In the tunnels
Junior: That was amazing. Just everything felt so heightened. It was like…
Christine: Being back in the other world?
Junior: What is that?
Christine: Oxytocin. Our bodies produce it naturally during sex. Only this is about a thousand times stronger.
Junior kisses Christine.
Christine: Can I count on you? I need you to do everything I ask without question.
Junior: I know how to follow orders.
Christine: Everything that I do that you and I do will be for the good of the group.
Junior: Everything?
On a way
Big Jim: There it is. That's it. What? What's wrong, boy? Hey, what's wrong? What's wrong, you got you got something in your paw, there?
Julia: Never seen you be so friendly to another creature. What's his name?
Big Jim: I call him Indy. You like that, don't you, boy?
Julia: You sure this footage is worth risking our lives for? That Aktaion guy had a gun to your back last night.
Big Jim: Trust me, if what's on that video doesn't open your pretty boy's eyes about Christine, nothing will.
Julia: Why is Aktaion trying to kill you?
Big Jim: Because I got tired of being their guinea pig. But this is much bigger than that. Somebody's infected all of Chester's Mill.
Julia: The town's infected? With what?
Big Jim: Whatever got into Christine when she dug that damn egg up. When I show the town what it is, they're gonna come to their senses and kick her ass out of Chester's Mill.
The camera is not here.
Big Jim: Aktaion must have followed me.
Julia: Do you ever tell the truth? How do I even know there was a camera in there?
Big Jim: Listen: you came out here to find me, not the other way around. So you can either paddle the hell out of here right now or you can shut up and help me get that camera back.
Eva’s hotel room
Eva: I was hoping that was you.
Barbie: Thank you.
Eva: So what'd Julia say, anyway? To make you punch the door like that?
Barbie: It doesn't matter.
Eva: Get it off your chest. You'll feel better.
Barbie: Uh yeah, she's making herself crazy with conspiracy theories. She-She thinks that you and Christine are lying about who you are… So tell me she's wrong… Eva. Answer me.
Eva: I can't, I…
Barbie: Why not?
Eva: Because I-I can't.
Barbie: Look, I-I can't be with someone who's not gonna talk with me.
At the camp
Hunter: Next. Step up. Come and get it… Joe, Norrie… Bet you guys are hungry.
Norrie: What even is that? It smells like burning hair.
Hunter: Cattle feed. Tastes better than it smells.
Norrie: I'd prefer burning hair.
Joe: Looks like a lot of work.
Hunter: Bunch of us took shifts sorting, soaking, grinding. We were up all night, but it would've taken a week otherwise.
Norrie: It's amazing what people can do when they work together.
Hunter: Hey, Norrie, you don't mind taking over for me, do you? I need a break.
Norrie: Uh I promised Joe I would help him do something this morning.
Joe: Yeah, yeah, I asked her to give me a hand with some solar panels near my house. Town needs power, right?
Norrie: Christine asked us to get electricity back up as soon as possible.
Hunter: Well, you can't argue with Christine.
Abby’s house
Abby: Morning.
Sam: Morning. How are you?
Abby: Aside from this massive headache much better. Thanks for doing everything that you did.
Sam: You want to do everything again later?
Abby: Sneaking out, are you? Feeling the Town Hall pull.
Sam: I got to check in. Make sure the place is still standing. Christine's counting on me to lead the support group.
Abby: Oh.
Sam: Back in a few hours?
Abby: Yeah. You want to check out that secret stash of booze in the crawl space at Town Hall?
Christine’s office
Christine: The dome's energy supply is beginning to fail. When Jim Rennie destroyed the egg, he compromised our power source. One amethyst died this morning and a second one is losing power, which is causing the amniotic fluid in the cavern to dry up. It's only a matter of time before the dome begins to calcify. If the kinship can't come together, we will all suffocate… Barbie. Come on in, hon. Have a seat.
Barbie: Who the hell are you?
Big noise
Man: Oh, my God!
Man 2: The ceiling's caved in!
Girl : Oh, my God!
Man: We need help!
Peter: Hey, hey, come here, get that end.
Barbie: All right Okay, all right, count of three, we're gonna lift up. I want you to slide him out, all right? One, two, three!
Peter: All right, Dale.
Barbie: Put 'em down.
Peter: Christine. This is your fault.
Hallway
Barbie: I want to finish this conversation.
Christine: We will. We've got more important things to deal with right now. You'll need to inspect the ceiling, patch up what you can so we can move people in tonight.
Peter: Don't listen to her. She doesn't know her ass from her elbow. Me, I've been a carpenter since high school.
Barbie: All right. So what do you think we should do?
Peter: Unless you rip out the rest of the ceiling you're looking at another collapse.
Christine: Actually, Pete, I need you to clear the dust and debris from all the beds, make sure the space is habitable for move-in tonight.
Peter: Lady, you lost the right to tell me what to do when you let Junior Rennie take his toy hammer to that column. This is on you!
Barbie: All right, all right. Hey, hey we don't need to make a scene, all right?
Christine: I want that man out of this building.
Barbie: I got this, Christine.
Christine: He's a menace.
Barbie: I said I've got this.
Room
Barbie: Hey, man. Look, no hard feelings, all right? It was just starting to get a little tense there. How about we do this: how about you walk me through what happened with that column and then we can figure out step two together.
Peter: All right.
Barbie: All right.
Big Jim is spying
Big Jim: There you go. One more step.
Explosion
Men: Go, go, go! Move! Go! Go! Go! Go, go!
Big Jim: You're gonna need more than a sling for that one, sucka. Come here. Okay, Indy Indy, stay. Stay. Good boy.
On the grass
Norrie: Maybe we can survive this Town Hall weirdness. I'll look after you if you look after me.
Joe: I plan on doing that anyway.
Norrie: Okay, so repeat after me. I Joe McAlister do solemnly swear to look out for Norrie Calvert-Hill.
Joe: All right. I Joe McAlister do solemnly swear to look out for Norrie Calvert-Hill.
Norrie: To keep the freaks with glazed eyes away…
Joe: Oh, come on. Fine. Yeah, to keep the freaks with glazed eyes away.
Norrie: And to kill her if she ever becomes one of them herself.
Joe: I'm not gonna let that happen. Okay? Screw you for ruining a perfect day.
Norrie: I love you.
Joe: What did you just say?
Norrie: Nothing.
Joe: You just said that you love me.
Norrie: No, I didn't.
Joe: Yes, you did.
Town Hall
Junior: Where have you been?
Sam: What happened?
Junior: I knocked out a column. I didn't know it was load-bearing. Christine backed me up.
Sam: What the hell does she know about construction?
Junior: I said it was my fault. Look, there's a lot of hurt people in there. Christine wants you to go in and help out.
At the camp
Christine: Eva. Barbie is suspicious. What did you say to him?
Eva: I didn't say anything. Remind me again why we're lying to everyone.
Christine: I'm doing this for your own good; you're not ready.
Eva: For what? Know what? Forget it. I'm tired of lying. I want Dale to know who I am.
Christine: We had an agreement.
Eva: Not anymore.
Christine: Okay, you're right. Maybe it is time you know the truth. Let's meet at the cavern this afternoon when things settle down around here. That's where the answers are.
Barbie: Look, she's got her areas of expertise.
Peter: I'm telling you, Christine's pulling the wool over people's eyes. I know a fobbit when I see one.
Barbie: Fobbit? I haven't heard anybody use that term since Afghanistan. Did you serve?
Peter: Yeah. Marines.
Barbie: Yeah?
Peter: You?
Barbie: Yeah. Army. Was, uh, Fifth Group, Special Forces.
Peter: Worked my way up from combat engineer to EOD. Got a chance to put my construction skills to use.
Barbie: Explosive Ordinance Disposal. Brave cat.
Peter: Nothing decimates humanity like a few wires and a cell phone.
Barbie: Had to be a tight operation.
Peter: Dumb broad like Christine would've gotten us killed inside a week.
Julia enters in the house. She finds the camera.
Julia: Oh, thank God… No. Alaska? What the?
Marston: Put your hands up and move away from the computer. The other way.
Julia: You can test my blood. I'm not infected. I don't have what you're looking for.
Big Jim: Put it down. I said put it down! Where's the camera, Doc?
Marston: The file was damaged during download.
Big Jim: Prove it.
Christine: According to the dark flight calculations of the meteoroid and magnetometer readings…
Big Jim: That's Christine. Finding the egg.
Marston: Where is it, Mr. Rennie?
Big Jim: Let me tell you something about being a car salesman, Doc. If you want something you got to be willing to trade. Do you want that egg? You better give us some answers.
Marston: What would you like to know?
Julia: What happened in Alaska?
Town hall
Peter: You know, I trusted the guys on those missions more than I've ever trusted anyone before.
Barbie: You know, people on the outside, they don't hold themselves to that same standard, you know?
Peter: No kidding. I come home from my third tour, I find my tramp of a wife banging an old buddy of mine.
Barbie: Oh, man, that's just brutal.
Peter: The crazy part is, in the alternate reality I had her back. Then I wake up in a cocoon, realize she's still out there banging my friend and I'm stuck in here. With nothing.
Barbie: I wouldn't sweat it. You'll find your place.
Peter: Not if the queen has anything to say about it.
Barbie: So I'll back you up.
Peter: Yeah?
Barbie: Yeah, Christine's done calling the shots around here.
Room
Christine: He's here… Have you been drinking?
Sam: I had a nip last night. So what?
Christine: Come here. Selfish decisions have an effect on the group. If you'd been on time this morning, people wouldn't have been standing around - when the ceiling collapsed.
Sam: The ceiling didn't collapse because I stayed in bed an extra hour. You're the one who told Junior to knock the column down.
Christine: What happened to the Sam I know, the one that I worked so hard to get back on track?
Sam: That wasn't me. This is me. The town drunk.
Christine: I won't let you throw away everything you worked so hard for. You can get me the information we need. I can't let you leave.
Sam: That's not up to you.
Christine: Don't you walk away from me.
Sam: I'm going back to Abby. She accepts me for the piece of crap I am.
Aktaion’s house
Marston: 25 years ago, a team went on an archaeological exploration to Alaska, and they discovered fragments of what appeared to be an egg in a meteoric crater. Unbeknownst to the scientists, the shards emitted electrical charges when touched. Further tests revealed strong heat signatures and readings.
Big Jim: The Geiger counter's going berserk. Is it radioactive?
Marston: It was a different kind of energy from any we'd ever encountered. Clean and nonradioactive. Can you imagine what humanity could achieve with an intact egg? No more coal-fired power plants, no more nuclear facilities, no more pollution. Unfortunately, their excitement was short-lived. The group unknowingly became infected when they touched those shards. Whatever was inside that egg altered their behaviour.
Julia: They committed suicide?
Marston: When their leader walked off that roof, the assistants followed him.
Julia: Why?
Marston: Autopsies revealed bodies teeming with cells never found in anyone on Earth.
Julia: Is that what the people of Chester's Mill are infected with?
Marston: We don't know.
Big Jim: What happens if, um… Something happens to the egg here?
Marston: Whatever the leader does the group will follow. Which is why it is crucial for us to meet the person who first touched the egg.
Julia: We know who the leader is. She worked for you. She's the woman who was using that camera.
Marston: We did hire an anthropologist named Christine Price to find the world's first intact egg.
Julia: But she never returned the egg to Aktaion, did she?
Marston: She and her research partner vanished that day. But now that we know that she's alive, we'd love the opportunity to help her.
Julia: There's a treatment for this?
Big Jim: You're a liar.
Marston: It's in the trial stages. It's too soon to call it a treatment, but if we catch the infection early enough, we believe that we have an opportunity to reverse it.
Julia: And in the meantime, the other infected people are they safer without her there to lead them?
Marston: I can't say. And we have no way of knowing exactly what they'll do this time.
Julia: We'll lead you to her.
Men: Drop it! Put it down! Drop it!
Big Jim: Tell them to drop the weapons.
Marston: Weapons down. We're all friends here. You will lead the team to Christine Price while Mr. Rennie and I continue our conversation on the whereabouts of the egg.
Big Jim: The hell I am.
Marston: Very sorry, Mr. Rennie, but you made a promise to me. Share information with me, and I share information with you. You give me the egg, I'll show you the way out of the dome, and you will be as free as a bird.
Abby’s house
Christine: Expecting someone else? I can tell how much you love your daughter. What was her name again?
Abby: Uh, Courtney.
Christine: That's right. I remember now. I met her in the alternate reality.
Abby: Yeah. It felt so real. You know, I can still feel her in my arms.
Christine: But in real life, Courtney isn't healthy, is she? She's outside the dome and was born with severe brain damage from your drinking. She'll never talk, never read. Why did you lie to the group?
Abby: I don't know. I just can't imagine her the way that she is. What I did to her. So I just imagine something else, you know? She's out there with new parents, and they're helping her and loving her, and the doctors are fixing her brain. 'Cause I can't live if I don't think that she has a chance, so…
Christine: But she doesn't. She never did because you're her mother… Sometimes it's a relief to admit who you really are.
Abby: I didn't mean to hurt her. I love her.
Christine: I know. I know you do. I know you do. But you destroy everything you love… I'm speaking plainly to you, Abby, because I know how much you care about Sam.
Abby: I do.
Christine: The world will never get to know who your daughter might've been, but there's still time to save Sam.
Abby: Okay.
Christine: I know that you'll make the right choice this time.
Abby: Thank you.
Town hall
Barbie: Hey, do me a favour. Go tell those guys there putting those beds together, come in here, help us take the ceiling down.
Peter: Good luck with that. Christine told 'em to get the dorms ready for move-in tonight.
Barbie: Hey, I don't care what she said. You tell them I said move-in can wait.
Peter: Yeah. All right.
Barbie: What the hell? It's scored.
In the tunnels
Christine: That was very wasteful.
Eva: What? This stuff?
Christine: We're running out of time. Remember when you told me you thought something was growing inside you? You were right. There is something growing. The egg put a life force inside you. You are changing, cell by cell, into a better version of yourself, a woman who will bear Barbie's child. But you have to protect him, Eva. You have to be willing to do whatever it takes. The child you'll have together will replace me.
Eva: You're crazy… Junior. Let me go! No! N… No!
Christine: Bring her here.
Eva: No. No!
Christine: This fluid is finite and precious. A gift I would only give to someone as important as you.
Eva: No!
Christine: Better now?
Eva: I'm sorry I questioned you before. It seems so simple now. Who I need to be.
Christine: And you remember what we talked about? What you need to do for Barbie?
Eva: I'll do whatever it takes.
Christine: Good girl. Now go get some rest.
Junior: Why is that happening?
Christine: You and me? We're the same now. It's not so easy for everyone. Some people need more help than others. And we can't give oxytocin to everyone. There's not enough to go around. We need to guide the resistant. Starting with Joe. I need the two of you to build something very important.
Junior: Hunter said Joe and Norrie abandoned their work.
Christine: Send Hunter to find them and bring them to Town Hall. Have them wait there for me.
Joe works on a roof. Hunter comes.
Hunter: Joe! Norrie! Hey. Christine wants you back at Town Hall pronto.
Norrie: We're taking the day, Hunter! There's no law against that, is there?
Hunter: I have to come up and get you?
Joe: Yeah, come up here and check out the view.
Norrie: Are you kidding me?
Joe: So, uh, what do you think? Look, you can actually see the old paper mill from here.
Hunter: You guys have to come back.
Norrie: You're like cattle.
Hunter: We have to work together.
Norrie: We live together, we work together. We moo together. If you want to eat cow food and be herded, then that's your choice, but this is a free country, and I'm gonna do what I want.
Hunter: Norrie.
Norrie: Moo on. I'm not going anywhere.
Hunter: Come on. Come on.
Norrie: Hey, get away from me! Please. Get off me! Stop!
Hunter: Oh!
Norrie: Hunter!
Joe: Hunter!
Norrie: Hunter, are you okay?!
Town hall
Barbie: Okay, come on, bring it to me.
Christine: What are you doing?
Barbie: Ripping all the beams out of the ceiling. There's no patching this up.
Christine: So Pete was right. Where is he?
Barbie: He's taking a break.
Christine: I'm sorry. I should have just handed the reins over to you and moved out of the way. I hope you know that I trust you 100%.
Hallway
Barbie: So, this collapse. I don't think it was an accident. I'm not sure, but several of the beams are scored in different places. They've been cut.
Christine: Someone did this deliberately? Why?
Barbie: To prove he was right.
Christine: Pete? We can't have this man in the group. You know what you need to do.
Barbie: What?
Christine: You need to take care of him. His actions killed two people.
Joe: Barbie! Hunter fell off a roof. We need your help. Let's go.
Abby’s house
Sam: I return with "repleshinments." Replenishments.
Water dripping
Sam: Abby! Oh. Abby. Hey. Oh.
Abby drown in the bath.
Peter’s tent.
Christine: Another pig was killed. Well, a piglet, actually, so there's only enough for a few VIPs.
Peter: We'll make it our secret.
Christine: I have to prioritize, which doesn't always sit well with the people who think they're getting the short end of the stick… I underestimated you, Pete. You're a man who listens to his instincts and does what he has to do to be heard. The problem is, is not everyone respects your initiative. Barbie knows that you cut the beams in the ceiling, that you're responsible for the deaths of those two people.
Peter: What? Hey, I had nothing to do with that.
Christine: Of course you did. And I understand why. But Barbie doesn't. And he's going to kill you. I pleaded with him. I told him our group can't operate like that. But his mind's made up. I know that you're not the real threat. Barbie is. Without him around, you'd have everything you want: women, power, status. He's the enemy. The only thing holding you back.
Peter: So what am I supposed to do?
Christine: You're an instinctive man, Pete. You do what feels right.
Christine joins Julia at her office.
Christine: What are you doing in my office?
Julia: It's not your office anymore.
Christine: What has gotten into you? You're even more brash than usual. Well, if I were to scream, everyone in this building would come and restrain you.
Julia: Not when I tell everyone you've been lying to them about being a therapist or whatever you are. And I'm gonna scream it from the center of town if you don't get your ass in my car right now.
Town hall
Barbie: All right. All right, we need to stabilize him. Joe, get his head. Norrie, get his feet. Where the hell's Sam? Hey, buddy.
Hunter: Hey.
Barbie: How you feeling?
Hunter: What happened?
Joe: You fell off - the roof.
Barbie: All right, Hunter, do me do me a favour here, all right? Can you move your fingers? That's a good sign. All right, now your feet. Come on, Hunter, I need you to move your feet now.
Hunter: Barbie, I can't feel my legs. I can't feel my legs.
Barbie: Okay, listen, I'm-I'm gonna go get Eva, okay? She dealt with a lot of these injuries in the alternate reality.
Norrie: It's gonna be okay.
Junior: Hunter, what happened on the roof?
Hunter: I asked Norrie to come with me and she sat down. And when I tried to get her up, she pushed me. Norrie pushed me.
Norrie: That's not what happened.
Joe: She's right. Hunter grabbed her wrist and she pulled away. I mean, he lost his balance. It was an accident.
Junior: You're responsible for this. There need to be consequences.
Norrie: No, no. It was an accident, like Joe said. Junior, what's wrong with you?
Everyone is frozen.
Norrie: Something's wrong with these people.
Joe: Come on.
Norrie: Go.
Joe: This way.
Norrie: Okay. Go. Go! Go!
Joe: Come on! Come on! Move! Get out of the way! Junior! Junior! Junior. Help us.
Junior: No one's going anywhere until we talk to Christine.
Near the lake
Julia: Get out.
Christine: It must be exhausting being the only soldier left in a war that's already been lost.
Julia: Get out. Start moving. Nothing's been lost. You're on your way to Bird Island, where whatever's in you that's making you such a monster will be removed. And if you survive, all of Chester's Mill will get the same treatment until this town goes back to the way that it was.
Christine: You actually mean to save humanity? Oh, that's just so sweet. Unfortunately, it's much too late for that.
Parking
Barbie: Eva! Hey! Eva! Hunter fell off a roof. I think he's paralyzed. I'm gonna need a hand. Come on.
Eva: Okay.
Explosion
Fight
Peter: I'm the hero now, you hear me?! I'm gonna take your place and your girl!
Eva: You will never have a girl like me. You want to know why? Because you're a piece of trash who never learned how to be a man.
Peter hits Eva so Barbie kills him.
Barbie: I'm here. I'm here. Hey.
Eva: I'll do anything for you, Dale.
Barbie: And I'll do anything for you.
Aktaion’s house
Man: We're almost there.
Big Jim: Hey, hey, hey. Door's that way.
Marston: Yes. But the way out of the dome is here.
Big Jim: Wait! Wait! Hey! Hey! Hey! What is this?!
Marston: It's a birdcage. Isn't it extraordinary? This island was once filled with ornithologists. This is my favourite cage.
Big Jim: But I'm not infected. Indy? What are you doing with my dog? Hey. Hey. Indy. Hey, hey. It's okay, boy. Hey. It's okay, boy. Come here.
Marston: You weren't honest with me about the egg, Mr. Rennie. The egg is not on Bird Island.
Big Jim: Wait! Wait! I lied. It's at Town Hall. Christine's got it.
Marston: You've lost your chance. Martin, take this animal into the next room and slaughter it.
Big Jim: No, no! Wait, wait! Wait. All right. It's smashed. I broke it. It's broken. It's smashed. Give me my dog back. Come here. Come here, boy. Good boy. Come here. Come here, boy. Oh, good boy. Come here. Good boy. You're a good boy. Good boy, good boy, good boy. Good boy… Why am I here?
Marston: Every proper study must have an experiment and a control. Christine Price is the experiment, and you, Mr. Rennie, are the control.
