0:02:52 > 0:02:54Where are they?

0:02:54 > 0:02:56BOY: Dad!

0:02:56 > 0:02:58Uncle Merrill!

0:03:17 > 0:03:19Bo... Bo, Bo, where's Morgan?

0:03:19 > 0:03:21Bo?

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Are you in my dream, too?

0:03:23 > 0:03:25This is not a dr...

0:03:25 > 0:03:27MORGAN: Dad!

0:03:33 > 0:03:35Morgan, what's happening?

0:03:35 > 0:03:39The dogs were barking. It woke us up.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Are you hurt?

0:03:42 > 0:03:44I think God did it.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Did what, Morgan?

0:03:48 > 0:03:51DOGS BARK IN DISTANCE

0:04:11 > 0:04:14BARKING GETS LOUDER

0:05:02 > 0:05:05Look, Lee, I don't even care if it was him.

0:05:05 > 0:05:07You could just have a word with him

0:05:07 > 0:05:09and that'd be enough for me.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13See, it was strange finding the crops that way.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16The kids were confused by it

0:05:16 > 0:05:19and it'd sure take the strangeness away

0:05:19 > 0:05:21if I knew it was just Lionel and the Wolfington brothers

0:05:21 > 0:05:23messing around, that's all.

0:05:24 > 0:05:26At the movies.

0:05:26 > 0:05:28Are you sure?

0:05:28 > 0:05:30All right, then.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33Thanks for your patience, Lee.

0:05:33 > 0:05:34Yeah, bye.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40Houdini peed.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42I think he's sick.

0:05:42 > 0:05:44Why don't you take him outside?

0:05:44 > 0:05:45I'll call Dr Crawford.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47He doesn't treat animals.

0:05:47 > 0:05:48He'll know what to do.

0:05:54 > 0:05:59DOOR OPENS AND SHUTS

0:06:04 > 0:06:06Oh, that was quick, Caroline.

0:06:06 > 0:06:08I only called you folks two hours ago.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11Old Mrs Kindleman twisted her ankle

0:06:11 > 0:06:13as she puts it, "diving for her life"

0:06:13 > 0:06:16when a bunch of schoolkids rode down the sidewalk

0:06:16 > 0:06:17on skateboards.

0:06:17 > 0:06:20She went down to Thorton's store this mornin'

0:06:20 > 0:06:23and started spittin' on the new skateboards.

0:06:23 > 0:06:24Spittin'!

0:06:24 > 0:06:26By the time I got there

0:06:26 > 0:06:30Mrs Kindleman had sprayed the whole damn place.

0:06:30 > 0:06:33And she must have had a cold or something.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36I'm telling you, I won't eat for a week.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38SHE SIGHS

0:06:38 > 0:06:41So, what happened to your crops?

0:06:44 > 0:06:48Dad's going to burn these again.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57It's contaminated.

0:06:57 > 0:07:00You don't even know what that word means.

0:07:02 > 0:07:04It's not contaminated.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06It's just tap water. Pour it in his bowl.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08It tastes funny.

0:07:08 > 0:07:09It does not.

0:07:09 > 0:07:11Besides, he licks his butt every day.

0:07:11 > 0:07:12I don't think he'll mind.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28HE BARKS FEROCIOUSLY

0:07:28 > 0:07:29HE SNARLS

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Houdini?

0:07:31 > 0:07:33Bo, don't run.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35What's wrong, boy?

0:07:35 > 0:07:37Stop it, Houdini.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40HE BARKS AND SNARLS

0:07:43 > 0:07:48CAROLINE: Look at where it's bent over, Father.

0:07:48 > 0:07:51It's not broken.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54And what kind of machine can bend a stalk of corn over

0:07:54 > 0:07:56without breaking it?

0:07:56 > 0:07:59It can't be by hand, it's too perfect.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01It doesn't sound much like Lionel Prichard

0:08:01 > 0:08:02and the Wolfington brothers.

0:08:02 > 0:08:04They can't take a piss

0:08:04 > 0:08:06without wetting the front of their pants.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08I don't think anyone else around here

0:08:08 > 0:08:10has had any problems.

0:08:10 > 0:08:13I was over Theo Henry's farm yesterday afternoon

0:08:13 > 0:08:15and he would've mentioned something.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17Why were you at Theo's place?

0:08:17 > 0:08:20Some animals around the county have been acting funny.

0:08:20 > 0:08:23And some of them violent.

0:08:24 > 0:08:25What is it, a virus?

0:08:25 > 0:08:27I don't think so, Father.

0:08:27 > 0:08:30They're more edgy.

0:08:30 > 0:08:32They're on alert.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35It's almost like they act when they smell a predator around,

0:08:35 > 0:08:37peeing on themselves and everything.

0:08:37 > 0:08:41BIRDS CAW

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Caroline?

0:08:49 > 0:08:51Please stop calling me "Father".

0:08:51 > 0:08:53What's wrong?

0:08:53 > 0:08:56I don't hear my children.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27He fell on me.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29He wanted to kill Bo.

0:09:45 > 0:09:47Did he hurt you?

0:09:47 > 0:09:48No.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56I'm so sorry, Morgan.

0:10:15 > 0:10:16Where were you?

0:10:18 > 0:10:20Houdini's sick.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22Tie Isabelle up to the back of the shed

0:10:22 > 0:10:24and make sure the knot's very tight.

0:10:51 > 0:10:55INSECTS CHIRP

0:10:59 > 0:11:01CHIRPING STOPS

0:11:06 > 0:11:08What's the matter?

0:11:08 > 0:11:11There's a monster outside my room.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13Can I have a glass of water?

0:11:13 > 0:11:17What's wrong with the water next to your bed?

0:11:17 > 0:11:19It tastes old.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33HE SIGHS

0:11:34 > 0:11:37MORGAN GRUNTS SOFTLY

0:11:51 > 0:11:53What are you thinking about?

0:11:55 > 0:12:00Why do you talk to Mom when you're by yourself?

0:12:02 > 0:12:04It makes me feel better.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08Does she ever answer back?

0:12:12 > 0:12:13No.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18She never answers me, either.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36What?

0:12:36 > 0:12:40Lionel Prichard and the Wolfington brothers are back.

0:12:40 > 0:12:42It's time for an ass-whoopin'.

0:12:42 > 0:12:46This is not an intelligent way to approach this.

0:12:46 > 0:12:49Lee is a friend of mine. This is his son.

0:12:49 > 0:12:50We'll be doing Lee a favour.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52Listen, we both go outside,

0:12:52 > 0:12:55move around the house in opposite directions.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57We act crazy, insane with anger

0:12:57 > 0:12:58and make them crap in their pants,

0:12:58 > 0:13:00force them around till we meet up

0:13:00 > 0:13:02on the other side.

0:13:02 > 0:13:03Explain "act crazy".

0:13:03 > 0:13:04Curse and stuff.

0:13:04 > 0:13:06You want me to curse?

0:13:06 > 0:13:08You don't mean it. It's just for show.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10What?

0:13:10 > 0:13:13It won't be convincing. It doesn't sound natural when I curse.

0:13:13 > 0:13:15Just make noises then.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17Explain "noises".

0:13:17 > 0:13:19Are you going to do this or what?

0:13:19 > 0:13:20No, I'm not.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22All right, you want them stealing something

0:13:22 > 0:13:23in the house next time?

0:13:23 > 0:13:25On the count of three.

0:13:25 > 0:13:26One...

0:13:26 > 0:13:28two, three!

0:13:31 > 0:13:33Aargh! I'm insane with anger!

0:13:33 > 0:13:35We're going to beat your ass, bitch!

0:13:35 > 0:13:37CLATTERING

0:13:40 > 0:13:42We're going to tear your head off!

0:13:42 > 0:13:44I'm losing my mind!

0:13:46 > 0:13:48It's time for an ass-whooping!

0:13:50 > 0:13:51THEY PANT

0:13:54 > 0:13:55I cursed.

0:13:55 > 0:13:57I heard.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03How did he get...?

0:14:03 > 0:14:06FOOTSTEPS

0:14:37 > 0:14:39CAROLINE: You like that?

0:14:41 > 0:14:44You got an old baby monitor around?

0:14:44 > 0:14:46Bo had an old baby monitor.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48Well, you can use Bo's baby monitor

0:14:48 > 0:14:50as a walkie-talkie.

0:14:50 > 0:14:51You can?

0:14:52 > 0:14:54It only works one way, but it'll do fine.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57That is, until someone gets you

0:14:57 > 0:15:00an old walkie-talkie left over at the station.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03TV BLARES

0:15:05 > 0:15:07Hey, Bo?

0:15:07 > 0:15:09Turn that down till Officer Paski leaves.

0:15:12 > 0:15:15You're too old to still be doing this.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17You take a glass of water, and you finish it.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19Now, what's wrong with this one?

0:15:19 > 0:15:21It has dust in it.

0:15:21 > 0:15:22This one?

0:15:22 > 0:15:24A hair.

0:15:24 > 0:15:25This one?

0:15:25 > 0:15:29Morgan took a sip, and it has his amoebas in it.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35So, how are you, Merrill?

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Fine.

0:15:39 > 0:15:42How is work at the gas station?

0:15:42 > 0:15:44Stimulating.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49I never got a chance to tell you

0:15:49 > 0:15:51but I thought you moving in here

0:15:51 > 0:15:53with your brother after...

0:15:53 > 0:15:56It was a nice thing to do.

0:15:56 > 0:15:59Well, I don't think I'm helping much.

0:16:02 > 0:16:05You are.

0:16:21 > 0:16:24Sorry.

0:16:24 > 0:16:28OK, so far I have - "It was very dark."

0:16:28 > 0:16:31Yes, it was.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34You can't describe him at all?

0:16:35 > 0:16:37Don't you think that's kind of odd?

0:16:37 > 0:16:40A little.

0:16:40 > 0:16:44I don't know whether to look for a giant or a midget.

0:16:44 > 0:16:46Well, he definitely wasn't a midget.

0:16:46 > 0:16:48OK.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50So, he was tall.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55I-I would say so, yes.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Probably.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00CAROLINE: Over six feet?

0:17:00 > 0:17:02It was very dark.

0:17:02 > 0:17:04Yes, it was.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07How certain are you that this was a male?

0:17:07 > 0:17:10I don't know any girls who could run like that.

0:17:10 > 0:17:11I don't know, Merrill.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14I've seen some of those women on the Olympics.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16They can run like the wind.

0:17:16 > 0:17:19This guy got on our roof in, like, a second.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21Our roof is ten feet high!

0:17:21 > 0:17:24They have women's high jumping in the Olympics.

0:17:24 > 0:17:26They got these Scandinavian women

0:17:26 > 0:17:28who can jump clean over me.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34Caroline, I know you're making a point here

0:17:34 > 0:17:36but I just don't know what it is.

0:17:36 > 0:17:40An out-of-town woman stopped by the diner yesterday afternoon

0:17:40 > 0:17:42and started yellin' and cussin' because they didn't have

0:17:42 > 0:17:45her favourite cigarettes at the vending machine.

0:17:45 > 0:17:48She scared a couple of the customers.

0:17:50 > 0:17:53No-one's seen her since.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55And my point is

0:17:55 > 0:17:57we don't know anything about the person you saw.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01And we should just keep all possibilities available.

0:18:04 > 0:18:06Dad, where's the remote?

0:18:06 > 0:18:07I don't know, baby.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10Why don't you check in the sofa cushions?

0:18:10 > 0:18:14Excluding the possibility that a female Scandinavian Olympian

0:18:14 > 0:18:17was running around outside our house last night,

0:18:17 > 0:18:19what else might be a possibility?

0:18:19 > 0:18:21I'm not done asking questions

0:18:21 > 0:18:24and I don't appreciate sarcasm.

0:18:26 > 0:18:28Do you two have anyone

0:18:28 > 0:18:31who might have a grudge or something against you?

0:18:31 > 0:18:34Maybe a-a church member

0:18:34 > 0:18:38who might not've liked the fact that you left the church?

0:18:39 > 0:18:41I don't think so.

0:18:41 > 0:18:42OK, I was out of line

0:18:42 > 0:18:45with the whole female Scandinavian Olympian thing.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48It's just... I'm pretty strong

0:18:48 > 0:18:50and I'm pretty fast

0:18:50 > 0:18:53and I was running as fast as I could

0:18:53 > 0:18:57and this guy, he was... he was just toying with us.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01There's only food under the sofa.

0:19:01 > 0:19:04Baby, why don't you just change the channel

0:19:04 > 0:19:05on the television?

0:19:05 > 0:19:06I did.

0:19:06 > 0:19:07And?

0:19:07 > 0:19:11The same show is on every station.

0:19:11 > 0:19:13Every station?

0:19:18 > 0:19:21GRAHAM: Bo, turn up the volume.

0:19:23 > 0:19:25'Crop signs first emerged in the late '70s

0:19:25 > 0:19:28'with renewed interest in extraterrestrial life.

0:19:28 > 0:19:32'They died out by the early '80s, dismissed as hoaxes.

0:19:32 > 0:19:36'This new resurgence is wholly different.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39'The speed and the quantity in which it has appeared

0:19:39 > 0:19:42'implies the coordination of hundreds of individuals

0:19:42 > 0:19:44'over many countries.

0:19:47 > 0:19:50'There are only a limited number of explanations.

0:19:50 > 0:19:55'Either this is one of the most elaborate hoaxes ever created

0:19:55 > 0:19:57'or basically...

0:19:58 > 0:20:01'..it's for real.'

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Extraterrestrials.

0:20:10 > 0:20:13What in God's name is going on?

0:20:14 > 0:20:17I did some research after I saw your crops.

0:20:17 > 0:20:19Two or three guys can make a design

0:20:19 > 0:20:22the size of the one in your field overnight

0:20:22 > 0:20:24using just boards and ropes.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26Really?

0:20:26 > 0:20:29That's how these things have been done in the past.

0:20:29 > 0:20:32But there's so many now.

0:20:32 > 0:20:35How could so many people be in on it?

0:20:37 > 0:20:39I can't think straight.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41I'm going to go back to the station

0:20:41 > 0:20:43and have a cup of Edgar's coffee

0:20:43 > 0:20:45and try to think clear.

0:20:45 > 0:20:47After that, I might make some calls.

0:20:47 > 0:20:48But I'll tell you somethin'.

0:20:48 > 0:20:50What I said in there, it still goes.

0:20:50 > 0:20:53Your family has been through a lot

0:20:53 > 0:20:55and the last thing these children need to do

0:20:55 > 0:20:58is worry about some crazy things happenin' in the world.

0:20:58 > 0:21:01Now, take 'em into town and get their minds

0:21:01 > 0:21:04and your mind on everyday things, hmm?

0:21:04 > 0:21:06Good medicine.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09That's good advice.

0:21:11 > 0:21:14And you take care of yourself...

0:21:14 > 0:21:16Graham.

0:21:25 > 0:21:29TV REPORTER: 'The footage you're watching was shot yesterday afternoon

0:21:52 > 0:21:54No radio, either.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56Just for a while.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06As a matter of fact, I think we have one.

0:23:06 > 0:23:08It came by mistake in a shipment.

0:24:47 > 0:24:51Not to engage but to evaluate the situation.

0:24:51 > 0:24:54Evaluate the level of danger.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24Shit, I know you. You're Merrill Hess!

0:25:24 > 0:25:26I was there the day you hit that 507-footer

0:25:26 > 0:25:28over the left-field wall.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30Set the record.

0:25:30 > 0:25:32Man, that thing had a motor on it.

0:25:32 > 0:25:34It's still the record, right?

0:25:34 > 0:25:38Got the bat at home, o-on the wall.

0:25:38 > 0:25:41You've got two minor league home run records, don't you?

0:25:41 > 0:25:43Five.

0:25:43 > 0:25:45Why aren't you in the pros, making stacks of cash

0:25:50 > 0:25:52most people don't know about.

0:25:52 > 0:25:54He has the minor league strikeout record.

0:25:57 > 0:25:58Hello, Lionel.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01Merrill's a Class A screw-up.

0:26:01 > 0:26:03He would just swing that bat as hard as he could every time.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05Didn't matter what the coaches said.

0:26:05 > 0:26:07Didn't matter who was on base.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09He would just whip that bat through the air

0:26:09 > 0:26:11as hard as he could.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13Looked like a lumberjack chopping down a tree.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15Merrill here has more strikeouts

0:26:15 > 0:26:17than any two players.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20You really got the strikeout record?

0:26:27 > 0:26:29It felt wrong not to swing.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43It's contaminated.

0:26:43 > 0:26:46Carl, there's something wrong with our water!

0:26:46 > 0:26:48Your water's fine.

0:27:21 > 0:27:24Is "douche bag" a curse?

0:27:24 > 0:27:26I suppose that would depend on its usage.

0:39:16 > 0:39:18Do you think it could be?

0:39:19 > 0:39:21Yes.

0:39:21 > 0:39:24How can you say that?

0:39:26 > 0:39:29That wasn't the answer you wanted?

0:39:31 > 0:39:34Couldn't you pretend to be like you used to be?

0:39:35 > 0:39:37Give me some comfort?

0:39:41 > 0:39:44People... break down into two groups

0:39:44 > 0:39:47when they experience something lucky.

0:39:47 > 0:39:51Group number one sees it as more than luck,

0:39:51 > 0:39:53more than coincidence.

0:39:53 > 0:39:55They see it as a sign -

0:39:55 > 0:40:00evidence that there is someone up there watching out for them.

0:40:00 > 0:40:05Group number two sees it as just pure luck...

0:40:05 > 0:40:08a happy turn of chance.

0:40:08 > 0:40:11I'm sure the people in group number two

0:40:11 > 0:40:14are looking at those 14 lights in a very suspicious way.

0:40:14 > 0:40:17For them, this situation is a 50/50.

0:40:17 > 0:40:21It could be bad, it could be good...

0:40:21 > 0:40:24but, deep down...

0:40:24 > 0:40:26they feel that whatever happens

0:40:26 > 0:40:29they're on their own,

0:40:29 > 0:40:33and that fills them with fear.

0:40:34 > 0:40:37Yeah, there are those people.

0:40:37 > 0:40:41But there's a whole lot of people in group number one.

0:40:43 > 0:40:46When they see those 14 lights...

0:40:46 > 0:40:48they're looking at a miracle...

0:40:48 > 0:40:53and deep down, they feel that whatever's going to happen...

0:40:53 > 0:40:57there will be someone there to help them...

0:40:57 > 0:41:00and that fills them with hope.

0:41:02 > 0:41:03See, what you have to ask yourself is

0:41:03 > 0:41:05what kind of person are you?

0:41:05 > 0:41:09Are you the kind that sees signs, sees miracles?

0:41:11 > 0:41:14Or do you believe that people just get lucky?

0:41:14 > 0:41:17Or look at the question this way.

0:41:19 > 0:41:23Is it possible that there are no coincidences?

0:41:29 > 0:41:33WHISPERING: I was at this party once.

0:41:33 > 0:41:36I'm on the couch with Randa Mckinney.

0:41:36 > 0:41:38She was just sitting there,

0:41:38 > 0:41:41looking beautiful, staring at me.

0:41:41 > 0:41:44I go to lean in and kiss her

0:41:44 > 0:41:48and I realise I have gum in my mouth.

0:41:49 > 0:41:52So I turn, take out the gum,

0:41:52 > 0:41:55stuff it in a paper cup next to the sofa,

0:41:55 > 0:41:57and turn around.

0:41:57 > 0:42:01Randa Mckinney throws up all over herself.

0:42:02 > 0:42:07I knew, the second it happened, it was a miracle.

0:42:07 > 0:42:10I could've been kissing her when she threw up.

0:42:10 > 0:42:13That would've scarred me for life.

0:42:13 > 0:42:16I may never have recovered.

0:42:20 > 0:42:22I'm a miracle man.

0:42:22 > 0:42:25Those lights are a miracle.

0:42:26 > 0:42:28There you go.

0:42:29 > 0:42:31So which type are you?

0:42:33 > 0:42:35Do you feel comforted?

0:42:38 > 0:42:41Yeah, I do.

0:42:41 > 0:42:43Then what does it matter?

0:42:50 > 0:42:54I never told you the last words that Colleen said

0:42:54 > 0:42:56before...they let her die.

0:42:59 > 0:43:02She said, "See."

0:43:03 > 0:43:06Then her eyes glazed a bit.

0:43:07 > 0:43:11And then she said, "Swing away."

0:43:12 > 0:43:15You know why she said that?

0:43:17 > 0:43:20Cos the nerve endings in her brain were firing as she died...

0:43:20 > 0:43:22and some random memory of us

0:43:22 > 0:43:26at one of your baseball games just popped into her head.

0:43:31 > 0:43:35There is no-one watching out for us, Merrill.

0:43:36 > 0:43:38We are all on our own.

0:44:16 > 0:44:18What do you know?

0:44:18 > 0:44:19There was an accident.

0:44:19 > 0:44:20Drunk driving. They weren't sure.

0:44:20 > 0:44:22He wasn't drunk. Ray fell asleep at the wheel.

0:44:22 > 0:44:23Is he OK?

0:44:23 > 0:44:24Yeah.

0:44:24 > 0:44:28That was the first thing Colleen asked, too.

0:44:28 > 0:44:29She's talking.

0:44:29 > 0:44:30What ambulance is she in?

0:44:30 > 0:44:33She's not in an ambulance, Father.

0:45:16 > 0:45:18For the kids' protection.

0:45:18 > 0:45:20All they were doing was watching TV.

0:45:20 > 0:45:22I felt like they were getting obsessed.

0:45:22 > 0:45:24They should be playing "furry, furry rabbit"

0:45:24 > 0:45:26or tea party or something.

0:45:26 > 0:45:27What's "furry, furry rabbit"?

0:45:27 > 0:45:28It's a game, isn't it?

0:45:28 > 0:45:30Anyways, they closed the schools.

0:45:30 > 0:45:33And there's been some interesting developments.

0:45:33 > 0:45:34What time is it?

0:45:34 > 0:45:3511am.

0:45:35 > 0:45:37They're gone.

0:45:37 > 0:45:39But they're not really gone.

0:45:39 > 0:45:41We just can't see them.

0:45:41 > 0:45:42Early this morning...

0:45:42 > 0:45:45a bird flew into the area where the lights were hovering last night.

0:45:45 > 0:45:47It stopped dead in the air and fell straight down.

0:45:47 > 0:45:48They caught it on tape.

0:45:48 > 0:45:50They've been playing it all morning.

0:45:50 > 0:45:53The footage looks like the bird flew into a wall in the sky.

0:45:53 > 0:45:55They found the bird. Its head was crushed in.

0:45:55 > 0:45:56They think they have some kind of

0:45:56 > 0:45:58invisible shielding, like an optical illusion.

0:45:58 > 0:46:02They're still there...hovering.

0:46:03 > 0:46:06Some people think there's more of them now

0:46:06 > 0:46:09all over the place - over us, even.

0:46:09 > 0:46:12There's a theory about the...the crop circles?

0:46:12 > 0:46:15That they could be some kind of...

0:46:15 > 0:46:20some kind of...landmark, visual...mapping system

0:46:20 > 0:46:22so they could...navigate...

0:46:22 > 0:46:24Coordinate.

0:46:24 > 0:46:26Makes sense.

0:46:26 > 0:46:29DISTANT SQUEAKING

0:46:54 > 0:46:57So the aliens can't read our minds.

0:46:58 > 0:46:59Oh.

0:46:59 > 0:47:01Oh, of course.

0:47:07 > 0:47:09They tell you everything in this book.

0:47:09 > 0:47:12It says they're probably very small, like my height...

0:47:12 > 0:47:14"because, as their brains developed,

0:47:14 > 0:47:16"there was no use for physical development."

0:47:16 > 0:47:19It also says they're probably vegetarians...

0:47:19 > 0:47:21"because they would've realised the benefits of such a diet."

0:47:21 > 0:47:23Who wrote this book?

0:47:23 > 0:47:25Scientists who have been persecuted for their beliefs.

0:47:25 > 0:47:27That means they're unemployed.

0:47:27 > 0:47:30If you're going to make fun of it, then forget it.

0:47:30 > 0:47:31This is serious.

0:47:35 > 0:47:38I don't know what got into me.

0:47:38 > 0:47:40There are pictures.

0:47:40 > 0:47:42Dr Bimboo, one of the authors of the book...

0:47:42 > 0:47:44- Bimboo? - Dad...

0:47:44 > 0:47:47- I just asked his name. - You had a tone.

0:47:48 > 0:47:50He said there are two reasons

0:47:50 > 0:47:52why extraterrestrials would visit us.

0:47:52 > 0:47:54To make contact in the spirit of exploration

0:47:54 > 0:47:56and furthering their knowledge of the universe

0:47:56 > 0:48:00or, the other reason, they're hostile.

0:48:00 > 0:48:02They've used up all the resources on their planet

0:48:02 > 0:48:05and they're looking to harvest our planet next.

0:48:07 > 0:48:09Here...

0:48:36 > 0:48:39That looks a little like our house, doesn't it?

0:48:39 > 0:48:42BO: Same windows.

0:48:42 > 0:48:43MORGAN: That's weird.

0:48:56 > 0:48:58PHONE RINGS

0:49:01 > 0:49:03That's enough from Dr Bimboo for now.

0:49:03 > 0:49:06Everybody in this house needs to calm down

0:49:06 > 0:49:09and eat some fruit or something.

0:49:45 > 0:49:47Ray Reddy's house.

0:49:47 > 0:49:48Why?

0:49:48 > 0:49:51I think he just called here.

0:49:57 > 0:50:01BO: You don't think something bad will happen,

0:50:01 > 0:50:03do you, Morgan?

0:50:03 > 0:50:04Why?

0:50:04 > 0:50:06You have one of your feelings again?

0:50:09 > 0:50:11Is it bad?

0:50:13 > 0:50:16I won't let anything bad happen to you.

0:50:17 > 0:50:19I don't want you to die.

0:52:03 > 0:52:05What happened?

0:52:05 > 0:52:08I wrote your number down to call you.

0:52:12 > 0:52:15It's been sitting next to the phone for six months.

0:52:18 > 0:52:20When I knew it was inside the house...

0:52:20 > 0:52:23I couldn't think of any other number to call.

0:52:23 > 0:52:25I panicked.

0:52:25 > 0:52:28Thank you for coming, Father.

0:52:28 > 0:52:30You're welcome, Ray.

0:52:30 > 0:52:33I worked so long that night.

0:52:33 > 0:52:36I'd never fallen asleep driving before.

0:52:36 > 0:52:39Never since.

0:52:39 > 0:52:40Don't...

0:52:40 > 0:52:42Most of the ride home

0:52:42 > 0:52:45there wasn't a car in sight in either direction.

0:52:45 > 0:52:48If I'd have fallen asleep then...

0:52:48 > 0:52:51I would've ended up in a ditch with a headache.

0:52:51 > 0:52:54And it had to be at that right moment.

0:52:54 > 0:52:58That 10, 15 seconds when I passed her walking.

0:53:00 > 0:53:03It was like it was meant to be.

0:53:12 > 0:53:15I guess if this is the end of the world

0:53:15 > 0:53:17I'm screwed, right?

0:53:39 > 0:53:42none of them are really near water.

0:53:42 > 0:53:44I don't think they like water.

0:53:46 > 0:53:49Can't be any worse than here.

0:53:49 > 0:53:51Did you see something, Ray?

0:53:52 > 0:53:55I know what I've done to you.

0:53:55 > 0:53:58I made you question your faith.

0:54:00 > 0:54:03I'm truly sorry for what I've done to you and yours.

0:54:12 > 0:54:15QUIETLY: All right.

0:54:18 > 0:54:20And don't open my pantry, Father.

0:54:20 > 0:54:22I found one of them in there and locked him in.

0:59:28 > 0:59:32Tell me something, Morgan, er... in this book of yours...

0:59:32 > 0:59:36did they happen to detail wh-what would happen

0:59:36 > 0:59:38if they were hostile?

0:59:38 > 0:59:40Yes.

0:59:40 > 0:59:42It said they would probably invade.

0:59:43 > 0:59:47They would use ground tactics, hand-to-hand combat.

0:59:47 > 0:59:49They wouldn't use their technology

0:59:49 > 0:59:51or fight an airborne battle

0:59:51 > 0:59:54cos they know, eventually, we would use nuclear weapons

0:59:54 > 0:59:56and then the planet would be useless to them.

0:59:56 > 0:59:58GRAHAM: How could anyone know that?

0:59:58 > 0:59:59That's ridiculous.

0:59:59 > 1:00:01What else did it say?

1:00:01 > 1:00:04They said there were one of two outcomes of an invasion.

1:00:04 > 1:00:06One, they fight and are defeated

1:00:06 > 1:00:09and have to return again with full forces

1:00:09 > 1:00:11hundreds, maybe even thousands of years later.

1:00:11 > 1:00:13What's two?

1:00:15 > 1:00:16They win.

1:00:18 > 1:00:20I'm sorry, what-what book is this?

1:00:22 > 1:00:24Is this really happening?

1:00:28 > 1:00:31I heard a theory that, er...

1:00:31 > 1:00:33they don't like places near water.

1:00:33 > 1:00:35Maybe we'd be safe from them

1:00:35 > 1:00:38near a lake or something, but...

1:00:38 > 1:00:40Sounds made-up.

1:00:48 > 1:00:51I saw one of them at Ray Reddy's house.

1:00:51 > 1:00:55I can't be sure, but I got the distinct feeling

1:00:55 > 1:00:56it wanted to harm me.

1:00:58 > 1:01:00So...

1:01:00 > 1:01:04we can choose to believe this lake idea, pack up and go...

1:01:04 > 1:01:07or we can...stay here,

1:01:07 > 1:01:10hide inside our home, wait it out.

1:01:10 > 1:01:14We might be overreacting, but I'm willing to live with that.

1:01:15 > 1:01:18Either way, at least we'll be together.

1:01:19 > 1:01:23All those in favour of the lake idea, raise your hand.

1:01:25 > 1:01:28QUIETLY: Yeah.

1:01:28 > 1:01:31All those in favour of home, raise your hand.

1:01:36 > 1:01:38OK...

1:01:38 > 1:01:39My vote counts as two.

1:01:39 > 1:01:41That's bullshit! You're cheating!

1:01:41 > 1:01:42Morgan, calm down.

1:01:42 > 1:01:44I get two votes because I represent two parents here.

1:01:44 > 1:01:47We don't know anything yet.

1:01:47 > 1:01:50We'll be safe here, anyway.

1:01:50 > 1:01:52I don't want to leave home.

1:01:52 > 1:01:54This is where we lived with Mom.

1:01:54 > 1:01:57That's got nothing to do with this.

1:01:57 > 1:01:59I change my vote.

1:01:59 > 1:02:00You can't change your vote.

1:02:00 > 1:02:03All those in favour of home, raise your hand.

1:02:03 > 1:02:05This is ridiculous.

1:02:05 > 1:02:08You lose - three to two.

1:02:23 > 1:02:27We're going to board up every window in this house.

1:02:28 > 1:02:31How do we know boards will do anything?

1:02:31 > 1:02:35Because they seem to have trouble with pantry doors.

1:04:03 > 1:04:06They're appearing at or within one mile of crop signs.

1:04:06 > 1:04:09They WERE for navigation.

1:04:09 > 1:04:12They made a map.

1:04:12 > 1:04:14They're going to be within a mile of us.

1:04:16 > 1:04:18MORGAN: Dad?

1:04:18 > 1:04:19Yes?

1:04:21 > 1:04:22They think these are stages

1:04:22 > 1:04:25immediately preceding an attack manoeuvre.

1:04:25 > 1:04:27I was wrong.

1:04:27 > 1:04:30They're hostile.

1:05:25 > 1:05:27Don't worry.

1:05:29 > 1:05:31You won't let anything happen to us, right?

1:05:31 > 1:05:33No way.

1:05:35 > 1:05:37I wish you were my dad.

1:05:37 > 1:05:39What did you say?

1:05:40 > 1:05:44Don't you ever say anything like that again - ever.

1:06:21 > 1:06:23There's too many windows in the bedrooms.

1:06:23 > 1:06:24We don't have enough boards.

1:06:29 > 1:06:30What about Isabelle?

1:06:30 > 1:06:33We'll tie her up in the garage after dinner.

1:06:33 > 1:06:35I'll make some sandwiches.

1:06:35 > 1:06:37BO: I want spaghetti.

1:06:37 > 1:06:39We should eat fast, Bo.

1:06:39 > 1:06:41Spaghetti sounds great.

1:06:42 > 1:06:44What do you want, Morgan?

1:06:44 > 1:06:45Anything?

1:06:51 > 1:06:53Now we're talking.

1:06:53 > 1:06:56How about you, Merrill?

1:06:59 > 1:07:01Chicken teriyaki.

1:07:01 > 1:07:03Good choice.

1:07:05 > 1:07:08I'm going to have a cheeseburger with bacon.

1:07:38 > 1:07:40What's the matter with everyone? Eat.

1:07:40 > 1:07:42Maybe we should say a prayer.

1:07:45 > 1:07:46We're not saying a prayer.

1:07:49 > 1:07:51We aren't saying a prayer.

1:07:51 > 1:07:54Eat.
