(Wind whistling)
(SOS Morse code beeping repeatedly)
(Person moaning)
(Both panting)
(Man): Come on!
Come on!
Let us in!
(Woman): Open the door! - Let us in!
(Man coughing)
(Grunts)
- Get up.
- Give me another day.
One more day.
- One more day isn't gonna make any difference.
- Please! Just give me some more meds.
- You've had your meds, Hal. You're getting worse.
- Put me back in quarantine,
just till tomorrow.
I'll get better.
(Wheezing, coughing)
- You're not gonna get better, Hal.
(Panting)
- I'll-I'll take the walk.
It's my choice.
- Not today.
- You can't do this! It's-it's my choice!
- It's my job.
Make your peace. - Mason!
- He tested positive, Sam.
(Coughing)
- He has a choice.
Let him walk.
- He'll just come back. They always do.
We can't let him infect the rest of the colony.
- Mason!
This isn't right.
- This is survival.
(Sighs)
Nothing personal.
- His time was up. That's all, Sam.
(Sam): In this place, we live in fear of the common cold.
The last flu wiped out 20 people in less than a week.
So now we've got rules.
You get sick, you go into quarantine.
If you don't get better, you've got a choice...
a bullet or a long walk in the snow.
At least, that's how it's supposed to work.
After the snow started, the lucky ones found places like this,
a place where life could exist underneath the ice.
(Buzzing)
When I got here,
we were hundreds living on top of each other,
everyone just thankful
they'd made it out of the cities alive.
When the food ran out,
most of the people in the world died.
But not the people in this place,
where seeds were stored underground,
kept safe for a better day.
Some people, they talk about a place, a paradise,
with blue skies and birds as far as you can see.
Those are just stories. Εverybody knows that.
So we hold on,
hibernating, like the last Dark Age.
But it's not the cold we need to worry about;
it's each other.
Briggs!
- What's up, Sam? - I need to talk to you.
- Don't start. Hal knew the rules.
Blood test was positive and he wasn't getting better.
We don't have the meds to keep fighting this flu anymore
and we can't risk another outbreak.
- But why do we leave it to the one guy who loves to pull the trigger?
- This colony started with over 400 people.
And I've done too much surface time
with a shotgun in one hand and a shovel in the other.
I've had my fill of blood in the snow.
Now, Mason is just doing what has to be done.
- But he's not doing it right. He didn't give him a choice.
Hal wanted to walk, not take a bullet.
(Buzzer sounding)
- Well, right now, we have a bigger issue.
(SOS Morse code beeping repeatedly)
- Calling Colony 5, this is Colony 7. Over.
Colony 5, this is Colony 7.
Come on, guys. Over.
- What's up?
- SOS loop from Colony 5.
- SOS? You sure it's 5? - It's gotta be.
It's their code. Marcus always checks in.
- When was the last time you had contact with him?
- About seven days.
They said they were gonna be down for radio repairs
and they've been dead air until about an hour ago.
(Sighs)
- Okay, make an announcement.
General meeting in the main hall in 30 minutes.
- Okay, for who? - For everyone.
I want you to go see Viktor, Sam.
He's having a problem with the livestock.
(Sighs)
- Right.
- Attention!
All colonists report to the main hall in 30 minutes.
I repeat,
all colonists please report to the main hall in 30 minutes.
Thank you.
(Clucking)
- Are you gonna try and save these rabbits too?
Another stillborn litter.
- Hmm, they need protein,
just like us.
How many are left?
- Twelve in all.
But this here...
is the only female.
(Clicking tongue, sighs)
You know you're screwed when even the rabbits won't fuck.
- Let me see what I can get from Kai.
(Buzzer sounding)
- Mason! What's going on?
- What are you talking about?
- What happened up there with Hal?
- Sam come running to you?
- What gives you the right to take away the man's choice?
- His choice was made when he tested positive.
- That is not how we do things. We give people a choice.
It's theirs to make regardless of the outcome.
- Till they come back.
Till the food runs out.
- It's not a problem until it's a problem.
- You gave me this job to do.
Now let me do it.
- Mason!
- You know...
you'd think with someone you served with,
you'd give them a little more respect.
(Buzzer sounding)
(Jazz music)
(Beep)
(Chuckles)
- Almost had you.
- No, you didn't.
What do you need?
- Soy pellets.
The rabbits aren't doing so hot.
Where's this?
- Uh, somewhere in Spain, I think.
- You never give up, do you?
- No.
No one thought Briggs could fix that link to that old satellite,
but he did.
- So?
- So all that weather-modification tech is out there.
It's just buried under the ice.
- Well, that's where it should stay.
Buried.
- Sam, somewhere, someone is working on a fix.
And when there's a thaw, I'm gonna find it.
- Will you take me with you?
- There's not a lot of choice down here.
You'll have to do.
- Hal's gone.
- Well, we live and die by our rules, Sam.
- We should get to the meeting.
(Lively music)
Tell me baby
What you gonna do
Tell me baby
What you gonna do...
- Breathe slowly. You can't cough, okay?
- Hey, I fixed that crack in the north vent for you.
- Thanks, Sam. That's great.
- Dex...
You all right?
- Yeah. Yeah, I'm good.
- You're not looking so hot.
- No, no, it's good. I'm fine.
- Maybe you should go back to your room, huh?
- All right, listen up.
A few hours ago, we received a distress signal from Colony 5.
(Colonists murmuring)
They haven't responded to any radio calls.
Given that Colony 3 shuttered last year,
I think they're worth checking up on.
Cooper, I want you to see what kind of radio parts we have to spare.
- Okay.
- We've got nothing to spare.
- Mason, we're sending a team, and I'm leading it.
I need two volunteers.
- What if they've been hit with a new flu?
- We'll take all precautions.
We'll go into quarantine when we get back.
That's what it's there for.
- Quarantine's a fucking joke.
We're barely surviving here.
- We need to take care of our own, Briggs.
- We made a pact with Colony 5
and we need to look after each other.
- Yes, we did, and we're going. End of discussion.
- Dexter...
I need a skilled set of hands with me out there.
- I'll go.
Dex needs to stay in case the turbines break down.
(Briggs): Thank you, Sam.
Anyone else?
Anyone?
- Take me.
(Viktor): Graydon, no.
- Please don't go. - I know I haven't logged
a lot of surface time, but I can do it.
- Thank you, Graydon.
You'll do well.
All right!
Kai will be in charge until I'm back.
Rations are still in effect,
although I've authorized regular portions for the children.
Work details continue as usual. We'll be in touch by radio.
(Sneezes)
(Colonists gasping, woman coughing) (Man): She's sick...
- Come on.
(Man): Get her out of here.
(Briggs): Quarantine until further notice.
(Dex): It's okay. It's gonna be okay.
(Mason): You really should have said something earlier, Dex.
(Woman coughing)
(Air hissing)
They're done, Briggs.
- They're sick, and we follow procedure.
- They just put the whole colony at risk.
We need to give them the test right now.
- We're gonna wait until I get back and see if they're any better.
Until then, Kai's in charge.
- You really think she can make the tough calls?
- That's really not your decision to make, is it?
Are we clear?
- Crystal.
(Muffled): Mom!
(Panting)
Oh my...
- You okay?
- That fucking dream.
- It wasn't your fault.
(Sniffles)
Why don't you come back to bed?
- Yeah.
The world froze a long time ago.
So long ago, that I can't remember the warmth of the sun.
I heard the stories growing up,
how the planet grew hotter as our fuel was burned,
how we made towers to work the weather.
But the truth is, one day,
it started to snow,
and it never stopped.
(Wind howling)
(Graydon): Hey, is that what I think it is?
(Sam): Weather modification.
- I've never seen one this close before.
Think it still works?
- It did its damage a long time ago.
(Bridge creaking)
- We gotta cross this thing?
- Unless you wanna go down there...
- We make our way around on the left.
- Yeah.
(Briggs): Whoa! (Graydon): Oh! Whoa!
- Watch your step.
- Guys!
What is that?
- What the hell is he doing out here?
- We gotta keep moving.
- God, how cool would it be to fly one of these things, huh?
Hey, Briggs, what was this used for?
- Medevac.
Used to airlift people to safety.
- I wish I could have seen that.
- Briggs to Colony 7. Cooper, come in.
(Static)
- Colony 7 here. Good to hear your voice, Briggs.
- Copy that. Good to hear yours.
We're camped out at the helicopter for the night,
so we should reach Colony 5 by noon tomorrow.
What about you? Got any news?
- Dex and Εlena are still in quarantine
and they're both getting worse.
They have all the symptoms. Mason's pushing for the test.
- Mason knows that's against protocol.
That's why I left Kai in charge.
- Yeah, he's not too happy about that.
- I know.
There's gonna be some changes made when I get back.
Cooper, you have my authority to use force if necessary.
Mason is not to take them for a walk without my consent.
- I understand.
You guys be safe out there, okay? Over and out.
- Over and out.
(Sighs)
(Chuckles)
- We could give you some time alone with that or...
(Chuckles)
- Maybe...
(Laughing)
- You know, Sam, we're not too far from where I found you.
- Yeah.
- What were you doing out here?
- Well...
it was a long time ago.
- Go on, tell him. We've got all night.
- Um, my family, um...
we were holed up about 40 miles north of here in a mine.
Uh, just us, some mining families
and a couple of old-timers.
We, uh, got supplies in there,
shovelled the entrance out every day.
Eventually, the supplies ran out.
Food ran out.
So after we ate the horses and the dogs...
my dad and the other men went into the city
to go get some help, but...
they never came back, so...
And people started dying.
The way things were going,
I needed to get them out of there,
my mother and my sister.
I figured we had a better chance out there.
(Sighs)
Anyway, a storm came up and...
we got separated and I never saw them again.
I'd be dead too if Briggs hadn't found me.
- You were a boy, Sam. You did the best you could.
- Yeah.
- Hey, what is this?
Guys, that's blood. We shouldn't be going in there.
- We came here to help. That's what we're gonna do.
- You smell that?
- Smoke.
(Graydon coughs)
(Flare hitting ground)
- You know, maybe one of us should just stay topside, huh?
- We stick together.
You're coming.
(Weakly): Right.
(Clanging)
(Sam): How many were there at last count?
- Fifty.
Not so much of a welcoming committee this time.
- What the fuck happened here?
- Hey, you remember how to use this?
- Yeah. - You sure?
- Let's move, okay? - This way.
(Water dripping)
- They're all dead. - We don't know that for sure.
(Distant noise)
(Banging)
- What the fuck was that?
(Repeated banging)
- Someone's alive.
It's coming from over here. - Sam, wait, wait, wait.
- In here.
- This door's taken a lot of punishment.
- Shit! Hey, come on, let's get the hell out of here, huh?
- Hey! Find a spine, boy.
(Click)
You got it?
- Is he dead?
(Screaming)
- Shit!
Calm down! Calm down! Calm down!
(Whimpers)
- Don't! Don't!
(Sam): Shh, shh... (Briggs): Easy, easy...
- Please, don't!
- We're here to help.
- Please! D-don't!
(Sam): Shh... It's okay.
Calm down.
Are you hurt?
- Are they gone?
- Who?
- The door! Lock the door!
- Get the door!
- He needs water.
- No, easy. Go easy. Easy, easy, easy.
(Sighs)
What's your name?
- Leland.
- Leland...
- Have you got any food? I'm so hungry.
- Yeah, I've got some in here.
- How long have you been locked in here?
- I-I don't know. Days.
- Is there anyone else? Is anyone else alive?
- Define alive.
(Chuckles)
That's good. Mm!
(Leland chewing)
- We're from Colony 7.
We got your distress signal.
We came to help.
- Leland...
What happened?
- We fixed the steel grid to a new antenna.
When-when it finally worked,
its reach was amazing.
We received a... partial transmission.
You're gonna love this.
- I repeat, we have modified a weather tower
and successfully reversed the cooling process.
Clouds have receded to a 3-mile radius and are expanding.
We have thawed permafrost.
We have melted pack ice.
We now have soil. We have sun.
We now have the conditions to grow, but we have no seeds.
If anyone out there can hear this,
I repeat, our location.
Our location: latitude 47 degrees north.
(Static)
(Sam): Is that it? Is that all there is?
- We triangulated the transmission
and sent a team to find the source.
But they never found it.
But somebody found them.
(Crying): And followed them right back here.
- Who?
Leland, who followed you?
Here. Look at me.
Over here. Show me, on this map.
Where did that transmission come from?
Point. We're right here.
- North, on this line.
And 25 degrees is here.
South... There.
- Listen to me.
We're gonna take you back to Colony 7 with us.
- No, please, sir. I- I'm gonna stay here.
Right here, behind this door.
What if they're still here? - There's no one here.
We only knew that you were here because of the knocking.
- Yeah, but I didn't knock.
They're still here!
(Sobbing): They're still here.
- Radio Colony 7.
You tell them we're on our way back. Time for us to pack up and go.
Take anything we can carry.
- Okay. It's okay. It's all right.
(Static)
- Calling Colony 7.
Colony 7, can you read me? Over.
Colony 7, come in!
This is Graydon calling in. Can you read me? Over.
It's not working.
- All right, we're too deep underground.
We'll radio ahead when we get back topside.
You, Leland, you're coming with us.
- You don't understand! It's safe behind this door!
(Sam): There's 50 colonists. You're the only one behind it.
- I-I couldn't open it. I- I just couldn't.
(Screaming in distance)
(Bang, screaming)
(Briggs): Get him on his feet.
- No, please. - Come on, let's go.
(Bang, screaming)
- What the fuck was that?
- No!
Shit!
He locked himself back inside.
- Come on.
(Moaning in distance)
(Sam): Graydon, let's go!
(Woman in distance): No!
(Bang, woman sobbing)
(Creaking)
(Woman wailing, bang)
No!
(Bang) No!
(Chains clanking)
(Bang)
(Metal object being dragged, clank)
(Whispering): We shouldn't be here.
This has nothing to do with us.
(Whispering): Turn that light out.
(Repeated banging)
My God...
(Graydon whimpers)
(Sniffing)
(Gunshot)
(Screaming)
(Gunshot)
(Snarling)
We gotta go, Sam.
(Screeching)
Now! (Gunshot)
(All snarling)
(Panting and whimpering)
(Distant screaming)
(Gunshot)
Go, go, go, go!
- Come on!
- Fuck...
(Screaming) (Gunfire)
(Shouting)
(Screams)
- Come on, Sam. Come on!
Damn! Graydon.
(Man screaming)
He's gone. We gotta move.
Go on. Go!
Go! Go!
- Come on!
(Man howling) (Gunfire)
Fuck! I'm out!
- Come on! Go, go!
(Both snarling)
(Panting)
(Man howling)
(Snorting)
(Screaming)
- Briggs!
(Voice echoing)
Here, give me your hand. Give me your hand!
There are still people alive down there.
- We can't help them, Sam.
We can't help them.
(Panting)
- Briggs, don't you think we should keep moving?
- No, the temperature's dropping too fast. We won't make it.
Come on.
- Briggs? - Yeah?
- Those people...
how can they...
- I don't know, Sam.
When people are desperate, they'll do...
horrible things to survive.
I told you I was an army captain
during the relief effort, right?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, well, I never told you what I saw.
When...
when people lose control like that,
when we go feral...
there's nothing human left in us at all.
We might as well just be a pack of wild dogs.
See, during the relief effort,
we had, uh, 20,000 people corralled in a stadium.
Food got handed out. The sick got treated.
But when the food ran out...
the people with guns
started taking things from the people without guns.
And then...
when there was nothing left to take...
they took people upstairs
and decided who would live and who would die.
It was... it was the hunger.
People couldn't take it. It just drove them mad.
We tried to stop it, we really did, but...
we couldn't.
Me and Mason - he was in my squad back then -
we-we left and tried to find a place
where we could make sure that nothing like that would happen.
(Sighs)
- You did.
- Maybe.
- You did.
That transmission...
- When we get back,
we'll patch into the satellite and take a look.
If they've got the sun, we've got the seeds.
- No...
No, no, no! - How many?!
- Twenty! Maybe more! It's hard to tell!
Oh fuck...
Our footprints!
Shit! We're gonna lead them back to the colony!
- We'll stop them at the bridge. Come on.
Come on!
- Briggs, what are you doing?! - Stopping them!
Block the wind!
Okay.
No!
- What? - The fuse is out!
- Fuck!
- I'm gonna relight it. - What are you doing? Briggs!
- Listen to me. We're fine.
I light it. I come back.
We go home. - It's too late!
(Groaning)
Briggs!
- Come on!
- Come on. Get it done.
- Come on! Come on!
(Screeching)
(Screaming)
Yes!
Come on, you dogs!
(Screaming)
(Bridge creaking)
(Rifle bolt clicking)
(Elena whimpering)
- Please. Just give her the goddamn test!
- No more tests.
- No! Oh no! No!
(Dex sobbing)
- Mason!
- Things are gonna change around here.
- Are you fucking crazy?
- No.
I'm seeing things clearly.
You know the test is bullshit.
The delay just puts us all at risk.
- Drop... your gun!
- Help!
Help!
- Sam?
Sam!
- Oh fuck!
Fuck!
- Sam!
Sam! Sam...
Come on, come on.
- Hey, you're okay. You're safe.
- How long have I been out?
- A few hours.
(Gulping)
(Sam breathing heavily)
- Sam? Where is he?
Where's my boy?
- I tried.
- No...
(Crying)
- No!
- We lost Briggs too.
What are you doing?
- There's been a change in command.
We need to take precautions.
Briggs' rules don't work anymore.
We need to be tougher to survive.
From now on, rations will be cut in half.
Anyone showing signs of sickness will be tested immediately.
If you don't pull your weight, you don't eat.
- Mason!
Where's Kai?
- What happened, Sam?
What happened out there?
- They killed them.
Everybody at Colony 5 is dead.
Briggs cut them off at the bridge.
Stopped them.
- Stopped who? - These people...
they slaughtered everybody...
for food.
Do you understand?
And they're coming here.
And unless we get out of here, they will kill us.
- And where are we gonna go?
- There's a thaw. I know where it is, okay?
I can get us out of here. I can show you where-
- He's in shock. Give him a sedative.
- Let me show you where it is.
- No one's going anywhere. Viktor, let's go topside.
- You need to listen to me! - Viktor!
Are you with me?
- Mason, you need to listen to me.
Mason!
- Sam...
- No. Nothing.
You know, Sam's a lot of things, but he's not a liar.
If he says something's coming for us, we better be ready for them.
(Blows)
- Keep an eye on the monitors.
(Sighs)
- Sam!
- Oh my God, are you okay? Oh my God! Did he hit you?
- It's fine.
- Did he hit you?! - I'm fine!
Are you okay? - Give me a sec.
- Ah... - There. Come here.
- What happened out there?
- I gotta show you something.
- Bring up 2.
- Nothing.
- This is bullshit!
- Mason!
Sam got away.
- And how did he do that?
Rowan. That little bastard!
Come on, let's go!
- 47 above the line...
- What are you looking for? - A thaw.
Come on.
- Sam...
Sam, there is nothing there. I've already looked.
- No, it's here. I know it's here.
- Sam...
- Come on.
There it is.
- Holy shit!
- Look... - Oh my God!
That's gotta be, like, 8 miles of blue sky!
- Let's go. Come on.
- They took the weapons, the maps, everything.
- Shit! They didn't take these.
- What are you doing, Sam?
Sam, what are you doing? - We need to tell the others
and we need to get the hell out of here. Let's go. Come on.
Come on, come on, come on.
- Going somewhere? - Yeah.
We're getting everyone together and we're leaving.
- No one's leaving.
- Go fuck yourself, Mason! - Hey!
If we don't leave right now-
- Briggs is gone. I'm running things now.
- When everyone's dead, huh,
and you're king of the fucking castle, then what?
- I'll still be running things.
(Banging)
- Oh shit!
We're too late.
(Clanging)
- Oh my God! It's Dex.
- Believe me now?
- Anyone who can fire a weapon, get them to the entrance.
We'll hold them there. And get everybody else to the vault!
- Let's go. Go on!
(Banging)
- Come on, buddy, let's go. It's gonna be all right.
Come on, guys!
Let's go! Let's go!
(Bang, clattering)
(Thud, clattering)
(Repeated banging)
- You led them straight to us.
- They're breaking the hinges.
(Mason): Fuck!
(Clang, screws dropping)
(Wind whistling)
(Clanging)
- Behind us.
(Clattering)
(Snarls)
(Whimpering)
(Woman screaming)
(Clattering)
(Whispering): They're already inside.
In the vents.
- Oh...
(Shrieks)
- Mason!
(Mason): Here they come!
(Feral man shrieking)
- Fall back!
- No! No more running!
(Hisses)
- Everybody in the main hall!
(Screams)
(Snarls)
(Feral men snarling)
(Woman screaming)
- I'm out.
- We couldn't make it to the vault. What the hell is going on out there?
- They're inside. They're everywhere.
There's no time.
(Kai): No! No!
(Both): No!
- Let us in! Let us in!
- What are you doing?
- I'm saving our lives. - Oh!
(Kai): Let us in! (Mason): Open up!
- Get back! (Banging on door)
(Kai): Mason!
(Grunting)
(Feral man snarling)
(Gunfire)
(Snarling)
(Distant shouting) - The doors!
(Feral men shrieking)
- You locked us out of here.
- Yes. - Fucking piece of shit!
- These doors are not gonna hold.
- We need to get the fuck out of here!
This leads to the surface.
- You'll freeze, if those things don't find you first.
(Feral man roaring)
(Grunting)
- It's our only chance!
- No, we stay. Hold them off here.
- Come on, let's go! - We stay!
- Just leave him.
- Come on, come on!
Let's go! Let's go!
Move. Come on!
Let's go! Come on, let's go!
Nothing personal.
You're gonna need every bullet.
- Come and get it, motherfucker!
(Clucking)
(Roaring)
- What do you want?
- More.
(Screaming)
(Panting)
(Screams, growling)
- Kai, look.
(Colonists coughing)
(Coughing)
- Sam!
Sam... Sam...
What do we do now?
- We walk.
With these...
at least we have a chance.
Now come on.
Come on, let's go.
We used to live and die by the rules we made.
Come on.
But our rules, like everything else we built...
are breaking down.
There's only one rule left now anyway,
one rule above all...
survive.
Come on.
