All language subtitles for The Long Walk UHD_ENGLISH

...spirit of our country.

Fellow citizens, still today,
on the 19th anniversary

of the war that tore
this great nation apart,

we continue
our nationwide recovery effort.

Right now, as this country watches
50 of our finest young men

prepare for the ultimate challenge,

let us join together
in reflection and hope.

We give thanks for the state
and the opportunity it provides...

...for the order it has instituted
for the good of society.

May it bring us all back to prosperity.

We pray for the poor, the hungry,

the unemployed, and those without shelter.

Help us transform hardship into hope,
scarcity into abundance,

- and division into solidarity.
- I just...

I still don't understand.

I think you could probably still change
your mind. I don't think it's..

The back-out date was yesterday.

But they would let you.

- I know it. The Major, he would--
- The Major would what?

You know what The Major would say.

This is my decision, okay? Not yours.

This is the best way. It's the only way.

- If your father was here...
- Okay, but he's not.

ID, please.

You brought the baseball?

- Yeah, I just.. I don't know.
- I made you these.

Oatmeal chocolate chip, your favorite.

Thanks, Mom.

All right, come here, baby.

- I love you.
- I love you too.

- Be a good boy, okay?
- Okay, I will.

- Okay.
- Okay.

All right, I love you better.

No, you don't. That's a fact.

Okay. All right,
I love you, Mom. Bye.

- No, wait! Wait!
- Mom, I can't. I can't.

No!

I know.

It's gonna be okay.

- It's gonna be okay.
- I can't.

Mom, it's just a few days.

I'll see you in a few days.

- I know. I know.
- I can't. I can't!

I gotta let you go, okay? Okay.

- Okay.
- Okay. All right, Mom.

Okay. Okay.

Okay, I love you, Mom.

Hey, uh, I'm Ray Garraty.

Pete. Peter McVries.

Nice to meet you.

You ready for this?

- A little jumpy, but...
- Yeah.

...maybe that's good?

Hey, what do you weigh?

178.

I'm 177.

They say heavier guys get tired quicker.

Oh, shit.

Look at Superman.

Yeah, he built.

No body fat on that guy. Jesus.

He's gonna be tough to beat.

Hey, what's your name?

Stebbins.

Oh, Jesus, Stebbins.

You some kind of
fitness nut?

Well, I don't think he wants to talk.

Yeah, all right. Fine by me.
I don't give a shit.

Hank Olson's the name. Walking's my game.

I'm Ray Garraty.
You can call me Ray.

Peter McVries.
You can call me McVries.

I'm Art Baker.

Pleasure to meet y'all.

It's fucking terrifying, ain't it?

Yeah. I ain't trying
to think about it too much.

Just wanna walk
and maybe make some friends.

Hey. Hey, are you okay?

Me?

Yeah. You're pacing.
Are you okay?

I'm just getting warmed up.

You have a few hundred miles
to get warmed up when we start.

What's your name?

Curly.

Okay, Curly. How old are you?

Eighteen.

Yeah, that kid lied to qualify.

Kid, if you're a day over 16,
I'll eat my fucking shoes.

Look at him.

Poor fucker doesn't know
what the fuck he's doing here.

Now, me?

I know exactly
what the fuck I'm doing here.

Gotta be aggressive.

I did my research on The Major.

He says you wanna win this thing,
you gotta be raring to rip.

Fuck, boys, I am raring to rip.

"Fuck, boys, I am raring to rip."

- Hey, fuck you.
- Just sounded like

- what you said, that's all.
- Raring to rip.

Yeah, you..
you sound like my...

my meemaw on the bowl in the morning, man.

Right, guys?

The fuck is a "meemaw"?

Fuck you.
I was just fucking around.

Hey, here he comes.

Shit on a stick.
It's The Major.

Sit down, boys.

- Keep hint 13 in mind.
- Hint number 13.

That's conserve energy whenever possible.

Yeah, shut up, Olson.

- We all read the rule book.
- Now,

as I call your name,
step forward and take your tags.

Put 'em around your neck,

and then go back to your place
until I instruct otherwise.

Ewing, James. Number one.

Smith, Patrick. Number four.

Barkovitch, Gary. Number five.

Baker, Arthur. Number six.

White, "Curly" Adam.
Number seven.

Sanders, Rank. Number 19.

McVries, Peter. Number 23.

Stebbins, Billy. Number 38.

Good luck, son.

Olson, Hank. Number 46.

Garraty, Raymond. 47.

Parker, Collie. Number 48.

Harkness, Richard. Number 49.

Now, fellas, line up by fives,

in no particular order.

Boys,

it takes heavy, heavy sac
to sign up for this contest,

and you've all got it.

You're men now.

As you all know,

our country has been in a period
of financial struggle since the war,

and we did the first Long Walk

all those years ago
to inspire and reintegrate

the value of work ethic.

Each year after the event,
there's a spike in production.

We have the means
to return to our former glory.

Our problem now

is an epidemic of laziness.

You boys are the answer.

The Long Walk is the answer.

When this is broadcast for all the states,

your inspiration will continue
to elevate our gross national product.

We will be number one in the world again!

Yeah!

Now, uh, I'm not going to go through
the whole rule book,

but it boils down to this.

Walk until there's only one of you left.

Maintain a speed of three miles per hour.

If you fall below the speed,
you get a warning.

If you can't make speed in ten seconds,
you get an additional warning.

Three warnings, you get your ticket.

Walk one hour at speed,

one warning is erased and so on.

If you step off the pavement,

you will get your ticket without warning.

The goal is to last the longest.

There's one winner and no finish line.

Any of you can win.

Any of you can do it
if you walk long and steady enough.

If you refuse to give up.

I look at each and every one of you,

and I see hope.

Now, boys,

who's set to fucking win?

I said,

- who's ready to fucking win?
- Yeah!

Luck to all, and remember,

anyone can win.

Hey, Pete.

Pretty fucking desolate.

No shit.

Thought there'd be more people,
I guess.

Major,

he doesn't allow spectators
until the final stretch.

Except for the fucking locals.

Smile, boys.

You're on candid camera.

Those aren't very candid.

If I spit at it, will it go away?

It's fucking creepy.

What is that?

Is that a wheat field?

Best in the world.

Are you from here?

Yeah, I'm from down state.

Ooh, so you the one.

- What do you mean?
- The one what?

Mr. Garraty here is the walker
from the home state.

Warning.
Warning, number 38.

Smart.

What's smart?

Taking a warning
while he's still fresh.

He gets an idea of what
our limit is.

Yeah, it seems
pretty fucking dumb to me.

Well, big boy's gonna have
no problem walking an hour

without getting another warning.

Then he'll have this one taken off
to have a clean slate.

That's a good strategy.

Hey, you think it's smart
stuffing your face

with all those jelly sandwiches
this early?

Fuck off.

All right.

Olson, that's gross.

Bro, what the fuck?

- What?
- What'd he do?

- Putin' gum in..
- Put tin his pocket.

It's fucking gum.
It's not fucking biodegradable.

Don't wanna litter

all over the fucking place.
Jesus Christ.

All right, Hank,
you do realize that

this whole road
is one big piece of litter, don't you?

Yeah, he right.

Warning.
Warning, number five.

I got a rock
in my fucking shoe.

What the fuck is he doing?

Holy shit!

What the fuck?

Warning, number five.
Second warning.

Fuck, he's still fucking
down there.

What's he doing, man?

Holy shit.

- Go on, get up!
- Get up, Barkovitch.

Jesus Christ! That dumb fuck's
actually gonna get his fucking ticket.

Hey, come on, get up, man.
Stop playing.

Warning, number five.
Third warning.

- Get the fuck up, Barkovitch!
- Come on, man.

Dumbfuck.

Idiot.

Dumbass.

Better not trip, fucko.

Y'all don't even know.

Just bought myself a rest.

All I see is that
for your lousy 30-second rest,

now you gotta walk three goddamn hours
without getting a warning.

The hell you need a rest for, anyway?
We just fucking started.

We'll see who gets
his ticket first, fuckwad.

It's all part of my fucking plan.

Yeah, well, his plan and
the stuff that comes out of my asshole

bear a suspicious resemblance.

What you boys think about the wish
and the big prize?

Personally, I can't stop thinkin'
about all that money.

Rich men don't enter
the kingdom of heaven.

All right, Hallelujah, Brother Garraty.

There'll be refreshments
after the meeting.

Are you a religious fella, Garraty?

Uh, no, not particularly,
but I'm no money freak either.

Okay.

Look, I'm a religious fella.

I ain't ashamed to admit it.
I'm here for the money.

Know it's easy to bad-mouth money

when you ain't grown up
dirt poor in Baton Rouge.

Believe me.

Growin' up dirt poor in Baton Rouge,

it ain't no picnic.

It's one big, sweaty hog-fest.

Listen, I wouldn't mind
havin' some money, but...

there's more important things.

This Walk doesn't matter, and the prize,
it certainly doesn't matter.

What?

That's some bullshit, Garraty.

Okay.

All right, well, look at it like this.

When the system backs people
into a corner,

points to an escape hatch and says,
"That's the only way out,”

of course, we're all gonna try
to go through it.

We've been set up to believe
it's the only way, the honorable way.

I mean, even though only 50 of us
get picked in the lottery,

all of the boys in this country
put in for it.

I'm not exaggerating.

Everybody puts in for it,
even though it's not required,

'cause we're all so fucking desperate.

What does that tell you?

What?

Nobody signs up for this. Not really.

It's not smart to talk bad
about the Long Walk.

- That's dissent, and it's punishable by..
- Arrest me.

You gonna arrest him?

Didn't think so.

No, no, no, you..
you got a point, Garraty.

They say we have a choice
to sign up for the lottery,

but do any of you know
anyone ever who hasn't?

Exactly.

But I don't agree with you about money.

Baker's right.

It may not be the most important thing,
but it's pretty fuckin' high up there.

The right person could do
a hell of a lot of good

with the right amount of money.

Yeah, but how many people do you know
with a Hella lotta money

who are doin' a Hella lotta good?

In my opinion, it's a myth.

Won't be a myth when I win.

That's exactly what I want
that money for.

Smoke?

No, I'm okay.

Yeah, I don't smoke neither.

Figured I'd learn.

Hey, hint ten?

"Save your wind.

If you smoke ordinarily,

- try not to do so on the Long Walk."
- Who cares?

- Will you shut the fuck up, Olson?
- It is crap, though. It is crap.

It is pretty shitty.
Anyone else want this?

- I don't smoke.
- Bring it here, man.

A religious fella smokes, does he?

Hey. Hey, ain't nothin' in the Bible
about no tobacco, now.

- Really?
- Okay.

Let me give you a light.

Watch where the fuck you're going,
you fucking dipshit.

What's his problem, right, boys?

Hey, I'm Harkness.

Hey, Harkness.

You're Ray Garraty,
hometown boy. Number 47.

- Yeah.
- McVries, strong, 23.

I suppose you're wonderin'

why I'm writin' down
everybody's names and numbers.

No, actually, I wasn't wonderin'.

Maybe 'cause you with the squads.

Me? No, no, no, no.

I'm writin' a book, you see?

A book about the Long Walk.

- I see that.
- Yeah.

Book about the Long Walk
from the insider's point of view?

Make me rich.

Oh, if you win, you won't need
a book to make you rich.

Yeah, I mean, I suppose not, but...

...still make one heck

of an interesting book, I think.

Warning.
Warning, number seven.

I've got a fucking Charley horse!

Shit. Come on, man. Come on.

Warning, number seven.

- All right, Curly, come on.
- Second warning.

Come on, come on.

- All right, just keep it slow.
- Okay. Okay.

Just fast enough.
And steady, okay?

All right?

Come on, put your weight on me.

- Put your weight on me. Okay?
- You got this, boy.

- No fuckin' around. Keep it movin'.
- Okay. All right.

You're gonna keep walkin'.
Listen to Pete, okay?

Try to keep walking.
You're with us. You're with us.

Come on, keep walkin'. Keep walkin'.
That's right. That's right.

We out here in the sunshine
just havin' fun.

- Gonna be all right, okay?
- She's loosening now.

- Okay, good. Okay, good.
- Yeah. Yeah, okay.

- All right. See this?
- Okay.

You gotta promise me
that you're gonna keep walking.

Yeah, I promise.

- You promise?
- I promise.

- I promise. Okay, okay.
- All right?

- You're okay, right?
- Come on, kid.

- All right, yeah. Yeah.
- You're all right?

Come on.
Come on, stick with me.

- Stick with me.
- Yeah, that's it!

- Stick with me.
- That's it, kid!

- Stick with me.
- Come on, boy.

- We're right on pace.
- Come on.

We're right on pace. Stick with me, okay?

- Come on, Curly. That's right.
- Just keep walking.

- Just keep walking, Curly.
- One, two, three, four.

- That's it, you got it.
- Just keep walking.

- Come on, young in. You got it.
- Just keep walking.

We just gotta stay
at this pace.

- We just gotta stay at this pace.
- We good, we good. Come on, now.

Come on, little boy.
You got this, man.

Come on, Curly.

Come on, Curly.

- It's just you and me. Come on.
- Eyes up.

- Come on, Curly.
- Eyes up!

- Come on, Curly.
- Come on, young in.

- Come on, Curly.
- That's it, boy.

- Come on.
- Okay.

- Come on, Curly, come on!
- You got this! You got this!

- Warning, number seven.
- Come on!

Keep walking! Get up!

- Third warning.
- Get up, kid!

Get up, young in! Get up!

Oh, it ain't fair!

It ain't fair!

It ain't fucking fair!

Fuck!

- Warning, number 47 ...
- Garraty!

- ...number six...
- Come on!

- ...number 23.
- Can't stop.

Let's go, keep movin'.

Keep movin'.

One of our comrades
has fallen.

Let's remember him fondly
and celebrate his bravery.

There will be many more,

but none quite as glory-filled
as the very first and the very last.

Today, we walk for Curly.

Let's hear it, boys!

For Curly!

Goddamn right!

Hey, what is it?

You and The Major.

Canteen. 47 callin' for canteen.

Hey, why'd you touch that carbine?

Like knockin' on wood, I guess.

You a dear boy, Ray.

I gotta take a leak.

Watch out, boys!

Incoming!

- Oh, what the hell?
- Oh, man!

You got on my shoes!

Watch where you point
that thing, man!

Jesus fucking Christ, McVries!

Now, that is a relief.

Hey.

You gettin' tired?

No.

Been tired for quite a while now.

What, you mean you're not?

Listen, Ray.

It's like The Major said,
ain't no finish line.

That's the biggest mind-fuck in this race.

- Would you agree?
- I wouldn't disagree.

It's just, you know,
I'm already feelin' it.

- I'm not sure how much longer I can--
- No, no, no, Ray, Ray. Come on, now.

That's how everybody thinks.

But you see, we,
we gotta think different.

We don't think about makin' it to the end,
we think about moments.

Just makin' it to the next moment.

Yeah. What do we think about now?

Well, that one's easy.

We just gotta make it through
this goddamn heat, boy.

Oh, my God.

- It's a scorcher.
- You got that right.

Hey, Ray.

What you said back there
about the Long Walk,

and how no one ever really volunteers...

Yeah?

Where'd it come from?

My dad said it.

Your dad's one smart
motherfucker.

Yeah, I think so too.

Hey, just go on dancing with me
like this forever, compadre,

and I'll never tire.

Hey, we'll scrape our shoes on the stars
and hang upside down from the moon.

You a poet, Pete?

In days past, I would've liked
to have been a... a songwriter.

But it ain't those days,
so I guess I'm stuck here riff tog for you.

Hope it's not too bad.

- Ain't too bad.
- Hey, bud.

You're, uh, Raymond Garraty, right?

I'm Pearson.

I think you got
a secret admirer over there.

Ray, Ray, I love you!

Come on, man. She must be like 14.

I love you, Ray!

Maybe she just wants
your autograph, that's all.

Hey, I thought
spectators weren't fuckin' allowed

- 'cause we're on television and shit.
- Get out of here, man.

Come on.
Don't be a sourpuss, Olson.

The boy's got a fan.
Let him have his fun.

- Thanks, Pete.
- Hey, don't thank me too much.

I like you, but if you fall over,
I won't pick you up.

We're all in this together, right?

No harm in keeping
each other amused.

Do you know what?
I take it back.

They say you shouldn't make friends
on the Long Walk, but fuck it.

I sorta like you three.

Even you, Olson.

- Fuck off!
- No, I'm serious!

Hey, hey, hey. A short friendship
is better than no friendship, right?

- That's what I've been ea yin', man.
- That's what I'm be ea yin'.

Come on, man.
Let's be Musketeers.

How the fuck are we gonna
be Musketeers?

- There's four of us.
- Come on, now.

We stick together
till we're all that's left.

How about that?

- All for one!
- And one for all.

Nah. And again. I need to hear it louder.

- All for one!
- And one for all!

- Hell, yeah!
- Yeah, baby, you know..

- Yeah, not not you, not you.
- You need a..

You know y'all sound
like a bunch of fucking queers, right?

Oh, you trying to..
you trying to suck this dick, Barkovitch?

Sounds like you wanna eat
my fuckin' meat, you sick fuck.

Fuck! Ah!

My legs feel funny.

It's like the muscles
are all turning baggy.

Hey, relax.

Happened to me a few miles back.
It passes.

Warning. Number one.

Oh, shit.

Hey, man, that's Ewing.

Like, he's shaking and shit.

Warning. Number one.
Second warning.

Must have some medical shit
he didn't report.

Hey, back off, Barkovitch!

Barkovitch, go peddle
your papers, little man. Go.

Warning. Third warning.
Number one.

Why won't they just
fucking end it?

Hey, y'all should be fuckin' Smilin'.

The odds just went up for us. Yeah?

I keep hoping that part gets easier.

That's what I'm afraid of.

Probably a nice place to live.

God, spare me nice places to live.

You know, if I ever get out of this,

I'm gonna fornicate
till my cock turns blue!

Okay.

I've never been so horny in my life
as I am right this minute.

- Ain't that strange?
- It is fuckin' strange.

Yeah.

Just a little bit, right?

Hey, I could even get horny for you, Ray,
if you didn't smell like my morn's asshole.

You're gonna get me a fuckin'--

- Gonna get my ticket, my man.
- Oh, my God, that smells so...

Yo, Long Dong Silver, that's me.

I'll fuck my way across the seven seas.

Nah, Sinbad.

What?

You're thinking of Sinbad.

You know, Sinbad the Sailor?
That's the seven seas guy.

Did you not hear that
I don't give a fuck?

- Long John Silver lives...
- I'm trying to fuck.

...on fucking Treasure Island.

- What the fuck?
- Just a fucking nerdy thing

- to say, you know?
- What, I'm a nerd

'cause I read fuckin' books and shit?

I guess so.

You think that shit-ass
has walked off his warnings yet?

I mean, he must've.

Been what? Three hours, maybe.

Yes, I'm fucking clean
on warnings, fuck faces.

- Okay.
- Good ear.

Hey, what is that?

This is raw ground venison.

It's good energy.

Oh, God.

You off your trolley, Musketeer.

Gonna puke all over the place.

Hey, in France,
they call it steak tartare.

It's a delicacy.

Ooh. Yeah, well, in France,
they ain't so smart.

Yeah, Renoir and Camus
were idiots.

Look, I don't know about
any of that fucking Camus shit,

but I do know that they eat
the fucking legs of frogs over there.

That shit is fuckin' disgusting.

- That ain't disgusting.
- Tastes like chicken wings, apparently.

- God. Ah!
- You got that right.

- Ow! Sh...
- Oh, hey. Keep up, keep up.

Keep up. Keep walking. Come on.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm all right.
- I'll keep you up.

It's the... fucking jelly-leg thing.

- Okay.
- Kinda went away for a while,

but it's coming back now.

I just don't know
what the hell I gotta adjust.

Maybe stop talking so much, buddy.

- What's your speed, Olson?
- Relax, okay?

Sure.

It's 3.4.

Oh, yeah, me too. I'm assuming you guys?

Let's shave 0.3 off.

- All right.
- Oh, shit.

- Holy fuck.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, that's good.

I really feel the fuckin'
difference.

- Hey, so do .
- Yeah.

- Me too.
- I'm feeling better too.

Let's not stay here
for too long, though.

You know, in the meantime, Pete...

wanna tell us about that scar?

Baker's right.
Maybe we just...

we keep quiet.

Okay.

Come on, don't be
a fuckin' litterbug, Garraty.

Oh, go fuck yourself, Olson.

It's bad
for the mother fuck in' ozone layer.

Shit! Shit!

- Ah, goddamn it. Hey, hey, hey, hey.
- Oh, God.

It's all right. You're gonna get
more rations. You're fine.

Yeah, but...

that was it for me today, 'cause...

well, I'm allergic to the SPAM.

I gave all that shit away.

Fuck.

Fuckin' hungry.

Here you go, Hank.

I don't like it anyway.

Thanks, Ray.

Musketeer.

Hey, man,
I've been meanin' to ask you,

"Rank", is it short for, like, "Ranklin"?

Like, "Ranklin Delano Roosevelt"
or something?

It's "Rank."

Yeah, but what's it short for?
I mean, like...

Just "Rank."

You're saying your mama
named you fucking "Rank"?

Yeah.

No fuckin' way.
You're fuckin' with me.

Your goddamn name is "Rank"?

Oh, my fuckin' God, no way!

Oh, your mom must've failed
with the old coat hanger thing,

and she must have just had to take it out
on you in some other way.

- Ooh! Buddy!
- Warning. Number five.

Come on, fuck face.
You want me to dance on your grave?

- Warning. Number 19.
- I'll do it all day.

Oh, shit! Okay.

- Break it up.
- Come on, Rank.

Don't let him fucking kill you.

Asshole, leave the kid alone
before I pull your fuckin' nose off

- and make you fuckin' eat it.
- Okay, meathead.

Come on, sissy boy.

Can't take a fucking joke?

Fuck you!

Okay. Okay.

Well, Rank, one more thing.

- Let it go.
- Don't take the bait, Rank!

I think your mama was givin' out coupons
for blowjobs on 42nd Street.

I was thinkin' of taking her up on it.
What do you think about that?

Second warning. Number 19.

- Get up, Rank. Get up, Rank.
- Get up, Rank.

- Oh, God. Oh, God!
- Get up. Get up.

- Get up! Get up!
- Get up.

- Get up!
- Warning. 19.

- Get up! Get up, Rank!
- Third warning.

Get the fuck up! Hey!

Fuck! Barkovitch, you fuckin' asshole!

Hey, Barkovitch.

Hey, Barkovitch!

You're not just a pest no more.

- Now, you a murderer!
- You can't fucking say that shit, man.

- Second warning.
- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

- Number five.
- I didn't do that shit.

- I didn't fuckin' touch him.
- You murdered that man!

He came after me, man.

- Shut the fuck up. Hey, look.
- He murdered that man.

Collie, you saw that shit, right?
We're the fuckin' same, man.

I know, you like to talk,

- I like to talk. We like to have a..
- I'm nothing like you, you motherfucker.

Say it again,
you'll be chewing concrete.

Fucking killed that kid,
for Christ sakes.

Fuck off! Okay? Fuck you.

All of you.

Why don't you go back
and dance on him, huh?

Boogie on his back a little.
Entertain us.

I know you got that gash
sucking cock yourself, Scarface.

Don't fuck with me.

I can't wait to see your brains
all over the fuckin' concrete, Barkovitch.

You know, I'll cheer when it happens.

You fuckin' piece of shit.

Fuck!

Hey, man.
Look at that crow over there.

Fuck.

Spooky bullshit.

Have y'all had to poop yet?

I'm rationing. Trying to avoid it.

- That's smart. Listen...
- Warning, number 45.

...there's something real bad
happenin' up ahead.

It's so gross.

I don't even think
I can write about it in the book.

It might kill the commerciality of it.

Commerciality?

Yes, the overall sales potential,
you know, the people..

Yeah, we know what it is, man.

Okay.

Well, listen,

word's been coming down the line,
this guy Ronald, 45,

ooh, he's got the shits real bad.

- Warning, number 45.
- Gross!

Second warning.

Disgusting!

Come on, 45.

Let's go! Keep walking!

Come on, man.

Let's go, man.
Get it out. Keep it coming.

Warning, 45. Third warning.

- Damn!
- Hey, idiot!

- Pull up your fucking pants and walk.
- Come on, man, get up!

It's better to be dirty
than fucking dead.

Hurry up and fucking walk.
Let's go!

Just let it roll down
your fucking legs!

Come on, man.

Let's go!

Oh, my God.

- Damn.
- You won't avoid it, boys,

unless you wash out quick.

The last 20 always have to shit.

Shut the fuck up, Stebbins!

What does it matter?

Let's just hope it happens quick.

I'm proud of you, boys.

You got sac.

Swing it heavy as you cover these miles,
heavy and long.

Where else in the world
would you have an opportunity like this?

Nowhere is the answer.

Win that prize.

Your first night is almost upon you.

For some of you, it will be the last.

But remember,
with determination, pride, and ambition,

you will see the dawn.

You okay, compadre?

Yeah, I'm all right.

I wanna tell you. It's just...

Gotta wait till morning, all right?
It'll be our next...

Moment.

Moment. Exactly.

Okay.

Okay, sold.

In Dublin's fair city

Where the girls are so pretty

I first set my eyes

On sweet Molly Malone

Warning. Warning, 47.

Oh! Wakey-wakey, my boy.

That's you. Rise and shine.

What time is it?

Uh, it's 3:45.

- But I've been..
- You've been dozing for hours, yep.

That's your mind,
usin' the old escape hatch.

Don't you wish your feet could?

You know, I was sleeping too.

Ain't it strange we can do that?

Doesn't make any fucking sense,
does it?

I mean, you know,
I was even dreaming.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Yeah, what about?

Uh, I was dreaming about my mom.

Yeah.

And, uh, she used to sing me this lullaby

that was so sweet, you know?

- Yeah.
- That's good, Ray.

- Yeah.
- See, that's the stuff

that will get us through.

- Yeah.
- Come on.

- Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Tell me about your mom.

- What's her name?
- Uh, Mom.

Fuck off, man.
You know what I'm talking about.

Ginnie.

Jenny?

- Ginnie.
- Jenny.

Ginnie. Like, uh, like "gin."

Like, um, you know,
what they make the martinis with.

Yeah.

- I bet she a real looker too.
- I'mma punch you in your face.

- Get the fuck outta here, Pearson.
- How'd that lullaby go?

- Break off, man. Go chew on your foot.
- Fuck yeah, she's a looker.

Oh, my God.

- I saw her at the fucking startin' area.
- It's so fucking annoying.

- Everyone woke up fucking funny, right?
- I swear to God.

- Yeah, literally.
- You're funny, Olson.

- You're funny, Olson.
- She's a beautiful lady.

I don't know
what you gettin' all PO'd for.

I hope you get
one, two, three warnings. Holy shit.

Olson, stop talking
about people's mamas.

Thank you, Harkness.

Warning, 46.

- I...
- First warning.

You know, um...

she doesn't sing
the lullaby anymore, though.

- Warning, number 11.
- You know?

Pete, I miss her.

I gotta tell you, I didn't realize
how much I could fucking miss her.

You know you have
to win to see her, Ray.

I think that I'll see her in Freeport
'cause we live there.

- 25, second warning.
- You know? But..

I just gotta make it
till there, I guess.

Yeah.

- Yeah.
- You got a girl, Ray?

Um, yeah, yeah....

Yeah, I did...

You know, I had to end it
because of this.

- So, that was that.
- Number 33.

- That's too bad, but smart.
- Second warning.

Yeah, I think so too.

- Yeah.
- Yeah. What about you, Pete?

You got a lady?

No, Ray.

No, I don't.

Warning, 47.

- Second warning.
- Fuck me. Fuck.

You dreaming about
your boyfriend's dick in your mouth?

You see
something green, Barkovitch?

Number 12.

Just your scaredy little fuckin' ass.
That's all.

First warning.

- Fuckin' hate that fucking guy.
- Yeah, me too.

- Just keep walking.
- Oh, fuck!

Warning, 47.

- Third and final warning.
- Come on, Ray, listen.

- Just three hours.
- Fuck.

Just three hours,
and your slate is wiped clean.

- Come on, just keep wa..
- Warning, 18.

- Look, shut up, Pete. Shut up! Shut up!
- Second warning.

Come on, stop acting
like you don't want me to get my ticket.

I know you're just like
the rest of them, man.

Stop pretending
like you don't wanna see me

with a fucking bullet
in the back of my head!

Second warning.

I was just trying to help.

Come on, step into it,
brothers!

Hey, who wants to race me
to the fucking top?

Shut the fuck up,
you fucking freak!

- Fuck me. Fuck!
- Make me!

Lotta you
are gonna die on this hill.

Maybe more than half.

Happened once six years ago.

- Twenty-eight in total.
- Oh, shit! Shit!

- Come on.
- There we go.

Number eight.

Number 43.

Come on, four-eyes.
You're dying tonight.

You're dying tonight!

- Come on!
- Final warning.

- Number 30.
- Come on, Olson!

Final warning.

You ain't gonna fuckin' make it,
Garraty.

Please! I'm okay! I'm okay!

You're gonna fucking die tonight,
Garraty. I can fucking feel it.

You're gonna fucking die tonight, man.

Final warning.

Take your time, baby.
Take your time!

Fuck.

Don't look behind,
Garraty.

Got a gun to your fucking head,
fucker!

I can feel it!

You're gonna fucking give in, aren't you?

Gun to your fucking head,
Garraty!

Gonna be the last thing
you fuckin' hear, man!

How you holdin' up?

Not good. I... I feel faint.

Compadre, you can do this.

Pour your canteen
over your head.

You little fucker,
I'm still here.

I'm fucking here!

There you go. There you go.

Now, keep putting one foot
in front of the other.

- Okay. Okay.
- That's it.

Now, refill.

Canteen, 47, canteen.

You get paid to shoot me,
not look at me, motherfucker!

Ray.

Top of the hill.

- We made it.

No, no, no, no, no.
Don't slow down.

Do not slow down.

Keep moving.

You'll catch your breath.

Pete, I didn't mean
what I said back there, okay?

- Forget it, man.
- No, I owe you an apology.

- Forget it.
- Oh, Pete, I owe you...

I can't...

- It's all right.
- Okay. Okay.

It's all right.

Okay.

Hey, you know I didn't mean it, right?

It's all good.

It's all good. Let it out.

Okay.

- Don't be fucking dumb.
- Okay.

- Keep the pace.
- Okay.

- Keep the pace.
- Okay.

Um, what about--
what about the rest of them?

The Musketeers?

Musketeers are all good.

Okay.

Keep it moving.

Keep moving.

You got it.

You got it.

All he needs is a pitchfork.

Talk to me, Pete. I'm fading.

You think you'll win, Ray?

I need to.

We all do.

Yeah, I.. Yeah, to survive.
I get it, but..

I need to for other reasons.

Okay. But you think you will?

No, Pete.

No, I don't.

How about you?

I stopped thinking I had any real chance
around 11 last night.

You know, I had an idea

that when the first guy fell off,

the soldiers were pointing their guns,

and when they pulled the triggers,

little pieces of paper
with the word "bang" will pop out.

The Major would go, "April Fools,"
and we'll all go home.

Do you know what I'm saying?

Yeah, Pete, I do.

Yeah.

Yeah, it took me a while
to realize the real gut truth of this.

This is walk or die.

Simple as that.

Not survival of the physically fittest.

If it was, I'd have a good chance, but...

There are mothers who'd lift a fucking car
if their kid was pinned underneath.

The brain, Garraty.

Not man or God.

It's something in the fucking brain.

I don't have that.

I don't wanna beat people that badly.

And I think, when the time comes,

when I'm tired enough, I...

I think I'll just sit down.

I hope that's not true, Pete.

I'll outlast Barkovitch, though.

That I can do at least.

We can both do that.

Oh. How many people are left?

Word came up,
we lost 14 last night.

Which means 18 left, I think.

It's thinnin' out, Ray.

More than 5% chance now.

Did you walk off your warnings?

Yes, I did.

Ray, you know it's true morning now.

You gonna tell me?

What a dipshit state this is.

Fucking trees
and one-horse towns every place.

Is there a city
in this whole fucking place?

You know, it's funny, Collie,

we like to breathe
fresh air instead of smog.

Ain't no smog in Sioux Falls,
you fucking hick.

Ah, right, no smog.
Just a lot of, what is it, hot air?

Now, now, boys. Come on.
Let's settle this like gentlemen.

First one to get his head blown off
has to buy the other one a beer, huh?

- How about that?
- I don't like beer.

Fuckin' bumpkin.

He's buggy.

You know, you seem
buggy too, Ray.

Fuck me.
Is everyone buggy this morning?

I bet Olson's got the bugs too.
Hey, Olson!

- Hey, Hank!
- Hey, come on, come on, McVries.

Leave him alone, man.

He ain't had a good night.
He ain't doing so well, either.

Hey, how'd you sleep today? Huh?

"Cause I slept just fucking great.

Hey, Olson!
You wanna go for a walk?

Go to hell.

Come on. What?

- What'd you say?
- Go to hell. I said fucking...

Go to hell!

Just trying to keep it interesting.

Warning.

Warning, 49.

My ankle.

My ankle is all twisted up.

Warning.
Second warning, 49.

Come on, Harkness.
Just keep it moving.

One foot in front of the other.
You got this.

Hey, get out of here!

Yeah, you! Get out of here!
You don't wanna see this!

Scat!

Warning.
Third warning, 49.

Final warning.

Get out of here, man!

I'm gonna go...

Ah, it's so fucked.
This thing is so fucked!

It's all so fucked!

You're too emotional, Garraty.
That'll get you in the end.

You know, you hardly talk,
but when you do,

it's just fucking garbage!

I think
a fucking cold motherfucker like that

would just probably win the whole thing.

Harkness, man.

Poor ol' Harkness.

Why don't you write him
a fucking poem, then?

Actually, you know what?

You should write him a song, songwriter.

Why don't you kiss my ass, Killer?

Hey, don't fucking say that shit, man.

You're fucking wrong to say that, man.

I'm not fucking wrong.
You're fucking wrong, man.

Oh, yeah? What you gonna do?

I got plans for you, motherfucker. Okay?

Ray... you good?

I mean, I'm...

I'm better than fucking Harkness, I guess.

That's good, Ray.

Remember, we can't have it
both ways.

Hey, Hank.

I'm sorry for busting
your balls, man.

I really am.

Give yourselves
due kudos, boys.

Let's hear it.

You made it 100 miles.

That's a goddamn accomplishment.

Keep on. The prize awaits.

I mean, how the heck
he always look so fresh?

He even human?

It's not a trick.

The Major sleeps at night, after supper.

He even showers.

That ain't fair.

It's not about fair.

How are ya, fucking fuckhead?

You goddamn bag.

You gettin' sick, Stebbins?

Oh, wouldn't you like that, Garraty?

Just allergies.

I get 'em every spring.

Oh, shit! He's running for it!

- Warning, 31.
- Oh, boy! Come on, now!

Fuck, man,
that just woke me up.

Boy, I'd kill
for a foot massage right now.

If I win this,

if I win, I swear to God,

I might be tempted to use my wish

for a foot massage
right there on the road.

You serious, Baker?

No, man, of course not.

I'm asking to have one of them...

What you call 'em?

One of them space rockets.

Yeah, those space rockets.
Take me to the moon.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, I always wanted to go to the moon.

Anywhere's better than here.

Hey, you know,
that's not a bad wish, Baker.

Remember that one kid that..
Well, he wished for...

I think it was a pet elephant.

Yeah.

Yeah, and they gave it to him.

They brought it out
with a saddle and everything,

and he just rode it home.

Yeah.

They really will give you
anything you want.

That's why I'm asking to go to the moon.

I gonna wish for ten naked ladies.

Oh, shit. There he is.
I thought we lost you.

I'm fine.

The fuck you gonna do
with ten naked ladies?

Uh, you said
you were gonna be nice, McVries.

That's a stupid fucking wish, Olson.

How is that a stupid fucking wish?

- You fruity or something?
- No, that's not the point, Olson.

All I'm saying is that when you win,
you get like a gazillion dollars.

You can pay for ten naked ladies

to come over to your house
whenever you'd like.

It's just, you know...

When you win, you should wish
for something that you can't pay for.

Oh, no, I don't wanna have to fucking pay
for my naked ladies. That's gross.

Hey, you do realize
if you get your wish,

someone's gonna have to pay the ten ladies
to get naked for you, right?

- Okay, I never thought about that. Wow.
- No, you didn't.

Shit.

What would you wish for,
McVries?

I had a wish for a long time,
for years, actually, but...

I've changed my wish
in the last couple days.

From now on, I'm gonna wish
that Long Walk has two winners.

"Cause then,
then in years to come,

people can have hope that maybe
their friends just might make it.

Ah, they'll never allow that shit.

Well, hell if I don't try.

- That's beautiful, Pete.
- Oh, fuck off, man.

No, I'm not fucking with you.
I'm dead serious.

That's really fucking goddamn
beautiful.

Well, I still think
ten naked ladies is a fucking no-brainer.

- Oh, Jesus.
- How about you, Garraty?

Uh, no, I'm not saying.
It's like a birthday wish, you know?

- Oh, come on, man. Come on.
- I'm not trying to jinx it.

Come on, Garraty. Come on.

The chances it's gonna be you,

or any one of us for that matter,
is slim to none.

What's the harm?

Chances are getting
better and better.

And, you know,
I'm feeling pretty good today, so...

- Look at you.
- There you go.

But, uh, I don't know.
How many of us are left?

Well, one, two, three, four, five, six.

There's around 15, probably.
I don't know.

Those are no longer bad odds.

This ain't enjoyable at all anymore.

There's no fucking flavor.

Talking about the piece of gum?

- Oh, God. Spit it out, man.
- That's so gross.

Oh, what can I say?
I'm a superstitious motherfucker.

I got this feeling in the depth
of my gut.

As long as this gum lasts,
so do.

When she goes, I go.

We gotta make it through this thing
together, me and the gum.

That's as beautiful
as it is disgusting, Olson.

No, no, no, no.

- Don't change the subject now, Garraty.
- No, I'm not.

You ain't here for the money, right?

Give us a nibble. What you here for?

Listen, I'll tell you this.

I want my wish to change things.

You know? Maybe stop
this whole thing altogether.

"You can't wish for things
that cause changes

- in a state's policies and procedures.”
- Oh, my God, Olson.

- That's rule number..
- No, that's not what

I'm talking about, my man.
I'm just saying,

I'm not wishing
for something to change.

My wish, if I get it,
might enact change.

- You know, indirectly.
- Fuck are you hiding, Garraty?

Ain't these supposed to be
your best fucking friends?

Hey, shut the fuck up, killer?

Go find your own circle, man.

Hey, gotta be careful
saying that kinda stuff out loud, man.

The Major will have you shot
for talking about ideas like that.

No, I know.

Just, um...

I don't know. I figure,
within the next two days,

I'm either gonna be dead or the winner.

Might as well speak while I can.

Hey, he's right.

You know, you right, Garraty.

- Fuck the Long Walk.
- There you go, Pete.

- Hey, fuck The Major!
- There you go.

- Fuck the Long Walk!
- Fuck the Long Walk!

- Hell, yeah, Collie!
- Fuck The Major!

- Come on, Baker, what you got?
- Fuck the Long Walk!

What you got, boy?

- Screw the Walk, man.
- Fuck the Walk!

- Ah, screw the Walk.
- Yeah, screw the Walk.

- Guys, guys, come on.
- There you go, baby.

Oh, come on, Olson.
Don't be a fucking pussy now.

- The Major isn't a smart target.
- Fuck The Major!

- Fuck the Long Walk!
- Oh, shit, Stebbins.

Well, he gon' have to fuckin' shoot me.

Is that what he gonna do?

- Fuck the Long Walk!
- Yeah. Fuck the Walk.

Fuck The Major
and fuck those fucking soldiers!

There you go.

- Fuck you, man!
- Yeah! Fuck the Long Walk!

- Fuck the Long Walk! Hell yes!
- Fuck the Long Walk!

- Fuck the Walk!
- Yeah! Fuck the Long Walk!

Fuck the Long Walk!

- Fuck the Walk!
- Fuck the Walk!

- Fuck the Walk!
- Fuck yeah!

- Fuck The Major!
- Fuck this shit! Fuck it all!

- Fuck the Long Walk!
- There he is!

- Yeah, fuck the Long Walk!
- Fuck the Long Walk!

Major, look! Fuck you!

Oh. Pete.

You wanna get some sleep?

You want me to...

No.

That's all you.

Thanks, Pete.

All right, stay right there, Pete.

Ah, fuck me.

All right, don't drop it, all right?

- Oh, we playing ball?
- Ready?

- Hit me.
- All right.

There you go.

- Warning, number six.
- Nice. There you go.

- Easy, Art. Damn.
- Jesus.

Don't take long now.

- Come on.
- You gotta go.

- Is he good?
- Second warning...

- No, he's not up yet.
- ...number six.

Get up, Art.

Fucking nasty.

Pinch it off, my man.

Ain't so easy with a... gun on my...

What, you need a gun
to your head to get up from a shit? Jesus.

Goddamn.

Fastest crap I ever took.

You should have brought an issue
of The New Yorker with you.

Never could go long
without a crap.

See, most guys, they...

they crap once a week.

Me, I'm a once-a-day type of guy,
you know?

If I don't crap once a day, I...

I take a laxative.

There are three great truths in the world.

A good meal,

a good screw,

and a good shit.

And that's all.

Olson's a smart man.

You keep saying "crap," though.

What's up with that?

It's always sounded
a little less vulgar to me

than the S-word.

Well, I ain't never heard
of the Bible forbidding the word "shit."

How about you, Ray?

Not me.

Yeah, well, it's not..
it's not that it's a rule or anything.

It's just, you know,

the idea is the Bible..

- The Bible says..
- Can you.... Sorry.

Can you break off?

You stink.

Listen, it's not your fault.
You didn't have time to wipe.

But we shouldn't all be fucking paying
for it. You know what I mean?

- Sorry, Art.
- I love you. I love you.

- Yeah, we love you, Art.
- Thank you.

Just keep it, you know, just, like...

Just run, like,
two miles up the road. Okay?

Well, Ray, we're alone.

How 'bout it?

It's just gotta stay between us, Pete.

You have my word, compadre,
and that means something.

My dad, uh, you know...

My dad was my hero.

And...

you know, he always wanted
to show me things

that honestly
could have gotten him jailed.

You know, he wanted to show me books
by, you know, Nietzsche and Kierkegaard,

Mark Twain and Camus, and show me music,

- real fucking uninhibited music.
- Yeah.

And just, you know,
that was the kinda guy he was.

He was uninhibited, and just, uh...

You know, I don't know. I-I wanted to know
the old way, so he showed it to me.

And all that shit's illegal now.

Yeah, I think he thought he had a system.
He thought he was being careful, but...

Dublin's fair city

Where the girls are so pretty

I first set my eyes

On sweet Molly Malone
As she...

Dad, do you mind grabbing
the baseball?

It's right next
to the, um, sewing machine.

It's right... Thank you.

Thank you.

- Dad? Dad?
- William, what did you do?

What did you do?

- Dad?
- What's happening?

William!

William, what's happening?

He says things he doesn't mean!

He says things he doesn't mean!

Mr. William Garraty,

you've been accused and convicted

for high crimes of possession and teaching
of banned materials and ideas.

Do you pledge allegiance to the state,

- the system, and the squads...
- Please.

...here and now on the street
before your family,

or immediate deactivation?

There's still time
to be an example for your son.

Still time for you
to make the honorable choice.

It's your decision.

No, sir.

Oh, my God.

I will pledge no such allegiance.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God!

- Luck to you, Mr. Garraty.
- No!

- May God show mercy.
- No!

Never forget who you are, Ray.

God.

I'm so sorry.

It's all right. I'm all right.

No, Ray, it's not all right.

Yeah, you're right, it's not.

And that's why I'm gonna kill him.

- No.
- Yep.

- How? Ray, you can't wish him dead.
- Yeah, I have a wish.

A wish that will give me
the ability to do it once I'm the winner,

once I'm close enough to him.

What?

I'm gonna wish for the carbine.

The gun?

And they'd have to give it to you.

Yeah, and that's how I'd do it.
Right fucking there.

But you gotta win first.

Yeah, but, Pete, I'll tell you this,
nobody wants it more than me.

Nobody here wants it more than I do.

Hey, I'm not arguing
with that, compadre, but..

Listen, my dad was the last
true good person on this planet.

I swear to fucking God.

And he was willing to risk everything
in order to show me the old ways.

This is my chance to do my part,
change things the way he wanted to.

- Yeah, but, Ray..
- Pete, my chance

to cut off the fuckin' head of the dragon.

Ray.

He chose to leave you.

How's that good?

Garraty, do you have any idea
how hard it is to fucking kill a man?

I've killed a deer,
and that's hard enough.

Like, killing a man is only easy
for a certain kind of person.

- I'll become that kinda person.
- That'd be fucking sad.

Those kinda people
can't see the beauty in this world.

- What fucking beauty?
- The sky, the trees, the birds.

Fuck, man, everything.

Do you know what else is beautiful?

Us.

"Cause we're real friends,
aren't we?

Pete, what does it matter?

Whether we have three hours,
three days, or three decades,

this moment, this fucking moment,

it matters, man.

Say it.

This matters. This moment matters.

Yeah. Goddamn right, Musketeer.

But it doesn't really matter,
does it, Pete?

Because when this moment's over,

I'm still gonna go fucking kill him.

Fair enough.

But realize, even if you pull it off,

- they'll fucking kill you.
- You don't know that shit.

I'll be the winner.
That's uncharted territory.

- Well, what about your mom?
- Oh, don't fucking bring up my mom, Pete.

But what about your mom?

- Does she know?
- No, she doesn't.

This thing's bigger than me and my mom.

Pete, look at that bunch of fucking pigs.

They wanna see
our fucking brains on the concrete, man.

They'd just as soon see yours.

All how you fucking see it.

Look harder.

You see that? That's a family,
and they love each other.

We can't get mad at them

for being conditioned
to think that this is okay

when... when we're the fuckin' same.

You know what, Ray?

Your wish means nothing

if you don't believe
in that family over there.

If you don't believe
they're worth being saved,

you may as well sit down right now

and let them
riddle you with bullets, because...

vengeance, Ray...

vengeance is not enough.

See that?

That's something to be grateful for.

You ever had a brother, Ray?

No.

Neither have I.

You wanna walk with me a while?

Yeah.

Yeah, I do, Pete.

Warning, number 47.

- Ha!
- Hey! You got me.

Warning. First warning, four.

Please, help me.

Please, my feet. Help me.

My feet. Please, help.

Please.

Warning, four.

Second warning.

Warning, four.

Third and final warning.

The fuck?

Who the fuck is that?

It's Tressler.
He's the... kid with the radio.

Warning. Third warning, 24.

- Fuck, man!
- Lord, I wanna go home.

Jesus, I wanna go home.

Fuck.

- I wanna go home.
- Fuck.

I wanna go home.
I wanna go home. I wanna go home.

I wanna go home. I wanna go...

Garraty.

You tired, Garraty?

Am I tired?

Yeah, I'm a little tired.

Exhausted?

I'm getting there.

No.

You're not exhausted.

Not yet.

I don't know why
I bother talkin' to you, man.

It's like talking to fucking smoke.

Olson's exhausted.

He's almost through now.

You got balls talkin' about Olson
looking the way you look.

Shit himself.

You smell that?

Even I can.

The fuck are you driving at, man?

Why don't you ask
your hick friend, Art Baker?

The mule doesn't like to plow,
but it sure does like the tasty carrots.

Watch Olson.

He doesn't quite know it yet,
but he's lost his appetite for the carrot.

Olson.

Hank.

Olson.

Olson, talk to me, man.
What's goin' on? Hey, hey.

Talk to me, Hank.

Stebbins is talking about
carrots and donkeys.

I don't know
what's happening, but...

You okay?

You all right?

Talk to me.

God's garden.

It's full of weeds.

- Hank. Hank!
- Warning, 46.

Hey, keep walking, Hank!

- Hey, Hank!
- Olson, come on. Just keep walking.

Keep walking, man, come on!

- Olson, get that fucker!
- Please!

Fuck!

Come on. No!

No, no, no, no, no!

- Second warning, 46.
- Art!

- Hank! Hank!
- Warning, number six.

- Oh, motherfuckers!
- Art! Get back here, Art!

- Art, get fucking back here now!
- Art, he's dead!

Why the hell
don't they just finish him?

- They gut-shot him.
- Art, get back here!

They're gonna let him bleed out.

It's deliberate to discourage any of us

from doing the old
Charge of the Light Brigade number.

Hank. Hank. Hank, buddy.

- Buddy, buddy. No, no, no, no, no.
- Second warning, Six.

Buddy. Hey.

- Come on. Why'd you do this, man?
- Warning, 47.

Ray! Ray!

- Art...
- Why'd you do this?

- I did it wrong. I did it all wrong.
- Art, get the fuck up!

- Why?
- I did it all wrong.

- No, I'm here. I'm here, buddy.
- Art, he's dead. Art, I need you..

Art, I need you
to get the fuck up right now!

- Shoot me! Hank, no, you can't!
- Come on, he's dead. He's dead!

- No, no!
- I'm sorry, Olson.

I did it wrong!

- What?
- I'm sorry!

- He was dead! He's dead!
- I did it wrong!

What? I'm gonna lose you too?

I did it all wrong!

- Garraty, I couldn't save him, man.
- I know, I know, I know, I know.

- I couldn't save him, Garraty!
- I know.

- Art! I did it wrong!
- I know, I know.

I'm sorry.

- I couldn't save...
- I know.

- Couldn't save him!
- Stop.

Stop, it's okay.

You did a good thing.

- No, man.
- You did a good thing.

- He called my name.
- I know. Stop.

- He needed me.
- I know, I know. I know.

I wish he would've shot
one of those fuckers.

Still can't get over
the pure fucking idiocy of Olson.

Why don't you keep his hame
out your fucking mouth?

He didn't go out quietly, and I respect
the hell out of him for that.

- I respect it as well.
- So, what of it?

He was married.

Oh, that's... that's a load of bullshit.

It's the truth.

Told a few of us at the drop-off.

Got a lot of ball-busting for it.

He's the only one.

The only one with a fucking wife.

Get this.

Her name's Clementine.

Like the song.

Okay, fellas,
let's make a promise right now.

Whoever wins has to do something
for his wife.

How about that?

That's exactly
fucking right, Pete.

Do what? I'm not the fuckwad
who decided to widow a, you know..

Listen, just money or something,

just to make sure she's okay, all right?

Sounds like
some bleeding heart bullshit to me.

Oh, fucking..
Come on, Parker. Come on.

I know you got a heart
in there somewhere.

Fucking say I never did
anything for you, McVries.

My man.

And what about you, Baker?

- Warning, number 23.
- Yeah?

Yeah.

Come on. Yeah.

What about you, Stebbins?

Why not?

Go team.

You feeling okay?

No, I'm not feeling okay.

It's a hell of a thing.

I haven't been sick in ten years,

and my body decides to do it
during this exact stretch of days,

like some cruel fucking joke.

It's called irony.

Yeah, I know what irony is.

Won't stop me, though.

Still fucking winning this shit.

Fuck! Mmm.

Why didn't your buddy ask me

if I wanted to help
Hank's girl out, you know?

I mean, um,

you know, I-i wanted to be asked.

You didn't hear me say
I didn't wanna be asked, did you?

No, I didn't hear you say that. No.

Shit, man.

I think I just got off on the wrong foot
with you boys, you know?

Like, I'm a good enough guy
if you get to know me.

I just...

I don't really have a crowd, you know.

I never had a crowd in school,
I guess, is what I'm trying to say.

You know, I was always
getting off on the wrong foot, but...

- Okay.
- Fuck, man. I mean...

Guy's gotta have a couple buddies
on-- on a fucked-up thing

like this, right?

Yeah.

Listen, man...

- that Rank kid, man...
- Yeah.

... I didn't wanna see him go, you know.

I would never, you know...

Fuck, man, I just...

I can't stop fucking
hearing it and seeing it

in my mind over and over again,
man.

I can't fucking do it anymore, man.
I just gotta...

I'm just...
I'm fucking sorry, man,

-and I...
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I can't think
it's my fucking fault, right?

- Yeah.
- It's not my fault, right?

It's not. It's not.

- Okay.
- It's not, okay?

So, what do you want, Gary?

You wanna be a...

- You wanna be a part of the deal?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- That's what I was saying. Yeah.
- Okay. Okay.

Okay.

- Yeah.
- I'll tell that bitch

she can have enough bread
to stay on Fifth Avenue

- the rest of her fucking life.
- Okay, man.

And if you don't mind
telling your buddy,

just that I'm a part of it now.

- I can tell Pete, yeah.
- Thanks, man.

- Yeah.
- Thanks.

Oh, shit, man.

Guy's gotta have a couple buddies, man.

That's what my daddy
always used to say. Fuck! Fuck!

Oh, shit, man. I'm sorry, man.

- I just... I don't wanna go..
- It's okay, it's okay. Hey.

I don't wanna die hated, you know?

You gotta die.

And that's the fucked-up thing
about all this,

is that we all gotta go, you know?

It just doesn't have to be
like this right now, you know?

- Doesn't have to be like this, but...
- Yeah.

Fuck! Fuck, man.

Can't fucking stop it, man.

Hey, you okay?

The fuck did you just say?

- The fuck did you just say, man?
- Said are we fucking good.

I didn't fucking mean
to kill that kid, man!

- I didn't fucking mean it, okay?
- Okay.

- Okay.
- I'm fucking sorry, man.

- Yeah.
- Fuck!

Hey, Gary. Come on, man. It's all right.

We're all right.

We're all just friends right now, man.

We're all just walking together

- as friends, okay?
- Yeah.

You got us. You got us.

You got your pack.

All right? Come on.

There you go. Just like that.

- Okay?
- Okay.

So, we're gonna keep walkin'.

I'm gonna go tell Pete that...

I'm gonna go tell Pete
you wanna be part of the plan, all right?

Thanks, man.

All right.

All right.

All right. Keep walking, please. Okay.

Fuck, is he good?

He said he wants
to be a part of the plan.

No, no, no.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh, fuck, man. I gotta go, man.

- Gotta fucking go, man.
- Hey, Barkovitch. Barkovitch.

Gary.

It's all right, Gary.
Just keep..

- Fuck, man.
- Hey, Barkovitch.

Hey, Barkovitch.

Ah, Pete, just let him walk. Come on.

- Keep walking, Gary.
- Warning.

- Warning, number five.
- Don't stop.

- Don't stop. Come on
- Please, keep walking.

Gonna be with you whores
forever now, okay?

It's not what you..
What the fuck?

Fuck! No!

- Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
- Why'd he do that?

Why the fuck did he do that? Fuck.

- Why the fuck did he do that?
- Warning.

Second warning, five.

Everyone, keep walking.

Third warning, five. Final warning.

No.

In a cavern, in a canyon

Excavating for a mine

Dwelt a miner, forty-niner

And his daughter Clementine

Yes, I loved her
How I loved her

Though her shoes were number nine

Herring boxes without topses

Sandals were for Clementine

Oh, my darling
Oh, my darling

Oh, my darling, Clementine

You are lost and gone forever

Dreadful sorry, Clementine...

We're getting fucking close, right?

What?

To your mom?

Oh, yeah, it shouldn't be, uh,
it shouldn't be long now.

You're one lucky son of a bitch, Garraty.

Get to see your mom.

Who the hell am I gonna see
between now and the end, huh?

No one but the fucking pigs
who come and stare.

I'm homesick,

and I'm fucking scared.

Hey, I'm scared too, Collie.

If it makes you feel any better,
I think we're all homesick.

You know?

Fucking easy for you to talk.

This is your home state.

You're the only one
who gets to see family.

I don't know.

I think maybe it might make it worse.

The fuck are you butting in for?

I think he's got it harder
than either of us.

I think it might throw him off.

Oh, fuck off.

You're both crazy.

You really think
it's gonna be harder?

I just want you to keep
on walking.

We made it to Freeport, Pete.

Mile 286.

We live to fight another day.

Fuck!

Damn bottom of my shoe fell off.

Gotta get rid of them both, Garraty.

Or else, some nails
will start poking through.

Plus, you work harder
when you're off-balance.

Warning, number 47.

Fuck me.

Your f...

- Hi, Mom.
- Your feet.

Your...

Baby, your...

Don't slow down, Ray.

Can't stop.

- Ray. Ray. Ray!
- Warning, 47.

- Mom, I'm so sorry.
- Second warning.

- I'm so sorry.
- No, no, no! No!

- You don't know how sorry I am.
- Stop, stop, stop! No, no, no, no!

- It's okay. It's okay.
- Mom, please. I just want a hug.

You'll get yourself killed.
Ray, come on!

- Just a hug. I know I fucked up.
- You just keep.. No!

- No, go!
- Warning, 47.

- Ray! Come on, move!
- Third warning.

- Go!
- Warning, number 23.

- Keep walking!
- I'm so sorry, Mom!

Keep walking! It's okay!

It's okay!

Think about your father.

I don't wanna think
about it, man.

I'm so sorry, Mom!

Just don't do this in front of her.

Don't do this in front of her!

Fuck you!

You fucking twisted piece of shit!

You were right.
I did what my dad did. I...

Pete, I have made
such a fucking massive mistake.

I should've just stayed
in the fucking car.

- I should've just gone home. I'm..
- Ray. Ray.

Ray, you still wanna know
how I got this fucking scar, huh?

- She's still there, Pete.
- Ray.

- Please.
- Yeah.

Ray, you've been walking
for five days.

I've been walking my whole
fucking life.

You know,

my parents both died

in the big war when I was...

when I was little.

And, you know, the damnedest thing,

I don't remember
single thing about 'em.

A drunk uncle took me in.

He beat the shit outta me

and died in a pool
of his own puke when I was ten.

After that...

I met kids sorta like me.

No parents

or parents who didn't give a fuck.

- Yeah?
- I lived on...

couches and in basements.

I slept in fields and ditches.

It took years
before I was finally caught by the state.

But nothing was as bad
as how I was living.

Picking fights,

stealing shit,

picking more fights,

until, one day,
I picked a fight with the wrong guy.

Yeah.

A guy who knew his way
around a hunting knife.

He cut me.

He cut me fucking good. You see this, Ray?

- Have a look at that. You see that?
- Jesus, Pete.

- You see it, yeah?
- Yeah, I do.

Yeah.

He left me for dead.

I woke up in the hospital,
and you know what?

You know what, Ray?

I wasn't even upset.

Because it wasn't his fault.
It was mine.

You know, so at that moment,

I said I'll always
choose to find sunlight

in all this fucking darkness.

"Cause what's the point
of a second chance if not?

You do find the light, Pete. You do.

- I don't have that in me, though.
- Yeah.

I would have been fucking dead
if it wasn't for you.

Ray, you think this shit is easy?

No, Ray, it's fucking hard.

I try fucking hard.

Yeah.

I don't have much to lose,

but I have everything to gain,
and that's why I'm here.

Yeah.

I want that prize
so I can do something good.

Maybe help some children
who... who are like me.

But you know what I could've used, Ray?

What?

A brother.

Ray, listen to me.

If you make this, if...

I suggest you choose love.

I suggest you take that prize
and go home to your mom,

because, Ray, Ray,

you're a good fucking kid...

- Thanks, Pete. Thanks, Pete.
- ...and you deserve it.

Yeah.

Hey, listen.

I've been thinking.

We all got to get together on something.

What?

We all gotta make an agreement

that from here on out,

no help for anyone.

You either do it on your own,
or you don't do it.

The fuck's that supposed
to mean, Stebbins, huh?

What the fuck's
that supposed to fucking mean, huh?

No, Pete, I..
Pete, I think he might be right.

You can't keep saving me.

But what about the Musketeers?

Oh, fuck your Musketeers.

It's better for all of us,
and you know it.

Ah, my nose.

I ain't had a nosebleed in years.

Ain't nobody give a shit
about your nosebleed, Baker.

We've all got our issues,
if you couldn't tell.

What'd you say?

Oh, shut up. Parker.

Collie Parker, are you in?

Collie.

Ah, fuck it.

Goddamn motherfucker!

- No!
- McVries!

- Come on!
- Oh, my God.

Fuck. Fuck. God.

Fuck. I...

No, no. No, don't turn.

Just keep walking. You okay?

You okay?

My nose... it's bleeding.

I know.

Hey. Hey, my nose.

My nose won't stop.

My nose won't stop bleeding.

It ain't that bad, though, is it?

No.

- No, no. It's not that bad.
- No.

It's an internal hemorrhage.
Pretty common.

Stebbins, please. Come on.

My grandma

used to put ice on my nose...

...every time I have a nosebleed.

I wish I had some ice to put on.

Yeah. Let's get you some ice.

Just keep walking.

I'm gonna die now, boys.

No. Just keep walking
a little longer, okay?

No, no. I can't. I can't.

Please.

I can't, buddy.

I'm sorry. I'm going home.

- Don't apologize.
- I'm going home.

- Don't apologize, Art.
- I'm going...

Keep your head up, buddy.
You gave this your all.

- I did?
- Yeah.

- I did.
- Like fuck, you did.

- I did.
- Yeah.

And you know what?

Even made some friends.

That's goddamn right.

Hey, Art,

you've been a hell of a fucking friend.

- Truly.
- Yeah.

Thanks.

- Thanks, both of y'all.
- Of course.

Could y'all do something for me?

- Absolutely.
- Anything, compadre.

Could you give this
to my grandma, if you make it?

Of course.

Of course.

Promise me one thing.

Yeah.

Don't watch 'em do it.

- Okay.
- Okay? Promise me, promise me.

- I promise.
- Promise me!

I promise. I promise.

Thanks.

I'm going home.

I'm going home.

Just a little longer.

- I'm going home.
- Just a little longer.

- I'm going home.
- Come on.

- I can't.
- Warning.

- Second warning, Six.
- I just...

I fucking can't, man.

Do you know what I want
more than anything?

- What, Pete?
- Third and final warning.

An Orange Julius.

You're in the homestretch.

For better or for worse,
there's going to be wheat,

and there's going to be chaff.

You choose, boys. Remember, you choose.

Shut the fuck up!

Holy shit!

Suck a dick, will you?
I mean, just..

You fucking lotus-eater.

You old sack of shit. Shut up!

- That's the spirit, my boy!
- Oh, my God.

That's a killer fuckin' instinct.

Take no prisoners.

Flex that sac and go get that prize.

- Warning, 23 and 47.
- Ah, fuck.

- Second warning, 38.
- I'm done.

What would happen

if we slowed at the exact same time, huh?

There's no way any three humans

could measure exactness
like these instruments.

They have it down to a science.

Increments.

How the fuck do you know so much
about the Long Walk, anyway?

It's all on record.

- You ever read a book? It ain't too hard.
- Come on, come on. No, come on!

Come on, man.

It's almost over.

Say something real.

I'm the rabbit.

I'm the fucking rabbit.

You've seen them.

Those little gray mechanical rabbits

that the greyhounds chase
at the dog races.

"Cause no matter how fast the dogs run,

they never can quite catch up
to the rabbit

because the rabbit isn't flesh and blood.

Maybe you're right, Garraty.

Maybe we should stop
being rabbits and pigs, and...

and goats and sheep and... just be people.

Real people...

who bleed.

You wanna know
how I know so much about the Long Walk?

The Major's my father.

I'm his bastard.

I didn't think he knew I was his son.

That's where I made my mistake.

He's got dozens of us.

For my wish, I was gonna ask
to be taken into my father's home.

To be invited for tea.

But I guess
this rabbit is flesh and blood.

And this flesh and blood
is failing me now.

I can feel my liver going, you know,

my lungs filling with fluid.

And I'd like to end this shit

with my head held high

instead of crawling on my belly,

like a reptile choking on my own mucus.

Think it'll rain tonight, boys?

I don't know, but it looks that way.

I always loved the rain.

I'm sorry.

There's gonna be crowds.

They allow them when there's two.

The real diehards.
The ones who will walk with you.

The ones that wanna see
The Major do the final Kill.

Just keep walkin', okay?

I'm glad it's you two.

Nice walking with you, Stebbins.

An honor.

Good luck.

Third warning, 38. Final warning.

Come on.

Do me.

Fifty percent chance now, Pete.

Fucking do me!

Pete, can I tell you something?

Sure.

When I was a kid, right,

I never really thought about death.

You know, I don't think most kids do

until you're confronted by it.

But once I was, I was scared shitless.

I was so afraid of it.

But there's something
about being with these boys.

I don't know, it reminded me

that the only guarantee
you have as a human being

is that you are going to die.

And if you're lucky, you get to choose

how to spend those last moments.

And you're right, Pete,
this moment matters.

Every moment matters.

Especially at the end.

I don't know why that calms me.

But I'm not afraid anymore.

Make way, make way.

Back it up, please.

Let's go.
All the way off the street.

Guys, let's go!
Keep going, keep going!

Keep going, keep it up!

- Second warning, 23.
- Pete, Pete.

- Second warning, 47.
- What are you doing?

- You're gonna win this, compadre.
- No, get up.

- Get up.
- No.

- You're gonna do this for your mom.
- Come on. Get up.

- Third warning, 23.
- This is for your mom.

- Get off me, Ray.
- Third warning, 47.

Come on, man.
What the fuck are you doing?

- Ray! You go and win it.
- Being a brother to my brother.

Come on.

Just walk with me
a little more, okay?

Okay.

You convincin' motherfucker.

Ray! Ray! Hey, what'd you do?

What'd you do?
What'd you do?

What'd you fucking do?
What'd you do?

What'd you do? Ray, Ray.

I can't. I can't see it, but you can.

That's why I love you.

- Ray! Ray!
- I love you, Pete.

- Ray, Ray! Get the fuck off!
- I love you.

Ray! Ray! No. Ray.

- Luck to you, Mr. Garraty.
- Ray! No...

Ray. Ray.

May God reward your bravery.

I'm sorry, Mom.

No.

Ray!

Oh, God. Ray.

- No!
- Ladies and gentlemen...

For amber waves of grain

...our champion, Peter McVries.

For purple mountain majesties

Above the fruited plain

Ray...

America, America

God shed His grace on thee

Ray. Ray.

Congratulations, Mr. McVries.

The cash prize is yours.

From sea to shining sea

So, tell me, son,
what's your wish?

Oh, beautiful for pilgrim feet

Whose stern impassioned stress

The whole nation
is watching, son.

What's your wish?

Across the wilderness

I want...

America, America

God mend thine every flaw

I want a carbine.

Confirm thy soul

You'll have one.

No.

I want that carbine.

To give to my kids one day.

- Sir?
- Give him his wish.

He won't shoot anyone, boys.
He's won too much.

And remember, this one wants
to make the world a better place.

Isn't that right, son?

Hold your fire. I'll fucking shoot.

- Hold your fire, boys.
- I'll fucking shoot.

- Hold your fire!
- Hold your fire!

Hold your fire!

That's all right, son.
No harm done.

Not yet.

Put the gun down.

The whole world is waiting for you.

There's more riches
than you could possibly imagine.

Put the gun down.

The prize is yours for the takin'.

Don't throw it away.

This is for Ray.

Took a walk

And I saw the land

Where Adam stepped foot
for the first time

And realized he was man

Saw the Dogwoods

Held some in my hand

'Cause my old man

Well, he told me to stop

And count 'em all while I can

The key to life
is enjoying the journey

When you don't know the end

So let's stay out here

For a while, my friend

Let's stay and walk the line

Till the end

I know you're tired

Hell, so am I

We can't take
the same road again

So let's stay out here

For a while

I took a look

And I saw the light

Where Eve stepped foot
for the last time

And took the first bite

Born in a battlefield

We stand tall as giants

Fight with the wind, yeah

Our story winds up
with fool prints behind us

So let's stay out here

For a while, my friend

Let's stay and walk the line

Till the end

So let's stay out here

For a while, my friend

Stay and walk the line

Till the end

I know you're tired

Hell, so am I

We can't take
this same road again

So let's stay
out here for a while

Stay out here

So let's stay out here

So let's stay out here

For a while, my friend

Let's stay and walk the line

Till the end

I know you're tired

Hell, so am I
