Echo, Fox 2.

Knight 7, Fox 2.

Come on. Come on.

They must have some kind of

protective shield over their hull.

Knights! Pull up!

Pull up!

Knight 3, pull up!

Controls are showing complete

failure of the stats.

Pull up!

(SCREAMING)

Blow through!

Blow through!

There's so

many of them!

(SCREAMING)

MAN:
They got

another one, sir.

Oh, no. You did not shoot

that green sh*t at me.

I've got you

covered, big daddy.

Damn. They got

shields, too.

(GROANS)

Let's go, Knights.

Move, Knights, move!

(SCREAMING)

Jesus.

MAN:
They got another one, sir.

Two more just went down.

They're dropping like flies.

MAN 2:
We're losing them.

All right. Get

them out of there.

MAN:
All right. Squadron leaders,

retreat to fallback positions.

Abort mission. Abort mission right away.

Do you read me?

MAN:
Do you copy?

We're going to have to make

a run for this one here.

Let's get low.

Let's get fast.

I got you, big daddy.

Let's get them.

STEVE:
Whoo!

Watch the deck.

(GRUNTS)

Do you read me, your postion?

Squadron Leader, do you read?

Abort! This isn't

happening fast enough.

Get them out of there!

(EXPLODING)

(EXPLODING)

MAN:
What's with the monitor?

Where's the picture?

We've lost the

satellite.

STEVE:
We got two R-6, Jimmy.

Check them.

Roger.

Come on, come on, come on, come on.

Move, move, move!

JIMMY:
He's on me like white

on rice, big daddy.

All right, Jimmy. They

ain't got nothing for us.

Let's push it. We gotta go!

We gotta go!

JIMMY:
I can't shake them.

I can't shake them.

STEVE:
Yes, you can. Just the

way I showed you. Let's go!

Check me out. Maybe I'm

going to try something.

Don't do nothing

stupid over there.

You know me. (GRUNTING)

That's what I'm talking about.

Jimmy! Jimmy, what are you doing?

You can't bank at that speed.

Jimmy, he's

closing on you!

(BEEPING)

(BREATHING HARDLY)

Put your mask back on!

That's an order, Marine!

I can't breathe!

Jimmy!

Jimmy!

(EXPLODING)

Jimmy! No!

MAN:
That's affirmative.

We have incoming.

MAN 1:
Let me have it, son.

MAN 2:
You got it.

Friendly?

Sergeant?

I don't think so.

Go! Go! Go! Go!

(MEN SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY)

(MEN SCREAMING)

(MAN SCREAMS)

STEVE:
Come on and get me!

Come and get me!

(GRUNTS) What are

you shooting at?

Where you at, baby?

Come on! Come on!

Ah! You can't hit nothing!

(ALARM BEEPING)

(GRUNTING EXCITEDLY)

Whoa! Low bridge!

STEVE:
Whoo!

See if you can fly

that thing undercover.

(STEVE LAUGHING)

Hope you got

an air bag.

STEVE:
Whoo!

(EXPLODING)

(SHIP CRASHING)

(THUDS)

(GRUNTING ANGRILY)

(GRUNTS, EXHALES)

Son of a b*tch.

(SCREAMING)

That's right!

That's right!

Get off of me!

Get off of me!

(SHOUTING) That's what you get!

(STEVE LAUGHING FAINTLY)

Look at you!

Ship all banged up!

Who's the man?

Who's the man?

Wait until I get

another plane!

I'm lining all your friends

up right beside you!

Where you at?

Where you at?

(GRUNTS)

(ALIEN ROARS)

(GRUNTS)

(GROANS)

Welcome to Earth.

Now, that's what I call

a close encounter.

(BOOMER PANTING HEAVILY)

Baby, stay right here. Stay

right here with Boomer.

Keys.

Come on. Keys.

Yes!

Come on, baby. Come on.

Come on.

MAN:
Rumor reports indicate that this battle

has repeated itself all over the world

with the exact

same results.

RUSELL:
You're just like your

mother, you know that?

She was stubborn too.

I had to twist her arm to get

her to take her medicine.

You're gonna

be all right.

You're gonna be fine.

RUSSELL:
You see, Troy? You're

feeling better already.

MIGUEL:
I couldn't find anything.

Everyone's packing up.

They're leaving.

They said there's a

spaceship heading this way.

We'd better leave

too, then.

Penicillin. At least, it'll

help you keep his fever down.

Thank you.

It's really nice

of you to help us.

I wish I could do more,

but we're moving out.

I'm going with you.

(STAMMERING)

Well, I just mean

that we're going too.

Cool.

RUSSELL:
Tell that punk to shut the door.

We're out of here.

He can sniff around

somewhere else.

Bye.

Bye.

(DAVID GROANING SOFTLY)

It's Air Force One,

for crying out loud.

Still he gets sick.

Oh, boy.

I don't feel so good.

Look at me?

Like a rock.

Could be bad weather,

could be good weather.

Doesn't matter.

We could go up,

we could go down.

We could go back, we could go

forwards, we could go side to side...

(DAVID GROANS)

What did I say?

(MUMBLING)

CONNIE:
He still gets airsick?

Yeah.

Julius, with all

of this, I...

I didn't get a chance

to thank you two.

All he could think of

was getting to you.

There's still love

there, I think.

Love was never

a problem.

All you need is love.

John Lennon. Smart man.

Shot in the

back, very sad.

GREY:
We've moved as many of our forces

away from our bases as possible.

But we've already

sustained heavy losses.

ALBERT:
I spoke with the joint chiefs

when they arrived at NORAD.

They agree we must launch a counter

offensive with a full nuclear strike.

Over American soil?

You're saying at this point we should

sacrifice more innocent American civilians?

Is that right?

Sir, if we don't strike soon, there may

not be much of an America left to defend!

Sir! They've

taken out NORAD!

GREY:
What?

MAN:
It's gone, sir.

My God!

The vice president?

The joint chiefs?

Mr. President.

We must launch.

ALBERT:
A delay now would

be more costly than...

when you waited to

evacuate the cities.

DAVID:
No, no. You're not

gonna launch nuclear weapons!

You're gonna kill them

and us at the same time.

If we fire nukes...

then everybody else who's got them, is gonna fire them.

Sir, may I remind you...

that you are a guest here? You

know what that means? Fallout!

You ever hear of

nuclear winter?

It's the end of life as we know it.

David, you can't interfere with the conversation.

Do you hear what they're talking about?

I know, I know.

Don't even think about it!

Just go.

I don't have to go.

You have to leave.

It can't be allowed!

Shut up! Captain, get

him out of here!

Hey, hey, don't tell

him to shut up!

You'd all be dead now, if
