What about you?
I'll be fine.
I have to touch this baby down.
What are you waiting for?
Go! Go!
There he is. I see him.
- Wherw is Sasha? Wherw is Sasha?
- Come on. Let's go.
He said he's fine. We should get
out of here before he touches down.
No, no, no. Don't go.
We have to wait for him.
Go, Jackson. Go.
- Don't go!
- it won't start. it won't start.
Just shut up, everybody!
Engine...
...start.
Voice control. Sold me on it.
Hey! Hey!
Welcome to
the People's Republic of China.
Good to be here. Say hi, kids.
- Hi.
- Hi.
What color are your passes?
What color
are your boarding passes?
I have green card.
For my boys and me.
What?
Yuri. Yuri.
Yuri, it's a mistake. A joke, right?
What?
You think I didn't know
about you and Sasha?
May God bless
that poor bastard's soul.
I'm sorry, guys. Good luck.
Come on, boys.
- Does anybody have any money?
- I do, I do.
You got a billion euros?
Dr. Wilson?
I'm Captain Michaels,
skipper of the American ship.
Please accept my condolences
for your father.
Thank you, captain.
Mr. Anheuser,
your party is the last to arrive.
There've been reports
of severe damage, captain.
What's the status of Ark Number 3?
We haven't done
a complete assessment yet...
...but it looks like we lost it.
No toothbrush. Only books.
Yeah, when I was a kid,
my dad was on the road a lot.
a box full of books...
...call me every night and quiz me.
I'd get an ice-cream cone
for every book I read...
...so I was a fat kid.
I find that very hard to believe.
No, it's true.
My high school career
was 2000 books...
...and zero girlfriends.
I didn't even kiss a boy
till I was in college.
They were all too scared
of my dad.
Leave it to the Chinese.
I didn't think it was possible.
Not in the time we had.
That's Ark Number 3, sir.
The roof collapsed on it
during the shifting of the Earth's crust.
Jesus Christ.
Boarding of Ark Number 3 will be
delayed due to technical difficulties.
- Excuse me.
- We paid a fortune!
Please be patient
as we keep you updated.
Hey, what's going on here?
I have a green card
for my boys and me.
I want to speak to a supervisor.
I am the supervisor.
Get back with the other green cards
or I'll have you detained.
What he said about you and Sasha,
is it true?
Sasha was worth
I should have listened to you,
Dr. Silberman.
I actually liked the way I looked
before that monster talked me into it.
Did you know he asked me
for a discount?
And he paid in installments.
Cheap bastard.
You hear that?
Over therw!
- Hey!
- Hey!
- Stop! Stop! Please!
- Hey! Hold it!
Hey! Hey!
Stop! Stop! Stop!
Help!
Hey!
How were all these people chosen?
Same way your art was:
By experts from all over the world.
We had geneticists determine
the perfect gene pool to repopulate.
These people
were chosen by geneticists?
All green-card holders,
please proceed to Gallery D-4.
Looks like their checkbooks
got them onboard.
Right. Without billions of dollars
from the private sector...
...this would've been impossible.
We sold tickets.
And what about all these workers?
They all get passes?
What, life isn't fair? is that it?
to a couple of Chinese workers...
...you be my guest.
Captain, I want a prelaunch briefing.
All international teams present.
What the hell?
What is this?
You could fit 10 people in here.
Satnam, where are you?
- On the Nampan Plateau.
- What?
There's a tidal wave
coming from the east.
- it's gigantic.
- Satnam, what happened?
We never got picked up, Adrian.
Goodbye, my friend.
Satnam.
- The flooding is coming this way?
- Mary. Where are we set up?
Over therw.
Get me the satellite images
from Nampan, India.
- Okay, right away.
- What's happening?
No. Satnam was talking
about another wave...
...coming from the east.
- Holy mother.
- The flooding is gonna hit earlier?
is that what you're telling me?
The second wave is closer?
- Plug in the new data.
- Okay.
- Satnam didn't get picked up.
- What?
A lot of people didn't get picked up
in this chaos.
This is not a conspiracy, Helmsley.
Your predictions haven't exactly
panned out, have they, doctor?
it's ready. it's ready.
Oh, God. it's 1500 meters high.
When's it gonna get here? Talk to me,
Helmsley. When's it gonna hit?
Adjust the countdown.
Twenty-eight minutes,
Oh, my God.
Captain, I need to speak to the other
heads of state immediately.
- Right away. Taylor?
- Aye, captain. Standing by.
Ark 6, stand by. Ark 7, stand by.
- Carl Anheuser, acting CIC, Ark 4.
- Yes, sir.
Requesting emergency conference,
T-99.
you know that?
He's a great little man.
Yeah.
I always wanted to have a family
of my own.
You're a lucky man, Jackson.
Don't ever forget it.
Who are they?
of the road.
Send them back!
I am a follower...
...of our great Lama Rinpoche.
You know I cannot do that.
What's the problem?
You don't have to take all of us.
Just take my children.
I'm begging you.
Why should I do that?
The same reason
you sent for your family.
Please.
Just the children.
You don't have to take us.
Please!
Please. Oh, my God.
Please. I don't know
if you can understand what I'm saying.
As a mother, I'm begging you.
Please take them.
Please.
We are all children of the earth.
My plan will not work for so many,
Grandma.
We will take them all.
Please.
Thank you. Thank you.
Attention:
All construction workers,off deck.
All crew members, onboard now.
They're opening the mountain.
Step back. Get back.
What did I tell you?
They are leaving you behind too.
Look, idiot.
Please be patient.
Let's go.
Follow me.
We have to hurry!
They are leaving!
initiate security procedures.
Time to impact:
Oh, excuse me.
Where can I find Adrian Helmsley?
He's on the bridge. This way.
Tenzin wait!
Grandma, we're almost there.
Green lights on pressure,
Mr. Anton?
Green lights across the board,
captain.
Why do they have anchors?
Because they're not spaceships,
buddy. They're arks.
Let's go.
Mr. President.
You've got to see this.
Stop.
Stop! Stop!
Stop!
Engage the support mechanisms.
Aye, aye, captain.
Engaging bow-anchor supports.
How long are these things expecting
to hold us in place?
They're just meant to withstand
the first impact of the waves.
Down there Oleg, you go first!
Caesar.
Good. Good boy.
Come to Mommy. Caesar!
Mom, where's Tamara?
Daddy look!
Come on. Caesar, come on.
- Tamara!
- I'm coming.
Take him.
Oh, my God.
What's happening out there?
