Maybe your superior didn't want it to.

We have just over 35 minutes

to escape detonation.

- Thirty-five minutes?

- We've got to find Patient Zero first.

Now, just let me think

and get out of my way.

All right. The self-destruct sequence

was issued outside the base.

That way I can't abort it.

They'll have blocked all my access, but...

Maybe... Maybe if you use my office

computer you could...

You could circumvent the block

telekinetically.

I believe that could work.

Good!

Good.

Now, listen to me.

You try to access the system.

Whether it works or not, you find

your way to the personnel elevator

in 15 minutes and you join us, okay?

- All right?

- I will, Colonel.

- Let's go.

- Come on, people. This could work.

Where are we going?

Room 4118.

Let's go.

Keep it moving.

What the hell are you doing up?

The detonator's not remote. It's wired.

So that means that somebody's

going to have to...

- You can't.

- Yes, I can.

And you and I both know

I'm not going to make it anyway.

You were right, Claire.

We're all responsible for our own actions.

Orders or not, it's up to me.

Four decades of military service,

and if I've learned one thing,

it's when all is said and done,

you're only accountable for one person.

Yourself.

They brought this from the armory.

It's called a popper.

It fires a small explosive,

like a mini-crossbow bolt.

You hit an arm or leg, you blow it off.

It's not big enough for the Jeep,

but it may come in handy.

Thank you.

You better get going.

When did that elevator door close?

Get to the Jeep. Go, everyone!

Now! On the Jeep!

I've had enough of the secrets.

Secrets that are killing my men

up there right now.

It's time people knew the truth. You up to it?

Maybe not alone, but if we join forces

with Sam's level of influence...

And Claire's reputation for integrity...

Well, nobody would be able to cover

this story up.

All right. You shoot everything.

Hurry. She's in there all alone.

Sixty seconds.

Take this.

I'm not going to be needing that.

Yeah, that's right. I'm the one you want.

Hurry!

Hurry!

Go! Take cover!

Now! Now! Smith, now!

Yeah! Come get me, you big ugly alien!

Open fire!

That's right. You better run!

You okay?

Yeah.

You would figure they'd have some sort

of high-tech weapons

that pop out of the ground

and take care of these damn things.

They probably do.

Then why aren't they using them?

I guess someone values

these aliens' lives more than ours.

We're going to have to do this ourselves.

Got a back-up plan.

We have to time this thing out perfectly.

What are you thinking?

I don't know how long the signal's going

to last, so we better hurry.

It's me she wants.

So that's what we're going to give her.

He's here.

Come on. Let's go.

Wait. Wait.

Okay?

It's now or never.

Go! Now!

Now! Now!

I don't want to hurt you.

There's been enough bloodshed already.

Listen to me.

If we stay, we all die. So please...

You lied to me, Colonel.

J Rod, please.

You told me I was helping you

to understand your alien guests

so you could send them all home.

Instead you made me a tool of your cruelty.

We had to study your friend.

So that we could better understand you.

He died in the crash.

Was the missile strike accidental?

No.

I'm sorry. It's over.

Look, whatever happened, I'm sorry.

No.

We're going to expose the truth

about this whole place.

I do not believe you.

It's true! It's true!

He told us. He wants to show

the world what's happening here.

He's going to help us expose this place.

This man is not to be trusted.

My camera is destroyed.

We need the Colonel.

Without his protection,

you will be captured and silenced.

Don't you see? You have to trust us.

We have to tell them what's happening here!

Please! Please!

No!

Are you okay?

Sam?

Sam, you okay?

Yeah. I think so.

Something's wrong.

Cover me.

Ready?

Damn it.

He got away.

Oh, God, Sam.

Can you walk?

Yeah.

Hannah! Hannah!

Hannah.

Hey.

- Did you get it?

- Yeah.

Come on.

Are you okay?

Can you walk? Come on.

I think I broke my arm for real this time.

Airmen don't cry.

They bleed tears.

Patient Zero's still somewhere

in the compound.

I failed to abort the self-destruct sequence.

- We are still in danger.

- Oh, my God.

All right.

Personnel elevator should still work.

Let's just hope he doesn't know about it yet.

Come on, follow me.

Come on, Sam.

Hang in there.

We're going to get you out of here.

Can we make it in time, Colonel?

If absolutely nothing else

goes wrong, maybe.

Nothing else...

Lady Death could be up there,

the vehicles could be destroyed,

Patient Zero could be waiting to ambush us.

Yeah.

Did you kill her?

- Yes, sir.

- Yes, sir.

Good work.

Come on. We've got less than 10 minutes

before this whole place goes up.

Our most dangerous resident

is still at large.

If he gets off the grounds,

we'll have to set up check points,

road blocks.

We cannot let him escape, people!

Colonel, who are you calling?

General Hammer.

She'll know what to do.

Sam, what did you do?

He's an alien! Shoot him!

I'm out!

It ends here, Patient Zero.

Thank you.

You okay? You okay?

We now have seven minutes.

Come on! Everybody in. Let's go! Come on!

Go, go, go! Just go!

I'm driving as fast as I can.

I recommend a higher rate of speed

to avoid the fallout.

- Never mind.

- Just go! Get out of here. Go!

The Air Force and the Pentagon would not

comment on the footage that you just saw.

Nor will they comment on the whereabouts

or even confirm

that Miss Fallon and Mr. Whitaker

and their crews were there.

I was there, though.

And I witnessed the most incredible

and unbelievable explosion

that I've ever seen.

Not to mention covering the biggest story

I've ever covered.

Actually, you're about to top it.

Claire Fallon, you made it out!

Yeah, and I brought some friends with me.

I imagine you have questions for me.

People need to know the truth.

Don't go away.

We'll be right back with

this exclusive interview.
