- Attack sir?

- Yes! You wanted an order! That's an order!

Let's go!

- Are the weapons ready?

Sir they've killed everything that's fired on them!

Get the guns online and we ram this thing!

They killed my brother and every man on his ship.

- We have no weapons to attack with sir.

That's a collision course!

Sir, there are sailors in the water!

Get the guns online and we're gonna ram this thing!

Why aren't they attacking?

- Would you please shut up!

We need help.

- Hopper.

- Yo are you kidding me? Hopper's running the ship?

- This is bullshit! We're all gonna die!

What the hell are those things!?

What is that thing!?

- You got anything

- Negative on all frequencies.

Oh sh*t!

We're going down!

Sir, I can't explain this.

We've lost communication with everyone

on the otherside of the barrier.

We can't get in and they can't get out.

The field, whatever it is, it extends

about 300,000 feet in altitude

and has depth of about 2 nautical miles.

And we are in contact with Admiral Shane of the Pacific fleet

but right now our navy is effectively trapped outside the area.

So we have nobody in there?

Well sir, we have 3 guided missile

destroyers still unaccounted for.

So it's conceivable we do have somebody inside.

Well who?

Captain! Captain!

They need help!

I must help them!

Are you OK? Are you OK?

My grandmother could climb this mountain.

It's a start Mick.

- What was that?

- I'm not sure.

What are you guys doing up here?

I need you to get off this mountain right now.

Wait, what's going on? Why?

- The island's under attack.

- Attack, by who?

I don't know. People are using the word "alien".

- Aliens?

We don't know. Whatever it is took out the Marine base

and all roads leading to this mountain have been destroyed.

Cellphones, radio, internet. Everything is shut down.

The Navy's engaged just off from the coast.

- The Navy?

- I need you and your friend off of this mountain right now.

Come on, let's go!

Vic, leave your car here. It'll block the road.

Where you going?

Mick! Where are you going?

- I ain't ever seen an alien.

Have you ever seen an alien?

- Mick!

Don't leave me alone.

Woah sole! What the hell was that?

Hey Fizz, did you see that?

- Looked like a jet.

- Well I ain't never...

Sir, we need you.

- We need you now.

- I can't.

If you can't? Who can?

Captain.

Where did we find it?

One of their transporters must have crashed over the island.

There was debris everywhere. Thomas and Potts

just fished him right outta the water with a grappling hook.

Look I told them it was a bad idea, but they

kept yanking and i kept telling them no...

Oh damn!

Beast flashlight.

My dad said they'ld come.

He said it my whole life.

He said we ain't alone.

He said one day we'll find them or they'll find us.

Know what else he said?

He said...

"I hope I ain't around when that day comes."

That is not dead!

It's not dead!

- I've got a bad feeling about this.

- What bad feeling?

Like "we're gonna need a new planet" kind of bad feeling.

Medical casualty. C-53 2 men down

It's still on the ship.

Lock down the ship!

- Is everyone alright?

- We're good!

Is everyone accounted for?

Just heard something on level 4.

Raikes, up.

Move! Move!

- What do you see?

- Do you see it?

- No sir!

- I've got nothing sir!

- How is he?

- Not good sir! Not good!

- You two, get him to medical now!

- Yes sir!

Raikes, you're with me! Let's go!

Get outta here!

Yo! Hey!

Raikes! Get your ass to CIC!

Now!

Come on!

Raikes, you better be there!

Come on, come on.
