EXTRATERRESTRIAL

-Don't shout. -Don't shout.

Sorry, sorry.

-I'll get dressed, okay? -Okay.

Hey...

What?

Do you know where my pants are?

In the living room.

NO SIGNAL

Last night everything fell out of my pocket

and I'm missing a two euro coin.

It's only two euros. You can pay next time.

Don't worry about it.

Here.

Anyway...

Can I have some coffee?

It's burning.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

I'm sorry but something urgent came up...

Do you mind if I make a call?

There's something wrong with my cell, there's no coverage.

This isn't working either.

Hold on.

Mine has no coverage either.

What time does yours say?

-Just past 7:30. -Just past 7:30?

Yeah, the day got away from us.

Listen, I really need to be alone. I'm sorry.

No one around, at this time? Even on a Sunday...

Has something happened? Did you hear anything?

None of the channels are working.

It's been like that since I got up.

What about the internet?

...in a state of emergency.

Please stay calm and remain in your homes

until emergency crews arrive.

Contact them and follow their instructions. Thank you.

Holy shit! What is that?

A temporary evacuation is underway...

There, out back.

-Got any binoculars? -No.

...until emergency crews arrive.

The camera...

This is a message from the Department of Defense.

-This is the zoom, right? -Yeah.

How big is it?

Look, it's turning very slowly.

Yeah.

I think I can figure it out. If I time how long it takes to turn

I can work out its size. Got a calculator?

Yeah, you want it?

Yes, please.

Hey, excuse me...

-Julio. -Oh, I'm Julia.

What a coincidence.

I don't know why I thought your name was Luisa.

After last night no wonder I can't remember...

By the way, where did we meet?

Hey, aren't you worried about anybody?

I guess I should call my family, they're all in Badajoz.

If the phones are working later.

You must have somewhere to go.

Yeah.

Yeah, my apartment.

I live in Hortaleza.

I'm renting a room from some friends of my parents.

I can leave if you want.

No, wait till I find the calculator.

Should I leave after that?

No...

Sorry, what was the calculator for again?

There's somebody there.

Hi.

-Angel. -Hi.

This is... What was your name again?

Julio.

I'm Julia, what a coincidence.

He's a friend...

I think you were right to stay home.

People were so quick to take off.

Where could be better than right here?

Wow.

Is there anyone else left in the building?

Actually, I don't know.

Trucks showed up around nine with the military and they organized

the cars into lines. I think everyone left but...

I don't really know because I didn't open the door.

I watched TV all day until it stopped working.

Is your internet working?

What have you been doing all day? Didn't you hear me ringing?

Where did they take everyone?

I don't know, the suburbs, the mountains...

Not far, because there are more there.

More what?

More ships. Don't you know what's going on?

Angel, is your internet working?

Worldwide they don't know,

but in Spain more than 30 have appeared.

Especially over the cities.

Have you been in bed all day? I tried ringing the bell...

How did you know she was here?

What?

Why didn't you think she'd left with the others?

Because Julia always parks her car in front of mine.

And it was there this morning, that's how.

But you said you didn't go outside. How did you see it?

From the window?

Yes.

No.

My internet isn't working.

No...

Anyway...

I'm going...

to the bathroom.

No, I'm leaving.

I'll call you later, Julia.

I think it's almost...

four miles wide.

Nobody's seen anything coming out, right?

Well,

I think they come down from the middle. That's why we can't see them from here.

What's up with your neighbor? Is he always so transparent?

What?

It's obvious he stayed because he saw your car

and knew you hadn't left, right?

How do you know about all this stuff?

I'm an industrial designer.

Actually, I haven't finished my degree,

but I work making signs, drawings, models...

I'm working on something amazing.

Some friends of my parents... Well, the ones I'm renting from...

They're going to be in a parade in their neighborhood

and they asked me to make this.

It's a float, something like this.

Well, more or less, okay?

And they want a car to pull the float,

but what I did was put the car

inside it.

Sorry, I'm really tired.

I'm going to bed.

See you tomorrow.

It's okay, it's me.

-What's wrong? What time is it? -It's late, almost morning.

I was looking at the ship

and I thought, shit. Anything can happen anytime.

Yeah.

I thought we could take turns keeping watch.

Don't worry, I'll go first, okay?

But what happened?

No, it's just in case.

I'll wake you up if something happens, okay?

-Where are you going? -The living room, stay there.

No, I'm not sleepy.

-Quick, get up. -What's going on?

-Are they attacking? -Get washed.

Carlos!

Julia.

Where have you been?

They were taking people to El Escorial...

Sweetheart, I'm so glad you're here.

They were taking people to El Escorial and you weren't there...

but there were people from this neighborhood.

I called and you didn't answer. And since you had gone out...

By the way, I'm not alone.

Hi.

Carlos, this is...

-Sorry, what was your name? -Julio.

What a coincidence! Like me.

-Hi, Julio. -Hi.

Feeling any better?

Yeah.

You're lucky Julia saw you

from the window. If you'd blacked out one street up nobody'd have seen you.

-I almost did last night. -What happened?

I walked here from El Escorial. Eight and a half hours.

It got dark at Ciudad Universitaria.

I spent the night in a tent

until some jerks woke me up screaming like crazy all night

and breaking windows. Nothing happened

but it was scary.

What's this? Did you draw it?

Yeah, I'm a designer.

Have a seat.

Julio was drawing what he saw outside for me.

It's good. Damn, it's spot on. I know people who've seen it

closer up and showed me photos but you can't see shit.

What's that?

Holy shit!

I heard about a weird car driving around.

It sounded like

a military vehicle, but this is something else.

This is serious, damn it!

Where did you see it?

Out there.

Here? On this street?

I didn't see anything. This is...

I saw it.

It drove right past.

I described it and this looks a lot like it.
