-Hey! -[Calvin yells]

Hey, hey. You're okay!

-You're okay. -What the Jesus is going on here?

You're all right there. Hey.

You're alive!

Course I'm alive. [chuckles]

-I was so worried. -It's all right, Dad. You're okay.

You're all right. It's okay.

-It's gonna be okay. -[music softens]

I thought I was having a bad spell of the old hag,

but it turns out the hag is no hag at all.

Oh, her name's Maggie.

She's best kind.

You know, I can't wait for you to meet her.

[grunts] What? Meet who?

Maggie.

She lives here.

No, that's impossible.

This… this place was abandoned.

Forty years ago, Wade.

Well, this crowd never left.

There's her and her father and her father's father.

Oh yeah, and then there's Moose.

Moose?

Yeah, the dog. You know, Maggie's dog.

Wade. Wade, who the fuck are these people?

Hey. Don't…

-Look. Don't worry. -[grunts]

[Wade] You're in good hands.

You just need to calm down. Calm down, Dad.

By the looks of it, you got the bends somethin' shockin' right now.

Dad. Dad.

[chilling music playing]

You dummy.

[music fades]

Walton?

[music softens]

Welcome home, me old trout.

[motor rumbling]

[gentle string music playing]

-[man] Come on. -[lively chatter, scattered cheering]

[man] What the heck is going on around here?

[Fonda] The infection seems to run its course in about 48 hours,

so I think it's possible to ride this thing out

so long as everyone stays out of the water.

[man] Water?

[mysterious music playing]

-Where the hell's the coast guard? -[Ruth] They should be here by now.

I don't understand. What could be taking so long?

[Jay] Maybe they're dealing with something worse.

Something's not right.

My radio's completely fried for some reason.

-Don't worry. They'll get to us. -No. It is not us I'm worried about.

[person coughing]

Dad'll be fine, Mary.

You keep saying that. What are you basing that on exactly?

I'm just sayin'.

He's probably on the research vessel, chances are he's with Wade.

Or they've been eaten by that giant fucking squid.

-[Jay] We don't know that either. -[Mary] Exactly.

We don't know anything about the iceberg, squid, or this fuckin' virus.

-Nobody knows sweet fuck all, okay? -Okay.

What we need now is a working radio, yeah?

I have a VHF set at the Ocean Science Center.

-And I need to rescue my samples-- -You're not going on that water.

-Nobody is. -No, I can take the service road.

Your truck can handle it? 'Cause mine sure as shit can't.

Yeah. It'll take a few hours, but I'll get there.

-Okay. I'm comin' wit' ya. -Oh. You are?

-Mary. -I'm comin'.

If my dad is on that ship,

I wanna talk to him.

[Jay] I'm gonna run up the hill, get gas for the generator.

Shit.

Fuck.

[horn honks]

Hey, pal.

Where you headed?

I was just gonna run up the hill, get some gas, but, um…

got a flat tire.

Yikes. Well, we can run you up the hill.

[music fades out]

[Walton] Best thing you can do for the bends now is to walk her off.

-Keep moving. -[Calvin] Yep.

Just push them nitrogen bubbles right outta your system, me ol' cocky.

Come on.

That used to be the wharf there?

Yep.

She didn't last long after the breakwater gave way.

I remember sitting there all day long waiting for father to come home with fish.

Yes, sir. Filled right to the freakin' gunwales, eh, b'y?

I remembers your father.

He was a good man.

Put up some good fight

against the Crockers' resettlement plans.

Not good enough.

Yeah, well. They wears you down, right?

Always thought you and your crowd moved further up the coast.

[Walton] We packed up and made like we were leaving, but we never did.

You didn't wanna take the money?

No, sir.

This is our home, b'y.

We weren't about to give that up on account of some townie politicians

told us we had to.

How'd you get by?

How'd we get by?

We did what we always done, man. We fished.

And as much as we could catch.

There's no moratorium on our nets, I guarantee you that, sir.

-[Calvin chuckles] -What? What's so funny?

[Calvin chuckles]

All this time, you've been here livin' my dream.

[Walton] This is no dream, my buddy.

-[suspenseful music playing] -[man speaks Portuguese]

[Calvin] Who the fuck?

Oh, that's just Phil, sure. Phil makes a mean cup of java, buddy.

-You want one or what? -I'm good.

-[Walton speaks Portuguese] -[Phil speaks Portuguese]

[in English] Come on. Somebody here wants to see ya.

Heh!

Hey, Father.

Look who it is.

You remembers Cal, right?

Leo Penney's boy.

That's right, Mr. Budgell.

[Budgell] I used to work a boat with your old man.

That you did.

He borrowed $25 and a pair of pliers just before the exodus,

and then he went and got himself killed, and he never paid me back

and never returned the pliers.

Now, what d'you know about that?

I'm sorry to hear that.

Don't listen, my son. He's lost his manners over the years.

-And most of his marbles too. -Nonsense.

You think a man who lost his marbles could come up with somethin' like this?

What's that for?

For Mudder.

Tonight.

We'll leave you to it then. Come on.

-Mudder? -Yeah.

Ah, don't mind him.

At the peak, there was 12 of us here.

All gone now, except me and Maggie.

Father, of course.

Keep going, buddy.

[Calvin panting]

[somber string music playing]

What happened?

[Walton] Some died happy,

some died hungry, but they all sacrificed

to make this place what it is today.

My Geraldine was the last to go.

She had the cancer, eh?

For years.

Like the others, she got to believing that, uh…

she was a drain

on our limited resources.

So she elected to, uh, do the needful

and offered herself up

to the ocean.

Just to lessen our burden.

By Jesus, it worked.

Some woman she was.

Look over there.

That can't be.

Why not?

Because they searched for him.

With all due respect, there wasn't that much to find.

It took some time, but we found enough of him to bury.

We gave him a proper burial.

I killed him, you know.

How's that?

I was the one that cut the rope.

Buddy.

You were just a youngster, b'y.

No.

If you hadn't done what you did,

there'd be

three more graves right here next to this one.

Your dad was a stubborn son of a bitch.

Fought the Crockers harder than anyone.

But at the end of the day,

he did what he had to do.

And so did you.

[delicate music playing]

[Wade] Thank you.

Whoa!

Where did you get all this stuff?

Look at her.

What's that?

Just a few local plants and berries.

The active ingredient comes from Mudder, of course.

Everything comes from Mudder.

[music becomes eerie]

[disembodied whispering]

Brainer.

[echoing] I don't ever want this to end.

[Maggie] It don't have to.

-[music becomes hopeful] -[Wade chuckling]

I never felt like this about anybody in my whole life.

Me neither.

Thanks be to Mudder.

Watch out for the glass.

Okay, so the radio is in the back corner in there.

-[Ruth] Yep. -[Fonda] I'm going down to the freezer.

Our team was diverted to a nearby mayday. We're prioritizing that distress now.

What mayday? Over.

No.

Negative.

Search is ongoing, but no survivors have been found. Over.

No. No.

We don't know. We don't know. It's okay.

Eat this, Jay. You son of a bitch.

[Jay] Oh shit!

Jay! Jay!

Argh!

No! No!

Help me, help me, help me, motherfucker!

[music fades]

[low, tense music droning]

[Calvin] Walton, we should head out another night.

[Walton] No, it's gotta be tonight.

[Calvin] You must be outta your mind.

[Walton] Ah, that's nothing, b'y. Just a bit of a chop.

[Calvin] It's still out there, Walton.

I seen this thing up close. She's not to be trifled with.

[brass music building]

Buddy, you just gotta know how to trifle with her properly.

-[dramatic drumbeat] -[music fades out]

Walton, this is the height of foolishness.

-There's no fish out here. -Hush!

[lighter flicking]

I likes to keep a clear head when I'm out fishing at night.

No, b'y. This stuff will open your eyes, right?

Too much and you'll be swimming right into Mudder's belly,

but just a little and she'll keep you safe.

It don't hurt none with the bends neither. Go on.

B'ys.

[Calvin coughs]

[distorted drumbeat echoing]

-[eerie, jarring music playing] -[laughing]

There he is!

[Budgell] Mudder sees you now, b'y. [chuckles]

[Walton] Father!

Pass me that crank now.

[whirring]

That sounds just like my father's old make and break.

That's 'cause it is your father's old make and break.

[laughter]

Mudder do love that sound! Ha!

[Budgell laughing]

Over there!

Jesus!

[Budgell chortling]

-[Calvin] Why's she not attacking? -[Budgell] 'Cause she knows us, b'y.

She chose us!

[Calvin] Jesus! Look at the size of 'em!

That's how it works, me buddy! She eats, then we eats!

She scares 'em right into our nets.

I haven't seen a run of fish like this in years!

[Budgell] Glory be to the hand of Mudder!

-[triumphant orchestral music playing] -[all laughing]

[music fades out]

You're doing it that way, are ya? [chuckles]

Right.

That was some haul last night.

This is the best season we've had in a spell.

And the longest too.

Job to say why she's sticking around so long, but we'll take it.

How often does she come around?

When the ocean's lean and we need her the most,

that's when she comes by.

And all the people she kill, that don't bother you none?

Look.

Mudder gives and she takes.

You best get your head around that right quick, my son.

[Walton] Hey, buddy!

Needs water.

You remembers where the well's to, right?

Yep.

[tense music droning]

[Maggie] Wade, watch.

[animal chittering]

[grunts softly]

[music fades out]

Hey.

How you feelin'? [sniffs]

Alive.

Which is on you.

Yeah, well…

you'd have done the same.

Yep.

So…

So what now?

You tell me.

Our mutual friend back in Fort Mac is not gonna believe this.

No.

No. [sniffing]

Probably not.

Yeah. [sniffs]

Although what he might buy

is that I came up with the cash and then…

Connor took off with it.

He might buy that.

[hopeful string music playing]

[sighs]

Ah! Ah!

[grunts]

[music becomes chilling]

[grunting]

-[music fades out] -[Budgell] Put more salt on it.

We don't want it spoiling when the weather changes.

-You think I don't know that? -[Budgell] All right.

Hey.

Hey, where's the water?

Down at the bottom of the mine shaft I near broke my neck falling into.

Fucking Crockers, b'y. What they done up there's criminal.

What were they digging up there?

Don't matter now.

Walton. What'd they find?

Cobalt.

All through here.

Copper too.

Big vein of it runs across the island under the sea all the way to Snooks Arm.

Up there with the African Copperbelt, they say.

Only colder.

[Walton] Smart cars and smart phones.

Every friggin' shiny thing that don't last is what we're standin' on, eh, Father?

Resources, my son.

[tense string music playing]

That's why they wanna resettle us?

[Budgell] He's smarter than he looks.

That's right. It's cheaper to move folks than to pay them what they're worth.

And even better if they don't know the value what's under their feet.

I gotta go. I can't let them get away with this.

Hold on.

Hey, we got an opportunity here to make right what they done to us.

What are you talkin' about?

There's plenty of room here for you and Wade.

God knows we could use a couple strong backs,

and Father is getting well up in age, right?

And in case you hadn't noticed, my Maggie's taken quite the shine to Wade.

Hey?

This is a chance to come home where you belongs.

It's what your father would have wanted.

-This isn't my home anymore. -No, but it could be.

It could be. You just picture a couple of grandkids runnin' up and down the cove.

The Penneys and the Budgells,

two of the great fishing families joined together,

stronger than ever.

You could live your dream, Calvin.

Look, all of this comes to an end now if… if I don't find a partner for Maggie.

Why not Phil, hmm?

Your little coffee boy. What's wrong with him?

What's wrong with Phil? How about the gangrene comin' up his fuckin' leg?

-He needs a hospital. -It's too late for Phil.

-Phil's not gonna make it, I don't think. -That's bullshit. He just needs a doctor.

Oh so what? So go let him blab about everything he's seen here?

No, we can't have that.

All right?

Besides, I got other plans for Phil. He belongs to Mudder now.

Okay.

-You're cracked. -I'm free.

And there's a difference.

Now, Maggie has got her heart set on Wade,

and Mudder chose him.

She… she marked him, sure.

And she spared him for a reason. I'm sorry, b'y.

It's gotta be Wade.

Do you hear me?

Yep.

[tense music fades out]

-[Calvin] Wade. -[Wade] What?

[Calvin] Where does Walton keep the crank handle?

-Why, in the big house. Why? -You and me, we're gettin' outta here.

What you on about now?

They're not gonna let us leave,

so I need you to get that crank and meet me at the boat at midnight.

-No friggin' way. Absolutely not. -Wade.

-These people? They're psychotic. -I'm not leavin' Maggie.

-Yes, you are. -No, I'm not.

All right? Look.

-What the fuck is that? -She gave it to me.

She's laying a trap, and you're walkin' right into it.

You don't know what you're talkin' about.

They're gonna do in that Portuguese fella. You understand me?

And after you knock up the missus, what do you think's gonna happen to you?

You know, they appreciates me more than you ever did.

Meet me at the boat at midnight, and don't tell the girl.

Dad, I'm not leavin', all right?

I don't wanna go back. I don't wanna go back to what it was.

You don't even know if there's anything for us to go back to.

[somber music building]

[music fades]

[Fonda sighs]

I can't.

I can't go in there right now.

We have to.

I, um…

I have to get these samples on ice, or else I'll lose everything.

You go ahead.

We're best kind.

[Fonda sighs]

What happened?

[Mary sobs]

Jay.

[Mary sobbing]

[helicopter blades whirring]

[music intensifies]

Who the hell is that?

Looks like Jim Crocker.

[Mary] As in Crocker Fish Plant and Crocker everything else?

Jay,

why is your girlfriend hugging and kissing Jim Crocker?

[music fades out]

Oh!

[mysterious music playing]

[yelps]

[inhales sharply] Oh!

[music intensifies]

[dramatic drumbeats booming]

[indistinct chatter]

It's a fucking nest.

[music fades out]

[man groaning]

[suspenseful string music playing]

[woman] Sh. Sh, sh, sh, sh, sh.

-Just take this. -[man groaning]

[woman] Sh. There. There.

Eternal Mudder.

I offer thee the most precious blood of thy divine son

for all the holy souls in purgatory,

for all those in my own home and within my family.

[Phil groaning]

[haunting strings building]

[music fades]

-[Phil groaning] -[Maggie humming cheerfully]

[music intensifies]

-[Calvin] Phil. -[Phil groaning]

[Calvin] Sh. We need to go. You, me. Vamos.

Yeah? Here.

Here. Take this.

Yeah, up. Let's go.

Vamos. Good.

Let's go.

Come on.

[Phil] Oh. No! No, no, no, no. No, no.

No, listen to me.

No, no, no. They're using you as bait.

Yeah. I'm gonna take you to a hospital.

All right? To the hospital. Wait.

Sorry, b'y.

-Walton! -Can't have you runnin' off.

Wait!

-I'll stay! I'll stay! -It's too late for that.

Walton!

So long, me old trout.

[Wade yells]

[dog barking]

Jesus.

I just did that.

Wade.

Did I just do that?

Let's go. Come on.

Shit!

-[Maggie screaming] Wade! -Oh no.

-[Calvin] Wade! -Shit.

-Shit. -[Calvin] Wade!

Wade, come on. We're gonna move the boat now, yeah?

Okay, okay.

-Come on. -Yeah, yeah, yeah.

-Okay. -[Calvin] One, two, three.

[straining]

[screaming] Wade!

Maggie?
