The Man Who Fell to Earth Episode 3 Recap – With the inclusion of a wild card risk assessor, Justin finally recognises that Faraday’s quest is the next step towards her own long-abandoned ambition; they begin on a trip that takes them further than they ever anticipated.
Episode 3 of ‘The Man Who Fell to Earth‘ continues Faraday and Justin as they travel to Origin, a mysterious tech business. Along the way, they team up with Hatch Flood, the company’s ejected risk assessor, and Faraday’s alien-powered antics become even more astounding.
This episode of the science fiction series, titled ‘New Angels of Promise,’ is a dizzying chapter that also offers some intriguing insights regarding the interwoven fates of Earth and Antheon. Let’s take a deeper look at episode 3 of Showtime ‘The Man Who Fell to Earth.’

The Man Who Fell to Earth Episode 3 ‘New Angels of Promise’ Recap
Faraday is still suffering from the affects of absorbing Justin’s father’s diseases when the episode begins. Finally, he emits a dark substance that evaporates into the air, leaving Faraday and Justin’s father, Josiah Falls, perfectly well.
Justin offers to take Faraday to Seattle after being taken aback by her father’s makeover. The extraterrestrial shows Justin the little but strong quantum engine that powered his ship when he arrived on Earth on the way. The quantum engine, on the other hand, is nearly depleted and appears to have only enough juice for a few stunning performances.
Meanwhile, Edie Flood, who acquired a controlling stake in the company from her father, fires her brother, Hatch, at the Origin headquarters. Despite Hatch’s denials, Edie believes he has attempted to sell one of the company’s nine critical patents, which are the company’s sole source of revenue.
Following Newton’s directions, Faraday hunts down Hatch and persuades the unhappy former-Origin risk assessor to pull some strings in order to demonstrate the quantum engine’s power in front of Edie.
CIA agent Spencer Clay discovers a recording of Newton being tortured in Dr. Gregory Papel’s cabin in Alaska. With the late doctor’s body still inside, the agent grabs the film and burns it down the cabin. He then reports his findings to his superior, Drew Finch, and the two understand that alien powers are at work.
What is Faraday’s Quantum Fusion Engine, as seen in the third episode of The Man Who Fell to Earth?
When Justin and Hatch arrive at a tech meetup in London with Edie Flood, they try to hide Faraday as much as possible. However, the brilliant extraterrestrial soon loses his cool and storms onto the stage. Despite the audience’s complaints, Faraday takes a small device from his pocket and uses it to brighten all of the lights in the room.
The stunned audience, including Edie Flood, then glances out the window to find the entire city block’s lights have brightened dramatically. The episode finishes on a bizarre note, with Faraday demonstrating his vast abilities for the first time in public. Unlike his other abilities, however, what Faraday demonstrates at the end of episode 3 has the potential to change the world.
He pulls out a miniature quantum fusion engine from his pocket that has enough energy to power a full city block, if not more. Faraday used to power an oil rig just by putting the engine inside. When Justin inquires about the engine’s use of cold fission, Faraday responds that it employs quantum fusion, a technology decades ahead of human science. Faraday’s quantum fusion engine, which he regurgitates (like the gold rings in episode 1), powered his space trip all the way from the planet Antheon to Earth. Faraday shows that it is running low on energy, despite having enough power to light up a city block.
The extraterrestrial also claims that Justin came closer to building a quantum fusion engine than anyone before her during her time as a scientist. Her research, however, was eventually abandoned due to its infeasibility. When Justin sees a real working quantum engine, it brings tears to his eyes and leaves the meeting’s powerful tech gurus, including Edie Flood, dumbfounded.
What is the tenth (10th) patent of Thomas Newton in Episode 3?
On the basis of nine patents that he introduced, Thomas Newton became extremely well-known and wealthy, according to Episode 3. Each had groundbreaking technology that had never been used before. After the government deemed him threatening, the patents were seized and given to a firm called Origin.
As a result, Origin came to acquire Newton’s patents and profited greatly from them. Newton also had a tenth patent, the details of which he kept hidden. As a result, neither the government officials who seized his other patents nor the Origin scientists were able to find a practical application for the tenth invention.
The eleventh patent, according to Faraday, is an eternal quantum fusion engine that would generate clean energy indefinitely and never run out. As a result, Newton’s tenth patent might be extremely valuable. However, as Hatch Flood worries, a device like a perpetual quantum fusion engine would render all other energy sources obsolete, causing the world system to collapse.
Faraday, on the other hand, is searching for Newton’s patent because the engine, with its infinite source of energy, has the potential to save Antheon by stabilising the planet’s core. Because Earth is expected to suffer a similar fate, Justin asks Faraday to leave the quantum engine ideas behind so that humanity can have a fighting chance.
