[bunniefuu]

NARRATOR: On this night, those who reside

at the great house of Collinwood are safe,

but near the Collins' estate in the town of Collinsport,

there is one whose life is in danger.

For a chain of events have been set into motion

and they will end in a burst of violence

and a sudden death.

MAGGIE: Willie, Willie!

- I had to come back here. - Did Joe do this to you?

WILLIE: Yeah, he was mad, real mad.

MAGGIE: I don't care how jealous he was,

he had no right to do this.

No right at all.

Maggie, I ain't gonna be able to make it back

to the old house on my own.

- You're gonna have to drive me back. - Yes, of course, Willie,

but not while you're still bleeding.

I'll get some antiseptic and some bandages

and we'll fix up that cut--

ADAM: Willie.

- You. - Who are you?

What do you want?

ADAM: Willie bad!

Willie, who is he? What does he want?

WILLIE: He wants to k*ll me!

- Willie bad! - No!

No, stay away from him!

No!

Bad!

[THUD]

Stay away from him, I say, stay away!

No!

- [SCREAMING] - No!

- Don't hurt me. - Adam, Adam!

- Let her go. - Please.

Adam, let her go, she never did anything to you.

MAGGIE: You're hurting me.

What?

MAGGIE: My shoulder, you're hurting my shoulder.

Adam hurt?

Willie, who is he?

What does he want?

WILLIE: Never mind, get to the phone,

phone for the police.

He'll stop me, Willie.

No, he won't, he doesn't know what a phone is.

- Now get to the phone. - How do you know--

WILLIE: Shut up and just do what I'm tellin' ya to do!

All right.

Operator.

- Operator! - No!

MAGGIE: No, no!

[SCREAMING]

Adam, Adam, Adam! Look at me!

Look at me, not at her, look at me!

Yeah, it's me, it's Willie.

- Willie hurt Adam! - I didn't mean to do it now, Adam.

- I didn't mean to do it. - Willie hurt Adam!

No, don't hurt him! He's already hurt!

Look at his face and the bruises.

Willie is hurt.

Willie hurt.

WILLIE: That's right, Adam, I've been hurt tonight.

You don't need to hurt me no more.

Please let him go.

WILLIE: You don't wanna hurt me, Adam.

I can help you, Adam, I can do things for ya.

I can get you food like I did the last time.

- You remember that, Adam? - Food?

That's right, Adam, and you need food, remember?

- Adam needs food. - Adam needs food.

Yeah, that's right.

I can get that for you if you just stay right here, Adam,

right here and I'll get you some food.

[SHOUTING]

Jewelry, you got some jewelry?

What?

WILLIE: You got something bright and shiny?

- Yes. - Well, get it, get it!

Come on, come on, give it to me, give it to me.

Give it to me!

Hey, Adam, lookie, I got something for ya.

See how pretty they are, huh?

Aren't they bright and shiny?

Willie, somebody's coming,

- it might be Joe. - Or your father?

No, he's at the Blue Whale,

he can't come home until I go and get him.

- Hello, darling. - Pop!

Saved you a trip into town, Hinkley dropped me home.

Pop, don't come in, don't come any further.

SAM: What's going on?

Pop, there's a mad man here, a maniac.

What?

MAGGIE: Willie Loomis is here with me.

He tried to k*ll Willie.

Oh, no, what is this man like?

Describe him to me. Is he very tall?

MAGGIE: Yes, but...

Uh-huh, I know him.

- You know him? - Yes and he won't hurt me.

Adam, Adam, come here.

Pop, he's insane, he'll k*ll you.

No, he won't. It's all right, Maggie.

You don't know what you're doing!

Pop, you don't know what you're doing!

No!

No!

What is it, Maggie, what's going on?

- What is it? - No!

- [ADAM SHOUTING] - What is it?

k*ll!

SAM: What's happening?

- He's trying to k*ll Maggie! - What's going on?!

Maggie, Maggie, get behind me.

- Oh, Pop. - Do as I say, get behind me!

Adam, Adam, you remember me.

Don't you remember? You remember who I am.

I'm your friend.

Now, you wouldn't harm me, would you?

You do understand what I'm asking you?

- Friend. - Yes.

I wouldn't harm you, so you mustn't harm me.

- Friends. - Good, now, now.

Now, repeat after me.

- Maggie. - Maggie.

SAM: Maggie is my friend.

Maggie is...

- No! - Adam.

ADAM: Maggie, k*ll Maggie!

Adam, repeat after me!

- k*ll Maggie! - No, no!

MAGGIE: No, Pop, no!

Pop!

[GRUNTING]

[THUD]

Pop!

Oh, Pop, oh, Pop!

ADAM: Adam afraid.

Afraid.

[MAGGIE CRYING]

The doctor will be here in a few minutes.

MAGGIE: He hasn't opened his eyes,

he hasn't even moved.

I'm so frightened.

Maybe he's just unconscious, maybe he'll come to.

Why hasn't he? He hasn't even moved.

He's dying, I just know it.

My father's dying.

[CLOCK TICKING]

Almost two, Maggie, you better get some sleep.

MAGGIE: I can't sleep.

Here, the doctor gave me these pills for ya.

You gotta take 'em.

I don't want pills.

I can't sleep, I just wanna be with Pop.

It wouldn't do you any good, there's nothing you can do,

they told you that.

If he dies during the night, I wanna be there.

Come on, now, he ain't gonna die.

He might, he may never come out of that coma.

Hey, come on, don't talk like that, huh?

Just tell yourself he's gonna be all right, eh?

Come on, take these pills, get some sleep.

- All right, Willie. - That a girl.

I'll come back tomorrow if you want me to.

Good night.

- Willie. - Yeah?

Who was that man? That maniac?

WILLIE: I don't know anymore about him than you do.

But you did know him, Willie, you knew his name.

You called him Adam.

Well, yeah, I know, I mean...

I don't know much about him. I've just seen him around.

What does that mean?

WILLIE: It means I've just seen him around.

- I don't believe you, Willie. - Why not?

Because of the things you said about him.

You talked about giving him food and he knew you.

You knew how to calm him down

and he thought that you were gonna hurt him somehow.

I can explain that.

I'm listening.

You see, he came to the old house a few times.

The old house?

Well, I mean he came to the door of the old house

and he wanted some food.

He was hungry,

so I gave it to him a few times, you know?

Then one day he came to the old house

and he asked for food, I wouldn't give it to him

and we had a fight.

That's what he meant when he said I hurt him.

And after that?

WILLIE: He disappeared,

I never seen him again until tonight.

- And that's all you know about him? - That's it.

Well, Willie, I think you're hiding something from me.

Now why would I be hidin' something.

I don't know, Willie, but I mean to find out.

Why?

MAGGIE: Does Barnabas know at all?

Barnabas, no, look,

he ain't never seen that man before.

- I'm going to speak to Barnabas anyway. - Why?

Because I think you're hiding something

and Barnabas may know what it is.

Look, that's not true.

Besides you can't speak to Barnabas 'cause he disappeared.

Disappeared?

I mean, he left town, on business or somethin',

I don't know and nobody knows where he is.

Well I'm going to find that man, Willie.

I'm gonna find out who he is and what he is

so that the police can catch him

and punish him for what he did to Pop!

Now Maggie, look, why don't you just do yourself a favor

and save yourself a lot of trouble

and forget about all this, at least for tonight.

Just try to get some sleep.

All right, Willie.

But tomorrow morning,

I'm going to be asking the same questions

and I'm gonna want better answers

than I've gotten tonight.

JULIA: This house is so silent.

Where could Willie be at this hour of the night?

And Barnabas, where are you?

Where?

You couldn't just disappear.

Something must have happened to you.

Something terrible, but what?

What?

[WOMAN CRYING]

Sobbing. A woman sobbing.

Where's that sound coming from?

The basement.

Seems to be coming from the basement.

[GASPING]

[EERIE MUSIC] ♪♪

[WOMAN CRYING]

Dr. Hoffman.

JULIA: Willie, where have you been?

- He's alive. - Adam?

He jumped off Widow's Hill

and somehow he managed to survive

- and he's done something terrible. - What?

Broke into the Evans' cottage tonight

and he may have k*lled Sam Evans.

Oh, no.

Evans is in the hospital now

and they don't know if he's gonna live or die

because of what Adam did and he tried to k*ll me

and he tried to k*ll Maggie Evans.

Then the police are searching for him again?

Yeah, but we've got to find them before the police do.

Well, how, how can we?

We got to, don't you understand?

He knows more words now

and if the police start asking questions,

he's gonna get us into a lot of trouble.

I don't know what to do.

If only Barnabas were here.

Don't you understand? We gotta do it on our own.

We gotta k*ll him, that's what we got to do.

I suppose he must be destroyed.

I didn't want to admit it before

but he can't go around attacking people.

Look, I kept saying it all along,

he ought to be k*lled

and finally even Barnabas agreed with me.

Willie, you haven't seen or heard anything

about Barnabas, have you?

You have no indications

- of any sign of anything from him? - No.

JULIA: Where he's gone or anything?

He couldn't have just disappeared into thin air.

There's no way of telling where he is.

Something terrible has happened to him.

[WOMAN CRYING]

What's that?

The sobbing.

Who is it, what is it?

[WOMAN CRYING]

It's comin' from down here.

There's nobody here!

It stopped.

I expected it would.

I don't like this, I'm gettin' out of here.

- No, Willie, wait. - What for?

I know who's sobbing

and she must be sobbing for a reason,

and the reason must have something to do with Barnabas.

What are you talking about?

I heard the sobbing before.

I was alone in the house and I came down here

and huddled against that wall, I saw a ghost.

WILLIE: A ghost?

The ghost of a woman

and she looked like the portrait of Josette.

- Josette? - Yes, she was grieving.

There's only one reason that she would grieve,

for Barnabas.

But why here?

Why did she choose to appear in this place?

WILLIE: Well, I don't know!

JULIA: She was huddled against that wall.

That wall.

Hey, Adam scares me but this scares me more.

- Now come on, let's get out of here. - Willie.

WILLIE: What?

Willie, when did you brick up this wall?

I didn't brick up any wall!

When did you do it?

When did Barnabas tell you to do it?

I told ya, I never bricked up a wall.

- You didn't? - No.

- Then who did? - Well I don't know.

Trask.

WILLIE: What?

Trask said he wanted revenge.

We thought he meant revenge against Angelique,

but he must've meant against Barnabas.

Look, I don't understand a word you're sayin'.

Barnabas walled Trask here.

If Trask wanted revenge,

then he would probably do the same thing to Barnabas.

If that's true,

then Barnabas is behind that wall.

What?

And he's been there for three days

and he's probably dead.

Willie, go get some tools,

we've got to break down that wall.
