VICTORIA:
Well, the hydro rigs

are taking all the water.

Once we're gone, they'll have

nothing but dust and radiation.

JACK:
This is bullshit.

We won the war.

Now we have to leave.

Two more weeks, Jack.

Then we'll be on

our way to Titan.

Yep.

That drone is out

there somewhere.

We just have to find it.

Without a beacon, that's like

finding a needle in a haystack.

So we go to our ground game.

Tower, I've located 172

down a sinkhole.

No visual, but I can hear it.

Tet's so far off angle,

I can barely see you.

How's it look?

It's good, it's good. There's no

sign of scav activity on top.

Tet's offline in 15 minutes.

After that, you're on your own.

VICTORIA:
Mission,

this is Tower 49.

Jack has located drone 172.

Engaged in recovery now.

Requesting backup

to his location ASAP.

I've got a visual on Drone 172.

Jack?

What the hell?

Sh*t.

Ha!

Jack!

Tech-49, Jack Harper.

Jack Harper, Tech-49!

Hey!

Oh, no.

Come on. Not my goddamn bike!

JACK:
"How can a man die

better Than facing fearful odds."

"For the ashes of his fathers

And the temples of his Gods."

VICTORIA:
Jack?

Yep, I'll be right there.

VICTORIA:
How does 109 look?

- Can it fly?

- Barely.

And without armor,

she's a sitting duck.

Well, I'll talk to Sally about

that shielding in the morning.

Okay.

Again.

What, Jack Harper?

Where did you get this?

It was growing in...

Come on, Jack,

you know the regulations.

I know you think I'm a stickler

but you have no idea

what kind of toxins

could be in something

like that.

- It's a flower, Vika.

- Yeah, that's not the point.

It's that we are

so close to the end,

and the last thing that we need

is you putting it all at risk.

Okay.

Every day,

you have to go down there

and see what was lost.

But we've done our job, Jack.

It's time to go.

I don't think they were

trying to kill me today.

The scavs.

They were trying to catch me.

Well, they can't have you.

Come on.

You should come with me

sometime, before we leave.

There's a place I found

I'd like to show you.

I'll show you something.

Hey, hev!

Oh, my God.

VICTORIA:
It was a six-stage meltdown

from inside the hydro rig's core.

It's offline permanently.

SALLY:
Tower 49, you have put

the whole operation at risk.

I need to know

exactly what happened.

VICTORIA:
Jack believes the scavs

weaponized one of the stolen fuel cells

and got it into the suction.

SALLY 1 Tower, hold.

Tower, I've got a rogue signal in Grid 37.

Are you seeing this?

Yes.

JACK:
It's gotta be scav.

It's not one of ours.

Jack, the signal is

being directed off-planet.

On my Way-

Tower, our logs show you are missing

an additional nine fuel cells.
