  • TV NEWSCASTER (OFFSCREEN): Boeing 777 mystery.

  • JFK in lockdown.

  • Terrorist scare or simple power outage?

  • Hour four passes and still no communication with--

  • -So what is it, Barnes?

  • SARS?

  • Bird flu?

  • Did someone die on the plane?

  • TV NEWSCASTER (OFFSCREEN): Authorities aren't speaking

  • yet, but a HazMat team has arrived on scene, so we'll

  • just have to wait and see.

  • KENT (OFFSCREEN): The pilot was in communication with the

  • tower until six minutes after touchdown.

  • Then everything went dead.

  • No communication, no movement, no noise.

  • The techs tell me their equipment picks up nothing.

  • It's completely silent inside the plane.

  • The shades are all drawn.

  • The exterior emergency releases appear jammed shut

  • from the inside.

  • Its been near five hours and the thing is sealed up tighter

  • than a coffin.

  • -Possibly some kind of toxin.

  • Maybe terrorism.

  • You have no samples yet?

  • -Nothing Director Barnes wants all press information to come

  • from the CDC.

  • He wants you, Dr. Goodweather, out in front of

  • reporters in an hour.

  • Be right, not overdramatic.

  • Planes and possible terrorism are a huge public anxiety.

  • -Christ, Kent.

  • Can't he wait till we see what the hell is going on?

  • -No comment.

  • -How long was it from when the plane landed till it went

  • dark, Nora?

  • -Only six minutes.

  • Whatever it was must have overpowered them immediately.

  • NORA (OFFSCREEN): All the shades are drawn.

  • Why would they all be drawn?

  • -Dr. Goodweather.

  • -You.

  • Why did you wait so long to call us?

  • Anything like this happens, you

  • immediately call HazMat first.

  • And Centers for Disease Control second.

  • You got me?

  • Has anyone gone on the plane yet and have they been

  • quarantined?

  • -No.

  • No one.

  • We can't even get the doors opened.

  • It's like they're sealed from the inside.

  • -Eph, the window there!

  • It's open.

  • It wasn't before.

  • -What is it, Nora?

  • -Yo!

  • We've got entry.

  • We were having a hell of a time.

  • Then the emergency door--

  • The seal just popped.

  • All on its own.

  • -Or somebody inside opened it.

  • -Well.

  • Let's suit up and see what we see.

  • -Zack must not have been happy.

  • -He took it better than me, I think.

  • I had to drop him with Kelly.

  • Nora, I--

  • -Save it.

  • -Once we're clear, you back out and let my team take over.

  • And nobody leaves the scene without going through the

  • medical tent.

  • -Got it, Doc.

  • OK, on three.

  • One, two, three!

  • [FOOTSTEPS]

  • [RADIO CHATTER]

  • -They're all dead here, Eph.

  • No signs of panic or trauma, though.

  • Like they all just-- fell asleep.

  • -Keep checking, Nora.

  • This makes no sense.

  • -Gas, maybe?

  • -Possibly.

  • Though no signs of struggle or vomiting.

  • Everyone's still seat belted.

  • Christ.

  • Nora, get Jimmy and Kate up here to take air, carpet, and

  • seat samples for testing.

  • NARRATOR: Able to find no cause of death for the victims

  • on the plane, Dr. Ephraim Goodweather and Dr. Nora

  • Martinez had the bodies moved to morgues across New York for

  • further investigation.

  • They discovered that the bodies, which radiate heat

  • even while dead, now ooze with white blood.

  • A small incision in the victim's neck is the only

  • evidence of trauma.

  • But it's slight.

  • Aside from a strange black cabinet that was found on the

  • plane, the doctors have no clues as to what's gone wrong.

  • -My name is Abraham Setrakian.

  • What I have to say, Doctor, is very important.

  • Critical.

  • There's no much time.

  • -Yes.

  • Well, you can call my office and make an appointment.

  • -The bodies.

  • You found them not decomposing as they should.

  • Changing, yes?

  • White blood?

  • -What did you say?

  • Where are you hearing this from?

  • -And a coffin?

  • Did you find the coffin?

  • If you still have it, then you still have him.

  • You must destroy it.

  • Right away.

  • Disperse the soil.

  • -Sir, please.

  • Slow down.

  • Slow.

  • Down.

  • What are you saying?

  • -You!

  • You will listen to me, yes?

  • It will be dark in less than an hour.

  • The bodies, they must be burned.

  • -OK.

  • Yes.

  • OK.

  • Please, just tell me why.

  • -That's the guy.

  • He tried to sneak in earlier.

  • -Sir, please step this way.

  • -An ancient truce has been broken.

  • He is here, now.

  • In the new world.

  • Here!

  • In the city!

  • -Who?

  • Who's here?

  • -Sir?

  • -An abomination!

  • A walking, devouring abomination!

  • Do you understand?

  • -Hey!

  • OK, that's it.

  • Let's go.

  • -Ultraviolet light.

  • Go over the bodies with ultraviolet light

  • and you will see.

  • Hurry, Doctor, before it's too late.

  • -You ready to see if the old man was crazy?

  • -I pray he's crazy.

  • Oh, God.

  • Jesus Christ, Eph.

  • What makes this?

  • -I'll be goddamned if I know.

  • This is the seat where the little girl, Emma, was.

  • You never forget the kids.

  • It must be all over the bodies.

  • -Something came through here.

  • -We need to find that old man.

  • TV NEWSCASTER (OFFSCREEN): The CDC is still investigating.

  • Family and friends mourn the death of 8-year-old Emma

  • Gilbarton this evening.

  • School friends held a candlelight

  • vigil for their classmate.

  • Family members and close friends are here at the home

  • of Emma's father, Gary Gilbarton.

  • Gary was in mourning after the loss of his wife and daughter,

  • and understandably wanted their home to remain private.

  • It's not 24 hours since the tragedy of Flight 753, but its

  • impact has been felt far and wide.

  • Tragedies like this affect not just victims, but family

  • members, friends, and neighbors as well.

  • Let's bring our town grief counselor,

  • Dr. Macaulay Shaffer.

  • Dr. Shaffer?

  • -She wasn't a goddamn soundbite.

  • [CREAK]

  • -Emma?

  • Emma?

  • What is it, sweetheart?

  • Are you hungry?

  • Don't worry.

  • We'll get you whatever you want.

  • Everything's going to be all right now.

  • NARRATOR: Having found the evidence that the old man's

  • information was correct, Ephraim and Nora begin to

  • agree something is strange about this virus.

  • They find the old man, Abraham Setrakian, and he introduces

  • them to a new "v word," vampire.

  • Setrakian can show them additional proof about the

  • oncoming vampire plague if they take him to the house of

  • one of the victims from the airplane.

  • -So you're saying all those bodies in the morgue have just

  • gotten up and gone home?

  • -The creatures operate on instinct at first.

  • They need to seek nourishment.

  • When they wake, the vestiges of who they were drive them to

  • seek out those that are closest to them, those that

  • are imprinted on their psyche.

  • Their dear ones.

  • -I remembered this girl from the plane.

  • Emma was her name.

  • She couldn't have been older than eight.

  • -Come.

  • Here.

  • The dead are not much for closing doors.

  • -Black light.

  • -Black light is merely UVA waves.

  • Revealing, but harmless.

  • UVB is stronger and can cause sunburn or cancer.

  • This is UVC shortwave, used for sterilization.

  • Very harmful to humans, but to the vampire,

  • it's weapons grade.

  • -Oh, crap.

  • -He has turned.

  • Stand back, Dr. This must be done.

  • -Wait!

  • He's just lying there.

  • [CREAKING]

  • -She is returning.

  • Quickly, she must not escape us.

  • Now!

  • Back!

  • Nora, the doors!

  • -I got them.

  • Professor, look out!

  • [RATTLING GASP]

  • -Professor, please hurry.

  • [SPEAKING LATIN]

  • -Quickly, Dr. Goodweather.

  • Hand me the lamp.

  • -Nora!

  • It's OK.

  • It's OK.

  • -It's not.

  • -My God, Nora.

  • What is happening?

  • -I don't know.

  • But this is not the way to do this.

  • If there are 200 dead and each one is out converting how many

  • others for the second night in a row, they're

  • spreading like a virus.

  • We can't do this alone.

  • -What's Barnes going to say?

  • -Well, if he doesn't say, let's call out the National

  • Guard, I think we're all in big trouble.
