You got money for that?

I just need a little.

Now, get out of here,
you little pest.

You can't make me.
It's a free country.

Hmm.

Wow! Look who's back.

How are you doing, Jack?

Not bad.

Not bad's good enough.

Hey, mister, need your
windows cleaned?

How many times do I have to tell
you to get out of here, you little creep?

Sure, kid,
go ahead. Do it.

How about taking some
pictures of me this time

while you're here?

Ah, I'm sorry, Linda.
I don't do people.

Hey, Linda! Come here
and give me a hand, will you?

Maybe you could
make me famous,

and I could get out
of this dump.

Yeah, well, I don't think that
would make me very popular

with your daddy.

So? He doesn't
like you anyway.

Hey, there! Stranger!

(LAUGHS) How you doing'?

Hey, bud!

STEVIE: Hey!

Oh, good to see you.

What brings you back here?

Well, I just want one of
Kathy's chili steak sandwiches.

Well, come on in.
How long you here for?

I don't know, a couple of weeks,
a month maybe, I don't know.

I got a present for you.

If you come up to my place,
I might even give it to you.

Well, you got a couple of
cold ones, I might just do that.

Can do.
So, is the desert

treating you pretty good?
Always.

PAXSON: Hey, hon,
look who's here.

Hey!
JACK: Hey!

Jack!

Oh, I miss your cooking.

Good to see you again.

Yeah. Chance.

How have things been
going around here?

Oh, more people
have moved on.

Yeah?
Yeah.

If they don't start
something new at the base,

it's going to turn
into a ghost town.

Mmm.
Of course, I hear

Boeing's thinking of painting
airplanes or something, but who knows.

Boeing, huh?

Well, listen, I got to run
along, but I'll be around.

Good to see you. So
I'll see you later, okay?

All right.
Welcome back.

JACK: Take it easy.
Hey, Ben.

Hey, I come to pick up my
caps. You got them for me?

You got that permit?

Well, I got it down
at the hut.

Well, now, damn it, Ben, it
doesn't do me any good there.

All right,
I'll bring it on in to you.

Well, you've been saying
that for months now.

I bet you haven't even sent
in those forms I got for you.

Hell, Pax, how long I've been
buying dynamite, huh?

Long before you was
ever here even.

(CHUCKLES) That doesn't
matter. They got rules.

Rules?
Yeah.

Pretty soon we'll be
needing a permit to pee.

Ah, shut up and quit
complaining, you half-dead old coot.

(BLOWS RASPBERRY)

Oh, that'll be two bucks.
Okay, make it fifty cents.

Hi, hon.
What you been up to?

Like you. Been working.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

For who?

For him.

Hey, kid.

You forgot your money.

Thanks.

Come on. Give me a hand
with these groceries.

Your forgot to water
the plants again today.

Hey!

Come on! Come on,
get out of here.

If you don't want sand in it,
why bring it out here?

Look, just do me a favor.
Get out of here.

Can I look?

No.

So, you get paid to take
pictures of stuff like this?

(sums)

My mom says you do.

She says you're a big-shot
photographer from somewhere.

And she wishes you wouldn't
come back here anymore.

Oh, yeah?

It's better down that way.

You think so, huh?

Yeah, there's a whole lot more
broken stuff over there.

Well, I like
the broken windows.

I find it interesting.

Is that all?
Broken windows are easy.

(EXHALES DEEPLY)

Maybe I should help you.

Look, why don't you just
go play with your friends?

What friends? They
don't live here anymore.

Let me just show you this
one place. It's awesome.

Well, I don't know,
I'm...

What, you don't trust me?

If you like beautiful stuff,
you'll love this.

Well?

Not bad.

You should see it
from up on the ridge.

Can you handle that?

I'm fine.

I carried a lot more than this when
I used to go camping with my dad.

At least
it seemed like more.

I was littler then.

It was before
the base closed.

Sometimes I think my dad
was the smart one in our family.

I mean, when people stopped
coming to the motel, he just took off.

That's what I'm gonna do
as soon as I'm old enough.

Come on.
What about your mother?

Oh, she'll do okay.

I figure it'll be
easier for her

if she doesn't have
me around to worry about.

You know,
some mothers like to worry.

Yeah, maybe.

Whoa.

You were right,
this is a lot better.

Here, try this.

Are you kidding?
No, go ahead, take it.

Before I change my mind.

Here. All you gotta do is
just turn this outer ring

until that red needle
goes between the lines.

Cool.

(RAPID CLICKING)

Don't hold your finger down.
It's a motor drive.

You mean it's got a motor?

Yeah.
Awesome.

(GROANS)

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

Hey, Stevie, come on.
Let's get out of here.

Grab some stuff and come on.
Come on! Let's go!

Come on, get inside!

Here! Hey, where you going?

Stevie!

Hey!

Stevie!

(GRUNTING)

Stevie!

Stevie!

Stevie!

Stevie!

Stevie, you okay?

Yeah! Did you see that?

Well, come on down.

No, I'm gonna go see.

Well...

Stevie?

Stevie.

You okay?
Yeah.

Do you think it was
a meteor or something?

No, it was just some weird kind
of storm. Let's get out of here.

Look at this cool rock.
Maybe it's a part of it.

It's just some
kind of quartz.

Come on,
I'm getting you home.

Well, whatever it was,

I got this really cool picture of it just
as it went over. When can we see them?

Well, we can develop it
as soon as we get back.

But did you see
that flash of light?

It's like it smashed up
against that wall of rocks.

Oh, no, I think it was just a freak
storm or something. Let's get out of here.

No, I want to go back
and look around.

No, come on. I don't like it
here. I better get you home.

(ENGINE SPUTTERS)

Shoot!
Must have got wet.

Yeah, we'll pick
it up tomorrow.

Come on, I'll give
you a ride back.

Wow, a hunk of it
busted your window.

Guess what happened
to me this afternoon.

I don't know, honey.
What happened this afternoon?

It was absolutely the most
awesome thing I ever saw.

Yeah?

There was this meteor-like
thing from space.

Oh, yeah?
Yeah.

And it exploded
and everything.

And I found this rock
that might be part of it.

Honey, I'm sorry.

(SIGHS) I'm really tired.

Yeah, sure.

But I'm not
too tired for a hug.

(LAUGHING)

You think you're such
a tough guy, huh?

Stop it.

So you want to go
out there with me tomorrow?

I could show you
where it happened.

Oh, honey, I'd really like to,
but I have to work tomorrow.

On Sunday?

All you ever do is work.

You'd rather do that
than be with me?

Oh, no, honey. Mmm-mmm.

I'd much rather be with you.

But we need the money.

Yeah, right.

(BANGING)
Hey, city man.

Hey, man, how you doing? God, it's
good to see you. I'm glad you came by.

Look, you want a beer?

Wouldn't refuse one.
Okay.

Boy, I am telling you,
I am glad to be back.

Yes, sir.

Yeah, that's why
we're out here.

The peace and quiet
of the desert.

No one to tell
you what to do.

Yeah, or when to do it.
Yes, sir.

When you gonna get smart
and move out here for good?

Yeah, some day, maybe.
I don't know.

I guess I'm not as content
with myself as you are.

Yeah, a man's downfall. Got
to prove something to himself.

Oh, don't give me that.
You were there.

That's how you got
your leg shot up.

God knows, you told me
that story enough times.

(LAUGHS)

Here.

What's this?
Well, look.

Well, let's see here.

Whoa.

How cool!

Check it out.

Jerry Garcia
designer necktie.

(LAUGHING)

World keeps
twisting on, don't it?

Yeah, you'd be surprised
what's going on out there.

Oh, look, I want you to take
a look at something here.

Tell me,

what do you think of this?

Well, what is it I'm
supposed to be looking at?

Well, I wish I could
tell you. I'm...

Yesterday afternoon, I was
out at Diamond Back Ridge,

and suddenly this, what I
thought was a storm, went over.

And when I developed the
pictures... Look at this, huh.

Here, yeah,
look at this one.

See the way the tail is
curving up like that? It's...

It's kind of like
it was flying.

So, are you telling me
it's a plane?

No, it wasn't a plane.

At first, I thought it was lightning
exploding rocks, or something.

I don't know, maybe it's
a meteor or something.

(CHUCKLES) Not likely. Unless it left
a crater out there the size of Las Vegas.

Well, I'm going out there
again tomorrow to take a look.

Nature.
A lot we don't know.

(WHIMPERING)

(CHATTERING ON TV)

FEMALE HOST 1:
Oh, they're so beautiful.

FEMALE HOST 2:
Aren't they, though?

Let me tell you,
you are not going to...

Well, Carol,
it's real human hair.

Can you just
show me that?

It's about time.

Where's dinner?

FEMALE HOST 2:
We're almost out of time.

MALE HOST:
There's only 20 left.

You were supposed to
be here a long time ago.

What did you send
away for today?

Nothing. There wasn't
anything good on.

We'll fix that.

(GIGGLES)

(LAUGHING)

(MAN AND WOMAN MOANING ON TV)

Why can't you ever
get a nice movie?

Why? I know how much
this stuff turns you on.

Oh, stop it!

What was that?
I don't know.

What the hell?

(GUN COCKING)

(GASPS) Did you hit him?

Pretty sure I winged him.

But I want to make sure
he got the message.

What's that?

What the...

(SCREAMING)

No!

(STATIC BUZZING)

(ECHOING) Roy, you scared
the hell out of me.

Hey, Roy!

Hey, boy! Boy, what do
you think you're doing?

Oh, just blowing up
some stuff.

Cut it out! You're gonna
blow your fingers off.

Oh, Mrs. Otis,
I can handle this, thanks.

Oh, sure,
she can handle this.

Wrecking the pool isn't
going to help us sell this place.

Oh, yeah. Like somebody might
be stupid enough to buy this dump.

Uh, where did you
get that camera?

It's on loan.
Did you steal it?

No.
Stevie!

I want you to
tell me the truth.

Where did this
camera come from?

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Okay, hang on. Hang
on a minute. I'm coming.

Oh, hi.

ELLEN: Hello.

Um, I'm sorry
to bother you.

Did you know that
my son had this?

Yeah. I'm letting him use it.

He doesn't know
anything about cameras.

Well, maybe he didn't before
yesterday, but he's learning'.

He's got quite an eye
for it, too.

No, really. Come on,
I'll show you. Look.

Stevie took these?

Well, yeah, some
of them. I mean...

Here, this shot's his.

Yeah, here's another.

What is that?

Oh, that's what I was
telling you about, Mom.

You know, these came
out really good.

Yeah. Look at this one.

Wow. What'd you do,
blow it up?

Yeah. Look, I think I can get
even more detail out of that.

Oh. Cool.

You got an award
for this one.

Uh, yeah.

You know what it got Grant?

The EPA saw it.
He got hit with a big fine.

You nearly put the man
out of business.

Yeah, well, I didn't mean
for that to happen.

Oh, didn't you?

Look, what I do
isn't about those images,

it's about what
they represent.

You think I don't see what they've
done to this town? They abandoned you.

None of you deserved that.

Look.
Hmm?

Oh, yeah. No,
this is a great one

because look, you can see
where the contrail goes off like that.

It looks like it's sort of pulling
up right before it hits the rock.

Uh, I don't understand.

Don't you get it, Mom?
It was flying.

And we saw it crash. We've
got to go back out there.

Yeah.
Uh...

Can I talk to you
for a minute?

Yeah. Uh, here. Stevie,
look through these and these.

I'm gonna fix your mom
some iced tea.

Look, you better look
through that thing.

What's with the water?

Um, you don't have to bother.
I'm really running late.

Okay, what's the problem?

(EXHALES) Look,

I appreciate you taking
an interest in my son.

I know he's hungry
for attention,

and it's hard for a boy
his age not having a father.

What I'm trying to say is,

I don't want to see him
disappointed, okay?

You get tired of being here, you get
into your fancy car and you go away again,

but he's stuck here.

Look,

I know you
don't like me...

|didn't say
I didn't like you.

Okay, but I don't care
what you think about me.

I'm just here to tell you that I
think that Stevie is a cool kid.

Um...

We, uh, better,
you know, get going.

I gotta to get
ready for work.

Kath, hi.
Hot, huh?

Yeah, isn't it? Listen,
have you seen Roy today?

(STATIC ON PHONE)

What? Say that again.

Oh! Damn thing!

Will you turn the water
back on, please?

I didn't do nothing
with the water.

Can you hear me?

Yeah, but just barely.

Yeah. Well, um,
if you do see him,

would you tell him I'm worried
about him, and tell him to come home?

Hey, it's C.L.

Roy didn't come home again
last night. You seen him?

No, I don't know
where he is.

No, he ain't
been around here.

Thanks.
Okay.

What the hell is the
matter with the damn water?

When are you gonna
be back from work?

I don't know. Hey, I
won't be too late, okay?

Promise?

I promise.

Smile.

You sure you don't want
to follow me home?

Nah. I'll mess around a while.

Be careful.

Don't worry about me, Mom.
I can take care of myself.

Yeah, tough guy-

Hey, kid!

What you looking for?

Hi, Mr. Culley.
Nothing. Just stuff.

Must be something to come
all the way up here for.

Well, I found this really
neat rock yesterday.

It might be part of
a meteor or something.

You got it on you?

No. Got it at home.

I could tell you
what it is.

Might be worth something.

Maybe I could
even buy it from you.

Of course, I'd have
to see it first.

You really think
it's worth something?

Well...

Cool.
I'll go home and get it.

Hey, whoa.
What's the hurry?

I got to go. Mr. Culley's
gonna buy my meteor.

He says it's worth
a lot of money.

Mmm, I made you a sandwich.
It's in the refrigerator.

Don't forget to water
the plants today.

(sums)

It's a hot one today.

Ah!

Bring it here, boy.

It's different than before.

Yeah.

And bigger, too.

Yeah, well, let's take
a little look-see, huh?

Look, it's warm.

Yeah.

You think it's a meteor?

Can't say for sure.
But I tell you what,

I'll give you a buck for
every one of these you find.

You're kidding.
Mmm.

All right.

(STATIC BUZZING)

(EXPLOSION)

(HONKING)

What the hell was that?

I don't know, but it came
from old Ben's place.

I'm gonna go take a look.
You want to ride along?

No, I got to find Roy. I've been
all over the desert looking for him.

I saw Roy this morning, out by
Diamond Back Ridge around daybreak,

and I yelled at him,
and he just kept walking.

That's not like Roy.
Diamond Back Ridge?

I'll see you later.

ZACK: I don't think I've
ever seen it this hot.

What about this heat,
eh, Jack?

We were just saying
we've never seen it like this.

Yeah, it's really something,
all right.

Listen, Pax, I got to
show you something.

I tell you, it was
a sonic boom.

You know, if they're
flying F-20s out here,

maybe they'll open up
the base again, huh?

Lord, I hope you're
right. I think so.

That'd be great!

(LAUGHS) Will you give it up?

They're not gonna reopen
Bradbury unless we go to war.

Oh, what does he know?
You could be right, Kathy.

Listen, that wasn't
a sonic blast you heard.

I went out. I saw some smoke
coming from over by Ben's place.

I went to check it out, and there is
a huge hole in front of Ben's house.

Is Ben all right?

Well, I don't know.
I couldn't find him.

Oh, that damn fool. I warned
him about that dynamite.

No, see, it couldn't have been
dynamite. Everything was intact.

The house,
the mine, everything.

There was no pieces,
no debris, no nothing.

All there was,
was a small crater.

Just a big hole, with sort
of bubbling mud in it.

And at the bottom,
I found that.

Wow.

I've never seen
anything like it. It's warm.

Yeah.

Maybe it was a meteor.

See, that's what
I thought at first.

And it kind of looks like the
rock that Stevie found yesterday.

A meteor shower.

Yeah. I really think we ought to
have somebody take a look at it.

The college at Victorville.
I got a name for you.

Anything show up
on those pictures?

Yeah, no, the blow-ups
weren't very clear.

But, I mean, there's
definitely something there.

You know, when you
were in the Air Force...

I mean, you must've heard
stories at least about UFOs and...

What are you suggesting?

Well, I'm not
suggesting anything.

Good.

Did you ever actually get out to
Diamond Back and see what was out there?

Yeah, I went
out there this morning.

I was shooting some pictures.

What the hell is that stuff?
That white...

Looks like some kind
of mineral deposit.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

What do you mean?
It's all over the place.

Then there's that mound
or something that...

I'd swear didn't
used to be there.

Mound? What do you mean?

I'll bring back the pictures
when I come back.

Well, here.
Here's Dr. Henderson.

I'll give him a call. Let him
know you're on your way.

Back in a few hours.

Hey, I can't get through.
The phone's dead.

(ENGINE STALLING)

(EXCLAIMS)

(SCREAMS)

(GRUNTS) It's okay.
You okay?

What happened?

I don't know.
It's like a furnace out here.

It's like we drove
into a damn furnace.

Come on,
let's get out of here.

Oh!

Roy! (GRUNTS)

Okay-

Roy, okay...

(GROANS)

Ah!

(SCREAMS)

(SCREAMING) Help me!

Oh, God! Roy!

(SCREAMING)

There you go. Easy.

Easy, Okay-

(COUGHS) Is that a little
better? Here you go. Here.

I just gotta
catch my breath.

Okay, well, we...
We gotta get outta here.

Not to appear
overly dramatic,

but I think you just
saved my life.

Yeah, well...

Uh...

You're welcome.

What are you doing?
Let go!

Stop it! Let me go!

(GRUNTING)

Let me go! Stop it!

Stop it!

Do you see
Stevie anywhere?

Probably back
at the motel.

He said something about
selling something to Ben Culley.

Maybe he's out there.

When was that?

Right before I left for work.

(sums)

Why, is something wrong?

Nah. Let's see if he's
back in the motel.

I don't see his bike.

Stevie? Stevie?

He's not here.
I'm going to call Paxson's.

Oh, great.
Phone's dead.

Can you drive me
over to Ben's?

Look, he's probably just
out at Diamond Back Ridge

where we were
taking pictures yesterday.

I'll drive out and see
if I can find him.

Why don't you just
stay here and wait?

And put some of this on the
sore spots. It works like magic.

Damn. I ain't never been
down this far before.

Do you think
it's the heat?

No. That'll only
dry it up on the surface.

Ain't no way it's gonna lower
the water table like this.

Well, then what the hell's
happening to the water?

Hey, look,
I just drill them.

Your guess is
as good as mine

what's going on down
under there.

Alan, come back to the store.
The power just went off.

Have any of you guys
seen Stevie?

What are you doing here? I thought
you were on your way to Victorville.

I don't know
what the hell's going on.

I couldn't get
through the pass.

I am really getting
worried about that kid.

What do you mean,
you couldn't get through?

Well, it's damn near
150 degrees up there!

Look, nobody can
get through.

Stevie!

Hey, Stevie!

Stevie,
are you all right?

Whoa, easy does it! Hey,
easy, easy, easy, easy...

Whoa, come on.
Come on, easy.

Be careful.
I'll help you down.

You scared me. What
are you doing up there?

I'm gonna put your bike in
the car and take you home.

Your mom's worried about you.

Roy, what are you doing?

Hey, Roy,
what are you looking for?

What's going on?

Stevie. Stevie!

Come on.
Where are you going?

I gotta get you home. Boy, the
heat's getting to everybody, huh?

You all right?

Your mom says you took that rock
you found yesterday over to old Ben's.

That true?

I mean,

'cause I found one
that was kind of like it,

down at the bottom of a
big hole over at his place.

I got it right here
in the back.

What the...

Son of a...

(DISTORTED) Hey, Stevie.

Stevie!

(TIRES SCREECHING)

(HONKING)

Hey! Where you going?
Come back here!

(PANTING)

You're pretty fast.

What's wrong, man?
You okay?

Don't worry.
You're safe now, okay?

Just take it easy.

You know,

(DISTORTED) your mom's
waiting for you.

Hey, hey! Come on! Come on.
Easy, now. Easy does it.

Easy does it.
Take it easy. Come on.

Hey, what the hell's
going on here?

Well, I'm just taking
Stevie home.

Yeah, well, it seems
he don't want to go with you,

so take your hands
off him. Oh, look!

Grant, this has nothing
to do with you,

so why don't
you just back off...

I said, take your hands off him!

Hey, hey, hey! Cut it!

Damn it, Grant!

God, this heat is
making everybody crazy.

Mother, take Stevie home.

Come on, honey.

Something's going on
around here.

Yeah, and you seem to
be right in the middle of it.

What is wrong with you?

What is wrong with all of you?
Don't you realize this is not normal?

It's damn near
140 degrees out,

and it's even hotter
out on the highway.

I mean, a car can't even
get over that pass.

Oh, yeah? So what do you
suggest we do about it, hotshot?

I just think that we ought to figure out
another way out while we still have a chance.

And how the hell
you gonna do that?

You can't just take these
people out across the desert

in this heat with no
water. It could kill them.

It'll kill them
if they stay here!

Look, we don't need no
city boy telling us what to do!

Come on, partner, let's go.
It ain't worth it.

You stay out of our business.

I'm telling you,

something strange is
going on around here.

Look, I can't prove it,

but I know something did
crash out there, and because of it

we are all
in danger here.

Oh, now, slow down, Jack.
You're leaping' here, man.

I feel like
I'm going crazy.

Well, man, you sound like
you're going crazy.

Well then,
you explain to me

why was Roy walking around in the
desert looking like a zombie the other day.

Oh... And, he was messing
around in the back of my truck,

and I swear to God he took
that blue rock out of there.

And those blue flashes
I keep seeing,

and that explosion over
at Ben's, what was that?

And this damn heat!

I tell you, Pax,
it is all connected!

Now, take it easy. We're
all on the same side here.

I know they won't listen to
me, but they'll listen to you.

Not a chance in hell. That's
why people live out here,

so they don't have
to listen to people.

Besides, I don't know
what you're talking about!

Well then, go out and take
a look at the damn thing,

will you, please?

Just...

Just take a look at it,
will you?

And tell me that I'm not
going out of my mind.

Please!
Okay. Okay.

Okay-

Pax, we're going
for water.

We've got horses
about to go down.

We just stopped to see if you
and Kath wanted to go with us.

I'm telling you guys, you
can't get through the pass.

You're gonna have
to try the back way.

Look who all of a sudden
is an authority.

Yeah, he's right.

Now, you might be able to get
through by crossing the dry lake

and picking up that road that
leads past Superior Salt. All right?

Let's do it.
PAXSON: Good luck.

Good luck.

Well, that's two down and
what, 20 or so more to go.

Sweetie,

I was worried about you.

Are you okay?

You want to tell me about it?

Maybe later, okay?

Hey, you want a sandwich?
Huh? Some juice?

(THUDDING)

Hi.
Hi.

Uh, you okay? Your face
looks better. How's your hand?

Yeah.

I feel fine, thanks.

Good. Uh, look...

I just wanted to talk to you about what
happened with Stevie this afternoon.

It's okay. You don't
have to explain.

No, but I want you to
know that I didn't hurt Stevie.

I mean, I don't know
what happened,

but he just spooked somehow.

Thank you, you know,
for going out to find him.

Oh. Yeah, okay. Well, I'm
glad that everything worked out.

I didn't want
to scare you, but...

I'm, you know...

I'm really grateful, you know,
for everything you've done.

I'm sorry.
Okay, okay.

Oh, God.
I was really scared.

I thought I was
going to die.

(SOFTLY) You're okay now.

What's going on?

I don't know.

But somehow,
I think it's all connected

to what Stevie and I saw out on
the desert yesterday afternoon.

Maybe, it's just
a coincidence.

Did something
happen to Stevie?

I don't know
what's wrong with him.

He's acting like
he doesn't even know me.

Yeah, he was acting
the same way with me.

I don't know, but I'm gonna
drive back out there again

before it gets dark.

I'll come back here
later, okay?

You know, maybe you ought
to throw a few things together,

just in case we have to
get out of here in a hurry.

Stevie? Stevie?

Oh, God!

Oh, my God!
Stevie, Stevie.

Help me.

Oh, my dear God.

Help me.

What are you?

Mrs. Otis! Mrs. Otis!

Open the door,
please, Mrs. Otis!

It's an emergency!

Yeah? What do you want?

Mrs. Otis, I need
to borrow your car keys.

Please.

(HONKING)

Hey, Pax!

I was hoping
you'd be here.

You wouldn't happen to have
a cold beer on you, would you?

Don't you wish.

(BREATHES DEEPLY)

How far is it?

Took me a half hour to get
this far. I got my climbing foot on.

Just over that ridge.

Don't worry.

If this heat
doesn't let up,

we're gonna start losing
some good people around here.

Oh, you okay, man?

Horny old mountain goat.

Whoa, whoa, easy there.
You okay, man?

Yeah. I'm okay.

Yeah, just testing
my reflexes.

Yeah.

This reminds me
of that time

when I crashed that
tester over at China Lake.

Took me four hours
to walk out.

But, hell,
it wasn't this hot.

We're almost there.

(PANTING) Hold it.

There's something
I want to tell you.

About 20 years ago,

I was making a test run
over the flats,

and I saw something.

Something I couldn't identify.

Did you report it?

Yeah, I reported it.

And it was leaked, and I
was made to look like a fool.

So no leaks, Jack.

Right over there.

Oh, wow!

What is that?

I swear that thing is twice
as big as it was this morning.

I think it's growing. I think we
gotta get everybody out of here.

Yeah. Yeah.

I'll go back to town,
see what I can do.

We gotta evacuate.

Yeah. I'll meet you
back there.

I gotta pick up
some stuff.

Damn.

(STATIC BUZZING)

(EXCLAIMS)

Easy, boy.}!-

Go on,
get out of here.

Hah! Go on!

What the...

What the hell?

Hey, get out of here!

Can anybody tell me how
come it's not cooling down?

I mean, the sun's down.
It should be cooling off!

Feels like it's getting
hotter out there to me!

(CROWD CLAMORING)

Okay, listen up.
Will you all quiet down?

All right, all right.
Quiet, please!

Please, everyone, quiet!

Everybody! Shh!

All right, now, is everybody
here? Where's Jubby?

I think they left already.

All right,
now listen, I know...

I know there's been a lot of rumors
about the phones and the heat,

and all the crap that's
going on around here.

I was just up at
Diamond Back Ridge...

I've been up on Diamond
Back Ridge a hundred times!

I never seen anything!

Now, something's out there!

Something like
I've never seen before.

It's this thing.

(STUTTERS) And it's big.

Wait, wait.
What do you mean, a thing?

What are you talking about?

Well, like a mountain or a
hill coming up out of the sand.

Yeah, well, what's, whatever that
is, got to do with anything, huh?

How's it making it hotter?

Well, who knows? I don't!

I just know if we sit around
here and wait, it could be too late.

Too late for what?

I think we are all
in danger here!

(PEOPLE EXCLAIMING)

Now, I'm gonna take my family,

and we're gonna pack up and we're
gonna clear out till this thing blows over.

Okay, now exactly what kind
of danger are you talking about?

PAXSON: You want to
know anything more,

you go out and see it
for yourself.

MRS. HUGHY: if the good Lord
wants to take me,

he can just come
and take me right here.

PAXSON: ...and most of all,
don't panic!

GRANT: Hey, folks, we're not
going anywhere.

I found these guys
out there, half dead.

ZACK: Yeah, we found them
out in the dry lake bed, passed out.

What happened?

Heat. Too hot.

Can't get through.

We were trying to
make it out the back side.

I guess they had
the same idea.

It was like we hit this
wall, this wall of heat.

It's hotter than hell
out there. Must be 140.

(PEOPLE GASPING)

(SHUSHING) All right!
All right. All right.

Let's not panic.

We're trapped.
We're all gonna die.

Come on, honey.
Let's go home!

We can't go home! We can't get
out of here. What are we gonna do?

There's gotta be
a way out of here.

I'm gonna find it. Anybody want to
go with me, I got room for two more.

Oh, no, no,
no, no, no! Wait!

Wait a minute! I don't know
about the rest of you guys,

but I say if that mound
out there is the problem,

then we ought to go out
there and blow it the hell up.

You with me?

You're damned right!
You're damned right!

Let's go!
You can't do that.

It's too dangerous.

I don't care
what you think.

Now, get the dynamite.
Forget it, Grant.

I'm not giving it to you.

Well, you don't
have a choice.

Now, I know you keep it
locked up back there. Get it!

I'm not giving you
the dynamite, Grant.

Now, let's think this over.
Give me the keys...

Grant!
Come on, Paxson.

It's gone too far!
Leave him alone!

You can't do this!

Yeah, you guys have
known me a long time!

Now, maybe blowing this up
is the right thing to do,

but don't go off
half-cocked!

GRANT: I got the rolls, I
got the... You got the fuses?

HUGHY, you come back
here right now!

That damn fool!

You're not gonna
believe this.

I found what
broke my window.

It was a piece of that thing
that crashed out in the desert.

And, Pax,

it's alive.

Alive? What are you
talking about?

That thing,
that strange storm,

that hit Stevie and I,
out in the hills,

it's some kind of a creature

and it's sucking all the
water out of the earth.

That's why it's so dry.

That's why
it's so damn hot.

That's why that mound
swelled up the way it did.

Creature? No, slow down.

No, look, what I'm telling
you is that, that thing out there,

that mound that
you and I saw, is alive.

This is a piece of it.
And somehow,

it has the ability to transform
itself into inanimate objects.

You're telling me
that this is alive?

Yeah.

Listen.

No, wait a minute.

Because it's a coyote,

so it isn't just
inanimate objects.

This thing's able to
duplicate living things, too.

(SIGHS) Oh, God.

Stevie.

Jack!

Ellen?

Ellen?

Stevie?

(STATIC BUZZING)

After you drop them off,
I want you to go home,

pack up some things,
and wait for me there.

I don't know what we're gonna
do, but we'll do it together.

Excuse me.

HUGHY has taken our truck.

Now what am I
supposed to do?

You'll come with us. Now,
everything's gonna be fine.

Oh, I hope you're right.

(BANGING ON DOOR)

(ROY SCREAMING)

(GRUNTING)

Roy, are you drunk?
Hey, stop it!

(SCREAMING)

Have you seen Ellen?

No, not since
I dropped Stevie off.

I don't see anybody.
Where is everyone?

Didn't Pax tell you?

Grant and some of the
others went out to dynamite

that mound you've been
talking about.

Oh, no!

They can't do that!

(BANGING ON DOOR)

(GRUNTS)

Oh, God.

(JACK YELLING)

(GRUNTING)

Ellen.

Where's Stevie?
ls Stevie safe?

Roy killed Paxson.

And Grant and the other guys
are gonna blow up the mound.

We've gotta stop them.

(GRUNTING)

ELLEN: No!

(GROANS)

He's an alien.
I knew it.

They're alien
duplicates of us.

Come on, we've gotta
stop them. Come on.

Look, there is nothing
you can do for him!

This one was a mistake.

What are you talking
about? We didn't know that

humans could be so violent.

Ellen? No.
No, no, no. Not you.

We came for the last piece.

That's all we're missing.

We only want to
take what is ours,

so we can leave.

What about Ellen
and Stevie?

Where are they?
Did you kill them, too?

They're safe.

You will all be safe
if you help us.

Did you have to kill Pax?

No, that was never
our intention.

Somehow we replicated
more than the physical,

and human emotions are
difficult for us to control.

We're running out of time.

Please help me get back.

Please.

(MEN CLAMORING)

Hurry up! All right, now don't
get too close to that thing!

We need more on the hill
there for the initial blast!

Hey, Chance, we need some
more sticks! Get down here!

The charges are almost set.
I'm running two lines in parallel.

HUGHY, the initial run
is red positive!

HUGHY: Got it!

Come on. Let's go.

(PANTING)

Come on. Come on!

I don't think
I can make it.

Please help me.

What happens if
we don't get back?

Nothing will survive of us.

This place is killing us.

But Ellen.
What about Ellen?

If you get me back
before we're destroyed,

Ellen will survive.
They all will.

Just yesterday, I barely knew
her well enough to even say hello,

and now...

She has feelings
like that, too.

Come on.

Easy. Easy-

GRANT: Come on!

Let's go!
Get this thing hot!

All right, now, get back
everybody! Take cover!

I'm gonna blow
this thing sky high!

Hey, get away!

Jack, get away!

Go back!

Hold on, Grant. That's Jack out
there and he's got Ellen with him.

Jack! Jack, damn it!
Put her down!

Grant! I've got to
get her back!

Put her down, damn it! Or I
swear to God, I'll blow a hole in you!

Grant, come on.
Get off.

Grant, you're not
gonna shoot.

You're not gonna risk
killing Ellen.

I'm not gonna
ask you again!

You do it, or I'll blow
your head off!

Stop, damn it!

You can't do this!

All right, you got five
seconds to take cover!

Five!

Four!

Three!

Two!

One!
