Just a quick stop, then we hit the road, promise.
Saturday, Uncle Robin and his minion offspring
will beat us there and
we'll get the worst camping spot again.
There are no worst spots.
There's just slightly less desirable ones.
There are bad, terrible spots, and we always get them
because we keep making these quick stops.
Honey, new observatory, new boss, new responsibilities.
Could have turned the job down.
Oh, yeah.
Hey, how is that new and very expensive phone
working out for you? Huh, kiddo?
Point taken.
I liked it better when you worked at George Washington U.
My in there was pretty much guaranteed.
Still is, champ. I left on good terms.
I thought you hated the people there.
No, no, I hate the politics, not the people.
I liked being a professor at the Space Policy Institute.
I didn't care for their politics around their policies.
I prefer to get science done efficiently.
How does that help me?
I'm still friends with all the smart people.
That combined with your straight As should do the rest.
Besides, now we got way more time for camping.
Do we?
Because we're not getting to that campsite for at least
another three hours.
And you still have to go in and grab those papers.
And I'll be really quick.
Hey, pinky swear.
Wait, I'm going to go with you.
What? I have to pee.
Ugh.
Hey. Let's wait in the car, okay?
-You remember the code, right? -Of course I do.
I'm just making sure.
It's got to be here.
Ah... Woo!
I feel much better.
I just need two files, then we're gone.
I can keep myself occupied.
Found them.
Could have waited until Tuesday.
No one else is working until then.
No way. You're going to be doing nothing but staring
at wide open night skies.
What better time to corroborate our new findings?
Dad, look at this.
Probably just something on the lens.
No, it's advancing with each image.
Come on here, take a look.
Slide over.
What is it?
I've never seen any space junk or spaceship like this,
at least that you've shown me before.
Do you think this has anything to do
with the fast burst anomaly signal
that you picked up last year?
I mean, it's coming from the same direction.
-The Rubicon signal? -Yeah.
I don't know what we're looking at,
but maybe I can figure out the trajectory.
Hey, it's probably just private sector, maybe even military.
You know, we're not always made privy to their builds,
especially the international ones.
We're usually made aware of a launch date.
Dr. Devlin, this is Dr. Morrow at the Maryland Observatory.
We have a UAP sighting, possibly military or maybe private,
but I'm not seeing anything on the schedule.
Yeah, sending images of coordinates now.
Adam, go wait outside.
But I want to listen.
Go. Change of plans. Go back to the farmhouse.
-I'll be out in a minute. -But I'm the one who found it.
Go. Now.
Yes, I'm still here.
Of course.
First sighting was at 0813.
Thank you, Dr. Morrow. We'll be in touch.
Get me on the phone with President McCoy
or SECDEF Greer, now.
Mr. President, sir, I just confirmed the UAP
with Dr. Kate Devlin at NASA.
Are you sure it's not just a failed satellite
that's falling out of orbit?
No, sir. It appears to be a nearly perfect sphere.
No known configuration matches this.
Russia and China deny involvement.
They're watching it, too.
What's the trajectory?
NASA and our military placed it directly
towards the East Coast, sir, near New York City.
All right. All right, let's put the National Guard on standby.
We'll issue a shelter in place from Manhattan
that surrounds an area.
-That should do it. -Will do, sir.
I'll also divert AWAC to intercept the monitor.
No, Ashe. I want a lot of eyeballs on this.
President McCoy saves the world.
Copy, sir.
Hello, chief?
Yes, put all carrier strike groups on alert.
Everybody's sufficiently scienced out.
Can we go have fun now?
Wait till you hear what we found.
Is it more important than camping?
Hey, I'm really sorry, honey,
but we gotta follow up on something we found.
I found it.
Yes, champ. You found.
Damn it.
Shouldn't gotten rid of the 250.
No way. EV all the way.
You made the right choice, Dad.
What's wrong with that?
What am I doing wrong?
Whoa. We're zapped and we have no idea how to fix it.
-Right, Dad? -Hey, hey, we can fix this.
See?
Told you.
All right.
Seat belts.
Mr. President.
It's half the size of the capital rotunda.
The estimate is 40 feet in diameter.
And it's just sitting there?
Yeah.
Well, sir, this is our science advisor,
Dr. Grace Whitney.
Thank you, Secretary.
There's no detectable activity in the UAP
since its arrival. It's an anomaly.
Why is it an anomaly?
Mr. President, it's a perfect sphere.
That's not natural, except in geodes
and those would shatter like glass on impact.
Couple with the fact that no agency,
military intelligence, or the scientific community
believes this is of terrestrial origin.
Okay, we know what it isn't. But what is it?
No, we can't ignore the possibility
of an extraterrestrial hostile threat.
We need to swiftly assess the situation, sir.
Agreed.
We get an investigative team on the ground right away.
Doctor, the scientist who originally spotted the anomaly,
do you have any background on him?
Yes, sir.
Dr. Jeff Morrow, widower, two kids,
he is an astrophysicist with a PhD from Caltech,
specializing in astrobiology.
He was at that space policy institute just a few months ago.
He discovered that fast radio anomaly,
the one that he nicknamed the Rubicon signal.
You met him last year.
Yes, and you dismissed his theory then.
He thought it was an attempt at communication.
First contact.
That's why he named it what he did.
Our entire universe would change if this was extraterrestrial.
And no scientific community ever confirmed that.
It was radio signals emitted by hydrogen.
Unusual, yes, but not completely unheard of.
In fact, most likely some are saying
that it would be a neutron star in its final death throws.
Or a precursor of a giant metal ball falling from the sky.
He obviously knows his stuff. He's not afraid to speak up.
And if we had listened to him then,
we'd be in a better position now.
I want him on the team.
Yes, sir.
Sir, we must consider the potential dangers here.
I recommend full mobilization.
Ashe, I understand your concern,
but we need more answers before we start pointing guns at it.
No answer.
I told him it was urgent and to call me back.
We don't have time for this. Have them send a chopper.
Sir, there's got to be people available
with similar or better qualifications.
Maybe, but clearly, Morrow has a clarity that they don't have.
And we need that now.
Grace, I want you to coordinate the military and NASA.
Ashe, you have to make sure that our troops
are prepared for any scenario.
Yes, sir.
Really, Adam? A whole box of beef jerky?
When the aliens attack, you'll be thanking me.
Dad, it's not really aliens, right?
Why don't you kids go inside and make some lunch, okay?
I'll finish up here.
Dad, it's only 9:30.
And I know when you're dodging a question.
Going in the house.
Dad, what's going on?
I don't know. You stay here.
Dr. Morrow?
Yes, I'm Dr. Morrow.
Captain Jaffe, Patrick Space Force Base.
Kids, hey, go back to the car.
Is this about that dot I found at the observatory?
Adam...
Well, is my son right?
I have orders from President McCoy
to fly you directly to New York.
Fly me? No, it's...
I'm sorry, Captain, I can't. I'm on vacation with my kids.
Wait, why New York?
That object you found?
It's sitting in the East River.
Wait, but if it landed...
I mean, you have teams to excavate that.
So you haven't excavated?
Why haven't you excavated?
What do you... What do you need from me?
I'll explain to you in the air. Let's go.
Leanne, is your cell phone working yet?
No.
Our car lost power.
Then, suddenly, our cell phones died,
and the car came back, but...
Maybe whatever's in New York,
hit one of our satellites went into our orbit.
What's going on?
Okay, I'll go.
But under one condition.
Go where?
You leave a frequency modulation radio with my kids.
You know, the old-school kind?
That way, I can stay in constant communication with them,
especially if another satellite goes down.
Dad, where are you going?
I'll get one.
I have to go to New York.
I'm going.
No, you're staying here with your sister, okay?
If this is about that dot that we found at the observatory,
then I'm the one that found it.
Leanne, Adam, Captain Jaffe is going to
set you up with the radio.
We'll be in constant communication.
Hope to be back before tonight, okay?
This is all set up.
All you need to do is power it on, push that button,
you can talk to your dad in the helo.
Can we go now?
This sucks, and you know it.
I know. I'm sorry.
I love you guys.
-Love you, too. -Okay.
I'll be back tonight, okay? I promise.
Stay safe.
I don't suppose we can drive there, right?
Soldier up, Doc.
The kids are watching.
You're going to save the world for them.
Let's go.
Dad hates to fly.
It must really be important.
Now, we've established a solid perimeter around the East River
and evacuated the press and any civilians.
In the meantime, we've deployed
surveillance drones around the anomaly.
But there's been no activity from the object?
Our reconnaissance team have reported no change.
It's just sitting there.
No reaction whatsoever. No signal, no light?
What is it, a ship and the crew died on impact?
Or are they in hypersleep? Or...
Or worse, are they readying for an attack?
All good questions we hope Dr. Morrow can help us answer.
What's the status of Morrow?
Somewhere over Pennsylvania.
Dr. Morrow is en route with Captain Jaffe.
They should be here shortly.
But until they arrive, as Secretary Greer mentioned,
we've deployed surveillance drones.
National Guard is evacuating Manhattan
and surrounding boroughs.
We cannot allow this to turn into a circus.
No matter what, that's going to take time.
New Yorkers will not be told what to do.
It's a good idea to get started though.
Thank you, sir.
We've also reached out to key allies
and are sharing what little information we have,
as well as coordinating response strategies.
Are we the only country with the UAP?
So far, there's been no indication
of similar craft elsewhere.
I guess that's a good thing.
All right, gentlemen. Keep me posted.
So you're telling me the President's team at NASA
think the Rubicon signal and this UAP are related?
Mm-hmm.
-So my son was right? -Yep.
You were right predicting it was some kind of communication.
Now we're hoping you can figure out a way
to communicate with it.
Wait, do they think there's life forms on board?
That's another reason you're here, Doc.
You're a xenobiologist.
You look for any life, I look for any trouble.
It's a perfect team-up.
It's for you, Doc.
Hello?
Hey, Dad.
You got the radio to work.
Dad, we're watching the news about that sphere in New York.
Isn't that where you're going?
Dad, they don't know what it is.
I don't think you're safe.
Listen, you stay inside, okay?
Do not leave unless you hear directly from me
or Captain Jaffe, okay?
Okay, be careful.
Love you.
Leanne?
Leanne, I can't hear you, honey. Honey?
I don't suppose there's any way I can get you
to airlift my kids to the West Coast?
If it comes to that, we can look at our options.
Listen, Doc.
My folks live in Pennsylvania, near the Ohio border.
It's not exactly the West Coast,
but if we need to do something immediate,
we can make sure all the right phone calls are made, all right?
Take care of your family.
Thank you, Captain.
We're in uncharted territory.
Yeah, that's why the President wants us
to gather information on this thing,
especially while it's still unmoving.
Oh... That reminds me.
What do you know about drones?
I mean, a little.
I bought one for my son.
I play with that thing more than he does.
Well, that's good.
We need to launch some at the sphere.
I need you to take readings and gather information while I fly.
Think you can handle that?
Okay.
You okay there, cowboy?
Captain Jaffe, what's your location?
ETA, three minutes, sir.
Do you have all the equipment you need?
We're readying the drone protocol put in place
by Dr. Whitney, sir.
Where's the setup device?
It's a laptop in back.
You okay to get it?
You okay, Doc?
Okay...
We need to get the sensor readings
before we use any of the more destructive equipment.
Okay, you get that started.
I'm gonna make sure we're good elsewhere.
Copy.
Mr. President, we have all the equipment
the Doc asked for.
Spectral analyzer, infrared cameras,
sonic drones, red, green, and UV lasers.
Good.
Gentlemen, stand by.
NASA has found no evidence of further vehicular anomalies.
-Yet. -Yet.
This may be the only one,
but they'll continue to scan until
we give them the all-clear.
Let's hope so.
Situation report?
Should the anomaly react in a hostile manner,
we are prepared to contain or destroy it.
Destroy it?
We'll be ready, Mr. President.
We have a Trident sub in the harbor.
All torpedoes are fully locked and loaded.
We have 10 fully-armed Blackhawks in close proximity.
A phalanx of tanks and mobile cannons
will be stationed offshore.
Five F-35s will be circling at 20,000 feet. We're ready.
That's fine for the immediate area, but what about the city?
What about Manhattan?
The National Guard is overseeing EVACs out of the city,
and they're doing their best to maintain order, sir.
Mr. President, do you concur
that sufficient precautions are in place for this operation?
I concur.
Captain Jaffe, did you copy all that?
I did, sir.
Proceed.
Loud and clear.
Approaching the anomaly now, sir.
We're heading in.
Gentlemen, if you'll excuse me.
-You good? -Mm-hmm.
FLIR cams are operational.
FLIR cams?
Forward looking infrared cameras.
They see heat.
They work great in smoke or dust.
Basically the brass is seeing everything
we're seeing right now.
Okay.
Let's go say hello.
Passive scans are done.
No reaction from the UAP.
Telemetry readings are flat across the board.
No additional heat.
Cold, radiation of any kind.
It's like it's not even there.
But we can see it so we know it reflects light.
That makes me want to see what a laser can do to it.
We should move on to the physical testing.
This is physical testing.
Oh!
Mr. President, did you see that?
We all did. The UAP is hostile.
General Vargas, send in the Blackhawks.
Engage.
Sir, there's a chance it was just maybe
reacting to what--
Captain, you may want to get out of the way.
Copy that, sir. I'm on it.
Shrapnel!
We're hit! Hang on!
We lost Jaffe's FLIR cam signal.
Get me a picture, people.
On it, sir.
Mr. President, it attacked us again.
General, give it hell.
All forces, authorization Alpha-Bravo-5-5.
Fire at will!
Where's that picture?
Network is down, sir. I'm working on it.
Captain Jaffe, do you report?
Commander Chow, do you copy?
Somebody give me some eyeballs on this now.
Hello? Report.
Aw, come on.
Can we get satellite imagery of New York?
We're blind here.
-All forces, status reports. -Commander Chow, sitrep.
Can anybody hear us?
Captain Jaffe, report.
We have communication.
Lost the FLIR cam, sir.
The enemy engaged and...
defeated our entire defensive line.
Colonel, how soon can you get them in the air?
Good. Do it.
Details, soldiers, we lost visuals.
Sir, it extruded weapons
and fire directed energy blasts at us.
Our armor and weapons were just entirely ineffective against it.
Captain, are you in position to observe and report
on the enemy's activities?
Affirmative, sir.
We'll maintain a flight status.
We've got three quarters of a tank of fuel left to preserve.
Maintain an open radio channel.
You're our eyes and ears until we get back up.
We're scrambling ten raptors from McGuire.
They're about ten minutes out.
Excited to see some payback, sir.
Let's get this son of a bitch.
Ashe, we need more fighters from bases further out.
-Make it happen. -Yes, sir.
Where the hell are my visuals?
We're working on it, sir.
Thank you. We appreciate it.
Yes. Confirmed.
Captain Jaffe, are you still with us?
Sir, the UAP has retracted its weapons
and it's headed towards the city.
We believe it's trying to avoid our counter strikes
by hiding amongst a civilian structures.
I don't think that's its plan, sir.
It's plowing through buildings like their made of cardboard.
Ask them where it's headed.
Do you have any idea where the sphere is headed?
We don't know its intended destination.
It's headed inland in a straight line,
ignoring all obstacles.
Just going right through them, sir.
Captain, listen to me.
Protect yourself, but we have to know
where that damn thing is headed, you understand?
Understood. Copy that.
Loud and clear, Mr. President.
This thing is clearly headed somewhere.
It's had no deviation whatsoever to its path.
Is the sphere firing any sort of ordnance?
It doesn't need to.
It's just driving right through everything.
General, let's call the mayor, have him issue
a shelter in place order for all the people
who didn't leave when we told them to before.
Leaving now would be like walking into a death trap.
Yes, sir.
We'll activate the Civil Defense Network.
All the people on the street
could take shelter in the subway.
We've got to have the streets clear.
Already on it, sir.
National Guard troops have begun civilian evacs
for all cities along the eastern seaboard.
We're telling everyone to move far inland as possible.
All right. Include all the neighboring states
because the whole east coast is a war zone now.
Yes, sir.
Sir, I don't want to talk out of turn,
but maybe it's time to address the nation.
There might be a lot of misinformation
going on out there.
Dr. Morrow!
Perhaps you should tend to your own affairs.
No, no, he's right.
We need to tell the people what's happening.
They are in the middle of it,
and there's no getting around that.
The news stations are all over it.
I need to address the nation.
What are you going to say?
I'm going to tell them the truth.
Is this helicopter okay after being hit by shrapnel?
Should we be following the sphere?
Do we need to land?
We're fine, Doc. Relax.
You handled yourself pretty well back there
for someone who was afraid of flying.
It's not that I'm afraid.
I... I just know the safety percentages.
Sure.
That's fine, Doc.
I mean, everyone's afraid of something, right?
What are you afraid of?
Me?
I'm a soldier.
I'm not allowed to be afraid of anything.
I still see a lot of people trying to get out.
Evacuating a city is never a fast process.
Are they firing guns at the sphere?
We have to get them out of there.
No. We're too far away. There's no time.
We have our orders.
They never had a chance.
Listen, that's going to be all of us.
if we don't figure out a way to stop that thing.
How? It destroys everything that gets near it.
We observe, we report,
we work smart, and we find a weakness.
If it has one.
Listen to me, Doc.
That's your job, is to find a weakness in that thing.
Where did it come from?
What is that thing?
Captain, clear that area.
I got ten raptors coming in weapons hot.
There's still thousands of people out there
trying to get out.
Negative, General.
Massive civilian casualties if you engage. Repeat....
Massive civilian casualties if you engage.
Abort!
Your call, sir.
This is strike team leader. Approaching the sphere.
Standing by.
Sir...
I may not have much of a legacy after today,
but it won't be over this. Abort.
Raptor commander, abort strike.
I say again, abort strike.
Copy that, General. Breaking off attack.
Bravo Alpha 10-10 confirmed.
Sir, you realize a day will come
when you won't have that option.
And if that day comes,
if there is no option, I will make that call.
Thank you, sir.
And I'll pray to God it doesn't come to that.
Did you see that?
It slowed down for the first time.
Okay, that's something.
But is it good or is it bad?
I don't know. I can't tell if it slowed
because it liked the electricity or if it didn't like it.
Either way, we need to find out, though.
General Vargas...
We heard, it stopped.
Let's try and get closer without attracting its attention.
And get us more intel now.
Copy that, sir. Will do.
I'm going to call my kids before we get too close.
Yeah.
The UAP is continuing to move inland.
The amount of devastation in its wake is staggering.
Here, you can see military helicopters firing on it,
but there seems to be little or no effect on the UAP.
It seems to have some sort of shield...
Dad? Where are you?
Did you see those explosions on the news?
What's going on?
Get Adam.
He's here.
Dad? Are you okay?
I'm still in the helicopter.
Listen...
Are the phones working yet?
Yes.
Okay, good. That's good.
Everything might be back.
Listen, I want you to load up the car.
Pack up the cases of water.
The food, battery chargers, this radio...
All of it.
Are we leaving? I thought you said to stay.
No, I know.
I know, but I just want you to be ready.
You got it?
Aren't we safe here? You told us to stay here.
Yes, but I...
Just be ready for anything.
Get the car ready.
Listen, honey, I gotta go.
I love you guys.
I'll check back in later.
That was weird, right?
I'll pack the food, you take care of the water?
Yeah.
Do you have any kids?
Yeah, I did.
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pry.
Yeah.
Hey, how low can we get this thing?
I want to look on the other side
and see what the electricity did to it.
I don't want to get so close
that it'll see us as a threat, but...
Let me see what I can do, Doc.
Where'd they come from? They shouldn't be here.
Civilian helicopter, leave the area immediately.
You are in danger. Repeat.
They're too close. They're too close.
Autogyro!
Brace yourself, Doc!
We're going down!
Hang on!
Sir, President Alexei Buryakov has initiated a call
on the Moscow-Washington Line.
Fidelity checks confirmed?
Confirmed, vetted and secure, sir.
We've also had an urgent request from the General Secretary
of the Chinese Military Commission.
Well, this could be offers of assistance
or simply a situation update.
Regardless, I will take my leave temporarily.
Orders, sir?
Standing orders.
Continue operations I've currently established.
Yes, sir.
Give me General Trowell on the line.
-Wait, my equipment! -Leave it, Doc, let's move!
Easy, easy, soldier!
You guys are the luckiest bastards I've ever seen,
because that thing,
that thing just took out the rest of those news choppers
right after y'all went down.
There were more?
Private, where's your commanding officer?
I'm it, sir.
I'm sorry about that.
We were securing an evacuation when all of a sudden
that damn bowling ball breached our positions in seconds.
Do you have a sat phone?
No, sir.
I was hoping maybe you guys might...
Wait, there's one on the chopper.
No, Doc, wait, no!
Doc, you okay?
Hang on, Shepherd, hang on.
Oh!
I'm okay.
Oh! Oh!
Easy.
Damn!
Easy, easy, easy, easy.
-Oh my God. -Doc, are you hit?
No, I'm okay.
All right.
That should hold for now. Stop the bleeding.
Captain, your vest.
Well, guess he was right.
I guess we're the lucky ones.
How's he doing?
He's all right for now,
but we got to get him some real medical attention.
This phone's toast.
Where's your phone?
Okay...
Come on.
There we go. There we go.
All right.
Wait, you don't know the password.
Don't need one.
You can dial 911 from every cell phone, even if it's locked.
Once I get an operator, we'll be good to go.
Hopefully the cell towers are still up.
Don't worry, Doc.
I'll have us in a helo back to Washington as soon as possible.
Gentlemen, welcome to Washington, D.C.
President McCoy is temporarily engaged
in affairs of this state.
At ease, Captain.
-Thank you, sir. -What does that mean?
It means when world leaders call asking questions
about our situation, he has to be the one to answer.
Understood.
Um... Who do we report to?
You're talking to him.
Secretary of Defense Ashe Greer.
Dr. Morrow, Captain Jaffe,
we're grateful for the firsthand intelligence you provided.
Thank you, sir.
Hopefully it's something you can use.
Actually, a news helicopter did.
Really?
They captured a moment just before it was shot down.
Well, let's take a look.
Dr. Morrow, we're about to being a major operation.
It's something we can discuss after this next engagement,
should it prove necessary.
Where is the sphere now?
About to enter the upper bay, just north of the Jersey Shore.
Where we have four Navy destroyers
waiting for it to clear the civilian quadrant.
And once it enters the water,
it'll be subjected to a fuselage of 10-inch shells,
as well as a simultaneous missile aerial strike
from 10 F-22 Raptors.
We have a battery of tanks on the Jersey side
to prevent its egress from the bay.
Sir, conventional weapons don't seem to work against it
it just destroys whatever is perceives as a threat.
Nothing beats a try but a failure, Dr. Morrow.
Satellite imaging on screen.
Mr. Secretary?
Spearhead, Talon. You are weapons-free.
Fire at will.
This is Spearhead, reading you loud and clear.
Commencing fire, sir.
General, sitrep.
The attack appears to be working, sir.
The sphere slowed down.
It could be adapting.
Tankers, stand down! Do not engage!
I repeat, do not engage! All units, retreat!
Do not engage! Get the hell out of there!
Analysis. We just lost a lot of good people.
I need to know why.
It changed tactics.
It didn't even use its beam weapons.
At all.
It took our own missiles and used them against us.
They either just tested that tactic for the first time,
or they just wanted us to know they could do it.
Either way...
General, what are we dealing with here?
I don't know.
But we need to find out.
So this is the footage from the news helicopters?
Yes.
That's the last footage that the news helicopter sent back.
There. That's where it paused.
Do you see how the electricity flows around the sphere?
We saw this in person.
It's like the electricity is holding it there.
Or it's choosing to hold there.
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. And do you see how
the ripple effects on the sphere right before
it plows into the power station?
We saw the same effect when it got hit by the 10-inch guns.
Yeah, but we didn't see that ripple effect
when the drone pointed the laser at it.
No, that first beam was the equivalent of a cat toy.
It's essentially harmless,
but I believe it may have been interpreted as a hostile act.
So, what's going on here, Doctor?
And you are a doctor, right?
So is this an it, or is it a they?
Is it a machine that we have to break,
or is it some kind of alien soldier that we need to kill?
I honestly don't know, sir, but I'm not sure how that matters.
It matters to me.
Well, if there are lifeforms on board,
they're very well protected.
And if it is akin to a drone,
then it's just going to keep doing what it does
until it runs out of power.
We figured that out for ourselves, Dr. Morrow.
Mr. President.
Mr. Secretary, Dr. Morrow has the floor.
Yes, sir.
We have enough problems without issues of respect.
Yes, sir.
Were your discussions productive?
As much as they can be with world leaders
who have access to nuclear weapons
and are more concerned about our lack of progress.
We appreciate your candor, sir.
The good news is that they have offered access
to their military and university science divisions.
Good. That's a lot of extra brain power
and potential firepower to bring to the table.
Well, let's make use of it.
Your respective counterparts will be linking to you shortly.
Thank you, sir.
I'm looking forward to it, sir.
Let's go.
Dr. Whitney, has NASA reported any further spheres or objects?
No, but they've got all available observatories
and satellites watching the skies.
Okay.
I believe we should follow up on this observation
that electricity or electromagnetic energy
in the power station affected it.
I agree. But completely correlating this data
is going to take a lot of time.
Which is the one thing we have precious little of.
Thank you.
You aren't the only people who have scientists on speed dial.
I've just received an alternate plan
from the CERN think tank in Geneva.
CERN?
The European Council for Nuclear Research?
No, they run the Collider.
They run the largest particle physics laboratory in the world.
They deal exclusively with cutting-edge technology.
Yes, that's true, sir, but...
-Mr. Morrow. -Doctor.
Doctor Morrow.
They have a workable plan. Do you?
No.
Not as of yet, but that's why we need more time
to analyze the data.
CERN has analyzed the data,
and they have a proposal which we can implement now.
Doctor, sit down, please.
Mr. Secretary, proceed.
Thank you.
I've just received confirmation that my colleagues
in CERN have designed a definitive strike.
Why are we just hearing about this now?
They're working out the math, sir,
which you can appreciate, doctor.
At any rate, they fill a direct payload of liquid nitrogen
would freeze at least a portion of the sphere
before it has a chance to attack,
whereupon repetitive direct hits
should crack it open like an eggshell.
Yeah, it's like putting a rubber ball in liquid nitrogen.
Drop it, it'll shatter like glass.
What do you think, Dr. Morrow?
I mean, it's technically viable, but...
But how the hell are you going to get liquid nitrogen on it?
Are you going to drop it from a tree?
General?
The Sikorsky King Stallion can easily carry a tanker
full of liquid nitrogen.
Yeah, and the Warthog A-10s have the precision accuracy
to pound that thing over and over again,
'til they get the job done.
Get me Colonel Watt at the 87 Air Base Wing in the line.
Sir, you're going to need somebody
to lase that target and guide those gunners.
You've done enough, soldier.
You know that's never the answer, sir.
Take care of yourself, Captain.
I'll try, sir.
Can I just be the voice of reason and point out
that we don't know what's going to spill out
of that Easter egg when you crack it open?
This is why we'll need a trained observer in the field.
Thank you for volunteering, Doctor.
Volunteering?
Yeah, come on, Doc.
Don't break up the team now.
Let's do this.
Let's go.
Good trick.
I'm glad they were able to evacuate.
Me, too.
If we're pointing another laser at the sphere,
we need to make sure we do not miss.
Why?
We have to keep it pinpointed on the coat of ice
formed by the liquid nitrogen, not the sphere's surface.
If we do, it might...
it might notice us.
I'm keeping us at a distance that seems to be safe, Doc.
We stay at least 200 feet away, it's ignoring us.
Okay. Okay.
I'm trusting you.
I'll keep the bird steady. You do your part.
Ice, guns, shatter.
The hogs are locked in on the beam.
This will be over in no time. Trust me.
You know what I don't understand?
Where is it going?
Why is it going there so slowly?
It's like it...
it's like they want us to shoot at it.
Look, I don't have a problem with that, Doc.
This thing has killed thousands of people.
It needs to be stopped, put down hard, now.
This thing just doesn't make sense.
Look, it doesn't need to. It just needs to be dead.
Hammer, this a sky watch. We're in position.
Drop the payload.
Please work.
Come on.
-Yeah, direct hit! -Yes!
Lase the target, Doc.
Right there, top of the sphere.
Strike team, target is lit. Take this bastard out, now.
Damn it!
The ice is disintegrated, but...
The sphere looks undamaged.
It's not moving, though.
Maybe it was affected.
All right. I'm going to call for them to make another run.
Wait, wait. Hold on. Do not fire.
Look. There. At the bottom.
It's beginning to ripple.
Just like it did before the last attacks.
All right. I'm backing off to give the Warthogs clearance.
Call off the second wave!
We all need to evac now.
Abort! Abort!
Hang on!
Land this thing right now.
We're the only other target in the sky.
Good call, Doc. Hang on!
Whoa, whoa whoa!
Oh, I'm gonna be sick!
Stow it, doctor. Do it outside.
We got a long ride back.
Ugh...
McGuire, this is Skywatch.
The operation was a total failure.
Repeat, total failure.
Returning to base.
Damn it!
The sphere is now firing beams and destroying power stations.
There's parts of New Jersey without power.
Did the sphere change course?
No, on the same course, south through New Jersey.
But electrical power stations within
a 20-mile radius are blowing up.
It's crippling our infrastructure.
We need other options.
This damn metal ball cannot be impervious
to everything we have.
It's either deflected or defeated
every single conventional weapon that we've thrown at it.
The Royal Canadian Air Force is dispatching
a squadron of CE-145C vigilance aircraft,
ETA is four hours out.
Having more eyes on the sky is a good thing,
but we need superior firepower.
Has anybody else offered anything?
We've shared every bit of intel with the scientific community
and the military of all nations.
They're working on their own data analysis.
They'll all help in their own way,
but they're all worried they might be next,
so they don't want to draw attention to themselves,
and I can't say that I blame them.
CERN is working out another plan.
When Dr. Morrow returns, have him integrate himself
with all of these scientific agencies.
This is no longer just an American problem.
Yes, sir.
Make sure he gets access to that video he's been asking about.
If he's on to something, we're going to need it pronto.
Assembling it now.
Let's have that video sent up to the SATCOM room,
have copies sent over to JPL, NASA, and Space Lab,
and any other armchair space nerd that Morrow trusts.
Absolutely, sir.
Let's go, people. We're not living in a vacuum.
Let's get some eyeballs on this.
Where's Captain Jaffe now?
He should be landing in McGuire by now.
All right, Doc.
Coming up on the base.
Thank God.
We're setting down.
I am never, ever getting back on one of those things ever again.
Truth is, I've done much worse,
so you need to walk it off, Doc.
We've got way bigger problems to deal with.
You're right, Captain. I'm... I'm sorry.
Look at you. Starting to rub off on you.
Make a soldier out of you yet.
I got to check in. Let's go.
Captain, I know we lost a lot of people.
I know we're missing something.
I'm missing something.
Hey, do not go down that path, Doc.
NASA and CERN haven't figured out a way
to stop that damn thing.
Do not do that to yourself.
You know what I keep going back to?
I keep thinking about that incident at the power plant.
I mean, you saw it, right? It stopped for a reason.
Yeah.
Just, I just need to figure out why.
Okay.
What do you need?
I need to look at all the available data.
Wait, do we have access to that footage here?
Yeah, I can get it.
Okay.
I also need to talk to Dr. Devlin at NASA.
Okay, there's a phone in the office. Come on.
There you go.
I'll be back.
Devlin here.
Dr. Devlin, it's Dr. Morrow.
Has your agency detected any other spheres in orbit?
No.
Well, anyone else?
ESA? Ruscosmos?
No, no one's reported anything.
Would you be able to backtrack
and give an estimate on its point of origin?
Already on it.
We detected a faint radiation trail
that we've been backtracking.
Well, where's it leading back to?
Deep space.
Jeff, your, um...
Your fast radio burst theory.
Your Rubicon signal.
We said it was a random burst of noise.
You said it was an attempt at first contact.
Okay, it doesn't...
We have concluded the source of the radiation trail
and the FRB have the same point of origin.
Oh.
Hang on, Jeff, we may have something for you.
No.
No? No, what?
Dr. Morrow, your FRB was a warning.
We found even more spheres.
And they're in our solar system close to Jupiter.
Dr. Morrow we may have...
a doomsday situation on our hands.
Ten spheres situated around Jupiter.
Are you kidding me?
NASA tracked the origin of the first sphere.
It's the same exact location of Dr. Morrow's fast radio burst.
The Rubicon signal.
That he said was extraterrestrial communication.
The origin point led us to these.
Ten more spheres.
Ready to attack at a moment's notice.
Jesus, we're struggling with one.
Sir, we need to alert our allies.
I'm very sorry, sir, but there's more.
What am I looking at here?
In addition to the ten spheres,
Dr. Morrow and Dr. Devlin believe that it's actually
a fleet.
Extraterrestrial ships ready to finish the job.
Has this been verified?
It's the same exact location as Dr. Morrow's FRB.
It doesn't make any sense.
Why would ET give us a roadmap to where they're hiding?
Well, we don't think that's what they did.
We think that the last planet that they destroyed
was a warning to us.
A bit of a jump in logic there.
Possibly.
But NASA is retargeting the Hubble and the James Webb,
so we will know soon enough.
This is an extraterrestrial fleet.
It is the most logical conclusion
given the available data, sir.
Now, is this fleet en route?
We don't know, but NASA is checking as we speak.
If they start to advance...
We think that they're going to send the 10 ships
near Jupiter first.
I mean, it could just be more drones.
But I guess we shouldn't rule out
something like a first wave of alien soldiers.
Either way, Mr. President,
it would be prudent to assume that
we are facing an imminent hostile invasion.
Get me Captain Jaffe and Dr. Morrow on the horn.
Come on.
Patch me through to Captain Jaffe.
All right, let's go.
This is Captain Jaffe.
Captain Jaffe, do you have Dr. Morrow there with you?
Yes, sir.
It's the President.
Sir, may I put you on speakerphone?
Please.
Dr. Morrow, are there any further details
you can provide me with regarding this fleet?
You seem to be the only one who had any idea
that there was potentially something out there
three months ago.
I see you talked to Dr. Whitney.
Sir, after studying this sphere,
I am fully convinced that it is a probe.
A probe?
Yeah, it's collecting our data, sir.
Probing our defenses.
I kept asking myself why.
Why is it moving so slowly?
Like it wants us to shoot at it.
Which we have been.
Just like we're supposed to, sir.
Every time we attack it,
it just relays our defenses to its main fleet.
The units we discovered near Jupiter.
That's the real invading force.
And they'll destroy us all.
Whether through unmanned weaponry
or full-on alien soldiers.
We need to be prepared for it all.
What is this based on?
It's empirical, sir.
But Dr. Devlin thinks it's a possibility, too.
But that's it. That's all I got.
Anyone else?
Mr. President, I concur with Dr. Devlin
and Dr. Morrow.
I do, too, sir.
This is a basic military strategy.
It's assembling its forces.
It's sending out its scouts to verify
enemy position and strength.
It's going to soften up its targets
and invade when the resistance has been eliminated.
Where is this sphere now?
It's just outside of Baltimore, sir.
Where it's been systematically targeting
our electrical power substations.
I have family in Baltimore.
All of Baltimore has been evacuated.
Half the Eastern seaboard is without power.
They've obviously been studying us
and our power grid in great detail.
How long before the sphere is in DC?
We've extrapolated this all based on its movement
since its arrival.
How did you figure out the path?
All right.
I believe that it is slow walking to the people's house,
which is the real seat of power in this country,
and is going to be gathering data all along the way.
As you said, Dr. Morrow.
Two hours and seven minutes until it reaches
this exact location, sir.
And then?
That'll be the showdown.
Captain Jaffe, Dr. Morrow.
the CERN plan is a failure.
We need you here in DC to formulate
a new plan of attack if you are willing.
Yes, sir.
Marine 1 is en route to pick you up over and out.
I know. We have to be in DC ASAP.
My house might be in the direct line of the sphere's path.
I've got to get my kids.
You told them to pack up the truck and be ready to go.
I'm sure they can clear the area.
You heard those guys.
Half the Eastern seaboard is without power.
All right. I'll send a detail to secure your kids
on the way to DC.
Captain, I have to get my kids.
No. We need to get to Washington.
I will send soldiers to retrieve your family.
That's not good enough.
Those Army guys are out there doing Army stuff.
I need to guarantee my kids are safe.
Fine. I'll go.
You get into that chopper to Washington right now.
And I'll get your kids, I swear.
Thank you, Captain Jaffe.
It's Sean.
Thank you, Sean.
It's approaching the outskirts of the city, sir.
All of DC has been evacuated.
All non-essential personnel have been moved to a safer location.
Mr. President, we should consider moving
to a secure location as well.
I agree, sir.
Dr. Morrow, Captain Jaffe just checked in.
He's about to pick up your kids.
Thank you, sir. I'm very grateful.
-You're welcome. -Family first.
That's the motto I ran on.
That's why I voted for you, sir.
Dr. Devlin reports that the fleet hasn't moved,
nor have the 10 spheres near Jupiter.
So they're definitely waiting for the sphere
to reach the capital.
Sir, joint special operations
have arranged for experimental railguns
to be deployed within five hours.
Five hours?
They're installed on our destroyers.
That's how long it's going to take to unmount them
and fly them to this location.
How long until the sphere gets here?
An hour and 52 minutes, sir.
Is there any branch of the military
that can deploy something?
No, sir.
Nothing that wouldn't hurt us as much as it hurt them.
You've got to give me something.
Anything. There's got to be something.
You are missing something, General.
Give me 15 minutes, sir.
I believe I may have something.
Leanne, something's coming.
It's the sphere. We've got to go now.
It's not the sphere.
It's Dad!
Adam!
Dad! Dad!
Hang on. Don't get too close.
-We've got to move. -Where's Dad?
He's doing his job. Mine is to keep you safe.
Move. Let's go. Come on. Go!
Let's go, kids. Come on. Move!
Wait. We need to go back.
-We left our stuff. -Strap in and hold on.
Adam, it doesn't matter.
We'll buy new stuff.
Should be a fun ride.
Now remember, up until this point,
the sphere plowed through a dozen buildings
without even blinking.
And then suddenly, it slows down at a power station.
Why?
The electrical discharge from the transformers.
Yes.
Why there?
Because of this.
Now it took me forever to notice this,
but we may have found a potential weakness.
Doc, what are we looking for?
So, frame two.
There's a blur distortion here.
And then frame A, it's gone.
Now it's easy to miss, but the fact is,
the sphere is sharp up until here,
and then it goes soft at this point,
right as it plows through the buildings.
And this means what exactly?
It means it has a force field.
That's the attenuation of light
through an intense magnetic field.
Yes. And that's the critical point.
Not only does it have a force field,
it doesn't have it on all the time.
Why not?
I can answer that.
It's a major power drain.
Precisely.
It's needs something strong enough to shrug off
all the stuff you've been throwing at it.
But that requires massive amounts of energy.
So I've combed through all the available video footage
I could find between every interaction with the sphere.
Watch.
On, off. On, off.
Now it's subtle, but it's unmistakably there.
The clear interaction between photons
and an electromagnetic field
strong enough to pull them off course.
But why didn't we see this before?
We were too far away.
Frankly, too busy evading explosions.
Well, we wouldn't have caught it at all
if you and Captain Jaffe
hadn't risked your lives to report the attack.
Footage those news helicopters captured was instrumental.
Sir, I believe we might have a possible turning point.
Explain, you gotta explain that, Doctor.
Sir, every time we attack this thing,
it turns on its force field.
Any time it wants to bulldoze something,
it turns on its force field.
I think that maybe... Maybe...
It's vulnerable when its field is not on.
Well, what about New York when you hit it with a laser pointer?
No, you already had all your assault weapons on the field.
All I did was ring the bell up for round one.
He's right.
That sphere engaged every piece of ordnance we threw at it.
Took out our Blackhawks, our F-35s,
our tanks, our mobile artillery.
And it kept moving inland for more.
Everything that this thing does is either a weapons test
or an assets crippler.
Our power grid infrastructure.
Correct.
All right, so how do we use this knowledge?
Okay, we know the unexpected surge
from the power plant caught it by surprise.
And it stopped short before it could turn
the field back on and protect it.
So it's only active when a threat is perceived?
Otherwise it conserves power.
So we need to isolate it and throw something
it can't see and prepare for?
We might be able to penetrate its defenses.
What can we throw at this that we haven't already?
What about an EMF?
Yes.
Yes, our own electromagnetic field.
I mention that because the White House
has a lot of pulse generators
in its surrounding buildings in case of unknown attacks.
Well, if we could use those, we could possibly set up a trap.
Find an area where we can bombard it with EMF pulses
and hopefully we catch it by surprise.
Weaken its shielding and disrupt it.
How do you get it into the trap?
What's the bait?
That's the easy part, sir.
We know exactly where it's going and how it's getting there.
Speaking of coming and going, where are my kids?
Dr. Whitney, has the captain checked in?
Yes. The captain has brought your kids
to his parents' home in Pennsylvania.
And then they're going to head to Tobyhanna Army Depot.
Thank you.
Okay, commandeer all resources necessary
to implement this plan, Mr. Secretary.
Yes, sir.
What do we do once the sphere has been stunned?
Blow it up.
No, nothing you've hit it with affects it.
We don't know what will work.
We haven't thrown everything at it yet.
Are you suggesting we go nuclear on it?
No, absolutely not.
We need to isolate it and throw everything we got left at it.
Cluster, combustible, chemical, whatever.
How do you isolate a floating ball?
I don't know, Dr. Morrow. Why don't you tell me?
Enough. We need ideas, okay?
In the meantime, let's just work on getting this EMF in place.
The bunkers.
The underground bunkers in the White House.
Are they... Do we have access to those here?
It's not like that, Dr. Morrow.
Okay, but if we can find a place along the sphere's path
that aligns with the underground maze of bunkers,
then we can spring...
I'm not following you, Doctor.
Okay.
Look, I know I'm not from here,
but I know there are bunkers here.
Some place where the senators and the president go to be safe.
Right?
Yes, there is.
Okay, we find a place along the sphere's path,
then we open one up, create a hole,
and then we bombard it with the EMF blast.
It falls into this concrete area,
and then you, General, you just, you go at it.
You just hit it with everything you got, all right?
Full court press, kitchen sink,
whole nine yards, everything,
everything you got, but no nukes.
That's your plan, huh?
Yeah.
All right, let's make this happen.
Really?
Hey, good, bad, it's the only plan
I'm hearing in this room right now.
You're right, Mr. President.
We'll survey the area for the best site right away.
Good. You have only about 80 minutes.
Get the demolition team ready.
About three would do it.
Four to be sure.
Once it's in, we isolate it,
then we throw everything we got at it.
Dr. Morrow?
That simultaneous attack combined
with the EMF bombardment?
Even in its battle mode, we might stand a chance.
But we'll only have seconds,
if that much before it turns back on its defenses.
We should move to the fallout shelter
beneath the Capitol building.
We'll be much safer there.
Agreed.
Let's go, everyone, now.
Good job, Dr. Morrow.
Come on, move it, soldier.
It's right at Lafayette Square, it's the perfect place.
It's so damn close to the White House.
It's in direct path, so we're going to have plenty of room.
All right, look, no one is going to miss
Andrew Jackson's statues, so go ahead, blow that up.
Our EMF generators will be deployed
here, here, here, and here.
Now, the sphere is going to destroy the White House.
We're going to weaken the sphere with the EMF pulse blast
and then blow a crater open,
drop the sphere into the hole, and then what?
A squadron of F-15s from Langley and Seymore Johnson
will target the sphere with side-winder missiles.
But the sphere has been turned to ballistic missiles
back on themselves.
Yes, sir. It's why we're using multiple waves, sir.
The hope is that the sphere will be weakened by the EMF field.
Our fighters will be able to launch their missiles
then retreat to a safe distance.
Attention!
Yes, sir.
As you were.
So four squadrons consisting of five F-15s each
will attack, then circle back for a second pass?
There will be a continuous barrage of bullets and shells,
as well, from our ground forces.
So the combined barrage with the EMF pulse blasts
will weaken it and hopefully burn out the force field?
That's our hope, sir.
Projected casualties, General?
For our ground troops, 80 percent, sir.
Oh, God.
Yes.
This is our last stand, sir.
Every man and woman on that line
understands what will happen here today.
And they all showed up for duty.
Well, let's make sure that this day
is a day we can all be proud of,
no matter the outcome.
Yes, sir.
History will judge.
Now, we ignored the Rubicon's signal when it first appears.
But we will not ignore it now.
Now, where is the sphere and how soon can we be ready to go?
It's in direct route for the capital, sir.
It's one click out.
And it doesn't know that we are here.
I hope not.
Another question I have is, why us?
Well, why D.C.?
Well, why doesn't it attack New York or Los Angeles,
London, Sao Paulo?
Why doesn't it attack the major population centers?
It's testing us.
It knows that if it can take us down in D.C.,
then it can take the whole world down with it.
Doctor, are you not sure about all this?
No, sir. Not entirely.
But there has to be a reason
why they haven't unleashed their full army yet.
Dr. Morrow might be on to something, Mr. President.
They could be trying to eliminate
their biggest threat to assert their dominance.
Sir, the EMFs are in position.
Thank you. It's time.
Here we go.
All teams ready.
Standing by, sir.
The field is yours, General.
Demolition team, confirm target coordinates.
T minus 35 seconds.
-35 seconds. -35 seconds. Copy that.
Sky team, land team on one.
10, 9,
8, 7, 6,
5, 4, 3,
2, 1.
Engage.
Fire in the hole.
It's rippling.
It's analyzing the attack.
Keep it off balance.
Keep hitting it.
Increase the EMF pulses. Just keep it overwhelmed.
Get it in the hole, Morales.
It missed. That means it's working, right?
It missed.
It's in the hole.
Blow that damn thing up!
Captain, status report.
Captain, do you copy?
We lost visuals. There's too much smoke.
Did we get it?
Spotter, target status.
Negative, sir, no visual.
Sanders, updates.
Ordinance confirmed and deployed.
Did we get it?
Can't tell.
Is there a spectral graph? Anything?
It's too much damn smoke.
Screw it. Hit it again.
All units, resume attack. Fire at will.
Blackhawks, EMFs on. Converge on sphere.
All teams, danger close. Exercise extreme caution.
Anything?
Nothing yet, sir.
Com line 32 down. 43 down.
Captain, hello.
113, 264 down.
Captain, status report.
What was that?
Status report, Captain.
Did it work? Does that mean we won?
We don't know.
You saw how it destroyed everything around it.
That was the final death throes of a once formidable enemy.
The brave men and women who sacrificed their lives
to see it finally destroyed will not soon be forgotten.
On this day, that would be written
as a new chapter in American history.
One where Americans showed what they do best.
We do not bow to those who wish to see us destroyed.
You're goddamn right, sir.
Mr. President, our contact in Moscow
says they're getting some odd readings.
-Mr. President. -Yes.
I got a message from the strategic air defense, Norad.
10?
10 spheres just dropped into our atmosphere?
This is far from over. It's just begun.
How did they get here so fast?
Weren't they at Jupiter?
It doesn't matter. They're here already.
That's what that red flash was.
They were summoning backup.
A beacon.
What did we do now? We could barely handle one.
All right, Ashe, you got to get down the horn
and alert all the world leaders that at least the EMF
will potentially stun the sphere.
Yes, sir. I'll have my people call right away.
We have a few more options on the table, sir.
All right, let's explore the least extreme first.
We'll have time for the others later.
Sir, we start lobbing nukes at this thing,
the entire planet will be uninhabitable.
We're not lobbing nukes anywhere, okay?
We're not lobbing nukes.
Relaying our EMF strategy every military force is a good start.
There's not enough EMFs on the planet.
Sir, another sphere is headed this way.
Sir, we should evacuate while there's still time.
No. No, there's no way to run. There's no time.
I wouldn't leave anyway.
But you should all leave now.
Not a chance, sir.
We have a chance to stop it while we're here, sir.
For the sake of the entire planet, I'm...
I'm staying, too.
Okay. What do we do now?
Well, about six years ago in the previous administration,
we approved an orbital satellite carrying munitions to ISS.
Are you telling me we have a weapons platform in orbit?
That's a violation of every International Space Treaty
and agreement, Ashe.
Understood.
But we had reason to suspect the Russians
were already doing this.
What kind of weapons are we talking about?
Missiles? Nukes? EMFs?
-Lasers. -Not EMFs.
No.
But lasers can be used to generate
electromagnetic radiation within a specific wavelength frequency.
We might get lucky.
Okay. So where are they?
On the International Space Station?
No, sir. We never got that far.
They're circling the Earth, waiting to be docked.
Or launched? We're going to talk about this later, Ashe.
Can you communicate with these satellites?
I need to make a few calls.
I'm going to call my kids.
Moscow, Paris, and London.
They've just reported the sphere's made landfall.
They've initiated combat, sir.
God...
God help us.
There's no tentative probing anymore.
Any engagement is final.
Doctor, what's the ETA in the sphere targeting all DC?
Honestly, any moment.
Unless they're targeting higher population centers
like Los Angeles or New York.
Listen to me. We are Earth's last hope.
We don't get those satellites online,
it is over, people.
Yes, sir. We call it in our last fighters.
We're setting up a perimeter of tanks and mobile utilities.
What about the EMF units?
We're not sure if they'll still be effective.
We have no way to coordinate with the EMFs once they arrive.
Skywatch, to Talon. Over.
Sean?
Get him up on comms.
Skywatch, Talon here. What's your 20?
Ready to land, Talon.
I got a job for you, son.
I thought I missed the party.
Looks like I'm right on time.
Sean, it's so good to hear your voice.
My kids?
On the outskirts of Pittsburgh right now.
With my parents.
Probably eating some cookies.
Thank you.
We take care of our own, Doc.
General, how can I be of service?
Stand by, Captain.
Copy that, sir.
We're going to zap it first with the EMFs.
Then all batteries, fire on incoming bogies,
all interceptors, fire on incoming bogies.
Take this out of my sky.
We just knocked it off course, that's all.
It just bought us some time.
Devlin here.
We've initiated contact with the orbital platform
and are attempting to activate the laser targeting systems.
Are we ready?
We believe all satellite targeting systems
have been successfully activated.
What do you mean, believe?
They've never been tested, sir.
Some diagnostics did not respond fully.
How many?
All of them think they're on.
They just never fully passed a weapons check.
What does that even mean?
If it fails, we'd be alerting the enemy.
Now, are we a go, sir?
The timing on this is very critical.
Every affected country has to know exactly
when to blast the sphere and we will zap them then.
Are these satellites in the correct orbital positions
to target the spheres?
The satellites are in a geostationary orbit
and their weapons are aimed at the same capital cities
that the spheres chose to target.
We've given every military commander
all the info we've learned.
I hope it's sufficient.
Sir, the sphere is active.
We're not ready yet.
We need to fire the lasers now, sir.
No, you can't defeat the spheres with normal weapons.
We need those lasers. We need the EMFs.
Have you alerted all the leaders?
Russian and Italy are the last ones.
Wait. I've got Italy's coordinates.
Still waiting on Russia.
Sir!
Sir, the sphere is three minutes away and closing fast.
Hold.
Give me the President of Russia on the phone.
Give me Captain Jaffe on the line.
-Line four. -Captain Jaffe.
What do you need, Doc?
Do you still have those portable EMFs from your last skirmish?
We have three Blackhawks in the vicinity with the EMFs.
Great. Use them to stall the sphere.
We just need a little more time.
You hear that, Captain?
Loud and clear.
You stall them, but you do not engage.
Copy that.
Man, this thing just won't give up.
EMFs are engaged.
Is it slowing down?
Target locked.
Missile away.
-Contact. -Result?
Shaken, but not stirred.
The sphere is still headed in this direction.
How many more missiles do you got?
One more.
I'm going to close for this one.
Sean, remember, no less than 200 feet.
No can do, Doc.
I'm taking this one right into its heart.
Take care of your family, Doc.
Got some great kids there.
Charge and ready to deploy, sir.
Missile locked.
Fire the jam laser.
Missile away.
-Fire! -Fire!
Attack it with everything we've got left!
Fire!
It's getting closer.
Oh, this will work. It has to.
I hope you're right, doctor.
This whole place is coming down.
Out, out, everyone out.
Get the president out of here, now.
Everyone, let's go!
Everybody out, let's go!
Move, move, move!
Let's go. Let's go, now.
Doctor, now, let's go!
Hey, I think we found someone!
Over here, hurry!
I can't believe you two got here so fast.
We were right by an air base, Dad.
It was easy to hitch a ride.
Especially since everyone wanted to make sure
we got here before you woke up.
It was all over the news.
There were aliens inside the ship.
Wait, those weren't drones?
No, at least the ones near Jupiter weren't.
But the news said that it was likely
the first wave of alien soldiers.
But the ships have all been destroyed,
and everything inside of them.
The president said you did that? You blew them all up?
No, we did that. Our team.
Well, you guys kicked ass.
What about Captain Jaffe?
He, uh...
He kicked the most ass out of any of us.
This way, sir. He's just through these curtains.
I'll tell you about it later.
Hello, uh, president and, uh, doctor.
Are we supposed to salute?
Is everyone...
Everyone made it out of the bunker.
Everything is fine, son.
We wanted to show you this.
What's this?
That is your Rubicon signal. You were right all along.
You were also right it didn't matter that
there were aliens inside.
But as soon as they realized that we could break their toys,
they left the playground and went straight home.
Let's go.
I'm just sorry it took me
so long to figure out how to beat them, sir.
But you did it.
And I want you on my staff, Dr. Morrow.
Well, that's...
it's very flattering, sir, but, um...
I actually wanted to stay out of politics.
Well, maybe part-time consultant.
You think about it. The country needs you.
Okay. Thank you, sir.
I'll... I'll think about it.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
-Sean! -Captain Jaffe?
You're alive?
Yeah.
You're kidding me, right?
POTUS, president of the United States,
offers you a full-time position and you'll think about it?
What's there to think about?
Well, I didn't say no, sir. I...
It's a big decision.
Come on, man.
So, you must be the young man who first spotted the UAP.
On behalf of a grateful country, I want to thank you.
Thank you, Mr. President.
You know, I could do a lot more if I had a job at NASA.
Sir.
Well, the word intern comes to mind.
Paid, of course.
What about you, young lady?
Oh, um, I've had enough space drama
to last me a lifetime, so...
I understand.
Um, however, Earth and environmental studies...
Oh, my area of interest.
I am in need of an assistant.
Oh, a job offer?
Mm-hmm.
Then I accept.
Well, looks like we're going to be in D.C. for a while.
Yes, we are.
然後快停下來 我們上路了，保證。
週六，羅賓叔叔 和他的奴才後代
會在那裡擊敗我們並且
我們會遇到最壞的情況 又是露營地。
沒有最糟糕的地方。
衹是有一點 不太理想。
有一些糟糕的、可怕的地方， 我們總是能得到它們
因為我們一直在做 這些快速停留。
親愛的，新天文臺， 新老闆，新責任。
本來可以拒絕這份工作。
哦，是的。
嘿，怎麼是新的？ 非常昂貴的電話
為你鍛鍊嗎？ 哈，小子？
點已採取。
我比較喜歡你的時候 曾在喬治華盛頓大學工作。
我的那裡很漂亮 很有保證。
仍然是，冠軍。 我離開時關係很好。
我以為你討厭 那裡的人。
不，不，我討厭政治， 不是人民。
我喜歡當教授 空間政策研究所。
我不關心他們的政治 圍繞他們的政策。
我比較喜歡科學 高效率完成。
這對我有什麼幫助？
我還是朋友 與所有聰明人。
結合你的 剩下的就應該照做。
另外，現在我們有辦法了 有更多時間露營。
我們有嗎？
因為我們沒有得到 到那個露營地至少
又三個小時。
而你還得進去 並抓住那些文件。
我會很快。
嘿，小指發誓。
等下，我要跟你一起去。
什麼？ 我得撒尿。
啊。
嘿。 我們在車上等一下，好嗎？
-你還記得密碼，對吧？ -我當然知道。
我衹是確定一下。
它必須在這裡。
啊... 哇！
我感覺好多了。
我衹需要兩個文件， 然後我們就走了。
我可以讓自己忙起來。
找到了。
本來可以等到週二。
沒有其他人在工作 直到那時。
決不。你將會成為 除了凝視什麼都不做
在廣闊的夜空中。
還有什麼更好的時間來證實 我們的新發現？
爸爸，看這個。
也許衹是一些東西 鏡頭上。
不，正在進步 與每個圖像。
過來，看一下。
滑過去。
它是什麼？
我從未見過任何太空垃圾 或是像這樣的太空船，
至少你已經 之前給我看過。
你認為這個 有事可做
隨著快速爆發 異常訊號
去年你撿到的？
我的意思是，它來了 從同一個方向。
-盧比肯號訊號？ -是的。
我不知道什麼 我們正在看，
但也許我能想到 出軌跡。
嘿，這可能衹是私人的 部門，甚至可能是軍事部門。
你知道，我們並不總是 公開他們的建築，
尤其是 國際的。
我們通常會被告知 的發佈日期。
德夫林博士，這是莫羅博士 在馬裡蘭州天文臺。
我們可能發現了 UAP 目擊事件 軍事或私人，
但我什麼也沒看到 在時間表上。
是的，發送圖片 現在的座標。
亞當，去外面等。
但我想聽。
去。計劃改變。 回農家去吧。
-我一會兒就出去。 -但我是發現它的人。
去。現在。
是的，我還在這裡。
當然。
第一次目擊是在零八一三。
謝謝你，莫羅醫師。 我們會保持聯繫。
打電話給我 與麥考伊總統
或 SECDEF Greer，現在。
主席先生、先生， 我剛確認了UAP
與美國宇航局的凱特•德夫林博士。
你確定這不僅僅是 一顆失敗的衛星
那是脫離軌道了嗎？
不，先生。看來是 一個近乎完美的球體。
無已知配置 匹配這個。
俄羅斯和中國 否認參與。
他們也在看著它。
軌跡是什麼？
美國太空總署和我們的軍隊 直接放置
前往東海岸，先生， 紐約市附近。
好的。好吧，讓我們把 國民警衛隊待命。
我們將在以下地點提供庇護所 距離曼哈頓的地方
圍繞一個區域。
- 應該可以。 -會的，先生。
我也會轉移 AWAC 攔截監視器。
不，艾什。我想要很多 的眼球。
麥考伊總統拯救世界。
収到，先生。
餵，隊長？
是的，放置所有載體 罷工團體處於戒備狀態。
大家都夠了 科學地得出。
我們現在可以去玩嗎？
等你聽到 我們發現了什麼。
更重要的是 比露營？
嘿，我眞的很抱歉，親愛的，
但我們必須跟進 關於我們發現的東西。
我找到了。
是的，冠軍。 你發現了。
該死。
不應該放棄二五零。
決不。 電動車一路走來。
你做了正確的選擇，爸爸。
這有什麼問題嗎？
我做錯了什麼？
哇哦。我們被擊垮了，我們有 不知道如何解決它。
-對吧，爸爸？ -嘿，嘿，我們可以解決這個問題。
看？
告訴過你了。
好的。
安全帶。
總統先生。
尺寸是原來的一半 首都圓形大廳。
估計是 直徑卌英尺。
它衹是坐在那裡？
是的。
嗯，先生，這個 是我們的科學顧問，
格蕾絲•惠特尼博士。
謝謝你，秘書。
沒有可檢測到的 UAP 中的活動
自從它到來以來。 這是一個異常現像。
為什麼會出現異常呢？
主席先生， 這是一個完美的球體。
這不自然， 除了晶洞
那些會破碎的 就像玻璃受到衝擊一樣。
結合事實 沒有代理機構，
軍事情報， 或科學界
相信這是 陸地起源的。
好吧，我們知道它不是什麼。 但它是什麼？
不，我們不能忽視 可能性
一個外星人的 敵對威脅。
我們需要迅速評估 情況，先生。
同意。
我們有一個調查小組 馬上就在地上了。
醫生，科學家 最初發現異常情況，
你有嗎 他的背景？
是的，先生。
傑夫•莫羅博士， 鰥夫，兩個孩子，
他是一位天文物理學家 擁有加州理工學院博士學位，
專攻天體生物學。
他在那個太空政策 就在幾個月前。
他發現 快速無線電異常，
他所暱稱的那個 盧比肯信號。
你去年見過他。
是的，你解雇了 那麼他的理論。
他認為這是一個 嘗試溝通。
第一次接觸。
這就是為什麼他命名為 他就是這麼做的。
我們的整個宇宙將會改變 如果這是外星人的話。
也沒有科學界 曾經證實過這一點。
這是無線電訊號 由氫氣排放。
不尋常，是的，但不是 完全聞所未聞。
事實上，最有可能的是 有些人說
它將是一顆中子星 在最後的死亡投擲中。
或是巨型金屬的前身 球從天上掉下來。
他顯然知道他的事。 他不害怕開口說話。
如果我們有 當時聽他的話
我們會處於更好的狀態 現在的位置。
我希望他加入球隊。
是的，先生。
先生，我們必須考慮 這裡潛在的危險。
我建議全面動員。
阿什，我明白了 你的關心，
但我們之前需要更多答案 我們開始用槍指著它。
沒有答案。
我告訴他事情很緊急 並回電給我。
我們沒有時間做這件事。 讓他們派一架直昇機。
先生，一定有 有空的人
與類似或 更好的資質。
也許吧，但顯然，莫羅已經 他們沒有的清晰度。
我們現在就需要它。
格蕾絲，我希望你能協調一下 軍方和美國宇航局。
阿什，你必須做 確保我們的部隊
為任何情況做好準備。
是的，先生。
眞的嗎，亞當？ 一整盒牛肉乾？
當外星人襲擊時， 你會感謝我的。
爸爸，這不是 眞的是外星人吧？
你們孩子為什麼不進去 做點午餐，好嗎？
我就到這裡結束吧。
爸爸，現在才九點卅分。
我知道你什麼時候 迴避一個問題。
進屋去了。
爸爸，怎麼了？
我不知道。 你留在這裡。
莫羅博士？
是的，我是莫羅博士。
賈菲船長， 派崔克太空軍基地。
孩子們，嘿，回到車上。
這是關於那個點嗎 我在天文臺發現的？
亞當...
嗯，我兒子說得對嗎？
我有訂單來自 麥考伊總統
帶您直達紐約。
飛我？ 不，這是...
對不起，隊長，我不能。 我正在和我的孩子們一起度假。
等下，為什麼是紐約？
你發現的那個物體？
它坐落在東河邊。
等下，但如果它落地了…
我的意思是，你們有團隊 去挖掘那個。
那你沒挖過嗎？
怎麼還沒挖？
你是什麼... 你需要我做什麼？
我會在空中向你解釋。 我們走吧。
Leanne，是你的手機 電話還能用嗎？
不。
我們的車失去了動力。
然後，突然， 我們的手機沒電了，
車子回來了，但是…
也許無論紐約有什麼，
擊中我們的一顆衛星 進入了我們的軌道。
這是怎麼回事？
好的，我這就去。
但在一種條件下。
去哪裡？
你留下一個頻率 和我的孩子們一起調製収音機。
你知道嗎，老式的那種？
這樣我就可以保持不變 與他們的溝通，
特別是如果另一個 衛星墜落。
爸爸，你要去哪裡？
我去買一個。
我必須去紐約。
我要去。
不，你要留在這裡 和妹妹一起，好嗎？
如果這是關於那個點 我們在天文臺發現，
那我就是找到它的人。
莉安、亞當、 賈菲船長將會
用収音機給你設定。
我們將始終如一 溝通。
希望能回來 今晚之前，好嗎？
這一切都設定好了。
您所需要做的就是為其供電 打開，按下按鈕，
你可以和你爸爸談談 在直昇機中。
我們現在可以走了嗎？
這很糟糕，你知道的。
我知道。對不起。
我愛你們。
-我也愛你。 -好的。
我今晚就回來，好嗎？ 我保證。
保持安全。
我想我們不能 開車去那裡，對嗎？
士兵起來，博士。
孩子們正在觀看。
你將保存 他們的世界。
我們走吧。
爸爸討厭坐飛機。
它一定非常重要。
現在，我們已經建立了堅實的 東河週邊
並疏散了媒體 以及任何平民。
同時， 我們已經部署了
無人偵察機 異常周圍。
但一直沒有活動 從對像？
我們的偵察隊有 報告沒有變化。
它衹是坐在那裡。
沒有任何反應。 沒有訊號，沒有光？
這是什麼，一艘船和 機組人員因撞擊而死亡？
或者他們處於過度睡眠狀態？ 或者...
或者更糟的是，他們是 準備好進攻了嗎？
我們希望所有好問題 莫羅博士可以幫我們解答。
莫羅的現況如何？
賓州上空的某個地方。
莫羅博士正在路上 與賈菲船長。
他們應該很快就會到了。
但直到他們到達之前， 正如格里爾國務卿所提到的，
我們已經部署了 監視無人機。
國民警衛隊是 疏散曼哈頓
及週邊行政區。
我們不能允許這種情況發生 變成馬戲團。
無論， 這需要時間。
紐約人不會 被告知要做什麼。
這是個好主意 不過開始吧。
謝謝您，先生。
我們也達到了 向主要盟友伸出援手
並正在分享一點 我們擁有的訊息，
以及協調 因應策略。
我們是唯一的國家嗎 與UAP？
到目前為止，已經有 無指示
其他地方的類似工藝。
我想這是一件好事。
好吧，先生們。 請隨時通知我。
所以你告訴我 NASA 總統團隊
認為盧比孔河訊號 跟這個UAP有關係嗎？
嗯嗯。
-所以我兒子是對的？ -是的。
你的預測是對的 某種溝通。
現在我們希望你能 想辦法
與它溝通。
等下，他們認為有嗎？ 船上有生命體嗎？
這是另一個原因 你來了，博士。
你是一位外星生物學家。
你尋找任何生命， 我尋找任何麻煩。
這是一個完美的團隊合作。
這是給你的，博士。
你好？
嘿，爸爸。
你讓収音機開始工作了。
爸爸，我們正在看新聞 關於紐約的那個領域。
那不是你要去的地方嗎？
爸爸，他們不知道那是什麼。
我認為你不安全。
聽著，你待在裡面，好嗎？
嫑離開，除非你 直接聽我說
或是賈菲船長，好嗎？
好吧，小心點。
愛你。
莉安？
莉安，我聽不見你說話，親愛的。 蜂蜜？
我不認為有 無論如何我都能得到你
將我的孩子空運到 西海岸？
如果眞到了這個地步， 我們可以看我們的選擇。
聽著，博士。
我的家人住在賓州 靠近俄亥俄州邊境。
這裡並不完全是西海岸
但如果我們需要 立即做某事，
我們可以確保一切順利 打電話了，好嗎？
照顧好你的家人。
謝謝你，船長。
我們正處於未知領域。
是的，這就是為什麼 總統希望我們
収集資訊 在這件事上，
尤其是當 它仍然一動也不動。
哦... 這讓我想起了。
關於無人機你了解多少？
我的意思是，有一點。
我買了一件給我兒子。
我玩那個東西 比他多。
嗯，那很好。
我們需要啟動 一些在球體上。
我需要你閱讀並 在飛行時収集資訊。
你認為你能應付嗎？
好的。
你還好嗎，牛仔？
賈菲船長， 你在哪裡？
預計到達時間，三分鐘，先生。
你有所有的嗎 你需要的設備？
我們正在準備無人機 協議已到位
先生，惠特尼博士所著。
設定設備在哪裡？
後面是一臺筆記型電腦。
你可以接受嗎？
你還好嗎，博士？
好的...
我們需要得到 感測器讀數
在我們使用任何之前 破壞力越大的裝備。
好的，你開始吧。
我要確定一下 我們在其他地方都很好。
収到。
總統先生，我們有 所有設備
博士要求的。
光譜分析儀， 紅外線攝影機，
聲波無人機，紅色，綠色， 和紫外線雷射。
好的。
先生們，待命。
NASA尚未發現任何證據 進一步的車輛異常。
-然而。 -然而。
這可能是唯一的一個
但他們會繼續 掃描直到
我們給他們解除了警報。
我們希望如此。
情況報告？
異常是否會發生反應 以敵對的方式，
我們準備遏制 或毀掉它。
摧毀它？
我們會做好準備， 總統先生。
我們有三叉戟 潛艇在港口。
所有魚雷均已完全 鎖定並載入。
我們有十人全副武裝 黑鷹近在咫尺。
戰車方陣 和移動大砲
將駐紮在近海。
五架 F-三五將在空中盤旋 在兩萬英尺處。我們準備好了。
這對於即時來說很好 地區，但是城市呢？
曼哈頓呢？
國民警衛隊正在監視 EVAC 出城，
他們正在盡最大努力 維持秩序，先生。
主席先生， 你同意嗎
採取足夠的預防措施 是否適合此操作？
我同意。
賈菲船長做到了 你複製所有這些嗎？
我做到了，先生。
繼續。
響亮清晰。
現在接近異常， 先生。
我們要進去了
先生們， 失陪了。
-你好嗎？ -嗯嗯。
FLIR 攝影機可運作。
FLIR 攝影機？
前瞻性 紅外線攝影機。
他們看到熱量。
他們工作得很好 在煙霧或灰塵中。
基本上是黃銅 正在看到一切
我們現在就看到了。
好的。
我們去打個招呼吧。
被動掃描已完成。
UAP 沒有任何反應。
遙測讀數是 全線持平。
沒有額外的熱量。
寒冷、任何形式的輻射。
就好像它根本不存在一樣。
但我們可以這樣看 我們知道它反射光。
這讓我想看 雷射可以對它做什麼。
我們應該繼續前進 到物理測試。
這是物理測試。
哦！
總統先生，您看到了嗎？
我們都這麼做了。 UAP 是敵對的。
巴爾加斯將軍， 派出黑鷹隊。
從事。
先生，有機會 這衹是也許
對什麼做出反應——
隊長，你可能想要 讓路。
収到，先生。 我正在做。
彈片！
我們中招了！穩住！
我們遺失了 Jaffe 的 FLIR 攝影機訊號。
給我一張照片，人們。
就這樣吧，先生。
主席先生， 它再次襲擊了我們。
將軍，見鬼去吧。
各方力量，授權 阿爾法-布拉沃-五-五。
隨意開火！
那張照片在哪裡？
先生，網路癱瘓了。 我正在努力。
賈菲船長，你報告了嗎？
週司令，聽到了嗎？
有人給我一些 現在的目光都集中在這一點上。
你好？報告。
噢，來吧。
我們能得到衛星嗎 紐約的形像？
我們這裡是瞎子。
-所有部隊，狀態報告。 -週指揮官，西特雷普。
有人聽得到我們說話嗎？
賈菲船長，報告。
我們有溝通。
先生，FLIR 攝影機遺失了。
敵人交戰並且...
擊敗了我們 整個防線。
上校，你多久可以 讓他們飛到空中？
好的。做吧。
細節，士兵， 我們失去了視覺效果。
先生，它擠出了武器
並指揮火力 能量向我們襲來。
我們的盔甲和武器衹是 對它完全無效。
隊長，你就位了嗎？ 觀察和報告
關於敵人的活動？
是的，先生。
我們將保持航班狀態。
我們有四分之三 剩下的燃油箱需要保存。
保持開放的無線電頻道。
你是我們的眼睛和耳朵 直到我們重新站起來。
我們正在爭奪十隻猛禽 來自麥奎爾。
他們還有十分鐘左右就到了。
很高興看到一些 回報，先生。
讓我們抓住這個王八蛋。
艾什，我們需要更多戰士 來自更遠的基地。
-使其發生。 -是的，先生。
我的視覺效果到底在哪裡？
我們正在努力，先生。
謝謝。 我們很感激。
是的。 確認。
賈菲船長，是 你還和我們在一起嗎？
先生，UAP已撤回 它的武器
它正在走向 城市。
我們相信它正在試圖避免 我們的反擊
隱藏在其中 民用建築。
我不認為這是 它的計劃，先生。
它穿過建築物 就像他們用紙板做的一樣。
問他們要去哪裡。
你知道在哪裡嗎 球體的方向是？
我們不知道它的 預定的目的地。
它向內陸進發 在一條直線上，
無視所有障礙。
就往右走 透過他們，先生。
隊長，聽我說。
保護自己， 但我們必須知道
那該死的東西在哪裡 是頭，你懂嗎？
明白了。収到。
總統先生，聲音響亮而清晰。
這件事很清楚 前往某個地方。
並沒有出現任何偏差 無論如何，它的路徑。
球體是否在發射 任何種類的軍械？
不需要。
衹要正確駕駛即可 透過一切。
將軍，我們打電話給市長吧 讓他有問題
就地避難令 為了全體人民
誰沒有離開，何時 我們之前告訴過他們。
現在離開就像 走進死亡陷阱。
是的，先生。
我們將啟動 民防網絡。
所有的人 在街上
可以避難 在地鐵裡。
我們必須有 街道暢通無阻。
已經開始了，先生。
國民警衛隊部隊有 開始平民疏散
為沿線所有城市 東海岸。
我們告訴大家搬家 盡可能遠內陸。
好的。包括所有 鄰國
因為整個東海岸 現在是戰區。
是的，先生。
先生，我不想說話 不按順序，
但也許是時候了 向全國發表演說。
可能有一個 很多錯誤訊息
那裡正在發生。
博士。明天！
也許你應該傾向於 自己的事。
不，不，他是對的。
我們需要告訴人們 發生了什麼事。
他們就在這中間，
並且沒有得到 圍繞那個。
新聞臺有 遍地都是。
我需要向全國發表講話。
你要說什麼？
我要告訴 他們說的是實話。
這架直昇機好嗎 被彈片擊中後？
我們應該 跟隨球體？
我們需要著陸嗎？
我們很好，博士。 放鬆。
你處理好自己了 回來得很好
對於曾經的某人 害怕飛行。
並不是我害怕。
我...我衹知道 安全百分比。
當然。
沒關係，博士。
我的意思是，每個人都害怕 某事，對嗎？
你怕什麼？
我？
我是一名士兵。
我不被允許 害怕任何事。
我還是看到很多人 試圖出去。
疏散城市是 從來都不是一個快速的過程。
他們在開槍嗎 在球體上？
我們必須得到他們 離開那裡。
不，我們太遠了。 沒時間了。
我們有我們的命令。
他們從來沒有機會。
聽著，就這樣了 成為我們所有人。
如果我們不找出一個 阻止那件事的方法。
如何？它摧毀了一切 接近它。
我們觀察、我們報告、
我們聰明地工作， 我們發現了一個弱點。
如果有的話。
聽我說，博士。
這就是你的工作，就是找到 那件事的弱點。
它從哪裡來？
那是什麼東西？
隊長，清理那個區域。
我有十隻猛禽 即將推出熱武器。
還有幾千個 那裡的人
試圖出去。
消極，將軍。
大量平民傷亡 如果你參與。重複....
大量平民傷亡 如果你參與。
中止！
您的電話，先生。
這是突擊隊隊長。 接近球體。
嫑攻擊。
先生...
我可能沒有太多 今天之後的遺產，
但這還不會結束。 中止。
猛禽指揮官， 中止罷工。
我再說一遍，中止罷工。
収到，將軍。 中斷攻擊。
Bravo Alpha十-十已確認。
先生，你意識到了 終有一天會到來
當你沒有這個選擇的時候。
而如果那一天到來的話
如果沒有選擇的話 我會打電話的。
謝謝您，先生。
我會向天祈禱 但事實並非如此。
你看到了嗎？
它放慢了速度 第一次。
好吧，就是這樣。
但這是好還是壞呢？
我不知道。 我不知道它是否變慢了
因為牠喜歡電 或者如果它不喜歡它。
無論哪種方式，我們都需要 不過，還是要找出答案。
巴爾加斯將軍...
我們一聽，就停了。
讓我們試著靠近一點 吸引其註意。
現在就提供我們更多情報。
収到，先生。 會做。
我要打電話給我的孩子們 在我們靠得太近之前。
是的。
UAP 是 繼續往內陸移動。
破壞程度 其後果令人震驚。
在這裡，你可以看到軍事 直昇機向其開火，
但似乎很少 或對 UAP 沒有影響。
似乎有某種 盾牌...
爸爸？你在哪裡？
你看到那些爆炸了嗎 新聞？
發生了什麼事？
找亞當。
他在這裡。
爸爸？ 你還好嗎？
我還在直昇機上。
聽...
電話還能用嗎？
是的。
好的，很好 那很好。
一切也許都會回來。
聽著，我想要你 裝載汽車。
収拾好裝水的箱子。
食物、電池充電器 這臺収音機...
所有這一切。
我們要走了嗎？ 我以為你說要留下來
不，我知道。
我知道，但我衹是 希望你做好準備。
你明白了嗎？
我們這裡不安全嗎？ 你告訴我們要留在這裡。
是的，但是我...
做好一切準備。
準備好車。
聽著，親愛的，我得走了。
我愛你們。
我稍後再回來查看。
這很奇怪，對吧？
我會打包食物， 你照顧水嗎？
是的。
你有孩子嗎？
是的，我有。
對不起。 我並沒有想窺探的意思。
是的。
嘿嘿 能低到什麼程度 我們得到這個東西了嗎？
我想看另一邊
看有什麼 電力對它造成了影響。
我不想靠得那麼近
它會看到我們 作為威脅，但是…
讓我看我能做什麼，博士。
他們從哪裡來？ 他們不應該在這裡。
民用直昇機、 立即離開該地區。
你有危險。 重複。
他們太近了。 他們太近了。
旋翼機！
振作起來，博士！
我們要下去了！
穩住！
阿列克謝•布里亞科夫總統閣下 已發起呼叫
在莫斯科-華盛頓線上。
忠誠度檢查已確認？
已確認、已審核 先生，安全。
我們還有一個緊急請求 總書記的來信
中國人的 軍委。
嗯，這可能是 提供援助
或者衹是情況更新。
無論如何，我都會採取 我暫時離開。
先生有什麼吩咐嗎？
常規命令。
繼續營運 目前我已經成立了。
是的，先生。
給我特羅威爾將軍 就行了。
-等下，我的裝備！ -別管它，博士，我們走吧！
冷靜，士兵！
你們是最幸運的 我見過的混蛋
因為那件事，
那東西剛拿出來 其餘的新聞直昇機
就在你們都倒下之後。
還有更多嗎？
私密，你在哪裡 指揮官？
我就是，先生。
對此我很抱歉。
我們正在確保一個 突然疏散時
那個該死的保齡球被破壞了 我們的位置在幾秒鐘內。
你有衛星電話嗎？
不，先生。
我本來希望也許 你們可能...
等下，有一個 在直昇機上。
不，博士，等下，不！
博士，你還好嗎？
堅持住，士兵，堅持住。
哦！
我沒事。
哦！哦！
冷靜。
該死！
冷靜……
-我的天啊。 -博士，你被擊中了嗎？
不，我沒事。
好的。
現在應該是這樣。 止血。
隊長，你的背心。
好吧，我猜他是對的。
我想我們是幸運兒。
他怎麼樣？
他現在一切都好
但我們得買一些 眞正的醫療關註。
這款手機完蛋了。
你的電話在哪裡？
好的...
快點。
我們開始吧。 我們開始吧。
好的。
等下，你不 知道密碼。
不需要一個。
您可以從任何地方撥打九一一 手機，即使已鎖定。
一旦我找到接線員， 我們就可以出發了。
希望手機訊號塔 還起來。
別擔心，博士。
我會讓我們乘坐直昇機返回 華盛頓盡快。
先生們，歡迎光臨 飛往華盛頓特區
麥考伊總統是 暫時從事
在這個國家的事務中。
放心吧，船長。
-謝謝你，先生。 -這意味著什麼？
這意味著當世界領導人 打電話詢問問題
關於我們的情況， 他必須是回答的人。
明白了。
嗯...我們向誰報告？
你正在和他說話。
國防部長 阿什•格里爾。
莫羅博士，賈菲船長，
我們很感激第一手資料 你提供的情報。
謝謝您，先生。
希望有什麼東西 你可以使用。
事實上，一架新聞直昇機做到了。
眞的嗎？
他們捕捉了一個瞬間 在它被擊落之前。
好吧，讓我們看一下。
莫羅博士，我們即將 成為一項重大行動。
這是我們可以討論的事情 在下一次攻擊之後，
如果有必要的話。
球體現在哪裡？
即將進入上海灣， 就在澤西海岸以北。
我們有四個的地方 海軍驅逐艦
等它清除 民用像限。
而一旦進入水中，
它將受到 機身採用十吋砲彈，
以及同時進行的 飛彈空中打擊
來自十架 F-二二猛禽。
我們有一組坦克 在澤西島一側
以防止其出口 來自海灣。
長官，常規武器不行 似乎不利於它
它衹會摧毀一切 被視為威脅。
沒有什麼比嘗試更好的了 但失敗了，莫羅博士。
螢幕上的衛星成像。
秘書先生？
矛頭，利爪。 你沒有武器。
隨意開火。
這是先鋒， 大聲清楚地讀出你的意思。
開始射擊，長官。
將軍，西特雷普。
攻擊出現 去工作，先生。
球體的速度減慢了。
它可能正在適應。
油罐車們，停下來！ 嫑參與！
我再說一遍，嫑參與！ 各部隊撤退！
嫑參與！ 趕緊離開那裡！
分析。我們剛失去了一個 很多好人。
我需要知道為什麼。
它改變了戰術。
連它都沒用過 它的光束武器。
完全沒有。
它用了我們自己的飛彈 並利用它們來對付我們。
他們要麼衹是測試過 第一次使用戰術，
或者他們衹是想要我們 知道他們能做到。
無論哪種方式...
將軍，我們是什麼 在這裡打交道？
我不知道。
但我們需要找出答案。
所以這就是錄影帶 來自新聞直昇機？
是的。
這是最後一個鏡頭 新聞直昇機送回。
那裡。 這就是它暫停的地方。
你看電力如何 圍繞球體流動？
我們親眼目睹了這一點。
就像電一樣 正把它放在那裡。
或者它選擇留在那裡。
嗯嗯，嗯嗯。 你知道如何嗎
球體上的漣漪效應 就在之前
它深入 發電站？
我們看到了同樣的效果 被十吋炮擊中。
是的，但我們沒看到 那種連鎖反應
當無人機指向 雷射照射它。
不，第一束光束是 相當於貓玩具。
本質上是無害的
但我相信這可能是 解釋為敵對行為。
那麼，發生了什麼事 博士，在這裡嗎？
你是博士，對嗎？
這就是它嗎， 還是他們？
它是一臺機器嗎 我們必須打破，
或者是某種外星人 我們需要殺死的士兵？
老實說我不知道，先生，但是 我不確定這有什麼關係。
這對我很重要。
好吧，如果有 船上的生命體，
他們受到很好的保護。
如果它類似於無人機
那麼它就會 繼續做它所做的事情
直到電量耗盡。
我們發現了 為了我們自己，莫羅博士。
總統先生。
秘書先生， 請莫羅博士發言。
是的，先生。
我們的問題已經夠多了 沒有尊重的問題。
是的，先生。
是你的 討論富有成效嗎？
盡其所能 與世界領導人
誰有權訪問 到核子武器
並且更關心 關於我們缺乏進步的問題。
先生，我們感謝您的坦誠。
好消息是 他們提供了存取權限
對他們的軍隊和 大學科學系。
好的。這是很多額外的 腦力
和潛在火力 帶到餐桌上。
好吧，讓我們利用它。
你們各自的同行 很快就會連結到您。
謝謝您，先生。
我很期待，先生。
我們走吧。
惠特尼博士，美國太空總署有報告嗎 還有其他球體或物體嗎？
不，但他們有 所有可用的觀測站
和衛星 看著天空。
好的。
我相信我們應該跟進 根據這項觀察
那電或 電磁能
在發電站 影響了它。
我同意。但完全 關聯這些數據
會花費很多時間。
這是一件事 我們擁有的很少。
謝謝。
你不是唯一的人 讓科學家進行快速撥號。
我剛収到一個 替代計劃
來自 CERN 的認為 日內瓦的坦克車。
歐洲核子研究中心？
歐洲理事會 用於核子研究？
不，他們運行對撞機。
他們運行最大的粒子 世界物理實驗室。
他們獨家經營 擁有尖端技術。
是的，確實如此，先生，但是…
-先生。明天。 -博士。
莫羅博士。
他們有一個可行的計劃。 你？
不。
目前還沒有，但那是 為什麼我們需要更多時間
來分析數據。
CERN 分析了數據，
他們有一個提議 我們現在就可以實施。
博士，請坐。
國務卿先生，請繼續。
謝謝。
我剛収到 確認我的同事
CERN 設計了 徹底的罷工。
為什麼我們衹是 現在聽說這個了嗎？
他們正在工作 計算一下，先生，
你可以 感謝博士。
無論如何，他們直接填補了 液態氮有效載荷
會凍結至少一部份球體
在它有一個之前 攻擊的機會，
於是 重複直接命中
應該像打開它一樣 一個蛋殼。
是的，這就像放一個 液態氮中的橡膠球。
丟掉它會碎 像玻璃一樣。
你覺得怎麼樣，莫羅博士？
我的意思是，這是 技術上可行，但是...
但你到底要怎麼走 給它加液態氮嗎？
你要掉下來嗎 它是從樹上來的嗎？
一般那樣？
西科斯基國王騭 可輕鬆攜帶油輪
充滿液態氮。
是的，還有疣豬 A-十 具有精密準確度
把那東西砸過去 一遍又一遍，
直到他們完成工作。
給我找八十七號的瓦特上校 空軍基地聯隊在隊列中。
先生，你需要有人
操作雷射照射該目標並 指導那些砲手。
你已經做得夠多了，士兵。
你知道那是 從來沒有答案，先生。
照顧好 你自己，船長。
我會盡力的，先生。
我可以衹是聲音嗎 並指出理由
我們不知道是什麼 即將溢出
那個復活節彩蛋 當你把它打開時？
這就是為什麼我們需要一個 訓練有素的現場觀察員。
謝謝你 志願服務，博士。
志工服務？
是的，來吧，博士。
現在嫑解散團隊。
讓我們這樣做吧。
我們走吧。
好技巧。
我很高興他們是 能夠撤離。
我也是。
如果我們指向另一個 雷射照射球體，
我們需要確保 我們不會錯過。
為什麼？
我們必須保持精確 在冰層上
由液態氮形成， 不是球體的表面。
如果我們這樣做，可能會...
它可能會註意到我們。
我讓我們保持距離 這似乎是安全的，博士。
我們保持至少皕英尺的距離， 它無視我們。
好的。好的。
我信任你。
我會穩住這隻鳥。 你盡自己的一份心力。
冰、槍、碎。
豬被鎖了 在橫樑上。
這很快就會結束。 相信我。
你知道嗎 我不明白？
它要去哪裡？
為什麼去那裡這麼慢？
就好像這樣...
就像他們 希望我們向它開槍。
你看，我沒有 有問題嗎，博士。
這東西已經殺了 數千人。
需要停止， 狠狠放下，現在。
這件事剛才沒有意義。
看吧，沒必要。 它衹需要死掉即可。
錘子，這是一個天空手錶。 我們已就位。
放下有效負載。
請工作。
快點。
——是的，直接擊中！ -是的！
雷射瞄準目標，博士。
就在那裡，球體的頂部。
突擊隊，目標被點燃。 趕緊把這個混蛋趕出去。
該死！
冰塊已經崩解，但是…
球體看起來沒有損壞。
但它沒有動。
也許是受到了影響。
好的。我去打電話 讓他們再跑一次。
等下，堅持，稍等。 嫑開火。
看。那裡。 在底部。
它開始泛起漣漪。
就像以前一樣 最後的攻擊。
好的。我要退到 給疣豬許可。
取消第二波！
我們現在都需要撤離。
中止！中止！
穩住！
現在就把這個東西降落。
我們是唯一的另一個 天空中的目標。
打得好，博士。 穩住！
哇哇哇！
哦，我要生病了！
収起來吧，博士。 在外面做。
我們坐了很長一段路才回來。
啊...
麥奎爾，這是天空觀察。
操作 徹底失敗了。
重複一遍，徹底失敗。
返回基地。
該死！
球體現在正在發射光束 並摧毀發電站。
有部份 新澤西州停電了。
球體改變航向了嗎？
不，在同一課程中， 向南穿過新澤西州。
但電力 內的車站
廿英里半徑是 爆炸了。
它正在削弱我們的 基礎設施。
我們需要其他選擇。
這該死的金屬球 不能不透水
我們擁有的一切。
要麼偏轉 或被擊敗
每一件常規武器 我們已經扔給它了。
加拿大皇家空軍 正在調度
一支CE-一四五C中隊 警戒飛機，
預計到達時間還有四小時。
讓更多的目光註視天空 是一件好事，
但我們需要更強大的火力。
還有其他人嗎 提供了什麼？
我們分享了所有情報 與科學界
以及所有國家的軍隊。
他們正在努力他們的 自己的數據分析。
他們都會幫忙 以他們自己的方式，
但他們都很擔心 他們可能是下一個，
所以他們不想畫畫 關註自己，
我不能說 我責怪他們。
歐洲核子研究中心正在工作 制定另一個計劃。
當莫羅博士回來時， 讓他融入自己
與所有這些 科學機構。
這不再是 衹是美國的問題。
是的，先生。
確保他可以訪問該內容 他一直在詢問的影片。
如果他正在做某事， 我們很快就會需要它。
現在正在組裝。
讓我們把影片髮上來吧 到衛星通訊室，
將副本發送至 JPL、NASA 與太空實驗室，
和任何其他扶手椅 莫羅信任的太空書呆子。
絕對可以，先生。
走吧，人們。 我們並不是生活在眞空中。
讓我們來看這一點。
賈菲船長現在在哪裡？
他應該著陸了 現在在麥奎爾。
好吧，博士。
即將到達基地。
感謝老天。
我們要下船了
我永遠不會再回來了 再次出現這樣的事情之一。
事實是， 我曾經做過更糟糕的事情
所以你需要 走開吧，博士。
我們有更大的問題 去處理。
你是對的，船長。 我……對不起。
看你。 開始對你產生影響。
讓你成為一名士兵吧。
我得去登記一下。 我們走吧。
隊長我知道 我們失去了很多人。
我知道我們錯過了什麼。
我缺少一些東西。
餵，別下去 那條路，博士。
NASA 和 CERN 還沒有 想出了一個辦法
阻止那該死的事情。
嫑這樣對自己。
你知道我保留什麼 回到？
我一直在想這個 發電廠發生的事件。
我的意思是，你看到了，對吧？ 它停止是有原因的。
是的。
衹是，我衹需要 找出原因。
好的。
你需要什麼？
我需要看全部 可用的數據。
等下，我們有權限嗎 到這裡的那個鏡頭？
是的，我能拿到。
好的。
我也需要談談 緻美國太空總署的德夫林博士。
好的，有電話 在辦公室裡。快點。
就這樣吧。
我會回來的。
德夫林在這裡。
博士。德夫林，我是莫羅博士。
你們機構檢測到了嗎 軌道上還有其他球體嗎？
不。
那麼，還有其他人嗎？
歐空局？俄羅斯宇宙？
不，沒有人報告任何事情。
你能回頭嗎
並給出一個估計 在它的原點上？
已經在上面了。
我們偵測到微弱的 輻射軌跡
我們一直在回溯。
嗯，它在哪裡 導致回到？
深空。
傑夫，你，嗯...
你的快速電波爆發理論。
你的盧比肯號訊號。
我們說這是一個 隨機爆發的噪音。
你說這是一個 嘗試第一次接觸。
好吧，這並不...
我們已經得出了來源 輻射軌跡的
和 FRB 有 同一原點。
哦。
堅持住，傑夫，我們可能有 給你的東西。
不。
不？ 不，什麼？
莫羅博士， 你的 FRB 是一個警告。
我們發現了更多的球體。
它們在我們的太陽系 系統靠近木星。
莫羅博士我們可能...
世界末日的情況 在我們手上。
十個球體位於 木星周圍。
你在開玩笑吧？
NASA追蹤起源 第一個球體的。
這是相同的確切位置 莫羅博士的快速無線電爆發。
盧比肯信號。
他說的是 地外通訊。
原點 引導我們找到這些。
還有十個球體。
準備進攻 請稍候。
耶穌，我們正在掙扎 與一個。
先生，我們需要 提醒我們的盟友。
非常抱歉，先生， 但還有更多。
我在這裡看什麼？
除了十個領域之外，
莫羅博士和德夫林博士 相信這實際上是
一支艦隊。
外星飛船準備就緒 完成工作。
這已經被驗證了嗎？
這是相同的確切位置 作為莫羅博士的 FRB。
這沒有任何意義。
為什麼 ET 會給我們一個路線圖 他們藏在哪裡？
嗯，我們不認為 他們就是這麼做的。
我們認為最後一個星球 他們摧毀了
對我們來說是一個警告。
那裡的邏輯有點跳躍。
可能吧。
但美國太空總署正在重新調整目標 哈伯和詹姆斯•韋伯，
所以我們很快就會知道。
這是一個 外星艦隊。
這是最 邏輯結論
鑑於現有數據，先生。
現在，這支艦隊正在路上嗎？
我們不知道，但美國太空總署 就在我們說話的時候正在檢查。
如果他們開始前進…
我們認為他們會去 派遣十艘船
首先靠近木星。
我的意思是，它可能衹是 更多的無人機。
但我想我們 不應該排除
就像第一次一樣 一波外星士兵。
不管如何，總統先生，
謹慎的做法是 假設
我們正面臨著 迫在眉睫的敵對入侵。
找我賈菲船長 莫羅博士按了喇叭。
快點。
給我打補丁 賈菲船長。
好吧，我們走吧。
這是賈菲船長。
賈菲船長，你有嗎？ 莫羅博士和你在一起嗎？
是的，先生。
這是總統。
先生，我可以把你 在免持電話上？
拜託。
莫羅博士，有嗎？ 進一步的細節
你可以給我提供 關於這支艦隊？
你似乎是唯一一個 誰有什麼想法
存在潛在的 那裡有什麼東西
三個月前。
我看到你說話了 惠特尼博士。
先生，在研究了這個領域之後，
我完全確信 它是一個探測器。
探針？
是的，正在収集 我們的數據，先生。
探索我們的防禦。
我不斷地問自己為什麼。
為什麼它移動得這麼慢？
就像它想要我們一樣 向它射擊。
我們一直都是這樣。
就像我們一樣 應該是的，先生。
每次我們攻擊它時，
它衹是傳遞我們的防禦 到其主力艦隊。
我們發現的單位 木星附近。
這才是眞正的入侵 強制。
他們會摧毀我們所有人。
是否透過 無人武器
或全副武裝的外星兵。
我們需要做好準備 為了這一切。
這是基於什麼？
這是經驗性，先生。
但德夫林博士認為 也是一種可能性。
但僅此而已。 這就是我所得到的。
還有其他人嗎？
總統先生，我同意 與德夫林博士
和莫羅博士。
我也是，先生。
這是一個基本的 軍事戰略。
它正在集結力量。
它正在派遣偵察兵 驗證
敵人的位置和力量。
就會變軟 它的目標
並在抵抗時入侵 已被淘汰。
這個球體現在哪裡？
就在外面 巴爾地摩，先生。
它在哪裡 系統定位
我們的電氣 變電站。
我在巴爾的摩有家人。
巴爾的摩全部 已被疏散。
東海岸的一半 是沒有電源的。
他們顯然已經 一直在研究我們
和我們的電網 非常詳細。
距離球體還有多久 在華盛頓嗎？
我們已經推論 這一切都基於它的運動
自從它到來以來。
你是怎麼想到的 出路？
好的。
我相信這很慢 步行到人民家，
哪個才是眞正的座位 這個國家的權力，
並且將會聚集 一路上的數據。
如你所說，莫羅博士。
兩小時零七分鐘 直到達到
正是這個位置，先生。
然後呢？
這將是對決。
賈菲船長，莫羅博士。
CERN 計劃失敗了。
我們需要你 區議會制定
新的攻擊計畫 如果你願意的話。
是的，先生。
海軍陸戰隊一號正在途中 來接你出去。
我知道。 我們必須盡快到達華盛頓。
我的房子可能就在直接 球體路徑的線。
我得去接我的孩子。
你告訴他們収拾行李 卡車並準備出發。
我相信他們可以 清理該區域。
你聽到那些傢夥的聲音了。
東海岸的一半 是沒有電源的。
好的。我將發送詳細信息 確保您孩子的安全
在去華盛頓的路上。
隊長，我得帶上我的孩子。
不，我們需要 到達華盛頓。
我將派遣士兵 去接回你的家人。
這還不夠好。
那些軍人都出去了 在那裡做陸軍的事情。
我需要保證 我的孩子們很安全。
好的。我去吧。
你進入那架直昇機 現在就到華盛頓。
我會帶你的孩子， 我發誓。
謝謝你，賈菲船長。
是肖恩。
謝謝你，肖恩。
已經臨近了 城郊，先生。
整個華盛頓特區都已被疏散。
所有非必要人員都有 已轉移到更安全的地方。
總統先生，我們應該 考慮搬家
也到一個安全的位置。
我同意，先生。
莫羅博士、賈菲船長 剛登記入住。
他要去接你的孩子了。
謝謝您，先生。 我非常感激。
-不客氣。 - 家庭第一。
這是我跑步的座右銘。
這就是為什麼我投票給你，先生。
德夫林博士報告說 艦隊還沒動，
也沒有十個球體 木星附近。
所以他們肯定在等 對於球體
到達首都。
先生，聯合特種作戰
已安排 實驗軌道炮
待部署 五小時內。
五小時？
他們已安裝 在我們的驅逐艦上。
就這麼過去了 卸下它們
並將他們飛到這個位置。
距離球體還有多久 到這裡了嗎？
一小時五十二分鐘，先生。
有沒有分行 軍隊
可以部署一些東西嗎？
不，先生。
沒有什麼不會傷害 我們受到的傷害與他們受到的傷害一樣多。
你必須給我一些東西。
任何事物。 一定有什麼東西。
你錯過了一些東西， 一般那樣。
先生，請給我十五分鐘。
我相信我可能有一些東西。
莉安，有東西要來了。
這是球體。 我們現在得走了。
這不是球體。
是爸爸！
亞當！
爸爸！爸爸！
穩住。 別靠得太近。
-我們得走了。 -爸爸在哪裡？
他正在做他的工作。 我的職責是確保你的安全。
移動。我們走吧。 快點。去！
我們走吧，孩子們。 快點。移動！
等下。 我們需要回去。
-我們留下了我們的東西。 -係好安全帶並抓住。
亞當，沒關係。
我們會買新東西。
應該是一趟有趣的旅程。
現在記住， 到目前為止，
球體犁過 十幾棟建築物
甚至沒有眨眼。
然後突然放慢速度 在一個發電站。
為什麼？
放電 來自變壓器。
是的。
為什麼在那裡？
因為這。
現在我花了很長時間 要註意到這一點，
但我們可能已經發現 一個潛在的弱點。
博士，我們在找什麼？
所以，第二幀。
有一個模糊 這裡失眞。
然後A幀就消失了。
現在很容易錯過 但事實是，
球體是尖銳的 直到這裡，
然後它變軟 在此刻，
就像它犁地一樣 穿過建築物。
這到底意味著什麼？
這意味著它有一個力場。
這就是衰減 光的
透過激烈的 磁場。
是的。那就是 臨界點。
不僅如此 有一個力場，
它沒有它 一直開著。
為什麼不呢？
我可以回答這個問題。
這是一個主要的電力消耗。
恰恰。
它需要一些東西 夠堅強，可以聳聳肩
你擁有的所有東西 一直在扔它。
但這需要 大量的能量。
所以我梳理了一下 所有可用的影片片段
我可以在每一個之間找到 與球體的相互作用。
手錶。
開，關。 開，關。
現在已經很微妙了 但它毫無疑問就在那裡。
清晰的交互 光子之間
和電磁場
夠強大來拉動 他們偏離了路線。
但為什麼沒有 我們以前見過這個嗎？
我們離得太遠了。
說實話太忙了 躲避爆炸。
好吧，我們不會有 完全抓住了它
如果你和賈菲船長
沒有冒著生命危險 報告襲擊事件。
那些新聞直昇機的鏡頭 捕獲是有幫助的。
先生，我相信我們可能有 一個可能的轉折點。
解釋一下，你得 解釋一下，博士。
長官，每次我們進攻時 這件事，
它打開它的力場。
任何時候衹要你願意 用推土機推平某物，
它打開它的力場。
我想也許... 或許...
當它很脆弱時 它的字段沒有打開。
那麼，紐約呢？ 你用雷射筆擊中它嗎？
不，你已經擁有你的一切 場上的攻擊性武器。
我所做的衹是按響門鈴 第一輪。
他是對的。
那個球體接合了每一塊 我們向它投擲的彈藥。
拿出我們的黑鷹， 我們的 F-三五，
我們的坦克，我們的機動火砲。
而且它一直在移動 內陸地區更多。
這一切的一切 要嘛是武器測試
或資產削弱者。
我們的電網基礎設施。
是的。
好吧，那我們該如何 使用這些知識？
好的，我們知道 意外激增
從發電廠 它大吃一驚。
它突然停了下來 在它轉動之前
場重新開始 並保護它。
所以它在以下情況下才有效 感知到威脅？
否則可以節省電力。
所以我們需要隔離它 並扔東西
它看不到並做好準備嗎？
我們也許能夠 突破它的防禦。
我們能為此投入什麼 我們還沒有嗎？
電磁場怎麼樣？
是的。
是的，我們自己的 電磁場。
我提到這一點是因為 白宮
有很多脈衝發生器
在其周圍的建築物中 如果發生未知的攻擊。
好吧，如果我們可以使用這些， 我們可能會設置一個陷阱。
找到我們所在的區域 可以用 EMF 脈衝轟擊它
並希望 我們措手不及。
削弱其屏蔽 並擾亂它。
你如何得到它 陷入陷阱？
誘餌是什麼？
這是簡單的部份，先生。
我們確切地知道它要去哪裡 以及它是如何到達那裡的。
說起來來去去， 我的孩子在哪裡？
惠特尼博士，有船長 簽到了嗎？
是的。船長有 帶了你的孩子
到他父母家 在賓州。
然後他們會 前往托比漢納陸軍基地。
謝謝。
好吧，指揮官 所有必要的資源
為了實施這個計劃， 秘書先生。
是的，先生。
我們一次做什麼 球體已經驚呆了？
炸毀它。
不，你什麼也沒碰過 與影響它。
我們不知道什麼會起作用。
我們沒有丟過 一切都還沒完成。
你在建議嗎 我們去核它嗎？
不，絕對不是。
我們需要將其隔離並拋出 我們剩下的一切。
簇狀，可燃， 化學的，無論什麼。
你如何隔離 一個漂浮的球？
我不知道，莫羅博士。 為什麼不告訴我？
足夠的。 我們需要想法，好嗎？
同時，讓我們努力工作吧 使該 EMF 到位。
掩體。
地下掩體 在白宮。
他們是不是... 我們可以參觀這裡嗎？
事情不是那樣的，莫羅博士。
好吧 但如果我們能找到一個 沿著球體的路徑放置
與 地下迷宮般的掩體，
然後我們就可以春天...
我沒有關註 你，博士。
好的。
聽著，我知道我不是這裡人
但我知道那裡 這裡有掩體。
參議員們聚集的地方 總統為了安全起見。
是嗎？
是的，有。
好的，我們找個地方 沿著球體的路徑，
然後我們打開一個， 創建一個洞，
然後我們轟炸它 隨著電磁場爆炸。
就落入這個 混凝土面積，
然後你，將軍， 你就去做吧。
你衹是用盡全力擊中它 你明白了，好嗎？
全場壓力機、廚房水槽、
整整九碼，一切，
你所得到的一切， 但沒有核武。
這就是你的計劃，是嗎？
是的。
好吧，讓我們 使這一切發生。
眞的嗎？
嘿嘿，好，壞， 這是唯一的計劃
我在這個房間裡聽到 現在。
你是對的，總統先生。
我們將調查該地區 立即最佳網站。
好的。你衹有 約八十分鐘。
讓拆除隊做好準備。
大約三個就可以了。
四個可以肯定。
一旦進去了， 我們將其隔離，
然後我們丟掉所有東西 我們做到了。
莫羅博士？
那個同時的 攻擊組合
與電磁場轟擊？
即使在戰鬥模式下， 我們可能還有機會。
但我們衹有幾秒鐘的時間
如果在它之前那麼多 放棄防禦。
我們應該搬到 放射性塵埃避難所
國會大廈下方。
我們在那裡會安全得多。
同意。
現在，大家走吧。
幹得好，莫羅博士。
來吧，移動它，士兵。
就在拉法葉廣場， 這是一個完美的地方。
實在是太接近了 到白宮。
它是直接路徑，所以我們 將會有足夠的空間。
好吧，看， 沒有人會錯過
安德魯傑克森的雕像， 所以來吧，把它炸掉。
我們的電動勢發生器 將被部署
這裡，這裡，這裡，還有這裡。
現在，球體正在移動 摧毀白宮。
我們要削弱球體 與 EMF 脈衝衝擊波
然後炸開一個彈坑
放下球體 進洞了，然後呢？
由 F-一五組成的中隊 蘭利和西莫爾•約翰遜
將瞄準球體 側繞飛彈。
但球體已經 轉向彈道飛彈
回到他們自己身上。
是的，先生。這就是為什麼我們 使用多重波浪，先生。
希望這個球體能夠 會被 EMF 場削弱。
我們的戰士將能夠 發射飛彈
然後撤退到安全距離。
註意！
是的，先生。
就像你一樣。
所以四個中隊組成 每架五架 F-一五
會攻擊，然後繞圈 回來進行第二次通行證嗎？
將會有連續的 子彈和砲彈的彈幕，
以及我們的地面部隊。
所以結合彈幕 EMF脈衝爆發
會削弱它並希望 燒力場？
這就是我們的希望，先生。
預計傷亡情況，將軍？
對於我們的地面部隊來說， 百分之八十，先生。
哦，天啊。
是的。
這是我們最後的立場，長官。
那條線上的每個男人和女人
明白會發生什麼 今天發生在這裡。
而他們都 出現値班。
好吧，讓我們做 確定這一天
這是我們所有人都可以感到自豪的一天
無論結果如何。
是的，先生。
歷史將會做出判斷。
現在，我們忽略了盧比孔河 當它第一次出現時發出信號。
但我們現在不會忽視它。
現在，球體在哪裡？ 我們多久可以準備出發？
是直達路線 為了首都，先生。
衹需點擊一下即可。
而且它不知道 我們在這裡。
我希望不會。
我還有一個問題 就是，為什麼是我們？
那麼，為什麼是華盛頓特區呢？
好吧，為什麼它不攻擊New 約克或洛杉磯，
倫敦、聖保羅？
為什麼不攻擊 主要人口中心？
這是在考驗我們。
它知道如果可以的話 帶我們去華盛頓，
那麼它可以採取 整個世界都為之傾倒。
博士，你不是嗎 確定這一切嗎？
不，先生。 不完全是。
但一定有一個理由
為什麼他們還沒有釋放 他們的全軍還沒有。
莫羅博士可能會在 總統先生。
他們可能正在嘗試 消除
他們最大的威脅 維護他們的統治地位。
先生，電磁場已就位。
謝謝。 是時候了。
開始了。
所有隊伍準備就緒。
凖備就緒 ，先生。
戰場是你的了，將軍。
拆除隊， 確認目標座標。
T減卅五秒。
-卅五秒。 -卅五秒。収到。
天空隊，陸上隊各一人。
十、九
八、七、六
五、四、三
二、一
攻擊。
洞裡著火。
正在蕩漾。
它正在分析攻擊。
讓它失去平衡。
繼續攻擊吧
增加 EMF 脈衝。 衹是讓它不知所措。
莫拉萊斯，把它放進洞裡。
它錯過了。 這意味著它正在發揮作用，對吧？
它錯過了。
它在洞裡。
炸毀這該死的東西！
隊長，報告狀態。
隊長，你聽到了嗎？
我們失去了視覺。 煙太多了。
我們得到了嗎？
觀察員，目標狀態。
否定，先生， 沒有視覺效果。
桑德斯，更新。
條例確認 並部署。
我們得到了嗎？
說不出來。
有光譜圖嗎？ 任何事物？
這該死的煙太多了。
擰緊它。再打一次。
所有部隊，恢復攻擊。 隨意開火。
黑鷹，電磁場開啟。 収斂於球體。
所有隊伍，危險都在逼近。 請格外小心。
任何事物？
還什麼都沒有，先生。
Com 線路三二已關閉。 四三下降。
隊長，你好。
一一三、二六四下降。
隊長，報告狀態。
那是什麼？
狀態報告，隊長。
有效嗎？ 這是否意味著我們贏了？
我們不知道。
你看到了它是如何被摧毀的 它周圍的一切。
那是最後的垂死掙扎 一個曾經強大的敵人。
那些勇敢的男人和女人 犧牲了自己的生命
看到它最終被摧毀 不會很快被遺忘。
在這一天，那個 會被寫成
作為新的篇章 美國歷史。
美國人所在的地方之一 展示了他們最擅長的事。
我們不向那些低頭 他們希望看到我們被毀滅。
你說得對，先生。
總統先生，我們的聯絡方式 在莫斯科
說他們正在得到 一些奇怪的讀數。
-先生。總統. -是的。
我収到一條來自 戰略防空，諾拉德。
十？
剛掉了十個球體 進入我們的大氣層？
這還遠遠沒有結束。 一切才剛開始。
他們怎麼這麼快就到了這裡？
他們不是在木星嗎？
沒關係。 他們已經來了。
那道紅色閃光就是這樣的。
他們正在呼叫支援。
一個燈塔。
我們現在做了什麼？ 我們幾乎無法處理一個。
好吧，艾什，你必須 按下喇叭
並提醒所有世界領導人 至少 EMF
可能會 擊暈球體。
是的，先生。我會有我的人 立即致電。
我們還有幾個選擇 在桌子上，先生。
好吧，讓我們來探索一下 首先是最不極端的。
我們將有時間 其他的稍後再說。
先生，我們開始拋球 對這件事用核武器
整個星球 將無法居住。
我們不投球 任何地方都可以使用核武器，好嗎？
我們不會投擲核武。
每一次傳遞我們的 EMF 策略 軍事力量是一個好的開始。
還不夠 地球上的電磁場。
先生，另一個球體 正在朝這邊走。
先生，我們應該撤離 趁還有時間。
不，不，沒辦法跑。 沒時間了。
無論如何我都不會離開。
但你們現在都該離開了。
沒有機會，先生。
我們有機會阻止它 當我們在這裡的時候，先生。
為了 整個星球，我...
我也留下來
好的。 我們現在做什麼？
嗯，大約六年前 在上屆政府中，
我們批准了一顆軌道衛星 向國際太空站運送彈藥。
你是告訴我我們有 軌道上的武器平臺？
這是違反 每一項國際太空條約
和協議，艾什。
明白了。
但我們有理由 懷疑俄羅斯人
我們已經在這樣做了。
什麼樣的武器 我們在談什麼？
飛彈? 核子武器?電磁場？
-雷射. -不是電磁場。
不。
但可以使用雷射 產生
內的電磁輻射 特定的波長頻率。
我們可能會很幸運。
好的。 那麼他們在哪裡呢？
關於國際 太空站？
不，先生。 我們從來沒有走到那一步。
他們繞地球一圈， 等待停靠。
還是推出了？我們要去 稍後再談這個，艾許。
你能與 這些衛星？
我需要打幾個電話。
我要打電話給我的孩子。
莫斯科、巴黎和倫敦。
他們剛報道 球體已經登陸。
他們已經開始戰鬥了，長官。
天啊...
上帝幫助我們。
沒有暫定的 不再探究。
任何攻擊都是最終的。
博士，預計到達時間是多少 瞄準所有 DC 的球體？
老實說，任何時候。
除非他們瞄準的是 人口較多的中心
例如洛杉磯或紐約。
聽我說。 我們是地球最後的希望。
我們不明白那些 衛星在線，
一切都結束了，人們。
是的，先生。 我們稱之為最後的戰士。
我們正在設定一個邊界 坦克和移動設施。
EMF 單位怎麼樣？
我們不確定他們是否會 還是有效果的。
我們沒有辦法協調 一旦 EMF 到達。
Skywatch，前往泰隆。結束了。
肖恩？
讓他接通通訊。
天空守望者，泰隆在這裡。 你的廿是多少？
準備著陸，泰隆。
我為你找到了一份差事，老兄。
我以為我錯過了聚會。
看來我來得正是時候。
肖恩，太好了 聽到你的聲音。
我的孩子們？
在郊區 現在是匹茲堡。
和我的父母。
大概是吃點餅乾吧。
謝謝。
我們照顧我們自己的，博士。
一般，怎麼可以 我可以為您服務嗎？
待命，隊長。
収到，先生。
我們要消滅它 首先是 EMF。
然後所有電池， 對即將到來的轉向架起火，
所有攔截器， 對即將到來的轉向架起火。
把這個從我的天空中拿走。
我們剛把它打亂了， 就這樣。
它衹是為我們贏得了一些時間。
德夫林在這裡。
我們已開始聯繫 與軌道平臺
並正在嘗試激活 雷射瞄準系統。
我們準備好了嗎？
我們相信一切 衛星瞄準系統
已經 成功激活。
你是什麼意思， 相信？
他們從未經過測試，先生。
有些診斷沒有 充份回應。
多少？
他們都認為自己在。
他們衹是從未完全 通過了武器檢查。
這到底意味著什麼？
如果失敗了， 我們會警告敵人。
現在，我們可以出發了嗎，先生？
關於這個的時間安排 非常關鍵。
每個受影響國家都有 確切地知道
何時爆炸球體以及 然後我們就會消滅他們。
這些衛星是否在 正確的軌道位置
瞄準球體？
衛星位於 地球靜止軌道
他們的武器瞄準 在同一個首都城市
那些球體 選擇了目標。
我們已經付出了每一個 軍事指揮官
我們了解到的所有資訊。
我希望這足夠了。
先生，球體已啟動。
我們還沒準備好。
我們需要開火 現在激光，先生。
不，你無法擊敗 帶有普通武器的球體。
我們需要那些雷射。 我們需要電磁場。
你有沒有警覺過 所有的領導？
俄羅斯和意大利 是最後的。
等下。 我有意大利的座標。
還在等俄羅斯。
先生！
先生，球體是三分鐘 離開並快速關閉。
抓住。
給我總統 俄羅斯在打電話。
給我賈菲船長 線。
-四號線。 -賈菲船長。
你需要什麼，博士？
你還有那些便攜式的嗎 上次小衝突中的電磁場？
我們有三名黑鷹 有 EMF 的附近。
偉大的。 用它們來阻止球體。
我們衹是需要多一點時間。
你聽到了嗎，船長？
響亮清晰。
你拖延他們， 但你不參與。
収到。
夥計，這件事衹是 不會放棄。
EMF 已啟動。
速度變慢了嗎？
目標鎖定。
飛彈走開。
-接觸。 -結果？
搖動，但不攪拌。
球體依舊 正朝著這個方向前進。
還有多少 你有導彈嗎？
再來一張。
我要結束這個了。
肖恩，記住， 不少於皕英尺。
沒辦法，博士。
我要拿這個 直入其心。
照顧好你的家人，博士。
那裡有一些很棒的孩子。
長官，充電並準備部署。
導彈鎖定。
發射干擾雷射。
飛彈走開。
-火！ -火！
用一切手段攻擊它 我們還剩下！
火！
越來越近了。
哦，這會起作用的。 必須如此。
我希望你是對的，博士。
整個地方都在塌陷。
出去，出去，大家都出去。
得到總統 離開這裡，現在。
大家，走吧！
大家都出去吧，走吧！
動起來，動起來，動起來！
我們走吧。 我們現在就走吧。
博士，現在，我們走吧！
嘿，我想我們找到人了！
這邊，快點！
我不敢相信你 兩個人這麼快就到了。
我們就在旁邊 一個空軍基地，爸爸。
搭便車很容易。
尤其是既然大家 想確定
我們在你醒來之前就到了這裡。
這件事充斥著新聞。
有外星人 船內。
等下，那些不是無人機？
不，至少是那些 木星附近則不然。
但消息稱， 很可能
第一波 外星士兵。
但船隻有 全部被摧毀，
和一切 在他們裡面。
總統說是你幹的？ 你把他們都炸了？
不，我們就是這麼做的。 我們的團隊。
好吧，你們踢屁股了。
賈菲船長呢？
他，呃…
他踢的屁股最多 我們中的任何一個人。
這邊走，先生。他衹是 透過這些窗簾。
我稍後會告訴你。
你好，呃，總統 還有，呃，博士。
我們該敬禮嗎？
難道大家都...
每個人都做到了 從掩體出來。
一切都很好，兒子。
我們想向您展示這一點。
這是什麼？
那是你的盧比肯號訊號。 你一直都是對的。
你也是對的 沒關係
裡面有外星人。
但當他們意識到 我們可以打破他們的玩具，
他們離開了操場 然後直接回家了。
我們走吧。
我衹是很抱歉花了我時間
這麼長時間才弄清楚 如何擊敗他們，先生。
但你做到了。
我想要你 我的工作人員，莫羅博士。
嗯，那是...
這是非常 受寵若驚，先生，但是，嗯…
我其實想 遠離政治。
嗯，也許是兼職 顧問。
你想想吧。 國家需要你。
好的。 謝謝您，先生。
我會考慮一下。
哇哦，哇哦， 哇，哇，哇，哇。
-肖恩！ -賈菲船長？
你還活著嗎？
是的。
你在開玩笑吧？
美國總統，總統 美國，
為您提供全職職位 你會考慮一下嗎？
有什麼好思考的？
好吧，我沒有說不，先生。 我...
這是一個重大決定。
來吧，夥計。
所以，你一定是那個年輕人 誰第一個發現了UAP。
代表感恩 國家，我要感謝你。
謝謝總統先生。
你知道，我可以做很多事 如果我在 NASA 工作的話會更多。
先生。
嗯，實習生這個詞 我想到了。
當然是付費的。
那你呢，年輕的女士？
哦，嗯，我受夠了 太空劇
為了陪伴我一生，所以...
我明白。
嗯，但是，地球和 環境研究...
哦，我感興趣的領域。
我需要一名助理。
哦，工作機會？
嗯嗯。
那我接受。
嗯，看來我們要去 在華盛頓待一段時間。
是的，我們是。
