Earth: Final Conflict s05e07 Episode Script
Guilty Conscience
Previously on Gene Roddenberry's Earth Final Conflict What's an upscale broad like Palmer want with a serial killer? What else learn how to kill the unkillable? I can't let you do this! Innocent people will continue to die until we find a way to terminate this parasite.
Man power is our problem not my complaisancy.
If you want to dominate the human race, you need to create more hybrids.
So what's your Machiavellian purpose in all this? - Power of course! - Over what, a planet of hybrids? You nailed him.
I don't believe this.
It's got to be some way to kill them.
Zack, there you are.
Good to see you.
Come on, sit down.
Something wrong? Are you OK? No, not really.
Well, sit.
Easy.
Look, I'm sorry I haven't called you, I really wanted to but after you left Doors, nobody with the company was supposed to talk to you.
- I was afraid.
- It's all right.
I I understand.
And then those bloodsuckers at Tenzer Dynamics stored me away.
Well, I'm sorry to ear that you're not happy there.
You You know I can always make some calls.
I'm not talking about the job.
Damn it! I'm know what your doing.
You're the only one who can stop Stop What? What you're talking about? Zack! I can't control it.
Zack! Zack! Slow down! Talk to me! Get away! - I don't want to hurt you! - Hurt me? I can't fight it anymore! Stay back! I'll die before I become one of them.
No! Project goes online, tomorrow night.
Domino will stop it.
I don't understand.
Domino! In the twenty-first century, an alien species known as the Taelons came to Earth with a promise of peace.
They lied Their true agenda was to dominate us.
After years of struggle the Taelons have perished living more aggressive beings in their wake, the Atavus.
My name is Renée Palmer.
My mission is to stop this new species from dominating our planet.
This is Earth Final Conflict.
Saison 5 - Episode 7 "GUILTY CONSCIENCE" Zack sacrificed his life to tell me about Domino.
You just spoke the same language, you're telling me you can't figure out what he's talking about.
Come on Renée, I've only been on it for a few hours, you've got to get me some time.
I can't.
He told me the project goes online in 24 hours.
Whatever the project is.
Look, he battled that hybrid programming with everything he had.
He tried to save me by running away, but I wouldn't let him go.
If you hadn't stopped him, the next person he ran into would have been an "entrée".
I don't know.
He was trying to take his own life, so he wouldn't hurt anyone else.
But I I stopped him from doing it.
You know at the end Zack was human.
I could see it in his eyes.
Yeah, after he was shot.
Two seconds earlier he was trying to jam his cleave into your chest.
No, that wasn't him that was them.
It's such a damn waste.
Here we go.
Looks like Zack had an MIT fellowship in bioengineering.
By 22 he was on the Nobel short list for his work in genetics.
Nice pedigree.
So what exactly was he doing at Tenzer Dynamics? About six month ago he was recruted by Charles Tenzer himself.
Gave Zack his own lab, staff, research program.
Well the honey moon must have ended, he called the Tenzer people bloodsuckers.
You know, maybe maybe Zack left something at his home that we would give us a clue as towards he's working on.
You got an address, ain't you? We have no idea what this human reveal before his death.
The entire project is at risk.
Which is why I'm heading to Earth, to personally retrieve his data, and ensure that we remain on schedule.
There are too many humans involved.
Disaster was bound to happen.
We both agreed.
This project is the corner stone of our strategy to dominate humanity.
So don't forget Howlyn, we had to partner with the human corporation you couldn't handle the work on your own.
I know that! And security was your responsibility! I had Winslow joined as a hybrid.
Obviously that wasn't enough to gain his loyalty.
And what about our partner? What guaranty do we have the Dr.
Tenzer will maintain his loyalty to us? Oh, I made certain that there are other factors motivating him.
- Oh, good evening Dr.
Tenzer.
- Good evening.
Thank you.
I overheard them talking.
They're ready to test the equipment.
Thank you.
Look, Dr.
Tenzer, we all came here because we believe in you.
- These new partners you brought in our - They're not my partners.
They're here on a short time project, that's it.
Once it's over, they're gone.
I believe you sir, it's just that well, the company's financial problems are no secret We all know you have to raise some additional capital, but it doesn't seem like you running things anymore.
That's ridiculous.
Is it? You can't even go to the basement without their permission.
OK, Zack.
Give me something I don't know.
Here goes domino.
He wants to play dominos? I don't believe this.
Entry.
August 20th.
I am still Zack Winslow.
I will not allow the alien genetic transfer to change that.
I've got to find Renée Palmer.
Get her the Domino code, so she can stop the project.
"A quiet ubiquitous Atavus reveals its underhanded motives" What? How did you get in here? Zack, Zack gave me a key.
We worked together.
You know with all the tight dead lines, he always lets me come over and use his computer.
It's it's okay.
He doesn't have to worry about those dead lines anymore.
I juste came from the morgue.
They found my son dead tonight.
I'm sorry.
Why did he have to die? The police wouldn't tell me nothing.
But maybe you can.
I wish there was something I could tell you Mister Winslow.
I'm so sorry.
Look lady, I might not have an heavily education like my son, but I'm not blind.
You didn't use a key to get in here.
And I bet you don't work with Zack.
That's a lie, ain't it? You're right.
We didn't work together at Tenzer, but we were friends.
Who are you? I can't tell you that without putting both of us in danger, but I can tell you that your son he risks his life to track me down before he died.
Why? That's why I'm here trying to find out.
Put the gun down.
Please.
What do you know about my son's work at Tenzer Dynamics? Only that he wasn't very happy there.
That place messed with his head somehow.
I could hardly talk to him anymore.
When Zack's mom died of cancer, he devoted his life to medical research.
They told him, over there, his life will really make a difference His life will make a difference Mr.
Winslow, I promise.
Why should I believe you? I know this sounds weird.
Did Zack ever mention "Domino" to you? No, not to me.
About this message? Any idea what it means.
"A quiet ubiquitous Atavus reveals its underhanded motives " No.
Who is it? Ronald Sandoval, FBI.
Open the damn door! Whatever you do, don't tell him anything.
He's not one of the good guys.
I need you to trust me, for Zack sake.
Just give me a moment with the locks.
When the FBI orders you to open the door: Do it! Anyone here with you? There's no one here, I'm alone.
- Identify yourself.
- Harry Winslow.
- What are you doing here? - I ask the questions Winslow.
I have the right to know why the FBI is breaking into my son's apartment.
You have the right to know whatever I decide to tell you.
I wouldn't.
I'm confiscating all of Zack's work related material, and whatever else I find of interest.
.
.
I guess they don't teach computer courses at the FBI, huh? Don't leave town.
Oh yeah my condolences on your loss.
Thank you.
I didn't do it for you.
I did it for Zack.
Find out who killed my son and why.
That's exactly what I plan to do Mr Winslow.
Harry.
Harry.
Dr.
Tenzer.
How are you sir? There is the man himself.
Dr.
Charles" Triple Crown" Tenzer.
Triple Crown? Yeah, the press laid that one on him when he put three new metals in the periodic table.
Buzz on the street was he was about to do under, until some unidentified venture capitals bill him out.
They're waiting for you in the basement level, sir.
He's headed to the basement.
Unless you locate Winslow's formula, this project is a bust.
Make sure you avoid any booby trap.
like one of a wonder boy use on his home computer.
Sandoval's trying to hack into Zack's computer.
Tenzer's not doing anything to stop him.
You're sure it's Zack's workstation? Yeah, I'm sure.
Well, well, well.
Hybrid chamber.
What's it doing down there? Well, that chamber must be part of whatever Zack was trying to tell me about.
Something to do with Domino.
Hold on.
You have picked this team, Doctor.
Including Zack Winslow.
That seems your judge of character leaves a lot to be desired.
If the formula is in the Winslow's computer, we'll find it.
What if it isn't? We'll create another.
My company has the best minds in the tech industry.
This is our company now, Doc.
We own you.
We agreed to buy this company for one reason: because you guarantee the success of this program.
Now go and find that damn formula.
That's OK I'll take over from here.
And that clears up the identity of Tenzer's mystery investor.
And how Sandoval was able to set up shop in a world class R and D facility like that.
I broke through the firewalls Zack installed around his hard drive.
What about the formula? The video and diagrams are up.
- Let me do it.
- OK.
Who am I looking at? I hope it's you, Sandoval.
Since you manage to penetrate the last of my firewalls you must still be searching for my formula.
Well, I'm here to tell you: You loose! You sick piece of garbage! I destroyed it.
Every copy.
The formula is gone.
Not only that, I've given a failsafe plan to a trusted associate which will destroy the entire project once and for all.
I must be the trusted associate but, I don't know anything about Zack failsafe plan.
From what Zack said, we only have to worry if Sandoval gets the formula.
I came here to help people.
I believed in our work, I did.
But from the beginning, I was your pawn, acting on a part you wanted me to play.
Is it not right? Have you lost every shred of your humanity? Have you? Why don't we let the world answer that? What's going on, agent Sandoval? We're not ready for two hours.
On my order this morning tests were cancelled.
I just add a reschedule.
No! I need to crack the problem with the conductivity.
We haven't yet gage the ambient temperature needed to fuel all the chamber.
I want to see where the project stands, Zack.
You can do this.
You gonna kill him! Get in.
Shut it down.
Shut it down! Looks like you got some work to do, Winslow, and not lot of time to get it done.
Yeah, that's right, I covered my bases with a video micro-cam and a BOT on the disk drive.
So not only is your project going down but so are you, Sandoval.
- He made me! - Go! Go! Seal the building! Good evening Dr.
Tenzer.
Ease your way past the security gate, and then take us to the portal station at 34th and Maybell.
Got it? Good.
Where the hell am I? Zack Winslow was working on an alien project.
What was it? I guess those rumours I heard about you going down the deep end are true.
Because I don't have a clue, what you're talking about.
What are you doing with a hybrid chamber in your basement? That's a Taelon regeneration chamber.
Alien salvage that can save human lives.
You're lying.
And I don't have time for games.
Try again.
Alright.
I'll admit it.
Something didn't feel right, I just didn't ask any questions.
Didn't feel right.
And did it feel alright luring Zack into your company under false pretences? No, that's not true.
I've been trying for years to get Zack to join my company.
Zack's one of the most brilliant young man I've ever known.
He's dead! You sold your soul to save your company.
Now you're sacrificing people like Zack to keep it alive.
I tried to keep him off that project, but they insisted.
His death will be on my hands for the rest of my life.
If I could take it all back You can't.
But you can start making it up to him, by doing exactly what I tell you.
Go ahead.
Another alien species has invaded Earth.
They're called "Atavus".
Yeah, I suspected.
That chamber you're working on belongs to them.
It's use to create alien-human hybrids to become their slaves.
- No! - And that venture capital fund that Sandoval set up to bill you out, it's a front, for the alien agenda.
You're working for them.
The question is, how do you fit into all this? My expertise is precious metals.
The FBI ask me to look at the chambers because the unusual material use to construct it.
They were unable to replicate it.
- Replicate? - Yes.
They wanted to mass produce the chambers.
That's it.
The aliens only have a few chambers left and they can't create hybrids without them.
As far as I know, their chambers were of tealon origin.
You see they were made of a revolutionary alloy.
I called Belivium.
It has the ability to transfer genetic material, like DNA.
And that's where Zack's formula comes in.
You duplicate the Belivium and he figures out, how the human DNA can be absorbed and transferred.
Right.
Your company, is a hybrid chamber factory.
Well, fortunately we can't make anymore without Zack's formula.
And that appears to have died with him.
I'm going in anyway level your all operation to the ground, make sure there's no way could ever get up running again.
I know you built that company with your own hands, but, you definitely got yourself involve with the wrong people.
So, you're with me? When do we leave? Exactly two hours.
Where you going? I I've some unfinished business.
Then they turned him into an Atavus.
So when Zack found out about these aliens, he came to you for help.
Yes, after they had already turned him into hybrid.
When he couldn't control his alien impulses anymore he ran, but I kept chasing him.
Zack tried to kill himself, but I wouldn't let him.
Both went for the gun, and it went off.
You killed my son.
I wanted to tell you exactly what happened, and if you see me as your son's murderer, I understand.
In some ways, I do too.
You're saying, that Zack didn't know the aliens had Tenzer in their pockets when he went to work other there.
When he discovered the aliens, and the truth about the project that he was working on, he threaten to go public.
That's the reason they turned him into a hybrid.
So Zack didn't choose to become a traitor.
No, no.
He was betrayed for trying to do the right thing.
Why did you want to meet back here? I promised you that Zack's life would have meaning.
I need you to help me for filling that promise.
He was my son, Renée.
Zack left a plan for me, to help me fight these aliens, and and it's got to be somewhere in this apartment, or at least a clue.
If you could look through everything.
Help me figure out what it was he was trying to tell me.
If you come up with anything, - you know you can - I know, your global is always on.
He destroyed every copy of your formula, except one.
This, is the human that created the formula wich allows us to produce our chambers? Yes.
This human, is the one who has ensured your future.
He's a hybrid.
Dead only a short time.
From what you've told me about your abilities, I don't believe contact will be any problem.
Then I walk to my journey through the mind of the best your species has to offer.
If only to confirm once again than I am superior.
Don't forget your objective: Find the formula.
Shut it down! This human was not merely supremely intelligent.
He had the heart of a warrior.
For your species these qualities are virtually nonexistent.
Oh hardly, a lot like him running around on Earth, and like Renée Palmer.
Every one of them is you potential enemy.
Now, did you find the formula? Certainly.
In fact, on an elemental level, the sequencing is quiet simple Apparently, not simple enough for you to figure it out on your own.
It took a human to do that.
This is Zack's workstation.
I can see that.
Harry, I'm at Zack's desk, he had this fixation with acronyms, and I was thinking about that line of text he had running accross his computer at home.
Remember? "A quiet, ubiquitous Atavus reveals its underhanded motives" A, Q Aquarium.
Aquarium.
I've got something.
What did you find? A disk.
It's got to be it.
Please start downloading it to me.
I'll get back to you.
Now all I got to do is get through the company security code and enter in the main frame.
You'll need a rocket scientist for that.
Lucky for us, I am one.
Download should only take a few minutes.
Then you're on.
How far along is Sandoval has massed production the chambers.
This is the only one I've ever seen.
What's behind there? Oh, it's a storage, we haven't used it for years.
Looks like Sandoval's been running a night shift.
My God! What is this mean? Simple.
Rather than fighting handfuls of hybrids, we'll fighting armies of them.
- Freeze! Do not move! - Hold it right there! Drop the weapon! This one get me hostage, she brought me down here.
I find our act was pretty convincing.
It was too convincing for my taste.
Let's get out of here.
Winslow's formula.
Where d'you find it? Yeap, that's the real deal.
I recognize Zack's work.
- It's all yours.
- Alright.
Alright, the program's transferring properly, so far it's all good.
All I have to do now, is to patch it into the main frame, and deliver Zack's little Domino package.
OK, we're ready.
Engage the chamber.
Conductivity levels are now in the proper range, and it's generate ambient temperature more than sufficient to fuel the chamber.
Good.
Now let see how it behaves when there's actually somebody inside.
I'm in.
OK, come on, you first.
Don't give me any problem? - What do you do with us? - Get up.
No.
Get her in the chamber.
No! Oh my God! No, no Do you think Sandoval likes to play dominos? Not this version.
It's like a virus.
Someone else is online! Who is it? Entry identify says: Zack Winslow! That's impossible! That boy was a genius! Zack failsafe program has start a chain reaction, off in the chemical sequences in a domino effect.
Oh man! We're losing control.
We've got a serious virus! Save the formula! A subroutine is altering the program.
It's taken over complete control of the chambers! Shut it down! I can't! Crash the system! I'm locked out! The formula has been recombined.
The reaction will be unstoppable.
What like a bomb? Like a dozen bombs.
We've got to get every one out of the building now! Oh, damn! We have three minutes until detonation.
Let's go! Yeah.
- Everybody out! Building's gonna blow up! - OK, go! - Go, go! Elevator! - Move, come on! Everybody let's go! - Clear? - Yeah.
My company has been blown to bits.
My search for funding just dried up.
I'm public enemy number one to a species of aliens, helping on destroying human civilization.
A hell of a week.
Well, I'm still number one on the alien hit-parade but you're definitely a rising star.
Never let up.
We'll be in touch? Count on it.
You fulfilled your promise.
In the end Zack's life did stand for something.
It wasn't me, it was you.
Your son's life had meaning because of the way you raised him.
His formula knocked them down for sure, I give you that.
But if those aliens are as tough you say they'll get back up again.
Zack gave us the chance to fight another day.
And in a war like this that's all we can ask for.
Your son was a hero.
Maybe so, but Zack's gone.
And right now I don't have a clue how to go on without him.
Don't forget about us, Renée.
Me and my beautiful boy.
Never Harry.
Not ever.
_^^^^_ (O .
O) ( o )
Man power is our problem not my complaisancy.
If you want to dominate the human race, you need to create more hybrids.
So what's your Machiavellian purpose in all this? - Power of course! - Over what, a planet of hybrids? You nailed him.
I don't believe this.
It's got to be some way to kill them.
Zack, there you are.
Good to see you.
Come on, sit down.
Something wrong? Are you OK? No, not really.
Well, sit.
Easy.
Look, I'm sorry I haven't called you, I really wanted to but after you left Doors, nobody with the company was supposed to talk to you.
- I was afraid.
- It's all right.
I I understand.
And then those bloodsuckers at Tenzer Dynamics stored me away.
Well, I'm sorry to ear that you're not happy there.
You You know I can always make some calls.
I'm not talking about the job.
Damn it! I'm know what your doing.
You're the only one who can stop Stop What? What you're talking about? Zack! I can't control it.
Zack! Zack! Slow down! Talk to me! Get away! - I don't want to hurt you! - Hurt me? I can't fight it anymore! Stay back! I'll die before I become one of them.
No! Project goes online, tomorrow night.
Domino will stop it.
I don't understand.
Domino! In the twenty-first century, an alien species known as the Taelons came to Earth with a promise of peace.
They lied Their true agenda was to dominate us.
After years of struggle the Taelons have perished living more aggressive beings in their wake, the Atavus.

Well, I'm here to tell you: You loose! You sick piece of garbage! I destroyed it.
Every copy.
The formula is gone.
Not only that, I've given a failsafe plan to a trusted associate which will destroy the entire project once and for all.
I must be the trusted associate but, I don't know anything about Zack failsafe plan.
From what Zack said, we only have to worry if Sandoval gets the formula.
I came here to help people.
I believed in our work, I did.
But from the beginning, I was your pawn, acting on a part you wanted me to play.
Is it not right? Have you lost every shred of your humanity? Have you? Why don't we let the world answer that? What's going on, agent Sandoval? We're not ready for two hours.
On my order this morning tests were cancelled.
I just add a reschedule.
No! I need to crack the problem with the conductivity.
We haven't yet gage the ambient temperature needed to fuel all the chamber.
I want to see where the project stands, Zack.
You can do this.
You gonna kill him! Get in.
Shut it down.
Shut it down! Looks like you got some work to do, Winslow, and not lot of time to get it done.
Yeah, that's right, I covered my bases with a video micro-cam and a BOT on the disk drive.
So not only is your project going down but so are you, Sandoval.
- He made me! - Go! Go! Seal the building! Good evening Dr.
Tenzer.
Ease your way past the security gate, and then take us to the portal station at 34th and Maybell.
Got it? Good.
Where the hell am I? Zack Winslow was working on an alien project.
What was it? I guess those rumours I heard about you going down the deep end are true.
Because I don't have a clue, what you're talking about.
What are you doing with a hybrid chamber in your basement? That's a Taelon regeneration chamber.
Alien salvage that can save human lives.
You're lying.
And I don't have time for games.
Try again.
Alright.
I'll admit it.
Something didn't feel right, I just didn't ask any questions.
Didn't feel right.
And did it feel alright luring Zack into your company under false pretences? No, that's not true.
I've been trying for years to get Zack to join my company.
Zack's one of the most brilliant young man I've ever known.
He's dead! You sold your soul to save your company.
Now you're sacrificing people like Zack to keep it alive.
I tried to keep him off that project, but they insisted.
His death will be on my hands for the rest of my life.
If I could take it all back You can't.
But you can start making it up to him, by doing exactly what I tell you.
Go ahead.
Another alien species has invaded Earth.
They're called "Atavus".
Yeah, I suspected.
That chamber you're working on belongs to them.
It's use to create alien-human hybrids to become their slaves.
- No! - And that venture capital fund that Sandoval set up to bill you out, it's a front, for the alien agenda.
You're working for them.
The question is, how do you fit into all this? My expertise is precious metals.
The FBI ask me to look at the chambers because the unusual material use to construct it.
They were unable to replicate it.
- Replicate? - Yes.
They wanted to mass produce the chambers.
That's it.
The aliens only have a few chambers left and they can't create hybrids without them.
As far as I know, their chambers were of tealon origin.
You see they were made of a revolutionary alloy.
I called Belivium.
It has the ability to transfer genetic material, like DNA.
And that's where Zack's formula comes in.
You duplicate the Belivium and he figures out, how the human DNA can be absorbed and transferred.
Right.
Your company, is a hybrid chamber factory.
Well, fortunately we can't make anymore without Zack's formula.
And that appears to have died with him.
I'm going in anyway level your all operation to the ground, make sure there's no way could ever get up running again.
I know you built that company with your own hands, but, you definitely got yourself involve with the wrong people.
So, you're with me? When do we leave? Exactly two hours.
Where you going? I I've some unfinished business.
Then they turned him into an Atavus.
So when Zack found out about these aliens, he came to you for help.
Yes, after they had already turned him into hybrid.
When he couldn't control his alien impulses anymore he ran, but I kept chasing him.
Zack tried to kill himself, but I wouldn't let him.
Both went for the gun, and it went off.
You killed my son.
I wanted to tell you exactly what happened, and if you see me as your son's murderer, I understand.
In some ways, I do too.
You're saying, that Zack didn't know the aliens had Tenzer in their pockets when he went to work other there.
When he discovered the aliens, and the truth about the project that he was working on, he threaten to go public.
That's the reason they turned him into a hybrid.
So Zack didn't choose to become a traitor.
No, no.
He was betrayed for trying to do the right thing.
Why did you want to meet back here? I promised you that Zack's life would have meaning.
I need you to help me for filling that promise.
He was my son, Renée.
Zack left a plan for me, to help me fight these aliens, and and it's got to be somewhere in this apartment, or at least a clue.
If you could look through everything.
Help me figure out what it was he was trying to tell me.
If you come up with anything, - you know you can - I know, your global is always on.
He destroyed every copy of your formula, except one.
This, is the human that created the formula wich allows us to produce our chambers? Yes.
This human, is the one who has ensured your future.
He's a hybrid.
Dead only a short time.
From what you've told me about your abilities, I don't believe contact will be any problem.
Then I walk to my journey through the mind of the best your species has to offer.
If only to confirm once again than I am superior.
Don't forget your objective: Find the formula.
Shut it down! This human was not merely supremely intelligent.
He had the heart of a warrior.
For your species these qualities are virtually nonexistent.
Oh hardly, a lot like him running around on Earth, and like Renée Palmer.
Every one of them is you potential enemy.
Now, did you find the formula? Certainly.
In fact, on an elemental level, the sequencing is quiet simple Apparently, not simple enough for you to figure it out on your own.
It took a human to do that.
This is Zack's workstation.
I can see that.
Harry, I'm at Zack's desk, he had this fixation with acronyms, and I was thinking about that line of text he had running accross his computer at home.
Remember? "A quiet, ubiquitous Atavus reveals its underhanded motives" A, Q Aquarium.
Aquarium.
I've got something.
What did you find? A disk.
It's got to be it.
Please start downloading it to me.
I'll get back to you.
Now all I got to do is get through the company security code and enter in the main frame.
You'll need a rocket scientist for that.
Lucky for us, I am one.
Download should only take a few minutes.
Then you're on.
How far along is Sandoval has massed production the chambers.
This is the only one I've ever seen.
What's behind there? Oh, it's a storage, we haven't used it for years.
Looks like Sandoval's been running a night shift.
My God! What is this mean? Simple.
Rather than fighting handfuls of hybrids, we'll fighting armies of them.
- Freeze! Do not move! - Hold it right there! Drop the weapon! This one get me hostage, she brought me down here.
I find our act was pretty convincing.
It was too convincing for my taste.
Let's get out of here.
Winslow's formula.
Where d'you find it? Yeap, that's the real deal.
I recognize Zack's work.
- It's all yours.
- Alright.
Alright, the program's transferring properly, so far it's all good.
All I have to do now, is to patch it into the main frame, and deliver Zack's little Domino package.
OK, we're ready.
Engage the chamber.
Conductivity levels are now in the proper range, and it's generate ambient temperature more than sufficient to fuel the chamber.
Good.
Now let see how it behaves when there's actually somebody inside.
I'm in.
OK, come on, you first.
Don't give me any problem? - What do you do with us? - Get up.
No.
Get her in the chamber.
No! Oh my God! No, no Do you think Sandoval likes to play dominos? Not this version.
It's like a virus.
Someone else is online! Who is it? Entry identify says: Zack Winslow! That's impossible! That boy was a genius! Zack failsafe program has start a chain reaction, off in the chemical sequences in a domino effect.
Oh man! We're losing control.
We've got a serious virus! Save the formula! A subroutine is altering the program.
It's taken over complete control of the chambers! Shut it down! I can't! Crash the system! I'm locked out! The formula has been recombined.
The reaction will be unstoppable.
What like a bomb? Like a dozen bombs.
We've got to get every one out of the building now! Oh, damn! We have three minutes until detonation.
Let's go! Yeah.
- Everybody out! Building's gonna blow up! - OK, go! - Go, go! Elevator! - Move, come on! Everybody let's go! - Clear? - Yeah.
My company has been blown to bits.
My search for funding just dried up.
I'm public enemy number one to a species of aliens, helping on destroying human civilization.
A hell of a week.
Well, I'm still number one on the alien hit-parade but you're definitely a rising star.
Never let up.
We'll be in touch? Count on it.
You fulfilled your promise.
In the end Zack's life did stand for something.
It wasn't me, it was you.
Your son's life had meaning because of the way you raised him.
His formula knocked them down for sure, I give you that.
But if those aliens are as tough you say they'll get back up again.
Zack gave us the chance to fight another day.
And in a war like this that's all we can ask for.
Your son was a hero.
Maybe so, but Zack's gone.
And right now I don't have a clue how to go on without him.
Don't forget about us, Renée.
Me and my beautiful boy.
Never Harry.
Not ever.
