Big Game Page #2

Synopsis: When Air Force One is shot down by terrorists leaving the President of the United States stranded in the wilderness, there is only one person around who can save him - a 13-year old boy called Oskari. In the forest on a hunting mission to prove his maturity to his kinsfolk, Oskari had been planning to track down a deer, but instead discovers the most powerful man on the planet in an escape pod. With the terrorists closing in to capture their own "Big Game" prize, the unlikely duo must team up to escape their hunters. As anxious Pentagon officials observe the action via satellite feed, it is up to the President and his new side-kick to prove themselves and survive the most extraordinary 24 hours of their lives.

Shoulder-mounted SAMs can't

reach passenger jet altitude.

They can.

If the plane is on its

landing trajectory,

and if the point of firing

is at a higher

than usual altitude,

like the side of a mountain...

But Air Force One was fitted with

every countermeasure known to man.

That's the job of the guy on the inside,

to disable them.

Wait, he used a jammer,

an EMP device?

Or a screwdriver

and a pair of pliers.

What about getting a man

on Air Force One?

How could they penetrate

security that tight?

Same way they always do.

Money,

sex,

or God.

Any suggestions?

There's only one thing left.

Find the President,

kill the sons of b*tches

who are after him...

Bring him home.

This is Agent Echo-Mike,

calling all agents on the ground.

Respond immediately.

I repeat, Agent Echo-Mike.

Is anyone receiving?

No one.

Glad to hear it, over and out.

Angel is down.

We're good to go.

Please stay inside,

help is on the way.

Do not exit the rescue pod

under any circumstance.

Please stay inside,

help is on the way.

Do not exit the rescue pod...

Show yourself!

Come out!

Please...

What language is this?

Can you show yourself, please?

From what planet are you from?

I am from Earth.

Is this some kid I'm talking to?

Do you come in peace?

Yes.

Yes, I...

I come in peace.

Most definitely, yes, I...

Wait, wait, don't hang...

"Don't hang up."

What's wrong with me?

Look, could you please

just come out?

Whoa, whoa, kid, hey!

Can we, um,

lose the bow and arrow?

Who are you?

You don't recognize me?

I'm William Allen Moore,

the President

of the United States.

Prove it.

Stay.

Are you hurt?

No.

I am lost.

And I could use your help.

Do you have a phone?

No, no, no, no, a real phone.

Or is your house close by,

a town, small village?

Where did you come from?

I mean, there must be something.

I mean, did you just pop up

out of the ground?

Vice President,

we have located

the rescue pod tracker.

Sir, the situation

is under control.

This is Genik 1 to Command.

We have confirmed signal from

the President's escape pod.

We are closing in on it now.

ETA, one minute.

Copy that, Genik 1,

secure the President.

Shh.

This is Genik 1,

the pod is not here.

- What?

- Repeat that, Genik 1.

We did not copy, over.

Uh, the homing beacon and the escape

pod must have separated, sir.

I say again,

the President is not here.

God in heaven!

Genik 1, return to base,

await further instructions.

Over and out.

Roger that, Genik 1 out.

I apologize, sir.

You're telling me

we lost our President

like you lose a set of car keys.

This is the most powerful nation

in the history of the planet.

Look at me!
