Let's check out the lower deck.
Looks like we have him.
He must be in this duct.
Ok... you go in here.
I'll come from the other side.
We'll kick his ass.
Once he notices that I'm front of him, he'll have to turn around.
When you see him, you shoot.
Boom, over and done.
That bastard... he killed Yoshida and Lacroix.
Don't forget that.
...blow...up...
Everything grows again like it used to.
We've been lied to from the very beginning.
These plants here...
they're edible.
The greenhouses keep out the acid rain.
We purify our own water in the underground tanks.
We're completely independent from the system.
And we continue to grow stronger.
More people join us every day.
Freeze!
Laura... Thank god, you're alive.
Calm down.
Where the hell were you?
We have everything under control.
We got him.
Did you shoot?
Who is that?
Bruckner...
What was your plan?
No point in playing the hero.
Bruckner is dead.
Who are you trying to protect?
Rhea...is a simulation, a lie.
The people in the tanks...
Bullshit.
Their brains are being used as neural units to create the simulation.
We talk to the people on Rhea all the time.
Kuiper is lying to all of humanity.
Everything is covered up.
Get him out of here.
If people knew that parts of earth are habitable again...
the whole system would break down.
You killed him, didn't you?
He lost it. He killed Lacroix.
And Yoshida?
Move it.
How's your little patient?
Good.
I think we can move her back into the cargo hold.
Excellent.
Prokoff and Vespucci will give you a hand.
Then we can finally close the cargo hold and...
you'll go into crysleep.
I will handle your shift.
So.. you know about Rhea...
The simulation is only temporary...
The colonization of Rhea was a failure from the get-go.
Our changes to the planet's ecosystem caused unforeseen consequences.
We will find another planet.
And we won't repeat the mistakes we made on Rhea.
But until then...
people need something to keep them alive.
And that thing is hope.
What happens to those who find out they're living in a simulation?
The simulation is perfect...
I was in there myself.
It's impossible for anyone to notice anything.
Why are you doing all this?
You just don't get it.
Soon we'll be on Rhea.
But you and your... saboteur... won't make it there alive.
No one will care about the death of the ones who murdered the captain.
Did you know that we were going to Rhea?
But... Rhea is a simulation...
Who cares?
Better than staying on this piece of junk.
What about all my plants?
You idiot, there will be more plants than you ever dreamed of.
On Rhea, there is everything.
Everything.
I couldn't tell you the truth.
Laura.. there's many reasons not to trust me...
But we are the only ones who can finish this mission.
Will you help me?
Will you help me get my sister out of there?
We need 2 people to do this.
It's impossible to enter the simulation on your own.
We'll dock at Station 42 according to plan.
We can delay the cargo unload procedure by 30 minutes.
The Kassandra will then unload automatically.
Laura and me will be flying to the station.
And log into the system right here.
How's that going to work?
The hardware used for connecting is here, in the connection modules.
I will connect Laura to the simulation
here on the main module.
Once she's in, she will send a message to Earth.
Meanwhile, I'll go look for her sister's tank.
When we're done, we'll blow up the transponder of the main antenna.
The station itself stays fully operational.
That means...
Everyone will keep living in the simulation.
But they won't be able to send any more messages.
Laura's message..
will be the last.
I hope people back home will believe us.
Is the Earth really habitable again?
We had 3 expeditions.
Nature is rampant.
She's talking everything back.
Whole cities are grown over up to the 2nd floor.
I'll bring Ariane back to Earth.
There's millions of tanks, Laura..
Even if we do find her...
I don't know in what condition she'll be in.
She was in the simulation for a long time.
We have to try.
I want to show her the Earth...
Has this interface been used before?
No, it's a prototype.
It works like a neural connection for the simulation.
Don't be scared.
27 minutes.
Don't you think we should...
What?
I'm doing this for you, and me. For both of us!
As if I'll let this pass us by.
We'll throw some guys out of their tanks and go in ourselves.
Once the ship is unloaded, we'll be on Rhea!
God damnit...
Prokoff. Do you hear me?
I have Lindbergh's card.
Reprogram the unload timer to 10 minutes, got it?
Otherwise those 2 will make it back...
and the containers won't be unloaded...
and we won't be on Rhea, got it?
We have to hurry... let's meet in the cargo hold, ok?
Decker? Can you hear me?
I have problems with my fuel cell.
The cell is... *garbage*
[scrambled]
under no circumstances... open... gate
Rhea here we come!
find... cell...
found nothing...
coming anyway...
I don't think that's a good ide... where you are...
I'm trying to find Ariane's tank.
Laura... copy..?
Decker, can you hear me?
Decker!
I can't control my thrusters anymore!
I'm drifting off!
Decker! Where are you?!
Decker... where are you?
I see you.
I found Ariane's tank...
Impossible...
I'm sorry.
I want to see her.
Set the module to my sister's simulation.
I'll send the message from there.
The Kassandra.
Prokoff and Vespucci...
Those idiots.
That means we have 7 minutes at the most...
then I'll get you out manually.
OK.
Look how beautiful we have it here...
Finally you can actually see it.
Finally...
And your room is almost ready too!
You look beautiful.
Come in.
I'll show you everything.
Kids, look who's here!
Laura are you crying?
Ariane, I have to go for a minute.
What's wrong?
I love you, Ariane.
Laura, where are you going?
My name is Laura Portmann.
This is the last message from Rhea.
Rhea is not paradise.
Rhea is a simulation.
We will bring you proof.
We were all betrayed.
Everything about Rhea is a lie.
We don't need Rhea.
However, we still have Earth.
Earth is habitable again.
Nobody will ever have contact with Rhea again.
We're destroying the antennas now.
Do you hear me?
Yes.
Good, we must hurry.
The Kassandra could launch anytime now...
and you have to go back on your own.
On my own?
Yes.
I'm not leaving without you.
You have to.
We won't make it far with just one jetpack.
I gave you my fuel cell.
It has enough fuel to get you to the Kassandra.
I'm not leaving without you.
Go back to the girl.
She's our only proof.
Go.
I can't!
You can.
No...
I love you.
Where is the girl!?
No one will be able to send messages from Rhea now.
My name is Laura Portmann.
This is the last message from Rhea.
Rhea is not paradise.
Rhea is a simulation.
We will bring you proof.
We were all betrayed.
We don't need Rhea.
However, we still have Earth.
Earth is habitable again.
Nobody will ever have contact with Rhea again.
We're destroying the antennas now.
