[Woman speaks in Spanish]
:02:05
Sí, mi amiga.
We are completamente seguros here...
:02:09
...because l've selected
my position carefully.
:02:13
First rule of engagement:
Know your enemy.
:02:16
Second rule: Know where to engage him.
:02:18
You've kept your engines running.
I want maximum heat emissions...
:02:22
...from these coordinates.
Mucho caliente. Comprende?
:02:26
The time, 5:00.
:02:29
The place, seven klicks south of El Chaco.
:02:33
The situation:
:02:34
A single graboid reported
in the area two weeks ago.
:02:38
The third appearance of these underground
carnivores in the last 1 1 years.
:02:41
Unfortunately, lack of action
on the part of local authorities...
:02:45
...has allowed the creature
to metamorphose...
:02:47
...into the second stage of its life cycle,
producing six shriekers...
:02:52
...a voracious, hermaphroditic life-form...
:02:54
...which can double in number every
few minutes by eating sufficient food.
:02:58
In this case, chickens.

...moving across the pampas toward us...
:03:15
...closing at less than 300 meters.
:03:17
290. 280.
:03:21
l've managed to lead the shrieker herd
away from civilian population.
:03:24
My tactical approach is
utilize various maneuvers...
:03:27
...demonstrated
by Sitting Bull at Little Bighorn...
:03:29
...and Field Marshal Rommel during
the North Africa campaign.
:03:33
The idea being to set up a proper kill zone.
:03:38
[Distant explosion]
:03:41
BURT: l should take this opportunity
to point out their zero tactical skills.
:03:45
[Screeching approaches]
:03:48
BURT: Lacking eyes or ears,
they can sense only heat and....
:03:51
[Man tries to interrupt]
:03:52
Patience, mi amigo.
