That's what our prisoner alien

meant by...

"She is all."

Director Levinson, I have Cheyenne Mountain

and the remaining world leaders online.

- David, what can you tell us?

- Ma'am.

They are like a hive and I think

we've just found their queen.

Their... very big queen.

This is an infrared image

of their ship

and we think that's her,

Madam President.

- Right there in the middle.

- Christ almighty.

General Adams, we have a live feed

from our reconnaissance aircraft.

- Great. Put it up.

- Yes, sir.

David, is this one of their plasma drills

you briefed us about?

Yeah, I believe so.

The funnel is over

a mile in diameter, sir.

That's 20 times bigger

than the one in Africa.

I think they're after

our molten core.

Which means no magnetic fields.

Our atmosphere evaporate basically

the end of life on this planet.

Oh, so you are saying

we're already finished.

Not necessarily.

Back in '96,

the drilling in Africa stops when

we blew up their mother ship.

There must be a queen up

there that we didn't know about.

Assuming this hive theory holds true.

General, if we could blow up this

queen, maybe it could work again.

Alright then. I'm authorizing

an immediate retaliatory strike.

Let's do it.

- Scramble the fighters.

- Right away.

- Go get them.

- Attention. All pilots report to

mission briefing in T minus 10.

I repeat. All pilots report to

mission briefing in T minus 10.

Hey.

Come find me after

the briefing, okay?

Suit up, boys.

I'm so sorry, Dylan.

I was right there, man.

I couldn't save her.

It's too late.

Look. I know I am

probably the last person

you want to hear

from right now.

But I've been where you are.

And I know how

deep it hurts.

She wouldn't want

you to give up now.

Come on, man,

you got to lead us.

See you up there, Lieutenant.

Good afternoon.

This red mass on

top of the ship,

that's your target.

We're gonna send a fleet of

drones to go ahead of you

and disable their shields.

You mission,

is to fly cover

for the bombers who will be

armed with cold-fusion warheads.

Now, the blast should

penetrate the hull

and kill that alien queen.

Captain Hiller will brief

you on the flight plan.

We'll all try to converge

at the same time.

But whoever gets to the target first,

will deliver the payload.

We have to expect

that they're going to

come at us with

everything they got.

So protect the bombers

at all cost.

We all lost someone

that we loved.

So let's do it for them.

Alpha strike launch in 1 minute.

Jake.

I'm coming back.

I promise.

Make them pay.

I'm not going out there

to make friends, right?

I looked at the houses.

The one on Harrison Street,

with the stone walkway.

If it's still there.

Okay.

It's getting real.

It's getting real, real.

Alright, form up.

On me.

It's the 4th of July.

So show them some fireworks.

I want you to give me

one of your katana blades

and teach me everything you know.

Fine.

You know what?

I'll figure something out.

What are you idiots doing?

The world's going to an end.

- Even worse, we lost the gold.

- Mm-hm.

So we thought

we drink a little!

US government is on the line.

They say the aliens are

drilling to the Earth's core

and they are looking for a ship in

the area to monitor their progress.

We're the only ones left.

Tell them we'll do it,

for a hundred million dollars.

Look at this guy.

Weee.

Yeah, hold on a second.

He's drunk.

They say it's a deal.

Come on.

I know.

I got it. I got it.

Look, Sam.

They are going off road.

Maybe we should do the same.

Dear god!

Ouch. Ouch.

- What the hell happened here?

- We rescued you.

Oh, thank you.

Is this really you?

Well, of course it's me.

Who else would it be?

- What's your son like?

- Can you get us his autograph?

How often do you see him?

These days we only see each other

at Thanksgiving but unfortunately...

unless he had to cancel.

What about you?

Where are your parents?

Um.

Visiting our grandparents in Florida.

Oh, I see.

Where should we go, Mr. Levinson?

I think the safest place for

all of us to be right now

is by my David.

Since you're the leading

expert in this condition,

I really want you to see this.

How can his connection

be so strong?

During the first attack,

he was exposed

to their collective mind.

It was completely unfiltered.

- I need to ask him about this.

- I already have.

He doesn't even

remember drawing them.

Okay.

Let's try this baby on for size.

You know, I helped bring

that thing back from space.

- Is there anything I can do?

- Yeah.

Back off.

Yeah.

Of course.

Command, we have visual.

Roger, Captain Hiller.

Continue approach.

Mission is a go.

Bay 18, sir.

Why did you put it

all the way up there?

Give me that.

Get the ladder down there, come on.

You couldn't leave it

on the bottom shelf?

Here we go.

Alright.

I'm coming for you, baby.

There she is.

What is it?

An alien laser?

Nope.

That's the Okun laser.

- Why aren't they attacking us?

- Becareful what you wished for.

There's the queen ship.

Bombers, prepare to drop!

You just had to jinx us!

Bank right!

Bank right!

Evade!

Evade!

God!

Evade!

Evade!

It's too hot, sir!

Squad, pull out!

Bank right.

Maintain defensive posture.

Get down!

Down! Down!

Protect the bombers.

Dive! Dive!

Command, the queen ship

is too heavily defended.

We have to regroup

and find a new approach.

We have incoming!

- Damn, they're fast!

- Jesus, look at their fire power.

Keep all your bombers close!

There's too many of them!

Break left.

Bank right!

Oh yeah, I got you now.

I got you.

I got you.

Wow!

I can't shake him.

Son of a b*tch!

Uh, come on.

Help me out here.

I got you.

Dylan, that's me, 12 o'clock.

Come on.

Come on.

Bank left!

God!

- You can thank me later.

- I'll thank you right now.

We just lost bomber 9

and bomber 13, sir.

Command, we can't get

to the top of the ship.

It's to heavily armed.

We're dropping like flies out here.

Come on!

I think we need

to fly inside.

- No, that's suicide. Sir.

- Damn it.

Morrison's right.

This is our only shot!

Do it.

We'll detonate the bombs

from the command center

and we'll give you enough time

to get the hell out of there.

Copy that.

Jake, follow my lead.

I'm on your wing.

All bombers, we're going in.

They didn't follow us.

Let's form up on the leads.

Charlie, look at those fields down there.

They have their own ecosystem.

Dad. Dad.

Hey, it's me.

You have to warn them.

She knows that they are coming.

We got eyes on the target, tally-ho.

That's what we came here for.

All bombers, open bomb bay doors.

Get them out of there.

It's a trap.

Come on, no!

Command, I have engine failure!

We have engine failure!

Attempt to restart!

We're going down!

We're going down!

I can't restart.

Come on!

We lost all power.

Command, you have to trigger the bomb!

It's the only way!

- Don't let us die for nothing!

- Do it!

Madam President, requesting authorization.
