Starck Black Hole - the most destructive force in the universe - and you have created one?
Weir Absolutely, yes! Because we can use that immense power to bend space-time—look, it would take the Lewis and Clark a thousand years to reach the nearest star. The Event Horizon could be there in a day!
Starck If it worked ...
Weir [Descending to the black hole generator]
You can come down, it is perfectly safe!
Weir No, we can't leave. Our orders are specific.
Rescue the crew, salvage what's left of the ship. The crew is dead, doctor. Your ship killed them.
Weir We came here to do a job—
We're aborting, Doctor! Starck, download the files from the Event Horizon computers. DJ, I want you to get Justin prepped and move him back to the Clark.
DJ
There's stuff I want to get from Medical. I've got to move him into a tank.
Not a problem. Do it. Peters, I want you to get the CO2 scrubbers back into the Clark. Take Smitty with you.
Weir Captain... don't do this.
It's done.
Weir What about my ship? You can't just leave her!
I have no intention of leaving her, Doctor. I will take the Lewis and Clark to a safe distance and then I'll launch TAC missiles at the Event Horizon until I'm satisfied she's vaporized. **** this ship!
Starck [Weir tries to grab Miller, who shoves him back; the lights shut off] [over intercom]
Captain Miller, the bio-scan just went off the scale. It looks like the core is draining power from the rest of the ship.
Weir You can't leave. She won't let you.
You just get your gear and get back on the Lewis and Clark, Doctor, or you'll find yourself walking home.
Weir I am home.
Weir The ship brought me back. I told you she won't let me leave. She won't let anyone leave. Did you really think you could destroy this ship? She's defied space and time. She's been to a place you couldn't possibly imagine. And now, it is time to go back.
I know. To Hell.
Weir You know nothing. Hell is only a word. The reality is much, much worse.
Weir [Weir disarms and viciously beats Miller]
They're not your crew anymore. They belong to the ship.
Ship voice
Gateway opening.
Take me. You take me, you leave them alone!
Weir No. There is no escape. The gateway is open, and you are all coming with me! Do you see? Do you see?! DO YOU SEE?!
Weir [screaming in terror, denied the other surviving crewmembers]
NOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Weir I created the Event Horizon to reach the stars, but she's gone much, much farther than that. She tore a hole in our universe, a gateway to another dimension. A dimension of pure chaos. Pure... evil. When she crossed over, she was just a ship. But when she came back... she was alive! Look at her, Miller. Isn't she beautiful?
Your "beautiful" ship killed its crew, Doctor.
Weir Well... now she has another crew. Now she has us.
