Everybody talked about it, since I first moved to Oregon.
“The big one, the earthquake that trashed the whole West Coast,”
California up into Washington, total destruction. Officially calling it the largest natural disaster in American history, but nine police law in America can't get us together. [MUSIC PLAYING]
It wasn't as bad as you might think. Not at first. When I was alone, Riff, when I guess, I thought I was. I need you, Lucas, and I need you to push. But, sir, I have the bloody bodies of 10 guys inside
of warehouse that was supposedly fully evacuated,
and a teenage girl in Dallas would happen. All right. All right.
“Will you tell me about where we found you?”
How you wound up at that warehouse? I don't want to talk about that. This is going to be a very boring few-hour sealer, if you don't tell us a bit more about what you saw out there. I had picked every house on my little hill clean.
I just didn't know what would help me next. So I took it all, even the gun.
Did you kill them, sealer?
I just grabbed the gun and ran. I had wasted enough days already. All right. It's time. Get up. We're not playing here.
Go over the swamp. I knew I had to act that. You're okay. You're okay, you're all right. Listen, lady.
Lady, I saved your life. Should've just let me drown. Be done with it. Better pray they don't find you. Who?
Those guys? Those guys are up the river.
“They've been waiting for this for a long time.”
Charles, sir, it's Lucas. When I give you a target, I'm not asking for you to hit it tomorrow or later. My orders come before food. They come before sleep. They come before sex.
I understand, sir. I don't think you do, son. You get the story of what happened from here, or we will beat it out of her, and then punt her ass back over the border before she can go
climb to the nonprofit orgs. I don't think I don't need you to think. It was time. Time for what? Time to find my mom.
You know, we have files on her. Your mom was active on a lot of dark websites. I spent the next month wondering where she was. Whether she was alive. How I could find her.
