Dark Matter

Previously, on Dark Matter .

There's only one way off this rock,

and that's by shuttle.

And what would you want in return, Nyx?

We're not leaving you behind.

It's a bad idea to have a cop on board this ship.

Tell me what it is you're after.

Like I said before, it's valuable.

That's all you need to know.

If you want the people who are really responsible,

you have to keep me alive.

You're the one who pulled the trigger.

For now, that's good enough.

When I fight, it's like things slow down.

I can guess my opponent's moves.

Again.

How 'bout a break?

I fight by instinct, by feel.

If I repeat the moves too much, it works against me.

So, you feel any better?

Now that you've taken care of Jace Corso?

I cannot allow myself to be satisfied

by one small act of revenge.

Why not?

Because there are so many more that are necessary.

You never consider just letting it go?

Putting it all behind you?

No.

What about you? You never speak of your past.

Is it because you let it go? Put it all behind you?

No.

Time to go back in.

I know this is hard on you.

It's hard on everyone.

But it's our responsibility to use the gift we've been given.

We are changing things for the better.

Not just for us, but for everyone.

Stand by for FTL.

Stand by for FTL.

You can't leave...

Watch me.

We'll find you...

He'll find you...

Hello, Two.

You wanted to see me?

I found evidence that Arax was using

the subspace link when he was in control of the ship.

He deleted the comm logs, but by tracking the power usage

I was able to identify specific times that the array

was active.

Is something wrong?

No, I just couldn't help but notice.

New look?

I thought this was more appropriate

for everyday wear on the ship.

More like an ordinary Android?

Perhaps "ordinary" is not the right word.

No. Probably not.

The ability to pose as human could prove useful,

so for now, I've retained the upgrade.

But while I'm on the ship...

You just wanna be yourself.

Precisely.

I've kept the outfit just in case.

You wanna tell me more about this comm?

The delete function makes it impossible

to replay previous transmissions,

but it does leave behind fragments of data.

I was able to piece together an image

of the person Arax was speaking with,

and run it through facial recognition.

Who is she?

Her name is Alicia Reynaud.

She's corporate elite.

On the boards of half a dozen companies,

all of which are at least partly owned by Ferrous.

Guessing she didn't get that far

by playing by the rules.

You think she's the one who had my friends

killed over this?

It's possible.

Well, if she wants it that bad,

she must know what it is.

Let's just go find her.

Get some answers.

I doubt she'll be volunteering any information.

We'll insist.

It might not be as easy as that.

Her headquarters is practically a fortress.

And well out of range

of our current fuel reserves.

We would need to restock before we took on

something like this.

What do you suggest?

An op. The kind we used to pull.

All right, now you're talking my language.

Good old-fashioned heist?

So, who we knocking off?

Actually, I was gonna ask for suggestions.

I might have something.

Before I got nabbed, I hitched a ride on a freighter.

Takes a regular route in a system nearby.

I know where it stops.

So?

Well, I did a little snooping around

while I was on board.

Highly valuable cargo.

Small crates, lightweight.

Easily transported.

Okay, what are we talking about?

Shadow.

What's that?

Are you kidding?

Protase 130?

Stop making me ask "What's that?"

Shadow is, the street name.

It's a synthetic hallucinogen.

A party drug.

It's the latest thing.

Do we really want to get into that?

It's a quick and easy score.

Which is exactly what we need.

Or am I wrong?

Drugs?

Technically illegal, but the GA's

been looking the other way.

And why do you think that is?

It's what people want.

It's what the corporations want.

It keeps people pacified, distracted.

Look, you are not the only one on this ship

that doesn't wanna be a pawn in the system anymore.

But one step at a time.

We need the money.

You know what, Three and Four don't want you

on this op anyway.

Then why do you care what I think?

We've been down this road.

I'm not doing it again.

If I tried to turn you in, I'd be arrested myself.

I'm not sure that would make a difference.

They'd kill all of you.

You know I couldn't be a part of that.

Not good enough.

If you're gonna stay on this ship,

You're okay with this.

Otherwise, we let you off at the nearest station.

Their shields are disabled, but likely only for a short time.

They're firing back.

We'll draw their fire until you're on board.

Roger that.

Here we go.

You sure about this?

You worry too much.

I've been practicing.

Wow. Seriously?

Learned that one the hard way.

Nice.

What do we got here?

Stun weapons.

Decent charge capacity,

if you don't boost the levels too high.

Take 'em.

Seriously?

We don't wanna kill anyone if we can avoid it.

That should keep them out of this area

for a little while.

Storage compartments are that way.

I'll go down here.

I'm pretty sure there's an infirmary.

I'm with you.

You know this ship pretty well.

I already cased it.

What the hell is this?

Hey, Nyx, what is this place?

Hey, I said, what is this place?

Who are all these people?

This is my brother.

Two, come in.

Looks like we got what we came for.

Haul as much as you can back to the Marauder.

I'll meet you there.

Roger that.

You better start talking.

I'll explain everything once we get back to the ship.

Now you want me to trust you?

I didn't lie about the drugs.

You got your score.

It looks like you might have left out some details.

I couldn't take the chance you'd say "No."

All these people here are prisoners,

and I swore I'd get my brother out of here.

They've cut us off.

Blow the door.

Either shoot me or help me.

But whatever you're gonna do, you'd better do it soon.

Milo.

Milo, it's me, Nyx.

Milo, we're getting you outta here.

I knew you'd come.
