- 0:09Speaker 1: Let's do it.
- 0:11Speaker 4: Let's do it.
- 0:12Speaker 5: Killer Cargo, written by Heather Foster. After a luxury jet's
- 0:17Speaker 5: secret cargo turns out to be a murderous alien, a
- 0:20Speaker 5: trampy flight attendant must destroy it before it devours the world. Interior,
- 0:26Speaker 5: Gulfstream 650ER Cockpit Night. Super, Springfield, Missouri. Kevin Powers, 35,
- 0:34Speaker 5: cock of a walk wannabe, rests in the co-pilot seat.
- 0:37Speaker 5: State-of-the-art flat screens blaze across his douchey face. He gazes
- 0:42Speaker 5: at the lights illuminating the runway against the inky black sky.
- 0:46Speaker 5: Kevin loves this job, mostly because he feels it makes
- 0:49Speaker 5: him better than everyone else. He does dig the view, though.
- 0:53Speaker 5: Right outside the door, Anita Fitzgerald, 28, hardworking, poised with
- 0:57Speaker 5: a sprinkle of daddy issues... bends over, buffing a minuscule
- 1:01Speaker 5: smudge out of the hand-carved mahogany wood. Kevin twists around
- 1:05Speaker 5: to watch her work. This view's pretty terrific, too.
- 1:08Speaker 3: Hey, Anita. Did you have a chance to think about
- 1:11Speaker 3: that charity dinner?
- 1:13Speaker 5: She straightens, turns, and challenges his ogling.
- 1:16Speaker 6: I believe I'm busy that night.
- 1:18Speaker 3: I didn't say what night it was.
- 1:19Speaker 5: Anita's way out of his league, but Kevin's the only
- 1:23Speaker 5: one who doesn't seem to know this. She shoots him a,
- 1:26Speaker 5: you poor thing, smirk.
- 1:28Speaker 1: Kevin.
- 1:29Speaker 6: I said I'm busy.
- 1:30Speaker 5: The sound of footsteps pulls her attention to the main door.
- 1:33Speaker 5: Her eyes crinkle into a genuine smile.
- 1:36Speaker 6: Oh, good evening, Captain.
- 1:38Speaker 5: Charles Song, 53, Silver Fox, steps in, removes his cap,
- 1:42Speaker 5: and gallantly nods to her.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Good evening, Anita. And Merry Christmas.
- 1:48Speaker 6: Merry Christmas, sir.
- 1:50Speaker 5: He presses by. She inhales him as he pauses.
- 1:54Speaker 4: Smells good.
- 1:56Speaker 5: Captain Charles enters the cockpit and places his leather travel
- 1:59Speaker 5: bag into his cubbyhole Merry Christmas, Kevin.
- 2:03Speaker 3: Merry Christmas, Captain Pre-flight is complete.
- 2:06Speaker 5: Charles takes his seat in the captain's chair Thank you
- 2:09Speaker 5: He proceeds to check Kevin's work.
- 2:12Speaker 1: Ah, Christmas Eve And here we are At least it's
- 2:16Speaker 1: a short flight Well, I'll be back home nestled in
- 2:20Speaker 1: with Mrs. Claus before I know it Are you going
- 2:23Speaker 1: to your folks tomorrow?
- 2:25Speaker 5: A flicker of hesitation crosses Kevin's face. He was planning
- 2:28Speaker 5: on getting drunk all day.
- 2:29Speaker 3: Alone.
- 2:31Speaker 4: Uh, yeah, Mom's, uh, making a ham.
- 2:34Speaker 5: Good.
- 2:35Speaker 1: You're smart to enjoy your folks while they're still here.
- 2:39Speaker 1: I miss mine every day.
- 2:42Speaker 4: I plan on it, sir.
- 2:43Speaker 5: Desperate to stop this Norman Rockwell bullshit.
- 2:45Speaker 3: Why do you think it's so important that we're flying tonight?
- 2:48Speaker 1: Our job is to fly the plane, not ask questions.
- 2:52Speaker 5: You know that.
- 2:53Speaker 4: Of course. And Kevin? Yes, sir?
- 2:56Speaker 1: I smell cigarettes on you again. Please refrain from smoking
- 3:01Speaker 1: before we fly.
- 3:03Speaker 4: Yes, sir. It won't happen again.
- 3:04Speaker 1: See that it doesn't.
- 3:06Speaker 5: Thanks to the dark of night, Captain Charles misses Kevin's
- 3:09Speaker 5: eye roll. Exterior, Gulfstream, 650ER, night. The sleek jet glistens
- 3:15Speaker 5: on the twinkling airstrip. Parked at the base of its stairs,
- 3:19Speaker 5: a six-foot-by-three-foot frosted fiberglass sarcophagus rests on a gurney. Frowning,
- 3:24Speaker 5: Cliff Krantz, 42, a giant man in a $ 6, 000 Brunello
- 3:29Speaker 5: Cuccinelli suit, the heavy, gives an unimpressed nod.
- 3:33Speaker 4: That's it?
- 3:34Speaker 5: If Idris Elba had an exact opposite, Idris Bowman, 49,
- 3:38Speaker 5: would be it.
- 3:40Speaker 4: Yes.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Perfect.
- 3:47Speaker 5: Wiping sweat off his brow, Idris peers at his Apple
- 3:50Speaker 5: Watch and then back at the man-sized container.
- 3:53Speaker 2: We really need to get this plugged back in.
- 3:57Speaker 4: No one's stopping you.
- 3:58Speaker 5: Arnie Heim, 27, a gangly, goofy fucker in a cheap
- 4:01Speaker 5: velour tracksuit waves.
- 4:03Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Arnie.
- 4:04Speaker 4: Don't care.
- 4:06Speaker 5: Soliciting Cliff for help with the pod.
- 4:09Speaker 4: Would you mind? You made it this far. I'm only
- 4:11Speaker 4: here to make sure you don't fuck up.
- 4:13Speaker 2: It's a bit heavy.
- 4:15Speaker 4: Use your legs.
- 4:16Speaker 2: Right.
- 4:18Speaker 5: Idris looks at Arnie.
- 4:19Speaker 3: Okay, on three.
- 4:24Speaker 2: One, two, three.
- 4:29Speaker 5: Arnie lifts his end with ease. Idris lifts up and
- 4:32Speaker 5: the container thuds to the ground.
- 4:34Speaker 4: What the fuck?
- 4:36Speaker 3: Sorry, I lost my grip. I told you, it's heavy.
- 4:41Speaker 5: Move. He pushes Idris away, searching the end of the vessel.
- 4:46Speaker 4: All your brilliant minds and nobody made a handle?
- 4:49Speaker 2: It wasn't created to be moved.
- 4:56Speaker 5: Cliff heaves the container up. Underneath the pod, we see
- 5:00Speaker 5: a tiny, tiny hole.
- 5:03Speaker 4: Let's go.
- 5:04Speaker 5: Arnie and Cliff wedge the pod into the plane. Idris
- 5:08Speaker 5: hurries after them. Interior, Gulfstream, 650 ER, main cabin, night.
- 5:13Speaker 5: Anita greets the passengers with her work smile.
- 5:16Speaker 6: Welcome, gentlemen. We've prepared a place in the back. Follow me, please.
- 5:22Speaker 5: Rich woodwork gleams in soft, low light. Rows of buttery leather.
- 5:26Speaker 5: Cream-colored seats beckon over exotic animal print rugs. Large oval
- 5:30Speaker 5: windows line the craft's walls. With a ceiling tall enough
- 5:34Speaker 5: that the two big guys don't have to hunch over,
- 5:37Speaker 5: and a width of nearly nine feet, maneuvering the container
- 5:40Speaker 5: is much easier here than up the stairs.
- 5:43Speaker 6: There are two lavatories, one here and one aft.
- 5:46Speaker 2: Aft?
- 5:47Speaker 3: Back.
- 5:49Speaker 6: We don't say back on a plane.
- 5:52Speaker 4: Is it bad luck or something?
- 5:55Speaker 6: Um, it's taken from sailing. From ships.
- 6:00Speaker 4: Oh, what's in there?
- 6:03Speaker 5: He points to a small room next to the cockpit.
- 6:05Speaker 6: Crew quarters. Anyway, the other restroom is in the plane's
- 6:10Speaker 6: aft through the galley.
- 6:12Speaker 5: She gestures to a well-stocked restroom complete with a huge
- 6:15Speaker 5: picture window. Arnie stops to gawk and then whistles.
- 6:21Speaker 1: What a view to take a dump.
- 6:23Speaker 4: It's a bathroom, you fucking moron. Keep moving.
- 6:29Speaker 5: They continue their trek through the jet. Interior, Gulfstream 650 ER,
- 6:34Speaker 5: living room slash bedroom, night. A plush sofa faces a
- 6:39Speaker 5: 60-inch flat screen. An old-fashioned popcorn machine stands tethered in
- 6:42Speaker 5: the corner. Once again, Arnie pauses to take it in.
- 6:46Speaker 4: Nice. Go! Jeez.
- 6:50Speaker 2: Cliff's right, Arnie. Time is of the essence.
- 6:53Speaker 5: Idris wrings his sweaty hands, his face carrying the word
- 6:56Speaker 5: expression of an expectant father. They keep moving. Interior, Gulfstream 650ER, cockpit, night.
- 7:04Speaker 5: Through the windscreen, runway lights outline their path as Captain
- 7:07Speaker 5: Charles and Kevin prepare for takeoff.
- 7:10Speaker 1: Left and right.
- 7:11Speaker 4: Clear.
- 7:12Speaker 5: Gulfstream 255, Tango, Yankee, runway 25, clear for takeoff.
- 7:16Speaker 1: Runway 25 clear for takeoff, Gulfstream 255 Tango Yankee.
- 7:21Speaker 5: With a cheesy wink to Kevin.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Here's mud in your eye.
- 7:27Speaker 5: Charles pushes the throttle. Interior, Gulfstream 650 ER galley. A
- 7:32Speaker 5: few minutes later, a pulsing hum radiates from the pod.
- 7:36Speaker 5: Idris double-checks the milky sarcophagus. Everything seems to be working.
- 7:41Speaker 5: Cliff towers in the doorway.
- 7:43Speaker 4: Where did this thing come from? Not here.
- 7:47Speaker 5: Idris slides past him. Cliff grimaces at the strange container
- 7:52Speaker 5: and follows the quirky little man, leaving the pod alone.
- 7:57Speaker 5: A hiss seethes under the noise of the jet engine.
- 8:03Speaker 5: Air oozes into that tiny hole in the bottom. Interior
- 8:09Speaker 5: Gulfstream 650ER main cabin night. A nervous silence hangs over
- 8:14Speaker 5: the men. Arnie's knees bounce, freeing boyish energy. He springs
- 8:18Speaker 5: up and paces the aisle. Arnie inspects a handsome wooden console,
- 8:23Speaker 5: roots inside it.
- 8:25Speaker 4: Score.
- 8:26Speaker 5: It's a liquor cabinet, stocked with rows and rows of
- 8:29Speaker 5: spiritus polish vodka. He holds up a bottle.
- 8:32Speaker 4: Hey, is this stuff any good?
- 8:34Speaker 5: Reading the label.
- 8:35Speaker 3: Damn, 190 proof?
- 8:38Speaker 4: Put it back, you aren't guests. Bro. Do it, bro.
- 8:43Speaker 5: Arnie sets the bottle on the console.
- 8:44Speaker 3: Chill.
- 8:45Speaker 5: Cliff rises.
- 8:47Speaker 4: When I get back, I want to hear nothing but quiet.
- 8:50Speaker 5: Cliff moves towards the interior galley night. From the doorway,
- 8:55Speaker 5: Cliff glares at the pod. Something about it gives him
- 8:58Speaker 5: the creeps. He scurries around it like a kid afraid
- 9:01Speaker 5: of a closet monster into the laboratory and slides the
- 9:04Speaker 5: door closed. The door's lock clicks. Unattended, the container purrs
- 9:10Speaker 5: in the galley. And then, From within. Interior hallway next
- 9:17Speaker 5: to the cockpit, night. Anita knuckles a tap on the
- 9:21Speaker 5: door before entering. The interior, cockpit, night. She peeks her
- 9:26Speaker 5: head in.
- 9:27Speaker 2: Gentlemen, need anything?
- 9:29Speaker 4: Nothing for me, hon.
- 9:31Speaker 5: She rubs the bridge of her nose with her middle finger.
- 9:33Speaker 1: Do we have any more of that Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee?
- 9:38Speaker 6: Oh, of course. However, it'll take a little bit longer.
- 9:42Speaker 6: I need to grind some beans.
- 9:45Speaker 5: I'd love some. Anita leaves the room. Interior galley night.
- 9:51Speaker 5: The bathroom door creeps open and Cliff's broad face pokes out.
- 9:55Speaker 5: Did he hear something? He stares down at the container
- 9:59Speaker 5: in front of him. and peers into its milky plexiglass.
- 10:02Speaker 5: Guess not. Shuddering from a heebie-jeebie attack, Cliff bolts out
- 10:07Speaker 5: of the room. The pod sits alone again. Through its
- 10:12Speaker 5: cloudy cover, a vague shadow ripples. Interior Cockpit Night. Charles
- 10:19Speaker 5: glances at his watch.
- 10:21Speaker 1: I'm gonna see a man about a horse. Betty's in
- 10:25Speaker 1: your control.
- 10:26Speaker 4: My control.
- 10:27Speaker 5: Charles moves out. As soon as he's out of sight,
- 10:30Speaker 5: Kevin mocks him.
- 10:31Speaker 4: I'm gonna see a man about a horse.
- 10:33Speaker 3: What a fucking douchebag.
- 10:38Speaker 5: Interior galley, night. A few minutes later, the gurgle of
- 10:43Speaker 5: the coffee pot. Anita stares off, her mind a million
- 10:46Speaker 5: miles away. Behind her, a stem in the color of
- 10:50Speaker 5: mildewed clay finds a small hole in the pond's latch.
- 10:54Speaker 5: It pokes through, pulsing at its tiny tip. Interior, main cabin, night.
- 11:01Speaker 5: Captain Charles strides by the seated men, barely acknowledging them. Interior, galley, night.
- 11:08Speaker 5: Charles shuts the door behind him, towering over Anita. The
- 11:12Speaker 5: stem snaps back into the.
- 11:13Speaker 2: Pond, unseen.
- 11:15Speaker 1: May I be of service?
- 11:17Speaker 5: She doesn't turn around.
- 11:18Speaker 6: Took you long enough.
- 11:24Speaker 5: He spins her, pulling her into him. No time to waste.
- 11:29Speaker 5: He ravishes her breasts while she works his manhood. This
- 11:36Speaker 5: isn't the first time they've fucked in this kitchen. Interior, pod, night.
- 11:43Speaker 5: Seen through the frosted pane, Captain Charles flips Anita around,
- 11:46Speaker 5: taking her from behind. He breathes into her ear.
- 11:51Speaker 1: Let me grind that bean. Sweet Jesus.
- 11:57Speaker 5: In the pod. From an alien POV, golden trails of
- 12:02Speaker 5: energy spurt off the lover's grinding bodies. This energy-filled light
- 12:06Speaker 5: floats into the pod. Whatever is in there slurps its approval.
- 12:16Speaker 5: Interior galley night. Unbeknownst to the screwing couple, the gray-green
- 12:21Speaker 5: fiber stretches out of the pod lock again, a throbbing
- 12:25Speaker 5: knob now at its tip. Interior cockpit night. Kevin checks
- 12:30Speaker 5: his watch. He mutters.
- 12:33Speaker 3: Prostate issues, Grandpa?
- 12:35Speaker 5: Interior galley night. Charles and Anita mash away, locked in
- 12:40Speaker 5: a grunting rhythm.
- 12:41Speaker 4: God, this feels good!
- 12:47Speaker 5: Behind them, the foreign organ rocks from side to side,
- 12:50Speaker 5: growing longer and longer. The lovers whisper.
- 12:57Speaker 6: Tell me how much.
- 13:00Speaker 5: Baby, you know.
- 13:01Speaker 3: No, no, no, tell me.
- 13:04Speaker 5: This is all I think about.
- 13:07Speaker 6: Tell me you love me.
- 13:10Speaker 1: Sure, yeah.
- 13:11Speaker 3: Tell me.
- 13:13Speaker 5: I love you.
- 13:16Speaker 6: I love you, too. I can't wait for us to
- 13:19Speaker 6: be together.
- 13:27Speaker 2: Good morning. Interior, main cabin, night.
- 13:33Speaker 5: Three men in different stages of boredom. Arnie whines.
- 13:36Speaker 4: I can't believe you guys won't let me at least
- 13:39Speaker 4: play Candy Crush. You were never here. You can go
- 13:43Speaker 4: without your phone for an hour, God.
- 13:45Speaker 5: Defeated, Arnie takes a deep breath.
- 13:48Speaker 3: That coffee smells good. And I don't even like coffee.
- 13:52Speaker 5: Idris inhales.
- 13:54Speaker 4: It sure does.
- 13:55Speaker 3: Do you think I could get a Coke?
- 13:57Speaker 4: Will it make you shut up?
- 13:58Speaker 3: Yeah!
- 13:59Speaker 5: Arnie rockets up.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Would you mind getting me a coffee, Arnie?
- 14:03Speaker 3: Sure thing, Idris.
- 14:04Speaker 5: Interior, living room slash bedroom, night. Arnie revels in the
- 14:08Speaker 5: trappings of the billionaire rich. He sniffs out the flat
- 14:11Speaker 5: screen's remote and clicks it on. Thousands of movies at
- 14:15Speaker 5: his disposal. He selects the old Steve McQueen movie, The Blob.
- 14:19Speaker 5: The melodramatic score covers Anita and Charles banging away on
- 14:23Speaker 5: the other side of the door.
- 14:24Speaker 3: Classic.
- 14:29Speaker 5: Stretching out on the sofa, the light of the horror
- 14:31Speaker 5: flick washes over his simple face. Artie jumps up to
- 14:35Speaker 5: investigate the street vendor popcorn machine in the corner. His
- 14:38Speaker 5: sleuthing uncovers oil and kernels in a nearby cabinet. He
- 14:42Speaker 5: pours them into the kettle, very satisfied with himself, and
- 14:46Speaker 5: switches it on. Interior cockpit night. Kevin checks his watch again.
- 14:51Speaker 3: What is taking that geezer so long?
- 14:54Speaker 5: Interior galley night. Charles plows into Anita. What? Nearly there, driving, thrusting.
- 15:02Speaker 5: Behind the lovers, the strange tendril pushes at the latch.
- 15:05Speaker 5: Anita moans.
- 15:08Speaker 6: Tell me, tell me.
- 15:09Speaker 5: Pulsing in time with them, the stem reaches.
- 15:12Speaker 4: I love you.
- 15:15Speaker 3: Stretching.
- 15:17Speaker 4: Almost there.
- 15:19Speaker 2: Say, Olivia.
- 15:21Speaker 5: Charles moans in ecstasy. So close.
- 15:25Speaker 4: Almost there.
- 15:28Speaker 2: Almost. Say it.
- 15:30Speaker 1: Come on, baby.
- 15:31Speaker 3: Say it.
- 15:35Speaker 1: I can't yet.
- 15:36Speaker 2: No.
- 15:37Speaker 5: Oh, Reed. Anita has her pants up in one cat-like mood.
- 15:42Speaker 1: Oh, come on.
- 15:44Speaker 5: Don't be like that.
- 15:45Speaker 3: I can't leave her now.
- 15:47Speaker 6: You're never going to leave her.
- 15:49Speaker 5: She huffs out, slamming the door behind her. Charles bellows
- 15:53Speaker 5: a half-hearted plea, but doesn't follow her.
- 15:55Speaker 4: It's Christmas!
- 15:57Speaker 5: A tentacle slides around Charles' throat and pulls with such
- 16:01Speaker 5: strength that his head tears away from his body. A
- 16:05Speaker 5: volcano of blood.
- 16:05Speaker 3: Rushes into his.
- 16:09Speaker 4: Neck.
- 16:09Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 16:10Speaker 3: Sure.
- 16:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 16:11Speaker 2: Interior, living room slash bedroom, night.
- 16:23Speaker 5: Anita storms in, cheeks flushed from sex and rage. Her
- 16:27Speaker 5: eyes land on the cheesy horror film on the screen.
- 16:31Speaker 2: What are you doing?
- 16:32Speaker 5: Arnie clicks the TV off.
- 16:33Speaker 2: Nothing, sorry.
- 16:35Speaker 5: She continues through the cabin.
- 16:37Speaker 3: Can I get a Coke?
- 16:42Speaker 6: Will you give me a moment? My apologies.
- 16:45Speaker 3: Oh, sure, I'll just get it myself.
- 16:47Speaker 5: She waves but keeps moving. The waterworks are on their
- 16:50Speaker 5: way and she doesn't want the knuckle-dragger to see her cry. Pop, pop, pop.
- 16:56Speaker 5: Popcorn kernel bursts in the kettle. Now for that coke. Whistling,
- 17:01Speaker 5: Arnie glides the galley door open. Interior, front, nose, laboratory, night.
- 17:09Speaker 5: Anita throws her heartbroken self inside, finally alone. The tears come,
- 17:14Speaker 5: glaring at herself in the mirror.
- 17:18Speaker 6: You dumbass!
- 17:20Speaker 5: Spits at her reflection, and then quickly wipes it off.
- 17:24Speaker 3: Another holiday alone.
- 17:26Speaker 5: Dabbing a little water on her face, she inhales a deep,
- 17:30Speaker 5: cleansing breath.
- 17:33Speaker 2: You're a walking cliché.
- 17:34Speaker 5: Knock, knock.
- 17:36Speaker 3: If you think you can just say you're sorry.
- 17:38Speaker 5: She jerks the door open. Kevin.
- 17:41Speaker 3: Great.
- 17:42Speaker 5: Oh.
- 17:43Speaker 3: Sorry for what?
- 17:45Speaker 4: Nothing.
- 17:46Speaker 3: Bad time of the month?
- 17:47Speaker 5: She spews a disgusted sigh.
- 17:49Speaker 6: What do you want?
- 17:52Speaker 5: Where's Charleston?
- 17:53Speaker 6: How would I know?
- 17:54Speaker 2: And who's flying the plane?
- 17:55Speaker 3: It's fine. I turned on George. I need to use
- 17:57Speaker 3: the can.
- 17:59Speaker 2: What are you, five?
- 18:00Speaker 6: You can't hold your bladder for an hour?
- 18:03Speaker 3: Maybe it's not my bladder.
- 18:05Speaker 4: Ugh, gross.
- 18:07Speaker 3: You forgot your license, right?
- 18:09Speaker 6: I'm short a few hours, but.
- 18:10Speaker 3: Well, here's your chance to get some time.
- 18:15Speaker 5: Fine. They trade places.
- 18:18Speaker 2: Excuse me.
- 18:20Speaker 5: Interior, galley, night. Arnie slides the door open to absolute carnage.
- 18:29Speaker 5: Gore on every surface. It's even dripping off the ceiling.
- 18:33Speaker 5: Arnie has seen a lot in his young life, but
- 18:35Speaker 5: nothing like a small green blob about the size of
- 18:38Speaker 5: an iPhone sprawls on Charles' chest. Rippling out of the
- 18:42Speaker 5: creature are hundreds of stems. They roll and lurch into
- 18:46Speaker 5: every hole of the captain's body. Arnie's jaw unhinges to
- 18:50Speaker 5: release a full-throated scream.
- 19:00Speaker 1: The little whippers just killed me.
- 19:06Speaker 5: Interior cockpit night. Anita in Charles' seat. Cry singing.
- 19:11Speaker 6: Blue Christmas without you.
- 19:21Speaker 5: Interior hallway next to the cockpit. Night. Kevin grimaces on
- 19:26Speaker 5: the other side of the door.
- 19:27Speaker 4: Cringe.
- 19:39Speaker 5: This chick is definitely going through some shit. Interior cockpit night.
- 19:47Speaker 5: Kevin sticks his head in.
- 19:48Speaker 4: Wow, you are a terrorist.
- 19:50Speaker 1: Singer.
- 19:51Speaker 5: Anita wipes her wet face.
- 19:54Speaker 6: How was your little potty break?
- 19:56Speaker 3: Well, it all worked out in the end.
- 19:58Speaker 4: Ew!
- 19:59Speaker 5: He grins.
- 20:01Speaker 3: You are extra cranky tonight.
- 20:03Speaker 4: You mean bitchy? You said it, not me.
- 20:05Speaker 3: I thought you wanted to fly.
- 20:07Speaker 4: I do, but.
- 20:09Speaker 3: But what?
- 20:10Speaker 1: Nothing.
- 20:11Speaker 5: They sit in stony silence.
- 20:14Speaker 3: This whole night's been weird, don't you think? I'm ready
- 20:17Speaker 3: for a drink.
- 20:18Speaker 2: What's new?
- 20:19Speaker 3: What does that mean?
- 20:21Speaker 5: Her condescending hand pats his shoulder.
- 20:24Speaker 6: I'll go check on Charles.
- 20:26Speaker 5: He waits until she's gone.
- 20:28Speaker 3: It's definitely that time of the month.
- 20:36Speaker 5: Interior main cabin night. Arnie's muffled scream pierces the closed door.
- 20:46Speaker 5: Cliff and Idris lock eyes.
- 20:47Speaker 4: Idris!
- 20:48Speaker 2: Idris!
- 20:50Speaker 5: Cliff jumps up, but Idris holds out his arm, shaking
- 20:53Speaker 5: his head no. Don't move.
- 20:54Speaker 2: He got out!
- 20:55Speaker 6: Idris, he got out!
- 20:58Speaker 5: Idris creeps to the doorway and whispers through it.
- 21:01Speaker 2: Arnie, listen to me. Be quiet. You are only attracting
- 21:08Speaker 2: attention to yourself.
- 21:11Speaker 3: Okay, Tristan.
- 21:13Speaker 2: Find a place to hide and stay still.
- 21:18Speaker 4: We have to land the plane. What?
- 21:21Speaker 2: You heard me.
- 21:22Speaker 4: No.
- 21:23Speaker 3: You have to deliver.
- 21:25Speaker 4: That was the deal.
- 21:27Speaker 2: Then we're all going to die.
- 21:32Speaker 5: Interior Galley Knight. The smooth, faceless organism turns, and for
- 21:37Speaker 5: a split second, it takes on Charles' features. It beholds
- 21:42Speaker 5: Arnie with a crooked grin. Alien POV. Golden energy swirls
- 21:47Speaker 5: around the man-boy's stupefied face. Interior living room slash bedroom.
- 21:53Speaker 4: Night.
- 21:54Speaker 5: Pop. Pop.
- 21:56Speaker 4: Pop.
- 21:57Speaker 5: The kettle brims with popcorn. Arnie dies behind the machine
- 22:01Speaker 5: and makes himself as small as he can. Eyes squeeze tight.
- 22:06Speaker 2: Squish.
- 22:08Speaker 5: The creature snakes to the top of the machine. The
- 22:10Speaker 5: heat from the glass sizzles its skin. The creature releases
- 22:14Speaker 5: a yip and slithers away. The machine starts to smoke. Interior,
- 22:23Speaker 5: main cabin, night. Anita smooths herself down, donning her professional persona.
- 22:29Speaker 5: She notices Cliff and Idra standing. Their attention fixed on
- 22:32Speaker 5: the closed bedroom door.
- 22:34Speaker 2: Is there a problem, gentlemen?
- 22:36Speaker 5: Cliff puts his finger to his lips.
- 22:40Speaker 2: What's going on?
- 22:41Speaker 5: Shut up, she heartens.
- 22:44Speaker 2: Charles is back there.
- 22:46Speaker 5: Idris meets Cliff's gaze, but they don't look at her.
- 22:50Speaker 5: That's all she needs to know. She flies to the door,
- 22:53Speaker 5: opens it. Interior, living room slash bedroom, night. Night. Through
- 22:58Speaker 5: the haze, Charles's crumpled, headless body.
- 23:04Speaker 4: Charles!
- 23:05Speaker 5: Something snakes to the side of her. Arnie jumps out
- 23:08Speaker 5: from behind the popcorn machine.
- 23:10Speaker 6: Get out of here!
- 23:14Speaker 5: And shoves her back into the main cabin. He's right
- 23:17Speaker 5: behind her when, thwack! An alien limb rips through Arnie's stomach.
- 23:24Speaker 5: His wide eyes fix on Idris.
- 23:27Speaker 2: Idris!
- 23:28Speaker 5: The appendage wraps around his body, wrenching it back. And
- 23:33Speaker 5: then Arnie is gone. Cliff slams the door shut. Interior,
- 23:39Speaker 5: main cabin, night. Scoops up the hysterical Anita. She kicks
- 23:43Speaker 5: and punches him to no avail.
- 23:47Speaker 4: Charles! Charles!
- 23:49Speaker 6: Put me down!
- 23:51Speaker 5: Cliff marches her into the interior flight crew quarters, night,
- 23:55Speaker 5: and tosses her into the chairs.
- 23:57Speaker 4: Stay here.
- 23:58Speaker 1: What is that thing?
- 23:59Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
- 24:01Speaker 3: Charles!
- 24:02Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 24:03Speaker 5: She wails.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Look at me.
- 24:08Speaker 4: I'm on it.
- 24:10Speaker 1: Cliff!
- 24:11Speaker 6: What is that thing?
- 24:12Speaker 4: I don't know. But you need to get your shit together.
- 24:16Speaker 2: Crick it off.
- 24:17Speaker 6: Okay.
- 24:19Speaker 5: She manages a nod.
- 24:20Speaker 4: And wipe that snot off your face.
- 24:22Speaker 5: She flips him off.
- 24:24Speaker 4: That's my girl.
- 24:27Speaker 5: Oh. Interior, main cabin, night. Cliff returns to find Idris, frozen,
- 24:34Speaker 5: staring at the door. An awful slurping noise at the
- 24:37Speaker 5: other side. Slurping, slurping, slurping.
- 24:43Speaker 2: Arnie, what are you doing? I shouldn't have agreed to
- 24:46Speaker 2: do this. This is all my fault.
- 24:49Speaker 4: Well, get it under control. Tell me what to do
- 24:51Speaker 4: to stop it. I don't know.
- 24:54Speaker 2: What do you mean? What do you mean you don't know?
- 24:57Speaker 2: I don't know how to stop it.
- 24:59Speaker 4: How did you ever have it under control?
- 25:02Speaker 2: It came to us this way. The vacuum of space
- 25:06Speaker 2: served as a sort of sedation, and it was always contained.
- 25:12Speaker 5: He glowers at Idris.
- 25:14Speaker 4: You short-sighted fucker.
- 25:18Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 25:23Speaker 5: Interior, cockpit, night. An endless ebony night extends beyond Kevin's silhouette.
- 25:29Speaker 4: Oh, I should have asked for coffee.
- 25:31Speaker 5: He stretches, cracks his neck, yawns. Interior, flight crew quarters, night.
- 25:40Speaker 5: Anita's shaky hands fumble her phone. She manages to dial
- 25:44Speaker 5: Miss Jagoda. She presses the phone to her ear and waits.
- 25:48Speaker 5: Two rings. Interior, hospital room, night. Super, Kansas City, Missouri.
- 25:56Speaker 5: A girl, seven-ish, wearing a headscarf and too many IVs,
- 26:01Speaker 5: sits up in her bed. She cradles an exquisitely gift-wrapped box.
- 26:06Speaker 3: For me?
- 26:08Speaker 5: Daria Jagoda, 32, halfway through her Christmas charity work, smiles
- 26:13Speaker 5: at the sweet girl.
- 26:14Speaker 4: Happy holidays.
- 26:16Speaker 5: The little one lifts the lid, and her innocent face
- 26:19Speaker 5: breaks into a giant grin.
- 26:21Speaker 4: How did you know?
- 26:23Speaker 5: I have my ways. Daria's phone buzzes in her $ 1, 200
- 26:28Speaker 5: cashmere hoodie's pocket. She slides it out. Anita.
- 26:33Speaker 2: I'll be right back, dear.
- 26:35Speaker 5: Beaming, the girl holds up a gorgeous pink dress against
- 26:38Speaker 5: her frail body. Daria throws her a kiss and exits.
- 26:42Speaker 1: Is that why you're wearing pink today, too?
- 26:43Speaker 5: Yes. That's awesome. Interior hospital hallway night. Three oversized bodyguards
- 26:51Speaker 5: in dark suits hover around the doorway. One of them
- 26:54Speaker 5: holds a red and white Santa bag brimming with holiday-themed treasures.
- 26:59Speaker 5: Daria strides past them, taking the call.
- 27:02Speaker 4: Anita! Hello, my darling.
- 27:05Speaker 5: Hi, Daria. Sorry to bother you.
- 27:08Speaker 6: We have an issue.
- 27:11Speaker 2: Issue?
- 27:13Speaker 5: Interior in flight crew quarters night. Anita swallows her terror
- 27:16Speaker 5: and collects herself.
- 27:18Speaker 1: With a Shipment?
- 27:21Speaker 5: Inner cut. Daria lowers her voice, very concerned.
- 27:25Speaker 4: What happened?
- 27:26Speaker 2: There was some thing in that pod.
- 27:28Speaker 5: It was some kind of creature.
- 27:30Speaker 6: And it got out.
- 27:33Speaker 5: Daria lets out a long, troubled breath.
- 27:37Speaker 4: Oh, sweetie. First and foremost, is everyone okay?
- 27:41Speaker 5: Anita shakes her head, forgetting that Daria can't see her.
- 27:47Speaker 1: Anita?
- 27:49Speaker 5: Dearest. Daria snaps at one of the suits, motioning for
- 27:52Speaker 5: him to distribute the rest of the presents. She returns
- 27:55Speaker 5: to the call. Anita's face breaks.
- 27:58Speaker 6: No, no, everyone's not okay.
- 28:02Speaker 5: Charles, he... Daria's hand goes to her mouth.
- 28:05Speaker 2: Oh no, you poor thing. What a nightmare.
- 28:08Speaker 5: Anita quietly sobs.
- 28:11Speaker 6: What is that thing?
- 28:13Speaker 5: Daria's eyes narrow.
- 28:15Speaker 4: Listen to me.
- 28:16Speaker 5: Have Kevin land immediately.
- 28:19Speaker 4: I'll track you, but confirm your location as soon as
- 28:21Speaker 4: you land.
- 28:22Speaker 5: Anita nods her head.
- 28:24Speaker 2: Copy that.
- 28:25Speaker 5: Daria strains to hear. Hello? On the other end, Anita's
- 28:30Speaker 5: eyes dart around the room.
- 28:33Speaker 3: Anita!
- 28:34Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, sorry.
- 28:35Speaker 4: Yes, yes.
- 28:36Speaker 6: Copy that.
- 28:37Speaker 5: Daria's voice drips with concern.
- 28:39Speaker 2: It's going to be okay.
- 28:41Speaker 5: I'm holding the intention that everything will be fine.
- 28:44Speaker 2: Let's say it together.
- 28:46Speaker 5: Anita glances around, slightly embarrassed. Everything will be fine.
- 28:53Speaker 3: Good, good.
- 28:54Speaker 4: I'll be with you soon.
- 28:56Speaker 5: Anita?
- 28:57Speaker 2: Yes?
- 28:59Speaker 5: Don't forget your Ujjayi breathing. It's very calming in high-stress situations.
- 29:04Speaker 5: Daria hands her phone to a bodyguard. Anita frowns at
- 29:07Speaker 5: the phone before stuffing it into her pants pocket and
- 29:09Speaker 5: sneaking out. She ducks into the interior cockpit night, off
- 29:15Speaker 5: her rattled face. What's going on?
- 29:18Speaker 6: Um, I spoke to Ms.
- 29:19Speaker 5: Tagoda.
- 29:20Speaker 6: She said we need to land the plane.
- 29:22Speaker 3: We're only 40 minutes out.
- 29:24Speaker 4: Now.
- 29:25Speaker 5: She checks a map screen.
- 29:27Speaker 6: We could land at BBG. It's almost underneath us.
- 29:29Speaker 3: There's nothing there. It's Branson, Missouri.
- 29:33Speaker 6: Our cargo, it got out.
- 29:36Speaker 3: What is it, like a tiger or something? I don't
- 29:38Speaker 3: know what it is. I don't know.
- 29:40Speaker 6: I hope i'm asleep and this is the most fucked
- 29:41Speaker 6: up nightmare i've ever had but charles is.
- 29:46Speaker 5: She shrieks.
- 29:49Speaker 3: Take us down or i will okay okay okay we'll
- 29:52Speaker 3: land in bbg into his headset This is Gulfstream 25
- 29:57Speaker 3: Tango Yankee. We need emergency clearance to land at ETA
- 30:01Speaker 3: four minutes.
- 30:04Speaker 4: I saw that.
- 30:06Speaker 2: I was hoping no one else would notice. It's one
- 30:08Speaker 2: more five.
- 30:11Speaker 1: Okay.
- 30:14Speaker 3: This is Gulfstream 255 Tango Yankee. We need emergency clearance
- 30:17Speaker 3: to land ETA four minutes.
- 30:19Speaker 5: He waits.
- 30:21Speaker 3: Repeat, this is Gulfstream 255 Tango Yankee.
- 30:24Speaker 4: We need to land now.
- 30:26Speaker 3: Hello, is anyone there?
- 30:28Speaker 5: Kevin checks his watch. It's 11.13 p.m.
- 30:31Speaker 3: The tower's probably closed.
- 30:32Speaker 6: We're coming anyway.
- 30:34Speaker 5: He shrugs and presses the yoke forward. Interior, main cabin, night.
- 30:39Speaker 5: Haze from the burning popcorn rolls under the door.
- 30:42Speaker 4: Fucking hell.
- 30:44Speaker 5: Hundreds of tiny tentacles explore the sides of the door.
- 30:48Speaker 5: Looking for a way out, they feel around. taking hold.
- 30:52Speaker 4: Crack!
- 30:53Speaker 5: It rips the door off its track. The door disappears
- 30:57Speaker 5: into the bedroom, revealing a room shrouded in fog. Cliff
- 31:02Speaker 5: slides a Ruger SR-22 from his shoulder holster. He peers
- 31:05Speaker 5: into the room. Across the sofa sprawls Arnie's mangled, husked body.
- 31:11Speaker 5: Idris staggers back, terrified. He never takes his eyes off
- 31:15Speaker 5: the dark lump that was Arnie.
- 31:17Speaker 4: He moans. I failed him. We don't have time for
- 31:21Speaker 4: that bullshit. Shove it deep down, Doc.
- 31:25Speaker 5: Cliff creeps backwards, away from the bodies, scanning for anything
- 31:29Speaker 5: that moves. Nothing. Then, he sees it. Hiding in the smoke. Something... Something...
- 31:41Speaker 5: Hiding in the smoke. Something resembling a translucent disease spider.
- 31:47Speaker 5: Slithers across the ceiling, pulled along by hundreds of legs.
- 31:52Speaker 5: Alien POV. View from above. A crying man in a chair.
- 31:58Speaker 5: Energy crackles throughout the room. But bold lines float from
- 32:02Speaker 5: the man's head. Main cabin. The creature warms towards Idris.
- 32:08Speaker 5: Cliff's mouth falls open, terrified. He whispers.
- 32:12Speaker 4: It's coming at you.
- 32:13Speaker 5: Idris doesn't move. Idris! It slinks closer.
- 32:19Speaker 4: Closer.
- 32:20Speaker 3: Get up!
- 32:21Speaker 5: Idris weeps.
- 32:24Speaker 4: Idris!
- 32:25Speaker 5: The creature dangles from above, and then.
- 32:29Speaker 5: Plop. It falls on him.
- 32:32Speaker 2: Is there something on my head?
- 32:41Speaker 5: Cliff nods in horror. Idris doesn't fight back as the
- 32:45Speaker 5: alien glob slurps and sucks and pulls and rips. The
- 32:49Speaker 5: skin from Idris's scalp dissolves in batches, pieces of his
- 32:53Speaker 5: skull exposed. Appendages burrow into Idris's slumped body, draining every
- 33:00Speaker 5: bit of life force from him.
- 33:02Speaker 3: Womp, womp, womp.
- 33:05Speaker 5: The fire alarm bleats out. Oxygen masks fall from the ceiling.
- 33:10Speaker 5: The bouncing, flailing tubing moves like the horrible creature's limbs.
- 33:15Speaker 5: The alien scurries away. Interior, cockpit, night. A master warning
- 33:21Speaker 5: light flares. An oxygen mask jangles in front of Kevin's
- 33:25Speaker 5: concerned face.
- 33:26Speaker 3: A fire? Jeez, what the hell's going on?
- 33:29Speaker 5: Anita ignores him. She's trying to dissociate, but it's really
- 33:32Speaker 5: hard with the alarm and Kevin's yammering.
- 33:35Speaker 3: Anita, I need you to check it out.
- 33:37Speaker 5: He snaps in front of her face.
- 33:39Speaker 3: Hey, get up and go see what's going on.
- 33:42Speaker 6: You want me to go out there?
- 33:43Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm the pilot and I'm ordering you.
- 33:46Speaker 1: But.
- 33:46Speaker 2: Oh, but what?
- 33:47Speaker 4: But what, huh? You can't because you're a girl?
- 33:49Speaker 3: Is that what you were going to say? No.
- 33:53Speaker 4: It was.
- 33:55Speaker 3: Get up and do your fucking job.
- 33:57Speaker 6: You haven't seen it. You don't know what.
- 33:59Speaker 2: It's a fire on a plane!
- 34:02Speaker 5: Fine! Rising, her shaky legs plead with her not to
- 34:06Speaker 5: do this. Interior, main cabin, night. Cliff backs up. Where
- 34:12Speaker 5: is that fucker?
- 34:14Speaker 4: Mwah, mwah, mwah.
- 34:17Speaker 5: The fire alarm rattles his skull. He tiptoes back. One
- 34:23Speaker 5: step at a time.
- 34:27Speaker 4: Mwah.
- 34:29Speaker 5: Interior, flight crew quarters, night.
- 34:32Speaker 4: Made it.
- 34:36Speaker 5: Sliding in, Cliff shuts the door and looks down at
- 34:39Speaker 5: his piss-soaked pants.
- 34:41Speaker 4: Calm down, pussy.
- 34:46Speaker 5: He presses his ear against the door. All he can
- 34:49Speaker 5: hear is that damn alarm. Interior, main cabin, night. Anita
- 34:54Speaker 5: stalks through the smoke.
- 34:56Speaker 3: Womp, womp, womp.
- 35:00Speaker 5: Idris's... Idris's caved-in head slumps back on his shoulders. His dead,
- 35:13Speaker 5: open eyes stare at her. The plane, making its quick descent,
- 35:17Speaker 5: lurches Idris's body at her. She slaps her hand over
- 35:21Speaker 5: her mouth to keep from screaming. She calms herself before
- 35:25Speaker 5: taking two more steps. When? Something grabs her from behind.
- 35:31Speaker 5: It's Cliff. He forces her into the tiny room. Interior.
- 35:37Speaker 5: Flight crew quarters. Night. Cliff wheels around and shoves Anita
- 35:41Speaker 5: into the chair.
- 35:43Speaker 4: What are you doing?
- 35:44Speaker 6: Kevin made me check on the fire.
- 35:46Speaker 4: Stay here. You don't need to be walking around with
- 35:48Speaker 4: that thing out there.
- 35:49Speaker 5: This is exactly what she wanted to hear.
- 35:52Speaker 6: Thank you.
- 35:56Speaker 5: She motions for him to leave.
- 35:58Speaker 6: I'll open the door when you get back.
- 36:00Speaker 4: I'm not going out there.
- 36:01Speaker 6: Cliff, it's a fire on a plane.
- 36:04Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just smoke from that stupid popcorn machine.
- 36:07Speaker 6: You don't know that.
- 36:08Speaker 4: We'll be down soon. Try to relax. But... I said
- 36:12Speaker 4: shut up.
- 36:13Speaker 3: No, you didn't.
- 36:14Speaker 6: You said relax. I.
- 36:17Speaker 5: He points his gun at her.
- 36:18Speaker 4: I said shut up.
- 36:21Speaker 5: Okay. Interior cockpit night. Surrounded by the Ozark Mountains, the
- 36:28Speaker 5: faint lights of Branson Airport, BBG, emerge. Kevin wipes his
- 36:33Speaker 5: brow and checks his watch.
- 36:34Speaker 3: What is taking so long?
- 36:36Speaker 5: He grabs a handset. Interior, main cabin, night. Through the
- 36:41Speaker 5: PA system, Kevin's voice fills the smoky plane.
- 36:45Speaker 4: Flight crew, prepare for landing.
- 36:47Speaker 5: Interior, flight crew quarters, night. Over the speaker.
- 36:50Speaker 3: Anita, come to the cockpit.
- 36:52Speaker 5: Anita rolls her eyes.
- 36:53Speaker 6: Oh, now he wants me to come to the cockpit.
- 36:56Speaker 5: She rises from her seat, but Cliff pushes her down again.
- 37:00Speaker 4: Day put.
- 37:01Speaker 6: Am I a prisoner?
- 37:02Speaker 4: I'm trying to keep you alive, dumbass.
- 37:05Speaker 5: Interior, cockpit, night. The jet touches down in a flawless landing.
- 37:10Speaker 2: Ladies and gentlemen, I give you.
- 37:12Speaker 5: With a flourish of his arm.
- 37:14Speaker 4: Perfection!
- 37:16Speaker 5: Exterior, Branson Airport, BBG.
- 37:19Speaker 4: Ramp, night.
- 37:21Speaker 5: Gleaming and pristine, the Gulfstream's sleek exterior belies the bloodbath inside. Interior, cockpit, night.
- 37:30Speaker 5: Kevin scrambles out of his seat. On second thought, he
- 37:33Speaker 5: grabs the handset again. Interior, flight crew quarters, night. Over
- 37:38Speaker 5: the loudspeaker.
- 37:39Speaker 2: Okay, we're here.
- 37:40Speaker 3: I'm going to check out on the fire and open
- 37:41Speaker 3: the exits.
- 37:42Speaker 5: Cliff shakes his head.
- 37:44Speaker 4: Great. Another moron.
- 37:46Speaker 5: He holds up his gun, opens the door, steps out. Interior,
- 37:52Speaker 5: outside the cockpit door, night. Cliff presses his face against
- 37:56Speaker 5: the door. The faintest whisper.
- 38:00Speaker 4: Kevin, can you hear me? Yeah, man, what the fuck
- 38:05Speaker 4: is going on?
- 38:08Speaker 5: Interior, cockpit, night. Kevin opens the door. The bellowing of
- 38:12Speaker 5: the fire alarm follows Cliff in. Cliff slams the door
- 38:16Speaker 5: shut behind him, muffling the assault of ringing.
- 38:19Speaker 3: Where's Anita? Is the fire in the galley?
- 38:22Speaker 5: Cliff sighs. He numbers off on his fingers.
- 38:25Speaker 4: One, don't care about the fire. Two, that thing is loose. Three,
- 38:29Speaker 4: everyone but Anita, you, and me is dead.
- 38:32Speaker 5: Kevin hesitates before offering his brilliant response.
- 38:37Speaker 2: Shit.
- 38:42Speaker 4: I'm going to pick up Anita, and we're going to
- 38:44Speaker 4: get off the plane. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
- 38:46Speaker 5: Kevin scans the cockpit for a possible weapon. Nothing but
- 38:50Speaker 5: the fire extinguisher. He clutches it to his chest.
- 38:53Speaker 4: You don't need that.
- 38:55Speaker 3: It's something.
- 38:56Speaker 5: Cliff relents.
- 38:57Speaker 4: Whatever.
- 38:58Speaker 5: And puts a meaty paw on Kevin's shoulder.
- 39:01Speaker 4: Let me go first.
- 39:03Speaker 5: With a series of sacking up breaths, Cliff's out the door.
- 39:07Speaker 5: Interior hallway next to the cockpit, night. Kevin cowers behind
- 39:12Speaker 5: the massive man. Cliff lightly taps on the crew door
- 39:15Speaker 5: with the gun.
- 39:16Speaker 4: We're leaving.
- 39:18Speaker 5: Anita appears, ready, purse on her shoulder. a thump to
- 39:22Speaker 5: the right of Cliff. He spins, wielding the.
- 39:25Speaker 2: 22.
- 39:25Speaker 5: The incessant bleeding of the fire alarm makes it impossible
- 39:28Speaker 5: to hear anything else. Kevin peeks out from behind Cliff's
- 39:22Speaker 5: giant back. Everything seems fine. Rich woodwork. Leather. Blood. Pieces
- 39:25Speaker 5: of Idris's head. Shh! To release the exit door, they
- 39:49Speaker 5: need to press the button at the top right. It's
- 39:52Speaker 5: only a few feet away, but it might as well
- 39:54Speaker 5: be miles. The creature crawls out of Idris's chest. Now
- 40:00Speaker 5: the size of a Labrador retriever.
- 40:02Speaker 4: Oh, fuck.
- 40:04Speaker 5: The creature snaps a melty Idris face his way. Kevin
- 40:07Speaker 5: doesn't move. He contemplates fainting. Anita's screams bring him back.
- 40:13Speaker 1: One scream.
- 40:14Speaker 3: One scream.
- 40:15Speaker 1: One scream.
- 40:17Speaker 5: Anita's scream brings him back. Cliff, seeing an opportunity, nabs
- 40:26Speaker 5: Anita by her hair.
- 40:28Speaker 4: Kevin, all distracted. You grab the door.
- 40:30Speaker 5: Wait, wait, what?
- 40:31Speaker 4: Distracted? Yeah.
- 40:32Speaker 5: He grins down at Anita.
- 40:34Speaker 4: Come on, gorgeous. You know what it's like to be
- 40:36Speaker 4: a piece of meat, don't you?
- 40:38Speaker 5: Cliff directs her body towards the creature.
- 40:40Speaker 3: What are you doing?
- 40:41Speaker 5: Let go of me! She slaps at his giant arm,
- 40:44Speaker 5: trying to break free.
- 40:45Speaker 4: Let go of her, man! Don't worry about her. She's
- 40:48Speaker 4: busy serving dinner. Get the door.
- 40:51Speaker 2: Cliff, stop it!
- 40:53Speaker 4: On the count of three, hit the door.
- 40:55Speaker 5: Anita thrashes, desperate.
- 40:57Speaker 1: One.
- 40:57Speaker 2: No, let go of me!
- 40:59Speaker 4: Two.
- 41:00Speaker 5: Kevin stands frozen. Come on, nod if you're with me.
- 41:03Speaker 5: Kevin slowly nods. Decision made.
- 41:06Speaker 4: Three.
- 41:07Speaker 5: Kevin smashes the fire extinguisher into Cliff's skull.
- 41:10Speaker 4: Oh, what the fuck?
- 41:12Speaker 5: Cliff releases Anita, bringing his hand to the back of
- 41:15Speaker 5: his head. Blood rushing from his scalp. He staggers, desperately
- 41:20Speaker 5: trying to stay upright. Kevin kicks him on top of
- 41:24Speaker 5: the monster.
- 41:25Speaker 1: Ah!
- 41:26Speaker 5: Cliff clambers backward in sheer panic. Kevin smacks the exit
- 41:31Speaker 5: door pad. The door whirs in response. Cliff empties his
- 41:35Speaker 5: weapon into the creature. The alien's body absorbs the bullets,
- 41:45Speaker 5: immediately shrinking to the size of a large house cat.
- 41:49Speaker 5: Out of ammo, Cliff throws the useless gun at the monster. What? What? What? What? What?
- 41:56Speaker 2: What?
- 42:24Speaker 5: Before Cliff's mouth can release its little yowl. The creature
- 42:28Speaker 5: plunges another appendage down his throat. The door and exit
- 42:33Speaker 5: stairs finish their automated unfurling. Kevin reaches for Anita.
- 42:37Speaker 4: Come on!
- 42:38Speaker 5: She grabs his hand, and he yanks her out the
- 42:40Speaker 5: door and down the stairs. End of part one. Excellent job.
- 42:46Speaker 5: I got a couple things.
