Universal Soldier Page #5

- Hey. freeze!

- Get down!

Drop your weapon!

See?

They're everywhere.

How could you, a doctor,

be a party to this?

I've been asking myself

that question for years.

- Tell me how it worked. - By

hyper-accelerating the bodies,

we discovered that we could turn

dead flesh into living tissue.

But to make the process work,

the bodies ran at

dangerously high temperatures,

needed to be constantly cooled,

the brain sedated. controlled.

Otherwise, it would eventually stroke.

- What are you saying, Doctor?

- Dr. Gregor.

Excuse me. Yes? What is it?

Thanks.

Officials believe Colonel Perry was

shot and killed early this morning.

Authorities are still looking

for reporter Veronica Roberts.

believed to be linked to the two deaths.

- They've set you up.

- Closer to home. a robbery at Hayes Supermarket...

turned deadly when three armed men...

entered the supermarket earlier today.

- The leader of the gang was videotaped-

- Regressive traumatic recall.

- What?

- Trauma inflicted at the time of death.

See, in Luc's case.

he wanted to go home.

When he awoke as a UniSol, he

returned to that single emotion.

As for Scott. he thinks he's still

in Vietnam fighting the insurgents.

He doesn't realize he's alive.

He's not.

He's dead. just like me.

- Be sure to write.

- Now boarding, Los Angeles Express.

Now boarding.

This is insane.

You heard what the doctor

said. You need medical help.

I think that you should

just turn yourself in...

and, and get started on

your treatments again.

- And then?

- Well, then we expose everything.

I mean, Dr. Gregor will help us.

I just want to go home.

You don't seem to understand.

There's a chance you won't make it.

- I'm already dead.

- No, you're not.

Goddamn it, you are not dead, all right?

You're alive. And that is precious.

You don't just throw that away.

Now boarding, Los Angeles direct line.

A bus ticket? Wh-

To Los Angeles.

Well- Wh-wh-what

is this for?

You're safe now.

He's only coming after me.

You know, you're, you're

making a big mistake here.

You've got your story.

That's what you wanted.

You think-

Last call, Los Angeles

Express. Now boarding.

Last call.

Passengers bound for Los

Angeles, now boarding.

Last call.

You should have left me

while you had a chance.

What, and miss all the fun?

Sh*t!

We're gonna take 'em over to County right

now. Should get there just after lunch.

Oh, sh*t!

Get rid of 'em.

Oh, sh*t.

- Got you now. boy. - Jesus Christ,

he- He's comin' right for us!

Hey! Driver!

Get us outta here! Help!

Holy sh*t!

Excuse me. You should

check on your driver, pal.

He don't look too hot.

- What do we do now?

- We have to stop the bus.

Oh. gee, that's a great

idea. What a concept.

What are you doing now?

What the hell!

Is it working?

- Oh, God.

- Do you want to play catch?

What do I do? What do I do?

Oh, sh*t!

Can't find it. Here. Oh, God.

Are we having fun yet?

Oh, my God!

- You jump. -

W-W-Wait a minute.

Wh-What happened to that whole idea about

stopping the bus? I mean, I liked that idea.

- You jump!

- I'm not goin' anywhere without you.

- We'll jump together.

- Okay. Together.

Okay. Okay.

Oh, sh*t.

Hit him! Hit him hard!

Get the f*** up.

in the driveway. I think.

Mrs. Devreux?

John, come here! Oh, Luc, mon fils! Luc!

Uh, wait a minute. What do

you mean Charles isn't there?

Well, where the hell is he?

No, look, I-I don't care what you've

No, look-

- All right.

- Okay. uh, yeah, yeah.

- He's alive.

- I'll meet them there.

All right.

Um, I'm gonna have to get going.

A news van from the network is gonna

meet me at the Sheriff's station.

They still don't believe me, but, uh, I

think we'll be able to change their minds.

You okay?

So many things are missing.

So many things I remember.

So many things I, I can't.

Luc, it has been 25 years.

Such a long time, 25 years.

I'll never get those years back.

Look at it this way:

You look great

for a 50-year-old.

Care for a cup, Miss Roberts?

Oh, um.

No, no, I, uh, I better get going,

ya know. They'll be waiting for me.

- Be careful. It's turning into a downpour.

- Okay.

- Thank you. Thank you both.

- You're welcome.

You gonna be all right?

In time.

You know something? I haven't smoked

a cigarette in almost two days.

Maybe I'll quit.

I'll see ya.

Sh*t.

Where's the key?

Oh, come on. Sh*t!

Lookin' for somethin'?

Ma?

Mom? Are you there?

Devreux!

Devreux, can you hear me? Nice farm.

Exactly like you

described it back in 'Nam.

Why don't you come out here and

join a little family reunion?

I mean, what the hell are you

waitin' for. farm boy? Are you deaf?

Get your ass out here!

We have some unfinished

business. you and me.

Wow! She really has beautiful ears.

Sarge.

You want me? I'm here. Let the girl go.

Don't tell me what to do, soldier.

I give the orders around here, and

you're gonna have to learn that.

She's a f***in' gook traitor.

I gave you an order to kill her. Now you're

gonna have to fulfill that order. private.

Scott, the war...

is over.

Not for me.

Not for her. Not for you.

You can't run from this war, soldier.

Not under my command, huh?

You've grown weak.

You should've taken your...

medication.

Come on. Get up and fight.

Now I'm gonna teach you about

the chain of command, private.

When I say jump,

you say, ''How high?'' Got it? Got it?

Why can't you get it

into your f***ing head?

I gave you an order, soldier.

Now let me see you

waste that gook traitor.

Now where're we gonna

shoot her? In the stomach?

Nah. In the chest?

No. I think we should shoot her...

in the head!

Ready. Fire!

It's empty!

It's empty!

Luc!

Oh, God!

Oh, God, help!

Come on!

- Luc!

- Run!

No!

Run!

Well, that's the spirit, soldier.

I mean, this is a

serious matter. private.

I can't believe you got your

poor folks involved in this too.

Well, I got a little secret for you,

boy. You're up for a court-martial.

- You ready to go to trial?

- Give me your best shot.

Gee, I'm awful sorry about this,

but you're all sentenced to death.

Say good night, a**hole.

Good night, a**hole.

You're dead, soldier.

No. I'm alive.

You're discharged, Sarge.

Don't worry about us.

It's over, dear.

Here, let me help you.
