They are bigger than family.

Nothing is bigger than family!

Okay, you're right.

You're right.

Jess, it's just

sometimes the world

isn't that black and white.

- Why can't it be?

- Because it's not.

For me it never has been.

I make sacrifices,

and I live with them.

And I do dangerous things

that take me away from you

because I have to.

Because it's my calling,

and I hope...

someday that you

understand that.

But for now... baby...

let's just go find your dad.

[sighs]

Let's go.

Rob.

Rob, come in. Do you hear me?

[Pierce]

We don't have all day so...

this is gonna keep going until

you give me a reason to stop.

Now, where is she,

and what is she doing?

I don't know.

I swear.

Sir, intel thinks they found

the Hellstorm wave signature.

I may not need you after all.

[door shuts]

[Rob]

Kate! Jessie! Come in.

[Jake]

They're not here?

Kate. Kate, Jessie, come in.

Kate, come in.

Kate!

Jessie!

Jessie!

Kate, come in. Come on, please.

Come on, guys, please.

Kate!

[Kate]

Rob?

- Kate!

- Where are they?

There they are. Come on.

- Rob!

- Dad!

Rob!

- Jessie!

- Dad!

[panting]

Dad!

[panting]

Oh, God.

[panting]

Oh.

It's good to see you.

We got your data.

Let's hope it's worth it.

It'll be, I promise.

Come on.

- Let's get in the truck. Go.

- Okay.

Go.

[panting]

[Keegan] I'm getting ready to land soon.

I need answers.

How long do we have?

By our calculations

the wave will hit

the Yellowstone Caldera

in less than five hours

and twenty-five minutes.

Ah.

How do we stop this?

We're working on that, sir.

Work faster.

So what are you hoping

to do with all this data?

Quick, Jake, if a tidal wave

were coming

for the coast,

how would you stop it?

Is that a trick question?

You can't stop a tidal wave.

It's a theoretical one.

Theoretically,

what would you do?

You'd open up a trench

in the bottom of the ocean.

The waves' energy would go down,

it would never reach the coast.

That's actually right.

- I-I was gonna say that.

- Kate, Kate.

I-I already told you, okay?

That would require

a massive explosion.

- We're talking nuclear.

- Yes.

At the exact time

and exact location.

It's the only way

to counteract the wave.

Without this, we have nothing.

- Oh, oh, right, right. Plan B.

- Yeah.

How-how is plan B coming?

Plan B.

Hey, I need Pierce.

Sir.

- Yes?

- You have a phone call.

Yeah. Well, I'm kinda busy here.

Yes, I told her that

but she said it's urgent.

Very urgent.

Her? Who?

The professor.

- Okay. Put her through.

- Yes, sir.

Professor, I'm so glad

to hear from you.

I'm here with...

your little buddy, Drew.

Kate, Pierce knows

what I sent you.

Drew, are you okay?

[Drew]

Ah...

I'm at about a ten on the pain

on the hospital scales.

Yes, we were just

telling him how much

we really don't like

treason over here.

It was a physical demonstration.

[Kate] Pierce, you son of a

b*tch, you listen to me.

Drew didn't just send me

info on Hellstorm

I have everything,

I have all the data.

I have all the files.

I have proof.

Proof that you knew

there was a weapon.

Proof that sensitive files

were hacked out of your office

and given into enemy hands.

Proof that when

you went in to save it

all you ended up doing

was turning it on.

You have blood

all over your hands.

Your hands are covered in blood.

That does not sound good.

Phil, listen,

we can make a deal right now

before this gets any worse

and trust me,

it's going to get worse.

I can stop it.

But I need the help

of the US Military.

Military? W-W-What exactly

are you proposing?

I need a device that is capable

of delivering the equivalent

of one kiloton explosion.

Ah. Are you joking? That's...

You're talking about

a small nuclear device.

On US soil, no less.

Yes, I am, and you have it

but I'm talking about

a fair trade.

All of the files

for all of your help

plus Drew.

You're talking

about nuclear munitions.

Hellstorm isn't stopping.

If this wave activity

ignites Yellowstone

it is an end-game scenario.

This is as bad as it gets.

You're right.

I'm sorry, come again?

The device will reach

the Yellowstone Caldera

in a little over five hours.

Okay, yes, but given the right

tools we can stop it here.

Now, what kind of power

do you think I have?

You have enough assets

at your disposal.

You didn't listen to me once.

Don't make the same mistake

again.

We are running out of time.

Uh...

I'll get back to you.

You've gotta like her style.

Now, am I free to go?

Not exactly.

If this is gonna work,

we gotta get underground.

Yeah.

There's a tunnel system.

Inside of the old mines,

not too far from here.

I think it might be deep enough.

- What are we waiting for?

- Let's go.

[Keegan]

I don't think that's a bad idea.

This could be a win-win.

Assemble her a team.

Give her the requested assets.

If she's right, it's gonna

all clean up quite nicely.

Like I said, I want this mess

scrubbed and sanitized.

And if she's wrong?

Then nothing's gonna matter,

anyway.

We're all screwed.

[Pierce] The professor's been

informed of your arrival.

We'll send in exact coordinates.

Hey, we're counting on you

to make sure

that payload

reaches her safely, huh?

Roger that. I'm on it, sir.

[intense music]

It's coming closer.

[Rob]

Kate.

Well, it's safe for now.

A few more tremors,

I don't know.

The whole place feels like

it's gonna come down.

A few more quakes and

the whole place will come down.

We're not even sure

this thing's gonna show up.

[Jake] I really don't

wanna be here anymore.

[helicopter whirring]

That answers our question.

That plan B?

Let's hope so.

What are you doing?

Penny! Penny!

Hey, are you okay?

What did they do to you? Hey!

Stop. Come on,

you can't do this.

You can't do this.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no, no. You can't. Come on.

- Stop.

- Sorry. Loose ends.

[sobbing]

No!

[muffled gunshots]

[Kate] Didn't think I'd

see you again so soon.

[Ward] That's good luck.

Started in the desert.

Hopefully it'll end right here.

I like the sound of that.

[helicopter whirring]

- Where are they going?

- Protocol.

They'll be back with the evac

at the scheduled time.

They better be.

That's Jameson,

our bomb tech, as ordered.

[Ward] I hope you guys

know what you're doing.

So you have a nuclear bomb

inside that thing?

Yeah, it's a one SADM.

Special Atomic

Demolition Munitions.

It's capable of one kiloton

detonation.

Ma'am, I was told you're the one

with the where and when.

You're gonna do down

about a mile down in there

and we are running out

of time...

Whoa. We can't go down there

a mile in that thing

for a remote detonation.

I'm assuming that we're not

all going down there.

No, they're staying here.

Here.

Relax. Be right back.

Look, I know it's clich, kid.

Just push the red button, okay?

Push the red button.

I'm not pressing anything.

No, you have to, sweetie.

Look, kid, it's not gonna
