"I estimate our position is right about here." "This point." " I wanna get down right along this fault line." " Is this land?" "What is this?" "This is actually an underwater-configuration map." " A heat-sensitive map." " I've seen these." " Yeah, it's a brand-new development." " The Japanese have this." "That's right, Jack." "The Japanese developed it." "So the point is to head directly south, right along this line, until we get right here on the edge of this fault line." " You can figure that out?" " Yeah." "Actually, I've been around here." " Why don't you keep this?" " OK." "Go get some sodas and sandwiches." " Thanks, Jack." " OK." "All right, let's start with line three." " T-O-Z." " And the next line." "L-P-E-O."

" You need a hand?" " No." "No, thanks, Jack." "We're doing fine." "Excuse me." " What the hell is that?" " Who cares?" "You know, I bet they're dope peddlers."

"You know, I'm the captain." "Technically speaking, I have to know what's in there." "Yeah, but what we're doing is supposed to be a secret." "Kitty, I took a maritime oath." "A maritime oath!" "It forbids me to even reveal your names to anybody." "All right, I'll tell you." "But you can't let the others know that I told you anything." "They'd have to torture me."

" Why?" " I'm not like the other women you've known." " That's good news." "You're makin' me very curious about you." "Well, what if I trusted you with something very private?" "Oh, I can keep a secret." "I wouldn't tell anybody." "Not even our kids." "Look, I don't know what you're thinkin'." "But ifyou're thinkin' that I'm just out to nail you, that's not it at all."

"Get back!" "You get back!" "Oh, no." "Just put the towel down." "Just put it down and back away, please." "I'm sure you're bothered by what you saw, but relax..." " I don't wanna relax!" " Why not let us explain?" "Cos I don't wanna know anything." "And ifyou try to eat my face off, or take over my body, you're gonna be very sorry, mister." "You're gonna be very sorry!" "Face-eating, Jack?" "I've never heard of that." "Is that some sort of delicacy?" "No." "Forget I ever mentioned it." " Are you sure I shouldn't try it, Jack?" " I'm positive." "Walter, Jack is our friend." "Right, Jack?" "Friend..." "Friend!" "That's right." "Friend. 100%." "I'm your friend." "That's all I ever wanted to be." "Your friend." " But we do owe you an explanation." " No, you don't owe me anything." "You don't..." "Not even for the boat, honestly." "It's free." "Jack." "Of course we're gonna pay you for the boat." "We're honest." "Well, of course you're honest!" "Did I ever accuse you of being dishonest?" "I accused you of being from another planet." "But an honest planet." "Jack." "Jack, sit down." " I don't wanna sit down." " Jack, sit!" "Now, Jack, I want you to listen to me very carefully." "We're Antareans." "We come from a planet called Antarea." "Yeah, that's what I pretty much figured." "100 centuries ago, we had an outpost here on Earth, before the first upheaval." " Well, I think I'm better off not knowing." " Shh." "We were able to evacuate everyone except for my ground crew." " Ground crew?" " And now we've come back for them." "Boy." "I thought I'd been around." "Nothing like this has ever happened to me before." "Now, Jack, you could turn us in." "Or you could do something else to make things difficult for us." "But believe me, Jack, we will still get our friends back." "And the only thing that would happen is that we'd end up renting someone else's boat." "You know, I got left behind once." "It was in Coney Island." "I was nine." "It was pretty heavy for a nine-year-old." "My parents finally came back for me." "Of course." "And now we've come back." " So you're comin' back for your friends?" " Exactly." "Jack, this is the most important thing we've ever done." "You're not gonna hurt me, are you, Walt?" "All we need to do is to get our friends and leave." "And go... pfft?" " Yes." "Pfft." " Right." "Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft." " None of this is bad for America, I guess?" " Of course not." "Well, damn it, I'm in." "This..." "This is incredible." "Right." "Now, nothing's gonna fall off, is it?" "No." " Come on, Mr Lefkowitz." " You'll love it." " You'll be a new man, Bernie, believe me." " Remember, I said I'd look." " I'm not promising I'll get wet." " Fine." "Just look." "By the way, right here is where a crime is being committed." "Not by me, because I'm being carried." "Don't you worry, Bernie." "We'll take the fall for you." "Fall?" "That's another thing." "I fall, I break my hip, I can't sue anybody." " It's nice and warm, Bernie." " They're rocks." "What are rocks doing in a pool?" "In an ocean, fine." "There I expect to see plenty of rocks." "But in a pool?" "No." "Hah!" "Cowardly cowardly custard!" "Can't cut the mustard!" "Come on, Bernie!" "And it's Joe..." "Joe taking the lead..." "Come on!" "Come on, navy!" "Come on!" "Come on, you worn-out old pusses!" "Dig, dig, dig, dig, dig!" "I'll see you tomorrow." "Hey, fellas?" "Fellas, fellas, hey!" "Somebody's comin'." "Let's get out!" "Let's get out of here." "Come on!" "Let's go." "Come on!" " Come on." "Get a move on." " Come on." "In here." " Out of the way!" " Let's move!" " Jesus!" " Let's move!" "Come on, open the fuckin' door." "Let's go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "I begged you not to go." "You've got to do something." "There are things from outer space next door." "You gents keep suckin' on that oxygen." "They'll probably go back to their own planet." " Get the police, you idiots." " Hey, look." "I'm not callin' no cops because a couple of geezers saw some people from outer space." "If my husband said he saw people from outer space, they were from outer space!" " Get the goddamn police!" " OK." "Call the police." "Whoo!" "They must have concocted this crazy story to cover themselves." "Spacemen, you say?" "That's wonderful!" "Well, we'll all be that old someday." "If we're lucky." "Yeah." "Well, we're gonna shoot on over to the home and straighten this whole thing out." "I wouldn't be too hard on 'em." "Just tell 'em, as long as they're willing to respect our privacy in future, we won't press charges." " We'll keep 'em on their side of the fence." " Thank you." "My pleasure." "Bye-bye." "Well, I guess we shouldn't be greedy about it." "We're better off than before we found it." "Bess said we should take it to The NationalEnquirer." "They pay money for this kind of story." "I wish I had the guts to go in." "Yeah." "Boy, I wish I never even knew about this place." "Oh." "What time is it?" "Just after four." "I'm gonna go talk to him." "Goddamn, it's ridiculous." "Hey, Walter." "Well, I'm not surprised you're here." "There's something in that pool a friend of ours just has to have." "Matter offact, there's a few of us could use a little of it." "We don't care who you are, where you've been, what you're doin', what you're up to." "Sure need that pool." "Look, Ben, I know you're just trying to help your people." "Well, I'm trying to help mine." "No, see, my friend Joe Finley, he's got cancer." "I'm trying to save his life." "I'm trying to save 20 lives." "And I'm running out of time." "No son of a bitch has to know we're in that pool." "We'll just be a few old farts paddlin' around in that pool." "Who's gonna know?" "Every ten or eleven thousand years or so, I make a terrible mistake." "The last one was when I picked what you call Atlantis as our base here on Earth." "Everyone else said use the North Pole." "I said "No, too cold."" "Sinking never occurred to me." "You're gonna let us use the pool, aren't you?" "You won't touch those cocoons?" "No." "No, I swear." "Use the pool." "Thank you." "Thank you!" " I, for one, don't believe this alien crap at all." " You don't believe your husband?" " No." " I believe Joe." "I believe him and I'm scared." " I don't believe it and I'm still scared." " I guess I'm just less gullible." "Mary, you have your nerve!" "I have more horse sense than you ever had." "Ladies, ladies." "Let's just go and see for ourselves." "Come on." "All right." "Let's meet the aliens!" "I hate to go visiting without a plate of cookies or a box of candy." " We're going home." " Will you cut it out, Bernie?" " We have permission, don't we?" " Those people aren't people." " I'm not gonna have anything to do with 'em." " Oh, pipe down." "You're playin' with fire over there." "I'm a citizen." "I believe in this country." "I'm thinkin' of blowing' a whistle on the whole deal." "Come on, Rose." " Stop right there." " Oh, what." "What?" " Stop thinkin' about yourself." "This is for Joe." " Joe?" "Is Joe above the law?" "Are any of us?" " In 1948, Dutch Schultz walked into my store." " Bernie." "Bernie, shut up!" " Let me tell you about what Dutch said." " Bernie." "Bernie!" "If you don't wanna do this for Rose, ifyou don't wanna do it for yourself, that's fine." " But ifyou screw it up for us..." " Don't threaten me, Joe." "Bernie, please." "Let her come with us." "Just this once." "No, no." "Never." "Rose and I will never set foot over there again." "Nature dealt us a hand of cards." "We play them." "Now, at the end of the game, suddenly you're lookin' to reshuffle the deck?" "Huh?" "Oh, come on, Rose." "Come on, let's go." "Anybody have second thoughts?" " Not me." " I'm a citizen too." "I was in the navy." "I don't see anything wrong with it." "Then you drive." "I got no licence." "# How wouldyou like to spend the weekendin Havana?"

" Alma, you're overreacting." " I knew." "I always knew." "I just pretended to be stupid, and I guess I really was." "But you're the stupid one." " Things have been so good between us." " Nothing's changed..." "Go home, Joe." "Don't make yourself look any more ridiculous than you already are." "I'm happy you're going to live, Joe." "But I've got to live too." "Joe." "Joe, try to relax." "Hey, are you up for a swim, maybe?" "Well, sure." "Pool!" "Pool!" "Can't you think about anything else?" " If you and Rose came, you'd feel differently." " We don't want to." "We like the way we feel." "She needs it, Bernie." " We should discuss this later." " There is nothing to discuss!" "You're a hard-head." "You're the most frightened man I ever knew." " Christ, I don't have to listen to you." " If you sit at this table you damn well do!" "You think you're in such great shape, Finley." "Your marriage is what's terminally ill now." " You really are an old bastard." " Old is right." "I don't wanna be young again." "You're a mess because of the fountain of youth, however healthy you think you are!" " Sit down, stupid." " We don't want any part of that pool!" "You can keep the goddamn fountain ofyouth!" "No wonder your wife has no use for you." " I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch." " Joe!" "Joe!" "Joe!" "Joe, Joe, Joe!" "Joe!" "It's next door, isn't it?" "It's in that pool over there, right?" " Get that pool!" " Get out of the way!" "What is..." "Oh, my God!" "What do we do?" "Ben..." " Please, get out of the pool." " Come on." "Everybody out!" "Come on." "Get out of there." "Come on, out of the water!" "Get out!" "You're trespassing!" "Stop!" "Everybody out!" "You have no right to be here." "You are trespassing here." "Put down the cocoon." "I said, put down the cocoon!" "Put it down." "Put it down." "I'm calling the police." "Get out, all ofyou." "Get out!" "All this time to energise the pool, and now the life force is completely drained from the water." "I'm not gonna be able to bring them back." "When Max saw me in that sweater with the mouton collar and the ivory buttons, he said "Rose, where the hell did you get that sweater?"" "I stayed mum." "Because I knew you stole it." "But you stole it for me." "Max never stole anything for me." "And he never made anything as beautiful as that mouton collar." "Max couldn't do anything with his hands." "Except when they were all over me." "But you wouldn't even kiss my cheek without asking." "Dumping Max was the smartest move I ever made." "Oh, Bernie..." "Time for your medicine." "I'll get it." "Here you are." "Rose." "Rose?" "Are you asleep?" "Rose?" "Rose?" "Rose!" "Rose..." "Rose." "I'm so sorry." "Can you help me?" "I have to do something for her." "She... she..." "The pool doesn't work any more." "It's too late." "I'll give you everything I've got." "I'm sorry, Bernie." "I wish I could help you." "It's just too late." "Rosie?" "Oh, Rosie..." " Hello, Ben." " Walter." "I thought maybe you guys had got out of here already, after what happened today." "I came by to tell you I'm sorry, Walter." "I..." "I know we let you down and I'm really sorry." "I had never experienced the pain and... the grief associated with death before." "I... never had anyone close to me who died." "Walter, these things out here." "Can you take them back with you on that spaceship?" "No." "They would never survive the flight." "Well, can you put 'em back in the ocean?" "Two are gone now." "Two of my friends are gone." "We don't have time to get them all back in the ocean." "We must leave this place tomorrow." "What ifwe do it tonight?" "We'll help you." " Bring that one around here, OK?" " Let me give you a hand with that." "There are a lot more." "Take this one outside and come back." " OK." "Got it?" " I can't do this alone." " Hey, could somebody give me a hand?" " Set it over there." " OK?" " Come on, let's go." "Let's get a hold of it." "Our base was sinking." "The time to prepare a passage forall ofus was gone." "These 20 chose to staybehind so the rest ofus couldleave safely." "Theysurvivedhere in the ocean for 10,000 years." "They can survive again." " OK?" " Yes." " How you guys doin'?" " OK." " You OK?" " I'm fine." "I've been diving before." "Oh, yeah?" "I want you all to consider very carefully what I'm about to suggest to you." "You and your friends seem to want what we've got." "Well, we have room for you." "We have room for you and about 30 more ofyour friends." "You would be students, of course, but..." "But you'd also be teachers." "And the new civilisations that we'll be travelling to will be unlike anything you've ever known." "But I promise you, you will all lead productive lives." " For ever?" " We don't know what "for ever" means." "I got a couple of things I..." " Not a good cast." "...I need to talk about with you." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "I guess me and your grandma are goin' away, David." " Where to?" " Well, that's not important." "What's important is that... when we get where we're goin'... we'll never be sick, we won't get any older and we won't ever die." " You're joking me, right?" " No." "No." "Would I be able to visit you and Grandma?" "No." "And we wouldn't be able to visit you either, and that kinda bothers me." "I'd never see you again?" "No." "When would you go, ifyou did?" "Soon, my boy." "Soon." " And do you know where?" " Where?" "Look up." "Outer space, my lad." "Outer space." "Who's gonna take you to outer space?" "It don't matter." "You wouldn't believe me if I told you." "And I can't tell your mother, because she'd then know her old man had snapped his cap." "I wonder if they'll have fishing' holes there?" "There's some things they won't have." "They won't have grandsons and they won't have... baseball games, and they won't have hot dogs, and they won't have that kind of stuff." "I'm gonna miss 'em." "All right, cast it out there." "I wish we'd get a bite." "I'd like to catch one more great big fish." "You know how much we love you, don't you?" "Of course I do." "I just don't want you to forget how much we care, no matter what we say or do." "Of course." " Bye, Grandpa." " Goodbye, little man." "Smile." "Bye, Dad." "Bye, Mom." "Stop by next week sometime, OK?" "Be a good boy." "Mind your mom." "You havin' second thoughts?" "Yes." " So you think we're cheatin' nature?" " Yes." "Well, I'll tell you something." "The way nature's been treatin' us, I don't mind cheating' her a little." " You'll be closing your account, Mr Selwyn?" " Yes, I will." " All in $100 bills?" " Mm-hm." "Here you go." "This is for you." "Sir!" "Here." "Have fun!" "Have fun, my friends, have fun!" "Here, divide it up, girls!" "Divide it up!" "There you are, there you are!" "# Racing with the moon!" "Hey, enjoy, enjoy!" "# Sailing to the midnight sun..." "He can come in for a minute." "Hi." "They say ifwe go with them, we'll live for ever." "Well, that's good." "It's probably going to take you an eternity to forgive me." "I'm sorry, Alma." "I guess I've been ridiculous." "I am sorry." "I love you." "You're my whole life." "I want to go." "But if it's a choice of only six more months here with you, or living for ever all by myself, well, I'll take the six more months here with you." "I don't wanna live for ever ifyou're not gonna be with me." " So you definitely trust them?" " We trust 'em." "Men should be explorers, no matter how old they are." "I don't know about anybody else, but I'm going." "Why the hell not?" "We're in." "Are you nervous?" "Me?" "No." "You're sure you want to do this?" "Once I make a decision, Arthur, I never turn back." "This is a big one." "I know." "Yeah, it's gonna be 72 and clear tonight." "A greatnight to see that totallunar eclipse." "Check it out." "But don'tget weird on me, people." "Let's go." "Let's go." "Quick." "Getme a glass ofwater." "Look out." " Don't do that!" " Whatis the meaning of this?" "David?" "You staying up for the eclipse?" "You don't seem too enthusiastic." "Did you and Grandpa have a fight today?" "No." "What did he say to you?" "David, I'm very worried about Grandpa and Grandma." "What did he say to you?" "I can't tell you." "They're my parents, David." "You've got to tell me what he said to you." "He made me promise." "Mom?" "Dad?" "Mom?" "Dad?" "Hey, Bernie!" "Come on!" "You're coming with us, Bernie!" "No." "I came to say goodbye." "I just wanted to tell you, I hope you find what you're looking for." "Rose is gone, Bernie." "Why stay?" "This is my home." "This is where I belong." "Come on, go with us." "Goodbye, Bernie." " Goodbye, Bernie." " Bye." "We'll miss you." "Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on." "Go." "Only when I need it, right?" "Only when I need it." "Jesus..." " I know something is wrong." " They're probably out dancin'." "Those folks love to dance." "Could we talk to one of their friends?" "We'll go see Pops." "Will that satisfy ya?" "Pops." "Pops?" "Got a little game of 20 questions for ya." "Pops!" "Oh, shit!" "Hello?" "I don't know what's goin' on here." " We'd better take a look down below." " What?" " We'd better take a look down below." " Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah." "Make sure you get the feed line, cos it's gotta be..." "You got it." "Good." "The injector." "Yeah, we gotta make the injector..." "You got that, too?" "Good." "Um..." "Go house to house." "Check the bus stations and the airports." "This is a serious situation." "The owner of the facility is on his way." "He's not happy at all." "Why don't we start by taking a good look around the grounds first?" " OK, gentlemen?" " OK." "Right this way." "Better advise your commander." "Don't worry, miss." "We'll help you find your father and mother." " It's right over here." " We're in deep shit, you know that?" "David!" "David!" "Back this way!" "Hey, hey." "Whoa!" "In case you're wondering, Silly Putty." "Cast off those lines." "Grandpa!" "Wait for me!" "I want to go too!" " Grandpa!" " What are you doing here?" "Are you all right?" " Yeah." " My gosh." " David!" "David!" " A boatjust left from the dock next door." " Old people." "A kid." "Some in wheelchairs." " Mom!" "Dad!" " David!" " We'd better move." "I don't like the looks of it." "You can't go." "Only your grandmother and me from this outfit." "Captain, this is Air21." "I thinklgot 'em belowme." " Want me to swoop 'em?" "Over." " Roger, Air21." "You are cleared." "This is the Coast Guardhelicopter." "Heave to." "Prepare to be boarded." "Manta Ill, be prepared for Coast Guardboats to come alongside and boardyour vessel." "Manta Ill, this is nota request, this is an order." "You are endangering the lives ofyourpassengers." "Cutyour engines." "We are coming alongside to boardyour vessel." "Jack." "Don't let them board us." "Nobody's gonna board this boat." "You just get your friends here." "Engines!" "Cutyour engines!" "Captain, this is Lieutenant Spark of the St Petersburg Police."

"Now, you drive careful, Walter." "See you, Walter." "Well, I guess your ride's here, huh?" "Look, Kitty, next time you're in town, I want you to look me up, OK?" "Don't worry, Jack."
