and ended up a salesman.

You sound like my mother.

Good advice though.

Who knows? Maybe I will

consider a career in real estate,

or even becoming a wife

of a successful

entrepreneur.

Look at these birds.

Stop, don't touch it.

It may be infectious.

- Oh hi.

- Hi, mom.

- How are you?

- Good good.

- This is Rod.

- Hi, Rod.

- So nice to meet you.

- Likewise.

Come on in, you guys.

Good to see you, honey.

Come on in.

Rod, Nat tells me

that you are a very

successful salesman.

She did, huh?

I am very passionate

about my career.

So Nathalie tells me

you recently retired.

Yes, I did.

And she mentioned that you were

gonna take an early retirement.

Yeah, a few months.

Just taking a little break.

So are you enjoying

your retirement?

I love the retirement.

I was a jeweler

for 30 years.

And sometimes I miss not

going into the jewelry store.

But, you know,

I really like retirement.

I like to travel.

I like to cruise.

And I enjoy

watching television.

And my biggest thing

is I love to watch Nat

and work with her

in her modeling career.

Wow, Nathalie's a lucky person

to have such a loving mother.

Oh, thanks, Rod.

I appreciate that.

My big thing is to make sure

that she's happy

and successful in whatever

she chooses to do.

Thanks, mom.

Hello.

Here's your drinks.

- Thanks.

- Thank you.

Can I get you

anything else?

We're still looking at the menu.

Thank you.

- Hope you enjoy.

- Thanks.

I really enjoyed

meeting your mother.

She seemed

to really like you.

I was so lonely

until now.

So do you think

I'm that right lady?

Maybe.

Do you think

I'm the ideal man?

Perhaps.

You know, Rod,

I was just kidding

about the stock options,

shopping and money

and all that.

All I want is you.

Are you sure?

Definitely.

Guys are usually just

into me for my looks and sex.

But you're not

like that.

You're a real gentleman.

I feel like you

really respect me.

That means a lot to me.

I feel like I could be

with you for a long time.

Then I'm one lucky man.

I think my luck has changed

since I met you.

Really?

Why's that?

Last week the company N.C.T.

Software that I work for

was bought for $1 billion

by Oracle corporation.

And this week my start-up

company that I founded,

Mass Solar,

got funded $10 million

by Evergreen Capital.

Wow.

You said that might happen.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

that's a long time

Don't you owe me

some money?

I think somebody's calling me,

I've got to go...

You are forever

Thank you.

So?

What do you think?

You look divine.

Rod.

What is it?

I think they're eagles.

What in the world?

Battery is dead.

What's going on?

Can they get in?

Not for the moment.

Rod, they're breaking in

through the window.

Hurry, let's barricade it

with the bed.

Hurry!

That should hold 'em.

I think they're gone.

Well, do you know

why they stopped?

I don't know.

Maybe they got tired.

Why would birds do

something like that?

I mean, why would

they just attack?

I don't know.

Anybody in here?

Come on.

- Name's Rod.

- Ramsey.

- This is Nathalie.

- Nice to meet you.

- My girlfriend Becky.

- Hi.

- You guys okay?

- Yeah, we're all right.

- I guess.

- Man, those birds were attacking all night.

Then they just

suddenly stopped.

We'd try to drive away but

I can't find my car keys.

- I lost them somewhere.

- They were attacking us too.

We have a van outside.

- You guys are more than welcome to come.

- Yeah, come with us.

Thank you.

We need something

to protect ourselves.

Use these.

Here you go.

All right.

Let's all get our backs

to each other.

That we can see the birds

coming from every direction.

- Okay.

- Just like this.

All right, ready?

- Let's go.

- Let's go.

Here they come!

Open the door.

The door is stuck.

The door's stuck.

Hurry up.

I can't hurry up.

Damn birds

scratched me.

Becky, hand me a gun.

Rod, drive.

Here, Rod.

Take a pistol.

Let's go.

Hey, there's dead people

on the side of the road.

Let's go see

if there's any survivors.

Okay.

Becky, cover us.

I'll check out this car,

you check out the other.

Okay.

They're dead.

Come on, honey.

Come over here.

Come out from under the car.

Come on.

No, I don't want to come out.

The birds will bite me.

No they won't.

Come on.

I'll protect you,

I promise.

I'm scared.

They killed my mommy.

They killed my mommy.

It's the birds!

Help.

Help!

Let me out!

- Help!

- Run for it. Let's go.

Help!

Come on,

let's go.

Come on.

Come on!

- Let's go.

- Come on.

What's your name,

sweetie?

Susan.

We're gonna make this

feel all better.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Thank you.

- Oh, you want to play?

- Okay.

I'm hungry. I've been

under the car for a long time.

Yeah, me too.

I'm starving.

Hey, the kids

are getting hungry.

We should stop and get

some food for them.

And some for us too.

There's a convenience store

close by.

We'll stop there.

Becky, watch Tony while

he sleeps, okay?

I'll stand guard.

You go get food and water.

Okay.

You want to get

some candy?

Okay.

- Get some for Tony too.

- Okay.

Let's go, guys.

The eagles are coming.

Come on, guys.

Let's go.

The eagles are attacking.

Come on, let's go.

Hey, look. There's an old guy

on the bridge.

Hey, mister.

What the hell are you doing out here?

Hey hey!

Stand back!

These birds are contagious.

Now go away.

Hey, I thought I told

you to stand back.

These birds are

contaminated.

They have bird flu virus.

Now go away.

Could we just talk about it

at the picnic area?

You want to talk?

Okay.

All right.

We'll talk.

Guys, this is

Dr. Jones.

How do you do?

- Hi.

- Hi.

Sir, don't you know that

these birds are attacking people?

- These birds?

- Yes.

No way. They're dead

from the bird flu virus.

- Bird flu virus?

- How do you know this?

I just tested their blood.
