Dave!

Stay awake.

Katie. Katie

Stay awake.

I'm sorry.

With me

With me

All my life, I've been

afraid to go to sleep.

Whenever I lay down

to close my eyes

that's when

the nightmares begin

and lately,

they've been getting worse.

What did you bring me?

Nothing.

Check your pockets.

Give that to me.

g*dd*mn, Dave.

Whoa. Hey, yo.

You--

You good?

Yeah, I'm gonna get you

a first-aid kit.

Yeah

What the hell?

Oh, come on,

let's get you up, man.

Ow!

Man, don't be a little b*tch.

It's just a paper cut.

You know

you're lucky it's not worse.

Oh, man,

I was having the craziest dream.

Was I saying anything

in my sleep?

sh*t, I don't know.

I mean, you were mumbling

about some elephant,

and then you scattered

your pills all over the floor.

Really?

Yeah. You smashed the glass

and fell a*s backwards, man.

You want to see?

No, I'm good.

N--

Look.

Oh, sh*t! Your a*s--

Whoa!

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Hey, look,

just because you can't control

what you do in your sleep

doesn't mean the rest of us

can't find it hilarious.

Ah, you got me there.

What even is that crap?

Just your standard

anti-psychotics.

Whoa, hey, bro.

What? I cleaned it.

Nah, just be easy

with that stuff, man.

You're not supposed

to be popping them

like they're tictacs?

It's just a temporary thing.

I'm still

I'm still having trouble

sleeping alone.

Don't worry about all that--

because we gonna get you

laid tonight.

That's right!

Look, we are going to that

rich kid's party, all right?

And you are gonna hook up

with the first chick

that's into

weird half-Asian dudes

with a deep, smooth,

sensual voice.

Was that a compliment?

And I'm not doing that.

Listen.

Let's just leave now.

What? Because we'll get fired.

They have cameras.

They'll see us leave.

Nobody watches

that footage, man.

Hey, Daxalabs!

It's 3:00 a.m.,

so you can lick

my chapped as*h*le,

'cause we out!

Come on, Davey boy, let's go!

- No.

- Come on, man.

I hope you brought

your party clothes!

I didn't.

You're tuned in

to the smooth sounds

of Late-night Larry.

Nah, dude, you've known about

this party all week--

and this is

what you chose to wear?

- Yeah?

- Nah.

Ain't nobody gonna tickle

your pickle lookin' like this.

I don't want my pickle tickled.

All right, Cinderella,

now to the ball--

let's go.

Whoo-hoo!

Hey

I haven't slept

in, like, 36 hours.

I think I'm just gonna bail

on the party tonight.

Yeah, I don't think so, bro.

I'm really tired.

We both know that's bullshit.

You don't ever sleep, Dave.

You comin', man.

No excuses. Let's go.

Matteo, it's--

It's just--

Katie might be there

So?

Just hit on another girl, man.

Make her jealous.

I'm not gonna do that.

I get it, okay?

You still got feelings

for the girl,

but what's it been?

Three, four weeks

since she ghosted you?

She didn't "ghost" me, okay?

She just

she said she needed some space.

Oh What a saint.

Hey!

A'ight, I'm sorry.

I know you got

your own sh*t going on,

trying to get a handle

on your sleep condition

and all that,

but, you know,

guys who came back from combat--

even the ones with PTSD--

they-- they tried, okay?

They went

and they saw their friends,

they went to bars,

they got laid.

That is how you get better.

Take it from me.

Let's go to this party.

Let's turn up!

I'm not gonna promise that.

It's gonna be fun, all right?

All right, you night owls,

don't fall asleep just yet.

We got another tune

drifting in to your mind's eye.

Hey, how do you know

this kid again?

We went

to high school together.

sh*t.

Man, I knew

we should've left earlier.

Whole thing done.

Oh, I know that's not

who I think it is.

Dave Torres!

Is that you?

That's me.

Dave in the house!

You know homeboy?

Unfortunately.

Yeah. Hey, Connor.

You missed one hell of a party.

Randy's already passed out.

Hey, my man,

there's more coolers

in the fridge.

A'ight. For sure.

Can you get me one?

Yeah, thanks.

This is my man, Gus,

right here,

from Huntington Beach.

Sup?

Yeah.

How's it going?

How you been, man?

How you livin'?

You workin'?

Uh

Yeah. Yeah.

I'm workin'.

We just got off our shift.

We're

night watchmen at Daxalabs.

Daxalabs!

That's a big-time bodyguard

right there.

- Big respect. Big respect.

- Thanks.

You know, it must be

tough, though,

with your mental illness thing

you got goin' on.

What?

Yeah, no, he's diagnosed

with the craziest sh*t, bro.

- What?

- What's wrong with you?

What's it called

There's nothing wrong with me.

It's just parasomnia.

Paras--

yeah, yeah, that.

That right there.

The craziest sh*t.

Back in high school,

this dude used to be

the biggest freak I knew.

We all thought he was nuts.

One time,

we went to this party, bro,

he passed out,

pissed his pants,

woke up screaming,

and started bashing his head

on the floor.

They had to take him

to a mental institution.

Oh!

You were dating

sh**t, what is her name?

She was just here.

Uh um

Katie!

Right! Right! Katie!

She was

that junkie girl, right?

That's the one!

Hey!

Don't call her that.

h*, h*, h*, h*.

That was snappy.

No, you don't call her that.

You don't know

what she's been through.

Bro, relax.

Relax, bro, relax.

Relax, relax.

You don't want to have

a little meltdown here, bro.

Connor--

Yeah, you don't want to have

a meltdown here, bro.

- Hey! f*ck!

Whoa. Damn, my bad, homeboy.

You did that

on purpose, didn't you?

Nah, actually,

it was an accident.

Like how your moms

accidentally gave birth

to a douchebag like you.

- Whassup?

- He's a funny guy.

Whassup, homie?

You want--

- f*ck!

- b*tch!

Oh, sh*t!

You okay, man?

Guys!

Oh, sh*t! sh*t!

Yo, you okay?

Move, man.

Hey, back up, back up.

Give him some room!

Tony?

Yo, he good?

- He's not breathing.

- Oh, sh*t!

- He's not breathing!

- What the f*ck?

What the hell did he take?

Nothing.

He just smoked weed.

Well, someone call 911!

Can't be my phone.

Man, this--

Oh, God!

Come on, come on,

come on, come on.

Yeah, I'm just getting

a busy signal.

- What?

- We gotta roll.

911 was busy!

I don't know!

Randy!

Where's Randy?

He's upstairs,

passed out with Alisha.

Hey, Matteo, take over for me.

Oh, sh*t.

Yo! Hey! I know you're not

trying to roll out like that.

Hey, man, you're good.

I can't be here.

I got a misdemeanor.

Hey, y'all

some b*tches, man!

- You got this, though.

- f*ck!

Randy!

Randy, you gotta get up, man.

Tony hit his head real bad.

He might--

Randy? Randy?

Hey!

Randy!

Hey, Alisha.

Hey.

Matteo!

Hey, Matteo!

sh*t.

Matteo, there's gas!

There's like a gas leak

or something, I don't know!

What the hell

are you talking about?

Randy and Alisha--

they're not breathing!

- What?

- They're not breathing!

So what are we supposed to do?

Well, we gotta take them

to the hospital.

Are you out of

your g*dd*mn mind?

This looks so bad, bro.

It doesn't matter!

We've gotta help 'em!

Oh, f*ck. Take his arms.

Get his arms.

- Yeah, yeah.

- sh*t.

sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t.

- Watch his head!

Okay.

Hey, you've reached Katie.

Leave a message.

Katie, it's me.

Listen, if you took anything

at the party tonight,

you have to call 911, okay?

I'm not accusing you

of anything,

but if you did,

it might have been laced

with some pretty bad sh*t.

Call me back.

What kind of party

did you bring me to, man?

I brought you to?

You brought me to the party!

I didn't want

to go to the party!

Where the hell is everybody?

I don't know.

- Hey!

Hey!

We got an emergency here!

Y'all, we need some help!

Hey!

What the hell's going on?

I don't know.

Excuse me!

Hey, we need some help!

What the--

Hey, yo!

Yo, we've got an emergency.

I mean, this is an E.R., right,

so I'm assuming you know

about emergencies.

Come on.

We have three people

in the back of our car.

Dead people!

Wait, three?

Yeah.

Hey, Brit!

What's up?

I need you a minute.

- Let's go!

- Yeah.

You just found them like this?

One of them

was on a couch,

the other two

I found them dead.

Okay.

We'll have to notify

the police.

You'll both

have to stick around,

answer their questions.

You can wait in the lobby

until they arrive.

And the bodies?

We can lay them out

on the sidewalk.

You want us to just dump

three cadavers

on the side of the road?

That's what you want?

There's no need

to raise your voice, sir.

Ma'am, those were our friends.

All right?

We just want to know

what's happening.

Where is everyone?

Why were there bodies

in the hallway?

What the hell is going on?

Look, sir,

we are severely

understaffed tonight.

Okay? And we have lost

several patients,

so your cooperation

would be greatly appreciated.

Let's go.

Wait. Hey

Where y'all goin'?

Y'all gonna leave us with this?

What kinda

bogus-assed hospital is this?

Let's get this sh*t

over with, man.

It's hard.

It's Modafylyst.

Stay awake,

stay alert,

stay alive.

Modafylst is the modern drug

Please.

Stay off the leg.

the central nervous system

to generate brain activity

in tired individuals.

It enhances alertness

and mitigates fatigue

I hope you don't mind.

It helps him sleep.

Oh, no, we good,

as long as you give us some.

I'm playing with you.

or brighten their moods.

Are you tired of nodding off?

It's all you, bro.

Okay, let's shut

our eyes for a few minutes.

Say goodbye

to that old medication

and get Modafylyst.

It just doesn't make any sense.

- There he is.

- Dr. Gordon

Dr. Gordon!

Where are you going?

I've ordered the staff

to go home.

In the middle of a Level 1 MCI?

Linda, I don't know

what this is.

I can't get Dr. Laghari

on the phone,

or anyone from the board.

All the emergency lines

are down.

We've tried the CDC, the FBI.

We can't reach anyone.

Okay, but Santa Mira

is the only hospital

in 30 miles.

We can't just shut down.

If you want to stay,

I won't stop you.

I need to check on my family.

Jesus Christ, Gordon,

we need a doctor!

We've lost seven patients

in one shift!

I'm sorry.

sh*t.

Uh-uh. No.

Don't even ask.

Please?

Will you stay?

I've been working

since yesterday morning.

I know, but the shift change

hasn't come.

and there's nobody else, Brit.

It's just us.

This is a nightmare.

I know.

I need a ten-minute nap.

That's all I ask.

Thank you!

I owe you.

Wake them up, Dave.

It's Modafylyst.

Stay awake.

Stay alert.

Stay alive.

Hey, I think your dad is--

Oh, sh*t!

Hey, we need some help!

Hey, nurse!

We were just waiting

and-and they collapsed.

Oh, sh*t.

That's when she died
