Emeryville Page #4

- Nothing could be

worse than Mr. Mckinnie

staring at us with

that double barrel.

- Now you wait.

Ethan's gonna be driving

down that road at any moment.

We'll be on our way.

- Ethan's not coming back.

- You chose to come here!

- We made a mistake.

We have to deal with it.

- Maybe I don't want

to deal with it.

- Justin wait!

- For what?

For death?

Or to become like one of them?

Right now I'm not sure which

one is more attractive.

If you find Christie,

when you find Christie,

just tell her

something for me, huh?

Tell her I found that fire.

You tell her I took a stand.

- Gonna be a long night.

Long and wet.

- Do you think

Justin will be okay?

- I don't know.

- Now what?

- I don't know.

- Come on, Cole.

You always find a way.

- I'm sorry to disappoint you.

- I must look terrible.

Ugh.

- No, I don't think you've

ever looked prettier.

- I don't think now's a

good time for compliments.

- It's never a

bad time with you.

How long have we been together?

- I don't, I don't know.

- It'll be three years tomorrow.

And there's something

I've been meaning

to say for a while now, I just,

I couldn't find the time.

Reagen,

you're the best thing

that's ever happened to me.

And I know,

that I'm hopelessly

flawed to deserve you.

- You've got a good heart Cole.

- No, I don't.

The truth is,

ever since I saw you,

I wished you'd never

remember your past.

- There's gotta

be a good reason.

- It's just,

what if there was someone else?

Someone, who cared about you,

more than me.

I'm just so scared

of losing you.

- You don't have to

worry about that.

- How 'bout,

as soon as we get

out of this place,

we can start over again.

We can, ya know, go on our

first date and everything,

what do you think?

I'm gonna need therapy

after all this is over.

- How does

greasy Chinese takeout,

and a cheap bottle of wine,

and a kung-fu movie

at the drive-in sound?

- Greasy Chinese

food, and cheap wine,

sounds great.

We should call in.

How about this week.

Uh, oh, phone.

- Hm?

- We have to get to the

saloon, to the phone.

- How do you plan on

doing that exactly?

- Oh god, I don't know.

Just give me your phone.

- Cole, you know

it doesn't work.

- It'll work just fine.

- Who is it?

- It's me, city boy.

They found this place.

- FBI?

- I'm afraid so.

- Tracking device.

- There's more where

this came from.

- What do you suggest we do?

- Can I come in?

- Ethan, is that you?

Come on man, it's

not the time to be,

- no rules,

- funny.

- There's chaos.

- See what I mean.

- No.

I'm afraid I don't.

- Operator.

Operator!

Ugh!

- Look at their hooves.

Don't they look funny?

You can't see that?

Look at it?

Look at the hooves!

Don't you get it?

Whoever's out here!

He's been in here!

Look!

- Get a hold of yourself!

- They're out here!

Because of hoover!

They've been out here!

Look at 'em, look at 'em!

See how they,

- them stray folk

put you up to this?

- No!

I knew, the moment

I laid eyes on you,

you were with the FBI!

Where are you

hiding that device?

- Shh!

- God may never forgive me,

for what I've started today.

These people may

be mentally ill,

but they're still human.

And no amount of electricity

can make them human again.

We don't always make

the right choices.

For all we know,

in those moments,

are the result of bad memories.

Wm3c4 erased declarative memory,

while leaving

procedural memory alone.

In other words,

physiologically they

remain unchanged,

behaviorally however,

the subject becomes

an empty slate.

Wm3c4,

is a declarative

memory reset button.

Three months now,

the treatments are going

better than I anticipated.

Several subjects have

started forming new memories.

A few have started

inventing memories.

Their behavioral instability

used to be a concern.

First success,

someone who could

actually rationalize,

control impulses,

separate right from wrong.

This one, fit for

the real world.

Something ain't right.

A few of the subjects

are continuing to exhibit

random aggressive behavior,

that's outside the

normal patterns.

It's rubbing off on others.

The in law inside them

is, it's contagious.

I'm beginning to think

you can't tame what's

meant to be wild.

And it was the first

sign of trouble.

When Ms. Blake

reached her full term.

It's a classic reaction,

they're like animals

and they want me to

become one of them.

- There was no

infantile disease.

No one showed 'em

how to handle babies.

The cries got to them.

- What are you talking about?

- It doesn't matter anymore.

Christie was right.

They keep the ones they need,

and they don't need us.

- Hey, there's a way out.

- Yeah, uh,

Justin, Justin, Justin,

we have to get, Justin,

- look at me!

Look at me!

- Give me your hand.

- Can I let go?

What?

- You came back.

- You didn't think I would?

- Just for a moment.

- Listen,

there's still a couple

hours 'til daylight.

I know it doesn't sound right,

but get some sleep.

- I'll take you up on that.

- Bad dream again?

- I left someone behind.

Her entire family.

- So that why you were

dishonorably discharged,

leaving 'em behind?

- For trying to save them.

- Oh my god, Chris!

- Come on, we can't stop!

- Chris!

Chris!

Oh my god, Chris!

- Her name is Casey.

- It's not her name.

I don't have time to explain.

Chris you have to come with me.

- Just come.

- Casey will

help her family.

Raise children,

our legacy.

- You're not her family.

- Oh yes, but we are.

- Casey, tell her

who's your family.

- This is my family.

- Hey.

Come on,

come on, come on.

We gotta go.

Come on, we gotta go.

Go, go, go!

- How much more?

- Come on, come on.

Get in.

- Okay.

- Get in.

- We're not getting outta here.

What, what?

What?

- You drove a stick before?

- Come on get inside.

- We both won't make it.

Not with the stuck gearbox.

I'll lead 'em away.

- No, I'm not

leaving without you.

- There's not much

of a choice here.

- What about your mom?

She's been there before.

Fair enough.

Tails, I leave.

Heads you go.

- I'm coming back for you.

- Don't.

- Remember what you

said last night.

How I fight to forget, and

all you have are Deja vus.

Well guess what?

I'm tired of fighting.

Now go.

Before I change my mind.

- You're dead wrong

about your dad.

He wasn't the best

poker player in town.

Poker face.

There's never enough wood.

There you go, good.

- I'm gonna go

ahead and start flowing.

- You can stop.

You can stop.

I don't know where the coin is.

- You are rolling?

- Forget the

sun, I don't need the sun.

Let's just go.

- Yep.

- Yep.

- Okay.

Action.

- Alright that

is a wrap for the night.

- That's a wrap?

- That's a wrap.
