Part 6/7:
In a shocking twist, Ethan's ship is disintegrated by the alien crafts. Meanwhile, on Earth, Abby and Jack endure escalating fear as a day passes with no contact from Ethan. Just as hope dwindles, NASA detects a large wormhole opening, through which the two alien shuttles emerge, returning Ethan to his family's side in a miraculous re-integration process.
Overwhelmed by relief and joy, Ethan conveys the chilling message delivered by the aliens: humanity must halt its expansion beyond their galaxy—failure to comply would result in the total destruction of civilization. The aliens, having silently surveilled humanity, deemed it necessary to reveal their presence now that humans have reached a threshold that could threaten not only themselves but other civilizations.
