Chemical wea...

Is this a joke?

Miss, uh, doomsday scenarios are

nothing new to this office.

Russia's getting squirrely

with her nukes.

ISIS may or may not be

acquiring a dirty bomb.

North Korea...

Well, forget about North Korea.

But your scenario...

Let's just call it what it is,

it's fantasy.

Hellstorm weapons,

resonance weapons.

This isn't fantasy, it's fact.

I have seen it.

Yes, I've read your report,

I think we all have.

Resonance as a weapon

is just a theory.

Enough to know the difference

between fact and theory.

We don't give credit

to outlandish theories

here in this office. If we did,

we would have shut down

for the 2012 Mayan apocalypse.

GMOs would have turned

all of us into zombies by now.

I'd even turn off

my laptop for Y2K.

The point is, whatever was

in that desert was destroyed.

It isn't destroyed!

It's activated!

The only thing your bombs did

was make it harder to turn off!

There are some very smart men

in the middle of that desert

who have figured out a

technology that makes it capable

of wiping out an entire village.

So I would gratefully appreciate

this office's help...

Whatever you think

was or was not in that desert

was taken out by a team of men

who also risked their lives

to save yours.

So...

what we'd appreciate from you

is a little bit of gratitude.

- This meeting's over.

- Uh, over?

- Why am I here?

- I said, this meeting is over.

This meeting might be over,

but mark my words

this... this has just begun.

[woman] Where are the

seats for the tent?

Babe, uh, where's my toolbox?

[sighs] I don't know. I

thought you packed it.

I told you to pack it.

[sighs]

Why would I pack your toolbox?

Because I asked you to.

Yes, and I told you I couldn't

because I had to pack

the groceries.

So you didn't pack it?

I packed the groceries.

Seriously,

do you ever listen to me?

Clearly not, 'cause if you did

you'd have a toolbox,

wouldn't ya?

Oh!

Oh, my God, babe!

Are you seeing this?

[rumbling]

Run! Run!

Oh!

Oh! Oh, no!

[screaming]

[alarm blaring]

Rob, you're gonna wanna

see this.

That's the second one today.

Southridge.

Not really an alarming size,

it's barely registering.

No, but it-it's not the size

that's of concern

it's the frequency.

Have you been mapping these?

Yeah, every single one of 'em,

like you told me to.

See, it's not the size.

Would you grow up?

Yeah, the, uh,

pins are tagged with size

duration and time.

[Jake whistles] So, what's

that supposed to mean?

Is California getting ready

for the big one?

Well, it shouldn't be.

See, normally,

this kind of activity

would be a good thing to release

the stress along

the fault line, but...

But then the seismic activity

would be decelerating, right?

Exactly, but here

it's accelerating.

You've been paying attention.

What is that?

- Another one.

- Something's coming in.

[rumbling]

Okay, professor,

that didn't feel small.

No, it didn't.

[phone ringing]

Ranger Station 219,

go for Martin.

[intense music]

Alright, copy that.

I got an emergency.

You should come with me.

Okay. Uh...

You guys stay here

and finish set up the equipment.

Stay here?

[door shuts]

It's just a tremor.

We should be fine.

[knock at window]

Can we talk?

I can't believe you were there.

I can't believe

you went to Yemen.

- Who are you?

- I mean, you saw it, right?

You saw the weapon.

Was it, was it operational?

[sighs] Sorry, my parents always

said that I was very short on tact.

- Drew. Drew Slack.

- Wait.

What do you know? Why didn't you

say anything in there?

- Off the record?

- Not a reporter.

- Your car's not bugged, is it?

- What?

Okay.

I was part of the crew

that hacked the files.

We dumped the info out there,

th-the files that you got.

- Files that sent you to Yemen.

- No. Wait! Slow down.

That was you?

Well, me and some anonymous

friends.

- That's treason.

- Uh, okay...

I'm acutely aware of that,

but I don't see it that way.

See, okay,

because if you're right

which I think that you are

then it's the men in those rooms

that are the real

treasonous ones.

Okay, they know, Kate.

Keegan, Pierce.

They know that Hellstorm exists.

- They're lying to you.

- Why, why lie?

Because it's their technology

that got stolen

in the first place.

Sensitive

government information.

How do you think

that's gonna look?

Thing is, they're confident

they destroyed it.

Yeah, well, they're wrong,

we've got to get back in there.

Wait, wait, are you kidding me?

You can't go back in there.

They'll have you locked up

before you can say anything.

- Or worse.

- Worse?

This division of government

doesn't exactly answer

to a whole of people,

if you get what I'm saying.

Okay.

How sure are you

that it's operational?

I was there.

I saw it. It is.

This is so bad.

Oh, this is so bad.

Okay, Drew, listen.

I need your help.

I have to get out of here.

But I need you to get my files.

They have them.

I need them.

You can do this,

go get me my files.

I'm going to jail,

I'm definitely going to jail.

You're gonna be a hero.

Nelson Mandela was a hero, and

he went to jail for 27 years.

Drew, thousands

of innocent people

are going to lose

their lives, maybe more.

Oh!

Fine.

I'll do it.

- Where are you going?

- San Andreas Fault.

Is there a problem there, too?

There's gonna be

a problem everywhere.

Go get me the info.

[sighs]

Got it.

Come on, Rob.

[Martin] Oh, Rob, this

does not look good.

[Rob]

Man, what happened here?

What is this?

Oh, no.

I knew these people.

Uh...

[Rob coughing]

Look at that.

Go!

Let's go!

Go!

[rumbling]

[alarm blaring]

Look. It looks like there was

another seismic event.

You know how to read that?

You do know who

my parents are, right?

Yeah, so, why this

sudden interest

in what your father's doing?

Thought you were

going on spring break.

I was.

I got in trouble

for a little political stunt.

This is my punishment.

I guess there was

a lot of that going on.

I heard that there was this

group of people

who painted themselves green

and went streaking across campus

to raise awareness

for Earth Day.

Thought that was kinda cool.

Thanks. My father

didn't think so.

Wait, that was you?

Where am I at when all

the cool stuff happens? Damn!

- Jake, it was for a cause.

- Well, no, I get that.

And I support it, like,

like wholly.

Like next time you do it,

any time you want to do it

you just, you let me know

and I'll be there, you know,

f-for the cause.

- Jake...

- With a paint brush and paint.

Jake, you remember

when we were in the car

and you told me to tell you

when you were

being awkward and uncomfortable?

Yeah.

I'm doing it right now,

aren't I?

Yeah, you're doing it right now.

I'm sorry. I just...

I get nervous

when I'm around you.

Whatever. Ahem.

- We have internet.

- Oh, perfect.

What? What? What?

Again, what we are seeing

is widespread destruction

that has consumed Paris.
