Flashburn Page #3

Our intel says

that he's alive,

and that's where

we're headed now.

You've got two choices.

You can kill us and

kill your family or let us go,

and we bring Wes back

and help them.

It's gonna be too late.

It may be.

[pounding]

Stop!

Stop it! I said stop!

Stop! Stop it, please!

Stop it, honey!

Stop, stop, stop!

Stop it!

Stop!

WES:
So what went wrong?

The initial tests

were successful, then...

this happened.

We don't know why, but the virus

and the modified bacteria

joined together in symbiosis.

What does Flashburn do?

It takes control of your brain

and makes you do things.

Like what?

What things does it make you do?

Anything to infect

other people.

A bite, a scratch,

a kiss, sex.

Then what?

It eats you from the inside.

WES:
I remember.

I remember everything.

- [tires skidding]

- [crash]

[serene]

It's high-security premises.

Something is going on.

What are you talking about?

I started noticing

a week ago that...

...vials are going missing.

- They're being misplaced.

- What?

The color of the vaccine

is being different.

Why didn't you

tell me this earlier?

I wasn't sure, so I started

to take pictures. Look.

Kalie, this is empty.

There's no photos

in this folder.

There were 349 last night.

The birthdays, Christmases,

my parents' 50th anniversary,

they're all gone.

Okay, that doesn't

mean anything.

It doesn't,

but this morning,

I woke up with

a severe headache.

Did you have

one of your migraines?

No. It was so bad

that it felt like

I was drugged.

So I tested myself

for Diprivan.

And?

I think they're using

our mutated virus as a weapon.

WES:
This is it.

I remember this.

This is the vaccine.

It was always here.

Right in front of our eyes.

Then why?

Where did you find it?

Let's go.

Let's go, let's go, let's go!

[gunfire]

[gunfire continues]

[gunfire continues]

Do you understand the risk?

Okay, do it.

Just do it.

It works.

Just wait to make sure

it stabilizes.

Okay.

- Stay right there. Stay here.

- You only have one bullet.

You only have one bullet left.

Just stay here.

Kalie...

LAZARUS:
Wes?

Lazarus, I...

Where the hell are you?

I'm on the roof.

Can't you see me?

I have no visual

on the roof.

What the f*** is...

Why is she...

...with the shooters?

Lazarus, what...

I don't... I...

Go back to the door now.

Okay.

Okay, okay.

[silenced gunshot]

[grunts]

KALIE:
Nolan.

Nolan, wake up.

- What happened?

- You fainted.

Stop it.

What, am I not

good enough for you?

It's the virus

trying to spread, right?

Tell me, Kalie.

I'm sorry.

Lazarus!

KALIE:
Hasn't been responding

since you passed out.

Nolan!

I just need a minute.

I didn't know.

I didn't know.

- I'm so sorry.

- Hey, hey.

We'll find the vaccine, okay?

We'll find it.

1-5-6-2-7-9-4.

Try that. Try it.

What do you see?

How did you know?

It's coming back.

All of it. It's coming back.

Okay, okay.

Okay, where's the vial?

Okay.

Okay, now we wait.

You lied to me, didn't you?

I didn't.

Yeah, you did, Kalie.

You said all the photos

were erased.

Where did you find it?

It doesn't matter.

Lazarus must have

placed it here.

Don't you get it?

She's playing with your mind.

She doesn't want us

to cooperate.

Tell me the truth, Kalie.

You have to believe me.

You and I both depend on it.

I just want the truth.

Where is my wife?

Right.

Lazarus lied about that too.

Said I had a wife

and a daughter.

A family.

Something that she knew

I've always wanted.

She said she would harm them

if I didn't do what she said.

Doesn't sound very smart.

I know I have a wife.

I can feel it.

And that feeling gets stronger

every single second.

But I've never had a daughter.

My brain, maybe,

or my soul would never

let me forget that.

Never.

Even this is a lie.

The indentation

on my finger's

twice as fat

as this piece of garbage.

[tinkling]

[beeping]

Position confirmed.

Lazarus is in there.

Wes, it works.

It works!

It works!

LAZARUS:
You really think

we are that stupid?

Kalie.

You brought the virus in here

and jeopardized

our only chance.

[sighs]

It's over.

Wait.

I remember.

I've always had it.

I just forgot where I put it.

Where?

LAZARUS:
Don't tell her.

Don't listen to Lazarus.

Tell me.

She is not

who she pretends to be.

No.

The game is up.

I remember where it is.

You can't threaten me anymore.

I would never hurt you.

We are the only ones

who know how to stop

the epidemic.

That's why we were running away,

Wes, I swear.

That's when we found out that

GenoCal started the epidemic

to sell the vaccine

to the highest bidder.

Lazarus?

Not true.

They shot at us.

You crashed the car.

Don't you remember that?

The warehouse.

Was it in the warehouse?

No, it wasn't

in the warehouse.

They brought us here

when we were unconscious.

Don't you realize

how ridiculous that sounds?

Wes!

Kalie Jorgensen

is a foreign agent.

KALIE:
Stop it!

She's lying,

and we're gonna die.

She will kill you

as soon as you find it.

I really wanna believe you.

And I can't give you

a reason to, can I?

Just go, Nolan.

Go by yourself.

You don't even need to show me

where it is.

Just...

[panting]

Just put a few CCs in this

at the bottom of the stairs,

so I can live.

Once you walk out that door,

it's over.

You never have

to see me again.

Nolan.

LAZARUS:

She is playing you, Wes.

Don't fall for it.

Your daughter.

No.

I'd never forget a daughter.

LAZARUS:
They are here.

What do plan to do with it?

They want to stop you.

But not Kalie, right?

I need to lock down

the facility.

Could've told me that

a long time ago.

Why'd you lie to me

about my family?

I'm not.

They're going to kill me.

I'm scared, Wes.

Open the door!

Lazarus, open the door!

If I don't get the vaccine,

no one gets it!

Lazarus!

[beeping]

- It's stuck.

- I need you to stop them.

What?

They're going to destroy

all the hard work we have done.

Lazarus!

Oh, say can you see

- By the dawn's early light

- Lazarus?

What so proudly we hailed

At the twilight's

last gleaming

Whose broad stripes

and bright stars

Through the perilous fight

[off-key]

O'er the ramparts

We watched

Were so gallantly streaming

[slower]

And the rockets' red glare

[lower pitch]

The bombs bursting in air

[beeping]

Kalie.

[beeping]

[oxygen pumping]

[oxygen pumping]

What the hell?

KALIE:
All circuits are intact.

It looks like Lazarus

resisted the radiations.

KALIE:
I hope it worked.

If only he could tell us

where the vaccine is.

We don't have sound.

WES:
I need a password.

I can't...

There's someone else here.

Stop it! Calm...

KALIE:
Wes.

You put yourself

in the program?

I'm sorry.

I couldn't tell you.

I'm the computer virus.

I'm the glitch

that creates controversy,

danger, doubt, and love.

I put myself into the program

to make sure that Lazarus

would perform to the maximum

of his abilities,

to see if he would

remember something.

GenoCal started the epidemic
