Part 4/11:
Amidst this catastrophe, a tale of human conflict unfolds. A Greenpeace ship protests against offshore oil drilling while the boisterous owner, Harry, finds himself embroiled in both familial and workplace tensions when he discovers his daughter Grace with AJ, an employee. Contrived circumstances arise when an army unit arrives to recruit Harry for an impending mission, acknowledging his unparalleled drilling skills—the only hope to avert disaster.
At NASA, scientists convene with military personnel, and after much deliberation, formulate a daring plan. Rather than attacking the asteroid directly, it is proposed that they drill into it and insert a nuclear warhead to detonate and neutralize the threat. For this audacious endeavor, they require the best drillers on Earth.
