The Way of Water

2022 -

The forests of Pandora...

hold many dangers.

But the most dangerous thing...

about Pandora...

is that you may grow to love her too much.

We sing the songcords to remember.

Each bead...

a story in our life.

A bead for the birth of our son.

Neteyam! -

Neteyam!

A bead...

when we adopted our daughter, Kiri.

Born of Grace's avatar.

A daughter whose conception was a total mystery.

A bead...

for the 1ˢᵗ communion with Eywa.

The People say...

we live in Eywa...

...and Eywa lives in us.

The Great Mother...

holds all her children...

in her heart.

Happiness is simple.

But who would've thought a jarhead like me...

could crack the code?

Before I knew it, we had 4.

When we sent the Sky People back to Earth...

a few of 'em stayed.

Science guys, loyal to the Na'vi.

And then there was Spider.

Spider, Spider... - Spider!

He was just stuck here.

Too young for a cryo-capsule.

You little wild man. -

See you, Norm!

Orphaned by the war, he was raised by the lab guys.

Spider, take your spare!

I'm just going to the village!

He wasn't part of our family.

He was like a stray cat.

Just always around.

Inseparable from our kids.

To Neytiri...

he would always be alien.

One of them.

Took a few years to get the language...

through my thick skull.

But now when I hear it...

it might as well be English.

I hate you!

Well, I hate you times infinity, Lo'ak!

Penis face!

Hey! Hey! That's enough.

Don't make me come over there.

He's gonna come out...

from behind those big rocks.

There he is.

There you go. Go get it!

Yeah!

Hey, Neteyam, the mighty fisherman.

There you go. Good boy.

Wow.

Wow, that's a big one.

By the rocks.

Right where you said.

How tall is he?

He's... that tall. He's tall!

Goes by too fast.

Like a dream.

Kiri. Bro, come on.

Come on.

Smile, skxawng.

Happiness is simple.

Like date night. -

Time away from the kids.

Whoo!

But the thing about happiness...

it can vanish in a heartbeat.

A new star in the night.

It could only mean 1 thing.

Ships. Decelerating.

And Sky People returning.

Pulse 168. He's coming up...

Yeah, here it comes.

You're just fine.

Just lie still.

Stay calm.

Yep. Pupillary reflex is good.

Get that out of his face.

Hey! - Colonel...

can you hear me?

Colonel?

You need to lie back down, sir.

Sedate him! Sedate him!

Get outta here!

Go, go, go!

Get security!

Grab him! - Grab him!

Hold him!

Calm down!

Colonel, stand down!

Colonel, it's me!

Corporal Wainfleet!

Lyle?

That you?

Yes, sir. And Z Dog.

And Fike.

I'm all right. Let me go.

I'm all right.

Well...

ain't this a bitch.

Stand by. 2 minutes to Pandora insertion.

Secure for Delta V.

All right. Umbilical's clear.

Pulse ox 89.

In case you haven't figured it out yet...

you're Colonel Miles Quaritch.

Only younger, taller, bluer...

and not nearly as good-lookin'.

In 2 hours, I fly a mission...

against the Na'vi's stronghold.

The powers that be thought it prudent...

that I do this backup just in case.

And if you are watchin' it, well...

it means that I did get my ticket punched.

Hey, Parker...

just what the hell am I supposed to say now?

Just remind him how this works.

Who? - Here.

So see this? This is all your memories...

and your personality. - Right.

We're gonna send this back to Earth...

All right, I got it.

...where you're growing in a lab as we speak.

We're gonna imprint you with it, and then...

I got... Hey, hey, hey.

Am I doin' this, or are you doin' this?

Hurry it up. Hurry it up.

Anyway, the idea...

is to get the minds of the saltiest on-world operators.

Yeah, like Corporal Wainfleet over there...

...and your humble narrator into...

Oorah.

...recombinant bodies.

You're a recom now, Colonel...
