It's been a week since the greatest
disaster the world has ever seen.

A week since people all around the world
simply vanished off the face of the earth.

People everywhere are still
struggling to come to terms with

the reality of what has
happened. Actual numbers may not

be known for years, but initial
estimates are in the hundreds of millions.

Even more unbelievable
and terrifying is the fact that

every child from every
country is among the missing.

For those of us who
have been left behind,

we are living in a world
of chaos and confusion.

Physical devastation is catastrophic and
the cleanup process has only just begun.

With everything
from driverless cars to

crashing planes
inflicting their destruction

across the planet the death
toll is sure to be astronomical.

But the post disaster
cleanup is not the only issue

facing over strained
governments around the world...

Look at this. Young,
energetic, honest.

And with shock, grief and fear
being the dominant emotions,

countless numbers
are choosing su1c1de...

People trust him.

You're right Mr. Secretary
General, they do.

How many times must
I tell you, Nicolae is

fine. After all, we are
on the same team here.

And I want him to join us.

The situation is
even more serious.

My friends, I can only
sit here before you now

and tell you that for the
first time in my career,

I honestly don't know what
to say or even where to begin.

I can only ask each
one of you to be strong.

This is Buck Williams reporting live
from Chicago. Good night and God Bless.

Well he's sure managing to hold it
together. I don't know how he does it.

He told me the secret's not
being calm, it's looking calm.

At least he's not afraid
to say how he feels.

(g*nshots)

Man, you didn't
have to k*ll them!

Back off.

You know who this is?

Oh yeah.

They were just kids!

Breaking into a van. Gimme a break. Hey,
what difference does it make? Look around.

Let's get outta here.

Oh come on. There is a
huge spiritual void out there.

It's only natural that people are going
to try to return to the ancient symbols of

their religion to find answers. You
can't just shut down the Wailing Wall.

But it's being described
as a safety precaution.

Yes, yes, the UN did shut down
one of the world's holiest sites.

But look what happened.
Three men were burned

to death. Did they
have any other choice?

But what really happened?
How did they die?

People don't just burn to
death in the middle of the day.

And why weren't there any
arrests, I mean, all the UN

has said was that it was
under mysterious circumstances.

Now don't we have
the right to know more?

Mr. Williams, you alright?

Yeah, I'm doing good.
How 'bout you, Joe?

Oh, there's someone waiting
for you. A Mr. Steve Plank.

Buck Williams. Hey.

Hey Steve.

You know, for a reporter you're
a pretty tough guy to track down.

Yeah, well what
are you doing here?

Listen, Buck, Nicolae
Carpathia wants to see you.

Really, why?

No idea, but he
asked me to find you

personally. Now you
can contact him at the UN.

Alright, I'll get to this a
little later this afternoon.

Now Buck, don't let this
thing sit on your desk, okay?

I promised him you'd call him
right back. I gotta go, you call him.

Alright.

Okay, now on a
slightly different track.

What's your reaction
to Rabbi Ben-Judah,

who's perhaps the world's
leading religious scholar,

who claims he's going to announce the
single biggest piece of news in history.

You have now heard
all of the delegates.

Each representing one of ten
permanent members of the security council.

Clearly, each of them agrees this world
is in need of one thing above all else,

and that is leadership. You have
also heard them ask you directly

to take this mantle upon
yourself. But before you

make your decision, please,
allow our representative from

the world monetary fund
to make one final appeal.

Sir, as you know, almost every
currency has crashed completely.

There is little doubt
that the entire world

market could be days
from complete collapse.

Unless we can consolidate
at least the major currencies.

But no one is going to allow
one single world currency.

Perhaps no one would have.
But now all of that has changed.

You are the one man that the
entire world will accept to administer.

Mr. Secretary General, what
we are looking for at this time

is a leader who can
unite a shattered world.

Please, I ask you, on behalf of every man
and woman on the planet, to be that leader.

(applause)

I am humbled by your trust. If
there is no other alternative, I accept.

(applause)

Now, with control of all
currency, we are finally

in a position to make
peace our only choice.

Immediately we will call
on every nation to disarm.

To put aside all their
racial, social, political,

and the deadliest of all,
their religious differences.

Today we must accept this
truth. There is no heaven or hell.

There is just us. Here, now.
Let us not look beyond ourselves,

let us look to ourselves. Together
we need not fear temptation or evil,

for ours is the kingdom, the power
and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

(applause & cheering)

Thank you all for coming.

Ray...

Ray...

Ray, people are missing.
Dozens of seats, empty...

Captain Steele, please return
o the flight deck immediately...

Where are my kids?

They were sitting right here.

Please, we are at 37,000 feet.
No one just walked off this airplane.

Captain Steele...

Ray...

Ray...

Ray.

May you walk in
the faith of the Lord.

What are you doing?

What's it look like I'm doing?

You can't take them down,
I live here too, you know.

Are you listening to me?
That's my mother and my brother.

Chloe, if you want them,
then take them to your room.

Fine.

(phone ringing)

Hello?

Hi Bruce.

Good, good. Yeah we'll be there.

Good, Buck.

Hey.

The UN just wrapped up
another press conference.

Nicolae's not wasting any
time. The way they're talking,

he's not just secretary
general of the UN.

It's more like he's
president of the entire planet.

What are we gonna do?

The only thing we can
do. Work together to

share the truth with
anyone who will hear it.

Now that's a pretty tall order.
Everyone in the world thinks Nicolae

is some sort of super hero. To convince
them that he's a bad guy, that's gonna be-

Well how do we stop him?

We can't stop him. We can't
change the events of the bible.

The antichrist will rule. What
we have to do is fight him.

All of us, together. Form our own
tribulation force and spread God's word.

Why do I get the feeling that
Nicolae's not going to like that idea.

Why do I get the feeling that
Nicolae's not going to like that idea.

The bible makes it clear.
The antichrist will hunt down

and k*ll every
Christian he can find.

Admitting you're a Christian
during the tribulation

is just like marking
yourself for death.

You seen those reports
about the two men who

were burned to death
at the Wailing Wall?

Yeah. The UN closed it down.

See these guys?

Who are they?

The witnesses. The bible talks about two
men who will appear during the tribulation.

They will preach God's word,
they will lead thousands to salvation.

It's a crucial end
times prophecy.

A lot of people believe they will do their
work in Jerusalem, at the Wailing Wall.

God gives these men the power to defend
themselves with I'm mifire from heaven.ion.

Wait a minute, you think
the witnesses are here, now?

That's what we need to find out.
Something made the UN close off that area.

You're right. I
gotta get over there.

Are you crazy? You
could get yourself k*lled.

Why can't someone else go?

Because I don't trust anybody
else to stick to our mission.

What can I do?

United States government just gave Nicolae
a brand new airplane. He needs pilots.

And?

And you've flown
dignitaries plenty of times.

You're already ahead of
the security clearances.

No. No way.

Ray-

Bruce, we're talking
about the antichrist here.

He's gonna slaughter
millions of innocent people.

I won't be a part
of that. I'm sorry.

Ray! Hear me out, alright?
These are not ordinary times.

But we can't go back
to the way we were.

You are asking me to drive
Jack the Ripper from door to door

so he can k*ll people.
I'm not gonna do that.

Ray, none of this is
easy. But we have a

calling now and we've
got to stick together.

I am not gonna fly that
airplane Bruce, I'm sorry.

If you don't somebody else will.

Well that's fine, let
them, I don't care.

Who would you
rather in the cockpit?

Someone who thinks Nicolae's a
god or someone who knows the truth?

We need the information
to save souls, Ray.

Bruce, I'm sorry.

I can't believe that
you're gonna do this.

Hey, Chloe. I'm not gonna
let anything happen to me.

I promise. How could I? I'd
never get to see you again.

Will you wait for me?

Everything okay?

Yeah.

What's your plan to get past
Nicolae's men in Jerusalem?

I plan to get access.
My old boss called me.

He told me that Nicolae
wants to meet with me.

Let's not forget who
we're dealing with here.

How could I?

Do you think that Nicolae
suspects that you know the truth?

It's possible. This could be
a trap. Or some kind of test

to see if I know
who he really is.

(g*nsh*t)

Don't worry, this will
be completely painless.

(g*nsh*t)

Have you talked to
anyone who was there?

Yes. And they all swear
it was a m*rder su1c1de.

And if you hadn't accepted
Christ, you would too.

But Bruce, the UN controls the
Wall. Nicolae controls the UN.

If I want a shot at getting
close to these witnesses,

then I need Nicolae on my side. I've
gotta meet with him sooner or later.

If I don't, he'll
get suspicious.

Besides, I'm a journalist. What
journalist in the world would

not give his right arm for a
meeting with Nicolae Carpathia?

(sirens)

We've got a seriously burned
fireman here who needs some

help! The hospitals
are all full, I need a bed!

We got a bed right here.

I'm gonna have to
leave him with you.

Gimme a hand here, will ya?

Get him off. On my
count. On 3-1, 2, 3!

Hey.

Hey, how you doin'?

Good.

Ivy, what are you doing here?

What, did you think
you could get rid of me?

Yeah, no. No, this is great!

Good. I heard they sent you
here and I figured I'd be bored,

so here I am. So, what
are we working on?

Uh, right here. Look
at this. I'm trying to

figure out what's going
on at the Wailing Wall.

Mr. Williams. Who gave you clearance
to waltz in here and take over this space?

Hey Verna, how you
doing? It's been a long time.

Drop the chit chat and
just answer the question.

Verna, I'm trying-

You may address me as Miss Zee.

Look, I don't know what's gotten into you,
but I'm working on a special assignment.

Special? Who assigned
you a special? And you are?

I'm Buck's assistant, but you
could call me Miss Gold if you like.

Gold, huh? Well, I'm in
charge here, so let me lay out

the ground rules. You
will not touch, use, fool with

or otherwise employ this
equipment unless you have

my personal
clearance in advance.

Furthermore, you will not be
involved in the creation, development

or broadcast of any specials while
you're working here, are we crystal?

Listen, let me make
something crystal to you, okay?

Specials are assigned by New
York and as long as I'm here,

Look, it's not important, just
drop it, okay? It tdoesn't matter..

Is that crystal?

We'll see about that.

Look, it doesn't even matter. I
know the truth about what happened.

I know what happened
with the vanishings, alright,

and that UN line about nuclear
radiation's got nothing to do with it.

What we saw was the act
of God. This was bible proph-

Crazy person, okay, you're
temporarily insane and I cannot hear you.

Just be quiet. Look,
we'll work from my place.

The first thing I want
you to do is call the

UN and get me a meeting
with Nicolae Carpathia.

You know what, this is crazy. I
could just go to a hotel or something.

I got a mattress
in that bedroom-

Wow!

I got a couch in the other
one, you can have your pick.

Very nice. Bucky, Bucky,
Bucky. Buck Williams hospitality.

You gotta love that,
huh? Look at this view!

Yeah, and when your fiance
comes, he can stay here too.

Yeah. You're phone is blinking.

Very cool. This is me!

No one has this number.

Hey Buck, it's Steve Plank. Look,
I'm glad you came to your senses.

Nicolae will be in Chicago
in the next day or so,

we're just firming
up his schedule.

We'll get a hold of you when
he's got some time, okay?

Okay. Ciao bud.

Did you give Steve
Plank this number?

No.

I don't know how they found me.

Listen, if I'm not here, don't
let anyone in, okay? No one.

Okay.

Hey Ray, he's starting.

Oh, I know. I'm just waiting for Chris.
There he is. Buddy, how you doing?

I'm okay.

Hey Chris.

Buck, good to see you again.

You too.

Let's go in.

Every person in this
room has lost someone.

A mother, brother, wife, friend.
Ask yourselves this question,

did all of these people
have anything in common?

Yes. Two things. Either they
had decided to follow Christ

or they were too young to have
made that decision in their lives already.

So I've got good
news for you tonight.

We lost our loved ones
because of the rapture.

The bible told us it was
coming, but anyone who believed

in Jesus Christ is in
heaven right now with God.

What's left for us
is a second chance.

I'm not gonna stand
here and tell you that

the road ahead is gonna
be an easy one folks.

How many have
heard of the tribulation?

The bible predicts that
there will be a treaty

between Israel and
the rest of the world.

That treaty will be
brokered by a great leader,

the signing of that
treaty will mark the

beginning of a seven
year period of darkness.

That's what we're talking about
when we refer to the tribulation.

So what's gonna happen?

What's gonna happen? The
world will experience judgments.

Terrible judgments. Devastating
wars, famines, plagues,

and those judgments are
represented in prophecy by these guys.

How many have heard of the
four horsemen of the apocalypse?

And I looked and
behold a white horse.

And he who sat on it had a bow.
And a crown was given to him

and he went out conquering
and to conquer. Revelation 6:2.

Now who is this first horseman?

I believe he represents
the antichrist.

And his purpose is made clear
by the two words, 'to conquer'.

Is he gonna k*ll us all?

No. No. Other passages
make it clear that he will triumph,

not through force, but through
diplomacy. Through peace.

Through a false peace
that promises world unity.

Does that sound
familiar to anyone?

That's what Nicolae
Carpathia's trying to do.

But Nicolae can't be the
devil. All he talks about

is peace and harmony.
Does he strike you as a liar?

How does he strike you?

As a savior!

As a savior? There's only
one person who can save you

from your sins. One
Messiah. That's Jesus Christ.

I'm outta here.

These are dangerous
times, and we're all afraid.

But this book also gives
us a second chance.

Chris! Come on,
man, wait, Chris!

I can't sit there and
listen to that garbage.

What?

Save us from sin, Nicolae's
the antichrist? Come on!

I mean, what is it
with you people?

You think everyone's bad.
Well I have something to tell you.

There are lots of good people
in the world, including me.

According to who's
standards? Your's or God's?

What?

You just said you
were a good person.

I mean, do you think you've
kept the ten commandments?

Yeah, pretty much. I mean, I'm not
perfect but I've never k*lled anybody.

Okay. Well, have you ever lied?

Yeah, well, who hasn't?

So what does that make you?

Human.

Come on Chris, be honest. If
you've m*rder*d somebody,

that makes you a m*rder*r. So if
you've lied, what does that make you?

Okay, a liar.

Have you ever stolen anything?

No.

Even if it's something small?

Well, yeah, once.

So what does that make you?

A thief.

You know, the one
that really got me was,

Jesus said, whoever looks
at a woman to lust after her

has already committed
adultery with her in his heart.

You ever done that?

Yeah. Guilty.

So Chris, by your own admission, you're
a lying thief and an adulterer at heart.

And that's only three of
the ten commandments.

So if God judges you by those
standards, do you honestly think

you're going to be
innocent or guilty?

I guess I'd be guilty.

Chris, that's the point.

So what am I supposed
to do? Get religious?

That's what we're
trying to tell you.

Jesus took your punishment
when he died on the cross.

That's, God did that so you
wouldn't have to go to hell.

That's how much he loves
you. Eternal life is a gift.

You don't have to
do anything religious.

I can't accept that.

Aw, Chris.

We missed the rapture.
We missed the boat.

But that doesn't
mean it's too late.

God calls all men everywhere
to repent. Come up here,

right now, turn from your sins.
Trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Praise God.

(music)

You lost someone too?

Yes, I-

(phone ringing)

Hello?

Yeah, hi Chris. What's-what's
going on? Chris. Chris?

Chris?

What's going on man?

Chris, it's me Ray.

Get out.

Listen, you don't need
that. I know what it's like.

I lost my wife and my son.
Everything. Just like you.

It hurts, man, I know that. It hurts
more than anything I've ever felt.

I miss them terribly. And I can
cry or hide or wreck everything

in my house, but it is not
gonna change anything.

They are not coming back.
I keep going because I know

that they are in heaven, that
there is a heaven, that it's real.

Real? This room
is real. This is real.

Chris, why don't
you give me that g*n.

Don't. Not unless
you wanna die too.

I don't wanna die
Chris. I thought I did.

I thought I deserved to. But
that's not what God wants.

God? God is dead.
You heard Nicolae.

There's no heaven,
no hell, there's only us.

He wants you to think
that there is no reason

to go on and he wants
you to k*ll yourself.

He wants you to think
that there iRight here,

right now. nd he
wanThat's what he wants.lf.

Why?

Because you have a purpose.
Because God created you and me.

Everybody. I mean look around you.
Do you think that this was an accident?

That the oceans, the sunset, do you
think this just happened by chance?

What are you saying?

I'm saying that there
is a God. There has

to be. It's the only
thing that makes sense.

So if there's a God and there's a heaven,
why are we here? Why aren't we in heaven?

Because we weren't
right with God.

No.

Chris. Chris you can pull
that trigger, I can't stop you.

But if you do you are never
gonna see your wife again.

Is that what you want? She's in
heaven with my wife and my son.

She committed to God and
she is in heaven and if she's not,

if they're not, then where are
they? You tell me, where are they?!

You can guarantee me
that there's not a heaven?

I mean, can you guarantee
that 100%? What if you're wrong?

You want to be with them,
don't you? I know you do.

And they want
you to be with them.

Now you have got to make a decision.
It's the biggest decision of your life.

Trust me. Trust your wife, Chris.
You need to trade that g*n for God.

You need to put your
faith and your trust in God,

and you need to do it right
now. Now what do you say?

Are you ready to
make that trade?

I just confirmed there
were two men preaching

when those people
got burned at the Wall.

Bruce, I think this is real and I
think it's happening right now.

By turning it into a
GNN report. I can tie it

to all the talk about
that one world religion.

I get in there with a
camera, I up link to a satellite-

Live TV. The world sees
the truth on live TV. I love it.

Alright guys, but what about UN
security though? The Wall's closed.

I've got a meeting with Nicolae.

Chris just got saved. It
was amazing. Amazing.

Praise God.

I finally got it. I know what
God's purpose is for me.

I'm going after that
pilot job for Nicolae.

Ray, last time we talked
you told me flat out, no.

There's no halfway with the
antichrist. Right, you're either in 100%-

Bruce, when Nicolae
signs that treaty with Israel,

the tribulation begins.
We don't have much time.

You two are both crazy. You
want to work for the antichrist

and you want to have
lunch with him? What

makes you think you're
even gonna get the job?

I've got a connection.

Whatever.

Hey.

Hey.

Watcha doing?

Nothing.

Is that your family?

What are these?

It means they were
church members.

Listen, I know that you're
concerned about your dad.

I do not want to
talk about my family.

Okay.

Chloe, I feel like there's
something you're not telling me.

I think you're a wonderful
guy but I'm having a really hard

time with this whole hanging
out with the devil thing.

I don't even know if you're
gonna be alive tomorrow.

Hattie.

Ray.

It's great to see you.

What is it Ray?

Well, I just wanted
to say that I'm sorry.

For what? Leading
me on? I'm over it.

I'm on a tight schedule,
what can I do for you?

I need something.
I wanna talk to you.

Funny how things change
in the blink of an eye.

Hattie, I wanna fly this plane.

You and every other pilot. A few
days ago you were warning me

about taking this job. Waving your bible
around like you'd gone off the deep end.

Everything had just happened. I
mean, my world was upside down.

I lost my family. I didn't
know where to turn.

But not to me. Besides
Ray, I've heard the little lies.

All the rumors. What is
it? Oh yes, the antichrist.

Isn't that what the bible
thumpers are saying?

So how can you waltz in
here and ask me for this job?

Come on Hattie. I'm
a pilot, I deal in facts.

We've worked together
a long time, right?

In all that time, did you ever know of me
spreading rumors and lies about people?

I've been doing a lot of thinking,
I mean, I lost almost everything.

But I can still fly. I am a
good pilot and you know it.

I wanna give something, and I believe the
best way to do it is if I work for Nicolae.

I believe you mean that.

I do mean it. I do.

You'll have to see him. Once
you know him, it's amazing.

He's always talking about the
greater good and world peace.

You know actually, I
think he's a Christian.

Hey Chloe, come on in.

Everything okay?

I have to ask you something.

Yeah, sure. Come
on in, sit down.

What do you think about
relationships at a time like this?

Relationships? What do you mean?

Well, romantic ones.
Between a man and a woman.

You sure you don't
want to sit down?

I think I know this man.

Someone who's leaving very soon.

I think the stakes are high
everywhere, including in relationships.

Maybe God wants you
to make a sacrifice Chloe.

Maybe God wants
you to let Buck go.

Even if he never comes back?

I think you gotta talk to him.

You're right. Thanks.

You're right. Thanks.

(knocking)

We don't want anything. Go awa.

I'm looking for Buck Williams.

What! What! What?

Does Buck Williams live here?

Um, no. No he doesn't.

Look, what do you want? You
want an autograph or something?

Is that what you want? Listen chicky,
let me give you some advice, okay?

You're not the first
one to follow him home,

so why don't you just skedaddle and go
play with some college boys, okay? Bye!

(phone ringing)

Gonna get that?

It's him.

Him who?

Buck.

Buck? What is going on?

Nothing?

That nothing has a lot of
something behind it, Chloe.

He's engaged. I bet
you didn't know that, Dad.

He's living with someone.

Come on. Buck is not engaged.

Yes he is.

I don't know where
you get your information,

but if Buck were
engaged, he woulda told us.

(phone ringing)

Hello?

Hey, Ray.

Hey Buck, how you doing?

A little frustrated. Is
Chloe there? I think

we've had some kind
of misunderstanding.

I'd say that's true.

Why? Is she
standing right there?

Absolutely.

Do you have any idea
what the problem is?

No, not really.

Well, I'd like to get to the bottom
of it. I'd like to come over tonight.

I think that'd be a good idea.

Great. You mind if I
come over right now?

That's a great idea.

I'm already on my way.

Okay Buck, I'll talk
to you tomorrow.

Now, I'm going to go take a
shower and go to bed. Goodnight.

Come with us Mr. Williams.

Ah, Mr. Williams.
Sorry to meet like this,

but I knew you would
appreciate the view. Come.

Good to see you again. Last
time we were together it was under

rather unfortunate
circumstances.

Yes. Yes, that was a
terrible thing that happened.

Since that day it feels, perhaps,
like you've been avoiding me.

No, why would I do
that? It's just things have

been very crazy. I
mean everything-

Yes, yes, of course.

There's a whole world out
there looking for answers, Buck.

And I'm sure you'll agree
that the most important thing

right now is seeing they get
the right ones. That's why the UN

has decided to assume control
of the world's major media.

What?

Sounds like you don't approve.

Well, a free press is the
cornerstone of a free world. I-

Leadership without accountability
does not sound very compelling.

I want only the best for this world.
You've heard enough to know that by now.

I have traveled from country
to country in the last week,

and I can tell you firsthand, I have
seen nothing but pain and suffering.

It seems that people just
weren't built to deal with

this kind of overwhelming
stress. People have only one

natural reaction to something
like this. Find someone to blame.

It's up to us Buck. If people can't
find the answers they are looking for,

they only have to make them
up. Think of it. A world looking for

someone to hate. Turning
for answers to a media who

makes it's living on feeding
rumor and promoting conflict.

We may hold the secret to world
peace and unity in our hands.

Why me?

Because people trust you.
You're exactly what they need

in a time like this. A voice
of reason in a world of fear

and suspicion. A
voice like yours is the

most powerful w*apon
in the fight for peace.

And If I refuse?

I don't think you can.
This is too important.

If I do this, I need complete
freedom to cover any story I want.

Of course.

And I want total UN
Security clearance.

If I'm going to report the
truth, I need access to it.

Buck Williams, I
welcome the accountability.

Do we have a deal?

Good choice, Buck.

Hey Buck. Congratulations. I hear
we're gonna be working together.

Hey, why didn't you tell
me Nicolae controls GNN?

Not relevant. Listen, I'm gonna
be your man on the ground

Nin Israel, anything you need,
a be yoyou come to me. round

You know, it's gonna be
a lot better for guys like us.

Journalistic integrity,
freedom of the press.

Nicolae, he's the boss
you always wanted to have.

Sure. Yeah listen, I'm going
to cover the peace treaty.

No no. No, no, no. The Ben-Judah
announcement. That's the event,

alright, believe me. It'll be
the biggest story of your career.

Why is this speech so important?

Come on, buddy. You're
the reporter. You figure it out.

See you later.

(knocking)

What are you doing here?

Chloe, I need to talk with you.

No. Go away.

Chloe, hey. I'm not leaving
until you talk with me.

Fine.

Daddy!

Yeah?

Buck's here and he won't leave.

What do you want me to do? I'm
taking a shower. I got soap in my eyes.

Get rid of him.

He's not here to see me.

Great.

You have 9 minutes.

Could we go inside?

No.

Okay. We'll just stand
out here and freeze.

Well, obviously Chloe, there's
some kind of misunderstanding.

Pretty smart, huh?
Chloe, I don't understand.

I thought that we sort of hit
it off. I mean, I really like you.

Me and who else?

What?

Nothing. You have 8
minutes. Keep talking.

What do you mean,
me and who else?

Chloe, I honestly have no
idea what you're talking about.

You know what, forget it.
Why don't you go back to

your fiancee before
she gets worried.

Wh-My what?

I met her today
at your apartment.

Who?

Brunette. Bath towel.
Big shiny diamond.

Ring a bell?

Ivy?

Mrs. Ivy Williams. Cute.

I am not engaged to
Ivy. Or anybody else.

She's just crashing at my
place. She's my assistant.

End of story.

So she's not-

I feel like such an idiot.

Hey don't. You know
what, it's my fault. I mean,

I really should have told
you, but I just didn't think that-

I'm sorry.

Hey, how are my 8 minutes doing?

You can have all
the time you want.

Everything okay?

Shower, huh? You
knew he was coming.

Thanks, Daddy.

Goodnight, sweetheart.

And I know they're going to have a
platoon straight up to Golden Gate.

Don't worry, I talked to Nicolae.
He's given me full UN clearance.

There's a twist. The
antichrist approves a

story that could reveal
what he is to the world.

Unless he finds out that you
plan to put the witnesses on GNN.

Well, I'm going to
convince him that everything

I'm doing is for the
sake of world unity.

I'll pray for you, Buck.

And I'll be on the ground with you.
You need anything at all, I'll be there.

Thanks.

There's still a
lot of what if's.

Bruce, I've been praying and
I know this is the way to go.

Guys, the antichrist has
power we may not even be able

to comprehend. We
walk by faith, not by sight.

I am troubled by the
developments with the

Wailing Wall. Divided
religions mean a divided world.

These men, these self proclaimed
preachers are dangerous.

Why don't you just arrest them?

I don't want to put them in
jail. This is not a dictatorship.

I simply do not want to
see anyone else get hurt.

Increase the guards at the Wall.

Are you waiting for something?

The Wailing Wall's an important symbol.
Thousands of people have flocked to it.

Exactly. The world is in shock
Mr. Plank. Millions vanished.

No rational explanation.
People are grasping at straws.

It's our duty to
give them faith.

How, Nicolae?

By creating spiritual unity, of
course. A one world religion.

Tolerance, harmony and peace.

How does this create harmony?

Yes, Mr. President?

Block channel 10. Then give
me the Buck Williams Report.

Right away, sir.

I believe people are
finally ready to accept it.

A united global society. The
world will follow us to peace.

And this man will
show them the way.

Okay, alright, one more.

Ugh!

How 'bout a silly one.

I think there's another one.

Okay.

(laughing)

You feel like a cookie?

Why, do I look like one?

That was so lame.

I know. Here we go, here we go.

Let me see.

(laughing)

I like that one.
Look at your face.

Yeah, I think I'll
keep all of them.

Hey!

Just kidding.

There you go.

Thanks. Aww.

Well, this is where
I say good bye.

Hey, you know I have no choice.

I know.

Listen, we'll still have
our pictures, right?

Yeah.

I'll be thinking of you.

That's fine, sir. Thank you.

He'll be okay.

Watch out for him.

You know I will.

Be careful, Dad. I'm
really proud of you.

I love you.

I love you too, angel.

Are you okay?

I think I might get a coffee.

Sure.

Alright, here we are.

Ray. It's me.

What are you doing?

Trying to see what I can find.

Be careful.

Excellent.

Good work on the speech.
Ben-Judah loves the changes.

Well, I'm glad to hear that.

Come on...

Captain Steele. Is there
something I can help you with?

I was looking for Hattie. I
wanted to give her our ETA.

Miss Durham speaks very highly of you.
She tells me you once worked together.

Yes, sir. That's correct.

That past relationship, did it
extend beyond the workplace?

Excuse me?

There are hundreds of
qualified pilots all over the world.

I'd like to think she hired
you for the right reasons.

No. In reference to your
question about our past

relationship. No, it didn't
extend beyond the workplace.

Good. I like to know
where everyone stands.

Yes, sir.

Captain, why don't
you give me that.

Sorry?

Our ETA. I'm about to
go see Hattie right now.

Of course. Forgive me. I forgot.

Captain Steele? Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Good. This plane, it
meets your expectations?

Yes, sir. It's amazing.

Thank you Captain.

And Captain-

Glad to have you with us.

Thank you sir. Good to be here.

(knocking)

Hey. Come on in.

How'd it go? Find anything?

Yeah. I think so.

The attachment is
Ben-Judah's speech.

Okay, okay, here we go.

The Messiah will be pierced
without breaking a bone.

Medical records show that
when Nicolae was 6 years of age,

he was pierced through
the chest by a farm machine

without breaking a single bone.

The Messiah will travel
to Egypt as a young child.

This is what Ben-Judah's
big announcement is all about.

He's gonna announce
that Nicolae is the Messiah.

That's why Nicolae wants me here.
He's using me to promote this speech.

No, we're missing something
here. If this is Ben-Judah's speech,

then why did I hear Nicolae
thank Steve Plank for writing it?

Or re-writing it.

Come on, Ray, Ray look,
the Messiah will be pierced

without breaking a bone. We
all know that was Jesus Christ.

He was stabbed when he
was hanging on the cross.

Ben-Judah was going
to announce that Jesus

Christ is the Messiah
they changed the speech.

How are they gonna
get Ben-Judah to read it?

Nicolae's got a lot of people under his
power. We've gotta get to Ben-Judah.

And then what? I mean if
he has all these people under

his power or spell or
whatever you want to call it,

it's supernatural.
What can you do?

I can't do anything, but
God can. The only thing that's

gonna break it is
the power of God.

But how?

We get Ben-Judah face to
face with the word of God.

Buck-

We take him to the witnesses.

Buck, good to see you.

Steve. Listen, I need a favor. I
need to get to the Wailing Wall.

Why?

The two men at the Wall.
Listen, I know they're a problem

for Nicolae. I think I can discredit
them. I think I can make them go away.

Well, I like it. I like it
a lot, but I, I can't do it.

Not even for
you. It's off limits.

Steve, come on.

No, no. Look, Buck, Nicolae
has everyone's best interests

at heart. He wants to
unify the world, not divide it.

The more attention you give those
guys, the worse you're gonna make it.

This, this right here, Buck,
this is where the world

is going. One
faith for everyone.

Oh, Buck. Don't
even think about it.

Can I read to you?

Let not your heart be troubled-

Ye who believe in
God, believe also in me.

In my father's house are
many mansions if it were not so,

I would have told you. I will
go and prepare a place for you.

And if I go to prepare a place
for you, I will come again...

(something falls)

Sorry.

I'll be right back.

Look, Buck told me where I
could find you, but it kinda looks like

you have your hands full, so I'll
make it short. I owe you an apology.

I guess we both jumped
to the wrong conclusions.

I'm Ch-

Excuse me. Sorry.

I'm Chloe.

I'm Ivy.

So anyway, I'm sorry, I-

No problem. You're
quite the fierce protectress.

I guess we all have our talents.
So anyway, you believe in this stuff?

Yeah. Yeah I do.

Magic formula.

It's not magic, it's faith.

And you get that
from reading the bible?

It's not just reading,
it's believing. I guess it's

like my mom said, faith
is a choice and it comes

from the heart so you either
want to believe it or you don't.

Yeah, it's never been a strong
point for me. But hey, good luck.

Thanks.

Hey, sorry about that.

And if I go and prepare a
place for you, I will come again,

and receive you unto myself, that
where I am, there you may also be.

Excuse me. Rabbi Ben-Judah?

Yes.

Hi. My name is-

Buck Williams. I think the
whole world knows who you are.

I was wondering
if we could talk.

What can I do for you?

Well, it's about the
two men at the Wall.

They are dangerous men.

Why?

They wish to divide the
world through religion. This is

not right. There is no heaven,
no hell, there is only us.

We must not allow closed minded religious
fanaticism to divide the world any further.

But there are many people
who believe that these men

have something very important to say,
and that Nicolae must be hiding something.

That's ridiculous. Why
would Nicolae do such a thing?

But Rabbi, in this world, a tiny
rumour like that could spread

like wildfire, and there's no
telling how many people might

believe it. That's why I want
you to come to the Wall to

speak to them. You are the
world's most knowledgable

and respected religious
scholar. If anyone can discredit

these men, it's you. You
can question them, and if they

stumble for answers, if
they contradict themselves,

I'll have the whole thing
on tape, for the worldwide

GNN audience to see.

Rabbi, think of it
as a gift to Nicolae.

He has much more
important things to worry about

right now than a
couple of radicals.

Let's expose these men
for who they really are.

Before they become
martyrs for their cause.

Nicolae is lucky to
have a friend like you.

I know this guy. He never
quits. I mean, this is the guy who

broadcasted from Israel with
planes crashing all around him.

Exactly why he's with
us. People love him.

His coverage will help them
understand and accept the peace process.

He came to me today. He
wants access to the Wailing Wall.

He wants to discredit
the witnesses.

If I thought he could. I
want 24 hour monitors on all

GNN broadcasts. Immediate
notification on any footage from

the Wailing Wall. Go.
An official press release.

Do to extremist threats
against the Wailing Wall,

any and all trespassers
will be shot on site.

Alright, well, that should
keep even Buck Williams away.

Hey. How's it going?

Hey, it's going great.

Good. You ready?

Yeah, the equipment's ready,
the GNN uplink is good to go,

but I still don't know how we're
gonna get to the Wailing Wall.

Well, God got us this far,
He'll take us the rest of the way.

You just get Ben-Judah there,
let me take care of the rest.

Besides, I told Chloe
that I'd look out for you.

Really? I told her
that I'd look out for you.

Really?

Hey listen, Ray, you know, I
really have no idea what you

must be feeling, having
lost your wife, your son,

but I know that Chloe is
really worried about you.

It's just, well, it's just hard to let
go, you know. I'm gonna be alright.

Let's pray.

God, some things are
just so hard to understand

and to accept. Please
help us to accept your will.

And give us the faith and the
strength that we need to do what

you want us to do. And we
thank you that you're in control.

We pray in your
son's name, amen.

Amen.

(phone ringing)

Hello?

Hey, hey it's me.

Hey, hey it's me.

Hi Buck. It's so good to hear
your voice. Are you guys okay?

Yeah, yeah. We're fine.
Look, it's just starting to get dark

over here and I just wanted
to say that I miss you.

Are you there?

Yeah, yeah, I'm still here.

Good. I'm still going
to the Wailing Wall.

Buck, you can't. The UN
just announced that tries to

approach is gonna
be shot on site.

Chloe don't worry. God
will protect me. Just pray.

I did. I asked Him to bring
you home. I really miss you.

Me too. Take care.

Glad you could make it.

The sooner we go, the sooner
we put an end to their lies.

Let's go.

Just wait here.

Stop. Show me your ID.

I'm with GNN. I work
for Nicolae Carpathia.

No.

We have strict
orders. No one passes.

Give me strength, God.

May you walk in
the faith of the Lord.

(Hebrew)

Take heed now for the
Lord has chosen thee to...

(Hebrew)

He said: Take heed
now for the Lord-

I know, I know. He's
speaking in English.

You are false prophets, claiming to
know the secret to God's kingdom.

God will bring every deed
into judgment, Ben-Judah,

including every hidden
thing, whether it is good or evil.

I the Lord search the
heart, I test the mind,

and will give every man
according to his ways

and according to the
things he has done.

I have kept the
commandments since my youth.

By the deeds of the law,
no flesh shall be justified

in his sight, but by grace
you are saved, through faith,

and this is not for
yourselves. It is the gift of God,

not by works, so
that no one can boast.

Cut it.

I don't understand.

We are ambassadors, as though
God were making his appeal through us.

This is GNN. We are experiencig
technical difficulties. Please stand by.

Be reconciled to God. God
made Him who had no sin to be

sin for us, so that in Him, we might
become the righteousness of God.

For God so loved the world that
He gave his one and only son,

that whoever believes
in Him will not perish,

but have everlasting life. For
God did not send His son into

the world to condemn the
world, but to save the world

through him. He who believes
in the son is not condemned,

but He who does not believe is
condemned already because He

has not believed in the name
of the only begotten son of God.

And the name of the son of God?

He is the Christ, Jesus.

(g*nshots)

Buck, how'd it go?

It was insane. But if I get the
witnesses on TV it's the only thing-

What?

I spoke to Chloe. The
broadcast got cut. Nobody saw it.

What do you mean?

But at least Ben-Judah
heard the truth, right?

I don't know, he
was gone before-

What do you mean,
you don't know?

He was gone before
I could talk to him.

It's in God's hands now.

Hey. It's good to see you back.

Thought you could use some food.

Thanks.

I'm ready.

I'm ready. For God.

Then tell him.

Dear God, I'm so sorry I've sinned
against you. Please forgive me.

I want to do the right thing.

Jesus, thank you. Thank
you for dying for me.

I put my life in your hands.

I put my life in your hands.

(crying)

Shh...

You were so great.

You did good. Did
you see his eyes?

He had so much
peace in his eyes.

He found God.

Yeah. He did.

I regret that I could not be present
for this long awaited announcement.

Rabbi Ben-Judah, whom
I have just recently met,

is recognized as the
world's leading authority on

rabbinical teachings
and ancient scriptures.

He is known as an
honest man. A careful man.

A man who supports
every conclusion with

well researched data. He will
be joining you in approximately

1 hour. Unfortunately, pressing
UN business calls me back

to New York, so I will leave
you now. I wish you peace.

(cheering)

(phone rings)

Hello?

Buck.

Ray. Ray, where are you?

I'm on the plane.
Nicolae's leaving.

Yeah, I know, I just heard.

Listen, I'm gonna do all I can from
this end, you take care of yourself.

Thanks. God bless.

I appreciate what you tried to
do for me at the Wailing Wall.

Don't you worry. This is the
real reason why you're here.

I'm sure you'll find this
announcement fascinating.

Be back in a bit. You good?

Yeah. Sure.

Ready for the broadcast?

Please.

Here we go.

And, after years of study,
my team has concluded,

beyond the shadow of a doubt,
the identity of the Messiah.

The bible has given clear
prophecies that could be

fulfilled by only one person
in the entire human race.

Based on 456 messianic passages
and 558 references from the most

ancient rabbinical writings,
there are 109 distinct

prophecies that the
Messiah must fulfill.

Perhaps you will be relieved
to know that I will not detail

all 109 this evening. The
possibility that even 20

of these 109 prophecies
be fulfilled in one man

is well over one in
a hundred million.

Now, in light of recent
world events, there has been

much speculation that
the Messiah does indeed

walk among us today. So
let us look at the prophecies.

Some of them could apply
to any of us. For example,

the Messiah will be
preceded by a forerunner.

He, and the prophecies do
refer to a man, will be pierced

without breaking a bone.
Then it starts to narrow.

The Messiah must be born
of an extremely rare bloodline.

He will travel to
Egypt as a young child.

He will be rejected
by his own people.

The Messiah must
be born in Bethlehem.

The Messiah will be betrayed
by a friend for 30 pieces

of silver. And perhaps
most amazingly, the Messiah-

We don't have a connection.

To be buried with the rich-

Get me a cell phone.

NOW!

-and of all things, to
be resurrected again.

There is only one person
in history who fulfills all

of these prophecies. And
his name is Jesus Christ.

Of these prophecies. And
his name is Jesus Christ.

Praise God!

-to take them to heaven...

Thank you, Buck.

I did not believe, but I
have seen God's witnesses,

and I have heard the truth.
Let me beg you, each of you,

to open your eyes, to see
the truth and turn to God's faith.

Please forgive me.

He has sent us a savior-

I need you.

Jesus Christ.

Please forgive me for doubting.

Cut it. Cut it now!

This is GNN. We are experiencig
technical difficulties. Please stand by.

Pray with me.

I accept you,
Jesus, into my life...

I accept you, Jesus...

Into my life-

into my life...

And my heart.

And my heart.

And I ask you to
stay with me forever.

And I ask you to
stay with me forever...

Amen.

(shouting)

I don't know if you're
gonna be safe here.

I will be fine. Thanks, Buck. Thanks
to you, millions have heard the truth.

I will be fine. Thanks, Buck. Thanks
to you, millions have heard the truth.

Thanks to God.

Feel like taking a break?

Yeah.

Thank you, God. Thank you.

Nicolae, can I get you anything?

Leave.

Nicolae-

LEAVE!

Leave me alone.

This is not the end! This is my
time. MY will be done! I will rule.
