Original subtitles

So I'll lead you down to the boat.

Great.

Sorry to be such a pain.

Normally, I can find my way around pretty well,

but here, I feel like I might just take a swim.

Ah, d-don't worry about it.

It's no problem.

All set?

All set.

That's a boy, that's a Boy.

That's a boy, all right.

Okay, your Captain today is Fred Boggs.

He's old, but he knows these waters

like the back of his hand.

There we are, you stay there now.

You stay there, that's a boy.

Ahoy Captain Boggs!

Oh, there you are.

And you must be my passenger, Mr. Davis.

Indeed it is.

Ah, Royce will be fine though.

Is that Chinook I hear?

Oh, is that your dog?

No, no, he's my sisters dog.

Isn't that right Chinook?

Well I heard he just flew in from Africa?

Yep, this dog has had some pretty incredible adventures.

I've heard all about it from my niece and nephew.

Well, I just wish he could talk,

I could deal with this tales all the way on the trip up.

Let me take your bag.

- Okay. - Okay.

Just come a little forward.

I got the bag, all right.

Now watch your step.

Now, what I'm gonna do,

is I want you to take your left hand here

and put it on this extension.

Okay, now I got us.

You've got to step.

Over, yeah, that's it man.

- Careful. - Good.

You got one step, hold on.

Yeah, you're good.

One more step down.

Oh!

Alright there you go.

There we are.

Hey!

Welcome aboard.

Ah - Thank you.

Oh, sorry

sometimes this can get a little awkward,

I'm afraid I'm not gonna be much of a deckhand around here.

You're gonna do just fine.

- Now let me get you a seat here. - Okay.

Uhh, and all you have to do is turn around

because you're in the stern seat, okay?

Got it. All right.

- Okay. - And Chinook next to you there.

- Now sit, you're fine. - Oh.

- Hey boy. - There you go.

- Hey, hi, good to see you. - This is your life jacket.

Just put that around your arm there...

- Oh, okay, got it. - You got it?

- Got it. - Okay, that's fine.

How ya doing boy?

Now, if these are gonna be any bother,

I can, I can put 'em up forward.

Oh, no, no, no, Chinook and I are old friends.

Aren't we boy?

All right, okay. Alright.

Hey Aunt Susan.

Hi sweetheart.

What time are we picking Dad up at?

I think his boat gets in around 5:30.

I can't wait to see him again, he's been gone so long.

I know.

Your Dad hates being away from you and your brother, you know.

And since the mine closed down,

he's gotta go where the work is.

I'll let his highness know.

No annoying your brother.

Hey!

Hey!

Open this door or I'll break it down!

I'd like to see you try!

What is going on up there?

Erin came in and threw water on my back!

Erin, what did I say?

What, it's only water, it's just a joke!

All right, we'll talk about this

Max, go back to your own room!

I'll get you later.

Everything okay back there?

Need anything?

No, everything's fine, just enjoying the ride.

I guess you experience things in a completely different way.

You could say that.

The scenery sounds beautiful.

The sun feels beautiful on my fa.

Huh. Never thought about it like that.

When one, one sense stops functioning,

the other ones tend to compensate to an amazing degree.

You mind if you ask ya, uh

were you born with blindness?

No, no, it was a roadside bomb in Afghanistan.

I was 19 at the time.

Oh, you were in the military.

Yes sir.

Army Engineers.

We were assigned to build schools over there.

They sure have a heck of a way of saying thank you.

Uh, I-I, I don't carry around bad feelings anymore.

I mean, it was a war zone and I did volunteer.

Are you married?

I was.

My wife died two years ago from cancer.

I have a boy and a girl.

One tween and a teen.

I'm, I'm sorry about your wife.

It's been tough on all of us.

My sisters been a God send.

Taking care of my kids while I had to be away for work.

Yeah, you gotta rely on family in times like these.

Well, I'm not on my 13-year-old sons good books these days.

Uh-oh, why is that?

We have to move to the city for my work

since the mine closed,

and he's an outdoorsman, hates the city.

He's like my boys, they love the north.

My wife and I raised six.

Six?

Wow, you don't see too many families

with that many kids these days.

No, no you don't.

Well, things were different back in those days.

They're all grown up,

and doing their own thing.

One thing,

as long as you have your kids, stay close to them while you can.

Oh, I intend to.

That's why I can't wait to get back

I've been away far too long.

All right, off to pick you your.

Yay, I can't wait to see Dad again..

I hope he brought my new video game from the city.

That's all you care about, those stupid video games.

They're not stupid. You haven't got a clue lame-o!

All right you two, absolutely no fighting

when we see your Dad.

Nice, happy, family.

Nice, happy, family, that's right

What is it boy?

Captain Boggs, is everything okay?

Captain Boggs?

Captain Boggs!

Captain Boggs!

He still has a pulse.

I gotta get to the control.

Just call your Dad real quick and see how far out he is.

Hmm, that's weird.

He should be close enough by now.

Chinook, hey buddy.

Hey Chinook.

Hey boy, go get Captain Boggs.

Captain Boggs!

Help!

Captain Boggs?

Hey, hey buddy.

Captain Boggs?

Captain Boggs?

Okay, he's still got a pulse.

Okay.

Okay.

Hey, hey pal.

Call home.

[phone beeping Oh, come on!

Got no signal.

Call home!

No signal.

Hi David, this is Susan Wade, Royce's sister.

Yeah, I'm just wondering if you can confirm for me

that Royce left the office and is on his way back home.

He did.

Okay.

No, I'm a little bit worried.

I'm here at the dock in Port Moody

and he hasn't shown up yet.

I think he was supposed to be here about an hour ago.

I'd appreciate that David, yeah, thank you.

Call me back as soon as you can.

Okay, thanks.

Where's Dad?

Shouldn't he be here by now?

They're gonna find out the name of the boat captain

bringing him up here and get right back to us, okay?

We'll just wait here for a little while.

Okay, okay, okay.

It won't be long before we're declared past due, okay.

Someone will come find us.

I'll be fine.

I found my stick buddy!

What's that boy?

I got water, I got water pal!

Chinook, buddy, come here.

Come here, you thirsty bud, come.

That's a good boy.

Drink up, good boy.

That's it, yeah, yeah.

Okay...

Okay, I just hope help gets here.

Unless we're in a cove or something.

I think it's gonna get cold.

I mean,

I have to look for some blankets.

I'm guessing by the feel of your

you're not gonna need one, huh bud?

I know there are some here, right..

Yeah, yeah, okay.

Yeah, this'll work.

What's this?

Oh, hey.

Yup. Mmm.

I bet you'd like a piece of this, huh?

So good.

No, I gotta save it.

What else you got in here?

Here you go, here you go.

What's this?

Okay, well that might come in handy.

Provided I could load it and fire it up in the air.

Well okay, got it.

Maybe I can signal a plane or something.

Right?

Hi, are you Susan?

Yeah.

All right, no word from your brother?

Nothing, no.

Every time I call it just goes straight to voicemail.

Okay, well, we've let search and rescue know,

they're trying to reach the boat by radio.

Best thing I'd recommend is you and your children to go home

and wait for word from us.

You should know my brother's blind.

He won't be able to last in a survival situation

the way a sighted person would.

Okay, good to know, I'll let them know right away.

Thank you ma'am.

Thank you, thank you.

Uh, I've just been informed that Mr. Davis...

What about Daddy, where is he?

They're gonna find the boat and let us know sweetheart.

We'll go home for now, okay?

He's still alive Chinook,

but I don't know of he's gonna last the night.

I'm guessing with this weather

they've called off the aerial search buddy.

I don't know buddy, I don't know.

We gotta keep up our strength pal.

Here.

Call home.

Call home.

Mayday, mayday!

Does anyone copy?

Mayday!

Mayday!

Do you read me?

Mayday!

- Come in, come in. - It's raining heck.

Captain Walker, it's good to see you again.

Please.

I wish this reunion was for very different reasons.

Do you have any information about my brother or the boat?

I'm afraid not Mrs. Wade.

We were not able to get the boat on the radio and

we're not able to launch the choppers in this weather.

Now the skies will begin to clear at 0600,

and then we plan to launch the choppers

and, and search the entire route that they should've taken.

Well what'd you think happened? I mean, they can't just vanish.

I really can't say.

I mean Captain Boggs is an experienced captain.

He knows these waters very well.

If they ran into trouble,

he would have sent out a distress call from the boat

and so far, we haven't heard a distress call

from anyone along the coast.

Is it possible they hit a rock and went down?

Yeah, that is a possibility, yes.

So my brother's either drowned

or floating around out there in the middle of the night?

Now, let's not jump to conclusions..

We are going to launch a full-so search first thing in the morning..

But he's blind!

He can't survive out there!

We're doing everything we can to rescue your brother

and Captain Boggs as quickly as we can.

My base camp is five minutes down the road.

You and I can be in constant contact.

Thank you.

Hey boy, hey.

Good boy.

Good boy.

You're a good boy.

It's okay, he's still with us.

It's okay.

We're gonna be fine.

Have they phoned about Dad yet?

Not yet sweetheart.

What if they never find him?

I miss him.

Hey, hey.

That's okay, that's okay, they're gonna find him.

They've got the helicopters up

looking for him right now.

Shh.

They should've called by now.

Well, it's gonna take a little time..

What if Dad is dead?

Hey, don't you even think that okay.

Come here, come here.

Shh, shh.

He's gonna be okay.

Captain Walker?

Captain Walker, the first of the boat units

headed out 30 minutes ago.

Okay great.

We're gonna have to search every nook and cranny of those inlets,

That boat could be anywhere.

Yes sir.

Of course, if it struck a rock and went down,

we're gonna need a submarine to find it.

Not just a helicopter or a boat.

That water's over 400 feet deep in some spots.

Exactly.

I fear we could be doing a recovery operation,

not just a rescue, James.

I heard the passenger on the boat is blind?

That's correct.

If this isn't hard enough,

we have that to deal with as well..

His poor family must be going through a terrible time.

And he has two kids.

Captain Boggs, his wife, is beside herself as well.

Well,

if that boat is still on the surface, we'll find it.

Hey buddy, hey there you are.

We've gotta give Captain Boggs a fighting chance.

Okay, he may only have a few hours left.

You're gonna be my seeing eye dog, okay?

All right, we're gonna be a team

Okay, we're gonna do this.

Come on.

Come, Chinook.

Okay, we can do this buddy.

Here we go.

Come on buddy, come on.

Come on boy, come on.

Come on, come on.

Come on.

You can do it.

Come on!

Come on.

You got it buddy.

Come on, come on.

Good boy, good boy.

We gotta help Captain Boggs.

Go!

Come on buddy, come on.

Come on.

That's it.

Come on, we're gonna get help.

Come on in Mrs. Wade.

Anything?

Not a trace.

What am I gonna tell the kids?

That this search is far from over..

Every boater in the area as been

to be on the lookout.

He'll turn up, eventually.

Provided they haven't sunk.

This is like something out of the Bermuda Triangle.

I'm as baffled as you are.

You see, if they went down,

you would think that one of our

or helicopters would've seen some floating debris.

And no radio contact, no phone contact?

How could they just vanish?

See, the boats emergency beacon was never activated,

and I don't know why.

If they went down, the beacon won't

activate on contact with water.

And if they ran aground, well, Captain Boggs

could've activated it manually.

And nothing.

Nothing.

Okay, go home boy.

Let's go home.

Let's go, okay.

Good job buddy.

You'd be better at this than me, even if I could see.

Hey, okay, okay.

Good job boy, good job.

Okay.

Just a little bit okay.

Buddy, we gotta ration this.

You know, I've never even been camping before.

My son on the other hand is obsessed with the woods.

I think he must be some

descendant of Davy Crockett or something

Okay, now I know why I've never been camping before.

Hang on, hang on.

Good boy, good boy, come here, come here.

Come, come.

Okay.

Hang on, hang on.

Hope we don't forget... Yeah, we don't wanna forget our bag.

It's got our treats, all right.

Okay, go home, go home.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, ok.

Whoa boy.

No, no, come here, come here Chi.

I don't know how deep this is bu

Or how warm.

What are we gonna do?

Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, where'd you go buddy?

Chinook?

Damn.

Chinook!

Hey buddy.

Hey, Chinook.

Hey boy, hey.

Mrs. Wade, I came as soon as I could..

This morning a local fisherman found the boat.

- It went aground. - Oh thank goodness.

And my brother?

He wasn't there.

Wasn't there?

What do you mean he wasn't there.

Did he fall overboard?

Here's what we know so far.

Captain Boggs suffered a heart a

while they were heading up to Po.

Now, he was found with the boat

in critical but stable condition.

Your brother left a note saying he was going

to get help with the dog.

So my Dad's alive?

It appears he is, yes.

That's right.

Chinook was being brought back up here to us.

With everything going on I completely forgot about Chinook.

Here's what we think.

Your brother decided to hike out using the dog as a guide.

So he's lost out there in the world..

Can you show me exactly where the boat was found?

Sure.

Yeah.

Right about here.

That's a whole lot of

wilderness out there son.

So now what?

What do we do?

My teams have begun a full scale search of the area.

Unfortunately, we don't know which direction

they could be heading.

But at least now we know what ha.

My teams have a general area

in which to begin the search.

My brother won't last out there in the wilderness.

It'd be hard for a sighted person..

I know Mrs. Wade, I know.

We're gonna need a fire buddy.

I'm not even allowed to start the barbecue at home.

We gotta find some sticks, okay buddy?

Come on.

It's okay, yes.

Yes, come here, come here boy.

Come here.

Hey, come here.

We're gonna start this, okay?

Come here boy, move out of the way.

We searched entire first sector

in all directions radiating out from the boat site.

Nothing?

Not a trace.

He can't be moving that fast.

What if he's already landed at the bottom of a ravine?

Well, let's hope that dog has sense enough

to keep him away from ravines.

Is it a seeing eye dog?

No, just a family dog.

But he's a big Alaskan Malamute.

What do you think his chances Ar.

Not good.

Are they gonna call tonight?

Captain Walker said he's gonna call at 7

seven with updates.

They should've found Dad by now.

I'm sure they're doing their best..

They have helicopters and search.

And they're not gonna stop until they find him.

They aren't doing enough!

Max.

Max!

Not bad for a blind guy right?

Hey bud.

Hey, wake up.

Erin, wake up!

What, what's happening?

What time is it?

I'm gonna find Dad.

You're going to do what?

I'm gonna find Dad.

No one knows these woods better than I do.

That's crazy, Aunt Susan will never let you go!

That's why I didn't ask her.

I left her a note.

Now are you coming or not?

It's too dangerous, I don't think you should.

I already lost Mom, I'm not losing Dad as well.

Now do you love Dad or not?

Of course I do, I just, I don't.

Fine, suit yourself.

But I'm gonna find him.

Max wait!

Max, wait!

I can't let you take all the credit.

I could survive out there

just as well as you can.

Okay, fine, but I'm the expedition leader.

What?

You never mentioned that.

Every expedition has a leader.

Well this expedition has two lea.

Come on.

Max!

Erin!

Max!

Okay, easy boy, easy.

What is it boy?

What is it?

What is it Chinook, I don't know.

What is it boy?

I don't know what to do.

Just coming towards you okay bud.

I'm just gonna take another step

Okay, I think I get it buddy.

Go.

You okay, you okay?

You a good boy.

Okay, you're a good boy, you're a good boy.

The best.

Thank you.

That was the police. I was just making sure they had

a full description of the kids

and the pics you sent me.

I can't believe they would do Th.

First my brother and now the kid.

Mrs. Wade, we need to stay calm.

Do you have any idea which way they could be headed?

Max has that map, I'm sure they're probably headed

to where they found the boat.

Your nephew can navigate in the woods that well?

Yes, I think so. Um.

He's always been really good at orienteering.

Well he's probably thinking

he can cross paths with your brother that way.

It's a good thing, in the sense that now we have a good idea

of where they're gonna be heading..

Come here.

So, this is your house

and this is where they found the boat, all right.

Now, at a walking speed of approach.

Two miles an hour over rough terrain

we have a pretty good idea of where they could be.

I gotta get out there and look for.

Mrs. Wade, I already have three

of your family lost in the Wilde

I do not need a fourth.

No, you'll stay with me.

They can't have got that far.

We'll find them.

Hey, wait a second.

How do you know which direction

I'm using my compass.

Okay, and what direction are we going using the compass?

Plotted a course where Dad's boat was found.

Northwest.

Okay, we're just gonna bump into Dad at some point?

Yeah.

Max, Dad could be headed in literally any direction,

and no one has any clue where he.

He's coming home, I know he's heading for home.

Well, I hope this Chinook is some sort of wonder dog then!

We've both heard stories about Chinook.

I believe in him.

Even if no one else does.

We're good boy.

Hey, Oh.

What is it boy, huh?

Where is it?

Where is he boy?

Hey buddy.

Good job.

Good job.

I've identified an insertion poi

where we can begin searching for the kids on foot.

I agree Captain Walker, that's an excellent plan.

We're hoping to cut your kids of

before they get any deeper into the wilderness.

What about my brother?

Our policy is to make minors the.

Quite frankly, the kids are now

resources away from the search for your brother.

But we can't just give up on him.

Oh no, no we're not Mrs. Wade.

All the teams are gonna keep sea

What are you doing!?

If Dad's anywhere close, he'll hear that.

And what, he'll just answer back with his own air horn!?

Next time you do that, warn me first, okay?

You almost blew out my ear drums.

Oh dear, I'm sorry princess.

Would a princess be out here in the middle of a forest

with her annoying brother?

No, so don't start that with me,

I'm getting really hungry and I you brought a lot of good food!

We'll be hiking for another hour or so and then set up camp.

Do you have any idea where we are on the map?

Sure, I have an approximate idea.

Approximate idea!?

You mean we're lost already!?

When we set up camp I can review the map, don't worry.

Oh I worry I worry.

Why didn't I just stay home?

There, perfect.

Are you sure that thing won't bl.

Quite sure.

I can't believe I'm gonna share a tent with my brother.

You can always sleep outside.

Why don't you sleep outside under the stars,

survival man.

What do we have to eat?

Bologna sandwiches.

Ew, are you serious?

That's it?

What'd you expect to eat on a rescue mission?

Five star cuisine?

No, but I thought you would of a least brought better food than that..

Nope, you travel light and you eat simple foods.

Bon appetit!

Ha ha.

I wonder what Dad's doing right.

He's okay, he can take care of himself..

At home, at the office, sure,

Dad's amazing with all of that.

But out here?

He's okay Erin, he's okay.

Still mad that he's making us move though.

Max, Dad only moved us up here so he could work at the mine.

I hate the city.

I know you do Max.

I'm gonna set up the sleeping Ba

I-I-I think there's something in.

Stop! Stop!

Come here!

Stop! Stop!

Get it away from me!

It's not funny.

Oh yeah it's funny!

I've never seen anything so hilarious in all my life!

I could've been sprayed!

Well, survival man, you just had

first encounter with a local wildlife..

Is there a merit badge for that?

Shut up!

You know, haven't they ever told

always zip up the tent when you're not in it,

or an uninvited house guest might just walk right in.

You can sleep out here tonight.

All right, why don't you two take the north ridge,

Sweep down

why don't you come in from the east

and you link up with him on the.

Mrs. Wade, you and I will take the south ridge.

Any news from the aerial units?

Afraid not yet.

How could they have just vanished like this?

Look, your brother and the kids could be anywhere by now.

The most important thing for us

is to maintain an organized sear.

Let's go.

Max!

Erin!

Max!

All right.

Hold this,

and throw it to me when I get ac.

- All right. - Okay?

All right.

Okay, throw it!

You've gotta be kidding me!

I'm sorry, it was too big, it slipped!

That was all of our stuff!

Now what are we gonna do?

We can try and get it!

It's gone!

It's gone!

Our rescue mission's done!

Jump over!

Come on, jump over!

I can't believe you did that!

I'm sorry, it was too heavy!

Why don't we just go back now?

We tried our best.

Because I don't think I could get us back!

Well, don't you still have your map and compass?

Yes, here in my coat and my hat..

That's it!

We have no matches, no tent, and no food!

I'm sorry!

I'm sorry Max!

It's okay.

It was an accident.

Sorry I yelled.

It was really my fault,

I should've gotten across a different way.

Okay, well what do we do now?

I'm not sure.

Let's try and find the boat Dad.

We know where it is,

and we know there's gonna be food there.

That could be another day or two.

If we can find it.

Well we don't have much choice now do we?

Come on.

I don't know if I can keep going

I'm exhausted.

Wait, you hear that boy?

Hey!

Hey, I'm down here!

Hey!

Hello! Hey!

I'm down here!

Hello!

Hey!

No!

Are you okay?

Yeah, yeah.

I'm a little banged up, but I'm not seriously injured.

No, you're cut really bad.

Yeah, let's hope that wolf had his rabies shots, huh.

We gotta get you to a hospital.

Here, here.

I wanna thank you for what you did there.

That was some quick thinking.

Base, I've been attacked by a wolf on the south ridge,

I'm okay, Mrs. Wade is okay.

No life-threatening injuries.

Say again Captain Walker. Did you say a wolf?

Affirmative, I said a wolf, over.

Roger that Captain Walker..

Medical team is being dispatched to you.

Evac on standby, over.

No, no, no, don't take any resources

away from the search.

We can walk back just fine.

Are you sure?

We'll be back at base in an hour

Well, I've been thinking about upgrading anyway.

I've had this one for a month,

Got it.

That's the money piece.

Next time a helicopter comes by we're gonna signal it.

Do you know where we are?

Well, this is the Bow River all right

but it has so many tributaries,

I have no idea which one this is.

Oh great!

But at least we have plenty of fresh water.

That's key in any survival situation.

What about food?

Well, the bears downstream are

enjoying our bologna right now.

Are you just gonna keep going on about that?

Did you see that? Fish!

Yeah, okay cool,

but we don't have any fishing Ge.

We will soon enough.

All right, let's give this.

All right.

Oh, see that!

I got one!

Oh my God!

Oh my God, I can't believe it!

That was amazing!

Can you start a fire?

I've never done it without matches before.

Well, you can rub two sticks together, right?

I've read how to do it but I've never actually done it.

Okay, what do we need?

Two very dry, straight sticks.

All right.

Smoke!

Quick, small sticks!

Captain Walker, I can't tell you how sorry I am

for what happened today.

There is no way this is your fault.

If you hadn't been there things could've been a lot worse.

It's my kids that ran off,

I can't help but feel responsible

I do not want you feeling responsible in any way.

Taking risks is part of my job.

Royce has been out there for a long time now.

If he has food and water, he can survive for a long time.

Well what happens if they encounter a wolf,

like we did today?

In 30 years of doing this job,

I have never seen a wolf behave like that.

Normally they avoid contact with humans.

Normally.

Normally yes.

Well with habitat loss and climate change

we're seeing a human animal conflict

in a much greater scale.

They're coming into areas for food

that they usually avoid.

Mm, not bad!

Bologna sandwiches would have been a lot less work.

Here we go again.

Sorry.

Aunt Susan must be losing her mind by now.

We shouldnt have ran off like this

I know, I was just so desperate to help Dad.

Me too.

Well, you got your wish Max.

What's that?

You're in a real survival situation.

Well, so far so good.

Ooh!

Hey, hey boy.

I'm hungry too.

Hey.

You want a little bit?

Come.

Show me where to go buddy, let's

Ah, so many bugs!

Here, here's some pine.

What?

Pine needles.

Rub them on your hand and rub it on your skin.

I just wanna get out of here.

Any idea how much further?

Like I said, it's gonna take a while..

I'm so hungry.

Last night's fish wasn't enough to hold me.

I'm hungry too Erin.

Come on.

Good boy, good boy.

Come.

Come on, you gotta be kidding me!

Hey boy, hey.

I know boy, I know, hang on.

Wow, amazing.

Yeah, but now what?

We can't get down.

Dang it, we're gonna have to go back for a while

and try another way.

That map isn't much use.

I just can't get my bearings even with the map!

I'm sorry Max, I know you're try

Yeah, yeah.

Please, please see me.

He's going away.

He's going away.

It's okay boy, it's okay, there'll be another one.

Captain Walker, one of the teams found this

washed up on the bank of the Bow.

Oh no!

Mrs. Wade, is this your nephew's backpack.

Yes.

That doesn't mean they're dead,

they could've lost it crossing the river..

That means they're out there without supplies and without foo.

Hang on, is the map and compass in there?

No, I can't find it.

Well that means your nephew still has a way of navigating.

James, show me on the map

exactly where the backpack was found..

Right here sir.

That doesn't give us a lot to go.

They could've crossed anywhere and then headed north.

What I wouldn't give for just one piece of good news.

I'm sorry.

Hey, wait up.

You okay?

Hiking through the woods with no food

or water is hard work.

Who knew?

Can you keep going?

I just need to rest for a.

What are we gonna do tonight?

I could build a

What about water?

There's gotta be a stream around here some place.

All right?

Okay.

Okay.

Hey buddy.

I can't keep you here anymore bu.

Okay.

Okay.

You gotta go home now.

Go.

Go on, go!

Go on boy!

Mrs. Wade, is there anything I can do..

Ah It's okay.

Just talking to my Mom.

I'm sorry.

We're doing all we can.

I know.

I know your team are out there risking their lives

to save my brother and the kids.

Y-You know, it may seem hopeless right now...

I just didn't get a chance to say goodbye to anyone.

You know, I've been involved

in so many of these operations

that end on a positive outcome.

Okay?

Tired.

Max, it's a wolf!

It's not a wolf, it's a dog.

Hello.

Hey, where'd you come from boy?

Max, this is Chinook!

The famous Chinook, we meet at last..

Dad must be close!

Come on!

Come on!

Wait up!

Hey, wait up!

I wish we had a leash.

Chinook?

Chinook.

What are you doing back boy?

Hey, hey, what are you doing back?

Hey, where are you?

- There he is! - Dad!

Max!

- Daddy! - Erin!

- Dad! - Hey!

Hey guys.

Hey, what are you two doing out.

We came to find you Dad!

Chinook led us right to you!

Where's your Aunt Susan?

Well, Max had an idea to come out here and find you,

so I came along with him.

You guys came out by yourselves?

We had to Dad, we had to.

Your Aunt Susan's gonna be a wreck

when she finds out all three of us are out here.

- We found you Dad. - I know you did buddy.

Uh, dad, do you have any water?

What yeah I mean, yeah I have some,

but, here.

This is it kiddo, we gotta make.

You guys, you came out here without water

or food, I mean, do you have sup.

Yeah, we had a bit of an accident

and lost all of our gear.

Turns out I'm saving you guys, huh?

Wait, I could still start a fire

and I have my map and compass.

Hey Max, do you think you could guide us out of here?

Yeah Dad, I can do it.

Okay, good.

Okay, but I'm not going anywhere right now.

My, my leg is edged in here and it won't budge.

Erin, come on.

No I, okay.

This log is too heavy!

I can't move it!

Look, uh... Hey, Max!

Uh do you know what a, a, a lever and a fulcrum is?

Yeah Dad, I can cut down a tree.

Okay, yeah, yeah, and use a rock as a fulcrum.

All right!

Erin, help me!

Just stay close guys.

How's it coming Max?

That's it, I can feel it guys.

I can feel it.

Okay, try now Dad.

That's it, that's it!

You two are amazing.

I thought I was gonna die out he.

Never, never say that Dad, never.

Luckily Chinook was with you.

He saved you Dad.

Yeah, he sure did.

Hey, did you guys happen to hear anything

about the boat captain who was driving me?

They said he was found alive, Dad..

He's in the hospital.

Really?

That's amazing news.

I can feel the temperature starting to drop guys.

It's gonna get dark soon.

Hey Max, you think you can get that fire going?

Yeah Dad, easy.

Really?

I mean, I had to use a flare gun.

Captain Walker, sorry.

I've been waiting.

Please, no, it's all right.

Please.

Sit down.

Just so desperate for any sign of them..

If I'd been paying better attention

Max and Erin would have never gone off without me knowing.

Hey, there's no point in blaming yourself.

These are good kids.

They believe they were doing the right thing.

Look, why don't you go home and get some rest.

We'll see you first thing in the morning.

I-I wanna stay in one of the trailers here.

I wanna be available the second any news comes in.

Yeah, of course.

James here will make sure you're comfortable.

Thank you.

What do you think?

I think we need a miracle.

Or at the very least, a lucky Br.

We'll get one sir.

Hey guys, you know what, I think it's dinner time.

One piece of jerky each.

That's it?

We have to ration it Erin.

What about Chinook?

Yeah, of course she gets one.

Here you go buddy.

Yeah.

We're having a camp out Dad.

Yeah, yeah I guess we are.

Maxwell listen to me,

nobody was happier to hear your voices today than I was.

But now you two are in danger here too.

And your Aunt Susan...

She'll be worried sick about us.

Yeah, exactly.

But we saved you Dad.

You sure did.

But next time I go missing in the woods,

can you just leave it to the professionals please?

Sure.

Hey, Dad, you know what?

What?

Max set up the tent, and when he wasn't looking,

a skunk walked right inside.

And then he went in and he started screaming.

It was the funniest thing I've ever seen.

I wish I had been there for that.

The rest I could skip.

You never liked the wilderness Dad..

Come on Max, we've been through.

I had my job...

I'll hate the city.

You can go there without me then

Max.

Max, come back here!

It's okay Dad, he can't go..

He'll come back when he calms do.

Good morning.

Oh, good morning.

Did you sleep well?

No, not a wink.

Sorry.

This morning the teams will have a new search area.

So they'll be converging from north to south.

Look, we're running out of time.

We have to find them.

Did you eat yet?

No.

No, I can't.

You have to keep your strength up.

At a time like this.

It's very important.

Now, go get some breakfast.

That's an order Mrs. Wade.

Maybe a little.

Where's Max?

Just over there by a tree.

Can you please take me to him?

Of course.

Thanks kiddo.

Max.

Max, please.

What?

Listen bud, we gotta get moving, okay

so whatever bad feelings you have towards me right now,

you gotta set 'em aside so we can get out of here, okay?

Fine, but I'm not moving to the city.

How we doing Max?

Gotta keep heading southeast..

Can you tell how far away the house is based on the map?

Uh...

Navigating through the woods

is a bit harder than it seems.

It's okay Max.

You're gonna get us home, I know.

And Chinook here, he's great at finding his way.

I've always dreamed of having a dog like that.

Me too.

He's the perfect dog for the wilderness..

Well I can guarantee you he's ha

not to be towing me around anymore..

Don't hit the tree Dad, don't hit the tree.

It's right there.

Please don't hit the tree.

So you have to go down a.

Yup, that's safe ground.

- All right, boy. - All right,

Chinook's right in front of you guys so be careful.

Oh great.

Another river.

I don't have much luck with rive.

This is the Bow River Dad.

We didn't have much luck with it.

All right Look, Max,

uh, do you think you know where we are,

now that we have a landmark?

Uh... The Bow has so many tributaries..

I have no idea which one this is.

Okay, well let's just try and get across, all right?

Yeah.

I don't feel like going for another

Okay Dad, we can get you across.

You're not gonna push me in are you?

It's tempting.

The way puppy.

Uh, the rock, the,

Here, right here is the rock.

Uh, step a little closer, tiny step..

Tiny step forward.

And the next one is gonna be right here.

Max is there,

- I'll go right after you, okay. - There we go.

Take my hand.

- Chinook! - Next one is right here.

Looks like Chinook's going ahead.

- Okay. - Okay, thanks kiddo.

All right, next foot, just keep going to the front.

Keep, just in front again.

Okay.

There we go.

I'm gonna stay behind you now.

Okay.

There you go.

All right, All right, on your Ba.

Okay.

Erin will help you with this one.

So all right, move forward on Th

right here.

- Hey, yes Dad, move forward. - - And then, the next one,

- One more step. - Up here.

Right, now you're good.

Keep going.

Somewhat good.

Here, the next one, is he.

There?

There's one a little closer..

Yeah, oh, oh, oh, oh!

You're in the water Dad.

Erin look! - I think you can feel water..

- Wayward much. - So this rock.

kinda goes under.

I thought you would go a little bit farther.

Okay.

There we go, a little bit farther this time.

Okay Good, good. - Keep going straight Dad.

Straight.

Right here.

There we go.

Ugh

Are you okay, you look...

Oh wait, no, no wait,

that is totally not where you're supposed to go.

I'm feeling like you're punking me..

Uh, I feel it all right.

All right, don't step right.

Track it with your cane.

All right, there you go, just keep your balance right there.

Don't move your other foot yet.

All right.

- Go! - There we go.

All right, next to shore,

and then we have to climb up the ledge, okay?

So just walk forward, keep walking forward.

I got you.

A little bit.

Watch out Erin.

- And... - Hey, how far are you?

Right there.

Right here.

Okay.

And, there we go!

You did it!

That was scary back there.

Talk about a leap of faith.

It must've been so hard for you.

Oh it's okay.

I couldn't have done it without.

No more tributaries, plea.

It's not my fault.

Sure.

It's okay.

Guys, come on, let's just keep on moving.

We all set Max?

Yeah, it's just a little bit farther.

Okay.

Erin, help him not bump into any sticks.

He's okay.

Wait, stop.

Do you hear that?

I don't hear anything.

- What Dad? - Just listen.

It's a plane, I hear it!

Max, Max!

Take this, try and signal the pl.

Where'd you get this?

Don't worry about it buddy, just try and signal the plane.

Does it see you?

What's going on bud?

Max, does it see you!

He flew away.

We're never gonna get out of her.

It's okay Erin, it's okay.

We're gonna be fine.

Where did you get this?

I got it from my cellphone.

You smashed it?

You just got that phone!

I know buddy, I know.

How'd you know it was in there?

I heard about it on the news.

An IT worker got stranded in the mountains

when his car broke down.

He used the mirror to signal help..

Pretty smart survival technique

for someone who hates the wilder.

Let's just keep moving, all right..

What's the news?

A local pilot just radioed in.

Said he thought he saw a flashing

on the ground from this location.

Is it them? What did they see?

He was too low on fuel to circle back around,

but he radioed the coordinates to us from the air.

It's them.

It's them, I know it's them.

We don't have any teams in the a

quickest way there is by helicopter..

Chopper's warming up, let's go.

[tense music

Wait, wait.

What is it boy?

[helicopter whirring[.

It's a helicopter guys.

It's a helicopter and it's getting closer..

Now this is as far as the pilot

can get us into these coordinate.

He's gonna set down and we'll walk in from here.

Come on!

Easy.

Let's go Erin.

This way.

Easy!

Did you hear that?

Yup!

Come on!

Aunt Susan, Aunt Susan!

Max!

[Max} Aunt Susan!

Aunt Susan!

Max!

I thought we lost you!

Where is Erin?

Is Erin okay?

Yeah, she's okay.

And in fact we found Dad!

Your Dad's okay, he's alive?

Aunt Susan!

Hey!

Oh sweetheart!

Oh you're okay, you're safe.

Oh sweetheart.

You're safe, oh you're safe.

Hey.

I thought I'd lost you.

Thank you for coming for us.

You've always had my back sis.

Oh.

How did you find him?

We had an entire army of people looking for him.

Well, Chinook here led us right to him.

Awe, Chinook gets to be the hero again, huh?

He should live with us now.

We'll see him again Erin.

Awe.

You know, can we just,

can we just all go home so I can

sleep in my own bed for a change.

Yeah.

- Hey bud. - Come on Chinook.

[gentle music

There we go.

Everybody good?

We're gonna have these three taken to the hospital,

get 'em checked out.

Just to be safe.

It's okay, I don't-I don't have to go.

Oh you're going mister.

Max.

Ah.

Hey, hey...

- How you doin'? - Peter.

Hi.

For real?

Dad, he's ours now!

Well the good news is, your aunt and uncle

can come and visit him anytime they want.

Hey Dad, I've been thinking.

After this experience,

I now know that there's nothing important to me than you and Erin..

And Mom would always want us to stick together.

I'm sorry for the things that I.

I don't wanna move, but I will.

So we can stick together.

Max,

you now I had a lot of time to think out there too.

We don't have to move.

I can get a different job

or I can telecommute, it's all the rage now anyway.

Hey, but listen to me.

You and I are gonna spend a lot more time out there together.

Really Dad?

Can I get all new gear?

Well I guess you're gonna have to.

Yeah, you can help me pick it Al.

A Backpack, a sleeping bag, a Te.

Okay, first thing we need to do

is take the house off the market
