"Previously on Aftermath..." "There's a piece of my research." "You find it." "You understand it." "Maybe it helps you." "I want my daughter." "We offed that tasty little slice." "Please no!" " What have you done?" " Devyn, don't do this, please!" "Devyn!" "It's overheated." "It won't start." "We're not even close to safety." "No, we're miles and miles away." "What do we do?" "I don't think we have a choice." "I mean, it won't start until it cools down." "We can carry on in my truck." "There's enough room." "That's a good idea." "I'll catch up with you once I get it running." "But we're not going without you." "I can't leave this." "I can't leave my research." "I think it's the best chance we have to get through all this." " Yeah." " Take the kids." "We're not going without you." "You and Martin go." "The mission's still on." "We'll wait." "She's right." "The mission is on." "You're stuck." "I'm gonna go..." "look around." "Hey." "How are you doing?" "Great, Dana." "You know, I just killed somebody I loved, but thanks for asking." "I'm awesome." "You didn't kill him, Bree." "I could have saved him." "How?" "Loving him more." "Bree, don't you think that's... a little bit unrealistic?" "Really, Dana?" "Unrealistic?" "You want to go there?" "How old's your boyfriend?" "What, like, 32?" "28." "You know, I always thought that when you got started, it would be, like, some math guy or something, not some fling." "He's not a fling." "Bree, look, I know you're hurting." "But none of us are to blame for this." "Yes, we are!" "It is my fault, Dana." "I'm the only one to blame." "Devyn's dead, and it's on me." "Poor girl." "She cried all night." "I'm worried about her." " I'm worried about you." " Why me?" "What do you mean why you?" "Yesterday you killed four people." "You killed four people in Seattle." " You knew that?" " Of course." " Dana told me that night." " Why didn't you mention it?" "Look, it was a good plan." "I'm proud of you." "What's the plan for this?" "The volcano could blow any second." "We're gonna get ten miles down the road and break down again." "We just... we've got time." " Okay." " We could talk." "Talk." "Yeah, no, I want to." "I want to." "Right after we're out of this." "Jeez, Mom, don't you ever knock?" "I've never needed to knock." "It's my RV, is it not?" " Step forward, sir." " Welcome to my mother's stare." "I've been getting it for years." "I'm okay with it." " We'll see." "What's your name?" " Martin James Winters." "How do you know Booner?" "A Ranger buddy hooked me up six months ago." " You know a ranger?" " Did six years, ma'am." " What's your battalion?" " That's classified." "That's right." "Deployment?" " Iraq and Afghanistan." " Any tin?" "Campaign medals, bronze star, purple heart." " Purple heart." "Where?" " Right leg, ma'am..." " through and through." " Upper, lower?" " Upper." " Has she seen the scar?" "Mom, yeah, I've..." "I've seen the scar." "Little girls like scars 'cause they don't know any better." "Mom, I'm not a little girl anymore." "Are you playing with my daughter?" " No, ma'am." " Did you volunteer for this" " because of my daughter?" " Yes, ma'am." "Why?" " Don't answer that." " Answer that." "Because she's beautiful, ma'am... and very smart, and I can't stop thinking about her." "Yes, she is smart." "What do you like about this guy?" "Yeah, yeah, yeah, what he said." "Plus, I'm funny." "I'm funnier." "She's definitely funnier." "There are a thousand ways to die... you both know that." "If Dad doesn't get this thing going and the volcano blows, we could all die right here." "In light of that... be good to each other." " Yep." " Yes, ma'am." "Please." "Great." "Yeah." "But looking at your face, I'm gonna guess that... you were just talking to Dana?" "You knew about him?" "Yeah, since the Alamo." "And you didn't tell me?" "I thought it was kind of obvious." "He's a good guy." "A good guy." "Yeah, okay, he's a good guy..." "He'll be great for her." "Love it." "Love it." " We have to pick up our talk." " No, we don't." " It's not good enough..." " What?" "For some of us to live through this." "Unless we all survive, then everything is for nothing." "Well, the number-one rule of survival is don't die, make the other person die." "There are different kinds of death." "Really?" "Name two." "What if we make it through all this, but the price of it is that we die spiritually?" "That's what we're risking when we kill these people." "Josh, I get us through things." "That's what I do." "That's my job." "I'm not mystical." "That spiritual stuff, I really don't understand." "We got to go!" "We got to go!" "It's okay." "The engine is still cooling." "It's all right." " The mountain's blowing steam." " No, it's fine." "Until there's tremors, we're all safe." "Honey... I just don't want to ride with Dana." "Like, I get that they should be happy and everything." "It's just, like... too much." "Yeah, I know." "Who is that?" "That's my boy." " Ah, he's cute." " Aww, that's sweet." "He passed away about a year ago, before all this started." " Jane, I'm so sorry." " We didn't know." "I'm so sorry." "He was supposed to be getting better, so I took a deployment." "And then he didn't." "And I never got a chance to say good-bye." "Where's his dad?" "Where's anyone anymore?" "I'm sorry." "Jane, I'm sorry." "Look, I'm telling you this because you lost someone yesterday, and if I were you, I would deal with it." "And I never did." "Since when do you care about Moon Dog?" "We'll live or die based on which way the volcano erupts." "And he might know." "Paperweights these days, and I tell 'em straight," "I tell 'em all both less and great, it is the beast from the East where the boat of Ra pulls out from every morning, oh, my chicks and Chicklets." "70 miles of death in 3 directions, 10 to 20 to the west." "So let's remember that Greely lie." "Go west, young man, 'cause you go East, and you will die." " Shit." " What?" " We're going east." " Turn around." "Go west." "We can't." "We can't do that." "We'll just head back into the volcano." " Okay, north or south." " There's no other roads." "Remind us that life is one sweet kiss and then turn off the bliss." "This next load goes to all those chrome-dome strangers on the road, looking for a place to lay their hats tonight." "Godspeed, all travelers." "You're right." "There's no roads north or south." "Let me see." "Dad, look out!" " What the hell?" " For God's sake." "Oh, did you see that?" "Where'd he go?" "Wait, Matt." "Okay." "Okay." "Room for one more?" "Why don't you back up first?" "Who are you?" "I've only just arrived." "What's your name?" "Monk." "Where are your shoes?" "Where they belong, of course... away from my feet." "Razor, Book of Mormon, tea leaves." "There's no weapon." "Well, I'm from Tibet." "This body is my new vessel." "My monastery vanished in the blink of an eye." "When?" "I don't know." "I entered the void, where there is no time." "I woke up here... in this vessel." "Sniper!" "Get down!" "Take cover behind the truck!" "Martin!" "Get in!" "Get in!" "Take cover, honey!" "Martin, do you have eyes?" "Somewhere in those rocks!" "Is this you?" "Huh, buddy?" " You setting us up?" " I'm by myself." "You better get cover." "I have nothing to protect." "Dad's been hit!" " Dad!" " Stay here!" "Honey!" "Honey!" "God, stay down." "Stay down." "Stay down." "Put pressure." "Put your head down." "Put your head down." "Get down!" "He's gonna see you!" "I'm the one who sees." "Did you just kill that guy?" "Dad!" "Get him up." "Get him up." " Be careful." " Careful, careful." " Be gentle." "Be gentle." " Okay, come on." " Okay, okay." " Careful." "The freaking truck is dead..." "shot through the radiator." "We have many things to discuss." "Dad isn't gonna die." "So, stop it." "Stop thinking about it." "Thinking about what?" "Dana... he's not gonna die, all right?" "That's not what I was thinking about." "You know why Mom made you ride with me, right?" "So that I'd stop thinking about Devyn." "And you being like this is not helping me." "Well, because I'm scared." "What if he dies?" "He's not gonna die, okay?" "He's..." "'Cause he..." "It's not gonna happen." "Well, that is some poor reasoning." "Yeah, well, logic isn't everything, okay?" "Your twin voodoo or whatever told you that I wasn't dead." "I know Dad is not gonna die." "It's the same thing." "Think of something else." "I can't." "Dana, I swear." "He is not gonna die." "Is that your new mantra now?" "I don't know what a mantra is." " It's just a phrase that..." " I don't care what a mantra is." "Would you drive with me, please?" "It burns." "Honey, we're gonna have to take the round out, all right?" "How bad is it?" "How bad is it?" "It's enough that we're gonna take the round out." "Guys..." " Anesthesia?" " It's local." " Let me do it." " What are you doing?" " Let him try." " Let me take care of it." "Karen, Karen, let him try." "Okay." "Baby, I'm here with you, okay?" "The bullet missed your organs." "Very lucky." "Very lucky." "Okay." "What are you doing?" "Stay with me, Josh." "What the hell?" " Are you with me?" " Yeah." "Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad." "Come on." " It's all right." " Oh, shit." "It's all right." "It's fine." "It's okay." "It's okay." "And here's your bullet." "Will you take it, please?" "Do you have a towel?" "Yeah, yeah, yeah." "Here's one." "We have Chitosan to stop the bleeding." "No, no, it's not necessary." "Can you get my bag, please?" "I'm gonna bandage him up, okay?" "He'll be fine." "This is better than stitches." " What happened?" " No, no, he's just..." "He's sleeping." "We're gonna let him rest." "Tea leaves." "Slightly, here so he heals up really well." "See the color coming back to his face?" "Let's let him rest." "Let's just let him rest." "I hope you don't mind my saying this..." "I'm sure I will." "I see that you care deeply for your family." " Obviously I do." " But you're troubled by the number of people that you've killed." "I don't know." "You just killed somebody." "Killing involves death." "Death is an illusion." " Therefore..." " Therefore, bullshit." "Killing is real." "Huh, what is real?" "Am I real?" " Apparently." " But you wish that I wasn't." "That's not what I wish." "I don't know what I wish." "I know that I regret the people that I've killed." "I can see that." "It's no mystery." " Okay." " All right?" "To look at you is to know, it is to understand, it is to feel." "It'll be okay." "Hey..." "Martin's looking for you." "Okay." "Wow." "You're driving." "Yeah, Mom made me." " How's Dad?" " He's asleep." "He'll be okay." "You drive pretty well." "Yeah, I know." "I used to steal a lot of cars." "Matt, I'm scared." "Good." "You should be." "You never stole cars." "I was with people who stole cars." "It was influential." "What if he dies?" "He won't die." "People die all the time now." "It's the end of the world." "Well, yeah, but if you extrapolate that..." " It's just statistically..." " Smaller word, please." "Okay, if you take the situation and you project it into the future..." "You mean "extrapolate."" "You could have just said that." "Yes." "If you extrapolate the death rate around here, then we all die." "I was in firefights in Afghanistan." "You know who dies?" "People who think they're gonna die." "I swear to God." "Anyone who thought they were coming back... came back." "You think you're gonna die anytime soon?" "Honestly?" "No." "I don't." "Yeah." "I don't either." "Whatever this thing is... you and me, we're gonna be there when it ends." "We're gonna know each other for the rest of our lives." "Okay... either I'm getting the flu, or you're giving me chills." "It could be the flu." "It's not the flu." "How long was I out?" "A very brief time." "You must be strong." " Where are we?" " Still in danger." "Oh, what's new?" "We're always in danger." "Well, this danger is imminent." "The volcano will erupt and none of us will survive." "What should we do?" "I've passed through life many times." "I find the best preparation is to sing your death song." "Yeah, I don't think we're gonna be doing that." "Something else, then, but we are out of time, and most certainly, we're all going to die, so..." "How do you know we're gonna die?" "Would you believe me if I told you?" "No." " But you have an idea?" " I do, yes." "Go back to the volcano." "Back to the volcano." "That's an awesome idea." "Why didn't I think of that?" "There's a prayer wheel on it, and I believe that that's why this vessel brought me here." "What's a prayer wheel do?" "It's something that grants its possessor" " anything they desire most." " Of course." "So you could stop the volcano?" "Presumably." "Oh, right." "So you just want us to walk up an erupting volcano." " Do you really believe this?" " I'm in the business of belief." "Oh, so, if you could, say, do that, why don't you just do it yourself?" "Because I'm not the one who needs to be saved." "I can surf the wave, vessel to vessel, but... you can't." "D-do we need to talk about this more?" "I mean, you're clearly..." "completely insane." "I'm gonna..." "Honey, can we just, like, drive as fast as we can and outrun this thing?" "Oh, I regret to inform you, that will be impossible." "The road is destroyed." " Of course it is." " Just ahead of us." "Mom!" "Mom, come here a sec." "Now!" "What is it?" "We're out of road." "What do we do?" "I'm gonna talk to your dad." "Can I... can I be alone with my husband?" "Thanks." "I think we should go outside." " Honey, you've just been shot." " No, no, no." "I'm..." "I'm better." "Oh, okay." "Let's go." "Hey." "Do you believe in miracles?" "No." " I do." "Karen, look..." " Yeah?" " Holy shit." " Yeah." "Holy something." "I don't know." "I don't know." "What do you want to do?" "Believe in the guy?" "Okay, let's go back." " See the volcano." " When Mount Rainer blows, there's gonna be a pyroclastic flow that's 2,000 degrees and moving 500 miles an hour." "Okay." "There are avalanche shelters." "You're gonna go in 'em." "What are you gonna do?" "I'm gonna go find the prayer wheel." "No, I'm..." "I'm gonna go find the prayer wheel." "Oh, you're gonna go find it?" "You just got shot." " I'm healed now." "I..." " No, Josh." " You don't even believe in it." " You do, and that's enough." "I better get back." "All right." "Do you know how fast an eruption travels?" "500 miles an hour?" "Yeah, it's like liquid cement that's on fire." "It's gonna burn you alive." "That's why you're giving me this, right?" "Track me." "How far up is this thing?" "If there is even a thing." "Well, how do I know?" " The journey will not be long." " There you go." "The prayer wheel should be somewhere near the base." "What he said." "Mom, we stick together." "That's what we do." "We evaluate risk." "That's what we do." "The smallest amount of risk is me going up there alone." "You're not going alone." "I'm coming with you." "That's not necessary." "I have orders to protect you." "I'll make sure these guys don't get into trouble" " while you're gone." " You better." " I love you, okay?" " Just come back." "I will." "We should wait here for you." "Mom, come with us to the shelters." "This is not good-bye." " Please." " I promise you." " All right." " Ready?" " I'm ready." " Good." "See you tonight." "I'm sorry." "I don't believe this." "Who in the hell walks up an exploding mountain?" "Someone who's ready to die for their family." "Nobody is dying." "Nobody is dying." "Got it?" "Where are we?" "We're on track." "I just saw a sign for the shelter." "Which way?" " This way." " Okay." "You okay?" "No." " We have to keep moving." " Just go on without me." "Danny bailed, too." "How'd that work out for him?" "Danny didn't bail, Steve." "He fell off your hold." " We just left him there." " Shut up, all right?" "He griped all the way up the mountain, then he lost his edge." "Hey, don't bogart the water!" "Please." " Hey!" " Hey!" "Hey!" " Hey!" " Hey!" " What do we got?" " Two people." "Pull over." "Could be trouble." "I don't think so." "Let's stop." " Why chance it?" " Martin!" " Hey!" " Anna, look out!" "Martin, stop for them." "What are they doing?" "Hey!" "Come on, come on." " Hey, he listened to me." " Happy wife, happy life." "You... could've killed us." "Well, we didn't." "Nice way to start a conversation, pal." "Whoa." "He's just stressed, okay?" "Look, our friend fell into the crater, and we got caught in the steam, and we... we just really need a ride." " Your friend fell?" " Yeah, he froze up." "You let him go." "He was gonna fall anyways." "I chose to live." "We're headed to the avalanche shelters." "You can join us." "How you gonna do that?" "There's too many of us." "So keep walking." "No, with this many people, there's only enough oxygen in the shelters for a few hours, at most." "Yeah, the only way out is to keep driving." " Sorry." "We can't do that." " Our mother's on the volcano." " For real?" " She's dead." "Shut up about that!" "You can join us or not." "The shelter is a mistake." " Let's go." "Come on, that's it." " You got to keep driving." "Start walking, pal." "Wait." "Okay, okay, yes, we'll take the ride, right?" "Thank you." "So you met a monk, and he said there was a way to stop Rainier from erupting?" " Yeah, yeah." " And you believe him?" "Well, I got shot in the gut with a rifle just today, and he cured it, so..." "How?" "I don't know that, but it's gone." "So you believe the eruption can be stopped, but you're heading for a shelter because you think the volcano might erupt?" "Technically, yes, I guess..." "I suppose that's true." "That makes no sense." "Well, you two were trying to climb up a volcano, and then your friend died." "But we're getting down alive, no matter what." "What?" "We've reached our destination." " This is it?" " Yes." "I thought it was gonna be smaller... something I could hold or... spin." "Evidently not." "Okay." "So what do I do?" "Step into the wheel, and... oh, I assume the rest will follow." "What if I'm not pure?" "You're risking your life to protect your family." "What could be more pure than this?" "Step away, Karen." "I'm walking into that thing, not you." "Look, I don't like these two, but... they could be right." "What?" "You believe them?" "Why would they lie?" "'Cause they're random strangers we should not have picked up." "Well, my dad is usually right about things." "Your dad is a fantastic guy, but the world is not set up for fantastic guys anymore." "You can't trust anyone." " You trust me." " Because I love you." "These two are just arrogant clowns." "They're gonna do whatever they need, not what we need." "Okay, but can you just roll the film back to... to when you said that..." "That I love you?" "Yeah." "Sure." "But don't you think it's kind of a big word?" "I don't know." "I mean..." "Devyn died for your sister... literally died rather than hurt her, and he knew her for what, a week?" "The end of the world is making everything mean more, Dana." "You and me... we don't know how much time we're gonna have, but my bet is we're gonna spend all of it together." "So we're, like... married, then?" "Well, we're something." "Why don't we just leave it at that?" "Okay." "But if we're, like... you know, weirdly married..." "I would like to hold hands... or something." "Yeah, that can be arranged." "What are you doing?" "You're gonna shoot me with my own gun?" "I am walking into the wheel, not you!" "No, you're not." "No, you're not, and you're wasting time." "To do what... take evil from the world?" "You can't stop this shit." "All you can do is grab on to whatever happiness you have left." "And I want mine!" "I want my son back!" " Okay, okay." " If you do this... you will not find the results you seek." "A girl's got a dream." "You want to be next?" "No." "Good." "Here I go." "Okay, here's the shelter." "Steve, hang on." "Hey, hey, let me take that for you." "All right, thanks." "Yeah." "Everyone stay still!" " Hey, hey, hey, hey!" " Let her go!" "Put that thing down, now!" " Steve." " This is our thing now." "Put the gun down." "You go in there, you're gonna die." "It's all the same to me." "I'll see you around." "Don't!" "Don't!" "Don't make me do this!" "I just want my child back." "Stop it!" "I'm getting my son." "Jane..." "Jane..." "He lied to us!" "Nothing's happening." "Why can't I see my son?" "What the hell?" "What's happening?" "What the hell?" "What the hell?" " I'll kill her." " Oh, my God." "I'll kill her." "You're not strong enough to kill my sister, you dickhead!" "Guys, no guns." "No guns, no guns!" "Your dad's right." "Everyone put them down!" "Relax!" "Put your gun on the ground now." "Here we go." "What are you planning, Steve?" "Go get it." "Go get it!" "Steve!" "What's your plan?" "Your plan is shit, man!" "You guys go hide in those shelters if you want!" "We're taking your vehicle!" "Your plan doesn't work." "You have no time to get down this mountain." "I'd rather die running than hiding." "We'll all make it in the shelters." "We can still make it work." "Oh, did the monk tell you that?" " Everyone, relax!" " Just give us the keys, okay?" "Go and take the keys, you idiot." " Keys, all right." " Keys, please." "Are you kidding me?" "Anna, get back here!" "I'll go get them!" "Hey, hey, hey, hey." "Hey." "Just don't... don't worry about that." "Take a breath." "Okay, just put it down." "Put the gun down." "No." "Don't tell me what to do." "Hey, you're not killers." "You're climbers." "Martin, stop." "Just stop moving." "Just let her go." "You're not gonna shoot anyone." " Just stop moving." " Just let her go." " Let her go." " Stop moving." "You're not gonna stab anyone in the throat." "So..." "So let's just." "Martin!" " No!" " What did you do?" "!" "What the hell did you just do?" "!" "No!" "No!" "What the..." "Sorry!" "I'm so sorry!" "Steve..." " Give me your belt." " What?" " Give me your belt!" " Okay, okay, okay." "No!" " Let's go!" " Okay, I'm trying." "What are you doing?" "Come here." "Please, what are you doing?" "Please." "Please don't." "What are you doing?" "No!" "Steve..." "Please." "Please don't." "Just don't, please." "I'm sorry." " I'm sorr..." " Come with me." " What?" "Why?" " 'Cause I'm gonna hang you." "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "Steve!" "Steve!" "No!" "No!" "You don't have to do this." "You don't have to do this!" "Please!" "Please!" "Please." " Matt." " No, I'm not listening to you!" "I'm gonna get justice one freakin' time in this world!" "I'm so sorry." "Matt!" "Matt, if you kill her, her blood is on you!" "Please!" "Oh, please!" "That's not right!" "Matt, that had nothing to do with you!" "Matt!" "What do you want to do... forgive them?" "No, I want justice." "Get it... get it off my neck!" "Get it off." "Hey!" "Hey!" "On your knees." "You touch that, and I'll scalp you." "What are you gonna do, tough guy, huh... kill us?" "No, I'm not gonna kill you." "I'm not gonna wear your blood." "The volcano's gonna do it for me." "But you're not getting in the motor home, and you're not getting in the shelter with us." "You're gonna die under ten feet of liquid burning rock." "Get up." "Get up!" "She shot the guy!" "I didn't do anything!" "Put an ice pick to my daughter's head!" "You gave a gun to a fool!" "And that fool killed a good man, and that good man loved my daughter." "Now go!" "Go on!" "Is that fair?" "Yeah, that's fair." "Martin!" "I don't want to leave him here!" "We won't, little girl." " You can't just leave us here!" " We're human beings!" "Just miss them." "Leave them for the lava." "Go!" "Go, go!" "Up, down, left, right... it doesn't matter where you go!" "You're gonna die in burning rock!" "You're alive?" "How?" "How?" "How?" "How are you alive?" "How are you alive?" "Things happen." "I..." "I failed." "But your noble actions merit reward." "Look at me." "Come with me." "Where?" "To my next destination." "Life can't be sustained here any longer." "You realize that." "Will my family be there?" "I don't know." "But every other delight will be yours... security, rest, fulfillment." "I don't give up on my family." "Even if they're going to die?" "You don't know that." "And I'm gonna find out for myself." "That's a beautiful choice." "You really are coming along, you know that?" "You really are an asshole, you know that?" "I need more time." "Dad, we have to go now!" "Dana, Dana..." "Come on, Dana, give me your hand." "I don't want to leave him here." "I don't want to just leave him here." " Dana, Dana..." " Come on, Dana." "Come on, come on, get in!" "Come on, come on, get in!" "Get in!" "Where's Dana?" "Dad, you have to get in!" "Dad, get in!" "Dana!"
