Welcome to Blackwood Pharmaceuticals.

Thank you for your interest in our Phase One clinical trials.

Blackwood are committed to innovation,

pioneering research into hundreds of new medicines each year.

In Phase One, we use healthy volunteers like you,

to help us better understand how a drug affects the body

before giving it to those with a medical condition.

Without your help, none of this would be possible.

Our facilities are fully equipped

and state of the art.

We hope you enjoy your stay.

Hey!

You must be Claire. I'm Alison.

Looks like we're roommates!

Cool. Yeah, nice to meet you.

Hey... I'm Alison.

Us three are the only girls, it seems like.

Wow... you sure brought a lot for five days.

I've never done anything like this before, have you?

I'm a little nervous.

It's silly I know, we'll be fine.

This is probably the worst part, the waiting--

Alison, sorry. I've had a pretty rough night and I'm exhausted.

I just wanted to have a nap before we start.

- Yeah, sorry, go ahead. I'll shut up. - Thanks.

Good morning.

All participants please convene in the Exam Room.

No Wi-Fi. No reception. It's bullshit!

What do ya expect, we're in a basement.

Nah, they're doing it on purpose.

So we can't tweet about the trial while it's happening or whatever.

This is why I keep saying we need a union.

Every trial they try pulling more shit.

Hello everyone. I'm Dr. Burke, and I'll be supervising this trial.

I'm sure you've heard all of this before, but just to reiterate.

This is a phase one safety study for Abexetine BRN14.

Five days total.

Dosage begins at 25mg,

and rises to 85mg by the end.

This is a double blind trial.

You'll be closely monitored for any irregularities or side effects,

but it's a fairly minimal dose,

so we expect it to be smooth sailing.

If you do have any questions, however,

please speak to any of the nurses... yes, Ray?

Are we going to get to go outside at all?

Afraid not. Participants are confined to this floor for the duration.

Ah, you're joking, right?

I'm sorry, but I don't make the rules here.

What's with all the trees?

Dunno.

Food's better than on Belmont at least.

Yeah, fried dog shit would be better than the food on Belmont.

Money's good too, for what it is.

Did you hear about the off-the-books trial they ran last year?

50 grand to stop your heart.

- That's a myth. - It's not, man!

A friend of mine was on it.

- Well, a friend of a friend. - Yeah, right.

Haven't seen you before.

- First time? - Yeah.

Let me guess.

You heard about it from a friend, and thought "easy money", right?

Dunno about "easy".

But I needed the money and don't have a lot of other options, so...

Young, broke and desperate.

The drug trial magic combo.

That's Vanessa. We see her a lot on these things.

A bit of an oddball.

One of those home-schooled kids, you know?

Her parents were big religious nut jobs.

Fire and brimstone and all that.

It's the quiet ones you've got to watch.

Now take a deep breath and hold it.

- Sorry... - Fuck!

- Any dizziness? - No.

- Nausea? - No.

- Headache? - No.

- Numbness, tingling? - No.

- Abdominal pain? - No.

- Dry mouth. - No.

I'm tapped out, I can't pee this much.

- Shortness of breath? - No.

I'll be back in 10 minutes.

Claire...

Claire...

Claire, are you sleeping?

- Claire... - What!

Wanna see a photo of my cat?

Yeah, that's a cat all right.

- Do you have any tattoos? - No.

What about that one on your ankle?

Why did you ask if you know the answer already?

'Cause I like it. What does it mean?

It's Chinese for "please be quiet".

I should get a tattoo.

Although I don't know what I'd get!

I feel like whatever I'd get,

I'll think it's totally stupid in five years' time.

Like when I was 15 I wanted to get a Deathly Hallows tattoo.

So embarrassing to even contemplate--

Alison, will you shut...!

Long day, huh?

Yeah.

Still, it's all for a worthy cause, right?

Is it? What's this drug supposed to do again?

Oh they're looking at all kinds of uses.

Weight loss, allergies, treating motion sickness.

Yeah, we're really doing the Lord's work.

You're a med student too?

- What?! No. - Oh.

I thought there'd be a few others.

Seems like I'm the only one.

I applied for the summer internship with Blackwood.

Still waiting to hear, but they approached me about this trial,

saying they were having trouble making up the numbers.

So I thought it would be a good chance to show them

I'm a team player, you know?

Now I'm kind of wondering what I've gotten myself into.

I couldn't sleep.

Yeah, we know.

None of us could.

I thought this was meant to be smooth sailing?

Yeah, they always say that.

Truth is, on half these first-in-man trials

they have no idea what's going to happen.

It's not like speed anyway, it's...

It's way more than that.

It's... I can't even describe it.

It's just a bit of insomnia, it's not the end of the world.

You run enough of these tests,

nothing surprises you anymore.

You're probably a bit short-handed with no night staff, right?

If you need any help running tests, or anything...

I mean... that would be completely unethical,

so you would never... I know that.

I know that. I was... um... I was joking.

Obviously.

We'll just see how long it lasts.

30 hours now since I last slept.

It's a weird feeling.

Imagine it lasted though?

Like, forever.

Think what we could do with all that extra time.

The days are long enough as it is.

- Checkmate. - What?

- No... - Yeah.

Okay, we need a rematch.

One game you said. I agreed to one.

I know, but I thought it would take longer than that.

Come on, one more. There's nothing else to do.

Okay, fine.

These all yours?

They're really good.

- Lots here of Paul, I see. - No, there's not.

I'm doing everybody.

You gonna go talk to him?

No, I couldn't.

I get like super shy talking to guys, can't think of what to say--

- Hey, Paul! - Claire, don't...

- Do you want to come pose for a portrait? - What?

- Do you want to post for a portrait? - What do you mean?

Nothing.

It's not funny.

So clearly no one is on a placebo.

Whatever this is,

it's going straight for the central nervous system

and it's causing serious brain inflammation.

Are you sure these pills are only 25mg?

This is a double blind trial.

You know I can't give you that information.

Yeah. Okay...

Um, have you seen the scans that I sent?

I'm looking at them right now.

For Subject 7, how many days later was the second scan taken?

No, you don't understand.

Both of those images were taken during the same scan.

All that growth occurred during one scan.

Hello?

Hi, this is George Bannon, Senior VP for Research.

Can you repeat that?

Claire, look. There's mice in there!

Look more like rats to me.

No, they're cute little mice.

It's so sad seeing them in those cages.

Why?

What can they do anywhere else that they can't do in there?

Lots of things.

You don't know what a mouse is capable of, okay?

They could meet other mice, they could have adventures...

They could fall in love!

Or get eaten or stepped on.

At least here they've got a roof over their heads.

Do you have a roof over your head?

I'm between places.

Yeah, but you have someone you can stay with after this,

like, family or something?

Honestly, if I were a mouse, I'd rather be

safe in a cage where I get fed and looked after

than outside fending for myself.

No... No, that's not true.

You'd be in there planning a little mice jailbreak or something.

Oh, look at that guy.

He's dying to get out.

Don't free the mice Alison, you'd be in deep shit.

They're probably worth more than we are.

So the parameters of the trial have shifted.

What we're really interested in now,

is how long you can stay awake.

So don't try to sleep,

and if you do start to feel tired, please inform myself

or another member of staff, immediately.

Doctor Burke...

Sorry, Doctor Burke. I just wanted to...

Amir, go back with the others.

Claire, you all right in there?

Claire?

Yeah, I'm just...

I'm not great with enclosed spaces.

Just relax. It won't take long.

Claire, I can't deal with you right now. Just stay in there.

Stop it, gimme a break. Stay in there, be quiet.

You can cry all you want, I'm not letting you out.

Please...

You're almost done. Please, get me out!

Please, let me out!

Please, let me out!

It was bad, huh?

I've a trick.

I used to see this youth counsellor for a bit, when I was younger.

And one time he told me about how playing Tetris could help with PTSD,

because it stops your brain from making visual memories or something.

So now whenever I feel overwhelmed by negative thoughts,

I play a game of Tetris in my head.

Try it, it works. Honestly! I do the music too.

Alison...?

You gotta really picture the blocks as they come down.

Alison, stop...

- Alison, that's really annoying. - Good! That means it's working.

Alison, oh, my God! You are the most annoying person I have ever met!

This can't be good for us.

We sleep for a reason, right?

We're meant to sleep.

You're upping the dose again?

I'm taking half of this.

I'm taking half of this and that's probably still more than I agreed to.

I thought it was meant to be 85mg, max.

Yeah, I'm not taking these.

I understand there's some concern at the new direction this trial is taking,

and I appreciate that.

Of course you are welcome to leave at any point.

But I have just been informed that there is now a bonus payment on offer

for any participants who do stay until the end.

30 thousand euro.

Each.

- You wha'? - 30 grand!

- 30 grand! - Each!

30 G's baby!

Right, okay, this is the closest thing they've got to champagne.

Give us a go of that Paul, will ya?

We're rich, boys. We're gonna be rich!

Come on, join the party.

You've clearly never danced before in your life.

What are you talking about? Look at these moves!

Go on... why aren't you happy?

Do you not think it's weird, they're just giving us all this money?

Only you would be looking at the downside of 30 grand.

Yeah, because there's always a catch.

Not always.

It's not like a universal law.

- Well... - Maybe we just got lucky.

Come on...

- Come on, come on... - Fine!

Woah!

Welcome to the party, pal!

This is weird. I don't think I've ever danced with someone

who wasn't trying to fuck me.

Hey, the night is young...!

Are you feeling tired?

No...

No, just um...

A bit, yeah. It just came on all of a sudden.

I better go tell Dr. Burke.

No, no. We need to stop the trial!

Their whole immune systems have gone haywire.

We can't stop now.

Keep upping the dose.

Let's see what happens.

I can finally afford to move somewhere decent,

get out of the kip I'm in now.

Imagine having a flat you're not sharing with four other people.

My own living room just for me,

that'd be insane.

I can really disappear for a while.

There's parts of India where 30 grand can last you years.

No need to work, just be by myself,

living free.

I'll be first in my family to go to college.

I've been saving up for years, but this will pay for everything.

Youse are all thinking way too small.

You gotta invest.

Put it into crypto.

Get in at the right moment, you can make your fortune.

What about you?

30 grand, you must have some plans.

Um...

Find somewhere to live, I guess.

Beyond that, I'd say I'll blow through it pretty fast.

Easy come, easy go, you know.

We could find somewhere together.

Because I'll need to find somewhere for Uni, so we could be roommates.

No offence, Alison, but I can't really see us hanging out after all this is finished.

Do you not have any real friends?

Eh... I didn't mean it like that.

No, it's fine. Honestly, it's fine.

Um...

I'm going to go and stretch my legs.

What?

You're making a big mistake.

From here on out, whatever happens to these people,

I won't be held responsible.

Ah, here.

It's not there, it's the top one.

The top one? I already tried the top one.

Alison look, I...

I didn't mean what I said.

Wakey, wakey.

Alison...

Alison, wake up! Guys...

- What? - Guys, help! Alison...

Help!

Alison...

- Christ... - Alison!

Alison!

Fuck!

Security breach. Initiating lockdown protocol.

30 seconds to lockdown.

Claire...

Claire, come on! We've gotta go.

20 seconds to lockdown.

10 seconds to lockdown.

Five...

Four...

Three...

Two...

Ahhhh...

Get the door.

I'm sorry...

Lockdown complete.

We... we were trying to get out, and then...

The door.

Alison, she's...

No, no, no!

Stay awake. Everyone, stay awake.

Whatever you do, don't go to sleep. Don't even close your eyes.

Listen to me...

If you fall asleep, you'll die.

What?

I'm telling you... I saw our scans. They--

- You saw our scans? - I snuck into Dr. Burke's office.

I... I knew something wasn't right.

For the last four days, our brains have been pushed into overdrive,

- and now they're shutting down. - What do you mean, "shutting down"?

- How does a brain go into overdrive? - What do you mean?

When you're asleep your brain is still active,

what you're feeling now, is your brain trying to shut itself down. The drug is--

- Are you telling us we're gonna die? - No.

No. Not if we stay awake.

We just need to stay awake until we can get out of here

and get help.

It looks like you're in a lockdown.

At Blackwood, safety is our number one priority.

It's an automated security protocol at the newer facilities.

For containing threats,

whether it's infection, security leaks,

bioterrorism, a million things.

For 24 hours the facility is sealed

and all lines of communication are cut off.

How did it happen?

I don't know...

Doctor Burke must have triggered it by accident somehow.

There has to be some way to override it.

It can't be overridden, it can't be disabled,

that's the whole point.

The head of the company could be in here, it wouldn't matter.

That door won't open until the clock runs down.

I found some smelling salts. Should be enough for five per person.

Hey, go easy. Ray!

- Ugh... - They've got to last us all night.

Only use one if it's an emergency, okay?

We've all got five, yeah?

What about these, some amphetamines, give us a proper boost.

No, no... hey.

Whatever you do, do not take any stimulants.

I wouldn't even drink coffee.

It's like...

Okay, imagine your brain is a computer. And it's on fire.

Okay, no, no... that's a bad metaphor.

Uh...

Okay, okay... I've got it.

Imagine your brain is a car, and it's on fire.

But you can still steer and your momentum will keep you moving.

That's why so long as we stay awake, we're all right.

But taking uppers, anything like that, you're just throwing petrol on the flames.

So that's the bad news.

But the good news is, it's completely treatable.

Once we're out of here, all they need to do,

is put us on immunosuppressants, keep us monitored

and maybe, worst case scenario, a medically induced coma.

What?

It sounds worse than it is.

Come on! We're gonna be all right.

All we need to do is last one more day.

Once those doors open, we're saved.

We've now been awake for over 100 hours.

As you can see, not looking so sexy,

but... enduring.

You're gonna wear yourself out.

Exercise is good, man. Keeps the blood flowing.

Still 20 hours to go.

Six survivors.

Battered but not broken. The mood is--

Hey, Attenborough, stop narrating everything.

You're doing my head in.

Someone needs to make a record of what's happening here.

When this is all over people need to be held accountable.

Actually yeah, you're right.

Malpractice.

Gross negligence.

These are just words.

We're human beings,

and no six-figure settlement could ever undo

the wrong that has been done to us here.

Can you put a price on our suffering?

5 million? 10 million?

Will 15 million make me whole again?

Nice.

Subtle.

I'm just tracking our progress.

Keeping an eye on things.

It'd be way too risky to try any treatment with what we have in here.

There's still so much I don't know about the drug and how it works.

So, for the moment,

our best bet is to hang tight.

And wait for help.

I've still got her blood under my fingernails.

Can't seem to get it out.

I know it's hard, but we need to stay positive.

We're still here, and we're going to be okay.

- Are we? - Of course we are.

This is the worst part. Now that we're off the drug,

the inflammation will be starting to subside and--

Okay, that's all I need for the moment.

Thanks for your help.

? Close your eyes little girl ?

? Go to sleep 'til the morning ?

? Night is here, so am I ?

? Keep you safe 'til the dawn ?

My name is Claire Brady.

And if you're watching this, it's because I'm dead.

This is a message for my Mum, Helen Brady.

She's a patient in St. James Hospital.

Palliative care ward.

So this is a twist, eh?

Turns out I had even less time left than you.

Took you 20 years to ruin your liver.

I only needed four days to fry my brain.

I guess it was cold of me not to return your calls.

Cold and hard, that's me.

Where'd I learn that I wonder?

I know you just wanted to tell me you're sorry, but...

sorry won't fix this.

It's already too late.

Ta-daa...

You're free.

What will you do now? So many possibilities.

Yep, that's what I figured.

- How many salts you got? - None of your business.

C'mon man, don't hold out on me now.

- Jesus, get over it, Ray. - Just give us one, will ya?

Vanessa...

- Can you spare a salt? - No.

What is it the Bible always says?

"Blessed art thou who shares."

Ah! That's not very God-like.

Marcus! You have salts, I know you do.

- Hey, just give me one, will you? - No, I'm sorry.

Just give me a salt, I'm just asking for one salt.

Leave him alone, Ray! We all got the same amount of salts.

It's not our fault you're a goddamn hoover.

You were one of those kids, weren't you?

Who always saved his Easter eggs every year,

so you'd have one left in May

and could lord them over everyone else. Act like Mister Bigshot--

- Hey! I don't believe in God. - What?

I said... I don't believe in God.

I told you this before.

I left home to get away from all that.

Look, do you have any idea what it's like,

growing up being told everything you'd done was a sin.

I hated him!

Jesus! Sorry... yeah.

You're all cracking up.

Okay...

You can handle this, Amir.

It's a test. You've never failed a test in your life.

You just need to keep working.

Stay focused.

Keep working. Stay focused.

Mild hallucinations.

To be expected after so long awake.

Just keep working. Stay focused.

Keep working, stay focused.

Keep working, stay focused...

? Close your eyes, little girl ?

? Go to sleep 'til the morning ?

? Night is here, so am I ?

? Keep you safe 'til the dawn ?

Claire.

You okay?

Come on.

How are you dealing with this so well?

I dunno.

I mean, it's tough. But...

I'm not scared, I guess.

I know I'm gonna be all right.

I wish I had your confidence.

See this? I was on a hike in the Sierras.

Fell. Shattered my ankle.

The pain was excruciating.

Thought for sure I wouldn't be able to walk.

I was alone,

a cold night was coming and I didn't want to freeze to death.

So... I walked.

You'd be amazed what you can do when you have to.

Okay...

Great plan. Barely passed biology in school.

I'm sure I'll have this cracked in no time.

Oh...

I'm trying to work up the courage to put my hand down on it.

I haven't had an easy life.

Me neither.

But I'm still not ready for it to be over.

Me neither.

Okay, look. Nothing's changed.

There's only 15 more hours to go.

But we've made it this far.

Oh!

Ah!

Hey!

This is it, you realize that?

We've lost two already. Any one of us could be next.

Do you think Blackwood expect us to walk out of here?

They have already written us off, and they're right.

Because if we carry on like this, we're dead.

So we've got two options.

We can sit around waiting to be rescued

by the same fuckers who did this to us in the first place.

Or, we work together and we find a way out.

I don't know about you, but I'm tired of waiting.

Right. So this is the facility.

Did an 8 year old draw this?

This is where they've sealed us off.

This is the exit and this is us here.

All we need to do is break through that wall

and we're out.

- It won't work. - How do you know?

I just know. Trust me, they build these places

so when they lock them down, there's no getting out.

Great. So that's one vote for don't try.

What do the rest of you think?

I thought you looked cold.

What?

Hey...

- I think this is it. I'm almost through. - What?

Yeah, yeah... pull it.

Yeah... yeah.

Now...

No, no, no, no!

What?

No, no...

No... fuck!

No!

It's a bomb shelter job.

It's the same as the door. There's no getting through that.

Okay look, that's not good.

But look, it's one wall.

We can try another one. We can tear the whole place down if we have to.

Why would the next wall be any different?

We're just wasting energy.

All right, let's think.

- We've gotta take those uppers. - No!

It's the only way we'll get through this.

- No, Amir said they'll only make us worse. - Fuck Amir, man!

Why are we even listening to him?

Because he's the closest thing we've got to a doctor.

Well, I don't see him out here. I don't see him coming up with new ideas.

Do you see him coming up with new ideas?

All right, I'll go talk to him.

How did he know?

How did... how did you know, Amir?

How did he know?

How did he know we'd never get through that wall?

I mean, he was right. So?

Yeah, but how did he know?

I've been on way more trials than anyone,

and I've never seen any shit like this.

But somehow Amir knows everything before it's about to happen.

He knows Blackwood, I guess.

Knows how they work.

He's only here because he was trying to get a job with them.

Maybe he already has one.

Think about it. What are the chances, this one guy on the trial

who knows everything about the drug, everything about the facility...

One person who can run tests,

take samples, keep everyone in line.

He's not your typical lab rat.

No, it never made sense he was on this in the first place.

This snotty med student in with all the lab rats.

Us fucking rejects, man.

Okay...

But how would Amir not have fallen asleep already?

No one who is not on the drug could have stayed awake this long.

Let's find out.

Amir...

We really need you in here.

You were right about the wall,

we're now just trying to figure out what to do next.

Look, whatever work you're doing can wait.

Amir!

I'm sorry.

I haven't been honest with you.

This is for you.

And the others.

It explains everything.

It's all my fault.

I caused the lockdown.

I broke their security and tried to make copies of our MRI scans.

I was so stupid!

I should have known what would happen.

Amir, no!

Amir, get up!

Did you not hear me? It's my fault we're trapped here.

So? All the more reason to help us find a way out.

- I told you, there's no way out. - There's no way out...

So everyone keeps saying!

Well then, can you fix us yourself?

- No. - Why not? You're smart.

You're nearly a doctor. You've got a whole lab full of stuff here.

Our brain is a car, right?

So if we're over-heating, can we...

open the hood? No, that sounds painful.

Can we... jump-start it,

or get out and push?

Wait, for real? I just gave you an idea?

We could use our momentum.

Methyl iodide poisoning basically mimics the effects of an ischemic stroke.

A strong enough dose would stop blood flow to our brain almost completely,

which would normally cause brain death,

but with these side effects...

there may be a grace period.

We take a shot of TPA right after the dose

and there'd be just enough time for the enzyme

to catalyze the clot to breakdown before the effects are irreversible.

- But is that a plan or just gibberish? - I don't know, you tell me!

I'm so tired, it's hard to tell if this makes sense or not.

Yes, yes! It sounds like a winner. Let's catalyze the enzyme.

I'm on board. Let's catalyze that shit.

- I'll go tell the others. - Okay.

- Claire... - There you are.

Listen, I was talking to Amir and... What's wrong?

- I don't think we can trust Amir. - What... why?

No, I don't... I don't buy it.

That sounds like one of Ray's guinea pig campfire tales.

I know, I thought so too.

I wasn't sure.

So I went through Amir's things and found these.

It's the uppers he told us not to take.

Did I just die?

Paul!

You're not dead! The power went out.

Something must have tripped. I think I saw the fuses before,

down by the MRI room.

It's okay.

Come on.

Ah, shit! I'm almost out of battery.

Oh... yes! Yes... I'm not finding it.

Fuck, my phone's dead.

? Close your eyes ?

Shit, I think I'm hallucinating.

Okay, keep calm. Focus on my voice.

Close your eyes.

- What did you say? - I said, focus on my voice.

Close your eyes.

It's okay. Mummy's here.

Just lie down. Close your eyes...

I'm not finding any fuses.

- Paul! - Oops! You lost him.

- Why won't you go to sleep! - Paul!

I'm so excited!

He's dead. They're all dead. You're all alone.

Go to sleep! Give up!

Bitch. Cunt. Die.

Claire...

Paul!

That was close.

Amir... where were ya?

I was looking for the fuses.

Vanessa... Thank God you're all right.

Guys, what...

- What's going on? - Have you been taking the uppers?

- What? - We found the empty pill bottles.

That was-- no, I didn't take them!

I poured them out. As a precaution! Bec--

Why are you backing away?

We're only asking questions.

No, please! Get your hands off me!

Ray... stop!

Paul, grab his other arm!

Paul... don't!

Ahhh!

- Have you all lost your minds? - Shut up!

Shut up.

You cut the power. I told you this would happen.

I told you. He knew we were onto him, so he tried to finish us off.

I didn't touch the fuses. I didn't even know where they were.

- Yeah, who did it then? - I don't know! They just blew. It happens.

You're working for Blackwood. Admit it.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Guys... guys, listen to me.

You're tired. You're scared. You're not thinking clearly.

Please just untie me,

and I'll explain everything.

You're acting crazy! You don't know what you're doing.

Please, Claire...

He's up to something.

I know he knows something and we're going to fucking figure it out, okay?

Figure it out.

- Do you think it's just him? - Could be.

Could be others. They could be watching us right now.

There could be secret rooms all over this place.

Secret rooms! Will you listen to yourselves?

We've gotta get the truth out of him.

And how are you going to do that?

Take a guess.

This is life and death. Do you want to play it nice and end up like Marcus?

Ray's right.

If Amir's hiding something we need to find out what it is.

And I think he's hiding something.

Listen to what you're saying.

What you're talking about doing to a human being.

I'm already going to hell.

We can't do this. We can't... Paul!

Paul, say something! We can't do this.

No... no, she's right.

We can't.

Fuck it, I'm doing it.

Ray... no!

No!

Here's what's gonna happen, right? I'm gonna take this knife,

and every time you lie to me, you're gonna get a little bit smaller.

- Please... please stop. Please don't. - Ray... no, no!

- Are you working for Blackwood? - Ray, you can't do this. He's--

Are you working for Blackwood.

He's got a cure!

I'm working on something.

It's not a cure. It's more of a stop-gap.

I think I can help us.

Buy us some time, at least.

Bullshit! No...

Nah, it's just another lie. He'll say anything to get out of this.

- No, you don't know that. - Amir...

What's the idea?

It's a methyl iodide solution.

It's simple to make, I can talk you through it.

No. I'm not taking anything he cooks up. It'll probably kill us on the spot.

I'll try it.

We'll make it, I'll test it.

What have we got to lose?

Okay, so it's at 75 degrees now, what's next?

Amir?

Amir...

Start adding the iodine.

Slowly. Don't let it overheat.

We've only got one shot at this.

That was a very stupid thing you did.

- You tripped the fuse. - I didn't trip the fuse.

I saw you do it.

I needed Amir to fall asleep.

None of you believed me, I had to prove he wasn't on the drug.

Are you going to tell the others?

It's a sedative. Fast acting.

I'm waiting for Claire to be distracted.

If you cover me, then I can get to Amir.

Then we'll find out if he's lying or not.

Damn, that's a lot better than my plan.

I'm too fucking tired.

Okay... you're almost there.

Now add the last of the sulphate and keep it at 70 degrees

until it's all distilled.

- Does that not hurt? - No.

I mean, yeah. But...

It's good. It keeps me sharp.

So walk me through again what's about to happen.

You take the formula, it makes you stroke out.

Shot of tPA treats the stroke, brings you back.

You should know though, if it doesn't work, it'll kill you instantly.

Yeah, I figured.

You know, I've been thinking.

Considering what we've been through, if we had to do this again.

I probably wouldn't sign up for this trial.

You know Blackwood get hundreds of applicants for their internship.

So when they asked me to come on this trial,

I thought they saw someone focused,

determined,

willing to put everything into their career.

But maybe what they saw was someone with no family,

no friends, no connections to anyone.

Someone nobody would miss.

I feel like I've lived my whole life wrong.

We get out of here, we get a second chance.

I don't know what I'd do with a second chance.

I don't even know what I want anymore.

I just want to see the sun again.

We've been in this basement so long, it's become like a distant memory.

That's not much of a goal.

It's a start.

Okay..

I think...

I think it's ready.

After the shot, wait 30 seconds before you give her the TPA.

Vanessa!

- Vanessa! - Vanessa...

- Get her up. - Vanessa!

Vanessa... Vanessa!

Vanessa...

Get the shot!

Amir, stop.

Amir, stop!

Go on...

Do it...

What do you want to know?

I'm the one with all the info, right?

Want me to tell you that we're all gonna die here?

That our lives are just data points on a spreadsheet?

That's it!

That's the big secret.

Claire... you all right?

- Claire... - I'm fine.

I'm just gonna go and see how much time we've got left.

? Close your eyes, little girl ?

? Go to sleep 'til the morning ?

? Night is here, so am I ?

? Keep you safe 'til the dawn ?

My name is Claire Brady.

This is a message for my Mum.

What was that song you used to sing to me as a kid?

I always wondered if you made it up.

Anyway, it's been stuck in my head all night.

It's funny the things that come back to you.

You were a real demon when you'd been drinking.

But the rest of the time, you were my Mum.

And I get it now.

How hard it must have been, why...

you couldn't stop.

Because...

even though every part of me is fighting against it,

I just...

I just really want to go to sleep.

Goddamn secret rooms...

Guys, you've gotta come and see this.

We're on to something.

Claire...

Just hold on, okay? I'll be back.

Listen to me. You are not just a stat in a spreadsheet.

They think we're nobodies, wait till we're on every news channel

telling our story.

We'll bring the whole fucking company down.

It's an autopsy room.

Paul!

I'm not listening to you.

You're only in my head.

But you're the smartest one here, Amir.

Who else should you listen to, if not your own head?

Claire?

You're relying on that girl to come and save you?

She's left you here, hasn't she?

Tied up,

all by yourself.

Even if they did find a way out,

do you think they'd let you come with them?

The only way you're walking out of here is alone.

Hey! Time is not on your side here.

You need to take control of the situation.

So that's it then, is it?

You're just giving up.

Frankly, I am disappointed.

You had so much promise.

This was a test Amir, and you failed.

You can't control the group.

You can't handle the sleep deprivation.

Didn't even notice the knife.

Thanks for being on my side.

I'm sorry I...

Sorry I couldn't...

They must use it to send up the bodies after autopsy.

It's a way out.

It's a fucking way out!

- I'll go get the others-- - No, wait.

We can just go.

Right now...

You and me.

Read your note.

Help!

Ray and Amir are both liabilities.

You know they are. We're safer without them.

We have to start thinking about ourselves. It's the only way we'll survive.

Claire...

This is it.

I'm going, I can feel it.

But you're going first.

I'm gonna make it hurt.

What was I doing?

Oh yeah.

I'll start with the eyes.

Unghh!

Ahhh!

Amir...

Amir, it's me. Put down the knife.

Come on, now.

Just two more to go.

Amir...

Come on...

Come on!

No! Paul!

Ahhh!

This is Paul Murray, making my final recording.

I am the last survivor of Blackwood Labs trial BRN14.

If I don't... if I don't survive,

on this phone, is the only--

On this phone is the only true record...

The only true record of what happened here.

Ahhhh!

Thank you for your patience. The lockdown has now ended.

Is this real?

Clear.

Clear.

Clear.

Clear.

Facility is clear.

All team, regroup by the door.

Okay, let's go.

Christ, watch out--

Ah!

After a four month investigation,

Blackwood Pharmaceuticals were today cleared

of any wrongdoing, in the incident at a Research Facility,

which left six dead, and one in a coma,

with little chance of recovery.

The investigation concluded

that Doctor Ellen Burke had been running a rogue trial,

and Blackwood had no knowledge of her actions.

Blackwood released the following statement.

"We feel vindicated,

"but still mourn the great loss of life

"in this senseless tragedy.

"Hopefully, this puts an end

"to any conspiracy theories circulating,

"which are an insult to both the victims

"and their families.

"Blackwood remain committed to our vision

"of a brighter future, through better medicine.

"Nothing will stand in our way."
