| Operation: Anchorage | Morrill McGraw |
“This is a high priority message! Backup is needed at our location! Any personnel listening on this frequency, please report at once! I'll keep it simple: there's some high value tech in this base, but we can't get to it. We're pretty sure anyone who completes the facility's VR simulation program will gain access. I won't lie to you; we're talkin' front line heavy combat, safety protocols disengaged: sim death, real death.”

| Mothership Zeta | Alien captive | “This is my final message. Whoever finds this tape, you've got to send help up here. They've been keeping us in cells, but I've managed to escape. I think I know what they want with our world and they won't stop until they've taken hundreds, or thousands, of us! I've got to keep moving! Good luck to all of us... and Godspeed.”
