(Helicopter blades whir)

(Man on radio)
'Mac, come in. Do you hear me?

'Where are you?'

(Mac) I hear you fine.
We're just buzzing around Manhattan.

What's bugging you?

Radio 'Got a job for you.
lt's urgent.

'You've got a ship,
The Caribbean Lady

'heading towards the Verezzano Bridge.

'lt's not answering our radio caIls.

'Check it out, will you?'

Yeah. Will do.

We're heading for the harbour now.

En route.

Going up.

(Radio) 'Look, haul ass, will you, Mac?

'The old man's called me
six times already.'

We're over Lady Liberty.
What's the background, please?

'You have no background.

'The harbour master spoke
to the captain last night

'and told him to wait for permission
to enter the harbour.

'since then,
we haven't had a word.

'And now they're just heading
right up the straits.'

(Mac) Maybe the radio's busted.

(Radio) 'Maybe.
But the captain knows the rules.

'He should've stopped in the bay.

'lnstead, he's coming in like gangbusters.'

(Mac) Ah, they must've smoked
the stuff they're smuggling.

I'll go wake 'em up.

(Radio) 'Do that.'

There. There's the ship.

(Mac) We got a sighting.
You're right.

She's coming in fast. That's against
every regulation in the book.

The captain's a real turkey.

We're going in for a closer look.
I'lI get back to you.

(Radio) 'Mac, the suspense is killing me.
What do you see?'

There's not a soul in sight.
Really weird.

(Radio) 'No signs of damage or fire?'

(Mac) Nah...nothing.

Whatever happened to the crew,
it was sudden.

(Radio) 'What the hell
do you mean by that?

'What about the Iifeboats?'

(Mac) Well, they're all there. I guess
you'd better send a tug right out.

(Radio) 'Gotcha, Mac. Will do.'

Alert the doctors. Put the ship in
quarantine at an isolated dock.

(Radio) 'Right. We'll follow
standard emergency procedure.'

Understood.

(Radio) 'Tug's on its way.
How much time have we got?'

Hurry up.

Sorry, this is a restricted area.

They told me to come here. I'm Dr
Turner, of the health department.

Ah, right. The lieutenant's
waiting for you over there.

- (Dr Turner) Lieutenant?
- Ah, Doctor.

Thanks for getting here so quickIy.

I'm Lieutenant Arras.
PIeasure to meet you.

So, this is the mysterious vessel.

Right, the Caribbean Lady.

(Arras) A tug caught up
with her in the straits.

Put a man on her
and he shut down the engines.

(Dr Turner) The captain, the crew?

(Arras) There wasn't a souI on board.
Just this weird smelI.

Like something rotting.

(Dr Turner) sounds right out of Conrad.
Where was she coming from?

(Arras) The tropics.
we're checking on it now.

We'll have to make
a hygiene check on the cabins.

Lieutenant, I can't work without
witnesses. You'll be coming with me?

Where's that?

On the vessel!

Well, I'd rather go ice skating
at Rockefeller Center,

but the captain said
I was to take my orders from you,

which doesn't leave me much choice.

Let's get into protective cIothing.
l wanna go home.

The sooner the better.

(Dr Turner) Let's go and see
what this mystery's all about.

(Arras) Lead on, Doc.

(Dr Turner) We might as well split up.

Charlie, you and the officer with you,
stay at the front end of the ship.

We'll check the bridge.

(Arras) Doc, it's like something out
of a movie. It's a ghost ship.

(Dr Turner) This doesn't make any sense.

Didn't you tell me that the captain radioed
in last night that everything was normal?

The whole crew just doesn't
disappear into thin air.

(Arras) Ah, here's the Iogbook.
Let's see what it says.

(Dr Turner) Here we are...
The last entry's dated last night.

It says they're 1 5 days out of home port

and expect to dock in New York
within 24 hours.

Visibility is good,
mild south-easterly wind,

about seven knots,
sea moderately caIm.

No mention of the crew.

And it's signed
by the captain, P...

(Arras) I don't get it.
Where is everybody, then?

(Dr Turner) "signed, Pedro Mendez".

One thing's for sure: whatever happened,
it must've happened all of a sudden.

Otherwise, it'd be written here in the log.

(Arras) Looks like it might be
the officers' mess.

What do you say
we check it out?

(Dr Turner) That's what we're here for.

- (Arras) Me first?
- You first.

(Arras) That's what l thought you'd say.

Well, here goes.

(Arras) There's nobody here, Doc.
Let's try the next one.

(Dr Turner) I think we'd
better take a closer look.

(Arras) We'll be here all night,
at this rate.

(Dr Turner) What the hell
happened to these people?

(Arras) WeIl, from the evidence,
they stopped eating in the middle

of their meal and jumped overboard.

(Dr Turner) Next you'll be saying
it was something they ate.

(Arras chuckles)
Funny, Doc.

I wonder where this door leads to.
shall we try it?

(Dr Turner) That's what we're here for.

- (Arras) You wanna go first?
- (Dr Turner) Come on. Come on, open it.

(Arras) It's stuck.

(Arras shrieks)

(Arras) Ugh...

Judging by his uniform,
that's our friend Mendez. The captain.

(Dr Turner) Yeah, he hasn't
been dead for long either.

The way he was closed in there, it's as if
he was trying to hide from something.

He looks...as if he was...
completely torn apart.

(Arras) Who do you think
couId have done that to him?

I wish I knew, Lieutenant.

But look at the way
his skin and clothes are torn.

It's almost as if... l don't know,
it's almost as if he exploded.

(Arras) E-exploded?

Yeah, but not because of a bomb.

It's more like he exploded from inside.

(Dr Turner) Look at
his stomach and his chest...

It's as if some force inside just let loose.

(Arras) Ugh. Let's search
the rest of the boat. Come on.

Nothing here. This one's empty.

(Arras) What's in here?

(Arras) Hey, Doc. Come here!

(Arras) I've found some more.

(Dr Turner) My God. Look at 'em!

Completely torn apart!

(Man #3) I'll tell you one thing, Lieutenant:

No disease or virus can reduce a man
to this state in such a short time.

I mean, according to the logbook,
up until last night,

everything on board was normal, right?

(Arras) Harvey,
call headquarters and teIl them

we may have an epidemic
on our hands, and hurry!

Yes, sir.

(Arras) You see that?
He's just like the other two.

(Dr Turner) Harris was right.

This wasn't caused by any virus,
that's for damned sure.

(Arras) What the heIl
couId it have been, then? l mean...

...down beIow...and, man, it's really weird.

It looks like
they bIew up or something.

(Man) He's right, Lieutenant.
And there's this trail of green gunk

that leads into the hold.

- (Arras) Green gunk?
- (Man) sure.

We didn't want to follow it
without telling you first.

- (Arras) ls the door open?
- (Man) sure.

(Arrras) Let's go and have a look, then.

(Arras) This hold's full of coffee.

(Dr Turner) "UNIVERX".

Strange name for Colombian coffee.

What do you think, Lieutenant?

(Arras) What do I know from coffee?
l never drink the stuff.

What is strange is this "X".

It's a different Iettering.

(Dr Turner) Doesn't seem strange to me.
lt's probably just a trademark.

(Arras) Of course.
(ChuckIes)

This place gives me the creeps.

(Dr Turner) Right. What about
those 20 bodies upstairs?

(Arras) Let's go. Whatever kilIed
those men, it certainly wasn't coffee.

(Dr Turner) Hey, wait a minute.

What's that over there?

That's not coffee.

- (Arras) What are they, Doc?
- l don't know.

But whatever they are,
they came out of this case of coffee.

(Arras) Do you think the rest of these
cases are filled with those things?

You won't know until you look,
but at last we've found something,

besides the missing crew,
that doesn't add up.

Well, what do you think they are, Doc?

(Dr Turner) They could be
something like, er...

Like a giant squash or...avocado or...
or some kind of mango.

They look Iike big green eggs to me.

(Man) Doc,
there's one over there, look.

- (Dr Turner) Where
- (Man #5) Under the pipes.

(Man #5) It's bigger than the other ones.

And it's pulsating.
As if it had a heartbeat.

(Dr Turner) They're hot.

Most likely these pipes
carry steam or hot water.

I'm only making a guess, of course,

but heat must have
an effect on these things,

causing them to ripen.

That would explain
why the others are stilI green...

and smaller.

(Man #5) Hey, like in a hothouse.

Think these have anything to do
with those guys being killed, huh?

I really don't know. We'd have
to examine them in a lab to be sure.

I'll go get you one.

(Dr Turner) Don't touch them!
It could be dangerous!

(Man #5) Hey, don't worry.

(Man #5 shrieks)

(Groans and gasps)

(Explodes, rasps)

(Choking)

(Continues to choke)

...and as soon as I was informed, I gave
orders to totally isolate the pier

and place it under
absolute maximum security.

Good. Put emergency plan
number seven into effect.

Was General Hazon informed?

Yes, and a group of experts
is already airborne.

They should be here in a couple of hours.

What about the man who survived?

I believe he's just about
to be reIeased from decontamination.

He identifies himself as Lieutenant Arras
of the police department.

He's the one who informed us.

- (Woman) I see.
- After you, ma'am.

Have all decontamination
procedures been completed?

Another five minutes, ma'am.

Colonel, he's undergone
all the necessary preliminaries.

At this point, he shouldn't have any
abnormal or active microorganisms

on his body.

Right. If the type we're dealing with is
something we already know about.

I don't know what l'm doing
in this stinking place,

but I swear that when l get outta here,

you're all gonna pay
for the way you're treating me!

(Woman) Control yourself.

You can hear me?

You can hear me!

You have the nerve to come in here
and telI me to control myself!

They've been giving me a smoke cure.

Wearing me out,
washing me down for six hours.

Then they leave me here
to freeze my balls off!

And now you come in and dare
to tell me to keep myself controlled, baby?

Don't call me "baby", young man.

And you don't call me
a "young man", babe.

It might not show right now,
but I'm a police Iieutenant. Got that?

And l'm a coloneI. Internal security,
responsible directly to the president.

Special Division Five.

Any other comments, Lieutenant?

(Stammers)

No, sir. Er...

No, ma'am.

At ease, Lieutenant.

Yes, ma'am. l'm sorry.

There is no reason
for you to salute me.

Thank you.

As of this moment, I am in complete
charge of the Caribbean Lady case.

Now, exactly what did you see on board?

You talked about eggs.

Is that correct?

Er, well...

As a matter of fact,
they did look like eggs.

But the size of pumpkins.

Kinda like footballs, and...
there were all these cases...

with 'UNIVERX' written
on the side of them, hundreds of 'em.

- The whole of the ship's cargo?
- Yes, sir. Er, yes, ma'am.

I think so, I...

One of the cases
had dropped to the ground

and one of the eggs had rolIed
just under a large pipe.

And then...

Well, it was ripening.

What do you mean?

Well, it was different
from the others. It was...

Well, it was almost like...alive.

It wasn't as green, and...

and that was the one which sprayed all its
substance on the poor doctor,

and made him alI...

(Colonel) I need one
of those eggs immediately.

But we'Il have to be
very careful how we do it.

Call in the special section: Squad Two.

- Hey, you're going to freeze it?
- Yes.

(Colonel) And the whole cargo with it.

l don't know what...
what kind of organism we're deaIing with,

but, er...

whatever substance
there is in these eggs

will be neutralised by deep freezing.

Then, we'll...we'll see.

Yes, well,
I'll take care of that immediately.

Hey... Er...

Talking about deep freezing,
can l have my clothes?

For security reasons,
your personal effects were destroyed.

You'lI be issued an overaIl.

Overalls? Overalls?

What about my credit cards? My Gucci
watchstrap? My waIlet? My badge?

My badge? l gotta pay...
(Colonel mutes sound)

Make sure he gets dressed and give
him a room in the officers' quarters.

(StiIl muted)

(Man) There. That must be
the thing that killed those men.

(Colonel) Macmillan.

(Macmillan) The tongs, ma'am.

(Colonel) Young, you do it.

(Woman) The first examinations
all show the same results.

This is not an egg

but an intensive cuIture
of unknown bacteria.

Pathogenous, perhaps,
but definitely deadly.

- Artificial?
- l stilI don't know.

But what we might define
as the egg's yolk

is a preset materialization culture.

It reacts to heat.
When the temperature is raised,

it undergoes a cell mutation
and becomes deadly.

- How?
- Come over here.

(Woman) Now watch.

(Woman) As you can see,
I am extracting a sample of the substance

from the interior of the egg.

What is that stuff?

That stuff's what caused
those deaths, right?

(Woman) Right. It's 1 00% active.

Now watch.

(Woman) I am now going to inject
some of the fluid into this white rat.

(Rat squeals)

(Squealing intensifies)

(Woman) Now all we have to do is wait.

It takes effect almost immediately.

(Young) My God.

(Arras) I saw it happen to human beings.

It was horrible.

Do you have any idea...

why and how this happens?

I need more time for tests.

If you need any help,
there's no problem.

The Defense Department
can open any door.

I could use Hilton,
at the University of Michigan.

He's the top expert on
artificial bacterial culture and mutations.

We can get him here in three hours.

Put the wheels in motion, Young.

I'll see what I can do.

(Arras) I feel responsible.

If l had only notified you
when that ship was being towed in...

there wouId've been...
three deaths less.

and you would've had
more time to investigate.

I don't think it was your job
to notify me, Lieutenant.

- Can I go?
- No. You stay here.

What else can I do?

Don't sell yourself short.
You're not going home. l need you.

Well, if l'm reaIly that necessary...

Of course, I could get much better
collaborators than you.

But...you've been involved
in this since the very beginning

and l'm sure you'lI understand,
it has to be kept absoIutely secret.

Is that clear?

Yes. I'm afraid so, yes...

Where do we start?

First, we have to find out who was
supposed to receive this lethal cargo.

l've already checked it out.
It's an import-export company.

No offices. Just a warehouse
in the Bronx.

Oh, my God, call it intuition: I think they
planned to put them in the sewers.

- sewers?
- Yes, sewers.

They're just as warm, damp, and
comfortabIe as an enormous incubator.

Imagine a hundred of those eggs
scattered in the New York sewers.

It would blow up the city in one night!

Wait a minute. The ship wasn't
to unIoad until tomorrow morning.

Right. Whoever's receiving
this cargo may not know yet.

We might still catch them by surprise.

(Colonel) Da silva.

You go first.

Open up!

There's somebody in there. I'm sure of it.

It's probably a...a watchman.

(Da silva continues to knock)

What's all the racket?
Who is it?

(Da silva) Open up. We have a
warrant to search these premises.

OK....OK, OK.

(Gunshot)

(Gasps) Young!

Fire!

Drop your guns!

(Arras) You're surrounded.
There's no way out.

Keep moving!

(Explosion)

(Yelps)

(BIood-curdling shrieks)

(Choking, gurgling)

(Colonel) No. You stay here.

(Colonel) Call in the flamethrowers.

Flamethrowers? Why?

It's the best way to destroy all those eggs.

I want you to burn everything.

(Arras) First you freeze
the ones on the ship,

now you're burning these.

You don't beIieve
in half measures, do you?

I'm only doing my job. You must know by
now that national security is at stake.

And possibly even more than that.

(Woman) since I last saw you, Dr Hilton
and l have successfully analysed

the yoIk of the egg.

There.

These are segmented dodecahedric cells.

You know, they never showed us
anything like that, back in school.

In fact, they don't exist in nature.

Not in our nature.

Nor in the mutations we have been
able to achieve, up till now.

(Dr Hilton) The cells of
the eggs in question

have structures based on silicon,

whereas all Earth organisms
have cells that are based on carbon.

Earth organisms?

I don't beIieve these belong to our planet.

Do you mean...
they come from outer space?

(Dr Hilton) Why not?

How many worlds
are there in the universe?

Millions. Perhaps billions.

True, they're millions of light years away.

But perhaps a form of life like this doesn't
have the same concept of time as we do.

It stays inactive.

Passive. As long as it's in the absolute
freezing temperature of sidereal space.

Then, once it falIs into
an atmosphere like ours,

the seeds germinate
and the eggs grow.

If you're talking about
cells wandering in infinity,

they have one chance in
several billion of falIing on our planet.

That's practically impossible. Unless...

Unless they come...

from much closer, but...

Of course!

Of course. Try to imagine it had all
happened, not because...

the seeds to create
the eggs came to us,

but because we went to them.

A man could quite easily
have brought the seeds here.

But a man would never
do anything like that.

Well, those Bronx warehouse guards
might have been crazy, subjugated,

but they were men.

(Arras) They're not even astronauts!

They couIdn't have gone into space and
come back without anybody knowing.

But we have known about it.
We've always known about it.

Don't you remember?
The Mars mission.

Hubbard, the English astronaut
in the international project

which first investigated the red planet,

came back to Earth a little crazy.

He said strange things had
happened at the Martian Pole.

But the other astronaut, Hamilton,
said that Hubbard dreamt it up.

Do you remember
what else Hubbard said?

He spoke of...

My God, now I remember!

He talked about eggs.

Eggs. OvaI...longish...eggs.

Eggs like footballs.

Like that one over there.

I believe Hubbard was not as crazy as
we all thought he was. Me included.

Now...we have to find Hubbard
as quickly as possible.

Are you sure this is the house?

Yes. This is the last address
we have in our police files.

I'd rather go up alone.
You wait for me here.

- All right. If you need me, just whistle.
- OK.

(Man) Why did she want to go up alone?

WelI, Colonel Holmes was on the
committee that interrogated Hubbard

after his space trip.

And, er... Well, she was the one who
actually suggested that he was crazy.

Maybe she just feels responsible.

(Laughs) Almost a human reaction.

(Presses buzzer)

(Buzzer)

(Knocks beer can)

We've met before, Commander Hubbard.

I'm stella Holmes.

Colonel Holmes.

Special Division Five.

You're exactly what I need.

Well, what do you want with me? Haven't
you put me through enough already?

- Oh, shut up, Hubbard. That's enough.
- You goddamn...

Your bitterness is quite understandable.

Considering l was on one of the
commissions that interrogated you.

Interrogated?

You mean "judged and convicted",
don't you?

Kicked out of the service like some...

some crazy, lying visionary.

Well, what are you doing here anyway?

IdIe curiosity?

Well, come on, Colonel.
What is it you want to know?

How many times a week l screw?

If you're always in this condition,
it's quite obvious you couldn't get it up,

even if you used a crane.

- What do you want?
- lnformation. And we need it immediately.

Because time is of the essence.
This is a very serious matter.

Here.

Do you recognise these?

Why are you bothering to torment me?

I thought this case was
over and done with long ago.

It's closed!

These are your drawings. This is
what you claim you saw on Mars.

Right?

Why don't you just leave me alone?

I never saw anything.

I don't know what Mars is
and I was never there.

I know what you went through.

Shame, dishonour...

Everybody was against you and treated
you Iike you were a halIucinating madman.

And you were with them.

Right in the front row.

Yes, I remember you, Dr Holmes.

I remember you really well.

With your...ironic,
head-of-the-class attitude.

Always so sure of yourself.

- Always so goddamn...
- Presumptuous and idiotic.

You're right...

Now I know.

You were...telling the truth.

AlI along.

Does this resemble what you saw?

But...

(Hubbard) But these are photographs!

But there hasn't been
another expedition to Mars.

No...

These were found here. On Earth.
Thousands of them.

- Here?
- Yes. In the United States.

We found them by chance.

And burned them.

But...how many of them are left, where,
exactly what they are, we don't know.

Hubbard, you're
the only one who can heIp us.

You said you saw them on Mars.

You do remember, don't you?

It was all...

It was all such a long time ago.

What happened on Mars two years ago?

You knew our mission.

(Hubbard) 'When we reached Mars,
we landed at the poIar ice cap.

'Hamilton and I decided to look around,

'and after a whiIe, we...

'we came to a...an opening.

'A cave, in a mountain of ice.'

And...and then...

- We...
- What happened after that?

It's...it's confused. It's...

It's difficult to remember.

- (Holmes) 'Come on...
- 'We went into the cave and...

'it was dark and...strangely humid and...

'it was there we saw the eggs.

'God, there were so many.

'They were green.
Just like the one in your photograph.

'And, then...from the back of the cave,

'we heard a noise,

'as if something was approaching.

'something ominous.

'And it radiated a Iight.

'As it moved towards us,

'it was slowly filling the cave

'with this...blinding, hypnotic light.

'As it came towards us I...

'looked at Hamilton and...

'his eyes...

'He...he was beginning...

'Hamilton was beginning to...

(Screams) 'Hamilton!'

(Man) 'Mars has always
stimulated man's imagination.

'It is a common belief that if there
was other life in our solar system,

'that it would be on Mars.

'H.G. Wells imagined Martians
as flying monsters,

'which invaded Earth.

'Others have pictured them
as little green men.

'But as far as that cave was concerned,

'there was absolutely nothing in there.

'No life forms.

'Only rock and ice,
like everything else we found up there.

'Therefore...

'I'm sorry to contradict
my colIeague Hubbard.

'Our mission...

'Our mission was almost
beyond human limits.

'l came close to a nervous breakdown too.
More than once.

'l was...

'l was just luckier than my poor friend.
That's all.'

(Holmes) Son of a bitch.
He even convinced me.

Now we know that Hamilton Iied.

(Man #2) But I don't understand.

If he did see those eggs,
why didn't he confirm it?

I think it's best we question Hamilton.

Er...we would if we could.

I only wish it was possible, but l...

I don't have the gift
of bringing corpses back to life.

Hamilton died six months ago.

What?

Yes. His private airplane crashed
off the coast of Florida.

In that case, Colonel, what the
hell does that leave us with, then?

Hubbard?

You saw the state he's in.

And we know now
he actually saw the eggs.

Only, l have the feeIing we have to take
this investigation in another direction.

What are you gonna do?

Well, I have one plan.

If I can get the Pentagon to...
to give me the authorisation.

Call the airport.
Reserve three seats on the first flight.

Tourist class. We're
like regular passengers.

Invent three names
and have three passports ready.

Got it.

Washington okay it?

(Holmes) Yes. But with strings, as usuaI.

They gave me 72 hours to solve the case.

Then they'll blow the whistle
with a general alarm

and call a special session
of the Security Council.

That means that the...

people who have the eggs
will have plenty of time to...

- ...find another nest.
- Right.

We've got to get to them first.
Luckily, we already have one lead.

You mean, er...the coffee company
in south America?

- Very good.
- (He chuckles)

Well, I'm glad to know that
you're not such an idiot, after all...

...since I've decided
to take you along with me...

Hmm...

(Sarcastically) lt's great to hear
your superior's appreciation. Really.

We're leaving right away.
Go get ready.

Oh, no problem.

I travel light.

Go up and your hairbrush. OK?

Oh, I get it...

You two would prefer to be, er...alone.

See ya later.

And, oh...have fun.

What about you?

Do you want to come?

Mmm...I dropped out a long time ago.

Didn't you put your signature
on my discharge too?

I've already had you reinstated in full.

Doesn't that salve the wound?

Oh, I don't give a damn!

What do you want from me?

With all my dipIomas
and official recommendations,

I'm still a wreck.

OK.

Then you can just go stew in your own
juice. Wallow in self-pity.

But I thought that...

under that wreck there was still a man.

A man who had the guts to go to Mars.

A man who fought to the end
for what he believed was right.

A man who could help us save this frail
planet from a fate worse than death.

But that man remained
on the glaciers of Mars

and this whiskey-soaked wreck
is just empty...

- lf you were a man, I'd...
- What would you do? Nothing.

You'd do nothing, Hubbard, because
you're incapable of doing anything.

You're too soft. You're half a man.

That's just so that
we understand one another.

Yes...

I believe we do understand one another.

Now...

what about that little trip
to south America?

(Drums beat)

(Indistinguishable cheering)

(Man shouts in spanish)

They've arrived.
They're at the Grand HoteI.

In three separate rooms.

On the second floor.

(Man) l don't know who the guy in the
middle is, but he Iooks like a cop.

The woman is stella Holmes.
A first-class mind.

Too bad.

And then...

Well, what do you know?
My old friend Hubbard,

the last survivor of the Mars expedition.

He's the only one
we haven't gotten, up to now.

But his turn wiIl come.

What do you intend to do?

Don't worry, dear.

They haven't found anything out yet.

We're running this game.

They're on our territory, so let's start
by sending a little welcoming gift.

Miss Holmes is first.

(Holmes) This is the location
of the coffee factory.

lf this is their headquarters,
the egg plantation should be

somewhere in this area.

Well, if they are there,
I'll find them.

Right. You fly over the area
tomorrow morning.

Arras and I will inspect the coffee factory.

But don't take anything for granted.

Remember, we're dealing
with something from beyond our planet.

And we've already lost
a whole day, travelling.

Well, we can make up for it tomorrow.

Well, we're in big trouble if we don't,

and the rest of humanity along with us.

Well, this particuIar piece of humanity
is gonna be in trouble

if it doesn't get something to eat
pretty soon.

- Let's say in haIf an hour.
- (Arras) Why not now?

I want to change and wash before.

Jesus Christ.
The whole world is gonna be wiped out

and all this broad's worried about
is getting changed!

Listen, Arras.
If I have to die with the rest of the world,

then I want to have a proper dress on
and clean underwear.

Hmm...

I think what the coloneI's trying to telI you

is that there are some peopIe who travel
with more than just a comb

and a pair of pyjamas.

But...I don't wear pyjamas!

Out! I want to have a shower.

Out!

Both of you!

What a waste of a good-looking woman.

Is something wrong with her
or is she just, erm, married?

Yeah. To a test tube and a whip.

You know, I don't think the colonel
would've been out of pIace

in that snow cave on Mars.

You know, alI women are alike.

AlI over the world.

It's just a question
of handling them properly.

Now, l treat all women gentIy.

(Chuckles) Don't worry.
I have no intention of trying.

I'm, er, warm-blooded.
I don't like the coId.

Well, I'Il see you at dinner.

In half an hour. Good.

Bye!

I thought you didn't like the coId...

Hey, you were right.
I'd better turn off the air conditioner.

That's not the only thing
you should turn off.

OK, OK.

- l'll come and get you when l'm ready.
- Right.

(Door is closed)

Hey! Who's there?

(Lock clicks)

(Gasps)

Oh, my God!

(Moans)

Help!

- (Muffled knocking)
- (Holmes) Help!

Help!

(Salsa playing on radio)

Hello?

Erm...

Could you give me the number
of the local airport, please?

Help!

Ah, yes. Operator? Please...

Miss Stella Holmes, Room 227.

Thank you.

- (Phone rings)
- (Knocking on wall)

(Holmes screams) HeIp!

- Help!
- (Phone rings)

Get me out of here!

There's an egg!

Hubbard!

(Phone rings)

(Female operator)
I'm sorry, sir. That room does not answer.

Well, it doesn't matter.
All right. Thank you.

(Sobs)

- Ready?
- Yes. I was just waiting for you.

(Arras whistles)

Are we going to eat here, in the hotel?
Or do you think we'll go somewhere else?

Well, I expect it wiIl be
exactly what the colonel decides.

Weren't we supposed to meet her here?

Oh, come on, we'lI eat by ourselves.

- Yeah, but she...
- No, no, no. Come on, Casanova.

she can order something
for herself on room service.

What? An ice cream?

lt's not her styIe
not to keep an appointment.

Yes, when I put up a "Do Not Disturb" sign,

I usually intend to do more serious things
than just take a shower.

What's the matter, huh?

I'm not sure, but...

Maybe we had better knock.

Hey, come on. What if she's sleeping?

Don't worry.

I'll take the bIame.

(Holmes) Help!

HeIp!
(Knocking)

Get me out of here!

There's an egg!

(Holmes) Hubbard...

Help!
(Bangs on door)

Get me out of here!

Just a little.

Bon appétit.

Thank you.

- This is a local specialty.
- Oh?

I had them make it up
as a treat for you.

To celebrate the unfortunate demise
of Miss Holmes.

(Gasps)

What's wrong?

The egg...

The egg!

But...

What happened to the egg?

I can feel it inside me,
like before.

Another one of our creatures
has been sacrificed.

It was completely useless.

That woman is stiIl alive!

But...that's impossible!

I know she is!

I can feel her.

She's alive.

The egg failed to kill her!

Out! Everyone out! Leave me alone!

You too! Out!

This place is so goddamn sinister.

I feel like...

somebody is scratching my head,
but from the inside.

That could mean we're on the right track.

Yeah...

It could also mean that we're heading
straight into a goddamn trap.

(Holmes) Would you feel any safer if we
had the whole Marine Corps to help us?

What you don't understand, Colonel,
is that I'm no hero.

Just your average Brooklyn cop.

(Arras) HeIlo. We're the ones who
phoned earlier. Are you Mr Gomez?

No, señor. Mr Gomez is over there.

Hey, Mr Gomez. These are the Americans
who called you about the coffee.

This is Mr Gomez.

Hi. Name's Arras. Pleased to meet you.

- (Holmes) Hello, Mr Gomez.
- (Arras) Where do we go? Inside?

(Gomez) Right this way.

As you can see, we use
the most modern equipment.

And now...the plant is separated
into several departments,

Each with its own responsibility.

You know, in here is where we toast
the coffee to different degrees,

according to where we export it.

And what is this?

Why this is a toasting oven.
Three tons at a time.

Imagine that.

You know, three tons of coffee
can make a lot of people very nervous.

Er...señora...

This gentIeman and lady would Iike
information about our coffee.

Yes. I was waiting for them.
You can go.

I'm Perla de la Cruz, the owner.
How can I be of help?

Oh, yes. We would Iike to buy
a large amount of your coffee.

You know...somebody told us that here
you toast a very special brand of coffee.

Yes. A very, very speciaI kind.

You just sent some to New York.

On a cargo ship called
the Caribbean Lady.

- Yes.
- Really?

Yes.

Doesn't that name mean anything to you?

FrankIy, no. We send shipments
all over the world.

However, if you wouId like to see the
various kinds of coffee we produce,

pIease follow me.

- AIl right...
- Then you can choose the one you Iike.

Great idea.

(Engine falters)

(FaItering stops)

(Engine falters again)

We have a complete
production operation here.

From picking to packaging.

IncIuding instant and decaffeinated coffee.

Everything is controlled by computers.

Each unit is vacuum-packed and contains
exactly two hundred grams.

This way, please.

This where the bulk coffee
is unloaded and stored before processing.

We have our own
coffee plantation nearby.

Fascinating, isn't it?

And now...we have arrived.

Arrived? What does that mean?

AlI your questions will be answered here.

Now it's clear who cultivates those eggs.
It's you, isn't it?

Yes.

But I'm not alone.

(Man) l'm the head of the operation.

Hamilton!

Alive!

It's pity you won't be able to teIl anyone.

One map...

and one...

...flare pistol.

Arras...

Yes, Colonel HoImes.

You can call me SteIla.

Thanks.

- My name is Tony.
- OK.

Well, Tony...

If you had listened
to your good old cop instinct,

instead of my MIT-educated calcuIations...

(He chuckIes)

I told you I felt something scratching
inside my head, from the inside.

EsP. I'm the perfect subject.

Maybe it's because
I'm not too smart. Hm?

(She chuckles)

You know something?
Now I can teIl you.

You've aIways made me
feel like a caveman.

You're the first woman I ever went after

that I couldn't get past the first base with.

I'm sorry.

Well, imagine how l feel.

Turn around a little bit.

That wasn't much, I know.

It's the most fantastic thing...

that's ever happened
to me in my whole life.

Who did this?

White zom...

...zom...

White...

zom...zombies!

(Gasps)

(Hubbard) White zombies?

(Man shouts)

(Man) Come on! Follow me!

(Man) Come on. Hurry up!

Section A, take this cluster here.

Section B, only pick the ones
that are ripe.

White zombies.

(Masked man) Hurry up! Hurry up!

Move it!

Pick those ones there.

Get up.

It's time for you to come.

Where?

To the Cyclops.

Cyclops?

Yes.

The Cyclops.

Hey, you!

What are you doing?
You were assigned to ride in front.

Come on, come on, get in.
We're leaving.

(Engine revs)

Hundreds more are being picked
right now.

Everything wilI be ready in a few days.

Then the eggs will be shipped,
sent around the whole world.

There won't be any mistakes this time.
No one will stop us.

What's the reason behind all this,
Hamilton? It doesn't make sense.

What's the purpose
behind any living being?

To grow. To multipIy. survive.

Eat in order not to be eaten.
Kill in order not to be killed.

The strongest creature
shall crush the weakest.

That's the purpose of this.

- You're not talking like a human being.
- He's not a human being.

He was once, but...he's not any longer.

You can't understand me.

A superior being speaks through me.

lt can wipe you out with
the mere power of its mind.

No, not so superior. You were wiped out,
Hamilton. Hubbard wasn't.

His mind resisted on Mars,
and he can do it again.

Here. And crush you and your damn
master, whoever that monster is.

He might have done it again.

But his mind no longer exists,
Colonel Holmes.

All we had to do
was crash his small plane.

Hubbard is dead.

Dead?

- (Perla) Did everything go aIl right?
- (Man) Yes.

We collected 240 eggs.

Excellent. Let me see the checkIist.

(Hamilton) lt is my master
who creates the eggs.

He grew out of a tiny seed
that I brought back from Mars.

He creates the eggs and then
the heat develops them to maturity.

Go on...

He's caIling you.

He wants you. Go!

Tony...

Tony... Arras... No!

- shut up!
- Let me go!

- lt's useless.
- Tony!

Tony, no!

Resist it!

Tony, no!

- shut up!
- No!

You can't do anything.

Stop!

Tony! Help!

(Cyclops roars and squelches)

Do not resist.

(Footsteps)

(Perla gasps)

Hubbard!

So, you know who I am.

Then you also know
that I've got nothing to lose.

Now, where do you incubate those eggs?

It's too late.

Hamilton has got your friends.

Hamilton?

Yes...

your old friend Hamilton.

Where are they?

Where?

In the forbidden room.

Take me there

(Roars)

(Screams)

(Holmes) No!

Tony!

(Cyclops grunts)

No!

Oh, God...

Look.

Look!

(Cyclops groans menacingly)

Go to it.

It's your turn.

One word out of you and you're dead.

(Cyclops groans)

He's a spy! KilI him!

(Groans)

(Hubbard) stop!

Hamilton! Watch out!

You shoot and you'll get her!

(Groans)

No, Hamilton. Don't shoot.

Don't do what the Cyclops wants!

Don't shoot! No!

(Roars)

SteIla!

Damn you!

A squad over there. C Squad go
to the front. B squad in the rear.

(Cyclops groans)

We're safe now. It's finished.

Come on.

(Hamilton) Hubbard!

(Gasps)

(Strangled cry)

(Shrieks)

OK, let's go. Out.

Move along, move along.

It wasn't his fault.

Hamilton.

No, the man you met,
he was just an extension of that monster.

Completely under its power from the
moment that they first met one another

in that Martian cave.

So much so that they both died
at the same time.

But the real Hamilton...

He never returned to Earth.

Yes, he's stiIl up there...

On Mars,

the Cyclops star.

From now on, it'll be difficult
to look at the sky...

...without thinking that...
maybe somewhere...

up there...

there's something waiting.
