The Fog Page #4

Andy?

Please pick up. Please pick up.

Please pick up.

- Inez?

- What is Borneo?

Hello?

Hello? Hello?

And all of us living here today

owe a debt of gratitude...

...to these four brave men...

...who struggled

and withstood and sacrificed...

...in order that this island might grow

and prosper into what it is today.

Oh, God, Andy.

Maybe we should close

all the windows.

You better check your bedroom.

I'll go check your mother's.

It wants us.

This is really weird.

I'll go get the truck.

I think it's just a power outage.

I'm sure it's temporary.

I think it's best that everybody

just go home.

I don't think it's anything

to worry about.

All right. You heard the mayor.

Let's call it a night.

This is an emergency.

There's been a fire

at the weather station.

Dan has been killed. If anybody can

hear me, please check on my son.

The phone lines are down.

Please check on my son.

There is something in the fog.

Please. I cannot reach him.

He's at 887 White Beach Road.

Mommy's coming, Andy.

Mommy's coming.

Elizabeth, get in.

Stevie's son's in trouble. We gotta go.

I heard her on the radio. Come on.

"April 10th. Met with Blake tonight

for the first time.

He stood in the shadows to

prevent me from seeing his face. "

- Who's Blake?

- I don't know.

Nick, listen to this.

"Blake's proposition is simple.

He wishes to purchase half of the

island as a new home for his people.

He and his followers are

traveling down the coast...

...in a clipper ship called

the Elizabeth Dane. "

Spooner said he saw a clipper ship

last night in the fog.

Nick, watch out!

God.

Come on.

Damn it.

Come on.

Come on.

Oh, come on.

We're not gonna make it.

It's coming up the coast.

We're going the back way.

Elizabeth, turn the truck around.

Keep it running.

Come on.

Andy, get out of there.

Get out of there. Come on.

Grab my hand. Come on, run.

Let's go get in the truck.

Go on, get in the truck.

We gotta get out of here.

Go, go, go.

Let's go. Elizabeth, let's go.

Come on. Put it in gear,

we gotta get out of here.

- Sh*t.

- Go. Come on!

It's stuck.

- Go.

- What the hell is that?

Come on, I don't know.

You trade with me.

Slide over.

Nick. Nick, look out!

Where are we going?

To the lighthouse, to your mom.

Then we're getting off this island.

We have to go to the town hall

to get my mother. She was just there.

Try the Marina Loop.

Maybe we'll make it through.

I ain't sticking around here,

waiting to get killed.

I'm the hell off this island.

All packed up, huh?

I don't think the ferry's

running tonight.

You been drinking?

It means, "You've been weighed

in the balance and found wanting. "

I'll take that as a yes.

I need a drink myself.

I figure one of these keys

goes to one of these boats.

We could...

Oh, my God.

Come on. Come on.

It's too thick.

I can't see through this.

Our journey's over.

We are almost home.

The contract, Mr. Malone.

A new home.

Where's the rest?

We've come for all of it, Mr. Blake.

You give us everything, and you

escape here with your wretched lives.

That's not the deal we made,

Mr. Malone.

Well, that matters little now,

Mr. Blake.

Elizabeth?

Nick?

Elizabeth?

- Elizabeth?

- Nick?

Where are you?

Stay there. I can see you.

Elizabeth.

I'm sorry. I don't know what it is.

- Elizabeth.

- Nick.

Oh, man. You all right?

You okay?

- Hey, come on. We gotta go.

- I can't leave without my dogs, Nick.

They'll be fine.

We'll come back tomorrow.

Look at me, Nick.

Those dogs are all I got.

Billy.

There's people over there.

Brutus.

We gotta go. Come on.

What was that?

Andy.

Thank God you're okay.

I tried to reach you,

but I crashed my car.

Thank God.

We gotta go.

Come on, let's go.

- Come on.

- Come on.

Inside. Hurry up.

You miserable bastards.

Help us! Please!

Blood for blood.

Elizabeth?

Elizabeth.

Come on.

You make a decision.

Elizabeth, are you okay?

Hello, is anybody in there?

- Spooner?

- Yeah, come on. Open the door, man.

- Come on.

- It's crazy out there, man.

- Hell is going on?

- We gotta lock this place down.

Windows, doors, everything.

Spooner, help me out. Come on.

So now you know.

That our forefathers murdered

every man, woman and child...

...on the Elizabeth Dane?

And this town was built

on nothing but lies?

And now they've come

for their revenge.

They're everywhere.

The land that Blake paid for...

...where is it?

We're on it.

The whole town was built on it.

The sins of the fathers are visited

on the heads of the children.

- The hell are you talking about?

- The ramblings of a dying old man.

My grandfather knew the truth

about his ancestors.

My father was a madman.

We're the children of murderers.

All of us.

Wayne, Castle, Williams, Malone.

But we haven't done anything.

Yeah, keep my father out of this.

We from Chicago.

It's time to put an end to this,

once and for all.

No!

No. Come on.

No!

No!

Malone.

Elizabeth.

Elizabeth. Elizabeth, wait.

Please. I've done nothing

to deserve this.

That matters little now.

Please.

The contract.

Let's go.

Elizabeth?

No. Elizabeth.

Elizabeth?

I don't think any of us can say

exactly what happened last night.

But if this...

...has been anything more

than just a nightmare...

...then why?

Did it come back for revenge...

...or justice?

Or maybe to claim something

lost long, long ago.

Maybe we'll never know.

But one thing's for sure...

...something did come back

from the sea.

Sooner or later, everything does.
