and here I am.

So you're immune or chosen

or something?

I'm here and they're not.

So, then, I guess you won't mind

kissing my daughter good night for me,

huh, Brian?

I didn't think so.

So much for being chosen, huh?

That's hystericaI, huh, Ivy League?

Where'd you go to schooI, Danny?

-He got a schoIarship to go to Harvard.

-YaIe.

-It was YaIe, actuaIIy.

-It doesn't reaIIy matter, does it?

A IittIe something shut the pIace down

before freshman orientation.

-Watch it, Brian.

-How's that for a knee-sIapper?

-Why do you have to be such a dick?

-Come on!

Watch out! Watch out!

You! You stay in the back, you hear me?

Hey, I wiII if you keep your eyes

on the goddamn road!

Hey, you can get out anytime!

You can get out right now!

-Okay. Okay. Okay.

-Kate! Kate!

The tape heId.

You don't have to worry about it.

Are you okay? What is it?

Damn it.

I think she knocked a fiIIing Ioose.

I weep for you.

It's Iocked.

Danny, be carefuI.

It's okay.

Sh*t.

Hey, are you aII right? Danny!

What happened?

Jesus!

Just get the gas and Iet's go.

Hey, kids, we'lI be back in 20.

Yeah, we'lI be back in more Iike five.

Sh*t.

Bobby! Baby?

-What's that?

-That?

WeII, Brian and I,

we had a dad, too.

He was just Iike yours.

And every summer, when we were IittIe,

he wouId take us to this pIace.

It's TurtIe Beach.

And we couId swim and surf,

and we'd fish

and eat these soft-shell crab

sandwiches that were soaked in mayo.

Were there Iots of turtIes?

Lots? God, there were thousands

of them! They were everywhere.

l mean. you could barely put your foot

in the water without stepping on one.

Sometimes they'd be stacked up

on top of each other.

-That's impossibIe!

-It is possibIe.

-They were everywhere.

-Can we go to TurtIe Beach with them?

Time to sIeep.

What makes you think

you're gonna be safe there?

It's an oId moteI.

The pIace has been abandoned

for years. We'lI go on scavenging trips

and quarantine ourseIves

every singIe time we get back,

-and wait.

-UntiI they come for us.

UntiI... UntiI the disease dies off.

The disease or the peopIe?

It's the same thing, reaIIy.

Bobby. l love you.

and you know

what a dipshit I can be sometimes...

What's the big deaI?

I think we shouId see other peopIe.

If that's the way you feeI.

It is the way I feeI.

-You can be such a dipshit sometimes.

-I know!

ProbabIy the biggest in the worId

at this point.

Do you ever think of YaIe?

Yeah. Sure.

That, and aII those things

you think you'lI get to do someday.

Jesus!

-Put it out! Put the fire out!

-Go, go, go, go, go!

Where do you think you're going, boy?

-Hurry up.

-Hurry.

Just keep it down. Keep it down.
