The Human Race

- How are you holding?

- I'm fine. I'm not the one who is sick.

Your sister isn't

reacting to the treatment.

We're doing everything we

can, but chances are...

Amy is a fighter.

She will fight this thing.

Amy Tyler. 8 years old.

Safe with Mommy and Daddy in Heaven.

I don't have good news I'm afraid.

You've developed chronic B cell

lymphocytic lymphoma. It's...

I know what it is.

- It took my mom, my sister.

- We can give you chemo.

F*** you.

Veronica, I reviewed your new test.

I have some major news.

What? I have given

myself an extra month to live?

No.

You are in complete remission.

- You're serious?

- Very serious.

Thank you.

Only one may win.

The school.

The house and the prison are safe.

Follow the arrows, or you will die.

Stay on the path, or you will die.

If you were locked twice, you will die.

Do not touch the grass...

or you will die.

Race or die.

What the f***?

Come on.

Come on, man. Wake up.

Come on, wake up.

Come on, come on.

Come on.

A chosen training, I'd rather die.

No. Dying is overvalued.

What's your name?

- Eddie.

- Justin. Good to meet you, Ed.

Better to meet you.

Most men would have left me to die.

You do not have much

faith in human nature, huh?

Don't.

It'll give us away.

I feel she crawling on my legs.

It's too dark until morning.

It's better to freeze to death,

than get our heads chopped off.

You know what I mean?

- "Dust in the Wind."

- Huh, shut the f*** up.

- I want them to play "Dust in the Wind '.

- Huh, that's a sad f*** song for a funeral.

Yeah, what's the point. If you want them

to cry for you, is a guaranteed tearjerker.

Four hours.

- When the sun comes up.

- Then what.

Then I'll get you out of here.

For one day you will wake up with

someone who is prettier than me .

- Hey, you on your way?

- Yeah.

- You're supposed to be here in an hour.

- What?

Where are you, man? You have to

be here in an hour. Where are you?

I don't know. That's what

girl's place look like, disco ball.

Hey, guys.

Hold on, okay?

- Where are you at? Up the bar from school?

- She had been here before too, huh?

Is she hot?

Yeah, dude, I'm in hell.

You have reek of booze.

You sure you want me to come?

Let me schedule.

The kid's won't mind.

You ought to come, man.

They look up to you.

All right, then I'll be there.

- All right, bye.

- Are you ready?

- Yeah.

- All right. First one to the

entrance way wins, all right.

- Deal.

- All right.

Everyone, clear the hallway.

- You know that I'm undefeated, right.

- I know.

So if I lose, I clean

your wheels for a week.

Yeah.

You look a little nervous.

All right, relax, man.

All right, Cody, are you ready?

Start us up buddy.

- Ready to go.

- Yeah.

Mr. Connor, this isn't

your private racetrack.

Mr. Connor?

If you want to do it,

simply do it.

Don't listen to the outside world. Where

you can achieve what you want to achieve.

Anyone have any questions?

Ronnie?

When you were in the war with

Mr Conner, did you ever kill anyone?

We were there to help people.

And you only kill if you absolutely must.

And luckily we

weren't in that situation.

Seems like a good bunch

of kids you got there.

Yeah, they are.

How are you making out?

Good. Same sh*t,

different day, you know.

Yeah.

- Want to grab something to eat?

- Sure.

So. You saved me from some nightmares

torture, my friend. Thanks for the rescue.

- Story of our lives, huh.

- She wasn't even like a bird or rodent.

She was like this ugly

puffer fish, who just swam

up from the deepest, darkest

depths of the ocean.

How does a few drinks turn

Medusa into an angel?

Your definition of a few drinks

maybe somewhat skewed.

Bird or rodent.

What the hell does that mean?

Have I never told you that before?

Birds or rodents. Women.

If you look at them, you can trace

their lineage back to a bird or rodent.

- Oh, yeah?

- Yeah, they either have like ...

big toucan sam noses or little scrunched

up muskrat faces. I mean look at them, man.

All right.

How about her?

- What you got?

- Her? She's a moo cow.

She is no cow.

They talking like cartoon cow.

You know. Cute.

- So you'll find the cows?

- No, I would never take a cow to bed.

In fact, knowing your facts

then, we slept together...

I don't think you ever

kicked anyone out of bed.

That's because our first

date was grand, you know.

Lying under the stars.

The school, the house

and the prison is safe.

Follow the arrows,

or you will die.

Stay on the path,

or you will die.

If you are lapped twice, you will die.

Do not touch the grass,

or you will die.

Race or die.

79, 78, 77...

Race or die.

Cannot.

I can't.

Race or die.

Can you tell me?

Hold on. You saw what I saw, right?

I mean he stepped on the grass?

- Yeah.

- 75.

- Do you hear the numbers?

- Yup?

How did it happen,

someone's head explode like that?

What do you remember?

Well, I was telling you about

the girl and the car and then...

a bright white light,

and somehow we're here.

Hey, anyone know where we are?

Do you know where we are?

I don't see any cameras. I don't

know how they are watching us.

The voice in your head, that's

my voice you're hearing, right?

- No, it's mine.

Sure.

- Let's go. What ....

- Come on, man.

We don't have to listen to it.

We don't need to be sheep.

It said that, if we're lapped, we die.

There is a lot of people up ahead of us.
