Wolves? Maybe.
Yeah. Most likely.
But we shouldn't be worrying about them right now.
We should be worrying about finding food.
They're probably only passing through.
Wait a minute. Passing through as opposed to what?
Living here. Hunting here.
Wolves have a territorial range of about 300 miles,
and a kill range of 30.
lf we're close to their den, and if we're within that radius,
then they'll come after us.
Well, how can we tell if we're close?
We can't.
They might've just been feeding.
There's bodies everywhere. l threatened them, they attacked.
FLANNERY: What about the radius?
l mean, if we're in that, what? They're gonna fight us?
l thought wolves were scared of people.
Not if we're near their den.
They're not scared of anything then.
What kind of wolves are they?
l mean, what do they call the ones that just eat plants and shit?
(SCOFFS) They don't call them wolves.
HENRlCK: Herbivores, that's what you mean.
That's wishful thinking.
When did you become king shit fucking animal expert all of a sudden?
They paid me to kill those things, to keep them from killing you.
So it makes sense for me to know they're man-eaters
and they don't give a shit about berries and shrubs.
There's blood in the air. And there's death.
They know we're wounded.
They can smell it.
Hopefully they won't fuck with us.
We need to move these bodies out of here.
And then we've gotta find food.

Why are you constantly breaking balls and bitching about everything?
'Cause l wanna live, motherfucker. You understand that?
l don't want some timber wolf shitting me out on this mountain.
You're scared.
What?
You don't need all that nonsense, all that chest-puff bullshit.
What's wrong with being scared?
l'm not scared.
You're not? No.
l'm terrified.
l can tell.
And not an ounce of shame in saying it.
l'm scared shitless.
That's because you're a punk.
l don't walk through this world with fear in my heart.
You picked that up in the pen?
Somebody scribble that on the day room wall?
You better take it easy, motherfucker.
Talking tough means jack shit now. You're not scared?
(SCOFFS) You're a fool. Worse, you're a fucking liar.
l should have checked your chin at the fucking plane.
Get up, come on, get up, you big lrish fuck.
You wanna knuckle up. . . Hey, Diaz, put the fucking knife away.
We don't have time for this. Get the fuck off me!
BURKE: Hey, Diaz, put the knife away. Shut up!
Shut up, you chickenshits make me sick.
(GROANS)
Son of a bitch !
You got that kid Flannery killed
and you're not gonna get me killed.
Put your fucking hands up. Let me show you how this is done.
Put your fucking hands up.

(COUGHlNG)
What the fuck?
What did it want?
You.
Diaz, please don't do that shit to me again.
All right?

Hey, Diaz, l think you got him.
Yeah !
(MEN LAUGHlNG)
You fuck! Fuck!
l think l lost a nail. (GROANS)
(GROANlNG)
ls that the big one? That big fucker?
lt's not the alpha.
lt's an omega, an outcast.
They sent it in to test you, Diaz. (CHUCKLES)
Did l pass, bitch? Did l fucking pass?
You fucking dog. (GROANS)
(WOLVES HOWLlNG)
Let's get a large branch, sharpen the end of it,
shove it up this thing's ass.
We're gonna cook this son of a bitch.
And then we're gonna eat it.
(MEN LAUGHlNG)
DlAZ: Hey, wolf,
not so tough now, huh, wolf?
You want it? BURKE: No.
Come on. l got it, l got it. l don't. . .
ls this the white meat or the dark meat?
Make it as black as possible. Put it there.
Yeah? l know it tastes like shit but, guys,
it might be the last meat we'll get for a while.
TALGET: lt's gristly, too.
lt tastes like shit, l know, but eat it, guys. TALGET: Yeah.
lt tastes like dog shit.
And l'm much more of a cat person, really.
(ALL LAUGHlNG)
(COUGHlNG)
Burke?
BURKE: Yeah? You all right?
My head's a little off. l'm. . .
OTTWAY: Sit down, sit down.
. . .feeling a little dizzy.
That's it.
(WOLVES HOWLlNG)
You think they're watching us?
Yeah, they're watching us.
You fuck with us and we'll fuck with you.
You hear that?
You're not the animals!
We're the animals!
Come here, you fucker. Come here, you puppy.
Oh, yeah.
You're a twisted fuck. You're wrong for that. That is wrong.
Nothing's fucking. . . l'm not crazy. l'm not fucking crazy.
You fuck.
That's fucked up. (DlAZ LAUGHlNG)
l mean, that's fucked up.
Ah, you try to steal my fucking life.
(COUGHS)
Come on, you fuck.
(GRUNTS)
(BONES CRACKlNG)
You hear the bones cracking, Diaz. Come on, that's enough.
Fucking mutt. Come on.
Let him have this.
Little Fido here wants to go home.
Wants to see his brothers.
Jesus Christ. Stop.
That's what l'm gonna do. l'm gonna help him get there.
Say goodbye, boys.
(DlAZ HOWLlNG)
Take him back, motherfucker!
(WOLVES HOWLlNG)
(WOLVES GROWLlNG)
(ALPHA HOWLlNG)
(WOLVES HOWLlNG lN RESPONSE)
(WOLVES CONTlNUE HOWLlNG)
OTTWAY: We should keep moving.
(BURKE COUGHlNG)
TALGET: Those goddamn things are calling us out.
DlAZ: What the hell are you talking about, Talget?
Wolves are the only animal that will seek revenge.
OTTWAY: Hey, l don't want to hear any more about the fucking wolves,
or you're gonna start seeing them everywhere.
(BURKE CONTlNUES COUGHlNG)
Burke, how are you doing?
BURKE: l can't breathe. l can't keep going.
HENRlCK: Ottway, we can't keep going.
We can't stop.
Those things will be all over us. We gotta keep going.
DlAZ: Ottway, Burke is hurting here, man.
(BURKE CONTlNUES COUGHlNG)
This will work.
DlAZ: lt's a dead end.
They can't get in behind us.
They'll have to hit us from out front.
Let's build a fire.
(WATCH BEEPlNG)
That thing still working?
Up to 40,000 feet.
This shit had to save somebody at some point, right?
TALGET: l keep sitting here thinking.
Even with all this stuff going on,
we hit the ground at 400 miles an hour,
and we made it.
Why would we go through something like that, that crash,
if it wasn't meant to be,
or ordained?
By who?
The Almighty?
That fucking fairy tale?
How about good old-fashioned blind luck?
Flannery survived that crash, so did Hernandez.
lt don't matter.
Fate doesn't give a fuck.
Dead is dead.
Where do you think those boys are now?
Up in heaven? Being fitted for wings?
No, l'll tell you where they are.
They're not. That's where.
They're nowhere. They're gone.
No, l don't believe it.
OTTWAY: l do.
l wish l didn't.
l really wish l could believe in that stuff.
This is real, the cold.
(EXHALES)
That's real. The air in my lungs.
Those bastards out there in the dark stalking us.
lt's this world that l'm worried about, Talget, not the next.
What about your faith?
What about it?
lt's important.
(GASPS)
Emma? ls she with you guys?
lt's okay, big guy.
She's was at the back. l was speaking with her.
She's. . . She's not here.
BURKE: She's. . .
Yeah, she's not here yet. Why don't you. . .
BURKE: You tell her that l'm here.
Of course, yeah. Just lie down, she's coming.
Emma's coming. Yeah.
DlAZ: He's seeing things?
HENRlCK: He's hallucinating. lt's hypoxia.
Not enough oxygen's getting to his brain.
Hypoxia.
Why don't the rest of us have it?
lt depends on the person. Some people can't handle the altitude.
Who's Emma?
She was his sister.
She died when he was a kid.
TALGET: My daughter, Mary.
She's got really long hair almost down to her waist.
ln fact, it's the one rule my fucking ex respects,
which is that l'm the only one who cuts her hair.
She does this thing. She'll come and hover over me.
l'll just be dead asleep,
and she'll start swinging her head back and forth,
tickling me with her hair all in my face,
and (LAUGHS) she'll be laughing like crazy.
lt's a certain type of laugh, you know,
when the kid goes past laughing to laughing, like a. . .
(MlMlCS CHlLD LAUGHlNG)
You know, like you can't really breathe,
sounding more like an old man than a kid.
l miss the hell out of that kid.
Yeah.
OTTWAY: You should. You know that?
Those things from your life, whatever they might be,
make you want that next minute more than the last.
Make you fight for it.
l just wanna fuck one more time.
(ALL LAUGHlNG)
TALGET: See, you ruined my story, motherfucker.
No. No, man.
l'm telling a nice little sweet story about my daughter. . .
l don't mean to wreck your shit.
l know, l know.
l just can't go out on that last piece of horrible ass that l had.
You know what l'm saying? A 53-year-old hooker, half-Eskimo.
TALGET: We shouldn't talk about that.
She was 250, 260.
No shit.
The bitch gave me the clap like it was gift wrapped.
No, no, no. No, no, no.
(MEN LAUGHlNG)
Anyway. . .
No, l just think that l would punch out
and that would be my fucking swan song, right?
That alone is worth the fight.
That's worth the fight.
OTTWAY: My. . .
My dad was not without love. . .
Why didn't we catch. . .
Not ready to.
. . .but a clichéd lrish motherfucker when he wanted to be.
Drinker, brawler, all that stuff.
Never shed a tear.
Saw weakness everywhere.
But he had this thing for poems, poetry,
reading them, quoting them.
Probably thought it rounded him off, you know.
His way of apologizing, l guess.
And there was one that hung over the desk in his den.
It was only when I was a lot older, I realized he had written it.
lt was untitled, four lines.
l read it at his funeral.
"Once more into the fray
"lnto the last good fight l'll ever know
"Live and die on this day
"Live and die on this day"
(THUNDER RUMBLlNG)
Storm clouds.
Blizzard?
A good bet.
Based on our luck,
it's a fucking lock.
OTTWAY: Let's bundle Burke up and dig in against these trees.
The snow's deep enough.
l'm worried if we lose this fire, we'll all freeze.
(WlND HOWLlNG)
OTTWAY: Burke, wake up! Come on. Move your arms!
Let me see you move your arms! Come on, move!
Burke, wake up! Burke, you big bastard ! Wake up!
Don't sleep, you hear me? Don't sleep! Wake up!
Come on, Burke!
Burke, come on, wake up! Burke!
Burke! Burke! Wake up!
Wake up! Wake up!
Wake up, bugger! Wake up.
Don't be afraid.
HENRlCK: What is it?
Guys, get up. Up.
What is it? ls it them?
Saw marks.
These trees have been logged.
(WATER RUNNlNG)
That's water.
That sounds like a river.
(COUGHlNG)
DlAZ: You gotta be shitting me.
OTTWAY: The river must be a good size if we can hear it all the way up here.
HENRlCK: At least if we're following a river,
we got a better chance of finding shelter.
DlAZ: Who's climbing down that?
TALGET: l can't. There's no way l can do that.
OTTWAY: Well, we can't go back.
There's no way we can go back.
Those trees, though.
TALGET: What trees?
OTTWAY: Right over there.
Get a tether of some kind,
secure it between here and there, we can climb down.
Guys, it's simple.
lt's the wolves or those trees.
HENRlCK: You're not talking about jumping off the cliff?
OTTWAY: lt's an idea. l didn't say it was a good one.
HENRlCK: He's talking about jumping off the cliff.
(SPlTS)
TALGET: This will wind up being one of those wild stories you tell at a party,
pretty girl on your lap.
All right. Are you ready?
Yeah, why not?
Don't get a good running start, get a great one.
Now you'll freefall about 30 feet,
but it's gonna feel like 30,000.
ls this supposed to pass for a pep talk?
When we feel this go taut, we'll take up the slack
to stop you from hitting too hard.
You get in there.
l'll figure it out.
lf you gotta go, this is a pretty cool way to go, bro.
Better a flying leap than those fucking wolves.
(MOUTHlNG)
l hope there's something down there.
(BREATHlNG HEAVlLY)
Fuck.
OTTWAY: Go! Go, go! Go! Go!
(DlAZ GRUNTS)
(GROANS)
Fuck!

Which one of you fuckers. . .
(SCREAMS)
OTTWAY: Grab him ! Grab him !
DlAZ: Pull me up!
Fuck, pull me back!
Henrick?
Henrick, you in there?
HENRlCK: Yeah ! l'm all right!
Anyone with an urge to go first?
Talget? Diaz?
l'll go.
OTTWAY: Don't stay out there too long.
DlAZ: Henrick!
Make sure that thing is secure!
HENRlCK: lt's secure, but l don't know how long it's gonna last!
Don't spend a lot of time out there!
You all right?
You go.
What about your hand? l'm all right.
Go ahead, just haul me in if anything goes wrong.
Yeah.
l just fucking hate heights, man. lt flips me out.
Well, then you go, l'll stay and make sure. . .
No, no. l'm good. You cross.
Seriously, give me a minute, get my head around it.
DlAZ: All right, l'm through ! l'm across!
l'm coming !
All right, l'm coming across now.
Okay.
Come on, you can do this.
You can do this. You can do this.
Come on.
OTTWAY: Talget, are you ready?

DlAZ: Talget, stop fucking around !

DlAZ: They're fucking killing him !
OTTWAY: Get to him ! DlAZ: Go! Go!
Go. . . Get down there!
DlAZ: They're taking him !
Talget!
They fucking took him.
HENRlCK: No, no!
Ow! Fuck! Ah !
(DlAZ GROANlNG)
DlAZ: Talget!
HENRlCK: They took him. Talget!
They fucking took him. They took him.
DlAZ: My knee. My fucking knee.

They're not gonna let us go, are they?
(WOLVES HOWLlNG)
What do you do?
Fuck!
(DlAZ GROANS)
Fuck, fuck.
(BREATHlNG HEAVlLY)
Forget it.
Whatever l had in the tank, l used back there.
l'm beat.
l just wanna sit.
l just wanna
stop this bullshit.
Fucking leg.
My ankle's fucked.
OTTWAY: Diaz, don't sit down.
Don't sit down.
l know. l know.
l don't wanna argue.
l just wanna rest.
l just had the clearest thought.
l'm done.
HENRlCK: Come on, man. Up.
There could be a cabin downriver right there.
That's a mile up, at least, brother.
l can't walk that, man.
l can't walk 50 feet.
Fuck it.
l gave it a shot.
What the fuck, man? Are you serious?
l really thought this fucking watch would work.
(SCOFFS)
Does it slide over you?
You told Lewenden back in the plane that it slides over you.
Death.
That it was warm.
ls that true? Yeah.
We carry him.
We put a litter together and slide him down the banks.
(GROANS)
l'm not going anywhere, Henrick.
l don't want to.
l don't need to.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
ls that it? You're just gonna sit there? ls that what you want?
Yeah. After what we survived?
That's exactly why.
What l got waiting for me back there?
l'm gonna sit on a drill all day.
Get drunk all night. That's my life?
Turn around and look at that.
l feel like that's all for me.
How do l beat that?
When would it ever be better?
l can't explain it.
l don't have the words, brother.
(DlAZ SOBBlNG)
My first name is John.
My first name is Pete.

You look like a Pete. (LAUGHS)

Of course that's your name.

Thank you, John.
Thank you.

l'm not afraid.
Can l ask you something?
Yeah.
Where were you going that night?
That last night in camp.
MAN: Get the fuck out of here!
HENRlCK: At the bar.
You had your rifle,
you went out...
OTTWAY: My shift.
No.
You worked that morning, I remember.
l went out, yeah.
With your rifle.
Did you follow me?
HENRlCK: No.
But I never thought I'd see you alive again.
Back there with Diaz.
That look he had.
l've only seen it one other time.
On you.
That last night in camp.
lt really doesn't matter now, does it?
No, l don't suppose it does.
