For security reasons

access is restricted until further notice.
Please, move. Move, quickly.
All right, let's go, sir.
Pack it up, please.
We repeat, please

Let's hope you and your family
get infected!!
Your father is a murderer
DAD
- What happened?
- Roberto?
- Roberto, can you hear me?
- Yes. What's going on?
Don't listen to them,
get to the airport now.
- The government is closing the airspace.
- Tell him to get on the plane now.
Are you okay?
We got you a seat
on a private flight to Zaragoza,
but you have to hurry. Do you understand?
Okay. I'm on my way.

APOCALYPSE Z: NEW WORLD
SENTRY POINT 3 NORTH
LAS PALMAS, CANARY ISLANDS
6 MONTHS LATER
Contact detected
15 nautical miles from this position
at coordinates 28o10'N, 16o20'W.
Come on, come on, let's go.
This isn't a walk in the park, damn it.
Sentry to base. We have contact.
This is the Spanish Army.
Cut your engines
and prepare to be boarded.
I repeat, cut your engines
and prepare to be boarded.
Remain on deck.
We're going to check your condition.
We've come from Cdiz, from Sanlcar.
- Is anyone else on board?
- No. Just me and my husband.
- Are you sure?
- We're sure. We don't have any symptoms.
I swear.
Martnez, Rincn, take their temperature.
Romn, Park, check the cabin.
Don't move, ma'am. Don't move.
Move back. Stand back.
Start with her.
We just want to get to the Canaries,
I swear.
We're going to do
a routine safety inspection.
Before disembarking, it will be mandatory
to go through quarantine.
And how long does that last?
It depends. But don't worry,
you'll be kept informed.
What are you doing?
Don't fuck me over, Tae.
You'll get us in trouble.
Do you want to be a loser
the rest of your life?
I'm not like that, man.
- What's going on?
- Please, don't make this any harder.
- When did you leave the mainland?
- About a week ago.
Infected!
No! Please, no.
No! Don't hurt him!
What the fuck are you doing
out there? Idiot!
Please, no!
I'm okay.
Don't hurt my son!
- I'm okay.
- He's going to be fine! Please!
- I'm okay.
- Please!
No!
QUARANTINE
Here you go.
Private Park,
your superior informed us
that you abandoned your post
and failed to notice
the presence of an infected person.
- Is that correct?
- Yes, sir.
I hope you realize how serious
these accusations are.
Okay, then it's my duty
to inform you that you're under arrest
for abandoning your post
and endangering a fellow soldier.
If you have anything else to say,
please say it now,
so it can be included
in your arrest record.
Okay?
Adopt him already, man.
I've told you a thousand times, I can't.
I don't have the space.
He hasn't gotten close to anyone
since Manel died.
No one.
Take whatever you want from that box.
I'll take everything.
This? For those rings?
Damn, man.
If you want to improve your situation,
we can talk.
They want to send a mission to Madrid.
Operation Ithaca. Heard of it?
They want to bring supplies
to the islands,
and what I want is
to place someone in Inventory,
to help me divert certain merchandise.
You want to send someone to the mainland?
- To hustle?
- Anxiety meds.
They're worth more than diamonds now.
Roberto...
The Canaries are really fucked.
We're not gonna last another month.
At least not like this.
Why do you sound like
all those pessimists?
The government can't hold on anymore.
The opposition can't either.
They're just waiting to see
who shoots first,
and when that happens,
we won't need the infected
to put us through hell here.
What do you say?
Feel like going to Madrid?
No fucking way.
And I'm taking this.
MISSING
Enough with the waves of migrants
coming here to eat your food,
overwhelm your hospitals and infect you.
Enough! It's over!
We must never forget...
FOOD BANK
YOUR HELP FEEDS HOPE
...what went wrong on La Graciosa.
The time has come to demand a government
that doesn't lie to you,
that tells the truth.
A new government
with the courage to close the borders!
DEMONSTRATION TOMORROW
IN LAS PALMAS
Those were the words
of opposition leader Gonzlez-Escalona.
- What's up?
- What's up, Moncho?
Hey, how was the rotation?
Two weeks wasted, for a change.
They cut our intranet here.
We were without cellphones for a few days.
You didn't miss much either.
They got the water treatment plant
back up.
Now you can shower for
more than a minute at a time.
Shit.
Hope someone does something
and shakes the fucking government up.
Good luck with that.
Hey, are you going to the demonstration?
No, and neither should you.
You're gassing up a madman.
A madman, he says.
Escalona is the only one who's doing
anything to change things.
Something's going down. Let's go!
Hurry!
Fight!
Come on!
- Leave me alone, man.
- Where are you going?
You can't go up there.
I'm not gonna tell you again.
I know you almost got a soldier killed.
Get out of here!
Please, I just want to go home, okay?
This isn't your home, buddy.
Go on, get out of here.
- Don't you understand Spanish?
- I am Spanish.
- Hey!
- Watch out.
Let's see if you understand that.
And who are you?
Let him through.
You can't even see with those eyes.
Leave it. Hey.
This dumbass left
his fellow soldier hanging.
That soldier was me. I'm fine.
- Okay? Yes.
- Yeah? Okay.
Let us by, please.
What? Are you butt buddies?
With your permission, Captain.
I should have guessed
you were the one fighting.
How are you?
Better than the other guy, it seems.
I wouldn't brag about
breaking a superior's back.
A superior?
A sergeant.
- You have to take this seriously...
- Forgive me, Marina...
but I don't need another
one of your lectures.
Okay? You're not my instructor anymore.
I'm still your superior.
Roberto Romn? Come with me.
Thank God.
You got my message.
The commander owes me a few favors,
but I won't be able to stay long.
Tell them to let me out of here, please.
I'm tired of explaining
that it was an accident.
Accident or not,
the Madrid mission
is now short a sergeant.
- Because of you.
- Well, he deserved it.
That doesn't matter.
He's a sergeant, you're only a conscript.
Hey, talk to someone, please.
You're well-connected.
You must know someone
who can resolve all this.
- It was an accident.
- You don't understand.
I can't help you this time.
The judge knows who you are.
She knows your father is Enrique Romn,
and she's not going to let off the son
of the man who ignored protocols
and caused the first
mass infection in Spain.
What does my father have to do with this?
I don't even know where he is.
That doesn't matter.
People are lashing out at politicians,
and you're the closest thing they have.
Prit, I'm nobody.
Understand?
And my father is a scapegoat.
I get it.
But the justice system
that used to protect you
is now using you as an example.
That's how it is now.
You have to help me.
And you can do it.
There's one option.
The Madrid operation.
They still need people in Inventory.
I can pull a few strings.
I help you get out of here,
you help me divert merchandise there.
That's the only thing I can think of.
It's better than sitting in jail.
Really?
At least there you'll have guns
to defend yourself.
You won't last a day here in prison,
believe me.
LAS PALMAS AIR BASE, GRAND CANARY ISLAND
On your feet!
Awaiting orders, Major.
At ease.
Ladies, gentlemen,
I am Major Joaqun De Luna.
To my left, Captain Parra.
To my right, Captain Castro.
In a few hours, all of you
will depart for Cuatro Vientos,
the airfield where
the government stockpiled
most of their resources
before evacuating Madrid.
OPERATION ITHACA
The mission is to obtain supplies and
create a route for the transit of goods
from the mainland to the archipelago.
For this, two tactical subgroups
have been formed.
The first, led by Captain Parra,
will act as a covering force
and will deploy first once we have landed.
Afterward, they will head toward
the buildings in the north sector.
The second will be led by Captain Castro
and will occupy the buildings
at the rear of the complex.
We'll travel light, but secure.
Protective mesh under your uniform
and as much ammunition as possible.
Keep in mind that we will move fast.
Although resistance may be limited,
we can't count on that.
At this point, the probability
of finding survivors in Madrid
is virtually zero,
but if it does happen,
you must avoid all contact
with anyone outside the mission.
For now, we don't have the capacity
to organize rescues.
We can't rescue anyone
because we can't rescue everyone.
That is not our responsibility.
Now you will receive instructions
on health precautions
from Luca Iglesias, our Medical Director.
She has survived much longer
in the trenches than any of us.
Come on up.
Ignacio.
- Roberto.
- What's up?
I'm the Signal Specialist.
They call me Core.
Or "Core Dump," or "The Processor,"
or just "The IT Guy."
Fucking disgusting.
This thing is full of conscripts.
Hey! This is a really good squad.
They held on for hours and hours
on the Mali coast.
You won't have any trouble.
- Manuel.
- What is it?
Guzmn.
He doesn't much like conscripts.
Doesn't like to get attached
in case he has to kill them later.
Hey, girl. What's up, recruit?
So nice of them
to take us on a field trip.
Comillas.
They call her that for the neighborhood
in Madrid, not the...
You're the new Notary, right?
That's what they call the logistics guy.
The last guy debuted and retired
on the same day.
So I hope that in addition
to organizing supplies,
you also know how to shoot.
Let's go.
On three. One, two, three.
Delta!
One, two, three.
Delta!
One, two, three.
Delta!
Eagle 1 to Madrid Control.
...entering the mainland sector.
Initiating mainland overflight.
Flight level 204.
Clear sky.
Good visibility at ten kilometers.
Light wind from the northeast,
no turbulence.
I don't want to know
how they let you come.
But this squad has been
functioning like a family for weeks.
You better be up to the task.
Keep your eyes open. Understood?
- Yes.
- "Yes, Sergeant."
Yes, Sergeant.
You've got a thing for her.
Initiating reconnaissance flight
over the city.
Separation in progress.
Five minutes!
Five minutes.
Landing complete. On the ground.
Falcon to Chimneysweep.
Initiating deployment.
Roger that. From now on, radio silence.
Falcon.
Perimeter defense.
Sharpshooters on their way.
Remember, with the ammunition we use,
it's best to shoot for the head,
not the chest.
A shot between the eyes is best.
- Ready?
- Yes, Sergeant!
Falcon to Chimneysweep. All clear.
Welcome to Madrid.
Core to all.
Launching reconnaissance drone.
Chimneysweep to all.
Delta moving on objective.
Falcon says Alpha is
inspecting the perimeter.
Infected!
On alert!
Chimneysweep to Core. Status report.
All clear.
Finger off the trigger, asshole.
You want to get us all killed?
Chimneysweep to Falcon. All in order?
No activity inside
the perimeter buildings.
We're almost at the target.
Advancing.
Wanna let them
get a little closer, asshole?
Chimneysweep to Core. There must be more.
Do you have visual contact?
Checking.
Group of 30 located
on your left flank, 300 meters.
What we were expecting.
Falcon to Chimneysweep.
Infected coming out of the metro stations.
I repeat, infected coming out
of the metro stations.
Maintain position!
The stations are outside the perimeter.
Only a limited number can get in.
Fire!
Come on, shoot! They aren't people!
Core to Chimneysweep.
There are lots of openings.
They must've broken the fence
at several points.
- Roll out!
- Fuck!
They're rushing in.
I repeat, they're rushing in.
There are openings all along the fence.
Orchestra! Secure the perimeter!
Find an elevated position
to provide cover!
Roger!
Falcon, maintain position.
Let's go for the ammunition.
Take cover!
Final magazine!
I want that fucking door down!
Final magazine!
Final magazine.
Quickly!
Fall back!
Run!
Hurry!
Let's go!
Castro, get to the top floor
and open fire.
You four, with me. To the ammunition.
Comillas, with me.
Clear!
Romn, Cedeo, with me.
Load up and take everything upstairs.
ARMORY
NO UNAUTHORIZED ENTRY
Come on, come on, quickly, hurry!
Infected!
Cover the door.
Out of ammo!
Fuck! Out of ammo!
Let's get out of here!
Door!
Chimneysweep to all. Do you read me?
Loud and clear. We're on the second floor.
Status report.
We're dug in, almost out of ammo.
How long will it take?
We're working on it.
Shit.
The roof.
We have to blow the roof off.
Seriously.
The library is up there.
I saw it on the maps.
The Notary is right.
Let's blow the roof off!
Charge is set and ready to go.
Fire in the hole!
Hurry! Bring up the ammo!
Let's get the hell out of here!
Keep sending up ammo! That's an order!
No!
Prioritize the mission!
Get up there! Quickly!
Get up there!
That's an order!
This is Orchestra to all.
The major has fallen.
Do you read? Major De Luna has fallen.
Falcon, let's give them cover from here.
Prepare to repair the perimeter.
Notary, hey.
That was fucking amazing, okay? Good job.
More ammo here!
Perimeter secured. Good work, folks.
Romn!
Notary!
I'm in command of the operation.
You come with us.
We've lost two notaries.
Get ready to sweat, kid,
because you're pulling double duty.
Don't let up. You're doing fucking great.
I asked for two assistants to help you.
Over here.
Ready?
Manuel, go ahead.
Are you ready?
Charge ready to blow.
Fire.
Fire in the hole!
Clear!
SUPPLY BUILDING
NORTH SECTOR, SECTION B
People have been looting.
Must've gotten in through the windows.
Poor things.
How many survivors are left in the area?
You didn't notice from the plane?
I don't think anyone is
still alive in this fucking city.
Save the chit-chat
for when we're home, okay?
- Yes, Captain.
- Yes, Captain.
We'll split up. In pairs.
Guzmn, Comillas, with me.
Manuel, Core, upstairs.
Marina and Roberto, boxes.
Let's go.
She's the best option
to replace the major.
Have you known her long?
Since she got back from La Graciosa.
Her daughter died there.
That's why she doesn't
tolerate distraction.
That was a nightmare.
What the infected didn't kill,
the bombings did.
Opera to Orchestra.
There's been some minor thefts
from the pharmacy,
but nothing significant.
Do you have any family?
A sister.
Herminia.
She's my twin sister.
She was with her boyfriend
in a place like this,
but never evacuated to the Canaries.
I still have hope that they're alive.
Although every day
it gets harder to believe, to be honest.
Don't give up.
It's all we have left.
Opera to Orchestra.
Inquiring about the
estimated time of arrival for support.
Orchestra to Opera.
Estimated arrival for support, 30 minutes.
Continue with the assigned procedure.
Opera.
Comillas to all.
Want some wetsuits?
I just found a whole box.
Where are you? I've lost sight of you.
Near the pharmacy, doing some shopping.
On my way.
This is Nightingale.
If you find a game console, let me know.
Look at him.
With his finger in the right place.
I don't think I have to
give you any more lessons.
Leave him alone.
I don't think you'd have done better
on your first day.
This is Core.
Come up and see this, please.
Come on, Romn.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Check out the relics Core found.
It doesn't make sense.
Either this airport
hasn't been updated since Y2K,
or something's very weird.
Opera to Pottymouth.
Requesting assistance
opening the garage door.
Let's see if it starts up.
No way. You've gotta be kidding me.
What is it?
The Internet works.
- What?
- Yeah, the Internet works.
There are so many destroyed hubs
because the bandwidth
must have been reduced.
Telnet. Gopher.
It's like the Internet from 40 years ago,
but it works.
But that's impossible, Core.
There's no electricity.
Yes, there is.
The phone line has its own current.
Does that mean there's
a working telephone switchboard?
It's likely, but surely it's autonomous.
Look, these are chats.
Is there anybody from Madrid?
Madrid - HELP
Elias - Activity detected in Madrid
Elias - Hello

Core.
Do you think we can access our emails?
I think so, but...
I have to connect two modems in parallel
to go a little faster.
Orchestra to Notary.
Romn...
Orchestra to Notary.
The assistants are here.
You can get to work.
Roger that.
PEAS
INSPECTED
Maldonado.
Careful they don't catch you.
I'm just working.
I know your boss.
I know what you do for him.
Just don't touch
the important medications.
Tell him that from me.
This too. With the first shipment.
Sorry.
You can't sleep either?
May I?
I'm sorry about your sister.
Thank you.
Is your family okay?
Yeah, I think so.
I think they're safe.
What I don't know is where.
I tried to go with them
when all this started,
but as hard as my father tried,
it was impossible.
I'm sorry.
No, I think it's better this way.
After all the people who were
infected because of him,
I think there's some justice
in his screw-up of a son
not being able to escape.
All I see is a forced conscript
who's doing everything he can
for his fellow soldiers.
Can I confess something to you?
Confession for confession?
I feel guilty
for having spent so much time
hoping that my sister was alive.
And now it's too late
to say goodbye to her.
And that feeling is suffocating me.
You know what? I don't think it's too late
to say goodbye to her.
...Prosperidad neighborhood. This is Mateo.
Prosperidad neighborhood.
Can anyone hear me?
I can hear you, Mateo. This is Laura.
Thank God.
Did you see the lights in the sky?
- It came from Cuatro Vientos...
- Survivors.
...but it's impossible to get there.
Maybe the people at the bullring
can make contact.
They're busy with the infected.
Every day,
they're having more trouble with them.
I know, but we have to get there somehow.
It's been four days since my son...
How much longer he can last?
This is Vicente,
from the telephone exchange.
I saw military planes.
- Jess, Lavapis.
- Mara, Chueca.
This is Core at Cuatro Vientos.
We've come from the Canaries.
Thank God.
My name is Alicia.
We're at the bullring, near the M-30.
A group of neighbors built
this refuge for people in the area.
But we won't be able
to hold out another day.
Our defenses are about to fall.
Be right there, hold on.
Alicia...
Alicia, this is Captain Roco Castro,
of the Spanish Army.
Listen to me. Right now we don't have
the means to get to you,
but we'll initiate
rescue missions shortly,
so, please, don't lose heart, okay?
Don't talk to me about heart.
You should have done this a long time ago,
not left it up to us.
You're just like all those politicians.
You're going to abandon us.
Alicia, do you hear me?
Alicia?
We have to help them, Captain.
The mission is to secure this
and take it with us.
We don't have resources for anything more.
But those people won't last another day.
They just made that pretty clear.
Guzmn, when will we
start searching for survivors?
That's scheduled for
a few months from now, Captain.
We're going to abandon them
just because we're not ready?
We can't do that.
We'll find a way.
Those people built a refuge
for their neighbors.
They're heroes.
Captain, I don't think...
I need to talk to central command.
I'll see if I can send a message
from the plane.
Yes, ma'am.
Attention all personnel.
The government aircraft carrying
Gonzlez-Escalona has landed.
Proceed with reception
and security protocols.
I repeat, Gonzlez-Escalona on base.
At your command, Major.
Status report, Captain.
Sixteen KIA,
among them Major De Luna,
Captain Barrena and Sergeant Cedeo.
The openings in the perimeter fence were
made by groups of survivors
trying to reach the supplies.
There are more than we thought.
Prit?
What are you doing here?
We came to see you.
We missed you.
Tae.
Ask if there's a mechanic available.
Smart kid.
Come on.
Get ready, the new governor
wants to speak with you all.
Gonzlez-Escalona is the new governor?
The Las Palmas demonstration
got out of hand.
There were casualties.
The government put him
in charge of supplies,
as long as he stops rabble-rousing.
Wait.
He's our new boss?
Come on.
Don't worry, I'm not
going to give a speech.
I'm not here today as a politician,
or as a critic of the government,
which is how you know me.
I'm here as just another Spaniard...
who unfortunately knows
what sacrifice is, just like you.
When I learned of your actions,
I thought, I want to be there.
I want to be there helping them.
Helping them raise up Madrid.
Because this airport doesn't just
represent a supply depot anymore.
This airport, right now,
is the resistance,
the courage...
We're on the brink of a civil war.
No one's playing clean now.
These people's lives aren't a game.
I need you to stick with me
here for a while.
Please.
Bravo!
Thank you! Thank you for your service!
We need to prepare double the planes
and three or four helicopters
for travel to the mainland.
We'll speak later. Roberto.
You're Roberto, right?
Sit down, I want to talk to you.
Please.
When the Ukrainian told me
that you were Enrique Romn's son,
I couldn't believe it.
Want one?
No, thank you.
- They're good.
- I don't smoke.
Me neither.
They insist on giving them to me, but
I haven't touched tobacco in ten years.
I don't know if you know,
but I owe your father a lot.
My father?
You know each other?
Quique supported me a lot
when I started in politics.
He's a good man.
The kind you don't meet
very often in politics.
And I think they've been
very unfair to him.
Outside and inside the party. Very.
Do you know where he is?
No.
Although I assume he's still alive.
Look, I'm going to take advantage
of the fact that that
Ukrainian friend of yours is a pilot.
He can take me to see some people.
Good people.
Committed people.
Roberto, do you understand me?
People who know things.
And I'm convinced they'll be happy
to meet you personally.
You want me to go with you?
Don't rule out the possibility
that one of them
may know where your father is.
He may even be there.
Look, Roberto...
This place isn't made
for people like you and me.
You weren't born to be a soldier, son.
Or a smuggler.
If not for Pritchenko,
I don't know what would've become of me.
Tae,
what's happened to you
since the last time I saw you?
Guess I don't want to be a loser
the rest of my life.
Romn.
Go ahead. I'll be right there.
- Sergeant?
- They're letting us go.
We're going to rescue
the survivors from their stronghold.
The new major didn't want to,
but Gonzlez-Escalona
intervened to let us organize
a volunteer mission.
Come on, Romn!
Do you think that guy is trustworthy?
I don't know,
but if he allows us to help them,
what does it matter?
What's wrong?
What's wrong is it's suicide.
Don't you see?
Roberto, they won't last
another day without us.
They need us.
Giving them hope
is the most important thing.
- Will you come?
- I don't know, Marina.
I don't know.
Then let's say goodbye now, okay?
I hope it goes well for you.
Ready. Okay.
Pilar.
Hey, girl.
Captain Castro.
My friend and I would like a ride.
It wouldn't be a bother, would it?
No, of course not.
And thank you for helping us.
It's my pleasure.
Those people need you.

Cleared for takeoff. We're ready.
We have a lot of work ahead of us.
I'm very grateful.
What are you doing here, Luca?
I needed to leave the Canary Islands.
Because of Manel?
I think about him a lot.
I think a lot about the night he died.
You didn't leave his side for one minute.
It wasn't your fault he got pneumonia.
It wasn't your fault that
antibiotics ran out on the island.
Please, concentrate on
continuing to help people.
And you're not helping?
You and I are on very different teams now.
He was very grateful to you.
He trusted you a lot.
I know that when the time comes,
you will do the right thing.
Comillas! Is that your neighborhood?
My mother and sister died there.
I made it out.
They would be very proud
to see what you've become.
Your daughter would be
very proud of you, too, Captain.
It's the animals from the zoo.
We're here.
The noise is attracting them.
Lower it down.
Thank you.
See you.
Last one!
We're ready!
Ready!
No, wait!
I'm going with them!
What?
Wait.
Thank you, Prit.
Do you realize what you're doing?
Those people won't save you!
You're Romn's son!
I can't abandon my fellow soldiers.
I'm not like that.
Right now there are 40 of us.
We were going to bring in more survivors,
but security is about to fall.
We reinforced the barrier
as much as we could,
but we won't last much longer.
From here on in, we have it covered.
You're not alone anymore.
There's a group trying to contain them.
But without firepower, it's impossible.
We can barely fend off the attacks.
Here are the weaker ones.
- Luca!
- On it.
Open the gates! We're coming in!
It's impossible to hold on.
It's all about to go to hell.
We need to shoot from above!
There's access over there!
- Guzmn!
- On it!
We need to relieve the pressure.
Notary!
Get out of there, folks, let's go.
Ready? Fire!
We're fucked! Half the city is here!
- Save ammunition.
- Damn.
We need a plan.
You're in charge.
Reinforce the door!
Roberto!
- Cover me!
- Hurry!
- Come on!
- Go!
Shit! Come on!
Roberto!
Now.
Come on! Harder!
Listen! Listen up!
We need to isolate them and create
a containment area back there.
Can we close off access to the ring?
- The vomitorium?
- Yes.
We were doing that when this started.
- We have to do it now.
- Okay.
They're coming!
- Come on!
- Come on, hurry!
Away from the doors, quickly.
Attention. We're going to open the gates
to blockade the entrance
with a mobile barrier.
We'll herd the ones that get in
toward the funnel and open fire.
Pottymouth, you'll provide cover
from the fence.
Ready.
Core, you'll guide the infected toward us.
Ready.
Opera? Notary?
- Ready.
- Ready.
Status report.
We're almost there. Not much left.
I'll adjust this and I'm done.
Ready!
- Come on!
- Come on, let's go!
- Let's go!
- Comillas!
Ready?
Come on. Here.
Let's go!
Okay. Be good, okay?
Let's go. Come on.
Come on.
Let's go.
Keep it up!
Now!
Ready?
No, keep going!
Come on.
Marina! Fall back, with me!
Come on. Push.
Go!
- Push there.
- Come on!
- Come on!
- Push!
Push! Keep going!
Push! Keep it up.
Shit, goddamn it.
Motherfucker.
Look out!
- Secure it!
- Hold on!
Hold on!
I'll help you.
Let's go.
Come on, get back.
This is Opera! We need help!
Help, please!
Go before I bite you.
Take this.
Let's go!
Out of ammo!
We don't have any ammunition!
They're going to enter the ring.
I'm going to jump.
I need you to close the doors
as I go through.
No! Roberto!
Quickly, the doors!
Hey! Here!
Go! Go! Go!
It's not working!
Get up here!
Are you crazy? Get out of here.
I'm not leaving you here alone!
This is a message to everyone
still fighting out there.
My name is Roco Castro,
I am a captain in the Spanish Army.
Our squadron is protecting
a group of heroes
who have built a refuge at the bullring.
We've cleared the area, raised defenses
and gathered supplies.
Anyone who wishes to can access it
from passageways we are installing
in the surrounding streets.
If you are tired,
alone or simply without hope,
let us help you.
All those who were unable
to reach the Canary Islands at the time
will find a home here.
We will give you shelter.
Whoever you are,
wherever you come from,
here you will be welcome.
Good night, Madrid.

- Yes. What's going on?
Don't listen to them,
get to the airport now.
- The government is closing the airspace.
- Tell him to get on the plane now.
Are you okay?
We got you a seat
on a private flight to Zaragoza,
but you have to hurry. Do you understand?
Okay. I'm on my way.

SENTRY POINT 3 NORTH
LAS PALMAS, CANARY ISLANDS
6 MONTHS LATER
Contact detected
15 nautical miles from this position
at coordinates 28o10'N, 16o20'W.
Come on, come on, let's go.
This isn't a walk in the park, damn it.
Sentry to base. We have contact.
This is the Spanish Army.
Cut your engines
and prepare to be boarded.
I repeat, cut your engines
and prepare to be boarded.
Remain on deck.
We're going to check your condition.
We've come from Cdiz, from Sanlcar.
- Is anyone else on board?
- No. Just me and my husband.
- Are you sure?
- We're sure. We don't have any symptoms.
I swear.
Martnez, Rincn, take their temperature.
Romn, Park, check the cabin.
Don't move, ma'am. Don't move.
Move back. Stand back.
Start with her.
We just want to get to the Canaries,
I swear.
We're going to do
a routine safety inspection.
Before disembarking, it will be mandatory
to go through quarantine.
And how long does that last?
It depends. But don't worry,
you'll be kept informed.
What are you doing?
Don't fuck me over, Tae.
You'll get us in trouble.
Do you want to be a loser
the rest of your life?
I'm not like that, man.
- What's going on?
- Please, don't make this any harder.
- When did you leave the mainland?
- About a week ago.
Infected!
No! Please, no.
No! Don't hurt him!
What the fuck are you doing
out there? Idiot!
Please, no!
I'm okay.
Don't hurt my son!
- I'm okay.
- He's going to be fine! Please!
- I'm okay.
- Please!
No!
QUARANTINE
Here you go.
Private Park,
your superior informed us
that you abandoned your post
and failed to notice
the presence of an infected person.
- Is that correct?
- Yes, sir.
I hope you realize how serious
these accusations are.
Okay, then it's my duty
to inform you that you're under arrest
for abandoning your post
and endangering a fellow soldier.
If you have anything else to say,
please say it now,
so it can be included
in your arrest record.
Okay?
Adopt him already, man.
I've told you a thousand times, I can't.
I don't have the space.
He hasn't gotten close to anyone
since Manel died.
No one.
Take whatever you want from that box.
I'll take everything.
This? For those rings?
Damn, man.
If you want to improve your situation,
we can talk.
They want to send a mission to Madrid.
Operation Ithaca. Heard of it?
They want to bring supplies
to the islands,
and what I want is
to place someone in Inventory,
to help me divert certain merchandise.
You want to send someone to the mainland?
- To hustle?
- Anxiety meds.
They're worth more than diamonds now.
Roberto...
The Canaries are really fucked.
We're not gonna last another month.
At least not like this.
Why do you sound like
all those pessimists?
The government can't hold on anymore.
The opposition can't either.
They're just waiting to see
who shoots first,
and when that happens,
we won't need the infected
to put us through hell here.
What do you say?
Feel like going to Madrid?
No fucking way.
And I'm taking this.
MISSING
Enough with the waves of migrants
coming here to eat your food,
overwhelm your hospitals and infect you.
Enough! It's over!
We must never forget...
FOOD BANK
YOUR HELP FEEDS HOPE
...what went wrong on La Graciosa.
The time has come to demand a government
that doesn't lie to you,
that tells the truth.
A new government
with the courage to close the borders!
DEMONSTRATION TOMORROW
IN LAS PALMAS
Those were the words
of opposition leader Gonzlez-Escalona.
- What's up?
- What's up, Moncho?
Hey, how was the rotation?
Two weeks wasted, for a change.
They cut our intranet here.
We were without cellphones for a few days.
You didn't miss much either.
They got the water treatment plant
back up.
Now you can shower for
more than a minute at a time.
Shit.
Hope someone does something
and shakes the fucking government up.
Good luck with that.
Hey, are you going to the demonstration?
No, and neither should you.
You're gassing up a madman.
A madman, he says.
Escalona is the only one who's doing
anything to change things.
Something's going down. Let's go!
Hurry!
Fight!
Come on!
- Leave me alone, man.
- Where are you going?
You can't go up there.
I'm not gonna tell you again.
I know you almost got a soldier killed.
Get out of here!
Please, I just want to go home, okay?
This isn't your home, buddy.
Go on, get out of here.
- Don't you understand Spanish?
- I am Spanish.
- Hey!
- Watch out.
Let's see if you understand that.
And who are you?
Let him through.
You can't even see with those eyes.
Leave it. Hey.
This dumbass left
his fellow soldier hanging.
That soldier was me. I'm fine.
- Okay? Yes.
- Yeah? Okay.
Let us by, please.
What? Are you butt buddies?
With your permission, Captain.
I should have guessed
you were the one fighting.
How are you?
Better than the other guy, it seems.
I wouldn't brag about
breaking a superior's back.
A superior?
A sergeant.
- You have to take this seriously...
- Forgive me, Marina...
but I don't need another
one of your lectures.
Okay? You're not my instructor anymore.
I'm still your superior.
Roberto Romn? Come with me.
Thank God.
You got my message.
The commander owes me a few favors,
but I won't be able to stay long.
Tell them to let me out of here, please.
I'm tired of explaining
that it was an accident.
Accident or not,
the Madrid mission
is now short a sergeant.
- Because of you.
- Well, he deserved it.
That doesn't matter.
He's a sergeant, you're only a conscript.
Hey, talk to someone, please.
You're well-connected.
You must know someone
who can resolve all this.
- It was an accident.
- You don't understand.
I can't help you this time.
The judge knows who you are.
She knows your father is Enrique Romn,
and she's not going to let off the son
of the man who ignored protocols
and caused the first
mass infection in Spain.
What does my father have to do with this?
I don't even know where he is.
That doesn't matter.
People are lashing out at politicians,
and you're the closest thing they have.
Prit, I'm nobody.
Understand?
And my father is a scapegoat.
I get it.
But the justice system
that used to protect you
is now using you as an example.
That's how it is now.
You have to help me.
And you can do it.
There's one option.
The Madrid operation.
They still need people in Inventory.
I can pull a few strings.
I help you get out of here,
you help me divert merchandise there.
That's the only thing I can think of.
It's better than sitting in jail.
Really?
At least there you'll have guns
to defend yourself.
You won't last a day here in prison,
believe me.
LAS PALMAS AIR BASE, GRAND CANARY ISLAND
On your feet!
Awaiting orders, Major.
At ease.
Ladies, gentlemen,
I am Major Joaqun De Luna.
To my left, Captain Parra.
To my right, Captain Castro.
In a few hours, all of you
will depart for Cuatro Vientos,
the airfield where
the government stockpiled
most of their resources
before evacuating Madrid.
OPERATION ITHACA
The mission is to obtain supplies and
create a route for the transit of goods
from the mainland to the archipelago.
For this, two tactical subgroups
have been formed.
The first, led by Captain Parra,
will act as a covering force
and will deploy first once we have landed.
Afterward, they will head toward
the buildings in the north sector.
The second will be led by Captain Castro
and will occupy the buildings
at the rear of the complex.
We'll travel light, but secure.
Protective mesh under your uniform
and as much ammunition as possible.
Keep in mind that we will move fast.
Although resistance may be limited,
we can't count on that.
At this point, the probability
of finding survivors in Madrid
is virtually zero,
but if it does happen,
you must avoid all contact
with anyone outside the mission.
For now, we don't have the capacity
to organize rescues.
We can't rescue anyone
because we can't rescue everyone.
That is not our responsibility.
Now you will receive instructions
on health precautions
from Luca Iglesias, our Medical Director.
She has survived much longer
in the trenches than any of us.
Come on up.
Ignacio.
- Roberto.
- What's up?
I'm the Signal Specialist.
They call me Core.
Or "Core Dump," or "The Processor,"
or just "The IT Guy."
Fucking disgusting.
This thing is full of conscripts.
Hey! This is a really good squad.
They held on for hours and hours
on the Mali coast.
You won't have any trouble.
- Manuel.
- What is it?
Guzmn.
He doesn't much like conscripts.
Doesn't like to get attached
in case he has to kill them later.
Hey, girl. What's up, recruit?
So nice of them
to take us on a field trip.
Comillas.
They call her that for the neighborhood
in Madrid, not the...
You're the new Notary, right?
That's what they call the logistics guy.
The last guy debuted and retired
on the same day.
So I hope that in addition
to organizing supplies,
you also know how to shoot.
Let's go.
On three. One, two, three.
Delta!
One, two, three.
Delta!
One, two, three.
Delta!
Eagle 1 to Madrid Control.
...entering the mainland sector.
Initiating mainland overflight.
Flight level 204.
Clear sky.
Good visibility at ten kilometers.
Light wind from the northeast,
no turbulence.
I don't want to know
how they let you come.
But this squad has been
functioning like a family for weeks.
You better be up to the task.
Keep your eyes open. Understood?
- Yes.
- "Yes, Sergeant."
Yes, Sergeant.
You've got a thing for her.
Initiating reconnaissance flight
over the city.
Separation in progress.
Five minutes!
Five minutes.
Landing complete. On the ground.
Falcon to Chimneysweep.
Initiating deployment.
Roger that. From now on, radio silence.
Falcon.
Perimeter defense.
Sharpshooters on their way.
Remember, with the ammunition we use,
it's best to shoot for the head,
not the chest.
A shot between the eyes is best.
- Ready?
- Yes, Sergeant!
Falcon to Chimneysweep. All clear.
Welcome to Madrid.
Core to all.
Launching reconnaissance drone.
Chimneysweep to all.
Delta moving on objective.
Falcon says Alpha is
inspecting the perimeter.
Infected!
On alert!
Chimneysweep to Core. Status report.
All clear.
Finger off the trigger, asshole.
You want to get us all killed?
Chimneysweep to Falcon. All in order?
No activity inside
the perimeter buildings.
We're almost at the target.
Advancing.
Wanna let them
get a little closer, asshole?
Chimneysweep to Core. There must be more.
Do you have visual contact?
Checking.
Group of 30 located
on your left flank, 300 meters.
What we were expecting.
Falcon to Chimneysweep.
Infected coming out of the metro stations.
I repeat, infected coming out
of the metro stations.
Maintain position!
The stations are outside the perimeter.
Only a limited number can get in.
Fire!
Come on, shoot! They aren't people!
Core to Chimneysweep.
There are lots of openings.
They must've broken the fence
at several points.
- Roll out!
- Fuck!
They're rushing in.
I repeat, they're rushing in.
There are openings all along the fence.
Orchestra! Secure the perimeter!
Find an elevated position
to provide cover!
Roger!
Falcon, maintain position.
Let's go for the ammunition.
Take cover!
Final magazine!
I want that fucking door down!
Final magazine!
Final magazine.
Quickly!
Fall back!
Run!
Hurry!
Let's go!
Castro, get to the top floor
and open fire.
You four, with me. To the ammunition.
Comillas, with me.
Clear!
Romn, Cedeo, with me.
Load up and take everything upstairs.
ARMORY
NO UNAUTHORIZED ENTRY
Come on, come on, quickly, hurry!
Infected!
Cover the door.
Out of ammo!
Fuck! Out of ammo!
Let's get out of here!
Door!
Chimneysweep to all. Do you read me?
Loud and clear. We're on the second floor.
Status report.
We're dug in, almost out of ammo.
How long will it take?
We're working on it.
Shit.
The roof.
We have to blow the roof off.
Seriously.
The library is up there.
I saw it on the maps.
The Notary is right.
Let's blow the roof off!
Charge is set and ready to go.
Fire in the hole!
Hurry! Bring up the ammo!
Let's get the hell out of here!
Keep sending up ammo! That's an order!
No!
Prioritize the mission!
Get up there! Quickly!
Get up there!
That's an order!
This is Orchestra to all.
The major has fallen.
Do you read? Major De Luna has fallen.
Falcon, let's give them cover from here.
Prepare to repair the perimeter.
Notary, hey.
That was fucking amazing, okay? Good job.
More ammo here!
Perimeter secured. Good work, folks.
Romn!
Notary!
I'm in command of the operation.
You come with us.
We've lost two notaries.
Get ready to sweat, kid,
because you're pulling double duty.
Don't let up. You're doing fucking great.
I asked for two assistants to help you.
Over here.
Ready?
Manuel, go ahead.
Are you ready?
Charge ready to blow.
Fire.
Fire in the hole!
Clear!
SUPPLY BUILDING
NORTH SECTOR, SECTION B
People have been looting.
Must've gotten in through the windows.
Poor things.
How many survivors are left in the area?
You didn't notice from the plane?
I don't think anyone is
still alive in this fucking city.
Save the chit-chat
for when we're home, okay?
- Yes, Captain.
- Yes, Captain.
We'll split up. In pairs.
Guzmn, Comillas, with me.
Manuel, Core, upstairs.
Marina and Roberto, boxes.
Let's go.
She's the best option
to replace the major.
Have you known her long?
Since she got back from La Graciosa.
Her daughter died there.
That's why she doesn't
tolerate distraction.
That was a nightmare.
What the infected didn't kill,
the bombings did.
Opera to Orchestra.
There's been some minor thefts
from the pharmacy,
but nothing significant.
Do you have any family?
A sister.
Herminia.
She's my twin sister.
She was with her boyfriend
in a place like this,
but never evacuated to the Canaries.
I still have hope that they're alive.
Although every day
it gets harder to believe, to be honest.
Don't give up.
It's all we have left.
Opera to Orchestra.
Inquiring about the
estimated time of arrival for support.
Orchestra to Opera.
Estimated arrival for support, 30 minutes.
Continue with the assigned procedure.
Opera.
Comillas to all.
Want some wetsuits?
I just found a whole box.
Where are you? I've lost sight of you.
Near the pharmacy, doing some shopping.
On my way.
This is Nightingale.
If you find a game console, let me know.
Look at him.
With his finger in the right place.
I don't think I have to
give you any more lessons.
Leave him alone.
I don't think you'd have done better
on your first day.
This is Core.
Come up and see this, please.
Come on, Romn.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah.
Check out the relics Core found.
It doesn't make sense.
Either this airport
hasn't been updated since Y2K,
or something's very weird.
Opera to Pottymouth.
Requesting assistance
opening the garage door.
Let's see if it starts up.
No way. You've gotta be kidding me.
What is it?
The Internet works.
- What?
- Yeah, the Internet works.
There are so many destroyed hubs
because the bandwidth
must have been reduced.
Telnet. Gopher.
It's like the Internet from 40 years ago,
but it works.
But that's impossible, Core.
There's no electricity.
Yes, there is.
The phone line has its own current.
Does that mean there's
a working telephone switchboard?
It's likely, but surely it's autonomous.
Look, these are chats.
Is there anybody from Madrid?
Madrid - HELP

Maldonado.
Careful they don't catch you.
I'm just working.
I know your boss.
I know what you do for him.
Just don't touch
the important medications.
Tell him that from me.
This too. With the first shipment.
Sorry.
You can't sleep either?
May I?
I'm sorry about your sister.
Thank you.
Is your family okay?
Yeah, I think so.
I think they're safe.
What I don't know is where.
I tried to go with them
when all this started,
but as hard as my father tried,
it was impossible.
I'm sorry.
No, I think it's better this way.
After all the people who were
infected because of him,
I think there's some justice
in his screw-up of a son
not being able to escape.
All I see is a forced conscript
who's doing everything he can
for his fellow soldiers.
Can I confess something to you?
Confession for confession?
I feel guilty
for having spent so much time
hoping that my sister was alive.
And now it's too late
to say goodbye to her.
And that feeling is suffocating me.
You know what? I don't think it's too late
to say goodbye to her.
...Prosperidad neighborhood. This is Mateo.
Prosperidad neighborhood.
Can anyone hear me?
I can hear you, Mateo. This is Laura.
Thank God.
Did you see the lights in the sky?
- It came from Cuatro Vientos...
- Survivors.
...but it's impossible to get there.
Maybe the people at the bullring
can make contact.
They're busy with the infected.
Every day,
they're having more trouble with them.
I know, but we have to get there somehow.
It's been four days since my son...
How much longer he can last?
This is Vicente,
from the telephone exchange.
I saw military planes.
- Jess, Lavapis.
- Mara, Chueca.
This is Core at Cuatro Vientos.
We've come from the Canaries.
Thank God.
My name is Alicia.
We're at the bullring, near the M-30.
A group of neighbors built
this refuge for people in the area.
But we won't be able
to hold out another day.
Our defenses are about to fall.
Be right there, hold on.
Alicia...
Alicia, this is Captain Roco Castro,
of the Spanish Army.
Listen to me. Right now we don't have
the means to get to you,
but we'll initiate
rescue missions shortly,
so, please, don't lose heart, okay?
Don't talk to me about heart.
You should have done this a long time ago,
not left it up to us.
You're just like all those politicians.
You're going to abandon us.
Alicia, do you hear me?
Alicia?
We have to help them, Captain.
The mission is to secure this
and take it with us.
We don't have resources for anything more.
But those people won't last another day.
They just made that pretty clear.
Guzmn, when will we
start searching for survivors?
That's scheduled for
a few months from now, Captain.
We're going to abandon them
just because we're not ready?
We can't do that.
We'll find a way.
Those people built a refuge
for their neighbors.
They're heroes.
Captain, I don't think...
I need to talk to central command.
I'll see if I can send a message
from the plane.
Yes, ma'am.
Attention all personnel.
The government aircraft carrying
Gonzlez-Escalona has landed.
Proceed with reception
and security protocols.
I repeat, Gonzlez-Escalona on base.
At your command, Major.
Status report, Captain.
Sixteen KIA,
among them Major De Luna,
Captain Barrena and Sergeant Cedeo.
The openings in the perimeter fence were
made by groups of survivors
trying to reach the supplies.
There are more than we thought.
Prit?
What are you doing here?
We came to see you.
We missed you.
Tae.
Ask if there's a mechanic available.
Smart kid.
Come on.
Get ready, the new governor
wants to speak with you all.
Gonzlez-Escalona is the new governor?
The Las Palmas demonstration
got out of hand.
There were casualties.
The government put him
in charge of supplies,
as long as he stops rabble-rousing.
Wait.
He's our new boss?
Come on.
Don't worry, I'm not
going to give a speech.
I'm not here today as a politician,
or as a critic of the government,
which is how you know me.
I'm here as just another Spaniard...
who unfortunately knows
what sacrifice is, just like you.
When I learned of your actions,
I thought, I want to be there.
I want to be there helping them.
Helping them raise up Madrid.
Because this airport doesn't just
represent a supply depot anymore.
This airport, right now,
is the resistance,
the courage...
We're on the brink of a civil war.
No one's playing clean now.
These people's lives aren't a game.
I need you to stick with me
here for a while.
Please.
Bravo!
Thank you! Thank you for your service!
We need to prepare double the planes
and three or four helicopters
for travel to the mainland.
We'll speak later. Roberto.
You're Roberto, right?
Sit down, I want to talk to you.
Please.
When the Ukrainian told me
that you were Enrique Romn's son,
I couldn't believe it.
Want one?
No, thank you.
- They're good.
- I don't smoke.
Me neither.
They insist on giving them to me, but
I haven't touched tobacco in ten years.
I don't know if you know,
but I owe your father a lot.
My father?
You know each other?
Quique supported me a lot
when I started in politics.
He's a good man.
The kind you don't meet
very often in politics.
And I think they've been
very unfair to him.
Outside and inside the party. Very.
Do you know where he is?
No.
Although I assume he's still alive.
Look, I'm going to take advantage
of the fact that that
Ukrainian friend of yours is a pilot.
He can take me to see some people.
Good people.
Committed people.
Roberto, do you understand me?
People who know things.
And I'm convinced they'll be happy
to meet you personally.
You want me to go with you?
Don't rule out the possibility
that one of them
may know where your father is.
He may even be there.
Look, Roberto...
This place isn't made
for people like you and me.
You weren't born to be a soldier, son.
Or a smuggler.
If not for Pritchenko,
I don't know what would've become of me.
Tae,
what's happened to you
since the last time I saw you?
Guess I don't want to be a loser
the rest of my life.
Romn.
Go ahead. I'll be right there.
- Sergeant?
- They're letting us go.
We're going to rescue
the survivors from their stronghold.
The new major didn't want to,
but Gonzlez-Escalona
intervened to let us organize
a volunteer mission.
Come on, Romn!
Do you think that guy is trustworthy?
I don't know,
but if he allows us to help them,
what does it matter?
What's wrong?
What's wrong is it's suicide.
Don't you see?
Roberto, they won't last
another day without us.
They need us.
Giving them hope
is the most important thing.
- Will you come?
- I don't know, Marina.
I don't know.
Then let's say goodbye now, okay?
I hope it goes well for you.
Ready. Okay.
Pilar.
Hey, girl.
Captain Castro.
My friend and I would like a ride.
It wouldn't be a bother, would it?
No, of course not.
And thank you for helping us.
It's my pleasure.
Those people need you.
Control Tower to 3-Alpha-7.
Clear to start engines.
Cuatro Vientos tower,
this is 3-A-7 on Platform Alpha.
Preflight checks complete, crew on board.
Wind 250 at six knots.
Ready for takeoff.
May I?
Cleared for takeoff. We're ready.
We have a lot of work ahead of us.
I'm very grateful.
What are you doing here, Luca?
I needed to leave the Canary Islands.
Because of Manel?
I think about him a lot.
I think a lot about the night he died.
You didn't leave his side for one minute.
It wasn't your fault he got pneumonia.
It wasn't your fault that
antibiotics ran out on the island.
Please, concentrate on
continuing to help people.
And you're not helping?
You and I are on very different teams now.
He was very grateful to you.
He trusted you a lot.
I know that when the time comes,
you will do the right thing.
Comillas! Is that your neighborhood?
My mother and sister died there.
I made it out.
They would be very proud
to see what you've become.
Your daughter would be
very proud of you, too, Captain.
It's the animals from the zoo.
We're here.
The noise is attracting them.
Lower it down.
Thank you.
See you.
Last one!
We're ready!
Ready!
No, wait!
I'm going with them!
What?
Wait.
Thank you, Prit.
Do you realize what you're doing?
Those people won't save you!
You're Romn's son!
I can't abandon my fellow soldiers.
I'm not like that.
Right now there are 40 of us.
We were going to bring in more survivors,
but security is about to fall.
We reinforced the barrier
as much as we could,
but we won't last much longer.
From here on in, we have it covered.
You're not alone anymore.
There's a group trying to contain them.
But without firepower, it's impossible.
We can barely fend off the attacks.
Here are the weaker ones.
- Luca!
- On it.
Open the gates! We're coming in!
It's impossible to hold on.
It's all about to go to hell.
We need to shoot from above!
There's access over there!
- Guzmn!
- On it!
We need to relieve the pressure.
Notary!
Get out of there, folks, let's go.
Ready? Fire!
We're fucked! Half the city is here!
- Save ammunition.
- Damn.
We need a plan.
You're in charge.
Reinforce the door!
Roberto!
- Cover me!
- Hurry!
- Come on!
- Go!
Shit! Come on!
Roberto!
Now.
Come on! Harder!
Listen! Listen up!
We need to isolate them and create
a containment area back there.
Can we close off access to the ring?
- The vomitorium?
- Yes.
We were doing that when this started.
- We have to do it now.
- Okay.
They're coming!
- Come on!
- Come on, hurry!
Away from the doors, quickly.
Attention. We're going to open the gates
to blockade the entrance
with a mobile barrier.
We'll herd the ones that get in
toward the funnel and open fire.
Pottymouth, you'll provide cover
from the fence.
Ready.
Core, you'll guide the infected toward us.
Ready.
Opera? Notary?
- Ready.
- Ready.
Status report.
We're almost there. Not much left.
I'll adjust this and I'm done.
Ready!
- Come on!
- Come on, let's go!
- Let's go!
- Comillas!
Ready?
Come on. Here.
Let's go!
Okay. Be good, okay?
Let's go. Come on.
Come on.
Let's go.
Keep it up!
Now!
Ready?
No, keep going!
Come on.
Marina! Fall back, with me!
Come on. Push.
Go!
- Push there.
- Come on!
- Come on!
- Push!
Push! Keep going!
Push! Keep it up.
Shit, goddamn it.
Motherfucker.
Look out!
- Secure it!
- Hold on!
Hold on!
I'll help you.
Let's go.
Come on, get back.
This is Opera! We need help!
Help, please!
Go before I bite you.
Take this.
Let's go!
Out of ammo!
We don't have any ammunition!
They're going to enter the ring.
I'm going to jump.
I need you to close the doors
as I go through.
No! Roberto!
Quickly, the doors!
Hey! Here!
Go! Go! Go!
It's not working!
Get up here!
Are you crazy? Get out of here.
I'm not leaving you here alone!
This is a message to everyone
still fighting out there.
My name is Roco Castro,
I am a captain in the Spanish Army.
Our squadron is protecting
a group of heroes
who have built a refuge at the bullring.
We've cleared the area, raised defenses
and gathered supplies.
Anyone who wishes to can access it
from passageways we are installing
in the surrounding streets.
If you are tired,
alone or simply without hope,
let us help you.
All those who were unable
to reach the Canary Islands at the time
will find a home here.
We will give you shelter.
Whoever you are,
wherever you come from,
here you will be welcome.
Good night, Madrid.
