" Should we pack everything?" "I mean, how long are we gonna be?" " I don't really know how fucking long but just pack everything up and do it as quickly as possible, okay?" " Jason?" " Just pack everything, right now." " Okay." " It's gonna be okay." " Okay, okay." " Berries." "Red berries." "Okay." "Okay." "Okay." " The department of health has been notified by the federal emergency management agency that a viral infection has severely infected the population." "Symptoms of the virus include a small circular red rash on the abdomen or chest and is followed by nausea, delirium and aggressive outbursts or unpredictable behavior." "If you or anyone you know are exhibiting these symptoms, immediately contact emergency medical services." "Officials have been advised that at this time the viral infection poses an immediate danger to the public." "As a precaution, resident should stay indoors, keep all windows, doors and vents closed." "Turn off all air conditioners, ration your..." " Stop, stop the car." "Jason stop the car." "Christ, Jason, stop the fucking car." "They have a child." " So do we!" "Okay?" "So do we." " Hi there, how are you?" "Looks like it's going to be a beautiful day." "Do you want to play?" "I miss you, hope to see you soon." " One, two, three, four." "One, two, three, four." "One, two, three." "Fuck, fuck!" "Fuck." " The most important thing here is the saw-tooth leaf." "Turns red during the spring time." "See that?" "Okay." "How to make a deadfall trap, you need a support stick, a weight stick, a bait stick." "Okay?" "And you set them up, notches matching, balance the..." "Ann, are you listening?" "This is important." " Yes, I can't write as fast as you can fucking talk." "Okay." " Don't curse in front of her." " Fine." " Red berries." "Red leaves." "It's a bad thing." "Especially during the spring." "You're jerking the trigger." " And I hit it!" " That's 'cause it's not moving." "It's a rabbit gun, you need to hit head or heart to kill so I need you to control your breathing and lightly..." " squeeze, not pull, I know." "We should save our bullets." " Well, they're of no use if you don't know how to shoot." " How many do we have?" " Enough." "Do it again." " We can't survive on a handful of berries." " I know." " Hi there, how are you?" "Looks like it's going to be a beautiful day." " Okay." " Hi there, how are you?" "Hi there, how are you?" "Hi there, how are you?" "Hi there, how are you?" "Hi there, how are you?" "Hi there, how are you?" "Hi there, how are you?" "Hi there, how are you?" "Hi there, how are you?" "Hi there, how are you?" " Damn it!" "Fuck!" "Jason, what happened?" " No, don't touch me!" "Just get everything in the car." " What happened?" " Just get in the fucking car!" "Her fever break?" " No." "Jason, what happened?" " There were a few boxes of food." " But they were there." " Yeah." "They were there." " But you've avoided them before." "Why did they attack this time?" "I don't know." "I don't." "There was enough food to eat there, there was enough bodies." "I thought they would've moved on." "Everything was fine until I cut myself breaking into that house." "The blood started flowing and screams grew and they swarmed." "It was like they knew." "They knew I was bleeding." "They could sense it." " What are they?" " I don't know." "But some part of them is human." " Why is that?" " Because they can die." " Come on, come on." "Come on." "Come on." "Please." "Please, please." "Chris." " Is he infected?" " No." " Show me." " Your name?" " Olivia." "You'll help him?" "I can do that." " Press here." "He'll be okay." "Grab an arm." "You coming from the south?" "You and your father..." " stepdad." "Well, sort of." "Chris and my mom were, you know, together, but they never married." "They planned it for September, but..." " You can sleep in the car if you want." " No, it's fine." "I want to sleep near him." "We'll leave, when he's better, I mean." "We'll leave you alone." "Why do you have two campsites?" " In case I lose one or the other." " Oh." " Helps cover your scent, throws them off." "You headed north?" " Yeah." " You wanna hear it?" " That's what's up north?" " Mm-hmm." " Do you know what they're saying?" " No." " So that's it." " That's all there is." " Chris?" " It's alright, Liv." "It's okay." " She says you're heading north." " Yeah, trying to at least." "We hear it's in check up there." "Who the fuck knows, right?" "You have a pretty nice setup here." "Most people would kill for this stuff." "You gotta tent." "Food, from what I can tell." "Car." "You gotta full tank?" " No." "Just a place to hide from the rain." " Ugh." "Thank you." "For what you did, for both of us." "Not a lot of people would do that nowadays." "We'll be gone in the morning." " Okay." " Get up, kiddo, let's go." "Let's get in the tent." " Come on, get in!" " So, how long you been out here?" " Since it started." " Hmm." "Why you all the way out here in the middle of nowhere?" " My husband grew up in these woods." "He lived in a town a mile or two west." "He brought us out here." "It's where he felt safest." " Is that who taught you how to be woods woman-y?" " He taught me what he could." " What?" " Come on, Liv." "We kept hearing things, you know." "How Philly went down in a day but some backwater, berg like bethel didn't get hit for a month." "So Suzanne, Liv's mom, she said, "let's wait."" "Let's just fucking wait." "She even thought that the red cross was handing out the cure in bottles over in trout run." "Turns out they were just handing out hot chocolate and cheese sandwiches." "And then Suzy got some sores on her belly, they just looked like little circles." "You know?" "Little flea bites." "And then they started getting worse." "Started bleeding and giving off some sort of white puss." "Two days later, she, she attacked Liv." "She tried to rip her apart with her bare hands." "So that's when I tied her to the bed." "And all she did was scream." "We left her there for a few days." "Just listening to her scream." " You just left her?" "Tied to the bed?" " In a way, yeah." "I took a kitchen knife and, shoved it in her ear." "And I kept on pushing and pushing." "Until the screams stopped." "I like to think that she forgave me, though." "That she heard me say I'm sorry and believed it." " Oh, my god, oh my god, no!" " Come on, you're going in!" "Here we go!" "Bath time." "What, I didn't even throw you in." " Oh my god." " These waters aren't even that cold." " Oh man." " See, it's nice." " It looks awful." " I don't trust you behind me, get out of here." " Well, I can push you." "God, are there even any fish here?" " Law of the lake, Liv." "Where there are fishermen, there are no fish." " Yeah, but we're on a river." " Rules still apply." "I went on this fishing trip once with Matt theil." "You remember Matt, Liv?" "Guy was built like a fucking tank." "He could open bottles of beer with his teeth." "Use to play call of duty 24/7." "Anyway, Matt rented a boat one time, well, it wasn't really a boat, it was more of a skiff." "Tiny one at that, couldn't even fit a case of fucking natty light in it." " Stop." " What?" " Just stop." " Okay." "Hey, why did you stop me earlier at the river?" " You know sometimes you, it feels like you forget what's out there." "I don't know, one minute you're telling me about how you killed your wife." "And the next, it's just like, we're on a weekend camping trip." "We'll all return to normalcy on Monday." "You know those rings your wife had?" "We saw them before anyone knew what was going on." "We get patients in the er oozing puss and blood." "The rings just devouring the skin around it." "Feeding on it like it knew what it was gonna become." "The only thing keeping them down there is the fact that they haven't eaten all the bodies yet." "You know, all those people like your wife, just left and tied to the bed." "I can't." "I can't just choose to forget that." " I didn't forget." "I just choose what to remember and when to remember it." "Get some sleep, alright?" " They took two houses before I found the last amount." " Hailey needs something to bring her fever down." "And we need food." "You can't just quit." "You brought us out here for a reason, Jason." "This was your call." "And we survived." "We've gotten by." " Getting by isn't life." " Getting by is all we have left." "You need to go." " Yeah." "Will this mud work?" " I don't know." "Should mask the scent." " Right." " Gosh." "I'm sorry." " Hey, hey." "We're not just getting by." "We have more left than you think." " Okay." " You seen her?" " Nah-uh." "When are we leaving?" " Soon." " You always say we have to keep moving." "Those who stay, die." " We'll keep going, just not yet." " So what, we're staying because of her?" " No, we're staying because she has access to food and water." "We should be thankful, Liv." " Why does it matter if we're leaving anyway?" " Well, it does matter." "She deserves it." "Lord knows what she's been through." " Yeah but we've been through..." " we'll, we've all been through shit, Liv." "But at least you and I had each other." "She didn't have anybody." "Shit." " Here." " I'm fine, I'm fine." " Let me see." " No, it's fine." " Let me see." "Why do you still wear it?" " Habit, I guess." " I use to love that show." " My daughter loved the colorful ones." "What happened to them?" "Your family, I mean." " Same thing that happened to everyone elses." " You're rationing." " Yeah." "Can't always find food on the road." " You're leaving, then." " Yeah, soon." " You can take more if..." " nah, nah, please." "The more food we take, the more you have to go down there and get some." "Hey, why don't you come with us?" "Why not?" " How do you know if what's out there is any better than what's here?" " I guess we don't really." "But, I mean, this place can only be paradise for so long." " It's not a paradise." "You've got Liv so you need to find a place to survive." "For you, it's north." "For me, it's here." " Hey, what would you give me if I hit that tree right there?" "What are you, like five?" " I am 12, thank you very much." "Seriously, what are you gonna give me?" "That tree right there." " Um." "I'll cook you dinner." " Dinner, really?" "You cook us dinner every night." "Plus that tree's 50 yards away." " 50 yards?" " Uh 30, tops." " Alright, fine." "Still, what are you gonna give me?" " Fine." "We won't ration." " My god, you have to." "You have to!" " So from here, is this okay?" " Yeah and you have to make precisely that, you see that little hole at the bottom there?" " The one right in the middle." " Yeah." "That." " Alright." "What are you gonna give me?" " The dinner thing." " You can't have that thing, that's Ann's thing." " Yeah but we get to eat more than four fucking crackers." " Alright, fine then, but what are you gonna give me?" "Come on." " We can swim." " Really?" " Yeah." " You hate swimming." " You hate swimming?" " Just in lakes." "I don't like not seeing the bottom." " Alright." "This right here, it's for all the marbles." " Okay, come one." " Big ol' dinner and swim time." "Alright?" "Here we go." "Oh wait, no, no, I slipped." " Oh, nope, nope." "That was a false start." "Give me one more shot, I get a second shot." "Come on, now." " Oh my god, something just touched my foot." "Did it again." " What?" " Nothing." " It's not nothing." " It's nothing." "Yeah, it's nothing." "Oops, sorry." "See you later." "Mmm." "Never thought I'd miss this shit." "Oh, you want me to make you one?" "I'm really good." "Let me try." "There we go." "Little beet." "Little olive." "There you go." "It's good, right?" "Need more cheese, though?" "Here." "Come on." "Want some cheese, Liv?" " She looks like mom." "I mean, not the hair but." "She's good at this stuff, you know?" "I mean, if it was me, I would just be like, ah!" "Is that why you want her to come with us?" "I mean, 'cause she's good at this kind of thing?" " Now, where would we be if she didn't find us that day?" "I'd be dead and you'd be alone." "Nobody deserves that." "Not you, not her." "I want her to come because of you." "Because she takes good care of us." "Because I wanna take care of her, too." " Can I try that on?" " Sure." " How did he ask you?" " Well." "I found out I was pregnant on a Friday." "It was late and I told him." "And he just looked at me and he left." "At midnight, he came back, smelling like liquor and he just sat down at the edge of the bed and showed me a ring." "He didn't asked me, but I said yes." "And then we went to bed." "I think it came from a pawnshop." "Part of me didn't care." "Somehow I knew that was the only way it would happen." " Chris took my mom to Maui." "He asked her on the beach during a sunset." "She said it was the best day of her life." "It's nice." " It is." "Sorta weird to think it was someone else's before it was yours." " Yes." "Okay." "I'll be back." "Mama loves you, okay?" "Alright, you know that?" "You know how much I love you?" "Bye, baby girl." "Bye, sweetness." "Okay." "Shh, mama's here." "I'm so sorry I left you." "I'm so sorry." "I'm so sorry." " Y'know, I don't know anything about you other than the fact that you'restubborn." " I'm not stubborn." " Aha!" "Only stubborn people instantly deny being stubborn." " It's called entrapment." " Maybe." "But now we know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you, Ann, whatever the hell your last name is, is stubborn." " You're good at that." " What exactly?" " Making me forget why I'm here." "Goodnight, Chris." " Goodnight." "Come with us." " We've talked about this." " Things can change." "Annabelle rose Marshall." "Organ donor." "Good for you." " Stay." "Stay right here." "Stay." " No." "We can't." "Those that stay put, die here." " Well, I'm alive." " Yeah, but look what happened to your family." "Ann, I didn't mean it." "Ann, I'm so sorry, I didn't..." " she must've taken some." "I mean, there was at least a box of crackers..." " Oh fuck!" "Olivia!" " Chris!" "Chris, wait!" " Olivia!" " Liv, where are you?" "Olivia!" " Did you get any in your mouth?" "Liv?" " No." " You?" " No, I don't think so." " You would've tasted it." " That thing that came up here." " They didn't." "Food must be scarce." " You still wanna stay." "We're leaving in the morning." " How are you, pretty girl?" "What do you see?" "What do you see?" "Yes, you like being with your mama?" "Yes, yes, here we go." "Oh, Hailey." "Come here, my love." "Here we go, here we go." "I'm so sorry." "I'm so sorry." "Chris." "Chris, stop." " Why won't you come with us?" " Because," "I'm, I'm not ready." " You're gonna fucking die here!" " Well, maybe I deserve to fucking die here." " Oh, so that's what this is." "This is some sorta punishment." "Fucking atone for whatever it is you did and move on, already." " This isn't a world where you can just forgive and move on." "We use to be able to fuck up and then say you're sorry and feel better until the next time you fuck up." "With my daughter, there was no next time." "So who can I apologize to?" "Huh, Chris?" "There's no one here." " Yeah well, my wife, she isn't here either." "I fucking killed her in front of her daughter." "And it doesn't matter if she was one of them or not," "I confronted it." "And I don't blame me, I don't blame her, I blame them." "The only world that won't right itself, Ann, is your own." "And the reason for that is because of you." "Not because of what happened here or what's north, you." "Look, your family, they aren't here anymore, but you are." "So please, just tell yourself you're sorry, accept it and move the fuck on, already." " We're gonna need more food." "And I won't be able to get it by myself." " You just tell me what to do." " I'm coming, too." " Liv, no your not." " I'm coming!" "I'm just the same as Ann or anyone else, I can help." "Three carrying food is better than two." " Fine." " Chris will distract them." "All you and I will do is fill our packs with everything you can." "Just food, nothing else." "And then we run." "First sign of them, you run, don't worry about me." "Okay, Liv?" "Liv, you okay?" " Yeah, I'm fine." " Okay." "Hey." "Look, we're all gonna be fine." "Chris, Chris is gonna be fine." " I know." "I know he's gonna be fine." "That's us." "Let's go." "Grab any food you can find." "Liv, we gotta be quick!" "Just grab any food you can." "Olivia, what the hell?" "We gotta go." "What are you..." "We have to, we have to..." "We have to..." " Thought it would bleed more." " No!" "Don't!" " Liv!" "What's wrong?" " They're after me," " where's Ann?" "No, they're not." "I lost them." "Where's Ann?" " She..." " where's Ann?" " She's..." " Oh fuck!" "Get in the car." " Chris, I..." " Get in the fucking car!" " Olivia!" " Okay."
