This is your whole plan

you hadn't thought of yet?

- He's never gonna let you do it.

- I am not gonna ask him permission. Okay?

- He has a rifle down there, Ed!

- I got it, I know.

We are the ones he trusts

and he almost blew our heads off!

Christ, if he knows you're gonna

stick him with a f***ing syringe!

Now look, if he's not going

to come with us willingly

then I need to go and get him

in that car no matter what.

Dr. Nick agrees with me.

Then Dr. Nick can come here

and give him to him.

- Martin...

- Shut the f*** up!

- How long were you out there for?

- What were you two talking about in here?

- Marty, we're just here to help you!

- You and who else?

- You and who else? Who else, who else, who?

- Nobody, Martin!

You told me nobody knew

you were coming here.

- Nobody else does.

- What does Dr. Nick know?

- What? Marty...

- Does Dr. Nick know? Answer me!

Shut up, Lyla! Answer the question!

And do not lie to me, Edward!

Yes, okay? Dr. Nick knows

about this, but...

- You let this get out.

- Look, we can fix this.

You have no idea what you've done.

Marty, wait.

We're all dead anyway.

F***.

I need something to cover this!

Lyla! Lyla!

- Call an ambulance!

- We gotta get an ambulance.

Lyla, let go of him and call an ambulance!

Now! Go! Jesus!

Come on, Marty!

Lyla!

No, no, no. Marty, Marty!

Marty, look at me!

Marty! Look at me! Marty!

Where are they?

- Who?

- The ambulance.

I couldn't.

What? You didn't call anyone?

I couldn't.

- Lyla, you didn't call anybody?

- He cut the phone line.

No, we... we gotta get the f***

out of here. Get up.

- We can't leave him like this.

- Come on, get up! Get up! Lyla, get up!

Stop it! Stop it! You don't f***ing care!

You don't f***ing care!

- Look at him! Look at him!

- Stop it! Stop!

Stop, stop, stop. Look...

Look at him!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Stop, stop.

Marty!

Listen to me. Listen to me.

Listen to me. We have to go.

Okay? We have to get the f*** out of here.

- We have to go to the police.

- Why?

Because the longer we stay here,

the worse this is gonna look. All right?

Okay?

Okay?

Just stay with me, all right?

Just stay with me.

Okay? All right.

Lyla, shut up. Shut up.

Shut up, Lyla. Lyla, shut up!

- Where are you going?

- I am not going to jail for him.

Jesus Christ.

Hello?

Can you hear me?

We're here to help!

- Just stay here, okay?

- What are you doing?

There could be somebody hurt down here.

I need... I need to go check it out.

- No, no, please don't go.

- Lyla, Lyla, Lyla, Lyla, stop!

- Please don't go! Please don't go!

- Stop! Stop it! Goddammit! Stop it!

- Ed?

- Don't come down here!

- What is it?

- What happened?

I don't know. I think I blew a fuse!

What's down there?

- I can't see anything!

- Well, turn the lights back on!

- Did that do anything?

- Yeah!

Ed! Ed!

Ed! Ed! Ed!

Ed!

Ed, what happened? Ed!

Ed!

Ed, what is it?

Ed!

What is it! What is it? What's happening!

Lyla, stop it! Listen to me!

Take the keys! Go to the road!

Go to the road!

Go, Lyla, go! Go!

Lyla, go!

Please, please, please. Hello?

Hey!

Hey! Stop! Stop!

Sh*t!

Please! Please help me! Please help me!

Please, please, I need your help!

- What's the matter?

- I need your help!

Has there been an accident?

Yes! My brother... my brother,

he's been hurt! Please!

- Where are you coming from?

- Please, please! There's no time!

- We have to go now!

- Ma'am? Where are you coming from?

The house... the house

at the end of the street!

Way down at the end?

Please, I need a phone!

I need to call the police!

The police? Why would you wanna do that?

We were attacked!

My brother's dead!

What? Was it an animal?

Please, we don't have time!

Please we have to go now!

- Ma'am. Was it an animal?

- No!

Well, what was it?

A pod!

A government experiment

or something! I don't know!

Please! We need the police!

Ma'am? It wasn't a government experiment.

It's not getting better.

That thing down there,

it's got something in its blood.

It infected me here or something.

I swear to God, if you let it

scratch you... it'll infect you.

F*** me, man!

F*** you!

I did it. I did it!

I did it!

I did it.

Martin, I did it!

Lyla!

Lyla, I did it!

Lyla!

Lyla!

Come back!

I did it!

I did...

F***!

Confirmation?

- It's Smith.

- Go ahead.

Oh, I found it.

But the yokels have killed it

before I even got here.

Goddamn it!

Any survivors?

No.

Which means we're getting closer.

Is there any evidence of a colony?

Not yet.

I'll check the woods.

Forward your coordinates.

A team is on its way.

Got it.

F***!
