WOMAN: Pockets are empty.

MAN: Go.
Hey, let's go.
Get out of here.
[CAR DOORS SLAM.]
[CAR STARTS, TIRES SCREECH.]
[FLAMES CRACKLING.]
[SWITCH CLICKING.]
[DEVICE BEEPS.]
Look, I don't want any trouble.
I'm not gonna take anything from you.
But I would feel a lot better if you'd just came out, and we talk face-to-face.
Did my dad send you? Uh, no, I don't know your father.
I'm gonna open the closet now.
Whoa! Just Look, I'm I'm not gonna hurt you.
It's okay.
Hey.
I'm Maria.
What's your name? [CLICK.]
Zohara.
Hi, Zohara.
I'm just here to get some wires and an air filter, and then I'm moving on.
Okay? [WHEELS ROLLING.]
So, you're not here to take me back? Back? [CHUCKLES.]
No.
But you're not safe here.
You should go back to wherever you came from.
[OPENS LID ON COOLER.]
What do you need that for? Look, if they don't get you, the radiation will.
You're not gonna feel it right away, but if you stay here long enough, you're gonna start to get sick.
I'm just gonna wait it out here till somebody comes.
Who? Help.
Help? Yeah, like the army or something? [MARIA LAUGHS.]
No one's fucking coming, kid.
This is it.
Well, I'll just wait until they turn the power back on.
Do you know what happened? Yeah, there was a bunch of earthquakes.
Yeah, and haven't you noticed anything strange? Like the fact that it's pitch-black all day? And freezing in the middle of summer? I've been in a bomb shelter with my dad.
Did he tell you anything about the rogue planet? Here's the sun.
And this is Earth.
That orbits the sun.
And this is a rogue planet.
A rogue planet is a planet that doesn't orbit a star like Earth does.
Just kind of hurtling through space.
And even though the rogue planet didn't hit us, it got close enough to Earth to pull us out of orbit with the sun.
And that gravitational disruption is what caused all the earthquakes.
And so two weeks ago Earth was ejected from our solar system and we're a rogue planet too.
With no sun.
That's why it's dark and cold.
Yeah.
And with no sun, there's no warmth, not photosynthesis, no rotation which means the eventual end of life on Earth.
So then what's the point of me going home if we're just gonna all die? Well, to be with your family.
And what's the point of collecting shit from a stupid motel room? Look, Zohara, I know it's a lot to take Why do you need fucking wires and air filters?! [UNFASTENING VELCRO.]
I'm building an incubator.
I need to get ready if it comes early.
Because you're going somewhere.
You said that you were moving on.
Tell me, what happened with your father? You can't just change the subject.
Yes, I can.
[CONTINUES CHOPPING.]
So that's it? This is so fucked up.
I'm sorry.
I wish I had better news.
Why should I even believe you? You come in here in this ridiculous suit, saying that the world's gonna end, and now you're pulling crap out of the wall like a crazy person! Hey.
I'm not crazy.
I've known this my whole life.
So what, you like a psychic or something? Yes.
[LAUGHS.]
Wow.
She used to squeeze your hand three times.
What? Your mother.
She used to squeeze your hand one, two, and three.
I.
Love.
You.
And now she's gone.
Can you tell what I'm thinking right now? Yeah.
[LAUGHS.]
No, it doesn't work like that.
I can't read minds.
I just just have these flashes.
You know, when I was three I told my parents that a giant black ball was coming to kill us badly.
And of course, you know, they laughed at me.
But as I grew older, my visions became clear.
Everyone thought I was crazy, and for a while, I thought I was crazy, too.
Until I found Malek Riley.
That weird billionaire guy from YouTube? That weird billionaire is the reason why no one's had an electricity bill for years.
Yeah, but everyone said that he started to lose his shit once he started talking about the The what? The end of the world? Oh, fuck.
Malek and I were seeing the same things.
And after a vetting process, he gave me the coordinates.
He's building a habitat.
Underground.
Wow.
So how come you aren't there already? Well, I was on my way when it happened.
And I got jumped, so now I'm running late.
They took everything, you know, my my truck, my gun, my food.
They left my suit, and and this.
Come.
What is this? It's, um that's my baby's birthmark.
Doesn't really look like a birthmark.
When I close my eyes and I picture him, we're swimming together.
And he has this mark on his body.
And the vision is always in a different place.
But I can feel there's power in it.
That people will know him by it.
That he's gonna be important is this new world.
My whole family has weird birthmarks.
My grandfather and I, we have the same one on the left knee.
Can I see it? Oh, I don't take off my suit.
Come on.
[SIGHS.]
Okay.
[VELCRO TEARS.]
I don't have a birthmark.
Well, not everyone does.
[GRUNTS.]
- [ZIPPING.]
- What are you doing? I'm going with you.
- No.
- Why? You'll die out there.
Yeah, but I'm gonna die here, too.
I don't have enough food or supplies.
I barely have enough to get myself there.
Well, we can just stop at my house.
My dad stocked enough food to last us for years.
Zohara, I'm sorry.
I can't take you with me.
[SCRUBBING.]
Can I tell you something? Okay.
I just wanted to check on my best friend.
Lily.
The earthquake stopped and I begged my dad to let me go and see her.
She only lives three houses down.
He's always been really strict.
And paranoid.
Going off on all of this conspiracy stuff.
But he's gotten so much worse.
When [SIGHS.]
When he caught me sneaking out, he dragged me by my hair, and handcuffed me to my bed.
He was so angry and and confused.
And he kept calling me by the wrong name.
And I was scared.
I didn't know what else to do.
For over a week, I begged him and I begged him.
He finally uncuffed me.
A few days later I tried to sneak out again.
And he caught me, and went to grab me.
And I hit him.
With the hammer.
And I ran away.
[SOBS.]
I can't go back.
[CRYING.]
Hey.
It's okay.
It's okay.
Come here.
[SIGHS.]
There you go.
Yeah.
One more right here.
- On this side? - Yeah.
Yeah.
Come on.
Lay it on the bed.
Now lay down on it.
On the left side.
Okay.
Yeah, there you go.
Perfect.
What are you doing? Making you a suit.
So, did you check on your friend Lily? Yeah, but all of the windows were broken and no one was there.
Except for her gross dead guinea pigs.
Lily was cool.
She used to let me use her makeup.
And [LAUGHS.]
And sometimes we would go behind her house and smoke, like, these really skinny cigarettes.
Oh, yeah.
Capri Slims.
- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah.
Okay, now scoot over to the other side.
We talked about leaving when we turned 18.
Moving in together.
I had started collecting plates and kitchen stuff MAN: Zohara! Are you here? Zohara! Dad? - Who's this? - This is Maria.
She's been helping me.
[PANTING.]
I'm sorry.
I just wanted to check and make sure that Lily was okay.
.
- We need to go.
- No, wait - Now.
Come on! - Maria! - [ALL SHOUTING.]

[MARIA GROANING.]
Maria! No FATHER: It was an accident.
I didn't mean to.
I'm sorry.
[WHEEZING.]
She's pregnant.
We have to help her.
[PANTING.]
Once she breaks her leg, we can't make her suffer.
Dad? We can't leave her like this, son.
No, Dad, it's me! - We can't leave her like this.
- Stop! Listen.
We can take her back to the shelter, Dad.
We have to do it.
I'm sorry.
- It will be quick.
- Dad.
Don't do this! We have to do it.
I promise it won't hurt.
[WHEEZING.]
This won't hu Maria.
