00:01Previously on Foundation
00:06There are reports of Anacreon and Thespian war cries before the explosion
00:12You're going to die, and it won't be enough for what you did
00:17It will all work out, Paige
00:19Do you ever wish there was another way?
00:21Every day, so
00:25Gail, you have to leave. Now!
00:28Remember to count primates
00:3186,981,000
00:58Old Returns
01:01How did you do?
01:02The First Returns
01:04I don't say any other way
01:06What was happening?
01:08As the First Returns
01:09The First Returns
01:11The First Returns
01:12Was evidence that they did not get close to it
02:15It scared me. I was comfortable in darkness.
02:20It was the idea of an event horizon.
02:26Venture into that horizon, and the gravitational pull prevents you from turning back.
02:33Escape becomes... impossible.
02:35Gail, time for morning rides.
02:54We speak the words, and the words make us see.
03:19Welcome forth this child among you, that he should be blessed, loved, and cherished, heard, and seen.
03:34One with a sleeper's words.
03:36Upon awakening.
03:38Upon awakening.
03:40Theodomini, we must check the university for a forbidden activity.
03:49Acolyte dawning.
03:52Theodomini said there were lights in the windows last night.
03:54But the university's abandoned.
03:58Look.
04:02Theodomini says...
04:03Theodomini Engine entend the rightful mycket of hisще.
04:03Theodomini says...
05:35Quite another path.
05:37You can't be here, Mr. Sohn.
05:41The Seers condemned this building.
05:43Heretical, right?
05:45All analytic learning goes against the faith of the Awakening.
05:49What do you do with Gail?
05:51You always had a sharp mind.
05:52Stop.
05:54Just drop the books and go.
05:55If the Seers find out you're here, they'll kill you.
06:00Yes.
06:01When a planet wants you dead, you die.
06:05Run.
06:06They're just words on a page.
06:08Are they?
06:10Kylie's book of folding.
06:13She dedicated her entire life to writing it.
06:17Chaos theory.
06:19Furthering knowledge is the most noble work of humankind, Gail.
06:24Remember that.
06:26Take it.
06:27I'll hold it for you.
06:35This cleanse will pass Gail.
06:39The ties that rise will ebb.
06:41Not in our lifetime, but someday.
06:43Kylie, all things have a cycle.
06:48After destruction.
06:50Rebirth.
06:51Knowledge gives us ways to survive the destruction.
06:54If the rebirth arrives, the floods...
06:56A warning from the sleeper.
06:59A challenge we must overcome in order to prove worthy of his awakening.
07:03No.
07:05And you know it.
07:06No.
07:07Gail?
07:07You need to leave.
07:15Leave.
07:15We overmined the volcanic vents.
07:18We melted the ice caps.
07:20We did this.
07:21Not your slumbering god.
07:22There is no we.
07:24I'm not on your side.
07:26I'm not a kindred soul.
07:30Are you willing to test that conviction against Kylie's numbers?
07:36No?
07:37There.
07:42Mr. Dr. Sorin.
08:03Listen.
09:04For this, you will be cleansed.
09:24This will not stop the sea from rising, or the algae blooms from dying.
09:50Only knowledge can do that.
12:54Bless and be seen, O sleeper.
12:57Thankful for your wisdom and dreams.
13:04You're welcome.
13:06I want to send a Tatby message.
13:32I was told you could help.
13:34No, Sears don't break any off-world contacts.
13:38Unless it's church business.
13:40I'll pay.
13:45Fifty cartons.
13:50Where are you when the Tatby?
13:51Trantor, Stirling University.
14:04The Sears are saying someone on Synax has entered an Imperial math competition.
14:18You have to stop this, Gale.
14:20You're putting us all at risk by pursuing this.
14:22Let it go.
14:24You have to stop this, Gale.
15:41Greetings, Miss Dornick. My name is Harry Seldon.
15:46I am a professor at Stirling University on Trantor.
15:49I would like to offer you my congratulations on your novel resolution to the Abraxas conjecture.
15:57Since you've published your solution, several circles within academia have seen fit to cast doubt upon your achievements.
16:03The conjecture has stood for centuries, after all, confounding the greatest minds.
16:08I suppose the fact that the answer has come from someone on Synax, the young woman at that, has made it all the harder for them to accept.
16:18But the beauty of math is that it is pure.
16:21I have studied your solution, and I would like to offer you my support by validating your proof.
16:30It is ingenious, elegant, and true.
16:35Bravo, Miss Dornick.
16:38I expect the doubting will cease soon.
16:43You have a remarkable mind.
16:45I would consider it a privilege if you would come to Trantor as my guest.
16:50You could walk my students through your solution.
16:52I know they'd be fascinated to learn how you achieved it.
16:57Undoubtedly, you'll hear through official channels soon enough.
17:01But, well, I'm rather hoping you'll accept my invitation first.
17:10Thank you, sleeper.
17:13Someone from our village communicating with Trantor.
17:22It's a disgrace.
17:23They have to be punished.
17:24Yeah, yeah.
17:27Gail.
17:32It's coming.
17:34Even raising everything Tinrod won't save us the map is undeniable.
17:39There'll be hurricane winds, massive flooding.
17:41Are these the sleeper's words speaking through you?
17:43No.
17:45It's math.
17:49I solved the proof.
17:51I'm the one the seers are looking for.
17:56Harry Selden invited me to Trantor.
17:58Come with me.
17:59Trantor.
18:01The machine world.
18:05I'd rather my daughter die.
18:13As a child, I had nightmares of black holes.
18:26I used to imagine what it would be like, drifting towards something miraculous.
18:33Bearing witness to something most minds could never even comprehend.
18:42Then realizing, too late, that you had reached the point of no return.
18:47What have you done?
18:49What have you done?
18:52What have you done?
19:22Even waking up, the terror continued.
19:36Like an echo whispering.
19:52Diminishing in volume forever, but never quite dying out.
20:09Diminishing in volume forever, but never quite.
20:39Diminishing in volume forever, and never quite.
20:45Diminishing in volume forever, and never quite.
20:49Hello? Is anyone there? Hello?
21:00Please, please, is anyone there?
21:11Please, please.
21:15Let me out of here!
21:17Let me out!
21:24Let me out!
21:26Please, let me out! Let me out!
21:28Help!
21:30Please!
21:34No!
21:47What?
21:49Uploading cryo-session data. Initiating reach-false-arrival protocol.
21:54Hello?
21:55Hello?
22:08Hello?
22:09I love...
22:11Let me out!
22:12What?
22:13Tell me, what?
22:14I want to see you soon.
22:16You can do four hours in the air.
22:17I must admit you may think that if you don't want to die, and you don't want to die, at the end of this day, you're just not too much.
22:20There are four hours in the air that you drink, but you are just not too late.
22:22You're just not too late.
22:23I don't want to cryo-session-session-over-end.
22:54Hello?
22:58Command not recognized.
23:02What is this place?
23:04Identification required.
23:06This is Gail Dornick. Where am I?
23:10What is this ship?
23:12Who's the captain? Where is everyone?
23:18Just me.
23:24Okay.
23:28I need to send a message to Lewis Pyrene.
23:34Hail the deliverance.
23:36The deliverance was decommissioned on 12, 11, 12,072 EI.
23:42What year is it?
23:52How long was I asleep?
23:5412,102 EI.
23:58Your cryo session duration was 34 years, 223 days.
24:04What the hell are they doing?
24:18Spectral cloaking.
24:20They're camouflaging it.
24:22But we already know it's here.
24:36They're not hiding it from us.
24:40They're not hiding it from us.
24:43I just put a witch.
24:44Fyke nij.
24:46Fyke nij.
24:47Hakti nij.
24:49Hakti nij.
24:50Hakti.
24:51Fyke.
24:52Fyke.
24:53Fyke.
24:54Fyke.
24:55Fyke.

25:05Fyke.
25:06Fyke.
25:07Fyke.
25:08Fyke.
25:09Fyke.
25:10Watchman status.
25:11We're firing at the western fence.
25:13I count 50 here in the east.
25:17I count at least that to the west.
25:20Hold your ground.
25:21They're just trying to rattle you.
25:23Yes warden.
25:24I'm a scientist.
25:29If you don't think that you'll be a dead scientist.
25:31Your choice.
25:47Your Grand Huntress is a liar.
25:49Everything she feels, it's all curdled inside her.
25:53She comes to destroy.
25:55No matter the cost.
25:57Underestimate the rest of us warden.
26:02We all bear Nacrian scars.
26:05Farah's different.
26:07Her game is over.
26:08No next move.
26:09Only a last one.
26:11You may have us outgunned.
26:13But you're desperate.
26:15Scared.
26:16And desperate people make mistakes.
26:18Is that?
26:32An imperial ship jumping in.
26:34I'll be damned.
26:44Their eggs are soda.
26:54It's an imperial ship orbiting the planet.
26:55Just stand by.
26:56I knew the empire would come for us.
26:59I'm sure Harry did as well.
27:06Do you think they're gonna save us?
27:11Status.
27:12Approaching terminus commander.
27:13Pull up a wide spectrum planetary scan.
27:15I want population.
27:16Power plants.
27:17Weapons.
27:18Primary power source is a geothermal cell.
27:20Ten clicks north.
27:21City's protected by a standard imperial issue energy barrier.
27:24Commander, there's something you should see.
27:25There's three transport ships near that geothermal cell.
27:28Non imperial to make.
27:29An Akron Corvettes.
27:32Keep aiming for geosync over Terminus City.
27:34But be ready to divert to a landing trajectory.
27:36Open up encrypted channels.
27:37You can't sir.
27:38Not enough bandwidth since we don't have the communications buoy for relay.
27:41Try public frequency then.
27:43Let's ring their bell.
27:44Say hello.
27:51Terminus City and Foundation Director Louis Perrin.
27:54This is Commander Cray Dorwin of the Imperial vessel Aegis.
27:57Media report, please.
27:59I'm here.
28:00I'm here.
28:01Louis Perrin, Commander.
28:02Director of the Foundation.
28:04We formally request the Empire's aid.
28:06The Empire will grant you aid.
28:07However, we require information first.
28:09I'd like to speak to your Minister of Defense.
28:12We are a small outpost commander.
28:15We have no armed forces.
28:17Uh, Director of Intelligence, then.
28:21Who knows the movements of the Anakreon troops?
28:24That'll be me, Commander.
28:26Salva Hardin.
28:27Warden of Terminus.
28:28Uh, Commander.
28:29You should know that the Anakreon Kingdom has confessed to destroying the comms buoy
28:33in the hopes that it would trigger an Imperial response.
28:35Strongly advise you stay clear until we can determine why they want you here.
28:39Confessed?
28:40Who spoke for them?
28:41We have their leader in custody, Commander.
28:43Farrah Cain.
28:45Their Grand Huntress.
28:46Have her brought to the tower.
28:47I want to lay eyes on her.
28:49Of course, Commander.
28:50That's a mistake, sir.
28:51Farrah's been angling for the tower every-
28:53Hello?
28:55Hello?
28:56They're jamming a local network.
28:59Ten minutes, Director.
29:00I don't want this Huntress in front of me.
29:03He thinks we're a planet as simple-minded rustics.
29:06Who cares what he thinks?
29:07We shouldn't move her!
29:08Your daughter may be willing to defy the Empire based on speculations, Murray.
29:12But I am not.
29:14Why wait until Narakil comms?
29:16They were listening in.
29:18They know we're about to move her.
29:30The field relays are in the tower.
29:34Get everyone back to the city.
29:36I need to get back to the brig.
29:37Why?
29:38Farrah's taking down the fence!
29:59I need to send a communication.
30:01Authorization required.
30:02I need to send a message.
30:04Authorization required.
30:05Just...
30:06Authorize me!
30:07Command not recognized.
30:10Set course for terminus!
30:11Authorization required.
30:13No!
30:15Think.
30:16Think, think, think, think, think, think.
30:18Uh...
30:20Okay.
30:24Um...
30:25Am I authorized to run a search?
30:27Anything in the Imperial public record.
30:29Okay.
30:30Okay.
30:31Search.
30:32Population of terminus.
30:33Okay.
30:34Search.
30:35Population of terminus.
30:36I made it.
30:37Oh.
30:38Okay.
30:39Oh.
30:40Okay.
30:41Oh.
30:42Okay.
30:43Um...
30:44Search.
30:45Harry Selden.
30:46Um...
30:47Search.
30:48Harry Selden.
30:49Death.
30:50Good evening.
30:51It is with a heavy heart that I record this message.
30:52On the 8th of the 8th, 12,068.
30:57Year Imperial.
30:58Harry Selden was...
30:59Harry Selden was...
31:00Harry Selden was murdered.
31:01He died from fatal stab wounds administered by his foster son, Rache Foss.
31:03And Foss's accomplice, Gael Dornick.
31:04No.
31:05No.
31:06No.
31:07As per Selden's mortality directive, his body will be ejected from this spacecraft.
31:11In a casket he himself designed.
31:12To the 8th, 12,068.
31:13Year Imperial.
31:14Harry Selden was...
31:15Harry Selden was murdered.
31:16Harry Selden was murdered.
31:17He died from fatal stab wounds administered by his foster son, Rache Foss.
31:20And Foss's accomplice, Gael Dornick.
31:22No.
31:23No.
31:24As per Selden's mortality directive, his body will be ejected from this spacecraft.
31:29In a casket he himself designed.
31:36In accordance with the project's line of succession, it falls to me, as senior councilman,
31:44to assume command of the Foundation.
31:46I believe with all my heart that every citizen upon this ship was chosen for a reason.
31:52We will preserve and build upon Harry Selden's legacy.
31:56We will devote our lives to protecting the Empire and all its citizens from the coming fall.
32:06The plan continues.
32:09May the light never dim.
32:13Stop.
32:14Stop!
32:15Search...
32:30Rache Foss.
32:32Warning.
32:33We designate Harry Selden's flight function.
32:37Rache.
32:38Why?
32:39What was it?
32:40Premeditated.
32:41We know that you were arguing with Dr. Selden the night of his death.
32:54You were questioning his... his forecasts just before.
32:58Implying that they were unstable.
33:01For God's sake, say something.
33:04The man loved you like a sun.
33:07He lifted you out of the heat sinks.
33:09He saved you.
33:11As he would have saved us all.
33:15What could possibly have possessed you to...
33:18The girl's door make put you up to it.
33:22She had nothing to do with this.
33:24It was all me.
33:25No, you don't have to protect her.
33:26It wasn't me.
33:27I did what I had to do.
33:29Why?
33:30Speak!
33:31Do you even understand what it is you've done?
33:34I understand more than you.
33:36Then you admit...
33:38That of your own free will, and with full knowledge of your actions...
33:43You murdered Harry Selden.
33:45Do you understand what happens next?
33:48No.
33:49No.
33:50No.
33:51No.
33:52No.
33:54No.
33:55No.
33:59Sir, it's...
34:01It's...
34:02Execution.
34:05Oh!
34:06No.
34:07No.
34:08No.
34:09No.
34:10No.
34:12No...
34:13No.
34:15No.
34:16No.
34:17No.
34:18No.
34:19Any final words?
34:22I know it's hard.
34:26I know what I've done seems incomprehensible, but...
34:30You can't lose faith in the plan.
34:34Ever.
34:36You have the gall to tell us not to lose faith.
34:43You can still solve a puzzle.
34:45Even with the peace, miss.
35:15Will, will, will.
35:18I'm leaving you alone.
35:20I'm leaving you alone.
35:22It's fine.
35:24The truth is, Will.
35:27Don't be afraid of this.
35:30I'm leaving you alone.
35:32I don't.
35:34To the other side, of course, will.
35:38That is what I do.
35:40A huge fool.
35:42I don't think we should stop here.
36:12What is she doing?
36:18What's happened?
36:19You should have trusted your warden.
36:24What is that?
36:27What is she doing?
36:49Holly!
36:50Leilo!
36:51You kids get back to the city now, you hear?
36:53Do as I say!
36:56What is she doing?
37:06What is she doing?
37:12What is she doing?
37:32What is she doing?
37:48What is she doing?
38:04All things have a cycle.
38:06After destruction, rebirth.
38:09Knowledge gives us ways to survive the destruction until the rebirth arrives.
38:14Computer, did the ship just conduct a trajectory correction maneuver?
38:33Are we beginning an orbital insertion?
38:35Affirmative.
38:36So we're slowing down.
38:38Which means we're approaching a destination.
38:42Identify our destination.
38:44Authorization required.
38:46Am I authorized to see a star chart?
39:02How about inertial reference points?
39:05Can you show me all celestial sphere locations of all quasars in direct line of sight?
39:11Highlight the cloverleaf quasar.
39:16Simple optical navigation.
39:17Okay.
39:18Do we have direct line of sight to Swenion 214, Austus 11, Hudson 8053?
39:24Affirmative.
39:25Show them.
39:28Now show me the angular separation of the cloverleaf and these three stars.
39:33Okay.
39:34Display a cone with a 23.5 degree half angle.
39:38Also display the central axis.
39:40Computer, can you trace out the surface of the crystal positions of the apex?
39:45Another cone, 30 degrees half angle.
39:48And give me a third cone, half angle of 62 degrees.
40:00You're right here.
40:02Which puts us in the Argo sector, near the Yuling stream.
40:06Now, what direction are we heading in?
40:08Authorization required.
40:10Uh, do I have access to Stellar Spectra?
40:13Affirmative.
40:14Yes.
40:15Okay.
40:16Show me the current and nominal spectra for Swenion 214, Austus 11, Hudson 8053.
40:23Relativistic Doppler shift.
40:25Bain too old smart, you stupid ship.
40:28Okay.
40:29Uh.
40:30Display a vector.
40:31Orientation in the galactic frame.
40:32Bearing 289 degrees.
40:33Elevation minus 5.3 degrees.
40:37There.
40:38Is that our current velocity?
40:40Authorization required.
40:41Um, is the vector parallel to the long axis of the Raven?
40:42Negative.
40:43Is the vector anti-parallel to the long axis of the Raven?
40:44Negative.
40:45Is the vector anti-parallel to the long axis of the Raven?
40:46Affirmative.
40:47Okay.
40:48So, that last course correction.
40:49Flip the ship.
40:50We're slowing down.
40:52And our final destination.
40:53This.
40:54Yeah.
40:55Yeah.
40:56Is the vector.
40:57Is the vector parallel to the long axis of the Raven?
40:58Negative.
40:59Is the vector anti-parallel to the long axis of the Raven?
41:03Affirmative.
41:04Okay.
41:05So, that last course correction.
41:09Flip the ship.
41:11We're slowing down.
41:13And our final destination.
41:19This.
41:22Yeah.
41:24And our final destination.
41:38Anytime, the sun opens the direction.
41:42It is, you may seem to at the end.
41:46We will see the oxygen occur.
41:47And this you may not.
41:52They go lets you likely й Roll and do that.
41:53Okay.
41:54Access to primary destination is restricted to Rache Foss.
41:58Doesn't make me sense.
42:01I have to see with my own eyes.
42:03The place is meaning 18159.
42:33Janakon!
42:59Fall back!
43:01Fall back!
43:02Go!
43:03Go!
43:13Go!
43:14Here!
43:14Go!
43:15Longus, go!
43:16Get out of here!
43:18Hurry up!
43:24What happened?
43:25She smugged a fuel disruptor into the building.
43:27Where is she?
43:28It's a curation storage.
43:30She has your mother.
43:31They've taken down the Imperial fence, sir.
43:42Cancel geosync.
43:43Commence landing.
43:44Maximum speed.
43:44We may plan it fall in five minutes.
44:14I want you to remember this.
44:16The Anakryons brought down the Star Bridge.
44:18A hundred million dead at the hands of these barbarians.
44:21I know this is personal for some of you, and that means it's personal for all of us.
44:26Right here, warden.
44:35You okay?
44:35She needs the crew manifest from the deliverance.
44:37So that's what you're really after?
44:39We need help commandeering an Imperial ship, and we weren't going to get it until we had a knife to your people's thoughts.
44:44So now put that rifle down.
44:46Or what?
44:47You shoot her?
44:48You honestly think that's an incentive?
44:49Mothers are mothers.
44:51You won't fire.
44:52Because there's an invisible core between us?
44:54Everyone says it, but I've got to tell you, Farrah, I've never felt it.
44:56You want me to throw the Foundation away to save her?
44:59Cry all you want, Mom.
45:01Try to feel it.
45:02Like when I was four at the vault and you crawled on the ground.
45:04I was terrified.
45:05Do it, Farrah.
45:06Shoot your leverage and let's start over.
45:08Even.
45:08Shut up!
45:09Or we'll both be orphans.
45:10Fine!
45:17Mom, I am so sorry.
45:18You were telling me to drop, yes.
45:20Drop and crawl.
45:20That's right, Mom.
45:21That's all you meant.
45:22You did good, Mom.
45:40That's all you meant.
45:54I'm so sorry.
45:59Oh, my God.
46:04I'm so sorry.
46:06You were telling me to drop, yes.
46:09Oh, my God.
46:39Ah!
46:41Ah!
46:43Ah!
46:44Ah!
46:45Ah!
46:46Ah!
46:47Ah!
46:48Ah!
47:06Easy, easy.
47:08You can do this.
47:09Breathe.
47:10Just breathe.
47:23Okay.
47:24Destination should be here.
47:27Here.
47:28Nothing.
47:29Oh.
47:30Ugh.
47:31Ugh.
47:32Ugh.
47:33Ugh.
47:34Ugh...
47:40Ugh.
47:41Ugh.
47:42Ugh.
47:43Ugh.
47:44Ugh.
47:45Ugh.
47:46What are you hiding?
47:48I know something's out there, but nothing the naked eye can see.
47:56What could be out here that I can't see?
48:02Filter for infrared.
48:05Okay.
48:07High dwarf.
48:09Supergiant.
48:11There you are.
48:14The dark star.
48:16That's why I couldn't see you.
48:21Dark star.
48:25We're hovering. Altitude 1,000 meters.
48:28Open external comms.
48:31Stand down!
48:33Get out of here! Get out of here!
48:46Give it to me.
48:54Take a look, Warden.
48:55There!
48:56They understand what it is like to lose everything.
48:59To watch your whole life burn. I really do.
49:02The M.A.C. took everything from me.
49:05And now, we dig everything from them.
49:08If you're people, we have nothing to do with Starbridge.
49:11If Anacreon was innocent, how could you do the same thing to Terminus?
49:15That's just it.
49:17Terminus isn't innocent.
49:19Selden's predictions inflamed the Empire.
49:24Because of what your prophet said, my whole world burned.
49:29Watch.
49:31Yes.
49:32The M.A.C..
49:34…to be otro.
49:35Tell me!
49:36The M.A.C.
49:38Two children!
49:39The M.A.C.
49:40The M.A.C.
49:41Two children!
49:42The M.A.C.
49:43One children!
49:44Mary!
49:45Hi!
49:46The M.A.C.
49:47One children!
49:49entre her.
49:50Is that a Shifu?
49:51The M.A.C?
49:52The M.A.C.
49:53This man.
49:54The M.A.C.
49:55The M.A.C.
49:56The M.A.C.
49:57One children!
49:58Here we go!
50:11If you can see the sky, you are trespassing on his eminence's sovereign territory.
50:20By the authority of Emperor Kleon XIII, surrender immediately or face death.
50:26Take it easy.
50:28Take it easy.
50:31Take it easy.
50:32Take it easy.
50:34Take it easy.
50:38Fire anti-missile!
50:41Too close for intercept.
50:45Oh, my God.
51:15Does it hurt any less?
51:19Your brother?
51:20Your family?
51:21You know what?
51:22I thought I might feel empty.
51:24But I think it does hurt less.
51:27You listen to me.
51:29Clay Meach just came.
51:33She'll stay quiet.
51:45There's only one habitable planet that orbits a dark star, and there is no way I'm going
51:55there.
51:59Computer, I know our destination is Helicon.
52:02Change course.
52:04Helicon is Harry's home world.
52:07They think I killed him.
52:09Change course.
52:10Computer, are you there?
52:13Hey!
52:43Harry?
52:45Harry?
52:47Harry?
53:13Harry?
