and I'm going to wake up soon.
Wake up, Jake.
Wake up.
Wake up, wake up, wake up!
- You are awake.
Sorry, but you're awake.
Trust me.
Otherwise, you'd be like them.

I don't think \'ll

Like being stuck in
fucking outer space.
- Now you're just stalling.
Come on, this was your idea.
Now you've got to pay the price.
Don't be a pussy.
- It's just that I don't
really like needles.
You know thai, come on, don't.
Oh, fuck!
You said you'd count to three!
- I would have done that,
you, fuck!
- See, it hurts, doesn't it,

both just wasting time.
Let's go, g0, 90v

♪ ?
- Few things are worth being
stabbed in the heart for, Sam.
This was one of them.
The other was Randy Conroy
in the eighth grade.
She liked to stab in the back.
Bitch.
I'm sure
she had her reasons.
Lily, what are
you doing in the hot tub'?
- What'!
We can't relax too'?
- Get out!
- What are you yelling for'?
You guys are in the pool.
- Your body temperature's
gonna raise
and when it drops back down,
it won'! be good.
It'll be bad.
Understand?
Get out.
Get out!
- Come on, guys,
we're getting out too.
- Fine.
- What was that about not
raising your body temperature?
- They were naked.
- Yeah, you noticed
that too, huh?
Come on' let's go, I can already
feel the crash coming on.
Helm?
Earth to pervy 13-year-old.
- Every 13-year-old is pervy.
It's kind of our thing.
Ah.
- Ah.
Oh.
So, uh, you like Rachel?
- Eh.
She's the best of the, uh,
non-dead girls we know, I guess.
- Cool, uh,
don't have sex with her.
- Are you calling dibs'?
- Orgasms release melatonin.
It's a hormone, and a sedative.
Where do you come
up with all this shit?
- I'm a pervy
13-year-old with ADHD
and internet.
- Well, you don't have to worry.
I happen to hold
the world record
for falling asleep after
sex so you can relax.
- Just looking out for you.
- It goes both ways.
Don'! go jerking off in a corner
and getting yourself killed.
- I was always worried about
the dangers of masturbation.
- You and me both, kid.
Hey, Jake?
. Yeah?
- You think I'll ever live
long enough to have sex'?
- That is the best life goal
thai I have ever heard
And lam going to ensure
that you see it through.
Or die trying.
- So, uh, what about you'?
- Like I said, I've already
had plenty of bad sex.
- No.
Why are you still awake?
- I don't know.
Just seems better
than the alternative.
Sam, I'm not sure
I ever told you,
but I'm glad you
came into my life,
you and your friend, Ritalin.
To think I wasted aH
those years on crystal
when this shit was legal.
Now, who's hungry?
I wonder how many people
are left in China.
- More than here.
They were awake when
it started, right?
3:00 a.m. here is, what, five
or six in the evening there?
We didn't even have a chance.
Here they just wiped us out,
like fucking ninjas.
- Not all of us.
You know, you still
haven't told me
how you actually survived it.
- You know who had
it really good?
Europe.
It was morning there.
You'd be coming off
a full night's s\eep,
nice, nice head start.
- Except those lazy bastards
who hit the snooze button.
No, it is, it is,
it is weird, and I know.
- Are they fighting?
- No, it's Lily again.
- Okay?
What'!
It's very weird.
No, you should know that.
No!
N0, H0, no!
What' what do you want me to do?
And the fucking, goddamn
filth is driving me nuts.
Just stop.
- I'll take care of her.
Hey' hey.
- I'm gonna go take a leak.
I peed in the pool.
It's probably half piss
by new, to be honest.
- I pissed in too.
I just wish I didn't
feel like being stabbed
in the bladder every
time I take a piss.
These diuretics
are killing me.
- You don'! even know
what that word means.
- It means things
that make you piss,
piss like a diabetic camel.
- I used to have this girl down
in Panama City
when I was younger.
This guy is still at it.
They
call it siesta, siesta.
- Well, We got a new theory.
. Yeah?
Shoot.
- Radioactive space probe.
Passes by before anyone sees it,
affects the atmosphere
of the entire planet,
we breathe it in, poof.
Simultaneous altered
brain states.
- That is the plot of
Night of the Living Dead.
It's also incredibly dumb,
especially for someone who
uses words like diuretics.
- It's a good movie.
- It's a classic.
Look' who gives a
shit what this is?
It just is.
We've just got to survive it.
That's what we've got to do.
- We become sharks.
- What'!
Sharks.
They don't weep' you know.
- Yeah, exactly.
We're an adaptable species.
We survived the comet
that killed the dinosaur,
the fucking dinosaurs,
T-Rex's brother, whoever.
Think on that.
- That's not entirely true,
but I kind of see your point.
Sex kills and the seas
are full of sharks.
This world fucking sucks.
- Not if you're a shark.
- To becoming sharks, then.
- To becoming sharks.
Probably should have
washed our hands
before we did all that.
No, oh, my God, no!
She's at it again.
- No, that was Rachel.
Rachel?
" No!
No, this cannot.
What, what happened'?
- We were playing
games and I left.
She iust, she's just.
Wake up.
Wake up.
- Jake, get the adrenalin.
I'm so sorry,
I'm so sorry.
Come on, Lily,
come on, come on.
Come on, Lily.
Come on, Jake!
I'm sorry.
- I don't wanna die,
ldon'twanna die.
I don't wanna die,
I don't wanna die.
What's happening
to my fucking fife?
First it was 15 and
then 11 and then seven
and then four, now three.
- Rachel, you need to calm down.
- Stop giving orders
like you know shit!
You're just a fucking kid
and now Lily's fucking dead!
What, how much time was left?
How much time was left'?
. UN -
- How much goddamn
time was left?
Great.
The drugs aren't
even working anymore.
First it was sugar
and then caffeine
and then cigarettes and
now the hard fucking drugs
aren't even fucking working.
- We don't know that, Rachel.
- Yes, we do.
Tell me you can't feel it.
Tell me it's not getting worse.
We've just got to up the dose.
We've got to get more
and we cannot run out.
She sat behind me
in ninth grade.
Can you guys just.
Yeah.
- Please'?
- Yeah, we'll take care of it.
Just, it'll take a minute or.
Yeah, thanks.
This is a waste of time.
- Well, what else are
we doing right now?
Should we say something?
Right hand, red.
- Maybe a moment of
silence would be best.
Well, on the bright side,
we don't have to worry
about having sex anymore.
- Says who?
Come on' I'm just
fucking with you, man.
- The backpack, it's gone!
- You fucking bitch,
that was all we had left!
- Come on, Jake, we're
never gonna catch her!
We've gotta go to a pharmacy.
- Before the house we
were in a fucking car.
What were we doing?
- Who gives a shit?
I can barely
remember an hour ago.
- An hour ago you
were starting at tits!
Fucking think!
- AH right, all right.
Um' before the
house there was, uh,
uh, fireworks, before the
house fireworks on Glen Peak.
- I was driving.
- Yeah, I think you were.
- Hold on.
- You want to tell me where
we're going?
- A man's got to know his
limitaiions
You know who said that'?
Dirty fuckin' Harry.
- What does that even mean'?
- I never fill the
gas tank and I sure
as fuck didn't fill
it before Glen Peak.
So the only working
gas station in town.
Ha ha ha, bitch!
- I'm not gonna question it,
but you need to go faster.
Oh, man, no, stay awake,
Jake, come on.
Come on, stay awake!
Stay awake!
- Stay awake, Jake.
- Come on' come on!
Come on, Jake, stay awake!
- Man, you've got
to stop yelling.
That hurts my ears
and my feelings.
- Shit.
- Yo, what time?
- All right, okay.
AH right.
Come on, Jake, hurry.
Okay, okay, you got
this, you got this.
Cars are simple,
just like for-za.
Don't be a pussy.
Fuck.
Shit!
Oh, no, no.
Come on' Jake, come on.
Tell me you've got a stash.
Come on, Jake!
Come on, come on.
No, stay UP!
Come on, Jake.
Tell me you got something.
Something!
Sorry about this, Jake.
Three!
Fuck!
- Now stay the fuck awake.
- You couldn't tell
me to stay away.
You can't even stay
away from me, Meg.
- I'm not your sister.
- What a mean thing to say.
Hey, Meg.
- Still not Meg.
- Well, whoever
the fuck you are,
there's something
falling from the sky.
If it's a dinosaur comet, you
should really be iust fine.
Oh, the dinosaur comet kind
of looks like an airplane.
- I'm trying to focus here so
if you could shut the heH up
that would be great.
. Okay"
- We'll try to ram
her off the road.
Jake!
- Was ljust haHucinating
a second ago?
- Yeah.
- Am I hallucinating now'?
- I don't know.
- Did you just stab
me with a screwdriver
before a plane hit our car'?
- Yeah, I think that
part was real, yeah.
. Okay"
Ow!
Helm'?
Are you all right'?
- Son oi a Mich.
Well, congratulations,
you grounded her.
- I'm fairly certain we
had the right of way.
- Oh, that's real funny.
Thafs topnotch.
- Look, we're sorry.
We're both crashing pretty hard
so if you have any
spare drugs or anything,
thafd be great, you know,
just short-term.
- I've been to eight cities
in three days.
I haven't seen anyone
your age since the first.
I guess that's worth something.
It's not gonna buy
you much time, kid.
- It'll buy us enough,
thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
- Thanks for the patches.
You just saved our lives.
- Well, you probably just
doomed everyone else's.
- That's a bit dramatic.
So, uh, listen.
I don't suppose you, uh,
I don't suppose you
saw any pharmacies
while you were up there, huh?
- What'!
- Come on, we're good guys.
We just, somebody
stole our drugs.
Looks like
your car still works.
Yeah, seems that way.
- There's a hospital
on this map,
but there's not a hospital
where the map says.
- Makes sense.
- How you figure?
- You see, this used
to be Si. Sebastian's
but it closed like a year ago.
I mean ii was replaced by the
medical center near downtown.
- You can get us there?
- Oh, yeah, I've definitely
been dumped there
many times in my day.
Hey!
If we take you there, you have
to help us find a pharmacy'
That's the deal.
- It won't be necessary.
- And why the heH not?
- Because hospitals
have pharmacies.
- Dumb ass.
- Is that your dad?
- Are you serious?
- You sure you should
be with him' kid?
I think he's an addict-.
- Look, I'm pretty sure
we're all addicts now.
My name's Sam, by the way.
- Ellis.
Captain on occasion.
- I think it's more of
the occasion for Ellis.
- You're right.
- Hey, you said there
weren't any other kids
in any other cities.
- Not since Newark, no.
That doesn't mean
they're not out ihere.
It just means I
haven'! seen them.
I've seen plenty
of people, though.
They're still kicking.
- Holy shit, I think ljusi
pissed out my entire liver.
I can't wait to do it
again in five minutes.
Whew.
- You should see the
back of my plane.
Musl have filled four milk
jugs on the flight over.
Let me tell you, some
scavenger will get
a real rude awakening if
he's thirsting for lemonade.
- Is ironic the word'?
- Word for what'?
- Like the fact that mankind is
literally pissing
away his last days.
- That would be the word.
But we don't have
to piss it away.
Somewhere out there,
there's an answer for this.
We just have to find it.
- While continuing
to piss all the time'?
It's not mutually exclusive.
- Pissing is somewhat
unavoidable in the short term.
You guys go find your pharmacy.
L'H be in the ICU
if it strikes you.
- Long day-
- Yeah, it's just
getting started.
♪ ?
- Yeah.
- Good morning.
- Yeah, some assholes already
raided the pharmacy.
- I'm your asshole.
- I'm sorry, what?
- I am the asshole that
raided the pharmacy.
Singular.
- I'm also a single asshole.
- Uh, I'm Ally.
You want me to take
a wok at that?
- Uh, sure, that
would be great, doc.
And any, uh, pick-me-ups
would be greatly appreciated.
- We've got just the thing.
Come on.
Follow me.
It's adrenalin.
Well, saline too, and
a bunch of other stuff
we probably shouldn't mix
but more bang for your buck
than anything you can
inject or snort.
Don't touch it.
38 times the legal dose.
Anything more and your heart
is gonna pop like a balloon.
- Noted, thanks.
Hey, how's yours
holding up over there?
He's your son?
- Don't know.
I was too cheap to
get the test results.
Kidding.
No.
What are you to me, Sam?
- Uh, indispensable.
- There it is.
Look, I know this is
probably a dumb question
but you're not actually an
operating hospital, right?
I mean, not anymore?
- No.
Now what you see is what remains
of the last night shift
ever to work here.
Well, those of us who
decided to stay, at least.
Now I thought we could
just put our heads together
and try and figure
this thing out.
- What have you got so far?
- Jack and, uh, shit.
But we're alive, right?
All right, let's get
you back to your friend.
- You made it.
- Okay, here's the rest.
Hi, I'm Sarah.
You guys mind telling me what
you're up to with all of this?
- Hi, Jake, good question.
What are we up to
with aH of this?
- These four are
missing times of death.
- ALLY' They're the
same as all the rest.
- You sure'?
Down to the minute'?
- Yes, I'm sure.
I wrote them.
And past a certain point,
it really wasn't
worth writing anymore.
- So Christopher Manning,
Alicia Townsend, Matthew Olmert.
- And Rich.
- Thank you.
- Thank you for reading
their names aloud.
I was really hoping
to see the faces
of my dead patients again.
. Okay"
Look.
I was piloting the red eye
from LA to Newark.
Big sleep hii somewhere.
Somewhere over Colorado.
I can't be exactly sure where,
but Boulder maybe.
We had a doctor in
first class, good man.
Tried his best.
But he couldn't save them,
as you know.
Couldn't save my copilot either.
We make an emergency
landing in Denver,
along with a few others.
Onboard doctor records
time of death, as they do.
Instantaneous, he says, 3:04
a.m., adjusted for time zone.
Now Denver's a shit
storm, hospitals overrun,
networks shutdown,
mass hysteria.
So we decided to
press onto Newark.
And when we get home,
so do my passengers.
But Newark's not any better.
But it's good enough
that I can get a coroner
to take a look at the bodies.
So I hand them over, sign a
few forms and I'm on my way.
Social media, 24-hour news,
they're sounding the alarm.
Only good thing come out
of that, if you ask me.
And they're all talking about
people dying in their beds.
And what time do they
say it all started?
- 3:00 a.m. or around
3:00 a.m. at least.
- Same here.
- See,
and in that one little word
they missed everything...
because it wasn't around
something or about someihing.
It was exactly 3:04.
But it wasn't that either,
because I remember the time
that the coroner reported
for the victims in Newark.
And what time was that'?
3206.
- So people died at
slightly different times.
So what'?
- So I decided to fly back
towards Denver'
short flights, just
to test the theory,
land, check the times of
death in the hospital.
And in every city it's just
the slightest difference,
just a small little
dip in the time'
D.C., 3:05.
Nashville, 3:04.
3203.
3:02.
Now here, 3:01.
So somewhere in-between
here and Denver.
- Is the point of origin.
- Exactly.
The earliest time that
we can come up with
is in-between here and Denver.
So this death pulse,
or whatever it is,
is leading me right to it.
- Okay, but what is it?
I mean, what exactly
are you expecting
to find between here and Denver'?
Sleep became lethal
at a global scale
in a matter of seconds.
And nobody, not
doctors, not scientists,
not anyone has a
fucking due why.
What' what do you
think' uh, it's' uh,
some kind of glitch in our
evolutionary trajectory?
Biological terrorism?
Alien warfare?
Hell, I wouldn't be
surprised if we arrived
at your point of origin
and we found the foot
of God just stomping
out his creation,
because that is the
only explanation left.
- I don't have an answer,
but I do have a direction.
And that direction is west.
Anyway, I've wasted
enough time here.
I'm on the road.
- Wait.
We wanna come with you.
Look, I've traveled alt
throughout the southwest,
Texas, Oklahoma, you name it.
Loan get you around.
- Both of you?
- Yep, always.
We come in pairs.
Safer that way.
- Fine.
- All right.
- Okay, I'm gonna
go grab supplies
and tell Jeanette we're leaving.
- Yeah, hey, don't
tell her why, okay.
We'l\ radio them if
we find anything.
- Hurry UP-
We still have to get
actual transportation.
The plane is busted.
- Hey, wait.
- Speak of the devil.
- We're going.
- No, we're fucking not.
- Jake, shut up.
We're going.
- What is the fucking point?
We almost died today.
No, we've got to be safer,
smarter' all right.
We iust need to adapt.
Just a couple more days.
Like sharks, remember?
Our bodies will
sort out the rest.
- In a few days, your
body is going to die.
- How the shit do you know?
- Medical school.
Look, the body cannot
survive without sleep.
Right now, you have
an expiration date.
We all have an expiration
date' 10, 11 days max.
After that, you can pop
every pill on the planet
but your body is
going to shut down.
- You don't know that.
- Yes, I do.
- Come on, Jake.
A man's got to know
his limitations.
Do you know who said that?
- Of course I do.
' Who?
- Dirty Harry.
- Dirty fucking Harry.
- Yeah, okay.
- All right.
- All I know is sumeonsfs
gotta do something
or else this blueberry
muffin is gonna ouflast
the entire human race.
- We're not gonna
let that happen.
Hey, Jake.
Yeah.
I'm scared again.
- That's just 'cause
you're starting
to think you might actually
live through this.
But I'm scared too.
So much for becoming
sharks, right?
- It's fine.
I think I'd like to go back
to being a person anyway.
- Yep, me too.
All right, you little bastard.
Let's go find an answer.

She's the best of the, uh,
non-dead girls we know, I guess.
- Cool, uh,
don't have sex with her.
- Are you calling dibs'?
- Orgasms release melatonin.
It's a hormone, and a sedative.
Where do you come
up with all this shit?
- I'm a pervy
13-year-old with ADHD
and internet.
- Well, you don't have to worry.
I happen to hold
the world record
for falling asleep after
sex so you can relax.
- Just looking out for you.
- It goes both ways.
Don'! go jerking off in a corner
and getting yourself killed.
- I was always worried about
the dangers of masturbation.
- You and me both, kid.
Hey, Jake?
. Yeah?
- You think I'll ever live
long enough to have sex'?
- That is the best life goal
thai I have ever heard
And lam going to ensure
that you see it through.
Or die trying.
- So, uh, what about you'?
- Like I said, I've already
had plenty of bad sex.
- No.
Why are you still awake?
- I don't know.
Just seems better
than the alternative.
Sam, I'm not sure
I ever told you,
but I'm glad you
came into my life,
you and your friend, Ritalin.
To think I wasted aH
those years on crystal
when this shit was legal.
Now, who's hungry?
I wonder how many people
are left in China.
- More than here.
They were awake when
it started, right?
3:00 a.m. here is, what, five
or six in the evening there?
We didn't even have a chance.
Here they just wiped us out,
like fucking ninjas.
- Not all of us.
You know, you still
haven't told me
how you actually survived it.
- You know who had
it really good?
Europe.
It was morning there.
You'd be coming off
a full night's s\eep,
nice, nice head start.
- Except those lazy bastards
who hit the snooze button.
No, it is, it is,
it is weird, and I know.
- Are they fighting?
- No, it's Lily again.
- Okay?
What'!
It's very weird.
No, you should know that.
No!
N0, H0, no!
What' what do you want me to do?
And the fucking, goddamn
filth is driving me nuts.
Just stop.
- I'll take care of her.
Hey' hey.
- I'm gonna go take a leak.
I peed in the pool.
It's probably half piss
by new, to be honest.
- I pissed in too.
I just wish I didn't
feel like being stabbed
in the bladder every
time I take a piss.
These diuretics
are killing me.
- You don'! even know
what that word means.
- It means things
that make you piss,
piss like a diabetic camel.
- I used to have this girl down
in Panama City
when I was younger.
This guy is still at it.
They
call it siesta, siesta.
- Well, We got a new theory.
. Yeah?
Shoot.
- Radioactive space probe.
Passes by before anyone sees it,
affects the atmosphere
of the entire planet,
we breathe it in, poof.
Simultaneous altered
brain states.
- That is the plot of
Night of the Living Dead.
It's also incredibly dumb,
especially for someone who
uses words like diuretics.
- It's a good movie.
- It's a classic.
Look' who gives a
shit what this is?
It just is.
We've just got to survive it.
That's what we've got to do.
- We become sharks.
- What'!
Sharks.
They don't weep' you know.
- Yeah, exactly.
We're an adaptable species.
We survived the comet
that killed the dinosaur,
the fucking dinosaurs,
T-Rex's brother, whoever.
Think on that.
- That's not entirely true,
but I kind of see your point.
Sex kills and the seas
are full of sharks.
This world fucking sucks.
- Not if you're a shark.
- To becoming sharks, then.
- To becoming sharks.
Probably should have
washed our hands
before we did all that.
No, oh, my God, no!
She's at it again.
- No, that was Rachel.
Rachel?
" No!
No, this cannot.
What, what happened'?
- We were playing
games and I left.
She iust, she's just.
Wake up.
Wake up.
- Jake, get the adrenalin.
I'm so sorry,
I'm so sorry.
Come on, Lily,
come on, come on.
Come on, Lily.
Come on, Jake!
I'm sorry.
- I don't wanna die,
ldon'twanna die.
I don't wanna die,
I don't wanna die.
What's happening
to my fucking fife?
First it was 15 and
then 11 and then seven
and then four, now three.
- Rachel, you need to calm down.
- Stop giving orders
like you know shit!
You're just a fucking kid
and now Lily's fucking dead!
What, how much time was left?
How much time was left'?
. UN -
- How much goddamn
time was left?
Great.
The drugs aren't
even working anymore.
First it was sugar
and then caffeine
and then cigarettes and
now the hard fucking drugs
aren't even fucking working.
- We don't know that, Rachel.
- Yes, we do.
Tell me you can't feel it.
Tell me it's not getting worse.
We've just got to up the dose.
We've got to get more
and we cannot run out.
She sat behind me
in ninth grade.
Can you guys just.
Yeah.
- Please'?
- Yeah, we'll take care of it.
Just, it'll take a minute or.
Yeah, thanks.
This is a waste of time.
- Well, what else are
we doing right now?
Should we say something?
Right hand, red.
- Maybe a moment of
silence would be best.
Well, on the bright side,
we don't have to worry
about having sex anymore.
- Says who?
Come on' I'm just
fucking with you, man.
- The backpack, it's gone!
- You fucking bitch,
that was all we had left!
- Come on, Jake, we're
never gonna catch her!
We've gotta go to a pharmacy.
- Before the house we
were in a fucking car.
What were we doing?
- Who gives a shit?
I can barely
remember an hour ago.
- An hour ago you
were starting at tits!
Fucking think!
- AH right, all right.
Um' before the
house there was, uh,
uh, fireworks, before the
house fireworks on Glen Peak.
- I was driving.
- Yeah, I think you were.
- Hold on.
- You want to tell me where
we're going?
- A man's got to know his
limitaiions
You know who said that'?
Dirty fuckin' Harry.
- What does that even mean'?
- I never fill the
gas tank and I sure
as fuck didn't fill
it before Glen Peak.
So the only working
gas station in town.
Ha ha ha, bitch!
- I'm not gonna question it,
but you need to go faster.
Oh, man, no, stay awake,
Jake, come on.
Come on, stay awake!
Stay awake!
- Stay awake, Jake.
- Come on' come on!
Come on, Jake, stay awake!
- Man, you've got
to stop yelling.
That hurts my ears
and my feelings.
- Shit.
- Yo, what time?
- All right, okay.
AH right.
Come on, Jake, hurry.
Okay, okay, you got
this, you got this.
Cars are simple,
just like for-za.
Don't be a pussy.
Fuck.
Shit!
Oh, no, no.
Come on' Jake, come on.
Tell me you've got a stash.
Come on, Jake!
Come on, come on.
No, stay UP!
Come on, Jake.
Tell me you got something.
Something!
Sorry about this, Jake.
Three!
Fuck!
- Now stay the fuck awake.
- You couldn't tell
me to stay away.
You can't even stay
away from me, Meg.
- I'm not your sister.
- What a mean thing to say.
Hey, Meg.
- Still not Meg.
- Well, whoever
the fuck you are,
there's something
falling from the sky.
If it's a dinosaur comet, you
should really be iust fine.
Oh, the dinosaur comet kind
of looks like an airplane.
- I'm trying to focus here so
if you could shut the heH up
that would be great.
. Okay"
- We'll try to ram
her off the road.
Jake!
- Was ljust haHucinating
a second ago?
- Yeah.
- Am I hallucinating now'?
- I don't know.
- Did you just stab
me with a screwdriver
before a plane hit our car'?
- Yeah, I think that
part was real, yeah.
. Okay"
Ow!
Helm'?
Are you all right'?
- Son oi a Mich.
Well, congratulations,
you grounded her.
- I'm fairly certain we
had the right of way.
- Oh, that's real funny.
Thafs topnotch.
- Look, we're sorry.
We're both crashing pretty hard
so if you have any
spare drugs or anything,
thafd be great, you know,
just short-term.
- I've been to eight cities
in three days.
I haven't seen anyone
your age since the first.
I guess that's worth something.
It's not gonna buy
you much time, kid.
- It'll buy us enough,
thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
- Thanks for the patches.
You just saved our lives.
- Well, you probably just
doomed everyone else's.
- That's a bit dramatic.
So, uh, listen.
I don't suppose you, uh,
I don't suppose you
saw any pharmacies
while you were up there, huh?
- What'!
- Come on, we're good guys.
We just, somebody
stole our drugs.
Looks like
your car still works.
Yeah, seems that way.
- There's a hospital
on this map,
but there's not a hospital
where the map says.
- Makes sense.
- How you figure?
- You see, this used
to be Si. Sebastian's
but it closed like a year ago.
I mean ii was replaced by the
medical center near downtown.
- You can get us there?
- Oh, yeah, I've definitely
been dumped there
many times in my day.
Hey!
If we take you there, you have
to help us find a pharmacy'
That's the deal.
- It won't be necessary.
- And why the heH not?
- Because hospitals
have pharmacies.
- Dumb ass.
- Is that your dad?
- Are you serious?
- You sure you should
be with him' kid?
I think he's an addict-.
- Look, I'm pretty sure
we're all addicts now.
My name's Sam, by the way.
- Ellis.
Captain on occasion.
- I think it's more of
the occasion for Ellis.
- You're right.
- Hey, you said there
weren't any other kids
in any other cities.
- Not since Newark, no.
That doesn't mean
they're not out ihere.
It just means I
haven'! seen them.
I've seen plenty
of people, though.
They're still kicking.
- Holy shit, I think ljusi
pissed out my entire liver.
I can't wait to do it
again in five minutes.
Whew.
- You should see the
back of my plane.
Musl have filled four milk
jugs on the flight over.
Let me tell you, some
scavenger will get
a real rude awakening if
he's thirsting for lemonade.
- Is ironic the word'?
- Word for what'?
- Like the fact that mankind is
literally pissing
away his last days.
- That would be the word.
But we don't have
to piss it away.
Somewhere out there,
there's an answer for this.
We just have to find it.
- While continuing
to piss all the time'?
It's not mutually exclusive.
- Pissing is somewhat
unavoidable in the short term.
You guys go find your pharmacy.
L'H be in the ICU
if it strikes you.
- Long day-
- Yeah, it's just
getting started.
♪ ?
- Yeah.
- Good morning.
- Yeah, some assholes already
raided the pharmacy.
- I'm your asshole.
- I'm sorry, what?
- I am the asshole that
raided the pharmacy.
Singular.
- I'm also a single asshole.
- Uh, I'm Ally.
You want me to take
a wok at that?
- Uh, sure, that
would be great, doc.
And any, uh, pick-me-ups
would be greatly appreciated.
- We've got just the thing.
Come on.
Follow me.
It's adrenalin.
Well, saline too, and
a bunch of other stuff
we probably shouldn't mix
but more bang for your buck
than anything you can
inject or snort.
Don't touch it.
38 times the legal dose.
Anything more and your heart
is gonna pop like a balloon.
- Noted, thanks.
Hey, how's yours
holding up over there?
He's your son?
- Don't know.
I was too cheap to
get the test results.
Kidding.
No.
What are you to me, Sam?
- Uh, indispensable.
- There it is.
Look, I know this is
probably a dumb question
but you're not actually an
operating hospital, right?
I mean, not anymore?
- No.
Now what you see is what remains
of the last night shift
ever to work here.
Well, those of us who
decided to stay, at least.
Now I thought we could
just put our heads together
and try and figure
this thing out.
- What have you got so far?
- Jack and, uh, shit.
But we're alive, right?
All right, let's get
you back to your friend.
- You made it.
- Okay, here's the rest.
Hi, I'm Sarah.
You guys mind telling me what
you're up to with all of this?
- Hi, Jake, good question.
What are we up to
with aH of this?
- These four are
missing times of death.
- ALLY' They're the
same as all the rest.
- You sure'?
Down to the minute'?
- Yes, I'm sure.
I wrote them.
And past a certain point,
it really wasn't
worth writing anymore.
- So Christopher Manning,
Alicia Townsend, Matthew Olmert.
- And Rich.
- Thank you.
- Thank you for reading
their names aloud.
I was really hoping
to see the faces
of my dead patients again.
. Okay"
Look.
I was piloting the red eye
from LA to Newark.
Big sleep hii somewhere.
Somewhere over Colorado.
I can't be exactly sure where,
but Boulder maybe.
We had a doctor in
first class, good man.
Tried his best.
But he couldn't save them,
as you know.
Couldn't save my copilot either.
We make an emergency
landing in Denver,
along with a few others.
Onboard doctor records
time of death, as they do.
Instantaneous, he says, 3:04
a.m., adjusted for time zone.
Now Denver's a shit
storm, hospitals overrun,
networks shutdown,
mass hysteria.
So we decided to
press onto Newark.
And when we get home,
so do my passengers.
But Newark's not any better.
But it's good enough
that I can get a coroner
to take a look at the bodies.
So I hand them over, sign a
few forms and I'm on my way.
Social media, 24-hour news,
they're sounding the alarm.
Only good thing come out
of that, if you ask me.
And they're all talking about
people dying in their beds.
And what time do they
say it all started?
- 3:00 a.m. or around
3:00 a.m. at least.
- Same here.
- See,
and in that one little word
they missed everything...
because it wasn't around
something or about someihing.
It was exactly 3:04.
But it wasn't that either,
because I remember the time
that the coroner reported
for the victims in Newark.
And what time was that'?
3206.
- So people died at
slightly different times.
So what'?
- So I decided to fly back
towards Denver'
short flights, just
to test the theory,
land, check the times of
death in the hospital.
And in every city it's just
the slightest difference,
just a small little
dip in the time'
D.C., 3:05.
Nashville, 3:04.
3203.
3:02.
Now here, 3:01.
So somewhere in-between
here and Denver.
- Is the point of origin.
- Exactly.
The earliest time that
we can come up with
is in-between here and Denver.
So this death pulse,
or whatever it is,
is leading me right to it.
- Okay, but what is it?
I mean, what exactly
are you expecting
to find between here and Denver'?
Sleep became lethal
at a global scale
in a matter of seconds.
And nobody, not
doctors, not scientists,
not anyone has a
fucking due why.
What' what do you
think' uh, it's' uh,
some kind of glitch in our
evolutionary trajectory?
Biological terrorism?
Alien warfare?
Hell, I wouldn't be
surprised if we arrived
at your point of origin
and we found the foot
of God just stomping
out his creation,
because that is the
only explanation left.
- I don't have an answer,
but I do have a direction.
And that direction is west.
Anyway, I've wasted
enough time here.
I'm on the road.
- Wait.
We wanna come with you.
Look, I've traveled alt
throughout the southwest,
Texas, Oklahoma, you name it.
Loan get you around.
- Both of you?
- Yep, always.
We come in pairs.
Safer that way.
- Fine.
- All right.
- Okay, I'm gonna
go grab supplies
and tell Jeanette we're leaving.
- Yeah, hey, don't
tell her why, okay.
We'l\ radio them if
we find anything.
- Hurry UP-
We still have to get
actual transportation.
The plane is busted.
- Hey, wait.
- Speak of the devil.
- We're going.
- No, we're fucking not.
- Jake, shut up.
We're going.
- What is the fucking point?
We almost died today.
No, we've got to be safer,
smarter' all right.
We iust need to adapt.
Just a couple more days.
Like sharks, remember?
Our bodies will
sort out the rest.
- In a few days, your
body is going to die.
- How the shit do you know?
- Medical school.
Look, the body cannot
survive without sleep.
Right now, you have
an expiration date.
We all have an expiration
date' 10, 11 days max.
After that, you can pop
every pill on the planet
but your body is
going to shut down.
- You don't know that.
- Yes, I do.
- Come on, Jake.
A man's got to know
his limitations.
Do you know who said that?
- Of course I do.
' Who?
- Dirty Harry.
- Dirty fucking Harry.
- Yeah, okay.
- All right.
- All I know is sumeonsfs
gotta do something
or else this blueberry
muffin is gonna ouflast
the entire human race.
- We're not gonna
let that happen.
Hey, Jake.
Yeah.
I'm scared again.
- That's just 'cause
you're starting
to think you might actually
live through this.
But I'm scared too.
So much for becoming
sharks, right?
- It's fine.
I think I'd like to go back
to being a person anyway.
- Yep, me too.
All right, you little bastard.
Let's go find an answer.
