without my son's present.

Vicki, come on,

we don't have time.

(All talking

at once)

It's not safe

in there!

You can't

be serious.

- Vicki!

- It's not worth it.

Get the f***

out of there!

Driver:
I'll go.

I'll go.

I don't trust

this guy.

We're not quite

in Vegas yet,

but we'll get there

eventually.

It's a bit of

an adventure.

And there's our

now-destroyed bus,

which is fantastic

news for us.

Okay. Here we go.

I'm thinkin',

what if I died?

I won't ever see

my mom again.

What happened?

Did you run away?

Yeah.

Nick happened.

Who's Nick?

An a**hole who was

ruining my life.

Huh.

My mom, she just lets him

do whatever he wants,

and I got pissed

and I just left

without saying

anything.

She's probably worried

sick about you.

Yeah, I need to tell her

I'm sorry.

Leann, leann,

come here for a second.

With everything

that's happening,

does it put everything

into perspective?

Does almost dying kind of put

everything in perspective?

That's right.

We all could've...

Jesus.

Tyler:
Looks like a bomb

hit this place.

As long as they didn't

bomb the damn phone.

Come on.

- How's your leg?

- It's fine.

Are there, like,

faucets or something?

It's all rusted over.

The new favorite

holiday destination

of most people.

Over here we have, um,

dilapidated office.

Crazy broad,

and, um...

Abandoned trucks.

Everything you could want

in a prime holiday

destination. Fantastic.

Vicki:
She was

a figure skater.

Ah. Bet she won gold

in Torino.

We got a phone in

this building back here.

It's gettin' too dark.

Wires are all jumbled up.

Does that thing

have a light on it?

Yeah, it's got a light,

and it's got night vision,

so it'll

be perfect.

That's for her movie.

Use mine.

Are you sure?

I put batteries in this

stupid thing three times.

Press "record,"

and the light should come on.

I'm happy someone's

using it.

How you like it, huh?

Not so much fun

like this, is it?

Hm. It's fine.

Just more proof for when I sue you.

Find everybody,

tell 'em to meet here.

I don't wanna be out here

any longer than we have to.

Okay.

Leann.

Leann, Ben's

found a phone, so...

He wants me to

get everyone.

Can you...

Are you in here?

(Loud static)

(Rachel shrieks)

Oh, my God,

what happened?

Where are

you going?

Steven, wait.

Someone!

Anybody, please!

What's going on?

I don't know.

I don't know what happened.

(All yelling

at once)

I just found him.

(Rachel crying

and speaking incoherently)

He just came

out of nowhere.

Oh, my God, you guys,

I see somebody.

Oh, my God,

he just ran across.

Tyler:
Everybody inside.

Everybody inside.

Ben:
Come on,

come on, come on.

First victim,

Steven Lee.

Sixteen years old.

Got him.

It's not her name, it's his.

Gerald fleishman,

retired army sergeant.

Photo lab found

these online.

- That's our girl.

- His wife, Katrina fleishman.

Married for 20 years,

but looks like Gerald had some problems

when he got back

from Iraq.

They called it

post-traumatic stress.

He spent a year at Crescent

park mental institution.

Get this, we just

ran financials.

His entire account

cleaned out two days ago.

Over 90 grand.

Gabe, pull up the mini hd camera

the driver took around back,

- and see if he got any clear shots of it.

- Okay.

How do you like it, huh?

Not so much fun

like this, is it?

Hm, it's fine.

Just more proof

for when I sue you, so...

Find everybody,

tell 'em to meet here.

I don't wanna be out here

any longer than we have to.

Okay.

Step over door.

What have we here?

(Loud popping)

Goddamn it!

(Generator powering up)

Son of a b*tch...

- Is that it?

- Uh, there should be more.

It's still rolling.

We should be

seeing something.

- (Woman moaning)

- That's not our driver.

- Who is it?

- A better question is when is it?

(Screaming)

(Agonized screaming

continues)

- (Screaming continues)

- Geez.

(Moans quietly)

(Screaming continues)

- All right, that's enough.

- F***!

I am gonna

nail this bastard.

Um, Gabe, go back

a few frames.

Keep going.

Keep going.

In the reflection.

His face is in the glass.

It's too dark.

Get in closer.

Isolate the sharp

edges of the face.

The wrinkles, the teeth,

the facial hair.

- Okay, what is he doing?

- The shadows will give us a clean outline,

- then we'll invert the color.

- Okay, I got it.

Reverse it again.

- A mask. - That's the welder's

mask we found at the scene.

You work the 91-a.

- What's a 91-a?

- He was a machinist.

Fleishman's unstable,

he has a history of violence,

his wife robs him blind,

he goes mad with revenge.

- Circumstantial.

- Get it out to P.R.

I want his picture on

every news outlet.

We need to keep

checking the video.

You find me some

indisputable evidence,

'cause I'm taking this prick

straight to the chair.

You heard her.

- Let's go.

- Rachel's camera coming up.

(All talking

at once)

(Rachel sobbing

and speaking incoherently)

Tyler:
Everybody

stay quiet.

Ben:
Be quiet!

They killed him.

I didn't see anybody

from this end.

You see anything?

Why did they kill Steven?

He was just a kid.

Ben:
Will you turn

that goddamn camera off?!

The cops will need this

to identify who did this.

(All talking at once)

They have to know

what happened to us!

What are we gonna do?

What are we gonna do, what are we gonna do?

Tyler:
Maybe we

should run for it.

Run for it?

Have you seen Vicki's leg, Tyler?

We're, like, 40 Miles

away from anything.

Ben:
And it's

pitch black out there.

We could fall into

a 40-foot ditch,

and never even know it, not to

mention the coyotes, the rattlesnakes.

No, you said there was

an emergency phone.

You said there was an emergency phone.

Can't you fix it?

The wires are split

pretty bad.

Leann:
Isn't there anything

on the bus,

any wires, tools,

anything you can use?

I might be able

to rig something.

You just said

it was too dangerous.

But if there's something we can use,

he has to go out there.

Take my camera,

use the light.

I might as well put a bull's-eye on my ass.

My camera has night vision.

If I come with you,

we could do that and

be totally undetectable.

I'll take your camera.

Give me...

I'm sorry if I was

a prick earlier.

You? Never.

I guess it's my turn

to be a hero now.

They tell me I look

like tom cruise.

Oddly enough,

I can see that.

I saw him, I saw him.

He's on the other side of the yard.

You have to go.

Follow me.

Can you take that?

Go, go, go, quick!

Rachel!

Oh, my God.

Ben. Okay, okay.

Come here.

(Rachel whispering

indistinctly)

Okay, just

go straight.

Straight. Just keep going straight.

You're fine.

(Eerie sound)

Oh, my God.

Did you hear that?

(Rachel whimpering)

Ben:
Sh. Sh.

The bus should be

right down this hill.

- Okay.

- Let's keep going.

Wait.

Wait.

Is that it?

I can't tell.

Is it just...

That's it,

that's it.

Oh, thank God.

Oh, my God.

Rachel.

(Rachel sobbing)

I can see

the bus from here.
