Synopsis: Emma and her sister Stacey are normal teenagers in a small town, when a mysterious infection begins to spread. With the town quarantined, and their parents stuck on the other side of the barrier, the girls have a blast eating junk food and sneaking out to go to parties. But when the disease starts to infect people they know, the girls, together with their neighbor Evan (Emma's secret crush), barricade themselves into their home. But it may already be too late, as the infection is already in their midst, and Emma will be faced with a choice: protect her sister or survive the virus.

"Don't worry, trust the CDC."

But, I mean,

patients are going missing.

This is crazy! I...

Infected people, under hospital

care, were are just gone...

This is delicious.

Good.

Try not to eat it all, okay?

It's all we've got.

This is very, very alarming...

Is that my phone?

You left it upstairs.

Why do you look so nice?

There's a party

-in Phase Two tonight.

-You do look nice.

-Thank you.

-We can't leave the house.

We're alone, Emma,

we can do whatever we want.

It's not cool, Stacey.

There's still a curfew.

What's not cool

is doing your homework

in dirty sweats when there's

no school tomorrow.

This is true.

-Cheers.

-Cheers.

Well, have fun.

Thanks. You, too.

I will.

What?

My God, what a b*tch.

Balls.

I'll see you around.

Hey!

Hi.

Are you wearing makeup?

Yeah, like,

a little bit, it's...

It was Stacey's, I...

Do I look like a hooker?

Yeah, but, like,

a really high-class hooker.

Okay.

Want to dance?

Cool.

You're a bad dancer!

Wha-what's in it?

Tequila.

And what else?

More tequila.

-Hey.

-Okay.

Where's CJ?

I don't know.

A**hole.

See ya!

I'm glad

one of us came prepared.

Shall we?

After you.

-I'm sorry, sorry!

-My God!

What a slut.

...different room?

-Anyone in here?

-Put your penis away.

-Okay.

-Okay.

Too bright.

Not pretty.

Better?

Yeah.

Cool.

Okeydokey.

What are we doing?

We're having a moment.

Why are you whispering?

I don't know. Why are you?

I like you.

What the hell is that?

-Stacey, wait!

-That ho bag!

-I thought that was you...

-Stay the hell away from me

or I take that sweatshirt

and shove it so far up your ass.

-Stacey, Stacey.

-You don't even...

What the hell was that?

-Hey, hey!

-What was what?

-What happened to your bra?

-They're not worth it.

-They're not worth it.

-Delicious...

-Get off of me!

-All right.

-Piece of sh*t.

-Baby... B-Baby!

Stacey, wait, Stacey.

-I need a drink.

-Stacey, this is so lame.

I really don't think

you should care.

Emma?

Emma?

My God!

Hey!

Yo, I'm talking to you!

Dude, hello.

Let her go!

I'm talking to you!

Answer me!

I know's a piece of sh*t,

but for two seconds,

I thought she was

actually my...

's infected!

Stacey!

Not in here. Come on.

-Get out of here! Come on!

-What's going on?

Stacey, what's wrong with him?

Okay.

My God.

Sh*t.

Is gone?

Stacey!

Stacey?

Did it get in your eyes?

Are you okay?

Okay.

Come on.

Hey, Stace, you okay?

Yeah.

I'll be out in a minute.

Why isn't

anyone talking about the fact

that all these infected attacks

started happening at the exact

same time, all over the world?

It's like the infected

are communicating

on some secret network

that only they can hear.

Now there are reports

of these gatherings of infected,

and these nests

across the country.

What I'd like to know is

what the hell are they up to

and why isn't the government

doing anything...

You had any contact

with an infected person?

No.

Banished are

the sounds of children playing,

as the uninfected cower

in their homes.

Civilian military

stretched too thin.

A crude symbol,

increasingly prevalent,

indicates which homes

have been cleared

and those which still

need to be inspected.

Streets so quiet...

I keep getting his voicemail.

Mom's, too.

...the uninfected

cowering at home.

An innocuous letter... an

uppercase "I"... holds the key

-to the fate

-Hey, are you okay?

Of the families within.

The number on the left

indicates the number

of infected.

The number on the right

indicates the members

of the household

who have been removed.

It's him.

Hey, Dad.

Girls, listen to me

very carefully.

Lock every window

and every door in that house.

Nobody in, nobody out.

Do you understand?

Stacey?

I'm here.

Do you remember where my gun is?

-Yeah.

-I want you to find it

and keep it on you at all times.

Do you understand?

Do you un...

Dad?

There's no reception.

Try him again.

Dad, are you there?

24 hours ago,

military personnel

-Well, try again.

-evacuated the uninfected,

-Dad, hello?

-and just moments ago,

-Are you there?

-Iaunched an air raid,

-Dad?

-obliterating...

-What's going on?

-I don't know.

The land line's out, too.

Power still works.

There's no Wi-Fi.

This is not a test.

This emergency alert

has been issued by

the Center for Disease Control,

in conjunction with the

Department of Public Health.

The president

of the United States

has declared martial law.

All law enforcement

and emergency personnel

will be federalized,

effective immediately...

I know it's somewhere in here.

Can you please help me look?

What? It's a ring.

It's Mom's wedding ring...

that she never takes off.

She probably showered

and forgot to put it back on.

Will you please tell me

what's going on?

-Nothing is going on.

-Stacey, Mom and Dad...

There's nothing to talk about,

so let's drop it.

Fine.

Where did you learn

how to do that?

Dad used to take me

to the range.

Come on, come on.

Hey! Over here!

Sir, stay where you are.

What was that?

I don't know.

Stay back.

Stay right there.

-Get back.

-It's Mrs. Toomey.

Get down on the ground.

Get down on the ground now!

Get down!

Hold it!

Hold it! Hold it!

Turn around! Turn around!

-That's not a question!

-Don't move!

That's not a question!

We have to get out of here.

Evan!

This is a restricted

quarantine zone.

Turn your vehicle

around immediately.

Stacey, we gotta turn around.

-Stay here.

-Turn around.

-Stacey, what are you doing?

-Ma'am...

-Get back in the car! Stacey!

-Get back in your vehicle, now.

-Sir, we're just trying to see our dad.

-Stop, now!

-Go right there...

-Ma'am, get back in your vehicle!

-Please, sir. We're not infected.

-What part of "get back in your vehicle"

-Please.

-do you not understand?

-Sir, it's just right there.

-Get back in your vehicle now!

-Ma'am! Ma'am, right now!

-Please, we're just

-trying to get right there.

-Right now!

-Stacey!

-Get back in your vehicle now...

Sh*t.

My God.

Sh*t.

...you are required

to stay in your home.

By executive order,

it is now a felony

to harbor an infected

individual.

Please report any suspected

infection immediately.

You are required

to stay in your home.

By executive order,

it is now a felony

to harbor an infected

individual.

Please report any suspected

infection immediately.

You are required

to stay in your homes.

By executive order,

it is now a felony to harbor...

I need to tell you something.

Okay.

What?

Dad cheated on Mom.

What?

Last semester,

when I went to visit him

at work,

I walked in on him

with one of his grad students.

And I freaked out.

So I told Mom

and Mom freaked out.

Well, why didn't

anyone tell me?

They didn't think

that you could handle it.

And they begged me

not to say anything.

That's why we moved out here;

to start over.

Looks like that

didn't go so well.

You should've told me sooner.

I'm sorry.

I didn't know what to do.

And that's why
