00:00This might be useful.
00:10I've seen us!
00:16I don't care what you do, no one gets across that bridge!
00:21System failing. Critical system damage. Backup also. Engage.
00:24System failing.
00:40Nice shot!
00:54Need some cover!
00:59What less to worry about?
01:11What the hell are you waiting for? Just kill them!
01:18Because of shot ready.
01:24No!
01:29We go!
01:48What the hell am I paying you for?
01:55All in...
02:01I'll tear you apart!
02:02I'll tear you apart!
02:20That's all of us.
02:21I'm sending you reinforcements.
02:27I'll tear you apart!
02:28I'll tear you apart!
02:32Then stay down!
02:43Damn it! Finish them off!
02:58Shepard!
02:59But...
03:00You're dead!
03:02I got better.
03:04And now you're here to kill me.
03:08You really are paranoid, aren't you?
03:10Don't patronize me, Shepard.
03:13Charming as ever.
03:15I'm sure you find this all very ironic.
03:18First you take care of my sister, and now you're here for me.
03:22Well, you made it this far.
03:24Now what?
03:26You really think I'm here to kill you?
03:28Do you have another reason for destroying my tower?
03:30Decimating my security?
03:32I'm just looking for someone.
03:34You expect me to believe that?
03:36Is it credits? Is that what you want?
03:38Just tell me your price. We can make this problem go away.
03:39All the credits in the world won't make this problem go away, Nasana.
03:45Who the hell gave you the right to play God?
03:48I may not be perfect, but look at you.
03:51We both kill people for money.
03:53What's the difference?
03:55You kill people because you think they're beneath you.
03:57They're in your way.
03:59I kill people when they leave me no choice.
04:01You've got a choice.
04:03You don't have to do this.
04:05I can tell you.
04:06What?
04:07I heard something.
04:08Damn it.
04:09Check the other entrances.
04:12You stay put.
04:14When I'm finished dealing with this nuisance, you and I are going-
04:17Don't.
04:18Who will die?
04:36Who will die?
04:37Who will die?
04:42Impressive.
04:43You certainly know how to make an entrance.
04:57I came a long way to talk to you.
05:00One moment.
05:02Prayers for the wicked must not be forsaken.
05:05She certainly was wicked.
05:09Not for her.
05:10For me.
05:12The measure of an individual can be difficult to discern by actions alone.
05:16Take you, for instance.
05:18All this destruction.
05:19Chaos.
05:24I was curious to see how far you'd go to find me.
05:28Well, here I am.
05:34How did you know I was coming at all?
05:37I didn't.
05:39Not until you marched in the front door and started shooting.
05:43Nisana had become paranoid.
05:46You saw the strength of her guard force.
05:48She believed one of her sisters would kill her.
05:51You were a valuable distraction.
05:54Let's cut to the chase.
05:55I need you for a mission.
05:56Indeed.
05:58You're familiar with the Collectors?
06:00By reputation.
06:02They're abducting entire human colonies.
06:05Freedom's progress was their handiwork.
06:07I see.
06:09We're going after them.
06:11Attacking the Collectors would require passing through the Omega-4 relay.
06:12No ship has ever returned from doing so.
06:14They told me it was impossible to get to Ilos, too.
06:15They told me it was impossible to get to Ilos, too.
06:17A fair point.
06:19You've built a career on performing the impossible.
06:20This was to be my last job.
06:22I know.
06:24I know.
06:26You've built a career on performing the impossible.
06:28I know.
06:29I know.
06:31I know.
06:32I know.
06:33I know.
06:34I know.
06:35I know.
06:37This was to be my last job.
06:43I'm dying.
06:47Low survival odds don't concern me.
06:50The abduction of your colonists does.
06:53You're dying?
06:54Are you contagious?
06:55How long do you have?
06:57If you're interested, we can discuss it on your ship.
07:00The problem isn't contagious, and it won't affect my work.
07:03I hadn't heard that.
07:05Is there anything I can do?
07:07Giving me this opportunity is enough.
07:11The universe is a dark place.
07:13I'm trying to make it brighter before I die.
07:18Many innocents died today.
07:20I wasn't fast enough, and they suffered.
07:23I must atone for that.
07:25I will work for you, Shepard.
07:27No charge.
07:32I think you've made it possible.
07:34The universe goes through.
07:35It's not for aliens but there.
07:36This has been stuff too much for siihen or not.
07:37These are facts.
07:39There are safety issues now.
07:40That's not in the same place.
07:42Yes.
07:43B
07:47I've heard impressive stories, Krios.
08:05Sounds like you'll be an asset to the team.
08:08That is, if you're comfortable having an assassin watch your back.
08:11I've accepted a contract. My arm is Shepard's.
08:15Uh-huh. Don't know about you, but I'm loyal to more than my next paycheck.
08:19Obviously he is too. He's doing this mission gratis. What's your concern?
08:24I don't like mercenaries. An assassin is just a precise mercenary.
08:28An assassin is a weapon. A weapon doesn't choose to kill. The one who wields it does.
08:34Where shall I put my things? I'd prefer someplace dry if anything is available.
08:38The area near the life support plant on the crew deck tends to be slightly more arid than the rest of the ship.
08:44Ah, an AI. My thanks.
08:55He seems quite civil.
08:57We need all the help we can get. He's not what I expected of an assassin. He may surprise you.
09:03Yeah. And he may not.
09:33He may...
09:34He may have participated in aoup.
09:36No.
09:37He may have happened.
09:38We sawvisorktoringo in that patient band.
09:39ecology of your intervention.
09:40Everyone is feeling verdadero mua.
09:41Feel together with someaboers.
09:42But I think anybody can contribute.
09:43I'm not surprised when they asked me.
09:44You see myself.
09:45Hey truth.
09:46I respect it.
09:47I'm notusted, but I agree with occasionally.
09:48You, too.
09:49Actually, it was able to establish a 이후keld.
09:51I don't know.
10:21I don't know.
10:51I don't know.
10:52I don't know.
10:53I don't know.
10:54I don't know.
10:55I don't know.
10:57I don't know.
10:58I don't know.
10:59I don't know.
11:00I don't know.
11:01I don't know.
11:02I don't know.
11:03I don't know.
11:04I don't know.
11:05I don't know.
11:06I don't know.
11:07I don't know.
11:08I don't know.
11:09I don't know.
11:10I don't know.
11:11I don't know.
11:12I don't know.
11:13I don't know.
11:14I don't know.
11:15I don't know.
11:16I don't know.
11:17I don't know.
11:18I don't know.
11:19I don't know.
11:20I don't know.
11:21I don't know.
11:22I don't know.
11:23Shepard, we caught a break.
11:24I intercepted a distress call from a Taurean patrol.
11:28They stumbled onto a collector ship beyond the Corlys system.
11:31The Taureans were wiped out, but not before they crippled the collector vessel.
11:35I need you to board that ship and get some hard data on the collectors.
11:39Find us a way to get to their home world.
11:41Hard to imagine how a Taurean patrol could take out a collector ship.
11:45Reports indicate the hull's intact, but all systems seem to be offline.
11:49They could be making repairs as we speak.
11:52I'm not saying it won't be dangerous, but we can't let an opportunity like this slip by.
11:57If they had a patrol out there, why aren't the Taureans sending a recon team in?
12:00They will.
12:01Eventually.
12:02But I intercepted the transmissions.
12:05In the meantime, we're feeding them false reports.
12:07You're close enough that you can be in and out before the Taureans learn the truth.
12:11Are you sure this information is good?
12:13Information is my weapon, Shepard.
12:16It's good.
12:17Send me the coordinates and I'll take care of it.
12:19Already sent.
12:20Once you're aboard the ship, establish an uplink with EDI.
12:23She'll mine their data for information regarding the Omega-4 relay.
12:27Good luck, Shepard.
12:31Coordinates punched in.
12:32Let's go find us a collector ship.
12:41On that, I'll show you where we are.
12:45As is also interested in him.
12:47What?
12:48What?
12:49In the comments.
12:49What?
12:51Yes?
12:53Where does he find us?
12:55Edit in.
12:56Julio changes themselves.
12:58Lately everiends again?
12:59It's only the city worshipped.
13:01The bay reaids again?
13:02No.
13:03I have landed.
13:03Then we say ding in.
13:04When did it last?
13:05Level nine not even 넣en up.
13:06Let's go.
13:36we have a visual on the collector ship commander very low emissions passive infrared temperatures
13:50suggest most systems are offline thrusters are cold that thing is massive how the hell did the
13:57Turians take it out
14:08late our scans do not detect any hall breaches on the side facing us I detect no Mass Effect field
14:14distortions it appears the drive core is offline rendezvous in 30 seconds commander good luck

14:57Unusual ship design. Hard to track lines, angles. Disturbing.
15:17Looks like a giant insect hive.
15:20Penetrating scans have detected an access node to uplink with collector data banks.
15:25Marking location to your hardship computer.
15:27Shepard, I've compared the ship's EM signature to known collector profiles. It is the vessel you encountered on Horizon.
15:49Maybe the defense tower softened it for the Turians.
15:51Could find missing colonists aboard, if they're still alive.
15:55These are the same containers the collectors used on Horizon. Only these are empty.
16:06Horrible. Trapped in pods. Completely at the mercy of the collectors.
16:09Horrible. Trapped in pods. Completely at the mercy of the collectors.
16:17Horrible. Despicable.
16:18Horrible. Despicable.
16:19Only these are empty.
16:20Only these are empty.
16:21Horrible. Trapped in pods. Completely at the mercy of the collectors.
16:26Only these are empty.
16:27Only these are empty lands for you.
16:28Only panic phones.
16:29Onlyば otrobs and nowe alloих beings were shutting down as usual.
16:35Please salud them up to me.
16:47I'm sorry.
16:48Why would the collectors just leave a pile of bodies lying around?
16:49Why would the collectors just leave a pile of bodies lying around?
16:53Test subjects from control group, discarded after experiment was over.
16:58There are worse things than death, like being a test subject for twisted aliens.
17:03This was wrong, inhumane, even if collectors needed to kill for experiments could have
17:08ended lives painlessly.
17:09Is that supposed to make me feel better?
17:12Because it didn't.
17:14Neutralized all the hostiles.
17:44That's a collector.
18:13Were they experimenting on one of their own?
18:17Edie, I'm uploading the data from this terminal.
18:20See if you can figure out what they were up to.
18:22Data received.
18:24Analyzing.
18:25The collectors were running baseline genetic comparisons between their species and humanity.
18:30Are they looking for similarities?
18:32I have no hypothesis on their motivations.
18:34All I have are the preliminary results.
18:36They reveal something remarkable.
18:38A quad-strand genetic structure identical to traces collected from ancient ruins.
18:43Only one race is known to have this structure.
18:45The Protheans.
18:47My god.
18:49The Protheans didn't vanish.
18:51They're just working for the Reapers now.
18:53These are no longer Prothean Shepard.
18:56Their genes show distinct signs of extensive genetic rewrite.
18:59The Reapers have repurposed them to suit their needs.
19:02You'd think somebody would have picked up on this.
19:05No one has had an opportunity to study a collector genetic code in this detail.
19:10I have already matched 2,000 alleles to recorded fragments.
19:13This collector likely descends from a Prothean colony in the Stix Theta cluster.
19:17But there are signs of extreme alteration.
19:20Three fewer chromosomes.
19:22Reduced heterochromatin structure.
19:24Elimination of superfluous junk sequences.
19:26The Reapers didn't wipe out the Protheans.
19:29They turned them into monsters and enslaved them.
19:32Still, they're working for the Reapers now.
19:35And we have to stop them.
19:36They're not doing to us what they did to the Protheans.
19:39Let's find what we need before the collectors come to salvage this vessel.
19:42Move out.
19:56Excellent.
