RIP, mate.

Show me, man. Here you go.

See you in a little while.

See you there.

Vince Club.

Somebody better clean it up.

Well, your turn.

Guess that's me. Get on up.

Easy, easy, easy.

Hold him down. You're going to be all right.

Easy, man, easy.

You're going to be all right.

it needs it.

All right.

We need to talk.

Don't tell me.

Teague? Yeah.

Grab a brush.

Are we painting you or the tower?

Very funny.

All right.

You remember that incident that happened at the drill rig a few weeks ago?

Yeah, it was all over the news.

Some guy die out there?

Yeah. One still missing.

The police wrote it up as some form of mass hysteria.

It's something about how oil workers are a lot like sailors when they work in

isolation for long periods of time, but they don't actually start using mind

-altering drugs, and sometimes they experience self -induced fantasies on

own. Ryan, the guy who died out there didn't die because of some self -induced

fantasy. Well, Teague said that the same exact thing happened 20 -something

years ago in Saudi Arabia.

Another oil rig, another crew.

Except none of them survived.

So? So, the insurance company investigator listed the cause of death

released while drilling, which is the same as here.

So what do you think?

Well, I think you should get your boat, I'll pack a picnic lunch, and we should

take a trip out to the mountains.

You're right.

How many worked here?

A crew of 12.

They'd work for 30 days straight and then take the next 30 days off.

How deep were they drilling?

600 feet down to the bottom and then 2 ,000 down into the dome they found,

that hadn't been tapped into for over 2 million years.

What do you mean a dome? I always thought it was called pools of oil.

No, the pressure from the shelves and the fossilization creates a kind of

dome effect, sort of a bell jar.

But this rig was one of their top producers and then went dry after the

accident.

Coincidence? I don't know. I mean, it'd only been pumping for three months. They

don't set these things up for short periods of time. Cost too much. Can we

now? No, not yet.

It's supposed to be a picnic.

I don't care.

But I'm hungry.

Check out the drill shaft.

Over here.

Right here is where the guy melted.

So, the pumping is over here.

Guys are still upstairs playing cards. Everything's normal. They hear a sound

from the drill pipe here.

They come down. It clears the sludge.

Everything's still normal.

Guy starts talking.

That's not funny.

Ouch.

Burns.

I'd rather be with some guy.

The nights will never be the same.

So you think something live came bubbling up?

We're fools to think that we've identified every life form.

All right, what do you think it is?

Well, I don't know. Start with your basic life form, the single cell.

Oh, amoebas, pornozoa.

Yeah, exactly.

There's no structure, no bones, no vertebrae. It's just this ever -growing,

-moving life form.

Killer.

All single -cell organisms have only one purpose for existing.

That's to eat.

Well, worker, they're protein.

Come on, you really believe any of this is possible?

I didn't say I believed any of it. I'm just answering your question.

Nice library.

What more do you need? Pictures and more pictures.

Well, it's a cheery little place, isn't it?

Some wallpaper, some drapes here and there.

So, tell me what happened in Saudi Arabia.

When the incident occurred, it was on a rig in the Red Sea.

Privately owned, government controlled.

All the new information was suppressed.

How'd Teague find out about it?

Good question.

What he did manage to find out, though, was that there were 14 deaths.

How they died is a little sketchy, but the word melted is used.

Melted?

That's the word they used.

An even stranger.

After the accident, the rig went completely dry.

Just like this one.

So we get all these assignments from Teague.

Where do you think he gets them? Government?

All of the cutbacks? There's no way.

He spends money too easily.

He's probably privately funded.

International?

Most likely. He's too well -connected for him not to be.

Well, why do it, I mean?

What's the point?

Same reason why we're here. Curiosity.

You know, I have this vision of the guy Teague works for. This big, fat guy, you

know, kind of like Orson Welles, sitting in a black leather chair.

in front of a wall of computers, with nothing on his desk but a pencil.

I'd like to meet that man.

Me too.

It looks abandoned.

Yeah, we should check it out. Our money might have fallen overboard.

Drifting boats have made your hat. Come on.

on board the vessel.

Anyone on board the vessel, please come out.

We're boarding your vessel.

Hello?

Hello?

It's okay, Elliott County Lifeguard. Come on down.

Get me off here, please.

I have to get off here, please.

Is someone on board with you?

No, no, he's not here anymore. He's gone overboard.

Overboard?

Was he wearing a life vest?

No.

How long ago?

This morning, six, seven hours.

Just take it easy. What happened to him?

We were arguing.

I was up to the bow. I was really mad about what he had tried.

He was in the bag, so I purposely wasn't looking until I heard this.

Ugly, almost animal groan, and there was a...

Did it have any kind of shape?

It was shapeless. It had this light.

What kind of light?

A glow.

Please, give me all this help.

Give me all this help!

Please!

AMF 295, 295.

Radio's dead.

Engine won't crank over either. We gotta use a scarab.

radio's dead too what the hell's going on

it's gonna get dark soon gotta get out of here

we gotta get out of here we're working on it okay this thing should work

plugs are fine the batteries can i get i just can't get any ignition

mitch yeah i know

Maybe we should move to the oil rig.

That'll be okay.

Griff knows we're headed there anyway.

And just how are we going to get there?

No. No way. I'm not going out on that little boat. There's no way. That's the

thing. I've got Jeffrey. Just take it easy.

Look, I know you're scared.

But right now, I've got to keep you safe.

Safe is on the oil rig.

It's hard to make it back in.

I'm all right. It's okay.

Back again.

Griff,

hey, where's Mitch?

He's not back from the oil rig yet.

Oh, no.

I really wanted to tell him something.

I rescued my first person today.

From drowning?

Yes, from drowning.

Well, not really drowning, but sort of. I mean, he could have drowned, but I was

there, so he didn't.

Then you saved him. Yeah.

All right, Donna, way to go.

You know, I can't believe he's not back yet.

Maybe he and Ryan stopped off for a bite to eat or something.

Well, let's call them.

We'll meet them for dinner.

Oh, I've just got to tell him, Griff. I've got to.

Okay, come on.

I really, really did it.

It's just so exciting.

So you're excited?

Yeah, I am.

Come on this way.

All right, go on in.

You don't know where we're going, do you? Claire, please calm down. What are

doing on this rig already?

I don't think this is a good idea.

Look, if you will just calm down, I'm sure we will find a way out of this.

hey, please, please, just a second.

Now listen to me.

Obviously something happened to this girl. It's got her totally freaked out.

Let's just give her the benefit of the doubt, all right? Why don't we give her

muzzle? She is this close to losing it.

I'll make it two of those. Okay, okay, you ready?

Please.

Ryan, we've got to make it through the night here together.

Fine. No problem.

I completely understand.

Thank you.

Okay, everything's going to be all right. Come on. Hey, what happened to

picnic baskets? I'm starving. Oh, I don't know, Mitch. I must have left them

the boat.

This is like Mitch.

It's just not like him.

Baywatch. Hi, this is... Oh, hi, Noomi.

Listen, do me a favor. Try to get Mitch on the radio.

Okay, well, if he calls in, just tell him I'm looking for him, okay?

Okay, thanks.

Try and run his cell phone.

Subscriber's unavailable. There's travel outside the cemetery.

It's almost night.

You know, I shouldn't be worried.

He's Mitch Buchanan.

Out on the ocean. In a boat.

But I am.

Here's a blanket.

Thanks.

That's the sound.

That's what I heard when it got Jeffrey.

It's going to get us. I know it.

I'll be right back.

No. No, don't go out there.

helping guys like Jeffrey.

A nice guy with a porcelain smile and a Porsche.

Oh, I am so stupid.

Claire, I'm sorry. Can you be quiet for just one second, please? Don't yell at

me anymore.

Everybody's always yelling at me. It drives me crazy.

I'm scared Jeffrey's dead and you're yelling at me. I can't take it.

Claire, sit down and shut up.

It's not like they have to check in with us.

What are you saying? You want to turn around and go back?

No.

No, we're already on our way. Keep going.

It's a nice night.

Griff, are you just saying this because you don't want me to worry?

Come on.

What is the worst that could happen at a certain delivery, huh?

Mitch is gone. He's not coming back.

He'll be back.

He won't. It got him like it got Jeffrey.

How can you be so calm through all this?

How can you be so calm?

I just look at one compared to you.

Ryan, tell me about this thing. It's coming, isn't it?

You see it? I saw something.

Describe it. It's big.

Amorphous? Yes.

What does that mean?

Shapeless. It's also got some sort of electrical energy about it. Some

brightness. Some sort of glow about it. That's right. That's exactly what it is.

Can this thing survive out of the water?

Theoretically, the environment doesn't matter.

How can it be so big?

There are no limits.

This thing can get as big as its food supply will support.

Once it's big enough, then it divides.

Divides?

Can it think?

No. No.

No. It has a nucleus with no brain.

Mitch, I think my concern is food and more food. I've got to make sure it

real hard for the next meal.

Why aren't you screaming? I'm so scared.

It's not that it matters, but I just figured out why the radios wouldn't work

and the engines wouldn't start.

EMP, it's an electromagnetic pulse. You see, sometimes when they set off bombs

in the oceans, certain life forms take on this aura of a magnetic field, and

they can disrupt any kind of electrical machinery anywhere near it.

You're right. It doesn't matter.

All right.

This is good.

We'll be safe here.

You're sure I can't get in here?

Well, I wasn't until you said that.

I'll be right back.

No, wait. I'm going with you. No, no, please.

You can't.

It's going to get us.

It's going to get us. I know it's going to get us. Where?

I'm trying.

It's coming.

These doors are going to hold up better than the other ones did.

What are you looking for? A weapon.

Listen to me. You've got to give me something.

What's this thing here?

I'm trying.

It's carbon -based.

I thought it was a pencil.

It'll burn.

Give me a match. Give me a match.

Listen to me. Come over here. Come over here.

Put your hand right here.

I want you to turn this valve on and you hit it, okay?

Don't hook that hose.

Some of these oil rigs have self -destruct mechanisms.

We fire that, we can blow this thing with it.

What's going to happen to us?

We've got to take our chances in the water.

What if it gets in the water before we do?

We'll make sure that doesn't happen.

Ryan. No, we'll be okay.

Go, go, go.

You have

initiated

manual override of the internal self -destruct system.

If you are certain this was not done in error, press 7, 5, 3, 4.

I'm certain, I'm certain.

If you do not press 7, 5, 3, 4, system will automatically discount prior

instruction. I figured it would make it complicated.

7, 5, 3, 4.

Station 1, armed.

Self -destruct initiated.

Yes.

You're overchipping right in front of us. Doesn't make any sense.

No, no, it's there.

What's in that fog, babe?

I don't see any light.

Station two, armed.

Self -destruct initiated.

One, two, and three. Armed.

One minute, 30 seconds to detonation.

A minute, 30 seconds.

Terrific.

to hide.

We're still alive, aren't we? Yeah.

Listen, that's what's important. We just gotta keep moving, okay?

Yeah.

This way.

Get into

the water through his hat.

He's from as far away as possible.

As fast as you can.

Okay.

I've seen that look before.

It's okay.

You know what I'm doing.

Go on.

Ten seconds.

Nine. Ten.

Four.

Five. Four.

Three. Two.

Please don't. No, you don't understand. I saw him on top of the rig when it blew

up. He was there. And it blew up and he was still standing there. Oh, my God.

You're not going to ride or do I have to swim in?

Mitch. It's over.

Get us out of here, will you?
