[WHIMPERING]

[PANTING]

Senan.

Senan, it's me. Please.

Senan, please.

Senan..

Senan, please!

Please, Senan!

[PANTING HEAVILY]

[GROWLS]

No! Stop!

Please!

[SOBS]

I know it's been hard

for you all

being beaten and bullied

and forgotten.

There's no one

looking out for us

but I promise

that ends now.

Today will be

the first day

on the road

to our freedom.

Whoo! Yeah!

- Yes!

- Whoo!

[LOUD GROWLS]

[HEAVY BREATHING]

You know we found

the cure together?

You can't imagine

the excitement.

Later we realized that..

...the subject remembered

what they did

when infected.

Was it worth it?

After everything

we've done?

You weren't in control,

you were just sick.

We cured you.

You get to choose

who you want to be.

Does puppy's baby

have a name?

Uh... Andrew.

- Andrew?

- Yeah.

[LAUGHS]

I'm just making up..

I'm just making up

normal names.

Mm.

Are you involved

with the Cured Alliance?

No.

So where do you go

at night?

I don't want to

get in your way.

There was so much chaos

after the Outbreak.

It was two years before we could

begin to re-enter the city.

We started to hear

a rumor of a cure.

I actually convinced myself

that Luke was infected.

Just... waiting

to be rescued.

And then I came home.

I thought they'd cleared

the entire city.

The smell hit me first.

Luke's gone.

We're your family.

Abbie..

Mom?

Hey, sweetie.

How far outside the city

can we go?

[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

[MUSIC CONTINUES]

Me and your dad used to come

here when we were kids.

It's as if

nothing happened.

Liar, liar,

pants on fire.

- What's her name?

- What?

What's her name?

Beatrice.

Don't get me started

on this.

[INDISTINCT]

Yeah.

Then what we doing

with them?

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

I'll get it.

What's that?

We were just

having dinner.

I won't stay long.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Take a seat.

Hello.

Hi.

I'm Conor.

I'm a friend

of your uncle's.

Cillian, bedtime.

Now, please.

He's a good-looking boy.

I can see

the resemblance.

I called earlier,

but you weren't in.

Where did you go?

Killiney Hill.

Oh. Nice.

It's good to

see you bonding.

It must be tough at the accommodation

center after the bombing.

At least they

arrested someone.

She didn't act alone.

Well, there's a lot of

anger out there, you know?

Particularly

with the Elimination.

Maybe it's for the best.

Dr. Lyons will

find a cure.

- And what if she can't?

- She needs time.

And one of them gets out, and...

and we're right back there.

We're all in danger.
