00:00You
00:21Sapphire yes silver is here with me
00:25Good
00:31He's going to get us into the capsule this one here I understand
00:37sapphire
00:39silver I
00:40Shall according to silver. This is the governing one the main one. This is where the power source lies
00:47Silver's right of course. He always is
00:52Tell me more about the crew of the second capsule
00:56You
01:07All irregularities will be handled by the forces controlling each dimension
01:15Transuranic heavy elements may not be used where there is life
01:20medium atomic weights are available
01:22gold lead
01:25Copper
01:27Jet diamond radium sapphire silver and steel
01:35Sapphire and steel have been assigned
01:42Tell me more about the crew of the second capsule
01:45Come with me. Well, how can I just follow my voice? I'll talk to you, but it's a different the same
01:51It's the same plan the same layout
01:53Just step into your hallway
01:55You
02:00How long
02:03Soon
02:07As long as you're back in here and she's back in her communication room in four minutes and
02:1532 seconds
02:17I
02:23Quite a work of art, isn't it?
02:27But I suppose you'll prefer something a little less decorative
02:32Something more
02:34Coldly efficient. Are you through the door?
02:40Yes, this is the downstairs hallway of a farmhouse
02:44Now turn right and follow the corridor
02:51This capsule is disguised as just one floor of a farmhouse
02:56None of the windows or entrance doors are functioning. Everything is sealed. There's no way in or out
03:05The sun will set in an hour or so here what about that
03:08The same
03:12It wasn't an invasion force after all
03:15Well, if it was this crew wasn't a part of it
03:20What do you suppose they were doing
03:23You're part of a survey team
03:26What were they survey? I don't know something very harmless the survival of the family structure into the 20th century or something like that
03:34Sorry
03:39Now there's something very strange just here
03:42What was once glass or glass ornaments has been turned into silicon dioxide sodium carbonate and calcium oxide
03:50Sand soda ash and lime. Yes, the glass is reverted to its original silicate state
03:55Anyway
04:25I
04:52Mean
04:56There are five bodies
04:58to answer
05:01Where they attack
05:03No, I would say they died by their own
05:07But something drove them to it you'd be sure of that
05:10Whatever is in the main capsule
05:12Yes, it's responsible for this
05:15So far yes in a few seconds. We're going into that main capsule
05:21We could be too late again nevertheless, we're going in there's still the time for us that crystal to be dealt with yes
05:30Go back to the communications room right now
05:38There must be a screen in there
05:40Some kind of a screen. Yes, is it activated? Yes it is
05:45Then go to that screen stand by it and wait
05:51You
05:57As we'll all be going in together all three of us at the same time
06:20You
06:50You
07:20You
07:50You
07:52You
07:58I'm ready steel. I'm ready to go in down just a little bit more perfect
08:07Steel tell her to stay close to the screen you tell her yes. Why not stay close to the screen so far
08:15Wait something's changed
08:18What do you mean changed? Well? Do you remember the last time we were on the roof?
08:21Yes, and I said I sensed the child was gone, but it was no longer in there
08:24I remember that yes, well now the two adults seem to have gone
08:28And the child it's still not there. It's still not in there
08:33Well who is in there the third one the other adult
08:37That's all
08:39That's the only person left in the capsule
08:41What about the power source the the crystal
08:45Nothing it's as if it's dead
08:48I could always try to know
08:51Whatever you do don't make contact with it again
08:56Are you ready? Yes still because I think I know what it might be trying to do
09:02I think I know what it might be trying to do
09:06Right it had better be quick because if it catches us halfway wouldn't need to do that what all it has to do is to switch
09:12off that screen
09:14How would you like to be transported 1500 years into the future?
09:18Tell suffer it's now
09:21now suffer
09:32now suffer
10:03Yeah
