HINATA MURAI
What's happening with this? Look again.
Hashimoto-san.
We need to talk.
We have nothing to talk about.
- I'm calling security. - Listen to me.
This isn't what I have to say,
but somebody else.
Please carry on. Excuse me for a moment.
What is she doing?
Do you see something?
I can't see anything.
Say something.
I fired you, didn't I?
You broke in and made it this far.
Surely you knew the next step would be jail.
Yes, that is right.
Why?
The sound: "Wajo." If that was audible, that means the Hoshi didn't depressurize.
In short, there's still air. Which means--
Which means...
they are all alive?
Hashimoto-san, how many years have you been married?
I'm not sure how this is relevant.
Twenty-seven years.
Even if it was speculation, what if...
you were able to save your wife?
What would you do?
You were having an affair.
With who?
Satoshi?
Ryusei?
But then that guy-- that man...
The Emperor Hit Man was--
An awful actor.
Yeah.
No disagreement with you there.
You aren't the only one that heard something in that transmission.
That sound.
Those people aren't JASA.
They're linguists.
What are you hiding?
This was sent from Kibo about six hours ago.
At first, we thought it was a malfunction.
When we looked into it, we realized that it wasn't coming from inside Kibo.
That means...
Sound cannot travel through space.
We didn't know how to interpret it.
But listen.
It repeats.
Perfectly.
Then here...
That's why you called linguists in.
A language without sound.
What in the world...
What is it?
Alien?
Both its source and form are extraterrestrial in nature.
There is also interferometry data getting collected
by at least six event horizon telescopes.
Wajo.
Yes?
Yes, I see.
The Americans are on their way.
All allied space programs are cooperating with America on this.
"Cooperating"?
What does America care about the Hoshi?
Or her crew?
I know that capsule.
I need equipment,
a portable system to establish communication with the antenna--
I can't give you JASA equipment.
But...
if you broke in and stole it from me
after I fired you...
You can get into any room with this.
You asked me what I would do if it were possible to save my wife.
It's obvious.
Anything.
Yamato-san...
don't let anybody get in your way.
Bring her back.
The crew perished. This is an advantage for enemies.
The system was attacked.
The US command system is in an incredibly dangerous situation.
The aliens are trying to deceive us through Yamato-san.
What Yamato-san is talking about is Murai-san...
