Good day.
On this day, July 1st 2014...
at this hour, 0600...
we are at the very first airport in the world...
topic of so much controversy over the past 7 years...
has continued development.
Protests from environmental groups and a number of developing countries continue.
It had been claimed The CW7 is the answer to global warming.
And we are witnesses.
Leaders who argue that global warming can no longer be ignored.
Today, 79 countries will began dispersing CW7...
in the upper layers of the atmosphere.
And surprisingly bring down the average global temperature...
It is just a day away that...
According to scientists...
the artificial cooling subtance CW7...
will succeed in bringing average global temperature down to managable level.
As a revolutionary solution to mankind's warming of the planet.
Soon after dispersing CW7, the world froze. All life became extinct.
The precious few who boarded the rattling ark...
are humanity's last survivors.
Bed check.
17 years later A.D 2031.
Alright, get in line.
Everybody sit down.
One, two, three... four, five, six...
Keep going.
Go on.
Hey you, sit down.
Curtis, sit down.
Sit down.
I said sit down!
- What the fuck are you doing? - Counting.
Can't you sit and count? You want to get shot? You're crazy.
Shut up, Edgar. I'm thinking.
Are there any experienced violinist here?
Raise your hands.
Violinist!
Stand up, come forward.
Food, come and get it.
Violinist, they're having a laugh.
Those bastards in the front sections think they own us.
Eating their steak dinner and listening to string quarter.
Will be different when we get there.
I want steak.
Excuse me, sir.
My wife and I played violin in the Boston Symphony Orchestra.
I was first chair.
Can you still play?
Of course, you never forget.
Show me your hands.
You, follow me.
Leave your belongings, we just need your hands.
Both?
Yes, both hands.
My wife Doris plays beautifully. Better than me, even.
They just need one person.
Then I won't go.
Doris, Doris...
Sit down, everyone.
Sit down.
- They can't just... - Sit down.
Those fucking bastards.
Now isn't the time.
When is the time?
Soon.
Doris.
I'll be back, Doris. It's alright.
I'll come back.
What does steak taste like again?
I had it once, but I can't remember.
If you can't remember then it's better to forget.
What does it smell like when it's cooked?
It must emminate around the place.
Curtis.
It's not it.
Sorry.
Curtis, here!
Timbo!
How's it hanging, buddy?
Give me a pow.
Listen.
I think I need that protein block.
How about I trade you, this one for that one?
No.
Nice bargaining power, Curtis. Here, give me this one, I'll give you that...
Relax, relax... Come here, Timmy.
Come right...
I have an idea.
I'll give you this one and that one for that one.
- What do you say? - No.
Go get him.
Timmy!
Timothy, your mom is gonna give you a damn good spanking.
Where the fuck he went?
Hey, come here. Give it to me.
Hi Jose, how are you doing?
Timmy! Work with me here.
Edgar, why did you let him get up there?
No I didn't, he got up there by himself. He's very nimble.
- He's 5. - He's a very nimble 5 year old.
Timmy, sweety come down.
Come here.
What do you want for it?
In the whole wide train?
In the whole wide train.
The ball.
The ball? No.
No, I'm sorry I can't do that. I can't do that.
Yes, the ball for a whole hour.
Done.
Curtis. Is it time?
Not yet, Tanya. Soon.
Red paper?
Yeah, it's the one we've been waiting for.
Our informant gave us a name.
N, A, M...
Nam Koong Min Soo.
He's a security expert. He's in the prison section now.
Wait, you're joking right? He's in prison?
Out of here.
I'm just saying, what kind of chance do we have...
Edgar.
I just think if this guy says that he's such a great security expert...
- why can't he just break himself? - That's enough! Go.
Let's go, Tim.
Come on, let's go.
Edgar just wants to help, you know.
He thinks the world of you.
He shouldn't worship me the way he does. I'm not who he thinks I am.
It's you over us.
Alright, we're here.
Tail section, quarantine section, prison section.
Gate, gate, gate.
4 seconds when all three gates are open at once.
We have 4 second to go through three gates and bust Nam out.
That Nam gets us the rest of the way.
Our fate depends on this man.
Yeah.
If 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 through the front of the train.
Everything in one stroke.
We control the engine, we control the world.
Without that, we have nothing.
All past revolutions have failed because they couldn't take the engine.
What are you saying?
This time we take the engine.
Then what?
We kill them.
Wilford?
You should run the train now, not Wilford.
I am a shadow of my former shadow.
My day was decades ago.
How old is Gilliam?
Shut up, Edgar.
I'm not saying that I want that to happen, that's not what I'm 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'd be pretty good if you ask me.
Edgar.
How far back can you remember?
I do not know, like what?
Your mother, you remember her?
I can remember a face...
every once in a while.
But it's not clear.
Stay down, everybody.
- Everybody stay in your place. - Fucking look at me.
Keep down, keep down.
- Medical inspection. Just the kids. - All the kids come with me.
It's a medical check up.
You're doing good.
Everybody, all the kids.
- All the kids? - You too. - That's right, just come.
Stay back there, ma'am. Just stay back there.
Alright, one more.
Yup, come on.
You need to go.
It's just a medical check up. You just stay back there.
Come on, that's right. Come with the others, okay.
You, go and check.
- Don't move. - Go, Timmy!
Timmy!
That's her baby!
Andy!
Give me back my son.
Give me my son, you fucking bitch!
Andy!
Let him throw his shoe.
- Timmy! - Tim!
At this altitude, we need only 7 minutes.
7 minutes alotted for your speech, sir.
This is so dissapointing.
We don't need all that, we only got 7 minutes.
Passengers...
This is not a shoe.
This is disorder.
This is size 10 chaos.
This, you 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? Jeans? No, order.
Order is the barrier that holds back the cold and death.
We must all of us, on this train of life...
remain in our alloted stations...
we must each of us occupy...
our preordained particulate positions.
Would you wear a shoe on your head?
Of course you wouldn't wear a shoe on your head.
A shoe doesn't belong in your head.
A shoe belongs on your foot.
A hat belongs on your head.
I am a hat, you are a shoe.
I belong on the head, you belong on the foot.
Yes? So it is.
In the beginning, order was prescribed by your ticket.
First bus, economy, and freeloaders like you.
Eternal order is prescribed by the Sacred Engine.
All things flow from the Sacred Engine.
All things in their place.
All passengers in their sections.
All water flowing, all heat rise...
pays homage to the Sacred Engine.
In it's own particulate...
preordained positions.
So it is.
Now, as in the beginning...
I belong to the front.
You belong to the tail.
When the foot seeks the place of the head...
a sacred line is crossed.
Know your place.
Keep your place.
Be a shoe.
We have 42 seconds left.
So we can go to comment of Mr. Wilford,
the divine keeper of the Sacred Engine.
Sir? Mr. Wilford?
Are you there?
Are you there, sir?
It's breaking up. Well...
Mr. Wilford's a very busy man.
So it is.
We're just gonna watch?
- Not now. - I'm not just gonna fucking sit here.
Nah, 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 mesage 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.
Nice to hear it.
Your son will be a hero, I promise.
Or daughter, whatever it is.
I got it.
- Your contribution has been dully noted. - Thanks.
So sorry to interrupt you while you're praying.
So sorry.
There's your Buddha back, thanks very much.
Move! Move!
Stop fooling around.
I've got a better batch.
Stronger, fresh, uncut.
Want to 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've used up Al their bullets 4 years ago on the last revolt.
Bullets are extinct.
If you're wrong, we could be finish before we even start.
I think we should be patient.
Wait for the next red letter.
To the left.
And right.
Not yet, up. Now left.
Good, good.
1...2...1...2... 1...2...1...2...
Hello? Andrew.
Andrew!
Wake-up. Rise and shine.
When you dream to 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 little dark.
If you look very deep into the eyes, you can see a little bit of hope.
What about my boy? You got one of Timmy?
Yes, Tanya. I do.
Easy, easy. Don't hurt yourself.
Here, there you go, Timmy.
Look at him.
One little smile.
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 I'm gonna make that bitch sorry she put a hand on my boy.
Make this one tighter.
You know I'm stronger than all these skinny ass soldiers anyway.
Please.
Shit, what's going on?
Change of schedule, boys. Come to back.
It's now or never.
Don't panic. Stick with the plan.
Hide that, hide your weapons in your clothes.
- Head check. - Yeah.
Line up.
Alright, sit down.
1...2...3... What the fuck do we do?
6...Keep going.
I've had enough of this protein block bullshit.
Yeah, this is bullshit.
- I'm hungry. - I want chicken.
We're not gonna sit down for this shit.
We want chicken! Chicken!
Quiet! Be quiet!
Calm down. It's okay.
You want him dead? Is that it?
Keep quiet.
Still going for it, are we?
Come on, let's go! Let's do it.
The rifles.
No, we can get them.
We're easily outnumbered their bullets.
This is it.
Curtis, come on.
We're out of time, we gotta do it now.
They've got no bullets! They've got no bullets!
Keep going, keep going!
Close the gate quick. 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.
Obviously I work here so...
- Open it. - Here we go.
Kronol head...
So this is Kronol? I hear it's pretty big in the front section.
Careful, that'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 the security systems on the train?
Look at him man, he's gone. Look at his eyes.
He's fried his brain with that fucking shit.
Are you Nam?
Nam, are you listening?
Yes, I'm listening, bastard.
My name is not "Nem", it is "Nam". Namgoung Minsoo, shit.
Namgoung is my name, my surname is Minsoo, asshole.
Unknown words.
Try again with the correct vocabulary.
We need your help.
For what?
We're going to the front.
And we need you to open up the gates.
If I don't want to?
Uncut, straight from the barrel.
Every door you open, you get one lap of Kronol.
Jesus, Marlboro Light?
I can't believe it.
Cigarettes have been extinct for more than 10 years now.
You want a smoke too, asshole?
It's too good for shit like you.
I'm gonna make this real simple for you.
You help us, you get your drug.
If not, we put you back where we found you.
What'll be, asshole?
Chan.
Chan, get out of here. Let's get out.
That's enough.
I'll put you back in the drawer.
Get up.
My daughter, Yona. To move forward, we need her.
So you're coming with us?
For each door, I want two blocks of Kronol.
She's an addict too?
Nobody there.
Kronol?
Look at all these beds. Where is everybody?
Looks like they left in a hurry.
There's food on the table.
This can't be a window, can it?
Still cold.
Dead.
All dead.
Alright, let's go everyone. Stay focus. We didn't come here for this.
You heard the man, let's go. Move.
Nehm... Nam!
Kronol!
How did you know there was nobody there?
He's running.
Paul?
Paul!
What is he doing?
He looks so different.
Just a second.
It's used to be automatic, but it's hard when it extinct.
- It's not the Paul I remember. - No.
Paul? It's Curtis!
They ain't coming back, so now I gotta do it.
Manually.
So that's how it's made.
Still hot.
Look at them all.
You do some nice work.
That's right man, that's your food. That's your protein block.
Is this why they took you? To make this garbage?
Paul?
You've been alone this whole time?
Alone.
In the zone.
We're going to the front. Come with us.
Alright, you're going to the front? Yeah.
But no way, my place is here alright?
Here? Making this crap? Why?
- You can't draw this. - Okay.
Oh man.
All this time, we've been eating this shit?
I eat them too, you know?
Every single day.
Where'd you get this?
Have you been the one writing this?
I don't write them...
Why do you have this? Who gave this to you?
They just leave them for me.
I put them in the protein block, I stamp them on.
That's it.
The water supply section?
Yes, just a few carts up.
It's where the water's cleansed and recycled.
It's one of the most crucial sections in the train.
If we take it, we'll have the upperhand?
We don't even have to go to the very front.
We control the water...
we control the negotiation.
Excuse me, sorry to bother you there, could I
get you a glass of water to speed this up?
Would you get on with it, man? You're keeping us all waiting.
Is it my fault?
You, you are.
Although you've been fucking smelling that thing that...
time is a probably a distant 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 work.
You're the one who's giving me this.
Are you thick? That's what you asked for each time you opened the gate.
Yona? It's Yona right?
How old are you?
17.
17, you're a train baby then?
How about you?
17 years on earth.
17 years in the 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 clarevouyant?
Clarevouyant? What's that?
You always seem to know what's behind the gates.
Do you see things in your mind?
Don't open it.
What?
Stop!
Be careful.
You too.
Team 2, move.
Move forward!
We're passing Yekaterina bridge!
We're at the bridge, guys!
10...9...8...7...
5...4...3...2...1.
Happy new year!
I hate getting old, I hate it.
Everybody down!
Hang on.
Impact!
Not yet. A second one.
Stay down.
Nam, what are you doing? What are you doing?
He's high as a fucking kite.
We're getting closer.
Safe passage.
One, two. One, two.
Happy Yekaterina bridge, you filthy engraged.
You people, who if not for the benivolent Wilford...
would have frozen solid 18 years ago today...
You people...
who would suck up the generous titties 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 a misplaced optimism of the doom.
This is going to be good.
What? What did he say?
He said you guys are fucked.
You should beat those sectioners.
There's a tunnel right after Yekaterina...
A tunnel?
A fucking long one.
What are you doing? Run.
Everybody down!
Go, go, go!
Chan, get out, get out.
Chan! We need fire!
Chan, bring the fire.
Throw them in the back, we're gonna get the lights here.
Chan, the matches.
We will crush you, motherfuckers!
Officer Fuyu!
What are you doing? Don't look at me. Get them.
Put me down, stop squeezing my leg.
Surrender! Surrender!
Surrender, he'll kill me if we don't surrender.
Sure.
Curtis!
Stop!
Stop everybody!
Drop your weapons!
Stop!
Everybody stop!
Do what he says, for crying out loud.
Drop your weapons!
Don't look.
Survivors.
Wash yourselves.
The water supplies section...
Wash away the blood.
Have you seen these kids?
I don't know anything about...
Where are they, you bitch?
I don't know, it's not me.
Tell us or we'll cut your arm you bastard.
Wilford knows.
Wilford likes kids.
He does.
That's why he sent that yellow worm cloth to get them for him.
It's Wilford you want, not me!
Wilford likes kids?
All he cares about is his rachet 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?
You'll only be condemning your own people.
The water come from the front.
The nose of the train, it breaks up the snow and ice and turns it into water.
Like an elephant's trunk.
The water comes in 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!
Mr Curtis, I can help you.
You can fucking die, is what you can do.
No, I can help you. I swear it.
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 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 still determined to push ahead?
Of course.
We're not even half way.
You already go further than anyone else.
Rather 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 routes.
So many have been killed.
We've lost so many.
I know.
You seen our men?
They are exhausted.
I told them to wash themselves...
so I can asess the damage.
Let me go ahead.
I 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 two good arms.
It's faded out.
Better to have both arms...
You can't do a lot with one, you know?
Especially when you hold a woman.
Much better to have two arms, won't you agree?
Well 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 tounge.
Okay, let's all get in there. Squeeze in.
Perfect, perfect.
The hat becomes you well.
Now Grey...
You must go with Curtis.
Forgot somebody.
Okay.
Kronol.
Don't mind me, back to work everyone. Back to work.
Minister, are you okay?
I'm okay.
Please don't eat it...
They're very friendly, they won't bite.
They might bite a tomato.
You can eat this too?
A train baby wouldn't know about this.
I grew up walking over it.
This is located under the snow.
Of the earth.
What is this?
It moves.
Underground.
What does this mean?
Do any of you feel like Sushi?
Hell yeah...
Right?
You people are very lucky.
This is only served twice in a year.
In January and July.
Why? Not enough fish?
Enough is not the criteria.
Balance.
This aquarium is complete ecological system.
And 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 for the restrain for this next section?
I'm not your friend. And why would I?
For the sake of the young?
Education?
Quiet!
Good morning, children.
I'm pleased to present guests from tail section.
Yes, what do we say to tail section guests, children?
Hello, tail section guests.
Timmy!
Andy!
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 and they all drink their own shit.
No, they're very nice.
Very jost and merciful.
So it is.
Minister Mason, we were just about to show a video.
Very good.
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 cruiseline...
connecting railways of the entire world into one.
A circular railway that expands for 438,000 km...
and completes one circle every year.
In the exreme cold of the Artic, and the scorching heat of the African desert...
Wildford's train is self-sustained...
possesses the most sophisticated design...
advance technology...
As hard as it is to believe...
people in the old world made fun of Mr Wildford.
They critized him for overengineering...
and overequipping this wonderful train.
But Mr Wilford knew something they did not.
And what was that?
All world people are frigging morons who got turned into popsicles.
Sort of.
Mr. Wilford knew that CW7 would freeze the world.
So what did the profetic 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'd all freeze and die.
But will it stop, will it stop?
No! No!
Can you tell us why?
The Engine is eternal, the Engine is forever...
Rumble rumble, rattle rattle...
who is the reason why?
Wilford! Yeah!
Wilford Wilford, hip hurray!
I love that one, such a tonic.
It's time children, come this way.
Don't trip now.
Don't push, there's plenty of room.
Who can tell me what's coming up?
Those of 7.
Pay attention, this tablo will surely 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 the 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, you see that?
What?
There they are, that's how far they made it.
You see that woman before?
She was the maid in the lead car.
An Inuit.
An Eskimo, actually.
She knew all about the ice and snow.
She believed she can 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?
Mr. 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 reknowned first chair violinist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra,
Mr. Gerald Mclnster.
Is that really Gerald?
He looks damn great.
Happy new year.
No, thank you.
Let's go Curtis.
Happy new year.
I thought the chickens were extinct.
There are actually many things on board that were rumored to be extinct.
Such as?
This.
Andrew! No!
It wasn't me. It wasn't me.
No.
Curtis.
You have to lead us.
Curtis, my friend, we understand each other...
listen to my words, it wasn't me.
We go forward.
Open!
Quickly!
It's Mason.
Shit, check her pulse.
Hey, don't do...
That does not look good.
It happened.
You've got the master key right?
Wait, don't shoot. Please don't shoot.
You've just killed a front section passenger...
I didn't see a thing.
Where are you going? Wait a minute!
Could we talk about it just one second?
Son of a bitch!
Close the door.
Tanya.
My Timmy.
My Timmy...
We're gonna find him.
I promise.
I know.
Thank you.
Take this.
Come on, motherfucker. You got my Kronol.
I want that shit.
I want my Kronol back.
That's my Kronol.
I swear man, I'm gonna kill you.
Opens the door.
Kronol first!
You want Kronol? Here.
Take it.
Open it! Open the gate!
Are you looking for some trouble or something?
You got a problem with the gates?
Here, smoke a cigarette.
It is a great honor for you.
This is the last cigarette of humanity.
Go enjoy it.
You've ever been to the tail section?
Do you have any idea what went on back there?
When we boarded?
It was chaos.
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 took the baby.
And then an old man...
no relations, just...
an old man.
He 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.
That 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.
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 hate Wilford.
18 years I've waited for this moment.
And now I'm here.
Open the gate.
Please.
Your story is so beautiful, Curtis.
But I don't want to open the door.
You know what I want?
I want to open a door.
But not this one.
That one.
The one that leads to the outside.
We've been sentenced for 18 years.
Everyone thinks it's a wall.
But it's a fucking door.
Open it and get us out of here.
And freeze to death? Are you crazy?
I know...
But maybe we can survive.
You remember Yekaterina bridge?
When we got slaughtered with an ax.
Every new year, I check something.
We see the wreckage of a plane...
under the snow.
For ten years the tail can barely seen.
But now I can see the fuselage and wings.
There is less and less snow and ice.
It melts.
Snow becomes more fragile,
it doesn't take much to get rid of everything.
Recently,
you know what I saw?
Outside, there was...
Drops.
It is not worth telling it.
You gotta take it easy on that Kronol.
That bullshit is gonna fry your brain.
You don't think I'm right.
Kronol is the first...
highly flammable chemical.
A spark and boom!
Basically, it's a fucking bomb.
I not only store these to get high,
but to blow that gate.
Matches, quickly.
What are you doing?
Give it to me!
Take that off the door.
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 vermint 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 close ecosystem.
We must always strive for balance.
Air, water, food supply, population.
It must all be kept in balance.
For optimum balance, however there'll have been time when more...
radical solution would 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 predicted your counter attack with the torch at Yaketerina?
Pure genius.
That wasn't what Gilliam and I had in our plan.
What?
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 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.
Wait.
Spare 18, to celebrate our 18th year.
It's an excellent idea.
Your people.
Goddamnit Claude. Mind the Engine!
She's getting sensitive recently.
Sit down and mind your table manners.
Relax.
Calm down.
Now I can see what Gilliam meant, he told me you were brilliant and clever.
But 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 okay?
What? What happened?
Get down.
Yona.
We must open this door.
You see those cables?
There are so many cables.
Die!
Bastard!
It is easier for someone to survive on this train...
if they have some level of insanity.
As Gilliam well understood...
we need to maintain the proper balance of anxiety and fear...
chaos and horror in order to keep life going.
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, number 8.
No, 7.
Come with me, Curtis.
Something I want to show you.
You deserve it.
Come on.
She's waking up now.
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.
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 percisely 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! No.
No bullets?
Get the Kronol then.
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, matches.
Curtis! The match!
The space only allows for a very small person.
Young children under 5.
The engine lasts forever but not to all of it's parts.
That piece of equipment went extinct recently.
We needed a replacement.
Thank goodness the tail section manufactured us a steady supplies of kids.
So we can keep going manually.
Fucking bastard!
Yona...
Take the fire.
Only one left.
Critical engine shutdown.
Okay.
Please stand at safe distance.
Andy? Is that you?
Andy!
Do 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!
Goddamnit Andy, listen to me.
Curtis, don't be so melodramatic.
You know everyone has their own preordained position.
Nice.
Dad!
Dad...
Curtis.
Stay here.
