All language subtitles for Project Blue Book S02E03 Area 51

Previously on Project Blue Book... Cigar
chain craft new, it takes out an

airplane. The military is hiding the
truth.

The government is involved in a massive
conspiracy to cover up the evidence of

visitors from other worlds. When we try
to expose the truth, that makes us

enemies of the state.

What does the FBI want with civilian UFO
groups?

They think we're dangerous.

They don't usually move this fast.

I want Project Blue Book to formally
close the Roswell incident.

Closing Roswell means reopening it. You
put Blue Book in that position and they

fail, those guys won't be the only ones
to lose their jobs.

How long can you pretend to believe in
something that you know is not true?

Get off!

Sergeant William?

The aliens took him.

Its size and its appearance, this thing
came from outer space.

They don't have reason to believe that
there's some form of life in it.

Do you think they're recreating the
Missouri crash?

Mm -mm. The saucer is the wrong shape.

This looks like the Helena encounter to
me.

But that was a hoax.

What do you think the Missouri incident
was? There were 12 witnesses, Alan. You

think they were all lying?

I really know your stuff.

Well, I am typing up all your research,
Professor.

No, this goes beyond my research.

This is your UFO group, yes?

Well,

you seem to be really enjoying it.

It's been really good for me.

And honestly, with everything we've been
through, I think...

You've seen how far the government will
go to keep their secret.

If they wanted to, they could ruin you.

I know the risks, I do.

But if I don't do this, you know, who
will? Even if it wasn't one piece, would

anyone still walk around after a
concussion like that?

Oh.

You hate this.

No, no, I wouldn't say that.

Loathe might be a better word.

Let's just go home.

Hello?

Vicki? Mrs. Hynek?

I'm so sorry. I didn't know what to do.

Why? What's wrong?

Is Jill okay?

Um... Oh, General.

Doctor, Mrs. Hynek.

So sorry to show up unannounced like
this.

It's probably best if we talk in
private.

Sure. Uh, maybe... Of course.

Vicki, would you...

We had an incident near Nellis Air Force
Base.

Nevada. A place called Groom Lake.

A couple of our guys, they seem to have
sighted a craft.

One of them is still missing.

But there's a wrinkle.

It happened on part of the base run by
the CIA.

The who?

It's a fairly new agency.

By the way, you never heard of them?
Truman put them together after the war,

mostly just to collect intel.

But my experience of them is that they
think they're more than that.

We fight over the same turf now.

We still have to play nice, especially
now with a new administration coming in.

We make waves.

Eisenhower can just say he doesn't need
Blue Book anymore.

I'm sorry, but are we to believe that
someone has been abducted? Is that what

I'm hearing?

No. What you're hearing is I need you
two to close this case quickly and

cleanly. Is that understood?

Yes, sir.

Pack your bags if you need to.

The wheel's up in an hour. You can sleep
on the plane.

Got to borrow them again, Mrs. Hynek.

Duty calls.

Thank you for your hospitality, ma 'am.

Someone's supposed to meet us here.

I don't even know where here is.

Sorry, guys. I always underestimate that
drive.

Ah, Dr. Heine, I guess.

A pleasure.

Which makes you Captain Michael Quinn.

Look, we're very excited to have you
both here.

We're supposed to be meeting someone
from Central Intelligence.

Daniel Banks?

Let's call me Dan.

Come on. We're burning daylight.

You know, I read a lot of your case
work.

Very provocative, but very thorough.

Lubbock especially was out. How have you
read our case files?

A big part of the CIA's job is about
gathering intel, Captain. Are we headed

Nellis? No, Nellis is that way, toward
Vegas.

You guys ever been?

Oh, you got to go.

It's like the Wild Wild West over there.

Gambling, the girls.

Girls.

Oh, you're married. I'm sorry.

No, no, no. We've talked about going.

Well, when you do, take her to see
Sinatra at the Sands.

Then you'll feel like teenagers in love
all over again.

You more of a male tourmate fan, I'm
guessing.

Nope.

Haven't interacted much with the agency.

Just trying to get my read, that's all.

You mean you're wondering how a guy like
me got the job?

See, sensual intelligence is all about
staying off the radar, operating in the

shadows.

I look like you, I'm what people expect.

You're supposed to be smart enough to
realize that, mix things up a bit.

But the truth, though, I was the
smartest man for the job.

So if we're not headed to Nellis, where
are we going?

To support the desert here.

They call it Groom Lake.

Army, Air Force, Navy, they all have the
Philippines here.

Are we out of gas?

Nope. Just need to knock to enter the
CIA's little neck of the woods.

12 -484 requesting permission to bring
in my guests for dinner.

12 -484, you are cleared for entry.

Copy that.

Congratulations, gentlemen. You have
arrived.

Arrived where?

I don't see a base anywhere.

This is just the outer perimeter.

Without my clearance, you'd be shot.

Welcome to Area 51.

The

CIA

initially wanted to handle this
internally, but... When I heard the

story, I said, no way. We need the
experts.

That's you guys.

What exactly goes on here at Area 51?

Well, there's a cover story of the
disinformation campaign.

I'm not following.

Same as classified.

And I'm sure the captain's heard a few
rumors.

Experimental weapons and aircraft.

Boys playing with toys, basically.

Ah, boys with toys. Yeah.

Something like that.

So this Sergeant William, a good man
according to his CO.

After he reported Miller missing, we
sent out some of our guys, and they

Willingham wandering about five clicks
north.

Had no idea where he was.

This talk about aliens hasn't changed
the story one bit. Wandering around the

desert, heat stroke can cause
hallucinations. That's the thing.

The doctors who examined him said all
fluids were normal.

Didn't even have a sunburn.

Still no sign of the corporal? We had
spotted planes flying at Grissom

yesterday. Nothing.

I thought I said bring the good stuff.

That's okay. This will do. Thank you.

Liquid London.

That's not how I roll, Captain.

Sergeant.

It's Captain Quinn and Dr. Hynek.

Project Blue Book.

He came to have just one glass.

who didn't think I was crazy.

My nerves have been like this ever
since. It's okay. It's all right. It's

right. You're in good hands now, okay?

This is their specialty.

Just tell them what you told me.

What you remember.

Sure.

Miller and I were tied to Sector Bravo.

It's everywhere.

See? Miller was goofing around like
always.

Think you're funny, huh?

No, sir. I think it's crazy we're out
here in the first place.

Looking for scraps of metal from a
missile that blew up two miles.

That way?

We've been out there all day in 100
-degree heat.

Well, it was getting on my nerves.

You go find something, then I'll give
you a drink.

Corporal.

I don't know how long it was after.
Maybe a minute, maybe more.

I lost track of time.

And then, huh?

And this wind came out of nowhere.

It felt almost electric.

And I heard it again.

Better not be messing with me again. She
was screaming.

I ran up to the top of the ridge.

I looked up and a ship appeared in front
of me.

The girl was sucked up inside.

And then, uh...

I don't remember anything after that.

You ever hear anything like that before?

No, we've heard all kinds of stories.

But nothing like this.

I'm going to sectionate the poor bastard
if he keeps talking like that.

Thing is, I believe him.

Well, I mean, it's clear to me that he
certainly believes he had some kind of

encounter. You think we should all go
out there?

We've had our guys combing that desert
nonstop.

No, no, no, no. We need to go with the
sergeant. I mean, sometimes revisiting

the scene can help trigger a memory.

Smart.

We'll just need to get you guys cleared
first.

For what? The desert?

See, this whole place operates on a
compartmentalized information protocol.

It means no one goes anywhere without
authorization.

How about the john?

You have snipers in there, too.

What do you know about Groom Lake?

Terry Milton takes this photo of... You
just say Groom Lake?

You know it?

Of course I know it. I'm just impressed
that you do.

I heard about a sighting there.

From your husband?

From a research.

Oh. That's not surprising.

Get a decent view of the base, you can
catch a UFO show every night.

What about abductions?

No, it's not like that. These UFOs,
they're friendlies.

Friendlies?

You know that craft they recovered in
47?

Roswell. Well, it didn't stay there
long.

They sent that thing to Groom Lake.

That is where they reverse -engineered
it to make our very own flying saucers.

So that's what people are seeing in the
sky?

I mean...

These days, you never know what the
government is capable of.

Besides, if you're going to hide a UFO,
where better than the middle of the

desert?

Soldiers were sent out here to gather
debris.

A lot of desert out here.

A lot of places for a soldier to go
missing.

Well, you've seen our security, Captain.
Soldiers don't just go missing.

Any of this look familiar?

I'm sorry.

Well, it looks the same to me, too.

Well, it's not all about what you see,
Captain.

Memories are a combination of cognitive,
sensory, and emotional elements all

working in tandem.

So you never know what may trigger a
memory trace.

Dr. Lashley, right?

On Ingrams. Yeah, you familiar with his
work?

Neuroscience was a bit of a hobby of
mine.

I know.

Handsome in well red.

Something to shoot for, Captain.

Over here.

Where is it, Sergeant?

I'm not sure. It's more of a feeling.

Awal, take your time.

Keep walking around.

Just don't wander off too far.

Any chance our corporal took an
unscheduled leave?

Awal?

Only way out's beyond that ridge, and
that's a big no -no.

Another classified operation?

Of the highest order.

I'm talking shoot on sight.

Who's doing the shooting?

Sergeant!

Oh, you gotta be kidding me. Hey, what's
he doing?

Remembering.

Sergeant! Hey, wait!

Wait, wait!

Sergeant! Hold up!

What the hell's he doing?

What is it?

There's something underneath here.

Is it rock?

It's not rock.

It's glass.

What are we looking at here?

The site of the abduction.

doesn't melt into glass unless the
temperature is 3 ,000 degrees

I've seen glass formations like this
under a missile launch. I came from that

ship, I'm telling you. Okay, look, we
are in restricted territory here and

someone will notice.

Someone already did.

Maybe they know what happened.

If they do, they're not going to tell
us, Captain.

We got to get back to the jeep.

Now.

Captain, let's go.

I've sinned. It's been...

Actually, Father, I don't even know

why I'm here.

Something's weighing heavy on your mind.

Something about your faith.

What if... What if I told you we weren't
alone?

In the universe.

I'd say you're right.

No, that's not... That's not what I'm
talking about, Father.

The universe is a... It's a pretty big
place, Father.

There's possibilities of other life out
there.

I'm not sure I follow.

If man is made in God's image, how do
you explain

other beings?

If they exist, then I can't explain why
God would show me

the things I've seen.

Get you some rest.

We'll let you know if we need anything
else, okay?

Hey, Banks.

Part of what goes on here is
experimental aircraft.

You know the deal. It's classified.

Yeah. And we've got a missing Air Force
soldier. I'm aware.

On your territory.

So there's something here that can
explain what happened. We need to see

And I'll show you top -secret aircraft.

Without clearance, we all get sent home.

You understand?

Of course.

You just seem like someone willing to
bend the rules to get to the truth.

You always like this.

Depends if he likes you or not.

I'll bend them.

I'll break.

Then, I'll deny it ever happened.

I don't want anything you see here ended
up in the files of Project Blue Book.

This is the flying wing.

For obvious reasons.

That's the Stogie X -15.

Goes Mach 3 on a bad day.

And the tail setter.

Bet you've never seen anything like that
before.

There's no weapon systems.

There's no need.

The CIA is all about espionage, not
engagement.

So what happens when the Soviets spot
your boys on their radar?

That's the whole point.

They don't.

This is how we end the Cold War.

Or start World War III.

I went through this whole thing while
you were in there.

You following me now?

No, just making sure.

I remember what it was like after
Roswell the first time.

Didn't want you putting another foot
over the ledge again.

I'm fine, Hugh.

I'm fine.

Captain.

Flying wing.

This underside reminds you of anything?

It's the exact formation of the Lubbock
lights.

And that's Stogie.

Tell me that's not identical to what
they described in the Charles Whitted

sighting.

Oh, these are all top -secret craft, if
you're not CIA.

And every one of these crafts is a UFO.

Doc.

These planes might not just explain
Willingham sighting.

They could explain every sighting.

The CIA currently has Blue Book
investigating a case at Area 51.

Well, if the CIA wants a piece of the
UFO program, good luck. The Eisenhower

administration ain't that big.

I'm thinking they're trying to force a
choice.

Who's going to be teacher's pet?

Us or them?

Why don't we make that choice for Ike?

I was hoping we'd have our answer, but
based on what I can see, there's no

here with a downward -facing engine
capable of turning desert into glass.

You think Daniel's hiding something?

I think he's showing us what he wants us
to see. Yeah, then why invite us in the

first place?

To do what you just did.

Clear the CIA.

Otherwise, he's on the hook for a
missing airport soldier.

I guess.

We never find Miller.

Captain.

What's going on?

This is Dr. Montgomery, presiding
coroner at operating facility 051.

Let the medical records show this will
be the initial internal exam of Corporal

Miller.

The subject's eyes have been removed.

As has the tongue.

There looks to be an incision of some
sort, precise, under the chin and

extending back to the esophagus and
larynx. What the hell did this?

The sternum has been removed to expose
the inner cavity.

One lung missing.

The heart.

Stomach.

All the arteries that were cut, they've
been cauterized closed.

explain how.

You say you found him in a tree?

Yeah, um, couldn't something like a, you
know, like a mountain lion have dragged

him up there? No animal did this.

It was something put him up there.

Or maybe he was dropped from above.

I want everybody out.

Excuse me, what the hell is this?

We're laying claim to Corporal Miller.
Under whose jurisdiction?

The United States Air Force.

Is there a problem?

Yes, there is, actually.

Colonel, I'm Captain Michael Quinn, U
.S. Air Force liaison.

Project Blue Book, I'm aware.

Well, this no longer concerns you.
Colonel,

we need to finish this off.

Sergeant!

They're saying that I made it up, that I
killed them.

If you know the truth, you're the only
one that can help me. Where are you

taking this man?

Tell them!

Quiet. Please!

Tell them!

Tell them what you saw!

I was wrong about the Roswell wreckage.
I thought they sent it to Groom

Lake. They didn't.

Read that.

When they were done staging the photos
for the press, the Air Force had the

debris shipped from Fort Worth to Ohio.

Mm -hmm.

To write...

If this is true, then... Our own
backyard.

I know.

So what do you do with that?

I can't do anything.

But you could.

Evan, I'm happy to pass along this
information to my husband, but you need

understand that's the only way this
works.

You said anything about your husband.

You've been to the base before. If you
went there again and got proof...

Remember what we talked about?

I'm sorry.

I think you have the wrong impression of
me.

Doing something like that, that's not
who I am.

You sure about that?

So, what exactly would I be looking for?

The Air Force is charging Willingham
with murder.

How can that be?

There's no way Willingham did what we
saw in that autopsy room.

Look, I told the Colonel the same thing,
with more colorful language.

We need to talk to him. That's not going
to happen.

The Colonel told me you've both been
ordered back to Ohio.

What?

No, we're not done here.

Who do I need to talk to? Hey, remember
what Valentine said. If we're done,

we're done. What he begged for my help
is that we're dragging him away.

I'll have better luck fighting this back
home. Hey, hey, I'm sorry. I don't want

to interrupt. I'm sorry, but I wish
there's more I could do here.

But I imagine this happens a lot for
you, too.

Look, in the future, if there's ever
anything I can do to help, I'm on your

side.

Chief's outside waiting to take you
back.

Doc,

where are you going?

What are you doing?

Unless we can present an alternate
theory, an innocent man's life is about

ruined. Beyond the ridge where we were
earlier, that's where I'm going. Where

they shoot on sight.

Military jeep would look like friendlies
if they even see us.

Now or never, Captain.

Hey!

i figure we got about 20 minutes before
they conduct an aerial search we're

gonna have to oh did you see that let's
check it out

Are those coyotes?

What are they doing?

What does that look like to you?

It looks like the same surgical
dissection that happened to Miller.

Willingham didn't do that.

We're going to find out who did.

Follow that truck.

Don't get too close.

Want to tip Bob?

Where are you going, truck?

They can't drive over that thing.

Why not just go around?

inside a mountain?

How do you even engineer that?

Why would you engineer that?

I don't know what it's for.

Well, to keep secret work hidden?

You think Daniel knows about this?

I think what we saw back there at the
base was just a cover.

This is the real Area 51.

Where are you going?

I have a camera in my briefcase. Doc,
wait.

Get down.

Something's happening.

Come on.

Get the shot. Let's get the hell out of
here.

Doc.

Did you

see

us? We're not sticking around to see if
they did.

Wait, I have to get the camera. Leave
it. We need proof. None of this matters

we're caught.

Hey, we're getting out of here.

You do realize what we just saw?

The base inside of a mountain. No, no,
no. Son of a coyote, you said so

yourself. Looks just like what happened
to Miller. That means Willingham is

innocent. Your Honor, I'd like to call
to stand the men in hazmat suits who've

disappeared on the side of a mountain
with an electrical storm.

An innocent man is certainly charged
with murder.

Well, you know, we have to do something.

Yes, we get the hell out of here first.

Already going to be a piece of shit as
soon as we get out. Captain!

Ah, great.

Hold on.

They've definitely spotted her.

They're getting closer.

Step on it. It's not helping, Doc.

Captain.

Captain. What the hell?

That's no truck.

What was that?

Whatever it was, it's gone.

We have to get back to the base.

There it is again! Turn around!

It's circling around!

Watch out!

Captain!

It's coming straight for us!

own backyard.

Mimi, have you got proof?

Sorry to interrupt.

Oh, you didn't interrupt. I was just
taking a little break.

Trying to decipher Alan's notes can be a
little exhausting.

So, I was just about to lock up for the
day.

Right. I didn't realize I had gotten so
late. You're welcome to come back and

finish when you need.

Thanks, Faith.

I was just wondering. I noticed some of
the hangers out there, they seem to be

unmarked. Do you know why that is?

I'm sorry.

I'm not at liberty to say.

Right. It's classified, of course. It
just... It seems a little strange,

it? That kind of secrecy on a military
base.

Captain?

Hey!

Captain!

Where are we?

We're in a military truck.

What the hell happened to us?

You can't remember either.

The last thing I remember is taking off
in that Jeep.

Me too.

Twelve hours ago.

Here we are.

Step out, please.

Captain, are we speaking different
languages?

General. What part of return to Ohio did
you not understand?

Sir, we were headed back to... It was my
fault. I took off in a jeep. The

captain, he tried to stop me. I already
lost a man out here.

And then I get a call that two more are
missing. What the hell are you doing?

Well, they're not being honest with you.

I asked them to survey some anomalous
celestial activity.

Something the agency has been requesting
funding for.

So I was out of line.

Should have authorized with you first.
My apologies.

But they were a big help.

I want you two on the next flight out of
here. Do you understand me?

Yes, sir.

We'd like to reopen the case into
Sergeant Willingham's encounter.

Willingham confessed.

He did what? Confessed a murder.

I want you to listen to me and listen to
me very carefully.

Corporal Miller's murder was a tragedy.

And we are not going to trivialize that
young man's death with talk of flying

fucking saucers.

You understand me?

Now you will go home and I will clean up
this shit because you can't.

Dismissed.

He told me about the confession as soon
as he arrived.

Blind sack of shit.

Why would you cover for us like that?
Because I'm just like you, Captain.

Both of you.

I think when people try to cover up
what's really going on in this world, we

suffer.

We went beyond the ridge.

There's another base.

Inside a mountain.

What is all that?

I've never been. I don't know.

You mean you've never been? Isn't that
part of the... Everything beyond the

ridge, that belongs to the Air Force.

But for the future, you need anything.

Like help finding the truth.

Just ask me first.

Doc, what happened to us last night?

You heard what the man said.

Everything beyond the ridge belongs to
the Air Force.

You'd think Americans would be tired of
westerns by now.

Same thing every movie.

You're a sign of trouble. Someone starts
shooting.

Was that where you got the idea to
killing Cal?

I have a new mark, a better one.

Captain Quinn from Project Blue Book.

The professor was a dead end, but our
intelligence was right.

The UFO program is a cover for advanced
weapon systems.

Given time, I can gain more information.

Our intel has a CIA cooperating with
Queen and Professor Hynek. The one thing

don't have is time.

Two weeks, that's all. For what?

More photos? Files?

To start.

I think the captain himself would
provide for a much better source of

information.

You can deliver him to us.

Kidnapping an Air Force captain.

It's something you're very capable of
managing.

And you're worth a body, Mishka.

How was Nevada?

Hot.

We're going to need to accelerate our
timetable.

We scrapped this years ago, and for good
reason.

After what I just saw in the desert, I'm
convinced the CIA has one goal.

To see us obsolete.

That will make us indispensable. We're
taking a big risk, Hugh.

Let me tell you something.

I'm tired of these little skirmishes. If
we're going to war, let's fire the

first goddamn shot.

All right, then.
