(male #1)
'Intruder alert.
Towards northeast perimeter.'

[alarm beeping]



(male #2)
'We got us a live one,
with a camera.'

'I think he's from the ranch.'

This is gonna be
the worst day of his life.

And his last.

But make it look
like an accident.

[intense music]

[gasps]

[engine revving]

[dramatic music]

In my sights.
Now, keep this bucket still.

No problem.

[tires screeching]

boosh

(Doug)
'Hah! That's it, Jonny boy.
You got the hang of it.'

(Jonny)
Are you sure
this doesn't hurt them?

(Doug)
No, they don't feel a thing.

[device hissing]

I'd rather be breaking
in one of those broncos.

Maybe next visit, kiddo.

Since you only manage
to drop by every couple of years

I figure you'd be about
the right age by then.

Well, I hope we visit
sooner than that.

(Hadji)
'I enjoy this ranch very much.'

Yeah, easy for you
to say, Hadj.

I'm doing all
the work over here.

[cows mooing]

Geez, Grandpa Doug. How many
of these cows are there?

Only twenty million or so.

Oh, great.

Black hoof disease is nothing
to trifle with, kiddo.

- Boss! Hey, boss.
- What's the problem, Hank?

It's Felipe. He went out
to poke around at that dome.

Argh! I warned him about..
Okay, how long ago?

Before sun up. I can't
reach him on the radio.

I hope you fellas
like choppers.

(Jonny)
There it is!

Yeah, nothing but trouble since
they built the blasted thing.

[whimpers]

How could it be?

It is supposed to be
a sealed environment.

Think about it. It's a perfect
place to hide something.

(Doug)
'Something fishy
going on there.'

'A month after it went up'

'the local Hopi natives
started moving from the area.'

- 'They say the water went bad.'
- Did you test it?

Sure did.
It's irradiated.

My own stock started dying

until I got 'em on an
alternative water supply.

Radiation?

Yeah. We confirmed
it last night.

Reporting at
first thing Monday

when I get all
the evidence together.

Hey, I think I see smoke.

(Doug)
'Hang on. I'm taking her down.'

[phone rings]

- Von Romme.
- 'It's me, sir.'

'Doug should be at the
crash site any minute.'

What does he know?

'He's been runnin' some
test but I don't think'

he's had time
to blow the whistle yet.

(Von Romme)
'It's not your job
to think, farmer Clem.'

'I can't afford
to take any chances.'

Okay, sir, uh,
Mr. Von Romme. I'll, uh--

'You'll hightail it to the
crash site and keep him there.'

You want me to take
down the old man?

Not yet, Mr. Corey.

Just fetch him
so we can find out

if he's been flappin'
his big mouth to anyone.

You got it, chief.

This wouldn't be necessary
if your little leak

didn't get
so much attention.

I-I've got a clean-up crew
on the spill.

Too little, too late, Ryan.

I'm sorely tempted to make you
clean up your own mess

without a radiation suit.

[gulps]

I'm sorry you guys
had to see this.

Felipe was a good man.

(Jonny)
I'm sorry, grandpa.

I came as soon
as I could, boss.

Listen, Hank. I don't think
this was an accident.

It-it doesn't add up.

Looks like he had
a blowout and lost control.

Nah, I don't buy it.
Felipe was too good a driver.

- So now what?
- Simple.

I'm going straight to the feds
and demand a full investigation.

Sorry, boss. I'm afraid
I can't let you do that.

How much are they
paying you, Hank?

Enough.

[Bandit barks]

Uh, grandpa?

Enough chatter.
You're coming with us.

Sure. As soon as
I take care of something.

thwack

Ah!

Okay, now we can leave.

(male #3)
'Enjoy the daylight, boys.'

It'll be the last
you ever see.

(Jonny)
I've heard that one
a few times.

[rumbles]

[all exclaiming]

Ha ha, aw.
Did I scare ya?

Hey! Wha..

[grunting]

Hey, look!

A-ah!

thud

swoosh

boom

Heads up, Hadj.

That was a tough thing
you did, guys.

- It was them or us, grandpa.
- As long as you realize that.

Come on, we have to leave before
more of those creeps show up.

[swooshing]

Here they come.

Turn off your flashlights
and head that way. Quick!

You got it.

swoosh

Von Romme wants
the old man taken alive

and those kids eliminated
if they're a problem.

(male #4)
'Hey, come on. I see a light.'

swoosh

[rumbling]

- Huh?
- What do you mean escaped?

Oh!

Ow!

It's just an old man
and a couple of kids, you idiot.

'Send everything you got.'

- Ow!
- And get this door fixed.

[phone ringing]

Von Romme.

(man on phone)
'The intruders are spotted
in the southeast tunnel.'

Good.

Make sure you get
them this time.

Alright, tough guys.
You got us.

Don't shoot.

[snarling]

[barking]

Keep that mutt quiet
or I'll shut him up for you.

[whimpering]

Bandit!

crack

- A-ah!
- Jonny!

Oh-h!

thump

[grunting]

You okay, fella?

[barks]

Let's go, boy.

We have to take one of these
buckets down to look for him.

Face it, old man. He's gone.

Don't worry.

You'll be with him soon enough.

swoosh

[footsteps]

(male #5)
'Shipment of processed ores
is nearly ready.'

Yeah, well, that's the first
good news I've heard all day.

Von Romme's international
customers will have enough

high-grade uranium to build
whatever weapons they want.

Ha! Look, as long as
they don't nuke my bank

they can use the stuff
to build playgrounds.

(Von Romme)
'First off, it's important
for you to understand'

I'm not a nice guy.

Not too bright either,
from where I'm sitting.

Secondly, understand
that I'll do anything..

...anything at all to find out
what I want to know.

Don't you dare hurt him.

Sure thing, old man.

Just tell me how much you know
about my little operation here.

Then tell me what you blabbed
to the authorities.

Romme, you're personally
responsible

for what happened
to my grandson.

You better be more concerned
with what I'm gonna do

instead of what I know.

You have much
to answer for.

Shut up, kid!

The only reason
you're still alive

'is to get gramps here
to co-operate.'

(Von Romme)
'I'll give you two some time
to think things over.'

They get away again,
and the both of you

go skinny dipping
in the uranium processor.

Why don't you find out
what they know?

Wise up, Corey.

They're too steamed about
the other kid to co-operate.

If I press 'em now, they'll
clam up just to spite me.

My men're more afraid
of me than angry.

We'll see co-operation,
believe you me.

[Bandit barks]

Quiet, boy.

That boss of yours
is some piece of work.

He has no respect for anything
except his own greed.

Ha! You are quite
unimportant to him.

Shut up!

What's so darn funny?

[scraping on door]

[barking]

Ugh!

Ah!

- Jonny!
- You're alive!

- We thought you--
- Guys, please.

We don't have time for this.

That looks like
the only way out.

Hey..

thwack

Intruders.
Sound the alarm.

[grunting]

[glass shattering]

[alarm wailing]

Let's move it.

(male #6)
'Get them!'

(Jonny)
Get down!

(Hadji)
Wait here.

(Jonny)
'Hadji!'

- 'Get him!'
- 'Come on..'

boom

[beeping]

boom

After them, you idiots.
Take jetpack units.

I'll take the express freight.

- Don't screw up.
- I won't, sir.

Your life depends
on just that.

swoosh

We've got company.

They won't shoot the elevator.

- Forget what I just said.
- Hang on!

boom

- Ugh!
- Oh!

- Are they insane?
- They're history.

boosh

[screams]

Automatic!

bam

- Ah!
- 'Hadji!'

Hang on, kid.

I do not believe these
elevators are good for combat.

Get ready to move
the moment we're topside.

They are not getting away.

We're too close for missiles.
Use your guns.

pew pew pew

I've had enough!

boosh

[creaking]

(Jonny)
Let's go!

Ha! End of the line.

crash

(Jonny)
Almost there.

Look out!

crash

boom

boom

boom

(Hadji)
'Very impressive.'

Yeah, for a front.

zap

swoosh

After them!

(Hadji)
This way.

zap

Keep your eyes open.

They're cornered here somewhere.

[grunting]

crash

Take him down.

Now!

thwack

boom

- Look out!
- Watch out!

Step on it.

zap zap zap

Curse you!
Hold still.

zap zap zap

We gotta jump!

boom

A-ah!

crash

[grunts]

I wouldn't waste that,
even on him.

Well, we have more than
enough to go on.

Our clean-up boys
can handle it from here.

Hey, guys, look
who we have here.

(Doug)
'Plenty of chores
where you're going, Hank.'

- Where is Von Romme?
- Over there.

Check out the radiation level
on this guy.

It's gotta be
some kind of record.

(male #7)
'At least it'll be
over quick for him.'

(Doug)
Well, you kids did alright.

Thanks, grandpa.
You too.

[barking]

You tell that egghead
dad of yours

I think he did a pretty
swell job raising you.
