All language subtitles for Ape.vs.Mecha.Ape.2023.1080p.WEB-DL.DD5.1.H.264

Stop! Stop!
Everyone stop!

Ready?

In positions.

Let's go!
Let's get out of here!

Fire!

Come on.

How hard can it
be to find a giant ape?

There you are...

Damn it!

They put a restriction boundary
over the site.

There's been a breach on
the perimeter at Region Bravo.

That's Abe's current location.

Yeah.

Abraham's vitals
are climbing.

Respiration rate, heart rate,

body temperature, it's all
elevated, and increasing.

He is not happy.

Have security clear the
fence line at Bravo,

and have them report back
when they swept the area.

This is Laura from Observation.

We have a fence line breach
outside Region Bravo.

Clear outer perimeter
of all civilians.

Sweep the area.

Abe's vitals are maintaining
at elevated levels.

Call Sloane,
get her down there.

She's the only one
he'll want to see anyway.

Laura, we have to comply

with our approved
exit strategy protocols.

Now, Abraham knows
she's leaving.

That's part why he's upset.

Which is worse?

Sloane lets him see her,

or his vitals keep increasing
towards unsafe levels.

And what happens when Sloane is
no longer here to calm him down?

If she keeps showing up
when he gets upset,

he'll never learn
to accept the fact that

the project is complete
and that we're leaving.

That she is leaving.

End this side show,
the ape has to go!

End this side show,
the ape has to go!

The ape has to go!

I thought we were in a
72-hour restricted contact.

What happened?

There was a breach.

Region Bravo
perimeter fence line.

It was a drone flew in over
the electrified fence at Bravo.

A drone?
How did it get past the GeoZone?

The GeoZone detected
and decelerated it.

The drone malfunctioned
or something,

it didn't reverse it,
it descended.

Abraham knocked it down.

This thing got
that close to Abe?

Who was flying it?

Protective services has taken
an individual into custody.

Good.

Abraham's vitals have never
reached these levels

at any phase of the study group.

And now they are peaking beyond

safe levels for his condition.

You warned me that
he could show

signs of depression
and anxiety

when we initiated
the exit phase.

Is this any different
than you expected?

Sloane, this is a
45-foot tall primate

who just got back
from space

showing extreme physical growth

and strains of alien DNA
in its blood.

We're making this up
as we go along

with nothing more
than educated guesses.

This thing got close enough
to him to pose

a potential threat and
he knows we're leaving.

These are stress responses

that I can help reduce if
I just let him see me.

Sloane, wait.

He sustained those
stress responses

for much longer than
considered normal.

We don't know what anxiety
can do to the alien DNA

in his blood
or how he'll react.

Anxiety is a very
natural response

when you no longer feel safe.

This project is complete,
but that doesn't absolve us

of the responsibility
to protect Abe.

I don't think the warranty
is going to cover that.

Is this your equipment?

It sort of looks like it.

Our protective detail order says
that your name is Joel Adler.

What am I being detained for?

Trespassing.

There are signs
posted everywhere.

Why were you out there?

I stayed on the public side
of the fence.

Flying a drone that you just
admitted was your property.

I didn't do anything wrong.

Felony criminal trespass.

That's eight years,
a fine of $250,000.

You do not have
permission to be here.

Where is the memory card?

The memory card, do you have it?

Mr. Adler, what are you doing?

Where is the memory card?
I want my footage back.

Why were you filming Abraham?
Who sent you to film him?

The actions of NASA
and RKO Dynamics

as a partnering
defense contractor.

You sent an animal into space
for biological study

and when it came back
in a mutated condition,

you couldn't think of
anything better to do

than to exploit it
as a weapon because

people like you are
turning this country

into a perpetual war machine.

It's been a while since we've
had animal rights advocates

come all the way out
here to check on Abe.

You know what? I'm advocating
for Abe's health and well being.

Mr. Adler, Abraham's
health and well-being

is our only concern here.

Mr. Adler, if your
intentions are genuine,

you need to understand
that your actions today

have upset a very,
very delicate environment

that's essential for
Abraham's well-being.

You're free to go.

But don't come back here or
I will press charges.

Don't forget your drone.

You know what, you can
keep it as a reminder.

You can push a wild animal
far enough.

Sooner or later,
it'll reach its breaking point.

Sloane...
there's something else.

The petition has
enough signatures

to make it to the city council.

They want Abraham to move out of
Worrad immediately, not 60 days.

They told me as much out front.

I refuse to let Abraham
be locked up

in some windowless
metal cell like he was

when he was landed back on Earth

without fresh air or
freedom of movement.

I'm not the one that you
need to convince of this.

Sloane...

Be careful out there.

If you sense at any moment

that Abraham isn't responding
to the colors, call it in.

We'll get you to safety.

It's okay.

We'll start with purple,
let him know things are calm

and relaxed and
we'll go from there.

Don't worry.

Abraham's never given me
a reason not to trust him.

Take this, just in case.

There you are,
there's my Grape Ape.

We're calm, we're cool.

Everything's merry, Boysenberry.

Yeah, there you go, make
yourself more comfortable.

We're calm, we're chilling.

Only good vibes you
and me, right bud?

Hey, Abe.

Abe, you want
to play a game?

Huh?

Let's play ball
in the hole, okay?

Come on!

Come on, Abe.

Hey, here's the ball.

Ball in the hole.

Come on, pick up the ball.

Pick up the ball, Abe, come on.

Hey, hey now.

I know...

Look, that's why I'm here, okay?

To see you.

Abe...

Abe, we talked
about this, didn't we?

How I'm going to see you a
lot less than I did before?

I know, it's sad.

See?

I'm sad, too.

But Abe, that doesn't mean
that this is goodbye, okay?

We'll see each other every
chance that we get, I promise.

Hey, Abe...

Pierce tells me that your
stress levels

have increased more than normal.

You've got to take it easy, bud.

At least until we know how
that alien DNA in your blood

can react to threat stimuli.

Hey, I heard about
the intruder earlier.

I'm really sorry it
was able to get that close.

You have every reason
to be upset.

Hey Abe, don't think
for a minute

that that means
you're not safe.

That's an awful feeling.

Sloane, come in.

The brass are going to
be here soon

for the meeting
about Mecha-Ape.

This... this is all there
is left of our son.

His recruitment band.

Pavla, that ring could belong
to anyone from his platoon.

Now this is all I have.

He was so handsome
when he wore his uniform.

So proud of it.

The women, they noticed.

Those medics were careless
to think we wouldn't want this

to remember him by.

Such disrespect.

The trinket means nothing.

He was buried by an honor guard.

They dug a hole with
the same shovel

they used to put what was left
of my son inside of it.

Arnott,
he was the pride of my country

and this, this is
how they treat us.

Trinket? Wars have been
fought over trinkets.

You, the vice-director of the
Foreign Intelligence Division,

you of anyone
should know this.

The Americans come here
without any... any consequences.

But they're mistaken and
I want them to know.

Their grief?

It is no different
from ours, Arnott.

They will know.

What you have in front of
you are the summary reports

from the field tests of

the mechanized
Apex Peacekeeper

Experimental Tactical
Command Weapon.

Here is our target,

a chemical weapons factory
from Mirkusk, Volodrezjka.

Looks like a tornado hit it.

This facility in Mirkusk is

a converted
pharmaceutical factory,

a key component in establishing

the country's chemical
weapons program.

It had been heavily guarded
by military patrols.

Yes, and multiple
intelligence intercepts

confirmed that there were
in fact manufactured weapons

housed in that facility.

And production
capabilities were in use?

That is correct.

This operation neutralized
a critical asset,

the Volodrezjkan Chemical
Weapons Program.

It crippled their
production capabilities

and kept those materials from
being deployed on civilians.

Right, bombing a stockpile
of chemical agents, of course,

puts surrounding populated areas

and innocent bystanders
at risk of exposure

to those deadly toxins.

But the Mecha-Ape
can do the same thing

without these explosives,
therefore lowering that risk.

Where is it now?

Well, currently we have
Mecha-Ape being de-gloved

of its fur sheathing

for a preliminary
diagnostic evaluation.

And then we'll have it sent
to Rambaldi Army Airfield.

And Laura and I will meet
the C-130 upon its arrival.

Okay, well, all that leaves
now is the matter of Abraham.

Abraham remains
the property of NASA,

and we intend to keep him
under observation.

Not at Worrad.

I've been informed
of a petition

that's already been submitted
by the Sheabel City Council

by a group of local citizens

who don't want Abraham
in their backyard anymore.

No doubt you've all
seen the people outside.

Yes, and we are ready
and willing

to address all of their
concerns

at our next
City Council meeting.

No. The Pentagon assumes
collaborative control

over Abraham based on
the 2020 Memorandum

of Understanding between
the DOD and NASA.

Are we clear?

Where do you plan on housing
Abraham if it's not at Worrad?

We've been making great strides
removing Abraham

from a daily routine that's been
his life for the past 18 months,

but it needs to
be done slowly

in order to avoid
any stress-induced triggers

-that could cause him...
-Could cause what?

Send him on another rampage?
Like in D.C.?

We've been administering
plasma suppressors

to mute any influence of the
alien DNA in his behavior.

Plasma suppressors?

Dr. Pierce, can you assure
us that his alien DNA won't

reactivate some extraterrestrial
command capability

that will direct him to attack
other major cities?

Sloane, the Mecha-Ape program
is complete.

Abraham has
fulfilled his duties.

We will be taking him
into DOD custody.

But that is no life for him.

Your efforts to house
him on an island

or wildlife sanctuary
have been denied.

-Warrod was your last chance.
-General, please.

Abraham is an extremely
intelligent being.

He's capable of the
same confusion and sadness

that any animal would feel

if their freedom had
been taken from them.

Sloane, we have taken every
available precaution

to prevent separation anxiety
in a giant ape.

Abraham has become
extremely close to us.

Sloane in particular.

If you lock him up
and take him away

from contact of the outside
world, it will devastate him.

We could move him to
a classified facility

where he could live out
the rest of his days

without these stress-induced
triggers

you're so concerned about.

Sounds like you just want
to send him to a farm upstate.

We've seen firsthand the power
this animal is capable of.

The Pentagon places an
extremely high value

on safeguarding any asset

that has the capability for
that kind of destruction.

We believe it's part of
the payload from

a B-52 Stratofortress

that broke up over Maryland
in March of 1968.

Sir, the Stratofortress
was equipped with

a pair of 1.2-megaton-yield
Mark V9 thermonuclear bombs.

What kind of danger does
this pose for the public?

The device was partially
armed when it separated

from the aircraft.

The arming sequence
had already started,

but multiple arming mechanisms
would still need to engage

in order for it
to pose a threat.

Unless the core is decaying.

We transported the Mark 9
to a DEG research laboratory,

where EOD will take custody

and examine it before
removing the core.

Sir, we will need
to issue

a public safety statement
about this.

Okay.

Well, the device
is 60 years old.

It was underwater since
the Johnson administration.

There is no danger
whatsoever to the public.

We've removed it,
taken it to a safe place,

and are deactivating it.

Very good, sir.

What do you have?

Satellite images, radio traffic,

all pointing to the discovery
of one of their broken arrows.

Mmm.

A fishing vessel has recovered

a thermonuclear device 24 miles
off the coast of Virginia.

We believe it is a Mark V9.

They are moving the weapon
to a facility

in the state of Indiana,

under the authority
of the US military.

That is a great opportunity.

Yes.
We must go right away.

We will need munitions
and communications.

Consider it done.

We will meet you in Indiana.

Well, this is Indiana.

I want everything up
and running in one hour.

Their weapon.
Is it viable?

Our information suggests

the thermonuclear stage
is still intact.

When does it arrive at this lab?

It is already en route
in one of their SGTs.

You've given up a
very small window

to infiltrate and extract.

This is why you are here, Zara.

Why I have selected all
of you

to carry out this objective
for the great sovereignty.

And is our great sovereignty
aware we are carrying out

this objective on their behalf,
Vice Director?

The Americans believe
they own the world

and that this gives them the
right to send their war machines

to any place it
serves their interests.

History must learn
from this mistake.

The FID alone is duty bound
to carry out this mission

and turn their own
war machine against them.

Must give her a hand.
She has guts.

Proceed.

Reassigning LIDAR
data packet format.

Editing master dominion
channels for remote capture.

Target radius in two minutes.

Wake it up.

Huh.

Madam Deputy Secretary,

I hope this means you got a
change of heart

when it comes to Abe's...

What?

When was this?

What is it?
What's wrong?

ATC lost contact with the plane
in around 4:18 this morning

somewhere over northern Indiana

and reports of debris is spread
out for miles all over the area.

Some of it maybe even
landed in Lake Michigan,

but none of it's from Mecha-Ape

It's only from
the transport itself.

How is that possible?

Debris in that area means
something must have happened

after the initial descent.

Mecha-Ape would have
never survived

a crash at that altitude.

Yeah, that might be the case.

GPS and PNT backup
have been non-responsive.

They can't locate Mecha-Ape.

What, they can't locate it?

So no one knows where it's at.
Are they serious?

Look, we're going on
site of the scene

to help with the
investigation right now.

We'll know more when we land.
Okay?

End this sideshow,
the ape has to go!

End this sideshow,
the ape has to go!

Send him back to
where he came from.

He belongs in a zoo.

Dr. Nelson, this is security.

That individual from
this morning is back,

says he's a professor

and something about
plasma suppressors.

He actually said
plasma suppressors?

All right, I'll speak to him.

Pierce, right?

Professor Adler?
Is that a joke?

No joke.

I'm chairman of the astronomy
department at Rankin College.

Look, all this time,
humans have been searching

for intelligent life out
of there in the universe,

but we have it now in Abraham,

and it's bigger than we
could have ever imagined.

Is that what you
were doing at Worrad?

Studying him,
trying to provoke

some kind of extraterrestrial
response to him, huh?

Trying to prove
one of your theories?

Sloane told you not
to come back.

No, look, I know, okay?

I know, but you studied
Abraham's blood.

You'll understand
what I have to say.

Make it quick.

Okay, look, my drone, all right,

he attacked it when
I got too close.

I mean, he could have
ignored it,

but something that small,

that insignificant?

I mean,
he viewed it as a threat,

and his vitals
peaked, right?

Yeah.

Okay, so look,
we saw what Abraham

and that lizard did
in Washington, D.C.,

and the conspiracy theorists
online are going nuts

about alien mind control,
which is crazy.

I mean, it sounds crazy,

but if it's not,
if that's the case...

You would have used
a plasma suppressor

to target that alien DNA,

and I have a theory
about that DNA.

I think it's going
to go dormant.

Listen...

You study apes.

You're one of the best there is,

but I study astrophysics
and extraterrestrial life.

I can help.

So why am I giving
you some of my time?

Think of it as a virus, okay?

The viral DNA uses our cells
to replicate itself,

and the body fights back,

trying to stop the invading
virus from replicating.

So, except it can't get rid
of all of the remnants

of that alien DNA.
It's stuck to our genetic code.

So the body has no option
but to just shut down.

Making the viral DNA dormant.

Yeah, that was the basis
of plasma suppressors,

speed up the process.

Okay, but the alien DNA
can still mutate

in that dormant state.

Look, how smart
is this alien DNA?

Is it fighting against Abraham,

or is it smart enough
to choose to surrender?

What do you mean, to surrender?

Do you think that it's
lying in wait to, what,

makes defects in Abe's genes?

To cause some
major reaction in him?

Look, our genes, our DNA, it
makes up 60% of our personality.

How we understand,
how we listen,

how we think, how we react, how
we overreact in our environment.

What if it's not
the plasma suppressors

that are keeping that
alien DNA dormant?

What if it's...

What if it's smart enough,

it's choosing to do that?

Effectively just lying, waiting,

changing Abe's
genetic structure,

letting the virus replicate?

There's no telling what
that would do to Abraham.

No, and if he freaks out again,

I mean, it could be 10 times
worse than what happened in D.C.

The robot vacuum has mapped out
the main floors of the EEG lab,

contained in these sections.

We have the reception lobby,
main corridors, laboratories,

the break room.

Common areas for employees.

Security guard posts,
located here.

There are four guards on patrol
of the first floor at all times.

Four more on the second
floor, all under watchful eye

of facial recognition
surveillance software.

We must do this without
alerting second-floor detail.

And by the time they realize
what happened,

the device will already be ours.

We have received
photographic intel

from the internal surveillance.

We already know that
nuclear disposal laboratories

are on the first floor.

That leaves three
possible sections

where Mark V9 will
be housed in this map.

Behind highly strict,
very sensitive keycard scanners

and barometric readers.

Their security personnel
will assist us with those.

Your dummy robot vacuum mapped
everything pretty quickly.

Sometimes the easiest
Trojan horse attack

is to see what they've
already allowed inside

of their homes and workplace,

instead of using brute force
on their cybersecurity.

Not bad.

Hey, perhaps I have a future

in your counterintelligence
department.

For a little robot?

Show me what you can do
with a bigger one,

and maybe we can talk.

You will see, Zara.

They all will.

Sloane used color
communication with Abraham?

Yep.

They emit high-lumen
multicolor LED beams.

Jeez, you weren't kidding.

You can see this
from space, right?

Yeah.

Well, we had to figure out a
way for Abe to understand us,

considering the enormous
size difference.

Sloane, she developed
this method of communication

using colors to express

what she
wanted to say.

So purple was when she was calm,

orange when she was
under distress.

Green when she was sad,

yellow happy, and then
red was the last resort

when she showed urgency, anger,

for him to stop, back off.

For her to show
him that she was serious.

And this worked?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, it was incredible
how quickly he took on to it.

It was the beginning of a bond
that made them close

when they could understand
what each other was saying.

Hey, you think I could use it?

You know,
get face-to-face with Abe?

Uh... I'm afraid
this is the closest

you're going to get
to Abraham today.

Any closer and
I'd have to deal with Sloane.

No.

Every member of the security
team for day and evening shifts,

categorized by their seniority

and when they're
scheduled to work.

Just in time.

Blanca has solved our
alarm situation.

I'm exploiting the main
problem instead of solving it.

This is an extreme
security apparatus.

We could be working for
weeks to find a way

inside of the system
and blind the cameras.

And we don't have weeks.

No, we don't.

So we don't blind them.

I turn the cameras
against themselves.

This lab's facial
recognition software

records every face it sees,
including the guards.

So I assign a worm to one of
the guard's faces in the system.

When the camera sees that face,

the worm is triggered

and we let the system do the
work of infecting itself.

It'd be one of the guards
from out of here.

And that infection will start
the playback loop

that replays the last five
hours of surveillance footage

stored on their cloud.

They will never know
we are inside.

It's the best I could do on
such a short period of time.

Very good.

Intercepts have the
Mark V9 arriving at DEG

in two hours and 35 minutes.

This one.
He looks mean.

Peter Elliott.
Nice to meet you.

Sloane Foster, this is
Laura Miller of NASA,

Deputy Secretary Boyd of
the DOD granted us clearance.

We're here about
the weapon system

that was on board that plane.

Arnott, we are ready.

Pavla the Piranha.

I wonder who really is the
brains behind our objective.

Now it's no secret why
we are keeping

this a secret from
FID headquarters.

I'm sure there's only one whom
Arnott is more fearful of.

And to tell you the truth,
in Pavla's day,

I too would choose
the harsh prison camp

at Dralzh over denying the
Piranha revenge for her son.

Your attention.

Once this begins,
there is no stopping it.

There will be
no second thoughts.

You will each take a weapon.

We will split into three teams.

I want constant contact

until the Mark V9 is
located in the lab.

We have map of inside.

We know where the threats lie.

And three possible locations
for the dismantle laboratory.

Once the Mark V9 arrives,

facility will go
on maximum lockdown.

We must be inside
before this happens.

There is security protocols.

These have been
bypassed already?

Affirmative.

Now, let the Americans witness
the terror they have built.

Entering destination coordinates
for autonomous control.

This is SAR command.

We have something rising
out of the sand.

Mecha-Ape has initiated
a mobilization command cycle.

What is happening?

All systems at full status.

No damage reports.

The Mecha-Ape is in motion.

The sand dunes cushioned its
fall from the plane as planned.

Very good.

Suit up.
We move out.

We've arrived at the DEG site.
Prepare to infiltrate.

Remember, we need
the guard to activate

the security worm
with the cameras.

The worm is now active.

They'll be watching the same
camera footage on loop.

The warhead just arrived.

Site looks clear.
Go ahead for lockdown.

SGT on site.
SGT on site.

The device is about
to go on facility.

All posts go max lockdown.

Madam Deputy Secretary,
it's Sloane Foster.

Mecha-Ape has been activated
outside of our control.

The ambulatory capacity
on Mecha-Ape

allows for it to cover a lot
of ground in very little time.

Come on.
Let's go.

I have to get into the
instrument column of Mecha-Ape.

That is not an option
at the moment, Sloane.

We don't even know where it is.

Follow the wreckage.

Sir, sir, the Air
Force National Guard

is scrambling F-35s to engage.

I want to know how this
super weapon went rogue

and started leveling
family homes.

We are trying to ascertain
the cause of this right now.

I need to know who or
what we're dealing with

and shut it down right now.

Shut it down!

The unidentified
mechanized weapon

continues to leave a trail of
destruction heading northwest.

There have been reports of
two downed military jets

as well as
countless property damage

and thick smoke for miles.

So far, 34 people
have been injured,

but fortunately, no fatalities.

It was last seen heading
toward Honda Square.

If you're in that area,

turn around and stay away
from the downtown square.

Honda Square.
Go to the downtown span.

He just had to stay away
from that area.

-What are you thinking?
-I have to get on board!

On board Mecha-Ape?

If I don't get access to the
manual control compartment

and get into
the instrument column,

we won't be able to stop it.

We know where it's heading,
just go there.

There! Stop the car!
Drop me off.

That is an insane idea, Sloane.
It's not going to work.

Oh God, what are
you thinking, Sloane?

Okay.

Okay.

Come on, come on.

Come on...

Okay...
Come on, come on, come on.

Okay.

This isn't right.

No.

None of this is right.

None of this code
should be here.

Mecha-Ape has been...

Mecha-Ape has been hijacked.

Okay.

Come on, Sloane.
Answer your phone, please.

Tell me you made it.
I know you made it.

You're not dead.

Sloane, you're alive.
Where are you?

Laura, the command line
interface has been accessed.

Someone's rewritten the prompts.

The LIDAR data packets
have been breached.

Well...

The master dominion channels
have been edited.

Laura?

Someone else has control of
Mecha-Ape right now.

Uh...

Whoever did this,
they programmed coordinates

into the autonomous control.

They're directing Mecha-Ape
to a specific location.

Wait...

I've been locked out
of data edit command.

I can't reprogram
anything on here. Okay...

Laura, take down
these coordinates.

Figure out
what's at this location.

Okay, go ahead.

Yeah, Laura.

Wait, Laura, where are you?

And where's Sloane?

What?
How did this happen?

I have the security guard post.

Three of the guards
taken in here.

One more is on patrol
in the building.

Not anymore.

He didn't put up much fight.

They never do, my dear.

Come.

There it is.

We have eyes on the device.

Laura, did you
find those coordinates?

Sloane, those coordinates are
for a place

called DEG Research Labs.

It's a nuclear materials lab.

A storage facility?

They bring decommissioned
warheads to that location.

Wait, Mecha-Ape is being
steered to that location.

We have to warn them.

I'll have to head to
that location, then.

Hold on, Laura.

I think there's something else.

Wait, I think I recognize...

What is it?

Sloane?

This programming language,
it's foreign,

but I've seen it before.

Yeah, it's an esoteric code
used by troll farms

of Volodrezjkan intelligence.

They designed it to be
incomprehensible to outsiders.

Oh, my God.

The Volodrezjkan FID have
taken control of Mecha-Ape.

But they won't keep it.

What more do we know?

Defense intelligence.
The NSA.

Office of the DNI.
The CIA.

There was no chatter of any
kind of potential attack.

Every communique intercepted
by foreign services

didn't even hint at
any kind of prior warning

of something of
this magnitude on our soil.

Did somebody fail to connect
the dots with the intercepts?

Sir, the DNI insists there
were no dots to connect here.

This wasn't a failure
of intelligence.

There just was no
advanced warning.

So this weapon malfunctioned.
Is that what you're telling me?

Based on the information
we have at this time,

that does seem
to be a possibility.

Then who would know for sure?

NASA?
The people that built it?

Where are they?

Sir, I would order a
third wave mobilization

of the National Guard.
Take this thing out.

By air or land,
but take it out.

That thing is
a walking arsenal.

The first two waves were
completely ineffective.

That would only be adding
to collateral damage.

What would you suggest, Audra?

Jesus H. Christ!

We got another Washington, D.C.
at our hands.

We need to set the tone.

We need to fight this with
an appropriate response.

-Sir?
-Sir?

We don't need to send more
National Guardsmen to die.

We'll send the ape. Abraham.

Abraham?

You're going to send another
one of those things out there?

Abraham has a size
advantage we lack.

I don't know what
other choice we have.

Nuclear's not an option.

Wait a minute.
The President can suspend

certain protocols
under Congress.

That's Posse Comitatus.

That only applies
for the aftermath

of a natural disaster
or an act of terror.

That puts more troops at play.
That's not happening.

Yes, but this counts for both.
Look what's happening out there.

Aftermath.
Not active engagement.

Even with an emergency order,

what would you suggest we do
that the Air National Guard

and the Army National Guard
hasn't tried?

Sir, I don't know,

but what I do know is
more bombs on the street,

on Main Street, USA only
threatens more American lives.

And the larger they get,
the more fallout we have.

I know it's unorthodox, but you
built this walking arsenal.

Well, congratulations.
Hell of a job.

But that leaves us with one
option to take it down.

And it better work.

Check the magnetic sheath.
We're behind schedule.

We need to be out front in
two minutes or we're in trouble.

Come on, come on, come on.

You wanna shut me out of
the command interface?

I'll shut down all
the weapon CPUs.

The only thing is
that the National Guard

will come there to stop it.

What is Sloane thinking?

She's in their crosshairs.

She's liable to get killed.

Hold up.

Those are helicopters.

Oh, crap.

They're headed for Worrad.
Come on.

Laura, there are military
helicopters approaching Worrad.

Pierce, what are you
talking about?

They must be here for Abe.

Are you sure?

Three of Mecha-Ape's weapons
systems have gone offline.

Get them back on.
We have no time to waste.

I am working on it.
Their CPUs.

They've all gone into shutdown.

Move it! Mecha-Ape approaching,
strike target of building.

I've rebooted remote
armature command control. Hurry!

Do it quickly!
Get out of the way!

I am bringing the arm down!

Ugh!

Oof!

Oh!

Ah!

Is this what you call
cooperative control?

Dr. Nelson,
you were fully aware.

You send a fleet of helicopters
without any warning!

Did you not listen
to a word we said?

This will only upset him.

It's for his own protection,

just until the Mecha-Ape
is contained.

Protection against what?

Dr. Nelson, we will
continue to rely

on your expertise for his care,

but right now, we are in
an emergency situation.

Lives are at stake.

We're making it as painless
as possible for Abraham.

Just a mild sedative,
fired from--

No, no guns, please.

Dr. Nelson, stand down.
It's too late.

The orders have been given.

No, no, no, no, no.
You're making a huge mistake.

Okay, what you're doing

is going to have
cataclysmic consequences.

Okay, it's Strangeland theory.

You put an animal
in a foreign place,

it fights back against it.

You put it at home,
it fights to protect it.

Okay, it's basic premise.

Look, Abe is a victim
of NASA's cruel,

scientific,
biological experiments

and impacts of spaceflight.

I mean, you sent that
animal into space.

Okay, and when he got back,

he didn't recognize
Earth as his home.

So, so he's fighting.

Trying to find where he belongs.

Who is this?
Who invited him here?

Madam Deputy Secretary,
listen to me very carefully.

Sloane is aboard the Mecha-Ape.

You mean Sloane is
aboard the Mecha-Ape?

-What is she talking about?
-Is she involved in this?

-No!
-What?

No, she's trying to
prevent any more damage.

I suggest you follow her lead.

What does that mean?

Leave Abraham at Worrad.

There's no telling how much
worse this is going to get

if you don't.

Which is precisely why we're
taking control of him now.

No, no.

Ma'am, listen.

We're trying to warn you, okay?

You are making
a massive mistake.

Just tell us where
you're taking him.

I can't.
Not right now.

Ah!

Foster, what is
she doing in there?

Apparently, she's attempting
to shut it down, sir.

From inside the thing?

Yes, yes,
that's my understanding

of the current situation.

You don't think she's
behind this, do you?

Sir, I've known
Sloane a long time.

As bizarre as it may sound,
she's not behind this.

Well, I hope she realizes if
it comes down to a decision

between her and
tens of thousands of lives,

I got no choice.

Sir, everything that Dr. Nelson
has been telling us

about Abraham suggests when
he discovers she's in there,

he'll tear that thing
to pieces to get her out.

So that makes him
my best chance to stop it.

Yes, sir.

I'll be in touch once
we're in the air.

I'm on with the White House
at 10 minutes.

Potus is in
a secure location.

George ain't curious no more.

All units move into position
for multi-point airlift evac.

Are the weapons systems
back online?

I've rebooted most of the CPUs,
but we have another problem.

Someone is inside
the Mecha-Ape.

This person is probably
the one who shut them down.

Who is inside? I thought
the weapon operated on its own.

How do you know
someone is inside?

They have made multiple attempts
to access the command interface

from the manual
control compartment.

And this compartment
is on board?

Yes.

What harm can they do?

We have control
of that abomination.

The warhead has
been taken by it.

You said manual control.
Can they override your program?

I've locked all the command
ports to the operating system.

They shut off the CPUs before.
Can they do this again?

Not anymore.
I've locked them off.

I suppose the only damage
they could do now is,

I guess, taking apart the
mechanical ape bolt by bolt.

And what if they
start doing this

and then go for the CPUs first?

It won't go for the CPU.

If the CPUs become
disconnected from the system,

the weapons systems
fire automatically.

It is standard
failsafe protocol.

Target approaching.
All units begin descent.

Let's ease the monkey
down gently.

On my mark.
Three, two, one, mark.

Here we go.

I'm going to shut
down the power.

There's a nuclear warhead.

There's a nuclear warhead
attached to Mecha-Ape.

And it's headed towards Chicago.

You have to evacuate the city!

Can you hear me?

Sloane?
Sloane, I can't hear you.

What?

What is that noise?

Evacuate the city!

Abraham!

Abraham!

Come on, Abe.

What? All the weapons
CPUs rebooted?

Shit, I'm locked
out of here, too.

Oh, God.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on!

Red means stop!

Back away! Come on,
Grape Ape, you remember!

Red! Red!

Yeah.

Good boy, Abe!

Good boy.

Sloane! Are you alright?

I'm here at the DEG and
it's completely destroyed.

Laura, there's a nuclear device
attached to my Mecha-Ape.

That's why they
targeted DEG lab.

There's a live warhead on board.

I've seen it and

I think they plan on
detonating it in Chicago.

And Laura, there's
something else.

The Pentagon is using Abraham
to stop that from happening.

I want updates every half hour

until every piece of wreckage
is accounted for.

Audra Boyd.

The Volodrezjkan FID has
assumed control of Mecha-Ape.

Sloane, Sloane, are you okay?
You're on board?

-Put her on speaker.
-Okay, okay.

Sloane, you're on speaker.

I'm here with General Deane
and the Secretary of Defense.

It's the Volodrezjkan Foreign
Intelligence Division.

They've hijacked Mecha-Ape

and they've attached
a nuclear device to it.

I'd say I'm about seven miles
outside of Chicago.

They got the Mark V9
out of that facility.

That's impossible.
It can't be.

She's got eyes on it.
I believe her.

Evacuate the city immediately.

I'm going to attempt to
disable the tether system.

It governs the central mechanics

and the central
power generators.

It should disable all
the electrical mechanics

and the stabilizers and
the armatures

and the mechanics
of the weapon system.

They'll still be live.
They just can't be operated.

We'll initiate evacuation
measures immediately.

And, Boyd, Abraham is injured.

Find him and contain him.

Affirmative, but Sloane,

take care of yourself
and just make sure

the Mecha-Ape doesn't
reach Chicago.

That's a 1.2 megaton bomb
it's carrying.

Foster, this is Defense
Secretary Hamilton.

Listen to me.

If that bomb activates,

you've got to dispose of it

before it detonates

and it's got to be
somewhere very, very deep.

Where?
Where would she go?

Desable Park?

That might be deep enough.
It's a giant hole.

Why is there a giant hole
in the middle of Chicago?

The Chicago Spire.

It's supposed to be the
tallest building in Chicago

before they canceled it
after they drilled

into pure bedrock
100 and some feet.

That may be our best chance
if this goes sideways.

Sloane, the city
is being evacuated.

You need to get to
warhead to Desable Park.

Understood.

So Abraham is wounded.

There are multiple sightings
of him across three states,

but no credible sources have
been able to locate him.

You can't just
lose a giant ape.

Unless he's dead.

Sir, if Abraham has indeed
succumbed to his injuries,

we need to order a quick
and decisive counterattack.

That is a very
credible argument, sir.

But if he is alive,
he might be injured so badly,

he can't put up a fight.

Live coverage of the disaster
unfolding right now.

What appears to be some
type of

large autonomous
mechanized weapon system.

They have used the ape.

Weapon systems?

All weapon systems online.
Ammunition counts above 85%.

Keep monitoring.

The jet is ready
for our departure.

Traffic patterns
throughout the city

are congested from
the first attack.

The warhead will
reach Chicago soon.

Tell Zara we're going home.

And when we do return,

the FID will be waiting
to take us into custody.

Acting without their
knowledge was the only way

to keep American intelligence
in the dark.

If our own agency did
not know what we were doing,

neither would the Americans.

Arnott, we do not
have to go back.

We disappear for good.

What's done is done for
our son and our country.

I am prepared to take
responsibility for my actions

and accept whatever
consequences may come.

We have a problem.

The Mecha-Ape is showing
a gradual decrease in power.

Sloane?

Hey, where are you?

Picking up Pierce and Adler.

I had NASA
send them in from Worrad.

They've been tracking
his levels.

It's already spiking past
designated safe levels.

Sloane?
Are you still there?

Yeah, I dismantled
the tether system

and the power is
decreasing slowly.

We're too close.

What do you mean
you're too close?

I'm already about five miles
outside of the city.

The tether is
decreasing too slowly.

I can't power down in time.

Abraham saw me.
He knows I'm in here.

I'll need him. I can
color-communicate with him.

He's probably searching
for Mecha-Ape by now.

He won't have to look that far.
That thing is taller than him.

Yeah, hold on.

I'm going to step out on
the maintenance platform

and see if I can spot him.

Oh, no, no, no.

Laura, I can't
get out of here.

The hatch door is stuck.

It must have got
damaged during the fight.

You can't proceed with that plan
if you're trapped in there!

Abe could kill you
without knowing.

No.

Abe's never given me a reason
not to trust him.

Sloane dismantled the tether,

but it's powering
down too slowly.

Abe's vitals are climbing.

He's getting...
He's getting way too dangerous.

She needs him to help her
to stop Mecha-Ape

before he goes all
warhead and goes off.

She's using color-com.

Wait, she's still inside?

Yes, and she can't get back out
the same way she got in.

No, okay.
Is there any other exits?

None.
It's a maintenance access.

She shouldn't even be there.

Sloane's putting her life on
the line, but we can help her.

How?

Abraham's vitals.
They're extremely elevated.

So when he confronts Mecha-Ape,
they're going to peek.

Okay, and we don't know what
would happen at that point.

However we stop,
whatever happens,

we've got to sedate him again.

And you don't think that's
going to make it worse?

We're not going to tranq him.

Aerosol.

Okay, all right,
but if it's airborne,

it has to be concentrated.

Way more concentrated than
what they used last time.

-How do we administer it?
-My plane's that way.

-Okay, let's go.
-Let's go.

Abraham!

Distress signal!

Distress, Abe!

Oh!

Uh-huh, yeah...

Come on, Abe! Yeah!

Happy!
Keep punching, Abe!

I'm happy you're
kicking his ass!

Come on, Abe!
Keep going!

Where did you learn how to fly?

When you study aliens, you
got to get closer to them.

Abraham and Mecha-Ape have
landed in the city.

Failing...

Keep going, Abe!

A little more and I can
shut down the weapons mechanism!

Yeah! Yeah!

You smash this thing
until I tell you to stop!

Laura, we're in big trouble!

Sloane?

Sloane, where are you?

Abraham's gone crazy and
I can't get him to stop!

He's damaged
the Kilopower Reactor

and if he keeps smashing Mecha

the reactor will melt down!

Are you all right?

Sloane!

I have to stop Abe!

I have no choice!

Sloane!
Sloane, I can't hear you!

Abraham's gone crazy and he
won't stop attacking Mecha-Ape!

The Kilopower
Reactor's damaged!

She's lost complete
control of him!

The nuclear warhead is
on the Mecha-Ape.

If the Kilopower Reactor
goes into full meltdown,

it'll be hot enough
to trigger that nuke.

She has got to stop Abraham!

Sloane!

Are you there?

Stop, Abe!

Stop, please!

Please, Abe!
Stop!

Please, I don't want
to hurt you!

Please, please, Abe!

If I unplug the weapon CPUs
from the mainframe,

it'll trigger the
fail-safe launch!

I'm sorry, Abe.

I'm so sorry, Abe.

I'm sorry I couldn't
protect you.

I'll have to live with that
for the rest of my life.

Hold on.

We're losing altitude.

We're going down!

-Hold on.
-That nuke's gonna detonate.

Come on, baby.

Come on.

I don't see Sloane!

I don't know if
she can make it on!

If Abraham stays berserk,

he can end up killing her
before she dismantles it.

Look, we're gonna have
one shot at this.

We're losing altitude fast.

When we reach target elevation,
Pierce, pull that lever.

I-- I see Abraham moving!

I think he's trying
to stand up!

What?

There's no way he could
have survived that.

With that alien DNA
in his system,

it probably accelerated
his immunity

and his healing ability.

There's an absolute way
he could survive that.

Not yet, Pierce.
Wait for me to tell you.

Okay, now! Now!

Damn it!

We missed him!
We completely missed him!

We're in trouble here, guys.

Brace yourselves!

The warhead.

Abe... Abe!

Abe!

Abe!

Abe! Abe! Stop!

No, Abe!

Abe!

Abe, it's me!

Abraham!

Abraham!

Abraham!

Abraham, come on!

Let's play a game, huh?

-Oh, no.
-Oh, shit.

She's still alive.

Look!
The weapon's still attached!

Mecha-Ape, there he is!
Where's Sloane?

Go!
Go, go, go, go, go!

Abraham!

Come here, buddy!
Let's play a game!

Come on, buddy!
Come on!

Come on, buddy!

Come on, Abe!

Let's play a game, Abe!

Come on!

Ball in the hole, Abe!

Oh!

Maybe we need to rethink
the design on the next version.

No, no new version.

The Mecha-Ape program is done.

No more.

There's only room in this town
for one ape, and he's it.

Maybe now the Pentagon
will give him a hero's reward.

If the Pentagon wants
to hassle anyone,

how about the guys
who did this?

- Give them a hard time instead.
- Yeah.

There will be no hero's
welcome for us, Arnott.

How daft are you?

Throwing away a distinguished
career when all you've done,

all we've done, is fight for
the glory of the sovereignty?

We have failed.

The tribunal may
still show mercy.

I'm not ready
to take that risk.

Perhaps that is something you
should have thought of before.

Perhaps you should think how
to talk to me more nicely.

We would be fugitives
the rest of our lives.

The FID will find us.
Kill us both.

No tribunal necessary.

Now that risk,
I'm willing to take.

Do we both step off
this plane now,

or shall we choose a different
destination other than home?

Down!
Get down!

Let me see you hands!

Don't move!
Hands down!

You, don't move!
You, don't move!

Ahh!

Attaboy, Abe!

You're show them who
they're messing with.

Private island,
nobody for miles.

Come on, look at that place.
It's paradise.

Definitely a far cry
from what the Pentagon

had planned for him.

Abe saved millions of lives.

The least we could do is try
to improve the quality of his.

Does this arrangement
still fall

under the cooperative
control agreement?

He's all yours.
NASA has sole custody.

If Abe's happy, we're happy.

Because I've seen him
when he's not.

Yeah, and he seems
to like it here.

I have to agree,
so do I.

So what do you think?

I think we're home.
