Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:58,974 --> 00:01:01,653
Thats Orion right there,
2
00:01:02,103 --> 00:01:03,561
the triangle.
3
00:01:03,834 --> 00:01:06,633
And that is Cassiopia.
4
00:01:07,406 --> 00:01:09,559
- Cassiopia?
- Yeah.
5
00:01:09,868 --> 00:01:11,836
Who was she?
6
00:01:12,468 --> 00:01:14,001
No idea.
7
00:01:15,975 --> 00:01:17,406
Thats the big dipper,
8
00:01:18,476 --> 00:01:22,605
and here we have another celestial body.
9
00:01:25,034 --> 00:01:26,753
What do you think you're doing?
10
00:01:26,779 --> 00:01:28,654
I'm about to go
11
00:01:28,934 --> 00:01:30,533
where no man
12
00:01:30,559 --> 00:01:31,859
has gone before.
13
00:01:42,585 --> 00:01:44,064
It's a satellite.
14
00:01:44,855 --> 00:01:47,007
This is so sick, look at that thing.
15
00:01:47,345 --> 00:01:49,078
I don't know Jeff, maybe...
16
00:01:49,277 --> 00:01:53,712
maybe we should leave it alone.
It could be radioactive and stuff.
17
00:02:11,215 --> 00:02:14,479
- Should we tell Marti?
- Are you kidding me? No.
18
00:02:14,505 --> 00:02:17,160
The old fart would just grab it and take all the glory.
19
00:02:28,570 --> 00:02:29,899
It's gone.
20
00:02:30,968 --> 00:02:31,833
Great,
21
00:02:31,859 --> 00:02:33,619
Mandrake's going to sit a brick.
22
00:02:42,538 --> 00:02:44,443
Bright light, big city,
23
00:02:44,469 --> 00:02:45,868
excitement.
24
00:02:45,894 --> 00:02:47,859
Peadmont, Utah,
25
00:02:47,885 --> 00:02:50,379
the armpit of nowhere.
26
00:02:50,405 --> 00:02:52,196
Awful quiet down there.
27
00:02:54,499 --> 00:02:55,971
What are those?
28
00:02:59,228 --> 00:03:00,565
Buzzards.
29
00:03:07,333 --> 00:03:08,880
This is Caper One.
30
00:03:08,906 --> 00:03:12,381
Project Scoop appears to have been moved.
I'm following the signal.
31
00:03:12,407 --> 00:03:13,788
Roger that, Caper One.
32
00:03:28,158 --> 00:03:30,366
No signs yet of any life,
33
00:03:30,392 --> 00:03:33,430
except for this joker staring at us in his pick-up.
34
00:03:38,037 --> 00:03:39,826
Rounding the corner.
35
00:03:41,418 --> 00:03:43,324
Hold on.
36
00:03:46,896 --> 00:03:48,802
Looks like a war zone.
37
00:03:49,514 --> 00:03:51,439
Tell me I'm not seeing this.
38
00:03:51,792 --> 00:03:53,806
This town is full of bodies.
39
00:04:00,454 --> 00:04:05,860
Over here, over here, help me!
Help me man, you've got to help me!
40
00:04:13,855 --> 00:04:16,682
Oh God, no. No, no, no no!
41
00:04:19,591 --> 00:04:20,892
No!
42
00:04:21,561 --> 00:04:24,863
No, no, no, no, nooo!
43
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,003
- Where was this again?
- Piedmont, Utah. It's an old mining town.
44
00:04:33,030 --> 00:04:36,253
There's a state park nearby.
It's remote, very isolated.
45
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,135
We seem to have caught a break there.
46
00:04:38,161 --> 00:04:40,956
You'll forgive me if I don't
share your sense of gratitude.
47
00:04:40,982 --> 00:04:42,339
Was it the Korean's?
48
00:04:42,365 --> 00:04:43,796
I think thats unlikely.
49
00:04:43,822 --> 00:04:45,049
Who then?
50
00:04:45,075 --> 00:04:46,070
We don't know.
51
00:04:46,096 --> 00:04:47,865
We're quarantining the area.
52
00:04:47,891 --> 00:04:49,623
This road is closed, ma'am.
53
00:04:49,649 --> 00:04:53,664
You need to detour back around using state road 46.
54
00:04:53,690 --> 00:04:58,763
I'll also have a predator on an
over-flight in the next couple of hours;
I'll know more then.
55
00:04:58,789 --> 00:05:00,748
I'll notify the department of homeland security.
56
00:05:00,774 --> 00:05:02,785
Let me handle that.
57
00:05:03,659 --> 00:05:05,131
And the White House?
58
00:05:08,807 --> 00:05:10,135
Chuck.
59
00:05:10,923 --> 00:05:12,291
I'll take care of both.
60
00:05:12,317 --> 00:05:15,345
I'm also required to initiate the Wildfire protocol.
61
00:05:15,371 --> 00:05:17,979
Does Dr. Stone still have the team?
62
00:05:18,005 --> 00:05:21,149
Untill they pry his cold dead fingers off the door.
63
00:05:21,528 --> 00:05:25,237
I don't suppose there's any way round him?
64
00:05:29,806 --> 00:05:31,194
I can't watch him 24 hours a day.
65
00:05:31,299 --> 00:05:32,823
Do you even know where Lance is?
66
00:05:32,927 --> 00:05:37,082
Are you questioning my parenting?
67
00:05:37,187 --> 00:05:39,126
How long have you
been off your meds? Oh!
68
00:05:39,231 --> 00:05:41,810
The great Dr. Stone
lays down the law.
69
00:05:41,914 --> 00:05:43,836
Nations tremble
and nubile graduate students
70
00:05:43,940 --> 00:05:46,573
spread their legs.
Look, you're not safe, all right?
71
00:05:46,678 --> 00:05:49,500
You're not safe to yourself
or to our son.
72
00:05:49,604 --> 00:05:51,040
Are you threatening me?
73
00:05:51,144 --> 00:05:54,036
Don't you try to bully me or I
will drag you back into court.
74
00:06:00,873 --> 00:06:05,034
Yes.
Dr. Jeremy Stone.
75
00:06:05,137 --> 00:06:06,798
I'm Dr. Stone.
76
00:06:06,902 --> 00:06:07,510
There's been a Wildfire alert.
77
00:06:07,614 --> 00:06:10,175
My orders are to gather you
78
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,721
and the rest of your team right away.
79
00:06:20,234 --> 00:06:21,882
Lisa.
80
00:06:21,986 --> 00:06:23,978
Please get yourself
checked in.
81
00:06:27,804 --> 00:06:29,830
Dad?
82
00:06:32,982 --> 00:06:36,409
Late night? It's mom's
house. Mom's rules.
83
00:06:36,513 --> 00:06:37,866
Not anymore.
84
00:06:37,970 --> 00:06:40,603
Look, I came by to tell you
that I made arrangements.
85
00:06:40,707 --> 00:06:42,593
You're gonna spend
the rest of the month in L.A.
86
00:06:42,697 --> 00:06:44,374
With my sister. She's gonna look
after you.
87
00:06:44,478 --> 00:06:45,414
I can look after myself.
88
00:06:45,518 --> 00:06:46,870
Oh, clearly. Look, Lance.
89
00:06:46,974 --> 00:06:50,022
We're not gonna argue
about this, all right?
90
00:06:50,125 --> 00:06:51,883
It's a done deal. You should...
You should go pack.
91
00:06:51,987 --> 00:06:52,985
Mom's the one who needs help.
92
00:06:53,089 --> 00:06:55,237
You mother has
all the help she needs
93
00:06:55,340 --> 00:06:56,776
if she'll just take it.
94
00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,047
Yeah, that just lets you
off the hook, doesn't it?
95
00:07:00,152 --> 00:07:01,954
Sir?
96
00:07:02,058 --> 00:07:04,691
You can't wait
to get out of here?
97
00:07:04,795 --> 00:07:06,456
- I have to leave.
- Yeah.
98
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,181
I'm sure you have to go wherever
it is that you're going.
99
00:07:08,285 --> 00:07:11,505
- If it were anything
else, you know that.
100
00:07:11,610 --> 00:07:12,571
Yeah, I know.
101
00:07:12,674 --> 00:07:14,180
It-lt's work.
It's important.
102
00:07:21,608 --> 00:07:25,402
Nasa had a satellite fail
last night over the Utah desert,
103
00:07:25,507 --> 00:07:28,104
and, uh, the army sent in
a retrieval team.
104
00:07:28,209 --> 00:07:29,360
I just wanted to give you
a heads up
105
00:07:29,464 --> 00:07:32,428
before all
the phone calls start
106
00:07:32,532 --> 00:07:34,666
about the black helicopters
and little green men.
107
00:07:40,294 --> 00:07:43,413
I guess they're just
playing it safe, Ed.
108
00:07:43,517 --> 00:07:45,922
All right.
109
00:07:51,325 --> 00:07:52,831
Approaching Piedmont.
110
00:07:52,935 --> 00:07:54,894
Preparing to make
my initial surveillance pass.
111
00:07:54,998 --> 00:07:56,433
Go ahead.
112
00:07:56,537 --> 00:08:01,230
Commencing thermal imaging
and night vision recording.
113
00:08:04,832 --> 00:08:06,633
What the hell is that?
114
00:08:14,738 --> 00:08:17,595
Are those bodies?
115
00:08:17,699 --> 00:08:18,644
Holy Christ in heaven.
116
00:08:18,748 --> 00:08:22,097
I'm moving to northcom.
117
00:08:22,201 --> 00:08:24,835
Confine everyone to base
and lock it down.
118
00:08:24,940 --> 00:08:26,073
I want you to stay
here in D.C.
119
00:08:26,177 --> 00:08:28,746
In case Beeter needs managing.
120
00:08:28,850 --> 00:08:31,552
Yes, general.
121
00:08:31,657 --> 00:08:33,277
- How's the campaign going?
- Fundraising has slowed,
122
00:08:33,381 --> 00:08:37,783
and we're down 15 in the polls
as of last night.
123
00:08:45,355 --> 00:08:47,296
Ha, looking for their piece of the
action, you mean?
124
00:08:47,401 --> 00:08:48,248
Exactly, and of course,
125
00:08:48,352 --> 00:08:50,237
the environmentalists are howling,
126
00:08:50,342 --> 00:08:53,459
and the opposition
is scoring points. Ready?
127
00:09:01,339 --> 00:09:03,190
Flattery will get you
everywhere, won't it?
128
00:09:03,294 --> 00:09:05,166
Thank you, Pat.
129
00:09:07,416 --> 00:09:08,735
Mr. President, we have
a situation, I'm afraid.
130
00:09:08,839 --> 00:09:12,561
An infectious disease outbreak
of unknown origin
131
00:09:12,665 --> 00:09:14,100
in southern Utah.
132
00:09:14,204 --> 00:09:15,376
- How serious?
- Well, the area is remote,
133
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,828
and we think we have it under control,
134
00:09:18,933 --> 00:09:20,608
but I thought you might
like to know about...
135
00:09:20,712 --> 00:09:21,197
it right away.
136
00:09:21,301 --> 00:09:22,242
And I'll wanna be there.
137
00:09:22,346 --> 00:09:23,835
Respectfully, sir,
l think it would be better
138
00:09:23,940 --> 00:09:26,673
- if you stayed here in Washington.
- Daddy!
139
00:09:26,777 --> 00:09:29,859
Whoa! Hello!
What are you doing here?
140
00:09:29,963 --> 00:09:32,099
What are you doing here? Did
you escape?
141
00:09:32,203 --> 00:09:33,272
Hello. Hello, Chuck.
142
00:09:33,376 --> 00:09:35,938
Joanne. I'm sorry
to interrupt, honey.
143
00:09:36,042 --> 00:09:37,518
I was packing and this
little monster got...
144
00:09:37,622 --> 00:09:38,021
away from me.
145
00:09:38,126 --> 00:09:39,126
You got away from your mama.
146
00:09:39,230 --> 00:09:41,152
Campaign tour? Apparently
the American people
147
00:09:41,256 --> 00:09:43,142
would rather see my wife
than myself,
148
00:09:43,246 --> 00:09:45,654
although, I can't say
as I blame them too much.
149
00:09:45,758 --> 00:09:47,644
And as for you, young lady,
150
00:09:47,748 --> 00:09:49,670
you've got to go
back where you came from
151
00:09:49,774 --> 00:09:52,049
'cause daddy is working right
now, okay? Bye-Bye.
152
00:09:52,153 --> 00:09:52,633
Bye, daddy.
153
00:09:52,737 --> 00:09:56,043
Bye.
154
00:10:00,096 --> 00:10:03,439
So this infection is of
unknown origin, you say?
155
00:10:03,543 --> 00:10:05,879
We're still gathering
all the facts, sir.
156
00:10:05,984 --> 00:10:08,025
This isn't going to be
another Houston, is it?
157
00:10:08,129 --> 00:10:11,057
I think it's very unlikely.
158
00:10:11,161 --> 00:10:15,854
Anything you need, Chuck,
you let me know.
159
00:10:34,728 --> 00:10:37,016
- Yes?
- Dr. Tsi Chou?
160
00:10:40,618 --> 00:10:43,177
- What is it?
- There's been a Wildfire alert.
161
00:10:52,324 --> 00:10:54,055
You okay, sir?
162
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,568
Yeah. Light sensitivity.
163
00:10:56,672 --> 00:10:58,402
Uh, migraines.
164
00:11:04,339 --> 00:11:05,389
Adrian has a dentist
appointment on monday.
165
00:11:05,494 --> 00:11:09,400
Don't let him tell you
he's too sick to go.
166
00:11:09,504 --> 00:11:11,318
How long you think?
167
00:11:18,177 --> 00:11:19,305
If I call you and ask
you about your mother,
168
00:11:19,410 --> 00:11:23,133
Grab the kids, get on
a plane and go west.
169
00:11:23,237 --> 00:11:25,122
Get as much distance between you
170
00:11:25,227 --> 00:11:27,527
and the continental
United States as you can.
171
00:11:33,035 --> 00:11:34,577
I love you.
172
00:11:34,681 --> 00:11:36,673
I love you, too.
173
00:11:38,249 --> 00:11:39,838
Sir?
174
00:11:39,943 --> 00:11:42,268
Beeter has informed homeland
security and the president.
175
00:11:42,372 --> 00:11:44,258
The Wildfire team
should be assembled
176
00:11:44,362 --> 00:11:45,307
at Peterson Air Force Base
shortly after your arrival.
177
00:11:45,411 --> 00:11:48,796
Who's the designated "odd man"
on the Wildfire team?
178
00:11:48,901 --> 00:11:50,561
Army Major William Keene.
179
00:11:50,665 --> 00:11:52,813
Ah, the hero of the Houston event.
180
00:11:52,917 --> 00:11:53,862
Excellent researcher and a fine officer.
181
00:11:53,966 --> 00:11:56,865
He had a big dust-up
with Stone last year
182
00:11:56,969 --> 00:11:59,603
Over who first isolated the
CD-1 virus. Have they made up?
183
00:11:59,707 --> 00:12:01,592
They agreed to share credit,
184
00:12:01,697 --> 00:12:03,844
but there's no love lost
between them.
185
00:12:03,948 --> 00:12:07,291
Maybe that's something
we can build on. Sir.
186
00:12:28,002 --> 00:12:31,379
Major Keene?
187
00:12:38,132 --> 00:12:40,017
What's going on?
188
00:12:42,184 --> 00:12:44,177
Please, make yourself
comfortable, doctor.
189
00:12:44,281 --> 00:12:46,687
We'll be taking off shortly.
190
00:12:52,765 --> 00:12:54,496
Hello, Angela.
191
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,522
Jeremy. I, uh, asked
for something bigger,
192
00:12:56,626 --> 00:12:59,485
but this is the best they could
do on such short notice.
193
00:12:59,589 --> 00:13:01,025
I was in surgery.
194
00:13:01,129 --> 00:13:03,087
If it wasn't important,
we wouldn't have come calling.
195
00:13:03,191 --> 00:13:05,527
How bad is it?
196
00:13:05,632 --> 00:13:07,252
Preliminary reports suggest
a fatality rate of nearly 100%.
197
00:13:07,356 --> 00:13:13,163
You always bring me such good tidings.
198
00:13:13,267 --> 00:13:14,385
Please take your seats
and fasten your seatbelts.
199
00:13:14,490 --> 00:13:18,171
Flight attendants,
please cross-check the doors.
200
00:13:18,275 --> 00:13:20,197
I heard about you and Lisa.
201
00:13:20,300 --> 00:13:21,736
How's Lance feeling?
202
00:13:21,841 --> 00:13:24,107
He's a teenager,
so it's always hard to tell.
203
00:13:24,211 --> 00:13:25,788
Beneath the raging hormones,
204
00:13:25,892 --> 00:13:28,527
I'd--I'd have to say he's pretty angry.
205
00:13:28,631 --> 00:13:29,924
He's tolerating the separation.
206
00:13:30,028 --> 00:13:32,992
He's going to stay
with my sister in Los Angeles
207
00:13:33,096 --> 00:13:36,631
- for the rest of july.
- I almost called you when I heard,
208
00:13:36,735 --> 00:13:37,532
but I figured that your life
209
00:13:37,635 --> 00:13:40,683
was probably complicated enough.
210
00:13:40,788 --> 00:13:42,518
Yeah.
Yes.
211
00:13:46,653 --> 00:13:49,046
Mr. Nash, you have a phone call.
212
00:13:51,747 --> 00:13:54,982
Well, I guess I'd better take that then.
213
00:14:04,579 --> 00:14:07,436
- No names!
- God, you're paranoid.
214
00:14:07,540 --> 00:14:09,913
Like the N.S.A. isn't really
tracing all our calls.
215
00:14:10,017 --> 00:14:12,875
Wheezer, knock off the double
espressos and go back to bed.
216
00:14:12,980 --> 00:14:15,174
At the king.
One hour.
217
00:14:15,278 --> 00:14:19,854
Yeah, may have
a little trouble with that.
218
00:14:19,959 --> 00:14:21,110
Mancheck.
219
00:14:21,214 --> 00:14:23,645
Mancheck?
220
00:14:23,749 --> 00:14:27,058
Mr. Nash? Mr. Nash, I think
this is a terrible mistake.
221
00:14:27,163 --> 00:14:29,048
I'll check in again when I'm done.
222
00:14:29,152 --> 00:14:31,111
- It doesn't work like that.
- What doesn't-
223
00:14:31,215 --> 00:14:32,687
My addiction or my insurance?
224
00:14:32,791 --> 00:14:34,901
Well, both, really.
225
00:14:35,005 --> 00:14:36,514
Simply put, these thermal vents
on the ocean floor
226
00:14:36,617 --> 00:14:39,725
precipitate a fortune
in almost pure mineral deposits,
227
00:14:39,829 --> 00:14:45,518
such as manganese, critical
in the production of steel,
228
00:14:45,622 --> 00:14:47,508
and gold in higher concentrations
229
00:14:47,612 --> 00:14:49,879
- than most onshore mines.
- Wheezer, this had better be good.
230
00:14:49,984 --> 00:14:52,544
Until now, no one could
extract these deposits
231
00:14:52,648 --> 00:14:53,707
because of the crushing depths
at which they are found,
232
00:14:53,811 --> 00:14:56,550
but this new technology makes
it possible. Do you mind?
233
00:14:56,654 --> 00:14:59,784
Come on. Don't be a tease.
What's up?
234
00:14:59,889 --> 00:15:03,041
Not up. Down.
"Project Scoop."
235
00:15:03,146 --> 00:15:05,563
What's that?
A Baskin-Robbins' special?
236
00:15:05,667 --> 00:15:06,005
Funny.
237
00:15:06,108 --> 00:15:08,740
Check this out.
238
00:15:14,331 --> 00:15:16,774
It's like a war zone.
239
00:15:16,878 --> 00:15:19,251
This town is full of bodies.
240
00:15:19,355 --> 00:15:23,873
Over here! Over here!
Help me, man! Help me!
241
00:15:23,977 --> 00:15:26,088
You gotta help me.
242
00:15:26,192 --> 00:15:29,831
Oh! No! No! No!
243
00:15:29,936 --> 00:15:31,858
What the hell was that?
244
00:15:31,962 --> 00:15:33,920
Early this morning,
there was an exchange
245
00:15:34,024 --> 00:15:35,460
between Nasa
and the pentagon
246
00:15:35,563 --> 00:15:37,522
about a satellite
code-named Project Scoop
247
00:15:37,626 --> 00:15:39,061
that crashed in southern Utah.
248
00:15:39,165 --> 00:15:40,937
About an hour later, I picked that up-
249
00:15:41,041 --> 00:15:42,287
The last transmission
of a retrieval team
250
00:15:42,392 --> 00:15:45,815
that went into a nearby town, Piedmont,
251
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,778
- after the satellite--
- An army retrieval team.
252
00:15:48,882 --> 00:15:50,768
Hacking the feds is a felony, Wheezer.
253
00:15:50,872 --> 00:15:53,280
Homeland security
will be all over your ass.
254
00:15:53,385 --> 00:15:55,198
My bike needs new tires.
255
00:15:58,491 --> 00:16:00,292
Mancheck?
256
00:16:05,020 --> 00:16:08,814
No! Caper One, do you copy?
Do you copy, Caper One?
257
00:16:08,918 --> 00:16:11,374
Once again, Caper One,
do you copy? Come in.
258
00:16:11,478 --> 00:16:13,038
Get general Mancheck.
259
00:16:13,143 --> 00:16:17,332
Get Mancheck now.
260
00:16:17,436 --> 00:16:19,057
Jack Nash,
my favorite muckraker.
261
00:16:19,161 --> 00:16:22,855
Whose career
are you ruining today?
262
00:16:22,959 --> 00:16:24,536
Oh, you know me.
263
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,824
My hit list of the venal
and the morally corrupt
264
00:16:26,928 --> 00:16:28,625
just keeps on growing.
I can't keep pace.
265
00:16:28,729 --> 00:16:30,164
Hey, is Jeremy there?
266
00:16:30,269 --> 00:16:32,678
Well, for such a superb
investigative journalist,
267
00:16:32,781 --> 00:16:34,075
You are sadly ignorant.
268
00:16:34,179 --> 00:16:35,082
The good doctor and I split.
269
00:16:35,187 --> 00:16:37,594
He has a love nest somewhere,
270
00:16:37,698 --> 00:16:41,007
probably on campus, close
to the sororities he prefers.
271
00:16:41,111 --> 00:16:42,855
I'm-I'm sorry to hear
that, Lisa, truly.
272
00:16:42,959 --> 00:16:45,959
But do you have a number for
him? This is very important.
273
00:16:46,064 --> 00:16:47,724
It wouldn't do you any good.
274
00:16:47,828 --> 00:16:49,750
Saint Jeremy's off
on assignment for the army.
275
00:16:49,855 --> 00:16:52,713
Very hush-hush. They picked
him up early this morning.
276
00:16:52,817 --> 00:16:54,307
Was this in regards
to a Project Scoop?
277
00:16:54,411 --> 00:16:58,530
Don't know. Don't care.
278
00:16:58,634 --> 00:16:59,579
Good afternoon, everyone.
279
00:16:59,684 --> 00:17:01,682
I'm general George Mancheck,
280
00:17:01,786 --> 00:17:03,069
head of the U.S. Army
bio-defense department.
281
00:17:03,173 --> 00:17:04,817
Uh, you are now being
distributed e-papers.
282
00:17:04,921 --> 00:17:06,775
They contain continuously
updated information
283
00:17:06,879 --> 00:17:08,880
about Wildfire,
and what we currently know
284
00:17:08,984 --> 00:17:12,712
about the event,
which is very little.
285
00:17:12,816 --> 00:17:14,325
Since the failed biological
attack in Houston last year
286
00:17:14,429 --> 00:17:19,691
in which major Keene here
played an important part,
287
00:17:19,795 --> 00:17:22,655
our vulnerability to terrorist
action, especially bioterrorism,
288
00:17:22,759 --> 00:17:24,645
has been a subject
of intense discussion.
289
00:17:24,749 --> 00:17:26,932
You, the Wildfire response team
and laboratory,
290
00:17:27,036 --> 00:17:30,272
are the result of that discussion.
291
00:17:30,376 --> 00:17:31,322
You volunteered
in the spirit of patriotism
292
00:17:31,426 --> 00:17:34,586
for an assignment
that was vague at the time.
293
00:17:34,690 --> 00:17:36,125
Undoubtedly, you're wondering
294
00:17:36,230 --> 00:17:38,377
what the hell you've
got yourselves into.
295
00:17:38,481 --> 00:17:41,340
Dr. Stone. Right. Well, obviously
some of you have worked together.
296
00:17:41,444 --> 00:17:43,817
Certainly everyone here
has read each others' work-
297
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:45,700
At least heard of one another.
298
00:17:45,804 --> 00:17:47,381
I'm Dr. Jeremy Stone,
299
00:17:47,485 --> 00:17:49,858
head of the Bloomsburg facility
at Johns Hopkins
300
00:17:49,962 --> 00:17:51,164
and the chief consultant for, and...
301
00:17:51,268 --> 00:17:52,679
designer of, the Wildfire
lab and project.
302
00:17:52,783 --> 00:17:54,585
Where is the laboratory?
303
00:17:54,689 --> 00:17:57,773
For security reasons,
we cannot disclose its location.
304
00:17:57,877 --> 00:18:00,250
We're not allowed to know
where we'll be working?
305
00:18:00,354 --> 00:18:02,240
No, but I can assure you that, uh,
306
00:18:02,344 --> 00:18:05,203
we'll be in full and constant
contact with the outside.
307
00:18:05,307 --> 00:18:06,967
Dr. Noyce?
308
00:18:07,071 --> 00:18:08,993
Uh, Dr. Angela Noyce,
surgeon, ex-biologist
309
00:18:09,098 --> 00:18:12,407
and I specialize in tropical
and exotic diseases.
310
00:18:12,511 --> 00:18:13,757
Dr. Charlene Barton,
pathologist,
311
00:18:13,861 --> 00:18:15,380
Formerly with the C.D.C.,
312
00:18:15,484 --> 00:18:17,584
now with the San Francisco
health department.
313
00:18:17,689 --> 00:18:18,982
Major Bill Keene, M.D.,
314
00:18:19,086 --> 00:18:20,369
Virologist from the Army
medial research institute
315
00:18:20,473 --> 00:18:23,471
of infectious diseases,
Fort Detrick, Maryland.
316
00:18:26,848 --> 00:18:29,966
Uh, Dr. Tsi Chou,
microbiologist.
317
00:18:30,071 --> 00:18:31,506
So modest.
318
00:18:31,610 --> 00:18:34,552
About ten years ago, Dr. Chou
was one of the premier designers
319
00:18:34,656 --> 00:18:37,929
of biological weapons
for the Chinese government.
320
00:18:38,033 --> 00:18:40,511
But then I saw the light of Jesus,
321
00:18:40,615 --> 00:18:42,881
and now I serve as a consultant
on bioterrorism
322
00:18:42,986 --> 00:18:45,133
for a wide range
of U.S. corporations.
323
00:18:45,237 --> 00:18:47,559
Out of the ashes, into the fire.
324
00:18:50,711 --> 00:18:52,667
Last night-
uh, please.
325
00:18:52,772 --> 00:18:56,044
Last night, a Nasa satellite lost orbit
326
00:18:56,149 --> 00:18:59,040
and came down in a remote part
of southern Utah.
327
00:19:02,192 --> 00:19:03,172
When a retrieval team arrived,
328
00:19:03,276 --> 00:19:05,724
the satellite had been moved,
329
00:19:05,828 --> 00:19:09,551
we believe by civilians, into
the nearby town of Piedmont.
330
00:19:09,656 --> 00:19:12,028
No signs yet of any life.
331
00:19:12,132 --> 00:19:14,349
Except for this joker
staring at us from his pickup.
332
00:19:16,375 --> 00:19:18,818
We're rounding the corner--
333
00:19:18,923 --> 00:19:20,878
Whoa, hold on.
334
00:19:22,903 --> 00:19:25,310
This town is full of bodies.
335
00:19:25,414 --> 00:19:26,585
- It's like a war zone.
- Over here! Over here!
336
00:19:26,689 --> 00:19:30,037
Help me! Help me, man.
You gotta help me!
337
00:19:30,142 --> 00:19:31,683
Aah! Aah!
338
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,311
Help! No! No!
339
00:19:45,499 --> 00:19:47,408
The team's chemical sensors
detected nothing unusual,
340
00:19:47,513 --> 00:19:50,336
so we suspect a biological agent
341
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:51,875
now code-named "Andromeda."
342
00:19:51,979 --> 00:19:55,063
Whatever Andromeda is, it killed
those two soldiers so quickly,
343
00:19:55,167 --> 00:19:58,215
they didn't even have time
to jump out of their humvee.
344
00:19:58,319 --> 00:20:01,141
Two hours later, this infrared recording
345
00:20:01,245 --> 00:20:03,356
was made by a pilotless drone
346
00:20:03,460 --> 00:20:06,366
flying east to west
at an altitude of 500 feet.
347
00:20:06,470 --> 00:20:09,054
The, um, bright spots indicating
thermal activity are corpses.
348
00:20:11,839 --> 00:20:15,324
And, uh, this is another pass
immediately afterwards-
349
00:20:15,428 --> 00:20:16,566
Same parameters.
350
00:20:20,618 --> 00:20:23,737
What brought that satellite
out of orbit in the first place?
351
00:20:23,841 --> 00:20:25,905
Uh, possibly contact with a meteor
352
00:20:26,009 --> 00:20:27,669
or unknown space debris.
353
00:20:27,774 --> 00:20:31,083
Uh, there was also one of two new
North Korean satellites in the area.
354
00:20:31,187 --> 00:20:32,967
What they were doing there,
of course, we have no idea.
355
00:20:33,071 --> 00:20:34,631
Well, being sinister
and inscrutable, no doubt.
356
00:20:34,736 --> 00:20:38,784
If their purpose is benign,
why keep it a secret?
357
00:20:38,888 --> 00:20:41,663
One could say the same thing
about this operation, general.
358
00:20:41,768 --> 00:20:42,789
What exactly was Nasa
doing with that satellite?
359
00:20:42,893 --> 00:20:45,940
And--and why was an Army
retrieval vehicle sent in
360
00:20:46,045 --> 00:20:47,705
after it had failed?
361
00:20:47,809 --> 00:20:50,443
Nasa doesn't have a pot
to piss in these days.
362
00:20:50,548 --> 00:20:51,532
All flights are multipurpose.
363
00:20:51,636 --> 00:20:54,271
We're going to need
to trust each other, doctor.
364
00:20:54,375 --> 00:20:55,396
As long as we all act in good faith,
365
00:20:55,500 --> 00:20:58,736
I don't have a problem there.
General?
366
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,732
Can we play both
recordings simultaneously?
367
00:21:10,287 --> 00:21:12,280
That body by the recovery vehicle
368
00:21:12,384 --> 00:21:14,198
has moved between passes.
369
00:21:17,349 --> 00:21:19,517
- Again. Overlay.
- Yes, sir.
370
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,688
Freeze it. Overlay.
371
00:21:26,792 --> 00:21:28,522
Switch back.
372
00:21:30,999 --> 00:21:32,433
Son of a bitch.
373
00:21:33,558 --> 00:21:37,077
Someone's alive down there.
374
00:21:40,904 --> 00:21:42,861
Listen, Bill.
375
00:21:42,965 --> 00:21:44,022
Whatever differences
we've had in the past,
376
00:21:44,127 --> 00:21:45,729
I hope we can put 'em
aside for the duration.
377
00:21:45,833 --> 00:21:49,734
I wouldn't miss this
for the world, Jeremy.
378
00:21:49,839 --> 00:21:51,173
Somebody has to keep
an eye on you.
379
00:21:51,278 --> 00:21:56,179
What's up with you and Mancheck?
380
00:21:56,283 --> 00:21:57,944
Mancheck?
381
00:21:58,048 --> 00:21:59,745
Well, during operation Desert Storm,
382
00:21:59,849 --> 00:22:02,446
I wanted to examine certain
lraqi munitions bunkers
383
00:22:02,550 --> 00:22:05,823
for possible biological agents,
but he blew them up first.
384
00:22:05,927 --> 00:22:06,900
Why the big hurry?
385
00:22:07,004 --> 00:22:09,912
Maybe there was something
he didn't want me to find.
386
00:22:10,016 --> 00:22:11,901
Oh, yeah, like the Loch Ness monster,
387
00:22:12,006 --> 00:22:13,289
or maybe there was proof of Bigfoot.
388
00:22:13,394 --> 00:22:14,864
Look, a lot of people
wondered how Saddam
389
00:22:14,968 --> 00:22:16,232
acquired his bioweapons
capability in the first place.
390
00:22:16,337 --> 00:22:20,492
Now some people have suggested
that certain governments,
391
00:22:20,597 --> 00:22:23,240
who were friendly at the time
and eager for data
392
00:22:23,345 --> 00:22:25,670
on the battlefield use of
weaponized biological agents,
393
00:22:25,775 --> 00:22:27,435
might have sold Saddam what he wanted
394
00:22:27,539 --> 00:22:28,397
- when he was fighting Iran.
395
00:22:28,502 --> 00:22:29,948
That's just a bunch of
paranoid left-wing B.S.
396
00:22:30,051 --> 00:22:32,958
- It was never proven, Jeremy.
- Just because you're paranoid, Bill,
397
00:22:33,062 --> 00:22:35,384
doesn't mean they ain't out to get you.
398
00:22:52,494 --> 00:22:54,225
Mancheck.
399
00:22:54,328 --> 00:22:56,475
A heads-up from our friend
at the N.S.A.
400
00:22:56,580 --> 00:22:58,989
Who's been running security
checks on the Wildfire team.
401
00:22:59,093 --> 00:23:01,548
An hour ago they picked
up a conversation
402
00:23:01,652 --> 00:23:03,538
between Lisa Stone and Jack Nash.
403
00:23:03,642 --> 00:23:06,642
How the hell did Jack
Nash stumble on this?
404
00:23:06,747 --> 00:23:09,344
He asked about Project Scoop.
405
00:23:09,449 --> 00:23:11,258
Jeez. Who's his source?
406
00:23:11,362 --> 00:23:14,486
We're working on it.
407
00:23:14,590 --> 00:23:16,098
Nash and Stone were
an unbelievable pain in the ass
408
00:23:16,202 --> 00:23:17,177
over Kuwait.
409
00:23:17,282 --> 00:23:20,825
How much does he know
about Project Scoop?
410
00:23:20,930 --> 00:23:23,335
Well, as far as we
can tell, nothing yet.
411
00:23:25,811 --> 00:23:28,563
Don't do anything about Nash right now,
412
00:23:28,668 --> 00:23:30,115
except monitor him closely
413
00:23:30,219 --> 00:23:33,775
and identify his source.
414
00:23:38,051 --> 00:23:41,951
What's the escort for? Paparazzi?
415
00:23:42,055 --> 00:23:44,913
A fail-safe plan to prevent
a break in quarantine.
416
00:23:45,018 --> 00:23:46,903
The chopper will drop us off
417
00:23:47,007 --> 00:23:48,290
and hover at 500 feet
until we recall it.
418
00:23:48,394 --> 00:23:51,856
It will not land unless
they get our signal.
419
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,820
Now if we don't come back,
they're to immediately report
420
00:23:54,924 --> 00:23:56,075
back to base for decontamination.
421
00:23:56,179 --> 00:23:59,510
And if the pilot fails to respond?
422
00:23:59,615 --> 00:24:02,698
Well, there is a fail-safe
for the fail-safe.
423
00:24:02,803 --> 00:24:04,546
It's not too late to reconsider.
424
00:24:04,651 --> 00:24:06,940
Oh, this is just starting to get good.
425
00:24:07,044 --> 00:24:10,919
Approaching target, sir.
426
00:24:15,114 --> 00:24:17,449
We have smoke rising from the town, sir.
427
00:24:26,595 --> 00:24:28,184
Whatever Andromeda is,
428
00:24:28,288 --> 00:24:30,647
it still hasn't killed the birds.
429
00:24:33,573 --> 00:24:34,932
Best not to take any chances.
430
00:24:35,037 --> 00:24:38,351
Captain, drop the chlorazine.
431
00:24:38,455 --> 00:24:40,102
Roger that.
432
00:25:11,170 --> 00:25:14,737
Hmm, the Audubon society's
not gonna like that.
433
00:25:14,842 --> 00:25:16,764
Lieutenant, when ready, lower the team
434
00:25:16,868 --> 00:25:18,528
into the center of town
435
00:25:18,632 --> 00:25:19,880
and take up your preassigned position.
436
00:25:19,983 --> 00:25:21,455
Roger that.
437
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,968
What are the ultimate
environmental consequences
438
00:25:24,072 --> 00:25:25,769
of mining these deep-sea thermal vents?
439
00:25:25,873 --> 00:25:27,166
We don't know,
440
00:25:27,270 --> 00:25:29,418
but one thing we know for
sure is that Enburtel,
441
00:25:29,522 --> 00:25:32,973
one of president Scott's largest
corporate campaign contributors,
442
00:25:33,077 --> 00:25:35,188
will make a fortune from it.
443
00:25:35,292 --> 00:25:36,813
And once again, the president and his
corporate masters...
444
00:25:36,917 --> 00:25:37,270
Hey, gorgeous.
445
00:25:37,354 --> 00:25:38,305
...are ignoring science,
defying international treaties
446
00:25:38,409 --> 00:25:41,716
- and acting unilaterally.
- Charlie H., long time, no see.
447
00:25:41,820 --> 00:25:45,129
- Sorry, Charlie, he just barged in.
- That's all right. Just call security.
448
00:25:45,234 --> 00:25:47,606
Whoa, Charles,
I'm not feeling the love here.
449
00:25:47,710 --> 00:25:49,820
You're in rehab.
That was our deal.
450
00:25:49,925 --> 00:25:51,763
30 days, then you might
get your job back.
451
00:25:51,867 --> 00:25:52,784
I'm clean. I'm sober.
452
00:25:52,887 --> 00:25:54,773
Look at me, I'm even tan,
and I am-
453
00:25:54,877 --> 00:25:57,700
- I've got a lead on something-
- 30 days rehab.
454
00:25:57,804 --> 00:25:58,736
- That was the deal.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
455
00:25:58,840 --> 00:25:59,226
Come on, Charlie.
456
00:25:59,322 --> 00:26:01,563
You're too good a producer
to let your personal feelings
457
00:26:01,667 --> 00:26:04,454
- get in the way of a great story.
- How great?
458
00:26:04,558 --> 00:26:07,867
Last night, Nasa satellite
crashes in southern Utah.
459
00:26:07,971 --> 00:26:09,857
This is news?
We call that gravity.
460
00:26:09,961 --> 00:26:12,369
Nasa claims it was a weather
satellite. I know that's a lie.
461
00:26:12,473 --> 00:26:13,513
And why was an Army retrieval team
462
00:26:13,617 --> 00:26:16,385
sent to pick up said Nasa bird,
463
00:26:16,489 --> 00:26:18,981
and why was that team from
the department of bio-defense?
464
00:26:19,085 --> 00:26:22,500
If this is another one
of your paranoid fantasies,
465
00:26:22,604 --> 00:26:25,876
- I swear to--
- The whole unit died horribly.
466
00:26:25,981 --> 00:26:27,453
Wait a minute.
Wait. Wait.
467
00:26:27,556 --> 00:26:28,767
Did...
468
00:26:28,871 --> 00:26:31,243
you know this for a fact?
469
00:26:31,347 --> 00:26:33,080
- I saw the visuals myself.
- You got tape?
470
00:26:33,185 --> 00:26:34,620
I can get tape.
471
00:26:34,724 --> 00:26:36,766
Right. Meanwhile, a
couple of hours later,
472
00:26:36,870 --> 00:26:38,447
one of our leading epidemiologists
473
00:26:38,551 --> 00:26:41,411
is picked up by the Army
and whisked away.
474
00:26:41,514 --> 00:26:43,400
And?
475
00:26:43,504 --> 00:26:46,138
And the Army general
in charge is Mancheck.
476
00:26:46,242 --> 00:26:48,352
- Mancheck. See?
- I knew it. I knew it.
477
00:26:48,456 --> 00:26:51,091
You-You just won't let
that go, will you?
478
00:26:51,195 --> 00:26:53,080
I mean, you're like frickin' Ahab
479
00:26:53,185 --> 00:26:54,468
- and the white whale with that guy.
480
00:26:54,573 --> 00:26:56,043
I swear to god, this
just fell in my lap.
481
00:26:56,147 --> 00:26:57,411
All I need is a week
to run this down and a crew.
482
00:26:57,516 --> 00:27:01,185
A week and a crew -
that's all I'm asking for.
483
00:27:01,289 --> 00:27:05,274
Three days, then you get
your ass back in Betty Ford,
484
00:27:05,378 --> 00:27:07,263
or wherever you were.
485
00:27:07,368 --> 00:27:09,550
- This man loves me.
- Don't kid yourself.
486
00:27:09,655 --> 00:27:12,511
Loves me!
487
00:27:40,614 --> 00:27:42,240
External symptoms -
488
00:27:42,344 --> 00:27:45,795
Pronounced swelling of all
surface veins and capillaries,
489
00:27:45,899 --> 00:27:49,361
jaundice-like yellowing of his eyes.
490
00:27:49,465 --> 00:27:51,732
A few of them are
clutching their chests.
491
00:27:51,836 --> 00:27:53,413
This could be coronary.
492
00:27:53,518 --> 00:27:55,334
Not coronary.
Look at his face.
493
00:27:55,438 --> 00:27:56,790
Asphyxiation, maybe.
494
00:27:56,894 --> 00:27:59,042
No, if a person can't breathe,
495
00:27:59,146 --> 00:28:02,004
they try to loosen the clothing
around their neck and chest.
496
00:28:02,109 --> 00:28:04,303
Look at that guy over there.
497
00:28:04,407 --> 00:28:06,957
He has his shirt buttoned
all the way to the top.
498
00:28:07,061 --> 00:28:09,017
This isn't asphyxiation or heart attack.
499
00:28:11,493 --> 00:28:13,757
Well, the survivor we saw
500
00:28:13,862 --> 00:28:15,545
was over near the retrieval vehicle.
501
00:28:36,932 --> 00:28:37,911
Dr. Noyce.
502
00:28:38,015 --> 00:28:40,843
Take a look.
503
00:28:42,786 --> 00:28:44,966
Look at the way he fell
504
00:28:45,070 --> 00:28:46,837
and broke his nose
on the steering wheel.
505
00:28:49,763 --> 00:28:51,270
There's no blood.
506
00:28:51,375 --> 00:28:53,332
A wound like that
should bleed profusely.
507
00:28:53,436 --> 00:28:55,180
Not one of the corpses we've seen,
508
00:28:55,284 --> 00:28:57,193
including the bird food
back there, were bleeders.
509
00:29:08,224 --> 00:29:10,892
- What is it?
- I thought I heard something.
510
00:29:10,996 --> 00:29:13,107
Don't get sketchy on us, doc.
511
00:29:13,211 --> 00:29:16,709
We have a survivor
on tape, remember?
512
00:29:16,813 --> 00:29:19,446
Major, there's a G.P.S. tracking
device in the shotgun seat.
513
00:29:19,551 --> 00:29:22,599
It should still be locked
in on the satellite.
514
00:29:22,702 --> 00:29:24,849
Sorry, boy, I gotta get in there.
515
00:29:24,954 --> 00:29:27,290
Bill, have a little respect.
516
00:29:27,394 --> 00:29:30,511
How about we do our job
and get out of here?
517
00:29:35,238 --> 00:29:37,039
Yeah, it's working.
518
00:29:43,307 --> 00:29:45,786
Looks like we're close.
519
00:29:45,890 --> 00:29:48,971
Pull over here.
520
00:30:46,116 --> 00:30:48,178
There it is.
521
00:30:52,869 --> 00:30:57,634
Unbelievable.
They opened it.
522
00:31:02,361 --> 00:31:05,029
Angela, can you check his lividity?
523
00:31:05,133 --> 00:31:09,270
Okay.
524
00:31:09,375 --> 00:31:10,883
Give me a hand, Bill.
525
00:31:10,987 --> 00:31:14,293
One, two, three.
526
00:31:17,895 --> 00:31:19,921
Easy, easy.
527
00:31:21,235 --> 00:31:22,861
Dead for hours-
528
00:31:22,965 --> 00:31:25,705
Distended arteries, no bruising.
529
00:31:25,808 --> 00:31:28,476
Look at an artery, would you?
Check his radial.
530
00:31:50,312 --> 00:31:51,293
Clotted solid.
531
00:31:51,397 --> 00:31:54,899
What does that?
532
00:32:18,453 --> 00:32:20,860
Is there a problem, officer?
533
00:32:20,964 --> 00:32:24,081
License and registration, please.
534
00:32:29,259 --> 00:32:30,765
Nice bike.
535
00:32:30,869 --> 00:32:35,754
It's a 1951 FL Panhead.
I did the restoration myself.
536
00:32:35,858 --> 00:32:38,456
- Beautiful.
- Tank shift, foot clutch-
537
00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:42,141
You don't see those anymore.
538
00:32:42,245 --> 00:32:44,272
You are Jonathan Scott?
539
00:32:44,376 --> 00:32:47,269
Yes, sir. I-l just
gave it new tires.
540
00:33:22,126 --> 00:33:24,119
- Are you ready?
- Yes.
541
00:33:24,223 --> 00:33:25,169
- Is your husband watching?
- Yes.
542
00:33:25,273 --> 00:33:28,171
- And the family?
- I hope so.
543
00:33:28,276 --> 00:33:30,909
Would you like to say hello
to them out there?
544
00:33:31,013 --> 00:33:32,294
Um...
545
00:34:11,690 --> 00:34:13,280
I've seen enough.
546
00:34:13,384 --> 00:34:15,673
We should nuke this place
and be done with it.
547
00:34:15,776 --> 00:34:19,310
You're not serious. Under the
Wildfire protocols, directive 7-12,
548
00:34:19,415 --> 00:34:20,775
a limited nuclear strike
is a contingency.
549
00:34:20,879 --> 00:34:24,677
- I agree with Bill.
- Ditto. Why mess around?
550
00:34:24,781 --> 00:34:27,604
Because it's premature until
we know what we're dealing with.
551
00:34:27,709 --> 00:34:29,543
You're all forgetting that we have a
survivor on tape.
552
00:34:29,646 --> 00:34:30,342
Yeah, nine hours ago.
553
00:34:30,446 --> 00:34:32,332
Maybe they're dead now
554
00:34:32,436 --> 00:34:34,394
having drowned themselves
or burned themselves
555
00:34:34,499 --> 00:34:36,454
or cut their own freakin' heads off.
556
00:35:04,819 --> 00:35:07,037
Hi. You're okay. Shh.
557
00:35:07,141 --> 00:35:09,756
Shh. It's okay.
Hi.
558
00:35:09,860 --> 00:35:14,430
She must be hungry.
559
00:35:14,534 --> 00:35:16,231
There's some baby formula here.
560
00:35:16,335 --> 00:35:18,256
No, no. Don't-don't-
Don't feed her.
561
00:35:18,361 --> 00:35:21,220
Don't-don't do anything
until we get her out of here.
562
00:35:21,324 --> 00:35:22,292
Maybe feeding's part
of the disease process,
563
00:35:22,396 --> 00:35:25,047
or there was something
protective in her diet.
564
00:35:25,151 --> 00:35:27,036
We can't take the chance.
565
00:35:27,140 --> 00:35:29,513
We have to get her
into a lab right away.
566
00:35:29,617 --> 00:35:32,775
It's too bad she can't tell us
what happened.
567
00:35:32,879 --> 00:35:33,848
Maybe she can.
568
00:35:43,540 --> 00:35:44,407
You leave that baby here!
569
00:35:44,511 --> 00:35:48,460
You got-got no right to-
570
00:35:48,564 --> 00:35:51,194
Ow!
571
00:35:53,220 --> 00:35:56,078
You all right?
572
00:35:56,182 --> 00:35:59,716
Don't-don't touch me.
Just worried about your suit.
573
00:35:59,820 --> 00:36:03,576
Let's l-stat him and get out of here.
574
00:36:32,618 --> 00:36:36,186
We're coming into the lab
with two survivors-
575
00:36:36,290 --> 00:36:37,667
An adult male and an infant female.
576
00:36:37,771 --> 00:36:41,102
I will recommend to the president
577
00:36:41,207 --> 00:36:42,310
that he order a limited nuclear
strike.
578
00:36:42,414 --> 00:36:42,940
Negative. Negative.
579
00:36:43,044 --> 00:36:44,929
We need to figure out
580
00:36:45,033 --> 00:36:47,198
what the hell we're dealing
with first.
581
00:36:47,302 --> 00:36:47,892
I disagree.
582
00:36:47,997 --> 00:36:49,882
What we're dealing with
induces death,
583
00:36:49,986 --> 00:36:51,044
suicide or homicidal behavior
within minutes.
584
00:36:51,148 --> 00:36:54,646
You have as much time
as the president gives you,
585
00:36:54,750 --> 00:36:56,706
and that's it.
586
00:37:19,443 --> 00:37:21,174
What about our survivors?
587
00:37:21,279 --> 00:37:22,224
They'll be taken
along with the satellite
588
00:37:22,328 --> 00:37:25,001
into the lab
through a separate entrance.
589
00:37:25,105 --> 00:37:26,726
Dr. Chou and Dr. Barton
will be waiting for us.
590
00:37:26,830 --> 00:37:30,666
We have no choice now, Chuck.
This thing is scary.
591
00:37:30,770 --> 00:37:32,881
Our safest option
is the nuke the site,
592
00:37:32,985 --> 00:37:35,132
and only the president
can authorize a nuclear.
593
00:37:35,235 --> 00:37:37,870
You promised us there would be
no problems with Project Scoop.
594
00:37:37,974 --> 00:37:40,085
You know as well I as I do
there are no guarantees
595
00:37:40,189 --> 00:37:42,405
on something like this, so
calm down and let me handle it.
596
00:37:48,033 --> 00:37:50,926
Pretty impressive
security measures here.
597
00:37:51,031 --> 00:37:51,715
Better than they look.
598
00:37:51,819 --> 00:37:54,942
Killer pine trees?
599
00:37:55,047 --> 00:37:57,089
We've been under
continuous observation
600
00:37:57,193 --> 00:37:58,544
by satellite and ground sensors
601
00:37:58,649 --> 00:38:00,879
since the moment
the helicopter dropped us off.
602
00:38:00,984 --> 00:38:03,984
There's at least one armed
predator overhead at all times.
603
00:38:04,088 --> 00:38:07,169
If we were a menace,
we'd be dead by now.
604
00:38:22,561 --> 00:38:24,659
Dr. Stone, long time, no see.
605
00:38:24,763 --> 00:38:26,496
Same to you, George.
How's your daughter?
606
00:38:26,601 --> 00:38:28,185
13 going on 35.
Hello, Dr. Stone.
607
00:38:28,289 --> 00:38:31,340
Access approved.
608
00:38:51,293 --> 00:38:53,249
Grouped around a central utility core,
609
00:38:53,353 --> 00:38:55,987
at the bottom of which
is our power source.
610
00:38:56,092 --> 00:38:58,463
A small water-cooled nuclear reactor.
611
00:38:58,567 --> 00:39:01,129
And the pool hours are...
612
00:39:01,233 --> 00:39:04,280
hey, at 5,000 to 8,000 rem,
even a small exposure
613
00:39:04,385 --> 00:39:06,794
would result in disorientation
or coma within minutes,
614
00:39:06,898 --> 00:39:08,144
but, hey, knock yourself out.
615
00:39:08,248 --> 00:39:11,710
Now the top two levels
616
00:39:11,814 --> 00:39:13,736
are for service and maintenance crew.
617
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:15,010
They live on-site
in 3-month rotational cycles
618
00:39:15,115 --> 00:39:18,049
under the highest levels
of security clearance.
619
00:39:18,153 --> 00:39:19,814
The bottom three levels
620
00:39:19,918 --> 00:39:22,552
are the actual heart of the facility-
621
00:39:22,657 --> 00:39:23,790
The laboratory itself
622
00:39:23,894 --> 00:39:26,946
and culture equipment.
623
00:39:28,889 --> 00:39:33,583
Decontamination and containment
are second to none.
624
00:39:33,687 --> 00:39:35,500
It's safe to remove your helmets.
625
00:39:46,448 --> 00:39:48,216
Oral antibiotics to kill off any flora
626
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:52,526
that we might be carrying internally.
627
00:39:57,029 --> 00:39:58,797
Now decontaminating the body externally
628
00:39:58,901 --> 00:40:00,787
is a bit more dramatic.
629
00:40:00,890 --> 00:40:01,949
You're gonna have follow
directions closely.
630
00:40:02,053 --> 00:40:04,958
Taking a shortcut could
prove to be fatal.
631
00:40:05,063 --> 00:40:06,414
Once you're ready,
632
00:40:06,518 --> 00:40:10,987
you'll establish your identity
using a retinal scan.
633
00:41:36,308 --> 00:41:38,123
That was some spa.
634
00:41:38,227 --> 00:41:40,291
We do have our amenities.
635
00:41:40,395 --> 00:41:42,804
Now we each have our own
private sleeping quarters,
636
00:41:42,908 --> 00:41:45,243
though we might not see much of them.
637
00:41:45,347 --> 00:41:48,170
The dining area and gymnasium,
which never close.
638
00:41:48,275 --> 00:41:50,908
Now the badges you're wearing
provide voice-controlled access
639
00:41:51,012 --> 00:41:53,385
to the computer system
and the lab equipment.
640
00:41:53,489 --> 00:41:55,149
They also monitor any radiation
641
00:41:55,254 --> 00:41:57,625
or possible contamination
you might face
642
00:41:57,729 --> 00:42:00,588
and provide inter-lab
communication and recording.
643
00:42:00,692 --> 00:42:02,422
You need to wear them at all times.
644
00:42:03,998 --> 00:42:06,405
As painstaking as the entrance is,
645
00:42:06,509 --> 00:42:08,918
I promise you,
it's much harder to get out.
646
00:42:09,023 --> 00:42:10,907
Each level is self-sealing,
and egress
647
00:42:11,011 --> 00:42:13,871
is only through authorization
from the level above.
648
00:42:13,975 --> 00:42:15,410
Communication with the outside
649
00:42:15,514 --> 00:42:17,556
is via secure fiber-optic
phone lines and high-speed LAN.
650
00:42:17,661 --> 00:42:19,463
We can contact our families?
651
00:42:19,566 --> 00:42:21,488
Yes, but communication
is only one-way.
652
00:42:21,592 --> 00:42:22,805
Any personal urgent calls
coming into the faculty
653
00:42:22,909 --> 00:42:24,659
are rerouted directly
through the comm center.
654
00:42:24,763 --> 00:42:28,242
Of course, your privacy
will be respected,
655
00:42:28,346 --> 00:42:30,304
but the priority here
must remain the security.
656
00:42:30,409 --> 00:42:32,294
There should be no discussion whatsoever
657
00:42:32,398 --> 00:42:35,257
- about what we're working on.
- What happens in the event
658
00:42:35,361 --> 00:42:37,021
of an accidental contamination?
659
00:42:37,126 --> 00:42:38,906
Hatch and seal, like a submarine.
660
00:42:39,010 --> 00:42:40,476
In the event
of an overwhelming breach,
661
00:42:40,581 --> 00:42:44,070
the lab is built atop a nuclear device.
662
00:42:48,573 --> 00:42:50,790
I've just armed that system.
663
00:42:50,895 --> 00:42:52,105
Once it's activated,
664
00:42:52,210 --> 00:42:55,032
there's a 15-minute countdown
to detonation.
665
00:42:55,136 --> 00:42:57,958
You gotta be shittin' me.
I'm sure the chances of an accident
666
00:42:58,062 --> 00:43:01,371
in such a beautifully designed facility
are too small to be significant,
667
00:43:01,476 --> 00:43:02,947
but if there should be a mistake...
668
00:43:03,051 --> 00:43:04,002
there is a fail-safe plan.
669
00:43:04,107 --> 00:43:07,188
Dr. Keene is our odd man.
670
00:43:07,293 --> 00:43:08,463
- Please insert your card.
- Odd man?
671
00:43:08,567 --> 00:43:12,886
Place your thumb upon the panel.
672
00:43:14,913 --> 00:43:16,727
To abort the self-destruct sequence,
673
00:43:16,831 --> 00:43:18,931
Bill I.D. s himself
via thumbprint and his card.
674
00:43:19,035 --> 00:43:21,596
There's a panel
like this on every level.
675
00:43:21,701 --> 00:43:22,257
- Why Bill?
676
00:43:22,361 --> 00:43:24,690
The army ran an extensive
battery of tests,
677
00:43:24,794 --> 00:43:27,936
and determined that unmarried
males were more likely
678
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:29,061
to make the right choice
during a crisis.
679
00:43:29,166 --> 00:43:32,177
In our particular case,
the right decision
680
00:43:32,282 --> 00:43:34,690
is to not prematurely abort
the self-destruction sequence.
681
00:43:34,794 --> 00:43:35,763
So you were looking for the man
682
00:43:35,866 --> 00:43:38,776
most likely to kill himself and us.
683
00:43:41,927 --> 00:43:43,884
Cool.
684
00:43:43,988 --> 00:43:46,654
I feel so reassured.
685
00:43:52,959 --> 00:43:55,935
The omission was not deliberate, sir.
686
00:43:56,039 --> 00:43:57,841
This is one of those programs
687
00:43:57,946 --> 00:44:01,029
that was initiated years ago
by a previous administration.
688
00:44:01,134 --> 00:44:02,267
It's just one of a number of platforms
689
00:44:02,371 --> 00:44:05,045
we have exploring the singularity.
690
00:44:05,150 --> 00:44:08,684
Oh, and now, as a consequence, you
want me to drop a nuclear bomb on Utah?
691
00:44:08,787 --> 00:44:10,390
That would be general Mancheck's
recommendation, sir.
692
00:44:10,494 --> 00:44:15,437
It's a limited low-yield
tactical device, Mr. President -
693
00:44:15,542 --> 00:44:19,536
- less than a kiloton.
- Oh, is that all?
694
00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:21,515
We have ongoing test ban
treaty negotiations
695
00:44:21,620 --> 00:44:23,730
with the Russians
and the Chinese.
696
00:44:23,835 --> 00:44:25,568
We're still trying to
get North Korea and Iran
697
00:44:25,672 --> 00:44:26,598
to abort their nuclear programs.
698
00:44:26,703 --> 00:44:30,070
How am I gonna explain this to them?
699
00:44:30,174 --> 00:44:32,096
Additionally, Mr. President,
700
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:33,861
not to be crass...
701
00:44:33,965 --> 00:44:35,923
that's your job, Pat.
Weigh right in.
702
00:44:36,028 --> 00:44:38,813
Nuke Utah for whatever reason,
703
00:44:38,918 --> 00:44:41,185
and you can kiss
your reelection good-bye.
704
00:44:41,289 --> 00:44:42,866
What does Dr. Stone recommend?
705
00:44:42,970 --> 00:44:45,603
The Wildfire team
is divided over the issue.
706
00:44:45,708 --> 00:44:48,494
That wasn't my question.
707
00:44:48,598 --> 00:44:52,582
Dr. Stone would prefer
more time to examine Andromeda.
708
00:44:52,686 --> 00:44:53,896
I should add, Mr. President,
709
00:44:54,001 --> 00:44:55,510
that while no one is sure
of the origin of this infection,
710
00:44:55,613 --> 00:45:00,095
we do know that a North Korean
satellite was in in the area
711
00:45:00,199 --> 00:45:02,227
just prior to our bird going down.
712
00:45:02,331 --> 00:45:04,202
What, you're saying
this was an aggression,
713
00:45:04,305 --> 00:45:04,576
Chuck?
714
00:45:04,626 --> 00:45:05,949
Why would the Koreans do that?
715
00:45:06,052 --> 00:45:09,467
The Pyongyang regime has always
been a loose cannon, sir.
716
00:45:09,570 --> 00:45:12,026
I'm not prepared to go to war
on a hunch
717
00:45:12,131 --> 00:45:13,128
and some half-baked intelligence.
718
00:45:13,232 --> 00:45:15,959
If I authorize it, how quickly
719
00:45:16,063 --> 00:45:20,080
can you call that strike
on Piedmont, general?
720
00:45:23,091 --> 00:45:26,243
Let's give Dr. Stone
some time to do his work.
721
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:32,546
You lied to me about that satellite.
722
00:45:35,390 --> 00:45:36,979
"Need to know," Ed.
723
00:45:37,083 --> 00:45:39,371
If you ever lie to me again, Chuck,
724
00:45:39,476 --> 00:45:40,421
and homeland security
might just stumble
725
00:45:40,526 --> 00:45:44,619
over on of your little
"off the book" ops.
726
00:45:47,059 --> 00:45:48,188
Why did you push
the Korean scenario?
727
00:45:48,292 --> 00:45:51,611
You said yourself it was a possibility.
728
00:45:51,716 --> 00:45:55,025
But unlikely. You know
something I don't, Chuck?
729
00:45:55,129 --> 00:45:58,802
Just do your job, general.
Let me do mine.
730
00:46:02,855 --> 00:46:05,781
Yes, sir.
I- I just gave it new tires...
731
00:46:16,136 --> 00:46:17,004
- Henderson.
- Charlie? Nash here.
732
00:46:17,107 --> 00:46:20,119
I got a tip from my army source.
733
00:46:20,223 --> 00:46:22,595
Units of the Salt Lake city
national guard
734
00:46:22,699 --> 00:46:25,783
are suddenly being deployed for
a "training exercise related
735
00:46:25,887 --> 00:46:27,401
to immigration and border security."
736
00:46:27,506 --> 00:46:30,925
Odd thing is, according to my source,
737
00:46:31,029 --> 00:46:33,746
the order originated directly
from the office of Chuck Beeter.
738
00:46:33,851 --> 00:46:36,140
The director of the N.S.A.
doesn't have the authority
739
00:46:36,243 --> 00:46:38,354
to call out the national
guard. Fancy that.
740
00:46:38,458 --> 00:46:41,092
Oh, also, something's happened
to my original source on Scoop.
741
00:46:41,196 --> 00:46:43,343
He left me some weird message
that cut out abruptly.
742
00:46:43,447 --> 00:46:44,931
If I-if I text you his particulars,
743
00:46:45,035 --> 00:46:47,359
can you pull the phone records,
744
00:46:47,463 --> 00:46:49,610
- tell me where the call came from?
- Sure.
745
00:46:49,715 --> 00:46:52,348
I'll see what I can do. And you
check in with me regular, Nash,
746
00:46:52,452 --> 00:46:53,815
and watch yourself.
747
00:47:01,386 --> 00:47:04,588
We're obviously dealing with
some kind of infectious agent,
748
00:47:04,692 --> 00:47:07,431
whether it's viral,
fungal, bacteriological,
749
00:47:07,535 --> 00:47:09,421
parasitic or prion,
we just don't know.
750
00:47:09,525 --> 00:47:11,187
To complicate things,
the latest weather report
751
00:47:11,291 --> 00:47:14,860
indicates a possible
Santa Anna weather condition
752
00:47:14,964 --> 00:47:17,526
developing within the next 48 hours.
753
00:47:17,630 --> 00:47:20,121
Those winds could conceivably
sweep the contagion
754
00:47:20,226 --> 00:47:22,253
towards Southern California.
755
00:47:22,357 --> 00:47:24,954
Charlie Henderson from NNT called
756
00:47:25,058 --> 00:47:26,342
about the Utah guard rollout
and the rumors
757
00:47:26,446 --> 00:47:28,385
that it originated
out of Beeter's office.
758
00:47:28,489 --> 00:47:33,096
Unbelievable.
This place leaks like a sieve.
759
00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:34,108
It's sooner than we might like,
760
00:47:34,213 --> 00:47:36,969
but not entirely unexpected.
761
00:47:37,073 --> 00:47:39,399
In any case, I think
we can stall Henderson.
762
00:47:39,503 --> 00:47:41,697
Maybe this would be
a good opportunity
763
00:47:41,801 --> 00:47:45,702
to offer NNT an exclusive
about your reelection campaign.
764
00:47:45,806 --> 00:47:47,953
You know, kill two birds with one stone.
765
00:47:48,058 --> 00:47:49,096
Henderson is not the real problem.
766
00:47:49,201 --> 00:47:51,969
He can be leveraged, but Nash-
767
00:47:52,074 --> 00:47:53,356
Nash is different.
Nash is a bulldog.
768
00:47:53,461 --> 00:47:56,697
Have you located his sources yet?
769
00:47:56,801 --> 00:47:59,032
He's gone to ground,
but we're closing in.
770
00:47:59,136 --> 00:48:01,686
The problem is, if Nash
gets in contact with Stone,
771
00:48:01,790 --> 00:48:03,450
there's gonna be no way
772
00:48:03,555 --> 00:48:05,964
to keep Project Scoop out of the press.
773
00:48:06,068 --> 00:48:07,848
Can't we just impose a gag order
774
00:48:07,952 --> 00:48:09,162
on the Wildfire team?
775
00:48:09,266 --> 00:48:11,624
That ain't gonna be pretty.
776
00:48:13,876 --> 00:48:17,219
Of course, sometimes these
communication systems
777
00:48:17,324 --> 00:48:19,743
suffer from mechanical failure.
778
00:48:19,847 --> 00:48:22,848
I say we go nuclear
and sterilize the whole area.
779
00:48:22,952 --> 00:48:24,612
Fortunately, you're not in charge.
780
00:48:24,716 --> 00:48:26,758
The final call, please
correct me if I'm wrong,
781
00:48:26,863 --> 00:48:28,509
is the president's.
782
00:48:30,843 --> 00:48:33,428
Dr. Stone, please contact
the communications officer.
783
00:48:33,533 --> 00:48:34,742
Dr. Noyce is right.
784
00:48:34,847 --> 00:48:36,129
Our job is to employ
the best science we can
785
00:48:36,234 --> 00:48:39,732
so the president has
the information he needs
786
00:48:39,836 --> 00:48:41,271
to make a decision.
787
00:48:41,375 --> 00:48:43,784
Now why don't you all
get started on the satellite?
788
00:48:43,888 --> 00:48:45,618
I'll be in in a minute.
789
00:48:54,812 --> 00:48:56,888
Call for Dr. Stone.
790
00:48:56,992 --> 00:49:00,443
We're having a problem
with the communication system.
791
00:49:00,547 --> 00:49:02,883
Now we're okay within the lab,
792
00:49:02,987 --> 00:49:05,395
but I can't raise the outside at all.
793
00:49:05,500 --> 00:49:09,114
Computer, phones - nada.
794
00:49:20,738 --> 00:49:22,327
Okay.
795
00:49:22,432 --> 00:49:23,898
So we'll be entering the capsule
through the compartment door,
796
00:49:24,002 --> 00:49:28,667
which was originally removed
by Piedmont's late fire chief.
797
00:49:28,771 --> 00:49:30,657
I think it's safe to conclude
798
00:49:30,761 --> 00:49:32,636
that Andromeda was originally
inside the capsule,
799
00:49:32,740 --> 00:49:34,626
otherwise the citizens
who recovered it
800
00:49:34,730 --> 00:49:36,651
would never have made it
back to town alive.
801
00:49:36,755 --> 00:49:39,056
What did Mancheck say the
satellite was doing?
802
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:39,840
He didn't say.
803
00:49:39,944 --> 00:49:41,829
Apparently, we're experiencing
804
00:49:41,933 --> 00:49:44,200
some kind of technical glitch
within our communication system.
805
00:49:44,305 --> 00:49:46,107
Glitch?
I don't like glitch.
806
00:49:46,211 --> 00:49:48,253
All external computer
and communication lines
807
00:49:48,357 --> 00:49:50,384
are down, but I've been assured
808
00:49:50,488 --> 00:49:51,771
that they're gonna have them up
and running as soon as possible.
809
00:49:51,876 --> 00:49:56,807
- Please, Dr. Chou, continue.
- Uh, well, this is not a new satellite.
810
00:49:56,912 --> 00:49:59,876
I would say it's at least
two to three generations old.
811
00:49:59,980 --> 00:50:01,902
And from what I can
tell from the exterior,
812
00:50:02,006 --> 00:50:03,928
it wasn't designed
for communications,
813
00:50:04,032 --> 00:50:05,918
navigations or surveillance.
814
00:50:06,021 --> 00:50:09,106
In fact, what it appears to be is a
biocontainment vessel.
815
00:50:09,210 --> 00:50:12,979
Son of a bitch.
816
00:50:13,083 --> 00:50:15,860
Well, it's very damn odd.
It means that it was designed
817
00:50:15,964 --> 00:50:17,886
to capture and retain
biological materials.
818
00:50:17,990 --> 00:50:22,089
Which means two things-
819
00:50:22,193 --> 00:50:23,945
And the second thing?
820
00:50:24,049 --> 00:50:26,224
Mancheck is lying.
821
00:50:26,328 --> 00:50:29,781
So it was what?
822
00:50:29,885 --> 00:50:30,943
Randomly collecting
bio samples in space?
823
00:50:31,047 --> 00:50:35,446
- What are the chances of that?
- Slim to none.
824
00:50:35,549 --> 00:50:37,504
Let's pop it open.
825
00:51:06,734 --> 00:51:09,889
Wait. Go back.
826
00:51:09,994 --> 00:51:10,789
Stop it.
827
00:51:10,894 --> 00:51:13,299
Zoom in.
828
00:51:16,902 --> 00:51:18,219
Could that material be Andromeda?
829
00:51:18,323 --> 00:51:21,784
That's still to be determined.
830
00:51:21,888 --> 00:51:23,585
If that's what knocked
the satellite down,
831
00:51:23,690 --> 00:51:26,773
it must have been moving
at a tremendous rate of speed
832
00:51:26,878 --> 00:51:28,988
or be incredibly heavy.
How could that be?
833
00:51:29,093 --> 00:51:30,375
It didn't do that much damage
to the satellite.
834
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:34,203
Maybe it has elastic qualities
we don't know about.
835
00:51:34,307 --> 00:51:35,967
For now, let's assume
this is Andromeda.
836
00:51:36,071 --> 00:51:38,930
Bill and Charlene, you check
the pathology of this thing.
837
00:51:39,034 --> 00:51:40,298
See if you can figure out how it kills.
838
00:51:40,402 --> 00:51:43,657
Dr. Noyce, you examine our survivors.
839
00:51:43,762 --> 00:51:45,422
Find out what kept them alive.
840
00:51:45,526 --> 00:51:48,610
Dr. Chou, you and I will test
the black substance in Andromeda
841
00:51:48,714 --> 00:51:50,600
for what conditions
each likes and dislikes.
842
00:51:50,704 --> 00:51:53,596
See if we can't I.D. their
nature and their structure.
843
00:52:12,057 --> 00:52:14,688
So, sergeant George, you
and the men of Bravo company
844
00:52:14,792 --> 00:52:17,211
have no idea then what this
sudden call-up is about.
845
00:52:17,316 --> 00:52:17,651
No, sir.
846
00:52:17,756 --> 00:52:20,091
They pretty much tell us
to show up
847
00:52:20,195 --> 00:52:22,687
and we find out what the deal
is when we get there.
848
00:52:22,792 --> 00:52:24,143
Meanwhile, the pentagon insists
849
00:52:24,248 --> 00:52:26,395
this sudden alert
of the Utah national guard
850
00:52:26,498 --> 00:52:28,682
is nothing more than
a routine training exercise.
851
00:52:28,786 --> 00:52:30,305
No further details are forthcoming,
852
00:52:30,409 --> 00:52:33,185
including when this deployment
will be over.
853
00:52:33,289 --> 00:52:38,620
When have we heard that before?
854
00:52:46,725 --> 00:52:48,907
Computer, patient number one,
855
00:52:49,010 --> 00:52:52,770
according to documents
found on him, is Kyle Tobler-
856
00:52:52,874 --> 00:52:54,985
Male, 60 years old,
857
00:52:55,089 --> 00:52:58,137
Undernourished,
possibly anemic.
858
00:52:58,241 --> 00:53:00,458
Computer, has he responded
since arrival?
859
00:53:07,851 --> 00:53:09,688
Basolyte test results?
860
00:53:11,039 --> 00:53:13,670
Kyle Tobler is a G.I.
Bleeder.
861
00:53:13,774 --> 00:53:16,409
I want two units of
whole blood, plus plasma,
862
00:53:16,513 --> 00:53:17,948
And vitamin K for him
863
00:53:18,052 --> 00:53:20,493
and a complete blood workup
on both patients.
864
00:53:28,824 --> 00:53:31,074
You're gonna be okay,
sweetie. I promise.
865
00:53:34,226 --> 00:53:37,534
Hey, Charlie.
What's up?
866
00:53:37,637 --> 00:53:39,821
I've got some bad news
about your friend.
867
00:53:39,925 --> 00:53:41,669
He's dead.
868
00:53:41,773 --> 00:53:44,324
I'll text you the details
in a moment.
869
00:53:44,428 --> 00:53:46,158
I'm sorry.
870
00:54:33,433 --> 00:54:35,165
Time - ten seconds.
871
00:54:35,269 --> 00:54:37,191
Damn, this thing is lethal.
872
00:54:37,295 --> 00:54:40,154
And airborne, if there was any doubt.
873
00:54:40,258 --> 00:54:42,297
Let's check it.
874
00:54:42,889 --> 00:54:48,117
Most John Does we get
don't drive a Harley Panhead.
875
00:54:48,221 --> 00:54:51,410
Lucky for him you remember that.
876
00:54:51,515 --> 00:54:53,483
Yeah.
877
00:54:53,588 --> 00:54:54,716
Lucky for him.
878
00:54:54,820 --> 00:54:58,803
This your friend?
879
00:54:58,907 --> 00:55:02,442
I don't know if you know anybody
in the family or anything,
880
00:55:02,545 --> 00:55:05,451
But, uh, if his bike's
available now, you know,
881
00:55:05,556 --> 00:55:07,428
I'd love to buy it.
882
00:55:13,055 --> 00:55:16,207
No harm in askin', right?
883
00:55:17,558 --> 00:55:19,584
Removing contaminated air.
884
00:55:49,301 --> 00:55:51,032
Dead animals are not infectious.
885
00:55:51,135 --> 00:55:54,445
That's an extremely
unusual adaptation
886
00:55:54,548 --> 00:55:56,434
if that's what that is.
887
00:55:56,538 --> 00:55:59,481
Well, we know Andromeda
coagulates the blood,
888
00:55:59,585 --> 00:56:01,436
but how does it enter the body -
889
00:56:01,540 --> 00:56:04,314
Through the lungs or the skin?
890
00:56:04,418 --> 00:56:05,476
We can radioactively tag
some blood proteins
891
00:56:05,580 --> 00:56:09,161
and scan the animals
on their initial exposures.
892
00:56:09,265 --> 00:56:11,067
Let's start with a rhesus.
893
00:56:11,172 --> 00:56:14,481
So you think Mancheck
deliberately isolated us?
894
00:56:14,585 --> 00:56:16,696
Let's just say
895
00:56:16,800 --> 00:56:18,946
I wouldn't put it past him.
896
00:56:19,051 --> 00:56:21,910
Have you told the others?
I don't want them distracted.
897
00:56:22,014 --> 00:56:24,644
There's so little time as it is.
Why tell me?
898
00:56:27,571 --> 00:56:31,365
I guess because I needed
somebody to talk to,
899
00:56:31,469 --> 00:56:33,424
somebody I trust.
900
00:56:35,901 --> 00:56:38,307
Mmm. Are you making
any progress?
901
00:56:38,411 --> 00:56:40,867
Yes, the infant's
blood work is normal,
902
00:56:40,971 --> 00:56:43,296
and Tobler's anemic,
and his PH is very acidic.
903
00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:44,835
I don't know why.
904
00:56:44,940 --> 00:56:47,382
Why don't you go ask him?
905
00:56:52,335 --> 00:56:54,514
- George, this is Dr. Stone.
- Yes, sir, what can I do for you?
906
00:56:54,618 --> 00:56:56,015
We're having some kind of
communications problem down here
907
00:56:56,119 --> 00:56:59,505
and I need your help.
Do you got a cell phone that works?
908
00:56:59,610 --> 00:57:02,015
Yeah, my wife got me
this new Blackberry.
909
00:57:27,868 --> 00:57:30,310
Jack, it's Jeremy Stone.
910
00:57:30,415 --> 00:57:33,012
I need to talk to you.
It's urgent.
911
00:57:33,117 --> 00:57:34,430
I'll try to call back in one hour.
Damn it!
912
00:58:18,403 --> 00:58:21,759
Aah!
Who the hell are you?
913
00:58:21,863 --> 00:58:22,860
Where am I?
914
00:58:22,965 --> 00:58:25,774
I'm Dr. Noyce.
915
00:58:25,878 --> 00:58:26,895
You were bleeding
very badly internally,
916
00:58:26,999 --> 00:58:30,988
and we had to give
you a transfusion.
917
00:58:31,093 --> 00:58:33,203
What happened in Piedmont?
918
00:58:33,308 --> 00:58:34,436
There was an outbreak of disease.
919
00:58:34,540 --> 00:58:38,334
That's why we brought you here.
920
00:58:38,439 --> 00:58:39,347
Am I contagious?
921
00:58:39,451 --> 00:58:42,434
We don't think so,
922
00:58:42,538 --> 00:58:44,896
but we don't want
to take any chances.
923
00:58:59,755 --> 00:59:03,132
Initiating the scintillometer
and exposing the subject.
924
00:59:24,293 --> 00:59:26,474
Definitely inspired by the lungs,
925
00:59:26,578 --> 00:59:28,537
Andromeda then crosses
into the bloodstream
926
00:59:28,641 --> 00:59:31,202
and begins coagulation.
927
00:59:31,306 --> 00:59:32,477
But is that how it actually kills?
928
00:59:32,581 --> 00:59:37,505
Could it be a single cerebral clot?
929
00:59:37,610 --> 00:59:39,456
Maybe an anticoagulant
could stop this thing?
930
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:43,484
Let's repeat with something
like Heparin.
931
00:59:43,588 --> 00:59:44,034
Okay.
932
00:59:44,138 --> 00:59:46,997
I want to get these tissues
samples out to the lab first.
933
00:59:47,101 --> 00:59:49,971
Computer, sample and stain
with H&E and P.A. s.
934
00:59:50,075 --> 00:59:53,075
I also would like sections
of the nerve tissue stained
935
00:59:53,180 --> 00:59:55,410
with both nissl
and cajal gold preparations.
936
00:59:55,515 --> 00:59:56,666
The black material is artificial.
937
00:59:56,770 --> 00:59:58,604
What do you mean?
A construct?
938
00:59:58,708 --> 01:00:02,944
Yeah, at first it appears to have
939
01:00:03,048 --> 01:00:04,444
a complex lattice-like
microstructure of carbon fibers.
940
01:00:04,548 --> 01:00:09,318
Further analysis reveals
a structure of buckyballs.
941
01:00:12,695 --> 01:00:15,184
Well, that would explain
how the contact
942
01:00:15,288 --> 01:00:16,529
drove the satellite out of orbit
without damaging it,
943
01:00:16,634 --> 01:00:20,315
but isn't this kind of
application still theoretical?
944
01:00:20,419 --> 01:00:22,341
Yeah. This is nanotechnology
light-years ahead
945
01:00:22,446 --> 01:00:24,593
of anything anyone
is doing right now.
946
01:00:24,697 --> 01:00:26,202
What about the other material?
947
01:00:39,259 --> 01:00:40,610
Did you see that?
948
01:00:42,719 --> 01:00:45,387
That must be our infectious agent.
949
01:00:45,492 --> 01:00:46,913
Computer, replay.
950
01:00:48,939 --> 01:00:50,290
That's Andromeda.
951
01:01:08,075 --> 01:01:09,054
Did anybody else make it?
952
01:01:09,159 --> 01:01:13,786
Just you and the baby.
953
01:01:18,656 --> 01:01:20,536
That's Sylvie.
It's the Ritter kid.
954
01:01:20,639 --> 01:01:24,926
Not used to her being so quiet.
955
01:01:25,030 --> 01:01:26,163
She's one little yeller.
956
01:01:26,268 --> 01:01:30,137
Cries to beat the band.
957
01:01:32,388 --> 01:01:33,255
Nobody else made it?
958
01:01:33,359 --> 01:01:35,990
No, I'm afraid not.
959
01:01:45,445 --> 01:01:48,421
This-this place
is giving me the creeps.
960
01:01:48,526 --> 01:01:50,411
I want-l want to get out of here.
961
01:01:50,515 --> 01:01:52,354
You're not well enough
to go anywhere.
962
01:01:52,458 --> 01:01:54,500
I know my rights!
I- I-I'm no damn terrorist.
963
01:01:54,604 --> 01:01:57,151
You're in quarantine.
964
01:01:59,177 --> 01:02:02,296
Well-well, give me
a cigarette then.
965
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:04,285
Sorry, no smoking.
966
01:02:04,390 --> 01:02:07,154
Oh, yeah, I've heard
that bullshit before-
967
01:02:07,259 --> 01:02:10,815
No smokin', no drinkin',
no Mexican food.
968
01:02:10,918 --> 01:02:12,840
What's the point of livin' like that?
It's damn boring.
969
01:02:12,944 --> 01:02:15,219
You've been hospitalized before
for the bleeding?
970
01:02:15,323 --> 01:02:15,804
Hell, yeah.
971
01:02:15,908 --> 01:02:18,468
Spittin' up blood like old faithful.
972
01:02:18,573 --> 01:02:22,332
Tell me I got an ulcer
the size of a grapefruit.
973
01:02:22,436 --> 01:02:24,771
Did they give you
any medication, Kyle?
974
01:02:24,876 --> 01:02:28,860
They did, but I didn't much
like the taste of it.
975
01:02:28,965 --> 01:02:29,761
So you went untreated.
976
01:02:29,866 --> 01:02:33,102
What about the pain?
977
01:02:33,206 --> 01:02:35,127
Uh, Aspirin works just fine,
978
01:02:35,231 --> 01:02:37,640
About a bottle a day
towards the end there,
979
01:02:37,745 --> 01:02:40,117
plus a little squeeze.
980
01:02:40,221 --> 01:02:41,147
"Squeeze"?
981
01:02:41,252 --> 01:02:43,457
The pink lady,
982
01:02:43,562 --> 01:02:46,384
Red eye. You know, sterno.
983
01:02:46,488 --> 01:02:49,085
Sterno, that's got methanol in it.
984
01:02:49,189 --> 01:02:52,049
- Is that bad?
- It can blind you or kill you.
985
01:02:52,153 --> 01:02:55,734
Well, it didn't kill me.
986
01:02:55,838 --> 01:02:57,286
They all died,
987
01:02:57,390 --> 01:03:01,087
but I didn't.
988
01:03:06,489 --> 01:03:09,121
Kyle. Kyle, what happened
in Piedmont?
989
01:03:09,226 --> 01:03:11,409
What happened to you
and the others that night?
990
01:03:11,514 --> 01:03:13,435
I don't want to talk about it.
991
01:03:13,539 --> 01:03:14,750
It's very important.
992
01:03:14,854 --> 01:03:17,676
Lots of lives depend
on what you might know.
993
01:03:17,780 --> 01:03:20,639
Look, I don't know!
I don't want to talk about it.
994
01:03:20,743 --> 01:03:22,628
Kyle,
995
01:03:22,733 --> 01:03:24,725
what did you see that night?
996
01:03:36,205 --> 01:03:39,632
It was Jeff Megan
and Suzie Travers.
997
01:03:39,737 --> 01:03:41,409
They found the damn thing.
998
01:03:41,514 --> 01:03:45,366
They're just kids, really.
999
01:03:45,470 --> 01:03:48,779
They-they brought it
to the fire station,
1000
01:03:48,884 --> 01:03:50,994
to the chief Hank Benedict,
1001
01:03:51,099 --> 01:03:52,719
'cause I hear he's an engineer
and knows lots of stuff.
1002
01:03:52,823 --> 01:03:57,784
The only reason I know
is 'cause I was playin' poker
1003
01:03:57,889 --> 01:03:59,858
at the fire station -
Me, Hank
1004
01:03:59,962 --> 01:04:02,962
aAnd Al Ritter
who runs the gas station,
1005
01:04:03,067 --> 01:04:04,218
Herbie Block and Annie Dillon.
1006
01:04:04,322 --> 01:04:05,788
You think it's from outer space?
1007
01:04:05,893 --> 01:04:09,229
It fell from the sky, Annie.
1008
01:04:09,333 --> 01:04:11,480
You know what I mean.
Is it alien?
1009
01:04:11,585 --> 01:04:15,119
Yeah, that's why it says
U.S.A. on the side.
1010
01:04:15,223 --> 01:04:16,883
You think aliens can't spell?
1011
01:04:16,988 --> 01:04:19,135
Probably just a weather satellite.
1012
01:04:19,238 --> 01:04:21,647
Yeah, that's what
they want you to think.
1013
01:04:21,752 --> 01:04:23,412
Have you ever heard of area 51?
1014
01:04:23,516 --> 01:04:26,338
You don't think that there
aren't all these secret
1015
01:04:26,442 --> 01:04:30,202
government things that goes on
that none of us know about?
1016
01:04:30,306 --> 01:04:32,288
- What do you think, Hank?
- It's a satellite -
1017
01:04:32,392 --> 01:04:34,893
Weather or communications
or something.
1018
01:04:34,997 --> 01:04:38,720
I'll make a few calls, and let
you know what I find out.
1019
01:04:38,824 --> 01:04:41,233
About a half-hour later,
I'm gettin' a soda
1020
01:04:41,338 --> 01:04:43,223
from Al's gas station
1021
01:04:43,327 --> 01:04:45,699
because the squeeze makes
you kind of thirsty.
1022
01:04:45,803 --> 01:04:48,212
So you'd been drinking that day?
1023
01:04:48,316 --> 01:04:48,999
How did you feel?
1024
01:04:49,104 --> 01:04:51,327
A- A-A little dizzy,
1025
01:04:51,431 --> 01:04:53,649
my-my breath was
kind of short on me.
1026
01:04:55,757 --> 01:04:58,306
My head!
1027
01:04:58,410 --> 01:05:01,269
Aah! My head!
1028
01:05:01,373 --> 01:05:02,732
Al?
1029
01:05:02,836 --> 01:05:08,436
Al? !
1030
01:05:08,541 --> 01:05:11,207
Hang on!
Hang on, buddy!
1031
01:05:23,589 --> 01:05:25,320
Hey, Annie.
1032
01:05:25,425 --> 01:05:28,697
What's going on?
What's wrong with these people?
1033
01:05:28,801 --> 01:05:32,786
You got to burn 'em out. Don't
you see? It's the only way.
1034
01:05:32,890 --> 01:05:35,263
Annie, well, what...?
1035
01:05:35,367 --> 01:05:37,252
Annie!
1036
01:05:37,356 --> 01:05:39,315
What--?
Hey, Annie!
1037
01:05:39,419 --> 01:05:44,976
Annie!
1038
01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:54,740
And then everything's quiet.
1039
01:05:56,766 --> 01:06:00,476
Then it's like
the whole world is dead.
1040
01:06:00,581 --> 01:06:01,827
And that's when I saw the general,
1041
01:06:01,931 --> 01:06:06,555
Scott Arnold, a vet,
steady as a rock.
1042
01:06:06,659 --> 01:06:08,402
You know what's happening, Kyle.
1043
01:06:08,506 --> 01:06:11,471
They've gotten under the wire.
They're inside the compound.
1044
01:06:11,575 --> 01:06:14,659
- I don't think that's it, general.
- Got to face facts, soldier.
1045
01:06:14,764 --> 01:06:17,894
You tell 'em back home
l did my best, okay?
1046
01:06:17,998 --> 01:06:20,026
I thought I'd gone crazy,
1047
01:06:20,130 --> 01:06:22,847
Hallucinatin',
too much pink lady maybe.
1048
01:06:22,951 --> 01:06:25,287
Hey! Hey! Hey, over here!
1049
01:06:25,391 --> 01:06:28,355
It's me! I'm here.
Help me, man!
1050
01:06:28,459 --> 01:06:31,802
Help me, man!
You got to help me!
1051
01:06:34,953 --> 01:06:36,529
No, no, no!
1052
01:06:39,231 --> 01:06:40,661
Help, help,
1053
01:06:40,765 --> 01:06:43,211
No, no, no, no!
1054
01:06:43,315 --> 01:06:47,716
Poor bastard.
1055
01:06:47,820 --> 01:06:51,354
So Tobler was acidotic because
of the methanol he was drinking.
1056
01:06:51,459 --> 01:06:54,506
It breaks down and becomes
formaldehyde and formic acid.
1057
01:06:54,610 --> 01:06:56,758
Plus he was taking
a bottle of aspirin a day.
1058
01:06:56,862 --> 01:06:58,522
That affected his breathing?
1059
01:06:58,626 --> 01:07:01,260
He had to breath rapidly
to blow off the carbon dioxide
1060
01:07:01,364 --> 01:07:03,249
and decrease the carbonic acid
in his body.
1061
01:07:03,354 --> 01:07:05,501
Well, maybe there's a way
1062
01:07:05,605 --> 01:07:08,238
to attack Andromeda in there.
No, the baby's PH is normal.
1063
01:07:08,343 --> 01:07:09,648
There's nothing unusual
about her except her colic.
1064
01:07:09,753 --> 01:07:12,557
Charlene? Here's
what we know so far.
1065
01:07:12,661 --> 01:07:16,081
Andromeda is approximately 1 micron,
1066
01:07:16,185 --> 01:07:19,045
the size of a single cell.
It's transmitted by air.
1067
01:07:19,149 --> 01:07:20,733
Dead organisms are not infectious.
1068
01:07:20,837 --> 01:07:24,636
Andromeda is inspired by its victim.
1069
01:07:24,740 --> 01:07:27,599
It crosses into the bloodstream
where it initiates coagulation.
1070
01:07:27,704 --> 01:07:28,387
Death occurs within seconds.
1071
01:07:28,491 --> 01:07:31,165
Now we tested anticoagulants,
1072
01:07:31,269 --> 01:07:33,641
but they don't affect its process.
1073
01:07:33,745 --> 01:07:35,388
So it cannot transmit from a
corpse?
1074
01:07:35,493 --> 01:07:36,604
Yeah, strange, isn't it?
1075
01:07:36,709 --> 01:07:39,531
Andromeda kills men, kills
all mammals as far as we know
1076
01:07:39,635 --> 01:07:41,520
and then dies within the organism.
1077
01:07:41,625 --> 01:07:42,795
It shows no signs of having
adapted to mankind.
1078
01:07:42,899 --> 01:07:46,248
You know, maybe this
is just what it seems -
1079
01:07:46,352 --> 01:07:47,522
An alien life-form, the first
mankind has ever encountered.
1080
01:07:47,626 --> 01:07:52,138
So it's not cuddly like E.T.,
but there it is. Deal with it.
1081
01:07:52,242 --> 01:07:54,352
Who says it's natural?
It could be engineered.
1082
01:07:54,456 --> 01:07:56,865
Especially given what Tsi
discovered when he was looking
1083
01:07:56,969 --> 01:07:59,613
at the black material
alongside Andromeda.
1084
01:07:59,717 --> 01:08:02,232
Yeah, it's an extremely advanced
form of nanotechnology
1085
01:08:02,336 --> 01:08:05,420
called Buckyballs, named after
the inventor Buckminster Fuller.
1086
01:08:05,524 --> 01:08:08,429
The molecule is form of
carbon 60, octahedral in shape,
1087
01:08:08,534 --> 01:08:11,237
with 60 atoms forming
the shape of a ball.
1088
01:08:11,341 --> 01:08:14,734
So if this black material
was a manufactured shell
1089
01:08:14,838 --> 01:08:16,864
containing Andromeda,
1090
01:08:16,968 --> 01:08:20,811
then what you're describing is
some kind of a biological bomb.
1091
01:08:20,916 --> 01:08:22,943
- Whoa!
- Why not?
1092
01:08:23,047 --> 01:08:24,217
It would be arrogant
to think that human beings
1093
01:08:24,322 --> 01:08:27,670
are the only creatures
sophisticated enough
1094
01:08:27,775 --> 01:08:30,492
to use bacterial warfare. Why would
you assume alien origin at all?
1095
01:08:30,596 --> 01:08:32,885
Mancheck said there was a North
Korean satellite in the area.
1096
01:08:32,989 --> 01:08:36,225
If anyone was gonna attack
the United States,
1097
01:08:36,329 --> 01:08:38,738
why go through all the trouble
of sending a contagion
1098
01:08:38,842 --> 01:08:39,881
into space and hoping
that Nasa will pick it up?
1099
01:08:39,985 --> 01:08:43,429
Why not simply bring it in
on a shipping container
1100
01:08:43,533 --> 01:08:44,929
like one of the thousands that
come in every day un-inspected
1101
01:08:45,033 --> 01:08:49,094
because homeland security just
doesn't have enough resources
1102
01:08:49,198 --> 01:08:51,084
to do the job?
1103
01:08:51,188 --> 01:08:52,358
And for that matter,
why use such an exotic bug
1104
01:08:52,462 --> 01:08:54,908
when plague, typhus or smallpox
would be just fine?
1105
01:08:55,012 --> 01:08:59,413
Well, you'd be the expert on that.
Whoa!
1106
01:08:59,517 --> 01:09:02,376
Easy, Keene. Mancheck is a
liar, and you are a racist fool!
1107
01:09:02,480 --> 01:09:04,485
Yeah? How many died in that
outbreak in Shanghal?
1108
01:09:04,590 --> 01:09:07,812
That's enough, both of you.
1109
01:09:21,094 --> 01:09:22,229
It's growing?
1110
01:09:22,333 --> 01:09:25,077
That's right.
1111
01:09:25,181 --> 01:09:26,689
Now the first time it displayed
that behavior it was unprovoked.
1112
01:09:26,793 --> 01:09:31,642
So is what we just saw some kind
of nonspecific growth response
1113
01:09:31,746 --> 01:09:33,857
Or a sentient reaction to injury?
1114
01:09:33,961 --> 01:09:35,582
Maybe it just doesn't like being poked?
1115
01:09:35,686 --> 01:09:39,522
I think we need to
focus more on structure,
1116
01:09:39,626 --> 01:09:41,511
what is Andromeda made of.
1117
01:09:41,616 --> 01:09:44,474
Bill, you and Charlene,
do an amino acid workup
1118
01:09:44,578 --> 01:09:45,617
while Tsi does a spectro-analysis.
1119
01:09:45,721 --> 01:09:48,076
I'd like to continue my exploration
1120
01:09:48,180 --> 01:09:50,149
of the black material.
1121
01:09:50,254 --> 01:09:53,479
That is, unless you think
I'm a security risk, Bill?
1122
01:09:53,583 --> 01:09:56,144
I trust you, Tsi. Why wouldn't I?
1123
01:09:56,248 --> 01:09:58,657
I know there's a link between
Kyle Tobler and Sylvie Ritter.
1124
01:09:58,761 --> 01:10:00,683
I want to continue to pursue that.
1125
01:10:00,787 --> 01:10:02,151
Let's get started.
1126
01:10:11,747 --> 01:10:14,274
I appreciate the lift, man.
Car just up and died on me.
1127
01:10:14,378 --> 01:10:15,955
No problem, man.
1128
01:10:16,059 --> 01:10:19,368
It's important to see
your family when they ship out.
1129
01:10:19,473 --> 01:10:22,745
You never know, know what I mean?
1130
01:10:22,849 --> 01:10:26,311
What happened in Shanghal?
1131
01:10:26,415 --> 01:10:28,337
It was a different time back then.
1132
01:10:28,441 --> 01:10:31,525
The international treaties
on biowarfare were toothless.
1133
01:10:31,629 --> 01:10:34,451
Every country, including yours,
was experimenting.
1134
01:10:34,556 --> 01:10:37,792
We were field testing
a weaponized version
1135
01:10:37,896 --> 01:10:41,013
of hemorrhagic smallpox
at an outdoor laboratory.
1136
01:10:44,128 --> 01:10:45,595
It proved much, uh,
hardier than we expected.
1137
01:10:45,700 --> 01:10:47,624
A young girl in a fishing boat
9 miles offshore
1138
01:10:47,728 --> 01:10:52,911
caught the disease,
brought it back to the city.
1139
01:10:53,015 --> 01:10:56,560
It killed 107 people,
1140
01:10:56,664 --> 01:10:59,923
30 of them children,
before we could contain it.
1141
01:11:03,383 --> 01:11:06,157
There were people
in both our governments
1142
01:11:06,262 --> 01:11:07,882
who were prepared to unleash
unimaginable horrors.
1143
01:11:07,987 --> 01:11:13,848
I like to think that
in the end reason prevailed,
1144
01:11:13,952 --> 01:11:18,434
but maybe we were
just very, very lucky.
1145
01:11:18,538 --> 01:11:20,185
Jeremy! Jeremy!
1146
01:11:22,436 --> 01:11:23,528
You're not gonna believe this.
1147
01:11:23,633 --> 01:11:26,869
Andromeda doesn't have D.N.A.
1148
01:11:26,973 --> 01:11:30,282
- What is it, some kind of prion?
- No proteins, not even any amino acids.
1149
01:11:30,386 --> 01:11:31,596
Charlene was right.
1150
01:11:31,700 --> 01:11:34,193
There has never been
anything like Andromeda
1151
01:11:34,297 --> 01:11:35,874
anywhere on the earth.
1152
01:11:35,978 --> 01:11:38,728
This is terra incognita.
This is alien.
1153
01:11:42,022 --> 01:11:44,878
Hey, that's good eatin'.
1154
01:11:44,982 --> 01:11:48,030
- Appreciate the food, Mr. Nash.
- My pleasure, sergeant.
1155
01:11:48,135 --> 01:11:50,993
Didn't know they were embedding
journalists on this operation.
1156
01:11:51,098 --> 01:11:53,434
Pretty much standard operating
procedure these days.
1157
01:11:53,537 --> 01:11:56,396
Just bringin' the war on terror home.
1158
01:11:56,501 --> 01:11:57,485
- Nash.
- Jeremy Stone.
1159
01:11:57,589 --> 01:11:59,998
Jeremy Stone-I've been trying
to reach you, man.
1160
01:12:00,103 --> 01:12:01,763
Where the hell are you?
1161
01:12:01,867 --> 01:12:03,727
You sound like you're at the
bottom of a well.
1162
01:12:03,831 --> 01:12:04,500
You can say that.
1163
01:12:04,605 --> 01:12:06,715
Listen, why is the guard
deploying in southern Utah?
1164
01:12:06,820 --> 01:12:09,191
They're
calling it an exercise,
1165
01:12:09,296 --> 01:12:11,668
but the orders originated
with the N.S.A.
1166
01:12:11,772 --> 01:12:13,209
Possibly because
some kind of secret satellite
1167
01:12:13,314 --> 01:12:14,838
code-named Project Scoop
came down in the desert.
1168
01:12:14,943 --> 01:12:19,547
- What is Project Scoop?
- No idea, but it's army.
1169
01:12:19,651 --> 01:12:22,736
This is being run by our
old friend general Mancheck.
1170
01:12:22,840 --> 01:12:24,761
Let me tell you,
when that sucker came down,
1171
01:12:24,866 --> 01:12:26,385
it killed a lot of people.
1172
01:12:26,488 --> 01:12:28,777
I mean, no one's saying
infectious outbreak, but--
1173
01:12:28,882 --> 01:12:30,227
And-
and how do you know that?
1174
01:12:30,341 --> 01:12:32,416
I can't give details,
but it cost my source his life.
1175
01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:34,406
And it wasn't any virus
killed him either,
1176
01:12:34,510 --> 01:12:37,452
unless microbes routinely
pack.9 millimeter slugs.
1177
01:12:37,556 --> 01:12:39,004
These guys are not
messing around, Jeremy.
1178
01:12:39,108 --> 01:12:42,143
Now I'm being followed.
At least, I was.
1179
01:12:42,247 --> 01:12:45,474
Are those guard units carrying
any biohazard here with them?
1180
01:12:45,577 --> 01:12:47,913
I don't know, but I can check.
1181
01:12:48,017 --> 01:12:51,290
All right. Well, pay close
attention to their equipment.
1182
01:12:51,394 --> 01:12:54,187
- I got to go, Jack.
- Wait, wait, wait.
1183
01:12:54,291 --> 01:12:56,939
I showed you mine. You show me yours.
1184
01:12:57,888 --> 01:13:00,782
It's a biological
infection called Andromeda.
1185
01:13:00,886 --> 01:13:02,630
That's all I can say for now.
1186
01:13:02,734 --> 01:13:03,750
When I know more, I'll call
you first. I promise.
1187
01:13:03,854 --> 01:13:07,048
Look, in the meantime, see
what else you can find out
1188
01:13:07,153 --> 01:13:09,336
about Project Scoop, and I'll
call you back in three hours.
1189
01:13:09,441 --> 01:13:11,410
Listen, Jack, be careful,
1190
01:13:11,513 --> 01:13:13,577
and I'm not just talking
about the army
1191
01:13:13,681 --> 01:13:16,540
and whoever else is
following you. Andromeda.
1192
01:13:16,645 --> 01:13:20,400
It's lethal, beyond comprehension.
1193
01:13:24,678 --> 01:13:25,657
Tuesday, Marti, pot roast.
1194
01:13:25,761 --> 01:13:28,210
It's just coffee, Sally.
1195
01:13:28,314 --> 01:13:30,948
You all right, Marti? You look
kind of green around the gills.
1196
01:13:31,052 --> 01:13:33,424
Flu or somethin',
my head's killin' me.
1197
01:13:33,529 --> 01:13:36,159
- You have any aspirin?
- Yeah, sure.
1198
01:13:38,185 --> 01:13:39,390
They're all out to get me.
1199
01:13:39,494 --> 01:13:43,363
Marti, you're hurting me.
1200
01:13:51,243 --> 01:13:54,252
Please, Marti, please.
1201
01:13:57,996 --> 01:14:00,214
General, there has been
an incident
1202
01:14:00,318 --> 01:14:02,203
40 miles south of Piedmont.
1203
01:14:02,308 --> 01:14:04,942
A Utah sheriff named Willis
has shot three people
1204
01:14:05,046 --> 01:14:06,932
and killed himself.
1205
01:14:07,035 --> 01:14:09,561
Here's the raw network feed.
1206
01:14:15,556 --> 01:14:17,890
And here's the security camera.
1207
01:14:20,022 --> 01:14:21,150
Please, Marti, please,
1208
01:14:21,254 --> 01:14:25,461
Please.
1209
01:14:27,488 --> 01:14:30,202
- If it's Andromeda...
- It is.
1210
01:14:30,306 --> 01:14:31,364
I don't know how Willis
escaped quarantine.
1211
01:14:31,468 --> 01:14:34,827
Willis could have passed
through Piedmont
1212
01:14:34,932 --> 01:14:37,443
the night of the infection
before the quarantine went up.
1213
01:14:37,547 --> 01:14:39,574
Have you isolated these bodies
1214
01:14:39,679 --> 01:14:41,089
and whoever worked the crime
scene?
1215
01:14:41,193 --> 01:14:42,087
Already done, general.
1216
01:14:42,191 --> 01:14:44,302
Mancheck.
1217
01:14:44,406 --> 01:14:47,715
I have a message from Dr. Stone
regarding Project Scoop.
1218
01:14:47,819 --> 01:14:50,950
Unless communication
is restored fully
1219
01:14:51,054 --> 01:14:52,631
to the lab,
1220
01:14:52,735 --> 01:14:55,594
Jack Nash will go public
with all the details
1221
01:14:55,698 --> 01:14:57,584
Live on NNT.
1222
01:14:57,688 --> 01:14:59,905
You have ten minutes to comply.
1223
01:15:03,732 --> 01:15:05,533
What happened?
1224
01:15:09,135 --> 01:15:11,386
Stone knows about Project Scoop.
1225
01:15:17,014 --> 01:15:19,458
Put Wildfire back online.
1226
01:15:19,562 --> 01:15:20,713
Get me Stone.
1227
01:15:20,817 --> 01:15:23,768
Yes, general.
1228
01:15:39,610 --> 01:15:42,383
Come on.
You deliberately isolated us.
1229
01:15:42,487 --> 01:15:43,771
And you lied about the purpose
for the satellite, general.
1230
01:15:43,875 --> 01:15:47,822
We had a technical problem,
and the problem got solved.
1231
01:15:47,927 --> 01:15:49,623
Now we want the full facts
on Project Scoop
1232
01:15:49,728 --> 01:15:51,613
and everything associated with it,
1233
01:15:51,718 --> 01:15:54,576
or I swear to God every press
agency from "the New York times"
1234
01:15:54,680 --> 01:15:57,537
To some podunk podcaster in
Nebraska will get this story.
1235
01:15:59,787 --> 01:16:02,005
Nasa astronomers discovered
a singularity
1236
01:16:02,110 --> 01:16:05,346
- in our solar system.
- A singularity?
1237
01:16:05,450 --> 01:16:06,897
A theoretical distortion
in the space/time...
1238
01:16:07,002 --> 01:16:08,084
continuum. No longer theoretical -
1239
01:16:08,189 --> 01:16:10,974
There was a sudden
and inexplicable appearance
1240
01:16:11,078 --> 01:16:13,037
of a tiny source emitting
extremely powerful bursts
1241
01:16:13,141 --> 01:16:15,476
of light and energy -
ln short, a wormhole.
1242
01:16:15,580 --> 01:16:19,115
Now we're still in the process
of analyzing that data,
1243
01:16:19,219 --> 01:16:21,555
but physicists have theorized
since 1935
1244
01:16:21,659 --> 01:16:24,067
That traversable wormholes
could function as portals
1245
01:16:24,171 --> 01:16:26,958
between distant parts of the galaxy.
1246
01:16:27,062 --> 01:16:28,007
Project Scoop was
one of several attempts
1247
01:16:28,111 --> 01:16:31,947
to explore this phenomenon,
and in this case,
1248
01:16:32,051 --> 01:16:33,428
to collect samples
of living organisms.
1249
01:16:33,532 --> 01:16:36,638
Now we're not sure
exactly what happened,
1250
01:16:36,742 --> 01:16:39,826
but on approach, the satellite
became erratic and came down.
1251
01:16:39,930 --> 01:16:43,511
Shortly thereafter,
the wormhole, or...
1252
01:16:43,616 --> 01:16:46,994
whatever the hell it was, closed.
1253
01:16:47,098 --> 01:16:49,921
Well, why in God's name
did you withhold this?
1254
01:16:50,024 --> 01:16:52,967
We have wasted valuable time, time we
don't have, flailing about in the dark.
1255
01:16:53,071 --> 01:16:54,294
Can you imagine the panic
news of an event like this
1256
01:16:54,398 --> 01:16:58,370
would have caused?
It was strictly need-to-know.
1257
01:16:58,474 --> 01:17:00,501
Need to cover your ass.
1258
01:17:00,605 --> 01:17:02,338
Now why would the army's bio-defense
1259
01:17:02,443 --> 01:17:03,127
be covertly collecting samples?
1260
01:17:03,231 --> 01:17:05,679
Maybe shopping for lethal material
1261
01:17:05,783 --> 01:17:07,967
that wouldn't be covered
by any existing
1262
01:17:08,071 --> 01:17:09,506
or future biowarfare agreements?
1263
01:17:09,610 --> 01:17:10,781
What we did,
whatever you think of our motives,
1264
01:17:10,884 --> 01:17:14,009
the problem facing us
right now is Andromeda,
1265
01:17:14,113 --> 01:17:15,365
and it's getting worse by
the minute.
1266
01:17:15,469 --> 01:17:16,032
What do you mean?
1267
01:17:16,136 --> 01:17:18,547
Well, the president, largely
on your recommendation,
1268
01:17:18,652 --> 01:17:20,621
opted for quarantining the area
1269
01:17:20,725 --> 01:17:22,825
instead of calling in
a limited nuclear strike,
1270
01:17:22,930 --> 01:17:24,814
and now we've already
had a breach.
1271
01:17:24,918 --> 01:17:27,553
I just got word of an event
outside the quarantine zone
1272
01:17:27,657 --> 01:17:29,092
that sounds like Andromeda.
1273
01:17:29,196 --> 01:17:31,765
Now I've got that area locked up tight,
but I need to know,
1274
01:17:31,869 --> 01:17:33,264
what have you got to fight this?
1275
01:17:33,368 --> 01:17:35,395
Nothing at this point,
not a single thing.
1276
01:17:35,499 --> 01:17:38,133
Andromeda is completely unlike
anything we have ever seen.
1277
01:17:38,238 --> 01:17:40,693
It would appear to be alien
in its source except...
1278
01:17:40,797 --> 01:17:43,050
except for the material
found along with it,
1279
01:17:43,154 --> 01:17:45,562
which we think might be
a casing or a delivery system.
1280
01:17:45,666 --> 01:17:47,410
It's built from
materials common to earth
1281
01:17:47,514 --> 01:17:50,965
but utilizes a nanotechnology
that so far is only theoretical.
1282
01:17:51,069 --> 01:17:53,489
So what are you saying then?
1283
01:17:53,593 --> 01:17:56,143
Is Andromeda of this
world, or is it alien?
1284
01:17:56,247 --> 01:17:58,132
We can't say, either way,
1285
01:17:58,237 --> 01:18:00,954
but it's extremely unlikely
that Andromeda is the creation
1286
01:18:01,059 --> 01:18:02,860
of any kind of terrestrial power.
1287
01:18:02,964 --> 01:18:04,585
Whatever the source, general, we
need to nuke Piedmont right now.
1288
01:18:04,689 --> 01:18:08,299
I have to say, I agree with Bill.
I think it's still too risky.
1289
01:18:08,404 --> 01:18:10,217
Well, what the hell else can we do?
1290
01:18:22,516 --> 01:18:25,184
Wildfire has effectively ruled
out Andromeda as originating
1291
01:18:25,289 --> 01:18:27,969
with any known enemy -
foreign or domestic.
1292
01:18:28,073 --> 01:18:29,650
Are we under attack or not?
1293
01:18:29,754 --> 01:18:32,838
Absolutely, but from whom or what,
1294
01:18:32,942 --> 01:18:35,729
we can't say with certainty.
1295
01:18:35,832 --> 01:18:38,692
What, you're saying this
is an alien attack, Chuck?
1296
01:18:38,796 --> 01:18:40,751
Yes, sir.
1297
01:18:43,227 --> 01:18:44,657
Wherever Andromeda comes from,
1298
01:18:44,761 --> 01:18:48,110
it dies in Piedmont, understand?
1299
01:18:48,214 --> 01:18:50,136
We're ready when you are,
Mr. President.
1300
01:18:50,240 --> 01:18:54,863
Are the guardsmen
on the ground going to be safe?
1301
01:18:54,968 --> 01:18:56,139
We'll pull back all forward
observation posts 5 miles.
1302
01:18:56,243 --> 01:19:00,111
None of our men will be
in harm's way, Mr. President.
1303
01:19:04,614 --> 01:19:05,481
Very well.
1304
01:19:05,585 --> 01:19:07,902
Do it.
1305
01:19:08,006 --> 01:19:10,031
5 miles from the target,
1306
01:19:10,135 --> 01:19:13,394
I want you to let loose
and climb like hell.
1307
01:19:19,472 --> 01:19:22,140
Theoretically you should be
able to avoid the aftershock,
1308
01:19:22,245 --> 01:19:24,167
But no one's actually dropped
one of these things
1309
01:19:24,271 --> 01:19:25,968
since Nagasaki.
1310
01:19:26,071 --> 01:19:27,815
Blair.
1311
01:19:27,919 --> 01:19:30,244
You may authorize
the launch when ready.
1312
01:19:30,349 --> 01:19:33,880
Yes, sir.
1313
01:19:40,859 --> 01:19:42,885
- It's a go.
- Sir.
1314
01:19:47,838 --> 01:19:49,267
What exactly are we lookin' for?
1315
01:19:49,372 --> 01:19:52,982
Trespassers, little green men,
1316
01:19:53,086 --> 01:19:54,747
who knows.
1317
01:19:54,851 --> 01:19:56,359
Tear it down, fellas.
They're pullin' us back.
1318
01:19:56,463 --> 01:20:00,861
- You got to be kidding me.
- You heard me. Let's go.
1319
01:20:00,965 --> 01:20:02,625
What is that?
1320
01:20:02,730 --> 01:20:06,072
Some kind of eagle, sir.
1321
01:20:07,873 --> 01:20:11,442
It's got somethin' in its claws.
What is that thing?
1322
01:20:11,546 --> 01:20:14,261
Whoa, whoa, you can't
shoot an eagle, sergeant.
1323
01:20:17,329 --> 01:20:19,060
It's a rat.
1324
01:20:19,164 --> 01:20:21,572
He's bombing us with a rat.
1325
01:20:21,676 --> 01:20:24,082
No, way.
1326
01:20:28,135 --> 01:20:29,903
- Oh, my head!
- You all right?
1327
01:20:30,007 --> 01:20:34,213
- What's up, man?
- Oh, it hurts.
1328
01:20:42,767 --> 01:20:44,273
He's dead.
1329
01:20:44,378 --> 01:20:46,299
This isn't happening.
1330
01:20:46,404 --> 01:20:49,488
Oh, man, this isn't happening.
1331
01:20:49,592 --> 01:20:51,063
It's the end of days,
1332
01:20:51,168 --> 01:20:54,629
the mark of the beast.
1333
01:20:54,733 --> 01:20:56,484
Cut that out right now.
The seals are broken!
1334
01:20:56,588 --> 01:20:59,394
Hell in a handbasket,
it's where we're goin'!
1335
01:20:59,498 --> 01:21:01,678
Put your gun down!
1336
01:21:37,022 --> 01:21:41,041
If Mancheck hadn't kept us
in the dark--
1337
01:21:41,146 --> 01:21:42,959
We just ran out of time.
1338
01:21:45,352 --> 01:21:46,556
There are just some things
that don't add up.
1339
01:21:46,660 --> 01:21:51,361
Chou's casing theory
doesn't--doesn't feel right.
1340
01:21:51,465 --> 01:21:54,215
Something's missing, but I--
l just can't put my finger on it.
1341
01:22:32,853 --> 01:22:35,935
# Come home, baby #
1342
01:22:36,039 --> 01:22:38,412
Afternoon, private Carson.
1343
01:22:38,516 --> 01:22:41,825
Jack Nash, NNT. Great job
you fellas are doin'.
1344
01:22:41,929 --> 01:22:43,364
Can I help you?
1345
01:22:43,468 --> 01:22:46,861
Those, uh, Stryker carriers
of yours are really something.
1346
01:22:46,965 --> 01:22:47,962
Are those chemical/biological units?
1347
01:22:48,066 --> 01:22:49,568
Yes, sir, pretty much
top-of-the-line.
1348
01:22:49,672 --> 01:22:54,394
Now what's that bio trace m3 sampler?
1349
01:22:54,499 --> 01:22:57,997
Uh, it's used to collect
biological samples.
1350
01:22:58,101 --> 01:23:00,960
We don't normally travel with
this kind of, uh, equipment.
1351
01:23:01,065 --> 01:23:04,112
Why do you suppose they need
something like that for?
1352
01:23:04,216 --> 01:23:06,396
Uh, why are you here?
1353
01:23:19,453 --> 01:23:21,705
You're approaching a restricted area!
1354
01:23:23,955 --> 01:23:25,757
Stop your vehicle immediately!
1355
01:23:28,317 --> 01:23:30,034
It's a suicide bomber!
1356
01:23:32,961 --> 01:23:35,663
Open fire!
1357
01:24:00,876 --> 01:24:03,769
Charlie, I'm at-- I'm at desert H.Q.
For the guard.
1358
01:24:03,873 --> 01:24:05,026
Some kind of suicide bomber
just attacked.
1359
01:24:05,130 --> 01:24:08,686
I just sent photos.
Also I just found-
1360
01:24:08,789 --> 01:24:10,254
General Michaelson, you ever heard
of freedom of the
1361
01:24:10,359 --> 01:24:11,198
Take Mr. Nash to the stockade.
1362
01:24:11,303 --> 01:24:13,675
- I'm a civilian, general.
- He was illegally on my base,
1363
01:24:13,779 --> 01:24:14,747
Which has just come
under terrorist attack.
1364
01:24:14,851 --> 01:24:17,277
Care to go on the record
about that, general?
1365
01:24:17,381 --> 01:24:19,266
Northcom, this is Alpha One.
1366
01:24:19,370 --> 01:24:21,187
I will enter the release zone
in 30 seconds.
1367
01:24:21,291 --> 01:24:22,904
Roger, Alpha One.
1368
01:24:23,009 --> 01:24:25,570
Arm missile.
1369
01:24:25,674 --> 01:24:27,890
Roger that. Arming missile.
1370
01:24:29,775 --> 01:24:32,393
Missile is armed
and ready to go.
1371
01:24:35,995 --> 01:24:38,747
These are the results
of our growth matrix program
1372
01:24:38,851 --> 01:24:40,723
on Andromeda.
1373
01:24:43,163 --> 01:24:44,066
The particular growth medium
1374
01:24:44,170 --> 01:24:46,956
doesn't seem to be a factor.
1375
01:24:47,060 --> 01:24:49,433
But atmosphere and light are crucial.
1376
01:24:49,537 --> 01:24:51,946
Darkness and infrared inhibit
growth, likewise for oxygen.
1377
01:24:52,050 --> 01:24:53,971
Nitrogen is a wash.
Ultraviolet light stimulates,
1378
01:24:54,076 --> 01:24:55,961
so does carbon dioxide.
1379
01:24:56,065 --> 01:24:57,987
So Andromeda thrives
best in an atmosphere
1380
01:24:58,092 --> 01:24:59,487
of 100% carbon dioxide lit
by ultraviolet light.
1381
01:24:59,591 --> 01:25:04,741
Looks to me almost like
a pure conversion system.
1382
01:25:04,845 --> 01:25:08,413
Computer, post all results
for all closed growth systems.
1383
01:25:10,523 --> 01:25:14,008
You're right. No excretions,
no waste, amazing.
1384
01:25:14,112 --> 01:25:16,447
What effect does radiation have?
1385
01:25:16,551 --> 01:25:20,119
Computer, check all irradiated samples.
1386
01:25:22,229 --> 01:25:25,536
My god, it eats it up.
1387
01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:28,498
Nuking Andromeda is not gonna kill it.
1388
01:25:28,603 --> 01:25:30,700
It'll make it grow exponentially.
1389
01:25:36,554 --> 01:25:39,788
Give me general Mancheck.
This is a code red emergency.
1390
01:25:42,406 --> 01:25:43,758
Entering release zone.
1391
01:25:46,008 --> 01:25:47,965
Dewitt.
Urgent message from Stone.
1392
01:25:48,069 --> 01:25:49,991
Get the president
to shut down that launch.
1393
01:25:50,095 --> 01:25:52,729
Mr. President, message
from Wildfire. We have to abort.
1394
01:25:52,833 --> 01:25:54,718
Hold fire.
1395
01:25:54,822 --> 01:25:57,420
30 seconds to target.
1396
01:25:57,524 --> 01:26:01,022
Mr. President. Dr. Stone,
what do you mean, abort?
1397
01:26:01,127 --> 01:26:03,985
Andromeda eats radiation. If you
nuke it, you won't kill it.
1398
01:26:04,089 --> 01:26:06,875
You will grow it.
Northcom.
1399
01:26:06,979 --> 01:26:08,985
General Blair,
this is president Scott.
1400
01:26:09,089 --> 01:26:11,640
I am ordering you to abort
the mission immediately.
1401
01:26:11,744 --> 01:26:13,628
Stand down, Alpha One.
Do not launch.
1402
01:26:13,733 --> 01:26:15,691
I say again, cancel sequence
and return to base.
1403
01:26:15,795 --> 01:26:17,456
Roger that, northcom.
1404
01:26:17,560 --> 01:26:20,761
This is Alpha One. I am shutting
down the launch sequence.
1405
01:26:32,610 --> 01:26:34,860
Confirming.
Missile is disarmed.
1406
01:26:38,687 --> 01:26:40,625
Oh, thank goodness.
1407
01:26:40,729 --> 01:26:42,740
Wow, that was close.
1408
01:26:53,628 --> 01:26:58,048
Northcom, I am having some kind
of mechanical problem here.
1409
01:27:05,027 --> 01:27:07,883
Northcom, this aircraft
is not responding.
1410
01:27:07,988 --> 01:27:10,705
Northcom, please come in.
I cannot control this craft.
1411
01:27:10,809 --> 01:27:14,187
Oh, my-- there went the visor.
1412
01:27:14,291 --> 01:27:16,042
Northcom, my visor
is disintegrating. The-
1413
01:27:16,146 --> 01:27:19,365
I can't-l can't breathe.
I can't breathe.
1414
01:27:19,469 --> 01:27:21,878
I can't get air.
I- I'm losing control here, sir.
1415
01:27:21,982 --> 01:27:23,937
I cannot get any air.
I need--
1416
01:27:27,539 --> 01:27:29,212
Northcom, please come-
1417
01:27:29,316 --> 01:27:31,816
The missile is rearmed!
1418
01:27:35,193 --> 01:27:36,783
It's disintegrating!
1419
01:27:36,886 --> 01:27:39,295
Its almost falling apart!
1420
01:27:39,400 --> 01:27:42,571
I have to bail out!
1421
