I Am Legend

Here's Karen at the health desk.

The world of medicine, has

seen its share of miracle cures.

From the Polio vaccine,

to hearth transplants.

But all pass achievements may pale

in comparison to the work

of doctor Alice Kripin.

Thanks you so much for joining

us this morning. - Not at all.

Doctor Kripin, give it

to me in a nut shell.

Well, the premise is quite simple.

Take something designed by nature

and reprogram it, to make it work

for the body rather than against it.

You're talking about a virus?

-Indeed, yes in this case the measles.

Virus, which has been

engineered at genetic level,

to be helpful rather than harmful.

I'll find a best way to describe it.

If you can imagine

your body as a highway,

and you picture the

virus as a very fast car,

being driven by a very bad man.

Imagine the damage that car could cause.

But then if you replace

that man with a cop

the picture changes, and that's

essentially what we've done.

How many people have you treated so far?

We've had ten thousand and nine

clinical trials on humans so far.

And how many are cancer

free? -Ten thousand and nine.

So you have actually cured cancer?

Yes, yes.

Yes, we have.

Three years later.

What did you see, what did you see?

Damn.

Let's go Sam.

Come on.

Here you go, just the way you like it.

Disgusting.

Excuse me, excuse me.

All right, c'mon relax.

Here you go.

Eat your vegetables. Don't just push

them around. Eat them, I am not playing

OK. You're gonna eat your vegetables.

I'm gonna sit down here all night.

What are you whining about? Why

didn't you just eat your vegetables?

Alright, here's a deal.

Look, you're gonna eat twice as

many vegetables tomorrow night.

Alright?

Deal? Deal?

That feels good.

Argh, Sam!

Robert, what is happening? I've been trying to reach

you on the cell, i just keep getting a recording.

Daddy, where are we going?

Can't get used to the new rags.

We are going to aunt

Sarah's. What? No! Why?

Just strap yourself in, go.

Alright, 30 minutes colonel. Copy.

They are sealing off the island.

Seal off the island? This island?

-But I don't wanna go to aunt Sarah's

Did you bring on the money?

-Yeah.

How much?

-600 dollars.

Why did you say "you're" going?

-That's not enough.

Robert, you said that

you're going not we're going.

All right, when you get across, I need you to

get to the ATM. Get as much cash as you can get.

Take Sarah's car, go upstate.

I'll meet you at the farm.

Bring enough food for two weeks.

-Jesus Robert, did it jump?

Is it airborne?

-But we only go to aunt

Sarah's in the summer.

It may be.

-Ow, my God.

Its Christmas. What about my presents?

-He's announcing it.

Make no mistake, my fellow Americans...

-We've left my Christmas presents in the closet.

-This mutating virus is a lethal enemy.

Hush Marley!

...the survival of not only our nation,

but of every other nation on the

planet...

- Mummy, look its a butterfly.

- Marley enough!

...so it is with great sadness

but even greater resolve...

that tonight I've

signed an executive order

initiating a military

quarantine of New York City.

God be with us.

The window is still open.

We find something in a week or two

weeks,

We... can reverse the spread.

I can still fix this.

Please , you can do the

same work outside the city.

This is ground zero.

This is my site. We talked about this.

What are you doing?

What am I doing?

I'm not gonna let this happen.

-Let?

This isn't up to you, you can't...

How did you sleep?

C'mon, you know better than that.

Na-ha, I'll be back.

all killed the host.

Hold on a second.

Compound 6 appears to be showing

decreased aggression response.

Partial pigmentation return.

Slight pupil constriction.

GA series serum 391 compound 6.

Next candidate for human trials.

Hang in there number 6.

That's what you want?

Hey, good morning Marge,

Good morning Fred.

What are you guys doing here so early?

Nice sweatshirt there Fred,

don't fit it down anywhere.

See you guys inside.

What's happening, buddy.

Good morning Hank. I've

been waiting 30.000.

Hey, who's the girl...?

Never mind, hey, I'll

see you in the morning.

What am I supposed to say?

"Hello."

"Wanna see some infected rats?"

Ok, tomorrow.

I'm gonna say hello tomorrow.

Hey, hush, good job. You

Look at that. You see that,

red Salmon. Wow, actual spam.

You'll get some of that later.

Lets go.

Wait.

"For Lucy. Do not open until Christmas.

Love, Teddy."

My name is Robert Neville.

I am a survivor living in New York City.

I am broadcasting on all AM frequencies.

I will be at the South street port every day,

at midday when the sun is highest in the sky.

If you are out there,

if anyone is out there,

I can provide food,

I can provide shelter,

I can provide security.

If there is anybody out there,

Anybody,

please, you are not alone.

Wooooohhhhh!

Keep your eye on this one for me.

I'm getting good.

Sam, no, no, no!

No, no!

No, Sam!

Sam, Sam.

No, Sam!

Sam.

C'mon, Sam.

I gotta go, Sam.

I gotta go. I gotta go.

Sam.

Sam, Sam.

Sam.

Sam!

Sam, c'mon we have to go.

Sam, what are you doing?

Sam, we gotta go!

Sam, go, go! Get out!

Gotta pay attention, ok?

Gotta pay attention.

Listen, uh...

I want you to stay here on this one, ok?

Because you can still get infected.

And i can't.

So look, if I'm not back by dark,

just go.

Ok. Subject is female,

likely 18 to 20 years of age.

Sedative only sedates effectively

at six times the human dose.

Core temperature 106 Fahrenheit,

pulse 200 epm.

Respiration elevated, PAO2,

Pupils fully dilated.

Non reactive to light.

Extreme reaction to UV exposure.

Symptoms and tissue samples

confirm subject is infected with KV.

Vaccine test GA series,

serum 391 compound 6.

Commencing human trials.

Respiration slowing.

Pulse 190, core temperature

We may have something here.

GA series serum 391 compound 6,

ineffective on humans.

Test results linked to this entry

saved on six redundant drives.

Still no cure.

Day 1001. We came in close contact

with a hive today.

Blood tests confirm that i remain immune

to both the airborne and contact strings

to both the airborne

and contact strings.

Canidae remains immune

to airborne string only.

You can't go running into the dark, dummy.

Vaccine trials continue.

I am still unable to transfer

my immunity to infected hosts.

Cripton virus is...

...elegant.

Just fishing in the dark, son.

Behavioral note.

An infected male exposed

himself to sunlight today.

Its possible, decreased brain function

or growing scarcity of

food, is causing them to

ignore their basic survival instincts.

Social devolution appears complete.

Typical human behavior

is now entirely absent.

Why are we stopping?
