What?

He'll dig his toes in now.

We're gonna go up

to the highway.

Chris, you stay

behind me.

You...

You stay in front of me

the whole way.

All right, let's go.

Come on.

Go.

Holy cow.

Dispatch.

MILES:

They can't have just vanished.

Well, they seem to have.

It's unlikely he'll be

working alone.

What gives you that idea?

We've got a lunch.

See what you can find out.

Chris, give me that phone.

Keep moving.

Come on, come on,

come on.

Great.

Told you.

That's the end of him.

Carden's still in that car.

Underwater.

Maybe.

Maybe?

Maybe not.

Three people walked off over there.

One's a woman, maybe a kid.

Sh*t, man,

I hate scenery.

Dad, we're

- We're close. The parking area's just down there.

Chris, run ahead.

He'll have a radio. Just

tell him to call the police.

Tell him what happened. Go ahead.

That's not good idea.

Just- I wasn't asking

your advice. Go.

Let's keep going.

Car went over the embankment,

into the river, about a half-mile up.

Sounds bad.

The current'll pull it down here.

May still be somebody inside.

Listen, can you guys help?

We can take the trail.

It's only mile or so

down the river from here.

Did you report it?

Yeah, I called it in.

Chris?

Dad.

What's wrong?

Dad. They shot him.

What?

They shot him.

On the parking lot.

Who?

They shot him.

Take a deep breath.

Take a deep breath.

What happened?

Where are you now?

JOHNSON:

Enjoying the hike.

They must be near you.

No one here yet.

Well, just wait.

They'll show up.

They'd better.

You sure it's them?

I mean, it could have been anyone.

Couple of fag nature lovers.

From the river? It's them.

I told you you were in too deep.

All right.

Just let me think.

We can go up he-

Those your friends?

Okay.

All right.

We're gonna go that way.

Just do it. Go.

Dad?

Where are we going?

Away from here.

Come on, faster. Faster.

They never got to the airport.

Yeah, that was the message.

You think it was them

that went over?

Could be. Unlikely they'd stop for a

turkey dinner and a couple of drinks.

DAVIS:
What have you done with them?

Well, where's Carden?

Never made it here.

You said there were three of them

on the trail.

Yeah, they were.

They must have gone off the trail.

They must've seen us.

Gunga Din's

found something.

They went that way.

Gunga Din was a water

carrier, not a tracker.

They were right here.

You didn't see them?

You need to back off, Davis.

Why don't you open your eyes?

We got problem? We got a problem?

Shut up!

That truck driver reported the

accident. We're gonna have company.

This screw-up's growing by the

minute. We should cut and run.

We got a big payday coming.

Yeah.

They can't be too far ahead.
