Help us!

Please, my boyfriend's hurt bad!

Help us, he's bleeding!

Help us!

What should we do?

Help us, please!

He's dying!

Hey, we gotta help.

I tell you, hey, go with this thing, Inspector Calvin.

It's going to be five times the escort.

The Major's dead. This was a covert operation.

Covert or not, it was too weak.

The Major got it right, okay?

Are we ready?

It's working. All clear.

Let's go.

Okay, let's go.

Jack, that's U .S. Army blood we just kicked up.

Better be for good reason, Calvin. You bet.

All right, let's open her up.

Hey, wait a minute, Lee.

Major said we should wait for him. Yeah, well, I put my ass on the line here. He

didn't. I want to know what for.

Wait a sec.

Back off, Ben.

You.

Ben, you all right?

Open.

Let's see what we got here, boy.

There is nothing wrong with your television.

Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We are now controlling the transmission.

We control the horizontal and the vertical. We can dilute you with a

channels or expand one single image to crystal clarity and beyond.

We can shape your vision to anything our imagination can conceive.

And for the next hour, we will show all that you see and hear.

You are about to experience the odd and mystery which reaches from the deepest

inner mind to the outer limits.

Please stand by.

On the long road between cradle and grave, we travel alone.

It is not the blind and random circumstances of our birth which

quality of our journey.

That is decided by the choices made along the way.

So what is this?

What is this?

You're asking me? I'm telling you, man, the manifest said stingers. I thought

myself I was 100%. Yeah, we all thought, Lee.

Bound for a Russian port, right? Does this look like a load of anti -aircraft

missiles to you, does it? Why don't you just shut up? Why don't you make me?

Hey, hey, hey, look. The major said that it was going to be cover -ups. The

major got it wrong.

All that crap about...

exposing some government conspiracy to keep the Russian president in power.

That's all true, and you know it. Look, don't be drilling me on that again. No,

groups like us are the people's last line of defense, mate. I think that was

joke. What are you talking about?

Why don't you shut up? Why don't you tell me if you're the real militia what

hell you need me for? Somebody shut this guy up right now. I don't even know how

I let you talk me into this. Because you're my brother, man.

Who cares?

Take a look. That's what we fight a U .S. military for, Calvin. What is it?

I don't know. But they certainly were protecting her, weren't they?

Sometimes I don't know who's more stupid, you or me.

It's in the box.

Diggers would fit in here, wouldn't they?

Don't! I swear,

if you don't move back right now... Go ahead.

Don't think I won't do it.

And if you do, her buddies here will take you out one second later.

Lower the weapon and you won't get hurt. Got my word.

I can't do that.

What's your name, Captain?

Washington. Terry, U .S. Army.

You are an illicit possession of... We're way past that now, Captain

Put down the weapon.

I told you I can't do that. I got a shot. Take it around.

Pass!

Consider yourself a prisoner letting it on, Captain.

All right, easy enough.

Have some respect for the uniform.

What's in it?

Fingers, right?

It's classified.

Classified? Are you kidding me?

Why would they keep them cold?

They wouldn't.

What's in the box, Captain? You need to let me call in for help before the

cooling system breaks.

Hey, you idiot!

Okay, now it's broken. What is wrong with you? You people don't know what

dealing with. This is dangerous.

Dangerous how?

It's radioactive material.

I don't buy it.

Well, you're going to find out if you don't let me call for help.

What are we going to do with him, Lee?

Tie her up.

Let's get the hell out of here.

This whole thing's a bust.

She can ID us here. Oh, you want to go back to jail?

The materials in that box are dangerous. We're going to wait for the major to

decide this.

Yeah, that's right. That's right. It'll be a hurting man.

Listen, soldier, the cooling mechanism is damaged.

That means you only have a few minutes. For what?

Listen, Captain, I'm already into this up to my ass.

I'm going to find out what's going on here.

You open that box, you're dead.

Your ex -army?

Yes, ma 'am.

Purple Heart, I bet.

Yes, ma 'am.

Mercenary?

Why are you doing this?

I could ask you the same question.

Whatever weapons you got in that box, you're sending them to Russia by

freighter. It isn't a weapon.

I saw the travel orders.

The Russians are the only ones with a crown. They're the enemy.

They used to be the enemy.

It will be.

You don't believe that?

Maybe I do.

You're smarter than these people, soldier.

These men and women are patriots, Captain.

I don't have to agree with everything they say.

But I have to believe in everything we're doing here right now. Do you

understand?

And how much are they paying you for the job?

Major, sir? Calvin?

Major, sir?

Why is this woman here?

She was hiding inside a truck behind some kind of refrigeration unit, sir.

Where are my stingers, Calvin?

This is what we found, sir. The manifest said stingers. I saw it on the computer

screen, Major. I swear it. We think whatever's inside may be valuable, sir.

Valuable? Uh, we don't know.

But no stingers?

No, sir.

What is the first principle of a military operation? Sir, the first rule

military operation is to establish discipline and reliable chain of

sir. Very good. Trust.

I trust my information because I trust Bethany.

And you, Calvin.

You've been with Lightning Dong for what?

Three years, sir.

That rules you out, right, Calvin?

Yes, sir.

I guess that just leads to the mercenary.

He set us up. He had to.

The feds find out his brother's with Lightning Dawn.

They trump up some charge, fake a little jail time in Leavenworth.

They used you, Calvin.

He used you.

You came to me, though.

How do you think you're so good, mercenary?

Do you think this militia needs you?

Do you think I need you?

Major, we did it.

He's my brother.

He never ran. Never. I swear it.

We just got it wrong, Major.

Back off, Calvin.

It took Beth two years to get that job. It's out of control.

Breaking the codes.

Tracking covert shipments. Those were mine.

All that work.

Time and money.

Wasted.

Wait, wait, we don't know that. For sure.

Whatever this shipment is, the army's trying real hard to cover it up.

She's not talking, sir.

But you know, it has to be valuable, right?

I'm listening.

Right. Lee, tell him.

You wanted to expose a government conspiracy.

What's in there is what you've got.

She says it's dangerous, sir.

Dangerous? Yes, sir.

Well, Captain.

Is it?

Dangerous?

How dangerous is it?

Captain.

Do you know how human flesh smells when it burns?

You have five seconds to tell us what's in that compartment before you find out.

You don't have to do that.

She's going to tell us.

One. Light it now and get it over with.

Two.

Three. Tell the man, Captain.

Four. You couldn't possibly imagine what's inside of there. If you would

Five.

I warned you, but you didn't listen.

I'll get the captain.

He's not here.

Mercenary, leave her. We're moving out.

Go to hell. Please.

Come on.

I'm not leaving her. Let him die with her if that's what he wants. Let's just

go.

What the hell?

Where'd this ice come from?

Go get the truck. Truck?

If we don't get out of here, we're dead anyway.

It's in the engine.

What's it doing in the engine? The heat. It wants the heat.

Bring that torch over here.

Where's that thing?

Is she a part of the way?

Where is that thing?

You're out of your mind. You saw what it did to Ruddock in the truck? The

captain will light it. I only take my orders from real soldiers.

I'll do it.

Lowly. You'll get your chance, mercenary. So just back the hell off

you.

Look, we've got to get the girl. She can take care of herself, all right?

The Major! The Major! The Major.

You want to go with that lunatic?

You go.

You want to come with me?

Let's move.

Well... It ain't exactly like I knew this was going to happen with you. Me

neither.

What is this?

That thing must be sealing off the perimeter.

The pipe must be bursting up there.

Calvin?

Calvin?

Where are you?

Don't move, soldier, or I'll put you down, I swear it.

Now, I want you to roll over slowly.

Give me a gun.

Get the light.

Get up your stairs.

Bling!

Any sign of her?

Freeze her, Major. Let's forget about her, please.

Where's your brother?

I don't know.

We got separated.

Who are your friends?

They're not my friends.

One of them's my brother.

Tell them.

Your brother, huh?

Yes, ma 'am.

You don't seem like brother.

Although you act like brother.

We've been that way ever since we were kids.

You're not a kid anymore.

Calvin raised me.

My mother died when I was ten. My dad left right after that.

He's always taken care of me.

That doesn't mean you've got to put up with that light and dawn crap.

We've got no one else.

We stick together.

Mount your lights.

How about you give me my gun back?

I don't know.

Are you forgetting who untied you down there?

It's going to get mighty cold down here.

Let's find the electrical room.

Life is mounted. Let's move out.

What the hell is this?

The mist has gone high.

The doors are frozen shut.

It's the only thing I've seen, isn't it?

It's happening all over again. This is just what it did to the team that found

it. It took an Army Corps of Engineers three days to build a dome over the site

and confine it.

Listen, Captain, you've got to tell me about this.

I was on the research team. We learned what we were going to learn, and we were

moving it to a permanent location.

Our travel orders were Operation Singers, which is why your friends

were transporting arms.

Well, it doesn't matter anymore.

Tell me about this thing.

It crashed about three years ago in New Mexico.

Space crash. We don't know where it came from.

We don't know why it was here.

It wasn't like any spaceship you'd imagine.

It was grown.

Grown. Okay.

Made entirely of living organisms.

A bio -machine.

Uh -huh.

Okay, just imagine your car's engine, tires, it's suspension.

All separate organisms working for the better of the whole to move it down the

road.

Colony of symbiotes.

And that's what this thing is?

Well, one part of it. The one part that survived.

Um, I guess it's a living cooling system. It's not hostile.

It just considers us heat sources that need to be removed.

Like a shark.

It's nothing personal.

And you decided to ship this shark out in the back of a one -ton?

We had to. There was a leak. Some Senate subcommittee didn't want us shipping

the parts to Russia.

Well, that's for damn good reason.

Well, they have a cryogenic facility in Siberia that could contain this thing in

a deep freeze for a thousand years.

With ours, there was always a threat that it could escape into the biosphere.

And it expands by some kind of mitosis that cools whatever space it occupies.

And that means... It reproduces.

Mm -hmm.

And what's it made of?

Liquid helium.

Some kind of super fluid.

Trace elements we can't identify that make it alive.

Well, how do we beat it?

We don't.

Well, I'd rather fight it than wait for it.

Come on, dear.

That thing got him.

We would have heard it, wouldn't we?

I say we become the hunter and blow this thing to hell.

You think we can?

Check out the rest of this floor.

That and me, I'll go up one and check that out.

What if we see the girl?

What do you think, Calvin?

Prison was better.

What did you do Tom for?

Misappropriation of government property.

Two years.

So you're a thief?

No.

Some computers came into the basement's label.

The guys in my unit, they took them.

Some of them covered my ass in the Gulf War.

So I took them down.

So... Somebody came looking for the

computers.

They hung me out big time.

And this militia? I ain't got nothing since doing time.

I ain't got the army.

Calvin's what I got.

And Lightning Dawn's what Calvin's got.

Like I said, brothers stick together.

And who are you sticking with now?

I told you.

It's everywhere.

Yeah, it's me.

Man, you scared the hell out of me.

Damn.

You got the girl?

Yeah, I got her.

She's all right. She's with us, Calvin.

That thing's still out there, Lee.

We gotta get out of here, man. I know.

The captain's gonna help keep us alive. She's in charge.

You hear me?

I don't want to go like radically.

I don't want to go like that.

I know.

You got to hang in there.

Okay? We're going to stick together.

Captain, how about I take point?

You watch my back.

It'll warm up once we kill it.

What?

No!

Lee! No!

You leave my brother alone!

You hear me?

Back off, Captain.

Kill him.

Let's go, Lee.

I'll get you out of here.

I guess I really screwed up just now.

Don't talk like that.

I just wanted to do... I just

wanted to do the right thing. I know.

I just wanted to do the right thing. I know.

I just wanted to do the right thing. I know. I know.

Don't think about that. Just take it easy.

Take it easy.

You get yourself out of here. Come with me.

Can you somebody hear me?

Can you?

That's me.

Gotta go. We're gonna breathe to death.

Lee, there are two of them now. If they escape the building, listen to me.

They could spread all over the world looking for heat.

Gotta warn the people.

Come on, soldier.

Let's move.

I can't feel my feet. All right, Captain. You got to keep moving.

Come on.

If the temperatures drop anymore, I'm not going anywhere.

Any suggestions?

Insulation.

I need insulation.

Stay here.

So keep you warm.

Good.

It'll also hide our thermal profile from that thing so it doesn't see us so

easily.

Come on, Captain. We've got to move.

I'm tired.

I'm sleeping.

Captain, we've got to move. You talk to me. Get up. Come on.

Okay. Okay.

So your brother's in the militia group.

Lightning John.

How much did they pay you?

Ten thousand?

More? I thought it was the right thing to do.

You know what they stand for.

Maybe I don't stand for anything.

Maybe you should.

Maybe you don't know how hard it is out there.

Oh, please.

Nobody ever gave me a damn thing.

I made it to captain in a man's army, soldier.

Can you say that?

No, I can't.

You warm yet?

A little.

Look, when we make it out of here... Don't move!

I'll go.

Hey,

it senses movement.

I'm going to buy you some time.

On that third one, you go up to the escalator.

I have an idea. We can't stay here. Lee. Let's go back to the loading bay. I'll

add a torch and distract it. Lee, listen to me.

Can you get the electricity back on? Circuit box is reposed. I could try

Come on, I'll show you.

Drop your weapons.

Now.

Drop them.

You did this to me.

She's the only one who knows how to kill it, Major.

You created this, didn't you?

Didn't you?

Like?

Smart.

Still can't see you.

Smart.

Give him to me.

Drop him!

Take these flares.

Walk ahead of me.

When it goes for you, I'll blow it to hell.

Bite it.

There's another way, Major. Listen to me.

What are you doing?

What are you

doing?

Can you do it?

Maybe. If I can just break through the skies.

Then I can trip through the breakers.

One of us has to go back out there.

If that's me. Wait. I don't even know what we're doing here yet. The creatures

are 90 % liquid helium.

One of the few substances that reacts with helium is neon.

As in neon sign?

Exactly. Neon and helium combine to create a substance that cannot be a

superfluid.

We're trying to poison it.

That's the idea.

I just need you to turn on the juice when I shout.

Now what?

Well, you're going to ask me if anybody else made it out of the building.

Tell him what you want.

Permission to leave, Captain.

Permission granted.

Where are you going to go?

Someplace warm.

Unit 642, come in, please.

Unit 642, come in. Why do we need to belong?

Is it for the fellowship of others?

Or is it the fear of being left?

Vote in the Goats.
