In this thrilling episode of Alien Worlds, the crew of STARLab faces an unprecedented threat from deep space. As ISA Commissioner White arrives at STARLab, an emergency transmission from an alien starship disrupts the routine. The ship, carrying two Octavon physicians, Witte and Zena, is pursued by a hostile spacecraft led by Helon, a former Octavon physician turned renegade. Helon demands the surrender of the physicians, threatening to unleash a deadly "Death Song" that could shatter STARLab. As tensions rise, the STARLab team must navigate this interstellar conflict and find a way to protect themselves and their guests.
Amidst the chaos, the episode delves into the fascinating world of Aragonian medicine, where vibrational frequencies are used to heal the mind and body. As the STARLab crew collaborates with Witte and Zena to counter Helon's threat, they uncover the tragic backstory of Helon's transformation and addiction to his hypervibrational condition. With time running out, the team races against the clock to harness their resources and prevent Helon's catastrophic plan. Join us for a gripping tale of survival, science, and the power of harmony in the vastness of space.

And now, Peter Paul Mounds, Almond Joy, and Cadbury chocolate bars presents Alien Worlds. Slowly rotating at the edge of deep space, 1,000 kilometers beyond the atmosphere of twenty first century Earth is the Arthur c. Clark Astronomical Observatory, STARLab. Here, STARLab research director, Maura Cassidy, along with the scientists and technicians of the International Space Authority, watch over the countless stars and planets that fill the silent distances beyond the giant space station. This week, the men and women of StarLab encounter the terrifying dissonance of Death Song on Alien Worlds.
After spending five days at the C Lab seven underwater research station in the South Pacific, ISA Commissioner White arrives at STAR Lab aboard Earth Shuttle One. Hello, Maura. Jerry. Hi commissioner. Hello commissioners.
[00:02:03] Unknown:
How are John and Buddy doing with their aquanaut training?
[00:02:06] Unknown:
They'll be in Sealab 7 until Friday. Then they move to the vault
[00:02:25] Unknown:
This is StarLab. Please identify yourself.
[00:02:28] Unknown:
We are saving and missing two Optimum physicians from the Kronos Aragost. Please give us sanctuary.
[00:02:37] Unknown:
What's your situation?
[00:02:40] Unknown:
We are being pursued by a hostile renegade spacecraft, which has already damaged our ship. If you don't give Us sanctuary, the renegade will destroy us.
[00:02:52] Unknown:
Get a visual scan on them, Jerry. Right.
[00:02:57] Unknown:
There it is. My god. It's enormous.
[00:03:01] Unknown:
So, ma'am, this is Wendy again. Did you understand
[00:03:08] Unknown:
Be careful Jerry, that ship doesn't look damaged to me.
[00:03:12] Unknown:
Withy, we have your spacecraft on visual as a large corrugated black disc with red, yellow, and green markings. And we see no sign of damage.
[00:03:33] Unknown:
There it is Lower left hand corner of the screen
[00:03:37] Unknown:
It's so small No wonder we didn't see it Magnify it, Jerry
[00:03:44] Unknown:
jeez look at that the hull's full of cracks all the way down to the tail fins opening emergency docking bay, Jerry right withy guide your ship toward the docking bay that's surrounded with flashing red lights, and we'll take you aboard.
[00:04:02] Unknown:
Thank you, StarLab. Thank you.
[00:04:12] Unknown:
Starlab, you will soon regret having given them sanctuary.
[00:04:17] Unknown:
Who are you? Identify yourself.
[00:04:21] Unknown:
I am Helon. With the and Zena's pursuer?
[00:04:27] Unknown:
Is it true that you intend to kill them?
[00:04:31] Unknown:
Of course, it's true.
[00:04:33] Unknown:
But why? What have they done?
[00:04:36] Unknown:
It isn't a question of what they've done, StarLab. It's what they haven't done. Alien Worlds will continue.
[00:04:53] Unknown:
This woman's sorry for keeping you guessing. You never know what I'll
[00:06:06] Unknown:
Alien worlds continues. The routine of star lab control is suddenly interrupted by an emergency transmission from an incoming alien starship. Aboard the ship, Withy and Zena, two octagon physicians from the planet Aragon.
[00:06:26] Unknown:
We are being preserved by a hostile renegade spacecraft, which has already damaged our ship. If you don't get a sanctuary, the renegade will destroy
[00:06:37] Unknown:
us.
[00:06:39] Unknown:
As the bell shaped Aragonian starship moves into visual scanner range, Mora, Jerry, and commissioner White see another spacecraft. Huge, black, and disc shaped. I am Elon. Willy and Thanos Pursue. Open a close proximity channel, Jerry.
[00:07:02] Unknown:
Go ahead commissioner.
[00:07:04] Unknown:
Elon. This is commissioner White of the international space authority. I represent the scientific and military forces in this solar system. Do you understand that? I understand. Any hostile action against this space station will be construed as an act of war against the Earth and will be dealt with accordingly. Do you understand that? I understand. What's your planet of origin? Aragon. I see. Well, are you a legal officer of some kind? Have the two Octavon physicians committed a crime? To my way of thinking, they have.
[00:07:50] Unknown:
Doctor Cassidy, this is Simon down in the Emergency Docking Bay. The alien ship is secure.
[00:07:57] Unknown:
Alright, Simon. Thank you. Commissioner, I think we've heard enough from Elon to know where he's at. Let's put him on a hold, and see what the two physicians have to say about, whatever this is about.
[00:08:10] Unknown:
Elon, stay on this frequency, and I'll get back to you. I need some time to think about what you've said. Of course you do, commissioner. And then you'll need time to conspire with Willy and Zena against me, and then there will be no more time, commissioner. The last thing you'll hear is the sound of your own screaming. The rest of the two physicians within the hour. Or I'll unleash a sympathy of such terrible power that your star lab will shatter like a delicate crystal.
[00:09:05] Unknown:
Doctor Cassidy? Simon again? The the two aliens have come out of their ship.
[00:09:10] Unknown:
Bring them into my quarters right away, Simon. Let's go, commissioner.
[00:09:21] Unknown:
I don't know, Mora, except for Stygos and the trail. We've never had to deal with this kind of hostile alien power before.
[00:09:28] Unknown:
Doctor. Cassidy. Hello, Simon. Where are the two aliens? Well, they're
[00:09:33] Unknown:
kind of shy.
[00:09:34] Unknown:
Have them come in, Simon. We won't bite.
[00:09:37] Unknown:
Willy? Zena? It's alright. You can go in.
[00:09:42] Unknown:
Oh my
[00:09:43] Unknown:
gosh. They're elves. Little blue elves. It's obvious what a surprise we are all because of the size we are but just
[00:10:13] Unknown:
Two kilometers beyond STARLab, Keelon enters the audiogenic spectrum chamber of his slowly orbiting ship. He touches a bright red jewel near the entryway. The gleaming black metal floor slides open, then something begins to rise up out of the opening. Something massive and angular and dark. A nightmare construct of polyphonic drone drone generators and ultrasonic inverters, thick spiraling amplifier coils, and blood red keyboards. Helon's death song synthesizer, the Cathedral. My beautiful cathedral, my phantom self, my soul.
Soon, we will hear their their voices dying and with the music of an unexpected
[00:11:12] Unknown:
destiny. Yvan, it's time.
[00:11:16] Unknown:
Time? Time for what, Katarak?
[00:11:19] Unknown:
My infusion. It's time for my infusion.
[00:11:23] Unknown:
I just gave you a death song infusion, Cataract, a few moments ago up in the communications chamber.
[00:11:28] Unknown:
No. You didn't heal, and that wasn't my infusion. That was the premonition, Nagagio, you transmitted to STARLab. It was.
[00:11:38] Unknown:
Yes. Of course, it was. Forgive me, Cataract.
[00:11:41] Unknown:
Perhaps we should share an infusion. Memory distortion is one of the primal symptoms of death song withdrawal.
[00:11:49] Unknown:
Hell, yes. Of course. An infusion. Hell, Cataract. Help me with the anthem injectors.
[00:11:57] Unknown:
With pleasure.
[00:12:07] Unknown:
The various aspects of the mind and body are tuned to specific vibrational frequencies, Mara. And as long as these frequencies are maintained, the mind and body remain in perfect harmony. Illness occurs when certain vibrational frequencies shift out of phase. When that happens, we use these octagons to reharmonize the retrograde frequencies. This restores the mind and body to their proper balance. We don't treat the disease that has no money. We treat the body that has no
[00:13:01] Unknown:
I wish doctor Rossiter were back from Kronos. She'd love this.
[00:13:06] Unknown:
Zena, you said that Helon was once an Octavon physician.
[00:13:10] Unknown:
What changed him? There was a thermal accident at one of my laboratory posts. Helon was set to treat the injured. His sky machine malfunctioned and crashed in an ice forest on the edge of Aragon's polar frontier. He succumbed to a fatal temperature and fell into a pre death trance. Before the trance paralyzed him, he set the infusion level on his octagon at maximum But as a result of being subjected to maximum infusion for two days, the frequencies of Elon's mind and body became terribly distorted when the rescue expedition reached him he was in a state of total vibrational mutation we attempted to reharmonize him at the Octobon laboratory, but we were too late.
He was completely addicted to his hypervibrational condition. One night, he forced his way into the Octobon the two of the instruments Then he went to one of our spacecraft installations abducted a technician named Cataract stole a deep space laboratory ship and disappeared
[00:15:04] Unknown:
Elon, when Witte and Zena are dead, and their octavons are interfaced with the cathedral, where will we go? What will we do?
[00:15:15] Unknown:
We will wander from galaxy to galaxy, exploding the stars with death song. I see crescendos of light and sound that sweep to the far corners of the universe. Death song. Bright comets will swirl and dance against the fiery coronas of eclipsing suns, death song. Planets will vanish in screaming disintegration. Death song raging through the silence, Alien Worlds will continue.
[00:16:08] Unknown:
Pardon me. Isn't that a Cadbury chocolate bar? I've never tried one. That's too bad. Do you mind if I have a teensy piece? Hey, you took my bar. I'll just take a little bit. It was for my wife and me. Oh, she'll love it. See, this is great. You know you can get carried away with this stuff? Yes, I've noticed. Oh, come on. It's a big bar. It's getting smaller. When people get a taste of a big thick Cadbury chocolate bar, they get very carried away
[00:16:36] Unknown:
because only a Cadbury bar is so rich, so creamy, so Cadbury. And with the big size Cadbury chocolate bar, you get a big choice. Cadbury fruit and nut, Cadbury almond, Cadbury caramel, and of course the big favorite Cadbury milk chocolate. So remember when you get your Cadbury, be careful because with Cadbury people can get very carried away.
[00:17:02] Unknown:
Can I have my Cadbury back now? Your Cadbury? Oh,
[00:17:07] Unknown:
I guess I got carried away. You will get carried away with Cadbury.
[00:17:25] Unknown:
Alien worlds continues. Two kilometers beyond star lab, Helon's huge black ovaloid spacecraft continues its slow concentric parking orbit. In the ship's audiogenic spectrum chamber, Helon sits before the blood red multiple keyboards of the death song cathedron. Petrarch, go into the communications chamber. Contact commissioner White, and say this. My ship will orbit six more times. If at the beginning of the seventh orbit, Witte and Zena have not surrendered, Death Song will take the lives of every multivibrational organism aboard StarLab.
[00:18:13] Unknown:
Yes. He will.
[00:18:22] Unknown:
And because there have never been more than 12 octavons in existence at one time, there have never been more than 12 octavon physicians.
[00:18:33] Unknown:
12 physicians for an entire planet?
[00:18:36] Unknown:
12 are enough there. Injuries are rare on Aragon, and illness is relatively nonexistent.
[00:18:47] Unknown:
What was Aragon like before the Octavons were created?
[00:18:51] Unknown:
We treated the diseases of the mind and body with narcotic chemicals. As a result, the people of Aragon were in a constant state of neurotic irresponsibility.
[00:19:06] Unknown:
Mora, are you there? What is it Jerry? I have a transmission coming through from Elon's ship We'll be right there
[00:19:22] Unknown:
It's the beginning of the seventh orbit. Witty and Zena have not surrendered. Their sun will take the lives of every multivibrational organism aboard Star Lab.
[00:19:35] Unknown:
Six orbits. How much time does that give us, Jerry?
[00:19:39] Unknown:
Less than eight minutes.
[00:19:41] Unknown:
Zena, suppose you and Witte give heal on your Octavons. What then?
[00:19:46] Unknown:
You will interface them with the can he already has and his Caphedron will become a weapon of irresistible power.
[00:19:57] Unknown:
So here we are with a 250 megawatt solar reactor and no way to use it against helon no weapon system no communications no shielding generators
[00:20:06] Unknown:
Gamora didn't you say helon's death zone burst had terminated Stormont's primary power matrix?
[00:20:14] Unknown:
No Our reactor wasn't affected at all. If we can interface
[00:20:19] Unknown:
our two Octobombs with your reactor,
[00:20:22] Unknown:
we can defeat you. Alright. Let's get down to the Reactor Control Room and get set up. How much time do we have, Jerry?
[00:20:36] Unknown:
One minute thirty seconds Elon just started his fifth orbit
[00:20:40] Unknown:
Withy, what effect will this have on Elon?
[00:20:44] Unknown:
He will die. Die? But you said you wanted to help him? Taking his life is the only way that we can recall you to life, Mora. Our Octobons will terminate
[00:21:01] Unknown:
How will you know if you've been successful?
[00:21:04] Unknown:
His voice, Krishna. You will hear his voice. Harmonize the octagon, Zena, and tune for maximum pulse inflection. Primary and ancillary sub articulations. Multipartic articulations are in cadence. Cross link reactor output sub terminals, Jerry.
[00:21:41] Unknown:
Sub terminals are in phase.
[00:21:45] Unknown:
Maximum quantum injection. Now. We must call him more.
[00:23:56] Unknown:
Call the short range vehicle hangar, Jerry. Tell him to get a shuttle ready.
[00:24:05] Unknown:
Helon. Helon.
[00:24:09] Unknown:
Keterathorak, my friend, forgive me. Please forgive me. Maybe Xena Catcher Mac is dying.
[00:24:25] Unknown:
I tend to him, Xena. Don't try to stand, Hinai.
[00:24:43] Unknown:
Is there anything we can do, Zena?
[00:24:46] Unknown:
Grow into the shadow and get our Octavons.
[00:24:49] Unknown:
Come on, Mora. I'll give you a hand.
[00:24:56] Unknown:
My dear, Zena, Thank you for calling me from the darkness.
[00:25:04] Unknown:
We are your brothers, Iman. We are your friends.
[00:27:05] Unknown:
