is over by the elevators.

- I'll run upstairs, get the keys, be right back.

- Hey, make it fast.

We should check these cars

for stuff that could be useful.

That's a good idea. Everybody, split up.

But nobody leave this level.

We meet here in five minutes. Got it?

Adam, come on.

All right. Wait right there, all right?

Hey.

Thank God.

Hello? Reggie?

Reggie, you here?

Hello.

Reggie, where did you put your keys?

Thank you.

Reggie?

- What is that?

- I don't know.

It's some kind of a radio.

Maybe you should try another channel.

Reggie, are you in there?

Hello?

Oh, thank God, man.

Reggie, we're all leaving town, man.

Come on, let's go.

Reggie, come on. Let's go, man.

Reggie?

Oh, my God.

On second thought, you better stay here.

Hello?

Hello?

Hey, hey, I got something.

What is it?

I don't know. It's a weak signal.

What is that?

Should you try saying something?

Hello?

Hello?

Can anybody hear me?

Are you okay?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, what happened?

Are you guys okay?

Yeah, we're fine.

Did you guys find anything useful?

Just a radio. We can't reach anyone

from down here, though.

It's been 10 minutes.

Where the hell is Scott?

I think we need a new plan.

I can't hold them. What do we do?

Run!

Where do we go? Scott!

South tunnel!

Be more specific!

Keep going forward!

- Scott, which way?

- Left. Left!

- Which way, Scott?

- Left, left, turn left!

Nate, come on!

Keep going.

- Nate!

- Just go!

Well?

What do we do now, huh?

- Which one of you has a bright idea now?

- Just calm down.

I'm not gonna calm down, John.

You wanna know why?

Because none of us

are gonna make it out alive.

What do we do now?

- What are we gonna do?

- All right, new plan.

My car is only about a mile from here,

so I think, considering the circumstances...

...that's our best bet.

I'm going for Tori now.

Oh, my God, John, you cannot be serious.

Really?

Her place is a couple blocks from here.

I get her now, we won't have to stop later.

All right, but no bullshit. If she's not there,

then we leave without her. You got it?

- Yeah.

- What if you don't make it, huh?

How will we even know?

If we're not there in 40 minutes,

you leave without us.

Do you understand me?

Yes.

All right.

Then that's the plan.

I'm going with you.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

All right.

Forty minutes. See you there.

Take care of yourself.

You too.

What, you kidding me?

Wait!

--remain calm

and assist family members or neighbors...

...who may be vulnerable

if exposed to extreme heat or cold.

John?

Oh, my God. Jo--

What are you--? What are you doing here?

- Why the hell did you just hit me?

- Wait, I didn't know it was you.

- John, are you okay?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

- Are you all right?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

--when electricity is restored.

My God, you're bleeding, all right?

Come on,

let's take care of this thing.

- Tori, is everything okay?

- Yeah, it's fine. It's just John.

Do not use the

stove to heat your home. This can cause a fire--

- Hi. I'm Tori's boyfriend, Jacob.

- Use caution when driving.

If traffic signals are out,

treat each signal as a stop sign.

- Nice to meet you too.

- Stop in every intersection.

Okay, this is gonna sting a little bit.

You have no idea how happy I am

to see you.

Really? I wouldn't have guessed that.

Well, what are you guys doing here?

We came here to get you.

To get me? Okay, why?

You don't know.

Know what?

There's something in the smoke,

making people change, making people sick.

And we were on our way out of here,

and I just-- I couldn't--

You couldn't what?

I couldn't leave

without making sure you're okay.

- You okay?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

Look, all right, I appreciate your concern,

but we are perfectly fine.

You don't understand.

If you stay here, you can die.

- Both of you.

- Trust us.

- Then what's the plan?

- We meet up at Turner's car...

...we drive up the coast,

and get out of this mess.

- That's it? That's the plan?

- Yeah. That's the plan. You're coming with us.

So you and Jason can go grab

whatever you need so we can get out of here.

His name is Jacob.

- What?

- Never mind.

Adam.

- All right, is everybody ready?

- Yeah.

- Jacob?

- Yeah, I think so.

The following is a public announcement...

...provided by the U.S. military

in an attempt to warn survivors...

What is that?

...of operations currently underway.

- Due to the severity...

- What is that?

...we are unable to maintain control.

At 0500, orders are in place

for the U.S. military...

...to begin the use of chemical weapons

over the city of Los Angeles.

If you are able to vacate the premises,

you have until 5 a.m. to do so.

Wait, wait, wait a minute.

Chemical weapons?

- What the hell are they talking about?

- What's going on?

It must be worse than we thought.

- How long does that give us?

- The following message--

- Less than five hours.

- Jesus.

--provided by U.S. military--

- What do we do?

- We stick to the plan.

We meet up with Turner.

- Everybody, we're leaving now.

- I'm not going.

--we are unable to maintain control.

- At 0500--

- What?

I'm staying.

Tori, if you don't mind,

I like to just stay here in this apartment...

- ...if that's okay.

- No, no.

- That's not part of the plan. We all go.

- John, I'm sick.

I've seen what I'm gonna become.

I'd rather do it alone than burden my friends.

Maybe he should stay here.

You shut the hell up.

Nobody asked your opinion.

The following message is a public--

We are leaving this apartment.

All of us.

--to warn survivors...

And that includes you.

...of operations currently underway.

- Got it?

- Due to the severity...

- ...we are unable to maintain control.

- All right, let's go.

What the hell was that?

Go.

Shh, shh, shh.

Go, go, go!

Adam, come on.

You guys go.

Adam, I mean it. Come on!

Please, give me this.

Just get out of here. Go.

Hey. Hey, up here.

We're on level four.

The stairs, over there.

It's about time.

What took you guys so long?

Just get in the car.

Wait, wait, where's Adam?

He didn't make it.

All right, let's get the vehicle moving here.

We're on the clock.

What's he talking about?

We heard on the radio

they're gonna bomb the city in a few hours.

They can't be serious.

I hate this city.

All right, everybody buckle up.

I ain't stopping this car for nothing.

I can't believe this.

After all I've given this city,

all the parking tickets I've paid.

I was planning on paying all my taxes

on top of things...

...only for them to return the favor

by dropping bombs on us in a crisis.

What the hell kind of town is this?

Who the hell is this guy?

My name is Jacob.

Well, Jacob, would you mind shutting

your face while I drive your ass to safety?

I can't think with these stupid noises

coming from your fricking mouth.

Heh. My father happens to be a very powerful

congressman, I'll have you know...

...and one day,

I plan on being a state senator.

So I would watch the tone
