Night Claws
Did you hear that?
Hear what?
That...
That animal.
There's something out there, Donny.
Baby, come on...
Hey... it's nothing.
It's probably just like a wolf,
or a bear or something.
Alright, don't worry, don't worry.
Look, we're in the car.
No one's gonna bother us.
Are you sure?
Yeah baby, I'm sure.
Well...
Look at me baby,
come on... come on.
It's okay, really.
Let's finish what we started.
Yeah?
I know you heard that!
I know you did!
Yeah...
Yeah I did.
Then go out there, and check things out.
Or we're not finishing anything!
Okay, okay, Jesus!
Damn it!
APEX PREDATOR:
(NIGHT CLAWS)
And talk about losing
your head over a girl.
That was a kind of sick
thing you're saying, man.
Why, man?
Just kidding around.
SHERIFFS OFFICE.
MOBILE COUNTY, ALABAMA.
So... what the hell
happened here, Roberta?
Oh, good morning to you too, Joe.
I'm sorry, I haven't
had my coffee yet.
What's going on?
So far, best we can tell,
we got two bodies here.
The best we can tell?
We got a lot of pieces here, Sheriff.
- That looks like the old ridge kid's car.
- Yeah.
We confirmed that with the
ID's with that other wallet.
Donny Ulrich and Sandy Sanders.
Just a couple of teenagers
out for a little hanky panky.
Well, let's keep that
out of the report, ok.
It's bad enough I got to tell
the parents their kids are dead.
- Yeah.
- Alright.
- Come on. Let's check that out.
- Okay.
Open it.
That's enough...
Close it.
What the hell could have done that?
I don't know.
The coroner said it
must be some kind of animal.
What I've seen...
I have to agree.
Yeah, but what kind of animal does that
to their prey and then doesn't eat it?
Only one kind I can think of...
The human kind...
Bingo .
So what? Think that we got some kind
of serial killer wacko on our hands?
I don't know what I think right
now Roberta. I really don't.
Just kinda thinking out loud...
let the coroner report tell us.
But in the mean time...
We should shut down the parks
and the campgrounds just to be safe.
Okay.
You got it, Sheriff.
So... we still on for dinner tonight?
Was that tonight?
Hey, I was just kidding.
Yeah, we're on for dinner tonight.
I don't know what I'm
going to do with you Joe.
I really don't.
Yeah, I got two ex-wives
saying the same thing.
Mm... On that note,
I think I'll get back to work.
- Good idea.
- Yeah.
Williams!
Come over here !
What I can do for you, Sheriff?
I want a pictures of that.
Good ones. From every angle.
Then I want you to email them to
zoos, museums and universities...
and anywhere else you can think of...
until we can find somebody who can
hopefully identify what did that.
You got it, Sheriff.
Alright.
And send some to my office too.
Will do.
Anything else?
Yeah.
Tell me what happened here.
Well ah...
Never mind.
- Just get the pictures taken care of.
- Yes sir.
We just wait for them to finish up.
Then go down there and pick up the trail.
That could take hours, boss.
I'm sure it will.
And I don't care.
Why don't we just cap the whole
misdemeanor and go about our business?
Because that would make a mess.
And I don't like messes.
Besides, to do something
stupid like that will have
out here looking for us.
Is that what you want?
I guess not, no.
That's why I don't pay you to think.
So don't!
That Sheriff gets in
my way, he'll get hit.
Not, right, now...
Let him do his job. He might
just take us right to our prey.
- You got it?
- Yes, sir.
- You got it?
- Yes, sir. I got it.
Okay, everybody gather around!
Okay...
Originally we had three
couples in the group.
But the last ones backed out.
Does anyone have a problem with that?
These are the Chadworths,
Edward and Linda.
and these are the Parkers,
Charles and Cindy.
As you know, we are going out into
the wild for a period of three days.
With very limited supplies.
survival situation that
forces us to survive off the land
using our own skills and nothing else.
But don't worry because
I push this button and help will
get to us in 12 hours or less.
So that thing pretty much
works from anywhere?
Pretty much, yes.
Pretty much... What do you
mean exactly pretty much?
Don't worry Mr. Chadworth,
it will work from
anywhere we're going.
I see... I'm just...
I'm fine with it.
I just wanted to make
sure it work, that's all.
Okay folks, let's get moving.
What do you think he's afraid of?
It's only gonna be a few days.
Maybe he's afraid of the woods.
He's not afraid.
He has been camping before.
Ever been camping before?
Hey Ed... where the hell
did you grow up?
I grew up in New York.
Do you have a problem with that?
No, I got no problem with that at all.
But I will kick your ass if
you don't get out of my face.
Really?
Really.
Don't do it, Charlie.
Shut up, Cindy.
You wanna dance?
Come on, let's do this.
I got to clear my problems
with my brain not my fist.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah.
Well, how about you think this over
right after I break your nose.
Come on!
What the hell do you
two think you're doing?
The first rule of survival is to
count on others in your party,
not to kill each other!
You two are standing here,
ready to fight each other
and we haven't even started yet!
Are you crazy or just stupid?
Which one is it?
Now come on, suck it up both
... let's get this show on the road!
You heard her, Ed.
- You heard her, too.
- Okay, alright!
I'm sorry, Ed.
I just get a little
pissed off real fast.
Me too.
Okay...
Can we finally get
started on our trip now?
By all means.
Okay.
Let's do this thing.
The first thing a person needs to do
when they find themselves in
a survival type of situation...
is to get their bearing.
If you're about where they are, decide
whether they're gonna stay still...
and wait for rescue...
for and facilitate self rescue.
That's where we're headed.
To that point up there.
That's far.
It's only a few miles away and right
now we've got just enough time...
to make it there, and build
ourselves a shelter for the night...
So let's keep going.
That's really far.
A little.
Yes.
Yes
Okay.
Are you absolutely sure about this?
Okay.
Okay.
Thank you very much.
I owe you one.
Professor, you had call...
Forget about the calls, Thomas.
We have a live case. Let's go.
And where are we going?
Road trip.
Cool, where to this time?
It's a small town called Morningside.
It's a couple of hours drive north.
They just had an attack last night.
An attack?
That's odd, isn't it?
Yeah, it's different,
but it's happened before.
But this will be the first time we get
to be there just after it happened.
Cool.
This gonna be huge for us, Thomas.
Cool.
Is the van ready?
Yeah, ready. Cast up.
Ready to go. Just like always.
Good, you drive.
- I gotta change clothes.
