As long as it doesn't rain. If the rains come too soon,

we'll all be contaminated and die.

That is, if we don't let other forces destroy us before that time.

What other forces?

Never mind that now.

But make no mistake about it: You're not welcome here.

This was planned for just three people. That's how much food we have.

If we divide that among the six of us, we'll soon have empty stomachs and rebellion.

I have the keys to the storeroom.

I, and I alone, will say when and how much food we eat.

Any argument about that, and I'll settle it with this.

Oh, you're a big man, packin' that gun.

Just don't you let go of it.

I don't intend to.

Where are you going with that?

- My brother.

- Save the food.

Your brother's a casualty, face it.

Take it to him.

Dad, I've never seen you like this before.

We can't become animals. We're still human, and we've got to act like it!

That's just what I'm afraid of. We're all human.

Granger? How ya doin'?

I'm not gonna die.

I thought I was, but I'm not. I know I'm not, now.

Well, it's a miracle. You soaked up 700 Renchens.

I don't understand it, but I'm glad.

- Here. Try something to eat.

- I don't want that.

I need fresh meat. Raw meat.

Well, I'll put your order in with the chef.

I don't know, but... I think it'll do me good.

- Well, why don't you wash up and get into some clean clothes, huh?

- No. No water.

Just let me rest.

I'll be OK just the way I am.

You didn't tell me how you two happened to be near this valley yesterday.

Uh, we're not exactly on the main highway.

We were camped on the other side of the lake.

That's not too far off the highway.

We were on our way to California. I thought it'd be a kick to sleep out.

Yeah. Then her old car wouldn't start, and we were stranded.

You two married?

She's an old friend of the family.

Look, kid, you can be a friend of my family anytime you want.

Jada's a performer, a dancer.

I'm her manager.

I... I guess it was stuck.

Now you know why she can't work with a fan.

Nice looking guy. Your brother?

My fiance.

He was supposed to be here yesterday.

You were gonna marry him.

I'm sorry. Really sorry.

What's the matter?

Strange...

I felt like I heard someone calling.

But not really calling.

Just something strange.

Come on, snap out of it.

Let's go to your father's storeroom and see if we can find some canned beef for my brother, huh?

Steve, come with me. I want to check the radioactivity outside.

Go ahead, Steve. I'll get the canned beef.

How we doing, John?

It's at 49. That's up 2 since last night.

It's as if some magic force is holding those clouds up out of this valley.

- That's the warm air from the lake. Creates an updraft.
