EXT. HILLTOP - FRESH WATER FARM - SUNSET
The loveliest spot on the farm. A beautiful view of the house, barns, river, fields and hills beyond. A gravestone stands in the shade of a soaring oak tree covered with Spanish moss. It reads:
ELIZABETH PUTNAM MARTIN 1738-1773
Above her name is a carving of the night sky, at the center of which is the NORTH STAR, steady and guiding.
Martin approaches.
He gives himself a moment to look at the grave.
A soft wind blows some dry leaves along the ground.
Martin turns his head, as if listening to spoken words.
PUSH IN on the North Star on the gravestone.
MARGARET (V.O.)
That's her, the North Star...
DISSOLVE TO:
INT. GIRLS' BEDROOM - NIGHT
Martin stands in the doorway, unobserved, while Margaret
and Susan look out the window at the night sky.
MARGARET
... you start from the front two
stars of the Big Dipper and count up
five fingers lengths... that's
right... there.
Susan gazes up at the North Star. The girls notice Martin
and climb into bed. He puts a chair against Susan's bed
and kisses her. He pulls a blanket up around Margaret,
who whispers:
MARGARET
It helps her to know Mother's there.
Martin nods with a thin smile, kisses Margaret, picks up
his candle and walks out.
INT. BOYS' BEDROOM - NIGHT
Martin enters, finding William asleep on the floor and
Nathan and Samuel both asleep in their beds. He lifts
William into bed, takes a slingshot from Nathan's hand.
Samuel looks up, three-quarters asleep, murmuring:
SAMUEL
Mail, papa...
MARTIN
I know.
He tucks in Samuel and walks out.
INT. THE NURSERY - NIGHT
Georgie is in his bed, back in his nightclothes again. He tosses and turns in his sleep. Mary Poppins sits next to him.
MARY POPPINS
It’s alright, Georgie, it’s alright. You were been having a nice sort of nightmare, I must say.
Mary Poppins turns on his bedside lamp.
GEORGIE
You were right, Mary Poppins! A cover is not the book! We thought they were nice, but they were mean!
MARY POPPINS
Whatever are you talking about?
GEORGIE
They tried to take Gillie!
MARY POPPINS
Gillie is right here, sleeping - as you should be.
She moves the giraffe next to Georgie.
GEORGIE
But it was real!
They stole all our things, and the wolf said we were never going to see our home again.
MARY POPPINS
That’s absurd.
Mary Poppins stands goes to shut the window. She sees Jack cycling away outside, he waves up to her as he goes. John and Annabel climb out of their beds, awake as well.
JOHN
But I had a nightmare like that, too.
ANNABEL(Turning on light:)
So did I. It seemed awfully real.
GEORGIE
I don’t want to lose our home.
Georgie moves over and sits on Annabel’s bed, cuddling Gillie.
JOHN
You see, Georgie?
That’s why we wanted mother’s bowl; we were going to sell it to save the house.
GEORGIE(After a beat.)
I miss mother.
The room falls silent.
Something flickers ever so briefly in Mary Poppins’ eyes, and then she speaks.
MARY POPPINS
Listen to the three of you.
You’re all worrying far too much.
After all, you can’t lose what you’ve never lost.
GEORGIE
I don’t understand.
"THE PLACE WHERE LOST THINGS GO"MARY POPPINS
DO YOU EVER LIE AWAKE AT NIGHT
JUST BETWEEN THE DARK AND THE MORNING LIGHT
SEARCHING FOR THE THINGS YOU USED TO KNOW
LOOKING FOR THE PLACE WHERE THE LOST THINGS GODO YOU EVER DREAM OR REMINISCE?
WONDERING WHERE TO FIND WHAT YOU TRULY MISS
WELL MAYBE ALL THOSE THINGS THAT YOU LOVE SO
ARE WAITING IN THE PLACE WHERE THE LOST THINGS GO
MEMORIES YOU'VE SHARED
GONE FOR GOOD YOU FEARED
THEY'RE ALL AROUND YOU STILL
THOUGH THEY'VE DISAPPEARED
NOTHING'S REALLY LEFTOR LOST WITHOUT A TRACE
NOTHING'S GONE FOREVER
ONLY OUT OF PLACE...
Mary Poppins puts John back to bed and tucks him in.
She tucks Annabel into her bed.
SO MAYBE NOW THE DISH AND MY BEST SPOON
ARE PLAYING HIDE AND SEEK JUST BEHIND THE MOON
WAITING THERE UNTIL IT'S TIME TO SHOW
SPRING IS LIKE THAT NOW, FAR BENEATH THE SNOW
HIDING IN THE PLACE WHERE THE LOST THINGS GO
Mary Poppins takes Georgie’s hand and leads him back to bed.
Now, time to get some sleep. And in the morning, bright and early, we’ll take that bowl to my cousin and have it mended.(She tucks Georgie in.)
TIME TO CLOSE YOUR EYES
SO SLEEP CAN COME AROUND
FOR WHEN YOU DREAM, YOU'LL FIND
ALL THAT'S LOST IS FOUND
MAYBE ON THE MOON
OR MAYBE SOMEWHERE NEW
MAYBE ALL YOU'RE MISSING LIVES INSIDE OF YOU...
SO, WHEN YOU NEED HER TOUCH AND LOVING GAZE
GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN IS THE PERFECT PHRASE
Mary Poppins walks over to the window, looking out toward a bright star in the night sky.
SMILING FROM A STAR THAT SHE MAKES GLOW
TRUST SHE'S ALWAYS THERE, WATCHING AS YOU GROW
FIND HER IN THE PLACE WHERE THE LOST THINGS GO
Mary Poppins walks out of the nursery, closing the pocket doors that lead to her room. Annabel, gets up, crossing to look out the window at the star.
After a moment, she turns to go back to bed, but then she notices the bowl on the mantelpiece. She peers at it, her eyes growing wide.
ANNABEL
(Quiet wonder:)
John... look! Mary Poppins’ scarf. It wasn’t a dream after all...
John crosses to Annabel’s side. She points at the carriage on the bowl; Mary Poppins' scarf is tied around the broken wheel. John is amazed.
JOHN
Shall we tell her?
ANNABEL
We’d better not. I expect she already knows
Michael Burn ‘em :
Burnham to Discovery.
I'm setting coordinates for the Beta Quadrant, Terralysium, 930 years from this launch point.
That should take us where we need to go.
Commander, the quantum fluctuations within the wormhole make it difficult to track your position using standard sensors.
How do you intend to guide us through?
I'll send A Signal.
The sixth signal.
Like The North Star, that's what this is.
You can follow it to me on The Other side.
Copy, Commander.
I'm approaching the briefing room now.
Copy that, Captain.
- Standing by to assist.
- Thank you, Number One.
(DOOR WHOOSHES OPEN) (SCREAMS) (GRUNTING)
Your algorithm was the easiest to predict.
You would want fast access to the ship's two most valuable assets.
The Data is in the spore console.
(BOTH YELL) (LOCKS DOOR) You think This Cage will hold me?
(PIKE GRUNTS)
What if we transfer the antimatter to antimatter pods?
Too risky.
You sure you can't reprogram the guidance system? (EXPLOSION) I've tried.
This thing is gonna blow in 90 seconds.
There's an emergency lever for the blast door.
I can bring it down manually, from the inside, and seal off the rest of the ship.
- No.
We are Out of Time.
That Last Light will change, this torpedo will blow, and everyone on The Bridge, maybe everyone on This Ship, will die.
And if you do this, you die.
This is My Ship, My Responsibility.
This isn't where Your Story ends.
And I think you know that.
If I'm meant for a different future, this thing can't possibly go off with me in here.
Maybe not.
But how many people will pay the price if you're wrong? Kat Go.
It's time.
And, Chris whatever your path may be, you can handle it.
(BEEPING RAPIDLY) Discovery to Enterprise, are you all right? We're okay.
But we lost the admiral.
SARU:
Burnham, we are running out of time.
Okay, it's time to go, Spock.
Get back to Discovery.
Michael, I cannot.
What?
When my vessel was hit My engines are disabled.
Discovery can lock onto you with a tractor beam.
There is no time.
And even if there were, they would need to lower their shields to bring me aboard, and they will not survive doing so.
Not in this battle.
Not with the amount of damage that ship has already sustained.
You must go.
I just got you back.
I don't want to let go.
Neither do I.
I already lost you once.
You never Lost Me, Michael.
As A Child, I was Truly Lost.
The Path of My Father, The Path of My Mother.
You came into our lives and you taught me it was possible to travel both.
You Found Me.
You Saved Me.
That wasn't me.
That was always in you.
You are My Balance, Michael, you always have been, and I am afraid that I will not find it again without you.
Okay.
Listen to Me.
Listen to Me, Little Brother.
This is the last advice I'll ever be able to give you.
There is a Whole Galaxy out there full of people who will reach for you.
You Have to LET Them.
Find that person who seems farthest from you, and reach for them.
Reach for them.
Let them guide you.
I will.
I only wish I could be certain of your safety.
(SIGHS)
You will.
(CHUCKLES) (SNIFFLES)
I'll send the last signal.
I'll send it through The Wormhole when we get to The Other Side.
I will Watch The Stars for it.
(GRUNTING)
Oh, enough with the tantrum already.
Let's end this now, shall we? You should know I've magnetized the spore cube.
Enjoy.
(WHIRRING) (DISTORTED ALARM AND CHATTER)
SPOCK (OVER COMM): Spock to Enterprise.
My shuttle's engines are disabled.
I will not be returning to Discovery.
Hold your position.
We'll transport you out.
Commander Saru, how are your shields?
Ensign Tilly, where are we? Almost there.
(POWERING UP) (PANTING)
Somebody owes me a beer.
We are good to go, sir.
Shields back up to 40%.
More than enough, Captain.
PIKE (OVER COMM):
Stand by to transport, Spock.
(SPEAKING VULCAN) Michael.
I Love You, Too, Brother.
(CRYING)
Commander Burnham, on your mark.
Burnham to Discovery.
Let's Go.
Lieutenant Detmer, full power.
Follow our signal.
(PANTING) All vessels, aim at 3-mark-5-mark-2.
Clear a path.
Goodbye, Captain Pike.
Goodbye, my friends.
My Family.
We're on our way, Paul.
We're on our way.
This does not end here.
Actually, it does, and it's going to hurt.
And I'd like to hear you scream now.
(SCREAMING)
No! (GIGGLES)
Captain, they're all Dead in The Water.
Open fire.
Georgiou to Bridge.
I'm in Engineering.
Leland is Dead.
Control is Neutralized.
SARU:
Copy, Commander.
We are on our way.
(SOFTLY): Go.
Go, go.
