and you're not my friend.

- Now get out of my way.

- You want me to apologize?

Fine, I'll apologize, OK?

You know what's gonna happen if

they find out what's going on in here?

They're gonna put her in a lab and

they're gonna cut her up into pieces,

- and we're never gonna see her again.

- You don't know that.

It's what I would do.

Sorry. No, no. Get out of my way.

- Jesus.

- What the hell! Are you kiddin' me?

It's fine, it's a blackout. It's fine.

It's fine! It's all fine, Frank!

Hey... does this happen often?

You know how many emergency systems

are in this place?

The phones don't go dead.

It doesn't happen.

- There's no way.

- Come on, let's go.

Everything's fried.

Don't bother with that.

- It's stuck.

- Let me try, let me try. Let me try!

It's stuck.

Here, help me with the elevator.

Damn it!

There's gotta be another way out.

Right?

- Where are you going?

- To find Niko.

You're not wrong, you know.

You're thinking, "I don't belong here.

I never belonged here."

It's OK to think that. You're right.

You're not one of us. You never were.

Some people are destined

for great things,

and other people just hold the camera.

All right, the system's

on lock-down mode.

- Meaning what?

- It's automated.

If it thinks there's any danger

of a contaminant escaping,

- the whole place just shuts down.

- What about the elevator?

We tried it. Gonna have

to figure something else out.

What did you do?

Zoe, what did you do?

What are you talking about? I've been

in here with you the entire time.

No, you were also

the last person who saw Niko!

No! No, all this weird sh*t started

happening as soon as she came back!

You guys said it yourselves,

the serum did something to her brain!

This is not the time to talk.

No, this is the exact time

to talk about it!

I wanna know what happened to Niko.

Jesus, can we all just relax

and find a way out of here, please?

I wanna know what happened to Niko, now!

Clay.

- Clay.

- Clay. Clay?

- Jesus, is he choking?

- Clay?

- Frank! Frank! Frank, he's choking!

- There's an obstruction!

Give me the forceps!

I need the forceps, right under there!

Hurry up! I need a light! Clay! Clay!

Stay with me, Clay. Clay!

Give me the forceps! Let me see!

I need a light! Clay!

- Now! Bring it here now!

- OK!

- Clay...

- Help me hold him still.

Clay! Clay! Clay! Clay! Jesus!

Clay, stay with me!

Stay with me! Help me hold him still.

- Clay! Do you need the light?

- Jesus, what the hell is it?

Shine the light in there!

Get the light in there!

- Clay!

- Oh, Jesus.

- Oh, sh*t. Oh, sh*t.

- Frank!

Oh, my...

- Come here.

- Oh, my God! Where is she?

- Jesus!

- Frank! She's gone! Frank, she's gone!

Where'd she go? Zoe? Zoe?

Here, stay close.

Stay close. Stay close.

- Zoe?

- Zoe!

Stay close.

Zoe, stop!

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. Eva.

- Eva, wake up. Eva, you OK? Come here.

- Oh...

Come here. Get up. Gotta get up. Get up.

Frank...

We need a weapon

or something we can use.

Hold this.

Frank?

Frank... she killed him. She killed him!

I know. I know. Listen to me.

Frank? Frank, what is that?

Oh, my God! Frank!

Frank, they're coming! They're coming!

They're alive!

Listen to me! Listen to me!

They're not alive, OK? Come here.

This is called Embutramide.

We use it to put down lab animals.

You need a full dose.

Listen to me. I need you to hide

until I'm done with it.

- I am not leaving you. I am... No!

- Shh.

Hey, this is my fault. I'm gonna fix it.

But if I can't,

I need you to promise me...

you do not let her leave

this laboratory, no matter what.

We cannot let her hurt anybody else,

you understand me?

- Do you understand me?

- I promise, I promise, I promise.

OK. I'm sorry.

Please... Frank, please

don't leave me alone!

Frank, please don't leave me alone!

Frank, please!

Zoe?

It's Frank. I'm not gonna hurt you.

I just wanna talk.

It's OK.

I just wanna talk to you, that's all.

Then why do you have that syringe?

OK. All right.

Look, I know you're probably

really scared... and confused.

This is not your fault, OK?

I did this. This is my fault.

I'm so sorry, sweetie, OK?

We're gonna fix this.

We can fix this together, OK?

We can do anything, you hear me?

It's you and me. I'm right here.

I'm not gonna hurt you. OK?

Look at me.

I'm with you.

Do you still love me?

Yes, of course I do.

Then show me.

This is not the Zoe I know.

- Zoe?

- You've gotta stop her.

You get that needle and put her down.

That's what I thought.

Zoe!

Eva!

Eva...

Zoe?

Eva!

Eva.

Zoe?

Zoe, I know you're here!

Zoe?

- Zoe, please!

- Hail Mary, full of grace.

Our Lord is with thee.

Pray for us sinners,

now and at the hour of our death.

Zoe?

It's her dream.

Zoe! Zoe!

Zoe, it's OK, it's me.

You did this.

You started the fire.

Hey, listen to me.

This is not your fault.

This wasn't your fault.

You can stop this, OK?

You can open the door.

Zoe, open the door!

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

- Hey, are you OK?

- She killed them!
