They came from all over the hill.

- There were millions.

We ran for our lives.

- I am not going back.

They will attack us.

Now a call via satellite

with Dr. Dubois of Stanford.

It is an ant expert.

What is wrong?

These ants are

somehow disturbed.

Mining or excavations.

If their territory is attacked,

they can be aggressive.

They communicate with chemical

signals, pheromones...

from their antennae.

They look bad, but every smell

intruder in the colony immediately.

So these are smart guys?

- Yes, their chemical language is special.

If they go find food...

coordinates that language behavior

of one million individuals.

Their brain has the ability

of a small computer.

How much would we learn as we

they communicate without technology?

We understand a few

suicide terrorists will not work.

What they know that?

These are thousands of ants

who drown...

to the base of a bridge to be built.

Let your hair by chat?

This is the man that the situation

is addressing.

Thank you, Jo.

That was very interesting, Dr. Dubois.

But it is a fairy tale

that a swarm of ants fighting...

behaves as a kind of parade.

It's just a great ball instincts.

Dr. Horace Lennart,

Director of Thoracic, former...

Now the biggest killer

insects in the world.

You tell people stories.

If we communicate with them

without technology, they eat us.

If you do not believe me,

come look in Ban Tao.

With a spray?

- That you should always have with you.

Thank you, Dr. Lennart. We're out of air.

Have you had fun?

- Dr. Claire Dubois.

How long are you there?

- One day. Tomorrow we start.

How does it look?

- Rainforest, rubber trees...

and what victims.

I can 'world's best entomologist

Always use.

I not only in your team.

- It is a family. They love you.

Almost as bad as I now al

Maybe we can once

eating out.

Talk to you soon.

Come on, what ndo we go skeletons

let melt.

Come on, folks.

Give the signal...

- And let loose the dogs of war.

Forward, march.

Back to the front line, fast.

Back to the front line, now.

Okay, guys.

We should fix this.

Our whole industry is flat.

We can not allow tourists.

There are more

than we had estimated.

More than in 2001?

- More than in 2001.

That swarm our economy

for two years ruined.

The ants are different, they say.

- How? Aggressive?

Yes, more aggressive.

- They almost never kill many people.

There are now more deaths than

in all previous incidents together.

Yes, more aggressive.

But they also struggle with policy.

I will show you.

Usually they remain the approaching

flames rill until we fire.

But today they are continued, as if

they knew that the fire was coming.

You understand what I mean?

Our defense was good.

That plantation is plucked bald?

- Everything is gone.

We must reduce them

to that barren piece of land.

Cortez, you go through the center

with the army.

Bill and I take the right side.

We exclude them.

You've hired the right people.

We are sure, now.

I hate this deal.

Debs, you receive me?

- Good picture. Now your perspective.

Picture good perspective.

Cortez, your GPS does not work.

It helps if I start him. Sorry.

All systems loaded.

- We go against it.

If you and Cortez erection, weaken

we are the center from the air.

Each ant poison kills another.

- Domino effect.

All ready? Are there any questions?

Team Cortez, the first contact.

Lethal effect is true.

We withdraw to the north.

Cortez, Central here. Spraying it.

How does it look like, Debs?

- Good pictures, recording runs.

Again.

- Cortez still has his hands full.

I would be with him.

- Keep up the plan.

We can plan ahead.

One of our advantages.

How is your connection to the base?

The mine is worthless.

Is there an antenna in the area,

or something?

A new celtoren,

but that works yet.

Len, did you hear that?

He works yet.

What is that?

There is something strange in your

neighborhood. The telemetry from falls.

Len, have you heard something here?

You can find this strange?

- Why?

I do not know.

I find it all a bit...

too quiet.

I get the kriebels.

Len, come again.

What is this?

What is that?

All ants.

- Destruction?

Do not move. Debs, you get this?

The connection was cut.

Look.

- Look where it goes.

I'm sure in.

This is strange, say.

This is unbelievable, Lennie.

The cables cross each other,

but remain separate.

They carry no food.

It seems like a communication.

Just whether they build nests.

They do not like them swarming.

- I know.

Watch out.

O God, there are millions.

Lennie, help me.

Get that branch off me.

Stay calm, Bill.

Lennie, make it open.

Make it stop.

There is one inside.

They have not arrived.

They have not arrived.

Cortez, come here.

There is something about Bill.

- What then?

Nothing.

It is fine.

Help me to withdraw his suit.

What happens?

- Classical withdrawal patterns.

You can stop. Good work.

Is it okay?

- I do not know.

Have you seen

how that branch came down?

No, when everything was already out.

So you have not seen?

- What?

Nothing.

Make a statement for documentation.

I see you later.

What is that?

Nothing.

You should see this as.

Devastated fields,

which I have previously seen.

Yes, but now I lay there

a filter over it.

Is this real?

These.

And this one.

This is just a mud flat

to the river.

You have to copies of them.

Discreet.

What do you think it means?

- No idea, but we need to know.

Attention, please.

Minister Zhing would like to address.

I am grateful to my speaking...

to Dr. Horace Lennart

and the team of Thorax.

For their help in fighting

of the scourge.

The cooperation between

our brave armed forces...

and the American science...

Our vast archipelago

made safer and more productive.

One day we will this threat

perhaps completely eradicate.

And perhaps explains Dr. Lennart

one day what his secret formula.

I lift the glass to Dr. Lennart

and his team.

What is this for a rottent?

How is it, buddy?

This chic to be heard. There are everywhere

ants. They fall into my glass.

I see no ants, Bill.

- But I see them.

I feel they also have my entire body.

That is just a belated sensory

reaction. Perfectly normal.

It is not normal,

what we today took place.

How she left us on that tree fall,

that was planned.

How is it? You have the

not so well done today.

No, sir. Look.

There is still one left.

You have a overlooked.

What a horrible sight.

Billy is totally in the war.

- Len dragged him through.

Yes, if anyone can.

But I am worried.

What?

- Billy.

Or actually Dr. William Routledge, B. Sc,

etcetera.

He was professor Lens

at the university.

When he was heavy on the drink.

Len helped him off, gave him

this job, paid his gokschulden.

But that was five years ago.

If he has back problems,

Len they lost it.

Yes. They do everything together.

they are back.

Stop the music, please.

Attention, everybody.

All leaves have been withdrawn. All

log into their military unit.
