Ten...
...nine, eight...
...seven, six...
...five, four...
...three, two...
...one.
Dr. Serizawa?
Jerry Boyd. I'm warning you, it's a mess.
It's just a total mess.
Monarch sent me in this morning.
Took a look around,
but I told them we needed you.
They picked up a radiation pocket
out here last month.
They got excited, thinking
they had a uranium deposit.
the heavy machinery and then...
Well, the valley floor...
...collapsed into a cavern below.
Just dropped away. Just gone.
about 40 miners went down with it.
This way.
When they first discovered this pocket, the
radiation levels were only half as strong.
It's almost as if contact
with the outside air...
...started catalyzing something.
Some kind of fossils, right?
I've been digging holes for 30 years,
I've never seen anything like it.
Oh, my God. Is it possible?
Is it him?
No.
This is much older.
Hey, guys. You gotta see this.
What is it?
Some kind of egg?
A dormant spore?
The bones are fossilized...
...but this formation seems to be
perfectly preserved.
This one looks broken.
It's like something...
...came out of it.
I'll get it. It's probably for me.
No, Takashi.
No. Takashi, just listen to me
for a second.
I'm asking for the meeting because
if I have to shut the reactor down...
...you're not gonna want to
read about it in a memo.
I've been following these tremors
since they started in the Philippines...
...and now they're in our own backyard.
No, no, no. Hayato says...
...l need to go through you about this.
Look, I'm just...
...trying to follow the protocols set forth
by the company. That's all. It's my job.
He's awake.
Oh, I know. He got up early.
What are we gonna do?
Get dressed. I'll figure it out.
"Okay?
"Okay
Later, Dad.
With all due respect, Takashi, and honor...
...respect and honor, with all of that...
...I'm an engineer. I don't like
unexplained frequency patterning...
...near a plant where I'm responsible.
I need a meeting. Make it happen.
Bye, Mom!
He made you a sign.
- What?
- Your birthday sign.
- He worked so hard.
- Oh, God.
I'm gonna come home early.
I'll take the car and pick him up...
...and we can get a proper cake. Okay?
Listen, I need to know...
...that it's not the sensors. Okay?
I can't be calling this meeting
and look like the American maniac.
So when we get there...
...don't even bother coming up.
Just grab a team and go down to Level 5.
You're not a maniac.
I mean, you are, just not about this.
Must be something we're not thinking of.
Happy birthday.
What? Is it--?
- Yes, it is. Ha, ha.
- Happy birthday.
- Thank you.
I should have a birthday more often.
Ha, ha.
JOE". What is this?
MAN". Seismic anomaly.
This graph is minutes.
X is minutes, not days. This is now.
Wait, hold on. Seismic activity?
Seismic?
You're talking about earthquakes?
No, earthquakes are random, jagged.
This is consistent, increasing.
This is a pattern.
All right. Let's make this quick.
Takashi. What the hell is going on?
Have you seen this?
Yeah. Maybe not such...
...good time for a meeting.
What's the source?
Where's the epicenter?
We don't know. But
It's gotta be centered somewhere.
Hayato.
No one else is reporting it.
We are contacting every other plant
in the Kanto region.
Tokai, Fujiyama.
They're unaffected.
But my guess is these readings are just
aftershocks from the Philippine earthquake.
Are we at full function?
Yes, we are.
drawing down, to be safe.
Take us offline.
- Now, Joe--
Do it!
Now. Wind it down.
Sandra.
Sandra, are you there?
We're turning back.
Let's go.
Oh, my God.
Joe, are you there?
Joe, there's been a breach.
We're heading back to the containment seal.
Listen. You need to get out of there.
If there's been a reactor breach,
you won't last five minutes...
...with or without the suits.
Do you hear me?
I hear you. We're coming!
I'll meet them there myself.
Put the safety doors on manual override.
I cannot do that!
Keep the doors open.
My wife is still in there!
Come on...
...let's go!
Tell me this door's...
...on manual.
Yeah. But we are starting to breach!
I'm here.
Soon as they're through, I'll seal it.
Sandra, can you...
...hear me? I'm at the door.
Sandra?
Sandra, I'm waiting for you.
I'm at the checkpoint.
But you have to run as fast as you can.
I am!
Kenji. Kenji...
...we need to go!
Joe!
Close the door!
Seal the corridor
or the whole city will be exposed.
Sandra?
- Joe? Joe, can you hear me?
- Yes.
- Are you there?
- Sandra, I'm here. Can you hear me?
Yeah.
Joe, it's too late. We're not coming.
No, don't say that! Don't you say that!
Run as hard as you can, honey.
Joe, you have to close the door.
You have to live for our son.
- Joe, seal the door! Now!
- Oh, my God.
Five seconds! Four seconds!
I'm sorry.
Take care of Ford.
Be a good father.
I Will.
We didn't make it.
Let's go out!
Hurry! Come on! Ford!
On your feet!
You got family waiting for you?
I hope so.
How long you been away?
Fourteen months.
Take it slow.
It's the one thing they
don't train you for.
All right! Let's go!
- I can't tell you.
- Can I see it?
Don't let him see.
Whoa. Oh, my God.
- It's a welcome home cake.
- Look at that.
That's you.
- And that's me.
- What's it say?
"Welcome home, Daddy."
Daddy's home.
- Daddy's home.
- Cake every night.
- Yeah, that's not happening.
- Daddy's home equals...
...cake every night.
How did you manage to get chocolate
on your eyeball?
- Daddy did it.
- Heh.
I can't sleep with you...
- ...making all this noise.
- Hee-hee-hee.
Come on, let's get you into bed.
Okay, big man.
Time to hit the rack.
Dad?
Yeah?
Are you still gonna be here tomorrow?
Yeah.
Come on, let's get some sleep.
Turns around, nose-to-nose,
he says, "At ease, lieutenant."
God, I missed your laugh.
I missed you.
Mm-mm.
- I should get that. No, it could be work.
- Mm-mm.
- I need to get that.
- You don't need to. Come on.
Hello?
Yeah, this is Mrs. Brody.
Tell him you're busy tending to
your husband's needs.
Shh.
Yeah, he's my husband.
Tell them we're not gonna buy it.
Yes, sir. Could you
just hold on one moment?
It's the consulate.
Joe's been arrested in Japan.
Elle, I can't find my pants.
They're in the other drawer.
So why was he trespassing
in the quarantine zone?
Ugh. Why do you think?
The lone crusader for the truth.
All his crackpot cuckoo theories.
Your father is a good man.
He just needs your help right now.
Ford, he's lost everything.
Yeah, so did I. But you know what?
I got over it.
Right. I can see that.
I'm sorry. It's just...
Every time I let him in close,
he always tries to drag me back.
And I can't. I can't put our family
through that.
Well, he is your family.
Hey. Come here.
You know you're only gonna be gone
for a few days, right?
