at you, shoot to kill. Hey. (SNARLS) Now what? Aarrgghh! How the hell'd that happen? Let's go! Wait a minute. Looks like you're comin' with me. You see what's goin' on out there? I didn't kill nobody. Move it! I ain't goin' nowhere. I just saved your life. You should let me go. I saved yours. Looks like we're even. Now, move it! Let me ask you something, Desolation. You're so innocent, how come we found stolen flash on you? I didn't say I was innocent. I said I didn't kill nobody. Okay, let's say I believe you. What exactly happened at K 305? I don't know. I was just changing trains from Camp Sinai. Had time to get me something to eat. So, I went into the station. It was just lying there, so you took it? You would've done the same thing. See, that's where you're wrong. I'm a cop, not a crook. It's a thin line between a cop and a crook. You think it's a big difference between you and me? You just got the woman behind your bullshit. Look at ya. You look high right now. You know I saved your life out there. So why don't you save mine and let me out of here. Look, my job is to bring you back to Chryse to stand trial. I don't think you did it. That's not my call. Let's not make it more complicated than it has to be. It's gonna be real complicated! You could believe that shit! I ain't goin' back! VOICEOVER: Allergies can hold you back. Break through hayfever allergies with Telfast 5-in-1 multi-benefit relief. It works fast, relief last 24 hours and it's non-drowsy. Break through hayfever allergies with Telfast. Finally, the kitchen. Something light. Like... Okarito. Okarito. Goes well with Alexandra. Oh, look. Whoa, pink. Or... Hot Water Beach. Very relaxing. Pinky, blue. It's not very kitchen-y. But it is pretty... nursery. Hmm. Nursery? Or we could go Rangitikei River. (GASPS) Oh! (LAUGHS) You little beauty! So, the nursery. * So, you secured your prisoner. Where was your commanding officer during this time? I can only report what Sgt Jericho told me later. After the man committed suicide, Jericho looked for the Commander. Let's get out of this place! There's nothin' we can do for him. Yeah. You're right, you're right. Let's go. Commander Braddock! Ah-ah-ah! Argh! Ugh! Ugh! Ugh! Argh! (CHANTING) (SPEAKS MARTIAN LANGUAGE) Hargh! Hargh! Hargh! Hargh! Rrrrraaaaaarrrrrrgggghhhhhh! (SPEAKS MARTIAN LANGUAGE) Rrrrrraaaaaagggggghhhhhh! Lieutenant, we got a situation here. Sergeant, you're breaking up. I can hardly hear you. The Commander's dead! "Everybody in the mine's gone insane!" Jericho, can you read? (STATIC) Jericho! (LAUGHS) Hey! Come on, let us out of here! Start at the beginning! (LAUGHS) I told you, I got here last night. Don't bullshit me! Lieutenant! Okay. What the hell is goin' on out there? What? In semi-arid regions on Earth, there are certain organisms that live in small pools that are formed by the annual rains. When the pools dry up, the organisms can't live, but they don't die. They go dormant below the surface, away from the sun, until the next rain cycle begins. Then they re-emerge. I think something like that is happening here. I don't understand. Whatever used to live here, we woke it up! It takes us, okay? I'm talking about a kind of possession! Lieutenant! Sergeant Jericho's on the radio. He said he found three people. They're on their way in. ETA - five minutes. You should talk to him. He's found three people? That's what he said. You okay? No. Something broken? No, I'm all right. But it's out of the body now. Yeah, it's loose in here. Lieutenant, Sergeant's on the radio. "Lieutenant, we're coming in. Can you read me?" Sergeant, where are you? "We're right down the street." We? Who's"we"? "I found three people alive. Open the door for us!" I tried to reach you. Make sure that door is locked! There must be 200 fuckin' freaks, and any minute now they'll come to kick our ass! Okay. Relax. Who are these guys? I found 'em hiding in the mine shed. Lieutenant, we got a situation here. "Sergeant, you're breaking up. I can hardly hear you." The Commander's dead! And everybody in the mine's gone insane! Check the window! They didn't see him. They're gone. Who're you? Who're we? Who're you? Man asked you a question! My name's Jericho. Well, at least he's not one of them. What's happening out there? Who the fuck are those clowns? What are they all sparked up about? Used to be miners. Then everybody in this place lost their mind. Running around, chopping people's heads off. Ease up, man. We were on the rim when they called a work stoppage. What are they doin'? Shit, I don't know. Look! They're knocking off early for the night! How will we sneak in on a shift change? Shut up! What the hell is that? Let's get the hell outta here! We hid till the storm was over. Later, I went to take a look around. Thought they were all dead. Then some of 'em started to come to. They walked around like they were confused or lost. Few of 'em seemed okay. They was tryin' to help the others. Then they started changing. Changing? What do you mean? They act different, stand different. Start cutting themselves for decoration. Filing their teeth. Making weapons. Killing the ones who hadn't changed. Cutting people's faces off and wearing 'em for masks. You lads got any weapons? I mean real weapons. Only cops can have guns. There's some detonators in them cases over there. Do you know how these things work? I know you need dynamite to use 'em. Okay, then. We take our prisoner and we all get on the train. What prisoner would that be? That doesn't concern you. If it's Desolation Williams... ..it concerns me very much. Now drop your weapons. All of you! Weapons on the floor. So, only cops have guns, eh? You fuckin' pricks! We lied. Now go get Williams. I don't think so. What was that? Fucking kill me! No problem. Look, will you two stop fucking about! Lieutenant, let Williams out. Gimme one good reason. I just gave you 200 good reasons. They're probably outside right now. Doesn't matter if Williams is wanted for murder or that they're scumbags. What matters right now is that we stick together to get out of here. Including Williams. Including them. Who you calling scumbag, motherfucker? Now, quit with all your fucking stalling and take us to Williams! I'll be goddamn! Whoooo! Finally. Man, this town went crazy! We had to improvise. You like it? I love it. I want you to let him out. What's up, D? I'm still shackled. You pigs on a fucking break? Free him up! I knew you'd let me go. It's been a long time. I didn't think y'all could do it. Piece of cake. It was my plan, Desolation. Fuck! Thought you was watching the door? I was! Bitch, you better open this door. I don't think so. You don't open that door, I'm gonna blow your head off. Then your asses will never get out. Someone will find you tied upside down in here with your heads cut off. Tell your dogs to quit barking so we can talk. Put 'em down! Put it down! Listen to me, Williams. We don't have a lot of time. You need us and we need you. We've seen what's going on. We won't survive if we don't stick together. I need you to give me your word that if I open this door you and your boys will obey my command at all times. I never give my word. It's okay. I never make deals with criminals either. You got it. What? Oh, no, you making deals with cops? And you are too. Give her your weapon. Everybody, give it up! Well, introduce us to your friends. These are my compadres - Uno, Dos and Tres. Uno must be the nice one. (LAUGHS) You got that right. Butchy. I'm not as nice as Desolation. And I'll cut your fuckin' titties off! Who's in charge here? I know you better let go of my arm. Who is in charge here? You! You! Shit, you! You! You! Shit! You just gonna stand there and watch her break my shit? Yeah. Now you're done mopping the floor, get me a beer, killer. All right, what's next? We get more deputies. You're deputised. Consider this a martial law situation. Let's go. When did this start? It started a few minutes ago. What should we do with him? We can't take him with us. Then here he stays. (BIRDS CHIRP) (KIDS GIGGLE) (BOTH GASP) (FOOTSTEPS CRUNCH) Ohh! Thank you, Mrs Thompson! * Guys, what is that? It's a Laffer. A black market Breather. Has a fifteen percent nitrous mix. It gets you high? Turns your brain into Swiss cheese. One gross of detonators. What are those good for? It'd help if we had some dynamite, but they make a pretty good bang. We could put 'em in food cans, make hand grenades. All right, you got ten minutes. Hey! Easy. Here, let me do it. That's beautiful! That's what you get, dumbass! You gonna be okay to do this? No problema. All right, it's almost 2200 hours. Here's the plan, short and simple. Descanso and Jericho take the lead, everybody else follows. It's 50 meters to the station. Bashira and I are in the rear. Any questions? Hey! Put your hand down! All clear. Let's do it! Hey, bro, I don't see no motherfucking train! Hey, lady, we don't see no train. It'll be here. All right, come on. Let's go! Whoa! That's the mine office! What are they doing? Tearing the town apart, building by building. Come on, pick it up! Lieutenant! Hold your fire! Just keep on moving. Go! Where's the train? I don't know! What the fuck is that supposed to mean?! Ballard to the train, come in! Plan A is fucked up. Got a plan B? Yeah, it's the same as plan A. You got any fresh ideas? What we should've done in the first place. Shit! Come on you mindless motherfuckers! Second time I saved your life. Yeah, run a tab. Jericho, grenade! Come on, man, on your feet. Let's move! Shit! (SHOUTING IN MARTIAN LANGUAGE) (SHOUTS / CHANTING) Rrrraaaarrrrgggghhhh! Hey, open that door! We sealed the airlock doors. Sergeant Jericho dismantled the lock. They couldn't open the door from the outside, so we were safe for a while. * Get on the radio, try to reach the train! Where's your brother? He didn't make it. Oh, God! Uno was your brother? Yeah. Rraarrgghh! (CHANTING) (SHOUTS IN MARTIAN LANGUAGE) (CHANTING) Look at him. Whatever's inside him has waited a long time to get out. I didn't understand their design, how they move. But it's got to be the wind. Yeah. Yeah, the wind takes 'em. Once their hosts dies, they just drift along the railway tracks, town to town human to human. What a perfect creation. Vengeance on anyone who lays claim to their planet. What did you see at Drucker's Ridge? I was at the mine when they called a work stoppage. It was a Section 7-40 - a "Scientifically significant find." A 7-40 applies to any number of things found on Mars. A biological organism, an indication of water, things like that. After we dynamited the mountain, we discovered an entrance. It was a tunnel carved into the rock. It'd been hidden underneath the outer walls for centuries, and someone, other than man, had carved it. Jesus! What the hell is that? I don't know. Let's get the hell out of here! It was me. I opened Pandora's Box. I let 'em out. I contacted the train. They're north of town. The tracks are blocked. Can they get through? They're working on it. You okay? Yes. Barricaded the rear door. Good. There's a maintenance court out the back enclosed by a five meter wall. There's a Rover parked out there. Maybe we can make a run for it. No, we wait. Bashira contacted the train, they're coming back for us. If the trains coming, they better hurry up! What's the matter? You did good. Yeah, right. It's a fucked up situation. I never put too much faith in cops, but you did all right. You trust me? Hell, no. I don't understand you, Desolation. Only one looking out for me is me. Doesn't that bother you? Nothing bothers me. I stopped worrying a long time ago. Don't you believe in anything? I believe in staying alive. Yeah, but for what? Stick around, I might let you know one day. When? When the tide is high and the water's rising. Doing okay in here? Mel? Check this out. What about it? It's pretty solid. One way in and a back door out, leading to the rear entrance. Good sturdy door. So, what's your point? It's rather cozy. Don't you think? I don't believe this. You lured me back here to seduce me? Yeah, well, the way things are going I thought this might be our last chance to... to dance. Yeah. (GUNFIRE) Fuck him, whatever the fuck he is! It's out of him. Everyone go now! Let's take her out back. What the fuck do you mean? We ain't moving her anywhere! It's taken her over, man. There's nothing we can do. Easy, man. I lost a brother in this. That's not her. Come on. Let's put her down before they hear us. Oh... This belongs to her. Where did you get it? I stole it. Do you know what it is? It's her stash. This will mess with anything in there. Bon Voyage, Mel. Come on, let's get the hell back in there. No... I will not! I was aware of having thoughts... ..or memories. Like I'd been invaded by something and it was trying to take me over. Something inside me wouldn't let that other thing take over. I fought it. I didn't know where I was at first, then it hit me, I was alone, unarmed. The back wall's been breached! Don't worry, the door's locked and secured. Let me in! It's me! Shit! It's Melanie! Open the door! Looks like her. I haven't heard any of these things speakin' English. Come on, Williams! The tide's getting high out here! Gimme those keys. Come on! Is it you? Yes! It's me! I had a glimpse of the Martians. Of their minds, of what they want. They won't rest short of the destruction of any invading species. As far as they're concerned, we are the invaders. Something's kicking out there. Shit, they made a battering ram! Everybody to the rear of the jail. Bashira and Jericho, get detonators. You're the second line of defence. We stay here? Hold 'em off and then fall back to the storeroom. Soon as we kill one, whatever's inside is gonna come after us. I know. So if one of us gets possessed... Leave 'em. Finally, the kitchen. Something light. Like... Okarito. Okarito. Goes well with Alexandra. Oh, look. Whoa, pink. Or... Hot Water Beach. Very relaxing. Pinky, blue. It's not very kitchen-y. But it is pretty... nursery. Hmm. Nursery? Or we could go Rangitikei River. (GASPS) Oh! (LAUGHS) You little beauty! So, the nursery. * (SHOUTING) Here we go! Party time! I'm out! I'm out! Move! Clear! Clear! Clear! Clear! Clear! Get out! I got it! Take them out back! You better get out of here! Argh! Aarrgghh! Come on! Come on, let's go! (ROARS) Look for the train. Jericho, get this thing started! Unlock the gate! Come on, hurry up! The train's sitting at the station. Officer to train, do you read? Where the hell have you been? Where the hell have you been? Bashira, come down! Wait for us, we're on our way. Let's go! Come on! Get in! (ROARS) Get yourselves ready! Oh, my! Come on! Come on. Let's go! Let's go, let's go! Come on! Come on! Okay! Go! Go! What the hell happened to you? We got trapped north of here, tryin' to offload. I'll get us out of here. * We've gotta go back. Slow the train down outside of town, then come to a complete stop. No way! I'm giving you an order. I don't care, the answer's no! The answer's yes! Look, even if we got back to Chryse, those things will just keep coming. We've got a chance to stop this thing before it goes any further. This is about one thing. Dominion. It's not their planet any more. What about him? Isn't it our job to take him back? Is he still a prisoner, or is he one of us? I can't give a damn about savin' this planet. Seems like it's been after me since the day I was born. If I'm gonna die, I'm gonna die fighting not running. Whitlock, if we blew up the nuclear power station, what would happen? There'd be a huge explosion, right? Not unless you retract the control rods and expose the core. Then what? Well, then, you'd have a small atomic bomb going boom. How small? I don't know. It'd blow out a radius of a mile, maybe two. Would it kill them? It'd certainly destroy their human hosts, but as far as them. I dunno. Jericho, can you get us in? I can try. The plan was simple. Jericho, Whitlock and I left the train and went to the power plant. The others stayed aboard the train as it backed into the station. They were provide cover and distract the Martians as we set the charges. They'd pick us up. We'd get away from Shining Canyon before the place blew. It was a simple plan. The problem was it didn't work the way it was supposed to. How you doing Jericho? I'm working on it. Hurry up. We gotta remove the water jacket and destroy the containment shell. Where do I put the dynamite? Officer to the train. They've spotted us! Get your ass back here! (SHOUTS IN MARTIAN LANGUAGE) Yeah? (ROARS) Argh! Let's go! Let's go. The Doc says the blast radius could be up to two miles. What's that mean? Step on it! Stay here and keep it full throttle. What are you gonna do? Lighten our load. I think there's more dynamite in the rear car. Williams? (ROARS) See you later, you big motherfucker! (ROARS) You okay? Say your prayers. I didn't know you was cut this deep. Should've taken care of this hours ago. You do that like a pro. Yeah... Me and my brother been through a lot of battles ever since we was kids. I never thought I'd go to war with somebody like you. I know when you get to Chryse you'll tell those people that I helped you. And I wasn't the cause of all this mess around here. Cos I know they'll look for somebody to blame. I swear, Williams, as soon as I get back, I'll tell my superiors about this fucked up planet. They'll drop the charges when they get the report. Okay. That ought to hold it. When we get there, have somebody look at it. I couldn't get it perfect, so it might leave a scar. I'm getting a collection. You'll be all right. Comfortable? Yeah. I'll get you a blanket. What the hell are you doing? Oh, this is where I get off. What are you talking about? We'll be in Chryse soon. Can't let you turn me in. I can't let you walk. What you gonna do, fucking shoot me? Look, there's nowhere to run. Anywhere's better than hell. Catch you later. (LAUGHS) Yeah, right. Oh, shit! And what happened to Williams? I don't know. When I woke up he was gone. And you were handcuffed? Must've done it while I slept. At that point, I trusted him. That's all you have to tell us? That's all I know. All right, Lieutenant Ballard, I suggest you get some rest. You're dismissed. Is our statement to the Cartel going to be that Mars is being overrun by ghosts? "Attention all police personnel, report to your nearest munitions station for weapon reassignment." "A security breach has occurred in the south quadrant." "This is a level ten emergency." "All police personnel report to your division sergeant for assignment." "All civilians evacuate immediately." "remain indoors until further instructed." (SHOUTING) (SHOUTING AND SCREAMING) Come on! Tide is up! Time to stay alive! If you ever wanna come to the other side, you'd make a hell of a crook. You'd make a hell of a cop. (BOTH) Nah! Let's just kick some ass! It's what we do best. IMS Subtitles www.able.co.nz Captions were made with the support of NZ On Air. Able 2018
