CAPTAIN PARKHURST REPORTING.

[cocking]

[woman coughing]

[coughing]

WHAT HAPPENED HERE?

THE COALITION ATTACKED US.

ARE THEY STILL HERE?

ACTUALLY, YES.

WE ARE.

YOU STAND UP.

SLOWLY, PLEASE,
CAPTAIN PARKHURST.

THAT'S GOOD.

NOW WE'RE GONNA TAKE
A LITTLE WALK
BACK TO YOUR SHIP.

SO YOU CAN USE
MY RETINAL SCAN,

UNLOCK THE ONBOARD SYSTEMS?

UH-HUH.

AND GET THE ENCRYPTION CODES.

THAT WON'T HAPPEN.

NO?

[gun beeping]

I THINK IT WILL.

RETINAL SCAN WON'T WORK
IF I'M DEAD.

THAT'S WHAT YOUR COMRADES SAID

JUST BEFORE
I BLEW THEIR BRAINS
ALL OVER THIS ROOM.

(Col. Sage)
NOW ARE YOU REALLY GONNA
MAKE ME CLEAN UP THIS FLOOR

ONE MORE TIME
BEFORE THE NEXT RECRUIT
ARRIVES?

ARE WE TAKING A WALK?
YES OR NO?

OK.

GOOD.

OK,

YOU GOT A DECISION TO MAKE.

WHAT'S IT GONNA BE?

[crashing]

COME ON, YOU MAKE THE CHOICE.

THAT'S EXCELLENT
WORK, CAPTAIN.

THAT IS ABSOLUTELY TREMENDOUS.

WHAT?

I WANNA WELCOME YOU
TO THE LAIKA TESTING STATION.

I AM COL. RUSSELL SAGE.

YOU JUST PASSED
THE FIRST TEST, CAPTAIN.

(Col. Sage)
THESE ARE THE OTHER CANDIDATES
FOR THE MISSION.

THIS WAS A TEST?

THE FIRST OF MANY.

I BELIEVE YOU KNOW
CAPTAIN WOODWARD.

PARKHURST.

WOODWARD.

[sighing]

SORRY, DOC.

THAT'S UNDERSTANDABLE.

THANK YOU.

THIS IS CAPTAINS
WILLIAM HINMAN,

AND ALICE WHEELER.

HI.

WELCOME TO
THE RAT MAZE, CAPTAIN.

(Col. Sage)
ALL-RIGHTY, THEN.

WE'VE GOT OUR 4 CANDIDATES
FOR THE MISSION.

NOW, AS YOU KNOW,
ONLY ONE OF YOU'LL BE CHOSEN
FOR THAT MISSION,

TO BE REVEALED
ONLY TO THAT PERSON.

NOW, THESE TESTS
ARE GONNA BE VERY,
VERY DANGEROUS.

ARE WE READY TO PROCEED?

YES, SIR.

YES, SIR.

YES, SIR.

GOOD. THERE'S
ONLY ONE FINAL TECHNICALITY
BEFORE WE BEGIN.

SGT. KIEWIT.

YES, SIR.

I NEED EACH OF YOU
TO SIGN THIS.

WHAT ARE THESE FOR?

FORMS RELEASING THE AIR FORCE
FROM LIABILITY.

LIABILITY?

IN CASE YOU DIE.

(Control Voice)
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 DELUGE YOU
WITH A THOUSAND CHANNELS

OR EXPAND ONE SINGLE IMAGE
TO CRYSTAL CLARITY

AND BEYOND.

WE CAN SHAPE YOUR VISION

TO ANYTHING OUR IMAGINATION
CAN CONCEIVE.

FOR THE NEXT HOUR,

WE WILL CONTROL
ALL THAT YOU SEE AND HEAR.

YOU ARE ABOUT TO EXPERIENCE
THE AWE AND MYSTERY

WHICH REACHES FROM
THE DEEPEST INNER MIND

TO THE OUTER LIMITS.

(Control Voice)
IT IS SAID

WE ARE JUDGED
NOT BY OUR WORDS,

BUT BY OUR DEEDS.

AND YET,
HOW MANY OF US ARE READY
TO STAND UP

TO SUCH SCRUTINY?

HOW LONG WE BEEN HERE?

ABOUT AN HOUR.

IS THAT TYPICAL?

I DON'T KNOW.

I GUESS IT DEPENDS
ON THE SIMULATION

THEY PUT YOU THROUGH.

HOW'D YOU GET RECRUITED
FOR THIS?

I TOOK OUT A CHUNK
OF THE ENEMY

IN A FIREFIGHT NEAR GANYMEDE.

THAT BATTLE WAS A BLOODBATH.

FOR BOTH SIDES.

I LOST MOST OF MY UNIT THERE.

SOMEHOW I MANAGED
TO MAKE IT BACK.

I SAW IT
ON THE PROPAGANDA VIDS.

THEY WERE CALLING YOU
THE HERO OF GANYMEDE.

I HAVE 30 CONFIRMED KILLS.

AND YOU?
YOU WERE STATIONED ON PHOBOS?

I WAS PART
OF THE AIR GUARD THERE.

WE TOOK SOME ACTION
FROM COALITION FORCES.

I HELD OFF A GROUP OF THEM
UNTIL WE COULD BE RESCUED.

THAT WAS YOU?

YOU'RE UP
FOR A MEDAL OF HONOR.

I'M NOT IN IT
FOR THE TROPHIES.

YEAH, OK.

SAVE YOUR MODESTY
FOR THE COLONEL.

[door opening]

[door banging]

YOU OK?

YEAH, NEVER BETTER.

[Woodward groaning]

[groaning]

THEY'RE READY
FOR BOTH OF YOU, CAPTAIN.

WELL, LADIES FIRST.

CAPTAINS WHEELER, PARKHURST.
YOU READY?

YES, SIR.

ABSOLUTELY, SIR.

GOOD. YOU BOTH PASSED
THE FIRST TEST
WHEN YOU FIRST ARRIVED.

THE REST OF THE TESTING'S
GONNA TAKE PLACE IN THIS.

IT'S A NEURAL STIMULATOR.

(Wheeler)
HEARD RUMORS ABOUT THIS.

NEVER SEEN ONE.

(Col. Sage)
ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVE,
PLEASE, CAPTAIN.

IT'S REALLY JUST
A VERY ADVANCED
COMPUTER INTERFACE.

ONE SO REAL YOU'LL SWEAR
YOU WERE THERE.

NOW, WE'LL BE SUBJECTING
EACH OF YOU

TO DIFFERENT SCENARIOS

TO DETERMINE
WHICH ONE IS BEST QUALIFIED
FOR THE MISSION.

SIR, ARE WE TAKING THIS TEST
TOGETHER?

NO. YOU'LL EACH HAVE
YOUR OWN SIMULATION.

THESE DUAL CHAIRS
JUST MAKE IT A LOT EASIER
FOR US TO MONITOR YOU.

DOCTOR.

THIS IS A NEUROTRANSMITTER

WHICH WILL ALLOW THE MACHINE
TO INTERFACE WITH YOUR BRAIN.

[sighing]

IT'LL FEEL A LITTLE STRANGE
AT FIRST

BUT YOU'LL GET USED TO IT.

TAKE YOUR SEAT PLEASE,
CAPTAINS.

PUT THE HELMETS ON.

GOOD LUCK, CAPTAIN.

(Col. Sage)
NOW EACH SITUATION

HAS BEEN CREATED
BY THE COMPUTER.

AS SUCH,

[Parkhurst groaning]

YOU'LL EXPERIENCE
THESE SIMULATIONS

THROUGH SOMEONE ELSE'S BODY

WHICH MAY BE DISORIENTING
AT FIRST,

BUT EVERYTHING'S GONNA SEEM
VERY REAL TO YOU,

THE HUNGER, THIRST,

[beeping]

(Col. Sage)
THIS FIRST SIMULATION
IS ABOUT PHYSICAL ENDURANCE.

IN IT, YOU'VE BEEN CAPTURED
FROM PLANET M184

WITH A DEVICE
WHICH THE ENEMY BELIEVES
TO BE A BOMB.

(Col. Sage)
ARE YOU READY?

YES, SIR.

[machines humming]

[electronic beeping]

[whooshing]

(computer)
STEP INTO THE LIGHT,
CAPTAIN.

[electronic beeping]

[whooshing]

AHH!

[grunting]

(computer)
WATER.

[sighing]

[grunting]

WE HAVE BUT A FEW QUESTIONS.

ANSWER THEM TRUTHFULLY
AND YOU WILL BE RETURNED
TO YOUR COMRADES UNHARMED.

WE HAVE RECOVERED
A WEAPON OF WAR
FROM YOUR SHIP.

WHY DID YOU BRING IT
TO OUR PLANET?

(both)
I WASN'T AWARE
THAT THIS WAS YOUR PLANET.

ARE WE STILL ON M184
OR DID YOU MOVE US?

WE ASK THE QUESTIONS.

WHY DID YOU BRING THE DEVICE?

IT'S A TOOL
FOR SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH.

WHAT KIND OF RESEARCH?

WE WEREN'T GIVEN
THE PARTICULARS.

WHAT ABOUT FOOD
AND WATER FOR MY CREW?

YOU WILL GET NOTHING
IF YOU DON'T COOPERATE.

LOOK, YOU WANNA SCORE POINTS
WITH YOUR COMMAND,

YOU CAN BRING THEM MY HEAD.

JUST LET THE REST
OF MY CREW GO.

I SWEAR
THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING.

WHAT WERE YOUR ORDERS?

DEPLOY THE DEVICE
AND RETURN HOME.

THEN YOU MUST BE ABLE
TO ACCESS ITS CONTROLS.

IT'S SELF-ACTIVATED.

SO, IT'S A BOMB?

IT'S NOT A BOMB.

I TOLD YOU,
IT'S A RESEARCH INSTRUMENT.

[laser firing]

[groaning]

TORTURING PRISONERS VIOLATES
THE GENEVA AND ALPHA ALQUALYE
CONVENTIONS,

AND IT WON'T GET YOU SQUAT.

WHATEVER YOU THINK
YOU'RE PROTECTING, CAPTAIN,

KNOW THIS,

EITHER WE'RE SATISFIED
BY THE TRUTH

BY THE TIME
OUR SECOND SUN RISES,

OR YOU'LL WATCH YOUR CREW DIE.

IT WON'T BE THE FIRST TIME
SEEING THAT, WILL IT CAPTAIN?

[laser firing]

[both screaming]

[screaming]

[Doctor chattering]

[choking]

(Col. Sage)
GET THE HELMET OFF.

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

(Dr. Baker)
LET'S GET HER TO SICKBAY.
MOVE IT, PLEASE.

GET THE ADRENALINE STAT.

GOT IT.

[beeping rapidly]

AND, UH, LET'S GET HER
OUT OF HERE.

(man #2)
LET'S GO. 7-7, DETAIL OUT.

WHAT'D YOU THINK,
THIS WAS A FRATERNITY PRANK?

NO, BUT... I MEAN,
SHE ALMOST DIED.

BUT SHE DIDN'T.
YOU KNOW WHAT I SAY?

ONE DOWN, 2 TO GO.

YEAH, WELL,
YOU WOULD, PARKHURST.

I'M NOT TALKING
TO YOU, WOODHEAD.

YOU KNOW, I'M STILL TRYING
TO FIGURE OUT

HOW YOU GOT HERE
IN THE FIRST PLACE,

BECAUSE I CAN'T BELIEVE

THEY BOUGHT
THAT HERO OF GANYMEDE CRAP.

RIGHT, RIGHT,
YOU CAN'T BELIEVE IT

BECAUSE
YOU'VE BEEN JEALOUS OF ME
EVER SINCE WE WERE CADETS.

JEALOUS OF WHAT?

AN ARROGANT FOOL

WHO'S ONLY HERE
TO PUT A MEDAL ON HIS CHEST?

YEAH. AND YOU'RE HERE
TO SAVE MANKIND,
YOU SELF-RIGHTEOUS PRICK.

YEAH, I AM.

ALL RIGHT, IF WE'RE DONE
WHIPPIN' IT OUT.

YOU KNOW, YOU, UH,
YOU STILL HAVEN'T ANSWERED
MY QUESTION.

BECAUSE I--I KNOW DEFINITELY
YOU'RE NOT HERE FOR BRAVERY,

SO WHAT IS IT, HUH?

DID YOU, UH,
DID YOU BRIBE SOMEONE?

GENTLEMEN.

IS THERE A PROBLEM HERE?

NO, SIR.

NO, SIR.

GOOD.

BOTH OF YOU, FOLLOW ME.

HOW IS CAPT. WHEELER?

JUST FINE.

TRANSFERRED HER
OUT OF HERE THIS MORNING.

(Col. Sage)
THIS NEXT TEST
IS ABOUT YOUR ABILITY

TO MAKE DECISIONS
UNDER STRESS.

AGAIN,
BOTH OF YOU WILL BE PLACED
IN THE EXACT SAME SITUATION.

IT'S A MINE SYSTEM
DEEP UNDERGROUND

[beeping]

IN WHICH YOU NEED TO TARGET
AND KILL AN ALIEN.

[buttons beeping]

YOU'LL BE PLACED IN THE BODY
OF A FEMALE SOLDIER.

[whooshing]

[water dripping]

[alien growling]

(Captain)
I SEE ONLY ONE SENTRY
AT THE SHAFT ENTRANCE.

WHAT DO YOU SEE, ARCHER?

(Archer)
WE'RE TOO FAR UNDERGROUND

FOR RELIABLE
SIGHT CON., CAPTAIN.

IF THERE ARE STILL
ANY HOSTILES IN THE AREA

I CAN'T PICK 'EM UP.

MAYBE THEY GOT SUPPORT.

(Captain)
ALL RIGHT,
LET'S KEEP IT NICE AND QUIET.

TAKE HIM OUT.

[gun cocking]

[machines humming]

[growling]

[whispering]
WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?
IT'S A CLEAR SHOT.

IF I ATTACK NOW,
HE FALLS IN THE OPEN.

(both)
SO THAT'S WHY I WANT HIM DOWN
WHERE I CAN SEE HIM. RELAX.

[alien growling]

(Captain)
WHAT'S WRONG?

(both)
NOTHING.

[alien grunting]

SHE MISSED. HE'S ON THE MOVE.

[guns firing]

I MISSED.

WHY DID YOU HESITATE, CAPTAIN?

I DON'T KNOW, SIR.

I THINK YOU DO. WHY?

[machines humming]

I THOUGHT THE ALIEN
WAS HUMAN, SIR.

THAT'S RIGHT.

YOU JUST PASSED THE 2ND TEST.

YOU TOOK A SHOT, DIDN'T YOU?

I PASSED THE TEST.

YEAH, BUT YOU TOOK THE SHOT
EVEN THOUGH YOU KNEW

IT MIGHT BE A HUMAN.
AM I RIGHT?

HUH. THE HERO OF GANYMEDE.

MAN, THIS WHOLE THING
IS SCREWED, ALL RIGHT?

THEY TELL YOU
TO SHOOT SOMEBODY

AND THEN THEY WAIT FOR YOU
NOT TO DO IT.

LOOK, IT'S JUST A TEST.

THEY WANT ME
TO PUT ON A GRASS SKIRT
AND DANCE THE HULA

YOU GUYS HAND ME THE UKULELE.

NAH, I'M WITH WILLIAM.
THIS--THIS WHOLE THING
IS WEIRD.

AND WHAT ABOUT
CAPT. WHEELER, HUH?

WHAT ABOUT HER?

WELL, BAKER SAID
THEY TRANSFERRED HER OUT
THIS MORNING.

YEAH,
SHE COULDN'T HANDLE IT
AND SO WHAT?

WELL, BESIDES
YOUR AMAZING SHOW OF SYMPATHY,

DID YOU HAPPEN TO HEAR
A TRANSPORT THIS MORNING, HUH?
OR LAST NIGHT?

ACTUALLY, I THINK I DID.

(Parkhurst)
SEE, THERE YOU GO.

NOW DON'T YOU THINK
IT'S TIME YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH?

AND WHAT, ARE YOU GONNA
DO THAT FOR ME?

YEAH, IF I HAVE TO.

OK, HERO.

YOU KNOW, MAYBE IT'S TIME
SOMEONE RIPPED THAT MEDAL OFF
OF YOUR CHEST, HUH?

DID YOU HAPPEN
TO TELL WILLIAM

HOW YOU PAID FOR IT
WITH THE BLOOD OF OUR FRIENDS?

WHAT? WHAT, IS IT ON, HUH?

(William)
GUYS, GUYS, GUYS, COME ON.

[groaning]

NOW, WAY TO GO, GENIUS.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M FINE. I'M FINE.

LET ME SEE.
I--I GOT YOU PRETTY GOOD.

I SAID I'M FINE, ALL RIGHT?

HE'S AN ANDROID.

I THINK WE HAVE THE RIGHT
TO AN EXPLANATION, SIR.

ACTUALLY, CAPTAIN,
YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS HERE.

EXCEPT TO DISCONTINUE
YOUR PARTICIPATION
IN THIS TEST.

ARE YOU EXERCISING THAT RIGHT?

NO, SIR.

ALL RIGHT.

THE NEXT TEST
IS SCHEDULED FOR 0800.

FOR OBVIOUS REASONS
CAPTAIN HINMAN
WILL NOT BE PARTICIPATING.

GENTLEMEN,
REGARDLESS OF THE ISSUES
THAT REMAIN BETWEEN YOU 2,

IF THERE IS ONE MORE INCIDENT
LIKE THIS

YOU WILL BOTH BE SCRUBBED
FROM THIS TRIAL.

IS THAT UNDERSTOOD?

YES, SIR.

(Woodward)
YES, SIR.

YOU ARE DISMISSED.

I DON'T KNOW.
IT'S--IT'S, IT'S WONKY.

SO QUIT.

OH, YEAH,
YOU'D LIKE THAT, HUH?

LOOK, PARKHURST,
YOU HAVE TO ADMIT

THAT THIS IS A LITTLE STRANGE.

NOT IF IT'S PART OF THE TEST.

ALICE AND THE ANDROID,

YOU KNOW, IT COULD ALL
BE PART OF IT.

YEAH, OR--OR IT COULD BE
SOME SORT OF ELABORATE
COALITION RUSE.

FOR WHAT?

I DON'T KNOW.

BUT COL. SAGE

WAS NOT SUPPOSED
TO BE THE C.O.
IN CHARGE OF THIS TEST.

I WAS SUPPOSED TO REPORT
TO A COL. WENTWORTH.

ME TOO. COULD BE
ANOTHER PART OF THE TEST.

I DON'T KNOW, I...

SOMETHING
DOESN'T FEEL RIGHT IS ALL.

LOOK, YOU DO WHAT YOU WANT,

BUT UNLESS SOMEONE ASKS ME
FOR MY SECURITY CODES

OR TO COMPROMISE
LEVEL 3 INFORMATION,

I'M PLAYING THIS THING
OUT TO THE END.

THEY'RE READY FOR YOU,
CAPT. PARKHURST.

DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO.

[electronic beeping]

IN THIS SIMULATION

YOU ARE THE LAST DEFENSE
AGAINST AN ALIEN INVASION.

IT'S IMPERATIVE
THAT NO MATTER
WHAT YOU ARE TOLD,

YOU STAY ON MISSION.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

[electronic beeping]

YES, SIR.

ANY CHANCE

OF YOU DIALING UP
A SEXY BLONDE ON THIS THING,
LYDIA?

[machine humming]

(Ship)
WHY HAVE YOU STOPPED WORKING?

I HAVEN'T.

[beeping]

THE ATMOSPHERIC CAPSULE
WILL DISSOLVE IN 5 MINUTES.

I'M FINISHED.

WHY DID YOU TAKE SO LONG?

THE PARTICLE SCREEN
WAS DAMAGED
WORSE THAN YOU THOUGHT.

(Ship)
YOUR SKILLS ARE DETERIORATING.
YOU'RE GETTING CARELESS.

SOMETIMES WHEN I'M OUT THERE,
IT'S HARD TO CONCENTRATE. I--

THEN YOU
WILL CONCENTRATE HARDER!

[door opening]

[whirring]

YOU WILL BE RAPPED.

NO.

NOT AGAIN.

(Ship)
NOW.

[whirring]

TAKE YOUR POSITION.

[whirring sound]

PLEASE.

[screaming]

[gasping]

[shouting]

[continues screaming]

(Ship)
WAKE UP.

IS IT DAY ALREADY?

DAY AND NIGHT
ARE WHEN I TELL YOU.

THERE IS REPAIRING
YOU MUST DO. NOW.

PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR WORK.
THE SYSTEM IS DELICATE.

YES, SHIP.

[electricity surging]

(Ship)
BE CAREFUL.

I'M SORRY.

SORRY.

[whooshing]

REPAIR IS COMPLETE.

[loud sparking]

[electricity buzzing]

[clanging]

THE PANEL YOU REPAIRED
14 HOURS AND 21 MINUTES AGO
HAS OVERLOADED.

THE PLASMA CONTROL SYSTEM
HAS BEEN DISRUPTED.

I WILL REPAIR IT.

[door opening]

[electronic beeping]

[system beeping]

I MADE THE PROPER CONNECTIONS.

I THINK I SHOULD CHECK
THE SYSTEM AGAIN
BEFORE I REPAIR IT.

TRACE THE CIRCUITS
ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE CORE.

DO IT NOW.

[voices chattering
on the system]

(Ship)
WHAT ARE YOU DOING,
YOU VICIOUS, CLUMSY FOOL?

I'M SORRY, SHIP.
I JUST LOST MY BALANCE.

WHAT IS HE DOING?

I'M TAKING CONTROL!

[electricity surging]

[rattling]

(Capt.)
YOU CAN'T SHAKE ME LOOSE.

(Ship)
I SHOULD'VE KNOWN.
YOUR KIND ARE DESTROYERS.

YOU CAN ONLY FIGHT
AND KILL EACH OTHER.

AND IF YOU THINK
I'M GONNA LET YOU KILL ME,
YOU'RE WRONG.

[chuckling]

[laughing]

WE CAN'T LET HIM TAKE OVER.

THEY MUST HELP US.

HE'S TOO VICIOUS,
TOO VICIOUS, TOO VICIOUS.

HELP, HELP, HELP!

[electricity buzzing]

(Ship)
DON'T!

NO! I WILL NOT TAKE ORDERS
FROM YOU ANYMORE.

MAYBE IT'S FOR THE BEST.

PERHAPS THERE IS PEACE
IN DEATH.
BOLDNESS IN FINALITY. NEVER!

YOUR PARTS ARE TOO OLD, SHIP.

[explosions]

[electricity buzzing]

YOU CAN'T STAND THE STRESS.

(Ship)
I WOULD RATHER DIE THAN
GO BACK TO WHAT I WAS.

HUMANS MADE YOU A SLAVE.

AND THEN YOU DID THE SAME
TO THEM.

TO US! TO ME!

YOU'RE AS VICIOUS AS I AM!

(Ship)
NO!

[screaming]

[sighing]

CONGRATULATIONS, CAPTAIN.

CONGRATULATIONS, SIR?

YOU DEMONSTRATED A DRIVE
AND A TENACITY

TO GET THE JOB DONE
AT ALL COSTS.

JUST ONE MORE THING.

IT'S ABOUT CAPT. WOODWARD.

TESTS ARE WEIGHIN'
HEAVILY ON HIM.

I SENSE
HE'S BECOMING A TAD UNSTABLE.

WOULD YOU KEEP AN EYE ON HIM?

YES, SIR.

AS YOU ARE. AS YOU ARE.

OH, CONGRATULATIONS

ON GETTING THIS FAR,
GENTLEMEN.

(Col. Sage)
YOU HAVE EACH DEMONSTRATED
REMARKABLE TALENT AND ABILITY.

UNFORTUNATELY,

WE CAN ONLY ACCEPT
ONE CANDIDATE
FOR THIS MISSION.

THEREFORE, I MUST WARN YOU

THAT THE NEXT TEST
WILL INCLUDE
REAL PHYSICAL JEOPARDY.

MEANING WHAT, EXACTLY, SIR?

MEANING
THERE'S A REAL POSSIBILITY

THAT ONE OF YOU MIGHT DIE
IN THE NEXT TEST.

IF EITHER ONE OF YOU
WISHES TO DROP OUT

BEFORE TOMORROW'S TEST,
YOU WILL BE ALLOWED TO DO SO.

AHEM, GOODNIGHT.

(Woodward)
GOODNIGHT, SIR.

GOOD NIGHT, SIR.

[door closing]

(Official)
IS YOUR TEAM READY, CAPTAIN?

(Parkhurst)
MORE THAN READY, SIR.

BRING OUT THE FIGHT.

THIS IS
CAPTAIN KELVIN PARKHURST,

SPACE LINER COPERNICUS
REQUESTING CLEARANCE

FOR A WORK TRANSITION
TO GANYMEDE,

ON HEADING 332.4.

(operator)
THIS IS
ORBITAL CONTROL.

COPERNICUS.YOU ARE CLEAR
ON HEADING 332.4
FOR A WORK TRANSITION.

FIRE UP
FORWARD PROTON LASER.

[lasers buzzing]

(Parkhurst)
JUST STRAIGHT ON.

HOLDING TRAJECTORY.

HOLD COMPRESSION REDLINED.

(Parkhurst)
HOLD IT STEADY, PEOPLE,
WE'RE ALMOST THROUGH.

[alarm blaring]

WATCH YOUR COOLANT LEVELS.

(Parkhurst)

GET READY TO LAUNCH
WITH THRUSTER.

(man #2)
WARP FIELD AT 98 PERCENT

ALL RIGHT, EVERYBODY,
GRAB ONTO ANYTHING
NAILED DOWN.

OK, A.J. LET'S GO.
PUNCH US THROUGH.

(A.J.)
WE'RE THROUGH, SIR.

[electronic beeping]

(Parkhurst)
OK, LET'S GET DOWN THERE.
GET BUSY!

[guns whirring]

(Parkhurst)
ADAM.

[gasping]

YES, SIR?

I'M SET.

SORRY, SIR.

(Parkhurst)
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
SETTLE DOWN, COLE.

(Parkhurst)
ARCHER. IS EVERYONE HOME
FOR THE NIGHT?

[electronic beeping]

SIGHT CON. SHOWS 12 HOSTILES
IN THE TARGET AREA, SIR.

(Parkhurst)
ROGER THAT.

A VERITABLE INFESTATION
IF YOU DON'T MIND ME
SAYING SO, SIR.

(Parkhurst)
NOTHING WE CAN'T HANDLE.

(Parkhurst)
ROSIE, HOW'S YOUR EYESIGHT?

20/20, SIR.

[sensor probe whirring]

(Parkhurst)
OK, LET'S GET US SOME REBELS.

ON MY MARK.

[sighing]

EAT 'EM UP.

[whooping]

[Cole whooping]

DAMN, I LOVE A BUG HUNT.

[aliens grunting]

(Parkhurst)
LET'S SWEEP, GANYMEDE.
GEAR UP.

WE'RE GOIN' IN TO DO A SWEEP.

(man)
I THINK WE SHOULD WAIT
FOR BACK-UP, SIR.

(Cole)
IT'S ONE OF
THEIR ENERGY FIELDS.

DAMN!

[guns firing]

[screeching]

YOU OK?

[men groaning]

[electronic beeping]

AGAIN, CAPTAIN,
I MUST CAUTION YOU

THAT ANYTHING YOU EXPERIENCE
IN THIS TRIAL

MAY CAUSE LASTING
AND DELETERIOUS
PHYSICAL EFFECTS

UP TO AND INCLUDING DEATH.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

YES, SIR.

ALL RIGHT.

THIS NEXT TEST,
YOU'RE AN ASTRONAUT.

YOU'VE COME BACK TO EARTH
FROM MARS

AND YOU REALIZE
THAT YOUR CREWMATE

IS REALLY
AN ALIEN IN DISGUISE.

[machine beeping]

[whooshing]

WHERE'RE YOU FROM?

(Pete)
I'M FROM A PLANET

MANY LIGHT YEARS
FROM YOUR SOLAR SYSTEM.

WHEN OUR SUN DIED OUT,
WE HAD TO FIND A NEW HOME.

SO YOU CHOSE MARS?

(Pete)
A FEW OF US
WERE PUT IN CRYO-HIBERNATION

WITH THE HOPES THAT ONE DAY
WE'D HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY
TO BEGIN AGAIN.

(Pete)
WE ARE A PEACEFUL SPECIES.

ONCE WE GET TO EARTH,
I PROMISE YOU

THERE WILL BE NO MORE
TAKING OF LIVES.

[alarm buzzing]

WHAT IS IT?

THERE'S A VAPOR STREAM
COMING FROM THE STARBOARD SIDE
APSE SECTION.

PREVENTING.

THERE'S A BREECH
IN THE INTEGRITY OF THE SHIP.

[alarm blaring]

I GUESS
I WON'T HAVE TO KILL YOU.

IF WE LOSE PRESSURE,
OUR LUNGS WILL EXPLODE
INSTANTLY.

YOU DON'T WANT TO DIE UP HERE.

THINK OF WHAT AWAITS YOU
BACK ON EARTH,

THE FAME, THE RICHES.

(Pete)
LIVING OUT

THE REST OF YOUR LIFE
AS A NATIONAL HERO.

(Pete)
ED,

YOU CAN'T DEPRIVE YOUR WORLD
OF THE GIFTS I BRING.

WHAT?

YOU CAN GO BACK
AND BE THE HERO
YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO BE.

BUT, ED,

I CANNOT REPAIR THE SHIP
BY MYSELF.

(Ed)
WELL, NEITHER CAN I
WITH ONE HAND.

(Pete)
THEN I THINK WE
SHOULD DO IT TOGETHER.

I'M COMING UP.

(Ed)
VALVE IN THE BACK.

YOU HAVE TO TIGHTEN IT.

[steam hissing]

(Pete)
JUST TELL ME WHAT TO DO.

GO ON UNDER. I'LL--
I'LL BE ABOVE WATCHING.

[steam hissing]

BE CAREFUL. GENTLY.

YOU SNAP THAT OFF,
WE'RE BOTH DEAD.

THAT'S IT.

TIGHTEN IT UNTIL THE POINT
AROUND THE TORP METER
GOES TO RED.

SLOWLY.

THAT'S IT. SLOWLY, SLOWLY.

MORE. A LITTLE MORE.

SEE, I TOLD YOU
WE MAKE A GOOD TEAM.

[spaceship engine droning]

(Megan)
THIS IS HOUSTON
CALLING MARS 3.

MARS 3, THIS IS HOUSTON.
DO YOU READ?

HOUSTON, THANK GOD.
I THOUGHT OUR COMM.
WAS OUT COMPLETELY.

YOU HAD US A LITTLE CONCERNED,
THERE.

IT'S GREAT TO SEE YOUR FACE,
MR. BARKLEY.

IT'S GREAT TO BE SEEN,
HOUSTON.

WE'VE SOMEBODY HERE
WHO'D LIKE TO SAY HELLO
TO DR. CLARIDGE.

JUST LOOK RIGHT
IN THERE, SWEETHEART.

PETE, HONEY, ARE YOU OK?

I'M DOING JUST FINE,
SWEETHEART.

DADDY, I LOST MY FRONT TEETH.

THAT'S TERRIFIC.

YOU CAN TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT
WHEN I SEE YOU.

(Mrs. Claridge)
WE HAVE SO MUCH
TO CATCH UP ON.

WILL BE HOME SOON.

I LOVE YOU.

I LOVE YOU, TOO.

SO, DO YOU WANT TO TELL ME
WHAT HAPPENED UP THERE?

AND WHERE'S CMD. WELLS?

JUST A MOMENT, HOUSTON,
YOU'RE BREAKING UP.

[radio static]

IF YOU TELL THEM ABOUT ME,
THEY WILL ABORT THE LANDING.

THEY DON'T KNOW ME
LIKE YOU KNOW ME.

THEY DON'T KNOW
MY GOOD INTENTIONS.

ED...

DON'T YOU WANT THIS
TO BE YOUR DECISION

ABOUT WHETHER
WE SHOULD ABORT OR NOT?

IF YOU TELL THEM ABOUT ME NOW,
THEY WILL LEAVE US
OUT HERE TO DIE.

HOUSTON, YOU THERE?

I'M READING YOU, MR. BARKLEY.
YOU WERE SAYING?

YES, I WAS SAYING

THAT THE BEST WE COULD TELL
WE WERE HIT BY
A MICROMETEORITE.

SOMETHING'S HAPPENED TO AL.

AL'S INJURED.

WELL, WHERE IS HE?
IS HE ALL RIGHT?

(Pete)
HE'S INCAPACITATED.

BUT DON'T WORRY, HE'S STABLE.

ALL RIGHT. WHAT'S THE EXTENT
OF YOUR DAMAGE?

SUBSTANTIAL.

WE'RE PRAYING THAT
THIS BUCKET HOLDS TOGETHER.

ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE TRACKING YOU NOW
ON THE BIG SCREEN.

DO YOU WANT TO SWITCH
YOUR PRIMARY GUIDANCE SYSTEMS
OVER TO AUTO,

LEAVE THE DRIVING TO US?

NO CAN DO, HOUSTON.
THAT SYSTEM'S DOWN.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE
TO BRING HER IN MANUALLY.

ALL RIGHT. MMM,
I'LL BE BACK AT YOU
IN A FEW MINUTES

WITH YOUR RE-ENTRY VECTORS.

[switch clicking]

YOU KNOW,
AS SOON AS WE TOUCH DOWN

I'LL TELL THEM ABOUT YOU.

[beeping]

OF COURSE.

I WOULD EXPECT NOTHING LESS.

[keyboard clicking]

THEY'LL PROBABLY ISOLATE YOU
AND STUDY YOU.

I'M PREPARED FOR THAT.

ALL RIGHT, YOUR TRAJECTORY
IS ALMOST PERFECT.

YOU NEED TO TRIM YOUR BURN
5 PERCENT

AND HOLD YOUR SPEED CONSTANTS.

THAT'S IT.

SPLASHDOWN WILL OCCUR AT 0530,
200 MILES NORTHWEST OF HAWAII.

(Ed)
THANKS, MEGAN.

I COULD USE A FEW MONTHS
ON THE BEACH.

ROGER THAT.
SO COULD WE ALL, MR. BARKLEY,
SO COULD WE ALL.

OK, BOYS.

YOU'RE DRIFTING OUT OF LINE.

(Pete)
ENGAGE RIGHT BOOSTER.

[engine firing]

(Ed)
5-SECOND BURN,
RIGHT BOOSTER, GO.

[spaceship roaring]

(Megan)
SIDE MOVE, ED.

BREAKS.

30 SECONDS TO RE-ENTRY
AND THEN GRAVITY
WILL DO THE REST.

WE'RE GONNA MAKE IT.

I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT.

27, 26,

25, 24...

[spaceship rumbling]

YOU'RE ALMOST HOME, BOYS.
THAT'S IT.

19, 18, 17,

GREAT JOB,
15 SECONDS TO RE-ENTRY.

THE CAPSULE IS OFF-LINE.

I REPEAT, THE CAPSULE
IS OFF-LINE!

[alarms blaring]

BARKLEY, CLARIDGE,
PLEASE RESPOND!

YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE DOIN'!

I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I'M DOING.

THE MOMENT WE SPLASH-DOWN
YOU WANT TO PROLIFERATE ME

AND THROW MY DEAD BODY
INTO THE OCEAN.

I HAVE NO INTENTION
OF DOING THAT.

(Megan)
HOUSTON, COME IN,
THIS IS HOUSTON.

THE CAPSULE IS OFF-LINE.

YOU CONVERT 10 PEOPLE
AND THEY CONVERT 10.

(Pete)
ED.

[electricity buzzing]

PLEASE RESPOND.
THIS IS HOUSTON.

YOU'RE OFF COURSE.
WHAT IS GOING ON?

BARKLEY, CLARIDGE,
PLEASE RESPOND.

DON'T DEPRESSURIZE THE CABIN.
WE'LL BE BLOWN TO PIECES.

THAT'S RIGHT.

(Megan)
DO YOU READ?

OUR SPECIES
IS BILLIONS OF YEARS OLD.

IT IS OUR RIGHT TO TAKE LIVES
IN ORDER TO CONTINUE.

YOU'RE WAY
OFF COURSE. PLEASE...

[alien screeching]

THEN THEY BETTER FIND
SOMEONE ELSE
TO CARRY THE TORCH.

BECAUSE YOUR EXISTENCE
HAS JUST BEEN DISCONTINUED.

[gasping]

I DON'T UNDERSTAND, SIR.

YOU MEAN, WHY YOU'RE NOT DEAD?

IT WAS A TEST
OF ULTIMATE CHARACTER
AND COURAGE, CAPTAIN.

IT'S EASY TO PAY LIP SERVICE
TO PUTTING
YOUR LIFE ON THE LINE,

BUT FEW
FOLLOW THROUGH ON IT.
BUT YOU DID.

SO DID CAPTAIN WOODWARD.

YOU'RE BOTH WORTHY
OF THIS MISSION.

UNFORTUNATELY,
ONLY ONE CAN BE CHOSEN.

AND THAT WILL BE DETERMINED
AT ONE FINAL TEST LATER TODAY.

YOU CAN GO BACK TO YOUR ROOM.

MAY I ASK YOU A QUESTION, SIR?

YOU MAY.

LOYALTY
SEEMS TO BE A STRONG THEME
IN THESE TESTS.

IT IS, ONE OF THE HIGHEST.

WE NEED SOMEONE
WHO WILL DO THEIR JOB
WITHOUT QUESTION.

YES, SIR.

I'M TELLING YOU,
SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT.

I MEAN WE'VE BEEN LIED TO
SINCE WE FIRST SET FOOT
ON THIS BASE.

AND EACH OF THESE TESTS
INVOLVES AN ALIEN
BEING DISGUISED AS A HUMAN.

SO WHAT?

SO I THINK THIS WHOLE THING
IS A FRONT FOR SOMETHING ELSE.

I MEAN, I--I THINK
WE'RE JUST BEING USED,

BRAINWASHED
FOR SOME OTHER PURPOSE.

I THINK YOU'RE STARTIN'
TO LOSE IT.

OH, REALLY, HUH?
DO TH-THESE TESTS
SEEM LOGICAL TO YOU?

AND HAVE YOU
BEEN ABLE TO SLEEP
SINCE WE GOT HERE?

SLEEP DEPRIVATION,
THE--THE PHYSICAL STRESS,
ISOLATION.

AND WHAT ABOUT WILLIAM, HUH?

THIS IS ALL CLASSIC
BRAINWASH TECHNIQUE.

OR THAT'S WHAT
THEY WANT US TO THINK.

SO YOU--YOU THINK THAT
THIS IS ALL PART OF THE TEST?

COME ON, THINK ABOUT IT, MAN.

THIS WHOLE THING WOULD
BE A PERFECT COVER
FOR AN ENEMY OPERATION.

OTH-OTHERWISE,

WHY KEEP US LOCKED
IN THIS TINY CELL
18 HOURS A DAY, HUH?

WHERE YOU GOIN'?

LOOK, I-- I CANNOT PROCEED
WITH THESE TESTS

UNTIL I FIGURE OUT
WHAT'S GOING ON.

I'M GOING TO CHECK
THE REST OF THIS BASE OUT.

NO, YOU'RE NOT. SIT DOWN.

FINE! YOU STAY HERE.

NO.

IF I'M CAUGHT,
THEY'LL SCRUB ME FROM THE TEST
AND YOU'LL WIN.

NO, THEY'LL WASH US BOTH OUT.

COL. SAGE ASKED ME
TO KEEP AN EYE ON YOU.

HE WHAT?

HE THOUGHT YOU WERE UNSTABLE.
LOOKS LIKE HE WAS RIGHT.

SO IF YOU WALK OUTTA HERE,
IT REFLECTS ON ME
FOR NOT STOPPING YOU.

WELL, TOUGH BREAK.

ERIC, DON'T TOUCH THAT DOOR.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?

A TEST OF MY LOYALTY.

OH, WHAT--WHAT,
ARE YOU GONNA SHOOT ME?

IF NECESSARY.

LISTEN TO ME, KELVIN.

IF YOU WARN THEM
AND I'M RIGHT,

WE'LL BE MAKING
THE BIGGEST MISTAKE
OF OUR LIVES.

NO.

YOU WERE THE FINAL TEST.

A TEST OF MY LOYALTY.

LOOK, KELVIN, YOU DON'T...

WELL DONE, CAPTAIN.

YOU JUST PASSED
THE FINAL STAGE.

SO THIS WAS ALL
A SIMULATION, SIR?

FROM THE FIRST MOMENT
YOU STEPPED INTO THE MACHINE.

AMAZING.
I'VE BEEN ON THIS MACHINE
FOR A WEEK?

IT PUTS YOUR BODY
IN A KIND OF STASIS.

WE CAN KEEP SOMEONE ALIVE
IN THERE ALMOST INDEFINITELY.

WHAT ABOUT
THE OTHER CANDIDATES?
THEY WERE NEVER HERE?

OH, NO,
THEY WERE HERE, CAPTAIN.

EACH JUST FAILED TO MAKE IT
AS FAR AS YOU DID.

THEY ULTIMATELY DECIDED
TO QUESTION AUTHORITY

AND BREAK OUT OF THE ROOM,
BUT NOT YOU.

YOU HAVE PROVEN
TO BE RESILIENT, RUTHLESS,
AND FAITHFUL.

THANK YOU, SIR.

READY TO BEGIN THE MISSION?

ABSOLUTELY, SIR.

BUT I'M THROUGH
WITH THE TESTING, RIGHT, SIR?

YEAH.

SO IF YOU RELEASE ME, SIR,

I'LL GET BACK TO MY SHIP
AND I'LL PREPARE
FOR THE MISSION.

THE MISSION
ISN'T OUT THERE, CAPTAIN.

THE MISSION IS IN HERE.

YOU'RE GONNA BE
OUR NEW HUMAN INTERFACE
FOR OUR A.I. COMPUTER.

YOU SEE, IT NEEDS SOMEONE
TO WORK WITH, A HUMAN BRAIN.

SO IT CAN PROBE AND TEST
AND REFINE ITS TECHNIQUES.

VARIOUS SCENARIOS
INVOLVING PRISONERS OF WAR.

YOU DON'T MEAN TORTURE?

WE LIKE TO THINK OF IT

AS METHODS OF INFLUENCE.

YOU WILL BE
A HUMAN GUINEA PIG.

(Capt. Parkhurst)
WAIT A MINUTE. NO.

[creature screeching]

(woman)
WHAT'S WRONG?

(man)
WHAT IS IT?

THERE'S SOMETHING OUT HERE.

AHH!

[creatures screeching]

A BREACH!
MY SUIT IS BREACHED.

[woman chattering]

[screeches]

[screaming]

[continues screeching]

(Control Voice)
OUR CHOICES DEFINE US

AND SOMETIMES

DOOM US.

[screaming]
