Fear.

It can take even the most joyful moment

and twist it into a nightmare.

Young Trask Manford and his wife, Sheila,

are about to take an unexpected road trip

straight into the territory of their deepest fears.

Its an encounter they won't soon forget.

If they live to tell the tale.

You got to be kidding me.

Trask?

What's up, hon?

Hospital, now.

What?

But the baby's not due for another couple weeks.

Try telling the baby that.

Are you sure?

Well my water broke.

Well maybe that's--

No, if you would of gone to class, we talked

all about it. You would of known had you been there.

Oh okay.

You wait here, I'll get the bags.

Okay, what about the car?

Its not running.

They sent me the wrong part.

Oh please.

I'm gonna call 911.

No, no, no, no.

Our insurance won't cover that.

What about Kathy?

Kathy's husband has the car.

Okay, stay calm.

I'll handle it.

You'll handle it, okay.

Really?

He's not gonna handle it.

He's not gonna do it.

Okay buddy.

How you gonna handle it?

Wait.

Superride.

come on, come on, come on.

Trask.

Use Superride.

Honey!

Thanks for the hand, Mrs. Livingston.

I'm so excited for you and Sheila.

I just wish I had a car.

No problem.

I got it covered.

That was fast.

I ordered a sedan though.

Oh no.

What, you used Superride, too?

Yeah, I told you I was handling it.

Sheila, Consentra Medical Center?

That's right.

But it seems we've had a bit of a mix up.

Consentra Medical Center?

Uh yeah.

But uh...

That is a very pregnant woman you got there.

Its a good thing I got a big comfy, safe,

SUV to take her in.

You can't go with both of us.

True.

What's it gonna be?

The hospital is a good hour away.

The time to go is now.

I can get you there in 40 minutes.

If you drive recklessly, yes.

This isn't my first time at the rodeo.

What if the baby arrives on the way?

I know what to do.

I'm not having my baby in a car.

He's right, the SUV is safer.

Trask, let's go.

Its not the car, its the driver.

I know my business, mister.

I'll be sure to say a prayer for both of you

and of course the baby.

Thank you, Mrs. Livingston.

Excuse me.

And I'll be sure to say a prayer for you too, young man.

Thanks for your help, Ms. Livingston.

Oh not at all.

You're making a mistake, you know?

Well its too late now.

Sorry man.

Dear lord, please get them to the hospital safely.

You okay, babe?

Its just contractions.

Contractions are good, right?

I wish you would of attended classes with me.

You wouldn't be so clueless.

Man I had no idea competition

for a ride was so intense.

Oh you mean that guy back there?

Yeah, he's a piece of work.

He's gotten people killed, you know?

For real?

Yeah long story, nasty.

I don't want to hear it.

Relax hon, we'll be there soon.

Dude, this isn't NASCAR.

You want to get to the hospital on time or not?

Yeah how bout in one piece?

You all right?

Stop yelling at our driver.

I wasn't yelling.

Was I yelling?

Uh a little.

See.

Okay, all right.

First baby?

Uh yeah.

Aww.

Well its nice when things are planned out like that.

Except one of us forgot to do the planning.

Uh oh.

You telling me this is one of the oopsie babies?

Yes. No.

I see, I see.

A little bit of both.

Was there a shotgun involved?

Almost.

Look, it was my idea to do the right thing.

I was the one that proposed.

Well you're trapped now, buddy.

Isn't that the truth?

What's that supposed to mean, huh?

It was just a joke.

That's guy talk.

Hey, don't cry.

I didn't mean it.

Seriously.

Oh now look what you did.

What I did?

You're the one that said it.

Well you didn't have to agree with me.

Just stop arguing.

I'm not arguing with him.

I'm just, I'm having a civil conversation with the man

and (phone rings).

Great.

Dad of all days.

Answer it.

I don't want to talk to him.

Can you drive a little more carefully?

Otherwise I'm gonna have to get behind the wheel.

We should of went with the other guy.

We should of had our own car except it doesn't work.

What kind of mechanic are you?

Mechanic who can't fix his own car?

Mind your own business.

When are you gonna get another job?

Miss, I reckon a guy can't fix his own car

is gonna have a mighty hard time finding a job

as a mechanic.

Will you shut up?

He's right.

Fine.

Have his baby next time.

yeah I do have a job.

Yeah, as a Superride driver, congrats.

Whoa, I bet I make more money than you, buddy.

And your lady here, you're all dressed up

in a nurses outfit or something, miss?

She's not a miss, we're married.

I'm a dental hygienist.

Oh nice pay I hear.

Primary breadwinner, am I right?

Dude one more word and I'm gonna flatten you.

Can you drive like a normal person?

Clearly he's just trying to get us

to the hospital on time.

Look, I was just looking out for you and the baby.

Really?

What's that supposed to mean?

Because I'm hearing a lot more about you

than me and the baby.

Sheila I am here for you just like I promised.

Look, Trask, I don't need you to be here

because its the right thing to do.

So what do you want me to do?

The wrong thing?

I was completely prepared to do this by myself.

I still am.

Come on, Sheila.

Don't say that.

You know, miss, you just might be better off that way.

That's it, pull over.

Excuse me?

You heard me.

I want a different driver.

Oh no, we don't.

I am done with this guy.

I said pull over.

Do what he says.

All right.

Thanks for the interesting ride.

I'll be sure to give you five stars.

I'll get your door, babe, just wait there.

Shall we?

Step on it.

Hey, hey, hey!

Hey come back here!

Well I wonder who that could be?

Here.

You two seem to have a pretty good rapport.

Hey lover boy.

If you don't bring my wife back right now

I'm calling the cops.

All right, okay listen to me, Trask.

I'm gonna do you a really big favor.

I want to make a problem go away, huh.

Permanently.

What?

Oh man.

So.

I need help here!

Is anybody up there?

God?

Are you up there?

I just need, I just need help, I need help.

I don't know.

Keys.

Listening to me?

I don't even know where I am.

I'm freaking out.

I just know I'm stuck and I need to get out.

I don't know how I got in this mess.

I don't know.

Maybe I do.

Please help me.

Help me.

Please.

Help me.

Hey.

Hey.

You.

We don't have much time, Trask.

If you want your wife and baby to live we better go now.

Get in.

There's that curse again.

The what?

The curse.

The curse of Eve.

You know when God kicked her and Adam out of the garden.

Gave Adam the misery of work and Eve the pain of childbirth.

Seems to me you're getting both ends of the stick, huh?

Are you a religious man?

Oh I believe in God.

I'm just not too impressed with the way he's running things.

Oh hello.

We got company.

Hey, hey, hey.

There they are, there they are.

Hey can you go any faster?

Not yet.

Not yet?

Keep your eyes open.

Okay.

I am gonna ask you to hold on.

What are you doing?

Well remember I told you about that driver back there?

If he's got lover boy with him,

who knows what he's gonna do to try and stop us?

Can you lose him?

Well that's the plan.

You ready?

I'm ready.

All right.

No, no, no.

What?

This maniac equipped the SUV with a nitrous tank?

Well did he?

It won't last long.

Ever heard of the tortoise and the hare?

Did you know he was going to do that?

I'm very familiar with his type.

Hey wait a minute.

He's heading away from the hospital.

Uh.

Lewis, right?

That's my name.

The hospitals the other direction, right?

Man, you want everything.

I'm just playing with you, Sheila.

Its just a little shortcut I'm taking.

It will loop us back up onto 180,

get you to the delivery room in no time flat.

You trust me?

Sure.

There you go.

We'll never catch up in the rust bucket.

No offense.

None taken.

Don't worry, like I said, its not the car.

The driver.

Right.

So you've dealt with this guy before?

His kind.

And what kind is that?

A liar.

Its his native language.

I don't know.

He had me nailed with a few things, honestly.

Like your fear of being trapped?

Yeah.

Wait how did you know he said that?

I know a great many things, Trask.

For instance, I know that you're not trapped

in your marriage to Sheila.

How are you so sure?

I can see the love you have for her.

You would of proposed to her eventually no matter what.

Yeah well that guy got me to say I was trapped

pretty easily.

Put me in the doghouse with that one.

Its how he works.

He tricks you into believing your fear is reality.

Sheila?

Honey, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.

Trask, its your dear old dad.

Is everything all right?

I don't have time for our annual phone call.

I'm in the middle of something.

You know, why am I even telling you?

Is everything all right with Sheila?

Besides having a baby on the way?

I know about that.

Your mother told me.

No I mean right now, like this very minute.

Oh I see.

Well son, you have to take care of your wife.

That's some rich advice coming from you.

Did you take care of mom?

Son.

I got nothing to talk to you about.

Trask, I don't want you

to make the mistakes I made.

Oh yeah?

Its time for you to be a man.

And what would you know about that?

What would you know about that?

Unbelievable.

Little less pain?

It comes in waves.

The driver, the one that Trask is with.

Oh yeah, he and I go a long way back.

You said he killed someone.

That's what they say.

But you don't know if that's true, right?

True?

oh man, you're an educated woman.

That's kind of a relative term, you know?

Ah hey now, there you go.

Pain, there's some real truth for ya.

Oh god.

Oh god isn't here for you.

I am.

And old Lewis is gonna take care of you.

Yeah.

You got a long, hard road with Hiram.

How do you know my dad's name?

I've been after him for years.

He's restless, a dreamer but always chasing after

the wrong dream.

Hey let me ask you something.

Who am I?

Yeah.

You get that question a lot?

Many times.

So what's the answer?

Who do you say I am?

I don't know.

You said you were after my old man

and this guy that's got Sheila.

You a cop, bounty hunter?

No.

I'm the good shepard.

Shepard by night and Superride driver by day, huh?

I'm a great many things, Trask.

And why did you go all out of your way to find me?

You prayed today, Trask, to whom?

What do you mean?

When you prayed by the side of the road,

who did you hope was listening?

I don't know.

Jesus.

So why are you so surprised to see me?

So you're Jesus?

The son of man.

Then tell me something, tell me something.

Tell me something that I haven't told anybody.

I'll tell you what matters right now.

Your fear and your wife's.

51 degrees.

Police have no leads yet on the gunman

described as a middle eastern man in his 20s

who took the lives of 10 customers at the restaurant.

Can you change the station, please?

Her children found abandoned by their mother

in a car yesterday.

Temperatures inside the car had reached over 120 degrees.

Maybe we can find a channel that's just music.

Also can you turn up the air conditioning?

Yeah sorry about that.

Its the highest it goes.

But hey, how about some classical music, huh?

Yeah great.

All right.

This totem poem, which the composer dedicates to,

quote, the forgotten refugees of the world,

the hopeless and forsaken.

Can you just turn it off, please?

What are you trying to do to me?

I'm not doing anything to you.

Well then why can't you find a decent radio station?

Well maybe because its not a decent world.

I don't know, I didn't make it.

You're the one who wants to bring a baby into it.

Its not all that bad.

Oh, oh I get it, I get it.

Yeah you like, you like to ask for the truth

and then you don't want to face it. I get it.

You just sit back, you relax,

stay in your little bubble there.

Trask.

Where are you?

We're never gonna catch them now.

Are you sure of that?

I don't know.

I don't know what I'm sure of right now.

Be sure of me.

Oh yeah?

Well if you're Jesus Christ

then why am I still freaking out?

Cause you're human.

Not an app that can be programmed to trust.

You need to learn how to trust.

If only you're willing to let me teach you.

Okay.

Sure.

Drop some knowledge on me.

Why didn't you go to the birthing classes with Sheila?

Come on.

Now you're gonna guilt me with that, too?

No.

But you have to be honest with yourself, Trask.

Why did you skip them?

I had a job interview.

One.

You had one job interview.

What about the other times?

Why did you make Sheila go it alone?

Hey, she didn't go alone.

I promised that I would be there for her.

And are you?

Trask.

Its time for you to be a man.

That's the same line my dad just fed me.

When are you going to do it?

Look man, don't push me.

Is it because you don't know how to be a man?

Hey dude, pull the car over

and I'll show you what a man is.

Trask, that's not a man.

A man takes care of his wife, teaches his kids.

Didn't you learn anything from your dad?

Learn from him?

My dad pulled a vanishing act on me when I was seven.

That phone call that I just had,

I've gotten that once a year since high school.

Once a year.

That con manning drifter.

He's got the guts to tell me to be a man.

When he first said those words to you, Trask,

you were just a boy.

It wasn't your time to be a man.

You needed someone to teach you what that meant.

Someone to show you what that looked like.

A father to guide you and walk alongside you.

And now that's what your son will need.

You're right I just...

I don't know how.

I don't have a clue.

Trask, I'll ask you again.

Why didn't you attend the birthing classes with Sheila?

Because I was afraid.

I was, I was scared to face it.

The baby, I mean, the classes

it all just became too real.

I'm still scared.

I don't know how to be a dad.

I don't even know how to be a husband, really.

This is good.

How's that?

It doesn't feel that good.

Now that you've faced your fear

we can overcome it.

We?

Me, my spirit, my father as one

and you, together.

Are you ready to believe?

Yeah.

Then hold on.

Okay, all right.

What?

Lewis.

Oh you like the music?

Soothing, isn't it?

No the shortcut, where are we going?

Oh right, yeah, sorry about that.

A change of plans.

I found a solution for you and lover boy

and that festering lump of flesh in your buddy.

Leave it for old Lewis here.

What are you talking about?

You're never gonna have that baby.

We're all sick of living in this disgusting world.

No, no let me out.

You have to, please.

Please!

Please keep your hands and legs inside the ride

till we reach the final destination.

No, no, no.

What is this?

Hey if we're gonna go out, might as well go out big, huh?

Oh God, please.

Please, God.

Please God, I know I've never done anything for you

but you have to save me.

You have to save me and you have to save my baby.

You listen up, little missy.

You and I both know that if you have this baby

Trask is gonna do his duty

right up until he gets sick of it and gets sick of you.

Then he would leave you all alone like all men do.

That's not true.

You don't want to face that all alone, do you?

No, you don't.

That's not true.

You're a liar, you're a liar.

I love my husband and I love my baby!

I love them and they love me.

Yeah yeah you just keep telling yourself that.

I do.

Oh yeah.

Oh okay.

All right.

Get ready.

What, no, no, no!

No!

Yes.

She'll need this.

I'm with you.

Now go get your wife.

Drink some of this, drink some.

You're here.

Of course I am.

I'm your husband.

Here we go, here we go.

Okay.

You're never gonna make it.

Driver, one star.

Here's a tip, find another job.

Any pain?

Its strange.

Its not nearly as bad as it was.

Thank you for rescuing us.

Thank you, Jesus.

You're welcome.

You guys haven't been properly introduced.

Sheila...

Great.

I can see dear old dad is gonna

be especially obnoxious today.

Well what do you think he wants?

He wants to talk to his son.

Wants to find out about his daughter in law

and his grandson.

His grandson?

How does he know we're having a boy,

we don't even know what we're having.

Yeah, we wanted to be surprised.

Are you disappointed?

No.

Not at all.

Are we, baby?

Who is this guy?

Its kind of hard for me to explain right now.

You asked for help, Sheila.

Here I am.

Well.

They say no two pregnancies are ever the same.

Thank you, lord, for delivering us from danger.

You're not out of danger yet.

Oh no.

What?

I thought we got rid of that guy?

You're giving him an opportunity, Trask, you're angry.

No.

Sheila and I are good.

Right baby?

You're angry at your father, Trask

and you've let the sun set on your anger far too long.

You're handing the evil one an opportunity.

Okay.

What do I have to do?

You know what to do.

No.

No.

I'm not calling him.

You should, his your father.

You know, if you really are Jesus

can't you get rid of this maniac?

You two can get rid of him, I'm showing you the way.

I'm not calling him, not right now.

Trask, you have a son on the way.

When he grows up and you call him

do you want him to hang up on you?

Either of you?

He's right.

Call him.

Trask.

What do I say?

What you should of said a long time ago.

Trask, Trask is that you?

Hello?

Hi, dad.

Trask, is everything all right?

No, dad.

Everything hasn't been all right for a long time now.

Oh.

Look uh, I was just calling to say

I'm sorry for the way I treated you

and I know you wanted to apologize

and I never gave you the chance

and I was wrong.

Okay.

And well.

Now that I'm a man I realized it.

Son, I don't know what to say.

You don't have to say anything.

Look we're almost at the hospital.

Consentra.

Can you meet us there?

Son, I would be proud to.

Great.

We'll see you soon.

You want to talk to Sheila?

Hello?

Hi, Sheila.

How we doing?

I'm gonna need the wheelchair.

I can take care of that.

You're not gonna leave us, are you?

I'll never leave you.

In fact, I think we're going to be closer than ever.

Amen to that.

Are we gonna have any more children?

What and ruin the surprise?

Thank you.

Grab the bags.

Faith, it can take even the most fearful

moment and transform it into joy.

Trask and Sheila Manford have experienced that reality today

on the road trip of a lifetime.

Its the tale of an encounter that they'll pass along

to their child and to their children yet to come.
