Would you rather stay up here?

Come on!

Oh... oh.

You okay?

I'm okay, dad.

Yeah, yeah.

We're okay.

We'll work our way out.

Come on.

Nelson's okay.

We're good.

The sun

is breaking through.

Come on.

Easy, easy.

You okay?

You all right?

You're bleeding.

It's okay. It's okay.

It's just a cut.

Come on.

Get Nelson.

Come on, sweetie.

Nelson?

You okay?

Baby, you all right?

Okay. Broken bones?

No.

Anything?

Okay.

All right, guys, okay.

Good job.

I love you so much.

It's gonna be all right.

You all right?

- Yeah, I'm fine, dad.

- Good job.

Okay, let's get moving.

Let's go.

We got to get away

from the car.

Keep going. Come on.

We need to find

another car.

See if that van works.

Okay, guys, come on.

Come on.

So cold.

There's no one here.

Okay, guys, get in.

Get in, honey.

Look for some keys.

I'm gonna check this out.

I'll be right back.

It's so cold.

Where's dad going?

I don't know.

He'll be back.

Give me your hands.

Hello? Hello?

Where's dad?

I don't know.

He'll be back, though, honey.

Mom, the keys are in the ignition.

Oh, good.

Let's start it.

Come on.

Try again.

Yes!

Okay, good.

It's a mess in here.

Smells like sh*t.

Oh, good.

You got it running.

Yeah.

Okay, bad news.

There's a big pileup.

We gotta find a way...

What's that smell?

I think it's manure

or something.

It smells awful.

Manure?

Like fertilizer?

Yeah.

What kind?

I don't know.

What're you doing, honey?

Just a little

science project.

Excellent.

Okay.

I'll be right back.

Where'd he go?

What was that?

I don't know.

I hope dad comes back soon.

Okay, inside. Go.

Okay, heads down.

Heads down.

Here we go. Heads down.

Okay, why?

Just a little science experiment.

What kinda science experiment, Bill?

The kind that goes boom.

See, when you take

ammonium nitrate...

and you had a little bit

of diesel fuel, you get...

Whoa!

Dad, where'd you learn

to do that?

In science class.

Oh, god, Bill.

I have phone reception,

I think.

I do. I have

phone reception.

Pull over.

Pull over right now!

Mom got a reception?

Yeah.

Well?

Mom, dad, it's Julia.

It's Julia.

Where we going to go?

Mom, dad,

we're not staying here.

Nelson, get on

the shortwave.

The dorms aren't safe.

I'll give you a call...

Something bad

has hit her dorm.

What happened?

I don't know.

I'm playing it again.

Mom, dad, it's Julia.

We're not safe...

Something's hit the dorm really bad

and she's trying to get out.

We're not staying here.

The dorms aren't safe.

She's saying she cannot

get out of New York city.

What the heck was that?

It's a sonic boom.

They're gonna go bomb

the glacier.

Can they do that?

Can they bomb a glacier, Bill?

Yeah, they could do that,

but they'd need to hit it

with a nuclear bomb...

to stop this thing.

That's what they're doing.

They said Boston's

gonna be hit next...

If they don't stop it.

Boston?

We have gotta get

to New York City right now.

We gotta get out of here.

Oscar Charlie and Delta X-Ray

approaching target.

Roger, Oscar Charlie.

Ordering nuclear

payload active.

Nukes are hot,

waiting for countdown.

My son was born in Boston,

so let's melt this ice.

Roger that. Fire one!

Oscar Charlie,

do you have a visual?

Checking now.

Command 483.

Nukes deployed,

but they have no visual effect.

Waiting on next command.

Everyone looks so scared.

Why are we stopping?

Look, we got this big empty van,

all these people need help.

I figure, you know,

we'll open up a door...

Our daughter's in New York.

We need to get her,

and she is our priority.

She's our top priority,

and we're on our way to New York.

I figure we can have

a couple people...

ride with us

to New York.

It'll take two minutes...

No! Two minutes?

Yeah, two minutes.

Honey, we just can't

leave people out there.

Honey?

Mom, dad...

hear that?

Everybody okay?

I don't hear anything.

I think we made it.

Let's keep going.

What happened?

Boston's been hit!

The glacier's less than an hour from us!

It's headed right for us!

It's too late.

We have to tell my parents not to come.

All the circuits

are busy.

No surprise there.

Keep it on.

We'll try again later.

We got to keep moving.

Come on.

Babe, I know where we are.

We could take a tunnel.

We tried them all.

They're closed!

Trust me!

Go, go. Hurry.

Hurry! Be careful.

Careful.

We used to go this way

when we were, like, 12.

Just need to find a light.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

We really have to go down there?

Yeah.

It's safer than up there.

Oh, god. What if my parents

try to make it to New York?

They're going to get

your message.

Yeah, but what if...

They'll get the message.

Hey, guys, we're gonna need

to find some gas soon.

I can log on and find us

a gas station.

I don't think

that's gonna happen, honey.

Power grid is down, buddy.

That means no Wi-Fi,

no gas stations.

I'm really hungry.

We just need to find him

some food...

and let's find some gas.

All right?

Let's just start looking

for something.

Dad, look!

You can siphon gas.

Great idea.

Okay, guys,

let's start looking for cars,

Hopefully filled with food.

Hang in there, Nelson.

We're almost in New York, okay?

Slow down,

slow down, Bill.

I think I see some cars

in the distance.

It's just so creepy...

when it gets dark

in the middle of the day.

Honey, just get what we need

and get back.

Be careful.

Hold on, hold on,

hold on, hold on.

Wait, wait, wait.

We don't know if

anyone's in there.

Just stay there.

Why?

Just stay there.

All right.

What is it?

Don't worry about it.

Okay.

I can do this.

I got this.

All right.

I'm gonna go pee.

Okay.

I'm glad that was you

and not me.

Yeah, me, too.

It's working.

That is some strong stuff.

Whew!

Hey, we're in Connecticut.

Honey?

I'm not stopping.

It's pitch black.

Hey, Nelson,

have you been able...

to pull up anything

on the GPS?

Not really.

Are you kidding me?

What?

Hand 'em over.

Unbelievable.

You got anything else

back there, chef Nelson?

Oh, man!

I was gonna tell you guys.

Yeah, sure you were.

Dinner?

Thanks.

Thank you, honey.

Nelson, how much longer

to New York?

About two hours.

You think she's still

at the dorm?

I'm sure

your sister's fine.

She's a smart girl and she

can take care of herself.

It's this way.

You sure we're going

the right way?

I mean, you haven't been

down here in 10 years.

You have to calm down

and trust me, okay?

It's the only way,

Julia.

It feels like we're

going deeper, though.

What was that?

Oh, god, I don't know.

Whatever it is,

it doesn't sound good.

Come on.

Wow. It sounds like

it's getting worse.

Come on.

Let's keep moving.

Dad, I got a frequency.

Go Henry. 11-41 and 44th

and... intersection.

AJ4-LB.

Turn to channel 3

for further details.

Copy that.

Thank you.

You okay? Do you

want me to drive?

You know,

i didn't say goodbye.

She got out of the car

And I didn't even

know it.

We're almost to New York,
