London Open up!

F***!

This always works on my room

First The Messiah, then my Mom, now London

What's f***ing next!

What are you gonna do?

We gotta get outta here,

just pack some stuffs In a

bag, I'll meet you in your

room in like 5 minutes

- What?

- Stel, just do it!

Five minutes, hurry

And watch your back!

Mom, what happened

Who did this to you?

What are you waiting for?

We don't have all night

Blow me, fag

Who made you queen for the day?

Dudes, seriously

This is no time for dicking around

Smith?

Smith?

Messiah?

Jesus, you gave me a freakin' heart attack

Stella, there's no time to explain

Where is Smith?

I think he's been kidnapped

F***!

- Messiah, what the sh*t is going on?

Come with me

I'll explain on the way

On the way where?

What are you talking about?

Stella, we may already be too late

Just come on

Welcome back, dude

What is this?

Finally!

The Chosen Son awakes

Can someone please tell me

What the f*** is happening?

It's Day Zero

What the hell is Day Zero?

It's New Order codespeak

For the day the world ends

Dude I'm sure you heard it before But you

gotta cut way back on your weed intake

As a matter of fact...

I've never touched that stuff

The stoner thing was just a front

I'm actually part of a covert group

Operation called The Resistance

And it's our mission, to wipe out

The New Order once and for all

Oliver?

So lemme get this straight

You guys are both ex-members

Of the New Order who are

Now like spies trying to destroy it?

In grossly simplified terms Yes

My girlfriend Rebecca

Is also in the movement

Rebecca Novak?

The red-haired girl

She's your girlfriend?

She was

Before she was murdered

The cult performs secret initiations

Involving underage girls

Who are either abducted or donated

By their f***ed up parents

Rebecca was working undercover

Videotaping the rituals for the FBI

Smith saw that video

It was on the USB drive he said got stolen

We suspect Thor and Rex are

responsible for that - Thor?

And Rex?

So all 3 of you have been

Spying on me this whole time?

Dude, you're the Chosen Son

We have to monitor and report

Your every move

Hers too

Where are you taking us now?

Go ahead, tell him

Tell me what?

We're taking you

To meet your father

Where are they Oliver?

Do you see them?

Yeah, I got them

They're heading east on I-10

You're some kinda witch too?

Like Lorelei?

The New Order tests all its members'

Offspring for the "gift"

A certain type of brain activity

indicating a predisposition

For paranormal ability

Subjects displaying a high level

Of this marker

Are inducted into a program with

Intensive psychotropic treatment

To cultivate those skills

And that's what happened to you?

And Lorelei?

Some come out of the program

Severely damaged

With a laundry list

Of personality disorders

Others don't make it at all

Smith's gift is exceptionally strong

Smith has psychic powers too?

They're just dormant

Like seeds that haven't germinated

Now that he's turned 19

It looks like the Prophecy

Is coming true

What's the Prophecy?

It's based on a recurring dream

Of your father's

The Chosen Son will return to the fold

In its 19th year

And the world as we know it

Will be destroyed in a nuclear holocaust

You're shitting me

The New Order has warheads Strategically

planted in every major city in the world

World War 3 can be started

With the push of a button

But won't they obliterate

Themselves in the process?

The cult has a massive underground lair

Called the Secret Sanctum

Specially designed to survive

A nuclear disaster

So after the great Apocalypse

The New Order will be all that's left

When the Prophecy transpires

You'll inherit the Kingdom

You're gonna be like

The Prince of the new f***ing world

Well if that's true

Why am I tied up

Why do London and my Mom

Have their mouths taped?

Sorry, man

We're just following orders

Though I guess now that we're out

In the middle of nowhere

It's probably okay to let them get some air

What do you guys think?

Why not? But if either of them

mouth off I reserve the right

To plug their face - whole

With my cock

Don't worry

I'll do it nice, and slow

So it won't hurt

Thanks, arse hat

No problemo

Grab her, f***ing douche!

- I'm trying!

Look, is that them?

That van belongs to a Level 4

Night Assignment Smith

So, yes

Well then

What the Jesus are you waiting for?

Floor it!

Who's the girl now?

What the f***'s wrong

With you pussies?

Jesus!

She's a f***ing girl!

Dude, come on!

Get her!

What the...

Pull over!

Kiss my f***ing starfish Homo!

What are you doing?

Hang on!

Are you f***ing kidding?!

You couldn't pick a smoother road?

What the hell?

Look out!
