Cargo

You were right. Earth won't make it.

Even the last ones who escaped earth arrived.

But there is no more place in here either.

The epidemics are spreading faster.

I'm not able to keep up.

The people are dying in my arms.

I applied as a doctor on a cargo ship.

Four years until we are there and 4 years back.

I'll spend most of the time in hibernation.

This single flight...

... and I'll have enough money to ...

... go to Rhea.

Then we'll finally be together again.

Did you hear my dear sister? I have to go.

I want to get to Rhea.

And finally see you and the kids again.

Dr. Laura Portmann?

Anna Lindbergh, first officer.

Welcome aboard.

Everybody listen.

Miyuki Yoshida, system administrator.

This loudmouth here is Vespucci.

Thankfully Prokoff isn't talking that much.

Dr. Portmann.

Station 42 will be upgraded to a transport hub.

It's in the Orth's Cloud, half way to Proxima ...

... and is in a stable orbit around RH278.

The autopilot is activated.

Because of all the recent terror attacks ...

... the temporary government ordered to have ...

... a sky marshal on every ship.

Damn snitches.

It is said, that the "Maschinen Stuermer" are ...

... preparing for major sabotage acts.

This ship is already decaying, no one would sabotage anything.

Lt. Samuel Decker. Space Security Agency.

We will seal the cargo compartment in 30 minutes.

If you want to get to know someone, better do it now.

At 0200 the engines will started.

At 0230 we will meet at the cryo chambers.

Have a good company.

According to resolution 278 of the RBS ...

... from now on there will be sky marshals even on cargo flights.

Just accept me as a part of the crew.

"This is an informational broadcast of the TSA."

"The threat of terror attacks has never been as present since the great collapse."

"Klaus Bruckner is still on the run after his latest terror attack."

"This man is responsible for the latest bombings ...

"... on the stations 20, 23 and 24."

"While he is claiming responsibility for the current attacks, ..."

"... he keeps on propagating the messages of the "Maschinen Stuermer"."

"We are living in machines."

"What are we producing? Machines."

"Our enemy is the TSA."

"There will be no peace as long as technology is ruling us."

"Down with the machines!"

"Down with the stations!"

"Because of the latest events, the TSA ordered, ..."

"... to ensure the safety of ship and crew, ..."

"... each flight to be accompanied by a security officer."

"Support the sky marshal on his duty and ..."

Listen everybody, this will be the order of shifts.

Each shift will take 8 and a half months.

I'll take the first.

Then Lindbergh...

... Yoshida ...

... Vespucci ...

... Prokoff ...

... Portmann.

At the end to deploy the cargo, Lindbergh again.

And if someone should face any problems, ...

... feel free to knock on Deckers tank.

"Dear Laura,"

"I'm sending you some sunshine from Rhea."

"I haven't had you in my arms for such a long time ..."

"It's not good that you are doing cargo flights."

"We are worried."

"People are telling each other that the "Maschinen Stuermer" ..."

"... are becoming more and more aggressive."

"But what do you expect us to believe from four year's old information?"

"I don't even want to think about what could have happened in the mean time."

"I really hope that you are doing well."

"Please stay in touch."

"See you soon."

"I miss you."

Dear Arianne,

I miss you too.

It is so unbelievable cold in here, you couldn't imagine.

I'll show you some pics of the mess I got myself into.

Well... Just two months left till the end of my shift.

We are four light years away from earth.

And are transporting material to build a station,

so that one day, we will be able to fly to Proxima.

It has been said that there are inhabitable planets too.

I really want to be with you.

Please don't worry,

I'm doing fine.

See you soon.

What are you doing here?

Someone opened the cargo compartment.

I was automatically woken up.

Why did you open up the gate?

You know that it is strictly forbidden to enter the cargo compartment.

Something is inside the port.

That's impossible.

Something is behind the port.

We have to wake the crew now.

No, the hibernation phases must be kept intact.

But why don't you show it to me?

The rules say, that under exceptional circumstances ...

... we have to wake up the captain.

It seems as if Dr. Portmann isn't able to handle loneliness very well.

I'm sorry that we've awakened you.

Let's just hope that you are sure.

The suits have been thrown around because of the over pressure.

The compartment was open for several times throughout your shift.

I hope for you that this was just a technical failure.

Let's go.

The cargo compartment is split up into 9 sectors.

You take A to C.

You take D to F.

And I'll take the rest.

Shouldn't we stay together?

I don't want to stay overnight.

We'll stay in contact...

The containers are all locked.

That is correct, you should know that Decker.

Didn't find anything suspicious 'till now.

Except that we are not fully loaded. Answer.

Me neither.

Roger. Keep searching. Over.

Lacroix, here Laura.

Lacroix!

Fuck!

Decker?

Decker!

"What happened?"

I think Lacroix has fallen down.

"What? Where are you?"

In sector E4-20.

I'm going down to sector G.

"I'm coming!"

Lacroix!

Do you hear me?

Lacroix, do you hear me?

Is he alive?

We must get him out of the cold now!

The gate!

According to the regulations, I'll be in command of the ship.

Prokoff, Vespucci fix the gate.

The cargo compartment must be sealed as soon as possible.

Yoshida, you'll verify all entrys in the main computer ...

... and check for suspicious activities.

And you will examine Lacroixs corpse.

I want the exact cause of death.

Start recording.

Multiple spline fracture.

Craniocerebral injury.

Supposedly caused by a fall from a severe height.

Time of Death: Some minutes after the impact.

I thought that we were just transporting construction materials.

That's what I was thinking too.

Whats wrong with the gate?

The fuck is. Everything is stuck and the gears seem to be broken too.

It must have been here.

Sealed.

I have Lacroix's batch.

A child.

It's a child!

All containers are full of humans.

"Vespucci, Prokoff."

Yes?

"Please come to sector F7-21."

Why the heck do we transport humans to Station 42?

Fuuuuuuuu

Thats really ...

Shit!

Get moving!

Go go go!

Laura!

Laura!

What's going on in here?

The containers are full of humans.

The cargo is the shipping companies business.

Lacroix was murdered.

Lacroix opened the door and because of the ...

... containers over pressure he had been pushed in to the abyss.

Someone set the containers in motion and we got almost killed.

The containers are moving automatically, to prevent freezing.

That's the reason why it's forbidden to be in the cargo compartment.

Somebody is on board of the ship.

He killed Lacroix and almost us too.

Did you know that there were humans in the containers?

This tank will be returned immediately.

This is a human!

As a doctor, I am responsible for the people on board.

And I will examine this girl now.

Exactly what I was thinking.

And furthermore I am authorized to inspect any incident on this ship.

The containers with the tanks may have something to do with Lacroix's death.
