Previously...
Here is Z Explorer One.
I promise you, we'll be first on Mars.
This night is going to be beautiful,
Mars will be at its closest to us. The little red spot there.
Stop, I said. I think I've seen someone.
- Hello, I'm back. - Fuck.
I am Vladimir Komarov.
Komarov would have been 90 years old if he would have survived.
He doesn't look it.
He's not dangerous.
Doctor Renoir, you can be really surprising when you want to.
- Why is he here ? - I think he was waiting for us.
Do you believe in miracles ?
I'm rather naturally optimistic.
- He disappeared, he's not in the lab. - Muller to the crew,
I think I know where he is.
- We're going to vote. Meyer ? - For.
You are childish.
It will lead you to nothing.
Gramat, look.
I've never seen this,
no known life form possesses such a DNA.
Simon...
he's not human.
- Commander ! - Trust me.
Do you see what I'm seeing ?
So Jeanne, do you see ?
Mars is at the rendezvous.
So what do you reckon?
This man was there before them.
He couldn't have been sent.
He had to be created on Mars.
A martian.
An alien.
Precisely, but scientifically
the only extraterrestrial life possible
it is artificial intelligence.
It is the only thing capable
of surviving the passing of time and the elements.
In the form of a human being?
So it seems.
And?
Well, it could be the solution.
If we could examine it...
- So ? - So he doesn't know how he unlocked this door,
neither why he was in front of this thing.
Nothing new.
No, he admits we're on Mars 50 years after his days,
but he can't understand it.
Well and Irène, have you made progress ?
I'll start with an evidence,
this edifice is not a natural formation.
Good analysis, Irène.
Thanks.
The stone principal's block
is hold by four Doric pillars, entirely similar
to the ones of the Segeste's temple in Sicily.
The central pattern is identical
maya bas-relief of Calakmul in Mexico.
Finally,
the aspect ratio is equal
to the eighth decimal Phi,
better known as the number for gold in ancient Greece.
Conclusion ?
Conclusion,
somebody was inspired
by our civilizations to build it...
Or our civilisations were inspired from it.

I have the impression this travel delights you more and more.
You're starting to amortize your investment, isn't it ?
William ?
We surely discovered traces of a civilisation connected to ours,
on Mars,
but you know what is the most surprising ?
Tell me.
It's that you're not surprised.
Do you think we're going home ?
What's happening, Irène ?
I'm detecting disrupts on all of the electromagnetic spectrum.
What does it mean ?
Yes, Eva,
I think we're going home.
Goldstein, little bastard.
This is Simon Gramat in charge of Ulysse (Odysseus) mission, do you copy ?
Why aren't they answering ?
Here is Ulysse (Odysseus), do you hear me ?
I hope they didn't end like Z1.
Ulysse, here is Air Zilion 2, do you copy ?
Absolutely, Zilion 2.
Here is Gemma Williams, we are here to help you.
Gemma.
We just landed.
We're finishing the normal check and we'll come to visit you.
We didn't really have the occasion to receive
so it will be with a great pleasure.
It's been weeks we didn't get out.
We are looking forward to joining you, over.
Yes !
Don't celebrate too early.
No, but it's okay, relax, William.
They want to know what we've discovered.
Trust me if you want us to leave.
They're here to help us.
I know Goldstein,
he's a lot of things, but no Saint Bernard.
OK, Irene, how's it coming along ?
You know very well know that I'm faster
than the spectrometer which is holding me up.
Was it me who installed the code that allows you to deceive yourself
or have you programmed it yourself?
Myself,
but I modelled myself on you in you.
Hey, be careful, or I'll give you Homer Simpson's voice.
Oh no, anything but that.
Basile, please.
Don't worry.
Oh my God! Basile, stop it.
You know I hate it.
D'oh!
- Thanks. - May I join you ?
Oh, yeah, of course.
Well, I was working on your analysis.
I wish I was as unworried as you.
And I wish I had your hair.
It's just that
when I feel like I'm useless,
I prefer to focus on things where I know what to do.
It's already not bad.
Well, I don't know much about rocks so I'm struggling.
Wait, look, this is not normal.
The proportion of metals and minerals
is exactly the same on all the samples,
this can't be the fruit of nature.
Yet nature can do perfect things sometimes.
Really, what for instance ?
Uh, her.
Why are you coughing ? You don't even have a throat.
No throat.
I have something for you.
It's really nice but
I like my old clothes.
To be honest, we have guests.
Camouflage ?
- Precaution. - I see,
your commander is a careful man.
If you say so.
Can you turn around ?
Ah yes, forgive me.
I suppose you didn't come here
only to serve me as a designer.
What did you want us to show back there ?
I already said everything to your commander.
No, you didn't say anything.
I need to understand.
I am not telling you anything new by saying to you
that you must discover things yourself ... if you wish to understand them.
Yes,
but often time is short and understanding comes too late.
Look,
say in your right hand
you're holding
all answers to your questions about me,
and in your left hand,
all the answers
about yourself,
about Mars,
about the whole universe.
If you open your right hand,
the left hand disappears.
Then I open the left.
It would be too easy.
But there are immutable rules,
there's a choice to make
It's necessary to give up something.
To open the left,
we will have to wait a little while.
What are we waiting for ?
Whether or not you trust my judgment.
It did not always work for me.
Forget what you already know.
For the past is the past.
Vladimir, how did you know?
- What ? - About my father.
The Martian rendezvous.
Your guests won't be late.
You must be Commander Gramat.
I must be right, your uniform is really superb.
The French touch.
I am Lieutenant Colonel Edward Doisneau,
and this is Major Adam Wayne.
You can call me Eddie
or Edward or Ed.
Well, welcome aboard,
we have been eagerly awaiting your arrival.
Gemma is not with you ?
Mister Meyer,
nice to meet you.
I've heard a lot about you from Miss Williams.
Unfortunately, she had to to stay on
the ship with our engineer.
Tell them.
What was I thinking ?
You know, we went to see
the wreck of the Z1 mission.
My condolences for your friends.
Condolences, yes.
Your words are so musical,
it's one of my favourite languages, commander.
Apart from the propulsion system,
do you know know of the other peculiarity of Zilion shuttles?
One in every two crashes.
Very funny.
No, it's you who is very amusing.
Imagine if Mr Brody,
our engineer,
installed a kind of ...
How to describe it, umm ...
Ah! A black box.
Okay, and so you track it?
And it indicates that the person who took
this black box is here.
It's incredible, is not it?
Yeah, it's crazy.
Where the fuck is it?
Take it easy.
What he is trying to say
is that he wonders
if you did not take it with you,
why does its emission signal
indicate that it is
right here.
We didn't go into the vessel, there wasn't much left.
We just scavenged a solar panel for our repairs,
that's all,
hoping that you could help us in the future.
But of course,
We will send you Mr. Brody
as soon as we have settled this matter.
But first, Major,
look around.
Wait. Wait!
You come here to help us, with assault rifles, is that right?
That is not unusual,
you are scientists, we are soldiers.
All of the first landing crew have disappeared without a trace,
along with our black box.
We have to be careful.
And you say that you can help us if we have it.
But of course.
We will do our best.
That's what we're here for.
Ok, ok.
It would look like this,
- your black box? - Mr Meyer,
thank you for your help.
I suspected that Goldstein didn't send you all this way
just to have coffee.
Take it.
I love French coffee,
but maybe another time.
Hang on. It's obvious
you're leaving. And us ?
Don't worry,
we'll be back very soon.
Of that, I'm sure.
They are military,
so they need an enemy.
Gemma will help us.
You know her ?
She is an old friend,
and she only betrayed me once.
That's very reassuring.
What did you find ?
Well, the spectrometry revealed that the stone did not exist.
What ?
It is made of an unknown alloy.
Unknown on Earth anyway.
Pardon me, but I did not say that it was unknown,
I said that it did not exist.
Where are you going with this, Irène ?
It is an artificial alloy
which does not exist in any geological database,
although it is mentioned in many ancient stories.
Why didn't you say so ?
You did not ask.
Do not forget that I am a machine.
A sarcastic machine.
The composition of this artefact is a 99.99% match
to a precious metal described
in ancient Greek and Roman texts of the first century,
an alloy of copper, zinc,
nickel and iron, called the Orichalcum.
Ori what ?
Orichalcum,
the metal of Atlantis.
Ah, yes that.
But there's still that .01% unknown component.
Wait,
It's not unknown.
The others need to see this right away.
It's DNA.
Wait, are you sure?
Certainly, but it's crazier than that.
It's not just any DNA,
it has the same third helix as that of our Martian, Komarov.
So it's not living? That guy has the DNA of a rock.
If Goldstein finds out, he'll do anything to get it.
Well, we give it to him, that's fine.
- We must protect it. - But why?
- Why? - Why would we take even the slightest risk?
Without them, we have no chance of leaving.
If Komarov is the price to pay, well so be it.
- Enough, let me think. - No, no, no,
we trade him for fuel and that's all.
One thing's for sure, your protégé isn't telling us everything.
We have his DNA. Is that not enough ?
He knows a lot more than he's saying. He'll talk, I know.
You're convinced of that ?
Most certainly.
But what, we're not gonna torture him?
I've got an idea.
Your cabin interior is like an image of you,
a softness hidden behind a hard exterior.
I'll take that as a compliment.
Make yourself comfortable, Vladimir, You're welcome here.
I get the impression that we are making progress.
What do you mean ?
Well...
you invite me to your cabin....
Yes,
strangely, you're the only one on this vessel who's relaxed
and feeling good.
I'll take that as a compliment.
It is their judgments that you flee.
I would like to.
Everyone judges.
Look...
you're judging me right now.
No,
I'm just trying to understand who you are.
That's still a form of judgment,
but it is your job, your purpose for being here.
Well, yes,
but I just can't seem to read you,
which is a first for me.
You'll get there,
it's just a matter of time.
That's the problem,
the others are impatient, they want results now.
I've already told you everything that I know.
In that case, if you have nothing to hide,
I would like to suggest an experiment.
I would like you to allow me to hypnotize you.
It is totally harmless.
Why ask me that now
if we've already started ?
Sorry ?
During our discussion,
you have synchronized your breathing with me and
adopt a mirror position to mine.
So we agree?
Good...
Concentrate on the sound of my voice,
Nothing else matters,
you are relaxed.
You have nothing to fear,
you can close your eyes,
and let my voice envelop and comfort you.
Are you okay?
Now,
you will calmly tell me your name.
Oh, great,
it's going to be simple.
From now on,
you will speak in French, Vladimir.
Yes.
You remember when we first met?
Yes.
It was nice.
I would like you to reach back into your memory,
three minutes before that meeting.
- Well, this isn't going to work. - Just wait, be quiet and watch.
When you are ready,
start telling me what you see around you
and what you feel.
I think I take off my suit.
Why, Vladimir ?
I'm so hot,
it's unbearable.
I'll never get out of here alive.
- Are you on Mars ? - Soyuz.
The main parachute does not open.
I don't know what to do.
Go on, Vladimir, I'm still here, I'm always with you.
Going too fast,
I see flames out the windows.
My suit burns me.
I...
What ?
I'm here, Vladimir.
What is it, Vladimir ?
I have the feeling that there's...
That there's what, Vladimir ?
What do you see ?
What ?
Vladimir.
Damn it !
What the hell is happening ? Basile.
I have the feeling that...
What? A feeling of what, Vladimir?
Basile, unlock the door. Right away, that's an order.
- Yes, right away. - Shit.
- I doing what I can. - I shouldn't have left them alone.
- Wait, I'm almost there. - Jeanne, we're here, can you hear me?
- It should be good. - Jeanne !
