"[ALIENS SHRIEKING]" "Southeast guys are right on time." "[ALIENS SHRIEKING AND HISSING]" "Come on, guys." "Just a little bit further." "Ripped By mstoll" "[GRUNTS]" "Come on, guys." "The Wall's supposed to be down by now." "[ALIENS SQUEALING]" "Come on." "My favorite Zeppelin?" "Led Zeppelin Two." ""Lemon Song" alone is enough to earn the title." "Two, huh?" "What about Four?" "They had "Black Dog." "Stairway to Heaven." I mean, come on." "TOM:" "When did you become a Zeppelin fan?" "HAL:" "Second I heard it." " I can tell you my least favorite Zeppelin." " Let me guess." "It's that giant alien one flying around, monitoring all activity in camp." "Actually, it's Coda." "Coda 's pretty bad." "What's it like up there?" "It's scary." "I learned a few things, though." "They're gonna be taking us out of here with plans to skitterize us all." "That's happening in 48 hours." "That Zeppelin is the command and control center for the whole perimeter." "And that tether, we cut that tether, we cut the power to the walls." "You say that like it's pretty easy." "That's a tall order." "I know." "There's a lot that could go wrong." "I tell you one thing I'm not worried about though." "It's you." "You're gonna do great." " When we get out of here" " We're gonna take the fight to them." "DINGAAN:" "A Faraday suit works because the current from the fence distributes charges onto the suit so that they cancel the current's effects inside the suit." "Okay, I get that." "For how long, though?" "Ah, 90 seconds or so." "Or until what little copper solder we have fails." " You put on the suit and walk through it?" " No." "The Wall's electrical current is concentrated at the center." "The suit can only withstand superficial contact." "That's why I have to climb one of those giant sticks go right over the top and climb down." "Aren't the obelisks electrified too?" "No." "Well, yes, but not at the voltage levels in the center of the wall." "The suit can take it." "I know." "I've done it." "What kind of charges am I using to blow the tether?" "Ammonium nitrate." "Ammonium nitrate?" "You realize the volatility of ammonium nitrate?" " This suit isn't strong enough" " It's all we have." "This is a situation where every single thing must go right." "We don't have a choice." "Don't worry." "We can do this." "You are not the one wearing a homemade trash can for protection, my friend." "MAGGIE:" "You found Lexi in the woods meeting with an Espheni." " Are you sure?" " I'm sure." "She's telling us to lay down our weapons." "She's been meeting with the enemy." "What do you think it means?" " Is she conspiring?" " I don't know." "On one hand, you've been safe here like she said you would be." "And on the other hand, she could be setting us up for something." "You were right." "There's a first time for everything." "Um..." "We can't just go off half-cocked." "You know, it's different here." "I can see that." "Let's just take a beat." " I thought you threw those away." " I was going to." "I almost did when she stopped that mech, but I guess I thought I needed to hang on to them just in case." " In case of what?" " In case all this." "The sanctuary here turned out too good to be true." "I gotta say you look more like yourself with those." "She lied to me, Ben." "She lied to all of us." "And I bought it." "I don't like being betrayed." "Let's just talk to her first." "If she's meeting with the enemy and she's not telling us about it, she's just gonna lie." "I'm not even sure she's capable of lying." "Let's just give her the benefit of the doubt." "She's earned that." "She's still my sister, Maggie." "Okay." "But I'm bringing my guns." "Today is a very special day." "One of our graduates has come back, having done exemplary work in the field." "I am sure you all remember Sheila." "Sheila has rescued several holdouts who were in bad shape." "They'll be fed, clothed, seen to and transferred to a transitional facility." "She was also able to find some folks that are very special to her personally." "Sheila, would you like to introduce our guests?" "This is Bill and Martha." "My parents." "[CHILDREN CLAPPING]" "Bill, tell the students what life was like out there before your daughter rescued you." "We were starving." "Sick." "But thanks to Sheila I realized how wrong it was to resist." "She helped me to see how important it is that we accept the new paradigm." "Join hands with the Espheni to forge a better world." "KENT:" "Bill and Martha are going to be escorted to an adult camp to learn more about their opportunities in the new world." "Sheila, how could you do this?" "You betrayed us." "You betrayed everyone." "Sheila." "[DOOR CLOSES THEN CHILDREN MURMURING]" "Don't worry, Sheila." "Your mom will understand in time." "And thank you for your integrity and commitment to duty." "You've made the camp and me very proud." "And I know all of you out there will do the same." "This is the key to understanding the triskelion." "One entity can merge with another to make a whole greater than the sum of its parts." " We need to talk to Lexi." " Not now." "She's in the middle of a teaching." "I don't care what she's doing." "We need to talk to her." "Alone." "Now." "We can talk now." "Here." "With everyone." "Last night, I followed you into the woods." "I saw who you were meeting with." "Yes?" " An Espheni." " Don't question Lexi like this, Ben." "Shut up, Lourdes." "Please drop the high priestess routine." "You're not fooling anyone." "Yes, I talked to an Espheni." "Just like I talk to all of you." "I'm the bridge between the species." "I trusted you, Lexi." "We all did." "And now we find out you're meeting with the enemy." "LEXI:" "I know you're angry, but you're putting this place in danger." "You shouldn't have brought them." "You made a promise, Maggie." "[GASPS THEN SCREAMING]" "What are you doing?" "Lexi." "Lexi, did you--?" "Did you break her wrist?" "She'll be all right." "[MAGGIE GROANS THEN GRUNTS]" "I didn't throw them away because I had a sneaking suspicion there was a reason you didn't want us to get rid of them." "So we'd be easier to kill." " Put your gun down, Maggie." " Everyone, calm down." "Maggie" "You lied to me, Lexi." "When did I lie to you, Maggie?" "I told you we'd be safe here and we are." "I told you that non-violence is the answer and it is." "Why are you meeting with an Espheni behind our backs?" "Because he's a part of me." "It's who I am." "What do they really want?" "The same thing I do." "The same thing we all do." " Peace." " You expect me to believe that?" " Lexi, what are you doing?" " I can tell you this." "If you raise your guns again, this place will no longer be safe." "For any of you." "If you don't believe me, shoot." "TOM:" "You see how narrow that is?" "It's not gonna take a big charge to sever it." "DINGAAN:" "Assuming that nitrate doesn't explode before you get there." "That metal coil attached to the Zeppelin powers the entire camp's grid." "You take out that tether, the walls are gonna come down." "What about those skitters guarding the camp?" "Draw them off with a distraction." "What distraction?" "Me." "What kind of distraction will you be?" "The kind that baits an overlord into overreacting into an ambush." "It's the same strategy that Geronimo used against the Mexican army at Guadalupe." "The legend is it was the feast of Saint Jerome." "Local bishop and all the army brass are gathered together in celebration, all decked out in their finery." "Out of the desert comes this lone Apache brave." "Unarmed, wearing a cotton shirt and breechcloth moccasins." "Having already had a bit to drink, the Mexican soldiers start to taunt him." "Point at him." "Laugh at him." "From inside his shirt, the brave pulls out a small bow." "Shoots the bishop through the neck and walks." "Not runs, walks back into the desert." "Mexican army jump on horseback and give chase." "Right into an ambush in a bottleneck canyon." "Priests, women standing on the parapets could only watch as the entire Mexican army is annihilated in this Apache crossfire." "When it's all over, the brave stands on a rock above the dying soldiers, then he listens to them beg for mercy." "Pray to Saint Jerome, Saint Geronimo, for deliverance." "That's how Geronimo got his name." "That's how he got his revenge." "That's what we're gonna do." "We're gonna bait them into an ambush." "What if history doesn't repeat itself?" "What if they don't respond as you predict?" "I die doing something I didn't have to do." "We're all going to die." "None of us have to do a thing." "Can't save everyone." " I have to think of myself." " We have to save everyone." "Look, let's say you put on your Faraday suit and you escape alone." "To what?" "To go live in a cave until they find you and drag you to another camp?" "I'll stay here." "Hole up." "Until something" "Everyone left behind is gonna be skitterized by the Espheni in a matter of days." "Ninety seconds, Tom." "That's how long the suit will last." "That's how long we have to climb the fence assuming the bomb doesn't combust." "We still have to get to the tether." "Set the explosive and hope the charge is strong enough to actually cut it." "You've already lost everyone you've ever cared about." "The only thing that's kept me going these last three years has been the 2nd Mass." "My new family." "I want you to be a part of it." "Without family, life's not much worth living." "[GRUNTING]" "Oh, no, thanks." "Save it." "ANTHONY:" "It's quiet." "It's too quiet." "That's what people in movies always say before the bad guys attack." "That's why I said it." "Good to get this waiting over with." "We have to just keep heading to the west." "The skitter told Denny Lexi is to the west." " Anne, are you okay?" "I'm" " Unh." "Anne, turn over." "When was the last time you had something to eat?" "Anne." "I don't know." "I don't remember." "You didn't get any rations?" "Anne." "Anne." "Anne." "They're going to break us." "No." "We just have to stay strong." "They brainwashed a girl into betraying her parents, and the other kids clapped." "I know." "I've seen it before." "Well, it was my first time." "And I am not sticking around for another." "What if the next Bill or Martha is someone we know?" "Your family." "What if we become Sheila?" "I'll die before they turn me." "Maybe you're tougher than me." "But I feel like the longer I stick around, the more they're gonna get to me." "I know how I am." "I have got to get out of here before they break me." "I was the same way when I first came here." "But I didn't give in." "The more I told myself to be strong, the stronger I got." "You're stronger than you think, Mira." "I saw some wire cutters in the maintenance shed during chore detail." "Tell me you didn't take them." " Mira, they don't miss anything here." " Of course not." "I'm just saying." " We could cut the fence" " How far do you think we're gonna get?" "I thought you wanted to escape." "I do." "But we gotta play along right now." "Okay?" "Listen." "We graduate from the camp with honors." "And then they set us free to go round up terrorists." "When we're out, we're gonna warn everyone about the sick crap going on here." "[SCHOOL BELL RINGING]" "GIRL [OVER PA]:" "The earth is a gift." "ALL:" "The new coalition must protect it with our Espheni brothers." "Joined together, we will build a beautiful world." "Everybody up." "Now." "MAN:" "Get up." "Hurry up." "Fall in." "Found it" "Under an empty bed, sir." "KENT:" "Who took these?" "Someone confess, or you all will be punished for one person's crime." "I'm gonna count to three." "One." " Two." "MATT:" "Those are mine." "I had high hopes for you, Matt." "I'm very disappointed." "I'm afraid your training is going to be much more unpleasant from here on out." "TOM:" "What you're looking at is a model of the ghetto we've been living in for the last four months ever since the walls came down." "Tomorrow, I have a summit meeting with our overlord to report on my progress convincing you all to surrender." "But instead, I'm gonna initiate a confrontation that should bait ever skitter sentry in the ghetto into giving chase." "I'll travel north along the main street here." "Then turn east at their main guard tower." "Eleven second interval between skitter guard shifts, that's our window." "If I time it just right, I should be able to draw them together here at the exact same time." "When they're focused on me, Dingaan wearing a Faraday suit, is gonna climb a post that generates the electrical fence here on the opposite side of the ghetto at the closest proximity to the tether." "Colonel Weaver, Tector, provide cover from the alley just opposite if he needs it." " Pope, you'll join them." " With what weapons there, chief?" "We've pieced together a pressure cannon we can rig up." "Should buy Dingaan time." "After Dingaan makes it over, he's gonna find his way to the base of that tether." "He's gonna set the explosives that will sever it." "That will bring the wall down allowing Hal a chance to lead the population out through the sewer tunnels before the Espheni ever realize they're gone." "How are you gonna get away?" "You've got reinforcements outside." "They're gonna be on your ass." "TOM:" "Because I'll be leading them into a trap." "Here, where Colonel Weaver and I spent months studying every nook and cranny." " Structural weaknesses." " Exactly." "This building will be rigged with explosives." "So knock on wood, if everything goes as" "[POPE WHISTLING]" "Sorry." "Uh, for a minute there, I thought I was passing by a graveyard." "If Dingaan doesn't cut this tether, you're the one trapped." "Dingaan will cut the tether." "I will draw their attention." "You'll lead everybody out." "Why have every skitter in the vicinity chasing after you?" "If they're chasing me, they won't be chasing you." "Well, I think it's great." "I think it's a fantastic plan." "Has zero chance of success." "What the hell?" "What's this Faraday suit?" "How do we know this thing's gonna work?" "It Will." "POPE:" "How do we know Dingaan is not gonna hop the fence and skedaddle?" " He won't." " Why do you all of a sudden trust this guy?" "You've known Dingo briefly." "I've been with you from the start." "You don't trust me?" "I don't trust you because all you do is drive people apart like you're trying to do now." "The only way we're gonna survive this is if we work together." "Regardless of how we feel about each other we have no choice." "In two days, this entire camp is scheduled for processing, whatever that means." "Mutation." "And God knows what." "Humanoid skitters." "According to you." "I am not buying into the scare tactic." "Anybody got any real questions?" "No?" "Good." "We got a lot of work to do." "Let's get to it." "Oh, now this is what I call Hell's Kitchen." "Peroxide, duct tape, baking soda, acetone, ammonium nitrate." "Let's make some bombs." "Ha-ha-ha!" "[WHISTLES]" "MAN 1:" "Come on, let's go." "MAN 2:" "It's on." "Hurry." "Come on." "WOMAN:" "Let's go." "MAN 2:" "Move, move." "Come on." " Next group will be along in 15 minutes." " Take care of each other." "WOMAN:" "Yeah." " I told you not to make groups too big." "If skitter guards find out the population's trying to escape, the whole thing's over." "Fifteen people in 15-minute intervals." "Got that?" "Don't be seen, okay?" "Okay." "MAN:" "They're coming out now." "TECTOR:" "Here's some more charges." "Be careful when you're handling them." "Ammonium nitrate's very" "Unstable." "No juggling." "Got it." "Careful." "That's the last of the load-bearing beams." "Don't want this place to collapse yet." "You forget I was a general contractor for ten years." "We got about 12 charges set." "Should be enough to pulverize this joint." "Ooh-whee." "Hal, how goes the exodus?" "We moved the first half of the population into the tunnels to avoid detection." "They're snuggled up, waiting for us for tomorrow." "See that?" "He does listen." "Do another sweep." "Make sure nobody gets left behind." "Yes, sir." "Why are you awake?" "Hard to sleep when you got rats in your brain." "Oh, well, maybe this will help." "What?" "Have you been holding out on me?" "To this mission." "[COUGHS]" "Yeah." " That's it." " And to your daughter on her birthday." "Thanks for remembering." "I can't forget." "Um..." "I wonder what Anne's doing." "Probably kicking back on a beach deep into her third Mai Tai helping the cabana boys adjust their umbrellas." "[LAUGHING]" "Yeah, that sounds about right." "DENNY:" "ls it a fever?" "ANTHONY:" "I don't think so." "She's been going too hard." "Her body finally shut down without her permission." "DENNY:" "It's okay." "Make sure she's warm." "KAREN:" "It's a powerful thing, the maternal instinct." "Such a beautiful baby." "Don't touch my baby." "KAREN:" "It's not your baby." "It's our baby." "[ANNE SCREAMS]" "[HEAVY FOOTSTEPS]" "MAN:" "I almost didn't recognize you without your costume." "You've made the right decision to submit, Tom Mason." "Resistance will only ensure the extinction of your species." "The deal's off." "And this is your last chance to surrender." "And this is your last chance to recant before you're taken from this prison and sent away for processing." "I take it that's a "no"?" "[ALIEN  MAN SCREAMING]" "[ALIENS SHRIEKING]" "Oh, God!" "Sound the alarm!" "I want all arms brought to bear on Mason!" "Take him alive!" "I want him!" "Bring him to me!" "That's our cue, boys." "Go time." "[GROANING]" " You all right?" " My hand." "Southeast guys are right on time." "Whoa, northeast guys are a little early." "I can't feel my hand." "Someone needs to get into the suit now or Tom will die." "I just missed my turn." "[GRUNTING]" "No." "You are not putting on no suit." "You got a heart condition." " Nothing wrong with my heart." " Hearts work on electrical pulses." "The wall could kill you." "I'll go." "This whole thing goes sideways, right?" "At least I won't have to be here anymore." "Yeah, I get it." " You'll get out." "You'll just skedaddle." " Just like Tom said, right?" "We all gotta start trusting each other." "It starts now." "Give me the suit." "He's right." "Okay." "WEAVER:" "You want the suit?" "Go ahead." " Give me the suit." " Come on, help me." " Remember you get one chance with this charge." " One chance." " Green wire." "Red wire." " Red wire." "Green wire." "No." "Green wire, red wire." "Twist." "Beep-beep-beep-beep-boom." " Boom." "Beep-boom." "Got it." "DINGAAN:" "Okay?" " You only get 90 seconds." "Otherwise-- POPE:" "To get over." " Fried Pope." " No." "Vaporized Pope." "Understand?" "Here's your bomb." "We'll be ready to give you cover in 30 seconds." "Good luck." "WEAVER:" "Go."

"HAL:" "All right, come on, people." "Get the lead out." "Be careful." "Help each other." "It's all good." "Is that everybody?" "We did a final sweep." "It's everybody we can find." "Come on, guys." "Just a little bit farther." "He's gonna bail." "Save himself." "I knew I should have gone." "[GROANS]" "Thought I was gonna have to shoot him." " He's not gonna have enough time." " Before the suit falls apart." "[CHATTERING]" "HAL:" "Good work today, guys." "We're good." "Hurry up, Ellen." "All right." "Now we wait." "Don't rush me, Henry." "Okay." "They're gonna leave us."

"Anthony, send three scouts to explore the area." "Out to a perimeter of five miles." "Every direction but east." "Of course." " Thanks, Denny." " Why?" "Lexi's close." "Well, how do we know Lexi is close?" "I had a dream." "Son of Tom Mason." "BEN:" "Lexi." "I want to believe that you're the reason the Espheni haven't attacked us here." "But you can't blame Maggie or anyone for being uneasy." "Listen." "I don't hear anything." "Listen." "They're almost here." "I hear things that you can't." "I see things that you can't." "It scares me." "I need you brother." "Sister." "Lourdes." "Lourdes." " Anne?" " Ben." "Ha, ha!" "I can't believe you're here." " You better believe it." "Are you all right?" " I'm okay."

"Yes." "You can't beat them alone." "Good idea." "Why didn't I think Of that?" "Thought we were toast when you dropped that backpack." " You dropped the backpack?" " I dropped nothing."
