The Carrier

---

[Aeroplanes soar]

Radio announcer:
Immobilized to try

and stop people from fleeing the UK.

And now after four days of rioting.

There is a deathly silence over London

as the second wave

sweeps through the capital.

The violence, thought

to be provoked by the news

that the medical community

are powerless to find a cure...

Close the window.

...I have been asked to remind you

to stay in your homes

and avoid contact with anyone

who has contracted the infection.

But most importantly,

do not attempt to leave the UK.

The UK is now under quarantine,

and we must avoid spreading this infection.

In the capital, the air is thick with black smoke.

In London's parks, bodies continue to burn...

We're almost there.

[Helicopter propellers whirr]

Over walkie-talkie:

Most terrifying, over.

Listen to me, your dad's

waiting for us at the plane.

I'm going to drop you right next to it, ok?

It's ok. It's ok.

Soldiers:

Get out of the car!

[Bangs on window]

We're clean,

we're going to meet my husband.

Please. Families should be together.

Get out of the oar.

You don't understand,

we haven't got much time.

Truth is, my husband's a pilot.

He's with his crew, and I'm putting

my little boy on that plane.

He's going to get out of here.

- The infection has to be contained.

I know we're supposed to stay at home,

but there's no hope for this place.

There's a chance for him,

can't you see that?

Soldier:

These are gloves.

It doesn't matter about me, check him, he's

clean, I haven't touched him, I swear!

Soldier 2:
Stop him!

- Run!

[Gunshot]

Soldier:

Don't move!

[Gunshot]

Various radio announcers: Military efforts

to contain the outbreak have failed.

There will be no evacuation.

Do not attempt to leave your home.

Do not attempt to leave the country.

This is a global pandemic.

Lesions in the skin enable

severe bacterial infection

which leads to sepsis as the immune system

reacts, and then septic shock.

Fever, nausea, systemic toxicity...

Fever.

, do not attempt to cover up symptoms.

Do not seek treatment.

We repeat. There is no known...

The infection is fatal.

[Phone rings]

Hey, you ok?

- I'm fine.

Craig!

He's treating us like dogs.

Yeah, we need to see if it's spread.

What's he going to do if it has?

I've gotta get that.

Couldn't we just quarantine them?

And what if there's a cure in Greenland?

That was just a rumour.

They're desperate.

Tobias, the infection's on the plane.

- Tobias:
Crew?

Nah, the kid.

- Isolate the child, move everyone away.

Eric took care of it.

- You sure?

Yeah, he's checking us now.

This plane's barely staying in the air,

send David up immediately.

David?

- Yes!

Yeah, I thought he was with you?

- Find him. Now.

Have you seen the co-pilot?

David? He's in the cockpit.

Look, we're clean.

Come on Eric, let her through.

For god's sake, have a heart.

Look, I'm telling you,

it was someone else!

Sweatshirt. Now.

Turn...

Sorry.

[She screams]

Stop!

Enough, enough Eric!

The boy's infected too.

We need to seal up this cabin.

We have to land, get these...

These bodies off the plane.

We can't take the infection with us.

You saw what it was like down there,

we wouldn't stand a chance.

[He shouts]

Stay back!

It's only in my hand.

Clean out wouldn't get it.

- Yeah, but...

There's a saw in my toolkit.

I can't.

There's no time.

Katie! We're going to need

a first aid kit in here!

Craig:

F***...

Maria...

Is Mr Ayres infected?

No.

Then why are you leaving him back there?

He brought his family,

knowing they're infected.

You can't do that.

What's wrong?

There's no saw.

I've never seen it spread

this quickly before.

Thank you. Pull the belt tight.

No saw?

Jess.

Where's Jess, where is she?

- Mr Ayres.

So sorry.

It's too late.

So high?

Get on with it.

Do it!

What the hell was that?

Oi!

Eric's coming!

It was him.

You killed them, you bastard!

We have a chance to

escape this curse...

and you bring along your

filthy infected family!

You killed my wife!

And you killed us all.

What. Is. That?

It's ok.

We got to it in time.

You can't just cut the infection off!

We just did.

We got to get him off the plane, now.

And the rest.

We. Can't. Land.

That's why they grounded all the planes.

People like you not caring

where they take the infection.
