2012: Ice Age Page #5

---

These clouds don't look normal.

Nothing looks normal.

Is that a twister?

Bill, fly us out of here.

What's wrong?

Can you fly above it?

I don't know.

Don't we have

a weather detection device?

I don't see one.

Bill, we're flying

right into the thick of that.

Hold on!

Dad, you got to get us

out of here!

Fly higher!

Higher, Bill!

Ha ha!

Amazing, dad.

Dad! Two o'clock! Look!

Are they gonna

go bomb the glacier?

I have no idea.

Everything proceeding properly,

approaching glacier.

Roger that. We're at

the observation location.

We're at an altitude

of 3-500 feet

And six miles

from location impact.

We need the coordinates

to plant the explosions.

Roger that.

Sending them now.

Teams five and six

have landed,

waiting for supplies.

Roger that.

We are descending now.

Lieutenant colonel Sinor,

an hour till impact.

Affirmative?

Roger that.

Come on, come on,

get it, go, go!

Lieutenant colonel Sinor,

how long

until the payload drop?

Arriving now.

Roger that.

Come on.

We have to find shelter.

I have to tell my parents

I'm in jersey.

We will.

Come on.

Can we just stop?

I'm tired.

Not yet.

We have to keep going.

Come on.

Hey! Aah! Aah!

Give me your coat!

Hey, let her go!

- What are you doing?

- Stop!

Let him go!

Give me your coat

or I'm gonna kill you!

Stop! Stop!

National Guard!

Stop!

Are you okay?

Stop!

What the hell are you two

doing out here?

This city's been evacuated!

- To where?

- To shelters.

Hell, you guys are lucky

I found you.

I was on my last sweep.

Let's go!

But what about

the glacier?

Isn't it headed right for us?

Not for long.

There's a combined taskforce

on its way to meet it.

So you've declared war

on a glacier?

That's right.

It's the last chunk

of the glacier,

and they're putting

everything they have on it.

Now get your asses inside

before I have you arrested!

Go! Go!

That's the last

of the explosives, major.

Good, good!

All explosives

have been deployed.

Roger that.

The charges are in place!

Take us back home!

Copy that.

Prepare for extraction.

Roger that.

Hey, Nelson.

Grab the computer.

I wanna find out...

if we can connect

to a satellite at this altitude.

Got it.

Should take a sec.

Reception blows up here.

I got a signal.

What do you want me to do?

Okay, I want you to connect up

to the noaa website.

I wanna find out

where that glacier is right now.

Got it.

What's the login?

Login is username Julia,

Password, Nelson.

Dad, that's lame.

That is sweet.

Lame or not, open up

the tracking program.

Now run the simulation

with the same coordinates,

But put in our GPS location

right now.

What are you looking for?

Trying to find out

how far away we are from that glacier.

Okay, it's 50 miles

behind us.

It's moving at

What?

How can a glacier move

at 200 miles per hour?

I have no idea.

I don't think

anybody else does either.

Can we outrun that?

Are we gonna

make it on time?

Let's find out.

What's wrong?

We're icing up.

Doesn't this model

have de-icers?

No. We're gonna have to fly low

if we're gonna make it.

We're burning fuel

like crazy.

I need you guys

to look outside...

and see if you can find

any kind of private airfield,

a crop dusting operation, anything.

You guys finding anything?

How far away are we

from New York?

Can't be more

than 100 miles.

You guys seeing

anything?

I don't see anything.

This visibility

sucks balls.

Nelson!

Okay, guys, hold on.

We're gonna go lower.

Anything?

Nope, nothing.

We're still collecting

a lotta ice.

I may have to put her down

at any time, guys.

How much more ice

can this thing take?

Not a lot.

These headwinds

are killing us.

We could walk there faster.

How much further is it?

About another

I'm gonna try to land her

at Newark or La Quardia.

Will they allow us to land

without a flight plan?

Well, I'll just radio ahead...

and tell them we're an emergency.

They have to let us land.

What if there's no one there

to hear us?

Oh, crap!

What?

We just ran out of fuel

in the right fuel tank!

Okay, guys,

strap yourselves in.

Get ready. We're gonna have to go for

an emergency landing.

Really, Bill?

Yes! Get ready!

God, look at all of these people.

Well, at least

we get free cookies.

You think your parents

are still trying to find us?

I hope so.

What about your family?

Dad's in northern Europe

near Oslo.

It's probably the first hit.

It's okay.

I'm happy to be with you.

Okay, you guys.

We gotta get serious about finding

another place to land,

because we're not gonna

make it to Newark.

We're entering into

the New York air corridor now.

I'm gonna get

on the radio...

and see if anybody's

there listening.

Give me the radio

there, Nelson.

Newark tower,

this is Cessna...

where's

the flight number?

Give me the flight number.

This is cessna number

November niner, niner, 7-2-5.

Declaring an emergency.

Do you copy?

Can they even hear us?

Oh, I don't know.

What are we gonna do now?

Well, we're gonna find a hole

and slip into it.

Buckle up, guys.

One way or another,

we're gonna be on the ground...

in a couple of minutes,

so hold on.

I need you guys

to look around...

to see if you can see

any other aircraft...

That might be landing

without tower permission, okay?

Brace yourselves!

Two o'clock! Look!

You okay?

You all right?

You okay?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah? Okay.

We're down.

Okay, okay.

Let's get out, guys.

Come on.

Come on out.

Come on, guys.

Here we go.

You okay?

Yeah.

Well, I guess we

got out just in time.

Hey, guys, look.

It's New York.

We did it!

Almost there.

Yeah.

Did you crash

that one eighty?

Yeah. I'm really sorry.

I got all the insurance

information if you need it.

If a crashed Cessna was all

we had to worry about,

I'd call it a good day.

Come with me.

Let's get you

into someplace safe.

Colonel sinor,

this is command.

We are less than

Roger that.

We are all clear

and standing by.

Give me a long count,

captain.

Fire!

We got to get

out of here.

Were you guys headed

into Manhattan?

Yeah, because we're trying

to get our daughter.

I'm sorry.

No one's getting in

and out of New York alive.

Just stay here. The National Guard's

gonna be here to get you.

Don't worry.

It's gonna be okay.

I'll be right...

Oh!

Oh!

Come on, get back!

Get back!

We just gotta stay away

from tall buildings...

with lots of glass, got it?

Dad, we're going

to Manhattan.

Point taken.

So how we gonna

get there?

We got to get ourselves

another car...

and then just drive

into the city.

- And go where?

- To the dorm.

The dorm? She's not at the dorm

and you know that.

We can only hope

she got our message.

What, to go to Florida?

Look, she may not

be in New York,

But we have start there.

From there, maybe

we'll be able to find

Some sort of clue

where she...

Are you willing

to sacrifice?

Hey, guys!

Are we going or what?

Were the keys

in the ignition?

I don't wanna know.
