Independence Day: Resurgence Page #3

God.

SH*T!

So.

You must the pilot China sent.

- Did the giant flag give it away?

- There's that.

In fact, I heard you speaking

Chinese earlier anyway

I was wondering if you

want to get a drink,

maybe fall in love.

- Aren't you a little young for that?

- I'm 23 and I have.

All personnel, report to

your stations immediately.

Arm the primary.

- Get me the Security Council.

- Yes, sir.

On screen.

- Sir.

- Yeah.

This just came in.

It was a spaceship.

Madam President, the heads

of state are coming online.

David, are you seeing this?

Yes, Madam President.

I'm looking right at it.

They could be initiating an attack.

We need to strike first.

Uh, hold on.

Hang on a second.

To my eye,

the design and technology

of this ship

is nothing like the ones

that attacked us.

I'm telling you

this is not them.

- And what if you're wrong?

- If you're wrong,

we could be starting a war

with a whole new species.

At this point, we know the

Saturn base has been destroyed.

Madam President, this could very

well be a coordinated attack.

- Get the cannon into firing position.

- Yes, sir.

We should be cautious

and listen to Director Levinson.

How does the rest

of the Council feel?

Let's hold off until

we know more.

We have to be decisive.

I vote to attack.

I also vote to strike.

Madam President,

I need an answer.

Take them out, Commander.

We are locked on.

I think this is a mistake.

Let's take another moment...

Fire!

Get me an image.

It crashed into

Van de Graaff crater.

We are not picking up

any signs of life.

Let's hope to god

we did the right thing.

Madam President, we need to send

a team up to investigate the wreckage.

We need to know who

we just shot down.

There's no sign of life and

the threat has been neutralized.

We can send a team up,

but David needs to be in DC.

No, oh.

Can we not make this political.

I need to get up there

and get answers.

David, you can lead a team up there,

but after the celebration.

You heard the President.

I'll expect to see you next to us

tomorrow wearing your best smile.

You want to see

my best smile?

CONNECTION TERMINATED.

Did he just

hang up on me?

Sure sounded that way to me, sir.

Where are you going?

Jake.

I really think you should

think this through.

Okay, everyone get out!

I'm taking off.

Wait wait wait...

Our Tug's not gonna fly.

That's why we're taking Mike's Tug.

Oh, Jiang is not

going to like this.

At approximately 2100 hours,

Earth Space Defense program

repelled an alien attack

targeting our planet.

It wasn't them.

- You can't know that for sure.

- It wasn't them.

- I have to tell the world.

- Sir, it's time for your meds.

I have to talk to the

Joint chiefs of Staff!

Matthew, can you just

give us a second, please.

You shouldn't be wasting your

time with a crazy old man.

You gave up flying

to take care of me

and I know how

much you loved it.

You should be with Jake.

He's on the moon, remember?

And then you should be

with the President.

I am with the President.

They are coming back.

And this time we won't

be able to stop them.

I will avenge you, brother.

Hey, wait wait wait.

I need a receipt!

So how do you

know this guy?

Oh.

He's Patricia Whitmore's fiance.

Thank you so much.

- Good job, Collins.

- Sir.

Someone called a cab?

- Thanks for doing this, Jake.

- No problem.

Let's get moving though

'cause I kinda stole this thing.

- I'm coming with you.

- Uh, you know.

This is an ESD operation.

Strictly off limits to

all civilians and warlords.

I let you in.

It would be wise for you

to return the favor.

There he goes.

Where's he going?

- Oh, I'm coming too.

- Catherine.

Look, something is

drawing him out there

and I'm going to

find out what.

Excuse me.

Uh, Director Levinson.

Where the heck do you

think you are going?

Why don't you join us, Floyd?

Everyone else is.

- Might do you some good.

- No. No no no.

You're not getting on that thing

and neither am I.

Okay, we're going to stay here.

And we're gonna...

Hi.

I've never been in a Space Tug before,

is there anything I should know?

There's a lot you should know.

Seat belt.

Obviously.

David, why don't you take a seat.

- Re-Really? In the...

- What's the matter? You nervous?

Uh.

You know, it's not my favourite.

Oh, don't worry.

I haven't crash in...

... a couple of days.

But that was intentional.

What?

Okay, here we go.

God.

I forgot how much I hate this.

- Bye!

- Bye.

That wasn't so bad.

I haven't kicked on

the fusion drive yet.

Huh?

And in our darkest moment,

when all hope was lost.

I said, "Never give up."

"You have to have faith."

And in that moment,

it came to me.

Pow!

Like a thunderbolt.

And that's when I came up with

the idea that saved the world.

Yeah.

Uh, sir?

- Huh?

- Ah, there he is.

Welcome back.

This book is a bargain!

It makes a great gift

for your grandchildren.

If you're lucky enough

to have any.

Are you ready to go, Mr. Trest.

Don't rush.

Dad, you awake?

I thought we could watch

the celebration on TV together.

Matthew!

What was that?

We're flying through the

old mother ship's debris field.

Don't worry.

These are basically space tanks.

Space tanks, huh.

Coming up to the

Van de Graaff crater.

There it is.

That's the crash site.

Today, we are honored to be

in the presence of some of the

brave men and women, who

defied insurmountable odds

and lead us to victory of our

alien invaders 2 decades ago.

General Grey and his

beautiful wife, Audrey.

We thank you for your

unwavering leadership.

Jackson.

Where the hell is Levinson?

So what are we looking for?

Well, I'm hoping

we'll know when we see it.

Is there a way of seeing

what they are seeing?

You can even talk to them.

Nice tattoos.

That's how many aliens

you killed, right?

So.

How did you do it?

You have to get

them from behind.

Catherine.

I think I just found

another one of your doodles.

Charlie.

Tell commander to prep

the lab at Area 51.

How's it looking out there,

Captain Hiller?

It's truly humbling to see how beautiful

Earth is from here, Madam President.

On this day, in 1996,

President Whitmore passionately declared,

"We will not go

quietly into the night!"

and we did not.

It's President Whitmore!

What a surprise.

Ladies and gentlemen,

another great war hero.

The one and only,

President Thomas Whitmore.

Please say a few words!

Today...

... I'm not going to.

I... came to warn you.

Dad?

Dad.

Help me.

That is definitely...

bigger than the last one.

Sh*t.

Hey, Charlie.

I think you better

come and get us.

The sooner the better.

- AS IN RIGHT NOW!

- I'm already on it.

Everybody strap in!

It's going to get bumpy!

Charlie, where the hell are you?

Flying through my worst nightmare.

David!

Grab my hand!

Come on!

Reach!

We're in, close the ram!

This just came in from

one of our lunar satellites.

The ship is more than

3,000 miles in diameter.

How the hell
