Inside The Expanse s02e13 Episode Script

Season 2, Episode 13

It's digging into the bulkhead.
Why? The protomolecule feeds on radiation.
That thing's trying to get to the reactor.
If it punctures the chamber We're more or less ------.
The great thing about episode thirteen Everything that happens in the episode, happens almost in the span of minutes, or maybe hours.
It's running out of time, running out of options, and trying to find a way out of it.
Is there a plan B? Yeah.
Make sure plan A works.
We really get to see the crew coming together to solve an incredible problem, and doing that in the context of where they've come emotionally, and in their relationships to each other.
At the end of season two, you see the very beginnings of Holden actually becoming a secure leader.
This is about redeeming himself, when he lets that go.
That allows him to actually become the leader that the people around him need him to be.
Amos! Fall back! Amos, you're losing air.
You need to get out of here now.
Get out of here! You're no good to anyone dead.
I think Amos makes the decision there, that he'll do whatever it takes to protect the ship, to protect the rest of his family.
He knows that he is willing to sacrifice Holden for this ship.
In case I have to kill you, I just wanted to say thanks.
You made some pretty stupid choices since you've been in charge, but you were always trying to do the right thing.
Did you kill that thing from the lab? No.
And it doesn't matter.
I almost traded your lives to do it.
This does not sound like the man I walked away from on Ganymede.
It won't happen again.
In episode thirteen, it's the first time she sees him come a little bit back towards the light, from why she leaves him.
She feels like she has to let him know.
I have something I need to say to you.
I think it's been eating away at her, and I think she realizes that she can't be so righteous in her own right with him about honesty, and having them secrets, and then having one herself.
Earth has it.
Mars has it.
And the Belt needs it, too.
I didn't destroy our sample.
The idea of keeping the protomolecule and the power that it represents, is an acknowledgment that the genie is out of the bottle.
That this is a thing in the world now.
Not just for her, and for Holden, and for the Rocinante, but for everybody.
Naomi.
What did you do? It absolutely is creating another wedge between her and Holden.
This is a big choice that she makes, because everybody else on this ship is in agreement.
I gave the protomolecule to Fred Johnson.
We just picked up a massive EM uptick.
I think the crater is moving.
The first time I read "Caliban's War", I felt like this was the perfect place to end season two, with this image, because I just thought it was incredible, that the Arboghast is literally pulled apart, like a technical drawing, and these people were inside it, just dying.
It's just a shockingly cool image.
And when were able to tie it together to the other elements in this show, it felt like the right place to end season two.
