Deadly Invasion: The Killer Bee Nightmare (1995) - full transcript

( insect buzzing )

PATROL 2 TO DISPATCH.

Woman:
Go ahead, Lamar.

What you got for me?

I'M 15 MILES OUT ON THE 6.

LOOKS LIKE I GOT
SOME FARM WORKERS

HOLED UP
AT THE OLD BOWIE PLACE.

OKAY IF I GO
GET 'EM OUT OF THERE

BEFORE ONE OF THEM SNEEZES

AND THE WHOLE PLACE
COMES DOWN?

Ten-four, on that,
Patrol 2.



ANYBODY IN THERE?!

HAY NADIE ADENTRO?

HEY, FOLKS, PEACE OFFICER.

TIME TO RISE AND SHINE.

YOU'RE NOT EXACTLY
IN THE SAFEST PLACE HERE.

( buzzing )

( screaming )

THE DEPOSITIONS WERE SUPPOSED
TO BE HERE TWO DAYS AGO.

NO... WE ARE KIND
OF OUT OF THE WAY HERE.

NO. OVERNIGHT MAIL CAN'T
GUARANTEE NEXT-DAY DELIVERY.

I NEED TO REORDER THREE BOLTS
OF BLUE DAISY PATTERN.

YES, IT'S STILL MY
INTERIOR DESIGN BUSINESS

BUT MY BUSINESS IS
IN CALIFORNIA NOW.

YOU SENT IT
TO MY OLD BOSTON ADDRESS.



YEAH. CALIFORNIA.
BLOSSOM MEADOW,
CALIFORNIA.

BLUE DAISIES?

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I HAVEN'T GIVEN
ANY DEPOSITIONS.

DEPOSITIONS ABOUT WHAT?

YEAH. THIS WEEKEND.
YEAH.

AS LONG AS I
HAVE THEM BY FRIDAY.

YOU HAVE TO WORK
ON THE DEPOSITIONS.

( clearing throat )

DOES YOUR ENGLISH TEACHER
KNOW YOU'RE LISTENING

TO DAVID COPPERFIELD,
NOT READING IT?

YES, MOM.

HE GAVE OUT THE TAPES.

HAVE YOU SEEN THE BOOK?
IT'S HUMONGOUS.

WE'D NEVER READ ALL THAT.

( horn beeping )

I'M OUT OF HERE.

I'LL CATCH YOU GUYS LATER.

BYE.

DON'T FORGET TO
PICK UP THE, UH...

I WON'T DAD.
DON'T WORRY.

...MAIL FROM TOWN.

HEY.

GOOD MORNING.

SO WHAT DID MOMMY FIX YOU
FOR BREAKFAST THIS MORNING?

CAVIAR OMELET
AND ORANGE JUICE

SQUEEZED ON THE THIGHS OF
ISLAND VIRGINS, YOU DORK.

I'LL BE HOME FOR DINNER
UNLESS I'M NOT. BYE, MOM.

( horn beeping )

HEY, WE'VE ONLY BEEN
HERE THREE MONTHS.

GIVE IT TIME.

THERE'S A FRIEND OUT THERE

WHO'S AS ANXIOUS TO FIND YOU
AS YOU ARE TO FIND THEM.

SAY, CHUBBY BUBBLES.

CHUBBY BUBBLES.

ATTAGIRL.

( sighs )

BYE, SWEETIE.

( sighs )

HEY, JOHN SAYS
HE HAS SOMETHING

HE WANTS TO SHOW US
DOWN IN THE CELLAR.

IS IT GOING
TO COST US MONEY?

PROBABLY.

OH, NO.

HERE'S WHAT I WANTED
TO SHOW YOU.

OH, WOW.

MUTANT GOPHERS.

John:
NOPE. IT'S A CRAWLSPACE.

THE PREVIOUS OWNERS USED IT
TO TUNNEL VEGETABLES
FROM THE BARN.

I CHECKED.
IT STILL GOES THROUGH.

NOW, THE INSET HERE
IS 10 DEGREES COOLER

THAN THE REST
OF THE CELLAR.

I COULD ENCLOSE THIS
AND MAKE THIS
YOUR WINE STORAGE.

'COURSE IFFEN I DO THAT,
IT'LL CLOSE OFF THE CRAWLSPACE.

WE'RE COMFORTABLE
USING THE FRONT DOOR.

DEFINITELY.

"GOPHER" IT.

WE'RE NOT MY MOM AND DAD.

THANK GOD.

NO. I MEAN IT.

IT FINALLY HIT ME
THIS MORNING.

WHEN I WAS GROWING UP

MY MOTHER WASN'T RUNNING
HER OWN BUSINESS.

SHE ALWAYS HAD
PLENTY OF TIME FOR US

AND MY FATHER WAS HOME
EVERY NIGHT, 6:30 SHARP.

YOU AND I,
ON THE OTHER HAND...

WE GET THIS ORCHARD
UP AND RUNNING

WE'LL BOTH BE ABLE
TO CUT BACK.

YOU CAN HIRE SOME HELP
FOR THE DAY-TO-DAY STUFF

AND I'LL BE ABLE TO EASE
OFF ON MY LAW PRACTICE

SPEND MORE TIME
ON MY NOVEL.

JOHN GRISHAM, LOOK OUT.

HEY... I PROMISE
I'LL BE HOME

AS CLOSE TO
6:30 AS I CAN.

YEAH, BUT I WON'T.

I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT
IN TOWN TONIGHT

TO LOOK AT OFFICE SPACE.

CHAD, YOUR CAR KEYS.

HEY, RANDI.

OH, HI, MR. INGRAM.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING UP HERE?

SACRAMENTO'S GOT US
PUTTING OUT THESE TRAPS.

TRAPS FOR WHAT?

A.H.B.s

BEES, AFRICANIZED HONEY BEES.

YOU KNOW, KILLER BEES.

KILLER BEES?

AROUND HERE?

THE DEPARTMENT OF A.G. REP

I.D.'d SOME SPECIMENS
IN TALFORD, 35 MILES FROM HERE.

SACRAMENTO'S GOT
THE WHOLE VALLEY ON ALERT

JUST IN CASE.

I WOULDN'T LET IT
WORRY YOU.

WE'VE KNOWN THEY WERE COMING
FOR SOME TIME.

WE'LL BE READY FOR THEM.

( sighing )

NOBODY SAID ANYTHING
ABOUT KILLER BEES

WHEN WE WERE SHOPPING
FOR A HOUSE.

KEN.

CHAD, COME ON OVER.

COME ON OVER, CHAD.

COME ON OVER. IT'S ALL RIGHT.

KEN... I, UH...

I SPLIT OFF YOUR 50% INTEREST
IN THE FAMILY'S BEE BUSINESS

AND INSERTED LANGUAGE
TO INCLUDE YOUR NEW WIFE

BUT I WANT TO GO OVER
THE PERCENTAGES WITH YOU

MAKE SURE I'VE GOT THEM RIGHT.

20% COMES FROM
HONEY SALES, RIGHT?

AND THE OTHER 80% COMES
FROM POLLINATION SERVICES...

SOUNDS PERFECT.

HOW MANY BEES
DO YOU HAVE HERE EXACTLY?

THIS LOCATION?
LET'S SEE...

50,000 PER HIVE, 12 HIVES,
SOMETHING LIKE 600,000.

BUT MY HIVES
ALL OVER THE VALLEY--

IT'S SOMETHING CLOSER

TO 25 MILLION IN ALL.

AND THAT'S
JUST ME.

THERE'S FOUR OTHER
BEE FARMS AROUND HERE.

100 MILLION?

AREN'T YOU AFRAID
OF BEING STUNG?

NO. YOU'VE GOT TO GIVE THEM
A REASON TO STING YOU.

IF YOU'RE COMFORTABLE WITH BEES

THEY'LL BE COMFORTABLE
AROUND YOU.

HERE.

I'M GOING TO NEED YOU
AND YOUR FATHER

TO SIGN THIS.

YOU AND KAREN ARE
STILL PLANNING ON COMING

TO THE WEDDING, RIGHT?

YEAH.

YEAH, MY DAD'S RACING A SHELBY
DOWN IN CROWNLEY THIS WEEKEND.

YOU GOING?

OF COURSE.

MY DAD MADE ME
PART OF THE PIT CREW.

HE PROMISED I COULD DRIVE
ONCE I TURN 18.

TRAVIS, YOU THINK MAYBE
YOUR DAD COULD USE SOMEBODY ELSE

DOWN AT CROWNLEY?

I'M REAL GOOD
WITH ENGINES.

LIKE MY DAD'S GOING TO LET YOU

GET ANYWHERE
NEAR THE SHELBY'S ENGINE.

BUT YOU COULD SHOW UP
AT THE GARAGE

AT 6:00 SATURDAY MORNING

AND RIDE DOWN
WITH US.

OKAY. OKAY.

DON'T BE LATE, MAN.

I WON'T.

SO, WHAT WAS ALL THAT
ABOUT BACK THERE?

NOTHING.

TRAVIS-- HE WANTS ME
TO HELP OUT HIS OLD MAN

WITH SOME RACE
THIS WEEKEND.

WE'RE OUT OF HERE.

WE'RE GOING UP
TO THE INTERSTATE.

WE GOT THIS REALLY
RADICAL THING WE DO

WITH THE TRUCKERS

WANT TO COME?

I KNOW WHY
YOU WANT HER TO COME.

NO, I CAN'T.

I GOT TO GO
TO THE LIBRARY.

MR. WASHBURN WANTS AN OUTLINE
OF MY CLASS PROJECT BY TOMORROW

OR HE'S GOING
TO FRY ME.

YOUR LOSS.

SEE YA.

FRANK...

FRANK, LISTEN, YOU'RE NOT
LISTENING TO ME.

LUCY, HONEY, DON'T FORGET

THAT'S THE WHOLE IDEA, PUMPKIN.

GUESS WHAT I'M
GONNA NAME HER.

TINA.

TINA.

DRIVING OVER HERE I PASSED
A DEPARTMENT OF AG REP

WHO WAS SETTING OUT
SOME SORT OF TRAPS.

BEE TRAPS.

FOR KILLER BEES.

OH, YEAH.

THEY'RE ON THEIR WAY.

THIS DOESN'T BOTHER YOU?

NAH. WE'VE KNOWN ABOUT IT
FOR YEARS.

I TOOK A CLASS
A COUPLE OF SUMMERS AGO.

THEY'RE NOT REALLY KILLERS
IF YOU KNOW HOW TO HANDLE THEM.

THEY'RE JUST
MORE AGGRESSIVE

IN DEFENDING
THEIR TERRITORY
THAN THE EUROPEAN BEES.

IF YOU MESS WITH THEIR HIVE
OR THEY PERCEIVE YOU
TO BE A THREAT

THEY'LL COME AT YOU
FAST AND FURIOUS.

THEY ATTACK IN GREATER NUMBER
THAN OUR KIND OF BEES.

THEY DON'T GIVE UP AS EASILY.

AND NONE OF THIS
WORRIES YOU?

NAH.

DAD?

DAD, WHAT'S WRONG?

THEY ARE UPSET.

SOMETHING HAS THEM VERY UPSET.

HAS WHO UPSET?

THE BEES.

HURRY UP.

SOMETHING'S PINCHING ME.

OW, SOMETHING'S REALLY PINCHING.

ME TOO.

OH, GOD.

BEES!
WHERE ARE
THEY COMING FROM?

WHO CARES!
GO, GO!

GO!

( horn honking )

I'M GETTING STUNG ALL OVER.

SO AM I.

( crashing )

( buzzing )

IT'S MY GIRL, CHAD.

HER AND TRAVIS WERE
OUT ON THE INTERSTATE

WHEN SOME TRUCKER JUST
PLOWED RIGHT INTO THEM!

OH...

DO YOU REALIZE THIS
TRUCK DRIVER'S STILL UPSTAIRS

AND HE'S THE ONE
THAT'S GOING TO LIVE?

LISTEN, I WANT THIS GUY.

I WANT HIM, AND YOU'RE
GOING TO HELP ME.

I WANT TO PROSECUTE HIM
AND HIS WHOLE DAMN COMPANY!

MY ADVICE TO YOU IS
FORGET ABOUT THE TRUCKER.

HE'S NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

YOU'VE GOT TO THINK
ABOUT LOIS AND THE KIDS.

JUST SO LONG AS WE DON'T LET HIM
SNAKE HIS WAY OUT OF THIS.

I DON'T THINK
IT WAS THE TRUCKER'S FAULT.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
IT WASN'T HIS FAULT?

BOTH KIDS HAVE
LATERAL SCRATCH MARKS, PERRY,

MAINLY ON THEIR ARMS,
LEGS, NECKS.

THESE AREN'T
FROM THE ACCIDENT.

THEY'RE SELF-INFLICTED
FROM THE KIDS' OWN FINGERNAILS.

WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I DON'T THINK TRAVIS WAS
PAYING ATTENTION TO THE ROAD.

I THINK HE WAS
UNDER MASSIVE ATTACK

AND WAS TRYING TO GET AWAY.

MASSIVE ATTACK?

GET AWAY FROM WHO?

YOU'RE NOT DOING
A HECK OF A LOT THERE.

TRAVIS WAS, LIKE,
THE COOLEST GUY IN TOWN.

AND HE'D TALK TO ME--
YOU KNOW?

HE'D LET ME HANG OUT
WITH HIM...

MORE THAN ANYBODY ELSE
IN THIS STINKIN' TOWN EVER DID.

HE DIDN'T DESERVE TO DIE.

WHAT IS IT THEY'RE
USING TO KILL THE BEES?

THEY SAID IT'S SOME KIND
OF A DETERGENT MIX.

PLAIN OLD
SOAPY WATER.

IT CLOGS BEES' PORES,
SUFFOCATING THEM.

JOSHUA, WANT TO SAY HELLO

TO MR. AND MRS. INGRAM?

HI, JOSH.

HIYA, JOSH.

HE'S IN ONE OF HIS MOODS.

THE WEDDING AND ALL
HAS GOT HIM ON THE WARPATH.

SO DID YOU KNOW
THE KIDS THAT DIED?

KRISTYN WAS A FRIEND
OF OUR OLDEST DAUGHTER TRACY.

I USED TO COACH TRAVIS
IN SATURDAY MORNING SOCCER.

HI. CHAD, KAREN, I WANT YOU
TO MEET MY FIANCEE LINDA.

HELLO, LINDA.

HI.

HI, LINDA.

JOSH, WANT TO GO
DOWN TO THE CAR

AND GET SOMETHING
TO DRINK?

NO.

I BETTER GO GET HIM.

I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE MOVING
HERE FROM SAN FRANCISCO.

YEAH. I MET KEN WHEN HE WAS
UP THERE ON A BUSINESS TRIP.

THE TRAPS
I'VE PUT UP

HAVEN'T TURNED UP
ANYTHING.

"COULD BE?" WE'VE BEEN
GETTING ALERT BULLETINS
FOR A COUPLE YEARS.

CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG,
BUT SHOULDN'T WE BE WORRIED?

THERE'S AN INFESTATION
OVER IN PEYTON.

CONSENSUS IS THAT'S
WHERE THEY'RE HEADED.

I'M THE MAYOR HERE.

I'VE GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE
ASKING A LOT OF QUESTIONS

LIKE, "JUST WHAT
SHOULD WE DO HERE?"

I MEAN, TWO KIDS DEAD
IS PLENTY.

YOU'VE SET TRAPS;
THAT'S GOOD.

HAVE YOUR LOCAL
COMMERCIAL BEEKEEPERS

IF THEY NEED TO RE-QUEEN
HIVES, DO IT.

HOLD BEE DRILLS
IN YOUR SCHOOLS.

BEE DRILLS?

THEY'RE DOING IT
ALL OVER THE STATE.

HERE ARE PAMPHLETS
AND FACT SHEETS

FROM THE U.S.D.A.
AGRICULTURE
EXTENSION SERVICES.

POST THEM AT
YOUR LOCAL BANK

OR ANYPLACE
TOWNSPEOPLE SEE THEM.

THAT'S IT?

THAT'S THE GOVERNMENT'S

"AFRICANIZED HONEY BEE
DRAFT ACTION PLAN."

IF THERE'S ANY MORE
SIGHTINGS LIKE THE LAST ONE

PLEASE GIVE US A JINGLE.

( sighs )

YOU READY FOR
THE LATEST NEWS?

I JUST HEARD
THAT KILLER BEES
COME INTO AN AREA

AND THEY MATE
WITH THE LOCAL BEES

AND PRETTY SOON, ALL OF
THEM ARE KILLER BEES.

IT'S GREAT, HUH?

WELL, THEN, WHY DON'T WE
JUST GET RID OF THEM ALL

AND START OVER?

WE NEED BEES, DARLIN'.

80% OF THE AVERAGE
AMERICAN DIET

IS DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY
DEPENDENT ON CROPS

POLLINATED BY BEES.

THAT IS AN INDISPUTABLE FACT.

HONEYBEES IN THE U.S.

POLLINATE CROPS WORTH
$10 BILLION A YEAR.

THAT IS BA-BILLION--
WITH THE "B."

THEY ALSO PRODUCE
IN THEIR SPARE TIME

$150 MILLION WORTH OF HONEY.

WHO ARE YOU?

OH...
I'M JUST ANOTHER
BUG WATCHER.

THE NAME IS BEAUCHAMP.

( sniffs )

PREWITT TAYLOR
BEAUCHAMP.

BUT FOR SOME REASON,
THE BEES-- THEY LIKE
TO CALL ME "CHIP."

( buzzing )

OOH...

( chuckling )

BEATS THE HELL
OUT OF A CUP OF COFFEE

FOR KEEPING YOU ALERT.

( sniffs )

MMM... OH, WAIT
A MINUTE.

THANK YOU, DARLIN'.

THE HAPPY VARIETY
OF BEES WE'VE ALWAYS
HAD IN THIS COUNTRY

IS THE APIS MELLIFERA.

THE OTHER GUYS
ARE CALLED

APIS MELLIFERA SCUTELLATA.

FOR SOME REASON,
I ALWAYS THINK OF THEM
AS THE SHARKS AND THE JETS,

WITH THE SCUTELLATA SINGING,
"I WANT TO LIVE IN AMERICA."

WHO DID YOU SAY
YOU WORK FOR, AGAIN?

UH, WELL, CURRENTLY,
I AM NOT WORKING FOR ANYBODY.

THE MAINSTREAM AND I DIDN'T
SEE PARTICULARLY EYE TO EYE.

BUT I HAVE WORKED THE CIRCUIT--

YOU KNOW, BELTSVILLE,
TEXAS A & M, CARL HAYDEN.

WHY DID YOU STICK AROUND
OUT THERE ON THE INTERSTATE

WELL, I'M NOT CONVINCED THAT
YOUR BEE PROBLEM IS FINISHED.

BEES... THEY DO THIS THING
CALLED SWARMING.

IT'S WHERE PART OF
THE PRIMARY COLONY BREAKS OFF
TO LOOK FOR A NEW HOME.

NOW, TO MAKE SURE THEY HAVE
ENOUGH ENERGY FOR THE HAUL,

THEY ENGORGE THEMSELVES WITH
HONEY BEFORE HITTING THE ROAD.

THE BEES I OBSERVED
ON THE INTERSTATE

WERE STILL PRETTY
FAT AND SASSY--

MEANING THEY HADN'T TRAVELED

ALL THAT FAR
FROM THE PRIMARY COLONY,

MEANING, MOST LIKELY

THAT THE PRIMARY COLONY
IS OUT THERE SOMEWHERE

NOT TOO FAR AWAY.

I'VE BEEN KEEPING BEES

FOR OVER 30 YEARS
AS A HOBBY.

I THINK THIS KILLER BEE
BUSINESS IS SLOP.

YOU'RE THE CAPTAIN, CAPTAIN.

IF YOU WANT TO IGNORE
THE LIGHTHOUSE

AND KEEP STEERING YOUR BOAT

TOWARDS THE ROCKS,

THAT'S YOUR DECISION.

YOU COULD PROBABLY WITHSTAND
A PRETTY SIZEABLE ATTACK...

MAYBE.

UNLESS YOU'RE ONE OF
THE UNLUCKY ONE IN 200

THAT HAPPENS
TO BE ALLERGIC.

NOW, LITTLE KIDS, OLDER PEOPLE--
AS FEW AS FIVE BEE STINGS

COULD SET OFF AN ATTACK
OF ANAPHYLAXIS--

SHORTENING OF BREATH,

FALLING BLOOD PRESSURE--
ULTIMATELY LEADING

TO CIRCULATORY
AND RESPIRATORY COLLAPSE.

COULD YOU PASS ME
THAT PEPPER, PLEASE?

IT'S STILL JUST
A LITTLE BEE STING
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT "JUST A LITTLE
BEE STING" REALLY IS?

THE STING ITSELF
IS MADE UP OF TWO
ULTRASHARP BARBED BLADES

SURROUNDED BY PROTECTIVE PLATES
AND HARD MUSCLE

ALL ATTACHED TO A SAC
THAT IS FILLED WITH VENOM.

NOW, WHEN A BEE STINGS YOU

THESE BARBED BLADES
SCISSOR THEIR WAY

INTO YOUR FLESH.

THAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU FEEL

BUT IT CERTAINLY ISN'T THE LAST,
BECAUSE NEXT

THE BARBS ON THE BLADE--
THEY KIND OF DIG IN--

YOU KNOW, SO THAT EVEN
WHILE THE BEE TAKES OFF

THE STING IS LEFT BEHIND,
ANCHORED IN YOUR FLESH.

I MEAN, THE BEE
IS LONG GONE

BUT THE STING
IS NOT FINISHED.

IT CONTINUES TO THROB.

IT CONTINUES PUMPING
PAIN-INDUCING VENOM

INTO YOUR BLOODSTREAM.
IS IT FINISHED NOW?

BECAUSE THE STING IS ALSO
GIVING OFF THIS ALARM ODOR

SIGNALING OTHER BEES
THAT YOU ARE THE ENEMY,

MORE BEES ATTACK,
MORE VENOM IS DELIVERED,

MORE ALARM ODOR IS RELEASED.

THAT PAIN-- OH!
IT'S EXCRUCIATING!

YOUR BLOODSTREAM'S
FILLING UP

WITH TOXIC LEVELS
OF THEIR POISON

AND IF YOU'RE NOT OUT OF THERE
BEFORE LONG, YOU ARE DEAD.

SO, MY FRIEND
THAT'S WHAT YOU MEAN WHEN YOU
SAY "JUST A LITTLE BEE STING."

MULTIPLY IT BY THOUSANDS.

THAT'S WHY THEY CALL THEM
"KILLER BEES."

( buzzing )

Preacher:
I CANNOT CONCEIVE OF A MORE
BEAUTIFUL DAY TO BRING TOGETHER

TWO SUCH WONDERFUL YOUNG PEOPLE
IN THE BOND OF HOLY MATRIMONY,

HERE AMONG THEIR LOVING
FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

KENNETH, I'VE KNOWN YOU
SINCE YOU WERE THIS HIGH,

SO IT IS ESPECIALLY FITTING
THAT WE ARE ALL GATHERED HERE

ON THE OLIVERTI FAMILY LAND.

LINDA AND KENNETH, MAY YOUR LOVE
FOR ONE ANOTHER ENDURE

AS THE EARTH
ITSELF ENDURES.

IT IS WITH ABIDING JOY
THAT I NOW PROCLAIM YOU

HUSBAND AND WIFE.

( "The Wedding March" plays )

Man:
MY TURN TO KISS THE BRIDE.

( sighs )

I THINK WE ARE
IN BIG TROUBLE HERE.

ALL THESE FLOWERS?

IT'S THE WORLD'S OLDEST
WEDDING FORMULA:

WHEN THEY SPEND
THIS MUCH MONEY ON FLOWERS
THE FOOD IS GOING TO SUCK!

ENJOYING YOURSELVES?

OH, ABSOLUTELY.

A BEAUTIFUL CEREMONY,
REALLY.

CHAD, CAN, UH, I PULL YOU AWAY
FOR A SECOND?

MM-HMM.

MM-HMM.

Linda:
JOSH, YOU LOOK GREAT, YOU KNOW.

YOU LIKE YOUR TUXEDO?
YOU LOOK LIKE YOUR DAD.

JOSH, THE BAND
IS SETTING UP.

THEY'RE GOING TO PLAY
MUSIC REAL SOON.

I WOULD LOVE IT
IF YOU WOULD DANCE WITH ME.
WILL YOU DANCE WITH ME?

NO!

GIVE HIM TIME.

HE'LL COME AROUND.

OH, I HOPE SO.

( band tuning instruments )

( high-pitched feedback
squealing )

( feedback continues )

( buzzing )

( feedback continues )

( buzzing loudly )

( playing rock 'n' roll intro )

( music blasting )

( buzzing becomes louder )

DAMN!

( screaming )

OW!

Man:
THEY'RE IN MY SHIRT!

( screaming and yelling )

Woman:
GET OFF ME!

STOP IT! STOP IT!

KEEP MOVING!

OH, CHAD.

GET ON IN.

OH, MY GOD!
THEY'RE ON MY LEG!

KEEP MOVING!

I'M COMING, JOSH!

DON'T WORRY!
I'M ALMOST THERE!

LINDA!

EVERYBODY, COME ON!

LINDA!

JOSH, I'M HERE.

YOU'LL BE OKAY.

LET'S GO! HURRY UP!

COME ON! COME ON.

CLOSE THAT DOOR!
HURRY UP!

COME ON! COME ON!
LET'S MOVE!

HEY! LOOK AT THIS.

Woman:
CONSIDERING THE MAGNITUDE
OF YESTERDAY'S ATTACK,

DOES YOUR DEPARTMENT HAVE
ANY SPECIFIC PLAN
OF ACTION NOW?

THE BEE INCIDENT
THAT OCCURRED AT THE WEDDING

IS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT CITIZENS
LIVING IN A "BEE RED ZONE"

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT
RESPONDED QUICKLY

AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES.

YOU MENTIONED
A "BEE RED ZONE."

HAD YOUR DEPARTMENT

DESIGNATED THIS TOWN
A RED ZONE?

BASED ON MY REPORT,
WE WERE ABOUT TO, YES.

I WON'T LIE.
THIS VALLEY MAY HAVE
ONE SERIOUS INFESTATION

THE PROBLEM IS
IT DOESN'T TAKE MUCH
TO SET 'EM OFF.

I MEAN, THE SLIGHTEST MOTION,
VIBRATION...

THEY PARTICULARLY HATE
LOUD NOISES.

OH, AND ODORS...
STRONG PERFUMES, EVEN B.O.

DO YOU REALIZE WHEN A BEE
DELIVERS HIS STING-- WHAM!

THAT IS IT.
HE IS HISTORY.

BUT THEY'RE STILL WILLING
TO ATTACK BY THE THOUSANDS--

OR TENS OF THOUSANDS.

AN ARMY MADE UP
OF TENS OF THOUSANDS OF WARRIORS

WILLING TO DIE
TO ELIMINATE THE ENEMY...

( chuckles )

NAMELY, YOU.

THINK ABOUT IT.

( chuckles )

HELLO.

OH, HI.

HOW ARE YOU?

( children squealing playfully )

Woman:
THIS IS A BEE DRILL!

QUIET DOWN NOW.

( children yelling )

GO INSIDE.

HEY, JOHN.

I THOUGHT YOU'D
BE GONE BY NOW.

THE EXTRA PROTECTION
YOU WANTED--

THE WINDOW SCREENS,
THE NETTING--

THEY'RE OUT OF 'EM.

I REALLY APPRECIATE
YOU DOING THIS.

KAREN IS GETTING
A LITTLE NERVOUS.

HOW BAD DO YOU THINK
THIS IS GOING TO BE?

YOU WERE AT THE WEDDING.

THAT'S WHAT
THESE BEES ARE LIKE.

IT DON'T TAKE MUCH
TO SET 'EM OFF.

THE THING THEY DO
THAT I DON'T LIKE

IT'S CALLED
"DISTURBANCE ABSCONDING."

WHAT'S THAT?

IF A COLONY GETS DISTURBED
BAD ENOUGH

THE WHOLE THING WILL JUST
UP AND TAKE OFF IN A HUGE MASS

AND GO LOOKING FOR A NEW HOME.

I GOT THIS STUFF--

SOMETHING FOR YOU AND THE GUYS
TO HAVE OUT HERE...

UH-HUH.

JUST IN CASE.

DID YOU TALK WITH
THAT PICKER CREW BOSS

ABOUT SEEING THE GROVE?

HE'S COMING OUT
THIS AFTERNOON.

I WAS HOPING THAT YOU
OR THE MISSUS

CAN DRIVE HIM OUT
FOR A LOOK.

SURE.

GREAT.

Man:
There's no use denying it.

The deadly migration
of killer bees is upon us

and officials say
instead of slowing down

the infestation
is actually speeding up.

No place is this more evident
than in Blossom Meadow.

Here again
is the amateur video

of the bee attack
that occurred yesterday

at an outdoor wedding there.

The venom from killer bees
is not any more poisonous

than domestic bees.

Killer bees are so defensive

that if you disturb their colony
they'll come after you

in very large numbers,
and all victims can do is run.

Once killer bees
invade a commercial hive...

AREN'T THEY SICK
OF SHOWING THAT YET?

THEY'VE PLAYED IT
ON EVERY CHANNEL

LIKE SIX ZILLION TIMES
ALREADY.

WELL, I WISH
I'D BEEN THERE

WITH A STINKIN'
FLAMETHROWER.

I HEARD BOB DRAKE
GOT $5,000

FOR SELLING THAT VIDEO
TO THE NEWS.

IT WAS MORE LIKE 500.

THAT'S NOT WHAT
DANNY OLSON SAYS.

YEAH. EXAGGERATE
A LITTLE MORE.

YOU SAW HOW THEY ATTACKED
LITTLE JOSHUA YESTERDAY.

WHAT IF...
WHAT IF THAT HAD BEEN...

DON'T.

YOU WEREN'T AT SCHOOL TODAY.

YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN
THIS BEE DRILL.

EVERY SECOND GRADER
IS GOING TO BE SLEEPING
IN MOMMY AND DADDY'S BED.

HEY, WE USED TO HAVE DROP DRILLS
BECAUSE OF THE H-BOMB.

DON'T THINK THAT DIDN'T SCARE
THE GRAHAM CRACKERS OUT OF YOU.

EXACTLY. OH, CHAD, I'VE GOT
ONE OF MY REALLY BAD FEELINGS

ABOUT ALL OF THIS.

RIGHT HERE
IN THE PIT OF MY STOMACH.

LIKE YOUR MOTHER USED TO GET.

SHE GOT
THIS FEELING ONCE--

STOPPED MY DAD FROM GOING
ON A BUSINESS TRIP.

THE PLANE HE WAS SUPPOSED...

...TO BE ON ENDED UP LANDING
ON ITS BELLY

ON A RUNWAY FULL OF FOAM.
I KNOW THE STORY.

LISTEN,
KANSAS HAS TORNADOES.

LOS ANGELES
HAS EARTHQUAKES.

IT DOESN'T MATTER
WHERE WE GO, THERE'S ALWAYS
GOING TO BE SOMETHING.

WE ARE MORTGAGED
TO THE EYEBALLS.

EVEN IF WE WANTED TO SELL

WE'D HAVE TO DISCLOSE
ABOUT THE BEES.

WHO'S GOING TO BUY?

I DON'T KNOW.

MAYBE WE SHOULD GO TO A HOTEL

OUT OF THE VALLEY
UNTIL THEY FIND THE MAIN COLONY.

PRIMARY COLONY.

PRIMARY COLONY.

( horn honks )

I GUESS YOU'RE
NOT GOING TO BELIEVE
WE'VE BEEN PLANNING

THIS VACATION
FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS.

WE'RE GOING TO GO STAY
WITH MY MOTHER IN MARIN.

WHAT ABOUT YOUR PLACE?

I GOT SEVERAL
AFRICANIZED QUEENS IN MY HIVES.

THAT'S WHY THEY ATTACKED.

UNTIL THE
AUTHORITIES FIND

THE COLONY, THERE'S
NOTHING I CAN DO.

I'LL COME BACK
IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS.
SEE WHERE IT STANDS.

YOU'D CONSIDER
LEAVING YOUR PROPERTY?

( engine starts )

THOSE DAMN BEES ARE
SCREWING UP EVERYBODY.

IN LIGHT OF THE FACT
THAT THE BEE EXPERT

IS TAKING HIS FAMILY
OUT OF HERE TOUT DE SUITE,

YOU MAYBE WANT TO GO INSIDE

AND HAVE THAT LAST
CONVERSATION ALL OVER AGAIN?

OKAY, OKAY.

I'LL PACK LUCY, YOU AND ME.

KEVIN AND TRACY
CAN PACK THEMSELVES.

KEVIN WENT OFF
WITH TOM SOMEWHERE.

I'LL JUST PUT SOME THINGS
IN A BAG FOR HIM.

THE GARAGE SAID YOUR CAR
WILL BE READY BY 5:00.

WE'LL PICK IT UP
AND LEAVE FROM THERE.

JUST ENOUGH FOR ONE WEEK,

TILL THE BEE PEOPLE
GET THINGS UNDER CONTROL.

( horn honks )

IT'S THAT CREW BOSS
JOHN TOLD US ABOUT.

I'M SUPPOSED TO SHOW HIM
THE ORCHARD.

IT'S OKAY.
I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

IF I LET HIM GO NOW,
WE'LL NEVER GET HIM BACK.

I KNOW. THE PIT
OF YOUR STOMACH.

IT'S WORKING
OVERTIME, RIGHT?

DON'T WORRY.

WE'VE GOT UNDER...
JUST UNDER 34 1/2 ACRES.

IT'S NOT A BIG ORCHARD,

BUT WE EXPECT 1200,
1500 CRATES.

MY GOD.

MY GOD, THAT'S LESS THAN
A HALF MILE FROM MY HOME.

QUICK. I'VE GOT TO GET
BACK TO THE HOUSE. QUICK.

WHOA. DUDE, WHAT
THE HELL IS THAT FOR?

MY GRANDFATHER
SNUCK IT TO ME
WHEN I WAS 13.

I GOT TO HIDE IT
SO MY CRAZY OLD MAN
DON'T SELL IT OR SOMETHING.

YOU DIDN'T ANSWER
MY QUESTION.

WHAT THE HELL
IS IT FOR?

PROTECTION, BRO',
JUST PROTECTION.

HE SAID HE HAS NEVER
SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT

IN HIS 30 YEARS
WORKING IN ORCHARDS.

IS IT THE
PRIMARY COLONY?

LOOKED LIKE EVERY BEE
ON THE PLANET.

I'D HATE TO THINK
THERE WAS ANOTHER ONE
MORE PRIMARY.

( buzzing )

TOMMY, NO!

TRAVIS... KRISTYN...
THIS IS FOR YOU.

NO!

NO!

NO!

TOM, COME ON!

WE'VE GOT TO GET
OUT OF HERE NOW!

NO, DON'T PUT ME
ON HOLD AGAIN.

WELL, PULL THE CHIEF
OUT OF HIS MEETING.

YES, I THINK

YOU'LL FIND THIS
VERY IMPORTANT.

( horn honking )

( honking )

( buzzing )

GET INSIDE!

COME ON!

( pattering )

WELL, WHAT IS
EVERYONE'S PROBLEM?

( pattering continues )

MOMMY, WHAT'S THAT SOUND?

OH, MY GOD.

WHAT IS IT?

Kevin:
LOOK AT THEM.

Tracy:
WHAT ARE THEY DOING?

THEY WERE AFTER TOMMY.

IT'S OKAY, BABY.

SHH! EVERYBODY STAY CALM.

JUST STAY CALM.

EVERYTHING'S GOING
TO BE ALL RIGHT.

DAD, THEY'RE GETTING
IN THE HOUSE.

OW!

GIVE ME THE NAPKIN.

Kevin:
RIGHT HERE.

MOM, LOOK.

Chad:
WE GOT TO CHECK THE HOUSE.

MAKE SURE EVERYTHING
IS SEALED TIGHT.

KEVIN, TOM,
GO UPSTAIRS.

TRACY, THE KITCHEN.

WHAT ABOUT THE ONES
THAT JUST GOT IN?

A FEW DISORIENTED BEES
WON'T HURT US.

WE'LL GET THEM
WITH BUG SPRAY.

WE'VE GOT TO KEEP OUT
THE SWARM.

WE GOT TO CALL SOMEBODY.

WHO?

ANYBODY.

COME ON!

Tracy:
MOM?

MOM?

Tracy:
HOW DID THEY
GET IN THERE?

THE VENT.

OKAY, NOW,
COME ON, HELP ME.

COME ON.

HERE. START SPRAYING THEM
WITH THIS.

KEVIN, I DIDN'T MEAN
FOR THIS TO HAPPEN.

JUST KEEP
SEALING STUFF UP, OKAY?

COME ON, TINA-DOLL.
COME ON, TINA-BEAR.

I'LL PROTECT YOU.

MOM?

I JUST DID
YOU AND MOM'S ROOM.
WE ALREADY DID MY ROOM.

GOOD. I DID
THE OTHER SIDE.

LET'S CHECK
ON YOUR MOTHER--

( Lucy shrieks )

LUCY.

( Lucy shrieks )

MOMMY!

OH, NO!

LUCY!

HELP!

I'LL GET HER.

TINA! TINA!

OH!

Karen:
BABY!

OH, LOOK
AT ALL THE STINGS!

MORE THAN FIVE
OR SIX STINGS

ON A CHILD
LUCY'S SIZE...

( gasping )

THE... THE SHOTS,
THE BEE STUFF.

UPSTAIRS.

Chad:
HOLD ON, HONEY.

MOM'S GETTING
YOUR MEDICINE.

COME ON.

( moaning )

HANG IN THERE, SWEET PEA.

HANG IN THERE.

MOVE, MOVE,
MOVE, MOVE.

( wheezing )

( wheezing continues )

COME ON.

( wheezing subsides )

( both sighing )

NO. JUST LET HER REST.

WHO'S COMING?

- NO ONE.
- WHAT?!

THE PHONE'S DEAD.

GREAT. IF THEY'RE
COVERING THE HOUSE

THEY COULD HAVE GOTTEN
IN THE EQUIPMENT

AND GUMMED IT UP.

CAN THEY BE COVERING
THE WHOLE HOUSE?

THEY'RE DOING THAT.

OH, MY GOD.
YOU'VE BEEN STUNG TOO?

THIS IS REALLY
TOTALLY NUTS.

LISTEN, THEY'RE
NOT MAN-EATERS.

THEY'RE JUST BEES.

SOMETHING DISTURBED
THEM, THAT'S ALL.

PRETTY SOON
THEY'LL GET BORED

AND THEY'LL GO AWAY.

CAN YOU GET THEM
TO PUT THAT IN WRITING?

( Lucy wheezing )

- OH, GOD.
- STAY HERE.

WHY? WHERE ARE YOU...?

Tracy:
YOU KNOW WHAT THEY DID
TO MY SISTER?!

YOU SHOT AT THEIR HIVES,
YOU IDIOT!

ARE YOU TOTALLY BRAIN-DEAD?!

DID YOU SEE WHAT THEY DID
TO MY SISTER IN THERE?!

SHH! SHE SEEMS
TO BE FINE NOW.

THEY'RE GOING TO GO AWAY,
AREN'T THEY, DADDY?

SURE THEY ARE, HONEY,

BUT WE'RE NOT WAITING
AROUND FOR THAT.

IT'S HARD TO TELL.

Chad:
THEY MAY BE JUST
CLINGING TO THE WALLS.

IF WE CAN JUST GET
PAST THE HOUSE,

MAYBE WE CAN SLIP INTO MY JEEP.

DAD...

I'M JUST GOING TO SEE
HOW BAD IT REALLY IS.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK,
THEN WE CAN ALL GO.

( gasps )

OH.

CHAD!

CHAD!

( wheezing )

WE ONLY HAD TWO SHOTS.

THAT WAS THE LAST ONE.

( wheezing )

IF SHE NEEDS MORE, I...

I'VE GOT TO GET HER
TO A DOCTOR.

DAD, COME ON. HOW?

YOU CAN'T GO OUTSIDE.

( sighing )

I'M GOING TO HAVE TO.

( wheezing )

JUST HANG IN THERE, PUMPKIN.

MOMMY AND DADDY ARE GOING
TO MAKE IT BETTER.

I'LL GET HER
TO THE HOSPITAL,

AND THEN GO TO
THE FIRE DEPARTMENT

AND COME BACK
FOR THE REST OF YOU.

- MORE SOCKS.
- GREAT.

RUBBER BOOTS,
WORK GLOVES
AND DUCT TAPE.

WHAT PAIR
DO YOU WANT?

Chad:
UH, UH...

THE LEATHER ONES.

I HAVE TO MOVE
MY FINGERS.

YOU NEED SOMETHING
TO COVER YOUR FACE.

CHEESECLOTH.
UTILITY DRAWER.

THESE ARE WAY TOO THIN.

MY PARKA WITH THE HOOD.

IN THE ATTIC WITH
OUR WINTER CLOTHES.

RIGHT.

( gasping and coughing )

OH, GOD.

OH, GOD.

( gasping )

( gasping )

OH MY GOD.

SHE'LL NEVER MAKE IT
TO THE HOSPITAL.

SHE NEEDS A SHOT NOW.

THE SHACK
IN THE ORCHARD--

I PUT SOME KITS OUT THERE
FOR THE GUYS.

I CAN BE BACK IN LESS
THAN TWO MINUTES.

DAD? DAD?

THEY'RE IN THE ATTIC.

WHAT?

SEAL IT OFF.

THEY'RE EVERYWHERE.

ANY WAY YOU CAN,
SEAL IT OFF.

TRACY, THE CHEESECLOTH.

TOM.

COME HERE.

WHAT?

THE BEES ARE
IN THE ATTIC.

IF THE BEES ARE
IN THE ATTIC,

THEY CAN GET DOWN
INTO THE WALLS,

AND ONCE THEY'RE
IN THE WALLS

THAT MEANS THEY'RE IN
THE HOUSE-- ALL OF IT,

AND WE'VE GOT
TO STOP THEM NOW.

WELL, WHAT ABOUT
YOUR FOLKS, MAN?

I MEAN,
SHOULDN'T THEY KNOW?

THEY'RE A LITTLE
BIT BUSY RIGHT NOW.

COME ON.

( wheezing )

OKAY. OKAY,
THAT'S FINE.

NOW STAY BACK
FROM THE DOOR, OKAY?

CHAD!

WHAT?

YOUR CAR KEYS.

( gasping )

IT'S THE ADAPTOR I USED
TO FILL MY WATERBED.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO
WITH ALL THIS STUFF?

JUST DO IT,
OKAY?

WHAT'S HE DOING, HONEY?

HE MADE IT.

HE'S IN THE JEEP.

( starter motor cranking )

COME ON!

( starter cranking )

OH, MY GOD.

IT WON'T START.

COME ON!

- YOU READY?
- YEAH.

WHATEVER YOU DO,
JUST KEEP FEEDING
ME THE HOSE.

I GOT YOU.

ALL RIGHT.

( alarm beeping )

COME ON!

COME ON!

( beeping )

TOM, GIVE ME SOME MORE HOSE!

MORE HOSE!

TOM, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

I NEED MORE HOSE!

YEAH!

( engine revving )

IT STARTED.

TOM, WHAT IS THE
MATTER WITH YOU?

COME ON!

KEVIN?

KEVIN?

KEEP AN EYE ON HER.

I HAVE TO FIND OUT
WHAT THAT WAS.

MOM? I THINK SHE STOPPED
BREATHING COMPLETELY.

LUCY..?

LUCY.

OPEN THE DOOR!

SOMEBODY LET ME OUT!

( pounding )

SOMEBODY!

HELP ME!

MAKE HER
BREATHE, MOM!

COME ON!

PLEASE!

GOD, MOM...
SHE'S NOT BREATHING.

SHE'S STILL NOT BREATHING.

YOUR FATHER'S COMING.

HE'S COMING.

OH, GOD...

THEY'RE GETTING IN.

THEY'RE COMING THROUGH THE VENT.

THEY'RE INSIDE THE HOUSE!

FIND SOMETHING AND BLOCK THEM.

TRACY!

( horn honking )

HE'S HERE!

HE'S HERE!

CHAD, HURRY!

COME ON.

DO IT. DO IT!

COME ON, BABY.

GIVE HER THE OTHER ONE.

Chad:
COME ON, SWEET PEA.

LUCY, LISTEN TO MOMMY.

YOU'VE GOT TO BREATHE
FOR US, BABY.

WE'VE DONE ALL WE CAN.

IT'S UP TO YOU NOW, BABY.

IF YOU WANT
TO KNOW

ALL OF LIFE...

GROWING UP...

LOVE,

A BEAUTIFUL
LITTLE GIRL

THEN YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE TO BREATHE, BABY.

BREATHE.

( gasping )

OH! OH! OH!

( sobbing )

THEY'RE INSIDE THE HOUSE.

WHERE ARE THE BOYS?

WHERE'S KEVIN?

I DON'T KNOW.

I GUESS UPSTAIRS.

( sighs )

HIYA, SWEET PEA.

HOW YOU DOING?

MY ARM ITCHES.

OH.

WE'RE GOING TO FIX THAT
REAL SOON, OKAY?

OKAY.

WE'VE GOT TO GET EVERYBODY
DOWN INTO THE CELLAR.

KEVIN!

TOM!

( distant sobbing )

Chad:
WHERE ARE YOU?

TOM... WHERE'S KEVIN?

TOM?!

HE WAS...

UP IN THE ATTIC...

THEN THERE WERE...

MILLIONS OF... BEES THERE.

THERE WAS
LOTS OF THEM.

AND, MR. INGRAM, I...

I HEARD A... A CRASH

SO I...

I'M SORRY.

MR. INGRAM, I DON'T WANT
ANY OF US TO DIE.

TOM...

NONE OF US IS GOING TO DIE.

HERE.

HERE.

EVERYONE IS DOWN
IN THE CELLAR.

GO ON DOWN THERE.

I'LL GET KEVIN
AND FOLLOW YOU.

GO ON DOWN THERE.

KEVIN?!

KEVIN?!

KEVIN!

KEVIN!

KEVIN!

( coughing )

I WAS IN THE ATTIC.

I KNOW.

COME ON, LET'S GO.

COME ON! GO! GO! GO!

NOT TOO MUCH
TOO FAST, HONEY.

WHERE THE HELL
DID YOU DISAPPEAR TO?!

HOW YOU DOING, DARLING?

I'M OKAY, DADDY.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

I'M FINE.

JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE.

OH, GOD, CHAD.

HOW MANY TIMES
HAVE YOU BEEN STUNG?

THERE MUST BE 60 STINGS.

( Lucy screaming )

Tracy:
OH, MY GOD. DAD!

Kevin:
IF THEY'RE COMING IN

THROUGH THERE, THEY'RE
IN THE KITCHEN NOW.

THEY'RE INSIDE
THE WHOLE HOUSE.

THE KITCHEN IS
OUR ONLY WAY OUT OF HERE.

THERE AREN'T ANY OTHER DOORS.

WE'VE GOT TO KEEP THEM OUT.

Karen:
THE WINE ALCOVE.

JOHN TOLD US THAT
THE TUNNEL BEHIND IT--

IT LEADS TO THE BARN.

DO YOU THINK
IT CAN WORK?

SMOKE PACIFIES THEM.

A MATCH.

I NEED A MATCH.

MR. INGRAM.

YOU SMOKE?

( coughing )

IT'S TOO HEAVY.

THE SMOKE'S TOO HEAVY.

WE'LL ALL SUFFOCATE.

EVERYBODY GET IN THE TUNNEL.

( crackling )

MOM, WHY ARE THE LIGHTS
FLICKERING LIKE THAT?

IT'S LIKE WITH THE PHONE.

THEY MUST BE
AFFECTING THE WIRING.

OKAY. OKAY.

OKAY.

OKAY.

I'LL BE RIGHT
BEHIND YOU.

IT'S OKAY.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
COME ON. WE'VE GOT TO GO.

I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

I'VE GOT TO KEEP THOSE
THINGS OFF YOU GUYS.

OKAY. OKAY, I'LL
STAY HERE AND HELP YOU.

Chad:
YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH
ENOUGH ALREADY.

LET ME HELP.

OKAY, TOM.

LET'S DO IT.

MOM, ARE WE SURE

THIS LEADS
TO THE BARN?

YES. WE ARE.

WE JUST HAVE
TO KEEP MOVING.

( coughing )

WHERE'S YOUR FATHER?

HE STAYED BEHIND.

HE AND TOM ARE
GOING TO TRY

TO KEEP THEM
OFF OF US.

KEEP MOVING.
JUST KEEP MOVING.

OKAY.

OKAY, TOM.

THROUGH THE...
THROUGH THE TUNNEL.

GET IN THE BARN
WITH EVERYBODY ELSE.

( panting )

( gasping )

TOM, I TOLD YOU
TO GET IN THE TUNNEL.

MR. INGRAM, I
CAUSED ALL THIS.

I SHOT UP THEIR HIVES

AND I SHOULD BE THE ONE
WHO GOES UPSTAIRS.

IF I KNEW YOU SMOKED

I WOULDN'T LET KEVIN
HANG OUT WITH YOU.

GO ON, NOW.

THANKS.

GO ON.

GET IN THE TUNNEL.

( wheezing )

( coughing )

OW!

( grunts )

MOM, HOW MUCH
FURTHER IS IT?

I DON'T KNOW, SWEETHEART.

WE JUST GOT TO KEEP MOVING.

( gasping and coughing )

MOMMY, I DON'T WANT
TO BE STUNG ANYMORE.

I KNOW, BABY, I KNOW.

( gasps )

WHERE THE HELL
IS MY DAD?

HE'S... HE'S STILL BACK THERE.

( gasping )

LET'S JUST KEEP GOING,
EVERYBODY.

COME ON, BABY.

( grunts )

THEY'RE COMING IN HERE.

OPEN IT!

OPEN IT!

YEAH, MOM!

( gasping and groaning )

( yelling )

WE'VE GOT TO GO BACK.

WE CAN'T!

Lucy:
MOMMY!

STAY AWAY FROM MY LITTLE GIRL!

STAY AWAY!

COME HERE, BABY.

Tracy:
WHAT ARE WE GOING
TO DO NOW?

HOLD STILL, HONEY,
STAY REAL STILL.

( crashing )

( screaming )

Chad:
HOLD ON!

HOLD ON!
I'M COMING!

I'M COMING.

WE NEED TO BLOCK THIS.

ARE WE SAFE
IN HERE, DADDY?

YEAH.
WE'RE SAFE NOW.

NOW WE'RE SAFE.

THE SMOKE IS WORKING.

IT'S WORKING.

THANKS, DADDY.
