Bering Sea Beast Page #4

- What if he's playing possum?

I mean, the gas didn't last

very long, remember?

Let's get to Megan's lab.

It's really close to here.

Maybe she's figured something out

about these things. Come on.

Wow, it has soft tissue on

the underside of its fins.

Yeah, that's right

where its teeth are.

Well, it's a soft spot, though

less than ideal place to attack.

- What's going on?

- Whoa. I think we pissed it off. Back up.

Back up. Back up. Back up.

Oh, no, no, no.

Go, go, go!

Go, go, go. It got loose.

We need to stay on dry land.

Look, they're coming this way.

We gotta get out of here.

- We gotta move, you guys.

- We're sitting ducks out here.

- Come on, come on!

- Come on!

- Faster, they're gaining on us.

- Run faster.

Come on.

Come here, come here.

Over here, over here.

Go under there. Go. Here, come on,

let's go under here. Come on.

- All right.

- Come on.

They're a triple threat, able to

hunt on land, sea, and in air.

You realize we are the

things they're hunting?

Well, they can't help it.

To them, we're just blood bags.

- Joe!

- I got this.

- No, you don't. Stop it.

- Joe!

- Joe.

- Get back.

- Joe, get back here.

- I got this.

Go, go, go.

Here.

Here.

Here. Here. Here.

Right here, right here.

- Duck down. Duck.

- Communal hunting.

They're working

together to trap us.

Well, I refuse to get

outsmarted by these things.

Owen, where are you going?

- Guys, go. Go, go!

- Come on, let's go!

What the hell's going

on out here, huh?

- Huh?

- Calm down, man. Just calm down.

- What's going on?

- Calm down.

We don't mean any harm.

Calm down. Just calm down.

- What's going on? What you looking at?

- Calm down.

Ugh!

- They're not so hard to kill after all.

- Its engorged state made it vulnerable.

Oh, come on. Dead is dead.

You got lucky. It was a

one-in-a-million shot.

Oh, here we go again.

Any ideas, guys?

Bet you wish we killed them

when we had the chance.

- Quick thinking.

- Managed to kill one.

It's where the blood came

from. Sorry I missed it.

Well, there's more.

Let's get to my lab.

- Any chance I'm dreaming?

- Feel that?

- Damn.

- Maybe we scared them off.

- I have a theory.

- Hey, another theory?

Skin can't handle extensive sun exposure

outside the protection of the water.

Would explain why they

only appeared after dark.

- Like real vampires.

- There are no such thing.

- After today, I wouldn't be so sure.

- The flash.

- The flash.

- The flash.

- The flash is what stunned the infant.

- They would have sensitivity to light.

Shocked the nervous

system, caused a seizure.

- Can we use that to our advantage?

- Let's turn the tables. Hunt them. Go.

- Let's do that.

- Let's go.

All right, guys,

you know what to do.

All right, let's get going.

Come on, go.

He knows what he's doing, right?

With the charges? He knows?

All right, I'm going in.

- Hand me the charges.

- You got it.

Got it.

- Got that one. Another one. Thanks.

- All right.

- I got them set.

- All right. Let's go.

What was that?

What is what?

Good God.

Go. Go! Get going!

Oh, my God.

Sea vampires.

What do we do now?

Well, obviously that didn't work.

We've got to regroup,

come up with a plan B.

I think I got some ideas.

Weather service has

issued a storm warning

for all of the mid and southern

coastal areas of Alaska.

Warnings for south, St. Matthews and

Nunivak are at life-threatening levels.

Preparations are made

for rescue operations,

expected to be in epic proportions.

Everyone is advised to

prepare for the worst,

and listen for

emergency broadcasts.

Storm to the south is preventing

anyone from getting to us.

We're on our own for 48 hours.

I suggest we sit tight, stay off

the water and away from the beach.

I'm not sitting tight. Those

things killed my father.

- Don't make it personal.

- This is beyond personal.

Those creatures are simply doing

what they were born to do.

Breed and feed, it's primal

instinct, survival of the fittest.

You invaded their turf.

They're defending it.

You're saying we started this?

No, I'm saying that up until now, they

were feeding off of one thing: seals.

Your diver came, they got a taste of human

blood, now they're thirsty for more.

We only have five days until this claim

is off-limits and it's Thorne's claim.

I intend on taking full

advantage of them.

Is it worth risking your life for?

- Dredging is my life. Joe, Owen.

- She's right.

It's a mistake to go

against Mother Nature.

I mean, she always bats last and

she always bats a thousand.

Are we supposed to just sit here and wait

for the cavalry to ride in and save us?

Father taught us not taking matters into

your hands is how you get taken down.

And who's to say that the

Coast Guard can do any more?

Right now, if anything, we are

the sea vampires experts.

I never agree with my sister, but I'm not

letting anything take us off the gold.

I really wish you would listen to me.

What you all are doing is suicide.

Thank you, but I'm not

asking your permission.

Come on, Joe, let's go.

I'll meet you at The Black Drum. There's

something I have to take care of.

Back so soon.

You settled one debt.

Wouldn't think you'd be so eager to

get behind the eight ball again.

My father's dead,

which makes me 50 percent

owner of The Black Drum.

Yeah? My condolences.

Don't pretend to care.

Okay.

- What is it that you want from me?

- A promise.

Half my stake in future

profits from The Black Drum.

Nice of you to be so

generous to yourself.

Quote me and I'll

deny I ever said it.

But you and I both know my

sister's the best dredger.

Her haul is better than

mine or anyone else's.

And what do you want in return?

All my debts paid in full,

and you and your men help

us with our little problem.

You hear that? Heh.

Boy thinks he can quit cold turkey.

Son, you live for this action.

You're gonna be back in here

making your bad bets in no time.

- Well, that's my problem.

- Until it becomes my problem.

- Then don't take my action anymore.

- Well, that right there, that's just...

That's not in my nature.

You have five seconds to

take the deal or it's off.

I don't want half of your action.

I want half your boat.

No way in hell.

Then you're right back

where you started,

on your own and in over your head.

Guess it's better to go

with the devil you know.

Half my boat.

Half the boat.

Well, at least something's

gone our way.

Where is my brother?

He's never on time.

We finally have one thing

in our favor:
storm's gone.

Now, do you wanna hear my plan B?

Uh, yeah, sure. What?

We're gonna put a net at

the back of the harbor.

Shrimp boat's gonna come

in, pulling the net over.

We're gonna trap them so

that nobody's gonna get out.

We'll bring the lights in.

Lights...

Where have you been? Excuse me.

I need a second with my brother.

We could use as much help as we could

get, regardless of the source.

- What did you do?

- What I had to do.
