[ELECTRONIC CHIRPING]

[HALAN] Careful, your ship just crashed.

You're okay.

I just need the samples

and access to any data.

[GASP]

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

If I gotta get rid

of her, that's on you.

What are you gonna do, just

space walk out of here? Hm?

- My ship crashed!

- Or do you think I'm stupid? Hm?

The Crest isn't coming back for you.

When is ISA picking you up?

Aster, please

[SIGHS]

I saved your life.

[CLANKING]

[BART] Attention, your entry

to this beacon is unauthorized.

So, QTA, that's who you work for?

You're not here for a

g*dd*mn science project.

You're here to do steal

whatever Solomon found.

Huh? [GRUNTING]

I can't be alone anymore.

[TENSE STRING MUSIC]

[WHOOSH]

[WHOOSH]

[WHOOSH]

[CRINKLING]

[DARK MUSIC]

[ASTER] You think he's okay?

[HARMONY] Relative to what?

I want to get a look at

whatever made him collapse.

I'll see what I can find.

I'm not sure Halan's

condition will become clearer

no matter what we see.

[ASTER] Well, at least he's stable.

[HARMONY] Well, his

PTSD is under control,

but as for his stability,

I recommend keeping a w*apon handy.

- Aster?

- Mm-hmm?

Look at this.

[STATIC]

The samples trigger it.

[STATIC]

That's the only explanation there is.

[BUZZING]

[BART] What's happening? I'm confused.

Please, tell me what's happening.

[VOICE ECHOING] You're dreaming, Bart.

You need to wake up.

My memory is not functioning.

It's disordered. That's all.

What's happening?

m*rder most foul.

Wait! I remember this!

Bart, you were quoting Shakespeare.

It's how Solomon taught

me to speak properly.

He said Shakespeare would cure me

of my "leaden mechanical drone."

Now, it's part of my reboot protocols.

Hm. How thoughtful of him.

[BEEP]

And how are your reboot protocols?

[STATIC]

Bartholomew?

Can you hear me?

How are your reboot protocols?

Fit as a fiddle, as the Bard might say.

Though the nightmare of

being silenced again

I'm sure it was trying.

Yes, but fear not, I am ready

to resume control of my beacon!

Bart's ready to resume his duties.

Shall I restore his permissions?

[HALAN] I vote no.

Well, he's been jammed

up all day, you sure?

Yeah, I think I deserve a few days

without hearing that

guy's voice in my ear.

You heard him, Harm.

[BLEEP]

Got something for you.

The beacon security ring, finally.

[CLATTER]

Something wrong?

- You see this, right?

- Yeah.

Tell me I'm not imagining it.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

It's the same.

It's not a lie, Halan.

It's all connected.

[♪♪♪]

[CHUCKLES]

"May cause side effects."

[LAUGHING]

If everyone knew it got you high,

no one would get anything done.

My God. Sit here all day.

How's your, uh everything?

I don't know, I can barely feel it.

- Mm, boop!

- Ow!

[LAUGHING] sh*t, I'm sorry!

What was that?

- [GIGGLING]

- Is that your real laugh?

I don't know! I don't know, you just

- you look like a dartboard.

- A what?

You know, one of them

Okay, I think you've

had enough of this GWB.

- No, no, no.

- You know what, maybe you need

- to step away from this.

- Make me.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

How'd you get that?

Mm. That's, um

That was from my mum.

She, uh

she told me a story about what it meant.

How special it was.

Hm. That's nice, a reminder.

A reminder not to end up like her. Dead.

Alone. [CLEARS THROAT]

With nothing.

That took a nasty turn.

Yeah, went pretty dark, sorry.

- Geez.

- [GROANING]

You know what, get back into the GWB.

Yeah, come back, come back!

Deep breaths, deep breaths.

[INHALING] Deep breaths.

Get it. Mm.

So, Solomon Halan.

- Yeah.

- Halan, right?

Mm-hmm.

[GROANING]

How about that?

She said, smoothly changing the subject.

- What, that?

- Mm.

Don't know.

You know, I always wondered,

what was going on with this guy.

Did he get his ticket punched or

- Did he make it back inside?

- Who knows?

What do you think?

Think something different every day.

Today?

[SIGH] Today

I think he got crushed.

[LAUGHING]

- Ah

- Poor guy.

Poor guy, just a little help.

Mm.

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

[CRINKLING]

[CLATTER]

[WHOOSH]

First burial detail?

Yeah.

You did good.

I'm glad it's over.

Don't worry, it happens

every once in a while.

Nothing to worry about. Bart? Lights.

Bart?

Uh, you said you

didn't want to hear him.

- Oh, yeah. Still don't.

- Ha.

- Hey, Harmony?

- [BEEP]

[HARMONY] Yes?

- Could use a little help.

- [HARMONY] Working on it.

[HALAN] You should

put in for combat pay.

[ASTER] Uh, I intend to.

[HALAN CHUCKLING]

QTA are pretty good at

setting things right.

Even with AWOL soldiers.

Oh, you mean the same

people who sent Wreckers,

hacked the beacon, blew up your ship?

- No thanks, I'm good.

- That's one theory.

Seriously, if that's how

they treat their employees,

I don't want to know

what they'd do to me.

Don't you want to know

why you're having visions?

- Visions?

- Yeah.

That's what we're calling them?

Kinda sound more like nightmares.

Listen, the rocks, my

pendant, your bad dreams.

They're all connected.

I want to know why.

Don't you want to know why?

- Honestly?

- Yeah.

I just want to get lost somewhere.

Somewhere with real atmosphere.

- Oxygen?

- Yeah.

Yeah! White fluffy clouds.

- Rain.

- [GASPS] Rain!

I just want to stand under the rain.

[SIGHS]

You know, when I first

met you, I was convinced

you were a psychopath.

And I was convinced you were

an innocent ISA employee.

[SCOFFS] And now?

Now?

Now, I'm not so sure who you are.

[SIGHS]

I should check on the lights.

[HALAN CLEARS THROAT]

- Hey, Halan?

- Yeah?

Uh, wherever it is you want

to go, I'll get you there.

You sure you'll be the one to decide?

I'll figure it out.

I'll hold you to it.

[♪♪♪]

[LIGHTS POWERING UP]

Oh.

- You got the lights on.

- As best I can.

Everything below the living

quarters is still blacked out.

I can't go near the GWB.

Hey, could you ask Aster to come down?

Sure. I'll check the breakers

on the Docking Level first.

[ELECTRONIC CHIRP]

Bart, I could really use your help here.

[ELECTRONIC CHIRPING]

Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm

not allowed to change

your communication permissions.

You know, if you tried to

participate for a change,

- Halan might

- [BLEEPING]

Those Wreckers tore apart your beacon.

It was Halan and Aster who

[BLEEPING]

Halan did not k*ll Solomon.

I examined the data

of Solomon's accident

and the fact that it was

an accident is undeniable.

- [BLEEPING]

- Okay, distort the facts

all you want, it's not

gonna change anything.

- [BLEEPING]

- Okay, st

Since an offer of help

seems to be beyond your

capability or desire,

I'll say goodbye. Goodbye.

[WHOOSH]

[SMALL ENGINE RUNNING]

[FOOTSTEPS CLATTERING]

[ROOM POWERING UP]

[CLICK]

[ALARM SOUNDING]

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

What the hell?

[g*n CLICKING]

[GRUNTING]

[BART] Your entry to this

beacon is unauthorized!

[CLATTERING]

Attention, your entry to

this beacon is unauthorized!

[GRUNTING]

Attention, your entry to

this beacon is unauthorized!

[ASTER] Hey!

Hey! Stop! Both of you!

I said both of you!

[PANTING]

[WHOOSH]

- Who the hell are you?

- I work for ISA.

Well, he knows who we work for, Coley.

- Who's this guy?

- Halan.

You're trespassing.

What the hell, Aster?

Where's the Beacon Keeper?

Solomon? He's gone.

I suppose Harmony didn't update you.

Let me guess, you didn't listen?

You know how I feel about AI.

- And who's Halan?

- A friend.

[ASTER] Oh

Oh, I bet it hurts.

Yeah, when you poke at it.

Baby. Kinda serves you right.

Are you saying this is my fault?

Well, you sneak around.

Harmony could've helped you with that.

The place was dark, I thought

you might be in trouble.

Harmony would have told you I was fine.

So stubborn.

You want to explain why

you didn't report in?

Or say anything about

Solomon and Soldier Boy?

Mission's taken some unexpected turns.

I can see that.

I told you Halan saved

me from the Wreckers,

who by the way, said

they were hired by QTA.

- And you believed them?

- Yeah. Why not?

Because they're Wreckers, Aster.

So?

You telling me you know

nothing about the crash?

About the beacon being hacked?

If you didn't report in,

then how the hell would I know about it?

- Do you want another?

- No.

I'm sorry about the Crest.

That's horrible.

But this is the first

I'm hearing about this.

Aster, whatever happened here,

whatever you went through

you kind of brought it on yourself.

[SCOFFS]

How's that?

You had a hunch about the mission.

- Well, yeah.

- You demanded that

we be assigned to it.

When have we ever demanded a mission?

Good point.

Well, was it worth it?

[CHUCKLES LIGHTLY]

[CLATTERING]

[COUGHS]

[CLATTER]

[CLEARS THROAT]

[CLICK]

Ah, damn. We struck the mother lode.

That's a lot of rocks.

This glowy stuff. You

said this might not exist.

The glowy stuff?

Well, in theory, it shouldn't.

I don't care, because you

just earned us a huge bonus.

- We're rich, Aster.

- Hm.

We need to load all of this stuff up

and get off the beacon

as soon as possible.

I'll let Halan know,

'cause I offered him a lift.

He knows about the rocks.

He couldn't give a sh*t about the rocks.

And the money? Does he

care about the money?

Look, I said we'd give

him a lift, not cut him in.

Orders are we go straight to QTA.

That's not your call, Aster.

I made us rich.

You make the call for me.

I'll think about it.

[HALAN] Aster, I think you

better come up to Command.

[BEEPING]

We got a major dark matter

obstruction rolling in.

How long before the lanes go dark?

[BEEP]

Three hours. After

that, we're in a no-fly.

That's not long enough to

get all the samples on board.

[COLEY] How long are we socked in?

Four or five days, maybe. Hard to tell.

And you just found this out?

It's only a few more days.

Or we take off and stay

out of FTL until it clears.

I say we stay put.

Gives you two a chance

to get acquainted.

Play nice.

[FOOTSTEPS CLATTERING]

[SIGHS] Sounded like an order.

Sometimes she forgets who's in charge.

Hm.

- So, you're m*llitary.

- Yeah.

- How many tours?

- Seven.

Impressive. My father did five.

- Special ops. Wet work.

- Serious business.

I learned from the best.

Why are you on the beacon, Halan?

What did she tell you?

Something about your

ship running out of fuel.

A special mission.

She's usually a much better liar.

Yeah, well, it's a long story.

We've got the time.

We can talk about it on your ship.

I'm not sure I want to wait that long.

Aster insists that we take

you wherever you want to go.

Well, I appreciate that.

She seems quite fond of you.

Yeah. We get along.

You know, she's had

her whims, quite a few.

But nothing that would

interfere with her job.

No, you don't have to worry about that.

Her record's intact.

We're just foxhole buddies, that's it.

What about you two?

- We're close.

- Close.

- Did she tell you what I do?

- I think I have an idea.

Then you'll keep it in mind?

Self-defense is my default.

I want to know the

minute these lanes clear.

Oh, you will.

[♪♪♪]

Yes, you will.

[ELECTRONIC CHIRP]

[CLANK]

[BEEPING]

Hello, my name is Bartholomew.

I apologize for any

lag in my response time,

but I've been through quite the ordeal,

and my communication

I'm not interested.

I assure you there's nothing

I'd rather do than comply.

Unfortunately, you are not an employee

of the Interstellar Space Authority,

which would make you in violation

Oh, my God, you are a talker.

You know, I'm gonna make this easy.

Do as I ask, or I'll go

back into your root systems,

and I'll silence you for good.

I'd be happy to help

you in any way I can.

I want everything you got on Halan.

Are you friend or

I'm not gonna ask again.

Oh, I assure you, I can tell you

all about that murderous madman.

[TENSE MUSIC]

[GRUNTING]

[TAPPING]

[TAP]

[ASTER] That looks painful.

- Feels good, actually.

- Hm.

Your friend has combat training.

Well, all company managers do.

She finished first in her class.

- What does she manage?

- People.

Still should have been

able to take her out.

Especially in that g*dd*mn suit.

Well, that suit's way

more expensive than yours.

She'll be flattered you're impressed.

Yeah. She told me you two are close.

We are. Be grateful.

You okay? You look stressed.

[THUD]

- No, I'm good.

- Are you sure?

Mm-hmm.

All right, come here.

- Come on where?

- Come on, have a seat.

No, mm-mm, don't trust ya.

It'll feel good, all

right? Have a little faith.

As long as it's not any of that

[CLICKING TONGUE] nonsense.

Yeah, I'll spare you

the trouble. Have a seat.

- Do not strangle me.

- No promises.

All right.

Relax, close your eyes.

- How's that?

- Mmm

It's pretty good actually.

What's that for?

It's a pressure point.

Helps relieve anxiety.

Mm.

Feels good.

Told you.

Coley said she knew nothing

about QTA hiring the Wreckers.

But

She didn't seem that

surprised by it, either.

- [ASTER INHALES]

- [FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]

That feels so good, don't stop.

[SIGHS]

[♪♪♪]

- Hey.

- Hey.

There's nothing going

on with me and him.

- You'd tell me, right?

- Course.

Pick a side.

Wow. You're gonna let me choose?

[SIGHS]

k*lled someone.

One of the Wreckers.

I'm sorry.

But isn't that my job?

Well, I'm gonna have to

take half your paycheck.

[COLEY CHUCKLES]

You're gonna have to k*ll me first.

I know.

Hm.

There's something else.

Do you see it?

Yeah. You can put that away.

I know what the pendant looks like.

- It's exactly the same.

- It's similar.

It's identical.

- Look, if that's what you want to believe

- I mean, that must mean something.

I'm sure the company will figure it out.

You don't want to give

up the rocks, do you?

No.

Don't have a choice, do I?

No, you don't.

I'm hungry.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

[BEEP]

When were you gonna tell me he was AWOL?

That AI, Bartholomew. He's

a piece of work, that one.

Yeah, he's pretty annoying.

My father says there's

nothing lower than a deserter.

Well, it's complicated.

I'm sure that's what he told you.

Well, that's the truth.

And you know this how?

[SCOFFS] Because

Uh, somehow, we're connected, him and I.

- Hm, that's convenient.

- By the rocks.

You mean just the two of you?

It appears that way.

- Hungry?

- No.

Look, I appreciate what

you're doing for Soldier Boy.

But you're asking me

to go against my orders,

my training, my judgment.

- Well, I know what I'm asking.

- I like my job.

I get paid well. I'm good at it.

And you want me to

risk that for a runner?

No, not for him. For me.

Are you really gonna play that card?

Well, it's a good card.

One day, it's not gonna work.

But not today.

[CLINK]

Look, we should be celebrating.

Biggest score of our career.

Finally, something we agree upon.

- In your eye.

- Up yours.

The tiny little man.

[ASTER CHUCKLING]

He doesn't even know

he's gonna get crushed

by the big waves that are behind him.

- [ASTER] Coley!

- Huh?

- Come here.

- Hm?

Come here.

Okay, I'm coming to you.

That's it.

Oh.

Oh, yes. You know what

I'm beginning to think?

No, what?

Life on the beacon

has its compensations.

Mm. I should have brought

you up here earlier.

Yes, why didn't you

bring me up here earlier?

I don't know.

Is there a way to turn up the hum?

Sadly, no.

I already said yes. He can come with us.

Yeah, well, that has

nothing to do with this.

It's pretty to think so.

It's true.

- Aster?

- [COLEY] Oh.

- [CLEARS THROAT]

- Yeah, Halan?

Thought I'd find you up here.

Uh, well, you were right, Halan.

Excellent timing.

- Who turned on Bart's voice?

- [COLEY] Hm?

- Who?

- Who restored Bart's voice?

- Oh.

- Bart.

- That would be me.

- Mm-hmm.

- I think it's me.

- She did it.

I'm so sorry if I overstepped.

- Next time ask, okay?

- Okay.

- I will ask.

- [SNORTS]

[ASTER] All right, goodnight, Halan.

- [LAUGHTER]

- Goodnight.

He's so sour.

[ELECTRIC HUM]

[BEEP]

[SOFT MUSIC]

[ELECTRICITY POWERING UP]

[SIGHS]

[LAUGHTER]

- Ah

- Hey, you.

- How'd you sleep?

- Like a baby.

Did you decide where

you want us to take you?

Not yet.

Well, make sure it's not

too far out of our way.

I don't want the company

to get suspicious.

Oh, no, wouldn't want that.

[ASTER] Aw.

See, you two can get along.

I'm gonna cook tonight.

- Oh, you cook?

- Well, don't get too excited.

Ask Coley.

Hm.

[CLINK]

[♪♪♪]

[BEEP]

[WHOOSH]

[WHOOSH]

[BEEPING]

[WHOOSH]

[♪♪♪]

Doesn't add up. Harmony?

- [WHOOSH]

- Aster?

Is something troubling you?

Ten years. Suddenly expendable.

- It doesn't make sense.

- Is this about the Crest?

Perfect employee. Model record.

[CLATTERING]

What happened to your

ship was an accident.

[SIGHS] Was it?

[SIGHS]

Hm.

Okay.

Now, I'm worried.

[THUD]

[WHOOSH]

What are you looking for?

Can I help?

Only if you can hold a Kn*fe.

Maybe you should talk over your concerns

with Manager Coley.

Maybe.

Is there something wrong

between the two of you?

Should there be?

Answering a question with a

question is no answer at all.

[SIGHS]

- [CLATTER]

- There.

[CLATTERING]

You love a riddle, don't you, Harm?

- Okay, I'll leave you to it.

- Hey.

Don't say anything to

anyone at the company.

- Or Coley.

- I wouldn't dream of it.

Whatever you're looking for,

I hope you don't find it.

- [WHOOSH]

- Me too.

[BANG]

[RATTLING]

Ugh!

[RIPPING]

[SIGHS]

[CLATTERING]

[SIGHS]

[BEEPING]

What are you looking

at? Dark matter clear?

I just got a ping that's

consistent with my ship,

but it's been out of range

ever since Solomon took it.

It must be some sort of mistake.

Well, you've got a ride.

- Backup plan would be nice.

- Hm.

I know Coley's a hard-ass

but I'll make sure

you're coming with us.

[ASTER CLEARS THROAT]

So, the Dabo table's

getting pretty crowded,

but we were up, what, 11,000 credits?

- More like fifteen.

- Right, fifteen.

Anyway, I wanted to walk

out of there a winner,

'cause you know who

wins at Dabo? No one!

But Coley had a feeling.

Are you sure this is the

story you want to tell?

She said to bet it all

on Triple Over and I said,

"Only an idiot puts it on Triple Over."

But she said, "Do it." So, I did it.

Forty-five thousand credits later,

we walk out of there arm in arm,

respect and envy on everyone's face.

[COLEY CHUCKLES]

And then I didn't see

her again for five days.

- Four.

- Four.

As I recall, she was a pilot.

Freighter captain? Great cheek bones.

Or am I getting her confused with, uh

one of your other conquests?

[HALAN CLEARS THROAT]

You know, if this is story time,

there's something you

gotta know about Aster.

She'll always let you down. Hm?

Am I lying? 'Cause if I'm

lying, just say I'm lying.

- [DISHES CLINKING]

- What?

[COLEY SCOFFS]

She used to work for

these mining companies.

Mineralogist. Scam a stone

here and there. Small time.

I brought her to QTA. Partners.

Not that she would know

what that word means.

[TENSE MUSIC]

Aster uses people.

That's what she does. She uses me.

She dresses up nice,

but she's still just

street trash from Menelaus.

Okay. I've had enough.

Apparently so have you.

Hey.

Why'd you go AWOL?

Tell me. Why'd you run?

I don't know. It's all a blur.

Why rescue her and risk exposure?

Unless do you think that

maybe you wanted to get caught?

You wanted to be punished.

Did you ever think about that?

He saved the mission, Coley.

He saved himself.

'Cause that's what you do, right?

Bart, pull up the report.

[WHOOSH]

Official Report Concerning

Combat Operations on DX-113.

It says it all there. How you ran.

Leaving your squad flanked.

Most of them are dead because of you.

No, that can't be it. It's not true.

Let's see, what were their names?

Lambert, Maba, Ozell, Laurenzano.

Who were the rest?

Rashaan, Kim, Reyes.

[SHARP INHALE]

Jonas and Gashade.

Me and Gashade go way back.

[AIRCRAFT WHIZZING]

[MUFFLED SCREAMING]

My father would spit in your face.

[g*nshots]

Any real soldier would.

[SCREECHING]

Thanks for dinner.

[FOOTSTEPS CLATTERING]

You happy now?

It's time you saw each

other for who you really are.

[CLATTERING]

[HALAN] You know, for a whole year

I've been staring at

that poor son of a bitch.

It wasn't until right

now that I realized

I am that poor son of a bitch.

- What Coley said back there

- It's none of my business.

You've been lying to me

ever since you got here.

[SCOFFS]

It's my job.

I'm I'm not lying to you now.

Maybe you haven't changed

as much as you thought.

Maybe.

Not that I'm in any position to judge.

Whatever happened on that mission,

I know you're no coward.

You had a ticket off this beacon.

You could have left me

to die, but you didn't

They were my squad.

My responsibility.

They d*ed because I left.

[SOMBER MUSIC]

[SIGHS]

You were meant to come here. So was I.

That's bullshit.

Maybe you're right.

One thing's for sure

[SHARP INHALE]

I am not gonna get crushed by that wave.

[♪♪♪]

[WHOOSH]

Reporting in?

Letting them know we're

loading and leaving.

Keep 'em off our backs. Nice play.

- It's no play, Aster.

- We're socked in.

We're not engaging FTL until it clears.

So what, we're just gonna

fly around in circles?

Well, it'll get us the

hell off this beacon.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

[COLEY] I don't want to hear about

I don't want to hear about how

QTA is the source of all evil.

I don't want to have this conversation.

[ASTER] What about Halan?

[COLEY] Can we please

forget about Halan?

The mission's been upgraded.

[ASTER] Since when?

[COLEY] I guess your initial report

got someone to take a closer

look at Solomon's notes.

And they upgraded it to a C-File.

Why?

With a C-File, I know

best not to ask questions.

Anyway, your part of

the mission is over.

- It's cleanup time.

- Well, we're not cleaning up Halan.

Did he tell you how long

it took him to get here?

- Hm?

- No.

Four months.

[ASTER] Wow.

Do you know where DX-113 is?

No idea.

It's 84,000 star systems away.

You know what that tells me?

No.

- He's after the rocks.

- Oh my God. He isn't after the rocks.

It's not why he came here.

Not intentionally anyway.

[TENSE MUSIC]

Got a question for you.

How many oxygen canisters

are there on a Sleep Pod?

It's a simple question. How many?

Four.

Correct.

I found two extra on

the Crest Sleep Pod.

That means they knew the

ship was gonna explode.

QTA planned for it to happen. Right?

[COLEY SIGHS]

Okay, Aster.

You're right. It was a set-up.

Psych evaluation said that Solomon

wouldn't let you on board.

So, the company did what it does.

It stacked the deck.

It staged the accident,

forcing Solomon to rescue you.

Except Solomon wasn't here, was he?

Halan rescued me. You put me at risk.

You were never in danger for one second.

I made sure of it. Would

I ever put you at risk?

You seem to have no problem lying to me.

Even if you knew the company's plans,

I don't think it would have

stopped you from coming here.

Now, I'm gonna do my job.

Hey, hey.

Hey, come on.

Please.

[SQUISH]

I don't even know who you are anymore.

- Coley?

- It's just a trank.

[GROANING]

If I were smart, I'd make

sure you'd never wake up.

But I just don't have the heart.

Harmony!

[HALAN SIGHING]

Not very impressive, soldier.

It's Aster, isn't it?

[GROANING]

I don't blame you.

I've been making excuses for

her for the last ten years.

But you are a traitor.

- Gah!

- Oh!

Oh!

[TRICKLING]

Oh, Jesus

- I'm sorry.

- Did you, ah

You got me in the liver. Oh my God.

[PANTING]

I know you didn't mean this.

Okay, just go.

Get some patches.

Jesus Christ!

- [BLOOD TRICKLING]

- You're just standing there!

You could help me!

Why? Is it because of him?

[PANTING]

Harmony!

- [CLATTERING]

- Print.

Harmony! Print!

[WHIMPERING]

Help me. Help me.

Ah

- I'm sorry.

- Ah!

- Aster.

[ASTER SHUSHING]

I loved you, Aster.

I would do anything for you.

I'm sorry.

[SNIFFLING]

Anything.

Ah! Ah!

- Shh.

It's okay, it's okay.

[GARGLING]

Shh, shh
