00:01:32,541 --> 00:01:33,941
<i>I used to think</i>

3
00:01:33,943 --> 00:01:36,711
<i>this was the beginning
of your story.</i>

4
00:01:43,485 --> 00:01:45,820
<i>Memory is a strange thing.</i>

5
00:01:47,055 --> 00:01:50,391
<i>It doesn't work
like I thought it did.</i>

6
00:01:50,393 --> 00:01:55,096
<i>We are so bound by time,
by its order.</i>

7
00:02:16,518 --> 00:02:17,585
Okay.

8
00:02:23,525 --> 00:02:26,427
Okay. Come back to me.

9
00:02:26,429 --> 00:02:28,062
Come back to me.

10
00:02:29,064 --> 00:02:31,065
Come back to me.

11
00:02:31,067 --> 00:02:32,833
Stick 'em up!

12
00:02:34,003 --> 00:02:37,505
Are you the sheriff
in this here town?

13
00:02:37,507 --> 00:02:40,741
These are my tickle guns,
and I'm gonna getcha!

14
00:02:40,743 --> 00:02:42,476
No!

15
00:02:42,478 --> 00:02:46,013
You want me to chase you?
You better run!

16
00:02:47,816 --> 00:02:50,551
Ah!
Oh!

17
00:03:05,100 --> 00:03:07,735
<i>I remember
moments in the middle.</i>

18
00:03:10,806 --> 00:03:12,773
I love you.

19
00:03:13,708 --> 00:03:15,042
I hate you!

20
00:03:27,123 --> 00:03:29,089
<i>And this was the end.</i>

21
00:03:30,827 --> 00:03:31,692
Shhh...

22
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,934
Come back to me.

23
00:03:39,936 --> 00:03:41,802
You come back to me.

24
00:03:57,152 --> 00:03:58,686
<i>But now I'm not so sure</i>

25
00:03:58,688 --> 00:04:00,888
<i>I believe in beginnings
and endings.</i>

26
00:04:01,756 --> 00:04:06,026
<i>There are days that define
your story beyond your life.</i>

27
00:04:07,662 --> 00:04:09,763
<i>Like the day they arrived.</i>

28
00:04:21,176 --> 00:04:22,676
Good morning.

29
00:04:22,678 --> 00:04:23,544
Morning.

30
00:04:26,915 --> 00:04:28,983
Where is everyone?

31
00:04:30,519 --> 00:04:32,753
Okay. Well,
let's get started.

32
00:04:32,755 --> 00:04:35,656
Today we are talking
about Portuguese

33
00:04:35,658 --> 00:04:37,758
and why it sounds
so different

34
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,060
from the other
romance languages.

35
00:04:40,062 --> 00:04:44,598
The story of Portuguese begins
in the kingdom of galicia...

36
00:04:46,068 --> 00:04:47,601
Sorry.

37
00:04:47,603 --> 00:04:49,870
...in the middle ages,

38
00:04:49,872 --> 00:04:53,641
where language was seen
as an expression of art.

39
00:05:00,550 --> 00:05:02,883
Any news
you want to share?

40
00:05:02,885 --> 00:05:06,220
Dr. banks, can you turn
the TV to a news channel?

41
00:05:22,571 --> 00:05:25,706
<i>...but police have
already set up a blockade</i>

42
00:05:25,708 --> 00:05:26,974
<i>here around the area.</i>

43
00:05:26,979 --> 00:05:28,276
<i>As you can see,</i>

44
00:05:28,376 --> 00:05:29,944
<i>we've got just about
as close as we can,</i>

45
00:05:29,949 --> 00:05:30,546
<i>but unfortunately,</i>

46
00:05:30,746 --> 00:05:34,114
<i>Montana right now
is on complete lockdown.</i>

47
00:05:34,116 --> 00:05:37,251
<i>The object apparently
touched down 40 minutes ago,</i>

48
00:05:37,253 --> 00:05:39,186
<i>just north of i-94.</i>

49
00:05:39,188 --> 00:05:41,789
<i>We're waiting to hear
if this is perhaps</i>

50
00:05:41,791 --> 00:05:44,592
<i>an experimental vessel or...</i>

51
00:05:44,594 --> 00:05:46,727
<i>Hold on, it...</i>

52
00:05:46,729 --> 00:05:50,764
<i>I'm learning that more objects
like this have landed in</i>

53
00:05:50,766 --> 00:05:52,800
<i>as many as
eight other locations</i>

54
00:05:52,802 --> 00:05:54,868
<i>around the world.</i>

55
00:05:54,870 --> 00:05:56,737
<i>Yes, can we?</i>

56
00:05:56,739 --> 00:06:00,007
<i>This is from
a site in hokkaido.</i>

57
00:06:00,009 --> 00:06:03,744
<i>This is worldwide.
It is happening right now.</i>

58
00:06:09,684 --> 00:06:11,652
Okay. Um...

59
00:06:12,721 --> 00:06:14,622
I'm sorry.
Class is dismissed.

60
00:06:54,930 --> 00:06:57,731
You are an idiot!
You drove right into me!

61
00:06:59,201 --> 00:07:02,202
You just ruined my car!

62
00:07:02,204 --> 00:07:05,072
<i>For now, we're simply
asking for cooperation</i>

63
00:07:05,074 --> 00:07:07,207
<i>while authorities
assess the object.</i>

64
00:07:07,209 --> 00:07:09,810
<i>So,
you're saying it's not ours?</i>

65
00:07:09,812 --> 00:07:11,278
<i>Do you even know
if it's from earth?</i>

66
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:12,813
<i>We're still collecting
information.</i>

67
00:07:12,815 --> 00:07:14,081
<i>We're coordinating
with other countries.</i>

68
00:07:14,083 --> 00:07:16,016
<i>We're not the only ones to</i>

69
00:07:16,018 --> 00:07:18,218
<i>have one of these
in our backyard.</i>

70
00:07:18,220 --> 00:07:21,321
<i>If this is some sort
of peaceful first contact,</i>

71
00:07:21,323 --> 00:07:23,057
<i>why send 12?</i>

72
00:07:23,059 --> 00:07:24,858
<i>Why not just one?</i>

73
00:07:35,070 --> 00:07:37,438
Yeah, I know.
I saw that, too.

74
00:07:40,375 --> 00:07:42,409
Uh-huh.

75
00:07:46,381 --> 00:07:49,316
Uh-huh. I don't know, mom.

76
00:07:49,318 --> 00:07:52,119
I'm watching the same
news coverage you are.

77
00:07:55,056 --> 00:07:59,226
Well, mom, please don't
bother with that channel.

78
00:07:59,228 --> 00:08:01,795
How many times
do I have to tell you?

79
00:08:01,797 --> 00:08:03,163
Those people are idiots.

80
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,801
Yeah, well,
do I sound nervous?

81
00:08:08,737 --> 00:08:10,471
Okay. Exactly. So...

82
00:08:11,873 --> 00:08:14,274
Um, me? Yeah, um,
you know me.

83
00:08:14,276 --> 00:08:16,210
I'm about the same.

84
00:08:20,215 --> 00:08:22,349
Mom, I'm fine.

85
00:08:23,284 --> 00:08:26,086
Okay, I'll call you later.
Bye.

86
00:08:34,963 --> 00:08:37,765
<i>And around eight
hours after landing,</i>

87
00:08:37,767 --> 00:08:39,900
<i>there are still no signs
of what might be called</i>

88
00:08:39,909 --> 00:08:40,902
<i>"first contact."</i>

89
00:08:41,002 --> 00:08:45,038
<i>Now, the objects measure
at least 1,500 feet tall...</i>

90
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,775
<i>Two are reported to have
penetrated Russian airspace.</i>

91
00:08:47,777 --> 00:08:51,178
<i>One in Siberia, and the other
off the coast of the black...</i>

92
00:08:51,180 --> 00:08:53,013
<i>...above the ocean.</i>

93
00:08:53,015 --> 00:08:55,382
<i>So far, there are
12 unidentified objects</i>

94
00:08:55,389 --> 00:08:56,584
<i>spread across the globe.</i>

95
00:08:56,684 --> 00:08:59,453
<i>There is no obvious logic
to their locations</i>

96
00:08:59,455 --> 00:09:02,256
<i>and no evidence that
the ships are even occu...</i>

97
00:09:02,258 --> 00:09:05,926
<i>...entertain the idea that
if it is a kind of vessel,</i>

98
00:09:05,928 --> 00:09:08,328
<i>it may be unmanned.</i>

99
00:09:08,330 --> 00:09:11,398
<i>Regardless, we have a protocol
for scenarios like this.</i>

100
00:10:20,001 --> 00:10:22,135
<i>After Tuesday's
extraordinary events,</i>

101
00:10:22,137 --> 00:10:25,239
<i>the president this morning has
declared a state of emergency,</i>

102
00:10:25,241 --> 00:10:27,140
<i>with as many as
5,000 national guard</i>

103
00:10:27,142 --> 00:10:29,376
<i>being deployed to
the state of Montana alone.</i>

104
00:10:29,378 --> 00:10:32,012
<i>Borders are closed and
flights have been grounded,</i>

105
00:10:32,014 --> 00:10:33,981
<i>stranding millions
of travelers.</i>

106
00:10:33,983 --> 00:10:36,283
<i>Panic buying of gas,
water and food</i>

107
00:10:36,285 --> 00:10:38,151
<i>continues to escalate,</i>

108
00:10:38,153 --> 00:10:40,020
<i>and federal authorities
have temporarily lifted</i>

109
00:10:40,022 --> 00:10:43,090
<i>all caps on overtime
for law enforcement.</i>

110
00:10:43,092 --> 00:10:46,026
<i>The atf has put a temporary
ban on new gun licenses,</i>

111
00:10:46,028 --> 00:10:48,161
<i>forcing many
independent suppliers of</i>

112
00:10:48,163 --> 00:10:50,230
<i>hunting equipment and firearms</i>

113
00:10:50,232 --> 00:10:52,232
<i>to close their doors
to the public.</i>

114
00:10:52,234 --> 00:10:54,568
<i>Forty-eight hours later
and no further development...</i>

115
00:10:54,570 --> 00:10:56,003
Two days...

116
00:10:56,005 --> 00:10:58,071
<i>...from the site of
the 12 ufos.</i>

117
00:10:58,073 --> 00:10:59,439
...and already,
the public expects us

118
00:10:59,441 --> 00:11:01,375
to know the answers.

119
00:11:01,377 --> 00:11:03,377
I'm colonel g.T. Weber.

120
00:11:05,178 --> 00:11:06,179
We never formally met,

121
00:11:06,180 --> 00:11:08,181
but two years ago, you did
some Farsi translations

122
00:11:08,183 --> 00:11:09,583
for army intelligence.

123
00:11:09,589 --> 00:11:10,385
Oh.

124
00:11:10,585 --> 00:11:13,520
You made quick work
of those insurgent videos.

125
00:11:13,522 --> 00:11:15,956
You made quick work
of those insurgents.

126
00:11:18,126 --> 00:11:21,161
You are on the top of
everyone's list

127
00:11:21,163 --> 00:11:23,463
when it comes
to translations.

128
00:11:23,465 --> 00:11:27,334
And you have another
two years in your ssbi,

129
00:11:27,336 --> 00:11:29,469
so you still have
top-secret clearance.

130
00:11:29,471 --> 00:11:32,940
That's why I'm in your
office and not at Berkeley.

131
00:11:34,075 --> 00:11:35,409
Okay.

132
00:11:43,584 --> 00:11:46,219
I have something I need you
to translate for me.

133
00:11:54,462 --> 00:11:56,563
<i>Why are you here?</i>

134
00:11:59,367 --> 00:12:02,135
<i>Can you...
Can you understand us?</i>

135
00:12:09,377 --> 00:12:11,044
<i>Where did you come from?</i>

136
00:12:19,454 --> 00:12:23,457
Now you heard it.
What do you make of it?

137
00:12:26,627 --> 00:12:28,395
Is that...

138
00:12:28,397 --> 00:12:30,130
Yes.

139
00:12:32,233 --> 00:12:34,134
How many?

140
00:12:34,136 --> 00:12:36,536
How many what?

141
00:12:36,538 --> 00:12:39,272
Um, how many, um, speaking?

142
00:12:42,076 --> 00:12:43,543
Two.

143
00:12:45,079 --> 00:12:48,415
Assume they were not
speaking at the same time.

144
00:12:48,417 --> 00:12:51,618
Are you sure?
Did they have mouths...

145
00:12:51,620 --> 00:12:55,222
How would you approach
translating this?

146
00:12:56,024 --> 00:12:59,226
Do you hear any words?
Phrases?

147
00:13:01,162 --> 00:13:04,297
I don't...
I don't know.

148
00:13:04,299 --> 00:13:06,166
So what can you tell me?

149
00:13:06,168 --> 00:13:08,402
I can tell you that
it's impossible

150
00:13:08,404 --> 00:13:10,437
to translate
from an audio file.

151
00:13:10,439 --> 00:13:13,573
I would need to be there,
to interact with them.

152
00:13:13,575 --> 00:13:16,576
You didn't need that
with the Farsi translations.

153
00:13:16,578 --> 00:13:19,513
I didn't need it because
i already knew the language,

154
00:13:19,515 --> 00:13:21,648
but this...
This is... ah...

155
00:13:24,652 --> 00:13:26,086
I know what you're doing.

156
00:13:26,088 --> 00:13:27,287
Tell me what I'm doing.

157
00:13:27,387 --> 00:13:28,589
I'm not taking you
to Montana.

158
00:13:28,689 --> 00:13:31,124
It's all I can do to keep it
from turning into a tourist site

159
00:13:31,126 --> 00:13:32,426
for everybody who
has a ts clearance.

160
00:13:32,428 --> 00:13:34,461
I'm just telling you
what it would take

161
00:13:34,463 --> 00:13:36,063
to do this job.

162
00:13:36,065 --> 00:13:37,531
This is not
a negotiation.

163
00:13:37,533 --> 00:13:41,334
If I leave here,
your chance is gone.

164
00:13:49,210 --> 00:13:51,078
Good day.

165
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:52,813
Colonel?

166
00:13:54,582 --> 00:13:56,149
You mentioned Berkeley.

167
00:13:56,151 --> 00:13:58,485
Are you going to
ask danvers next?

168
00:13:58,487 --> 00:13:59,753
Maybe.

169
00:13:59,755 --> 00:14:02,355
Before you commit to him,

170
00:14:02,357 --> 00:14:06,159
ask him the sanskrit word
for war and its translation.

171
00:14:14,169 --> 00:14:16,436
<i>An agreement on sharing
scientific discoveries</i>

172
00:14:16,438 --> 00:14:18,205
<i>looks closer tonight,</i>

173
00:14:18,207 --> 00:14:20,774
<i>as Russia and China join talks
at the united nations.</i>

174
00:14:20,776 --> 00:14:24,377
<i>Meanwhile, financial markets
across the world are in crisis</i>

175
00:14:24,379 --> 00:14:26,613
<i>as the dow Jones
industrial average fell</i>

176
00:14:26,615 --> 00:14:28,348
<i>over 2,000 points...</i>

177
00:14:46,267 --> 00:14:47,200
Morning.

178
00:14:47,202 --> 00:14:48,301
Colonel?

179
00:14:48,803 --> 00:14:50,403
<i>Gavisti.</i>

180
00:14:50,405 --> 00:14:52,405
He says it means
"an argument."

181
00:14:52,407 --> 00:14:54,141
What do you say
it means?

182
00:14:54,143 --> 00:14:55,609
A desire for more cows.

183
00:14:55,611 --> 00:14:57,310
Pack your bags.

184
00:14:58,679 --> 00:15:00,380
All right.
Give me 20 minutes?

185
00:15:00,382 --> 00:15:01,748
Takeoff in ten.

186
00:15:03,317 --> 00:15:04,684
Dr. banks.
Right this way, please.

187
00:15:19,433 --> 00:15:22,502
<i>Contact and
ready to approach...</i>

188
00:15:22,504 --> 00:15:25,172
Excuse me, Dr. banks, let me make
sure you're properly secured.

189
00:15:33,314 --> 00:15:34,581
You okay?

190
00:16:15,690 --> 00:16:18,625
<i>Sorry, I couldn't hear
what you were saying.</i>

191
00:16:18,627 --> 00:16:21,628
<i>"Language is the foundation
of civilization.</i>

192
00:16:21,630 --> 00:16:24,231
<i>"It is the glue that
holds a people together.</i>

193
00:16:24,233 --> 00:16:26,967
<i>"It is the first weapon
drawn in a conflict."</i>

194
00:16:28,302 --> 00:16:30,237
<i>Louise,
this is Ian Donnelly.</i>

195
00:16:30,239 --> 00:16:31,771
<i>Louise banks,
Ian Donnelly.</i>

196
00:16:31,773 --> 00:16:33,440
<i>That's quite a greeting.</i>

197
00:16:33,442 --> 00:16:35,442
<i>Yeah, well, you wrote it.</i>

198
00:16:35,444 --> 00:16:37,377
<i>Yeah.</i>

199
00:16:37,379 --> 00:16:39,613
<i>It's the kind of thing
you write as a preface.</i>

200
00:16:39,615 --> 00:16:41,715
<i>Dazzle them with the basics.</i>

201
00:16:41,717 --> 00:16:44,851
<i>Yeah, it's great.
Even if it's wrong.</i>

202
00:16:44,853 --> 00:16:47,354
<i>It's wrong?</i>

203
00:16:47,356 --> 00:16:49,656
<i>Well, the cornerstone of
civilization isn't language,</i>

204
00:16:49,658 --> 00:16:51,258
<i>it's science.</i>

205
00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:54,794
<i>Ian is a theoretical
physicist from los Alamos.</i>

206
00:16:55,796 --> 00:16:57,931
<i>You'll be reporting to me,
but you'll be working with him</i>

207
00:16:57,933 --> 00:16:59,532
<i>when you're in the shell.</i>

208
00:16:59,766 --> 00:17:01,167
<i>That's what
they're calling the ufo.</i>

209
00:17:01,168 --> 00:17:05,338
<i>Priority one: What do they
want and where are they from?</i>

210
00:17:05,539 --> 00:17:07,807
<i>And beyond that,
how did they get here?</i>

211
00:17:07,809 --> 00:17:10,510
<i>Are they capable of
faster-than-light travel?</i>

212
00:17:10,512 --> 00:17:13,947
<i>I've prepared a list of
questions to go over,</i>

213
00:17:13,949 --> 00:17:15,415
<i>starting with a series of</i>

214
00:17:15,417 --> 00:17:17,384
<i>"handshake"
binary sequences...</i>

215
00:17:17,386 --> 00:17:18,885
<i>How about
we just talk to them</i>

216
00:17:18,887 --> 00:17:21,454
<i>before we start throwing
math problems at them?</i>

217
00:17:23,624 --> 00:17:25,759
<i>This is why
you're both here.</i>

218
00:17:27,695 --> 00:17:29,462
<i>I'll bring
the coffee.</i>

219
00:17:31,565 --> 00:17:33,667
<i>Coffee with some aliens.</i>

220
00:19:43,564 --> 00:19:46,032
I want you to take
these two to Dr. kettler.

221
00:19:46,034 --> 00:19:47,934
Yes, sir.

222
00:19:47,936 --> 00:19:49,636
Follow the captain
to medical.

223
00:19:49,638 --> 00:19:51,438
It should take
just a few minutes,

224
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,606
and then
we'll get started.

225
00:20:04,051 --> 00:20:07,854
We'll take care of your bag.
I'll take your cell phones.

226
00:20:07,856 --> 00:20:09,823
Cell phones!

227
00:20:10,958 --> 00:20:12,859
Follow me.

228
00:20:12,861 --> 00:20:15,728
Put these on. You're gonna
wear them at all times.

229
00:20:28,576 --> 00:20:29,976
Sir, they're here.

230
00:20:30,744 --> 00:20:32,645
Louise banks?
Ian Donnelly?

231
00:20:32,947 --> 00:20:34,547
When was the last time
either of you have eaten?

232
00:20:34,549 --> 00:20:35,882
Last night.
Same.

233
00:20:35,884 --> 00:20:37,784
Last time you did
something stressful?

234
00:20:37,786 --> 00:20:39,619
Does now count?

235
00:20:40,955 --> 00:20:42,489
Just saying...

236
00:20:42,491 --> 00:20:45,191
Uh, who was being carted off
in the medevac?

237
00:20:45,193 --> 00:20:48,828
Not everyone is able to
process experiences like this.

238
00:20:48,830 --> 00:20:50,830
I'm gonna get
some blood from you

239
00:20:50,832 --> 00:20:52,599
and give you
an immunization dose

240
00:20:52,601 --> 00:20:54,801
that covers a battery
of bacterial threats.

241
00:20:54,803 --> 00:20:57,937
Could you sign these, please?
And roll up your sleeves.

242
00:20:57,939 --> 00:20:59,506
Either of you
claustrophobic?

243
00:20:59,508 --> 00:21:00,907
No.
No.

244
00:21:00,909 --> 00:21:03,610
Currently taking any medications?
Allergies?

245
00:21:03,612 --> 00:21:05,044
Pregnant?

246
00:21:05,046 --> 00:21:06,679
No.

247
00:21:06,681 --> 00:21:08,815
The booster is
a kick to your system,

248
00:21:08,817 --> 00:21:11,017
so you may experience
some side effects,

249
00:21:11,019 --> 00:21:12,752
nausea, dizziness,
headaches,

250
00:21:12,754 --> 00:21:15,522
a ringing in your ears,
like you have tinnitus.

251
00:21:15,524 --> 00:21:17,590
They wouldn't go,
either way.

252
00:21:26,902 --> 00:21:28,801
You see
what's happening to him?

253
00:21:28,901 --> 00:21:30,003
How does this even work?

254
00:21:30,103 --> 00:21:31,538
<i>The readings do not change,</i>

255
00:21:31,638 --> 00:21:32,540
<i>but I don't know,</i>

256
00:21:32,740 --> 00:21:35,008
<i>it's like we're insects
on a piece of paper,</i>

257
00:21:35,010 --> 00:21:37,176
<i>and they're easing us
out of the house.</i>

258
00:21:37,178 --> 00:21:40,013
<i>At exactly 112 minutes
and 19 seconds,</i>

259
00:21:40,015 --> 00:21:43,683
<i>gravity starts to shift
and slides us out of the room.</i>

260
00:21:43,685 --> 00:21:46,653
Have you found a scientific
explanation for it?

261
00:21:46,655 --> 00:21:48,054
Like,
is it for them?

262
00:21:48,056 --> 00:21:50,023
<i>Uh, no.
We think it's for us.</i>

263
00:21:50,025 --> 00:21:52,859
<i>Air doesn't seem to circulate
inside the chamber,</i>

264
00:21:52,861 --> 00:21:55,662
<i>so after about two hours,
we run out of oxygen.</i>

265
00:21:55,664 --> 00:21:59,165
It doesn't take 18 hours to
pump fresh air into a room.

266
00:21:59,167 --> 00:22:00,867
Atmosphere...

267
00:22:02,670 --> 00:22:03,970
Excuse me?

268
00:22:03,972 --> 00:22:06,139
If their atmosphere is
different from earth,

269
00:22:06,141 --> 00:22:07,707
it would certainly take hours

270
00:22:07,709 --> 00:22:09,976
to rebalance their O2 content
and pressure for us

271
00:22:09,978 --> 00:22:11,978
every time
they open their door.

272
00:22:11,980 --> 00:22:14,614
So, they could suffocate us
if they wanted.

273
00:22:14,616 --> 00:22:16,749
This is agent halpern
with the CIA.

274
00:22:16,751 --> 00:22:18,851
Let me get you two
to your stations.

275
00:22:18,853 --> 00:22:20,153
Yes, sir.

276
00:22:20,155 --> 00:22:22,989
Remember, we need answers
as soon as possible.

277
00:22:22,991 --> 00:22:24,857
What do they want?
Where are they from?

278
00:22:24,859 --> 00:22:26,192
Why are they here?

279
00:22:26,194 --> 00:22:27,660
This is the priority.

280
00:22:27,662 --> 00:22:29,662
Everyone, this is
Dr. Ian Donnelly.

281
00:22:29,664 --> 00:22:31,264
He'll be running
this team here.

282
00:22:31,266 --> 00:22:33,633
Have they responded
to anything?

283
00:22:33,635 --> 00:22:36,169
Shapes, patterns,
numbers, fibonacci?

284
00:22:36,171 --> 00:22:37,604
We can't tell
what they're saying

285
00:22:37,606 --> 00:22:39,639
when they respond
to "hello," so...

286
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,208
Don't get ahead of yourself.

287
00:22:44,745 --> 00:22:46,079
What have you figured out?

288
00:22:46,081 --> 00:22:49,182
We're just getting started.
Good morning!

289
00:22:49,184 --> 00:22:52,185
This is Dr. Louise banks.
She'll be heading your team.

290
00:22:52,585 --> 00:22:53,787
It's a pleasure
meeting you.

291
00:22:53,987 --> 00:22:56,322
Dr. banks is taking over the
mission from Dr. Walker.

292
00:22:57,959 --> 00:23:00,760
That's a 15-minute warning.

293
00:23:00,762 --> 00:23:02,362
You scuba-dive before?

294
00:23:05,299 --> 00:23:07,934
What kind of radiation
exposure are we walking into?

295
00:23:07,936 --> 00:23:10,236
Nominal. These are
just for safety.

296
00:23:10,238 --> 00:23:13,039
So, is there any physical
contact with the, um...

297
00:23:13,041 --> 00:23:15,908
Am I the only one having
trouble saying "aliens"?

298
00:23:15,910 --> 00:23:17,844
There's a wall.
Like, a glass wall.

299
00:23:17,846 --> 00:23:19,646
You can't
get to them.

300
00:23:20,848 --> 00:23:23,683
So, what do
they look like?

301
00:23:23,685 --> 00:23:25,852
You'll see soon enough.
Hurry up.

302
00:23:44,672 --> 00:23:47,340
<i>The suits are clumsy at first,</i>

303
00:23:47,342 --> 00:23:49,809
<i>but you get used to them.</i>

304
00:23:50,979 --> 00:23:52,912
<i>I'll open a second vehicle.</i>

305
00:24:00,354 --> 00:24:02,255
<i>We'll be there
in a few minutes.</i>

306
00:24:02,257 --> 00:24:04,424
<i>Make sure you hold on
to something.</i>

307
00:25:00,748 --> 00:25:04,250
<i>Copy, condor. We will observe,
but not initiate. Over.</i>

308
00:25:04,752 --> 00:25:06,419
Watch your step.

309
00:25:07,421 --> 00:25:09,422
<i>We'll keep
Alpha channel open. Over.</i>

310
00:25:09,424 --> 00:25:12,158
<i>Alpha, be advised.
Humidity increased since yesterday.</i>

311
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,193
<i>Every 18 hours,</i>

312
00:25:14,195 --> 00:25:16,429
<i>the door opens up
at the bottom.</i>

313
00:25:18,966 --> 00:25:20,833
<i>That's where we go in.</i>

314
00:25:30,177 --> 00:25:30,965
<i>Zero movement.</i>

315
00:25:31,165 --> 00:25:33,246
<i>Alpha detail, clear
to proceed. Over.</i>

316
00:25:33,446 --> 00:25:34,447
<i>Copy, condor.</i>

317
00:25:34,448 --> 00:25:36,482
<i>Beginning our ascent now.
Over.</i>

318
00:25:41,922 --> 00:25:43,990
<i>Ten feet.</i>

319
00:25:47,494 --> 00:25:49,395
<i>Five feet.</i>

320
00:25:50,831 --> 00:25:53,132
<i>Two, one...</i>

321
00:26:10,851 --> 00:26:13,286
<i>Alpha clear to enter
antechamber.</i>

322
00:26:21,996 --> 00:26:23,963
<i>Moving into position.</i>

323
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:34,841
<i>Thirty feet from target.</i>

324
00:26:34,842 --> 00:26:39,111
<i>Suit telemetry now full strength,
despite unknown interference.</i>

325
00:26:47,254 --> 00:26:49,989
<i>Three, two, one.</i>

326
00:27:11,311 --> 00:27:14,113
<i>Oxygen level: 20.3%.</i>

327
00:27:14,115 --> 00:27:16,616
<i>No known contaminates. Over.</i>

328
00:27:29,396 --> 00:27:31,564
<i>Radio signals are decreasing.</i>

329
00:27:31,566 --> 00:27:34,600
<i>90%, 85%...</i>

330
00:27:53,186 --> 00:27:55,288
Yeah, that just happened.

331
00:28:15,475 --> 00:28:16,943
<i>All right,
let's move!</i>

332
00:28:16,945 --> 00:28:18,144
<i>Time is wasting.</i>

333
00:28:18,946 --> 00:28:21,280
<i>You ready? You ready?</i>

334
00:28:22,249 --> 00:28:24,116
<i>Let's do it!</i>

335
00:28:24,118 --> 00:28:27,286
<i>Condor, I'm proceeding first
with captain marks, over.</i>

336
00:28:34,061 --> 00:28:37,129
<i>Gravity nominal
in the antechamber. Over!</i>

337
00:28:37,131 --> 00:28:39,332
<i>It's all good, sir.</i>

338
00:28:39,334 --> 00:28:41,133
<i>You can proceed.</i>

339
00:28:41,135 --> 00:28:43,569
<i>Stand by!
Okay, bring it up.</i>

340
00:28:49,141 --> 00:28:50,142
<i>Vitals are low.</i>

341
00:28:50,143 --> 00:28:53,446
<i>Radio signal strength
stable at 75%. Over.</i>

342
00:28:55,082 --> 00:28:57,049
You okay?

343
00:28:59,420 --> 00:29:01,020
Yeah.

344
00:29:02,022 --> 00:29:03,589
Dr. banks?

345
00:29:07,427 --> 00:29:10,529
<i>You can do this. Come on.</i>

346
00:29:10,531 --> 00:29:12,398
<i>I don't know. I... I think...</i>

347
00:29:21,141 --> 00:29:22,742
<i>Grab her.</i>

348
00:29:35,188 --> 00:29:37,256
<i>Donnelly,
are you all right?</i>

349
00:29:38,458 --> 00:29:40,526
Dr. Donnelly, you good?

350
00:29:42,195 --> 00:29:44,463
<i>Dr. Donnelly,
are you all right?</i>

351
00:29:44,465 --> 00:29:46,532
<i>Please respond. Over.</i>

352
00:29:46,534 --> 00:29:48,267
<i>Yeah.</i>

353
00:29:51,204 --> 00:29:53,272
<i>Holy fuck!</i>

354
00:29:58,078 --> 00:29:59,412
<i>We're gonna
go down there,</i>

355
00:29:59,414 --> 00:30:02,281
<i>and you're gonna
start your job.</i>

356
00:30:02,283 --> 00:30:04,083
<i>Okay.
Okay?</i>

357
00:30:04,085 --> 00:30:05,284
<i>Okay.</i>

358
00:30:05,384 --> 00:30:06,486
<i>Everybody, move out!</i>

359
00:30:06,686 --> 00:30:08,220
<i>Alpha detail is in position.</i>

360
00:30:08,222 --> 00:30:09,755
<i>Team is in position.</i>

361
00:30:09,757 --> 00:30:11,424
<i>We're on the move.</i>

362
00:30:57,137 --> 00:30:59,338
<i>Condor, Alpha's now
in the nave.</i>

363
00:30:59,639 --> 00:31:02,174
<i>Setting up equipment
and telemetry. Over.</i>

364
00:31:34,674 --> 00:31:37,643
So, what happens now?

365
00:31:40,413 --> 00:31:42,214
They arrive.

366
00:32:45,745 --> 00:32:47,479
<i>Dr. banks?</i>

367
00:32:52,419 --> 00:32:54,553
Dr. banks?

368
00:32:55,555 --> 00:32:57,423
You can start.

369
00:33:02,229 --> 00:33:03,929
<i>...in airlock.</i>

370
00:33:03,931 --> 00:33:06,765
<i>Do not stop until you have
passed the airlock door.</i>

371
00:33:06,767 --> 00:33:08,801
<i>Do not attempt to
remove Hazmat suits</i>

372
00:33:08,803 --> 00:33:11,770
<i>without assistance
from authorized personnel.</i>

373
00:33:11,772 --> 00:33:13,439
<i>Repeat: Hazmat suits</i>

374
00:33:13,441 --> 00:33:16,442
<i>without assistance
from authorized personnel.</i>

375
00:33:16,444 --> 00:33:18,377
Wait. Just a minute.
Just a minute.

376
00:33:31,423 --> 00:33:32,424
Clear.

377
00:33:32,425 --> 00:33:33,659
- All right.
- Step on out, please.

378
00:33:33,827 --> 00:33:34,893
Now hold that.

379
00:33:37,931 --> 00:33:39,698
Am I fired?

380
00:33:39,933 --> 00:33:42,534
You're better
than the last guy.

381
00:33:42,536 --> 00:33:45,004
That doesn't
make me feel any better.

382
00:33:46,606 --> 00:33:49,808
You both have till 02:00 hours
to figure something out.

383
00:33:49,810 --> 00:33:52,411
Okay. What happens then?

384
00:33:52,413 --> 00:33:54,380
You go back in.

385
00:34:27,847 --> 00:34:30,015
<i>Violence continues to spread</i>

386
00:34:30,017 --> 00:34:32,985
<i>across the us today in
the wake of the 12 landings.</i>

387
00:34:32,987 --> 00:34:34,453
<i>The president has declared</i>

388
00:34:34,455 --> 00:34:36,455
<i>a mandatory
dusk-to-dawn curfew</i>

389
00:34:36,457 --> 00:34:38,624
<i>after the crackdown
by the national guard failed</i>

390
00:34:38,626 --> 00:34:41,493
<i>to prevent a third night of
looting across the country.</i>

391
00:34:41,495 --> 00:34:44,530
<i>In north Dakota,
144 members of</i>

392
00:34:44,532 --> 00:34:46,365
<i>the Saint Lawrence
pentecostal cult</i>

393
00:34:46,367 --> 00:34:49,368
<i>are feared dead after they set
their compound ablaze.</i>

394
00:34:49,370 --> 00:34:51,770
<i>Their website claims
the arrival of the aliens</i>

395
00:34:51,772 --> 00:34:53,605
<i>set in motion
a prophesy that...</i>

396
00:35:13,493 --> 00:35:16,528
Uh, we're up in 15.
You got any new intel?

397
00:35:16,530 --> 00:35:20,632
<i>Yeah, we've been playing back
some of their sounds.</i>

398
00:35:20,634 --> 00:35:22,368
Where does that get you?

399
00:35:22,370 --> 00:35:23,969
<i>Well, they play audio
back at us,</i>

400
00:35:23,971 --> 00:35:26,372
<i>from an unseen source.</i>

401
00:35:26,374 --> 00:35:27,806
Audio of what?

402
00:35:27,808 --> 00:35:30,042
<i>Uh, it's bits of conversation
from the room.</i>

403
00:35:30,044 --> 00:35:32,010
<i>Random clips of dialogue.</i>

404
00:35:32,846 --> 00:35:35,481
<i>Really, we have nothing.</i>

405
00:35:36,550 --> 00:35:40,386
<i>T-minus 14 minutes
to shell access.</i>

406
00:35:40,388 --> 00:35:42,388
<i>T-minus 14 minutes
to shell access.</i>

407
00:36:04,544 --> 00:36:07,413
<i>T-minus 9 minutes
to shell access.</i>

408
00:36:07,415 --> 00:36:10,482
<i>T-minus 9 minutes
to shell access.</i>

409
00:36:10,484 --> 00:36:11,950
<i>What's that for?</i>

410
00:36:11,952 --> 00:36:13,952
<i>A visual aid.</i>

411
00:36:13,954 --> 00:36:16,789
<i>Look, I'm never gonna be
able to speak their words,</i>

412
00:36:16,889 --> 00:36:18,091
<i>if they are talking,</i>

413
00:36:18,291 --> 00:36:21,427
<i>but they might have some
sort of written language</i>

414
00:36:21,429 --> 00:36:23,429
<i>or basis for
visual communication.</i>

415
00:36:23,431 --> 00:36:25,864
<i>Okay.
Let's get started.</i>

416
00:36:35,942 --> 00:36:37,209
<i>Human.</i>

417
00:37:05,038 --> 00:37:06,705
<i>"Human."</i>

418
00:37:09,876 --> 00:37:13,912
<i>I'm human. What are you?</i>

419
00:37:25,124 --> 00:37:26,825
<i>Human.</i>

420
00:38:17,044 --> 00:38:18,243
<i>Oh my god!</i>

421
00:38:18,343 --> 00:38:19,545
<i>Are you getting this?</i>

422
00:38:19,745 --> 00:38:22,014
<i>Yes, sir!
It's uploading back to base camp.</i>

423
00:38:23,550 --> 00:38:26,818
<i>Louise,
that's incredible.</i>

424
00:38:41,067 --> 00:38:43,135
<i>Human.</i>

425
00:38:44,203 --> 00:38:46,271
<i>Human.</i>

426
00:38:46,273 --> 00:38:48,206
<i>Human.</i>

427
00:38:59,118 --> 00:39:02,721
<i>Okay, slow down now.</i>

428
00:39:03,690 --> 00:39:04,990
<i>Slow down.</i>

429
00:39:22,141 --> 00:39:24,610
<i>I don't wanna take away
from your success in there,</i>

430
00:39:24,612 --> 00:39:27,045
<i>but Dr. banks,
is this really the right approach?</i>

431
00:39:27,047 --> 00:39:30,315
<i>Trying to teach them
how to speak and read?</i>

432
00:39:30,317 --> 00:39:32,250
<i>That's gotta take longer.</i>

433
00:39:32,252 --> 00:39:35,721
<i>You're wrong. It's faster.</i>

434
00:39:37,724 --> 00:39:41,760
Everything you do in there, i have
to explain to a room full of men

435
00:39:41,762 --> 00:39:43,662
whose first
and last question is...

436
00:39:43,664 --> 00:39:45,764
"How can this
be used against us?"

437
00:39:45,766 --> 00:39:48,400
So you're gonna have to
give me more than that.

438
00:39:49,902 --> 00:39:51,670
Kangaroo.

439
00:39:52,639 --> 00:39:53,905
What is that?

440
00:39:53,907 --> 00:39:55,807
In 1770,

441
00:39:55,809 --> 00:39:57,309
captain James cook's ship
ran aground

442
00:39:57,311 --> 00:39:58,777
off the coast of Australia,

443
00:39:58,779 --> 00:40:00,646
and he led a party
into the country,

444
00:40:00,648 --> 00:40:02,214
and they met
the aboriginal people.

445
00:40:02,216 --> 00:40:03,915
One of the sailors
pointed at

446
00:40:03,917 --> 00:40:05,784
the animals
that hop around

447
00:40:05,786 --> 00:40:07,819
and put their babies
in their pouch,

448
00:40:07,821 --> 00:40:09,187
and he asked
what they were,

449
00:40:09,189 --> 00:40:11,390
and the aborigine said,
"kangaroo."

450
00:40:13,158 --> 00:40:14,159
And the point is?

451
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,294
It wasn't till later
that they learned that

452
00:40:16,296 --> 00:40:19,131
"kangaroo" means
"i don't understand." So,

453
00:40:19,298 --> 00:40:22,300
I need this so that we don't
misinterpret things in there.

454
00:40:22,302 --> 00:40:25,003
Otherwise, this is gonna
take 10 times as long.

455
00:40:26,873 --> 00:40:28,140
I can sell that
for now.

456
00:40:29,776 --> 00:40:31,677
But I need you to submit
your vocabulary words

457
00:40:31,679 --> 00:40:33,045
before the next session.

458
00:40:33,047 --> 00:40:34,680
Fair.

459
00:40:34,682 --> 00:40:37,215
And remember what happened
to the aborigines.

460
00:40:37,217 --> 00:40:41,153
A more advanced race
nearly wiped them out.

461
00:40:48,362 --> 00:40:49,995
It's a good story.

462
00:40:49,997 --> 00:40:51,396
Thanks.

463
00:40:52,331 --> 00:40:54,066
It's not true.

464
00:40:54,068 --> 00:40:56,201
But it proves my point.

465
00:41:13,252 --> 00:41:15,320
<i>We think
we were able to reproduce</i>

466
00:41:15,322 --> 00:41:18,190
<i>some prime number
sequences back at them.</i>

467
00:41:18,192 --> 00:41:19,891
<i>So that's something.</i>

468
00:41:19,893 --> 00:41:22,227
Well, congratulations.
You're a parrot.

469
00:41:22,229 --> 00:41:23,929
<i>It's a lot more than that,
you cheeky bastard,</i>

470
00:41:23,931 --> 00:41:25,097
<i>don't you see?</i>

471
00:41:25,099 --> 00:41:27,132
<i>They can't seem to
follow our algebra,</i>

472
00:41:27,734 --> 00:41:31,103
<i>but complex behaviors,
that clicks.</i>

473
00:41:34,273 --> 00:41:38,009
Well that doesn't make
any sense at all, does it?

474
00:41:42,381 --> 00:41:44,049
Problem is,
not everyone shares our policy

475
00:41:44,051 --> 00:41:46,118
of being open
with the aliens.

476
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,153
Have you met
general shang?

477
00:41:48,155 --> 00:41:50,388
The call sign for him
is big domino.

478
00:41:50,390 --> 00:41:51,823
Whatever shang does,

479
00:41:51,825 --> 00:41:53,892
at least four other nations
will follow.

480
00:41:53,894 --> 00:41:55,927
Louise? We have to
gain ground today.

481
00:41:55,929 --> 00:41:57,329
Okay.

482
00:41:57,331 --> 00:41:59,231
You have a vocabulary list
for me?

483
00:41:59,233 --> 00:42:00,899
I do.

484
00:42:04,971 --> 00:42:08,306
You're gonna teach them
your name and Ian's?

485
00:42:08,308 --> 00:42:10,008
Yes, so that
we can learn

486
00:42:10,010 --> 00:42:11,810
their names
if they have names,

487
00:42:11,812 --> 00:42:13,912
and then introduce
pronouns later.

488
00:42:13,914 --> 00:42:15,280
These are all
grade-school words:

489
00:42:15,282 --> 00:42:17,783
Eat, walk.

490
00:42:20,052 --> 00:42:21,853
Help me understand.

491
00:42:22,789 --> 00:42:24,389
Okay. Um...

492
00:42:27,794 --> 00:42:29,528
Oh, no, no, no!
Not the top!

493
00:42:34,967 --> 00:42:37,235
Okay, this is where
you wanna get to, right?

494
00:42:37,237 --> 00:42:38,937
That is the question.
Okay.

495
00:42:38,939 --> 00:42:41,139
So, first, we need to
make sure that

496
00:42:41,141 --> 00:42:43,275
they understand
what a question is.

497
00:42:43,277 --> 00:42:47,212
Okay, the nature of
a request for information

498
00:42:47,214 --> 00:42:48,947
along with a response.

499
00:42:48,949 --> 00:42:53,151
Then, we need to clarify
the difference between

500
00:42:53,153 --> 00:42:56,354
a specific "you"
and a collective "you,"

501
00:42:56,356 --> 00:43:00,525
because we don't wanna know
why Joe alien is here,

502
00:43:00,527 --> 00:43:03,495
we want to know
why they all landed.

503
00:43:03,497 --> 00:43:07,098
And purpose requires
an understanding of intent.

504
00:43:07,100 --> 00:43:08,400
We need to find out:

505
00:43:08,402 --> 00:43:10,402
Do they make
conscious choices?

506
00:43:10,404 --> 00:43:13,004
Or is their motivation
so instinctive

507
00:43:13,006 --> 00:43:15,874
that they don't understand
a "why" question at all?

508
00:43:15,876 --> 00:43:17,375
And... and biggest of all,

509
00:43:17,377 --> 00:43:19,845
we need to have enough
vocabulary with them

510
00:43:19,847 --> 00:43:21,479
that we understand
their answer.

511
00:43:24,016 --> 00:43:26,017
I get it.

512
00:43:26,019 --> 00:43:28,119
Stick to your list.

513
00:43:28,121 --> 00:43:29,588
Just

514
00:43:31,390 --> 00:43:33,458
don't add anything to it.

515
00:43:47,006 --> 00:43:49,074
<i>...are at 2.97.</i>

516
00:43:49,076 --> 00:43:51,209
<i>Oxygen level: 21.4%. Over.</i>

517
00:43:51,211 --> 00:43:53,945
<i>Condor, Alpha's now
in the nave.</i>

518
00:43:53,947 --> 00:43:56,882
<i>Setting up equipment
and telemetry. Over.</i>

519
00:43:56,884 --> 00:43:58,350
Let's get started.

520
00:44:08,027 --> 00:44:12,364
<i>Louise. Louise.
I am Louise.</i>

521
00:44:18,905 --> 00:44:20,906
<i>What is that?</i>

522
00:44:23,041 --> 00:44:24,042
<i>Is that a new symbol?
I can't tell.</i>

523
00:44:24,043 --> 00:44:27,312
<i>I don't know. I think it's
the symbol for human again.</i>

524
00:44:27,314 --> 00:44:30,048
<i>It just has a little
curl on the end,</i>

525
00:44:30,050 --> 00:44:32,050
<i>maybe to indicate
a question.</i>

526
00:44:32,052 --> 00:44:33,485
<i>I don't know.</i>

527
00:44:33,487 --> 00:44:34,920
<i>I don't know, Louise.</i>

528
00:44:34,922 --> 00:44:37,255
<i>I think
they're getting confused.</i>

529
00:44:37,257 --> 00:44:39,090
<i>Dr. banks,</i>

530
00:44:39,092 --> 00:44:41,126
<i>perhaps we should
move on to the next word.</i>

531
00:44:59,446 --> 00:45:00,979
<i>Dr. banks!</i>

532
00:45:02,281 --> 00:45:03,415
<i>It's okay.</i>

533
00:45:03,417 --> 00:45:04,516
<i>What's going on?</i>

534
00:45:04,518 --> 00:45:06,084
<i>Hey! What are you doing?</i>

535
00:45:06,086 --> 00:45:07,352
Yeah, I'm fine.

536
00:45:07,354 --> 00:45:09,120
<i>Are you insane?</i>

537
00:45:09,122 --> 00:45:11,122
They need to see me.

538
00:45:11,124 --> 00:45:12,624
<i>She's taking off
her Hazmat suit.</i>

539
00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:16,361
Is it okay?

540
00:45:16,362 --> 00:45:17,595
<i>You're
risking contamination.</i>

541
00:45:17,597 --> 00:45:19,230
They need to see me.

542
00:45:19,232 --> 00:45:20,665
<i>Dr. banks...</i>

543
00:45:21,965 --> 00:45:22,767
<i>Dr. banks.</i>

544
00:45:22,867 --> 00:45:24,336
<i>She's walking
towards the screen.</i>

545
00:45:27,206 --> 00:45:29,140
<i>Should we abort?</i>

546
00:45:29,142 --> 00:45:31,309
<i>Recourse noted.
Stand by for further orders.</i>

547
00:45:31,311 --> 00:45:34,079
<i>Go back to your stations.</i>

548
00:46:48,487 --> 00:46:52,123
Now that's
a proper introduction. Hey.

549
00:47:03,235 --> 00:47:05,170
Louise.

550
00:47:07,473 --> 00:47:09,307
I am Louise.

551
00:47:09,309 --> 00:47:12,544
Ian, do you want to
introduce yourself?

552
00:47:15,181 --> 00:47:16,514
<i>Uh, yeah.</i>

553
00:47:20,352 --> 00:47:22,487
Louise.

554
00:47:26,225 --> 00:47:27,826
<i>Screw it!</i>

555
00:47:31,597 --> 00:47:33,698
<i>Everybody dies, right?</i>

556
00:47:35,501 --> 00:47:39,270
<i>Sir, Donnelly is
taking off his Hazmat suit.</i>

557
00:47:39,272 --> 00:47:41,339
<i>Permission to abort?</i>

558
00:47:41,341 --> 00:47:43,108
<i>Continue the session.</i>

559
00:47:59,125 --> 00:48:00,758
Ian.

560
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,460
Louise.

561
00:48:03,662 --> 00:48:05,497
You...

562
00:48:06,765 --> 00:48:08,466
Who are you?

563
00:48:35,594 --> 00:48:37,495
I think those
are their names.

564
00:48:40,833 --> 00:48:42,800
They have names.

565
00:48:42,802 --> 00:48:45,336
So, what are
we gonna call them?

566
00:48:45,338 --> 00:48:46,838
I don't know.

567
00:48:48,240 --> 00:48:50,475
I was thinking
abbott and costello.

568
00:48:53,312 --> 00:48:54,779
Yeah.

569
00:48:54,781 --> 00:48:56,648
Yeah?
Yeah, I like it.

570
00:48:59,218 --> 00:49:01,319
I like it.

571
00:49:01,321 --> 00:49:02,687
Wow!

572
00:49:14,833 --> 00:49:17,435
<i>Team 1, exit your vehicle</i>

573
00:49:17,437 --> 00:49:21,206
<i>and proceed directly ahead
to the decontamination tent.</i>

574
00:49:26,278 --> 00:49:30,748
<i>Leave your respirator on until
you reach the equipment room.</i>

575
00:49:58,911 --> 00:50:01,646
I know. Shhh!

576
00:50:07,386 --> 00:50:10,255
<i>Team 2, exit your vehicles</i>

577
00:50:10,257 --> 00:50:13,691
<i>and continue to
the decontamination tent.</i>

578
00:50:13,693 --> 00:50:15,393
<i>Leave your respirators on</i>

579
00:50:15,395 --> 00:50:16,961
<i>and do not hesitate</i>

580
00:50:16,963 --> 00:50:18,896
<i>until you have reached
the equipment room.</i>

581
00:50:21,934 --> 00:50:23,601
<i>How do you feel?</i>

582
00:50:24,536 --> 00:50:26,437
Overworked.

583
00:50:26,439 --> 00:50:28,539
Well, I guess
i don't need to tell you

584
00:50:28,541 --> 00:50:29,941
you're putting yourself
at risk.

585
00:50:30,276 --> 00:50:33,611
There's no signs of
radiation poisoning yet.

586
00:50:33,613 --> 00:50:36,447
We'll see how
your blood tests look.

587
00:50:36,449 --> 00:50:38,950
For now, I'm gonna
give you another boost.

588
00:50:38,952 --> 00:50:40,551
Okay.

589
00:50:40,553 --> 00:50:42,453
No radiation.

590
00:50:42,455 --> 00:50:44,289
Nothing else
we can detect either,

591
00:50:44,291 --> 00:50:46,658
but I'd give them a strong
cocktail, regardless.

592
00:50:46,660 --> 00:50:49,527
It's the first time we've
made significant progress.

593
00:50:51,297 --> 00:50:54,999
All right.
We'll take the risk.

594
00:50:55,001 --> 00:50:56,567
Okay, honey...

595
00:50:56,569 --> 00:50:57,869
<i>What is going on there?</i>

596
00:50:57,871 --> 00:50:59,304
Honey...

597
00:50:59,306 --> 00:51:00,471
<i>Just tell me!</i>

598
00:51:00,473 --> 00:51:02,473
You don't need
to worry, okay?

599
00:51:02,475 --> 00:51:03,808
<i>How can I not worry?</i>

600
00:51:03,810 --> 00:51:06,811
Just calm down.

601
00:51:06,813 --> 00:51:10,715
<i>Becky asked me if the monsters
are going to kill daddy!</i>

602
00:51:10,717 --> 00:51:13,418
Honey,
it's not gonna happen.

603
00:51:15,821 --> 00:51:17,388
<i>Just stay safe.</i>

604
00:51:17,390 --> 00:51:18,723
You don't need to worry.

605
00:51:18,725 --> 00:51:20,792
<i>Please! I'm so scared!</i>

606
00:51:23,762 --> 00:51:25,863
<i>All junior xenolinguistics</i>

607
00:51:25,865 --> 00:51:28,032
<i>and science personnel
must observe</i>

608
00:51:28,034 --> 00:51:30,802
<i>general curfew
unless expressly authorized</i>

609
00:51:30,804 --> 00:51:33,604
<i>for extended work hours

610
00:51:33,606 --> 00:51:37,375
<i>Curfew in effect
as of 2200 hours.</i>

611
00:51:37,743 --> 00:51:41,879
<i>Notice to all late workers,
fire watchers and night staff.</i>

612
00:51:41,881 --> 00:51:46,484
<i>Effective immediately, midnight
rations will be served all night.</i>

613
00:52:34,533 --> 00:52:36,768
<i>Here are some of
the many things</i>

614
00:52:36,770 --> 00:52:38,836
<i>we don't know about heptapods.</i>

615
00:52:38,838 --> 00:52:42,540
<i>Greek. Hepta, "seven."
Pod, "foot."</i>

616
00:52:42,542 --> 00:52:44,876
<i>Seven feet. Heptapod.</i>

617
00:52:46,577 --> 00:52:47,578
<i>Who are they?</i>

618
00:52:49,179 --> 00:52:50,848
<i>Trying to answer this
in any meaningful way</i>

619
00:52:50,850 --> 00:52:52,717
<i>is hampered by the fact that,</i>

620
00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,720
<i>outside being able to see them
and hear them,</i>

621
00:52:55,722 --> 00:52:58,856
<i>the heptapods leave
absolutely no footprint.</i>

622
00:53:00,559 --> 00:53:04,095
<i>The chemical composition of
their spaceship is unknown.</i>

623
00:53:04,097 --> 00:53:07,532
<i>The shell emits no waste,
no gas, no radiation.</i>

624
00:53:07,534 --> 00:53:10,802
<i>Assuming that the shells
communicate with each other,</i>

625
00:53:10,804 --> 00:53:13,538
<i>they do so without detection.</i>

626
00:53:13,540 --> 00:53:16,007
<i>The air between the shells
is untroubled</i>

627
00:53:16,009 --> 00:53:18,042
<i>by Sonic emission
or light wave.</i>

628
00:53:19,645 --> 00:53:22,079
<i>Are they scientists?
Or tourists?</i>

629
00:53:22,081 --> 00:53:23,681
<i>If they're scientists,</i>

630
00:53:23,683 --> 00:53:25,950
<i>they don't seem to ask
a lot of questions.</i>

631
00:53:28,921 --> 00:53:31,489
<i>Why did they park
where they did?</i>

632
00:53:31,491 --> 00:53:34,926
<i>The world's most decorated
experts can't crack that one.</i>

<i>The most plausible theory is</i>

00:53:36,794 --> 00:53:37,996
<i>that they chose
places on earth</i>

635
00:53:38,196 --> 00:53:40,832
<i>with the lowest incidence
of lightning strikes.</i>

636
00:53:40,834 --> 00:53:42,867
<i>But there are exceptions.</i>

637
00:53:42,869 --> 00:53:44,969
<i>The next most
plausible theory is that</i>

638
00:53:44,971 --> 00:53:46,704
<i>sheena Easton had a hit song</i>

639
00:53:46,706 --> 00:53:48,139
<i>at each of these sites
in 1980.</i>

640
00:53:48,141 --> 00:53:49,941
<i>So, we just don't know.</i>

641
00:53:52,611 --> 00:53:54,979
<i>How do they communicate?</i>

642
00:53:54,981 --> 00:53:58,082
<i>Here, Louise is
putting us all to shame.</i>

643
00:53:58,084 --> 00:53:59,884
<i>The first breakthrough was</i>

644
00:53:59,886 --> 00:54:02,653
<i>to discover that
there's no correlation</i>

645
00:54:02,655 --> 00:54:06,524
<i>between what a heptapod says
and what a heptapod writes.</i>

646
00:54:21,173 --> 00:54:23,741
<i>Unlike all written
human languages,</i>

647
00:54:23,743 --> 00:54:26,177
<i>their writing
is semasiographic.</i>

648
00:54:26,179 --> 00:54:29,847
<i>It conveys meaning.
It doesn't represent sound.</i>

649
00:54:34,219 --> 00:54:36,554
<i>Perhaps they view
our form of writing</i>

650
00:54:36,556 --> 00:54:38,923
<i>as a wasted opportunity,</i>

651
00:54:38,925 --> 00:54:41,626
<i>passing up a second
communications channel.</i>

652
00:54:46,698 --> 00:54:49,600
<i>We have our friends
in Pakistan to thank</i>

653
00:54:49,602 --> 00:54:52,670
<i>for their study of
how heptapods write,</i>

654
00:54:52,672 --> 00:54:56,674
<i>because unlike speech,
a logogram is free of time.</i>

655
00:54:59,545 --> 00:55:01,612
<i>Like their ship
or their bodies,</i>

656
00:55:01,614 --> 00:55:03,981
<i>their written language
has no forward</i>

657
00:55:04,081 --> 00:55:05,183
<i>or backward direction.</i>

658
00:55:05,383 --> 00:55:09,687
<i>Linguists call this
non-linear orthography,</i>

659
00:55:09,689 --> 00:55:12,890
<i>which raises the question,
"is this how they think?"</i>

660
00:55:14,593 --> 00:55:17,862
<i>Imagine you wanted to write
a sentence using two hands,</i>

661
00:55:17,962 --> 00:55:19,464
<i>starting from either side.</i>

662
00:55:20,164 --> 00:55:22,767
<i>You would have to know
each word you wanted to use,</i>

663
00:55:22,769 --> 00:55:25,670
<i>as well as how much space
they would occupy.</i>

664
00:55:27,773 --> 00:55:29,874
<i>A heptapod can write
a complex sentence</i>

665
00:55:29,876 --> 00:55:32,076
<i>in two seconds, effortlessly.</i>

666
00:55:32,078 --> 00:55:35,012
<i>It's taken us a month
to make the simplest reply.</i>

667
00:55:35,014 --> 00:55:38,115
<i>Next, expanding vocabulary.</i>

668
00:55:38,117 --> 00:55:39,917
<i>Louise thinks it could
easily take another month</i>

669
00:55:39,919 --> 00:55:41,586
<i>to be ready for that.</i>

670
00:55:58,804 --> 00:56:00,605
Hey...

671
00:56:01,740 --> 00:56:03,174
Oh, hey.

672
00:56:03,176 --> 00:56:05,610
Weber's looking for you.

673
00:56:05,612 --> 00:56:08,245
Yeah, well, why do you think
I'm hiding out here?

674
00:56:09,782 --> 00:56:11,282
Come on up!

675
00:56:13,218 --> 00:56:14,919
Thanks.

676
00:56:17,623 --> 00:56:19,890
Nice out here, huh?

677
00:56:19,892 --> 00:56:22,259
Yeah, it's a nice view.

678
00:56:22,261 --> 00:56:24,629
Away from the noise.

679
00:56:27,766 --> 00:56:29,867
You know, I was just
thinking about you.

680
00:56:32,771 --> 00:56:34,839
You approach language
like a mathematician.

681
00:56:34,841 --> 00:56:38,075
You know that, right?

682
00:56:38,077 --> 00:56:40,344
I will take that
as a compliment.

683
00:56:40,346 --> 00:56:41,979
Yeah, well, it is.

684
00:56:44,083 --> 00:56:48,019
As I watch you steer us around
these communication traps

685
00:56:48,021 --> 00:56:50,154
that I didn't
even know existed,

686
00:56:50,156 --> 00:56:51,989
it's like, "what?"

687
00:56:54,092 --> 00:56:56,093
I guess that's why I'm single.

688
00:56:56,095 --> 00:56:59,230
Trust me, you can
understand communication

689
00:56:59,232 --> 00:57:00,998
and still end up single.

690
00:57:10,142 --> 00:57:13,844
I feel like everything
that happens in there

691
00:57:13,846 --> 00:57:15,780
comes down to the two of us.

692
00:57:17,783 --> 00:57:19,850
Yeah, that's a good thing
though, right?

693
00:57:19,852 --> 00:57:21,285
You and I?

694
00:57:24,756 --> 00:57:28,125
Have you seen the jokers
that we're working with?

695
00:57:28,127 --> 00:57:29,827
Thank god I've got you!

696
00:57:40,971 --> 00:57:41,972

You know, I was doing
some reading, um,

755
01:01:56,095 --> 01:01:57,494
about this idea

756
01:01:57,496 --> 01:02:01,031
that if you immerse yourself
into a foreign language,

757
01:02:01,033 --> 01:02:03,567
then you can actually
rewire your brain.

758
01:02:03,569 --> 01:02:05,636
The sapir-whorf hypothesis.

759
01:02:05,638 --> 01:02:07,638
Mm-hmm.

760
01:02:07,640 --> 01:02:09,373
The theory that, uh...

761
01:02:09,375 --> 01:02:11,442
It... it's the theory
that, uh,

762
01:02:11,444 --> 01:02:13,277
the language
you speak determines

763
01:02:13,279 --> 01:02:14,678
how you think and...

764
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:17,314
Yeah. It affects
how you see everything.

765
01:02:17,316 --> 01:02:18,649
It was, uh...

766
01:02:18,651 --> 01:02:21,118
I'm curious...

767
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:23,387
Are you dreaming
in their language?

768
01:02:33,164 --> 01:02:36,266
I may have had a few dreams,
but I don't...

769
01:02:37,670 --> 01:02:41,405
I don't think that that
makes me unfit to do this job.

770
01:03:00,625 --> 01:03:02,026
Did you sleep?

771
01:03:02,028 --> 01:03:03,227
A little.

772
01:03:04,162 --> 01:03:05,529
Do you know
mandarin?

773
01:03:09,701 --> 01:03:11,301
It is shifting.

774
01:03:18,209 --> 01:03:20,444
The voice
you're about to hear

775
01:03:20,446 --> 01:03:22,780
belongs to
a Chinese military chief...

776
01:03:24,182 --> 01:03:26,316
General shang.

777
01:03:26,318 --> 01:03:27,785
Pull it up!

778
01:03:30,722 --> 01:03:33,457
We got a satellite feed here
of who he's talking to,

779
01:03:33,459 --> 01:03:35,459
if you want to look.

780
01:03:35,461 --> 01:03:37,127
Wait, go back.

781
01:03:38,463 --> 01:03:40,130
Stop.

782
01:03:41,766 --> 01:03:44,068
He's saying that
each of the 12

01:03:44,070 --> 01:03:46,136
is offering
advanced technology.

784
01:03:48,206 --> 01:03:50,541
Go back again.
And play.

785
01:03:52,610 --> 01:03:53,677
Um...

786
01:03:53,679 --> 01:03:58,282
"Our science team is attempting
to decode the sets."

787
01:03:58,550 --> 01:04:01,285
"Sets." I don't know
what that means.

788
01:04:01,287 --> 01:04:03,220
Something about advantage,

789
01:04:03,222 --> 01:04:05,756
suits, honor and,
uh, flowers.

790
01:04:05,758 --> 01:04:07,458
I don't...

791
01:04:08,393 --> 01:04:10,427
I don't know. That's all.

792
01:04:10,429 --> 01:04:13,230
I don't know
what it means either.

793
01:04:13,232 --> 01:04:15,399
An hour ago,
China mobilized forces.

794
01:04:15,401 --> 01:04:18,235
And now, Russia's
following suit.

795
01:04:18,237 --> 01:04:20,370
Shang's about to
start something.

796
01:04:20,372 --> 01:04:22,439
Following suit. Suits.

797
01:04:24,375 --> 01:04:27,177
Suits, honor, flowers...

798
01:04:27,179 --> 01:04:29,847
Colonel, those are
all tile sets in mah-jongg.

799
01:04:31,583 --> 01:04:33,550
God, are they...

800
01:04:33,552 --> 01:04:36,753
Are they using a game to
converse with their heptapods?

801
01:04:38,389 --> 01:04:40,524
Maybe. Why?

802
01:04:40,526 --> 01:04:44,128
Well, let's say that i taught
them chess instead of English.

803
01:04:44,130 --> 01:04:46,196
Every conversation
would be a game.

804
01:04:46,198 --> 01:04:49,333
Every idea expressed through
opposition, victory, defeat.

805
01:04:49,335 --> 01:04:50,667
You see the problem?

806
01:04:50,669 --> 01:04:52,469
Hmm...

807
01:04:52,471 --> 01:04:54,738
If all I ever gave
you was a hammer...

808
01:04:54,740 --> 01:04:56,740
Everything's a nail.

809
01:04:58,309 --> 01:05:00,544
We need to ask
the big question.

810
01:05:01,579 --> 01:05:03,413
Ready or not.

811
01:05:16,394 --> 01:05:18,529
Yeah, I know,
but between there and there.

812
01:05:20,232 --> 01:05:22,466
Well, it's
time to go.

813
01:05:43,855 --> 01:05:45,756
Okay...

814
01:05:49,794 --> 01:05:52,296
Heptapods' purpose.

815
01:06:01,673 --> 01:06:05,442
Heptapod purpose earth.
What is your purpose?

816
01:06:12,383 --> 01:06:14,551
Do we only have costello?

817
01:06:19,490 --> 01:06:21,858
Okay. There you are.

818
01:06:43,381 --> 01:06:44,848
What does it say?

819
01:06:53,424 --> 01:06:55,292
Offer weapon.

820
01:06:59,964 --> 01:07:01,331
You saw what they wrote!

821
01:07:01,333 --> 01:07:02,633
Using a word
they don't fully understand.

822
01:07:02,635 --> 01:07:04,368
Could be a request.
A warning.

823
01:07:04,370 --> 01:07:07,371
Enough! Louise?

824
01:07:07,373 --> 01:07:09,473
We don't know
if they understand

825
01:07:09,475 --> 01:07:12,442
the difference between
a weapon and a tool.

826
01:07:12,444 --> 01:07:14,411
Our language, like
our culture, is messy,

827
01:07:14,413 --> 01:07:15,912
and sometimes,
one can be both.

828
01:07:15,914 --> 01:07:17,481
And it's quite possible

829
01:07:17,483 --> 01:07:19,750
that they're asking us
to offer them something,

830
01:07:19,752 --> 01:07:21,351
not the other way around.

831
01:07:21,353 --> 01:07:23,520
It's like the first
part of a trade.

832
01:07:23,522 --> 01:07:25,489
So, how do we clarify
their intentions

833
01:07:25,491 --> 01:07:26,823
beyond those two words?

834
01:07:26,923 --> 01:07:27,925
Well, I go back in.

835
01:07:28,125 --> 01:07:29,860
Right away, we go back in
and we clear this up.

836
01:07:29,862 --> 01:07:31,662
It's more complicated
than that.

837
01:07:31,664 --> 01:07:34,464
How is it more complicated
than that?

838
01:07:34,466 --> 01:07:36,633
Colonel,
the secretary of defense

839
01:07:36,635 --> 01:07:38,368
is on the line for you.

840
01:07:44,909 --> 01:07:46,877
We need to sit
on this information

841
01:07:46,879 --> 01:07:48,478
till we know what it means,

842
01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:50,447
so we aren't sharing it
with our enemies.

843
01:07:50,547 --> 01:07:51,449
We must consider the idea

844
01:07:51,649 --> 01:07:53,884
that our visitors are prodding
us to fight among ourselves

845
01:07:53,886 --> 01:07:56,553
until only one
faction prevails.

846
01:07:56,555 --> 01:07:58,555
There's no evidence of that.
Sure there is.

847
01:07:58,557 --> 01:08:00,924
Just grab a history book.

848
01:08:00,926 --> 01:08:04,695
The British with India,
the Germans with Rwanda.

849
01:08:04,697 --> 01:08:07,331
They even got
a name for it in Hungary.

850
01:08:11,836 --> 01:08:16,707
Yeah. We're a world
with no single leader.

851
01:08:16,709 --> 01:08:18,475
It's impossible to
deal with just one of us.

852
01:08:18,477 --> 01:08:20,844
And with the word
"weapon" now...

853
01:08:20,846 --> 01:08:24,648
Halpern. Yes, sir!

854
01:08:24,848 --> 01:08:31,848
PEPPER & LALASPAIN

855
01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:45,869
No confirmation yet.
Standing by.

856
01:08:45,871 --> 01:08:49,873
Anything?
What did they say?

857
01:08:51,075 --> 01:08:52,542
China and Russia
are off the grid.

858
01:08:52,642 --> 01:08:53,744
They aren't speaking
to anyone.

859
01:08:53,844 --> 01:08:57,614
Whatever they learned in their
last session has them spooked.

860
01:08:59,550 --> 01:09:00,717
Yes, sir!

861
01:09:00,719 --> 01:09:02,619
We have orders
to do the same.

862
01:09:02,621 --> 01:09:03,820
These are our allies!

863
01:09:03,822 --> 01:09:05,021
You can't shut us down!

864
01:09:05,023 --> 01:09:06,823
Put us on radio silence.
Do it.

865
01:09:06,825 --> 01:09:10,560
We received a message
from the hept... damn it!

866
01:09:11,095 --> 01:09:12,996
We need to be
talking to each other!

867
01:09:12,998 --> 01:09:15,866
You want to talk to them?
Find out what this means.

868
01:09:20,905 --> 01:09:23,006
<i>Base-camp talk
is now offline.</i>

869
01:09:23,008 --> 01:09:25,542
<i>All interpreters and
international liaisons,</i>

870
01:09:25,544 --> 01:09:29,446
<i>stand down and
report to unit coordinators.</i>

871
01:09:30,915 --> 01:09:33,683
We've never
re-entered a session before.

872
01:09:33,685 --> 01:09:36,453
Louise, trust me, okay?
We've got time.

873
01:09:36,455 --> 01:09:38,655
We've just gotta
step on it, all right?

874
01:09:38,657 --> 01:09:40,690
<i>"Use weapon."</i>

875
01:09:40,790 --> 01:09:42,192
<i>This is the alien message</i>

876
01:09:42,292 --> 01:09:44,494
<i>said to have provoked
the Chinese government</i>

877
01:09:44,496 --> 01:09:46,129
<i>to withdraw
their scientists from</i>

878
01:09:46,131 --> 01:09:47,864
<i>the international
mission today.</i>

879
01:09:47,866 --> 01:09:50,100
<i>In a statement,
general shang said,</i>

880
01:09:50,102 --> 01:09:52,469
<i>"China no longer trusts
the aliens</i>

881
01:09:52,471 --> 01:09:53,837
<i>"who want to divide us.</i>

882
01:09:53,839 --> 01:09:56,640
<i>"Humanity must be protected."</i>

883
01:09:56,642 --> 01:09:59,443
<i>China has asked for immediate
talks at the un.</i>

884
01:10:02,113 --> 01:10:04,114
<i>Alpha-one-niner,</i>

885
01:10:04,116 --> 01:10:05,782
<i>this is condor, over.</i>

886
01:10:09,620 --> 01:10:13,857
<i>Alpha-one-niner,
this is condor, come in. Over.</i>

887
01:10:18,463 --> 01:10:21,498
<i>Captain marks, condor
not receiving transmission.</i>

888
01:10:21,699 --> 01:10:23,700
<i>Squelch twice
if you hear line.</i>

889
01:10:24,635 --> 01:10:26,536
<i>Captain marks,
all escort units</i>

890
01:10:26,538 --> 01:10:28,238
<i>are ordered to
cease all activity.</i>

891
01:10:58,870 --> 01:11:01,204
No, no, no. Dr. banks,
you can't go in there.

892
01:11:01,206 --> 01:11:03,173
I just need to
ask one question.

893
01:11:03,175 --> 01:11:05,609
Dr. banks!
The session is finished.

894
01:11:05,611 --> 01:11:07,744
You can't... you can't go
back in. It's dangerous.

895
01:11:07,746 --> 01:11:09,646
Look, we just need
five minutes. Don't sweat it.

896
01:11:09,648 --> 01:11:11,548
Marks, let them go.

897
01:11:14,085 --> 01:11:16,086
Hey, abbott!

898
01:11:21,025 --> 01:11:24,160
So, what are we calling
this? Session 37?

899
01:11:24,162 --> 01:11:26,830
Uh, no, 36, part 2.

900
01:11:34,038 --> 01:11:35,739
Why are
they on their own?

901
01:11:35,741 --> 01:11:38,074
We've been attempting
to hail captain marks.

902
01:11:38,076 --> 01:11:39,943
The escort units
are not responding, sir.

903
01:11:39,945 --> 01:11:43,113
Why not? Send security.

904
01:11:46,617 --> 01:11:50,153
"Offer weapon,
question mark."

905
01:11:55,159 --> 01:11:57,761
Are you offering us
something?

906
01:12:06,203 --> 01:12:09,239
Technology,
apparatus, method?

907
01:12:09,241 --> 01:12:11,641
Yeah, see,
this is a different word.

908
01:12:11,643 --> 01:12:14,311
This... this segment,
it's a lot busier.

909
01:12:19,684 --> 01:12:23,219
Give technology

910
01:12:24,589 --> 01:12:26,222
now.

911
01:12:34,766 --> 01:12:36,800
What's he doing?

912
01:12:41,772 --> 01:12:43,740
<i>Captain, on your ten.</i>

913
01:12:52,717 --> 01:12:54,851
<i>Security detail inbound, sir.</i>

914
01:12:54,853 --> 01:12:57,621
<i>T-minus 4 minutes remaining.
We need to see this through.</i>

915
01:12:57,623 --> 01:12:59,723
<i>Okay, this is it.
Lock and load.</i>

916
01:12:59,725 --> 01:13:01,992
<i>We just need to
hold them off until it's done.</i>

917
01:13:01,994 --> 01:13:04,661
<i>Copy that. Warning shots
and suppressive fire only.</i>

918
01:13:04,761 --> 01:13:06,063
<i>Load up
and get to cover.</i>

919
01:13:06,163 --> 01:13:08,131
<i>Stay frosty and
we can avoid casualties.</i>

920
01:13:34,725 --> 01:13:37,193
Abbott wants me to
write on the barrier.

921
01:13:42,099 --> 01:13:44,034
Can you
even do that?

922
01:13:45,169 --> 01:13:47,037
I don't know.

923
01:14:02,887 --> 01:14:04,821
I can't do it
with both hands.

924
01:15:16,093 --> 01:15:17,961
Louise...

925
01:15:33,111 --> 01:15:34,410
What is that?

926
01:16:19,924 --> 01:16:22,492
Hey!
Hey, hey, hey. Take it easy.

927
01:16:22,494 --> 01:16:25,361
You suffered a concussion.
Just lay back.

928
01:16:28,299 --> 01:16:30,433
How do you feel?

929
01:16:38,442 --> 01:16:40,109
How is Ian?

930
01:16:40,111 --> 01:16:42,312
Same as you. He's okay.

931
01:16:43,547 --> 01:16:46,382
Who, um...
Who did this?

932
01:16:46,384 --> 01:16:48,251
Ah, some soldiers.

933
01:16:48,253 --> 01:16:50,520
They've been watching
too much TV.

934
01:16:53,457 --> 01:16:55,191
What is that?

935
01:16:55,193 --> 01:16:56,993
Take it easy.
Take it easy.

936
01:16:56,995 --> 01:17:01,364
The site's no longer secure.
We're standing by to evacuate.

937
01:17:01,366 --> 01:17:03,366
Where's Ian?

938
01:17:03,368 --> 01:17:06,336
Weber came and got him
maybe 10 minutes ago.

939
01:17:06,338 --> 01:17:09,205
He wouldn't leave until
he knew you were okay.

940
01:17:12,343 --> 01:17:14,010
Your whole tent
is on the clock

941
01:17:14,012 --> 01:17:16,913
to figure out whatever it is
you were given up there.

942
01:17:22,486 --> 01:17:24,087
This is all of it?

943
01:17:24,089 --> 01:17:26,589
The feed wasn't interrupted
by the explosion?

944
01:17:28,092 --> 01:17:30,126
Not as far as I can see.

945
01:17:31,428 --> 01:17:33,062
You see something?

946
01:17:33,064 --> 01:17:34,530
Oh, I don't know yet.

947
01:17:34,532 --> 01:17:37,467
I'm gonna need my team to get
together with Louise's team.

948
01:17:37,469 --> 01:17:39,168
I need everybody
working on this.

949
01:17:39,170 --> 01:17:40,603
We cannot leave.

950
01:17:40,703 --> 01:17:42,005
Glad to see
you're awake.

951
01:17:42,105 --> 01:17:45,074
We need to go back in and
explain this wasn't our fault.

952
01:17:45,076 --> 01:17:47,110
We can't go back inside.
We have to.

953
01:17:47,112 --> 01:17:49,445
What happened in there
was an attack.

954
01:17:49,545 --> 01:17:50,947
We can hope for the best,

955
01:17:51,047 --> 01:17:52,115
but I have orders to
prepare for retaliation.

956
01:17:52,117 --> 01:17:53,549
We may have to evacuate.

957
01:17:53,649 --> 01:17:54,851
No, that's the wrong move.

958
01:17:55,051 --> 01:17:57,053
As long as they stay,
we have to stay.

959
01:18:31,188 --> 01:18:33,222
Well, they're not leaving.

960
01:18:35,225 --> 01:18:37,126
Why does this feel worse?

961
01:18:41,532 --> 01:18:43,633
<i>China is
on the offensive.</i>

962
01:18:43,635 --> 01:18:45,468
<i>They're positioning
the military</i>

963
01:18:45,470 --> 01:18:47,236
<i>to blow the alien vessel
right out of the sky.</i>

964
01:18:47,238 --> 01:18:49,105
<i>And if this happens,</i>

965
01:18:49,107 --> 01:18:50,473
<i>we can't sit around
waiting for retaliation.</i>

966
01:18:50,475 --> 01:18:52,175
<i>So, get prepared.</i>

967
01:18:53,143 --> 01:18:55,411
<i>The air force and infantry
are standing by.</i>

968
01:18:55,413 --> 01:18:56,479
Yes, sir.

969
01:18:58,082 --> 01:19:01,651
<i>Tonight, China becomes
the first world power</i>

970
01:19:01,653 --> 01:19:04,487
<i>to declare war
against the aliens.</i>

971
01:19:04,489 --> 01:19:07,190
<i>Following the failure of
diplomatic efforts</i>

972
01:19:07,192 --> 01:19:08,658
<i>at the united nations,</i>

973
01:19:08,660 --> 01:19:12,128
<i>China has confirmed that its
language experts have tonight</i>

974
01:19:12,130 --> 01:19:14,530
<i>delivered an ultimatum
at the Shanghai site.</i>

975
01:19:14,630 --> 01:19:15,832
<i>In a televised statement,</i>

976
01:19:16,032 --> 01:19:19,202
<i>general shang, chairman of
the people's liberation army,</i>

977
01:19:19,204 --> 01:19:23,039
<i>said the aliens have 24 hours
to leave Chinese territory</i>

978
01:19:23,041 --> 01:19:24,374
<i>or face destruction.</i>

979
01:19:24,376 --> 01:19:26,576
<i>And he urged
all other world leaders</i>

980
01:19:26,578 --> 01:19:29,679
<i>to unite with China
and take a similar stance.</i>

981
01:19:30,514 --> 01:19:34,317
<i>With a huge buildup of forces
at their landing sites,</i>

982
01:19:34,319 --> 01:19:37,153
<i>Pakistan, Russia and Sudan
are thought to be</i>

983
01:19:37,155 --> 01:19:38,721
<i>following China's lead.</i>

984
01:19:54,405 --> 01:19:56,472
It can't be random.

985
01:20:11,422 --> 01:20:14,157
It's going
to take us years.

986
01:20:19,096 --> 01:20:21,130
<i>What's this term here?</i>

987
01:20:24,201 --> 01:20:26,135
<i>Mom...</i>

988
01:20:28,605 --> 01:20:30,306
Mom...

989
01:20:30,308 --> 01:20:31,741
Hmm? Sweetie...

990
01:20:31,743 --> 01:20:34,177
Uh, what's this term
for that thing,

991
01:20:34,179 --> 01:20:36,145
like a...
Like a technical term,

992
01:20:36,147 --> 01:20:37,613
where we make a deal,

993
01:20:37,615 --> 01:20:39,682
and we both
get something out of it.

994
01:20:39,684 --> 01:20:41,551
A compromise.

995
01:20:41,553 --> 01:20:43,086
No...

996
01:20:43,088 --> 01:20:45,354
Like, it's a competition.

997
01:20:45,356 --> 01:20:47,090
Mm-hmm...

998
01:20:47,092 --> 01:20:48,591
But both sides end up happy.

999
01:20:49,793 --> 01:20:51,360
Like a win-win.

1000
01:20:51,362 --> 01:20:53,529
More science-y than that.

1001
01:20:53,531 --> 01:20:56,632
If you want science,
call your father.

1002
01:21:11,249 --> 01:21:12,381
Thank you.

1003
01:21:23,127 --> 01:21:24,794
Sorry.

1004
01:21:24,796 --> 01:21:26,262
It's okay.

1005
01:21:26,264 --> 01:21:28,231
I'm up.

1006
01:21:32,136 --> 01:21:33,603
What time is it?

1007
01:21:35,172 --> 01:21:37,206
It's time you opened that
bottle you've been hiding.

1008
01:21:41,678 --> 01:21:44,347
You cracked something,
didn't you?

1009
01:21:44,349 --> 01:21:45,615
Yeah. Come here.

1010
01:21:47,484 --> 01:21:49,185
Take a look
at this section.

1011
01:21:49,187 --> 01:21:51,821
It seems to be
talking about time.

1012
01:21:51,823 --> 01:21:54,557
Their symbol for time
is everywhere.

1013
01:21:54,559 --> 01:21:56,225
So what is this?

1014
01:21:57,494 --> 01:22:00,696
A formula for
faster-than-light travel?

1015
01:22:00,698 --> 01:22:02,832
Who can tell?

1016
01:22:02,834 --> 01:22:04,567
There are too many gaps.

1017
01:22:04,569 --> 01:22:06,235
Nothing's complete.

1018
01:22:06,237 --> 01:22:07,703
Then it dawned on me.

1019
01:22:07,705 --> 01:22:09,372
Come here.

1020
01:22:10,340 --> 01:22:12,208
Right here.

1021
01:22:12,210 --> 01:22:16,179
Stop focusing on the ones.
Look at the zeroes.

1022
01:22:16,181 --> 01:22:18,181
How much of
this is data?

1023
01:22:18,183 --> 01:22:20,716
How much of it
is negative space?

1024
01:22:20,718 --> 01:22:22,685
So, I measured it.

1025
01:22:24,321 --> 01:22:26,789
0.0833 recurring.

1026
01:22:32,529 --> 01:22:35,264
Perhaps you'd
like that as a fraction.

1027
01:22:38,202 --> 01:22:39,969
One of twelve.

1028
01:22:42,739 --> 01:22:46,375
What they're saying right here
is that this is one of 12.

1029
01:22:46,377 --> 01:22:48,344
"We are part
of a larger whole."

1030
01:22:48,346 --> 01:22:50,513
Or we're one of 12
contestants for the prize.

1031
01:22:50,515 --> 01:22:51,914
Why do I have
to talk to him?

1032
01:22:51,916 --> 01:22:53,482
We're all working together.

1033
01:22:53,484 --> 01:22:55,785
We need to talk to
the other sites,

1034
01:22:55,787 --> 01:22:58,487
help them with what they've
gotten from the heptapods.

1035
01:22:58,489 --> 01:22:59,689
We're blacked out.

1036
01:22:59,691 --> 01:23:01,924
China just threatened
to destroy their shell.

1037
01:23:02,024 --> 01:23:03,126
We're on our own.

1038
01:23:03,226 --> 01:23:04,894
But this says that all of
the pieces fit together.

1039
01:23:04,896 --> 01:23:06,862
And I'm telling you
that no one else cares.

1040
01:23:07,396 --> 01:23:08,397
Two hours ago,

1041
01:23:08,398 --> 01:23:10,700
we pulled this audio off
a secure channel in Russia.

1042
01:23:10,702 --> 01:23:13,502
Someone on the science team
there was broadcasting wide.

1043
01:23:15,940 --> 01:23:18,641
<i>In their final session,
the aliens said,</i>

1044
01:23:18,643 --> 01:23:21,711
<i>"there is no time.
Many become one."</i>

1045
01:23:21,713 --> 01:23:24,413
<i>I fear we have
all been given weapons.</i>

1046
01:23:24,415 --> 01:23:28,251
<i>If anyone is receiving this,
please...</i>

1047
01:23:34,291 --> 01:23:35,658
Well, I mean,

1048
01:23:36,793 --> 01:23:38,294
there are a lot of ways

1049
01:23:38,296 --> 01:23:39,662
you can interpret
what he said.

1050
01:23:39,664 --> 01:23:41,797
I don't need an interpreter
to know what this means.

1051
01:23:41,799 --> 01:23:43,933
Russia just executed
one of their own experts

1052
01:23:44,033 --> 01:23:45,135
to keep their secret.

1053
01:23:45,235 --> 01:23:47,803
"Many become one" could
just be their way of saying

1054
01:23:47,805 --> 01:23:49,672
"some assembly required."

1055
01:23:49,674 --> 01:23:51,540
Why hand it out to us
in pieces?

1056
01:23:51,542 --> 01:23:53,342
Why not just
give it all over?

1057
01:23:53,344 --> 01:23:55,611
What better way to force us
to work together for once?

1058
01:23:56,679 --> 01:23:57,980
Even if I did believe you,

1059
01:23:57,981 --> 01:24:00,750
how in the world are you gonna
get anybody else to play along

1060
01:24:00,752 --> 01:24:02,752
and give up their data?

1061
01:24:02,754 --> 01:24:05,288
We offer ours
in return.

1062
01:24:05,290 --> 01:24:06,689
Yeah?

1063
01:24:06,691 --> 01:24:08,357
A trade?

1064
01:24:08,359 --> 01:24:09,759
It's a non-zero-sum
game.

1065
01:24:12,462 --> 01:24:15,031
Non-zero-sum game.

1066
01:24:15,732 --> 01:24:18,000
That's it. Yeah.

1067
01:24:18,002 --> 01:24:19,935
Thanks.

1068
01:24:25,442 --> 01:24:28,311
Nine of
the landing sites have gone

1069
01:24:28,511 --> 01:24:29,513
total comms blackout.

1070
01:24:30,013 --> 01:24:31,614
Only way to reach them is
to physically drive there

1071
01:24:31,616 --> 01:24:33,983
and yell at the border guards,
which we're doing,

1072
01:24:33,985 --> 01:24:35,484
but it won't be
fast enough.

1073
01:24:35,486 --> 01:24:37,853
There must be a way to
get the message to them.

1074
01:24:37,855 --> 01:24:40,856
To our allies, maybe,
but it's too little too late.

1075
01:24:40,858 --> 01:24:43,592
<i>What we need is to get
all the other nations online</i>

1076
01:24:43,594 --> 01:24:45,594
<i>before one starts global war.</i>

1077
01:24:45,596 --> 01:24:47,596
<i>And there's no way
for us to reach them.</i>

1078
01:24:47,598 --> 01:24:50,666
Okay, hold on a second.
There is!

1079
01:24:50,668 --> 01:24:52,335
It's right above us.

1080
01:24:53,904 --> 01:24:55,671
That's problematic
for us right now.

1081
01:24:55,673 --> 01:24:58,808
The Pentagon's convinced
our shell will retaliate.

1082
01:24:58,810 --> 01:25:02,011
My guess is they'll order us
to evacuate within the hour.

1083
01:25:02,013 --> 01:25:03,879
Look,
they're not our enemy.

1084
01:25:03,881 --> 01:25:06,015
They've made no act of
aggression towards us.

1085
01:25:06,017 --> 01:25:08,351
Maybe this is
their way of being aggressive.

1086
01:25:08,353 --> 01:25:09,785
That's not
the question.

1087
01:25:09,787 --> 01:25:11,520
What is the question?

1088
01:25:11,522 --> 01:25:13,789
How do we get you
back in that room

1089
01:25:13,791 --> 01:25:15,558
when it's half a mile
straight up?

1090
01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:17,426
I think
our work here is done.

1091
01:25:18,528 --> 01:25:21,430
It's in the hands
of our superiors now.

1092
01:25:40,817 --> 01:25:43,018
What the hell
is she doing?

1093
01:26:35,872 --> 01:26:38,874
Oh, my god! Oh, god, no!

1094
01:28:59,683 --> 01:29:01,317
Costello...

1095
01:29:03,853 --> 01:29:05,821
Where's abbott?

1096
01:29:35,151 --> 01:29:36,952
I'm sorry.

1097
01:29:39,022 --> 01:29:41,123
We're sorry.

1098
01:29:44,761 --> 01:29:47,129
I need you to...

1099
01:29:47,131 --> 01:29:51,400
I need you to send a message
to the other sites.

1100
01:30:10,820 --> 01:30:12,054
I don't...

1101
01:30:12,056 --> 01:30:14,156
I don't understand.

1102
01:30:14,158 --> 01:30:18,260
What is your purpose here?

1103
01:30:44,688 --> 01:30:47,189
How can you
know the future?

1104
01:31:02,972 --> 01:31:05,274
I don't...

1105
01:31:06,876 --> 01:31:10,913
I don't understand.
Who is this child?

1106
01:31:15,952 --> 01:31:17,786
<i>The show is called</i>

1107
01:31:17,788 --> 01:31:20,222
<i>"mommy and daddy
talk to animals."</i>

1108
01:31:53,757 --> 01:31:57,126
Wait! No! Wait!

1109
01:32:46,109 --> 01:32:47,876
- Dr. banks!
- Louise!

1110
01:32:47,878 --> 01:32:49,478
Are you all right?

1111
01:32:52,448 --> 01:32:54,483
You all right?
Yeah. I'm all right.

1112
01:32:54,485 --> 01:32:56,084
What happened?

1113
01:32:56,086 --> 01:32:58,387
I'm trying to figure it out.
This is too big.

1114
01:32:58,389 --> 01:33:01,056
Doesn't matter now.
We have orders to evacuate.

1115
01:33:01,058 --> 01:33:02,257
Why?

1116
01:33:02,259 --> 01:33:04,393
Russia and Sudan
are following China.

1117
01:33:07,230 --> 01:33:08,463
I don't understand.

1118
01:33:08,465 --> 01:33:09,865
<i>Help me, mama.</i>

1119
01:33:10,834 --> 01:33:13,368
Louise?
Whoa!

1120
01:33:13,370 --> 01:33:14,469
Mom!

1121
01:33:17,273 --> 01:33:18,941
Mama!

1122
01:33:21,211 --> 01:33:23,278
Sorry, honey.

1123
01:33:26,149 --> 01:33:28,417
What day is it?
Do you know, baby?

1124
01:33:28,419 --> 01:33:30,252
Sunday.

1125
01:33:35,491 --> 01:33:38,894
Are you gonna leave me
like daddy did?

1126
01:33:38,896 --> 01:33:42,431
Oh, Hannah, honey,
your daddy didn't leave you.

1127
01:33:42,433 --> 01:33:44,533
You're gonna
see him this weekend.

1128
01:33:45,969 --> 01:33:49,104
He doesn't look at me
the same way anymore.

1129
01:33:57,013 --> 01:33:59,047
It's my fault.

1130
01:34:00,950 --> 01:34:04,186
I told him something that
he wasn't ready to hear.

1131
01:34:05,989 --> 01:34:07,589
What?

1132
01:34:09,459 --> 01:34:11,393
Well...

1133
01:34:11,395 --> 01:34:13,896
Believe it or not,

1134
01:34:13,898 --> 01:34:16,498
I know something
that's going to happen.

1135
01:34:18,534 --> 01:34:21,303
I can't explain how I know.
I just do.

1136
01:34:22,939 --> 01:34:26,208
And when I told your daddy,
he got really mad.

1137
01:34:27,911 --> 01:34:30,445
And he said I made
the wrong choice.

1138
01:34:32,982 --> 01:34:36,151
What?
What's going to happen?

1139
01:34:38,588 --> 01:34:43,025
It has to do with
a really rare disease.

1140
01:34:45,628 --> 01:34:48,130
And it's unstoppable.

1141
01:34:49,499 --> 01:34:52,234
Kind of like you are,

1142
01:34:52,236 --> 01:34:56,004
with your swimming
and your poetry

1143
01:34:56,006 --> 01:34:57,572
and all the other
amazing things

1144
01:34:57,574 --> 01:34:59,441
that you share
with the world.

1145
01:34:59,443 --> 01:35:01,143
I'm unstoppable?

1146
01:35:02,078 --> 01:35:03,712
Yeah.

1147
01:35:20,097 --> 01:35:21,663
I got you.

1148
01:35:23,400 --> 01:35:26,501
Louise? Louise?

1149
01:35:28,404 --> 01:35:31,206
I just realized why
my husband left me.

1150
01:35:31,208 --> 01:35:33,108
My husband left me.

1151
01:35:33,110 --> 01:35:34,376
You were married?

1152
01:35:34,378 --> 01:35:37,312
Come on!
Let's get out of here.

1153
01:36:11,314 --> 01:36:12,714
Mama?

1154
01:36:12,716 --> 01:36:14,316
Yeah?

1155
01:36:14,318 --> 01:36:17,019
Why's my name
Hannah?

1156
01:36:18,722 --> 01:36:21,690
Get those people
back, please.

1157
01:36:21,692 --> 01:36:24,559
Well, your name
is very special,

1158
01:36:24,561 --> 01:36:27,162
because it is
a palindrome.

1159
01:36:27,164 --> 01:36:30,699
It reads the same forward
and backward.

1160
01:36:30,701 --> 01:36:33,301
All right, guys,
give me a hand here.

1161
01:36:33,303 --> 01:36:35,303
Yes, sir.
That goes in the bag.

1162
01:36:39,575 --> 01:36:41,309
Ready to go!

1163
01:37:00,730 --> 01:37:03,799
<i>Evacuation underway.</i>

1164
01:37:07,170 --> 01:37:08,336
<i>Hey...</i>

1165
01:37:08,338 --> 01:37:12,407
We're done here!
We're taking this with us.

1166
01:37:37,200 --> 01:37:38,366
I can read it.

1167
01:37:42,705 --> 01:37:44,706
I know what it is.
What?

1168
01:37:44,708 --> 01:37:47,375
It's not a weapon.
It's a gift.

1169
01:37:47,377 --> 01:37:49,377
The weapon is
their language.

1170
01:37:49,379 --> 01:37:51,646
They gave it to us.
Do you know what that means?

1171
01:37:51,648 --> 01:37:54,783
So we can learn heptapod.
If we survive.

1172
01:37:54,785 --> 01:37:57,586
If you learn it,
when you really learn it,

1173
01:37:57,588 --> 01:38:00,122
you begin to perceive time
the way that they do,

1174
01:38:00,124 --> 01:38:03,258
so you can see
what's to come.

1175
01:38:03,260 --> 01:38:05,327
But time, it isn't
the same for them.

1176
01:38:05,329 --> 01:38:07,596
It's non-linear.

1177
01:38:07,598 --> 01:38:10,332
Look, we did our best,
but it wasn't enough.

1178
01:38:11,467 --> 01:38:13,268
The captain
will load you up.

1179
01:38:13,270 --> 01:38:14,636
You're lifting off
in 5 minutes.

1180
01:38:14,638 --> 01:38:18,807
Ian, Louise, it was
an honor to work with you.

1181
01:38:18,809 --> 01:38:20,876
Good luck.

1182
01:38:24,514 --> 01:38:26,414
Hey, colonel...

1183
01:38:32,755 --> 01:38:35,357
I'm gonna find out
where we're going.

1184
01:38:42,698 --> 01:38:44,833
Wake up, mommy!

1185
01:39:20,436 --> 01:39:22,270
Dr. banks...

1186
01:39:23,339 --> 01:39:25,373
A pleasure.

1187
01:39:25,375 --> 01:39:28,743
General shang,
the pleasure is mine, really.

1188
01:39:28,745 --> 01:39:30,879
Your president said

1189
01:39:30,881 --> 01:39:34,316
he was honored to host me
at the celebration...

1190
01:39:34,318 --> 01:39:35,917
Yeah.

1191
01:39:35,919 --> 01:39:39,221
...but I confess,
the only reason why I'm here

1192
01:39:39,223 --> 01:39:42,791
is to meet you in person.

1193
01:39:44,227 --> 01:39:47,329
Me? Well, I'm flattered.
Thank you.

1194
01:39:47,697 --> 01:39:50,265
18 months ago,

1195
01:39:50,267 --> 01:39:52,801
you did something remarkable,

1196
01:39:52,803 --> 01:39:56,871
something not even
my superior has done.

1197
01:39:58,307 --> 01:39:59,908
And what's that?

1198
01:39:59,910 --> 01:40:01,710
You changed my mind.

1199
01:40:03,779 --> 01:40:07,983
You're the reason
for this unification,

1200
01:40:08,517 --> 01:40:12,520
all because you reached out
to me at my private number.

1201
01:40:14,457 --> 01:40:16,725
Your private number?

1202
01:40:16,727 --> 01:40:19,294
General, I... I don't know
your private number.

1203
01:40:25,401 --> 01:40:27,035
Now you know.

1204
01:40:28,571 --> 01:40:31,840
I do not claim to know
how your mind works,

1205
01:40:31,842 --> 01:40:36,678
but I believe it was important
for you to see that.

1206
01:40:38,447 --> 01:40:40,315
I called you, didn't I?

1207
01:40:41,384 --> 01:40:43,718
Yes, you did.

1208
01:40:54,497 --> 01:40:56,064
Louise!

1209
01:41:12,381 --> 01:41:15,450
All right,
let's shut down the system.

1210
01:41:15,452 --> 01:41:18,853
Sir? There's a sat line
here dialing China.

1211
01:41:20,690 --> 01:41:22,724
Here? What do
you mean "here"?

1212
01:41:24,827 --> 01:41:27,495
Come on, come on!

1213
01:41:27,497 --> 01:41:29,364
Whose phone is it?

1214
01:41:33,469 --> 01:41:34,836
It's your phone, sir.

1215
01:41:42,011 --> 01:41:43,678
Search base camp now.

1216
01:41:43,680 --> 01:41:45,947
Find out
who's using that phone.

1217
01:41:45,949 --> 01:41:47,782
And hold on to
those coordinates.

1218
01:41:47,784 --> 01:41:48,950
Yes, sir.

1219
01:41:48,952 --> 01:41:51,419
Come on... what do I say?

1220
01:41:52,355 --> 01:41:53,922
What do I say?

1221
01:42:04,734 --> 01:42:06,434
Come on.

1222
01:42:06,902 --> 01:42:09,971
I will never forget
what you said.

1223
01:42:20,649 --> 01:42:24,486
You told me
my wife's dying words.

1224
01:42:41,036 --> 01:42:42,904
We found the source
of the phone call.

1225
01:42:42,906 --> 01:42:44,839
It's in the clean room.
We're waiting for instructions.

1226
01:42:48,078 --> 01:42:49,978
What are you doing?

1227
01:42:49,980 --> 01:42:52,113
What are you doing?
Changing someone's mind.

1228
01:42:52,115 --> 01:42:54,115
Can you buy me 20 seconds?
We don't have time for this.

1229
01:42:54,117 --> 01:42:55,717
No, trust me.
Buy me 20 seconds.

1230
01:42:55,719 --> 01:42:57,819
Do you trust me?
Okay. Yeah.

1231
01:43:00,956 --> 01:43:04,726
Dr. banks, drop the phone
now or we shoot!

1232
01:43:07,930 --> 01:43:09,130
Drop it!

1233
01:43:09,132 --> 01:43:10,498
I'm sorry!

1234
01:43:11,968 --> 01:43:14,903
You are committing
an act of treason!

1235
01:43:19,909 --> 01:43:22,010
Yes.
Drop it!

1236
01:43:22,012 --> 01:43:23,778
It's done. I'm done.

1237

01:47:15,811 --> 01:47:18,813
Now backward. H...

1267
01:47:18,815 --> 01:47:21,149
...a-n-n-a-h!

1268
01:47:21,151 --> 01:47:22,717
Hannah!

1269
01:47:22,719 --> 01:47:24,819
You ready, baby?

1270
01:47:27,356 --> 01:47:29,023
Hi!

1271
01:47:31,394 --> 01:47:33,761
Don't worry. See you.

1272
01:47:35,130 --> 01:47:36,798
Daddy!

1273
01:47:45,908 --> 01:47:47,375
You okay?

1274
01:47:51,914 --> 01:47:53,781
Are you ready?

1275
01:47:57,120 --> 01:47:58,953
Oh, guess what? Star stuff!

1276
01:48:01,390 --> 01:48:02,824
Ian?

1277
01:48:02,924 --> 01:48:03,826
Yeah?

1278
01:48:04,326 --> 01:48:07,795
If you could see your whole
life from start to finish,

1279
01:48:09,865 --> 01:48:11,966
would you change things?

1280
01:48:18,006 --> 01:48:22,076
Maybe I'd say
what I feel more often.

1281
01:48:22,078 --> 01:48:23,811
I... I don't know.

1282
01:48:39,228 --> 01:48:41,929
You know, I've had my head
tilted up to the stars

1283
01:48:41,931 --> 01:48:43,498
for as long as
i can remember.

1284
01:48:46,034 --> 01:48:48,503
You know what
surprised me the most?

1285
01:48:50,305 --> 01:48:52,440
It wasn't meeting them.

1286
01:48:57,179 --> 01:48:59,447
It was meeting you.

1287
01:49:39,354 --> 01:49:43,291
I forgot how good it felt
to be held by you.

1288
01:49:52,267 --> 01:49:54,335
You wanna make a baby?

1289
01:50:28,503 --> 01:50:31,272
Yes. Yeah.

1290
01:50:33,472 --> 01:50:45,472
