The End Is Extremely **** Nigh

We've got enough food, Jim.

Jim

We don't have any cheeseburgers. [to himself] Like going on holiday with your ****in' aunt...

What's up?

Jim

Nothing. Got a headache.

Bad?

Jim

Yeah, it's pretty bad.

Well, why didn't you say anything before?

Jim

Well, because I didn't think you'd give a shit.

I promised them women.

Jim

What?

Eight days ago, I found Jones with his gun in his mouth. He said he was going to kill himself because there was no future. What could I say to him? We fight off the infected or we wait until they starve to death... and then what? What do nine men do except wait to die themselves? I moved us from the blockade, and I set the radio broadcasting, and I promised them women. Because women mean a future.

Researcher
[A researcher tries to dissuade animal-rights activists from releasing his chimpanzees.]

The chimps have been infected. They're highly contagious. They've been given an inhibitor.

Activist

Infected with what?

Researcher

In order to cure, you must first understand...

Activist

Infected with WHAT?

Researcher

Rage.

Jim
[After Frank has been killed, referring to Hannah.]

How is she?

[bitter chuckle]

Well, she's lost her dad, Jim. That's how she is.

Jim
[Everyone has trouble sleeping — except Selena, already fast asleep.] [shaking Selena's shoulder]

Hey, Selena!

[startles up, knife in hand]

What? What is it?

Jim

How did you get to sleep?

[Facing rape and brutalization from the soliders, Selena is trying to give Hannah some pills]

Okay, you're gonna eat these, Hannah, okay? Come on, you eat these. Eat these.

Are you trying to kill me?

No, sweetheart. I'm making you not care.

[Hannah, seeing Jim and Selena in a clinch, rushes in and breaks a bottle on Jim's head.]

Hannah! It's okay. He's not infected.

But I thought he was biting you.

Jim

I was kissing her! Are you stoned?

It's a long story.

Jim
[Jim wants to go and look for his parents.]

Look, I have to find them. They live in Deptford. I can walk it, okay?

What, you'll go and come back, yeah?

Jim

Yes!

You won't! No one ever comes back.

So, lesson one: you never go anywhere alone unless you've got no choice. Lesson two: only travel during daylight unless you've got no choice. We'll take you tomorrow. We'll all go and find your dead parents together, okay?

[Jim's group come across the military barricade and find it completely abandoned.]

Frank. Frank.

We have to go?

Yeah.

GO **** WHERE?!

Jim
[Selena and Jim are staying at the flat of an uninfected father and daughter.]

So, what do you make of them?

Well, they're desperate. Probably need us more than we need them.

Jim

I think they're good people.

Good people?

Jim

Yeah.

Well, that's nice. but you should be more concerned about whether or not they're gonna slow you down.

Jim

Right. Because if they slowed you down —

I'd leave them behind.

Jim

In a heartbeat.

Yeah.

Jim

I wouldn't.

Then you're gonna wind up getting yourself killed.

Jim
[Selena is crying.]

Hey, don't do that. Look, Hannah is what Frank said she is. She's tough and she's strong. And she'll cope, just like I'll cope and just like you'll cope.

I don't want her to have to **** cope! I want her to be okay.

Jim
[Shortly after Selena has killed the newly infected Mark.]

How did you know? I mean, how did you know he was infected?

The blood.

Jim

Yeah... but there was blood everywhere. It was on me, it was on you —

Look, I didn't know he was infected, okay? He knew. I could see it in his face. Look, if someone gets infected you've got between ten and twenty seconds to kill them. It might be your brother or your sister or your oldest friend. It makes no difference. And just so you know where you stand — if it happens to you, I'll do it in a heartbeat.

[The group has been taken in by the soldiers responsible for the radio transmission.]

So, you heard our broadcast.

Jim

Yeah, we did.

We must be a disappointment. You were hoping for a full brigade. An army base, with helicopters and a field hospital.

Jim

I was just, uh, hoping for —

"The answer to infection."

Jim

Yeah.

Well, as I said before, it's here... though it may not be quite what you imagined.

Jim

Just feel very lucky to have found you.

You were lucky. The fire drove hundreds of infected out of Manchester. The surrounding area is teeming with them. But don't worry- you're quite safe here.
