No!

God.

F***!

Ow!

God damn it!

Come on, baby, come on.

Come on.

All right, there it is.

There it is.

Forty-five.

.38 caliber.

Holy sh*t, it fits.

Come on!

Where is she?

Oh, she's fine.

I need to see the reel.

You put down your goddamn gun!

I need to see the film!

Okay.

F***.

Okay, okay, okay.

Ow!

By golly, I nailed him.

No, you...

Zoe?

- Zoe?

- Mick?

Mick, baby, I'm over here!

Sh*t.

Mick, he's in here.

Where is he?

Mick, help!

Mick! Mick!

Mick, Mick, Mick!

Jesus Christ.

We gotta get out

of here somewhere.

I know.

We have to get out of here.

Go! Go! Go, baby!

Go!

Ahh!

F***.

F*** you!

Get the f***...

F***!

Don't move!

Don't f***ing move!

Well, this is not

gonna end well for you.

I will shoot

that f***ing smile

off your

f***ing face, grandpa,

I swear to god, I will.

Go ahead, pull the trigger.

A lot of people have tried.

Shut up!

Put me out of my misery.

Go ahead, do it now!

By golly,

I wish this

could go on forever.

Zoe!

Mick.

Mick.

Behind you!

God... come here.

Oh, my god.

After four weeks

of investigation,

the FBI,

with the cooperation of

the local authorities,

using DNA evidence,

have positively linked

the deceased to

the three local homicides.

We have been unable to make

a positive identification

on the deceased.

We are currently

investigating those scenes

and his residence

for any other

pertinent evidence.

The investigation is ongoing,

but I can tell

you at this time

we cannot exclude

or confirm the DNA

of the now deceased suspect

as a match for

the zodiac killer.

After 40 years,

the earlier samples

are just unreliable.

I know there's a lot

of families out there

that are looking

for some closure,

but, uh, it's gonna

take a long, long time

before we know for sure.

I'll take your questions now.

- Sh*t. Hey.

- What? Mick?

What's wrong?

What is it?

No, baby.

It's just me just

being my clumsy self.

Have I been sleeping?

You've been

asleep for a long time.

Sorry.

It's okay, come here.

Come here.

Come sit with me.

It's going to be all right.

There you go.

Oh... yeah, look at us.

Hey, so,

frank came by today.

Yeah?

Yeah.

He offered me my

old job at the mill.

Even some extra hours

doing security.

Did you take it?

Hell, yeah, I did.

That's good.

Mm.

It's time to make

a real go of things, baby.

You mean the world to me.

What's wrong

with that light?

It's just... it's a light.

It's always like that.

You know,

it just needs a good kicking.

We gotta...

We should fix it.

I'll tell ya what,

I'm gonna go fix

it right now, okay?

No, no, no, please stay here.

Just please stay here.

Baby, baby, it's okay.

It's okay.

I got this, all right?

I don't want you to go.

I'll be back in a second,

okay?

Hey, I love you.

Just breathe.

Mick?

Mick?

Mick!

Mick?
