This is a satellite picture of lowa
when the UFO was sighted.

1:08:04
Here. Day 1. Now watch.
1:08:07
The orange shape represents the
spread of the colony over five days.

1:08:15
Now, what you'd expect,
1:08:18
if it's necessary to stay close to
the hive, with lowa's topography,

1:08:22
is that the shape would be
roughly circular.

1:08:25
So we rationalised it
into three overlapping circles.

1:08:28
Could you do that, please?
1:08:33
If we shrink these circles back,
1:08:37
we find the location of the hive
at different times.

1:08:39
Each time the hive is on the river.
1:08:42
That could be how they moved it.
1:08:45
All right. This is where
it all started.

1:08:47
This is where the hive is now.
1:08:51
Des Moines.
1:08:52
Makes sense. High population density.
1:08:56
And it'd be easier to defend.
1:09:03
We've narrowed its location to a
ten-block radius in the city centre.

1:09:07
That's where Mary is. I know it.
1:09:10
Show me the projected size of
the colony in the next 24 hours.

1:09:28
We'll parachute in tonight.
1:09:36
- We have six hours.
- We'll need eight.

1:09:40
You've got eight hours.
1:09:57
You've got a very tight eight-hour
window to pull this off.
