just don't hurt me, please!!

oh, jesus christ, what the fuck are you doing?!

shhh ... quiet.

it was horrible ... it was ... i don't even know what it was.

try drawing. can you draw what attacked you?

[ NAME ], hey, can you tell me what happened?

what kind of fucking animal does this?

we should cut it off before the infection spreads.

do i look like a doctor?

i don't remember much, i don't even know what i saw.

i've got a gun! and i know how to use it! ... sort of.

i need this, it's not safe out there.

are you trying to piss me off?

when i was little, i used to think islands would just, like ... float.

you don't mind that we're talking about it, right?

why is it up to me to justify my feelings?

do i take the high road and forget about it?

this is actually kind of fun.

now that i'm by myself, i kind of like it.

nothing personal, it's ... a me thing. we're cool, right?

that's the summer camp experience right there.

i couldn't find anything to eat, the kitchen's pretty cleared out.

fuck, i don't even know what happened.

i'm okay... i'll be okay, thanks to you.

no, i just helped a little.

you're here with me. that helps.

uh, what happened to the lights?

we're holding down the fort.

did anybody else hear that?

stay here, i'll check it out.

is this the last time we're gonna see each other?

i'm sorry, [ NAME ], i'm just distracted.

maybe i was just misreading the situation back there...

of course i wanted it to happen, i just didn't know if you did, too.

you're just saying that because i'm hurt.

we have to hide ... we have to hide!

jesus, where's the gun?

technology ... it giveth and it taketh.

i'm sorry if it's not up to your standards, but i've been putting in some TLC.

how do you even know all this stuff?

technical stuff has always been hard for me to get a handle on.

if you'd like, i could show you the ropes.

i'm gonna keep an eye out.

we can't be sure they were talking about us.

but that's not ... that's not possible, right?

what is this?! make it stop, make it stop!

god's sake, tonight sucks ass.

[ NAME ], is that you?!

well, that bodes ill. fucking hell.

oh my god, no way — am i glad to see you!

you left me back there, you asshole!

what the fuck is going on?

sorry, i'm just ... i'm glad you're okay.

you don't have to be a dick about literally everything.

you're right, i'm sorry.

ugh, you're so annoying.

okay, can we please not do this right now?!

quit moving so much!

i mean, it's not bleeding, but you need to see a doctor.

we need to be keeping a record of everything. for the police.

i have a funny feeling the cops aren't gonna want to believe us.

this isn't you ... this isn't you!

where the fuck is everyone?

you were defending yourself.

i need your help. please.

i'm not. killing. "people"!

i'm gonna open the door, slowly.

i ask, you answer. that's how this works.

fine. what do you wanna know?

you have no idea what's going on here. not a goddamn clue.

you just stepped in some grade A, double prime, cosmic type shit.

your only option is to buckle the fuck up and do what i say.

please stop trying to intimidate me and tell me what the fuck is going on.

i feel like i'm going crazy!

i'm kind of all mixed up, but more or less in-tact i think.

there's blood and ... stuff ... everywhere.

i feel like i remember bits and pieces but none of it makes sense.

who does this guy think he is?

i'm not going anywhere, we can talk right here.

you have nothing to bargain with.

can't break old [ NAME ]. many have tried, many have failed.

i'm being serious, [ NAME ].

last night feels like a lifetime ago.

what the fuck does that mean, though? were we set up?

well, how do you know how kidnappers act?

i'm just trying to get us out of here.

what if we can't make sense of it?

sometimes things just don't make sense. what then?

this isn't forever, [ NAME ].

you've got to stay positive, you can't think like that.

you were poking around in my stuff?

i can't believe you didn't tell me.

we've been making plans, [ NAME ], what the fuck?

i'm sorry, [ NAME ], this really sucks.

i'm sorry. i shouldn't have kept it from you.

you know you can talk to me about anything, right?

okay, let's just focus on getting out of here for now.

yeah, that was really sketchy.

i'm surprised you're not more messed up.

i don't have a scratch on me.

i'm just saying there's a slight chance it was a werewolf.

are you out of your goddamn mind?

you got anything better? zombies? aliens?

interrupt me again, you're on your own.

would it really be so crazy with all the shit we've been seeing?

i'm just trying to keep an open mind.

those are just campfire stories.

there's more to all this than you think.

just let me finish, then you can decide if you believe me or not.

the next few weeks were long.

that's really not very helpful, [ NAME ].

okay, okay, just- one problem at a time.

just interested is all. feel like i hardly know you.

no reason we can't be buds, right?

you don't know the half of it.

you're not gonna believe it until you see it for yourself.

don't get too close.

don't worry, [ NAME ], i'm here.

i just don't feel so good.

what do you need? what can i do to help?

just stay back, okay? you shouldn't be this close.

whoever was wearing this can't be doing too well.

you want to tell me what happened?

why didn't you run?

this doesn't mean i trust you.

i'm too tired to argue.

i'll brew some coffee.

you know... just because you know, doesn't mean you know.

this isn't what it seems to be.

you're gonna have to be more specific.

you're in just as much trouble as i am.

my family? we didn't mean to hurt anybody.

we're just trying to survive like anybody else.

we're gonna end this thing once and for all.

family is the most important thing in the world.

starting to get the picture?

it's not a lot to go on. and frankly, it's shit.

seems pretty straightforward to me.

if you can kill a werewolf, and that's a big if.

that's where i'm hoping you'll come in.

you're the best option i've got.

maybe it doesn't matter.

take some time to think about all this. i'll be back in the morning.

seen enough yet?

we should be careful of anything that fucker says.

we're gonna fix it on our own.

it wasn't you. i know it wasn't you.

we're gonna fix you, [ NAME ], i promise.

goddammit, [ NAME ], what are we gonna do now?

what happened to "we're all in this together"?

god, it's so obvious.

i thought i heard someone ... i - i still can.

it's coming from behind that door.

we're one step closer to going home.

that's it ... that's the story.

what's that supposed to mean?

don't make me spell it out for you.

all i know is i have to do this.

so this is our new guest...

dumb fuckin' animal.

get your hands off me! let me go!

i didn't mean for this to happen!

is it money that you want?

please just let me go, i'm so sorry!

say what you've gotta say.

[ NAME ], don't you think this is a bit much?

this isn't a ghost story, it's a creature feature – it's really happening.

worst case scenario, this should give you a fighting chance.

put that fucking thing down before you hurt someone.

i don't care what you think.

how well do you know [ NAME ]?

i don't think anybody 'knows' anybody. not really.

if i let my conscience slow me down, everything gets a lot worse for everyone.

shit ... we haven't got much time.

so, what's your deal, then?

so, i don't fit in the right box – is that what you're saying?

the most responsible thing is to try and get help.

this whole time we were having such a fun summer.

the engine's completely screwed.

if i could summon a working car out of thin air, i would.

now i know you've got a screw loose.

did you get bitten?

get away. get away from me!

i wish i could take it all back, but i can't.

"taken care of the problem", do you hear yourself?

don't you go around like you're better than everyone else.

don't you tell me what to do, you piece of shit.

we're gonna be laughing about this in a few years.

it's motion activated ... i think.

i guess we just make ourselves at home.

i guess i just don't like to see other people sad.

well ... fuck this night, huh?

c'mon, i wanna hear you say it.

i sure as hell can make you suffer.

i keep trying to fix it, but people keep getting hurt.

i shouldn't have let you come.

try not to make so much noise.

are we going to end up in a documentary?

i used to be pretty good at the claw game at the local arcade.

just, uh ... watch my back, yeah?

hurry the fuck up!

so much for our brilliant escape plan.

it's better than being out in the open. come on.

i don't want to be waiting around.

we need protection. go see what you can find.

i'm feeling pretty good, actually.

what are you doing? ... stop that.

i'm done being chased.

this is proof we're on the right track. stay close.

thanks .. for uh, not killing me.

you think this is over? this isn't over.

okay ... okay, it makes sense. it all makes sense.

help me. we can help those who are still alive.

in what world would i wanna help you?

you go by yourself, you're gonna die out there.

this doesn't mean i forgive you for what you did to me.

can someone please get me some fucking clothes?

where the hell are we?

we definitely should've gone to the motel.

the night's not over yet.

we gotta get a vantage, come on.

we have enough on our plates already, stop discovering shit.

showtime, motherfuckers.

fuck this whole night.

should we go find the others?

we're safer here, and it's nearly morning.

let's go, let's go, let's go!

what happened in the past doesn't matter right now.

we need to know what we're up against, at least.

what we're up against is my one chance to end this for good.

[ NAME ], wake up!

where did it go? it can't have just disappeared.

over here ... got some blood. leads through there.

what the hell happened here?

we could be killed. you ready to end this?

let's fucking do this.

you've been through a lot more than i have.

if anyone deserves to survive, it's you.

really? you're still hiding stuff now?

every full moon for years.

please, let's just ... go.

i bet you think you're fucking clever.

i tried to help you. i tried to warn you.

i even started to like you.

i won't forget what you did.

now i will never leave you.

i thought you were supposed to be in a hospital bed. ( from Earl whose staring VEEEERY intently at you chief. )

"Thought I'd make room for people who actually need one." Chief wasn't quite sure what to do with her body. Or how to behave, for that matter. Earl's sudden appearance wasn't quite what she expected, but she found herself lending him a nervous grin anyway. Despite the chills that man still sent down her spine... there was a certain relief to him being there that she couldn't quite put her finger on. Reassuring that someone with a proper head on their shoulders was here, maybe that was it. God knows they needed more of that around here. ( Jury was still up for what that said about her. )

"Surface wound, bruising, but nothing I haven't dealt with before. What about you? You look good-Better... than I've last seen you." Eyes give him a quick once-over, and she's half a mind to reach out and check to see if he was really there. Maybe not the best move. "Are you here for a reason, or is this just an unlucky coincidence?"
