"NARRATOR:" "Chester's Mill is a place like any other." "At least it used to be." "[RUMBLING]" "Until we were cut off from the rest of the world by a mysterious dome." "[THUMP]" "[COW MOOING]" "Invisible, indestructible and completely inescapable." "We're trapped." "NARRATOR:" "We don't know where it came from or why it's here, but now that we're all trapped under the dome together, none of our secrets are safe." "JULIA:" "Who the hell are you?" "BARBIE:" "Barbie." "People just call me Barbie." "It's a nickname." "My husband isn't here, but he'll turn up, you'll see." "What do we do when people ask about the propane?" " That's your business." " Heh, heh, heh." "Duke, is it your pacemaker?" " Ah!" " Stop!" "No one can hear us all the way down here." "ANGIE:" "Let me out of here!" "Ah!" " Junior." " Dad." "JULIA:" "You can stay with me." "Come on, I'll give you the nickel tour." "Unh!" " Where is it?" " I don't have it." "Yeah?" "My boss is not gonna like that." "You got one day." "You hear me?" "Listen, all you gotta do is pay up." "You might wanna think about it." "You don't wanna do anything stupid." "[GUNSHOT]" "[PANTING]" "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" "Yeah?" " You all right?" " Yup, fine." "You were talking in your sleep." "Yelling, actually." " Is that thing still out there?" " Yeah, looks like it." "The hazmat suits haven't left." "Julia, thanks again for letting me crash here." "With my husband missing and everything that happened today, it was nice to have the company." " I'll see you in the morning." " Great." "Did you lose something?" "You didn't happen to see a pair of dog tags around anywhere, did you?" "No, but I'll keep an eye out." "Night." "[SIREN WAILING]" "FREDDY:" "Linda, Linda!" " What the hell happened?" " Who shot Duke?" "No one shot Duke, Paul." "Calm down." "He just got close to this thing and his pacemaker exploded." "[DOME HUMMING AND FREDDY GRUNTS]" "Holy..." "If this thing blows up mechanical things, then why didn't Freddy's watch explode?" "It's a windup." "It must only affect things with batteries." "Either way, just check the road blocks, make sure nobody gets near this thing." "PAUL:" "Who's in charge now?" " You're a cop." "Do your job." " What about me?" " We need to take care of Duke." "BEN:" "Joe, wait up." " I'm fine." "BEN:" "No, you're not." "An hour ago you were having a seizure, flopping around like a fish on a hook." "Did I say anything?" "Yeah, something about stars, pink stars." " Anything you wanna tell me?" " No." " Hey, any luck, you guys?" "MAN:" "Not yet." "This thing goes down far." "Oh, my God, you know what all this means?" "We're so not having that trig test tomorrow." " Trig." "That's a great idea." " It is?" "I could totally map this thing, see if there's any holes." " I'm coming with you." " Dude, you don't have to." "Buddy, Lewis had Clark, you got me, all right?" "Come on." "Did you hear anything more about the military on that contraption of yours?" "Nope, I lost the signal, but I'm trying to get it back." "It's not as easy as cueing up the next Van Halen track." "Now, why is it that engineers always act superior to DJs?" "Because we're smarter, Phil." "MAN [OVER RADIO]:" "Negative, sir." "Fire is ineffective against the surface, but we can confirm there is no radioactivity emanating from the dome." "They did it again." "Second time in 24 hours they called it a dome." "Yeah, I heard them." "No, I don't think you did, because you'd be freaking out too." "We're under a dome, Dodee." "Now, this is not just some invisible wall where a chopper can drop in and rescue us, man." " We gotta tell people." " And we will." "It's just right now we only know enough to scare the crap out of them." "To be continued." "[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO]" "[MUSIC STOPS]" "Faithful insomniacs, Phil Bushey here." "It's been a long night, and if you're listening to me, it's because you've got no choice." "You see, this barrier thing is blocking all of the cell phones, TV, Internet." "Everything in our humble burg of Chester's Mill." "Theories about what's causing this range from the North Koreans to a breach in the space-time continuum..." "JIM:" "Sorry I didn't get to you sooner." "Had to make sure the clinic and nursing home were taken care of." "You're kidding me." "If you're not careful, people are gonna start calling you Santa Claus." "[SWITCH CLICKS]" "Oh, God bless you, Jim Rennie." "How much do I owe you?" "JIM:" "Ho-ho-ho." "Oh, my God." "The lights are back." "Did that invisible wall come down?" "Well, I'm afraid not, but we got gennies up and running." "So we have some power." "At least get back to some sense of normal." "I don't believe we've met." "Councilman Jim Rennie, this is Carolyn and her partner, Alice." "They're staying in my spare room upstairs." "They're in from L.A." "We got trapped driving through your little town." " We're taking our daughter Norrie to..." " To camp." "But we have to get out of here." "Our daughter is sick." " She had a seizure." " Does your girl have epilepsy?" "No, it can happen to anyone." "Caffeine, sleep deprivation." " I've seen it in my patients." " She's a psychiatrist." "Well, I'm sorry you ladies aren't discovering Chester's Mill under better circumstances, but trust me, if you're gonna be stuck somewhere, this is the place to be." "I've lived here my entire life and no place I'd rather call home." "Jim, I need you to come with me." "Duke's dead." "Look at me, damn it!" "Anyone?" "I wouldn't even bother." "You could strip naked in front of these guys." "They're still not gonna pay attention." "I tried that an hour ago." "They didn't even blink." "Oh, I looked around, by the way, but no sign of your dog tags." "Oh, yeah, no worries." "You know what?" "I probably just left them in my car." "So, what makes you think these guys are under orders not to talk to us?" "Because they're not talking to us." "Maybe they did this, you know." "Maybe they're responsible." " And why would they do that?" " I don't know." "Could be an experiment." "Some sort of portable detention camp." "Maybe we're being used as guinea pigs." "Whatever it is, these guys are the reason my husband is trapped out there." "[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]" " Where are you heading?" " The radio station." "They might not be talking to us, but they're talking to somebody." "[DOOR RATTLING]" "I told you, you're safe with me." "ANGIE:" "Mr. Rennie!" "Mr. Rennie!" "Ah!" "[POUNDING ON DOOR]" " Mr. Rennie!" "Mr. Rennie!" " Angie, my dad's not home." " Mr. Rennie, help!" " My dad's not home!" "Mr. Rennie!" "Let go of me!" "Let go!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "[ANGIE GRUNTING]" " What the hell do you want from me?" " Look, I just want you to go back to being the Angie I knew before yesterday." "We were doing great and then this thing comes down and you tell me to take a hike." "I think it scrambled your brain." "One of us has a scrambled brain, all right." "You can't see it, but I can." "You're sick, Angie, but I'm gonna make you better." "If I'm so sick, then why don't you take me to the hospital?" " If you care about me so much." " Because he might still be there." " Who might still be there?" " The guy I saw you with." " What guy?" " Yesterday, outside the hospital." "Barbie." "The guy who came in with Mrs. Shumway?" " I don't even know him." " Don't play dumb with me, Ange." " I can see right through you." " All he did was give me a cigarette." "Uh-huh." "What did I ever do to you?" " You loved me." " No." " Junior, I never..." " Yes, Angie, you did." "And when this thing comes down, you're gonna love me again." "I will never love you!" "You were right." "That guy at the hospital, we didn't just share a cigarette." "He screwed my brains out and I loved it." "I loved it more than I ever did with you." "You'll never be the man that he is." "Junior!" "Junior!" "Holy hell." "He was a good man." "I loved him." "He was like a father to me." "He was a good friend." "Just before he died, he tried to tell me something." "Tried telling you what?" "He said there were things that I didn't know about Chester's Mill." "Things that he needed to protect me from." "What did that mean?" "I wish I could tell you." "What am I gonna do with another body?" "Cemetery's outside the barrier, my freezer's full." "JIM:" "Show some respect." "This isn't just another body." " This is Duke Perkins." "LESTER:" "What's that?" "Turn up your hearing aid, Lester." "I said, this is Duke Perkins." "Oh, no." "Oh, good Lord." "Deputy Esquivel, I'm so sorry for your loss." "Thank you, Reverend Coggins." "I should get back out there." "You're right, Linda." "Go out there and do your job." "I'll make sure Duke here gets taken care of." "You're using our stuff." "You're high as a kite." "So what?" "It's judgment day, Jim." "I might as well be feeling the rapture." "The only reason we got into this was to try to save Chester's Mill." "No, that's the reason Duke went along with it." "You and I, we had other priorities." "All right?" "I mean, at least now we don't have to worry about him talking." "Real man of God there, rev." " Come on, let's go." " What?" "Where are we going?" "To clean up our mess." "Dude, found a way out." "Check it." " Heh." "You're such an idiot." " Ha, ha, ha." "BARBIE:" "It's Joe, right?" " Yeah, McAlister." "Dude, this is the guy who saved my ass when that plane went down." "He totally said it was raining arms and legs." "Yeah, you could say that." "What are you up to?" "So far I marked these points." "By measuring the distance between them," "I was able to come up with the Y coordinate." "And then by multiplying it by its K integer..." "He connected the dots." "It's totally gonna be a circle." "So far it looks like it's about 10 miles across." "It covers the entire Mill, including some of Lake Eastpoint." " And you did this?" " Yeah, but we're being really careful." "Keep it up." " Where did that guy come from?" " Definitely not from around here." "How do you know?" "Because he's cool." " Come on, Dodee, you just had them." " Patience, Phillip." "[STATIC OVER RADIO]" " Did you get something?" " Shh." "MAN [OVER RADIO]:" "Air traffic has been rerouted around Chester's Mill until further notice." "We will continue to monitor the air space." "JULIA:" "What the hell is that?" "Jim, what are you doing?" "I was, um, looking for that." "It's Duke's will." "Go ahead, read it." "[SNIFFLING]" "He, uh, left me his house." "Everything." "Of course he did." "He treated you like the daughter he never had." "[SIGHS]" "[LINDA SOBBING]" "LINDA:" "Now what do we do?" "That's a close call, no thanks to you." "What was I supposed to do, phone you?" " So, what did you find out?" " Nothing to do with propane." "Duke must have kept the records at his house." "Yeah, it's not his house anymore." "He left it to the girl." "So you better get over there before she does." " Me?" "What are you gonna do?" " My job, Lester." "Now get out." "I'm the only councilman left in Chester's Mill." "Got a town to take care of." "JULIA:" "You made this?" " Yeah, I'm only three credits short of my master's degree in electrical engineering." "JULIA:" "Wow." " Yeah." " How does it work?" "Well, this is a harmonic microwave frequency converter." "It turns low frequency waves into high frequency waves so that we can hear..." " Maybe you should just let me hear it." " Okay, sometimes it's hard to pick up." "[STATIC ON RADIO]" "MAN [ON RADIO]:" "Further tests reveal the dome appears to be impervious to high-energy lasers and all class-8 corrosive chemicals." " We're under a dome." " Yeah, that's what they keep calling it." " Why haven't you told anybody?" " We're not a news station." "Hey, Phil." "That was some face-melting rock 'n' roll brought to you by..." " I'm going on." "DODEE:" "I tried to stop her." " I'm sorry, what are you doing?" "JULIA:" "Going on the air." "No, you can't." "This is Julia Shumway from The Weekly Independent." "I have some news for all of us stuck here inside Chester's Mill." "I have just learned that the barrier around Chester's Mill is being called a dome." "This information appears to be coming from military sources positioned just outside Chester's Mill, just outside the dome." "We will keep updating you as information comes in." "So stay tuned to..." "WYBS, your only source of news from under the dome." " What does that mean?" " I have no idea." "I do, Mom." "It means we're all gonna die in here." "ROSE:" "This dome thing, how big is it?" " No idea." " We're under a dome?" "MAN:" "We gonna run out of air?" "Until I find out where Julia got this information," "I think it's best that we just all stay calm." " What if it collapses on us?" " Great, now the sky is falling." "If we keep our heads and we stick together, we'll get through this." "Hey, "We'll get through this"?" "You don't know what this dome thing might do." "Right, but the last thing we need right now is for people to panic." "That thing took Duke." "Who's next?" "Pull yourself together and get out on patrol." "People are scared and when people are scared they start acting stupid." "Yeah, you'd have to be stupid not to be scared." "You know, I just hope someone tries to blow this damn thing up." " Do you think he's gonna be okay?" " He's gotta be." "We're gonna need every man we got." "Think we'll ever see him again?" "Who, Rusty?" "Come on, Linda." "My brother is not gonna let some magic bubble thing keep him from seeing you again." "That is Rusty." "And you know, I probably shouldn't be telling you this, but he's taking you to Hawaii for your honeymoon." "That dog told me that I had to settle for Niagara Falls." "LINDA:" "Reverend." " Hey, how you holding up?" "Got our hands full, but I think we'll make it." "Yeah, you're in my prayers." "JULIA [OVER RADIO]:" "Julia Shumway back with an update."

"What if we're trapped in here forever?" "I'll never get to make out with Mila Kunis." "I don't think this thing is the only thing keeping that from happening." "Let's think about it." "We could've met every girl we're ever gonna meet." "That is so depressing." "What the hell?" "JOE:" "Doing tests." "Must be checking to see if water can come through." "BEN:" "Doesn't look good." "We're screwed." "Wait." "It's like a sieve." " What the hell's a sieve?" " A strainer, you douche, like for pasta." " So it does let water through?" " Yeah, just a little." "Maybe we can get through." "Aren't we like 70 percent water?" "Yeah, it's the other 30 percent that's the problem, genius." "This, and can you give me a pack of filtered?" "Actually, you know what?"
