I think now's a good time

to go back to the ship.

I think now's a good time

for you to take a deep breath.

We have a job to do,

and I need you.

You are the best, right?

By far.

Okay. Okay.

There's, um--

There's still activity.

It's that way.

Marauders.

Sir, I can't raise

Lt. Mason.

Jake, please, I'm scared!

- Lyra, jump!

Marauders.

I know.

Stay here.

Where are you going?

Jake, come in. Jake?

Jake?

Jake!

Are you all right?

We had every right

to claim the wreck.

That land does not

belong to Eos.

Ben.

Nor did the lives

of my tribesmen,

yet you sent them

from Mars just the same.

We did not kill

your Marauders.

Their wounds were

inflicted by gunfire.

Colonist weapons.

Colonist duplicity.

Our forces were securing

a hazardous crash site...

when they were

attacked unprovoked.

As is always the case

with Colonists,

you speak only

in half truths.

Know this

to be the full truth--

Any further incursions

into my territories...

will be considered

a hostile act.

Any Colonist found

trespassing on Marauder lands...

will be summarily executed.

That is a promise

I will honor.

The Matriarch

is telling the truth.

It wasn't Marauders.

That group on the Hydra?

They were soldiers

in white fatigues.

And one of these soldiers,

she was a girl.

Ben, look at me.

It was her.

Who?

Lyra.

This girl,

when she saw me,

it was like

she knew too.

She's alive.

My sister is alive.

This isn't a wish.

This isn't a dream.

It's a fact.

Can you accept that?

I didn't think you partook.

It's water.

Mind if I sit?

Shouldn't you ask the owner

since you helped trash

this place the other night?

Ben smoothed that over.

He could always talk,

that Ben.

Talked me into doing stuff

I didn't wanna do.

I wonder, can he talk you

out of something you wanna do,

no matter how stupid?

He shouldn't have

called you.

Maybe he thought

you'd listen to me.

He wouldn't think that.

I've seen your sister, Jake.

Just the other day,

I saw some girl in town

wearing her smile.

Saw her eyes peering out

of someone else's face.

Her silly laugh coming out

of some child's mouth,

loud like a mine drill.

And for a second,

time freezes,

and she's alive...

with my Sam and we're--

Then the second hand moves,

and she's dead.

They both are.

Marauders killed them.

This girl you saw,

it wasn't her.

You need to accept that.

You've done a great job

accepting things.

I don't drink because

I haven't accepted it.

I drink because I have.

Let it go.

Hi.

What are you doing here?

Well, good morning

to you too.

I'm serious.

I'm serious too.

I really want you

to have a good morning.

And it is not gonna be
