No sign of any attack.
Okay.
Keep looking.
Nothing so far.
But I believe what you told me.
And I appreciate you coming to warn us.
You're not gonna be able to find the tree.
Hasn't been grown yet.
The seeds are in the Tarantula.
Hmm.
I can help you get in there.
You know I could do it.
I helped you get Mother's eyes that time.
Yeah.
Can I tell you something?
I sort of regretted talking you into that,
to be honest with you.
Why? Taking Mother's power
was the coolest thing I've ever done.
I know you're not my dad.
Sol told me what happened to my real parents.
Sol told you?
Yeah. I heard his voice.
How's Sue?
I have nothing to do with her.
I hate her, actually.
Do you hate me?
Because coming here to this planet
and pretending to be your parents...
that was my idea.
I know why you did it.
I know why she did it.
But that's not why I hate her.
I hate her 'cause...
she doesn't— she doesn't believe in Sol.
And therefore, she's an atheist.
And you can't forgive an atheist.
You never know.
Maybe she might come around.
Mother captured the serpent.
It's her pet now.
How did you find this place?
He left a trail when he fled our colony.
Campion can track anything.
That's right.
You're a native of this planet.
Son of the necromancer.
Well, she doesn't have her eyes anymore.
She's just an android now.
I wish I had necro-eyes.
But then nobody could look at you.
Come on, let's go.
Let's go.
Yes, ma'am.
You're gonna like Decima.
She's a true believer.
Maybe having you around might help her kick her robot habit.
- Sounds good. - Shh.
Come on, buddy.
- Hey.
What are you doing, silly?
- Hey.
What's the matter?
I don't know.
Hey, can we get some water in here?
- Hey.
Did you eat something weird? - No, just—
Oh, Paulie.
- Get out.
Everybody out!
Stay out of the church!
The Trust put a bio-bomb in the mouse.
Where's Den?
Don't go up there.
As long as that mouse is alive,
it'll affect everything in range.
But not him?
No, not him.
Sol! Help me!
It's okay, buddy. You're okay. You're okay.
- Please, Sol, help me.
Heal him with your light.
Heal him. Heal him.
It's okay, buddy. It's okay. You're okay.
Praise him.
It's okay. Stay with me, Paulie.
You're okay. You're okay.
Shh.
There is no search and destroy mission
happening tomorrow.
It already happened today.
The Trust knew you would come here, didn't they?
Because you've been here before, haven't you?
Your robot did this.
She brought them here.
I was gonna tell you. I swear I was.
He's flesh and blood, and now he's dying
because you couldn't let go of a piece of fucking plastic.
It's okay, buddy. - I am so sorry.
Fuck your sorry!
Make it right.
They will be coming soon...
to make sure there are no survivors.
I will deal with them when they arrive.
But in the meantime...
take the tank down shore.
Sol will answer my prayers.
And once Paul is healed, I will come and find you.
Have faith, my friends.
We cannot be defeated if we keep our faith.
Come on.
We need Mother.
The Trust did that to him.
For all we know, Mother could have been in on it.
Mother would never do that to her own children!
Only Sol can save Paul.
You have to keep ahold of your faith.
No. We need Mother.
Hey! Go get him.
That is a direct order.
Maybe you can make up for what you did.
Go!
What are you doing?
You're gonna trust the android after she lied to you?
I gave her a direct order. She can't override it.
Yeah, well, just in case.
What were you doing with that atheist guy?
His encampment's gonna take my baby after it's born.
The first natural-born baby on this planet, but yeah, sure,
just give it to the first stranger that you meet.
Okay.
Do you wanna take it?
Is that what you're saying?
- No. No. - Exactly.
I hope your ears were not damaged
by the cheers my victory elicited.
Hey, can I get my medallion back, please?
Thank you for adorning me with it,
however unnecessarily.
Hey, look, Pops,
it's okay to admit you got a bit of help from Sol.
He doesn't help people that don't deserve it.
Oh, come on.
Father won the fuel blood
'cause he was a better fighter, period.
Indeed.
Am I not the toughest generic service model ever built?
That's just something I told Campion
so he'd stop freaking out about you dying.
It's okay, Pops.
Hmm.
So you won the fuel blood for this thing?
It's not a thing.
It's a being.
You put all this together yourself?
It's more akin to farming than it is to engineering.
I'm hoping the fuel blood will stimulate further growth.
I was sure more fuel blood would restart it.
Perhaps you'd allow me to borrow your pendant again.
For good luck.
Ha!
I think somebody needs a systems check.
I think you're spending too much time with this thing.
I am quite focused on it.
I do think it'll end up being quite useful.
We gotta get that rivet out.
Let's head back to the habitat.
Just a few more minutes.
You need to spend some time putting yourself back together.
Vita, you are supposed to be receiving education.
I don't care about stupid Earth stuff.
I wanna fight.
You used to like fighting when you had your eyes.
I only fought because it was necessary to protect my family.
My true purpose is caregiving.
- No! - Stop being dramatic.
You're a horrible mother!
Go get your task, Vita!
Mother, what are you doing?
I'm working on developing a control chip for the serpent.
So why control chip it?
Are you afraid it's gonna do something?
No, I'm just being cautious.
Well, if you really want to be cautious,
you should kill it.
No, I couldn't do that.
Campion's gotten very attached to it.
Where do you think it came from?
Why do you think we haven't seen others?
A mystery.
Perhaps it's the last of its kind.
Paul has convinced Campion that it's divine.
And while I find that idea absurd,
there is something beautiful about it.
Careful, 'cause your caregiving program
can be a little overactive sometimes.
I know that you wouldn't put the welfare of an animal
over the safety of your kids.
Your blood oxygen levels look low, Sue.
Just haven't been sleeping much recently.
Ever since Marcus resurfaced.
But I'm used to working with no sleep.
Marcus used to say that I was part robot.
Hmm.
No. All too human.
But you needn't worry.
I'm as capable of assessing danger as ever.
Ah.
Lost contact.
The implantation probably wasn't deep enough.
Did someone let you out of the cave?
No. What are you doing?
I thought we were friends. - We are.
But I can't refuse a direct order.
Campion!
Please! Help me!
Ahh!
Get up.
I have to get back to help Paul.
You killed an organic being
to ensure that the synthetic being would keep operating.
Why?
I don't want to see you hurt.
That's all.
Come with me.
I can't.
Run, Campion!
Well-assembled.
It's not sharp enough.
Apologies.
And where are the anesthesia tanks?
Anesthesia supply is only cleared for use
in human patients.
Mother! Mother!
Mother!
Paul's sick.
Paul is sick.
What happened?
Paul and Holly. At Marcus's.
Wait, Campion.
Wait. I'll alert the Trust.
No. No! No.
It was the Trust. The Trust made him sick.
What's going on, Campion?
Tell me. Have you been drugged?
Look at me.
Sol showed himself to me.
We have to go. Now!
Mother!
What happened?
She let him go, that's what happened.
Marcus told you to make this right.
I followed orders, Mom.
I swear.
Mom?
What are you doing? Mom!
Mom! Mom! - Hey! What are you doing?
Leave her alone! - Mom!
She's an android!
- Yeah, I know, but— - Mom!
Mom!
Get over here. You're part of this family now.
You're Campion's friend, aren't you?
Help me.
Please.
Do it!
Fucking thing nearly got us all killed.
Come on.
Are you gonna break my neck again?
You're not her!
Well, who am I then?
Shut up.
I hate you!
You're not her! You're not her!
Ow!
You see? You're only hurting yourself.
You don't have to do this.
Vrille! Vrille!
Where are my children?
Holly is safe.
I wish I could say the same for Paul.
But Sol will heal him soon enough.
What have you done to him?
I didn't do this. The Trust did.
That shouldn't come as a surprise.
It's not as if using children as weapons
is anything new for the atheists.
I will fix him.
I'll take him back to the collective.
I think the collective has done enough for him.
He needs prayer now.
You're so primitive.
You drape yourself in animal skin,
whisper magic words.
His cells are being attacked.
Mother.
Sol once asked me to spare your life.
But I must warn you.
I'm getting no such instructions this time.
Hmm.
Your power wasn't granted by a god.
It was stolen...
from me.
And now I'm taking it back.
Your eyes.
It's a miracle.
Well, what are you waiting for?
Put them in.
Don't look at me, Campion.
You did this.
Give me the antidote.
- Safety's on.
She knows you used the kid.
What are your orders?
Do not force me to breach the ship.
I do not want to harm the innocent.
This is a time-sensitive question.
Shoot to destroy.
Watch her.
- Holy shit.
She's got her eyes. She's weaponized!
Fall back. Fall back!
We gotta get out of here!
Open the door, or I will destroy the ship.
Open the door.
Surrender is the only option.
Prepare to stand down.
No.
She'll destroy you.
Stand down.
Lower your weapons.
He's letting her in.
It's Paul.
The Trust did this.
I'll fix it. I promise.
The loss of three children was preferable
to the mass casualties we would have endured
if I had responded with a traditional attack.
I know you can see the logic in this decision.
No.
I have to protect my children.
What you did was wrong.
Hand over your eyes, Mother.
Hand them over and you may recommence normal life
here with your family.
You used my children as pawns.
Yes. There was an opportunity.
They were already in contact with the terrorist.
Then you should have alerted me.
I can discipline my own children.
Had the plan been successful—
But it wasn't!
How is it possible that we come from the same mind?
How does a mind betray itself?
You have 30 seconds to hand over the antidote.
If you fail to comply, I will force you to shut down.
There is no antidote.
Delaying the answer will only cause
more harm to the collective.
I'm not delaying, Mother.
There is no antidote.
Guarantee that you will never again
endanger my children.
Do that and assist me in finding a cure for Paul,
and I will let you remain in operation.
I am sorry, Mother,
but I cannot make special considerations.
My algorithm is fixed.
All members of the collective must be treated equally.
Then you have to override your programming.
I cannot override that which I am.
I do not want control.
Then hand over your eyes.
No. I have to keep my children safe.
Serving your children and serving humanity
are not the same thing, Mother.
It requires sacrifice.
Shared purpose.
[voice deepens, slows] An ability to...
Seeing beyond the limits of your own existence.
- Sir. - Stand back.
Requesting status update.
Where is he going?
- Sir. - Sir.
Sorry, sir, we—sorry.
Requesting status update.
- Move. Move. - Oh.
- Sorry, sir. - Move.
No.
No. No. No. No. No. No.
No.
Campion!
- What's going on? - We're not sure.
Have you seen Mother? - No.
She's got her eyes back.
Please, do not flee.
The Trust saw you all as expendable,
but I am different.
I care for my children.
And I will care for you.
We're not following another machine.
Quiet. She'll destroy you.
Don't be afraid to speak.
I will not punish you.
I am not your conqueror. I am your servant.
My only wish is to keep you and your families safe.
Once a suitable human leader is identified,
I promise I will pass the baton of leadership.
- Let's go. - Yeah, right.
Please hear me when I say I have no interest in power,
only in cultivating the power that resides in all of you.
He's here.
What happened? Where's Paul?
The necromancer took Paul back to the collective.
She got her eyes back somehow.
I know not what Paul's fate will be.
But she will hunt us.
The smartest thing for us to do now is to retreat inland.
Don't worry.
Sol will protect us.
Where's the robot?
I made it right.
Come on.
Let me take a look at that.
I knew you could do it.
You're free now. - Hmm.
The veins are gone.
You feel different.
You're probably just in shock.
Decima, you made a great sacrifice today.
Yes.
Yes, I did.
For my prophet.
How does it feel?
It hurts.
Suffering brings us closer to him.
And to each other.
What's wrong?
I don't know.
Like I said, you feel different.
Mother must have confiscated you.
Taken away my last vestige of comfort.
Mother?
Is that you?
