[ticking]
[ticking stops]
[scoffs]
- It stopped.
- What's that, Dave?
Nothing. How we doing?
Oh, we're ready.
- You, uh, feeling the magic?
- Oh, I'm feeling the magic, all right.
- Let's hit 'em.
- Yeah.
- Let's do it.
- Here we go.
- Let's hit 'em.
- Let's go make $30 million.
[Dave] Good morning.
Before I begin, let me...
[all murmuring]
- David?
- I'll go get help.
- [horns honking, brakes screeching]
- Jesus. Jesus, David.

[woman] David?
[crashing continues]
[people screaming]
[man] Nick? Nicky?!
N icky!
[screams continue]
[sirens approaching]
[man 1] OK.
[man 2] It's OK, it's OK.
You'll be OK.
Get everybody else off the bus.
[ticking continues]
[man 3] Sound waves.
So...
...if we know that sound waves
gain wavelength...
[writing on chalkboard]
...and lose frequency
as they travel
through more dense materials...
...then the anomalies in these waves...
...are the means
by which we can surmise
the fundamental architecture
of our planet.
- How are the nails coming, Christine?
- [laughter]
Good. All right,
let's have a demonstration.
Mr. Acker, Veronica.
Thank you very much.
[blows loud note]
All right. Mrs. Limestone,
being a big softie, you know,
loves walks in the park, bedtime
stories, big romantic. Loves Chet.
I can't play Chet,
but I'll see what I can do.
Watch the oscilloscope, all right?
Here we go.
[playing off-key]
[clears throat]
- Dr. Joshua Keyes?
- Maybe.
- Yes or no, sir?
- The first one.
Please come with us, sir.
- [stammers] Guys, what's going on?
- We don't know, sir.
What do you mean, you don't know?
Your security clearance
is higher than ours.
I have security clearance?
We're just here to
bring you to yourjet.
I have a jet?
[man speaking French]
Hey, Serge.
Serge. Serge.
Damn! It's about time.
You're always late.
Let's keep moving, gentlemen.
What am I doing here? They wouldn't
brief me until you got here.
You know, there are biochemists
everywhere, military. I hate them.
When are you going to meet a nice girl
and bring her for dinner?
- I'm married to my work.
- So am I.
Which makes my wife my mistress.
That's why I'm still in love with her.
- You were always a romantic.
- I love my wife.
- Yeah, I know. I love your wife, too.
- I know.
But I don't love your wife.
You know what I mean.
You don't love her
the same way, you know.
It's the French.
I think it's the cheese.
- Ah, the cheese.
- [both laugh]
- You're... you're teasing me, right?
- Oh, my...!
Whoa. Wait, these are bodies.
I think we're
- Yeah, we're in the wrong place.
- [man] No.
If you were in the wrong place,
you would've already been shot.
- That's a hell of a greeting.
- Serge.
- Serge.
- Serge. Yes. Always a pleasure.
Same here, Thomas.
Dr. Keyes.
I know. Tom Purcell.
Gentlemen, you do realise
that everything here
is totally classified, OK?
At 10.30 a.m. local time,
all within a ten-block radius...
...died.
They didn't get sick first.
- They simply hit the ground dead.
- Nerve agent?
- [Tom] Our first guess. No.
- They all died at the same time?
[Tom] As far as we can tell,
to the second.
This hits CNN in one hour.
I need a reason.
[Serge] ls there a variation
in sex, age, body type?
They all had pacemakers.
Under a minute.
Your reputation is well-deserved.
- Hey, hey, hey.
- [Tom] How did you guess,
- without any clues from the victims?
- No, that's...
Serge and I are the clues.
