Alesia, we are under massive bug attack.
Request immediate evac.
Repeat, request immediate evac.
Roger that. Alesia is preparing for your retrieval.
Let's go.
This is Alesia. Ready for your arrival. Over.
It's jammed!
I don't suppose you have a good replacement part to fix this.
You're gonna make it.
That's right. You can't let me die.
I'm the only one of your patients that's lived.
Open the airlock.
- Shock Jock, you go first. - Yes, sir.
What the hell? Evasive action!
Shock Jock!
What the hell just happened?
The Alesia is gone.
- Did we just fire on them? - Alesia! Captain Jonah!
Answer me!
Listen up, everybody. We head to the bridge. Now!
Since when is she giving the orders?
Since we boarded her ship.
Just asking.
Bugs!
I hacked her, so she hacked me...
Are you all right, Captain?
You know, if I wanted to run this much,
I would have joined the Mobile Infantry.
Captain Ibanez to the L-6 base.
High Command, this is the John A. Warden.
Johnny, please respond.
Communication is always jaggy near wormholes.
I recommend we position ourselves away from the nebula.
How did the cannons fire? And why target our own ship?
Jenkins tried to warn us.
Carl is alive?
- Locked himself in a bugcage. - And you're just now telling me this?
Look, Captain, if you're ready for a full debriefing,
I'm all for it.
- Hero... - Jenkins found a queen on Fort Casey.
He ordered us to capture it alive.
- What the... - Tell her the rest, Major.
Yes, Major. Tell me the rest of it.
I knew trying to take the queen would result in heavy casualties.
I wasn't gonna sacrifice my men for a bughunt.
So that's why he had you arrested.
But he got the queen after all.
Wait a minute. How the hell can a bug control the starship?
You're gonna have to ask Jenkins that.
What the...
- We're moving. - Where?
No idea. But if the queen is in control...
- We need to stop her from getting there. - How?
Back to the engine room. Shut 'em down.
Negative. Not enough soldiers or ammo.
What the hell are you doing?
- Praying. - Well, keep it up.
We're gonna need all the help we can get.
Now we're back in business.
Captain, you need to take a look at this.
She's heading straight for the Marhsal Helm wormhole.
It'll take her straight to Earth.
This is Captain Ibanez to the L-6 base.
Captain Ibanez calling L-6 base.
This is Captain Ibanez to Johnny Rico.
L-6 base, come in!
This is Captain I...
What the hell are you doing?
If she is in the engine room, then I'm gonna hunt her down.
- I'll back you up. - No.
You stay.
Besides, you'll never be able to fit through here.
I'll be back.
You're not gonna stop her?
She's a big girl. She knows what she's doing.
- Do we? - I bypassed the circuit board.
If we can gain control without being detected...
Strap yourselves in.
I'm not gonna sit in that bloodseat.
Do it.
- She's onto us. - Damn it!
Fire!
General, a Federation starship has just emerged from the Marhsal Helm wormhole.
It's...
It's the John A. Warden.
- On screen. - They're receiving our signal, sir.
- Any response? - No, sir, they're not responding.
Something's wrong.
Why would they head back towards Earth?
Sir, if they keep their current trajectory,
the John A. Warden... Sir, it's heading straight for us.
John A. Warden, this is General Rico. Come in.
John A. Warden, this is the L-6 base.
If you do not change course immediately,
we will be forced to engage.
Repeat, the L-6 base will take defensive action
if you do not change course.
John A. Warden, respond.
Talk to me, Carmen.
The L-6 base.
We've got to warn Johnny.
- Morse code. - We can't use the beacon.
- She has control of the ship. - Yeah?
She doesn't have control of this.
General, there's fire on the bridge of the John A. Warden.
Get me a closer look at that ship.
It's Morse code.
They're trying to send us a message.
"Repeat, bugs in control."
How the hell can bugs control a starship?
Goddamn you, Carl.
Deployment status?
Sheridan, Ishizuka, and the Franklin are heading to intercept.
The Sheridan has taken catastrophic damage.
The Franklin is critical but operational.
Franklin, disengage.
Get clear of the John A. Warden!
The John A. Warden is approaching on a crash course.
Ready to intercept, sir. Main cannon armed and ready.
Carmen...
- Carl... - Commander!
Open...
fire!
- Fire! - Sir, we can't fire now.
They're too close.
- They missed us. - Yeah. But why?
Commander, I have the Warden's trajectory.
It's heading straight for the Earth.
They never meant to ram us. We were just in their way.
This is General Rico to Earth Defense Command.
The John A. Warden is under bug control and entering Earth's atmosphere.
It's what? The John A. Warden?
Rico, I don't care if John A. Warden is on that ship himself!
If that ship is infested, you take it down.
Just give me a chance to do both, sir.
Rescue our men and gain control.
- Rico... - Commander, I promise.
A bug invasion will not happen on my watch, sir.
It better not.
Spaceborne Command, prepare a drop!
What now?
Daugherty, you stay here and protect the Captain.
The rest of you... lock and load.
It's time we exterminate that bitch.
She's trying to crash the ship.
Do what you have to do!
I don't know what to do.
Trig, where are you now?
Trig, location?
Trig, come in.
Trig, respond!
Where are you, Trig?
Central storage area.
- Have you found the queen? - Oh, yeah.
This bitch is disgusting.
- Take her out. - Done.
We're running out of time. Do you read me?
Loud and clear, Captain.
Shit! In that case...
That's it.
No!
Shit!
438. 439.
440.
Trig.
All hands, prepare for impact!
Magnetic stabilizers on!
All hands, report.
Can anybody hear me?
Hero? Anybody?
Lieutenant...
Thank you.
Rico, you're not a trooper anymore. Remember that.
I'm always a trooper.
And if there are any of our men alive on that ship,
I'm getting them out.
Should've known you'd say that. Kill 'em any way you can.
Kill 'em all!
In T minus 30 we'll send nukes to sanitize that site.
So be out of there before we hit.
Don't wait for me. If I'm not out in thirty, nuke it.
Ice!
Holy Man!
What the hell kind of bug is that?
Fuck me!
- I was just starting to believe you. - Fall back! Now!
Troopers, our mission is to storm the wreck of the John A. Warden,
rescue our surviving men and kill every last son of a bitch bug we see.
- Do you understand? - Yes, sir!
We've got 25 minutes before they level that site.
So move fast and remember...
we're not fighting for some rock across the galaxy.
We're fighting for our home!
Commence the attack!
- Over here. - This way?
- Are you all right, Captain? - Yeah. Thanks.
Come on. Let's get to the airlock and get out of here.
That voice...
Purging... now!
Come on, you apes! You wanna live forever?
Kill 'em all!
She still has the ship.
Ice, you guard the Captain.
The rest of you are coming with me.
We're gonna kill the queen and take back this ship.
Good luck.
Don't worry. You'll see your kids again soon.
But those bugs? We're taking their momma down!
- Holy shit! - Take evasive action!
- Incoming! - Run and gun!
Listen.
It's the engine.
Mech, you still have explosives?
Some C4.
Trig. No!
Trig!
Oh, no. No.
Ambush.
Go, sir. I'll hold 'em off for as long as I can.
441.
442. 443.
444.
Damn.
What the hell?
This is what I've been working on.
T minus 60 to launch.
Starting final countdown.
56, 55, 54...
53, 52, 51...
Carmen, get down!
Johnny.
- Are there any other survivors? - Four more.
- Heading to kill the queen. - And...
Jenkins.
- You're still alive? - I can't die yet.
Not until we win this war, at least.
So, by controlling the bugs, you...
I can bring us one step closer to winning this war.
And I can get you close enough to kill the queen.
Then let's get moving.
Let's... negotiate.
Daugherty?
Surrender Jenkins to us and we will let you live.
They fear me.
Maybe they just think you're an asshole.
Fuck off.
Then you die!
These were the last ones I could control directly for now.
- If I could've finished my research... - Then finish it.
So we can end this.
Run.
I said, run!
3, 2, 1.
Launch.
454.
455.
456. 457.
458. 45...
Carl!
Johnny Rico.
I should leave your ass here to get nuked.
- What do you mean "nuked"? - Let's go.
Johnny, the landing ship is here.
I'm coming!
We lost contact with the landing ship.
T minus 50 until impact.
Where's the ship?
No.
They took out the nuke.
She... she's won.
- I still have one. - One what?
The shuttle I used to evacuate from Fort Casey.
- Then let's use it! - She'll never let us leave.
You son of a bitch.
Now, that's not nice.
- Tell 'em. - I set explosives on the main engine.
What?
Mech, you still have explosives?
Some C4.
Good.
If we put C4 in the main engine,
we can blow up the ship and the queen with it.
What? Whoa.
We might not make it out in time.
At least they won't.
- Okay. - Then do it.
- Ratzass, watch his back. - Yes, sir.
So the extraction team's been wiped out?
Just ten minutes left.
Johnny, what are you doing?
Get to the shuttle.
Johnny!
Let's go.
Follow me.
Shit!
- Are you Varro? - Yes, sir.
- Where's Jenkins? - He's safe.
Varro!
Good.
Make sure he keeps everybody else that way.
- He did it. - 59 seconds.
Where's Johnny?
Captain, take us home.
Aye-aye, sir.
You gonna do it or what?
Three, two, one...
Boom.
I thought the good guys and the hot girls always survived in the end.
No, not all of 'em.
Here's to the dead.
And to the next man to die!
I hope you feel better.
Do you realize that you not only destroyed my ship and killed my crew,
but you also put the entire planet at risk for infestation?
My apologies for your loss.
But my research is going to save an entire galaxy.
Just like I saved you.
It was you.
You told me how to find Hero.
Well, that's classified.
You see, nothing can stop us when the three of us are working together.
- Are we, Carl? - Pardon?
Are we? Working together?
Cheer up, Johnny. You're a hero.
No. No, I'm not.
But I met one.
