S1E1 - "The Key to Humanity's Future"
Saison 1 · Épisode 1
mercredi 3 avril 2019 • Durée 35:57
SYNOPSIS
The crew of the Herodotus Mission broadcast their first report from the Alpha and Beta sites on the planet Tefen. As they begin to search the sites, they uncover a city, a terraformer, over 200 skeletons...and a box.
One week before deployment on Tefen, the Herodotus Task Force ring in the New Year while aboard the starship delivering them to their Season 1 fates. Over the course of the two acts you will witness dancing, singing, drinking and gambling, but you will also be privy to a number of intimate personal moments and conversations that will reveal more of the inner lives of the characters you've come to love and hate (and some you haven't even met yet). What are Kathy and Harry up to? Can Adrienne and Celia keep the poker game civil or will their fellow players end up at each others throats? Will Ben even leave his quarters? You'll have to listen to see...

Episode Notes
SYNOPSIS
The team begins their investigation into the site where the Nabonidus Task Force went missing. Their disappearance has an air of a locked room mystery. The team finds warnings, questions, anomalies and a new mystery surrounding one of the Nabonidus team members.
The crew begins to piece together the story of the last four days before the Nabonidus crew went missing. Kathy notes strange behaviour in some of the recordings and finds evidence of what lies beyond the antechamber door. Meanwhile, Captain Francis plays a hunch that might result in their biggest lead yet.

Tasering - A character is incapacitated by a device akin to a taser (44:55 - 45:15)
The team heads beyond the antechamber door and become increasingly frustrated with the contradictory evidence on where the Nabonidus crew might be. Meanwhile Celia and Kathy ponder the puzzle presented by Johann Mueller, with Kathy digging up a recording from his personal files that changes everything.

ADRIENNE: Covered in danger messages.
BEN: That in two dozen ways are screaming, "Wrong way, go back."
FRANCIS: They discovered evidence of sabotage.

[The music builds up and switches to a different, bass-heavy version of the theme]
