03:20If anyone is receiving this, my name is Xavier Collins.
03:23I'm flying to Atlanta to find my wife, Dr. Terry Rogers Collins, who sent a radio transmission
03:29from somewhere near the city center.
03:33Terry, if you didn't miss, the kids are safe.
03:36They're in a Colorado bunker community near 39 degrees north, 105 degrees west.
03:43Terry, trust me.

04:48I don't know.
05:22I don't know.
05:26The training officer said you were on pace to break the academy's course record.
05:30Sorry, it sucks.
05:31It was his record.
05:32It sucks for him because I'm still going to beat it.
05:34Possible ligament damage.
05:36We'll confirm that with an MRI.
05:38That's going to require surgery.
05:40Then there's your kneecap.
05:41You've suffered a patellar dislocation.
05:44Can I see it?
05:45You don't need that picture.
05:46Yeah.
05:47Yeah.
05:51Mmm.
05:55Mmm.
06:12Well, to perform the reduction, I'm going to need to cradle your lower leg.
06:15Flex your hip, then extend your leg.
06:17I'm going to apply force to the lateral edge.
06:19Push the kneecap back in place.
06:22All I know is backhand.
06:24I'll hear a clunk.
06:26So I'm listening for a clunk.
06:27You won't be listening to anything.
06:30We're going to sedate you for the same year.
06:32It's not something you want to feel.
06:33Trust me.
06:39Fuck.
06:45Relax, you quiet.
06:46Listen for the clunk.
06:56Shh.
07:25That's my bird.
07:30You know what I said, son?
07:32These are my things.
07:33My books, my maps.
07:35Half my life is in the egg.
07:48Give it back.
07:49Hey, give it...
08:03Boy, then.
08:10Hey, hey.
08:12Hey.
08:20I don't know.
08:44I don't know.
09:38I don't know.
09:46I don't know.
09:50I don't know.
09:53I don't know.
09:58I don't know.
10:34I need to deal with my knee.
10:45Oh, jeez.
10:51Is there anything else I can get you, Mr. Coen's?
10:53Any chance you got an extra blanket lying around, a warm one for the foot of the bag?
10:57Yeah, no problem.
10:58Oh, one more thing.
10:59Is there any chance I could swap out this cherry-flavored Jell-O for a different flavor?
11:03For a man who begged to be awake during knee surgery, I didn't expect you to be so damn needy.
11:07My mother always said I wasn't a good patient because I have no patience.
11:11I know, I know.
11:12As for my cherry-jella hatred, it comes from when I was a kid.
11:15I had the flu and my mother gave me cherry flavor and my stomach was really raw.
11:18I'll get you a different flavor.
11:19I'll get you a little bit of a much.
11:21On a scale of 1 to 10, what's your pain level right now?
11:24Maybe a 5?
11:26Say, is that way to tonight?
11:27Maybe you'll be discharged.
11:29Thank God for us all.
11:30Uh-huh.
11:31Look, I don't know what other flavors you have, but if you happen to have green or yellow,
11:36I'd probably rank them green, yellow, orange, shit.
11:41It's lime.
11:51Shit.
12:01You don't want it?
12:02What I want is to have my surgery and get the hell out of here.
12:06Yeah.
12:07Yeah, I already had mine.
12:10Some meniscal reconstruction.
12:11Yes, I've heard.
12:13We've all heard.
12:15I'm Xavier.
12:17It's nice to meet you.
12:22Terry.
12:25What an absolute pleasure.
12:36I'm all set, nurse.
12:37My roomie gave me hers.
12:39I'll take it.
12:42You know, now that I think about it, I think, um, the pain in my knee is closer to an
12:488.
12:50So maybe I should stay a little bit longer.
12:54You don't have a chance.
12:56We'll see.
13:08That's my bag.
13:11We can share the food, but I need my stuff.
13:15Please, I need my things.
13:23Hey, kids.
13:24I, I, I need water, and I need to deal with my knee.
13:59Who are those men with the torches?
14:06I need to get back to my plane.
14:16I need to pop my knee back into place.
14:21And I don't want to scare you guys, but it's going to hurt.
14:23I'm probably going to scream and pass out from the pain.
14:27Can you grab me that cord from the back?
14:30Cord, please.
14:56I don't know.
15:26I don't know.
15:35I don't know.
15:59You do realize that curtain is there for a reason.
16:02I, uh, just got back from a walk.
16:06The doctor wants me to start moving and putting weight on my knee.
16:10Ambulation.
16:10It's his word.
16:12Good for you.
16:14They're having a birthday party at the nurse's station.
16:17And they have cake.
16:19Fun.
16:21I could get you a piece.
16:23More ambulation.
16:25No, I think I'm good.
16:27No.
16:27I don't feel excuse me.
16:28What are the cards for?
16:29I'm studying.
16:31What are you studying?
16:33I am pursuing a doctorate in cell molecular and organismal biology.
16:39And I don't need a study partner.
16:41That's probably for the best.
16:44Okay, I think I'm going to close the curtain.
16:46Who?
16:46Oh, God.
16:47I got it.
16:50You were probably not supposed to bend down.
16:52No, it's ambulation, remember?
16:54Let's call the nurse.
16:55What's this?
16:58I'm going to need a phalloids?
17:00I'm going to need your number in a second, you know what I'm saying?
17:07You'd like it.
17:08It's a type of mushroom.
17:11An invasive species of mushroom.
17:19Okay.
17:21Oh, you don't have to do it.
17:22I'm fine.
17:23I'm okay.
17:39What are you in here for?
17:42Congenital scoliosis.
17:45Back pain has been my constant companion my entire life,
17:49but doctor says it's going to be a thing of the past as of tomorrow, so...
17:54Nervous?
17:55Uh, yeah.
17:57A little.
17:59Well, I'm sure you're in good hands.
18:02Thanks.
18:06Hey, maybe when we're both back on our feet, so to speak,
18:09we can, um, grab a coffee or something.
18:14Like a date?
18:15Yeah.
18:17And then we go on another date?
18:20And another?
18:22And then what?
18:24Marriage?
18:25Kids?
18:26We spend the next 50 years telling everybody our meet-cute story, how we shared a surgical
18:31room in a hospital?
18:32It would be a cute story.
18:35Okay, but here's the problem with that.
18:39After I finish my PhD, I'm headed to Brazil for a WHO-sponsored research position.
18:45From there, it's back to the States and the UN, before I make my run at my dream job, which
18:50I have had my eye on for years, at NIH.
18:53That's a lot of acronyms.
18:54Marriage is not in the foreseeable future for me, and as unpopular as it is for some women
19:01to admit, I'm not even sure I want to have kids.
19:07So what you're saying is...
19:09That I'm not going to let my life plan get derailed by the hot guy in the hospital bed
19:14who put a blanket on my feet.
19:16So, thank you.
19:18But if you could just maybe go away now, please.
19:37I'll get you some cake.
19:39Be right back.
19:57Come here.
20:15How long have I been out?
20:19Five minutes?
20:21Five hours.
20:28Can I have some more water?
20:35Thanks.
20:45Xavier.
20:47My name is Xavier.
20:49We understand English.
20:52All right.
20:53Of course you do.
20:54What's your name?
20:56I'm Daniel.
20:57It's nice to meet you, Daniel.
20:59These are my friends.
21:01And that's my little sister.
21:05They don't talk much.
21:09Now I have my bag back.
21:11It's got my books and pictures in it.
21:14They're important to me.
21:15I need the things in my bag.
21:16Without the things in my bag, I won't be able to get to where I'm going.
21:42Look, there's a map of the southeast.
21:45I was flying to Atlanta, Georgia.
21:49There's a radio tower at these coordinates that I'm trying to get to.
21:52And when my plane went down, I think I was pretty close to the city.
21:55Do you guys, do you know where we are?
22:08Arkansas?
22:10You sure?
22:18What do you got there?
22:20Can I see?
22:24I'm their dad.
22:26That's my daughter Presley and my son James.
22:36She wants to know if they're dead.
22:40No.
22:42They're very much alive.
22:45Lost?
22:46No, they're back where I came from.
22:50I left them there.
22:52Safe?
22:54Yes.
22:58How did you guys get here?
23:00We were on the same travel team together.
23:03Except for my little sister.
23:06We went to a tournament on a bus.
23:11That was the day it happened.
23:13And what about your coaches and your families?
23:18They're all gone now.
23:39Hey, um, this was my son's favorite.
23:43I could read it to you.
23:45Would you like that?
24:03He wants to know if he could have your jacket when you're dead.
24:10Okay.
24:13Maybe no luck.
24:20You said everything went well.
24:21You said it was successful.
24:22It did go well.
24:23This complication is called perioperative visual loss.
24:26It's extremely rare.
24:28It could take hours or as much as a few days for your eyesight to return.
24:32But it will come back, right?
24:35You're young.
24:36You're healthy.
24:37Let's just take it one step at a time, okay?
24:40I'm going to see you in the morning.
24:41Try and get some rest.
24:55You want to talk?
24:59I'm going to see you in the morning.
25:24And when I find my wife, I'm going to bring her back to Colorado to our kids.
25:30You kids can come back with us.
25:32It's a safe place.
25:33I promise you.
25:36It's normal there?
25:41I don't know what normal is anymore, Daniel.
25:44But you'll be welcome.
25:46I have to ask my friends.
25:50We like it here.
25:52Seems kind of hard.
25:54Finding food and water.
25:56Staying warm.
25:57We have other places we go.
26:05Hey, Daniel.
26:07Why does he open and close his eyes all the time?
26:23He says, when he closes his eyes, you can see his parents' faces.
26:29He does it so he won't forget what they look like.
26:43Do you know what it's about?
26:48It's the story of a little boy named James.
26:52And even after he loses his parents and his family's name to him, he still finds a way to make
27:00friends.
27:01Find people to care about.
27:03And he doesn't give up.
27:18Until he was four years old.
27:20He doesn't give up.
27:24He does it.
27:28He does it.
27:49He doesn't give up.
