"Hi Mom." "The noise?" " TV." " That's just the TV." "We're watching a DVD." "No, I won't be late." "What?" "Mom!" "I'll be fine what um..." " What do you think is going to happen?" " Run!" "Mom, um..." "I'll call you back." "What's going on?" "Come on." "Ouch." "Oh." "Primeval 5x4 Episode 5.4" " June 21, 2011" "So..." "I leave you for a matter of days and in that time you nearly destroy the ARC and you turn out to be either a visitor from the future or, in fact, and I think this is the" " more likely option, clinically mad." " The former." "But then I would say that if I was clinically mad right?" "Did you have security checks ***?" "Sorry sir the machine that checks whether people are from the future was out of order." "I'll do the sarcasm..." "if you don't mind." "So Philip is in league with Helen and the machine he's building is the trigger to the end of the world." " In a nutshell." " I'll talk to the minister see if I can get a DA25, get him shut down." "As very last minute attempts to save the world go, that's very bureaucratic." " Do we have an alternative?" " Yes." "I go to New Dawn and shut it down." "I gave him the security codes; he's got the schematics to the whole building, if he can make it to the machine he should be able to sabotage it." "I'm going to need you to distract Philip and keep him away from the machine and buy me some time, okay?" "What an awkward silence." "Anything I should know?" "No, no, no, no." "Purely routine." "Well, thank you, dismissed." "Come on, those dinosaurs don't chase themselves." "So..." "Philip... what can I do for you?" "Matt..." "What if you're not supposed to stop the machine?" "What if it's actually your intervention that makes everything go wrong?" "I deal with that every day." "All I know is there's something I have to do and I really think this is it." "And if you're wrong?" "Well then, I'm responsible for the deaths of everybody on the planet." "Jess what have you got?" "Just give me a second, okay..." "it's somewhere in the city center." "You wouldn't mind telling me what's going on would you?" " James Lester." " You'd better switch on your TV, a T-Rex is rampaging through the city, it's mayhem." " Thank you." "Understood." " What is it?" "It seems our little secret's out." "Not exactly the moment for standing around watching the telly." "Matt, I'm going to see the minister." "I'll be in touch." "Oh... and if someone could think of a cover story for the six o'clock news." "Okay the plan stays exactly the same." "Jess you coordinate, Abby, Becker, Emily you're on the T-Rex." "Connor keep Philip here." "Connor!" "You coming?" "Final trials." "Remember?" "I've got a problem, in the lab, with the prototype." "I'm gonna need you to take a look at it." " So." " After you." "So." "Where is it?" "This way." "Jess, it's blocked." "I don't have time for this get another route." "The only route that's clear is the one place no one want's to be..." "Central Town." "Get me there." "Okay, well turn around and hang a left." "Okay." "This way." "Becker you find the T-Rex." "Help!" "Help me." "You have to help me my friend, Lacey, she's..." "Help me!" "Lacey!" "Please help my friend, she's hurt." " The thing attacked her." " Okay, let me see." " What's your name?" " Jenna." " Are you hurt?" " This wasn't supposed to happen we just wanted to go shopping." " Jenna me and you are gonna have to go, ok?" " But what about Lacey?" "There's nothing we can do." "She's dead Jenna." "I promise you I'll send someone back, I promise, ok, but we have to go now." "I'm sorry but I can't leave her." "Jenna!" "Jenna run to me." "Don't look at it just run to me." "Come on." "Jess." " T-Rex?" " We're still trying to track it down." "Don't bother, it's here." "Becker, Matt's found it." "80 street plaza." "Okay you move." "Stay down." "Stay down." "Stay down." "Hey!" "Look at me!" "I take it back." "These things can take down a fully grown T-Rex." "Eventually." "Well it's not the coupling transponder, but then I'm assuming that's the first thing you would have thought of." "Yeah." "Yeah I checked that." " It's the accelerator coil." " That was quick." "It's out of sync." "It's a good thing you couldn't start this." "The whole thing would've blown up." "Right, let's get going." "I'm--I'm gonna check this out." "Jess." " What have we got now?" " It's a second anomaly." "I don't believe it." "No." "No that must be some kind of glitch." "Please let this be some kind of glitch." "The anomalies they... they're opening up everywhere." "All over the world." "This is it." "Convergence is coming." "We're about to make history." "Let's leave the cleaning up job to the others." " Good luck." " You too." "Call in everyone who's off shift." "I don't care where they are, they're on duty." "There's going to be so many of you out in the field I'm going to assign team names." "Alpha, Delta and so on." "Matt you're not going to believe." "They're opening around the world." "It means it starts now." " What?" " Convergence." "Philip must have known it was coming so he's built his machine to coincide with" "***." "The Helles Convergence." "Multiple anomalies opening simultaneously all over the world." " Can you stop it?" " No, I'm not supposed to." "No one is." "Convergence is a natural phenomena." "I'm supposed to stop New Dawn which has been designed to interrupt convergence." "What if you don't?" "Then it's the start of the end." "How about I shot something." "Sorry." "Going crazy in here." "Listen Philip they've had to move your car cause it was blocking people in." " We're gonna have to wait." " No, that's alright we'll take yours." " Where is it." " Can I just ask you a question first?" "Every million years or so the magnetic poles of the earth reverse." "Anomalies are part of this transition." "In order to survive life on earth has to adapt to the new conditions, and it can." "As long as convergence is allowed to run it's natural path." "Which it has done every time until now." "You knew this was going to happen." "Yet when I told you about my theory of convergence you just dismissed it like it was nothing." "I couldn't support your theory Connor." "If I had you'd of become distracted working on contingency plans for the ARC." "Exactly, now we're not ready and people are going to die." "You're worng." "We are ready." "New Dawn is ready." "It needed to be finished on time and it is." "Philip's intervention is going to change that forever." "I needed to keep you focused." "Now where is your car?" "Follow me." "You will stop him." "Jess we're on our way to New Dawn." "The whole city's gridlocked." "Sorry." "New Dawn will open a stable manmade anomaly." "It will simultaneously close all the others while absorbing their power." "Just think about it, all that harnessed energy." "Alpha team what's your status." "Please respond." "We don't know what the consequences will be." "Of course I do." "New Dawn will save the world." "Look I know a shortcut." "Turn around just here." " There's no point." "Jess said" " Turn around just here." "You can bypass two city blocks this way." "Reinforcements needed." "Matt." "Connor's taking a shortcut." " I'm in gridlock." " Becker we've lost contact with Alpha team." "There's an incursion from the Pre-Cambrian." "Can you get there?" "We're on our way." " You're going to need breathing equipment." " Copy that Jess." "I'm clear of traffic." "Five miles from New Dawn." "Connor do you read me?" "We're here Jess." "Pre-Cambrian era." "Some sort of carnivorous world apparently." " No." " Jess we're at the incursion." "We're going in." "Jess we're gonna do a room to room search." " Ready?" " Ready." "Hey." "Oh..." " You hurt?" " Ouch." "I think..." "I think I'm all right." "What was that?" "***" "My leg's stuck." "There's a-- there's a crowbar in the boot." "We don't have time, but I'll send someone to help." "You're going to leave me?" "The convergence won't last long Connor." "I'm sorry you know." "I really am." "Philip!" "The machine doesn't save the world." "It destroys it." "You know that's not true because you helped design it." "It was a mistake." " You have to listen to me." "Matt said" " Matt is a solider" " a grunt." " He's from the future." "He was sent back because the world he was living in was dying." "Because it *** for them." "Because of the machine that we built." "***" "I can't let you turn it on." "You have no idea how ridiculous you look right now Connor." "See I know that you think you're doing the right thing." "But you couldn't be more wrong." "New Dawn kills everything." "That is pure nonsense." "You haven't given me a choice." "You see Connor..." "I never entirely trusted you." "Don't do this Philip." "Please." "You might need that." "Uhhh..." "Philip!" "Jess." "Matt-- can anybody hear me?" "Matt." "Matt I've just come from the minister's office." "How'd it go?" "His exact words, "World's in chaos, we've got dinosaurs rampaging in the streets and you're worried about Philip's research." "Have you gone completely insane?"" "That well huh?" "The official line is our only priority is managing the anomalies and the creature incursions." "Unofficially?" "Stop him..." "Do whatever you have to." "Blast." "Behind every speaker is a magnet." "Hey!" "Becker, Abby, I need you to split up." "Delta units *** malfunctioning." " Paper, scissors, stones?" " All right." " One, two, three." " Ha!" "Guess I'll go then." "Good luck with the job." "Connor." "Where are you?" "Listen I'm trapped and there's a" "Just get to Stanus street car park as soon as you can." "I'm on my way." " I've done the system analysis check." " Well done." "We have to do this during convergence." "Start up sequence commencing." " Okay?" " Um-hum." "Pterosaurs." "Right." "Come on." "Come on." "Hey." " There's a crowbar in the boot." " What?" " There's a crowbar in the" " I know." "Nice." "I just said there's a crowbar in the boot." " Connor." " What's it doing." "I'll get you out." " You all right?" " Uhh." "We need to get to New Dawn and help Matt." "But if Matt's right then that machine is more dangerous than all those creatures put together." "I helped build this." "I need to make it right." "I am so sorry... everything that we've been through, I should have trusted you." "Instead I put Philip's word above yours, I mean how" " Hey." " How could I even have done that?" "When I put my finger on your lips it means you stop talking." "Okay." "Sorry." "This is the part where you kiss me." " Ready to go do our job?" " Why not?" "Alpha team what's your status?" "Please respond." "Alpha team respond." "Ok, we've got another anomaly." "Cordinates 44' 75"." "Have we got any units available?" "Negative on response time." "Unit 8 can you hear me." "Are you availabe to move into position?" "How are we doing?" "There are too many." "I can't control it." "We need more medics," " more locking devices, more people." " You're doing fine." "Jess." "Look at me, Jess." "You are the hub of this operation." "You may not get the credit you deserve but you do a brilliant job, and if anyone can pull us through this, you can." "That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me." "I think it's really the nicest thing I've ever said to anyone, including my wife." " Do you mean it." " Every word." "Now get back to work before we both start crying about it." "And if it's personal you need I'll be clicking my heels." "What have you got for me in the field?" "Preferably something cuddly and vegetarian cause this is my best shirt." "To be honest I could really do with a hand here." " Sure that should be interesting." " Okay." "Show me which buttons to press." " There you go." " So..." "Becker what are your stats?" "Can you spare any men?" "Yeah, I'm a little bit busy at the moment." "How's the big picture?" "Not good." "Every time we lock an anomaly another one opens." "I think we might just about have this one." "Becker?" "Becker?" "Nine minutes to initiation." "Oh!" "Oh!" "Wait!" "Did you really think you'd get away with this?" "Take them out of the building." "Eight minutes to initiation." "I really wouldn't open that if I were you." "Seven minutes to initiation." "Hey." " Good to see you." " You too." "He's already started New Dawn." "Initialization." "There's still time." "Leave the machine to me." "You cover Connor, I'm going after Philip." "Pterosaurs." "Five minutes to initiation." "We don't have much time, come on." "Make sure nobody follows me." "Here we go." "Yes...." "Who's operating the satellite terminal?" "30 seconds till shutdown." " It's Connor" " Get him down from there." "I can do this." "Don't you love this." "Okay." "Here we go." "This is not good." "Damn it." "Philip's locked me out of the system." "Initiation reactivated." "Start up sequence commencing." "Um" " I don't know what to do." "I don't think I can hack this in time." "Too many..." "Connor." "I can't hear you." "Connor can you hear me?" "Shut it down." " You've got it all wrong Matt." " You two." "Move!" "Move!" " Shut it down now Philip." " Have you seen outside?" "Shut it down now." "It's chaos." "This machine will stop all that." "Nature has to be allowed to run it's own course." "You're about to destroy the world." "I've seen the results of your work." "Is that what you want for your legacy?" "There are dinosaurs roaming the streets." "That's what the ARC's for." "ARC has failed." "We don't need containment we need radical solutions." "What are you gonna do?" "Kill me?" "Yeah." "If I have to." "I don't believe you." "Ooh!" "Stop him." "Philip!" "Yes." "Back up." "Philip you don't know what you're gonna do!" "You really don't." " Philip." " I'm nearly" "No." "Three minutes to initiation." "Coupling transponder, accelerator coil..." "I can reverse the accelerator coil." "I can't believe it, there's another one." "It's outside." " In the car park." " Oh my God." "My new Jag's in the car park." "This time it's personal." "Stop!" "Start up sequence commencing." " Philip." "It's working." "Philip NO!" "Come on April." "Don't give me an excuse to fry you." "You wouldn't dare." "Five, Four, Three, Two, One..." "Execute final command." "Abby, Emily, get out of here." "Oy!" "Have you any idea how much that thing costs." "The only problem is... you believe the world will be destroyed when I switch this machine on." "And I believe it will be destroyed if I don't." "Philip." "You've gotta listen to me I've seen this." "You're gonna kill everything." "Power to the main turbine disrupted." "Only one of us can be right." "Auxiliary power activated." "You think I didn't anticipate Connor?" "No!" "No!" "Connor!" " No." "No." "Let me go." " Stop." "Stop." "Stop Abby." "What's going on?" "Cheer up man." "Everything's fine." "It's working." "Isn't it the most beautiful thing you ever saw in your life?" "They've all closed." " All of them?" " Every last one." "Is that good or... is that bad?" "We are receiving unconfirmed reports from around the globe." "the mysterious golden lights are vanishing." "Scientists have been unable"
