( Radio static )

Tully, can you hear me?

Can anyone hear me?

If anyone's out there,

come back.

( Static hissing )

We need to get out of here.

Yeah.

I know.

I just don't want to send us

farther down the mountain.

Okay.

- Hold on.

- Yeah.

- You ready?

- Beth:
Yeah.

- ( Engine roars )

- Here we go.

Come on!

Come on!

Please, please, please.

( Engine straining )

( John growls )

Damn it.

(engine dies)

We can't move.

Rudy...

Rudy, I couldn't find Mo

and the lines are out.

But we should probably just

head over to the neighbors'

and look for him.

Rudy?

Rudy?

Rudy!

Rudy!

You've got to be kidding me.

That was no normal storm.

I was thinking the same thing.

-( Metal creaking )

- Dad?

These windows

aren't gonna hold.

- Derrick:
Hello?

- Did you hear that?

- Derrick:
Anyone?

- Jenn:
It sounds like Derrick.

Derrick:
Jenn!

I need to get you out.

Hold on, guys.

- Derrick!

- Derrick!

( Groans )

I'm gonna get you out! Hold on!

Derrick!

Rudy!

Rudy!

Rudy!

Come on.

It's not much further.

(grunts)

Keep g0il19-

Tully:
This is Tully in the Town Hall

of Normal, Alaska.

- Here.

- If you're receiving this,

- Thanks.

- please acknowledge. Over.

( Radio static )

You reach him?

Nobody.

Not John, not anybody.

The radio's working fine.

It's like...

nobody can even hear us.

How is that possible?

I have no idea.

Emergency teams

should have been here hours ago.

It's like-- it's like the whole town

just dropped off the map.

So what are you gonna do?

I'm hoping I wake up

( scoffs )

I'll get more supplies.

This is Tully in the Town Hall

of Normal, Alaska.

If you're receiving this,

please acknowledge. Over.

( Static hissing )

I'm worried about Rudy.

Mary's a smart girl.

I'm sure Rudy'll be fine.

Come on.

We're almost there.

- Derrick:
You okay?

- Jennifer:
Yeah.

Jennifer:
You okay?

Yeah.

I'll live.

I'm sorry about your friend.

Yeah, me, too.

John:

Okay, let's keep moving, guys.

Come on.

Let's go.

Tully on radio:

Mayday, Mayday.

This is Tully in the town

of Normal, Alaska.

Is there anybody out there?

Please respond.

Mayday, mayday-

If you're receiving this,

please acknowledge.

If anyone is out there,

please acknowledge. Over.

Tully on radio:

If you're receiving this,

- please acknowledge.

- ( static hissing )

- Tully.

- John.

Oh, thank God.

Jennifer and Beth okay?

They're both

a bit banged up.

John:
We've got a casualty

on the mountain.

Look, we need you in town.

Tully:
How quickly

can you get here?

We gotta check on Rudy

and then I'll be there.

Okay. Hurl'Y-

Okay.

Just sit tight, okay?

Okay.

Sit tight.

Sitting tight.

Rudy!

Rudy!

Hey' hey!

Stop!

Stop the-- stop!

Stop!

John:
Mary, what are you

doing out here?

Oh, thank God.

I have been going

- out of my mind.

- Where's Rudy?

- Where's Rudy?

- He's gone.

What do you mean "gone"?

I've searched for him everywhere

I can possibly think,

- but I can't find him.

- Okay, okay. Calm down.

Just tell us what happened.

Mo ran away and I went to look

for him for, like, two seconds.

And then when I came back,

Rudy was just gone.

And he left me this note.

"It's all my fault."

What was?

- What was all his fault?

- I don't know.

He was talking about

his snow globe.

I tried to tell him

it was all nonsense,

but he wouldn't listen.

- He's alone out there.

- He can't have gone far. Come on.

- We should split up.

- No way. We are sticking together.

No, you guys

keep going that way.

I'm gonna head over

to Maple Road.

He's got a little hideout

over there.

Makes sense.

You know it does.

Yeah, I'll go with her.

Okay, you're with me.

Whatever happens,

- meet back at Town Hall.

- I'm coming, too.

Mary, you should

go back to your family.

No, I'm going.

This is my fault.

I'm gonna help find him.

Why is he blaming himself?

What does any of this

have to do with him?

He's got a very active imagination.

What was Mary saying

about the snow globe?

This morning, Rudy said

there was a crack in the globe.

Just like there was in town.

You think he imagined that?

I don't know.

It sounds crazy.

But he was right.

I mean, he had to know somehow.

God, I hope he's okay.

Rudy!

Jennifer:
Rudy!

So this hideout that

your brother's got.

What is it?

It used to be

an old mine access.

But if you ask Rudy,

it's his magic fortress.

You know, from that silly

Dragon of the Crown.

Oh, what are you talking about?

That game rocks.

- Are you serious?

- Hell, yeah.

Throw the crown in the volcano.

Kill the dragon.

I grew up on that game.

I guess my little bro isn't

as much of a dork after all.

Rudy!

Rudy!

Derrick...

are you okay?

You know that Greg was

the closest thing I had to a brother?

I mean, what's going on?

How could any of this

be happening?

(sighs)

You saved our entire

family today, Derrick.

I wouldn't be alive

if it weren't for you.

No one would have been

on that mountain if it weren't for me.

No, if it hadn't been for you,

we wouldn't have ever

gotten off that mountain.

You saved us.

(sniffs )

Now help me find my brother.

Okay.

Rudy.

Are you okay?

- What are you doing here?

- I'm looking for you.

Okay.

What can I do for you?

Did-- did you make this?

No.

- Jeez, where'd you get this?

- It came as a secret gift.

My dad thought you made it.

Me?

First I've seen it.

It's exquisite.

Everything that happens

inside here

happens for real.

- Is that right?

- You don't believe me?

No, no.

It's just that--

( ticking )

Well, that just--

That just can't be.

Rudy!

- I know you're here!

- Rudy!

Rudy!

- Derrick:
Rudy?

- Rudy!

Rudy!

Let's get a closer look.

Jennifer:
Rudy!

Jennifer:
Rudy!

Rudy!

I don't think he's here, Jennifer.

Tell you what,

we'll hang out for a bit.

Maybe he'll show up.

Okay.

Rudy:
It's like

the Dragon of the Crown.

The crown, it's cursed.

So you think

this snow globe is cursed.

Or maybe the globe

cursed the town.

Yeah.

And it's my fault

because I opened the present.

Oh, Rudy.

There are a lot of myths

about cursed objects.

Sometimes the curse

is a punishment.

Sometimes the curse

is a test.

But, I mean...

even if this is a curse,

it's not your fault.

( Sighs )

So you do believe me?

Well, there's certainly

a lot of things here

I can't explain.

But the idea that this globe

is somehow destroying

our town is just...

I mean,

there's no markings,

there's no serial number.

There's certainly no

"Made in China."

I don't know about a curse,

but this is certainly

the strangest thing

that I have ever seen.

( Static hissing )

Mayday, Mayday.

If anyone can hear this,

- please respond.

- ( static resumes )

If somebody heard you,

they'd be here by now.

Larry, I'm--

I'm trying my best here.

Look, Tully...

whatever's going on

is gonna drag this town

straight to hell

before it's done.

Okay, Larry.

You're scaring the people.

- Just--

- We gotta get outta here now.

I understand that, Larry.
