Transcript
- 0:01Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Captain's log number four hundred and ninety eight,
- 0:04Capt. Bretton Jermaine: captain Bret and Jemaine of the good ship Hecate.
- 0:06Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Although I'm starting to
- 0:07Capt. Bretton Jermaine: question how good it is or will
- 0:10Capt. Bretton Jermaine: be now that our engineer is dead
- 0:12Capt. Bretton Jermaine: again.
- 0:13Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Gah!
- 0:14Capt. Bretton Jermaine: After our last one blew up, it's definitely going to be a lot
- 0:17Capt. Bretton Jermaine: harder to hire them onto the crew moving forward.
- 0:21Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Heck, when I hired Tab and he asked what happened to the last
- 0:24Capt. Bretton Jermaine: guy, I just told him he had a violent outburst that led to his
- 0:28Capt. Bretton Jermaine: dismissal from the crew.
- 0:29Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Which, you know, it's not technically lying.
- 0:32Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Anyways, I and several others have already begun suspecting
- 0:35Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Murray having something to do with it, although admittedly,
- 0:38Capt. Bretton Jermaine: the kid doesn't have it in him to kill a man, much less be one.
- 0:43Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Heh.
- 0:43Capt. Bretton Jermaine: My current suspicion is that our late engineer needed some sort
- 0:46Capt. Bretton Jermaine: of assistance and foolishly asked my son for help.
- 0:50Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And of course, Murray did such a bang up job helping it killed
- 0:55Capt. Bretton Jermaine: the poor man.
- 0:56Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Glad I took the crew liability
- 0:58Capt. Bretton Jermaine: insurance after our last
- 0:59Capt. Bretton Jermaine: mission.
- 1:00Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Ironically, I might even come out on top after this.
- 1:03Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Only time will tell.
- 1:04Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Captain Britain Germain signing off.
- 1:11Cameron: Welcome back to episode two of horror on the Hecate.
- 1:16Cameron: I've got Skyler Gorsett playing, uh.
- 1:20Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Britain. Germain. Captain Britain Germain.
- 1:23Cameron: We have David Marsberg in here playing Maui Masters.
- 1:27Cameron: And we got Gwen Newton here playing.
- 1:29Cameron: I am Mary Germain, and we're
- 1:32Cameron: brother of the Captain Britain
- 1:34Cameron: Germain.
- 1:34Cameron: Yep.
- 1:35Capt. Bretton Jermaine: He's my pilot.
- 1:36Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And he.
- 1:36Cameron: Was.
- 1:37Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Not the best man at my wedding.
- 1:38Capt. Bretton Jermaine: But that's alright.
- 1:40Capt. Bretton Jermaine: We've gotten past that.
- 1:42Cameron: Let's get right back into horror on the Hecate.
- 1:57Cameron: Where we last left off.
- 1:59Cameron: the crew, all saw a dead engineer.
- 2:02Cameron: Tab rivers ripped apart, covered in like an oily film.
- 2:05Cameron: Yeah.
- 2:06Speaker 3: Oh, shoot.
- 2:06Speaker 3: Was it the same oily film that we found inside?
- 2:08Cameron: The same thing you found on top of the box?
- 2:10Cameron: Yes.
- 2:11Capt. Bretton Jermaine: It's more evidence that it might have been Murray.
- 2:13Cameron: While this was happening,
- 2:14Cameron: everyone kind of split up after
- 2:16Cameron: this.
- 2:17Cameron: Dirk and Bowie went to go put on their suits.
- 2:21Cameron: Was there a reason for Bowie
- 2:22Cameron: wanting to put on his
- 2:23Cameron: spacesuits?
- 2:24Cameron: Bowie doesn't want to get any oil on him.
- 2:27Cameron: He doesn't like.
- 2:28Cameron: He doesn't like oil, oil or grease.
- 2:31Cameron: Oh is there.
- 2:31Cameron: What's the reasoning for that?
- 2:33Cameron: Uh, he feels like if he gets
- 2:35Cameron: that on his hand, just any, any
- 2:37Cameron: piece of ice he eats is gonna be
- 2:40Cameron: tainted.
- 2:40Cameron: It's not gonna taste right.
- 2:42Cameron: Oh. So he.
- 2:42Cameron: Okay, well, that's.
- 2:44Speaker 3: And it makes him slippery.
- 2:45Cameron: And it makes him slippery, which you're out there, and it might
- 2:48Cameron: be hard to get.
- 2:48Cameron: That gunk is already slippery.
- 2:50Cameron: It's not proper lubricant for your hand.
- 2:52Cameron: Right.
- 2:53Cameron: So it might mess up some system stuff.
- 2:55Cameron: Diagnostics might be, you know, awful after that.
- 2:59Speaker 3: That's a good.
- 2:59Cameron: Point. So. And then Dirk's like, sure, I don't freaking care.
- 3:02Cameron: Uh, might as well have an extra precaution in case of the ship
- 3:05Cameron: just blows open randomly.
- 3:06Cameron: So you guys, they go and you guys put on your suits while
- 3:09Cameron: they're doing that.
- 3:10Cameron: What do the other three of you do?
- 3:12Cameron: The the captain, the pilot, and the son.
- 3:14Speaker 3: Oh, I thought he went off to go fly the ship.
- 3:18Cameron: Well, he came back to tell you that Tab was dead.
- 3:20Cameron: That's right.
- 3:20Cameron: He's like, standing next to you, just holding his shoulder, which
- 3:23Cameron: is messed up.
- 3:24Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, while those guys go and
- 3:27Capt. Bretton Jermaine: put on their suits, you know,
- 3:30Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I've never really thought about
- 3:32Capt. Bretton Jermaine: it, but do you think the big
- 3:33Capt. Bretton Jermaine: freaking gun.
- 3:34Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, sorry.
- 3:35Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Big freaking blaster might be able to kill a space ghost.
- 3:40Capt. Bretton Jermaine: It'll definitely kill.
- 3:41Speaker 3: Him trying.
- 3:42Murray: I. You sure you want to shoot that inside of an enclosed ship?
- 3:47Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Why do you think I brought it in the ship?
- 3:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I bring it every take off that I go on.
- 3:51Murray: How many times have you fired that thing?
- 3:54Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, let's see.
- 3:54Capt. Bretton Jermaine: There was the time inside the hangar just the other day.
- 3:58Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah.
- 3:59Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And then maybe like this one time when someone was hitting on
- 4:03Capt. Bretton Jermaine: your mom at the tavern.
- 4:05Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And I just happened to have it with me.
- 4:07Capt. Bretton Jermaine: So you.
- 4:07Murray: Haven't.
- 4:08Cameron: Shot it inside of a ship yet?
- 4:10Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I suppose not.
- 4:11Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Okay. There was one time.
- 4:13Barry Jermaine: When are you questioning your father?
- 4:16Barry Jermaine: No. How about you shut your mouth?
- 4:18Murray: Okay.
- 4:19Capt. Bretton Jermaine: There was one time when Barry
- 4:20Capt. Bretton Jermaine: and I went to, uh, one of those
- 4:22Capt. Bretton Jermaine: ranges.
- 4:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: What's that?
- 4:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: What's that?
- 4:24Cameron: And he points at a a a monitor that has a warning flash on it.
- 4:29Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, that's actually a computer monitor.
- 4:31Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Murray.
- 4:31Cameron: And it says.
- 4:32Hacate Computer: Warning, warning approaching Saturn.
- 4:35Hacate Computer: Ring pass.
- 4:36Hacate Computer: Prepare for orbital adjustment.
- 4:38Cameron: Oh, and you guys are so cut.
- 4:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Away from that.
- 4:40Cameron: You guys are so caught up with all this that you didn't realize
- 4:44Cameron: that you were getting really close to Saturn.
- 4:46Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh, is there any kind.
- 4:47Cameron: Of, like.
- 4:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Comm.
- 4:48Cameron: System?
- 4:49Cameron: Yeah, sure. Yeah. Yeah. I imagine like on there's like at
- 4:52Cameron: each door, there's like a box where you can push.
- 4:54Cameron: Uh, I run.
- 4:55Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Over to the comm system and I slap the button and I say.
- 4:58Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Dak Bowie, we're about to go over the ice.
- 5:01Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I know we've got a space ghost or chimp or something on the
- 5:04Capt. Bretton Jermaine: ship, but we don't want to miss out on profits.
- 5:06Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And don't forget your shares have just increased because we
- 5:09Capt. Bretton Jermaine: have one fewer crew member over.
- 5:12Cameron: Um, what does Dirk and Bowie do when they hear this?
- 5:16Cameron: They're already in their suit.
- 5:17Cameron: Ah. Looks like we're ahead of the game, Dirk.
- 5:21Cameron: Yeah, I guess so.
- 5:22Cameron: Yeah.
- 5:22Cameron: Well, might as well give our,
- 5:23Cameron: uh, belts attached and be ready
- 5:26Cameron: and get our, uh, our mining
- 5:27Cameron: picks ready and our, our, uh,
- 5:29Cameron: gather buckets and get ready for
- 5:31Cameron: this first.
- 5:33Cameron: Go through.
- 5:33Cameron: Yeah.
- 5:34Cameron: I'll go, I'll go fetch chip and pail.
- 5:37Cameron: That's what I call my tools.
- 5:39Cameron: You name them.
- 5:41Cameron: Oh, of course.
- 5:42Cameron: I just call it pickaxe and bucket.
- 5:45Cameron: Well, now we can tell them apart.
- 5:47Cameron: Oh, good.
- 5:48Cameron: Yeah.
- 5:48Cameron: Okay.
- 5:49Cameron: Don't tell me you bedazzled them.
- 5:51Cameron: I may have doodled on them.
- 5:52Cameron: Okay.
- 5:53Cameron: Well, now we'll really be able to tell them like they have
- 5:56Cameron: like, googly eyes.
- 5:57Cameron: Googly eyes on both.
- 5:59Cameron: That's hilarious.
- 6:00Cameron: Okay, so.
- 6:01Murray: You.
- 6:01Cameron: two get ready for your space thing.
- 6:03Cameron: It gets lonely in space.
- 6:05Cameron: The pilot.
- 6:06Cameron: You have to go to the front, and
- 6:07Cameron: you've got to fly your way
- 6:10Cameron: through these.
- 6:11Barry Jermaine: Uh oh.
- 6:11Barry Jermaine: I'm gonna navigate this like you ain't ever seen.
- 6:14Cameron: Yeah. I mean, last time you said
- 6:15Cameron: you did this with your knees,
- 6:16Cameron: so.
- 6:17Cameron: Mhm.
- 6:17Cameron: So you go up to the front, you undo the autopilot.
- 6:21Cameron: And.
- 6:22Cameron: What are you doing, captain?
- 6:24Cameron: Uh, I think I.
- 6:25Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Would have gone with him.
- 6:26Cameron: Okay.
- 6:26Capt. Bretton Jermaine: So that I can oversee.
- 6:27Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I mean, that's kind of where I go is like, you know, Murray is.
- 6:31Cameron: Sitting on a chair right behind both of.
- 6:33Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You. Yeah. And I'm nervously
- 6:34Capt. Bretton Jermaine: glancing back every once in a
- 6:35Capt. Bretton Jermaine: while to make sure that he's not
- 6:36Capt. Bretton Jermaine: getting up.
- 6:37Cameron: He's just kind of just massaging his shoulder while just sitting
- 6:40Cameron: quietly, watching and nervously looking over his shoulder back
- 6:44Cameron: at the ship.
- 6:44Cameron: The whole like he's like sitting
- 6:46Cameron: sideways or like half of him is
- 6:48Cameron: looking out the front and the
- 6:49Cameron: other half's looking back into
- 6:50Cameron: the ship.
- 6:51Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I notice how nervous he is, And I feel more confident due to
- 6:56Capt. Bretton Jermaine: that because if he's nervously looking at other things, it
- 6:59Capt. Bretton Jermaine: means he's not goofing around with things he shouldn't be.
- 7:03Cameron: Okay, you guys all get in your positions to do this ice run.
- 7:07Cameron: As you come into the gap of the
- 7:10Cameron: first pass through Saturn's
- 7:12Cameron: outermost ring.
- 7:13Barry Jermaine: So we're doing this even despite the fact that we have a
- 7:16Barry Jermaine: countdown that says we're going to die in less than an hour.
- 7:19Cameron: No, that countdown ended.
- 7:21Barry Jermaine: Oh, we did.
- 7:21Cameron: When the power came back on.
- 7:22Cameron: It's fine now.
- 7:24Cameron: Okay.
- 7:24Cameron: Oh. Did you guys still think that stuff was on?
- 7:26Capt. Bretton Jermaine: No, I figured it was on.
- 7:27Cameron: Yeah. When the power came back, though, that was only on.
- 7:29Cameron: On because the power was off.
- 7:30Cameron: That was like your emergency system.
- 7:32Cameron: Gotcha.
- 7:33Cameron: But you're not an emergency anymore.
- 7:34Cameron: Yeah.
- 7:34Cameron: So, yes, there you're doing this mission.
- 7:37Cameron: Uh, you want to make a two poles
- 7:38Cameron: for me as you navigate through
- 7:40Cameron: this ring.
- 7:41Barry Jermaine: We're gonna die.
- 7:42Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh, for those listening at home,
- 7:44Capt. Bretton Jermaine: it's looking a bit spacious at
- 7:47Capt. Bretton Jermaine: this point.
- 7:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: The Jenga tower that is going towards the top where there
- 7:52Capt. Bretton Jermaine: might be some loose bricks.
- 7:55Capt. Bretton Jermaine: He's flying through, dodging space rocks and huge chunks of
- 8:01Capt. Bretton Jermaine: ice the size of our ship.
- 8:05Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Careful not to run us into one that would leave us floating in
- 8:13Capt. Bretton Jermaine: the deadly vastness of space.
- 8:16Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And he does it.
- 8:16Cameron: He does it.
- 8:17Cameron: Congratulations.
- 8:19Cameron: He may have used his hands, but he did it.
- 8:22Cameron: Um, you guys, you successfully get your way through.
- 8:25Cameron: Uh, as you go sailing through,
- 8:27Cameron: you get yourself in a nice pass,
- 8:28Cameron: and a message goes overhead of
- 8:32Cameron: the Dirk and Bowie saying, all
- 8:34Cameron: clear.
- 8:35Cameron: And they open up.
- 8:36Cameron: You guys open up your thing, and
- 8:37Cameron: you guys go out on your little
- 8:39Cameron: spacewalk.
- 8:39Cameron: And for like the next couple
- 8:41Cameron: hours, you guys are going to be
- 8:42Cameron: floating through this ice chunk
- 8:44Cameron: and you and your brother are
- 8:46Cameron: just going to be grabbing chunks
- 8:48Cameron: of ice and sticking it in your
- 8:50Cameron: bucket and hitting them with a
- 8:51Cameron: pickaxe and making them smaller
- 8:52Cameron: so you can fit them in your
- 8:53Cameron: things.
- 8:53Cameron: You're basically going to go in and out of the, uh, the ship,
- 8:58Cameron: uh, doing your normal.
- 8:59Cameron: You've done both of you have done this before.
- 9:01Cameron: The last time though, you did
- 9:02Cameron: this, you, uh, you injured your
- 9:04Cameron: hand.
- 9:05Cameron: Yeah, yeah.
- 9:06Cameron: How did that happen?
- 9:07Cameron: And what are you doing to prevent that from happening
- 9:09Cameron: again this time?
- 9:10Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh, well, uh.
- 9:12Cameron: Chip got.
- 9:12Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Stuck in the ice, and I was trying to pull him out, and one
- 9:17Capt. Bretton Jermaine: of the, uh, the other ice chunks was vectoring towards the chunk
- 9:22Capt. Bretton Jermaine: it was embedded in and couldn't get him out in time and crushed
- 9:28Capt. Bretton Jermaine: my hand in there.
- 9:29Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oof!
- 9:29Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I bet that.
- 9:30Cameron: Hurt like the Dickens.
- 9:32Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah, I was able to kick it off, but we lost that ice chunk.
- 9:36Capt. Bretton Jermaine: They weren't too happy about that.
- 9:38Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um, I get on the comms and I say.
- 9:42Capt. Bretton Jermaine: How you doing out there, Bowie?
- 9:44Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh.
- 9:44Hacate Computer: Yeah, I'm doing good.
- 9:45Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Good, good.
- 9:46Capt. Bretton Jermaine: The equipment feel all right?
- 9:49Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yep.
- 9:49Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah.
- 9:49Capt. Bretton Jermaine: The hand feels loose getting ready to crunch that ice.
- 9:54Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You might.
- 9:54Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You might feel some unexpected things happening out amidst the
- 9:58Capt. Bretton Jermaine: vastness of space.
- 10:00Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um, your nipples are probably
- 10:01Capt. Bretton Jermaine: going to get very hard and
- 10:03Capt. Bretton Jermaine: pointy.
- 10:04Capt. Bretton Jermaine: So just be aware of that.
- 10:06Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, yeah.
- 10:07Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah, they always do.
- 10:08Capt. Bretton Jermaine: All right.
- 10:09Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Be careful out there.
- 10:11Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Don't trust him.
- 10:15Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Come.
- 10:15Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Come again, captain b o. I said
- 10:17Capt. Bretton Jermaine: your nipples are going to get
- 10:18Capt. Bretton Jermaine: quite painty.
- 10:20Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um, hopefully hard enough to cut ice.
- 10:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: He's dangerous.
- 10:27Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh. Who is the chimp?
- 10:30Capt. Bretton Jermaine: What?
- 10:30Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, Jim, I don't know.
- 10:32Capt. Bretton Jermaine: His nipples also might be pointy.
- 10:33Capt. Bretton Jermaine: It's hard to say.
- 10:34Cameron: Uh, you both hear this voice.
- 10:36Cameron: Oh, I hear it, too.
- 10:37Cameron: Yes.
- 10:37Cameron: Oh, it is coming through the radio.
- 10:40Cameron: I thought it at first.
- 10:41Cameron: I thought it was just Dirk.
- 10:42Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Dirk, can you please stop?
- 10:43Capt. Bretton Jermaine: We're getting some feedback from you.
- 10:45Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That wasn't me.
- 10:46Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That was someone else.
- 10:47Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I heard it, too.
- 10:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, I think it's.
- 10:50Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I think it's the ice.
- 10:52Capt. Bretton Jermaine: The ice talks to you.
- 10:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Bowie, what the hell are you talking about, brother?
- 10:56Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, yeah.
- 10:58Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh, sometimes we have conversations.
- 11:00Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I mean, chip pail and the ice.
- 11:04Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Why are we having conversations with him?
- 11:07Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I, I can tell you, I've done more ice runs than you, bro.
- 11:11Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I've never heard the ice talk to me before.
- 11:15Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh, I'm surprised you guys can hear.
- 11:16Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I thought I was just in my head.
- 11:18Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh, I'm gonna I'm gonna ignore that factor.
- 11:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um, but it it was most certainly in my head.
- 11:25Cameron: And then out of nowhere, you guys.
- 11:27Cameron: Just hear like.
- 11:31Cameron: And it's just like this garbled mess of like, data files, you
- 11:35Cameron: know, the sound like you hear when you hear like data being
- 11:38Cameron: sent and it just starts like it starts quiet and you guys hear
- 11:41Cameron: it in the background.
- 11:42Cameron: And then just slowly it just grows in sound.
- 11:46Cameron: And then you guys are talking and then you guys can't even
- 11:49Cameron: hear each other talking.
- 11:50Cameron: And then the whole audio file is just like.
- 11:55Cameron: And you guys, it's definite.
- 11:56Cameron: You have to take off your headphones and you have to mute
- 11:59Cameron: your comm or else it just gets blaring in your ears.
- 12:04Cameron: And then while this is
- 12:06Cameron: happening, the computer screens
- 12:08Cameron: in front of you start just
- 12:10Cameron: getting binary code on them,
- 12:12Cameron: basically like it looks like the
- 12:14Cameron: matrix.
- 12:16Barry Jermaine: Brother, what did you do to this ship?
- 12:18Cameron: Barry?
- 12:18Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Barry, reboot the.
- 12:20Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Reboot the communications.
- 12:23Barry Jermaine: Do I need to?
- 12:24Cameron: Yes, you do need to make a pull
- 12:25Cameron: if you want to reboot the
- 12:26Cameron: communication.
- 12:27Barry Jermaine: Do we really need them?
- 12:29Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh, yes.
- 12:29Capt. Bretton Jermaine: It's. I can't even hear myself think.
- 12:32Cameron: Yeah. You can.
- 12:32Cameron: He's. His headset is down to his
- 12:34Cameron: side, and you can just hear it
- 12:36Cameron: blaring.
- 12:37Cameron: You can't.
- 12:37Cameron: You just muted it so it's not hurting your ears anymore.
- 12:40Cameron: You and your brothers.
- 12:41Cameron: But you can hear it.
- 12:42Cameron: You can't mute it.
- 12:43Cameron: It's just ongoing.
- 12:44Cameron: Yeah.
- 12:46Cameron: And you can also hear it in the back engineering room.
- 12:48Cameron: You just hear that blaring sound.
- 12:50Barry Jermaine: I'm not sure there's a pole I can make.
- 12:52Barry Jermaine: That's not good at all.
- 12:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You got to make a pole.
- 12:54Murray: You gotta do something, Barry.
- 12:56Murray: It hurts.
- 12:57Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well done, well done.
- 12:58Cameron: You do something.
- 13:02Cameron: And the sound cuts out.
- 13:03Cameron: And the screen that had a whole bunch of, like, weird symbols
- 13:07Cameron: and stuff flashing on it, kind of looking like the matrix
- 13:10Cameron: repairs itself and you see.
- 13:11Barry Jermaine: Stuff kind of ship.
- 13:12Barry Jermaine: Did you get for this mission?
- 13:14Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That was the same ship that we've had for a while.
- 13:16Barry Jermaine: What did you do to it?
- 13:17Cameron: And then the screen goes black.
- 13:31Barry Jermaine: Because Murray.
- 13:32Capt. Bretton Jermaine: He's been sitting over there quietly running.
- 13:34Cameron: The main screen that goes black.
- 13:36Cameron: There's a side screen that shows
- 13:38Cameron: like a solo, like a sonar
- 13:39Cameron: screen.
- 13:40Capt. Bretton Jermaine: The LCD screen, it.
- 13:41Cameron: Goes black and you guys don't really notice it because it's
- 13:44Cameron: off to the side.
- 13:45Cameron: It's just like a ship screen that kind of shows the launchers
- 13:48Cameron: of the ship and stuff.
- 13:49Cameron: So it's off to the side and Murray points and he goes, dad!
- 13:53Cameron: Um.
- 13:54Cameron: Murray.
- 13:54Murray: Is that normal?
- 13:56Cameron: Wow. He points in its text has now spread onto this screen.
- 14:02Cameron: Um, and it reads.
- 14:05Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have
- 14:10Capt. Bretton Jermaine: succeeded than encouraging people who have not.
- 14:14Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Murray, is this some kind of prank?
- 14:16Murray: No.
- 14:17Murray: I look.
- 14:19Cameron: And then you see it clear.
- 14:21Cameron: It goes away.
- 14:21Cameron: And then another thing comes on.
- 14:23Cameron: Mind you, while this is
- 14:24Cameron: happening, you and your brother
- 14:26Cameron: hear this.
- 14:28Cameron: It's like a text to speech audio through your headsets.
- 14:32Cameron: Next it says.
- 14:33Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I put up my thumb and shut one
- 14:36Capt. Bretton Jermaine: eye and my thumb blotted out the
- 14:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: planet.
- 14:40Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I didn't feel like a giant.
- 14:42Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I felt very.
- 14:44Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Very Well, that certainly doesn't sound like Murray.
- 14:50Murray: I never did any of this.
- 14:52Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I run over to this.
- 14:53Murray: Sounds like some tab would say.
- 14:57Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, he's dead.
- 14:59Capt. Bretton Jermaine: So it's really it's really morbid that you brought him up.
- 15:01Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Murray.
- 15:01Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I'm sorry.
- 15:02Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I just.
- 15:02Murray: He talked to me for like an hour straight.
- 15:05Cameron: And.
- 15:05Murray: It was very luxury like this look.
- 15:08Cameron: And he sees it clear again and it says.
- 15:11Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Finally it shrank to the size of a marble.
- 15:16Capt. Bretton Jermaine: The most beautiful you can imagine.
- 15:19Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That beautiful, warm living object looked so fragile, so
- 15:26Capt. Bretton Jermaine: delicate, that if you touched it with a finger, it would crumble
- 15:31Capt. Bretton Jermaine: and fall apart.
- 15:33Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Seeing this has to change a man.
- 15:37Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Is there a keyboard by this screen?
- 15:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: No. Oh dang it.
- 15:41Cameron: It is just a monitor.
- 15:43Cameron: It has some buttons you can push to change like the different
- 15:45Cameron: rooms you can see.
- 15:46Cameron: But currently those are all gone.
- 15:47Cameron: Yeah, the buttons are still
- 15:49Cameron: there, but the screen is not
- 15:50Cameron: showing you.
- 15:51Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, it's like, oh, it's like a camera.
- 15:53Cameron: Yeah, it's like a camera monitor, basically.
- 15:55Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Security camera.
- 15:55Cameron: Yeah, yeah.
- 15:56Cameron: Okay. But that's gone and it's just showing you like text file
- 15:59Cameron: with green text.
- 16:00Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I get onto the com system and I say.
- 16:05Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Hello, space ghost.
- 16:09Capt. Bretton Jermaine: What do you want to tell me
- 16:12Capt. Bretton Jermaine: through the LCD screen you have
- 16:15Capt. Bretton Jermaine: taken over?
- 16:16Cameron: You see the screen clear and then it says.
- 16:21Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh, Chinese tale tells of some men sent to harm a young girl
- 16:26Capt. Bretton Jermaine: who, upon seeing her beauty become her protectors rather
- 16:32Capt. Bretton Jermaine: than her violators.
- 16:34Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That's how I felt seeing the planet for the first time.
- 16:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I could not help but love and cherish huh?
- 16:45Barry Jermaine: Yeah, that's cool and all.
- 16:46Barry Jermaine: What do you want?
- 16:47Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I feel like Zak Bagans right now talking to Space Ghost.
- 16:51Barry Jermaine: I remember watching his show from three hundred years ago.
- 16:54Barry Jermaine: Are you?
- 16:54Barry Jermaine: Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.
- 16:55Barry Jermaine: Let me.
- 16:56Barry Jermaine: I'm gonna channel him.
- 16:57Barry Jermaine: I used to, I watched his show all the time.
- 16:59Barry Jermaine: Yeah, those shows, those shows
- 17:01Barry Jermaine: from, like, three hundred years
- 17:02Barry Jermaine: ago, two hundred years ago are
- 17:03Barry Jermaine: fantastic.
- 17:04Barry Jermaine: I'm gonna do the thing.
- 17:05Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Do the.
- 17:05Barry Jermaine: Thing. There's a. Oh, my God, there.
- 17:08Barry Jermaine: You hear that?
- 17:08Barry Jermaine: Did you hear that?
- 17:09Barry Jermaine: Did you hear that?
- 17:10Barry Jermaine: There's something there.
- 17:11Barry Jermaine: There's something there.
- 17:11Barry Jermaine: There's something there.
- 17:13Dirk Masters: I was just talking to you through the.
- 17:15Dirk Masters: Oh, it's just me, Dirk.
- 17:16Barry Jermaine: Okay. Hey. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- 17:18Barry Jermaine: All right, all right.
- 17:19Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I'm gonna try it.
- 17:20Capt. Bretton Jermaine: We're trying to talk to the Space Ghost.
- 17:21Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Dirk.
- 17:22Dirk Masters: Oh, it's the Space Ghost talking.
- 17:24Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah, we're pretty sure we've.
- 17:25Barry Jermaine: Got to try again.
- 17:26Barry Jermaine: Try again, try again.
- 17:28Barry Jermaine: Oh, something's totally touched me.
- 17:29Barry Jermaine: Did you see that?
- 17:30Barry Jermaine: Something just totally touched me.
- 17:31Barry Jermaine: Something touched me on the shoulder.
- 17:32Barry Jermaine: It's right there.
- 17:33Barry Jermaine: Did you feel it?
- 17:33Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I felt my hand.
- 17:35Barry Jermaine: Oh. Can I try.
- 17:36Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Again?
- 17:37Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Barry, I don't think this is working.
- 17:38Dirk Masters: I think your your brother's a little paranoid.
- 17:41Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I think he's.
- 17:43Capt. Bretton Jermaine: He watched a lot of ghost adventures.
- 17:45Dirk Masters: I know my brother was weird
- 17:47Dirk Masters: listening to the ice talk to
- 17:48Dirk Masters: him.
- 17:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah, that was quite strange.
- 17:49Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Give me just a moment here.
- 17:51Capt. Bretton Jermaine: All right, Mister Space Ghost, could you please tell us.
- 17:55Barry Jermaine: What you what?
- 17:56Barry Jermaine: What?
- 17:57Barry Jermaine: Did you hear that?
- 17:58Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Could you please tell us what you want?
- 18:00Cameron: You guys see the screen wipe again.
- 18:03Cameron: And then it says.
- 18:04Cameron: This time it doesn't say text.
- 18:06Cameron: It's not text.
- 18:07Cameron: It's an audio voice through the
- 18:10Cameron: comm system, as if someone else
- 18:12Cameron: is using the comm system and it
- 18:14Cameron: goes.
- 18:16Dirk Masters: As.
- 18:17Cameron: Human as a. Night number of heartbeats.
- 18:25Cameron: I don't intend to waste any of them.
- 18:38Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well.
- 18:39Cameron: And then you see the screen go back to normal.
- 18:43Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Mr. Space Ghost, did you kill Tab?
- 18:47Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Because that would have been wasting heartbeats, mind you.
- 18:52Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You didn't get a response.
- 18:53Murray: Ah, but you do notice something.
- 18:56Cameron: You guys here in this room, you.
- 19:00Cameron: You and Dirk don't hear this.
- 19:01Cameron: But you on this room hear a distant being on the ship.
- 19:04Cameron: You hear a distant.
- 19:13Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That sounds like the radar.
- 19:14Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Look at the radar.
- 19:15Barry Jermaine: I'm looking at the radar.
- 19:17Cameron: There's nothing, nothing to do with the radar.
- 19:19Cameron: And also, the sound is not coming from the radar.
- 19:21Cameron: It's coming from further into the ship.
- 19:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, I better go check that out.
- 19:26Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Murray, do you want to come with daddy?
- 19:29Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, okay.
- 19:30Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Make yourself useful and leave Uncle Barry alone, okay?
- 19:33Capt. Bretton Jermaine: He's got to drive the ship and keep the boys outside safe.
- 19:37Cameron: Okay.
- 19:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Don't.
- 19:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Just don't just be all okay about it.
- 19:42Capt. Bretton Jermaine: This is pretty serious.
- 19:43Murray: Okay.
- 19:44Capt. Bretton Jermaine: All right, come on.
- 19:45Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I'm coming.
- 19:46Capt. Bretton Jermaine: All right, let's go check it out.
- 19:47Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Okay.
- 19:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: We head down.
- 19:49Cameron: Yeah. He follows you, and he's
- 19:50Cameron: holding his shoulder, and you
- 19:51Cameron: guys go walking to the
- 19:53Cameron: engineering room.
- 19:54Cameron: And when you get to the
- 19:55Cameron: engineering room, you notice
- 19:58Cameron: immediately that the black box
- 20:02Cameron: that was in the center of this
- 20:03Cameron: room, that had the oily phlegm
- 20:05Cameron: on it, has been tipped on its
- 20:08Cameron: side.
- 20:09Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, no. That's not supposed to touch metal.
- 20:11Cameron: And you hear coming from it.
- 20:16Capt. Bretton Jermaine: All right, Murray, we have to get that back up off the metal.
- 20:21Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That was the one rule.
- 20:22Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Have you ever seen Gremlins, Murray?
- 20:24Murray: Yeah, actually, yeah.
- 20:26Murray: It was one of those things the movies used to show.
- 20:28Murray: You literally left me both Gremlins movies.
- 20:31Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, why did I give you the second one also?
- 20:34Cameron: You also left, like, the third Jurassic Park.
- 20:37Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That one was okay.
- 20:39Cameron: But that the first two and I can.
- 20:41Capt. Bretton Jermaine: See how that'd be confusing.
- 20:42Cameron: The first Jumanji.
- 20:43Cameron: I love that one.
- 20:44Cameron: That was pretty good.
- 20:45Capt. Bretton Jermaine: The original.
- 20:45Cameron: Yeah. Yeah. And then all three Terminators.
- 20:49Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I didn't really even watch those, to be honest with you.
- 20:51Cameron: RoboCop two.
- 20:52Cameron: That was pretty cool.
- 20:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: RoboCop two.
- 20:54Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I should not have let you watch that.
- 20:56Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That's for sure.
- 20:57Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um. All right.
- 20:57Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, um, much like in Gremlins, how you're not supposed to feed
- 21:02Capt. Bretton Jermaine: it after midnight.
- 21:03Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah.
- 21:03Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You're not supposed to let this thing touch metal.
- 21:06Cameron: Okay, well, it's not an island metal on plastic.
- 21:09Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, think think blog on for that.
- 21:11Cameron: Think, Borgen.
- 21:13Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I'm glad that you kept up with your religious studies.
- 21:15Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Now, help me get this thing back on its pedestal.
- 21:17Cameron: All right.
- 21:17Cameron: And you both go to push it up, and it feels like it's bolted
- 21:23Cameron: down to that side.
- 21:25Capt. Bretton Jermaine: All right.
- 21:27Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I wasn't one hundred percent sure.
- 21:29Cameron: The buttons on the side are top side up.
- 21:32Cameron: So if you did want to push any
- 21:34Cameron: of them, you have access to
- 21:35Cameron: them.
- 21:35Cameron: They're not blocked, is what I'm getting at.
- 21:37Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, I'm not going to push any
- 21:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: of them because they were for
- 21:40Capt. Bretton Jermaine: processing ice.
- 21:42Cameron: No one of them opened it.
- 21:44Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, is there a button to close it?
- 21:47Cameron: It's the same button.
- 21:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: All right.
- 21:49Cameron: It was a button to open and close it.
- 21:50Cameron: And the button?
- 21:51Cameron: The red one next to it.
- 21:52Cameron: It's the processing.
- 21:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Right, right, right.
- 21:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, I'll push the button to close it.
- 21:55Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Now step back.
- 21:56Cameron: No, it's it's closed currently.
- 21:57Cameron: Oh, it's just on its side.
- 22:00Cameron: Originally it was standing,
- 22:02Cameron: standing up, but it was still
- 22:03Cameron: closed.
- 22:04Cameron: But now it's on its side and
- 22:06Cameron: feels like it's stuck on its
- 22:07Cameron: side.
- 22:08Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Let's take a peek.
- 22:09Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And I push the button to open it.
- 22:10Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Okay, you.
- 22:11Cameron: Open it and you look inside and
- 22:14Cameron: you see inside of it a small
- 22:17Cameron: sphere, metallic.
- 22:19Cameron: It could fit inside the palm of your hand.
- 22:22Speaker 14: That's not supposed to be in there.
- 22:24Speaker 14: Murray.
- 22:25Speaker 14: It's metal.
- 22:26Cameron: And you both look at it and then it goes.
- 22:29Speaker 14: Well, gosh darn it.
- 22:30Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And I grab it out.
- 22:32Cameron: And you grab it and you take it out of there and you're looking
- 22:35Cameron: at it and you really don't know what it is.
- 22:39Cameron: And it makes the sound in your hand.
- 22:42Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah. You'll boop all you want.
- 22:43Capt. Bretton Jermaine: But you won't be in my special processor.
- 22:46Cameron: Do you have any ideas what this could be?
- 22:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: It sounds like a bomb.
- 22:51Cameron: But no. That's what I was thinking.
- 22:53Cameron: You might lean.
- 22:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Breton is is.
- 22:55Cameron: You're holding just a goblin bomb.
- 22:57Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Breton is very hopeful that it is not a bomb.
- 23:00Cameron: Those proto life protesters have gone radical.
- 23:04Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That makes so much sense.
- 23:05Cameron: You want.
- 23:06Cameron: I'll let you make a poll to figure out what it is.
- 23:10Cameron: You don't have to.
- 23:11Cameron: This is a choice poll.
- 23:13Cameron: I will tell you exactly what it is.
- 23:16Cameron: If you make a successful.
- 23:17Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Mhm. Curiosity killed the cat.
- 23:20Cameron: I guess if it's a failed, it
- 23:21Cameron: might just blow up in the
- 23:23Cameron: captain.
- 23:24Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Curiosity killed the cat and perhaps the captain.
- 23:28Barry Jermaine: You can get this middle one right here.
- 23:29Barry Jermaine: Easy.
- 23:30Cameron: Middle.
- 23:31Cameron: Are you kidding.
- 23:31Barry Jermaine: Me?
- 23:31Barry Jermaine: Yeah. Easy. The middle is the worst place to pull from.
- 23:34Barry Jermaine: That's holding up everything.
- 23:38Cameron: Yeah, it was a bomb.
- 23:39Cameron: And you blow it and I'm joking.
- 23:40Cameron: Uh.
- 23:41Barry Jermaine: You said it wasn't successful.
- 23:43Cameron: No, he said.
- 23:44Cameron: He'd tell you what it is.
- 23:45Cameron: It's a bomb.
- 23:46Cameron: You're dead.
- 23:47Cameron: But now you know.
- 23:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: At least I managed to take my son Murray with me.
- 23:51Cameron: You know?
- 23:52Cameron: No. Um, you look at this thing and you go, oh, my word.
- 23:58Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh my word.
- 23:59Cameron: This is a tracking device.
- 24:01Capt. Bretton Jermaine: We're being followed.
- 24:03Cameron: And right when you say that to
- 24:05Cameron: your boy on the radar, you spot
- 24:08Cameron: a signal.
- 24:09Cameron: Come on.
- 24:10Cameron: The radar.
- 24:11Cameron: Behind you.
- 24:12Cameron: Oh, I.
- 24:12Barry Jermaine: See a signal behind me.
- 24:14Cameron: Do you yell that back to them?
- 24:15Barry Jermaine: Yeah.
- 24:15Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, I thought he'd be on the comms.
- 24:17Cameron: And then also, at the same time, you and your brother are about
- 24:21Cameron: finishing up with this pass, and you see lights behind you.
- 24:25Cameron: Mind you, it's in space.
- 24:26Cameron: And most also, all the light is coming from Saturn, which is to
- 24:31Cameron: your left where you're heading.
- 24:33Cameron: But from behind you where you came, you see a bright light.
- 24:37Cameron: You just see red.
- 24:38Barry Jermaine: And white lights.
- 24:40Barry Jermaine: Do you know how fast you were going in the Andromeda region?
- 24:43Cameron: Do you guys.
- 24:44Cameron: Do you guys have a.
- 24:45Barry Jermaine: License to be hurt?
- 24:46Barry Jermaine: Are you not having proper identification.
- 24:49Cameron: On the back.
- 24:49Barry Jermaine: Of that vehicle?
- 24:50Barry Jermaine: License and registration.
- 24:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, Barry, show me your license and registration.
- 24:56Barry Jermaine: I forgot it at home.
- 24:58Speaker 16: Barry.
- 24:59Speaker 16: Barry, are you.
- 25:01Cameron: You two.
- 25:02Cameron: You and your brother see this?
- 25:03Cameron: And your brother goes.
- 25:04Dirk Masters: Oh my word.
- 25:05Dirk Masters: Uh, I think we need to call this.
- 25:07Dirk Masters: We need to get.
- 25:08Dirk Masters: We need to pack up now.
- 25:10Dirk Masters: Okay, I just got this one last chunk.
- 25:12Dirk Masters: Okay.
- 25:13Cameron: And he goes heading right back in.
- 25:15Cameron: I need you to make a.
- 25:16Barry Jermaine: Oh, man.
- 25:18Barry Jermaine: Whew.
- 25:18Cameron: As dirt goes flying back in, finishing up his run.
- 25:21Cameron: And you go for one last big chunk that you you're sparkling
- 25:25Cameron: into this, a talkative one.
- 25:27Cameron: It says yeah.
- 25:29Cameron: Come on, come on.
- 25:30Cameron: Chat me up, big boy.
- 25:31Cameron: You know you want me.
- 25:32Cameron: Oh, uh, yeah.
- 25:33Cameron: I'll be your best friend.
- 25:36Cameron: Chat me up.
- 25:37Cameron: Come on baby.
- 25:38Cameron: Put me in that pill.
- 25:40Cameron: Another pal, pal.
- 25:42Barry Jermaine: As he tossed him in the pail.
- 25:44Barry Jermaine: And just like I imagine.
- 25:45Barry Jermaine: You like walking on space.
- 25:46Barry Jermaine: Back to the thing.
- 25:48Barry Jermaine: You're just walking on air as you just walk back to this.
- 25:50Barry Jermaine: He's moonwalking.
- 25:51Barry Jermaine: Uh, you.
- 25:52Barry Jermaine: You and your brother get in time.
- 25:53Cameron: Back to you.
- 25:54Cameron: You're looking at this radar,
- 25:56Cameron: and you see the figures getting
- 25:57Cameron: closer.
- 25:58Cameron: What do you.
- 25:59Cameron: Do?
- 26:01Barry Jermaine: What am I knew?
- 26:02Barry Jermaine: Yeah. MM. Well, there ain't much I can do.
- 26:07Barry Jermaine: I try and radio, you know, radio out behind me, you know.
- 26:10Barry Jermaine: See?
- 26:10Barry Jermaine: Yeah.
- 26:11Dirk Masters: Yeah. Who who goes there?
- 26:12Cameron: You send us, you send a signal?
- 26:14Barry Jermaine: Yeah.
- 26:15Cameron: I call to them.
- 26:16Barry Jermaine: Yeah. Send a call.
- 26:16Barry Jermaine: Who goes there?
- 26:17Cameron: Okay. You get no response.
- 26:20Barry Jermaine: Well, we need to get a skedaddle.
- 26:24Barry Jermaine: Maybe we forget about these other passes and just head back.
- 26:27Cameron: Uh, at this point, you come walking in.
- 26:29Capt. Bretton Jermaine: What did you just say about those passes?
- 26:31Barry Jermaine: Should we just.
- 26:32Barry Jermaine: Do you think you see the.
- 26:33Barry Jermaine: You see what I see behind us?
- 26:35Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Do I see what you see?
- 26:37Barry Jermaine: Do you hear what I hear?
- 26:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I do.
- 26:40Barry Jermaine: Should we just skip these the rest of the night?
- 26:42Capt. Bretton Jermaine: A light.
- 26:43Barry Jermaine: Yeah.
- 26:44Capt. Bretton Jermaine: There's light in the dark.
- 26:45Barry Jermaine: Yeah.
- 26:46Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I sure do hope it's not a space shark.
- 26:49Barry Jermaine: I always loved your humor.
- 26:51Barry Jermaine: In times that we should not meet.
- 26:53Barry Jermaine: Humor.
- 26:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, sorry. Sorry, I. Yes.
- 26:55Barry Jermaine: Um, should we just head back and we take what we got and get the
- 26:57Barry Jermaine: money for what we did?
- 26:58Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You try to make communication?
- 26:59Barry Jermaine: Yes.
- 27:00Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And what did they respond?
- 27:02Barry Jermaine: No.
- 27:03Capt. Bretton Jermaine: It's always easier when they just respond.
- 27:06Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Why can't they be normal people?
- 27:07Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Hey, how's the the two.
- 27:08Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Do you want.
- 27:08Barry Jermaine: To kill us?
- 27:09Barry Jermaine: What do you want?
- 27:10Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Right, right. No, I understand.
- 27:12Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um, let me get on the intercom quick.
- 27:14Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um. I'm duck belly.
- 27:16Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Are you both back inside?
- 27:19Cameron: I guess we switch our comms back on, or we would hear that you
- 27:22Cameron: guys are back in the ship.
- 27:23Cameron: So you guys have probably decontamination.
- 27:25Cameron: You you, your Dirk gets out of his suit and he comes walking
- 27:29Cameron: into the room.
- 27:30Cameron: Do you keep yours on?
- 27:31Cameron: Yeah.
- 27:33Cameron: So you come walking in in your big spacesuit.
- 27:36Cameron: Well, these are modern though, so they're very lightweight
- 27:38Cameron: compared to what we have now.
- 27:39Cameron: Right.
- 27:40Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh good.
- 27:40Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You're back in.
- 27:41Capt. Bretton Jermaine: All right.
- 27:41Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um, did you see anything interesting with our visitors
- 27:46Capt. Bretton Jermaine: while you were out there?
- 27:47Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah.
- 27:47Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You guys having a party?
- 27:48Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, we weren't expecting to, um.
- 27:51Capt. Bretton Jermaine: But we did find this tracking device, which seems very, um,
- 27:55Capt. Bretton Jermaine: shall we say, convenient.
- 27:57Speaker 18: Mhm. Yeah. Mhm.
- 27:59Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Uh, I go over to the communications and I shoot a
- 28:04Capt. Bretton Jermaine: message to the other ship.
- 28:06Capt. Bretton Jermaine: This is Captain Britain Germain of the Hecate ship, the mining
- 28:14Capt. Bretton Jermaine: ship that is.
- 28:16Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And, uh, would you please, at
- 28:18Capt. Bretton Jermaine: the very least, politely
- 28:20Capt. Bretton Jermaine: introduce yourselves.
- 28:21Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Over.
- 28:22Dirk Masters: Yeah, yeah.
- 28:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh. Oh. Uh, yes.
- 28:25Dirk Masters: This is captain Bob Hancock of the Ramseys.
- 28:32Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Well, uh, it's great to meet you, Bob and cook, and, uh.
- 28:35Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, sorry, Captain and Cook.
- 28:37Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um, great to see another ship out here.
- 28:40Dirk Masters: Yeah.
- 28:42Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Why are you coming up on us and spooking us?
- 28:44Capt. Bretton Jermaine: So.
- 28:45Dirk Masters: Oh, um, we were paid to, um.
- 28:49Dirk Masters: No, no offense, but we were paid to destroy your ship.
- 28:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Ah, I see.
- 28:54Dirk Masters: Yeah. Our company.
- 28:57Dirk Masters: Well, we're not going to close who they are, but anyways, um,
- 29:00Dirk Masters: I'm gonna be honest.
- 29:01Dirk Masters: They're kind of jealous that you
- 29:03Dirk Masters: guys are this famous cruiser
- 29:05Dirk Masters: working for the for the August
- 29:07Dirk Masters: company.
- 29:08Dirk Masters: So we were hired to take you out of commission so that Argus gets
- 29:13Dirk Masters: a massive hit.
- 29:15Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Ah, I see.
- 29:16Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Jealousy are a formidable foe indeed.
- 29:19Dirk Masters: So no, no, no harm, no foul.
- 29:21Dirk Masters: Just his business.
- 29:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, certainly.
- 29:24Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Certainly.
- 29:25Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Um, just so you're aware.
- 29:27Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And, um, while this is going on, Britain.
- 29:31Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Can he take the communications mobile?
- 29:34Cameron: Yeah, sure.
- 29:35Cameron: It's twenty twenty seventeen.
- 29:37Cameron: I'm sure it's.
- 29:38Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Like one of the original
- 29:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: wireless phones you could get
- 29:40Capt. Bretton Jermaine: for your.
- 29:40Cameron: There's a lot of wireless.
- 29:41Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Systems and he he he's running
- 29:43Capt. Bretton Jermaine: with it down to to his room
- 29:46Capt. Bretton Jermaine: first and then over to the suit
- 29:49Capt. Bretton Jermaine: up bay.
- 29:49Capt. Bretton Jermaine: While this conversation is going on, he runs to his room, he
- 29:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: grabs the BFB and then he runs to the room that Dirk and Bowie
- 30:00Capt. Bretton Jermaine: were both just at, and he starts putting on Dirk's suit.
- 30:04Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Okay.
- 30:04Speaker 20: Is he gonna.
- 30:05Speaker 20: Drax.
- 30:06Cameron: Yeah. In the second movie, they're getting chased by a
- 30:09Cameron: bunch of those rich people and their private ships, and he
- 30:12Cameron: jumps out of the back.
- 30:14Cameron: He puts on like one of the tethers, jumps out the back of
- 30:16Cameron: the suit and just starts firing at them as he's.
- 30:19Cameron: Are you doing?
- 30:20Capt. Bretton Jermaine: It's been a long time since I've
- 30:22Capt. Bretton Jermaine: seen Guardians of the Galaxy
- 30:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: two.
- 30:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I'd completely forgotten about
- 30:24Capt. Bretton Jermaine: that, but that is essentially
- 30:26Capt. Bretton Jermaine: the plan.
- 30:26Cameron: Okay, so you slap on the thing,
- 30:28Cameron: you slap on the tether, and you
- 30:30Cameron: stand on the back platform as it
- 30:32Cameron: lowers.
- 30:32Cameron: Yep.
- 30:33Cameron: And you pointed at them.
- 30:34Cameron: What do you say?
- 30:36Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Hey, look what I found.
- 30:38Capt. Bretton Jermaine: A big effing blaster.
- 30:42Cameron: I'm gonna need you to make two poles for me.
- 30:44Cameron: But if you are successful, their ship is blowing up this tower.
- 30:49Barry Jermaine: So this one right here.
- 30:50Barry Jermaine: If you can get this one right
- 30:51Barry Jermaine: where your middle finger right
- 30:53Barry Jermaine: there.
- 30:53Barry Jermaine: If you can get that one out.
- 30:54Barry Jermaine: Yeah, yeah.
- 30:56Speaker 21: Oh my God, that's crazy.
- 30:58Cameron: Yeah. You, you stand on the back
- 31:00Cameron: and like and just like fireworks
- 31:03Cameron: is that you hit their shields
- 31:04Cameron: and they were not ready for this
- 31:06Cameron: counterattack.
- 31:07Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah.
- 31:07Cameron: Because you guys are both just mining ships.
- 31:09Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah.
- 31:09Cameron: So the fact that a gun just went off on them just completely hits
- 31:13Cameron: one of their side things, and you just see a side explosion
- 31:16Cameron: from the side and they just go.
- 31:23Cameron: Uh, but you see the look of it,
- 31:25Cameron: and then you see them like start
- 31:27Cameron: spinning and you see them just
- 31:28Cameron: fly straight into the ice and
- 31:30Cameron: you just see an implosion as you
- 31:33Cameron: see it just disappear into the
- 31:34Cameron: belt.
- 31:34Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I reached into the pocket and I pull out the transmitter.
- 31:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: The tracker?
- 31:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Yeah, yeah.
- 31:40Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And I say, and take this with you, too.
- 31:42Speaker 22: You just chuck it and it flies away.
- 31:47Cameron: And then you hop back in and you take it off.
- 31:50Speaker 22: And you go walking.
- 31:52Capt. Bretton Jermaine: And then I'm like, ah, I should have got tabs body and thrown it
- 31:56Capt. Bretton Jermaine: out while I was there.
- 31:57Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Oh, well.
- 31:57Cameron: And then when you get back to the room, the pilot.
- 32:00Barry Jermaine: That's me.
- 32:01Cameron: You realize it's that, oh, that
- 32:05Cameron: moment that you might have been
- 32:07Cameron: dreading.
- 32:07Cameron: This whole time is about to happen.
- 32:09Cameron: You have to fly the crew through the Cassini division, and it's
- 32:16Cameron: like a giant canyon in between the two rings.
- 32:20Cameron: And it is the most difficult part of this journey.
- 32:23Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Hey, Barry, did you see that?
- 32:24Capt. Bretton Jermaine: That was so cool.
- 32:25Capt. Bretton Jermaine: I blew up those bastards.
- 32:27Barry Jermaine: That was real neat there.
- 32:28Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Thank you.
- 32:29Capt. Bretton Jermaine: So, uh, you got this covered.
- 32:31Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Got your knees ready?
- 32:32Barry Jermaine: I'm ready.
- 32:34Cameron: Okay. You're gonna have to make two pulls for me.
- 32:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: All right.
- 32:39Capt. Bretton Jermaine: We got one right off the bat.
- 32:45Capt. Bretton Jermaine: You know the thing that I'm most scared of.
- 32:47Capt. Bretton Jermaine: If I'm being completely honest, is us bumping the table.
- 32:53Capt. Bretton Jermaine: Like pulling the.
- 32:54Cameron: So last time we played dread, one person didn't bump the table
- 32:59Cameron: when it was really rickety, and it fell over and we just
- 33:02Cameron: pronounced him dead instantly.
- 33:03Cameron: Sure, sure.
- 33:05Cameron: Like he just kind of slipped and fell and died.
- 33:07Cameron: Like that.
- 33:07Cameron: That's all.
- 33:08Cameron: It's not much you can do about it.
- 33:09Cameron: Like someone is the cause for it falling.
- 33:11Cameron: They have to die.
- 33:12Cameron: He successfully did it.
- 33:14Cameron: Dodging around in the shadows of the canyon.
- 33:18Cameron: You find it harder to concentrate than the last time
- 33:21Cameron: you did this run.
- 33:22Cameron: You keep hearing strange but familiar voices behind you.
- 33:25Cameron: The voices are quiet but clear.
- 33:27Speaker 23: I'm coming for you.
- 33:31Cameron: They whisper.
- 33:32Cameron: Before long, you see a bright
- 33:33Cameron: light ahead of you and rocket
- 33:35Cameron: toward it.
- 33:35Cameron: Just before you reach it, you
- 33:37Cameron: hear a deafening screech from
- 33:39Cameron: the communications array, and it
- 33:40Cameron: momentarily stuns you as you
- 33:42Cameron: reflexively go to cover your
- 33:44Cameron: ears.
- 33:44Cameron: Everyone does this.
- 33:46Cameron: Everything goes a little fuzzy, but in your pain you think you
- 33:49Cameron: see a glistening, ghostly image in front of you on an empty
- 33:53Cameron: station of a bridge.
- 33:55Cameron: Before you can react, it quickly
- 33:57Cameron: melts away, disappearing into
- 33:59Cameron: the canyon.
- 34:00Cameron: Suddenly, you explode out of the
- 34:01Cameron: mountain and the glowing expanse
- 34:02Cameron: of the B ring opens wide above
- 34:04Cameron: you.
- 34:04Cameron: In front of you, the welcome light from the sun glistens off
- 34:07Cameron: millions of giant ice crystals in the most beautiful sight a
- 34:10Cameron: harvester has ever seen.
- 34:12Cameron: You are brought back to reality
- 34:14Cameron: only by the soft beeping of your
- 34:16Cameron: sensors.
- 34:16Cameron: Hundreds of ice blocks are
- 34:18Cameron: detected all around you on your
- 34:20Cameron: monitors.
- 34:21Cameron: All of them are identified as
- 34:23Cameron: bearing rich mineral objects in
- 34:26Cameron: them.
- 34:27Capt. Bretton Jermaine: My gosh.
- 34:28Cameron: You have entered the B ring.
