Hi, Mum. The noise? TV.
That's just the TV. We're watching a DVD.
No, I won't be late.
What? Mum, I'll be fine.
What on earth do you think is going to happen?
Run!
Mum, I'll call you back. What's going on?
Come on!
Help! My ankle!
Ow! Ow!
So...
I leave you for a matter of days,
and in that time, you nearly destroy the ARC
and you turn out to be either a visitor from the future or, in fact,
and I think this is the more likely option, clinically mad.
The former.
But then, I would say that if I was clinically mad, right?
Don't you have security checks for this sort of thing?
Sorry, sir, the machine that checks whether people are from the future
was out of order.
I'll do the sarcasm, if you don't mind.
So, Philip was in league with Helen
and the machine he's building is the trigger to the end of the world?
In a nutshell.
I'll talk to the Minister, see if I can get a DA25, get him shut down.
Well, as daring, last-minute attempts to save the world go, that's...
really bureaucratic.
Do we have an alternative?
Yes.
I go to New Dawn and shut it down.
I gave him the security codes.
He's got the schematics for the whole building.
If he can make it to the machine, he should be able to sabotage it.
And I need you to distract Philip
and keep him away from the machine and buy me some time, okay?
What an awkward silence.
Anything I should know?
No, no, no, no. Purely routine.
Well, thank you. Dismissed.
Come on, those dinosaurs don't chase themselves.
So, Philip, what can I do for you?
Matt.
What if you're not supposed to stop the machine?
What if it's actually your intervention that makes everything go wrong?
I deal with that every day.
All I know is that there's something I have to do
and I really think this is it.
And if you're wrong?
Well, then, I'm responsible
for the deaths of everybody on the planet.
- Jess, what have we got? - Just give me a second.
Okay, it's somewhere in the city centre.
You wouldn't mind telling me what's going on, would you?
James Lester.
You'd better switch on your TV.
A T-Rex is rampaging through the city. It's mayhem.
Thank you. Understood.
What is it?
It seems our little secret's out.
Panic has broken out across the city.
Unconfirmed reports are coming in of a creature running wild...
So far we have reports of at least two deaths.
Not exactly the moment for standing around watching telly.
Matt, I'm going to go and see the Minister. I'll be in touch.
Oh, and if someone could think of a cover story for the 6:00 news?
Okay, the plan stays exactly the same. Jess, you coordinate.
Abby, Becker, Emily, you're on the T-Rex.
Connor, keep Philip here.
Connor, you coming?
The final trials, remember?
I've got a problem in the lab with the prototype.
I'm going to need you to take a look at it.
- Let's have a look. - After you.
So, where is it?
This way.
Jess, it's blocked.
I don't have time for this, get another route.
The only route that's clear is the one place no one wants to be,
the centre of town.
Get me there.
Okay, well turn around and hang a left.
Here.
This way.
Becker, have you found the T-Rex?
Help! Please help!
- You have to help me. - My friend, she's really hurt.
You have to help me, please!
Wait!
Lucy. Lucy.
Please help my friend, she's hurt.
This thing attacked her.
Okay, let me see.
- What's your name? - Jenna.
Are you hurt?
This wasn't supposed to happen. We just wanted to go shopping.
Jenna, me and you are going to have to go, okay?
But what about Lucy?
There's nothing we can do.
She's dead, Jenna.
Look, I promise you, I'll send someone back.
I promise, okay? But we have to go now.
- Okay? Come on. - Okay.
I'm sorry, but I can't leave her.
Jenna!
Jenna, run to me.
Don't look at it, just run to me!
Come on.
Jess!
Jess, the T-Rex...
They're still trying to track it down.
Don't bother, it's here.
Becker, Matt's found it. Baker Street Plaza.
Okay, Jenna, come on.
Stay down, stay down.
Stay down.
Hey, ugly!
I take it back.
These things can take down a fully grown T-Rex.
Eventually.
Well, it's not the coupling transponder,
but then I'm assuming
that's the first thing you would have thought of.
Yeah, yeah, I checked that.
It's the accelerator coil.
That was quick.
It's out of sync.
It's a good thing you couldn't start this,
the whole thing would have blown up.
Right, let's get going.
Ah, I'm... I'm going to check this out.
Jess, what have we got now?
It's a second anomaly.
I don't believe it.
No. No, that must be some kind of glitch.
Please let this be some kind of glitch.
The anomalies, they're...
they're opening up everywhere.
All over the world.
This is it, Convergence has come.
It arrived out of nowhere,
in the vicinity of Junction 16 of the motorway,
and cars are asked to avoid the area.
We're about to make history.
Hospitals are struggling to deal
with the ever-rising number of casualties.
Let's leave the cleaning-up job to the others.
- Good luck. - You, too.
... which can be seen at the bottom of the screen.
This is being set up for people concerned about family.
Call in everyone who's off shift.
I don't care where they are, they're on duty.
There's going to be so many of you out in the field
I'm going to assign team names.
Alpha, Delta and so on.
Matt, anomalies are opening around the world.
It means it starts now.
- What? - Convergence.
Philip must have known it was coming,
so he's built his machine to coincide with now.
What the hell is Convergence?
Multiple anomalies opening simultaneously all over the world.
- Can you stop it? - No. I'm not supposed to, no one is.
Convergence is a natural phenomenon.
I'm supposed to stop New Dawn,
which has been designed to interrupt Convergence.
But what if you don't?
Then it's the start of the end.
Can't I just shoot something?
Sorry.
- Connor. - It's crazy in here.
Listen, Philip, they've had to move your car
because it was blocking people in, we're going to have to wait.
No, that's all right, we'll take yours. Where is it?
Can I just ask you a question first?
Every million years or so, the magnetic poles of the earth reverse.
Anomalies are part of this transition.
In order to survive,
life on earth has to adapt to the new conditions.
And it can. As long as Convergence is allowed to run its natural path,
which it has done every time until now.
You knew this was going to happen.
Yet when I told you about my theory on Convergence,
you just dismissed it like it was nothing.
I couldn't support your theory, Connor. If I had, you'd have become distracted,
working on contingency plans for the ARC.
Exactly. Now we're not ready and people are going to die.
Wrong, we are ready. New Dawn is ready.
It needed to be finished on time and it is.
Philip's intervention is going to change that forever.
I needed to keep you focused.
Now, where is your car?
Follow me.
You will stop him.
Jess, we're on our way to New Dawn.
The whole city's gridlocked.
Sorry.
New Dawn will open a stable, man-made anomaly.
It will simultaneously close all the others,
while absorbing their power.
Just think about it, all that harnessed energy.
Alpha team, what's your status? Please respond.
We're overrun, we're struggling to contain, we need...
You don't know what the consequences will be.
Of course I do.
New Dawn will save the world.
Despite appeals for calm by the Home Secretary,
this seems to have done little to bring order to the panic on the streets.
Look, I know a shortcut, turn around just here.
- There's no point, Jess said... - Turn around, just here.
You can bypass two city blocks this way.
Urgent reinforcements needed to control incursion.
Matt, Connor's taking a shortcut.
I'm in gridlock.
Becker, we've lost contact with Alpha team.
There's an incursion from the Precambrian, can you get there?
We're on our way.
You're going to need breathing equipment.
Copy that, Jess.
I'm clear of traffic, five miles from New Dawn.
Connor, do you read me?
We're here, Jess.
Precambrian era, some sort of carnivorous worm, apparently.
- Jess, we're at the incursion. - We're going in.
Jess, we're going to do a room-to-room search. Ready?
Ready.
Hey.
You hurt?
Ow! I think... I think I'm all right.
- What was that? - Caprasucus.
My leg's stuck. But there's a crowbar in the boot.
No, we don't have time. But I'll send someone to help.
You're going to leave me?
The Convergence won't last long, Connor.
I'm sorry, you know? You know, I really am.
Philip! The machine doesn't save the world.
It destroys it.
Well, you know that's not true, because you helped design it.
And it was a mistake.
You have to listen to me. Matt says that...
Matt is a soldier, a grunt.
He's from the future!
He was sent back because the world he was living in
was dying.
Because of us, Philip. Because of the machine that we built.
I'm sorry, Philip.
I can't let you turn it on.
You have no idea how ridiculous you look right now, Connor.
See, I know that you think you're doing the right thing.
But you couldn't be more wrong.
New Dawn kills everything.
That is pure nonsense.
You haven't given me a choice.
You see, Connor,
I never entirely trusted you.
Don't do this, Philip, please.
You might need that.
Philip!
Jess?
Matt? Can anybody hear me?
My phone, my phone.
Got you.
Matt.
Matt, I've just come from the Minister's office.
How did it go?
His exact words, "The world's in chaos,
"we've got dinosaurs rampaging the streets
"and you're worried about Philip's research,
"have you gone completely insane?"
That well, huh?
The official line is our only priority is managing the anomalies
and the creature incursions.
Unofficially?
Stop him. Do whatever you have to.
Oh!
Blast!
Okay.
Behind every speaker is a magnet.
Abby!
One more time, okay?
- Becker, Abby, - I need you to split up.
Delta unit's last locking device is malfunctioning.
Paper, scissors, stones?
All right.
One, two, three.
Ha!
Guess I'll go, then. Good luck with the job.
Connor, where are you?
- Listen, - I'm trapped in a Jeep.
Just get to Stanley Street car park as soon as you can.
I'm on my way.
I've done the system analysis check.
Well done.
We have to do this during Convergence.
Start-up sequence commencing.
- Okay? - Mmm-hmm.
Pterosaurs.
Right.
Come on.
Come on, come on.
It's you and me.
Hey.
There's a crowbar in the boot.
What?
- There's a crowbar in the... - Hang on.
Nice. I just said there's a crowbar in the boot.
- Connor. - Cool. Pass it through.
It's all right, I'll get you out.
Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!
Are you all right?
We need to get to New Dawn and help Matt.
Well, if Matt's right, that machine is more dangerous
than all those creatures put together.
I helped build this. I need to make it right.
I am so sorry.
Everything that we've been through, I should have trusted you.
Instead I put Philip's word above yours.
- I mean, how could I even have... - Hey.
...done that?
When I put my finger on your lips, it means you stop talking.
Okay. Sorry.
This is the part where you kiss me.
- Shall we go do our job? - Why not?
- Alpha team, what's your status? - Please respond.
Police are repeatedly asking people
to avoid contacting the emergency services.
Alpha team, respond.
Okay, we've got another anomaly, coordinates 44/725,
have we got any units available?
Negative on response time.
- Unit eight, can you hear me? - Are you available to move into position?
- How are we doing? - There are too many. I can't control it.
We need more medics, more locking devices, more people...
- I just... - You're doing fine. Jess, look at me.
Jess. You are the hub of this operation.
You may not get the credit you deserve,
but you do a brilliant job and if anyone can pull us through this, you can.
That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me.
I think it's actually the nicest thing I've ever said to anyone,
including my wife.
- Do you mean it? - Every word.
Now, get back to work before we both start crying and hugging.
Right.
And if it's personnel you need, I appear to be kicking my heels.
What have you got for me in the field?
Preferably something cuddly and vegetarian,
because this is my best shirt.
To be honest, I could really do with a hand here.
- Sure, pass me the earpiece thing. - Yeah, okay.
- Show me which buttons to press. - There you go.
So, Becker, what are your stats, can you spare any men?
Yeah, I'm a little bit busy at the moment.
What's the big picture?
Hmm, not good.
Every time we lock an anomaly, another one opens.
I think we might just about have this one.
Becker?
Nine minutes to initiation.
Wait!
Did you really think you'd get away with this?
Take them out of the building.
Eight minutes to initiation.
I really wouldn't open that if I were you.
Seven minutes to initiation.
- Hey. - Hey.
- Good to see you. - You, too.
He's already started New Dawn.
Initialisation. There's still time. Leave the machine to me.
You cover Connor, I'm going after Philip.
Pterosaurs.
Five minutes to initiation.
We've not got much time, come on.
Make sure nobody follows me.
Okay. Here we go.
Yes! All right...
Who's operating the satellite terminal?
Thirty seconds to shut down.
It's Connor.
Get him down from there!
I can do this.
How do you like this?
Okay. Yeah, we're good,
this is not going to...
Damn it!
Philip's locked me out of the system.
Initiation reactivated.
Start-up sequence commencing.
Um...
I don't know what to do!
I don't think I can hack this in time. There's too many...
Connor, I can't hear you.
I can't...
Connor, can you hear me?
Shut it down!
You've got it all wrong, Matt.
You two, move! Move!
Shut it down now, Philip!
- Have you seen outside? - Shut it down now.
It's chaos.
This machine will stop all that.
Nature has to be allowed to run its own course.
You're about to destroy the world.
I've seen the results of your work.
Is that what you want for your legacy?
There are dinosaurs roaming the streets.
That's what the ARC's for!
The ARC has failed.
We don't need containment, we need radical solutions.
What are you going to do, kill me?
Yeah. If I have to.
I don't believe you.
Gun!
Power to the main turbine disrupted.
Stop him!
Philip!
Yes! Back on.
Philip, you don't know what you're going to do!
I'm nearly done.
Philip!
Okay, I'm nearly...
No.
- Three minutes to initiation. - No!
Coupling transponder. The accelerator coil.
I can reverse the accelerator coil.
I don't believe it, there's another one.
It's outside. In the car park.
Oh, my God! My new Jag's in the car park!
This time it's personal.
Stop!
Start-up sequence commencing.
Philip!
It's working.
Philip, no!
Come on, April,
don't give me an excuse to fry you.
You wouldn't dare.
Shoot it!
Ten, nine, eight, seven, six,
five, four, three, two, one.
Execute final command.
Abby, Emily, get out of here!
Oi!
Have you any idea how much that thing cost?
The only problem is
you believe the world will be destroyed when I switch this machine on.
And I believe it will be destroyed if I don't.
Philip, you've got to listen to me, I've seen this!
You're going to kill everything!
Power to the main turbine disrupted.
Only one of us can be right.
Philip, no! Stop!
No!
Auxiliary power activated.
You think I didn't anticipate Connor?
Connor!
No!
Connor!
No! Connor! No! Let go!
What's going on?
Cheer up, Matt.
Everything's fine, it's working.
Isn't it the most beautiful thing you ever saw in your life?
They've all closed.
- All of them? - Every last one.
Is that good or...is that bad?
We are receiving unconfirmed reports
from around the globe
that the mysterious golden lights are vanishing.
Scientists have been unable to offer an explanation...
