All language subtitles for Jeremiah s02e09 Running on Empty.eng

Previously on
Jeremiah...

What you did,
pulling Ridgeway together,

the alliance wants to do
for the whole country.

We're right on the border
of Daniel's group.

Just got the word, Sims.

The alliance conned another
town into joining up.

There's no safety
outside Daniel.

We'll stand
against the alliance

at a time of our choosing,
not theirs.

Burn it down.

They came to Ridgeway,

they torched the town,
took everyone prisoner.

- Who did?
- Sims.

(Libby): I wasn't even briefed
about the attack on Jeremiah.

(Sims): Daniel appreciates
everything we've done.

As long as we have someone
on the inside,

Jeremiah is more important
to us alive.

I saw you with him!

Who will believe you?

(Smith): How could you do
this to Jeremiah?

She was killed in the battle.

I did everything I could
to get to her.

It's not your fault.

I mean, there's no way
anybody could have known

this was going
to happen.

(Jeremiah):
I know where he is,

who he works for,

and when I find him,
I'll kill him.

I'll kill everybody
standing with him.

I'll kill them all.

Hey, Jeremiah.

Why don't you let me
take the wheel for a while?

You've been driving
for a lot of hours.

I'm fine.

I'm just saying...

No. I said I'm fine.

You!

Look, if this is about the last
edition of the paper,

I already said
I was sorry.

Don't fuck with me, Frank.

If you're trying
to build the town here,

you've got to take
bad press.

Libby's dead, okay.

Stop whatever it is
you're printing right now

and give me 500 of these.

This is the face and the name

of the guy who's responsible
for her death.

Now, I want him found.

I don't care what it takes.

Wait.

Do you want a bounty,

or "wanted dead
or alive", or...

No, I don't.

I don't want anybody
to lay a finger on him.

When he is found,
I want him brought to me.

I will kill him my bare hands.

It's been 15 years

since a strange disease
wiped out all of the adults

and left us kids
to fend for ourselves.

Now I'm moving ahead,

through the past.

Take that, will you?

Excuse me,
will you have a look at this?

I'm looking for this guy.
His name is Sims, okay?

I'm willing to pay
for information.

Excuse me, can I put
some of these out here?

Thank you.

Mister,
I'm looking for that guy.

If you see him
or you know anybody

that knows anything about him,
you let me know.

Hey.

Excuse me, have a look at
that. Have you seen this guy?

His name's Sims.

Is he still at it?

All morning, all day long.

I don't think
the man has slept.

Now, I've seen
Jeremiah pissed,

I've seen him happy,

I've seen him obsessed,

but what I saw in his eyes
when Libby died...

I don't ever want to see that
again.

You think he'll get over it?

Tomorrow, the next day,
when he gets some sleep?

No, I'm not
saying that.

I know what it's like
to lose somebody.

Then you know there's
something dangerous

inside him, right now...

Something nailed down
and in pain.

The only way
he's going to get over it

is by yanking the spike
out of his heart

and shoving it
into somebody else's.

Look, if you're
new around here,

I need you
to take a look at this.

I'm trying to find this guy.

His name is Sims.

Now, I know where
he comes from,

but I need to know
where he is, okay.

Here, take that.

Give it to somebody!

Look, I'm looking
for this guy.

I came as soon as I heard.

Here.

I'm sorry, Jeremiah.

You look like shit.

When's the last time
you ate or slept?

It doesn't matter.

Yes, it does.

I need you to be clear-headed.
I want to talk to you.

There's nothing
you can say

that I want to hear
right now, Markus.

Maybe, maybe not.

Just give me an hour.
We'll get some food in you.

I'll tell you
what I have in mind.

Then, if you don't like
what I have to say,

I'll take half of those
and pass them out myself.

Oh yeah?

Thank you.

You know, all of us here
have something in common.

We've all lost
somebody dear to us.

I lost Meaghan,

and, Kurdy,
you lost Elizabeth.

Smith,

you, uh...

I lost my way.

Uh, the point is,
is that everybody in this room...

I know what you're going
to say, Markus.

Save your breath.

Jeremiah...

You're going to tell me
that Libby's dead

and I need to get over it
and move on,

and it's all for
the greater final good.

That's not what I want.

You think I came all this way
to tell you to get over it?

I knew Libby too.

I liked Libby. We all did.

And I'm... I'm angry
about what happened,

but more than that,
I'm... I'm tired.

I'm tired of losing
what we love

because we're fighting
for what we believe in.

I'm not here to talk you
out of anything.

I'm here to help you nail
that bastard's head to the wall.

How?

The people who attacked
Ridgeway and Innsmouth

are the same ones
that did this.

The same ones
that killed Libby.

The description matches.

I'd say it's all part
of the same campaign.

It looks fresh.

This convoy was attacked
less than 24 hours ago.

Five dead, three missing.

Whoever did this
didn't take much.

It looks like they burned
most of it.

This isn't about stealing.

It's about fear.

It's about cutting off
our supply lines

and cutting off support
for the alliance.

We promised the towns
that joined up with us

we'd create and protect
free trade,

but there have been
five attacks like this

in the last few days.

People are afraid
to go on the road.

They think that
we can't protect them

if they stay home.

We have to prove otherwise.

Well, how do we
find them?

I mean, his ass could be
anywhere by now.

We don't.

We make them come to us.

All we have to do
is bait the trap.

A trojan horse...

Got it in one.

(Markus):
We let word leak out

that we're bringing in
a load of supplies

from Thunder Mountain...

Food, tools, clothes,
guns, you name it,

enough to make
even a dead man's mouth water,

make it clear
that what's in those trucks

is important to us.

Boy, is that a sight
for sore eyes.

They're carrying so many
goodies in there,

I'm surprised the tires
don't blow out.

Could you imagine
what you can do

with all of that stuff?

Nothing in the world
you couldn't buy.

Is all that for Milhaven?

No, it's going north in trade.

What for?

Don't know, but it must be
one hell of a deal.

Thing is, Markus wants
to keep this quiet,

so let's keep this between
you and me and the fencepost,

okay?

(Markus):
There's three primary means

of mass communication...

Telephone, television,
and tell-somebody-a-secret.

We give the rumors time
to grow out of proportion,

and people, being people,

will start to elaborate
on the story.

Pretty soon, everybody in town
will know somebody

who saw gold
and mountains of food

on those trucks.

Then we steal them,

and wait for the sharks
to take the bait.

Then we kill them.

You're sure
you know what to do?

Jeremiah...

I just want to hear it again.

If anybody asks,

you had to go back
to Thunder Mountain

for some big meeting
with Markus,

and no, I don't know
what it's about.

All I know is that
you left me in charge,

and not one hour
after you left,

some guys took off
with those trucks,

and Markus is going
to be pissed.

Thanks.

Do you need
anything else?

No.

Yes.

I don't know
if this is going to work,

but I can't afford
to take any chances.

Got to keep looking for Sims
on our own.

Anybody comes into town
who's seen anything,

anybody who has even
heard anything,

anybody knows anything,

you take 'em aside
and you show 'em that flyer,

find out what they know.

I can do that.

Take care of yourself
out there.

I will.

- Hey, Markus, I had an idea.
- Smith...

What are you doing?

You're not coming.

What do you mean I'm
not coming? You said...

I said
what we were going to do.

I didn't say
you could come along.

That's not right.
I should be there.

You're in no condition.
You'd just get yourself killed.

- Markus...
- The answer is no.

I'm sorry, Smith.

That's my final word.

- Ready to go?
- All set.

Okay. Hit it.

Well, we're in it now.

You told Erin what
she has to do?

She knows.

She has to make it
look convincing.

Have faith, will you?

Come on!

Stop those trucks!

They're getting away
with all of our stuff!

Stop them!

Fine. I'll do it.

Stop! Stop!

Oh, shit.

Jeez.

Told you.

That real enough for you,
Jeremiah?

You...

You'll never get away
with this.

No?

Why not?

We're under protection.

What protection?

I don't hear anything.

Do you hear anything?

The only thing I hear

is the beating
of your desperate heart.

You're all alone.

That's the message I want you
to take back to your friends.

You may think
you have protection,

but there is no protection
outside Daniel,

no safety outside of
what we choose to allow.

Anyone who signs on
with the alliance

will very quickly learn

who his friends
and who is enemies really are.

Sims, check this out.

We found it with the rest
of his stuff.

What do you think?

Is it me?

I think I'm much more
handsome than that,

but he didn't get my
good side, did he, Rod?

Which side is that?

Hmm.

Is this from Milhaven?

I'm not telling you squat.

Is that so?

All I know is, sooner or later,
you're a dead man.

You know, I picked you
out of the rest

because I want you
to send a message for me...

But the more
I think about it,

the more I realize

there are many ways
to send somebody a message.

The thing about sending
somebody a letter is

you always got to remember
to stamp it.

He'll get the message now,
that's for sure.

All right. Come on.

We've got work to do.

You still up?

Yeah.

You should get some rest.

We need to be alert

when we find these guys.

I'm fine.

Hey, I've
been around.

I've seen "fine",

and that ain't
it, my man.

I keep seeing Libby.

It's my fault. I should never
have left her alone.

You couldn't have
changed anything.

If I'd been there,
maybe...

If you had been there,

you probably both
would have been killed.

There's nothing anybody
could have done, Jeremiah.

That's the thing

that I've worked hardest
to get over

ever since
Elizabeth died.

You know, it's so easy

for us to think
we run the universe.

"If I would have
been there,

I would've done this, that,
and the other thing."

It's not true.

So what are you saying?

We're powerless?

What I'm saying is

we've got to let go

of the selfishness
behind that thought.

It's not about if
we're powerful or not.

It's about us being
the kind of people

the ones we loved
wanted us to be...

Not obsessed,

not living in the past,

not going over our mistakes
forever.

They wanted us to be living
in the moment,

living for the future.

And how long did it take you
to come up with that?

Months.

Sometimes, I'm there
more than other times.

I'm not there yet.

(chuckles)

I know.

I'm just giving you

a little look down the road.

Just so you know

that the moment
you do understand that

is down that road.

I don't want to go
down that road alone.

I mean, with Libby...
When Libby...

She just always made me feel
like I had a chance.

You know, like I was alive,

and the world was a better
place than it really is.

It is,

and you're not alone.

Look around, man.

What happened brought the
whole Mountain down here.

We'll get 'em.

How can you be so sure?

God told me.

Well, Smith's not here.
Somebody had to say it.

We're slowing down.

Trouble?

Just started.

Damn it.

Well, they were
definitely here.

Yeah, a few hours ago.

They could be a hundred
miles away by now.

Over here.

Oh, son of a bitch.

All right, look around
for any survivors,

and then we get back
on the road.

What about...

We can't leave any trace

that we've been patrolling
out here

in case they swing back
through the area.

We'll come back
when we're done.

There's always time
to bury the dead.

So I hear
you talk to God.

Lots of people
talk to God.

God talks through me.

It's a slight
difference.

Okay, which God?

There's all kinds
of gods out there,

jewish, christian,
muslim, hindu,

greek, roman...

I don't really think
he keeps track.

But you're saying
he's a he.

It's just easier
that way.

The voice isn't
male or female.

Then what does it sound like?

Like the voice
in the back of your head

that warns you

when you're about to do
something stupid,

except it's bigger,

a lot bigger.

You know, I really don't know
what to make of you.

I mean, the whole idea
is unbelievable,

but I really think
you believe this.

It's true.

Then can I ask God
a question?

It doesn't work
like that.

I'll make you cookies...

It doesn't work like that,
either.

Don't you get it?
Don't any of you get it?

I'm not trying to con you,

and I'm not trying
to make a living at this.

- No?
- No,

because any time someone says
you have to pay

to hear what God says,

whatever comes afterwards
isn't God,

that's for damned
sure.

I didn't ask for this.
I don't want this.

It's just... there.

Just out of curiosity...

does God have anything
to say to me?

Yes.

What?

Pass the pepper.

What?

I don't know
what god has to say to you.

He hasn't said it yet.
Could you please pass the pepper?

My arm is hurt.

Thank you.

How's it look?

I don't know.

I think I can get it
running again, but...

How long?

- It depends.
- How long?

If I have to get in,
pull the whole thing apart,

I figure maybe four,
five hours.

You've got three.

If the sun comes up
and this thing isn't working...

I'll do the best I can.

I don't like this, Markus.
If we get hit

and we can't move
to defend ourselves,

- we are sitting ducks.
- I know,

and while we're stuck here,

who knows what else
they're doing right now?

How are you doing?

I was just thinking
this is a first for you,

being this hands-on.

It's a big turn.

No, I told you

it's time
we came out of the Mountain,

showed our faces,

and in thinking of Libby, I, uh...

I think this is something

that Meaghan would've
wanted me to do.

You haven't talked about her
since...

I know.

Sims...

you're going to love this.

Our scout teams
just got back.

They've got some news

about your favorite people
in the world.

Oh?

Seems a couple of nights ago,
somebody drove off

with a bunch of supply trucks

belonging to the alliance.

What kind of supplies?

You name it...
food, parts, weapons.

They say
it was part of some exchange

between Thunder Mountain

and one of the big cities
up north.

If it's that valuable,
you can bet

that they're out looking
for those trucks right now.

Which is why it'd be sweet
if we found 'em first,

kind of add insult to injury,
you know?

I do indeed.
Tell the others

to keep a look out
for those trucks.

Even if
the people who stole them

have gone to ground,

they'll have to surface
sooner or later,

get rid of the merchandise.

I'd very much like us
to be there if that happens.

Daniel will be most pleased.

You got it.

Have you ever met Daniel?

I mean, have you ever seen him
in person?

No...

But how many people
in the old world, Rod,

how many soldiers
ever had the privilege

to meet the president
in person?

Not that it matters.

If there were no Daniel,

it would be necessary
to invent him.

So if you don't mind
me asking...

a guy like you
could write his own ticket.

Why'd you decide to work for
somebody you've never even met?

You wouldn't believe me.

Try me.

I grew up hard,

harder than most.

Fought my way
across half this country,

scratching and clawing
my way through anybody

who stood between me
and what I wanted.

I was in New York
when the cannibals were there.

I was one of the very few
to get out alive.

I marched
through the fires of Atlanta.

I was there the day
that Memphis went mad

and everybody started killing
everybody else,

just because.

My life is a river
of blood and fire,

always on the run,

sleeping with one eye open.

Didn't stop
a bunch of raiders

the night that they came
for me, beat me, robbed me,

threw me out
in the freezing cold to die,

no food, no water.

I crawled...

for days,

till finally, I just stopped,

waited to die.

I closed both eyes...

I guess I fell asleep.

When I opened them,

there was a coyote
standing over me,

and it spoke to me.

Come on. What the hell...

Not in words,

in its eyes.

It looked at me,

and its coyote eyes said,

"Go that way, east.

"There is someone
waiting for you,

Someone you've been looking
for all your life,"

and I said,

"Will he give me
the strength to live?

Will he give me
a reason to live?"

And the coyote eyes
said, "yes,"

and I said,
"Will he give me the power

to kill all those
who have ever wronged me?"

And the coyote eyes said,

"You'll be free to kill
whoever you wish,"

and then
I had the strength to walk

where the voice
told me to walk,

and in the end,

I found Daniel,

his city, his people,

his dream.

This isn't a fight

for the pieces of
the old world, Rod.

This is a war
of powers and principalities.

We are the coyote, Rod,
we are the wolf,

and it is time, long past time, that
we bared our teeth and fed.

Tell the others
we move out at dawn.

Powers and principalities...

How's it going?

I've almost got it.

He's almost got it.

So I hear.

We're too exposed
out here.

We have to get everybody
back in the trucks.

If these people
have scouts out,

I don't want them to see
what we're packing here.

(engine turns over)

(engine quits)

Son of a bitch.

(engine turns over)

Come on.

(engine revs)

(screams)

Oh, damn it!

I'm sorry, Markus.

No, no. You did good.
You did good.

Get that guy medical attention!
Get him to the back!

- We're short a driver.
- No, we're not. Here.

The guy in front's
the most vulnerable.

If there's a problem...

If there's a problem,
I can handle it.

All right,
fire 'em up, people!

We're hitting the road!

Sims, we've got a message
coming in from base.

This isn't the time.

I think you ought
to take it.

Sims here.

Problem?

We're running low on fuel.

If we don't
find these guys soon,

we'll have to head back,
try again later.

How much later?

To get enough diesel fuel
down from the Mountain,

- maybe a day or two...
- Two...

No, no, no way,
not two days, Markus.

This won't work.

These guys will never
fall for this a second time.

Nobody'll believe these trucks
are driving around for two days.

What do you want me to do?
The math is the math.

"X" amount of fuel equals "Y"
amount of time on the road...

Okay, so we split up,
divide the fuel.

Heads up, people.

Nobody around...

They could be in the trees.

You could hide
an army in there.

What's our escape
route look like?

We could turn around,

but it would take forever.

Stop the trucks here.

What are they
waiting for?

For us to make a mistake,

to expose ourselves.

Look, I can...

No, we hold our position
right here.

Let them come to us.

They could be circling behind
right now.

I need to draw them in closer,
Markus, where we can...

Negative.

I won't expose anyone
to unnecessary danger

unless I have no
alternative.

Forget this.

Kurdy...

What the hell are you...

Kurdy!

(guns cocking)

Whoa, whoa,
what is this?

Shut up fuck up.

All right, fellows,
I don't want any trouble here.

Give us the keys
to the truck

and there won't be
any trouble.

Damn it.

What?

Kurdy's in the line of fire.

What the hell's he doing?

He's trying to lure them
closer to the trucks,

get the others
to show their faces

so we can know
where they are.

Damn...

Jeremiah...

Give us the keys
to the truck.

Okay. All right.

Okay,

that's enough.

What the hell
are you doing?

I don't know why I send you
to talk to people.

You don't have the best
people skills.

You've got to talk
with these guys,

and once they know the deal,
everything will be okay.

Okay, listen,
here's the deal.

You let us go

or at least one of you
is going down.

I don't care which one.

You want to take that chance?

You're out of your mind,
you know that?

We got two on two here,
plus we got a guy in the truck.

That gives us the advantage.

You just signed your own
death warrant, buddy.

He's not here.

Who?

Sims, the guy in charge.

Are you sure?

You checked everybody?

Twice.

He's not here, I said.

(laughing)

You got something to say?

Yeah. You lose.

Sims got called back home
for an important meeting.

Oh, he really wanted
to be here,

but I'm sure he'd send
his regards.

- When did he leave?
- Screw you.

He wasn't there,

but you were, right?

That night at Innsmouth
when they attacked.

Jeremiah...

The night she died.

I've been there when all kinds
of people have died, chief.

What's one more?

Don't do it.

You said bring 'em in
and kill 'em.

During the fight,

but the fight's over.

We worse than killed them.
We beat them.

We crippled their operation.

These people are prisoners.

They'll face justice

at the hands
of the people they've harmed.

Yeah, and I'm one of those,
Markus.

You're not
the guy I want.

You're just some punk
that takes orders.

I want the guy
who gave the order.

You know why
you're going to lose?

You're too weak
to get things done!

Us,

we're willing to do
what's necessary.

You're soft,

and you're weak,

and you know what?

That bitch
probably deserved to die.

(gunshot)

Okay, load 'em up!
We're going home.

You okay?

Yeah, I was just...

I'm okay.

They're looking for you.

I know.

I know what
you're feeling.

I miss her, too.

Did you ever have to
kill anyone, Erin?

I don't mean
firing into a big group

when it's all a blur.

I mean really looking
into somebody's eyes, and...

It's a dangerous world.

The only way
anyone could survive

after the Big Death

is doing what was necessary.

Was that a yes?

Twice.

Did you ever stop
seeing their eyes

when you try to go
to sleep at night?

Yeah.

It takes a long time.

It takes a real
long time.

Anyway, we should
get going.

Remember when you asked

if God had anything
to say to you?

I lied. He did.

It's just, you know,
there's a time and place.

And I usually like to wait

until the coast
is clear, you know?

God says...

I saw your face
before you were born,

I knew your name
before it was spoken,

and I heard your voice
before you cried at birth,

and I bring
only beautiful things

into this world,

and you will, too,
in your time...

and one day,
not far away,

you'll have to leave Markus

and the safety and security
of the Mountain,

and you'll know

that you're walking
into the darkness,

and you'll go.

Your heart will light a path

your mind will not
want to travel,

but you'll do it anyway,

knowing that you'll never see
the Mountain again,

you'll never return,

and the next time
I hear your voice

and see your face,

the next time
I... I call your name,

you'll know that your
sacrifice was not in vain.

(Markus): I sent messages
to Ridgeway and Innsmouth.

They'll be coming
for the prisoners.

Before that, I want to
question these people,

find out what I can
about their operation.

At least we've got
a reprieve for a while.

Yeah, agree, it'll take a while

before they can put this
back together again.

I want some idea about
how much time we have.

With luck, we can stop the next
problem before it happens.

I'll get started.

Catch up with you later.

How are you doing?

What, do you mean
do I feel any better?

No,

and I won't,

as long as the guy
who did this

is still out there
alive somewhere.

Man, are you talking
about Sims or Daniel?

Daniel's just a name
so far, Kurdy.

Sims was there.

We deal with that,
and then we'll see.

You sound like a man
ready to go to war.

And you're not?

I don't know,

but the more I see
of these guys, the more it seems

like we may not
have much of a choice.

I'm going to find Smith
and hit the road.

Hey, uh, Kurdy...

Thanks for getting
my back...

Once again.

Same here.

'cause, you know,
we do make a pretty good team.

We could try it... more often.

Maybe so, Jeremiah.

Maybe so.

(Libby): When everything
happened before,

I thought
I was going to lose you.

What are you thinking?

(Jeremiah):
Usually, I'm, uh, different,

but with you,
something happened

that makes me kind of shy.

I like it.

(Libby):
Dance with me.

Dance with me.
