Safety announcement:

Decompression.

Breathe normally.

Tighten the elastic band around your head.

[Seatbelt alarm sounds]

Tobias over radio:

Someone get up here now. I need a co-pilot.

You go. I'll go look for David.

- Tobias:
Loss of pressure in the cabin.

Safety announcement:

Decompression.

Breathe normally.

Tighten elastic band around your head.

Lock the door.

Come in, take a seat.

The co-pilot seat.

You're the pilot's traveler,

and I need your help to fly the plane.

You just have to do exactly what I say, ok?

David!

Look above you, there are two red switches

next to each other.

Press them both.

Good, and another gray one

on the panel there.

Ha!

Not so hard, is it?

David.

David!

David!

David!

No!

David, here!

He swore we'd go back for them, he swore!

No, don't!

Noooooo!

I couldn't hear what he said.

He uh...

He obviously lost his nerve.

It makes no sense.

Let's just keep this

between the three of us.

[Knocks on door]

Nothing can get through that door.

Open the door.

I need to talk to you.

We're a little busy.

Plane doesn't fly itself.

The infection's on the plane...

Eric...

- We can't take it with us.

Even if we're somewhere clean...

- Eric. Eric...

We'll deal with it when we get there.

Wrap them up.

Put them in the hold.

We can't risk spreading this thing.

Tobias, we have to land.

Eric, the only reason you're alive

is that there's forty thousand feet

between you and what's going on down there.

Have you looked down?

You seen the smoke below?

I know.

I know, it's a warzone.

The fields we're flying over

are piled high with bodies.

And they're the lucky

ones from the first wave.

No one's collecting the bodies anymore.

It's not a warzone down there.

It's hell.

We have to get the bodies off.

Ewan... and Larry too.

We need Larry.

This plane's barely staying in the air.

You're not listening!

Think, Tobias!

We're flying the infection!

Do you understand what you'll be

responsible for? What you're doing?

We're surviving.

Like everybody else...

F*** you!

He's gone.

This doesn't seem real.

I can't believe they're gone.

Takes a while.

Takes a while to sink in.

Did you lose someone?

How can I keep going when they...

They're not suffering now.

They're at peace.

Do you believe in heaven?

Does it help?

No.

Not yet.

But it will.

Knowing I'll be with him again...

is it yours?

Hmm?

David's.

Nuts, Mr Ayres?

Kevin!

He's just lost his family.

Yeah, but... not necessarily his appetite.

Who knows how long

we're going to be on this plane?

What are you praying for?

A miracle.

I'm going to tell them... I'll

just have to tell them...

I've got to tell them,

we've just taken off...
