Last Passenger Page #5

to the coast to visit my son.

You can learn very well from him.

He doesn't like me either.

Okay, why trains slow down?

Because after Crowhurst the line becomes very poor

all the way to Hastings.

So if you're crazy enough to go outside,

that's the time to do it.

This driver will not slow down.

Then he'll derail us if he doesn't.

You said he wants to die.

Of course he does, but what's the point of dying out here!

It's nothing near as dramatic as hitting those buffers in Hastings.

Whoever this guy is, he's got it all planned,

and he wants to go out with a bang.

And this, this is going to put him on the front

page of every single newspaper in the land.

I think we've got about five minutes before we get to Crowhurst.

Why don't I buy you a drink.

Thanks you.

- What are you thinking Jan?

- I'm thinking how they will write this in newspaper.

- Have you ever been in newspaper?

- Yah, but only local. It doesn't really count.

- For what?

- The Olympics.

- Heh, the Olympics.

Yah. I won a couple of races

for my university running club.

- You said he never runs anywhere.

- He's just old. Huh.

He got bad knees.

He damaged his cruciate ligaments.

It was fun to run, but a doctor was

always the end plan.

- I followed in my parents' footsteps you know.

- How lucky your parents were!

My son would never follow in my footsteps

if I were leading him out of a burning building.

He thinks I'm a dying breed.

Given the circumstances he could be right.

What about you Jan?

Have you ever been in the paper?

Back home, after I study Engineering,

I was magician.

My parents still think I am magician.

- Here in London?

- Yeh, successful and famous.

Is that what you told them?

So what's gonna happen when they find out?

I find out tomorrow, when they fly here.

Surprise Christmas trip. They're coming

to see me in my big London show.

They cannot wait to see

their successful son.

They're so proud there are

articles about me in the newspapers.

Especially my father. Because when I tell him I

want to be magician -

- he was not happy.

What are you going to tell him?

Don't worry monkey, it's alright. It's alright.

He's trying to fix the brakes again.

- Why don't you show us a magic trick?

- Of course.

Okay. Max, you know smoking...

... is very bad.

Some people even say that it will kill you.

But you know the funny thing about people is that they

keep doing things that is not good for them.

And if people keep doing things that is

not good for them, maybe one day...

... they become ...

... Extinct.

Where is cigarette? Do you have cigarette?

Not in briefcase?

Mr Carmichael you have cigarette!

- What about Sarah? You look so innocent.

Do you have cigarette?

- Max, you have cigarette?

Do you have cigarette here?

What is this?

It looks like ...

Harry has cigarette.

Maybe that is why, Harry has

become extinct.

And sleep! And sleep!

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you -

- the Great Klimowski.

I'd keep moving, because the windchill

is really going to bite.

Don't move unless you have to.

- And always keep three points of contact.

- You're worse than my mother.

Come on, Max.

What's happening?

- Where will you be?

- I'm going to be on that side.

- Are you ready for this?

Like Houdini...

I always do my own stunts.

Monkey, go and sit with Sarah!

Go on! Sit with Sarah monkey!

Simon says.

Good luck!

Jan!

Jan! Are you okay?

F***!

F***!

- Lewis!

- Jan!

- Jan! Are you okay?

- No!

I'm not okay!

Hang on!

- Jan! Give me your hand!

- I can't!

Give it to me. Reach out. Just reach for my hand.

Take my hand!

- I can't!

- Give me your hand!

- I can't!

- Reach out!

Okay I've got you!

I've got you!

Lewis! See!

A tunnel!

There's a tunnel ahead!

Come on Jan! Come on!

Hurry up! Come on!

We're nearly there!

- Come on!

- Lewis!

Worry.

Jan?

Jan!

Jan? Can you hear me?

Jan!

Can you hear me?

Jan!

Let's get you up. Come on.

Is that okay?

It's Okay... You just sprained it Jan.

Keep your arm in there and don't move it.

F***ing hell!

You're gonna be fine.

Those things will kill you.

Oh for God's sake!

We can't let you quit, can we.

State would miss the charges.

Cement.

It's probably their idea of a barricade.

- I wish they had used sandbags.

- It's probably all the army had.

Hang on ...

They may have thought this through.

He's stopped?

Forget it, it's a simple track tunnel.

Max! Max, come here.

Come here! Come here!

I want you to climb down.

I know it looks scary, but you have to go,

because the train's not safe!

Why can't I stay with you?

Because I just told you, the train isn't safe.

I don't want to.

Don't start! What have I told you?

What have I told you? You do as you're told.

Come on Max.

Max!

Lewis!

Max!

It's alright! It's alright!

He is terrified.

- It's safer off the train.

- No Dad, No!

- I beg of you! I want to stay with you!

Take Harry away!

I'm sorry that I was playing with the door!

I won't do it again! Please Daddy.

Lewis, stop!

- Think what you're doing!

- I know what I'm doing!

I need you to get off the train. Come on.

Listen to your Dad, please.

- I know it's hard.

- No, Daddy! No!

- Lewis! Stop!

- I'm trying to help him!

Okay, fine.

Never mind.

That's West St. Leonards! Lewis!

We have ten minutes.

We will die on this f***ing train!

You think it's a good time to sit down now Lewis?

You don't think we should be doing something?

You're gonna climb outside the train again?

No, but make explosion the train will come apart.

- Lewis! We have to try to do something!

- Klimowski wants to blow up the train!

- No, we should blow up the coupler!

- We don't have any explosives!

I have an idea.

"Compressed gas"

Down! Down!

Down! Down!

- Dad?

- Sorry monkey, get back! Get back!

If this works, we will be in newspaper.

We will be in newspapers whatever happens.

Then we can't lose.

Give me the lamp!

Give me the lamp!

I can see the coupling!

Take this and get to the back.

For the brake.

You're a good boy - aren't you.

Come on, Max.

Come on!

- Jan! Get to the back with Sarah.

- Where are you going?

Please Jan, just do as I say just for once! Heh.

Come on, Lewis!

Give me room!

Come on, you bastard!

It's free!

Pull it, Lewis!

F***!

Jan!

Help Sarah with the handbrake!

Help Sarah with the handbrake!

She went to the back of the train.

The Handbrake - at the back!

Why are you standing there?

- I heard a scream!

- Lewis is okay. I need your help.

- Come! Come! Come!

- Max wait here!

- Help me!

Come on!

Diesel...

F***!

How fast are we going?

- How fast?

- 55 mph 50! Come on!

45! - F*** you!

F*** you f***ing mother!

Come on, Sarah!

Come on!

On your mark ...

... Get set ...

- Dad

- Lewis?

Lewis

Dad

- Jan can you see him?

- Come on! Lewis!

He's over there!

He's over there!

He's breathing!

He lives, Max.

He lives!

Dad?

I could have got refund.

It's okay Dad.
