Red Dawn Page #2

Come on! Come on!

Jump in!

Go, go, go!

No, no, no!

No, that's my son!

They're just boys, okay? They're just boys.

- What do we do?

- Just follow us!

Come on!

Oh, sh*t!

- Jed!

- I know, I see it.

Jed!

Sh*t.

Come on!

- Go!

- Yes.

Anyone hurt?

I don't know.

I don't think so.

We had to leave, okay?

I'm Pete.

They're from out of town.

San Diego or something.

They just saw their dad get killed.

Okay, listen.

I want you to take these guys

and see what you can find in there.

I'll get the generator going.

Jed, we got to find out what's going on.

My parents, what about my mom?

Robert, you're right. That's your job.

So, find a radio or TV

and get us reception. Get it working, okay?

- But Jed, we can't just stay here.

- Say yes, Robert.

Yeah.

Okay.

Hook it in there.

Coming to you live from Seattle.

There.

- Is that it?

- No, no. Go back.

Freeze, freeze.

...no longer controlled

by the government of the United States.

Don't go outside

unless it's an absolute emergency.

Accidents are more likely to happen when

people move about unnecessarily.

Accidents?

If you've become separated from someone

and you don't know where they are,

a hotline has been set up to help you.

Hey, what the hell, man?

Bullshit.

What does that mean?

It means we're screwed.

Hey!

Hey! Do you hear that?

Matty, kill the lights. Let's go!

What are you doing?

I'm going to draw them away

and hope like hell they take the bait.

I'll come with you.

No, you're gonna be cutting the lights

and keeping those a**holes quiet.

- What if I cut the...

- Just do what I say.

Come on, Matty.

No!

Stop! Hold your fire.

- What did I tell you to do?

- It wasn't me.

You almost took my head off!

I thought they got past you.

You give me the gun.

I'm not giving you dick.

Who the hell put you in charge, anyway?

Okay, let's compromise.

What?

More?

Sh*t.

Give me that.

Danny.

Man!

Your dad said you were up here.

You saw him? Was he okay?

Yeah, but it's bad down there, man.

Where are our troops, Jed?

I don't know.

Toni.

You hurt?

No, I'm fine.

Fine.

Is Erica here?

I think they took her.

Everybody inside.

Wake up.

What's wrong?

That a**hole Pete and his buddy

took off with all the food.

I need you guys

to take anything we can use,

put it in the truck and

hide it in the woods.

And that prick knows

where we are so keep your eyes open.

Matty, come with me. Let's go. Get up.

North Korea.

It doesn't make any sense.

There's a bigger picture here.

They had to have had help.

You think it's like this everywhere?

I don't think they've come all this way

just for Spokane and Seattle.

Where do you think Dad is?

Probably down there.

With anyone else they think is a threat

or they can get information from.

You think Erica is in there?

Your girl is a fighter.

She'll be okay.

We got to get them out of there.

We can't just call 911, Matty.

We got to stay put for now and just pray

like hell it doesn't get any worse.

Hey!

Hey! They found us.

There's no one here.

I swear. This is where they were.

Son of a b*tch. It's Pete.

Holy sh*t. Daryl, that's your dad.

What? Let me see.

Quiet. Stay down.

Jesus Christ.

Boys,

it's Mayor Jenkins.

Captain Cho here is the acting prefect

of this district.

He says you seriously injured

some of his men

and he's given me his word,

if you turn yourselves in,

no one is going to be hurt. Okay?

Boys?

Daryl?

Son?

I'd like you to come home.

Guys, shouldn't we do what he says?

What do we do, Jed?

We don't move.

- But if my dad trusts this guy...

- Daryl, shut up.

Everybody stay still.

Boys.

If youre out there,

if you can hear me, listen up.

It's a tough situation all the way around.

A lot of tough choices.

I love you both.

I hope you know that.

What I'm going to ask you to do

may be very difficult,

but I want you boys

to do what I would do.

I want you to go to war

and stop this piece of sh*t.

Or die trying.

Tom!

- No! No!

- Matty! Stay here!

They're going to find us.

Guys, what are we even doing up here?

We should just go back.

Matt, I'm sorry.

My parents are still down there.

I'm worried something's

going to happen to my dad.

Maybe he could help us.

He can't help us, Daryl.

He's helping them.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means he's helping them.

You saw him, he just stood there

and watched.

What else was he supposed to do?

Our dad made a choice.

And Daryl's dad's got to make one, too.

We all do.

We're going home.

Robert,

your parents aren't down there.

I saw it. I didn't know how to tell you.

We can't go home.

We can't keep running.

What are we supposed to do?

I'm going to fight.

I'm going to fight.

Now this is easier for me

because I'm used to it.

But the rest of you

are going to have a tougher choice.

Look, I don't want to sell it to you,

it's too ugly for that.

It's ugly, and it's hard.

But when you're fighting

in your own backyard,

and you're fighting for your family,

it all hurts a little less

and it makes a little more sense.

And for them, this is just some place.

But for us,

this is our home.

Obviously, we don't stand a chance

against these guys in a straight-up fight.

But if you look at the Viet Cong

or the Mujahideen,

or even the Minutemen, it's clear.

Even the tiniest flea

can drive a big dog crazy.

So, the first thing we have to do

is learn how to work together.

Become a unit.

And that's going to take some time.

That's gross.

It doesn't take much to pull a trigger.

But keeping your sh*t together

in a firefight is a whole different story.

So we're going to have to evolve.

Rewire our reflexes.

Learn new skills and adapt old ones.

There's almost half a million faces

down there and they can't track them all.

So, we'll find people we can trust.

Friends with their ears to the ground

who can help us get the things

we need to fight back.

We'll watch what they do.

Study their tactics, their routines.

The more we know,

the easier it will be to hurt them.

But we'll need to be smart.

And we'll need to be patient.

We'll hit them on our terms.

When we're good and ready.

We inherited our freedom.

Now it's up to all of us to fight for it.

These things are bad ass.

Not if you know anything.

We need to get better weapons.

Your livelihood is our utmost concern.

We are creating a better world

where you and your family

can be taken care of.

Forty seconds.

The weapons and ammo, get it all.

Robert, you okay?

Yeah.

Let's go.

Come on, come on!

We've got what we need. Let's go!

Holy sh*t!

Hey, Jed. Isn't this C4?

I can't. This is stupid.

Yes, you can. Come on, just sight it up.

Now, one shot, behind the shoulder.

Just relax.

Breathe out and squeeze.

Sh*t.

You got him.

What is this?

You drink the blood latte,

or the deer's spirit, or some sh*t?

It's not "some sh*t," Robert.

It's tradition, Robert.

Drink up.

Dude, it's not that bad actually.

No?

What did it taste like?

Well, you know.
