Dr. Okun: As you can see from the repairs, we've been trying to put her back together since the late 1960s. Don't tell me you've had this for 40 years, and you don't know anything about them? Oh, hell, no. No, no. We know tons about them. But the neatest stuff-- the neatest stuff has only happened in the last few days. See, we can't duplicate their type of power, so we've never been able to experiment. But since these guys started showing up, all the little gizmos inside turned on. The last 2 4 hours have been really exciting. Exciting? People are dying out there. I don't think " exciting" is the word I'd choose to describe it. You guys are hoping to fly this thing, huh? You said you can repair their technology. Can you tell us anything useful about them? Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, I mean, they're not all that dissimilar from us. Breathes oxygen. Comparable tolerances to heat, cold. Probably why they're interested in our planet. Hey. Hey.

Can they be killed? Their bodies are just as frail as ours. These two died in the crash. This one, a few weeks later. You just-- You have to get through their technology, which is, I'm sorry to say, far more advanced.

[Gasp] Oh, my God. Oh, my God! I've got to call my brother. I'd better call my housekeeper. I gotta call my lawyer. Eh, forget my lawyer.
