Doom

Synopsis: Something has gone wrong at a remote scientific research station on Mars. All research has ceased. Communication has failed. And the messages that do get through are less than comforting. It's a level 5 quarantine and the only souls allowed in or out are the Rapid Response Tactical Squad - hardened Marines armed to the teeth with enough firepower to neutralize the enemy...or so they think.

In the year 2026...

archaeologists working

in the Nevada desert...

discovered a portal

to an ancient city on Mars.

They called this portal

the Ark.

Twenty years later,

we're still struggling

to understand...

why it was built...

and what happened

to the civilization

that built it.

Dr. Carmack!

Dr. Carmack!

Dr. Carmack!

Dr. Carmack!

This is Dr. Carmack,

procedures immediately.

Implement quarantine

procedures now.

Reading you

loud and clear, General.

Union Aerospace has requested

assistance to contain...

a Level 5 breach

at their Olduvai facility.

How many personnel involved?

Six scientists

are under lockdown

in a high-security lab...

where the breach occurred.

Another 79 UAC employees

are on site.

Ark travel has been suspended.

What's the objective?

Code red.

Assess level of threat.

Protect and retrieve

UAC property.

Maintain quarantine

I don't believe this.

I confess to God the father.

Oh, yeah!

I need help.

The wall, man.

I don't believe this sh*t.

Six months

without a weekend...

the goddamned transporters

are five minutes late.

And that's five minutes of

R and R I ain't never gonna

get back.

Hey, relax, baby.

We're on vacation.

Yo.

This game's layered, man.

Where you going, Portman?

I'm going down to El Honto...

and I'm gonna lock myself

in a motel room...

with a bottle of tequila

and three she-boys.

You're sick, man.

I'm sick of your filth,

Portman.

He speaks.

What's it gonna be, Reaps?

An armed conflict

someplace quiet?

Yeah, a little relaxing

jungle warfare?

Or maybe you're just gonna

stay right here.

Spending my time

doing pushups.

Listen up, men.

Leave is canceled.

Oh, man. I just...

I don't believe this sh*t.

F***!

Got a problem with that, Duke?

Me, Sarge?

Hell, no, I love my job.

All dressed up and

nowhere to go, huh, Portman?

Kid, don't forget your rattle.

Shut up, Portman.

Not this time, John.

What?

We can handle this one.

You're bullshitting me.

No, I'm not bullshitting.

We're going to Olduvai.

Olduvai?

Take the leave.

Is that an order?

It's a recommendation.

See you when I get back.

Aircraft ready to load.

A couple of days ago

I asked Sarge for

a little p*ssy.

The next day he brought you

onto the team.

Don't give me

an excuse, Portman.

No one here will miss you.

Men, look in.

This is what we got

from Simcon.

We have a quarantine situation

on Olduvai.

They sent this message...

when the research team

stopped responding to

all communications.

ETA at 90 seconds. Stand by.

Look alive, men. Game time.
