He blinks gills under his eyes, and then he willingly falls to his death. The man claims "he's coming" and that the world will end. He runs once again and Edwards finally catches him on the roof of a building. Edwards almost catches the man, but he gets away by drawing a weapon that evaporates. The scene cuts to a New York City street, where a young NYPD officer named James Darrell Edwards III (later Agent J, played by Will Smith) chases after a man who he does not know is a Cephalapoid. Dee apologizes for not shooting at Mikey, and since he is getting too old, is neuralyzed by K. Kay then takes off his protective sunglasses and tells the agents that they're lucky to be alive after such a big blast, using the cover story of an underground gas main going up after Janus discharged his gun. When Janus asks Kay who he really is, Kay says he is just a figment of their imagination, and zaps the Neuralyzer, which emits a small camera flash. A containment crew shows up and on Kay's orders scorches the nearby landscape while Kay shows the INS agents a device called a Neuralyzer. Janus's colleagues show up and draw their guns on Kay, who insists that the situation is under control. Kay tells Dee to shoot, but Dee is unable to, so Kay shoots, disintegrating it just in the nick of time. Mikey notices Janus, pushes Dee down, and starts running toward him. They arrest Mikey, not knowing when he was let out of jail, when one of the agents, Janus, notices this. They send the rest of them back into Nick's truck and they take the one who doesn't understand Spanish further out to the desert, where Agent K cuts into the foreigner with a knife, revealing that it is a space alien Mikey. They search the foreigners and they find one that does not understand a word of Spanish. When Nick is about to be arrested, a black car driven by Agent K ( Tommy Lee Jones) with Agent D ( Richard Hamilton) as a passenger pulls up, and they get out of the car claiming to be from the INS, division six.
They find the immigrants and instruct them to form a line.
He is stopped at a Border Patrol checkpoint, where he tries to claim that he was fishing, but the officers insist on looking at his catch. The film opens in the middle of the Arizona desert, with a guy named " Nick the Dick" illegally bringing foreigners into the United States.
