In a world
filled with uncertainty

and political turmoil,
a shining light emerges,

ready to lead senate
towards a brighter future.

Hey, everybody, thank you
so much for coming, thank you.

Meet Bennett Wilde,

the embodiment of hope and progress.

Let me tell you why you
want Bennett in the senate,

because I will fight for you.

I will fight for your children,

I will fight for your families,

I will fight for our future.

America deserves-

♪ A turtle by the name of Bert ♪

♪ And Bert the Turtle was very alert ♪

An opportunity
thrive for every citizen

from every background.

With the wealth of political knowledge

and years of service to the community,

he's the seasoned leader senate needs.

You can't do this job by
yourself, it takes a team,

and that's what you all are.

Get ready for a new day.

The candidate
that crosses party lines

alongside his devoted wife,

supported by some of
America's finest staff,

and who wholeheartedly
cares about all Americans.

That's right, 'cause
I'd rather help people

than attack them.

You duck then you cover.

Where everyone has a voice

and no one is left behind.

Bennett is the candidate
who will bring us closer

to that dream.

Closer to that dream.

To that dream.

I'm Bennett J. Wilde and
I approve this message.

Join the
movement, join the cause,

and together, let's build a
brighter future for America.

Though
international sources confirmed

that the tests are routine in nature,

tensions continue to escalate,

and the topic of nuclear weapons

continues to be at the
forefront of the conversation.

Well, if that doesn't
set a festive mood.

No?

How about I turn on the ball game?

America's pastime on America's day.

Oh, so you're a baseball fan
now are you all of a sudden?

I'm a man of the people, don't you know?

Part of the job.

It's all part of the job.

Melinda, I am so glad you are here.

I know it's Fourth of July,
you'd rather be with your family

but it's a big night for us,

and we couldn't do it without you.

Of course, Mr. Wilde, no problem.

If there are any leftovers, as always,

you can take them home to your family.

Thank you, they'll love that.

Mind the mess, Melinda.

Sorry, Mrs. Wilde.

Answer the door.

I have to go put my
face on for your guests.

Well, hello there.

Happy Fourth.

You remember my husband, Miles.

Miles, it's good to see you.

Thanks for having us, Senator.

It's Fourth of July, first names only.

Come on in.

Well, it's nice to see
everyone out of the office

and fundraising dinners.

Miles, how are you students?

Hopefully enjoying their
summer break with no homework.

Oh, that reminds me.

This year you're going to be joining Miles

and his students to draw hand turkeys.

It's a great press hit,

and of course in a few years
you'll be pardoning one.

Hmm.

I'm sorry, I should've asked
about the hand turkeys first,

I'm just nervous.

He'd be an idiot not to pick you.

Go get him.

So hand turkeys, huh?

Bold plan.

Well, that's just part of it.

Lisa, only three senators
have gone directly from congress

to the Oval Office in over 200 years.

And with the right person beside you,

cultivating your political
profile, it'll be four.

Well, there's more to running
an effective administration

than public image.

Well, good thing we have

such a reliable political
strategist on our team then.

Speaking of, where is Harry?

What?

Just spit it out.

Just promise me you
won't talk about money

or politics or religion.

What do you
want me to be, a mute?

This is work, Zoe.

I thought it was a
Fourth of July barbecue.

Just give him a simple thank you,

that's it, all I'm asking for.

He helped you out, he didn't have to.

I didn't ask him to.

Zoe.

What?

You're the one freaking
out about being late.

Hey.

Hey, it is extremely important
that tonight goes well.

I will thank him, okay?

Happy?

But I'll do it when I feel like it.

Capiche?

I appreciate it.

Super.

We done here?

Wait, where's the pie?

Ta-da.

Safe and sound.

This isn't funny.

It's a little funny.

It's not funny.

Okay.

Happy Fourth, Harry.

Same to you, Lisa.

Hey, Harry, come on in here.

You must be Zoe.

I'm Lisa.

Oh, I know who you are.

This must be-

Yes, this is my sister Zoe,

Zoe, Senator Wilde.

Bennett, please.

Nice to finally meet you, Zoe.

Yeah, I just wanna say
gorgeous place you've got here.

Well, thank you very much.

My beautiful wife Regina
is quite the decorator

among other things.

Yeah.

Try campaign backer.

Mind if I snoop?

Not at all, be my guest.

Make yourself at home.

Hi, you two.

Welcome, welcome.

Regina, your home is lovely.

Bennett said you did
all the work yourself.

Not by choice.

Thank you.

Of course.

You try getting this
man to settle on a swatch.

No.

Well, if you'll excuse me,

I'll go put some finishing
touches on our dinner.

Excellent, thank you, honey.

Wine.

I have an earthy Oregon 2016 Pinot Noir,

or if you like something a
little more crisp, 2018 Sancerre.

-No, the other's fine.
-I love Sancerre.

Okay.

Well, I know that I shouldn't
be talking shop tonight-

But a good crisis doesn't take holidays.

No, it does not.

In order to end this one quickly,

by the end of tonight
I'm going to be choosing

my next chief of staff.

Now you know how much I
love a healthy competition,

so have at it.

Well, whoever you choose,

I can make the announcement
on my segment next week,

if you'd like.

What segment?

Oh, CNN.

They want my party insight

on the recent international
missile testing.

It's not that big of a deal.

In studio?

Yes, in New York on Tuesday.

This Tuesday in New York.

Hmm, I might have to
make an office excursion.

Are you all
right, what happened?

How bad is it?

I'm fine, I'm fine.

I know you think you're
clever, but you're not,

and it'll cost him.

Oh, don't be jealous.

You'll be on that screen one day, kiddo.

Nice pie.

We have my family's
charity dinner Tuesday night.

I didn't know I had to go.

You don't have to go, Bennett,

I just think the family has
been very supportive of you

and if you're planning on announcing

your presidential campaign
in the spring, it would be-

Why do you always do that?

Do what?

Every time you talk
about how you funded me,

about how your parents
are so supportive of me,

like I'm a little piece on the game board

you can just move around.

Like I'm some sort of show pony,

you just trot out whenever you want.

That is not true.

That's absolutely true.

I just wanna know why you do it.

I mean, I'm here doing the work.

We have guests waiting.

Okay.

I will be at the dinner.

Be at the dinner.

So you're with the opposition.

Something like that.

What's that you got there?

I shouldn't, thanks though.

How else are we supposed to
survive the rest of the night?

Easy there, wild man.

So how'd you end up here?

Miles, Lisa's husband, you?

Zoe, Harry's sister.

Ah.

They really hate each other, yeah?

Yes.

Yes, they do.

Don't tell me you're a politician too.

Me?

Oh, no.

No, no, no.

But I've been around it forever.

Lisa and I were high school sweethearts.

No, I am but a lowly grade school teacher.

What do you do?

I'm a paramedic.

I used to be a paramedic.

Decided to do something else?

Hey, Miles, we're just about ready.

Hey, honey, coming.

I'll see you in there.

You didn't have to bring her.

I wanted to.

And she wanted to, you know, thank you.

She's still shaken up
about everything, so.

Yeah, of course.

Cleisthenes, the father of democracy.

It was Cleisthenes who
introduced the world

to the idea of rule by the people.

How's that working out?

It looks expensive.

Politics was never cheap.

Whoa, sounds like they're
having fun in the kitchen.

Yeah, Senator, Lisa's
a campaign manager,

she can sell ice to an
Eskimo, I'll give her that,

but she's not a chief of staff.

She belongs on the
trail, not in the office.

We both know it.

How about we not pull the
knives out until after dinner?

Yes, sir.

Right, so I'm standing up
at the front of the classroom

and it goes quiet, and
that is not a good sign

in a classroom.

And I turn around and there's Cassie,

and I didn't know what to do.

I mean, she's eight.

Can you imagine?

Absolutely not.

So what happened to the girl?

They suspended her.

They suspended an eight year old?

Well, God forbid

we have a bunch of little
savages running around.

Well, there's an argument to be made

that life was better when we
were all a bunch of savages.

I was being facetious.

Man is born free, and
everywhere he is in chains.

Rousseau.

But we're not having that
debate in the modern era.

No?

Melinda, will you please
silence the house phone?

Thank you very much.

But man still has no natural authority

over his fellow man.

Well, I think we can all agree

that people are better off

when a government maintains order.

Because otherwise we swarm the streets

and slaughter each other?

Yeah, probably.

Well, can't we all agree?

Harry, what do you think?

In our roots, are we all savages?

To an extent.

To what extent is that?

Governments go to war,

people are just the
tools they use to do so.

And governments are made up of people.

Sure, but strip away the sovereign,

whatever form that takes,
religious doctrine,

the economic ladder, racial privilege,

and what other reason do
I have to commit murder?

It's simple, you're hungry, I have food.

That's a bit reductive.

And stripping away all forms of status,

hierarchy, and influence isn't?

Well, it begs the question,

why has every civilization
since the Greeks

imposed the rule of law?

Power.

There's been many types of
government throughout history.

We think of power as the
ability to control people.

But in Zoe's vision of chaos
and anarchy and violence,

no amount of military or police power

would be able to compel
the population to behave.

Civilization is about
agreement amongst ourselves.

It asks us, who are we to each other?

It demands that we give a little
bit of our personal freedom

in order to live in a world
where order is possible.

But it is human nature to
protect our individual interests,

that is the roll of government
to protect the interests

of the collective.

And that's why you are the senator.

Cheers to that.

Cheers.

Melinda, what?

Is she okay?

I hope her family is all right?

She has five kids, it's
a lot to take care of.

More wine?

That was the strangest thing.

Zoe, turn your phone off.

I did.

What's with all the
ringing, is it an Amber Alert?

Is this real?

Senator, we need to turn on the news.

In the living room.

Ballistic missile inbound to D.C,

seek immediate shelter,
this is not a drill.

What does the news say?

Here.

Multiple nuclear missiles
inbound to the east coast.

Impact estimated within two hours.

Harry, I'm on the phone
with Senator Baguley.

You got Baguley?

Okay, I'll message whoever
connects to the D.O.D.

I want the bureau.

Turn that down, please.

Dammit, I got disconnected.

Yeah, me too.

I want Charlie and Williams,

and Lisa, your friend at
Homeland Security now.

Got it.

Amongst the various cities
targeted, New York City,

Boston, and even Washington D.C.

Okay, I got it.

"Speculations contains that
the US missile defense systems"

"were compromised by
organized cyber warfare."

I can't get through to Charlie,

calls are dropping everywhere.

I just got a text
from my friend in Boston

saying their power went out.

"Cyber attacks on
critical infrastructure

"are also being reported,
telecommunications"-

"Authorities recommend
staying in your homes"

"until more information comes in."

This can't be happening.

Someone will stop this, they have to.

Miles, I meant this can't be happening.

This literally can not be happening.

Mutual nuclear destruction

is the older doctrine in the book.

They bomb us, we bomb
them, everyone loses.

It's the only reason the
earth is still intact,

since the advent of the nuclear bomb.

No one would challenge that.

It looks like they have, Harry.

Jesus Christ.

They haven't even
confirmed who fired them.

Who cares where it's coming from?

We are an hour and a half
from nuclear war, Harry.

We're gonna be all right,

all we need to do is just settle down

and wait for more information.

This seems slightly more urgent

than just sit around and wait to me.

-Hey, guys.
-Lisa, read the room,

you aren't helping the
situation right now.

Hey, you should see this.

The footage you are about to see

is extremely graphic.

What you are watching is footage
captured in major cities.

Authorities recommend
to stay in your homes.

No, no, no, no.

That adds a new wrinkle

to the whole savages
running around conversation.

My phone's not working at all.

Mine either.

Same here.

All right, this is gonna
be a rouse or a false alarm.

That does not explain this.

In 1983 the soviets thought we attacked,

20 minutes later,

they realized their
radar had malfunctioned.

That was over 40 years
ago, technology has improved.

In 2018, every cellphone in Hawaii

received an emergency
message almost identical

to the one we got.

So until the head of
the MDA personally calls

and says we're screwed, I'm not worried.

Come on, Miles.

Where are we supposed to go?

We need to find shelter or a bunker

or a basement or something.

Lisa, I'm pretty sure
no one in this room

knows where a nuclear bunker is,

not only that, the entire world

is tearing itself apart out there,

so we need to recognize that
we are in a secure neighborhood

and the safest place is right here.

What are you doing with that?

On the up side though,

if Harry's wrong, don't
you want to see his face

when the world goes up in flames?

Bennett, what do we do?

Well, we have a lot of space,

so feel free to spread out
and do what you gotta do.

We're sorry,

your call can not be
completed at this time,

please hang up and try your call-

Remember Miss Clark in fifth grade?

She asked us what we wanted
to be when we grew up

and I said, I wanted to be president.

Everyone started laughing,

and I started crying,
I was so embarrassed.

You remember?

But then you appeared

and you said that you were sure

that I would be president
someday, and I believed you.

So much so that I made you promise

that you would be there to see it.

I remember.

Communications are completely down.

No phone, no internet.

We'll see how long the power lasts.

Well, might as well
drink the good stuff.

Great.

Open them up.

Yes, Bennett Julius Wilde,

birthday April 2, 1967,

confirmation code 384...

Confirmation code 38492B.

Is this real world?

Yes, I'm here in D.C, at my home

with my wife and four guests.

That's not enough.

Who is on the phone?

I'm gonna need more than that.

Yes.

I understand.

Yes.

Bennett J. Wilde.

I'm Bennett J. Wilde.

Bennett Julius Wilde, and
I approve this message.

-So who was that?
-Bennett, who was that?

All right!

Just give him a sec.

Give him a sec.

Is this real?

The United States Naval
Fleet in the North Atlantic

has been decimated.

Our nuclear missile silos in North Dakota

have been disabled through
coordinated cyber attacks.

The lose of life has
begun and it will grow.

It's real.

So what now?

Continuity of government
protocols have been activated,

the D.O.D will send a helicopter

to take us to a secure location.

It should be here in
a little over an hour.

That's cutting it real close.

They indicated it would keep
us outside the blast radius.

Oh, thank you!

-Are you serious?
-Baby, is this real?

What's the catch, Bennett?

What is it?

What's wrong?

They only take four of us.

Did you tell them that
there was six of us?

I'm sure that there's more
room on that helicopter.

It's not the helicopter,

it's how many they can take in a bunker

or wherever they're taking us.

There's only enough room for four.

Was that a-

No, transformer blew.

We have to figure this out.

Anyone have any proposals?

I'll stay.

Miles.

Yeah, I'll stay behind.

The women should get on,
that's what should happen.

That's right.

No, no, I'm
not leaving without you.

Do we flip a coin?

I'm not leaving my survival

up to a game of heads or tails.

We'll draw straws.

Not what I meant.

We need to consider the facts.

The helicopter is coming
because of Bennett's position.

Without him, no ride.

That leaves three seats.

What experience are
people bringing with them

to help fix things?

Isn't it two seats, what about Regina?

Thank you, Lisa.

That would've been nice to
have heard from my husband.

Everyone deserves to be heard.

Man of the people.

Hold on, so you want
everyone to prove their worth

to post-apocalyptic America?

A post-apocalyptic world,

if that's how you want to put it.

Screw it, get the straws
or the coin or whatever.

It may be the only fair way.

Fair?

Do any of you know what happens
when a nuclear warhead hits?

Those in the immediate blast
radius vaporize instantly.

Just beyond that, the flash blinds you,

takes your skin clean off.

Hundreds of miles away,

the nuclear fallout will still reach you.

Guaranteeing some form of eventual cancer.

Combine three or four
of those bombs together

and you'll kick up enough radioactive dust

to black out the sun,

forcing whoever survives into a hole

to figure out what to do next.

So all I'm saying is if this is real,

if I'm stuck in a bunker somewhere,

I wanna be with the people
most likely to rebuild

whatever's left of this world.

Forgive me if I'm not sentimental.

You're saying you don't
need a grade school teacher,

is that it?

-Miles, he's not saying that.
-Is that it?

I am not not saying that.

Fuck you, Harry.

Don't speak that way in my house.

Okay, this is crazy.

Bennett, where's that phone?

It won't work, it only
accepts incoming calls.

They wanna reach us,
they'll call, otherwise-

I know one thing's for sure,

I've had more than enough
of you government type.

Based on your logic, we have a surplus,

we'll probably lose one or two of you?

No?

Just say it.

Remind me exactly where
would you be right now

if it weren't for us government types?

Harry.

What's that supposed to mean?

Nothing, forget it.

No.

No, go on.

Zoe, stop.

No, you want them to know?

Fine.

Two weeks ago I got a DUI

and Bennett pulled some
strings to get me off.

There it is.

Let's all factor that into
the blood sacrifice, shall we?

You did what?

And you think I'm a liability to him?

Oh, and by the way, thanks, Bennett.

This is ridiculous, we're
acting like animals right now.

What do you suggest we do, Regina?

Maybe we've earned this.

Maybe we actual deserve it.

Are you trying to go all
Sodom and Gomorrah on us?

When I was a girl, my father said to me,

he that repenteth shall be saved,

and he that repenteth not shall be damned.

When is the last time that any
of us asked for forgiveness?

Well, for starters, I'm not a he,

so I think we're all good there.

Fine.

If it isn't prayer,

what is it exactly that
you suggest we do, Lisa?

Harry is right.

Bennett is the one that got elected,

he is the only reason we have
a chance at survival now.

He should be the one that chooses.

Heavy is the head that wears
the crown, right, Harry?

Agreed.

No, no, no, this does not feel right.

Bennett, this seems bigger
than us, bigger than you.

This doesn't seem like
it's our choice to make.

This should be left up to God.

Unfortunately, God isn't here.

You want me to choose?

I'll choose.

We are a ways down the list.

There are protocols in place,

all of them priority based.

The fact that we aren't getting picked up

'til that close to impact,

means we aren't near the top.

What's the point?

Why would it matter if we stayed?

What is wrong with you?

It's the truth, Zo,

some people are more
important than others.

That wasn't what I was talking about.

What are you doing?

You clearly don't want
me on the helicopter,

so I might as well take
my chances out there.

You're being dramatic, Zoe.

I have an idea,

why don't I go in there and
tell them all your secrets,

all the shit you're ashamed of.

I wasn't the one to tell
them about the DUI, you were.

Somebody has to choose.

You didn't think that
that was a conversation

worth involving me in?

No, why would you?

I have to hear about you
expunging criminal records

from a complete stranger?

Not every decision I make
has to be run through you.

I hold the office, you don't.

Cut the politic bullshit.

You married a politician.

I married a decent man.

We were in love, Bennett,

and I knew that there would be sacrifices

and bumps along the way,

but now what have we come to?

Can you even tell me why
you think I'm worth saving?

I made a mistake,

and you know why I was
so messed up that night.

Don't try and guilt trip me.

You could have paid for his treatment,

you just chose not to.

Don't talk about him like he's a victim.

You talk about sacrifice.

You didn't sacrifice anything.

You didn't earn your money.

Again with that?

You have no clue what it
is when I have to perform.

You're a broken record.

I have to walk on egg shells
all the time around you,

because God forbid I fuck up one time,

you're gonna be there,

ready to pull the rug out from under me.

Do you have any idea how it feels

to find your father
passed out in the gutter

covered in snow?

I sat beside him while he
had his stomach pumped, Zoe.

I was eight.

See, you don't remember that shit.

But I'm sure it was tough for you too,

all those birthday cards,
sober phone calls every Sunday.

I see that lighter of
his you carry around.

I took him to rehab four
times, did you know that?

You didn't tell me that.

No, 'cause I was ashamed.

'Cause I couldn't fix him.

'Cause I wasn't enough
to make him wanna change.

It wasn't your fault.

The last time I took him
to rehab he made it one day

and that's when it hit me like a brick,

he's never gonna change, Zoe.

You need to move on.

I can't.

Why not?

'Cause he's our dad.

Do you resent me?

Yes.

I'm just a fucking blank check to you.

Did you wanna play senator?

You front the money, so you
get to make the decisions?

That is not what I am talking about.

Who should we leave behind, huh?

You tell me now and I'll do it.

Who should we leave behind?

Who should die?

Harry, Lisa, me?

Tell me, Regina.

Stop it!

Who should I kill?

It's not so easy, is it?

Four people are getting
on that helicopter.

All I can think about
are the two who aren't.

That's a burden I have to bear.

So you can clutch your cross
and keep your head held high,

but the decision still has to be made.

And I'm sorry if you don't approve of it,

that's just too damn bad.

I know Bennett better than anyone.

He's not gonna leave us behind.

I bet she's worth more
than I make in a year.

Were able to make the call?

I will get us out of this, I promise.

Just trust me.

We'll be together at the end of this.

What?

So much for CNN.

You know what I think?

I think you're afraid,

because you know deep down that
he's not going to pick you,

that he was never going to pick you,

and that ultimately, you
were just not good enough.

If this is happening,

you have less than an hour left,

which means the more you say

the less your words are worth.

I suggest you start
saying something of value.

If I walked around with the
level of supreme arrogance

that you do, I would've
been blacklisted years ago.

Because you're a woman?

Fuck you.

It wouldn't be the first
time you used that strategy

to get ahead, now would it?

Don't be coy.

Everybody knows...

Oh!

Are you crazy?

Jesus!

Oh my god!

What happened?

What's going on?

It's adult time right now, Miles.

Shut up, Harry!

Why do you still care what he says?

Don't tell me what to care about.

Miles, I am so-

I understand that being
a fourth grade teacher

might not be on the list
of most powerful positions

in the world-

What does that have to do-

And it doesn't warrant
a spot on the helicopter

on the day of the apocalypse,

but I'm damn proud of what I do.

This world is mean,
conniving, manipulative,

but it doesn't have to be that way.

Miles, baby, just breathe, okay?

You feel warm, I'm gonna
get you some aspirin, okay?

Dear Lord, I pray for
your divine intervention,

to have your will be done.

You and only you have the power.

Cleanse us of our sins and our trespasses

and deliver us-

Oh, I'm sorry, I was
looking for aspirin.

They're in the box.

My parents were religious,

I always struggled with the idea of faith.

I guess I found all of it hollow.

I'm sorry it's hard for you
to believe in something, Lisa.

It's ironic, the religious
prize conviction in themselves

but scorn it in those who don't conform.

Why are you so quick to criticize?

The world is not as black
and white as how you see it.

You don't always have
to be on the offensive.

Yes, I do, because if I'm
not, I'm too weak, too soft,

I'm not qualified, so to do what I do,

I don't have a choice.

Don't you?

There are plenty of things

women are perfectly qualified for.

Well, not everybody is born

with all of God's blessing, unfortunately.

You don't know my life, don't pretend to.

Did you sleep with my husband?

All those days on the campaign trail,

the late nights at the office,

a girl like you who
does what she has to do

to even be in this position.

Or maybe I'm a woman who's
just really good at her job.

Is anyone in there?

Hello?

Is anybody there?

Hey, I'm with the
Washington PD, he's injured,

he's bleeding bad and he needs help.

They should stay outside,

it's too dangerous to
let them in right now.

I completely agree.

Hello, are you listening to me?

I am a cop, you need to let me in.

I don't know about this.

He needs a doctor right now.

No, Zoe, no!

No.

His neck, it won't stop bleeding,

and he's hurt himself on the side as well.

Easy, easy, easy.

What happened?

Car crash.

There's something lodged
in his neck, metal or glass.

We need towels for gauze,

a sewing kit, rubbing alcohol,

and some duct tape, if you have it.

I thought you were a cop.

There's something wrong with this guy.

Well, fix it.

What's his name?

Hey, what's his name?

Tyler.

Tyler, can you hear me?

If you can hear me, I
need to enter your neck

to remove some shrapnel.

I know, I'm sorry, but it's gonna hurt.

The wound's not big enough.

I need to make an incision to widen it.

What, no, absolutely not.

You're not performing
surgery on a stranger.

It's not surgery.

Whatever, it doesn't matter.

It does matter.

I need a knife, Regina.

The sharpest one you have.

Regina, get me a knife!

He's gone.

Why don't we get you cleaned up?

Come with me.

He needs to leave.

He just watched his friend die.

There's something wrong with that guy.

He shouldn't be here.

We don't need to complicate things

any more than they already are.

What are you doing?

You have a beautiful home.

You shouldn't be in here.

Beautiful house.

Does it make you feel safe?

Uh-uh, shh.

Let's give him the keys to a car

and just get him out of here.

You think he's just gonna leave?

I don't know-

Police, nobody move.

Nobody move.

I was just in a car accident,

they stole my badge and gun.

Are you alone?

You gotta watch who you let in here.

There's some crazy shit
going on right now.

Hey, put that gun down!

Put it down!

Or what, Senator?

Be careful.

Hey, put down the gun.

Back up.

Okay, come on.

Get over there.

Come on.

Ladies, on the ground, on your bellies.

Now!

On the ground, face down.

Big boy, come here where I can see you.

Good boy.

Good boy.

Okay, you can go over there and join them.

Go on.

You politicians, you think you're safe

in your little castle?

You think you're not like the rest of us?

It's dangerous out there.

I make the rules now.

There's no police officers anymore.

There's no laws, okay?

No, we're free.

Hey, hey.

Get up.

Get up.

Get up.

Take your clothes off.

Don't you-

Shut the fuck up!

Fuck you.

You do what I want, or I will kill him.

I will put a hole in his face.

Come on.

Harry!

Miles.

No, Miles!

Miles, stop, please.

Miles!

Please, stop!

Stop!

Come here.

It's over.

It's over.

It's over.

Come on, let's go.

We need to call 911.

I thought you said you were a cop.

I am.

They wrecked into my car and
they took my gun and badge.

Number 870.

It's dead.

What is this?

Ballistic missile.

Is this real?

In about 45 minutes, the
bombs will start to drop.

You can't be serious, that's crazy.

It's not possible.

I was on a hike, my
phone didn't get service.

Yeah, nobody's got service.

They managed to take out
critical infrastructure as well.

You okay?

Are you?

You're weak.

Yeah.

Nice shooting.

Yeah, I was stationed at some embassies,

it was very hostile territory,

firearm training was
highly recommended, so.

How you feel?

I'd do it again.

It's something to consider.

Hey.

You did what you could.

Thought I would go on a nice hike today,

quiet, peaceful even.

The Fourth of July, after all.

She's mad at me right now.

Sent them both to stay with
their grandma in Arizona

for a holiday.

Mommy had to work.

She said, "You work too much."

Then she told me she hated me.

She's just a kid.

She didn't mean it.

Yeah.

Baby, I need you to
hold it together, okay?

Can you do that for me?

There was nothing I could do for you.

I know, baby.

It's okay.

Lisa, they're never gonna
let me on that helicopter.

Listen to me, I'm not
leaving without you.

I just need you to stay in
here and keep calm, okay?

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

Two weeks ago, I had a rough night

and got on the highway,

crashed and this woman
stopped to see if I was okay,

but it was dark, so when
she got out of the car,

this other driver didn't see her,

she's in a coma now.

A vegetable just waiting
to die, and it's my fault.

I keep thinking about her family.

Their last words before she
got into the car that night.

Were they able to say goodbye?

Probably not.

But you never know.

Thanks.

Sure.

Bennett!

What?

I need to know who you're taking.

I haven't decided yet.

Is it me or is it Harry,
who's staying behind?

Well, logic says it
should be both of you.

No, I already told you I'm
not leaving without Miles.

He's unwell.

And based on present circumstance,

it doesn't look like that's
gonna change any time soon.

He's cracking like an egg.

Shut up, Harry!

He's a liability.

I don't care.

I'm not leaving him behind.

If you wanna say, by all means.

I have done everything for you.

I've lied, sacrificed,
threatened whatever I had to,

to get you where you wanted to be.

I have given you my life,

so I am asking you, imploring
you to take us with you.

And I will be just as
loyal and as diligent

and as brutal as I have ever been.

Rousing.

And you?

Excuse me?

Your turn.

Have I not done enough?

Harry, you have to help him.

He'll never be able to choose on his own.

Don't worry, Regina,
you're still on the list.

I would rather burn
here than grovel to you.

You wanna know why you
should leave Lisa behind?

Why she'd be useless in the apocalypse?

Her knowledge of nuclear
fallout is poultry at best.

She's never so much as gone camping,

which means hunting,
gathering, reading a compass,

all other practical skills are out,

but worst of all,

her husband is the most
obvious weakest link.

And she wants to drag him along?

And she says she's brutal?

So you'd leave your sister
behind then, if you had to?

Hi, I'm sorry.

Can I use your bathroom?

Down the hall, to the right.

You know, I voted for you.

Oh, yeah?

Thank you.

You didn't tell her, did you?

No, but we're going to, aren't we?

Just-

We are gonna tell her.

What purpose would that serve?

There's already not enough
room, why get her hopes up?

She has a family.

For what it's worth,

I haven't decided who gets to go yet.

Well, I didn't vote for you, asshole,

so feel free to factor that one in.

Zoe, you need to calm down.

Why?

Odds are we have 30 minutes left to live,

why can't I say whatever the hell I want?

You don't
know what, please, just-

Desperate people are
capable of anything.

What are you gonna
do, tie me up, kill me?

How far will you go?

'Cause you shot that guy pretty quick.

Yeah, we all have
some blood on our hands.

Either you all tell her or I will.

Tell me what?

Nothing.

Then why are you all being so quiet?

Zoe, what's going on?

There's a helicopter
coming to take us to safety.

Regina!

In less than half an hour.

It can only take four of us.

We didn't feel it was
right to get your hopes up.

Half of us are getting
left behind as it is.

It's not personal.

I know that
you all don't know me,

but I have two daughters waiting for me

back in Arizona, where it could be safe.

If there's any chance that
I could see them again-

This has nothing
to do with your daughters.

This has everything
to do with my daughters.

You might be able to find
shelter if you leave right now.

Don't patronize me.

Please.

My rug.

My rug.

You must mind your mess.

Miles!

Miles!

Oh, God.

Miles, can you hear me?

Miles!

Miles!

No.

No.

What could you possibly
want to say to me right now?

I'm sorry.

What?

She's scared, Bennett, we all are.

Oh my God.

I'm gonna get you some new clothes.

What are you doing that for?

If you let these stains sit any longer,

it'll be impossible to get out.

That rug is gonna be destroyed,

just like the rest of this place.

Maybe.

And you'll be on your way

to some underground
safe house or whatever.

If that is he will.

Everybody is walking around
acting like my husband

has all the power.

Like he's God.

But the truth is, he's not in control.

None of us are.

Is that so?

You really think that our
actions, they don't matter?

Just think, is there anything
that you could do right now

to see your children?

Nothing.

If you think that then why
are you cleaning this damn rug?

For the same reason
that you're gonna try

to get on that helicopter,

it feels good to pretend.

Don't tell me what to care about!

I love you.

Lisa, I brought you some clean clothes.

What are you doing?

Why are you acting like
you haven't seen me naked?

I thought we agreed not to
talk about that ever again.

A lot has changed.

I got you here, Bennett,

and now there's going to be a
completely new power dynamic.

Money doesn't matter anymore.

You don't love her.

You don't need her.

So leave her behind.

Take me.

I want what you have.

I wanna know what it feels like.

Know what feels?

Power.

But now I know what power
really is, perception.

And it can crumble at any minute.

Hey, why are you trying to
so hard to get left behind?

What I did, I don't deserve-

Hey.

Hey!

It wasn't your fault.

If it was your decision,
would you save me?

It's not my decision,
so that's irrelevant.

It's not irrelevant to me.

How could you ask me that?

If it weren't for me, you'd be
sitting in a cell right now.

So you also need a thank you?

Well, thank you for being
so emotionally available

all these years.

And you know what, thank
you for worrying enough

about your political
career to slog on down

and bail me out of jail.

Oh, come on.

We're all messed up, Harry,
but I still love you and Dad.

Wish I felt the same from you.

Bennett, it's time!

We have less
than 15 minutes left.

I think I need another drink.

Stop it!

Make your choice and be
done with it already.

Maybe I'll leave you all behind.

Be a man for once.

You know what, Regina, stop it.

I am free of you, I don't need your money,

I don't need your God.

In the new world, you don't own me.

You made your point,
Bennett, now get on with it.

Oh, you still think
it's all about perception.

Well, maybe power is fleeting,

but imagine what I can do
while I still have some.

How about you, huh?

Have you made a decision?

You're gonna leave your sister behind?

Why does it matter to you?

Oh, come on.

This is your sister.

Can you leave your little
sister behind, huh?

Can you?

Can you leave your sister?

Your sweet sister, can you
leave your sister behind,

who put a woman in the hospital

because Daddy was upsetting her

and she got loaded, but she's your sister.

Can you leave her behind,
that's the question,

can you leave her behind?

No.

No!

Good, good, good.

I mean, she's the only
one with medical training,

that ought to come in handy.

I'm sorry, Zoe, I'm so sorry.

You're right, there are too
many government types around.

Don't worry, I'm on it.

All right, here it is.

All right, you two, no shit, last chance,

persuade me, right now.

Her husband killed
himself right out there.

She's clearly unstable.

You leave him out of this, Harry.

She's soft, easily perturbed.

She can't even avoid an obvious goad.

And you're just trying
to fill your daddy void

by getting his approval.

Don't be coy, everybody knows.

Leave both of them behind.

Oh my fucking God.

I'm a cop, I can protect you.

What can they really do?

Fuck you!

I have two good
reasons to fight for you,

Bianca and Isabella.

And they're gonna grow
up without a mother.

Is that what you want?

-No, no, no.
-You're a good man.

I know that you are,
that's why I voted for you.

I can't look at that right now.

No, you can make it right.

Yes, Bennett J. Wilde, April 2, 1967,

confirmation code 4...

Shit!

Getting on that helicopter

doesn't mean you're gonna see your girls.

Shut up!

The government will keep you in a bunker

until they can sort out
what the world looks like

and it won't be much.

I didn't ask for your opinions.

Confirmation 384-

And that could be months, maybe years.

Nuclear winter will rack
the globe, starvation,

radiation poisoning,
You think you can scare me?

Marauding.

-You know what's scary?
-I'm a mama bear,

I'll do whatever it takes.

Is while you're stuck
in a bunker somewhere,

you're gonna be thinking about your girls,

out there, alone in the world.

Wondering if they're even alive.

Don't you dare!

Confirm received.

Cynthia, trust us.

The least painful
way out of this for you

is right through that door.

I'll take me chances.

Bring me with you.

I'm sorry, but I can't.

That wasn't a request.

I don't think you understand,

I can't take you with me.

Whoa!

I'm getting on that chopper.

Cynthia, calm down.

What the hell are you doing?

I don't wanna use this.

Don't make me.

Cynthia, you're not thinking straight.

If you shoot Bennett-

Don't tell me what to do, please!

I don't even know you.

I don't know any of you.

I wanna hear it from you.

You don't understand.

You're gonna take me, yeah?

Whoa!

Goddamn it!

Make your choice or I will.

You don't have to do this.

Feels good to pretend, doesn't it?

Son of a bitch, please stop.

Please!

The wife can come, that
means there's no room for you.

Jesus Christ.

Make your choice.

-Yes or no?
-No, no, don't do it.

Your choice.

You don't understand.

One more has to go.

You don't understand!

We should've left you outside to burn.

Yes or no.

No one is coming!

What are you talking about?

No one is coming!

That was the D.O.D, the
chopper's not coming.

I didn't make it, I wasn't
high enough on the list.

Bullshit.

He said that was a possibility.

No!

Goddamn it!

Wait, what are you doing?

He said the helicopter's not coming.

There's no more.

He's lying.

Can't you tell?

He's trying to con me into leaving.

Who heard that call?

Cynthia.

Get out of my way.

Cynthia, just put the gun down.

Move!

I'll leave.

You don't need to shoot him, I'll leave.

You say the helicopter's coming,

fine, I'll go and there
will only be four people,

just don't hurt him.

Better start running.

And now we wait.

Sit down.

You, over there, you too.

You too, buddy.

My dress.

My dress.

It's not coming.

There's still time.

Say you're
right, even if it comes,

you just killed a political official.

You really think they'll let you on?

Yeah, I do.

You're all gonna vouch for me.

Isn't that right?

Wash me of my sins.

We understand
you were just trying

to get back to your
family, we understand that.

-Sit down!
-This is all part

of his plan.

Out of our hands.

Sit down, I said, sit down.

It's out of our hands now.

I said sit down.

Regina, what are you doing?

You!

Now will I shortly pour
out my fury upon thee,

my anger upon thee!

I will judge thee for thine ways

and I will reconveyance
thee of thine abominations.

We are abominations.

-We need to cleanse ourselves.
-I won't ask you again.

I won't ask you again.

Shoot her.

What?

Shoot her.

I'm so sorry.

She tried to kill you,
she tried to kill us.

Shoot her!

What makes you think
she won't try it again?

She's gonna die any
minute, all of us are.

You stood right over there

and you told me you'd
do whatever it takes.

Whatever it takes.

You shot someone in cold blood,

you said you'd do it again.

Now let's go, shoot her, right now.

Please, no, don't do this.

You wanna be my number two?

Huh, you wanna be my number two?

I can't!

I can't.

Yes, you can.

Shoot her!

Impurities.

-We must cleanse.
-Impurities.

We're savages.

Hear that?

Savages.

Now you fucking shoot her!

Wash me, cleanse me!

Only you have the power, cleanse us.

You have the power.

Only you have the power,

cleanse us and our trespasses.

Please.

Bianca, Isabella.

She deserves it.

Go on, Harry, make me proud.

Fuck you.

♪ Dum dum, deedle dum dum,
deedle dum dum, deedle dum dum ♪

♪ There was a turtle by the name of Bert ♪

♪ And Bert the Turtle was very alert ♪

♪ When danger threatened
him, he never got hurt ♪

♪ He knew just what to do ♪

♪ He'd duck and cover ♪

♪ Duck and cover ♪

♪ He did what we all must learn to do ♪

♪ You, and you, and you, and you ♪

♪ Duck and cover ♪

Be sure and remember

what Bert the Turtle just did, friends,

because every one of us must
remember to do the same thing,

duck and cover.

This is an official civil defense film

produced in cooperation

with the Federal Civil
Defense Administration

and in consultation with
the safety commission

of the National Education Association.

Hey, Bert, come on out

and meet all these nice people, please.

Oh, all right, we really can't blame you.

You see, Bert is a very,
very careful fellow.

When there's danger,

this is the way he keeps from being hurt.

We all know the atomic
bomb is very dangerous.

We think that most of the
time we will be warned

before the bomb explodes,

so there will be time for
us to get into our homes,

schools, or some other safe place.

You may be in your school yard playing

when the signal comes.

That signal means to stop
whatever you're doing

and get to the nearest safe place fast.

Now you and I don't have
shells to crawl into

like Bert the Turtle,

so we have to cover up in our own way.

First, you duck, and then you cover.

There's a bright flash,
brighter than the sun,

brighter than anything you've ever seen.

It is such a big explosion,

it can smash in buildings,
and knock sign boards over,

and break windows all over town.

But if you duck and cover, like Bert,

you'll be much safer.

Our civil defense workers,
our men in uniform

will do everything they can to warn us

before enemy planes can
bring a bomb near us.

If there is a warning,

you will hear it before the bomb explodes,

but sometimes, and this
is very, very important,

sometimes the bomb might
explode without any warning.

Then the first we would know about it

would be the flash,

that means duck and cover
fast, wherever you are.

Duck and cover underneath
a table, or desk,
