[Music] we're on a collision course with unknown objects make corrections sam are you religious i'll stop now [Music] cat ships a dozen no more they've got us pinned against the scorch they are scanning us i'll find them we'll scan them back [Music] where is the one who activated the remnant their dna signature is there answer me you're the one in my way who are you they've lost navigation we're being steered into their ship just tell me what you want i won't explain what you can't understand i have almost regained control of the ship i need a few more seconds you can't take a ship full of people just because you feel like it who do you think you are enough your defiance is naive and reckless this day marks the beginning of your greatness [Music] sam i have plotted a potential course through the scourge do it report enemy destroyed damage to app sensors scrooge got it it will be tight callow yes nice work kid yeah but who the hell was that guy ryder we've got trouble down here you need to find the support now great where'd we end up anyway sensors are damaged but i think we're at the vaults coordinates you think gill give it what you can we're setting down [Music] we're being contacted we have to land open a calm gigalesto we're visitors from another galaxy our intentions are peaceful they've sent us a nap point set us down yes look at that it's beautiful [Music] we need in that vault please you're not really going out there on your own we can't afford a repeat of last time i'm the pathfinder first contact is on me most important thing ever no pressure this is what it's all about right new worlds new aliens wish me luck thank you hey hamdul ghost nathan drawer hello i'm a pathfinder with the initiative yes you crossed dark space i've heard of your journey joel i have this in hand ephra saw this ship come in and sent me to find out what's going on he's a human from another galaxy a pathfinder ayah is hidden protected what do you want i apologize landing here the way we did without warning on fire was not the plan that's good to know because if it was that would be a very bad plan i'll inform efra he'll be waiting for you in his office at the resistance headquarters i'll meet you there i will accompany you through our city your crew will stay on your ship follow me they are bullies but this situation is now your fault don't get kicked out more and not because of them but you're telling me to be weak no i am telling you to be strong through your cunning and heart okay hey it really is the best one in the resistance i know our experience with the cat makes us naturally distrustful of all aliens we've had our own run-ins with the cat then you really do understand when the archon came to helius he demolished our sovereign state took what he wanted as if we were nothing now the cat mercilessly abduct angara often we never see our people again come this way ephra is waiting wait the cat kidnap you steal your people and the resistance fights them every day with everything we can is it attrition what are they after you should save your questions for efra kedara be damned i won't lose fold efra this is one of the aliens from the milky way a pathfinder pathfinder it's an aggressive move coming to ireland it wasn't meant that way i have an ark full of desperate people counting on me to find them a home before they starve of course i feel for you and your people so pathfinder never mind how you even found us why are you here on a hostile planet we call eos i explored an ancient structure a vault and brought it back online it stabilized that planet's environment remnant recent intelligence supports that claim if i'm right there's a vault on i have it's different i need to look inside you're right there's a vault out there but it was shut years ago and the entrance hidden we can't help you the most i could she's our most revered scientist and elder she knows this vault but now the cat have her and our rescue attempts failed she's lost to us and you there must be another way how can i convince you can i offer help arrogant i don't know you let alone trust you why would i want your help of course efra i feel ever what this alien says is extraordinary would want us to be brave and not let this chance pass joel you talk too much let me assess this alien i'll be your eyes i know you can spare me go if you want but when he tries to kill you be prepared to strike first i'm jal ahmad i'll be your envoy through anger in space thank you for trusting me i don't but i can always kill you in your sleep katana [Music] your ship is we have nothing like it where do you see the inside it gets better oh yeah you ready to go i'll introduce you to the rest of my crew i'm just saying as far as first contact goes at least that went better than the last one only slightly yeah what happened i wanted to look around and now we have another mouth to feed whatever he eats did the translators not work they work i know we're improvising as we go but let's remember that there is pathfinder team protocol don't think i got that handbook ryder we followed our best lead here and now we don't even have that joel has offered to do what he can to help us access the vault on ayah how do we do that when we're leaving the planet it's on that's a fair point joel seriously settle down ryder's right there's an angara right here let's hear from the new guy one day about 80 years ago the archon and the quet arrived in helios and the horror began they declared war nothing so easy to define or fight the cat kidnap angara their people disappear without a trace what if they were us sure i'll fight cat all day long but that's no plan i agree we need to get into that vault rider surprisingly i'm with pb our own mission has to take priority we have a plan kind of pretty solid joel the resistance is stretched thin i was tasked with traveling to two of our worlds at our briefing this morning and you'll accompany me because because then ephra will see you as trustworthy you want that jaws told me about these two worlds havarl and vol before the scourge disaster vold was a thriving planet of billions a shining center of technology and life and now it's the center of our ground war against the kent our resistance base is fighting kept command for control of the planet what about the other a vowel is the birthplace of the angara it's started to degrade to become wild and dangerous we suspect remnant now we're talking we've recently lost contact with our scientists still don't get how any of this helps us i do help us or rather help me and i'll vouch for you right because jaw wants inside is vault too pathfinder it's your call don't know yet just be ready to go at a moment's notice got it you bet joel give callu then have points for both planets let's do this so jaw [Applause] so we haven't had a chance to talk alone you comfortable in here i took it it feels strange to stay with the others they are you are aliens and you're alien to us so there we have something in common uh we can look at it as a place to start got it perhaps then if we're all aliens it's about what kind of alien we are you had no idea about us but you signed up to help us anyway perhaps it has nothing to do with you care to elaborate i do not how do you know moshe safa she's our greatest mind on the remnant i was his student you studied the remnant too a little i was terrible i quit or she threw me out one of those we're still very close so is that your rifle it is now it's kept with my own modifications i like to tinker to get my hands on something and take it apart that's a skill i know we can use but i have one request please don't take apart my ship you're right i signed up uh volunteered for this it's exciting there's something unique about you uneasy raw but somehow profound face value that sounds like a compliment a nice one it is angara feel deeply we have more trouble hiding our emotions than showing them i should get back to my work when we have down time i'd love to watch your work sure i could show everyone um no just us so we can get to know each other better or just share a hobby oh of course good good joel what are you doing here in the company of these people kieran this is pathfinder rider from a long way away ryder kieran dals lead scientist at darpa live i am honored to meet you as a representative of the andromeda initiative are all their people this formal i don't think so where's the rest of the team ryder has experience with remnant we might be able to help their investigations you haven't heard while the team was exploring the monolith something went terribly wrong they were caught in some kind of remnant stasis field frozen in place unresponsive are they still alive vitals remain steady and neural patterns resemble those exhibited in deep sleep we subjected them to various stimuli injections of kachari nothing worked let ryder try he's worked the remnant tech inside a vault or so he says ocean of fish one will have gems in its mouth but if you think the alien can help i'll set skepticism aside the monolith is not far from here see what you can do but be careful we don't know what triggered the stasis and it may happen again reading of the monitors and scott scouting stars what who are you how did pathfinder rider with the andromeda initiative i'm from another galaxy take a moment find your bearings more aliens out of nowhere anjal do none of you remember getting frozen frozen i don't understand we were just working on the monolith and then and then you appeared you should return to palette kieran will want to speak to you maybe you're right oh i feel a head splitter coming on we should make sure they return to the station who knows what lingering effects they might suffer from what do you mean grey spiky aliens cats no these were different we were doing a survey of the area and saw them before the fleas you mean turians you saw turians why don't you and torvar talk about that later right now i want to thank you for saving my team you weren't lying kieran told us everything she even had pictures i apologize for the indifferent welcome you received from me earlier don't worry about it you had no reason to trust me the last aliens you met were cat ryder what you have done here your remnant understanding and your sam should convince ephra you're an asset we should speak to him as soon as we can perhaps on the tempest karen i've been thinking if ryder can use remnants couldn't we fix the monoliths stop her vowels decline havarls decline this will take time to explain we can discuss it further when you have time and don't forget to talk to torvar about those what did you call them turians you bypassed that security how is that possible an alien i'm ryder pathfinder with the andromeda initiative from the milky way galaxy that does not explain how or why you are able to operate the remnant doors it doesn't matter you must leave we do not entertain guests here havarls in decline if you tell me about the lost monolith i can help fix it reset the vault with ryder's help harvard could be healed our birthplace restored isn't that worth something it's lost the memories of its location haven't been reclaimed on mithrava we have accepted haval's eventual ruin that's a strange choice of words what do you mean by reclaiming memories one may occasionally remember a past life if the conditions are right what do you mean we believe in reincarnation an unbroken thread there was one long ago who had knowledge of the third monolith so a champion of the angara from before the scourge zorai's soul has returned and could be made to remember what it knew but we have no contact with it so you're saying there's some way we can make people remember their past lives souls retain within families an object heirloom tied closely to that bloodline could cause memories to resurface but it's not guaranteed it has been known to happen on rare occasions in the past with other souls the only known heirloom of zorai's family rests in an area with active remnant no one has survived the journey but perhaps you zorrize saul was reborn in tavos who is now a rocker he recently returned to haval on a mission a roca that'll be difficult that's why you're here joel they won't like that i'm helping you this may be a dead end but we have to try i will send you the relevant coordinates we considered haval a lost cause but perhaps now there is hope commander oh finder joel's been keeping me updated on your adventures your good deeds on our behalf i meant them i want you to know you can trust me you went out of your way to free that science team a selfless act but your true agenda is clear to explore arya's fault joel says you want to help find the most shy why should i let you my personal code is i got this bold a little arrogant like me still i'll reserve jackman for now we've managed to trace the motion to a special cat facility on vault why special these facilities are protected by a dynamic shield tech we haven't been able to crack we're close but its ability to adapt outstrips the speed of our current processes pathfinder adding my processor to that program would no doubt make the difference efra i can help respectfully this time you need my help respectfully the angara don't need anything from you we take care of our own with the processing power of my ai i can guarantee the shield breach ai of course that makes sense he's physically connected to me and so i need to well i want to go it was risky to be honest about your ai and honesty makes you different from the cat i hope so you're welcome on the mission thank you the team will meet you at our base on bold they'll take you to the get facility stay strong and clear goodbye so you've gained efro's trust no easy feat i still don't think he likes me that's just his way you should be more worried about the raw car ever made it seem like you had experience with them i know their leader aksul we studied together under the mochai but unlike me he was a good student the best actually then he knows about remnant he did it's a long story give me the short version aksul was captured by the kit he spent a year in a forced labor camp before he managed to escape that's why he hates aliens yes he suffered greatly when actual returned he no longer cared about the remnant or anything except destroying the cat why not join the resistance axul is not the type to follow orders and i think he was bitter we weren't able to rescue him so he formed the row car we didn't give them much thought but since your people arrived his cause has grown i convinced aphra i'm not a threat maybe i can do the same with axu i admire your courage but actually dangerous and he lacks efra's pragmatism he'll make you want to kill him i have to try if helius is to be your home i guess you'll have to deal with the roka one way or another there's a recluse on havarol who escaped with axuole from the cat her name is thor dear she might know how to contact him i'll send you the nerve point is very cunning we can't underestimate him my mothers are worried sick about the cousins that joined him i want to learn more about your species what would you like to know you studied with moshe sefer is she a teacher or a religious figure she's many things she's a clear thinker with deep knowledge and insight she teaches and inspires she's beloved i love her people are willing to die for her she sounds pretty special she is i hope you get to know her how many colonies do you have on what planets since the scourge we've managed to survive on a small number of planets what we know from before the scourge is mostly oral history we did have space flight and the stories tell of five original colonies the angara seems so open and free with their feelings are we certainly not ashamed of our feelings we're taught that feelings and beliefs should live on the outside where they can be dealt with honestly and openly don't people get hurt of course then everyone deals with it that's the point is there a central angaran religion there are many variations an almanac could give you an accurate number but if you are a believer the essential tenet is after we die we are reincarnated we evolve to make our families strong born from what was before blessed to be better than before are you a believer no yes sometimes i don't know if it's the same for humans sahuna my true mother is a firm believer how long have you had electromagnetic capabilities how did they evolve no idea biology doesn't interest me but i'm sure you can easily read up on it that's disappointing no biology at all how do your eyeballs work okay i get your point maybe i can find an angara doctor to ask about your whatever although i used to know some facts like the origins of our residual organs oh yeah humans have a coccyx a vestigial tail and i have webbed toes just a couple but sarah doesn't and she had wisdom teeth but i didn't now you no idea well enough about that what's your story joel tell me about yourself why well why wouldn't you you hiding something maybe that would only make sense you're messing with me right possibly what does that mean uh it's an idiom means you're joking trying to make me feel uncomfortable ah then no efra instructed me to be cautious i'm not very good at being cautious i'll see you later john stay strong and clear don't come any closer don't touch me you need medical attention it's too late for that i made sure of it your wounds they're self-inflicted they can't i can't go back i won't hush now sister the cat are dead they can't take you we won't let them you sound like him so confident so sure you mean axel he saved me it gave me a chance to live and die on my own terms we need to find him though here he shot a brave one even in the end she was devoted to him and actually using that devotion to spread hate the only other person who could reach him is the motive another reason to rescue her come on let's go you've killed men under my charge and now you'll crown that achievement by killing me too and you i know your face why do you help these murderers ryder is an ally he's already helped the scientists at darpa lev i know and they should be ashamed after all we've been through with the cat tell me why you come here so i know why i've died really can we take the drama down a notch two notches i don't even have a gun up i have an artifact or heirloom or something i'm going to set it down and i need you to take hold of it what and [ __ ] ryder nothing's happening wait there are things like this in the museum on ayah ancient angaran tech this fits over a hand contacts on the inside for my electric control of what did you do to me the third monolith do you know where it is i yes yes but i don't understand how i need you to take me there please if you do this we can save havarl together you you're an alien i can't trust then let me try to earn your trust please deeply surface but but not far meet me here these coordinates will guide you the rest of the way just let me compose myself first pathfinder thank you for arranging my access to the cultural center there's so much to study here it will take a lifetime there's thousands of years of history before humans even arrive on the scene that would be a nice full-time job but you've already got one is there something else a few more questions if that's okay [Music] we won't know should we try can you tell me more about the cat occupation it's a difficult subject i'll answer what i can i may get emotional have the cat always been here no some like the moshai are old enough to remember the time before they get but i don't nor do my mothers and the archon came with them we think so resistance intel on that is unclear and few have seen him in person and lived to tell and lived to tell when the cat came why didn't you fight they didn't give us a reason to until they did then it was too late perhaps you think we were weak but the cat are ruthless they are masters at knowing exactly when and how to strike i get that believe me what's living under the cap bin like for you do you really want to hear about these things they're painful i asked didn't i it's like living on unstable ground every day brings more horrible news i part company with someone not knowing if i'll ever see them again when i was a boy my father vanished from my life one horrible day was he in the resistance no he was a technician at a mine he went to work and didn't come home that happens for an anger child somewhere every single day well enough about that i'll see you later joel stay strong and clear [Applause] so no one has ever seen the inside of one of these places really none who lived to tell prisoners who go in are never seen again they have disappeared and the angara slaves what about them sure we've liberated cat work camps but never these facilities we lost so many fighters trying the price was too high i like to believe that the cat take important angara from here to their home cluster what as slaves i guess death is better life without freedom is just pointless what you guys are going through is a nightmare it's why we're excited to be part of this mission we're here and let's be quick this storm's getting worse once we're through the shield you take point we'll look for moshe zepha let's just try to stay safe okay but pathfinder no one joins the resistance to stay safe good luck radio me when you're ready to go huddle up if we were a surprise i doubt we're one anymore you have the best chance of finding motion suffer we'll attack head-on and provide a distraction good plan this is going to be fun this is the main entrance we'll go this way kick in the front door stay in radio contact and good luck what what is this [Music] fortunate welcome step forward i am humbled before you you who are the chosen chosen by the archon chosen to be exalted what why aren't they resisting that's some crazy cult [ __ ] down there those angara look like they're in some sort of trance i know them she's not down there but maybe in one of those pods it's as good a lead as any you wanted a distraction we just set our plan on fire [Music] impossible [Music] no it awaits final exaltation then proceed immediately and bring it to me final examination what's final what are they doing we have to save all the ankara we came here for the most shy she's our first priority your priority my ship my team my priorities decontamination proto get down sam can you do anything about this yet working on it i said [Music] [Music] um [Music] [Music] [Music] joel [Music] they are us [Music] i'll keep scanning for the motion she's got to be here somewhere we'd better find her fast [Music] to hear us yeah how many have i killed not knowing right ahead i did not know how can i help what do you need that is kind i don't know well then let's start by finding the moshai if anyone can figure out what this means for the angara i'm guessing it's her you're probably right ryder joel i got her she's here sam get me into that room now contamination bypass i was able to access the facility plans at the last terminal a best guess would be the shuttle launch area above i gotcha we're getting you out of here no one has ever returned from behind ket walls well i don't know the rules yet anyway this place is on alert we have to get out of here now i'm not the only one here they took the entire cell vitals are bad the immune system's been decimated you will not take it it is meant for the archon himself [Music] she's coming with us wait i want to know why the archon arrogant simpletons this is a gift who are you to deny it you turn them in the monsters that fight their own people these chosen join with us to become great beyond your ability to understand like them i was once wretched and the exalted dna of our great archon entwines with mine i stand on the shoulders of his greatness as they do as one day you will except i am gonna [ __ ] your [ __ ] up how's that for great pathfinder i am tracking multiple inbound cat cruisers you will all be exalted sam is there an off switch to this horror palace i've accessed the em field i can overload your command we must get all our people out first there's no time to open hundreds of pods let alone help the angara inside wait leave my sacred temple intact and i will open the pots of the chosen take them just leave this holy place standing no even if i die here this place must be destroyed we can come back to destroy it let's free these here now if your plan fails the cat will simply fill this place again with respect our compatriots are also here our fighters our scientists our strength sam prepare to overload the em shield but wait for my go no all the kids will suffer the same fate until my people are free we have them outside heading to the roof for extraction i'm sorry we fought what we saw will set our cause on fire yes my broken heart can't even process it lexi can you give us a minute sure thing but go gentle she's in a fragile state did she just call me frail fragile jal says you're a pathfinder from the milky way do you feel up for talk of course you earned my trust with your brave decision back there our decisions come with the territory so the facility what's the purpose of all that they call it exaltation they believe that those they exalt are given a great gift gift they snatch us defile and shatter us all the ones we love i i i can't it's a complex genetic construct an interchange of traits that the quet used to advance their species so they steal jeans but why reproduction domination tyranny annihilation yes and yet the archon didn't take me to his ship to transform me i hung immobile tormented never sleeping brought to him on a whim he showed me remnant tech and beat me when i wouldn't speak oh no remnant of course he's obsessed like you are yes jal told me you rescued me hoping to get into aya's vault my people have traveled so far we'll die without a place to settle these remnant vaults may be the key a key to help both our species prosper i hear your plea like you heard mine but emotion must never get in the way of science i'll take you thank you yes thank you surfer i'm happy to answer any other questions for you pathfinder anytime [Music] stars and skies light our way stars and skies light our way she knows how to play to a crowd she's the most high [Applause] welcome home i never thought i'd see it again without the resistance and the pathfinder i wouldn't be here we made a good team the pathfinder destroyed the enemy's fortress but thousands of us died in chains we have a lot to talk about i promise to lead the pathfinder to is vault you're still recovering take your time i'm not going anywhere not without our help i'll prepare the vault for your arrival a shuttle will bring you to me when it's ready thank you moshe we've been alone against the cat for too long you've proven it doesn't have to be that way it's time we discussed an alliance between our people might want to ask your resistance leader how he feels if i don't like where the discussion goes i'll end it agreed we'll provide an embassy for the initiative here on ayah we'll make room for you on the nexus our city is open to you join us well done joel report for reassignment i need to stay with the pathfinder joel has already become a valued member of my crew of course he has i see the benefit request granted i need to file a mission report don't leave aya without me ryder take a break and enjoy the view with me well what do you think i could get used to this we take turns living here you can see why you're relaxed here there's a sparkle in your eye i am thank you it's nice of you to notice you're interesting i like to notice joel not talking to me i get it i can't imagine how you're feeling i'll just go don't you saved the mortuary i won't forget that that's why we were there saving her was a great thing it will be anyway i really miss my family at times like these are you close to your family you talk about family a lot really i guess it's just part of our culture our families are large and we share our parents with the community we all have many mothers my family's small and are you close my family is complicated isn't much to say about it okay this random collection of tempest oddballs can feel like family sometimes yeah i never really felt i had a purpose but here i do what about the resistance my place in the resistance is not what i'd like but that kid on aya looked up to you sure but you are going to do something important ryder i feel it this is where i should be i like having you around specifically you because of my skill and knowledge not really because you enjoy spending time with me as much as i do with you you do you're fascinating so bold yet mysterious so odd that's thanks and i mean it oh ryder sorry for the mess who's your friend an exalted cat i called jal to show him oh there he is joel look at this there's nothing angara inside the physical can be deceiving i've run hundreds of tests only traces of the angara genome remain the exalted are kept there must be a way to fix them we need to be prepared that there might not be joe remember what we talked about that we should examine the problem objectively excuse me grief is never easy but joel needs to accept that exaltation is permanent hope is good but false hope is unhealthy i appreciate your support jarl is part of this crew his welfare is my responsibility i know this job was a surprise but you've really stepped up and look you got your cat sample their bodies are unlike anything i've seen centuries of gene stealing crafted evolution it's horrible of course but also fascinating glad you're settling in sink or swim right i should probably clean this up before it starts to smell liam i signed off on that project that's great pathfinder jalal maldarov we got our gear costa rider i'll bite what's with the gun show we're swapping armor not weapons don't let him tease you i explain the reference you ready to go go right the pattern on your pauldron family honorific can i wear the poncho it's erotine and no why is it religious what it's personal you're not allowed because of status or species maybe it's both do all humans look alike some of you sound alike whoa whoa whoa i know how this goes someone's getting offended and someone else punched that's why we're doing it here it's an armor swap for answers stop the diplomats don't ask my ten was earlier nexus info packets leave a lot out i am sorry was this not sanctioned yeah you weaseling adi nevertheless ryder joel's technically an emissary there's no way this kind of questioning would fly with his superiors he won't tell if that's what you're worried about this was between us we were joking around and realized we didn't know how to insult each other or how not to some things are so ingrained they're invisible we didn't even know the warning signs so we got it over with now we won't do it accidentally like when we're trying to negotiate an outpost enough of his people want to shoot us now let's just back away from this leave it to the professionals ah if you like joel doesn't care but he wouldn't want his bosses getting tired about it either do you know our team will get hit by this stuff one way or another you ask me better over beers and guns ryder i just read the most fascinating histories about the conflict between the geth and their quarian creators i feel like the angara and the quarians have so much in common really how we are both displaced struggling against cruel enemies to save our home worlds but the quet just showed up here that's not your fault the quarians created the geth home is home when home is not safe the heart is sick from yearning i'm uncomfortable here i'm trying to be cheerful but i'm not doing a good job hey keep your voice down why i am not ashamed of my feelings hey joel didn't mean to scare you what ah i'm i'm not scared one second what's going on in here you look busy if i'm busy my mind is occupied with whatever i'm working on uh rather than worrying i can see how that helped uh i'd like your advice on something i'm making gifts for everyone i have a list gifts do turians like poetry for vetra i'm writing a poem and engraving it on well i'm not sure yet who doesn't like a personalized poem ah great maybe i could just recite it for her make sure i'm there for that liam seems to like my roth gin i might sew him one he does do krogen like knives i could craft a ceremonial anger and dagger for drac i'm trying to keep his dagger count down he can be a little stab happy hmm right i've noticed hmm who else could i give a dagger to then joel this is a lot of work what's really going on i'm sure that i seem confident and skilled to you but i'm not or i don't feel like i am well i think you're great that's so it's true you're making me blush i can't tell my family is well known our lineage is respected and many of my kin have achieved great things i've never been one of them so many older siblings and cousins who succeeded at everything i stopped trying to keep up right thanks for listening you're not in anyone's shadow here i believe in you is the adventure what you hoped are they kind i worry yes my mother and more you would enjoy it too [Music] thank you for making sure that the squad behaves while on ayah i don't tell them what to do on their own time that's not how paran sees it i predict jail in your future thanks for coming knew you'd be up for it i need answers you said there were hostiles inbound we have soldiers we've handled a raid or two without a sweat but this is bigger four five repeat stockpile complete waiting for beacon launch on detection repeat one two three [Music] what am i hearing bradley here's my worry maybe the raids we've seen were just a decoy so someone could do a slow tactical build up in the black rock tactical you mean military no that was an unguarded voice he means rokha that's why he called us even with our defenses imagine how the nexus would respond to an assault on our first outpost exactly the response axull wants i'm sure we can check it out without drawing too much attention you're the person for the job i hope i'm wrong pathfinder i didn't want to bring this kind of thinking to andromeda head to blackrock hand i'll transmit the nav point for the signal y'all are we clear we are clear and we still have bradley's signal right let's see what they were protecting this worries me are not pirates this signal can call drop ships to a precise location telling axel exactly where to strike bradley blackrock scout with a holy beacon [ __ ] glad you put an end to that i'm not walking away this is my house not sure what you're asking pathfinder we can't risk our first outpost promise and resilience what are you planning if they want to attack an outpost we'll use their beacon and let them then finish the job the camarade site too is still intact you could broadcast from there everyone get that row car welcoming party at site 2. starting signal upload are they heading toward us the road car have altered course now might be a good time to take cover human i told you you'd know soon enough the beacon is live you couldn't stop our scouts they've bought it hold until they're on the ground i can wait for this this site is a decoy rally into these coordinates rogers where are they going i'll tell you site one we overcharge the power relay to draw them in to be happy about that promise here we go sounds like they're losing their support we've got targets that's the last of them we did it ryder pathfinder axel's shuttle is leaving orbit i'll remember this we're not finished you are today and we'll be ready next time come to padromo's pathfinder we owe you again joel i'm in the meeting room right behind you ryder pulling up the message you always were a short-sighted fool helping an outsider instead of your own people you're unfit to bear your family's name i didn't mean to make my enemies yours he said similar things before when we were students the moschai paired us together we've never gotten along he's just jealous of what you're the better man well i am better looking aksul wants us to do something reckless let's not give him the satisfaction you more than anyone know how dangerous axel is why were they allowed to speak with him they aren't children anymore we can't control their every move you remember how you were please jal i'll bring them home this is obviously a bad time no please stay my being alone won't help anything three of my brothers and sisters have joined the roka aksul has poisoned them with his hatred of aliens and your mothers want you to bring them back the roca have made camp at the forge many consider it the birthplace of our civilization aksul likely believes this bold move will create more fanatics for his cause ryder he has my family but i don't think i can do this alone i'm not in gara won't that make things worse the only humans my siblings have met are exiles outlaws and pirates they don't know how wonderful your people can be but you can show them i have a contact who's been monitoring the raw car i'll set up a rendezvous with her any word on davinci and the others no all traffic and communication from the forge have stopped it's under arc sewell's control now well crap we're not fighting the whole army we just need to find my family my shuttle can drop you nearby but that's about all i can do ephrath doesn't want to make enemies of the row car unless we have to we'll keep your low profile afka says you need a ride to the forge be quiet the better i'm a miracle worker but i'll do my best you ready let's do this joel you sure you want me here bringing an outsider will give the roca a different perspective just follow my lead we'll get my family back oh you said you got them all i did be myself alien kill it hope no one heard that they shot first we had to defend ourselves there's a bridge to the ruins beyond those doors my family should be there how are we gonna get to them now we'll have to jump down it's beautiful i i always hoped to bring you here just not in these circumstances intruders have reached the nest i count three wait i know those wishes last two go for becca let's go wait stop it's ciao is that you [Laughter] [Music] our mother sent me all of them did our mother send this human too i'm ryder pathfinder with the initiative i should kill you right now tevint please what'd they send you because we've lost enough to the kid they're afraid to lose you to this insane cause but john i want you to meet my friend scott so you can see that axon is wrong we need to work together against the cat we're here to stay i want to get along who cares the angara don't want anything you have i don't need you ciao our mothers want us to live truth it's because i love my mother that i will die for this school is going to blow this place that's cool that's why i sent the researchers away stop he has problems talking stolen from your people those bombs go off it'll look like the initiative did it we have to disarm them the bombs in the forge i'm okay jack i'll be fine if he pins this explosion on the initiative this gets bad really really bad i hate actually don't let him win you got it i'm glad you're here i killed a thought i killed him i'm so sorry he's not dead you are lucky i lost my mind i want to go home but the cause i joined because of you i shot our brother don't leave let her go i only want soldiers who are committed to our cause not weaklings who stand by and watch the destruction of our people at the hands of aliens blowing up your sacred birthplace seems pretty drastic your cause is falling apart like you i speak for our people and i say you're done your penis [Laughter] martyr me please i dare you i don't kill unarmed crazy people they move on to our planets they take our resources make us weak i've watched ryder make planets habitable exactly and they'll never let us forget he rescued your beloved moscow i know saved hair life i know stop defending them the mush i trust rider ends up we've been fighting the wrong enemy maybe the enemy is this traitor easy job don't the moshai trusts ryder you've become a danger to your own people walk away or i kill you and reveal the resistance for the traitors they are [Music] so [Music] the alien is not the monster here i love my people come on let's get you home you okay yeah thanks i'm so sorry i never couldn't even kill me at short range they are here let's give them a minute thank you for trusting me killing axul would have made the roka stronger he shot you i'm glad he did it exposed how far he'd fallen i was really worried it will heal all scars do we should get back i want to say goodbye before my family heads home [Music] do all humans whimper in their sleep or just you hey hello my special friend how's the face wound i think my scar will be impressive a centimeter to the right and well let's not think about it axul was always a terrible shot well [ __ ] wouldn't have worried so much if you told me that before can you stay and talk some more can i ask you a few more questions of course if i can answer them i will can you tell me about your family uh assuming you have one sit down this will take time is someone bringing us snacks and drinks whoa your family's that big i have one true mother sahuna and more than five additional mothers and many many many siblings and cousins all raised together our families constantly change and evolve relationships come and they go my father is gone taken or killed by the kit we never found his body my dad died on her first mission here i didn't know him as well as i could have i guess i think i was close to mine yet maybe close has a different meaning for humans something to learn i guess anything else you want to ask do angara plan their futures do you dream about what you want to accomplish you put plan and dream in the same question uh yeah oh i see you meant to do that angara thirst for now we don't strive to make the future better we strive because the present is lacking did you always want to be a fighter did you study anything particular in school i no i don't like to talk about it but i'm not a fighter not really the cat occupation creates chaos so our education is chaotic i'm not really anything but that's an excuse the truth is i don't know what i want yet for my life at my age i hope being here will inspire me well enough about that do you have a mate a partner i don't not for a long time not for a long time i fell in love with a girl once aliyah we were young i was young it was my first vasal on aya we worked on the same farm she was a little older a researcher i can still hear her laugh and see her eyes she kissed me and i was thrilled and seduced but it didn't work out my older brother came to ayah he was already famous in the resistance where's aliyah now did she and your brother work out they came back to haval and she joined our family she became one of the mothers you have to see her every day no they were taken by the kit their children survived well enough about that i'll see you later john stay strong and clear ryder what a victory now that we know where meridian is the archon's downfall begins let's not celebrate just yet this is just anticipation you won't believe what celebration looks like let it out angara believe that burying your feelings is a broken way to live interesting i'll think about that i'm free to talk more now or later i'll see you later joe stay strong and clear wait is there bad news no no the pathfinder is interested in where i grew up ryder this is my true mother a mother nice to meet you i know anger liked the hugging charles told me how much he admires you really he's my favorite smart loyal kind a great shot writes poetry souls mother i'm late for a resistance meeting stay clear your mother's in the resistance yes and every child is her favorite everyone this is scott hi look who the car can drag welcome back this is where i spent most of my days growing up me my sister guana our cousin etta and brother finn then babe zil rory wonderful a human joel you bring in someone special to meet us wow cozy we like to live like this gonna give your friends some real food good to see you and here's my room my tiny sanctuary you must dream of a big place of your own sometimes maybe doesn't matter this will always be my home oh no who put this here schematics of when i was seven my aunt stole a cat weapon for me so i took it apart to learn and that is was a carkin pet cockin outfit he died so i also took him apart to learn why not i don't show people these things you make my art scene i want us to be together yeah i'd like that yes [Laughter] i adore you ah let me show you one more thing you might like lie down okay sure beautiful you made that long ago it's not accurate more of a dream really just one more thing i want to take apart and figure out [Music] ah joel and now i have someone to do it with my mother is going to love you i'm sorry [Music] what am i needed for anything or can i continue to stand here and imagine taking a scourge bath scourge bath it'd be an improvement liam's idea about watching vids together movie night he delayed again out of respect for reika good from what i've seen your vids are flat they're only seen ahead angaravids use tiny electro demo signals you feel it through your skin i spoke to gil we have time to rig up a system to mimic it if we can acquire the right components that sounds amazing let's do it the components we need should be sold on ayah let's be vigilant joel i need you to open up your mind about kedara the milky way aliens are criminals who fight each other and the angara are traitors which should i open up [Applause] you were right ryder now that the political conflict is resolved kedara port is growing on me growing like the searing pain of an infected fresh wound bring your alien friends to see me soon promise as soon as i can go so how are the pups doing i released three that refused to be trained but the other two are doing very well i caught liam on the bridge the other day teaching suvi and callow an old angaran folk song at least that's what i told him it was okay don't fret the marriage can be dissolved by a different song i'll try to remember it ah you acquired the components yes i'm looking forward to seeing what you and gill put together he's very gifted if when we succeed more of your people can experience our stories as they are meant to be enjoyed goda tavitara the lulia reborn trilogy i'm weeping a bit already please have a look around how's the cultural study going joel read up on the elkhorn hamlet yet we hope you'll enjoy learning yes i think the performance certainly elevated this source material did you know that pb's father was an alcohol initiating ghost storm on my mark three two go enemy signature detected [Music] we should get them as close as possible to here intense readings could be some kind of control center no decent landing sites this could get messy how messy ryder looks like a flyby is our only option i'll get as low as possible but you'll have to eject over the target area i've fallen out of so many things now i should be a pro i heard about your free fall to habitat seven liam said he could hear you screaming the whole way down keep your butt in this go around huh it's embarrassing all right you know the drill what's your rate of descent shields should take care of the rest so far so good the cat haven't detected us but once we go in we'll be clear as day to any troops on the ground the tempest can take some shots if it has to some not many pathfinder we are looking at the central command hub i detected earlier as with the monoliths and vaults the hub is connected to the two neighboring towers so activating the towers will also activate the command hub changing plan i say we activate meridian now forgetting about the ket activating the volt has previously activated a purification field perhaps meridian is similar let's head to those towers and see what we can find [Music] what the hell translating pattern 1 3 viability 56.2 genetic template transmitted for testing they were doing things to the ankara looks like they were running experiments of some kind we have to save them get them out somehow jal pathfinder they cannot be saved what i have analyzed the glyphs these are not the angara we know they are not even alive i don't understand they look so the remnant language refers to these bodies as genetic templates a blueprint [Music] like the plans we saw the angara we came from here they created us why does it matter why where you came from doesn't change who you are true and we still face the same conflicts i just feel as though something has shifted i need to think i need to speak with the most i meridian creates life and the archon could use it to do the opposite destroy everything it's up to us to make sure that doesn't happen provisional repairs are complete pathfinder only one way to know for sure [Music] translating flight control systems online welcome administrator i don't like this we should get out of here restoring the systems appears to have reactivated something else nearby i can see that sam and i don't think it's good [Music] translating exploration vessels on standby we have seen remnant ships but not in working condition it says it cannot retrieve commands from the meridian engine meridian engine sam do you know what they're going to be trouble [Music] translating connection lost meridian engine not found sam is there damage here can we restore systems like we did before i'm sorry pathfinder systems are intact but they are searching for a component that doesn't appear to exist what do you mean doesn't appear to exist one moment pathfinder i have found something here translating final administrator log the opposition's weapon may cause widespread damage all our weapons our ships will not be able to protect us protect my goal we need to disengage meridian from command corn which will remain here to draw fire meridian contains all the work of the jar down nothing else matters i will send it far we can return one day continue the process of renewal end of long the archon was wrong this isn't meridian meridian is gone there must be some way to record it they're going to bring the tower down get ready we're getting out of here sam find me another exit away from the cat there is no other exit pathfinder however the remnant city is not without defenses and this is its central command remnant defenses of course use them against the cat sam now so the archon wants that one destroy the rest ground team is everyone all right everyone accounted for we saw everything from orbit it was incredible the entire city lit up the scans went wild and ryder the cat are retreating whatever you did it worked a full retreat that's a relief to hear any progress on meridian have you got it working yet this isn't meridian or at least not all of it hard to explain we'll brief you later so meridian's gone but shouldn't this thing know the nav point of where it went contact with the scourge will have altered meridian's original path it would take countless years to determine its current location all this remnant tech around us the jardin had to have a plan if they had a plan i doubt we'd be seeing this much scourge damage well if the scourge is messing things up maybe that's where we should look what do you mean i don't know yet we'll have to think about it hey at least we took the city back from the quet that's a big win that just means we need to push forward before they can recover we have to find meridian the real one sam collect all the data you can radio the tempest for extraction this is going to take work and it's going to take all of us hello scott have you come to see if i'm finally broken to see what discovering that my people were invented has done to me just hear if you need to talk i can't imagine what you're feeling i've been staring out the window trying to figure that out that's new true mengara are usually very free with our feelings not talking about all angara i'm talking about you i'm numb i'm in awe there's a peace in knowing that though the universe is beyond your understanding it doesn't need your understanding to function that you may even have a hidden destiny does it matter your people aren't shackled to this new discovery i agree we don't owe anything to the jardan our destiny is our own i'm not broken ryder i'm excited the angara were created for a purpose we were given vaults and golden worlds all these advanced tools and there is nothing the cat can do about it the future holds more for the angara than a never-ending war on the cat much more i really love that you can be so open and vulnerable with me thank you you make me feel safe it doesn't matter if we were created by a god reborn from our ancestors or exist as the dream of an ai superpower this discovery changes nothing except ourselves and that's everything it's my night off just checking in what are you reading harry's latest report on sarah she's restless but on the mend so you're not really taking the night off work-life balance has never been my strong suit you love what you do nothing wrong with that tell that to my exes how do you do it be both scot and the pathfinder work is work life is life i try not to mix the two what about joel well there are exceptions to every rule of course doesn't matter i have exciting news and i wanted to tell you in person should i sit down is that another idiom or yes of course do what you like yeah it's an idiom that means never mind i've been offered an advancement in the resistance and my own command that's great i'm happy for you but you don't sound uh another idiom kinda so when did this happen recently you know that i wasn't satisfied with my position and direction in the resistance or life true very true yes after my successes with you they see me with new eyes but more importantly so do i so you get your own command it's a covert squad tech ops commanding a small group of elite specialists that infiltrate advanced catch sights high danger high reward would you consider turning it down we've come to rely on you around here some of us even like you i know a lot some of us like you a whole lot me too okay then should we head back to aya why i'm not taking the position but that's crazy it's what you wanted what i wanted is but not what i needed not what i need with your help i broke free of expectation i found my better self that's one of the nicest things anyone has said to me seriously good no really you've changed too i think more open like a true angara perfect so you're stuck with me now at least until this all plays out besides you need me don't push your luck but luck can't be pushed it comes to us and ah idiom yep [ __ ] wherever we are it smells like heaven heaven maybe it is take a look how is this place not packed with people right now i have my ways trust me we won't be disturbed hey thanks you're amazing [Music] beautiful i may never leave this is my favorite place in the universe where's yours haven't found it it's out there somewhere yeah i get that but you're right this place is special and now with you here it's perfect beyond all reason i've fallen in love with you and i want do you want to yeah i'd like that come with me into the water oh okay yep y'all you are the most incredible person i have ever known to be near you is thrilling wherever you go take me with you i love you too joel hmm how do you think the crew is holding up i'm happy to share what i can without violating patient confidentiality anyone in particular i sort them in their files and my brain by species is joel doing okay he told me about you and him this might be crossing a line but could you give me details you know for science well sure if joel's okay with it i think he will be since it's for science of course purely clinical we'll have sam send you the details this could have amazing settlement implications are you finding enough answers here or only questions so many questions lately i've been looking at vids of earth it's a beautiful planet and your cities look remarkable london singapore vancouver how do you feel now about leaving it behind for it was hard and still is sometimes i like to look at the vids too i'm glad we have them i saw a big ben as a kid once and i can still show it to my kids one day that's a nice thought everything looks right pathfinder find the override apply that hardware and the remnant will fly the same vector as meridian and all our work together will pay off ready it's a lot to process but we earned it this is for us let's do it tempest we're going in [Music] quiet so far but something's different orbital scouts identified a separate energy grid within the tower meaning defenses here may not be on our side sam everything ready all relevant data is cute for uplink right let's find a path [Music] when their ships have lifted off they're following the override vector data's strange it's saying it's hollow a self-contained seed world it is the heart of the vault network and when reactivated every connected planet will be affected it is the means to make helius a home pathfinder this is what we've worked and fought for and it's only the start congratulations pathfinder a great day for us all what's going rival on you are a false thing a lie once i saw what made you special your connection i knew how and when to take it from me let you find meridian and now i'll use your sam to agonize it all hideous will be exalted all one by one your worlds will die starting with eos all i need to start is an implant like yours and thanks to your memories i know who else has one another reason to take the hyperion [Music] garbage tempest the pathfinder is down come in ryder but you were dead the hyperion's dark same with it we need to get back wait no no no that door is remnant you need sam we need to get back so painful your bravery is inspiring we need to get back [Music] i can do this damn you sure you can keep going to the tempest we have to move [Music] ryder there you are you need to stop doing this nice to see you too news on the ark still headed to meridian with a small flotilla you got the last signal before the archon locked it down we're not letting that stand be ready to move wait we need a plan stop ship kill jerk with what he has sam he has ships but i am still able to do something he's got the hyperion that's how many thousand hostages how many worlds does he destroy if we don't move and how many do we save if we get ourselves killed well we have to do something right i know but the tempest is one ship and she isn't even armed [Music] foreign you did an impossible thing can you keep that up have them fight for us [Music] cat are tough but remnant hit hard the promise of that could inspire others to join in across the cluster we have a for real shot of this rally the troops for a last stand i just pulled the front line out of thin air with all our friends supporting that we can beat the archon it'll be enough we have to try is this where i give a speech ask you to die for me no thanks i say we shove the remnant down the arkhan's throat and maybe that buys us a chance all of us we get the whole cluster to pile on everyone in helios has earned some [ __ ] payback here you are your speech rivaled anything i've heard ephra give and speaking of him he sent a list of all the preparations the resistance has made you seem so confident and calm in spite of what's on the line my heart hurts for your burden i'm excited and terrified and angry and i just don't know joel you are the light that we all follow that i follow it's a lot to live up to but yeah i'm gonna do this [Music] yes you are this is unsettling our home's parked in the surface we can't stop now in for a penny i guess look at all this it's amazing [Music] touchdown and ahead already in control a long time coming ready pathfinder it's a gateway to everything we've been chasing never been more ready yes i feel it [Music] it arrives this attempt to rival me is no longer amusing pathfinder hey scott get my clues pretty clear path sarah he was distracted likes the sound of his own voice so determined but so pointless your connection serves me i know how it works the mind is trained to think like the remnant creatures in this case painfully but i'm content to let her bear that burden whatever gives me my video i will transcend what you pretend to be you're out of time i've matched you every step you've failed arkhan you're the pretender you learn by accident i am the genetic inheritor of a thousand species [Music] no more mercy kill them all no no no he's [ __ ] he has access [Music] i made the cluster livable for met your thousands to their deaths [Music] oh scott the archon's pulling too much power a little busy it's all going straight through him shut down the interfaces he'll have nothing to draw you'll take meridian out from under him we play this smart i know it hurts but you have to call out where to interface get me targets everyone get that we're shutting the archon down [Music] yes online [Music] so [Music] [Music] [Music] sam is broadcasting the victory across the cluster aya is celebrating too you did it no we did it you are amazing [Music] [Music] [Music] we made it my darling one [Laughter] joel your affections are so loud sometimes yeah yours can be too right ah i think you're blushing [Laughter] you accomplished the inconceivable i'm grateful to be part of it no i'm grateful i couldn't have asked for a better team we created this together and exactly what it is what it may become i can't even imagine to think that when we met the angara and your initiative struggled to find trust the way we arrived on ayah was over the top you know uninvited and on fire agreed i guess it worked out okay writer the angara will never forget how you saved them but more than that we'll never forget how you fought the cat beside us how we destroyed the archon meridian is a new beginning for your people and mine together what i care about most though is our new beginning one day my love we'll have a place of our own and i'll hold you close looking out over a beautiful world that we created so so so isn't this the best time to be alive yeah i've decided it is or the best time to be awake as the case may be no awake and alive because if you weren't here you'd be dead best time to be alive yeah though i don't know how we topped this feeling for now maybe we don't have to i'll see you later joel stay strong darling one they need you jorax i know you left the legion i never left the legion it left me but i know my duty all right folks we can sit through a training montage with what many critics describe as excessive turian flexing no such thing there really is or we can fast forward to a ship crashing into an asteroid crashing into a moon let's point to the crash ah montage don't cut bits i'd go for the crash forwarding to the action scene going once going twice skip to the good stuff liam boo but it's vacuum the ship explosion would be silent i hope that's not the voice of experience talking i guess they wanted their money's worth they actually blew up with dereck for that shot too bad the script wasn't caught in the blast my strike team will hit the enemy cruiser general force is the only thing fanatics understand why a strike team torpedo the cruiser that's overkill get one engineer aboard cut life support and engines problem solved and leave them stuck on a hostile ship one torpedo over by lunch i think a charm offensive might be more rewarding yes classic irresistible hero pretend to be captured enticing stars soulful eyes yeah yeah the old dinner and drinks to show off my villainy they get caught in strike or not why spoil the evening speaking of time for another round anyone for a vera's jaw or a euphemistically delicious wait lesson [Music] ugh he was a sidekick they die like goldfish no acting like overacting even ryder could do better if i wanted to [Music] oh yes please come on show us i'll be dead for you okay [Music] it it isn't fair he was so young and [Music] solarian he had so much to give a writer i can't feel my i can't feel my gallbladder do you even have a gallbladder oh no it's worse than i thought [Music] no damn you damn you all [Music] let's stick with the overacting turian [Applause] i swear to love you a thousand times a thousand stars oh jorax so many years lost we were so foolish our hearts are won no enemy fleet no sea of stars can ever separate us again [Music] [Applause] [Music] you
