Age of Ice

Synopsis: When sudden and massive earthquakes open the Arabian tectonic plate, the result is unstable weather and freezing temperatures that will be unsurvivable by nightfall. Attempting to reach safety, a vacationing American family in Egypt, the Jones', must battle the rapidly cooling temperatures that usher in a new Ice Age, covering the Sphinx, Pyramids, and Sahara Desert with mountains of snow.

Mother. This is

Raider 3-niner-5.

I have the Jordanian vessels in sight.

Copy.

Raider. 3-9-5.

The Jordanians have

dropped their moorings and

are headed to the

designated exercise area.

Understood Raider 3-9-5. You

are cleared from surveillance.

Return to Mother.

Copy Mother.

Heading home.

Raider 3-9-5. Use ILS

approach 07, call the ball.

Will call, Mother.

I have the ball.

I am on ILS glideslope.

I love this job.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

Jesus Christ!

Raider 395. You are off

the glideslope and too slow!

Increase your speed and go around.

I repeat. Go around!

Son of a b*tch!

Come on baby! Work with me!

Raider 3-9-5.

Eject! Eject!

Punching out!

Sea Hawk is in bound to

retrieve 395. We're on our way.

Water rescue alpha, we have his

position. Sending it to you now.

Copy, ETA on scene in

less than one minute.

I see him in the water! Got

him over here! Turn him over.

He didn't make it.

What do you think?

We're picking up extreme temperature

spikes all around us. -Sir.

Island navigation is reporting

multiple seismic anomalies.

Is this a live feed?

Yes, sir.

It's not localized.

It's the entire Arabian plate!

Tell the Regan to lock

down the flight decks.

Get everything they can in the air.

Notify the Jordanian fleet.

Get me NAVCENT Bahrain on the line, Now!

Help!

I'm pleased to be your tour

guide first thing this morning!

I know it's a desert but I did not expect

it to be this hot at 8 in the morning.

They are used to the

warm temperatures here.

No! Too hot...

The Pyramids were built

over 4,500 years ago

from 2.5 million stones.

Now these tombs are more

then just burial sites.

They are described through art,

inscription and text on the walls.

And they tell us how these

people lived their daily lives.

I'm learning so much more

actually being here than

just studying it in school.

Your mother was once a

buyer for Naufal & Sons,

we spent so much time in

this part of the world.

So, why couldn't mom come with us?

She's still out looking for regional

artwork for the new boutique.

Oh!

Sorry! Excuse me.

I'm so clumsy sometimes.

I see that you're reading

about the pyramid constructions?

Yeah! This says it only

took 20 years to build, but,

I mean, that doesn't

technically make sense?

I mean, 2.5 million

stones being brought in...

- What?

- No! It's just that...

I use to try figuring

out myself, you know?

And all I did was

confuse myself even more.

Bye.

I want to see what's back here!

Who was that?

That was uh,

someone paying their

respects to an old friend.

Skilled workers stayed in

the temporary city near by...

the Ancient Egyptians created a piece of

architecture made to last an eternity.

And even today their struggle

to survive makes anything we

complain about just pale in comparison.

We don't struggle now?

Not like they did!

Besides, we have modern conveniences,

technology, toys...

You mean like those new

conveniences and toys

you put in the buildings

that you design?

Speaking of toys, why don't

you put that thing away, Dylan.

And join us.

This is cool, Dad, but I'm stuck

in this one part of my game.

Son of a b*tch!

Dylan! Language!

What are you doing anyway?

The bat is escaping these

monsters in this huge building.

I have to use sound waves to guide

them to the next floor of the building.

If you don't put that thing away,

you're going to escape this

ancient building only to wind up

in a modern bedroom

with a month of no games!

Fine! Jeez.

So 2.5 million stones were

used in the construction

of the pyramids. And

it took skilled workers

closed to 20 years

to finish the project.

Yeah, I saw an episode on the

Discovery Channel about that.

Come on, we're missing the tour!

Amber, don't drive the tour guide crazy!

So we still have to make time for the

camel ride around the Sphinx at sunset!

Um, maybe your mom can

go with you for that.

- I'm up for whatever.

- Ok.

Great tour Akram! I'm

really surprised that you

didn't know that part about

the Valley Temple, though.

Thank you for using Anubis Tours!

Sorry.

Hi honey.

I was able to get the pottery

supplier to meet my terms

and found some amazing fertility

sculptures the clients are just gonna love.

Well, the tour guide didn't even

mention that the Great Pyramid

was once the tallest man-made

structure in the world,

or that it's the oldest...

Ok Amber! We don't care.

The Pyramids were really something,

Weren't they, Dylan?

It's too hot here, next

year we're going to Tahoe!

Well, I'm starving.

How about an early lunch?

Hamburgers!

I'm not eating mushed beans again!

You mean hummus Dylan?

Maybe Amber can move here and

be a know-it-all tour guide!

Oh, go play with your bats!

No, no, no, no, no!

Dad! Look! It's that kid from the tour!

Over there! Over there! Go! Now! Now!

Go!

- I cannot thank you enough!

- Are you all right?

I'm a bit shaky but I'll be fine.

- Tariq.

- Jack.

- Oh my god! Jack! Are you ok?

- Yeah yeah!

I'm gonna go and get help, ok?

Jack!

What is going on?

- I cannot let you back in.

- What are we suppose to do?

Where are we supposed to go?

We're trying to help

the injured here, sir.

Please wait with the

others where it's safe.

We'll make sure to let you

know when we can assist you.

- Well? - The hotel said we should

just stay here and somebody

- Will come get us, ok?

- Ok.

It's fine. It's fine.

Anything?

No, nothing!

Have you seen anything on the TV?

Yes, the newscaster said it was

the Arabian Peninsula that shifted.

What?

The entire Arabian

Peninsula that shifted.

There are earthquakes

from here to Dubai.

Anything else?

Uh, the edge of the Arabian

tectonic plate that runs

down the middle of the Red Sea parted,

Exposing salt water directly

to magma for over 1,000 miles.

The TV then went to static.

Jack, I was able to

get a hold of my father,

and he thinks this is much

bigger than it seems. Bigger?

What did he just say?

He says that you should go to the

US Embassy and you'll be safe there.

- That sounds like...

- They're lying, Jack.

- Why would they do that?

- Because that is the US Embassy.

To keep people safe...

and calm.

What else did your

father tell you, Tariq?

Jesus. What are these circles?

Vaporized salt water is

seeding through the clouds.

Creating a massive unstable

low-pressure system.

He said that people in those

circles, need to evacuate

immediately as temperature

will drop below zero

making the whole area

inhabitable by sundown.

Are we in this circle right here?

Yes.

Ok, so there's lava and a cold

front and shifting plates...

We need to go somewhere else?

That's what it sounds like.

It's salty!

Ok, I'm thinking we need to get

to the airport and get back home.

Babe, a plane isn't gonna

be able to fly in this!

The US Embassy is in the

heart of the city over there.

Um, yeah, that's not going to happen.

Can't we just find

shelter and stay here?

No outside help is going to be able
