Death of A Dream
In the season finale (set in 2019), World Power, a global power company's revolutionary underwater power exchange plant, accidentally causes the Earth's crust to split open allowing molten lava to spill into the sea, which raised the ocean's temperature and threatened to melt the polar ice caps. Realizing it would be the only way to avert a global flood, Bridger ordered all hands to abandon ship and dove the seaQuest into the heart of the lava well, while simultaneously detonating her nuclear weapons. The one million megaton explosion was enough to seal the rupture and save the world.

“Life springs from death and from the graves of patriot men and women spring living nations.... They think that they have pacified Ireland. They think that they have purchased half of us and intimidated the other half. They think that they have foreseen everything, think they have provided against everything; but the fools, the fools, the fools, they have left us our Fenian dead, and while Ireland holds these graves Ireland unfree shall never be at peace.”
—Patrick Henry Pearse (1879–1916)
“All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
