Station Eleven (2021–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - Episode #1.10 - full transcript
What kind of job
do you have?
Uh, logistics.
Oh, what does that mean?
It's...
The path things take
from A to B.
It's always made sense to me.
Tyler would love this.
My son.
With Elizabeth. Yeah.
Send him this one.
I have more.
How does it feel to...
To actually
accomplish something?
It's strange.
I lost everyone that knew me.
I lost you.
I had to finish this first.
That's...
that's the only way
I know how to say it.
I'm just sorry that I...
Was too late.
This is Miranda.
Miranda, it's Clark,
from... from before.
Clark, how are you?
I was gonna ask you
the same thing when we spoke.
I... I fell down some stairs.
Oh. Where are you?
Malaysia.
- Where are you?
- Michigan.
A place known only as
the Severn City Airport.
Let me guess,
flight diverted?
Mm-hmm.
I'm on my way to Chicago
to pick up Arthur's body.
What's your situation?
Um, I'm sealed
in a hotel room alone,
kind of drunk,
whole world's ending,
hoping I live
to see the sunrise.
An old friend just called back.
So there's something
I wanted to say to you, Miranda,
in case we don't survive.
At this time...
Those, um...
first few months you and Arthur
were together
were the happiest time
in my life.
I wish we'd stayed in touch.
Oh, I don't stay in touch.
I know.
And I-I know
you haven't seen Arthur,
but I had dinner with him
about a month ago in Chicago
and we talked about you.
I told him
you weren't an asshole,
you were just an artist.
He called me.
Told me you said some things
that opened his eyes.
Oh.
I woke up the next day
and finished the book,
last two pages.
Had a flight to Chicago.
Found a print shop in
Lincolnwood called Zalinski's.
Printed five.
I wanted to send you one,
but I've got it here.
Well, how'd it go
with Arthur?
He asked me out.
We made a plan.
Just...
our paths crossed
at the wrong time.
Did you know there's only one
real road into your airport?
S... what did you say?
That you're on
a middle-of-nowhere island.
If no one's sick inside,
you still got a shot.
- Yeah, no, sorry.
- Before that.
Our paths crossed
at the wrong time.
Because Elizabeth and Tyler
are here with me.
It's...
I didn't think much of it
on the plane when I saw them,
but now...
Miranda...
You have to help them.
How?
Miranda?
All customer service
counters are closed
at this time.
We'll update you
when we know...
Jim?
How are you?
I'm dying.
And my filling just fell out.
I need help.
Okay.

I'm not letting our people

another night in the dark.
Elizabeth!
Congratulations,
quarantine is over.
Kirsten, Alexandra's told us
so much about you.
It's so good
to finally meet you.
We'd like to go now,
with Sarah.
Your Conductor will recover,
but she can't travel yet.
It takes a day
to get the doctor
and a day to bring him back.
So with the performance
being tomorrow,
you can get her back
after the play.
Sit with me.
I heard about
the Traveling Symphony
in Year Ten.
I was patient.
I suggested it in Year 15.
I knew that Clark would
agree, eventually,
and he did.
I won't let this derail us.
We need to open the doors.
You know, every town we go to
has fought for 20 years
to survive.
Not one of them
has ever locked us up,
held our members hostage.
So I'm sorry about your fire,
but fuck you.
You're not special.
What? What have you lost?
The Museum of Civilization.
Lucky you.
The world is still
full of garbage from Before.
- I've lost more.
- But he came back.
My son died in a fire.
- Ask anyone.
- No.
Your son ran away,
and now, he came back.
No one finds people
from Before.
The flu took everything
from everyone.
So it matters
getting anybody back.
I thought my son...
burned himself alive,
in front of me.
And he did that to me
so that I would have no hope.
I didn't even get
to have the dream.
Who's back?
I have no idea
who my son even is.
He won't even speak to me.
He just... he just stares
back at me like I'm the ghost.
You're Gertrude.
Sorry?
You should play Gertrude.
You played Gertrude
off-Broadway.
I read about it
in "Us Magazine."
I'm not an actor anymore,
I'm directing.
No, I'm the director.
But this is how
you talk to your son.
We do one show,
then we leave.
The entire Symphony.
Look you, sir.
Inquire me first...
- Tuba.
- What Danskers are in Paris.
What are you doing?
You're giving a command
to someone.
I mean, you're delighted
by your fucking schemes.
Are you directing now?
Yes, you're back to Laertes.
- But Elizabeth's directing.
- Elizabeth's Gertrude.
Listen to Kirsten.
Oh, thank fucking Christ.
Clark ran into the fire.
By the time Miles
pulled him out,
both his arms were burned.
I'll leave you here.
I have another matter
to attend to.
They look like fireflies.
It's unusual for us,
so much change.
Hey.
Hey.
What's that?
Who's playing Hamlet?
You?
The Prophet.
When we got separated,
I went to find him.
To kill him, to protect you,
to protect all of us,
and when I found him,
there were
just children everywhere.
And he said
that you were in danger
and he knew how to find you.
- And I didn't.
- I don't care.
I saw you leave with him,
last night.
I want to stay here.
For a year.
- No.
- Why not?
Because we travel
for a reason.
- What is it?
- To come back.
To come back every single year.
Well, what if we didn't?
Alex.
Alex, stop.
You were right
at Pingtree.
I don't need these anymore.
I've had them for too long.
Will you put them
somewhere safe for me?
- Elizabeth.
- Alex?
What are you doing awake?
You should get some sleep.
Kirsten, are you ready?
Yeah.
Just trust me, okay?
Bye.
- Is M.C.
- Miranda Carroll?
Mm-hmm.
I did not realize you were
also a graphic novelist.
I started the day
my family died.
Your whole family died
on the same day?
They did.
There is no rescue.
I'm sorry.
Stay safe.
If you're together with
your family, stay together.
I'm glad they're not here.
Likely there will be a way
for survivors to...
Okay.
FAA just updated.
Your friends landed
a couple hours ago.
And nobody's infected...
Another plane landed
half an hour ago.
Gitchegumee Air, that means
"big sea water" in Ojibwe.
In from...
Chicago.
Have they deplaned yet?
No.
I gotta talk to the pilot.
Why?
He can't
let those people off.
They're clean inside.
They're safe.
How do I... how do I get him?
How do I talk
to the pilot, Jim?
Okay.
You can't get inside
FAA comms, but...
the pilot's name is...
The pilot's name is
Captain Hugo Bennett.
Hugo?
Try his phone.
Credit card, Jim.
Come on.
Here, use the blue one.
Oh, shit.
Oh, 414-175-6283.
Say it with me.
Say it with me, Jim.
Both: 414-175-6283.
414-175-6283.
6283.
414-175-6283.
Looks like Miles
got the lights working.
You guys hiding
someone else back there?
The lights are on.
What's your name?
Sarah.
What are you feeling, Sarah?
I'm ready.
Okay.
It's okay.
You can let go.
We're not alone.
Do you hear that?
Oh.
Rest in peace,
Sarah.
Here.
You guys have
a real prison thing.
He gets out of everything.
He's like Houdini.
Here.
Here, brought you this.
Your mom's playing Gertrude.
Why?
Because you're Hamlet.
Cody was the one who wanted
to be an actor, not me.
You should talk to your mom.
You should get out of here
with all your friends.
After the play.
Act three, scene four.
"Go, go, you question
with a wicked tongue."
"Why, how now, Hamlet?"
"What's the matter now?"
"Have you forgot me?"
"No, by the rood, not so.
"You are the queen,
"your husband's brother's wife.
"And would it were not so...
You are my mother."
"Nay,
"then I'll set those to you
that can speak."
"Come, come, sit you down.
"You shall not budge.
"You go not
till I set you up a glass
where you may see
the inmost part of you."
"What wilt thou do?"
Tyler.
I don't know.
So what's the damage?
That's for him.
It's a medicinal paste.
There's a lot that can be done
in the next few weeks
that will help.
Having just one person,
it's a big deal.
Just one other person.
The, uh...
The other patient...
She didn't make it.
But I was with her.
She was at peace.
I didn't know her.
The Traveling Symphony
is here.
She was their Conductor.
Uh,
yellow poster, down there.
The answer is still no.
You can't play Gertrude
and Tyler can't play
fucking Hamlet
because it isn't
fucking art therapy.
It is civilization.
It's the only way
he'll talk to me, Clark.
It's all I want.
And all I want
is a fucking time machine!
You're right.
Tyler's dangerous.
I tried to kill him.
I wanted to.
But I couldn't.
Why not?
Do you know what this is?
It's Miranda's book.
How?
Did Tyler give you that?
No.
Arthur did.
I was Young Goneril
in "King Lear."
We met backstage.
My God.
You're Kiki.
Arthur loved you.
He loved Tyler, too.
- Clark... Clark!
- No.
We'll do your goddamn play.
I'll be Claudius.
It's what Arthur
would've wanted.
Oh, forgot to tell you,
their Conductor died.
Doctor said before he left.
Good news is,
I got power back online.
Should be good to go
for tonight.
Oh, God.
Kirsten, I'm so sorry.
I'm so, so sorry.
What can I do?
I won't tell the troupe
until after the play.
They won't perform well
if they know.
- Who's there?
- Nay, answer me.
- Go.
- Stand and unfold yourself.
How do you feel?
Right now.
Like I don't know
what I'm gonna do.
That feeling's perfect
for the scene.
Stand, ho! Who's there?
Friends to this ground.
And liegemen to the Dane.
In what particular thought
to work, I know not.
But in the gross and scope
of mine opinion,
this bodes some strange
eruption to our state.
But soft, behold.
Lo, where it comes again.
I'll cross it,
though it blast me.
Stay, illusion.
If thou hast any sound,
or use of voice,
speak to me.
If there be
any good thing to be done,
that may to thee do ease
and grace to me,
speak to me.
If thou art privy
to thy country's fate,
which, happily,
foreknowing may avoid,
oh, speak.
Speak!
Speak!
Stop it, Marcellus.
Shall I strike at it
with my partisan?
Do it if it will not stand.
- Ready?
- Tis here.
Tis here.
Kirsten.
Why are you helping me?
Stabbing you didn't work.
Break a leg.
Now? Now.
Though yet of Hamlet,
our dear brother's death,
the memory be green
and that it is us befitted
to bear our hearts in grief
and our whole kingdom to be
contracted in one brow of woe,
therefore, our sometime sister,
now our queen,
imperial jointress
in this warlike state.
And where,
as with defeated joy,
with mirth and funeral
and dirge in marriage,
in which each scale,
weighing delight and dole,
taken to wife.
What wouldst thou have,
Laertes?
My dread lord,
though willingly I came
to Denmark
to show my duty
in your coronation,
yet now, I must confess,
duty done,
my thoughts and wishes bend
again toward France.
And bow them to your gracious
leave and pardon.
Hast thou
thy father's leave?
What say Polonius?
He hath, my lord,
wrung from me my slow leave
by laborsome petition.
Take thy fair hour, Laertes.
Time be thine.
And thy best graces
spend it as thou will.
Now,
my cousin, Hamlet,
and my son...
A little more than kin
and less than kind.
How is that clouds
still hang on you?
Not so, my lord.
I am too much in the sun.
Good Hamlet,
cast thy nighted color off.
Let thine eye
look like a friend
on Denmark.
Do not forever
with thy vailed lids
seek for thy noble father
in the dust.
Thou know'st tis common...
All that lives must die,
passing through nature
to eternity.
Ay, madam, it is common.
If it be,
why seems it so particular
with thee?
Seems, madam?
Nay, it is.
I know not seems.
Tis not alone my inky cloak,
good mother.
Nor customary suits
of solemn black,
nor windy suspirations
of forced breath.
No.
Nor the fruitful river
in the eye,
nor the dejected 'havior
of the visage
together in all forms, moods,
shapes of grief
that can denote me truly.
These indeed seem,
for they are actions
that a man might play.
But I have that within
which passeth show.
These but the trappings
and suits of woe.
I loved him too, Tyler.
Pray thee,
stay with us.
Hi.
What's wrong?
Someone I loved died.
I just told my friends.
What are those?
Beacons.
The Prophet has lit the torch.
I saw it.
Station Eleven
is going to land.
Where are the other kids?
Can I show you something?
It's okay. I... just... here.
No knives.
I just want to show you.
Can I?
Here.
See?
It's just a book.
This is where
the prophecy comes from.
The Prophet hears it.
Yeah.
Because...
he remembers it.
Can you read?
No worries. Here.
I'm sorry
for burning down your tower.
Oh, well, I'm glad you did.
I hated that fucking place.
I'm sorry, too.
For what happened here.
For everything.
I would've gone with you.
Why didn't you
just ask me to come?
You wanted to stay.
Were you happier?
After?
Yeah.
Okay.
So you'll leave again.
I understand.
Mom.
Just come.
Okay.
"- I remember damage.
"Then escape.
"Then adrift
in a stranger's galaxy
for a long time."
"But I'm safe now.
I found it again."
"My home."
I have found you
nine times before, maybe ten.
And I'll find you again.
I find you because I know you,
and I know you
because we are the same.
I have a job to do.
Good story.
Love a good comeback.
I still have a job to do.
Hello?
Is this Captain Hugo Bennett,
currently aboard
Air Gitchegumee Flight 452
standing by on the runway
in Severn City?
Uh, yup. Who's this?
Captain, I...
I need you
to go against
every single instinct you have
and let the dead be gone.
You don't know me,
but my name is Miranda Carroll.
I'm 40 years old,
I was born
in the Virgin Islands,
and I lost my whole family
to a hurricane.
Hurricane Hugo.
Maybe you know it.
I was named after it.
Then you get it.
It's over.
There is no rescue mission.
Lock the doors.
Don't let them out.
- Who?
- Your passengers.
Why would I do that?
The people on that plane
are dead already.
They're all ghosts.
So am I. So are you.
But the people
in that airport...
The people in here
don't deserve to die
like caged animals.
No.
They don't deserve it.
Everybody I loved
and who loved me died
right in front of me, Captain.
A live wire came through
our flooded home.
I should've died too.
But I was coloring
up on the countertop.
So I survived.
The people in the airport...
They're on the countertop.
That's right.
They're all up
on the countertop now.
Have you got family, Captain?
I do. A small one.
My wife's not answering.
Left a message.
What message did you leave?
That I'd be home soon.
Well, folks, looks like
it's gonna be a little longer.
They're all heroes
on board that plane.
Every single one of them.
Those people saved us.
So did you.
All those big speeches
at the perfect time.
I was fucking good
at the big speeches, wasn't I?
They got me.
But you...
Miles,
you turned on the lights.
"But breathe his faults
so quaintly...
"That they may seem
the taints of liberty,
"the flash and outbreak
of a fiery mind,
"a savageness
in unreclaimed blood
of general assault."
We lost someone today,
and she loved this song.

There's only so far

Raising kids is hard,

You go in and out of sync.
It's like a yo-yo.
You love them,
but you get angry.
You scare them, they run away.
I was never scared with you.
I was always scared.
Then I met this girl.
Said I'd walk her home.
It was cold.
She forgot her key.
You walked her home.
Thank you.
There goes your family.
Yup.
I will... I'll put the airport
on the wheel.
Bring your family next year.
Yeah.
They know all about you.
Frank and Key and Auddie.
I tell them the story.

do you have?
Uh, logistics.
Oh, what does that mean?
It's...
The path things take
from A to B.
It's always made sense to me.
Tyler would love this.
My son.
With Elizabeth. Yeah.
Send him this one.
I have more.
How does it feel to...
To actually
accomplish something?
It's strange.
I lost everyone that knew me.
I lost you.
I had to finish this first.
That's...
that's the only way
I know how to say it.
I'm just sorry that I...
Was too late.
This is Miranda.
Miranda, it's Clark,
from... from before.
Clark, how are you?
I was gonna ask you
the same thing when we spoke.
I... I fell down some stairs.
Oh. Where are you?
Malaysia.
- Where are you?
- Michigan.
A place known only as
the Severn City Airport.
Let me guess,
flight diverted?
Mm-hmm.
I'm on my way to Chicago
to pick up Arthur's body.
What's your situation?
Um, I'm sealed
in a hotel room alone,
kind of drunk,
whole world's ending,
hoping I live
to see the sunrise.
An old friend just called back.
So there's something
I wanted to say to you, Miranda,
in case we don't survive.
At this time...
Those, um...
first few months you and Arthur
were together
were the happiest time
in my life.
I wish we'd stayed in touch.
Oh, I don't stay in touch.
I know.
And I-I know
you haven't seen Arthur,
but I had dinner with him
about a month ago in Chicago
and we talked about you.
I told him
you weren't an asshole,
you were just an artist.
He called me.
Told me you said some things
that opened his eyes.
Oh.
I woke up the next day
and finished the book,
last two pages.
Had a flight to Chicago.
Found a print shop in
Lincolnwood called Zalinski's.
Printed five.
I wanted to send you one,
but I've got it here.
Well, how'd it go
with Arthur?
He asked me out.
We made a plan.
Just...
our paths crossed
at the wrong time.
Did you know there's only one
real road into your airport?
S... what did you say?
That you're on
a middle-of-nowhere island.
If no one's sick inside,
you still got a shot.
- Yeah, no, sorry.
- Before that.
Our paths crossed
at the wrong time.
Because Elizabeth and Tyler
are here with me.
It's...
I didn't think much of it
on the plane when I saw them,
but now...
Miranda...
You have to help them.
How?
Miranda?
All customer service
counters are closed
at this time.
We'll update you
when we know...
Jim?
How are you?
I'm dying.
And my filling just fell out.
I need help.
Okay.

Congratulations,

Kirsten, Alexandra's told us
so much about you.
It's so good
to finally meet you.
We'd like to go now,
with Sarah.
Your Conductor will recover,
but she can't travel yet.
It takes a day
to get the doctor
and a day to bring him back.
So with the performance
being tomorrow,
you can get her back
after the play.
Sit with me.
I heard about
the Traveling Symphony
in Year Ten.
I was patient.
I suggested it in Year 15.
I knew that Clark would
agree, eventually,
and he did.
I won't let this derail us.
We need to open the doors.
You know, every town we go to
has fought for 20 years
to survive.
Not one of them
has ever locked us up,
held our members hostage.
So I'm sorry about your fire,
but fuck you.
You're not special.
What? What have you lost?
The Museum of Civilization.
Lucky you.
The world is still
full of garbage from Before.
- I've lost more.
- But he came back.
My son died in a fire.
- Ask anyone.
- No.
Your son ran away,
and now, he came back.
No one finds people
from Before.
The flu took everything
from everyone.
So it matters
getting anybody back.
I thought my son...
burned himself alive,
in front of me.
And he did that to me
so that I would have no hope.
I didn't even get
to have the dream.
Who's back?
I have no idea
who my son even is.
He won't even speak to me.
He just... he just stares
back at me like I'm the ghost.
You're Gertrude.
Sorry?
You should play Gertrude.
You played Gertrude
off-Broadway.
I read about it
in "Us Magazine."
I'm not an actor anymore,
I'm directing.
No, I'm the director.
But this is how
you talk to your son.
We do one show,
then we leave.
The entire Symphony.
Look you, sir.
Inquire me first...
- Tuba.
- What Danskers are in Paris.
What are you doing?
You're giving a command
to someone.
I mean, you're delighted
by your fucking schemes.
Are you directing now?
Yes, you're back to Laertes.
- But Elizabeth's directing.
- Elizabeth's Gertrude.
Listen to Kirsten.
Oh, thank fucking Christ.
Clark ran into the fire.
By the time Miles
pulled him out,
both his arms were burned.
I'll leave you here.
I have another matter
to attend to.
They look like fireflies.
It's unusual for us,
so much change.
Hey.
Hey.
What's that?
Who's playing Hamlet?
You?
The Prophet.
When we got separated,
I went to find him.
To kill him, to protect you,
to protect all of us,
and when I found him,
there were
just children everywhere.
And he said
that you were in danger
and he knew how to find you.
- And I didn't.
- I don't care.
I saw you leave with him,
last night.
I want to stay here.
For a year.
- No.
- Why not?
Because we travel
for a reason.
- What is it?
- To come back.
To come back every single year.
Well, what if we didn't?
Alex.
Alex, stop.
You were right
at Pingtree.
I don't need these anymore.
I've had them for too long.
Will you put them
somewhere safe for me?
- Elizabeth.
- Alex?
What are you doing awake?
You should get some sleep.
Kirsten, are you ready?
Yeah.
Just trust me, okay?
Bye.
- Is M.C.
- Miranda Carroll?
Mm-hmm.
I did not realize you were
also a graphic novelist.
I started the day
my family died.
Your whole family died
on the same day?
They did.
There is no rescue.
I'm sorry.
Stay safe.
If you're together with
your family, stay together.
I'm glad they're not here.
Likely there will be a way
for survivors to...
Okay.
FAA just updated.
Your friends landed
a couple hours ago.
And nobody's infected...
Another plane landed
half an hour ago.
Gitchegumee Air, that means
"big sea water" in Ojibwe.
In from...
Chicago.
Have they deplaned yet?
No.
I gotta talk to the pilot.
Why?
He can't
let those people off.
They're clean inside.
They're safe.
How do I... how do I get him?
How do I talk
to the pilot, Jim?
Okay.
You can't get inside
FAA comms, but...
the pilot's name is...
The pilot's name is
Captain Hugo Bennett.
Hugo?
Try his phone.
Credit card, Jim.
Come on.
Here, use the blue one.
Oh, shit.
Oh, 414-175-6283.
Say it with me.
Say it with me, Jim.
Both: 414-175-6283.
414-175-6283.
6283.
414-175-6283.
Looks like Miles
got the lights working.
You guys hiding
someone else back there?
The lights are on.
What's your name?
Sarah.
What are you feeling, Sarah?
I'm ready.
Okay.
It's okay.
You can let go.
We're not alone.
Do you hear that?
Oh.
Rest in peace,
Sarah.
Here.
You guys have
a real prison thing.
He gets out of everything.
He's like Houdini.
Here.
Here, brought you this.
Your mom's playing Gertrude.
Why?
Because you're Hamlet.
Cody was the one who wanted
to be an actor, not me.
You should talk to your mom.
You should get out of here
with all your friends.
After the play.
Act three, scene four.
"Go, go, you question
with a wicked tongue."
"Why, how now, Hamlet?"
"What's the matter now?"
"Have you forgot me?"
"No, by the rood, not so.
"You are the queen,
"your husband's brother's wife.
"And would it were not so...
You are my mother."
"Nay,
"then I'll set those to you
that can speak."
"Come, come, sit you down.
"You shall not budge.
"You go not
till I set you up a glass
where you may see
the inmost part of you."
"What wilt thou do?"
Tyler.
I don't know.
So what's the damage?
That's for him.
It's a medicinal paste.
There's a lot that can be done
in the next few weeks
that will help.
Having just one person,
it's a big deal.
Just one other person.
The, uh...
The other patient...
She didn't make it.
But I was with her.
She was at peace.
I didn't know her.
The Traveling Symphony
is here.
She was their Conductor.
Uh,
yellow poster, down there.
The answer is still no.
You can't play Gertrude
and Tyler can't play
fucking Hamlet
because it isn't
fucking art therapy.
It is civilization.
It's the only way
he'll talk to me, Clark.
It's all I want.
And all I want
is a fucking time machine!
You're right.
Tyler's dangerous.
I tried to kill him.
I wanted to.
But I couldn't.
Why not?
Do you know what this is?
It's Miranda's book.
How?
Did Tyler give you that?
No.
Arthur did.
I was Young Goneril
in "King Lear."
We met backstage.
My God.
You're Kiki.
Arthur loved you.
He loved Tyler, too.
- Clark... Clark!
- No.
We'll do your goddamn play.
I'll be Claudius.
It's what Arthur
would've wanted.
Oh, forgot to tell you,
their Conductor died.
Doctor said before he left.
Good news is,
I got power back online.
Should be good to go
for tonight.
Oh, God.
Kirsten, I'm so sorry.
I'm so, so sorry.
What can I do?
I won't tell the troupe
until after the play.
They won't perform well
if they know.
- Who's there?
- Nay, answer me.
- Go.
- Stand and unfold yourself.
How do you feel?
Right now.
Like I don't know
what I'm gonna do.
That feeling's perfect
for the scene.
Stand, ho! Who's there?
Friends to this ground.
And liegemen to the Dane.
In what particular thought
to work, I know not.
But in the gross and scope
of mine opinion,
this bodes some strange
eruption to our state.
But soft, behold.
Lo, where it comes again.
I'll cross it,
though it blast me.
Stay, illusion.
If thou hast any sound,
or use of voice,
speak to me.
If there be
any good thing to be done,
that may to thee do ease
and grace to me,
speak to me.
If thou art privy
to thy country's fate,
which, happily,
foreknowing may avoid,
oh, speak.
Speak!
Speak!
Stop it, Marcellus.
Shall I strike at it
with my partisan?
Do it if it will not stand.
- Ready?
- Tis here.
Tis here.
Kirsten.
Why are you helping me?
Stabbing you didn't work.
Break a leg.
Now? Now.
Though yet of Hamlet,
our dear brother's death,
the memory be green
and that it is us befitted
to bear our hearts in grief
and our whole kingdom to be
contracted in one brow of woe,
therefore, our sometime sister,
now our queen,
imperial jointress
in this warlike state.
And where,
as with defeated joy,
with mirth and funeral
and dirge in marriage,
in which each scale,
weighing delight and dole,
taken to wife.
What wouldst thou have,
Laertes?
My dread lord,
though willingly I came
to Denmark
to show my duty
in your coronation,
yet now, I must confess,
duty done,
my thoughts and wishes bend
again toward France.
And bow them to your gracious
leave and pardon.
Hast thou
thy father's leave?
What say Polonius?
He hath, my lord,
wrung from me my slow leave
by laborsome petition.
Take thy fair hour, Laertes.
Time be thine.
And thy best graces
spend it as thou will.
Now,
my cousin, Hamlet,
and my son...
A little more than kin
and less than kind.
How is that clouds
still hang on you?
Not so, my lord.
I am too much in the sun.
Good Hamlet,
cast thy nighted color off.
Let thine eye
look like a friend
on Denmark.
Do not forever
with thy vailed lids
seek for thy noble father
in the dust.
Thou know'st tis common...
All that lives must die,
passing through nature
to eternity.
Ay, madam, it is common.
If it be,
why seems it so particular
with thee?
Seems, madam?
Nay, it is.
I know not seems.
Tis not alone my inky cloak,
good mother.
Nor customary suits
of solemn black,
nor windy suspirations
of forced breath.
No.
Nor the fruitful river
in the eye,
nor the dejected 'havior
of the visage
together in all forms, moods,
shapes of grief
that can denote me truly.
These indeed seem,
for they are actions
that a man might play.
But I have that within
which passeth show.
These but the trappings
and suits of woe.
I loved him too, Tyler.
Pray thee,
stay with us.
Hi.
What's wrong?
Someone I loved died.
I just told my friends.
What are those?
Beacons.
The Prophet has lit the torch.
I saw it.
Station Eleven
is going to land.
Where are the other kids?
Can I show you something?
It's okay. I... just... here.
No knives.
I just want to show you.
Can I?
Here.
See?
It's just a book.
This is where
the prophecy comes from.
The Prophet hears it.
Yeah.
Because...
he remembers it.
Can you read?
No worries. Here.
I'm sorry
for burning down your tower.
Oh, well, I'm glad you did.
I hated that fucking place.
I'm sorry, too.
For what happened here.
For everything.
I would've gone with you.
Why didn't you
just ask me to come?
You wanted to stay.
Were you happier?
After?
Yeah.
Okay.
So you'll leave again.
I understand.
Mom.
Just come.
Okay.
"- I remember damage.
"Then escape.
"Then adrift
in a stranger's galaxy
for a long time."
"But I'm safe now.
I found it again."
"My home."
I have found you
nine times before, maybe ten.
And I'll find you again.
I find you because I know you,
and I know you
because we are the same.
I have a job to do.
Good story.
Love a good comeback.
I still have a job to do.
Hello?
Is this Captain Hugo Bennett,
currently aboard
Air Gitchegumee Flight 452
standing by on the runway
in Severn City?
Uh, yup. Who's this?
Captain, I...
I need you
to go against
every single instinct you have
and let the dead be gone.
You don't know me,
but my name is Miranda Carroll.
I'm 40 years old,
I was born
in the Virgin Islands,
and I lost my whole family
to a hurricane.
Hurricane Hugo.
Maybe you know it.
I was named after it.
Then you get it.
It's over.
There is no rescue mission.
Lock the doors.
Don't let them out.
- Who?
- Your passengers.
Why would I do that?
The people on that plane
are dead already.
They're all ghosts.
So am I. So are you.
But the people
in that airport...
The people in here
don't deserve to die
like caged animals.
No.
They don't deserve it.
Everybody I loved
and who loved me died
right in front of me, Captain.
A live wire came through
our flooded home.
I should've died too.
But I was coloring
up on the countertop.
So I survived.
The people in the airport...
They're on the countertop.
That's right.
They're all up
on the countertop now.
Have you got family, Captain?
I do. A small one.
My wife's not answering.
Left a message.
What message did you leave?
That I'd be home soon.
Well, folks, looks like
it's gonna be a little longer.
They're all heroes
on board that plane.
Every single one of them.
Those people saved us.
So did you.
All those big speeches
at the perfect time.
I was fucking good
at the big speeches, wasn't I?
They got me.
But you...
Miles,
you turned on the lights.
"But breathe his faults
so quaintly...
"That they may seem
the taints of liberty,
"the flash and outbreak
of a fiery mind,
"a savageness
in unreclaimed blood
of general assault."
We lost someone today,

So, I mean, this is...
Hey.
I love you, Kirsten.
I love you.
Goodbye.
Wait, now?
Thanks.
Don't be strangers.
Come on, Mom.
What the fuck?
- Hello. May I?
- Hey, yes.
- Can I join you?
- Yes. Get in.
- Mount-a-bike, right?
- Yes.
What's it called,
your island?
Delano.
Lara's from there.
Islands are great
when you got kids.
There's only so far
they can run.
Raising kids is hard,
you know?
You go in and out of sync.
It's like a yo-yo.
You love them,
but you get angry.
You scare them, they run away.
I was never scared with you.
I was always scared.
Then I met this girl.
Said I'd walk her home.
It was cold.
She forgot her key.
You walked her home.
Thank you.
There goes your family.
Yup.
I will... I'll put the airport
on the wheel.
Bring your family next year.
Yeah.
They know all about you.
Frank and Key and Auddie.
I tell them the story.
Goodbye, Kirsten.
