Woman) 'This is report 105 from Xeno archaeological expedition, team seven.

'Documentation officer Kate Carson reporting.

'The past two months of survey

'have resulted in the discovery of a vast, tomb-like complex.

'This structure was unmentioned

'by the previous and abandoned expedition to this planet.

'Entry to the tomb has now been made,

'and examination of the inner chambers

'may reveal information about the extinction of the race that inhabited this planet.

'Despite the planet's two suns,

'the surface temperature remains a constant 89 degrees below zero.

'However, underground life-support systems and electrical installations

'are fully operational.

'Safety factor, 60 per cent.

'Conditions...

'tolerable.'

(Footsteps, stones crunching underfoot)

(Heavy breathing)

(Rocks crashing)

Wind howling in distance)

(Man over radio) 'Wait a minute. Take a look at that.

'Dean, shine your torch over here for a minute.'

(Dean) 'That's terrific.

'Looks like there's another section through here.

- 'Dean, don't wander off too far.' - 'No, l won't.'

- 'l want to be able to hear you.' - 'Yeah, l'll keep in touch.'

- (Dean) 'Hey, this looks interesting.' - 'What have you found?

- 'Dean?' - 'Some kind of wall carving.'

- 'Can you read it?' - 'Means nothing to me.'

- 'Can you recognise anything?' - 'No. We'll have to get Mitch.'

'Well, don't... Don't stay too long.'

- (Radio noise) - 'Come back... Come back now.'

- (Radio crackling) - (Dean) 'There's something here.'

- 'Dean? Ricky?' - (Silence)

'Dean, can you hear me?

'Dean, what have you found?

'Ricky. Ricky, can you hear me?

'Dean, what's the matter? Ricky...'

(Distorted scream)

(Cracking)

(Cracking, radio static)

(Alarm blaring)

Move it!

(Man) Hang on. Woman) How long have we got?

(Second woman) l don't know.

(Clunking, air hissing)

(Radio) 'Can you hear me, Ricky?'

- l'll take him. - (Radio) 'Get his legs up.'

- OK, get him up. - 'Come on, Sandy, let's go.'

OK, Sharon, come on, move it.

What happened? What about Dean?

- l don't know. - ls there much damage?

One sector's knocked out.

You'd better go and see what you can do.

The voice communicators don't work in there.

Gary, this is Holly. Respond.

'Gary, will you answer me?'

'Yes, what is it?'

- Did you check the communicators? - 'l did.'

'We had a problem with the tomb, the communicators are dead.'

- 'Sounds like a frequency block.' - Damn it, that can't be right.

Get your ass up here on the double. l want to know why we have this problem.

'''Get your ass up here on the double.'' l know what l'd like to do with her arse.'

(Man) 22...

- How is he? - ..31 ...

40. OK, let's get his suit off.

How is he?

- What's that in his hand? - Don't.

- Get an isolation unit. Come on. - What is it?

Holly, give me half an hour, then you can talk to him.

OK.

l want to know what kind of crystals these are.

- l'll run some tests. - OK.

(Rumbling)

(Garbled radio transmissions)

(Eerie rushing sound)

This is Xeno subsatellite research team seven,

archaeology team documentation officer conducting interview...273

with Commander Holly McKay.

Holly, what can you disclose about this accident?

We have no idea what caused the explosion.

Our photographer, Ricky Williams, was there, and narrowly escaped serious injury.

Dean White has yet to be located.

- Will we have to extend? - There's no way we can extend.

There's no telling how long it'll be before Xeno can slot us in again.

- That's all l can say. - Thank you.

'Holly. We've got Dean.'

ls he dead?

Technically, he's still alive.

(Laboured breathing)

Anything you can do?

l've done everything l can.

l'll just keep him alive until we get him back.

(Laboured breathing continues)

Holly, we must get back into that tomb.

That may prove unfeasible.

Mitch thinks the planet was ruled by twins.

That's right.

The inscriptions indicate an interesting belief in mythology.

Everything seemed to happen in pairs. l've never come across anything like it.

There are two suns, maybe that's the reason.

You know, the creation of the previous race fascinates me.

There seems to be a chemical intelligence present.

- You OK? - Yeah, l'm fine.

l want to know what caused that explosion.

We're not gonna change our departure time but this needs to be investigated.

Sharon, do you have any information about those crystals?

l've only just started the tests.

But there seems to be some sort of... energy force surrounding the crystals.

This team isn't prepared for the contingencies we're facing now.

lf it was up to me, l'd say abandon and get taken off.

lt could be years before anybody came back. Perhaps never.

All our work would be wasted.

Listen, l'm not feeling too hot.

l think l'd better get some rest.

Take care of yourself, Rick.

There's still the question of the explosion.

We'll leave it for someone else to find out.

Unknown energy fields are beyond our range.

Barbra, let's tell Xeno to take us off, please.

They're gone for 72 hours, they're in orbit.

As soon as you can, then.

And l don't want anyone near that site without my permission.

(Phone buzzing)

(Buzzing)

- Mm-hm? - 'Gail here.

'Sorry to bother you, Mark, but l'm getting an electrical disturbance from the lab.'

- l'll hurry down and check it. - 'OK.'

- Gail, would you do me a favour? - 'Yes?'

- Uh, ask Sandy to meet me there. - 'Yes, OK.'

OK, thanks a lot.

(Machines whirring)

(Click, whirring stops, restarts)

(Click, whirring stops, restarts)

Hello.

l love you.

Mmm. l love you too.

(Clicking, whirring)

(Clicking, whirring)

(Both laugh)

What's the matter with the lights?

- l don't know but l think it's kinda great. - (Laughs)

(Breathing heavily)

(Moaning)

(Faint crackling)

(Crackling intensifies)

(Gasps)

Erm...

What exactly have you discovered from the inscriptions inside the tomb?

l found some very disturbing elements

which, at the moment, l don't fully understand.

Now, the previous inhabitants were obviously highly intelligent,

but there seems to be a form of, uh... self-destruction...

Mitch, sorry. Er, Kate...

Holly wants photographic evidence of the damage caused by the explosion.

What's that got to do with me?

You and l have been assigned to do it.

Holly said she didn't want anyone to go out there.

Yep, that's more like it. We should get some evidence.

Do you want to take some photographs?

- l don't know. l'll be glad when we go home. - Yes, l know what you mean.

Hey, Ricky.

What's wrong?

- l've got to find Dean! - Ricky, come here.

- What's up with you? - Get out of my way!

Ricky, it's all right.

Listen, Ricky. Listen to me, Dean's not in there.

- (Grunting) - Let go. Let go!

- (Mark choking) - No!

Stop it!

(Alarm blaring)

(Groaning)

(Mark) See to him.

(Mark) Ricky!

Ricky!

Hey, Ricky.

(Yells)

- Are you OK? - No, no, no, let's go.

What's down there?

- Where does it lead to? - l don't know but l'm gonna find out.

- Will you be all right? - Yeah.

- Where does it go? - The track.

- l'll check the other route. - We'll go to the monitors.

(Panting)

Whirring)

Get to Operations, Barbra.

(Panting and gasping)

- (Yells) - (Shrieks)

(Both grunting)

(Screaming)

(Panting)

Oh, no!

- He's left that outer door open. - He can't stay out there for long.

Gary, do you see him?

Yes, l can.

Just wandering around...

as if he's lost his sense of direction.

l've lost him, Holly.

(Garbled radio transmissions)

(Gail) 'Ricky?'

(Screams)

(Gasping)

(Holly) Gail, get over here, quickly!

(Gail gasping) 'l...can't.'

'l can't, Holly, my foot's stuck.'

Gary, any way to override the lock on this door?

l'm not sure. l'll get Barbra to check the main computer.

(Gail gasping)

lf Gary can get that door open, you can get out, right?

- Right. - OK. Get this off.

- How long have we got? - Two or three minutes.

- Let's do it slow. Come on. That's it. - There must be a way to override that lock.

'Gail, you must get here quickly.

'We need to close the airlock.'

(Panting and gasping)

'My thermal unit's gone.'

- (Sobs) - (Gary) 'OK, Gail? Gail.'

This is Gary. Now listen to me.

You must connect the blue and yellow leads.

Repeat, connect the blue and yellow leads.

'That will bypass the thermostat.'

We can't get to you, Gail. You have to do it yourself.

Come on, Gail.

(Sobbing) 'Oh, Gary...'

'l can't do it. You've got to help me.'

l can't help you, Gail, you've got to help yourself.

The blue and yellow leads.

'Oh, Christ, l'm freezing.'

(Barbra) 'Her temperature's dropped.' (Gary) 'Connect the leads.'

(Gail) 'Bloody gloves!' (Barbra) Down to 36.5.

'Gary, l can't do it!'

'Can't is a word l don't understand. Now do it, Gail.'

- You can't give up now. - 36.2.

'Oh, Gary, l'm gonna die out here.'

- She'll go into hypothermia. - l can't help you, sweetheart.

'Oh, please, Gary.'

- '35.6.' - (Sobbing)

'35.5.'

You must do it, Gail. Connect the wires.

The blue and the yellow. Gail! Listen to me!

(Barbra) She'll go unconscious any minute.

Gail!

'No, Gail. Gail!

'Reconnect the life-support!'

Reconnect the life-support!

- 34.8. - Gail!

This is Gary. Listen to me, Gail.

34.7.

(Breathing rapidly)

Gail. Gail!

Whirring)

Bypass the thermostat, woman! Damn you, woman!

- (Grinding) - (Muffled screams)

(Shrieking)

(Squelching and grinding)

Whirring stops)

(Garbled radio transmissions)

(Gasps)

'Kate, come here and shut the door.'

'Oh...'

'Kate, come over here. That's an order!'

'Oh...'

(Air hissing)

(Clunk, air hissing)

'Get out of my way.'

(Growling, breathing heavily)

'Ricky, get out of my way. Ricky!'

(Beeping)

(Gunshot)

(Quiet groaning)

(Beeping continues)

Well, what would you have done?

You didn't see him in that tomb. He was...

Then l just...l...

- (Gulps) l just freaked. - (Barbra) Did you have to kill him?

lt's very easy for you to talk here in the operations room.

He was out of his mind.

That outer door was open. What would've happened if he'd opened the inner one?

Any of you could've found yourself in the same situation. What would you have done?

lt's all right. Calm down.

(Sobbing)

What do you make of Ricky's behaviour?

Well, he was obviously exposed to something out there.

What it is, l've got no idea.

There is a chance it's to do with the crystals.

- ls there a contamination problem? - Not necessarily.

The crystals have been in the station 24 hours

but Ricky was showing symptoms long before that.

l think it must break the skin, as in Ricky's case,

or have some form of close contact.

My tests don't show any organic matter.

What do you think they could contain?

We're gonna have to get samples

because people are gonna wanna look at it.

Holly, surely there's no obligation to continue.

l know, Kate, but it's my job.

You want to be careful with that, Mitch.

Yeah. You know,

there's something about these crystals that we haven't discovered yet.

Now...their energy must have something to do with a life source.

Do you mean there might be something out there feeding on them?

(Rumbling)

Wind howling)

- We'll lose audio here. - OK. Stay close, huh?

Don't worry, l will.

(Garbled radio transmissions)

(Rumbling)

(Low rushing sound)

(Echoing screams)

(Screaming) Sandy!

(Yelping)

(Shrieking)

(Crunching and squelching)

(Air hissing)

(Silent)

(Silent)

- (Gasping) - lt's all right. Come on.

Wailing sobs)

Sh-sh-shh. Sandy, Sandy.

lt's all right. Come on. She's calming down.

What happened out there?

(Gasps and shrieks)

- We shouldn't have brought him in. - l have to examine him.

Give her one of your shots.

Sandy, do you hear me?

- She's in no condition to talk. - l'll put her in condition.

- She needs to rest. - (Sobbing)

Sandy, we have to know what's out there.

- Try, Sandy. - (Quiet moaning)

- Try. - Leave her alone.

She can't hear you.

Listen, Sandy's in a deep trauma.

(Moans) No...

l think she's been literally scared out of her senses.

No...

(Eerie, hollow whooshing)

Whooshing continues, low rumbling)

(Sighing)

How do you feel?

- Thirsty. - l'll get you a drink.

- You got any pain? - No.

Thanks.

(Swallows loudly)

- l feel sick. - (Sharon) Hang on.

- Come on. - (Retching)

(Coughing)

OK.

- (Sighs) - Get your legs up.

- Sandy, l want you to take these. - Oh, l couldn't.

Ooh... Ahh!

- Does that arm hurt? - Yes.

- You gave me an injection, didn't you? - Yes. But in the other arm.

- Let's have a look. - Ooh.

(Yells)

Come on, Sandy, come on.

lt's all right. Come on, come on, back you come.

There we are, it's all right.

Now listen, Sandy, we're going to give you a thorough examination.

Holly.

Yes, Karl? Problem?

- Yes, it's Sandy. - Oh, how is she?

She's fine as long as l keep her sedated.

Remember the marks on Ricky's hand?

- Yes? - She has one on her arm.

- Oh, Christ. - That's not all.

As you know, l perform certain medical duties.

- What are you getting at? - lncluding injections to restrict...

- Are you trying to tell me she's pregnant? - Two months.

That can't be, we had our injection the same time.

(Eerie, echoing voices)

(Gasping)

(Echoing) Please! No!

(Echoing) No! No!

(Crashing)

(Low, echoing rumble)

Jesus.

- Now we'll never know what happened. - That's the end of our project.

All right, what's Xeno's position, Barbra?

We should be able to make contact in six hours.

Well, then all we can do is wait.

(Computer rattling)

(Crackling)

(Crackling intensifies)

(High-pitched throbbing)

Mm...

(High-pitched whirring)

Ah...

(Noise stops)

Hi. Feeling better?

l tell you, l can't wait to go home.

Don't know about you but l've had this mission.

Don't know what's going on but whatever it is, it's weird.

l agree with Kate completely.

We should abandon and go home.

Can't wait to go home.

(Screaming)

(Grunts)

(Grunting)

(Screaming)

(Choking, rasping breaths)

(Gasping)

(Sandy weeping)

(Sandy) Go away.

Go away!

- (Holly gasping) - l said, go away.

Holly, go away!

(Shrieking) Go away!

(Screams)

(Screaming)

- Hey, there's Sandy. - What are they up to?

Mmm...

Ah!

Ow.

Ooh.

(Gary) 'Pay attention, please.

'Secure all stations. Remain just where you are.

'Secure all doors. Do not admit anyone.

'Repeat, do not admit any personnel.'

- 'Mark?' - Yeah, Holly?

- 'Mark?' - What's going on?

'Sandy's killed Barbra.'

- What are you talking about? - 'Listen, she's killed Barbra.'

- l don't understand. - 'No time to explain.

'You gotta reach Sharon right now.'

- Where's Sharon? - 'ln her quarters, l hope.

'Mark, please be careful.'

(Moans)

(Sighs)

- Who is it? - lt's Mark.

- What do you want? - Open the door.

No.

Quit screwing around and open the door.

We've all had instructions to keep our doors locked.

l'm ordering you to open this door.

- My instructions came from Holly. - Well, get her on the communicator then!

Control? l've got Mark outside the door...

(Holly) 'Well, open it!'

(Sighs)

- Come on, Sharon. - (Phone buzzing)

- (Holly) 'Are you there?' - Yeah.

- 'Mark, are you with Sharon?' - Yeah, l'm here, she's here.

'Bring her up here now. No, no, no...

- 'Go to the mess hall first.' - What for?

- 'We may need food.' - OK.

- 'Be careful.' - Yep.

- What's going on? - Come on, l'll tell you later.

(Switch clicking)

Number three scanner's gone dead.

Damn it, four's gone now.

At least she's nowhere near those two.

- (Metal scraping) - What's that?

l don't know. Come on.

l'll take that.

- (Switches clicking) - Can't you fix it?

l'm trying, Holly, l'm trying.

- ls there something wrong with the videos? - You got it. We've lost six.

- Did Sandy do that? - Yes, she did.

- Why would she knock out the videos? - l'll take care of this, Gary.

(Descending whirr)

(Smashing)

- That was a smart idea. - Switch on emergency.

Where's Kate?

(Ascending whirr)

(Footsteps)

(Grunts)

(Groans)

(Kate whimpers)

(Screams)

(Screaming continues)

(Grunting)

Kate.

(Kate whimpering)

(Grunts)

(Panting)

- She is very strong! - What weapons have you got?

- We've got to stop her, not hurt her. - The only way to stop her is to kill her.

What do you suggest? Do you know anything about that, Kate?

Explosives.

Where would you detonate? She could be anywhere.

- Unless you were on the spot. - We could use the touch burner.

lt's for heat sealing. Burn right through her brain.

(Computers beeping)

(Switch clicks)

- (Switch clicks) - (Electronic whirring)

(Switch clicks)

(Beeping continues)

- What do you suggest? - Keeping her alive!

He's the doctor, ask him. How to keep her alive?

- l could inject her with a drug. - Shall l hold her arm for you?

She's pregnant, Kate.

That'll look great on the report. ''The team were terrorised by an expectant mother.''

- (Alarm) - She's blowing up the place.

Transmitter's out. She's thinking fast.

- What about the Xeno? - Out of contact.

- (Sandy, sobbing) 'Someone help me.' - She's in the exercise room.

- Holly, l'm going to her. - Don't be a fool, Karl.

- l'm a doctor and she's in pain. - (Sandy wailing)

- She might be hurt... - l'll decide who goes!

- lf l restrain her, can you sedate her? - l'll get my things.

- Where's the touch burner? - Preparation chamber.

- Stay here, Gary. - Yes, sir.

(Sandy whimpering)

'What's happening to me?'

Help...me. Weeping)

Someone, please.

Wailing)

Help.

Please.

(Sandy whimpering, faint)

(Sobbing)

Whispering) Come on.

(Sobbing stops)

(Sandy wailing)

Wailing gets louder)

(Sandy gasping and sobbing)

lt's all right, Sandy, it's all right. Come on.

- lt's all right. - Now, Sandy... Take it easy.

- (Karl) l'm here. Just relax. - Don't worry, it's OK.

(Karl) Give me your hand. That's it.

- Take it easy, come on. - (Sharon) Shh.

- Now... - (Sharon) lt's OK.

- (Karl) Come on now, just relax. - Don't worry.

Take it easy, that's it.

- Don't worry. lt's all right. - Hold her, Sharon.

- Just relax, come on. - (Sharon) lt's all right.

- (Sandy shrieks) - No!

(Grunting)

Come here, Sandy. Come on.

Come on!

(Burner crackling)

- You've got to keep steady, Karl. - Holly!

- (Holly) Out of my way. - Holly!

(Screaming)

No! No!

No!

Sharon! Help me!

- (Crackling) - (Screaming)

Sharon! Help me!

(Screams) Sharon!

(Holly, screaming) No! No!

Help! (Shrieking)

(Gasps and sobs)

(Screaming)

Watch it, Mark.

(Sobbing)

OK, come on, Sharon.

Watch your leg. Put your arm around me.

- Please, help me. - Are you OK?

(Sobbing)

Come on.

Come on. Kate?

Get her to the chair.

Have you seen her?

- What is it? - lt's her leg.

- (Kate) Let me have a look. - (Sighs)

Where are the others?

- (Kate) Come on, it's all right. - Gary, l don't know.

She'll be OK, it's not broken.

(Mark) How are we gonna stop this?

lf we can get to the space preparation chamber...

- lt's no good. - We've got to try.

- There are chainsaws. - She's too strong.

(Sandy) 'You can't get away from me, you know.'

lt doesn't matter what you do,

you'll have to come out sometime.

There's no other way.

So why don't you...

all just come out now?

Mark?

'Mark.

'l'm waiting for you.'

This is our chance.

'For you.

'You needn't be like the others.'

What do you think?

You keep her occupied, we'll get the equipment.

Why don't you just...

open the door?

'lt would be so easy.

'Mark?'

Mark.

l'm waiting for you.

(Sandy whimpering quietly)

'Mark?

'l'm waiting for you.'

Our best bet's the derelict passages.

She won't look for us there.

Mark!

Mark, l'm waiting for you.

Whimpers)

Mark!

Please, help me.

Sandy? Sandy, can you hear me?

Whimpering)

Sandy?

Mark...

l need you.

- (Sobbing) - Sandy...

l promise you, l'll help you.

l promise you.

'Can you hear me?'

Oh!

- (Screaming continues) - (Mark) What was that?

Mark?

- No... - Kate! Quiet, woman.

Sa...

Sandy? Sandy.

You can't escape me.

'l'm OK but l don't know how long l can stay out here.'

ls your air system functioning?

'lt's fine.

'You worry about yourself, Harvard.'

(Bestial gasp)

(Gasping)

- 'Oh, no.' - What's the matter?

(Rasping breaths)

She's...she's breathing the atmosphere.

She's...she's what?

Oh, no.

75 TX Xeno 2,

this is auxiliary module 047.

Reply, please.

(Man) 'l receive you, 047. This is Xeno 2. Please advise your status.'

l have the location and am approaching planet surface.

'Received, 047. Lock on approach, channel 505...'

When was the last transmission?

Nothing for 28 days.

094 and closing.

'Acknowledged. Xeno 2 closing.'

Hey, horseshit,

get us down the right way up this time.

Yeah, take it easy. (Chuckles)

'OK, Roy, cover me.'

(Scraping)

'Oh...

'Corin, l have a body here.

'Mutilated.'

(Corin) 'So have l.

'Strangled.'

'This is unbelievable. All the records have been destroyed.'

(Roy) '047, this is Remote.'
