Banks’ life and how they’ve played out in the film in reverse. The nature of a palindrome can also be used to understand the events of Dr. Banks is seen having with her daughter, particularly the discussion about the name ‘Hannah’ which is a palindrome, and can be spelled both ways. This gift was the offer from the aliens – they had come to equip humans with this tool, and they would need human help in return, 3000 years in the future. She was now equipped with the ability to change the present as she knew the outcome in the future. The very nature of the alien language had changed her ability to perceive time. She discovers that Abbott is gravely injured by the explosion, and Costello reveals that her dreams and visions have been flashes from her future. Banks rushes back to the pod, who sends a small shuttle to ferry her back inside. Meanwhile, the Chinese government is prepared to attack the shell at their site. The aliens were pushing humans to work with each other. Once Banks recovers from the shock of the explosion, she finds out that Donnelly has interpreted the information by the aliens, and that it is only one-twelfth in quantity, meaning that the rest of the data lies with the other 11 pods. Following the explosion, the pods begin to rise above human reach. The aliens manage to shield the pair using gravity. However, they’re unaware that a few rogue soldiers have planted a timed explosive within the pod, which goes off just as the pair are about to gain more information from the aliens in the form of multiple circular patterns. She believes the beings are non-violent, and ventures out with Donnelly into the pod in one last attempt at dialogue before the army evacuates the landing site. These seem to overlap with her exchanges with the beings. Banks also seems to be disturbed by dreams of her daughter, and of the aliens. This ability is primarily due their complicated language, based on a theory that all thought is affected by linguistics. The aliens process time in a non-linear manner, and are hence able to see the future, present and past simultaneously. Banks and Donnelly decode the alien language, they also begin to understand the complexities of their thought process. Each country chooses to operate in isolation. The world is also on edge – those who have managed to make similar interpretations are now threatening to strike before the aliens do.
She believes the word ‘weapon’ could also mean ‘tool’, but this exacerbates the already tense situation in the American army. Banks manages to decipher that the aliens are present to ‘offer weapon’.

Following a series of communications, Dr. Meanwhile, in other parts of the globe, various nationalities have also made progress communicating with the aliens but are hesitant to share their own findings with other countries, with the intent of having an advantage in the case of an attack. However, the process isn’t fast enough for the army, who is now facing pressure from the American president to understand why the aliens are on Earth. Banks eventually develops a rudimentary form of communication between the extra-terrestrials.
As the two of them begin to slowly interpret and decipher certain patterns, Dr. The beings communicate in the form of dark circles made of vapour, with intricate markings that act as syllables. The two aliens they meet across a thick transparent barrier are depicted with cephalopod-like features, who Donnelly names as Abbott and Costello. Clad in anti-radiation suits they proceed to make their first encounter with the aliens along with some soldiers for security, and to record the interactions for future analysis. Banks is taken to one of the landing sites of the pod-shaped spaceships along with theoretical physicist Ian Donnelly. Banks insists on meeting the extra-terrestrials as she’s unaware of how they communicate. Banks is approached by US Army Colonel Weber who needs her expertise to decipher an alien language. She’s taking a class when a fire alarm goes off leading to an emergency evacuation, which is the first sign of the arrival of the UFOs. Banks goes on to teach linguistics at a university.
