Prometheus Page #2

Synopsis: This film is set in 2093 and takes place in the same universe as the 'Alien' movies. A group of explorers, including some archaeologists, are on an "undisclosed" mission. They arrive at a moon trillions of miles away from Earth. The team spot what they believe to be signs of civilization. They go to investigate and find more than just signs, they find conclusive evidence. But some of them have an ulterior motive for being there, including the Weyland Corporation. They believe that this is where the human race actually came from. Things soon turn from excitement to survival once inside their discovery.

Nice place.

- It's actually a separate module,

with its own self-contained life support.

Air, food, anything miss Vickers would

need to survive hostile environment.

OK, so she lives on a life boat.

- Yes, I do, I like to minimize risk.

David, why don't you

make the doctors a drink?

I'll take a vodka, up.

Charlie look, it's a Pauling med-pod.

They only made a dozen of these.

- Miss Shaw!

Please verbally state the

nature of your injury.

Please don't touch that. It's a

very expensive piece of machinery.

It does bypass surgeries,

what do you need it for?

I think there might be some

confusion about our relationship.

Weyland found you impressive

enough to fund this mission,

but I'm fairly certain your

"engineers" are nothing but scribblings

of savages living in dirty little caves.

But let's say I'm wrong, and you

do find these beings down there.

You won't engage them.

You won't talk to them, you will

do nothing but report it back to me.

Miss Vickers, is there an agenda

that you're not telling us about?

My company paid a trillion dollars to

find this place and to bring you here.

Had you raised the money

yourself Mr. Holloway,

we'd happily be pursuing your, agenda.

But you didn't.

And that makes you an employee.

If we can't make contact, why

did you even bring us here?

Weyland was a superstitious man.

He wanted a true believer on board.

Cheers.

So no response?

- I am sorry, no.

Maybe they didn't understand it.

How are your lessons going, David?

I spent two years deconstructing dozens

of ancient languages, to their roots.

I'm confident I can

communicate with them,

provided your thesis is correct.

Provided it's correct, that's good.

That's why they call

it a thesis, doctor.

What are you smiling about?

- Alright, Mr. Ravel, Mr. Chance,

let's take her down.

- Roger that. - Yes captain.

How are we doing?

- Great.

Alright boss.

- All personnel, this is the captain.

Brace for entry.

- Yes captain.

That means you too Vickers.

What is the atmosphere?

Atmosphere is 71% Nitrogen,

Whoa, now that's weather.

- Just like home.

Only if you're breathing

through an exhaust pipe.

CO2 is over 3%. Two minutes

without a suite, you're dead.

Peak, port side, 52.000. Makes

Everest look like a baby brother.

Alright, take us round.

We will use that as our point of entry.

Terrain data rising up. We've got a

couple of hard spots. Could be metal.

No radio, no heat source.

- Nobody's home.

There's nothing in the

desert. No man needs nothing.

What was that?

- Just something from a film I like.

Let's go through that gateway.

Reduce air speed by 100 knots.

Going through, nice and slow.
