1
00:00:00,229 --> 00:00:02,190
Hi, Mystery Recapped here.
2
00:00:02,190 --> 00:00:06,740
Today, I’m going to explain an American
science fiction thriller film called “The Signal"
3
00:00:07,445 --> 00:00:08,645
Spoilers ahead!
4
00:00:08,645 --> 00:00:10,532
Watch out and take care!
5
00:00:13,209 --> 00:00:18,210
The movie starts as we see a man named Nic,
who suffers from some kind of muscular dystrophy.
6
00:00:18,210 --> 00:00:24,189
Nic is with his girlfriend, Haley, and their
best friend, Jonah, in a car, driving to California.
7
00:00:24,189 --> 00:00:28,720
The boys are dropping off Haley, who is moving
to California for further studies.
8
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,860
The three were all classmates at MIT before
this.
9
00:00:31,860 --> 00:00:34,579
A montage of the trio travelling follows.
10
00:00:34,579 --> 00:00:39,309
They eat at diners, visit aquariums, we also
see Nic jogging to a river that has swiped
11
00:00:39,309 --> 00:00:40,660
away a path.
12
00:00:40,660 --> 00:00:43,410
The trio is staying in a hotel room for the
night.
13
00:00:43,410 --> 00:00:47,989
Nic cannot seem to fall asleep when he suddenly
gets a text from a man named Nomad.
14
00:00:47,989 --> 00:00:52,480
Nomad is an anonymous hacker who has been
texting Nic and Jonah for a long time.
15
00:00:52,480 --> 00:00:57,130
He once hacked into MIT’s server as Nic
and Jonah, and almost got them expelled.
16
00:00:57,130 --> 00:00:59,660
He has been troubling them ever since.
17
00:00:59,660 --> 00:01:04,230
When Nic threatens to expose him for hacking
into MIT, Nomad sends him a live video of
18
00:01:04,230 --> 00:01:07,020
themselves in the exact position they are
in.
19
00:01:07,020 --> 00:01:11,180
He had hacked Haley’s laptop in the background
and is watching them through its webcam.
20
00:01:11,180 --> 00:01:15,830
Nic then takes it upon himself to find Nomad’s
location, and eventually finds out that Nomad
21
00:01:15,830 --> 00:01:18,070
is texting them from Nevada.
22
00:01:18,070 --> 00:01:20,730
They continue the journey from the following
day.
23
00:01:20,730 --> 00:01:24,200
On their way, Jonah receives a picture of
their car from Nomad.
24
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,620
The three are tense about the situation.
25
00:01:26,620 --> 00:01:30,720
Jonah in the backseat actively tries to find
Nomad’s exact location.
26
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,090
They stop at a gas station and Nic gets out
to get them coffee.
27
00:01:34,090 --> 00:01:38,322
Haley takes this opportunity, to ask Jonah
if Nic has said anything about her moving to him.
28
00:01:39,180 --> 00:01:43,280
She knows that her decision to move to California
has bothered Nic, but is worried because he
29
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,290
hasn’t said anything about it yet.
30
00:01:45,290 --> 00:01:49,620
Nic falls and drops the coffee on himself,
while the other two run to help him.
31
00:01:49,620 --> 00:01:53,460
He is embarrassed about his disability, and
it is evident when he walks away to get more
32
00:01:53,460 --> 00:01:55,400
coffee, visibly sad.
33
00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,770
The boys have found Nomad’s location and
figured that he is only 180 miles away from them.
34
00:02:00,770 --> 00:02:04,650
They have decided to pay him a visit on their
way, but when they look around, they see that
35
00:02:04,650 --> 00:02:06,280
Haley is missing.
36
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,690
Nic finds her sitting on a cliff nearby.
37
00:02:08,690 --> 00:02:11,220
The two finally talk about their relationship.
38
00:02:11,220 --> 00:02:15,495
Nic doesn’t want his disability to hold
her back, so he wants to break up before she leaves.
39
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,879
Haley tries to convince him that it will work
out.
40
00:02:18,879 --> 00:02:22,439
When he doesn’t listen, she takes off the
necklace he had given her as a gift and throws
41
00:02:22,439 --> 00:02:23,569
it away.
42
00:02:23,569 --> 00:02:26,450
The trio then makes their way to Nomad’s
location.
43
00:02:26,450 --> 00:02:30,499
They stop at an abandoned house at night,
but they are skeptical about Nomad’s presence
44
00:02:30,499 --> 00:02:33,749
at such a place, but the boys go in to check
anyway.
45
00:02:33,749 --> 00:02:37,610
They look around with their flashlight, but
do not find anything.
46
00:02:37,610 --> 00:02:40,599
Suddenly they hear Haley scream outside and
run to her.
47
00:02:40,599 --> 00:02:44,590
When they get to the car, she is missing and
the car’s radio is glitching.
48
00:02:44,590 --> 00:02:47,189
The guys start to panic and scream her name.
49
00:02:47,189 --> 00:02:51,430
Just then, Nic flashes his light in a direction,
and sees Haley being pulled to the sky by
50
00:02:51,430 --> 00:02:52,650
a weird force.
51
00:02:52,650 --> 00:02:57,900
Frightened, they run towards her, calling
her name, the screen abruptly goes blank.
52
00:02:57,900 --> 00:03:02,450
When Nic wakes up, he is in a hospital-like
facility, wearing only a hospital gown, and
53
00:03:02,450 --> 00:03:03,709
is still hazy.
54
00:03:03,709 --> 00:03:08,030
A man in a white space suit-like attire brings
him to a room in a wheelchair.
55
00:03:08,030 --> 00:03:12,170
Another man in the same attire introduces
himself as Dr. Wallace Damon.
56
00:03:12,170 --> 00:03:16,364
He starts to record their conversation and
asks him about the first time he encountered this signal.
57
00:03:16,980 --> 00:03:19,860
Nic has no idea what he is talking about.
58
00:03:19,860 --> 00:03:24,370
He asks Damon about his friends and why he
is here; Damon replies that Nic and his friends
59
00:03:24,370 --> 00:03:28,720
have come in contact with an EBE, an extraterrestrial
biological entity.
60
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,499
Nic is still clueless as to what he is talking
about, and demands to meet his friends or
61
00:03:32,499 --> 00:03:33,810
call his family.
62
00:03:33,810 --> 00:03:38,310
Damon stops Nic from talking, when he sees
Nic’s nose starting to bleed heavily.
63
00:03:38,310 --> 00:03:41,389
He is then taken back to the room he was kept
in before.
64
00:03:41,389 --> 00:03:45,860
The following day, the facility workers take
him to the same room again; on his way, he
65
00:03:45,860 --> 00:03:49,019
sees the workers cleaning a strange liquid
on the facility’s floor.
66
00:03:49,019 --> 00:03:51,749
Then he sees Haley lying in a room.
67
00:03:51,749 --> 00:03:55,109
He demands the workers take him to her, but
they do not agree.
68
00:03:55,109 --> 00:03:58,930
He is taken to Damon who says that he cannot
meet Haley at the moment and starts asking
69
00:03:58,930 --> 00:04:03,260
him a series of strange questions like if
he has ten toes, and if he is from the earth.
70
00:04:03,260 --> 00:04:07,120
Damon then asks him about “the signals”,
referring to Nomad’s texts.
71
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,569
Finally, he shows him a clip from the night
they were at Nomad’s.
72
00:04:10,569 --> 00:04:14,950
He zooms into an alien figure in the background,
which Nic is surprised to see.
73
00:04:14,950 --> 00:04:19,170
To his horror, Damon reveals that Nomad was
not just some hacker.
74
00:04:19,170 --> 00:04:23,210
Sometime later, Nic is back in his room when
he hears someone whisper to him.
75
00:04:23,210 --> 00:04:26,800
He looks around the room and figures the noise
is coming from a vent.
76
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,070
It is Jonah hiding from the workers, to come
to talk to Nic.
77
00:04:30,070 --> 00:04:33,590
He acknowledges that something is severely
wrong with the people there and fears they
78
00:04:33,590 --> 00:04:36,040
might be performing experiments on them.
79
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,040
The conversation ends abruptly.
80
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:42,170
The following day, Nic is with Damon again,
who this time is performing a shape and color
81
00:04:42,170 --> 00:04:43,460
test on him.
82
00:04:43,460 --> 00:04:47,490
Agitated, Nic solves the test in one go and
demands to see Haley.
83
00:04:47,490 --> 00:04:51,210
Damon agrees and takes him to the room where
Haley lies unconscious.
84
00:04:51,210 --> 00:04:55,460
He claims that she is in a coma and promises,
the second she gains her consciousness, he
85
00:04:55,460 --> 00:04:57,270
will be able to speak to her.
86
00:04:57,270 --> 00:05:01,370
From the next day, Nic starts devising a plan
to escape the facility.
87
00:05:01,370 --> 00:05:05,440
He crushes the cracker given to him as food,
and places it onto the keypad to figure out
88
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,400
the password combination of the entrance door.
89
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,830
When he is back in his room, he puts his plan
into action.
90
00:05:11,830 --> 00:05:14,540
He goes to take Haley and ties her bed to
his wheelchair.
91
00:05:14,540 --> 00:05:19,140
Meanwhile, Damon goes to his room and finds
drawings of the facility all over his bed.
92
00:05:19,140 --> 00:05:21,010
They get to know about his plan.
93
00:05:21,010 --> 00:05:25,622
Nic somehow manages to get himself and Haley
to the exit door, but he cannot reach the keypad.
94
00:05:26,220 --> 00:05:30,190
Nic tries his best and even uses the hospital
tube to press in the keys.
95
00:05:30,190 --> 00:05:33,520
However, Damon catches him before he can.
96
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,620
He wakes up next to Haley, who is still unconscious.
97
00:05:36,620 --> 00:05:39,670
While trying to free from the guards, he falls
off the bed.
98
00:05:39,670 --> 00:05:41,540
The men leave when they see him bleeding.
99
00:05:41,540 --> 00:05:45,980
Then, Nic is horrified to see his legs have
been amputated, and replaced by prostheses
100
00:05:45,980 --> 00:05:47,710
made from alien technology.
101
00:05:47,710 --> 00:05:52,808
Damon, who has been watching him through a
one-way mirror, tells him that it is difficult to explain.
102
00:05:53,460 --> 00:05:58,040
He then sends two workers to get Nic, but
his new legs have superhuman strength.
103
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,260
Using them, Nic sends the door flying.
104
00:06:00,260 --> 00:06:04,130
He drags Haley out with him, as it seems that
he can finally walk now.
105
00:06:04,130 --> 00:06:07,965
As he walks through the hallway with her,
Damon follows them and catches them at the elevator.
106
00:06:08,840 --> 00:06:12,850
He calmly explains to Nic that he will only
be able to help him inside the facility, and
107
00:06:12,850 --> 00:06:15,050
if he goes out, he is on his own.
108
00:06:15,050 --> 00:06:17,610
Nic ignores him and runs away with Haley.
109
00:06:17,610 --> 00:06:21,620
He ends up in a dimly lit hallway and then
in a sewer-like system.
110
00:06:21,620 --> 00:06:26,050
When he finally sees sunlight, he finds himself
in a desert in the middle of nowhere.
111
00:06:26,050 --> 00:06:29,350
Haley finally wakes up, and the two start
to walk away.
112
00:06:29,350 --> 00:06:34,220
After a while, they are delighted to see a
car coming towards them and ask for a ride.
113
00:06:34,220 --> 00:06:37,560
The driver is an old delirious woman named
Mirabelle.
114
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,340
Throughout the journey, she acts strange,
talking to “tiny angels” that she claims
115
00:06:41,340 --> 00:06:42,940
are sent by god.
116
00:06:42,940 --> 00:06:45,080
She drops them off at a gas station.
117
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,250
Nic goes in and tries to use a phone but it
doesn’t work.
118
00:06:48,250 --> 00:06:53,053
He sees his face on the news on the TV, but
just then, Nic sees a red truck take Haley away.
119
00:06:53,674 --> 00:06:57,000
Using his new legs, Nic runs as fast as the
truck.
120
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,780
Haley points a gun she found in the car at
the man trying to kidnap her.
121
00:07:00,780 --> 00:07:03,380
The two throw the man out and drive his truck
away.
122
00:07:03,380 --> 00:07:07,990
Meanwhile, Damon sets a roadblock to look
for the two, and finds Mirabelle.
123
00:07:07,990 --> 00:07:10,290
He asks her to come with him and she agrees.
124
00:07:10,290 --> 00:07:13,820
Damon also carries a mysterious red briefcase
in his hands.
125
00:07:13,820 --> 00:07:18,700
He interrogates her at the facility but strangely,
Mirabelle’s nose starts to bleed like Nic’s did earlier.
126
00:07:19,700 --> 00:07:23,310
Damon brings out a gun from the briefcase
and the screen goes black, implying that he
127
00:07:23,310 --> 00:07:24,900
shot her dead.
128
00:07:24,900 --> 00:07:29,830
Nic and Haley, on the other hand, reach a
dead end and have no clue where they are.
129
00:07:29,830 --> 00:07:33,120
When they drive back, they find an abandoned
visitor centre.
130
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,450
They decide to stay there for the time being.
131
00:07:35,450 --> 00:07:39,150
Inside, Nic tries to use a phone but it doesn’t
work either.
132
00:07:39,150 --> 00:07:43,740
Haley then finds a map of the place, however,
Nic cannot decipher where they are.
133
00:07:43,740 --> 00:07:48,310
Damon and his men continue with their pursuit,
and find Haley’s abductor in his home.
134
00:07:48,310 --> 00:07:52,870
He seems to have gone insane, and talks about
his family sitting beside him when he is alone.
135
00:07:52,870 --> 00:07:56,380
He points a gun at Damon but it doesn’t
work when he tries to shoot him.
136
00:07:56,380 --> 00:08:00,550
Damon then shoots the man dead, covers him
with a blanket, and leaves.
137
00:08:00,550 --> 00:08:04,130
Meanwhile, Nic and Haley hear a noise from
downstairs and hide.
138
00:08:04,130 --> 00:08:08,330
They come across a worker from the facility,
but it turns out that it is Jonah.
139
00:08:08,330 --> 00:08:12,750
The friends finally reunite and share their
experiences, it turns out he also escaped
140
00:08:12,750 --> 00:08:13,750
from the facility.
141
00:08:13,750 --> 00:08:18,350
At night, Nic notices a mark on Haley’s
back and believes that she has been experimented
142
00:08:18,350 --> 00:08:19,580
upon too.
143
00:08:19,580 --> 00:08:23,920
Later Jonah tells him that they might be in
area 51, and we get to see that his arms have
144
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:26,390
been changed into prostheses.
145
00:08:26,390 --> 00:08:30,870
The following day, they drive in search of
an exit, but are caught in a roadblock.
146
00:08:30,870 --> 00:08:34,849
Jonah attacks a guard and fires some rounds
using his gun, while Nic and Haley crouch
147
00:08:34,849 --> 00:08:36,219
down by the truck.
148
00:08:36,219 --> 00:08:38,740
Soon, Jonah is severely wounded.
149
00:08:38,740 --> 00:08:42,078
He tells Nic to take Haley and go while he
distracts the guards.
150
00:08:42,078 --> 00:08:45,380
Nic doesn’t want to leave his best friend
but has no other way.
151
00:08:45,380 --> 00:08:49,529
Jonah uses his new arms to destroy a cylinder
blocking the truck, and the other two run away.
152
00:08:50,529 --> 00:08:54,160
He then punches the ground creating a shock
wave that shakes the guards.
153
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,822
He dies in the encounter, but it all goes
in vain as Nic and Haley are soon caught by Damon.
154
00:08:59,550 --> 00:09:02,589
Their truck hits a spike line on the road
and flips over.
155
00:09:02,589 --> 00:09:05,139
The two come out of it, but are severely injured.
156
00:09:05,139 --> 00:09:08,490
Haley hands Nic the necklace that he thought
she had thrown away.
157
00:09:08,490 --> 00:09:10,769
The guards take Haley away in a chopper.
158
00:09:10,769 --> 00:09:15,926
After she is gone, Nic notices Damon’s name
tag, and figures that his name backwards is Nomad.
159
00:09:16,649 --> 00:09:20,290
Damon comes clean, and says that he has been
Nomad the whole time.
160
00:09:20,290 --> 00:09:24,790
He had brought Nic to them, posing as Nomad
to test alien technology on him.
161
00:09:24,790 --> 00:09:29,234
He then claims that his legs are examples
of a perfect combination of human and alien technology.
162
00:09:30,230 --> 00:09:34,279
Realizing that they were used as mere experiments,
Nic is agitated.
163
00:09:34,279 --> 00:09:37,470
His legs start to glow red, and he runs at
supersonic speed.
164
00:09:37,470 --> 00:09:42,929
After a while, he crashes into an invisible
barrier that leads him to a larger exterior facility.
165
00:09:43,550 --> 00:09:47,390
Damon approaches the hole he has created in
the environment, and takes off his suit to
166
00:09:47,390 --> 00:09:49,290
reveal a robotic head.
167
00:09:49,290 --> 00:09:53,670
As it turns out, he and everyone else in the
facility are a robotic alien species.
168
00:09:53,670 --> 00:09:58,589
Mirabelle and the kidnaper were abducted humans,
who were driven insane because their brains
169
00:09:58,589 --> 00:10:00,970
couldn’t sync with the alien technology.
170
00:10:00,970 --> 00:10:04,160
Since they could not adapt to it, Damon had
to kill them.
171
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,649
When Nic turns around, he sees that he is
on a whole new planet.
172
00:10:07,649 --> 00:10:11,759
The desert was just a simulation to trick
them into thinking they were still on earth.
173
00:10:11,759 --> 00:10:15,930
The camera finally zooms out, and we see that
the planet is highly modernized with several
174
00:10:15,930 --> 00:10:19,420
skyscrapers and has a parabolic sun shield
on the top.
175
00:10:19,420 --> 00:10:23,339
Nic is the only human there, his best friend
is dead and his girlfriend has been taken
176
00:10:23,339 --> 00:10:24,360
away from him.
177
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,006
