We gotta get one of these within

a hundred meters.

Angel, you know the island.

Any other way to get to that emitter?

Um, on the north side there's a trail,

uh, if I can find it.

Okay, good. You two go that way.

I'll approach from the valley floor. South.

Gives us two opportunities.

1600 is dropdead time for activation.

Gives us approximately one hour. Got it.

This is it. Let's get it done. NNo worries.

How's she doing? Sleeping.

Go kill red eyes. Yeah, kill red eyes.

Take good care of her.

Hey. What are you doing?

I'm driving. NNo, you're not. Get out.

That doesn't make any sense. Yes, it does.

I'm in charge. I decide.

You can't drive and shoot at the same time,

can you?

Good point. Get in.

What's the matter?

Mule's missing.

Taggart.

Captain Waters!

Captain Waters, I know you're here.

Talk to me.

Captain Waters.

Oh, my God.

I'm, I'm, I'm not your enemy.

I don't understand.

Bring out Captain Waters.

We can communicate through him.

I believe you want to understand me.

You must stop this chaos now.

We could be friends.

Yes. Yes. That's it. Friendship.

Communication.

Yes. You understand me, don't you?

We understand each other.

You understand us.

We're gonna die, you know that?

So why in God's name are you humming?

Sergeant Ricky Blatnikoff of EchoTango

One is about to stick it to alien bloody invaders.

NNobody in my family ever did sweet F.A.

and here I am about to defend the entire planet.

NNah. You really are mental.

That's just a nickname.

Guess they didn't come in peace.

So the missile hones in on this radio

beacon thing. What if they jam it?

We're screwed. They claim they're jamproof.

But they're made in China, so.

E.T., bugger off.

What are you looking at, ugly little mongrel

bloody thing? You should have taken the hint.

We got the bastard.

The bastard's got us, you d*ckhead.

I saved your damn life.

Yeah, and stuff the damn planet.

I told 'em,

I told the brass we needed real equipment.

Rocket launchers, EMPs,

bunker busters, fragmentation mines.

And do they appreciate my foresight

and preparation?

Oh, no. Wankers wouldn't even give me

one little suitcase nuke.

I can't imagine why.

I'm activating the beacon.

We're gonna need to get out of here real quick.

Okay. I'm arming it. Keep your eyes pealed.

Got about four minutes.

Steve, three minutes!

Al?

Steve. You gotta get outta here. Al?

Steve. Two minutes.

You gotta leave me.

I can't move my legs. I won't make it.

I'll guard the beacon. Go. Go!

Give 'em hell.

Good. Company.

Ten seconds!

Get down!

Hey, ugly. Incoming.

There, you beauty! Tea and medals!

Red eye's gone! Red eye's gone.

All right? Yeah.

It worked.

We got 'em? We got 'em.

For God so loved the world,

that he gave his only begotten son that

whoever believe within him should not perish

but have everlasting life. Amen.

Amen.

Absent friends.

Steve. I have to know. How much was real?

He wanted to talk about children.

Was that a lie?

NNo. He loved you. And he wanted kids.

ids and a farm.

To grow grapes? Grapes.

illed the aliens and saved the Earth.

Red eye's gone. Home. Sleep.

I should have trusted you.

I should have listened.

I'm sorry. I feel like crap. You should.

They're still out there somewhere, aren't they?

That's a pretty good bet.

You gonna keep looking for 'em?

Oh, I do whatever they tell me to do.

But right now they told me to

take thirty days leave.

You got any plans?

Oh, sleep for about a week

and then some quality vacation time.

Where you goin'? NNowhere hot.

You like snow? Yeah. I love snow.

Good.
