51
You're going to be on live. Okay.
Ready in three, two, one...
This is Sharon Solomon with a Channel 6
News exclusive story.
One that some might say
is out of this world.
I am here live at the perimeter of
the Air Force Flight Test Center.
And if that sounds unfamiliar to you,
then perhaps you know this base
by its more popular name, Area 51.
Rumored to be a classified holding area
for alien life forms,
Area 51 is widely known as the most
secretive place on Earth,
but we at Channel 6 have just learned today
that the government has given in
to public and political pressure
and is allowing visitors to Area 51
for the first time ever.
This is Sharon Solomon, reporting live.
Now back to you.
I want this to go quickly and cleanly.
Two hours, tops.
I will take them around Level 1,
but Level 2 is more important
to our tour here.
Our guests must feel they saw something
that no one has ever seen before.
If they go back and report
that there is no access,
no transparency at Area 51,
my superiors will make my life hell.
Which means I will have no choice
but to make all of your lives hell
so I'll have company.
Understand?
All right.
You all know this man.
For 20 years, World Report Nightly.
"I'm Sam Whitaker and that is the news."
That is correct.
But he's not the one
we're concerned with here.
Claire Fallon. Author, creator
and sole contributor to The Fact Zone,
the world's most popular news blog.
Fallon was added to the tour, last minute,
over my objections.
She is smart, relentless,
and never satisfied with the official story.
Remember, shoot everything.
Always do.
Boys in Washington hope her street cred
will help dispel these stories
of us hiding extraterrestrials here.
I caught your appearance
on Talk Back last week.
Cool. Did you learn anything?
Both reporters will be bringing along
an assistant to document the tour.
Here on a skeleton crew shift,
our guests may take a look around
and think they can get away with something
simply because no one
seems to be watching.
That's why I want you all
to be extra vigilant.
If any of these four guests
get anywhere near the lower levels,
you are authorized to shoot them first
and make up the reasons why later.
You know the drill. Make me proud.
- Dismissed.
- Yes, sir.
Wow. I can't believe
that Claire Fallon's here.
You think the Chief will let me
get my picture taken with her?
Yeah, because the Chief loves it
to go hit on reporters.
Welcome to Area 51.
I will be your tour guide today.
I want to thank you all for coming.
I assure you that my superiors
wish for today's event
to represent a new sense of honesty
and transparency
between the government and the public.
Isn't she the one that...
Yeah.
Now, our base here
is a six-by-10-mile installation
with a rich history of military progress
in the areas of aviation and weaponry,
backed by a strong sense of tradition,
honor, and pride.
I got a question.
We've been posted at this nest
for over a year...
That's not a question.
Well, the question is what's the point?
Shoes, are you an enlisted man
in the United States Air Force?
- Yeah.
- Do your superiors give you orders?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
- That's the point.
But since all of you
are only interested in one thing,
we will forgo a proper tour of the base
and focus on what you came here for.
Hangar 18.
Follow me, please.
I'd still like to meet her, though.
- Lieutenant Walters?
- Yes, sir.
I heard they were transferring you over
from the Malaka Pod pens.
This tour's got everyone moving around.
Boy, if those guests could only see
what's really down here.
Yes, sir.
I'm a civilian, Walters.
You don't have to call me sir.
- Understand?
- Yes, civilian.
Doc will be just fine.
Ground rules.
What you see here is proprietary technology
decommissioned specifically for this tour.
You may report on what I show you,
but if I ask you not to shoot
something or to write about it,
you will oblige. Are we clear?
Look but don't touch,
always stay with the group,
and if you should stray from the tour,
Lieutenant Kamecki, here,
will help you find your way back.
The subject you're about to encounter
crash-landed 25 years ago.
He's not like the others you've seen.
He's a morpher. You know what that means?
He changes shapes.
Anyone he touches, he can imitate.
Sorry, you wanted him to answer.
His DNA has a replicating element.
It simulates skin, clothes, hair.
If he touches you, he can look like you.
He can speak like you, too,
but only things he's heard you say.
In fact, at any time he can look or sound
like anyone he's ever imitated.
Are you ready to meet Patient Zero?
Right. I got it. Mindy, and here.
Mindy? Here.
So, Colonel, tell us
why is this called Area 51?
Old land survey maps were broken down
into geo-grids.
So where we are now is situated
- In fact...
- Colonel, if I may,
is it really just you and this kid
taking us on this tour?
I mean, no offense, sir.
It's just I would have thought
that for such a landmark event...
Miss Fallon,
you'll understand the U.S. Military
has important jobs to do.
Now, if we were really keeping
extraterrestrials here,
it might qualify as an important job.
But we're not, so it doesn't.
Now, don't get me wrong,
you'll see very many impressive things
on this tour,
but there are no aliens
to be found in Area 51.
What do we do if he tries something?
But if he does try something, shoot him.
Why isn't he in restraints?
The restraints make him depressed
and uncooperative.
We figured out a way to keep his mood up
with a regimen of gaseous drugs
absorbed through his skin.
We synthesize the sedative using
his own blood mixed with human blood.
His is blue.
That's why the gas comes out purple.
We try to keep him happy.
Two meals a day and his favorite band
on a loop.
What is it? Some kind of alien music?
Actually, the band is called Ice Spiders.
They're from Earth. Well, as far as we know.
Patient Zero spends most of his time here
and sometimes we do use him
on special jobs.
My dad has that same picture of Reagan.
It's not Reagan.
Lunch time.
And how is my favorite patient today?
Sorry about this.
It's okay.
There you go. It's good, isn't it?
J Rod, are you there?
J Rod, I'm detecting some unusual behavior
in Little Devil's pen.
It's probably nothing, but if you get
a second can you check his vitals?
All right. It's probably nothing,
but I will check.
Thanks, good buddy.
Welcome to the Warehouse.
This is the POW.
- The POW?
Creates an aimed impacted
equivalent to 10 grenades.
Has it been...
Has it been used yet in combat?
The first set doesn't come off-line
until next year.
We hope it won't have to be.
This weapon is so accurate.
It has a three-mile range.
We've got 3,000 of these things
