-[machinery whirring, clanging] -[Kaiju shrieks]
-[thunderous clanging] -[Kaiju shrieks]
[Kaiju screeches]
[boulder thuds loudly]
[panting]
Loa, report.
No additional Kaiju are within scanning range.
For now.
Let's keep moving.
[Mei and Taylor panting]
The High Priestess will keep sending them.
She won't let us take the child away.
In a few minutes, Mom, we'll be out of her reach forever.
Hayley.
He's waking up.
Boy?
Boy, are you okay?
Do you know who I am?
-[gasps, chuckles] -[Brina sighs]
He remembers.
We got to him in time.
We're leaving the Sisters' territory now.
Next stop, Sydney Base.
[sweeping orchestral music playing]
[hissing]
[both panting]
[Loa] We should now be in communications range.
[Hayley gasps]
See, Mom? There it is.
Atlas Destroyer to Sydney Base.
-Do you read? -What if it's abandoned?
-[Hayley] No. -The whole coast could be--
They'll respond. Don't worry.
This is Atlas Destroyer calling Sydney Base.
-Do you read? -[radio beeps]
[man over radio] Atlas Destroyer, pilot identification, please.
We're… [exhales]
…survivors.
Please clarify.
We have Ranger Brina Travis aboard. She's wounded. Permission to approach.
-Proceed to Gantry 4. -[both sigh]
[exhales]
Finally.
[indistinct chatter over radio]
[aircraft passing]
[gentle music playing]
Ranger Travis?
Brina. What happened to you?
Let's save it for the debrief, Marshal.
Right now, please tell me my husband made it out.
[vehicle approaching]
Brina!
[gasps]
-Brina! -[gasping, laughing]
-[Taylor] Dad! -[Hayley] Dad!
[Brina laughing, crying]
Come here, you two.
Don't let go.
I won't.
[beeping]
What's that beeping sound?
Who cares? We made it, Mom.
We all made it.
[beeping continues]
There's nothing more for you to worry about.
-[alert beeps] -[gasps]
[beeping rapidly]
No. [sobs]
[trembling]
We love you, Mom.
Oh, Mom.
[sobbing]
-[high-pitched droning] -[Loa] All life signs have ended.
Her injuries were simply too severe.
Thanks to you both, however, she has finished well.
Thank you, Loa.
For giving our mother such a beautiful gift.
It was my honor.
[machinery whirs]
[door closes]
[somber music playing]
[wind whistles]
[sighs]
Loa? Give me the odds we'll actually make it out of here.
I no longer provide odds. Only facts.
Then what are the facts?
The High Priestess wields control over all hybrid Kaiju.
Therefore, she has us outnumbered.
[scoffs]
What am I doing?
How can I possibly pull this off?
Please clarify.
I do not have what it takes to get us out, Loa.
And why is that?
[scoffs] I don't know.
It's the story of my life?
[exhales] I never get anything right.
Only facts, please.
How about these?
The son of famous pilots flunked his Jaeger training
and lied to his family about it.
The brother tasked with protecting his little sister
couldn't keep her out of danger.
And the cadet who ghost drifted to steal a pilot's skills
had to have his sister help their mother pass away because his mind was too jacked.
No response?
No facts to relieve my guilt?
Right. [sniffles]
You don't even know what guilt is.
Guilt? I was responsible for the deaths of my previous pilots.
How so?
As the first AI built with an emotion chip,
I exhibited an unforeseen behavior.
Worry.
The odds of my pilot surviving our final mission were low.
Therefore,
I refused to go into battle.
Really?
What did they do?
They switched to manual control.
And I could do nothing but watch them fight.
And watch them die.
That kind of seems more like their fault than yours.
If I had gone into that battle fully functioning,
I could have perhaps kept them alive.
So, yes,
I do know what guilt is.
I guess we both failed those we loved.
[sniffling]
Thank you.
For?
Not saying anything and just sitting with me.
Well, sitting sullenly is what I do best.
It's a nice change.
Having a sister.
[soft music playing]
[Sisters] By the power of the Kaiju.
-[ominous music plays] -So shall it be. So shall it be.
So shall it be. So shall it be.
[High Priestess] Sisters of the Kaiju, the reign of the Messiah has come.
[Sisters] For the glory of the beast. In the service of the gods.
For the glory of the beast. In the service of the gods.
By the power of the Kaiju.
-[panting] -For the glory of the beast.
In the service of the gods.
-By the power of the Kaiju. -[shuddering]
-Boy, it's okay. It's me. -[chanting continues]
You remember me, don't you?
For the glory of the beast. In the service of the gods.
-By the power of the Kaiju. -[gasps, roars]
For the glory of the beast. In the service of the gods.
-We didn't save him in time. -No! No, that can't be. Boy!
[Sisters] So shall it be.
-So shall it be. So shall it be. -[growls]
-He's mutating. Get him outside! -In Ichor and bone, acid and fang.
-[growls] -[screams]
[Sisters] That we may be worthy. That we may attend.
So shall it be.
-Boy! No! Stop! -So shall it be! So shall it be!
[screaming] No! No!
-[booming] -See us. Know us.
Call us. Free us. Master Savior.
[roaring]
[tense music plays]
[grunting]
Boy, no! Stop! [grunts]
[groaning]
[screeches]
-[Mei] What?! -[Taylor grunts]
[groaning]
Boy! Stop!
-[music rises, stops] -[grunts]
[grunting]
[roars]
[Sisters] Your will is our bidding.
Your carnage, our rite.
Your scions, our destiny.
-[growling] -Rend, destroy, devour.
-Rend, destroy, devour! -[grunts]
Rend, destroy, devour!
[roaring]
[High Priestess] Messiah, we welcome you.
Now, crush your enemy.
[dramatic music playing]
[clanging, booming]
[screeches]
Don't hurt him!
It's him or us!
[grunts]
No! Stop! Stop!
What are you doing?
-Hayley! Back off! -[Hayley grunts]
[growls]
[roars]
[panting, grunting]
Impacts are threatening hull integrity.
Loa, activate Saber Chain.
No! Taylor, please!
[Apex roars]
[metallic screeching]
What's Apex doing here?
[exciting music building]
Who cares? He's trying to save us.
Not us. Boy.
[footsteps approaching loudly]
[powering up]
[trilling]
[power thrums]
That scanning beam.
He was using it last time to see our memories.
Is he trying to give them back?
[Loa] It appears that is exactly what Apex is attempting to do.
[grunting]
[bang echoes]
[High Priestess] Fight it, Messiah. The creature seeks to defile your soul.
Our savior needs us.
Fill him with prayers.
We must shield his mind from bane and corruption.
[Sisters] Your will is our bidding.
Your carnage, our rite.
Your scions, our destiny.
Your will is our bidding.
Your carnage, our rite.
-Your scions, our destiny. -[roaring]
Rend, destroy, devour.
Rend, destroy, devour!
[Taylor] Boy! Don't!
We need to pull them apart.
[powering down]
[thuds loudly]
[grunting]
Warning. Cascade failure due to rhomboid servo damage.
-Shut it down and reset. -Affirmative.
[powering down]
Hurry!
[beeps]
[Apex roars]
[metallic screeching]
[beeping]
Come on! Come on. Come on.
[screeching]
[snarls]
[growling]
[metal clanging]
-[beeping] -[Hayley inhales sharply]
[gasps]
System reset successful. Rhomboid servos back online.
Let's move.
[crashing]
[Hayley] Apex! We'll hold him. Finish it!
[roars]
[clanging]
[Boy grunting]
-[powering up] -[snarls]
-[growls, grunts] -[power thrums]
[ethereal music playing]
[snarls]
[panting]
[growls]
[powering down]
[screech fading]
[roaring]
Apex did it. We have Boy again.
Welcome back.
[chimes, beeps]
Loa, what's wrong with the scanner?
[Loa] Exterior array has sustained damage.
You've gotta have another way of tracking incoming Kaiju. Right?
Negative.
Then we won't see anything coming at us.
Not from any distance. Only what is visible through the visor.
Wait. The scout tank. Joel installed a scanner.
Let's grab it and get out of here.
[tense music plays]
Sound the call.
Our Messiah has been taken from us.
And those responsible will pay.
-[horns blowing in distance] -[all gasp]
[Mei] The Sisters! They're here!
[horns resounding]
Which means Kaiju aren't far behind.
Let's go!
Boy! They're coming for us.
We need to leave here.
[Mei] Please, Boy. We have to hurry!
[grunts]
[somber music plays]
[sighs] Loa, how long before we reach Sydney Base if we run as fast as possible?
17 hours, 48 minutes, 11 seconds. Uninterrupted.
If we trade off, we can do this. Right?
I know I can.
[Boy growls]
