Stop it, Drew.

It's just a stupid animal,
it doesn't have feelings.
Yes, it does have feelings.
(Drew laughs)
Stop.
Come on.
- What?
You gonna cry now?
You're such a wimp.
He does have feelings, you jerk.
Come on, say it to my face.
I dare you.
That's what I thought.
Leave him alone!
Ow!
You're dead now!
You better run!

Hey, boy, where'd you come from?
You shouldn't be here.
You okay?

(Harley panting)
(soft music)
(zipper rasping)
[Father] All right, who's hungry?
[Harley] Do we have any cookies?
[Father] No, I didn't
bring any cookies today.
[Harley] Wait, how do you make cookies
if we can't have eggs?
[Father] Well, Harley,
it's actually pretty easy,
but I'd have to show you
later on in the week.
Right now, what we have is carrots.
You can't live on cookies alone.
So how about some carrots?
- Okay.
- All right.
Diane, could you pass-
(soft music)
(soft music continues)
(Harley sighs)
(soft music continues)
(water streaming)
(soft music)
Harley, you scared me.
I didn't hear you come down.
Good morning, Mom.
Good morning.
Hey, I got a busy day today.
I've got go to the post office
'cause I'm almost outta stamps.
And then I'm gonna go to the grocery store
and, uh, grab those noodles that you like.
And then I have to go to the pharmacy
'cause I'm almost out of
these pills that they gave me.
And I, I really think you're working.
Can I get you anything while I'm out?
[Harley] Mom, you need to slow down.
I got you some of that bread
that you like from Bread Shed.
Hey, don't you have to
sign that lease today
for the new apartment by the school?
Mom?
But you are the one that said
you wanted to get a place of your own.
We've already been over this.
I told them I'm not taking it.
I'm not leaving you here like this.
It's too soon.
I'm feeling so much better now.
You have to go and, and, and
enjoy your life, go adult.
Look, if you want me outta your hair,
you gotta start taking
your health more serious.
I just want you to be happy
and not to have to worry
about your old mother.
But, but I do worry.
(Diane sighs)
Look,
I just want you to get better, that's all.
I know, I know, but it's
not as easy as it sounds.
It's actually not as hard as it seems.
And you have me here to help you.
This, this, this.
Mom, the foods you eat,
they're not gonna heal your heart.
And, and I know, once upon a time
these alternatives tasted like cardboard,
I can admit that, but
that was a long time ago.
Nowadays, there's so many
delicious foods to choose from
and anything of mine is yours.
Harley.
And these are so much better for you.
Maybe, maybe give it a try.
I, I know and I'm trying,
but I, I just don't want you to feel
like you have to stick
around and take care of me.
You need to go and have
fun, enjoy your life.
Mom.
And I promise, I, I, I'll try harder.
I promise.
Thanks, Mom.
And, hey,
we'll talk more about this later tonight.
I gotta get to school.
Love you.
I love you too.
Drive safe.
(birds chirping)
I'll be back.

[Radio Announcer] Morning.
It's a beautiful day here in Amherst.
We do have some breaking news to report.
There are several reports
what appears to be a
stomach bug going around.
Now, experts are not
quite sure of the cause,
but an investigation is underway.
You are being advised to use discretion
and stay home if you aren't feeling well.
Indy, please.

Nearly gave you a heart attack
Thought I told you to watch your back
Never know what to expect
Down here that's the only solid fact
Guess I'd rather be on vacation
Guess I haven't got the education
I don't really have an explanation
So you found a new game to play
Thought I told you to stay away
But I see you're here anyway
So yeah, guess you're
welcome to overstay
Just don't build up your expectations
It's not a good time
to test my patience
I don't get in these situations
'Cause you're chasing the hurricane
Taking the name in vain
My God it's such a shame
'Cause you got yourself into this
It says enter at your own risk
Now your name is on my list
And you are exactly where I want
They say I probably lost my mind
Well, you're welcome to try and find
Guess I have my own destination
And you're staring at
the wrong direction
(upbeat music)
Hurricane, name in vain
Cell mutations.
If we consider a virus to be
similar to a eukaryotic cell,
where would the actual mutation originate?
Stefania?
It would originate in the DNA?
That's correct, but where
would the effects be observed?
The RNA.
Not quite.
Anyone?
In the protein.
That's correct.
The RNA is where the
mutation will be amplified.
It's the protein where
we will see the effects
of the mutations.
Once the cell is mutated at the RNA,
it's then magnified through
the rest of the stages.

(people chattering)
Hi, I, uh, I, I-
Fill this out, it's gonna be a while.
We're swamped.
Oh, what's going on?
Some kind of bug.
Seems everybody's got it.
Just fill that out and we'll
get to you when we get to you.
O-okay.
(people chattering)
Is genetic mutation a positive
or negative?
Harley?
Uh, yeah, sure.
It's, uh, generally a neutral thing.
Sometimes it can be negative.
It destroys the cell,
which destroys the host
and in rare occurrences it can
be a positive transformation
of the cell instead.
That, that is correct.
(foreboding music)
Is there something
important outside, Harley?
Yeah, it's just, there was...
Nevermind, I guess it's nothing.
Okay, guys, don't forget,
read chapter six for Monday.
(students chattering)
[Student] Oh, my God. (Laughing)
- It's weird.
- I don't know,
it's like a...
- Yep.

Nick.
Hey.
What's going on?
I thought you had class all day today.
Yeah, but I felt like leaving early
so I'm skipping my last class.
Dude, it's like a ghost town in there.
Everyone's going home sick or something.
Yeah, it is a bit strange.
Cafeteria breakfast?
Nah, I ate that breakfast too.
Pretty good actually.
- Hey, geek-squad, hold up.
- Tst, can I get a ride?
Hurry get in.
Move over dweeb.
[Nick] You're suck a d*ck.
(laughs) Don't get
your panties in a bunch.
Drew, what are you doing?
What, can't I hang out with
my old high school buddies?
[Harley and Nick] He needs a ride.
My car's in the shop, man, c'mon.
Getting a brand new custom paint job.
It's gonna be sick.
Oh, what do we got here?
(light music)
Hey, guys.
Hey, ladies.
Where you headed?
Just about to grab a bite to eat.
You guys want to join?
(light music)
Are you paying?
Absolutely.
Look, man.
[Natalie] Where?
Dantes.
See you there.
(car engine roaring)
[Drew] Let's go, man.
[Harley] Alright.

Here's this whenever you're ready.
- Alright, thank you.
- You're welcome.
(upbeat music)
[Harley] Look, I, I can't stay.
[Drew] C'mon, we'll be fast.
[Harley] Can't you bum
a ride with someone else?
I really don't want to go in there.
[Drew] Sure you do.
Wanna know why?
(keys jangling)
- Drew, Drew, no!
Drew!
- 'Cause I got these.
- Dammit!
- Your keys, please.
I could eat again.
I am kind of craving a milkshake.
Okay, okay.
Let's go.
[Nick] Who knows?
Maybe they'll make you something special.
(footsteps clomping)
(lively music)
(people chattering)
What's up, ladies?
- Hey.
- Hey.
Howdy.
Right here.
Hello.
Hey, guys, how's it going?
I'm Beth.
Can I get you something to drink to start?
I'm ready, can we just order?
- Uh, sure.
- Cool.
I'll have the bacon deluxe cheeseburger,
um, side of fries and root beer.
Okay.
I'm gonna get the same.
It's my favorite.
Uh, except can I get a ginger ale instead?
[Beth] Sure.
I'm just gonna get the grilled
cheese and a side of fries.
Okay, and a drink with that?
- Just water.
- Okay.
And for you?
Oh, can I just have the house salad,
but with dressing on the side?
What?
Greasy food makes my stomach hurt.
And I'm also on a diet,
so no croutons and a diet coke, okay?
Thank you.
Okay, and for you?
Um, I actually don't know.
I'm not sure
She'll have what I'm having.
No, no, no.
I don't want that.
Give her what I'm having.
Trust me.
It's the best thing on the menu.
Okay, great choice.
Um, something to drink with that?
Yeah, can I get a root beer, please?
- Sure.
- Thank you.
Mm-hmm.
And for you?
I'll do the scrambled
egg deluxe, please.
Scrambled eggs deluxe, please.
[Beth] Do you want bacon with that?
Uh, yeah.
And, uh, hash browns and
a chocolate shake too.
Got it.
And for you?
I'm good.
You sure? Nothing to drink?
We got coffee, soda,
fresh squeezed orange juice, milkshakes.
I'll take the orange juice.
Okay, got it.
At least get a side
of fries or something.
Wait, are you on a diet too?
No, I just don't
really have an appetite.
Harley's not eating 'cause...
Because why?
He's a vay-gan.
Oh, wait, you know what?
I'm actually kind of a vegan myself.
- Really?
- Uh-uh.
No, Katie.
Vegans don't eat animal products.
You're a vegetarian.
Oh.
Whatever. More for me.
Drew, have some respect.
Speaking of vegans,
I was at my uncle's farm the other day
and he gave me some fresh jerky.
You guys wanna try some?
Yes, please.
[Paige] Which uncle?
Kind of animal is this made from?
- Your mom.
- Yeah.
- (indistinct) all day.
- Like plether.
(group chattering indistinctly)
- In your pocket all day?
- Yeah.

Don't listen to what Drew says.
I totally respect you for being vegan.
I mean, I personally couldn't do it.
I could never give up meat
or cheese.
Oh, I couldn't imagine
living without cheese.
You know we have vegan cheese, right?
Yeah, it's not very good, right?
(scoffs) Well, it's like anything else.
Some of it's good, some of it's bad.
Well, what made you
decide to be vegan anyways?
- Well-
- Chow time.
Let's eat.
Oh, oh, you (indistinct).
Yeah, kind of like have (indistinct).
[Katie] Aren't fries vegan?
[Nick] Think so.
[Beth] Anything else you need right now?
Any ketchup?
(indistinct) vegetarian.
These fries are really good.
[Drew] Hm.
(light music)
Can I, can I have some of your...
Hell, yeah, dig in.
Yeah, should have got that.
[Katie] Is parm vegan?
[Paige] Uh, no.
[Katie] It's too hard.
Katie, it's not that hard.
There's vegan versions of everything.
Vegan butter?
- Yeah.
- That's all.
Wait, can I, we-
- Oh.
- Oh.
I am so sorry.
No, actually it's okay.
I really wasn't that hungry.
- Are you sure?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anyway, I'm good, I promise.
It's all good.
We can get you another one.
Nope, mm-mm.
You can have half of mine.
Do you wanna have half of mine?
You have half of mine.
No, no, no, I'm good, can
we yeah, can we toss it?
Hey.
No sense in letting a
good burger go to waste.
- Oh, Drew, don't.
- God.
- What, five-
- Ew, there's a hair in there.
Five second rule.
(all groaning)
What?
- Disgusting.
Five second rule.
- It doesn't matter.
- Isn't that a hair in there
from Natalie.
- See the hair?
[Natalie] That's not how it works.
[Katie] So the thing
with this diet that I'm on,
it's like no carbs, no...
I gotta get going.
Alright, we're still eating.
[Harley] Can I have my keys?
Stay for bit, man, c'mon.
Give me the keys.
No.
Keys?
Oh.
(group chattering)
Hey, guys, sorry, I gotta get going.
I have a few things to do
and I gotta feed my dog.
I apologize.
[Drew] Stay a little while longer.
[Harley] I know, I know, I'm sorry.
I'll see you guys later though.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Peace, losers.
Not enough vegan option for him.
Wait, his sweatshirt (mumbles).
- Hmm.
- Hmm.
All right, so let's talk about it.
Vanessa's been talking about Harley
non stop.
- Really?
See how fast she picked up that sweater.
- Yeah.
- Shut up.
For real?
- Yeah.
- Harley?
Mm-hmm.
Wow. Wow.
What, I think they'd have cute babies.
Wait, wait up, you forgot something.
- Oh. Oh.
- Yeah.
Um, listen, I'm sorry Drew
was such a d*ck to you guys.
It was just Drew being Drew.
Yeah.
Well, I was thinking
maybe we can get together sometime
and cook up some vegan
cheeseburgers or something.
- Sure, yeah, that'd be great.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
Absolutely. Yes.
Yes.
- Okay, cool.
Okay, cool, see you guys.
(gentle music)
Why's he always gotta be such a d*uche?
Because Drew wouldn't
be Drew if he wasn't.
True.
(cellphone vibrating)
Hey, Mom, this is a first from you.
Not a single text all day.
Hey, I'm gonna stop at the store
and, uh, I'll be home later.
See you then.
(tense music)
Holy sh*t, that was close.
[Harley] What is it with this guy?
Dude needs to lay off the bath salts.
(objects clacking)
(tense music)
(tense music continues)
(dramatic music)
Bit me, he bit me. (Groaning)
(groans) He bit me.
Hey, we need back up!
He bit me, he bit me.
(doctor grunting)
[Security] (grunts) Oh, sh*t!
(tense music)
Ma'am, stay back.
(tense music)
(doctor groaning)
Need backup!
Help!
(tense music)
Very bizarre behavior being reported
in and around the small town of Amherst.
And authorities don't quite
know what to make of it.
What we do know
is that there appears to be
a stomach bug going around.
- Did they say anything yet?
- And the hospital
is filling up fast.
Some sort of food poisoning.
- You are being advised-
- Nobody knows,
but it's on every channel.
- To stay home
until further notice.
Now, we have eyes on the
ground at Amherst General
reporting live.
Let's see what's unfolding.
Pat, what can you tell us
from your vantage point
at this moment?
Thank you, Jane.
It is chaos here at Amherst General.
I'm standing directly outside the building
and people are panicking.
People are complaining of
dizziness and stomach pains.
People are, oh, my God,
what are you doing?
(people screaming)
Oh, dear.
Well, I sure hope they're okay.
Stay tuned.
We will bring you more
as this story unfolds.
(Diane panting)
Harley, pick up the damn phone.
Oh, my God, what is happening?
[Katie] Don't judge me,
Drew's eating a burger off the floor.
- That's true.
- Yeah, but do you expect
much from Drew?
- No, you're right back.
Let's talk about Drew's look.
He's rocking boat chic today.
Boat.
- Vanessa.
- My dad's probably
passed out by now.
I could probably steal his truck.
Give me a ride to, uh...
Oh, you guys are gonna hate me.
- Why?
- We already do.
[Drew] I left my
wallet in Harvey's truck.
- Are you serious?
- C'mon.
I'll get the next one.
Yeah, that's what you said last time.
This just so typically, ask
all of us out on a date.
You don't even f*ck' pay.
C'mon, girl.
Find your own ride home.
- Oh, come on.
- That's embarrassing.
- Really?
Enjoy your floor burger, Drew.

[Harley] Hey, I have to stop by Clarks
and pick up a few things
if that's okay with you.
It's fine by me.
I might have to pick up
some antacids myself.
You're not gonna hurl
in my truck, are you?
I think I'll be fine.
I'll let you know if we need to pull over?
Okay.
(tense music)
(truck door slams)
[Nick] I knew we shouldn't
have went to that diner.
(light music)
(car engine turning)
I can't believe he didn't f*cking pay.
It's fine, I'll just do
more overtime (indistinct).
Holy...
(tires screeching)
This as*h*le doesn't know
who he's dealing with.
[Vanessa] What are you doing?
Just go, just keep going.
- No.
- Yeah.
Go, go, go.
(all shouting)
(Paige screaming)
(tires screeching)
(all screaming)
(light music)
Hey, how do you think they actually
get the milk out of an oat?
(tense music)
Paige, oh my God, I'm so sorry.
You okay?
- No.
- God, why the hell
would he do that?
I don't know, he's out of his mind.
Call the police or something.
Why do I have to do it?
- Do it!
- Okay.
Hey, Paige, did he hurt you?
He bit me.
Let me see.
You're safe now.
Just, just drive.
God, a busy signal for 911.
Really?
I think I know a place we can go.
(car engine revving)
(bright music)
(bright music continues)
(bright music continues)
- Hey.
- What we need down here?
Oh, right, your antacids.
Of course, how could
I forget the antacids?
It's the one thing I actually
needed to get in the store.
There you are.
You notice how dead it is in here?
There's like nobody here.
Yes, it's 'cause half
the people in this town
are in this aisle right now.
But it's the middle of the day.
But it's a school day, I don't know.
- How's it going?
- Good.
You guys found everything all right?
Yeah.
Sure you're okay, man.
(scanner beeping)
Yeah.
Fine.
(scanner beeping)
Total is $38.79.
Alright, you're all set.
Alright, thanks a lot.
(bright music)
[Nick] Hey, can you hand me those?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
My stomach's k*lling me.
Must've been those eggs.
I know, I know, I'm sorry, okay?
I know why you didn't want to go there.
Go where?
- The diner.
Yeah.
I know you're vegan,
don't have a lot of options for you there
and it's gotta gross you out
watching us eat all that junk.
I mean, yeah, that is one
of the reasons, to be honest.
But they've done studies,
like legit studies.
You put eggs and bacon in your gut,
over time, it ends up
clogging up your arteries
and it takes a toll on your heart.
And that's bad, it's real bad.
It's even worse for the poor animals.
You're my best friend and I
care about you, that's all.
(train clanging)
(train horn blaring)
[Vanessa] sh*t.
I saw the way you were looking at her.
Looked at who?
(cellphone ringing)
Mom?
Uh, no, it's Vanessa.
Oh, Vanessa, sorry, I thought...
It, it's okay.
Listen, did you see that
man at the parking lot
when we left the diner?
Yeah, that weird guy, he
was just standing there.
I almost backed into him.
Yeah, we did too.
He attacked us and he bit Paige.
What?
She okay?
Yeah, there's blood,
yeah, but she'll be okay.
It's all right sweetie,
we'll get you cleaned up.
Did you recognize him?
No, I've never seen him before.
I-I'm assuming you called the police.
I mean, we did, but
we couldn't get through.
What, what do you mean
you couldn't get through?
You just dialed 911, right?
I mean, yeah, but we
kept getting busy signal
or a recording saying an
operator was too busy.
So, that's why I called you.
I guess it's to see if either of you...
(phone jangles)
(upbeat music)
That's weird.
What the hell's going on?
I think she digs you.
(Nick groans)
Do you need me to pull over?
(groans) I'm dying.
I really don't feel good.
Look, you're gonna be fine.
My house is on the way,
let me just drop this stuff
off and, I don't know,
you can splash water on your
face or puke or something.
Sure. Okay.
(upbeat music)
(upbeat music continues)
(Nick sighs)
- [Harley] You coming in?
I think I'm just gonna wait here.
Alright, I'll be right back.
(Nick groans)
(birds chirping)
[Mrs B] Oh, hi, Harley, how you doing?
Hey, Mrs. B, how's it going?
Ah, you know, I'm trying
to take down this old fence
and boy, what a job.
I'll tell you what, if
you wait till tomorrow,
I'll help you with it.
[Mrs B] Really?
Sure.
Oh, Harley, thank you so much.
That's a big help.
No problem.
I'll see you then.
(door closes)
(birds chirping)
(Nick groaning)
(tense music)
(Nick grunting)
(Nick panting)
(Nick groans)
You hungry?
Come on, let's go eat.
I'm hungry.
Here we go.
(sighs) Where's Mom?
(pellets crunching)
What the?
Mom.
(tense music)
(tense music continues)
(pellets crunching)
Mom.
(tense news)
Nick.
(Nick chomping)
(ominous music)
What the?
Gross.
Nick?
(Nick chomping)
Nick?
Nick?
(Nick grunting)
Mrs B?
Nick, what are you doing?
(Nick growling)
Nick?
(Nick growling)
(car engine humming)
All right, thanks, man, I owe you one.
Appreciate it.
Yo, bro, I left my wallet in your truck.
(footsteps clomping)
(Nick snarling)
Nick! Nick!
Get off, Nick!
Nick, stop!
(tense music)
I knew it.
(Nick snarling)
Drew.
Drew, help!
Get him off me!
- Alright, ladies,
break it up.
Break it up.
- Get him off me.
(Nick snarling)
(tense music)
(Drew grunts)
(Nick snarling)
Harley, do something here!
Do it, man!
Harley, do it!
Gimme that!
(tense music)
(Nick growling)
(Drew panting)
(foot thudding)
Drew, stop.
I had to, I had to
do it, I had no choice.
What is going on, man?
What the hell is that?
I don't know.
[Drew] Where you going?
I'm gonna call the police.
Do you have a better idea?
(foot thudding)
(tense music)
(Harley panting)
Vanessa was right.
What the hell is happening?
What would make him act like that, man?
He was like a rabid animal.
I don't know, he, he said he was sick.
Some...
I...
sh*t, the, the girls, they called.
They said something happened to them too.
They, they were attacked at the diner.
What?
(camcorder beeps)
Uh, Harley?
Did you not see me just stick
a spade through Nick's head?
This ain't the time for you
to be sitting here watching your videos?
[Harley] I don't want
you to go away again.
Hello?
[Father] I'll be back before you-
(camcorder clicks)
(tense music)
(footsteps thudding)
(tense music continues)
(Harley sighs)
(Harley panting)
(Harley grunting)
Got a clean shirt for me or something?
C'mon, man, "Vegan AF."
You don't have anything else?
It'll grow on ya.
(Drew sighs)
We gotta do something, man.
[Drew] What do we do?
[Harley] I don't know.
(clothes rustling)
(grim music)
(car engine humming)
(tense music)
Paige.
Come here.
Coming.
(intense music)
(tense music)
(Katie exhales)
I'm sorry, sweetie.
(water gushing)
We'll fix this right up.
What do you mean you don't know?
I thought you were supposed to be smart.
Isn't that the basic definition of a nerd?
Smart.
(sighs) Can't believe we k*lled Nick, man.
No, you can't believe you k*lled Nick.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I saved your a*s, you should thank me.
Thank you? For what?
For k*lling my best friend.
Don't even go there.
Look.
Maybe, maybe Nick had a bug or,
or a virus or something.
A virus?
(Paige panting)
(tense music)
Hey, have you been able
to get a hold of anyone?
What do you mean?
Have you been able to call anyone?
You know, I'm not much of a caller,
more of a texter, really.
Gosh.
Has anyone responded to your texts?
No, not yet.
Same.
More like he was possessed.
No.
Maybe.
Look, I don't know.
I've never seen anything like this.
But Vanessa called
and she said the guy
down at the diner today,
he bit Paige.
Huh?
I think he may have
been sick like Nick was.
And, and then she-
Where are they?
I don't know, they were driving.
Okay, so let's wait it out here.
No, we can't stay here.
Why? We're safe here?
Because Drew, I've been trying
to contact my mom all day.
She's not responding.
It's not like her.
Maybe she's on her way back.
Maybe.
Or maybe she's trapped
somewhere and she needs my help.
(Drew sighs)
What are you doing with
all that stuff anyway?
If whatever k*lled Nick is contagious.
There's gonna be a lot
more people losing control
and attacking one another.
And if that happens, I want to be ready.
(laughs) Like you were with Nick?
This is some messed up sh*t.
What if the girls are infected?
I don't know, you know as much as I do.
You okay?
Yeah, I'm fine, why?
Well, Nick started feeling
sick after eating at the diner.
Can we just get on with it?
Hey, no, Indy, come here.
Help me move the body.
Uh-uh, I ain't going near him.
We can't leave him
here for my mom to find.
Grab his legs.
Come on.
(grim music)
(tense music)
I'm not doing too well, Nat.
sh*t, they've been in
there a really long time.
I'm gonna go check on them.
Guys, how's it going in there?
She's not doing too well.
sh*t, all right, let me in.
Maybe I can help.
(Paige panting)
(tense music)
Oh.
(Paige moaning)
Oh, no.
(Natalie gagging)
- What the hell?
Guys?
Guys, come on, let me in.
Guys, this isn't funny.
Come on, let me in.
[Drew] Hey, look.
There they are.
(tense music)
(truck engine rumbling)
[Vanessa] I'm so glad to see you.
[Harley] Are you guys okay?
[Drew] Where is everyone?
Yeah, we're okay, we're fine.
Nat's inside fixing up Paige
and Katie just went to check on them.
[Drew] That guy actually bit her?
Yeah. Total lunatic.
Have you guys noticed
something weird's going on
Guys, help, something's wrong!
Help!
(Indy barks and growls)
I don't know what to do.
I, I tried to open the
door and they slammed shut.
Honestly.
I don't know what I'm
supposed to do right now.
(Paige moaning)
(tense music)
Oh.
Oh, sh*t.
Oh. (Groaning)
(tense music)
(Natalie groaning)
(Paige growling)
(Natalie groaning)
What the hell is wrong with me?
sh*t!
(dramatic music)
(Natalie thudding)
(Katie screams)
(Natalie screaming)
[Vanessa] Guys, we gotta do something.
Maybe there's a key inside?
On it!
I better go with him.
You know, make sure the little guy's okay.
(light music)
Hello?
Hello.
What are you doing?
You should be out there with them.
Dude, they're fine. Relax.
Plus, one of them comes
out looking like Nick,
you better give me the bat.
I won't hesitate to use it.
Can you ever not be
a d*ck, just for once?
Where's the bat?
It's in my truck.
A lot of good it'll do us there.
Shh!
(light music)
(light music continues)
(mop thudding)
It's just a mop, nerd.
The keys probably up front
anyway, behind the counter.
(zombie growling and snarling)
(footsteps thudding)
(zombie growling and snarling)
(g*n clicking)
(zombie continues growling and snarling)
(g*nsh*t booming)
(intense music)
Was that a g*nsh*t?
I don't know.
I'm gonna go check it out.
Stay here.
Paige, come on, please.
(zombie growling)
(intense music)
Paige?
(Katie screams)
(Paige snarling)
(zombie growling)
- Let's get outta here.
(zombie growling)
(Katie screaming)
(intense music)
(Katie continues screaming)
(intense music continues)
(Katie continues screaming)
Vanessa! (Screaming)
(bowl thudding and shattering)
(zombie snarling)
- Did you hear that?
- No.
(Katie gibbering)
[Vanessa] Go, go, go, go, go.
(Katie grunting)
Oh, go, go, go.
(Katie panting)
(zombie growling)
(Katie and Vanessa screaming)
(zombie continues growling)
Get down!
(Katie and Vanessa screaming)
(g*nsh*t booming)
(Katie and Vanessa screaming)
(g*nsh*t booming)
(zombie growling)
(g*nsh*t booming)
(light music)
My dad taught me to sh**t
while you guys were
still wetting yourselves.
Give me the key to the truck.
It's in the ignition.
You two all right?
Yeah, yeah, I'm okay, are you?
No, I am not okay!
My best friend literally just
ate my other best friend.
- I know-
- And then tried to eat me!
How the hell do you think I feel?
(Katie sobbing)
Same thing happened to Nick.
What?
Are you saying Nick's dead?
What?
Yeah.
(Katie sobbing)
- Let's get outta here.
C'mon, let's, let's, let's go.
C'mon.
(Katie sobbing)
(zombie growling)
(Katie screams)
Go, go, go, go, go, go.
(zombie growling and snarling)
(solemn music)
[Drew] Get in, let's go!
(solemn music continues)
(solemn music continues)
(solemn music continues)
(solemn music continues)
(solemn music continues)
(solemn music continues)
Bad news.
What's wrong now?
We're gonna be walking soon.
We're on E.
(cellphone ringing)
Mom?
Mom.
Harland.
Harland.
I couldn't reach you.
Something bad is happening.
Something really bad is happening.
Mom, listen to me.
I need you to go home right now.
Go inside and lock the door.
Mom?
Mom!
(phone jingles)
sh*t!
Pull over.
(solemn music)
(gravel crunching)
(solemn music continues)
[Drew] Told you we'd be walking?
Is your mom okay?
I hope so.
I think her phone died.
So what the hell is this?
Does anyone know?
What'd that article say?
Amherst Labs was on it.
My friend Jerry interns there.
Maybe he knows something.
That might be worth looking into.
You think you can get a hold of him?
Yeah, of course, I'll try his cell.
(soft tense music)
(bird calling)
[Jerry] Vanessa.
Jerry, thank God you answered.
[Jerry] Have you seen the news?
Uh, no.
But I assume you're
referring to the people
eating each other.
[Jerry] Yeah, that's exactly
what I'm referring to actually.
Do you know what's causing it,
what's happening to everyone?
[Jerry] A little.
I do, however, know somebody
who could answer those
questions better than me,
but I shouldn't say too
much over the phone.
Where are you?
Ah, we're by the train tracks
about two miles west of town.
[Jerry] I see.
You're actually not too far then.
Keep following the tracks west
until you come upon a broken
building on the right.
Wait for me there.
I won't be long.
(tense music)
All right, guys.
He said follow the tracks
until we come to some
broken-down building.
Let's go.
(tense music)
(foliage rustling)
So you never really
did answer my question.
[Harley] What question is that?
[Vanessa] Why you're vegan.
I mean, don't you miss being
able to eat whatever you want?
I mean, I, I can eat whatever I want.
I guess...
I guess I just choose not
to eat certain things.
The foods that I do eat are
things I really do enjoy.
But I get it. Why am I vegan?
All right.
Take Indy, for example,
would you ever hurt him or could you?
No, I could never.
Why?
I mean, why?
I mean, look at him.
He's awesome.
He's beautiful and he clearly loves you.
I mean, we saw the way he protected you.
Sure, those things are all true.
But there's more to Indy,
he, he has the same emotions that we have.
His, his feelings are similar to ours.
There's moments when he is
happy, playful, curious.
Hell, he's even sad and lonely sometimes.
(gentle music)
I guess what I'm trying to say is,
there's really no difference
between Indy and a cow
or a pig or even a chicken.
They all feel pain.
They protect their young
and they wanna live, just like you and me.
I guess I just...
I just never thought about it like that.
Well, most people don't.
For a minute in the quiet
It feels like it was before
I get lost just for a moment
Thinking I'm not where I am
And I didn't wanna feel this way
Harland?
Tired of being out of place
Give me a one way ticket
Harland?
Out of here
Some place I know I can be happy
It's not
Harland!
In my head
I'm not myself
Harland!
I feel so low
(crying) Oh, God.
I'm not myself
(gentle music)
(car engine roaring)
(gentle music continues)
(birds calling)
My, my camera.
sh*t, my bag.
I gotta get it.
It's in the back of the truck.
Screw your bag, dude.
We're not going back.
You don't have to, I'll go myself.
Okay, yeah, that does not
sound like a good idea to me.
I left my phone too.
You can just use one of ours.
You don't have to go back and grab it.
I have to.
I have to go back.
Drew, give me the keys.
I ain't got 'em.
Look, look, I-I'll be quick.
Here, take this and keep Indy with you.
You stay with them, I'll be right back.
I'll be right back.
I promise.
Come.
(Indy panting)
Come on, buddy.
You're gonna be okay.
(Indy whimpering)
Come on, you're gonna be fine.
Come.
Come. Come on.
(Indy whimpering)
(gentle music)
(Indy panting)
(gentle music continues)
Indy, you were supposed
to stay with them.
Did you miss me?
All right.
Come on.
(gentle music)
(gentle music continues)
(gentle music continues)
(foliage rustling)
(birds calling)
(soft tense music)
(zipper rasping)
(soft tense music)
Come on up here, boy.
(tense music)
(dramatic music)
(zombie growling)
Oh, sh*t.
(truck door slams)
(zombie growling)
sh*t.
(tense music)
(zombies growling)
sh*t. sh*t.
Indy, it'll be okay.
(zombies growling and snarling)
(Harley shouting)
(Indy barking)
(zombies growling and snarling)
[Father] Alright,
and we're rolling, bud.
Ready?
- Yep.
[Father] Ah, nice try.
Just keep your eye on the ball.
Harley, what's wrong, little fella?
[Harley] I don't want
you to go away again.
(zombies grunting)
[Father] I'll be back
before you know it.
(zombie growling)
Time is a precious thing.
You never know how much you have-
(Indy barking)
(zombies growling)
(Indy barks)
(zombies growling)
Come on, Indy.
(solemn music)
(solemn music continues)
(solemn music continues)
(g*n clicking)
[Drew] Huh.
Looks like we're here.
[Vanessa] Hm, guess so.
Finally.
(gravel crunching)
(gentle music)
(gentle music continues)
So, where is this Jerry character?
- Where's Harley?
- Where's Harley?
He was supposed to be here by now.
Probably dead.
Really?
Okay.
Alright, well, so
what do we even do now?
I mean, I guess we just wait for Jerry.
What is this place?
[Harley] It's the old slaughterhouse.
Dammit, Harley!
(gentle music)
Drew.
Drew, are you okay?
(dramatic music)
(g*n clicking)
Oh!
Drew, what the hell is wrong with you?
Put the g*n down.
Yeah, put it down!
What are you doing?
[Harley] Put it down, man.
It's all your fault.
What are you talking about?
This is all your fault.
- Guys, just stop.
Stop it.
- All of it.
Tell 'em.
- Put the g*n down.
Tell 'em why I'm never good enough.
Go on, tell 'em!
Tell 'em!
(Indy barking)
(Katie screaming)
(Indy barking)
No!
(fist thudding)
(Drew grunting)
Pull yourself together.
We need each other
if we're gonna get through this.
(Drew panting)
(tense music)
[Vanessa] Jerry, you made it!
[Jerry] Vanessa, it's good to see you.
None of, none of those things
followed you here, did they?
I don't believe so, no.
Okay, so what is this place?
Like, why here?
It's close enough
where I could meet you.
This the old Amherst Slaughterhouse.
My dad told me about this
place when I was young.
Yeah, yeah, I, I heard stories
about this like crazy
butcher or some sh*t, right?
Yeah, yeah, same here.
I mean, I didn't know the
place actually existed though.
Back in the '50s, '60s and '70s
this old slaughterhouse
was the main contributor
to Amherst's economy.
So what.
What does this have to do with anything?
Back in the mid-70s,
the place was temporarily shut down.
A group of teenagers broke in after hours.
They thought the place was
shut down for the night
and all the employees were gone.
But they weren't?
They decided it would be a good idea
to break in and trash the place.
Somehow they got in and found
their way to the k*ll room.
(tense music)
(door squeaking)
(tense music continues)
(tense music continues)
(stairs squeaking)
(metal clanging)
(tense music continues)
They searched for anything of value.
(tense music continues)
(tense music continues)
(blood squelches)
[Teen] Oh.
Oh, don't step in that.
There's nothing here, man.
Let's just get outta here.
[Teen] This place creeps me out.
(tense music)
[Jerry] Walked right into a dead end.
(door slams)
They had nowhere to go.
The butcher?
They were terrified.
They all scattered.
(butcher growling)
(knuckles cracking)
(butcher chuckling)
(butcher growling)
Run!
(ominous music)
(ominous music continues)
(ominous music continues)
(ominous music continues)
What happened? Did they get away?
No, no, he caught them
and then he hung them
one by one on meat hooks.
(metal clanging)
- [Teen] Let me go!
(teen grunting)
(teen screams)
(ominous music)
No, no.
(ominous music)
No.
(metal clanging)
Please, no!
Please, no!
(ominous music)
[Jerry] Then, he branded them
each with A44.
[Teen] No!
[Jerry] I guess it was his way
of differentiating the meat.
(tense music)
[Teen] Please, no!
Please, please, no!
(flesh sizzling)
(teen screaming)
Didn't one of them escape?
So they say.
What happened to the butcher?
The boy who survived, told his story
to his parents and the police.
But there was no evidence
besides the branding on
the boy's wrist, of course.
There was no way to
tell where it came from
or who even did it.
Right, DNA evidence
wasn't a thing back then.
So he got away with it.
Not exactly.
(upbeat music)
It was the late '70s.
The town was hellbent on putting
the guy away, regardless.
The sheriff had no choice
but to shut down the slaughterhouse.
They sent him away for a long
time, for fear of a revolt.
I believe they ended up putting him away
primarily based on
circumstantial evidence.
(crowd shouting)
(upbeat music)
(crowd continues shouting)
(upbeat music continues)
(crowd continues shouting)
(upbeat music continues)
The town was pretty convinced
he put those three kids
through the meat grinder.
That's disgusting!
Amherst Slaughter
eventually opened back up.
They were back in business,
minus the butcher.
Wait a minute, this is
what prompted the protest?
AMP76 or Amherst Meat Protest in 1976.
Essentially turned the
whole town vegetarian
for fear of eating those kids.
Lasted about two years
until this place finally shut down.
That's some messed up sh*t.
(scoffs) You're telling me.
My dad was raised vegetarian.
I wonder if this has
anything to do with it.
Wait, so what happened
to the boy that escaped?
Not sure, horrifically scarred for life.
And all this really happened?
He really ground up those kids?
No one knows for sure.
Pretty unlikely, but still a good story.
I heard that really happened.
I hate to interrupt story time here.
Are you all ready to
survive the worst epidemic
in modern history?
What else do you know about it?
I-i-is there a cure or
is it a death sentence?
So far, what we know
about this infection
coincides with what we know about CJD.
Only difference being is this new strain
is infinitely more progressive
and symptoms are grotesquely exaggerated.
I don't know how this
could have gotten out,
but as far as the data shows,
it seems to stem from the same origin.
English, Jerry!
Right, right, right.
CJD being short for
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.
It's pretty much the human
form of mad cow disease.
It's always fatal.
So what I've learned before
I left is that this infection
can spread through
contaminated animal meat,
or, more rapidly, when the infected bite
with enough force to break the skin.
Wait, back up, back up.
You mean to tell me if I ate bad meat,
I'm gonna end up like Nick.
Who's Nick?
He's dead.
He was my friend.
Sorry about your amigo.
What can we do to stop it?
So basically what we know is
consuming any animal products
could potentially carry the infection.
It appears to be animal protein.
Animals themselves are resilient,
but once slaughtered,
those who consume them
are easily infected.
The problem we have now is,
these products are being shipped
to hundreds, if not thousands.
I'm afraid if we don't
get a handle on this fast,
it won't be long before this thing,
it spreads to the whole
nation, if not the world.
So,
don't eat animals,
fools.
But I, I ate a burger at the diner
just a little while ago.
Nick ate there too.
Eggs.
And now he's dead.
How do you feel?
I'm fine.
I can't make any promises.
But my colleague, Dr. Hamilton,
was working on an antidote back in the day
for, let's just say, a similar problem.
They managed to contain the
meat and destroy the infection.
And the public never found out about it.
Hamilton knows a lot more than I do.
Okay, so we need to
talk to Dr. Hamilton?
(dramatic music)
(Jerry screams)
(Katie screaming)
(zombie growling)
[Jerry] Get him off me!
[Katie] Oh, no.
(g*n clicking)
[Jerry] Help!
(g*nshots booming)
(tense music)
No, no, you, you should
probably hang on to that.
Yeah.
[Harley] We should get
going before more show up.
We need that antidote.
I told you, there
might not be an antidote.
Funding was cut a long time ago.
I gotta go.
I can't take you there, but it's not far.
You should probably come with us.
It's a lot safer.
I can't, I have something really
important I need to take care of.
How do we find Dr. Hamilton?
It's about a half a mile away.
Keep following the tracks
and then you'll find a
cornfield and a dirt road.
Follow that.
And then you'll see a barn and a house.
That's where you'll find Dr. Hamilton.
Be safe, guys.
This is too crazy.
We are living in a nightmare.
We should get going.
Who knows how many more we've
attracted with those g*nshots.
Yeah, let's go.
(gravel crunching)
(zombie growling)
Anything?
Hey, hey, wait, wait, wait.
That, that's gotta be it, right?
Hopefully those things
don't want to eat us too.
Yeah, but what if-
It's gonna be fine.
It's all gonna be okay.
Can you not?
I'm just saying what
everyone's thinking.
Okay.
[Announcer] Emergency
services at capacity.
[Announcer] Hospitals-
[Announcer] Everything
they can at this moment.
Please stay inside your house.
(static crackling)
- [Announcer] Fast...
[Announcer] Do not go
outside for any reason.
(Diane screams)
(tires screeching)
(gentle music)
[Vanessa] Well, isn't this welcoming?
- Let's, uh-
- Let's see if someone's home.
[Drew] After you.
(gentle music)
[Katie] Have fun.
Don't die.
(knuckles rapping)
[Harley] Hello?
Anyone home?
Mm-mm. Nothing here.
I can't see anyone.
[Harley] I'm gonna check out back.
[Vanessa] Okay, I'll go with you.
[Harley] You two stay here
in case somebody comes out.
[Drew] I ain't going out back.
(gentle music)
[Announcer] We know very
little right now about it.
[Announcer] Amherst-
(Diane panting)
[Announcer] We will keep you updated.
(radio garbling)
[Announcer] More information.
I repeat.
Unfold.
Emergency broadcast.
(tense music)
Oh my, my God.
Oh, my God. (Crying)
God, I'm sorry.
Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.
(zombie growling)
(tense music)
(tense music)
No, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
This is not happening, no!
(zombie growling)
(car door slams)
(car engine revving)
(tires screeching)
(zombie growling)
Okay, Drew, you do not look good.
You sure you feel okay?
Yeah.
- Yeah?
- Good. I'm good.
Okay.
You know, we could die tonight.
You wanna make out
Sure.
(door creaking)
- Who's that
knocking at my door?
Ah, you must be up here
looking for the best oatmeal in town?
Huh?
Well, the tractor's broken.
We're gonna have to go to the fair.
I'd suppose a pair of
pliers might do the trick.
No?
What the hell are you talking about?
This is my property,
and nobody's gonna sink my battleship.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Don't sh**t, man.
Look, we're not looking for trouble.
We're here to talk to some doctor.
You are?
I-it's a, a Dr. Hamilton.
Yeah. Please don't sh**t.
He's telling the truth.
Who are you with?
What, where's your uniform?
What?
Who sent you?
[Both] Jerry!
Well, why didn't you say so?
Baked potato!
Come on, follow me.
(static crackling)
[Radio Operator] The Main Street Bridge
is now secure, sir.
Blockades at all points
leading in and out of Amherst.
These things,
there seems to be more and
more of them by the hour.
Over.
Did you hear that?
We're stuck here.
Trapped!
[Radio Operator] Remain at your station
until further notice, Private.
Over and out.
Who are you, what, what do you want?
What do you want?
[Vanessa] Whoa, whoa.
Hey, we didn't mean to-
Yeah, yeah, we're
friends of Jerry Murray.
And he told us to come
here, we'd find a doctor,
somebody that could help us.
Jerry.
Is he here?
No, no, but we were just with him.
Yeah, yeah, he said he had
somewhere important to be.
Did he happen to say where?
No.
(static crackling)
You shouldn't sneak
up on people like this.
Especially not now.
What can I do for you?
You're Dr. Hamilton?
I am.
He said you'd have answers
why people are losing control
and attacking everyone in sight.
Yeah, and that you
might have a cure for it.
A cure?
Hardly.
(g*nsh*t booming)
(static crackling)
C'mon, it's not safe here.
Up in the house.
(light music)
(light music continues)
You got a company, Rach.
Yes, Dad, we do.
These are our friends.
So that's Katie, and that's Drew.
This is Dr. Hamilton.
And who's this?
That's Indy.
Looks like he likes you.
[Vanessa] A lot.
Well, it's very nice to meet you all,
though I wish it were under
different circumstances.
Harley! Does she?
So, Jerry told you that I
would have answers, did he?
He said you've been studying the virus
or whatever it is, that it's in the meat.
What are we dealing with here?
Yes, that's true, I would advise
against consuming any meat.
But funding was pulled from that project,
ending all progress.
Not all.
Shh, Dad.
Please.
Okay, well, then what research
is still being done about it?
Do you still have data?
- Yeah.
- What does Grisly Adams know
that we don't?
Tell us more here.
Guys, chill.
We're not gonna get answers like this.
Can I have a word with you,
in private?
No, talk here in front of everybody.
Drew.
Don't hold out on me, man.
[Harley] Drew.
I got you.
It's okay.
It's okay, okay?
Alright.
Here's our situation.
Our acquaintance out there, Drew,
he ate the same meat some of
our friends ate earlier today,
and they're all dead.
And Jerry said you might have a cure,
something that would prevent people
from reaching this horrible fate.
Has Drew shown any signs of sickness?
Not, not like the others.
Um, they changed fast,
but he's not acting himself.
And between us, I'm a little concerned.
Follow me.
Okay.
(door closes)
This is merely a prototype,
but it's all we have right now.
If you're infected,
there's only a small
chance it'll even work.
But it's organic, naturally derived,
virtually no side effects.
Drew, how do you feel?
[Drew] Never better.
- Thank you.
- Are you sure about that?
Except from where I'm standing,
you look very unwell.
Yeah, I'm, I'm fine.
It's very important
that you answer these
questions truthfully, Drew.
I... (sighs)
All right, I don't feel the best
and I don't wanna end up like Nick.
Okay.
Give me your arm and hold still.
[Drew] Hey.
There, now, if you were infected,
we should know in a matter
of time whether it's working.
Now, did anyone else
consume any animal products
in the last 24 hours?
Beef, pork, fish, eggs, dairy.
What?
I ate a salad, remember?
Oh, and I skipped breakfast.
You're sure?
Yes.
Yeah, I mean, I haven't
and neither has Harley.
He's vegan, so.
A vegan?
(Walter chuckling)
What?
This strain seems to bind
onto necrotic animal cells
in the host's digestive tract.
From there, it travels through
the blood brain barrier.
That's why the infection takes hold faster
if you've been bitten,
it's a direct shot to the bloodstream
by way of rare prions
particular to this disease.
We don't completely understand them still.
However,
the pathogen doesn't seem to
pass through plant cell walls
or bind onto them.
And in the rare case, if it does,
if chloroplast is present,
it neutralizes it.
So, a person who never
consumes animal products
theoretically has a better
chance for this treatment
to eradicate infection in the host.
Essentially,
a cure.
According to my calculations,
if they're correct,
there's roughly a 60 to 65%
chance that the treatment,
the antidote, would even be effective.
And that's if given to a host
who has consumed no meat or dairy products
for several months or more.
Okay, great.
So the vegans, good for them.
What about us carnivores, huh?
(Walter laughing)
Omnivores.
Unless of course you eat nothing but meat.
The chance of survival is far, far lower.
That's why our funding was retracted.
Not enough profit.
Exactly.
There simply weren't enough
people who were vegan
to make it worth the almighty dollar.
I was convinced the infection
would eventually resurface.
- Can you help me, please?
- So I decided
to continue research on my own.
How did the infection start?
The simple version is
that a team of scientists
found a way to exacerbate the
hormones given to livestock.
The faster they grew,
the faster they sold.
Bigger cows, more milk?
More eggs, more money.
Exactly.
Adler, the head of my department,
got hold of the technology
and went broke with it.
Without authorization,
he began testing various
genetic mutations on animals.
And in the process of doing so,
they began to show anomalies.
But don't you deal
with infectious diseases?
That's true.
Something he said, it made me suspicious.
What did he say?
He said that he needed more
human volunteers to test on.
More, like he was already doing it?
Right.
So what did you do?
I confronted him.
I told him that if he didn't stop,
I would go to the public
and expose his crimes.
I was terminated the next day.
No, you get your stuff,
you get out of here.
So what exactly did he do to them?
He was testing the new
strain on various animals,
as well as the unsuspecting
human volunteers.
I don't think it was
his intention at first,
but he created the mindless cannibals
that we are seeing now.
The livestock, however,
showed no sign of encephalitis
or any other neurodegenerative
disorder for that matter.
It sat dormant in their muscle
tissue and bodily fluids.
And if consumed by another animal,
humans included, the results were
disastrous.
Spasms,
neuro-necrosis,
loss of one's self-awareness
and, yes, violence.
But not quite at the
level we're seeing now,
but enough to make me believe
we're dealing with a
similar strain of disease,
but
only it's gotten stronger.
So these people that were tested on,
they're brain-dead?
Zombies?
Yes, Drew.
Essentially, zombies.
Huh, I knew it!
Nick was a f*ck' zombie.
Oh, sh*t.
Their brains have completely shut down
except for certain primal instincts.
[Harley] To feed?
Yes.
Wow.
How long have they known?
(chuckling) A while.
Adler said that he shut the program down.
That's when I was let go.
To be honest, I was scared.
If anything happens to me,
there is no one to take care of Dad.
I had no choice to, but to keep quiet.
But I kept my research
going here on the ranch,
just in case my suspicions were right.
Now I'm pretty sure that they were.
So, they didn't actually
terminate the program then?
It doesn't seem that way.
But you know how all this works.
I mean, you have the
treatment, you can stop it.
Again, this is merely a prototype.
It's never been tested on
an actual infected host,
only cells,
till now.
I don't have a facility
to mass produce anything.
And it's, it's very time consuming.
So I have one question.
If they're not letting
you continue your work,
how do they expect to overcome this?
Maybe that's not what
they're trying to do.
What would you do if you were them?
Quarantine.
It's already begun.
Okay, wait, what do you mean?
She means that we're all
trapped here in Amherst
until it obviously stops spreading,
or we all k*ll one another.
Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
All this chit chat's making me hungry.
Let's have some supper.
Is anyone else hungry?
We should eat and rest up.
We don't know what tomorrow will bring.
Dad, you go wash up.
I'll fix some dinner and you
guys can help set the table.
You know, if your
old man's got dementia,
you might want to take
that shotgun from him.
Nearly blew us off the porch.
- Yeah.
- He often carries it around
thinking he's a Civil w*r general.
It's not loaded.

(Walter sniffing)

(Walter crunching)
(light music)
(light music continues)
I have to go back out
there and find my mom.
If you must go, I won't stop you,
but it's far safer to wait until morning.
Our reception here is shoddy.
It's entirely possible your mom
has been trying to call you.
If it's not far, I'll take
you there in the morning.
Okay.
(light music)
(car engine rumbling)
(car engine continues rumbling)
(tires roaring)
Ugh!
You gotta be kidding me!
(light music)
Thank you.
(light music continues)
Oh, thank you.
Of course.
Dad, we're ready.
[Walter] I'm coming, I'm coming.
So, we have seitan
loaf, uh, mashed potatoes,
string beans, uh, beets,
and corn.
Let's eat.
Ah, pass me that meatloaf.
Boy, I love meatloaf.
Anybody else here like meatloaf?
I let him believe
he's still eating meat.
How do you feel?
Much better.
Thanks.
(cutlery clacking)
(light music)
(light music continues)
Oh, my God, this is
actually really great,
'cause this is truly
the first carbs I've had
in like three months.
(car door opens)
(warning signal beeping)
(mud squelching)
(Diane grunting)
Ah, shh hit.
(warning signal beeping)
Unbelievable
(Diane crying)
Hello?
(tense music)
Is somebody there?
Who is out there?
(insects chirping)
(light music)
Well, it's been a long day.
You should probably think
about getting some sleep.
Yeah, that's probably a good idea.
I hope it's safe here,
'cause I am about to pass out.
Alright, well, I'll
show you to your rooms.
Finally...
(light music)
Okay.
(light music)
Goodnight.
[Harley] Goodnight, Walter.
(light music)
Two of you can stay in here.
There's some night
clothes in the top drawer,
extra blankets in the closet.
There's one bed in here.
One of you can stay in here
and the other can have the
sofa bed in the living room.
You don't look so good, Drew,
why don't you take the bed,
and I'll take the couch.
You sure?
Yeah, it's cool.
Hey, Harley.
- Yeah?
- We'll find your mom.
Drew, don't mess with
me, not about my mom.
I'm not, we'll find her.
Actually means a lot coming from you.
I appreciate it.
I may be a dork, man, but I got you.
Can we just talk
about the way that Drew was
looking at me at dinner?
Let's not talk about
the way Drew was looking at you at dinner.
Why not?
It's fine.
- No. Here.
Oh, good God.
[Vanessa] That's definitely your color.
I am not wearing this.
Are you kidding?
God, what century is this from?
Ugh.
[Vanessa] Little House
in the Prairie core.
No way.
No way.
(indistinct) Let's see, let's see.
I mean, honestly, green's your color,
but...
- Okay.
Here.
How do I look?
You look like my grandmother.
And that's pretty
much what I'm thinking.
Okay.
This is not...
This is...
Okay, okay, okay.
It's like a f*ck' parachute.
This is just not it.
Let's talk about me and Drew.
Yeah.
- Anything else?
Any other subject we can talk about
besides you and Drew.
- You are just jealous
because I have a better chance
of getting some in tonight than you do.
(tense music)
(tense music continues)
Oh, again, Nessa, this
is not a love thing.
This is a boredom thing.
This is a fun thing.
This is an end of the world,
I need to get my fix thing.
(linen rustling)
(camcorder clicking)
(camcorder pinging)
You don't want him to see
your, your pilgrim clothes?
- No.
- Girl,
you don't want him to take it off.
No!
(both squealing and chattering)
Nessa and Harley
Nessa and Harley
Nessa and Harley
(both laughing)
I don't wanna talk about it.
Girl, I swear.
Not real?
God, who made these bed,
it's like a g*dd*mn coffin.
[Vanessa] That's really what
it feels like at this point.
Ugh.
God.
I do not wanna die in this house.
(tense music)
(camcorder pinging)
(Harley sighs)
(camcorder pinging)
(Harley sighs)
All right, and we're rolling, bud.
You ready?
- Yep.
Nice try.
Keep your eye on the ball.
Harley, what's wrong, little fella?
I don't want you to go away again.
Come over here.
I'll be back before you know it.
Time is a precious thing.
You never know how much you have
and you never know what's
gonna come your way.
I just want you to do your best
to be ready for the unexpected.
I'll always be with you
in some way or another,
but if I'm not around,
just think back to a memory
of a fun time we had together.
Okay?
I wanna go, I wanna go.
[Father] Okay, go ahead.
(machine whirring)
(Harley gasps)
Take your time.
Let me show you, Harley.
If you take your time
and just be patient,
you can sometimes get what you want.
See that.

There's another way.
(fire alarm beeping)
Follow me.
Take it.
(fire alarm beeping)
(footsteps thudding)
There's a tunnel.
It'll take you to the middle of the field.
It's the only way out.
Take these.
Go before the power goes out.

Come on.
There's only one left.
Use it, use it, let's go.
You'll always be my little boy.
Come on.

I'll see you again.
Come on, come on.

Why? Why would you do that?
I'm talking to you.
Why would you do that?
You know why, Vanessa!
(zombies growling)
I'm not leaving, okay?
I'm not leaving.
You have to go.
Take Indy and take this.
No, no, no.
And get as far away from me as you can.
You have to go.
