The skin is hardening at accelerated rate.

I need a little sleep. Infection to Pupa in seven days.

A cuck, what's a cuck?

You are.

What is he still doing here?

She's always hated me, ain't she?

She thinks I'm trying to be her dad, or something.

I wrote a list of all the people in the town who deserve punishment.

And now is our chance to bring them to justice.

Stop messing about, we're going.

Oh, whatever. I'm staying put!

Steff... Go!

GROWLING STEFF CRIES OUT

We need to get out of town,

grow our numbers, and fight.

ROARING

Who ordered this?

You did.

I'm calling Command.

GUNSHOT No, you're not.

Morgan worked at Kafferton.

It's actually an antidote.

Oh!

We need to take a little walk to one of those checkpoints.

CHANTING, FANFARE

Join the militia!

Join Billy's army!

Join the militia!

Join to defend Dambury!

ZOMBIE GROWLS

Hey!

YELLING Get him!

CLAMOUR

We need to get to the checkpoint before we get caught up in this.

Get the antidote outside Dambury.

Defend the streets! Let's go.

Billy's army!

Come on!

SHOUTING, GUNFIRE

Everything is under control, Mr Clacy.

I trust everything is going to plan in Westminster?

The government is in free fall.

Everything is in place.

It's on the edge of collapse.

We're taking back control.

What choice do they have?

They do what we say.

Or we reveal the truth about Kafferton to the press.

We'll never get through.

Get back, retreat! Get back to the Town Hall!

This is no good.

GUNFIRE They're shooting them.

You're suddenly very squeamish.

I just don't like seeing people hurt.

SCOFFS: Oh, God!

All right, all right.

I'm sorry. I'm being naive, I know.

But believe me,

I've paid the price for it.

How?

Have you never told her about your family?

No. Course I haven't.

Can you be trusted to bring this to its conclusion, Colonel Wrollen?

Yes, sir.

Then commence Operation Icarus immediately.

It's time to clean up this mess.

Dambury and its inhabitants have served their purpose.

DRUMBEAT

Come on, come on! Right, come on, come on.

We know what we're looking for, we know what we're looking for.

Look in the box!

Go, go. Files!

Put these in a box. Go, go, go, go, go!

Right, come on!

You OK? Fucking hell, it's all right.

I'm finding it difficult to move.

Yeah, I know. The virus is entering its final stages.

OK? The body, it gets tougher until it stops the host moving.

Can we do something?

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe another shot of the serum...

..might buy us some time.

Tell them, Morgan.

Tell them about your family.

AIRCRAFT SOAR OVERHEAD

DISTANT GUNFIRE

My wife was always complaining that I was spending too much time

at the office and that I should bring my work home with me.

Spend more time with the kids.

But I couldn't because my work was classified.

And then one day, I did bring it home.

Unintentionally.

Well, that's how I found out how my virus worked on humans.

Three kids.

And then my wife.

They burned her.

They had to.

Me, I don't know...

How I got away with it, I don't know.

Somehow never caught it.

We'll get the antidote out.

We'll make them listen.

We have to.

But we'll need a lot of people to help us.

DISTANT GUNFIRE

What do you want?

I've got a message from your nan.

What does she want?

Talk to you.

Steff, we have a working vaccine.

I've taken it.

I don't feel bad, I feel great.

Mm. For now.

Well, I don't want to hurt anyone.

Well, I do.

Finn!

I'm gonna kick your ass

and I'm gonna give you a nice shot of vaccine.

I'm still angry with you.

You know... HE YELLS

You know, it's as plain as the nose on my face.

What I had for you,

you know, it was more of a crush, really.

Yeah, not a crush, that sounds way too innocent.

HE GRUNTS

HE COUGHS My body's changed.

It's stronger now.

Yes! That really hurt.

You know, you changed sides so quickly.

I never took you as fickle.

I didn't change sides.

I just spent a long time trying to join a side that didn't want me.

Oh, boo-hoo. You sound like your Clarence Chutt internet pal.

I thought you knew men were meant to be more stoic?

Steff, when are you going to wake up?

HE GRUNTS

CLAMOUR, SCREAMING

So, will your antidote help Frank?

No. Frank's at his most dangerous now.

I mean, victims instinctively spread the disease as far as they can.

Well, I've got no choice, then.

I'll have to go and find Frank and reason with him.

Oh, yeah?

It worked well last time.

Well, what else can I do?

Just stay here and become a rock?

You know, Cess, without you,

I would've been able to work out how this virus mutated.

So, you get to use me one last time.

You know something,

when this is done,

you might think differently of me.

Oh!

I doubt it.

Cess.

DISTANT EXPLOSIONS

Be careful.

You know I'm easily led!

I was really in a bad place!

A-And they have all this cool stuff,

like, like special vision and...

HE GRUNTS

I know. I've been infected.

Oh... Oh, yeah.

SHE GRUNTS

You've just done it again!

You traded following around Kelly to following around her nan.

HE GRUNTS

UNDER BREATH: Shit. Shit.

Steff... Steff. Steff!

MUFFLED GUNFIRE, CLAMOUR

Oops!

Charlie!

Kelly! What the fuck, man?

COUGHING Where have you been?

Why did you leave Morgan's lab?

He made a vaccine.

It helped Finn. We're trying to get it out.

We tried to get out on the north road.

This is all that's left of us.

I've got to get them to the Town Hall. There's medical help there.

Well, we need help. We got to move fast.

Guys, come on. Let's go.

Fucking hell. I should have never have left you there.

Charlie, you can't do right at the moment,

just choose who you want to hurt the least.

I'm so sorry. You know that, yeah?

YELLING, CLAMOUR

Wait! Wait, wait!

Move, move. My husband's been shot.

Let us through!

Charlie, get the kids to follow me, all right?

Let's find out who's in charge.

COUGHING, PANICKED CLAMOUR

CHARLIE: Hello, who's in charge here? Hey!

Hello, hello! Who's... Who's... Is anybody in charge here?!

YELLING HE CRIES OUT

Where's the doctor?

Listen, mate, he's been shot, all right? In the guts.

COUGHING

Hello. Listen.

Please, listen! I have some important information.

We don't have much time!

A helicopter will be arriving in Dambury

and it could be on its way right now and it will be carrying a bomb.

ALL: A bomb? PANICKED CLAMOUR

DR KALLERNAM: Hello! Hello!

I'm Doctor Kallernam and I'm in charge of the medical staff here.

Doctor, we have an antidote and we need to get it out of the town.

An antidote?

We need everybody's help to get it out of Dambury, now.

How do you know they're gonna drop a bomb?

Because I wrote the plan.

What plan?! YELLING

Shut up! Let him speak!

The Civil Biological Weapon Infection plan.

It's specifically... Please, listen!

It's specifically designed for situations like this.

And what is this kind of situation?

A spill.

A spill? MUFFLED YELLING

What's this?

Well, it's just all sorts.

It's... It's opioids. It's generic, but it's...

It's all in date. It should be all right.

Jon. Give it me, yeah. Come on, mate. Really?

Karen!

Oh, thank fuck! I thought I'd killed you.

Babes, babes, it's all right.

I went to the edge of town, right, and I've found a way out.

What, and you came back?

I... I... I'm back. I'm here.

I did a good thing, right?

You didn't just fuck off and save yourself?

I mean, I'm... I'm progressing.

OVERWHELMING CLAMOUR What are you talking about?!

Would you all please listen to me?!

CLAMOUR SETTLES

I need to undo this.

To make things better.

Just keep him comfortable at home...

I need to manufacture more of this vaccine...

I'm not having another vaccine! ..at a laboratory,

and I need your help now.

You're wasting our time!

It's 5G!

VARIOUS: Oh, come on! Just pointing it out!

There's one outside of mine, it gives me a fucking headache!

GUNSHOT, SCREAMING

Who's in charge here?

Right, then, I guess I am.

Says who?

I do. Me and my armed mob.

Right, I've heard enough.

Grab him. Grab Doctor Plague. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

We're rooting out the abusers

and bringing judgment to all those who have supported

and tolerated them.

Right? Choose your side.

Ain't that your dad?

Oh, grab him! Grab him now!

YELLING Get off me!

This is a perfect example. Get your hands off me!

Right! He's not on the sex offenders register.

But I can testify that he needs to be punished.

What are you doing?

We're taking back control of the town.

Go on, get out.

What the... Oh, my God!

Billy?

Charlie, I need to tell you something.

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Look, that guy that you're hauling out, he's...

He's got a cure to the virus.

No, Charlie, they're...

They're all just fucking with your mind, I promise.

Just... Just trust me.

People will say anything to survive.

Well, where are we going?

I had a vision.

About Dambury.

Everything that's wrong with it.

I'm here to put it right.

WHISPERS: All right.

All right, come on. You ready? Let's go!

UNINTELLIGIBLE CHANTING Come on!

CHANTING: Dambury! Dambury! Dambury! Dambury! Dambury!

We never thought to just go through and, like, execute them.

It's bold.

OK, all right. This looks in order.

Basic paedo.

I haven't done anything! This is a mistake.

Yeah, well, you would say that, wouldn't you?

I've got the same name as some bloke who got arrested years ago.

I keep writing to the council about it. They didn't do anything.

It seems obvious to me. All right, let's do this.

That isn't me, is it?

Time to run the gauntlet.

Come on.

Got a lovely day for it. I'm... I'm... I'm not a paedophile.

You're a paedophile. I... I'm a member of the National Trust.

How long I got?

Remember Jane?

Jane?

Jane!

She ate her Mum?!

Do you... Are you se...

Do you have some sort of like mental block or something?

Oh, yes, her.

Janine knew this would happen, didn't she?

I can stop you being destroyed by this virus.

Mm?

You...

..need to eat my spleen.

Oh... Oh, no.

Aw!

This man has always belittled me and humiliated me.

What a fucking minute, he's my defence? Shut up!

But that's no reason to kill him.

I've seen something in him.

He's changing.

There you go, I'm a changed man.

I'm changing. Shut up.

He beat my mum.

And put hands on me when I was 18.

I was drunk. We've been through this.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

What, mistaken identity?

Yeah, any port in a storm.

The accidental nonce?

It was a one-off mistake, right?

I was gutted it happened,

but it was a fucking mistake, Billy.

Karen, please, tell 'em.

I mean... Karen?

..everything they're saying is true.

He can be horrible.

Really horrible, but, like...

..he can also be caring and kind and...

..you know, and he's paid his way, right?

He's put food on the table even when they weren't his kids,

and, yes, there's been shouting,

and, yes, there's been arguments and he's monstering, but...

..Billy, he is a good man.

Wow.

TEARFULLY: How beautiful is this?

Everyone you abused is defending you.

But who defends them, huh?

VOICE-BREAKING: Who defends them?

CHANTING: Gauntlet! Gauntlet!

Look, I know a way out!

All right? There's only one way out for you.

I could've gone, but I came back to save my family.

No, wait, that's enough.

What are you doing?

Tell her, Charlie. Shut up.

Look, I hate him, too.

But that's no reason to kill him, Billy.

No! It is enough of a reason.

Billy... It's enough of a reason for me.

He doesn't get away with this

because this morning was the first time he didn't choose himself first.

A day ago, I had to save Maisy from getting her face smashed in

because of his actions.

It doesn't go away.

I left home because...

..I couldn't look you in the eye, Mum.

After he came home drunk and jumped me.

And it was all about how... How he made a mistake.

And he wasn't even the one to blame.

Why-Why-Why... MUM GRUNTS

Why didn't you put us first?

This is murder, Billy.

Plain and simple, this is murder, all right?

Why didn't you protect us?

What, you think this makes it better?

This ain't gonna make it better, Billy. All right?

It ain't.

He's lorded this over us for too many years.

Now it's my turn to exert...

Wait, Billy. ..a bit of a violent threat.

What is wrong with you? How does it feel, huh?

To be on the other side of it?

It's uncomfortable.

It's OK.

There's no winning with these pricks.

They will always find a way to be a victim.

They'll always find a reason to weasel their way out of it.

You came into my family...

..where you had no place to be...

..and you destroyed it.

Tell her, Karen.

Tell me what?

You gonna tell her? No? Right.

This is my family.

Don't you do that.

Don't you fucking disrespect my dad like that.

You're not...

Your dad, my best friend.

I wouldn't disrespect him, right.

You're not my dad!

You were never my dad!

Yeah, you're right.

But I'm Maisy's.

Huh? What you doing?

It's the truth.

You're nasty.

You're a nasty liar. Ask your mum. Karen?

You're a nasty liar. I'm not lying.

Mum?

Karen, tell 'em.

He's not lying.

Mum? He's not lying, I'm sorry.

Kids, I'm sorry.

Billy, think about Maisy.

Listen to your mum.

I'm sorry.

Listen to your mum, Billy. Please. Listen to your mum. Billy. Please.

Grab him. No. Grab him!

why can't he be bothered to save you?

He could have helped his own.

But he turned his back on us.

No, no, that's not true!

He can reverse all this!

but I'm infected with something that heals me and I want to share it.

Steff? I'm sorry I said all those things to you, Dad.

Protect my sister and my mum.

We need to fucking go. We need to go now!

It was the only way to save him.

Save him?

We need to take shelter. Take him to the basement.

Shit!

Stop! Stop!

Package armed. I have the cure! Tracking decent. Wind factor...

Call off the chopper.

Ah... And what have we here?

I was made redundant, but soon found work at Dambury.

I was taught to fear death by nuclear annihilation.

Here, here's the cure.

I just need to make more.

Oh, that's good news.

So call off the bomb.

The bomb?

Operation Icarus.

Well, it's gone too far for that.

What are you saying?

Well, I'm afraid...

..I couldn't stop it...

..even if I wanted to.

Detonation in ten...

Get her, Frank! Kill her!

Get her, Frank!

Now, there's gonna be a little bit of a bang,

so if I was you, I'd put your hands over your ears.

Get off me!

My family were in there!

Ugh!

Where's Mr Clacy?

Clacy is gone.

Gone?

ZAPPING Argh!

We have got a lot of work to do, Doctor.

Halt!

Oh! Easy.

Please, be seated.

You are extraordinary people.

You have survived a cataclysm.

If it wasn't for you, this could have spiralled out of control.

Colonel Wrollen is being questioned.

A bad apple, I'm afraid.

HE CHUCKLES

You're not some government person, are you?

I represent certain interests in the country

and they want to thank you.

Thank us? You destroyed our town.

So... What can we do for you?

All those people died and we get a reward?

We want to go to uni.

And not a shit one.

Very, very good.

And you're rehousing our families, right?

We will look after them.

If we keep our mouths shut?

Correctamundo.

If you're not government... then who are you?

There is place beyond monarchy.

Beyond politics.

We will be in touch.

OK. Off to isolation.

I just needed some fresh air.

Ha-ha, yes.

There was a definite school dinners ambience in the home tonight.

No, I meant to clear my head. Oh, yeah.

You know, I sometimes wonder why I came to this place, but then...

..I only have to spend a few minutes with you...

..and I know I made the right decision.

Time moves so fast...

..but if we work hard enough...

VOICE GROWS DISTORTED: ..we can make a minute last a lifetime.

Ah.

Where is she?

Cecily? Dead.

Well, well...

Your fight... is over.

I have to admit, I enjoyed it. Heh.

It was a new lease of life.

But, as bad as I got,

there was always a voice inside me

that knew what we were doing was wrong.

Ah.

OK, take him away.

As the last stage of the Salvepuerian sets in,

the subjects become immobilised,

a thick husk growing on them like a shell.

Time will tell what is happening within this chrysalis.

For now, all we can do is store them in Kafferton,

work towards a cure, and hope to God they never get free.

The town of Dambury is still in shock after a gas explosion

damaged a number of houses in several streets

and destroyed a portion of the town's centre.

Dambury's MP, Tom Field, has urged residents to stay at home

and not to approach the scene of the blast,

due to dangers of secondary explosions.

He says the gas industry has lessons to learn...

How long have I been here?

Six weeks.

Wh-where are my parents?

Close by. They made it.

You saved me.

No. We all saved each other.

That's how it works.

Hello, Finn.

Well...

How lovely to see you. How's the course going?

It's good. A science degree at Oxford. Wow.

Well, you inspired me, Morgan.

Good.

What?

Ah... It's just, erm...

..there's just a few things that

still don't really make any sense to me.

There's a lot of things that don't make sense.

You knew there'd be an accident eventually.

Mm... It was inevitable.

And you were on the ground, ready to deal with it.

Yep. Hm.

I was there at the last moment.

And now, you're back at the heart of it.

Useful again.

I suppose the point is...

..where did they get the idea in the first place?

I don't follow.

Not to break protocol and move deadly poisons around.

Well, whoever it was had in-depth knowledge

of the government's bioweapons programmes.

You know, probably a disgruntled ex-employee

who was very patient and very cunning.

Someone with a legitimate grudge against the Establishment.

Three kids.

Someone who could find vulnerabilities in the system...

..and exploit them.

Someone like that.

And that person would value human life so little

that he'd release this virus on the human population...

..for their own gain.

A monster.

But luckily, I was there to stop it.

It's, um... my first day here.

Oh, is it? Yeah.

Yeah, me too, actually. Oh.

So, um, what's your name?

Charlie.

Kelly.

Nice to meet you.
