The Last Man on Earth Page #6

I didn't know.

- Is there any way you can get out of here?

- What do you mean?

They're coming after you tonight.

That's why I was sent here.

To prevent you from resisting them.

I'm supposed to keep you here

until they come.

- To kill me?

- Yes.

Your new society sounds charming.

The beginning of any society

is never charming or gentle.

And you pretended to be shocked

at my violence.

What are you waiting for?

Why don't you go on and use it?

Get it over with. Use it.

Now you know.

What are you going to do?

- What are you doing?

- It's already done.

What?

Look.

You see? It worked, Ruth.

The antibodies in my blood worked.

My blood has saved you, Ruth.

Do you know what this means?

You and I can save all the others.

We won't be alone.

We'll never be alone again.

You are sure?

Wait.

Don't be afraid.

Where are you going?

I have to tell them you're not a threat to us.

- You can't go out there.

- You can save us all.

When they come,

there won't be time for explanations.

They'll come to kill.

For God's sake, Robert, let me go. Please.

Ruth, look. Tomorrow.

Please. Robert.

Tomorrow, Ruth. Tomorrow will be all right.

Robert, no.

- Robert.

- Yes, Ruth?

- What if this doesn't last?

- But it will.

I've already checked it

under the microscope.

Wait, I'll show you.

I'll prove it to you. I'll check it again.

Ruth, just take a look at this.

This'll prove it to you.

There's no change. I've double-checked.

Get away from her.

Ruth, are you all right?

Run, Robert!

Run! They've come to kill you, Robert.

Run!

Up there!

There he is.

Wait, you don't understand. Wait!

Get him!

Wait!

Surround the block. Move!

This way. Hey, over here.

This way. Cover all sides!

Stand back.

There he is! In the church!

Hold your fire!

Freaks!

All of you.

All of you, freaks. Mutations.

Hold it.

You're freaks.

I am a man.

The last man.

They were afraid of me.

They didn't know.

Don't cry. There's nothing to cry about.

We're all safe now.

All safe.
