But that's before the new scenes, right?
cares about the scenes?
She was totally vague.
Yes, she was. We all were.
Lens is cracked, focus ring broke.
Do you think it's fixable?
I guess it is cheaper to get a new one.
The camera is busted man. It's over.
We can use my dad's
camera. It's got slow...
Hello? / i?
Hey Alice, it's Joe Lamb.
Hi / i.
So we have some new
scenes for the movie,
and Charles and I are
hoping you'll be in them.
Oh,... no. I'm done with that. / i
I need this film developed as soon
as possible. Can you do it overnight?
A**hole, no one can do it overnight.
You want to buy some pot?
No, no, thank you.
Well, what is the fastest you can do?
I can make it a rush.
and get your film back in three days.
And what is your sister up to?
The hot one, not the other one.
I don't know.
watching the crash on the news
Yes, I saw it.
I should go.
Wait, hold on. I'll come over,
I'll bring the scenes.
- No, no!
I'll be right there. It's a good idea.
I don't care what Charles wants.
I said 'no' on the phone.
I know you totally did.
I know that's true but...
Now you are at my house.
I am, which...
I don't understand why you guys
keep working on that stupid movie.
You should go.
What's this?
He was just inviting me to a party.
Good morning, Mr Dainard.
She's not going to your party.
Yes sir.
You, get out of here.
You go home and you
don't come back here!
I don't want to see you.
Ally come inside.
Ally, I'm in the kitchen.
I'll do it.
What?
Cut! That was mint!
Oh my God, with the train, so good.
Joe, reload the cap gun.
- Okay.
We'll shoot another angle next.
Alice that was mint.
Martin go over faster next time.
I'll try Charles. I was just
crying out last night man.
Guys, did it really look good?
You look awesome.
What do you think happened?
You mean why he crashed the train?
I just got a horrible feeling.
Dude, what are you doing?
That whole thing is an Air Force train.
What?
I make models, like plastic ones.
You know, go home, paint them.
And he's not embarrassed by that.
Whose talking, math camp.
Thanks.
Can I have some coffee please?
Cream on the side.
He's so sophisticated.
Shut up. I like coffee.
No one likes coffee.
Air Force trains, even the
models have these hooks.
Oh, they do.
For when the trains are
loaded on the transport ships.
Every car on that crash had...
Joe, you stop talking about it alright?
Wait guys.
Am I the only guy who doesn't
understand any of this means?
Probably 'Smartin'.
- Cary shut up.
I don't like it when you call me that.
I'm sorry 'Smartin'.
Lets just go cry about it.
Dr Woodward had that map.
He drove onto the train tracks.
Maybe there was something
he wanted to destroy.
You guys should shut up!
Maybe he was sick of living
and wanted to kill himself.
Dumb idea.
He had a gun. Why not use that?
There are infinitely more
effective ways to commit suicide.
Pills, hanging,...
- Hey, P*ssy!
I order these for a reason.
- Excuse me.
Can we have another order of fries
because my friend here is fat?
Funny chomper, at least I don't
have to use a booster seat.
You can jump from a building.
- Or fall down some stairs.
Oh, that's not really effective.
- Do you think?
If this is the Air Force, what would
the Air Force have on the train?
Jesus, shut up about it!
You heard what old man Woodward said.
We can't talk about this.
Joe, seriously.
Do you really want to take a chance that
something could happen to your dad too?
It's loaded, move out!
- Yes, sir.
Yes, Deputy, I'm told this crash has
caused the whole massive confusion.
Well, as you can expect, the local
authorities are trying to figure out
just what has happened
as well as how to help.
It's all under control.
It'll be a very fast clean up.
Colonel, is there anything
I should know of, Sir?
Not that I can think of, Deputy.
I understand you've
concerns about our cargo.
I like to see that manifest, yes.
Well, that's not going to be possible.
Colonel, I've a lot of people in my town
who're going to want to
know what's taking place.
Which town is that?
Lillian...
Deputy, if you're asking me if there's
any dangerous property onboard this train,
I can assure you that the answer is 'no'.
- Colonel!
Colonel!
Excuse me.
They gave me the round
around for two hours
before they allow me to talk to anyone.
I'll say they had
their hands full, Jack.
Nelec, the Colonel
refused to show the manifest,
He told me they are carrying mostly
aeroplane parts. I don't buy that.
It's Air Force, Jack. The
aeroplane parts ought to make sense.
Sheriff, I'm telling you
there's something else going on.
They taking moulds of tire tracks.
Who would they be looking for?
And they are packaging these weird
little cubes into these crates.
Weird little cubes, huh?
- They load them on these
red trucks, there are dozens of them!
Sheriff, I think you
need to check it out.
And I think you need to take a break.
Jack, I've been telling
you this since Elizabeth.
You are a good Deputy.
But you need to take a vacation.
Go home.
Take off your uniform. Go fishing.
Give your son a hug.
Hey Breen, I'm not sure Edie's
paying you to listen to the radio!
Breen!
Hey, Sheriff.
What's that?
Walkman.
It's like a stereo.
Plays on cassette tapes.
You want to try it?
I don't think so.
Kids walk around with their
own stereos, just what we need.
It's slippery slope, my friend.
Yes sir.
Sheriff?
Sheriff?
You know what, in scene...
Where did you learn to do this?
Mostly the Dick Smith's
"Monsters Make-up" paint book.
Hey Joe, we need more
footage of the train crash.
Obviously.
You know that train
model you've just made?
Yap, your cargo train.
I want to blow it up and film it.
Let me blow it up.
Ya, sure.
- Fantastic!
It's fine. They can blow it up.
I don't care.
Do you want to see it?
The train, my train model?
The train I made.
Wow!
Dude, that's bitching man...
That's like the third
time it has happened.
So how am I suppose to be a zombie?
Pretty much be a lifeless ghoul,
no soul, dead eyes... scary.
Did you ever have Miss Mullen?
- For English?
Yes!
I like her, but 'hungry
for human flesh',
like she wants to turn
somebody into a zombie.
Cause that's how zombies do.
My God, that's really good.
Not bad.
Really?
Really.
Careful, there was a gas spill.
I don't even know how
much fuel I've lost.
You don't seem to be asking very many questions!
- Give the man sometime, Mr. Blakely.
He's only a Deputy,
he's not the Sheriff.
I think this is most
likely a bear attack.
Security cameras showed nothing.
Vicky, you heard from
Sheriff Pruitt this morning?
Negative, still no word.
Vicky, you need to update and
send a CS unit out to Edie's,
And you put an APB out on
