[dramatic music playing]

[static noise]

[reporter] Are we rolling?

All right, we're gonna try to get as close as we can.

This is not going to be easy.

Yes, I can hear you.

All we know at this time is that it was the Kulku,

an alien race known as the "Kulku."

[US President] The Kulku are a humanoid,

technologically very advanced race.

We come to you in a time of great desperation.

Our civilization is dying.

They have capabilities far beyond our own ability to defend ourselves.

The Raeg is also the possible source of mass destruction on a global scale.

[reporter 2] …what's left of the 101st Airborne.

From what we can tell, most of Los Angeles has been destroyed.

The leaders of the world have been forced to come to an agreement with them.

Surviving F-22 Raptor fighter appears to be engaging a Kulku ship.

Thus far, the Kulku has maintained total air superiority.

[reporter 3 speaking in French]

[US President] If we do not give them what they want, they will destroy us.

What the Kulku want is eight million humans.

Their sacrifice, their blood will be used as an antidote to the Kulku disease.

The Kulku are a species who have earned the right to exist.

America's share is 800,000.

[reporter] This was ground zero for the Kulku attack.

While other countries have emptied their prisons…

-[man] Turn that off. -…the United States…

Some of us are eating.

-…has instituted a lottery… -Sorry, the TV stays on.

Is this system fair? Only time will tell.

-Are you gonna order? -I'm still deciding.

Every effort has been made to keep the selection process as balanced

-and as painless as possible. -These guys…

For better or worse, 650,000 Americans have so far sacrificed their lives,

and we're still short by 300,000 citizens.

Bob Tangier in New York is standing by with a live report.

[Stephen] Heather.

Daddy…

Something's come up. I need you to come with me.

But I haven't finished my shift.

We have to go.

What do you mean?

Honey, please, for me. Just do it, now.

I have to change.

Okay. Okay, just hurry.

Aliens… How am I supposed to eat when there's aliens?

-[Heather] Hi. -Let's go.

[device beeping]

Can you tell me what's up?

I'll tell you in the car.

Donald Weitzer? Would you please come with us?

I'll first need you to place your thumb on this sensor to verify…

-This has gotta stop! -Drop it!

[crowd screaming]

You're selling out our planet, you bastard!

-[Heather] Dad, what's going on? -We've gotta leave, right now.

Tell me, please!

Have you been selected?

No, it's you.

Now, come on, please. We've gotta go.

I'm only gonna tell you one more time, put the grenade down!

[dramatic music playing]

Please, I don't want to die.

We're already dead,

every last one of us.

[man on radio] Resistance, so far, seems uncoordinated and isolated.

The general tone of the country seems to be one of quiet acceptance.

[woman on radio] I can't get over how many people…

Heather, sweetheart, listen to me.

I will not let anything happen to you.

Oh, yeah? Like, what are you gonna do, take on the whole world?

There's a lottery in this country.

You know that's the deal that we have.

Anyone can get chosen, anyone.

But I will not let anything happen to you, you gotta believe me.

[Heather sniffles] Okay.

[loud thud]

What the hell?

[Stephen] Stay inside.

I think I'm gonna be sick.

[retching]

Heather, get in the woods. No matter what happens, stay hidden.

Nothing to see here. No reason to stop. Just keep moving.

[car doors open and close]

Sir, would you please rise and step away from the vehicle?

Oh, hell, guys, there's no reason to stop. I don't need any help. It's just a flat.

I'll have it fixed and be on my way.

Sir, don't make me ask again.

-[metal clanks] -What seems to be the problem?

I think you know why we stopped, Dr. Chase. Where's your daughter?

She disappeared.

May I remind you that defiance of National Mandate 285

can result in severe fines, as well as possible jail time?

Look, I…

I'm just gonna fix my tire…

I will ask you one last time.

[soldier] Sir!

-Heather, run! -Get her! [grunts]

[suspenseful music playing]

-[gun fires] -[thump]

[soldier grunts]

[breathing heavily]

Just calm down. You don't wanna do this.

-I said you weren't taking her. -Put the gun down.

[Stephen grunts]

[groaning]

[device beeping]

Please, take me instead.

You know it doesn't work that way.

Please…

You'll have your chance,

like everybody else.

[groans]

[woman] The virus covered the baby's body completely,

and her eyes had scabbed over.

All she could do was hold my hand, and I gave up hope.

I said goodbye.

Then, a miracle, the human distillate arrived,

and her little eyes opened.

I also have been inoculated and I'm fine.

Did your daughter survive?

Yes, Ambassador. Thank you.

It was a one-way trip for us, to this backwards hell.

We will never see Kulku again.

You've made a sacrifice for your family.

Of course, they received the serum first.

[speaking alien language]

[in English] Please,

among these people, we must speak their language.

Time escapes us, Kor.

They're cheering our names in the cities,

but until we have harvested enough humans

to save every living Kulku, we will not have saved our race.

I want you in the United States.

They're 300,000 behind goal.

What human is in charge, sir?

A General Skyler, I believe.

But there is one unique problem.

A Kulku ship crashed there over 50 years ago.

Human scientists have pieces of our technology,

which they've been trying to develop ever since.

It would take them centuries, sir.

I don't believe a real threat exists,

but you must make sure.

Yes, sir.

Where is it?

Commander Kor, I was just going to contact you.

Of course you were. Is this a candidate?

As it happens, he could be an infinite source of serum.

-Why haven't you tested him already? -I've tested him,

but now that you're here, we can finish testing him.

It's ironic that we must search for anomalies in the same way

we extract distillate.

[device turns on]

[screaming]

If they live, they live,

but if they fail the test, they die.

And either way, it's most unpleasant.

I guess he was not an anomaly after all,

which means we will have to continue our processing.

Wait!

[intense music playing]

[all screaming]

We are not running at capacity.

At this rate, we will never reach our quota before the wormhole collapses,

and all this will be for nothing.

I'm aware of the problem.

Of course you are…

Commander.

[intense music playing]

[control panel beeping]

-[Bill] Stephen! -Move your car, Bill. I'm in a hurry.

We've got major problems.

You know the rumors about the Kulku raiding the research institute.

Well, they're all true.

They took over Salem Hills this morning while I was working.

I don't care. Move your car.

-Stephen… -They took her.

Heather?

They're moving her to the Montana West Region facility right now.

[Bill] What are you planning on doing?

No. You listen to me. That's not an option.

Look, I lost my wife. I'm not gonna lose my daughter too.

Look, your wife died of cancer.

You can't go in Heather's place. You can't!

The lab. Tell me about the lab. What's happened?

The lab…

They gutted Lab "B" and took everything, including the mineral.

-Genexium? -Yeah.

Who cares?

They do. They brought in a friggin' laser cannon

and blew open the wall to get it.

Yeah, but that stuff is useless. It's inert.

We stopped researching it almost five years ago.

I gotta go.

See you, buddy.

Okay.

[car engine starts]

[US President] My fellow Americans,

in the past,

we have fought many wars,

knowing full well that we would destroy all enemies who sought to do us harm.

But this time, the greatest military force in the world has been reduced

to helping alien species round up

and kill our own citizens.

[knock on door]

I must ask for your cooperation.

If you are called, you must go, in the interest of the entire world.

God bless you.

God bless America.

[dramatic music playing]

[screaming]

[woman over PA] Area 11, induction and preprocessing

is at the far end of the stadium.

Report to induction and preprocessing if you've just arrived. Thank you.

[man over PA] Single line only.

[woman over PA] For safety, and as a courtesy to others,

please stand behind the white line in front of the shuttle. Thank you.

[man over PA] All recent selectees must report

to the re-clothing section before debarking.

No street clothes are permitted aboard the transport.

Metal jewelry and all personal items must be left behind on the tarmac.

Thank you.

[dramatic music playing]

[woman over PA] Area 11, induction and preprocessing

is at the far end of the stadium.

Report to induction and preprocessing if you've just arrived.

-[soldier] Miss? -[woman over PA] Thank you.

Miss, you need to get back in line.

[man over PA] Single line only. Thank you.

You have to stop.

How can you do this?

Help them kill us?

-I don't have much of a choice, ma'am. -It's Heather.

I have a name. I don't deserve to die like this.

-I understand what you're going through. -I don't think you do.

You do have a choice.

You just chose the easy way.

Well, you're no better than they are.

It's not what you think.

[woman over PA] Area 11, induction and preprocessing

is at the far end of the stadium.

[man] I will pay good money

if you exchange yourself for my wife.

Please, please, please help… Somebody… [cries]

You… please.

[Alex] Come on, old timer.

There's no hope for you.

Come on. Listen… Let's go.

Heather Chase.

I'm gonna get a chance to see her, right?

Would you please step forward?

[man announcing indistinctly on PA]

[intense music playing]

[spaceship engine turns on]

[Alex] You gotta calm down…

You can't do it like that.

Listen,

I promise you. Things are gonna be better.

[man over PA] Please do not congregate or talk to other selectees at this time.

Thank you for your cooperation.

[woman over PA] Proceed to the processing area after scanning.

You must leave all coats, jackets, and personal items with the guard at the gate.

Thank you.

[man over PA] Contact with military guards or Kulku personnel is not allowed.

Thank you.

[machine scanning noise]

Wait a second, please.

[typing]

[beeping]

Take her to isolation.

Let go of me.

Get your hands off!

I assume you've read and understood the contract before you signed?

Yes.

And who are you here for?

For my daughter, Heather Chase.

[typing]

[beeping]

Please remove your jacket, step forward into the scanning array.

[scanning noise]

[beeping]

You are an unacceptable replacement.

What? Unacceptable? No, no, that's a mistake.

The results are correct.

I don't believe you. You're lying. I want to go again. Test me again.

Get your hands off me!

-[grunting] -[soldier] Come on, man.

Better turn in my daughter!

[soldier] Stop. Let's go.

I want my daughter, damn it!

Stay right there, sir. Stop. Stay right there.

Wait for my signal.

[woman over PA] Proceed to the processing area after scanning.

You must leave all coats, jackets, and personal items with the guard at the gate.

Thank you.

Only one person at a time is allowed in the scanning array.

Thank you.

[rapid beeping]

[man over PA] Please do not congregate or talk to other selectees at this time.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Okay, let's get these things loaded.

Stop!

[people screaming]

[man announces indistinctly on PA]

Hey!

That's enough!

You'll treat these people with dignity.

[rapid beeping]

[people screaming]

[alarm blaring]

[man] Watch out! Watch out, Alex!

[gunshot]

[automatic rifle firing]

[Alex] Get as many as you can. You have 30 seconds.

-Right! -[Alex] Go!

[gunfire]

[people speaking indistinctly]

[soldier] Everyone!

[grunts]

[Blair] Cover me!

[Blair] Come on! Just go!

[Blair] Follow me! Come on!

[resistance personnel 1] It's okay! It's okay! Come on!

[resistance personnel 2] Let's go!

[Blair] Let's go! Come on, everyone, get on the truck! Let's go!

Move it! Move it! Come on!

-Come on, close it up. -[Blair] Yeah, yeah.

Come on.

[gunfire continues]

[Blair] Let's get out of here. Close it up.

[alarm blaring]

Most of these are reverse engineered using older technologies.

So archaic.

They must have salvaged these from crashed reconnaissance ships.

Last time we were in this sector, my father was in service.

Unless you find anything useful, melt it down.

Yes, sir.

-[beep] -Go ahead.

[somber music playing]

All right, folks, as you're probably all aware,

Canada, our neighbor to the north,

has already completed delivery of citizens to the Kulku.

This means the pressure is off them… somewhat.

You'll still have to hide out until this is all over.

Sergeant Barnes will provide you with further instructions

and passport papers as you approach the border.

Good luck.

Thank you. Thank you very much for all you've done for us.

Yeah, okay.

[indistinct chatter]

-Commander. -[Kor] General Skyler.

I'm impressed by your timing.

What's this?

-High-tech explosive, Special Ops device. -Exactly. The Resistance.

-One of your men planted it. -Negative.

My men are the best of the best.

Is there another answer? Enlighten me.

I don't have any answers, only observations.

[Kor] I'm waiting.

If the Resistance had this kind of advanced technology…

Look, your men are dead, mine are wounded.

Resistance fighters knew exactly what they were doing.

They're not gonna stop. This is far from over.

Have your men clean up this mess, General.

I want everything back on schedule within the hour,

or some of your "best of the best" will replace the 19 we lost.

-I don't think that's gonna happen. -And what about the raid, General?

Why is your great United States of America

already turned over 500,000 of its citizens?

General,

your task is to aid in the turning over of 300,000 more.

Now do your job.

[helicopter blades whirring]

Don't move.

Oh, I have no intention of moving until you take me to see your boss.

And why would I do that?

Because I have some information he might find useful.

I have an idea,

why don't you tell me and I'll pass the message along.

Because what I know is too valuable to trust with you…

and it doesn't come free of charge.

Considering I'm the one with the gun,

who's to say that I won't beat the information out of you,

throw you in a ditch somewhere?

After all, you could be a Kulku spy.

You're gonna have to convince me otherwise.

I've researched Kulku technology for the last 18 years.

I have something they want.

You even sneeze funny and I'm dumping you on your head.

[engine turns on]

What are you doing to me?

Your blood has a rare property that interests us.

My duty is to investigate anomalies like you myself.

Aren't you guys supposed to be dying?

It's a virus.

Better not be contagious.

You have nothing to concern yourself with.

So, how'd you get it,

sticking your nose into somewhere it doesn't belong?

-Don't touch me, you pervert! -Hold still.

I cannot confirm the findings if you move.

Try to get a good reading now, ass-face.

[choking]

You will hold still.

[device beeps]

[gasps]

Why don't you just get it over with and kill me now?

You may just get your wish.

No. No, please.

Your survival depends completely on your blood.

I don't wanna die.

No!

So, Dr. Chase, to what do I owe this unexpected visit?

The Kulku gutted my lab at the Salem Hills and they took all my research.

They think they got it all, but they didn't. I have some hidden.

And?

And I'll tell you where it is if you rescue my daughter from the Montana Camp.

How about I suggest a proposition to you?

You go get your research, bring it back to me,

and if I decide it's of any merit, then we'll break out your daughter.

How does that sound?

Dr. Chase, you only have 30 seconds to decide.

[woman over PA] Certain countries haven't cooperated fully,

are looking to open training,

calling it the great potential…

[guns cocks]

[man speaking indistinctly on PA]

Dr. Chase.

Leon. Leon Reuss. I remember you from the Glasgow Project.

Right. How you doing?

Well, this is certainly a far cry from what I was doing back then.

Can we get on with it?

Stephen will give us his research if we rescue his daughter from the Montana Camp.

Given your familiarity with Salem Hills, I want you to come with us.

Salem Hills? But Salem Hills has been taken over by the Kulku.

Then I'll go alone.

Stephen, you're not gonna go alone.

Shut up and get ready.

You and Blair.

How do we even know his daughter is still alive?

[gasps]

[intense music playing]

[Drom] Commander Kor?

Commander Kor? I have news.

More important than the United States Resistance?

You found another anomaly.

And this makes three from this facility alone.

We would have an unlimited cure for our people.

Each one of these anomalies is worth thousands of the normal humans.

Are you certain?

More testing needs to be done.

[suspenseful music playing]

They're taking the Nova Cone.

[Leon] Are we screwed?

No, that thing's a piece of junk. It's the Genexium we want.

Hold on a second. Genexi-what?

[Stephen] Genexium.

It's a mineral retrieved from the Kulku crash site in 1947.

Wait, are you saying that the Roswell crash was a Kulku ship?

Do you know of any other alien species?

They closed the books on the research five years ago.

I was gonna make it my pet project, but never got around to it.

But if you never figured out what it was for, why is it so important now?

Well, if the Kulku are so excited about getting it back, that would suggest

they don't want us to have it.

You enjoy this, don't you?

That's why you're so important.

I swore an oath to my shipmates

to wait to kill myself, in deference to those left behind on Kulku.

But I deserve this.

[injecting]

Not only does the processing not kill you,

but it works more faster

and efficiently.

[sighs]

[knocks on window]

I'm sorry, sir, but this facility is closed.

You'll have to turn around and leave.

Relax. We work here.

As I said, this facility is closed.

Why don't you call Jeffrey Butler while we wait?

[man] Sir, I don't know a Jeffrey Butler.

I must again ask you to turn around and leave. You're not supposed to be here.

What do you think we are doing here in the middle of the night?

I don't know, sir.

Well, let me tell you. I just got an extremely unpleasant wakeup call

from my supervisor, telling me to get out of bed,

get Leon and my ass down here pronto

to supervise the Kulku extraction of our material.

Now, I don't know what you've been told,

but if there's anything missing or destroyed in there,

it's gonna be your ass, not mine, you understand?

Do you understand?

Sorry for the confusion, Dr. Chase.

I don't remember a Jeffrey Butler.

That makes two of us.

[suspenseful music playing]

Okay.

[sighs]

When was the last time somebody washed this damn thing? It stinks.

I don't know what to tell you. This is your guys' car.

[Blair] So what's the plan?

[Stephen] Leon.

This little baby is our all-access backstage pass.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Stephen] We're headed for the second floor. Over.

Crap.

[whispering] Foster wasn't kidding.

-[radio static] -Blair, do you copy?

-[radio static] -Blair!

Howdy.

Miss, would you step away from the vehicle?

You're not supposed to be here.

[sighs]

Please, don't touch me.

But if I am not allowed to touch you, then how am I supposed to kick your ass?

I honestly wouldn't move a muscle.

I have anger issues I still need to resolve.

[suspenseful music playing]

[metal clanking]

Hey, man, this is no time to change a broken light.

What the hell.

I thought that stuff was supposed to be inert.

See if you can find my laptop.

Now what?

Give me that thing… that thing that you made.

[typing]

I just hope they didn't trash our network.

[sniffing] Ugh.

Boys, if you don't hate me now,

wait till you get a whiff of this.

[soldiers gagging]

Gentlemen,

you're about to have some company.

-[radio static] -Come again?

I said you'd better get the hell outta there.

Did you hear that?

-Yeah, I hear it. -Stephen, I'm serious.

The Genexium went active six weeks ago, the same time the Kulku arrived.

[Blair] Boys, if you're not dead already, you will be if you don't haul ass.

I gotta get to Foster's office.

[dramatic music playing]

Well, Foster, this is one time when being a pack rat paid off.

[intense music playing]

[Stephen] Blair! Come in! Meet me by the loading dock.

[car engine turns on]

[dramatic music playing]

-[Blair] Watch out! -[gun cocks]

[gunfire]

Come on, let's go!

[Stephen] Come on!

You're driving!

-You ever drive one of these things? -Hell, no.

This would be a good time to learn.

Oh, God, don't leave without me.

Get in the back!

[spaceship approaching]

What are you doing?

We haven't even gone ten feet.

What the hell are you doing? You're going the wrong way!

[grunts]

What the hell was that?

Your tax dollars at work.

I hate to interrupt, but can we get the hell out of here?

Let's go get my daughter.

[door opens]

-[soldier] Heather. -[Heather] What do you want?

How do you know my name?

I'm getting you out of here.

Put these on.

Come on, let's go.

[Drom] Ha, Commander.

This better be good.

See for yourself.

Her blood destroys the disease.

It works, Commander. We can be certain.

We were going to wait to take the cure until all the shipments

were received on Kulku.

I had to test it, just to be sure.

With the serum, we needn't process as many humans

to make our quota.

Does Ambassador Jal know?

Kor, we could even send her back through the wormhole.

The living can't survive the passage.

You know there is a way.

No, don't even mention that.

Kor, would you like me to cure you just before you see him?

[suspenseful music playing]

[soldier] Okay, we're gonna have to wait this out, so just…

just sit down, relax.

[dramatic music playing]

I can't take much more.

Hey, as long as there's hope.

Hope?

I was put in a tube and melted down.

I could feel my skin blistering.

I know what all those other people felt, how it feels to die.

Yeah, but you lived, didn't you?

You know, there's almost eight million people who can't say that.

So why me?

Why is this happening to me?

I don't know,

but you've got to keep going.

Hey, that's it… that's all there is.

Hey…

just keep going.

[Alex sighs]

All I see here is a handful of shiny stones and a handmade hair dryer.

Well, originally, we were trying to reverse engineer

a highly sensitive communication array

based on Kulku technology.

In other words, a listening device.

A listening device.

But with the Genexium activated,

it's something else altogether.

Hey, that's my car.

Wow, that's some hair dryer.

[soldier over radio] Command Center, come in.

Go ahead for Command Center.

[soldier over radio] Sir, we're approaching the rendezvous point.

Is that Heather?

Do you have the package?

Affirmative, and two others.

Good.

We'll see you in a few. Command Center out.

Okay, this way. Come on.

[suspenseful music playing]

[whistles]

Daddy!

Heather, honey?

-Good job, Tom. -Thank you, Alex.

We better load up and get out of here.

-[Heather sobbing] -[Stephen] I know, baby, I know.

I've got to get back to the camp.

-[gunshot] -[grunts]

-No! -[General Skyler] Drop your weapons now!

-Get down! -[General Skyler] Hands above your head!

[glass shattering]

Come on, get everybody out of here!

Run!

[men grunting]

[screams]

[woman screams]

-[man] You okay? -[Blair] Come on, get up.

Let's go!

[Blair] Come on. Follow me.

I want those selectees taken alive, General.

Then you can tell them to cease fire.

It's only a matter of time till they flank us!

[dramatic music playing]

[screams]

[screaming]

Get in.

Now let's stay on the main road.

Okay? I'll catch up with you in a little while.

-Daddy! -Get down!

[dramatic music playing]

[woman screams]

[screaming]

[Blair groaning]

[soldier] Come on, move it. Keep going.

Our intelligence was correct.

So that's what this was all about?

No matter what happens, remember, I love you.

Where are the others that were with you?

Your men murdered them, you bastard.

I'm taking the girl to the processor.

Send the others to the camp.

No! No, you can't take her!

Wait! None of these people were chosen through the lottery. This is unacceptable.

I'm afraid you have no choice.

Heather, no!

Take me and let them go, or I pull the trigger.

You don't have to do this, sweetheart.

I know you need me.

You'd sacrifice your life for these people?

[suspenseful music playing]

Very well.

Take them into custody. They won't be harmed by us.

You're either very brave, or very foolish.

Goodbye, Daddy.

-[Heather grunts] -Heather!

Heather!

Commander, here is the anomaly I spoke of.

It's too late, don't you think?

With her serum, we needn't process so many humans.

She's insurance, at best.

[Jal] Do you honestly expect me to halt the harvesting of the humans

when we are so close to reaching our quota?

I am trying to offer you a better solution.

To what?

Your own failure?

We are a noble race, Kor.

For centuries, we've helped planet upon planet

to grow and survive.

Don't we deserve the same?

Killing to survive may be noble… maybe.

But killing unnecessarily is against everything we stand for.

Your time among the animals has made you soft.

Don't concern yourself anymore with meeting our quota.

I've taken it upon myself

to find a more permanent solution.

If they will not give, then we shall take.

[dramatic music playing]

It must be great to be able to see things only in terms of black and white.

That's not the way the world works, Alex. It's all very gray.

You assume that we didn't try every avenue possible to avoid this, well, we did.

Cities were laid to waste, innocent lives lost,

needless destruction and devastation.

Your resistance has caused the loss of more lives than you can possibly imagine.

What the hell did you hope to accomplish in the end?

It's not about accomplishments, General.

It's about survival.

We're obligated to fight and not give up quietly.

Are you insane, or just stupid?

What do you think happens?

For every person you rescue, an innocent American life takes its place.

The Kulku demand a certain number of people.

They're not gonna stop until their quota's reached.

Yeah, and you're just gonna give it to them?

I do what my government tells me to, son.

And I do what my conscience tells me to do…

General.

How did they know?

How did they know we'd be there?

They were tipped off…

somebody on the inside.

Not possible.

Think about it. They knew every move we made.

Forty-eight hours ago, it was just me and Heather.

She was telling me what to do, just like she always did…

like her mom always did.

We were talking about her going to grad school,

and then I got the word she was on the list.

I can't live without her.

Why didn't you run when you had the chance?

I had the weapon, so I used it.

We'll get her back.

I promise.

Son of a bitch!

[people screaming]

[man] Come on!

-Hey! Cut us loose! -I can't do that!

Untie us!

Now!

Do it!

We gotta get out of here.

No kidding.

Take it easy.

-He's okay? -I think so.

Whoa! Whoa, buddy.

[Stephen sighs and sniffles]

[coughing]

It's no longer a lottery. They're harvesting us now, like animals.

Harvesting…

Where's Alex?

[explosions in distance]

[Stephen] I'm sorry.

Nothing else we can do here.

-Let's go. -Dr. Chase…

[suspenseful music playing]

-I'll see you there. Good luck. -Thanks.

[Leon] Where's Alex?

He's dead.

What are we gonna do now?

Well, personally,

I'm gonna get on their processor and save my daughter.

[Leon scoffs] How do you propose to do that?

I'm gonna destroy the Raeg.

He's joking, right?

They'll hunt you down and kill all of us in the process.

That's what I'm counting on.

This is our last chance to level the playing field.

We'll see how they like war on our terms.

[somber music playing]

Sir, we harvested nearly 20,000.

Is that all?

-How many were killed? -We didn't count that, sir.

Of course not.

When you volunteered for this mission,

did you think about what we would do when it was over?

Sir, we are unable to return home.

The disease is killing us.

I never thought of afterwards.

Neither did I,

but even when we're gone, there's always an afterwards.

[man] Yeah, we'll take care of that. Let's go.

What?

I'm sorry about Alex.

He was a good guy.

He believed in what he was doing. He thought about the whole world,

just not himself, and…

I'm sorry that he's dead. I just wanted to say that. I'm sorry.

I can't do this right now.

I just can't.

Okay.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Dr. Baker] Stephen…

everything is set for you.

Thank you, Dr. Baker. I suggest you get as far away from here as you can.

If you don't mind, I'd like to stay.

They took my son too.

All right, let's get this truck unloaded.

Come on, time's a-wasting.

[spaceship whirring]

I trust this won't be necessary anymore.

Why don't you go back to where you came from and leave us alone?

We can't.

The wormhole we came through only works one way.

We are lucky to able to send our shipments back.

You mean the people you murdered?

I'm curious.

What would you have done in our situation?

I wouldn't kill people.

Is that so?

What about if you could save everyone you loved,

and all it took was to harvest a colony of your dogs?

Would that be worth it?

So now we're dogs?

As I recall, many dogs have been sacrificed

so the humans might find cure for disease.

And thanks to you,

I'm completely cured.

I'm going to prep you into a stasis tube

so our extractions of your distillate will be less traumatic to your body.

Why us?

What?

Why the Earth?

You gave us our only chance to survive.

Ambassador,

to what do I owe this unexpected visit?

[Stephen] The dome has to stay shut until the last second.

Just make sure the coordinates don't change.

I never thought we'd use my scope as a weapon-sighting device.

I have a whole list of those "I never thought I'd" things too.

[chuckles]

[Leon] Stephen, the whole array is jacked up.

Just concentrated the firing mechanism. It doesn't matter if the com ray works.

-We don't need it. -But we may get only one shot.

Then we'll have to make it count.

-Stephen, I just-- -Leon, relax. It's gonna work.

[Leon] Ow!

Ow!

Ow!

Better have that looked at.

-I've got to get this done. -Come on, take care of it.

You're still human, right?

Speak for yourself.

[suspenseful music playing]

[Leon] Sir, the Resistance has more of the Genexium

and a large device which could wipe out the Kulku.

Please clarify. The processor?

[Leon] Not the processor, the Raeg.

[Kor] Where's the weapon?

The Hartnell Observatory.

[Kor] When do they plan on firing?

Some--

Put it down.

-[gun cocks] -Now.

You sold us out.

-Do you want to know why? -No.

I was picked!

So were eight million others.

Do you have any idea what kind of science the Kulku have?

They told me they're not really harvesting us.

-They asked me-- -[gunshot]

How much time do we have?

I'd say about 15 minutes, max.

[suspenseful music playing]

Listen, don't fire until you get a clear shot.

By then, hopefully, I'll be on the ship.

I'll buy you as much time as I can.

[explosion]

-Here, get this inside the chamber. -It's not ready.

Then you'd better hurry.

As soon as I get outside, seal the door.

[man] But how are you gonna get back in?

I'm not coming back.

Bergman, go there.

Johnson, Stephens, here.

MacIntyre, over there.

[beeping]

Okay.

Go.

[gun cocks]

[suspenseful music playing]

[men shouting indistinctly]

I want that device taken out.

[man screams]

Come on, come on!

[dramatic music playing]

[Kor] Move the men away from the door.

[man] Get ready.

[screaming]

[groans]

[man screams]

I'm back.

[grunts]

Take me to my daughter.

I'm not gonna ask you again.

That's one for the humans.

Dr. Baker! Open the dome!

[beeping]

[grenade beeping]

Is it the disease?

No, they died another way.

What do you mean, another way?

Let's go.

What if we're too late?

Then I'll kill you.

Heather…

sweetheart…

[grunts]

[thud]

Blair, how're we coming?

Just get ready to fire when the dome's fully opened!

-You're alive. -Yes.

I'm doing what's necessary for the survival of our race.

You're activating the Raeg.

We both failed, Kor.

Not enough humans were processed in time.

Returning your anomaly alive to Kulku

is the only method of guaranteeing our survival.

-And the Raeg… -Will destroy the Earth

and generate enough power to transport living matter through the wormhole.

She's not going alone, is she?

I swore fealty to you,

to everyone on this mission.

Those men, in the corridor,

you're-- [groans]

[gasps]

You were a promising officer, Kor,

but you became corrupted by our time on this planet.

Your words of duty and honor

are empty

in comparison with your feelings for these people,

and that, my dear Kor,

can be fatal in these desperate times.

[thud]

[panting] Heather…

Heather… Baby, sweetheart, it's Dad.

Who are you?

[grunts]

You can walk, baby.

Easy… easy. I've got you.

Okay, come on.

[railgun fires]

Get down!

Dad, what are you doing?

Let's just hope this guy's never seen any "B" westerns.

Impossible!

[Heather] Dad…

[Stephen] Let her go.

She can continue to exist on Kulku,

or she can die right now.

It's up to you.

Put down your weapon.

[Heather grunts]

[thud]

[gurgling]

Yes! The dome is open!

Holland, fire the damn thing. We're sitting ducks!

Dr. Baker, can you get in position to fire--

I was expecting Jal.

Please.

You don't look so good.

It's the girl who's important.

You're gonna have to kill me before you get to her.

[grunting]

The Raeg will allow her to travel through the wormhole.

She will survive.

And you will destroy my planet in the process.

She's our only hope.

It is my duty.

[switches clacking]

I have no choice.

You're not gonna make it.

It's too late.

[gunshots]

[General Skyler] Blair, you okay?

All my hopes…

[explosion]

You want to know what happened?

A group of idealistic soldiers teamed up with a father

who wouldn't let go of his daughter, and we blew the hell out of your device.

Did I forget anything?

You forgot about all those people they killed.

That's it. It's over.

It's over, baby.

It's over.

And now for the easy part.

-Wait! -Stand down! Stand down!

I thought you said you weren't coming back.

Excuse me.

Uh… this is my daughter, Heather.

This is Blair.

[Blair] You're a lucky girl. Your dad really loves you.

[Heather] I love him too.

Don't I get a kiss too?

[laughter]

[reporter] All over the world, people are beginning to rebuild their lives

after the invasion by the Kulku.

Were governments too hasty in meeting the quota?

Questions like these will be debated for some time.

Only now are we beginning to measure the cost.

People sacrificed to the Kulku: 7,911,000.

Collateral deaths: 533,000.

Resistance casualties: Unknown.

People displaced: Unknown.

Kulku destroyed: Unknown.

We've been changed forever in the short time

since this tragedy occurred.

Would we make the same choices again?
