Daylight Page #7

So you never had

a way out of here, did you ?

No.

[ Air Hissing, Water Bubbling ]

- What's that ? What's the noise ?

- What's going on ?

[ Eleanor ] What does that mean,

Mr. Latura ? What does that mean ?

[ Steven ] Kit, what's going on ?

What's happening here ?

[ Mikey ] The water wasn't

that high last time I looked.

- The water must be coming

back in from somewhere !

- I thought you stopped it.

I slowed it down.

Nothing can stop it.

So what you're saying is nothing

can save us. You asked us to

trust you. We did. For what ?

- To die a slow death in here ?

- [ Eleanor ] Are there no options ?

- There's always a chance.

- [ Sarah ] How can you lie like that ?

- Since you're already in hell,

I guess it's not a problem.

- [ Roger ] Just let him talk !

We've heard enough talking.

We don't need any more speeches.

[ Vincent ] That's bullshit !

She's speaking for herself, Kit.

- [ Eleanor ] We're still alive, Sarah.

- [ Latonya ] It ain't over !

Very over ! You wanna kid

yourself. Go ahead, do it.

False hope and now no hope !

You've given us both.

Thanks for nothing.

Thanks for nothing !

- Sarah. Sarah.

- I can't stand this sh*t.

[ Sobbing ]

- What's plan "B", Kit ?

- There's no plan.

- We're with you !

- We can try taking down

another section.

- We could build another dam

if we all pitched in.

- We can beat it.

I could check the Manhattan end.

I think I could do it. Let me try, Kit !

Can you get us outta here ?

I'm sorry about what my mom said.

Just please, just try

and get us out of here ! Please !

[ Crying ]

[ Panting ]

[ Cooper Whining ]

- I need your help, George.

- Yeah ?

- The bunk rooms off the tunnels,

is there a way in ?

- I don't know.

George, I know you're hurt,

but think.

Bassett said the sandhogs had bunk rooms

down here for long shifts. Think.

Maybe there's a trapdoor,

a hatch, a ladder, something.

- Uh, there's a booth.

- Booth ? Where ?

Uh, booth three.

At the New Jersey end.

Booth three.

Steven, keep everybody together

until I get back. George ?

- Yeah ?

- Thanks.

- Yeah.

- [ Dives Into Water ]

[ Metal Banging ]

[ Squeaking ]

[ Panting ]

[ Blowing On Hands ]

[ Sneezes, Grunts ]

[ Panting ]

Come on. You stay with us.

Did you ever have a dog ?

My mom's liked everything in the world

'cept two things: dogs and me.

Well, she was probably bit once.

I know I was.

- [ Vincent ]

So, Ashley, where do you live ?

- [ Ashley ] We're from Maryland.

- Maryland. Maryland's nice.

- Yeah.

Well, listen, if we don't die

in here, I was wondering if

maybe I could give you a call.

- [ Chuckles ]

- [ Mikey ] He thinks

he's being attacked now.

- Exactly.

- Uh-huh.

- Why don't you go ahead and pet him.

- We've had him for ten years.

- That's a long time.

- Yeah, it is.

Do you have any children ?

Our son Jonathan.

He went trekking in Nepal.

He, uh... caught some kind of a fever.

Nothing could be done, they said.

We, uh-- We lost him.

- Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't--

- Oh, no, no.

- No, no.

- I didn't--

Ever since Jonathan died,

Cooper's all we've had left.

I guess I spoil him.

[ Chuckles ] You understand ?

- Yeah.

- [ Water Sloshing ]

- [ Panting ]

- [ Ashley ] Kit ! It's Kit !

Everybody, Kit !

[ Shivering ]

I found some dry ground.

There's always a chance.

[ Panting Continues ]

Come on. Let's move.

[ Ashley ]

Why don't we take George now ?

[ Steven ] We're gonna check

out booth three, then go back

and get him. Keep moving !

Okay.

- George.

- Hi.

My neck's broken, isn't it ?

You-- You find the room ?

Yeah, it's, um-- it's through

this underwater passage.

It's very difficult. I-- I think that

with a little bit of luck we could--

Christ, I don't know what to think.

I do. You just

have to leave me.

- No, no, that's dumb. That's stupid.

- Yeah.

- We can make it.

- Not with a broken neck.

Yes, George. I just need

some time to figure it out.

Really, I just need some time.

Hey, take the bracelet for me.

Please. It's in my pocket.

My right pocket.

- George, don't quit on me.

- Take it.

- Don't quit on me.

- Take it, please.

- No.

- Take it !

Please.

- Please, give me that--

give me that much respect.

- [ Opens Pocket ]

Jesus, there's just

so much I wish I'd done.

I never had me a nice car.

Never had any kids.

I finally meet a woman I love,

I didn't even get the chance

to tell her that I love her.

- You think she-- she knows ?

- Yeah.

- You think so ?

- She knows. I'm sure she does.

That's good.

Get them to daylight.

Don't let them die

in this place ? Hear ?

Tell them I'm gone.

You've done all you could do.

You know it... and I know it.

I'm very sorry.

I-- I love you, Grace.

[ Shuddering ]

I'm sorry.

[ Shuddering Continues ]

- [ Loud Creaking ]

- What does that mean ?

I don't know, Ellie.

The structure's shifting.

What about George ?

George didn't make it.

- Huh ?

- [ Both Crying ]

[ Mutters ]

Don't.

I know everybody's freezing, but we

have to make a short swim underwater.

Underwater ? Well, I'm not

so sure I can do this.

Look, if I can do it,

you can do it.

Everybody take three deep breaths...

and go. We can do this.

- Come on, baby. Come on.

- [ Gasps ] I can't !

I can't do this ! I can't.

- One, two, three.

- [ Breathing Quickly, Gasps ]

[ Gasping ]

And go. Come on.

- [ Gasping ]

- Come on. Keep going.

Get up there.

...three !

[ Gasping, Shivering ]

- [ Panting, Gasps ]

- I'm right behind you, Eleanor.

Yes ! Go !

[ Straining ]

[ Grunting ]

Here we go, boy.

Go, boy.

[ Whimpering ]

[ Coughing ]

Quick, get her out of the water.

Help her out. Help her out.

- [ Coughing ]

- [ Kit ] Go ahead.

[ Kit Mutters ]

[ Panting ]

All right,

everybody stay together.

All right, everybody stay

together. Use each other's

body heat. Fight the cold.

Stay warm.

Stay in groups.

- Don't stay alone.

Okay ? Stay in groups.

- Okay.

- What do we do now, Kit ?

- We don't do nothing.

We just sit here and wait

and pray they get here.

[ Vincent ]

Wait ? Wait ? That's it ?

[ Shivering ] There's--

There's nothing we can do ?

You did what you could.

- [ Shivering ]

- You did great. You did great.

- [ Kisses Head ]

- You gotta fight it.

- Fight the cold.

- I'm trying.

Just fight it.

Just fight it.

[ All Shivering ]

Where's Cooper ?

Where's Cooper ?

[ Shouts ] Where's Cooper ?

It broke.

I couldn't hold him.

- [ Sobbing ] Oh, my God !

- My God, I tried. I tried.

- Oh, my God ! I can't lose him !

- Ellie. Ellie ! No.

- No.

- It was Jonathan's dog.

Look, look, Eleanor.

Listen to me. Listen to me.

We can't bring them back.

They're both gone.

- We can't change that.

- [ Shuddering ]

We've gotta...

help each other let them go.

[ Crying Continues ]

[ Shivering ]

Don't let's... fight.

[ Shuddering ]

Hold me.

Hold me.

[ Crying Continues ]

[ Metal Screeching Loudly ]

- [ Screams ]

- [ Rumbling ]

Jesus ! They're gonna

save us to death.
