S12E1 · Robot Part 1
Drill bit breaches vault floor in real time

The narrow junction where the vault’s underground corridor meets the bunker entrance becomes the room-sized graveyard of human security dreams as the drill erupts upward through the reinforced floor, hurling the sentry to his death and forcing the team into a compressed space swollen with acrid drilling smoke and the thunder of violated concrete.
