Finally! Dawson put down the book when he heard the key turn in the latch, and waited patiently for the door to open. A tall hawk-nosed man with a receding hairline and horn-rimmed glasses scanned the room methodically, then sat down at the end of the table and placed his briefcase in front of him.
“Good evening, Doctor Dawson. I trust you’ve had a nice dinner. I’m essentially in charge of your care while you’re with us. I’ll also be in charge of your…interrogation, if you will. My name is Adrian.”

This picture/wallpaper was made with the idea of a "Starting to bleed" scene, with still not much blood on it and Oskar scared (more like in the book), but I think it could fit in a post-bleeding scene too. Whatever you prefer. Hope you like it!
The text says "Let me in" in spanish.

“Okay, Sava. What have you got for us?” Rich motioned to Elaine, who immediately climbed out of the pool, grabbed a towel and headed for the porch.
“Are you coming back, Mama?”
“After the meeting, Eli. I won’t be long.” She dried herself off, slipped on her sandals and sat down at the dining room table. Livia, Nils, Jonathan, and Jack were already seated.

Sava jumped to his feet, golden eyes blazing. “Back off, or I’ll…”
“You’ll what? Overpower me with your pre-victorian intellect? Awe me with your superior historic perspective? Or just squash me like a bug!”
“Jack, stop it!!” Richard grabbed his arm. Elaine rushed over and stood between them.
Jack jerked his arm away, brushed past Elaine and lunged for Sava, but he was brought up short by three pairs of eyes staring at him uncomprehendingly from the stairway.

Chapter 16: The Hilltop

Alvirez helped Owen drag Abby's body to the top of the hill. There Owen unwrapped the tarp in which they had carried her, exposing her precious, broken form. The horizon was just beginning to lighten. The boy had until sunrise to change his mind.
Owen began stroking Abby's hair and caressing her face. He seemed numb, calm even. Too calm. Alvirez had witnessed such behavior before, could guess what it meant. The boy had decided to join Abby in death. The agent didn't think Owen had reloaded his gun. He was probably planning on burning.

“Okay, Jonathan. What have you and Jack found?”
“Hannah, like the rest of you, has had regular blood tests, since her injection. We have verified that she was immune the day after Eli was shot, when we were all given blood tests. Within just four days, she was no longer immune.”
“Well that certainly narrows it down. But what could have happened in just four days that would wipe out her immunity?” Elaine thought about those four days carefully. “Where was Hannah during that time, Livia?”
“Mostly at your house, Elaine. As usual” she smiled at her.

"What is hope?" Owen asked over the satellite phone.
"It's one of the three core virtues in the Bible," Alvirez explained. "Faith, hope, and love. Faith is concerned mainly with the past, believing that God has performed certain specific acts in history. Hope is concerned mainly with the future, believing that God is going to keep his promises. And love concerns the present, the way a person lives given what God has done in the past and is going to do in the future. Your mom's religious. Any of this ringing bells?"
"No," Owen said.
