I thought you should know before

you start questioning his motives.

We're going to follow Hall's plan.

DENNlS:
Sorry, mates,

but we're just about out of petrol.

SlMON:

Hey.

Is there any chance...

...that it'll run...

...on this?

RAPSON:

Are you mad?

That's a 1 2-year-old Scotch.

[LAUGHS]

Gentlemen.

To England.

To mankind.

To Manchester United.

I just....

I just wish l could have seen

him grow up. You know?

The important thing is he will grow up.

Amen.

CAMPBELL:
Maybe you should

have somebody help you.

Sir, l am president

of the Electronics Club...

...the Math Club and the Chess Club.

Now, if there's a bigger nerd in here,

please, point him out.

I'll just leave you alone

to work on it, okay?

LUTHER:
Come on, Buddha,

Look, there's nobody around.

You know what? l'll turn around.

I won't look. l promise.

[DOG BARKlNG]

What?

Hey, man, there's people out there.

I was walking my dog.

There's hundreds of them.

They're walking on the snow.

MAN:

Where they all going?

They're getting out of the city

before it's too late.

CAMPBELL:

All right, everybody. Quiet down.

When was the last time anyone

got a signal on a cell phone?

I got through to my cousin

in Memphis an hour ago.

They're being evacuated to the South.

CAMPBELL:

We should get moving.

The water is frozen over

enough to walk on.

We should go before

the snow gets too deep.

[CHATTERlNG]

CAMPBELL:
Everyone, wrap yourselves

up as fast as you can.

We shouldn't go.

Why not, Sam? Everyone's leaving.

When I talked to my dad,

he told me to stay inside.

The storm will kill anybody in it.

-Then you have to say something.

-l know.

Excuse me, sir, you're making a mistake.

What? Listen, we're all scared,

but we've got no choice.

-That's not it.

-Get ready to go.

If these people go outside,

they will freeze to death!

Okay, what is this nonsense?

It's not nonsense. All right?

Look, this storm is gonna get worse.

The people caught outside

will freeze to death.

-Where are you getting this?

-My dad's a climatologist.

-He works for the government.

-So, what do we do?

We stay inside, we keep warm,

and we wait it out.

The snow is getting deeper

by the minute.

We'd be trapped here

without food, supplies....

-lt's a risk, yeah--

CAMPBELL:
An unnecessary risk.

SAM:

No, no. It's not.

CAMPBELL:

We've wasted enough time talking.

Let's go.

-Look, look. Just look for a second.

CAMPBELL:
Come on, everybody--

This storm is gonna get bad.

It's gonna get really, really bad.

You're not gonna be able to survive it.

Believe me.

Sir, please just stay. Just stay.

Just don't....

MARIA:
She's set to go.

Come on, straight to the back, guys.

JACK [OVER PHONE]:

It'il be impossible to reach each other.

Leave a message for me

at the embassy in Mexico City.

Okay, l will.

I love you.

I love you, Jack.

Tell Sam l love him so much.

God be with you.

-Dr. Hall?

-Yeah.

We haven't been able

to reach Peter's parents.

-l'm gonna try later, okay?

-Okay. Thank you.

I got it.

You're supposed to be on a bus

heading south.

I've been watching your back for 20

years. You think l'd let you go alone?

And all these years l thought

I was watching your back.

Where are the keys?

In the truck.

Where do you think you're going?

Neither one of you can navigate

worth a damn.

Without me, you'll end up in Cleveland.

I'll try to give you updates on

the storm as it heads your way.

Good luck, Jack.

You want to freeze to death?

[DOG BARKlNG]

We're not gonna last long

on M&M's and potato chips.

What about the garbage cans?

There's always something

to eat in the garbage.

Friedrich Nietzsche?

We can't burn Nietzsche.

He was the most important thinker

of the 1 9th century.

in love with his sister.

He was not a chauvinist pig.

But he was in love with his sister.

BRlAN:

Excuse me? You guys?

Yeah, there's a whole section on tax law

down here that we can burn.
