We're Alive, Descendants, written and directed by Casey Weyland. Chapter 21, Full Steam Ahead. Part 2 of 3 And... stop. Stop, stop, stop, stop. Okay. Kill the engines. Secure the area. Got? With you. Fan out. Clear. Clear. Same over here. Nothing on the north side. Clear. Well, this is a good spot. No way Prim can see us in this valley. Where's City? You'll have to get on the top of the hill to see it. Yeah. I can barely see Prim, even from up here. It's not all lit up like he used to be. No, it's not. Hmm. Could be conserving power. I do see a few scattered lights, but nothing like it was. Closed. Yeah. No longer in business. For good. No more money coming in to pay anyone. Then again, they could have stockpile currency from other places, so... So the boar could still have animals on her payroll. Mm-hmm. Find out tomorrow. We leave before first light, right? That's the plan. How far do you think the city is from here? Well, five miles or so. At a good walking pace? May it take us an hour and change? even in all this body armor. Don't forget, a lot of these folks are still feeling the effects of the last truck. We haven't had many breaks. Well, better to move fast than get caught. And if we leave any earlier... Die. Exactly. The infected were released from the arenas. So we need to keep an extra eye out now that we're close. I'm sure everyone already knows. I'll go remind them. Better to be safe than sorry. Uh, you are? Phyllis Hester, former UA infantry. Damn, long way from home. How'd you end up here? Um, I deserted, trying to find a better life. Ended up being captured three months later by the Boers people. I've been in their camps for the last year. Some karma. You're not going to desert on us now, are you? No, sir. I learned from my mistakes. Good to know we have some soldiers with us. Thank you. I'll go let the others know and take rear watch. Sounds good. Oh, well, in that case, I'm going to try and get some shut-eye. Night. Night. Night. You, uh, want to settle in? I figure this is as good a spot as any to keep an eye on things. Oh. Okay. Hey, could you take the other end of the blanket and help me spread it out? You know, the last time we were like this, we were on a hill trying to get away from this place. Now, look at us. Same way. Just going back. Is there something wrong? Other than our obvious impending doom? Grant. What about him? L'Dot. L'Dot. L'Li... L'Li... Hey, hey, it's alright. I know what you're trying to say. You don't have to. Tell him? Honestly, I... I don't know how. And now is not the right time. Please. I will. I will. Just... We need Grant to focus in prim. When this is over, first thing, I promise. Dot. Or... I... Will. You're gonna tell him? I'm sure that'd go over real well. You know... Bad as it may seem out here... Being under these stars, with you, it's worth the danger. I'm danger. You. You're the danger? Right. You're the dangerous one out here, huh? Try. No, no. You don't have to prove anything with me again. You kicked my ass the first time in the Champion's Dorm, remember? Mm-hmm. Good. Man, even that seems so long ago now, when I first met you in Prim. Meh. Oh, not for you? Little. Well, maybe not if we count the actual days, but with all we've been through, and how many more words you can say now? Hmm. Dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot. Come on. I know those dots were on purpose. No. You forget. I'm fluent in dot. In dotology. I'm getting to know all about you. Really? Well, yeah. You know, except... There's one thing. I just wanted to know. But I'm afraid to ask. I think it'll be too much. Oh? Your name. It's not really Dot, is it? No. Can you tell me what it is? Or can I know what it is? Is that too much? Too soon? Dot, dot. Alex. Dot. Dot. Hey, it's okay. Dot. Dot. Hey, hey, it's okay. No rush. I just thought I would ask. Look, it's okay. It doesn't matter. It really doesn't. we have plenty of time and if it doesn't ever happen it doesn't happen Dot? Uh huh To me I don't give a fuck what your name is I know who you are Dot Hey, you two mind keeping it down over there? Yeah, sorry Grant That was you That was all you And you're right, you are dangerous You're gonna give away our position Well not I guess that means the only thing that we can do Is just Lay here and look at the stars Stars Yeah, I kind of wish we could just stay up here forever. Yeah, me too. Good boy. head. We're moving out in 15. Can't believe I slept at all. Wasn't Gus supposed to keep him at the stable? How did Demon get here? Got free. Follow you. If he continues to do that out there in the open desert, we'll be spotted pretty quickly. Yeah, that's what I was thinking, too. I'll have to stay behind with the trucks here. Who's not coming? Hey, Sarah and I will be here. And if you run into trouble, we'll drive the flatbeds in. Billy will be our contact on the radio should anything happen Well now you have Demon with you too How We have to tie him up For his own safety and ours There's some rope in the truck bed. I'll get it. He won't like... At this point, I don't see any other way. We need to get moving. Here you go. Good luck. Easy, Demon. Easy. Easy. Demon. Demon. Demon. Shh. Sorry, buddy. This is for your own good. It's okay. Okay. He doesn't like being tied down. He's been on his own for so long. Hey, but I'll be back. Okay? I'll be back. Easy. Hopefully that's the only wild card this morning will give us. I'll get the other Atlans ready so we can get moving. We'll meet everyone at the bottom of the ravine. Radio check. One, two. Earpiece works. But Billy, only use the radio if there's a problem. Same applies for us. You got it. I'll let Sarah know too. No like. Demon will just have to get used to it. I, no like. I don't either. He shouldn't have come. I thought he was taken care of back at the Atlas. He was? Well, not well enough. Obviously. It's not your fault. It's just a lot. On top of going back to Prim now, I have one more thing to worry about. And Westport? And you? No worry, Dot. I can't help that. I know you can take care of yourself, but... Alex, we're all set here. We gotta get moving. No worry. Okay? I'll try not to. And Demon, you too. We'll be back. Stay. Okay? Stay. We'll look after him best we can. Good luck in there. Thank you. Bye, Demon. Okay, move out. Dawn's coming up fast. No, no, no, no, no, no. Please, please, Nick. Please, don't let me go. Where am I? Thanks. I can't help. Please. Thanks, I can't see you. You have to do it. You have to do it. No, it's so... Back to you. Who is that? Who is that? Who is that? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Easy. It's okay. You're safe. You're safe. Will? Hey, take it easy, man. Just breathe. Team? Just breathe. No one else is here. It's just us in the guard tower still. Remember? Oh, it's just... Okay, yeah. No, no, no. Sorry. I didn't mean to wake you. You were just tossing and turning. shaking almost as bad as I do. It went on for a while. Didn't know if it was best to wake you or... It's... It's okay. I'm glad you did. What was it? Well. Oh, um... Right, sorry. I don't know where the nightmare ends or begins anymore. When I woke up, I could still see everything. Hey, you don't have to get into it. Um, here. You want some coffee? Where the hell did you... There was an office down by the gas pumping station. Rated it this morning. Already had a few too many cups? No. No, no, I, um... This is kind of normal. After I haven't had any, um... You know, in a while. Withdrawals. Ah, my bad. Found some stale crackers, too, if you're hungry. Don't have much of an appetite. I'm sure. Did, uh, either of you sleep at all last night? How long you been up? I did. Maybe a few hours here or there, but I'm fine. I wanted to keep watch. Is there anything to see? A few fires at Lechuguilla, and that's about it. Now that it's daylight, you can see the bombing leveled just about everything over there. And it worked. Good. You still trying to contact your people? Yeah, for a while now. No response from the family, still. This is a bit nuts, I gotta say. Yeah, well, I mean, the world's on fire right now. Westport's under attack. Lechiquia's burning Prim was overrun and now something may be going on at Dean's family home where else is there left for us to go I don't know I really don't know what is that heads up plane incoming from the east they can't see us Can they? No, no, not a chance. They're flying low, but still, no way. Republic? Are they doing a check on the bombing site? That's the only thing that would come from that direction. It's definitely not military. It's pretty small. Hey, where are those binoculars? Uh, uh, oh, here. Wait. Is that... What do you see? Not much. Uh, can I borrow the binoculars? Yeah. Don't know if they'll do you any good with you shaking like that. All I could tell is it's a civilian plane. Small. At least it's not the Republic's Air Force. I thought they might be on to us. Whoa. I've seen that plane before. What? Yeah. No offense, but there's no way from this distance that you could tell it's... Yeah, yeah. No, no, no. That's the plane that we chased. The one that landed in Louisiana. Whoa, whoa, whoa. No way. That's not Vincent's jet. It can't be. Give me those. How could you possibly recognize it? We kept watching it from the cockpit for a long time. I remember. Same color, same shape, everything. I mean, I can't read the numbers, but it really does look similar. No, Will's right. That has to be it. How many others are still flying that would look like that? Say it is. Where would they be go? Oh. They're heading to Lechugu, aren't they? It's Vera. She knew I was headed there, right? Yeah, but why didn't anyone from the family contact me about this? They know I'm there. What if they can't, Dean? You're right, something must have happened in Iroh. What happens if they fly to Lechuguia and find a way to land there? That'd be bad, right? Shit. Wait, Nick! We need to get there now and warn her. She's coming back to me. She promised. We still don't know for sure that's even them. She's on that plane, Dean. Come on. How are we going to get back there? We can't just walk. Fuck, fuck, fuck. What about the black jeep? The one Tanya used to take into town? It's over here, but it's been sitting a while. But does it even still run? How can we get past the border again? We'll find a way. Oh, man, I heard that last time. Do you both want to keep arguing with me about this? I'm arguing. It's pointing out. You can go or stay at this point. I don't care. See, keys, keys, keys. They're not in here. Move over. Hold my bag. What are you doing? You think you can actually hotwire it? Oh, I know I can. It's turning it over that worries me. Oh, Nick, Nick. Okay, I'm sorry. Not right now, Will. Okay, okay. Fuck. Not much ammo left. If we can't get this Jeep moving, I'm walking. Come on. Do you need me to go look under the hood? Woo! Yes! Hold on! I was gonna ask that you knew how to do that, but why ask questions when I already know the answer to them? My mom, Ruth, taught me. May not seem like it, but she's the sneakiest one. I'm telling you, taught me a lot. Can you still see them? Yeah, they are definitely flying in the direction of Lechuguia. You guys may be right. Hold on, Vera. I'm coming. I'm coming. Descendants will continue after a word from our sponsors. And now, back to Descendants. Rally up, behind the solar panels. Empty city. Yeah. I don't see anyone either. Not on the walls, around the fence line. Nothing. Prim's practically deserted. That's only what we can see from the outside. We can at least keep up the pace. How far till we can move into the city? Past these panels here should be the train tracks. We followed those inside and that take us right up to where we need to go Everything we need is stored right next to the train depot Any other gates or security Well the rail line is fenced off where the tracks go past the outer walls but with our bolt cutters shouldn be an issue After these panels, we'll be out in the open. Should move quickly into the city. Okay, everyone else good? Yeah, good here. Then let's move. Wait, down! What is... Big ones. I'd say. Bulls. Those are the ones from Varan... The Heartland Arena. Some of the bull infected must have made it outside the wall. I count four. Those won't be easy to take down, if at all. Oh, and they're grouped around the train tracks right where we were going to get in. There's no chance we may get past those bulls Not with our small caliber rifles It would take something much bigger This is just great Around? We go around? Maybe I'd have to check the map Tell us The only way I remember that's not all the way on the other side of the compound Would be the north tunnel Tunnels? Where they move the infected under the city? Not a chance in hell I'm going back down there. No, not under the city. This was for cars and people coming from the Las Vegas side. We built Mountain Arena over the highway. It's a pretty big way in. Like, under a huge bridge. And that lets out here? I guess after that we could move along the arena's wall, right to the train station? That's where the tanks are? Mm-hmm. And that path you trace would be secure, in case there are more infected inside, Prim. A chain-link fence and barbed wire, but better than nothing. That's even if we decide to go in there now. The risk just went up considerably. We'd have to cover all this distance, and our only exit was over the train tracks. And with those things now in the way... But with tanks... Yeah, Dot's right. The tanks would go right through any infected for sure. Nothing could stop us at that point. Look, we don't know if the entire city is overrun with infected. Maybe only those bulls got out. Okay, fine. But is this all still worth it? Prim could still be run by the boar and her people. I don't know about everyone else, but I'd rather take her guns away for ourselves. Maybe then she'd actually leave us alone. Not one Atlan would ever want to go back there. And if we stand any chance of breaking the Republic's line and helping Westport, it's with that heavy armor. Seems like you all still want to try. Why not? We did come all this way. Taking the boar's toys is worth it. Not sure we'll get another chance at this. Doubt Gloria would let you out all a second time. Look, what if there's nothing else in our way and we just gave up here? Yeah. Well, that's hardly ever the case. But if you're all good with this, then who would I be to stand in the way? Okay, let's get moving. Okay then, Phyllis, you know the route? Lead us around the other solar panels to the highway. Don't let them see us. Got it. Clear. Still nothing. There! That's the North Gate tunnel that goes into the arena. You weren't kidding. That is massive. Covers the whole damn highway. Dark. Power must still be out in most areas. I can see light on the other side. It's not that far. If it's all right with you, I'll follow in the back. Rear team. We've changed plans and are coming through the 15 on the north side of Prim. If we call for pickup, rally there. Copy, Billy? I hear you. Will do. Demon? Demon's fine. Let's move quick. We're out here in the open. Gate open. The big ones must have busted the gate. That's how they got out. Watch the sides watch between the course Stay close who me? Clear right clear left Almost there Wait. Got it. Oh my god, that was so close. Shh. Are there more? Only one. That was a damn skinwalker. Nice, Doc. I didn't even see it. I didn't have a chance to. Are we moving forward? Get out of the tunnel. Security gate on the left. That's where we go. Phyllis? Huh? Phyllis? Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's it. Come on, then. Step it up. I am. I will. Nice going, Dot. Dot, Dot. Cut lock? Yeah. Still no signs of anyone or anything else. Aside from that one? Oh boy. You can thank Dot later. Just keep your eyes open. Is this the way? Yeah. Yeah, but follow this fence line. We'll take us directly to where the tanks are. At least it's wide open out here. Nothing can sneak up. You're telling me. B-Barn? If any of the Boar's people are still around, they'd be in there. Move quickly. Those monorails still work? Not without any power. And a good way for someone to notice us. I'm just curious. We... met there. Yeah. That's the Contender Dorms where we met. It shouldn't be much further. I can't believe you both made it through those games of ours. God, me too. But seeing you and Dot in action makes sense. Uh, thanks. Dot. Okay, careful up ahead. The passage gets narrow between these two arenas. Which one is this to our right? Swampland. Very gross in there. Water and mud, mostly. Muckraker infected, like marsh trolls. And then some ridgebacks. What those? Infected that live in the trees, jump from the tops, never touching the ground. Long manes of hair down their backs. Hence the name. And you've seen all these? Only from replays. Not the only thing the slave camps could watch. They'd show us highlights on repeat. Kinda sick. Not kind of. Yeah, was a way to keep everyone in line. Little further. Should be just past that building. Infected management. How'd you know what that is? We may have snuck in there before we went into the arenas. Helped to know what we were up against. Well, that was lucky. And risky. But it worked? Not for everyone. Shh. You hear that? It's coming from inside, infected management. Oh, great. Window. Can you see what it is? No. Glass must be one-sided. Infected, get out inside there? We should keep moving. Come on. I can see the train station. We're so close now. Go. I'll cover the rear. Doc, the gate. Done. Oh, the train! No way. Their train is still here. They just left it. That's the one we came in on. Look, it's nasty. Just go around. Plenty of flatbed rail cars. Not bad shape. Okomotive. EMT, SD45. Oh, those are good engines. Grant, listen, I know you're a trained guy, but we need to focus on getting to the tanks. It's just, there's so few operating locomotives anymore, and gotta admire when they... I see the tanks! One more fence! Move, move. What the hell? They're all covered in tarps? I bet I know why. Uh-huh. I wasn't positive before, but this confirms it. Red guard tanks from the Republic. I knew Prim was responsible for the attack on our train. This is what they used. Didn't want anyone knowing about it. To make everyone believe the Republic was behind it. Why would they do that? False flag. False flag? Yeah. The tanks they brought to the Atlas were desert camel-colored. Didn't want these to be seen. Still wanted people to believe it was the Republic. to start their war. Okay, look, does that matter right now? Tanks are tanks, right? And they're going to be ours. Uncover all of them. Hey, Grant, can you... I'll get started. You and you, with me. Open up all the driver's hatches. I'm with you, Grant. Let's go. Phyllis and Dot, pull security at the fence line while they work. We did it. So far. I found the fuel drums, but what about the ammo? Where would they keep that? It'll be in that storage room there. You'll have to find a way to get inside, though. Alex! I heard it too. From behind us? Sounds like just one. If we shoot, everything and everyone will know we're here. Then Dot It coming around the train Careful Dot Careful Please please no Wait, stop, stop! No, do it! That's one of her animals. Feel! No, no, no, no, I'm not anymore, I promise, I swear! Please! It's a trick! Look at him, he looks like hell. Then he may be infected. Oh. No, no, wait, wait, wait, no, I'm not, I'm not, I swear, okay? People did this, alright? I was shot a few times. Even once with an arrow. That was you? Yeah, I've just been lucky, you know, so, so lucky. Or infected, like I said. No, no, no, I'm still a person, okay, please. They never got close to me. I've been hiding in there this whole time, okay? Inside infected management? Yeah, yeah, I saw you coming by. You know, I banged on the window, but you couldn't see me. And I have been trapped for so long. Please, just take me with you, all right? We gotta get away from here. Cut, Seal. What? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Not my call. Alex? Alex, Alex, please. Please, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Let him go. Oh, praise Jesus. Thank you so much. Not smart. Where are the others? The other animals? The boar's crew, man. They're dead. They're dead. All of them. Seriously? Yeah, I haven't seen no one. Not for days. What about the boar? Dead too, far as I know. They all went into the barn and never came out. Those things, man, the infected are everywhere. We've barely seen any. They're gathering in the arenas. All different kinds. I'm surprised they're not killing each other. We saw a lot of that on the replays. No, that's not... No, no, no, that's not happening anymore. They are different now. Something changed. You know their eyes, even? Eyes? Completely black. no infighting, and I think even more have been coming from the outside of the city that are the same way. Those bulls we saw by the back gate? Maybe they aren't from inside here. Look, I am real, real sorry for what I did before, okay? I was just trying to get by. I have paid enough, see? Bullet wounds and all that, just... Look, I will do, I will do, I will do anything y'all want, okay? I swear, I swear, just please, I beg of you, please just do not leave me here. Alex! You stay there, Seal. Shut up and don't move a damn muscle. Dot? Watching. Thank you, thank you. Okay, okay, not moving, not moving, I swear. Got some bad news. Who's this? He says he used to work under the boar. Says they're all dead. Told us he's the last human here. And that the infects are all blackout and active money. Do not forget that part. Okay, shut up, whatever. We don't have time. What is it, Grant? Most of these tanks are in bad shape. Engines blown, treads missing, dead batteries. Would take weeks to try and get them running again. Whoever used them really didn't know what the hell they were doing. Ran them into the ground. So all this was a waste? Not completely. There's one of each kind that are good. An Abrams, a Bradley, and a gun truck with mounted .50 cal still in decent shape. Well, that's at least something. Can you get those ready? Yes, but problem number two is we can't get into the ammunition storage. It's locked up tight. I can help you with that. You can? You can't trust him. No, no, that's how you'd be leaving, right? With those tanks. Shells are locked up in that armory building there. And I can get you in. Without ammo, all this would be a waste. There's not going to be anything funny in there, is there? No, no, just tons of shells and bullets. I've seen it. Republic gave her a lot. Really? Why? I don't know. Worked out some deal. Look, the Borg traded with everybody. That may be how she got these tanks in the first place. Any other way to get in that armory? Not without a lot of time and being really loud. Okay then. Seal? You're not going to listen to me, are you? He worked for the Borg. We don't have much of a choice. Dot? Oh, I watch him. You try anything? No, I won't. I won't. I won't, I swear. May take a minute to remember the code, but, you know, I know it. I think. Oh, great. You know, Alex, if there are really a lot of munitions, it may be easier to just load them onto the train. I mean, those tanks and gun trucks won't have much space with all of us, too, so we could just load up everything that way. You really want that train, don't you? I mean, they took my last one. Karma says I take theirs. Yeah, I don't know about this. Well, let me at least check the train engine. Maybe more trouble than it's worth. Okay, fine. Go. I'll cover you. Clear. Go ahead. Does it work though? We should hurry this up But the power isn't coming on Not sure why Well, then maybe we should keep focusing on the tanks. What is this? Is that you? Oh, that, uh, that's just some fire they made for the arenas. You can drop that. Come on. We need to go. And that? Huh. What a strange way to meet. What? What? Oh, my God. Grant. No. Look. No. No, no, no, no. Lisa? Grant. My baby girl? Lisa? Grant, please. Look, we have to be quiet. Did you know about this? She was... She was with you. She was with you in the arena. I... I don't... Did you know about this? Wait, wait, wait. Did you know that Lisa was my daughter? I... I'm sorry, Grant. I... Look. You did! No, look. And you kept it from me. Shit. Grant, come with me. No. Grant, please, come with me. No. Grant, stop, please. Get away, get away, get away. Get away. Fine. Kill that alarm. Trying. I'm sorry. I thought there wasn't power. You fucking did this? I didn't know the alarm was still working. Shit, shit, shit. Yes, you knew. You wanted this. No, no, no, no, no. I did it, I swear! This is bad. This is bad. Is there anything even in that fucking armory? Yeah, I still was right about that at least. It's loaded. Grant? He's by the train. Maybe no one heard the alarm. Maybe it's far away enough. Oh, God. Oh, God. What are we gonna do? Emergency team, we need pickup. Things are going south. Quick. Emergency team. Fuck. Emergency team, get here! We got hit! I can call infected in the hills! There we go! Billy! Demon! Billy! Shit! We gotta go! Get out of here fast! Head down the tracks and make for the hills! That way's blocked! Big-ass infected there, too! We're trapped? We're trapped?! No. We fight. To be continued in the next episode of We're Alive, Descendants. And now, a word from our sponsors. You've been listening to We're Alive, Descendants. Produced by Weyland Productions.
