Synopsis

The UFOs turn out to be space crafts for big named companies such as Apple, Sprint, Motorola, and HP. As they come closer and closer to the Earth, giving it no means of escape, a huge shadow is casted over them. To the Earth's surprise , it is a satellite. The satellite along with the surrounding ships fire beams of green light at the panicking Earth, sending it into a brainwashed daze (fade to black). Fading in, we find the Earth hooked and wired to a huge computer being fed information through the wires as it repeats the words "Technology is now...technology is the future...technology is forever." While repeating these words, silhouettes of towers sprout from the Earth's background, a sign that it is a slave to it's corporate captors.Intent
