The first 200 lines.
Many years ago,
the once great city of Atlantis ruled the planet above.
But after countless uprisings and costly wars,
King Nereus made a decision to withdraw from the world
and disappear from history.
We built a paradise under the sea,
a world in harmony with all around us.
As the outsiders developed more advanced
means of transportation,
the chances of discovering our underwater kingdom
became too great.
We spoke to the wind, the sea,
and the creatures around us,
asking for their protection from those who live on land.
Yes, as any parasite that enters our body,
we destroyed each and every creature
and vessel that ventured too close.
But the outsiders could never stay away,
leave well enough alone.
In secret, they gathered their great forces
with one objective:
to invade and destroy our kingdom.
But no weapons of man are a match for the Hydra,
our great protector.
Many lives were lost and the outsiders, humiliated,
retreated back to land.
Yet we know the outsiders will return.
They will never be content unless they can own
what is not theirs, unless they can destroy all that is good.
And for that day, we prepare.
I don't like the look of that weather.
Planes fly in and out of storms all the time.
Come on. You barely got any sleep last night.
Just try and get at least a few hours in before we land.
Despite you taking out my points on whale migration,
algae blooms and sea lion populations,
I do know what I'm talking about,
and this is a lot of turbulence.
I only took out those points
'cause we have yet to verify them yet.
We're the first speakers up.
We set the tone for the whole conference.
We're not published, nor do we have any funding.
And they're not gonna give it to us
if we don't have anything to present.
I know, but it's just...
Never mind.
Plus, you slept on the couch,
so how do you know if I got any sleep last night?
Ladies and gentlemen, we're experiencing
rougher than usual turbulence.
Please keep your seatbelts on all times. Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain.
We'll be experiencing some moderate turbulence.
We ask that everyone remain seated
with your seatbelts fastened
until we get through this rough patch.
Thank you.
There's something going on.
We'll be fine.
Look, Sam has gotten us back home safely, right?
Yeah.
This is normal, right?
Yeah, yeah. This is normal.
It's just turbulence.
- Excuse me? - Yes?
This is normal, right?
It's rougher than usual, but we should be fine.
See?
I'll get you a complimentary drink after this is over, okay?
Yes. Thank you.
First thing I'm doing when we get there
is taking a long drag of this bad boy.
Start our honeymoon vacation off right,
then head straight to the beach.
Mm, sounds perfect.
I can't wait.
Me either.
Did you see that?
Remain seated, please.
Hey, wait! Are we gonna be okay?
- Remain seated... - I'm really scared!
- Are we being attacked? - No.
Keep your seatbelt on!
What is going on?
It's just very rough turbulence, madam.
Please stay in your seat and keep your seatbelt fastened.
Justin. Justin! Justin, wake up!
- What? - I saw something.
Captain!
Captain, can you hear me?
Captain, I'm gonna enact the emergency override!
Captain!
That is not thunder and lightning!
Ma'am, please sit down!
Hey, sit down and relax and let the flight attendant do her job!
Thank you.
- Good? - Yeah, yeah.
Oh, my God.
Ah!
Are you okay?
- What is happening? - I don't know.
- Justin! - Midge!
We don't know what's out there!
I know there's survivors out there!
So I gotta go.
Do you see anyone else?
Uh...
Oh, look! I think there's survivors!
Let go of me.
My God! There's other survivors!
Are you hurt?
I think I cut my leg pretty bad.
Have you seen anyone else?
There was Rose back there. I was with her.
There's no one back there!
Something has my leg!
What?
We have to swim! Come on!
Please, help me!
Help me!
Del!
Ah! Oh, my God!
Owen! Owen! Come on, get up!
Help!
Someone help!
- Help! - I'm coming!
Help! Help!
It's my husband!
Please, help!
Okay, it's all right.
We're gonna pull him up here together, okay?
We can do it. We can do it!
On three, we're gonna pull him.
Right here, right here! Grab him right here!
One, two, three...
Okay, again!
We can do this. Are you ready?
One, two, three...
Okay, okay.
Hey, you need to shade his face
so that he doesn't get heatstroke, okay?
- Here. - Okay.
Here.
Look what he did to his hands.
Hey, I'm gonna go look for my husband.
You gonna be okay?
- Okay. - Okay. I'll be right back.
- Baby, you're going to make it. - Del?
It's okay. Come on, wake up.
Del! Del!
Vera!
- Del? - I'm here.
- Baby! - Vera!
- Del! - Vera, Vera!
- Are you okay? - Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm good.
Okay, baby, I got you. I'm gonna get you out, okay?
Hey, hey, I need your help!
- I'm stuck under the chairs. - Please.
Sorry, sweetie.
Okay.
Oh, God!
Hey. What's your name?
Ruth.
My name is Vera.
This is my husband, Del.
I'm gonna need your help, okay?
We need to lift this off him, okay?
We're gonna pull it off, okay?
Wait, wait! You're bleeding.
- It's okay. - Really badly.
It's okay, it's okay. You ready?
Go! Pull!
It's not working!
Hey... are you okay?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, baby...
Are you okay?
Oh, my God!
It's fine. It's fine.
Is he okay?
Oh, my God.
Oh!
- We're gonna be okay. - Yes, yes, yes.
I just... I gotta find Ruth.
Baby, I'm right here, I'm right here.
I gotta find her.
- I'm right here, come on. - I just... I just gotta find...
I can't find...
Come on. Look, baby. We made it to the beach.
Yeah. I can't find...
Is there anyone else?
Um... I don't know.
Um...
I saw a survivor but... they didn't make it.
But we should patrol the beach for others.
What we can do is we'll find some sticks
and we'll make a signal fire.
And we can find some rocks and we'll make a visible message.
Remember, it'll be just like our expedition
