It was big and...
I don't know what... it was something...
I've never... I've never seen...
No one believed me. They

No one believes me.
I believe you.
That thing took her?
- We have to go back in town!
To find Alice. To

Dudes, she's dead! Alice is dead!
- Don't even say that!
First of all, I want to live, okay?
Joe, what do you actually
expect us to do, man?
Town is closed. We're
not allowed to go back!
Look I have an idea.
I'm going whether or not you're

Come on guys!

As if I'm going to help you?
Do this for me...
I'll baby-sit the twins every

I'm not shitting you.
You can't ask me any questions,
and you can't tell anyone.
I'm serious. Nobody!
Does it have to be him?
- Yes or no, you ugly freak.

caravan Woodward has in the parking lot.
I bet that's where he's keeping his research.
- What research?
We're going to learn everything
we can about that thing,
so that we can find it. That's
how we're going to save Alice.

And no one touches my CB. You got it?
What if there're padlocks on the door?
We're going to the school.
Since when this one becomes the boss?
- I don't know.
I got to take a leak!
What am I suppose to do? Piss in here?
Thanks for the hospitality.

If the aircraft has already
searched Woodward's house,
wouldn't they search
Maybe his room but not the dungeon.
Woodwards has...
- Shut up!
What kind of music does
she like, your sister?
I don't care, disco I guess.
I can get back to disco.
We shouldn't take River Road.
They put a roadblock up.
Dork, I saw it. Observe.
So what, I wait here like a douche?
Yes, thank you so much for doing this.
Do you have a tire iron?
Joe!
- Let me try!
God, I hope my electronic
football is in there!
Joe, it's impossible. There
is no way we can do this!
These things are made by a
bank vaulter, like a safe.
Professional robbers can't even
They are so strong...
I loosen it for you.
Guys.
- All these junks?
He's got movies in here.
I can't believe we're
breaking into the school.
Who does that?
Nobody does that! Elites do that!
Dr. Woodward was
dishonorably discharged,
from Nellis Air Force base in 1963.
because of subversive
conduct. Whatever that is...
Charles, check it out.
It's old man Woodward.
Back when he's like
middle aged man Woodward.
They've been tracking
this thing seen 1958.
What is this?
It says "April 8, 1963 incident. "
I don't know.
Cary!
- What?
We have to find this thing! Come on!
Ok, sorry!
Told them that this creature is much
more sophisticated than any of us. / i
That his species is
predominantly "subterranean"./ i
Subterranean? And to
have it treated without...
compassion or respect. / i
I explained that all he wants
is to rebuild his ship. / i
A craft made up of those cubes of
complex shape-shifting alloys. / i
Remarkable material that we will
never fully understand. / i
He has been desperate to reconstitute
his ship since it crashed here in '58.
But instead of giving him the help he
needs, we held him as a prisoner. / i
Guys it's Dr. Woodward.
He has been restrained
And experimented upon, biopsied
and tortured by Nelec. / i
Through pain and lack of compassion we
have taught him to hate us all. / i
We have turned him into an enemy. / i
I told them I knew these things
because he made contact with me. / i
That he made a psychic
connection by touch. / i
Oh, my God!
- Jesus.
What's that thing?
- What the hell...
I can't watch this!
The moment he made contact
I understood him. / i
And he, me. / i
What I know is that if we don't
change this and begin helping him,/ i
we will all pay the price. / i
But Nelec wouldn't listen. / i
He wasn't trying to kill it.
He had me discharged.
He was trying to help him escape.
But I won't give up. / i
I'll do everything within my power...
- Oh, my God!
- Guys, hear that?
... help him rebuild that ship... / i
Just a bunch of kids.
Oh, sh*t.
Search them. Let me see that.
I bought those and made it myself.
Jesus, Cary, shut up!
You're the Deputy's boy.
No.
Move out!
Sh*t, oh sh*t!
Breaker, breaker,
requesting police backup.
Breaker 1-9, is this
the police channel?
Staff Sergeant.
- Hi, how are you doing?
Hey, Mr. Lamb.
Rosko.
Where the hell have you been?
What are you wearing?
Come here!
The Air Force set that fire. They
want the town empty for some reason.
The whole operation, the military operation,
evacuation, everything, it's all bad.
We need to find out...
- Did you hear about Joe?
Look, dispatch just got
a call from Citizen Band.
Joe and some of his friends.
They were grabbed by military
personnel at Middle School.
Preston, you tell me everything
and I won't throw you in jail.
Yes sir.
But I think you should
look at this first.
Mr. Sergeant, dust off 03,
is 20 minutes out.
Shut up! They won't do that.
I'm not kidding, I think
they're going to kill us.
They are not going to kill us.
You know why?
Why?
- 'Cause we were just...
Hold on!
Is that the same thing from the train?
Why are we stopping?
Contact with the precious cargo!
Driver, do you see anything out there?
No, sir, nothing!
What's that gun?
Sako Bolt Action 30W-6...
Okay, we get it.
Those aren't bullets.
Here, tag it.
Yes sir.
Open the door!
Don't they give up this.
Sir, is there a particular area
that you want me to shoot?
Help!
Do something now!
Where are the fire powers?
There's a monster out there, Joe!
- Where the hell is it?
I got it, sir!
Guys, the seat-belt
is killing me! Come on!
This is Nelec. Use the big guns!
Whatever happens to me, do not let it...
Joe, open it!
- Open the door!
It's bolted!
Please, open it!
- Where are the keys?
Overmyer help me, my leg's stuck!
Please, sir, open the door.
Please, open the door!
