What animals are you referring to,

and what do they like to eat?

Mostly we got coyotes. There are some

black bears, some mountain lions.

Is that gonna be

a problem for you?

See, I'm sorry. I just...

I don't understand

why us girls are going.

We already have one missing.

Why do you need us?

Can't we just stay here?

That's not a bad idea, just in case Nina

and Eduardo find their way back home.

Yeah. Maybe I should just stay

here and-and-and protect Lizzie...

because there might be some animals

running around or something.

Guys, I need two bodies.

You decide for yourselves.

In the meantime, I'm gonna go

try and find your friends.

It's gonna be okay.

All right, sure.

Be safe.

You're such a vaj. What?

I'm gonna be protecting you.

That's what.

All right, I need to know who

talked to Eduardo and Nina last.

Anything you can think of

is important, all right?

What they said, what they

were wearing, anything.

What difference does it make

what they were wearing?

It's not like there's 100 people

out here to distinguish them from.

Listen to me very carefully,

you little f***.

I'm gettin' good and goddamn tired of

everybody's smart-ass little comments...

and their insinuations,

all right?

Now I'm running this

search and rescue mission.

If I ask you a question,

you answer it. You got me?

Take it easy, okay?

We're just tired.

That's not an excuse.

I'm in charge. Got it?

Both of you, start

f***ing paying attention.

Hey, what is your problem? We're

just trying to find our friends.

This is the future of America?

The bright

college kids that I've

sworn myself to protect?

We gotta hike up the road about 10 clicks.

Can we get going, please?

Clicks?

Sorry, college boy.

Kilometers. Does that help?

Actually, no.

I'm not f***ing European.

- I don't know what a kilometer is.

- 6.4 miles. Let's go.

You want us to walk six miles?

Ben, that's crazy.

Do you want to find

your friends?

'Cause it wasn't my bright idea

to bring these people up here.

And if you weren't so damn busy hiding

your boyfriend from your father,

I could've called him

by now to help us.

Wait. What? Your dad doesn't

know that we're still dating?

What is his problem with me?

Why doesn't he like me?

No, he does like you. He just doesn't think

you're the man I should be marrying.

Wait. Who said anything about marriage?

This is about him respecting me.

More importantly,

you don't respect me.

Do we really need

to be doing this right now?

'Cause your friends are out there.

They need help. Let's go.

This isn't over.

Hey, isn't there something

weird about Ben?

I mean, doesn't he

give you, like, a...

There's, like,

a serial killer vibe to him.

He looks all right to me.

I think you're

just paranoid, seriously,

or jealous of him.

Do you want me to make us some food?

I'm starving.

Oh, no. I'm too paranoid to eat.

I'm gonna

just do a little research

on our friend Ben.

Oh, and the bone that I found.

You're disgusting.

You kept that bone?

Yeah, because it's weird.

It's, like, a human bone.

Foul. That's what it is.

- Shall we get it?

- No. I'll get it.

Because you're a spaz.

Who knows what you'll say.

McClean residence. Who is this?

- Mr. McClean.

- Lizzie, is that you?

Uh, yeah, this is Lizzie. Hi.

What are you doing there?

Oh, we decided to...

come up last minute.

Where is Ben? Get me Ben.

Ben? Just with Allie

and Evan at the warehouse.

- Is everything all right?

- Yep, everything's great.

Lizzie, you need to get out of there.

We're leaving.

We're leaving as soon as

we find Nina and Eduardo.

What do you mean find?

What's happened, Lizzie?

Lizzie, I need you to get out of there.

It's been really great talking.

It's getting so late.

I'm gonna go to bed.

I'll have Ben call you in the morning.

Bye. Don't hang up on me.

Why didn't you

tell him the truth?

He doesn't know we're here. I don't

want to get Allie and Ben in trouble.

Um, hello. You answered the phone.

I think he knows we're here.

- Yeah, whatever.

- Oh, my God.

I take back every nice

thing I said about you.

You're an idiot.

It's just... It's, like, it's always

something with you and your dad.

Hey, what are those?

Night vision.

Why didn't we get a pair?

Mostly 'cause I only have one,

and since I'm the only one out here with

experience, I should be wearing 'em.

Don't you think?

Okay, can we stop

with the testosterone, please?

What the hell is that?

Car's lights

headed toward the house.

There's no reason for anybody to

be out here this late at night.

You guys stay here. Don't move.

Do you see what I'm seeing?

This guy runs like a deer.

I wonder what spooked him.

He's the caretaker. He's supposed to

know everything that goes on here.

Who would be coming

out here this late?

I don't know,

but he'll figure that out.

Can we get back to why you and

your father don't respect me?

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Down. Get down.

Oh, I was just

thinking the same thing.

I'm not talking about that. Look,

there's a car there, okay?

Oh, I'm sorry. They can see

us, but we can't see them.

Awkward. Uh, just

get... stay down.

Evening, officers. Evening.

How can I help you?

Your neighbor here said

he heard an explosion.

- So we came to check it out.

- Is that right?

We had a little trouble with

a blown transformer earlier,

but, as you can see,

we're up and running.

That's probably

what you heard, Tim.

No, that's not

what I heard at all.

Why don't you go on and go home, son?

We'll take it from here.

Yeah, but I'd like

to stick around.

No. We got it under control.

Go on home, son.

Tim, the officer's

asking you to go home.

Do you want to leave, or do you

want me to call your parents?

Unbelievable. Kick rocks, kid.

Let the grown-ups

talk, would you?

Kids these days have

no respect for authority.

You new around here?

Yeah, I'm tending the

night post for Elouise.

She's, uh, pregnant.

Got assigned to a desk.

I'm gonna investigate

and make sure this checks out.

Mind if I take a look inside?

You always work here

this late at night?

Well, had a little trouble

with some squatters.

Saw your headlights coming.

I didn't know who it was.

I thought I'd be prepared.

Yeah, that's a real problem

for you ranch handlers.

Uh, any recent disturbances?

No.

Not lately.

11-99 in progress.

All officers respond, 12:55.

Jerry, we got to go.

Yeah, Ludwig here, Dispatch.

Over. Copy that.

Sure thing.

We're on our way. Over.

You have a good night.

Likewise.

Good night. Take care.

Hey. Tell Elouise

I said congratulations.

We'll do that.

And why is it leaving, huh?

Why wouldn't it stop?

Because we probably

don't need help anymore.

I'm sure the guys

figured it out.

They probably found Eduardo and Nina.

Everything's fine.

No. If they'd found Eduardo and

Nina, they would have called.

Look, I'm gonna go

flag it down, all right?

Ben took care of it. Calm down.

Stop being a spaz.

We need more help

finding Eduardo and Nina.
