The Last Survivors Page #2

Synopsis: At the edge of an expansive barren valley, all that remains of The Wallace Farm for Wayward Youth is a few hollowed-out husks of buildings. Seventeen year-old Kendal (Haley Lu Richardson) can barely recall when the Oregon valley was still lush. It's been a decade since the last rainfall, and society at large has dried up and blown away. Kendal and the few others that remain barely scrape by, while dreaming of escape. When a greedy water baron lays claim to what little of the precious resource remains underground, Kendal must decide whether to run and hide or bravely fight for the few cherished people and things she has left.

They can help Dean.

Flacker says they have medicine.

You never knew family.

We can start again.

Make a new family.

I hear Carson has a daughter.

We can send them to get Dean.

It's his kidneys, girl.

Same as his sister, Pia.

There's just no way you kids

are getting out of here.

I can find Dean more water.

Things might be better

outside the valley.

If we go north,

there has to be water.

You still have faith.

That's good.

We hid a day's worth of water

on the north side of the house.

Welcome to it once we're gone.

Didn't your people have a plane?

Used to?

Shot down over the pumping field.

Burned out there for two days straight.

Guess that's one way out.

Welcome, Mr. Carson.

Thank you for responding to our call.

We are unarmed and ready.

Good.

If you'd like to look around...

Then shall they begin to say,

the mountains fall on us,

to the hills cover us.

For if they do these things

in a green tree,

what shall be done in the dry?

I know this is hard,

but there just wasn't enough water,

you see?

Here, listen to me.

These are old people and

they're gonna suffer.

Understand?

I had to do it.

- You're different, friend.

- Huh.

I can tell. Now...

tell me...

is there anybody else on this farm?

Huh?

Come on now. Listen, if we're gonna have

a relationship that's based on trust...

- you have to come clean.

- Please don't.

Otherwise, what's the point?

Yeah, there-there's, uh, one more.

One more?

Use the heat sensors.

You look like a man who prays.

Sit, daughter of mine.

I believe this is going to be

the very last holdout.

As far as the eye can see, this valley

has Carsons buried under every acre of it.

And I'm not gonna stop

till it's all ours.

They suffer less this way, don't they?

These little people?

Think of it...

as an extinction of a species.

Like...

passenger pigeon or the...

ivory-billed woodpecker.

Your world's about to get

so much better.

What could be better than this?

This one's yours, my love.

Now, is that everyone?

Hmm?

Yes sir.

How's the pump?

It's slow.

But okay.

The usual.

Did you get hurt?

Nope.

Good.

I know why our pump is failing.

Why?

They're draining the aquifer.

All those pumps goin' around the clock.

They're suckin' the water

right out from under us.

But it's our well.

If the company drains all the water...

and drive all the squatters away...

they control the whole valley.

Maybe we should call Carson.

Maybe the company camps aren't so bad.

We can't.

Carson's not taking people to camps.

He's the one that's been doing

all the killing.

It's not Christmas yet.

Says who?

That's good.

We should go back inside.

They'll be hunting soon.
