The Triangle - First Season

Captain Taylor to the Bridge.

Captain Taylor to the Bridge.

Big money in whale meat.

We've done DNA testing...

on samples from Japanese and Korean markets.

The samples match the signature...

of these southern hemisphere whales.

They call themselves research vessels.

That's how they justify tracking the whales...

but they come out here to hunt.

Your friend doesn't talk very much, does he?

Meeno. Not much. No.

But he's probably the most passionate of any of us.

Attention, whaler...

you are about to violate international law.

Any attempt to harm this mammal...

will be a direct infraction of the Reykjavik moratorium.

Hey, guys!

Heads up!

God damn it!

What do we do?

Oh, my God!

Hang on!

What's happening?

Brace yourselves!

Help me.

Meeno, help me! Meeno!

Meeno!

Meeno!

No! No!

John! John! Take my hand!

John! Give me your hand, John!

Reach out!

Meeno!

Open it.

OK. That's just...

Man.

What is that?

- It's a cross. - A cross?

15th Century by the look of it.

The Coroner's Office has already asked to interview you.

Well, they'll never find an explanation.

I think it's time we brought them in.

And I will not accept a "No" answer. Not from those four.

Tell your mother that you're going. Period. OK?

Mom already said the exact opposite of you.

She's always saying the exact opposite of you.

OK. Look, honey. Is this important to you?

- Yes, Daddy. - Then let me talk to her.

He wants to talk to you.

Power's out again.

Tell your father we can't afford it.

Excuse me, I'm looking for a patient named...

Meeno Paloma.

Are you immediate family?

No. I'm a journalist.

The Observer. It's immediate family only.

No exceptions.

Thank you.

How exactly do you expect to pay for this?

I don't know, but the kid loves the harp...

and she's good at it, right?

So it's what, like, 50 bucks a week?

Howard, you can't get the alimony and child support together.

I... I understand why...

but don't grandstand for your daughter...

when you know you're not going to be able to.

Charge the damn lessons, OK? Use my MasterCard.

The one with the hot air balloons on it.

I don't think that's maxed out.

You don't have the money, Howard.

You don't... You don't exactly write...

for The New York Times anymore, in case you haven't noticed.

Damn it, Sally, just do it. Please.

Excuse me, folks.

Hope I'm not disturbing you. Mind if l...

Are you the gastro inter...

No, no, no. Don't bother, really, 'cause I'm not.

My name is Howard Thomas, and I'm a journalist.

And I, and my readers, would be extremely interested...

in hearing about what happened to you out there.

I thought Dr. McKergy specifically said...

Dr. McKergy didn't voice any objections to me...

about my stopping in, just for a few minutes.

Great. Thank you.

So, um...

a rogue whaling ship...

and you were in a Greenpeace 12-man raft, right?

What... what exactly happened?

The whaler was...

They were firing on a gray, uh...

Uh, female.

Then, suddenly...

it was... it was like...

something was...

churning the water.

Some... force.

Some violent force...

destroyed the whaler.

And... and then... and then it hit us.

Hmm. Violent force, huh?

And you were, what, about 50 miles out?

Sargasso Sea?

It's also known as the Bermuda Triangle.

I... I never said anything about the...

Oh, no. Relax, relax. You don't have to.

I will.

Good people died out there.

Mr. Thomas!

Yeah?

Mr. Thomas. My name's Ackerman.

Aron Ackerman. And I'm...

Wow. Well, I'm just a huge fan of yours.

I think you're a truly fantastic journalist. Truly.

Thanks.

I've got something for you.

Oh, come on. Are you...

She's serving me again?

I just talked to her. She didn't mention this at all.

No. This is nothing like that, sir.

Nothing like that at all.

Well...

Copy that, Base.

- Professor? - What?

All right. Are you reading the velocity sensors?

5-5-5, Professor.

- Full array? - Across the board.

Love you, luv. You newbies, don't start the recorders...

until my tailbone has crossed the threshold.

Shake it off and zip it up, Professor.

We're approaching center spoke.

What's my splash factor?

Looks like you'll be landing over open marsh.

We got recovery fan boats standing by.

That's Florida State Conservancy land down there.

You'll probably get busted.

We're center spoke. Right now!

All right, everybody. Eyes wide.

You snooze, I lose!

This is one small step for man...

one giant leap for mankind!

Thanks, guys. You're awesome. Totally awesome.

Bruce Geller.

The incredible Bruce Geller.

Need any help with bail...

there's a number in there you can call.

Hey, who the hell are you? How did you know where to find me?

Check the other three.

He's not in any pain.

Somebody has taken him.

They haven't harmed him.

He's wearing a... red shirt.

Dark red shirt. There's a stain...

What kind of stain on the front? It's...

It's chocolate. I smell chocolate.

Who's this?

This guy Stan something-or-other.

Used to be some big lost kid finder.

He's offered to help.

There's a van. It's a... very dark van.

Brown... No.

No, it's black. It's very...

Yeah, definitely black.

And there's a red stripe on it.

The driver of the van is...

I see gold. I see...

He's wearing a gold chain.

Damn it, if I could just see a landmark or a signpost.

The van is stopping.

Mommy?

Oh, Felicio!

Here's your kidnapper!

Way to go.

Mr. Lathem.

It isn't your domain, Emily.

It doesn't matter whether it's my domain.

This is a B.T.W. safety issue.

I observed it, now we have to deal with it.

Below the water line safety is my domain, Dr. Patterson...

and the drill coils we're using are operating well within...

spec tolerances for depth and pressure.

Well, then this 780 tells me that you're either a liar...

or a liar. Look at it. Something caused it to torque.

We're within specs. This was a fluke.

If we have to shut down to investigate...

Look, we're talking about men's lives here.

Those men's lives. Something caused this.

We owe it to the frontliners to find out what it was!

Look, Emily, you're a pretty good deep ocean resource engineer...

When you hired me, you said I was one of the best you'd ever seen.

Yes, well, now I'm firing you.

What? On what grounds?

Safety.

You're firing me for bringing to light a potential life and death...

No, it is your safety I'm referring to.

- Oh! My safety? - Don't listen to her!

She's crazy! We want to work!

Section 21, subparagraph B of your contract...

if I feel I can no longer assure your safety as a woman on board this rig...

Look, they don't want to rape me, they want to... kill me.
