"On The Nature Of Daylight" by Max Richter (1966 )

3
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,100
I used to think this was the beginning of your story.

4
00:01:43,510 --> 00:01:45,150
Memory is a strange thing.

5
00:01:47,250 --> 00:01:49,190
It doesn't work like I thought it did.

6
00:01:50,510 --> 00:01:52,310
We are so bound by time,

7
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,180
by its order.

8
00:02:16,090 --> 00:02:17,090
Okay.

9
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:27,980
Okay. Come back to me. Come back to me.

10
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:30,780
Come back to me.

11
00:02:31,250 --> 00:02:32,030
Stick 'em up!

12
00:02:34,090 --> 00:02:36,990
Are you the sheriff in this here town?

13
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,670
These are my tickle guns, and I'm gonna get ya.

14
00:02:41,090 --> 00:02:41,890
No.

15
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,800
You want me to chase you? You better run.

16
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:49,890
Ah... Oh...

17
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,330
I remember moments in the middle.

18
00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:12,260
I love you.

19
00:03:13,580 --> 00:03:14,860
I hate you!

20
00:03:27,290 --> 00:03:28,730
And this was the end.

21
00:03:30,790 --> 00:03:31,390
Sh...

22
00:03:37,420 --> 00:03:38,720
Come back to me.

23
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,520
Baby, come back to me.

24
00:03:57,490 --> 00:04:00,680
But now I'm not so sure I believe in beginnings and endings.

25
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,320
There are days that define your story beyond your life.

26
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,060
Like the day they arrived.

27
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:22,090
Good morning.

28
00:04:22,090 --> 00:04:23,190
Morning. Morning.

29
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,120
Where is everyone?

30
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,650
Ok. Well, let's get started.

31
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,300
Today, we are talking about Portuguese,

32
00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:39,300
and why it sounds so different from the other Romance languages.

33
00:04:40,420 --> 00:04:44,420
The story of Portuguese begins in the Kingdom of Galicia...

34
00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:48,230
Sorry... in the Middle Ages,

35
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,220
where language was seen as an expression of art.

36
00:05:00,620 --> 00:05:01,920
Any news you want to share?

37
00:05:02,940 --> 00:05:06,060
Dr. Banks, can you turn the TV to a news channel?

38
00:05:23,380 --> 00:05:26,480
...but police have already set up the blockade here around the area.

39
00:05:26,580 --> 00:05:29,240
As you can see, we've gotten just about as close as we can,

40
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,160
but unfortunately, Montana, right now, is on complete lockdown.

41
00:05:34,220 --> 00:05:39,050
The object... apparently touched down 40 minutes ago just north of I-94.

42
00:05:39,330 --> 00:05:43,690
We're waiting to hear if this is perhaps an experimental vessel or...

43
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,250
Uh... Hold on.

44
00:05:46,900 --> 00:05:51,480
I'm learning that more objects like this have landed at as many as

45
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,580
eight other locations around the world. Yes. Can we?

46
00:05:56,660 --> 00:05:59,240
This is from a site in Hokkaido.

47
00:06:00,260 --> 00:06:03,250
This is worldwide, it is happening right now.

48
00:06:09,630 --> 00:06:11,230
Okay. Um...

49
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:14,500
That's... Class is dismissed.

50
00:06:54,590 --> 00:06:57,390
You are an idiot! You drove right into me!

51
00:06:57,690 --> 00:06:59,290
You just ruined my car!

52
00:07:02,690 --> 00:07:07,440
For now, we're simply asking for cooperation while authorities assess the object.

53
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,800
So, you're saying it's not ours? Do you even know if it's from Earth?

54
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,100
We're still collecting information. We're coordinating with other countries.

55
00:07:14,180 --> 00:07:17,300
We're not the only ones to have one of these in our backyard.

56
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,210
If this is some sort of peaceful first contact,

57
00:07:21,390 --> 00:07:24,310
why send twelve? Why not just one?

58
00:07:35,190 --> 00:07:37,390
Yeah, I know. I saw that, too.

59
00:07:40,390 --> 00:07:41,190
Uh-huh.

60
00:07:48,390 --> 00:07:51,590
I don't know, Mom. I'm watching the same news coverage you are.

61
00:07:55,140 --> 00:07:59,400
Well, Mom, please don't bother with that channel.

62
00:07:59,430 --> 00:08:02,330
How many times do I have to tell you those people are idiots?

63
00:08:05,620 --> 00:08:07,620
Yeah, well, do I sound nervous?

64
00:08:08,830 --> 00:08:10,430
Okay, exactly. So...

65
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:13,440
Um, Me? Yeah, um,

66
00:08:13,540 --> 00:08:15,090
you know me, I'm about the same.

67
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:21,600
Mom, I'm fine.

68
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:25,640
Okay, I'll call you later. Bye.

69
00:08:35,050 --> 00:08:41,070
And at around eight hours after landing, there are still no signs of what might be called "first contact".

70
00:08:41,070 --> 00:08:44,910
Now... now, the objects measure at least 1,500 feet tall...

71
00:08:44,910 --> 00:08:48,140
Two are reported to have penetrated Russian airspace,

72
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:52,720
one in Siberia, and the other off the coast of the Black Sea... suspended above the ocean.

73
00:08:52,860 --> 00:08:56,660
So far, there are 12 unidentified objects spread across the globe,

74
00:08:56,660 --> 00:08:59,370
There is no obvious logic to their locations

75
00:08:59,370 --> 00:09:03,950
and no evidence that the ships are even occu... who entertain the idea

76
00:09:03,950 --> 00:09:08,110
that if it is a kind of vessel, it may be unmanned.

77
00:09:08,490 --> 00:09:12,020
Regardless, we have a protocol for scenarios like this, but...

78
00:09:20,350 --> 00:09:35,400
Venezuela LIVE 2:12 AM ET

79
00:10:20,150 --> 00:10:22,200
After Tuesday's extraordinary events,

80
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,100
the President, this morning, has declared a state of emergency,

81
00:10:25,130 --> 00:10:29,610
with as many as 5,000 National Guard being deployed to the state of Montana alone.

82
00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:33,680
Borders are closed and flights have been grounded, stranding millions of travelers.

83
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,460
Panic buying of gas, water and food continue to escalate

84
00:10:37,500 --> 00:10:42,520
and federal authorities have temporarily lifted all caps on overtime for law enforcement.

85
00:10:43,020 --> 00:10:46,400
The ATF has put a temporarily ban on new gun licenses,

86
00:10:46,500 --> 00:10:50,440
forcing many independent suppliers of hunting equipment and firearms

87
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,300
to close their doors to the public.

88
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:57,900
48 hours later, and no further developments from the site of the 12 UFO. Two days.

89
00:10:57,980 --> 00:11:00,580
And already the public expects us to know the answers.

90
00:11:01,980 --> 00:11:03,200
I'm Colonel G.T. Weber.

91
00:11:05,560 --> 00:11:09,740
We never formally met, but two years ago, you did some Farsi translations for Army Intelligence.

92
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,590
You made quick work of those insurgent videos. You made quick work of those insurgents.

93
00:11:18,340 --> 00:11:19,540
You're on the top

94
00:11:20,580 --> 00:11:22,900
of everyone's list when it comes to translations.

95
00:11:23,820 --> 00:11:25,600
And you have another two years

96
00:11:26,150 --> 00:11:27,250
in the SSBI.

97
00:11:27,560 --> 00:11:29,680
So, you still have top-secret clearance.

98
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,500
That's why I'm in your office,

99
00:11:31,500 --> 00:11:32,610
and not at Berkeley.

100
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:34,840
Okay.

101
00:11:43,860 --> 00:11:45,780
I have something I need you to translate for me.

102
00:11:54,850 --> 00:11:55,950
Why are you here?

103
00:11:59,540 --> 00:12:01,470
Can you... can you understand us?

104
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,100
Where did you come from?

105
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:20,920
Now you heard it.

106
00:12:22,260 --> 00:12:23,340
What do you make of it?

107
00:12:26,990 --> 00:12:29,620
Is that ...? Yes.

108
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:33,460
How many?

109
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:35,220
How many what?

110
00:12:35,900 --> 00:12:38,560
Um... How many... um... speaking?

111
00:12:42,420 --> 00:12:43,320
Two.

112
00:12:45,230 --> 00:12:47,330
Assume they were not speaking at the same time.

113
00:12:49,180 --> 00:12:51,650
Are you... are you sure? Did they have mouths...

114
00:12:51,660 --> 00:12:54,080
How would you approach... translating this?

115
00:12:56,150 --> 00:12:57,120
Do you hear any words?

116
00:12:58,300 --> 00:12:58,990
Phrases?

117
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:03,340
I don't... I I I don't know.

118
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:05,500
So what can you tell me?

119
00:13:06,410 --> 00:13:09,760
I can tell you that it's impossible to translate from an audio file.

120
00:13:10,420 --> 00:13:13,010
I would need to be there to interact with them.

121
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,710
You didn't need that with the Farsi translations.

122
00:13:16,900 --> 00:13:20,030
I didn't need it because I already knew the language. But this, this is...

123
00:13:24,820 --> 00:13:26,080
I know what you're doing.

124
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,820
Tell me what I'm doing. I'm not taking you to Montana.

125
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,800
It's all I can do to keep it from turning into a tourist site for everybody who has a TS clearance.

126
00:13:32,820 --> 00:13:35,130
I'm just telling you what it would take to do this job.

127
00:13:35,620 --> 00:13:36,860
This is not a negotiation.

128
00:13:38,090 --> 00:13:38,870
If I leave here,

129
00:13:39,850 --> 00:13:40,800
your chance is gone.

130
00:13:49,460 --> 00:13:50,130
Good day.

131
00:13:51,470 --> 00:13:52,150
Colonel?

132
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,100
You mentioned Berkeley. Are you... going to ask Danvers next?

133
00:13:58,740 --> 00:13:59,580
Maybe.

134
00:14:00,630 --> 00:14:05,600
Before you commit him, ask him the Sanskrit word for "war" and its translation.

135
00:14:14,050 --> 00:14:17,730
An agreement on sharing scientific discoveries looks closure tonight,

136
00:14:17,810 --> 00:14:20,930
as Russia and China join talks at the United Nations.

137
00:14:21,450 --> 00:14:24,750
Meanwhile, financial markets across the world are in crisis

138
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:29,050
as the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell over 2,000 points

139
00:14:29,070 --> 00:14:31,140
in its worst weekly decline in history.

140
00:14:46,150 --> 00:14:48,310
Mornin'. Colonel.

141
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,320
Gavisti. He said it means "an argument".

142
00:14:52,570 --> 00:14:55,530
What do you say it means? "A desire for more cows".

143
00:14:56,180 --> 00:14:57,260
Pack your bags.

144
00:14:59,010 --> 00:15:01,770
All right, give me 20 minutes? We take off in 10.

145
00:15:03,130 --> 00:15:05,650
Dr. Banks. Right this way, please.

146
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:22,750
Contact and ready to approach... ready to approach...

147
00:15:22,750 --> 00:15:25,200
Excuse me, Dr. banks, let me make sure you're properly secured.

148
00:15:33,330 --> 00:15:35,850
You okay? Thanks.

149
00:16:15,950 --> 00:16:17,830
Sorry, I couldn't hear what you were saying.

150
00:16:18,870 --> 00:16:24,210
"Language is the foundation of civilization. It's the glue that holds a people together."

151
00:16:24,350 --> 00:16:26,770
"It's the first weapon drawn in a conflict."

152
00:16:27,950 --> 00:16:32,280
Louise, this is Ian Donnelly. Louise Banks, Ian Donnelly.

153
00:16:32,530 --> 00:16:35,070
It's quite a greeting. Yeah. Well, you wrote it.

154
00:16:35,700 --> 00:16:36,770
Yeah, but...

155
00:16:37,270 --> 00:16:41,830
It's the kind of thing you write as a preface, dazzle them with the basics.

156
00:16:41,930 --> 00:16:43,630
Yeah, it's great.

157
00:16:43,850 --> 00:16:46,910
Even if it's wrong. It's wrong?

158
00:16:46,910 --> 00:16:50,370
Well, the cornerstones of civilization isn't language, it's science.

159
00:16:51,570 --> 00:16:55,020
Ian is a theoretical physicist from Los Alamos.

160
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,660
You'll be reporting to me, but you'll be working with him, when you're in the Shell.

161
00:16:59,730 --> 00:17:01,300
That's what they're calling the UFO.

162
00:17:01,710 --> 00:17:05,060
Priority One: What do they want? Where are they from?

163
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:10,070
And beyond that: How did they get here? Are they capable of faster-than-light travel?

164
00:17:10,430 --> 00:17:13,330
Are they... I have a list of questions,

165
00:17:13,330 --> 00:17:17,700
that, you know, we can go over. Starting with the series of just a "handshake" of binary sequences...

166
00:17:17,700 --> 00:17:21,410
How about we just talk to them before we start throwing math problems at them?

167
00:17:23,610 --> 00:17:27,090
This is why you both here. To get these.

168
00:17:27,810 --> 00:17:29,210
I'll bring the coffee.

169
00:17:31,770 --> 00:17:33,450
Coffee with some aliens.

170
00:19:43,750 --> 00:19:47,750
All right. I want you to take these two to Dr. Kettler. Yes sir.

171
00:19:48,180 --> 00:19:52,640
Follow the captain to Medical. The procedure should take just a few minutes, and then, we'll get started.

172
00:20:04,430 --> 00:20:09,140
These men are gonna take care of your bags. I'll take your cell phones. Cell phones.

173
00:20:10,990 --> 00:20:14,720
Follow me. Put these on. You're gonna wear them at all times.

174
00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:16,300
...C report back.

175
00:20:22,750 --> 00:20:25,250
Not until they're here. Great.

176
00:20:28,690 --> 00:20:29,650
Sir, they're here.

177
00:20:30,590 --> 00:20:32,250
Louise Banks? Ian Donnelly?

178
00:20:32,930 --> 00:20:34,510
When was the last time either of you have eaten?

179
00:20:34,870 --> 00:20:36,290
Last night. Same.

180
00:20:36,290 --> 00:20:38,210
What's last time you did something stressful?

181
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:39,500
Does now count?

182
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,440
Just saying. Uh, who was being...

183
00:20:44,290 --> 00:20:45,640
carted off in the medevac?

184
00:20:46,250 --> 00:20:50,400
Not everyone is able to process experiences like this. I'm gonna get some blood from you,

185
00:20:51,010 --> 00:20:54,630
and give you an immunization dose that covers a battery of bacterial threats.

186
00:20:54,630 --> 00:20:57,130
Would you sign these, please? And roll up your sleeves.

187
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,800
Either of you claustrophobic? Nope. No.

188
00:21:00,810 --> 00:21:05,100
Currently taking any medications? Allergies? Pregnant?

189
00:21:05,690 --> 00:21:06,630
No.

190
00:21:06,830 --> 00:21:10,570
The booster is a kick to your system, so you may experience some side-effects,

191
00:21:10,570 --> 00:21:12,350
nausea, dzziness, headaches,

192
00:21:12,890 --> 00:21:14,760
a ringing in your ear like you have tinnitus.

193
00:21:15,380 --> 00:21:16,800
They wouldn't go, either way.

194
00:21:27,090 --> 00:21:28,300
You see what's happening to him?

195
00:21:28,450 --> 00:21:29,810
How does this even work?

196
00:21:29,830 --> 00:21:31,660
The readings do not change, but...

197
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,070
I don't know, it's like we're insects on a piece of paper, and they're...

198
00:21:35,170 --> 00:21:36,710
they're easing us out of the house.

199
00:21:37,130 --> 00:21:39,840
At exactly 112 minutes and 19 seconds,

200
00:21:40,190 --> 00:21:43,550
the gravity starts to shift and slides us out of the room.

201
00:21:43,780 --> 00:21:46,390
Have you found a scientific explanation for it?

202
00:21:46,830 --> 00:21:50,090
Like... is it for them? Uh no. We think it's for us.

203
00:21:50,690 --> 00:21:53,120
The air doesn't seem to circulate inside the chamber,

204
00:21:53,210 --> 00:21:55,530
so after about two hours, we run out of oxygen.

205
00:21:55,890 --> 00:22:00,320
It doesn't take 18 hours to pump fresh air into a room. Atmosphere...

206
00:22:02,650 --> 00:22:05,770
Excuse me? If their atmosphere is different from Earth,

207
00:22:06,150 --> 00:22:09,050
it would certainly take hours to... to rebalance the O2 content

208
00:22:09,050 --> 00:22:11,070
and pressure for us every time they open their door.

209
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,670
So you're saying they could suffocate us if they wanted?

210
00:22:14,730 --> 00:22:16,690
So this is agent David Halpern with the CIA.

211
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,960
Let me uh... get you two to your stations. Yes sir.

212
00:22:20,270 --> 00:22:22,670
Remember, we need answers as soon as possible.

213
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:24,430
What do they want? Where are they from?

214
00:22:25,150 --> 00:22:27,540
Why they're here? This is the priority. Yeah.

215
00:22:27,540 --> 00:22:28,530
Everyone.

216
00:22:28,850 --> 00:22:31,540
This is Dr. Ian Donnelly. He'll be running this team here.

217
00:22:31,540 --> 00:22:34,920
Yeah, have they... responded to anything? Shapes, patterns,

218
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,190
numbers, Fibonacci?

219
00:22:36,410 --> 00:22:39,010
We can't tell what they're saying when they respond to "hello", so...

220
00:22:40,620 --> 00:22:41,840
Don't get ahead of yourself.

221
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:45,990
What have you figured out?

222
00:22:46,050 --> 00:22:48,290
We're just getting started. Good Morning.

223
00:22:48,740 --> 00:22:50,950
Good Morning. This is Dr. Louise Banks.

224
00:22:51,210 --> 00:22:54,240
She'll be heading your team. Dr. Banks, glad to see you...

225
00:22:54,250 --> 00:22:56,480
Dr. Banks is taking over the mission from Dr. Waller.

226
00:22:58,290 --> 00:22:59,650
That's your 15-minute warning.

227
00:23:00,950 --> 00:23:02,140
You scuba-dive before?

228
00:23:05,510 --> 00:23:07,610
What kind of radiation exposure are we walking into?

229
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,590
Nominal, these are just for safety.

230
00:23:09,950 --> 00:23:12,400
So, is there any physical contact with the, um ...?

231
00:23:13,070 --> 00:23:15,690
Am I the only one having trouble saying "aliens"?

232
00:23:16,050 --> 00:23:19,090
There's a wall, like a glass wall. You can't get to them.

233
00:23:21,020 --> 00:23:22,130
So, what do they look like?

234
00:23:23,830 --> 00:23:25,330
You'll see soon enough. Hurry up.

235
00:23:26,330 --> 00:23:28,130
Thank you. Turn this way, please.

236
00:23:34,150 --> 00:23:36,210
All units, stand by. Over.

237
00:23:45,690 --> 00:23:47,450
The suits are clumsy at first,

238
00:23:47,890 --> 00:23:49,360
but you get used to them.

239
00:23:51,130 --> 00:23:52,910
Load up in the second vehicle.

240
00:23:54,350 --> 00:23:55,800
Hurry up, hurry up. Bring it over here.

241
00:23:55,850 --> 00:23:56,890
We're clear over here, sir.

242
00:23:56,890 --> 00:23:59,350
All set, sir. This is the last box for this truck. This truck's clear.

243
00:23:59,450 --> 00:24:00,650
Let's go!

244
00:24:00,670 --> 00:24:01,970
We'll be there in a few minutes.

245
00:24:02,950 --> 00:24:04,570
Make sure you hold on to something.

246
00:24:10,100 --> 00:24:12,450
We are now inside the demilitarized zone.

247
00:24:12,450 --> 00:24:15,350
Raise 1.2 klicks. Over.
-Copy, Alpha.

248
00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:19,300
We'll continue to monitor vitals and signal clarity from operations.

249
00:24:19,350 --> 00:24:21,810
Air picket's in position and fully operational.

250
00:24:21,850 --> 00:24:24,350
Countermeasures in place and ready for deployment. Over.

251
00:25:00,790 --> 00:25:04,420
Copy, condor. We will observe, but not initiate. Over.

252
00:25:04,900 --> 00:25:06,000
Watch your step.

253
00:25:07,510 --> 00:25:09,100
We'll keep Alpha channel open. Over.

254
00:25:09,660 --> 00:25:12,380
Alpha, be advised. Humidity increased since yesterday.

255
00:25:12,420 --> 00:25:16,370
Every 18 hours... the door opens up at the bottom.

256
00:25:19,030 --> 00:25:20,330
That's where we go in.

257
00:25:30,270 --> 00:25:33,520
Zero movement. Alpha detail, clear to proceed. Over.

258
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,520
Copy, condor. Beginning our ascent now. Over.

259
00:25:42,540 --> 00:25:43,580
Ten feet.

260
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:48,820
Five feet.

261
00:25:50,940 --> 00:25:52,850
21 Two, one...

262
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,040
Alpha clear to enter antechamber. Over.

263
00:26:20,500 --> 00:26:23,800
Copy, Condor. Moving into position. Over.

264
00:26:33,700 --> 00:26:35,180
Thirty feet from target.

265
00:26:35,630 --> 00:26:39,720
Suit telemetry now full strength, despite unknown interference. Over.

266
00:26:46,700 --> 00:26:49,450
Five feet. Two, one.

267
00:27:12,140 --> 00:27:15,850
Oxygen level: 20.3%. No known contaminates. Over.

268
00:27:15,850 --> 00:27:16,900
Vitals normal.

269
00:27:19,290 --> 00:27:20,840
Gravity at 0.97.

270
00:27:29,710 --> 00:27:31,840
Radio signals strength decreasing.

271
00:27:31,900 --> 00:27:34,550
90%. 85%. Fluctuating...

272
00:27:53,250 --> 00:27:54,710
Yeah, that just happened.

273
00:28:15,750 --> 00:28:18,030
All right, let's move. Time is wasting.

274
00:28:18,650 --> 00:28:19,850
You ready?

275
00:28:20,590 --> 00:28:21,770
You ready?

276
00:28:22,180 --> 00:28:23,110
Let's do it.

277
00:28:23,450 --> 00:28:26,830
Condor, I'm proceeding first with Captain Marks. Over.

278
00:28:29,510 --> 00:28:33,110
Radio signal strength 75%. Over.

279
00:28:33,110 --> 00:28:36,500
Landed. Gravity nominal in the antechamber. Over.

280
00:28:38,110 --> 00:28:39,380
It's all good, sir.

281
00:28:39,380 --> 00:28:41,060
You can proceed. Stand by.

282
00:28:41,710 --> 00:28:42,920
Okay, bring it up.

283
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:53,700
Vitals in line. Radio signal strength stable at 75%. Over.

284
00:28:55,210 --> 00:28:56,190
You okay?

285
00:29:00,030 --> 00:29:00,860
Yeah.

286
00:29:02,130 --> 00:29:03,150
Dr. Banks?

287
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,300
You can do this. Come on.

288
00:29:10,870 --> 00:29:13,070
I don't know. I... I think...

289
00:29:21,350 --> 00:29:22,350
Grab her.

290
00:29:35,500 --> 00:29:36,800
Dr. Donnelly, are you all right?

291
00:29:38,610 --> 00:29:40,530
Dr. Donnelly, you good?

292
00:29:42,500 --> 00:29:44,440
Dr. Donnelly, are you all right?

293
00:29:44,710 --> 00:29:46,210
Please respond. Over.

294
00:29:46,710 --> 00:29:47,630
Yeah.

295
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:52,490
Holy fuck!

296
00:29:58,200 --> 00:29:59,620
We're gonna go down there,

297
00:30:00,470 --> 00:30:02,960
and you're gonna start your job. Okay.

298
00:30:03,370 --> 00:30:04,730
Okay? Okay.

299
00:30:04,900 --> 00:30:08,010
Everybody, move out. Alpha detail is in position.

300
00:30:08,370 --> 00:30:09,670
Team is in position.

301
00:30:10,180 --> 00:30:11,190
We're on the move.

302
00:30:57,370 --> 00:30:59,270
Condor, Alpha's now in the nave.

303
00:30:59,810 --> 00:31:02,230
Setting up equipment and telemetry. Over.

304
00:31:22,250 --> 00:31:24,550
Oxygen level: 20.3%. Over.

305
00:31:34,950 --> 00:31:37,670
So... What happens now?

306
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:41,630
They arrive.

307
00:32:46,030 --> 00:32:47,130
Dr. Banks?

308
00:32:52,510 --> 00:32:53,620
Dr. Banks?

309
00:32:55,830 --> 00:32:56,950
You can start.

310
00:32:59,110 --> 00:33:02,100
Alpha detail, proceed directly through the decontamination...

311
00:33:02,150 --> 00:33:03,640
...to the inner airlock.

312
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:07,210
Do not stop until you have passed through the airlock doors.

313
00:33:07,460 --> 00:33:09,460
Do not attempt to remove hazmat suits

314
00:33:09,460 --> 00:33:11,920
without proper assistance of authorized personnel.

315
00:33:12,070 --> 00:33:14,680
Repeat: Hazmat suits without assistance

316
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,050
of authorized personnel.

317
00:33:16,050 --> 00:33:18,100
Wait... Just a minute. A minute.
-All right.

318
00:33:18,100 --> 00:33:19,500
Keep your head low.

319
00:33:31,810 --> 00:33:34,840
Clear. All right. Step on out, please. Now hold that.

320
00:33:38,710 --> 00:33:39,570
Am I fired?

321
00:33:40,330 --> 00:33:41,640
You did better than the last guy.

322
00:33:43,490 --> 00:33:45,130
That doesn't make me feel any better.

323
00:33:46,730 --> 00:33:49,590
You both have till 0200 hours to figure something out.

324
00:33:50,150 --> 00:33:51,710
Okay, what happens then?

325
00:33:52,590 --> 00:33:53,650
You go back in.

326
00:34:28,110 --> 00:34:33,020
Violence continues to spread across the US today, in the wake of the 12 landings.

327
00:34:33,020 --> 00:34:36,090
The President has declared a mandatory dusk-to-dawn curfew

328
00:34:36,110 --> 00:34:38,120
after the crack down by the National Guard

329
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,300
failed to prevent a third night of looting across the country.

330
00:34:41,850 --> 00:34:46,190
In North Dakota, 144 members of the St. Lawrence Pentecostal Cult

331
00:34:46,210 --> 00:34:49,320
are feared dead after they set their compound ablaze.

332
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:51,980
Their website claims the arrival of aliens

333
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:56,800
set in motion a prophecy that 12 sets of 12 should "follow the lamb".

334
00:35:06,500 --> 00:35:08,900
And this is Seven-November. Roger, stand by...

335
00:35:08,950 --> 00:35:10,250
Got that request...

336
00:35:13,500 --> 00:35:17,180
Uh, we're up in 15. You got any new intel?

337
00:35:17,210 --> 00:35:19,770
Yeah. We've been playing back some of their sounds.

338
00:35:20,690 --> 00:35:21,940
Where does that get you?

339
00:35:22,470 --> 00:35:25,790
Well, they play audio back at us from an unseen source.

340
00:35:26,580 --> 00:35:27,610
Audio of what?

341
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,970
Uh, it's bits of conversation from the room, random clips of dialogue.

342
00:35:32,790 --> 00:35:35,330
Really, we... we have nothing.

343
00:35:39,720 --> 00:35:41,960
T-minus 14 minutes to shell access.

344
00:35:42,350 --> 00:35:43,900
Are you receiving my signal?

345
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:45,600
Yes. It's sending.

346
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,600
Okay, thanks.
-Okay. Good hunting.

347
00:35:47,650 --> 00:35:48,700
Heading out.

348
00:35:48,720 --> 00:35:50,300
Checking in for radio. Are you receiving me?

349
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,300
You're coming in loud and clear.

350
00:35:54,050 --> 00:35:55,100
Good luck, Doctor.

351
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,180
Oxygen Tank Status: 1~6 FULL

352
00:36:04,770 --> 00:36:07,300
T-minus 9 minutes to shell access.

353
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,590
T-minus 9 minutes to shell access.

354
00:36:10,620 --> 00:36:13,390
What's that for? A visual aid.

355
00:36:14,730 --> 00:36:16,750
Look, I'm never gonna be able to speak their words

356
00:36:16,750 --> 00:36:17,870
if they are talking.

357
00:36:18,330 --> 00:36:20,290
But they might have some sort of written language

358
00:36:20,310 --> 00:36:23,550
or basis for... visual communication.

359
00:36:23,870 --> 00:36:25,590
Okay. Let's get started.

360
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:32,720
"Human"

361
00:36:36,140 --> 00:36:37,240
Human.

362
00:37:05,260 --> 00:37:06,470
Human.

363
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:11,470
I'm human.

364
00:37:12,790 --> 00:37:14,030
What are you?

365
00:37:25,450 --> 00:37:26,640
Human.

366
00:38:14,830 --> 00:38:16,030
Affirmative, Alpha...

367
00:38:17,330 --> 00:38:19,520
Oh my God! Are you getting this?

368
00:38:19,780 --> 00:38:21,710
Yes sir. It's uploading back to base camp.

369
00:38:23,730 --> 00:38:26,410
Louise, it's incredible!

370
00:38:41,490 --> 00:38:42,760
Human.

371
00:38:44,420 --> 00:38:45,630
Human.

372
00:38:47,210 --> 00:38:48,190
Human.

373
00:38:59,980 --> 00:39:02,570
Okay... Okay, slow down fellas.

374
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:04,570
Slow down.

375
00:39:22,050 --> 00:39:23,990
I don't wanna to take away from your success in there,

376
00:39:24,570 --> 00:39:27,130
but, Dr. Banks, is this really the right approach?

377
00:39:27,460 --> 00:39:30,520
Trying to teach 'em how to speak and read?

378
00:39:31,210 --> 00:39:33,390
That's gotta take longer. You're wrong.

379
00:39:34,050 --> 00:39:35,170
It's faster.

380
00:39:37,870 --> 00:39:39,010
Everything you do in there,

381
00:39:39,530 --> 00:39:41,390
I have to explain to a room full of men,

382
00:39:41,490 --> 00:39:45,310
whose first and last question, is "how can this be used against us?"

383
00:39:46,070 --> 00:39:47,270
So, you're gonna have to give me more than that.

384
00:39:49,990 --> 00:39:50,890
Kangaroo.

385
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:53,370
What is that?

386
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:55,340
In 1770,

387
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,900
Captain James Cook's ship ran aground

388
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,290
on the coast of Australia, and he led a party into the country

389
00:40:00,310 --> 00:40:01,950
and they met the Aboriginal people.

390
00:40:02,550 --> 00:40:04,890
One of the sailors pointed at the animals

391
00:40:04,890 --> 00:40:07,170
that hop around and put their babies in their pouch,

392
00:40:07,580 --> 00:40:10,670
and he asked what they were, and the Aborigines said "Kanguru".

393
00:40:13,210 --> 00:40:14,250
And the point is?

394
00:40:14,820 --> 00:40:19,220
It wasn't till later that they learned that "kanguru" means "I don't understand". So...

395
00:40:19,650 --> 00:40:22,240
I need this so that we don't misinterpret things in there,

396
00:40:22,240 --> 00:40:24,720
otherwise this is gonna to take 10 times as long.

397
00:40:26,750 --> 00:40:28,110
I can sell that for now.

398
00:40:29,790 --> 00:40:33,850
But I need you to submit your vocabulary words before the next session. Fair.

399
00:40:34,370 --> 00:40:36,190
And remember what happened to the Aborigines.

400
00:40:37,590 --> 00:40:40,400
A more advanced race nearly wiped them out.

401
00:40:48,630 --> 00:40:51,190
It's a good story. Thanks.

402
00:40:52,330 --> 00:40:55,470
It's not true, but it proves my point.

403
00:41:06,380 --> 00:41:10,910
HUMAN?

404
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:18,050
We think we were able to reproduce some prime number sequence back at them.

405
00:41:18,370 --> 00:41:21,190
So that's something. Well, congratulations. You're a parrot.

406
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,750
Well, it's a lot more than that, you cheeky bastard. Don't you see?

407
00:41:25,020 --> 00:41:27,140
They can't seem to follow our algebra.

408
00:41:27,530 --> 00:41:30,990
But complex behaviors? That clicks.

409
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:36,980
Well, that doesn't make any sense at all, does it?

410
00:41:42,420 --> 00:41:43,840
The problem is, not everyone shares

411
00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:46,370
our policy of being open with the aliens.

412
00:41:46,370 --> 00:41:47,810
Have you met General Shang?

413
00:41:48,850 --> 00:41:51,420
Call sign for him is "Big Domino." Whatever Shang does,

414
00:41:51,420 --> 00:41:53,700
at least four other nations will follow.

415
00:41:54,030 --> 00:41:56,680
Louise, you have to gain ground today.
-Okay.

416
00:41:56,860 --> 00:41:58,840
You have a vocabulary list for me? I do.

417
00:42:05,220 --> 00:42:07,760
You're gonna teach them your name and Ian's?

418
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,250
Yes, so that we can learn their names, if they have names,

419
00:42:11,250 --> 00:42:13,230
and then introduce pronouns later.

420
00:42:13,870 --> 00:42:15,400
These are all grade-school words.

421
00:42:16,150 --> 00:42:17,850
"Eat." "Walk."

422
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:21,050
Help me understand.

423
00:42:22,630 --> 00:42:24,000
Okay. Um...

424
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:29,100
Oh, no, no, no! Not the top!

425
00:42:30,430 --> 00:42:35,260
"What is your purpose on Earth?"

426
00:42:35,260 --> 00:42:36,940
Okay, this is where you wanna get to, right?

427
00:42:37,380 --> 00:42:38,520
That is the question. Okay.

428
00:42:38,850 --> 00:42:43,090
So, first, we need to make sure that they understand what a question is.

429
00:42:43,510 --> 00:42:48,640
Okay? The nature of a request for information along with a response.

430
00:42:49,030 --> 00:42:51,980
Then, we need to clarify

431
00:42:52,310 --> 00:42:56,400
the difference between a specific "you"... and a collective "you",

432
00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:00,890
because we don't... want to know why Joe Alien is here.

433
00:43:00,930 --> 00:43:03,250
We want to know why they all landed.

434
00:43:03,870 --> 00:43:07,090
And "purpose" requires an understanding of intent.

435
00:43:07,300 --> 00:43:10,060
We need to find out, do they make conscious choices?

436
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,520
Or is their motivation so instinctive

437
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:15,170
that they don't understand a "why" question at all?

438
00:43:15,570 --> 00:43:19,660
And... and biggest of all, we need to have enough vocabulary with them

439
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:21,100
that we understand their answer.

440
00:43:23,910 --> 00:43:24,760
I get it.

441
00:43:25,940 --> 00:43:26,990
Stick to your list.

442
00:43:28,220 --> 00:43:29,130
Just...

443
00:43:31,550 --> 00:43:32,930
Don't add anything to it.

444
00:43:47,050 --> 00:43:48,790
Gravity: 0.97.

445
00:43:48,830 --> 00:43:51,520
Oxygen level: 21.4%. Over.

446
00:43:51,770 --> 00:43:54,010
Condor, Alpha's now in the main.

447
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,410
Setting up equipment and telemetry. Over.

448
00:43:56,420 --> 00:43:57,330
Let's get started.

449
00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:09,260
"Louise."

450
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,080
Louise, I'm Louise.

451
00:44:19,220 --> 00:44:20,110
What is that?

452
00:44:22,670 --> 00:44:24,440
Is that a new symbol? I can't tell.

453
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,380
I don't know, I think it's the symbol for "human" again.

454
00:44:27,430 --> 00:44:29,850
It just has a little curl on the end,

455
00:44:30,010 --> 00:44:32,900
maybe to indicate a question. I don't know.

456
00:44:33,620 --> 00:44:36,770
I don't know, Louise. I think they're getting confused.

457
00:44:37,450 --> 00:44:40,290
Dr. Banks, perhaps we should move on to the next word.

458
00:44:59,940 --> 00:45:00,890
Dr. Banks?

459
00:45:03,070 --> 00:45:04,390
It's okay, Nate. What's going on?

460
00:45:04,390 --> 00:45:06,180
Hey hey hey!... What're you doing?

461
00:45:06,740 --> 00:45:08,450
Yeah, I'm fine. Are you insane?

462
00:45:09,020 --> 00:45:10,250
They need to see me.

463
00:45:10,500 --> 00:45:12,410
She's taking off her hazmat suit. Dr. Banks!

464
00:45:15,270 --> 00:45:17,520
Is it ok? You're risking contamination.

465
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,520
They need to see me. Dr. Banks...

466
00:45:22,370 --> 00:45:24,620
Dr. Banks! She's walking towards the screen.

467
00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:28,370
Should we abort?

468
00:45:29,060 --> 00:45:31,900
Request noted. Stand by for frag order.

469
00:45:31,900 --> 00:45:33,110
Go back to your stations.

470
00:46:48,540 --> 00:46:51,800
Now that's a proper introduction. Okay.

471
00:47:03,300 --> 00:47:04,160
"Louise."

472
00:47:07,610 --> 00:47:08,590
I am Louise.

473
00:47:09,910 --> 00:47:12,070
Ian, you want to introduce yourself?

474
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:16,920
Uh... Yeah.

475
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:21,470
Louise.

476
00:47:26,170 --> 00:47:27,290
Screw it.

477
00:47:32,620 --> 00:47:34,310
Everybody dies, right?

478
00:47:36,340 --> 00:47:38,690
Sir, Donnelly is taking off his hazmat suit.

479
00:47:39,030 --> 00:47:40,280
Permission to abort?

480
00:47:41,340 --> 00:47:42,550
Continue the session.

481
00:47:59,140 --> 00:47:59,990
Ian.

482
00:48:00,900 --> 00:48:01,850
Louise.

483
00:48:03,860 --> 00:48:04,830
You?

484
00:48:06,590 --> 00:48:07,670
Who are you?

485
00:48:35,700 --> 00:48:37,520
I think those are their names.

486
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:42,340
They have names.

487
00:48:43,150 --> 00:48:44,750
So, what are we gonna call them?

488
00:48:45,830 --> 00:48:46,850
I don't know.

489
00:48:48,260 --> 00:48:50,310
I was thinking Abbott and Costello.

490
00:48:53,440 --> 00:48:54,550
Yeah.

491
00:48:54,940 --> 00:48:56,800
Yeah? Yeah, I like it.

492
00:48:59,240 --> 00:49:00,310
I like it.

493
00:49:00,940 --> 00:49:01,890
Wow!

494
00:49:15,450 --> 00:49:20,210
Team One, exit your vehicles and proceed directly ahead to the decontamination tent.

495
00:49:26,330 --> 00:49:30,270
Leave your respirator on, until you reach the equipment room.

496
00:49:59,020 --> 00:50:01,640
I know. Shhh!

497
00:50:07,150 --> 00:50:12,460
Team two, exit your vehicle and continue to the decontamination tent.

498
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:15,290
Leave your respirators on

499
00:50:15,330 --> 00:50:18,520
and do not hesitate until you have reach the equipment room.

500
00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:25,520
How do you feel? Overworked.

501
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,350
Well, I guess I don't need to tell you, you're putting yourself at risk.

502
00:50:31,250 --> 00:50:33,670
There's no signs of radiation poisoning yet.

503
00:50:34,190 --> 00:50:35,830
We'll see how your blood tests look.

504
00:50:36,770 --> 00:50:38,990
For now, I'm gonna give you another boost. Okay.

505
00:50:40,940 --> 00:50:44,160
No radiation. Nothing else we can detect either,

506
00:50:44,260 --> 00:50:46,280
but I'd give 'em a strong cocktail, regardless.

507
00:50:46,780 --> 00:50:48,960
It's the first time we've made significant progress.

508
00:50:51,290 --> 00:50:54,110
All right. We'll take the risk.

509
00:50:55,540 --> 00:50:58,090
Okay. Honey... honey. What is going on there?

510
00:50:58,090 --> 00:51:01,230
Is there anything you can tell me? No.

511
00:51:01,290 --> 00:51:06,680
You don't need to worry, okay? How can I not worry? Just calm down. Just calm down.

512
00:51:07,370 --> 00:51:10,410
Becky asked me if the monsters are going to kill Daddy!

513
00:51:10,740 --> 00:51:12,950
Honey, it's not gonna happen.

514
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,670
Just stay safe. You don't need to worry.

515
00:51:18,670 --> 00:51:20,530
Please! I'm so scared.

516
00:51:23,950 --> 00:51:27,440
All junior xenolinguistics and science personnel

517
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:31,110
must observe general curfew unless expressly authorized

518
00:51:31,110 --> 00:51:34,290
for extended work hours by unit COs.

519
00:51:34,290 --> 00:51:37,270
Curfew in effect as of 2200 hours.

520
00:51:37,890 --> 00:51:41,550
Notice to all late workers, fire watchers and night staff.

521
00:51:41,550 --> 00:51:46,310
Effective immediately, midnight rations will be served all night.

522
00:52:34,990 --> 00:52:38,230
Here are some of the many things we don't know about heptapods.

523
00:52:38,720 --> 00:52:41,730
Greek: Hepta, "seven." Pod, "foot."

524
00:52:42,230 --> 00:52:44,350
"Seven feet." Heptapod.

525
00:52:46,370 --> 00:52:47,610
Who are they?

526
00:52:48,910 --> 00:52:52,860
Trying to answer this in any meaningful way is hampered by the fact that,

527
00:52:53,220 --> 00:52:55,890
outside being able to see them and hear them.

528
00:52:56,070 --> 00:52:58,630
The heptapods leave absolutely no footprint.

529
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:03,400
The chemical composition of their spaceship is unknown.

530
00:53:03,900 --> 00:53:07,450
The Shell emits no waste, no gas, no radiation.

531
00:53:08,180 --> 00:53:10,680
Assuming that the Shells communicate with each other,

532
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:12,480
they do so without detection.

533
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:17,700
The air between the Shells is untroubled by sonic emissions or light wave.

534
00:53:19,730 --> 00:53:22,310
Are they scientists or tourists?

535
00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:26,010
If they're scientists, they don't seem to ask a lot of questions.

536
00:53:28,730 --> 00:53:30,790
Why did they park where they did?

537
00:53:31,530 --> 00:53:34,240
The world's most decorated experts can't crack that one.

538
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:37,960
The most plausible theory is that they chose places on earth

539
00:53:38,020 --> 00:53:40,230
with the lowest incidence of lightning strikes.

540
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:42,460
But there are exceptions.

541
00:53:42,970 --> 00:53:46,390
The next most plausible theory is that Sheena Easton had a hit song

542
00:53:46,390 --> 00:53:48,090
at each of these sites in 1980.

543
00:53:48,190 --> 00:53:49,810
So... we just don't know.

544
00:53:52,700 --> 00:53:54,050
How do they communicate?

545
00:53:55,130 --> 00:53:57,430
Here, Louise is putting us all to shame.

546
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:01,320
The first breakthrough was to discover that there's no correlation

547
00:54:01,900 --> 00:54:05,720
between what a heptapod says, and what a heptapod writes.

548
00:54:11,890 --> 00:54:14,830
"IAN Walks"

549
00:54:21,260 --> 00:54:23,570
Unlike all written human languages,

550
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:25,810
their writing is semasiographic.

551
00:54:26,220 --> 00:54:29,290
It conveys meaning. It doesn't represent sound.

552
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:38,110
Perhaps they view our form of writing as a wasted opportunity,

553
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:41,450
passing up a second communications channel.

554
00:54:46,740 --> 00:54:48,750
We have our friends in Pakistan to thank

555
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:51,190
for their study of how heptapods write.

556
00:54:52,670 --> 00:54:54,140
Because, unlike speech,

557
00:54:54,410 --> 00:54:56,380
a logogram is free of time.

558
00:54:59,500 --> 00:55:01,760
Like their ship or their bodies,

559
00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:05,110
their written language has no forward or backward direction.

560
00:55:05,950 --> 00:55:08,910
Linguists call this "nonlinear orthography,"

561
00:55:09,190 --> 00:55:12,490
which raises the question: "Is this how they think?"

562
00:55:14,620 --> 00:55:17,490
Imagine you wanted to write a sentence using two hands,

563
00:55:17,490 --> 00:55:19,060
starting from either side.

564
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:22,780
You would have to know each word you wanted to use,

565
00:55:22,890 --> 00:55:25,460
as well as how much space that it would occupy.

566
00:55:27,730 --> 00:55:31,730
A heptapod can write a complex sentence in two seconds, effortlessly.

567
00:55:32,010 --> 00:55:34,810
It's taking us a month to make the simplest reply.

568
00:55:35,550 --> 00:55:38,030
Next, expanding vocabulary.

569
00:55:38,520 --> 00:55:41,830
Louise thinks it can easily take another month to be ready for that.

570
00:55:59,260 --> 00:56:00,150
Hey.

571
00:56:01,530 --> 00:56:04,520
Oh, hey. Weber's looking for you.

572
00:56:05,890 --> 00:56:07,800
Yeah, well, why do you think I'm hiding out here?

573
00:56:10,050 --> 00:56:11,080
Come on up.

574
00:56:12,150 --> 00:56:12,800
Come on.

575
00:56:13,410 --> 00:56:14,270
Thanks.

576
00:56:17,770 --> 00:56:21,390
Nice out here, huh? Yeah, it's a nice view.

577
00:56:22,780 --> 00:56:24,050
Away from the noise.

578
00:56:27,820 --> 00:56:29,660
You know, I was just thinking about you.

579
00:56:32,850 --> 00:56:35,580
You approach language like a mathematician. You know that, right?

580
00:56:38,490 --> 00:56:40,140
I will take that as a compliment.

581
00:56:40,980 --> 00:56:42,450
Yeah, well, it is.

582
00:56:44,300 --> 00:56:48,310
It's... I watch you steer us around these communication traps

583
00:56:48,310 --> 00:56:49,970
that I didn't even know existed.

584
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:51,830
Say what?

585
00:56:54,390 --> 00:56:56,080
I guess that's why I'm single.

586
00:56:56,250 --> 00:56:59,420
Trust me, you can... understand communication

587
00:56:59,420 --> 00:57:00,800
and still end up single.

588
00:57:10,500 --> 00:57:12,990
I feel like everything that happens in there...

589
00:57:14,130 --> 00:57:15,940
comes down to the two of us.

590
00:57:17,740 --> 00:57:21,240
Yeah, it's a good thing though, right? You and I?

591
00:57:24,930 --> 00:57:27,650
Have you seen the jokers that we're working with?

592
00:57:28,710 --> 00:57:29,810
I'm glad I got you.

593
00:57:34,660 --> 00:57:37,110
ALIEN CRISIS DAY 25 VENEZUELA

594
00:57:37,130 --> 00:57:39,450
ALIEN CRISIS DAY 25 SIERRA LEONE

595
00:57:39,460 --> 00:57:41,280
ALIEN CRISIS DAY 25 UNITED KINGDOM: SAVE OUR SPECIES!

596
00:57:41,280 --> 00:57:44,720
Tonight, the first photograph of the aliens goes viral.

597
00:57:45,610 --> 00:57:48,230
Biological contamination is a major risk factor

598
00:57:48,230 --> 00:57:51,880
at the Montana site, so say environmental pressure groups.

599
00:57:52,010 --> 00:57:54,210
800,000 march on Washington

600
00:57:54,210 --> 00:57:56,690
to protest the government's handling of the crisis.

601
00:57:56,860 --> 00:57:59,330
All this, and more special coverage.

602
00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:03,710
First contact with whoever it is that is inside that thing,

603
00:58:03,710 --> 00:58:06,330
and who do we have running the show? The government. That's right, folks.

604
00:58:06,500 --> 00:58:10,180
The same government who ruined our healthcare and bankrupted our military.

605
00:58:10,530 --> 00:58:13,340
Look at these people. Most of them don't even have guns.

606
00:58:13,870 --> 00:58:16,000
We could be facing a full-scale invasion,

607
00:58:16,010 --> 00:58:19,600
and our President is just willing to sit back and let them waltz in and take our country.

608
00:58:19,890 --> 00:58:22,380
We are falling asleep at the wheel, people.

609
00:58:22,380 --> 00:58:24,260
You know what I'm talking about. I know you do.

610
00:58:24,430 --> 00:58:28,770
What if the smartest thing we could do right now would be to give them a show of force?

611
00:58:28,770 --> 00:58:31,050
I'm talking about a shot across the bow.

612
00:58:31,050 --> 00:58:34,640
I wanna hear what do you think. Caller number one, you're on the air. What do you think about all this?

613
00:59:01,310 --> 00:59:02,400
What's this word?

614
00:59:18,870 --> 00:59:21,000
"Planet." "Green."

615
00:59:21,050 --> 00:59:22,330
No, no.

616
00:59:25,930 --> 00:59:29,140
That's, like um... "The Earth is a planet".

617
00:59:30,010 --> 00:59:32,520
Want to see my project from Miss Garrett's class?

618
00:59:33,060 --> 00:59:34,080
Yeah, little nose.

619
00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:39,850
We had to make up our own TV show.

620
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:41,910
If we had one.

621
00:59:43,290 --> 00:59:45,770
And who are those two people? That's you and Dad.

622
00:59:46,570 --> 00:59:49,340
The show is called "Mommy and Daddy Talk to Animals."

623
00:59:49,630 --> 00:59:52,820
Oh. Well, it's lovely.

624
00:59:57,610 --> 00:59:58,600
Okay.

625
01:00:02,860 --> 01:00:06,290
You know it's okay to be sad that your dad and I... I know. I'm not.

626
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:10,570
'Cause We both love you very much.

627
01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:13,460
I know. It's just a cartoon. Not real.

628
01:00:13,810 --> 01:00:14,630
Louise?

629
01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:20,500
You all right?

630
01:00:21,900 --> 01:00:23,000
Yeah.

631
01:00:23,690 --> 01:00:24,890
Yeah, I'm... I'm fine.

632
01:00:27,340 --> 01:00:29,130
I'm not sure it's something I can...

633
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:30,890
I can explain.

634
01:00:31,140 --> 01:00:32,730
When was your last checkup with Dr. Kettler?

635
01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:35,130
I'm okay.

636
01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:38,050
I'm gonna get some air. I'm out.

637
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,970
I'm okay. All right. I'm fine. Yeah.

638
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:42,510
How you feeling?

639
01:01:47,270 --> 01:01:49,030
I need some sleep, but...

640
01:01:49,770 --> 01:01:50,670
I'm fine.

641
01:01:51,790 --> 01:01:52,810
Yeah.

642
01:01:54,570 --> 01:01:57,860
You know, I was doing some reading, um, about this idea that...

643
01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:02,330
if you immerse yourself into a foreign language, then you can actually...

644
01:02:02,660 --> 01:02:06,460
rewind your brain. Yeah, the Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis.

645
01:02:07,570 --> 01:02:08,950
The theory that, uh...

646
01:02:09,810 --> 01:02:11,530
It... it's the theory that um...

647
01:02:11,810 --> 01:02:14,930
the language you speak determines how you think and...

648
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:18,530
Yeah. It affects how you... see everything. It was, uh...

649
01:02:19,630 --> 01:02:23,260
I'm curious, are you dreaming in their language?

650
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:35,590
I may have had a few dreams, but I don't...

651
01:02:37,810 --> 01:02:41,070
I don't think that that makes me unfit to do this job.

652
01:03:01,070 --> 01:03:03,270
Did you sleep? A little.

653
01:03:04,500 --> 01:03:05,800
Do you know Mandarin?

654
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:11,520
It is shifting.

655
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:22,430
The voice you're about to hear belongs to China's military chief,

656
01:03:24,470 --> 01:03:25,470
General Shang.

657
01:03:26,850 --> 01:03:27,750
Put it up.

658
01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:34,100
We got a satellite feed here of who he's talking to, if you want to look.

659
01:03:35,820 --> 01:03:36,770
Wait, go back.

660
01:03:38,730 --> 01:03:39,650
Stop.

661
01:03:42,270 --> 01:03:45,520
He's saying that each of the twelve is offering advanced technology.

662
01:03:48,470 --> 01:03:50,390
And back again... and play.

663
01:03:54,340 --> 01:03:57,430
"Our science team is attempting to decode the um ..."

664
01:03:57,510 --> 01:04:00,720
"sets"?... "Sets." I don't know what that means.

665
01:04:01,680 --> 01:04:02,960
Something about advantage.

666
01:04:03,410 --> 01:04:06,880
"Suits, honor, and... flowers." I don't...

667
01:04:08,810 --> 01:04:12,060
I don't know, that's all. I don't know what it means either.

668
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,090
An hour ago, China mobilized forces.

669
01:04:15,730 --> 01:04:17,310
And now, Russia is following suit.

670
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:19,910
Shang's about to start something.

671
01:04:20,700 --> 01:04:22,510
Following suit, "Suits".

672
01:04:24,770 --> 01:04:27,140
Suits. Honor. Flowers.

673
01:04:27,380 --> 01:04:29,750
Colonel, those are all... tile sets in mahjong.

674
01:04:32,020 --> 01:04:33,110
God, are they...

675
01:04:34,010 --> 01:04:36,690
Are they using a game to converse with their heptapods?

676
01:04:38,750 --> 01:04:40,380
Maybe. Why?

677
01:04:40,470 --> 01:04:43,960
Well, let's say that I taught them chess instead of English.

678
01:04:44,350 --> 01:04:48,540
Every conversation would be a game, every idea expressed through opposition,

679
01:04:48,630 --> 01:04:50,550
victory, defeat. You see the problem?

680
01:04:52,150 --> 01:04:54,470
If all I ever gave you was a hammer...

681
01:04:54,980 --> 01:04:56,850
Everything's a nail.

682
01:04:58,650 --> 01:05:00,380
We need to ask the big question.

683
01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:02,910
Ready or not.

684
01:05:07,420 --> 01:05:08,460
Right, so...

685
01:05:08,460 --> 01:05:10,460
Okay, let me know what temperature you use, okay?

686
01:05:11,860 --> 01:05:14,430
No, this is the same as before.

687
01:05:15,020 --> 01:05:16,070
See.

688
01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:18,550
Yeah, no, but between three and four.

689
01:05:20,410 --> 01:05:21,470
All right, time to go.

690
01:05:32,900 --> 01:05:35,800
Ninety-six minutes remaining in the session. Over.

691
01:05:44,610 --> 01:05:45,660
Okay...

692
01:05:49,860 --> 01:05:51,530
Heptapod's purpose.

693
01:06:02,610 --> 01:06:05,160
Heptapod purpose. Earth. What is your purpose?

694
01:06:12,870 --> 01:06:14,240
Do we only have Costello?

695
01:06:19,440 --> 01:06:20,890
Okay. There you are.

696
01:06:43,810 --> 01:06:44,830
What does it say?

697
01:06:53,660 --> 01:06:54,810
"Offer weapon".

698
01:06:59,890 --> 01:07:01,110
But you saw what they wrote.

699
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,200
Using a word they don't fully under... understand. It could be just a request. Or a warning.

700
01:07:04,220 --> 01:07:05,090
Enough!

701
01:07:05,750 --> 01:07:06,610
Louise?

702
01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:09,590
We don't know... if they understand

703
01:07:09,700 --> 01:07:12,420
the difference between a weapon and a tool.

704
01:07:12,850 --> 01:07:16,650
Our language, like our culture, is messy, and sometimes... one can be both.

705
01:07:16,660 --> 01:07:20,040
I think it's quite possible that they're asking us to offer them something,

706
01:07:20,230 --> 01:07:21,350
not the other way around,

707
01:07:22,160 --> 01:07:23,310
like the first part of a trade.

708
01:07:23,650 --> 01:07:26,770
So, how do we clarify their intentions... beyond those two words?

709
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:30,570
Well, I go back in. Right away, we go back in and we, we clear this up.

710
01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:33,460
It's more complicated than that. How is it more complicated than that?

711
01:07:34,850 --> 01:07:37,660
Colonel, the Secretary of Defense is on the line for you.

712
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:47,940
We need to sit on this information till we know what it means.

713
01:07:48,760 --> 01:07:51,810
So we aren't sharing it with our enemies. We have to consider the idea

714
01:07:51,810 --> 01:07:54,180
that our visitors are prodding us to fight among ourselves

715
01:07:54,190 --> 01:07:56,300
until only one fraction prevails.

716
01:07:56,370 --> 01:07:58,370
There's no evidence of that. Sure there is.

717
01:07:59,030 --> 01:08:00,430
Just grab a history book.

718
01:08:01,290 --> 01:08:03,750
The British with India, the Germans with Rwanda.

719
01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:06,980
They even got a name for it in Hungary.

720
01:08:12,080 --> 01:08:13,000
Yeah.

721
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:15,890
We're a world with no single leader.

722
01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:18,910
It's impossible to deal with just one of us.

723
01:08:19,260 --> 01:08:20,820
And with the word "weapon" now...

724
01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,770
Halpern... Yes, sir.

725
01:08:39,600 --> 01:08:42,500
Copy that. Waiting for instructions.

726
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:44,030
No confirmation yet.

727
01:08:44,440 --> 01:08:45,520
Standing by.

728
01:08:46,250 --> 01:08:46,990
Anything?

729
01:08:48,690 --> 01:08:49,730
What did they say?

730
01:08:51,140 --> 01:08:53,670
China and Russia are off the grid. They aren't speaking to anyone.

731
01:08:53,860 --> 01:08:56,710
Whatever they learned in their last session has them spooked.

732
01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:00,200
Yes, sir.

733
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:02,680
We have orders to do the same.

734
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:05,940
Wait, these are our allies! Colonel, you can't shut us down! Put us on radio silence.

735
01:09:05,990 --> 01:09:08,820
Do it. We received a message from the hep...

736
01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:10,750
Damn it!

737
01:09:11,750 --> 01:09:13,320
We need to be talking to each other!

738
01:09:13,330 --> 01:09:15,230
You want to talk to them? Find out what this means.

739
01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:23,250
Base-camp talk is now offline.

740
01:09:23,510 --> 01:09:25,990
All interpreters and international liaisons... No conformation .They're offline.

741
01:09:25,990 --> 01:09:28,920
...stand down and report to unit coordinators.

742
01:09:31,190 --> 01:09:33,290
We've never re-entered a session before.

743
01:09:33,530 --> 01:09:36,070
Look, Louise, trust me, okay? We've got time.

744
01:09:36,130 --> 01:09:37,350
We've just gotta step on it, all right?

745
01:09:38,780 --> 01:09:40,270
"Use weapon."

746
01:09:40,480 --> 01:09:44,100
This is the alien message said to provoke the Chinese government

747
01:09:44,110 --> 01:09:47,550
to withdraw their scientists from the international mission today.

748
01:09:48,230 --> 01:09:50,530
In a statement, General Shang said:

749
01:09:50,590 --> 01:09:53,910
"China no longer trusts the aliens who want to divide us."

750
01:09:54,170 --> 01:09:56,070
"Humanity must be protected."

751
01:09:56,420 --> 01:09:59,040
China has asked for immediate talks at the UN.

752
01:10:02,420 --> 01:10:04,990
Alpha one-niner, this is Condor. Over.

753
01:10:09,680 --> 01:10:13,340
Alpha one-niner, this is Condor. Come in. Over.

754
01:10:18,790 --> 01:10:21,970
Captain Marks, Condor, not receiving transmission.

755
01:10:21,990 --> 01:10:23,720
Squelch twice if you can hear mine.

756
01:10:24,990 --> 01:10:28,560
Captain Marks, all escorts groups are ordered to cease all activity.

757
01:10:59,110 --> 01:11:01,420
No, no, no, no, no... Dr. Banks, you can't go in there.

758
01:11:01,430 --> 01:11:03,720
We just need to ask one question. Dr. Banks!

759
01:11:04,590 --> 01:11:07,790
The session is finished. You can't... you can't go back in. It's dangerous...

760
01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:09,570
Look, we just need 5 minutes. Don't sweat it.

761
01:11:09,580 --> 01:11:11,380
Marks, let them go.

762
01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:15,630
Hey, Abbott.

763
01:11:21,230 --> 01:11:24,300
So, what are we calling this, Session 37?

764
01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:28,400
Uh... No, 36, part II. Okay. Yeah.

765
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:35,800
Why they on their own?

766
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:37,780
We've been attempting to hail Captain Marks.

767
01:11:37,990 --> 01:11:41,450
The escort units are not responding, sir. Why not?

768
01:11:42,270 --> 01:11:43,210
Send security.

769
01:11:46,840 --> 01:11:50,130
"Offer weapon. Question mark."

770
01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:57,010
Are you offering us something?

771
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:09,400
"Technology. Apparatus. Method"?

772
01:12:09,700 --> 01:12:11,610
Yeah, see, this is a different word.

773
01:12:11,790 --> 01:12:14,230
This... this segment, it's a lot busier.

774
01:12:19,870 --> 01:12:23,180
"Give... Technology"

775
01:12:25,100 --> 01:12:26,130
"... Now".

776
01:12:34,950 --> 01:12:35,910
What's he doing?

777
01:12:41,970 --> 01:12:43,820
Captain, on your ten.

778
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:49,600
Mutineers are to be apprehended without engaging.

779
01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:51,600
We don't want to risk antagonizing our visitors. Over.

780
01:12:53,340 --> 01:12:55,070
Securities detail inbound, sir.

781
01:12:55,080 --> 01:12:57,960
T-minus 4 minutes remaining. We need to see this through.

782
01:12:58,460 --> 01:13:02,720
Ok. This is it. Lock and load. We just need to hold them off until it's done. Copy that.

783
01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:04,460
Warning shots and suppressive fire only.

784
01:13:04,480 --> 01:13:08,010
Load up and get to cover. Stay fresh and we can avoid casualties.

785
01:13:34,980 --> 01:13:36,850
Abbott wants me to write on the barrier.

786
01:13:42,520 --> 01:13:43,760
Can you even do that?

787
01:13:45,570 --> 01:13:46,530
I don't know.

788
01:14:03,140 --> 01:14:04,790
I can't do it with both hands.

789
01:15:16,700 --> 01:15:17,720
Louise.

790
01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:34,200
What is that?

791
01:15:34,200 --> 01:15:37,000
Free fire! Over there! I'm hit! I'm hit!

792
01:16:20,140 --> 01:16:22,370
Hey! Hey hey hey hey... Take it easy.

793
01:16:22,780 --> 01:16:25,070
You suffered a concussion. Just lay back.

794
01:16:28,590 --> 01:16:29,490
How are you feeling?

795
01:16:38,790 --> 01:16:41,700
How is Ian? Same as you. He's okay.

796
01:16:43,770 --> 01:16:46,410
Who, um... Who did this?

797
01:16:46,750 --> 01:16:49,770
Ah... some Soldiers. Been watching too much TV.

798
01:16:53,860 --> 01:16:57,020
What is that? Now, take it easy... take it easy.

799
01:16:57,470 --> 01:17:00,750
This site's no longer secure. We're standing by to evacuate.

800
01:17:01,170 --> 01:17:02,330
Where's Ian?

801
01:17:03,610 --> 01:17:05,750
Weber came and got him maybe 10 minutes ago.

802
01:17:06,750 --> 01:17:08,800
But he wouldn't leave until he knew you were okay.

803
01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:16,250
The whole tent is on the clock to figure out whatever it is you were giving up there.

804
01:17:22,890 --> 01:17:23,930
This is all of it.

805
01:17:24,910 --> 01:17:26,800
The feed wasn't interrupted by the explosion?

806
01:17:28,020 --> 01:17:29,080
Not as far as we can see.

807
01:17:31,900 --> 01:17:34,340
You see something? Oh, I don't know yet.

808
01:17:35,140 --> 01:17:37,770
I'm gonna need my team to get together with Louise's team.

809
01:17:37,790 --> 01:17:40,230
I need everyone working on this. We can not leave.

810
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:42,850
Glad to see you're awake. We need to go back in

811
01:17:42,850 --> 01:17:44,640
and we need to explain to them this wasn't our fault.

812
01:17:44,650 --> 01:17:46,480
We can't go back inside. We have to tell them... We have to!

813
01:17:47,450 --> 01:17:49,100
What happened in there was an attack.

814
01:17:49,310 --> 01:17:51,990
We can hope for the best, but I have orders to prepare for retaliation.

815
01:17:52,390 --> 01:17:53,510
We may have to evacuate.

816
01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:56,800
No, that's the wrong move. As long as they stay, we have to stay.

817
01:18:31,560 --> 01:18:32,670
Well, they are not leaving.

818
01:18:35,110 --> 01:18:36,890
Why does this feel worse?

819
01:18:41,990 --> 01:18:43,580
China, is on the offensive.

820
01:18:43,860 --> 01:18:47,130
They're positioning the military to blow the alien vessel right out of the sky.

821
01:18:47,300 --> 01:18:50,590
And if this happens, we can't sit around waiting for retaliation,

822
01:18:50,590 --> 01:18:51,990
so get prepared.

823
01:18:52,840 --> 01:18:55,370
The Air Force and infantry are standing by.

824
01:18:55,610 --> 01:18:56,260
Yes, sir.

825
01:18:56,440 --> 01:18:58,260
Breaking News

826
01:18:58,310 --> 01:19:01,580
Tonight, China becomes the first world power

827
01:19:01,600 --> 01:19:04,050
to declare war against the aliens.

828
01:19:04,660 --> 01:19:08,140
Following the failure of the diplomatic efforts at the United Nations,

829
01:19:08,150 --> 01:19:11,550
China has confirmed that its language experts have, tonight,

830
01:19:11,590 --> 01:19:14,350
delivered an ultimatum at the Shanghai site.

831
01:19:14,760 --> 01:19:16,110
In a televised statement,

832
01:19:16,120 --> 01:19:19,100
General Shang, Chairman of the People's Liberation Army,

833
01:19:19,260 --> 01:19:23,000
said the aliens have 24 hours to leave Chinese territory

834
01:19:23,030 --> 01:19:24,560
or face destruction.

835
01:19:24,770 --> 01:19:27,910
And he urged all other world leaders to unite with China

836
01:19:28,030 --> 01:19:29,970
and take a similar stance.

837
01:19:30,530 --> 01:19:33,810
With a huge build up of forces at their landing sites,

838
01:19:34,000 --> 01:19:36,170
Pakistan, Russia and Sudan

839
01:19:36,210 --> 01:19:38,610
are thought to be following China's lead.

840
01:19:54,690 --> 01:19:55,800
It can't be random.

841
01:20:12,150 --> 01:20:13,630
It's going to take us years.

842
01:20:19,340 --> 01:20:20,470
What's this term here?

843
01:20:25,060 --> 01:20:25,930
Mom.

844
01:20:29,150 --> 01:20:30,290
Mom? Hmm?

845
01:20:31,330 --> 01:20:36,170
Sweetie? Uh, what's this term for that thing... like a technical term.

846
01:20:36,770 --> 01:20:39,420
Where we make a deal, and we both get something out of it?

847
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:42,940
Uh... "Compromise"? No...

848
01:20:43,670 --> 01:20:45,510
Like, it's a competition,

849
01:20:46,230 --> 01:20:48,240
but both sides end up happy.

850
01:20:50,200 --> 01:20:51,430
Like a win-win?

851
01:20:52,310 --> 01:20:53,830
More science-y than that.

852
01:20:54,370 --> 01:20:56,030
If you want science, call your father.

853
01:21:11,230 --> 01:21:12,060
Thank you.

854
01:21:23,250 --> 01:21:24,250
Sorry.

855
01:21:25,130 --> 01:21:27,350
It's okay. I'm up.

856
01:21:32,460 --> 01:21:33,470
What time is it?

857
01:21:35,450 --> 01:21:37,210
It's time you open that bottle you've been hiding.

858
01:21:42,090 --> 01:21:43,520
You cracked something, didn't you?

859
01:21:44,710 --> 01:21:45,790
Yeah, come here.

860
01:21:47,790 --> 01:21:51,200
Take a look at this section. It seems to be talking about time.

861
01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:54,760
Their symbol for "time"... is everywhere.

862
01:21:55,250 --> 01:21:56,290
So what is this?

863
01:21:57,870 --> 01:21:59,760
A formula for faster-than-light travel?

864
01:22:01,060 --> 01:22:02,010
Who can tell?

865
01:22:03,330 --> 01:22:05,690
There are too many gaps. Nothing's complete.

866
01:22:06,350 --> 01:22:07,370
Then it dawned on me.

867
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:09,050
Come here.

868
01:22:10,930 --> 01:22:11,790
Right here.

869
01:22:13,450 --> 01:22:15,930
Stop focusing on the ones, look at the zeros.

870
01:22:16,420 --> 01:22:19,450
How much of this data? How much of it is negative space?

871
01:22:21,130 --> 01:22:22,070
So, I measured it.

872
01:22:24,630 --> 01:22:26,360
0.0833 recurring.

873
01:22:32,880 --> 01:22:34,450
Perhaps you'd like that as a fraction.

874
01:22:38,470 --> 01:22:39,490
One of twelfth.

875
01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:46,390
What they're saying right here is that this is one of twelfth.

876
01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:50,480
We are part of a larger whole. Or we're one of 12 contestants for the prize.

877
01:22:50,510 --> 01:22:53,020
Why do I have to talk to him? We're all working together here.

878
01:22:53,200 --> 01:22:55,210
We need to talk to the other sites.

879
01:22:55,510 --> 01:22:57,980
We need to help them with what they've gotten from the other heptapods.

880
01:22:57,980 --> 01:22:59,780
In case you don't remember, we're blacked out.

881
01:22:59,950 --> 01:23:02,850
China just threatened to destroy their Shell. We are on our own.

882
01:23:02,850 --> 01:23:04,540
Yeah, but this says that all of the pieces fit together...

883
01:23:04,540 --> 01:23:06,600
And I'm telling you that no one else cares.

884
01:23:07,580 --> 01:23:10,670
Two hours ago, we pulled this audio off a secured channel in Russia.

885
01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:13,260
Someone on the science team there was broadcasting wide.

886
01:23:15,780 --> 01:23:18,390
In their final session, the alien said:

887
01:23:18,500 --> 01:23:21,660
"There's no time. Many become one."

888
01:23:22,780 --> 01:23:24,620
I fear we have all been given weapons.

889
01:23:25,110 --> 01:23:26,790
If anyone is receiving this,

890
01:23:27,630 --> 01:23:28,400
please...

891
01:23:34,530 --> 01:23:35,760
Well, I mean...

892
01:23:37,210 --> 01:23:39,600
There are a lot of ways you can interpret what he's said.

893
01:23:39,610 --> 01:23:41,970
I don't need an interpreter to know what this means.

894
01:23:41,970 --> 01:23:45,740
Russia just executed one of their own experts to keep their secret.

895
01:23:45,740 --> 01:23:49,610
"Many become one" can just be their way of saying "Some assembly required".

896
01:23:49,750 --> 01:23:53,150
Why hand it out to us in pieces? Why not just give it all over?

897
01:23:53,150 --> 01:23:55,330
Well, what better way to force us to work together for once?

898
01:23:56,750 --> 01:23:57,950
Even if I did believe you,

899
01:23:57,950 --> 01:24:00,330
how in the world are you gonna get anybody else to play along,

900
01:24:00,470 --> 01:24:01,730
or give up their data?

901
01:24:03,000 --> 01:24:04,340
We offer ours in return.

902
01:24:05,760 --> 01:24:06,590
Yeah?

903
01:24:07,090 --> 01:24:09,450
What, trade? It's a non-zero-sum game.

904
01:24:12,650 --> 01:24:14,180
"Non-zero-sum game".

905
01:24:16,100 --> 01:24:18,920
That's it. Yeah, thanks.

906
01:24:26,500 --> 01:24:29,200
Nine of the landing sites have gone total comms blackout.

907
01:24:30,110 --> 01:24:32,110
Only way to reach them is to physically drive there

908
01:24:32,130 --> 01:24:33,970
and yell at the border guards, which we're doing,

909
01:24:33,980 --> 01:24:35,210
but it won't be fast enough.

910
01:24:35,230 --> 01:24:37,770
There's got to be a way... To get the message to them.

911
01:24:37,780 --> 01:24:40,740
To our allies maybe. But at this stage, it's too little too late.

912
01:24:40,740 --> 01:24:43,930
What we need is to get all the other nations online

913
01:24:43,930 --> 01:24:47,570
before one starts a global war, and there's no way for us to reach them.

914
01:24:47,830 --> 01:24:50,000
Wait. Hold on a second. There is.

915
01:24:51,570 --> 01:24:52,550
It's right above us.

916
01:24:54,090 --> 01:24:55,570
That's problematic for us right now.

917
01:24:56,300 --> 01:24:58,650
The Pentagon's convinced our Shell will retaliate.

918
01:24:59,130 --> 01:25:01,730
My guess is they'll order us to evacuate within the hour.

919
01:25:02,790 --> 01:25:04,230
Look, they are not our enemy.

920
01:25:04,270 --> 01:25:06,020
They've made no act of aggression towards us. Just...

921
01:25:06,090 --> 01:25:08,030
Maybe this is their way of being aggressive.

922
01:25:08,130 --> 01:25:11,080
That's not the question. Oh, what is the question?

923
01:25:12,180 --> 01:25:15,070
How do we get you... back in that room when it's half a mile straight up?

924
01:25:15,810 --> 01:25:17,390
I think our work here is done.

925
01:25:18,510 --> 01:25:20,360
It's in the hands of our superiors now.

926
01:25:41,110 --> 01:25:42,530
What the hell is she doing?

927
01:26:36,440 --> 01:26:39,450
No. God. Oh, God. No.

928
01:28:59,910 --> 01:29:00,850
Costello?

929
01:29:04,130 --> 01:29:05,230
Where is Abbott?

930
01:29:15,200 --> 01:29:18,450
"Abbott is death process"

931
01:29:35,440 --> 01:29:36,430
I'm sorry.

932
01:29:39,320 --> 01:29:40,350
We're sorry.

933
01:29:45,060 --> 01:29:46,080
I need you to...

934
01:29:48,010 --> 01:29:51,180
I need you to send a message... to the other sites.

935
01:29:57,700 --> 01:30:00,900
"Louise has weapon"

936
01:30:08,850 --> 01:30:10,740
"Use weapon"

937
01:30:10,790 --> 01:30:13,880
I don't... I don't understand.

938
01:30:14,850 --> 01:30:17,610
What... is your purpose here?

939
01:30:24,950 --> 01:30:29,410
"We help humanity"

940
01:30:33,350 --> 01:30:37,710
"In three thousand years ..."

941
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:42,550
"... we need humanity help"

942
01:30:44,970 --> 01:30:46,330
How can you know the future?

943
01:31:03,930 --> 01:31:04,990
I don't...

944
01:31:07,030 --> 01:31:10,290
I don't understand. Who is this child?

945
01:31:16,350 --> 01:31:19,150
The show is called "Mommy and Daddy Talk to Animals."

946
01:31:31,700 --> 01:31:35,250
"Louise sees future"

947
01:31:45,400 --> 01:31:49,250
"Weapon opens time"

948
01:31:53,890 --> 01:31:56,850
Wait... No! Wait!

949
01:32:46,560 --> 01:32:47,960
Dr. Banks! Louise!

950
01:32:47,980 --> 01:32:48,950
Are you all right?

951
01:32:51,960 --> 01:32:54,270
Hey. You all right? Yeah.

952
01:32:54,500 --> 01:32:56,490
Here, come on. I'm fine. What happened?

953
01:32:56,490 --> 01:32:58,290
Tried to figure it out. This is too big.

954
01:32:58,330 --> 01:33:00,690
Doesn't matter now. We have orders to evacuate.

955
01:33:01,030 --> 01:33:03,770
Why? Russia and Sudan are following China.

956
01:33:07,500 --> 01:33:08,830
I don't understand why the ...?

957
01:33:08,860 --> 01:33:10,050
Help me, Mama.

958
01:33:10,970 --> 01:33:11,950
Louise?

959
01:33:12,150 --> 01:33:13,760
Oh, my God. Wow!

960
01:33:13,770 --> 01:33:14,560
Mom.

961
01:33:17,330 --> 01:33:18,250
Mama!

962
01:33:21,400 --> 01:33:22,390
Sorry, honey.

963
01:33:26,390 --> 01:33:28,120
What day is it? Do you know, baby?

964
01:33:28,730 --> 01:33:29,650
Sunday.

965
01:33:35,810 --> 01:33:37,870
Are you gonna leave me like Daddy did?

966
01:33:38,990 --> 01:33:42,070
Oh, Hannah, honey, your daddy didn't leave you.

967
01:33:42,730 --> 01:33:44,450
You're gonna see him... this weekend.

968
01:33:46,100 --> 01:33:48,240
He doesn't look at me the same way anymore.

969
01:33:57,190 --> 01:33:58,200
That's my fault.

970
01:34:01,210 --> 01:34:03,760
I told him something that he wasn't ready to hear.

971
01:34:06,150 --> 01:34:06,940
What?

972
01:34:09,570 --> 01:34:10,570
Well...

973
01:34:11,650 --> 01:34:12,890
Believe it or not,

974
01:34:14,100 --> 01:34:16,170
I know something that's going to happen.

975
01:34:18,880 --> 01:34:21,070
I can't explain how I know. I just do.

976
01:34:23,050 --> 01:34:25,710
And when I told your daddy, he got really mad.

977
01:34:28,060 --> 01:34:29,670
And he said I made the wrong choice.

978
01:34:33,150 --> 01:34:35,610
What? What's going to happen?

979
01:34:38,870 --> 01:34:40,210
It has to do with um...

980
01:34:40,750 --> 01:34:42,590
a really rare disease.

981
01:34:45,930 --> 01:34:47,330
And it's unstoppable.

982
01:34:49,910 --> 01:34:51,190
Kind of like you are.

983
01:34:52,410 --> 01:34:53,530
Your swimming

984
01:34:54,910 --> 01:34:58,470
and your poetry... and all the other amazing things that you share with the world.

985
01:34:59,630 --> 01:35:03,190
I am unstoppable? Yeah.

986
01:35:20,450 --> 01:35:21,570
I got you.

987
01:35:23,510 --> 01:35:24,530
Louise?

988
01:35:25,720 --> 01:35:26,650
Louise.

989
01:35:28,560 --> 01:35:30,890
I just realized why my husband left me.

990
01:35:31,360 --> 01:35:32,790
My husband left me.

991
01:35:32,830 --> 01:35:33,910
You were married?

992
01:35:34,590 --> 01:35:37,070
Come on. Let's get out of here.

993
01:36:11,710 --> 01:36:13,490
Mama? Yeah?

994
01:36:14,650 --> 01:36:16,250
Why is my name Hannah?

995
01:36:17,400 --> 01:36:18,800
Yeah, got it right here.

996
01:36:19,050 --> 01:36:20,550
Get those people back, please.

997
01:36:21,830 --> 01:36:24,550
Well... Your name is very special

998
01:36:24,810 --> 01:36:26,710
because it is a palindrome.

999
01:36:26,950 --> 01:36:30,350
It reads the same forward and backward.

1000
01:36:30,770 --> 01:36:32,580
All right, guys, give me a hand here.

1001
01:36:32,780 --> 01:36:35,810
Yes, sir. That goes in the bag.

1002
01:36:39,800 --> 01:36:40,500
Ready to go!

1003
01:36:49,800 --> 01:36:52,370
Civilian contractors must have their authorization badges

1004
01:36:52,370 --> 01:36:54,370
and passkeys when checking...

1005
01:36:54,910 --> 01:36:57,030
"The Universal Language"

1006
01:37:00,970 --> 01:37:02,700
Evacuation underway.

1007
01:37:05,810 --> 01:37:07,250
"To Hannah"

1008
01:37:07,250 --> 01:37:08,030
Hey!

1009
01:37:08,870 --> 01:37:10,300
Look. We're done here!

1010
01:37:10,450 --> 01:37:12,430
Let's go. We're taking this with us.

1011
01:37:17,760 --> 01:37:20,860
"The Universal Language" by Louise Banks "Translating Hetapods"

1012
01:37:37,330 --> 01:37:38,510
I can read it.

1013
01:37:42,960 --> 01:37:44,650
I know what it is. What?

1014
01:37:44,870 --> 01:37:46,910
It's not a weapon, it's a gift.

1015
01:37:47,870 --> 01:37:49,650
The weapon is their language.

1016
01:37:49,670 --> 01:37:52,210
They gave it all to us. Do you understand what that means?

1017
01:37:52,210 --> 01:37:54,450
So we can learn Heptapod, if we survive?

1018
01:37:54,590 --> 01:37:57,310
If you learn it... when you really learn it,

1019
01:37:57,720 --> 01:38:00,190
you begin to perceive time the way that they do.

1020
01:38:00,490 --> 01:38:02,510
So... so you can see what's to come.

1021
01:38:02,990 --> 01:38:05,350
But time, it... it isn't the same for them.

1022
01:38:05,650 --> 01:38:07,350
It's non-linear. Look...

1023
01:38:07,950 --> 01:38:10,170
We did our best, but it wasn't enough.

1024
01:38:11,670 --> 01:38:14,870
The captain will load you up. You're lifting off in 5 minutes.

1025
01:38:15,350 --> 01:38:18,510
Ian, Louise, it was an honor to work with you.

1026
01:38:19,790 --> 01:38:20,710
Good luck.

1027
01:38:24,560 --> 01:38:25,710
Hey, Colonel!

1028
01:38:33,050 --> 01:38:34,370
I'm gonna find out where we're going.

1029
01:38:42,930 --> 01:38:44,710
Wake up, Mommy.

1030
01:39:20,610 --> 01:39:21,910
Dr. Banks.

1031
01:39:23,480 --> 01:39:24,470
A pleasure.

1032
01:39:25,210 --> 01:39:28,220
General Shang, the pleasure is mine, really.

1033
01:39:29,070 --> 01:39:30,450
Your president said

1034
01:39:31,180 --> 01:39:34,310
he was honor to host me at the... the celebration.

1035
01:39:34,550 --> 01:39:36,210
Yes. But I confess,

1036
01:39:37,420 --> 01:39:40,000
the only reason why I'm here is to...

1037
01:39:41,430 --> 01:39:42,880
meet you in person.

1038
01:39:44,450 --> 01:39:46,710
Me? Well, I'm flattered. Thank you.

1039
01:39:47,980 --> 01:39:52,070
Now, 18 months ago, you did something remarkable.

1040
01:39:53,000 --> 01:39:56,380
Something not even my superior has done.

1041
01:39:58,430 --> 01:40:01,460
What's that? You changed my mind.

1042
01:40:04,070 --> 01:40:07,500
You are the reason... for this unification.

1043
01:40:08,700 --> 01:40:11,960
All because you reached out to me at my private number.

1044
01:40:14,750 --> 01:40:18,200
Your private number. General I... I don't know your private number...

1045
01:40:25,510 --> 01:40:26,580
Now you know.

1046
01:40:29,490 --> 01:40:32,720
I do not claim to know how your mind works, but...

1047
01:40:33,530 --> 01:40:36,820
I believe it was important for you to see that.

1048
01:40:38,610 --> 01:40:40,160
I called you, didn't I?

1049
01:40:41,510 --> 01:40:42,510
Yes, you did.

1050
01:40:55,230 --> 01:40:56,410
Louise...

1051
01:41:12,550 --> 01:41:14,360
All right, let's shut down the system.

1052
01:41:14,830 --> 01:41:18,500
Sir... there's a sat-line here dialing China.

1053
01:41:21,240 --> 01:41:22,790
Here? What do you mean "here"?

1054
01:41:25,080 --> 01:41:26,450
Come on, come on.

1055
01:41:27,910 --> 01:41:29,040
Whose phone is it?

1056
01:41:33,810 --> 01:41:34,930
It's your phone, sir.

1057
01:41:42,350 --> 01:41:43,770
Search base camp now.

1058
01:41:44,260 --> 01:41:45,910
Find out who's using that phone.

1059
01:41:46,490 --> 01:41:48,330
Hold on to those coordinates. Yes, sir.

1060
01:41:49,080 --> 01:41:51,440
Come on... What'd I say?

1061
01:41:52,480 --> 01:41:53,780
What do I say?

1062
01:42:04,750 --> 01:42:05,610
Come on.

1063
01:42:07,430 --> 01:42:09,970
I will never... forget what you said.

1064
01:42:13,690 --> 01:42:15,490
Hello?... Who are you?

1065
01:42:20,860 --> 01:42:23,760
You told me my wife's dying words.

1066
01:42:25,330 --> 01:42:26,370
General...

1067
01:42:29,610 --> 01:42:32,460
I'm from the American site, general.

1068
01:42:32,470 --> 01:42:34,290
Your wife told me in my dream...

1069
01:42:34,750 --> 01:42:40,050
...wife's last wish, "You should be dependent on the courage and philanthropism ..." She said that you should...

1070
01:42:41,550 --> 01:42:42,960
Found the source of the phone call.

1071
01:42:42,980 --> 01:42:44,940
It's in the clean room. Waiting for instructions.

1072
01:42:44,940 --> 01:42:47,780
...by right of your courage to help save the world.

1073
01:42:47,790 --> 01:42:48,770
What are you doing?

1074
01:42:50,270 --> 01:42:52,080
What are you doing? Changing someone's mind.

1075
01:42:52,220 --> 01:42:53,620
Can you buy me 20 seconds?

1076
01:42:53,620 --> 01:42:55,060
We don't have time for this... No, trust me!

1077
01:42:55,060 --> 01:42:57,010
Buy me 20 seconds. Do you trust me?... Right now.

1078
01:42:57,010 --> 01:42:58,050
Okay! Yeah. You trust me?

1079
01:42:58,050 --> 01:42:59,760
General, she also said...

1080
01:43:01,270 --> 01:43:02,290
Dr. Banks!

1081
01:43:03,110 --> 01:43:04,770
Drop the phone now or we shoot!

1082
01:43:04,770 --> 01:43:06,930
"In war there are no winners,"

1083
01:43:07,900 --> 01:43:10,410
Drop it! Yeah. I'm sorry!

1084
01:43:10,470 --> 01:43:12,960
"But only widows and orphans."

1085
01:43:12,970 --> 01:43:14,870
You're permitting an act of treason!

1086
01:43:20,630 --> 01:43:21,460
Yes!

1087
01:43:21,470 --> 01:43:22,910
Drop it! It's done.

1088
01:43:23,170 --> 01:43:24,170
I'm done.

1089
01:43:30,330 --> 01:43:31,340
Thank you.

1090
01:43:33,530 --> 01:43:34,650
Thank you.

1091
01:43:38,970 --> 01:43:44,320
...the communications blackout from all twelve landing sites continues this evening. The two questions...

1092
01:43:44,320 --> 01:43:46,760
Hold on... We are just hearing.

1093
01:43:46,760 --> 01:43:50,300
And I'm being told we're going to cut this report to tell you breaking news.

1094
01:43:50,300 --> 01:43:52,610
Breaking now, China has called an emergency press conference.

1095
01:43:52,610 --> 01:43:55,860
General Shang, Commander-in-chief of the People's Liberation Army,

1096
01:43:55,910 --> 01:44:00,110
has announced in an emergency press conference that China is standing down.

1097
01:44:00,110 --> 01:44:03,030
China is stating that all the intelligence they have received

1098
01:44:03,040 --> 01:44:06,130
will be shared immediately with all the other landing sites...

1099
01:44:06,130 --> 01:44:09,080
Scientists around the world are sifting through information received from the UK, Japan, Sierra Leone...

1100
01:44:09,080 --> 01:44:10,930
Wait, the Russian armed forces are now

1101
01:44:10,930 --> 01:44:15,440
revealing the information they've acquired from both of their landing sites, and...

1102
01:44:15,440 --> 01:44:19,200
...have declared the Black Sea a demilitarized zone... one of the twelve pieces of this puzzle that's being slowly put together.

1103
01:46:08,460 --> 01:46:10,890
So... Hannah.

1104
01:46:12,490 --> 01:46:14,530
This is where your story begins.

1105
01:46:17,100 --> 01:46:18,500
The day that they departed.

1106
01:46:23,130 --> 01:46:24,450
You all right?

1107
01:46:27,930 --> 01:46:29,790
Despite knowing the journey...

1108
01:46:30,670 --> 01:46:32,010
and where it leads.

1109
01:46:35,450 --> 01:46:36,780
I embrace it.

1110
01:46:39,610 --> 01:46:42,370
And I welcome every moment of it.

1111
01:46:42,990 --> 01:46:44,200
Ooh! Ah! Ooh!

1112
01:46:57,610 --> 01:47:01,960
H-A-N-N-A-H.

1113
01:47:15,900 --> 01:47:17,160
Now backward.

1114
01:47:17,160 --> 01:47:21,310
H-A-N-N-A-H.

1115
01:47:21,320 --> 01:47:22,200
Hannah.

1116
01:47:22,730 --> 01:47:23,660
You ready, baby?

1117
01:47:25,550 --> 01:47:26,590
Okay.

1118
01:47:27,370 --> 01:47:28,300
Hi.

1119
01:47:29,970 --> 01:47:33,090
-You good?
-All right. See ya.

1120
01:47:35,290 --> 01:47:36,330
Daddy!

1121
01:47:45,870 --> 01:47:49,000
You okay? Daddy's gonna roll over you.

1122
01:47:51,270 --> 01:47:52,640
All right, you ready?

1123
01:47:57,480 --> 01:47:59,110
Oh, guess what? Star stuff.

1124
01:48:01,590 --> 01:48:03,360
Ian. Yeah.

1125
01:48:04,660 --> 01:48:07,460
If you could see your whole life from start to finish,

1126
01:48:10,050 --> 01:48:11,560
would you change things?

1127
01:48:18,050 --> 01:48:19,290
Maybe I...

1128
01:48:20,420 --> 01:48:23,180
I'd say what I feel more often. I... I don't know.

1129
01:48:39,270 --> 01:48:41,650
You know, I've had my head tilted up to the stars

1130
01:48:41,650 --> 01:48:43,240
for as long as I can remember.

1131
01:48:46,080 --> 01:48:47,810
You know what surprised me the most?

1132
01:48:50,530 --> 01:48:51,870
It wasn't meeting them.

1133
01:48:57,350 --> 01:48:58,550
It was meeting you.

1134
01:49:39,770 --> 01:49:42,130
I forgot how good it felt to be held by you.

1135
01:49:52,400 --> 01:49:53,860
You wanna make a baby?

1136
01:50:28,950 --> 01:50:31,550
Yes... Yeah!

1137
01:50:32,305 --> 01:51:32,933
