Hey, hey, watch out. Watch out.
Welcome, my friend.
Great to see you.
Yeah, glad you made it.
This can't be Ajit. He's a little man already.
- Unbelievable. - I hope you're hungry, Adrian.
I'm famished. How are you, Aparna?
- I made that fish curry you love. - I can't wait.
She gets more beautiful every time I see her. Why is that?
Strange, isn't it? But her fish curry is still awful.
You were mysterious on the phone. Why didn't you attend the conference?
- I will show you, Adrian, sir. - Satnam, stop "siring" me.
How deep do we need to go?
Eleven thousand feet.
I searched all over India for this thing.
Used to be the deepest copper mine in the world.
Remember my brother, Gurdeep? He's a student now.
Namaste, Dr. Helmsley, sir.
Adrian. It's just Adrian.
Just don't pour too much, huh?
How do you work in this heat?
You've come on a good day, my friend.
Sometimes it can hit 120 degrees.
You have to come and meet Dr. Lokesh...
...a Fellow of quantum physics at the university in Chennai.
Dr. Helmsley.
So, what are we looking at?
These are neutrinos acting normally.
Minuscule mass, no electrical charge.
They pass through ordinary matter almost undisturbed.
Your message said the count doubled after the last solar eruptions.
That was last week.
But this happened two days ago.
The biggest Sun eruptions in human history...
...causing the highest neutrino count we've ever recorded.
My God.
That's not what worries me, Adrian.
For the first time ever...
...the neutrinos are causing a physical reaction.
That's impossible.
That feels very good.
Please, follow me.
You won't believe this.
This water tank goes down another 6000 feet.
It looks like the neutrinos coming from the Sun...
...have mutated into a new kind of nuclear particle.
They're heating up the Earth's core...
...and suddenly act like microwaves.
Ladies and gentlemen, as promised, no speech...
...just a thank-you...
...because tonight, with your extraordinary generosity...
...we have raised $1.7 million.
Have a stiff drink, because I'm locking the doors...
- ... and passing the hat around again. - It's okay. It's okay.
- I work for the White House. - I don't care.
This is a black-tie event.
Scotty.
Hey. Adrian, I thought you were in India. What's going on?
- I need yourjacket. - What?
I gotta speak to Anheuser. Give me your damn jacket, please.
- All right. - Okay?
- All right, here. Here. - Hold that for a minute, will you?
Hey! Easy, that's a $600 jacket.
Mr. Anheuser?
Mr. Anheuser.
I need to talk to you.
- Do I know you? - Sorry, sir.
My name's Dr. Adrian Helmsley.
I'm a deputy geologist at the Office of Science and Technology Policy.
Excuse me, fellas.
You know that this is a fundraiser, not a frat party, right?
- It's important, sir. - You know what? It always is.
Make an appointment with my... You know, even better:
Have your boss bring it up at the quarterly briefing.
There's a good plan.
I just traveled 20 straight hours to get here, sir.
I haven't slept in two days.
You need to read this, sir. You need to read it now.
Let me guess, national geology crisis?
Excuse me.
- Who do you report to? - Lee Cavazos.
Not anymore.
Alan, bring the car around.
- You're gonna wish you took a shower. - Sir?
You're about to meet the president.
What's going on?
Get that to the office.
No G8! No G8! No G8!
Good morning.
I would like to meet privately with my fellow heads of state.
Mr. Makarenko wishes to have his interpreters present.
Mr. President, I can assure you...
...your English is more than sufficient for what I have to say.
Mr. Presidents.
Six months ago...
...I was made aware of a situation so devastating...
...that, at first, I refused to believe it.
However...
...through the concerted efforts...
...of our brightest scientists...
...we have confirmed its validity.
The world as we know it...
...will soon come to an end.
This dam project will create many newjobs.
The Party and country will assist in your relocation.
Grandma, give me your hand.
- But where are they taking us? - It'll be all right.
Brother!
Grandma, I will send you money.
Who can write?
Who can read?
Who can weld?
Has His Highness had an opportunity to study the dossier?
You must understand, I have a very big family, Mr...?
Isaacs.
One billion dollars is a lot of money.
I'm afraid the amount is in euros, Your Highness.
I put a lot of faith into your organization.
It's a perfect replica, Roland.
There are too many fanatics out there that could damage her.
Just think about the beautiful Buddha statues they blew up in Afghanistan.
Our Heritage Organization has already made selections...
...from the British Museum and L'Hermitage.
I guess she'll be safe now, tucked away...
...hidden in some bunker in Switzerland.
Perfectly safe, Roland.
Only infrared analysis would reveal the difference.
But it's still a fake.
This mass suicide was actually discovered by a documentary crew...
...here in the ancient Mayan city of Tikal.
Now, the victims, and we've seen many...
...are said to have adhered to the Mayan-Quiche calendar...
...which predicts the end of time to occur...
...on the 21st of December of this year...
...due to the Sun's destructive forces.
Thank you, Mark.
Strangely enough, scientific records do support the fact...
...that we are heading for the biggest solar climax in recorded history.
Well, yes.
Apparently many people believe that the Mayan calendar predicts...
...that there's supposed to be a galactic alignment...
I'm a dead man.
I'm a dead man. I'm a dead man.
...it's the end of the world in 2012.
Goddamn it.
Hey, Kate. I'm practically on the freeway right now.
Yes, I'm hurtling toward you as we speak.
Will you relax? Yeah, I'll be there any second.
You know it's a vacation and not a doctor's appointment, right?
That it's supposed to be fun?
You remember fun, don't you, Kate?
Do you remember where you were when it stopped being fun for you?
Yeah. I got it.
Bug spray? Oh, yeah, because it's mosquito season in Yellowstone.
I got a whole bunch. Okay, I gotta go, because I'm in a bad-reception area.
Whoa, man.
Would you look at that?
Sick.
Merrill, I told you.
We have to move back to Wisconsin.
Yeah, but these little mini-quakes are really getting on my nerves.
A little surface crack? You're not gonna be inconvenienced by that.
Right, surface cracks. I got a plastic surgeon for that.
Thank God for those shake-proof coffee mugs, Lisa.
They show the true nature of us Californians.
We'll not bow to these inconvenient things like surface cracks.
If you have a funny mini-quake story and wanna share it, call 555-1070...
- Hi, Daddy. - Hi, baby.
- How are you, sweetie? - Good.
Jackson, what is this?
Please don't call me that. I'm your dad.
Come on.
You're taking them camping in a limo?
Okay, great.
What happened to your temp job?
Oh, you know, better hours, more time to write.
What about sleeping? Have you been doing any of that lately?
I've said it a thousand times, no lipo on Fridays. It's too messy. Hold on.
- Morning, Jackson. - Hi.
- Nice ride. - Thanks.
Guys, have a nice trip.
Remember, watch out for the bears. You know, they're:
Bye, Gordon.
- Love you, honey. - Bye.
- Okay, so, Lil... Oh, yeah. - You tell him.
Tell me what?
She needs to put these on before she goes to sleep.
- Still? - Yes.
Your 7-year-old still wets her bed. That's something you should know.
- I love you. - Love you, Mom.
- Hey. - You okay?
They've been looking forward to spending time with you.
I know.
- So don't be on your computer the whole time. - Got it.
Love you.
- So this time, we hit Japan. - So?
Well, you could visit your boy, Will.
Afternoon, ladies.
- Hello there. - Hello, handsome.
Are you even listening to me?
Unfortunately, I am, Harry.
I heard from Audrey you're a grandpa now.
Would you mind keeping your nose out of my family?
You're cramping my style, baby. There we are.
So he married a Japanese girl. How is that the end of the world?
Come on, Tony. You should at least go see him.
- You see your boy? - Not as much as I'd like.
D.C. is a long way, but at least we talk.
About what?
Life, and how short it is.
What the hell was that?
Hello?
Laura.
Laura, can you hear me?
Roland, is that you?
Laura, they lied to us.
I've arranged a press conference for tomorrow.
I will tell everyone the truth about what's going on.
What are you talking about?
The art you collected...
...it's not in the Alps.
Those tunnels are empty.
I have proof!
Laura.
Laura, can you hear me?
- I'm losing you. Roland? - Laura, can you hear me?
Laura.
Break it down.
- I liked that song. - We lost it.
...going on the West Coast with all those surface cracks.
I told myself, "Charlie, get your stupid ass to Yellowstone. "
I don't want to miss all the fun when it finally blows.
Let me tell you, there's been government people...
...flying in and out all morning, and trust me, they did not look happy.
- Always remember folks: - That's weird.
- You heard it first from Charlie. - Yeah, just when he said that?
What are the odds?
We're not seeing soil liquefaction we'd expect...
...or any evidence of fracture propagation within the tectonic plates.
- In English. - Beside that The activity on the west coast...
...is not caused by tecto... By regular earthquakes.
And these surface cracks have nothing to do with shifting fault lines.
You suggesting this could be the beginning of the Cho Ming operation?
Dr. Helmsley is flying to Yellowstone this morning to collect more data.
We have been following the schedule you established, Mr. Helmsley.
The most important schedule in the history of mankind.
Now you're telling me we have to throw it out?
Yes, sir.
I was wrong.
Do you know how many times I've heard those words in this office?
Zero.
Did you see this?
I'm sorry, Mr. President. She insisted.
It's all over the news.
We are learning more about this deadly car explosion.
The director of the French National Museums...
...was scheduled to hold a press conference at the Louvre this morning.
Coincidentally, his death took place in the same Paris tunnel...
...where Princess Diana died in 1997.
We are continuing to follow this story. We will...
Laura, I don't believe you've met Dr. Helmsley.
I just talked to him, Dad, and he told me...
...that the organization that I work for is a sham.
I mean, why would he say that?
You look just like your mother when you get upset.
Did I ever tell you that?
Every time I get upset.
Daddy, a man was killed.
Honey, please sit down.
Only a dozen people in this administration...
...know what I'm about to tell you.
Dad, what's going on?
An unprecedented international endeavor is under way.
At this point, 46 nations are invested in this thing.
Laura's a smart girl. She'll understand.
That thing in Paris, we're not involved in any of that, are we?
We? Who the hell is "we"? What are you talking about?
We need to do is focus on this timeline. That's what we need to do.
- When do we let the country know? - What do you mean?
The people, sir. They need to know.
Well, of course they do.
Listen, your job is to figure out when this is all gonna fall apart.
My job is to figure out...
...how to retain some semblance of government after it falls apart.
Until then, we don't have time for anything...
...except for doing those jobs. Okay?
Now you call me the moment you get any news from Yellowstone.
Yes, sir.
Cute girl, huh?
- Sir? - The First Daughter.
- I saw you looking at her. - I wasn't looking at her.
Better move fast, kid. The end is near.
Adrian, your chopper's ready. They're waiting on the South Lawn.
Daddy, where are we going?
Going to this really special place that I know.
It's a place where your mom and I used to hang out a lot.
I don't wanna know where you and Mom had sex.
- I'm not ready for that, Jackson. - Stop calling me that.
It's creeping me out. What's wrong with "Dad"?
- Grumpy Grumperson. - Daddy, look at this.
That wasn't here before.
What do we do?
Go get your hat.
Don't you see the signs?
Used to be a lake here.
Doesn't look much of a lake to me.
I know, the whole damn thing's gone.
- Come on, let's check it out. - Great.
Subjects have now entered hot zone.
Who is that?
That's the U.S. Army.
All manner of government vehicle are converging on subjects.
You're in a restricted area, sir.
- We need you and your family to come with us. - Right. Right.
Okay, we're gonna go with these guys.
That'll be fun, huh?
This is wild.
This is really wild.
This is unbelievable. 2700 degrees Celsius at 40,000 feet?
I know, it sounds completely implausible.
Nonetheless, we're ticking off an increase of almost 0.5 percent.
- Per day? - No.
Per hour.
Dr. Helmsley. We've arrested a group of tourists in the hot zone.
Okay, I'll take care of it.
Look, let's get Satnam on the communications link.
We'll try and cross-reference the data.
It's a national park. There's not supposed to be posted fences.
I mean, what's going on here?
We're geologists.
Do you usually go digging with machine guns?
Major, I'll take care of this. Thank you.
- What happened to the lake? - That's what we're trying to find out.
We think the entire area has become unstable.
I think you should take your kids and leave, Mr. Curtis.
You're not by any chance the Jackson Curtis...
...who wrote Farewell Atlantis, are you?
The very same.
It's actually dedicated to my mom.
That's great.
I read a couple of your short stories when I was in college. Yeah.
You know, your father is a very talented man.
- Listen up. - It's amazing. I'm reading your book.
I'm around day 300, the shuttle has just lost communication with Earth.
You're one of the lucky few who bought it.
- I didn't buy it. - No?
My dad gave it to me.
Let me ask you something.
You really believe those people would behave so selflessly...
...knowing that their own lives were at stake?
I hope so.
The critics said I was naive, an unabashed optimist...
...but what do they know, right?
Well...
- Pleasure. - It was a great pleasure meeting you.
Major, could you escort these good people to the campgrounds?
This is yours.
- Thank you. - Yes, sir.
- Take care. - Okay.
He was very nice.
You're just saying that because he liked my book.
Looks like that boy of yours is gonna be smarter than any of us.
What's wrong?
I sent Satnam the temperature reading.
My colleagues in Argentina and Ontario have almost identical data.
It's so hot here, we've had to seal off the mine.
- You've double-checked the numbers? - I've triple-checked, my friend.
I wish we were wrong...
...but we're not.
The Earth's crust is destabilizing.
It's too early.
Adrian, you have to begin the evacuation.
My God.
All our scientific advances, our fancy machines...
The Mayans saw this coming thousands of years ago.
I thought we'd have more time.
Okay.
I want you to pack up your family.
I'm gonna arrange an airlift for you from Delhi.
Thank you, my friend.
And good luck.
Ajit.
We are going on a big ship.
- That was so cool. - Yeah, that was intense.
- The helicopters. - Craziest place I've seen.
- Those helicopters were so cool. - Wait. Wait. Wait.
Wait. Sorry. One question:
What did the government guys say to you?
Well, they don't like us going over their fences...
...and that the whole area back there is unstable.
Unstable. They said "unstable"?
Yeah, unstable.
That's funny.
Let's go. Have a good one.
Unstable.
It's not just Yellowstone, sir.
Temperatures are rising with incredible velocity...
...in hot zones across the globe.
Are you absolutely sure about this, Adrian?
Because once we give these orders...
...there's no going back. You understand that?
I'm afraid there's no longer any doubt, sir.
We have to save what we can. And we have to move now!
There's mosquitoes in here. Did anybody spray the tent?
I'm gonna get that spray tomorrow.
They just like you because your blood's so sweet.
Dad, you said you wouldn't work on your book.
What, Lil'bee? I'm not, I'm not. I'm just... I'm doing something else.
Let me get you ready for... Ready for bed.
Okay.
Did you really need all these hats?
- Where are your Pull-Ups, sweetie? - I have them on.
Who gave you this, Mommy?
No, Gordon gave it to me for my birthday.
A cell phone is something we gotta talk about, you know, as a family.
What family?
That hurts my feelings when you say stuff like that.
Just go away.
Adults get...
...hurt feelings too.
We have a listener calling in.
Bill from Cooke City, you're on the Charlie Frost Show.
Charlie, just wanted to say I love your show.
No way.
...not afraid to tell the truth.
Thank you, Bill. What is your question?
I wanted to know, where is all this gonna start?
Well, something like this could only originate in Hollywood, Bill.
They got the Earth cracking under their asses already.
Our family believes in the gospel of the Lord Jesus.
- We have nothing to fear, Charlie. - Good for you, Bill. Thanks for calling.
This is Charlie Frost reporting live from Yellowstone National Park...
...soon to become the world's largest active volcano.
I'll be right back, folks.
Do you mind if I join you? I wanted to ask you something.
I only got a minute.
Hey. Pickle?
No. I was listening to the broadcast and I was wondering...
...what exactly is it that's gonna start in Hollywood?
It's the apocalypse.
End of days.
The Judgment Day, the end of the world, my friend.
Christians called it the rapture, but the Mayans knew about it...
...the Hopis, the I Ching...
...the Bible, kind of...
Beer?
- Yeah. - So look, I gotta eat.
Why don't you download my blog. It's free.
Of course, we do appreciate donations.
In ancient times, the Mayan people were the first civilization to discover...
...that this planet had an expiration date.
According to their calendar...
...in the year 2012, a cataclysmic event will unfold...
...caused by an alignment of the planets in our solar system...
...that only happens every 640,000 years.
Oh, not again.
Pretty neat, huh? I did all the animation myself.
Just imagine the Earth as an orange.
You lure them in with humor. Then you make them think.
Our sun will begin to emit such extreme amounts of radiation...
Those little bastards are called neutrinos.
...that the core of the Earth will melt. That's the inside part of the orange...
...leaving the crust of our planet free to shift.
In 1958, Professor Charles Hapgood named it Earth Crust Displacement.
Albert Einstein did support it.
People, we'll get it all.
The forces of Mother Nature will be so devastating...
...it will bring an end to this world on winter solstice, 12-21-12.
Always remember, folks, you heard it first from Charlie Frost.
You'd have to keep a thing like this under wraps.
I mean, just think about it, okay?
First, the stock market would go.
Then the economy, boom!
The dollar, boom!
And then pandemonium in the streets. War, genocide, boom, boom, boom!
Bullshit. Nobody could keep that big a secret, Charlie.
- Somebody would blow the whistle. - Every once in a while...
...some poor little sucker tries.
Well, like these guys, boom, boom!
Every one of these guys, dead, dead, dead.
That's Professor Meyers.
He ran the Atlantis shuttle program. Why, did you know him?
Yeah, he helped me with research on my book.
Well, that must have been before his "accident. "
Meyers is dead?
Oh, yeah, two months ago.
He was one of my most avid listeners...
...and he had it all figured out.
Everything the government was doing, where and why...
He even sent me a map.
A map for what, Charlie? What's the map for?
They're building spaceships, man.
Shit, man, I have to go...
...because I gotta get back to Earth.
- But do you got a traveler for the road? - This is my last...
Oh, that'll be all right. But, anyway, I really enjoyed most of this.
Thank you so much.
Hey. Hey, guess what.
- They're selling seats. - Put me down for three.
No, guys like you and me don't have a chance.
You'd have to be Bill Gates or Rupert Murdoch...
...or some Russian billionaire or something.
Keep it down, my kids are sleeping.
Get them out of Yellowstone.
It's gonna get ugly here.
Why don't we make a baby?
We're not making a baby in the supermarket.
Hey, hands off the merchandise.
Honey, women pay me thousands of dollars to handle their boobs.
You get it for free.
You always act strange after he shows up.
I'm not acting strange. I'm looking for the macaroni.
So why did you stick with him so long?
Can we just give it a rest, please? He's the father of my children.
Oh, come on, Kate.
You gave up med school so you could have Noah.
You practically raised him and Lilly by yourself...
...while he sat glued to a laptop writing that junk.
It's not junk. He's published.
Oh, published, right, I forgot.
Four hundred and twenty-two copies.
Did you see that?
See what? Hey, Kate.
Listen, we have to keep working at this, our relationship.
I mean, I don't know, honey. I just feel like there's something pulling us apart.
Gordon!
Hang on! Hang onto the pole!
Kate. Don't let go.
- Oh, my God. - Hang on!
Gordon!
Do you have anything for mosquito bites?
Before or after?
I'd get before and after.
Stop scratching. You're gonna get it all infected.
I had to make a stop at the grocery store.
It's Mrs. Birnbaum. She's my teacher, she's on TV.
Here is Grayson's Market, which was open for business at the time...
...but fortunately, there were no fatalities or injuries reported.
It really is a miracle that no one got hurt.
Hello? Oh, hi, Mom.
Did you see what happened to our supermarket?
She wants us to come home.
is this even possible?
We worked every option through the night.
The good news, consensus is that four of the arks will be operational in time.
Only four? You call that good news?
We can save over 400,000 people.
To me, sir, that's nothing short of a miracle.
But we have to initiate the boarding process now. Thomas.
We don't have a choice.
You have got to convince them.
Listen, I'll try to keep this brief.
According to the latest information from Yellowsto...
- Please continue, Adrian. - Thank you, sir.
The temperature of the subterranean crust...
...that is, the cement that holds our land mass in place...
...is increasing at a rapid rate, much faster than anticipated.
As a result, we've observed extreme polar instability.
The magnetic fields have decreased by more than 80 percent...
...in the last 48 hours.
How much time do we have, Dr. Helmsley?
Two, maybe three days, if we're lucky.
How can you speak about luck in such a situation?
Apologies, Mr. Prime Minister. I...
I meant no disrespect.
I'm afraid the longer we wait, the more luck plays its part.
My friends...
...I recommend we evacuate immediately.
If any of you have objections...
...please speak now.
In the blue corner...
...38 victories, 34 knockouts...
...the fighting machine from the Ukraine...
...the undefeated number-one ranked heavyweight challenger:
Mr. Zultan Balashin!
- Yuri! - Zultan!
I feared you would not come.
He needs to concentrate now, Mr. Karpov.
You shut up when I talk to my boy, understand?
Yes, Mr. Karpov.
Good. That is good.
Zultan, listen to me...
...We are fighters, we never go down...
...No matter how hard they hit us.
Kill the bastard.
Kill the bastard, Zultan.
Ladies and gentlemen...
...let's get ready to rumble!
Zultan!
Yuri, where are you going?
Yuri?
One, two, three...
Caltech believes that the half-mile fissure running through Westwood...
...has released most of the surface tension.
"Life will soon return to normal," Mayor Gonzales said...
- ... at an early news conference. - Okay, guys. Almost home.
Rise and shine.
All right, you're free.
- Thank God. - Mommy.
Hi, sweetheart.
Gordon!
Hey, buddy boy.
Good time? Yeah?
God, I missed you.
Yeah.
- Who wants pancakes? Come on. - Me.
- Thanks for bringing them home early. - Yeah.
Pancakes?
Late for work.
- Yes, hello? - Curtis, where are you?
- Just getting back from vacation, sir. - Good. That is good.
I will send the jet to pick up Alec and Oleg.
Yuri bear, tell him to bring the raincoat for Caesar.
- It's in the Range Rover. - Curtis.
- Yeah? - Get my boys as fast as you can.
I'm hurtling towards you as we speak, sir.
Good. That is good.
Curtis, you're late.
Good morning to you too.
Oh, be careful with our stuff. Don't get your dirt on it.
Idiot.
Took you a while, Mr. Curtis.
What's your problem?
Be more careful.
He did that on purpose.
Hey, have a safe trip, you little bastards.
Now you're laughing, Curtis...
...but we have tickets to go on a big ship.
We will live...
...and you will die.
Folks, did you hear that?
The authorities in L.A. say there's nothing to worry about.
I'd love to see their dumb faces...
...when Malibu and Beverly Hills...
...get sucked into the gurgling maw of the Pacific.
Where they gonna plug in their electric cars then?
- Hey. is this your plane? - Yes.
- Are you a pilot? - Yeah.
I wanna rent it. I'll give you anything.
Here. This is a very expensive watch.
My editor gave it to me when he thought I was gonna be somebody.
I confirmed with my people at Caltech that in the last 36 hours...
...we had basically zero earthquake activity in Southern California...
...which is very rare. Unlike many of the tough characters...
- ... I've portrayed in my film career... - Hello?
- Stop what you're doing. - Jackson?
Listen to me. I've rented a plane. Pack up the kids.
- I'm gonna be there in five minutes. - Plane? What?
We're gonna do our regular Saturday. Noah has music and Lil has karate.
Not that we'd expect him to remember.
Kate, California is going down. Pack up the kids now!
They just got back.
God, you sound like a crazy person. The governor just said we're fine now.
The guy's an actor. He's reading a script.
When they tell you not to panic...
...that's when you run!
Okay, could you call me back when you calm down?
Mommy, why is Daddy so crazy?
...taking the most severe hit in Los Angeles.
Finish your pancakes, Al Capone.
It seems to me that the worst is over.
Mommy!
Everyone hold on to each other.
- No, Lilly! - Hold Mommy's hand and stay close.
Daddy!
Let's go! Let's go!
I think it's safer under here!
Get in the fucking car right now!
Move your ass! Move!
- Come on, kids. - Get up!
- Move. Quick, quick! - Move!
Go! Now!
- Come on, let's go. - Run! Don't look back!
- Come on! - Take her! Get in, honey, get in.
My hats.
Lilly, get in!
Get in!
- Buckle up! - Lilly.
Sorry.
Jackson, hurry up. Look behind you.
- Holy...! - Oh, God.
Get out of here! Get out of the way!
- Move it! - Hold on to those eggs, dear.
- Come on! - Come on, you old bags!
Sidewalk, sidewalk! Tree! Tree!
God. be Careful.
Everybody, hang on.
Oh, my God.
Careful, careful.
Yikes. That stinks.
We gotta get to the airport.
Well, take the freeway, it'll be half the time.
Yeah, right.
Jesus.
We gotta get to the other side of the freeway.
Daddy!
- Dad, look! - No. We're not gonna make it! Careful!
- No, Daddy! - Dad, look. Dad, look.
No, no, no!
It's been upgraded to a 10.9 by the guys at Harvard.
What does Caltech have to say?
The whole city of Pasadena was wiped out , just a few minutes ago.
This is coming alive from Coachella Valley out near Joshua Tree.
That huge canyon? That wasn't there this morning.
And 400 miles further north, Point Reyes, same thing.
The San Andreas Fault is shifting.
Yes. And all major sister faults in the Bay Area.
The whole Pacific plate is destabilizing.
Hold my hand. Stay close to me.
Come on!
- Who's that? - Our pilot!
Oh, jeez. It's our pilot.
Gordon. Gordon, you can fly.
No, no, I've only had a couple of lessons in a single-engine plane only.
- You're the guy. - I am not the guy.
- Trust me, you're the guy. - I'm not being modest about this.
Come on, kids. Gordon's gonna get us out of here.
That plane has multiple engines.
Jackson!
- T's and P's, T's and P's. - T and P?
- Temperatures and pressures. - Go!
- I've gotta do my preflight check. - Let him concentrate.
He has no experience.
Thank you.
- Gordon, go. - Come on.
- Gordon! - Go, go, go!
- We're not there yet. - Gordon, take off.
- Punch it, punch it! - I have to get to 85 knots.
- Eighty's good. - Oh, screw it. Here we go.
Okay. Okay, we're up.
Higher, higher!
Oh, my God.
Lilly, go sit with your brother.
I don't understand. How did you know this was gonna happen?
It is not just California.
It's the whole goddamn world that's going to shit.
I met this guy in Yellowstone, this crazy guy.
He's been right about everything that's happened so far.
And he said the government is building spaceships.
- I don't know what, but something. - Ships?
Yeah, places where we can be safe.
He knows where they are. He's got a map.
Jackson.
Kate, you gotta just trust me on this, okay?
Guys, look.
There's a twist and a turn To each lesson you learn
First you're up, then you're bust Livin' life on a crust
But it ain't the end of the world, buddy
It's only the end of this song
It's been a gas, been a flip Been a hell of a trip
But it ain't the end of the world
Oh, yeah.
Thank you.
You got fans, Tony.
There's a call for you. You want me to take a message?
No, that's all right, Kevin. I got it.
- Hello. - Dad?
Adrian.
Remember when I told you about that dam in China?
Yeah.
It's happening, Dad.
They'd probably shoot me if they knew that I told you.
Nobody's gonna shoot you, son. They need you.
The president has ordered us to clear out the White House.
About time somebody cleaned up that mess.
Where are you, Dad?
What exactly is the course of the Genesis right now?
It's all good, Adrian.
Don't you be worrying about your old man now.
You got more important things to do now.
You know...
...your mom and I, we...
We had one hell of a great life, son.
And the best part about that...
...is we had one hell of a great kid too.
Now, you lookie here.
The Genesis...
...it's a pretty big ship, son.
So don't you write your old man off just yet.
Besides...
...you know I couldn't leave Tony alone.
You know that old fool can't keep decent time by himself.
I love you, Dad.
I love you too, son.
God knows I do.
Kevin, I want a double.
- Harry. - I need a double right now.
Thank you, son.
After 25 years on the wagon, are you out of your mind?
- What are you doing? - Gotta go.
- That's against regulation. - Careful, careful.
- Anything? - Yeah, there's fuel.
Fill it up. I'm gonna find Charlie.
Daddy, wait. I wanna come with you.
- No, no. Lil. Lil, no! - It's all right. Just fill it up.
- We'll be back. - Jackson, hurry, please.
I'm standing here at the highest point...
...of what is the rim of the world's largest super-volcano...
- ... Mount Bighorn, elevation 2779 feet. - Charlie! Charlie! Charlie!
I can only hope that all of you have made your peace with God...
- He's gotta be around somewhere. - Let's go back.
No, no, no. We gotta find Charlie because he's got a map.
It's like a secret map, like in the Pirate movies.
- We gotta work as a team, okay? - Okay.
Okay, come on.
Call Mommy and tell her we're gonna be 5 minutes late.
- Hello? - I need to talk to Mommy.
- It's Lilly. - Sweetheart, where are you?
- Hi, Mommy. - Let me speak to Daddy, sweetie.
He can't talk right now. He's driving really, really bad.
Any minute now, the fireworks are gonna start.
Who is that? Who's speaking in the car?
He's not in the car. He's on a mountain waiting for fireworks.
- Fireworks? What fireworks? - Daddy. Daddy, over there.
...to send all of Yellowstone into outer space?
Good job, Lilly. Good job.
Let me talk to Mom.
- Kate, we got him. - Jackson, bring back my child now.
Okay. You stay here and guard the ship...
- ... and I'm gonna go talk to the pirate. - Okay.
...your race, your country, your god.
Whether you're a Christian or a Buddhist or Muslim or Rastafarian...
- ... by tomorrow we will all be one! - Charlie.
- Jackson. What are you doing here? - Yeah.
- I thought you were toast. - No. Where are the spaceships?
There's no way you can make it there.
We have a plane. You could come with us, but we gotta leave right now.
Fly, birdies.
Fly!
Is this your kid?
Where's the goddamn map?
- We're going live. - Where is it?
Charlie. Focus. Where's the map? Where?
It's in the camper.
Where in the camper?
In the map section on the conspiracy shelf.
Dewey decimal system.
Between Roswell...
...and Marilyn Monroe.
It's starting.
You sure you don't wanna come with, man?
It's so beautiful. I'm gonna stay.
Good luck.
This marks the last day of the United States of America.
And, by tomorrow, all of mankind.
And we will be visible from the Milky Way...
...as a tiny little puff of smoke.
I'm watching the earth crumble before my eyes.
The giant ash cloud created by this super-volcano...
...will first envelop Vegas...
...and then St. Louis...
...and then Chicago...
...and then, at long last...
...Washington, D.C. will have its lights go out!
- That guy's crazy, right, Daddy? - I don't think so.
This is ridiculous.
Been over half an hour. I tell you, the guy's a nut job.
Stop it, Gordon.
Noah, hand me the phone again.
Daddy, what was that?
Nothing. Nothing.
I have goose bumps, people.
I wish you could see what I'm seeing, people.
I wish you could be here with me!
Oh, baby.
Bring it on!
Always remember, folks...
...you heard it first from Charlie!
Daddy, it's following us.
Don't look! Get on the ground.
Get on the ground and hold on. Don't look back.
Don't look back. Just look at me. Look at me. Do I look scared?
Now, hold on, baby. Hold on tight.
Daddy, we're on fire.
There it is! There they are.
It's them.
It's them. It's them.
Mommy!
Jeez.
- No, Daddy. - Hang on, baby. Hang on!
No, Daddy!
Oh, my Go...
- Mommy. - Take her, take her. I'll be right back.
- Come here, Lil. Grab my hand. - Come on, Lil. Lilly, you okay?
Aliens, Roswell and Marilyn Monroe...
Maps! Maps!
- Everybody on? Are we ready? - Jackson!
- Kate, where is he? What's he doing? - I don't know.
No!
- Daddy! - No!
- Oh, my God. - Kate, we have to go.
No. We're not going anywhere.
- Kids, buckle up, we're leaving. - This is my dad. We're gonna wait.
No!
Daddy!
Wait! Wait, Gordon, I see something.
Dad!
It's Daddy!
Slow down!
Jackson, run!
Jackson, take my hand. Jackson.
- Dad, hurry! - Run!
We're running out of runway. For God's sakes, Kate, pull him up.
- Jackson, reach for my hand. - Dad, you can make it, come on.
Daddy!
All right, buckle in. Here we go!
Come on, faster. Faster.
Hang on.
- Go faster. - I'm trying.
Okay. We're good!
- We're good. - We're okay.
So now that you got your map, where are we going?
We're gonna need a bigger plane.
No, you just said that, Mom. Yeah, you just said that.
You don't remember that you just said that?
That's okay. That's okay.
Listen, Ma, I am going to call you next week, same time.
Okay?
You take care now. Take care of yourself.
Sir?
I think you need to see this.
I thought for sure they'd give you an extra ticket, sir.
They did.
But my mother is almost 89...
...she's in a wheelchair, and she's easily confused.
And I am confident that she would want to meet her maker...
...on her own terms, okay?
Yes, sir. Who are you bringing?
Nobody. Who, my ex-wife? Last thing she said to me...
...she never wanted to see me again. So be it.
We need to bring people who can contribute.
The South American continent has been ravaged...
...by a series of major earthquakes.
The death toll is expected to be well over 2 million people.
The devastation in Rio de Janeiro is beyond imagination.
Two 8.5 tremors have left the people in the streets...
...desperately fighting for the last remaining resources.
In the last hour, we received this video from Globo News, Brazil.
Fear and chaos have spread throughout the globe, as in London...
...where the 30th Olympic Games have just been suspended.
Hundreds of thousands are marching towards 10 Downing Street...
...demanding a lift of the information blackout.
We've had thousands of calls. We had to shut it down.
We're receiving reports from all across the globe.
Millions upon millions of distraught masses...
...are gathering in public places, converging in desperate prayer.
Preachers of many religious denominations...
...have taken their message of the end...
...to the strwets all over the U.S.
Repent. There is still time.
Kind of galling when you realize that nutbags with their signs had it right.
All these people out there, sir...
...shouldn't we be issuing warnings now?
Only when the boarding process is complete. That's the plan.
- British Columbia, 2010, remember? - Sir.
Sir, those plans were drawn up two years ago.
Okay. Everybody out. Go on, get out.
Mary, get the door.
Wasn't it decided that people have the right...
...to fight for their lives best way they can?
After we get everyone on board, Adrian.
I think that's wrong.
Wha...? Just wanna tell everyone they're doomed?
There'd be anarchy.
- You wanna jeopardize the president? - Come on.
Our mission is to assure the continuity of our species.
My question: Can I count on you?
Can I?
What?
The Yellowstone caldera has erupted.
The ash cloud will reach Washington in roughly seven hours.
We've got to get the government airborne.
Where's the president, Sally?
Said he wanted some time alone. I think he's over at the chapel.
- He's gotta go to church now? - He's praying, sir.
Which, under the circumstances, is not such a bad idea.
Mr. President.
I need to get you on Air Force One immediately.
Give me a moment with Adrian.
No disrespect, but we simply do not have time.
Make time.
Did you ever meet my wife, Dorothy?
No, sir. I didn't have that honor.
She was in and out of it towards the end.
The night before she passed on, she took my hand and she told me:
"I think you should have a lottery.
Everyone should have a chance to go. "
Maybe that's what we should have done.
I'll be the last president of the United States of America.
Do you know how that feels, son?
No one could have saved the country, sir.
And I think...
I think people have a right to know.
Don't worry, I'll take care of that.
Go on now.
Not without you, sir.
You get on that plane, son.
It's a brave new world you're heading to.
