Day of the Dead
- Nothin', nothin' at all.
- Send it again.
I've been sendin' it up and down the
coast from Sarasota to the everglades.
It's still getting back
the same day it aired.
There's nothing. There's nobody,
or at least nobody with a radio.
All right then. Let's set
down. We'll use the bullhorn.
Set down? Wait a minute.
That's not in our contract.
It's the biggest city within 150
miles. We're gonna give it every chance.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
Set down, John.
I'll set us down, but I won't leave my
seat, and Ill keep the engine running.
Now, the first sign
of trouble, Im going up.
If you ain't on board when that happens,
you're likely to have a lousy afternoon.
Calling anybody
on this frequency.
This is
helicopter 4-0-alpha.
If you can hear me,
please listen carefully.
Hello?
Hello?
Is anyone there?
Hello?
Hello?
Is anyone there?
Hello?
Is anyone there?
Is anyone there?
Hello?
Is there anyone there?
Hello?
Hello?
Hello?
Is anyone there?
Hello?
We can lift you out to safety. Please
answer my call if you can hear me.
Forget it, Billy boy.
It's a dead place.
They got the others,
you know.
Listen.
You can hear it
over the engine.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph.
Hey, you find anything?
Yeah. A bunch of real estate
for sale at closeout prices, man.
Gas up the machine.
She's down to fumes.
No. Wait till it's dark. There
are too many of them out there.
Yeah-hey, it's no good to
leave the gas tank empty.
- Suppose we need to get out of here in a hurry.
- Then we're sh*t out of luck.
They're getting too riled up. Do
it tonight when they can't see you.
They know we're in here even if they can't see
us. What good is it to leave the gas tank emp...
the activity excites them. There are too
many of them. And more and more every day.
If we get a lot more, come out and shoot
some. Otherwise, stay inside the building.
Stay out of sight. Be thankful
you live in the suburbs, Johnson.
You oughta see how congested
the city's gettin' to be.
Miguel, come on.
Let's get below.
Miguel, what can I
do? You... you... what?
Let me help. No. I... I don't
need help. I don't need help.
Come on. Give me this. I'm
all right. I'm just tired.
You're not. You're collapsing from stress.
Now, let me help... collapsing from stress?
We're all collapsing. This whole
f***ing unit is collapsing...
everybody except you.
I know you're strong,
all right? So what?
Stronger than me. Stronger
than everyone. So what?
So f***ing what?
- That's a new grave.
- Major cooper. He died this morning.
And then there were 12.
A burial this morning. That's
why there are so many of them.
What's gonna bring them tomorrow, Sarah?
And the next day and the next day after?
There are hundreds of 'em over
there, thousands. A million of them!
You stick your head in the sun, they're gonna
come up behind you and bite off your ass!
This is bullshit. Crazy. If you've got an
alternative, we'd be happy to listen to it.
I got an alternative. Yeah,
yeah. I got an alternative.
Let's get in that whirlybird, find us
an island someplace, get juiced up...
and spend what time we got left
soakin' up some sunshine.
How's that? You could
do that, couldn't you?
With all that's going on, you could
do that without a second thought?
Right. I could do that even
if all this wasn't goin' on.
Another waste of time,
right? Got that right, man.
What'd you find?
Nothin'.
Nothin'? How far
up the coast did you go?
Jump in here, soldier. We gotta bring
in two more dumb fucks. Let's go.
- Two more? What's Logan doing to them in there?
- Get in here.
He's been awake for 24 hours.
Can't you get anyone else?
What "anyone else"? There
isn't anyone else. We're it.
The two of you can't go in
there alone. It's too dangerous.
Christ. I'll go!
- What's the matter with your friend there?
- There's nothing the matter.
All right. Let's go.
You got it, Steel.
Let's kick it out.
Come on. Step forward.
This shows the 15th as the
last time you took any out.
That can't be right. Oh, yeah. We
forget to write 'em up sometimes.
You've got to write them up.
It's essential.
Can't you get that
through your thick skull?
How the hell are we supposed to
keep track of how many we got left?
Let's go, you dumb fucks!
Get over here!
Hey! Here we are!
Come on!
Come on, you dumb fucks.
Come on. Come on.
- Come on, you fish brains. What
the hell's the matter with ya?
They're scared.
They know what'll happen
when Frankenstein gets 'em.
If you're right, Rickles,
then they're learning.
They're actually learning. Come on!
Come and see what I got for
you! Come on, you dick faces!
Here's a nice one hangin'.
Come on. Come and get it.
- Come and try to bite it off!
- That's it. Whip it out. That'll bring 'em on.
F***in' "a. " Biggest
piece of meat in the cave.
though. Not with her boyfriend around.
You're incapable of exciting me, Steel,
except as an anthropological curiosity.
- What the hell's that mean, Rickles?
- It means you're a caveman.
You're a f***in' throwback. You've been
spendin' too much time underground, huh?
It's okay, Steel.
Throwbacks all got big d*cks.
Oh!
All right, you dumb fucks!
Get over here, you scumbags!
Your old pal Steel
wants to see ya.
- Sh*t.
- I'm coming up.
You're not strong enough for up here. Send
up the pole. I'll watch out for lover boy.
Don't worry. I'm not strong enough?
I've done it dozens of times.
I don't want you up here, lady. Send
up the pole. They're gettin' closer.
He's clamping. Look at
'im. Let go of the pole.
Listen to me.
Let go of the goddamn pole.
Here they come! Let's go!
Dumb fucks.
Pus-breeding bags of sh*t.
You dumb-f***ing bags of sh*t, Ill
kick your f***in' asses. Come on!
Come here, scumbag.
Hook her up, will ya? Hook her.
Hey, nice hat,
a**hole.
Come on! Get the other one out of there!
Steel, Steel, Steel,
cover! Cover!
I got it.
- Geez.
That's it. That's it. That's
it. I got it. I got it. Come on.
Come on. Come here.
Come here.
Yeah. You almost killed Rickles.
Let 'im go, Steel.
- He shouldn't have been
Steel, stop it!
You dirty son of a b*tch!
Let him go! Let him go,
goddamn it,
or Ill cut you in half.
Shut up, you dumb fucks. I hope
they chop you up for dog meat.
Come on, Rickles.
Let's get out of here.
I hope you f***in' rot!
F*** you!
I am not gonna let you
dope me up.
You need a sedative.
You're behaving dangerously.
- I'm just trying to help you, Miguel.
- Well, I don't need your help.
You made me look like
an a**hole out there.
You made me feel
like a piece of sh*t.
You stay away from me
with that, Sarah.
You stay away from me.
Ohh.
You b*tch.
We've got to have sterile
conditions. Half the work we do...
goes down the toilet
due to contamination.
You'll work with what you
got, Fisher. But it's madness!
