outta that bush?

Ah, shit. Who's got
the radio tonight?

All right, fine.

I got it.

- I got it, I got it.
- Thanks, babe.

All right, guys, I think
it's tied to tuck in.

Hey, David, enjoy that
overnight duty, you know?

Hey, would you mind covering
for him for like...

twenty minutes?

Thirty minutes.

Oh.

- Yeah, okay, sure, that's fine.
- Thirty minutes?

Take your time.

I love you, David.

I love you so much.

Call me Andrew.

- Andrew?
- Yeah.

Oh. You like that, Andy, huh?

You like it
when I call you Andrew?

I love it.

He's getting more
stubborn, isn't he?

Yeah.

It's nice, isn't it?

It's almost like
the old days, huh?

Yeah.

I was starting to forget.

We need to make a run.

I know.

Afternoon, Miss.

Can you take
the sunglasses off please?

Is this an official
volunteers checkpoint?

It is.

Papers, ma'am.

Got a haircut recently.

Neck check.

Miss.

Need another minute?

Am I sensing
a little attitude, Miss?

She's clean.

You're good to go.

Enjoy your day.

Attention, all goods

must be purchased
with a valid business card.

Cash will no longer be accepted.

Get the fuck off me.

Listen... listen...

You know,
you'd look a lot prettier

with no teeth, motherfucker.

No. No, no, no, no.
Blow his fucking cock off.

That's every faggot's
worst nightmare.

Stop.

Come on, we're having fun.

You're pretty easy.

What are you doing
near the no-fly zone,

you little fucker?

Don't worry,
it's about to hit the perimeter.

Look.

Help.

- What?
- What?

I got somebody in the back.
Need to get him inside.

- What?
- He's hurt.

Zabi, open the door.

Yeah, yeah. I...

- You got him?
- Yeah. Grab him there.

Try to hold that wound.

- Got it.
- Try to hold onto that.

- I got his legs. I got his legs.
- Let's go.

- Okay. Okay.
- Shit.

What happened? Do you know?

Easy.

Easy. All right.

What the fuck is going on?

Who the fuck is that?

Okay. Zabi, come here,
come here. Right here.

Hold just like that.
I'm gonna get my stuff.

Oh, God.

Don't look at it.
Just keep the pressure on.

David, hurry up.

Oh, my God, Sarah, what the hell
happened to your head?

I'm fine,
just go move the truck.

Move the truck? What the fuck
are you talking about?

Who the fuck is that?

Okay, okay,
you ready? Thank you.

- Is he gonna be okay?
- I don't know. I have to look at these wounds.

Zabi...

Zabi. Go move the truck,
we might have company.

Company? Sarah,
what the hell did you do?

They are gonna kill us.

Just say it was my fault.

It is your fault.

Oh, it's David,
I have to get this.

- Zahabiya, hurry up.
- Just, cover for me.

- Hey, babe.
- Hey. Everything okay?

I have to work a double...

It's not safe anymore.

- We have to get Zahabiya out of here.
- No

David's right.

We have a very small window

before those volunteers
you fucking shot are found.

Now is the time to move.

They could've been
found already.

They could have sent
scanners out

to cover every square inch
of this place,

setting up roadblocks
on every route out of here.

We need to leave.

No, we stick to the plan.
We stay with the radio.

Because it has
done what for us, exactly?

We could hear
from them any day now.

Yeah, or it could be
another month.

Do you really wanna do this
for another month?

We don't have a choice.

What about the dog, huh?

How long do you think
you can keep

that fucking charade up?

Just feeding him
for weeks on end forcing...

We're here
because you trust me, right?

- Yes, of course I trust...
- Right?

Yes.

That means we stay put.

We are on lock down,
which means no more fishing,

no more praying on the porch,
no more runs,

no more smoke breaks.

We have been way too casual.

We need to stick to the routine.

I am the only one
who has done this.

So, I need you to trust me.

This will work.

We just have to stick
to the plan.

What are we going to do
about the barcode on our couch?

You always do this.

You care way too much
about other people.

You need to protect us
and our friends.

Jay you're hurting my head.

You don't even know him.

I know he's branded.

Just like Zabi.

What's one more person
on this last run?

It's just one more.

Sarah.

Stop.

You can't save everybody.

I can try.

I need to take a shower

We had a no-show
for the 3:45 slot.

Just got the go-ahead
to send the authorities

to that address.

Come on, dude.
It's all right.

Stand up.

Come with me.

I'm gonna go feed the dog.

I'll be right back
to relieve you.

Okay,
just be quick about it

before I nod off again.

Hi. You're up.

Oh, hey.

How are you feeling?

I feel okay.

You hungry? Want some coffee?

Uh. Coffee would be
great, actually.

Okay.

I'm Zahabiya.

Did you sleep well?

Yeah, I did, really well.

Oddly enough.

It's good, no.
I'll see you in a little bit.

Here you go.

Uh. We don't have any sugar...

or milk, actually.
Sorry.

It's fine.

So, uh,

you're feeling
a little bit better.

That's really good.

Oh, thanks to you,
I guess.

Are you in an EMT
or doctor or something?

Or, you were?

I... I was a nurse.

I was studying to get my MD
when... everything fell apart.

Well, either way,
could've fooled me.

Mm, here, here, here. Easy.

Victims'
bodies have been located,

and volunteers' families
are being notified.

Continuing to collect evidence

from the scene.

Potential ID of suspect

is being circulated.

I appreciate you all
helping me.

I'll be outta your space
as soon as I can.

I'm sorry for being
such a burden.

You're not a burden.

So...
...this is our radio.

We're waiting on coordinates
from my contacts in Canada.

They're all working to find
us a safe crossing point

to get over the border.

Those coordinates
will only come through this.

So, this radio is our lifeline.

I've done this before

with a few
other groups...

...but this time,
we're all going

to get out for good.

Uh. We man the radio in shifts,
all day, all night.

So there's never a moment
when someone

isn't listening to it.

We could get noticed
at any moment, any day now.

You wanna get the fuck out
of this country?

Obviously a lot of controversy

...around the volunteers.

Uh. You know,
today's your opportunity

to try to explain to our viewers
what you guys represent?

Well, I mean, this is a group
of concerned citizens

who all agree the key

to a healthy society
starts at home.

You know,
in... in your neighborhood,

in your communities,
and...

...illegals are still pouring
in with their drugs

and their bombs and their...
their trucks

- used as battering rams...
- TV off.

More stringent measures
must be taken.

What type of measures
are you suggesting?

Well, we need
to start self-policing.

We need to know
who our neighbors are.

We need to protect
our children, our culture,

our way of life. And eventually,
this organization

will have a volunteers group
in every major city.

Like a... a militia?

I mean, it essentially...

...sounds like
you're building out a militia.

No, I... I wouldn't jump to that.

We're just trying
to embody the change

we wanna see in our communities.

You mean maintain the status
quo in your communities?

It sounds like
you don't want change...

All right, look,
you understood my meaning.

You're... you're being
pedantic now.

Your followers, um,
they have a uniform.

Uh. The... the orange?

This is a uniform?
No.

And your members
consist of predominantly

white men.

Uh. Excuse me, Lori,
we encourage anyone

who believes
in the cause to join.

Now, I can't rightly say
exactly what the breakdown

- of our members look like, but...
- You know, actually, I can, um,

I have the figures right here.

This is... Yeah, actually can... can we just put this on screen

for our viewers?

Uh. As you can see, 89 percent
of your group polled

identified as avid
gun rights activists.

Yeah. I've seen the,
uh, so-called report

you're talking about.

Who, uh, did the polling
for that, exactly?

You know, there actually,
there've also been reports

of certain volunteer factions
being continuously linked

- to violent hate crimes?
- Those reports are false.

Completely fabricated.

Do you have any comments
on these numbers?

I don't. They are fake.

I think...

You know I... I think,
respectfully,

I think we're done talking here.

Did you decide on a name yet?

I've always liked the name Isko.

- Isko?
- Mm-hmm.

I don't know.

You kinda seem
like a Justin to me.

Oh, no. Ew, gross.

That is like the least
Filipino name I've heard.

Other than like, Brett.

Who cares? You can be
whatever you wanna be.

I do.

Don't whitewash me,
girlfriend. I care.

Okay. Okay.

Um...

and you studied
to be an architect.

Mm-hmm.
- But now you work as a...

As a, uh...
...project manager

at a queer nonprofit
organization

that, uh,
houses homeless, LGBT kids.

- Uh. Wow, okay.
- Mm-hmm.

That is incredibly specific.

It is.

And then, you know, we have
to figure out the basic stuff.

You know, birthday, address,
social insurance number,

shit like that.

Fine.
But I'm sticking with Isko.

Uh. Hey, you should probably
stay off your feet.

No, I've been laying
down for, like, two days.

I need to move.
My ass is killing me.

What is going on here?

Who are these guys?

Can't sleep either, huh?

Babe. Yeah, I told him
he should be asleep.

Yeah, you...
you should be asleep too.

Quiet shift?

Yeah, as always.

- Well, up early.
- Might as well...

...feed the dog.

Oh, you guys have a dog?

Oh, I love dogs.

If you're staying here,

you should probably
learn how to do this too.

Stay close. Watch your head.

What about my water?

Take one of those
water bottles.

Roll it across the floor to him.

Who's this faggot?

If you want your waste bucket
emptied this week,

you won't use that language.

We had everything lined up.

The safe house,
the supply chain,

but the location was compromised
when we arrived.

Sarah thought fast.
We ended up here at his house.

I don't understand.

A volunteer's
property's a no-fly zone.

They get to keep
their freedom of privacy

as upstanding Americans
for their dedicated service.

Hey, I'm sorry. And you said,
this is his house?

Yeah, we're hiding
in plain sight.

Oh, my God.

I don't know

how you haven't strangled
that guy yet.

I wouldn't be able
to help myself.

We're not gonna hurt him,
we just... We need him right now.

When we leave, we'll let him go.

I said lockdown, Goddammit.
Get your asses inside.

You want me
to do the check-in?

No, I got it.

Gabe, check in.

Gabe, you limpdick motherfucker,
where the fuck are you?

Check in.

Tag me in.

Kept the seat warm for ya.

Thanks.

Take a load off.
We'll be here a while.

How you feeling, babe?

Like I got pistol whipped
in the back of the head.

Did you have David
take another look at you?

Yeah, he says I probably have
a brain hemorrhage.

That's not funny.

You know, we still
haven't unload the supplies

from the truck,
including the ibuprofen

you clearly need Sarah bear.

We shouldn't risk it.

It's been
nearly two days.

We haven't heard
peep on the radio.

We need those supplies...

- Jay.
- And I need my hot sauce.

Please, you're hurting
my head, again.

I'm going.

Feeding an extra mouth
is a burden...

that we do not need.

You are so paranoid.

I am not paranoid,
I'm cautious.

You always get like this
with new people.

- No, I don't.
- Yes, you do.

You get closed off
and paranoid and grumpy.

He is not a new person,
David, he's a total stranger.

He's branded, and we are trying
to get out just like him.

I'm just saying, be cautious
with the guy, all right?

Stop being all chummy and shit.

This plan is complicated
enough as it is

without having some
unvetted gay guy

piggybacking his way across
the border on our dime.

- (METAL CLATTERING
- Jesus, now you sound like them.

Ah, shut up.

Just be nice.

Okay.

We already gave him
the option to come with us.

And Sarah trusts him.

So, that should be all
that you need to know.

I love you to death,
David, but you're wrong here.

He could be
a liability.

Welp, at least Sarah got booze.

Pick your...

Spades.
So, those are your cards.

Um. Spades are trump.
You have to follow suit.

So if someone plays
a Heart, you play Heart.

If someone plays a Diamond,
you play Diamond.

You're in teams.
It's you and Jarret versus...

- We're gonna kill it, 'cause I have a great hand.
- Me and Zabi.

That's not true. Zabi is one
of the great card sharks

of all time.

- Whoa.
- Didn't know that, did you?

If someone plays a Heart, you gotta play a Heart,

if it's Diamonds...
Let's just play.

- Okay.
- We'll tell you

- when you fucked it up.
- All right, starting off.

Here we go.

- Three of clubs.
- Wow, that's powerful.

- It's...
- A powerful first move.

I hope everyone's
paying attention.

Okay, kid's got moves.

Dance that pain away, boy.

Go, go, go, go.

- Go, go, go, go.
- Yes. Oh.

You okay?

Huh?

What are you doing? It's early.

Uh. David.
It's actually really late.

No, it's not late.
Just shut up.

Arjay, drink, hmm?

Solemnly swear

to always hold hate
in my heart for...

niggers... spics.

Well,
I think we should all just...

...get some rest.

David...

Aren't you on radio tonight?

Fuck.

Um...

- can I switch with someone?
- With who?

Um...

I can take it.

No, you can't. I have
to train you first. But...

- No, no.
- ...in this place we...

I can teach him. Okay?

You sure?

Yeah, why don't you
get some rest.

- Okay. Be nice.
- Okay.

Paranoid grumpy.

- Okay.
- Yeah?

Yeah.

- Night.
- Night.

Let's go.

These are our radios.
Our walkie, the CB.

The walkie is always
on channel three.

That's the volunteer's channel.

The CB,
you don't fuckin' touch it.

You just listen.

Every 15 minutes
you put an entry in the log.

It keeps you alert and shows
you're not fucking us all

by falling asleep.

Got it. Uh.
What do I write down, exactly?

Whatever you want.

Just make sure
it keeps you awake.

We can't miss this.

Once we get those coordinates
from Sarah's contacts,

we have a one hour window
to make it

to the rendezvous point
before the window closes,

for good.

You understand
how important this is?

Yeah, of course I understand.

If you were to hear something
tonight... anything tonight,

you write down exactly
what you heard, word for word,

legible, no mistakes.

Okay, so, you mean
if I hear the coordinates

or if I hear
the volunteers again?

Once you write it down,
you move as fast as you can,

and you wake us all up,

and we book our asses
to the rendezvous.

Do you understand all that, bud?

Or do you want me
to write you a manual?

What's your deal?

What's yours?

I already told you.

- Yeah.
- Mm-hmm.

Yeah, you already told me.

You're just some little kid,
and you're looking to get out.

Aren't we all?

I don't care,

one way or another
what your story is, Arjay.

But you were never supposed
to be a part of mine.

So do not fuck this up.

Or you can wave goodbye
to your free ride

across the border.

Oh, I thought you forgot
about me.

What's for dinner?

I was gonna give
this cigarette to you.

Like I promised yesterday.

Until you called
my new friend a faggot.

If you'd like to apologize,
I might reconsider.

Well, he is, isn't he?

A faggot? No, he isn't.

He's gay.

I'm a Muslim.

You're a white volunteer
who wants us dead.

No, I don't want you dead,
you're a lady.

Well, maybe the faggot
'cause he's a dude.

I just don't wanna
have to look at you.

'Cause I'm a shit-skin?

Remember when you used
to call me that?

I never called you that.

Yes, you did.
You used to call me a shit-skin.

And you stopped.
Why did you stop?

I definitely
never called you that.

You called me a shit-skin
and you saw how it hurt me...

and then you stopped.

It was easy to stop, wasn't it?

Took a while to get there,
but we were making progress.

Yeah, we were till that...

bald bitch came
and busted my lip again today.

You know, she doesn't have
to smash my face in

every time she wants me
to do a radio check-in.

She could just ask me nicely.

I'll talk to her about that.

It's important we're civil
with each other.

Civil?

What the fuck you talk...

I'm chained to a post
in my own fucking barn.

Shittin' in a bucket!

Civil?

That fuckin' bald cunt's
got some serious rage issues

and she's taking it out on me.

The way you talk to us,

you're not doing
yourself any favors.

Hey there.

Sarah said for you to go to bed.

I'm radio-trained now.

Are you okay?

You ever stop to think about...

these ideas that you believe

and this cause
that you're behind,

that maybe
it's just... all wrong?

What do you mean?

I mean, everything
that the volunteers do...

and say,

how it affects other people.
What if it's just...

- wrong?
- It's not.

But... what if?

What kind of pain
were you going through?

When you started believing
everything that you believe?

I don't...

...I don't know
what you're asking me.

I'm just asking,

when you started feeling
this way.

What happened to you?

I think
I don't wanna talk anymore.

I don't feel
like talking.

You... you gonna give me
that cigarette or not?

You're a really
good dancer, Arjay.

Okay.

It's like...
it's like you don't care what

anyone else thinks about you.

I don't, or I try not
to at least.

I wish I was like
that.

Hey...

...what's the matter, David?

I'm...

I'm really glad you're here.

Why do you think
it is we can't talk about this?

Why do we always
get stuck in the same place?

There's nothing to figure out.

You don't have to figure
out my fucking brain.

I already told you,
I wanna preserve my culture,

my way of life, my country.

Your existence, people like you,

they're actively
replacing my entire race.

That's just a fact.

It's the largest genocide
this world has ever seen.

You ever stop to think
that that's wrong?

I just... I'm trying
to understand all this... rage.

Allowing you to exist
is a threat to the white race.

I hate this fuckin'
conversation.

'Cause you're afraid
of having it.

Shut the fuck up!

Shut the fuck up!

Do you ever regret it?

Regret what?

Our stupid tattoo.

Are you kidding me, man?

Of course not.
That was an epic night.

Oh, no, no, no.
I'm so fucking stupid.

- Hey.
- I'm so fucking stupid.

- It's okay.
- No, it's not, no.

I'm sorry,

- I'm so sorry.
- No, you don't need to apologize.

I didn't mean to.
You're not a...

I'm really fucking
drunk right now.

And I didn't mean to.

I'm... I'm not, um...

I'll see you tomorrow.

Hey.

Give the faggot
a goodnight kiss for me.

It's exhausting.

Isn't it?

David?

David.

- Hey.
- Hey.

How's it going?

He just came down here
and fell asleep.

My silly boy.
I'll take him upstairs.

Everything okay with the radio?

Yeah, great.

Any questions?

Hmm.

You'll do great.

Hey, come on.
Let's go to bed.

I'll just sleep here.
I just got outta bed.

Okay. You're okay. It's okay.

That's it.

Shh.

Oh, easy. Easy.

Don't worry man,
I got it.

Table talking's fine.

Just don't play that one.

I can. Stop looking at my cards.

- It's very rude.
- What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna... I'm gonna do this.

- Hey, buddy.
- Hi, honey.

Come here.
Oh, what's going' on, hmm?

- Could he be any more adorable?
- Hmm?

- Impossible.
- What happened?

- I fell.
- You wanna tell me a secret?

- No.
- I heard something outside.

You heard something?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Want Daddy
to put you back to bed?

- Need me to investigate?
- Take care of all the monsters for you?

Yeah? Should I go check?

- Yeah? All right, come here.
- Somebody's bed time.

- You know what, give your Mom a kiss.
- Here you go.

Give Mommy a kiss.

- Oh!
- Thank you.

All right, here we go. You ready?

Oh!

- Love you.
- Goodnight.

What do you say
we have a sleepover, huh?

What's going on?

Oh, God.

Sarah.

Get him away
from the window.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Volunteer
number 9947, check in.

Nine-nine-four-seven,
I said check in.

Jarret, Jarret, wake up.

They're talking to us.

Uh. The volunteers
are asking 9947?

Get back to the radio, now.

9947,
Rise and shine, buttercup.

Jesus Christ, keep it down,
asshole. 9947 reporting.

Five minutes out, coming in now.

Uh. I'm still
in my underwear, man.

David, Zabi, code red.

What's going on?

No time to talk,
just get downstairs. Let's go.

Put your fuckin' skirt on,

motherfucker. We're activated.
Gonna raise some hell.

Fuck yeah, man. I'll be ready.

Fuck.

Let's go, let's go.

Arjay, downstairs, come on.

Get in the basement. Let's go.

Sarah, should we bring
the dog up?

No. Uh. Go to his room.
Put on his clothes.

What? Put on his clothes?

Yeah, you just answered as 9947,
you need to be him.

No, Sarah, fuck that.

You get his ass out here
and you tell him

that we're gonna shoot him

if he doesn't make
his friends go away.

We shoot him or them,
we're dead.

Sarah, we did not plan
for something like this.

That's why I am making a plan.

The... they probably don't know
who Volunteer 9947 is

or they would've used his name.
They... they always do.

- Probably?
- Just... We don't have time for this.

- Please, go put on his clothes.
- Fuck.

Zabi?

- Give me a hand with this.
- What is happening?

The volunteers are
coming. Keep your mouth shut.

Sarah, take the walkie.

Yeah. Make a pot of coffee,
act normal.

I'm gonna keep the dog
from barking.

I don't know
if this is a good plan,

making coffee.
What am I gonna offer them some?

I need the gun.

I need it
for that piece of shit.

Well, then use a fucking knife,
I need the gun.

Oh, my God, okay.

Fuck.

Shit.

- Help!
- Shut the fuck up.

Help!

- Help!
- Shut the fuck up.

Shut the fuck up right now.

Stop screaming.

You Victor? 9947?

Guilty as charged.

Grab your shit.
We gotta move fast.

Some queer killed two

of our brothers
not ten miles down the road.

Shut up.

Gathering any of us
we can along the way,

building a little hunting party.

Gonna have ourselves a fag drag.

Nobody kills two of our men
without the hammer coming down.

Get in the fucking truck.

Yeehaw! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!

Giddyup, giddyup.

They're gonna fuckin' kill him.

He's smart. He'll figure it out.

Sarah, what do we do?

We're gonna go after him, right?

Why didn't anyone plug
this back in?

Sarah?

Sarah, he needs us.
We have to go after him.

He's doing
what he needs to do

and he always comes back to me.

Isn't this time
a little fucking different?

We stay on task,
we stay on routine.

That's all that matters.

Who cares
about that fucking radio?

They could've called
when it was unplugged.

Fuck the radio.
They're gonna kill him!

Stop being emotional,
I'm trying to focus.

What did you do to him?

I kept him quiet.

- What are you doing?
- Arjay, get outta the way.

No, I know Jarret is your friend
and you love him,

but you can't go after him
alone. Don't be stupid.

I'm gonna keep my distance.

I just need to see
that he's okay.

So, move.

- Get out.
- No, it's not safe.

You're not thinking clearly, David.

It is safe. It is safe for me,
it is safe.

I'm not branded,
unlike you.

We're not that different.

Yeah, except that I can pass
and you can't.

So, get the fuck out.

I understand being emotional

and making
stupid decisions, okay?

It's been my entire life.

But what you're about to do
is gonna get you both killed.

No, I can't...

I know how much you care
about him,

but you're not leaving.

I won't let you.

Why are you
doing this to me?

I know how you feel.

Shut up.

- You don't understand how I feel.
- Yes.

You do not know how I feel.

- I do know.
- You don't know how I feel. You don't...

David. David, David, David.

I understand exactly how you feel. Okay?

- I'm... I'm sorry.
- Hey. It's okay.

David, that's not what
I came here for.

Sorry.

Well, fuck it then,
you're gonna come with me.

No, David, David.

Come here.

It's okay.

I know if I apologize,
it won't mean anything to you,

but it doesn't change the fact
that I'm sorry that happened.

It won't happen again.

I won't let it.

You're outta your mind
if you think anything you say

to baldy's gonna have an effect.

Is there anything I can do
to show you I truly am sorry?

To make you trust me again?

No.

Never seen this photo.

You have a beautiful family.

I'm gonna leave this here.

I'll see you for dinner?

I just want a beer.

Get me a beer, I'll forget
your friend's a cunt.

Any volunteers in the area

come down to the quarry.
We got some snowflakes to melt.

Fuck you, you bastards!

Fuck.

Okay, it's a big day, Reese.

You should cover up.

I don't like
that he's down there alone.

Arjay can handle it.

He can also handle David,
apparently.

I'm glad he knocked some sense
into you.

If you push it like that again,
I'm gonna to lock you

- in the fucking barn.
- Okay.

- You could've blown the whole operation.
- Okay, okay. I get it.

Fuck.

- Arjay.
- Absolutely quiet.

Your weapon.

We have a serious problem.

Jesus, this is insane.

Well, David,
I think what is insane

is staying someplace
where people might attack you

if you're holding Zabi's hand.

You are being paranoid, man.

There's no way
that this can get any worse.

Somebody...

...someone will do something.

- David...
- What?

...they're branding people now.

The group that Sarah
has with her right now...

...they have them.

Just think about it, okay?

Really, think about it.

How'd you know my brand?

Got it from your pantry.

Ah, of course you did.

Ah.

David says you've been
on the radio most of the day,

you should take a break.

Why don't you tell me
what happened to you out there,

and I'll tell you
if I wanna take a break.

They've gotten bigger.

They're growing.
They're more organized.

And?

And we need to move right now.

Bad idea.

Sarah.

It's been months.

This operation has dried up.

We are waiting on a ghost.

We promised David and Zabi
that we would get them across

and that is what
we're going to do.

We were positioned as outpost
for nearly three weeks.

Just watching one road
out of the mountains

for Taliban fighters. Hmm.

During the day,
it was burning fucking hot.

It was freezing cold at night.
I mean, it just sucked.

Twenty-four-seven,
eyes on the same

stupid fucking road.

Sounds pretty boring.

Yeah, it was more boring
than you could imagine.

I had no idea you served.

Two tours.

Thank you.

For what?

Serving.

Wanting to help the world.

Hmm.

I had to feed wife
and kids somehow.

I don't know
that I helped all that much.

You must have.

Thank you for your service.

Well, it's been a long time
since anybody said that.

Y... you remember
when we used to thank the troops

for the service? People even had
stickers and shit.

Yeah, I remember.

Feels like a long time ago now.

Something tells me
you never had a bumper sticker.

Ah, well.

Didn't get much thanks
from ole...

Uncle Sam either.

What was it like
when you came back?

Couldn't sleep.

Couldn't find work.
Couldn't get treatment.

Couldn't talk to my wife,
it was fuckin' great.

Where is she now?

I don't know.

Took off with the kids.

You know...

probably couldn't put up
with me anymore.

I don't blame her.

I'm sorry.

Well...
...shit happens.

You got another one?

So, all it took you to chill out
was a couple beers?

Should've asked for one
a month ago.

Yeah, well...

baldy would've just cracked it
over my fucking skull.

Please.

Please.

Please!

We can go home.

We can go home
and start over, you and me.

No, we can't.

You signed up for this. You knew
what we were getting into.

- I'm scared.
- Okay, Sarah?

I'm really scared
and I want to go home.

I know, we all are.

But you cannot let them
see that.

You have to stay strong
for them.

We need to put our family first.

We don't have a family anymore.

We can start a new one.

We already did.

They're upstairs.

Why did you join?

What, the army?

No, the volunteers.
Was it after your wife left?

Well, it's...

it's okay if you don't...

you don't wanna
talk about it.

No, it's okay.

Yeah.

It was after they left.

Because... you were...

lonely?

Yeah.

I guess I, uh,
was a little lonely, yeah.

And you wanted to protect
your country?

- Like you had done before.
- Yeah.

From who?

People like you.

- People like me?
- Well, not you, exactly.

Uh...

What sort of people then?

Well just, you know, uh...

yeah, Muslims, foreigners,
illegals, types of people.

- But I'm a Muslim.
- So, uh...

Yeah. Well, yeah.

I wanna protect it
from people like you then.

Just p... people
that don't belong here.

But I was born here.

Well I said... not you, exactly.

But people like you.

So, if protecting your country,

your culture,
from people like me means...

...tracking me
everywhere I go

and locking me up, w...

would you do that to me?

Can we go back
to just talking?

We are talking.

Well, fuck, I mean, let's talk
about something else.

It's killing my buzz.

Okay.

Am I the first Muslim
you've ever met?

'Course not,
I served in Afghanistan.

But am I the first Muslim
you've ever really,

really talked to?

You kiddin' me?

I trained ANA recruits outside
the wire for weeks on end.

I was with 'em every single day.
I... I turned 'em into soldiers.

So, you must have
gotten close with...

some of them?

Yeah.

Yeah, sure but...

...some of 'em were...

...pretty cool guys, definitely.

Yeah but, good guys or not,
I had to watch my back.

Do you want me dead, Gabe?

No.

I don't. Of course I don't.

'Cause those volunteers
that showed up today...

I'm certain,

if they had found me,
they would've killed me.

You heard 'em, didn't you?

I heard 'em.

You don't seem
like one of them.

Yeah well...
...I'm not.

Most of those guys
are just a bunch of assholes

- playing dress up.
- You know...

Never served,
never did much of anything. I...

I don't... I don't care
for most of 'em,

to be honest with you.

But you see what they're doing,

- the people they're hurting.
- Those people...

...they're like me.

No, I never hurt anybody.

But people are hurting now.
People are dying... now.

Now.

I never thought it would turn
into what it did.

Neither did I.

I'll tell you one thing,

um, when I joined...

I definitely didn't see myself
hanging out in my barn with you.

I never thought I'd be complicit
in locking you up

in your barn.

Never thought
I'd have a conversation...

like this with a... volunteer.

And I never thought I'd share
a beer with a Muslim.

I never... I never thought
I'd have to leave my home.

I never thought that...

I would see my family...

blown apart because...

a volunteer placed
a bomb in our mosque.

I didn't know
that happened to you.

It did.

I'm sorry it did.

Don't you wish
that this would all just...

go away?

I mean, wouldn't that be nice?

Yeah, it would.

I don't think it's too late.

I'll drink to that.

Yeah, I'm gonna put these
in the fridge next time.

Are you even supposed
to be drinking?

No.

Goes against my beliefs.

Fuck yeah.

Finish it off.

I'll see you tomorrow.

In sha'Allah.

In sha'Allah.

I was about to go
do a safety check,

you've been gone for so long.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to scare you.

Have you been drinking?

Uh. Had a couple beers, yeah.

You drank with him?

With the dog?

We're not gonna call him
that anymore.

From now on we use his name...

- Gabe.
- No, we don't.

I don't wanna use his name.
Why would I wanna use his name?

What exactly is going on?

What are you doing with him,
Zabi?

Talking.

I'm trying to understand.

What? What are you trying
to understand?

Why he's such a piece of shit
to us?

He's ignorant and angry...

but he's not entirely bad.

He's still a... a person, David.

No, Zahabiya, no.

He's trying to get
into your head.

He's totally playing you.

- You know that I'm right.
- I don't think you are.

I'm sorry it makes you angry,
but I... I don't.

Yeah it... it does make me angry.

That you are out there
in that barn hour after hour.

What are you trying to do,
convert him?

You can't.

There's no middle ground
with the volunteers.

They see black
and they see white.

You're wrong.

I talked to him tonight
about my family,

and he said he was sorry.

It wasn't an act.

He wasn't pretending.

Oh, don't be stupid, please.

He just wants to get
outta that barn.

He's not different than us,
he's just on the other side.

If I could change his mind.

- If I could change...
- You can't, you can't...

- ...one person's mind...
- ...change his mind.

- ...then maybe more people...
- Just... just fucking stop it, all right?

Stop trying to find
his humanity.

He doesn't have any.

I have more reason
to hate him than you do.

My family was slaughtered.

David, slaughtered,
my entire...

- family.
- Our family.

Yeah, but I can't bring myself
to hate him.

I need to convince myself
that the world isn't shit,

that there's still
good people in it.

Because if I...
if I don't believe that

then what is the point
of being part of it?

Tell me.

Just...

David,

I hope this correspondence
finds you well.

I'm pleased to inform you

that according
to this year's census,

you're eligible to have
your student loan debt

entirely abolished in exchange
for a onetime donation

to my election campaign.

Hey, hey, it's okay.

- Jarret...
- Come with me. Don't talk.

Okay?

Come on.

Jarret, are you gonna tell me
what happened yesterday?

Or you just gonna float there?

You should come in. It's nice.

I'm cold.

Are you not cold?

It's freezing.

But it's nice.

I gotta cleanse
my eyeballs.

What happened today,
it was a mistake.

I stopped you from leaving,
that's all.

You, a... and your secrets. Uh...

I don't want any part of it.

Whoa.

Did you get your tattoo removed?

Uh. Yeah. Couple a years ago.

Uh. Ouch. I'm not sure
if I should be offended or not.

Why the hell did you do that?

Well, uh,
it just always made me think

too much about that day.

The day that we...
When we found 'em.

Yeah, so?

So, I always hated myself
when I thought about it.

Ouch, man...

now I'm actually offended.

Why would you hate yourself
for something we did

when we were drunk
and stupid teenagers?

Do you ever think
about that night?

I remember it,
if that's what you mean.

What do you remember about it?

Why would you get it removed?

That shit doesn't work, man.
I can still see it there.

What do you remember about that night?

- Tell me.
- Remember the same thing that you remember.

Tell me.

Tell you what?

You can't even fucking say it.

David...

I remember, David, okay?

I remember, you remember.

Do you want me to say it?

Would it make you feel better
if I said it?

I remember.

Is that what this is about?

You hear something?

Don't make a sound.
It won't see you.

Every time I look
at that tattoo...

...I would think of that night.

And I would think
about how it ended,

and wonder
why it made me feel so bad.

And then the volunteer shit
started happening and I was...

...and I was...

I was scared and I just wanted
those feelings to go away.

So I...

I fucking got it removed.

David...

- David, hey.
- Not that it helped.

Hey, Dave.

I love you.

But you are in your head.

We were just kids.

And nobody blamed you

for hiding that part of yourself...

...when our country
started falling apart.

But I am really...

not the one that you gotta talk
to about this.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know.

I'm scared.

I know.

I don't want her to think
less of me.

David, hey, hey. Hey.

I am so fuckin' sorry...

...that this whole thing
is such a mess.

But we are going
to get out of here.

I swear, okay?

We're gonna leave tonight.

Okay?

As soon as the sun goes down.

We're not gonna wait
on coordinates anymore,

- all right?
- Okay.

Okay?

We need to ditch Arjay.

We need to put the dog down.

And I need you, David, okay?
I need you to stop crying...

and help me, okay?

Help me, please, convince Zabi
and Sarah it's time to go.

Okay?

- Come on.
- Okay.

Come on. Get in, get in.

Come here.

Come here. It's okay,
it's okay, it's okay.

It's okay, it's okay.

It's okay.

Zabi.

Hey.

You stop feeding
that piece of shit.

Where were you guys?
What's going on?

We're leaving, tonight.

Now, I know
you don't wanna do this,

but we all have to do things
that we don't wanna do.

So, you're gonna go in there

and take care
of your pet project.

Put a bullet
in his fucking head,

and meet us inside
for a group meeting.

You got it?

David...

David, come on!

David!

You heard that.

I'm sorry, I...

I don't know
that I can protect you.

I can help you.

I tr... I trust you.

Hey.

Zabi, if you trust me too,
I can help you.

I can sh...

I can show you
across the border.

If you let me go,

I can show you
across the border.

I... I know how to get there.

I'm sorry.
They'll never believe that.

Jarret will never believe that.

You still have to try.

I wanna see my family again.

If you don't,
he's gonna kill me.

There is a simple way
not to fuck this up

and that is to stay put.

Why do we have to keep having
the same conversation

over and over again?

This is not like
your other runs.

- This time, it's different.
- How?

Things have changed.

These aren't just groups
of fucking zeros...

going out,
looking for a good time,

calling in a couple of illegals.

These are organized hunters
with assault rifles

out for blood.

Yeah, well, things have been
escalating for months.

We found a group of people
yesterday, trying to cross.

They brought them to a field.

And they beat them to death.

They tied them with chains
to their trucks...

to drag them around
this field for hours.

They lit their bodies on fire.

Sarah, they lit
their bodies on fire.

So, you're proving
my fucking point.

We just can't...

- ...we can't go running out there like idiots.
- I had to kick.

I had to kick a woman's face in
and I had to like it, Sarah.

I had to like it.

I need...

We need to leave tonight

and that is Goddamn
fucking final.

Okay. Okay. Let's just calm down
a second, okay?

We're all gonna figure this out
together as a group.

Now, just listen.

And I know you're not gonna
like this, Jarret,

but Gabe, the volunteer,
he wants to help us.

Don't even get me started.

And you?

You need to leave.

David and I have talked,
and you're a liability.

Jarret says
that there are photos

of you all over town.

From where?

A checkpoint?

I don't know,
but you have to leave, Arjay.

I'm sorry.

He is a leech.

We are not getting rid
of anyone.

Yeah, apparently not.

We can't even get rid
of the fucking asshole

- at the barn because he's become your buddy.
- Jarret!

Zabi, who's on?
No one's on the radio.

Sarah. Sarah,
nobody is coming to save us.

Nobody.

Can you just wake up?

Jarret.

- Fuck it.
- Jarret,

you wanna plan, I have one.

Gabe knows how to get us
across the border safely.

He's willing to show us

in exchange
for letting him go...

...unharmed, which...

is what we were planning, right?
That was the original plan.

He wants to help us.
This might be our best chance.

You can come with us
tonight or you can stay

and you can wait to be dragged
out by a fuckin' chain.

Is that what you think
of me too?

That I'm a leech.

No.

Arjay... of course not.

Everything was fine
before you showed up.

I don't think that's true.

But you know what?

You tell yourself
what you need to

in order to survive this.

Arjay.

Wait!

Arjay!

I'm not going back.
Please, don't ask.

Okay, but...

where are you
going to go?

What are you going to do?

You don't have to leave.

You're part
of our family now.

Our fucked up little family.

Please, Zahabiya.

I don't wanna cause
anymore trouble.

I should've never stayed in the first place.

Please, let go of me.

I want you to stay, Arjay.

I don't deserve your help.

Of course you do.

I've been nothing but trouble
to you and your friends.

- Just let me go.
- No, I won't.

I can't let you
leave like this.

Stay.

You're the only one here
who really knows

what I'm going through.

David and I...

David and you what?

There are things
that you do not know.

They wouldn't listen.

I don't think
there's any convincing them.

They don't trust you.

Well, you can.

You can trust me.

I hope so.

I'm going to uncuff you, Gabe.

And I'm asking you to stay put.

Don't run for the hills
the second my back is turned.

Don't storm the house
and catch us off guard.

If I come back with the group
and you're still here waiting

they'll know
that they can trust you.

I'll know that I can trust you.

I really hope
this isn't the last time

I see you.

Arjay's gone.

Good.

He doesn't wanna cause
any more trouble.

I'm guessing you didn't kill
the volunteer?

Are you kidding me?

Of course not.

Well then,
what are we gonna do, Zabi?

We can't let him go tonight
when we leave.

He... he'll just round up
the troops and hunt us all down.

He won't. I trust him.

Look, come with me,
I'll show you.

He's not the person
that you think he is.

Someone has gotta
take care of this.

We have to cover our tracks.

Can you even see
how this looks right now, David?

You're holding a gun...

...and talking about
killing someone.

It's seriously
like I don't even know you.

Yeah, well... it has to be done.

So, I don't know
what to tell you.

Go get Jarret.
Tell him to do it.

Sarah... I've packed
all of your things.

I would like you
to come upstairs.

I don't know
how to do this without you.

I don't know how to do
anything without you.

We've helped so many people.

The one time I try to do it
with the people I love the most

- it all gets fucked.
- I know.

But I need your help.

David and Zabi feel safest
when you are leading us.

Arjay told me...

about what happened.

Is it true?

Is this the first time?

You... you've always
felt this way?

Why?

Why have you never talked
to me about this?

I could've...

I would've understood,
I...

I would have.

You can't understand.

I'm branded, David.

Branded.

I got marked while you hid.

- You could've had the...
- You didn't...

...you didn't even
have the courage to be yourself

let alone talk to me about this.

And meanwhile,
we could have been

going through
all of this together.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

There should've been
two letters on our door.

I went through
all of this alone!

You could have been
honest with me.

You don't understand.

You didn't give me a chance to.

I've always been alone
with this.

You didn't have to be.

You made that choice.

I didn't have to self-report,
send in my census form.

I could've hid,

stopped going to mosque,
avoid my family.

But I...
...I know who I am.

And even though
it's been terrifying,

even though it has put me
through hell...

If I...

if I could go back...

...I would still self-report
because I am proud of who I am.

I'm gonna unplug
the radio.

- Don't you fucking dare.
- Sarah...

Let me do this.

All you have to do
is come with me

and we can have the life
we had before...

- No, don't touch it.
- I promise we can start again.

We can build
a new family, Sarah.

I don't want to replace him.

Okay?

I don't.

I'm gonna unplug it right now.

- No.
- Sarah, we need to let go.

- We have to move on!
- Stop!

Oh, my God. Oh, my God,
oh, my God.

Oh, my God, oh, my God,
oh, my God, oh, my God.

Baby, okay baby, calm down, okay?

You're making yourself sick,
calm down.

I've always known
that you were different.

That's why I fell in love
with you.

But, now...

David! Zabi, help!

I need to get Sarah and Jarret

and we need to meet
at the barn now.

David, David, do you hear me?

David, look at me, look at me.

Look at me!

I'm sorry.
I know that you're in pain.

But that man in the barn,
he's in pain too.

And I trust him.

He has been open
and honest with me

and he is our way out of here.

I will always love you.

Always.

But we have to start over
and to do that,

we need to get out of here, now.

Help!

Help!

It's okay, okay? It's okay.

It's okay.

- What's happening?
- I don't know. I don't know,

- she just started bleeding.
- What did you do?

I don't know.

- Honey.
- I don't know. I don't know.

- I don't know.
- Okay, hey, look at me.

- I don't know.
- Sarah, we're gonna get you cleaned up,

and get us out of here, all right?

- We've got to wait.
- It's okay, it's okay.

- Just wait.
- It's okay.

We can't give up now.

Sarah, Sarah, it's okay, it's okay.

Look at me. Look at me,
keep your eyes open.

You've given us
everything we need, okay?

Let me help you.

We don't need to worry anymore.

I've got you, I've got you.

It's okay, it's okay.

- David.
- I got her, I got her, I got her.

Here, I got her, I got her.

Be careful.
I'll be right behind you.

David...

No.

David...

why don't you give me the gun?

It's over. Okay? It's over.

Just give me the gun.

No!

Okay, okay, come out here.
Time to go.

- No, I can't go.
- We're gonna go, come on.

Come on.

Volunteer 9947, check in.

I'm gearing up and ready to go.

Yes, yes.

I'm gonna buy you
some time, okay?

Now, you and Zabi,
you're gonna get to the truck,

and you're gonna drive
to the border,

and you're gonna cross.

You're gonna find one
of the spots

that you've crossed before
'cause I know you can do it.

You remember. You remember.

What about David?

David...

is...

gone.

He's gone.

But you two are gonna get
outta here, okay?

You just gotta go now.

- No, no.
- Yes.

I'm gonna find you.

- No.
- I'm gonna find you. Promise,

- No.
- I'll find you.

I'm gonna find you.

Zabi, Zabi, hey, look at me.

You gotta
take care of her, okay?

- Okay.
- You gotta take care of her. You do not come back.

Okay.

Sarah, let's go.

Please, come.

I love you, okay?
I love you, okay?

You just gotta go.
You gotta go now.

Okay.

This way.

Hey, 9947.

I'm 4464,
good to meet you, brother.

Nice to meet you.

I'm Dee, 23487.

Hi.

Hey,
sorry to bug you guys, but, uh,

I'm gonna sweep the area,
all right?

It's not a disturbance at all.

I mean, I just... I just
appreciate you guys checking in.

Step on inside, I'll...
I'll get my gear.

- Hey.
- Yeah?

You said
you heard shots, right?

Yeah.
I... I definitely heard 'em.

Well, what direction did they sound like...

...they were coming from?

Uh. I... I couldn't rightly say.

I mean, I had the game on, uh,
pretty loud.

Sarah...

We know they came
from zone ten, right?

Very few residences around here.

Shouldn't take long to find 'em.

Do you mind if,
uh, for safety sake,

if we take a look around?

I... I don't mind at all.

As long as you don't mind
my dirty undies laying about.

Hey, hey, hey, uh,
weren't you with us yesterday?

Sarah.

Come on.

I know you, you busted
that one bitch's teeth,

clean outta her head.

Yeah.

Go, go, go, go.

Fuckin' miss out on all the fun.

Sarah, we have to run, okay?

I can't do it.

You can do it, you can do it.

- I need help.
- Okay.

Ready? One, two, three.

Finished sweeping the property.
We didn't find anything.

All right, let's start
a larger sweep of the area.

Check the woods
at the perimeter.

Hey, 9947,
what you got in that barn?

I mean,
to be honest fellas,

it's been a long time
since I've been in there.

You know, the usual stuff,
tractor, small propane tanks,

you know.

What the fuck is that?

They found Gabe, and David.

Sarah, we gotta go.

No, Jarret.

Come on.

What's going on?

Why are we slowing down?

There's a checkpoint ahead.

We might be fucked.

Holy shit.

What?

They have Arjay.

Tied up on the side
of the road just to our right.

Evening, miss,
can I see your papers?

Oh, of course.

I heard the siren.
Is everything all right?

Everything's fine. Your papers.

Wait here a minute.

Give me the gun.

When you see your moment,

grab Arjay
and get the fuck outta here.

Looks like we got a problem
here, Miss Sarah.

It says here you're female,
Caucasian.

I need you to turn around
so I can see...

Don't come any closer
motherfuckers

or I'll blow his head off.

She's armed.

Billy, keep an eye
on that bitch in the truck.

All right, just settle.

We need to get more men
in the area.

- Let him go.
- Or what?

Can I tell you the truth? Can I?

Don't you move
a muscle, bitch.

Come on. Come and get me.
Try it.

What're you lookin' at?
Keep your eyes down.

- Get to the truck.
- All right.

This is your last
chance. Let him go.

I shot those little bitches

I said don't look at me.

Where's everyone else?

They're coming later.

They'll be right behind us.

How will they find us?

- They just will.
- They...

...they'll cross too and...

...we'll find each other.

How?

So, you were saying,
native New Yorker?

Mm-hmm.

- Native New Yorker.
- Brothers and sisters?

Three brothers.

Three brothers?

And, uh, where do you fall
in the line?

Yongest.

- The baby.
- Yeah.

I'm glad I waited
that whole extra 20 minutes

for you.

Dude, it was the MTA.

You're really not gonna
ever let this go, are you?

- Are you?
- If you had been ghosted as many times as I have,

you wouldn't let it go either.

I don't think you wanna compare
statistics in that area, buddy.

Oh, yeah? Try me.

Let's say, I've been on more
dates that didn't show up

than did.

Uh. It's just...

I'm usually always wearing this.

So, on a first date...
I don't know.

I'd love to ask
the real assholes

why they didn't show up,
but I... I have my theories.

I'm sorry, I don't understand.

I'm Muslim.

This is a hijab.

Got it. Uh. Sorry,
I'm an idiot.

No.

Thank you for telling me that.

And I'm sorry,
I still don't understand.

You didn't wear this
on our first date because...

Um. I...
I don't know.

It's kind of hard to talk about.

I guess
I... I haven't really felt...

very safe... recently,

with everything
that's been going on.

So...

you were a stranger.

On our first date,
I was nervous. I...

I didn't know
what I was walking into.

You could've been
a volunteer for all I knew.

What? Do I look like
a volunteer to you?

Well...

No, come on.

Med school keeps me way too busy
to do any volunteer work.

Last time I ever volunteered
for anything

I think was, um, a bake sale
in middle school.

I made burnt cookies.

It's really,
really great recipe.

I can share it with you.

- Please.
- Yeah.

Do you wanna put that on?

Yes.

You look...

so beautiful.

That's very sweet but...

sometimes...

...people look at me
and they only see this...

this one thing.

Sometimes, I know
that they don't like me

because of it.

I met you and for a split second
I thought...

this would just all be
so much easier

if I wasn't Muslim,

which is horrible, but...

So, you hid it.

I...

...thought that I could not hide
this part of myself but just...

delay you knowing about it
until I felt...

safe.

I don't know,
it sounds stupid but...

I... I haven't been
wearing it recently.

You don't have to hide
that part of yourself from me.

You don't have to hide
anything with me.

Okay.

Thank you.

I won't.

Because, uh,
I'd like to keep seeing you,

if that's...

...something
that's interesting to you.

Are you sure?

'Cause times
are changing. And...

...people will look at us,
my parents included.

Fuck 'em.

Not your parents, of course, no.

I will win them over
easy enough.

Oh, yeah?
Are you ready to convert?

Oh, easy. One step at a time.

Okay, then... hold my hand.
