Anthony looks at one MISSING PERSON FLYER, showing the
smiling face of a young GIRL.

Last seen, December
tenth...Nineteen seventy-one.
Anthony moves the beam of his flashlight to another MISSING
PERSON FLYER, showing the face of an OLD WOMAN.

Last seen, June fifth....Nineteen
sixty-eight.
GINA
Your, your research...
    Anthony turns around in the room, shining the flashlight on
the walls, which are literally plastered with U-F-O and
MISSING PERSON clippings.
    ANTHONY
I dumped all data from U-F-O
sightings into a spreadsheet and
then dumped all data from missing
person files into the same
spreadsheet.
    Anthony moves to a wall, puts his back to the wall, and
slides down, sitting on the floor, as Gina nervously looks at
him.
GINA
What, what...
    ANTHONY
95 percent of all last seen
locations for missing persons were
within a two mile radius of U-F-O
sightings. Some people argue that
there is no plausible explanation
for people to go missing, except
for...alien abduction.
Anthony looks up at Gina.
    ANTHONY (CONT’D)
Think about it. Aside from the
work of a serial killer, how can a
person completely vanish from this
world?
    Gina looks at Anthony, then slowly shines her flashlight
around the room. She suddenly stops, focusing on a MISSING
PERSON FLYER.
GINA
Look.
    ANTHONY
It’s pointless. We might as well
accept...
GINA
It’s the old man.
    Anthony doesn’t understand, but gets up and moves beside
Gina. They look at the MISSING PERSON FLYER, seeing that it
is a younger version of the Old Man.

Last seen, July fourth, Nineteen
sixty-four.
ANTHONY
We can’t stay here.
    GINA
But...you said that going out
there...they could surround us.
Anthony sweeps the room with the flashlight, then stops on a
MISSING PERSON FLYER.
    ANTHONY
They were last seen, last month.
Whoever’s keeping track, putting up
these clippings, must be helping
them.
GINA
Them?
    ANTHONY
The aliens. He’s gotta be
supplying them with...with
specimens. Come on.
    Gina spins around, looking at the clippings, as Anthony heads
through the door. Gina hesitates and then follows him. She
almost bumps into the back of Anthony.
    Gina looks up, seeing that the other students are gone, with
the door open. They scan the room, failing to see the
students.
Anthony and Gina run to the door and carefully look out.
They don’t see anything.
GINA
Why? Why would they leave?
    ANTHONY
Maybe, they didn’t leave.
Maybe...Someone took ‘em.
Anthony is debating about whether to leave the cabin.
    GINA
We, we should see...see if we can
find them.
Anthony happens to look to the side, seeing the back of Chaz,
as he starts over a slight hill.
ANTHONY
(pointing)
There.
Anthony runs out of the cabin and after Chaz, with Gina
following.
EXT. FIELD - NIGHT
    Anthony and Gina run after Chaz, seeing Chaz crest a hill and
then disappear.
As they start to move up the hill, BRILLIANT BRIGHT LIGHT
comes from the other side of the hill, causing Anthony and
Gina to stop, just below the top of the small hill. They lay
down and carefully start to crawl towards the top.
EXT. HILL - NIGHT
    Gina starts to look over the top, then stops, realizing that
Anthony isn’t following her. She turns and looks at Anthony,
seeing that he’s fumbling with a camera.
GINA
(whispering)
What the hell are you doing?
Anthony jerks up, looking at Gina.
ANTHONY
I was going to...
    Anthony stops and looks down at the camera and then back up,
looking at the LIGHT shooting rays above the top of the hill.
Anthony moves tup to Gina and then they both inch above the
crest of the hill.
    They see just the outline of a SPACESHIP, which is above the
ground, hovering, with a column of BLINDING LIGHT going from
the spaceship to the ground.
    Anthony fumbles with the camera and then begins filming.
They watch, as Christina and Yasmine walk into the column and
then disappear.
They see
