We're not a communist country, Mr. Ambassador.

Whatever you're thinking....

I'm not concerned about the communism.

I'm concerned about our trade agreement.

And the sanctions which are right now being prepared in Washington DC to be imposed against you.

Oh, is that a threat?!

No, it's a reality.

- I thought you boys wanted to watch the sunrise. This is no fun. - Ok.Ok.

Maybe we shouldn't talk about politics right now.

Do you guys hear something?

Oh my god. what could do that to an aligator?

Dios mio..Que sera [Oh my god! What is it?]

Oh, no!

What the fuck is going on here?

What the fuck is that?!

Fitch..

US Ambassador, Arnold Regis was assassinated this morning.

Along with a top Venezuelan diplomat he was with.

Someone blew up their boat.

I need you to get down to Orinoco River in the Amazon base immediately.

Colonel Antonio Diaz is running the investigation from Pueno Ayacucho.

About 20 click down river from the explosion.

He's claiming it was terrorists.

The CIA thinks it could be the start of an Anti-American military coup.

I need you to the check out that river bottom.

And tell me what really happened before we have another Afghanistan on our hands.

Do whatever it takes, and do it fast.

And Fitch...

Yes sir?

Good luck.

Thanks, sir.

We're close.

Very close.

Monroe, look!

We need to get a piece of that to brief to the lab immediately.

Chemical compounds on the boat are identical to the L23 mutation strain.

The diameter of this marks are significantly wider than a normal job.

How much wider?

At least 4 times.

It has to be them.

They must be doubling their size every few days.

No...no...

they are growing exponentially.

If this is correct they may be doubling in size every 36 hours.

See if you can pull a decent DNA sample off the boat.

We have to contact Colonel Diaz immediately.

It is imperative all river traffic must be stopped.

I've already told Colonel Diaz, he won't listen.

All he cares about is keeping people out of that jungle.

And you know why.

Look... if you want to keep this lab opened.

You have to keep your theories to yourself.

How much time until the piranhas hit their next magnitude?

- 24 hours. - At the most...

Then we need to stop them before that.

Jason Fitch, US State Department.

Sorry my Spanish is little rust. I'm here to meet Colonel Diaz.

Come on.

They sent out from the State Department right?

About that boat that's destroyed this morning?

No comment.

Please stop My name is Sarah Monroe.

I'm a genetics professor from UCLA.

I've been working with the ISF for the past 2 years on a hydro biological experiment.

Hydro-biological? What does that have to do...

We increase the local food supply by genetically redesigning certain species of fish

to make them more robust.

I was in charge of the Serrasalminae, more commonly known as the piranha.

Look, I really don't have time to talk about this right now...

Colonel Diaz, I know Please listen.

One of my test groups Lot L23 and it specially bred through secretely large strain.

That I labeled Serrasalminae Gigantus.

They became uncontrollable and had to be terminated.

However I do believe that they are either been stolen or they've escaped.

And they are now breeding in the wild.

This sound like a problem for the fishing game industry.

You don't get it!

They ate those people They ate the whole darn boat!

And if we don't do something in the next 24 hours.

They're going to grow and grow and grow and take everything out in their path.

Diaz thinks I'm crazy.

Here, take my card Come to the lab and see for yourself.

It's a piece of the hull.

Maybe you can convince Diaz better than I have.

Okay, alright.

And be careful.

He's a close-minded paranoid son of a witch.

Come on.

Guns from China, are good.

We don't need the United States anymore.

Senor Fitch, welcome to the Amazon.

Listen, on behalf of my country I wish to express my deepest sympathy.

And I assure you that the criminals responsible for this will be put to justice.

I reserved you a private room here on our base.

I had plan to stay in the hotel Colonel.

Nonsense.

This way, I know exactly where you are.

I'm not a ballistic expert but...

I can't detect any carbon, sulfur or heat of any kind.

You see right over here, where the wood isn't torn, is all serrated edges.

Has anyone suggest that this boat was attacked by animals?

Animals.

You mean like alligators?

Maybe like a group of animals working together?

So...

that's who you were talking to the airport, ha?

That crazy American scientist ha?

Well, she has nothing to do with it.

All she wants is money.

Let me tell you something This serration were made after the explosion, Okay?

From some fish, gnawing at the carbon.

I need to dive the river right away.

Told Secretary Grady that I would.

Well... we don't want to disappoint Secretary Grady, would we?

No, Colonel, we wouldn't.

I make sure I fly you there immediately.

Lead the way.

We are approaching the location of the boat's last radio transmission.

When are we going to land?

We're not going to land.

This is the jungle, Mr. Fitch.

As far as the eyes can see, there's no place to land.

Then why the fuck are we in a helicopter, Colonel?

I need to dive that river right away.

Find the debris if we find out whether it's an explosion or animal attack.

It was an explosion.

This area is now off limits.

Anything to be done here, will be done by myself.

My country needs answer, Colonel.

Your country, what about my country?

You Americans come here treat us like we're from a third world country.

Like we're children We can take care of ourselves!

We're not children, Senor Fitch!

And you can tell Grady that for me.

Entire American protest were seen on the street of Coracus Venezuela this afternoon.

Follow the assassination of the US ambassador, Arnold Regis.

The primary architect of now controversial Pan American free trade condition".

No group has yet claim responsibility for the attack".

Screw this.

You take me up river.

Let's go.

What is going on down there?

They just pulled me out of a meeting.

Colonel Diaz has asked me to remove you from the case.

And he wants you gone by this afternoon.

There's something going on with Colonel Diaz that has nothing to do with that boat disappearance.

That's the river itself.

Maybe a submerged mine, or animal attack maybe gators, or fish.

Fish?

Yeah, fish.

American scientist down here suggested a group of piranha.

Alright...alright. You just keep doing what you're doing.

But send me the report immediately.

Yes, sir.

I'll fend off Colonel Diaz, tell him I can't get you out until tomorrow.

Thank you, sir.

And Fitch That doesn't give you much time.

So get on it.

Look, if I'm not back here in 20 minutes, I want you to call Secretary...

On 2nd thought,

Here 20 minutes.

Call this woman, Okay? If I'm not back, 20 minutes.

- Thank you. - No problem.

What the fuck!

Yeah, Secretary Grady.

I figured it out.

It wasn't an explosion It wasn't terrorist.

It was giant piranha.

Yes sir, giant piranha.

I know...

I will, I'll keep you informed, sir.

Yes sir. Thank you, sir.

So... think a bunch of these can make a boat disappear?

What the hell is this?

Genetically modified piranha, Your terrorist.

There's an inlet by the river, there's a whole school of this thing.

Boat wreckage everywhere.

This creatures?

They're man-made?

The result of an failed experiment.

I found them Colonel, and all we need is figure out how to kill them.

Here... it's the exact coordinates of where they are.

Latitude 5' 48 degrees North, Longitude 67 degrees West.

Now what I'm going to do is to take our fish here to our crazy American scientist friend.

She helped designed this thing.

Maybe she can figure out a way to exterminate them.

Oh, Secretary Grady didn't tell you I'm not leaving today.

Have a nice day, Colonel.

Knock...

Little present for you guys.

Oh my god!

That's the sample we needed.

This thing's incredible.

- Gordon. - Yeah.

I need you to get me a projection of the size, ratio data.

We need to establish migration patterns.

I'm on it.

Are there any of these things left?

Yeah, maybe hundreds

I think they were trapped.

Trapped by what?

Let me show you. I took a picture.

Here.

It's a natural dam separating the piranha from the rest of the river.

Well, that's good...That's good, uh, for now.

But when they get any bigger, they'll break right through that thing.

Okay, fine. So let's put a wire in the water and electrocute 'em.

No, no, no. That's untested results.It could cause reproduction, additional mutations...

Massive growth.

Any number of things.

Okay fine, Let's poison them, drop some acid in there.

No...

You know, there's only one way to do this. We have to reinforce the dam with concrete slabs. We drain the estuary.

The L23 Serrasalminae Gigantus will suffocate.

We'll drown them.

The only other option will be hitting them with much more firepower that we're going to find around here.

I think you better see this.

This specimen has at least half a dozen new organs.

Look, 2 hearts, triple thick skin and it's a hermaphrodite.

It breeds on its own.

This is Fitch.

Listen Fitch, you have to get back to the base immediately Diaz is up to something.

What?

We're not sure But whatever it is, it's big.

Okay. I'm on my way up there right now.

And it looks like the scientists figured out a way to kill those piranha.

- Learn what you can. - Yes, sir.

- And report back. - I'll keep informed. Yes, sir.

I have those projections you asked for.

You better see this.

Right now, the piranha are in one spot.

But if they migrate down the Orinoco, and the other rivers.

This is what happens.

12 hours.

24 hours.

36 hours.

By 48, they reach the Mississippi.

I'm going.

Fitch!

What?

You need to convince Colonel Diaz to start reinforcing that dam tonight.

Before these things get any bigger.

I'm coming with you, we'll take my car.

Yeah, look. Follow me, just don't talk.

Good, we need to speak to him too.

She's diplomat Americano, Muy important to the case.

Okay.Vamanos.

- That was smooth. - I took French in school.

Colonel...

I need to talk to you.

Who is she?

The scientist from UNESCO that I told you about. Sarah Monroe

We spoke over the phone many times, I think.

So that was you.

Well strap yourself in. We're in for a bumpy ride.

Where are we going Colonel?

To a secluded inlet.

You've convinced me, Senior Fitch. Those piranhas were all the evidence I needed.

You're not gonna bomb them, are you?

Of course I'm going to attack them. I'm a soldier.

You need to build a wall to reinforce that dam, and drain the estuary.

There's no time to build the wall.

I'd rather kill these things myself.

This thing ends tonight?

But these choppers don't have enough fire power, Colonel!

Give me 15 hours.

I can have a U.S. Destroyer here with enough fire power to kill ALL those damn fish.

It's working The missiles are killing them.

I want the rest of those helicopters up in the air, right now!

Drop the rest of the missiles, now!

- You can't do this. - Colonel, this plan is FUBAR!

Congratulations, Fitch.

You know this one had me really worried.

Reports up here showed massive casualties along the entire river.

If those creatures weren't put down fast.

Yeah, Thank you, sir.

Diaz quarantined the whole area off.

There's a couple of scientists from Professor Monroe's lab down there now.

Trying to make sure that the Colonel killed all those things.

Good, let's close this case.

The Venezuelan government is not happy.

And there's talk about closing that laboratory and arresting every one of those scientists.

But, that's crazy!

Those scientists were trying to help us.

I know, I'm doing everything I can.

I'm flying down to Caracas tonight to smooth things out at the Capitol.

Relations are bad to say the least.

Listen, you keep Diaz happy.

Don't make any waves, and hopefully by tomorrow night.

We'll both be heading back home.

Hope so, sir I'll do my best.

Ha, Senor Jason Fitch.

Salute...

I hope your time here is well spent, ha.

So they tell me you're leaving in the morning, eh?

Yes, Colonel Secreatary Grady's happy.

Trust me, I'll be more than happy to get out of here.

What happened to that little girlfriend of yours, eh?

She'll be along in a little while.

Is she unhappy that her little creatures are gone?

Nah, I can't imagine that.

Have you been to this laboratory of hers?

Cos you know, I think I'd like to see it.

There's nothing much.

I see You like her.

But maybe she's got some other experiments that might go wrong, eh?

Would you say this is a helpful thing you do here?

Yes, of course!

Our most successful project feed 30% of the people in this country.

Successful projects?

What about your unsuccessful projects, eh?

Well, Colonel, there's only been one.

Colonel Diaz, the scientists here are trying to help you.

And we're sanctioned by the United Nations.

Ah well, the United Nations.

How charitable.

These American scientists have been conducting illegal scientific experiments in my country.

You understand? My country!

This facility is now closed!

Move all the doors, and the windows.

I need you to go Take my car and go!

I'm not leaving without you.

You're no good to anyone if you get arrested. Now go!

Colonel Diaz, you can't do this!

I know who you are I know what you do in the jungle.

Arrest her!

You're under arrest! Arrest them.

Get Fitch, too!

Higgins, I've collected 46 dead L-23s and there's only a few left on the surface.

And that's not nearly enough.

Yeah, I've only gotten about 35 specimens so far.

You're absolutely right. There's no way we got them all.

Hey. Look, I gotta get out of here...

I see one of Diaz' gunboats coming.

I gotta get out of here.

Higgins!

Sorry.

You made it. You're safe.

You scared the shit outta me!

Diaz' men have been chasing me all night.

I think I lost them.

How's the dam hold up?

It's totally blown apart. Nothing's holding them in anymore.

It's no wonder they escaped.

Diaz was using grenades and machineguns to try and kill 'em.

We need a full blown assault.

Come on!

We can't help him.

Nothing yet, sir. They're still in there.

According to the reports, Diaz is planning to move them to an unknown location shortly.

Do not lose them.

This is a real mess, Fitch.

And those fish are still out there.

Did you hear about the attack last night?

Yes, sir 20 men, entire gunboat.

Diaz claims... CIA plot to take over his country.

And Caracas is just along for the ride.

So I'm conducting diplomacy at the I.S.B. installation 60 miles north of Aruba.

You've got to keep those scientists safe, Fitch.

And get them here.

They are the only ones who know how to kill those fish.

Yes sir, I'll do my best sir.

I don't know what you mean.

I mean that the three of you are conducting illegal scientific experiments.

And making up stories about me in order to cover it up, eh?

That's ridiculous.

Believe me, when you get to the Guianas Prison District...

Things are gonna get a lot worse.

Look, I don't care what you do.

I don't care who you work for. I don't care if you're Cartel!

Then sign that document!

Sign it!

Say that you're part of the CIA and all of your colleagues are part of the CIA.

You don't get it.

We have to stay here and kill those piranha.

Before they get so big, you can't stop 'em.

Oh my god! What did they do to you?!

I'll be fine.

Stay there, don't move.

Come on, let's go.

This way, there's the car. Move!

I gotta get you to the U.S. Embassy fast!

Get in!

It's the harbor.

We have to go there. Now! Come on!

Come on!

Come on. Hurry, hurry!

Oh my god!

Come on. Let's go! Come on.

Come on. keep going! Come on.

The Serrasalminae are bigger.

The piranha are heading toward the ocean. You might be able to catch 'em.

Okay. Why don't you guys go that way?

I'm gonna go do more testing on the water.

Alright, be careful.

What's that do?

It detects fish sonar, so can get a direction.

This breed is gonna keep moving.

How are there so many of them still.

We blew the hell of these things last night.

Look, their gestation period is only 6 hours.

They absorb nutrients directly through their skin.

So they just grow and multiply.

As if they were composed completely of stem cells from Serrasalmus zygotes.

Stay here.

Hey, hey. Ey. You're gonna be okay. Shhh-shh. Just relax. You're gonna be okay.

- Are you okay? - Yeah.

I've tested it 3 times.

The fish are definitely headed northeast, toward the ocean.

That's good. That helps us.

We gotta warn all the beach resorts along the coast.

Piranha are fresh water fish,

They can't breath in saltwater. They'll never go near it.

Soon as they reach the mouth of that river.

With that saltwater, it'll be like hitting a bricwall.

Good, now we know exactly where to hit them.

They're gonna be trapped. They're not gonna get away this time.

Sarah, no! He's gone. He's gone, he's GONE!

We need to get you to the embassy. Come on.

Embassy? I'm not going to an embassy!

We gotta follow the piranha right down to the river.

Find someone, anyone to kill them, and bomb them. I just want to kill them all!

Move! Come on, go!

Come on!

Guys, I've worked on the size of these things.

Based on the fish that escaped last month.

The much larger ones we collected last night and the huge ones we saw today.

And?

Based on my calculations.

these things are doubling in size in half the amount of time we expected.

And then doubles again within each growth cycle.

Okay, how about numbers that mean something?

They'll be the size of a horse by the time they reach the mouth of the river.

8 hours after that, a rhinoceros.

4 hours later, an elephant, then a whale.

According to these, I don't see any point at which they'll stabilize.

Secreatary Grady.

What the hell is going on down there, Fitch. There's a warrant out for your arrest.

We just witnessed a massive attack, sir The entire harbor was destroyed.

And we lost Dr. Higgins.

Let me know what you need, I'll see what I can do.

I need you to bombard the mouth of the Orinoco River, sir.

Heavy ordinance, everything you've got.

Right where the freshwater meets the salt.

That's where the piranha will be in a few hours.

Bombard the river mouth? Are you out of your god darn mind?!

For openers, Venezuela is a sovereign nation.

And what I am at add whose diplomatic relationship with us is not doing very well at the moment.

I understand that, sir, but if we don't hit these things now hard.

They're going to grow, and breed and spread up and down this coast till there's nothing left!

This is our one chance to do this, sir.

Alright, alright.

I'm gonna send you a link to our satellite feed that's been tracking your giant piranhas.

Do you need a GPS? I have one.

I'll also send a ship to the river mouth, but just to observe.

At 0950 hours, you send in a personal distress SOS,

and that ship will response outside of official jurisdiction.

Maybe that way we can avoid starting World War 3.

Yes, sir. Hour and fifteen. We got it.

And, Fitch, that ship must be just passing by. He can't wait for you.

That SOS must be set it exactly 0950, otherwise that window is lost.

How long does it take to the coast?

About 2 hours?

Yeah. well, I've gotta do it a lot shorter than that.

I'd hang on if I was you.

Is that a cfuckpoint ahead?

Damn! We don't have time for this. You two get down and stay down.

Guys, make yourselves invisible.

Guys, we've got somebody following us. Hang on!

Where?

- On our six. - Our six? What?

Behind us.

I recognize that SUV, it's Diaz.

Hang on!

Secretary, the USS St. Harper will be within firing range of the river mouth in 36 minutes!

Come on Fitch.

Hang on!

Go faster!

We could if we have a faster car.

I'm going to try to lose them in the city. You two get down.

Mocve!

This just got real.

Okay, looks like I lost them.

Stay down until I make sure, though.

Get out of the car, even you Senor Fitch.

Listen, friend. I don't want to hurt you.

I just want you to clear our names.

This way, let's go!

Searth them!

This way, sir!

This way. let's go. Come on!

We're entering the firing range window captain.

- Has the call come in? - Not yet, sir.

How much time do we have before we're out of range?

1 minute.

The piranha aren't here yet.

They're going to be here any second.

Okay. Get back. I'm gonna call in the strike.

Here they come.

Move!

They're only gonna be trapped between the freshwater and saltwater for a few minutes.

Now's the time to hit them.

I'm trying. I'm trying! This thing's almost out of juice.

45 seconds and counting captain.

They're gonna be helpless if we don't get that call soon!

You two, go over there.

SOS. Repeat SO...Damn it, the battery's dead!

Suck on the battery. The acid in your mouth will give you 10% extra charge.

We don't want to hurt you!

We just need you to help us stop the killing!

Come on, Fitch. Come on! Where the hell are you?

How much time is left?

20 seconds!

You can still clear our names! Working together, we can help our people.

You don't surrender, I'll be forced to shoot you as spies!

5 seconds.

Now!

- Yes. - SOS repeat, SOS. We're at the river mouth, under attack.

- Request immediate assistance. - It's a go.

USS Saint Harper, USS Saint Harper. It's a go.

The call's in, sir!

Fire forward guns.

Do you see the river mouth? The salt water's working.

Serrasalminae won't go near it. I got to get down there to see.

- Fire all we got! - Fire all we got!

Get down!

You alright?

Alright, come on. Let's go.

Are they all dead?

Let me cfuck the water.

Be careful.

There's not a sound.

I don't detect a single piranha, not here, not upriver.

- I think this killed them! - Yeah? - Yes!

I hate to break up this tender moment, but it's not safe here.

We still have Diaz and his men on our asses. Let's go.

Through these trees.

They're headed toward the beach.

Let's send two heli's to pick 'em up.

Yes, sir.

Alright, we'll just move along this beach.

Head up the coast. I can get us an evac from there.

It should be easily accessible.

Oh no...

Oh no...

Oh no!

They can live in the ocean?!

What the hell is that?

- Reverse engine! - Reverse engines!

- Ready to depth charges! - Depth charges activated!

Drop the charges!

- Right full rudder! - Right full rudder!

- All men! Prepare to abandon ship! - All men! Prepare to abandon ship!

USS St. Harper is destroyed.

The piranhas are in the ocean and on the move...

God help us all.

They're just going to keep growing...

They're just gonna keep growing and growing, and there's nothing we can do about it.

There's just n we can do.

There's nothing we can do about it. There's just nothing we can do about this.

- There's just nothing we can do.. - Hey, hey. I need you a 100%.

You're the only one who can help me stop these things.

Okay?

Come on. Let's go.

You too Gordon, move out.

Wait here.

Where are you going?

I'm going to get us a helicopter.

Stay down.

Let's get to the chopper.

Hurry!

I thought you knew how to fly one of these things.

I do. They're just all a little bit different. Hold on.

I think we're being followed.

I see him.

I see them! The piranhas, they're headed to the ocean!

So down there if they can live in saltwater, anything else I should know?

Well...They don't sleep, they have three stomachs, and...

Hang on!

They're firing at us?! I thought they wanted us alive!

Yeah, but things change.

Come on.

Turn, turn, turn!

Incoming.

Shoot him!

Diaz is flying west.

Good, let them.

We got bigger problems to deal with.

What direction are the piranhas going?

Out. Straight out to the ocean, to the east.

Okay, then we're gonna head north.

North?! Why north?

We should go back to the shore then. It's all ocean.

Why back there? To be arrested again?

No, there's a closer place that we can go to.

Besides, we wouldn't make it back to shore.

We took a bullet. Fuel line's leaking.

Maybe I can rig something.

Good. We're running on fumes here, guys!

There's got to be a can or something in here.

Hope so. Sure would suck to die because we ran out of gas.

Well, I got you into this mess. Least I can do is try to get you out.

There's an oxygen tank.

I could use this.

No, no, no. You can't use that! This is a combustion engine.

It needs be gasoline, kerosene, anything that can burn.

Yeah, I know. I can make anything burn.

Okay, well, you know what? Please do it fast, because we are going down.

Okay, I got it. Ready for a boost?

Hit it!

Hey, Screw science, you guys should be working for NASCAR.

This is only gonna last a few minutes.

That's okay. A few minutes is all I need.

Look, there it is.

What's that?

It's the I.S.B. military installation, Western Hemisphere.

Pretty sweet, huh?

Hang on, we're going down.

There're only four of these installations in the entire world.

Each one houses 200,000 refuges in case of emergency.

Emergency like what? Nuclear war?

That or a planet killing meteor, super volcano blast...

- Okay, we got it. - A thousand year mega ice age...

Welcome back, sir.

What are you? Some kind of bigwig?

Nah. I'm just an analyst.

The first thing we're gonna do is meet with Secretary Bob Grady and some others.

They're gonna ask you direct questions. Just give them direct answers.

Just think of everybody here as average, normal people.

- Glad to be back, sir! - At ease, gentleman.

The longer we stand here, the bigger the Serrasalmus are getting.

And if they decide to change direction, this island is right in their path.

We are in an impenetrable fortress, Professor.

Surrounded by aircraft carriers and missile cruisers.

I've seen what they can do to your missile cruisers.

We have a lot of firepower.

Trust me, you don't have enough.

And in a few hours, you're gonna need twice as much as you need right now.

Yeah, you need to listen. She's right.

You need to hit these things hard and fast with everything you got right now.

I agree with Professor Monroe.

She's the expert, she knows the enemy.

Now, our experts are tracking the entire group of giant piranha traveling in an arc east to due north.

That puts them in Southern Florida by later this afternoon.

So, what could we expect?

Will they stop? Do they sleep?

No. These organisms are on a very simple program to create as much protein meat as possible.

They eat, they grow, they multiply. And they will never ever stop.

Oh, we're gonna stop them alright.

But the Greenpeacers don't like the way we do it.

What does that mean?

We have a nuclear submarine set to intercept the piranha in one hour.

As soon as those creatures are far enough away from land, we nuke 'em.

20 kilo tones.

Enough to wipe out New York City.

If you want my opinion as a Greenpeacer, I'll double that amount.

Where are the piranhas now?

The satellites are tracking them as we speak.

I have a visual!

I'll put it on the front screen.

Godspeed.

We'll be in prime position at any second!

They should have doubled the kilotons.

Target is in optimal range in 10 seconds.

9,8,7.....3. 2. 1

Locked on target.

Fire!

Any sign of life?

Nothing yet.

Jesus.

No, no. It's not possible!

Tell that sub to get out of there.

Get out!

Remove yourself from the target path immediately!

I repeat!

What did he say?

It's not clear, sir.

Do we have a visual yet?

No captain, radioactivity is steering off sensors.

Let's go up to the surface and see what's going on.

I have a visual, sir!

Put her on screen.

How long before they reach Southern Florida?

Less in a hour.

Not enough time for an evacuation.

I need a private line to the President. I'll take it in my room.

Right away, sir.

Excuse me.

Mr. Secretary.

What is it?

What you not telling us?

I have been authorized to order a full nuclear assault.

Maybe a hundred times what we just saw.

Enough to disintegrate the land, everything on it.

And boil up all the water in and around the Florida panhandle.

We just saw those things absorb that last detonation like it was nothing and move on.

Well, they won't move on from the next one.

There's got to be another way.

You got a better plan?

Yeah.

When I dove that river in Venezuela,

I was attacked by a bunch of these things, about two feet long.

I was able to cut one of these things with my knife.

And as soon as I think it started to bleed, all the other fish forgot about me and attacked the thing.

Tore it to pieces.

Now, What if we can make those big ones bleed like that?

- Maybe they'll turn on each other. - But how?

We're not even making 'em bleed with bombs and missiles.

Very precise hits, like a surgeon.

But you'd have to go down with other divers for that, swim right alongside them.

Hit 'em in the eyes or something.

Exactly, right in the eyes.

Me and a bunch of other divers. There's got to be a dozen Seals here.

We can do it.

Let me try... I won't let you down.

But you'll be killed, like everyone else.

It's better than the alternative.

Mr. Secretary...Bob.

Let us do it. Just give us this one last chance.

Okay, Fitch. You got it. One last chance.

This is Jane Fisher coming live from Southern Florida, where there has been a massive naval response to

What they're saying is a hurricane warning. People have been told to stay in their homes.

We'll keep you updated as we know more.

Cut.

Oh, my goodness. I mean, can you believe this? It is such a beautiful day.

Like there's really gonna be a hurricane. I mean...What a dud of a story.

Loudspeaker: Everyone stay at your home. A storm is approaching. - did you get that?

- Do not attempt to go.onto the streets...- Get the camera back up.

- Stay away fromthe beaches... - Look at the truck. Focus on the truck.

And the water... - Make sure you're getting the picture and you getting the sound, what they're saying.

This is the MK-15, the most powerful handheld, underwater cannon in the world.

It fires 120 rounds per minute. Fully functional up to a depth of 675 feet.

If you are approached, fire. If you are uncertain, fire.

And if you are retreating, fire.

This cartridge holds 20mm armor piercing rounds.

There's also another cartridge that holds high-powered penetration bombs.

This ammunition was designed for one purpose to take down a nucular sub.

So, consider yourself a good match against these fish. And that's exactly what they are.

Nothing but fish.

Yeah! yeah! yeah!

- I have something for you. - Team Leader: Next, we talk about the drop zone.

What is it?

Inside, this contains six frequency amplifiers.

They mimic the Serrasalmus pitch for "I found food".

Just push the button inside to fire, in case you're trapped.

The fish'll follow the sound.

Thank you.

And keep in contact, okay, with the communicator.

I will.

Team Leader: Fitch!

I got to go.

Team Leader: We are three clicks away from the entry point. Just follow my directions.

And make through this mission one piece, genglemen.

The giant piranha are approaching the outer Keys from the east.

- Let's do it. - Load 'em in.

Load in, load in! The operation is a go. I repeat, the operation is a GO.

Alright, lets go, move on. Pile in, pile in!

Let's go, go, go, go!

All the way, Pile in..No.no..Next chopper, next chopper.

Let's go. Keep going.

Take her up!

What's that?

It's a dinner bell.

Radio test, Baker.

Baker here. Good test.

- Radio test, Gordon. - Gordon here. Good test.

- Radio test, Fitch. - Fitch here. Good test.

Radio test, Rodriquez.

Rodriguez here. Good test.

Alright everybody. T-minus three minutes until we hit the drop zone.

We're gonna get as close to the shore to attack as possible,

So when we hit the water, we will be firing.

Be prepared.

Look down there!

Shit!

You should see what they can do with a town.

- You see that? - I see it.

Hey, didn't I tell you two to stay off the pier?

Shhh! Shhh! I think It's got a big one this time.

Bernie! Steph?

Ohh.

Heat up that frying pan, my friend, 'cause this baby's big enough for three.

Reports from South Florida. The piranhas have reached the Keys.

We need those Navy Seals in the water now! Now, now!

Alright now, let's gear up!

News reports are coming in from Key West.

I'll put it on the screen.

This is Jane Fisher reporting to you, live from Southern Florida,

Where there was a recent hurricane warning.

There is no hurricane. I repeat, there is no hurricane!

Instead, Florida is being attacked by giant fish.

That is correct. Giant fish with teeth. They are consuming everything in their path.

They just ate a boat. You can see people behind me, running away from the shore.

This is absolutely monstrous!

We're gonna try and move closer for you to get a better picture.

Move in! AHHHH!

Clear out!

We lost the feed.

Ahhhhh!

Alright, we're coming to the drop zone! Final check. Get your gear.

Take some BCs and line up by the door. Let's go!

Fitch: There's no blood coming out of their eyes! Any suggestions?

Team Leader: This isn't working.

We're losing men fast, and the ammunition isn't penetrating their scales.

Fitch, are you there?

This is Fitch.

Some Serrasalmus don't have regular blood vessels in their eyes.

Try hitting them in their gills, deep inside, where there's veins.

Fitch: Copy that. We'll hit them in the gills!

Team Leader: Okay now! Let's move! Let's move!

Fitch! He's to your five!

Fitch: Fire into the gills.

Fitch: Hit him into the gills like she said!

Monroe, the gills aren't opening. We can't shoot them!

- Fitch, Fitch! Don't go! - Yes Sir.

That's it. Get your men outta there. I'm ordering the nuclear strike!

No, sir! We can't nuke the Florida Panhandle. There has to be the other option!

We tried it your way! I'm giving the order. You come in now!

You know I can't do that, sir! There's gotta be another way!
