JACEY: Babe.
TAMRA: Jacey, don't.

RYAN: Hey. Do you--
do you want some water or--

Or something?
DANNY: Do you have water?

RYAN: No.
DANNY: Fucking Christ! (THROWING A CAN AT HIM BUT IT MISSES AND HITS THE WALL)

RYAN: I'm just-- I'm just--
just trying to help.

Just trying to help, right?
Just trying to help me.

Trying to help me
feel guilty, yeah?

RYAN: Daniel.
DANNY: Daniel's been gone
since camp, Ryan.

So what,
you just trying to make

everybody know now?
EVELYN: Danny.

DANNY: You want everybody to know?
RYAN: No!

DANNY: I lost it all, Ryan! (PINNING RYAN AGAINST THE WALL)

Now I got a fat fucking reminder
every fucking day! (GRABBING HIS STOMACH)

EVELYN: Danny, let him go!

EVER: You're hurting him!
DANNY: No! (LETTING GO OF RYAN AND BACK UP NEAR THE BIG WINDOW)

No!

No!
JACEY: Danny.

DANNY: I changed fucking
everything about myself.

I changed fucking everything
so I didn't fucking vomit

every time I look
in the fucking mirror.

(PANTS)
EVER: Danny.

DANNY: Don't fucking look at me!

EVELYN: Danny.
(DANNY SCREAMS)

EVER: We're here with you,
Danny.

EVELYN: Please.
(SCREAMS)

EVER: We just want to help you.
DANNY: Fuck you!

(GROWLS FROM ZOMBIE WAYNE AS HE BUSTS IN THE ROOM APPARENTLY NOT SO DEAD)
(ALL SCREAM AND MOVE OUT OF THE WAY EXCEPT FOR DANNY AND WAYNE KNOCKS HIM OUT THE WINDOW)

(EVELYN SCREAMS AND RUNS TO THE WINDOW)

(OTHERS SCREAM AND RUN TO THE WINDOW WITH HER)

JACEY: Oh, my God.

EVELYN: No! No! Please! Not my brother! He said he would never leave me! No! (SOBS IN RANDALL'S ARMS)

RYAN: Is-- is he dead?

STEVEN: Of course he's dead, Ryan.

He just fell off
the frickin' roof!

EVER: Steven.

(EVELYN AND JACEY SOB)
EVER: I'm...

I'm sorry.

(SNIFFLES)

EVER: Ryan.

RYAN: He wa-- he wasn't always
such an asshole.

I just wish everybody else
could've known that.

(SNIFFLES)

RYAN: W-- wait.

(GASPS)

(DANNY THEN BEGINS TO TWITCH AND CONTORT UP OFF THE GROUND IN AN EXORCIST MANNER)

(DANNY GROWLS AND RUNS AWAY)

(GASPS)

TAMRA: What in the uppercase
fuck was that?

STEVEN: How did he survive that?

(SHRIEKING IN DISTANCE)
(ALL GASP)

RANDALL: If that doesn't convince you,
I don't know what will.

(PANTS)
If he just turns like that...

There was a whole bus
full of kids.

This is happening.

EVELYN: (SOBS) Is Danny gonna be okay?
JACEY: Are any of us? (PANTS)

RANDALL: I don't know. I don't know. (HOLDING ON TIGHT TO EVELYN)

I don't know, but I promise you
I will do everything I can

to make sure that we are.

Okay? Okay?

I won't let anything
happen to you, Ev.

Okay?

Um...

We can't go out there.
It's not safe.

So we barricade the doors
and let's just stay in here.

Come on.
EVER: No. Then we'll just
trap ourselves.

Guys, we have no food, no water.

We need help, and I think
there is help out there.

There has to be.

What, but you just--

you just want to stay here
and do nothing?

RANDALL: Whoa. Calm-- calm down, Ever.
I'm just trying to protect us.

EVER: Yeah. That's all, I'm sure.

RANDALL: Well, what do you suggest
we do, then?

EVER: Those things,

I say we draw them
to one side of the building

and then slip through the other.

Go get your phones.
Maybe the bus starts.

RANDALL: No, no, absolutely not.

Absolutely fucking not.
It's dangerous.

Guys, c-- come on,
help me with the door.

EVER: Wait, who put you
in charge, exactly?

EVELYN: Ever. (TRYING TO GET EVERYONE TO CALM DOWN AND BE REASONABLE)
EVER: What!? (SNAPPING AT EVELYN CAUSING HER TO JOLT BACK IN FEAR)

(THIS UTTERLY PISSES RANDALL OFF AS HE TIGHTENS HIS GRIP ON EVELYN)

Fuck no.

I refuse for her to yell at my sweet angel.

I forbid it.

EVER: I am sick of no one listening
to common fucking sense.

RANDALL: Absolutely not! I forbid it! No!

(STEVEN GIVES RANDALL A KNOWING LOOK)

EVER: You know what?
The great thing about this plan

is that I don't need
your permission, Randall.

RANDALL: If you fuck this up,
we can all die.

EVER: We have listened to you
this whole day.

You've somehow always
had the answers,

so everyone went along with it.

But how's that working
out for us?

Danny was right.

What we need is fire.

(GRUNTS)

(SIGHS)

EVER: Wayne was good for one thing. (PULLING OUT A LIGHTER SHE STOLE OFF WAYNE)

(YELLS)

STEVEN: Oh, fuck!

(RANDALL SCOFFS)

RANDALL: There is no back way out.
EVER: I'll make one.

TAMRA AND EVELYN: Ever!
