#DarkMatter Virtual Season 4 - Episode 4.02, Act V
Our story so far: josephmallozzi.wordpress.com/2018/06/24/jun…
VFX - SPACE
The G.A. shuttle streaks towards the rift, evading weapons fire from the alien ships. As it draws near -
Another ship exits the rift. It's the Marauder!
Onboard The Raza, Android detects the Marauder. SIX's voice comes over the comm channel, requesting permission to dock. As a jubilant FIVE responds, Android directs The Raza on an intercept course, providing cover fire for the Marauder as -
The G.A. shuttle is struck and begins to lose structural integrity. It drifts towards the event horizon and - detonates in a blinding flash, taking down out the rift and a handful of alien ships.
The Marauder docks. The Raza is rocked by sustained weapons fire from the approaching alien ships. Once the Android has confirmed the Marauder is safely aboard, The Raza jumps to FTL and make good its escape.
An elated FIVE is reunited with SIX outside the airlock, throwing her arms around the big man and almost knocking him off his feet. Wexler and Tash's reunion is decidedly more restrained. A nod and "Hey" countered by a "Hey" and nod back.
The Raza docks at a space station.
Anders leaves them, vowing to stay in touch and update them on the movements of the remaining alien ships.
Tash bids SIX a fond farewell. With Alt. Portia and Boone M.I.A., she's now in command of the Alt. Android and their ship.
Wexler pitches TWO for why he should stick around. Portia, Boone, and Ferrous Corp will be gunning for him and Truffault's not returning his calls. It's chaos out there and he's proven he can help. TWO allows him to stay. But she's keeping him on a short leash. As for Ryo...
TWO and the Android pay Ryo a visit. Has he decided? He says he has.
He steps out of his quarters to find the rest of the crew waiting for him - THREE, FIVE, SIX and, now, Wexler. Their expressions convey an array of emotions: uncertainty, pity, hope.
The crew escorts Ryo to the transit pods. The Android reminds Ryo that the procedure is not without risk, but he is past caring. Ryo addresses his former crew mates with a final message: "I'm sorry." Then, he gets into the pod. The procedure begins...

This reminds me of the time I was invited to Akemi's sister's wedding in Japan. As we were preparing for the trip, Akemi asked what I would be wearing to the event. I said: "My suit." She told me her father had suggested I wear a kimono. "A kimono?"I said. "For a man?" 1/4
She informed me that, yes, there were male kimonos. And that she thought I'd look very handsome in one. I demurred. "A kimono? I don't know..." She insisted, her father thought it was a great idea, and she would be wearing one, so we'd look great together. 2/4
I gave it much thought, perused the links to the various mens' kimono options and finally, much to everyone's disappointment, elected to go with a suit instead. As much as I liked the idea of a kimono, I felt I just wouldn't feel comfortable. 3/4

#DarkMatter Episode 4.02 Act 4
SIX drifts wide of the mark. He begins to run Tash through the piloting sequence that will get her through the rift when suddenly, his progress is halted. REVEAL Tash, secured to a lifeline, has snagged his ankle, literally "catching her lift".
Commander Vandermeer pays a visit to the imprisoned TWO, THREE, and Wexler. TWO makes a pitch for the white hole bomb so that they can target the rift and, hopefully, deal the looming alien invasion a critical blow. Vandermeer is unconvinced...
Inside the G.A. facility, Wexler tells the security guards outside the door that he'll detonate the bomb if they don't back off. The scientist confirms that it, has intact, been armed. Wexler reminds them they are clones and have nothing to lose. #DarkMatter

#DarkMatter Virtual Season 4 - Episode 4.02, Act III
Act 1:
Act 2:
An unconscious TWO is cuffed as Anders, THREE, and Wexler are pulled out of their transfer pods and arrested. Their clones are still active - but not for long….
Inside the facility, Anders gets on a computer and deduces the bomb has been moved to the R&D lab, two floors down. He, THREE, and Wexler are on the move. #DarkMatter
Back at the Ferrous shipyard, Tash informs SIX of his options. Option #1: He jumps and hope this trajectory carries him to the other side. If he miscalculates, he'll drift wide and float off helplessly...until his oxygen runs out. Option #2: See Option #1.

#DarkMatter Virtual Season 4 - Episode 4.02, Act II
Act 1:
VFX - SPACE
The Raza drops out of FTL at a space station.
At the airlock, Lieutenant Anders is welcomed aboard.
In the mess, they discuss the op to steal the white hole bomb. It's being held in a heavily-secured facility. But there's a way in. Guards travel to and from the station via a dedicated transfer transit station. The crew of The Raza will get into that station with Anders' help.
Then he, THREE, and Wexler will transfer to the facility while TWO stays behind to guard their defenseless bodies. Once they secure the bomb, they'll steal a GA shuttle and fly it out of the facility and back to The Raza that will drop out of FTL and pick them all up. Simple!

DarkMatter Virtual Season 4 - Episode 4.01, Act 5 (of 5)!
Establish a remote farmhouse. It's a beautiful day. TWO steps out outside - "She finally fell asleep..." - and trails off at the sight of a shirtless Kryden returning from his chores.
His lean, muscled body is covered with a web of cybernetic circuitry running from his fingertips to his very core. He's augmented.
Kryden puts on his shirt, tells her: "She's sleeping a lot better now that you're here. You were gone so long, I didn't think you were coming back."
TWO is about to respond when, suddenly, she is assailed by a violent headache. She loses her balance. Kryden goes to her. As she shakes it off, a thunderclap causes them to look skyward. Ominous storm clouds moving in. Lightning flashes. He suggests they head inside.
