Today really marks the first stage of an
unprecedented technological advancement.
We have begun to identify a so-called
goldilocks planet,
these planets that share a similar relationship
with their sun as we have with ours
If a planet's too far away from it's sun, it's too cold.
If it's too close to it's sun, it's too hot.
But for an earthlike planet, the distance is just right.
Potentially perfect
for sustaining life.
We have finally managed to identify one planet
that is the right distance
from it's star to hold water.
And is the right mass to sustain an atmosphere.
Every 24 hours our station in hawaii will
transmit a signal
to LANSAT 7, our deep orbiting satellite,
which will amplify & relay the signal to our targeted
planet which is rather grandly entitled
Planet G.
if there is intelligent life out there,
and they come here,
it's gonna be like Columbus & the Indians.
Only we're the indians.
Ladies and gentlemen,
please prepare to bare witness to the making of history.
Start transmission.
Well it seems as though NASA is setting
up shop right here in our own backyard.
Today the "Beacon Interntional Project" was launched.
Satellite dishes here on Oahu sending
out very powerful signals into deep space,
with an attempt to communicate with anyone...
Another round birthday boy!
A toast,
Happy birthday little brother!
Whishing you successs & growth,
happiness may this be a great year ...
- A great year ...
- It's gonna be a great year ...
- I love you.
- I love you too.
- So in the great Hopper family tradition
this year i'm quoting from coach John Wooden.
"Adversity is the state in which man
most easily becomes aquainted with himself, "
"be especially free of admirers then." Cheers!
- I'm not cheersing to that.
- It's a very good quote for you.
I may be free of admirers right now
but there's still time.
Would you shut up.
Light your cupcake & raise your glass.
- Did you get me that?
- Yes I got you that.
- Thank you. That's very sweet
- You're welcome!
I got this guy, Tony. He said he could get
you a construction job. All you need to do is call him.
- Can I get a beer and a chicken Burrito, please.
- Sorry. The kitchen's closed.
- You gotta call him.
- Give Tony my best...
But I don't need you or Tony's help for that matter.
- well you can call him or join me in the navy
- No.
alright! alright!
Happy birthday!
Blow out the candle and make a wish.
Do not waste a wish on a girl.
Wish for a job, an apartment,
a new alternating belt so i don't
have to drive you everywhere, a job or a...
You said you job twice.
It's my birthday. My wish.
- Alright?
- Please don't waste it.
- You just wasted a wish.
- I'm going in.
- You're not going in.
- How do i look?
Wait let me just fix...
Awesome. Alright princess go get em.
Great start!
- What seems to be the problem?
- I want a chicken burrito.
- Johnny, chicken burrito her.
- It ain't happening.
- Chicken burrito her.
- The kitchen's closed Hopper.
- What's your name?
- I'm hungry.
That's not your name.
If you give me 5 minutes, I will get you your chicken burrito.
Five minutes, starting now.
Chicken burrito time, I'm out.
Chicken burrito, roger that.
Wait! Wait! Hi!
Let's just one twist of the key & we'll be good...
how are you man. How you doing?
- The burritos are right there.
- We're closed.
- We're closed! Too late bro
- It' right there! Please!
- It's late to eat a burrito!
- Too many complex carbs!
- $3.99.
Chicken Burrito!
I brought the Burrito!
I found it!
he's getting back up
Stay down!
I've had it! Look at yourself!
How is it that you screw everything up!
Oh by the way, that girl you were trying to
impress last night, do you know who her father is?
Admiral Shane!
He runs the whole damn fleet.
So now you're messing with job. My life!
- You know that girl? The burrito girl?
- Oh I've always stayed out of your business haven't I?,
Coz i was hoping that maybe one day
you would learn from your mistakes,
- you would grow up, you would mature a bit!
- Is my back alright?
- Argh oh my god my back!
- You're 26 and what have you got?
You've got what? 65 dollars to your name!
I got tazed!
A car that doesn't start, you're living on my couch!
- Those things work?
- Man look at yourself.
- Oh My God.
- As of now,
as of right this second,
there's a new dynamic at play.
And this dynamic is the final
from here on out until I state otherwise.
there'll be no more debate,
no more discussion, no more compromise.
It's me speaking you listening,
me saying you doing.
Do you understand that?
It's time for a new course of action.
A new direction. A game change.
You're joining me in the navy.
Live! Local!
This is Hawaii news now.
Thousands of sailors on dozens of
ships are coming to hawaii for RIMPAC.
RIMPAC is the world's largest
multinational maritime exercise
RIMPAC is a militarty ballet of 14 navies.
20,000 navy personnel...
Coorporation & callibration amongst the countries,
is the goal.
Relationship building is the key.
Not all the action is taking place out on
the water there will also be sporting events here on land.
Forget world cup this is the RIMPAC cup final!
It's another beautiful day here in Hawaii as ususal!
...brewing on the field as the scrapy
USA team butting heads with Japan.
Score is two nil Japan.
The US has been trailing all day. Captain Alex Hopper
has got to do something to rally the troops here.
- Turn it up!
Big save by Stone Hopper...
He is in excellent condition today!
What's wrong with you drama queen!
Get up princess! Come on!
USA's 40 squares the ball over to No. 6, Alan.
Hopper! Goooaaal!!
The US is finally on the board showing some signs of life
putting the score 2 to 1 Japan.
Can the US tie with Japan?
- Time, Time! Time!
- A minute left!
Hey Alex! It's coming your way.
Stone Hopper's placed it perfectly!
Come on, Alex! Get the ball!
Hopper's underneath it and onside.
- Hey ref!
A penalty kick
has been awarded to the United States.
Nagate mad contact with Hopper inside the box.
By contact you mean Nagate kicked him in the face.
- You alright?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
Stone Hopper has come up the field.
I'm fine. I don't need your help.
- I don't need your help.
- Bronson's gonna take it.
- Bronson! He's gonna take it.
- What do you mean, Bronson? Negative! I'm fine!
- Bronson, you're gonna take this!
- Bronson, don't move.
- Bronson, come here!
- Bronson, you move one more step you're dead.
Do you wanna die today? Do you wanna die?
Good choice.
- He's defintely concussed.
- I've got it.
- Did you just threaten one of my CO's?
- It's okay. It's okay.
Looks like it's going to be his little brother Alex Hopper.
If I were Stone I would've picked another shooter. I'm skceptical whether Hopper...
Concentrate! Focus!
There are two kinds of idiots Hopper
One who looks away he kicks,
other looks away he doesn't kick.
Which idiot are you?
I'm the idiot who's gonna kick it
through your keepers face.
Get ready for overtime.
All eyes on Hopper.
He could send this into overtime.
And here we go! If Hopper...
Hopper sends it flying over the crossbar.
Nowhere near the goal.
Typical.
What a heartbreak for the US.
It was a very poor attempt by the
obviously injured Alex Hopper.
He refused to come out of the game
and his stubborness cost the US.
Congratulations to Japan.
Our 2012 RIMPAC Cup winners.
The Final as we sign off:
Japan 2, USA 1.
- Are you ready for this?
- Born.
- You sure?
- Never been more sure of anything in my life.
What are you gonna say?
I'm gonna walk up to him man to man,
look him straight in the eyes.
- With what words?
- My words
Ok.
Sir...
You're daughter is the best thing
that has ever happened to me.
She's smart, kind, beautiful, funny and
I'm madly in love with her.
It would be an honor to have your
permission to marry her.
- I love you
- I love you too.
First off I would like to welcome you all to
the RIMPAC international naval war games.
And I'ld like to welcome you on-board the greatest
fighting ship in american naval history,
the MIGHTY MO. The USS MISSOURI.
Shit!
- Hopper, your cover!
- Keeping you on your toes.
Hopper! Let's go, come on! Hopper.
That way's the Admiral. I knew that.
I knew that. We knew that.
The USS Missouri was the final battleship to
be completed by the United States,
before being decomisioned and replaced
by a more modern fleet of vessels,
like Destroyers.
What's the diference between a battleship and a destroyer?
You see...
Battleships are great ships,
But they're kinda like dinosaurs.
They're designed to take hits.
Kinda like a floating punching bag.
But then there are destroyers which are just awesome.
They're designed to dish it out like the Terminator!
- Are you a captain?
- No he's not a captain because he's always late.
- Come on!
- I fight the ship.
- Come on!
- Which is even better!
- Listen get it done. Get it done.
- Babe it's a formality. I'm all over it.
Ok! Go!
We have with us today,
veterans from the MISSOURI.
Who have served on her, some going back to WWII.
Examples of the finest men to have ever served in any navy.
Lt. Hopper, what an honor.
Thank you for joining us.
Good to be here.
And now as we prepare to embark in this outstanding...
- I'm nervous.
- Shades off.
...I would like the commanding officers to come to the stage.
Captain Nagata, Japan.
- Konnichiwa!
- Captain Lou, Malaysia.
- Allo! Allo!
It's so close. Like the way we say it.
He hates me.
He doesn't hate you! Shut up, shut up.
- Captain Jacks, Australia!
- G'Day!
Shut up!
- Captain Zhao, Singapore!
- G'Day.
- Shut up!
- G'Day.
A special acknowledgment to Commander
Stone Hopper, US Navy...
Stay calm. Knock em out.
who along with his outstanding crew and ship
had the highest overall rating last year.
Shades off Hopper!
- Commander.
- Thank you Admiral.
Welcome everybody,
it's really great to see you all here today.
Especially you gentlemen.
It's a true honor.
Me and my crew are gonna have to
be on our toes this year.
Because your ships look outstanding
and your men look ready.
So good luck out there!
Be safe! Keep chargin!
He loves his daughter. She loves you,
he's gonna respect that.
- Hey, Mike!
- Admiral!
You remember Sam?
It's an obsolete tradition.
Just asking for permission.
- Tell me that came from...
- Stop.
- Sam is a physical therapist.
- Stop worrying about this...
and walk up and do what you gotta do.
- Hello Hopper!
- Why are you here?
This is gonna be sweet!
- I was within the rules.
- Really?
Were you within the rules when
you kicked me in the face?
Isn't there some place more important
you need to be right now.
- He hates the man!
- Well that seems a bit juvenile, wouldn't you say?
You go mess with him and see what happens!
Why?
Would it be funny if i punched
you in the face? Would that be funny?
- Stop it!
- Chicken!
- Kentucky Fried Chicken!
- Yeap. I love it. Two piece...
- You look like Colonel Sanders actually.
- He was a handsom man.
- Good job out there Dad!
- What do you want?
Hopper needs 5 minutes of your time.
- That's enough!
- What do you mean that's enough?
Stop it! Isn't there something more
important you should be doing right now?
- Three minutes, tops.
- Thank you, I love you. Thank you daddy.
I love you too.
- He's gonna smash my face in.
- He's not gonna smash your face in.
Oh my god.
Sir it would be an honour...
Sir! sir! sir!
Give me your permission...
It would be an honor to have your permission...
Sir, give me your permission what's your deal?
It would be a thankful honor to have your permission...
to honor your hand...
What?
Oh my god
Sir,
May i please marry your daughter?
She's everything i have and i love her.
Talking to yourself Mr. Hopper?
Yea I was.
I was actually talking about you Nagata.
Sir, it was a fluke accident.
The bathroom floor was wet.
I began to fall, Cpt. Nagata
kindly reached out to help.
Our heads go bang!
We fall back. Bang again.
- Just like the great Jerry Lewis.
- Jerry Lewis?
- Did he just say Jerry Lewis?
- Yes, sir.
Are you kidding me?
"The bell boy"
and "The Nutty Professor".
- Very good movies.
- He's a great humanitarian, sir.
You both think this a joke then
you're very much mistaken.
This will not happen again.
Do i make myself clear?
- Yes, sir!
- Yes, sir!
Gentlemen.
Give me a minute with Mr Hopper.
What is wrong with you?
You've got skills, but i have never ever
seen a man waste them like you.
"Keep the ship out of the surf and spray.."
"... or we will plunge to desturction."
Homer, sir.
The fact that you know that
infuriates me beyond words.
What my daughter sees in you
is a great mystery to me.
You're a very smart individual
with very weak character, leadership
and decision making skills.
Do you have anything to say to me?
Anything?
Negative, sir.
Enjoy these naval exercises Hopper.
They're likely to be your last.
Dismissed.
- Is there anything i can do to help?
- Negative.
- If you wana talk about anything...
- I dont.
- If you change you mind and you do wanna talk about...
- I wont.
Roger that.
Contact Efron 1.
Commence anti-submarine warfare exercises.
Commence all operations.
Good afternoon, Samson!
Welcome to Day One of the
RIMPAC Naval War Games.
We are here to sharpen our skills
as a team.
As your weapons officer,
Let me remind you that
this is a combat vessel ...
and we will excel in our commanding control.
I want everyone to stay frosty.
We're gonna be close maneuvering with 13 nations out here.
We are here to crush
every other ship.
I'm excited
to see what we learn.
We not here in this weapons
room to learn.
Be safe out there and look out for each other
and keep charging.
If we return to Pearl without having outperform
every other ship on that ocean
I will personally ...
Yo Saunders, ever been in a department run by some
kind of Donald Trump/Mike Tyson mutant combo.
- What was that petty officer Raikes?
- Nothing, sir.
I swear you said Donald Trump.
Wanna calrify?
I think I heard a Myke Tyson as well.
If you did,
it was only in reference to the fact the you both
project great physical intensity, sir.
That's flattering.
Hopper! A helo headed for the Samson.
Make sure your ass is on it.
- Why?
- I don't know why. Just make sure your on it!
Copy sir.
Damn!
Scorpio 1-4
Lt Hopper is on board.
- I just got off the phone with the JAG.
- And?
They are probably gonna
kick you out of the Navy.
- When?
- The day we get back.
- From Rimpac?
- Yeap.
- You've gotta make some calls.
- Some calls?
Who do I call to teach you humility?
I'm sorry, I dont' have that number.
I just don't get it man.
You got so much potential.
I'm sorry you have to deal with this.
And I'm sorry I let you down.
Stand up nice and tall. I want you to focus on
that green marker right in the middle of your back.
Where do you think I'm paying attention to?
- Keep your feet together.
- My feet can't get any closer.
- Stand up tall!
- Alright, I've had enough of this.
- Keep going. Just a little more.
- Turn the damn thing off!
- Come on, we're just about there.
- Turn it off now!
I'm your new physical therapist.
- I'm sensing alot of anger.
- Very persceptive of you.
- Is there anything besides anger in there, Mick?
- Not much.
Your last therapist says that you lost the
will to fight. Is that accurate?
I lost my fight when I lost my legs.
You realise you're still the same
man that won the "Golden Gloves"
at 22, Bronze Star in Afganistan?
Same man.
I'm half a man,
and half a man ain't enough to be a soldier.
That's all I've ever known.
- Alright. Let's go! We're gonna take a walk.
- No we're not!
Legs on!
You're doing pretty good for
a guy who doesn't wanna be hiking.
My dog Mustard would climb this mountain.
Great you and Mustard can go and you can make
some memories of Mt. Kaia, sounds like fun.
- Mustard's dead. Mustard got hit by a dump truck.
- Sorry.
I'm over it.
Hey. I thought you would be out of range by now?
I have around five minutes left.
- How is it?
- It's fine.
I'm sorry. I messed up.
And I'm going to talk to your
father as soon as I get back.
- Stop messing things up, ok?
- Copy that. I love you.
I love you.
- What is it Parker?
- Take a look at this.
Nice one. It's a joke right?
I don't think so.
My God!
Cal!
Cal!
Cal!
- I got some weird activity on all the radar screens.
- Weird?
Yeah, man really weird.
Oh, arg, Dr Nogrady is on the phone
for you too.
That is weird. Seriously? Dr. Nogrady.
Lead with that next time okay, Danny.
You gotta start prioritising your information.
You gotta tell me "1,2,3"
you don't start with "n". Know what i mean?
I'm not saying your a boob
but his is like boobish behavior.
Stop.
- Hi, Dr Nogrady!
- Are you seeing what I'm seeing?
- The incoming tracks.
- Correct.
- I've got 5 distinct objects
- 5 distinct objects...
that are moving in formation.
They're locked in on my signal.
They're headed straight for me.
- Correct.
- Uh maybe we should call NASA.
NASA have called us.
They're on the phone right now.
- Good morning, Mr Sabata.
- NASA?
We're tracking something splitering
off from the main group.
That's not splitting off.
That thing is breaking apart.
Has anyone called the Chinese.
Because this is no meteor...
Yes. We've checked.
It's not the Russians, it's not the Chinese
Maybe we should call the Air Force because
they might wanna fuel up their jets...
The Air Force is on the line.
It appears the event is headed your way.
Prepare yourself!
Roger that. How would you suggest
that I prepare myself sir?
Brace!
Let's all be seated.
I'm hoping somebody here can
explain this to me.
Mr. Secretary. Four of the five objects landed
in the Pacific Ocean
The fifth one appeared to have broken apart,
we're making significant contact with Hong Kong.
But other places were also affected,
Scotland, Germany, France , even Iowa.
- So what is it?
- Well sir, at this point we're working on a couple theories.
- And you are whom sir?
- I'm with NASA.
Well what is NASA present in this room for?
We're looking at the very real possibility
that this is legitimate extrateristrial contact.
It appears that it originated from Gliese solar system ,
- Home of Planet G.
- You are saying
that we sent out a signal and we got back
an alien response?
Sir, we just got word from Pearl,
They believe whatever made impact with Hong Kong
has also made impact with the Pacific Ocean.
Where in the Pacific?
Aproximately 150 miles south of where we are
right now sir.
It should be right there but we're not
seeing anything.
Get me the Samson.
Base course 2-2-0. Speed 25.
Captain. Samson has ordered us to
change course to Formation One.
Captain on the bridge.
As casualty reports come in it is still unclear
exactly what it was that hit Hong Kong.
It isn't anything from this planet.
- How do we know that?
- Because the Chinese have sampled it.
It's made of a material that doesn't
exist in the periodic table.
It's literally not of this earth!
The only element they've been able
to identify is Lawrensium.
Lawrensium?
- You gotta stop tapping!
- You're tapping, your're the loud one!
Looking at the grid patterns, it's something in the
neighborhood of solar paneling, communications paneling.
Maybe some kind of communication unit.
Communications?
Who's communicating what?
And to who?
What the heck is that?
Hey bridge starboard lookout,
We've got an unknown surface contact
bearings 2-3-2 true approximately 8,000 yards.
- Sir!
- Yeap.
- You may wanna come take a look at this.
- I am looking at it Mr. Strogo.
On the radar sir. Something very peculiar.
- That's the John Paul Jones right?
- Yes sir.
- Myoko?
- Yes sir it is.
Why don't i see...
.. see that?
Combat Captain.
I need visual on the bearing 2-3-7 on the horizon.
What do you hold a that bearing?
Birdge T.O, I've got nothing at 2-3-7.
I'm looking right at it Mr. Hopper. Find me something.
- Scope! 2-3-7. What've we got?
- Stand by.
Negative sir. Scope's clear. I got nothing.
- Taylor, did you break this son of a bitch?
- No sir. I didn't do anything to it sir.
- You know I'll throw your ass of this ship?
- I know you will sir .
- I got something sir. On my camera.
- What is it?
I don't know?
Is this some kind of exercise.
Probably.
Unknown vessel in the vicinity of 1-5 degrees
Requesting status communication on my
vessel on VFH channel 16

John Paul Jones, this Samson, Charlie Oscar.
John Paul Jones Charlie Oscar.
I'ld like you to send a team over
and take a closer look.
- No problem. We'll get a team in the water right away.
- Roger.
Tell you what boys. This is a head stomper.
What is it?
A box of cargo? Chinese?
- I don't know?
- A yatch? A satellite?
Beast, I didn't know 5 seconds ago
and I don't know now.
This is the US Navy Warship John Paul Jones
I'm attempting to communicate with you.
Prepare to be boarded.
- You ever seen anything like this?

super secret navy surprise exercise?
Coz if so, they've gone way too far.

There are no survivors in the water.
Targets are holding defensive formation.
Where's the captain? Where is he?
- What happened?
- Captain and XO (Executive Officer) are dead!
- What?
- They're dead! CO and XO are dead!
Who's in charge?
- Who's next fall senior?
- You are.
It's your ship sir. You're senior officer, sir.
Sir if you would please just give me an order,
i don't know what to do sir.
We're going in. Full attack. That's an order.
- Attack sir?
- Yes! You wanted an order! That's an order!
Let's go!
- You heard him.
- Aye aye sir!
Ready all guns.
Firing tools are offline. I need three minutes.
Tell Nagata I'm going with or without him.
This is crazy! He needs help!
- Sir you really want to attack this thing?
- Yes, yes i do!
Get ready to fire!
- Myoko is hit sir!
- Are the weapons ready?
Sir they've killed everything that's fired on them!
Get the guns online and we ram this thing!
They killed my brother and every man on his ship.
- We have no weapons to attack with sir.
- Then set course to 3-1-0.
That's a collision course!
Sir, there are sailors in the water!
Get the guns online and we're gonna ram this thing!
Sir, the Myoko is sinking. Sir please!

- Hopper.
- Yo are you kidding me? Hopper's running the ship?
- This is bullshit! We're all gonna die!
What the hell are those things!?
What is that thing!?
- You got anything
- Negative on all frequencies.
Oh shit!
We're going down!
Sir, I can't explain this.
We've lost communication with everyone
on the otherside of the barrier.
We can't get in and they can't get out.
The field, whatever it is, it extends
about 300,000 feet in altitude
and has depth of about 2 nautical miles.
And we are in contact with Admiral Shane of the Pacific fleet
but right now our navy is effectively trapped outside the area.
So we have nobody in there?
Well sir, we have 3 guided missile
destroyers still unaccounted for.
So it's conceivable we do have somebody inside.
Well who?
Captain! Captain!
They need help!
I must help them!
Are you OK? Are you OK?
My grandmother could climb this mountain.
It's a start Mick.
- What was that?
- I'm not sure.
What are you guys doing up here?
I need you to get off this mountain right now.
Wait, what's going on? Why?
- The island's under attack.
- Attack, by who?
I don't know. People are using the word "alien".
- Aliens?
We don't know. Whatever it is took out the Marine base
and all roads leading to this mountain have been destroyed.
Cellphones, radio, internet. Everything is shut down.
The Navy's engaged just off from the coast.
- The Navy?
- I need you and your friend off of this mountain right now.
Come on, let's go!
Vic, leave your car here. It'll block the road.
Where you going?
Mick! Where are you going?
- I ain't ever seen an alien.
Have you ever seen an alien?
- Mick!
Don't leave me alone.
Woah sole! What the hell was that?
Hey Fizz, did you see that?
- Looked like a jet.
- Well I ain't never...
Sir, we need you.
- We need you now.
- I can't.
If you can't? Who can?
Captain.
Where did we find it?
One of their transporters must have crashed over the island.
There was debris everywhere. Thomas and Potts
just fished him right outta the water with a grappling hook.
Look I told them it was a bad idea, but they
kept yanking and i kept telling them no...
Oh damn!
Beast flashlight.
My dad said they'ld come.
He said it my whole life.
He said we ain't alone.
He said one day we'll find them or they'll find us.
Know what else he said?
He said...
"I hope I ain't around when that day comes."
That is not dead!
It's not dead!
- I've got a bad feeling about this.
- What bad feeling?
Like "we're gonna need a new planet" kind of bad feeling.
Medical casualty. C-53 2 men down
It's still on the ship.
Lock down the ship!
- Is everyone alright?
- We're good!
Is everyone accounted for?
Just heard something on level 4.
Raikes, up.
Move! Move!
- What do you see?
- Do you see it?
- No sir!
- I've got nothing sir!
- How is he?
- Not good sir! Not good!
- You two, get him to medical now!
- Yes sir!
Raikes, you're with me! Let's go!
Get outta here!
Yo! Hey!
Raikes! Get your ass to CIC!
Now!
Come on!
Raikes, you better be there!
Come on, come on.
Mahalo mother...!
We gotta get off this mountain.
The cop left the keys on his belt.
You gotta go down and get em.
You can do it.
Now!
This is an emergency call! Can anyone hear me?
Radio check! Can anyone hear me? Over.
- Wait up! Wait up don't leave...
- Stop right there!
- Don't shoot! Don't shoot!
- Who are you?
I'm Cal Zapata! We sent out a beacon...
Oh shit! Is he a cyborg! Are you guys with them?
He's human. Can you please put the gun down?
Mick! Put your gun down.
I told them something like this could happen.
I said it was gonna be like Columbus and
the Indians, conquistadors and incas...
... they said no it'll be sweet.
They killed my grad students.
- Ok! Calm down!
- I can't...
Slow. Slow. Sit down!
Slow breaths.
- You're freaking him out, Mick!
- I doubt it takes much to freak him out.
We need the marines, we need the army.
We need all of them.
It is the strong belief of the Chinese that
what crashed into Hong Kong
was some sort of communications ship.
So you're saying a flying telephone cratered
and took out 25,000 people.
What I'm saying is that our visitors seem
extrodinarily concerned with
establishing a line of communication home.
If they've lost their communications ship,
how could they do that?
The same way we did.
Our communications station in Hawaii has
the ability to send a message to deep space,
by the LandSat 7 satellite.
I believe it's for that asset they've
domed the island.
We're looking at a extinction level event.
The most critical part of any military operation,
to establish communications,
reinforcements,
rescue organization.
Are you saying ET wants to phone home?
That would be incredibly, incredibly bad.
I mean so far only 5 ships have made contact.
If 5 ships could do this,
what do you think 50 could do or
Sir, if I could just have a minute?
Just give me one second.
- Why am I staring at a lizard?
- Coz this is my pet lizard sir, Penelope the Third.
- And?
- They have the exact same eyes.
You've got 15 seconds. Go.
Ok, so I put the helmet on, and the helmet
is just basically extreme sunglasses,
and some hydration
and some oxygen.
and bunch of other stuff I don't understand .
We took Penelope to the beach one time.
Which was a terrible idea.
She went absolutely crazy because she
couldn't handle the sunlight.
You see. I don't think they can handle
the sunlight either.
- Did you try anything else on?
- Negative, sir. Just the helmet.
Scientist have confirmed that there was
a UFO landing in the Pacific Ocean,
off the coast of Hawaii.
Today I want to update the American people on what
we know about the situation in Hawaii.
First we are bringing all available
resources...
The news has sparked global unrest
among the population
unleashing and unprecedented wave of chaos across the world
Many governments have declared marshall law.
Scramble the jets admiral!
We need to get in there!
I'm far more aware than you of
the need to get inside there.
But wasting more lives will not help.
Want me to send another plane?
I'll do it the second you sit your ass
in the co-pilot seat, sir!
- Are they transmitting?
- They could be, but it wouldn't do them any good.
There's no satellite to receive the transmission.
We beam to LandSat 7.
- What's Landsat 7 ?
- It's a deep space satellite.
It only orbits into range once, every 24 hours.
- When's the satellite in position?
- 8:43 AM.
We got about 5 hours and they'll use
it to slingshot their transmission.
- Slingshot where?
- I don't know. Whereever it is they're from.
Pearl Harbor here.
We're approximately here.
And they, whatever they are, they're somewhere in the middle.
We're trapped in here.
What we know right now is we can't
target them unless we have a plain line of sight.
Without radar we have no way to track them.
- Correct?
- Correct.
But I don't think they can see us either.
- Why?
- Because we are still alive.
Ok! So they can't see us and we can't see them
and we have no way to hit them from a safe distance.
There is a way.
A way?
A way of seeing them without seeing them.
You're going to reference "Art of War" right now?
What are suppose to fight the enemy where they aren't?
Move like water?
Except I've read that thing like 6 times
and it makes no sense.
That book is Chinese.
- Still makes no sense.
- My way is much more simple.
We've been doing it to America for 20 years.
- Water displacement.
- How do you track water displacement?
- Tsunami buoys.
- Tsunami buoys?
You have them surrounding the islands
transmitting displacement data,
we hack into the transmissions, form a grid.
- We can't get anything without radar.
- I don't need radar.
Just the radio frequecies.
Turn off radar please.
- Who is this guy?
- Chief Moore.
Sir!
- Secure Spy!
- Securing spy sir.
Display NOAA data. (National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Admin)
- NOAA data?
- Yes, correct.
You heard him, display NOAA data.
- What the hell is that?
- It's a buoy.
If it get's hit by a wave, it transmits a signal.
Bring up chart block.
Chart block. Bring it up.
So we can track without radar.
We would practice it as a contingency plan.
- You dirty, cheating, snakey...
- Rough world.
I like it.
Captain!
My chair is your chair sir.
My brother would have done the same.
- How should we get a hold of Hopper.
- Who's Hopper?
He's the Tactical Actions Officer on
an Arleigh Burke class destroyer.
It has the resources that can take this entire mountain out.
Great. That makes a lot of sense.
Let's call him.
We can't. Everything is jammed.
They're using an electromagnetic field
to block our signals,
it's more like a pulse.
Not a brick wall. There's gaps, ok?
From inside the barrier, we might be able
to get a call out.
If I could get to my spectrum analyzer then ,
theoretically we could find a frequency
that could broadcast...
Do you have a piece of equipment that
can make a call?
Yeah.
- Get it!
- Well i can't because it's down there,
- in that nest of aliens.
- You're gonna go get it.
- No.
- Yes.
We are looking for patterns
of water displacement.
That bouy's underwater.
That's a ship.
- Get on your gun.
- Sir.
- Target Echo 1-1.
- Roger. Echo 1-1.
- Ready to fire.
- When we fire, they will know where we are.
FIRE!
- Orly, anything?
- Negative, sir! It's a miss!
It's heading towards us!
You ready?
I'm sorry, there's no possible way I'm
going down there.
- I don't posses that kind of courage.
- Right now you're going to acquire that courage
or I'm going to break my steel leg
off of your ass.
You feel me?
I feel you.
Go! Now!
Acquiring courage.
Acquiring courage.
I need
What?
- Foxtrot 2-4.
- Foxtrot 2-4. Ready to fire.
FIRE!
- Orly, anything?
- Negative, sir.
Stupid ninkumpoop idea.
There's another one!
Incoming! Incoming!
Sir they're coming from both directions!
Engines! Back full!
Enemy fire!
- India 3-7!
- India 3-7!
- Loaded!
- Second coordinates! Romeo 2-6.
Romeo 2-6!
Sir, we're hot over here!
Missiles good to go.
Let's light em up Cpt Nagata!
Captain Nagata!
FIRE!
Holy shit! Hit sir! Hit!
This is a call for help!
Any warship or any military personnel
please respond. Over.
- Any station..
- This is the USS John Paul Jones.
Identify yourself and your position!
Over.
Hopper! Hopper!
- Sam? Are you okay? Where are you?
- I'm ok.
Listen. They are here at the satellite array at Saddle Ridge.
Do you copy?
They're going to transmit a signal
and establish communication.
You need to destroy the facility.
We have 4 hours.
Hopper!
Can you hear me?
- Babe! You need to get out of there.
- Hopper! Hopper!
- They're gone! They're gone.
- We better get gone too.
I'm thinking an Arleigh Burke class destroyer's
about to rain hell on this mountain top.
You ready to kill another one?
- Tango 1-9!
- Tango 1-9! Loaded.
- Whisky 2-5!
- Whisky 2-5!
- Raikes, can you get a track on the ship?
- Negative.
It's moving all over the place.
I can't get a line on it.
- Sucker's really jumping around.
- Very intelligent.
- What time is sunrise?
- 40 minutes, sir.
Let's take these bastards somewhere
they don't wanna go.
ALl hands to battle stations ready.
I need to know when we round this point
if we're gonna hold it tight.
Right around Diamond Head here.
There's a brutal current there.
It'll take a miracle to keep her off the reef.
- Orly, Is it possible? Can you do it?
- It's not impossible, Sir. I can try.
- But I don't know...
- Can you do it? Yes or no?
Contact is 7 miles out and closing fast.
Yes sir, I can do it.
Captain Nagata,
how good is your aim?
Excellent.
- Alright let's start this turn!
- Aye sir, hard left!
Hard left, sir!
- Sarge how we doing?
- We're on the reef!
Orly, you're way too close! Go left!
Easy.
We're about to kiss these rocks, Orly!
Orly!
- Where did you learn to shoot?
- I'm not sure how to say in English.
Natsu Camp. Summer camp.
- How about now?
- Still too tight!
- I can see fish Orly! Come on man!
- Contact 2 miles out.
- Contact. ETA 21 seconds.
- Summer Camp.
Contact 700 yards out.
Summer camp?
- Champion! When I was 12.
- Are you kidding me?
Here we go.
Holy!
On my mark.
Three.
Two.
One.
Light em up!
Boom!
Woooo!!!
- Status of guns.
- Sir they're bringing up all the rounds from lower decks.
Sir!
Clear the bridge! Clear the bridge!
Shit!
Orly! Get up! Let's go!
Go! Go! Go!
Stand up! Come on!
Raikes! Hey, Raikes! Here! Come on!
Here!
Come on! We have to jump!
That's the John Paul Jones!
That's Hopper.
Relax, Sam!
I'm seeing a lot of life boats in the water.
You said the satellite will be in
position in 3 hours?
Yeap, that's correct.
So if they miss it, they have to wait.
- My uplink never misses. It's not gonna miss.
- How are your driving skills?
- What do you mean? My driving skills are horrible.
- Not your driving. Sam!
- How are your driving skills?
- Good.
Let's see if we can't buy the
world another day.
- Who talks like that?
- Just get in the vehicle. Let's go.
I'm not getting in. This is your show now.
I don't have a death wish.
Thank you very much.
Bye everyone.
Stop! Stop!
This is my property.
It doesn't end like this.
What do you want us to do, Hopper?
We have no ship left.
We have one.
We've got a battleship.
Are you crazy. That's a museum.
Not today.
This ship is 70 years old.
It's totally outdated.
The firing systems are all analog.
The engines haven't been started in a decade.
Which would be fine, except they're steam
which I have no idea how to fire up.
and even if i had a users manual
and 6 weeks to go through it all
we still don't have enough crew to fire it up.
I don't know what you're thinking, sir.
- Is everyone alright?
- Yes sir. We're okay.
You men have given so much
to your country,
and no-one has the right to ask any of you.
But I'm asking.
- What do you need son?.
- I need to borrow your boat.
Son!
Sir!
What the hell you gonna do? Stand there and stare at me?
Get your goddamn eye on that spotter!
Eye on spotter, sir!
- Been working on a destroyer haven't you?
- Yes sir!
- Are you ready to play with the big boys?
- Oh yes sir!
- Come on, we need the help.
- Awesome
Best cover your ears.
Purrs like kitten!
Bridge, Tanker Joe. I got 8 boilers hot.
Ready to rock & roll sir!
How we looking on fuel?
Just enough for a maintenance run.
- Ordinance?
- I gathered what we can,
- it's not much.
- Alright. Let's get her to sea. We got work to do!
Roger that.
- All engines ahead flat!
- All engines ahead flat!
All engines ahead flat! Aye sir!
- You good?
- Good sir! Good sir!
Good.
Status at turret 1?
Turret, barrel, armed!
- Status at Turret 2?
- Armed!
- Status at Turret 3?
- Ready to rock & roll!
Port side armed.
- Sir, are we really firing on Oahu?
- Sure looks that way.
Holy shit.
Saddle Ridge will be in weapons range in 5 minutes.
Whoa brother. Somebody's gonna kiss the donkey.
Hopper!
- I didn't think that one moved.
- Me neither.
My God! Are you kidding me?
"Art of War"
Fire control, weapons status.
- Aimed at target.
- Train all three turrets to 2-1-0.
- Sir that's the wrong direction.
- I'm well aware of that, Raikes!
- What the hell's he doing?
- Losing his mind all over again.
- Hard left rudder!
- Hard left, aye sir!
- Draw port anchor!
- What?
Drop it now!
We're gonna die!
We are gonna die!
You're gonna die. I'm gonna die.
We're all gonna die.
Just not today.
- Let's drop some lead on those mother...
- FIRE!
Reload! Reload!
- Reset! Secure the hatchet!
- Port side ready!
Release the anchor!
Incoming! Incoming!
- Are you alright?
- They ain't gonna sink this battleship. No way.
HIT IT!
Everything you got!
I want every available plane on
this ship in the air! Now!
- I can't believed that worked!
- Yea, Art of War.
Fight the enemy where they aren't.
After all these years, it finally just clicked.
- That's not what it means.
- Really?
Not even close!
Come on!
Shit!
My leg's stuck.
Mick!
- Status, weapons.
- Turret 3 is down!
We got one round of high explosive back at turret 3.
Tell them to have it ready when you get there.
I got this.
Beast, update. I need that round.
You need to bring it to turret 2.
Sir?
Turret 2 is 500 feet away!
This round weighs over 1000 pounds!
How do you expect us to get it there?
Help!
Raikes, get to the gun plot. Finger on the trigger!
Yes sir.
Easy! Easy!
Get outta here!
- We gotta go.
- I can't!
- Calm down! Ok?
- Ok!
I'm gonna friggin save us!
- Armed Turret 1!
- Coordinates!
- 3-3-0!
- Elevation!
There! Go!
Let's go!
- He's armed!
- You better not be up there.
Let's go! Come on!
Hopper!
We only have one round left, right?
Yea.
It's been an honor serving with you captain.
The honor was mine.
- Fire.
- Fire!
Locked on target!
We take great pride in honoring the many
men and women who demonstrated,
exceptional gallantry,
in the face of over-whelming enemy force.
Valor and courage were exhibited by so many,
and I cannot honor them all.
It is my great privilege to recognize
those few whose actions
deserve special acknowledgment.
Lt-Col, United States Army retired,
Mick Canales.
President of the United States takes great
pleasure in presenting the Navy Cross
to Commander Stone Hopper.
For extraordinary heroism.
Receiving this award,
on behalf of his brother,
Lt Commander Alex Hopper.
Stand fast, Mr. Hopper.
It is my great pleasure, to present you
with the Silver star, for your exceptional heroism
and gallantry in combat operations.
And I look forward to seeing you at sea
on a ship of your own command soon.
Thank you.
- Come on, take the picture Beast.
- Say "Navy"!
- Navy!
I'm impressed, Hopper!
You ready to get your ass on that
big grey monster, get out to Coronato.
- Get your hands dirty with the big boys?
- Yes sir.
- You think you got what it takes?
- I hope so sir.
- Call me, Hopper!
- It just might be too much sleep though sir.
- Too much sleep for you huh?
- Yes sir.
We'll have to see about that!
Come on, Hopper! Cosy up to Nagata. You look so cute.
- You guys make a great couple!
- Are we dating now?
- Say "Navy"!
- No i don't know!
- Thank you.
- Sorry!
- Congratulations.
- Thank you. How are you?
- Good. You?
- I love you.
I love you.
- I'm a luck guy, you know that?
- Which is why it would be the perfect time
- for you to talk to my dad.
- Where is he?
- I wish he was right here. I wish he was standing right here.
- Two minutes.
Oh it's perfect coz look!
My wish came true honey. Go get em!
Thumbs up. That helps.
- Sir!
- What is it?
I want you to know that I'm in love Sam.
and I am asking your permission to
marry your daughter.
- No!
- Thank you sir! I mean it's...
- What?
- No.
Sir...
- I saved the world?
- Saving the world is one thing, Hopper!
- My daughter is quite another.
- Ye, but...
No means no, Hopper!
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm late for lunch.
Think I'll have a Chicken Burrito.
A Chicken Burrito?
Sir!
Come along, Hopper! We'll discuss the terms of your
surrender over a meal.
Yes sir.
She told you about that?
