You know what this

reminds me of?

What?

Our first night out here.

When I convinced you

to marry me?

Oh, smoke.

You know, you could stay

if you wanted.

John would take you back.

You're a great paramedic.

Look, I'm not changing

my mind, ok?

Something I've always wanted

to do, just go on tour.

You're not taking that

away from me.

I get it, you're right.

I'm sorry I brought it up.

Charles:
Do you have to be

such a f***ing buzz kill?

Dana:
Hello?

What the hell is that?

A**holes!

Hey!

Charles, don't.

Just leave it alone.

Charles:
Probably locals.

They have a campfire

about 200 yards away.

How many of them?

Ten or so.

They like their gunfire

and booze.

Hey, great combination.

I'm gonna kill 'em!

A**holes!

They're crazy.

Charles, you brought a gun?

I'm not gonna let 'em go

all crazy redneck on our ass.

- Dana:
Charles, are you crazy?

- Charles:
Goddamn it!

What is that?

What is that?

What is that?

I don't know.

Dana:
Oh, sh*t! What the f***!

Charles:
Shh!

Help me!

Help me!

Charles, what are you doing?

We can't just leave him

out there.

Yes, we can!

He's close.

Are you crazy?

I'm gonna go with you.

No, I'll be right back.

Charles, you're crazy.

Charles!

Charles!

F***!

Sh*t.

Sh*t.

Stop f***ing with me!

Oh, sh*t.

Hello?

Dana:
Charles?

Charles.

Charles?

Charles?

Charles?

Dana:
Shh!

You're gonna be ok. Shh!

Keep him still.

It's ok, it's ok.

Hold him down!

I'm trying!

I can't stop the bleeding.

Whatever it takes, ok?

Uggh! F***! F***!

That hurt.

Hold him right here.

I mean...

You think it could be

like a black bear?

They're normally not

that aggressive.

I just... I wonder.

I don't know.

That's tight enough.

What the...?

What is it?

Is it a claw?

Looks like a fingernail.

We just need to get out of here.

We can't save him.

Ok? Look at him.

He's getting worse, but we do

need to get him out of here.

We need to get us out of here.

One of those four-wheelers

might be our only way.

Good, let's...

Go get on one now.

The trick is not injuring him

more on the way back down.

Look, look, maybe we can

just go and get help back.

Ok?

The ranger station's not far.

Ok. It's ok.

That thing is gone.

Don't even start.

I don't need to be right, ok?

I just...

I think we need

to get out of here.

- Dana:
Charles. Look.

- Charles:
What?

- You have an open fracture.

Movement of the broken bone

will increase pain.

Listen to me, you've lost

a lot of blood.

Dana, whispering:

Please! Please be quiet.

Hey! Sorry. Listen to me.

I know you're in pain

but you really need

to be quiet for me.

- Relax, we're gonna help you.

- Man:
We gotta get out of here.

I know.

Charles:
What's your name?
