"Open the pack and tip it out on the road, nice and slow." "Can't do that." "Take off the fucking pack... and put it on the ground... or die!" "Are you listening to me?" " I am now." " Good." " Are you listening to me?" " Yeah." "Good." "Put that hand on me again, and you wont get it back." "Can you believe this fucking guy?" "Alright, we will do it the hard way." "Why did you do that?" "Did you cut my hand off?" "What are you standing around for?" "Kiss him!" "What did he say?" "He's in shock." "I think he meant "Kill him"." "I told you you weren't gonna get that back." "Yeah, you did." "Who are you?" "Where's your water?" "They have none, they were gonna take you up, and then eat you." "It's true." "It's in the cart." "You gonna take any?" " Where are you going?" " West." " Can I come with you?" " No." "No!" "Woah, woah, woah..." "Where are you going?" "Stay on the path." "No!" "Stay on the path, it's not your concern." "Stay on the path, it's not your concern." " I don't know you." " I'm not from around here." "No shit." "Who are you?" "I don't want any trouble." "Okay." " Just a customer, okay?" " Okay." "I'm sorry I gotta see the hands." "I'm not one of them." "Okay." "I'm gonna take something out of my pack." "Take your finger off the trigger." "Oh, sweet." "That's a Phantom 900, man." "Is it?" "I haven't seen one of those since the 90's." "Yeah, I got it back east." " Does it still work?" " Yeah, just need a charge, can you do that for me?" "A charge." "I got cables." "I don't need cables, I can charge it for you, if you got the coin." "Yes I do." " It's American." " Oh yeah." "I got a whole bunch of these." "How about Chapstick, got any Chapstick?" "No Chapstick." "I got cat oil." " Fresh cat oil." " No, no." "It's good, it's good for... works the same way." "What about toys, got any toys?" "No, I don't play." "Oh, I got..." "Oh yeah."

"You can wait over there, across the street." " No, I'm good." " Bar is about to open." "I'll wait here." "You dont trust me, do you?" " I'll wait here." " Alright." "Carnie, one of the road crews just pulled into town." "They got something for you." " Books?" " A whole pack of them." "Tell them I wanna see them." "Right now." "We did good." "The one you want." "It ain't there?" "No." "I just dont understand." "That's a shitload of books." "You don't have to understand." "I understand." "Leave that to me and we can be friends." "I have faith in you, you will find it." "Ah, wait!" "I got this too." "Oh, now this is a treat." "It's a schampoo." "Go get slammed." "Get some pussy." "On me as much as you and your boys can stand." "Then go back on the road." "Then we'll get you your book!" "Of that I have no doubt." "You're sending guys out that can't even read to look for one book." "No wonder they never find anything." "unless you'd like to go with them." " What about these?" " Burn them." "The place across the street." "They got any water?" "They have if you can pay for it." "Here." "Smell this." "One of the road crews found it." "Who knows..." "Might be the last schampoo on the planet." "And it's all yours." "Did they find your book?" "No." "Outlander?" "Let me see." " Alright, what will it be?" " Water." "That's the good stuff." "I gotta eat into my own rations to sell, so it don't come cheap." "That will get you maybe half way." "Solara!" "Get this and get it filled." "Wait." "You need this." "Can you please move?" "Thank you." "That was my cat." "Fine specimen." "I saw you knock him off the bar." "No, I kinda shoo'd it, I didnt really knock it." "You raised your hand at him." "Won't happen again, I promise you." "Hey Martz, how about another drink?" "That cat's been coming in here for 2 years." "It's got more right to be here than you." "I don't want any trouble." "That's too bad, cause you..." "I know who you are." "Murderer of innocent travelers on the road." "You are going to be held in account for the things you've done, do you know that?" "It's okay." "I'm gonna grab my things, and walk out of here." " Alright, brother?" " Yeah." "Cursed be the ground, for our sake." "Of thorns and thistles, it shall bring forth, for us." "For out of the ground we were taken for the dust we are." "And to the dust we shall return." "Stop!" "Please." "Redridge!" "Redridge." " And who are you?" " Nobody." "Oh, I doubt that." "The men you killed in my bar." "They were nobody." " But you now..." " He ain't got the shakes." "He ain't one of them." "Good." "This is a civilized town." "We don't eat humans." "We don't see too many people from before." "Not anymore." " Do you read?" " Every day." "How good for you." "Me too." "You know whats funny?" "As old as we are, people like you and me, we're the future." "What do you want with me?" "Straight to the point." "I like that." "You're not just educated." "I never saw anyone handle themselves the way you did" "I dont know where you learned it, but I sure as hell could use it." "It's a little town, just the beginning." "Im about to expand, I need expert help," "I could use someone like you." "Thank you." "But I'm really not interested." "People who work for me live better than any worker dreamed." "Ask Redrige, here." "Ask the boys, anyone." "Real beds, hot food, women." "Clean water." "You could do a lot worse, my friend." "Thank you." "But I got somewhere I need to be." "Where?" "West." "There is nothing west." "I've been told different." "By who?" "Tell you what." "Stay the night." "Try a little of our hospitality, see how you like it." "We'll talk again in the morning." "Word of advice, Walker." "It's not a choice." "There's always a choice." "There'll be someone outside your room all night." " If you need anything." " I dont need anything." "You never know." "This is for you." "It's water for washing and some food, some special dessert too, compliments of the house." "I need you to take this or say something, so I can find you." " Thank you." " You're welcome." "Can I get you anything else?" "No, I'm fine, thank you." "You get blinded in the war?" "I was born this way." "I think probably I'm lucky because I was already used to being like this by the time it happened." "Well, thank you, for the food." "You're welcome." "I like your perfume." "It's just shampoo." "But thank you." "Good night." "I don't think he'll change his mind by the morning." "He's not gonna stay." "He's different than the others." "You're not gonna be able to make him do what you want him to do." "Who said anything about me?" "I'll send Solara." "You can't do that." "It's about time I got better use out of her." "Dont..." "Please." "Please, dont." "Please." "Can I come in?" "Give me a minute." "Somebody already came with food and water." "I got everything I need." "Are you sure about that?" "It's really bright in here." " I'm Solara." " Right" "You filled my canteen downstairs." "Yeah." "You're that Walker, right?" "Right." "If you're worried about paying its on the house." "Paying for what?" "Why don't you take a seat?" "No." "No, I can't go." "If I do he will hurt my mom." " Who?" " Carnegie." " He's your father?" "`" " No" "We belong to him just the same." "I'll sleep on the floor." "Tomorrow you can tell him you had a good time." "I promise, I will be no trouble." "Please." "Knight to b4." "Your move." " So... how old are you?" " Excuse me?" "I havent really seen too many people your age come through here before." "Well, it's been... 30 winters since the flash." "I really dont remember." "Do you remember what it was like?" " In the world before." " Yeah" "What was it like?" "People had more than they needed." "We had no idea what was precious and what wasn't." "We threw away things that people would kill each other for now." " Really?" " Yeah." "You have a book." "Can I see it?" "No, you cannot." "I just want to look at it." "I can't even read, please let me just see it." "What is with you?" "It is just a book." "It's not just a book." "What do you mean it's not just a book?" "No more questions about the book, okay?" "No more questions." "I got a question for you, since you're here." "Maybe I'll answer it, maybe I won't." "Where do you get your water?" "I can't tell you that." "You can't tell me or you dont know?" "Oh, I know." "But if you're not talking about the book," "I'm not talking about the water." "Alright, I got another question for you." "Great." "Yeah, there's a lot of food there." "More than I can eat." "Tell you what." "We can share it, like old people used to." " Okay." " Okay?" "Wait a minute." "Sit." "Sit down." "Give me your hands." "What are you doing?" "Trust me, give me your hands." "Close your eyes." "Dear Lord, we thank you for this meal." "We thank you for a warm bed and roof over our head on cold nights, such as this." " It's gone too long." " Is this from the book?" "Close your eyes." "We thank you for the gift of companionship, in hard times like these." "Amen." "Now we eat?" "Now we eat." "Morning, Solara." "How was your night, did you sleep well?" " I did what you said." " Of course you did, but I said:" "Did it work?" " Is he staying?" " We didn't talk much." "Solara, honey, eat something." "Mom, give me your hand." "Close your eyes." "Mom, trust me." "Dear Lord." "We thank you for our food." "Thank you for my mother." "Thank you for the roof over our heads." "And..." "Well I guess thats all for now." "Amen." "That's the word you're looking for." "Amen." "That's how you stop." "You said you didn't talk much." "But did he do any reading?" " I asked you a question." " Bill, don't." "You shut your mouth." "Stop!" "You're hurting your mother, Solara." "He said he read every day." "Did he?" "Your mother, would like you to talk." "I dont know!" "I dont know." "Yes, okay." "Yes, he was reading." "What kind of book was he reading?" "I don't know, an old leather one." "And?" "I don't know, it had some thing on the front." "Tell me." "I need you to let her go." "Show me!" "Redridge!" "Shit!" "I stayed up all night." "Where is he?" "I dont..." "I just want to make sure there's no acid in there." "Doesn't matter, just take these off." " Take them off." " Let me dry..." " Hey!" " Alright!" "Thank you." "You can tell them I made you do it." " Say it." " You made me do it." "Is that thing loaded?" "I don't think it's loaded." "Only one way to find out." "Look, I need that book." "I mean I want the book." "And you." "If you make me choose," "I'll kill you, I'll take the book." "Why, why do you want it?" "I grew up with it." "I know its power." "And if you read it, then so do you." "That's why they burned them all after the war." "Just staying alive is an act of faith, building this town is an even bigger act of faith." "But they don't understand that." "None of them do." "And I dont have the words to help them, but the book does." "And I admit..." "I've had to do things, many many things," "I hate to ***, I confess that." "But if we had that book," "I wouldn't have to." "Can you imagine how different, how righteous this little world could be if we had the right words for our faith." "The people would truly understand why they're here and what they're doing, they wouldn't need any other uglier motivations." "It's not right to keep that book hidden away, it's meant to be shared with others." "Meant to be spread." "Isn't that what you want?" "Of all my heart and soul." "I always believed that I'd find a place where this book belongs, where it was needed." "Well, I haven't found it yet." "I love this guy." "I love this guy." "Shoot him." "Please." "What are you standing around for?" "Take him out, god damn it!" "I don't like being followed." "I wanna come with you." " Are you dumb?" " I hate it here." "Then change it." "My mother thinks I'll be safer with you." "I'll take you to where we get our water." "You can have all that you can carry." "I mean all that we can carry." "Carnegie knows about two more springs up North." "He says he's gonna build more towns." "How did he know about this one?" "He's been here." "When he was young." "In the world before." "I guess everyone else who knew about it died." "We really better hurry." "I think I left my glasses inside." "can you take a look for me?" "What are you doing?" "You are such a liar." "I'm not a liar." "You said I could come with you, if you got your water." "I didn't say that, you said that." "Besides, the road's no place for you." "Much worse than you think." "Good bye, Solara." "Nice knowing you, I mean that." " Hey." " Yeah?" "Fuck you!" "You washed your filthy fucking hands?" "Twice, Sir." "With your soap." "Put a crew together, we're going after them." " For a fucking book." " It's not a fucking book!" "It's a weapon!" "A weapon that aims right at the hearts and minds of the weak and desperate." "It will give us control of them!" "If we wanna rule more than one fucking town we have to have it." "People will come from all over and do exactly what I tell them if the words are from the book." "It's happened before, and it will happen again." "All we need is that book." "Then I want Solara." "Are you bargaining with me?" "Is this a deal we're making?" "We lost a lot of men." "You need me more than ever." "Now you say that book is worth the trouble." "Well I believe you." "But I want Solara for it." "Why not?" "Why not." "Let's get the fuck out of here." "Which way are we heading?" "West." "Hello?" "Can anyone help me?" "Hello, is anybody there?" "Are you okay?" "Oh, yeah, I'm fine." "You go along, I'll be okay." " Let me just..." " No!" "Really, please!" "I'm fine, really." "I need a man to help me..." "You just go along." "It's okay, it will just take a minute." "I'm fine." "Please..." "Help!" "Get off me!" "Hold them there." " What's wrong?" " Did you hear that?" "Don't move." "Take the wire off of that." "Spool it up." " What is that?" " Dinner." "It's like if he's protected somehow." "Like there's nothing that can touch him." "He's just a fucking man." "You put a bullet in him and he will go down." "Still warm." "No more than a few hours dead." "He can't be far." "Son of a bitch." "Solara." "You sure you still want her?" "It's gonna be dark soon." "We can't track them at night, they'll see us coming." "We'll drive right past them and never know it." "He's right." "They're on foot." "Tired." "They'll have to sleep." "We'll make up the ground tomorrow." "We'll have them before morning, Sam." "That better be a guarantee." "Do you really read the same book every day?" "Without fail." "Will you read some to me?" "Please." "The lord is my shepard." "I shall not want;" "He makes me to lie down in green pastures." "He leads me beside still waters;" "He restores my soul." "He leadeth me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake." "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death," "I will fear no evil;" "for Thou art with me" " That's beautiful." " You like that?" " Did you write that?" " Yes I did." " Really?" " No." "That was around a long time before you and I got here, thats for sure." "What did you mean when you said it's not just any book?" "It's the only one." "Really?" "After the war people made it their business to find and destroy any that the fires didn't get, some people say this was the reason for the war in the first place." "Anyway, it's the only one that survived." "How did you get it?" "They said that the war, tore a hole in the sky." "You probably heard the stories." "Yeah." "Tore a hole in the sky, sun came down, and burned everything." "Everything and everybody." "You were lucky, to hole up and hide in a place like this, or underground." "Most people weren't lucky." "So, a year later we started coming out, wandering around, didn't know what to do, just trying to find a place to survive." "One day, I heard a voice." "It's hard to explain, but it was like if it was coming from inside me." "But I could hear it as clear as I can hear you." "What did the voice say?" "It led me." "To a place where I found the book." "Buried, under some rubble." "The voice told me to carry the book out West." "It told me a path had been laid out for me, that I'd be led to a place where the book would be safe." "Told me that I'd be protected, against anything that stood in my path." "I've been walking ever since." "And you did all that because a voice in your head told you to." "Yes, I did." "I know what I heard." "I know what I hear." "And I know I would have never made it, without help." " What's that?" " One question too many." "Go to bed, we've got an early start in the morning." "What are you doing?" "I'm sorry, I thought you were sleeping." "I wasn't sleeping." "What are you doing?" "I just wanted to see the book." "Nobody touches it but me, you understand?" " Do you understand me?" " Yes, I understand." "since you don't know how to read anyway, it's of no use to you." "Yeah." "So teach me." "Hold on." "Hold up." "Stop!" "You say you've been walking for 30 years." "Have you ever thought maybe you were lost?" "No." "How do you know you're walking in the right direction?" "I walk by faith, not by sight." " What does that mean?" " It means you know something, even if you don't know something." "It doesn't make any sense." "It doesn't have to make sense." "It's faith." "Its a flower of light, in a field of darkness, giving me the strength to carry on, understand?" "Is that from your book?" "No, it's Johnny Cash..." "What?" "Do you think anyone lives there?" "I dont know." "Maybe there's water." "Stay behind me." ""No Trespassers"" "This is weird." "Who are you?" "Travelers, thats all." "Don't mean any harm." "No trespassing." "Didn't you read the sign?" "We're very sorry, I didn't see it." " What's your business?" " We were just..." "No business." "We're very sorry, and if you let us, we'll be on our way." "George, look at them." "One of them is just a girl." "Old story." "Heard it a hundred times before." "We get so few visitors these days," "George is suspicious of everybody." "I'm Martha." "Would you care for some tea?" "How about some music?" "It's so soothing." "George!" "You can ring my bell, ring my bell." "How do you like it?" "You can ring my bell, ring my bell." " Is that good?" " Good, good." "Great." "It's amazing that you two have survived out here all by yourselves." "Well, now." "George is something of a handyman." "He did a lot of work on this place, making it safe." "We may be old, but we're resilliant." "We've had more than a few trying to take this place from us, haven't we George?" "Yes we have." "I wanna show you something, come on." "George, no." "Not now." "Come on!" " Are these...?" " Graves?" "Sure." "It'd be uncivilized not to bury them." "Besides, it's good for the soil." "Come on back inside." "I might be able to rustle up some sandwhiches." "Well, thank you." "Thank you very much." " We gotta go now." " They killed these people." "They didn't just kill them." "They ate them." " Their hands are shaking." " Too much human meat." "Let's go." "I found some meat." "I hope you're hungry." "No." "No, thank you." " Well, we gotta be going." " So soon?" "Yeah, I'm afraid so." "Are you sure you won't stay?" "I'm sure." "Very sure." "Put the gun down." "Sorry." "Take this." "Open the door for us, please." " Thank you for the tea." " Thank you so much." "Go back inside." "George, what's wrong?" "Whole company of armed degenerats, thats what, and they led them straight to us." "I just set out the good china." "Fuck the china." "Have you got any more weapons?" "Weapons?" "I'll show you some weapons." "Come on." "We know you're in there." "Come on out and nobody needs to get hurt." "I'll make it easy." "Send out Solara with the book." "What are we gonna do?" "I know what the fuck I'm doing." "Wait, wait." "They ain't coming out." "Shit!" "Get down!" "Everybody down!" "You know that voice you heard?" "Did he say anything about this?" "We'll get out alive." "Both of us." "What about us?" "Didn't mention you." "Cease fire!" "Cease fire." "Motherfuckers!" "Over on the side!" "Over on the side!" "Fucking bastards!" "Hold your fire!" " What are they doing?" " Nothing good." "Where is the book?" "Check his pack." "It ain't here." "This is your last chance." "You give it up, or" "I swear I'll bury you out here." "Son-of-a..." "Let's try this again." " Carnegie!" " What!" "?" "Now." "Where's the book?" "Give him the book." "Please." "Don't tell him." "It's in the house." "Back of the TV." " Go check the TV." " The what?" "You gotta be fucking shitting me." "You go!" "Go!" "Ask and you shall receive." "God is good, is he not?" "All the time." "Not all the time." "No!" "You see?" "What did I tell you?" "He's just a man." "No!" "Leave him alone!" "Where's your protection now?" "Hmm?" "Pray for me." "Okay?" "I mean it." "Shit." "Go back!" "Come on." "Come on!" "We've got enough fuel to make it back, do you want to go after her?" "No." " Where are you going?" " I'm going West." "Gotta go West." "Hey." " I'm sorry." " For what?" "This." "This is all my fault." " No, it's not." " Yeah it is, if I didn't come with you, none of this would have happened." "It's not your fault." "Did what I had to do." "Didn't think anything could make you give up that book." "You know, for years I've been carrying and reading it every day." "I got so caught up with keeping it safe" "I forgot to live by what I learned from it." "Yeah?" "What's that?" "Just to..." "Do for others more than you do for yourself." "It's what I got from it anyway." "Do you smell that?" " What?" " In the air." "Salt." "We're getting close to the ocean." "That is good." "That's it." "Get the Engineer!" "That's far enough!" "What's your business here?" "My name is Eli." "I have a King James Bible in my possession." "Remain where you are." "Don't attempt to make any sudden moves, or you will be fired upon." "Be careful with it." "Thank you." "Careful with it." "Wait." "We've been doing this for a long time now." " Feels like a museum." " It's much more than that." "This is where we're going to start again." "We've got a printing press that will be operational quite soon." "We're going to teach people about the world they lost." "Help them start to rebuild it." "Look." "Shakespear." "Britannica." "Missing only a few volumes." "There's a whole series of beautiful Mozart and Wagner records." "Still in very pristine condition." "But never a Bible." "Well, not until now." "May I ask what condition it's in?" "It's beat up." "But it will do the job." "Do you think I could see it?" "Yes, you may." " That's it." "It's open." " Good." "Do you have anything to write on?" "Could you get us some writing paper, please?" "A lot of it." "A whole lot of it." "It can't be." "It's impossible!" "It can't be!" "Pay close attention." "And write down everything I say." "Exactly as I say it." "The first book of Moses." "Called Genesis." "Chapter one, verse one:" ""In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."" "Verse two:" ""And the earth was without form and void;" "and darkness was upon the face of the deep." "And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters."" "Verse three:" ""And God said, Let there be light:" "and there was light."" "Where is Solara?" "Out there." "Her choice." "I tried to bring her back." "She refused." "What did you do when she refused?" "Read it." "What did you do to my daughter?" "Read it!" "What did you do to my daughter!" "?" "Sorry." "It's been so long I dont remember." " You have to." " I have to?" "Really?" "You have to." "Please." " Your leg." " It doesn't hurt anymore." "I can smell it." "You worked so hard for that book." "You sacrificed so much, so many men." "More than you could spare." "Now, all those people who were too scared to even say your name." "They're downstairs, tearing up the bar right now, did you know that?" "And there's noone there to stop them." "And you are feverish." "I can't imagine what it must feel like to have what you want so close and it might aswell be a million miles away." "Stop it!" "Are you leaving me?" "Claudia?" "Claudia!" "?" "Claudia!" "Dear Lord." "Thank you for giving me the strength and the conviction to complete the task you entrusted to me." "Thank you for guiding me straight and true, through the many obstacles on my path." "And for keeping me resolute when all around seemed lost." "Thank you for your protection and for your many signs along the way." "Thank you for any good that I may have done," "I'm so sorry about the bad." "You don't have to leave, you know." "You're very welcome to stay here." "You'll be perfectly safe." "Thank you." "But this is something that I have to do." "Where will you go?" "Home." "Thank you for the friend I made." "Please watch over her, as you watched over me." "Thank you for finally allowing me to rest." "I'm so very tired." "But I go now to my rest at peace." "Knowing that I've done right with my time on this earth." "HOLY BIBLE NEW KING JAMES VERSION" "I fought the good fight." "I finished the race." "I kept the faith."
