Coach! It's not a drill.

The chemical plant's on fire.

It would take a powerful b*mb to cause what happened out there.

Whoa.

All... dead.

Stay inside.

Tape off all the windows and doors to limit contamination.

There could be more of them out there.

Coach?

[snarling]

[screaming]

Are you okay?

Of course I'm okay.

[moaning softly]

Mary?

[knocks on door]

You okay? Natalie's looking for you.

You worry too much.

It's kind of what a big brother does.

Yeah, well, it's so freaking annoying.

It's like you have some sixth sense that I'm not okay... when I so clearly am.

[sighs]

I know what you're going through.

Somehow I don't think that you do.

I was down there too, you know?

We saw horrible things in that shelter.

Grover, I got bit.

[eerie music]

It was Addie.

What do you think's going to happen to me?

Nothing.

Nothing's going to happen to you. We just need to stay calm.

Well, you don't seem calm.

Yeah, I'm fine. Just...

Just give me a second, okay?

It really hurts, and I don't know if I'm gonna to get sick.

Do you think she gave this to...

Mary, it's just a bite.

You didn't go outside, right?

What are you doing?

Hey.

Uh...

Found it.

I'm not feeling very good.

Should we be worried?

No.

Um, it's just a small fever, that's all.

Seriously, I can just sleep it off.

Since when does a fever need hydrogen peroxide?

Since when do you care?

No, those go in this row.

See? Corn goes with corn.

So that's 53 cans for all of us.

No, your count is off.

It's, uh, 51 cans.

But that should still last us until we get rescued.

Depending on who finds us first.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I just...

I'm just hungry.

Do you have any more soup?

Soup.

Yeah, like the kind that you had earlier, the chicken and rice?

Rice? Um...

But that was over five hours ago. How did you know?

I smelled it on your breath.

Is that, like, some party trick you do, or are you part bloodhound?

I don't know. I...

It's okay.
