![]() ![]() Heintz is last seen drifting alone in space, still alive. The episode ends with a glimpse of the remains of the real Eva, while the robot "Eva" converses romantically with a hypnotized Miguel. Heintz is violently sucked out into space (along with the remains of Eva's past victims), as Eva hauntingly sings to a conjured audience, as the Corona along with pieces of wreckage are crushed together to form a rose-like shape around the station. In their desperation, they fire off a powerful energy cannon (usually used to destroy unusable salvage), gouging the structure deep enough to reach the cavern. The crew still on the Corona have since been struggling against an increasingly-powerful magnetic field emanating from the station, pulling the ship and other bits of wreckage towards it. She then makes Heintz relive the memory of his daughter's death, and nearly convinces him to join her by "reuniting" him with a clone of her, but he manages to resist and shoot the massive supercomputer embedded in the ceiling, the source of the AI creating the illusions and distress signals causing Eva, apparently a hologram projected over a robot, to malfunction. Eva confronts Heintz directly for interfering, as she reveals that she had murdered the real Carlo for refusing to marry her, forcing others over the years to perpetuate his image as she saw fit. Heintz rushes to save Miguel, only to find too late, that he had been fully seduced by Eva into thinking he is Carlo. He wakes up to find the scene turned into a white organic resin, which was what made the memory tangibly real. ![]() The illusion becomes dashed, however, when Eva takes over his wife's form and eerily informs him that he "will never leave". Suddenly paralyzed, Heintz relives a memory of life with his family, particularly with his daughter, Emily. Heintz meanwhile finds himself on a theater stage and sees Eva with her back turned, who stabs him when he approaches her. He soon becomes enveloped in a hallucination and Eva suddenly runs up to him, kissing him. Miguel slowly enters the increasingly dilapidated underbelly of the station, and in a cavernous, slime-ridden chamber he finds a broken piano playing the distress signal. Continuing the search for the diva and the source of the signal, the two engineers split up, each experiencing strange paranormal encounters along the way, including strange noises and visions of Eva herself. Further exploration reveals that the station belongs to a once famous opera diva named Eva Friedal, who one day passed her prime, and then disappeared after the murder of her fiancée, Carlo Rambaldi, who was also a fellow singer. Once they gain entry, they discover an opulent European interior, and several furnished rooms with numerous belongings (some in varying degrees of decay), but they find no other signs of life. The crew's two main engineers, Heintz and Miguel, decide to enter it to get a closer look. They soon come upon a spaceship graveyard orbiting a large jagged mass at its center - a giant space station. The Corona, a deep space salvage freighter, while out on a salvage mission encounters a distress signal coming from deep space and decides to follow it. ![]()
