- Come on!

There you go. You right?

That's good.

We're gonna have you outta here

in no time. That's it.

Simon, if you see

the slightest move, mate, you tell us.

Liz? I'm gonna take Sherry across.

OK? I'll be straight back for you.

We'll be absolutely fine.

We'll be absolutely fine.

It's alright, love.

That's it. That's great.

You're across the water right now,

so I just want you to keep breathing...

- Can you see anything?

- Stay relaxed.

Russell, shut the f*** up.

We'll be fine. We'll all be fine.

We'll all be fine.

Just keep going.

You're almost there.

Just keep breathing.

That's it.

Keep... keep breathing.

It's alright, love. Just take your time.

It's not alright.

I can't hold on.

I have to stop.

It's alright, Mary-Ellen.

You're gonna be fine.

Just keep breathing.

- You're gonna be fine.

- What's she doing? She's stopping.

She'll get us all killed if she doesn't hurry.

I can't! I can't! I can't!

Come on.

You're doing fine.

I can't hold on.

Is she right?

Oh, she...she's frozen.

Sherry, Sherry, Sherry. Come on.

We're going. We're going.

- I can't hold on!

- Wait a minute.

- Don't you f***ing touch me!

- Oi! Oi! Come on!

Don't you f***ing

come anywhere near me!

- You f*** off!

- Calm down, mate.

Don't you put her on that rope.

Fuckhead,

the rope won't take three people OK?

I am not going to let that woman

endanger the lives of my wife

and my child!

Slow down and think about

what you're doing.

- Why don't you f*** off?!

- Get down!

- Jesus Christ. Get him down!

- Stay away! Stay away from me!

Get down now!

F***ing don't do that, you stupid f***er.

- Alright, Sherry. I'm here.

- Are you crazy? Get off the rope!

- There shouldn't be three people...

- We know that, mate!

Bloody English idiot.

Keep going, Sher. It's alright. I'm here.

Just... We're right behind you, Sher.

- Just hold on.

- Something just moved.

Mary-Ellen, Allen and Sherry

are on the rope behind you.

It's alright. I'm here.

You'll be across in no time.

Just move, Mary Ellen!

There's two people behind you. Move!

OK, Sher. I'm here. I'm right behind you.

Right behind you, Sher. Keep going.

She's not moving.

For Christ's sake, move!

I can't.

- You can!

- Come on.

Neil, she's frozen. Get her moving!

Keep go...

Neil, she's freaked. Get her moving!

Move!

Move, for God's sake! Move!

Neil?

- Neil, come on!

- Neil?!

- What's happening?

- Oh, sh*t!

Move! Move!

No, Sher! No, Sher! No...

Oh! Oh!

- Just hold on tight.

- Daddy!

- Oh, God!

- Move! Move!

Do something! Do something!

Don't let go. Keep going!

Come on. Swim!

Oh, my God!

You alright? You alright?

Oh, f***.

Kate, get back from the water.

No.

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Daddy!

No!

Oh! Oh, my God!

It can't be long now.

Someone will find us soon.

It'll be alright.

Where are you, you... bastards?

Sorry. Does that hurt?

No. It's... It's fine.

I just... I think... I think I sprained it.

Oh, God!

- How are they?

- Um...Sherry's in... in shock.

And Elizabeth's not doing very well.

She needs to...take her medication.

Where is it?

She...

She left it on the back of the boat,

so its probably floated away.

But there's painkillers

in the, uh...the first aid kit.

They might not come till the morning.

If I hadn't brought us here,

none of this would have happened.

It's not your fault. It's not your fault.

- I'm sorry.

- Don't be sorry. Come here.

- Sorry.

- Come on, it's OK.

It's not your fault. No giving up yet, OK?

Alright? Don't give up.

Don't give up. It's OK.

OK.

There. That's better.

Now let's go find this first aid kit.

Where the f*** is it?

We're dealing with an animal, right?

I mean, at the end of the day,

it's just a stupid animal.

So, I was thinking, maybe

we could make some sort of a trap

and have enough time to swim across.

Jesus, mate.

The only way

we're gonna get off this bloody island

is if someone turns up

with a rather large boat, you know?

I just don't think that's gonna happen.

Do you?

I know that's not gonna happen

but the tide is moving in quick

and people are falling apart.

We've got to do something now.

Bait. We don't have any bait either.

I know we don't have bait.

If we could somehow hook the f***er

on this line with the anchor

and keep it still for just a little bit...

We can use one of the lifejackets

to help keep it afloat.

Right. So, that's great. You wanna

go fishing? Oh, that's nice.

Well, the results are in, Peter,

and you're a f***ing genius.

-Shut the f*** up, Simon.

-Well, mate, I'm sorry.

Am I the only one who's noticed

what's going on here?

I mean, there's an animal out there

and it's... it's hunting us.

I mean, why is it still after us?

I dunno.

And it's... it's big.

You know, and it's like... it's like

a f***ing steam train with teeth

and...and...and numbnuts here

thinks that we're gonna hold it back

with that bit of dental floss.

Just shut the f*** up, OK?

How much time do we have?

- Um, maybe half an hour. At most.

- We've got a half an hour, OK?

So we can either try and trap this thing

and... and keep it still

for long enough for us to get across,

or we can sit here on our asses

and in a half a f***ing hour,

we'll be up to our necks in it.

F***ing Americans.

Yeah. Righto, mate. I'm with ya. Alright?

We haven't got any bait.

Yes.

No.

- No.

- No. I can't.

- Yes, you can.

- I can't!

- I have spent years fighting...

- I said no.

..battling for one more year, one

more moment of knowing my daughter.

I can't.

- I haven't come this far...

- No.

..to go down in some pile of mud

in the middle of nowhere

because you're not prepared

to make a sacrifice.

I'm not gonna let my daughter die.

Oh, my God.

Wait. Wait.

What the f***'s he doing?

They'll eat anything, right?

Hey?

When we swim, you're to go first.

You're not to try to help me.

But how are you going to cross?

One of the others is going to help you.

Well, what about you?

I'll be fine, darling. Let's just get you safe.

Oh, my.

What do you reckon?

Oh, sh*t.

Need some help with that?

What?

Never mind.

Here, give it to me.

- You're good at that.

- Yeah.

28 years old and I can tie a knot.

Never been anywhere.

Yeah, well, travelling's overrated.

Trust me.

Here we go.

- Who's gonna work the trap?

- Well, doesn't it just sit there?

Crocs sense vibration in the water

through their skin.

We need to keep the bait moving

so it thinks it's alive,

otherwise it won't go for it.

- I'll do it.

- No. You can't with your hand. I'll do it.

- Have you done much fishing?

- Yeah. Once, when I was six.

Well, nothing's changed.

You watch the rope

and the minute you see

that life preserver move at all,

you let us know

and then get the hell outta here, alright?

- I got it.

- And... and then what?

Wait for it to take the bait,

then we head for the other side.

Come on, let's go. Come on.

You sure you wanna be

the last one across?

No. Not really.
