All language subtitles for The Outer Limits_S04E06_Relativity Theory.srt - 2

STAND BY. REAL SPACE
IN 20 SECONDS.

HEY, TALI. WANT YOU TO KNOW,
IF WE DON'T MAKE A SAFE DROP,

I ONLY SLEPT
WITH YOUR WIFE ONCE.

SOUNDS LIKE WE GOT OURSELVES
A VOLUNTEER FOR POINT.

YOU HEARD THE COMMANDER,
PEOPLE. KEEP IT DOWN.

(Sternlicht)
STAND BY. 5 SECONDS. 4,

3, 2, 1, INSERTION.

[roaring]

[beeping]

ORBIT IS 4 BY 4,

AND STAR FIELD CONFIRMS
THIS IS TAU GAMMA PRIME.

YES!

I'M GETTING
A DATA STREAM.

(Ivers)
WHAT'S YOUR ASSESSMENT?

(Teresa)
NO RADIO SPECTRUM EMISSIONS,

NO HOT SPOTS,
NO GEOLOGICAL ANOMALIES.

IT IS AN UNSPOILED PLANET

WITH NO SIGNS
OF INTELLIGENT LIFE.

NOT FOR LONG.
CHECK OUT THE SPECTROMETERS,

WE'VE GOT FERRIC METALS,
TRANSURANIC DEPOSITS.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
2 MILLION NEW DOLLARS APIECE,

AND THAT'S JUST
IN SURVEY BONUSES.

(Ivers)
WE'LL DO
THE SURFACE SURVEY FIRST,

AND DOCUMENT THE CLAIM.

GIVE ME A CANDIDATE LOCATION.

[beeping]

RIGHT HERE.

[beeping]

(Tali)
WE'VE GOT A CLEARING
BIG ENOUGH TO LAND IN,

AND WE OUGHT TO BE ABLE
TO FIND GOOD ORE SAMPLES

LESS THAN 5 KLICKS
UP THE HILL.

LET'S GET DOWN THERE
AND GET RICH.

(Sternlicht)
DE-ORBITING NOW.

[whirring]

[creatures chattering]

(Pendelton)
TALI, TALI, DO YOU READ ME?

TOO LOUD AND TOO CLEAR.

(Pendelton)
HEY, MAN,
I WAS JUST WONDERING,

SINCE YOU'RE JUST
WATCHING THE SHIP

WHILE WE'RE ACTUALLY
COLLECTING ORE SAMPLES,

DOES THAT MEAN YOU JUST GET
HALF A COMMISSION?

SAY AGAIN, PENDELTON?
YOU'RE BREAKING UP

[radio beeping]

$2 MILLION.

WHAT'S THE FIRST THING
YOU'RE GONNA BUY?

(Mason)
A PAIR OF HIKING BOOTS
THAT DON'T PINCH.

TELL YOU WHAT,
YOU SIGN OVER $100,000 TO ME,

AND I'LL CARRY YOU TO THE TOP.

(Sears)
PENDELTON!

THE POINT OF BEING ON POINT

IS TO KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT
AND YOUR EARS OPEN.

YOU WANT TO SET AN EXAMPLE
FOR THESE CIVILIANS,
OR BECOME ONE?

(Ivers)
THE FOREST LOOKS
ALMOST IDENTICAL

TO THE WILDERNESS PARKS
BACK ON EARTH.

THE LIFE FORMS HERE
ARE BASED ON PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

YOU GET THE SAME AMOUNT
OF SUNLIGHT ON
THE SAME-SIZED PLANET,

SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST
GIVES YOU THE SAME
TYPE OF TREES.

SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST?
EVERY TIME I HEAR THAT PHRASE,
IT GIVES ME THE WILLIES.

I ALWAYS WONDER
IF THE PERSON'S TALKIN'
ABOUT DARWIN OR NIETZSCHE.

OH, YOU'RE A PRETTY
COMPLICATED GUY

FOR SOMEONE IN THE MILITARY.

I'VE BEEN ON LOAN
TO THE COMPANY

FOR A LONG TIME.

EVER SINCE THE GOVERNMENT
STARTED SELLING OFF

EXPLORATION RIGHTS
TO PRIVATE CORPORATIONS.

MAYBE THE CORPORATE INFLUENCE
HAS CORRUPTED ME.

GOD KNOWS IT HAS MY TROOPS.

COMMANDER!
PENDELTON FOUND SOMETHING.

(Ivers)
WHAT DID YOU FIND?

IT LOOKS LIKE
NATURAL PIGMENT.

IT'S PROBABLY
POWDERED SULFUR.

YEAH, BUT WHAT POWDERED IT?

LOCK AND LOAD.
FORM A PERIMETER.

STAY CALM, PEOPLE.

THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME

WE'VE ENCOUNTERED
ALIEN LIFE FORMS.

[creatures chirping]

WHAT THE HELL?
COMMANDER?

HELP!

[screaming]

FIRE!

[explosion]

[guns firing]

NO! HOLD YOUR FIRE!
HOLD YOUR FIRE!

IT'S NOT ALIVE!

IT'S NOT ALIVE!

(Teresa)
HELP ME GET HER DOWN.

IT'S JUST A SPRING TRAP.

(Ivers)
YEAH. PROBABLY BUILT TO CATCH
SOME SORT OF ANIMAL.

YEAH, WELL, IT DID THE JOB
ON HER JUST THE SAME.

COMPANY SAID
THE PLANET WAS EMPTY,
AND SO DID YOU!

THE PROBES DIDN'T SHOW
ANY SIGNS
OF INTELLIGENT LIFE--

YEAH, WELL WHAT ELSE
DIDN'T THE PROBES SHOW, HUH?

...FIRE PITS!
(Ivers)
PENDELTON!

THAT'S ENOUGH.

OH, MAN. WHAT HAVE WE
GOT OURSELVES INTO HERE?

(male narrator)
THERE IS NOTHING WRONG
WITH YOUR TELEVISION.

DO NOT ATTEMPT
TO ADJUST THE PICTURE.

WE ARE NOW CONTROLLING
THE TRANSMISSION.

WE CONTROL THE HORIZONTAL,

AND THE VERTICAL.

WE CAN DELUGE YOU
WITH 1,000 CHANNELS,

OR EXPAND ONE SINGLE IMAGE
TO CRYSTAL CLARITY...

AND BEYOND.

WE CAN SHAPE YOUR VISION

TO ANYTHING
OUR IMAGINATION CAN CONCEIVE.

FOR THE NEXT HOUR,

WE WILL CONTROL
ALL THAT YOU SEE AND HEAR.

YOU ARE ABOUT TO EXPERIENCE
THE AWE AND MYSTERY

WHICH REACHES
FROM THE DEEPEST INNER MIND,

TO THE OUTER LIMITS.

(narrator)
WHEN WE HAVE CONQUERED
INTERSTELLAR SPACE,

WHAT WILL WE GAIN?

A NEW PERSPECTIVE
ON OURSELVES?

OR ONLY A WIDER SCOPE
FOR OUR ARROGANCE?

[metallic clinking]

ALL DUE RESPECT,
COMMANDER.

SHOULDN'T WE BE FALLING BACK
TO THE SHIP?

WE CAN'T COLLECT
MINERAL SAMPLES

COOPED UP IN A SHIP.

BUT MASON WAS KILLED.

THE SAME THING
COULD'VE HAPPENED ON EARTH.

FOR ALL WE KNOW,
THAT TRAP WAS SET

BY HUMANS WHO GOT HERE
AHEAD OF US.

THEY WERE OBVIOUSLY JUST
HUNTING SOME LOCAL ANIMAL.

THAT STAKE WAS MEANT
TO WARN US ABOUT THE TRAP.

OR DRAW US TO IT.

IS SOMETHING LARGER
GOING ON HERE, SEARS?

YOU HAVE SOMETHING
ON YOUR MIND?

IT'S JUST A LONG WAY
BACK TO THE SHIP, SIR.

(Ivers)
AND EVEN LONGER IN THE DARK.

BUT YOU TELL ME,

IF THERE IS SOMETHING
HOSTILE OUT THERE,

WHERE DO WE STAND
A BETTER CHANCE?

PROPERLY DEPLOYED HERE,

OR STUMBLING THROUGH THE DARK,

TRYING TO MAKE IT
BACK TO THE SHIP?

YOU HEARD THE COMMANDER.

LET'S SET UP
A PERIMETER HERE.

PENDELTON, YOU'LL
TAKE FIRST WATCH.

STERNLICHT,
YOU'LL READ SCOPE FOR HIM.

AND I'LL ROTATE
WITH THE COMMANDER--

ME! I'M SECOND IN COMMAND.

I CAN STAND WATCH.

[sighing]

ALL DUE RESPECT, MA'AM,

I REALIZE THAT
THESE EXPEDITIONS

ARE SUPPOSED
TO BE CONTROLLED BY CIVILIANS

SO THAT THE ENVIRONMENT
GETS PROTECTED.

BUT I THINK THIS IS
MORE OF MILITARY QUESTION,
ALL RIGHT?

I WAS CROSS-TRAINED,
JUST LIKE STERNLICHT.

I CAN FILL IN.

YOU HEARD THE LADY.

YES, SIR.

CHECK YOUR WEAPONS
AND MOVE OUT.

[guns clicking]

YOU REALLY THINK THAT TRAP

WAS BUILT BY SOMEBODY
FROM EARTH?

[gun clicking]

IT'S POSSIBLE.

BUT THE MATERIALS

WERE ALL NATIVE
TO THIS PLANET.

CONGRATULATIONS.

TELLING REASSURING LIES

IS ONE OF THE REQUIREMENTS
OF LEADERSHIP.

EVEN IF THEY DIDN'T BUY IT.

[whispering]
STERNLICHT,
DO YOU SEE ANYTHING?

[beeping]

JUST BACKSCATTER.

A LOT OF MINERALS
IN THESE ROCKS.

IT'S GONNA MAKE US RICH.

YEAH, WE JUST GOTTA LIVE
LONG ENOUGH TO CASH THE CHECK.

[radio beeps]

[creatures chattering]

I GOTTA ADMIT,

I WAS NEVER A HAPPY CAMPER
AS A KID.

JUST WHAT EVERY
EXPEDITION NEEDS:

A DISGRUNTLED
XENOBIOLOGIST.

UGH. NO.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA
HOW FRUSTRATING IT IS

BEING A BIOLOGIST
BACK ON EARTH.

THERE ISN'T A NOOK OR CRANNY

THAT ISN'T TAINTED
WITH POLLUTION.

I COULD BE HAPPY HERE.

EXCEPT
WE'RE HERE TO POLLUTE IT.

NOT LIKE EARTH.

THE COLONIZATION AUTHORITY
WON'T ALLOW IT.

[chuckles]
SO THEY TELL ME.

YOU DON'T THINK THEY MEAN IT?

I THINK THEY'D LIKE
TO MEAN IT.

THAT'S WHY THESE EXPEDITIONS
ARE OFFICIALLY CIVILIAN.

BUT EARTH'S ALMOST
OUT OF RESOURCES.

NO ONE'S FOUND
A NEW TITANIUM DEPOSIT

IN 10 YEARS.

PETROLEUM'S JUST A MEMORY.

WELL, ALL THE MORE REASON
FOR THE AUTHORITY
TO MAKE SURE

THAT THE COMPANY
MOVES RESPONSIBLY.

WE CAN'T KEEP STRIP-MINING
EARTH-TYPE PLANETS.

THERE JUST AREN'T
THAT MANY OF 'EM.

I HOPE YOU'RE RIGHT.

I DO LIKE CAMPING OUT
UNDER REAL TREES.

GOOD NIGHT.

GOOD NIGHT.

[creatures chirping]

[clicking]

[thumping]

STERNLICHT,
WHAT'S IN FRONT OF ME?

[whispering]
IS THERE ANYTHING MOVING?

(Sternlicht)
NADA.

COME ON, JAKE.
STEP UP THE POWER.
WHAT DO YOU SEE?

I TOLD YOU, NOTHING.

[beeping]

[creature growling]

SEARS,

I'VE GOT SOMETHING
MOVING ON MY FLANK.

I CAN'T GET A FIX ON IT.
I'VE GOT TO PULL IN.

(Sears)
PENDELTON, HOLD YOUR POSITION.

I SWEAR TO GOD,
I SAW SOMETHING.

[growling continues]

(Sternlicht)
PENDELTON.

STERNLICHT,
WHAT'S ON THE SCOPE?

[beeping]

SGT. SEARS,
I DO HAVE MOVEMENT.

50 METERS IN FRONT
OF PENDELTON.

COMING MY WAY.

(Sears)
COMMANDER, COMMANDER,
WE GOT A PROBLEM.

WHAT?

[beeping]

[creature growls]

[creature roars]

I SAY AGAIN,
I DO HAVE MOVEMENT.
ALL ACROSS MY FRONT.

(Pendelton)
WHERE ARE THEY, JAKE?
GIVE ME A FIX!

(Sternlicht)
SARGE, ARE YOU COMIN'?
PENDELTON!

JAKE!

THEY'RE RIGHT IN FRONT OF US!

CAN'T YOU SEE 'EM?
CAN'T YOU SEE 'EM?

[creature roaring]

OH, LORD!

[gun firing]

(Sternlicht)
NO!

[roaring]

NO. STAY DOWN, STAY DOWN.
WHO'S FIRING?

STERNLICHT, REPORT.

PENDELTON. PENDELTON!

HERE!

HE'S DEAD.

[growls]

[gun firing]

INCOMING!

[creature growls]

[guns firing]

LET'S FALL BACK TO THE SHIP.
LET'S GO, LET'S GO!

[guns firing]

(Ivers)
COME ON!

(Pendelton)
WHICH WAY? WHICH WAY IS IT?

(Ivers)
TALI, LIGHT UP THE SHIP,

GIVE US A BEACON!

[guns continuing to fire]

(Ivers)
TALI, CAN YOU HEAR ME?

SHOW US WHERE YOU ARE!

I'M TURNING ON
THE LANDING LIGHTS.

CAN YOU SEE ME?

THERE IT IS!
GET TO THE COVER!

(Ivers)
SEARS, PENDELTON,
DOWN HERE, THIS WAY,

COME ON, LET'S GO.
TERESA, MOVE IT, MOVE IT!

(Ivers)
GO, GO, GO, GO, GO!

(Ivers)
KEEP IT UP, PEOPLE.
KEEP IT UP, COME ON!

[guns firing]

(Ivers)
PENDELTON, GET GOING!

[explosion rumbling]

[Teresa groaning]

GO WITH HER,
I'LL COVER US.

GO WITH HER!
GO WITH HER!

[groans]

(Teresa)
COMMANDER!

(Sears)
NO, GET BACK TO THE SHIP.

(Teresa)
NO. YOU'VE GOTTA TRY. SEARS!

(Sears)
COME ON, MOVE, MOVE!

[guns firing]

[growling]

(Sears)
TALI, TALI!
WE'RE COMING IN. TALI!

OPEN UP!

[explosion]

COME ON, COME ON, COME ON!

[groans]

[grunting]

(Sears)
COME ON, COME ON!

NOW! GO!

[computers beeping]

[alarm blaring]

I'M ACTIVATING
PERIMETER WEAPONS.

[beeping]

LIFT OFF!

WE CAN'T.
THEY HIT THE MAIN DRIVE.

FIRING!

[guns firing]

WE'RE CLEAR, WE'RE CLEAR.
NO TARGETS.

[instruments beeping]

(Teresa)
1, 2, 3, 4,

1, 2, 3, 4,

1, 2, 3...

HOW'S THE COMMANDER?

NO. COME ON. COME ON.

COME ON. I'LL FIX YOU UP.
1, 2, 3, 4.

1, 2, 3, 4.

[mumbling]

TERESA, LOOK AT
THE INSTRUMENTS.

NO. 1, 2, 3, 4.

[panting]

NO. NO.

HE'S DEAD.

[panting]

(Pendelton)
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

JUST CHECKING THE SAMPLES
YOU GUYS COLLECTED

BEFORE THE ATTACK.

(Tali)
HERE'S SOME IRONY FOR YOU.

YOU KNOW WHAT THE ANALYZER
SAYS THIS IS?

GOLD.

AND THIS IS PITCHBLENDE
FULL OF URANIUM ISOTOPES.

SUN'S COMING UP.
SOMEBODY GOT A PLAN?

IS THERE ANY MOVEMENT
OUT THERE?

[computer beeping]

THE SHIP'S GUNS
MUST HAVE SCARED 'EM OFF.

(Sears)
OR THEY ONLY COME OUT
AT NIGHT.

THEN I SAY
WE REPAIR THE DRIVE,

AND BLAST THE HELL
OUT OF HERE.

DO YOU THINK
THAT'S THE BEST IDEA?

THE COMPANY SPENT A LOT
OF MONEY GETTING US HERE,

AND WE'VE ALREADY LOST
HALF THE CREW.

NOW, WHAT DO YOU THINK
THEY'RE GONNA SAY

WHEN WE GET HOME EMPTY-HANDED,
AND TELL 'EM WE DIDN'T EVEN
TRY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM?

THE COLONIZATION AUTHORITY
MIGHT EVEN BRING US UP
ON CHARGES.

IS THAT REALLY
WHAT'S BOTHERING YOU?

OR ARE YOU THINKING

WITH MINERAL DEPOSITS
LIKE THAT,

AND HALF THE CREW GONE,

THE REWARD
FOR A SUCCESSFUL SURVEY

COULD COME TO
$4 MILLION APIECE?

[sighing]

THE THOUGHT
DID CROSS MY MIND.

SCREW THAT! MAYBE
YOU DIDN'T NOTICE, SEARS,

BUT THE ONLY THINGS
COLLECTING A REWARD
AROUND HERE

ARE 7 FEET TALL,
AND CAN MUNCH US FOR LUNCH.

(Sears)
IVERS DYING DOES NOT
CHANGE THE MISSION.

IT TAKES ONE MAN
TO REPAIR THE DRIVE.

TALL CAN DO THAT

UNDER PROTECTION
OF THE SHIP'S GUNS.

AND IN DAYLIGHT,
WE'RE NOT GONNA
HAVE ANY PROBLEMS.

MAYBE I WON'T,
BUT WHAT EXACTLY
ARE YOU GONNA BE DOING?

WE'RE GONNA SUIT UP
IN CLASS-2 WEAPONRY
AND DO A LITTLE RECON.

CLASS-2 WEAPONRY?

YOU BET.

(Sears)
LAYERED ARMOR,

PLASMA CANNONS.

ENOUGH FIREPOWER TO CONVERT
BAGHDAD TO CHRIST.

YOU'RE 2ND IN COMMAND,
YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT? PEN.

THE COMPANY
WAS ONLY AUTHORIZED

TO CONDUCT
A CIVILIAN EXPEDITION.

YOU WERE JUST SUPPOSED
TO PROVIDE SECURITY SERVICES.

YOU PUT ON 1 OF THOSE SUITS,

AND YOU'RE GONNA FEEL
PLENTY SECURE.

NOTHING THOSE
WALKING LIZARDS HAVE

CAN PENETRATE THAT ARMOR.

YOU HOPE.

ALL I SAW LAST NIGHT
WAS SMALL-ARMS FIRE,

AND THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY
TO CHECK IT OUT.

BUT WE CAN'T CARRY
SURVEY EQUIPMENT
IF WE'RE ALL SUITED UP.

AND WE CAN'T COMPLETE
THE SURVEY

UNTIL WE KNOW
WHAT WE'RE UP AGAINST.

YOU BUY THIS?

[sighing]

OH. I'M SORRY, TALI.
YOU'RE RIGHT.

YOU'RE IN COMMAND, MA'AM.

NOW. DO WE HIDE IN THE SHIP
WHILE TALI FIXES THE DRIVE,

OR DO WE GET OUT THERE
AND DO OUR JOB?

[creatures chirping]

(Sears)
IS THIS WHAT I THINK IT IS?

(Teresa)
YEAH. I THINK
IT'S THEIR BLOOD.

WE'RE FOLLOWING
BLOOD TRAILS? WHY?

BECAUSE I WANT
TO RECOVER AN ALIEN BODY.

OH, GREAT.
AND WHAT IF THE FRIENDS

OF THE DEARLY DEPARTED
OBJECT?

ALL THE BETTER.

SEARS, I AM NOT
AUTHORIZING YOU

TO INITIATE HOSTILITIES.

INITIATE HOSTILITIES?

EXCUSE ME, MA'AM,
BUT MAYBE YOU NOTICED

A FEW OF US HAD TO SIT OUT
ON THE HIKE TODAY.

GUYS.

IF THIS IS A BLOOD TRAIL,
IT'S GETTIN' THICKER.

SPREAD OUT.

WHERE'S SEARS?

(Pendelton)
I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING.
MY FACEPLATE'S FOGGING UP.

(Sears)
DON'T USE IT TILL YOU HAVE TO.

WHAT...?

KEEP YOUR FACEPLATE OPEN
UNTIL WE COME UNDER FIRE.

OVER THERE.

[Sears whispering]
PENDELTON.

[whispering]
COVER OUR 6.

NO PROBLEM.

YOU JUST HAVE
ALL THE FUN YOU WANT.

EASY.

NOW!

HOLD YOUR FIRE.
THEY'RE DEAD.

(Teresa)
SEE? THEY'RE BLED OUT.

YOU SEE, PENDELTON?

IF YOU SHOOT THEM, THEY DIE.

WE'RE NOT GONNA HAVE
ANY TROUBLE HERE.

DON'T YOU THINK?

[grunts]

(Teresa)
NO. I DON'T AGREE.

(Tali)
THE DRIVE'S FIXED HERE,
SO WE CAN BLAST OUT OF HERE.

THERE'S NO NEED TO.
LOOK AT THESE GUYS.

THEIR CLOTHES
ARE AS PRIMITIVE

AS THE TRAP THAT NAILED MASON.

YOU SEE THEIR GUNS?

THEY'RE OURS.

(Sears)
YEAH. THEY TOOK 'EM
FROM STERNLICHT

WHEN THEY CLAWED HIM TO DEATH.

THESE AREN'T BOOGIEMEN
WITH INCREDIBLE POWERS.

AND THEY SURE AS HELL
DON'T HAVE TECHNOLOGY.

THAT DOESN'T MEAN
THEY'RE NOT INTELLIGENT.

NO ONE'S SAYING
THEY'D LOSE A POKER GAME

TO THE NATIVES
ON MY LAST GIG,

BUT WE SOLVED
THAT PROBLEM, TOO.

YOU WANT TO GO TO WAR
WITH THE NATIVES HERE?

WHY NOT?

WE HAVE A RIGHT
TO DEFEND OURSELVES.

THEY STRUCK FIRST.

YOU JUST SAID
THAT THE ONLY WEAPONS
THEY HAD WERE OURS.

MAYBE STERNLICHT FIRED FIRST,
AND THEY WERE JUST
DEFENDING THEMSELVES

WHICH IS THEIR RIGHT TO DO.
IT'S THEIR PLANET.

WHAT ABOUT
SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST?

LAST I HEARD,

YOU WERE PREACHING
TO IVERS ABOUT THAT.

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH EVOLUTIONARY THEORY.

IT DOESN'T?

EARTH HAS
A SUPERIOR CULTURE.

BUT WE'RE RUNNING OUT
OF EVERYTHING WE NEED

TO MAINTAIN IT.

WE'RE DIGGING UP
200-YEAR-OLD AUTOMOBILE TIRES

TO RECYCLE THEM.

THIS PLANET'S JUST
SITTIN' HERE GOING TO WASTE.

NOW I ASK YOU, DO WE STARVE?

OR DO WE TAKE
WHAT WE NEED TO SURVIVE?

NO. WE NEGOTIATE
WITH THE NATIVES HERE,

OR WE JUST FIND
ANOTHER PLANET.

NEGOTIATING WITH THESE THINGS

WOULD BE LIKE NEGOTIATING
WITH NEANDERTHALS.

AND TO WHAT END?

YOU'RE JUST SETTING US UP
FOR AN ENDLESS CYCLE

OF WASTE, POLLUTION, AND WAR.

MY WAY FOLLOWS
THE LAWS OF NATURE.

BUT I SHOULDN'T HAVE
TO TELL YOU THAT.

YOU'RE THE BIOLOGIST,
AREN'T YOU, TERESA?

IS THAT THE WAY
YOU USUALLY ADDRESS

AN EXPEDITION'S COMMANDER?

OH, COME ON.

YOU DON'T REALLY BELIEVE
YOU WERE EVER GONNA BE
IN COMMAND HERE.

YOU'RE JUST WINDOW DRESSING,

SO THE COMPANY CAN SAY
THEY'RE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.

YOU'RE TALKING YOURSELF
INTO A TRIAL FOR MUTINY.

UNLESS YOU'RE REMOVED
FOR CAUSE.

ALL RIGHT. THAT'S IT.
I'M RELIEVING YOU OF DUTY.

TOO LATE, TERESA.
I SAID IT FIRST.

I AM ACCUSING YOU
OF INCOMPETENCE
IN YOUR COMMAND,

AND COWARDICE
IN THE FACE OF THE ENEMY.

YOU WERE SO SCARED
LAST NIGHT,

IVERS PRACTICALLY HAD
TO HOLD YOUR HAND

COMING DOWN THAT I MOUNTAIN.

THAT'S NOT TRUE!

YOU WEREN'T THERE, TALI.
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

IVERS SPENT MORE TIME
COVERING HER

THAN HE DID SETTING UP
OUR DEFENSE.

THAT'S ENOUGH!

YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT, IT IS.

AND AS SENIOR
SECURITY COMMANDER,

I AM VOTING
WE REMOVE YOU FOR CAUSE.

I STILL DON'T SEE
WHY WE CAN'T JUST LIFT OFF

AND FILE A REPORT
FROM HYPER-SPACE.

SO THE NEXT SHIP CAN COLLECT
THE COMMISSION? HUH?

WE'LL BE OUT $4 MILLION EACH.

$5 MILLION, MAYBE,
IF SHE'S DISQUALIFIED.

5 MILLION BUCKS, TALI.

YOU THINK THAT MIGHT HELP
YOUR FAMILY OUT, HUH?

(Teresa)
ALL RIGHT.
WHY DON'T YOU TRY THIS?

YOU FIRE
ON ONE MORE ALIEN NATIVE,

I WILL BRING YOU UP ON CHARGES
BEFORE THE AUTHORITY.

THEY ALREADY TRIED THAT
WITH ME IN THE AMAZON, TERESA.

THE OPPOSITION WAS HUMAN,
AND THE CHARGES DIDN'T STICK.

EARTH NEEDS
THE RESOURCES.

THAT'S THE REAL REASON
THEY SENT ME AND THAT LOCKER
FULL OF WEAPONS.

I'LL BELIEVE THAT

WHEN I HEAR IT
FROM THE AUTHORITY.

TAKE HIM INTO CUSTODY.

WHAT ABOUT MY RIGHTS?

WHAT ABOUT MY RIGHT
TO A FAIR TRIAL?

YOU'RE THE REASON
WE'RE IN THIS MESS.

YOU'RE THE ONE
THAT TOLD US

THERE WAS NO INTELLIGENT LIFE
DOWN THERE.

YOU'RE THE ONE
THAT HELD IVERS UP

LONG ENOUGH
TO GET HIM KILLED.

NOW, THE ONLY WAY
WE CAN MAKE THIS RIGHT

IS TO GO PACIFY THE NATIVES
WHO JUMPED US FIRST.

ALL IN FAVOR

OF FINISHING THE MISSION
AND COLLECTING THE BOUNTY,

RAISE YOUR HANDS.

I'M SORRY

WELL, I'M NOT.

SUIT UP
AND CHARGE YOUR GUNS.

MS. JANOVICH,
YOU ARE RELIEVED OF COMMAND.

(Sears)
IF YOU WANT TO FOSTER
AN UNDERSTANDING

BETWEEN MAN AND ALIEN
AND MAYBE SALVAGE YOUR CAREER,

[grunts]

I SUGGEST YOU
SCAN THOSE THINGS

AND TELL US
WHAT WE'RE UP AGAINST.

WE MOVE IN 5.

[door closes]

(Sears)
IF I WERE YOU, TERESA,
I'D KEEP THE SHIP SEALED

AND THE WEAPONS ON AUTOMATIC.

YOU BET I WILL

OH, DON'T WORRY,

I GOT A REMOTE TRANSMITTER.

WE CAN DISARM THE SHIP'S GUNS
IF YOU DON'T DO IT FOR US.

OH, AND THE FLIGHT CONTROLS
ARE LOCKED OUT.

SCREW YOU!

THANKS FOR THE OFFER,
BUT YOU'RE NOT MY TYPE.

[radio clicks]

[sighs]

[instrument beeping]

WHAT THE HELL GOOD
ARE THESE SUITS FOR?

I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING,
OR HEAR.

JUST COVER OUR LEFT,
OR I'LL SHOOT YOU MYSELF.

SEARS.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE
THEY'RE LOOKIN'
FOR THEIR FRIENDS.

YEAH.

YEAH, THAT
OR LEADING US INTO A TRAP.

YEAH. WELL, NOTHING THEY HAVE

CAN PENETRATE THIS ARMOR.

NOT UNLESS
YOU'RE VERY UNLUCKY.

YEAH, GREAT.
THANKS FOR THE NEWS BULLETIN.

JUST HOW LUCKY

ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE
FEELIN' TODAY, HUH?

JUST SHUT UP
AND COVER OUR FLANK.

YOU...

[bleeps]

SCAN 1-1

IS OF AN UNIDENTIFIED
INTELLIGENT SPECIES

[beeping]

MASSING APPROXIMATELY
150 KILOS.

MEASURING APPROXIMATELY
200 CENTIMETERS TALL.

DESPITE ITS
REPTILIAN APPEARANCE,

THE SPECIMEN EXHIBITS
SKULL AND SKELETAL STRUCTURE

SIMILAR TO MAMMALIAN
LIFE ON EARTH,

INCLUDING HUMAN LIFE.

[buzzing]

TISSUE SAMPLE 1-1

IS FROM THE LEFT SUPERIOR LIMB
OF THE SUBJECT,

REPRESENTING MUSCLE MASS.

I'M SECTIONING IT
FOR MOLECULAR ANALYSIS.

[grunts]

[grunting]

THERE THEY ARE!

FRY 'EM!

[guns firing]

CUT THEM OFF!

[creatures roaring]

[screaming]

[explosion]

[growling]

(Sears)
ALL RIGHT, MOVE IN,
WE'VE GOT 'EM!

[screaming]

(Sears)
WE GOT 'EM, WE GOT 'EM.
MOVE IN!

[panting]

ALL RIGHT.

(Sears)
GUN LIGHTS ON.
ALL RIGHT?

YOU MEAN, WE'RE GOIN' IN?

NO, YOU'RE GOIN' IN.

I DON'T LIKE THIS.

THIS CAVE MUST BE THE REASON
WE DIDN'T SPOT THE SETTLEMENT
FROM ORBIT.

IF WE CATCH
THE WHOLE TRIBE HERE,
WE CAN END IT.

YOU WANT TO TAKE ON
A WHOLE TRIBE?

YOU WANT TO FEEL THIS WAY
EVERY TIME YOU WALK
INTO A FOREST

WITH A SENSOR PACK?

NOW, CHECK THE RIGHT.

MOVE.

EMPTY.

THEN ROLL FORWARD
TO THE NEXT BRANCH.

COME ON, BOYS.
BY THE NUMBERS.

ANYTHING?

(Pendelton)
SEARS!

(Sears)
THAT'S MORE LIKE IT.

NOW WE GOT 'EM.

[creatures exclaiming]

[gun fires]

[roaring]

[groans]

[guns firing]

[screaming]

[whining]

[clicks]

[gibbering]

WHAT YOU DOING WITH THAT?
PRAYING?

[creature whining]

GOOD.

NOW, LET'S GET
THE SURVEY PACKS,

AND COMPLETE THE MISSION.

WHAT IS THAT?

(Sears)
RELIGIOUS TOTEM, I DON'T KNOW.

WHATEVER IT IS, GRAB IT!

IS THAT
WHAT I THINK IT IS?

I DON'T KNOW.

IT WOULD TAKE A SENSOR PACK
TO BE SURE, BUT...

YEAH, I THINK IT'S GOLD.

HEY, IT'S KIND OF WARM,
DON'T YOU THINK?

NOW, WHILE THE SAMPLING KIT
IS OPEN,

I WILL PROCEED
TO COLLECT TISSUE SAMPLE 2-1,

FROM THE WOUND AREA
ON THE SECOND ALIEN SUBJECT.

THE WOUND AREA IS LOCATED
ON THE VENTRAL...

WHERE IS THE WOUND?

AND WHERE IS THE BLOOD?

THE WOUND WAS VENTRAL.
IT WAS VENTRAL.

[low growling]

[roars]

(Sears)
HEY, YOU'LL BE HAPPY
TO HEAR, TERESA,

THAT WE'VE ACHIEVED
PEACE IN OUR TIME.

TERESA?

TERESA?

WOMEN.

[creature roaring]

SEARS! PENDELTON! TALI!

IS THIS MIKE OPEN?

[growling]

[roaring]

NO!

[whimpering]

(Teresa)
WHAT...

[whining]

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

WHAT ARE YOU...

[whining]

[creature gurgling]

WATER?

OH, OH.

[creature continues whining]

NOW, EASY. EASY.

THERE. YEAH, EASY.

EASY. THERE YOU GO.

OK. OK.

YES.

(Sears)
HEY, TERESA.
ARE YOU MONITORING US?

NO! NO! DON'T WORRY.

I WILL NOT LET HIM HURT YOU.

TURN ON YOUR DAMN MIKE.

IT'S OK.

[whining]

TERESA?

YOU BETTER NOT BE
TRYING SOMETHING.

I'VE GOTTA GET YOU
OUT OF HERE.

[creature continues groaning]

EMERGENCY RADIO,
CONCENTRATED FOOD...

LET'S SEE,
PLANET LIKE THIS,

A COLONY SHIP
WILL ONLY SHOW UP

IN MAYBE 3, 4 MONTHS.
I NEED THESE.

[creature exclaiming]

LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.
LET'S GET YOU OUT OF HERE.

YOUR WOUNDS WEREN'T AS SEVERE
AS THE OTHER ONE, SO...

ALL RIGHT. UH,
YOU CAN REGENERATE
YOUR SOFT TISSUE,

BUT NOT YOUR BONES,
NOT THAT FAST. OK.

HMM. HERE.

[exclaims]

NO--NO--NO--NO.
NO, NO, NO. IT'S OK.

IT'S OK. LOOK. LOOK.

WATCH. I'LL SHOW YOU.

OK? SEE? SEE?

[whining]

UNDERSTAND?

OK.

YOU FIGURED OUT
HOW TO USE A RIFLE,

YOU CAN FIGURE OUT
HOW TO USE THIS.

(Sears)
WE'RE INBOUND, TERESA,

SO YOU MIGHT AS WELL
ANSWER ME.

(Teresa)
HURRY. COME ON.

TURN ON YOUR DAMN RADIO!

WE GOTTA GET OUT OF HERE.

YOU BETTER NOT BE TRYING
TO BLOCK THE HATCH, TERESA.

TERESA?

[creature exclaims]

OH!

DON'T TRY
AND STOP ME, SEARS.

WHERE'D YOU GET THE GUN?
YOU ROBBING THE DEAD NOW?

JUST LET US GO,
AND I WON'T SHOOT YOU.

LET US?

[creature whining]

SO YOU AND THAT THING

CAN GO WARN ITS FRIENDS
IN THE NEXT VALLEY?

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO,
TELL THEM OUR WEAKNESSES?

TELL THEM HOW
TO DISABLE THE SHIP?

IS THAT WHAT
YOU'RE GONNA DO, TERESA?

I WOULDN'T DO THAT TO YOU.

OH, BUT YOU'D SHOOT ME.

WELL, IF I HAD MY CHOICE,

I'D MUCH RATHER
YOU SELL US OUT

THAN SHOOT ME IN THE HEAD.

THEN JUST LET US LEAVE.

COME ON, TERRY.

I KNOW
YOU'RE UNDER A LOT OF STRESS.

BUT WE'RE STILL
YOUR OWN KIND, RIGHT?

MY KIND DOESN'T KILL
HELPLESS NATIVES!

WELL, THEN,
YOU MUST NOT BE HUMAN.

'CAUSE THAT'S ALL
WE'VE EVER DONE.

MANIFEST DESTINY,
WHITE MAN'S BURDEN,

CALL IT WHAT YOU WANT.

BUT HALF THE WORLD
WOULD STILL BE HUNTING BUFFALO

IF THE OTHER HALF

HADN'T BROUGHT
IT CIVILIZATION.

YEAH, AND KILLED THEM
IN THE PROCESS.

WE DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT HERE.

IT'S ALREADY DONE.

IT'S THE ONLY WAY
WE COULD'VE FINISHED
THE SURVEY.

YOU SHOULD'VE WAITED.

LET THE FOLLOW-ON SHIPS
NEGOTIATE A DEAL.

NOW YOU DON'T KNOW
WHERE THIS IS GONNA END.

BUT I DO.

IT ENDED IN THE CAVE.

WITH HALF THE WORLD
EATING SYNTHETIC FOOD,

DO YOU THINK THEY'RE
REALLY GONNA CARE

WHAT HAPPENED
TO A FEW NATIVES?

PEOPLE STILL CARE.

WE MOVED BEYOND YOUR KIND
OF THINKING 100 YEARS AGO.

BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE ME
SOLVED THE PROBLEM

100 YEARS AGO.

BECAUSE PEOPLE LIKE ME
DID THE DIRTY WORK

OF CIVILIZING THE PLANET.

WHY ELSE DO YOU THINK
THEY SENT ME UP HERE,

WITH ALL THIS FIREPOWER, HUH?

STAND DOWN, TERESA.

NO.

HAND ME THE GUN.

TALI, PENDELTON,

WHICH SIDE OF THIS
ARE YOU REALLY ON?

COME ON, TERRY. DON'T DO THIS.

GIVE ME THE GUN, DAMN IT!

LET'S JUST TALK THIS OVER.

NOTHING HAS TO BE
DECIDED YET.

I WILL SHOOT YOU!

[groans]

RUN! RUN!

[whining]

(Teresa)
RUN! RUN!

[creature gibbering]

NO! DON'T HURT HIM! DON'T!

DON'T!

[creature sobbing]

[screams]

[panting]

YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THIS.

ACTUALLY, WE DID.

SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST.

IT'S THE LAW HERE,
SAME AS EVERYWHERE ELSE.

WHAT IS THAT?

RELIGIOUS TOTEM. UM,

THE LAST ONE WAS PRAYING
IN FRONT OF IT

WHEN WE FOUND HIM.

SEARS SAYS
THE ONLY QUESTION NOW

IS WHETHER IT'S WORTH MORE
AS AN ARTIFACT OR MELTED DOWN.

[instrument beeping]

HOW COULD YOU, TALI?

THEY'RE JUST ANIMALS.

WITH RELIGION?

PUTS THEM A LITTLE AHEAD
OF CHIMPANZEES,
DON'T YOU THINK?

LISTEN.
I WON'T LET SEARS HURT YOU.

YOU'LL GET HOME IN ONE PIECE.

JUST DON'T ASK
FOR ANYTHING MORE.

[door opens]

(Sears)
TIME FOR A VICTORY PARTY.

WHAT HAPPENS IF THE COMPANY
SIDES WITH TERESA AGAINST US?

NEVER HAPPEN.
THEY'D LOSE
THE SURVEY RIGHTS.

SO DRINK UP, BOYS.

TAL, GOOD JOB.

SO, WE'LL HAVE THE SURVEY
COMPLETED BY THURSDAY,

$4 MILLION EACH.

NOT BAD FOR A WEEK'S WORK.

[chuckles]

[whirring]

[beeping]

ALL WORK AND NO PLAY
MAKES TERESA A DULL GIRL.

I SHOULD HAVE
DONE THIS BEFORE.

IT'S AS MUCH MY FAULT
AS IT IS YOURS.

WE'LL GET PLENTY OF TIME
ON THE RIDE HOME.

I DON'T THINK SO.

LOOK, TERRY.
I'M NOT GONNA HURT YOU.

HELL, THROW ME A KISS
AND I'LL TELL 'EM
YOU STAYED IN COMMAND--

ADAM, YOU HAVE GOT
TO LISTEN TO ME.

TERESA, IT'S OVER. ALL RIGHT?

MATCH STORIES WITH US,
AND YOU GET
TO KEEP YOUR COMMISSION.

[beeping]

LOOK AT THE SCANS
OF THEIR HEADS. LOOK!

THEIR CRANIAL SUTURES
AREN'T CLOSED. LOOK AT THIS.

WE GOTTA GET THIS THING
OFF THE SHIP.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKIN' ABOUT?

[alarm blaring]

SEARS?

WHAT IS THAT ALARM?

WE'RE BEING SCANNED.
MILLIMETER RANGE.

(Sears)
YOU MEAN SEARCH RADAR?

EXCEPT I'VE NEVER SEEN
A MODULATION LIKE THIS BEFORE.

OR AN ENERGY LEVEL THIS HIGH.

TALI, GET A SENSOR ON THIS.
SCAN IT AT THE SAME FREQUENCY.

(Teresa)
MY LAB INSTRUMENTS SAY
IT'S PULSING WITH ENERGY.

IT'S RESPONDING.

IT'S NOT A RELIGIOUS ICON.

IT'S AN EMERGENCY
LOCATOR BEACON.

IT'S A WHAT?

[buzzing]

SEARS, WE'RE GETTING
A GRAVITY SPIKE

JUST ABOVE US IN ORBIT.

UNLOCK THE PANEL
AND FIRE UP THE DRIVE.

SOMEBODY'S OPENING
A JUMP POINT.

IT'S A COLONY SHIP
IT'S GOT TO BE
A COLONY SHIP, DOESN'T IT?

THERE'S NOT GONNA BE
ANY COLONY SHIP!

DOES THAT LOOK LIKE
A HUMAN GATE TO YOU?

TALI, PREPARE FOR LIFT-OFF!

POWERING UP.

OH, GOD.

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?

(Tali)
I THINK IT'S A PROBE.

(Tali)
THEY WERE ABLE TO LAUNCH THIS
FROM HYPER-SPACE.

THAT'S WAY BEYOND
OUR TECHNOLOGY

TARGET IT.
ALL SHIP'S GUNS NOW!

(Sears)
TALI, GET US OUT OF HERE!

[beeping]

I CAN'T GET A LOCK!

LIFT-OFF IN 60 SECONDS.

COME ON!

HERE IT COMES!

WHAT'S IT DOING?

IT'S LOOKING FOR SURVIVORS.

(Teresa)
WE'VE GOTTA DESTROY
THE COMPUTER.

NO! NO! IF WE DO THAT,
WE CAN'T GET HOME.

WE'RE NOT GOING HOME.

IT'S TRYING TO DOWNLOAD
WHERE WE CAME FROM.

IT'S LOOKING FOR EARTH!

THE VICTIMS YOU KILLED
DIDN'T COME FROM HERE!

THAT'S WHY WE DIDN'T SEE
SIGNS OF SETTLEMENTS.

TALL! HELP HER PULL
THE MAIN BUS! GO! GO! GO!

IT'S OVER HERE.

[buzzes]

[roaring]

[grunting]

[creature gibbering]

THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE.
THEY--THEY HAD NO TECHNOLOGY!

DON'T YOU GET IT?

THEIR CRANIAL SUTURES
WEREN'T CLOSED.

IF THEY WERE HUMAN,

THEY WOULD'VE BEEN
BETWEEN 10 AND 15 YEARS OLD.

YOU KILLED A BUNCH
OF BOY SCOUTS

ON A CAMPING TRIP.

[creature roars]

[beeping]

THEY DOWNLOADED US.
THEY KNOW.

DRIVES HAVE THRUST.

GET US OFF!

(Tali)
FIRING.

[engine roars]

UH...

[alarm continues ringing]

IF ONE OF THEM HAD LIVED,
MAYBE WE WOULD HAVE MADE IT.

[fires]

NO!

(narrator)
CULTURAL RELATIVITY.

IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE
A COMPLICATED THEORY.

INDEED, IT CAN BE AS SIMPLE,

AND AS DEADLY,

AS A TWO-EDGED SWORD.
