Yup.

Okay. There's no reason

to be scared, sweetie, okay?

You've got

your whole troupe here.

I'm not scared. It's

going to be fun.

Great. I'll meet you right

back here on Sunday, okay?

And we'll go for some ice cream.

Ugh.

Okay.

Maybe not ice cream.

Bye.

CHILDREN:
Stephanie!

Hi, Stephanie! Hi!

GIRL 1:
Hey, you can't get me!

GIRL 2:
You just got me!

(GIGGLING)

BROOKE:
All right,

Chrissy, homeward bound.

DYKES:
Tell you what, Cap.

If this is another false alarm,

I'm gonna hit somebody

with my f***ing Halligan.

Fantastic.

We've got a job to do.

(SIGHS)

Holy sh*t.

Wow.

(SIGHS)

Are we gonna call the

park service for this?

Power's out.

What the hell is this?

It's all f***ing shitty.

Oh, yeah.

(LAUGHING)

(HORN HONK)

(CAR DOOR SLAM)

Okay?

Hey!

CHAD:
So, d'ya hear

about the fire?

No.

Chrissy?

She ate a bunch

of sweets and threw up.

We weren't in the camping

mood after that.

KIM:
I told you not

to eat all that stuff.

Do you mind if I

drop her here with you?

No, that's okay. Fine. Fine.

Come on, piglet.

Let's get you a place to sit.

What was that about the fire?

Ah, up on South Mountain.

Some wildfire or something.

Best ask your boyfriend.

I just play here.

Yo, where's that ball?

Okay. Bye-bye.

Ball, please.

BROOKE:
Deputy?

Ma'am?

So, do you have any

plans for dinner?

Well, I'm supposed

to have dinner

with this guy I know.

Oh.

He's in law enforcement.

Well, if it's

the chief, I think

I've got some

ass-kicking to do.

(LAUGHS)

And if it is, I think you have

a daddy complex, little girl.

Oh?

(LAUGHS)

What's up with the fire?

Steph's out camping, you know?

Yeah, they're,

all the Forestals,

they're out at Silver Lake,

you know that.

The fire's nowhere near there.

So, I got Miller and his team

checking it out right now.

They're digging some firebreaks

and other than that

we're just supposed

to wait until the feds show up.

The feds?

Oh, yeah, the fire

was actually started

by this satellite

that they were trying

to shoot down or something

and it fell out of orbit

and crash landed in beautiful,

scenic Preacher's Mill.

What are the odds, right?

Yeah, really.

So, they're

supposed to send out

some HAZMAT team or something

and until then

we're just supposed

to steer clear.

Wow.

Yeah, wow.

First the iron ore runs out

and now sh*t's

falling from the sky.

You'll keep an eye on it, right?

In case the fire shifts?

Hey, your sister

and her whole coven

of Forestals are gonna be fine.

Long as I run this town.

So they're solid until Tuesday,

'cause that's when

the chief gets back.

Well, I'll see you

tonight, then.

Yeah.

(CLEARS THROAT)

(CHAINSAW)

Okay, guys, listen up.

The feds are gonna

be here shortly,

tomorrow morning, so we

don't need any heroes.

Go ahead and dig your breaks

and then back off, okay?

Yeah. Okay.

Has anybody actually been

up to the tower yet?

We just came from the tower.

Whole f***ing thing'sburning up there.

I don't know how you guys

deal with this sh*t.

Beats the hell out

of giving out enemas.

Jeez, Edwards, I told

you to take a break!

MANAGER:
Is he gonna be okay?

I don't know. Looks like

he's got heat stroke.

(BELL RINGING)

Hey, you almost ready?

I'm gonna ride back.

What, all the way?

That's uphill, you know.

I know.

The race is,

like, two weeks out.

Steph all right?

I think so.

She's got your love

for the woods.

(LAUGHS)

Did you hear about that fire?

Yeah, the winds are

blowing westward.

Shouldn't be a problem for you

if you stay on the east loop.

Okay.

Will do.

You home for dinner?

Oh.

Max is cooking.

What, are you

leading that boy on?

See you tomorrow.

Love you.

(CAR SPUTTERING)

Need a push?

Ha, ha.

(LAUGHS)

Sh*t.

(ROMANTIC MUSIC)

(HEAVY BREATHING)

(POWER OUTAGE)

Ugh. Aw.

What the f***?

KIM:
Shh. You're gonna

wake up Chrissy.

(LAUGHS)

Well, so much for that.

How about this?

Why don't you go

start the generator?

Oh, what for?

We've got fire.

You got fire.

Well, that's all true,

but the house doesn't,

and unless you start it,

guess who's gonna be

sleeping with us?

Ugh!

Fine! I'll go

see if I can find

a flashlight somewhere

or something.

Sexy.

There's one in the

kitchen closet, I think.

(DOOR CLOSING, BUMP)

Motherf***er!

(RATTLING)

(OBJECT BREAKING)

(OBJECT SHATTERING)

(SCREAM)

(FOOTSTEPS)

What is it, sweetheart?

(WHIMPERING) What happened?

Did you have a scary dream?

What happened?

There's a monster outside.

What?

There's a monster outside!

He's trying to get in.

CHAD:
Okay, okay, okay.

All right, all right, listen up.

You two juststay where you are.

Don't want him coming in here.

It's okay. Nothing's out there.

You just had a scary

dream, that's all.

Uh-uh.

Hey, motherf***er,

anybody out there?

Best be leaving

or I'll call the cops!

It's quiet out here.

Too quiet.

Yo, b*tches, come get some!

F***er!

Work!

Chad?

Chad!

Chad, this isn't funny.

Chad?

Chad?

Chad?

Chad?

Chad, where are you?

(CLICKING)

(SCREAMING)

(SIRENS)

Holy sh*t.

MAX:
Davidson? In here!

So...

how are things

going on this end?

I've got good newsand I've got bad news.

How much have you

had to drink today?

That's probably the bad news.

So, give me

the good news, then.

I've got your cause of death.

Mm-hmm.

All right.

Torso severed

in mid-thorax,

eviscerated and no major

organs remaining.

Massive tissue loss

across the entire

musculature of the body,

maybe 70 percent.

And most of the head,

the right hand, the right leg,

portions of the

sternum and ribs,

fragments of the

pelvis still intact.

All of it largely

denuded of tissue.

Postmortem lacerations

and abrasions indicate all

the typical hallmarks

of non-frenzied feeding.

So, it was a bear attack, then.

This was no bear.

(MENACING MUSIC)

Bite marks.

Well, duh.

Human bite marks.

What?

Human.

Bite marks.

Struck him down and ate him up.

Some...

A person did this!

Yup.

Oh, my God.

Do you think it was Kim?

Kids these days.

I'm gonna go.

Yeah, yeah.

The moose, the moose,

the moose, the moose

Swimming in the water,

swimming in the water

The moose, the moose,

the moose, the moose

COOPER:
Hell of a fire, Sarge!

COOPER:
That'll do it!

MAX:
We need to talk

about last night.

Sure.

What was it?

A bear attack?

What makes you think

it was a bear?

What do you mean?

What else would it be?

That's where we need your help.

Sure.

DAVIDSON:
Okay, Kim.

Now, this is a gelatin mold,

I just want you,

it's gonna be a little warm

I want you to go ahead

and put it in your mouth

and you'll bite down evenly.

Wait a minute!

What's going on here?

It's all standard procedure

in a case like this.

For a bear attack?

I know it seems

a little strange, but...

KIM:
Whoa.

You think...

you think I ate him?

Oh, my God!

Now, Kim, please,

we're just trying to...

What the f*** are you saying?

I think I'm gonna get sick!

What's that?

A bucket for my vomit?

For my vomit, right?
