1
00:00:23,422 --> 00:00:28,172
_

2
00:00:30,820 --> 00:00:32,485
_

3
00:00:33,836 --> 00:00:36,281
_

4
00:00:37,434 --> 00:00:38,733
This asteroid was only the size

5
00:00:38,735 --> 00:00:40,235
of a small house, but generated

6
00:00:40,237 --> 00:00:42,752
a force 30 times greater
than the bomb at Hiroshima.

7
00:00:42,777 --> 00:00:44,009
How did we miss it, Neil?

8
00:00:44,057 --> 00:00:45,423
Carol, there are thousands

9
00:00:45,425 --> 00:00:47,725
of dangerous
Near Earth Objects out there.

10
00:00:47,727 --> 00:00:49,126
The problem with meteors

11
00:00:49,128 --> 00:00:50,928
like the one that exploded over Russia?

12
00:00:50,930 --> 00:00:53,097
We just don't even know they're there

13
00:00:53,099 --> 00:00:54,765
until it's too late.

14
00:00:56,991 --> 00:00:58,590
_

15
00:01:09,341 --> 00:01:11,418
_

16
00:01:11,650 --> 00:01:13,450
All right.

17
00:01:13,452 --> 00:01:16,220
Ladies and gentlemen,
MIT alumnus and tech pioneer

18
00:01:16,222 --> 00:01:18,088
Darius Tanz!

19
00:01:29,088 --> 00:01:31,010
Hey! Watch it!

20
00:01:31,102 --> 00:01:32,666
How many ways are there to die?

21
00:01:32,806 --> 00:01:35,338
Sure, there's, you know,
grandma-kicks-the-bucket,

22
00:01:35,340 --> 00:01:38,875
small-bore stuff, but I'm
talking about the big kahuna.

23
00:01:38,877 --> 00:01:43,830
Pandemics, nuclear wars,
global warming, fast food.

24
00:01:45,580 --> 00:01:47,033
There are infinite ways to die, of course.

25
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,547
You and me... we're all gonna go,

26
00:01:48,712 --> 00:01:51,875
somehow, some way, but the human race...

27
00:01:52,133 --> 00:01:54,266
The human race doesn't have to.

28
00:02:06,236 --> 00:02:08,236
I know we all appear to be

29
00:02:08,238 --> 00:02:09,771
safe and cozy here on our

30
00:02:09,773 --> 00:02:11,739
post-Paleolithic pedestal,

31
00:02:11,741 --> 00:02:13,975
but I assure you, things can change.

32
00:02:13,977 --> 00:02:15,743
Rapidly.

33
00:02:15,745 --> 00:02:17,212
Dude.

34
00:02:17,214 --> 00:02:19,447
Sorry. I was in the lab all night.

35
00:02:19,449 --> 00:02:21,817
There have been at least five mass

36
00:02:21,819 --> 00:02:23,919
extinction events in the last few

37
00:02:23,921 --> 00:02:25,253
hundred million years, people.

38
00:02:25,255 --> 00:02:26,821
Five.

39
00:02:26,823 --> 00:02:28,189
If we don't want to end up like

40
00:02:28,191 --> 00:02:30,358
the dinosaurs, we need an exit strategy.

41
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,929
That is why colonizing Mars
is not just a pipe dream.

42
00:02:34,931 --> 00:02:36,531
It's a necessity.

43
00:02:36,533 --> 00:02:37,998
Now I can see

44
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,369
all these skeptical MIT faces
looking back at me, thinking,

45
00:02:41,371 --> 00:02:43,603
"Will you give me a job
after graduation?"

46
00:02:43,605 --> 00:02:46,406
Maybe.

47
00:02:46,408 --> 00:02:49,877
Maybe? Well, except for the guy
who got here late,

48
00:02:49,879 --> 00:02:51,111
the one without the shoes.

49
00:02:53,082 --> 00:02:56,317
But seriously, we've put all our eggs

50
00:02:56,319 --> 00:02:57,751
into one cosmic basket.

51
00:02:57,753 --> 00:03:01,355
If the universe decides
to plant its big old ass

52
00:03:01,357 --> 00:03:03,824
into that basket...

53
00:03:05,227 --> 00:03:06,893
...we're toast.

54
00:03:06,895 --> 00:03:09,295
- Crazy.
- Thanks.

55
00:03:09,297 --> 00:03:11,064
We can't go up to him with our résumés

56
00:03:11,066 --> 00:03:12,499
now, Shoeless.

57
00:03:12,501 --> 00:03:14,468
Many have tried to approach the king.

58
00:03:14,470 --> 00:03:16,302
Few make it past the castle gates.

59
00:03:16,304 --> 00:03:17,703
He always stays at the Royale.

60
00:03:17,705 --> 00:03:19,005
We should go over there

61
00:03:19,007 --> 00:03:20,373
and pitch him ideas.

62
00:03:20,375 --> 00:03:22,075
Way to get noticed.

63
00:03:29,617 --> 00:03:31,684
Zoe, breakfast is ready!

64
00:03:32,820 --> 00:03:34,387
I'll be home around

65
00:03:34,389 --> 00:03:35,888
6:00ish. We can have an early dinner.

66
00:03:35,890 --> 00:03:37,356
Mom, you forgot.

67
00:03:37,358 --> 00:03:40,192
Graduation rehearsal.
How is the speech going?

68
00:03:40,194 --> 00:03:42,628
- Want me to take a look at it?
- No, I got it under control.

69
00:03:42,630 --> 00:03:45,964
- You know, I kind of do this for a living.
- Mom, don't micromanage.

70
00:03:45,966 --> 00:03:48,533
And please don't give me that
"I'm so proud of you" look.

71
00:03:48,535 --> 00:03:50,635
This is the "I'm gonna miss you" look.

72
00:03:50,637 --> 00:03:52,570
Duke is only 262 miles away.

73
00:03:52,572 --> 00:03:54,539
That's what I keep telling myself.

74
00:03:54,541 --> 00:03:57,809
Hey, um... Dad was wondering

75
00:03:57,811 --> 00:03:59,878
if you're gonna use that extra ticket

76
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:01,046
for graduation?

77
00:04:01,048 --> 00:04:02,247
That's Kira.

78
00:04:02,249 --> 00:04:04,482
I got to fly. Just call him. Please?

79
00:04:04,484 --> 00:04:06,669
Okay.

80
00:04:06,872 --> 00:04:09,013
_

81
00:04:09,130 --> 00:04:10,855
Are you bringing a date

82
00:04:10,857 --> 00:04:12,323
to our daughter's graduation?

83
00:04:12,325 --> 00:04:14,559
No, I wasn't planning on using it, Mike.

84
00:04:14,561 --> 00:04:17,228
That's not the point.
These tickets are for family.

85
00:04:17,230 --> 00:04:19,964
Because I don't think either of
us should bring a date, Mike.

86
00:04:19,966 --> 00:04:22,099
The day is about Zoe, not about us.

87
00:04:22,101 --> 00:04:23,334
I can't talk about this right now.

88
00:04:23,336 --> 00:04:24,635
I'm walking into a meeting.

89
00:04:24,637 --> 00:04:26,370
Grace, why don't you start?

90
00:04:26,372 --> 00:04:28,472
We had a non-combat
related death in Germany...

91
00:04:28,474 --> 00:04:29,974
a warrant officer.

92
00:04:29,976 --> 00:04:31,575
Worked Intelligence at Fort Gordon.

93
00:04:31,577 --> 00:04:33,444
Okay, draft a press release
once the family's informed.

94
00:04:33,446 --> 00:04:34,297
Will do.

95
00:04:34,322 --> 00:04:37,025
Jordy, I need to brief
SecDef on Russian military moves.

96
00:04:37,050 --> 00:04:38,849
As of 0400, the Russians
began deploying at least

97
00:04:38,851 --> 00:04:40,183
three divisions, about 50,000 troops,

98
00:04:40,185 --> 00:04:41,752
to the Ukrainian border.

99
00:04:41,754 --> 00:04:43,420
They claim we've been
making some unusual moves

100
00:04:43,422 --> 00:04:45,288
- with some of our nukes.
- Okay. Grace,

101
00:04:45,290 --> 00:04:46,924
have your team release a statement

102
00:04:46,926 --> 00:04:48,291
to the media.

103
00:04:48,293 --> 00:04:49,660
Stress that this is just
routine maintenance

104
00:04:49,662 --> 00:04:51,428
of the nuclear arsenal,
and our Russian friends

105
00:04:51,430 --> 00:04:53,530
are bent out of shape over nothing, but

106
00:04:53,532 --> 00:04:55,265
say it nice, like you do.

107
00:04:55,267 --> 00:04:56,933
- Certainly, sir.
- Okay.

108
00:04:56,935 --> 00:04:59,735
The world is safe for today.

109
00:04:59,737 --> 00:05:01,037
Grace?

110
00:05:01,039 --> 00:05:02,605
A word in my office?

111
00:05:08,780 --> 00:05:11,046
So, I have some news.

112
00:05:11,048 --> 00:05:13,716
Your transfer request came through.

113
00:05:13,718 --> 00:05:15,518
Where'd you hear that?

114
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,521
Well, I'm fairly high up at the
Pentagon, in case you forgot.

115
00:05:20,091 --> 00:05:23,125
They need someone to run Public
Affairs over at Fort Myer.

116
00:05:23,127 --> 00:05:26,529
This is perfect.

117
00:05:26,531 --> 00:05:28,464
I'll be just up the road.

118
00:05:28,466 --> 00:05:32,034
And you... won't be my boss anymore.

119
00:05:32,036 --> 00:05:34,603
- We can finally be out in the open.
- Mm.

120
00:05:34,605 --> 00:05:36,071
No more sneaking around.

121
00:05:36,073 --> 00:05:37,306
Yeah.

122
00:05:37,308 --> 00:05:39,541
You can meet Zoe, I can meet Dylan.

123
00:05:39,543 --> 00:05:42,211
We can be a normal couple.

124
00:05:42,213 --> 00:05:45,279
Although, you know,
sneaking around was kind of fun.

125
00:05:48,752 --> 00:05:50,251
Mm.

126
00:05:50,253 --> 00:05:51,987
I'll miss having you here.

127
00:05:51,989 --> 00:05:54,589
Mm. You'll have me everywhere else.

128
00:05:54,591 --> 00:05:55,924
Yeah.

129
00:05:57,494 --> 00:05:59,360
Come in.

130
00:05:59,362 --> 00:06:02,063
Sir, the Joint Chief's on the line.

131
00:06:02,065 --> 00:06:03,364
I'm told it's urgent.

132
00:06:03,366 --> 00:06:04,732
Send it in.

133
00:06:14,444 --> 00:06:16,844
Spicy chicken burritos, extra salsa,

134
00:06:16,846 --> 00:06:18,278
- extra avocado?
- Yeah, that's me.

135
00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:20,113
Dude, the three-body problem
is unsolvable.

136
00:06:20,115 --> 00:06:21,649
No one's ever done it.
No one's done it yet.

137
00:06:21,651 --> 00:06:23,183
Oh, and I suppose
you're gonna be the one?

138
00:06:23,185 --> 00:06:24,985
So far, your algorithm
has turned up jack.

139
00:06:24,987 --> 00:06:26,353
Josh, you wouldn't know
a recursive algorithm

140
00:06:26,355 --> 00:06:27,721
if it bit you on your asymptote.

141
00:06:27,723 --> 00:06:30,257
Uh, actually, if we go back

142
00:06:30,259 --> 00:06:31,525
to second-year astrophysics...

143
00:06:31,527 --> 00:06:33,126
Who taught the class?
Pretty sure it was me.

144
00:06:33,128 --> 00:06:34,461
Let's go back to first year.

145
00:06:34,463 --> 00:06:36,329
Um, who got the highest mark

146
00:06:36,331 --> 00:06:37,764
- in advanced physics?
- Excuse me. I'm gonna see

147
00:06:37,766 --> 00:06:39,899
if I can solve the, uh...
the two-body problem.

148
00:06:39,901 --> 00:06:41,501
Two-body problem
is high school math, dude.

149
00:06:41,503 --> 00:06:43,070
I need to get...

150
00:06:51,145 --> 00:06:53,713
Hi.

151
00:06:54,816 --> 00:06:56,716
I see you remembered your shoes.

152
00:06:56,718 --> 00:06:58,084
Yeah, yeah.

153
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:00,954
I'm Liam.

154
00:07:00,956 --> 00:07:02,789
Jillian.

155
00:07:03,858 --> 00:07:05,558
So you're not MIT.

156
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:06,858
Oh, is it that obvious,

157
00:07:06,860 --> 00:07:09,195
or should I wear a dunce cap
so people know?

158
00:07:09,197 --> 00:07:11,630
I just mean that, you know,
I haven't seen you around.

159
00:07:11,632 --> 00:07:14,032
And that event was
students and faculty only.

160
00:07:14,034 --> 00:07:16,034
Darius Tanz is the greatest mind
of our time.

161
00:07:16,036 --> 00:07:17,470
So I snuck in.

162
00:07:17,472 --> 00:07:18,870
Sue me.

163
00:07:20,441 --> 00:07:23,642
And what do you do when not
committing felonious trespass?

164
00:07:25,245 --> 00:07:26,578
Guess.

165
00:07:26,580 --> 00:07:28,379
Okay.

166
00:07:28,381 --> 00:07:31,683
Let's see. Um...

167
00:07:31,685 --> 00:07:34,786
I'll say you're a writer.

168
00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:35,988
Sci-fi, perhaps.

169
00:07:35,990 --> 00:07:37,388
Whoa. How did you know...?

170
00:07:37,390 --> 00:07:39,091
You're interested in
the future of mankind,

171
00:07:39,093 --> 00:07:40,492
but you're not an MIT student.

172
00:07:40,494 --> 00:07:42,227
You carry a notebook with a quote

173
00:07:42,229 --> 00:07:45,696
from Asimov on the cover.
"Ideas Die Hard"?

174
00:07:45,698 --> 00:07:47,898
I extrapolated from a set
of known facts and got lucky.

175
00:07:47,900 --> 00:07:49,334
Honestly.

176
00:07:49,336 --> 00:07:51,736
You are quite an observant guy.

177
00:07:51,738 --> 00:07:53,371
Scientists need to be observant.

178
00:07:53,373 --> 00:07:56,607
Especially when
investigating new phenomena.

179
00:07:59,445 --> 00:08:01,078
And what about you?

180
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:02,579
What kind of, uh,

181
00:08:02,581 --> 00:08:05,616
important save-the-world work
are you doing at MIT?

182
00:08:05,618 --> 00:08:07,718
I'm creating a live model
of the solar system

183
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,987
in-in real time, based
on gravimetric data.

184
00:08:12,258 --> 00:08:14,158
I'm creating a map of space.

185
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,759
Sounds impressive.

186
00:08:15,761 --> 00:08:16,993
How's it going?

187
00:08:16,995 --> 00:08:18,228
Anything worth doing takes time.

188
00:08:18,230 --> 00:08:20,063
- Oh, so, in other words...
- Yeah.

189
00:08:20,065 --> 00:08:21,765
- ...it's not panning out?
- It's not panning out.

190
00:08:24,637 --> 00:08:27,937
When you're passionate about
something, time means nothing.

191
00:08:27,939 --> 00:08:32,776
And you're passionate
about celestial mechanics?

192
00:08:34,579 --> 00:08:36,846
- Yeah, absolutely.
- Yeah.

193
00:08:36,848 --> 00:08:40,249
When two celestial bodies
cross paths, it can, uh...

194
00:08:40,251 --> 00:08:43,119
It can...

195
00:08:43,121 --> 00:08:45,954
change their trajectories forever.

196
00:08:49,894 --> 00:08:51,960
So this is my apartment.

197
00:08:51,962 --> 00:08:54,096
- I like it.
- Yeah.

198
00:08:59,437 --> 00:09:00,936
Magic.

199
00:09:00,938 --> 00:09:03,572
I don't usually do this.

200
00:09:03,574 --> 00:09:04,539
I don't, either.

201
00:09:04,541 --> 00:09:06,441
Are you sure about this?

202
00:09:06,443 --> 00:09:09,344
Yes means yes.

203
00:09:32,001 --> 00:09:34,369
So that's how it is,

204
00:09:34,371 --> 00:09:36,437
MIT? Sneaking out?

205
00:09:36,439 --> 00:09:38,973
No, no, no, no, no, it's
not like that. My research.

206
00:09:38,975 --> 00:09:40,374
Yeah, your research
that hasn't generated

207
00:09:40,376 --> 00:09:42,910
- anything in months?
- Yes. No, I got a hit.

208
00:09:42,912 --> 00:09:46,480
I can't explain. Can I call you?
I'm gonna call you.

209
00:09:46,482 --> 00:09:49,383
You are amazing and beautiful.
I can't wait to read your stuff.

210
00:09:49,385 --> 00:09:52,486
I'm gonna call you, I promise.

211
00:09:54,957 --> 00:09:56,357
Professor Croft?

212
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,093
Professor Croft, it's Liam.

213
00:10:00,095 --> 00:10:01,295
Liam.

214
00:10:01,297 --> 00:10:02,796
What the hell time is it?

215
00:10:02,798 --> 00:10:04,265
- I got a hit.
- You got a hit?

216
00:10:04,267 --> 00:10:06,267
- Yeah.
- I'm going back to bed,

217
00:10:06,269 --> 00:10:08,334
and if you're lucky, I won't
remember this in the morning.

218
00:10:08,336 --> 00:10:10,436
Sir, if I'm right, people need
to see this immediately.

219
00:10:10,438 --> 00:10:12,639
You've got friends at, uh...
in Washington, at NASA

220
00:10:12,641 --> 00:10:14,074
- you can call, right?
- Washington? What?

221
00:10:14,076 --> 00:10:15,541
Are you drunk?

222
00:10:15,543 --> 00:10:17,110
Sir, that hurts.

223
00:10:17,112 --> 00:10:18,745
Well, last month,
you woke me up with this theory

224
00:10:18,747 --> 00:10:20,313
that we're all living
in a fractal holographic matrix.

225
00:10:20,315 --> 00:10:21,481
Remember that?

226
00:10:21,483 --> 00:10:22,883
Yeah, well, I-I may have had a few

227
00:10:22,885 --> 00:10:24,151
that night, sir, but
this is different. Mm.

228
00:10:24,153 --> 00:10:25,985
There's a significant perturbation.

229
00:10:25,987 --> 00:10:27,720
- Really?
- I've been running continual

230
00:10:27,722 --> 00:10:29,389
simulations, and there's something there

231
00:10:29,391 --> 00:10:30,990
- that was not there three months ago.
- Well, you know,

232
00:10:30,992 --> 00:10:32,392
a slight miscalculation
could taint the results.

233
00:10:32,394 --> 00:10:34,193
Why don't you give me the data?
I'll take a look.

234
00:10:34,195 --> 00:10:35,662
Yes. It's-it's already
uploaded to your server.

235
00:10:35,664 --> 00:10:37,563
Okay. Good.
Well, go home, get some sleep.

236
00:10:37,565 --> 00:10:38,765
We'll discuss this after class,

237
00:10:38,767 --> 00:10:40,232
which starts in about five hours.

238
00:10:40,234 --> 00:10:42,668
Try to be on time for once, all right?

239
00:10:42,670 --> 00:10:44,870
Oh, my God.

240
00:11:03,557 --> 00:11:05,990
This is Malcolm Croft.

241
00:11:05,992 --> 00:11:08,760
Yes, I know it's late,
but this can't wait.

242
00:11:08,762 --> 00:11:11,162
And finally, there have been
some reports in the press

243
00:11:11,164 --> 00:11:13,264
and elsewhere concerning
movement of nuclear material.

244
00:11:13,266 --> 00:11:15,033
This is nothing more
than routine maintenance

245
00:11:15,035 --> 00:11:18,236
required to keep our arsenals
safe, secure and reliable.

246
00:11:18,238 --> 00:11:19,237
Yes.

247
00:11:19,239 --> 00:11:20,538
Grace, are you saying

248
00:11:20,540 --> 00:11:22,040
Russian concerns
are completely unfounded?

249
00:11:22,042 --> 00:11:23,241
That's exactly what I'm saying, Russ.

250
00:11:23,243 --> 00:11:24,642
What kind of routine maintenance

251
00:11:24,644 --> 00:11:27,793
requires moving nuclear weapons
from the Utah desert to Florida?

252
00:11:27,818 --> 00:11:29,780
Those missiles were due to be retired.

253
00:11:29,782 --> 00:11:31,347
Nothing out of the ordinary, Ms...?

254
00:11:31,372 --> 00:11:33,584
Amanda Neel, Capitol Eyes News.

255
00:11:33,586 --> 00:11:35,519
And not according to my sources.

256
00:11:35,521 --> 00:11:37,187
Well, Amanda Neel of Capitol Eyes News,

257
00:11:37,189 --> 00:11:38,622
you may need better sources.

258
00:11:38,624 --> 00:11:41,058
Moving on.

259
00:11:41,060 --> 00:11:43,327
We had one non-combat
related death in Germany.

260
00:11:43,329 --> 00:11:45,229
U.S. diplomat succumbed
to injuries sustained

261
00:11:45,231 --> 00:11:46,731
while visiting Frankfurt.

262
00:11:50,435 --> 00:11:52,102
That's it. 15-minute rule.

263
00:11:52,104 --> 00:11:54,571
Croft's a no-show.
Let's get out of here.

264
00:12:17,228 --> 00:12:19,328
Professor Croft?

265
00:12:34,412 --> 00:12:36,812
911?

266
00:12:36,814 --> 00:12:38,680
There has been... has been a burglary,

267
00:12:38,682 --> 00:12:41,216
or a... or a kidnapping,
or I don't... I don't know what.

268
00:12:41,218 --> 00:12:42,851
But my professor... he...

269
00:12:42,853 --> 00:12:45,320
His place is trashed,
and he didn't show up for class.

270
00:12:45,322 --> 00:12:46,889
He left his glasses behind.

271
00:12:46,891 --> 00:12:48,757
No.

272
00:12:48,759 --> 00:12:51,092
No. No, I'm not on drugs.

273
00:12:53,397 --> 00:12:54,896
I'm sorry, Operator.

274
00:12:54,898 --> 00:12:56,464
I got... I got to go.

275
00:12:56,466 --> 00:12:58,133
I...

276
00:13:44,179 --> 00:13:45,712
Yeah, the first one is fine.

277
00:13:45,714 --> 00:13:47,547
Uh, from now on, they've got
to be approved by me, or...

278
00:13:47,549 --> 00:13:48,915
Good afternoon, Mr. Tanz.

279
00:13:48,917 --> 00:13:50,416
Good afternoon. We've got new people...

280
00:13:51,687 --> 00:13:53,086
...talking about it.

281
00:13:55,423 --> 00:13:57,958
Sir, my name's Liam Cole.
I'm a student at MIT.

282
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,393
In 186 days, an asteroid's
gonna collide with Earth

283
00:14:00,395 --> 00:14:02,717
and we're all gonna die.

00:14:15,742 --> 00:14:18,484
My name is Liam Cole.
I'm a student at MIT.

286
00:14:18,523 --> 00:14:20,722
My I.D. is in my wallet. It's...

287
00:14:22,572 --> 00:14:24,686
MIT grad. Astrophysics.

288
00:14:24,761 --> 00:14:27,062
- The shoeless guy.
- Yes, sir.

289
00:14:27,064 --> 00:14:29,164
Did we have an appointment
with the shoeless guy?

290
00:14:29,166 --> 00:14:30,499
Whoa!

291
00:14:30,501 --> 00:14:34,636
Easy. I got a flash drive
in my pocket with all the data.

292
00:14:39,475 --> 00:14:40,875
I've been running simulations,

293
00:14:40,877 --> 00:14:42,476
trying to solve the N-body problem.

294
00:14:42,478 --> 00:14:44,112
How asteroids, comets interact
with each other.

295
00:14:44,114 --> 00:14:47,215
Everybody at NASA is studying
NEOs we already know.

296
00:14:47,217 --> 00:14:50,484
I've been looking for the ones
we've missed, and I found one.

297
00:14:53,656 --> 00:14:56,424
I got the visuals here
if you want to take a look.

298
00:14:57,193 --> 00:14:58,693
Whoa.

299
00:14:58,695 --> 00:15:00,127
That's a holographic projector.

300
00:15:00,129 --> 00:15:02,230
Yeah, it's a little toy
I've been working on.

301
00:15:02,232 --> 00:15:05,466
Hope to have it in stores
by, um, Christmas 2020.

302
00:15:05,468 --> 00:15:07,935
If the world still exists.

303
00:15:10,405 --> 00:15:12,906
Let's hear it. I'm listening.

304
00:15:12,908 --> 00:15:16,176
Okay, yeah, well, uh,
this is the solar system today.

305
00:15:16,178 --> 00:15:18,011
And, uh, excuse me. If you don't mind...

306
00:15:18,013 --> 00:15:20,313
- I do.
- Um, and this...

307
00:15:20,315 --> 00:15:22,950
is the asteroid. Let's call it "Rocky."

308
00:15:22,952 --> 00:15:24,284
It's about 300 million miles out.

309
00:15:24,286 --> 00:15:25,719
Now, my software,

310
00:15:25,721 --> 00:15:27,520
which I'm happy to sell to you,
by the way,

311
00:15:27,522 --> 00:15:30,223
predicts a trajectory for this
asteroid to collide with Earth,

312
00:15:30,225 --> 00:15:32,859
like I said, in 186 days.

313
00:15:35,163 --> 00:15:37,364
Given its location and
its orbital configuration,

314
00:15:37,366 --> 00:15:42,869
there is a 97.2% probability
that this is a planet killer.

315
00:15:42,871 --> 00:15:45,504
Okay.

316
00:15:45,506 --> 00:15:46,839
That's your supposition... hardly proof

317
00:15:46,841 --> 00:15:48,474
that you or your data are correct.

318
00:15:48,476 --> 00:15:49,942
No, I-I rechecked

319
00:15:49,944 --> 00:15:51,710
all my calculations last night.
They're solid.

320
00:15:51,712 --> 00:15:53,880
And I showed the numbers
to my advisor, Professor Croft.

321
00:15:53,882 --> 00:15:55,614
Five hours later, he disappeared,

322
00:15:55,616 --> 00:15:57,016
and didn't show up for class.

323
00:15:57,018 --> 00:15:58,817
- His place was trashed.
- Trashed?

324
00:15:58,819 --> 00:16:00,419
There were big, scary goons
staking out his house.

325
00:16:00,421 --> 00:16:02,053
They chased my ass across campus.

326
00:16:02,055 --> 00:16:03,389
Now either this is
an amazing coincidence,

327
00:16:03,391 --> 00:16:04,690
or I'm onto something

328
00:16:04,692 --> 00:16:06,592
that someone, somewhere,
doesn't want public.

329
00:16:06,594 --> 00:16:09,161
I'm telling you, Mr. Tanz,
the sky is falling.

330
00:16:09,163 --> 00:16:12,464
And you may be the only person
that can do something about it.

331
00:16:14,335 --> 00:16:16,134
Karissa, bring a car and fuel the jet.

332
00:16:16,136 --> 00:16:19,204
- Where are you going?
- We're going. To Washington.

333
00:16:27,881 --> 00:16:30,215
Okay, this is the Pentagon.

334
00:16:30,217 --> 00:16:34,118
Wow. MIT is admitting
some big brains these days.

335
00:16:38,958 --> 00:16:42,893
- He's expecting you, Mr. Tanz.
- Sit. Wait.

336
00:16:42,895 --> 00:16:44,796
- But...
- Trust.

337
00:16:49,668 --> 00:16:50,968
Darius.

338
00:16:50,970 --> 00:16:53,304
They told me you were on your way over.

339
00:16:54,599 --> 00:16:56,513
- Is there a problem?
- Well, I'm not sure, Harris.

340
00:16:56,538 --> 00:16:57,507
It depends on whether

341
00:16:57,509 --> 00:16:59,043
a planet-killing asteroid
is heading our way.

342
00:16:59,045 --> 00:17:01,879
What are you talking about?

343
00:17:01,881 --> 00:17:03,247
Asteroid, Earth.

344
00:17:03,249 --> 00:17:05,014
Boom!

345
00:17:05,016 --> 00:17:07,584
You run DOD point for all things NASA.

346
00:17:07,586 --> 00:17:09,919
Okay, where are you getting
this science fiction from?

347
00:17:09,921 --> 00:17:10,854
So it's not true?

348
00:17:10,856 --> 00:17:12,422
No.

349
00:17:12,424 --> 00:17:15,258
Okay, then you won't mind me

350
00:17:15,260 --> 00:17:17,494
tweeting about an asteroid
poised to slam into Earth

351
00:17:17,496 --> 00:17:19,396
in, say, 186 days

352
00:17:19,398 --> 00:17:20,997
to my 20 million Twitter followers?

353
00:17:20,999 --> 00:17:23,233
Oh. Make that 21 million.

354
00:17:23,235 --> 00:17:24,868
Okay, Darius...

355
00:17:24,870 --> 00:17:26,469
So which is it?

356
00:17:26,471 --> 00:17:28,872
Science or fiction?

357
00:17:32,077 --> 00:17:34,577
So those Goliath 2 rocket
engines you ordered from me

358
00:17:34,579 --> 00:17:36,479
on an accelerated timeline, not exactly

359
00:17:36,481 --> 00:17:38,313
for communication satellites, I take it.

360
00:17:38,315 --> 00:17:40,015
We have the brightest minds
working the problem...

361
00:17:40,017 --> 00:17:42,351
No, you don't,
because you're not using me.

362
00:17:42,353 --> 00:17:44,487
Oh, so what?
Without the great Darius Tanz,

363
00:17:44,489 --> 00:17:46,255
we're all doomed? Is that it?

364
00:17:46,257 --> 00:17:48,357
The way I see it,
you've got two choices:

365
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,159
tell me or kill me.

366
00:17:55,465 --> 00:17:56,899
I'm going down to Joint Task Force.

367
00:17:56,901 --> 00:17:58,267
Have Grace Barrows meet me there.

368
00:17:58,269 --> 00:18:00,202
Who are you?

369
00:18:00,204 --> 00:18:02,737
Liam Cole, MIT grad student, sir.

370
00:18:02,739 --> 00:18:04,172
He arrived at the same

371
00:18:04,174 --> 00:18:06,474
conclusion as NASA, but his
computer did it autonomously

372
00:18:06,476 --> 00:18:08,643
while he was getting laid.

373
00:18:11,615 --> 00:18:15,016
Get Mr. Cole clearance. Now.

374
00:18:20,290 --> 00:18:21,756
You wanted to see me?

375
00:18:21,758 --> 00:18:24,826
Darius Tanz, Grace Barrows,
DOD Public Affairs.

376
00:18:24,828 --> 00:18:26,360
- Pleasure.
- We've met before.

377
00:18:26,362 --> 00:18:28,129
- Croatian Embassy.
- Good memory.

378
00:18:28,131 --> 00:18:29,797
Photographic. It's a curse, trust me.

379
00:18:29,799 --> 00:18:31,232
Liam Cole.

380
00:18:31,234 --> 00:18:33,100
- He works for me.
- I... I do.

381
00:18:33,102 --> 00:18:34,701
I work for him.

382
00:18:34,703 --> 00:18:36,837
Shall we?

383
00:19:10,805 --> 00:19:14,007
This is the command
center for Project Samson.

384
00:19:14,009 --> 00:19:16,576
Of the 30,000 people
who work in the Pentagon,

385
00:19:16,578 --> 00:19:18,310
fewer than 40 have clearance.

386
00:19:18,312 --> 00:19:21,524
Security and soundproof measures activated.

387
00:19:21,549 --> 00:19:23,916
Three months ago,
through the Safeguard Survey System

388
00:19:23,918 --> 00:19:26,919
that catalogues Near Earth
Objects, NASA astronomer

389
00:19:26,921 --> 00:19:30,222
Dr. Eduard Acosta discovered
an asteroid, Samson,

390
00:19:30,224 --> 00:19:32,658
seven kilometers wide, out near Jupiter.

391
00:19:32,660 --> 00:19:35,461
Large enough to cause an
extinction-level event.

392
00:19:35,463 --> 00:19:38,130
Trajectory data has now been firmed up,

393
00:19:38,132 --> 00:19:40,165
and the latest calculations
show that Samson has

394
00:19:40,167 --> 00:19:44,003
the potential to collide
with Earth in 186 days.

395
00:19:44,005 --> 00:19:46,238
Our simulations give
it a high probability of

396
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,840
impact off the East Coast
of the United States.

397
00:19:48,842 --> 00:19:50,208
So that's why you're moving those nukes.

398
00:19:50,210 --> 00:19:51,977
You think you're gonna
blow this fellow out of the sky.

399
00:19:51,979 --> 00:19:53,578
Well, nukes won't work.

400
00:19:54,615 --> 00:19:57,549
Sorry, but even if a nuclear explosion

401
00:19:57,551 --> 00:20:00,819
broke up the asteroid, it would
create thousands of meteors

402
00:20:00,821 --> 00:20:02,286
that would rain down on Earth,

403
00:20:02,288 --> 00:20:04,723
setting in motion cataclysmic
events all over the world.

404
00:20:04,725 --> 00:20:05,557
Thank you, Liam.

405
00:20:05,559 --> 00:20:06,991
No. He's right.

406
00:20:06,993 --> 00:20:08,859
It was explored, but
deemed too dangerous.

407
00:20:08,861 --> 00:20:11,795
We've been working on impact prevention

408
00:20:11,797 --> 00:20:13,964
since Chelyabinsk, back in 2013.

409
00:20:13,966 --> 00:20:16,234
That process has now been expedited.

410
00:20:16,236 --> 00:20:19,103
So what is the plan,
if you don't mind me asking?

411
00:20:20,206 --> 00:20:22,540
This.

412
00:20:22,542 --> 00:20:23,974
A gravity tractor.

413
00:20:25,678 --> 00:20:26,710
Oh, that would deflect the asteroid

414
00:20:26,712 --> 00:20:28,412
using gravitational pull.

415
00:20:29,348 --> 00:20:31,348
Sorry.

416
00:20:31,350 --> 00:20:33,417
We position a probe

417
00:20:33,419 --> 00:20:35,052
next to the asteroid.
Even though its mass

418
00:20:35,054 --> 00:20:37,755
is small, the probe generates
its own gravitational field.

419
00:20:37,757 --> 00:20:40,057
Diverting the asteroid's path
just enough to miss Earth.

420
00:20:40,059 --> 00:20:41,824
But you need a rocket powerful enough

421
00:20:41,826 --> 00:20:45,028
to get it there in time, and
that rocket doesn't exist yet.

422
00:20:45,030 --> 00:20:46,996
Well, actually, it does.

423
00:20:46,998 --> 00:20:48,698
We've modified one of your rockets,

424
00:20:48,700 --> 00:20:49,966
the Goliath 2.

425
00:20:49,968 --> 00:20:52,369
The test phase is almost
complete. We launch next week.

426
00:20:52,371 --> 00:20:55,572
We have full confidence this
will take care of the problem,

427
00:20:55,574 --> 00:20:57,339
and no one will be the wiser.

428
00:21:01,312 --> 00:21:04,346
I'm sure you understand why
this needs to remain classified.

429
00:21:04,348 --> 00:21:05,615
If the public were to find out...

430
00:21:05,617 --> 00:21:07,349
Of course. Anything you need.

431
00:21:07,351 --> 00:21:09,686
My entire company stands at
your disposal, ready to help.

432
00:21:09,688 --> 00:21:11,788
Ah, we'll take that under advisement.

433
00:21:11,790 --> 00:21:14,457
Most important thing right now
is that we carry on

434
00:21:14,459 --> 00:21:16,192
business as usual.

435
00:21:17,328 --> 00:21:19,295
Liam.

436
00:21:20,198 --> 00:21:22,064
Will I see you tonight

437
00:21:22,066 --> 00:21:23,365
at the Embassy Ball?

438
00:21:23,367 --> 00:21:24,866
Absolutely. How about you, Grace?

439
00:21:24,868 --> 00:21:27,002
Yes.

440
00:21:27,004 --> 00:21:28,237
Wouldn't miss it.

441
00:21:28,239 --> 00:21:29,938
Tonight, then.

442
00:21:33,744 --> 00:21:35,376
Business as usual?

443
00:21:35,378 --> 00:21:37,345
Do you own a tux?
No. Of course you don't.

444
00:21:37,347 --> 00:21:39,681
My professor is missing,
an asteroid is coming,

445
00:21:39,683 --> 00:21:41,650
and you're talking
about going to a party.

446
00:21:41,652 --> 00:21:43,118
Did you believe
anything he said in there

447
00:21:43,120 --> 00:21:44,552
about having it under control?

448
00:21:44,554 --> 00:21:46,787
Oh, we're not gonna wait
for the government to save us.

449
00:21:46,789 --> 00:21:48,598
We're gonna save ourselves.

450
00:21:58,539 --> 00:22:00,158
I know.

451
00:22:00,976 --> 00:22:02,642
It's a lot to take in.

452
00:22:04,406 --> 00:22:06,939
How long have you been carrying this?

453
00:22:06,941 --> 00:22:09,308
Three months.

454
00:22:11,379 --> 00:22:13,212
So the nukes aren't undergoing
routine maintenance.

455
00:22:13,214 --> 00:22:14,580
If the gravity tractor fails,

456
00:22:14,582 --> 00:22:16,882
they're the last line of defense.

457
00:22:16,884 --> 00:22:18,918
But you're confident this will work?

458
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,452
Yes.

459
00:22:20,454 --> 00:22:22,187
Yes, Grace.

460
00:22:25,159 --> 00:22:27,826
Why are you telling me
this now? Why bring me in?

461
00:22:27,828 --> 00:22:29,862
Because the playing field just changed.

462
00:22:29,864 --> 00:22:31,463
Information got into the wild.

463
00:22:31,465 --> 00:22:33,799
And you need me to contain it.

464
00:22:43,610 --> 00:22:45,043
I'm sorry.

465
00:22:46,813 --> 00:22:49,347
I never wanted to burden you with this.

466
00:22:51,317 --> 00:22:53,417
You don't have to stay.

467
00:22:55,989 --> 00:22:58,022
I can't leave.

468
00:22:58,024 --> 00:23:00,157
Not now.

469
00:23:01,061 --> 00:23:04,295
But, Harris, if I stay...

470
00:23:05,932 --> 00:23:07,898
...no more secrets.

471
00:23:09,668 --> 00:23:12,103
No more secrets.

472
00:23:30,422 --> 00:23:32,222
I'm heading out.

473
00:23:32,224 --> 00:23:34,224
I'm sleeping at Kira's.
It's not to avoid curfew.

474
00:23:34,226 --> 00:23:35,626
You look nice.

475
00:23:35,628 --> 00:23:37,628
Zoe, I just got a text from your father

476
00:23:37,630 --> 00:23:38,862
about a gap year?

477
00:23:38,864 --> 00:23:41,498
Uh...

478
00:23:41,500 --> 00:23:43,133
I was gonna tell you.

479
00:23:43,135 --> 00:23:45,034
Tell me what?

480
00:23:45,036 --> 00:23:47,803
I applied to a community
outreach program in Kenya.

481
00:23:47,805 --> 00:23:49,839
It starts in September.

482
00:23:49,841 --> 00:23:51,707
Africa? Uh, whoa-whoa...

483
00:23:51,709 --> 00:23:54,644
- Okay. Wh-What about Duke?
- They said I could defer for a year.

484
00:23:54,646 --> 00:23:56,212
- They were really cool about it.
- Do you know how many Americans

485
00:23:56,214 --> 00:23:58,247
- were kidnapped last year abroad?
- Oh, I knew you were gonna say that.

486
00:23:58,249 --> 00:24:00,683
Mom, it's more dangerous to
drive a car than go to Africa.

487
00:24:00,685 --> 00:24:02,952
- Honey, now is not the time.
- You are the one who's always telling me

488
00:24:02,954 --> 00:24:04,887
- it's my responsibility to contribute...
- Yes. Yes.

489
00:24:04,889 --> 00:24:06,455
- ...to help those less fortunate.
- Yes. But not now!

490
00:24:06,457 --> 00:24:08,590
Mom. Look, I know that this is scary

491
00:24:08,592 --> 00:24:11,027
for you... letting go. But...

492
00:24:11,029 --> 00:24:13,562
you're not gonna be able to
make the world safe for me,

493
00:24:13,564 --> 00:24:15,730
so please, stop trying.

494
00:24:38,755 --> 00:24:40,889
Thank you.

495
00:24:45,062 --> 00:24:46,994
New York Times, Washington Post...

496
00:24:46,996 --> 00:24:48,696
how am I supposed to compete with that?

497
00:24:48,698 --> 00:24:50,364
Got to get creative.

498
00:24:50,366 --> 00:24:51,499
When you're the little fish,

499
00:24:51,501 --> 00:24:53,534
you see things the big fish miss,

500
00:24:53,536 --> 00:24:55,636
'cause they're too busy
puckering up to other big fish.

501
00:24:55,638 --> 00:24:57,205
Whoa.

502
00:24:57,230 --> 00:24:58,727
Darius Tanz.

503
00:24:58,751 --> 00:25:00,242
- Always wanted to meet that guy.
- Hey.

504
00:25:00,243 --> 00:25:02,076
Now that's where you're
missing the story.

505
00:25:02,078 --> 00:25:04,377
You're looking at the wrong fish.

506
00:25:04,379 --> 00:25:06,180
Darius.

507
00:25:06,182 --> 00:25:08,515
So, uh, who are all these people?

508
00:25:08,517 --> 00:25:11,618
Congressmen, diplomats, heads
of state, heads of corporations.

509
00:25:11,620 --> 00:25:13,386
Pretty much everyone who's anyone,

510
00:25:13,388 --> 00:25:15,089
so that makes you...

511
00:25:15,091 --> 00:25:16,456
anyone.

512
00:25:16,458 --> 00:25:17,758
Oh, I'm... I'm honored.

513
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,593
And this is all
part of your big plan, right?

514
00:25:19,595 --> 00:25:22,829
I'm here to make certain
connections, and, uh,

515
00:25:22,831 --> 00:25:25,632
you're here for the free food. Enjoy.

516
00:25:25,634 --> 00:25:28,468
Great, I'll go visit with the
chairman of the Joint Chiefs.

517
00:25:28,470 --> 00:25:29,703
Try not to spill any wine

518
00:25:29,705 --> 00:25:32,405
or any national security secrets.

519
00:25:32,407 --> 00:25:34,574
How you doing, sir?

520
00:25:36,911 --> 00:25:39,112
Do you mind if I steal
Ms. Barrows for a moment?

521
00:25:39,114 --> 00:25:40,146
Of course.

522
00:25:40,148 --> 00:25:42,648
Uh, it was nice seeing you.

523
00:25:46,721 --> 00:25:48,454
Ironic, don't you think?
People drinking,

524
00:25:48,456 --> 00:25:49,989
celebrating, dancing.

525
00:25:49,991 --> 00:25:52,125
No idea that the world
is coming to an end.

526
00:25:52,127 --> 00:25:53,859
You heard what Harris said.

527
00:25:53,861 --> 00:25:55,227
They have a plan.

528
00:25:55,229 --> 00:25:56,428
Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize

529
00:25:56,430 --> 00:25:58,196
you believed all that crap in there.

530
00:25:58,198 --> 00:26:01,233
But I don't want to cause waves
between you and your boyfriend.

531
00:26:01,235 --> 00:26:03,402
- W-What?
- I'm good at reading people.

532
00:26:03,404 --> 00:26:05,404
It's a gift and a curse.

533
00:26:05,406 --> 00:26:08,507
Well, your skills are remedial, at best.

534
00:26:08,509 --> 00:26:11,309
I like you, Grace.
The way you handle yourself.

535
00:26:11,311 --> 00:26:12,911
You are extraordinary.

536
00:26:12,913 --> 00:26:14,746
In an ordinary way.

537
00:26:14,748 --> 00:26:17,048
Wow. Thank you.

538
00:26:17,050 --> 00:26:19,417
That's the worst compliment
I've ever gotten.

539
00:26:19,419 --> 00:26:21,219
Which makes it an insult, actually.

540
00:26:21,221 --> 00:26:22,254
No, it's a gift.

541
00:26:22,256 --> 00:26:24,389
You're tough, loyal, believable.

542
00:26:24,391 --> 00:26:26,957
People trust you even when
maybe they shouldn't.

543
00:26:28,662 --> 00:26:31,429
Darius, it was a pleasure. Good night.

544
00:26:31,431 --> 00:26:33,964
Look, I've known
Harris Edwards for 15 years,

545
00:26:33,966 --> 00:26:35,966
ever since he was
a lowly captain at CENTCOM.

546
00:26:35,968 --> 00:26:37,942
He's a patriot,
but he's also a bureaucrat.

547
00:26:37,966 --> 00:26:39,104
Meaning?

548
00:26:39,105 --> 00:26:41,138
I don't think he's telling
either of us the whole truth.

549
00:26:41,140 --> 00:26:44,474
What if I told you that the
government's plan was bollocks,

550
00:26:44,476 --> 00:26:46,110
that I have a real plan,

551
00:26:46,112 --> 00:26:48,612
but I need someone on the inside?

552
00:26:48,614 --> 00:26:50,614
And what is this plan?

553
00:26:50,616 --> 00:26:53,684
Are you up for some show and tell?

554
00:26:55,754 --> 00:26:56,854
This is Jillian.

555
00:26:56,856 --> 00:26:58,055
Leave a message. Resistance is futile.

556
00:26:58,057 --> 00:27:00,524
Hi, Jillian, it's Liam.

557
00:27:00,526 --> 00:27:03,427
Uh, I'm sorry I disappeared.

558
00:27:03,429 --> 00:27:05,228
It's a long story, but, uh,

559
00:27:05,230 --> 00:27:07,063
I've been thinking about you a lot.

560
00:27:07,065 --> 00:27:09,933
Disappeared on a girl?

561
00:27:09,935 --> 00:27:11,335
What does one make of that?

562
00:27:11,337 --> 00:27:14,504
Uh, one makes nothing of it,

563
00:27:14,506 --> 00:27:16,005
unless one's eavesdropping, apparently.

564
00:27:16,007 --> 00:27:18,474
Well, that's what makes
these parties go round.

565
00:27:18,476 --> 00:27:20,176
So who are you?

566
00:27:20,178 --> 00:27:22,478
Me, I'm... I'm just a nobody.

567
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,580
That's a lot of tuxedo for a nobody.

568
00:27:24,582 --> 00:27:27,250
All right, you got me. I'm
Darius's new head of security.

569
00:27:27,252 --> 00:27:29,452
More dangerous with weapons
or just your bare hands?

570
00:27:29,454 --> 00:27:31,520
You don't want to test it, trust me.

571
00:27:31,522 --> 00:27:32,988
I'm Amanda.

572
00:27:32,990 --> 00:27:34,724
Liam.

573
00:27:34,726 --> 00:27:36,091
What brings you here, Amanda?

574
00:27:36,093 --> 00:27:38,627
Oh, I just snagged an invite
from a friend.

575
00:27:38,629 --> 00:27:40,563
I like to be where the action is.

576
00:27:40,565 --> 00:27:42,498
Never know who you'll meet.

577
00:27:43,934 --> 00:27:45,501
Uh...

578
00:27:45,766 --> 00:27:47,141
Sorry, uh...

579
00:27:47,219 --> 00:27:48,937
- my, uh...
- _

580
00:27:49,422 --> 00:27:51,139
my ride's leaving. I gotta go.

581
00:27:51,141 --> 00:27:52,607
Oh, I didn't catch your last name, Liam.

582
00:27:52,609 --> 00:27:54,809
That's 'cause I didn't give it to you.

583
00:27:56,247 --> 00:27:58,813
Hey, if you ever want to chat

584
00:27:58,815 --> 00:28:00,949
or hang out, give a ring.

585
00:28:03,988 --> 00:28:05,186
Sure.

586
00:28:22,705 --> 00:28:25,506
Tanz Industries.

587
00:28:25,508 --> 00:28:27,708
This place is legendary.

588
00:28:27,710 --> 00:28:29,076
Ten miles from D.C.,

589
00:28:29,078 --> 00:28:31,745
but a world away...
my home away from home.

590
00:28:33,682 --> 00:28:35,082
Welcome to the Treehouse.

591
00:28:35,084 --> 00:28:37,451
Hello, Darius.

592
00:28:37,453 --> 00:28:39,219
I had a treehouse growing up,

593
00:28:39,221 --> 00:28:40,888
and it looked nothing like this.

594
00:28:40,890 --> 00:28:43,156
Anything and everything
you can dream up,

595
00:28:43,158 --> 00:28:45,358
you can design and build it here.

596
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,127
An inspiration factory.

597
00:28:47,129 --> 00:28:49,596
Willy Wonka, without the Oompa-Loompas.

598
00:28:49,598 --> 00:28:52,966
Okay, you win man cave
of the universe award.

599
00:28:52,968 --> 00:28:54,600
What was so important it couldn't wait?

600
00:28:54,602 --> 00:28:57,003
Tess, please run program T6.

601
00:28:57,005 --> 00:28:58,538
Program T6 loaded.

602
00:28:58,540 --> 00:29:01,174
Playback.

603
00:29:01,176 --> 00:29:02,809
What are we looking at?

604
00:29:02,811 --> 00:29:06,679
This is RIVA: my Reusable
Interplanetary Vehicle,

605
00:29:06,681 --> 00:29:08,915
designed to be a cargo
transport to Mars.

606
00:29:08,917 --> 00:29:11,451
How is that gonna stop a meteor?

607
00:29:11,453 --> 00:29:13,252
It's not.

608
00:29:14,288 --> 00:29:16,656
We're re-purposing it...

609
00:29:16,658 --> 00:29:19,492
as a lifeboat... this is an ark, Grace.

610
00:29:19,494 --> 00:29:23,763
It's gonna save the human race
from... extinction.

611
00:29:33,652 --> 00:29:36,527
You're planning for the
extinction of the human race?

612
00:29:36,776 --> 00:29:40,117
No, I'm planning for the
continuation of the human race.

613
00:29:40,119 --> 00:29:42,386
Have you ever heard
of the concept "MVP"...

614
00:29:42,388 --> 00:29:43,754
minimal viable population?

615
00:29:43,756 --> 00:29:45,456
Each species has a threshold.

616
00:29:45,458 --> 00:29:47,258
The minimum number
of individuals required

617
00:29:47,260 --> 00:29:49,993
- to prevent extinction.
- Exactly.

618
00:29:49,995 --> 00:29:52,996
For humans, that number is 160 saved.

619
00:29:52,998 --> 00:29:55,298
Just 160 well-chosen souls

620
00:29:55,300 --> 00:29:56,833
save the species.

621
00:29:56,835 --> 00:29:58,701
So your plan is to make a getaway

622
00:29:58,703 --> 00:30:02,372
on a spaceship with 160 of your besties

623
00:30:02,374 --> 00:30:03,907
and fly to Mars?

624
00:30:03,909 --> 00:30:05,575
Well, we might have to orbit for a while

625
00:30:05,577 --> 00:30:06,709
until we set up shop.

626
00:30:06,711 --> 00:30:08,544
This was supposed to be
a seven-year plan.

627
00:30:08,546 --> 00:30:09,812
I'm accelerating it.

628
00:30:09,814 --> 00:30:11,714
- I'm sorry, this is...
- Nuts.

629
00:30:11,716 --> 00:30:12,948
You're betting on
the government to fail.

630
00:30:12,950 --> 00:30:14,450
- I'm not.
- I don't make bets.

631
00:30:14,452 --> 00:30:17,019
I make calculated decisions
based on facts,

632
00:30:17,021 --> 00:30:18,954
and the fact is the government's
plan won't work.

633
00:30:18,956 --> 00:30:21,658
They need technology that
hasn't been invented yet.

634
00:30:21,660 --> 00:30:23,058
They won't tell you that, of course.

635
00:30:23,060 --> 00:30:24,860
Or maybe they haven't even
figured that part out yet.

636
00:30:24,862 --> 00:30:27,096
Why did you bring me here, Darius?

637
00:30:27,098 --> 00:30:32,034
If I can expedite production,
make a dozen RIVAs or more,

638
00:30:32,036 --> 00:30:34,937
instead of 160 people,
maybe I can save thousands.

639
00:30:34,939 --> 00:30:37,907
But I need access to
information and resources

640
00:30:37,909 --> 00:30:39,574
that only a few people
in the government have.

641
00:30:39,576 --> 00:30:41,743
I need an inside man.

642
00:30:41,745 --> 00:30:43,578
Or woman, as they say.

643
00:30:43,580 --> 00:30:46,881
You're asking me to divert resources,

644
00:30:46,883 --> 00:30:51,152
spy on my government,
commit treason for some

645
00:30:51,154 --> 00:30:53,722
insane narcissistic suicide mission?

646
00:30:53,724 --> 00:30:56,958
The only suicide mission
is wearing blinders, Grace.

647
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:58,993
Harris assured me that they...

648
00:30:58,995 --> 00:31:01,896
Harris will trot you out
to deliver his lies,

649
00:31:01,898 --> 00:31:03,397
the masses will believe you,

650
00:31:03,399 --> 00:31:05,333
and no one will be prepared
for what's coming

651
00:31:05,335 --> 00:31:07,836
except for me and the people
on this list.

652
00:31:09,706 --> 00:31:12,873
I don't want to save 160 people.

653
00:31:12,875 --> 00:31:14,408
I want to save everyone.

654
00:31:31,393 --> 00:31:32,692
Look, man, I, uh...

655
00:31:32,694 --> 00:31:34,828
I want to help you, but

656
00:31:34,830 --> 00:31:36,596
there's this girl up in Boston,

657
00:31:36,598 --> 00:31:38,866
and if this is really
the end, I guess I, uh,

658
00:31:38,868 --> 00:31:41,869
I wanna live before I die.

659
00:31:41,871 --> 00:31:44,872
Karissa, get the plane ready.

660
00:31:44,874 --> 00:31:48,708
No, I'll, uh... I'll
take the train, thanks.

661
00:32:00,021 --> 00:32:02,088
- Is he available?
- He's not in, Ms. Barrows.

662
00:32:02,090 --> 00:32:04,423
Oh, I didn't see anything
on the schedule.

663
00:32:04,425 --> 00:32:06,292
I expect him back early this evening.

664
00:32:18,614 --> 00:32:21,215
_

665
00:32:32,052 --> 00:32:34,453
So you were with Darius

666
00:32:34,455 --> 00:32:36,354
Tanz at a ball in

667
00:32:36,356 --> 00:32:38,556
- Washington, D.C.?
- More of a reception.

668
00:32:38,558 --> 00:32:40,191
Yeah, I wasn't blowing you off, I swear.

669
00:32:40,193 --> 00:32:42,961
No, but he had offered you
a job, and you said, "No."

670
00:32:42,963 --> 00:32:44,529
Why?

671
00:32:44,531 --> 00:32:50,168
Uh, because I have
unfinished business here.

672
00:32:50,170 --> 00:32:52,804
Anyway, what's going on
with you? Tell me about you.

673
00:32:52,806 --> 00:32:56,173
I actually got some really
good news yesterday.

674
00:32:56,174 --> 00:32:57,132
Yeah?

675
00:32:57,157 --> 00:32:59,844
Yeah, this publisher liked
one of my short stories.

676
00:32:59,846 --> 00:33:01,612
- That's fantastic!
- Yeah.

677
00:33:01,614 --> 00:33:03,047
What's it about?

678
00:33:03,049 --> 00:33:05,249
What else? The future.

679
00:33:10,022 --> 00:33:11,388
Hey, let's take a road trip.

680
00:33:11,389 --> 00:33:12,808
What?

681
00:33:12,833 --> 00:33:14,358
Yeah, I want to spend
all my time with you,

682
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:16,126
travel, see the world
before it's too late.

683
00:33:16,128 --> 00:33:18,662
- What about your research?
- Screw my research.

684
00:33:18,664 --> 00:33:21,332
I want to have fun, enjoy life.

685
00:33:50,128 --> 00:33:52,195
Sorry.

686
00:33:52,197 --> 00:33:54,397
Hey, hey, hey,
Liam, maybe we should go home.

687
00:33:54,399 --> 00:33:55,999
No, no, the night is young.

688
00:33:56,001 --> 00:33:57,467
I want to live before I...

689
00:33:57,469 --> 00:34:00,235
Hey. You got a problem, little man?

690
00:34:00,237 --> 00:34:02,204
Yeah. You.

691
00:34:03,307 --> 00:34:04,607
Yes, sir,

692
00:34:04,609 --> 00:34:06,441
all the information
will be sent your way.

693
00:34:08,646 --> 00:34:10,713
Hey.

694
00:34:10,715 --> 00:34:12,481
- What are you still doing here?
- Oh, I had

695
00:34:12,483 --> 00:34:14,082
a few things to get out the door.

696
00:34:14,084 --> 00:34:17,886
Where have you been?

697
00:34:19,490 --> 00:34:22,290
Harris, you got to keep me in the loop.

698
00:34:22,292 --> 00:34:24,159
Otherwise, I can't do my job.

699
00:34:24,161 --> 00:34:26,128
Yeah.

700
00:34:31,034 --> 00:34:33,835
There was a burn test today
of the Goliath 2 rocket engine.

701
00:34:33,837 --> 00:34:35,770
The one being used
to launch the gravity tractor?

702
00:34:35,772 --> 00:34:37,939
- Mm-hmm.
- And how'd it go?

703
00:34:37,941 --> 00:34:40,374
We're right on schedule.

704
00:34:40,376 --> 00:34:42,343
Oh, that's fantastic.

705
00:34:42,345 --> 00:34:44,512
Yeah.

706
00:34:44,514 --> 00:34:46,848
Fantastic.

707
00:34:52,588 --> 00:34:54,121
- Hey, Carn.
- Hey.

708
00:34:54,123 --> 00:34:55,656
How's the night shift?

709
00:34:55,658 --> 00:34:57,191
Oh, it's a barrel of laughs.

710
00:34:58,727 --> 00:35:01,162
I need to see satellite
imagery from Wallops Island

711
00:35:01,164 --> 00:35:02,796
from around 2:00 this afternoon.

712
00:35:02,798 --> 00:35:06,232
Uh, Grace, this is the Pentagon,
not Best Buy.

713
00:35:06,234 --> 00:35:07,568
No uplinks without clearance

714
00:35:07,570 --> 00:35:09,069
or an approved telemetry request.

715
00:35:09,071 --> 00:35:10,537
Clearance I have.

716
00:35:10,539 --> 00:35:12,338
It's time I'm short on.

717
00:35:14,043 --> 00:35:16,910
Remember when you broke
your ankle playing softball?

718
00:35:16,912 --> 00:35:18,411
How long before your request for

719
00:35:18,413 --> 00:35:19,846
a closer parking spot went through?

720
00:35:19,848 --> 00:35:21,314
All I'm asking is to

721
00:35:21,316 --> 00:35:22,882
cut through a little red tape.

722
00:35:22,884 --> 00:35:24,784
You're gonna owe me for this.

723
00:35:24,786 --> 00:35:29,055
Nats tickets, box seats,
right behind the dugout.

724
00:35:30,725 --> 00:35:32,525
Okay.

725
00:35:37,865 --> 00:35:39,565
What are we looking at?

726
00:35:39,567 --> 00:35:43,669
Fragments of a Tanz Goliath 2 rocket.

727
00:35:43,671 --> 00:35:45,204
Can you back it up?

728
00:35:45,206 --> 00:35:47,073
Uh...

729
00:35:47,447 --> 00:35:50,838
Not sure what they were testing,
but I'd say they failed.

730
00:35:51,079 --> 00:35:53,079
With flying colors.

731
00:36:01,894 --> 00:36:03,660
Shut it down, Carn.

732
00:36:03,662 --> 00:36:04,895
Is-is everything okay?

733
00:36:04,897 --> 00:36:06,964
I'll have those Nats tickets
for you stat.

734
00:36:06,966 --> 00:36:09,200
All right.

735
00:36:20,646 --> 00:36:23,413
What the...

736
00:36:53,711 --> 00:36:55,310
Hey.

737
00:36:55,312 --> 00:36:57,780
Hey.

738
00:36:59,684 --> 00:37:02,618
You putting final touches on the speech?

739
00:37:02,620 --> 00:37:04,620
Yeah.

740
00:37:06,190 --> 00:37:08,657
Zoe.

741
00:37:09,927 --> 00:37:12,394
I'm sorry.

742
00:37:14,798 --> 00:37:17,966
You're right. I can't make
the world safe for you.

743
00:37:22,305 --> 00:37:24,072
It's your life.

744
00:37:24,074 --> 00:37:27,442
I want you to live it.

745
00:37:27,444 --> 00:37:29,143
Mom, are you all right?

746
00:37:29,145 --> 00:37:31,646
Yeah. Yeah.

747
00:37:33,149 --> 00:37:34,649
I just love you.

748
00:37:34,651 --> 00:37:37,452
I know.

749
00:37:52,135 --> 00:37:54,702
Thank you.

750
00:37:58,574 --> 00:38:00,874
You see that?

751
00:38:00,876 --> 00:38:03,711
That is Mars at perigee.

752
00:38:03,713 --> 00:38:07,347
It's as close
as it's gonna get all year.

753
00:38:07,349 --> 00:38:10,918
I don't usually drink like that.

754
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,820
Then why did you?

755
00:38:16,725 --> 00:38:18,191
Can I ask you something?

756
00:38:18,193 --> 00:38:19,626
Mm-hmm.

757
00:38:19,628 --> 00:38:22,061
If you were writing a story about a...

758
00:38:22,063 --> 00:38:25,565
a guy who knew the world
was coming to an end,

759
00:38:25,567 --> 00:38:28,701
and he could either
save a couple thousand people

760
00:38:28,703 --> 00:38:32,605
or live the rest of his days
with a beautiful woman,

761
00:38:32,607 --> 00:38:34,974
what would you have him do?

762
00:38:34,976 --> 00:38:36,743
It depends.

763
00:38:36,745 --> 00:38:39,478
Is the character supposed to be a hero

764
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:41,681
or a loser?

765
00:38:41,683 --> 00:38:43,249
Ow.

766
00:38:43,251 --> 00:38:46,318
Uh...

767
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:48,487
a hero.

768
00:38:48,489 --> 00:38:52,424
Well, then he has to
sacrifice his happiness

769
00:38:52,426 --> 00:38:54,726
for the sake of humanity.

770
00:38:56,130 --> 00:39:00,932
Even if he thinks
he's in love with the woman?

771
00:39:00,934 --> 00:39:04,136
Mm, especially if he is.

772
00:39:04,138 --> 00:39:06,471
Then it's a true sacrifice.

773
00:39:14,281 --> 00:39:16,982
Tell me more about the stars.

774
00:39:20,220 --> 00:39:21,553
The stars, okay.

775
00:39:21,555 --> 00:39:24,088
Uh...

776
00:39:24,090 --> 00:39:28,693
That's Sirius, aka the dog star.

777
00:39:29,729 --> 00:39:33,198
It's the brightest star in the sky.

778
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,000
And then up here, see this one up here?

779
00:39:38,437 --> 00:39:41,706
Class of 2017, it is an honor

780
00:39:41,708 --> 00:39:43,974
to be able to address you all
here today.

781
00:39:43,976 --> 00:39:47,578
The future is not just handed to us.

782
00:39:47,580 --> 00:39:50,447
We create it.

783
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,794
Life is filled with possibilities.

784
00:40:04,796 --> 00:40:09,065
There is no tomorrow without us.

785
00:40:09,067 --> 00:40:13,569
My mother taught me at a young age

786
00:40:13,571 --> 00:40:18,074
that, as individuals, we are powerful.

787
00:40:18,098 --> 00:40:21,755
_

788
00:40:21,780 --> 00:40:25,748
How we use that power is up to us.

789
00:40:32,290 --> 00:40:36,359
I dreaded all the emotion of
saying good-bye to my friends,

790
00:40:36,361 --> 00:40:37,693
my family.

791
00:40:37,695 --> 00:40:39,862
As exciting as the future is...

792
00:40:41,766 --> 00:40:43,999
...it's also scary.

793
00:40:46,804 --> 00:40:49,004
It's the unknown.

794
00:40:50,540 --> 00:40:52,374
Hello?

795
00:40:52,376 --> 00:40:56,511
But then I started realizing
this isn't the end,

796
00:40:56,513 --> 00:40:58,546
this is just the beginning.

797
00:40:59,750 --> 00:41:03,885
My challenge for the class of 2017?

798
00:41:03,887 --> 00:41:05,587
Make a difference.

799
00:41:05,589 --> 00:41:08,856
There are problems big and small
that need to be solved,

800
00:41:08,858 --> 00:41:13,261
and we can't wait
for someone else to solve them.

801
00:41:13,263 --> 00:41:15,296
It's up to us now.

802
00:41:22,272 --> 00:41:23,938
Screw you and your ark.

803
00:41:25,374 --> 00:41:27,441
Nice to see you, too.

804
00:41:28,444 --> 00:41:30,644
You're right, Darius.

805
00:41:30,646 --> 00:41:32,112
The government's plan won't work.

806
00:41:32,114 --> 00:41:33,980
They need you.

807
00:41:33,982 --> 00:41:36,583
You said the technology
doesn't exist yet.

808
00:41:36,585 --> 00:41:38,885
If you're so damn smart, invent it.

809
00:41:38,887 --> 00:41:41,455
You've got the resources,
the talent, the money.

810
00:41:41,457 --> 00:41:44,124
Don't save 160 people, save them all.

811
00:41:44,126 --> 00:41:46,293
Every last one.

812
00:41:46,295 --> 00:41:48,829
Come work with us.

813
00:41:48,831 --> 00:41:51,832
Let's do this together.

814
00:41:51,834 --> 00:41:54,434
I will do whatever it takes.

815
00:41:54,436 --> 00:41:56,803
I'll roll through red tape,
whatever you need from me,

816
00:41:56,805 --> 00:41:59,572
but, damn it, my daughter
deserves a future.

817
00:41:59,574 --> 00:42:01,041
They all do.

818
00:42:03,177 --> 00:42:05,077
And I'm not ready
for all of this to end.

819
00:42:05,079 --> 00:42:08,080
Grace...

820
00:42:08,082 --> 00:42:11,384
y-you had me at "screw you."

821
00:42:15,824 --> 00:42:17,223
Hi.

822
00:42:20,061 --> 00:42:22,127
Where can I put my stuff?

823
00:42:27,222 --> 00:42:29,935
In the words of the great
humanitarian Mother Teresa:

824
00:42:29,937 --> 00:42:31,971
"Yesterday is gone.

825
00:42:31,973 --> 00:42:34,639
"Tomorrow has not yet come.

826
00:42:34,641 --> 00:42:35,940
"We have only today.

827
00:42:35,942 --> 00:42:39,310
So, let us begin."

828
00:42:46,934 --> 00:42:51,934
