"As much as you may want, this is not about us." "This is--this is about the whole damn world." " You're my whole damn world." "♪" "What's up there isn't real." "♪" "♪" " All right, guys, hey, come on." "Back on the other side of the fence." " Ricky." "Ricky?" "♪" "♪" " Know what they call you?" "The blue collar prophet." "Cool, huh?" "♪" " Where are you from?" " Mexico city." " How's the air in mexico city these days?" " It's clean." "♪" " Listen, if you don't have him, you need to help him." "You can do anything, right?" "So you find him, and you bring him back to me." "Bring him home." " What's she doing?" "♪" "♪" " Coffee?" " Want to tell me what part of your journalistic experience" "Gives you the chops to play general?" " I'm not playing general." "I'm a pacifist." "We are 120 miles from the nearest town, 150 feet underground," "Lead-shielded, self-sufficient," "And off-grid, I believe they like to call it." " So what are you trying to do here, wainwright?" "You want to--you want to start a war?" "Come on, you're smarter than that." "You know you can't win." " You're right." "We can't win a war against them," "But organized resistance?" "Now, that's different." "You see," "Karellen likes to see himself as the benign overlord." "What if we stopped working with him?" "What if we destroy our clean power plants," "Pollute our irrigation systems?" " But listen to yourself." " Defiance." "If we stop following them, they've failed." " So you destroy every good gift they've given us." "Then what?" " They leave." "What choice do they have?" " So we can just screw the world up all over again." " I'd rather the world went down the toilet" "Under our control than flourished under theirs." " Oh, okay, I get it." "So then--so this is about who's holding the power, right?" "'cause you used to hold the reins to public opinion." "Now you don't like that they've taken that from you." "You've got--you got to wrap your head around the fact" "That working with them is not the same as working for them." " Semantics, ricky." " So what the hell do you want from me?" " I want you to join the freedom league and speak for us." " No." " Then the overlords have their first martyr." "♪" "♪" " Did he plan that for the camera?" "♪" " Are you hurt?" " No." " Time has changed." "Our time." "A second is an hour to us." "Remember how we used to talk about that?" "How we wished that a night would last a whole year?" "♪" " Don't come to me like this, karellen." " I'm not karellen, ricky." "♪" " Then what are you?" " A memory." "A ripple in a pond." "I'm not a part of them." "I'm a part of you." " Why would karellen send you?" "He could have sent anything." " No, he couldn't." "He's led by what's in your heart." "That's why he built this room, our room." "♪" " No." "♪" "♪" "I buried you." " Did you?" "One day you'll understand why I came back" "And why he built the room." " Ricky?" "♪" "What's happening to us?" " Oh, come here." "Come here." "♪" " Look at you." "They shouldn't do this to us." "They're playing with your mind." "♪" "You need to see who this karellen really is." " Be safe." " Yeah." "♪" " Don't think about it." "Just do it." "♪" " You guys see everything, right?" " Mm-hmm." " So then you could have stopped them from taking me." " We could have neutralized his armies," "But we needed the world to see what human resistance" "Is capable of," "That they would murder someone so beloved for their cause." "Their spirit is broken now." "The freedom league is disbanding." "We are doing this for your own good." " Let me tell you a little something about trust, karellen." "It works both ways." " The world federation is being founded." "Your nations will now unite as one." "The first stage is complete." " He's exactly right." "I'm just talking to myself." "You told me that you needed my advice" "Just as much as we needed yours." "Well, here it is." "As long as you stay hidden back here," "There's always gonna be people that don't trust you." "Human beings don't trust what they can't see." " They trust in a god they can't see." "Man needs a lot more psychological preparation" "Before we can show ourselves." " So when?" " Not for many years," "But when the time is right..." "I know you're disappointed with my answer," "But we've seen the effect our appearance can have." " So then you have been seen by people." " Your world isn't the only planet we've supervised." "Now, your work is done here, I think." "♪" " What?" "So that's it?" " I've so enjoyed our chats." " Oh--okay, just hold on." " You'll live to see that day." "It will be wonderful for both of us," "But it will still be very hard when we finally appear." "I hope you don't mind me saying this," "But I'm going to miss you, my friend." "Hmm." " Uh, karellen..." " Good-bye." " Karellen!" "♪" "Karellen was right." "We can't let anyone see this." "Just delete it." "Get rid of 'em." "I'm done." "I'm home." "Ellie ryberg," "Will you marry me?" " Evil can disguise itself as truth." "Whatever faith or belief you have," "Know that we're in this battle together," "All of us." "We can never give up the fight." "No matter how mighty the overlords may seem," "We should never give up." "♪" "Remember, there is an ultimate truth in this universe." "♪" "I will never, ever stop believing that." "♪" " Media magnate hugo wainwright, jr." "Has been found hanged in his d.C. Office." "The newspaper proprietor left no note," "And there are believed to be no suspicious circumstances." "♪" " You seem pretty low for a walking miracle." " I never used to feel this different or this scared" "When I was in the chair." " That's 'cause your chair was a barrier" "Protecting you from the world," "But the barrier's down now." "You've got to stop hiding and work out who you are." " Is that what they did when they cured me?" " Oh, maybe." "Maybe they think you got potential." " On the tv, they say that science is dying." "I don't want it to die." "♪" " So what are you gonna do about that?" " Well, I want to be the first person to visit their planet." "♪" " Then that is what you'll do." "♪" " Who knows why they chose 15 years," "But things had got a whole lot better." "I got a place at mit, graduated," "And got a job in astrophysics." "Mom got clean and looked younger than ever before." "In fact, everyone did." ""youth of utopia," they called it." "The earth was being reborn, so to speak," "And right now was waiting" "To meet their guardian angels." "♪" "Kenny?" "♪" " Milo." "Oh, my god, milo." "Welcome home." " It's good to be back." " You still playing scientist?" " I am in the dwindling dodo profession" "That is astrophysics, yes, sir." "Man, I mean, wow." "Look at this." "Everything-- everything's changed." " Yeah, most of these are empty." "When folk found out they didn't have to earn money," "They just cleared on out into them wide-open spaces." "It's pretty much all mine now." " Yeah?" " Mm." " I mean, you looked after?" " People leave this for me every few days." "I have music." "I have peace." "They did it, milo." "They did it." "They showed us how to make heaven on earth." "Mm!" " It's a big day." " Yes, it is." " Thought maybe you'd want to come to a bar" "And share it with me." " I don't need to see them, milo." " What are you talking about?" " I've seen enough." " You know me." "I could never see enough." "♪" " Hey, buddy." " Come on, dad, it's started." " What's started?" " Jake!" " What's that?" " Come on!" " All right." " What are you doing?" " Ahh." "No hello?" "Right there." "Okay." " It's hard to believe that our wait is over," "But it is," "And it seems that the supervisor for earth, karellen," "Deems us ready to look him in the eye." "And here we are at the designated monument site" " I can't believe it's arrived." "We're ready, huh?" " Guess we are, amy." "Guess we are." "♪" " It's a beautiful, balmy evening" "As the sun starts to set on the 200,000 excited spectators." "Delegates from the world federation" "Are taking to the main podium." "It's fair to say that everybody's breath" "Is truly bated as we wait to meet our guardian angels." "♪" "There's--there's some disturbance in the sky." "♪" "And it's here." "It's above us right now." "♪" "People are on their feet." "We haven't seen an overlord ship this close" "Since they first arrived over a decade and a half ago." "Now, it does appear to be docking with the arrival ramp." "♪" "And it's docked." "The ship is docked." "♪" " This is karellen." "Let the children come forward." " The child greeters that karellen asked for" "Are now entering the arrival ramp." "♪" "" "My god." "♪" "♪" " Karellen was right to hide himself from us." " Still, I think, uh..." "I think it may be too soon." " This world will be okay, won't it?" " Yeah." "Yeah, I think so." "♪" " Hello." "There is no need to be afraid." "♪" "♪" "Fixed  Synced By MoUsTaFa ZaKi"
