[silence]
[music playing]
[ventilated breathing]
[woman, muffled] Can you hear me?
Dad, can you hear me?
-[breathing painfully]
-You don’t need to fight it.
You could just let it all go.
Okay? [soft sobbing]
Everything’s okay.
[soft sobbing]
I love you, Dad.
I do.
I’m so sorry.
Oh, God...
[latch clicking]
[man] Come on, son.
Okay, uh...
can lay you back for me, Bud?
I’m gonna...
I’m just gonna lay you back, okay?
Okay.
[woman sighs]
[wheelbarrow thumping]
[man grunting]
You wanna say anything?
[son] Bye, Grandpa.
I love you.
[man] I’m sorry, Bud.
[Bud moaning]
[muffled gunshot]
[silence]
[son breathing through mask]
[man sighs]
[gas can thuds]
[match scrapes]
[forks scraping]
You done?
[man, muffled] He has to be involved...
in everything from now on.
Everything.
If he’s not, then we’re doing him a disservice.
[woman] I don’t care, Paul.
He’s 17.
He shouldn’t have been there.
He shouldn’t have seen that.
-I couldn’t have done it all on my own, Sarah.
-I should have been there.
I should have been there instead.
-Nobody’s gonna blame you for that.
He’s gonna be fine.
Everything’s gonna be okay.
-You don’t honestly believe that...
do you?
-Sarah, I-I’m just trying--
I’m trying to do everything I can to protect you guys.
It’s been a really long day.
Can we get some rest?
[music playing]
[Sarah speaking indistinctly]
[man speaking indistinctly]
-[wheezing]
-Hey, Stanley.
Don’t worry.
I’m gonna take care of you.
[kiss]
[sighs]
[music continues]
[door opens]
-[labored breathing]
[wailing]
-[Sarah] Travis, wake up. -What’s going on?
-There’s somebody in the house. -What?
-There’s somebody in the house.
[Stanley growling]
[man] Stop. Stop.
[Stanley barks]
-Dad.
[man] Take Stanley.
Let’s go.
[ventilated breathing]
[thumping, scraping]
Wait. Stay back.
[thumping continues]
[doorknob clicking]
-[barks] -Shh!
[doorknob clattering]
[sharp pound on door]
-Wait! -[rifle shot]
[Sarah] Paul, wait!
-[stranger] Hey! Hey! -[Paul] Stop! Hey!
-Hey, hey, hey, hey! -Put the gun down now!
Put the gun down, or I shoot you!
-I’ll drop you right now! -Okay, okay.
-Drop it! -It was an accident.
No one needs to get hurt.
[rifle slides away]
[objects clatter]
-All right, hands in the air!
[insects chirping outside]
[Paul breathing rapidly]
Now...
lie down.
Down!
All right.
Roll over. Roll over!
Are you sick?
-No, sir.
-Open your eyes.
-Is anybody else with you? -No.
-If I go outside, there’s nobody out there waiting for me?
-No, sir.
-All right, close your eyes. -Please!
Wait! Wait!
[stuttering music playing]
[Sarah breathing rapidly]
Sarah.
Come now, quick.
[Sarah] Come on. Travis.
-[Paul] Come in. -[Sarah] Quick.
-Take this. It’s loaded. -What’s going on?
-Th-There’s a guy in there. I need you to watch him.
Come on.
[Sarah] Stay close.
[Stanley barking]
[Paul] Quiet! I want you to keep him quiet!
[Travis] Quiet.
Did you kill him?
-He’s just unconscious.
Are you two okay?
Travis, I’m gonna need you
to get some rope and some duct tape.
-[Stanley barking] -Come on, Stanley. Come on!
-[Sarah] Are you okay? -I’m fine. I’m fine.
[latch clicks]
If he comes to...
just call out.
-Okay.
-I’ll be right back.
[insects chirping]
[ventilated breathing]
[pounding on door]
-[Stanley barking] -[Paul] It’s me.
[Sarah] Paul?
-It’s me! Open up.
-I think it’s just him.
[wheelbarrow thumping]
Push him against the tree.
You know what a foot and a half is?
-Sorry. -It’s about that long.
-Sorry. -That’s all right.
Do it again. It’s okay.
Yeah.
Now put it around his face.
-He still has to be able to breathe, Dad.
-Straight around it.
He can breathe out his nose.
[hammering]
Okay, put it up.
-[muffled moaning]
[man moaning in distance]
[Paul sighs]
[man moaning in distance]
[moaning continues]
-[gasps]
[insects chirping]
[bird squawking]
-Hey!
Get up!
Get on your feet now.
-[grunting]
-See this?
I don’t wanna have to use this, but I will if I have to.
I just wanna talk.
And I want honest answers.
You give me honest answers, this is yours.
Understand?
-[coughing]
-Why’d you break into my house?
-I...
I promise...
I promise you, I-I--
I didn’t think anyone was in it.
There’s no lights. There’s things boarded up.
It looked abandoned from the outside.
-What were you looking for? -Water...
supplies, anything.
My family...
I have a family,
my wife and our boy in the woods.
-Where?
-An abandoned house, about 50 miles from here.
-Why did you leave them? -We’re running out of water,
and I left them with the rest of the food and water,
I thought it’d be safer that way.
-Are they sick? -No.
-Is that why you left them? -No. No, sir, they are not sick.
-Hey, listen. I don’t even have to shoot you, you know?
I could just leave you out here.
-You want this water? -Yeah.
-You make me believe you.
-Look, I’m telling you the truth.
I don’t know how much time they have.
-All right, so how long
have you been living in this abandoned house?
-About a week, tops. -How did you get there?
-My truck broke down. That’s the first place that we found.
-Where were you before? -My brother’s.
-Where?
-About 80 or so miles from here.
-Why’d you leave?
-Lost our water supply.
-So, your brother’s out there, too?
-No.
-Where did he go? -He’s dead.
-So, it’s just your wife and your son? And nobody else?
-Just them.
-And do you have any idea what’s going on out there?
-No.
As soon as people in the city started getting sick,
got out, got as far away as possible.
If there’s a grid left,
I don’t even know how to be on it.
-So you’re out there driving for, what, 80 miles,
and you didn’t see anything?
-No. We didn’t see anything or anyone.
We drove at night.
Our truck broke down, I’d been running it without oil.
When I was by myself, I just stuck to the woods
and I saw nothing.
Look. Look at my eyes.
I’m telling you the truth.
I never would have broken in like that
if I thought that the house was occupied,
but I was desperate.
I got no hard feelings at you.
You did what you had to do. You had to protect your family.
But if you can spare some water for my family,
I can trade for it.
Got food.
-How much?
-Got plenty to trade for.
-I’m asking how much.
-Two goats, six chickens, some canned food as well.
-Are the animals healthy?
-Yes, sir.
I promise you, if you need food, I have it.
My family is all that matters to me.
I know you can understand that.
You’re a good person.
You’re just trying to protect your family.
But don’t let mine die ’cause of it.
Help me, and I can help you.
-Okay.
-Thank you. -Come on.
[music playing]
[Sarah] Did he mention the smoke?
[Paul] Huh? What?
-The smoke from Dad.
-I don’t--
Uh, no. Why?
-That’s probably how he found us.
I think, if he does have a family out there,
that we should consider bringing them back here.
-That’s a big jump.
Everything he said could be a lie.
-I know that.
-I know that you want to believe him.
-Is that wrong?
-But we just gotta be smart about it.
We can’t be emotional.
-I’m not being emotional.
He knows where we live now.
We can’t just let him go.
The more people we have here, the better we can defend it.
He found us. Other people will, too.
They could bring the animals here.
We wouldn’t have to just trade for them.
It’s the smartest option.
-I’m not bringing anyone back here until I know they’re not sick.
It took Bud less than a day to show signs.
I’ll wait there three to be certain.
-You be strong. -Yeah.
-Don’t go outside unless you absolutely have to.
And if I, you know, don’t come back...
don’t come looking for me.
I’m gonna try and help you and your family.
-Thank you.
-But if you’re lying to me...
I will kill you.
-Understand? -Yes, sir.
-Come on.
[music playing]
-Have you ride in the back. -Okay.
-When we’re out on the road...
keep your eyes open for anything.
-All right.
-Are we good?
-We’re good.
We’re good.
-You give me directions. -Yep.
[window slides open]
[music continues]
-Keep going straight!
Stay on this!
[gunshot]
-[gasping]
[truck bed thumping]
Oh, fuck. Fuck.
[man groans]
[Paul] Fuck.
-[groans] -Fuck.
[grunting, blows thumping]
Get your head down!
[man yelps]
-Get back!
Get back! Get up!
[man coughing]
-Wait!
-You didn’t have to shoot him right away!
-Wh-What are you talking about? They came after us!
-Fuck!
-You know this guy?
-Huh? -Huh? Do you know him?
You said you traveled 80 miles, you didn’t see a fucking thing,
and we barely get 10, and this fucking happens!
-I never seen this guy before in my life!
I nearly killed him myself!
-Why’d you tell me not to shoot him?
-Because we could have got information from him!
They could’ve been part of a bigger group nearby!
Christ!
I ain’t lying to you!
[sighs]
-Fuck!
Ah, fuck.
-What’s your name? -Huh?
-Your name, what’s your name?
-Will.
-All right, Will.
Here’s a mask and gloves in the bag.
You better put ’em on.
And wash your fucking hands, too.
-Ah, fuck.
Fuck.
-Anything? -No, nothing.
I gotta check the other guy.
Okay, we gotta be quick.
-Spare in the trunk? -Yeah.
[music playing]
[jack cranking]
[birds chirping]
[Stanley panting]
-How you doin’?
Hey, Stanley?
How you doin’, buddy?
[approaching vehicle]
-Mom! -What?
Mom, i-it’s Dad!
It’s Dad! He’s back. He’s okay!
-Hey, hey. Just wait.
J-Just slow down.
[Paul] Hey.
Come on. It’s okay.
Hey. [kiss]
-Hey, Dad. -[Sarah] Are you okay?
-Yeah. We had a little trouble.
I’ll talk to you about it later.
Sarah, Travis...
this is Will...
his wife Kim, and their son Andrew.
-Hello. -Hi.
-This is my wife Sarah... -[Sarah] Hi.
-and my son Travis.
-Hi.
-How you doin’? -All right.
[Sarah] You doin’ okay?
-[Kim] Yeah. -[Will] Good as can be.
[goat bleats]
[Paul] All right, well...
let’s get everything unloaded and show you the house,
maybe have a wash-up. -Yeah.
-Hey, kiddo. How’s he doing?
-All right? -Yeah.
-We got a...
When we’re inside the house, the door to the back room
stays, uh, closed and locked, the one that you came through.
And the door leading to the back room,
uh, also stays closed and locked
all the time, the red door.
I have the keys.
This is the only set.
Or Sarah will have them.
Uh...
it’s the only way in and out of the house.
Everything else you see is all boarded up.
Um...
most important thing,
we--we never go out at night,
unless it’s an absolute emergency.
And even when we do go out during the day,
we like to stick to groups of two
just for safety, when, you know,
collecting wood or water and whatnot.
Same thing goes for trips to--to the bathroom,
which is a ways from the house.
Um, at nighttime, we use buckets and empty ’em.
We can talk about that another time.
Um...
firearms,
we keep them locked and squared away
in--in a safe in our room.
We’d like to do the same with yours, just for now.
-[Will] Mm-hmm. -All right. Thank you.
Um...
And meals we eat together, twice a day,
just for the sake of food and rationing, I guess.
and, uh, everybody cleans their own dishes
and just generally puts things away where they belong.
Um, it’s just like the way we like to run things,
and we think it’s important, you know,
think it’s important to keep a routine and stay busy.
Uh, oh, God.
I’m sure I’m forgetting a few things.
-There’s plenty of time to work out all the details.
-Yeah. -[Sarah] Yeah.
-Overload. Uh...
-Well, just settle in, and... -[Will] Yeah.
-uh, we’ll get working in the morning.
And welcome.
[Will] That’s perfect.
-[Kim] Thank you. -[Will] Thank you very much.
-Welcome, buddy.
He’s hiding.
[Will] Why you hidin’?
[Will and Kim speaking indistinctly]
-[Kim] And he’s very tall... -[Will] Yeah.
-[Kim] and blond. -[Will] Yeah.
[Kim] And he’s, like-- He’s a, like, surfer.
-He’s a surfer? -Mm-hmm. Cute.
[Kim] Shut up.
[Will] There’s holes in this story.
[Kim laughs]
[Andrew growls]
[Will] Ow!
Ow.
[Kim laughing]
-Terra keeps biting my foot.
Ow!
Terra just bit my toe.
Son of a bitch.
Tell him to stop biting my toe.
-[whispering] Sweetie, maybe...
get in the bath.
-What?
-Maybe you could get in the bath?
-Do I smell?
-No. [snickers]
-Those subtle hints you drop, Jesus Christ almighty.
-You don’t smell great yourself. -[Kim giggling]
-You smell like onion soup.
Smell like French onion soup.
-Oh, that sounds so good.
-[laughing] -[Will] You look pretty.
-I feel like you just say that when I look the ugliest.
-That’s when you need it the most.
-[Travis laughs] -[Kim] Thanks!
[insects chirping]
-[Paul] Uh, Bud’s property extends...
another half a mile this way.
I come down here, because I can see down into the valley
and see if--
You know, every now and then, if I see anything.
-Then what you wanna do is also come down with your legs.
It’s gonna feel awkward,
but like you’re sitting on the shitter.
You know, you just sit down on it.
No, measure it out first.
Make sure you have your distance, right?
-Okay.
-Then when you come over the top,
you bring it straight over the top, like tomahawk style,
you know, not over the shoulder.
-Straight down the middle. -Yeah.
-Over the top. Over the top.
[chop]
-Like that? -Yeah.
Okay.
So...
Oh!
-You’re good.
-[laughs]
-Nice.
Can I show you a better form so you don’t throw your back out?
-And this, see how it funnels this way?
Then we have to boil it, too.
[chickens clucking]
-[Paul] The solar use, it gives us some power
to charge batteries and whatnot.
I guess the good news is
we’re never going to run out of firewood.
[music playing]
[water splashes]
-[Kim] Such a good swimmer.
-Cold water on it.
-I know.
It’s freezing!
-[wood splits] -Whoo!
-Yeah.
Yeah.
[Sarah] So Andy, how old is he?
-[Kim] Five.
[Sarah] You must have had him when you were pretty young.
[Kim] Yeah, I guess. How old’s Travis?
-We should play, uh, "Buckets" after this.
-[laughing] -That’s happening more.
-You guess-- You guess whose is whose.
-[laughter]
-You gotta close your
-You gotta close your eyes!
[music fades]
[insects chirping]
[woman gasping]
[gasping passionately]
[man gasping]
[rapid gasping]
[gasping stops]
-[gasping]
[raindrops pattering]
Hey.
-[gasps] Oh, my God!
[giggling] I’m sorry.
-You scared me. -Sorry.
Oh, that’s okay.
-What are you doing up?
-Just can’t sleep.
-Hmm.
-I always used to come in the kitchen
and eat food if I couldn’t sleep.
What about you?
-I don’t know. Uh...
I haven’t been able to sleep for a while.
Just some bad dreams.
-You can sit down if you want.
You don’t have to just...
stand there. [chuckles]
How long has that been going on?
-What?
-Not being able to sleep?
-Um...
oh, I don’t know.
Yeah, I don’t know. I don’t know.
For a while now, I guess.
So, uh...
what are we having?
-Hmm.
Um...
I’m having bread pudding.
And a cupcake-- And a red velvet cupcake.
And a cookies and cream cupcake.
And, like, 10 different kinds of ice cream.
-That sounds so awful.
-You don’t like cupcakes? -Nope.
-You don’t like bread pudding? -Mm-mmm.
-Bread pudding? -No.
-What’s wrong with you? -I know. It’s weird.
I don’t like cupcakes, cookies, ice cream.
-Wow!
-At my birthday parties,
my mom used to make me, like, Rice Krispie cakes,
instead of, like, actual cakes.
-I’m sorry. That’s really sad.
[laughs]
-I do like-- I do like some kinds of pie...
-Oh, well, that’s good. -Yeah.
-Wow. Well, great. I’ll keep my...
disgusting bread pudding and cupcakes and ice cream
to myself over here.
-Keep it over there, please.
Thank you.
-How old are you, Travis?
-Um...
17.
-Wow.
I wasn’t that much older than you when I first met Will.
-Um...
I should just probably go to bed.
-Okay.
-Good night, Kim. -Good night.
-I’ll see you in the morning. -Yeah.
Um, yeah, I’ll see you then.
-Cool.
[Will] Whew.
[Will grunts]
All right.
Here.
I’ll take this pile down. That’s cool, eh?
-Yeah, sure.
-Thanks, Will. -No problem.
[wheelbarrow thumping]
[pump creaking]
[Paul] Good people, huh?
-Yes.
I like them here.
-Well, you just keep it in perspective, okay?
I don’t need to tell you, but...
you can’t trust anyone but family,
as good as they seem.
Just don’t forget that, okay?
-Yeah. -Yeah.
[Stanley barking]
[barking continues]
[Kim] Will?
-Uh, it’s okay. Just go inside.
-Got your gun? -Yeah.
Wh-What’s he see?
-Go inside. I’ll take care of Stanley.
-Hey, hey, stop. Stop. -What’s he see?
-I said go inside!
[barking continues]
Stanley, hey, settle down!
[Stanley yelps]
-Travis!
-Stanley!
[barking continues]
-Travis!
[barking continues]
-Stanley!
[barking stops]
[distant] Stanley!
[barking resumes]
[barking continues]
[high-pitched bark]
[barking stops]
[crunching]
-[Will] Travis! -Right here!
-What is it?
-Stanley, his-- his barking just stopped,
and I heard something up there!
-What?
[Paul] What are you doing?
What the hell are you thinking?
-His--His barking just stopped! -I don’t give a shit!
You don’t go out in the woods on your own!
I’m not losing you over your grandpa’s dog!
-Travis said that he heard something.
Where? Where?!
-There. -You see anything, Will?
-Nothing.
-All right.
Let’s get back in the house. Come on, now!
-Well, what about Stanley? -He knows the woods!
He’ll find his way home. Hustle!
Now!
Come on, Will.
Don’t you ever fuckin’ do that again.
[glass thumps]
[knock on door]
-Yeah?
[door opens]
[Paul] Hey, buddy.
[sighs]
[Travis sketching]
Hmm.
Listen. I wouldn’t worry, okay?
I think Stanley’s definitely gonna come home.
I was thinking, in the meantime,
maybe you and I could go looking at first light.
So get some rest.
-Thanks, Dad. -Sure thing.
Night, champ.
[door closes]
[door creaks]
-[Paul] Hey, close the door. -[Will] What’s this?
[door closes]
-This, uh, was Bud’s room.
Go on. Take a seat.
-Over here? -Yeah. Uh, Can you--
-There’s a light. -Yeah.
-You got it? -Got it.
Hey, uh, hey,
I want to thank you again, Paul, for letting us stay here.
It’s really some house you got.
-Yeah...
Well, thank you...
for the chickens.
-[laughs]
Oh, shit.
No, no, Paul, you don’t gotta open that, man.
-Why? You don’t...
-I do. -Well...
Bud’s stash.
-All right.
[Paul sighs]
It’s like gold.
-Oh, wow, thank you.
-Salute. -Salute.
-Oh, fuck.
That’s smooth.
-[chuckles]
So what did you do, Will...
before all this--this shit?
-What? For work?
Uhh, little bit of everything, really,
construction, demolition, and...
then I was a mechanic for a little bit.
-Oh.
-How ’bout you?
-I, uh...
was a teacher.
-Oh, yeah? -History.
-Get outta here.
-Yeah, you want to know all about the Roman Empire?
-I’m your guy. -Yeah, right.
-Did you grow up in the city?
-Uh, no. I...
I went there for Kim.
You know, I chased her there.
-Hmm.
Big family?
-No, it was just me and my dad, and...
my dad was a mechanic, and then I was just an only child.
-You’re an only child? -Yeah.
I thought, uh...
didn’t you say that ya’ll were living with your brother?
-No. Yeah, I mean, it’s technically her brother,
but he felt like my brother, my brother-in-law, you know?
-Oh.
Uh-huh.
-[sips]
[cup clatters]
[wood creaking]
-[sighs] I think, uh...
I’m gonna...
gonna hit the hay.
[door opens]
[wind blowing]
[door opens]
[Andrew moaning softly]
-Andrew?
[moaning continues]
Andrew.
Andrew, wake up, buddy. Come on. Wake up.
Wake up.
-Where am I?
-You’re just in another room, buddy.
It’s okay. Come on. Let’s get you back to bed.
Okay?
Come on.
Take my hand.
All right?
You’re okay.
Come on. Go to bed.
[Kim sighs]
[door closes]
[creaking]
[music playing]
[creaking]
[thumping, creaking]
[thumping]
-Dad?
[scraping]
Dad?
-[thump] -[panting]
[door thumps]
Someone’s in the house! Someone’s in the house!
-Where? -Downstairs!
-Where are your mask and gloves? -In my room.
-Go get ’em now! Go ahead!
[Will] Oh, fuck.
[Stanley whimpering]
-Oh, shit.
[Sarah] Stay back.
[Paul] Oh.
All right, that’s it.
Back up. There’s blood.
[Sarah] What’s going on?
-You wait here? -Yeah, okay.
-Let’s go, uh, talk in the living room.
[Sarah] What’s going on?
-Just wait.
It’s, uh, Stanley, and h-he’s sick.
-What?
-Honey...
take Travis, and, uh, get Andrew and Kim.
Wait in the living room, I’m gonna--
Will and I are gonna handle it.
-I wanna see him.
-Yeah, well, y-you can’t.
-I mean, how do you even know he’s sick, Dad?
I mean, I wanna see him.
-No, just stop.
-I mean, this is bullshit! -Hey! Hey!
-I wanna--Bullshit!
-Do you want me to be the bad guy?
I will be the bad guy!
You’re not going in the room, all right?
He is fuckin’ sick! Now go to the living room!
Honey, go. Take him to the living room.
-I am very sorry, Travis. -Come on, sweetie.
-Go. Please, please.
-Now. -Let’s go.
[door closes]
[gunshot]
-[sobbing]
[splashing]
[Paul] I think, um...
Will and I should be the only ones
who go outside for a while.
We don’t know what made Stanley sick.
It could have been an animal, another person, anything.
Travis, uh...
you didn’t go inside the room before we got there, correct?
-Positive.
-You just opened the door?
Yeah? Right? You didn’t go in?
-I didn’t touch the door.
[Paul] What?
-It--It was already open.
-The door was open when you got there?
-Yeah.
[Paul] Uh...
-Okay, well, then who opened the door?
-[Paul] Yeah. -I don’t know.
I mean...
-Maybe Andrew? -[Kim] What?
Andrew was asleep in our room.
-No, he wasn’t. He was in Grandpa’s room--
-What are you talking about?
-I-I put him in there before you both woke up.
-Travis, why are we only hearing about this now?
-I don’t know. I mean,
-when was I supposed to-- -Back up.
Tell us everything that happened.
-Andrew was in Grandpa’s room.
and he was having a nightmare, so I woke him up,
and I brought him to your room.
Then I went to the back hallway,
saw the door open,
heard something, and then I woke everyone up.
-Andrew was in the other room?
-Yes.
-Is that true, baby?
-I don’t--I can’t remember.
-Did you see Stanley last night?
-I can’t remember. -Andrew,
think real hard, and tell Mommy what you remember.
-I can’t remember.
-How can you not remember?
-Does he sleepwalk? -[Kim] No, he doesn’t sleepwalk.
[Will] This doesn’t make any sense,
’cause Andrew is barely tall enough to reach those locks.
Y-You’re positive that the door was already open?
-Yes! -How can you be positive?
It was the middle of the night. You could’ve been half-asleep.
-He said he was sure. -I was wide awake.
I-I’m positive. Maybe--
-Look, I’m not saying you’re lying, Travis.
I’m just saying it was the middle of the night,
Maybe you’re not remembering correctly.
-I know what I saw. I’m sorry,
but the door was open before I got there.
-All right, I’m not gonna jump to any conclusions, but...
just to be safe, I think that...
we all shouldn’t interact for a day or so.
-Dad, I’m sure it’s fine.
-Listen, I’m just taking proper precautions, okay?
How’s that sound? Does it sound fair to everybody?
-Yeah.
-All right, Will, Kim, get enough food and water,
and take Andrew, and go--
go to your room, and stay there for a while, okay?
Now.
-Okay.
-Go now.
I’m really sorry, but I just think
that we can’t take any risks right now.
Sarah, Travis, we’re gonna do the same.
-I’ll get everything that we-- -I just think that...
-Just please-- -we should probably--
-Just let’s go. -Yeah.
I just think it’s better if we stay apart for a couple of days.
-Okay.
-I’m sure everything’s gonna be fine.
[door closes]
Travis.
Come here.
I just want you to look me in the eye
and tell-- tell me that you’re...
telling the truth.
You didn’t touch the door?
-No.
Okay, did you touch him?
Andrew? Did you touch him?
-Yeah, I mean...
Yeah.
I mean, I held his hand, and I...
and I brought him to his room.
-And you weren’t wearing gloves and mask, right?
-I mean, Dad, I-- I mean,
why would I wear them inside the house, you know?
-Okay.
Okay, we’re--
We’re all gonna wash up,
and then we’re not leaving this room.
Okay.
-It’s okay.

[Will] Buddy, you gotta try to stay quiet.
Shh. Shh.
[Andrew] Out. Out. [groans]
[Will] Look at me. Don’t be bad. Just stay quiet.
[Kim] We need to leave.
-[Will] I know. I know. -[Andrew crying]
[Kim] They’re going to hear him.
[Will] I know.
[door opens]
[Andrew crying] Out.
-Mom.
Mom.
-Oh, my God. What is it?
-Oh. So what’s going on?
-It’s Andrew.
-I think he might be sick. -[Paul] What?
-What are you talking about? -I don’t know. Andrew was--
He was crying, and I was listening in the attic,
and they said they needed to leave.
-What? -Andrew was crying,
and Kim said they needed to leave.
-Shh, shh.
[Andrew crying]
[Sarah] Do you hear anything?
-Yeah.
How are you feeling?
-What?
-Are you feeling okay?
-Yeah. Yeah, I’m fine.
[lock clicking]
Wh-What do you want to do?
-We don’t have many options.
-What does that mean?
-If they want to leave,
they’re gonna want to take our food and water.
-No, I mean, why can’t we just give them what’s fair,
and take them back to the house they were at.
-Where do you think they’re gonna go if they run out?
-You haven’t seen people when they get desperate.
[Travis] I mean, they wouldn’t just come back here
-and put us at risk like that. -[Sarah] We don’t know that.
-Come on! -We don’t know these people.
We don’t know if anything they’ve said is even true.
This is the man that tried to break into our house.
-’Cause he was trying to get food and water for his family.
Dad would’ve done the same thing.
[Sarah] I don’t think we could take the chance.
I don’t think we could risk it.
[Travis] You don’t get it.
If they’re sick...
then I am, too.
-No. No, we don’t know that, okay? We don’t know that.
We’ll be right back.
I want you to stay here, though.
You--You wait here until we get back, okay?
Okay?
Hey, I love you.

[Kim] It’s okay.
[Will] You gotta try to stay quiet, okay?
[Andrew] I don’t want it!
Mommy! Mama!
[Kim] Mommy’s here. Shh.
-It’s okay. -[knocking]
[Paul] Hello.
[Will] Yeah?
-Is everything okay?
[Will] Uh, yeah. Andrew just had a nightmare. that’s all.
I’m sorry to--Sorry to wake you.
-Mind if I come in and check on him?
[Will] Uh, no, it’s not a good time right now, Paul.
You know, you said it yourself,
We shouldn’t see each other, you know, right now.
-I just want to make sure that Andrew’s okay. That’s all.
[Will] Yeah, I know. I know. It’s just everything
that’s been going on, it’s been a lot.
-Yeah. Yeah, I understand, but, uh,
I’d feel a whole lot better if I could just come in
and take a look at him. That’s all.
Do you think I-I could do that?
-Will? -[doorknob clicks]
Come on, Will. Just...
Be reasonable, man. This is my house.
-[Andrew] No! -I invited you here.
Will, o-open the fuckin’ door, man! Come on!
Open the door!
[Will] Okay. All right.
-All right. -[Kim] It’s okay.
[Will] Keep him quiet.
[latch clicking]
-I’m sorry. I just...
-Where’s, uh, Travis and Sarah?
-They’re in our--
-No, take your hand off the gun!
Take your hand off of it right now!
-Will, Will-- -Take your hand off the gun.
-Okay.
-Come in...
and shut the door.
-And go to the corner. -Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All the way to the corner, Paul. All the way.
-All the way. All the way. -Yeah, all right.
Where did you get that gun?
-Take your ma-- Why’s your mask on?
Nobody’s sick here. Take it off!
Take the fuckin’ mask off!
[Andrew crying]
-Andrew, keep your eyes closed for me, buddy.
Okay.
Listen, Paul, I’m sorry, okay?
We appreciate everything that you’ve done,
but we want to leave.
We’re all packed up.
I know how you are,
but if you go near my wife or my kid,
I’ll end your fuckin’ life.
-I mean-- -Listen.
We just want what’s fair.
We want enough food and enough water.
Then we’re gonna go,
and you’re never gonna see us again.
Do you understand?
-Yeah.
-[Andrew whimpering] -All right, baby, come on.
Keep your eyes closed for me, buddy.
It’s okay.
-Will, if he’s sick--
-Shh! Shh! Quiet.
Quiet!
[opening door]
Okay. Okay. All right.
Stay there.
All right, come on.
Just move slowly.
-All right -Paul, don’t!
Turn around.
Go!
Go to the stairs.
It’s okay, baby. Be careful. Be careful.
Hands up. Just walk down.

Okay.
[gasping]

[Sarah] Give the gun to Paul.
-Sarah...
We just wanna leave.
-Give the gun to Paul. -I’m sorry. I can’t do that.
-[Kim] Will, what’s going on? -It’s okay, baby.
[Sarah] Don’t do this.
-Look, Sarah, we can work this out
if we both lower our guns.
We just want to leave,
and we want what’s fair, enough for the both of us,
and you’ll never see us again.
All right?
-[Sarah] Okay. -Okay.
How ’bout this?
I’m gonna count to three,
and we both lower our guns. Good?
-Yeah.
-Okay.
[Kim] Will.
-One...
two...
three.
Are we good, Sarah?
I just wanna talk.
Hey! No!
-[overlapping yelling] -Paul!
-Kim, run!
-Don’t move!
-Where’s Kim? -I don’t know!
-Where’d she go? -I don’t know!
See what you did?
Huh? You see what you did?!
See what you made me do?
-Stop! Don’t! Just stop!
Just--Just get in the corner!
Move! Move!
Sit down!
-Please just let us go!
-I promise if you let us go... -Stop talking!
-you’ll never see us... -Stay still!
Just don’t move!
-All right.
Give me your fuckin’ hands!
-No. Paul, wait. -Stop movin’!
