[Barbie] Three weeks ago, an invisible dome crashed down
on Chester's Mill, cutting us off from the rest of the world.
The dome has tested our limits.
-[screams] -Go!
Pitting us against one another.
[Big James] Chester's Mill sentences Dale Barbara to death.
[Barbie] And forcing each of us
to confront our own personal demons, rage.
I need to know that you will stand with me against that!
[Barbie] Grief.
[Joe] I don't understand who could do this to her?
I promise you, we're going to catch whoever did this.
-[Barbie] Fear. -We're trapped.
[woman] I hear we're going to run out of water.
[clamoring]
[screaming]
You killed Angie McAlister.
[Barbie] Shame.
I thought it would bring the dome down.
I would do anything to take it back.
[Barbie] But we've also found love under the dome.
[muffled explosion]
And we have battled to keep our town together.
I thought the dome was supposed to protect us.
No, it's up to us to protect each other.
[Barbie] Now we may finally have found a way out.
We hope it takes us home,
but what if it takes us to an alternate reality?
[Big Jim] It's some kind of energy source.
-That egg needs to go now. -[gasps]
I need you to trust me. If we stay here, we die.
-All of this is your fault. -What are you doing, son?
-You're not leaving this town. -You don't tell me what to do.
I can't make it.
-I'm coming back for you. -I know.
Junior!
Junior.
Everybody follow me.
[gasping]
[deep rumbling]
-Melanie? -We're going home.
Follow me.
We're going home.
What do you mean, going home?
It's time to move on.
-Melanie. -Barbie.
We can't leave Julia.
Julia said it was up to me to lead everybody out.
So you're just gonna leave her here?
She knows that I'm coming back for her.
Look, it's like she says.
Sometimes you just got to take a leap of faith.
Into nothingness.
-[deep rumbling] -[gasping]
Looks better than staying in here.
All right, let's go.
Everybody stick together.
Joe!
Norrie!
Melanie!
[Melanie echoing] We're going home.
It's time to move on. Move on.
[woman 1] Where are we?
-[man 1] How did we get here? -[man 2] Where are we?
[woman 2] Everyone here?
[man 3] I know.
[man 2] I have no idea.
-You okay? -[man 3] I'm fine.
Hey, where's Melanie?
I don't know.
I-I didn't see her.
Did you hear her voice?
-[high-pitched tone sounding] -[people groaning]
[man 2] What is that?
[low murmuring]
We're outside the dome.
-[explosion] -[people exclaiming]
[exclaiming]
[crackling]
-[whooshing] -[people grunting]
[low murmuring]
[Joe] Oh, my God, it's gone.
Julia.
Junior.
Julia!
[crying]
I'm here.
Just like I promised.
I came back for you.
[crying]
Hunter, Jawbreaker 2-3, we're less than a klick out.
Got you covered, boss.
Got a drone over the location,
no activity in the surrounding area.
[quietly] All right, on me.
Everybody remember we're running a standard exfil protocol.
Intel has those hostages guarded by a small group
of insurgents.
All right, that door's our entrance point.
That's where they're holding 'em.
[explosion]
There's no one here!
Target's a ghost!
Yeah, I got ten hostiles coming your way,
they came out of nowhere.
[gunfire]
[grunting]
You're good. Catch your breath. Hunter, talk to me!
Rooftops are clean.
[Barbie] Let me know if that changes!
[gunfire continues]
[grunts]
[cries out]
Drop it!
Drop it! Drop it!
-[shouting in foreign language] -Now, get down!
-I surrender! -Get down!
I surrender, okay?! I surrender!
Thank you, sir. Thank you.
For what?
Aah!
[groans loudly]
[screams, breathes heavily]
Shh, shh.
I got six rounds in this magazine.
All of 'em are dummies except for one.
-[cries out, panting] -[clicking]
Wasn't those.
Where's the hostages?
I don't know.
-I don't know. Aah! -[clicks]
[casing clatters on floor]
I'm only gonna ask you two more times.
If you're lucky.
-[panting rapidly] -[clicks]
[crying]
Where's the hostages?
-I beg you... -[clicks]
Last chance.
Okay, okay, okay.
I tell you. [panting]
T... Textile factory.
Guards.
Five. Six-six.
[clicks]
[casing clatters on floor]
[laughs]
You play games, huh?
[laughs]
W-Why, why? I tell you.
No!
[man 4] You got provisions ready to move?
[man 5] Yes, we do, sir.
[man 4] Got two more units heading down, sir.
Watch your step, ma'am.
[continues indistinctly]
Like Steven Seagal in his aptly-titled 1990 classic,
you are hard to kill.
Oh, trust me, it ain't from lack of trying.
[man 6] I'm glad you're back safe. Drink later?
No, man, I'm beat. Another time?
Yeah.
Hey,
I don't know how to thank you.
Ah, just doing what you hired me to do.
Yeah, well, hiring you might be the only good decision
I've made as operations manager here.
Ah, it's a tough job, trying to make the world a safer place.
You know, my part's easy.
Just stop the bad guys from making your job harder.
Occupational hazard.
I'm gonna go get cleaned up.
You want to talk about it?
Talk about what?
Whatever you had to do to save my people, it was worth it.
Mm-hmm.
Dale.
You don't have to hide who you are.
I want it all, good and bad.
You sure about that?
Sometimes I don't know what side's gonna come out on top.
I know.
[phone buzzing]
[Eva] Who's it from?
[Barbie] Joe.
Again.
Don't you think that you should text him back?
[clears throat]
I think we should get some sleep.
Julia!
[panting]
[crying]
I'm here.
Just like I promised.
I came back for you. [crying]
[panting]
You were saying her name again.
[sighs heavily]
I'm sorry.
Don't apologize.
It was traumatic, what you went through.
But you've been having this dream for almost a year now.
Maybe it'd be a good idea for you to go back
to Chester's Mill for the memorial.
So you can move on.
[breathing heavily]
Barbie!
[Julia echoing] Barbie!
Where are you?
Barbie's not coming back for us.
He will. You'll see.
You heard that rumbling.
Maybe the tunnels caved in on them.
-Maybe everyone's-- -Shut up.
I don't want to hear it.
We need to get across, find out where they are.
They can't be far, they were just in front of us.
If something's wrong, we'll help them.
All right.
How?
[grunting]
We can get a ladder at the school.
Pick up some flashlights.
What is it?
My father.
Jim's not the priority right now.
We need to get the supplies and get back here, fast.
Great.
Flares?
Just in case.
In case we get lost at sea?
[sighs] Let's go.
[slide racks]
Cat get stuck up in a tree?
Should've killed me while you had a chance, Junior.
Jim, you've got to let us go.
[Big Jim] Oh, yeah? Why's that?
You got a hair appointment?
[chuckles]
Them roots are looking a little tired.
[scoffs] Will you just let us go?
If you were gonna kill us, you would've done it already.
Kill you?
Who said anything about killing you?
We are the only ones left.
I may need you.
For repopulation.
Why'd you need the ladder?
I said, "Why did you need the ladder?"
Okay.
I got nothing but time. [chuckles]
It's like that old Twilight Zone episode, remember?
With, uh, Rocky's manager.
The Penguin. Wh-What's his name?
Um, uh, Meredith.
Yeah.
And he-he's all alone after the Apocalypse,
and all he wants to do is read.
[chuckles]
And then he breaks his glasses.
[faked sobbing]
I mean, talk about a tragedy.
We need the ladder to get across a rift in the tunnels.
That's where everyone went.
We need to get across and find them.
Find Barbie.
[laughing]
You still believe, don't you?
That the dome is good, that...
that it's here to protect us.
If you still believe that, then you're even dumber
than the bag of hair I took you for.
The dome is here to destroy us.
It killed them all.
Barbie, all of them--
-they're all dead. -No.
You're wrong. He's alive.
Cut him loose.
Go on.
You're gonna end up dead as the rest of 'em.
This is my town now. What's left of it.
And that's the last bit of charity you're gonna get.
If by some miracle you make it out alive,
you best stay well clear of me.
'Cause if I see either of you two again,
I won't be so merciful next time.
Go on.
Hey, Junior.
-[gunshot] -[grunts]
Now we're even.
[gasping]
[people talking nearby]
Yeah, I don't remember it looking this perfect.
You okay?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Can we grab a bite somewhere? I'm starving.
Yeah, I think I know a place.
[bell tinkles]
[low chatter]
Is that Barbie?
This place is full.
I think we should go somewhere else.
Anywhere you go, there's gonna be people who want to see you.
You might as well face it.
And I got to use the facilities.
Oh, me, too. Tiny bladder plus a long car ride equals--
You're not finishing that sentence.
Barbie!
Hey. Joe.
It's good to see you, bud.
Good to see you.
Oh, look at you. You're getting taller on me.
It's been a year.
Yeah. I know.
I was worried you weren't gonna make it back.
I'm sorry for going... incommunicado. You know,
I went overseas and then...
I-I should've stayed in touch.
I'm just glad you're here.
How you holding up?
I still think about Angie all the time,
especially now with the memorial and all,
but most people lost somebody, right?
You lost two people.
Julia and Melanie.
Uh, so what about college?
Did you... have you made any decisions?
[Joe] Uh, yeah. Well, um, I'm still waiting to hear back
-from a couple places. -Good.
The Great Barbini. Welcome back, man.
Yeah.
Uh, ready to jam?
Oh. Yeah.
We'll catch up at the memorial, yeah?
-[Barbie] Yeah. Sounds good. -Okay.
-It was good seeing you. -Yeah, you, too.
[door opens, bell tinkles]
[birds chirping]
[branch snaps]
Whoa.
Easy, dude. Didn't mean to spook you.
What are you doing out here?
After what went down at the diner,
you know, I thought I'd come and find you.
Why? What went down at the diner?
Aw, come on, man.
Don't play.
You saw Melanie, too.
Melanie's dead.
[Ben] Is she? In the tunnels,
she says we're going home and then she disappears.
Where'd she go?
I'm not in the mood to deal with this right now.
You haven't been here!
Ever since that day, ever since the dome disappeared,
things have been different,
off. Like-like, remember my asthma?
To be honest, Ben, I remember very little about you.
I had asthma!
I used to have to carry my inhaler everywhere.
Now asthma's gone.
My-my uncle, worst drunk you ever saw.
Clean and sober, like poof.
And beyond all that, everyone's acting weird.
Everyone's getting along, all kum-bah-yah.
Everyone's talking about moving on and whatnot.
You saw her, man.
I know you saw her.
Okay, and what if I did?
Why is it just the two of us?
I don't know!
But now I'm off all my meds, and my head is clear
for the first time in, like, forever.
Come on, man!
What? Come on, what?
What do you want from me?
To admit that you see what I see.
Okay, what do you see, Ben?
That none of this is real.
Hello.
My name is Sam,
and I'm an alcoholic.
I haven't had a drink in just about a year now.
And I want to say, it's been a blessing
having the support of this group.
Before I got here,
I wasn't much for what you'd call "group think."
But the 12 steps...
got me back on the path.
Never would have happened
if I hadn't got sent here a year ago.
Strange to say it, but this place has been good for me.
This lawyer...
got in touch with me recently.
He told me there had been some kind of screw-up
in the chain of custody
with the evidence related to my case.
He told me that if we appeal,
it's possible we could get a new trial.
I could be a free man.
But...
I have to make amends for what I've done.
That's the step I got to focus on.
Making amends,
to those I've wronged.
And then...
maybe I can move on.
[girls laughing]
Is it bad that I'm missing the pin ceremony?
I feel like I should be here.
And the post-game tomorrow and,
Nors, there's gonna be so many post-games.
And just so you know, if it gets rough at this memorial,
if you need to talk about anything, you call me.
I'm here for you.
[laughs]
All right, little sis.
Are you ready for your pin?
You're one of us now.
[laughs]
[sighs]
You got your pin!
How does it feel?
It feels great.
I think it's just what you needed.
Finding your group in college is important.
To be part of something that is bigger than yourself.
-[phone whooshes] -Not to mention,
you don't seem so angry anymore.
What is it?
Joe hasn't been texting me back.
It'll be good for you to see him as friends.
Are you questioning your decision?
To break things off? No.
But I just wish he wasn't being so high school about it.
And I wish he could see that it's not so scary, moving on.
That's why it's important for you to go to the memorial.
To pay respects to your mother, of course,
but also to show Joe,
there's a way forward, out of grief.
You'll talk to him.
[phone whooshes]
What are you doing in my room?
[Christine] Your mother let me in.
You've blown off our last few therapy sessions.
So what?
What do I need therapy for anyway?
I'm making straight A's, I'm working hard.
I know you are, which makes me wonder
why you'd want to throw all that hard work away.
Acceptance letter to Cal Tech.
That's the best engineering program in the country.
Why haven't you responded yet?
I'm going to.
I-I just...
I haven't gotten around to it.
Tell me the truth.
Are you reconsidering the plan?
No. No, I-I... I just...
[sighs]
I've been wondering if this is the best time
to leave Chester's Mill.
My parents are still dealing--
Your parents don't need you, Joe.
[sighs]
No matter what you do,
staying in Chester's Mill
won't keep her alive.
It's up to you, of course, but I think it's important
that you speak at the memorial about Angie.
All the feelings that you've repressed since her murder.
The sorrow, the guilt.
It might help give you the closure that you need
and allow you to take the next step.
Your sister wouldn't have wanted you to hold yourself back, Joe.
She would have wanted you to move on.
Please, just think about it?
I'll see you at the memorial.
[panting]
[loud panting]
[grunts softly]
[groans]
Long way down.
"Long" doesn't quite cover it.
I'll go first.
[sniffles, grunts softly]
[both panting]
[grunts softly]
It's Big Jim's, just in case.
In case I get challenged to a knife fight?
[both panting]
[panting]
It bit me!
Keep going.
[Julia groans]
Julia?
[gasps, panting]
[groans]
[groaning]
[grunting]
[groans]
[yelps, panting]
[panting]
[grunts loudly]
[panting]
[yells]
[groaning]
[grunts loudly]
[grunts]
[panting]
Junior?
[panting]
Junior?
[door opening]
Did you speak with him?
How are you, Sam?
I'm well.
As well as can be expected.
Day by day, you know?
I do. That's good to hear.
I haven't spoken to Joe about it,
and I know that disappoints you.
But the dome coming down, your trial,
all the emotions that Joe has kept such a tight lid on,
it's understandable why he's expressing them now.
Try to be patient?
What are you thinking?
That I really want a drink.
Well, it's good there's not a bar around.
Oh, you think there's no options in here?
[laughs]
You'd be amazed by the options.
You don't need a drink, Sam.
What you need... is to forgive yourself.
I don't know if I can do that.
Not if Joe can't forgive me.
And what if he doesn't?
You did a terrible thing, Sam,
but that one terrible thing doesn't have to define you.
The lawyer that I sent to you,
he told me that you wouldn't appeal your case. Why?
Because I deserve to be here.
You were an EMT before, yes?
Well, from my experience, no one goes into that line of work
who doesn't have a deep desire to help people, heal people.
If you appealed and you were released,
think of all the people that you could affect.
You know the memorial's today.
Of course.
If you'd spoken to the lawyer,
he might have been able to arrange a short furlough.
I'd never be welcome there.
Maybe you could write something.
Something I could read later.
Then at least you'd be a part of the memorial.
Perhaps it might help you make amends.
I need to speak to Joe.
[Christine] And you will.
But Joe has to be ready to hear you, and...
I don't think he is just yet.
I'm ready when you are.
[Woman] Glad we came?
Yeah, I am.
It was a good idea.
Excuse me. Are you Dale Barbara?
Yes, ma'am.
Christine Price.
FEMA sent me here after the dome came down.
For what?
I'm a trauma specialist.
I help communities recover after,
shall we say, stressful events.
I tried to reach out to you after I arrived,
but it seemed you'd already moved on.
I guess I didn't see much of a reason to stick around.
Well...
if you ever feel like talking, I'm at your disposal.
I'm Eva. I'm here with him.
-Eva. Christine. -[Hunter] I was here
for the stressful events.
Does that mean you're at my disposal, too?
Anytime.
Oh, almost forgot.
Would you care to say a few words today
about Julia Shumway?
Y-You know, I'm not really much for, uh...
for public speaking.
All right.
[phone buzzes]
I wish you wouldn't do that.
Joe.
I've been trying to get in touch with you.
[Joe] Why?
I thought you were all about getting some distance
or whatever.
That doesn't mean I don't still care about you.
They asked me to talk about Angie.
Are you going to?
I don't know.
I don't know what to say...
except that she was a good sister.
She could be tough,
but...
she looked out for me.
I just wish I could have looked out for her.
[Big Jim on tv] Jump, Junior!
I can't!
[Big Jim] Yes, you can! Stop being a fraidy cat!
Be a man!
Be a man.
[Junior on tv] Dad, I want to get down!
[Big Jim on tv] You don't jump, you don't come home tonight!
[Junior on tv] Dad, where are you going?
Come back!
Don't leave me here!
Nothing good on television these days, anyway.
[groaning]
[panting]
[Julia] Junior! Junior!
[panting]
Hey! Hey!
Over here, you bastards.
[groans loudly]
Junior?
A year ago, the people of this town
were delivered from the dome.
But some of you, many of you, also suffered a great loss.
Of friends.
Of family.
After a shared tragedy,
there's nothing that provides more consolation
than a sense of community.
Those lives will never be forgotten,
and their memory will be preserved in an eternal flame
here at the monument.
A memorial is about moving forward,
moving on, together.
To that effect, I'd like to read
a brief epigraph from someone who couldn't be here today.
"Make a way in the wilderness,
and do not remember the former things
or consider the things of old.
For when you walk through fire,
you shall not be burned,
and the flame shall not consume you."
Is there anyone who would care to speak first?
Uh, I wasn't planning on saying anything today,
but a lot of you knew my sister,
Angie McAlister.
Some of you knew her as a waitress at the Sweetbriar.
Some of you knew her as a volunteer down at the clinic.
Me...
I just always knew her.
And she was so full of life, you know?
[sighs]
It's hard to accept that...
that she's gone,
to say good-bye,
to lose someone that you love the most.
And it's hard to move on, but...
I'm trying.
[quietly] I don't know what to...
Joe here,
he was one of the first people that I met
when I came to Chester's Mill.
I was a stranger to him, to all of you.
He made me feel like I belonged.
First time I felt that in a long time.
The people of Chester's Mill opened their hearts to me.
And that, I think, allowed me to open mine.
Especially to a woman named Julia Shumway.
What can I say about Julia?
She was the bravest woman I ever met.
She was endlessly curious.
She was, quite possibly,
the most stubborn individual to walk this earth
in its four billion or so years.
She was loyal.
She always had your back.
Always rooting for the underdog.
And she couldn't help it.
She just... she never lost her faith
in the basic goodness of humanity.
Like Christine here said,
even though Julia
and-and many of your own loved ones are gone...
they'll never be forgotten.
I think it's important to learn that we can both remember
and move on
at the same time.
[gasping]
Ben!
-Somebody help him! -Ben!
-[gasping] -[Joe] I'll call 911.
-Is he okay? -[Eva] Is there a doctor here?
Someone call an ambulance.
Where's his inhaler?
Why doesn't he have it?
He's choking on something.
[Joe] Ben! Come on, man!
[choking]
Breathe. Breathe. Breathe.
It's time to move on.
-[Joe] Come on, Ben. -[exhales]
[grunting]
[panting]
I'm sorry.
Oh, my God.
[shuddering breaths]
Joe.

Sam.
