carved right here, connect you to

your grandmother. [rumbling] Let's get out of here. Wait! Wait!

What? Do you hear something? [water sloshing] Oh, boy. Oh, my God. That's bad. She's building a dam right in front of our eyes. She's sealing us in,

you idiot. Come on! [explosion]

Yeah. [explosion] This tunnel leads

to the silo. Cut across the bridge

and out. [klaxon blaring] It's huge. The developers

aren't finished here. They're gonna turn

Cedar Gate into a city. Now you know why she

feels so threatened. Where's Jackson? [klaxon continues] [explosion] Jackson? Jackson!

Deadmarsh! Jackson,

what are you doing? You keep going. I'll try to slow it down. Kaley. That's suicide.

Don't do this. Deadmarsh! Deadmarsh, you don't

have anything to prove! [explosion] You want to bet? [rumbling] Anyway, it's too late for me. I got nailed hours ago. Be the preacher.

Get the flock out of here. Jackson,

I was wrong about you. Jackson? [chuckles]

No, you weren't. Come on, baby.

Follow me. Jackson! [explosion] Jackson!

We have to go!

Come on! [fire crackling] She's beautiful. We have to get

across that bridge, it's the only way out. [screams] What are you doing? Connelly,

get off the bridge! I have to talk to her. She's beautiful. You don't know

anything about it, except that it's dangerous. Connelly, just come back. She's a sentient creature. We need to respect

her right to exist! We need to find

another way out of here! She deserves respect! She deserves respect. [screams] [screams]

No! Grab my hand. Grab my hand! [rumbling] Grab my hand. No! [zapping] Come on, you b*tch! [explosion] Hey!

[clicking] Officer Deadman!

[clicking] What's up?

[clicking] I sure could use a light. [clicking] Bailey. [laughing]

[clicking] You knew I'd come back,

didn't you? Let's just say

I'm not real surprised. [explosion] You framed me,

you bastard. You planted evidence,

and I was innocent. You didn't kill

Tim Jefferson, doesn't mean

you were innocent. What about

Olivia Red Bear? [explosion] I wasn't charged

with rape, dumb ass. [explosion] I was on trial

for murder. [explosion] And you lied

under oath. That's right,

Bailey, I did. What's the punishment

going to be? What do you think? We both rot in hell? After you. [click]

[zapping] [screaming] [metal clanking] [screaming] Don't let me go!

Just hang on to me! [screaming] Hang onto me! Please, don't let me go!

I'm not gonna let you go! [screams] [creature chittering] No!

Kaley! [screams] No! Kaley! Kaley! [screaming] [zapping] [gasps] Don't let me go! [speaking Ojibway] [speaking Ojibway] [speaking Ojibway] [Woman speaking Ojibway] You got me? I got you. [car door closes] [police siren in distance] Hey. Douglas. You saved me...again. No, you saved all of us. What are you

talking about? Kajay Manitou. [speaking Ojibway] Heal the Earth

and heal each other. We are life. We are love. We do not fear. That's my grandmother's poem. It's not a poem. It's an Ojibway prayer. You were acknowledging

the sanctity of the Earth creature, and I think it...

forgave us. I saw you fall. What? Remember when

you told me that I'm not afraid

of anything? Yeah. Well, that's not true. I've always trusted that

God will take care of me... ...but the vision I saw, that was my fear. And when your hand-- when it-- when it slipped

out of mine... But you didn't let go. If you saw me slipping away, why did you keep holding

my hand? Faith. You see, faith and fear can't survive

in the same place. And there was no way

I was gonna let you go. I'm sorry. Did I-- Did I say

something wrong? No. It's just been

one of those days. Yeah. You know, I--

I don't know if I mentioned, but I'm leaving

the country.

What? Now? In a week, ten days. I'm heading north to work

with an Ojibway Midaywin. I don't suppose you'd

like to come with. You know you could learn

a little bit more about your

grandmother's people, and conditions won't

be very luxurious. And, you know, the weather

will be really challenging. And, you know,

I'm just thinking--

Yes. You don't have a job

here anymore so-- Douglas? What? Yes, Douglas. I'll come with you. Yes? Yes. You know it's gonna

be really cold, and I just thought-- [wheelchair motor whirrs] What are you doing here? [Symes]

I can't do this. You'll do what I tell you. Give it six months

and reopen it. Are you joking? People are dead. We can't just

reopen Cedar Gates. Fine, call it Pine Ridge, or North Country Inn,

whatever. Are you sure

that's wise? Yes, I'm sure. You worry too much. There's nothing

to be afraid of. Are you afraid? Afraid? Afraid of what? [clicking] [grumbles]

Darn thing. [thunderclap] Closed-Captioned By
