"...look in your eye" "And I got that red lip classic thing that you like" "And when we go crashing down, we come back every time" "'Cause we never go out of style" "We never go out of style" "You got that long hair, slicked back, white T-shirt" "And I got that good girl faith and a tight little skirt..." "Help!" "So..." "I understand that you all were part of the fifty-eighth rescue squadron staged over at Bagram in Afghanistan for combat search and rescue." " Yes, ma'am." "Two tours." " And you're still flying together?" "Yeah, we all got pretty tight over there." "Wouldn't break up the family." " Dude, do we look like family?" " A little." "So, what's the biggest difference between rescuing over there and what you do here?" "Not getting shot at." " You're a funny guy." " Yeah." "Exactly." "Chief Gaines?" "I'm told that between Afghanistan and LAFD, you have over six hundred documented rescues." "That's... pretty impressive." "Just doin' my job, ma'am." "Go where they tell me to go." "That's great." "You can cut there." "There she is." "Looks pretty tight." "Take her up." "Metro, this is LAFD." "Helo five on scene of cliff-V rescue." "We have visual." " Copy, Helo five." " What's the girl's name?" "Natalie." "Metro, connect her cell to our sat phone." "Helo five, you're connected." "Hello?" "Natalie, this is chief pilot Raymond Gaines of the Los Angeles fire department." "I'm piloting the chopper above you." "You holdin' up all right?" "I don't know." "I'm not feeling very well." "Oh, my God!" "The car is sliding." "Natalie, I'm gonna need you to stay calm, honey." " We're coming to get you, okay?" " Okay." "Man, I don't see a way in." "We're gonna tip the hat." " Tip the hat?" " Yeah." "You might wanna hold on to somethin'." "Here we go." "Fifteen feet out." "Ten feet." "Five." "Easy, Ray." "All right." "You got it." "All right." "Tuck 'em in, boys." "Joby, forget the basket." "We gotta do a double tie-in on this one." "That car goes, so does she." "Door's open." "Get this." "Hookin' up." "On the skid." "We got five minutes max." " What happens in five minutes?" " It's no big deal." "Just engine failure." "Good thing I only need three." " Oh, thank God." " No, no!" "Natalie, do not..." " Oh, my God!" "Get me out of here." " Natalie, I need you to stay perfectly still." " I have to stabilize the car, okay?" " Hurry, please." "Car secured." "Got it." "What the hell?" "Shit." "Dylan!" "Oh, my God." "Are you all right?" "Jesus." "Joby's pinned!" "Goddamn it." "Joby, I'm comin' down." "Harrison, you're flyin'." "Marcus, rig me a rope." "Handin' over." "Takin' over." " Be ready to cut." " Roger that." "Hooked up." "Out the door." "Ray's clear." "Natalie, don't you worry." "I'm gonna get you out..." "This thing isn't gonna hold!" "Ray, we are in the red!" "We are going to crash!" "Natalie, we are going now!" "I got you." " Cut it!" " Joby, swing!" "Yeah!" " What do we say we get you home now." " I think that's a really good idea." "Now the Sendai quake in Japan was considered to be one of the five strongest since 1900." "It was so powerful, in fact, that it moved the main island of Japan eight feet." "This is just one of the 1.3 million earthquakes that occur around the globe each year." "The largest ever recorded here in North America:" "Anchorage, Alaska, 1964." "A 9.1." "The earth shook for five straight minutes." "The energy release was the equivalent of ten million atom bombs the size of the one dropped on Hiroshima." "And that's not the biggest earthquake ever recorded." "No, the biggest was four years earlier off the coast of Valdivia in Southern Chile." "A 9.5 on the Richter scale." "Right there." "Bam." "This quake lasted eleven minutes and spawned a Tsunami eighty-two feet high that leveled Hilo, Hawaii, eight thousand miles away." "Eight thousand miles away." "So... it's... it's mass destruction like this that shows just how important the research that we're doing here is, because we need to be able to predict these things." "Right?" "To plan and prepare for them." "Yes, ma'am." "Professor, do you think something that intense could happen here?" "Well, the San Andreas fault runs right up the spine of California." "It's the demarcation line between two tectonic plates that are constantly moving." "Well, and add to that the fact that it's supposed to happen every one hundred and fifty years and we're about a hundred years overdue." "I'd say it's not a matter of if." "It's a matter of when." "Damn, Godzilla." "What the hell did you do to her this time?" "Played a little tug of war with a car." "How soon before you get her fixed?" "I'll call Martinez today." "Get a new one sent over to maintenance." "Elgin, you move any faster, you're gonna break that hip." "Harrison said you're taking off with Blake for a few days." "Yeah." "Leavin' tomorrow." "Driving her back up to school." "Volleyball team has their first game this weekend, so I figured we'd cruise up the coast." "Do a little camping'." "Dude, I can't believe she's in college already." "I know." " Too fast, brother." "I'll catch you inside." " All right, man." " Lawrence, I gotta show you something." " Yeah?" "Now, we got a rare low-level seismic swarm out in Falco, Nevada." "Twenty-three small quakes, all tiny." "2.0 to 2.6 in the last twenty-four hours." "Where the hell is Falco, Nevada?" "Thirty-five miles southeast of Vegas, maybe five miles from the Hoover Dam." "Right." " There aren't any faults out there." " Any known faults." "Now, if we get there while the mini quakes continue, we can test our theory." "And if the magnetic pulse rate goes up before the quakes..." " Then we're predicting them." " Then we are predicting them." "All right." "Let's go check it out." " Hi, Dad." " Hey, sweetie." "I was wondering if there was room for my bike." "I thought that I could ride it to class and then I wouldn't have to buy a parking pass." "That's a great idea." "I'm sure I could figure out a way to fit it in." "All right, great." "I can't find the key to the lock at Mom's, so it's either in the top left drawer of my dresser or on top of the wardrobe in my pink shoe box." "Okay, no problem." "I'll find it." "Don't know if you have plans tonight, but I would love to take you to dinner." "You could even invite your mom along." "Could be fun." "Thanks, Dad." "But we already have plans with Daniel." "Dad?" " Are you okay?" " Yeah, of course I am." "Totally cool." "No problem at all." " Okay." "I'll see you tomorrow, then." " Okay." " Oh, and don't forget the bike key." " I won't." "I got it." " Bye, Dad." "I love you." " Okay." "I love you, too, honey." "Bye." "Lawrence, it's incredible." "This is the third mini quake since we've been here." "And the magnetic pulse rate has increased before each one of them." " We got a pattern, my friend." " That was a 2.0." "Our model's predictive." " We got it right, man!" "Finally!" " Yep, we sure did." "Oh, shit." "What's wrong?" "Pulse rates are spiking' again." "They're huge." "Are you serious?" " Kim?" " We're about to have a major quake." "It jumped to a 7.1!" "Jesus, Kim!" "Get the hell out of there!" "Everybody get off the dam!" "Move!" "Now!" "Now!" "Everybody off!" "Hurry up!" "Stay behind the barriers!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Stay behind the barriers!" "Kim!" "Hurry!" "Come here." "I got ya." "Oh, my God!" "Please!" "Oh, my God!" "Kim!" "Hurry up!" "Lawrence!" " Kim!" " No!" "No!" "Close your eyes." "God!" "Are you okay?" "The Southern part of Nevada was rocked today by what seismologists are calling the most destructive earthquake ever reported in that area." "Officials are saying that Hoover Dam is a total loss." "Lake Havasu City, Needles, Blythe and Laughlin also suffered major damage." "Additional support from Los Angeles including LAFD air rescue is expected to begin arriving in the next 24 hours." " Hi, Dad." " Hey, honey." " We just saw the news." " I know." "I'm so sorry." "We're headin' out tomorrow." " No, I get it." "This one's really bad, Dad." " Yeah, this one's tough." "Earthquakes can rise and fall in intensity during their duration depending..." " Hey, Em." " Hey." " Good to see you." " You, too." " Daniel." " Ray." "Good to finally meet you." "It's good to meet you, too." "Heck of a place you got here." " Thank you." " Welcome." "So..." "Dad is heading to Nevada tomorrow." "It's terrible what happened." "Please be safe over there, okay?" "Yeah, we will." "And I promise I'm gonna make it up to you, honey." "Dad, it's really no problem." "The drive is not that bad." "Wait." "Why don't I take you up there?" "I'm flying up to San Francisco for a meeting." "We can head up to Seattle right after." "It'll give me an opportunity to catch a volleyball game." " That's a good idea." " And it'll give your mom a chance to get all her stuff moved in without me in the way." "Right." "You guys moving' in?" "Yeah." "I was meaning to tell you, but we haven't had a chance to..." " Congratulations." " Thank you." "Thanks." "That's great." " Call me when you get there." " I will." "I love you, Dad." " You be careful, please." " I will, I will." "I love you, too." "I'll get her bike." "I'm sorry you guys can't go up there together." "Yep." "Me, too." "Ray?" "Ray?" "I was gonna tell you." "We just decided to do it." "Don't worry about it." " Hey, if you want..." " I'll get those papers signed for you, too." "It was a Sunday afternoon." "Obviously, people weren't at work." "They weren't asleep." "Even so, we know the devastation was fairly..." " This is bad." " Yeah." "What time we headin' out?" "Fourteen-thirty." "Guys are prepping' the gear now." " All right." "Let's get to work." " ...sophisticated rescue operation underway." "So this Daniel guy's taking Blake now?" "I woulda just called in sick." "It's why I'm the boss and you're not." "Pretty sure we can manage a few days without ya." "Shoe's untied." "Are you kidding me?" "Blake." "I want you to know that I respect what you and your dad have." "And I know that your mom moving in has to feel like a pretty big step." "But I'm never gonna try to change what you have with him or take his place." "Okay?" "Yeah." "Okay, cool." "Hey, how come you never had kids?" "Oh, I did." "This is one of them right here." "She's a pretty nice addition to the San Francisco skyline, don't you think?" """ "The gate"." " Catchy, right?" "Yeah, I like it." "Mom was telling me about this." "She said it's the tallest building in the city, right?" "When it's finished, it'll be the tallest, strongest and it's already 80% sold." "But, honestly..." "I guess I never had any kids 'cause I was always so busy raising these." "Mom texted." "She's having lunch with your sister today." "Yeah, she's only in town for a few days and really wanted to meet her." "I'm a little nervous though." "Susan can be kind of overprotective." "Thank you." " Jonathan." " Good morning, Mr. Riddick." " Morning." "You gonna be okay, Blake?" " Yeah, I'll be fine." " Hi." " Hello." "I'm sorry, Lawrence." "Can I get you anything?" "No." "I'm fine, Alexi." "Thank you." " Are you sure you want to be here?" " I can use the distraction, actually." "Yeah?" "There's a reporter outside." "Says she's doing a segment on what happened in Nevada." "I'm gonna tell her that it's not a good time." "No, wait a minute." "Kim gave his life for this." "People need to know that we can predict these things now." "You want a copy?" "I got about a thousand in storage." "No one listens to us until the ground shakes, I guess." "You know, they told me what happened to your colleague." "We don't have to do this now." " Yeah, we do." " We're good to go." " Okay." " Okay." "Rolling." "First question." "How come no one saw what happened in Nevada coming?" "Because we didn't know there were any fault lines out there." "Why not?" "Contrary to popular belief, scientists don't know everything." "I understand that you publicly stated that... someday, scientists will be able to predict earthquakes." "Actually as of yesterday, we now believe that we can predict them." "Professor!" " Talk to you a sec?" " Yeah." "I'm sorry." "Excuse me." "What is it?" "Current pulse rates at our monitoring stations." "All along the San Andreas fault." "Their averages are spiking from 82 to 85, with the biggest jumps coming from San Francisco." "More than twenty points higher than what we saw in Nevada." " No, no, no." "There's no way." " We checked." "We double-checked." "Then we reset all the instruments and triple-checked." "Those are the counts." "Wait a minute." "Wait a minute." "Wait a minute..." "Okay." "If..." "If we draw a line from the bottom of the San Andreas up to the Hoover Dam, it almost literally follows the Colorado River," "which is a natural deformation event." "And geologically... deformation events mark boundaries." "They mark boundaries." "So, what if?" "..." "What if this... whole chunk of land is connected to our tectonic plate?" "That would tell us that what happened yesterday in Nevada was not an anomaly." "No, what if it was a precursor movement along the leading edge of the plate boundary fault from Los Angeles all the way up to San Francisco?" "Are you saying you think the whole San Andreas fault might go off?" "Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying." "Who should we call?" "Everybody." " Oh, bloody hell." " Oh!" "I have something." "Here." " I'm a complete idiot." " No." " Thank you very much." "It's very kind." " Yeah, no problem." " I'm Blake, by the way." " Oh, yeah." "I'm Blake." "I'm not Blake!" "I'm Ben." "Ben Taylor is my name." " Pleased to meet you." " It's nice to meet you." "So was that your father you came in with?" "Daniel Riddick?" "He's my mom's boyfriend." " Are you meeting with him?" " Oh, no." "I... not even close." "I wish." "I'm interviewing for a job here and Mr. Riddick is the boss of the boss of the boss that I'd be working for." "So... what kind of job are you interviewing for?" "Anything in engineering or design." "I'm not picky or proud." "I just..." "I just want to work here." "If you're an architect, this is the... place to be." "Hi." "I'm Ollie." "He's my brother." "Hi." "It's nice to meet you, Ollie." "I'm Blake." "You know, you're quite beautiful." " Why, thank you." " Ollie." "Do you..." "Sorry." "Do you remember..." "do you remember what we discussed?" "Sit still and no talking." "It's not normal to bring little brothers to job interviews." "And let's not embarrass me, okay?" "Do you mind if I get your phone number for him?" " Ollie!" "It's exactly..." " What?" "You'll never ask for it." "And then I'll have to listen to how much you regretted not getting it." " I..." " Mr. Taylor?" " Ms. Carter will see you now." " Thank you." "I..." "Good luck." "Thank you." "And you, sit here." "And don't say another word." " Hi." "I'm Ben." " Hello." " We're gonna head straight over." " Excellent." "What do you want to talk about?" " Where you from?" " England." "Ben thought that while our parents were going to be on a cruise, he and I should take a holiday here in the city," " after his interview." " Awesome." "Would you like to hear our itinerary?" "Susan." " It's nice to finally meet you." " You as well." "Now that Daniel's asked you to move in with him, things must be pretty serious." "Yes." "Hi." "I'm Larissa." "I'll be taking care of you today." " Can I tell you about our specials?" " Please, I'd love to hear..." "Actually, could you come back in a few minutes, Larissa?" "Yeah." "Sure." "So..." "I understand you've been married before?" "Yes." " And you have just the one daughter." "Right?" " Right." "Your other one drowned in an accident?" "Yes, to put it bluntly." " I didn't mean it like that." " Can you just give me one minute?" "Hi." "Everything okay?" "Yeah." "Oh, I'm on my way to maintenance before we head out, and..." "Am I interrupting anything?" "Nothing important." "What's going on?" "Look, I just..." "I wanted to tell you I was sorry for how I acted yesterday." " No, Ray, really..." " No, Emma..." "I just wasn't ready to hear about you and Blake moving in with someone else." "I should've told you before." "Hey, how's Blake feel about it?" "You know, she'd like us to be a family again." "I think it's gonna be hard for her to..." " Emma." "Emma." " Oh, my God." "We're having an earthquake." "Oh, Jesus, Ray." "I gotta get out of here." "Where are you?" " The Tate Weston." " Shit." "You're on the top floor." "Emma, listen, get as many people as you can and get to the roof." "I'm in the Helo and I'll get you from there, okay?" " Okay, okay!" " Okay." "Get to the roof, honey." "No, no, no, no, no, no." "No." "Under the table." "Drop, cover and hold on!" "Lawrence, the Richter just jumped from 6.5 to an 8.5." " Well, what does that mean?" " Powers of ten!" "So it's a hundred times stronger now!" "Don't worry." "Caltech is probably the safest place to be right now." "Professor!" "It looks like the whole San Andreas fault line is being activated." "And it's heading towards San Francisco." "All right." "All done." "Okay." "Well, it was really nice to meet you, Ollie." "I hope you have fun while you're here." "Bye, Blake." "It was nice meeting you, as well." "Goodbye." "Oh, and..." "I almost forgot." "Do you mind if I borrow your book for a second?" "Tell Ben that I'll put in a good word for him." " Bye." " Bye." "I can't wait to be twenty." " Here you go." " Thank you." "It's an earthquake!" "Well, go, go, go!" "Get us out of here!" "Oh, God." "Hurry!" "Yes!" "Go, go, go!" "Jesus Christ!" "Oh, shit!" "Go!" "My legs!" " You okay?" " Oh, my God." "He's dead!" " Blake?" "Blake?" "Blake." " He's dead." "Are you okay?" "Are you hurt?" "No, I don't think..." "I don't think so." "But my legs are stuck." "Come on." "Okay." "Okay." "We're gonna get you out of here." "Okay?" "Oh, God." "Okay." "Think." "Think." "Daniel?" " Blake, I'm gonna go for help." " No, Daniel..." " I'll be right back." "I'll be right back." " Daniel, don't." "Please don't leave me alone!" "Daniel!" "No, Daniel." "Let's go!" "Keep moving!" " Come on." "Hurry!" "Let's go!" " Help!" "Help!" " Keep moving!" "Keep moving!" "Let's go!" " Help!" " There's a girl trapped in a town car!" " Where?" "In the parking garage!" "Get up!" "Get up!" "Out of the building!" "Get outside!" "Mr. Riddick!" "Mr. Riddick?" "Mr. Riddick!" "Help me!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "Move it." "Blake." "Oh, my God." " Susan!" "Susan!" " Emma!" "We gotta get to the roof!" "We've gotta get out of here!" "This way!" " Get out of my way!" " Susan!" "Susan!" "Oh, God!" "Oh, my God." "This way!" "Get over here!" " Ma'am, we got to go!" " Okay." "Okay." "Come on, keep moving!" "Keep moving!" "Larissa!" "Larissa, you have to come with me!" "We've gotta get to the roof!" "Everybody, there's a rescue helicopter coming!" "Wait!" "We've gotta go up!" "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "Ray, you better be right about this." "Ray." "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "Up there!" "Oh, shit." "Come on, Emma." "Come on." "We gotta go." "Emma, run!" "Emma." "Ray!" " Ray!" " Emma!" "I got you!" "Ray." "Emma, are you hurt?" " Are you hurt?" " I don't think so." "Okay." "It's gonna be okay, but listen, we gotta get out of here." "I need you to get to the front left seat." "I'll be right there." "Okay?" "Shit!" "Oh, my God." "Oh, God." " Ray!" " Hold on!" "Help!" "Somebody help me!" "Help!" "Somebody help!" " This is Ray." " Dad, please help!" "Blake, what's wrong?" "...in a huge earthquake!" "I don't know where Daniel went." "I'm stuck in a limo in a garage..." "I'm really, really scared, Dad!" " Baby, are you hurt?" " No..." " Blake!" "Goddamn it." " What?" "What is it?" "Shit." "Her cell service just went out." "There's no way rescue personnel are gonna be diggin' in garages any time soon." "Too many populated places above ground." "What... what are we gonna do?" "We're going to get our daughter." "Blake!" "Blake!" "Help!" "I'm over here!" "Blake!" "Blake, it's Ben." "Are you okay?" "I can't get out." "The roof's collapsing." "My legs are trapped." "Okay." "Okay." "Ollie, we need to lift this beam to get the pressure off her legs." " Okay?" " Yeah." "Let's try this." "Okay, ready?" "Ready?" "One, two, three." "Come on, Ollie." "Give it everything you've got." "I am!" "It's working!" "Ollie!" "Ben?" "Ollie?" "We're still here." "We're still here." "Oh, no." "No." "You guys have to get out of here." "This building's gonna collapse." "No." "There's not a chance in hell we're leaving you in there." "Okay." "Okay." "All right." "Here we go." "Brilliant." "It's working." " It won't go any higher." " I'm still stuck!" " Ollie..." " She's moving!" "Hurry, hurry." "Hurry!" "Are you okay?" "Yeah." " Are you sure?" " Yeah." " Thank you." "Thank you, guys." " Pleasure." "Good job." "Come on." "It's another aftershock." "We've got to get out of here." "Look out!" "Hurry!" "Come on!" "We have to get away from these buildings." " Blake!" "Blake!" " Oh, my God." "This way!" "This way!" " Jesus!" "Ollie!" " Oh, my God!" "Blake!" " Come on!" " Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "I cannot believe that Daniel just took off." "What an asshole." "Step aside, people..." "I gotta get ahold of my parents." "I gotta let them know I'm okay." "Cellphones aren't working." "I've tried." "We need to find an electronics store." "Does that book of yours list businesses?" "My book has everything." "The good news is most of our emergency systems are still working." "We've got signals coming in from seventeen monitors." "We just experienced a 9.1." "Lawrence... you need to see this." "What do we got?" "Here are the pulse rates before the quake." " Yeah, okay." " And here are the pulse rates now." "The same." "Or higher." "So the earthquake didn't diminish them." "Oh, man." "Oh, this is not good." "Alexi, I want all the data from every monitoring station still up along the fault line and get it for me now." " Right." " What's going on?" " This is not over." " Shit." "Oh, man." "This thing's fried." " Come on." "I need everybody." " What are we doing?" "Gettin' you on the air." "We need to warn people." " How?" "There's no way to upload a signal." " You're at Caltech." "Okay, who wants an A in independent study?" "I'm startin' a new class, "How to save lives by hacking media outlets"." " Hell, yeah, man." "I'm in." " Sweet, bro." "Get your laptop." "Let's go." "Right here." "Move." "Here we go." "Up." "Lift." "It should be just up ahead." "There it is." "Okay, anything running on electricity isn't gonna work, so we have to find... a rotary or a push button phone." "How do you know all this?" "My dad." "He works for L.A. Fire and Rescue." "Over here." "Great." "I'll look for a landline." "I got one!" " Blake?" " Dad." "Dad." "I got out." "I'm okay." "She's okay." "Let me talk to her." "Blake?" "Mom?" "Thank God, honey." "Is Daniel okay?" " He left me, Mom." " He what?" "He told a security guard where I was and then he just took off and... these two brothers that I met overheard him and they came to help me." " I'm with them right now." " He left her?" "We're comin' to get you, honey." "Where are you?" "I'm in an electronics store in Chinatown." "Honey, it's gonna be okay, but I need you to listen to me." "Getting out of there is gonna be a complete gridlock nightmare, so get to higher ground, it's safer." " That's where I'm gonna be able to see you." " Okay." "Do you remember where we spent Mallory's birthday weekend?" "At Coit Tower?" "Yeah." "That tall cement nozzle thing on the hill." "Exactly." "Don't stop anywhere." "Go there." "That's where we'll meet." "Stay strong, honey." "We're comin' to get you." "Okay." "Wait, Mom..." "Mom, how are you and Dad together?" "We'll explain later." "Okay, honey?" "I love you." "I love you guys." "Bye." "Hi, you've reached Daniel." "Please leave me a message and I'll get back to you." "You left my daughter?" "If you're not already dead, I'm gonna fuckin' kill you." "Thatta girl." "All right, we need to get going." " So how is your dad going to pick us up?" " He's on his way in a helicopter." "That's so cool." "I need you to look up Coit Tower on your map." "It's your turn." "Your parents will be worried sick." "Thank you." "Stay on the street." "Where are we going?" "Get out of my way!" "Hey!" "That was my spot..." "You know, when you were talking to Blake... that was the first time I heard you say Mallory's name since we lost her." "Hey, do you know that Blake keeps pictures from our San Francisco trip?" "Yeah, in her memory box." "It's ironic." "Us heading back up there." "It was a fun trip." " Where are we?" " Bakersfield." "Or what's left of it." "We're just about ninety minutes from San Francisco." "Ray?" "Did you just turn off the engine?" "Yeah, we got a gearbox failure." "Must've been that hit we took in L.A." " I'm gonna have to autorotate down." " Auto-what?" "We're gonna crash." " Right." "Okay." " Hold on." "Here we go." "Hold on!" "Oh, my God!" "Almost there." "Almost there." "We're just gonna set it down right here." "We got fuel all over us." "We need to get out of here." "Come on." "We gotta go." "Stay low." "Stay low." "It's okay." "We just gotta keep movin'." "Just gotta keep movin'." "Come on, come on, come on, come on." "Get in, get in, get in, get in." " Looks like it's been stolen." " All right." "Well, we'll steal it again." "Ray." "Easy." "I'll be needin' that truck." "Not today." "Oh, my God." "The quake centered about twenty miles east of downtown Los Angeles." "Cell towers are down." "Most of the city's electricity, down." "Communication at a virtual standstill." "The devastation to Southern California is expected to be massive." "In fact, the entire state will take a hit." "We're already getting reports of..." " We're in." " Yes." "...San Francisco and the surrounding Bay Area." " There have been at least five aftershocks..." " Okay." "Here we go." "Producers are telling us we have our first live feed from Los Angeles." "Serena Johnson is on the ground at the seismology center at Caltech." "Hello, Chris." "I'm here with Dr. Lawrence Hayes, executive director for earthquake studies at Caltech." "He and his research partner, Dr. Kim Park, have come up with a model that predicts earthquakes." "They knew L.A. was going to get hit." "But nobody listened to them." "It's time now to listen." " Go ahead, doctor." " Okay." "In seismology terms, what we're experiencing is what we call a swarm event." "Basically, California's entire tectonic plate has shifted." "Yes, it seems the quake we experienced here in Los Angeles did major damage all the way up in San Francisco." "Yeah, but the earthquake that they felt was from movement along the fault line in the central valley." "Their end of the fault line has not moved yet." "More importantly, people need to know that the shaking is not over." "And it's not aftershocks I'm talking about." "San Francisco will get hit again." "And it's going to be a bigger monster this time." "Our models are predicting a 9.5 or greater." "It will be so big that even though it's happening here in California you will feel it on the east coast." "Now, I cannot emphasize this enough to the people of San Francisco:" "You need to get out." "And I mean now." "And if you can't, you need to find any means possible to drop cover and hold on." "Because your life is gonna depend on it." "God be with you." "Aftershocks continue to rock the Los Angeles area..." "You ever think about what our life would be like if we hadn't lost Mallory?" " Em, don't." " I do." "All the time." " We've moved on." " No, we didn't move on." " We stopped moving." " You didn't lose her on your watch." " No." "But I lost her." " Can we not talk about this?" "You owe it to me." "This... this is the most I've gotten out of you since she died." "I need to know, Ray." "Was it me?" "What did I do?" " Because I never blamed you." " I don't wanna talk about it." "It doesn't matter." "She's gone." "Now you're gone." "What's the point?" "I guess the point is... this is why I didn't stick around." "Look out!" "Watch out!" "You have to stop!" "Ray!" "What is this?" "The San Andreas fault." "I told you we should've gone the other way." "Because you knew this was gonna happen?" "You..." " We owe you guys a huge thanks." " Really." "No need." "We nearly made the same mistake ourselves, but... busted an axle when we ran off the road." "Thank goodness my eyes are better than his." "Do you know if there's any way around this?" "Well... the one-ninety-eight might not be out." "Through the pass." "How far is that?" "Ya gotta backtrack, maybe..." "seventy miles or so." "Sir, if you don't mind me askin'..." "Where'd you get your hat?" "You guys really bailed us out." "You sure we can't fly you anywhere?" "Yeah." "Our son lives in the mountains." "There's no place to land." " Thanks for the wheels." " You bet." "Be safe." "Bye." "We should be fueled up in a couple of minutes." "Okay, great." "Everything okay?" "You asked me before if it was you." "It wasn't." "I knew you didn't blame me." "I..." "I just didn't know how to deal with Mallory's death." "It was my idea to take Mallory rafting that day." "Ray." "You can't blame yourself for what happened." "It's just different when it's your own kid." "I know." "Sometimes I can't get that look she had out of my head." "The moment she realized that..." "I wasn't gonna be able to save her." "And then coming home every day to you and Blake only made it harder." "Because nothing' was the way it used to be." "And the way it used to be was..." "It was perfect." "I should've let you in." "I just didn't know how." "I'm so sorry for how things ended with us, Em." "I really am." "If you couldn't save our daughter... then nobody could have." "I miss her so much." "Me, too." "Let's go get our daughter." "Let's go!" "Keep it movin'!" "Let's go!" "Come on." "Let's go." "Follow the evacuation route." "Just a few more blocks to Lombard Avenue, which leads to Coit Tower." "Do you mind if I ask why you wear two of the same necklaces?" "One of them used to be my sister's." "I..." "I started wearing it after she died." "We had given them to each other for Christmas the year before." " I'm..." "I'm so sorry." "I didn't mean..." " No." "It's okay." "I'm..." "I'm not hiding them." "Hey." "Check it out." "What are you doing?" "They should have a supply box." "It'll have stuff that we can use." "Is this it?" "Yes!" "Okay." "There we go." "Every city has a tactical channel that first responders use to communicate on." "We can listen in and we can see what's going on." "Okay." " Here." "Take these." " Yeah." " Take this." " What's an MRE?" "Meals ready-to-eat." "These things have a shelf life of over three years." " They don't taste so good." " Cool." "Blake!" "I think we're going to have a problem with that big nozzle thing you were talking about." "What?" "What do you mean?" "Oh, my God." "We have to go to plan B." " I didn't think we had one." " We do now." "We need to get to the next highest ground so that we can signal my dad" " in the helicopter." " That would be Nob Hill." "It's the highest point in the city." "It's the other way." " Okay." "Come on." " Bl... no." "Blake, wait!" "Wait!" "Just..." "Just wait." "Coming through." "Move, move, move." "Blake, we'd be the only ones going that way." "My dad said to get to higher ground, so that's what we gotta do." "But... what if he doesn't make it?" "Listen, I know that this sounds crazy... but you have to trust me that he will." "I..." "I c..." "Ben..." "Did you know about the push-button phone working with the landline?" "The supply box?" "Tactical radio channels?" "I really think we should stick with her." "Okay." "Looks like we're going to Nob Hill." "Okay." "Let's go." "...message is transmitted at the request of the California emergency management." "Residents are encouraged to evacuate immediately..." " Looks like the whole city's evacuating." " Em, we got a problem at the airport." " Where are we gonna land?" " We can't." "At least, not in the city." "Come with me." "Okay." "You gotta be kidding me." "Em, we have no place to set this plane down and we have to get as close to Coit Tower as we possibly can." "In three minutes, we're gonna be over The Embarcadero." "And?" "And... we're gonna drop into ATT Park." " But I don't know how to parachute." " That's okay." "We're gonna tandem-jump." "I think we should just stay with the plane." "The plane's gonna nosedive in the Pacific as soon as it runs out of gas." "Okay." "Trust me." "Oh, my God!" " You ready?" " Do I sound ready?" "Yep!" "It's been a while since I got you to second base." "With a grave warning from Dr. Lawrence Hayes blanketing the airwaves..." "San Francisco has begun evacuation procedures." "The coast guard is asking anyone with access to a boat to will please volunteer their end of the fault line has not moved yet." "San Francisco is going to get hit again, and this will be a much bigger monster." "I hope we've given everyone enough warning." " This is it, isn't it?" " Right now I wanna be so wrong." "Everyone, take cover!" "This will be over soon here, but pray for the people of San Francisco." "Did you know "nob" is a slang term which means "rich" or "wealthy?"" "It's a shortened version of the word "nobility,"" "because of the families that live there." "It's also derisively known as "snob hill"." " What is it?" " Daniel built that building." "Oh, my God." "Oh, shit." "Move!" "Move!" "Come on, Ollie!" " Ollie!" " I want to go home now!" "Just hold on." "It's gonna be okay." "I promise." "They're gonna get killed out there." "Em, get to the side of the stadium." "I'll be right there." "I'll be right there!" "It's not safe here." "Get to the side of the stadium!" "Go to the side of the stadium right now!" "This building's gonna collapse." "You need to move!" "Hurry!" "You gotta get off the street!" "Get to the side of the stadium right now!" "Side of the stadium!" "Get to the side of the stadium!" "Come on." "Come on." "Come on." "Off the street!" "Get to the stadium." "Side of the stadium!" "Come on!" "Get out of the street!" "It's all right!" "I got you." "I got you." "And up!" " Over here, Ray!" "I got her." "I got her." " Here." "Take her, Em." "You're gonna be okay." "You're gonna be okay." "Everybody down!" "Everybody okay?" "Anybody hurt?" "No." "Emma, you okay?" "Yeah." "How'd you know we'd be safe?" "Just get up against something sturdy." "Protect yourself." "Triangle of life." "Let's go." "She's gonna be okay." "But how do we get through that?" "We don't." "We go around it." "Okay." "We have to get that out of there." "If you try walking with it, it could cause more damage." "This is gonna hurt." "Are you ready?" "Ben!" "I'm all right." "I'm all right." "Do you think you could put some weight on it?" "We have to keep moving." " We gotta get up that hill." " Yeah." "Okay." "Here." "How bad did they get hit?" "9.6." "Largest quake in recorded history." "Oh, no." "Coit's been burning a while." "She's gone someplace else." "Now, where are you, baby?" "Where are you?" "What's your plan B?" " Oh, shit." " What's happening?" "We gotta go." "Water being pulled out like that's a Tsunami." "We gotta get out of the bay, now." "Wait." "Wait, wait a second, just give me one second." "God!" "The weather service has issued a Tsunami warning for coastal areas of northern and central California, including the following counties:" "Marin, Napa, San Francisco and Monterey." "Come on, guys." "We gotta go!" "We gotta go!" "We gotta move fast!" "We gotta get to Daniel's building." "Ray?" "I see it!" "All right, hold on!" "We gotta get over it before it crests!" "Come on!" "Come on!" "We're gonna make it." "We're gonna make it!" "Oh, shit!" "Ray!" "Shit." "What's that noise?" "We're not high enough." "Get down!" "Get down!" "Take cover!" "Hold on tight, Ollie!" "Ben!" "Ollie." "The water's still rising." "We have to get higher." "This way." " Ben." " Ollie, come." "Grab on." "Oh, my God." "Where is she, Ray?" "She's a smart girl." "She'd know to head for one of these high-rises." "We just gotta find her." "Are you all right?" "We need to take a look at that leg." "Okay." "Ollie, see if there's something that we can use as a bandage." " And see if you can find clean water." " Yeah." "Okay." "Let's see what we're dealing with here." "What?" "You're absolutely... unbelievable." "Mum's going to love her." " There are a few towels in here." " Oh, great." "I'll look for some water." "Hey!" "I can see some people in a boat!" "No way." "No way!" "Those are my parents!" "Mom!" "Dad!" "Mom!" " Help!" "Hey!" " Dad!" "Dad!" "Mom!" "Mom." "They can't hear us." "What?" "Em, if we don't get to her soon, we're gonna need some gas." "We got maybe an hour, hour and a half tops..." " Ray?" "Hold on." " Yeah?" "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God, it's Blake!" " Oh, my God!" " Emma!" "We found her." "Blake!" "Ollie!" "Ollie!" "Ollie!" "Ollie!" "Ollie!" "I've got you!" "I've got you!" "Where's Blake?" "She's back there!" "Stay here, Ollie." "Blake!" "Blake!" "Bla..." "No!" "No!" "No!" "The building's sinking!" "We have to move." "We have to move up." "Come on, Ollie, hurry!" "No, no, no, no." "Oh, my God, Blake!" "Em, take the wheel." "I see a way in." "I'm going after her." "Ray." "I'm bringin' her back." "I promise." " Blake!" " Dad!" " Don't worry." " The door's blocked!" "Blake, don't worry." "I'm gonna get you out of here." "Okay?" "I'm gettin' you out!" "Daddy, I'm scared." "I'm running out of air!" "Daddy, I don't think I can do this." "Blake, you hold on, hold on!" "There!" "Ben, I don't want Blake to die." "She's not going to die." "I'm going back for her." "Okay?" "But I need you to stay here." "Okay?" "Good boy." "Ollie!" "Ben!" "On my back!" "On my back, Ollie!" "Blake's going to die." "Isn't she?" "Dad." " All right." " Dad." "I lo..." "I love you, Dad." "And please, please tell..." "please tell Mom that I love her, too." " Blake, don't you quit on me!" "Blake!" " Daddy." "I'm sorry, Dad." "Blake!" "No!" "Blake!" "Blake!" "Blake!" "Move, Ollie." "Move." "Come on." "Breathe, Blake." "Breathe, honey." "We gotta get out of here." "Break a window!" "Oh, my God." "Move!" "Get out of the way!" "Watch out!" " Get on!" "Let's go!" "Let's go!" " Move." "Move, Ollie." " Come on, Ray." " Take her, Emma." "I got her." "It's okay." "Here you go." "Wake up, honey." "Come on." "Got her." "Get us out of here, Em!" "The building's coming down." "Everybody down!" "Okay, Blake." "Okay, Dad and I, we're right here now." "We're right here." "Breathe, Blake." "Breathe." " Come on." "Don't leave me." "Come on." " Breathe." "Dad and I are right here, all right?" "Ray..." "My baby." "I'm not gonna lose you, too." "No." "Come on." " Oh, my God." " Blake?" "Okay." "Okay." " Mom." " I'm right here." "I'm right here." "Yeah." "We are now getting a better picture of the scale of the devastation." "And this was the sight in many neighborhoods:" "Families and friends huddled together, shaken but grateful to still be alive." "Seismologists will be keeping a close watch on all of the world's tectonic plates as the San Andreas quake could have rippling effects throughout the globe." "Closer to home, nerves are finally calming..." "Hey." "You did good." "Thank you." "We all did." "...and The White House." "Authorities in San Francisco are attributing a tremendous amount of lives saved thanks to local experts, who were able to give ample warning of the massive quake." "Meanwhile, recovery efforts have begun in the Bay Area where FEMA, the National Guard and U.N. relief teams have all been mobilized." "Aided by the thousands of volunteers pouring into the state." "Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed by thy name..." "Ollie." "Ben." "I..." "I found this on the boat." "Thank you." "Hey, I wanna thank you guys for bein' there for Blake." " Yeah, thank you." " You're welcome." "But it was more like she was there for us." "I think." "This is incredible." "So... what now?" "Now we rebuild."
