Origin (2018) s01e03 Episode Script

Bright Star

1 Someone got out of this cell.
We can't know that for certain.
You said it yourself.
Ten passengers, nine bodies.
We need to find them.
Wait.
Wait! We should head back first.
Tell the others.
We don't have time.
If someone's out here and they're infected with this thing, they're a danger to everyone.
How are we supposed to find them? We don't know our way around.
This is stuff from Cell 50.
They left a trail.
I can't see anymore.
Lana, there.
Shun, look.
They went up.
We have to search every level.
Ring 4.
Here.
Lana.
This is the level we woke up on.
So they were near us, and we didn't even know? Maybe we did.
They could look like any one of us.
You were outside the cell.
We were both outside.
- I was looking for help.
- Convenient.
- Get that gun out of my face.
- No.
I am not a liar.
Then prove it.
I woke up in the same place as you.
How am I supposed to know that? We're all strangers here.
How are any one of us supposed to prove that we're not infected? Rey.
She knows who came out of that cell.
If the person who escaped really is among us, she can identify them.
She'll know.
If you're right, that puts her in a lot of danger.
Is she gonna make it? I don't know.
Come on, Rey.
We need you.
Papa.
Papa! Good morning, crew.
It's 8:00 a.
m.
UTC, and today's wake-up call is Beethoven's 7th.
Now, get your asses out of bed.
I can't help it.
I think it every morning.
It's been What are you talking about? There's a storm on its surface that could fit three Earths inside, and you wanna compare it to a marble? I said "big-ass marble.
" See? Big-ass marble.
Find me after cell checks, yeah? Fly, my pretty.
Alert.
Passenger Code Blue.
I have a Code Blue on Cell 19.
Passenger seems to be suffering minor muscle spasms.
There's a doctor on Ring 4.
We'll send him across.
Thank you.
Officer Rey.
I'm Dr.
Taylor.
- What happened? - I don't know.
He just started twitching.
There's too much oxygen in his bloodstream.
- Too much? - It's called "hyperoxia.
" If there's an excess for too long, it can become poisonous.
It's all right.
It's all right.
You're okay.
It's okay.
You're all right.
Okay, he's stable, but it'd be worth checking on him every few hours.
At least for the next couple of days.
Every few hours? Even through the night? - Why, is that a problem? - No.
I just thought that if a passenger needed that level of care, it'd be your responsibility.
You're the Rep for this cell.
I'd have thought you want to stay close to a sick passenger.
Is it too big an ask? Young? Solar winds are almost at zero.
Captain, we're reaching the edge of the heliosphere.
Ladies and gentlemen, we've made it to the edge of interstellar space.
We move into activation soon.
Now remember, people.
The human body is not designed to travel faster than light.
This ship is.
Follow the rules.
Cell Reps, please, prepare your passengers now, then yourself.
- You okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.
The Fu Drive will be activated shortly.
All of us at SIREN wish you a safe journey into light speed.
Help me! Help me! Help! Hello? Anyone here? Hello? - Hey.
- Huh? Hey, calm down.
- It's okay.
- What's going on? Why can't I open my eyes? When you hit your head, you dented the seal around your pod.
The crack was minuscule, but I'm afraid your eyes were exposed for a few seconds.
What does that mean? FTL travel is still in its infancy.
We don't fully understand how it impacts the body.
Am I blind? I treated you as quickly as I could.
Am I fucking blind? I don't know.
- Your eyes need time to heal.
And then - And then? Then we'll find out.
Hello.
Can anyone hear me? Lana.
Henri.
Henri, you have to make sure no one finds out about Rey.
We think she might be in danger.
We're on our way.
Just keep her secret, okay? It might be a little late for that.
Thought we'd be good citizens.
Ah-ah-ah.
What do you say? Give me the water, fuckface.
Here.
I already drank some.
Drink some more.
Did you find any of the crew? Sure did.
Some engineer in Cell 50 turned up with a hole in her gut.
What? Where is she? In the medical center.
They're trying to save her life.
Okay.
And big step.
Okay, where are we? Cell 19.
Your old haunt.
Can't we go to the canteen or something? I'm breaking the rules by taking you out at all.
Okay.
First pod.
Five points if you can remember who's inside.
A woman, Asian? That's the one.
Five points to you.
So, did you give her a name? I named all my passengers.
I see them every day.
I want to feel like I know them a little.
It's amazing, really.
Everyone in here willing to leave everything behind and start a new life.
And how about this guy? Pod 6.
Pod 6 - Brown hair? - That's the one.
I reckon he's runaway royalty.
Bottomless pockets, but an empty heart.
And pod number 7.
Hmm.
Caucasian guy.
He looks like a drug dealer.
I reckon he looks spiritual.
- Priest.
- Gay priest.
Ravaged by doubt and guilt about his own sexuality.
Fled the church in search of a new beginning.
Yeah, but little did poor Donald know that Thea was full of comely men.
She can laugh.
Uh Look, um I'm sorry I came down so hard on you when we first met.
It's okay.
You weren't completely off target.
My dad, he's, uh He's sick.
Or he was when I left.
I mean, now, I don't even know if he's still alive.
I'm sorry.
I knew when I When I said goodbye to him, that he was gonna suffer, but But I went.
When I saw the passenger in the pod failing, I I don't know, it just reminded me where I should be.
Doing what we're doing, we all had to leave something behind.
You're going to get me fired with all these long visits, okay? All right.
All right, let's go.
Come on.
'Tis the season to be jolly Good night, guys.
Have fun.
Um - I brought you a gift.
- Really? For Christmas.
It's nothing special.
Thought it might pass some time.
- Sorry, I shouldn't have - It's okay.
Thank you.
Merry Christmas, Rey.
Okay.
Open your eyes.
What if I can't see anything? We'll deal with it, but we need to know.
Rey Well? I can see you.
- You can? - Yes.
- Uh How many fingers? - Two.
- How about now? - Four.
- Both eyes? - Yeah.
I mean, this one's blurrier, but I can see out of both.
Uh, pretty sure I'm not supposed to hug my patients.
Do you know that only 8,000 people have seen this part of the universe? Now it's 8,002.
Yes.
- You see that? - What? That's Alpha Centauri.
So we must be reaching the other end of interstellar space.
Not far from Thea.
I wouldn't be able to see this without you.
Yeah, thanks.
Did you Did you see anything? When we went in to light speed? What do you mean? I saw images.
Memories.
I don't know.
I read about some of SIREN's FTL experiments.
There are these things called "Closed Timelike Curves.
" They're vortices of space-time that appear at the edge of the FTL bubble.
I literally didn't understand a word you just said.
Apparently, they're like tiny time travel machines.
So in theory, you could relive moments from your past or your future.
Okay, people, remember that deactivation is still a massive disorientation for the body.
You okay, Rey? I triple-checked.
Everything's fine.
- We're slowing down, not speeding up.
- Okay.
It's not going to be like before.
Okay.
The Fu Drive will be deactivated shortly.
All of us at SIREN wish you a safe exit from light speed.
All Navigation Officers to the Control Room.
Attention! All Navigation Officers to the Control Room.
Something's wrong.
We need to go.
- What? - Rey, we need to go now.
- What's going on? - Come on.
Officer Young, what's going on? Debris tail, it's battering us.
They're penetrating the force field! There must have been a destructive event somewhere in the solar system.
There's no way we could've predicted this.
Shit.
Solar sail's been torn.
They've taken out the comms network.
We've lost contact with Thea.
- Officer.
- Impact to Ring 10.
There's a breach.
- Sealant? - Active.
Closing the gap.
Rupture's closed.
Pressure's restoring and stable.
Backup generator's kicked in.
Damage to Cell 50.
We can restore it, provided we can get the systems back online.
Captain, we have a Code Blue in Cell 50.
That's my cell.
Jesus, they've stopped breathing.
Oh, my God! What the hell just happened? It's affecting all of them.
This is now a Code Red! - We have to get down there.
- No.
We follow the protocol.
Frost, make an assessment.
Yes, ma'am.
Those are my passengers, Captain.
Taylor.
- Since when do we carry guns? - Just take it.
Taylor, be careful.
Taylor! Shit! What are we supposed to do? You watch Rey.
Wait.
Is there really a fire? Watch Rey! We'll come back for you.
Attention.
State of emergency.
Please check on your passengers.
Shit.
- What do we do? - We have to save them.
Attention.
State of emergency.
All Cell Reps, please check on your passengers.
Return to the bridge as soon as possible.
Is anybody there? Taylor.
Taylor, can you hear me? Hello? Rey.
Rey, Rey, there's something in here.
- What? - There's something in Cell 50.
What are you talking about? Taylor, talk to me.
Please, no! Okay, uh, I need your help.
Captain.
There's something wrong.
I think Taylor's been attacked in Cell 50.
- We've gotta help him.
- No one goes to Cell 50.
Lock it down.
- What? - This is a state of emergency.
We need to evacuate the Origin.
Something has come on board this ship.
The passengers in that cell are dead.
Young, please move the ship into evacuation.
- No, no, you can't do that.
- Young, now.
You can't do this! Cell Reps, evacuate your passengers.
If you want to live, get to a raft.
Captain, he, he needs help.
That cell stays sealed, Officer.
It's your duty.
I'm not leaving.
You have to.
That's an order, Rey! Officer, activate evacuation protocol.
Young, let's go.
Taylor, are you there? Ring 10.
Taylor? Taylor! Taylor! Taylor.
Taylor? Taylor? Rey? Get out of here.
Get away from me.
It's inside.
What do you mean? What am I supposed to do? Tell me.
Go.
I can't control it.
I'm not leaving you.
Taylor.
I'm sorry.
Argh! You go that way! I'll check this side.
Why aren't you with Rey? The alarm.
We thought there was a fire.
There's no fire.
We have to get to her.
Rey.
Rey.
Rey, can you hear me? Shit.
Fuck.
Oxygen level critical.
There's someone inside! Rey! Rey! Henri, hurry up.
Come on! Yes! Abigail! That man, he came out of Cell 50.
- He's gone, he's gone.
- No, no, he's infected.
Shit! I'll go find him.
You stay with her.
Shun, I should go with you.
- Are you okay? - I'm good.
- Relax.
Breathe.
- Go, go.
Go.
Hey, are you hurt? - No, I'm fine.
I'm fine.
- Slowly.
You go that way.
I'll check this side.
