[Speaking to Ensign Sinopolo] Thank you, sailor, for coming back to the fight. Though I don't understand how you did it, your command deck was sheared clean off.
ESEnsign Sinopolo
We didn't exactly get the KC get in ship-shape ourselves, we had help.
CCaptain Carrino
From who?
ESEnsign Sinopolo
[Hesitant] James Holden
CDChief Durant
The taker, who blamed us for blowing up the Canterbury and then got the Donnie killed...
ESEnsign Sinopolo
The Rocinante ... I mean the Tachi came upon the KC...
CDChief Durant
They just fixed up your boat and sent you on your way...
ESEnsign Sinopolo
We tried to take the ship by force, but we were unsuccessful. There was a martian marine on board, Gunnery Sergeant Roberta Draper...
CDChief Durant
The defector
ESEnsign Sinopolo
...as well as UN deputy undersecretary Chrisjen Avasarala, she was there, too.
We have two fleets bearing down on each other - 74 ships, thousands and thousands of lives, and the only thing we're likely to accomplish is annihilating each other.
11st Officer
That video doesn't change that...
CCaptain Carrino
War is an inherently unstable interaction with three things: Intense emotion, politics and luck. That message is luck. Maybe out here, away from all the politics and bullshit, luck opens the door and lets a couple of grunts figure out how not to fight, for once.
He doesn't care about treason. That's just him parroting you because you talked to him last. If he spoke to a janitor, he'd be passionately declaiming about a fucking mop! It's agonizing! I've lost count of how many times I've stopped him from blundering into political suicide, and now we have a chance to assure the future of the earth, and he's shitting himself because he's afraid the history books won't be flattering enough!
Just need to talk to Dr. Strickland for a minute... [Facing Dr. Strickland]
SDr. Strickland
I looked out for her, I protected her, even if I could have been shot for it. I saved Mae's life! She would have died without me, right there on Ganymede, but I've been back for her, and I've got her out!
SDr. Strickland
Prax, I've known Mae since she was a baby. She loves me, and I love her. Please, I'm begging you, please...
Of course we do, but that asshole on the bridge was right - they may not get them all, and it'll only take a few. I think I have a better idea. Jim, Amos!
Yeah. We couldn't reroute all the pods, but we were able to turn their transponders back on. Mars can target them now, but we're worried that they may not get them all.
I know. There's a way that we can shoot all the pods down before they reach Mars: Fred Johnson! He has the missiles he stole from earth, he can destroy those pods.
My fellow citizens. Our fate as a nation has been sorely tested. But the arrest of the traitor, Errinwright, and the resignation of Secretary-General, Sorrento-Gillis, whom we thank for his service, has given us the opportunity to choose a new future. Many fought for us to get here. Many died. We have lost people we loved, and have suffered. We would be justified to seek vengeance. But instead, we will choose peace We must choose peace. For we have arrived at the dawn of a new era, and are witness to an event unlike anything else in the history of our species. But peace is a fragile thing. So I'm asking you to join me and join hands with our brothers and sisters throughout the system Earth, Mars, and the Belt And dedicate ourselves to being one people with a shared purpose. And as we have always done in the past, we will face the unknown together.
Jules-Pierre Mao's project wreaked havoc throughout the system. The Protomolecule killed so many, brought Earth and Mars to the brink of annihilation, You had a major effect on those events. And that led you to this: the Ring. How does that make you feel?
No - no, that one looks different. See, the probe maintained the speed limit and then touched the other side of that bubble and then something happened to it, like, uhm, blinked out of existence...
Yeah, that's a good safety tip. [clears his throat] So, we return and the MCRN catches us and we go straight and we're gonna reach the other side of that bubble.
Well, I was thinking, since the comms are down, the only way to communicate is in person. Mars isn't looking to arrest them for stealing the ship so ... [Gesturing to Monica] You too, put your lid on! I was just gonna send the camera guy, but with the vac suit gloves on ... you know how when he ... [gestures like the camera man] ... I mean, the man is blind... [opens the outer door to the airlock] It's time to go!
"Oh, so you want to talk about the non-local quantum hologram, the phase-conjugate adaptive waves resonating in micro-tubules in the brain, which of course require some closed timeline curves and Lorentzian manifold, and…You catch up, I’ll wait"
