The fourth chapter of Another Life switches things up as it seems like William isn’t the one responsible for cutting the tether – Gabriel is. There’s only one solution – a hard reset. However, the two AIs continue to wrestle for control. Iara comes to the rescue, saving William and making sure Gabriel is forever tortured and kept at bay. Now, further flashbacks confirm that actually Gabriel is the one who’s emotionally unstable and William was the one who took over. As they jump, Cas and the others are left on the planet alone. With half the gang out of commission, Gabriel hacks into the oxygen supply and locks onto a new trajectory directly for the Achaia home world. After teleporting around the ship, he riles up Iara, hacking her memories and tapping into the Achaian side of her personality and preying on her vulnerabilities.Īt the same time, Cas finds a habitable planet nearby and decides to head down to take a look. According to Gabriel, William is the one who’s unstable and responsible for what’s happened with the severed tether. Now, it turns out William is an inferior version and an earlier failed attempt at integrating emotion into an AI. And as they take a look, William transforms into Gabriel.

When Niko returns to see Richard, she finds out there’s a deep-rooted bit of programming stuck in William’s coding.

After all, Iara highlights a good point – she could have left at any time but decided not to. While the gang search through William’s history, Niko speaks to Iara, who tries to gain the Captain’s trust. Instead, the attention turns to the other AI – William. When Niko finds out about this, she doesn’t believe Iara’s confession is genuine given it was made under duress. During a momentary respite, she admits to breaking the tether and disappears from view. It causes Iara immense pain, even for an Ai, and she writhes in pain in the air. The duo begin checking through the console logs and start meticulously poring over her processing data. She puts Richard and Dillon on this task, determined to figure out the truth. In order to properly incriminate her though, Niko needs evidence. She vows on her life she’s not responsible but Niko is not so sure. A cool-headed AI called Gabriel is here, and he was actually scheduled to fly out with the ship before William took over.īack in the present, Niko confronts Iara and claims she’s responsible for getting rid of the tether. As we soon come to find out, this is all a big simulation. Episode 4 of Another Life Season 2 begins with alarms wailing aboard the Salvare.
