Greenland Plot

Greenland  John Garrity is a structural engineer living in Atlanta, Georgia, with his estranged wife, Allison, and their diabetic son, Nathan. He returns home to watch the near-earth passing of a recently-discovered interstellar comet named Clarke, with his family and neighbors, learning from the news that Clarke is not a singular object, but made up of hundreds of fragments of rock and ice.

While in a store, John receives a strange automated message from DHS informing him that he and his family have been selected for emergency sheltering. Confused and concerned, he returns home just as a comet fragment enters the atmosphere on live television. Previously expected to land near Bermuda, the fragment instead strikes Tampa, Florida, vaporizing the city and most of the state. John once again receives a call with instructions to head to Robins Air Force Base for an evacuation flight. The Garritys then learn from their neighbor Ed that Clarke is on a direct collision course with Earth, and the entire planet will be bombarded with hundreds of fragments within the next two days in a cataclysmic event, with the largest fragment expected to cause an extinction level event. The family packs up and flees, refusing to take anyone else, as they would be denied boarding.

At Robins, while consolidating their belongings into one bag, the family discovers that Nathan’s insulin was left in the car. John hurries back for it, while Allison and Nathan are told that they cannot board because of Nathan’s diabetes, and are then escorted off the base. Realizing what happened, John leaves the base as a panicked mob breaks in, destroying several evacuation planes when gunfire ignites jet fuel. Returning to their car, he finds Allison’s note that they left for her father’s in Lexington, Kentucky. After getting medical supplies from a looted store, Allison and Nathan are picked up by Ralph and Judy Vento. Against Judy’s objections, Ralph kidnaps Nathan, hoping to use him and the wristbands to board a flight.

John hitches a ride on a truck with other survivors from the base. A young man named Colin tells him they are going to Osgoode, Ontario, where private planes are flying to Greenland. Another man sees John’s wristband and attempts to fight him for it, causing the truck to crash and Colin to be killed. The hostile man is then killed by John before he leaves. Back at the evacuation site, Ralph and a reluctant Judy are arrested after failing to pass as Nathan’s parents, and Allison and Nathan reunite shortly afterwards at a FEMA camp across the street. The following day, John learns that the largest fragment is 9 miles wide, and will make impact in approximately 24 hours, as millions of people have already perished in impacts worldwide.

Stealing a car, he finally reaches his father-in-law, Dale, and Nathan and Allison arrive shortly after. After the family learn about a complex of underground bunkers near Thule Air Force Base in Greenland where the evacuees are going, John realizes they have just enough time to reach Osgoode. The family then says goodbye to Dale, continuing in his truck. Hours later, in Upstate New York, they get caught in a traffic jam when a shower of molten debris rains down, destroying vehicles and killing numerous people. John manages to drive to an underpass for refuge and they continue to Canada, learning that Clarke’s largest fragment will impact Western Europe, with the resulting tsunamis and firestorms expected to wipe out more than 75% of all life on Earth. That night, they arrive at the Osgoode airport and persuade the pilot of the last plane to take them.

The next morning, as they approach Greenland, another fragment strikes off the coast, causing them to crash-land. The survivors flag down a military truck and are taken to Thule, and are quickly ushered inside the bunker complex right as the largest fragment enters the atmosphere and slams into Europe, devastating civilization. Nine months later, the bunkers attempt to make radio contact with other potential survivors as various cities are shown in total ruin including Sydney, Mexico City, Paris, and Chicago. The Garritys and the other survivors exit the shelter to see a radically changed landscape, as Greenland makes contact with other stations around the globe. Each are relieved to hear each other and report that the atmosphere is finally clearing, potentially giving humanity the chance to rebuild.
