Alien vs. Hunter Page #7

---

I know this must be very unnerving for you.

Yes, it is a bit, sir.

I can't imagine

why I should be brought here.

What we're about to tell you, Dr. Bachman,

is truly beyond your imagination.

- You believe it's ETI in origin, don't you?

- Everything certainly points to it.

I hope you're wrong, Jules.

Nobody's called me that for a long time.

Why do you hope I'm wrong?

Because if you're right,

we could be Neanderthals in comparison.

That may not be so bad.

Think of what we might learn from them.

Maybe they won't have the patience

to teach us.

So it'll just be survival of the fittest.

Same rationale we've used to kill

everything below us on the food chain.

Maybe they're an even more effective

predator than we are.

- Kate.

- Don't.

- You don't know what I was gonna say.

- You were gonna apologize again.

Just let it go.

- Am I interrupting something?

- No. We're done.

Was I interrupting something?

It's a long story.

Will you do me a favor? I wanna...

Will you watch this program? I wanna

grab a shower, get something to eat.

Would you like some company?

That would be nice.

But I better not.

See you in a bit.

Be careful with that thing.

Now hold it still.

Here.

- Is this gonna work?

- It should.

All right, let it drop.

Turn it off!

Something's generating current inside of it,

but it should be safe to work on.

Would you like something to drink?

Some water, coffee?

- Brandy.

- Brandy, please.

The weather systems have prevented us

from making contact.

Our satellite systems will alert us

at the first opportunity.

What if this is really true?

What if we're already too late?

We've considered that.

Measures are being initiated as we speak.

The message from the Americans is

properly formulated, sir.

All ahead two thirds. Set depth for

six hundred feet.

All ahead two thirds. Depth set for

six hundred feet.

Commence heading two five zero.

Sir. Commencing heading two five zero.

- What do you think is inside it?

- Nothing, I hope.

The blade's cutting through a layer

much softer than the outside surface.

- What if he's right?

- Snap out of it, Kate.

You don't believe it any more than I do.

The only reason you're going along

with this insanity is because of him.

That's not true.

It's not rock. It looks like a carbon alloy.

What caused the surface corrosion?

Water exposure?

It appears more like a molten degeneration...

from exposure to extreme heat.

For God's sake, Alexie,

you don't know what the hell that thing is.

I'll tell you what.

I'm going down to the corn lab to work.

They don't give Nobel prizes for space junk.

Anything?

No, it just keeps returning to that.

- What exactly is it doing?
