Devanera will destroy the

whole planet.

This is the most stressful

conversation I've ever had.

And I've dated

a lot of women.

We need to cover

more ground faster.

We can actually make up

a lot of

time if we cut across that

mountain.

It'll be harder, you okay?

I will be.

Okay.

Don't worry.

We'll sort this out.

[music swells]

[engines revving]

Check his blood.

Of course, pretty sure I

saw a lion, two elephants,

and a tiger walk through

the camp last night.

Which basically means I

must have

slept through my watch.

We've got to keep

our eyes open.

Ah, Des, Human bet me one

billion dollars I could

not pilot this vessel.

Human?

Yes. I named him.

This beast reminds

me of Pegaus.

It does not fly.

You will not

understand this, Des.

You are a machine.

Devanera's

requesting an update.

What should I tell him?

Tell him I'm shopping.

Devanera, you summoned me.

I'm fairly certain I was

clear in my instructions,

Garabon.

Why are you on the planet?

I'm exploring

other worlds.

Besides, I made a

glorious discovery.

Something the humans call

'caffeine.'

This is no time for sightseeing,

Garabon.

Irehkull...

Should you not be

terrorizing the Asians

instead of obsessing

yourself with me?

I'm ahead of schedule

in every stage of this

operation.

So you found the boy then?

[laughs]

No.

But don't forget, this

is your operation we are

following.

Yet there you are,

parading yourself on the

planet, risking our

exposure to the humans.

I made it quite clear

- Human.

- this was a weak course

Someone whose sheer voice

drains the life out of

you.

Dumbass?

We should have destroyed

this planet, and returned

to the war.

Irehkull, you are

being a dumbass.

What is a dumbass?

Enough!

Find out what

a dumbass is.

What is our progress?

The human controls have

been testing the blood.

We will either find the

boy, or whomever he's

traveling with.

It's just a

matter of time.

With all the destruction

the human controls have

inflicted, the boy

could be dead already.

We allowed the controls to

summon the blue spheres,

specifically for

protection and diversion.

Who knew they would want

to blow everything up.

Including themselves.

Forty of their

days, Garabon.

That is all the

time I gave you.

We will have

the boy by then.

I'm done walking.

I'm sorry, but

I'm not a horse.

I'm designed for

short distances.

I think we can rest here.

I'll even carry

one of you.

But ladies, we are

literally walking across a

freaking country.

I'm done walking.

I'm going to check

that house for food.

I'll go with you.

They better not stay

indoors too long.

I had another bad

dream about Cameron.

Oh, Ellen.

I'm so afraid that

something terrible has

happened to him.

Oh, sweetie, in situations

like this, you just have

to have faith.

Faith he's okay.

You're a good

woman, Nance.

I'm glad we

found each other.

Me too.

You're next.

And then your friends.

[computers whirring]

We have a hit.

More are coming.

Find the exact location.

Sending coordinate control

for location scan.

You stay back, don't touch me!

Put the stick down, old

woman, or you'll make me

angry!

Run, Nancy, run!

You think that

will stop me?

No.

But this will.

The woman they discovered

is on this continent.

She is not human.

And the boy?

He is not with her.

We have sent more

controls to hold her for

interrogation.

No, she serves the boy.

If he is not with her, she

will die before giving him

up.

I will make her

take me to him.

You're going personally?

I would send Human, but I

fear he will blow her up.

Fire her up!

Play nice!

We've sent more controls

to the location.

This is not something we

can entrust to the human

controls.

Let me do this

my way, Devanera.

Deep down, you know

I'm always right.

Just find me the boy.

[intense music]

Where is Garabon now?

He is en route to the

woman's location.

He is exposed.

We need to see this

as an opportunity.

The Collective beings

serve Devanera, commanding

the power of

the blue light.

Now Nulsa Mathium sustains

the veiling of our ships,

hiding them

from the humans.

But it is his brother

Harbien Gium who is able

to weaponize the might

of the blue light, he

maintains our hold over

the human controls.

We are harnessing their

power to disperse the

NOCC's from our

three ships.

Not many get to witness

the little ones at work.

We've modified these

NOCC's to taste the blood

of the people, letting

us know whether they are

human or not.

Have you sent them

all over the planet?

No, dear.

They were designed to

inoculate the warriors

during battle.

They move as the

warriors move.

That's why we keep the

people grouped together.

Baby, what are you doing?

It's for when I'm not with

you, and I'm missing you,

wearing that.

Stop it, you're

embarrassing me.

Don't be embarrassed,

you're beautiful!

Now say something nice.

Like what?

Like, I don't know.

'I love you, David.'

I love you, David.

[burning grass]

SARAH!

This is awesome.

This is awesome!

Cameron! Buddy!

Let's not try to let all

the IO's where we are.

[far-off explosions]

We need to move.

[yelling, screaming]

[screaming, gunshots]

Sh*t...

Okay, dude, it's

time to hide us now.

Cameron!

[music swells]

Get in!

The world is ending

and he runs off!

You need to get in now! It's

gonna blow!

Crap.

Sh*t.

We're gonna have to run.

No, no, just

get in the car.

- What?

- Look, if you want to live

you need to trust me. Get in!

Here you go.

So what, are

you both insane?

I'm talking about staying

indoors like this.

Are you both slow?

Uh...

Do you have any idea what

they'll do if they find

you away from the crowds?

Aren't you away

from the crowds?

Oh and another thing! I still

want to know how

you hid us back at the

plane.

You're smiling, why are

you smiling, Cameron?

Sh*t, sorry... You're just so

intense.

You're changing

the subject.

How did you hide us?

The sunlight at that time

of the day can 'occlude.'

Uh...

Go ahead, tell her.

You mean, tell her...

everything?

She might as well

know what's going on.

Okay.

Everything that has

happened, it's not what

you think.

There was never

an outbreak.

Those things were

never infected.

My mom, the one I told you

about, she's not my real

mother.

But, to understand the

story, we need to go away

from here.

David?

I love our life.

Me too baby.

Never leave me.

Never.

[shouting]

I feel safe with you.

Always.

[melancholy piano music]

Come out. I know you're there.

It's scary meeting

strangers, because you

don't know who they'll be.

We're four women, it would

be good if we could join

your group.

Look, I understand.

We are stronger if

we stick together.

Okay, we'll meet you at

the edge of the forest.

When we get there, I'll

give you the signal.

Good. Stay safe.

And Ellen, what's

the signal?

[bird calls]

Okay then.

Ellen.

Hi Richard. These are my ladies.
