Plight A Fight For Survival And Acceptance

Short filmTranscript
00:01:52The resistance and the remnants.
00:01:56The fighting was brutal.
00:02:00Cities were destroyed and millions died.
00:02:11Most people during the war didn't have much patience for special kids like me.
00:02:19Since they saw us as weak, I didn't think we'd survive.
00:02:27While everyone was freaking out and trying to save themselves, Connie found me.
00:02:40She took me to a safe place.
00:02:43She took me to a safe place, a place far away from danger.
00:02:45A place with others like me, I could finally be myself.
00:02:56Still, it's hard to believe in my abilities and being out in the middle of nowhere, it got lonely.
00:03:04That's why I'm glad I'm glad I had my brothers.
00:03:06That's why I'm glad I have my brothers, Peter, Bart, and James.
00:03:08Peter, Bart, and James.
00:03:11That's my brother Peter.
00:03:13He always has a plan.
00:03:15Connie calls him stoic, but I just call him Peter.
00:03:19There's James. I love him to death, but he's got a bit of an anger problem. But no matter
00:03:25how much he huffs and puffs, I know he loves us.
00:03:29And that's my best buddy Bart. His brother actually fought in the resistance. I know
00:03:34if he ever gets a chance, he's gonna fight the revenants too. I'm not much of a fighter,
00:03:40so I'm glad we have Bart on our side. And that's me, Russell. I'm a bit of a handyman,
00:03:45if I do say so myself. I keep everyone connected and I hope one day to find my muse, Sarah.
00:03:53She used
00:03:54to take care of me before I met Connie, but I'll see her soon enough. I know it.
00:03:58Ah! Damn it!
00:04:00Connie brought us to the middle of nowhere, away from the violence.
00:04:05Russell, I told you to quit messing with that stuff.
00:04:08We didn't have to worry about who was a remnant soldier or resistance fighter.
00:04:12Careful, Russell. You don't want it to get infected.
00:04:16Connie took real good care of us, but that was before she got sick.
00:04:33Thank you, my son.
00:04:38Bart, go to the drawer. There's an old knapsack in there.
00:04:41Okay.
00:04:43Connie, are you going to be alright?
00:04:46Of course, Russell. I'll be fine.
00:04:52There's a book handed to me.
00:04:55Oh. Somewhere inside is a postcard. I think it's toward the back. You see? There.
00:05:10New Haven?
00:05:14It's a new city, James. I need you to go on an adventure for me.
00:05:26The directions are on the back. My sister, Ronnie, is in charge at the city. Tell her I sent you.
00:05:34She'll know what to do.
00:05:36Why don't you just send Peter?
00:05:40It will require all of you to carry the supplies we need. You've seen the cupboards. They're practically bare.
00:05:52Peter, give this to my sister. It's a list of essentials.
00:05:59It must remain sealed. I promise, Mom.
00:06:13What's this for?
00:06:14Oh. My mother gave these to my sister and me when we were young. Please make sure Ronnie gets it.
00:06:27You're all going to have to work together to get what we need to survive.
00:06:34If you fight among yourselves, you will fail. Only pack what you need.
00:06:44Remember, boys, you are so special. If anyone can do this, it's you.
00:06:55The resistance should be done building the city by now. Follow the desert flats east and make sure to keep
00:07:05the letters safe at all costs.
00:07:07Shoot! I forgot the letter.
00:07:17You must walk further than you've ever gone before.
00:07:23The road will be long and hard, but you've grown up so much.
00:07:30Rely on Peter. He knows the way.
00:07:36At the flat's end, you'll see the river. Follow it east until you've come across the railroad tracks.
00:07:43The tracks stop at the pinnacles. You'll see giant rocks that shoot out of the earth and reach for the
00:07:50heavens. Use them as cover to not go around.
00:07:55The remnants scour the area looking for survivors. And just beyond, you'll see the lights of New Heaven.
00:08:13We got one. We got one. We got one. Russell. We got one. Come on.
00:08:34No, we can't. It's hurt. It's dying.
00:08:37Get out of the way, Russell. Better it than us.
00:08:39You wouldn't want someone to eat you. You're acting like this is the first time you've eaten meat.
00:08:44It's scared. Look at it.
00:08:46We're scared too, Russell. Scare of dying out here.
00:08:49It's been at least two days since our last meal. Maybe we can do some sort of ritual to save
00:08:54the creature for its sacrifice.
00:09:00James? Russell, stop. It's settled. Three to one.
00:09:09Russell, calm down. Well, at least we won't go hungry tonight.
00:09:14Yeah, we got lucky. I was obviously hungry too.
00:09:26Russell, Russell.
00:09:39You understand how important it is to have enough food to continue the journey and to give Connie the medicine
00:09:46she needs, right?
00:09:47Yeah. But the poor bunny never did anything to us.
00:09:53You're right. It did nothing to us. But it did something for us. It helped us survive.
00:10:03Maybe you're right. He died so we can live. I hope we remember the bunny.
00:10:11We will, Russell. We will.
00:10:34I told Connie I'd go on an adventure, not become savage.
00:10:41I do eat meat. I've just never eaten a bunny before.
00:10:45It just feels so... wrong.
00:11:06It's not too bad. I just wish I had some steak sauce.
00:11:09You know what will be great after this? A bar of dark chocolate.
00:11:16Or a bag of sweet salty potato chips.
00:11:39I lose thousands of muttered."
00:12:07Yes, I did not.
00:12:07Buzzo! Stop!
00:12:10These are night-shaped pods!
00:12:11These will kill you!
00:12:14Spam!
00:12:17You didn't swallow it, did you?
00:12:19I thought they were berries.
00:12:23What's the worst that could happen?
00:12:27Excuse me.
00:12:38Guy's been out in the middle of nowhere for five years and doesn't know the difference between nightshade and wild
00:12:43berries.
00:12:44I can hear you!
00:12:47Guys, he's gotta be hungry.
00:12:52That was horrible!
00:12:56Here.
00:12:57Thanks.
00:13:02It tricked me!
00:13:03In this situation, Connie would have said things aren't always what they seem.
00:13:12For the rabbit, Russell.
00:13:26For the bunny.
00:13:36Sometimes I feel like the laughing stock of the group.
00:13:39Always getting into trouble.
00:13:42But it's James who I'm really worried about.
00:13:46He's a bit of a mystery to me.
00:13:48He doesn't talk about his past much.
00:13:52He and Pierre always fought back home.
00:13:55And now that we're alone in the desert,
00:13:58it's getting worse.
00:14:11I still do yeast.
00:14:14Yeast is good.
00:14:29So, we go...
00:14:33The...
00:14:35Well...
00:14:35It's twisted.
00:14:37Maybe we should have gone the other way.
00:14:39And walk aimlessly to nowhere?
00:14:41God, you're thick sometimes.
00:14:43Everything gets twisted in war.
00:14:45We just have to pull our heads together and think.
00:14:50All right.
00:14:51Let's think.
00:14:52You've done enough thinking.
00:14:53You're the one who got us lost.
00:14:55I knew we shouldn't have listened to you.
00:14:57Look at this sign, James.
00:14:58Even Bart's compass is stopped.
00:15:02Uh...
00:15:06That's west.
00:15:07We go west.
00:15:08It's our best bet.
00:15:09What's it say? The other way?
00:15:11What did we say about you not thinking?
00:15:14Are you gonna be like this the whole trip?
00:15:15Yeah, James.
00:15:16You gonna be this way the whole trip?
00:15:20That's east.
00:15:21Is east good?
00:15:23East is good.
00:15:24How do you know?
00:15:25Listen to me for a change.
00:15:27Maybe if you had, we wouldn't be lost.
00:15:30Remember what Connie said?
00:15:32If we fight amongst ourselves, we've already lost.
00:15:35Ah.
00:15:45Ah.
00:15:49Ah!
00:16:16ORGAN PLAYS
00:16:36This sucks. It's not even enough for a rat.
00:16:40James is unsatisfied. Shocking.
00:16:45When we get to New Haven, I'm going to open a bakery with Sarah.
00:16:51Sourdough, rye, wheat, cookies, sour cream cakes, you name it.
00:16:57You really love her, don't you?
00:17:00Yeah. It's more than love, though.
00:17:03She was the best staff member at my home. Honorary, even.
00:17:07After every shower, I would pull the curtain back and burst out with a shampoo ball as my microphone and
00:17:15sing,
00:17:15Do you love me?
00:17:19I was looking in the mirror, but I was saying to her.
00:17:25She combed my wet hair afterwards, but I just couldn't work up the courage to sing to her.
00:17:32I would sit at the edge of my bed, and she'd smile at me.
00:17:37And I'd smile back at her.
00:17:41She made me feel handsome.
00:17:47James, what do you want to do when we get to the city?
00:17:53I just want a real home.
00:17:55I can't stop thinking about the hospital before I met Connie.
00:18:00How they treated me.
00:18:05They used to spray me with a hose when they thought I needed a shower.
00:18:09Then just toss baby powder all over me.
00:18:13They saw me as an animal.
00:18:15And the worse they treated me, the worse I got.
00:18:23I couldn't control myself.
00:18:26I would scratch the walls so hard it would break my fingernails.
00:18:30All I had was my anger.
00:18:32They used to put me alone in a room for hours.
00:18:36I was used to being alone, but this was different.
00:18:46You're not alone anymore, James.
00:18:52That's when Connie came.
00:18:54One day, the door opened, and there she was.
00:18:59She was so kind.
00:19:06What about you, Bart?
00:19:08What are you going to do?
00:19:12Um, I guess I want to be a part of the resistance like my brother.
00:19:19When did you last see him?
00:19:23I didn't know it was going to be the last time.
00:19:26He got an emergency call saying that the remnants had breached the city walls and just ran out of the
00:19:32house.
00:19:34I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye.
00:19:38But he looked back at me for a second, and he smiled and saluted me.
00:19:44I put my hand on the window, and as he lifted his, for a moment there, I felt his strength,
00:19:51and what it must feel like to be a true soldier.
00:19:57Two days later, Connie showed up.
00:20:03I don't know if he's dead or alive out there, but I know damn well I want to be as
00:20:08strong as he is.
00:20:14What about you, Peter?
00:20:16Give food and medicine for Connie.
00:20:18Bring it back to the farmhouse.
00:20:23Okay.
00:20:24Let's get some sleep.
00:20:27Let's get some sleep.
00:20:46Let's get some sleep.
00:20:48All right.
00:20:51Go on.
00:21:00Come on, Sleeping Beauty.
00:21:02It's time to move.
00:21:14Where's my canteen?
00:21:17And my Walkman.
00:21:19Has anyone seen it?
00:21:20It's not my job to babysit your stuff, Russell.
00:21:25Retrace your steps.
00:21:26When was the last time you saw it?
00:21:28Yesterday.
00:21:30I remember drinking from it last night.
00:21:32Do you remember you put it back in your bag?
00:21:37Here, just take a sip out of mine.
00:21:41Music.
00:21:42You're lucky Bart's such a softie.
00:21:44I'd make you go a few more hours without water.
00:21:47Teach you a lesson.
00:21:48That's enough.
00:21:49You know he can't help it.
00:21:50He has special needs.
00:21:52So stop acting like such a jerk.
00:21:53Special?
00:21:55We're all special.
00:21:56That's all Connie ever told us.
00:21:58Well, we're obviously not special enough.
00:22:01Because if we allow him to be a scatterbrain, we're going to die in a desert.
00:22:06A nasty, stinking, ugly piece of...
00:22:09That's enough, James.
00:22:11What's wrong with you, man?
00:22:14Why do you coddle him so much?
00:22:18Sorry, Russell.
00:22:20Hope you find your Laserdisc player.
00:22:23Thanks, James.
00:22:25Where are you going?
00:22:30Or we're all running out of water anyway.
00:22:33We're going ahead to find a new source soon or none of us will have any.
00:22:44What is it, Peter?
00:22:46Let me see.
00:22:48Just wait already.
00:22:50Hey, what's gotten into you, boss?
00:23:00I think there's water up ahead.
00:23:18Follow the desert flats east until you come across a river.
00:23:24The journey will be long and hard, but you can make it.
00:23:27I believe in you.
00:23:47Well, we made it.
00:23:49It looks so much bigger from a distance.
00:23:52Can we drink it?
00:23:53We could boil it, but it looks too murky.
00:23:57Maybe there's fish.
00:23:59It's worth a shot.
00:24:01All right, guys.
00:24:02Split up.
00:24:02See if you can find something to fish with.
00:24:09Connie taught us a lot of skills to help us survive.
00:24:13How to catch animals.
00:24:16How to make a fire or a fishing pole from scratch.
00:24:22If she was here, she'd be proud to see us working together.
00:24:52Do you really think we'll catch anything?
00:24:54A wise woman once told me anything's possible.
00:24:58What wise woman?
00:24:59What other women do you know, Russell?
00:25:03Sarah told you that part?
00:25:06Oh, gosh.
00:25:13Very helpful.
00:25:15Now what do we do?
00:25:16There's nothing around here.
00:25:17Nothing.
00:25:18I'm so sick of this.
00:25:20James, calm down.
00:25:21You're acting like a child.
00:25:22Don't call me a child.
00:25:24Don't tell me to calm down.
00:25:26You're not my boss.
00:25:27You're not Connie.
00:25:29You're not anything to me.
00:25:36Nothing?
00:25:37You're all right.
00:25:39I'm just your best hope of getting out of here alive.
00:25:42Oh.
00:25:45Oh.
00:25:47His temper is getting worse.
00:25:51Okay, let's set up camp for today and scout for food in the morning.
00:25:54There has to be something.
00:26:08Last time I checked, Peter said we were more than halfway there.
00:26:13Honestly, it's been kind of nice to be on the open road with my brothers.
00:26:18The smell of fresh air.
00:26:20Sun on our backs.
00:26:22Wind in our hair.
00:26:24James in our ear.
00:26:26Although he did just find us our next meal.
00:26:30Better than that rabbit.
00:26:32Better together.
00:26:34That's something Connie would say.
00:26:36I agree.
00:26:38Good find James.
00:26:39Just keeping my eyes open.
00:26:41Like you said.
00:26:43Well, we all need to keep doing that.
00:26:44We've been lucky so far.
00:26:46Let's not waste any more time.
00:26:48Like you always say.
00:26:50Okay.
00:27:09Whoa.
00:27:10Sarah!
00:27:12Looks like she's trying to break up with you, Russell.
00:27:16Don't worry.
00:27:17When we reunite, I'll make sure she knows you were always mean to me.
00:27:22Sure.
00:27:22Assuming she recognizes you.
00:27:25Come on, James.
00:27:26You know we all have someone to get back to.
00:27:29Let's just hope we get back.
00:27:31At this point, I'm starting to think we'll never see anyone we know again.
00:27:35I will see Sarah again.
00:27:37She's the only woman I've ever loved.
00:27:38You think after so long you'll be done waiting?
00:27:41I could go longer.
00:27:57Whoa.
00:28:03Come on.
00:28:04We have to go around.
00:28:11Make sure to pace yourselves.
00:28:13New Haven is many miles away.
00:28:17Ration your food and use the land like I taught you.
00:28:21There will be many dangers.
00:28:24Watch out for each other.
00:28:27Together, you can do anything.
00:28:42Guys, I gotta take a quick leak.
00:28:44Be back in a second.
00:28:49Let's meet you.
00:28:52Oof.
00:28:53Oof.
00:29:00Do you ever wonder if Peter really knows what he's doing?
00:29:04He keeps us moving.
00:29:06It's not easy.
00:29:07Especially with your attitude, James.
00:29:10Oof.
00:29:11It just feels like he's playing a role sometimes.
00:29:14Like he thinks he's our savior or something.
00:29:16He was right the last time.
00:29:18Look, we all have our moments.
00:29:21He's just trying his best, like the rest of us.
00:29:24You're trying your best, right, James?
00:29:27What was that?
00:29:34Peter, hold on!
00:29:40We got a game out.
00:29:42You think?
00:29:43Let's try to pry it open.
00:29:45James, grab that side.
00:29:46And Russell, you hold it down.
00:30:08Come on, come on, come on, come on!
00:30:18Come on, come on, come on!
00:30:38I didn't see it.
00:30:39It was hidden behind the bush.
00:30:41Here, Peter. Hold still.
00:30:51This is what Connie wanted, right, Bart?
00:30:54Us working together?
00:30:56Are you kidding me?
00:30:57I don't think this is what she had in mind.
00:31:07Peter, maybe we should rest.
00:31:10No.
00:31:10No. We can't waste time.
00:31:13Connie's waiting.
00:31:16Take it easy.
00:31:19Come on. Come on.
00:31:24Thanks, guys.
00:31:33We got you, Peter.
00:31:36Let's keep moving.
00:31:37Grab my bag.
00:31:38All right.
00:31:39Come on.
00:31:40Come on.
00:32:07I hope Connie isn't mad
00:32:09that I didn't do my chores before we left.
00:32:13You'd never do your chores, Russell.
00:32:15Yeah, but it's the thought that counts.
00:32:23Hey, Peter, what's in the letter?
00:32:25There might be something in there that could help us.
00:32:27She told him not to, James.
00:32:29I get it, but that was before our fearless leader
00:32:33got a bum leg.
00:32:34If there's something that can help us,
00:32:37I don't know why we aren't using it.
00:32:39She told me not to,
00:32:41and I keep my worry.
00:32:44But it makes no sense.
00:33:15I'm not going to be honest.
00:33:15I don't know.
00:33:47Russell, where are the dark binoculars?
00:33:51I thought you had them.
00:33:54They're gone!
00:33:55You keep losing our crap.
00:33:58Maybe you shouldn't trust the guy who's lovesick.
00:34:02Russ, do you honestly think that you'll ever see Sarah again?
00:34:13It's okay, man.
00:34:14Just try to keep a closer eye on your stuff next time.
00:34:17Maybe sleep within next to you like the rest of us do.
00:34:21Thanks, Bart.
00:34:29Peter!
00:34:30Wait for us!
00:34:34Back home, I knew what to expect.
00:34:37But out here, I just feel lost.
00:34:56Guys!
00:34:59Look!
00:35:00Bye!
00:35:03Bye!
00:35:04Bye!
00:36:36Well, it says here that the tracks will lead to the Pentacles and the city beyond.
00:36:41It's so empty out here.
00:36:43And we're already running out of food and water again.
00:37:13At least you found the railcars.
00:37:15We know we're on the right path.
00:37:17All we can do right now is follow the railroad tracks.
00:37:21We don't have any other choice.
00:37:23We don't have any other choice.
00:37:28We don't have any other choice.
00:37:55All those stars, they make me feel so small.
00:38:01We are, Russell.
00:38:04What did Connor used to say to us?
00:38:07Each star is a story waiting to be told?
00:38:12That one's the Big Dipper.
00:38:13My dad showed me how to find it when I was seven.
00:38:17I never really looked up much after he died.
00:38:20Sometimes you just need to be out in the wild to really see clearly.
00:38:28Connie told me to protect you all.
00:38:31Seems like an impossible task.
00:38:33Last thing she told me was to make sure you all don't walk off a cliff.
00:38:38Bart.
00:38:39Ever the peacemaker.
00:38:49Well, we're not getting any sleep tonight.
00:38:53Stay close.
00:38:54They won't come near the fire.
00:38:56Will they be out here all night?
00:38:58They certainly weren't here before.
00:39:00Sounds familiar.
00:39:02One day it's here.
00:39:03One day it's gone.
00:39:05Like the war.
00:39:06Exactly, Russell.
00:39:07And we're living in the part where it's all gone.
00:39:23Russell!
00:39:23The lighter!
00:39:24I didn't take it.
00:39:25I put it on my back.
00:39:26Right here.
00:39:28Guys, we don't need this right now.
00:39:30Don't you have a spine, Bart?
00:39:32Aren't you upset at him?
00:39:33How are we going to make a fire?
00:39:36Why do you always blame me?
00:39:37I didn't take it.
00:39:39It's not me.
00:39:40Don't blame me.
00:39:41It's not me.
00:39:43We'll figure something out.
00:39:49Come look at this.
00:39:56We're being followed.
00:40:01So, it wasn't me?
00:40:04No.
00:40:05I'm sorry, Russell.
00:40:07You're in the clear, bud.
00:40:08Well, at least we know it's just one person.
00:40:10They're picking off our stuff one by one.
00:40:13If there was more of them, then why don't they just kill us in our sleep?
00:40:17We're going to die in our sleep?
00:40:19You're first, Russell.
00:40:20One person with a weapon could easily kill us all.
00:40:23Well, it would have to be a gun.
00:40:25And we're still here.
00:40:32He's scavenging.
00:40:36Okay, put everything inside your packs.
00:40:38No more clipping.
00:40:39We need to find a safer place to set up camp.
00:40:44I was so relieved it wasn't me.
00:40:47For a moment there, they had me second-guessing myself.
00:40:50Maybe now they'll trust me.
00:40:53The bad news is someone took our lighter.
00:40:56But the good news is...
00:40:58Bart's brother taught him how to survive anything.
00:41:01When my brother came back from basic training...
00:41:04He taught me how to build this.
00:41:06It's going to make fire.
00:41:09Hopefully.
00:41:14There goes nothing.
00:41:18Come on, give us fire, you weird tiny bow and arrow-themed machine.
00:41:29Come on.
00:41:31Give us fire already.
00:41:38Come on.
00:41:44Ah, no fire.
00:41:46We have to have a fire.
00:41:49Or we die, Russell.
00:41:51Let me do it.
00:42:01Uh, I don't think you're doing it right.
00:42:06Oh, stupid thing doesn't work.
00:42:08Your brother's a dumbass.
00:42:10Okay, what the heck, man?
00:42:12Man, it worked when my brother did it.
00:42:20Wait a minute.
00:42:27Of course.
00:42:28Quick, everyone.
00:42:30Give me all the link you have in your pockets.
00:42:32Okay.
00:42:45Here we go.
00:42:54You got this.
00:42:58Is it working?
00:42:59It's doing to work.
00:43:00It's working.
00:43:01It's working.
00:43:03You did it.
00:43:03You did it.
00:43:04Good job, bud.
00:43:08You did it.
00:43:09Yes.
00:43:33Where is he?
00:43:41Come on, guys.
00:43:42Get up.
00:43:43We can't waste any more time.
00:43:45How are we always wasting time?
00:43:47We just woke up.
00:43:50I'm not doing the late night shift again.
00:43:55James!
00:43:56Quit messing around, man!
00:43:59James!
00:44:02Where are you?
00:44:07Reporting for duty.
00:44:08Where have you been?
00:44:09Do you see anything from watch last night?
00:44:11Just Russell mumbling in his sleep for a Twinkie.
00:44:17I just needed some space.
00:44:20He showed up for a shift last night, Peter.
00:44:24Okay.
00:44:25Go through your bags and make sure you have everything.
00:44:27And that goes for you, too, James.
00:44:30Everything's here.
00:44:31I checked.
00:44:34Whatever, man.
00:44:34See if I care.
00:44:36Yeah.
00:45:10Where the railroad tracks end, you'll find giant rocks that sprout from the earth and reach towards the heavens.
00:45:18The pinnacles.
00:45:20You'll know them when you see them.
00:45:23The mountain paths are treacherous.
00:45:25Watch your step.
00:45:26Stay hidden.
00:45:27And no matter what, don't get caught.
00:45:38There they are.
00:45:40Jeez, they look like skyscrapers.
00:45:44Well, at least we're almost there.
00:45:47You sure we can't just go home?
00:45:49Nope.
00:45:51Come on, man. At least we're almost there. Let's go.
00:46:55My destination is unknown.
00:47:00My destination is unknown.
00:47:15Keep moving on.
00:47:29Keep moving on.
00:47:39I'm just saying, man. Sometimes a wink is just a wink.
00:47:42Yeah, but she did it twice.
00:47:48Twice?
00:47:50Show us.
00:47:51Show us how she did it, Russell.
00:47:53All right.
00:47:59That's a blink, Russell.
00:48:01No, it was a double wink,
00:48:03and Sarah totally gave me one.
00:48:07Thanks, Russell.
00:48:08I needed that.
00:48:15Maybe you should get that looked at.
00:48:18Yeah, by who?
00:48:19Dude, you okay?
00:48:20All right.
00:48:26Dad, there you go.
00:48:28It's getting better.
00:48:29Don't worry about me.
00:48:41Now I get why Connie put Peter in charge.
00:48:45He can get his leg caught in a bear trap and still walk.
00:48:50Come to think of it, that's probably why Connie said we were differently abled.
00:48:54It's kind of like a superpower.
00:48:57I know my superpower is bringing people together.
00:49:01Guys, look!
00:49:13Do you think people come here to make wishes or pray?
00:49:16Maybe they came here looking for answers.
00:49:20Maybe make a wish to get out of here alive.
00:49:22It couldn't hurt.
00:49:24That's it!
00:49:26We should all make a wish.
00:49:27You can wish for a new home, James.
00:49:29You can wish to be as strong as your brother, Bart.
00:49:31And you can wish to save Connie, Peter.
00:49:34I don't need to wish.
00:49:36I know.
00:49:38But it couldn't hurt, right?
00:49:40Bye.
00:49:57Wow.
00:49:58Oh, my God.
00:50:33You know, Sarah had this thing about heights.
00:50:37She was really scared of them.
00:50:40Is there a single thing you haven't tied back to Sarah?
00:50:43Next you're going to tell us Sarah had an opinion on mountain goats.
00:50:47Whoa!
00:50:54Guys!
00:50:55I got you.
00:50:58Help me, Peter.
00:51:02Don't let go.
00:51:04I got you.
00:51:06I can't hold on to you guys much longer.
00:51:14Don't let me die.
00:51:16Die!
00:51:22Grab my hand.
00:51:28Lie.
00:51:36That was way too close.
00:51:41Guys, where's our stuff?
00:51:45Uh, of all the bags.
00:51:55Russell, give it here.
00:51:58Yeah, here.
00:52:03What did you bring?
00:52:05You never know what you're going to need on an adventure.
00:52:14What the heck is this?
00:52:17Great.
00:52:18We're definitely going to need that.
00:52:21Maybe there's another way to get our stuff.
00:52:24Look, there's a path right there.
00:52:27All right.
00:52:44I took you away from the chaos to help you survive.
00:52:48But now, we need help.
00:52:53It's been five years.
00:52:55The Resistance should be done building the city by now.
00:53:00Use the pinnacles as cover.
00:53:03The Remnants scour the area looking for survivors.
00:53:08Stick together and move only when it's clear.
00:53:54Look, over there.
00:53:57Get down.
00:54:08Turn on.
00:54:17What, what, what...
00:54:21Not now.
00:54:28You're still waiting for normalcy.
00:54:29No, I don't know.
00:54:31Get calm.
00:54:31Do they have new diapers?
00:54:31No, You're dead.
00:54:32No, You're dead.
00:54:32I don't know.
00:55:09Hey guys, look.
00:55:33Are you guys seeing this?
00:55:36Jackpot.
00:55:38Are those?
00:55:52Of course these survived the war.
00:55:55I wonder who left these or if they're coming back to get it.
00:56:00Let's pack up and take everything we need.
00:56:02We take wherever we can carry.
00:56:03Connie's counting on us.
00:56:25Let's pack up and take everything we need.
00:56:42Uh, Peter?
00:56:44Yeah?
00:56:54What are you doing?
00:56:55Making a fire.
00:56:57We have everything we need.
00:56:59We could just stay here.
00:57:01This isn't a hotel stop.
00:57:03We can't stay here.
00:57:04Connie needs us.
00:57:06You ever think that maybe Connie is already gone?
00:57:09Maybe we're risking our lives for nothing.
00:57:13Of course she's alive.
00:57:14That's why we're doing this.
00:57:15Come on, James.
00:57:16The supplies will run out eventually.
00:57:19Then what will we do?
00:57:20We already made it to the pentacles.
00:57:22We're practically almost there.
00:57:25Why quit now?
00:57:26And what's at the city?
00:57:28More scavengers on doom buggies?
00:57:30Uh-uh.
00:57:31I'm staying.
00:57:32You can't order me around anymore.
00:57:33It's not about you!
00:57:35It's bigger than you!
00:57:36It's about the resistance!
00:57:39We can't move it!
00:57:39Guys, do not get lost!
00:57:40Let go!
00:57:43Get the hell off me!
00:57:49Pathetic.
00:57:51Maybe you are better off alone.
00:57:53Peter?
00:57:55You okay?
00:57:57I'm fine.
00:57:59James?
00:58:00Stop!
00:58:01Peter!
00:58:05You want to kill me, James?
00:58:21We've got a mission, James.
00:58:23It's not about you.
00:58:26We can't just leave him here, can we?
00:58:37Peter, he's one of us.
00:58:39He knows where to find us.
00:58:41He'll be fine.
00:58:42Let him catch up.
00:58:43We keep moving, even if it kills us!
00:58:54I'm so sorry to have to leave you here, James.
00:59:11Leaving James behind was one of the horrorst things I've ever had to do.
00:59:16Leaving the farmhouse meant saving Connie, but leaving James feels like I lost a brother.
00:59:23I bet he just needs to cool off again.
00:59:27If he hurries, he can catch up.
00:59:32Oh my god.
00:59:34Oh my god.
00:59:36It looks like they're survivors.
00:59:40I made it.
00:59:41No way!
00:59:42Guys, look!
00:59:44New Haven!
00:59:45Yes!
00:59:48I can't believe it!
00:59:50Yes!
00:59:51Yes!
00:59:52Yes!
00:59:52Yes!
00:59:53Yes!
00:59:54this stadium, baby, you're going to escape every game of Connie.
00:59:56Ahh!
01:00:11Oh, I'm so sorry!
01:00:14That's sixfold.
01:00:18I want to use these two-class hiets.
01:00:19Were you able to cube on Jahre?
01:00:24February 4th, 1908. December 30th, 1908? How's that possible?
01:00:37It was a baby, Russell. Life can be short.
01:00:43Hey, look at this one.
01:00:48Mark, the Resistance. Just like your brother.
01:00:52Colonel Topper was one of the leaders of the Resistance. My brother said he was fearless.
01:01:00We aren't alone. We better keep moving.
01:01:10All these people from different times, each with their own story, their own life, and their own death.
01:01:19Just like the stars.
01:01:49It's the junkyard.
01:01:51We're getting close.
01:01:57This section has good cover.
01:02:00This is what we're staying at camp tonight.
01:02:02Everyone grab wherever you can.
01:02:03Blinkets, tools, anything that might help.
01:02:06Weapons, too?
01:02:07Those as well.
01:02:08Those as well.
01:02:35These are what we're fishing here.
01:03:02This kind of reminds me of when we used to gather around to watch old movies with Connie.
01:03:07Back to the Future. That was my favorite.
01:03:11Mine was the Outsiders. I knew Connie loved the Dead Poets Society.
01:03:16The Wizard of Oz for me. You're right, Bart. This does feel like movie night. Everything except for James.
01:03:34You guys remember the plan? We need to be ready. I'll take the first watch.
01:03:53You're all going to have to work together to get what we need to survive.
01:03:59Peter will keep you safe on the path.
01:04:02It's always something with you. It's not about you. It's bigger than you.
01:04:08Maybe you are better off alone.
01:04:13You can't order me around anymore. You're not my boss. You're not Connie. You're not anything to me.
01:04:25HelloFFIRT
01:04:26What the fuck is she who needs to go to?
01:05:09Who are you?
01:05:12Peter!
01:05:18What the heck do you want from us?
01:06:07Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:06:13Peter, I'm scared.
01:06:17Don't talk.
01:06:18You're going to be okay.
01:06:20I don't want to be alone.
01:06:23James, no.
01:06:24Come on.
01:06:25Russell, Art, I'm always alone.
01:06:34You're never alone.
01:06:36And you're going to be okay.
01:06:43Let's go.
01:07:05Sayí‹€, James, you've always kept me in check.
01:07:09I know that now that my head got too big.
01:07:15I should have listened to you instead of trying to control you.
01:07:18I didn't know how to tell you how much did I care.
01:07:23I hope you find peace, brother.
01:07:27None of us would have been here without you.
01:07:32You were willing to die just to save us.
01:07:35And you did just that.
01:07:38Thank you, James.
01:07:41Yeah, like Bart said, thanks for saving us.
01:07:45Connie will be proud.
01:07:48I'll miss you.
01:07:57Should we bury him too?
01:08:01I mean, yeah, he killed James.
01:08:03But it just feels wrong to leave him there.
01:08:07So how does he know that?
01:08:37Like Bart said, everything gets twisted in war.
01:08:42He makes us do crazy things, even when that's not who we really are.
01:08:48I hope he finds peace, too.
01:09:10James' death made me realize just how serious this adventure really is.
01:09:15I'm determined now more than ever to find Seraph and save Connie.
01:09:24But now that we're in the heart of the city, my stomach is all tied in knots.
01:09:30The city isn't what we thought it would be.
01:09:33There could be remnants, and no one we've found this journey has been friendly.
01:10:14Is this it?
01:10:15It looks so much better on the postcard.
01:10:18We need to find Connie's sister.
01:10:20She has to be here.
01:10:25After you.
01:10:38Ronny!
01:10:39Quiet!
01:10:40Do you want to draw more attention to us?
01:10:43These houses remind me of the one Sarah lived at.
01:10:46I mean, if it wasn't all burnt out and stuff.
01:10:49When I find her, I'm going to ask her to get married.
01:10:52Maybe have her own home together one day.
01:10:54I was going to invite James to live with us, but...
01:11:01Russell, it's been five years since you've seen her.
01:11:05Everything has changed.
01:11:07You're right.
01:11:08I just...
01:11:10It's just so hard to say goodbye.
01:11:12Goodbye.
01:11:14Goodbye.
01:11:26Goodbye.
01:11:28Goodbye.
01:11:28Goodbye.
01:11:50Sarah?
01:12:06I hope I find that baby.
01:12:12Russell, I'm so sorry.
01:12:44Let's keep moving.
01:12:46Coming is counting on us.
01:12:52The thought of Sarah kept me going.
01:12:55She was a light in this dark world.
01:12:57A world that seems determined to destroy anything beautiful.
01:13:34Okay, we approach from the front. Stay close.
01:13:37Wait, Peter. There could be more remnants or more traps.
01:13:42Maybe we should split up. Two of us in the back and one of us up in the front.
01:13:46Okay. Russell, you're with me.
01:13:49Well, what?
01:14:01Wow.
01:14:04Wow.
01:14:26Russell, look at the door. Watch your step.
01:14:44What did I say?
01:14:46Come on.
01:15:12You scared me to death.
01:15:13There's no one here.
01:15:18Resistance or remnants.
01:15:23Aunt Ronnie?
01:15:25What?
01:15:27Peter?
01:15:29Yes!
01:15:31We made it!
01:15:35We made it!
01:15:50You're Ghani's boys, aren't you?
01:15:56Mom wanted me to give you this.
01:15:59She got sick a few winters back.
01:16:01She never got over it.
01:16:05You walked all the way here?
01:16:09There was one more of us.
01:16:13James.
01:16:16He saved us.
01:16:18He sacrificed himself so we could be here.
01:16:22I'm so sorry.
01:16:24We're here to help, but...
01:16:28What happened to the city?
01:16:34We couldn't build our defenses fast enough.
01:16:38So we were overrun.
01:16:41But they can't beat us that easily.
01:16:45Well, my brother was part of the Resistance.
01:16:48His name was Private Ronald Maxwell.
01:16:50Do any of you know if he's still around?
01:16:54Oh, I couldn't tell you, my boy.
01:16:57Many were lost when the treaty was broken.
01:17:02But we have built a new city.
01:17:0560 miles east.
01:17:07East is good.
01:17:09We learn from our mistakes.
01:17:12We built our defenses before the rest of the infrastructure.
01:17:17Seacrest is impenetrable.
01:17:18But we are low on strong men to help build schools and power grids and homes.
01:17:25If you were able to make it here alive, then we are going to need men like you.
01:17:35But what about Connie?
01:17:38We're supposed to bring her to Seacrest too.
01:17:41Aunt Ronnie.
01:17:44Bart.
01:17:46Russell.
01:17:50Connie isn't coming.
01:17:52What do you mean Connie's not coming?
01:17:54That's why we're here.
01:17:56Of course she's coming.
01:17:58Spit it out, Peter.
01:18:04Mom's gone.
01:18:09Connie's gone.
01:18:13Connie's gone.
01:18:15That can't be true.
01:18:23You liar.
01:18:26What's next?
01:18:27You're part of the remnants?
01:18:30She was alive when we left, Peter.
01:18:33How could this be possible?
01:18:38Art.
01:18:39Mom!
01:18:40Okay.
01:18:43Don't touch me.
01:18:49Don't touch me.
01:18:54Russell.
01:18:56We're leaving.
01:19:02Bart!
01:19:05Bart!
01:19:06Wait!
01:19:06What?
01:19:10You're not a leader.
01:19:11You're a liar.
01:19:13And we can't follow a damn liar.
01:19:51We would have all died there.
01:19:52We would have made it if I told you.
01:19:54I knew it.
01:19:55I saw the look in your eyes when you came back with the letter.
01:19:59Oh.
01:20:00You just said it was too hard to say goodbye.
01:20:05Come on, Russell.
01:20:08Take this.
01:20:16Bart!
01:20:17Russell!
01:20:31Boys!
01:20:33Boys!
01:20:37Please come back.
01:20:38You need to hear this.
01:20:46Dearest twin.
01:20:50These are the boys I've been taking care of for all these years.
01:20:56I have fallen ill and I will not recover.
01:21:02We are out of supplies and they need help.
01:21:08Peter is very smart and capable but needs to learn how to work with others to become the leader he
01:21:18is destined to be.
01:21:21James can be a little brash but he loves his brothers and will do anything for them.
01:21:31Bart is a good mediator.
01:21:34His persistence will help guide everyone in the resistance.
01:21:38Did she say anything about me?
01:21:44Russell is the anchor.
01:21:47His sense of humor will lift everyone's spirits and he has the biggest heart.
01:21:55Please make sure it remains tethered to this new world.
01:22:01They may take a little getting used to, but I'm sure you will fall in love with them.
01:22:07Just like I did.
01:22:10I'm so proud of having raised these boys.
01:22:16I love you all.
01:22:28There's still life to live.
01:22:31Come with me to Seacrest.
01:22:37You will be safe there.
01:22:40Well, we made it.
01:22:43It's definitely not what we expected.
01:22:46But it seems to be exactly what we needed.
01:22:49Oh!
01:22:50I forgot my back!
01:22:51Knowing that Connie and James both served the resistance until the end makes the loss hurt less.
01:22:58From now on, I won't let people tell me what I can't do.
01:23:02I know what I'm capable of.
01:23:10As long as my brothers and I are together, we can do anything.
01:23:15Russell!
01:23:19Hey!
01:23:21Are you coming?
01:23:22They're getting these strong men like us.
01:23:24Remember?
01:23:32Come on, guys.
01:23:34As hard as it was to say goodbye to Sarah,
01:23:37I'm hopeful that I'll find a new light in this dark world
01:23:41when we get to Seacrest.
01:24:13T-Seacrest
01:24:16Not as bad as you thought it would be
01:24:21Now you're stuck on a girl
01:24:27Not as bad as you want it to be
01:24:35You are the eyes of the world
01:24:42It's not as bad as you want it to be
01:24:47And now you're stuck on a girl
01:24:53It's not as bad as you want it to be
01:25:00You're so scared
01:25:04Cause how you want it
01:25:06Ain't how you thought it should be
01:25:10Well, you were not prepared
01:25:15Cause what you do, what you see
