Invasion

Banish our fears.

Uphold and sustain us.

Banish our fears.

Uphold and sustain us.

Clark, it's Bradford. We made it through.

You're all clear to go.

Copy that. We'll see you soon.

Move out, folks.

Jackson. Let's go!

Okay, everyone, slow and steady.

Keep your eyes on the taillights in front of you.

Once we get through the fog, we're gonna rendezvous up ahead,

so stay alert.

- Copy that. - Copy that.

How fortified do you think Camp Pierce would be?

No way to know.

But we could get lucky.

What?

- Excuse me? - What did you say?

I didn't say anything.

Never mind.

What did you mean last night

when you said, "I thought it would stop?"

This "shard" thing.

How long have you had it?

I found it a while back.

It just looked like junk, but...

But what?

I don't know.

It felt special.

It was different somehow.

It felt like it was connecting me to something,

I guess.

Like it was mine.

Clark, you seeing this? Up to the left.

Yeah, I see it.

Looks like we got one of those fuckers.

What's going on?

- -

- Luke? Hey, are you okay? -

The voices. They're telling me we have to get out of here.

Which voices?

There's something out there.

We have to go now.

- -

Everyone, go, go, go!

- -

- -

- Maria! Maria! It got Maria! - Shit!

Maria's gone, Clark! Maria's gone!

Keep going. Whatever you do, don't stop.

- Mom! Mom! - Clark, we gotta go back and get her.

- Stay in the convoy. -

- -

- Clark. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Got one of them.

Tracking us on the right. It's huge. Not like anything...

Hanley.

Clark! It got Hanley and Jackson! It got...

- - Chrissy?

Chrissy, come in.

There's more!

Chrissy, Hanley, come in. Hanley, come in. Hanley!

The voices. They're... They're getting louder.

They're fighting.

- - They're falling back.

Clark!

I'm starving.

Ugh.

We'll find something soon, Alf.

- -

What's she saying?

I think she's saying it's not safe. She's telling people to...

Evacuate.

- Yeah. - What's that?

I know what it is.

They're notes from people hoping to find someone.

Or hoping to be found.

Maybe there's one from Mum and Dad.

What are you doing?

What does it look like? I'm writing a note.

Why?

Because if something happens to me,

there's a small chance my mum and dad might find out one day.

- -

Nothing's gonna happen to us.

We're gonna find Casp.

And then we're gonna light up some motherfucking aliens.

Pen, how much further to the hospital?

Um...

Just another 10 kilometers.

It's gonna be dark soon.

How far to your parents' place?

Not that far.

Okay.

We'll hole up there for the night and then crack on at sunrise.

- Do you think there'll be food? - Well, I guess we'll find out.

This is it.

Must be up here somewhere.

Monty, I wonder how come Mum and Dad

never let us come here before.

This don't look like the kinda place that allows kids.

Little dogs maybe, but...

This is your parents' place? But it's, like, cool.

Look, that chair's like a swing!

Oh, check out the old vinyl.

You miss 'em, eh?

Yeah.

Come on.

See if there's anything to eat.

So, is this what bougie people have for dinner?

Like little bites and things.

No.

It's what bougie people have for dinner

when they don't actually wanna have dinner.

It's just like camping.

You know, I've always wanted to go camping. Like, real camping.

Not in the back garden, but, like, a proper adventure in the wild.

Well, this is definitely proper wild.

What's wrong with it?

There's peanut butter in these crackers.

What, are you allergic to peanuts or something?

No, my mum is. We're not allowed them in our house.

Monty, do you think Mum and Dad are here in Paris?

I'm sure we'll find them soon, Pen.

- You okay? - Brilliant.

You barely ate anything.

I guess I'm not that hungry for stale crackers.

More for us then.

You sure?

You excited as I am about tomorrow?

Yeah, kinda.

And kinda nervous too. You know, seeing him after all this time.

Nervous? About what? It's Casp.

And what if Caspar's not there? Hmm?

What?

You all talk like you're so sure he's going to be there.

But you don't know.

I mean, this could all be for nothing.

- Why are you saying this? - Cause it's the truth, innit?

I'm going to bed.

Now think back. What did you see when you made contact with the entity?

It's hazy.

Like a dream.

Colors, shapes?

I saw a boy.

A boy?

He was calling for someone.

This boy, did you know him?

You'd never seen him before? He wasn't a memory?

If you hadn't seen him before,

what do you think happened if it wasn't in your mind?

It was in theirs.

I was in theirs.

It's incredible.

Doc, how is she?

I can't find anything wrong with her.

So, there's no reason we can't send her back in.

That's not what I said. I said I can't find anything.

That doesn't mean there isn't something I haven't detected.

If you want to send her back in, that's your decision. Not mine.

I want to go back in.

I want to do this.

Well, doctor, I guess it's... I guess it's her decision.

Can I talk to you outside for a second?

Did you see her hand? She's barely holding it together.

She needs time to recover, or else she'll end up like them.

She's fine. You heard her. She wants to go back in.

Of course she wants to go back in.

She thinks she just encountered what she believes to be her dead lover.

Of course she wants to try again. Wouldn't you?

She was in their mind, Maya.

And they were in hers.

What if she dies,

and we lose our best shot because we pushed her beyond her limits?

Okay, enough with the psychobabble. We're doing this. Okay?

She's doing this.

At least let me baseline her first.

Luke, Luke! Are you okay?

- -

- -

Clark.

- Dad? - Clark.

Dad!

Help me.

- -

- Hey, pull him out of there. -
