The Signal

---

Oh, my...

- I can see the...

- What?

I can see the keys.

The... The... The keys.

Here, I can see 'em. Okay?

- I can see 'em outside.

- Okay. Okay.

- It's okay.

- Okay.

I'm gonna come back

and I'm gonna bring the keys,

and we're gonna be okay. Okay?

- Okay.

- We're gonna be okay.

I'm gonna come back.

What was that?

That was strange.

What?

TV turned itself on.

Come back.

Okay.

What time is it?

Twelve-fifteen.

You're kidding.

Are you serious?

Oh, God.

I'm sorry, I have to call him.

My phone's out.

Thank you.

Your phone's out too.

What?

I have to go.

Just... Just sit down

and relax.

I can't relax, Ben.

I've never done this before.

I don't know what I'm doing.

I don't know how to do this.

I don't know

how to do this.

First you just breathe

and then...

realize that it's okay.

It's okay? What we're doing?

Do you love

your husband?

It doesn't matter.

All right.

I'm just gonna tell him

that I went and had drinks

with the girls

and my phone didn't work.

Makes sense, right?

Don't even have time

to shower here.

Wouldn't want him

to smell you on me.

You know, you could

just leave him.

It's not that simple, Ben.

I mean, I can't possibly just walk...

Anything's possible,

come on.

Anything.

You can just drop your stuff

right now

and stay here tonight

and never go back there again.

Or we could...

go up to the rooftop

and build an exotic

flower garden,

or we could...

take one of my cameras

and dress up

like homeless people

and infiltrate their community

and take pictures

of their lives.

Or we could take my TV

and throw it off the balcony

and replace it

with coloring books.

Or we could

leave Terminus tomorrow.

New Year's f***ing Eve.

We could.

Leave?

We'll go down to the station,

we'll walk up to Terminal 13

and we'll get on a train

and we'll get in

our own private compartment.

Rip each other's clothes off

and f*** our way to freedom.

We'll go to the country

and start a life.

A real life.

Mya and Ben.

New Year's Eve, Terminal 13,

Mya and Ben.

And you don't look back.

That's beautiful.

It's possible.

Leave him.

Leave him.

I have to go.

Okay.

Okay.

Heh. What's this?

It's a present.

It's a mix CD.

I made it for you.

Because I'm an awesome guy.

And I like you.

Follow

In silence

Don't walk away

In silence

Oh, Jesus.

F***.

Hello?

I need some help.

What?

Please.

Okay, I...

Look, I don't have

any money, all right?

I don't any need money.

I am hurt.

If you could come here a minute.

Please, I need some help.

Please.

If you could just come here

a minute. Okay?

Please, for f***'s sake,

you know?

I'm just walking around,

going to my car...

Are you okay?

...and now I'm bleeding.

Bleeding everywhere.

This guy comes up and cuts me

and he runs away,

and I think I...

- Look, okay, all right.

You need to go

to a hospital. Okay?

Oh! Whoa!

Please, just help me

right now. Please.

- Please, help me.

- No.

Don't listen to him.

He's crazy.

You're out of your mind.

Okay.

And just because you came back early,

doesn't mean I will.

When I leave here, I'm...

I'm not coming back

into your life.

Did you?

Did you have any money?

Bullshit. I am tired of it.

I am a woman.

I cook, I clean, I wash.

That's it. It's your deal.

Now, I'm leaving here.

I'm out of here.

Do you hear me? F*** off.

Shut the f*** up!

Hey.

Hey, Janice.

Lewis is looking for you.

I know, thank you.

He's got his friends in there.

You look rough.

You've got blood on your shirt.

Huh?

Would you guys

shut the hell up already?

It's 1:
00 in the morning!

Thank you, Janice.

I'm going in.

It's not gonna work.

Would you shut up

for two seconds?

Damn it, man,

give me a hand here.

- What's going on?

- Cable's out.

No, outside in the hallway.

This sucks.

It was the best game,

probably there ever was.

Where's Lewis?

He's in the bathroom.

Jerry? Jerry, put

the bat down and help me.

First, the bat doesn't

get put down, okay?

Jesus Christ.

Where have you been?

I went to have a drink

with the girls.

I tried calling you,

but my phone's dead.

And then I tried calling you

from the bar,

but the phone

was dead there too, so...

Jerry, what are you doing?

Give me the duct...

I decided I was ready to leave,

so I just finally left.

- Duct tape.

- But I don't...

Reach your hand out

and give me the tape.

This was to be used

in case of a chemical attack.

Jerry, Jerry, Jerry,

Jerry, Jerry.

What's going on?

Why isn't anything working?

Everybody's out in the hallway.

Is your phone working?

No. I tried calling you.

I didn't know where you were.

I'm sorry.

I should have called you

before I left

the restaurant.

- That was stupid.

- Give me the duct...

Who'd you have drinks with?

Donna and Emily.

Where'd you go?

Who's Donna?

Starbar. Donna's new,

she just started yesterday.

- She's a waitress?

- Hostess.

What did you have?

What'd I have?

What did you have to drink?

Gin and tonic

and a shot of tequila.

You got something

on your shirt.

Yeah.

What is it?

Heh. It's barbecue sauce.

Or something, I don't know.

You reek of perfume.

I don't want to smell

like a restaurant.

I feel gross.

You know how much

I love you.

You know how much

I love you.

You can look at me

when you say that.

Did you pay

the cable bill, man?

I'm having a moment

with my wife.

Excuse me.

Why don't you go wash up?
