We're running out oftime.

We have polluted
and peopled this planet...

to the brink ofextinction.

We are destroying our world
at a suicidal pace.

We need a pollution revolution.

And it's not going to be easy...

because the world
is addicted to petroleum.

We have limited resources,
and we go to war to protect them.

We need a new technology...

and this technology can't be sold.

It must be given away to everyone.

We are in sight ofa dream.

There is a solution.

The answer is all around us.

It's right here.

Water, H2O.
Two parts hydrogen, one part oxygen.

There is enough energy
in this glass ofwater...

to power the city ofChicago
forweeks.

It's the hydrogen we're after.

This is what happens
when we burn it.

It's perfectly clean, and you can
burn it when you want to—

in a car, in a turbine
or in your own basement power supply...

right next to yourwater heater.

But what ifwe could release
this energy efficiently?

We will transform the world.

Maybe we start
to put an end to war.

Ofcourse,
we have to make it work first.

Hey,James. How you doing?

Hey, Eddie. Cold enough foryou?

It's never too cold.

- Hey, Lu! You want me to set up?
- Yeah. Right away, huh?

- Hello, Mr. Shannon.
- Mr. Shannon, the big man, how are you?

Hi. Mr. Sheehy.

- Alistair.
- Did you have a good trip?
- Very good. Thankyou.

- Paul.
- Hi, young fella.

- Can I get you some coffee or something?
- No, I'm fine.

I turn on the laser here. We should focus
the laser in the center ofthe bubble.

- So how's it going? Tell me.
- You didn't get my fax?

No, I got the fax.
I just didn't understand all the figures.

You need to control the bubble.

- The reaction regulator
still isn't working properly.
- I gave Eddie the spec.

I know. Eddie, did you
computer-model yourwork last night?

No, I didn't.
I was, uh, too busy building it.

We sustained fusion
for 4.6 milliseconds.

Stable?

It's stable... for 4.6 milliseconds.

Let me showyou. Come. Come.

The power input and
the power output is fine at this stage.

Now, the power output drops to nothing
at stage three, so what happened?

- Paul?
- Yeah, okay.

All right. I gotta go.

- Cross your fingers, everyone.
- Good luck.

Mr. Chen, initiate laser.

Initiate laser.

Hydrogen separation in progress.

Initiate hydrogen burn.

Two million kelvin and rising.

Shut it down.
It's unstable. Shut it down.

We learned
something very important today.

We found another way that didn't work.

We need to keep our minds open.
Try again.

- Alistair, it's working.
- Is it stable?

Yeah, it's stable.
Completely stable.

- My God. We go tomorrow.
- Tomorrow, Alistair.

- Lily, talk to me.
- Temperature, gas flow, acoustic drive~ steady.

The regulator seems
to have stabilized the reaction.

Lucasz.

My spectrometer shows
stable hydrogen production.

We're getting more out
than we put in.

Well, I think you'd better
sell your utility stocks.

Whoa. Mr. Sheehy.

Unbelievable.
Doctor, you're going to be famous.

Thanks for everything.

- Hey, Shannon. We want more money now.
- Thanks foryour trust.

Whoo!

Kind ofdrunk.
Lily, stay on me, for Christ's sake.

l got it. I got it.

Here comes Crazy Eddie.

Eddie, congratulations.
I really am quite impressed.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

I never agreed to keep anything
from anyone.

- You know how I feel about this.
- Alistair, be cool.

Mandela will get this information.
China will find out.

You can go whereveryou like,
but don't move an inch.

Dangerous, Alistair. I can't begin
to tell you what could happen if~

This is no time
to be talking seriously.

- Come along. Everybody's waiting foryou.
- Come on, Alistair!

Come on! Yes!

Okay, everybody.

Holy shit. We did it.

Holy shit! We did it!

Your battery's dead.

There's ice all over
the dashboard, all over the seat.

Come on. I'll get you home.
We'll take my bike.

Oh, yes, please.

- Where do you live?
- I live in England.

No. Sorry, sorry, sorry.

I live on Kimbark and 54th.

- Kimbark and 54th?
- Mm-hmm.

Oh, no, we can't.
You'll freeze to death. Um—

Let's take a taxi.

- A taxi, huh?
- Uh-huh.

We got a better chance
at getting picked up by a U.F.O.

Mr. Chen, upload everything.
I want to get it all on the Internet tonight.

We're gonna be waking up
a lot of people.

You're damn right.
Really wake 'em up.

Barkley.

We don't have the computer
model, but we have the frequency...

and we will send it to you
in one hour.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
In one hour.

Where are you going?

Chen?

Here we are.

This is Alistair's house.

Isn't he sweet?
He lets me live on the third floor.

Ooh, uh, this way.

Is this what drunk is?

You've never been drunk?

I've never been this.

Lily's too serious.

- She's no fun.
- I thinkyou're fun.

Good night, Lily.

Wow.

Alistair?

Alistair!

Chen!

Get ready.

- Shannon.
- Paul, Alistair's dead.

- Eddie?
- I found him on the floor ofthe lab
with a bag over his head.

- He was murdered.
- What?

just what happened here and what
caused the explosion last night is still unclear.

University officials
say that this mill site...

had been converted into a site for the
experimental production of hydrogen fuel.

Now, university officials say
that's not supposed to be dangerous.

One ofthe questions, ofcourse, that law
enforcement officials are trying to determine...

is whether foul play was involved.

As we indicate, that's unconfirmed.

But we can confirm this—
an F.B.I. agent has said...

and it's been reported
by a spokesperson for the bureau...

that there was no nuclear device that went off
last night, there was no atomic explosion.

As far as you know, are all your people
accounted for, Mr. Shannon?

Miss Sinclair, is this all the group?

Alistair didn't come home last night,
and Lu Chen isn't anywhere to be found.

I phoned him, and he's not anywhere.

I started C.P.R. Um, I checked for breath,
there was no breath.

I checked for pulse, there was no pulse.

I continued with the C.P.R.

Have the locals move the perimeter
back about a thousand feet.

You got it.

Find me a friendly federal judge
in the next two minutes.

I want wiretap orders, search warrants
on everyone who worked here.

- I want it 1 0 minutes ago.
- All right.

Inspector Ford, we understand you've
taken charge ofthis investigation.

Can you tell us,
why is the F.B.I. involved?

Ma'am, wejust had
eight city blocks disappear.

The President ofthe United States
talked to my boss at 3:00 this morning.

He wants answers.

Our children's children's children.

- We have limited resources.
- Why aren't you guys out looking for—

Tell me about Eddie. What do you know?
Does he drink? Do drugs?

No. He'sjust a machinist.

An undergraduate working
to get his degree.

That's the undisclosed cost
ofour cheap fossil fuels—

fossil fuel.

Who'd be interested
in this technology?

Cheap, clean, abundant energy.

Who wouldn't?

When you left the celebration,
who was still there?

Eddie.

So, Eddie, tell us again
whyyou came back.

I'd come back for my bike.

You say you'd just returned
from taking Miss Sinclair home?

That's right. Her carwouldn't start,
so I took her home on the bus.

What is your relationship
with Miss Sinclair?

Uh, we work together.

I'm a machinist. She's a physicist.

I was...

hired by Dr. Chen.

And who is Dr. Chen?

He was Dr. Barkley's...
project manager.

- Why'd he hire you?
- Because I'm a physicist.

Gentlemen, what have we got here?
Sergeant?

I think we have
Mr. Chen in the wind.

Nick, what'd you find?

It looks like he did his packing with a shovel.
This guy was in a hurry.

Dr. Barkley expressed interest
in a specialist in Sonoluminescence.

He knew about Dr. Chen...

so with the help ofsome friends
in the state department...

I managed to get him over here
and onto the team.

So you have friends
in the state department?

- We have influential members ofthe board.
- Really?

Who's on the board ofyour foundation?

- Ford.
- Various scientists.

- Yeah.
- And industrialists.

Your Dr. Chen is missing.

Any idea where he might be?

He may be dead.

We have no comments.

You're Eddie Kasalivich.
You're quoted as saying that they killed him.

Who killed him?
Who killed him, Eddie?

You were there before the explosion.
What happened?

What are you looking for?

We'rejust examining
the articles on his desk.

I don't see howyou're
entitled to do that.

- Annette.
- They have a search warrant.

- Theyjust have no respect for a man's life.
- I want a full inventory.

These are very important
and extremely sensitive scientific papers.

- We'll give you a copy ofeverything we have, sir.
- Signed, ifyou please.

For two decades, Dr. Barkley,
an eccentric renaissance genius...

from the University ofChicago...

has been on the trail
of hydrogen energy.

I can't stay here tonight.

Among the missing is Dr. Lu
Chen, who authorities are still looking for...

and may be considered
a suspect in the incident.

- Presumed dead is—
- This is insane.

They're going to think he did it.

Dr. Barkley was a hero to many
and a pariah to others.

Oh, no.

What is it?

It's from... Dr. Lu Chen.

He wants me to bring the rest
ofthe information, all the data...

and meet him at the rendezvous
in Shanghai.

I'm being framed.

- What are you talking about?
- This isn't from Chen.

- How do you know?
- He doesn't write like this.

- Well, then who sent it?
- Well, I don't know who sent it.

- Where's Chen?
- You don't think he did it?

Let's, uh—
Let's get out of here, okay?

Can I help you?

Oh, I sure hope so. We're here—
We're looking for Mr. Paul Shannon.

Oh, uh, he's on the phone right now.

He's all tied up right now.
Excuse me!

Excuse me! You can't go in there!
You can't go in there!

There's an awful lot ofexplaining to do.

I'll call you back.

What now, Agent Ford?

Just received Eddie Kasalivich's file.

Seems he had to leave college
for disciplinary reasons.

He blew the hell out ofthe lab.
I mean, this is a coincidence, Lord Almighty.

- You knew this kid was kicked out ofschool?
- He resigned.

- Under some pressure, wouldn't you say?
- There was some pressure, yes.

- Kid blows up a science building—
- Minor structural damage.

lt was an interesting experiment.
It might have worked.

Didn't you think this piece of information
was important for us to have?

I don't see the relevance.

- You don't see some small connection here?
- No, Agent Ford, I don't.

Well, how's this? The C.I.A. tells me
that Chen might be involved in espionage.

This Kasalivich guy has a past
that makes me nervous...

and Miss Sinclair is receiving faxes...

inviting her to rendezvous
in mainland China.

Really?

Really.

What's wrong?

We ain't seen him here.

That's my place.

Let's get out of here.

- A real shit-hole, huh?
- How much you say this guy makes?

Not much.
He's a student machinist.

- Hey, Sheen, what are you doing outside?
- Stay warm, buddy.

Got a loft foryour mother, Doyle.
Very artistic.

- Who's upstairs?
- Everybody. Halfthe city.

Good.

- You want to check that cabinet?
- Yeah, I got it.

- Don't hurt yourself.
- You could put together
almost anything in this place.

I want all this.

All right!
We need a total lab workup.

It's a neutron cappuccino machine.

Well, don't touch it.

- Hey, Nick, what's this?
- It's a transmitter.

- It's a burst transmitter.
- What does it do?

Well, it sends massive amounts
of information by satellite...

probably to China.

Uh, Nick, Doyle!

Calls flooded into the
University ofChicago from all over the world...

asking forword about the professor.

Expressions ofconcern came
from the Royal Academy in London...

from Paris, Moscow
and all parts ofthe compass.

But at the same time, critics say
that Barkley was a utopian dreamer...

and they point out that
the research he was involved with...

was obviously far more dangerous
than he realized.

Paul.

Shannon!

What's going on?

Tell me about the money, Eddie.

- What money?
- The 250,000 the F.B.I. found in your loft.

I don't know what you're talking about.

- What about the burst transmitter?
- Transmitter?

Think hard.

Jesus.

I suppose you're not in secret communication
with Dr. Chen in mainland China.

It wasn't Chen.

- Do you have an attorney?
- No.

I've got a good one. He'll negotiate
your surrender to the authorities.

Come upstairs with me.
We'll call him.

- Surrender?
- They'll want to talk to you.

- I'm not going.
- What do you mean, you're not going?

We didn't do anything, Mr. Shannon.

The F.B.I. will figure that out.

Someone's setting us up. I'm not going to the
cops until I know more about what's going on.

Eddie, you run, and you'll have every
gun-carrying idiot in the country looking foryou.

Look, talk to this lawyer.

We'll go somewhere safe,
and we'll wait till you work it out.

- Where?
- Maggie's.

We'll go to Maggie's.

Okay. You got any money?

Forty bucks.

All right. Here.

Now, when you get there, stay put.

Don't use the phone.
I'll call you.

Why is this happening, Paul?

It's gonna be all right, Eddie.
I promise you.

Wait here five minutes
and then leave.

What do we know about this Shannon?

Illinois lnstitute ofTechnology, Georgetown Law,
Kennedy School ofGovernment.

Worked for several aerospace giants.

Three years in Washington
during the Reagan administration.

- Oh, yeah? Doing what?
- DARPA.

Defense Advanced Research
Project Administration.

Jesus! Who the hell is this guy?

He's notjust someone
that runs a foundation, huh?

When I give him
my Ernie Banks autographed baseball...

he'll know what he's got.

There's a train at 8:40
out of Union Station to Williams Bay.

- That's where Maggie lives.
- And you're sure you can trust her?

We used to live and work together.

This is a Channel 32 special report.

We go live to the federal office building
in downtown Chicago.

Sorry to keep you all waiting.

As you know, it's been a very long
and, uh, a very trying day for us all.

Material witness warrants have been issued
in the northern district of Illinois...

for Professor Lu Chen...

Dr. Lily Sinclair
and Edward Kasalivich.

- Oh, my God.
- Anybody with knowledge
oftheir whereabouts...

is asked to please contact the Chicago office
ofthe F.B.I. immediately.

Eddie, what are we going to do?
We can't leave here together.

Get a cab outside.
Buy two tickets. Williams Bay.

I'll meet you on the track.

- Be safe.
- You too.

There are allegations that his body
was found before the explosion occurred.

Hey, Mike, did you see that guy?

Union Station, please.

Hey! Hey, you, come here!

Hey! Hey, Officer!

- Hey, buddy!
- Hey! Stop!

Hey, you, hold it!

I got him, Willy! I got him!

It doesn't make any sense.
If Kasalivich isjust a simple pawn...

what's he doing with
a burst transmitter in his bedroom?

- What?
- I mean, he's gotta be transmitting to someone.

- Unbelievable!
- What?

C.P.D.'s chasing Kasalivich down
Michigan Avenue.

You've got no chance!
Stay where you are!

He's gonna fall!
Get that boat under there!

What the hell's he doing?

He's going over!
Hey, we got guys downstairs?

Jump!

- Jump!
- Jump!

- What I tell you? Hejust went over!
- Stairs over here!

Let's get our boy.

Listen, how do we get him down?

Officer, if I move that bridge,
he's gonna fall.

- Can he get out from the lower level?
- Leads down to the gear room.

- Bring the bridge down!
- If he's in there, he'll get crushed.

1 0-4. Bring it down slow.

- They're bringing the bridge down now!
- Get over there!

Hey, what's happening? Why did it stop?

Tom, tell them
he's definitely been in here.

All right. I want this cleared.

Let's go! Do a search!

He's around here somewhere.

- Come on. Let's get this kid right now.
- Come on!

Somebody get me
some lights down here.

Hey, open it up again.

He's here somewhere.

You two, out of here.
Let's go! Move it.

Go, go, right now! Go!

You, back this thing out of here.
Come on!

Go! Get it out of here!
Let's go! Go!

Where the hell is he, Leon?

Now leaving on Track 1 9...

for Walworth,
Williams Bay,Janesville...

and Madison.

My God!
I didn't think I was going to make it.

- Watch your step.
- Thankyou.

Don't worry. He'll be here.

You were right.

- What tookyou so long?
- The bridge was up.

All aboard!

- Here you go.
- Thanks.

Thankyou.

Are you sure she's going
to be up this late?

Yeah.
She's, uh, usually up all night.

- She's kind ofwild.
- Oh.

- I worked up here once.
- Oh.

Maggie?

Maggie.

Oh, my.

Tell me you didn't do it, Eddie.

I didn't do it.

Oh, it's good to see you, Ned.

- You must be the other terrorist.
- I guess I am.

Maggie, this is Lily.

Hi, Lily.

- Have a nice trip, Mr. Shannon.
- Thankyou, Bobby.

So, Leon, how did you get me
into this hearing?

I don't have this kind ofclearance.

- I know a guy who knows a guy.
- Who?

- It's a guy.
- Well, who's the guy?

Doyle, it's national security.
I can't tell you.

Security concerns
must be given greater importance...

in our industrial research.

We don't know the cause
ofthe explosion— it's true—

and we don't know
the source ofthe espionage...

if indeed there was espionage.

But we do know that we are at risk.

Every idea that offers a competitive
advantage to Americans...

is subject to theft.

And that, gentlemen,
could be catastrophic.

Mr. Shannon,
over the past 1 0 years...

this committee has approved
hundreds of millions ofdollars...

foryour research projects...

without having one
good goddamn idea...

about where the hell
all the money was going.

He's talking about
our tax dollars up there.

We were under the impression, Senator...

that you passed legislation specifically
to ensure that you wouldn't know...

or perhaps, more accurately...

that you didn't want to know.

I'm aware ofthe law, Mr. Shannon,
thankyou. I wrote it.

But I don't remember
when I was drafting it...

that I anticipated a large portion...

ofthe south side ofChicago
blown up.

What assurances can you give me
and this committee...

that this event
will never happen again?

None, Senator.

The incident in Chicago was tragic,
to be sure...

but sometimes
that is the price we must pay...

to ensure our competitive edge
in the future.

We didn't intend to pay for
our space exploration program...

with the lives of 1 0 American astronauts,
but we did.

Nevertheless, we must not waver
in our commitment...

to technological and scientific
research and development.

As you gentlemen know...

there are many threats
to our way of life...

and not all ofthem wear uniforms
and carry guns.

Mr. Shannon...

I want to thank you foryour appearance
today before this committee.

Your words were spoken
like a true patriot...

ofwhom this country
can be very, very proud.

Thankyou, sir.

- I think I'm getting through.
- What about Lucasz?

He never got over
not getting his credentials.

No one on the team could have
done something like this.

Whoever is doing this
knows an awful lot about us.

If I hadn't have shown up...

they would have thought
it was an accident.

Ifyou hadn't shown up, nobody
would know what's really going on.

Oh, my God.

- Hey. Welcome back, boss. We missed you.
- What about me?

Surveillance is up on Shannon's estate.

Cue it up,Jimmy.

Where are the files
on the Moore Foundation?

Gentlemen, Shannon's on the move.

All new personnel,
there will be an orientation meeting...

in the main auditorium
on Level 1 at 1 400 hours.

- Is everyone here?
- Yes.

- Is it running?
- Not yet.

Good afternoon, gentlemen.

F.B.I. I'm Agent Williams.
This is Agent Lim.

So what kind offacility is this?

I'm sorry, sir. We're not allowed
to discuss this matter with you.

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.

Ifyou'll bearwith me forjust a few
more moments, we'll get things started.

Thankyou.

l don't care if it's an appointment
with Mother Teresa herself.

We have been waiting for him
for the last 35 minutes.

You're late.

This is another one ofyour messes, Lyman.

It's not the Peace Corps, Paul.

- Anyway, you said you had it under control.
- I did.

You know this thing's still not working.

You've got to call offthe bureau.

- Do you understand?
- I'm not sure I can do that.

There's an awful lot
ofexplaining to do.

Where's the young man?

Kasalivich.

He's someplace safe.

I'm bringing him in today.

Paul.

Ifsomeone's going down for this...

it is not going to be I.

Paul Shannon, please.

Maggie McDermott.
We're old friends.

Washington.

- Area code's Wisconsin. Checking the prefix.
- Punch it up.

I think we should be very careful.

It's Maggie McDermott. She's being
put through from the Chicago office.

Maggie.

Shannon, it's Eddie.

Scrambled.

It's him. He's on a pay phone
in Williams Bay.

- Call our contact there. I'll get the locals.
- What are you doing?

It's okay. I'm on a pay phone.
Listen. The phony fax to Lily.

It's okay. I know about that.
Go back to Maggie's and wait there.

- I'll send someone foryou.
- Lily tracked it to Beijing.

It routed through a Chinese
manufacturing company...

but it originated from something called
the American Technological Business Council.

- Gotta go.
- Ever heard of it?

- Listen, they'll be there within an hour.
- Now, Eddie.

- Look, I gotta go. We'll come to you.
- No, don't come here.

- Eddie. Eddie!
- Thanks.

Good luck.

Officer! Hey! Hey, Andy!

Andy, you know that guy on the news?
I saw him run up the road there.

- Really, Maggie?
- That's the phone!

You should have brought him in
when you had the chance.

Get a unit to the observatory
right away!

Lily!

- Eddie, it's unbelievable!
- Lily! We gotta go!

This business council— They lobby
for defense contractors and theJapanese.

- Come on!
- The list goes on and on.

- We gotta go now. The cops are here.
- What?

- Come on!
- How did they find us?

Hey, hold it right there!

Hey! Hold it! Hey!

Stop!

Hold it!

Stop! Hold it right there!

Get your hands up!

Get them up!

Walk back slowly towards me.

Come on. Do it!

Keep coming!

Good. Hold it right there.

This is Nemitz on the roof
of the observatory.

I've got 'em.

Go, go, go, go, go, go!

Go! Spread out!

Come on!

Officer down! On the roof!

Get a medical team up here right away!
Suspect is armed!

Get in the boat!

- Eddie, what are you doing?
- Get in!

- Eddie, what are you doing?
- The best I can!

- Are you okay?
- Yes!

He's out ofour sight! 1 2:00!

Lily, the bag! Give me the bag!

Go! Go!

There's nobody in there!

We need a pollution revolution.

Forget it. I don't care.
Search all ofWisconsin ifyou have to.

What, they lost them?

That C-Systems place this morning—
We can't get any information.

It used to be
a government-run facility...

and now, according to county records,
it doesn't even exist.

Well, maybe you weren't really there.

Maybe we're not really here, Leon.

Eddie, l can't feel my legs.

Come on!

Come on.

We got a fire. We got a fire.

Why would a policeman
shoot another policeman?

Maybe they weren't the police.

Why didn't they shoot at us?

I don't know.

What a dump, huh?

- Mr. Shannon?
- What?

There's two gentlemen from the F.B.I.
here to see you.

Well, this is more important
than his afternoon tea.

Our apologies for interrupting
your tea, Mr. Shannon...

but what's Kasalivich doing
in Wisconsin?

Running away from you, I'd imagine.

We understand he phoned you
a couple of hours ago.

I counseled Eddie to turn himself in
to the proper authorities.

Yeah, well, he and Miss Sinclair shot
a Wisconsin state trooper.

I doubt that very seriously.

Well, the state trooper's very dead.

Mr. Shannon, these are copies
ofthe Moore Foundation I.R.S. files.

Do you know what's in them?

Meager tax records, I imagine.

We are a nonprofit organization.

The funding foryour foundation...

comes from a wide variety ofsources:

defense contractors,
telecommunication companies, aerospace.

Well, it's gratifying to know
that ourwork is appreciated.

But the bulk ofyour contributions come
from one account in the Cayman Islands.

I don't do the fund-raising.

Oh, yeah, and the account...
is classified.

Who pays your salary, Mr. Shannon?

The foundation pays my salary.

Classified accounts,
encrypted phone communications.

You know, a man could be forgiven
for concluding that...

your foundation is largely a front
for our friends at the C.I.A.

Ifthat's the case, there may be
national security issues here...

that are larger than all of us.

Interfering with an F.B.I. investigation
is a federal crime.

- I know the law, Mr.—
- Doyle.

National security does not include
murdering people...

domestically at least.

Tell your friends at Langley...

that domestic is our backyard.

They're not allowed to play here.

You can keep the returns.

Nice house.

And for dinner tonight...

we have a choice
ofsardines or sardines.

Gosh.
I think I'll have sardines.

Sardines.
Perfect choice.

So, is this how
you seduce all the girls?

Only physicists with hypothermia...

who are accused of being a terrorist.

Thankyou.

There's a garage outside.
I'm going to go see what's in there.

I won't be long. Okay?

Your pit bull has killed
a Wisconsin state trooper.

Well, now, would you rather...

the bureau got the girl
and the Kasalivich boy?

First, he was a suspect.

Worst-case scenario—
they arrest him.

Now he's a cop killer.

Worst-case scenario—
they kill him.

For God's sake, Lyman, whatever
possessed you to frame him in the first place?

Two words—

convenience and expedience.

He saw too much. He was talking.

The poor boy was in the wrong place
at the wrong time.

I need this "poor boy!"

This "poor boy" is the only one
who knows the frequencies!

Do you understand the concept, Lyman...

poor impulse control?

Barkley, Chen, the regulator.
That was supposed to be it.

That was all of it!

I am sick to death
ofcleaning up your messes.

No, Paul. No. Yours.

Not mine.

You lost it, Paul.

Lost control, perspective.

You made it personal
with these people.

Well, we'll find him.

We'll find him, and when we do
and we've got this thing working...

well, then, my friend, then...

this young man will be a liability.

Well, that will be my problem.

- Our problem.
- No, Lyman.

When the time comes,
I'll handle it.

You better.

What does he want us to do
when we find him?

Lily.

Come on.

"Leesburg, Virginia.

C-Systems."

Who are they?

Not cops.

Cops carry badges, credit cards...

pictures oftheir families.

If it's crowded, don't go in.

Okay.

- Hi.
- Hello.

- Can I help you?
- Uh, yes, please.

I'd like to send some flowers and a note
to a friend of mine in Virginia.

It's a little strange, Mr. Shannon...

but thesejust arrived.

I'm not quite sure who they're from.
Here's a note.

May I see that?

Thankyou.

Hold it right there, buddy. F.B.I.

Step outside the van, please.

Why don't you bring
your invoice sheet out with you.

Do you know ifthe order
originated at this shop?

Uh, I don't think so.
I think it was a wire from Georgetown.

- Mind if I take one ofthese?
- No. Sure.

Have a nice day.

So, officially, this investigation
now code-named Steel Bomb.

We'll use that name and input the data
into Rapid Start.

Look at what I brought back
from the flower shop.

I think this is Kasalivich.

"Spawn vs. Neanderthal Man.
4:00 p.m. today."

What is this, a wrestling match?

Bad movie? Video game?

Spawn—
it's a comic book character, boss.

Yeah. That's the guy who
come back from the dead, right?

Yeah. Like Kasalivich.

So maybe Shannon
is the Neanderthal Man.

Very well may be.

Hello, Eddie.

Glad you got the flowers.

Very clever.

You all right?

No, not really.

I guess I can understand that.

We were at Maggie's. Caught.
About to be arrested, Paul.

Somebody shot the cop.

Later, two guys tried to kill us.

I've got my car outside.
Follow me.

We'll go someplace where we can talk.

I found this
in one ofthe guys' wallets.

They weren't cops.

What do you know
about C-Systems, Paul?

This is not the time or the place, Eddie.
We're being watched.

Eddie, the world isn't quite as simple
as we'd like it to be.

Just doesn't work that way.

Shannon, who are you?

I'm your friend, Eddie.

I may be your only friend.

Is it you, Paul?

Are you responsible for all this?

Time to go, Eddie.

We've got a job to complete.

The experiment needs verifying.

Do yourwork,
this will all be over.

Eddie, we're beyond that now.

Let'sjust get this done.

Come back to work with me.
You'll have your life back. I promise you.

You don't control our lives.

You'll have to trust me, Eddie.

Just like Alistair?

Eddie!

Eddie!

A trip that normally
takes five and a half hours...

but todayyou'll experience everything
that happens during that flight...

in just seven minutes,
from takeoffto landing.

Already up in the cockpit,
the crew is preparing for takeoff.

Our pilot for today's flight
is Captain Dave Larsen.

Stay here.

Our copilot is First Officer Rachel Guinness.

Get in.

She's in the hatch.

Look out!

The crew is going through
their final preflight checks.

They're ready to taxi to the runway.

Eddie!

Eddie, come on, man.
Don't do anything foolish.

- Rudders check.
- Flight attendants, prepare for contact.

Look out!

Get Ford.

D.C. policejust reported a disturbance
at the science museum...

in front of
the Neanderthal Man exhibit.

CQ493. CQ493.

Unseated in front of entrance. We're going in.

Here you are, darling.
Drink this.

You're dehydrated.
Flush it out ofyour system.

Mr. Collier and I have a few colleagues
we'd like you to meet.

Dr. Holloway,
Dr. Hamada and Dr. Orbit.

They're very interested
to discuss yourwork with you.

Oh, and ofcourse
Dr. Lu Chen.

Lu.

Lily...

we would very much like
foryou and Dr. Chen...

to continue the work
you've been doing with Dr. Barkley.

You can't be serious.

Oh, yes.

We've been impressed with your work
for a long time.

Do you drug and kidnap everyone
whose work you admire?

No.

Dr. Barkley we left behind.

Slay the dreamer, eh, Mr. Shannon?

You end up sleeping on the street!

I can't believe howyou can do that!

Don't even say that!

Spare some change? A quarter?
A quarter? What's a quarter?

l mean, two bits? Two bits?

You can't even see me?

- I care about your mother!
- Yeah, you should!

She gave you me!

Can I share your grate?

You make me sick!

- You wanna hit me? Hit me!
- Yeah, I do!

You make me sick!

Yeah, I do! You make me—

Shut up!

We can't go back inside!
We got kicked out again!

What are all you looking at?

He's crazy! Let go!

Come on!

CQ493.

This is Eddie.

I think. He does.

But he really does.

What are you watching,
Honeymooner reruns?

No.
Kasalivich and Barkley.

Does that look like a kid
who's about to kill this guy...

then blow the whole place up
in a couple of hours?

Whole thing stinks.
Thanks.

We got the ballistics report back
on that trooper that got killed in Wisconsin.

High-powered Teflon sniper round.

- Went right through the cop's Kevlarvest.
- l don't buy it.

He's smart enough to blow up the lab...

but stupid enough to leave a quarter of
a million bucks so we'd be sure to find it?

So what are you saying?
Some cowboys have gone offthe reservation?

Hundred bucks.
Kid didn't do it.

You got a nationwide manhunt
for an innocent man.

Make sure nobody shoots him.

And I—

I help with some ofthe lectures.

First shift's going down now, okay?

I'll have to hold over two guys.

Yeah, I'll have to hold over
Morris and La Motta.

Yeah, right.
Help me out on this, will you?

I've had problems with conveyor belts.

Yeah. I'm gonna have—
Yeah. Yeah.

No, no. l'm going to
haveJim Zinski work on that.

Okay? All right.

Ifyou got any problems,
give me a call on channel four. Okay?

How is ouryoung charge?
Did she say anything?

Well, we'll soon
find out, won't we?

- The young lady does appear to be cooperating.
- Good.

Gentlemen, you'rejust in time.

Well, let's get on with it.

Miss Sinclair, Mr. Chen, please,
have a seat.

Attention, all personnel, level five.

Critical path experiment
will commence in 1 0 minutes.

Critical path experiment
will commence in 1 0 minutes, level five.

Yeah, he and Sally are~

Activate the H2 compressor.

On automatic.

Here we go.

- Lucasz, what are you reading?
- Two million Kelvin.

Activate the laser.

Four million Kelvin.

We don't have it.
lt's unstable.

Shut it down.
Shut it down.

- Damn it!
- What a joke.

It won't work without
the right frequencies.

What did he say?

He said that's what he's been
trying to tell you for days.

Look. Let's try it again
in the morning. Okay?

See you back here at 8:1 5 tomorrow.
All right?

l have a feeling, Dr. Sinclair,
the solution will present itself.

I doubt it.

It better, oryour usefulness
will soon be outlived.

Take them back to their room.

I wish you wouldn't threaten
to kill my scientists right to their faces.

It might make myjob easier.

Lucasz, Hamada, seal the lab.

And I want to see those printouts
first thing in the morning.

- It's working?
- Yes, sir.

How?

Lucasz claims he figured it out.

- Lucasz?
- That's his story.

Next time you call me.
You understand me? You got it?

Uh-huh.

- You should have seen it when I got here, Lyman.
- Uh-huh.

I mean, the output was going
right through the roof.

Son of a bitch.

It really does work.
Ha!

Dr. Shannon, take a look at that.

We've got it.

All of you! I'm so proud!

What did you do?

Nothing.

Well, uh,
I couldn't sleep last night, sir.

I heard this voice saying...

go down and check
different frequencies...

because we were trying
on 1 5 and 20 megahertz.

So I went down to the lab
and ran the experiment...

and it all worked out.

So, here we are, sir.

- Did you document the regulator frequencies?
- Not yet.

I'd like those on a disk.
Now, sir.

None too shabby, eh, Mr. Shannon?

- Doctor.
- Thankyou.

Where are you going, Paul?

l'm going to check this
against the Chicago data.

I'll try to meet you at the silo.

- Wait as long as you can.
- Yes, sir.

Hello, Eddie.

Figured it was you.

Nice place you have here, Shannon.

1 0 megajoule lasers...

particle reactors.

You know, Congress defunded
most ofthe stuffdown here years ago.

They made a mistake.

Is this part ofthe Moore Foundation?

In a manner ofspeaking.

Power and money.
Is that what this was all about?

I'm afraid it's a little more
complicated than that, Eddie.

He was a 60-year-old scientist
who did nothing but good...

and they put a bag over his head.

It was a mistake.

Last thing l wanted was for something
to happen to Alistair...

but a decision had to be made...

so—

Who made the decision?
You?

That's myjob.

That's what I'm paid to do.

I'm paid to do dirty work...

the work people
don't want to know about.

People want to live in their split-level homes
and eat microwave dinners and watch color TV.

Is that what you think?

Alistairwas a dreamer—

Clean air, free energy.

Noble concepts.

But we live on a planet
that's addicted to petroleum.

Now, what happens ifyou dump
free energy onto the world market?

Stock markets around the world
would plummet.

Our own economy
would collapse overnight.

Recession, unemployment, war.

The world is speeding up
too fast now, Eddie.

We can barely hold on as it is.

You're right.
It's not working.

That's why we gotta try something else—
not bury the technology, but let it out.

You let it out...

but you let it out at a pace
the world can absorb.

It can absorb it now.

There's our boy.

Mr. Kasalivich,
how kind ofyou tojoin us.

Give us a moment, Lyman.

Eddie and I
are having a conversation.

Please, don't let me stop you.

Who runs this place, Shannon,
you or the guy with the guns?

Well, we are a cooperative ofsorts...

run at the behest
ofthe United States government.

But without their knowledge, right?

My, my, but your friend is sharp, Paul.

All right, Eddie, what do you want?

There are the specs
for the regulator.

You can pull the frequencies
offthe computer. Now let us go.

I get it to work,
you give us our lives back.

That was the deal, wasn't it?

Yeah.

Yeah, that was the deal.

I'm afraid, young man,
your position is non-negotiable.

I see.

I want to tell you the story
how I got inspired.

I had this dream.

Hold on. I will continue.

Lucasz speak~

What's happening?

What did you just do?

I just told the F.B.I.
I was willing to surrender.

Oh, and, uh, I thinkyour experiment
just got a mind of its own.

Check the breakers.

Everybody, back to your stations!

What the hell is going on, Doyle?

Itjust started a couple minutes ago.

Hundreds of pages:
technical drawings...

specs for scientific experiments...

budgets, personnel records...

minutes of meetings.

Most ofthem are marked "top secret."

- Where's it coming from?
- C-Systems.

Looks like they dumped
their entire mainframe onto our fax...

and into our computers.

- Here's a special love notejust foryou.
-Jesus Christ. Kasalivich.

He says he's in a bunker in Leesburg, Virginia,
with some of his bomb-making buddies.

He wants us to come arrest him.

Lake Geneva radical bomb network?

Yeah.
Sound like bullshit?

Sounds like you owe me 1 00 bucks.

Make sure that fax machine
doesn't run out of paper.

- Hamada?
- Still off-line.

Pressure?

Pressure's 500 P.S.I. and rising.

What the hell's going on?

We've lost control
ofthe system, Lyman.

We can't shut it down.

- Turn it off.
- It's self-sustaining.

It can't be shut down.

Al, how long before
we run out ofstorage capacity?

I don't know.
It's accelerating.

- What do you say, Eddie?
20 minutes before it blows?
- Maybe less.

- Is he right?
- I'm afraid he is.

Well done, Eddie.
Well done.

You wouldn't blow it up...

ifyou weren't sure you were
going to get out of here alive.

Sure, I would.

Lyman, I think it's time
we got the hell out of here.

- Chen! Chen!
- Lily!

For God's sake, Lyman!

Chen! Chen!

Wait! Wait!

- Jesus Christ!
- What is wrong with you?

- Turn it off!
- That was totally unnecessary!

Ifyou haven't got the stomach for this,
stay clear out ofthe way!

- I'm going to turn down the power
and reboot the system!
- No!

- Don't touch that!
- Don't!

Attention.
Hydrogen containment failure.

Potential personnel hazard.

The compressor'sjust shut down.

- Turn it back on, man!
- You can't.

The computers are down.

Get out!
Get out, everybody!

- Fix it!
- I can't now.

- Fix it!
- I can't!

I wouldn't do that, Lyman!

It will ignite the hydrogen!

It's over, Lyman!
It's over!

I guess it's time to go.

Go! Go!

Give me the disk!

You two, stay!

No, Lyman! Let them go!

What possible difference
can it make now?

They stay!

- When does it end, Lyman?
- Never.

Well, it's not your decision.

The decision is mine,
and I say they are coming!

You can stay with them ifyou like.

We must go now!

Well, are you coming?

Warning. Warning.
Contaminants at critical level.

Come on, Paul! We got things to do!

I'm sorry, Eddie.

- Shannon!
- Shannon!

Please!

Warning. Warning.
Contaminants at critical level.

Evacuate.

Warning.
Contaminants at critical level.

Evacuate immediately.

All containment doors are now closed.

The tanks.

Okay, here's the elevator.

There's room for everybody!

All right, I'm looking for two men.

Paul Shannon and Lyman Collier—
hang on to them.

Follow the blue evacuation route arrow...

to the elevators.

Move in an orderly fashion
quickly and quietly.

Gentlemen, our friends from the F.B.I.
will be here presently.

Anita, we're on our way.

You two go to the north elevator.
I'll take it from here.

Come on.
Come on, Lily.

Eddie, which way?

By the way, Paul,
do you have that disk...

the one with the magic frequency?

Thankyou so much.

You know, Paul,
maybe it's time to call it a day.

Maybe we're getting too old for this.

What do you think, huh?

But then again,
what would we do?

What would we do, hmm?

I didn't tell you, Lyman...

but your retirement
had already been arranged.

Containment systems off.

Access restored
to all areas.

Containment systems off.

Hey, hold up! Hold up!
Take it up! Take it up!

They got a 20 on Kasalivich?

They found the stolen truck
at the construction site, one mile to the west.

Hold on.

Eddie, look. There.

Damn it! Come on!

Get up! Get up!
Get up! Come on! We gotta go!

I thought you said the hole was cleared.

Get back in the seat, Ernie!

Eddie.

Lily, get in the basket!

- Get out of here!
- Go!

Eddie, come on!

Eddie!

Hold on. Hold on, Eddie.
Hold on.

Get out of here! Come on! Go, go, go!

Come on, Eddie.

Come on, Eddie!

Come on!

Pull it up! Pull it up!

Holy— Did you see that?

Whoa.

Come on, Ernie!
Get them out ofthere!

Eddie Kasalivich.

Agent Ford.
You got the message.

Yeah. We leveled a forest
printing the damn thing.

What's it mean, Eddie?

Plans for clean, cheap energy.

Did anybody else get this?

Hopefully a couple thousand
world-renowned scientists.

- I knew I liked this kid.
- Yeah, right, Leon.

Come on.

You got some questions to answer
in Washington for about six weeks.

- That's okay.
- We've got a lot to talk about.

As long as everyone
stops shooting at us.

Doyle, split them up.
I'll meet you back at the office.

Ford!

Dr. Sinclair and I ride together.

All right. Come on.
Both ofyou.

Anita, take a memo.

To the director ofCentral Intelligence.

C-Systems no longer a viable entity.

Will be in contact.

That's it.

Whoa!
