MAN 2: Come on.
Get him out of here.
Go.
Listen, please don't go crazy.
Don't do anything else that we would regret.
We know about Kessler.
We know he led an expedition into Central Asia, maybe Mongolia.
And we know that he discovered something there that helped build Lorentec.
But that isn't his real legacy, is it? Let me show you something.
Oh! Now, who is that? Looks awful familiar, doesn't he? Listen, either Either that's your father or an uncle, or it's you.
We know that Kessler was a generation ahead of his peers in genomics.
He cloned a sheep 20 years before Dolly.
How much longer would it take him to clone a man? We know his research made those things in the ocean.
Just like he made you.
I have no idea where he is.
I know.
I know.
I just keep thinking he's all right, and he'll show up any minute, walk through the door.
Miles.
Miles, oh, don't ever leave like that again.
I don't buy it, not for a second.
I think you know exactly what you are.

Let me do what I gotta do.
Now, come on! These things are out in the ocean.
They're killing people! Now, what was it, huh? Was it just some sort of experiment gone wrong? Now they're just trying to cover up their accident? What? It wasn't an accident.
Then what is it? Answer! Answer me.
You got a lot of calls to 910 here, Davis.

No.
They won't.
Good night.
Well, you sure about this? What am I gonna do, skip school for the next three years? Well, Mom and Dad seemed fine if you wanted to stay home.

Coach Henry has asked me to urge all students to attend today's pep rally in the main auditorium.
So come on out and show your school spirit.
Your family and friends are invited to attend Friday night's basketball game when our varsity Bulldogs will face off against the Charlotte Panthers.
Dude, what's that smell? Tickets are on sale daily Don't tell me.
It's gonna be a long day.
I'm telling you, I could tell by the look in his eyes.
Something is going on down at Iderdex.
I could feel it.
Now, the only thing is, can we risk an airplane, because otherwise Pull over! Rich, pull over.
What? I can't do this.
Do what? I can't I can't do any of this, especially not with you.
What are you talking about? Hey! Hey! Wait a minute.
What are you talking about? We're finally getting somewhere.
Is that what you call it? Is that what you call kidnapping a man and terrorizing him and nearly blowing his brains out? That guy was not a man.
That guy was a fake.
He's a Xerox! He doesn't even have a soul.
Will you listen to yourself, please? You are not acting rationally.
You're gonna go down there, and you're gonna get yourself killed.
That's what's gonna happen.
Okay, you know what? You know what, though? If I don't do something, who's gonna? It's up to us! There's nothing to do anymore, Rich! It's over! Okay? The cat's out of the bag.
You can go down there, and you can blow that plant sky high, but you can't destroy the technology.
It's over.
Well, I ain't quitting! I don't care what you do.
Well, where you going? Home.
To see my son.
Where do you wanna sit? Where we always do? Might not be possible, homes.
Wow, that's depressing.
Punked even by the geeks.

You disappear for weeks with no communication.
I've got federal agents showing up at my house saying they want to question you.
Did you not see the piece on MSNBC? It was a cover-up.
It was the piece that turned me around.
Before, I thought maybe you were right.
I don't know.
I don't think you're seeing things quite clearly, D.
I had to do what's best for Jesse.
What's that supposed to mean? I got you help.
So you can stop running away, okay? You can face your problems.
It's for the best, D.
Chin up, dude.
You're moping.
What are you doing here? Something's going down at the aquarium.
People coming to see the carcasses my dad collected, government people.
Perfect, more guns.
The van said CDC, whatever that is.
Where you going, little man? Come on.
Let's go.
Wait.
Who's this? Does your lizard know about your other girlfriend? You know, you'd think girlfriends would be a sore subject for you right now, Greg.
Oh, I'm not worried.
Your sister will snap out of it.
No, she won't.
Face it.
You've been punked.

With Greg Butler.
Is he all right? No, ma'am.
He's not.

The young man has been severely burned.
Burned? Quite extensively, I understand.
Is your son on the premises, ma'am? I'm right here.
You need to go with us, son.
No, no.
He's not going anywhere until I have a chance to speak to my husband.

It's Greg's dad.
We know he's in there! Mr.
Butler, I know you're upset, but I want you to turn around, get back in your car, and let us do our job.
Where is he? He's here and we're dealing with it.
This isn't like some kind of high school fight where a kid busts a lip and walks away.
My kid's in the hospital with third degree burns all over his body because of that freak.
This is your last chance, Mr.
Butler.
I want you to turn around How many people have to get hurt before you put that kid away? Arrest him, already! I want you out.

The man you showed me in the film.
Why do you want to know? Just answer the question! I don't know anything.
AII I know is that he looks a lot like you.
I was right, wasn't I? You didn't know what you were.
I suspected.
Not that having it confirmed matters.
Why wouldn't it? Because he is doing things.
Things that can't be undone.
Doing things? Who are you talking about? Kessler, of course.
Kessler? But Kessler's dead.
He'd be 110 years old.

You want to tell me what's going on here? Are you Mr.
Barnett? Yes, I am.
And I want these people off of my lawn, now! Now! We're not leaving without him.
