00:30Andersen.
00:45Shepard!
00:48I can't!
00:51I underestimated you, Shepard.
00:56What a f-
01:00I warned you.
01:03Control is the means to survival.
01:06Control of the Reapers, and of you, if necessary.
01:14They're controlling you!
01:18I don't think so, Adam.
01:22Controlling me is a lot different than controlling a Reaper.
01:26Have a little faith.
01:31When humanity discovered the mass relays, when we learned there was more to the galaxy than we imagined.
01:38There were some who thought the relays should be destroyed.
01:42They were scared of what we'd find. Terrified of what we might let in.
01:49But look at what humanity has achieved.
01:53Since that discovery, we've advanced more than the past ten thousand years combined.
01:57And the Reapers will do the same for us again. A thousandfold.
02:03But...
02:08Only if we can harness their ability to control.
02:15Bullshit!
02:16We destroy them, or they destroy us.
02:21And waste this opportunity?
02:24Never.
02:27You're playing with things you don't understand.
02:30With power you shouldn't be able to use.
02:33I...
02:35Don't believe that.
02:37If we can control it, why shouldn't it be ours?
02:40Because...
02:42We're not ready.
02:44No.
02:46This is the way humanity must evolve.
02:50There's always...
02:52Another way.
02:54I've dedicated my life to understanding the Reapers.
02:57And I know with certainty...
02:59The Crucible will allow me to control.
03:02And then what?
03:04Look at the power they need.
03:07Look at what they can do!
03:09Ugh!
03:18I see what they did to you.
03:20I took what I wanted from them.
03:23Made it my own.
03:25This isn't about me or you.
03:27It's about things so much bigger than all of us.
03:30He's wrong.
03:32Don't listen to him.
03:34And who will you listen to, Sheldon?
03:37An old soldier stuck in his ways?
03:39Only able to see the world down the barrel of a gun?
03:43And what if he's wrong?
03:45What if controlling the Reapers is the answer?
03:48If we destroy the Reapers, this ends today.
03:51But if you can't control them...
03:54But I can!
03:56Are you willing to bet humanity's existence on it?
03:59I...
04:01Know it will work.
04:03You can't, can you?
04:05They won't let you do it.
04:07No!
04:09I'm in control!
04:10No one is telling me what to do!
04:12Listen to yourself!
04:14You're...
04:16Indoctrinated.
04:17No!
04:18No!
04:19The two of you so self-righteous!
04:22Do you think power like this comes easily?
04:25There are sacrifices!
04:27You've...
04:28Sacrificed too much.
04:30Shepard, I...
04:32I only wanted to protect humanity.
04:35The Crucibles can control them.
04:37I know it can!
04:38I just...
04:40It's not too late.
04:44Let us go.
04:46We'll do the rest.
04:49I...
04:51I can't do that, Commander.
04:54Of course you can't.
04:56They own you now.
05:01You...
05:03You'd undo everything I've accomplished.
05:06I won't let that happen.
05:10You're not yourself anymore.
05:13We've taken you.
05:16Now...
05:18You're the one who failed.
05:20You failed.
05:50You failed.
05:58There...
06:00Earth.
06:02I wish you could see it like I do, Shepard.
06:06It's...
06:08Perfect.
06:20This is it everyone, the arms are opening.
06:50Ten seconds to contact.
07:20Commander?
07:36We did it.
07:41Yes, we did.
07:44It's, uh, quite a view.
07:50The best seats in the house.
07:59God, feels like years since I had just sat down.
08:08I think you earned a rest, Anderson.
08:11Hmm.
08:13Hmm.
08:15Stay with me.
08:17We're almost through this.
08:20You did good, son.
08:23You did good.
08:26I'm proud of you.
08:30Thank you, sir.
08:34Anderson?
08:34What do you need me to do?
08:48Nothing's happening.
08:51I don't see.
08:52I don't see.
08:53I'm not sure how to...
08:55I don't see.
08:56I don't see.
08:57What do you need me to do.
08:58What do you need me to do?
08:58What do you need me to do?
09:00Nothing's happening.
09:01Nothing's happening.
09:02The crystal's not fiery.
09:04It's gotta be something on your end.
09:08Commander Shepard.
09:15I don't see.
09:17I'm not sure how to...
09:21I don't see.
09:22I don't see.
09:23I don't see.
09:24I don't see.
09:25I don't see.
09:26Commander.
09:27I don't see.
09:38All right.
10:09Wake up.
10:32What?
10:34Where am I?
10:39The Citadel. It's my home.
10:47Who are you?
10:50I am the catalyst.
10:51I thought the Citadel was the catalyst.
10:57No. The Citadel is part of me.
11:01I need to stop the Reapers. Do you know how I can do that?
11:06Perhaps I control the Reapers. They are my solution.
11:17Solution? To what?
11:20Chaos.
11:26The Created will always rebel against their creators.
11:31But we found a way to stop that from happening. A way to restore order for the next cycle.
11:37By wiping out organic life?
11:39No. We harvest advanced civilizations, leaving the younger ones alone.
11:49Just as we left your people alive the last time we were here.
11:53But you killed the rest.
11:56We help them ascend, so they can make way for new life.
12:00Storing the old life in Reaper form.
12:02I think we'd rather keep our own form.
12:07No. You can't.
12:09Without us to stop it, synthetics would destroy all organics.
12:14We've created the cycle, so that never happens.
12:17That's the solution.
12:18But you're taking away our future.
12:25Without a future, we have no hope.
12:27Without hope, we might as well be machines.
12:31Programmed to do what we're told.
12:33You have hope. More than you think.
12:37The fact that you were standing here, the first organic ever, proves it.
12:41But it also proves my solution won't work anymore.
12:45So now what?
12:46We find a new solution.
12:51Yeah. But how?
12:54The Crucible changed me.
12:56Created new possibilities.
12:59But I can't make them happen.
13:02I know you've thought about destroying us.
13:04You can wipe out all synthetic life if you want.
13:19Including the Geth.
13:20And most of the technology you rely on.
13:23Even you are partly synthetic.
13:27But the Reapers will be destroyed?
13:30Yes.
13:31But the peace won't last.
13:34Soon, your children will create synthetics, and then the chaos will come back.
13:39Maybe.
13:39Or do you think you can't control us?
13:44So, the Illusive Man was right after all?
14:00Yes.
14:01But he could never have taken control.
14:04Because we already controlled him.
14:06But I can.
14:09You will die.
14:10You will control us, but you will lose everything you have.
14:14But the Reapers will obey me?
14:15Yes.
14:18There is another solution.
14:21Yeah.
14:23Synthesis.
14:25And that is?
14:28Add your energy to the Crucibles.
14:31Everything you are will be absorbed and then sent out.
14:36The chain reaction will combine all synthetic and organic life into a new framework.
14:42A new DNA.
14:45I don't know.
14:51Why not?
14:52Synthetics are already part of you.
14:54Can you imagine your life without them?
14:57And there will be peace?
15:00The cycle will end.
15:02Synthesis is the final evolution of life.
15:05But we need each other to make it happen.
15:08You have a difficult decision.
15:10Releasing the energy of the Crucible will end the cycle.
15:13But it will also destroy the mass relays.
15:18The paths are open.
15:20But you have to choose.
15:21Synthesis is the final evolution of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the cycle of the Crucible will end the
