I guess couple of rounds

went through here.

But just pieces.

You'll be okay.

Let me see.

Okay.

- Hold that. Press it tight.

- Yeah, okay.

Give me your radio.

My best chance out of here...

is a helicopter.

You don't have one of those.. do you?

No.

Give me your radio.

Go get him.

I won't bring him back.

You have to know that.

I do.

Go get him.

- Do you know where we are?

- No.

The Gannet Peak.

Highest mountain in Wyoming.

On the hottest day in August,

still there's a feet of snow.

Today, too cold to snow.

Look man, Let's just talk for a bit,

alright?

- Let's just talk, please.

- Sure.

What the f***?

Where are my boots?

world here, can't say the same for you.

So you're gonna talk?

Or you keep whining?

Look I've had made mistakes ok?

So what did you do?

Hey look,

I am not the law here

I'm just the guy

sitting in front of you.

So you can tell me the truth.

You tell me the truth

I give you a chance.

Alright just listen to me!

You know what it's like

out here in this frozen hell?

Ain't there nothing to do..

No nothing.

Aint no women, no fun.

This is f***ing snow and

the f***ing silence, that's all!

My family's people were forced here.

Stuck here for a century.

That's snow and silence...

that hasn't been taken from them.

So what did you take?

I don't know what you mean.

You take something too?

No.

Hey, I need you to be

honest with me, right?

You're free to go.

- Where.. where I gonna go?

- I'm a man of my word.

You have told the truth.

Let me give you a chance.

Let me give you the same chance

that she got.

What chance did she get?

If you can make it to that highway,

you're free man.

Where is the highway?

You know how far that drill camp was

from where I found Natalie's body?

6 miles, bare foot.

That's a warrior.

That's a warrior.

You.. you may make 600 feet.

But you better get going.

I don't understand.

What do you want me to do?!

I want you to run.

How you feeling?

I feel okay.

Got you something.

Thought maybe it give you a little

taste of home.

- Crocodile.

- Please don't make me laugh.

It's an alligator.

I hope it protects you

better than bullet-proof vests right?

I should not joke about that,

it saved your life.

You saved my life.

No.

Jane, you're a tough woman.

You saved your own life.

We both should be honest.

I got lucky.

Ah. well, luck don't live out here.

Luck lives in the city.

Don't live out here.

It lives where you get hit by a bus or not.

Where your bank is robbed or not.

At someone's damn cell phone

when he come up to a crosswalk.

That's luck, that's winning or losing.

Out here you survive or you surrender.

That's determined by your strength

and bare spirit.

Wolves don't kill the unlucky deer.

They kill the weak ones.

You fought for your life Jane.

And now you get to walk away with it.

You'll get to go home.

I know what you're doing.

Will read to you from a magazine.

"10 Signs that He's Into You."

"He looks you in the eye when he speaks."

Is it supposed to be?

She ran 6 miles in the snow.

Yes, she did.

Hello?

Martin?

Martin!

Hey..

Martin?

Annie?

Hey.

What's with the paint?

It's my death face.

Is that right?

How would you know what that it is?

I don't.

Just made it up.

Guess no one left to teach her.

That's right as..

Then the phone rang...

... which is never good.

But today it was.

First time Chip's called me in over a year.

Where is he?

Police station.

Just gonna go pick him up...

... as soon as I wipe this sh*t of my face.

I heard about what happened.

I heard there's one still missing.

No.

No one's missing.

How did he go out?

With a whimper.

You better go easy on Chip.

I should go get him.

I just need to sit here...

... You gonna sit for a minute?

You got time to sit with me?

Well, I ain't going nowhere.
