Yes, I get the ball for a whole hour.
Done.
Curtis.
Is it time?
Not yet, Tanya.
Soon.
Red letter?
Yeah, it's the one we've been waiting for.
Our informant gave us a name.
N, A, M. ..
Nam Koong Min Soo.
He' a security expert. He's in the prison section now.
Wait you're joking right? He's in prison?
Hey, out of here.
No, am just saying, what kind of chance do we have.
Edgar.
I just think, if this guy is a security expert, why can't he just break himself?...
That's enough!
Go!
Lets go, Tim.
Come on, let go.
Edgar just wants to help you know.
Thinks the world of you.
He shouldn't worship me the way he does, I'm not who he thinks I am.
Few of us never are.
Well, we're here.
Tail section. Quarantine section. Prison section.
Gate.
4 seconds, when all 3 sections are open at once.
We have 4 seconds, to go through 3 gates
and bust Nam out.
Then Nam gets us the rest of the way.
Our fate depends on this man.
Yeah.
We can get him to cooperate, he can take us all the way to the front of the train.
Very front section?
Yeah.
From here, right to the front of the train.
Everything in one stroke.
We control the engine, we control the world
Without that, we have nothing.
All past revolution's have failed, because they couldn't take the engine.
What are you saying?
This time we take the engine.
Then what?
We kill him.
Wilford?
You should run the rain now, not wilford.
I'm a shadow, of my former shadow.
My day was decades ago.
How old is Gilliam?
shut up, Edgar.
Listen am saying that I want that to happen,that not what am saying.
What I mean is, he will die someday.
And when that happens, you're gonna have to take over.
You're gonna have to run the train.
I am not a leader.
I don't know.
I think you'll be pretty good, if you ask me.
Hey, edgar.
How far back can you remember?
I don't know, like what?
Your mother, you remember her?
I can remember her face
every once in a while.
But it's not clear.
Do not move!
- Everybody stay in your place. - Don't fucking look at me!
Get down!..keep down
Medical examination. All kids.. all the kids come with me.
-Why? -It's just a medical check.
flowing good.
All the kids...
- All the kids? - Yeah that's right, just come through.
Stay back there ma'am. Just stay back there....
Hello, what's this? One more, yep no..no... all needs..
Nah..nah we don't need to do that, there's nothing wrong with him.
We'll just do a medical check sir, you just step back.. Go, come on.
It's alright, come join the others ok, there you go.
You, go and check.
Don't move!
Go through baby, go..... No..
That's her baby!
Tim!
Andy!
Give me back my Andy!
Give me my son, you fucking bitch!
Andy!
Let him go!
Timmy!..
At this altitude, we need only
7 minutes.
7 minutes, allotted for your speech sir.
This is so disappointing.
No..no we don't need all that, we've only 7 minutes.
Passengers...
This is not a shoe.
This is disorder.
This is, size 10 chaos.
This...See this.
This is death.
In this locomotive we call home, there is one thing
That between our warm hearts, and the bitter cold.
Clothing?
Shields, No, order.
Order is the barrier, that holds back the frozen death.
we must all of us, on this train of life
remain in our relative station.
We must each of us, occupy..
our preordained particular, position
Would you wear a shoe on your head?
Of course, you wouldn't wear a shoe on your head
A shoe doesn’t belong on your head.
A shoe belongs on your foot.
A hat, belongs on your head.
I am a hat. You are a shoes.
I belong on a head, you belong on a foot.
Yes, so it is.
In the beginning, order was prescribed by your tickets.
First class, economy, and free loaders like you.
Eternal order, is prescribed by the Sacred Engine.
All things flow from, the Sacred Engine.
All things in there place.
All passengers in their section.
All water flowing, all heat raising
pays homage to the Sacred Engine
in it's own, particular
preordained, position
So it is.
Now, as in the beginning
I, belong to the front.
You, belong to the tail.
When the foot, seeks the place for the head,
a sacred line is crossed.
Know your place.
Keep your place.
Be a shoe!
Well we have thir.. 42 seconds left.
So, a we can go to a comment, of Mr. Wilford,
the, divine keeper of the Sacred Engine!
Sir, Mr Wilford?
Are you there?
Are you there sir?
Oh it's breaking up, ah.
Oh well.
Mr. Wilford's a very busy man.
So it is.
Are we just gonna watch?
- Not now. - I'm not gonna fucking just sit here...
Ah, am alright.
Stop, stop right there, sit down!
Put that useless gun down, put it away..
Long time no see, Mr. Gilliam.
It's a pleasure!
You look healthy.
He's fine.
Minister Mason, please deliver a message to Mr. Wilford.
Certainly, what should I say.
Tell him, he and I need to talk.
Well,
you can talk to me.
Mr Wilford has no reason to visit here.
Not here .
At the front.
Your son will be a hero, I promise.
Or daughter, whatever it is.
I got it, I got it.
Your contribution has been duly noted, thanks
I'm so sorry to interrupt you, while you're praying.
What you doing man, I'm so sorry,
Look there's your buddha, thanks very much.
Move!..move! move!
Stop fooling around!
I've got a better batch.
Stronger, fresh, uncut.
Wanna try some?
How many protein blocks, for 10 rocks of uncut Kronol?
They don't have bullets.
Why do you say that?
You remember what Mason said, "She said put down that useless gun"
She meant,
She wouldn't give the order to shoot me.
No.
No, I think the guns are literally useless.
They used up all their bullets 4 years ago, on the last revolt.
Bullets are extinct.
If you're wrong,
we could be finished before we even start.
I think we should be patient.
Wait for the next red letter.
Ensemble. Left.
Right.
No, not yet. Up..up. Now left.
Hello..Andrew
Andrew!
Wake up!
Rise and shine.
When you dream too much of the sun, you forget the trees.
I believe this is your son.
I'm sorry, it's not very good.
It's not my best work. It's a bit too dark but.
If you look very deep into her eyes, you can see a little bit of hope.
What about my boy? You got one of Timmy?
Oh yes, Tanya.
Easy..easy, come out this easy, you'll hurt yourself.
Here,,here you go, Timmy.
Look at him.
My little smirk.
Curtis, you gotta let me come with you.
No, Tanya, I'm sorry.
You will be if you don't let me come.
I'm going to the front and am gonna make that bitch, sorry she put her hands on my boy.
Make this one tight.
You know am stronger than all these, skinny-ass soldiers anyway.
Please.
Shit! What's going on?
Change of schedule boys, we'll be back.
Now or never! We're doing it now!
Do not panic, we're doing it now! Stick to the plan.
Hide that! Hide it in your clothes. Hide your weapons in your clothes!
Head check.. Hey.
Line up.
Alright, sit down. 1..
2...
3..
What the fuck do we do?
5..6..keep going
I've had enough, of this protein block bullshit!
Yeah, this is bullshit!
- We're fucking hungry man. - We want chicken.
We're not gonna sit down, for this sheit!
We want chicken!...
Quiet!, be Quiet!
Calm down, it's okay!
You want him fucking dead? Is that it?
Keep quiet!
Still going for it, are we?
Come on, let's go!
Lets do it!
The Riffles!
No, we can overwhelm them.
We easily out number their bullets.
This is it.
Curtis come on.
We're out of time mate, you got to do it now.
They've got no bullets!
Keep going!.. keep going!..
Close the damn gate!
Shut it!
I'm fine, Grey. You go now.
Fuck.
Nam Koong Min Soo. Kronol addict.
That explains a lot, doesn’t it.
Hurry up, Edgar.
Hurry up?
So sorry for keeping you all waiting.
So obviously I work here, or something.
Open it.
Here we go.
Hey!
Kronol head.
So this is kronol? I hear it's pretty big, in the front section.
Careful, it's how these guys hallucinate.
It's industrial waste.
And it's highly flammable.
Are you Nam Koong Min Soo? security specialist?
Did you design all the door locks, and security systems on the train?
Look at him man, he's gone, look at his eyes.
He's fried his brain with that fucking sheit.
Are, you, Nam?
Nam, are you listening?
Yes, I'm listening...
whore.
This is not "Nehru" is "Nam". Namgoung Minsoo shit.
Name Namgoung, name Minsoo, ass hole.
Unknown words found.
Please try again with correct vocabulary.
We need your help.
What for?
We're going to the front,
and we need you to open up the gates.
And if I refuse?
Uncut. Straight from the barrel.
Every door you open.
You get 1 lump of Kronol.
Jesus...
Marlboro Light?
I can't believe it.
Cigarettes Have been extinct, for more than 10 years now.
You want a toke, ass hole?
It's too good for shit like you.
Am gonna make this real simple, for you.
You help us, you get your drug.

My daughter, Yona. To move forward, we'll need her.
So you're coming with us?
For each door, I want 2 blocks of Kronol.
She's an addict too?
Nobody's there.
Kronol?
Look at all these beds. Where is everybody?
Looks like they left in a hurry.

This can't be a window?
It's still cold.
Death.
All dead.
Alright!
Lets go everyone. Stay focus, we didn't come here for this.

He's running.

Finito sayonara they ain't coming back. so now I gotta do it...
WOW! manually.
So that's how it's made?

Wow, look at them all.
And you do some nice work.
That's right man, there's you food, there's you protein blocks.

Why do you have this? Who gave this to you?
They just, leave em for me, man I..
I put em in the protein block, I..I send them along.
That's it.
WATER
The water supply section?
Yeah, it's just a few cars up.
It's where the, a the water is cleansed and recycled.
It's one of the most, crucial sections of the train.
If we take it, we have the upper hand?
We don't even have to go to the very front.
We control the water,
we control the negotiation.
Excuse, sorry to bother you there, can I get you
a glass of water, or something to speed this up?
Listen would you get on with it, man! You're keep us all fucking waiting!
This is my fault?
Yeah, you are.
Although you, have been smelling that flammable sheit
that time, is probably a distant fucking concept for you isn't it?
Of course, I do it for the Kronol.
Here we go again. Kronol this, Kronol that.
Christ almighty man, do some fucking work!
It is you who give me.
Are you a bit thick? That's what you ask for, each time you open the gate.
Yona?
It's Yona, right?
How old are you?
17.
you're a train baby then?
How about you?
17 years on earth.
17 years in the car tail section.
Earth?
What was it like?
I don't remember.
Why?
I don't want to remember anything before I met Gilliam.
Yona.
Are you clairvoyant?
Clairvoyant? What's that?
Well you always, seem to know what's behind the gates.
Do you see things in your mind?
Don't open it.
What?
Do not open!
Be careful.
Yeah, you too.
Team 2, move!
Move forward!
Passing Yekaterina bridge!
We're at the bridge, guys!
Nine
eight, Seven. ..
six..five..four..
three, two, one...
Happy New Year!
I hate getting older, I fucking hate it.
Everyone down!
Hang on!
Impact!
Not yet!

Stay down!
Hey, Nam, what are you doing man? What are you doing?
He's high as a fucking kite.
We're close.
Safe passage!
Hey watch it! Watch out! come on..
What was that?
1,2.3, 1. 2.
Happy Yekaterina bridge! you filthy inbreds!
You people...
Who would if not, for the benevolent Wilford,
would have frozen solid, 18 years ago today.
You people...
who have suck up the generous titty of Wilford ever since...
for food and shelter.
And now,
in front of our hallowed water supplies section no less...
you repay his kindness...
with violent hooliganism!
You scum.
Precisely 74% of you shall die.
My friend, you suffer from the misplaced optimism of the doomed..
This is going to be good.
Curtis.
What? What did he say?
He said, you guys are fucked.
You should beat all sectioners.
There's a tunnel, right after Yekaterina bridge...
A tunnel?
A fucking long one.
What are you waiting for? Pull back.
Everybody back!...
Go, go!
Chan, get out of here, skidaddle.
Chan!
We need fire!
Chan, brings the fire.
Send them light, at the back!
Chan matches now.
Aaah!..
Aaah!
Crush those, mother fucker!
Officer Fuyu!
What are you doing? Don't look at me, you dozy bugger, look there!
Put me down, stop squeezing my legs.
Surrender!
die!
Surrender, Surrender!
Brenda, he'll kill me, if we don't surrender!
Shit.
Curtis!
Stop!
Stop everybody!
Drop your weapons!
Stop!
Everybody stop!
Do what he says, for crying out loud.
Drop your weapons!
Do not look.
Survivors.
Wash yourselves.
The water supplies section...
Wash away the blood.
Have you seen these kids?
I, I don't know anything about...
Look, where are they, you bitch?
I don't know, I don't know it's not me.
Not me..
Tell us or we'll cut your fucking arm off, even shorter than mine, you bastard.
Wilford, Wilford knows.
Wil,..Wilford. Wilford likes kids.
He does.
That's why he sends that. that yellow one Claude, to get them for him.
It is Wilford you want, not me!
Wilford likes kids?
All he cares about is his wretched engine.
The engine is sacred.
And Wilford is divine..
Wilford is merciful.
Call him.
See if he'll come save you.
Yes.
Wilford the merciful.
Call him.
He won't come here, he won't leave his engine.
We're gonna rip you into little pieces, he still won't come?
When we control the water and turn that off, he'll have to come.
Turn off the water?
Well,.you'll be condemning your own people.
The water come from the front.
The nose of the train, it breaks up the snow and ice an, and turns it into water.
Like an elephant's trunk.
The water goes into the mouth.
Not in the Bum, Curtis!
Yes, Wilford knows you well, Mr. Curtis Everett.
He's been watching you.
And we know you won't harm your own people.
Too bad you couldn't save your second in command, what was his name? Edgar?
Shut the fuck up!
Curtis, Curtis I can help you.
You can fucking die, is what you can do.
No, I can help you, I swear it!
Listen, listen to me.
Wilford won't come here. He's not coming.
You've got to go to him.
And I can take you.
I know the train, I can guarantee you safe passage.
Why the fuck would I trust you?
Because I want to live.
So you'd sell out Wilford the Benevolent?
If I take you to the front...
you have to kill him.
I'll get you close enough.
You kill him and let me live.
Curtis?
You're still determined to push ahead?
Of course.
We're not even half way.
You've already held further, than anyone else.
Further than McGregor, 4 years ago.
10 cars, 20 cars, it doesn't matter unless you make it to the engine.
They'll just regroup and attack us again. We gotta pull them up at the roots.
But, so many have been killed.
We've lost so many.
I know.
You seen our men?
They're exhausted.
I told them to wash themselves...
So that I can assess the damage.
Let me go ahead.
We got Mason now, I can move a lot faster.
You stay here with the wounded and guard the prisoners.
Let me take the Engine, I'll call for you to lead us.
Stop it, Curtis.
Why are you doing that?
You know very well that, you're already our leader.
You have to accept that.
How can I lead if I have 2 good arms?
It's faded out.
Better to have both arms.
Can't do a lot with one, you know.
Especially when you hold a woman.
It is better to have 2 arms, won't you agree?
When you get to the narrow bridge...
big gate with a W on it.
Wilford's behind that.
Don't let Wilford talk.
Cut out his tongue.
Okay, let's all get in there. Squeeze in.
Haha..Perfect!
The hat becomes you well.
Now Grey...
You must go with Curtis.
Ops..Forgot somebody. Okay..
Kronol.
Don't mind me, back to work everyone. Back to work.
Minister, are you okay?
Yes, I'm okay..
Please don't eat it, don't eat it...
No, no, no, no,They're very friendly, they won't bite..
Well, they might bite a tomato but.
It is edible?
A child of the train would not know this.
I grew up walking over it.
This is located under the snow,
of the earth.
What is it?
It moves.
Under the earth.
What is it?
Hey..
Do any of you feel like Sushi?
Hell yeah...Grind that shit up.
Right?
You people are very lucky.
This is only served twice in a year.
In January and July.
Why, not enough fish?
Oh, enough is not the criterion.
Balance.
You see, This aquarium is a closed ecological system..
And am, the number of individual units...
Must be very closely, precisely controlled.
In order to maintain the proper sustainable balance.
No..
You eat this.
You know what that's made of?
Dig in.
Curtis, my friend, do you think that we might...
dispense with the restrains for this next section?
I'm not your friend. And why would I?
For the sake of the young?
Education?
Quiet! Quiet!
Good morning, children.
I'm pleased to present guests from the tail section.
Yes, and what do we say to tail section guests, children?
Good morning, tail section guests!
Timmy!
Andy!
This little boy...
His name is Timmy.
This is my son.
Please take a good look at the picture.
I saw them.
- When? - Where?
Came through there, went through there.
Is that all, boy?
Yes.
- Were they crying? - No, but they looked like they wanted to.
I heard Old Tail Sectioners...
were lazy dogs that sat, all day in their own shit.
No, they're very nice.
And very just and merciful.
So it is.
Minister Mason, we were just about to show a video.
Very good.
THE WILFORD STORY His Early Years
Wilford!
From a very young age, Mr. Wilford's love of locomotive was apparent.
When I grow up, I'll live on a train forever.
Forever!
His early dreams were realized...
when he founded his transportation empire...
the Wilford Industries.
But his greatest dream was to construct...
a luxury locomotive cruise line...
connecting railways of the entire world into one.
A circular railway that expands for 438,000 km...
and completes 1 circle every year.
Impervious to the extreme cold of the Arctic,
and the scorching heat of the African desert...
Wildford's miracle train is self-sustaining...
and possesses, the most sophisticated design...
advance technology known to...
As hard as it is to believe...
people in the old world made fun of Mr Wilford.
They criticized him for over-engineering...
and over-equipping this wonderful train.
But Mr Wilford knew something they did not.
And what was that?
All world people were frigging morons who got turned into popsicles.
Well, sort of.
Mr. Wilford knew that CW7 would freeze the world.
So what did the prophetic Mr. Wilford invented?
To protect the chosen from that calamity?
The Engine!
Rumble rumble, rattle rattle!...
it will never die!
What happens if the engine stops?
We all freeze and die.
But will it stop, will it stop?
No! No!
Can you tell us why?
The Engine is eternal, yes! The Engine is forever, yes!...
Rumble rumble, rattle rattle!...
who is the reason why?
Wilford! Yeah!
Wilford Wilford, hip hurray!
Oh, I love that one, such a tonic.
Oh, It's time children, come this way.
Don't, don't trip now.
Don't push, there's plenty of room.
Who can tell me what's coming up?
The frozen seven!
Pay attention, this tableau will surely be on the exam..
15 years ago, in the third year of the train...
7 passengers tried to stop
Wilford's miracle train and go outside...
and what do we call this event, Magdalena?
The Revolt of Seven
Very good, long before you were born.
Of course, they failed to stop the train.
Instead they jumped out of the running train.
Here they come now.
Look, see that?
What?
There they are, that's how far they made it.
Have you seen this woman before?
She was a maid in the lead car.
An Inuit.
An Eskimo, actually.
She knew all about ice and snow.
She believed she could survive outside.
If we ever go outside the train?
We'd all freeze and die.
If the engine stops running?
We'd all die.
And who takes care of the Sacred Engine?
Sir. Wilford!
Children, it's the new year eggs from Mr Wilford.
Touch them, they are still warm.
These eggs are boiled using water...
heated by the Sacred Engine itself.
As a special treat, we have playing for us...
the world's renowned first chair violinist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra,
Mr. Gerald McInster!
Yeah!..
Is that really Gerald?
He looks damn great.
Happy new year.
No thank you, very much.
Let's go Curtis.
Happy new year.
I thought that the chicken were extinct.
BLOOD
There are actually many things on board were, rumoured to be extinct.
Such as?
This.
Andrew! No!
It wasn't me. It wasn't me.
No...
Aaah!
Curtis.
Curtis!
You have to lead us.
Curtis, my friend, we understand each other..
listen to my words, it wasn't me.
We go forward.
Opens!
Hurry!
It's Mason.
Shit, check her pulse.
Aaah!
Hey, hey firing regulations, don't do...
That does not look good.
It happened.
Aaah!
Get ready. You've got the master key right?
Wait, don't shoot. Please don't shoot.
You've just killed a front section passenger, I'll report..
I didn't see a thing.
Where are you going? Wait, just wait a minute!
Could we talk about it just for 1 second?
Aaah!
Aah!
Oaah!
You son of a bitch!
Close the door!
Aaah!
Aaarsh!..
Aaah!
Arrh!
Tanya.
My Timmy.
My Timmy...
We're gonna find him.
I promise.
I know.
Thank you.
Take this.
I swear to god, Am gonna fucking come after you man, I want that shit!
Am coming after you.
That's my kronol, mother fucker! What did I do man?
I swear man, am gonna kill you, you spaced out fuck!
Open the door. Aaah..
Kronol first!
Kronol, you want Kronol? Here. Good..
Take your fucking Kronol.
Open it! Open the gate!
You blown a fuse or something?
You got a problem with the doors?
Here, smoke a cigarette.
This is a great honour for you.
This is the last cigarette in history, go enjoy it.
"The world's last cigarette, you tail section pig"
You've ever been to the tail section?
Do you have any idea what went on back there?
when we boarded?
It was chaos.
Yeah, we didn't freeze to death.
But we didn't have time to be thankful.
Wilford's soldiers came and they took everything.
It was thousand people in iron box...
no food, no water.
After a month, we ate the weak.
You know what I hate about myself?
I know what people taste like.
I know that babies taste best.
There was a woman.
She was hiding with her baby.
And some men with knives came.
They killed her and they took her baby.
And then an old man...
no relations, just...
Just an old man.
Stepped forward and he said...
"Give me the knife"
Everyone thought he'd killed the baby himself...
But he took the knife
and he cut out his own arm...
and he said, "eat this".
"If you're so hungry..."
"eat this, just leave the baby".
I had never seen anything like that.
And the men put down their knives.
You probably guessed who that old man was.
The baby was Edgar
And I was the man with the knife.
I killed Edgar's mother.
And then one by one, other people in the tail section started...
cutting arms and legs and offering them.
It was like a miracle.
And I wanted to...
I tried
A month later.
Wilford's soldiers brought those protein blocks.
We've been eating that shit ever since.
18 years I hated Wilford.
18 years I've waited for this moment.
And now I'm here.
Open the gate.
Please.
It's beautiful your story, Curtis.
But I do not want to open the door.
You know what I want?
I want to open a door.
But not this one.
That one.
This leads to the outside.
We've been imprisoned for 18 years.
Everyone thinks it's a wall.
But it's a fucking door.
Let's open it and get us all out of here.
And freeze to death? What are you, fucking crazy?
I know.
But maybe we can survive.
Do you remember the Yekaterina bridge?
When we got butchered by axe.
Each new year I check something.
We see the wreckage of a plane
under the snow.
For 10 years on,
the tail could barely be seen.
But now I can see the fuselage and wings.
There is less snow and ice.
It's melting..
The snow becomes more fragile,
It won't take much for everything to collapse.
Recently,
you know what I saw?
Outside, there was...
Drop it.
This is not the time to tell it.
You gotta take it easy on that Kronol.
Snorting that flammable bullshit's gonna fry your brain.
you may be right.
Kronol is the first
highly flammable chemical.
A simple spark and boom!
Basically, it's a fucking bomb.
I don't only store these to get high,
but to blow that door.
Matches, hurry.
What the fuck are you doing?
Give it to me!
Take that off the door.
Give me Fire!
Curtis Everett.
I've been asked to extend, a formal invitation from Mr. Wilford
to join him for dinner...
After you.
Curtis? Is that you?
Curtis, dear boy.
Come in.
Let's take a look at you.
Are you hungry?
You did a man's work, coming all this way.
Please, sit down.
You are the first human being to have walked the total length of this train.
Tail to Engine.
Did you know that?
Well done, bravo.
None of your people have ever been here, to the Engine.
I've never been to the tail section.
Why not? Too dirty for you?
Don't want to rub against the vermin of the tail section?
Do you think my station is without it's own drawbacks?
It's noisy.
And it's lonely.
Right.
Steaks.
Plenty of room.
This whore to bring you anything you want.
Curtis, everyone has their preordained position.
And everyone is in their place except you.
That's what people in the best place say to the people in the worst place.
There's not a soul on this train that wouldn't trade places with you.
Would you trade places with me?
Fuck you.
Curtis, dear boy.
The fact is that we are all stuck inside this blasted train.
We are prisoners in this hunk of metal.
Medium rare?
And this train is a closed ecosystem.
We must always strive for balance.
Air, water, food supply, population.
Must all be kept in balance.
For optimum balance, however there'll have been time when more...
radical solutions were required.
When the population needed to be reduced, rather...
drastically.
We don't have time for true natural selection.
We would all be hideously over crowded and starved waiting for that.
The next best solution...
is to have individual units kill off other individual units.
From time to time, we've had to stir the pot, so to speak.
The Revolt of Seven, The McGregor Riots...
The Great Curtis, Revolution.
A blockbuster production with a devilishly unpredictable plot.
Who could have predicted, your counter-attack with the torch in Yaketerina tunnel?
Pure genius..
That wasn't what Gilliam and I had in our plan.
What?
Now don't tell me you didn't know, Gilliam and I...
Our plan.
Gilliam?
Gilliam.
The front and the tail suppose to work together.
He was more than a partner, really.
He was my friend.
Bullshit.
I don't believe you.
Our original agreement was for the insurgency to end at Yaketerina tunnel.
And all the survivors will go back to the tail section...
- To enjoy a much more space. - You're a fucking liar.
Gilliam would never do that.
It all worked out in the end.
Your counter attack actually made the insurgency 10 times more exciting.
Unfortunately the front suffered more losses than anticipated and...
Gilliam had to pay the price.
Ironic, isn't it?
How people dramatically cross that thin barrier between life and death...
now there's just one last thing for us to do.
Tally up the numbers.
Hello Wilford, it's me.
I'm at Gilliam's place.
Hold on.
Is it still the same number?
Yes, it still stands at 74%.
Okay, carry on.
Oh,,Wait..
Spare 18, to celebrate our 18th year.
It's an excellent idea, yes.
Your people.
God-dammit Claude. Mind the Engine!
She's getting sensitive recently.
Sit down and mind your table manners.
Just relax.
Calm down.
What, now I can see what Gilliam meant, he told me you were brilliant and clever..
always so tense.
When's the last time you got laid?
Like Gilliam said, holding a woman is much better with two arms.
I'll miss Gilliam.
I'll miss our late night phone chats.
He could go on for hours.
All with only one arm.
What's with that face?
What's the matter?
You look like a crazy person.
As if there aren't enough crazies on this train.
Blood!
Are you hurt?
What? What happened?
Get down.
Yona.
We must open the door.
You see the cables?
There are so many cables
Die!
Mother fucker!
Believe it is easier for someone to survive on this train...
if they have some level of insanity.
I mean as Gilliam, well understood...
we need to maintain the proper balance of anxiety and fear...
chaos and horror in order
to keep life going.
And if we don't have that,
we need to invent it.
In that sense, the Great Curtis Revolution you invented,
was truly a masterpiece.
Yona!
Red, 8.
No try, 7.
Come with me, Curtis.
Something I want to show you.
You deserve it.
Come on.
She's waking up now.
You cozy, yes?
Peaceful.
You are now in her heart.
I've devoted my entire life for this.
The Eternal Engine.
It is the eternity itself.
Have you ever been alone on this train?
When was the last time you were alone?
You can't remember, can you?
So please do.
Take your time.
I just wrote it.
It's for you, Curtis.
Here.
TRAIN
I am old.
I want you to take my Station.
It's what you've always wanted.
It's what Gilliam wanted too.
You must tend the Engine...
Keep her humming.
Look, Curtis.
Beyond the gate...
Sections after sections precisely where they've always been,
and where they'll always be.
All adding up to what?
The train.
And now the perfectly correct number of human beings...
All in their proper places,
all adding up to what?
Humanity.
The train is the world.
We the humanity.
And now you have the sacred responsibility to lead all humanity.
Without you, Curtis, humanity will cease to exist.
You've seen what people do without leadership.
They devour one another.
Yona, the Kronol!
Yona, stop!
Stop.
No bullets?
Kronol's on the door, use it!
Look at them.
That's how people are.
You know.
You've seen this.
You've been this.
Ridiculous. Pathetic, aren't they?
You can save them from themselves.
This is what Gilliam saved you for.
Curtis.
This is your destiny.
It's done!
Curtis has the matches. Hurry!
Curtis!
The match!
The space only allows for a very small person.
Young children under 5..
The engine lasts forever, But not so all of it's parts.
That piece of equipment went extinct recently.
We needed a replacement.
Thank goodness the tail section manufactures a steady supplies of kids.
So we can keep going manually.
You fucking bastard!
Yona...
Take the fire.
Aaah!
There's one left.
Critical engine shut down.
Please stand at a safe distance.
Andy? Is that you?
Andy!
You remember me?
Andy, stop, listen to me.
Don't go up those stairs, listen.
Andy!
Come here, come over here.
Andy, listen to me!
Get out of there!
God dammit Andy, listen to me!
Oh, Curtis,
don't be so melodramatic.
You know everyone has their own preordained position.
Aaah!..
Nice.
Aaah!
Dad!..
Curtis.
Stay here.
SNOWPIERCER
THE END
