Though I wouldn't mind

trying to get him to.

[Jack]

Pack that on this side.

[Milly] I'm in the back?

Come on.

[Milly]

What am I, the dog?

Don't answer that.

[soft clank]

[Jack]

Got everything you need?

[vehicle starts]

All right.

[Mason] You all right

back there?

[Milly] The storm's closing in

on the south ridge at 20 knots.

[Jack] Come on, Gary,

let's go.

Otherwise we're gonna

lose the signal.

[Jia] It's so barren.

It's amazing, isn't it?

How nature always finds a way

to survive.

[Milly]

The storm's holding for now,

but the signal's getting weaker.

[thunder crashes]

[Milly] There's gonna be

a lot of electrical discharge.

We need to stay ahead

of this monster.

[engine revs]

- [Chen] Not far now.

- Look out!

[Milly]

What are they?

[Jack] Keep an eye

on that storm.

[Milly] Okay, got it.

[Jia]

What's that smell?

[Jack]

Hydrogen sulfide.

This area is dotted

with old coal mines.

Gas is probably escaping

from underground.

- [hissing]

- Ohh!

[Mason] Jeez.

There's nothing inside,

but there's puncture wounds

all over the body.

Looks like some kind of bite.

No?

Don't know what you're missing.

Type 2 diabetes.

- Oh, my God. Jack!

- [Jack] Yeah?

- [Mason] My God.

- I can see it.

- Look at the size of it!

- Get to the jeep!

To the jeep! Jia!

[thunder crackling]

[wind howling]

We have to go!

Get in!

Go on, Gary!

- What's happening?

- It's a firestorm

from the coal mine.

It only takes a spark.

You hit a gas pocket

the wrong place...

- boom! Fourth of July.

- [Mason] Go, Gary!

- Come on, let's go!

- The wheels are just spinning!

Drive. Drive!

Chen, get out!

Gary, get out here!

I'm the driver.

Why am I pushing?

Push! Push!

- Okay!

- Gary, let's go!

- Get in!

- Hurry up!

- Move! Move!

- Drive, Jia!

[Gary]

Why is she driving?

- Where do I go?

- There's an abandoned mine

less than a mile ahead.

There may still be buildings

there we can shelter in.

[Jack]

If they're still standing.

[Gary] Good luck

finding 'em in this.

[Milly] Be careful.

[Gary] Get back on the road!

[Milly]

It's a monster.

[Milly]

We're never gonna make it.

[Gary] The rocks!

- [Gary shouting]

- Go, go, go!

Mason, go!

Gary, get into the house!

Come on!

- Milly, come on!

- [Milly squeals]

[Jack] Everyone inside!

[Mason] Aaah!

[all coughing]

Get the curtains

off the windows.

Shut those windows.

- Ow.

- Anybody here?

[Jack]

Jia. Here, take this.

Drink slowly.

- [Milly] Hello!

- [Chen] Hello, anyone here?

Good.

You do what I say

when I say it.

[coughing]

Got you.

Thanks.

Is that thing sanitized?

Don't be a baby.

[beeps]

Never should have come.

Now eight us will die out

here, instead of two.

You knew what you were

getting into, huh?

- Everybody listen to me.

- [thunder crashes]

With a burn this intense,

the radiant heat will kill us

way before any flame does.

There must be something

underground.

A storm cellar.

Let me take a look.

What about Luke and Ethan?

They're on their own

until the storm passes.

Right now we need

to take care of ourselves.

So for now,

this rescue mission's over.

[Jia]

Is that a fact?

The mission might be over

for you, but not for me.

Ridley, there's something here.

Mason.

[Chen] Why haven't we

seen any people?

[hinges creak]

[Chen] Mason.

I know it's not my place,

but what was Luke looking for?

You're right.

It's not your place.

[loud whoosh]

What?

I was just trying

to comfort you.

[thunder crashes]

I-I should go with her.

Just to, um...

just to keep her safe.

[clatter]

[speaking Chinese]

[gasps]

[speaking Chinese]

Yin.

[thunder crashes]

Chen.

[speaking Chinese]

[squelching]

Chen, we better

get out of here. Now.

Now! Let's go! Trust me!

Chen. We gotta go right now.

Come on.

Come on, trust me.

Huh?!

- Aaah!

- Chen!

Let's get out of here! Come on!

Come on, I've got you!

Let's go! Let's go!

[Milly] What happened?

- Jia!

- Chen.

[Jack]

Is everything all right?

What happened?

This is a funnel-web bite.

As in funnel-web... spiders?

As in funnel-web giraffe.

You could be wrong.

It's not like you're an expert.

Actually, she is.

I don't like spiders, okay?

Wait. Funnel-webs are only found

in Australia.

What are they doing here?

[Chen groaning]

Chen. Breathe slow.

Panic only pumps the poison

faster through your blood.

You are a first-responder,

right? So respond.

You know the pressure

immobilization technique?

- Of course.

- Do it.

It's ineffective

with a torso bite.

[Milly] Jia, no!

Aah!

Let me lean you up, okay?

We need to keep you elevated.

His pulse is dropping.

[speaking Chinese]

[Jia] Open the door!

- How's he doing?

- Not good.

Jack, out back there's

a storeroom with a trap door.

Gary, come here.

Show me.

Watch Chen.

We got five minutes max

before this place goes up

in flames.

You'll be all right, Chen.

Hang in there, mate.

[Jia] Hold him down.

[Mason] You're gonna be okay,

buddy.

This is gonna make you sick.

So sick you want to die.

[whimpering]

Aaaah!

It's locked.

We gotta get it open.

Look for something.

- The storm's getting closer.

- I know.

If you and I survive this,

we should get a drink.

Fertilizer, fuel oil...

Not the kind of cocktail

I have in mind.

[Chen groaning]

What's happening?

Why isn't it working?

But that doesn't make any sense.

I gave him enough.

A double dose would kill him.

He's already dying.

Aaaah!

[thunder crashes]

We're running out of time.

All right.

Can you lift that up for me?

You should run now.

- Very creative.

- Go!

- Oh.

- It's gonna blow!

Aah!

- [Gary] What the hell was that?!

- We have a way out.

Pick Chen up.

- Yin! Yin!

- Gotta hurry!

[Jia speaking Chinese]

Let's go! Come on!

[Jack] We're all safe.

We're all safe.

Come here. Up you go.

I got you.

Don't touch the line.

The funnel-webs

react to vibration in the silk.

To them,

it means feeding time.

Feeding time?

Awesome.

Made it!

I don't think

this is a very good plan.

- Come on!

- Go!

Roof ain't gonna hold

much longer.

[Gary] Relax. I'm coming.

[speaking Chinese]

[Jack] Come on.

Everybody's gonna be okay.

I got you. Good girl.

Everyone spread out.

Mason! Milly! Hurry.

Come this way.

Come on.

[thunder crashes]

[Milly]

Be careful.

[chittering]

- Move it!

- Aaah!

[Jack]

Milly, watch out!

Ohh! Ow!

- [Milly groaning]

- [Mason] Milly!

[Gary] They kill you

in the walls!

[Mason]

Milly, watch out!

Milly!

Ohh! Aaah!

[screaming]

Aah! Milly,

get away from the wall!

I got you! Come on!

- Guys! On the stairs.

- I see 'em! I see 'em!

- Ridley!

- I see it.

- [shouting]

- [chittering]

Aaaah!

I hate spiders!

[all coughing]

[Jack]

Is everyone all right?

[Mason]

What is this place?

Looks like a cave system.

No, it looks like a place

where spiders come from.

- Milly.

- Where's my pack?

Do you have a tourniquet

in there?

- Stay down.

- Wrap this around here.

[Milly whimpering]
