Skylines (2020) Movie Script

1
GRANT: The first thing you
need to know about Rose is, uh...
she ain't exactly human.
Her parents were, at
least until the lights fell.
[RUMBLING]
From there, it gets complicated.
Jarrod?
GRANT: They harvested
her father's mind.
They couldn't erase his will.
[ELAINE YELLS]
He sacrificed his
life to save Rose.
But there was another.
A father in search of his son...
- [BABY ROSE CRYING]
- took her in as his own.
Something in that blue light
made little Rose grow fast.
Too fast.
Blood transfusions
helped slow it down.
But that's not
all she inherited.
[WHIZZING]
Her powers freed
every pilot on Earth,
reuniting families...
and creating new ones.
Over the next 10 years, Rose
and her brother turned the tide...
- Ready?
- [TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
GRANT: until the Harvesters unveiled
their ultimate weapon, the Armada Vessel.
Said to harvest all life on
our planet with a single blast.
We had one
chance left to stop it.
The Red Fleet cleared a
path and Rose had her shot.
But she froze.
No one knows why.
But it was just long enough
for everything to fall apart.
One of our ships got
caught in the crossfire.
To save all mankind,
she had to kill thousands
of her own men.
The price of victory was
too much for her to bear.
Rose turned her back on it all.
It's been five years.
We haven't seen
the Harvesters since.
What about Rose? Where is she?
LEON: Excuse me, love.
I'm looking for Rose
Corley. Have you seen her?
Popular question these days.
Evening, ladies and gentlemen.
Sorry to break up story time.
I'm looking for this
lady, Rose Corley.
Have you seen her?
Hiya, what's your name?
- Kate.
- Hi, Kate.
You haven't seen
her around, have you?
She might look a little
bit older. Maybe a lot.
- No, not lately...
- Not ever.
I wasn't talking
to you, Pope ye.
So which is it, not
lately or not ever?
You know, reward's
up to a million.
More than enough to
get out of this shithole.
Find yourself a nice
little gated complex.
Just keep your eye
open, eh, old man?
Asshole.
LEON: Anyone seen
Rose Corley, this girl here?
- Kev, have you checked these guys?
- KEV: On it.
LEON: All right, mate.
I'm looking for this girl.
No?
Rose Corley?
- Caught anything?
- SOLDIER: No, nothing.
[ROCK SONG PLAYING]
I don't know what
We're supposed to be
But I know we
lost it Along the way
To something better
Something so much
More than pleasure
That we seek,
So blind inside...
[PILOTS GROWLING]
ROSE: I just need a
refill, Doc. Then I'm gone.
Jesus, what the hell. You
couldn't have chosen a worse time.
You owe me one.
Get in here.
[MAN COUGHING]
- [PILOTS GROWLING]
- ROSE: You weren't kidding.
DR. MAL: Nasty bug going around.
Dublin's already
been quarantined.
I know it's only a band-aid, but
the hyper-oxygenated blood seems
to have slowed down
your cell replication.
Except, this shit
keeps getting worse.
Your firing hand.
Concentrated exposure increases
the effects of ageing, I'm afraid.
I can always replace
it, like Huana's.
How is the old Chief holding up?
He's not doing too well, either.
His transplants got
infected by this new virus.
Had to replace his leg
again, poor old bugger.
Well, I'd like to keep
my cuticles if I can.
Don't knock it till
you try it, young lady.
Sure, Doc.
Let me show you something.
Ray, here, was our first case.
[LOW GRUNTING]
What are the symptoms?
Thyroxine levels are way up.
And the bodies are eating
themselves from the inside.
I'm working on an anti-viral, but
it's unlike anything I've seen before.
[OBJECTS CLATTERING]
What you doing that for?
Where's the girl? Where is she?
Backdoor.
Relax!
Come for your monthly check-up?
- [GUNS COCK]
- SOLDIER: Stand down.
[GRUNTING]
Freeze!
We gotta stop meeting like this.
- Rose Corley...
- [GROWLING]
ROSE: Ray, stop!
Don't shoot!
Rose Corley...
you're under arrest.
- DR. MAL: Rose?
- Out the way, or I'll arrest you too.
What charges? What
the hell is going on here?
Whole city's under quarantine.
[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]
MAN: [OVER RADIO] We have another
blue shell contained in the infirmary.
We've locked down
the whole sector.
[UPBEAT ELECTRONIC
MUSIC PLAYING]
Did he find you?
Your dad.
You don't think I know
who Mark Corley is?
You don't.
Well, I know he's the famous
founder of the Resistance.
And I know he'd probably still be
alive today... if you hadn't run away.
[INDUSTRIAL ELECTRONIC
MUSIC PLAYING]
Let's go.
Welcome back.
Home sweet home.
[DOOR OPENING]
[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]
Right here.
Gotta hand it to you, Corporal.
Job well done. Drinks are on me.
Don't forget your
wallet this time, huh?
OWENS: I never forget anything.
LEON: Except when
it's your turn to pay.
- Careful.
- OWENS: I don't take orders from you.
And you are?
Colonel Owens.
But save your salute. You don't
have any rank here anymore.
RADFORD: You're
our best weapon, Rose.
Do you really think I would
let you just walk away?
I thought the war was over.
I won it for you at
too high of a price.
There is only one thing
harder than winning a war.
[ROSE SIGHS]
Keeping the peace.
- Wise beyond your years.
- [DOOR OPENS]
You remember Violet.
[VIOLET SPEAKS ALIEN]
Yeah. 'Sup, Vi?
Nice ink.
[SPEAKS ALIEN]
This is approximately every
human being alive on Earth.
And this is every freed Pilot.
For the past five years we've
coexisted, more or less, peacefully.
Until now.
The Pilots are dying, Rose.
What you saw today
is only the beginning.
Soon they'll all revert
to their base biology,
triggering a brutal
hunt for resources,
which means they'll go back
to ripping our bloody brains out.
How do you know that for sure?
A few isolated cases
doesn't make a pandemic.
We've already lost
thousands in Dublin.
If we don't find a solution in the
next 72 hours, London will be next.
However, we may have one.
The Armada?
Harvester ships have resilient
core drives which repair their tech.
But every one of them we've converted
put together won't be able to stem
the tide of three billion
Pilots. The Armadas can.
Its core drive is
powerful enough
to restore every Pilot
on Earth for 100 years.
But I destroyed
it five years ago.
Take a closer look.
Its core warped out.
Right before impact.
And you know where it went?
We cracked their entire
navigational database.
All the way back to this world.
We're calling it Cobalt One.
Every question we've ever
asked... Where are they from?
Who are they? What
do they really want?
All the answers lie on
that shiny, blue rock.
The only way that we can
defend our hard-fought peace,
ensure a secure
future for all humanity,
hybrid or otherwise,
is to get there.
We're embarking on the first
manned mission to Cobalt One,
and I want you to join us.
I've assembled a team. The
very best our planet has to offer.
You already know
Leon. Our hunter.
- As of now, he is your personal escort.
- [GRUNTING]
Zhi, here, cracked
their navigation network.
Thanks to him, we can travel
five light years in a single day.
Colonel Owens. Former
Navy Seals. Sniper by trade.
- He can be a bit of a prick sometimes.
- [GUNSHOTS]
But there isn't anyone I'd
rather have covering my six.
ROSE: Who's she?
RADFORD: Alexi ran a
counterstrike unit in Eastern Europe,
specializing in target
tracking, search and destroy.
She could find a needle
in the proverbial haystack.
And execute it with
extreme prejudice.
ROSE: So, what exactly
is my role in all this?
We need your powers
to detach the core drive.
[CHUCKLING] Radford,
I've never done that before.
Well, it's the first manned
mission to an alien planet.
There's a lot of
new for everybody.
But you'll have all the
blood transfusions you need
to keep your powers
at full strength.
What, are you keeping
them separate now?
They seem to prefer it this way.
But we have found
you a roommate.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
Trent?
I'll leave you to it.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
[YELLS] Nice to see you, too.
Jesus. It smells like
a Pilot brothel in here.
Yeah? Well, I haven't
showered in, like, a year.
What's your excuse?
What are you working on?
Need a hand?
I brought thumbs.
ROSE: You name
it, I've been there.
Yeah, L.A. was
all right, I guess.
Well, you could have come.
Don't act like you
weren't invited.
Reminded me of
you and dad, actually.
Trent, I looked
everywhere for him, but I...
I can't. It's my
fault he's missing.
I can't just give up on him.
You work for the people
who are hunting me.
I can't just stop in and say hi.
Shit. I'm sorry.
I can't even imagine
what this is all like for you.
And you actually think Redford's
mission is going to work?
[SIGHS] It's not that
I don't wanna help...
I don't know if I can anymore.
Every time I use
this... I pay the price.
Or worse, someone else does.
Maybe you're just
better off without me.
Why are they always wet?
MARK: Rose, always
knew. It's Rose.
'Cause I made a promise.
You know what that means?
That means, that no matter what happens,
I'm not going to let anything hurt you.
Promise?
Yeah, kid. I promise.
[SCREAM ECHOING]
[DOOR OPENING]
[BANGING ON DOOR]
- Morning, sleeping beauty.
- [SIGHS WEARILY]
- General wants to see you.
- Why? Wh... Where's Trent?
He's with the others.
Waiting for you.
- [PILOT'S FOOTSTEPS THUDDING]
- Hmm. [SIGHS]
Let them. I gotta shower.
[STUTTERS]
- Leave.
- I'll be outside, then.
ROSE: Okay.
So are you supposed
to just follow me around?
That's what I volunteered for.
Wow. Mom and dad must be proud.
Ah, can't all be as
special as you, can we?
[BEEPS]
What happened
to all the Tankers?
OWENS: Need to conserve power.
Can't afford to carry
all that extra weight.
ROSE: Still, you never know when
a 40 foot tall bulldozer
could come in handy.
The General wants to
brief you on the bridge.
Just keeps getting
better and better.
For those of you haven't served with
her, or have been living under a rock,
Rose, here, had been blessed with
the ability to interact with alien tech,
counteract their programming.
And having faced
the Armada already,
she has an intimate
knowledge of our target.
So, let's get her up to speed with
the mission as quickly as possible. Zhi?
First things first. How many times
have you actually travelled by wormhole?
Well, we've travelled
to the Moon. Mars...
That's a walk in the
park compared to this.
No one said it would
be easy, honey.
Well, no one's
talking to you, honey.
What about probes?
Any successful unmanned
missions to Cobalt?
No. We've sent them,
but it'll be five years before
we receive a signal back...
So, aside from our nav
holograms, we have no real intel
what this planet's
actually like?
As we exit the wormhole,
we'll launch a satellite probe
and do a full planetary scan.
Mmm. And what happens
when we run into Harvesters?
We blend in.
We change the ship
back to its old blue color.
Along with our Pilots.
Trent and Violet will pose as
a derelict ship returning home.
- [ROARING]
- [SIGHS] Okay, relax.
Once we touch down, your team
will infiltrate the Armada Vessel,
under the radar, locate and
commandeer the core drive and then...
get the hell out of dodge.
That's it?
That's all you got?
- Oh, so you have half a plan.
- Yeah, at best.
But it's a really
good half, though.
We've simulated this mission,
roughly, 500 times with 90%...
Simulations are nothing
compared to the real thing.
That's why we need you.
I can't take on
an entire planet.
This is no war. This is a heist.
LEON: We're not going
there for any hero bullshit.
Let them harvest another
10 planets, for all we care.
We go there for one
thing and one thing only.
-That drive.
You're the only one who
has the power to retrieve it.
RADFORD: Enough.
Colonel, give us the bridge.
Sir. Let's go.
ROSE: [SIGHS] There
has to be an easier way.
Rose.
You are the only way.
I know this is far from ideal,
but we face extermination.
We all have to push
beyond our limits.
And what if I can't?
You saved us all before.
And when the time comes,
I know that you
will make us proud.
[SPEAKING ALIEN]
When do you embark?
As soon as you say yes.
So what the hell
are we waiting for?
[WHIRRING]
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]
Wormhole travel is
extremely dangerous.
From the pressure, to the
revolving walls, its safest if you stay
in here at the
center of the ship.
Or what?
Get too close to the outer
walls, you become part of them.
OWENS: [CLICKING
BUTTONS] Permanently.
Doors open in 24 hours.
So, try to get some rest.
And Rose, as long as we get the job
done, you and I will get along just fine.
[SIGHS]
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
[WHIRRING]
Oh, hell, no.
ROSE: [POUNDING ON DOOR] Owens!
Yeah, we're on lockdown for 24
hours, so I'm afraid you're stuck with me.
This is a huge mistake.
[GRUNTS]
[WHIZZING]
[SPEAKING ALIEN]
- You all right?
- Mmm, no. No, not really.
Yeah, well, this ain't exactly
my idea of a good time either.
Wait... Were you
watching me change?
What? No, I was having a piss.
Yeah. Yep.
[SIGHS]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Soldiers said to
leave before dark.
Well, better get going.
I'm not leaving without you.
[SIGHS]
I've spent 10 years hiding
underground, living in shit.
I'd just as soon see the end
up here, sun shining on my face.
Thought I'd told you to quit.
Hey, Doc. They
kick you out as well?
[SIGHS] Managed to sneak
Huana, here, in past quarantine. Just.
Why? Is he sick or something?
[GROANS]
Get him inside. Come on.
[WHIZZING]
LEON: So what's
with all the blood?
Some kinda Dracula or...
Oh, no, wait.
Vampires don't age.
Whereas you're more
of a... Like a kid alien
in Tom Hanks' body,
kinda deal, right?
What, you've never
seen Big? It's a classic.
I have no idea what
you're talking about.
You don't remember what it
was like before they came?
[SMACKS LIPS] I was
born on a spaceship, genius.
Oh, yeah. Right. Of
course. [COCKS GUN]
How old were you when they came?
Um...
I was in high school.
The night before, my mum caught
me and my sister smoking a joint.
- [CHUCKLES]
- Grounded us for life.
I don't know how you all survived
that many years as teenagers.
That was the one time in my life I
was glad I grew up freakishly fast.
[CHUCKLES]
I'd give anything to go back.
Never even saw my mum again.
My sister, Izzy, and me, we
ended up in a train station.
Worked our way to the
underground like most folks.
Not much food.
Even less info.
I just remember the fear.
Being scared.
Thinking they'd find us any day.
Until my sister told
me about this strange
little girl with
glowing red eyes.
The one who could fight back.
And your sister? Where's she?
She's, uh...
She was a bit older than me,
so, when the Resistance
started, she signed up.
She wasn't anyone
special. Not like you.
But she did her part.
Paid the price.
As far as I'm concerned, they don't
come any more special than that.
[WHIZZING]
- How was the honeymoon suite?
- [CHUCKLES]
Hey, did you get any sleep?
None at all.
[VIOLET SPEAKING ALIEN]
I thought you might
like to see this.
We're just coming into orbit.
Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to Cobalt One.
[VIOLET SPEAKING ALIEN]
Zhi, Alexi, initiate
the drone launch.
Let's get some hard
data on this place.
The rest of us head
for the subdeck.
Pilots only on the
bridge from now on.
Hey.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
Don't die, okay?
[INTENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
- [TURBULENT ROCKING]
- You might wanna strap in.
ALEXI: Launching drone.
[VIOLET SPEAKING ALIEN]
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
ALEXI: We've got incoming.
We're not picking anything up.
Whatever it is, it's
big and closing fast.
- [VIOLET SPEAKING]
- [TRENT SPEAKING]
- Status?
- Heavy damage to our central system.
Trent, have you got
eyes on the ship?
- [TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
- Is it pursuing us?
What the hell is going on?
Wait... No one's
driving the ship.
It's just stuck in orbit.
[TRENT SPEAKING]
[RUMBLING]
[VIOLET SPEAKING ALIEN]
RADFORD: The core
drive is stalling out.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
We have to land.
Focus, people.
[VIOLET SPEAKING ALIEN]
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
Brace for impact.
LEON: Shit.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYING]
[RUMBLING]
[HEAVY BREATHING]
[COUGHING]
Everyone all right?
- Yeah.
- ZHI: Yeah.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
[VIOLET SPEAKING ALIEN]
Core drive is dead on arrival.
Backup generators will power
our comms for the next 24 hours.
After that...
Half a plan.
At best.
Only one way to get home
now. The Armada's core drive.
Alexi, what's our position?
ALEXI: Ten clicks from the
Armada. No signs of life yet.
Surface gravity is
slightly heavier than Earth.
Should take us
six hours round trip.
- Get your team ready, Colonel.
- Yes, sir.
Let's go. Come on!
We're up.
- [DISTANT GUNFIRE]
- [INDISTINCT CHATTER]
I've been working on a cure
since this bug showed up.
I just need a little more
time to test my serum.
So you can stop all of this?
Perhaps.
If I can save Huana,
there's a possibility
I can save them all.
[EXPLOSION]
They're attacking
the quarantine.
We have less
time than I thought.
How much more time do you need?
Hey, this is no
place for you, kid.
I know you have weapons, Grant.
Not enough for this.
We're in the middle of the
largest Pilot Sprawl on Earth.
There's no point in running.
If you can hold
them off till morning...
I might just have a shot.
What weapons are
we talking about?
Their bodies are armor-plated.
Aim for the eyes.
If they move, kill them.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
Are you guys serious
about these suits?
Trust me. You're gonna need it.
ALEXI: Stab first.
Questions later.
You got a license for those?
Wait... Is this...
Special mod. Custom
made by this big guy.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
[CHUCKLES]
Now you can fire on the go.
All right, let's lock
and load, Alpha Team.
ALEXI: It's going to be fine.
It's go time.
ZHI: Yeehaw.
Violet will remain here
and guard the bridge.
Zhi and I will monitor
you all from the subdeck.
Cobalt's atmosphere is
roughly analogous to their ships,
meaning we can breathe
here, but it's low on 02,
so you better pace
yourselves. But not too slow.
If you're not back in 12 hours,
London will be
wiped off the map.
So, no pressure.
So...
no pressure.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
Guess we're really
doing this, huh?
Death or glory, Corporal.
See you soon, Zhi.
[EXHALES] Please, I insist.
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING]
ZHI: All clear.
OWENS: How's our signal, Zhi?
Loud and clear, Alpha Team.
ALEXI: Still no signs of life.
Music to my ears.
Pretty trippy.
But not entirely unpleasant.
Keep the comms clear.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
[ECHOING YELL]
What is it?
[WEAPON POWERS UP]
[WEAPON POWERS DOWN]
Just a healthy fear of the dark.
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]
LEON: How can this
entire place be empty?
ALEXI: Maybe they left.
ROSE: Then why is
the Armada still here?
Perhaps you damaged
it more than we thought?
Well, if that's the case,
then how the hell are we
supposed to get home?
OWENS: How many times
do I have to remind everyone?
We're on a goddamn
stealth mission, here.
- So shut your...
- [SCREECHING]
LEON: Free to engage?
[WHISPERING]
Anything moves... burn it.
So much for your
stealth mission.
And what if...
nothing's moving?
No rush.
Just the end of the world.
[GUTTURAL BREATHING]
[DIGITAL BEEPING]
Nav points to that cavern.
Another three
clicks to the Armada.
All right.
Let's go.
Watch your backs.
[WATER DRIPPING]
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
[RADIO BUZZING]
How's our signal?
ZHI: [OVER RADIO]
Owens, there's interference.
- [SIGNAL GLITCHING]
- Damn.
[INTENSE MUSIC]
[SPEAKS ALIEN]
- Owens?
- Yeah?
ROSE: I think I know
why this place is empty.
It's a tomb.
Shit.
[RATTLING]
[DIGITAL BEEPING]
[RAPID BEEPING]
I've got movement.
North wall. Two signatures.
- [TRENT SPEAKS ALIEN]
- What?
What are you talking about?
Trent. Trent, no!
Trent, wait!
- Stay in formation!
- Where the hell is he going?
- I don't know.
- Well, what did he just say to you?
These aren't Harvesters.
[ALARM BEEPING]
Two signatures. South wall!
Whatever they are,
they're surrounding us.
Zhi, talk to me?
- [SIGNAL DISTORTING]
- Zhi! Damn.
[RUSTLING]
[CREATURES SNARLING]
Wait! You could hit Trent.
He should've stayed in
formation, God damn it!
Shit.
Move!
[WHISPERING] Christ's sake.
[WHISPERING] I'm
gonna kill you, Trent.
[RUSTLING]
You hit something...
What is it?
I don't know.
[ALL BREATHING HEAVILY]
[BEEPING]
What's going on, guys?
Some kind of camouflage.
ZHI: [DISTORTED] Alexi?
Zhi?
Go again, Zhi.
ZHI: [DISTORTED] What's up?
- ALEXI: Zhi?
- It's gone.
Where'd it go?
LEON: What do
you mean it's gone?
It's still alive. [PANTING]
Go back to backs.
Stay in formation.
[DIGITAL BEEPING]
We're cut off.
No visual, no comm.
What, everything?

We're gonna pick you up, okay?
Alexi, come on.
Now, you've got this.
[PANTING]
Tell Zhi I'll be
waiting for him.
- Wha...
- OWENS: We will.
We gotta go.
- No! Owens, we're not leaving her here.
- We gotta go.
- We're not leaving her here.
- You don't get to make that decision.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
[WHISPERING] Please.
Go.
[WHISPERING] Alexi, I'm sorry.
You're worth it.

[ROCKS RUMBLING]
- [MONITOR BEEPING]
- Something's happened to her.
RADFORD: Well, we don't know
what it is yet. It could be anything.
What about the drone?
Uh, we lost our comm
link to it in the crash.
[SNAPS FINGERS] But, I should be
able to reboot it from the launch bay.
Well, get on it.
[ROSE COUGHING]
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
[GRUNTS] Yeah. Yeah, I'm okay.
Thanks to you. You good?
[WHISPERING] Let's
go. Okay, come on.
Care to explain yourselves?
You wanna do this right now?
I have one dead solider,
a second who
disobeyed a direct order,
and a third who's either unable
or unwilling to do her goddamn job.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
LEON: Hey, shut it shell!
You're the one who ran off!
Hey, he was
trying to protect us.
Yeah, no thanks to you!
You had one job and
once again you froze up.
And a good soldier died.
She doesn't know, does she?
Know what?
His sister was on that
ship you destroyed.
Now I'm gonna ask
you this only once.
Can you do your job or not?
ROSE: Shit.
When was the last time
you really used your powers?
[SIGHS, SNIFFLES]
A month?
A year?
The Armada?
Ever since we've been
here, things have just been off.
Off? What do you mean off?
- Christ. If you can't do this...
- I know what's at stake, Owens. Okay?
And I'm not
afraid to die for it.
This...
gift...
has been killing
me my whole life.
Figured I got one last shot.
So let's make it count.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[SNARLS]

- DR. MAL: Elbows down and in.
- [GASPS]
I was never much of
a fan of these, either.
No choice without your cure.
We'll see.
I've injected half into Huana.
Now all we can do is wait.
You try.
- [INDISTINCT GRUNT]
- [GASPS]
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
Grant!
Grant!
- [GROWLING]
- [GRUNTS]
Get back!
- Hey! Over here!
- [ROARS]
Eat this!
[SNARLING]
Grant, no!
- [GROWLING]
- [GRUNTS]
[YELLS]
Doc! Come and get it!
[GRUNTS]
- [PILOT GRUNTING]
- [BREATHES HEAVILY]
Shit. I need a stronger dose.
[ROARS]
[THUDS]
[SOBBING] Grant! No, no, no.
Grant, Grant, Grant. Please, please.
Sun's on my face, ain't it?
[SOBBING]
- Let him go.
- [SOBS]
[WARBLING NEARBY]
We have to move. Now.
Get under.
[PILOTS GROWLING]
There she is.
The Armada Vessel.
Hey, where do you
think you're going?
Just give me a minute.
OWENS: Cover her.
LEON: What is it?
Looks human.
Maybe from one of our probes.
Scan it back at the ship.
- Leon, I... I... I can't.
- Just forget it. All right?
I can't.
Look, I wish I could
explain why it happened.
But...
I meant what I said
about your sister.
[SNARLING]
[GRUNTING]
[CREATURES SQUEALING]
Incoming!
[CREATURES SNARLING]
[SOFTLY] Shit.
- Run to that light shaft!
- [OWENS SHOUTS]
- Run, run.
- ROSE: Now, run!
Get into the light. Don't move.
Trust me.
Hurry, Trent!
[GROWLS]
They can't see through
the light... I think.
You think or you know?
I think.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
It's working.
[CHUCKLES] It's working.
Son of a bitch. It
must be sundown.
Well, that was short-lived.
[CREATURES SNARLING]
Lock and load, Corporal.
ROSE: Oh, shit. Oh, shit.
OWENS: Our eye in the sky.
Let's go! Run for it! Let's go.
ZHI: What are those things?
Pilots?
RADFORD: Maybe a new species.
A mutation.
Wipe them out.
[WHISPERS] That's for Alexi.
OWENS: Open the door.
[TRENT SPEAKS ALIEN]
Go. Go. Go. Go!
Go.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
Careful, Trent.
Looks like nobody's home.
If all the Pilots turned rabid,
then what the hell
happened to the Harvesters?
You think they got sick, too?
This way. Let's go.
OWENS: There it is.
[BUZZING]
[SPEAKING ALIEN]
Outstanding.
You're up.
Hey, big ugly.
If I'm...
If I'm gone, promise
me you'll finish this.
No matter what.
What the hell is going on?
[GROANS]
Rose?
You all right?
[ALL GROAN]
What the hell happened to her?
She went native. [GRUNTS]
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
Doesn't matter.
The core drive is down there.
Relax, Trent. Finding the drive gives
us the best chance of finding Rose.
And what if she tries
to stop us again, huh?
You made a promise. Remember?
[GRUNTS]
Go get her.
[GROWLING]
[SNARLS]
OWENS: They're off the grid.
I knew we couldn't trust them.
Well, we haven't exactly
been forthcoming, have we?
Stop. You're breaking my heart.
I'm just saying this is their
world. Let them do the dirty work.
No one's gonna get
out of this one clean, kid.
[GASPS]
[ROARING]

[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
[TRENT GROWLING]
[BREATH QUAVERING]
MARK: Rose.
I promise.
[YELLS]
All this time.
All the doubt.
All the fear.
It was you.
You know what? You're right.
I didn't come here
to destroy you.
But I will.
[GROWLS]
You okay?
Let's go.
[ROARS]
Rose?
LEON: Holy shit.
How did you do that?
I finally stopped
fighting my nature.
But you're feeling
okay now, right?
'Cause, you know, because, like,
I mean, y-y-you look, uh... great.
Where's the core drive?
It's right there.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
You hit like a girl.
You did it.
We did it.
Save the group hug
for later. Let's go!
Come on, move it.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
[DISTANT GROWL]
Cover us.
[SHUFFLING, SNARLING]
Time to get your hands dirty.
Payback's a bitch.
Come on.
[SCREECHING]
Wrong choice, Corporal.
Shit.
Trent! Get down!
ZHI: He blew the hatch!
RADFORD: Probably
hostiles at his back.
And the others?
Well, we can only
pray for them now.
But thank God he's
got the core drive.
Clear his path home.
[CREATURES GROWLING]
You knew...
[CREATURES SNARLING]
[YELLING]
Rose, I'm sor...
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
Don't even...
[TRENT GROANING]
[INDISTINCT SHOUTING]
Grant's dead. Your serum is a bust.
And we're completely surrounded.
What the hell are we gonna do?
We're gonna fight to the end.
Just like Grant did.
Now let's get to
Huana before they do.
Wait.
All right, go.
- Hey, ladies. What are you up to?
- Shh.
Quick!
[GRUNTING]
[YELLS]
Go!
- [PILOT GROWLING]
- [GRUNTING]
[GRUNTS]
So the serum actually works?
Trust me, I'm just as
surprised as you are.
Cover the entrance.
Get what we need.
This'll do.
Get the hell out of here.
[ROARING]
[GRUNTS]
[PANTING] No
respect for science.
How's he doing?
You don't look so
good either, Rose.
Please, just let me help you.
I know you need it.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
And Trent?
What did he inject him with?
All I know is that they
want that core drive.
And they're gonna do
everything they can to get it.
Why?
And don't you bullshit me.
It's some kind of weapon.
Powerful enough to wipe every
Pilot off the face of the Earth.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
Then why are you helping us?
'Cause, I knew...
I knew deep down...
why you froze up.
Why my sister died that day.
I knew that you couldn't destroy
them because they're a part of you.
And I hated you for that.
But that feeling, that
feeling's simple, it's... It's easy.
And now that I know
who you really are...
Now it's complicated.
Yes.
Yes, it is.
LEON: If we don't get
to the ship before Owens,
we're gonna be stranded here.
[TRENT SPEAKS ALIEN]
Yeah, what do you
want me to do? Fly?
LEON: Oh, can you?
I'm serious, Rose.
We've gotta pick up the pace,
otherwise we're gonna be...
Wait. You see that?
LEON: That's the
same as our ships.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
Don't move.
LEON: We'll just...
Just wait here for you.
You know, that sister of yours
really needs to work on
her communication skills.
- You're killing me.
- [TRENT GROWLS]
- [RATTLING]
- Shit.
Rose, we've got company!
Shit...
[CREATURES GROWLING]
I guess this is it, then.
Hey, come on! Come
back over here! Over here!
[YELLING]
Attagirl.
[LEON YELLING]
[EXHALES]
Not bad for a human.
Oh, finally she's impressed.
Got one in my size?
- ROSE: [WHISPERS] No...
- [TRENT GROWLING]
Hold tight in there, Trent.
- What about me?
- I'm coming.
This shit's exhausting.
That's exhausting? What,
do you wanna swap places?
ROSE: Hmm. Cheeky.
Whoa! Wow. Okay.
Whoo! Um, do you want me to...
Just hold on to something.
Okay... Sorry...
ROSE: Not anything.
You did good, soldier.
Hell, you did the impossible.
ZHI: What about the others?
Alexi?
Zhi, make sure this
man gets some rest.
I've got it from here.
LEON: Does this
thing go any faster?
Jesus.
ROSE: This wasn't a probe.
This was a bomb.
The shadow creatures...
Pilots back home.
Trent.
It's all connected.
They aren't just dying...
[GRUNTS] Payback's a bitch!
They've been poisoned.
Radford.
[WHISPERS] That son of a bitch.
Let's go get him.
Violet.
We need to install this now.
[VIOLET SPEAKS ALIEN]
Just need to scan
for any contamination.
I'm all right. I feel fine.
It's protocol, Owens.
[VIOLET SPEAKING ALIEN]
Take us to firing altitude.
We're too late.
Let's give them a taste
of their own medicine.
[VIOLET SPEAKS ALIEN]
[CHUCKLES] No.
Not a harvest.
An extermination.
Well, it's been nice
knowing you, Rose.
Brace yourself.
Hold on!
Now I am become death.
Destroyer of worlds.
Plot a course for home.
Engage the drive as soon
as we're clear of the rings.
[ROSE AND LEON SCREAMING]
ROSE: Hold on!
LEON: I'm holding on!
[SLOWING DOWN]
Rose... we're in space.
I know.
There it is.
What are you gonna do?
It's working. We're
getting closer!
What about Trent?
How did he die?
What's this about?
Just trying to figure out why
there's traces of a high thyroxine
pilot blood on your body.
Same as on the
diseased pilots on Earth.
Huh.
If I didn't know any better, I'd think
they derived from the same source.
- [YELLS]
- [BOTH GRUNTING]
[ALARM BLARING]
Everything you've
got. This is it!
Get us back on this ship, Rose!
Get us back!
OWENS: Motherfucker.
- [ALARM BLARING]
- Rose?
Get you to the med lab.
We've got some blood there.
I really like what you've
done with your hair.
Obviously, it wasn't
supposed to be like this.
General!
Zhi.
Can't you see they've
been compromised?
He's not the sharpest.
Just look at her.
Don't listen to him, Zhi.
He's been lying
from the beginning.
He bombed Cobalt
before we got here.
And then he unleashed the
same virus on the Pilots back home.
ZHI: I know.
And I have the proof.
Shoot them and I send it to
every military base on Earth.
Be my guest.
Half of them will probably
thank me. Call me a hero.
Or a piece of shit.
Well, now, that's just rude.
No! [GRUNTS]
Damn it!
You chose the wrong side, Rose.
Of what? Genocide?
The virus was meant to
euthanize the Pilots peacefully.
Humanely.
And you thought it worked, too.
So you let it loose
in your own backyard.
But you had no goddamn clue
what you did until it was too late.
Well, thanks to you, I
can mop up that error,
eradicate every last one
of them, and save London.
All in time for tea.
Now I can give the
Earth back to mankind.
The real mankind.
You know what?
You're gonna
have to fight for it.
- [GRUNTS]
- [TRENT GROWLS]
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
- [GRUNTS]
- LEON: What's the matter, General?
Afraid to fight for yourself?
- [BONES CRUNCH]
- [SCREAMS]
Not if I don't have to.
[BOTH GRUNTING]
- Head for the main road?
- DR. MAL: Brace yourself.
We're not in Kansas anymore.
[SCREAMS]
[YELLS]
Trent, no!
Trent! Stop.
Fight it.
Stop.
Come back to me.
[TRENT STRAINING]
[TRENT ROARS]
[BOTH GRUNTING]
You can't fight
their nature, Rose.
That was never Trent.
Or Violet. [CHUCKLES]
They're abominations!
Something your father
and I could never agree on.
So he had to go.
[GUN COCKING]
As do you.
- [CRUNCHING]
- [SCREAMS]
You cheap bastard.
- [YELLS]

[SCREAMS]
Get the fuck out of my way.

[LEON SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY]

I can't let her leave this room.
[VIOLET SPEAKING ALIEN]
Go! Now!
OWENS: Open!
Rose!
Go!
OWENS: Violet!
Open the goddamn
door! That's an order!
Open!
Violet!
[SCREAMS]
- We've got to go, Rose. Come on.
- No!
If she gets to the core drive,
she'll kill everyone on Earth.
Rose!
Fine. If you're
staying, I'm staying.
ROSE: Violet's taking
us into the wormhole.
Go get Trent and
get out of here. Now!
What about you?
I have to finish this myself.
- Easy, now, big guy. Easy.
- [TRENT GROWLS]
Trent, wait! It's not you.
No! No!
Trent! You need
to snap out of this!
- [SNARLING]

Trent.
Stay with me.
[SOBBING] You'll be
okay. You'll be okay.
All right. Good as new.
It sounds bad, but...
I never really saw
them as human.
Just the enemy.
A reminder of
everything I've lost.
But now?
Now all I see is a brother willing
to give his life for his sister...
and a dickhead like me.
[CHUCKLES]
Yeah, well, I
think he likes you.
You reckon?
You're still alive, aren't you?
Good point.
[SCREAMS]
- ROSE: How far are we from London?
- LEON: Violet?
[VIOLET SPEAKING ALIEN]
Let's get there
as fast as we can.
- It's too late.
- What are we gonna do now?
How are we supposed
to stop them all?
Leave that to me.
[GRUNTS]
[PILOTS SHRIEKING]
- DR. MAL: How the hell did you to that?
- Which part?
All of it.
Let's just say, between
your serum and my ship,
we have more than enough
power now to cure everyone.
Well, I guess
we're finally even.
I guess we are.
Look at you, all grown up.
[CHUCKLES] Wait.
Where's Grant?
Wish he could have
been here to see this.
The stories he'd have told.
I guess now it's your turn.
Come on. I'm double-parked.
[THUNDERCLAP]
Guys.
Doc says it's gonna
take a couple of weeks
to get used to the new body,
but introducing the new
and improved Trent Corley.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
Nah, you look good,
man. You look great.
How'd you get uglier?
ZHI: Hey, guys.
Have a look at this.
I hacked Radford's
personal files.
ROSE: What is it?
ZHI: A prison.
Where he kept all his
enemies of the state.
[TRENT SPEAKS ALIEN]
ZHI: Including your father.
Violet. Set a new course.
[VIOLET SPEAKING]
I told you so.
[TRENT SPEAKING ALIEN]
I don't know what
We're supposed to be
But I know we
lost it Along the way
To something better...
[LAUGHS] I'll go out again.
DIRECTOR: Cut!
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
Whoa. Oh, yes. It's
quite fun, actually.
[ROSE LAUGHS]
Watch your step.
