The Ark (2023) s03e11 Episode Script
A Pretty Nasty One

Previously on "The Ark"
What the hell is Drake doing to them?
Nothing good.
It means you're the Gen-3
he's been searching for
ever since we launched.
You let her get away. Find her.
This is the cure
for the Gen-3 psychopathy.
- BOTH: Whoa.
- Well, a giant
I don't know what it is
energy field or something
just lit up out here.
I might not remember our past,
but I remember this this feeling.
One of our high-speed cameras
caught an image between phases.
Something the force field is cloaking.
What the hell is it?
Okay, now that we have a cure
for the Gen-3 clones
thank you, Sanji.
Couldn't have done it without you.
We need to figure out
how to get the cure
to all the Gen-3s out there.
- Starting with "Ark 22"?
- Mm-hmm.
Drake's ship
how do we even get close?
Last time we saw him,
he threatened to blow us up.
Now that there's a cure,
I have a feeling
Drake's attitude will change.
Yeah, the challenge
is gonna be finding him.
Yeah.
Elias and Luna
might be able to reach him,
since their space station was a buyer.
Good idea, Mr. Trust.
Make contact, find out
if they can set a rendezvous.
Kimi, turn us around,
set a course
back to the space station.
Sanji, prep at least 35 doses
of the gene treatment.
On it.

At first, um
it was just sex.
"Just sex"? Me?
No, I don't believe you.
I-I would never, ever dream
of being so shallow.
- Sure.
- [BOTH LAUGH]
In your defense, you thought
you were dying of Klampkins.
So you didn't want to fall in love
or have someone fall in love with you.
And I had just lost Harris.
Your ex.
Right.
Sorry.
Must have been rough. [CLEARS THROAT]
Well, cheers.
So, um [CLEARS THROAT]
[INHALES DEEPLY]
Was it good?
What?
[WHISPERING] The sex.
Anyway [LAUGHTER]
Despite your best effort
I kind of fell in love with you.
Eh, well, yeah, I mean, who wouldn't?
Hmm.
Then you found out
you weren't going to die.
I admitted I'd fallen
in love with you, too.
You remember?
No.
But how could I not?
You're amazing.
♪
It has to be the thing
the underground people want fixed.
- Doesn't look like a weapon.
- I don't think it is one.
I made a graph of Eva
and Lieutenant Brice's
latest oxygen aerial survey.
The darker the circle,
the more oxygen is present.
So the highest concentration of oxygen
- is right over that structure.
- Yes.
I think the oxygen is coming from it.
Meaning that thing
is some sort of a terraformer?
Oh, that would make so much sense!

Those quakes are more frequent.
Well, it makes a case
for it being a terraformer
that's broken.
If so

[BOTH BREATHING HEAVILY]
Well, that was amazing.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
The things we missed
growing up in a lab.
Hey, you're on birth control, right?
Don't worry.
Sanji suggested it as soon
as you and I became,
you know, obvious.
Yeah, well, Sanji is nothing
if not overcautious.
- She put you on it, too?
- Yep.
[LAUGHING]
Better safe than sorry.
What?
Well, it used to be
that people weren't sure
if Gen-2s and Gen-3s making
babies the old-fashioned way
carried the same risks
as making clones
- from them in the lab, right?
- Mm-hmm.
But now we have a cure
for Gen-3 syndrome,
so it's safe.
Yeah, I guess.
Which means
we could, in theory, have kids.
Whoa. Slow down, stud.
I'm just saying.
We could make
some pretty great kids
Or not.
I always assumed
I couldn't have children.
Hmm.
What?
It's just I've seen you
captain this ship
through mutinies, alien diseases.
You almost had your head cut
open by one of your clones.
I've never seen you show this
level of fear before
till now.
Yeah, well
the thought of being a parent
is scarier than any of those things.
I'm not saying you have
to make a decision right now
one way or another.
Just nice to know we have the choice
and other clones do.
We're arriving at the space station.
Kimi, turn on Alicia's shields.
Activating shields now.
Good day, Captain Garnet.
- Hello, William.
- Hello, Luna.
Any word on Drake and "Ark 22"?
Yes, the rendezvous
is all set that you requested.
However, as usual,
Drake is late arriving.
- But you're sure he's coming?
- He gave his word.
I'm sure he'll be here any moment.
[RUMBLING]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Captain, I knew you'd come back.
Please, come over.
Not until you meet some conditions.
Do we really have to do
this dance again?
You'll come over now, or
we'll open fire on your ship.
No, you won't, because
doing so risks killing me,
and you think you need me
to cure the Gen-3s.
I don't think it. I'm fairly certain.
You'll change your mind once
you meet my friend Alexandria.
Hello, Mr. Drake.
I can't say I'm happy to see you,
but I'm glad "Ark 22" survived.
Uh, sorry, who's that?
Don't you remember me?
I used to work as a cook
in the mess hall
before Gen-3 syndrome set in.
Or maybe you remember her
as the woman you sold to Anton
so he could beat her to death.
Sorry, what am I missing?
Isn't it obvious? Look at her.
We found the cure.
I don't believe you.
It's true, Mr. Drake. I'm proof.
You actually did. You cured her.
Well, Dr. Kabir here did,
yes, without hurting anyone,
without cutting me
or anyone else open.
And it works on any Gen-3s?
That's why we arranged this meeting.
We can bring the drug over in bulk
and cure all the Gen-3s on your ship.
It'll also immunize any
Gen-3s who haven't turned yet.
Oh, well, in that case,
you're most welcome.
Please, come over.
As I said, there are conditions.
I want your word
I won't be experimented on
if I come over with a med team.
What kind of monster
do you think I am?
A pretty nasty one.
Well, I'm sorry you feel
this way, Captain,
but I think it's time to try
and think logically here.
If what you say is true,
then I don't really need you
as a test subject anymore, right?
So why would I hurt you?
He's got a point.
I want your word.
No one on my team will be harmed.
You have my word.
Let bygones be bygones.
We want the same thing.
Bring the drug over
and cure your people
from this terrible curse.
♪
Zed, I need to ask you something,
and I hope you know
and trust me well enough
to tell me the truth.
Of course, Felix, what is it?
Did EF-1 have some sort
of a secret energy weapon
that the GSA didn't know about?
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Yes.
It was equipped with
a pulse-locked energy weapon.
In fact, you saw one
just like it on EF-2
before we disarmed it.
How powerful was it?
Powerful enough
to take down an entire GSA ship
with a single shot.
Why do you ask?
Well, we went through
the logs of the EF-1 server,
and we found a reference
to it firing a pulsed weapon.
At what?
In the direction of the force field
that's protecting that massive
terraforming structure.
Is it possible it's
a terraformer and a weapon?
Strickland and Avega, report
to the science lab, please.
Why would EF-1 shoot at a terraformer
if it wasn't also a weapon?
They might have not known what it was.
Yeah, uh, guys, guys, guys,
that's why we called you here.
So we think we have figured out
a way to get inside
of the force field, right,
find out what on Earth that
thing in there is or isn't.
How?
So when Eva and I were
in the underground,
right in that room with the rock dome,
we left it, and it was all lit up.
It had, um, like, lines
and and symbols everywhere.
I think it's a control panel
for the force field.
When I was down there,
all I could see was
the stone dome, no controls.
We were the only ones who could see it
because we were out of phase.
Then how do we see it now?
We studied the high-speed-camera data
from this photo.
It captured it only
in that field of that frame
because of a brief phase shift
when the shuttle made contact.
I was able to use that data
to tune our infrared goggles to
be phase-shifted the same way.
So it will let us
see what you guys saw.
Exactly.
So we can go down to the underground,
and, uh, Eva can figure out
how to turn it off.
Eva can try to figure out
how to turn it off.
Do it.

Our friend here can't see it,
which probably means
his people can't either.

Drake said he was going
to kill my husband if I didn't.
And I'm sorry, but I love
my husband very much,
and and I didn't want to be
responsible for his death.

He's dead.
So then I'm right.
- You're all clones of Drake.
- Yeah, we are.
Our father has given us
a life of comfort.
So, if you're Drake clones,
then that must mean you're all Gen-3s.
That's why we're confined
to this suite.
We live the best lives
until we change.
Huh.
But why?
I don't understand.
Well, why do you even exist?
Why did Drake make you
in the first place?
He was searching for a cure
for Gen-3 psychosis
so he could keep the clone race going.
Otherwise, clones will die out
with all the Gen-2s.
Well, boys
I've got some very good news for you.
Hold still for me.
Perfect.
All done.
Aw.
- Thank you.
- You're so welcome.
That's the last Gen-3 G44.
Yeah, I've seen several
in the corridors.
I can't wait to meet all of them.
Oh, one other thing
I did an autopsy on Drake.
Didn't take me long to find it.
He died of an aneurysm.
- So, natural causes.
- Yes.
Can I ask did he have
swollen feet and ankles?
Actually, he did,
but I'm not sure why.
- 'Cause the body was moved.
- Excuse me?
Yeah, I could tell
from the body position
that Drake was dragged into the cell.
The swelling tells me
it happened after he died.
Are you sure?
As security for the GSA back on Earth,
I investigated a lot of murders.
- His body was definitely moved.
- But why? By who?
I don't know, but I sure
as hell intend to find out.
♪
Don't touch it. It could be dangerous.
Oh, trust me, I was not going to.
I don't see any seams,
no doors, no panels.
Looks like it's made
from the same stuff
as the underground complex.
And the stone tablet Angus dug up.
Hey, look.
There's damage. See?
Way up there on that top-edge corner.
Maybe that's the damage
from the EF-1 weapon.
[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]
Guys, I have some readings
you should see!
Come on.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
We got readouts from the scans
of every instrument we have.
It's emitting all sorts
of transverse energy waves,
magnetic waves, and SSTs.
Um, I'm getting similar readings
- from the ground around it.
- What does that mean?
Uh, It means it goes deep
underground beneath it.
It's not just a big stone monument.
It's got electronics
and machinery inside it.
I can't make heads or tails
of any of this.
It's so alien.
Alien as in unfamiliar
or little green men?
Well, I don't know
any human civilization
who had the technology to build this.
So little green men, then.
Well, I-I doubt they were
little or green, but, yeah.
I think whoever built this
must have been
an intelligent alien culture.
What about a little gray octopus?
What?
Remember those
those octopus-looking things,
- right, from the cave drawings?
- Yeah.
You think that's the species
who built this?
Who knows?
But I reckon it's a pretty good bet.
- [RUMBLING]
- Whoa, all right, all right.
- All right.
- Oh, shit!
Okay.
♪
[TABLET CHIMES]
Ah!
[TABLET WHIRRING]
I'm getting all kinds of new readings.
Me too.
Oh, God.
Sorry to keep you waiting.
Any luck finding Ves
and the other Black Thorn?
No, and we searched everywhere.
I got teams scouring the forest now.
What did you want to see us about?
That giant structure out there
is emitting solar magnetic
manipulation fields.
Well, didn't it say something
like that on that stone tablet?
Yes, we actually think this artifact
may be some sort of readout,
like our info tablets.
As we speak, that big thing out there
appears to be trying
to generate solar flares
to take down all our stuff in orbit.
- What?
- Then we need to destroy it.
No, hold on. It's not a danger.
It's too damaged to have
any effect on the sun
well, not just yet.
Just the same, if we fix it,
won't it become a danger to us?
If we don't fix it, I think
we're in bigger trouble.
[KEYS CLACKING]
Uh, my team used
a ground-penetrating radar,
and we calculated that the structure
goes at least
2 kilometers below ground.
It's literally regulating
the entire planet's regolith
and magma.
Which points
to a terraforming machine.
Or, to be very pedantic,
a terraform maintenance machine.
Yeah, but it's glitching,
which explains
the lava and earthquakes.
And oxygen.
[COMPUTER CHIMES]
The top of the structure
is catalyzing carbon dioxide
and various acids
into breathable air,
which explains why the oxygen
is centered there.
That's where we saw
the damage on the thing.
- Mm-hmm.
- Yes.
That is where it took a direct
hit from the EF-1 weapon.
Still, it makes
little sense to me that
that this thing out there is
a-a terraformer and a weapon.
Maybe part of its programming
is to protect the planet
from outsiders.
That must be what caused the
solar flares on Ross, right?
The ones that took down
Admiral Hammond's Ark.
Eva, you said that you
were detecting SSTs from it?
Yes. Subspace Transmissions.
Well, if there's a machine
like this on Ross
and one here,
maybe they're connected somehow,
like networked computers.
That's what she said.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
I just didn't believe her.
Who?
Doc.
When she said it,
she said the part of her here
sent a distress signal
to the part of her on Ross.
Guys, that's why she put
the programming in my head
to save the part of her that's here.
[RUMBLING, THUD]
- [SCREAMS]
- It's okay!
♪
We need to access that program.
How?
I hate to even say it,
but should we put it back
in Lieutenant Brice?
- No!
- No frickin' way.
There must be another way
to talk to it.
I might be able to tap
into it with a computer I/O.
Look, Alicia,
that's not a good idea, right?
- You cannot trust that woman.
- It's not a woman.
It's software, but you're right.
I need to be
in an air-gapped environment.
To be safe and keep it
out of our systems,
it needs to be
an un-networked computer,
not connected to any of our equipment.
- What about "Ark 16"?
- That could work.
It's gonna be empty, right?
But the life support is still on.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- How do I get up there?
- I'll take you.
No.
You should stay far away from Doc.
I'll send you
with one of my finest pilots.
Okay.
Thanks for taking me up, Ana.
No problem.
Okay, I'm going to use
the air-gapped terminal
in med bay to keep Doc
out of "Ark 16's" systems.
But just in case,
once I'm clear of the airlock,
you need to decouple from the
Ark and move away a few meters.
We don't want the Doc code to
jump into the shuttle's systems

I ran their DNA.
All of them
direct Gen-3 clones of Drake.
Why create clones of yourself
if you know they'll become psychotic?
Ego.
Well, he did have a big one of those.
Kimi to Captain Garnet.
I found something in Drake's room.
I think you should see it.
It's an NCTD.
A what now?
A Neural Correlates Transfer Device.
Which is?
It moves a mind
from one brain to another.
Get out of here.
I read a paper that Drake wrote
about his experiments
on such a device.
Why wasn't this the most
famous piece of tech on Earth?
Yeah, why haven't we heard about it?
They never went into use
because it didn't really have a value.
It can only transfer from one brain
to an exactly identical other brain.
And what use would that have?
I'll tell you what use
it would have
immortality.
That's why Drake wanted
the cure for the Gen-3s.
That's why he has
all those clones of himself.
Drake was gonna move his brain
from body to body forever.
Damn. Why didn't I think
of doing that?
Maybe because you're not
evil enough to murder someone
- to take their body.
- There is that.
And I don't have a clone.
Wait, maybe Drake already used it,
then moved his old dead body
back into the cell.
So Drake's not actually dead.
He's inside one
of those younger clones.
But which one?

Okay, all we have to do
is get one of them to slip up,
say something only Drake would know,
and then we'll know
which one Drake went into.
Got it.

Hello.
Hi.
Am I in trouble?
No, no, we just want to ask
a few questions.
Okay.
Like what?
Like, do you know why Drake
created you and your brothers?
Yes, ma'am.
He he wanted to make more C-1s
because we are the most
important clone model.
But you are all Gen-3 clones,
so you were all destined
to become psychotic.
Yes, that's why
he was looking for a cure
so we wouldn't have to.
So let me guess
C-1s are all clones of Drake.
Of course.
Superior to all other clones.
Right, but what
if he didn't find a cure?
Then you'd all lose your minds.
Then what?
Then we would make the sacrifice.
Death?
A worthwhile sacrifice
to ensure a continuous supply of C-1s.
But for what end?
Just to stroke Drake's ego?
What?
We're not getting anywhere.
Well, maybe it's time
we tried a more direct line
of questioning.
Mm, nothing to lose,
Drake. Wakey-wakey, Drakey.
We know you're in there.

by some clones who stole an Ark
early in the disaster.
Oh, yeah, that would be my guys,
but we never made it, so
Oh, we heard a group of clones,
mostly out of a lab in Africa,
made it there and settled.
Huh.
Oh, we were out of London,

the neural transfer device?

So this was sort of our way of
Being fruitful, multiplying.

Of course, Felix, what is it?
Did EF-1 have some sort
of a secret energy weapon
that the GSA didn't know about?
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Yes.
It was equipped with
a pulse-locked energy weapon.
In fact, you saw one
just like it on EF-2
before we disarmed it.
How powerful was it?
Powerful enough
to take down an entire GSA ship
with a single shot.
Why do you ask?
Well, we went through
the logs of the EF-1 server,
and we found a reference
to it firing a pulsed weapon.
At what?
In the direction of the force field
that's protecting that massive
terraforming structure.
Is it possible it's
a terraformer and a weapon?
Strickland and Avega, report
to the science lab, please.
Why would EF-1 shoot at a terraformer
if it wasn't also a weapon?
They might have not known what it was.
Yeah, uh, guys, guys, guys,
that's why we called you here.
So we think we have figured out
a way to get inside
of the force field, right,
find out what on Earth that
thing in there is or isn't.
How?
So when Eva and I were
in the underground,
right in that room with the rock dome,
we left it, and it was all lit up.
It had, um, like, lines
and and symbols everywhere.
I think it's a control panel
for the force field.
When I was down there,
all I could see was
the stone dome, no controls.
We were the only ones who could see it
because we were out of phase.
Then how do we see it now?
We studied the high-speed-camera data
from this photo.
It captured it only
in that field of that frame
because of a brief phase shift
when the shuttle made contact.
I was able to use that data
to tune our infrared goggles to
be phase-shifted the same way.
So it will let us
see what you guys saw.
Exactly.
So we can go down to the underground,

how to turn it off.

she doesn't have a husband, never did.
In fact, since Jill left,
Drake's been sleeping with Dr. Morgan.
That lying witch.
No. No, we can use this.
This might be a good thing.
Lieutenant Reed, I need you
to do something for me.
Attention all C-1s please report
to med bay for a brain scan.
I repeat all C-1 report to med bay
for a brain scan.
Megan, why are they scanning brains?
You told me that my brain scan
is identical,
that they'd never know it was me.
- So it is you.
- Huh?
You just outed yourself, asshole.
Hey.
♪
Thank you for giving me my life back.
- Oh, you're welcome.
- [CHUCKLES]
Are you sure you don't want
to come with us to Homebase?
- You're all more than welcome.
- Perhaps in time.
We've heard rumors
of a planet colonized
by some clones who stole an Ark
early in the disaster.
Oh, yeah, that would be my guys,
but we never made it, so
Oh, we heard a group of clones,
mostly out of a lab in Africa,
made it there and settled.
Huh.
Oh, we were out of London,
so it must be another group.
Then it still might exist.
What are your plans
with Drake and Dr. Morgan?
We'll give both of them a fair trial.
Our people will vote
on their guilt and punishment.
Good.
I was wondering, could I take
the neural transfer device?
- To study it.
- I'm sorry.
Captain Garnet suggested I space it
so no one could use it again.
No good can come from that thing.
I look forward to crossing
paths again, Lieutenant.
Oh. Uh
Thanks for everything.
Yeah, good luck.
Uh, I hope you find everything
you've been looking for.
[CHUCKLES] I hope we meet again.
So do I.
You know how to contact us?
[SIGHS] I have things
I need to attend to.
Will you just let me do this?
You need to relax.
Fine.
[SIGHS]
You think the "Ark 22" clones
will ever come to Homebase?
Uh, if they don't find
that clone planet,
they'll have to go there eventually.
Ooh, right there.
[GROANS] Mmm.
Captain Garnet, Alexandria
is trying to contact you.
That was fast.
Put her through to my console.
[CHUCKLES]
Bet you didn't expect to hear
from me so soon.
- [SNIFFLES]
- Is everything okay?
Yes. Is Ian with you?
Yeah. Yeah, I'm here.
Good. Uh
I decided to dig into "Ark 22's" logs
to see if Drake
was up to anything else
we should know about, and
[SNIFFLES, CHUCKLES]
[VOICE BREAKING] I found something
that I think you and Ian
are gonna want to see.
I-I already transmitted the file.
Uh, yeah, I see it. What is it?
Jump to 52 minutes in.
I hope it means as much to both of you
as it meant to me.
I have to go.
Well, go on.
- Click it.
- [CHUCKLES]
My name is Sydney, and I, um
I donated my DNA to the clone program
because I needed money,
is the bottom line.
Looks like testimonials
of people who donated their DNA.
It looks like it.
You want out of me
I, um I donated my DNA
because I kind of want to be
young again.
I mean, I know I know it's
not gonna be me, per se, but
What did she say?
- 52 minutes in?
- I think so, yeah.
I'm a retired emergency-room doctor.
Mm-hmm. Marsha was
the best ER doc in the city,
saved more lives than I can count.
And Frederick here was
a professor of world history.
Till the damn government shut down
the history-education program.
Why did you donate your DNA?
Well, we've been together
for, what, 42 years now?
I still love her
like the first day I met her.
But no matter how much
we loved each other
we just couldn't conceive children.
So this was sort of our way of
Being fruitful, multiplying.
[BOTH LAUGHING]
It's our understanding
that our clones will be given
to younger couples
who can't have children.
So they might avoid the
disappointment that we had.
- Well, thank you for
- Um
can I just say,
if you're watching this,
you're probably one of our clones.
We hope you live as wonderful a life
as we have.
And we hope you find
the loves of your lives
as we have.
[SCOFFS, CHUCKLES]
[SOFT MUSIC]
That is so beautiful.
S-so does this mean our love
was always destined to happen?
Is that a good thing?
Doesn't that imply
a lack of free will?
Does it matter?
I mean, I couldn't love anyone
more than I love you.
So, if that's preprogrammed,
then I'd say that's some
pretty damn good programming.
But is it just chemical
a bunch of brain cells
telling us how to feel?
Isn't that true of every romance
when you really get down to it?
I'm not sure how I feel about that.

- Oh!
Huh.
Guys?
- You have to see this.
- That can't be good.
Could that be how much time
we have before
That's not enough time
to save a whole planet.
Well, that decides it, then.
Unless Alicia's gotten into the
Doc program and figured it out,
we have to put it back in my head.
No.
Alicia, any progress?
Alicia?
Ana?
Lieutenant Vujik, please respond.
Oh, God.
"Ark 16" is no longer in orbit.
Then where is it?
Status report.
We're 23 light-years
from our destination.
And we're sure there's
no one else on the ship?
We're doing a sweep to be sure.
