"PLANET OF THE SHARKS" "Binoculars." "Binoculars." "Go down." "Go down now." "Go now." "Get to shelter." "Get to the boat, get to the boat!" "Salvation, come in." "I'm seeing a flare from Junk City." "Sending up flares." "Flares?" "How many?" "Just one." "Okay, thank you." "This is Salvation to Junk City." "Come in." "Salvation to Junk City." "Do you read?" "It's gone." "I don't see Junk City at all." "Wait, wait, wait, wait." "Say again." "What you see?" "Nothing." "Nothing?" "What you mean, you see nothing?" "I can't see the city." "Wait." "You can't see the city?" "I can't see it." "Well, where are you looking?" "East." "Look west." "I looked West there's nothing there." "Well, if you don't see anythi..." "Do you see part of the city or all of the city?" "I can't see any of the city." "He's drunk." "Could somebody please get up there?" "He's had too much of the home brew." "This is the Osprey." "I am heading for Junk City." "This is Salvation." "Salvation to Barrick." "Come in." "Yeah, go for Barrick." "We need some eyes on Junk City." "I can do that." "I am heading right by there." "Let me know what you see." "All right." "Here I come." "Vestron Research Station calling for the Osprey." "Yeah." "Go for Barrick." "Barrick, what's your 20?" "I'm about 20 nautical miles out." "I've got your rebar, and I got some mint copper for you." "Outstanding." "What's your E.T.A.?" "The boys are itching to hitch that scrubber to the rocket." "Yeah, I'll get there when I can." "We'll have some home brew waiting for you when you get here." "Did you make it?" "Not this time." "In that case, I will take some." "Over and out." "Nichols?" "You want the good or the bad?" "Surprise me." "Okay." "The rocket's nearly ready." "Atmospheric conditions are lining up quite nicely for launch." "Starting this week, optimal conditions for the CO2 scrubbers will dominate this region for a 62-hour window." "And the bad news?" "Even if the parts Barrick bring work, we still need more chassis components to weld the scrubber unit to the craft properly." "We can get those from Salvation." "Even so, we won't be able to test the scrubbers before launch." "You mean a dry run?" "Exactly." "The scrubbers rocked the simulations." "We were able to get CO2 levels down to pre-flood levels and then some, but as you know, there's no substitute for actual testing." "Why can't we test it?" "We only have enough materials to run the scrubbers once." "I thought we were making two sets of scrubbers." "Once we got into it, we realized we only had enough material to make one." "Okay, so we've only got one shot at this." "Better make it perfect." "And we'll do our best to make that happen, but that takes time, and I'm afraid if we wait too long, we lose our launch window." "Temperatures are increasing." "We're getting close to the point where the device may not have an impact, no matter how powerful it is." "The sooner that we can get the scrubbers into the atmosphere, the better chance we have of reversing the warming trend." "We didn't come this far to fail, Dr. Nichols." "I understand that, but we have to consider the possibility of error caused by working too quickly." "My team is worn out." "You push them too much, and an error could be catastrophic." "What do you need?" "I'd ask for a miracle, but I will settle for more time for Munro and Ishi to check and double-check the launch parameters." "You've got 48 hours." "Thank you." "Micro-light's juiced up." "I can be there in 20." "Can you transmit video back from that range?" "No." "I clock out at a mile." "I've gotta get the video booster from Vestron." "Okay, then you radio back when you got a visual then, yeah?" "Yeah." "Got it." "Okay." "Salvation to Junk City." "Salvation to Junk City!" "Come in!" "We can put extra men on the wall, but I need to know what we're dealing with." "Well, Nathan's on it." "We should know something within the hour." "Good." "Yields from the greenhouse are low." "It's been too hot, and it's gonna keep getting hotter." "The solar stills ain't making enough fresh water to keep us on survival rations." "My guys on edge, from the linesmen all the way down to the fish crew." "Everyone's itching for a fight." "Report to me when you got news from Junk City?" "I find out they wasted a flare," "I'll personally go down there..." "I don't think they would do that." "I really don't..." "On another note, I got another request from Oceanic, yeah." "They want more bits for their rocket." "Can we spare 'em?" "Yeah." "Then let's see what they're willing to barter." "We got a survivor, rainwater docks." "Copy that." "I am on it." "Get in the boat!" "Hold on to something!" "Come on!" "Come on." "Come on." "Come on." "Barrick, Barrick, you need to get the hell out of there." "Come on." "What the hell was that?" "I don't know." "Never seen anything like it." "You okay?" "Come on." "Okay, Barrick." "You're in the clear." "I'm gonna go to Salvation and tell them what happened." "Yeah, I'll do the same when I get to Vestron." "Okay." "Radio me if you need anything." "Yeah, copy that." "You do the same." "Over." "Are you thirsty?" "It's rainwater from the monsoon 18 clicks away from here." "Try it." "Try it." "All right, easy, easy, easy, easy, easy." "Hey, come have a look over here." "I want to show you something." "Come here." "Come over here." "It's okay." "That's where we're going, right?" "Focus on where we're going." "Look at me." "Okay?" "Man, there were thousands." "Now we've all seen superpods of dolphins." "This was like that, except they were sharks, a magnitude larger than anything I've ever seen." "And in the middle, there was one." "Man, it was massive." "You're asking me to believe in something we ain't never seen in our years on the ocean?" "Well, the ocean is adapting." "Okay, okay, but isn't it more realistic to say that the sharks were attracted to the destruction of the city, rather than being the cause of it?" "Now, we've seen disasters before where they've shown up, like capsizing at Sharna, right?" "Man, you want to know what happened, you gotta speak to Barrick." "He pulled a survivor." "Come on, kid." "No." "Do you know what this place is, kid?" "It's Vestron Station." "This is where they survived the great flood." "It's the safest place in the entire world." "They got rockets here." "Right, Doc?" "Rockets?" "We do, actually." "Just one." "It won't help." "What?" "Rockets won't stop them when they come." "When who comes?" "Sharks." "Listen..." "Bea." "Bea." "Hi." "I'm Dr. Nichols." "If you don't want to get off this boat, you don't have to." "You can stay right here." "No." "What do you mean she can stay here?" "No, she can't stay here." "It's all the same." "As soon as you unload your cargo, you're taking her to Salvation." "I got another run to do." "You do, and it's to Salvation." "We're all going there." "Last I checked, you're on a contract with Oceanic." "We give you fuel and supplies for your services." "Yeah, but it's limited to deep-sea recovery and salvage." "Well, it would be a salvage of sorts." "Salvation has agreed to supply us with some iridium casings for our electrical contacts, so I need to check the stability of the iridium." "So we all gotta go?" "Yes." "We need to powwow with D'Amato." "They want to talk to you and your passenger." "So whatever new trouble this is, we need to sort it out quickly." "We're running out of time for the launch." "Hi." "I'm Dr. Shaw." "Bea." "Nice to meet you, Bea." "I want to show you something." "Can you come here?" "Come on." "See that rocket right there?" "We're going to attach a device to that rocket called the CO2 scrubber." "CO2 is what caused the poles to melt and the entire planet to be covered with water." "So our team, which is headed up by Dr. Nichols, has created this device." "They're going to put this device on the rocket and fire it up high into the atmosphere, hoping with the right conditions that this will actually reverse the effect." "Do you know what means?" "No more water?" "Yeah." "Dry land." "Sounds crazy, doesn't it?" "Very." "I know, but we have some of the best minds on the planet working on it." "So we need everybody's help, including yours." "Will you help us?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Now, if we could just get this thing unloaded, we could leave." "Barrick, this should help you grow some." "What's that for?" "It's for radio tagging the sharks." "You want to tag sharks, do it on your own time." "I don't know what your problem is with me, but I suggest you deep-six it." "I don't have a problem with you, Doc." "I think you have a..." "A great personality." "But after what I saw at Junk City," "I see a shark, I'm out of there." "So what's your take on this?" "When the poles melted, we saw the fish population explode." "More nutrients in the water meant more fish, and it grew exponentially." "But what we're seeing now is a population collapse due to the excessive temperatures." "Now, plankton are the base of the food chain." "The smaller fish eat the plankton, which in turn feed the larger fish and all the way on up to the top with sharks." "But now with the excessive heat, the ocean is too warm for the plankton to survive." "This in turn causes the fish population to crash on down the line, and what you're left with is a bunch of top predators with nothing to eat underwater." "So what do they do?" "They look for food on top of the water, and that's us." "The ocean is dying, and it's gonna try to take us with it." "I saved some images on the sonar from Junk City." "Come and have a look." "Are you seeing what I'm seeing?" "A bunch of different shark species schooled together?" "I've never seen that before." "Yeah." "What's that huge thing in the middle?" "That's the mother of all sharks." "How many people are living at Salvation?" "Over 400." "That's a big meal." "That's exactly the kind of thing that's gonna draw them here." "They've got shark nets around this place." "If it's sharks, my guys can handle that." "Bring it on." "We haul dozens of 'em out of the sea every day." "Where do you think we get the oil for our lamps?" "Yeah, but these sharks... these sharks are not normal sharks." "I find it hard to believe an entire flotilla could be taken down by sharks." "You better believe it." "Okay." "Let's say I do." "What are our options?" "We got over 400 people here." "Can we take 'em to your station at Vestron?" "We're not set up for that." "Then why'd you come here?" "You want something from us, but you not willing to help?" "Look, we're a science station." "We're set up for 40 or 50 people max." "It would take weeks to upgrade." "Well, then I guess you people are gonna be working double-time." "We could take some people to the HAARP substation." "It's been mothballed for over a year." "How many people can you put over there?" "Maybe 200." "What about the rest?" "Look, I would vote for that, but, you know, as long as you didn't care about your machinery and all." "Hey, I know these folks." "They're gonna strip it down for usable parts." "Whose side you on?" "Everyone's." "I just take into account the nature of our rough-and-ready-type folks here, you know, myself included." "Look, we'll take people over there if we need to, but prepping the station takes time." "We need to do something now." "You have the shark nets." "I would suggest beefing them up." "Yeah, we don't have the nets." "What?" "We had to cannibalize them to build the expansion wing, okay?" "The kind of fishing we do round here, nets just get in the way." "So what defenses do you have?" "We do what we do best." "Moffat, relay it down the line." "Get every able-bodied man down here now." "Maybe we could just..." "Now!" "Will do." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "We got some sharks to kill." "Fishing is a full-contact sport around here." "With all due respect, D'Amato, do you really think this is the best idea?" "I don't tell you how to run your show." "Don't tell me how to run mine." "But if what they say is correct, then..." "I'm sorry." "Junk City was a collection of scavengers scraping a living off the surface." "Heavy wind could have just blown them over." "We, on the other hand, have been here from the start." "The sea took the land from us, and now we take what we want from the sea." "It's gonna take a whole lot more than a few sharks to take us out." "Yeah, I'm going back to the Osprey." "You're coming with me." "Nathan, we need some eyes in the sky." "I want to find out where those sharks are headed." "I can do that." "Okay." "Bahh!" "Hey-o!" "Hoo!" "Get ready!" "We done hit the jackpot!" "Come on!" "You come get it!" "Raah!" "Gaah!" "Come on!" "Gaah!" "Dr. Shaw!" "This ain't nothing but another day for my people!" "Get on outta here." "Go!" "Go back out!" "Stay here." "Hang on." "Wait for her." "Go." "Take her there." "Go." "Get her." "Let's go." "Come on!" "Hurry up!" "I'll get you!" "Hurry up!" "Here!" "Grab my hand!" "Hey!" "Get back!" "Get back!" "Up you get." "Come on." "Come on!" "You hand!" "That's my boat!" "Go this way!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Grab my hand!" "Keep this for me!" "Quickly!" "Go that way!" "Go!" "Hurry up." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Over here!" "Come!" "Come to mama!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Over here!" "Come to mama!" "Come on, you!" "Yeah." "Come on!" "Quickly!" "We gotta get off this thing!" "Hurry up!" "Go this way!" "Go!" "Go!" "Here!" "Here, here!" "You came here for this, right?" "For your project?" "Thanks." "We gotta get these people off the flotilla!" "Yeah, yeah." "Follow me!" "Go quickly!" "Hurry!" "Where's the..." "Where's the boat?" "!" "Come on!" "All right, go on!" "You gotta jump!" "No!" "No, no, no!" "Jump!" "Quickly, Jump!" "Come on!" "My God." "We don't have a chance." "Moffat, go!" "Come on!" "Barrick, get the girl!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "You can do it!" "Swim!" "Let's go." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on!" "Get her!" "Come up." "Moffat, listen to me." "Head for the ladder." "Okay, okay!" "I'll get you." "There!" "Barrick, get this." "I got it." "I got it." "Come on." "What the hell is that?" "Get in the boat!" "Get in the boat!" "Get in the boat!" "Wait!" "Is this as fast as you can go?" "Yeah." "Why don't I just get out and push, shall I?" "Hey, why don't you do it?" "Yeah, I just might!" "Nichols, did you see what those sharks did?" "I saw what it looked like." "I've seen it before, the smaller sharks defending the bigger one." "Sharks aren't altruistic." "The young cannibalize each other in the womb." "Something else is going on." "Go on." "Sharks have heightened senses." "2/3 of their brain are dedicated towards smell." "They can sense electromagnetic fields, and my guess is they're using the electromagnetic fields to communicate, and she's controlling them somehow." "So you're talking electrocommunication?" "Sharks are tuned to read bioelectrics." "It's not a huge leap to believe that if a shark can track its prey using the electromagnetic fields, it can also broadcast electromagnetic pulses to communicate." "They're built to receive these signals." "The same ampullae de Lorenzini they use to track their prey can be used to receive these signals via electrocommunication." "Maybe we can use that against them." "Hey, guys, we got bigger problems." "There are so many, hundreds of them following her." "She's controlling them." "Come on, girl." "This alpha female is controlling an army of sharks." "Doc, can you do me a favor?" "Go upstairs, and keep the boat straight, okay?" "What's the speed looking like?" "We got 15 knots!" "Hey, Doc, is it increasing?" "17 knots!" "That should do it." "You okay?" "Vestron Station, come in." "This is Shaw." "Osprey calling for Vestron." "Come in." "We read you." "So you think you can get the HAARP transmitter juiced up for one more run?" "Last time we ran that thing, it zapped the power grid to the entire station for two weeks." "We had to replace the transformers and rewire the entire station." "Are you sure we can take that kind of risk?" "That would set the whole program back." "I don't think we have a choice." "Take Project XIII off the grid." "Get your team over there." "I need that transmitter working." "I can't guarantee we can even get it running." "No one works over there anymore." "Nichols and you are better than anyone." "Nichols is here if you need input." "Get it online, and get back to me." "I'll give you the target." "So you do know of the collateral damage that may occur?" "Bouncing electromagnetic beams off the ionosphere, it could result in earthquakes, tsunamis, a whole wealth of natural disasters that we're not equipped with deal with." "Not to mention if anyone's in the path of the directed beam, could result in irreversible damage." "Thank you, Dr. Munro." "I'm well aware of the risks." "We will be clear of the target zone before I reactivate the beam." "Ishi, what's the status on the rocket?" "We are working to attach the scrubbers, but because of the conditions they would be subjected to in the upper atmospheres," "I'm suspending final attachment until you return with the iridium casings." "We need to create a harness that can withstand the heat." "Negative, Ishi." "Continue your work." "Without the addition of platinum iridium," "I cannot guarantee the structural integrity will be maintained until deployment." "It could rupture on launch." "Casings are on their way." "Continue your work." "We don't have much time." "Sir..." "Find a way to make it work." "Double-weld the seams, and heat-treat them." "The iridium can go on at a later stage." "We need to do this now." "We have no alternative." "This launch window may be our only chance to utilize the scrubber." "Dr. Munro, get that transmitter working." "Get back to me." "You heard her, then." "No time to waste." "Well, in theory, we should be able to create a device that mimics the effects of a capsizing boat and the hundreds of people in the water." "If we place the device in the right place, then the sharks will come." "Where are you thinking of dropping it?" "Dwilson Ridge." "Volcano?" "It's an underwater caldera." "There are a few smokers, but it's mainly dormant, so it's asleep, but not dead, so when it erupts, then several megatons of energy will be released." "What do you mean, "when it erupts"?" "We're going to use the HAARP transmitter." "Okay, so turn the beam to the right frequency, and it excites the magma." "Then the frequency of the focused beam forces the atoms into a plasma state, which then in turn causes a volcanic eruption." "English?" "Okay, do you remember Project Provenance?" "Yeah." "When we attempted to recreate land mass." "So it was our intent to reboot civilization on manmade islands." "The goal was to utilize cooled magma rock and turn it into inhabitable land formations." "So using the HAARP to trigger submarine volcanoes by zapping the upper atmosphere with focused electromagnetic radio waves." "I remember how that turned out." "We were in tsunami watch for a week." "So why do you think it'd be any different now?" "We're not trying to recreate a continent." "We just need to force an eruption, and that's what the HAARP transmitter does." "How do we know that the sharks will be over the volcano at that time?" "Leave it to me." "Barrick, you hearing this?" "No, no, no, no, no." "You're mad!" "No, there has to be another way." "I'm open to ideas." "Well, Barrick has weapons onboard." "We can make bang-sticks." "Well, okay, how about electroshock, okay?" "We stun the sharks with electricity, and then, bang!" "When they float to the surface, we take 'em out with the bang-sticks." "There are far too many sharks involved in the attacks." "We need to neutralize them all." "Okay, your device, we have to take it to the volcano and drop it off and then get out of there before it blows, right?" "Correct." "Yeah, well, I'm sorry to be the brains of the operation here, but this boat is slower than my metabolism." "How do..." "How do you suggest we do that?" "We don't have to." "Now, I got the signal booster from your people in Vestron, so you should have eyes all the way to the volcano." "Excellent." "There are two settings, one to initially attract the sharks and the other to draw them in." "This is your primary switch." "Hit this when you've made contact with the school." "When you're in position, trigger it here." "Drop it, and get out of there." "This will send out a transmitter that will descend to the volcano." "Once it's been deployed and you're clear," "I'll send word to Vestron." "They'll fire the HAARP transmitter." "Got it?" "Got it." "Good luck." "All right." "Hey, stay safe, Nate!" "You, too, man." "Nathan, when you make contact with the sharks, turn on the first setting of the device." "This should draw them in." "I got a visual on the school." "I'm going in a little closer." "They're heading southeast." "You need to get them to head northwest." "I'm going in." "No." "The device is still transmitting." "We can be there in 10 minutes." "Yeah, well, what do we do?" "We could go get it, but if we deploy it at Dwilson Ridge, then the blast radius will be over three miles." "Even if we get out of there in time, the resulting wave will overwhelm us." "Well, this is great!" "This is fantastic!" "Sharks, volcano, wave!" "I got two sips left!" "There's another way." "Go ahead, Doc." "You pilot the boat back." "I'll drop off the device." "She tops out at 30 knots, speed fast enough to get you away from the blast zone." "I'll go." "No." "It's not open for discussion." "No, it isn't." "This is your boat." "You're the best person to pilot it, not me." "I appreciate the vote of confidence, but there's a lot of people relying on you." "You know how to fly this thing?" "I spent two months surveying the western hemisphere for atolls." "Yes, I know how to fly this thing." "Okay, Nichols is right." "We need you here, Barrick." "Last time I checked, I was still the captain of this boat." "I'll be fine." "All right." "Doc, I traded a lot of personal things for this board." "I want it back." "Or what?" "Or you owe me a new rig." "Deal." "Listen, we'll meet you in the safe zone, but if something doesn't feel right, just abort, okay?" "There is a transmitter on the device, but we will not have two-way communication, so I'll leave it up to your discretion." "She's found the school, and she's drawing them in." "Copy." "Here we go." "This could work." "Vestron Station, come in." "This is Shaw." "We read you." "I need an update on the HAARP." "What's your status?" "We were over at the facility." "Some of the controls seem to have been stripped to use on the rocket." "We're going to have to jumpstart this thing manually." "I got Nichols out there risking it all to draw themo ca" "Get it going." "I don't care what it takes." "Thanks." "We should continue our work on the rocket." "That is our priority." "This HAARP device is a waste of time." "I've known Shaw a long time." "Doesn't help anyone to second-guess her." "This is a mistake." "If we don't stop the sharks, it won't matter if the rocket works." "There won't be any of us left." "Here." "Thanks." "Hey, hey." "Hey." "They're taking the bait!" "Booyah!" "Sorry." "She's wired in." "Let's see if this baby still has some life in her." "Come on, baby." "Okay." "Hello, Unix!" "You want to talk to me like that?" "What do you think?" "This is some old-school programming." "But all the contacts are still good." "Can you get the HAARP online?" "Yes." "She's cranky, but a firm hand'll do the trick." "This is Vestron calling for Osprey." "Come in." "This is Shaw." "Go ahead." "The HAARP's online, but Ishi tells me we only got one run at this." "Okay, excellent." "Let me know when it's ready." "Stand by for my command to fire the transmitter." "Sir, I want to voice my reservation on firing this thing." "Duly noted, but we don't have a choice." "Do what you can to minimize adverse effect at the station." "I want all hands on this." "Yes, sir." "Nichols is nearing her drop zone." "The HAARP must be ready when the device is in place." "I got you, sir." "It will be ready." "We're leaving?" "We have to trigger this thing remotely." "Didn't Shaw say to sever all connection between the HAARP and Vestron control?" "How will we set it off without a direct link?" "If we set it up while we're still connected, Vestron could be..." "I know!" "We have to get everyone on severing all connections through the main facility and the HAARP transmitter, but we leave one line tethered for control." "When we set it off, we disconnect." "We shouldn't have any blowback." "Are you sure of that?" "No one's used this thing in years." "There's no telling what would happen when we set it off." "The magnitude of power emitted from this thing could have very real collateral damage to anyone nearby." "Remote trigger is the only way to do this." "She's planted the device." "We need to give her three minutes to get away from the blast radius." "Is that enough time?" "Yes." "The process isn't instantaneous." "Once we've triggered the HAARP, we bounce a beam of energy at the volcano." "It takes a variable amount of time for the volcano to erupt." "She's going to be safe, right?" "There's always a margin for error, but just get us there." "She'll be there." "Vestron Station, this is Shaw on the Osprey." "This is Caroline at Vestron." "Go ahead." "The device has been deployed and is in position." "Are you ready to trigger the HAARP?" "All systems go on your command." "Has Vestron been separated from the HAARP facility?" "Is everything with the rocket shielded?" "Not exactly." "We're running a line in for ignition to trigger the HAARP." "I told you to isolate that facility." "I know, and I was the first one to agree with that plan, but after inspecting the HAARP transmitter, it's too risky to have someone over there setting it off." "It has to be done this way." "Copy that." "I'll leave it to you." "She's cleared the safe zone, so..." "Okay." "She's cleared the zone." "On my mark." "Yes, sir." "We are ready to proceed." "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5," "4, 3, 2, 1." "Fire!" "Yeah!" "Do we disconnect?" "Negative." "I have to steer the beam once it reaches the ionosphere." "Atmospheric conditions influences the path." "We need to do this now!" "Not yet." "I can't guarantee it will hit its target." "We can't stay connected much longer." "We'll lose everything!" "I need one minute to focus the beam." "We don't have one more minute!" "We're losing it!" "Come on, baby!" "Ishi, we can't remain connected any longer!" "On target now!" "Beam is on target!" "Disconnect!" "Yeah!" "Hey, hey!" "My gosh, look at that!" "Unreal." "Yahoo!" "Hey!" "Look at that!" "Hoo!" "Yeah!" "Hey, Shaw!" "Barrick, come and have a look!" "Get in." "Quickly." "Quickly." "Hey, Barrick, where you going?" "Barr..." "Wait, wait, wait!" "You're not heading towards that, are you?" "We don't bow to the wave, she'll capsize us." "Well, then, let's just bow to the flipping wave and then bugger off back that way, shall we?" "Just hold on to something." "Barrick!" "Don't look, sweetheart." "Come on, girl." "You can do it." "Come on." "Come on." "Christ." "Sit down." "You sit down!" "Sit down!" "I'll sit down." "Caroline?" "Caroline?" "Caroline, can you hear me?" "How'd we do?" "When the HAARP went off, it sent an E.M.P. pulse sideways and upwards." "Power's out." "Systems are down." "We didn't disconnect in time." "No, we did... but I don't think it mattered." "The brunt of it hit right here where we are at." "How's the rocket?" "Structurally, sound." "If we can get the iridium cases from the Osprey, we're good to launch." "However... without power, we're dead in the water." "What about wave kinetic energy harvesters or solar cells?" "Well, mechanically, they are sound, but the batteries used for storing the energy is fried." "So we have no way of storing the energy we harvest?" "What about direct power from the harvesters?" "The current generator is too weak." "So what you're saying is that we can generate energy, but we have no way of storing it?" "Yes, that's correct." "What about our target?" "Have you heard anything from Osprey?" "Not yet." "We're working on backup communications as we speak." "Good." "We need to get Shaw on the horn." "Vestron Station's not responding." "What does that mean?" "Probably that they took an E.M.P. hit." "What about Dr. Nichols?" "We're gonna have to ride the wave out." "We'll fetch her after." "Tell me you've ridden waves out like this before." "Not like this." "Definitely not like this." "We need more power!" "Go and check the fuel lines." "You night have to pump it manually." "No, I'll go." "You need Shaw here." "I'll go." "Got some problem with your throttle." "Boost it manually!" "Come on." "Better get secured." "Okay." "Yes!" "Put your arm through." "Okay." "Just..." "Get this round." "Get this round." "Get this round." "Get this round." "Get this round." "Get this round." "Okay." "That's it." "That..." "Okay." "Shaw, I need more power!" "It's maxed out!" "There we go." "There we go." "There we go." "Come on." "Yeah!" "Come on, girl." "Come on!" "Yeah!" "Yes!" "Yes!" "Good job, girl." " I've spotted her!" " She's in the water!" "Back of the boat!" "Yeah." "What are you doing?" "I'm going to tag that shark!" "Come on." "Get in." "Get in." "Get in." "Hold on to something." "Come on, baby." "Come on, baby." "Come on." "I think this should work." "No need." "But we didn't touch the iridium." "Thanks." "We'll get these into the final welds on the scrubbers A.S.A.P." "What's the status of the rocket?" "This is the last component we were waiting for." "But we have a bigger issue." "I noticed." "Power." "May take two to three days to get electrical up and running." "We can't wait that long." "We'll lose our window to launch." "We know, but it's worse than that." "Go on." "The destruction caused by the E.M.P. surge did more than just damage our electrical." "It fused the motors that run the pumps that keep Vestron above water." "Vestron is sinking." "What about the rocket?" "I advise dismantling and transport essential components out with your vessel." "How heavy is that thing?" "My boat can only carry so much." "Vestron is sinking." "Without the pumps, this place will be underwater within 48 hours." "Then we need to launch the rocket before then." "Sir, I don't think you understand." "We don't know at what point this platform becomes unstable." "You'll risk losing our rocket, everything we have been working for." "This could work." "We only need to find enough power for ignition." "After that, the rocket will power itself." "Doc, my boat's got power." "It's not enough." "Sir, I know you've put a lot into this." "We all have." "But to risk it all on one final shot is not some..." "Listen, Dr. Nichols says that this is the launch window." "We can't wait." "This planet can't wait." "It gets hotter every day, and the hotter it gets, the less chance we have of success." "We're at tipping point." "We've got one chance, and it's now." "So what's your plan to power the rocket to ignition?" "Well, the shark has displayed some powerful bioelectric characteristics." "In our last encounter," "I actually managed to radio tag the shark, which not only monitors the temperature, but also fluctuations in the electric field." "Okay, we all know what an electric eel is, yeah?" "They use electrical pulses to stun their prey." "Right." "Okay, well, this shark doesn't have that particular capability, but it does have other capabilities." "We believe that it's communicating with its surrounding sharks by completely overwhelming the circuits of the ampullae de Lorenzini." "Thing is, is that sharks don't normally use their electro-sensing organs until the moment before they bite their prey, and they need to be in close proximity for it to be able to work." "It's not like their sense of smell." "Their ampullae is actually quite weak, so the fact that our shark is broadcasting electromagnetic signals to a shark that can detect it from distances," "I mean, it must have a very powerful electro-transmitting organ." "Now this is what my sensor picked up." "A series of pulses that completely overwhelm our sensors." "I mean, we're talking about kilojoules of energy here." "You want to jumpstart the rocket by using the power from a shark?" "Come on!" "Look at the readouts." "Can you correlate the pulses to the behavior?" "What's this peak right here?" "When I fired at the alpha shark, the smaller ones started defending him." "That's the peak." "If we record enough of these signals, we may be able to decipher the code that the alpha shark is using to control the other sharks." "Yep." "Ishiro, get that rocket ready to launch!" "Munro, follow me!" "Go to the boat." "Sir, with your permission, I'd like to say behind and monitor the shark's bioelectrics." "I think we could use it against him." "You get that shark to follow me." "I don't care what it takes." "How exactly are you gonna control the shark?" "We don't need to control it." "We just need to mimic it." "If we figure out the signal it uses to send a command to attack, we become the alpha shark." "If we can." "She's welded in." "Come on." "Let's get this on the rocket." "This way?" "Yeah." "You got this?" "Munro." "I'm sorry I never did this sooner." "Wait." "Okay, go." "Come on." "Gotta go, go, go." "My God." "Yeah, yeah." "In here." "In here." "Get in here." "Now stay down." "Okay, stay down, okay?" "You stay here till I come and get you, all right?" "Come on, mate!" "Come on." "Stop!" "Moffat!" "Quiet!" "Quiet!" "Help me." "Help me." "Beatrice..." "Moffat!" "She's close." "Lots of fast bursts." "I got it!" "Micropulses." "Directional micropulses." "That's how she's doing it." "I got it!" "I got the code!" "Come over here!" "Come on!" "What's she doing?" "Come on!" "Shaw!" "Get out of there!" "Come on." "Shaw!" "Yes, yes, yes." "Yes." "Initiating coundown." "15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1." "15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1." "Come on." "Come on!" "I've recorded the signals." "I've reconfigured the hydrophone to transmit." "We should be able to send the signal like this." "If it works, the school will attack the alpha." "It's working." "It's working." "It's not working." "Something's wrong." "Doc, we gotta go." "She's coming for us." "She's targeting us!" "We gotta go, get out of here!" "It's gonna be okay." "Come on." "We've still got a few escape boats left." "We can get away before it goes down." "Let's get out of here."
