Alive Page #2

My legs!

God forgive you all

for not helping me! I'm in agony!

Shut up! Shut up, you stupid cow,

or I'll punch your face in!

I swear to God, I will! Shut up!

- God, it's cold! It's too cold!

- Antonio!

It's too cold.

We're going to freeze.

Roy! Come on, Roy.

We've got to stuff up this hole.

Come on, or we'll freeze to death!

- With what?

- Luggage and stuff.

- I'm so cold.

- Grab a suitcase.

- What are you doing?

- You too.

- I'm freezing!

- We've got to stuff up this hole.

Help me with this seat, Rafael.

Put it on the bottom

with the suitcases. Give me a hand.

Carlitos?

- Are you awake?

- Are you serious?

Know what I think?

I think Nando's not so bad.

- I don't know.

- Let's keep him warm between us.

Be careful with his head.

Move him over.

Blanket.

- Hugo's trying to revive Nando.

- Look, I've done enough!

I hate these idiots. Shut up

or I'll hate you too! Leave me alone.

I feel sick to my stomach.

Here. Try and sleep, Javier.

It's just altitude sickness.

Don't be scared.

Thanks.

- Well, we have cigarettes.

- Yeah.

How will they find us?

They must know about where we went

down. Don't worry, they'll find us.

What happened?

You knocked your head.

- We crashed?

- Yeah.

Unbelievable.

He's dead. Help me move him out.

- He's dead?

- Yeah.

Help move him to the back. We have

to keep these out of the cabin.

Come on, Carlitos, help me.

- How are you, Susana?

- My feet hurt.

Anybody with a broken arm or leg

should go and lay it in the snow.

It'll help the swelling go down.

They've gotten cold.

- How's that?

- Thank you.

- What's the story in here?

- They're both dead.

You're the mechanic, right?

- Do you have any signal flares?

- No.

- Emergency supplies?

- No. Nothing like that.

- What's wrong with him?

- What's wrong with you?

What about the radio?

- What about the radio?

- Can it be made to work?

Not without batteries!

Well, are there batteries?

The batteries are in the taiI,

and the tails gone!

He's crazy. Anyway,

it doesn't matter about the radio.

They'll find us

with or without a radio.

- Are you sure?

- I haven't a doubt in my mind.

Who's that?

The woman who was screaming

all night, Mrs Alfonsin.

- Don't tell me it's her.

- What's the matter?

I yelled at her,

told her to shut up.

- We all wanted to, Carlitos.

- But I did. Now she's dead.

I'm so ashamed.

- God forgive me!

- Take it easy.

Our Father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done,

on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread,

and forgive us our trespasses

as we forgive those

who trespass against us.

Lead us not into temptation

but deliver us from eviI. Amen.

Chocolate peanuts,

small chocolate bars,

four bottles of wine, half bottle

of rum and nine crackers.

- How many of us?

- Twenty-seven.

- We're gonna starve.

- Look...

This weather can't last. There'll

be helicopters coming this afternoon.

But we'll be careful

and ration what we have.

I like a big lunch.

One capful of wine,

one square of chocolate each.

- I prefer a big lunch to dinner.

- Come on. Form a line.

Careful.

Thank you

for the teeny chocolate piece.

You're welcome.

- Fill this. It's not for me.

- Who for?

- Nando.

- He's unconscious.

- He still gets a share.

- Give it to him.

The king is generous today.

Lift up his head.

- He looks better.

- Yeah. He looks fabulous.

- Thank God we have cigarettes.

- Thousands.

I could smoke till my brain dries up.

What's that?

It's an aeroplane!

It's the search party!

If we can't see them,

they can't see us.

- What is that you're humming?

- The Look of Love.

How beautiful.

I'm thinking about our children.

Me too. Home.

There's one of these

inside the back of each chair. Snow.

- It'll melt and make water.

- You're a genius!

This is terrific. Make more of these.

I'll mark off a square where no one's

to piss. Daniel, come help me.

- Antonio has dictator potential.

- No comment.

- Coche?

- Yeah?

- Play Flight of the Bumble Bee.

- F*** you.

To be fair to this dilemma,

it is a beautiful spot.

Not a tree, not a bird,

not a blade of grass.

Yeah, paradise.

- Can you help? There's things to do.

- Stuff it, Roy!

I'll pay for the pizza

if you get it.

- How are you doing?

- Let me sleep.

- What?

- Canessa, look at Nando.

I think he's all right.

I think he's waking up.

See? I told you.

Don't grind your teeth,

you'll ruin your smile.

Focus on me. Come on.

Focus on me. Focus on me.

He knows you!

What happened?

We crashed.

My mother?

She's dead.

Listen! Forget her!

Your sister's alive and she needs you

to take care of her.

- Where is she?

- You need to rest.

Where is she? Where is she?

I'm here now.

There's a plane! Come on!

- Can they see us?

- Of course they can!

Here we are!

He dipped his wings!

- The wings did dip! I saw it!

- You saw it too?

I knew they would find us! I knew it!

We're saved!

We're going home!

Pizza for everybody!

We're going home, Federico!

- How are you guys doing?

- Fine.

Good. Drink some of this.

- What about the rationing?

- We've been seen. Drink.

- Antonio's asleep.

- Roy's asleep too.

He even sleeps to Antonio's beat.

He's like his dog.

Carlitos, pass the piss pot.

- How will they save us?

- Helicopters.

- A big plane.

- There's no place to land.

- We landed.

- Yeah, right! We landed like that.

- What is that?

- Chocolate.

- It's only got to last a day.

- He's right. Give me a piece.

Should you be doing that?

Why not? It's over.

They're coming in the morning.

We should wait till we see them.

- How are you feeling?

- Not bad. Time to eat?

Yeah.

- Where are they?

- They're coming.

It's gonna be dark soon.

- What the hell is this?!

- What's the matter?

Am I losing my mind?

I must be losing my mind.

Who has been in this box?

What pig has been in this box?

Don't you know that you're playing

with our lives?

There's virtually nothing left!

Why didn't you take a knife

and slit our throats while we slept?

Who was it?

- Who was it?

- It was me.

I can't believe it!

- I thought they were picking us up.

- It could be a land rescue!

They may have to come here on foot!

It could take days, a week!

We have nothing to eat!

We're trapped!

I know, but I thought

they were coming this morning.

Who are you to risk my life?

- Who are you against us?

- It wasn't just him. I did it too.

- Me, too.

- I drank wine.

I ate chocolate.

Everyone did except

for maybe Javier and Lilliana.

- I only didn't because I'm nauseous.

- Not to me!

Am I the leader of this group?

- I don't know. Are you?

- I'm the captain of the team.

Is this still a team or a bunch

of cut-throats after each other?

Answer me!

- Shall we take a vote?

- We don't need to. You're leader.

Answer me this, Antonio. If they

saw us, even if it is a land rescue,

why haven't they dropped supplies?

They could have done that.

They would have done that by now.
