car that went off the road?

One of those people that died from the

virus or whatever they're calling it.

But I don't think that had

anything to do with us.

Let's go down

and have a look.

What the hell

happened here?

I don't think

a fire did this.

What is it?

Where were you?

What?

When you woke up,

where were you?

I was over here.

I mean...

Here.

I think I was over here.

I mean, it was

so goddamn dark, but...

Yeah, I think it was

somewhere around here.

Why?

Liam?

Look, we've got to talk.

When I got out of here,

something was going on with me.

I didn't know about it

at first.

I mean, I...

or I don't know,

a virus or something.

I mean, the birds

were falling

out of the goddamn sky,

for f***'s sakes.

What are you talking about?

All right, uh...

The girl, the one in the

car, the one that died.

Yeah.

That was me.

What?

I didn't know about it. I...

I mean, I didn't

do it on purpose.

I didn't even know

why I was doing it.

Doing what?

Killing them.

It was like I was just sucking

the life right out of them

just by coming close.

Look I know

it sounds insane,

but it happened,

all right?

It happened. I mean, people

would just walk up to me and...

They'd just drop,

they'd f***ing drop.

Jane, that's why

you found me

hiding out all the way

back to my shed.

I was just trying to

keep away from everybody.

- This is crazy.

- Jane, listen to me!

That was me.

I killed those people.

But, look, look,

whatever it was,

whatever I had inside of me is gone now.

How can you be

sure about that?

No, please trust me.

I know I'm fine.

Why are you telling

me this now?

Because look at where

you're standing.

Whatever happened here,

it happened to both of us.

Yeah I know that. I said

that I was standing here,

but it was

so goddamn dark

I could have been all the

way over there for all I know.

So you didn't notice anything

different about yourself?

- No.

- I mean, nothing even...

I mean, remotely weird

happen to you

since you crawled out

of this place?

No, and I certainly

didn't kill anybody.

Jane, wait!

Jane! Jane, stop!

Goddammit, I'm sorry!

Oh, you're sorry?

How do I even know it's safe

to be around you right now?

What if that thing

comes back on?

- It won't.

- And what if it does?

And what if you

end up killing me?

Have you thought

about that?

You should have

told me before, Liam.

Hold on a minute,

honey, okay?

Hey there,

you guys all right?

Yeah, we're fine,

just leave us alone.

Ma'am, are you all right?

I can't do this.

Jane!

Sir?

What do you want?

Look, we're just...

Hold on there.

Are you Liam Hartwell?

Yeah.

We've been looking for you.

On account of your truck

has been found right down...

Liam?

What's going on?

- Oh, my god!

- No, no, no! Jane!

Jane, wait! Jane!

Jane! Stop!

Just stop! Stop!

Let me go!

Don't touch me.

Just stop! Look,

you're not gonna die.

Okay? I promise you.

You're not gonna die.

What the hell just happened?

We've got to get the hell

out of here. Please!

Please.

Trust me.

Mom?

Mom, are you there?

Mom?

What are we doing here?

Walk that way.

What?

Jane, just walk

that way. Please.

Stop!

Look, if you don't tell me

what we're doing...

Now back away.

Jesus.

What the hell just happened?

You moved.

Are you saying I did this?

No, I did.

I've been doing it

all along

and you've been

stopping it,

without even knowing.

Oh, my god.

We've got to get

to a hospital.

What, are you crazy?

There's got to be

some tests they can do.

Blood analysis, some kind

of brain scan, something.

I've been to the hospital.

They scanned me

because of the accident

and nothing weird

popped up.

Well, you weren't the one

killing people, were you?

You wanna walk into a

hospital and tell them what?

- Jane...

- That you're radiating death?

You saw how I reacted

when you told me.

Why don't you just imagine

that on a much larger scale?

We have to be smart

about this.

If we go to a hospital a couple

of counties down from here,

somewhere where the police

aren't actually looking for me.

Look, I know it sounds risky,

but I need to figure out

what this thing is.

Once we do that,

hopefully, we can make

the police understand.

Look, we can tell a doctor that

you've been having trouble remembering

because of the accident.

I mean, that much is true.

They'll give you a ct scan.

That's at least

what they did for me.

I'm sorry. I should

have told you.

We are in this

together now.

How many days ago

was this accident?

Three nights ago.

You really should have come

to the hospital right away.

Mr. Hartwell?

Is everything okay?

Yes, sorry.

Right, let's get you up

to that scan right away.

Come with me.

Okay, everything's

all set to go.

So, ma'am, if you could

just step outside.

No, no, no, she's got

to stay in here with me.

Sir, the scan is only

gonna take a few minutes.

- If you could just step outside.

- I can't be in here alone.

Yeah, he gets

claustrophobic sometimes.

Okay, well, we have some

medication we can give you for that.

I'm sorry, you can't have

anybody else in the room.

Can I just go

in the booth with you?

I mean, at the very least,

he'll be able to see me.

Please.

Okay, we're all set to go here

so just remember

to stay still

and we will be done

in no time at all.

All right, here we go.

So you didn't see anything

weird on that monitor?

I don't know, I mean, I wouldn't

even know what to look for.

But the girl,

how did she react?

Did it seem like she

might have seen anything?

I don't think so.

What's taking them

so goddamn long?

A new lead today

in the mysterious death

of a woodmore county officer.

The officer's son confirms

hearing his mother

speak the name

Liam Hartwell

only moments

before her death,

which led police

to Hartwell's home

where they made

a shocking discovery

just behind me here

in a field opposite the home.

One more dead body

showing signs of death

identical to those

found earlier this week.

has officially declared Hartwell

armed and dangerous.

And they are asking

anyone that...

Sh*t! We have to get

out of here.

F***!

Wait, wait, no.

Maybe we can just

explain it to them.

We're here, aren't we?

We were getting tests done.

Tests? Liam, you killed

one of their own.

These people don't

wanna talk to you.

They wanna bring you in.

Liam, they will separate us.

Mr. Hartwell? I was just

on my way to see you.

Is everything

all right?

What does it say?

Pardon?

The scan,

what did it say?

We're not

doing this here, Mr. Hartwell.

Look, you can either come with

me to consultation right now

or you can just schedule

another appointment.

- What the hell?

- Tell me what the scan says.

Liam, they're coming.

- Tell me.

- Nothing.

What do you mean nothing?

You must have read it wrong.

You're fine. There's

nothing the matter with you.

Liam, come on.

Hey! Hey! Police!

Okay, you take that one,

I'll go this way.
