I know, all right?

We'll test her before we go,

if it doesn't test out,

we won't bring her.

Okay.

Darrin. Look, I'm

trusting you guys

with everything my dad left me.

This is all her stuff,

we wouldn't be able to do

any of this without her.

Look, you guys have

your reasons, all right?

And I have mine,

and I need to do this.

I just... I don't want

to be here

if you really don't want

me here.

I think she could help us.

You really think so?

Yeah.

I know I can.

Ready for a 9-mile hike

there and back?

It's 11 miles. And, yes.

We good?

It's fine.

- Is it in?

- Yeah.

Like an actual motion sensor?

Like, we went to

the border and took one.

You're kidding.

There she is.

All right, we jammed the signal.

What?

It changes frequency

after, like, 30 seconds.

What does that mean?

It means we have

to detect the signal,

jam it, and then disable it

before it changes frequencies.

F***.

Look, nobody said

it was gonna be easy.

So, this is the access card we

got off your dad's friend there.

And that...

This is his cologne.

There you go.

Did you get it?

Can't tell.

Look in the light.

Yeah. There it is.

Yeah. There she is.

That's a good one.

You see it, Darrin?

You guys, there's someone by our car.

What? What?

There's someone

sneaking around our car.

Where is he?

Dude, he's right there, man.

There's stuff in the car.

Doesn't matter, it's not...

What do you mean,

it doesn't f***ing matter?

Come on, we gotta keep moving.

We got stuff to do. Let's go.

Where is he?

I don't know.

I don't see him. He's gone.

Keep going. Just keep going.

He's messing with us.

Thermal cameras

all around the base,

and they pick up your body heat.

So what we're gonna do is,

we're gonna pump Freon through this suit.

Fit in right here,

and that'll mask our body temperature.

Darrin, turn on the Freon

and put on the thermal?

Yep. Good.

All right.

- How's it looking?

- It's looking good.

You can see the Freon

coming through.

I can see your body cooling

down, it's kinda cool.

Only problem is,

it's escaping through your head, so.

All right.

Let's try the mask.

All right.

It's helping.

There we go.

Good?

Hey, hold on.

Let him just tie it off.

It's sweet.

- Coming through her whole suit.

- It's coming in?

Her whole suit

looks pretty good.

It's like it is matching

the outside.

All right. It should

all work then.

We should probably

bring along boots.

Hold on to the ammonia sensor,

we gotta check Jelena.

Let's do it.

Dude, let's go.

What?

I'm not doing it.

What do you mean

you're not gonna drive us?

I'm not gonna drive you until you

tell me why you're doing this.

You know why we're doing this,

they're hiding secrets out there.

I need a better reason

than that.

I'm not gonna drive you there unless

you tell me why you're doing this.

You said you would do it.

Yeah. I didn't know we were

actually gonna get this far, Reid.

I thought you were

gonna snap out of it.

You saw a light at a party,

that's all I know.

I don't really know.

Something happened to me

that night, all right?

I just... A whole

bunch of missing time,

and I get these flashes, and...

I don't know, something is

pulling me towards the base.

I can't explain it, okay?

I just have to do it.

I do. And I can't

do it without you.

So, please,

can you just help me?

Please.

Please, help me.

Let's go.

Here.

It's close, but I think

you'll be good.

Take this for your walkie.

- You guys in?

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- I hear you.

Now watch out for them, man.

Don't let them do anything stupid.

No, I'll be fine.

All right. I'll be here.

All right,

guys, put on your masks.

All right.

Yeah. You see the Freon

pumping through the suits.

Good luck, man.

Thanks, man. Appreciate it.

I'll be here in the morning.

Right.

We'll see you then. Be safe.

I'm gonna head this way,

over that hill.

All right, guys, this is it.

Let's do it quickly.

Holy sh*t. We're doing it.

We're doing it. We're doing it.

Guys, this way.

Wait a minute.

Guys, there's a fence.

There's a fence.

Yeah, right there.

Straight ahead.

- You see it?

- Yeah.

Sh*t. It's coming up

all hot in the thermal camera.

I think it's electric.

It's on the way? Sh*t.

We gotta go that way.

You serious?

This fence goes all the way to the

right and all the way to the left.

We gotta find a way under it.

Let's keep looking.

Look for a low,

like, a ditch or something

like that.

Right here.

I think we can get under it.

All right, you're through.

- Nice, okay.

- Ready?

Stay low, Reid.

Am I clear?

Yeah. Just stay low.

Let's keep moving.

Let's go. Let's go.

Okay. Everyone, stop.

Everyone, stop.

You see that? The light.

It's a car, we're fine.

Look, they're just

driving along the road.

If we tripped their sensor,

they'd be on us.

Check the GPS.

Okay, it's this way.

Hey. Hey.

It's okay.

Just keep breathing.

Are you okay? Can you breathe?

Come on, let's go.

What are you doing?

Okay.

I think we'll be getting

close to the motion sensors.

About six miles from the base.

Jelena's right,

we're getting close.

Stop,

stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.

Twenty seconds, Stay there.

Stay there.

Reid.

I think I got it.

Come on. Come on.

Reid, 15.

Moving too fast.

- Reid, hurry.

- Five,

four, three, two, one.

All right.

I think I got it, guys.

Did you get it?

Yeah, I got it.

All right. All right,

let's keep moving, guys.

It's three miles that way.

Almost there.

Wait, guys.

Stop. Stop. Shh, shh.

You hear that? You hear that?

What is it?

Are those camo guys?

The camo.

You can tell.

That doesn't look like them...

Holy sh*t! It's a helicopter!

Get down! Get down! Get down!

Keep your head down.

They can't see us

in the thermal suits, okay?

Stay down! Stay down!

We're gonna be fine.

Jelena, keep your head down.

Stay low. Don't move.

There's a snake.

It's okay.

It won't hurt you.

Stay calm. It doesn't even

know you're here.

Is it gone?

It's going away.

It's going away.

Relax, relax. Try to breathe.

Just breathe.

You guys, the helicopter,

it's coming back.

All right, guys, stay down.

Be still, okay? Stay down.

We're not gonna get caught.

Stay low.

Look, they're just

doing a routine check.

It's a standard procedure.

God damn it.

See? They're gone.

Still, they definitely know

we're here.

No, it's a fly-over.

They would've flown down on us.

We're fine.

They do it all the time.

It's right over that ridge.

There it is. Look.

We f***ing did it.

- I told you we could do it.

- We made it.

We did it. We f***ing did it.

Reid, you were right.

I mean, this is

Area 51. This is the base.

Darrin, you getting this?

Yeah.

This is a huge area.

You see that area down there?

That's where we're going.

We gotta get down there

and ditch the suits.

There it is.

We made it.

I can't believe we did this.

You sure we're okay

without our suits?

Yeah, we should be fine.

They shouldn't have heat sensor

cameras this close to the base.
