01x02 - Postcard from Hell

[bunniefuu]

[waves crashing]

[tense music]

Anybody seen Adam?

[screaming]

[groaning]

[retching]

[echoing] You're not
looking good, my son.

I'm going to fix this.

I love you, Adam.

[panting]

[suspenseful music]

[muffled] Adam!

Adam!

[grunting]

Look at me, look at me, boy.

I know what you're going through.

I'm going to fix this, alright?

Look at me. Look at me. Look at me!

Freya, are you ready?

Come on, Freya.

It's ok, son.

- Ready.
- Ok, go.



Good. OK, let's go.

Come on, come on, boy.

Get everything, let's go, let's go.

Stupid kid.

[ominous music]

Freya, hurry.

[thunder rumbling]

This way, this way.

[suspenseful music]

[breathing heavily]

[soft melancholic music]

[suspenseful music]

[thunder rumbling]

The Miasma is erupting
from deep underground.

Pressure's building up,
pushing it up and out.

Could explain the seismic movement,
maybe a fissure.

There's definitely going to be others.

That's the best I've got.

They're not coming back, Stella.

- We have to leave.
- Where?

- Jay said...
- This is the end of the line,

and let me state the obvious, I can't walk.

Drummer, you're not going back in.

I'm not going to have to,

because it's coming for us.

[thunder rumbling]

He'll be out for hours

and then we'll see.

He wasn't exposed for long, Freya.
He was inside.

He's going to be fine.

I said, we'd see.

[rain pattering]

He will be fine.

Let's get a fire started here.

This is where we stay for the night.

See if we can find anything else, OK?

Let's go.

[suspenseful music]

Look at me.

First stage, first stage.

You got through it.

And I got through it.

- He's strong and he's young.
- And he's never been medicated.

- We don't know how his body is going to react...
- There's no other choice.

Do you understand that?

No choice!

How many lives have
we lost, Sol? Over the years.

- How many have you had to...
- Had to what?

Had to what?

Release?

Hmm?

You keep the boy warm.

You talk to him. He'll hear you.

[birds chirping]

[water running]

[tense music]

[melancholy music]

[cigar sizzling]

[growling]

Any person, man, woman or child,

any creature suffering the Fear
must be given salvation.

Mercy delivered swift and sure.

The Pact, brother,

the Pact.

[dramatic music]

Now who's playing God.

[somber music]

[thunder rumbling]

[groaning]

[wind howling]

What the f*ck?

Going to the beach?

I...

It's pretty.

Yeah, that's pretty.

Eyes and ears, Mara. Food and water.

You understand?

One day.

Maybe.

[dramatic music]

[sighs]

[thunder rumbling]

Barry.

Yeah, the postcard from hell.

Close the portal.

What portal?

But wait, there's more.

[somber music]

I know, right?

[wood clattering]

[thunder rumbling]

[sniffles]

[crashing]

Don't worry. I'll do this, you just sit there.

You got any smokes left?

They're stale as f*ck.

I quit,

but that was yesterday.

You can try again tomorrow.

I will do that.

How is Mara doing?

She's good.

Good.

Thank you. You guys did well.

Look what I found.

Could be something, could be nothing.

Nah, that's something.

[thunder rumbling]

Oh yeah, it's something.

Oh no! I want to wait
and see if you die first.

[laughing]

To Jay.

To everyone we've lost.

[pensive music]

[tense music]

Hey! I'm just a friendly guy.

Not looking for much.
Not looking for an argument.

- I've been following you.
- You've been following us.

Well, I had to make sure
you were friendly as well.

Now I guess that all depends
on what you want, mister.

Just companionship, protection,
partner up for a while.

[scoffs]

- Are you alone?
- Not by choice.

It's easy to lose people around here.

I hunt, I fish, I fight.

Where are you headed?

- Wherever you are.
- Wherever we are.

My name is Kane.

[sighs]

[thunder rumbling]

Ahhh, that was not fun.

[grunts]

Said a little prayer.

[suspenseful music]

Maybe it helps him get into heaven.

He had marks on his neck.

Speculate.

He was definitely strangled.

I don't know,
by maybe Johnson or Garcia.

I don't know, maybe Perry was infected?

Was a mercy k*lling?

And a message.

A portal, a gateway?

Or an exit.

The arch could be the portal,

the source of the Miasma.

But what about the cube?

No idea. Behind the wall,
there's nothing. It's barren land.

Except...

Except marked here is ruins.


Speculate.

Uh, 13th century, uh,

a castle or a keep.

A watchtower.

Yeah, or a monastery.

Monastery. And these are all
structures that could have an arch.

And maybe shelter for anyone
who's still alive.

I'm going to find out.

Sky's blue, sun is shining.

Everyone's here.

Everyone's fine.

There's nothing to worry about.

Nothing to worry about.

[rain pattering]

How's he doing?

His breathing is regulated,

so is his pulse.

That's good.

And you?

I

I don't know.

We'll know when he wakes up.

This is Kane.

He'll be joining us for a while.

This your boy?

Adam.

He's about the same age as mine.

- You got a son?
- No, a daughter.

[thunder rumbling]

Is he infected?

- Yeah.
- Temperature?

It's coming down.

Well, it's a good sign.

I need a moment with you, right now.

[thunder rumbling]

[suspenseful music]

Is she due?

She's not sure.

It's not a big deal, yet.

- Not a big deal?
- No.

- Look Freya, if she's...
- We'll deal with it.

It's what we do.

Kane?

Kane.

He's looking for company, that's all.

I told Ramiz to keep an eye on him.

It'll be fine.

Let Mara be.

[somber music]

[thunder rumbling]

Would you be a man
with a cunning plan?

Oh, we'll see.

With those?

Yeah, going to put on a light show.
A little night time entertainment.

- Drinks?
- Yeah.

Yeah I want to send 'em a signal.

Let 'em know we're still here.

See if anything happens.

[sighs] What if nothing happens?

I'm going to get the drinks.

[thunder rumbling]

[fire crackling]

[suspenseful music]

There.

That station, what's there?

It's not about what's there,
it's about who's there.

People may have some answers.

We're expected to be there.

My brother, Jay, was in contact
with some of them briefly.

He recorded the start and
the spread of the Miasma.

The stages of infection.

Stage one: Disorientation,
survivable by heavy duty sedatives.

Not for everyone.

Stage two: Mental disintegration.

- And stage three...
- The Fear.

Yeah. The Fear.

Jay had some theories as to why.

He thought maybe it could be stopped.

- [gasps]
- [thunder rumbling]

You're OK. Sol!

Adam!

It's OK, it's OK.

It's just a storm.

Get some water.

That moment in the church.

We had to dose you up.

Everything's going to be fine now, son.

Everything's going to be fine.

Who's that?

He's a new friend.

His name is Kane.

Adam,

do you remember what I said
to you in the cave?

Yeah.

What? What did I say?

We're mean b*stards.

The meanest.

That's right.

- I'm a mean b*stard.
- Yes, you are.

I love you, son.

Everything's going to be fine.

[suspenseful music]

[thunder rumbling]

A little something to warm you up.

I'm not gonna ask you what's in this.

[sighs] It's probably a good idea.

You took your time.

How many have you had?

A couple.

You need to be careful.

The Miasma is acting up.
I've never seen it this bad.

Yeah.

I don't think we have any other options.

Hey.

Don't do anything stupid.

I won't.

[pensive music]

[flare sizzling]

Drummer, be careful!

Drummer, stop!

Drummer!

Drummer!

Johnson!

Hey!

I know you're in here.

I saw you.

Garcia!

Hey, guys, it's me.

[eerie music]

It's me, Drummer.

I got your message.

[heavy breathing]

Not a message. Bait!

[suspenseful music]
