Strand is the man with the plan and that plan is San Diego. Potentially blossoming love is at its best when it is born out of the apocalypse. Ofelia declines but Nick passes on a few tips, most importantly that vodka helps, which makes Ofelia smile. Nick bumps into Ofelia, who is nursing a gunshot wound, and offers his assistance in changing the bandage. Travis watches from another part of the ship, perhaps a tad jealous.

Nick returns and after a fancy kill involving the small boat’s propeller, the whole family (including the dead mom) leaves the burning city behind them.
