02x06 - Day 1

[bunniefuu]

Thought I saw Bea.
You didn't, not really.

Who's that?

Louis said we're billions of light
years away from Earth.

Find anything?

Who are you?

To understand a machine...

..you just open it up, look inside

and it tells you exactly what it is.

What did you do?!

Nothing!

That happened by itself?

No, I found more symbols.

Where? And they just opened up like
that?

Those are cryo-chambers.

Something was inside those things.

DOOR SLAMS

We don't say anything about this!

When we enter the Artefacts, it
teleports us to a spaceship.

It's big, like a warehouse with all
four Alternates inside it.

And beneath it, that's where they
run things.

I found the symbols down there.

How do we get to see it, the
spaceship?

We can't, not any more.

We can't? Why not?

It closed, it doesn't matter.

It was empty, it seemed deserted.

Those Artefacts - I think
that's where they came from.

Can all groups please converge

in the loading bay for the second
challenge.

All groups, please converge in the

loading bay for the second
challenge.

LIGHTS PULSE

Today's challenge will be
in Phoenix's Alternate.

Last one to touch the Artefact goes
home.

Louis, Bea was on the news.
She found Maeve.

Hey!

We were worried about you.

What - what is all this?
I don't understand?

Louis...

..it's been two months.

Kaz has been here a couple of
months,

me and most of everyone after that.

For Meg, it's just been a few weeks
or so,

you're the last.

The Alternate is just a beach.

We think up food, shelter,

we imagine whatever we need.

It's not so bad.

Wait, the Artefact!

Louis, wait, wait!

Where is it? We have to touch it!
I know!

We know.

Only, none of us have been able to

figure out how to do that yet.

You all right?

She and him are all - yep.

You know I can hear you?

Are they speaking in your head?

We learnt how to do that too,
eventually.

I told them.

Eventually - after he told us.

Well, what have you all tried?

Giant ladders, grappling hooks.

Monika tried a jetpack but that

didn't work so we use it as a
barbecue.

It's impossible, nothing works.

It's crazy dangerous too.

That high up, we could get hurt
trying, so...

So what?

They've all been waiting for you to
arrive.

Thinking you're going to come up

with some genius idea that we've all
been missing.

So...

..any thoughts?

Doesn't seem fair, us all arriving

at different times.

That doesn't look fair to me.

What's up with Kaz and Meg?

They had a big fight,

now they're not talking.

Kaz hangs out with Jay's group
pretty much always.

And you didn't do anything?

Sorry.

We can't touch that thing.

Can't get out.

Everybody's given up.

You're our last hope.

No pressure.

You're the first from your group to
come through.

You're welcome to hang out with me -

and Dev.

Ever get the feeling they're just
messing with us?

How is anyone supposed to
touch that thing?

Beats me.

Really?

Mr Competitive.

This is impossible.

They wouldn't have made it
impossible.

Louis...

..all he cares about is them.

I know you know that.

What happened at the airlock?

He froze, that's all.

We may not fit together but we have
each other's backs.

First one to move loses.

OK, fine.

I asked for that!

Yeah.

Why do you do that?

Some people...

Some people wear glasses to see
better.

How's this any different?

And - your feet are wet!

Ew, argh!

You make it!

We could just give ourselves
superpowers and fly up there?

We can only create things and change
things - it won't work.

Your group are always sleeping.

What else is there to do?

Ooh!

We could, like, strap ourselves to

one of those weather balloons or
something that floats.

How would you get close and that
high?

I mean, something goes wrong and...

..woo - kaboom!

But try it if you want.

We can't just stay here forever.

As opposed to what?

Listen to my dad moan about money
and fight with my mum?

Hang out at shopping centres?

This isn't so bad here, is it?



And?

Are you focused on winning this
thing?

Cos I don't really see a lot of
effort from you. But you and Kaz...

You got something to say - say it.

I liked Emma but that didn't help
us win this.

I just want to make sure that the
plan is still to come between Kaz

and her group like we discussed.

They're the ones to beat.

The plan is still to win this thing,
nothing's changed.

It's taking a little longer than
we thought, is all.

Come on.

You're not listening to me!

I heard you pretty clearly!

It's lovely to see you by the way,
missed you loads.

He's using you, they're trying to
come between us!

He doesn't like you, he just wants
to win!

I don't see him trying very hard!

It's you and me, and Glen and Louis,
we have to stick together!

You weren't here, he was!

You know, someone finally likes me!

Can you let me have that, please?

I like you. I like you too!

Stop it, I'm trying to help you -
I care about you!

I'm not your sister, Meg!

Grace ran away - after a boy

and I never saw her again and you
are just like her!

What is this?

Meg...

..I think you should go.

I feel bad about not saying
goodbye.

It wasn't your fault.

Save the apologies for the real Bea.

What were you doing with Maeve?

Looking for you, probably.

You're distracted.

You've got to stop obsessing about
who they are...

..about me.

Focus on winning this.

I... I don't know how.

The answer's right there, Louis,

it's staring you in the face.

You want to see something?

Where are we going?

You'll see.

It's to scale, exact detail.

I added the seaweed.

The seaweed wasn't entirely
necessary but he sulked.

I think it ties it together.

Why do you make this?

The challenge had us beat, so we had
all this time.

Check this out.

The shape, it's human.

Too big for us but adult-sized.

What if they look like us?

You made this from memory?

Of course.

BEA ECHOING: The answer's right
there, Louis,

it's staring you in the face.

Did something happen?

Louis!

How could I be so stupid?

Who was the first?

What? The first?

The very first person to arrive, who
was it?

It was Jay.

Hey there.

Why aren't you thinking of any ideas
how to touch that thing?

What?

Did you get too much sun?

You want to win, you want to save
the world.

Why aren't you fighting for this?

Erm, it's impossible.

Everyone keeps telling me that since
I got here - that it's impossible.

Does anyone know what he's
talking about?

Not really.

Why don't you just calm down?

You almost had me, it's pretty
smart, I'll give you that.

Leave it alone, Louis.

Louis, do you want to tell us
what's going on?

Shall I tell them?

I said leave it alone!

Hey!

Meg!

Stop this! What's gotten into you?
That!

That's not the real challenge!

It never was, was it?

All that concentration for two
months,

it must have been so hard,
so exhausting.

Did you take it in turns, make it
impossible?

Keep us all distracted while you
four work on the real challenge?

He put that there himself!

But he messed up on the design.

You got the design wrong.

How did we miss that?

What's the real challenge?

What is it?!

Hello?!

Hello?!

Hello?!

Dev was the next to arrive.

The others will be here soon.

I mean, it could take us days,

maybe even weeks to search
through all these.

We need a distraction.

Keep their minds on something
else...

..something impossible.

The real Artefact's hidden
out there somewhere.

Among all the other pebbles.

While we were focused on that...

They were looking for the Artefact.

"Know me to find me."

You getting caught up in this
wasn't a part of it.

I like you a lot.

How could I say anything?

Kaz, come on!

This is my chance to be somebody!

We've been looking for two
months, it's not here.

Like we're going to listen to you.

We'll take our chances.

Are you OK?

Are we OK?

What could it mean?

"Know me to find me."

What's it testing us on?

Jay didn't know it well enough,

that's why they messed up.

It wants us to know it.

It wants us to obsess over it,
to understand it.

Keep going.

Like this?

It wasn't one of the pebbles,
it was any of them.

Kaz?

This one? I'm doing it!

You got it.

Turns out we were only gone
a few hours.

No, we can't lose!

Dev, leave it.

This isn't fair!

DEV: We haven't come this far for
this to be the end.

DEV: OK, no,
don't tell me to calm down!

Whe, whe... Where are we?

Argh!

It's OK, it was an accident.

GREENFRONT TECH: It'll be all right.

Kaz...

It's just us now.

Do you want to hear a crazy thought?

Whatever came out of those things
was human-like...

..adult height and would probably be
in charge.
