"Where's Colin?" "He's looking to perfect his technique." "Oh!" "I'm sorry." "Sorry." "I didn't see you." "Because you weren't looking where you were going." "I told you, you gotta open your eyes when you're sliding through the vortex!" "Look, I've been a horse and buggy man most of my life." "Warp speed's a new concept for me." "Yeah." "Well, you'll get hip to it." "I just hope I survive your learning curve." "Okay, you guys!" "Where are we?" "The Garden of Eden?" "Listen." "Oh!" "Wow!" "It's beautiful!" "Please tell me we're here for at least a week." "Sorry." "Just a day." "Waterfall's making me thirsty." "You think it's safe to drink?" "I don't know." "Was there dysentery in the Garden of Eden?" "There's one way to find out." "Whoa!" "Looks like somebody nuked him." "Yeah." "They cut off his right hand, too." "Cover." "Come on." "Cover." "Cover." "You still want to stay here a week?" "What if you found a portal to a parallel universe?" "What if you could slide into a thousand different worlds where it's the same year and you're the same person, but everything else is different?" "And what if you can't find your way home?" "I tracked this one." "He was my kill." "He was." "But you didn't get a shot off." "Because you didn't give me a chance to." "And you already had one kill today." "Are you pouting, Kryoptus?" "How terribly human of you." "I was speaking the truth." "I didn't know that was considered human." "The truth is I fired the shot." "This kill is mine." "Those are the rules." "You think I don't know the rules?" "If I don't take a human soon, General Kronus will banish me." "You'll get your kills." "But I get this one's numbers." "Take the eyes." "No." "General Kronus' orders." "It's my kill." "I haven't developed a taste for them." "How terribly human of you." "If this is the Garden of Eden, we just found the serpent, the Kromaggs." "Are you sure?" "They look different than the ones we've run into before." "Colin's right." "They look, I don't know, softer, somehow." "Almost human." "Doesn't matter what they look like." "I spent three months in their freaking jail, so I can smell them." "Oh, my God!" "Check it out." "Must be some kind of ID." "He's been branded like cattle." "Hey, guys." "Look at all this stuff." "A compass, a tin of black, greasy stuff." "And this strange knife." "Yeah." "This is night camouflage." "Oh, this is truly inspired." "Look at all this stuff." "A knife blade, a saw, a screwdriver." "What's this?" "You'll never use it." "Well, what's with all the tack gear, huh?" "Think we slid into another war zone?" "Maybe some kind of war game." "A game?" "Where the score is kept with dead bodies." "Or human hands." "Well." "I'm not gonna be a trophy on somebody's wall." "I say we keep moving." "Yeah." "There're bound to be a lot of other Maggs hanging around in the woodworks." "Come on." "Let's go." "Keep your eyes peeled." "Human targets." "I wouldn't expect any less of the Maggs." "No shell casings." "They must use strictly energy weapons." "Shh." "Vehicle." "Up there." "Sir." "I heard Kyra made one confirmed kill today, sir." "Possibly a second." "She's learning to fetch faster than the dogs." "Yes, sir." "Two more and she qualifies for elite warrior status." "I can count." "It's a shame that a Dynasty general must dirty his hands with these Humagg mongrels." "All great civilizations used slaves, Corporal." "I think we just got a look at the top brass." "I say we take them out now and save ourselves a headache later." "Let's not rush into anything." "We slide in 18 hours maybe we should just sort of hide until then." "No." "Remmy's got a point." "I'm not saying we go in swinging." "But we should find out what the Maggs are doing here and..." "I got her." "What?" "Don't shoot!" "Don't shoot!" "All right." "We need some info." "Who are you?" "Who are you?" "The people who just took your weapon." "So drop the attitude." "Okay." "Okay." "Okay." "The name's Jenny Anderson." "I'm Quinn." "That's my brother Colin." "That's Maggie." "That's Rembrandt." "You must be newbies." "Where are your tattoos?" "We don't have tattoos." "All the humans have tats." "Where did you come from?" "We kind of lost our way and stumbled into this place." "Yeah." "Well, my advice is to stumble back out." "This is a limited stay kind of resort." "Limited by those knuckle draggers with the laser guns." "Kromaggs." "Whatever." "All I know is they shoot first and they never ask questions." "How did you get here?" "I was asleep in bed one night and this bright light shined in through my window." "Next thing I know, I was being dragged out in this crazy spaceship." "I figured I'd get probed and I'd wind up on the "Jerry Springer Show. "" "But instead, it's alien safari time and I'm the endangered species." "So they're hunting you?" "Me and six other freaked-out people." "They slapped tattoos on our arms, gave us each a piece and cut us loose." "If we can survive 20 days, then we can go home." "I'm on day 18." "Did you know a guy with a blonde buzz cut, about six feet?" "Sure." "It's Jake." "Insurance guy from Michigan." "You seen him?" "He's dead?" "I'm afraid so." "That takes us down to six." "Where are the others?" "Hiding out in some bombed-out building." "They'll be stoked to see reinforcements." "So, are we friends or are we enemies?" "Come on." "Man, this place has gone to hell." "Hey!" "Deadbeats!" "Come on out!" "We got company." "So where are they?" "Say hello to the troops." "Sorry, but those aliens can make themselves look like us." "And we already lost two people to ambushes." "Where's Jake?" "Dead." "These guys saw the uglies waste him." "Damn it." "How do you know they didn't do it?" "Relax." "We're all human." "We want to help you people." "But we don't have a lot of time." "Help us how?" "Look, we've had some experience with the creeps." "Okay?" "Together we can work out a plan of attack." "Plan of attack?" "We're not gonna attack anything." "We're just looking to survive." "To survive, you have to go on the offensive." "You don't get it." "I'm short, man." "Midnight tonight, I've got my 20 days in and I'm out of here." "No, no, no." "You don't get it." "Think the Maggs are just gonna let you go home?" "Say, "Hey, good job." "You beat us fair and square." "See you. "" "You don't go after them, man, they're gonna come after you." "That's 100% guaranteed." "I know the general direction of where they camp out." "Oh, this is crazy." "Let's do it." "You're leading the board." "Am I?" "By two kills." "But you know that." "Has your Kromagg side developed to the point where you can read my mind now?" "No." "Just your face." "You haven't stopped smiling all day." "Don't you like it when I smile?" "If it's for the right reason." "Look at that." "You're smiling now." "Attention!" "I understand that you had a productive day." "Yes, sir." "Two more solo kills and you qualify as an elite warrior." "Does that please you?" "My only pleasure is to serve the Dynasty, sir." "For 10 generations, the Elites have been the pride of the Dynasty." "It sickens me to think that their ranks are sullied by your human blood." "Human blood is only good for spilling, sir." "Uh-huh." "And as for you, perhaps you would perform better with a number on your arm." "Maybe it would give you more incentive?" "As you wish, sir." "Was there anything left over from your last kill, private?" "No." "They were both head shots, sir." "Pity." "Perhaps next time you could aim lower." "Dismissed." "General." "A moment?" "What is it?" "Fresh human eyes." "So, you do have some value, after all." "Where did these come from?" "Kyra's last kill." "I would hate to think she was serving a Kromagg Dynasty general with anything less than total honesty." "That's for you to evaluate, sir." "This whole area is lousy with those creeps." "We figured their HQ must be close by." "So you know who these aliens are?" "They're called Kromaggs and they are not aliens." "Could've fooled me." "Well, they're actually from Earth." "Just a different Earth than this one." "Right." "So, what do they want with us?" "Well, that's the question." "The ones who killed your friend looked different from any Kromaggs we've seen before." "Maybe they're testing some kind of new warrior." "Look out!" "Go!" "Go!" "Make a run for it!" "Split up!" "Don't shoot!" "I'm not part of the game." "Kill him." "Look!" "He's not marked." "Where did you come from?" "We'll find out soon enough." "Stamina is just incredible." "This is really bad coffee or pretty good soup." "You are such a wiseass!" "Hey?" "What's the matter?" "Where's Colin?" "They took him away." "They captured him." "Where's Jen?" "She tried to lead the Maggs away from us." "And they executed her." "She told you to just lay low!" "Hey!" "You think I like this?" "Huh?" "Two more days and she was out of here." "I'm telling you." "The Maggs are not letting anybody out of here alive!" "Now, I say we get our weapons and we go get our man." "That's just what they want you to do." "The first week I was here, they caught this surfer kid from San Diego, Tim." "They shot him in the leg and they nailed him to a billboard." "After eight hours of screaming, someone tried to get him." "The uglies had a twofer that day." "I'm sorry about your friend." "We'll give you some weapons if you want to go after him, but don't expect any help from us." "How did you get here?" "I was brought here." "Abducted from my home by you people." "We keep close track of our inventory here." "We have no record of your arrival." "Where do you come from?" "What is this?" "It's just a timepiece." "Why is it ticking down?" "Our technical staff will take this apart and find out what it is." "Then perhaps they will do the same to you." "What are you looking at?" "Nothing, sir." "Fascinating to see one in captivity, isn't it?" "Go on." "Take a closer look." "He's even uglier than you, isn't he?" "Yes, sir." "You still owe me a token from your last kill." "Would you like to kill this human?" "Present his eyes to me?" "As you wish, sir." "Eyes are so much better when eaten fresh." "Corneas nice and tender." "Pupils still dilating." "He is afraid." "Can't you sense it?" "Yes, but strange." "It's not fear for himself." "There are others." "Very good." "Your mental training is proceeding nicely." "Perhaps there are other things we can learn from this human." "We will save his eyes for later." "I will have everything I need soon enough." "Whether you wish to share it with me or not, the human mind is so frail," "So effortlessly opened." "They grabbed him over here." "Colin's?" "Yeah." "And they headed this way." "We have recently discovered an undocumented human in the field." "No tattoo." "No record of being deposited here." "It's possible that he is an infiltrator, and there may be more." "Anyone who captures a live unmarked human will be rewarded with two kills." "Some of us could use the practice." "Do you enjoy watching people struggle?" "When I see a human, they usually do not struggle for long." "Human behavior is inexplicable." "Even if you get those restraints off, you will still be imprisoned by the force barrier." "My mother always told me hope springs eternal." "Your mother?" "Yes." "Explain to me." "Who is mother?" "You don't know who your mother is?" "My interaction with humans is limited." "Limited to killing them?" "I asked you a question, human." "Maybe you have a different word for it." "Your mother is the woman who gave birth to you, who raised you." "I was born in a breeding colony." "I was raised to serve the Dynasty." "A breeding colony?" "Yes." "You're half-human." "I was bred from a human female." "Yes." "Your mother." "The human female was simply used as a vessel for my incubation." "An unfortunate necessity." "That's barbaric." "More barbaric than the vicious weapon you humans used to drive us from our world?" "What are you talking about?" "The residual effects left Kromagg women genetically mutated." "Two days after giving birth, a Kromagg woman dies." "A death sentence for our species." "The Dynasty had no other choice but to crossbreed." "You created us." "Not the Kromaggs." "I've been looking for you." "Why is the force barrier down?" "I was interrogating the prisoner." "Why?" "To hunt the human animal, it may help us to know him." "He is fascinating in his way." "The General has ordered us back in the field." "When you're finished with your new plaything, perhaps you will find the time to return to your duty." "Kryoptus!" "Stop!" "What?" "I have weapons inspection in 10 minutes." "Are you jealous that I was talking to the human?" "What?" "Jealousy." "It's when you fear a rival, or when you're suspicious of someone's fidelity." "It happens to humans." "Especially when they..." "When they care for someone." "You say that as if it should have some meaning to me." "It might." "To your human side." "We all wear the stigma of our humanity on our faces." "It is a shame that I strive to overcome." "Make no mistake, it is our Kromagg blood that makes us who we are." "Warriors." "Why do you think we hunt the humans?" "So we will never forget what they are." "Prey." "Non-conductive." "The blood trail ends here." "I guess he stopped bleeding." "Talk about your good news, bad news." "So which way now?" "If the Kromaggs have their base hidden, we could walk right past it and never see it." "We could be looking for days." "We don't have days." "No kidding." "Yeah, well, I bet one of those guys know." "I say we grab one of them." "Easier said than done." "Take the left." "Those Maggs are trained in guerrilla warfare." "If they're trained to hunt humans, let's give them one to hunt." "Hey!" "Come out, human, and you won't be harmed." "Hands on your head." "I was just about to say the same thing to you." "Drop it." "Come on, Magg." "Make my day." "Kill me and be done with it." "That's not really our style." "Then I'll do it myself." "Cuff her!" "All right." "Come on." "Back!" "Let's get out of here." "Kryoptus!" "Kyra!" "Go!" "I'll follow you." "Go!" "Go." "Remmy!" "Hey." "You okay?" "I don't know." "I just feel like I'm out of gas." "It's all right, Rem." "Just lie down here." "All right." "Lie down, Remmy, and rest." "How you feeling?" "I'm cool, man." "I just gotta catch my breath." "I feel like I've been kicked in the stomach by a horse." "Okay." "You sit back, Rem." "We'll take care of you." "What's the composition of the laser?" "Tell me or you lose a knee!" "You won't." "Try me!" "It's not a laser." "It emits a focused beam of high-energy particles." "What generates the particle stream?" "A magnetically-shielded nobelium core." "Quinn." "What's that?" "Nobelium, it's a..." "It's..." "It's highly radioactive." "It's like he got shot with a poison arrow." "If the blast doesn't kill him, radiation poisoning surely will." "Where are your friends?" "What friends?" "They captured Kyra." "Tell me their location or I will kill you!" "This is really an ingenious little tool!" "When I get out of here, I will use it to gut you." "Sorry about this." "I'm sure Kyra is all right." "My friends would never hurt her." "You care for her, don't you?" "I serve the Kromagg Dynasty." "Nothing else is of value to me." "I don't believe that." "I hope you're able to tell her how you feel." "It would be a shame if she never knew." "Band-Aids and Bactine." "I can't use any of this." "I could probably make a field dressing out of this gauze." "And then what?" "That laser blast is poisoning him." "If we can keep him stable, maybe the next slide will take us someplace where we can get him help." "How much time?" "Three hours." "And we don't even know where Colin is." "She does." "Maybe you haven't noticed, but she doesn't seem to like you." "There's clearly a human quality to her." "All we have to do is appeal to it." "Is that that human quality she showed when she was trying to claw your eyes out?" "Give me a half an hour with her." "I'll get the information for you." "You gotta look closer." "In her eyes." "She's trying to act tough, but she's really scared." "Good." "She's alone and afraid." "If we can get her to trust us, maybe we can convince her to contact her base." "Have a swap between her and Colin." "Yeah." "When you're through jerking around, give me a call." "At least let me kill her." "What do you think that guy did on his world?" "IRS auditor?" "He's right about one thing." "Getting that Kromagg to help us is a long shot." "Maggie." "It's our only shot." "I'll do this." "Are you a traitor?" "No, sir." "I almost hoped that you had betrayed me." "The only alternative is that you must be stupid beyond belief!" "I have failed you, my General." "My life is yours." "And don't think that I won't take it." "However, I have decided to give you one last chance to redeem yourself." "Find the human and his companions." "Bring them to me and your entry into the Elites will be assured." "Yes, sir." "Don't come back alone." "All right." "You are free." "And you get water." "Now, you get up and stretch your legs out." "What happened?" "You injure your ankle?" "Let me see." "Yeah." "It is definitely swollen." "What is it about you that desires to see me healed?" "Call it a frailty of humanity." "And I aim to please." "Why?" "What weakness compels you to aid others?" "We consider it a strength." "You should try it sometime." "It is not in our nature." "I'm not so sure about that." "Sorry." "I was curious." "You're different than the others." "You're more like us." "And you definitely have a strong grip." "I am half-human." "A product of the colonies." ""Colonies"?" "Is your mother being held captive in a Kromagg breeding camp?" "Mother." "The other human, the one like you, mentioned his mother." "Like me?" "My brother?" "Colin?" "Brother?" "You were both bred from the same woman?" "Yeah." "Well, not exactly bred." "We're family." "Family?" "He wants to kill me." "He probably thinks the feeling is mutual." "He is human." "So am I. And I don't want to kill you." "Nice." "Airline food in a tube." "I thought you said you didn't want to kill me." "Not intentionally." "Didn't you ever want to find your family?" "Know who your mother is?" "The Dynasty forbids such inquiries." "Interest in our human heritage is not encouraged." "I'm looking for a breeding colony myself." "I think a friend of mine might've been shipped there." "Her name is Wade Wells." "How could you possibly get to a breeding colony?" "The same way I got here." "Sliding." "Sliding?" "Translocation technology is forbidden to humans." "Punishment is death." "I know." "Why would you tell me this?" "Because you can help me." "For that, I'm willing to take a chance, extend myself." "It's how we humans build trust." "I can't help you." "Yes, you can." "You've seen my brother." "You know where he's being held." "You expose yourself for another being?" "Sure." "Especially if that being is a member of my family." "See, it's something Kromaggs don't understand." "But I'm hoping the human side of you does." "Quick!" "Quinn!" "Hurry!" "Hang on, Remmy." "It's okay." "I can..." "I can make it to the stage." "I can make it!" "Don't talk." "Don't talk." "Try and sleep." "That's no problem." "That's no problem." "I just need the..." "Quinn, he's burning up!" "Please, Kyra." "You've gotta help us." "Hang on, buddy." "Remmy?" "Remmy." "Stay with me here." "Remmy!" "Remmy?" "Remmy!" "Remmy, stay with me!" "Remmy!" "Remmy!" "Remmy." "Stay with me, man!" "You can't die on me!" "Remmy!" "Remmy!" "Remmy!" "MAGGIE." "Remmy Remmy!" "Remmy, stay with me!" "Please, Remmy!" "Please, Remmy!" "Remmy!" "Remmy!" "Remmy!" "Remmy, stay with me!" "Remmy!" "Remmy, please!" "Remmy!" "Remmy." "Stay with me, Remmy!" "Remmy." "Stay with me!" "It's not your time." "Remmy!" "Remmy." "Remmy." "Remmy." "Remmy." "Remmy." "Thank God." "Q" " Ball." "I saw the white light." "It was calling me, calling me home." "I heard your voice." "You brought me back." "You brought yourself back, Remmy." "It wasn't your time." "Quinn." "I'm so dry." "I need something to drink." "You know the Kromagg healing technique." "Yes." "You wanted me to feel my human side." "But I am Kromagg, too." "Well, it does have its advantages." "Why did you save me?" "Because you needed my help." "How does it feel?" "It felt fine." "Thank you." "Can you do something about this?" "Colin!" "Oh, Colin!" "Thank God!" "How did you escape?" "I used that trick I saw on that "Penn Teller"specialon thelastworld." "Hello, again." "Colin." "Hello." "Is she supposed to be here?" "Quinn and Maggie snatched her to try to get her to take us to you." "She's part of the team now." "Fifteen minutes." "Why don't you come with us?" "There's someone here." "I have to show him what you've shown me." "That we cannot deny half of who we are." "Do you think he'll understand?" "I don't know." "But I have to try." "In a way, he is my family." "I desire to touch you." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "We don't just touch anyone." "But I see in your eyes that you will allow it." "The eyes never lie." "Goodbye." "Kyra!" "Waste him!" "Get up!" "Get away from her, human." "Kryoptus." "Kyra, step over to me." "I'll share these kills with you." "We'll join the Elites together." "No." "I said come to me!" "No!" "I don't care about the Elites." "I won't kill these humans." "As you wish, Kyra." "I'll take these kills for myself." "How much time?" "Three more minutes." "All right." "We'll keep our heads down till then." "It's gonna be a long three minutes." "Down!" "Down!" "Move out!" "Move out!" "Down!" "Jammed!" "Kyra, come with me!" "We will clear your mind of the human poison." "Two minutes!" "All right, let's go." "When do you plan to shoot, girl, tomorrow?" "I'm out of ammo." "Stand aside, Kyra." "No." "Don't make me kill you." "Listen to me." "We don't have to be killers." "It is what they've made us, not who we are." "These humans have twisted your mind." "They've opened it." "We're not just Kromagg." "We're human, too." "There's a whole new world I've just begun to discover filled with human emotion." "Human emotions are a sickness!" "You're wrong." "They're part of us." "To deny their existence is to deny who we are." "I can't kill who I am." "Who you are?" "Look at me, Kyra." "Look at my face." "This is who we are." "We are Kromagg." "If I could cut the human part from my body like a tumor, I would." "Just because it's a part of us doesn't mean we have to embrace it." "What's happened to you?" "What's happened to you, Kryoptus?" "It's time." "Nobody move!" "I will kill you all!" "No, you won't." "You won't kill me." "You have feelings for me." "I can feel them." "Go!" "Quinn, let's go!" "Go!" "You're right, Kyra." "I can't deny who I am." "Kryoptus?" "The humans killed her?" "No, I did." "The humans had turned her." "She was helping them escape." "I had no choice." "And the humans?" "Three dead inside." "Six more escaped." "Mmm-hmm." "Three kills." "Well done." "You surprise me." "Welcome to the Elites." "Thank you, sir." "Move out!" "There are humans in the area!" "Dispose of this." "Yes, sir."
