Do you hear that?

I saw a rat once.

Never seen that.

- I saw a rat once.

- Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Have you seen

anybody else?

I've got another thing to do.

Another thing

you've got to do.

Cheese on the back

of the neck. Drunk.

Melts.

Cheese melts melts.

Three blind mice!

Three blind mice!

Do you see that light?

Yeah.

Hello, 911.

What is your emergency?

We're somewhere

in the evacuation zone.

I'm not sure where.

Somewhere off

of Farm Road 2777

and Highway 73.

- Is anyone hurt?

- No, no one's hurt.

We're both a little dehydrated,

but we're fine.

Well, you're lucky to be alive.

- Thank you.

- Okay, what are your names?

One... male's Andrew Kaulder;

female, Sam Wynden.

Can you describe

what you're wearing?

Does it matter?

We're the only two people here.

We haven't seen anyone

in the last 48 hours

from the southern tip

of the border.

Okay, don't move

from that location.

We have an army patrol in the area

we're sending over right now.

They should be

with you very soon.

Just stay

where you are, okay?

I always wanted to work

behind a register.

- Really?

- Yeah.

I thought it'd be cool to work

behind a register.

- I used to have a register.

- I don't doubt that.

- And I had real money in it too.

- I don't doubt that either.

There were

just $1 bills though.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Isn't that funny

how you imitate

what your parents do?

Obviously your dad

counted money,

so you'd sit there

and count your money.

My kid'll...

imitate me.

You should

give him a camera.

You look good

behind a register.

So what are you

gonna do tomorrow?

I don't know.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know.

Okay. Gotta make

a phone call.

I'll give you some privacy

to make your own.

Is Tommy awake?

Yeah, will you...

will you put him on?

Hey, buddy.

Happy birthday.

Hi. Yeah, it's me.

With big wheels?

Yeah? What color was it?

Yeah.

I miss you too.

Trust me... it's fine.

Huh. I know.

You did?

Yeah.

I'm sorry.

I'm really tired.

Okay.

No, I'll see you then.

Yeah.

No, I'll see you then.

No, you don't need

to come down here.

It's... no, because that

would be pointless.

'Cause they're gonna

be here soon so...

Hey.

Yeah. No, I'll be home

in two days.

Yeah.

No no no,

I'm-I'm... I'm fine.

I'm fine.

Yeah, I just wanted to make sure

that you guys were okay.

Okay.

Listen, don't worry.

I'm gonna see you.

It's... it's fine.

We'll have plenty

of time to talk.

Well, that's good.

That's really good.

I miss you too.

Okay.

I love you too.

This is it.

I don't want to go home.

- We've located one male and one female.

- Move move move!

- We're heading in.

- This is a restricted area.

- Sir, you need to come with me.

- We need to get you out of here now.

Gareth Edwards

Sir Gareth Owen Edwards, CBE (born 12 July 1947) is a Welsh former rugby union player who played scrum-half and has been described by the BBC as "arguably the greatest player ever to don a Welsh jersey".In 2003, in a poll of international rugby players conducted by Rugby World magazine, Edwards was declared the greatest player of all time. In 2007, former England captain Will Carling published his list of the '50 Greatest Rugby players' in The Daily Telegraph, and ranked Edwards the greatest player ever, stating; "He was a supreme athlete with supreme skills, the complete package. He played in the 1970s, but, if he played now, he would still be the best. He was outstanding at running, passing, kicking and reading the game. He sits astride the whole of rugby as the ultimate athlete on the pitch".Edwards was prominent in the Welsh national team that was to the fore in European rugby in the '60s and '70s. He is one of a small group of Welsh players to have won three Grand Slams including Ryan Jones, Adam Jones, Gethin Jenkins, Gerald Davies and J. P. R. Williams.In the 2007 New Year Honours, Edwards became a CBE for services to sport. He was knighted in the Queen's Birthday Honours of 2015, for services to sport and for charitable services. more…
