Your family is irrelevant.

What did you just say?

They are irrelevant to this mission.

We are going to OriGen now.

We are behind schedule.

Your father can transport the pupa here.

I'll be back in three days.

To build the machine,

I have to convert Newton's design,

a design requiring translation

from Anthean to human mathematics,

from Anthean to human component parts,

parts that would routinely be
assembled by Anthean drones.

Humans are not as efficient.

They ask questions.
They have needs.

None of which I am interested in.

That is why he sent me to you.

You do not have permission to go.

Don't ever say that to me again.

Okay?

Well, your family was probably

Keep your savage, clumsy,

bestial Earth hands

- to yourself!
- Ooh!

[WATT LAUGHS]

Anger.

[LAUGHS]

Why?

Why, what?

Newton...

Humans...

Why didn't he tell me?

But, he did.

Day one, planet Earth...

BOTH: "Humans."

"You have to let the virus in."

"Again."

He said, "Again."

You were too "drone" to hear it.

- f*ck off!
- Good.

[CHUCKLES]

- What else is pissing you off?
- Mission.

You're failing the mission.

'Cause those little f*cking
memories you're having...

You left your family behind.

Now that it's clear, that Newton
bet on the wrong drone,

it's starting to hit you,

that you'll never see them again.

You're down here,

failing on this slutty little planet,

and, your kids are up there, dying.

You've been failing down here.

Failing for what?
Maybe...

Maybe, they're already dead.

Maybe, you left them behind to wither and die,

so, you could fly across the galaxy,

just to f*ck it all up.

Feel, that, sh*t.

[YELLS]

[LAUGHING]

Oh, yeah.

[GRUNTS]

Come on, look at this.

Come on, watch this.

LISA: What the f*ck?

- Whee! Ooh, la, la.
- Stop!

[GRUNTS]

Stop!

- Ooh, toys.
- Stop!

Yummy-yummy-yum.

FARADAY: Stop it!

Stop it!

Ooh, I like...

[WATT CHUCKLES]

- [GRUNTS] No!
- This is good.

No!
No!

Baby, I like it raw

Yeah, baby

- [YELLS]
- [GRUNTS]

[YELLS]

You're...

Not...

Real...

Only if you are.

How real are you?

[MUMBLING]
Where are we going?

You're a drone, aren't you?

Ta-da!

No, no, you can't have
an existential crisis...

That's a nice hat.

WATT: Thirty thousand feet.

Took you long enough.

Careful.

The air is thinner up here.

[CHUCKLES]

[LAUGHS]

[LAUGHING]

Hmm.

How did you fix it?

I didn't.

He broke the cage.

Really?
What happened?

LISA: When the screens came
back on, the damage was done.


He was talking to himself.

He solved it.

He solved what?

The design.

He knows how to build it.

Sir...

I think he might be losing his mind.

[CHUCKLES]

[SIGHS]

What the hell happened to you?

I figured it out.

JUSTIN: Who b*at the sh*t out of you?

FARADAY: I was banging
my head against a wall.


Wait, are you making a joke right now?

Who are you?

I don't know.

But, I figured out the design.

How to build it.

I know what it's supposed to look like now.

There are several steps,
but, we can get started.

Yeah, there's still the fuel problem.

Tritium is not gonna work.

Perhaps I can conjure another delusion.

So, I was...

Banging my head
against a brick wall last night, too.

Somewhat more figuratively.

What is this?

I think...

It's the reason you were sent to find me.

After the accident I was, uh,

researching an alternative,
more stable fuel source.

I wrote an equation to use hydrogen-boron

in place of tritium.

But, this equation, we'd have
to find a way to simplify it.


Which I've never done,
because no computer can handle it.


So essentially,

the one thing I could never solve,

is pretty much our only hope.

You imagined all this,

from nothing.

Yeah.

You...

Are extraordinary.

Uh...
What?

Where is your daughter?

[WHIRRING]

That's, impressive.

I like it.

FARADAY: Did you know,

what you were going to build,

before you started?

Not really.

I kinda started, and then figured it out.

What happened to your face?

Oh, I fell.

I'm fine.

Where I'm from,

once you reach your first maturation cycle,

you either become an adept,

or a drone, depending on the abilities,

you've shown up until that point.

And after that, a drone,

doesn't have to consider emotions.

There's an answer for everything.

It's very...

Binary.

You...

Are the opposite,

of binary.

You,

have the potential for all things.

I'm sorry...

Pupa.
