What the...

Put it on the main monitors.

We need to send a security team

down there now, Captain.

Captain, I'm getting

multiple flat lines across the board.

Good God,

they're being slaughtered.

- By what?

- I'm going down there now.

Not until I know what the hell is happening.

Chic, get someone on the com.

I want a sit-rep ASAP.

Hold on, baby.

We're going home.

I've raised one of the dig crews.

Ishimura, can you hear us?

Something's down here,

killing everyone.

My dig crew has changed.

I think there's something down...

Help us, God damn it!

This is Ishimura.

We are reading you.

Who is killing everyone?

- Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Dig team, come in.

This is Ishimura, come in. Over.

Start scanning frequencies.

Don't f*** with me right now.

Get on the horn and get me the colony.

Captain, we need to call for help.

We don't have the forces

to protect the ship.

I don't need to remind you

that this is a restricted system,

and we're not supposed to be here.

You don't.

But the circumstances have changed.

My orders haven't.

Then at least let's contact the church.

- They must know about...

- About what?

The effects of the Marker are like nothing

documented in the religious texts.

And your crew is being wiped out

as we speak.

I have a feeling that we have at least

something very dangerous down there,

and we need guidance.

- Do you think they know?

- Who?

The crew.

Most of the key officers

are sympathetic to the church.

Maybe a third of the crew

are with the church. Why?

We're going to abandon the colony

and return the Marker to Earth.

It's the only thing to do.

I cannot afford a mutiny on my ship.

Sir, I need to take a team down there.

At the very least we need to know

what we're dealing with.

Denied. No one is allowed

on or off the colony.

You're condemning innocent people.

You want me to put the entire ship at risk?

Is that your brilliant idea?

Captain Matthius,

we've got an incoming shuttle.

Just picked her up on radar.

She's close.

Lock the bay doors on every level.

They're survivors.

Maybe they can tell us

what's happening down there.

Do what I say, and do it now.

Shuttle Seven, this is the Ishimura.

You are ordered to return

to the surface immediately.

Do you read me?

You cannot land on board the Ishimura.

- Over.

- F*** you, Ishimura.

Landing, crashing, or shot down.

Pick one.

But there's no way in hell we're going back.

Captain, the shuttle just

slipped through Bay 17

before we could secure the doors.

Get down there now.

Arrest everyone on board that shuttle

and quarantine them.

You sure you don't want me

to shoot them first?

Eyes up, people.

What exactly are we
