A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
["With a Little Help From My Friends"
by Joe Cocker plays]
OLYMPUS
[Léo] I have to lock it from here!
[Teresa] Get out of there, Léo! Léo!
[Léo] No! No!
[panting, breathing heavily]
[Levi] We, the survivors,
have the sacred duty
to reestablish civilization.
A world where each person matters.
A place where together
we can follow a path of peace
and prosperity.
Congressman, you promised us.
Congressman, you can't just leave us here.
They need an answer.
[man] Hello?
Hello!
For God's sake!
We don't have bathrooms for 80 people.
Congressman, you don't have a choice.
How come? We're in here,
they're out there.
As long as that door stays shut,
-we're safe.
-Stop and think, woman!
We control the way in
but now they control the way out.
[people clamoring]
We're we're coming in!
-Oh, baby I get by ♪
-With a little help from my friends ♪
-All I need is my buddies ♪
-With a little help from my friends ♪
-Oh, yes I'm gonna keep trying, now ♪
-With a little help from my friends ♪
I'm gonna make it for my friends ♪
What do I do when my love is away? ♪
Does it worry you to be alone? ♪
You didn't force anyone to follow you.
We almost made it.
Tell that to your boyfriend.
You tell him.
We will find him.
He is dead.
I know.
But I won't let him wander around.
He deserves better.
You'll get yourself killed.
Not if you help me.
[Robson chuckles]
I'm dead, slum girl.
Then sit there feeling sorry for yourself.
You know, Robson
there are worse fates than death
in the world now.
We're out of food.
People are sick.
The creatures are aware
there are people alive in the building.
You have no idea what's going on out here.
The world's gone mad.
There are armed militia men
walking around everywhere!
They're killing everyone. Alive
-or dead.
-[camera feed stops]
I can't stand this guy's voice anymore.
That's it!
[no audible dialogue]
He'll be the leader of the group
in the building.
He'll organize them in groups of ten.
Each group will have a leader
-also chosen by him.
-Shut up, Levi.
And we'll control him.
Shut up and look.
[militiaman]
On your knees, dipshit.
At last!
It's the police.
I'd like to talk with Congressman Levi.
Gunshot in the building!
This is Congressman Levi.
Congressman
this is Fish.
Fish?
He dumps bodies into the sea.
Shh!
Go on.
First of all, nice to meet you.
Your fame precedes you.
I know you're a very reasonable man,
with great sympathy for others,
and quick to adapt to new circumstances.
As you may have already noticed,
the world's come to an end out here.
But it seems that in there, it hasn't.
I told you that video was a terrible idea.
And so, my associates and me,
we're getting into the House of Gods.
One way
or another.
Is that a threat?
No.
The threat comes now.
If you don't open the door for us,
we'll kill one person every 15 minutes.
-[woman 1] No, no, no!
-[woman 2] No, please!
And the first one to die
will be this kid here.
Let's open the door.
That's not your decision to make.
But it's Léo.
He's dead, Teresa.
If you open that door,
they'll take over this place.
Exactly.
Five.
Four.
Three.
Levi.
Do something.
Two.
One
Mister Fish?
Yes, Congressman.
You can't just go about killing people
like that, sir.
Why not?
Because you might need them.
And why would I need them?
Because every ruler
needs subjects.
[Léo breathing shallowly]
Subjects?
-Subjects?
-Why don't you call it what it is?
-Shh!
-Slaves!
Quiet, all of you!
-What are you doing, Levi?
-Saving our skins.
You're handing over Olympus?
No.
I'm negotiating our place in it.
I'm going after the slum girl
before she fucks up.
You can't open that door.
[Barbara gasps]
Teresa!
Teresa, don't!
Don't!
Come on, Robson, outta my way! Move!
Come on!
I'm gonna save Léo.
Teresa
listen to me.
The only thing keeping him alive
-is this door.
-No. I don't believe you.
You answer to that scumbag!
I answer to no one!
But I believe in you.
And I believe in that fucking brat too.
So it's about fucking time
you two believed in me.
I'm on your side.
If you don't believe me
then shoot.
[Teresa sobbing]
You know what the problem is, Mr. Fish?
The only person who really knows
how this place works
is that very kid
you want to shoot in the head.
Listen, Congressman.
I don't give two shits what he has to say.
I'll burn this dump to the ground
with all of you inside.
If Olympus doesn't work for me,
it won't work for anybody else.
Am I clear?
We need some time to deliberate
and come to a decision.
Five minutes.
And the kid's countdown
picks up right where it left off.
We have to negotiate.
Certain things are non-negotiable,
Congressman.
We can't let them come in, Levi.
Come on, let's go.
[door slams]
I caught the brat
trying to open the door again.
[Robson] The congressman is right.
They have more people and more ammo.
They'll come in anyway.
We let them in to negotiate.
And then
we kill them all.
But these guys are professionals.
We only let in a few of them.
No more than four. And that includes Fish.
And then
we kill the motherfucker.
Once Fish is dead
Levi can dupe the others.
Kill them all with two rifles and no ammo?
Shut the fuck up!
No, wait. That's an important question.
Two rifles.
Twenty-three bullets.
Plus the gun you're hiding in your pants.
Wait a minute, it's a .22.
It's barely useful.
[scoffs] You're a real scumbag.
Anyone against?
Well?
In that case,
the so-called democracy's won.
Calm down, gentlemen.
Take it easy.
Let the kid go, and you get in.
Only after we sit and talk.
-We said four.
-One stays at the door.
That won't be necessary.
I'm sure we'll reach an agreement
that works for all of us.
I insist.
Come on!
In that case, my soldier also stays.
All of this looked bigger on TV.
This is a god's palace.
Full of marvels and miracles.
Solar panels, a cistern, a freezer,
three luxury rooms, a presidential suite,
a pool and a gym.
I see you have prisoners of your own.
[Levi] A dissident.
The kid's girlfriend.
Throw him with her and watch both.
Would you mind if I had someone
tend to the kid's wounds?
Go ahead.
[Levi] Care for some whiskey?
So, Congressman,
tell me why I shouldn't just kill
all of you
and just keep the kid who knows stuff,
and his girlfriend, to encourage him
to spill the beans.
Because you're an intelligent man.
And intelligent men think long-term.
Go and tell Barbara it's time.
[zombies snarling]
[man] The situation is out of control!
The doors are coming down!
The creatures are in the entrance hall.
For the love of God, open up!
Open up!
In this new world of ours, Mr. Fish
no one will survive on their own.
[mouthing] Calm down.
The house has limited supplies.
You'll need people to plant crops
to build shelters, defend this place
and expand its borders.
And dealing with people, as you know,
is a real pain.
That's why
every king needs a minister
to do this for him.
Open up! Open up!
Fish, we gotta get in now.
Fuck, Fish, don't leave us here!
[glass shatters]
You are good at this, Congressman.
I'm the best at what I do.
-It's hot in here, isn't it?
-Yeah, it's hot.
Therefore, we'll have a king,
a prime minister,
his army,
his ruling class,
and his servants.
What do you do? I mean, used to do
before the end of the world?
[man] I was a police officer,
and I loved killing scum.
Get back over there, you slut.
In this new civilization I'm proposing,
the ruling class will live here,
inside Olympus,
and the servants
Come on, step away.
[Levi] in the outside area.
As soon as they manage to conquer it.
Necessity
is the mother of motivation.
[guns cock]
Game over, Fish.
[Fish] If you kill me,
my men have orders
to burn this place to the ground!
Your head won't be here to see it happen.
-Tell your minions to drop their guns.
-Hands off the gun!
Put the fucking guns down.
[echoing] No!
[gasps]
[all screaming, clamoring]
[Cristina] Robson?
You killed him.
You killed him!
A small token of my loyalty.
As I was saying
lives will be sacrificed,
but the greater good will prevail.
And our king shall enjoy the luxury
of his castle,
and of his women.
[Fish]
I like the way you think, Congressman.
The world may be over,
but we shouldn't deprive ourselves
of life's simple pleasures.
[laughs]
Spit away, woman. I like it.
You pig!
[Fish cackling]
My apologies, Granny,
but I got no more use for you!
Stay away from my grandma!
-In the hallway, behind the mirrors!
-Shoot! Shoot!
[uptempo percussive music plays]
Come out, or I'll gouge
your grandma's eyes out! Come on!
Torquato! Aim for the head!
[Léo pants]
Teresa.
You're not going anywhere.
You sold me out.
Fuck that crone!
Take me outside.
No. No.

[Teresa grunts]
What do you wanna do?
Put an end to private property.
Are you sure?
Aren't you?
