Welcome to Iceland.

Thirty minutes,

we'll be reaching...

You know that you used all

your savings for this trip?

Yeah.

I really wanna

help out so...

Just...

Yeah, I just thought...

-Nope, nope, no!

-Yeah!

-Oh, you didn't.

-I did.

It's in my mouth. It's in--

yup, yup, yup, yup!

So you think we're gonna

be able to find film?

We don't need to.

I brought a lot of film

before I came out here.

So we're okay.

Why won't you just let me

buy you that new camera?

I don't want a computer

autocorrecting everything.

I wanna capture

the moment.

You are a stubborn

son of a gun.

My dad would talk about

capturing the moment, okay?

Now I was never

very good at it.

Um, I mean sometimes i

kept a little piece of it.

It feels good because

you're capturing something

where everything is great.

There's nothing bad.

I mean, if there's an

imperfection, that's okay.

That's not bad.

this church was built

in the 18th century.

But man came here

long before it.

Fleeing the tyranny of

Harold the fairhair.

Harold the fairhair

of normandy.

Yeah, but later spread the

word of god to the healers.

What was life

like back then?

Well it was simple.

And the stories

were simple.

There's that mischievous

age of the warmhearted.

And the adventures of

inqua, the far traveler.

You heard about inqua?

-I have not.

-No.

Okay, okay.

And this is where early

parliament meetings were held.

This is

or long rock.

I think I just defiled the.

You-you did.

You defiled the.

No.

Nothing I missed

about churches.

What was your

dad's place like?

It was plain.

White walls,

beige carpets.

Felt more like an

office building than...

But this.

Baby, wake up.

-Mmm.

-Wake up!

Wake up, come on.

Let's go experience

Iceland.

It's getting late.

I'm hungry.

We can get some food.

I'm still on us time.

Well, there's only

one way out of that.

Get up.

No.

It's so bright in here.

There's supposed to be

continental breakfast.

Wanna do caf?

Yup.

Someone's asleep

at the wheel.

what time is it?

10:
30, I think.

Why?

Well it's just...

It's empty.

Is it like a holiday or...

I don't know. Maybe some

event or something.

Like the solstice.

That's a

celebration, right?

The summer solstice.

Okay.

Hello!

Hello?

I mean, wouldn't we have

heard some sort of an event.

Like seen a billboard

or something.

Hello!

We need to look inside.

Okay, where?

Anywhere. I-i-i...

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

There's nobody.

I called the restaurant

from last night

and there's no answer.

Riley.

Yeah?

I called my mom.

And?

She didn't answer.

what the hell is happening?

We walked through

half the city.

Where did everybody go?

It's like everybody

went on a lunch break.

City wide.

Is there a, uh...

A remote control.

There's gotta be coverage on

whatever the hell this is.

I mean, the TV's

still working.

Hey, mom, um...

It's been a super weird

day here and I just would

love to be able

to talk to you.

So if you can

give me a call.

The only channels that aren't

working are the news shows.

Riley, this is starting

to freak me out.

I know, I don't

get it at all.

If it were a plague,

where are all the bodies?

I mean, if it were aliens,

where are the ships?

I don't...

There's no

emails, no posts.

No activity anywhere.

Wait, what do you mean?

Hey, aims, um...

Call me when you get this.

I would love to

hear your voice.

No one's picking up.

Everyone should be up by now.

Nobody? No text messages,

no emails, nothing?

Nothing.

The Internet is

still working.

No, this is

from yesterday.

That hasn't been updated

since yesterday.

What is happening?

Nobody's picking

up their phones.

Voicemail's still working.

City's empty.

I mean, if it was an

Internet problem, we

wouldn't even be seeing

this stuff, right?

We need a vantage point.

We need a world view.

What is going on?

No.

No.

No.

No.

We're here, baby.

There's gotta

be other people.

There's gotta be

somebody, somewhere.

Let's go.

What the f***?

Hey, hello?

It's still in drive.

Is something happening?

What do you mean?

Is this it?

Is this the rapture?

You mean like

the apocalypse?

The end of times.

Try your mother again.

hello!

Hi, you've reached

Sharon's cellphone.

I'm not available to take your

call right now, but if you'd--

voicemail.

I wanna say that everybody

just went to the east side

of the island.

And I wanna say that your

mom just went shopping and

she forgot her

phone at home.

Same as your dad and

Amy and everybody else.

I wanna say this is

the second coming.

I wanna say this is the

longest nightmare that I

have ever had.

But I just...

I don't know

what happened.

Atleast...

Atleast we're

here together.

Can you please

close the blinds?

Where did you all go?

I wanna go to sleep.

I'm exhausted and the sun

won't quit so can you

please close the blinds?

Yeah, baby.

Come on, baby.

It's time to wake up.

Not yet.

You gotta eat

something, I mean.

Let's go make

some breakfast.

No.

How are we gonna get home?

How are we getting

off this island?

I don't know yet.

I mean, do you think

we were selected?

That we should be

preparing for something?

No, baby, we're not

selected, okay?

This is not divine

intervention.

I don't know.

I don't know if

this is an epidemic.

I don't know if it's some sort

of nordic relocation program.

I don't know why we're here

and everybody else isn't.

But I do know that

doesn't matter.

What matters, what we

should be asking ourselves

is what do we do about it?

Like what do we do now?

I just wanna get home.

I know.

If there's even a...

A home to get back to.

baby, guess what?

There's still room service

and it's just for you.

Gingerbread latte.

Is it that bad?

There's still too

much ginger bread.

Hm.

I overdid it.

-Thank you.

-Mhm.

Gotta do better than that.

Ah!

I'll be right back.

This isn't all gonna

fit in the fridge.

I know, I've been

thinking about that.

Sit tight.

It's time to

upgrade, baby.

Upgrade what?

Everything.

hello?

We didn't even knock.

Yeah, well we don't need to

because this is our place now.

That's nice.

Just like that?

Just like that.

Why are the

lights still on?

The geothermal plants,

they're all automated here

so they'll just keep the country

running for a little while.

Until it breaks down.

No.

But yeah, until then, the

world just keeps on turning.

You done yet?

Which color?

Yes.

Why do I need these red gloves?

What do you think?

Whoa!

You're like a

Mexican ninja.

What are you doing?

Oh, no.

here, here.

To many!

Don't puke!

You're gonna puke!

What is it saying?

What is this word language?

Borg...

I just burped.

Borg...

Corona's a thousand.

Give me a

thousand coronas.

I won a beauty

content makes sense.

You wanted to

be the banker.

That's 20,000.

-Thank you.

-Okay.

Woo.

What is that?

Bullshit.

This is mine.

You're taking the whole...

This is a death strip.

And I'm supposed to be
