Captain Becker. Welcome back to the ARC.
The new ARC.
You have no idea how good it is to have finally some company here.
I'm supposed to report to Parker.
- Jess Parker. At your service. - You're...
You're the field coordinator?
I'm sorry. Not usually this crazy, I promise. Well, not unpleasantly crazy.
Only I have been here on my own for the last two weeks. Just me and the creatures.
I have been going to all mission reports.
- Fun. - No, they're good. Really.
The best part is I already feel like I know you.
And Abby, Connor and Danny.
If you wanna come through, I'll get you set up.
- It's me. Can you talk? - Have you heard something?
Not yet. ***
You sound worried.
You shouldn't be, your background is perfect.
Besides, it's possible
that make you sound a little bit more perfect.
Yeah, I noticed, claiming Everest, really? You don't think that's pushing it?
You have to be approved by ARC-security, ***
Trust me.
It's not enough to just impress,
you have to intimidate them.
Matt Anderson, new team leader, or will be.
Lester wants you to look this over to see if everything is okay.
Lester still chooses the stuff?
- Thought, the ARC was privately owned now? - 50/50, government/private.
And Lester still reports to the minister.
And not to this Nobel prize winning blown from Prospero. What was his name?
Philipp Burton. He seems to have to keep both unhappy.
Pretty impressive CV.
All the stuff this guy has done. You think of
how old and crusty he'll be. He's not, he's young.
***
What?
Nothing. Nothing.
Is he the only candidate?
Got to be about the Everest.
Way some people feel the need to...
Boast about things.
***
Excuse me?
It's nothing, but if you’re gonna put the
breaks on this guy for being too good.
That would be pretty lame.
I'm...no one is putting breaks on anyone. I mean...
He's ex-military. Decorated for heroism. He's an expert in
animal behavior and he's got countless glowing references. He's perfect.
I really meant. Whether he was the only candidate?
I think you don't want your boss to be better than you are.
I see, you're making fun of me.
Totally. Just checking to see if you smile. And you're doing.
Which means so far way better company than a mammoth.
You have...something...It's disgusting.
Right, thank you.
I'll see you there.
- You've heard? - I have.
I'm in.
- You're ready for this. - I know.
You worked hard for it and you're the perfect
candidate not just for the job for the mission.
Now...
Whatever happens...
Don't mess it up.
