- How was that?
- 2:19, well done, miss!

All samples doing well.
No signs of fragmentation or tissue decay.

Also b*at my record by 14 seconds.

- You're a good teacher.
- Not even close to my father.

Well, that makes two of us.

Who's that?

I don't know.

Hiya, can I help?

How are your starfish doing?

- Sorry, do we know each other?
- I'm afraid not.

Alec Kurtz.

Your colleagues at Trinity told me
where I could find you.

It's brilliant!

Did you come all this way
to comment on the view or...?

Certainly not.

- I have something for you.
- What is it?

An offer you can't refuse.

Who's in charge of this?

I'm afraid I'm not allowed to say.

This number, is it monthly or...?

No, that would be weekly, actually.

- They're stars.
- Sorry?

They're not fish.

They're sea stars.

Of course they are.

The plane takes off in five hours.

Zack?

Rachel, what's going on?

Hey, it's all right, it's all right.

Where's Zack?

Rachel, where's Zack?

They belong to Zack.

- Zack's missing.
- Since when?

Someone broke into the lab,
destroyed the equipment,

and there's blood.

Where did you find those?

Wait. Stop!

Stop! Whoa, whoa, stop!

- What the f*ck do you think you're doing?
- I'm just cleaning.

- I said stop, Charlie.
- But the Captain always says...

It's ok, Charlie. Look at me. It's ok.

Yeah.

It's blood.

- What's going on?
- Man overboard.

We're turning around.

Hey, Arthur. Icegirl replied.

Just give me a minute, Yuto, ok?
Just a minute.

Hey, what's up? Well?

It's Zack, sir.

- We believe he fell overboard.
- He didn't fall.

He was thrown.

- The DNA sequencer's been shattered.
- What?

Rachel's fine.

And the Captain's turning around
to search for Zack,

- but it's a waste of time.
- He might still be alive.

There's no way he's still alive.

- We don't know that.
- But we know there's a k*ller on board.

We need to get back to port. Now.

And that's an order.

With all due respect, sir,
I'm not leaving anyone behind.

He's right, Alec.

We can't just sail away.

Very well.

But feeling good about ourselves
is not gonna make us feel any safer.

Thank you, mister Wan.

- Make sure you eat it all.
- Yeah.

So?

Who're you gonna blame this time, huh?

Sir.

- Yeah.
- It's the log from the security system.

Someone entered the lab at 2:12 am.

It's Kowalski.

Oh, sh*t.

Whoever k*lled Kowalski took his card.

And that couldn't be Marcus, could it?

His death is on you.

The DNA sequence is toasted.

Good luck trying to repair this.

- Is this where you were sitting?
- No. No.

No, we were waiting for the sequencer.

I had some coffee,
I tried to do some work,

but I couldn't focus, and so...

I went to my desk and I fell asleep.

- Can we get this analyzed?
- Sure.

What are you thinking?

Kowalski's k*ller
needed to destroy the sequencer

for obvious reasons, all right?

- He tried putting you to sleep.
- Yeah, but Zack didn't drink.

That coffee saved your life.

I told you, she's just getting started.

For f*ck's sake,
Maggie is not on this ship.

Someone who's working for her is!

I'm not gonna let this happen again!

That's it!

The work is done.

Wrap it up,
share all your data with Rachel.

- And that includes you.
- And why is that?

- I'm replacing the lot of you.
- What?

Look, there's a k*ller on board
and it could be any one of you!

What about you?

What about me?

Go on.

Go on, say it.

You're the only one
who's actually accused of m*rder here.

Well, if you think I'm guilty,

then you have no place on my f*cking team.

Good, because I'm done with your sh*t.

- What are you still doing here?
- You can't be f*cking serious.

This is my research as well.
You can't just discard me.

Try me.

Who you gonna call?

Arthur.

Yuto will grant you access
to all the data.

You're the only one I can trust now.

f*ck.

f*ck!

f*ck, I f*cking knew it,
I shouldn't have come!

You're damn right.

None of you should.

Look what you did to Marcus.

You geniuses tried to pin it on us,

and now...

And now he's dead.

I... I had nothing to do with that.

We know it's one of you.

We should lock you up.

All of you.

I'm all for that.

Hey!

Hey, what's going on?

This isn't a f*cking drill!

- We have a man overboard.
- You'll see!

Didn't you hear me? To your posts!

Whose side are you on, officer?

There are no sides on this ship.

But we do have a chain of command.

To your posts!

Now.

Come on, Charlie.

What does this mean?

It's her, it's Maggie.

She's toying with us,
that's what it means.

Where is she sending this from?

Impossible to trace.
She could be anywhere.

Not on board.

Maybe someone
is communicating with her.

Have you checked
if she's got a relationship

with anybody on board the ship?

Already have.
I ran everything I have on Maggie

through the data of everyone on the ship.

- And?
- Only got one hit on a disabled account.

It's you.

It was posted by a woman
named Sarah Jackson.

Sound familiar?

Yeah, I know who Sarah Jackson is,

but what I don't understand
is her relationship to Maggie.

Maggie is her daughter.

Her real name's Olivia Jackson.

How did I not see this?

You wanna say hello?

- Yeah.
- Alright.

"Dear Maggie,

or should I call you Olivia?

"You remind me so much of your mother."

So the water was loaded with Midazolam,
a heavy anesthetic.

They could've taken her liver out
and she wouldn't have flinched.

- Thanks.
- Here you go.

Done. It's on the shared drive.

Ok.

No, you need to export the SAS files
into SQL before compressing.

- You know Python, right?
- Yeah, er, sure.

Yeah.

You'll be alright.

She's just jealous.

Not that I asked
for any special treatment.

What?

I guess it's your father's way
of showing affection.

Well, he's 28 years late.

And tricking me
into working for him? Yeah.

- My therapist is gonna love that.
- Give him a break.

Jail, it uh...

It changes people.

Not him.

He doesn't want to be loved,
he just wants to be admired.

- You are so much like him.
- I'm nothing like him.

Oh, no, you are. You're smart.

You're driven.
You're stubborn like a mule.

And yet he gets this big ship
and I get the little fishing boat.

That was a nice boat, actually.

You should come.

When this is all over.

That sounds like a plan.

I love starfish.

Here you are.

Arthur needs you, Alec.

I'm telling you,
we should f*cking do something.

- Hi, mister Wan.
- Good.

Hey, Charlie. You just gonna sit and watch

while that bunch of psychos
f*ck us up for good?

I mind my own business.

"I mind my own business
and do what my brother tells me."

And you do what Erika says.

Come on, wake the f*ck up, man!

How old are you?

When are you gonna start
making your own f*cking decisions?

Hey, leave him alone.

f*ck you too, Wan.

Goodbye, mister Wan.

What...
What part of "no unsupervised comms"

did you not understand?

- I only did what he asked.
- I don't like to be supervised.

- You're a bloody fugitive!
- Precisely.

And this proves that I'm innocent!

How the hell
does she even know about Kowalski?

I don't know.

Right, no more talking to her,
is that clear?

- Yeah.
- Is that clear?

Yes.

But get your people to find her.

I want justice.

We'll do our best.

Hello?

Who's there?

No, hey! Come on, open up!

No, no, no. Come on, open up!

Help! Open up!

Let me out!

Let me out of here!

Someone let me out of here!

Help!

Help! Somebody!

No, no, no. No, no.

Charlie! Charlie!

Man overboard! Port side 45!

- Dead slow astern. Port 15.
- Dead slow astern. Port 15.

Help! Somebody!

Help! Come on!

- Did you hear that?
- Yeah.

Someone's screaming! Come on.

See it?

- Where?
- It's over there somewhere.

f*ck!

f*ck, f*ck, f*ck...

f*ck.

It's him.

Rescue boat! Go!

Go, go, go, quickly!

Move it, move it!

Go, go, go, quickly!

- They found him.
- Go inside the boat.

Quickly!

Go inside the boat!

- Go, go, go!
- Come on.

- Ready?
- Yes.

sh*t, it's stuck.

- Stay back!
- Oh, for Christ's sake!

- We just want to help, come on!
- Erika, it's stuck.

We're switching on manual.

- Charlie! Manual!
- Yeah, Captain.

Can't they just like drop it or something?

I'm sorry, I... I can't watch this.

Department of Molecular Biology,
Princeton University,

- how may I help you?
- Hello.

I'd like to speak
to Professor Zacharie Dubois.

I'm sorry, but he's not part
of this Department anymore.

Oh, of course, he left
at the beginning of March, right?

Yes. Who am I speaking to?

Oh, I'm just... I'm a colleague.

Did he leave an address
where I could contact him?

He's not been replying
to any of my mails.

No, sorry.

I do need to speak to him quite urgently,
is there someone who might know?

I'm sorry but I can't provide you
with that kind of information.

Have a good day.

Where the f*ck are you, Zacharie Dubois?

He's dead.

Hey, Alec!

Something's wrong at the lab.

- The door's not working.
- It must be your card.

- I'll get you a new one.
- No, it's not my card.

There's no power.

Captain,
we got a power failure in the lab.

Can someone go check it?

Where's Rachel?

f*ck.

Alright.

I don't know what happened to it.

Come on.

f*ck.

Rachel?

Alright.

Ok.

Got it.

Rachel?

Rachel!

Rachel, Rachel!

Rachel!

Alec!

Oh, sh*t.

Call Erika! And get some blankets.

- What happened?
- How long has she been in there?

- Don't know.
- Alec! How long has she been in there?

- Don't know, but she's f*cking freezing.
- She's going to be alright…

- Get your coat off, put it round her.
- Alright.

Come on, come on,
alright, alright, alright.

Alright. It's alright, it's alright.

It's alright, it's alright.

It's not f*cking working, Alec!

- It's working.
- It's not working!

Come on, Rachel! Come on.

f*ck this, f*ck this.

Rachel! Come on. Listen to me, ok?

You listen to me, you listen to me,
you stand for me, ok?

You f*cking stand for me. You get up...

You f*cking stand, do you hear me?
You stand! Come on!

Stand for me! Go!

Come on, stand, stand for me, please!

Rachel, come on! Please.

Please, baby.

Please, come, come on! Stand!

Stand for me, please,
stand for me, please.

Please!

Come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

Come on, Rachel.

Come on, come on, come on!

Come on! Come on.

Come on...

Come on.

Rachel.

Come on!

Rachel! It's cold, I know.
You need to rest.

Hey. Hey!

Do you know who I am?

It's alright. It's alright.

She's stable.

She's going to be all right.

Thank you.

That was close.

- Doesn't this remind you of something?
- Shut it!

Sorry?

It's nothing.

Remember when I locked you out in the ice?

And you almost froze to death?

That was fun.

She is beautiful, Arthur.

You shouldn't have brought her here.

I want to be the only woman in your life.

I want a g*n.

- Excuse me?
- Give me a g*n.

- I can't give you a g*n.
- There's a k*ller loose on this ship

and you're doing absolutely nothing!

We lost a day sailing back
for a bloody corpse because you insisted.

And yes, we have a k*ller on board.

But you did handpick
each and every one of your collaborators.

If you don't protect me, Alec,
I'll do it myself.

I don't need you
to remind me of my duty.

I'm your bloody duty!

Do you realize
how many lives have been lost

trying to make this happen?

But there's one life, just one,
that you can't afford to lose.

And that's mine.

So give me a g*n.

f*cking hell.

I've been thinking
about those Icegirl messages.

What about them?

Well, she mentioned Kowalski.
Why... Why him?

What does she know?

Face recognition.

Brilliant.

Now, why was he k*lled first?

Well, he was my right-hand man.

Maybe there's something else.

Something we're missing.

Wait, what's this?

Looks like scribblings
from one of his notebooks.

Yeah, but where is it? The notebook.

Well, maybe the k*ller took it with him.

I'm no Columbo
but, when the k*ller got Zack,

he could have easily gone for Rachel
right there.

Why leave her for later?

It might all be part
of the Polaris reenactment.

Or maybe she didn't have to die.

Not until you asked her
to wrap up the research

and granted her access to all the files.

- Bloody hell.
- That must be it.

The head, the freezer...

They're all distractions.

The k*ller's after your work.

We have a f*cking snitch.

- Hey.
- Hey, what are you up to?

Arthur told me
to finish up Rachel's work, so...

I see. So now he trusts you.

Well, I guess he's running out of options.

And we go way back.

Ok.

Aren't you afraid
of being here all by yourself?

Are you?

Hell yeah! But I'm armed.

I want to take a look at this.

- What for?
- It must have an internal memory.

Maybe Yuto could recover the data.
The DNA tests.

It looks ok.

It should all be here.

Hey!

Why are we going so slow?

It's a minor problem. We're on it.

It's the CO2 fire extinguishing system.

The red bottles in the engine room
are full of CO2.

If there's a fire in the engine,

the engine room is sealed
and flooded with CO2,

displacing the oxygen
and k*lling the fire.

There's a failure on one of the valves.
We're on it.

We can't go full ahead until it's fixed.

Yes, Oscar.

Yes, Captain,
everything is back to normal.

- Everything is under control.
- Good job. Thank you.

Full ahead, then.

Full ahead, Captain.

Solved.

Onwards, my princess.

Hey!

- Is something wrong?
- No.

Charlie. Is it the dead man?

No, I didn't like him.

I think he's better off dead.

Don't ever say that again.

Not to me, not to anyone.

- But why are you hitting me?
- It hurts me more.

- Wil is right...
- Wil?

- What does Wil have to do with it?
- Yeah!

He says I don't need you!
I'm not a kid anymore!

- Yeah! He says you don't need me?
- Yeah!

That's just f*cking great, Charlie!
You know what I say?

f*ck Wil. Stay away from him.

- I told you to mind your own business.
- I'm a grown-up.

- Oh, yes, you're very grown-up.
- Yes.

Now it's whatever Wil says.
Well, you know what I say?

- What?
- Let him look after you!

sh*t.

Charlie.

So both Lou Kowalski and Zacharie Dubois

left their jobs
just days before Arthur escaped

and neither of them
said where they were going.

Yeah, but where?

I don't know.

He's got to have
other collaborators and...

Surely he's got
some women working for him.

We've just got to keep looking.
Someone will make a mistake.

He can't hide forever.

Neither can you.

What?

He knows who I am.

What? No, how...
How would he even know that?

He replied to the Icegirl thread.

He said I remind him of my mother.

Are you serious?

For f*ck's sake, Liv,
what are we gonna do now?

Ma... Maybe we just lay low for a bit

and wait
until he leaves us alone and then...

He'll know who you are too, just...

Just come here
and make sure you're not followed.

We outsmarted him once.
We can do it again.

I won't stop searching until I find him.

I'll make him pay.

Go away.

Forgive me, Charlie.

No, go away.

Charlie, I didn't mean to hit you,
I'm really sorry.

- Charlie, forgive me, please.
- No.

Come on, Charlie forgi...

Go away.

As you wish.

SPAIN WORLD CHAMPIONS!

It's the 115th minute.

- Puyol passes to Navas.
- Stop it.

Navas goes on a 30-meter slaloming run
and crosses into their half.

- I told you to stop!
- He passes the ball to Andrés Iniesta.

Andrés Iniesta, the genius,
back heels it to Cesc Fábregas,

Fábregas plays it back to Navas,
Navas sees El Niño Torres open...

On the wing, he passes him the ball,

- El Niño Torres crosses into the box...
- No...

He's rejected by the Dutch defense,

but the ball goes to Cesc Fábregas...

Fábregas sees Iniesta alone,

who sh**t and...

- Goal!
- Goal!

- Goal!
- Goal!

Yes!

Good job!

Hey!

- Yuto, tell me it's working.
- Yeah, it's all here.

But there's tons of files.

But can you find the last ones?

The last one is from last night, 2:12 am.

Yeah.

Charlie.

We got him.

Good job.

What would you consider
to be one of your strengths?

I'm very good fixing engines.

And with animals.

I love animals.

Do you have a pet?

- Yeah, I have a dog.
- Oh, yeah, I love dogs.

I've never had one.

I will.

I will call him...

Tyson.

Tyson.
