You said I was one of your best guys.

Was.

But if you can't hold me back, just ask
them to take me off the block list.

Say that again, and I'll kick you and
your kid out on your ass.

Bringing her here to guilt me.

Look, I need to work.

She said a few years ago last week.

No, no, no, no, no. That ain't on me.

I'm not the jerk that spoke to a union
rep about radiation exposure one time.

You got your daughter.

Your nuts didn't fly.

Take the win.

Bye -bye.

Sick kid in my office.

You don't want to bring her here to kill
you.

It's in your face.

This is you.

Not all of you.

Not... Not... Hey, you. Stop

that. Are you mad enough to risk it all?
Today is your last chance in the year

to be on The Running Man.

If you can duck the boys in black, the
public, and McCone's hunters for 30

you'll run away with a billion new
dollars.

Go on.

I'll give you a head start.

You've got the cash if you've got the
balls.

Don't miss the final run of the season.

Don't worry.

Daddy's not that crazy.

Walk and feed the wheel. We're a big
-boned badass that's bravely the bag.

big bucks. Am I right, bud?

And away we'll go.

For 100 new dollars, the capital of
France is A, Marseille, C,

Lyon, or C, Paris?

Paris. That's deep.

Correct.

Paris.

Oh, look at the fuzzy hamster.

Did you see the fuzzy hamster? Bud, next
question. For $1 ,000, how many

laboratories does a NetAir Flying V
luxury jetliner have?

Is it A4, B5, or C6?

Say B, Bud.

Is it A?

It's...

See, Ted, it's good.

The rich are even more full of shit than
Daddy thought.

It's time to speed up, yeah!

Oh, God.

Bud, in my hand is the question that
could change your

life. Who in the world is a Catalonian?

Bud,

we hardly knew you.

Okay. How's she doing? Mommy.

How's she doing?

She's really burning up. Hey.

Mommy. Thank God you're here.

Can I feel?

She's hurting back.

That's not good.

Two drops.

All right.

Wait, what is this?

Look, I know.

Molly said he would have real bonds,
damn it. Real flumex. Yeah, well, a

black market buddy has all the stuff to
kill people, but it's so down to the

thing to save them.

All right.

Thank you.

This stuff doesn't make her better,
Leah.

But it makes her feel better.

Look, I just pulled another double at
the Hellhole Club, and if it wasn't dead

in the morning, I could still be there.
So that's what we can afford today.

I talked to him.

What, you did?

Who watched Kathy?

Took her with me.

Figured, you know, they'll trip him.

No, you took her so you wouldn't beat
the crap out of her.

Smart. I left my pride at the door. I
was respectful.

Maybe. Got a little heated at the end,
but by then it was game over.

They don't want us to win.

I'm sorry, Adley.

I tried.

Hey, you're just being punished for
being a good man.

You were just standing up for your guy.

I just didn't seem right. You know, I
got to be a dad and they didn't. Ben,

of this is your fault.

It doesn't change our situation.

No.

But we're in this together, right?

Wait, where's your sock?

Oh, Ben, those take forever to make. No,
no, it was on when we got home. Hold

on. It's here. It's here. Those are the
comfy things.

Shh. Why didn't you kick that off?

Shh. Don't worry.

Dad is going to find it.

Get it together, girl.

Honey, are you going back to the
Libertine? I don't want to. I thought

that place was dead in the morning. It
is.

Except for the most desperate, wasted
loser.

My friend told me how to get tips out of
these guys.

You're the way she can do it all the
time. No. Look, if these jerks can flash

indie piranhas, they can absolutely save
a kid's life. Babe, I can't let you do

that. Ben, she is burning up.

My friend makes 20 new every shift. You
usually see just one customer.

Hey, now, you know I'd never do that.

My friend doesn't even let her grab her
ass.

She just charms them into tipping for
something that's not on sale. And right

now it's prime time for that kind of
funny. The wrong exec thinks that you

ripped him off. You could end up in the
dump like that girl across the street.

I'm sorry. These men are savages. If we
don't get real farms, no real docs,

she's going to survive another night.

We don't have a choice.

Yeah, we do.

Where are you going?

Give money.

Enough for her to see a real doc before
bedtime.

I promise.

Hope you enjoy it.

Network building.

Tryouts. Proceed to your destination.

Loitering will be prosecuted.

Thank you.

No!

Eyes full!

Mouth closed!

Do not sit down!

Do not lay down!

Eyes full!

Mouth closed!

Do not sit down! Do not lay down!

Knack?

Have you spatially confirmed the
information is correct?

What's the triangle mean?

I'll read it to you. It'll be faster.

Employment history, hired by C -Gen,
fired for insubordination.

Why is there a red triangle on my file?

Hired by Net Utility, fired for... Hey
man, I asked you a question.

Insubordination?

Hired by the SenseNet for the daughter,
fired for insubordination. Poor kid.

You mention my daughter again, they
don't make class sick enough to stop me

choking you out.

Hey.

Go out 27, right?

Yeah. 29, neighbor.

Loughlin.

We've got the cash and you've got the
balls.

I'm Tim.

Tim.

Jansky.

Jansky's my last name and Tim is short
for Timothy.

Got it.

Should we all go around and say our
names in a fun fact?

We can do it later.

Oh, my God!

Obedience. Never.

Heroism. Useless.

Technology. Abuse.

Freedom. No.

Authority. Burn.

Anarchy. When.

Justice.

Hilarious.

Hugest puppy ever.

What about this one?

It's my favorite flower.

Giving me a hug.

Final image. Tell me about it.

Infinite bunnies sucked into a naive
tornado spraying blood all over the

And Mr. Richards, you are quantifiably
the angriest man to ever audition for

shows.

Well, that really pisses me off.

Proceed directly to your next
destination.

Final... Assessment.

Ooh, our jumpsuits are in here.

You're required to change your size
jumpsuit. You're on bug out.

Bang, bang, nice.

You must wear your designated jumpsuit.

Yo, Richard.

It would be us, man.

It would be us.

Come on, shit happens, right?

That's us.

They say you run to add life to your
days.

Not days to your life.

I'd say both are pretty fucking true.

Don't miss the final run of the season.

I always thought this was fake, but...
Hey, runner.

I don't know.

Yeah, no, but fake.

You look pretty real now.

All right, guys.

I'm feeling really osa.

Disgusting advice.

And it's feeling realer every second, y
'all.

Later.

Hey,

uh, you're the man, Richard.

Never would have made it without you.

You like spaghetti?

Hey, so far, so good.

Don't worry, we'll keep it down.

Now.

Mr.

Richards?

Peter Nunn has curriculum.

There's not death that man should fear.

Never beginning to live.

Go ahead. Relax.

Page 66.

I'm not trying to get myself killed.

Mr. Richards, I'll be honest with you.

I've said this to every contestant, but
this is the first time I've really meant

it.

You have what it takes to win this game.

Our viewers have a burning desire to see
a runner go the distance, and we've had

men come close.

29 days in season one.

But it's going to take somebody special
to go the full 30.

You tested off the charts, so I looked
through your employment history and had

my assistant shoot me your highlights.

And this is the most thrilling 10
seconds of video I've seen all year.

Well, they fired me for destroying the
armistice.

But you bounced back.

Hired by DefenseNet, the best wages
downtown.

The best dog shit's still dog shit.

Then why beg to be rehired?

Let's be honest.

You stuck your neck out one too many
times for your co -workers and got your

head chopped off.

Pretty gutsy, considering half the
country thinks the union should be

Well, I come from the other half.

So they can kiss my ass twice.

Right there is why you can win this
game.

You're a fighter, Richards.

Network blacklisted you from all the
quirks they own, except for this one.

You risked your life for other men and
their families long enough. Now do it

you and yours.

Put your boots on.

Make them pay in cash.

Sign the agreement and change your
family's life forever.

Father wouldn't want that.

Welcome to the

running man.

This is exciting.

Ah, there you are.

I assume you two had an understanding
based on her line of work.

She's a waitress at a club.

I've hit a nerve.

My apologies.

To mutually profitable collaboration.

Amazing gut.

Your Family Alliance liaison.

Family Alliance is the network's premium
private security service.

It's included in your contract.

No point in winning all that jack just
to get your people robbed and killed.

We'll relocate the fam.

Put them under an assumed name.

That's the one thing you won't have to
worry about.

You have one call.

To the wife.

Let her know. We'll be there in the
morning.

I need to bring her this tonight. I
promise I will be back before the show

starts. No one comes back.

I got to lock you in a really nice
apartment.

Come on, man.

I had a sick kid.

I'll deliver it now and bring back her a
seat.

Can you give her this too?

Hey, you okay?

Where are you?

I'm at the network building. I'm fine.

Look, a man named Doug, he's going to
bring you 500 new in cash.

Take her to Uptown Mercy, all right?

It's 24 -7. Get her a real doc, whatever
she needs.

What did you do?

I'm on the running, man.

Listen to me.

I promise I'll be back.

Let's roll.

Use your running band.

You're gonna use it for timers,
reminders, and rewards.

You got one job out there. Say what's on
your mind.

You're feeling angry, violent,
aggrieved. Don't think before you speak.

Daniel, you son of a bitch. How many
times I got to tell you, do not put

in my amused boots.

When I pull a mercury poison on a so
nice, your boots will not be amused,

Oh, this one?

Yeah, that's that.

Yep. Oh.

I know it's weird to see me in real
life, but you're used to it.

I'm flesh and blood just like you are.

My robot puts my pants on one leg at a
time.

Classic, Bobby.

Not.

Shake your dick in the crowd. That's a
bad note.

You look great.

Twenty seconds, people.

Be out there.

There it is.

The new Coliseum.

America, the greatest country in the
fucking universe.

We work hard. After a long day of
busting ass, we get to kick back and

good.

But some don't want to work for that
privilege.

The Proctor Reloader.

And why should they when they can make
it from you?

Welcome to the game where we give three
of these tough guys all the freedom they

want.

Biodata erase.

No scanners, no trackers. For 30 days,
all that stands between these men and

millions is you.

Record, report, reward. With over 10
million new dollars and prizes won, the

best audience in the world remains
undefeated.

your fury at the injustice of the world
has stopped you from reaching your full

potential but now that anger is your
superpower embrace it tail from right

in co -op city

35 -year -old man who thinks he's too
good to work for a living.

Mr. Richards' last job was a full -time
position at DefenseNet. Until he built

military secrets to calm the Union, he's
not even in.

That's bullshit!

That's bullshit!

Come on now, show this kid. Show up.

That's right.

He's Biff the Hand that feeds him
because that's what dogs do.

Remember that face.

You win 3 ,000 new dollars.

For a verified report and $10 ,000 is
the means to a kill.

We've doubled the prizes for the last
one of the season.

Because when the stakes go up, the
stakes go down.

And the stakes be high.

Because the thousand he wins goes to his
wife, Sheila.

A night witch who only takes the biggest
tips at the Liberty.

If you comprendo, I am your window.

Abandoned by Richards, it's up to her
now to raise the tragic kin of their

So with that, I think it's time for...
What up, Mr.

Richards?

Come on, can we hear it? Do you have any
famous last words?

Yeah. Fuck you, Dan!

Richards are what they used to refer to
as a game changer now listen I shouldn't

say this but when the run begins lay low
with your own kind you'll last longer

and also in case you missed it in your
contract every goon you kill wins you a

10k bonus and it's a hundo per hunter I
don't know how yet

Thank you.

Awards increase by a thousand per day
and double at the end of each week. The

grand prize for surviving day 30 is now
a billion new dollars!

Before they can win that, who do they
have to get past?

Ladies and gentlemen, meet the Hunters!

Five men who fight for real freedom.

Deep undercover where you least expect
them. In fact, they may be amongst you

right now!

to destroy, gentlemen.

Take a last look at these thugs.

Observe the typical disguise of their
kind used to escape justice.

In mere moments, they will walk among
you, free to do whatever they want,

we stop them together!

13th and Obama.

Hey, Running Man!

I was watching you out on the freebie.
13th and Obama.

Okay.

What's up, man?

Hey, take a pic with me. Okay.

What do you mean? No, it's okay.

You gotta be nice, man, so people don't
report you.

Okay? Because people will do that. Not
me, though, man. I'm a nice guy. No, you

know what? You're right.

Hey, we can pull over and pick up one of
these hookers. She can take the pick,

huh?

Sickest idea ever, man.

Yeah.

Hey,

where you going, man?

Yeah, you better run.

You don't see me on the hatch?

I saw you two blocks away on the
infrared.

What do you want?

Look, I need two ID cards and a gun.

Forget it. I don't do guns.

Go see Mickey on third.

What in the hell is your problem, man?

The running man?

What are you thinking?

I had you pegged for smarts. Look, I
didn't have a choice. Kathy was... Do

know how much danger you put me in
coming here?

If you want to kill yourself, fine, but
leave me out of it. Okay? You got it?

God

damn

it, Ben.

IDs are a hundred.

It's 30 each for costumes and
accessories.

I've got a priest, I've got a combat
veteran, I've got an exec.

And the rush order, make it 200 new, all
in.

Okay.

Go hide out in survival.

Tile five.

I'm going to lock the incinerator. Oh, I
already did.

You don't mind if I check, do you?

Here we go.

All right, you heroes, come and get it.

Listen, George, if he lets go, we're all
dead.

You sell a lot of these?

Oh, I can't keep them in stock.

Those TVs don't want you back.

Hold on.

So it's going to work?

Absolutely. Stand and we'll do it.

Okay, you ready?

One, two, three.

All right.

Let's test out this contact.

Can you read anything on that shelf?

B .F .E.

20. Holy shit. How do you have black
Irish?

That's not for sale. Yeah, like I put
that shit in my pocket.

Only took a couple grams to blow up a
fat person in the sewers uptown.

B .F .E.

Big fucking explosion.

So what's your plan?

I don't know.

Play along with my own kind?

Your own kind will sell you out in a
heartbeat.

I'd find the busiest place you can and
disappear in the crowd. That's my

Well, you can leave the same way you
came.

Molly, I had to do it.

No, you didn't.

I should have told Sheila yesterday, but
I wanted to tell you myself.

Hey, too late for that now.

Well, let's see.

See you on the big screen.

New York City, one way.

Safe travels, Mr.

Springer.

Hey, mister, your face.

You say anything, I will kill you so
fast your mom won't wake up.

But your mustache.

I'm sorry about that.

I'll be right back.

Welcome to the Brass Hotel, Mr.
Springer.

You saved your mustache.

Fell off on the train.

I hate when that happens.

Everything okay, Mr. Springer?

Yeah.

Have a good night.

Day. You know what?

Have fun.

friends of theirs.

I don't know

And that's Jansky, stepping out with his
black window.

What is this?

The fused window.

It's just a matter of time.

Get out of there, buddy.

Better eat up, then.

Enjoy those last bites before it's last.
Right. Move, move. You're walking. It's

the fucking running man.

Here we go.

Oh, man.

Hey! And don't you cross the line.

One down.

Hi,

I'd like to extend my stay for three
days.

I'd be happy to arrange that for you,
Mr. Springer.

In the same room, if possible. Of
course. Let me see what I can do.

Thank you.

Your look.

Looks like I can keep you in the same
room, Mr. Springer.

Great.

Can I get you a car this morning?

Uh, either way.

I have to go walk.

Attention passengers, this is our final
stop, Boston.

Please check your personal belongings
before leaving. Thank you for traveling

with us.

Hey brother, I need to get off the
street.

Oh yeah?

I'm looking for a place to rack out for
the money.

Mm -hmm.

Off Ned, if you know what I mean.

Oh, is that so?

I'll give you a hundred new for your
money and another hundred for your

A deuce hundo for this rat -ass jacket
and that rat -ass room.

Bella, you need to get a Jamaica plane.

Pick up your head, Ned. Come on.

Put that shit away, will you? Trying to
get us killed?

Let me see your face.

Where'd you deploy?

You ain't seen combat, but I reckon it
ain't stolen valor if you paid me for

You stay out of my stash.

I catch you in that basement again, I'm
gonna stomp you. And I'm gonna get Big

Brother to take care of you. He'll kick
your cow ass over the moon. Beat it!

Good luck with that.

to one of these tapes.

You know, I've always been the guy who
falls.

I showed up to work very soon.

Obviously.

I mean, I'm on the murder, Joe.

What are you going to do?

Take on the whole world?

Sweet. So here I am, a grown -ass man
playing hide -and -seek for money.

They'll just lay low.

Keep it cool.

Try not to burn out.

Depressed. Demonic.

Deceased.

What's happened with the remaining one
of the Greeks?

Tune in and find out.

Next stop, rich and bold, it's those
Americanos.

Hey, Jim.

How do you like this energy wine?

I'm a big fan.

Love it.

How about you, Bill?

That's pretty much my favorite thing,
Jim.

So, uh, guys, do you mind if I ask you a
personal question?

Why do we all have the same voice?

All right, then.

Mail later.

Good to see you too, Frank.

Give it a rest, Frank.

At least you got someone to talk to.

Damn.

Well, where did you find it?

We don't need to see America.

We don't need to see space. We don't
need to see America.

There's no way out.

Never have you wondered.

I saw him. I saw Ben Richards. He's
heading downstairs.

Walk the walk.

The rover can never enter the building
any moment now.

It won't regain anything.

Here we go!

He's not going anywhere.

Bravo.

Bravo.

Hey,

buddy. You're all free to eat. The
hunters are raging to intercept their

Better run, Mr. Richard.

This is why we walk the long way. Okay,
let's go.

Stop moving me!

He's headed for the lobby.

Richard,

you're going down.

Closing at the YVA in Fenway takes the
lives of eight network team results.

Belinda Gray, coming to the YVA stand at
a calico graph that took Boston to a 4

No confirmation yet on whether this is
Boston.

Orangino, the runner, is still at home.

A thrilling live update of the running
team from Denver.

I know you're here.

Come here, you rat.

Get off me.

You're the one who reported me. It
wasn't me.

I ain't no rat. Oh, yeah?

Let me go.

I'm going to get Big Bro to take care of
you. You think your Big Bro can kick my

ass after what I just did?

He's not going to kick your ass. He's
going to save it. You need help.

I mean, you've got to get off these
streets, man.

Who's in zoos all up in this ditch?

Everyone's looking for you.

I'll be right back.

Got you, Richard.

Don't run the reference about a lot, but

fed the grandkids of her life.

Do you think the network would rather
pay us reward money or make up some

bullshit and arrest us?

What if I gave you enough to get your
sister real for us?

Say five hundred million.

I can get you out of varsity, but it
won't be for money.

Bro, this dude ain't going nowhere.

Goon's got the hood surrounded.

We out. Stop.

You know, you seem like a smart cat.

What made you sign up to be a cog in
their propaganda machine?

I'm just trying to take care of my
family.

Just like you and your sister.

Jim.

My kid was sick.

I fed my wife enough to get her well.

Now I'm trying to win enough to get them
out.

There's only two.

So if I do my job, she'll never even
remember Swampside.

Okay, Richards.

I can get you past that blockade.

But I'm gonna need a couple days to set
it up, so... How about hearing me, Tom?

You know, you could go to 430 if you
play smart.

And what makes you such an expert?

Tune in and find out.

Let's go to 430.

I want you to come. So why is it got to
be so damn rough?

What goes on behind the scenes of the
biggest 3D show of all time? Welcome to

The Apostle, episode 33 of Rules of the
Running Man.

If you did, do it and distribute.

The network has three types for every
run. Oh, my God.

Type 1, hopeless dude.

Hopeless dude is cursed with a fatal
misunderstanding of human nature.

He usually lasts less than 48 hours.

Come and get me.

Give me a serve, pal.

Take out!

No! He is cooked!

Type 2. Negative dude.

Bro gets smoked by the end of week one
because he buys too much ass and not

enough food with his running start.

As blame to his appetite, he often
serves himself up.

But if a runner's getting good ratings,
they let him run 13 days.

And just like Papa always said, you can
cry, but you can't catch a ghost.

By the end of week two, ratings usually
peak.

Oh, shit.

The crowd warps blood, and final dude
becomes a victim of his own success.

They might hide from destiny, but they
never are one.

That's me, Nicole!

I'm the running man!

Double jail!

Rest in pieces!

Let's stand.

Is that supposed to inspire me? Oh, come
on, man! Don't you get it?

After that escape tonight, live, prime
time, you...

You are my new dude.

And they're gonna squeeze every last
drop of ratings out of your ass, so you

gotta leave until negative news comes
out to get somewhere safe.

Which gives us enough time to set you up
for the biggest underdog win in game

show history.

So where the hell is safe?

So you know what you're doing?

Yes, we'll find out.

Package heading your way.

Yeah, special delivery has been on
preview.

Okay, I see you.

And pick up location B. Got it.

Mama's coming, baby.

Okay, okay.

How does a five -year -old get lung
cancer?

Radioactive dust.

We rolled out an explosion.

Never heard about that.

Yeah, you never heard of it because the
network owns the news.

Just like they own that munitions
factory. Just like they own the

why bother complying with safety regs,
right?

That's how Joan got sick.

For all you watching, not the exact...

Not the technicals. If you live in a
tower uptown, I'm not talking to you.

I'm talking to the people in the co -op.

The ones who can't get a job in squatter
tribes.

The kids getting shot for looking at a
goon the wrong way.

There's something you all need to know.

The network is giving our kids cancer
and they are covering it up.

Previously on The Running Man.

I'm still here, you shit eaters.

Ladies and gentlemen, last night, seven
men and one woman gave their lives to

protect ours.

Their love for their country only
matched by the love for their children.

Uh -oh.

Someone chose to end the lives of these
eight heroes, and that someone was Ben

Richards.

His new face has arrived.

That's all he has to say about it.

For all you watchers, not even death.

Not the technicals. If you live in a
tower of town, I'm not talking to you.

talking to the people in the co -op. The
squatter tribe.

The ones who take their jobs.

The kids getting shot for looking at a
goon the wrong way.

There's something you all need to know.

I laughed my ass off smoking those
drinks.

And I wasn't just laughing at the
screen.

I was laughing at those kids.

Now do you know how it felt when daddy
did it to someone else?

I didn't say that. Okay, I made a video
about the network giving kids cancer.

It's all fake.

You're not getting money here.

Tonight. Right now. I want him gone. For
your mom.

What kind of woman are you? None of
that.

I just heard from producer Dan Kelly,
who is personally double from the Lord

Embrace. Now, $20 ,000.

But he confirmed a corporate report that
he is going to kill.

No, no.

I know,

I know. Stay cool.

They're still on us. I know.

Go ahead. Go ahead.

Go ahead.

to a skeleton.

You can trust them with your life.

Just don't mention hot dogs around the
man.

Say hot dogs?

Yep. Go catch that slow train to Maine.

Less people in the sticks, but keep your
head down and don't trust anyone.

This guy.

His name's Elton.

Hardcore. Down for the cause.

You really think this will work?

Look, we know they're tracking down the
man.

I appreciate the rest of your self
-tape. My man head -stops, drops them on

way while I get safe on the ground. They
won't know what hit them.

Out. Unless you got.

Just in case.

Why are you helping me?

You see the power they have.

We don't got each other's back if the
game's over before it even begins.

Hey.

Done.

What's up, America?

I was about to tell you the network
faked itself, Dave, but if I did, they

faked this one, too. So, I'm just going
to read you something instead.

Dear Diary, I woke up with the flaws
today.

My regular gig of killing heroic goons
was feeling too routine.

Time for a me day.

Though I ate my favorite breakfast in
bed, the scent was puffy. I could have

eaten one.

Then I said, yo, Joe, I blow up a
courthouse.

I know.

Creature of habit.

And I'm... I'm going to go out.

I'm going to go out.

I'm going to go out. I'm going to go
out.

I'm going to go out.

I'm going to go out. I'm going to go
out.

I'm going to go out.

I'm going to go out.

We're still here, you shittiers!

Damn, Richard, that's a tough act to
follow, but... Challenge accepted!

Yeah!

Oh!

Go off, neighbor.

Oh, my God! Look at it!

Oh!

Definitely hurt.

Walk, Lincoln.

Real. Sheep boy's going down. No way. I
got 10 cleanses. Ben Richards dies next.

Oh, come on. He's pissed the network off
all the way. That's why he's going to

win. The guy's got marks. Yeah, he's one
of us.

Taking on the boys in black.

Giving the world a figure.

He's your final runner.

That's a fact. Damn straight.

What do you think, Reverend?

You seen this Richards guy?

No.

But he sounds like quite the character.

What's wrong with you?

An idiot.

Me again.

Look, here's the real deal.

I'm not out here trying to fight the
power.

I'm not out here to have fun.

I'm here to win and get back in the
standing.

So you won't see me throwing miles off
cocktails. You won't see me throwing

parties. In fact, you won't see me at
all.

Just in time, father.

Best take out of Maine.

Have a good

night.

Careful out there.

to the guy who stopped me from seeing my
daughter again.

is a message for my fellow citizens and
let me make this clear for the cheap

seats if i die on this show i died for
the two things i believe in my wife

and my kid everything else and everyone
else can fuck off

we

all know what that sound

is

I won for her money.

She rolled the dice on a very public
appearance at the Holy Grail Casino. But

didn't gamble that our hunters would be
there.

All you managed to kill was my vibe.

Remember, kids, don't freaking drive.

Unless you're good at it.

He hates civilian films.

Things are going to start ramping up.

Mom, wouldn't be surprised if they fire
up the DNA sniffers tonight.

Oh, what a tough guy.

Don't ask for it, Mom. Alfie!

What if he's in Derry?

He's not in Derry, Mom.

Don't worry.

She thinks you're an actual demon, but
she's fairly deaf. We can use our normal

voice. Kill him.

Well, bastard.

Hunt him down!

She used to be a kind, clever woman.

This is where it all happens.

Amateur lab for making handcrafted soap,
as far as you know.

Normal, non -revolutionary literature.

Wink wink.

Copy art from my harmless community
newsletter.

You follow my drift?

Huh.

So what's a DNA scanner?

A black -off scanner that ID highly
fragmented strands of DNA.

These things are hidden in every street
lamp across the country, which is why

you've got to get underground ASAP.

Man, if you want to ask, just ask.

What is that with the hot dog part?

My dad was a cop.

A good cop.

Quit in protest when the network
privatized local police.

He believed officers should be
accountable to the town, but pay them,

government. Sure as hell not some
megacorp.

So he bought the cart, busted his ass.
We never missed a meal.

Better an honorable hot dog vendor than
a crooked goon.

But his friends who signed on with the
NCD didn't appreciate his choices.

And they let him know every chance they
got.

He made damn sure we were safe in his
house.

But every time he took that card out,
oh, you see what I did to my mom.

And this is what they did to my dad.

His buddies on the force never solved
the case.

They're the ones who killed him.

But you can't kill an idea.

Dad was their worst nightmare.

A free man with a conscience.

And everything they destroyed in him
lives on in me.

Like a nuclear blast.

It never burns out.

What's that?

I'm good.

Abrams, you can't outrun faith.

You cannot hide.

It's different.

That's not true.

I have a detailed map for how to get
there. You can survive down there for

years, but you'll only need it for two
weeks.

I'll pre -shoot the rest of your tapes
tomorrow.

What do you think?

Um... Or... Maybe just... White.

Hardcore.

Check this out.

You can be arrested just for having
proof in your house.

So this won't be distributed until right
after you win.

What the hell? A special issue on the
network's most heinous crime.

What does that have to do with me?

A bomb's chemicals hold great power.

But without an initiator to make it go
boom, it's harmless.

You know why they cheered for you down
there?

They think you just might win.

And if you can survive against those
booms, so can they.

The people have had it.

This country's ready to blow.

And you're the initiator. I'm not.

The initiator.

I'm a guy trying to give back to his
family.

It's you against the world either way,
brother.

Why not be both?

I don't think the bathroom across the
hall is haunted, so that's on you.

If the light in the hall is on, She's
asleep.

Hey.

I appreciate what you're doing.

But if they find out you're helping
those same goons that got your dad,

come for you.

Once and all.

Take care of your mom.

I wish you the best.

Rule two.

Bullies are cowards.

Hit me.

Rule three.

Rule four.

Don't cross the network.

Ever.

Rule five.

You remember.

Your dad had loved you. whole lot.

I'll be looking out for you, no matter
what.

Ha!

I knew it was you, devil murderer!

Stay away from my house, you savage!

Wait, Mark!

Oh, never eat puppies again!

press that button, the NCG will come and
fire you. Okay? We will not care who

gets caught in the crossfire. It will be
a bloodbath.

We don't need every goon in the state
coming through that door, right?

Mr.

Richards just broke into my home!

You can't stay where you are. Who are
you? We gotta get going.

I just need five minutes to follow these
guys before we do.

What? Grab your stuff. I'll get the
beams.

They're coming to get you.

You're not listening. It's dangerous.

No. No.

Get in the safe room. No. No.

Egyptian! You shot up the wrong hall!

We're over here!

Here we go.

Are you crazy?

We don't have time to play games. Oh,
yes, we do. Dr. Sondra's ever arrived on

scene in four minutes and 30 seconds.

We'd be blown away by that.

You can fly down a pole. I brought us up
here. So we can fly.

A pole!

Eight, four minutes left.

Don't leave me long enough. Long gone?

We are still in the goddamn house.

He's going to have to run in person on
him.

People are dying, you fucking
psychopath.

If you can fake everything, why don't
you just fake the whole show?

Believe me, we have tried.

But humans bring that special,
unpredictable spark.

The audience lives for these happy
accidents.

A little advice?

I'll pay.

Make sure my family gets the money.

You want me to off one of your own guys?

It's all good for me.

Okay, on you. In five, four, three, two,

one.

Into action.

Get in.

What? What about the door?

Thank you very much.

Bright red blood pumps adrenaline
through your veins.

This game is no game.

Life and death are on the line.

Can you feel it, Mr. Richards?

Congratulations.

You took out a hunter.

Now it's down to four of them.

Plus, every citizen of this great
nation.

One in five pages with the big rock.

Bunkers dug into the hill.

Malak.

Reacric thinks of fear as the prey
animal realizes he's surrounded by

Reality thinks then as he scurries to
hide, desperately hoping to survive.

But deep down, he already knows it's too
late.

Because this is America, goddammit! And
we don't put up with no bullshit!

Let us!

It's our birthright!

Set it free!

Richard chose this path, and it's up to
you to show him where it ends.

Keep your eyes open so you can see the
terror in his, and hunt him down!

People on this show never come back.

Hey, Dan.

I'm starting to get how this game works.

It's not about me winning or losing.

It's about your ratings.

About how much chaos I can cause.

I'm taking this thing all the way to the
end.

And I'm done playing defense, I promise
you that.

But here's the deal.

I will see my family again.

And as long as they keep getting paid...

Click whoever you want in front of me. I
will run through all of them.

I know you're about 30.

So guess what, you son of a bitch.

I'm from Swampside.

Let's throw the rule book out.

Here's to mutually profitable
annihilation.

You want to go?

I'll give you a show.

Americano.

Americano.

Americano.

Americano. Let's do this.

We interrupt the Americanos for a live
update from the running man. Who even

likes this show? The board, duh. Duh
-duh. You're the only one dense enough

think I know.

So, baby.

Please, thank you.

I can't hear you.

I can't hear you. I can't hear you. I
can't hear you. I can't hear you.

I can't hear you. I can't hear you.

I can't hear you.

Those goons are going to frag us if you
don't back this car!

Right now!

Your car! Your car!

and people need self -driving cars.

Recalculate.

Keep it pointed north.

All the way to the border.

Go ahead.

Why?

You can go crazy and kill me?

No.

You have one minute to speak freely.

How'd you live with yourself?

criticize my driving?

Tell me how to operate my own car?

I am a member of society.

You disgust me.

You abandon that starving baby, that
horrible wife of yours.

You can what?

Kill people for money?

And you only kill the best people.

The people who protect us from the worst
like you.

And that's not a word I use.

That is my family.

Our number finally came up for the part.

Watched Kathy try ice cream for the
first time.

That was the best day of my life.

But yeah, you're right.

The show is so big.

Not the bull.

Not the death.

Just the part that makes people like you
think you're better than people like

us. Let me ask you something. How much
was that scarf?

Huh?

More than the meds my daughter needed
when she was dying of the flu?

The flu!

That is a human life hanging around your
neck.

You seem to be doing fine.

Who can blame you? It's a nice scarf.

I'm not of that person.

No, do not start crying.

I will shoot us both if you start
crying.

Cry when it's over.

What will that be?

Yielding for an emergency vehicle.

Ninth. Disable it! Disable it! Do not
pull!

Yielding in 20 feet.

In 20 feet.

You have successfully yielded. Ninth.

Sorry, lady. We're the good guys.

Step out of the car.

You'll be safe with us.

It's here we want.

What the

fuck

is happening?

Producers just killed an hour and a
half.

Instead of me.

I don't want to do that.

All those members are trying to protect
me from you.

What is it going to take for you to get?

I'm not the bad guy.

Take the car.

Drive away. I don't want to hurt you.
You think they're going to let you walk

after seeing that?

You're on the show now.

No, I'm not.

Richards lives.

And it's time that he's got a hostage.

Amelia Williams, a 27 -year -old realtor
from Bangalore, Maine. Help me!

They've got him!

the crisis continues as ms williams gray
albine heads north on rustic rock

sighting road the hostage situation has
triggered the mct to go into full

tactical order unbelievable

They're just going to keep filming us?

If a runner gets good ratings, they let
him run.

Oh, God.

Is that a plus eight?

All right.

From Clara Park to Les Pass.

Keep driving.

I'm not going to shoot.

How do you know?

Because I've got to wait for the show to
start. It's going to be live.

In what live?

Filming.

Amelia,

can you give me the gun?

Why not?

You're obviously the hero.

Trust me.

I don't think we're going to need it
anymore.

According to report, state your claim.

Oh my God, I just saw Ben Richards.

I'm sorry, wait. I am Ben Richards.

And if you don't want to be the reason
Amelia dies, get this message to kill

him. Do it, Ted, please!

You heard the lady.

some bullshit that had to be done.

Look at all these people who know the
truth.

Are you willing to kill all of them?

Because I am.

I'm holding on to this bullhorn with my
right hand.

My left hand is in my front pouch,
wrapped around 12 pounds of black

Irish.

But I used to work at Network Public
Utility.

You get these two -thumb fatbergs, take
less than a gram and blow those up.

12 pounds of vaporize -everything -in -a
-half -mile -radius.

Oh, yeah.

BFB -20, the most highly regulated
industrial explosive.

Nobody even said a fucking thing about
that.

Guess Molly didn't tell you everything.

I got my finger stuck in the detonator
ring, and it's on half -cock.

So, I want one of those big, fancy,
flimsy airplanes.

I want two auto -shoots handed to Amelia
at the bottom of the ramp.

If the shoots are sabotaged, if you make
any sudden moves, if you don't back

those trucks up and let me on that
tarmac right fucking now, you won't even

a go -boom.

I'll just see you in hell and laugh in
your face.

You got one minute.

This didn't take long.

You got a direct line of law.

Last chance to run.

No.

You made me feel like I'm the bad guy.

Now I have to prove I'm not.

Why don't you give a shit what I think?

I'm going to convince them your handbag
is a bomb long enough to bail out over

Canada.

They'll never let me win, so I'm going
to slip out the back door and wait out

the clock.

We just have to keep the audience
entertained until that jet crosses the

What if they call your bluff?

You make sure they know it's real. Get
scared, freak out, curse, scream, call

the worst thing that's possible.

Just remember, everything bad, it's all
good freebie.

Act terrified when we're going into the
shoot.

I won't have that.

When Grabs is gone, you'll know it's
time to go off.

So, you think you're the guy who stopped
me from seeing my daughter again?

So start today.

Get on the plane. Only if you take your
mask off.

Audience will love it.

Keep dreaming.

Welcome aboard, Mr. Richards, to the
Metair Flybee Luxury Jetliner, the

ultimate in private travel.

With state -of -the -art safety
features, this is first -class comfort

-high. So sit back and enjoy the most
relaxing flight of your life.

Welcome aboard, Mr. Richards. I'm
Captain Holloway.

You'll excuse me if I don't shake your
hand.

That's First Officer Dunninger and
Navigation Officer Dunning to your left.

Looks like you're missing one.

Hey, Captain. How many lavatories are on
this rust bucket?

Four. Six.

Why don't you check them all for
stowaways? Anyone sneaks up on me, it's

to be a real short ride.

So where are we headed tonight?

Plot a route.

over the richest homes from here to
Canada.

Fly as low as you can. Let me know when
we're 10 minutes from the border.

As you wish.

Hey, Richard.

Six minutes. Showtime.

Get that last meal before they continue
to blow your head off in front of a

couple billion people.

Oh, yeah?

You know, you should really put the
makeup on before the show starts. Come

show. Let's go. Oh, you want to go? We
can all go right now. Stop!

Do it! Do it, tough guy!

Why are you doing this?

She's my twitch. Show him the bomb!

Show it to him before he shoots you and
kills us all!

No, stop it!

Because I don't want to feel like this
anymore!

Do you fucking hear me? I'm done!

I'm fucking done!

Hello, Richard. What if I offer you an
amnesty deal and an exit visa?

You're nothing but a Halloween costume.

You can't offer me shit.

Be true, Mr. Richards.

You can, but I can't. How about I offer
you a deal? You tell your hunters in the

cockpit to do what I tell them,
otherwise I blow up this jet and

Ben, I admire your commitment to the
bit, but we're short on time, so I'll be

blunt.

We know you're bluffing.

Flying V Mark II has scanners built into
the doors.

It's been wildly entertaining, but you
can give Amelia her lovely handbag back

now.

Evan?

Evan, don't.

That's game.

Thank you.

You can remain there until I say
otherwise.

I need a moment to have a word with Mr.
Richards to discuss a sensitive matter.

Let's keep this between us.

It wasn't too long ago that someone with
my job thought it was more important to

force some hypocritical moral message
down society's throat than to simply

entertain them.

They forgot about the power of illusion,
the power of the star, which is what

you are, Richard.

And this is why we want to offer you
your own show.

Now picture it.

A former runner, redeemed through
righteous vengeance, turns his life

become a lethal force of good.

They call it...

The boy's authorized me to pay you five
million new dollars per season. There's

only one condition.

Sit back, watch the intro, and when
Bobby cues you, kill every hunter on

jet.

Condition met.

I'll remote pilot you back to the studio
jet port where the president of the

United States will induct you as hunter
number six.

Another title ID on climate.

The data says the revenge plot. Revenge?

Revenge for what?

Who is going to root for a guy who kills
your national heroes?

I call bullshit, Dan. Let me worry about
the police.

No deal.

Revenge for your wife and child.

Why would I ever believe you?

Because if they were still alive, I'd
hold them at gunpoint and force them to

whatever I want.

You tortured him right in front of you.

I didn't want to show you this, but I'm
out of time to save your life.

The hunter you killed was part of a
tight crew.

McCone and the men in that cockpit flew
to co -op city, refueling Pathies who

crept down location.

They badged their way past the family
alliance agents and... I'm sorry, Ben.

Not all accidents are happy.

want you to win.

The audience is already on your side.

Once I show them footage of McCone and
his men killing your family, they will

follow you into hell.

Think of what this does to your
narrative.

30 seconds to showtime, Ben.

You'll find a gun by the coffee station
in the galley, but if you don't sign

before the theme music ends, I'll order
the bastards that killed your family to

kill you too.

You can find out.

Everyone, everyone, freeze still!

Out, out!

Running fans!

We start today with a sober atmosphere.

We here at The Running Man believe in
following the rules.

So it amazes me to tell you that one of
our most important years This is broken

by the very men we entrust to enforce
them.

It's McConaughey, and it's Hunter.

And that rule is, he protected the
Runner's family from harm.

No one would believe we did this.

We thought it only fair to let Richards
administer the penalty for this grave

infraction.

As we go on to Richards, we close this
meeting.

You're making coffee?

Yeah. And drink it!

When you are still and real,

I took the other parachute. I couldn't
stop

it.

if you had that the prayer has become

That's it. That's it.

That's it.

That all comes down to this.

I'm taking a savage blow.

Shut the fuck up, Bobby!

This is how they fire me. What do you
think they'll do to you?

Chum?

You think you're the only runner ever
got offered a deal?

Think surviving two weeks in prison is
going to be great?

Good 29 days.

What's more likely?

A. I killed your family.

B. Killian sold you just the right lie
to get a bloodbath season finale.

Or is he too fucking stupid to figure it
out?

Take it from someone who took the deal
to be a hunter instead of the hunter.

The only time you'll ever see your
family again is when they torture them

front of you.

Fuck with your head enough to make you
want to kill it all away.

You're full of shit.

You're all full of shit.

Who did?

I'm giving you a paper.

I will help you.

That came.

Troubled corpse.

Get them back on the ground.

Listen,

you should open on its own.

But if it doesn't, just let it rip.

When you get on the ground, just run
like hell. Don't look back.

When I tell you, you're going to pull
that down all the way.

I did it to myself.

Ben Richards, you are the man.

We have command of the jet.

Our best trauma surgeons are already on
the tarmac, ready to pack you up as good

as new.

But wait.

Making his freebie debut with a special
message.

The creator of Running Match, super
producer Ben Killian.

Mr. Richards, we here at the network
believe you embody.

The raw strength and salt of the earth
moral backbone this country stands for.

And we want, no, we need to see more.

Congratulations,

Ben, and welcome to the network family.

I already got a family.

You kill them or not, Dan.

Give it up for Dan Killian.

times do you get to tell 10 billion
people how you really feel?

How does it feel to be a hero, Ben?

Nothing I've done on the show makes me a
hero.

I tried to be a hero once.

They blacklisted my ass.

My daughter got sick.

It was the only job I could get.

Seems like the whole point of FreeZine
is to make us hate each other so

they can keep stealing from us while we
fight in the mud.

Do you want the truth?

Turn it off.

We are all being fucked by the network.

Find out who really runs it.

The cord.

Report them.

Get their names.

You just met one of them.

Dan Killian.

You remember that face.

The Watch Freebie.

Watch pays for it.

Turn it off.

We've been on an ad break since you said
nothing you did on the show made you a

hero. You think it was worth it? You
think your little rant makes you a

We're going live again in 30, and this
time you'll play your part, because if

not, we're going to run this instead.

I told you I was going to burn this
building down, and everyone did it!

I'm fed.

Work with me, Richards. Don't throw your
life away.

Don't make me fly that jet into the
network building.

They'll blow you out of the sky.

Are they dead or alive, dude?

Who? My family. Who cares? If I told you
they were alive, would you even believe

me? We are alive in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Okay, out of your way.

I told you I was going to burn this
building down.

There's 5 ,000 innocent people in this
building!

We're most clear.

Engage.

Look at what you've done.

Think big.

I told you I was going to fuck you up.

Mia.

No.

No, no, no.

The men called everyone.

The MCG will blow him out of the sky!

You don't do that.

True believers?

Let's wind that back.

Ben Richards.

Legend. The network wants you to think
that on day 18 of his run, after taking

out all five hunters, the longest
surviving contestant in season one

suicide by surface -to -air missile.

The apostle calls bullshit.

First of all, they cut the ad six
minutes earlier than usual and ran them

twice as long. They must have needed the
time to write this fake -ass shit.

I will stick it in your mouth and laugh
in your face!

And then, they swamped the crowd.

Where does Mr. Guy come from?

Season 5, episode 13 to be exact.

That's how dumb the network thinks we
are.

Their viral distortions meant none of us
knew the truth about what happened on

that jet.

Until... A revolutionary riot girl found
a jet black bus on the roof of her co

-op. Her uncle had the audio duped,
distributed, and put it on blast.

Turn it off.

And God damn it, did we ever. The
network wasn't about to give us the

we learned how to give it to each other.
Ben lit the fuse, and the truth

exploded like a nuclear blast before the
network even knew it existed.

Don't watch TV.

Watch the page board.
