Alien Raiders Page #2

Synopsis: It's the end of yet another night at Hastings Supermarket, an idyllic family grocery store in Buck Lake, Arizona. But the normal monotony of rounding up shopping carts and settling out the cash drawers is broken at 11:07pm, just before closing when a group of masked and armed-to-the-teeth militants invades the store, immediately killing several of the employees and shoppers and holding the rest hostage. Though the hostage-takers at first appear to be robbers or terrorists, they reveal themselves to be a cadre of rogue scientists that has discovered and tracked an alien infestation to THIS STORE on THIS NIGHT, and they are determined to find out which of the survivors are extraterrestrials and end the invasion at any cost.

And you, skinny boy, why don't you grab

that box right there and break that lock?

- Why?

- I'm the one with the gun, that's why.

See how you dance without that gun,

a**hole.

- What did you say?

- Nothing.

Cover him up with some plastic.

All right, let's get out of here.

Move it.

Are you guys all right?

The cops are still busy debriefing

the hostages that we released.

So, what now?

Plan B.

They shot this woman.

I don't know

why they didn't shoot us too.

So how many shooters was that?

Two.

Three.

- It was a slaughterhouse.

- Hey, Seth's here.

We got a hostage situation here,

Chicago.

What are you talking about? I just left

here. Let's get this lady out of the way.

This is kind of a new territory

for us here.

Are you kidding me?

My wife's daughter is in there.

The hostages.

Okay.

All right, move it, everybody.

Everybody, move it to the back! Let's go!

- Move it!

- I don't know.

- These guys...

- Just do what they say.

Things get too complicated...

...it gets hard real fast.

They got us in the back, too, surrounded.

Well, how many?

It doesn't matter

how many people are there.

We need to take care of this situation

at hand.

That's exactly my point, Ritter.

We don't have enough people

to complete the situation at hand.

- We bring in a new spotter.

- What?

Who's gonna walk in here

even if the cops would let him?

Charlotte.

Oh, my God, Charlotte?

After what happened in Scottsdale?

- That was an accident.

- Was it?

It doesn't matter.

We don't have a choice.

Unless somebody else has a better idea,

that's what we're doing.

- What are you gonna do to us?

- Hey.

You got one more time to open up

your mouth! Do you want this?

Just make yourselves comfortable, okay?

Okay, all right.

All right.

In the meantime until she gets here...

...we do the snip test.

What if we already killed him?

According to Spooky, we didn't.

There are some younger kids back there.

I know that. But if this thing gets out,

it's gonna get a helluva lot worse.

No, it's all right.

All right. I need bandages, tape, peroxide,

Tupperware containers, lots of ice.

Something that will make a clean cut.

Markers.

You know, that's real considerate of you.

Okay. Okay. Aisle 4 and 6. I'm on it.

Sterling?

Take care of the cell phones.

Check the other bodies.

See which ones have been infected.

Make sure Logan videotapes everything.

That may be all there's left

once this thing's over.

All right.

So, what, Ritter,

you gonna call K.C. Or what?

I'll go get the milk.

- Take care of the lights first.

- Yeah, I'll get the lights first.

Tell these guys to kick their high beams on

so they're as blind as we are.

Chambers said he took down two.

- How many dead?

- One confirmed the 911 call.

We don't know about the second.

Did you call Jennifer?

Phone's off.

She don't wanna wake the baby.

It's probably best she doesn't know

what's going on.

- I need to hear those tapes.

- We're getting it now.

Yeah. How many hostages?

Manager says five or so employees. Cars

in the lot give us four or five shoppers.

Maybe more, maybe less.

We're running plates and getting names.

Look, keep their friends and family

on a perimeter.

I need to set up a triage as well,

in case we get any more wounded out here.

Keep an ambulance on the ready.

I'm assuming there may be a television

or a radio on the inside...

...so we're gonna need to get somebody out

here on the media, keep them in control.

Just where exactly do you think

you're living these days?

Look, scratch that. Let's just get somebody

to talk to the family and friends...

...and find out if there's any health issues

with regards to the hostages, okay?

- Will do.

- Thank you.

So I guess you're used to this, huh?

No, you never get used to this.

See you later, Spook.

Well, I thought they'd bring

their big guns.

Well, this is Buck Lake.

These are their big guns.

We need to cut all the phone lines

at the front of the store.

I'm so sorry.

I can't keep another drop of anything down.

Finish it.

Don't f***ing talk down to us, a**hole.

I can have you killed.

- What did you say?

- Nothing.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

Big boy...

...don't get too comfortable, all right?

You're first.

- Uh, first?

- First for what?

Now, you know what for, don't you?

What?

The first one is ready. Come and get him.

Who are these guys?

Terrorists.

Like in that TV show.

They wanna kill all of us.

Tarkey's gonna die.

- What?

Shh, shh, shh.

The dead cop,

I saw a gun strapped to his ankle.

- Are you sure?

- Cop that's in the freezer?

One of us has to go back there.

Whitney, don't be a douche bag, okay?

- You're a douche bag.

- You're a douche bag.

Stop it.

Listen, they came in, started shooting.

They didn't try to negotiate.

They're gonna kill us all.

You don't know that.

Yeah, yeah. You don't...

You don't know that.

My stepdad was a hostage negotiator

in Chicago.

I'm telling you,

the only way we're gonna get out of this...

...is if we save ourselves.

- That's what they did in that TV show.

- Manny...

...I swear, if you don't shut up,

I'm gonna kill you myself.

Uh-uh.

It could be rigged.

Then maybe you should stand back then.

Is this a robbery or is this a siege?

It's a picture of the stock boy.

What do we have on this guy?

The van is registered

to an Aaron Ritter, 43...

...widowed. Wife is dead.

Apparently, he used to work at JPL.

- JPL?

- It stands for Jet Propulsion...

- Jet Propulsion Laboratories. I know.

- Yeah.

What do you mean "used to"?

Either he quit or was fired a few years

back. We're still getting details on it.

Let's get a phone line in,

see if we can talk to this guy.

The lines in front are cut.

- There's no other lines in?

- We're checking on it.

Let's get on it.

My name's Aaron Ritter.

This is Sherry Sterling...

...our medic.

Over here is Logan...

...he's our technician.

This is Kane.

- Notice they don't say what he does.

- Shh.

We are no happier about this situation

than you are.

But it is what it is...

...and we're gonna have to deal with it.

Look, uh...

These two?

They're just kids. You don't need them.

Why don't you let them go? Their parents

are gonna be worried about them.

I'm sure you all have

people out there who are worried...

...and we are gonna do our best...

...to figure out which of you are cleared

to go home as soon as possible.

Cleared? What do you mean cleared?

We know for a fact that one of you has

been infected with a dangerous substance.

And we've traced the origin

of that substance to Buck Lake.

Our spotter's dead.

Now he's the only one that could tell us

which of you had been exposed.

We're gonna have to rely on a backup

method to figure out which of you...

...are carriers.

Logan.

Come on.

- Whoa! What are you gonna do?

What are you gonna...?

Okay. Okay. Okay.

- Relax. Relax.

- Okay. Okay.

Look...

...we're gonna do a test.

This milk has altered your pH.

It'll cause a reaction in the carrier.
