Full Bible

Jessica teaches nine-year-old Grace safe claim-staking basics in the yard, warns her about bush hazards, and takes her inside as the title appears.

An intoxicated Pete, Billy and Chris arrive at Sam's house, prank the FrenchMobile, and are stopped by Sam before going inside.

Sam gives Pete his pay, confronts him about drinking and driving, and refuses to use his friendship with James Pitt to secure the large contract.

Pete chooses the truck over the prepared spare room and settles down to sleep across the bench seat.

Pete wakes at 4 a.m., strips the bar from a chainsaw, and uses it to start the truck while the FrenchMobile's interior light comes on.

Pete returns to Sam's house as Gabe leaves; the two exchange tense nods while Sam watches from the doorway.

Pete admits he has only Billy and Chris for the job; Sam reveals that he has already secured himself, Gabe, Jessica and camp support, while Jessica and Grace leave for supplies.

A quiet night exterior at Sam's house provides the calm-before-the-storm transition.

Pete arrives at Tillies at night.

At Tillies, Pete drinks with Billy, Chris and Susie, confronts rival Vincent, and accepts Frederick's three-hundred-dollar bet that Pete cannot win the large tender.

Pete uses Tillies' rotary phone to recruit a crew, but Joe, Omer and Frank each refuse him for different personal reasons.

Pete nearly collides with a fast blue car at Pitt Mining, parks among newer vehicles, and steels himself before going inside.

Pete turns in claim tags to Cecile, asks about the large tender, and waits while Marge is asked to print the missing form.

Pete asks mechanic Wil for an hour in Pitt's garage, but Wil refuses because the corporate owners now monitor shop use.

Pete again fails to start his truck in the Pitt Mining parking lot.

Pete parks his battered truck beside a fancy car and a large Cadillac already at Pitt Mining.

James Pitt warmly greets Pete in the mine office and takes him aside to discuss work.

Pete asks James for a chance at the large tender; Frederick joins them and agrees to give Pete a difficult qualifying job first.

Frederick cuts the qualifying-job rates and finder terms, challenges Pete's experience, and gets him to sign while reaffirming their bet.

Pete starts his truck with a chainsaw in the increasingly busy mine-office parking lot.

Pete returns to the battered family work truck, notices the fading company decal, loads his gear, and climbs into the hot cab.

Pete drinks a beer in the truck, reports the completed work to Sam by radio, struggles with the starter, and rejects Sam's chainsaw-start instructions.

Pete drives past the stranded FrenchMobile, refusing to help Pierre and Jacques as they react in French from the roadside.

Pierre and Jacques cannot restart the FrenchMobile, then spot Sam's approaching truck and wave him down for help.

Sam pulls his tidy work truck over after seeing the stranded travellers.

Sam and Jacques bridge the language gap, diagnose the FrenchMobile, and arrange to tow Pierre and Jacques to Sam's house.

Sam's truck tows the FrenchMobile down the highway toward his house.

Pete drives toward Pitt Mining with the rising sun in his eyes.

A multi-location preparation montage shows the team buying food, loading tools and tents, launching Gabe's canoe, and Frederick calling Vincent while Pete sleeps in his truck.

Before sunrise at the Red Roof Inn, the full convoy assembles; Pierre distributes snacks, Pete hands him a radio, and the group departs.

The convoy's different vehicle groups travel through the road trip while Sam, Susie and Jessica tease Pete over the radio.

The convoy continues beyond civilization into the remote woods.

At the claim clearing, Pete maps the work area and the entire crew builds the mess tent, sleeping areas, kitchen and food-storage system before nightfall.

Over dinner, Pete assigns work pairs, revises them after crew objections, uses Jessica to bridge French, and ends with four field teams for the next day.

Outside camp, Pete prays alone until Jessica joins him, encourages him, mentions Jen, and reminds him that Grace stayed home.

The camp settles into silence as a wolf howls in the distant woods.

An unidentified hand slashes the sleeping tent before Jessica returns singing, senses someone in the trees, and continues into the mess tent alone.

Chris is the first worker to return to camp at early evening and enters the mess tent.

As the crew returns, Pierre brings in a dinner triangle and vents about Chris in French; Pete reviews each team's progress, calls Sam and Susie back, and assigns evening camp tasks before leaving again.

Pete gets a flashlight from his truck, notices that something is missing, and heads alone into the woods at dusk.

Pierre splits firewood by lamplight outside camp.

In the mess tent, Sam sharpens an axe while Jessica assembles lunches and tells Jacques in French that Pete is grieving the person he hoped to marry.

Gabe returns to the mess tent, warns Sam of bad weather, speaks Ojibway, and exchanges a joke with Jacques through Jessica's translation as thunder arrives.

Rain begins over the sleeping camp at night.

Morning reveals a soaked camp and large slash marks through the girls' sleeping tent.

Sam is startled by Susie and Jessica in the mess tent and learns that they slept there because their tent was slashed.

Sam steps outside and sees Pete leaving his truck after another night sleeping in it; Pete heads to breakfast in the rain.

Jessica drains water from the tents, inspects the slash damage, and senses an unseen observer who darts away.

As darkness arrives early, water runs out from beneath the mess tent's plywood floor.

Pete returns to the mess tent as an unspecified group is already discussing the worsening situation; the formatted screenplay stops at this beat.

Pete finishes a claim section alone, cuts off Sam's radio call, marks the completed square on his claim map, and keeps working.

Sam realizes Pete has cut off the radio, gathers his equipment, and heads south to finish the job.

After a quick breakfast, the four staking pairs leave camp with tools and radios for their first full workday.

Chris cuts through dense bad bush and criticizes Pierre's tag work as their pairing begins to fray.

Across the woods, Jessica calls the four teams by radio for lunch while Pete tries to keep the channel clear for emergencies.

During a break in the bad bush, Pierre offers Chris a hand-rolled cigarette; Chris rejects it and lights his own.

In the rain-soaked bad bush, Chris grabs a claim tag from Pierre after Pierre struggles to tie it, deepening their conflict.

Sam patiently teaches Susie as they begin staking across a large field.

Jessica carries a portable lunch setup to Sam and Susie, cooks grilled cheese, jokes with them, and returns to camp to make dinner.

Night overtakes the woods after Pete leaves camp.

Continuous rain establishes the woods for the next workday.

Sam and Susie carry gear through the field and decide that wet ground is a reason to pound stakes rather than stop working.

Rain continues over the woods into the afternoon.

Gabe and Jacques work a river claim line while Gabe demonstrates a faster way to tie tags.

While working the moraine, Billy questions Pete about Sam and family; Pete insists the company will eventually be independent.

Gabe and Jacques silently trade sandwich halves during a shaded riverbank lunch.

Billy toasts sandwiches on a cook kit while Pete works, then Pete warns Billy not to pursue Jessica and orders him back to work.

Pete sits alone on the moraine trail at night while Jacques and Jessica's off-screen conversation reveals that Pete and Jen had planned marriage and children.

Gabe and Jacques continue working beside a fast, rain-swollen river.

Pete pushes harder through the rain on the moraine while an exhausted Billy struggles to keep pace.

On the moraine, Billy finally confronts Pete about sleeping in the truck and grieving Jen; Pete says he needs the contract and wants out from under Sam, then shuts the conversation down.
