Yeah, I... I just talked

to Black River.

- They said they're gonna...

- Where's the stranger?

Uh, let me call you

right back.

Um, he can't have

any visitors right now.

Listen, I understand

what you're going through...

But it's probably best

if you just go home, okay?

You have to let him go,

please.

Sorry, I can't do that.

Please! He's the only one

who can help my mom.

You have to let him go.

Now!

Sorry about your mom, kid.

There's nothing you can

do to help her now.

He can!

Let him go, please.

Hey! Get back here!

Take it easy, man.

Calm down!

I promise you

we're doing everything...

Alright, man.

Come on, come on, come on...

- Let him go. Right now!

- Calm down, please.

Calm down, calm down.

Think about what you're doing,

this is stupid.

- Let him go!

- Come on, man.

Go!

Open it.

Dumb move, kid.

You just got yourself into

a whole lot of trouble...

open up.

You have to save my mother.

Please, you have to save her.

Is she still alive?

Sorry kid, I can't heal the...

Where's the infected one?

I need to find him.

Where is he?

Where is he?

De Luca, open the

door right now!

That's an order!

Just a minute, sir.

I'll be right out.

Go around back.

I'll distract them out front.

okay, De Luca,

you stop playing around

and open this damn

door right now!

Get out of here.

Go out the back.

Lieutenant, this is your

final warning.

Please, go, now!

Get the f*** out of here!

What the f*** are you doing?

You crazy?

They're coming in.

- Yes?

- Get out.

okay. okay.

Stay in the car.

There's a cruiser approaching

at high speed on Baywood.

I can't see the plates, but I

think they're the suspects.

Copy that.

Just make them stop.

Black River's sending backup.

They should be there

any minute.

COPY '

Get out of the vehicle, please.

Get out of the vehicle, now!

Please, sir.

Get out of the vehicle!

We gotta gotta to!

They're trying to leave...

I'll call an ambulance.

Why didn't you save him?

He was infected.

Head south.

I'll buy you some time.

I'm not going anywhere.

Please.

Do it for me.

If not me,

then for your mother.

I know all this

has been my fault...

but please try not

to hurt anyone else.

Can you promise me that?

Ana...

She was like you.

Yeah.

But she was stronger.

She gave her life for her son.

How many more are out there?

I was the last one...

Until yesterday.

Why did you want to find her?

Would you have killed

your son too?

Why did you have that same...

Die!

Look me in the eye.

No.

No, don't touch me.

Your hand are cut,

you'll get infected.

- Get out of here.

- It doesn't matter.

I'm not leaving you here.

If you touch me,

I'll have to kill you.

- Get away from me.

- What?

You're gonna let Caleb get away?

Just like that?

- Go.

- No.

I told you to leave me alone,

you deaf peace of sh*t!

Get the hell away from me!

I swear, I'll rip your throat...

just like your f***ing mother!

Go!

Go!

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Covering my wounds.

I told you to get

the f*** out of here.

Shut up.

We need to stop Caleb.

Go away.

- Get out!

- Shut up and push!

Come on.

I'm sorry, kid.

F***!

We're expanding our search radius,

waiting for backup from

the surrounding areas.

Be aware that the suspects

are armed and dangerous.

Suspect's patrol car

spotted..

7 officers are down.

We're authorized

to shoot to kill.

Are you alone?

Don't worry.

I... I just want to rest.

HEY! Stop!

Stop!

Are you okay?

- Who did this to you?

- Untie me.

Untie me, please.

Please.

JESUS.

okay, wait here.

I... I'm gonna

call an ambulance.

Oh, my God!

Come with me.

I'll take you to a doctor.

Please don't.

Are you okay?

F***!

No.

[Elm

You piece of sh*t!

Now you're gonna burn.

[Elm

Thank you.

What the f***?

What are you doing?

So now you know what we are.

We're humanity's

death sentence.

There has to be a cure.

Yeah.

There you have it.

I hope you've inherited

your mother's strength.

Otherwise hell will be

waiting for you out there.

Thank you.

Please leave the curtain

open before you leave.
