Hawkins is getting into a Hazmat suit)

[18 hours after the bombs]

CUT TO:
[RICHMOND RANCH CELLAR]

BILL: She's still not talking

BILL: I get that. I mean I'm a cop. I've never killed anybody. She's a school teacher

BONNIE: Where’s STANLEY?

BONNIE: Jake, my brother doesn't know about the radiation

JAKE: When the rain stops, he'll be back. Don't worry

JAKE: BONNIE, I know STANLEY. He'll be fine

JIMMY: JAKE, I got your brother. He's with your dad

JAKE: Finally. (Over Radio) ERIC, how's dad?

ERIC: He's good. The town halls shelter is secure. Listen JAKE, where are you?

JAKE: I'm at the RICHMONDS. As soon as the rain stops, get every digging tool you can find and get to the mine. I had to blow the entrance to keep the rain out. The people have been sealed up way too long. I'm more worried the explosion put some debris into the ventilator

ERIC: Enough to slow it down?

JAKE: Enough to shut it down. We've gotta get them out

ERIC: We can't reach anyone at the mine. We have no radio contact with anyone there

CUT TO:
[Mines]

HEATHER: Here honey, take a little sip. Okay, just a little. Pass it on

(They are passing a drink around)

HEATHER: Good you guys. Good. Good, good, good

HEATHER: Wait a second, I'll be right back

(HEATHER gets up and walks over to MR. RENNIE)

HEATHER: Excuse me? Hey! How you holding up?

MR. RENNIE: I uh I think the students are taking it better than I am. They just know there's nothing to be afraid of. For them it's just like a bad field trip. Sorry....I'm just having a hard time breathing.

HEATHER: Here, take a little water

HEATHER: Yeah, good

MR. RENNIE: I have to get outside

HEATHER: Soon, Soon

LUCAS: is MR. RENNIE okay?

HEATHER: He's going to be fine. We just need to give him a little bit of room, okay? Hold on

MR. RENNIE: I can't do this! Gotta get outside!

HEATHER: It-it's Okay. Deep breath. Deep breath

CUT TO:
[RICHMOND CELLAR]

JAKE: You doin' alright?

JAKE: Heck of a question...

JAKE: Alright...

EMILY: How do you know the rains radioactive? Denver's so far away

JAKE: Well, we don't know how many bombs there were. We don’t

(Something alerts them, they look up)

(BONNIE notices their sudden movement)

BONNIE: Who is it?

JAKE: Someone’s up in the house.

EMILY: Not more prisoners...

(STANLEY enters the cellar)

BONNIE: STANLEY!

STANLEY: BONNIE thank god!

(BONNIE and STANLEY go to hug each other)

JAKE: No! Hey, hey! No! STANLEY don’t touch her. The rain may be radioactive

(On the Radio)

JAKE: APRIL. STANLEY seems to be okay. I'd say he was in it for about 20 minutes

STANLEY: Yeah, I was out at my cousins, helping them put the livestock up. Got caught in it

APRIL: Is he vomiting?

JAKE: No, he's not

APRIL: Okay. Do you have any iodine there?

JAKE: BONNIE, iodine?

STANLEY: Hey, what's with all the tanks?

BILL: What tanks?

STANLEY: On my way home, I passed a line of tanks. They were hauling ass towards DENVER

JAKE: STANLEY, how many tanks did you see?

STANLEY: Five, maybe?

JAKE: Where?

STANLEY: They were over the ridge. I couldn't tell you exactly where they were, but I was on FARS MILL road near I-70

JAKE: APRIL, we have iodine

APRIL: He's going to need to take a couple of tablespoons. But it tastes vile. So do you have any bread? Something he could take with it?

JAKE: We're in a cellar. All we've got is canned peaches and pickles

APRIL: Not the pickles. Maybe the peaches

STANLEY: JAKE. Just give me the iodine.

APRIL: The SECOND that the rain breaks, rush him to the clinic

APRIL: And Jake? If he throws up in the next couple of hours, get BONNIE out of that room

JAKE: Why?

APRIL: Because... her brothers going to die

CUT TO:
[MINES]

HEATHER: Just concentrate on breathing, please

MR. RENNIE: I can't. I've got to get out of here

HEATHER: I know. Wait

MR. RENNIE: I've got to get out of here!

HEATHER: MR. RENNIE please, just concentrate on your breathing

HEATHER: Look at me. Just control it. There you go

MR. RENNIE: I've gotta get out of here

HEATHER: I know. MR

MR. RENNIE: I've got to get out of here!

HEATHER: RENNIE

MR. RENNIE: I don't want to die down here! Get me out of here!

GRAY: Look everybody, calm down

MR. RENNIE: I don't want to be here

GRAY: There's nothing to worry about

GRAY: There's children SCOTT

HEATHER: GRAY, he's claustrophobic

SHEP: It's me. It's SHEP

MR. RENNIE: I've got to...

SHEP: Just focus. Try to focus man. Try to focus

MR. RENNIE: I've got to get out of here!

GRAY: We've got to get him away from

MR. RENNIE: I've got to get out of here!

PEOPLE: Come on

MR. RENNIE: I can't breathe! I don't want to die down here! Get me out of here!

HEATHER: Please be careful

GRAY: Stay back!

MR. RENNIE: I don't' want to die down here!

MR. RENNIE: I don't want to die, I don't want to die. Let me out of here! Please!

CUT TO:
[TOWN HALL SHELTER]

JOHNSTON: (coughs)

APRIL: JAKE wants to talk to you

GAIL: His coughs getting much worse

APRIL: Okay, I want you to make it brief

JOHNSTON: Yeah son, what is it?

JAKE: (On radio) DAD, STANLEY saw a line of tanks. Near I-70

JOHNSTON: Well you know there's a National Guard unit to the southwest there in GOODLAND. Maybe they've got a relief effort going

JAKE: We need to get out there and see

JOHNSTON: That could be a dangerous thing to do son

JAKE: Can't just sit around and wait to find out what's happening. I'll go to GOODLAND. Someone should check out TOPEKA

JOHNSTON: Okay Son (Wheezes)

EMILY: I'm going with you

JAKE: What?!

EMILY: I have to find ROGER and GOODLANDS the only….

JAKE: You are in no condition to...

EMILY: I'm going with you, or I'm going by myself

CUT TO:
[Town Hall Shelter]

ERIC: For the last time, you can't smoke here

ERIC: Alright, Waters for everyone here

GAIL: Thank you honey

APRIL: JOHNSTON, I need to take your temperature again

JOHNSTON: Aww you just took it 5 minutes ago. I haven't changed in 5 minutes

ERIC: The Mighty JOHNSTON GREEN, felled by the flu

JOHNSTON: oh here it comes….

ERIC: I don't know if I told you this, but my father is impervious to mere germs

APRIL: Oh really?

JOHNSTON: Yeah, I believe that was the quote

GAIL: First inauguration. Have it all on video

JOHNSTON: It was a joke. I was trying to make.... APRIL don't ever make a mistake, this family will never let you forget it

APRIL: Okay, I'll remember that

JOHNSTON: oh god. Come on

MIMI: I don't like him

MARY: Me neither

CUT TO:
[SKYLAR'S HOUSE]

(DALE is looking at a snow globe that says ‘NIAGARA FALLS’)

SKYLAR: Here.... they're really stale

CUT TO:
[TOWN HALL SHELTER]

GAIL: You know, I keep thinking about how we were kids, and how they used to make us practice hiding under our desks in case of an atomic bomb

JOHNSTON: Yeah... duck and cover

GAIL: that was the first thing I thought of, when I saw that mushroom cloud. Did they have enough time to hide under their desks? It was pretty stupid huh?

JOHNSTON: (coughs)

MARY: ERIC. I'm just a little confused. Your wife isn't really acting like someone who knows her marriage has been dead a long time

ERIC: MARY

MARY: Or did I get the wrong impression?

ERIC: MARY... let's just get through this. Okay?

MARY: Well the next thing you're going to tell me is that she actually does understand you

ERIC: I'm sorry

CUT TO:
[RICHMOND CELLAR]

STANLEY: JAKE! Don't let BONNIE see your lips.

STANLEY: Listen man, if this thing doesn't turn out so good, the thing is BONNIE is still just a kid

JAKE: STANLEY! Don't even, alright? You're going to be fine

STANLEY: My head is pounding, and I feel like I'm going to throw up

(The Rain Stops)

JAKE: (Over radio) ERIC, the rain has stopped

CUT TO:
(Outside Town hall)

WOMAN: Is it okay? Is it okay?

MIMI: What's this black stuff?

MARY: That used to be DENVER

CUT TO:
[RICHMOND CELLAR]

JAKE: BILL, EMILY. Get STANLEY to the medical clinic now

BILL: Okay

JAKE: Find APRIL, she'll know what to do. JIMMY, you're coming with me to the mine, alright?

EMILY: JAKE. I meant what I said, alright?

JAKE: Look, I know I know. I will help you find ROGER. I promise okay? Go! I'll meet you at the medical clinic. ERIC, we're coming to the mine now. We have to dig those people out

CUT TO:
[AT THE MINES]

MAN: It might be over

LADY: Stay there

(Construction crew starts digging)

WOMAN IN CROWD: What was that?

MAN: Maybe somebody's on the other side!

CHIEF CAROLL: Let's get you people out of here

(Crowd Cheers)

ERIC: Alright, everyone. You're going to be okay

JAKE: Alright, we have food and water. There are vehicles waiting to take you to the clinic, alright? Nice and slow, file out. These guys will help you

CHIEF CAROLL: Women and Children first

JAKE: Please, watch your step everyone. Be careful

MAN: It's going to be okay

JAKE: You okay?

HEATHER: I think so

(GRAY and SHEP are carrying Mr. RENNIES dead body)

JAKE: GRAY, what happened?

GRAY: He's dead

HEATHER: What...

CUT TO:
(At the Medical Centre)

JAKE: Hey, hey, how's STANLEY?

APRIL: We're still watching him

JAKE: Where is he?

APRIL: We had to isolate him

JAKE: Where? Where is he?

(APRIL Signals to where he is)

WOMAN: I'm going to find my son

(JAKE enters the room with STANLEY)

JAKE: What the hell...

STANLEY: You like it? It's where they make the contagious kids wait so they don't get chicken pox.

JAKE: Did you throw up?

STANLEY: Yeah, a couple times. Apparently that's what happens when you drink a bottle of iodine. I need to get back to the house. I need to check on the livestock, I need to check on the corn. I need to get out of here

JAKE: There's really nothing you can do right now

BONNIE: He's right. You need to stay

STANLEY: I'm really sick of being poked with needles every time I'm on meds. They'll be sorry when my spider powers kick in. (Makes spider-man noises)

JAKE: Well you're still an idiot, so that's a good sign

MIMI: How bad is it?

APRIL: Well, you're sleep deprived like everyone else. Bring the bandages to 102

MIMI: No! I mean the radiation. Am I dying?

APRIL: Have you vomited?

MIMI: No....should I?

APRIL: You just need some rest. Go home

MIMI: I'd like to. When’s the next flight to DC?

HEATHER: DOCTOR GREEN...

APRIL: Oh, there are a lot of people waiting, if you could just...

HEATHER: I just want to know what happened to my friend. SCOTT RENNIE.

APRIL: It looks like he had a heart attack. I'm sorry...

CUT TO:
[SKYLAR'S HOUSE]

SKYLAR: So what happens if I have three queens, but I only have two jacks?

DALE: I'm out...

SKYLAR: I so bluffed you

DALE: (laughs)

LIST: SKYLAR? You still alive in there?

BOY: SKY, you home?

BOY: Hello? Man I'm starving….

ANOTHER BOY: Look Drew...

LISA: oh my god.

SKYLAR: This is not how it looks

LISA: It sure looks how it looks

LISA: SKYLAR, wait. This guys a weirdo

CUT TO:
[MEDICAL CENTER]

JOHNSTON: I just can't sit around here all day. I've got to find the sheriff and his men, we've got to get he power back on

GAIL: Okay, you're going to stay here as long as it takes

GAIL: Now don't make me take your pants with me

JOHNSTON: I can run this town without my pants

GAIL: Now it wouldn't be the first time

(JAKE Enters)

JAKE: Alright. There's a story I never want to hear

GAIL: Hi sweetheart. How you feeling honey?

JAKE: My leg’s a little sore, but how’s everything here?

GAIL: Your father has the flu

JOHNSTON: It's nothing

JAKE: Did you hear MR. RENNIE died?

JOHNSTON: its terrible

JAKE: I've been thinking. More than anything, this town needs information. We could organize a group of people. Send them out in every direction

GAIL: I don't think anyone should be leaving JERICHO

JAKE: We have to. We can't just sit here in the dark

JOHNSTON: He's right. Makes us too vulnerable

CUT TO:
[MARYS BAR]

JAKE: ABRAMS. You and CROSSFIELD are taking the northern route up to the state police barracks in broken….

GRAY: I can go east to TOPEKA and connect with the State Government, and RIDLEY can head west to DENVER. What's left of it

JAKE: You'll probably run into a ring of FEMA and EMS people before you even get in sight of the city, see what they know

GRAY: And what about you?

EMILY: He's going to WICHITA with me

JAKE: That's right. EMILY and I are taking the southern route. To WICHITA

GRAY: Let's try to radio back as much information as possible along the way

JAKE: That's the plan. Hitting the major cities in each direction, North, South, East, and West

GRAY: The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

JAKE: Let's hope not

MARY: Nope, we've still got static. Try pointing it east. We've got nothing. Keep moving it. Nope. Just static. Just keep trying

ERIC: MARY. Excuse me. MARY!

HAWKINS: Hi... busy place

ERIC: Yeah, although the service isn't what it used to be

MARY: What'll you have?

MARY: oh my god! We got something!

NEWS ANCHOR: (he's speaking in Chinese, talking about the attacks)

MAN: We're losing the feed! Bring it back!

MARY: go back, we had something!

ERIC: Was that KOREAN? Does anybody know?

JAKE: I think it was CHINESE

HAWKINS: MANDARIN

JAKE: The question is, were they just reporting it, or was they behind it?

ERIC: Did STANLEY see if there were any markings on the side of the tank?

JAKE: No

ERIC: Maybe we're being invaded

GRAY: ABRAMS and CROSSFIELD are out. They won't drive into a war zone

ERIC: Yeah, well I don't blame them

ERIC: Look, why don't we put this plan on hold right now. We saw one image, we'll probably see another one

JAKE: Going out is more important than ever alright? If this country is at war, we need to know it

HEATHER: Okay, we have LOS ANGELES, SEATTLE, and PHILADELPHIA. What else did you see on the TV?

MARY: I think SEATTLE'S wrong.

HEATHER: Okay... could it have been PORTLAND?

MARY: I don't think so....

HAWKINS: Hey. I understand you lost some of your men

JAKE: Yeah

HAWKINS: Need a volunteer, I'm available

JAKE: Thanks, mister...

HAWKINS: HAWKINS

JAKE: MR. HAWKINS. You have a family?

HAWKINS: Two kids

JAKE: I think its best we stick to people who don't have families

JAKE: Hey. Em!

HEATHER: umm.... excuse me, MR. CALE? Something’s been bothering me. It's about MR. RENNIE'S death. The mine was full of people from the clinic. How come nobody called for a doctor?

SHEP: I don't want to talk about it

HEATHER: I know you're upset. You guys were close. But he was my friend too. I worked with him for 3 years

GRAY: Hey SHEP, we're heading out for supplies. Why don't you give us a hand?

GRAY: This whole thing has been pretty hard on SHEP. He lost a good friend today. We all did

CUT TO:
[OUTSIDE MARYS BAR]

JAKE: EMILY...

JAKE: Talk to me. Was it the broadcast, because we don't know what any of it means

EMILY: They got WICHITA. ROGER is dead

JAKE: We don't know that

EMILY: I saw it. On the map

JAKE: Your fiancé might've made it

EMILY: How?

JAKE: What if his plane got diverted to... DES MOINA

EMILY: DES MOINES gone

JAKE: EMILY! What if it was OMAHA? Huh? Or TULSA? What if they set down in the middle of a cornfield in NEBRASKA? He could be anywhere

EMILY: Trying to find a place to land. What if it exploded?

JAKE: EMILY!

EMILY: What if he's dead!

JAKE: EMILY!

EMILY: He's gone, and I'm here with you. You were supposed to be the one that was dead. Not him. Leave me alone JAKE. Just go without me

CUT TO:
[GRACIE'S STORE]

DALE: They took everything...

GRACIE: Oh DALE! Thank God! I looked everywhere for you. Are you alright? I was so worried

DALE: I was safe

GRACIE: Good

GAIL: GRACIE?

GRACIE: Oh…. what now?

GAIL: GRACIE?

GRACIE: We're closed GAIL

GRACIE: I'm out of everything

GAIL: That's why I'm here. Some of the folks at the shelter brought some stuff back, and I thought you could use it

GRACIE: That's one box... I'm out of business. My train shipment was supposed to come on Tuesday. Without delivery, these shelves are going to stay as empty as they are right now. I don't have a freezer anymore. Most of this stuff is going to go bad any minute now

GAIL: I know... foods going bad all over town

GRACIE: I need my shipment…. We don't know if we'll ever get the power back on

GAIL: Maybe we should cook it?

GRACIE: What?

GAIL: Yeah. Everything. All of it. As long as it's good enough to eat

CUT TO:
[MEDICAL CENTER]

MIMI: God....

STANLEY: Are you okay?

MIMI: ugh. If you call radiation poisoning okay

STANLEY: Were you out in the rain too?

MIMI: No, it's not the rain. Touched a building when we came out of the shelter

STANLEY: oh...

MIMI: look, you can stop pretending

STANLEY: What do you mean?

MIMI: I audited your farm. Why do you care?

STANLEY: Maybe I'm a nicer person than you?

MIMI: Right...

MIMI: Were you in the rain?

STANLEY: Yeah, for about 20 minutes

MIMI: Well you look pretty good

STANLEY: Thanks. I try to work out....

MIMI: (laughs)

STANLEY: Uhh look, I think I got the worst of it. So as long as I'm okay, you should be fine

MIMI: You're really sweet. And you still owe the IRS $180,000

STANLEY: Yeah, I know

CUT TO:
[TOWN HALL]

MAN: No, no, don't worry about it

GRAY: Every radio needs to be fully charged. We'll stay in contact as long as we can

JOHNSTON: GRAY, all the long range ones are charged. They are in the storage unit

GRAY: Alright, Thanks

GRAY: RIDLEY, why don't you pack up the Geiger counters and the flares and I'll meet you out there

JOHNSTON: GRAY, I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate what you're doing. It's uh... gutsy move, and the whole town thanks you

GRAY: Yeah... thanks

JOHNSTON: What the hell happened out there? I've known SCOTT RENNIE his whole life. He's strong as an Ox. I just don't... I can't believe he's dead

GRAY: He was a good man

JOHNSTON: Heart attack at his age...

GRAY: No, it wasn't a heart attack that killed him

JOHNSTON: What do you mean?

GRAY: It was poor planning

JOHNSTON: What are you talking about?

Gray: What I'm saying is, none of this would've happened if that clinic shelter had been properly ventilated. You have a lot of people to answer to

JOHNSTON: Alright, that's enough

GRAY: No, that's not nearly enough. I get back here, there's going to be an investigation. Hundreds of people could've died because you dropped the ball

JOHNSTON: We'll talk about this in my office

GRAY: You dropped the ball and it killed SCOTT RENNIE. There’s….

JOHNSTON: IN MY OFFICE! NOW!

CUT TO:
[JOHNSTON'S OFFICE]

(JOHNSTON punches him)

JOHNSTON: Right now, these people need our leadership. I will not have you tearing this town apart! Now when all of this is over, if you and I are still alive you investigate your ass off. In the mean time, if I hear any more talk out of you, you and I are going to have a problem. Do we understand each other?

CUT TO:
(EXTERIOR: TOWN HALL)

GAIL: Where’s EMILY?

JAKE: She's not going

GAIL: Good... you're not going alone are you?

JAKE: Yeah.... Don't give me that look

GAIL: What look?

JAKE: You know what look, that look

GAIL: Hey, for the 7500 times I've watched you drive away, not knowing if you were going to come home, I’ve earned the look

JAKE: I'm coming back

GRAY: Let's go!

GRAY: RIDLEY! C'mon

GRAY: SHEP...

SHEP: I'm taking RIDLEYS place. Going to DENVER

GRAY: You don't have to do this. What about your family?

SHEP: Gotta get out of here

GRAY: SHEP, you'll get past this

SHEP: Yeah?

CUT TO:
[MARYS BAR]

MARY: Hey, HEATHER. Oh. SHEP left this for you

(A letter saying ‘Mrs. Heather Lisinsky’)

HEATHER: Thanks

SHEP: Dear HEATHER, I want you to know the truth about SCOTT RENNIE. It was my fault. GRAY wanted me to keep him quiet and his heart went out. I should have called for a doctor, but I was scared, I let him die. I'll never forgive myself. You were a good friend to SCOTT, a better friend than I ever was. - SHEP

CUT TO:
[Outside of town hall]

GRAY: Alright guys

(GRAY takes off in what appears to be a GMC Envoy, heading towards TOPEKA)

(Someone takes off in a Red Jeep going in the opposite direction of GRAY)

SOMEONE: Be careful

(SHEP takes off in a Chevrolet SUV)

(JAKE takes off in a Truck right behind SHEP)

CUT TO:
[TOWN HALL]

BILL: Well, they should be 50 miles south by now

ERIC: JAKE, are you still reading me? JAKE?

ERIC: Lost them...

ERIC: SHEP, are you there? SHEP?

SHEP: ERIC, do me a favour?

ERIC: I missed that last one SHEP, can you say it again?

SHEP: Tell them I'm sorry. Tell the family I'm sorry

ERIC: You're breaking up SHEP. Hey GREY, did you catch that?

GRAY: (lying) Nope... No I didn't

CUT TO:
(JAKE gets out of his truck, and finds an Airplane)

[OUTSIDE TOWN HALL]

WOMAN: Mom, here you go. Over here

GIRL: We're over here!

CUT TO:
[TOWN HALL]

JAKE: Now that would make it about 45 miles. So in about an hour

ERIC: JAKE, what are you doing back?

BILL: You should be in WICHITA about now

JAKE: SMOKEY HILL BRIDGE is blocked

ERIC: What is that?

JAKE: It's a flight data recorder

BILL: I thought they were supposed to be black

ERIC: Where'd you get it?

JAKE: A couple of pilots used the highway as a landing strip. Mixed results, this was the only one I could get

GAIL: Were there any survivors?

JAKE: There was a commuter plane that didn't make it. A 757 that was empty

GAIL: Well where are they? Where'd they go?

BILL: How do we listen to this?

JAKE: Do you have that old (??) laying around?

BILL: Yeah

GAIL: Your father needs to hear this. Let me go get him

ERIC: You okay?

JAKE: Yeah….a little freaked

ERIC: Dads here

JAKE: Gone through most of this recording from the plane that crashed. This is the last 30 seconds or so. A lot of background noise. You can hear pilots from planes in the area talking to each other

JOHNSTON: Wait. The kids….

GAIL: (To the kids) C'mon girls, let's go

PILOT1: Is there anyone on this frequency? There’s no reply from ATCC, please reply, we’re 827 in emergency descending, coordinates for approach. Give me full flaps (??) pump

PILOT2: This is Chinook 116 heavy, MR HANOFF to KANSAS CITY ATC. Does anyone read us? Over

PILOT3: CHINOOK 116, this is TWIN 56 we read you

PILOT2: We’re bingo fuel and lost all IFR heading out of CHICAGO. Have tried all frequencies. There's no one out there. There’s another plane (recording fades as HEATHER speaks)

HEATHER: What does that mean?

JAKE: They're out of gas, and blind

A PILOT: This is PRIMARY 221, I've got a mushroom cloud, 16km in height somewhere northwest over DENVER

A PILOT: I've got a visual over two separate plumes One over KANSAS CITY, and one south somewhere in TEXAS. Does anyone read ATC

A PILOT: Negative, there is no ATCC any more

JAKE: There's no traffic control

HAWKINS: That is 10,000 planes, and no place to land. That's about a million people in the air

(On the tape, there is the sound a jet planes going by)

PILOT: Were those F-16s?

PILOT: Do you have a visual?

PILOT: Confirmed. Probably MISSOURI GUARD 131st out of LAMBERT. Those guys are hauling ass somewhere. CHINOOK 116, this is TWIN 56. We found a stretch of highway long enough. Follow us in we setting down. On Final Approach Stand by. Here we go. Flaps, I need more flaps. We're losing it, I can't hold it. ... We’re flat here. Pull it up! PULL IT UP!!!

CO-PILOT: I CAN’T!!! (Sounds of a impact)

(JAKE rewinds tape and replays)

PILOT: CHINOOK 116, this is TWIN 56. We found a stretch of highway long enough. Follow.... (Faint talking in the background of the recording)

(JAKE rewinds tape and replays again)

PILOT: CHINOOK 116, this is TWIN 56. We found a stretch.... (Faint tape background a little stronger)

(Jake rewinds tape and replays, once again)

PILOT: CHINOOK 116, this is TWIN 56. We found a stretch of highway long enough. Follow us (Faint tape background, now stronger. You hear faint male voice say) . . . TRAN-SHORE 724. We've set down in a field

(JAKE rewinds tape)

JAKE: EMILY, come here.

JAKE: ROGER was on TRAN-SHORE 724 right? Listen

(JAKE plays rewound tape)

VARIOUS PILOTS ON TAPE: This is Primary 221. My CO-PILOT is blind. (Other voices also heard, most illegible except for small segments) We’re going to burn off some fuel….

EMILY (speaking over tape in background): JAKE, what is this?

JAKE (speaking over tape in background): Listen, background chatter

PILOTS: This is CHINOOK 116 (voice fades and another pilot comes in louder and clearer) This is TRANSHORE 724, we've set down in a field. GPS malfunction, think we're north of KANSAS. Minor injuries

JAKE: He's alive. He's alive

CUT TO:
[HAWKINS HOUSE]

DARCY: ROBERT….There's uh there's music outside

HAWKINS: Yeah?

DARCY: Yeah, the party. Sounded like SAM COOKE from here, but uh....there's a chance it could be KENNY ROGERS

HAWKINS: Oh lord

DARCY: ROBERT, the kids would like to go

HAWKINS: To the party?

DARCY: Yes

HAWKINS: We're not ready.

DARCY: ROBERT….

HAWKINS: No. no

CUT TO:

GRACIE: Well I'm glad there was enough food for everyone....I just wish someone would've said Thank You

GAIL: Thanks honey

APRIL: It was unbelievable. The hospital was packed

HEATHER: Thanks

HEATHER: She looks so much better. You really made her happy

HEATHER: Well, I'd say this makes you even

JAKE: Not even close

GAIL: You haven't said two words all night

JOHNSTON: I'm just taking it all in. It might be a long time before we see JERICHO like this again

ERIC: (gasps, as if startled awake) I've gotta go!

MARY: What time is it?

ERIC: It's a little past midnight

MARY: You have to go....

ERIC: Yeah, I should probably go
