In the pilot episode, Dr. Helena Soarez arrives at the abandoned Pluto outpost to document the silence that has gripped the colony for months. Her initial routine reports quickly descend into paranoia as she encounters glitches, missing files, and distorted communications from the base. While trying to reconnect with the control center, she discovers hidden archives of her own earlier logs, revealing a mysterious alternate version of herself delivering a cryptic warning. The episode sets the tone of isolation, tension, and suspense, introducing the mystery that will unfold in subsequent episodes.

Picking up immediately after the pilot, Helena has just found the hidden folder containing the “lost logs”, warning herself: “Don’t trust the logs, and never go near the core. I gotta go now, I’ll see you soon.” Disturbed, she replays it repeatedly, trying to rationalize whether it’s a corrupted file, an AI glitch, or a delusion caused by isolation. On-screen, windows flicker between file explorers, waveform analysis, and voice-matching tools, her way of convincing herself it’s just data noise. Small anomalies appear: time stamps don’t align, the internal clock desynchronizes, and the base sensors show minor time drifts, as if reality itself is slightly unsynced. When she tries to record a new log, her webcam activates on its own. Helena watches the feed glitch and display her saying a phrase she never spoke: “You’ve done this before.” The interface freezes for a moment, then auto-saves the file under the name: “Log_1_repeat”.

Helena focuses on tracing the technical root of the “phantom” logs. Using command windows and system diagnostics, she identifies corrupted communication data coming from the signal tower module. While digging deeper, she discovers references to an old subsystem: ECHO-9, an abandoned AI process designed to “reconstruct incomplete transmissions.” She reactivates it, believing it might help recover her missing logs. As ECHO-9 boots up, fragmented voices, distorted cries for help, fragments of messages, some with her own tone and phrasing. The voice analysis window shows multiple “Helena” vocal signatures. She stares silently at the monitor, as the AI voice, calm and synthetic, interrupts: “You are not the original.”
