[screaming]

[helicopter whirring]

Nothin', nothin' at all.

Send again.

I've been sending up and down the coast from Sarasota to the Everglades

and still getting back the same dead air-- there's nothin'.

There's nobody, or at least nobody with a radio.

Ali right then, let's set down. We'll use the bullhorn.

Set down? Wait a minute, that's not in our contract.

It's the biggest city within 150 miles.

We're gonna give it every chance.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.

Set down, John.

[Jamaican accent] I'll set us down, but I won't leave my seat.

I'm gonna keep the engine runnin'.

Now, the first sign of trouble, I'm going up.

If you ain't on board when that happens,

you're likely to have a lousy afternoon.

Calling anybody on this frequency.

This is helicopter four zero alpha.

If you can hear me, please listen carefully--

Hello!

Hello!

Is anyone there?

Hello!

Hello!

Is there anyone there?

Hello!

Is anyone there?

[buzzing]

Is anyone there?

Hello!

Is anyone there?

[footsteps approaching]

[groaning]

Hello!

[groaning]

Hello!

Is anyone there?

[grunting]

[groaning]

Hello!

Is anyone there?

Hello!

[clamoring]

We can lift you out to safety.

Please answer my call if you can hear me.

Forget it, Billy boy.

It's a dead place.

Like all the others, you know.

Listen.

[clamoring]

You can hear it over the engine.

[clamoring louder]

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.

[clamoring louder]

Hey!

Find anything?

Yeah, a bunch of real estate for sale at closeout prices, man.

Gas up the machine, she's down to fumes.

No, wait 'til it's dark.

They're too many of them out there.

Hey, hey, it's no good to leave the gas tank empty.

Suppose we need to get outta here in a hurry?

Then we're shit out of luck!

They're getting too riled up.

Do it tonight when they can't see you.

They know we're in here even if they can't see us.

What good is it to leave the gas tank empt--

The activity excites them, there are too many of them!

There's more and more of 'em every day.

If you get a lot more, come out and shoot some of 'em.

Otherwise stay inside the building, stay out of sight.

Thankfully we live in the suburbs, Johnson.

You ought to see how congested the city's gettin' to be.

Miguel, come on, let's get below.

Miguel [sighs], what can I do?

- You... - What?

Let me help--

No, I don't need help, I don't need help.

Come on, give me this.

I'm all right, I'm just tired!

You're not all right, you're collapsing from stress.

- Now, let me help-- - Collapsing from stress?

We're all collapsing, this whole fucking unit is collapsing.

Everybody except you.

I know you're strong, all right. So what?

Stronger than me.

Stronger than everyone. So what?

So fucking what?

[clamoring in distance]

That's a new grave.

Major Cooper, he died this morning.

And then there were twelve.

Burial this morning, that's why there are so many of them.

What's going to bring them tomorrow, Sarah?

And the next day and the next day after that?

There are hundreds of them over there.

Thousands-- a million of them!

You stick your head in the sand,

they're gonna come up behind you and bite off your ass.

This is bullshit what we do here-- it's crazy!

If you've got an alternative for what we're doing,

we'd be happy to listen to it.

I got an alternative-- yeah, yeah, I got an alternative.

Let's get in that old whirlybird there,

find us an island someplace, get juiced up,

and spend what time we got left soakin' up some sunshine.

- How's that? - You could do that, couldn't you?

With all that's going on, you could do that without a second thought.

[sighs] Shit, I could do that even if all this wasn't going on.

[motor sounding]

[alarm sounding]

Another waste of time, right?

You got that right, man.

- What'd you find? - Nothin'.

Nothin'?

- How far up the coast did you go? - Hundred miles each way.

Uhh.

Jump in here, soldier!

Gotta bring in two more dumb fucks, let's go!

[Sarah] Two more, what's Logan doing to them in there?

Get in here, soldier!

He's been awake for 24 hours, can't you get anyone else?

What anyone else?

There isn't anyone else-- we're it.

Two of you can't go in there alone, it's too dangerous.

Christ.

I'll go.

What's the matter with your friend there?

There's nothin' the matter.

Everything's all right, let's go.

[chattering]

[laughing] You got it, Steel.

[chattering continues]

[wild laughing]

[laughing and chattering]

Get out, come on, let's get to work! [hoots]

Christ, this shows the fifteenth is the last time he took any out.

That can't be right.

Oh, yeah, we forget to write 'em up sometimes, you know.

You've got to write them up. It's essential.

Can't you get that through your thick skull?

How the hell are we supposed to keep track of how many we got left?

[crowing]

[echoing]

[whistling and echoing]

Let's go, you dumb fucks, get over here!

Hey, here we are!

[groaning]

Come on!

Come on, you dumb fucks, come on, come on.

[pounding]

Come on you fish brains, what the hell's the matter with ya?

- Scared. - Huh?

They know what'll happen when Frankenstein gets 'em.

[Sarah] If you're right, Rickles,

then they're learning.

They're actually learning.

Come on, come and see what I got for ya!

Come on, you dickfaces, here's a nice one hangin'!

Come on, come and get it.

Come and try to bite it off.

That's it, Steel, whip it out!

That'll bring 'em on.

Fuckin' A, biggest piece of meat in the cave.

I don't want to excite the lady, though.

Not with your boyfriend around.

You're incapable of exciting me, Steel,

except as an anthropological curiosity.

- Ooh. - What the hell's that mean, Rickles?

It means you're a cave man, asshole.

You're a fuckin' throwback!

You been spending too much time underground, huh?

[laughs] It's okay, Steel.

Throwbacks all got big dicks.

All right, you dumb fucks!

Get over here, you scumbags!

Your old pal, Steel, wants to see ya.

Come on!

- Shit. - I'm coming up.

You're not strong enough for up here.

Send up the pole, I'll watch out for lover boy, don't worry.

What do you mean I'm not strong enough?

I've done it dozens of times.

I don't want ya up here, lady.

Send up the pole, they're gettin' closer.

He's collapsing for Christ's sake, look at him!

Let go of the pole.

- Listen to me. - Let go of the God damn pole!

Here they come, let's go!

Dumb fucks.

Puss breathing bags of shit.

You dumb fuckin' bags of shit, I'll kick your fuckin' asses.

Come on, come on, I'm frightened in here.

Scumbag.

[growling]

[Steel] Hook her up, will ya?

Hook her!

Hey, nice hat, asshole.

[yelling]

Come on, get the other one outta there!

[growling]

[male] Get in there.

[yelling]

Stay on her, Steel, stay on top of her!

- Cover! - Jesus!

That's it, that's it, I got her, I got her, come on!

Come here!

[groaning]

You almost killed Rickles.

Yeah, you almost fuckin' killed Rickles!

[growling]

Let him go, Steel.

He shouldn't have been up there in the first place.

You almost fuckin' killed Rickles!

Steel, stop it!

You dirty son of a bitch bastard!

Let him go, God damn it!

Or I'll cut you in half.

[yells]

Shut up, you dumb fucks!

I hope they chop you up for dog meat!

- Come on, Rickles. - [yells]

I hope you fuckin' rot!

Fuck you!

I'm not going to let you dope me up!

You need a sedative.

You're behaving dangerously.

I'm just trying to help you, Miguel.

Well, I don't need your help or anyone else's.

You made me look like an asshole out there.

You made me feel like a piece of shit.

You stay away from me with that, Sarah.

You stay a fu--

You bitch.

[groans]

We've got to have sterile conditions.

Half the work we do goes down the toilet due to contamination.

You'll work with what you got, Fisher.

But it's madness!

Can't you understand that what we're do--

I understand this.

You and your playmates,

you're runnin' out of friends fast around here.

[door bangs]

[sighs]

Look...

Major Cooper promised that we--

Major Cooper is dead.

I'm in command now.

And I'm telling you

that you work with what you got.

And you better start showing me some results

or you won't have that very much longer.

How can we show you results

when we don't have the proper working conditions?

We're in a desperate situation here.

We need each other. Can't we just get along?

You need us, the way I see it, lady.

I'm not so sure we need you at all.

[male] Fuckin' A.

I'm not even sure just what the hell it is you're doin' in there.

Just what the hell it is my men are riskin' their asses for.

Well, maybe if there was more cooperation around here,

your men wouldn't have to risk their asses quite as often.

[clicks]

Miguel Salazar's in bad shape.

Hey, no shit. [chuckles]

I want him pulled off active duty for a while

until we can evaluate his condition.

Can't spare him.

He's over the edge. He's turning into Jell-O.

Jell-O? That's the way the Spics says yellow-- Jello!

Miguel is seriously disturbed.

He's close to the breaking point and that's dangerous for all of us.

He can't handle anymore stress right now.

Well maybe I should cut off his extracurricular activities.

Maybe you're keeping him too busy at night.

We're talking about a man's life here, you son of a bitch!

And the lives of others he might put in jeopardy.

Maybe I should put him in quarantine.

How 'bout it, Steel?

You call it, Captain. I'll build him a cage. [chuckles]

[Captain] Yeah, it might not be a bad idea.

Give some of the rest of us a shot at some lovin'.

[Steel] Hey, it's gonna be a long winter. [chuckles]

[laughing]

Come on, Ted, let's get out of here.

I'm callin' a meetin' for seven o'clock tonight.

I want everybody present.

Everybody, lady, including Dr. Frankenstein

and including your boyfriend.

[Sarah] I gave him a sedative, he won't be awake.

Look here, woman!

I'm short on manpower.

I won't have you goin' around

dopin' up any of my men without orders from me.

- Is that clear? - Yes, sir.

Fuck you, sir!

[door slams]

Out of the frying pan, into the fire.

I thought Cooper was an asshole,

but he was a sweetheart next to Rhodes.

We could be in real trouble.

You better watch yourself, I mean physically watch yourself.

I can handle it.

Don't worry, it's not going to come to that.

We've just got to pound some logic into their heads.

- Impossible. - [sighs]

Where's Dr. Logan?

Frankenstein, he's in his laboratory, where else?

[male] There's a loss of initiative, caution,

many of the human cognitive functions.

Apparently the result of decay of the frontal and parietal,

temporal and occipital lobes.

On revival, the rate of decomposition slows substantially.

Indications are that these beings could function over a period of years.

Cases of early revival, ten to twelve years

before decay would threaten mobility.

[screams]

[growls]

The brain is the engine, Sarah, the motor that drives them.

They don't need any blood flow.

Don't need any of their internal organs.

I've severed all the vital organs in this one.

There's nothing left of the corpse but brain and limbs

and still it functions.

Look, Sarah, look.

[growls]

See, it wants me.

It wants food, but it has no stomach.

It can take no nourishment from what it ingests.

It's working on instinct-- on deep, dark, primordial instinct.

Decomposition occurs first on the frontal lobe-- the neocortex.

And next in the limbic system, the middle brain.

But the core--

the core is the last thing to be attacked by the decay.

It's the R complex, Sarah,

that central bit of prehistoric jelly

that we inherited from the reptiles.

Here, I've-- I've gone into the center here

and attacked the R complex discretely.

I've removed it from the equation in this corpse.

I believe this creature would be benign

even if it had its eye sight and its other senses.

Its primitive instincts have been erased.

[electronic hum]

[electronic hum]

It still has motor function.

Probably still has powers of deliberation.

It could be domesticated, Sarah, don't you see?

It can be conditioned to behave

the way we want it to behave.

And all that's required is 15 hours of fancy surgery

that only a handful of people are trained to do.

I thought we were going to stop work on the neurophysical

and concentrate on something more practical.

These finds are central to the condition.

I will not stop any work that might lead to an answer.

Let alone in an area that is central to the condition.

But you're just proving theories that were advanced months ago.

And you're not even proving them correctly.

You're making a lot of assumptions here.

You're wasting time trying to define what's happening

instead of looking for what's making it happen.

And just slicing up too many specimens!

It's extremely dangerous to go up on top

and round them up in the wild

when we can't control them!

What happened to this one?

It was too unruly, I couldn't handle it,

I had to destroy it.

We can still get information from it.

Dr. Logan, we are losing the cooperation of the men.

I'm not even sure they'll go up top

when we run out of the specimens we already have.

I'm not sure they won’t just try to shut us down completely.

Well, I'll show them results.

I'll show them results.

I'll show them that these creatures can be domesticated

even without the surgery.

Knowing what they are,

we can begin to approach them properly, condition them, control them.

We've got to do this, Sarah, it's our only hope.

Yes, this is Major Cooper.

I needed him, Sarah.

He's helping us more now than he ever did when he was alive.

But I saw the grave.

They buried one of the specimens.

Jesus, God, Logan!

Do you know what they'll do to you if they find out about this?

Do you know what they'll do to all of us?

But they'll never find out.

They can't be recognized.

[bang]

[gasps]

[whirring]

[groaning]

[male] Not a peep--

Long range or short, high band or low, I can't raise anybody.

[male] How can that be McDermott?

There must be other groups like us.

Somebody else must be trying to radio.

[male #2] Yeah, what the hell is this, man?

Maybe we are the only ones left.

I'm sure there's others.

This is not the best place to be sending from.

And a lot of the equipment I'm usin'

has been rotting down here since the Second World War.

Well, it's up to you to get it workin' right.

Lay off the fuckin' booze for a while, why don't ya?

And get somebody on that fuckin' horn!

Pronto!

Well, if we stay down here long enough,

I'll have to lay off the fuckin' booze, Steel,

'cause there won't fuckin' be any of it fuckin' left!

In the meanwhile, I will continue to indulge myself

and I will continue doing my best

in the good fight against dry rot and rust.

Yeah? Well, you're best ain't good enough.

Asshole.

You think I'm not aware of our situation?

Do you think I want to stay isolated down here?

You know I'd make a desperate effort to raise somebody just in the hope

of gettin' away from your nasty mouth, Steel!

The fact is...

The fact is...

either we are the only ones left...

or there's nobody within range

of my puny little Second World War signals.

[male] We used to talk to Washington all the time.

They could hear us then.

We were on relays then, we weren't over the air.

You know, the power's off on the mainland now,

in case you haven't heard.

And all the shopping malls are closed.

[Steel] We don't appreciate your fuckin' jokes, old man.

Keep it up, and I'll shove that bottle of yours right up your wise ass.

I've got better things to do than listen to this kindergarten.

Are we finished here?

No, we ain't finished here, lady, sit down.

What else do you want?

We've given you the reports for this week.

We given you everything you've asked for.

[Rhodes] You've given us a mouthful of Greek salad--

formulas, equations,

a lot of fancy terms that don't mean a thing.

I want to know if you're doin' somethin'

that's gonna help us out of this deep shit we're in.

Or if you're all in there just jerkin' each other off.

She don't have to jerk off like the rest of us, Captain.

She got herself an honest-to-God dick to get off on, huh?

[laughing]

It may be yellow, but it's still a dick, huh?

[laughing]

I said we ain't finished here, lady.

Sit down.

Sit down or so help me God, I'll have you shot.

You'll what?

I said I'll have you shot.

Have you lost your mind?

No, ma'am.

Have you?

I just told ya I was willing to kill ya If you didn't get back In your chair.

You didn't get back in your chair.

God damn it, you can't shove us around like this!

Since when did this become a military operation?

Since I took over.

Steel, shoot that woman.

Bang! You're dead.

Shoot that woman or you're dead.

You think I'm fuckin' around, Steel?

You're wrong.

Now, you got 'til a count of five and that's two you wasted.

That's three.

- Four. - Sit down, Sarah.

- What is this? - Shut up and sit down.

That's five, Steel. [cocks gun]

All right, all right!

No!

Anybody else have any questions about the way

things are going to run around here from now on?

This ain't a God damn field trip, people.

This is a fucking war!

I'm not down in this cave for my health.

I'm down here on orders.

Your orders are to facilitate the job of this scientific team.

This is a civilian team, Captain.

And we don't have to be subjected to your tyranny.

Who is being subjected to what, Fisher?

You've lost one man.

[men] Yeah, right.

We've lost five.

[men grumbling]

Where does it say we gotta keep those dumb fucks

next door to where we sleep?

Where does it say we should do any one thing

but shoot the mothers in their head?

[male] We don't have enough ammunition, Captain,

to shoot them all in the head.

The time to have done that would have been at the beginning.

No, we let them overrun us.

They have overrun us, you know.

We're in the minority now.

Something like 400,000 to 1 by my calculations.

I haven't eaten, is there food? [sighs]

You were supposed to be here at seven o'clock sharp, mister.

I know, Sarah told me, I'm sorry, I couldn't break away. Is there food?

Listen, egghead, let me bring you up to date on what's been--

- Excuse me. - Let me--

Excuse me!

Is there food?

I'm runnin' this monkey farm now, Frankenstein!

And I wanna know what the fuck you're doin' with my time!

'Cause if we're just jerkin' off here,

I'm gonna have my men blow the piss outta those precious specimens of yours

and we're gonna get the hell outta here

and leave you and your high falutin' asshole friends

to rot in this stinkin' sewer!

Is that food enough for ya?

Where would you go, Captain?

You can destroy my specimens, but what about the millions more

that are waiting to greet you outside?

Do you really think you can blow the piss out of them?

All of them?

They have you in a hopeless situation, strategically.

You're lost.

- But you're lost unless... - Unless what?

Unless what, Frankenstein?

Unless you can make them behave.

- [men mumbling] - [Steel] This Is a fuckin' loony bin.

I ain't bein' paid enough to work in a fuckin'' loony bin!

I ain't bein' paid at all!

Paid? [clamoring]

[Captain Rhodes] Ail right, shut up!

Just shut up!

What the hell are you talkin' about, Frankenstein?

I'll be able to show you soon enough.

Sarah knows.

She's seen the progress I've been making.

Isn't that right, Sarah?

Yes.

There's been some progress.

What kind of progress?

What are you talkin' about, "make them behave?"

What does that mean?

It means keeping them from wanting to eat us, for one thing.

It means keeping them in check.

It means controlling them.

Controlling them.

When are you gonna show us somethin' that we can understand?

Very close, very close.

I think in a matter of weeks.

I don't think there's any way you can tell

how long anything is going to take.

I could be months, it could be years

before we know exactly what we're dealing with here.

[clamoring]

Sarah's research-- Sarah's research!

Is more esoteric than mine.

She's looking for a way to reverse the process--

a way to eradicate the problem.

That could take a long time-- a very long time.

She may never find what she's looking for.

We have a limited supply of chemical agents.

Our equipment is hopelessly inadequate.

McDermott doesn't have decent radio gear.

Now you're tellin' me that you don't have the shit you need?

We're runnin' low on ammunition!

We're running low on men, for Christ sakes!

[Sarah] It was very rushed!

This operation was put together in a matter of days.

Yeah, well, it can all be taken apart in a matter of minutes, lady.

And I'm here to tell ya that I'm ready to do that little thing.

I'm ready to take the next train outta here.

[Dr. Logan] I ask you again, Captain--

Where will you go?

You have no choices.

You'll have to give us the weeks that we've asked for.

You have to give us however long it takes.

Look, there have to be survivors in Washington.

They have more sophisticated shelters than this one.

There have to be people in those shelters who know about us,

who know where we are.

With no radio contact, they'll come looking for us!

I said shut up!

[clunk]

You got a little more time.

A little more, I ain't sayin' how much.

But you better start showin' me some results

and you better not piss me off.

You understand?

Nothin' happens around here without my knowin' about it!

And anybody fucks with my command,

they get court-martialed,

they get executed.

You better know I mean it too, people.

[chattering]

He wouldn't have done it, I can't believe he would have done it.

No, he wouldn't have done it.

He would have had Steel do it.

He can't be that inhuman.

No, he's human.

That's what scares me, you know.

He won't shoot Billy.

'Cause he doesn't have anybody else who knows electronics.

He won't shoot me.

'Cause I'm his ride.

He probably won't shoot old Frankenstein

'cause the old doc can talk him silly.

But the rest of you...

better start worrying, you know.

Maybe if we tried working together we could ease some of the tensions.

We're all pulling in different directions.

Well, that's the trouble with the world, Sarah darling.

People got different ideas concerning what they want out of life.

[gasps]

You are afraid.

Aren't you?

Just as afraid as I am.

Why don't you take a sedative, Sarah, so you can sleep?

You're full of shit, Sarah, you know that?

You're really full of shit.

I'm through with you.

Fine, then.

Get out.

Just get out!

[growling and knocking]

[clunk]

[clamoring]

I'm all right.

Thanks, Bill.

I'm all right.

Here.

Just filled it up, got a refill as well.

No, thanks, I'm all right-- really.

It's just brandy.

Good for the heart.

Shit for the heart and eats up your liver.

[coughs]

[bat chirps]

We don't get a lot of visitors out here

and we like it that way.

Here it is--

The Ritz.

Madame.

John's probably out the back.

Hey.

Well, what do ya know?

Welcome to civilization, Sarah.

The last holdout.

It's pretty nice.

Nicer than we got inside.

Not a bad idea.

It's a little safer where you are.

But we like to live dangerously, Billy boy and me, you know.

That's a laugh.

I haven't seen you do anything dangerous since we got here.

We're stickin' around.

That's getting a bit dangerous.

As I hoped you noticed this evening.

You're a mystery to me.

You really are.

Not like those other goons in there.

You have a sense of...

Mm.

Of what?

Never mind.

No, no, no, come on, let's talk about it.

No, I came down here to get drunk.

I don't have the energy.

Hey, hey, it takes more energy to keep quiet

than it does to speak the mind.

Go ahead.

Let go of what you got now.

You were sent down here to do a job.

My job is to fly the whirlybird.

I been doin' that job just fine.

You have the protection of this facility, you eat our food,

you drink our water, and you don't lift a finger to help.

Neither one of you.

[chuckling]

We don't believe in what you're doin' here, Sarah.

[chuckles] Hey,

You know what all they keep down here in this cave?

Man, they got the books and the records of the top 500 companies.

They got the defense department budget down here.

They got the negative for all your favorite movies.

They got microfilm with tax return and newspaper stories.

They got immigration records and census reports.

And they got official accounts of all the wars and plane crashes

and volcano eruptions and earthquakes and fires and floods.

And all the other disasters that interrupted the flow of things

in the good old U.S. of A.

You know, what does it matter, Sarah darling?

All this filing and record keeping.

We ever gonna give a shit?

We even gonna get a chance to see it all?

This is a great big, 14-mile tombstone!

[distant clamoring]

...with an epitaph on it that nobody gonna bother to read.

Now, here you come, here you come

with a whole new set of charts and graphs and records.

What you gonna do?

Bury them down here with all the other relics of what once was?

I'm gonna tell you what else.

Yeah, I'm gonna tell you what else.

You ain't never gonna figure it out.

Just like they never figured out

why the stars are where they're at.

It ain't mankind's job to figure that stuff out.

So, what you're doin' is a waste a time, Sarah.

And time is all we got left, you know.

What I'm doing--

It's all there's left to do.

Shame on you, woman.

There's plenty to do, plenty to do.

So, as long as there's you and me and maybe some other people,

we could start over, start fresh.

Get some babies

and teach 'em, Sarah.

Teach 'em to never come over here and dig these records out.

Hey.

You want to put some kind of explanation

down here before you leave?

Here's one as good as any you're likely to find.

We been punished by the creator.

He visited a curse on us.

So, we might get a look at...

what hell was like.

Maybe he didn't want to see us

blow ourselves up

and put a big hole in his sky.

Maybe he just wanted to show us he was still the boss man.

Maybe he figure

we was getting too big for our britches--

trying to figure his shit out.

[whirring]

[clinking]

[click]

[knocking] [male] You son of a bitch!

[growling]

Damn!

[growling]

It's no good.

It's no fuckin'' good.

What is that stuff?

Something called beef treats,

which the army provides us with so generously.

- He won't touch it. - [sniffs] Shit, I wouldn't either.

Sorry, we're fresh out of filet mignon.

What is this--

part of Logan's plan to try and socialize these things?

[growls]

He told me himself they don't need for nourishment.

What are we hoping for here?

[Logan] Hoping to satisfy the urge.

You see, Sarah, they're--

They are us.

They are the extensions of us.

They are the same animal, simply functioning less perfectly.

They can be fooled, you see?

They can be tricked into being good little girls and boys.

Same way we were tricked into it on the promise of some reward to come.

They have to be rewarded. Reward is the key.

I'm convinced of that now.

Come, I've got something to show you.

[growling]

That wasn't very nice, you know.

That wasn't very nice at all.

[growling]

Let's go.

You can just sit there in the dark

and think about what you've done.

Think about it.

Think.

[microphone feedback]

I call him Bub.

That's what the club fellas used to call my father.

Can you imagine a surgeon called Bub?

Well, nobody seemed to mind, though.

Oh, he was rich.

My father was rich.

He used to say that I'd never-- I'd never be rich doing pure research.

- I'd never be rich. - [groaning]

Uh, Bub's been responding so well lately, I've let him live.

[groaning]

Well, is he alive or dead?

[chuckles] Well, that's the question these days, isn't it?

Well, let's say that I let him continue to exist.

Hello, Bub?

[laughing]

Here are some toys for you.

Some nice things for you to play with.

You remember them from before?

From before. [chuckles]

Now he's seen the other things before, but the book is new.

Look, look, look.

I thought he'd do that.

[writing]

Open it up.

He remembers-- he remembers everything that he used to.

Bub, I'm very pleased.

Very pleased.

What's he tryin' to prove?

I saw one of those things sittin' in a car in D.C.

Tryin' to drive down Independence Avenue.

It didn't make me want to be its friend.

No, what's amazing is not what this one does,

but what he doesn't do.

What do you mean?

He doesn't get excited and doesn't get agitated

when Logan walks in the room.

- He doesn't see Logan as... - Lunch.

Dinner.

- Breakfast. - Doesn't seem improbable-- Christ.

[male] Havin' fun?

What's he doin' in there?

No need of that, Captain, he's quite docile.

Come in.

You can all come in.

Bub won't mind.

Extraordinary, isn't it?

That's right, Bub.

Say hello.

Come on, Captain, give me a break, will ya?

Say hello to your Aunt Alicia.

Say, "Hello, Aunt Alicia."

Hello, Aunt Alicia.

Hello.

[slurs "Alicia."]

[clunk]

[clunk]

[Logan] Apparently, he was in the military.

Return a salute and see what he does.

You want me to salute that pile of walking puss?

Salute, my ass.

Your ignorance is exceeded only by your charm, Captain.

How are we going to set an example for them

if we behave barbarically ourselves?

Take the bullets out, please, and let me have your pistol, Sarah.

[growls]

[Steel laughs]

[cocks]

It's empty, Captain. I saw the bullets come out.

Let's see what he does, let's see what Bub does in this situation.

[click]

[groans]

Jesus Christ.

What are we supposed to do,

teach 'em tricks?

What the fuck is wrong with you people?

They're dead!

They're fucking dead and you wanna teach 'em tricks?

They have to be rewarded, Captain.

Why else will they do what we want them to do?

I don't want them to do anything but drop over!

Yes, well, apparently they're not inclined to do that for you, Captain.

Is this your progress?

Is this the shit that's supposed to knock our socks off?

It's the beginning, yes.

It's the bare beginning of social behavior--

of civilized behavior.

Civil behavior is what distinguishes us from the lower forms.

It's what enables us to communicate.

To go about things in a orderly fashion

without attacking each other like beasts in the wild.

Civility must be rewarded, Captain.

If it isn't rewarded...

then there's no use for it.

There's just no use for it at all.

Puss brain.

Where's my grabber, come on!

You got it?

Hey.

You got it?

[groaning and growling]

Now!

Ah!

No!

- No! - Miller!

Miller!

[yelling]

[Miguel] I didn't do it.

I didn't do it!

[yells]

[yelling]

[yelling]

Don't let this happen.

Don't let this happen to me.

I don't want to be one of them.

Take me, please take me.

[bang!]

[bat chirping]

[yelling]

[grinding]

I need fire.

[yelling]

[Rhodes in distance] God damn, Rickles...

[male in distance] Captain! Captain!

[male in distance] Steel!

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!

[men's voices] Hey, what the fuck is this?

[cocking]

Get out of the way, lady.

No...I amputated the affected area.

I think I got it in time.

Yeah, well what if you didn't?

If I didn't, I'll shoot him myself.

It's the Spic.

The yellow son of a bitch, it's his fault this happened.

It's his yellow fuckin'' fault.

Get out of the way, bitch, or I'll go right through you with this.

We're gettin' to make this a habit, man.

Pointing guns at each other, you know.

We just lost two men 'cause of this motherfucker.

Well, that kind of evens the odds between us then.

[Steel] The Spic's been bit, Captain.

We gotta blast him, he's been bit!

I got the infection in time.

That's bullshit, lady.

I seen a thousand of 'em.

He's gonna die.

If he dies, I'll destroy him myself.

Unless he gets you first.

You may still want to sleep with him.

I don't want him inside the complex.

We'll keep him out here-- with us.

We gotta blast him, Captain!

That'd be doin' him a favor, Steel.

You think he wants to walk around after he's dead?

You think he wants to be one of those things?

Think about it, lady.

And this about this, all of ya--

From now on, you ain't gettin' shit from me and my men.

Tomorrow morning we're goin' inside that corral and we ain't comin' out

'til every one of those rotten piles of garbage has been wasted.

Come on, Steel.

Get outta there, Steel, we got better things to do!

You're on my shit list, flyboy.

Thank you.

Let's take him inside, clean him up.

Think you can move him?

I-- I think so.

It's all right.

Shh, shh-shh.

Shh-hh.

Smallest one I got. Try it on.

Thanks.

I have to go to the lab.

He's going to need some morphine.

I want some other supplies.

I'd better go along.

I'm sure those boys haven't calmed themselves down yet.

I'm sorry I said those things about you.

I'm sorry too-- really.

Well, what do you know?

We are heroes after all.

What a relief.

Sarah.

He might not make it, you know.

I know it.

At least we gave him a chance.

I'll keep an eye on him.

Hey.

You guys be careful.

You're not back in half an hour, I'm coming up to look for you.

They'll leave us alone.

Half an hour.

We'll be back.

Jesus, God almighty.

Our resident surgeon has been burning the midnight oils.

What the hell has he been doin' down here, slaughtering cattle?

In his mind, that's probably not far from the truth.

[click] [tape rewinds]

[male on tape] George father's talking, his mind's talking.

[male #2] There, I put it away.

I put it away, Mother, I've put it away.

Bastard. [groaning in background] Be civilized!

[groaning and growling] Be civil!

Christ! Take that off.

[growling] Take that off! Take that off!

Five minutes, Mother.

Just five minutes.

My God.

[Sarah] Oh, my God.

[recording] Father taught me never cuss.

I wouldn't wear one of Father's-- [slam]

No, Sarah, don't!

It'll just bring out Rhodes and the men.

Leave it be, leave it be.

Let's go.

Let's get outta here.

I'm beginnin' to think we should take that helicopter

before somebody else does.

[door opens and closes]

[keys rattling]

Hello, Bub.

[Dr. Logan] Mother is very proud of you.

Very, very proud indeed.

You did quite nicely today.

[click]

[chorus from Beethoven's 9th Symphony playing]

[click] [music stops]

[click] [music continues]

I don't believe it.

Logan's star pupil.

Now, tomorrow [click] we can play with these things again.

Now, it's time for your reward.

I brought you something good.

What is that?

Is that--

It can't be.

Oh, oh, Jesus it can't-- [gasps]

[groans]

Good night, Bub.

What are you giving him in there, Frankenstein?

Uh!

What is it, huh?

What are you givin' him?

Scum!

No, you-- you must listen to me, Captain!

You must listen!

Listen to this.

Hold it, Fisher.

Torrez, get his gun.

[Rhodes] Take all their guns.

All of 'em.

All their fucking guns!

Take all their guns!

All their guns!

Those are my men in there.

My men.

Those are my men in there!

Let's sweep 'em up.

[men's voices echoing]

Hold it right there, Rhodes.

Frankenstein's dead.

This scum gets it next unless you throw your weapons out right now.

He means it, Johnny. He killed Logan in cold blood.

I killed Logan because he was a butcher.

I'll kill the rest of 'em one at a time

unless you get your black ass out here, flyboy.

Let him go, Rhodes.

Torrez, get his machete.

We're gettin' outta here, right now.

You give me any shit about it, I blow his head off.

The whirlybird can't hold us all.

Us all ain't goin'.

Me, my men, you-- that's it.

You'll never get me to do that, Rhodes.

No!

Rickles, open the gates.

Steel, shove 'em in there.

[clamoring]

Nice visit with McDermott, huh?

[groaning and growling]

Rhodes...don't do this.

Please.

You gonna give us a ride, flyboy?

I'll do whatever you say, man.

Let 'em go now.

Rhodes...let 'em out.

I'll take you... wherever you want to go.

Like you said, chopper can't hold us all.

Rhodes, don't do it.

You do it and I won't fly you.

I swear you can kill me before I fly.

Let 'em out.

That's the deal.

I make the deals around here.

Not you.

Now, you get your shit together, whatever you need.

Isn't there an old silo back there?

No, we can't go back there without guns.

[Sarah] We can't stay here, they'll tear us apart.

Oh, Jesus, Mary, and Joseph.

Don't shoot 'em!

We need his ass.

Steel, kick him around a little bit.

It might knock some sense into that jungle bunny head.

[male] Hey, Captain!

That's it, run, you fuckin'' lunatics.

They're gone, flyboy.

Let's go.

Not a chance.

[distant motor starts]

Jesus Christ, that's the elevator.

Check it out!

[groaning]

Oh, Jesus.

Rock slide, we can't get through.

Well, this way we can try and get around.

[clunk]

[screams]

[groaning]

[screams]

[screams]

[yells]

[gasps] Oh!.

Jesus! This way.

[bat chirps]

Let's go, Torrez, get up.

Son of a bitch, somebody took this apart!

The only other control's up on the platform-- the hand box.

[whispers] Oh, Jesus.

Rickles, we can't get outta here.

Fix it. Can't you fix it?

It's the fuckin'' Spic that did this!

Fix it!

Come on, man!

- Fix what? - Fix-- fix the box, man!

- Come on, fix it! - Fix what?

He tore the fuckin'' guts out of it, Rickles, I can't fix it!

It's in the book here, man, we can fix it!

The bastard.

[bat shrieks]

Sarah! [echoes]

Billy! [echoes]

John! [echoes]

Let's keep moving.

[growling]

[groaning]

[clamoring]

[yelling]

Hold the line.

Oh, fuck!

- What's goin' on? - The Spic.

He ripped these controls out, the little yellow bastard.

The little shit.

The little fuckin'' shit!

He tried to make a run for it.

[groaning]

[motor and alarm sounding]

[male] Holy shit!

Oh, really fuckin'' shit.

[groaning and clamoring]

Rhodes!

Rhodes, you bastard!

[yelling]

Shit.

Shit!

Fuck it!

Holy shit!

God damn it, Rhodes, open the door!

You son of a bitch!

Rhodes!

[click] Come on, you puss brain bag of shit.

Wanna learn how to shoot, Bub?

I'll teach ya how to shoot.

Come on, you bag of sh--

Oh!

Let's go.

Follow their red lights.

Temporarily out of service.

The ladder, go ahead-- up.

Up.

Come on, Johnny.

We're countin' on ya to fly us to the promised land.

Come on, come on.

Oh, my God.

Come on, come on!

Well, get in, get in.
