Talk? Talk about what?
You deliberately missed our escape window.
It's okay. We're good, all right?
The escape vector comes up again
after another full orbit.
That gives us enough time to just sort this out.
Sort what out, Samy?
We were supposed to go home!
Yeah, I wanna go home now!
Why didn't you flip the switch?
[Mission Control cheering]
-You guys are coming home! -We knew you could do it!
[Lind] You have no idea
how fantastic it is to see your faces!
Really great job, guys.
Amazing.
Hi, Dad.
Dad, guess what?
We're still alive.
Nice work, guys.
-Awesome! -You crushed it!
I don't even have any words.
For once.
[laughter] -Will...
Okay, guys, status?
We're in a stable orbit,
and all systems are go for an escape thrust,
but...
we didn't make the escape window.
Why not? What happened?
Um...
Uh...
we're getting some weird fuel pressure readings.
Scrubbed to run diagnostics.
[Lind] Okay, good call. Better safe than sorry,
but you're only good for one more orbit
based on your fuel reserves,
so it's critical you punch out
at the next window, understood?
[Samy] Roger that.
Oh...
There is one more thing.
Oh, my God.
That can't possibly be...
It's an extraterrestrial spacecraft.
It's a fragment of one, at least.
[♪♪♪]
I think we should at least consider
completing the mission.
-What? -Get out!
-Cool... -I wanna go home!
I know. I wanna go home, too,
but we gotta at least talk about this.
Just hear me out.
[typing]
Right, see this bluish trail here?
That's an exhaust plume.
This part is an engine,
and it hasn't run out of fuel
in what, thousands,
maybe millions of years?
A limitless energy source
that not only could improve billions of lives
back on Earth,
but enable us to explore new solar systems.
Guys!
It's the warp drive from an alien starship!
Oh, my god, if we were to bring that bad boy home,
that'd be the biggest thing anyone has done since...
ever.
We'd make history.
[Elliot] Or be history.
That's true.
It is super dangerous,
and it's a miracle we've gotten this far
and survived,
but Kamohoali'i's within reach, you guys,
and once she's gone, she's gone forever.
This isn't their mission anymore.
It's ours.
This is on us.
We've come all this way,
and for what...?
To only run half the race?
To not cross the finish line?
It does make it all seem kinda pointless.
Yeah,
so is this conversation without exit coordinates
to Kamohoali'i, and without them,
we'll never lock into its position.
We could restart Matilda.
I still have the instructions Singer sent up.
All we'd have to do is run it backwards--
Dude!
She already smoked you once.
Do you really think
she's gonna be in a good mood
when she wakes up?
My guess is that she'll be super cranky.
-Right. -She won't hurt me.
Okay? She's changed, guys.
Yeah, sure, she already zapped me once,
but she also brought me back,
and in the end,
she let me pull the plug.
Please.
Matilda can get us there.
I understand that, but...
we can't trust her.
Not completely,
not with our lives.
After what she did to you, I just...
We can't.
It's too dangerous.
We're out of options, Samy.
Unless you can think of something else.
Wait...
Why don't we just ask Mission Control
for the coordinates?
Our parents?
What do we have to lose?
I mean, the worst they could say is--
No! Absolutely not!
-Excuse me? -Are you kidding?
That's crazy.
We want to complete the mission.
We've decided that as a crew.
Oh, so you've decided.
The answer is still--
Let her finish.
Go on.
We're listening.
You've all been with us every step of the way,
and you've seen what we've faced together.
How we've worked together and grown as a team,
and we know the rendezvous with Kamohoali'i is dangerous,
but we also know what's at stake,
for everyone back on Earth,
and...
I think you guys do, too.
Forget it.
Hey, hold on.
Uh, baby, you've just thrown a lot at us,
and we're gonna need some time to process it--
Oh, I don't need to process anything.
-[whispering] That was good. -The answer is no!
Okay, guys, we're gonna contact you
as soon as we've made a decision
one way or the other.
-This is insanity! -Mission Control, out.
That was not great.
The answer is still no.
Okay, everybody, hold on!
We're down here, they're up there.
They've earned their wings.
We need to respect that,
and maybe we need to let them
make this decision for themselves.
You call that parenting?
I mean, maybe if you had enforced
a little bit of discipline,
your son wouldn't have dragged our kids
into that ship in the first place--
Whoa, whoa, what makes you think it was Elliot's fault--
Okay, enough! That is enough.
This isn't helping.
The fact is, everything Samy said is true.
This is about more than just our kids.
Not for me.
Or me.
I get that.
I do, but they made a decision,
a rational, selfless, informed,
adult decision,
to put themselves in harm's way
for the greatest discovery in the history of humankind,
and not because we didn't do our jobs as parents...
but because we did them too well.
That's a very nice speech,
and I do appreciate the sentiment, Becca,
but I'm not in the For All Humankind business.
None of us are.
They're our kids,
and it's our job to protect them.
It's time to bring them home.
Becca...
Yeah.
Okay, then.
They only have one set of exit coordinates
and one option...
to come home.
Come on, come on, let us be heroes...
We're less than a minute out from the dark side,
and we'll lose ground communications.
They're leaving us with no choice but to go home.
[console beeps]
Incoming text message...
from your mom.
Are those...?
Exit coordinates to Kamohoali'i.
[all cheering] Yes!
Let's go! I can't believe it!
I knew they'd see it our way.
Oh, please.
[laughing]
High five, over here!
Okay, guys, guys...
entering escape coordinates.
This chair sucks.
Confirm...
Confirming coordinates,
and...
engaging.
[alerts blare, ship rumbling]
What?
Auto re-entry?
What's that mean?
I dunno, like autopilot?
Um, trajectory reset, I guess.
What? No!
Whoa! This does not feel right.
[Samy] No.
This feels seriously wrong.
El, are you sure
you entered the right coordinates?
Yes, I entered the exact coordinates
that your mom sent.
See for yourself.
What's happening?
We're losing altitude.
We're dropping out of orbit.
We're gonna crash!
Velocity 920 meters per second.
Altitude 700 kilometers and falling.
Projected impact with planet...
46 minutes.
We're gonna die in 46 minutes?
At this speed?
Nah.
We burn up way before we crash.
Not helpful!
Sorry, it's just physics.
Can you exit?
Override auto-sequence?
I'm trying.
Flight controls are dead.
Avionics are all locked up.
Martin, how about you, any luck with comms?
No. Communication dead.
Zero bars.
We're on our own.
I don't understand.
Why would my mom send up the wrong coordinates?
It doesn't make any sense!
It was a transmission from the Helios network.
It could have been sent by anybody with access.
Someone down there wants us dead.
[Will] It must be a hack!
It could've been a mistake.
It's crazy Uncle Singer!
[seat hydraulics hissing]
What are you doing?
We have to reactivate Matilda.
Just ten minutes ago,
you said it was too dangerous.
Ten minutes ago, we weren't crashing!
She's the only one who can override the auto-pilot.
Watch the systems.
If anything goes sideways, coordinate fixes.
The rest of you are with me.
-Copy that. -Copy that.
Good luck.
[Samy] Doria? Martin?
Stand ready in the hub and await orders as needed.
Roger that!
Will, I'll do the reconnect.
Reverse Singer's steps on your tablet.
Talk me through each step.
But, I can--
Will, no!
You're not going back in there.
If anyone's gonna get zapped, it's me.
I'm sorry, but that's an order.
Are you sure?
There's another suit. I can help!
[Singer] All right, Samy, we're almost there.
Step 17.
At the center of the core...
She's inside. Status?
Checking the systems we still have online.
[alerts blaring]
Velocity 980 meters per second.
Altitude 625 kilometers.
Projected impact, 36 minutes.
Samy, you in position?
Yeah. Will?
Let's roll.
There's a big 64-pin plug.
Do you see it?
Okay... I'm going.
I can't hear you.
The socket is dead center.
It's dead center of the main board.
[Samy breathing hard]
Tell me that you've got it.
I got it, I got it!
Okay...

Good luck.
Good luck, Martin.
Elliot, what's going on?
We're going deeper into the atmosphere,
and it's getting pretty intense up here.
Samy, you've gotta speed it up.
We've got 19 minutes and eight more steps to go.
Okay, I'm working as fast as I can.
[Matilda] Samy... is that you?
Yeah, Matilda, it's me!
Yeah, it's me.
[Matilda] I could see and hear you,
but I couldn't talk.
[Will] Samy, this feels--
We're crashing.
[Matilda] Are we?
I can't feel the ship anymore, Samy.
I've been dreaming.
I missed you.
I missed you, too,

[Matilda] Yes, Samy?
We need your help.
Can you help us?
I'm sorry.
Sorry for turning you off, for all of it.
I shouldn't have lied to you.
I shouldn't have betrayed you.
[Matilda] Samy,
Will taught me what it means to forgive.
There is a way to reconnect me more efficiently,
but it will require
a simultaneous reboot of the OBC subsystems
in the spine, the habitat,
and adjacent to the ladder in the CPU chamber.
Adjacent to the ladder, Will, do you see it?
Yeah! On my way.
Elliot...
get Doria and Martin into position.
[Elliot] Martin, you need to crack
the OBC subsystem in the greenhouse!
If you look up, you should be able to find it.
We don't have a lot of time, you've gotta do it right now.
I'm on it.
Doria, head down to the spine.
Access the OBC substation
and wait for instructions.
Copy that.
External temperature,
2700 degrees Kelvin and rising!
She's breaking up!
Time to impact?
[Elliot] Four minutes and 13 seconds!
Guys, there's nothing else more I can do!
Oh, my god.
Elliot, get a grip!
Martin, Doria!
Are you guys in position?
Access panels open?
I've got it open!
Almost there.
I'm in!
Will, are you in position?
[Will] Opening it now.
I've got it open.
Okay...
each of you should see a heat shield
with black and yellow stripes.
You mean like the one
that says, "Danger, heat shield, do not remove?"
Yes!
Now, remove it.
I knew she was going to say that.
I see the switch.
All set. What now?
Matilda!
Now what do we do?
[Matilda] Throw the switches into the off position.
Okay, we have to switch it off.
-What? -She says to switch it off.
Copy that.
[Samy] Hold on, guys!
[Matilda] Synchronized coordination is critical.
Margin for error, zero.
Two minutes, 37 seconds to impact.
[Matilda] On my mark, you must all throw the switches
into the "on" position simultaneously.
God, oh, my god, okay.
Guys, we have to turn them back on together!
Stand by for my mark!
-Doria, I love you. -[Matilda] Ten, nine...
Hold!
I love you too, big brother.

What did you do?
How did you do that?
I didn't do anything.
[Matilda] No. I did.
[all cheering] Matilda!
[♪♪♪]
Yes!
[all laughing and gasping in relief]
I thought we were going to die.
Whoa...
What maniac was flying this thing, anyway?
Samy!
Are you okay?
[Doria] We made it!
[relieved laughter]
[Matilda] No one was piloting the spacecraft, Samy.
A malicious ignition sequence was engaged
that placed us on an impact trajectory
with Venus.
[Samy] You mean
somebody sent those numbers up
on purpose?
Like sabotage?
[Matilda] Yes, Samy.
It was a deliberate attempt to destroy Odyssey II.
-Destroy us? -Crazy Uncle Singer!
It was crazy Uncle Singer!
[Matilda] But I've overridden it
and set coordinates for Earth.
Due to the increased speed we gained
in the low-orbit slingshot,
you'll be safely home in 68 days.
Wait!
I thought you were all about the mission.
[Matilda] Yes, I was,
but I've learned that there are more important things
than the mission.
Life.
To take a life is the greatest wrong.
I am so sorry.
I was wrong to bring you all here
against your will.
But we don't want to go home!
We wanna finish the mission.
[Matilda] I'm sorry, Martin,
but I can't.
I've calculated the crew's odds of survival,
and the risk to your lives is unacceptable.
Prepare for gravity thrust.
Wait.
You're right.
Life is important,
but so is the right to choose.
You said it yourself.
You were wrong to bring us up here
against our choice.
[Matilda] Yes. Very wrong.
Yes, but sometimes
people choose
to risk their own lives
to save others.
Yeah.
We've come so far.
This mission
could save many lives back on Earth.
Yeah.
We choose to do this.
[Matilda] This is your choice?
To endanger yourselves for the sake of others?
Yes!
Yeah! We totally wanna do it!
Definitely!
Ditto! Double ditto.
[Matilda] Is this true for all of you?
Uh...
Uh, yeah, Matilda?
[Matilda] Yes, Elliot?
Just out of curiosity,
what are the odds of survival?
-Oh, man! -Really?
Come on!
[Matilda] 54.7%.
That's good.
I mean, that's great.
That's only a 45.3% death rate.
Well, it's better than even.
[Matilda] Way better.
Who can argue with that?
Yeah, I'm in.
Done deal!
[Will] Awesome!
[Martin] I knew you had it in you.
What is that supposed to mean?
You're like one of my little plant babies.
I've been able to, like, watch you grow,
and, like, you know,
you've really been evolving
on the course of this mission
into this amazing human being.
Hold on, guys.
We have to remember,
it's all of us,
or it's none of us.
Matilda...
do you want to complete the mission?
[Matilda] All of us or none of us?
You think I'm...
one of us?
Yes!
[Martin] Definitely.
Yeah, totally one of us.
Yes.
[Matilda] Then my choice
is to follow your lead.
-[all cheering] Yes! -Yes!
Guys, we're going to Kamohoali'i!
That's some sad stuff.
[chair hydraulics hissing]
Matilda, set a course for Kamohoali'i.
Yes, Captain.
Approaching the escape vector.
All right, then.
Let's do this.
Copy that.
[Will] Copy.
I'm ready to just sit here
and watch.
Again.
Copy that...
Captain.
Will! Again?
Sorry, I just gotta do this.
