01x05 - The Nightmare

[bunniefuu]

It's Late-Night Larry on KPWG,

number 62.2 on the FM dial.

All right, you night owls,

don't fall asleep just yet.

We got another tune

drifting into your mind's eye.

Stay awake.

Stay alert.

Stay alive.

This next batch of songs

is brought to you

commercial-free

by our sponsor, Modafalyst--

when you absolutely

must stay awake--

and you really do need

to stay awake out there.

You never know

what could happen.

Someone could kidnap you,

tie you to a table,

and try to cut your ba*ls off.

Or you could abandon

your friends

with some crazy plan

to save them,

because you think

you're special,

when, in reality,

you're just leaving them to die

I'm talking to you, Davey Boy.

You'd better stay awake,

because if you fall asleep

you're f*cked.

When I look up

from my pillow ♪

I dream you are there

With me

Though you are far away

I know you'll always

be near to me ♪

I go to sleep

Sleep

And imagine

that you're there ♪

With me

I go to sleep, sleep

And imagine

that you're there ♪

With me

I look around me

And feel you are

ever so close ♪

To me

Though tears that flow

From my eyes

Bring back memories of you

To me

I go to sleep

Sleep

And imagine

that you're there ♪

With me

I go to sleep, sleep

And imagine

that you're there ♪

With me

With me

Wha--? Wha--?

Drink water, Dave.

Drink water, Dave.

Water

Drink water.

Water

I'll drink water.

Water

Drink water.

Water

Water, Dave.

Drink water.

Linda!

Matteo! Katie!

Guys?

Please?

Katie?

Water

Drink water

- Drink water.

Matteo!

Linda!

Katie!

Wake me up!

Mom?

Hi, honey!

How are you feeling?

Mom, I'm

I'm really thirsty.

You gotta stay hydrated.

Here you go.

Have a drink.

Davey, you have to drink.

You have to drink, sweetheart.

Get out of here, old man!

Go!

You're not welcome here!

Have we met before?

Where do I go?

Breathe.

Dave, breathe.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You weren't waking up,

so we pumped you

with adrenaline,

that's why your heart

is beating.

Okay? We woke you up

at the two-minute mark.

Uh, water.

Should I get him some?

Yes. Yes.

Linda, what's wrong with him?

I don't know.

Hey, hey.

Slowly. Slowly, dude.

Slowly, dude.

Listen, we have to leave--

we have to leave right now.

What are you talking about?

Aristera.

We have to get to a place

called Aristera.

Brought to you by Modafalyst.

What is Aristera?

Someone told me.

I saw them in my dream.

I used to dream of them

when I was a kid.

I called them

"The Dream People".

And

And you think that these

Dream People are real?

Yeah, I do.

And I think

they're trying to help us.

What do they want?

Uh

Well, it's hard to explain.

Dave, you're gonna have to try.

Okay.

So, people are dying

in their sleep, right?

But, in reality,

people are dying

in their dreams.

What if this isn't some virus?

What if this is

some kind of attack?

An attack?

Like, by what?

By something that can k*ll us

in our dreams.

I don't know.

But when I saw it,

it manifested as, like,

this Elephant Monster.

And it's been trying to k*ll me

my whole life.

Why?

I don't know

I don't know.

But-- But I do know

that if we can get to Aristera,

we can sleep.

I think that they can protect us

from the nightmare.

Okay, so,

correct me if I'm wrong.

You want us to fly a plane

to a remote island

that none of us

have ever heard of,

because you believe

that some mystical dream-cult

is gonna protect us?

Pretty much.

Huh.

Cool.

Yeah.

Matteo, do you think

you could get us there?

Like, you could fly us

there, right?

Whoa

RPA--

remotely-piloted aircraft.

I flew drones,

not commercial flights.

Yeah, but you went

to flight school.

Yeah, years--

years ago.

But I don't just fly

halfway across the world.

On top of that,

none of us have slept

in 60 hours.

That's worse

than being drunk or high.

Okay? If he flies a plane

in that condition, we will die.

Linda

we'll die if we stay.

We're dying right now.

What chance do we have here?

This is our one shot,

and we gotta leave right now.

Dave

You haven't been

well for a while.

Is there any possibility

that you're confused?

No.

I know I need to do this.

- Okay.

- Okay.

- Let's do this.

- Okay.

Jesus Christ.

Linda, open your eyes.

This is not normal.

In a single night,

a nightmare

k*lled the whole world.

I don't think

this is a coincidence.

I mean, I know you've had

these messed-up dreams

your entire life,

but I can't be the one

to fly us there, man.

I really can't.

Matteo, if--

if not you, then who?

What happens when

I crash our asses

into the ocean, man?

You're not gonna crash.

I know you.

You're gonna get us

to that island.

All right.

All right, what the hell?

I mean, what choice do we have?

Right?

Oh, man.

- All right.

- Okay, okay, okay

Come on.

Please.

If this might be

a chance to survive

yeah

let's take it.

Okay.

Okay

Crazy.

Let's pack up

some sh*t and go.

What do we need?

You got everything?

Uh, almost.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

Come on, don't do me like that!

sh*t.

Yes. Yes!

Katie!

Hey!

Hey, you okay?

Yeah. Yeah.

Okay.

Okay, let's go.

Okay, easy.

Easy, okay.

Hey, Dave?

Can I have a word?

Yeah.

I'll be right back.

What's up?

Katie's not looking so good.

I know.

Okay.

Keep her active,

make sure she's drinking water.

Okay.

Watch her.

Okay.

- We all set?

- Yeah, we're good.

All right, let's go.

Okay.

Katie?

You okay?

You good?

You okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Can you look at me?

You gotta stay awake.

Open your eyes.

Katie.

Hey.

Katie?

Hey, she's dozing!

Katie?

She--

Hold on.

When I look up

from my pillow ♪

Check the bag

for a bottle of ammonia.

Okay.

A small, clear bottle.

With me

Though you are far away

I know you'll always

be near to me ♪

I go to sleep

Katie.

Katie, breathe, okay?

And imagine

that you're there ♪

Check the duffel.

With me

- I go to sleep, sleep

What's it look like?

It's a little red kit.

I'm not seeing anything!

Where'd you pack

the emergency drug kit?

The what?

The kit

with the big red cross on it--

where the hell is it?

Katie, come on.

Stay with me.

You never told me to pack it.

sh*t. Keep looking,

it should be in there.

Okay.

Is this it?

Yes.

Okay.

I go to sleep

What do I do?

Uncap the needle.

Matteo!

I'm pulling over!

Press it into

the middle of her upper thigh,

until you hear a click.

It's okay. It's okay.

Breathe. Breathe!

Breathe, breathe.

You okay? You okay?

Okay, good.

Oh, don't do that.

Don't do that.

Oh, my god.

Easy, easy.

Here we go!

She the one?

Yup.

That is our $20-million-dollar

coffin, right there.

All right,

I'm gonna check the hangar,

see if I can find the keys.

Okay.

Hey, don't sit down.

Stay on your feet.

- Yeah.

- Come on.

Why don't you go for a walk?

Stretch your legs.

What the hell's

happening to her?

She's crashing.

It's gonna happen

to all of us.

So give her more meds.

She doesn't need more meds.

She needs sleep.

17 hours.

She can make it, right?

- Dave--

- She can make it.

She will.

Yeah.

Dave, I'm so tired.

Don't worry.

We're gonna get through this.

I don't think I can stay awake

for 17 hours.

- Yes, you can.

- I can't.

Yes, you can.

We're gonna take it

minute by minute.

Yeah.

And I'm gonna be with you

every step of the way.

You trust me, right?

- You trust me?

- Yeah.

Then believe me when I say,

I'm not gonna let you

fall asleep.

Screw it.

I know enough.

You know what I want to do

when we get up there?

Hmm?

I just want to dance.

- Aw!

- Yeah.

You're so bad at dancing.

You hate dancing.

Yeah, I know.

You always hated dancing.

I think

I think I'm starting to like it.

And there's another way

to think about this.

Hmm?

It's a private jet.

You've always wanted

an exotic vacation.

That's not what I meant.

We just need to hold on.

Just a little bit longer.

Okay, listen up,

you g*dd*mn psychos,

this is your captain speaking.

Thank you for joining me aboard

this 655 suicide mission

to Aristera.

We have a full tank of gas,

a very thorough

instruction manual,

and a destination handpicked

by my buddy, Dave.

Okay, take your seats

and buckle up,

'cause we about to put

this bird in the sky.

Hey, Katie,

don't lie down like that, okay?

I know it's tough,

but you've gotta keep

your eyes open.

Katie?

- Katie?

Katie?

Katie-- Katie, look at me.

Katie!

Katie, hey.

Open your eyes.

You've gotta

open your eyes, okay?

You can't go to sleep

right now.

Get the adrenaline.

Come on,

we're gonna make it, okay?

Get the adrenaline!

Katie, come on, baby.

Open your eyes, okay?

Stay with me, okay?

Katie!

I need it now!

Okay, I'm getting it,

I'm getting it.

Come on, Katie, come on.

Katie.

Give her some more.

Just give her some more, okay?

I'm sorry.

Linda, please!

Oh, my god, oh, my god.
