[screaming]

He could've shot me!

He could've shot me,

but he didn't.

-Eric!

-[sobbing and screaming]

-He used me to lure him out.

-Sh*t. Sh*t.

He's just playing with us now.

Eric, you gotta get your leg up!

You're losing a lot of blood!

-[whimpering]

-[Keren] Eric!

[sobbing]

Eric!

You don't, you'll bleed out!

[screams]

[sobs]

Good! Good!

Now take your belt off!

Hurry up and tie it tight as you

can around your thigh, okay?

-It'll stop the bleeding!

-[panting]

[whimpering, groaning]

Tight as you can!

Tight as you can!

[screams]

No passing out on us!

You gotta stay awake!

Stay awake!

[moans]

Hey, hey, come on, buddy!

Don't pass out on us!

Not now!

Stay with us!

Stay awake!

Sh*t! Ah, sh*t!

[Todd grunts]

[hyperventilating]

-[Todd screaming]

-[skin sizzling]

[Todd moaning, muffled]

[both panting]

There's water in there.

Uh-huh.

Go.

[Keren] Here.

Mmm.

Hit it again.

You need it more than we do.

[moans softly]

[laughs]

Mmm! [laughs]

Whoo! That was refreshing!

[laughs] F***ing a**hole.

Didn't shoot this time.

Yeah, well,

like she said, he's--

he's--

he's just taking his time.

We moved.

His line of sight

could've changed.

Unless he moved, too.

He could be moving

as we speak.

Eric!

Water! Rest for you!

Hey.

You mind giving me a hand?

[laughs]

[painful grunting]

[gunshot]

[Eric screams]

[panting]

[whimpering]

Oh, God!

[groaning]

Eric, keep talking! You gotta--

you gotta stay awake!

Remember!

Eric! Eric!

-[whimpering]

-Eric! [grunts]

Goddamn it!

[eerie music]

[crow cawing]

-Sorry.

-[crow cawing]

"You gotta be there."

[voice breaks] Surprise.

[softly]

Happy birthday

To you

Happy birthday to you

[both]

Happy birthday, dear

Stephanie.

Happy birthday

To you

And many more

Jeff was the other guy's

name, right?

I feel like sh*t

because I couldn't remember.

He said that this was a lot

of vehicle for a couple.

I told him I used it to

haul around my band equipment.

That wasn't true.

Um...

Sarah got pregnant.

We don't know

how it happened.

[chuckles]

We were always so careful.

It was scary, but we decided

to start a family.

So I sold my bike...

my car.

Put it up against

this piece of sh*t.

Bought a...

baby seat and...

crib.

Went all out.

I just really couldn't

help myself.

[laughs]

And then, uh...

We, uh...

we went in for, like,

her umpteenth ultrasound.

There was no heartbeat.

There were no signs,

no, um...

no symptoms...

no warnings.

Just... nothing.

Just here with us one second,

and then... gone the next.

It's really nice out here.

[grunts]

What are you doing?

Wait. Todd, wait!

Wait, come back here!

Todd! Todd, stop!

Get the f*** back here.

-[grunts]

-Why isn't he shooting?

I don't know.

What if he's gone?

[grunts]

[sentimental music]

Todd...

[music fades]

[grass rustling]

[moaning softly]

Hey.

Keren, Keren, Keren!

Todd, there's something

moving back here!

[grunting weakly]

[moans softly]

[gentle music plays]

Just do it.

Come on!

Let's just get this--

[car approaching]

Hey! Hey! Hey!

What! What is it?!

-It's a ca--

-[gunshot]

Oh, f***, sh*t!

[gunshot]

[panting]

-[gunshot]

-Sh*t.

[gunshot]

[splat]

[no audio]

[melancholy music]

[both whimper]

-[Jodi sobs]

-[Karen panting]

What? What did you see?

Hey, Daddy? Daddy?

Mommy? Where are we?

Daddy. Daddy, hey!

-Daddy, wake up!

-What's up, Mama?

-I think there's been an acci--

-[gunshot]

-[yelps]

-[tires screech]

[screaming]

-[tires screeching]

-[screams]

[all shouting]

[screams continue]

-[whimpering]

-Go, go!

[gasping]

Oh...

-Stay to the other side!

-Go back in the car!

-No, there's a shooter!

-The other side!

-[women shouting]

-[Jodi] Stop!

[suspenseful music]

[Karen] Stop! Stop!

-There's a shooter!

-[gunshot]

Sh*t.

-Stop! Stop!

-Other way! Other way!

[gunshot]

-[Keren] No, stop! Stop!

-[Jodi] Other way!

[gunshot]

[groans]

[gasps]

[man groans]

Hey! Hey! Hey!

-[grunting]

-[Keren and Jodi

shout indistinctly]

-[Keren] Keep going!

-[Jodi] Hurry! Hurry!

[man groaning]

Stay low! Stay low!

My daughter!

My daughter's out there!

There's a shooter!

A shooter!

What?! I can't hear

a f***ing word you say!

[gunshot, metal clanks]

My daughter!

Can you get to her?!

Can you get a signal?

My daughter!

Can you get to her?!

Can you get a cell signal?!

911!

Call 911!

[suspenseful music]

Sh*t.

[gunshot, metal clangs]

Run! Get out of there!

Where's he gonna go?

Where? The tree?

-[gunshot]

-He'd never make it.

-[gunshot]

-That call is our last chance.

[gunshot]

[screaming]

Dad?

[gunshot]

[gasps]

[whimpers]

He could have gotten through.

He could've!

It'll be dark soon.

Once that fire goes out,

it'll be--

it'll be pitch black

in all directions.

-We go for the trees.

-Like Eric?

It'll--

it will be a void out here!

He's not gonna see us.

He's not gonna see anything.

He probably has night vision.

Probably?

You wanna find out for yourself?

Be my guest.

I can't.

I can't sit here

for another four hours

just to watch another car full

of people get chewed up.

I can't. I can't.

Smoke.

He can't see through it.

Soldiers under fire

pop smoke grenades.

Shooters can't see 'em.

Army brat, huh?

[device powers on]

[suspenseful music]

[grunting]

[air hissing]

[grunting]

[air hissing]

[grunting]

[grunting]

[suspenseful music continues]

Keren! Keren!

Really?

Message to my mom,

dad, and sisters.

Just in case.

[suspenseful music]

[gunshot]

[gunshot, metal clangs]

[gunshot, metal clangs]

-I think it pissed him off.

-[gunshot]

Hey, careful. Not yet.

I'd rather be shot than burned!

[gunshot, metal clangs]

Engine! Come on.

He's wearing down the walls.

Engine block's

tougher to crack.

-It'll be safer here--

-For how long?

When those tires go,

it'll be toxic as hell.

Try not to breathe

too much of it in.

We go together right?

[both cough]

The call. It got through!

[Keren whispers]

Where did it go?

They must've seen him

shooting at us.

Sergeant, we have a shooter

in an elevated position.

Request state assistance

as soon as possible.

[static]

Damn it!

Do you think he saw us?

He saw us.

We in range?

You see that road.

When we are, we'll know.

All right, as soon as he

pops up another round,

we'll light him up.

Copy.

Must have a real nice spot.

Don't want to give it up.

These kids

can't wait for state.

Come in.

I said, repeat, come in.

-We have an active shoo--
