It's working!

Home.

You did it!

It's working!

Home.

E.T., it's working!

We have to go now, E.T.

We're so late already.

We have to go home now, E.T.

You should give them some time.

Ouch.

You could be happy here.

I could take care of you.

I wouldn't let anybody hurt you.

We could grow up together, E.T.

Home.

Home.

Home.

Home.

E.T.?

How was he dressed when last seen?

He was dressed as a...

...hunchback.

Hunchback.

Is there anything to indicate

that he might have run away?

Any family problems or recent arguments?

My husband and I just separated recently...

...and it hasn't been easy on the children,

but....

My father's in Mexico.

But run away, I....

Where would he have gone?

Elliott.

Oh, Elliott!

Don't ever do this again, Elliott!

Oh, my. You're so hot.

Run up and draw him a bath. Quick, Gert.

Sorry I yelled at you.

Thanks very much for all your trouble.

Is he here?

You've got to find him.

Where is he?

In the forest.

At the bald spot.

You've got to find him.

No!

No!

Mom, would you come with me?

What is it?

Mary, just come with me.

Michael, what?

-Mom, remember the goblin?

-What are you talking about?

Swear the most excellent promise

you can make.

Michael.

That's terrific.

Mom.

We're sick.

I think we're dying.

Michael.

Mom, it's okay.

Downstairs.

He's not going to hurt you, Mom.

He won't hurt you.

Michael, get her downstairs.

It's the man from the moon.

The man from the moon!

You don't know him! You don't know him!

We can't leave him alone.

This is my home!

Home.

Home.

The Collagen Unit,

report to the Blue Level immediately.

Does he sleep?

I don't know.

What's the matter with Elliott?

Have you noticed any sweating?

No.

Has it lost hair?

He never had any hair.

Are the children all right?

Did it build or write anything?

No.

You say it has the ability

to manipulate its own environment?

He's smart.

He communicates through Elliott.

Elliott thinks its thoughts.

No. Elliott feels his feelings.

We've identified

his primary carrier protein.

It's definitely not albumin.

The testing shows no deficits

on FNF and HTS testing.

EEG analysis shows complete coherence

and synchronization of brainwave activity...

...between subjects.

There's no response at 20 per kilo.

Let's move to hypertonic saline.

Cut five per kilo.

You have no right to do this.

You're scaring him.

You're scaring him!

Respiratory rate: 12.

Good air entry

but decreased tidal volume on the boy.

Put him on 025 liters by nasal cannula

and draw blood gas in 20 minutes.
