They have guns.

- Those are your friends?

Estarn bien.

Slo tenemos que llegar

He said that we're safe.

Why do they have guns?

They ask that?

He said that we have to hurry

because the daylight's going.

Shh!

Est bien, est bien. Era una vaca.

- What did he say?

- He said it was just the cows.

It's the cows.

Of course.

- No. No?

- S.

How far is

the wall from here?

- Like driving?

- Hour and a half.

On the other side... right on the other side

of that wall is America?

- Yes.

- So we're very close.

- Very close.

- We go... what? ...early morning?

No, we're waiting

for another family.

- Another family?

- Then we'll go to the wall together.

I think

American government

are spending

a lot of money...

- But you can't fight nature.

- No, sadly.

Barriendo su casa.

Yeah, it's like we're

imprisoning ourselves.

- Es su casa, no? No problem.

- Yeah.

Have you guys seen

one of the creatures?

Have you ever seen it

with your own eyes?

A creature? A live one?

- En Tepoztln.

- Poco ms.

- More than 100 meters?

- Ms de 100 metros.

- Wow.

Do you feel safe

staying here?

S, in the high grounds

you know you're safe.

In the rivers

you are not safe.

If you don't bother them,

they don't bother you.

When the American planes come,

the creatures... very mad.

You know,

como los animales.

You know,

crazy crazy animals,

they very very dangerous.

Do the planes...

do they come around here?

Viste aviones? S?

Los que traen

bombas y qumicos?

The smell...

chemical poison.

Oh, you can smell it?

- Smell it.

- Well, do they...

- do they drop chemical weapons?

- Yes.

Why do they bomb here with chemicals?

Because there are many

extraterrestrials

in the trees.

What do you mean

there's extraterrestrials in the trees?

All the trees are infected.

What... what do you mean

the trees are infected?

You want to see it?

Miren.

What is that?

- What is that?

- Look, it echoes back.

That is wild.

- No pasa nada.

- Qu es?

- It's okay.

- No no no, qu es?

I don't think we should

be touching it.

So this is the infection?

- Why in the trees?

- They grow up and go to the river

- until the ocean.

- And then what?

Se reproducen.

Se reproducen en el mar

y regresan.

- They come back.

- So they lay their eggs in the trees

where they grow

and then they return to the rivers?

Exacto. S.

I guess that's what

they mean by "infected zone."

Let's go back.

...en el rea. Pueden ser ms.

Los mantendremos informados.

How's your hand?

Let's take off

the bandage,

let it breathe

a little bit.

It's a lot better now

without all that weight.

What do you mean?

The ring.

- Does that hurt?

- Yeah, I wouldn't push it too far.

Thanks.

Hey, no problem.

You need to...

you need to move it around.

No, I mean "Thanks."

Yeah.

You're welcome.

I'm sorry about

the other night.

It's okay.

I was drunk.

I'm sorry.

I just don't want you

to think of me like that

when you think of me.

It's okay.

It's okay.

You don't have to do it perfect.

Well, we'll be home in the morning.

That's gonna feel nice.

It's too tight.

It's still too tight.

We should probably

get some sleep.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Adelante. Me copias?

- Where are we going?

- We have to go now!

- That family... they're in trouble!

- Where's my camera?

Vmonos vmonos!

Where's my camera?

- Where's my camera?

- Let's go!

- What are we doing? Why have we stopped?

- Por qu paramos?

- Shh! Callados!

- What?

- Abajo.

- What?

Pnganse listos, eh?

- Up here.

- What's going on?

- Por qu paramos?

- Be quiet. Be quiet. Be quiet.

- Shh!

- What is that?

Pnganse las mscaras.

Why are you putting

on the gas mask?

Why are you

putting on the gas mask?

Can we have a gas mask?

Can we have one gas mask?

Vmonos. Muvete, cabrn. Muvete!

Listos?

Estamos jodidos.

Whoa. Whoa whoa,

where are you going?

- Where are you going?!

- Por favor, salgan todos.

Disprale. Disprale!

Get down, Sam.

Sam. Sam, stay down.

Oh f***.

- Kaulder.

- Shh!

Kaulder!

Hang on.

F***.

That's not good.

Hello?

Oh my God.

Kaulder!

Oh f***.

Kaulder!

Wait!

Sam, it's gonna

get dark soon.

We've gotta keep going.

Sam.

Well, I have to pee.

Do you mind?

Ah.

Look at this.

What did

you find, Cortez?

Oh my God.

That's the biggest man-made

structure I've ever seen.

It's like the Seventh Wonder.

God, it's huge.

I thought I'd be

a lot happier to see it.

I feel like I could cry,

but I don't know

if it would be

a happy cry or a sad cry.

It's different looking at America

from the outside...

in.

You know, just sitting

right outside

and looking in.

You know,

when you get home

it's so easy

to forget all this.

I mean, tomorrow we'll be back

to our separate lives

in our, like,

perfect suburban homes.

You know, everything that

we've been through...

it won't matter anymore.

How old do you think

that girl was?

Four?

Five years old?

Let's talk

about something else.

Something funny.

You know how

people laugh different,

depending on

who they're around?

Or like when you were little

you'd practice laughing?

- And you pretend...

- No.

You practiced laughing?

You never did that?

- Practiced laughing?

- Yeah.

Well, we've got a long walk

ahead of us in the morning.

You should probably

get some sleep.

I'm gonna stay awake

and keep a lookout.

This'll probably be the most amazing place

you've ever slept.

There's not a light for miles.

I just hope

the clouds break.

Oh, sure, sometimes.

I don't see him that often.

- How come?

- He lives with his mother

and she's married now.

But you're still his father.

Yeah, but he doesn't

know that.

Doesn't that bother you?

It's just easier that way.

I don't want

to confuse him.

There's no one in here

and the power's off.

Hello?

What happened here?

I don't know.

If you ask me,

this looks like an air strike.

All these people's homes,

but where are the people?

Do you think

anybody's under here?

I feel like if there was anybody here,

we'd smell 'em.

Let's just keep going.

There's gotta be

somebody somewhere.

Are you sure

it's dead?

Yeah, it's dead.

Stay here.

Hello?

Don't come in here, Sam!

What are you doing?

I'm just taking a picture.

Gareth Edwards

Sir Gareth Owen Edwards, CBE (born 12 July 1947) is a Welsh former rugby union player who played scrum-half and has been described by the BBC as "arguably the greatest player ever to don a Welsh jersey".In 2003, in a poll of international rugby players conducted by Rugby World magazine, Edwards was declared the greatest player of all time. In 2007, former England captain Will Carling published his list of the '50 Greatest Rugby players' in The Daily Telegraph, and ranked Edwards the greatest player ever, stating; "He was a supreme athlete with supreme skills, the complete package. He played in the 1970s, but, if he played now, he would still be the best. He was outstanding at running, passing, kicking and reading the game. He sits astride the whole of rugby as the ultimate athlete on the pitch".Edwards was prominent in the Welsh national team that was to the fore in European rugby in the '60s and '70s. He is one of a small group of Welsh players to have won three Grand Slams including Ryan Jones, Adam Jones, Gethin Jenkins, Gerald Davies and J. P. R. Williams.In the 2007 New Year Honours, Edwards became a CBE for services to sport. He was knighted in the Queen's Birthday Honours of 2015, for services to sport and for charitable services. more…
