You just hit a woman with

your car. Was she on foot?

Yeah, she's in this road right

now, she's very badly hurt.

She's very badly hurt.

Okay we got it. Where

are you right now?

I'm on... I'm on...

I'm in the middle of nowhere.

Sir, sorry, you're breaking up.

I said, I'm in the middle

of nowhere!

What do I do?

Okay, sir, I can't send an ambulance

if I don't know where you are.

Is there a cross street?

No, there's... Um, there

is some lights up ahead.

I think there is a town

a few miles ahead.

Okay, so there's a town. Can you

tell me anything about where that...

I can't find it on

my GPS, I'm sorry.

Okay, I'm passing you to

emergency medical, one moment.

Okay.

Hello, can you hurry up please?

- Sir it's okay, are you there?

- Yes I'm here.

I'm the certified EMT,

are you with her now?

Yup.

Great, describe her

condition to me.

She's got a headed trauma

and some broken bones.

- Multiple broken bones I think.

- Okay, anything else?

She's got a compound

fracture of her knee. I think.

- Is she's breathing?

- Yup.

- Is she conscious?

- I can't be clear.

- You're doing fine.

- Sir? Lucas?

Yeah.

- Lucas?

- How do you know my name?

We have your cell.

- Right, of course.

- You need to trust us, okay?

Okay.

She's in critical condition

and we can't seem to locate you

so we like you to try

and move her.

You want me to move her?

You said there's a

town up ahead, right?

All right, okay.

You're okay.

Okay, I got her in the back

seat, we're are driving.

I'm heading south.

Are you still with me?

Can you hear me?

Yeah we're here just

stay with us, okay?

You're doing just great, Lucas.

There's a lot of cracks in the

windshield, I cannot see very well.

What I am looking for

when I get there?

- We're gonna talk you through it.

- All right, good.

I'm doing about 80 right now, I think

I can go faster, I'm gonna go faster.

Lucas? You need to

say something to her.

Yeah.

You know, in case

she can hear you.

I'll do everything I can.

Lucas, tell us when

you're close.

Okay, just got into town.

There's shops, I see a barber shop. I

see there's a tattoo parlor, a church.

Do you see any people?

Anyone on the side of the road?

Anyone you can ask for help?

No, I don't see anyone,

there's nobody.

What about on coming traffic?

Can you flash your lights

at the on coming traffic?

No, I don't see anyone.

There's no on coming traffic?

Or there's no people?

Okay, wait a minute.

Okay, there's a sign up here.

It's a hospital sign, I think I'm

pulling up into a local hospital.

Dispatch to vehicle. He's located

a medical facility of some sort.

Be advised, no contact.

Local PD.

Lucas we'll stay with you
