Into the Storm Page #7

about people's futures...

and now it looks like I don't have one.

So, uh...

if there's no future...

we should talk about the past.

Um...

Some bad sh*t happened along the way.

You know, like it does to everybody, I guess.

And...

And I didn't move on, Dad. I blamed you.

I really gave you sh*t, and I wish I hadn't.

I so wish I hadn't.

No point in wishing now, huh?

What do I wanna say? Um...

Go easy on Trey.

He's gonna tell you that this is all his fault.

This was his idea. But it wasn't.

It's just Trey. His attention-seeking behavior.

My idea.

My fault.

Trey, you should be the person you always

were, dude, because you're awesome.

You're awesome and I'm proud of you...

and just live every day like it's your last.

Because, sh*t, someday it will be.

And for once, I know what I'm talking about.

And, Dad...

Dad, I love you.

I really love you and I'm sorry.

Okay, I'm sorry.

Okay. Sorry.

Sorry.

Come here.

Okay.

All right.

Getting my hard drives.

MAN [ON SCREEN]:

We are tracking a massive tornado.

ALLISON:

Pete, you seeing this?

MAN:
There's a second tornado formation.

PETE:
I see it.

MAN:
This storm is heading northwest.

There. And it just touched down.

We now have two very large tornadoes

moving towards the town of Silverton.

All residents of Shaw County

should seek shelter immediately.

They are converging, which could

generate wind speeds of up to a-

There! There they go!

They just converged.

We are looking at wind speeds inside

the funnel of over 300 miles per hour.

This is de?nitely an EF5.

This is the biggest tornado I've ever seen.

[MAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY

ON SCREEN]

DONNIE:
The school.

- The whole town's in there.

Warning systems are out.

They're sitting ducks.

GARY:

Okay, everybody out. Now. Let's go.

DONNIE:

Hurry! Get out! Go!

TOM:

What are you doing? You out of your mind?

- There is another tornado heading this way.

- And you want us to go outside?

- You don't understand.

ALLISON:
You have to.

This is the storm shelter, for chrissake.

- Not for this.

- Would you believe us?

We've been out there.

We know what this can do.

I am not going to risk it.

I've got hundreds of people here.

You will have hundreds of dead people

if you stay.

Sir. I've studied storms all my life,

all right?

This is bigger than any storm

that has ever been. Can you hear that?

- It will flatten this building in seconds.

GARY:
Exactly.

With or without you, we're getting

these people onto those buses.

[CROWD SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY]

Come on, everybody!

Get on the buses! Move!

WOMAN:
Yeah.

Come in the bus.

Come in the bus with us.

You guys, we gotta back up!

We gotta go back and find a road!

Gary, we need cover.

We can't stay in the open.

It's moving too fast.

We're not gonna outrun it.

PETE [OVER RADIO]:

The road's blocked. We gotta turn around.

DONNIE:
No, Dad, pull over up here.

GARY:
