Permission granted.

Detonation sequence initiated.

Tell... Patty...

I... love... her...

I love you too.

In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Command, it's a negative impact!

The blasts are contained

by an energy shield!

Repeat...

The blasts... contained... by an energy shield...

We lost the signal, sir.

Wait.

Something's happening.

SYSTEM OFFLINE:

She baited us.

Tanner, we have to

have a status report.

We're trying.

Our satellites are down.

We're completely blind.

Madam President!

There will be no peace.

Careful!

You'll agitate the crystals.

I built it back in '94.

Had to shelf it though after

the meltdown in Sector 3.

- Here. Put it over here.

- Brakish, you're overexerting yourself.

What is that thing doing here?

Alright. Be a good boy,

go stand over there.

Wait a second.

What meltdown?

Are we sure this thing

is safe to use?

Highly unlikely.

Clear!

What's the status of the fleet?

Only 7% made it back to base, sir.

- 7%!

- Yes, sir.

General.

Cheyenne Mountain is gone.

All members of the presidential

line up succession are presumed dead.

They're here to swear you in, sir.

Attention to orders!

Please repeat after me.

- I, Joshua T. Adams.

- I, Joshua T. Adams.

- Do solemnly swear.

- Do solemnly swear.

I'm so sorry.

You are right.

We're not going to

beat them this time.

God, look at the line.

It's like a thousand cars.

We're never going to get gas.

Have a little faith.

You want to talk about faith?

My parents are probably

dead right now.

And most of my friends...

She's upset because her boyfriend,

Kyle, is for sure a goner.

What's a goner?

- Someone who is dead.

- Felix.

Why don't you pull over here.

Let me drive and

you take a little break.

Okay.

David, you should be

in the command center.

President Whitmore,

thank god you're okay.

It's been a while.

I had 20 years

to get us ready.

And we never had a chance.

We didn't last time, either.

We always knew they

were coming back.

But look how far we've come.

In the last 20 years,

this planet has been unified in a way

that's unprecedented in human history.

That's sacred.

That's worth fighting for.

We convinced an entire generation

that this is a battle we could win.

And they believed us.

We can't let them down.

It wasn't luck last time.

It was our resolve.

We all have to fight

till our last breath.

And that is going to

lead us to victory.

You understand some of their language.

I like you to tell me if

any of these writings

mean anything to you.

So okay,

how about this one.

This talks about an

intergalactic war.

This concerns the whole universe.

What about this one?

Something about an enemy.

That needs to be destroyed

before it gets to us.

Wait.

I had a case study in Brazil,

where my patient didn't

describe the circle as sphere.

He refereed to it

as "enemy".

Of course.

Their enemy is our ally.

Uh.

Your laser's smoking.

Oh oh.

Get it out of here.

Tell them to try and

pull it open.

Hello, gorgeous.

Time to find out what

secrets you're hiding.

Alright, let's go get everyone.

Bring them here.

Yes, sir.

Watch your back!

Scopio!

Go in front of the guy.

They are coming out!

Jake, get out of the way!

Guys.

You really need to see this.

I've run every possible scan.

It's not giving off any kind of signal.

I mean nothing.

It's like it doesn't even exist.

It looks like

it's trying to hide itself.

- It's really smooth.

- Hey. Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

You're not wearing gloves,

you'll contaminate it!

Remove your hands, Floyd.

That's weird.

- I can't.

- What do you mean you can't, Rosenberg?

Okay.

I'm trapped.

Somebody do something,

it's swallowing me.

Just stay calm and don't panic.

This thing is trying to eat me,

your advice is not to panic?

ENEMY DETECTED:

ENEMY DETECTED:

It looks like they're mobilizing.

David, please tell me this isn't

some kind of a Trojan horse.

I don't think it's a danger to us,

but it must be to them.

He turned it on

just by touching it.

I activated myself when I

detected your biological signature

to be different from theirs.

It speaks, ha,

in English.

I deconstructed your primitive language.

- We're-We're primitive?

- Correct.

My species shared our biological existence

for a virtual one thousands of years ago.

Far out.

Why are you here?

When I intercepted

their distress call,

I knew they would come

to exterminate you.

I came to evacuate as

many of you as possible.

But you attacked me with the

same weapons that they used on us.

- They attacked you?

- Correct.

A harvester ship conquered our planet

and extracted it's molten core.

They used them to refuel their

ships and grow their technology.

They've done this

to countless civilizations.

We fought them for

thousands of years.

But they destroyed

all of our ships.

I, am the sole survivor.

I am so sorry to hear that.

Do you have a plan?

My system holds the key

to superior technology.

And there is a hidden planet

where I teach refugees

from other fallen worlds how to

build weapons that will defeat them

- once and for all.

- That's why they're afraid of you.

You're the only ones who

threaten their existence.

Correct.

But now that I'm activated,

the queen will detect my signature

and hunt me down.

It's too late.

She's already on her way.

Yeah.

She's coming.

And what would happen if...

if we're able to kill her.

No one has ever killed

a harvester queen.

That's encouraging.

But as a hive,

her fighters will fall

and her ship will leave your planet,

recalled by other harvester queens.

But it's too late now.

You must terminate me or

she will get the coordinates

to the refugee planet.

And that will be the end.

Wait-Wait a second.

Wait a second.

If we are so sure that she's

coming here to get you.

Maybe.

We can bait her...

like she baited us.

Mr. President, Dr. Okun

thinks that we can

- replicate the sphere's RF radiation signal.

- David, English please.

Every computer has a radioactive signature,

whether it's your laptop,

you phone, even your watch.

But the sphere has a RFR

that's completely off the charts.

So, if we hide the real sphere

inside the isolation chamber,

and pack this decoy transmitter

so to speak, onto a Tug

filled with cold-fusion bombs

and lure her out to the salt flats.

We can fly right up her

royal ass and bon voyage!

You set off cold-fusion bombs,

you're gonna kill everyone

from here to Houston.

Not if we use the shield generators

from this base to contain the blast.

Without our shields, you better put

a blaster in every able-bodied hand.

- And get them ready

to shoot some aliens.

- Yes, sir.

Now, we just need a way to...

see her coming.

Follow me.

- Do your thing.

- My thing.

My thing.

My thing.

- Take it off!

- Copy, sir.

Watch it.

This old radar truck was suppose

to go to the Smithsonian.

- They never picked it up.

- It's a good thing they didn't.

Yeah, drive it to the highest point.

The higher the better.
