If you had heard a car,

the driver would be long dead by now.

Shouldn't we at least try

.. to call the police?

Someone to find out

what actually happened?

There's no one left to call.

See that? Nothing's coming through.

You think I sound crazy.

It's amazing, you people..

You wear helmets when you ride your bikes,

you have seat-belts,

You're in your cars, you have alarm

systems to protect your homes.

But what do you do when

those alarms go off?

Crazy, is building your ark after

the flood is already come.

I think now might be time you

met Frank and Mildred.

Closest I can get to in airlock.

See?

What happened to them?

They weren't as lucky as you.

It's the air, Michelle.

That's what happens when you get exposed.

I keep this door sealed, at all times.

No one comes in or out.

Met Frank and Mildred, huh?

It's funny, right?

The whole world ends. And the thing's he's

most upset about is a pair of dead pigs.

You gonna need some ..

Uh, reading material.

That's all there is, sorry.

My idead of how to learn to do

a french braid, so..

If you want me to do that for you,

just let me know.

What do you know about him?

He was in the Navy, I know that.

I guess he did, uh,

some stuff with satellites.

What kinds of stuff?

Satellite .. stuff.

And what brought him out here?

I'm not sure.

He bought this property a whle back.

I never paid much attention, until he

hired me to help him get this place set up.

The work, was, uh..

Entertaining, though, that's for sure.

You know, Howard, is like a black belt

in conspiracy theories.

Plus, you know, how often do you get

hired to build the doomsday bunker?

He .. kidnapped you?

No.

What happened to your arm?

You were trying to escape?

I was trying to get in.

And I watched Howard build this

place, piece by piece, for years.

He was always talking about..

You know, possible attacks,

Al-Qeda, Russia, South Korea,

- You mean North Korea?

- The, the.. is that the Korean one?

Yeah, that one. Hmm ..

And, hmm, you know. Pour

all his money into this

place, took to it, like

his life depended on it.

Which,.. you know,

That stays with you.

So,

He told all this,

While you're building his bomb shelter,

And now he says that ..

The air is contaminated,

and everybody's dead.

Yeah, I know what you're getting at.

But there's more to it.

Howard abducted me.

He drove me off the road,

and he dragged me here.

So whatever he's telling you

about the .. air,

Some big attack. The purpose

of this shelter, is a lie.

No, no way.

The attack, I saw it myself.

What do you mean?

Coming on my way from work,

And, looked like a flash.

Bright red,

Like an explosion, from way far off.
