01x06 - Dimitri Donskoii

[bunniefuu]

[Maddie] "As I descended

through the Pacific,

I found myself staring into the eyes

of a gleaming barracuda.

He smiled to reveal

rows of knife-sharp teeth.

He soon tired of me.

As I watched him disappear

into the deep, I saw it.”

[all] "There it was!

The 'Canary',

Amelia Earhart's long-lost plane."

[all laugh]

-Can you read it again?

-No! Three times is enough!

Amelia Earhart's plane was

an unsolved mystery until Leo came along.

[Stevie giggles]

-What?

-As if he'd go by 'Leo'.

[laughter]

Guys, he's talking about real adventures.

We should be doing stuff like that.

-Mmm.

-No.

Oh, come on!

The Russian wreck's out there

right on our doorstep.

I am not having this conversation again.

Can you imagine what we could discover?

Sharks, Lauren. Lots and lots of sharks.

We've workshopped it from every angle.

Unless we want to become shark biscuits,

there's just no safe way of doing it.

But we'd be the first divers

on the Russian wreck.

It would be so amazing to--

-No.

-Absolutely not.

-There's no chance.

-We're not doing it.

No. No. Uh-uh.

OK, OK, calm down. We won't do the dive.

Guys, can we please promise

to never do that dive.

Agreed. Promise?

-Promise.

-Promise.

Fine.

OK, read it again.

-OK.

-[groans]

[laughter]

"There I was on my boat,

the 'Valentina'"

Remind me, why is he hanging

from the ceiling?

Oh, I am so sorry about the net.

We've had a few intense situations lately,

but, yeah, we've had to take precautions,

but I'm sure that a gentleman

from your background--

Maddie! Don't apologise to the suspect!

[scoffs] He is not a suspect.

Well, I mean, you kind of are,

but but we'll sort that out.

Maddie, whatever is happening inside

your head needs to come to the outside.

-Mm-hm.

-OK, um, let me explain.

[Stevie whispers] What is she doing?

[Anna] I have no idea.

[grunts]

This is the great Leonid Komarov.

[speaks Russian]

Yeah, look, this one is my favourite,

but, I mean,

I'm a fan of all of your works.

But The Canary just really

blew it out of the water for me.

Look, I have no idea

what's happening right now,

and I'm not responsible

for you being in that net.

Just putting it out there.

Oh, and, um, quick question,

with the wreck of 'Erebus',

was the Arctic water

really affecting your air intake or--

Um, look, why were you

texting Lauren, hmm?

Who is 16, by the way.

Anna, I do not think

that Mr. Komarov meant--

[clears throat] Yes.

-I am indeed Leonid Komarov.

-See!

I was invited here

as a professional consult.

I sent Lauren text message

to confirm meeting

as I had not heard from her in some time.

I was much relieved to get reply.

Now, the waters in the Arctic

reach zero degrees Celsius and lower,

but I was insulated by a hot water system,

so my air intake--

[both] Was normal.

Da.

Now, ladies,

if there is no more questions--

Wait, wait, am I supposed to know

who he is? No offence.

No offence taken.

Read these. All of them.

Leonid Komarov, "World-renowned diver,

author and explorer".

Now, Mr. Komarov--

It's Leo, please.

[laughs triumphantly] I knew it.

Lauren, I presume.

No, I'm I'm not Lauren.

Then who is?

Oh, OK, look, look, look, we ask

the questions here, alright, buddy?

So you said that you were a

[imitates Russian accent]

professional consult.

Why would Lauren need one of those?

I will need to demonstrate.

Hey, hey!

OK, it is just letter.

One I think you'll find

well worth reading.

-Come.

-Come on.

It's from Lauren.

What? She did the dive.

The Russian shipwreck dive.

Wait, I thought you said that dive

is too dangerous.

-It is.

-You are lying!

I am many things,

but never a liar.

Well, then, she lied,

because she would never do that dive.

Not without any of us.

Explorers from every corner of the earth

have been entranced by your Russian wreck.

Yet too many of them have succumbed

to its dangerous currents

and aggressive sharks.

Its secrets lie

on the bottom of the ocean.

[snaps fingers]

Until your friend sent me that letter.

Now she alone knows

what secrets that ship may hold.

Secrets?

She found something.

What did she find?

That is exactly

what I'm here to find out.

Now, Lauren will not be joining us?

Lauren went missing.

Ten days ago.

Hmm. As I thought.

[suspenseful music]

Tell me everything.

[theme music]

[jaunty music]

[metal rattles]

Hmm.

East India Company.

Minted 1840.

Copper and bronze mineral mix.

Hmm. Certainly not currency.

Likely a token of some sort.

Wait for it. This will be good.

Hmm.

I have

no idea of the origin of this coin.

[Stevie] What?

But Lauren specifically made a note

to ask you about it.

She did indeed, but do not despair.

Before knowledge

there must always be ignorance.

I will return to you with a plan,

but first I must have hot sbiten

and stare into the night

until I see clarity

in the darkness.

Spokoynoy nochi.

OK, well, that guy clearly has spent

way too much time underwater.

He is brilliant!

He has bubbles in his brain.

Why wouldn't Lauren just tell us that she

wanted to do the Russian wreck dive?

Because she knew you would stop her.

[sighs]

[sighs heavily]

-Salt water heals everything.

-Mmm.

Wish I could say the same

about chlorine.

Hey, hey, hey.

Hey, this pool is for guests only.

You're not allowed to be here.

[Stevie sighs]

How do you know that we aren't guests?

-What's your room number?

Hotel has 200 rooms.

Besides, Stevie Harrison,

I know who you are.

-Stevie, let's go.

-Come on!

Actually, our friends are staying here,

Izzie and John Martin.

They just moved in yesterday.

So we're their guests.

I don't think so. Security!

Come on! Your shoes!

[laughter]

[up-beat music]

[mysterious music]

What can I get you?

Eh coffee.

Darker than the shadows

of the Mariana trench.

Black.

Cool.

[snaps fingers] And a cookie.

Make that five cookies.

[woman] Did you hear the news

about McKinley Fraser?

-What is this excitement?

-Some sailor's going for a world record.

-Mmm.

-But she's gone missing.

Missing?

Mm-hm.

[Leonid] Hmm.

-Alright, let's get this out of the way.

-Yeah, the quicker the better.

OK, so you stole a boat.

The boat was damaged.

No-one got hurt.

Six months detention and a whopping fine.

Pretty much sums it up.

You've been working here at the diner

and the marina with Henry?

How many hours you do this week?

Nearly 60.

Good man. Right, let's see.

You still owe court fees,

supervision fees, court restitution.

-That's 600 bucks.

-Hey, what?

That's like a whole week's wage.

I thought I was only paying for

the damage to the boat.

I just read the forms, Hayden.

Are you kidding me?

Chief, I've been working two jobs, OK?

When I'm not at the marina or here,

I'm helping at the Volkovs.

I've messed things up with Stevie

to try and pay this stupid fine off

and now you're telling me I owe more?

It's impossible!

I can't physically work any harder!

You stole a boat and trashed it.

What'd you think was going to happen?

It was an accident.

Sure it was.

Hmm.

[Izzie] Mr. Komarov.

Ah, the blonde woman

who felt bad I was caught in a net.

Mr. Komarov,

I read one of your books last night

and, um, things get pretty dangerous

on your adventures.

Da.

You see, I never got to meet Lauren,

but I'm getting a sense

of what she was like,

and I'm just wondering if maybe

Things got pretty dangerous.

Hmm.

Perhaps.

Do you think that Lauren was--

I think she was brave.

Braver than most.

We are all adventurers

as soon as we find something

that we care about more than fear.

[eerie music]

So, are you and Hayden

over for good this time?

Yep.

Are you OK?

Can we stay focused, please?

This is where we're going.

Good morning, comrades.

We brought supplies.

Some cookies.

-And we've got a plan.

-Yes, Rasputin, take a seat.

Alright, the Russian wreck

lies a short boat ride from the coast.

I say we do a survey of local dive spots

away from known shark migration zones.

And, Leonid uh, Leo,

in your second book,

The Mistaken Identity of the Isabella,

you worked with a man named Pavel Tolstoy.

He assisted you

in digitally scanning artefacts.

Da.

[Maddie] Do you think that you could ask

for his help again?

I just think the software that he used

could tell us more about our coin.

Perhaps.

Ladies

you stand on the edge of a precipice.

I have a dilemma for you,

one that we cannot escape

no matter how hard we try.

In order to learn what Lauren knew,

we must do what Lauren did.

[Stevie] What?

He means we need to do

the Russian wreck dive.

[snaps fingers]

[radio static crackles]

It's my radio.

[woman over radio] Mayday, mayday, mayday!

Hello? Is anyone there?

Latitude's 21 degrees, 36 minutes out.

-That's a distress call.

-Longitude 155 degrees.

That's Lauren!

[Maddie] Do you think?

There's no time to waste.

To the 'Valentina'!

[suspenseful music]

[theme music]

[engine stops]

I'll take the south.

Stevie, you look north.

-Izzie, look west.

-And I'll go east. Got it.

If you see something,

don't take your eyes off it, OK?

-OK.

-Oh, uh, your other west.

[eerie music]

[radio static crackles]

This is 'Valentina'.

Any vessels in distress?

[radio static crackles]

'Valentina'. Distress call received.

Any vessels requiring assistance?

[suspenseful music]

Chert voz'mi!

[flare fizzes]

Flare!

Keep your eyes on it.

That's about

[both] Two nautical miles east.

Leonid, hard to port!

Yes, ma'am.

[flare fizzes]

[boat engine roars]

[theme music]

Lauren! Lauren, over here!

[water splashes]

Lauren!

It's her!

Lauren! Lauren!

McKinley Fraser.

Boy, am I glad to see you.

'Valentina' to Cape Mercy Harbour.

Call for EMT services.

We have McKinley Fraser on board.

She's well but requires medical.

[man over radio] 10-4, 'Valentina'.

We'll have an ambulance standing by.

[Maddie] Wait till Sea Dog hears

we rescued a famous sailor.

[Izzie] The whole town has been

talking about your world record attempt.

It's an honour to meet you, McKinley.

The world has been following your story

with a lot of interest.

Likewise, Mr. Komarov.

Your reputation certainly precedes you.

Thank you all so much.

We're glad to be of service.

What happened?

I missed the checkpoint

when the cyclone knocked me off course.

I had enough food and water

to keep me going, but--

What happened to your boat?

Destroyed. The reef took out the hull.

I barely made out my distress call

before she went down.

It'll be weeks before I can make

another attempt.

Another attempt?

Of course!

But you nearly went down with the ship.

A ship is safest in the harbour

but that's not what ships are for.

[gentle music]

Hey, Leo!

I've always wanted to know

why you named your boat the 'Valentina'.

Was it some sassy Russian journalist

who stole your heart

but it didn't work out

because you're married to the sea?

Valentina Tereshkova.

The first woman in space.

Huh.

Izvinite.

[sighs]

I'm sorry.

For what?

We saved a famous sailor today.

I'm sorry that it was not Lauren.

We will find our answers.

We must keep looking.

[footsteps approach]

Stevie! Stay here.

They found something.

[hushed murmuring]

[sombre music]

Is that?

Lauren's jacket.

[Stevie] Oh, my gosh.

It's all over.

She's gone.

[plaintive music]
