Windows!
Put that down.
- No.
- I'll put this right through your head.
You guys gonna listen to Garry,
let him give the orders?
He could be
one of those things!
Windows, wait a minute.
Just take it easy.
Put the gun down.
Put it down.
- Garry, you don't want to hurt anybody.
- Get back.
On the floor.
It's on the floor.
I don't know about Copper,
but I give you my word,
I did not go near that blood.
But I guess you'll all
feel a little easier...
if somebody else
was in charge.
Norris, I can't see
anybody objecting to you.
I'm sorry, fellas,
but I-I-I'm not up to it.
- I'll take it.
- Like hell you will.
It should be somebody a little
more even-tempered, Childs.
All right.
I know I'm human.
And if you were all these things,
then you'd just attack me right now.
So some of you
are still human.
This thing doesn't want
to show itself.
It wants to hide
inside an imitation.
It'll fight if it has to,
but it's vulnerable out in the open.
If it takes us over,
then it has no more enemies,
nobody left to kill it.
And then it's won.
There's a storm
hitting us in six hours.
We're gonna find out
who's who.
All right, Doc, Garry and Clark move
over there away from the others.
Norris, you and Childs shoot 'em up with
morphine. Tie 'em down and watch 'em.
- Fuchs, you start workin' on a new test.
- I need Doc's help.
Yeah, you don't want
to drug me.
Mac, I'm not a prisoner!
Here, let me do it. You're gonna
break the needle in my arm.
No, Doc. He's doin' a real fine job.
I'm gonna hide this tape
when I'm finished.
If none of us make it, at least
there'll be some kind of record.
Storm's been hitting us
hard now for 48 hours.
We still have
nothing to go on.
One other thing.
I think it rips through your clothes
when it takes you over.
Windows found some shredded long johns,
but the name tag was missing.
They could be anybody's.
Nobody...
Nobody trusts anybody now.
And we're all very tired.
Nobody trusts anybody now.
There's nothing else I can do.
Just wait.
R.J. MacReady, helicopter pilot,
U.S. Outpost Number 31.
You come up
with anything yet?
One or two ideas.
But, MacReady,
I've been thinking.
If a small particle of this thing is
enough to take over an entire organism,
then everyone should
prepare their own meals.
I suggest we only
eat out of cans.
All right.
Who's that?
Anybody see Fuchs?
Somebody blew out
a fuse in the lab.
Lights were out for an hour.
Any one of us could have gotten to him.
All right,
we gotta find him.
Nauls, why don't you
come with me and we'll look outside.
Palmer, you and Windows
check the inside.
I ain't goin' with Windows.
I ain't goin' with him.
I'll go with Childs.
- Hey, fuck you, Palmer!
- I ain't goin' with you!
- Who says I want you goin' with me?
- All right, cut the bullshit!
Windows, you come with us.
Norris, you stay here.
Any of them move, you fry 'em.
You hear anything at all,
you cut loose on the sirens.
We all meet back here
in 20 minutes, regardless!
And everybody watch
whoever you're with,
real close.
Hey, Blair!
Blair, have you seen Fuchs?
I don't want to stay out here anymore.
I want to come back inside.
Funny things.
I hear funny things out here.
- Have you come across Fuchs?
- It ain't Fuchs.
It ain't Fuchs.
I'm not gonna harm anybody,
and there's nothing wrong with me.
And if there was,
I'm all better now.
I'd like to come back inside.
You got my promise.
We'll see.
Hey, wait a minute.
Wait a minute, man.
I want to come back inside.
Don't you understand?
I'm all right. I'm much better.
I won't harm anybody.
You gotta let me
come back inside.
Hold it!
Is it Fuchs?
Yeah.
Why would it burn him?
Flare. Maybe he tried
to burn it.
Maybe he burned himself...
before it could get to him.
Great! Now what are we
gonna do?
You go inside.
Tell the others we found Fuchs.
We'll be in
as soon as we can.
- Where are we goin'?
- Up to my shack.
- What the hell
